Nodame Cantabile: The Movie I (のだめカンタービレ 最終楽章 前編)

I can feel it.

The descendant of the demon slayers of Amakawa.

The hated one.

That feeling...

It's time.

Good morning.

Wait here, Ranmaru.

Good morning, Yuto-kun!

It's morning. Wake up!

I need him to understand the happy privilege...

...of waking up to my cute voice.

Hey, wake up!

Wake up, Yuto!

W-wait, Yuto.

H-hey, where are those hands going?

No, Rinko isn't this heavy.

Ranmaru, go!

Cat and Girl and Allergy

You're mean.

You're really mean.

Who drops a cat on the face of a person allergic to cats?

It's retribution for hurting the feelings of a girl.

That had to be at least a five centimeter crack.

That doesn't sound like much.

Anyway, you usually just leave me alone.

Why not today, too?

I didn't want you to be late on your special day.

My special day?

Yes. Isn't it today?

Happy birthday, Yuto.

Oh, right.

Which means today's my parents'...

Oh, sorry.

Of all days, the same day...

It's fine. It happened seven years ago...

...and I have you.

Besides...

...I have this.

Is that the charm you got from your grandmother?

Yeah.

Huh? That's weird.

Holding this used to make me feel really tense for some reason.

Are you Yuto Amakawa?

Who are you?

You've become rather handsome.

But what about your confidence?

Um, excuse me...

We're going to be late! Good bye!

"Next, Korechika shot his bow, but he hesitated..."

Well, Korechika shot his bow next, but...

Who was that girl?

She seemed to know me.

She was pretty.

What are you spacing out for, Yuto?

Let's get lunch, too.

If we don't hurry, there won't be any seats left in the cafeteria.

Taizo, sorry.

Shall we go?

Hey.

Hey, Kuzaki!

What?

Nothing!

Another lover's quarrel?

What am I going to about those two?

Well? Are you done searching your memory?

I don't know what you're...

Don't play dumb!

I'm talking about the girl from this morning. You know her, don't you?

The thing is, I don't.

Quiet, you!

Don't tell me she's your secret fiancée.

Of course not. I have no idea who she is.

But Yuto, you don't remember much about your childhood.

Yeah, but...

Maybe your grandfather or grandmother from the countryside arranged for you to get married.

Grandpa and Grandma?

Come on, that's ridiculous.

Is it really?

Yes.

Don't you think you're getting a little close?

What?

You seemed happy enough when that girl got close to you!

Taizo!

Wait, Masaki-kun.

We weren't doing anything weird.

I found you, Matsue.

I thought you went to the cafeteria.

I'll slaughter you and eat your liver!

Liver?

Oh, right. Today's lunch special must be liver and chives stir fry.

Amakawa!

What is that?

This can't be normal.

What's wrong with him?

You don't even know your own strength, boy!

I'll show you our ancient hatred!

I can't let you do that.

You're...

It's that succubus from this morning!

You intend to stand in my way?

He is my prey.

W-wait.

It's futile.

There's nothing you can do.

I'm going to kill him.

Get out of my way!

I only draw my blade against Ayakashi!

I only slay Ayakashi!

Interesting.

Show me what you can do!

Of course.

Wait! He's my friend!

Wait, what? What is that?

More, please.

What on earth happened today?

That mysterious girl showed up...

...Taizo went crazy...

...and...

Well, whatever.

I'll worry about it tomorrow.

Going to sleep so soon?

What's wrong? I'm not a monster.

Uh, but...

You don't need to hold back...

...if this is what you want.

W-wait.

Hold on! Can't you explain to me what's going on?

Very well.

Why are you undressing me?

It's wilted.

This charm was charged with self-defense.

Until now, it had protected you from much harm.

Grandma's charm?

However, its effectiveness has wilted.

Starting today, you will attract Ayakashi like the one today.

It is your destiny.

Ayakashi?

But my destiny...

Do not worry.

By an ancient vow, I will protect you starting today.

Actually...

...even without the vow...

...I would never leave my younger master's side.

Master?

Hey, wait.
