Fushigi Yuugi OVA

"The Universe of the Four Gods"

Miaka! Hurry up! It's about to leave!

We're fine! We're fine!

Uh-oh... Whenever she starts running with a bag...

Safe!

All right! That's my little sister for you!

No NORMAL idiot would run into a wall!

Okay, I'll get you peeled off from there.

Oh, great... Why couldn't we get separate seats?

It's so fast! Miaka! Would you look at all this?!

Uh, Tamahome? Could you maybe take off your shoes?

Yui really wanted to come with us.

She said her fever was down, too.

Tamahome, I'm done eating now, so let's talk!

She always tries to push herself, so you have to be firm with her.

Oh, really? Did you tell her not to come?

Huh? Well, uh...

The four of us were on our way to Morioka once more...

... this time to visit Suzuno's grave.

Nobody can stop us now.

Now take this kiss from me.

All I want is to confirm our love a little more...

...before the night gives way to dawn.

All it takes is a single look up to the stars above me and...

...the blue lights of night envelope everything.

And I know that my heart...

...more than I think it might...

...will be filled up with warm feelings.

...will be filled up with warm feelings.

If only one of my wishes can somehow reach you...

...then send my heart as well.

Nobody can stop us now.

Now hold me as tight as you can.

Let both our hearts be carried away...

...before the night gives way to dawn.

...before the night gives way to dawn.

Suzuno... Across time and space...

They died at the same moment...

Even if Tamahome hadn't appeared in this world again...

... I probably would have ended up like Suzuno.

What's wrong, Tamahome?

N- Nothing. I just felt like somebody called my name.

Sorry. Must have been my imagination.

While we're here, why don't we visit Takiko's grave as well?

Takiko Okuda. The Priestess of Genbu.

Grandma's father and Takiko's father Einosuke Okuda used to be friends.

That's why you took care of Miss Suzuno all this time, right?

Even though we're not even related.

My grandpa fell in love with Suzuno.

I assume you mean your real grandfather, right?

But if you're here, that means he must have had kids...

...so if he produced your dad...

...that means you have another grandma somewhere in there, and...

It was a ridiculous real-life love story.

Tamahome?

There it was again... Calling me.

Are you all right?

Maybe you're tired from riding on something you're not used to.

Hm? Of course.

Too much fun for you, huh?

Big Brother!

Big Brother!

Here it is.

This is Takiko Okuda's...

Yeah. Along with her father Einosuke.

I am the Priestess of Genbu!

Help me! Help me, before I disappear completely...

The Priestess of Genbu...? But why...?

No... No, please...

Tamahome...

NO!!!

Yeah, he vanished. Yeah, it was that light.

Yeah. Right now.

I'm with them right now. This is driving me crazy!

Keisuke...

Yui thinks the same thing.

For some reason, Tamahome's been sucked back into that book.

I'll get into that room soon and have the book by the end of the day.

But even if you go there, it's the middle of the night.

Just leave this to me.

Cool, dashing thieves are all the rage nowadays, right?

Miaka isn't eating?

She wandered around in the rain without an umbrella for 2 hours looking for him.

I couldn't even watch her.

Here!

Let's go over what we know again.

First of all, the book didn't burn up.

Right. Einosuke Okuda wrote that...

...he tried all he could to burn it, but couldn't.

That's why he asked for it to be sealed away.

I don't think he just tried to burn it...

...but probably also tried everything to make it disappear.

So somebody stole it and then set the fire.

The timing's too close, too. It happened this morning!

If they were after the book...

...they wouldn't have to have set a fire, would they?

I'm wondering if someone else knows about the book besides us.

And if they open it up, will they be pulled into the book like before?

Ew, gross!

The phone! I have to call Toki!

What is it? What's gotten into you?!

A fifth priestess...

Yeah. I was thinking of calling you, too...

I knew it...

What about the records on Takiko? Anything show that she existed?

I'll check them again tomorrow morning. Along with that grave.

What's going on here?

All four priestesses have appeared in the story, right?

That ended "The Universe of the Four Gods," didn't it?!

This isn't king of the mountain, you know!

You can't just push in and say "Outta the way, I'M the new priestess!"

Why does poor Takiko have to disappear?!

So... So, as new priestesses enter the book...!

It'll happen to Yui and me, too...

Where am I...? Konan?!

Then I've returned to the book?

Why?

Miaka must be worried about me.

I'd better get back fast. But why am I back here?

And did the others come with me?

Um, e- Excuse me. Where...?

Of course. I'm dressed like a foreigner.

Miaka... Is this what it was like for you at first?

Rekka Shinen!

Pretending to be Tasuki...

Chichiri... His Highness...

Of course! Empress Houki! The palace!

What? One of the Suzaku Seven?

Yeah. I want to see Empress Houki. And His Highness's son.

His Highness's son? You mean Emperor Boushin?

I'm Tamahome. Hotohori's... One of Emperor Saihitei's companions!

What?! Tamahome?!

Tamahome, one of the legendary Suzaku Seven?!

He's returned from the other world!

The Prime Minister is bringing him here now!

Inform the prince! Hurry!

We've brought him, Your Highness!

I welcome you. Come closer. Closer, I said!

Y- Your Highness!

Don't worry! Great Celestial Warrior...

I've heard how you seven saved Konan.

And how Tamahome journeyed into the other world as well!

You look just like the legends say you do!

Your Highness, we still don't know if he really is...

Silence! You don't trust my judgement?!

Emperor Boushin...

Celestial Warrior, my name is Gyoushiku. I'm Boushin's grandson.

Grandson?!

Yes. The Celestial Warrior Hotohori...

...Emperor Saihitei, was my great-grandfather.

That much... That much time has passed?!

Your Highness, how long... How long has it been since then?

Emperor Saihitei died 50 years ago.

The shrine of Suzaku?

Yes. There we keep the holy relics of the Suzaku Seven.

There's no better place for you to tell me about...

...all your adventures till now, Lord Tamahome!

Come on! Come on!

Y- Your Highness! Don't run on ahead!

I haven't seen Prince Gyoushiku so excited in a long time.

It's thanks to you, honored Celestial Warrior.

Here! See? The holy relics of the Suzaku Seven!

Everyone's...

What the...? Why was...?

Who are you?!

You use the name of the Suzaku Seven...?! YOU I MPOSTER!

Imposter? Me?

Wait, please! No! I'm...

Silence! You think the shrine would repel one of the Suzaku Seven?!

If the holy light of Suzaku blocks you from it...

...then you're an imposter!

Take him away! Hurry!

Take him far away from the shrine of Suzaku at once!

Hit him! Hit him harder!

Drive the lesson to never try such a stupid trick again into his body!

Do you know just how serious your crime is?!

To build up the prince's hopes and then dash them like that?!

I'll make sure your body pays for its crimes!

No... I swear... I'm one of the Suzaku Seven!

I'm Tamahome!
