I get it now.

The "Truth" of the Goblin Cat
was you all along!

I understand.

You are the "Truth" behind
the Goblin Cat.

Tell me the story.

What difference would that make?

What do you mean?

The beast can't
be held back anymore.

Soon I will

be killed by it.

I don't care whether or not
you are killed.



The fact is that
I have to cut the beast down.

To do this I must know
your story!

Tell me!

You are the creator of the beast.

You have an obligation to talk!

Obligation?

I was merely looking to
entertain myself.

Being thoughtless for my age,
I was just going to scare her.

The Final Act

Yo, yo, at midnight evil spirits stalk

As if they're from another world

Come to rhyme rhymes

Can you hear them? The sounds
resonating from the darkness

Scared senseless, but you
pretend not to be interested



Your curiosity grows day by day

So let's go check them out,
here we, here we go ya'll

The mysterious and dangerous evil spirits

Hell is probably full with evil spirits

Those that can't get in march in a line

Waiting on stand-by in this world

There aren't any spaces left for them

No wonder, no matter what the
season is, it's always hot

Purposely heating you up with hot verses

That make you sweat

You might as well let us hear you all sing!

HA! It's just like a scene of a fire

The excitement in the air
heats up this island country

DANGER! The tension
keeps building COME ON!

(This Japan is about to explode!)

HA! It's just like a scene of a fire

The excitement in the air
heats up this island country

DANGER! The tension
keeps building COME ON!

(This Japan is about to explode!)

If the girl...

If Tamaki...

- Please don't take her!
- Have mercy!

If she had screamed...

She hardly put up a fight.

It was as though...

She leaned in

toward me.

Even if I had sent her home,
it would not have gone well for her.

So I dressed her in
lavish kimonos

and fed her
the finest foods.

It was the least I could do.

I had believed that our days
would go on forever.

I took her in the prime of her life.

I can only imagine
her regret and remorse.

So you're suggesting that
the girl's grudge

possessed the cat

and became the Goblin Cat?

- Incredible...
- Elder master...

It's likely that

her spirit couldn't bear to see
a bride leaving this household.

And of course

a woman's grudge
is incorrigible indeed.

You say it like it doesn't
concern you! You bastard!

Bastard?

I only did what I was told!

I did nothing wrong!

Nothing wrong at all!

Everybody was using me
for their own convenience!

You figured I'd do anything
I was told!

You abused your authority!

That's so cruel!

Cruel! Cruel! Cruel!

Cruel! Cruel! Cruel!

Master Odajima!

Yes!

What is it?!

What's missing?!

Elder master!

- Is it the "Truth?"
- Ms. Sato!

Ms. Sato!

- Ms. Sato!
- You're making a fool of me!

- Ms. Sato!
- They're all making a fool of me...

- Let's go!
- Making a fool of me...!

Master Sasaoka, open the door!

Please open the door!

Master Yoshikuni!

Master Yoshikuni!

Yoshikuni!

Yoshikuni!

Yoshikuni! Yoshikuni!

You're always mocking me
with those eyes!

You're going to hell,
that's for sure!

Yoshikuni!

Kayo! I'm coming...!

- You...!
- Elder master...!

You are going to protect me.

The "Reasoning" of humans

and the "Reasoning"
of demonic spirits

are entirely different.

I beg you!

I beg you!

Please! I beg you!

I beg you!

Please!

Please! Do something!

If Odajima

is asking for my help,

I have no choice.

With the "Truth"
and "Reasoning"...

This sword...

shall be released!

What?!

Is this...

Something you are showing me?

This is how it should be!

You should all die!

There, there...

There, there...

Kitty, kitty... Good boy...

Good boy.

No!

Help me!

This is

the past.

Please show us the story
to the end.

I come here after a long absence
and I see that

they have

made themselves

a den.

If you're not going to eat,
I won't bring you any more.

Keeping you alive isn't free.

Kitty?

Oh, right.

Well, well.
So you suddenly decided to eat.

You certainly are disgusting.

Eat some more.

Kitty... Kitty...

There, there... Eat all you want.

There, there... Good boy.

Good boy.

Don't make

any noise.

Father's been wondering what
to do with you lately.

Poor girl.

- Kitty, kitty. Good boy.

- Kitty, kitty. Good boy.
- You may be...

- You stay there...
-...dead soon...

Yoshikuni!

Father!

When did you do this?

A lowly, country girl
seducing my son!

It sickens me!

It's inexcusable!
Inexcusable!

Inexcusable! Inexcusable!

Inexcusable!

What are you trying to do?!

You lowly beast!

Run

- Hold it!
- Run to the outside world.

Kitty, kitty run...

My sweet, sweet

kitty, kitty.

You must live on your own.

Good-bye.

Allow me, Sasaoka,
to take care of the rest.

Goblin Cat...

Your "Truth" and "Reasoning"

I have taken to heart.

With your "Truth"

and your "Reasoning"

I release the sword!

Release!

I understand what you're capable
of as I've seen you in action.

It will not work against me.

You are not destined to belong
in this dimension.

I will exorcise you!

Forgive me!

Vanish!

The colors of flowers that
are embedded in the sky

My love that changes shape

Eventually even when
I have to let go of all

I will only think of you

On a random spring eve

We exchanged our first kiss

Wrapped in a dreamlike state

I will only think of you

Entrusting all that I am to you

I will finally lay to rest

I don't think he'd want to
be laid to rest in this house.

Better to lay him next to Tamaki.

I hope he can be happy
with Tamaki this time.

This house has come to an end.

All that I've protected for years,
everything...

I wasn't deceiving you

I've told you the truth.

You're right,
this is your "Truth."

You've been protecting it.

You should take a good look.

What will you do now?

Where are you headed?

That's not something
you should be asking me.

That's something you should be
asking yourself, Master Odajima.

I...

I think I'll go back
to my parent's home.

I can't stay here any longer.

As for me...

No.

I'm not trying
to suggest anything.

No one has the right to restrain
or order another around.

Hey! Medicine peddler!

What happened
to the wedding today?

Over here... Over here...

Kitty... Kitty...

This way.

This way... This way...

I noticed that nobody's left
for a while now.

Perhaps.

The End
