02x22 - Repose of the Soul's Light

Post by bunniefuu »

The second wish...
The Lady Yui asked Seiryu...

...to separate the Lady Miaka
and Tamahome forever.

However, the love the two
shared crossed space and time...

...and Tamahome was caused to return
to the real world with the Lady Miaka.

How...?
How can Tamahome be here?!

Between the two of them,
gentle time passes...

We've got a while before
I'm supposed to meet Tetsuya.

Why don't we k*ll some time?

This is what I've dreamed of for so long.

Tamahome and l,
meeting in this world.

The two of us on a Sunday date,
walking slowly, arm in arm...

Like a normal couple.

All right!

It was a dream I never
thought would come true.

But now it's real.

In here, right, Big Brother?

Yeah.

No shadow...

Where's Keisuke?

He said he had to use
the phone. Over there.

Order something for
both of us, okay?

Who'd you call?

No one.

I just wanted to tell you something.

What?

Okay, just stay calm
and hear me out.

When we open "The Universe
of the Four Gods"...

...we may be able to
send Tamahome back...

...but I don't think you
can go with him, Miaka.

Excuse me. Have you decided
what you want from the menu?

Um, do you have
any Pao Zu?

Or Hwa Zjen or
maybe some Mantou?

Um... This isn't a
Chinese restaurant, sir.

Uh-huh... Right...

Okay, this.
This..."benicha" tea...?

Do you want lemon
or milk in that?

What're those?

Why? What do you mean?

Yui's second wish to Seiryu...

...was for you to never
go into the book again.

No way! But... I...!

Tasuki and Chichiri and Mitsukake
and Hotohori and the others...!

I said I'd help
them all fight!

I know it's tough,
but look at reality.

You aren't the Priestess of
Suzaku in the book anymore.

You're a middle school senior taking her
entrance exams in the real world now!

The mirror...

I'm not casting a reflection...!

No... It's not fair!

You mean I can never
see the others again?!

I... I don't know, but...

The real problem is Tamahome.

What is?

I don't think he can live
here in the real world.

Maybe because he's a two-
dimensional character from a book.

But...!

I think he has to go back into
"The Universe of the Four Gods."

And I think he knows that, too.

Miaka?

I don't want him to... No...

I don't want him to!

Miaka...

Why? I don't want him to!
I don't want Tamahome to leave!

Miaka... Listen to me.
You're a real person.

Haven't you noticed? He doesn't
cast a shadow in this world.

He doesn't exist anywhere in reality.

He was made up in a book.

Tamahome... You heard?

What did he mean?

Tamahome...

I was...made up?
It's a joke, right, Miaka?

You're just a
character in a book!

What Yui said to me...
Aren't l...? Aren't I real?

Aren't you and I both human?

Not just me...
Tasuki and Chichiri...

My father, my brothers
and sisters... My whole world...

You're telling me we're
all just made up in a book?!

Tamahome! Wait!

What's the big idea?!

Tetsuya!

Keisuke. Sorry I'm late.

- We'll talk later!
- Hey!

Tamahome!

Tamahome!

Tamahome...

Take one, please? Here you go.

Take one, please? Here you go.

You're telling me we're
all just made up in a book?!

It's not true, Tamahome...
You all exist.

I know it. You're all alive...

Yui...?!

I finally found you, Miaka.
Where's Tamahome?

Yui!

Lady Yui asked you where
Tamahome was, Priestess of Suzaku!

Suboshi!
What are you doing here?!

That's... The ribbon off
of our school uniform...

I gave it to him when
we were in the book.

He used it as a
medium to come here.

Yui, why...?

I told you, didn't l, Miaka?

I won't allow you
and Tamahome to be happy!

You can't go back into
the book ever again.

Now all that's left is to
make Tamahome disappear.

Yui, wait! Listen to me!

Stay away from Lady Yui!

I'm going to rip YOU apart before
Tamahome, Priestess of Suzaku!

As punishment
for hurting Lady Yui!

Hold it!

Nakago... Isn't the
w*r in the book over yet?

Why aren't you
here with me now?

Everyone! We have
to hold this line!

Highness! In front of you!

It's him...!

There we go. You've held on
very well. You'll be fine now.

Thank you so much...!

- Take care, now.
- Yes, sir.

We're running low on hot water.
Hurry and make some, would you?

Yes, sir.

- So, who's next?
- This way, sir.

There you go.

Where's Mitsukake?

The doctor's treating
the wounded in there.

Oh, that guy's hopeless, you know?
Mitsukake, what are you doing?

You're wounded, too, you know?

If you keep moving around,
you're going to die!

Press down here, would you?

Yes, sir.

Mitsukake!

Just bear with me for a moment.

All right. Well done.

All that's left is to
get you bandaged up.

I'll take care of the
townsfolk, so you just...

I'm a doctor.

I can't just
ignore wounded people.

- But...!
- Every one is important.

It's a doctor's duty to save
as many people as he can!

Shoka! Shoka!
Shoka, please hang on!

What's wrong?

It's our daughter.

She suddenly started
having trouble breathing!

Dammit...
I have no medicines...!

Doctor, please...!

I'll give her this holy water.

I may not have the power
to heal people anymore...

...and maybe the holy
water is useless, too.

But if I give her all
of my life force, then...

What are you saying, Mitsukake?!
Our powers are gone!

And even if we had them, you
couldn't use that in your condition...!

The Genbu...Seven...

Do you remember those two
warriors of the Genbu Seven?

Even after destroying
their bodies...

...they were able to
release such power.

But that's insane!

Leave this to me!
Get some rest.

And don't even think
about doing that!

Nuriko and Chiriko...
I wasn't able to save them...!

That's not true!
None of us could have!

It was nobody's fault!
Stop this, Mitsukake!

Shoka...
Will you give me your strength...?

Stop it! Stop it! Mitsukake!

Wh- Why, you..!

You bastards! Come on!

GET BACK!!!

For your lives, he...!
And now in front of me...

In front of me,
you dare to FIGHT?!

I won't allow it...!

LEAVE!!! All of you,
leave this place now!

Tamahome!
Tamahome, where are you?!

Come back here,
Priestess of Suzaku!

Outta my way!

Outta my way, you...!

I'm... I'm just
a character in a book?

My world is just written on paper?
Written by somebody somewhere...?

My family's death...

And Nuriko's... And Chiriko's...

My memories from when I was
a kid, it was all just made up?

Tell me...
What am I supposed to do...?!

Here it is, a rain-soaked
weekend afternoon, but...

...I'm walking the streets alone,
though I want to be with you.

I thought I understood before.

How falling in love
would hurt so much.

I understand, but it still hurts.

Even now, when we're apart...

...all I can think of is you.

No shadow...

But I can still feel the cold.

Miaka... Is that why we
can never stay together?

Is there nothing
we can do about it...?

Okay, people, let's do it
for real this time!

Scene 46, take 3!

And...ACTION!

I've had enough of you!

What's wrong?
I was just a little late.

What do you mean, "a little" ?!
You're an hour late!

If it was Christmas Eve,
what would you have done?!

I had work to do!
Surely you understand that!

That's what you always say!

Do you really love me?!
Give me some proof!.

You idiot!

I always tell you that
you're the only one, don't I ?

No matter what may
come between us...

...these feelings I
have will never change!

No matter how we
may be separated...

...no matter how often
we can't be together...

...I will always, always love you!

I swore we'd never,
ever be apart again!

I promised I'd make you the happiest
bride in the world, didn't I ?

Stay with me forever.
Never leave me again.

Just keep holding me
like you're doing now.

I'll stay with you, Tamahome!
Stay with you forever!

That's right.

Miaka. I... I...

No matter what I may try,
I just can't seem to do it at all.

But I push myself farther because
I want to be more than I am now!

Because I want to grab it
and have the ultimate joy!

I just can't go on anymore
with these feelings I have now.

Because the pain of yesterday
has frozen me to this spot.

It's a labyrinth with no way out
that I keep on wandering 'round.

But even if there's no way out,
I'm gonna tear it down!

There really are no easy
victories in this world.

If fate turns against you,
you have to stand there and fight it.

There are times when I'm a coward
and I just want to cry.

But I push myself farther
because I don't want to feel sad.

Because I want to always be
the one laughing in the end.

You've led me on quite a
chase, Priestess of Suzaku!

Suboshi!

Lady Yui said she
didn't want you k*lled...

...but for Lady Yui's
humiliation...!

For Lady Yui's humiliation,
death is too good for you!

Get away from Miaka!

Tamahome!

Get away from her, Suboshi!

- Miaka!
- Big Brother!

Keisuke, take care of Miaka.

I have a little business to
finish with this guy here.

Tamahome...

Miaka, forgive me.
Until now, I knew nothing.

But still, you...
Knowing what you did...

...you still fell in love
with a character from a book.

I finally understand.

The Celestial Warriors exist
for the sake of the priestess.

It's the real
reason we're born.

We were born the moment
you appeared in our world.

I finally understand.
I live only because of you.

My life, everything in my world...

Heaven and earth, all of it...
I belong to you!

That's why I'm not confused anymore.
I'm not afraid of anything anymore!

All that matters bis that I love you!

In childhood, he heard the legend.

That he was born to protect
the Priestess of Suzaku...

...a girl from another world.

That he would fight for her,
love her, and in the end die for her.

Saihitei, emperor of Konan.
Hotohori of the Suzaku Seven.

Next time,
" Even Wagering on this Life."

I have always, always loved you...
