01x08 - Caught like Floss in a Canine's Tooth

[bunniefuu]

Turn it on!

That's awesome!

Have you asked a girl
to the lighting ceremony yet?

-Come on, tell me.
-Huh? What about you?

Did he have a fight with Juno?

He's so obvious.

Listen, guys.

Let's stop here for today
and go back to school.

-What?
-It's only five.

The mayor told us to leave.

Could that be because of
what happened yesterday?

That's right.

There have been many devouring incidents,
so it's not safe for us to stay out late.

I heard a duck was k*lled
in the neighboring town.

That's why we're going back to school
before it gets dark.

Okay.

I wonder if the Festival of the Meteor
will really be held.

Let's go.

CAUGHT LIKE FLOSS IN A CANINE'S TOOTH

FLOWER

You must be a student
from Cherryton School.

Mr. Mayor...

You have to go back to school now.

Yes.

Creating a town
where everybody can live in safety

is my duty as a mayor.

Everybody's already left.
I didn't realize that.

I'm so alone.

Well, I've always been alone.

Even if I get devoured, no one would
probably notice that I'm gone.

Hal...

Legoshi.

It's really hard to understand
this gray wolf boy.

He turned the cold shoulder to me
the other day,

-and now he shows this verve.
-Ah...

sh**t! I should talk to her
at her eye level.

-How are you?
-I thought you'd already left.

Yeah...

Ah... Can I go home with you today?

Sure, but what happened all of a sudden?

Because it's dangerous outside.

Was he actually trying to be funny?

I wonder if I should have joked about it
like, "Look who's talking!"

Hey, what the hell is wrong with you,
Legoshi?

Sorry, sorry.

Stand clear of the closing doors, please.

Sorry...

Legoshi...

I felt this when I met you
for the first time...

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

You don't?

The first day...

It was hot today, wasn't it?

It's gonna be a little cooler tomorrow,

-so it'll be more comfort--
-Why do you avoid talking about that day?

You can laugh at it now
that a rabbit you just met

tried to sleep with you,
because we are friends now, right?

I can't just let it go that easily.

It was something
unforgettable to me, so...

I can't do anything but just keep inside

my heart, and I don't want to
forget about it.

I want you to value yourself
as much as I value that memory.

Please don't... give yourself
to anyone like that.

I don't want to hear that,
especially from a wolf like you.

DO NOT ENTER

You've never known what it's like
to live a life

with the constant fear of death.

I may be devoured

before even being loved by someone.

You've never had such a fear,

so you will never understand
that about me.

Let go of me.
I'll ride in other train car.

-You can't. We should talk.
-We have nothing to talk about.

-I just told you the truth.
-But--

Stop lecturing me as if you understand me.
Let go of my hand!

Then, don't go away.

-What the hell? Just let me go!
-No!

-Let go of me!
-I won't.

-He's assaulting her!
-Is there any carnivore who can help?

You, the wolf!

What are you doing?

I was just talking with her.
I wasn't doing anything...

Let's get out of here!

-What? Why?
-Now!

Hey, wait!

Why are we running away?
They'll be more suspicious...

Are you stupid?

Carnivores could get caught
just by using any kind of force

on herbivores these days.

-Oh, I almost kicked you.
-You're such a pain!

Are you sensitive or thick-skinned?
Make up your mind!

I'm still trying
to figure that out myself.

Because we are so different, I'm wondering
how I should interact with you.

Will you stop being attentive to me
in a situation like this?

Instead, just run as fast as you can
and take me away!

Or they'll get you! Hurry!

Hey! Stop right there!

In front of the girl I fell in love with
for the first time,

I could feel confident about myself
as a wolf for the first time.

I have no idea where I'm heading to.

I don't know
what others think about us, either.

There should be a way.

I'm just gonna keep moving forward.

Where are they?

Even in this kind of situation,
he's trying not to touch me.

-Hey, over there!
-What? Really?

I thought they were here...

Hey...

Can we go now?

Hal...
Do you fear like your life is in danger

by being with me here, right now?

I didn't notice until now,

that carnivores growl in the throat

as they talk.

Why are you letting out

such a low growl with such a gentle look?

I told you!

Be sensitive or be thick-skinned.
Not both.

Because you ask such a question
in anervous tone,

everybody gets scared of you.

I read about it in a magazine,

carnivores can never be too cheerful
if you wanna be popular.

You know what that means?

Yeah, I get it.

It's wrong to keep it a secret anymore.

I have to tell her about that night.

Maybe now is the time to confess.

-Look...
-Listen--

...I was once almost devoured
by a carnivore.

At school. I couldn't see his face though,
because it was too dark.

Look at this scar.

Remember? I had a bandage
when I met you for the first time.

That's...

I told you that I didn't remember
what happened,

but I was lying.

...a scar I gave you.

I can't tell her.

I'm glad that I wasn't k*lled.

I don't feel the fear of death
when I hang out with you.

I can swear this.

Hey, smile!

-Hey, come on! Give me your smile!
-I can't tell her now...

If I tell her my secret,

we'll probably be over.

Until the time comes,
I will keep admonishing myself.

-Hal...
-What?

Thank you...

for today.

You don't have to thank me,
but just be happy. Smile!

Smile...

Oh, come on! You're making a fake smile
on purpose, aren't you?

Can I walk with you in the sunlight
a bit longer?

STUDENT ID - NAME: JUNO
CLASSIFICATION: GRAY WOLF

For real?

I heard that Bill did that to you.

I hope it doesn't leave a scar.

This isn't the same
as the scar on your back.

What do you want?

If you have something to say, say it.

I have nothing to say... for now.

Hey, what's wrong with them?

What's going on?

Are they getting along or not?

They're not.

Don't bring your personal problems
into the club.

I'm telling this to all of you!
The Festival of the Meteor is approaching,

but we are not working as a team at all.

Will you guys be able to perform perfectly
without any mistakes?

I'm sorry!

I'm late.

Juno!

Juno! If you're gonna be late,

you have to let me or
one of the seniors know.

I'm sorry.

My classmate, a sloth,
had to rush to the bathroom,

so I carried her there.

-It can't be helped, then.
-You are so kind.

But it's just an excuse,

so please let me do the cleaning
of the rehearsal room today.

Sheila, what's going on?

You told me that Juno was isolated
from the other members.

She's been making a lot of efforts
these days.

Legoshi!

I saw the dino!

Because the art team does a great job,

we, the actors, can do our best dancing.

That's great.

She's looking at nobody but Legoshi.

The Festival of the Meteor
is the biggest summer event.

Let's do our best on our practice today!

Yeah!

Okay, let's warm up!

Juno pulled a team together.

Juno.

Thank you for today.

Aren't you done cleaning yet?

Isn't it too dark with just one light on?

Because wolves are nocturnal,

I feel better when it's dark.

Right...

You're a wolf.

That's not the only reason.

There's one spotlight,

and there are two actors.

Rouis, would you help me with my practice?

Just two of us, for the first time.

Okay.

One, two, three. One, two, three.

One, two, three.

You're doing it the wrong way.

Did I go too fast?

It was rather rough.

Your performance
would fascinate the audience,

but the harmony with others is important.

Give me your hand.

Well, as long as you cheerfully dance,

guys will be fascinated.

So you really don't need
to pursue perfection.

What do you mean by that?

Oh, sorry.

Did that sound like an insult?

I realize...

Hey...

...that you hate me.

Or perhaps,

you just hate carnivores.

What do you think you're doing?

Are you going to kiss me or what?

Of course not.

If I kissed you on the lips now,

and if I couldn't resist
my impulse to eat you,

I'd be in trouble.

I'm not into you.
I'm in love with Legoshi.

I am declaring a w*r, Rouis.

I will be the next Beastar.

I will make a new peaceful era
for carnivores

and Legoshi senpai will be mine.

Do you still want to boast
about your strength?

I'd probably feel better
being devoured by you

rather than Bill or Legoshi.

I will...

never bare my fangs against you.

Female wolves do not like conflict.

Really?

A greedy female wolf like you
must be different from others.

Is it wrong to be greedy?

No, I didn't mean that.

Just...

Your greediness is based on
your massive confidence.

Beauty, status, and a male.

You think you can get whatever you wish.

You already have the first one, beauty,

but I will not let you have
the second one.

And the third one.
Your favorite male, Legoshi...

He is much harder to obtain
than you think.

What makes you say that?

I will definitely make Legoshi mine!

Just watch him,
and you will see what I mean.

Well, it will be a good ordeal
for an overconfident girl like you.

You have split ends on your tail.

Don't pull it out, it will hurt.

I won't.

Does he have... a girlfriend?

Everybody, let's go back to school now!

It's already dark out here.

Rouis has already left.

Dom is so energetic.

-Hello.
-Hi, Juno.

Thank you for waiting.
The actors are ready to leave, too.

Legoshi,

I did pretty well in the rehearsal,

thanks to your support.

No problem at all. I didn't do anything.

His facial expressions are the same
when he talks to me or to others.

Let's go, then.

Oh! The meteor has been completed already!

Yeah, you're right.

If you place a lit candle at the meteor
with someone you love,

the couple will be blessed.

Do you believe that?

I don't know...

It'd be great if it were true.

The couple will be blessed...

Ah, um... Legoshi.

On the festival day,

would you be--

What?

We lost the power... This is bad!

Is everybody all right?

Legoshi? Where are you?

I'm here. I will hold your hand, okay?

Yes...

What happened?

I think it's a power outage. Don't worry.

We, the nocturnal, will protect you.

Els! Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm okay...

Let's come and get together in one place.

Everybody, get in the circle!

Isn't the power back yet?

I'm scared. I can't see anything.

It's all right.
The power will be back soon.

No wonder they get frightened.

Devour incidents always occur

when it's completely dark outside.

How many of us are here today?

Let's see...

Thanks, but it's okay. I'm almost done,
so you can go back now.

Aoba, sorry! I have to go.
Please take care of them.

-Hey!
-I'll be back soon!

How come he could leave us like this?

Hal!

Hal?

Hal?

She's not here...

Where is she?

Calm down. I still smell her,
so she should be around.

Concentrate.

Track it. Track her scent.

Please stay safe.

-What a relief...
-Rouis!

I'm so glad you came!

Legoshi?

I... am sorry. Oh, gosh. I'm so sorry.

I thought you were...

It's okay. I'm glad you are safe.

I couldn't see anything at all. I'm sorry.

I know. Are you hurt?

Your uniform got dirty. Here, use this.

-I'm so sorry.
-It's okay. Take it.

-Thank you.
-Have you been here since?

It can't be...

A wolf and a rabbit?

Of course not! That's not possible!

But... Wait...

No way!
