01x11 - Hanayome no Shimai

[bunniefuu]

Come on, Karin. This way.

Karin.

Karin.

I'm falling!

Aah...

It's so warm.

Are you all right, Yuzu?

Yeah, I'm fine.

It's all her fault.

It's her fault.

You're a chosen one.

We're so proud of you.

Karin-chan,

you're my bride.

THE OGRE'S BRIDE

- EPISODE 11: THE BRIDE SISTERS

- The dolphins were so cool.

Wasn't that fun, Onee-chan?

Yeah.

Hey, there's a store.

This is so cute. I want it.

Honey, it's expensive.

Buy it for me. Please, Dad!

You know just how to
ask for things, Karin.

Okay, let's get it.

Hooray!

You spoil her, you know.

How cute.

Mom, I want this.

Oh, please. Put that back.
We can't afford that.

What? But...

You're the big sister, Yuzu. Suck it up.

Okay.

Weird. She should get something, too.

Right, Dad?

Yeah, sure.

I want this.

This sandwich looks good, too.

Then I want that, too.

You do love sandwiches.

Yeah.

What are you getting, Onee-chan?

I'll have... orange juice.

That's all?

That's a cute uniform.

That's a Kakuriyo Academy student.

Kakuriyo Academy?

Yeah. It's a school for demons.

What are demons?

Amazing people who are
different from humans.

Amazing people?

Mom, Dad, I want to go to
Kakuriyo Academy, too.

I want to wear that cute uniform. Can I?

What?

Well...

Honey, you have to be straight with her.

It wouldn't be impossible,
but we really can't afford it.

Y-Yeah, I know.

Huh? I can't?

Karin, it's hard to get
into Kakuriyo Academy.

Lots of people want to meet demons,
so it's very competitive.

It might be a bit difficult for you.

Aw...

Karin, there are other schools
with similar uniforms.

One of those might be better.

Wait, honey.

Huh?

Karin's really cute.

She might be chosen to be a bride.

A bride?

True. She might have what it takes.

Exactly. Why don't we think of this
as an investment in our future?

Once Karin becomes a bride, we can have
her groom's family support us financially.

Then we won't have to struggle anymore.

Karin, do you really want
to attend Kakuriyo Academy?

Yeah.

You'll have to study really hard.

I can do it. I'll study lots.

You're about to be very busy, Karin.

Okay.

You did great, Karin.

Seriously. You answered so confidently.

As a reward, let's get lunch
somewhere before going home.

Okay.

Will Onee-chan be okay
by herself at home?

She'll be fine. Yesterday's
leftovers are in the fridge.

You're more important right now.
You don't need to worry about her.

Now, what do you want to eat?
We'll get whatever you want.

Anything?

In that case, I want a Hamburg
steak, omurice, and...

You passed! Good job, Karin!

You so worked hard!

Now, let's celebrate.

Where's Onee-chan's piece?

Oh, whoops. I forgot.

Seriously?

We can get something for Yuzu later.

What's wrong? Let's eat.

Karin, congrats on getting in!

We're so proud of you!

Thanks, Mom and Dad.

You look perfect.

It suits you, Karin.

Onee-chan, there's a hole in your sock.

You can still wear those. Right, Yuzu?

Yeah.

Are you sick?

I'm fine.

Then smile! Come on.

Yuzu's such a gloomy girl.

I know. She's always
hiding in the corner.

You're Karin-chan, right?

Who are you? How do you know my name?

I'm Kogetsu Youta.

I'm a fox demon.

A fox demon?

I saw you during the interviews.

It's taken some time,
but I realized something.

Realized what?

Karin-chan, you're my bride.

A bride?

Of the Kogetsu clan?

We were right.

Yes. I knew Karin would
be chosen to be a bride.

What's a bride?

Well...

It means I love you
more than anyone else.

So, Karin-chan...

Will you be my bride?

Okay.

Take good care of me, Youta-kun.

Nice to meet you. I'm Shinonome Karin.

How adorable.

Truly.

Youta-kun, who's that?

Nadeshiko-sama.

She's the most important fox demon.

Nadeshiko-sama, this is my bride.

She's pleased to make your acquaintance.

I see.

May you be a dedicated
bride of the Kogetsu clan.

Youta-kun.

It's okay, Karin-chan.

Milady.

There's a banquet after this.

Your parents are welcome
to join us as well.

Hold your head high,
Karin-chan. You're my bride.

Yeah, Karin.

You're a chosen one.

Excuse me, milady.

She's truly beautiful.

The Kogetsus are secure now.

Hold your head high, Karin-chan.

Excuse me, milady.

You're a chosen one.

I'm a chosen one.

I see. Yes, I understand.

Your uncle's asking for money again.

Is he really that poor?

Mom, I want something to eat.

We have that pudding...

Mom...

I'd like to go to
the zoo this Sunday.

The zoo? Why?

Um, because it's my birthday.

What? I don't want to go to the zoo.

Mom, hurry up with that pudding.

If Karin doesn't want to go
to the zoo, then we won't.

But...

How many times have I told you?

We're only able to live like
this because Karin's a bride.

You should be grateful to her.

Does she still not understand
we have all this because of me?

Mom, my class visit is tomorrow.

I can't go. Karin's class
visit is on that day.

You don't know my schedule?

It's so hot.

Mom, Dad.

Karin, what are you doing? We have to go.

Onee-chan said she's hot.

Well, she has a fever.

You gave her medicine, right?

Yes. We can't have her
getting Karin sick.

Stay away from her.

Anyway, we'd better leave or
we'll be late for the recital.

Let's go, Karin.

Okay.

What the hell are you doing?

How could you ignore Yuzu when
she's clearly suffering?

Karin isn't your only daughter.

We know, but Karin's a bride.

It's natural for us to prioritize her.

Yeah, and Yuzu's got her head
on straight. She's fine.

She's got her head on straight, huh?

Yeah. Yeah, that's right.

Welcome, milady.

This way. Youta-sama is in his room.

You know, I have a name. Call me Karin.

But you are a bride, milady.

Then what would you call
me if I weren't a bride?

What a silly thing to ask.

Someone who isn't a bride
wouldn't be welcome here.

Youta, I want to spend
more time together.

So do I, Karin.

I'm anxious.

But there's no reason
for you to be anxious.

You'll have me forever and ever.

Thank you. I love you, Youta.

I love you, Karin.

Those were tough times.

We had to beg our relatives for
help to get you into the academy.

I know. We did it for you,
but it still hurt our pride.

How many times have I heard this?

Youta paid off their debt forever ago.

Thanks, Mom and Dad.

It's fine.

Anyway, when Youta-kun comes over,
could you tell him we need some money?

Could you?

Fine.

It's stressful,

but as a bride, I'm the one
supporting this family.

Karin.

What are you doing out here?

I couldn't wait to see you.

I missed you, too.

Hey, Youta...

My dad said he'd like some
more money this month.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry you had to bring that up.

I suck for making my bride sad.

Youta... He's always so warm.

I could probably do anything
and Youta would forgive me.

Don't be so angry, Karin.

But I came all this way to say
hello, and I couldn't see her.

That can't be helped.
Nadeshiko-sama is busy.

They're so pretty.

But so am I.

People will look down on me
if I relax even a little.

I have to be beautiful at all times.

I'm Youta's bride.

That's right. I'm a chosen one.

I'm not like my sister.

Not like her.

Onee-chan...

Why her?

Why?

Why?

Why?

Karin!

Karin!

Youta!

Oh, my.

You screwed up.

Indeed.

Youta.

That girl is no longer your bride.

I, the clan head, do not accept her.

Y-Youta?

Why, Karin?

I told you so many times to
stay away from your sister!

You had to, or we wouldn't be together!

But she screwed everything up, so I...

I'm sorry, Youta.

It's not worth crying over, okay?

I won't do it again.

It's too late.

You're not...

You're not my bride anymore.

What?
