Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon (2020) s01e02 Episode Script

Sanbiki no hime

1
When I was little,
I had a younger twin sister,
and we lived in
the forest for the longest time.
Come on, Setsuna.
Wait for me, Sis!
Oh!
Setsuna, do you want this?
Yeah! Thank you.
Yummy!
That's great.
We were always
together, and we got along so well.
Setsuna, wake up.
There's a fire.
Setsuna, this way!
Sis
It'll be okay. Just follow me.
Come on, hurry up!
Then why, at that moment
did I let go of her hand?
Sis!
Setsuna? Setsuna!
Sis!
Are you okay? I'm
sorry I ran off like that
Look out!
Oh, no!
Setsuna.
Where'd she go?
I can't smell her anywhere.
Sis!
Setsuna!
Setsuna!
Sis!
Where are you, Setsuna?
Setsuna!
Setsuna!
"The three princesses."
HIGURASHI FAMILY'S CAT - BUYO
I realized later on that I had
been catapulted through time.
Where am I?
Hello, are you lost?
My name's
Sota Higurashi. What's your name?
Towa.
Towa, huh?
I see.
It looks like you've come
from a place far, far away, huh?
I don't know why, but at that moment
I knew that I could trust this person.
Please! Can you find
Setsuna? I'm looking for her!
All right. Let's look for her together.
Papa Sota helped me
search, but we never found Setsuna.
It's been ten years since then.
Papa Sota ended up adopting me,
and as part of the Higurashi
family, I now go by "Towa Higurashi."
My memories have faded over time.
Lately, I've been thinking
that maybe that day was just a dream.
But Setsuna was definitely not a dream.
That much, I know for sure.
14 YEAR OLD GIRL - TOWA HIGURASHI
Such nice weather.
Time to brush my teeth.
I'm leaving now.
Be safe.
Good morning, Sis.
Morning, Mei.
It's your first day at
your new school, right?
Don't get into any fights, okay? I'm off!
All right, be safe.
That's Mei.
Papa Sota's true daughter.
She's a bit shy and naive,
but she's also cute,
smart, honest, and quite talented.
She's my precious little sister.
But
Maybe I cherish Mei so much because
she's a substitute for
Setsuna, whom I never was able to find.
I'm heading out.
Be safe, okay? Wait
Towa! Are you going to
school dressed like a boy again?
Why am I dressed like this, you ask?
Because it's
easier to fight in, of course.
It's an all-girls school this time.
We don't want
you getting into fights anymore
I know, I know.
I'm off!
Good grief.
No one seems to get it.
Transferring to an all-girls
school won't stop the fighting.
The ones I take down
always come back for more.
We found you, Higurashi.
I heard you transferred schools again.
You trying to run away from us?
It won't be that easy!
Get ready!
Who said I was running?
Higurashi, don't get so full of yourself!
Stop it! It'll break! Help!
The fighting hasn't stopped
ever since I stopped
a bully in elementary school.
And there'd be more
each time I changed schools.
They're all weak!
Why can't they just keep their heads down?
That ain't no woman.
Why doesn't she finish us off?
She's too soft.
But at this rate
We'll have to ask Bro for help.
SAINT GABRIEL ACADEMY
My first day, and I'm late already.
No one's looking, right?
Okay.
There we go.
A demon slayer, huh?
There's actually a job for that?
I had no idea.
And? You're here to "slay" me, Beniyasha?
Don't make me laugh. Not
happening in a million years!
I'll turn you all into
lunch for my Kurikaramaru!
Get ready!
Moroha the Demon Killer!
On behalf of the local villagers
We're here to punish you!
Hiraikotsu!
Whoa!
From the local villagers?
You've got the wrong target.
I haven't left these mountains. I'm
just waiting for my bounty to show up.
A demon and a bounty hunter?
All the more reason, then!
Stand down, Hisui.
Uncle Kohaku.
Lady Moroha. Is another demon responsible
for attacking the local village, then?
Yeah, that's right.
But it's too late.
You've made me mad.
With this rouge, I become
Beniyasha, Destroyer of Lands.
Tremble before the bloodthirsty dawn.
Hey, you demon slayers
work with an interesting companion.
You're a half demon, right? I'm also a
Silence! You're dead.
Kanemitsu no Tomoe, huh?
Fancy naginata you got there.
Say, if I win this match, can I have it?
Setsuna, I'll back you up.
There's no need.
So your name's Setsuna, huh?
All right! Sorry "Setsu,"
but I'll be taking your weapon!
What? You saw through that?
Not bad at all, Setsu!
Wait, is that a
You have a Rainbow Pearl, too?
A Rainbow Pearl?
The Rainbow Pearls! Hand them over!
CENTIPEDE DEMON - MISTRESS THREE-EYES
So that's the one attacking the village
Retreat!
Give it to me! Give me the Rainbow Pearls!
Setsuna!
Setsuna! Are you okay?
CAT DEMON - KIRARA
Mistress Three-Eyes!
I knew you'd show up.
Since I have this with me!
The Red Pearl!
I've been after you from the start.
Time to claim my bounty!
You're tougher than
I thought! In that case
Hey, demon slayers!
Get lost, unless you want
to get caught in the crossfire!
-What?
-This way, Hisui.
Yes, sir.
Take this! Heavenly Arrow Barrage!
You missed!
Are those Sacred Arrows?
No, those are the Arrows of Sealing.
How could Beniyasha
have such spiritual power?
I did it!
H-Hey, get back here!
Give it to me.
I need the other Rainbow Pearl!
-There it is!
-Oh, no.
Hisui, divert
Mistress Three-Eyes to Lady Kaede.
Yes, Uncle.
Come back here!
Damn you! Give me back my Red Pearl!
-Thank you.
-There's a British proverb
-How'd it go?
-that goes like this.
"When in Rome, do as the Romans do."
When you're in an unfamiliar place,
you should behave like the people there.
Right
I guess I won't be staying
too long at this school, either.
If you'll be attending this academy,
you should conduct
yourself like the students here.
Being tardy because
you got into a fight is preposterous.
I guess he's going to call my parents.
I will overlook this for today,
but please be careful next time.
Huh?
That will be all. You may go home now.
What?!
See you tomorrow, Mei.
Okay, bye-bye!
Bye-bye!
This is the moment when I feel at peace.
The celebrated sword
Kikujumonji, a national treasure.
I'm told that it once belonged
to the shogun Yoshiteru Ashikaga
It's Mei. She's crying.
She's at Grandpa's shrine!
Your sister should be
here soon. So just sit tight.
H-Hey, Bro. Don't
you think this is a bit much?
You idiots.
If you want to take
revenge, you gotta go big or go home.
Don't be backing out on me now!
Yes, sir!
This world is full of the weak.
And because they're weak,
they band together and
pick on people weaker then them.
I'm really sick of it.
Well, aren't you guys lucky.
You get to see her crying face.
You want to see it that badly?
Sis!
Mei! Grammy, Grandpa
I can show you a crying face.
But it won't be mine. It'll be yours!
Get her!
You're pretty good.
But I don't think
you understand the situation. Hey!
Mei!
I hope you haven't forgotten
that we have a hostage on our side.
If that's how you want to play this
Hey, what the hell is that?
No one gives a shit if
that katana is real or not.
Here's what'll happen if
you move even one step.
Wouldn't want scars on
your cute sister's face, now, would you?
Don't you dare move, got it?
What's the matter, huh?
Where's all that energy from before, huh?
Towa, you can't use your powers
in front of other people, okay?
It's our little secret. Promise?
Yeah! I promise!
I'm sorry, Papa Sota.
I can't keep our promise.
What?!
Please get somewhere safe.
Please don't fight, Towa.
-I'll end it quickly.
-Sis!
What the hell?
She's not human.
We're no match for that!
Hey, get back here!
What is she?!
Come on Mei, let's go.
Please stop fighting, Sis.
Don't worry! I got this.
Your big sister's pretty strong.
No! You can't!
If you keep doing things
like this, you'll never stop fighting.
I know you really want to be
more girly and cute, don't you?
Um, I guess there's a part of
me that can't answer immediately.
You're supposed to say
"yes," even if you don't mean it!
Sorry. I'm sorry, Mei.
Sis, you dummy!
Bro!
Who called the cops?!
We'd better bail.
Looks like they were only passing by.
Well then
You dummy! You said
you'd never get into fights again!
Sorry, Mei.
Living in this world is hard.
If you don't follow the set
rules, you're treated as an outcast.
Girls must be feminine,
and boys must be masculine.
I've just been so sick of that.
But I think it's time
I stop being stubborn.
There's nothing that could
ever justify making Mei cry this much.
This smell
How strange. It's
nostalgic, one I've smelled before.
By why is it coming from here?
VILLAGE ELDER PRIESTESS - KAEDE
Give me the pearl!
I think we've come far enough.
Hisui, I'll get off here.
Are you serious?
It's after the pearl in my right
eye. I'll use that to my advantage.
-Setsuna!
-I won't let you get away!
Take this! Cyclone Burst!
How dare you!
My name is Setsuna.
Those are my only words for
you. That is why you will die tonight.
Crimson Dragon Wave!
What? You
Sorry, Setsuna.
But I had first dibs on that one.
-Ridiculous.
-Wha
-Damn it.
-Come to me, Gold Pearl.
Oh, what joy.
It absorbed the Gold Pearl, too!
The Rainbow Pearl's demon
power is becoming one with my own
What power!
Absorbing the Red and Gold Rainbow Pearls
has made it even stronger!
Hold on. I've got you, Setsu!
Don't call me that!
I sense the Rainbow Pearl for the first
time in over ten years! And two at that!
By the power of the Tree of
Ages, I now return to this world!
What?
What is happening?
-What is
-Sis.
This smell.
Mei!
Oh, how strange.
Sis, what is that?
Could this smell be
-Wha
-Oh, dear!
That's That's
Yes! That unbelievably
bright place from my memories
And this smell!
Setsuna!
Wh-Who calls my name?
Damn it. I feel so weak.
Is it because I crossed
through the rainbow corridor?
Wonderful, just so wonderful!
The Silver Pearl is here as well.
Now each of my
three eyes will have a pearl!
Setsuna, I'll save you!
No way! My Kikujumonji broke!
NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW
Setsuna shows up in the present day,
but she doesn't
remember that I'm her older sister.
I don't know you. If
you value your life, don't come near me.
It's a nasty curse.
The butterfly that lives in
the Dream World came out to this world,
and you can't fall asleep
ever again, let alone have dreams.
My dreams were eaten?
Next time on Yashahime:
Princess Half-Demon:
"The Dream Butterfly."
It was because of me.
I'm sorry, it's all my fault.
