4. Meatballs Meatballs Meatballs Meatballs MeatballsCopy !req
5. Meatballs, meatballs, meatballs...Copy !req
6. I'm hungry.Copy !req
7. Those meatballs must have
come from the lady he just killed.Copy !req
8. I want more.Copy !req
9. Kei-kun!Copy !req
10. Stay on your guard.Copy !req
11. This spirit is likely one of the strongest
S-Rank spirits out there.Copy !req
12. From what I can tell, his attacks consume his targets,
which in turn, makes him stronger.Copy !req
13. When he colors over your drawing in his sketchbook,Copy !req
14. the part he colored over disappears
and turns into meatballs.Copy !req
15. Then he consumes the meatballs,
making him even stronger.Copy !req
16. Once your drawing is in his book,
there's no escaping his curse.Copy !req
17. My mom is everywhere.
I'll make her into meatballs.Copy !req
18. He's already cursed the three of us,
but the dolls will hold him off for the time being.Copy !req
19. But our spirits don't have that protection.
He'll kill and absorb them in a split second.Copy !req
20. That goes for Graduates, too, which is why
we have to do something about that sketchbook.Copy !req
21. Our first step is to steal it and get rid of it
while we still have dolls protecting us.Copy !req
22. Do that, and we win.Copy !req
23. We'll be free of his curse,
and our Graduate can safely come out to play.Copy !req
24. Then we wait for them to beat him to a pulp.
Game over, we win.Copy !req
25. S-so that all sounds good,
but how are we supposed to steal it from him?Copy !req
26. Simple. We use this.Copy !req
27. Yayoi-chan?Copy !req
28. Huh? Kei-kun?Copy !req
29. Wait, Yayoi-chan?Copy !req
30. Yayoi-chan! We have to help her!Copy !req
31. Kei-kun?Copy !req
32. The water's rising...Copy !req
33. I-I'm gonna drown...Copy !req
34. Eiko, take the doll and go save Yayoi-chan!Copy !req
35. B-but what about you?Copy !req
36. I'll be fine, just go before I'm a goner!Copy !req
37. Save Yayoi-chan,Copy !req
38. then, the two of you can come back for me, yeah?Copy !req
39. I'll be right back!Copy !req
40. Mom?Copy !req
41. He's attacking me!Copy !req
42. Why aren't you meatballs?Copy !req
43. I've got my secret weapon...Copy !req
44. I'll be okay!Copy !req
45. Yayoi-chan!Copy !req
46. Here!Copy !req
47. Yayoi-chan!Copy !req
48. Thanks, Eiko. That was close.Copy !req
49. I'm just glad you're okay.Copy !req
50. We'd better go help Keitaro, and fast...Copy !req
51. Yeah.Copy !req
52. What is this? A shower door?Copy !req
53. I-it's stuck!Copy !req
54. No. Stop!Copy !req
55. Get away from me!Copy !req
56. There's no blood.Copy !req
57. It's going right through her.Copy !req
58. The doll's taking the attack.Copy !req
59. You okay?Copy !req
60. I am, thanks!Copy !req
61. They went back to the boy.Copy !req
62. Seems that room and the spirits in it
were part of him all along.Copy !req
63. Now, then...Copy !req
64. Yayoi-chan, I've got an idea.Copy !req
65. But I might end up needing your help...Copy !req
66. Keitaro!Copy !req
67. Yayoi-chan!Copy !req
68. Thanks for holding out. You'll be free in a sec.Copy !req
69. Yayoi-chan!Copy !req
70. I know. I just need a little more time...Copy !req
71. I'm free!Copy !req
72. Payback time.Copy !req
73. Come at me, motherf***er.Copy !req
74. Whoa, what the hell, Yayoi-chan?Copy !req
75. Kei-kun!Copy !req
76. Eiko!Copy !req
77. Taunting him worked.Copy !req
78. The High Priest's attacks take time to take effect,
so he won't work against him.Copy !req
79. The Martyr seems like the right choice,
but he goes easy on women and children.Copy !req
80. That leaves her as the better choice.Copy !req
81. But there's a chance she'll immediately
go after us as soon as she's released.Copy !req
82. That's why I made her take one of his attacks,
to get her to be pissed at him instead.Copy !req
83. Looks like my plan worked.Copy !req
84. The sketchbook's too soaked to curse anyone.Copy !req
85. Now, we fight back.Copy !req
86. Bedazzle us...Copy !req
87. Otogiri Oiran, the Soul-Sucking Courtesan.Copy !req
88. I discovered her about a year ago
at a random swap meet.Copy !req
89. Apparently, whoever owns this creepy mirror
starts to age quicker.Copy !req
90. You can have it for 100 yen.Copy !req
91. She didn't look strong. Seemed like your typical ghost.Copy !req
92. But that story put me a bit on edge,
so I put her in my room for safekeeping just in case.Copy !req
93. But about a month into having her, she transformed.Copy !req
94. She consumed the spirits in my room
and channeled her grudge into a powerful curse.Copy !req
95. Her name, Otogiri, means Hypericum flowers.
In bouquets, they signify a hostile grudge.Copy !req
96. Thus, she is Otogiri Oiran, the Soul-Sucking Courtesan.Copy !req
97. Behold this magnificent flower,
blooming in the madness...Copy !req
98. Behold her butterflies,
glimmering in the night amongst its petals...Copy !req
99. Whom is the fairest of them all, you ask?Copy !req
100. Well, look upon me.Copy !req
101. Mom.Copy !req
102. Meatballs.Copy !req
103. It transformed a section of her skin.Copy !req
104. Thanks, Keitaro.Copy !req
105. That was close, but now I've got a better idea
of what's changed about this spirit.Copy !req
106. First, it's too fast to deflect,
and too tough to even leave a scratch on it.Copy !req
107. It's using its rock-hard arms to crush anything in its path.Copy !req
108. Anything that gets crushed is turned into meatballs,
which norish it further.Copy !req
109. It's gonna be way more annoying
to deal with than before,Copy !req
110. if only because what was once two separate attacks
is now rolled into one attack.Copy !req
111. Thankfully, it's definitely doing worse now,
and its attacks aren't invisible anymore.Copy !req
112. It can only absorb things it can reach,
so we can attack it from out of its range.Copy !req
113. Long story short, watch out for the arms, guys.Copy !req
114. O-okay.Copy !req
115. Her...Copy !req
116. Her skin...Copy !req
117. She did that back at the love hotel, too...Copy !req
118. It's about to get ugly.Copy !req
119. Let's back off. Whatever you do,
do not touch those butterflies.Copy !req
120. That is the start of Otogiri Oiran's curseCopy !req
121. The first stage...Copy !req
122. Soul-Sucking.Copy !req
123. Anyone who touches the fiery butterflies
will start aging as the life is sucked out of them.Copy !req
124. Then...Copy !req
125. She healed!Copy !req
126. That life force is used to heal her
and strengthen her curse.Copy !req
127. The more she sucks in, the more beautiful
and more powerful she becomes,Copy !req
128. and the more varied her attacks become.Copy !req
129. The stronger her opponent, the stronger she becomes,
the brighter her beauty shines.Copy !req
130. And the boy's toughness will do nothing
to protect him from her.Copy !req
131. You drank some of my blood, did you not?Copy !req
132. She must have enough energy now.Copy !req
133. Watch.Copy !req
134. Wh-what's happening to him?Copy !req
135. This is the second phase of her curse:Copy !req
136. Pestilence.Copy !req
137. She suffered this same sickness when she was alive.Copy !req
138. Lumps swell all over your skin, followed by
headaches, fever, nausea, and a drowsy daze...Copy !req
139. After I took her into my possession,
I had a dream where I saw her past.Copy !req
140. She was blessed with natural beauty,
so when her poor family fell on hard times,Copy !req
141. she turned her beauty into an asset
and sold her body as a courtesan.Copy !req
142. Beauty was life itself.
That truth became the creed she lived by.Copy !req
143. That is why now, she endlessly drains life from those
around her, bolstering her life-affirming beauty...Copy !req
144. with no regard or pity for those she destroys.Copy !req
145. S-so she's going to drain him to death...Copy !req
146. Is he going to pull through?Copy !req
147. It'll be over for us if he crushes her whole body.Copy !req
148. Is he throwing a temper tantrum,
or is he hurting her for fun?Copy !req
149. I didn't want to have to use this, but I've got no choice...Copy !req
150. What are you doing, Yayoi-chan...?Copy !req
151. Forcing out the third phase of the curse.Copy !req
152. I had to wait for her to suck out enough power,Copy !req
153. and I needed conditions to be right.Copy !req
154. What do you mean?Copy !req
155. Just watch.Copy !req
156. I'll use her old mirror...
to show her just how ugly she's become.Copy !req
157. It's something I only want to use
when things literally get ugly.Copy !req
158. Otogiri Oiran?Copy !req
159. This is Kurenai. She will be your new apprentice.
Do take care of her, now.Copy !req
160. I promise to work hard to become
a courtesan as lovely as you are!Copy !req
161. Please, would you honor me with your tutelage?Copy !req
162. Very well.Copy !req
163. Th-thank you!Copy !req
164. Is this for me?Copy !req
165. Let your beauty wither, and your life is over.Copy !req
166. You must always strive to be your best,
most beautiful self. Understood?Copy !req
167. Yes, ma'am!Copy !req
168. I will treasure this gift and heed your words!Copy !req
169. Otogiri...Copy !req
170. I would like to purchase your freedom.Copy !req
171. I want your beauty by my side, now and forever.Copy !req
172. My darling Ito...Copy !req
173. I would be happy to spend my life with you.Copy !req
174. He's been poisoned!Copy !req
175. Someone, call a doctor, quickly!Copy !req
176. Why?Copy !req
177. Let me through!Copy !req
178. We need a doctor!Copy !req
179. We need to find a doctor!Copy !req
180. I hand over my money, and this is my thanks?Copy !req
181. That poison almost killed me!Copy !req
182. How dare you mock my kindness, whore!Copy !req
183. N-no, please, it wasn't-Copy !req
184. Quiet!Copy !req
185. I don't want to hear another word from your foul lips!Copy !req
186. Please, I must be healed...
I must be beautiful for him to hear the truth.Copy !req
187. For him to understand. For him to take me in.Copy !req
188. I must be beautiful, before my money
and medicine are gone...Copy !req
189. Away with you, hag!Copy !req
190. Please... I need money.Copy !req
191. Just a bit of money, and I'll...Copy !req
192. Why, hello.Copy !req
193. Kurenai?Copy !req
194. Your man was gracious enough to buy my freedom.Copy !req
195. No...Copy !req
196. Since I won't be seeing you again,
why don't I tell you the whole story?Copy !req
197. I have always been the most
beautiful woman in the house.Copy !req
198. More beautiful than you,
yet you were wrongfully seated above me.Copy !req
199. It was humiliating.Copy !req
200. I could not let it stand.
I would not let you shame me any further.Copy !req
201. So, I poisoned him. It was me.Copy !req
202. Remember this trinket?Copy !req
203. I'm so glad I came to see you.Copy !req
204. Nothing could make me happier...Copy !req
205. than seeing how disgusting you've become!Copy !req
206. Kurenai...Copy !req
207. What is this foul smell? Oil?Copy !req
208. You will pay.Copy !req
209. You will burn in the fires of my rage!Copy !req
210. The third stage of the curse:Copy !req
211. The white-hot flames of resentment,Copy !req
212. fueled by her very life...Copy !req
213. The Burning Manse.Copy !req
214. A child's rage meets the anger of a woman scorned.Copy !req
215. Pitch black and rouge red resentment clash.Copy !req
216. When the dust clears, will they find salvation or ruin?Copy !req
