01x12 - In the Storm's Wake

[bunniefuu]

I'll be your beast.

Our true selves are frozen in time
in this position.

Legoshi. Sorry...

My body is moving by itself
trying to get inside your mouth.

THE RABBIT'S GENE IS BLAMING HER

"LOVING EACH OTHER IS A TERRIBLE MISTAKE"

I can't believe this.

A PREDATOR HAS ITS OWN INSTINCTS
SO DOES A PREY

I'm sorry.

I just couldn't stop myself.

Don't be.

I had no idea my body would react
like that. Isn't that weird?

I'm sorry, too. I didn't mean to...

THEIR BODIES KNOW
WHAT THEIR RELATIONSHIP SHOULD BE

No, I was the one who wasn't ready.

We can probably make it work
if we try hard.

Wanna give it another try?

No, no, no. Of course not!

Let's stop right here.

But... I kind of feel bad for you...

Oh, wait!

Don't worry about me!

Males can calm this thing down
if you just leave them alone.

Now let's get some sleep! Really.

Don't worry...

Hey, please don't get down.
You're a man, aren't you?

No, no, I'm not feeling down.

I'm just...

What have I done to her?

I should have been
more considerate towards her.

I'll wash your shirt for you.

Cheer up!

No, I will do that by myself.

This is the least I can do for you now.

How stupid I am.

Why had I...

ever have thought
she'd be mine if I saved her?

IN THE STORM'S WAKE

A living creature's hand is warm.

I've never thought about that.

All I wanted was to save her.

I should be happy
that her hand is still warm.

I am truly glad that her hand is warm.

We left the hotel

without doing anything after all.

It's a beautiful day, isn't it?

I forgot to tell you something important.

Thank you for saving my life.

-By the way, you were snoring so loudly.
-Sorry.

I remain like a child
who doesn't know anything,

and I'm walking with you under the sun.

I was going to report it to the school
if you were late for another 30 minutes.

So, you kept it a secret for me?

I didn't do it for you!

An injured male Carnivore spending a night
together with a female Herbivore.

How can I tell that kind of story
to the school?

Then, will you please tell the school
about us?

The kidnapping by Shishi-Gumi
and the sleepover did actually happen.

Don't ever mention
such a horrible organization's name again.

Anyway, a rabbit going out
with a wolf is not acceptable.

Where did you sleep last night?

She's only talking about the sleepover.

She doesn't want to talk
about Shishi-Gumi.

Do you get it? Are you listening to me?

Excuse me.

Is Legoshi all right?

Hi, are you...

his junior?

Yes, I was worried about him.

Will you please excuse us?

SCALE FOR SMALL ANIMALS ONLY
GET YOUR FUR CUT TO PREVENT HEATSTROKE

Thank you, Juno.

I'm sorry for the trouble
right before the performance.

Please don't worry.

I was certain

that you'd return safely.

Were you?

Because...

I know better than anyone else in the club

about the strength of wolves.

Right.

I see.

Why is he moving back?

I actually

overheard that

you saved a rabbit from Shishi-Gumi.

I believe you!

You told me before,

touching someone of the same species
would make you relax.

Now, you need that. Touch me!

Thank you,

but somehow, I am very relaxed right now.

What?

Why does he look like,

"I already belong to that girl,
so no thanks"?

INFIRMARY

This puny girl flirted with Legoshi!

Oh, excuse me.

Would you like to go in?

Oh, no...

I don't have any business here,
so I'll get going now.

What the hell do you think you're doing?

Do you think you can make Legoshi happy?

What?

Aren't you being rude
to someone you just met?

I'm Hal, a senior.
Now tell me who you are.

I'm sorry.

I'm Juno, a freshman.

Legoshi seems to be more popular
than I thought.

She's a wolf, too, and very pretty.

I know that a lot happened
between you and Legoshi last night.

Yeah, right.

But our relationship isn't as simple
as you think. So, don't worry.

Will I make Legoshi happy?

Well, since a girl like you is into him,
he should already be happy.

What?

Hey... What are you...

What the hell? Why am I attracting wolves
two days in a row?

Okay, I see now.

I figured it out from your smell.

You didn't have sex with him.

Of course you didn't.

Did you think I was going to eat you?

I don't have to eat you to defeat you.

I will win as a female.

I will prove it to you
at the Festival of the Meteor.

You can leave
after you take this stuff out.

Why?

Why do you even ask?

Can you do the stage lighting duty
with those injuries?

Sure. I don't need any rest.

I'm saying, we're too busy to care
for someone wounded.

-It's what we, the art team all agreed on.
-Again?

We've had so many changes
since Rouis disappeared.

He's gone?

We can't get ahold of him at all.

He has never done
anything like this before.

I think it's my fault.

I want to talk to him.

Juno?

STUDENT ID - NAME: TEM
CLASSIFICATION: ALPACA

I have changed my costume
and the make-up a little bit.

As Rouis is absent,
we need to unite our spirits as one.

Let's make a great performance
and surprise the audience.

Let's have a blast!

-She's right.
-Yes, we can do this!

I feel like something is changing.

Whether it's for better or worse,
each one of us will decide.

No matter what, I have faith in her.

Good luck!

Kai, I'll be counting on you.

Sure, leave it to me.

Even if our surroundings
constantly change,

I can keep being myself

as long as you stay with me, Hal.

I asked her to meet me in the evening
because I have something to tell her,

but she may not remember it.

I've been through a lot.

I feel like I've been through both ideal
and reality in 24 hours.

I feel weak at the knees

and can't move on anymore.

Hey, the performance by Cherryton School
is starting now.

Who is she?

She's so pretty!

Carnivores are so strong.

They are pretty,

and special like she is.

I was not scared
of being loved by Legoshi,

nor being eaten by him.

I was just scared to admit
that I'm just a puny rabbit,

so I've been avoiding him.

You're the only one who recognized
a rabbit like me in this world.

You are responsible for it, Legoshi.

I can no longer live without you.

You idiot wolf...

I can't find her. Where is she?

Could she be kidnapped again?

Where is she?

I don't want to miss her again.

Thirty feet away...

No, it can be farther than that.
65 feet?

Has she left the venue?

Hal...

Is your nose working all right?

Hal.

-I...
-Wait.

Let me say this first.

I...

I...

Thank you very much, everyone.

Please let me introduce to you
one of our club members now.

He is a brave male wolf!

He searched for a missing student
and risked his own life

to rescue her.

He acted so bravely as a Carnivore.

Legoshi.

Please come up here.

What's going on?

Hey, Juno.

You didn't tell me
anything about this.

He...

risked his own life to rescue

one of the Herbivore students
of Cherryton School.

It is so natural

that Carnivores always want
to help Herbivores

because they are stronger.

It's a simple compassion.

No, she's wrong!

I've seen the horrors...

I'd like you all to understand.

...of the Carnivores' instincts
with my own eyes.

The potential hidden
inside their physical strength

is more precious than you realize!

This is the nature of Carnivores!

She's amazing.

Look at his bruised eye.

They are young but remarkable.

I'm so happy, and I hope that

the world becomes a better place
even gradually.

I've been longing for it
since I was little.

Oh, let's go to light
a candle together, Legoshi.

Hey!

You have to do this with someone you love.

People will misunderstand us.

Especially after standing out like that.

I won't be misunderstood.

Legoshi.

The strength of Carnivores

does not shine in the shadows.

You know what I mean.

No matter how much you fight
in the darkness of society,

it will be just a burden on you.

You'll be feared and hated,

and you'll be overwhelmed
by your own strength.

I don't want to see you
get hurt like that.

Let's go...

into the light together.

Juno is really something.

I'm used to enduring bullying,

but looking at them together
was pretty tough...

because they looked so perfect
for each other.

They looked so good that those townsfolks
clapped their hands for them.

No one will bless the relationship
between a wolf and a rabbit.

Anyway, I don't have the right
to make Legoshi mine.

I can just back off, then everything
should be alright.

-It should be...
-Hal!

...that...

-Hal!
-...simple...

Hal.

It's not safe to walk alone at night.

This guy really makes
everything complicated!

What are you doing here?
Did you just leave her alone?

What?

You heard the applause.
You two are a perfect match!

What?

Are you stupid?

Will you just leave me alone?

She is just my junior.

Sure, we're both gray wolves,

but I think we have
very different ways of thinking.

I'm...

basically pessimistic,

so it doesn't matter
if I'm in the light or in the shadow,

I will always have some worries.

So, if I keep worrying in the dark

like I've been doing all these years,

I want you to be a part of my worries.

That way, it'd be worth worrying.

But I feel so bad that you almost
got k*lled because of me.

And I don't want to cause you
any more female-related trauma.

You must have been hurt from what happened
at the hotel last night.

Well... Yeah...

Those kinds of problems are common,
I think.

No, that was an emergency situation.

I tried to get eaten by you.

Yeah, right.

It's not a matter of male and female.
You are a wolf,

and I'm a rabbit! This fact won't change!

To tell you the truth,

when you were abducted by Shishi-Gumi,

I felt like they took away my prey.

To be honest, I was confused
with my feelings and felt so nervous.

I wondered...

why I wanted to save you.

But,

I know how I feel now.

I will never eat you! Because--

Don't.

How can you be so sure about that?

That's what I'm going to tell you now!

The more honest Legoshi becomes
about his feelings,

the harder it gets to contain
my feelings for him.

There's no guarantee
that a wolf won't eat a rabbit!

We can't get any closer to each other!

I hate to get hurt like this.

I'd rather be eaten by you.

Maybe there's no guarantee,
but I have a reason to stay with you!

It's so simple, but...

Why?

Because I love you.

Hal...

I will get

stronger.

Because I want to make you happy

without getting defeated
by this society or my instinct.

I will get stronger.

I'll be waiting for you.

ROUIS THE RED DEER MISSING!

Legoshi, how was the summer,

overall?

This summer...

I didn't eat watermelon.

What?

Why don't we go get some?

Let's go.

Hey...

I will, but don't rush.

There you are. We've been looking for you.

Let's go.

What's funny?
