"Toilet-bound Hanako-kun"
"Daikon"
Hello,
"Daikon" this is four-out-of-ten daikon heroine Yashiro Nene!
"Daikon" Four, huh?
"Daikon" Y-You're plenty cute, Senpai!
"Daikon"
A mysterious hand pulled me into the Boundary of Wonder Number Three, the Hell of Mirrors.
There, I was rescued by Tsukasa-kun,
even though he tried to get rid of me before just because I'm Hanako-kun's assistant.
What in the world is going on?
"Apparition 11: The Hell of Mirrors, Part 2"
Hanako-kun said the Seven Wonders are supposed to be unbeatable in their own Boundaries,
but he made that look easy.
--You know, --Yes?!
I did tell you.
You're so weak you can't stay in the living world, Mitsuba.
So, unless you want to disappear, you have to work hard and get stronger.
Hmm... I think it's around here.
I told you if you want to get stronger...
...you've got to beat a strong apparition and eat it.
"No. 2 Science Prep. Room"
So, why did you come to me?
--I mean, it's been two hours since Yashiro was kidnapped,
--Yeah. --I mean, it's been two hours since Yashiro was kidnapped,
--Yeah. --but I can't go into Number Three's Boundary!
Yeah.
--The boy and I tried prostrating ourselves and begging it to let us in, but it didn't work.
--Please let us in. --The boy and I tried prostrating ourselves and begging it to let us in, but it didn't work.
--I'm begging you, you damn mirror! --The boy and I tried prostrating ourselves and begging it to let us in, but it didn't work.
I'm begging you, you damn spider!
Sensei.
Damn Spider-sensei!
Listen...
If Yashiro...
...got hurt or anything, I'd be in trouble.
She is my assistant.
So, tell me, Tsuchigomori.
Please?
"Zzz..."
Each of the Seven Wonders' Boundaries has its own function.
"Zzz..." My library is the "school records."
"Toss"
Number Two's is "space."
Meaning that you can reach almost anywhere in the school through her Boundary.
What?
But I thought Senpai smashed up Number Two's Boundary along with her Yorishiro!
Oh, that just took away her authority over it.
The Boundary itself still exists,
although I'm sure it's falling apart without anyone to oversee it.
Isn't that right, echinococcus?
Quiet, gloomy spider!
Why should I help, anyway?
--I couldn't care less what happens to your--
--Kitsune udon. --I couldn't care less what happens to your--
--I have nothing to-- --Udon.
Udon.
Fine.
--Yay! --All right!
This is the place, right?
Let's go.
One, two, three...
...four!
This is...
Wow.
It's gotten a lot prettier!
Be quiet.
I'll lead you to Number Three's Boundary.
Don't wander off.
Hey, fox.
What is it, stupid brat?
Someone changed your rumor, so you went way off the rails and attacked us, right?
I see you like to dredge up unpleasant subjects.
So what?
Oh, well...
I just wondered what that felt like.
Excuse me?!
What do you want to know that for?
How boorish!
I knew Misaki was the only good human!
You see,
the boy can't get over his ghost friend who disappeared after someone changed his rumor.
A little bit like you, huh?
How so?
I see...
It wasn't a nice feeling, looking back on it now.
But...
...that was definitely me.
I was out of control, but I didn't turn into something else.
It was just that a side of me I normally conceal was forced to the surface.
I see...
"Gardening Club Activity Log"
So,
if you said anything to your friend,
maybe it reached him, even if he didn't understand.
After all, no matter how twisted he was or what shape he shifted into,
your friend was still himself.
We've arrived.
This leads to Number Three's Boundary.
Is this... a mirror?
Isn't it kinda... sinister?
"Poke, poke" Isn't it kinda... sinister?
Just so you know, this is as far as I'll take you.
Figure out how to get back on your own.
Sure!
Thanks, fo--
Don't call me "fox"!
"Stern!" Don't call me "fox"!
"Stern!" Call me Yako-neesan!
Y-Yo, Neesan!
"Yo!" Y-Yo, Neesan!
"Yo!" That's better.
"Yo!" Is it really?
All right, boy, are you ready?
Yeah!
I'll show that damn mirror who's boss!
Okay, let's go!
Cool, huh?
Apparitions have hearts, too.
Hang on!
Please, stop!
Okay, say "aah."
S...
Stop!
Daikon-senpai.
H-He doesn't like it... okay?
I'm going to hit!
Oh.
I'm supposed to be gentle with girls.
Sorry.
There, there.
Be a good girl and keep quiet.
Ow!
Is this it?! Where is she?! Here?!
Calm down, boy. This is the place.
Yashiro!
It looks like she's just sleeping.
Thank goodness.
Huh?
No way, are you...
...Mitsuba?
How...?
I mean, you disappeared back then.
Mitsuba!
Were you all right?!
Are you hurt or anything?!
Huh? What's with your hands?
Don't tell me...
...that's Number Three?
Boy, get back!
Huh?
Whoa!
Where did that come... from...?
Mitsuba?
No.
I'm scared.
Help.
He's surprisingly fast, huh?
Ah!
S-Sorry.
Mitsuba!
Are you done eating?
There.
"Sob, sob"
Oh? What's this?
Wh-What are you doing here,
Tsukasa?
Oh?
Oh!
Long time no see!
"Squeeze" Long time no see!
"Squeeze" H-Hey, Tsukasa. Listen to--
Amane, Amane!
Whoa!
I-It's back!
Aww...
You're getting in the way...
Mitsuba.
Wh-What are these things?
What's going on?
Whoa there.
These are for protecting you, Mitsuba.
Calm down and control them.
O-Okay.
That's it. Great job.
Tsukasa...
Hey.
Damn you.
What've you done to him... to Mitsuba this time?
Tell me!
I made Mitsuba's wish come true.
The price was his "reason," a piece of his soul.
Back then, I took out a piece of Mitsuba's soul, his "reason," and held onto it.
What?
After that,
the rest was easy.
I just made a body by scraping together lesser spirits that were about to vanish
and stuck Mitsuba's soul into it.
See? Instant Mitsuba!
But he's a totally different person.
I guess he'd have to be.
The Mitsuba Sousuke who lived and died as a human
no longer exists in this world.
Why?
Hmm?
Why would you do that?
It's your fault Mitsuba is gone.
Hmm...
I guess I always wanted to try making
an artificial human!
Oh, but he's a ghost, so I guess that makes him an artificial ghost?
I wasn't expecting him to end up so weak he couldn't exist in the living world,
but isn't he kind of cool?
Damn you!
Cut the crap!
Mitsuba...
Mitsuba's not your toy!
Oh yeah?
Should I not have made this one, then?
Huh?
They're gone!
I'm gonna fall, I'm gonna fall!
Hey, Mitsuba.
You were just born with nothing,
but now you have Number Three's power.
What'll you do?
Huh?
Let your new power be taken away and disappear?
Or steal a position in the Seven Wonders and take over this Boundary?
What'll it be, Mitsuba?
I'll do it.
I don't want to disappear yet.
If the alternative is disappearing while I still have nothing...
If that's my choice, I'll become a Wonder, or whatever it takes!
I see.
If that's your wish,
I'll make it come true.
From now on, Mitsuba, you're Wonder Number Three.
Mitsuba...
"Wonder Number Three"
What is this? It's fun!
This Boundary is yours now, Mitsuba.
What kind of apparition do you want to be?
You can be whatever you want!
Whatever I want?
Then... I want to be normal.
I want to be a normal human.
Can I?
Yup. You can.
No!
Apparitions born in the land of the dead
are forbidden from living as humans in the land of the living.
I'll need you to give back Number Three's position.
Mitsuba.
Are you sure?
Mitsuba's gotten pretty strong, you know?
He might squash you like a bug!
This is Mitsuba's Boundary now.
Mitsuba's unbeatable here.
Come on, Mitsuba, squash 'em!
"Abruptly" Huh? Mitsuba?
--Sneaky-sneaky. --Oh, there you are!
What're you doing?
Stay back!
Isn't it obvious?
I'm running away!
--Why? --Why?!
Just look at him!
"Gleam" Just look at him!
"Gleam" How am I supposed to beat a guy with a knife?!
What? It'll be a piece of cake.
Just squash him with your new power.
"Splat" Just squash him with your new power.
Don't be ridiculous! Look how cute I am!
--Hey, come on! Hey! --Umm...
--No! --Umm...
No, no, no--
"Smack"
Do it.
I-I-I'd be happy to.
"Round 2"
Okay, here goes.
You three.
I already know Daikon-senpai...
Let me think.
Got it!
Crazy Knife and... Lame-ass Traffic-safety Earring!
Who are you calling Crazy Knife?!
Don't point your knife at me!
A-A-Anyway, this is my place now!
Your lives are in my hands!
Like in porn?
Yeah, just like in porn...
Hey, what'd you just make me say?!
"Squeeze..." --Porn? --Cut it out!
Huh?
Umm, excuse me?
H-Hey, what do you want?
Are you captivated by my cuteness?
Well? What's your deal?
Your earring's super lame.
Hey.
Don't you remember me?
Huh?
What are you talking about?
I don't get it.
Who the hell are you?
A-Are we done?
We're done, right?
Let go.
Oh.
Hey!
--Wait a sec! --Whoa!
Wh-What's your problem?!
I'm...
My name is Kou!
Minamoto Kou!
Remember it, you girly-looking dummy!
Hmph!
"Rummage, rummage"
Ow!
Huh?
"Gardening Club Activity Log" Huh?
"Gardening Club Activity Log" What's this?
"Gardening Club Activity Log" Shut up!
"Gardening Club Activity Log" Just you wait, faker!
"Gardening Club Activity Log" Excuse me?!
Okay, that's enough of that.
What are you do--
You have better things to do, right, Mitsuba?
"Round 3"
Here.
"Gleam" No!
"Gleam" A knife!
"Gleam" He's gonna kill me!
Watch out!
Wow! I'm impressed!
Hey, Hanako, what do we do?!
To take back his position as a Wonder, we just need to destroy his Yorishiro,
but Yashiro isn't waking up, so we'll have to start...
...by getting him under control!
W-Wait, Hanako!
Mitsuba, you aren't even a dead person who once lived in the living world.
You're a pure apparition, the furthest thing from a living human.
That means...
...you can never become human.
Give up.
No!
Yashiro!
Huh?
Mitsuba-kun?
Ow, ow, ow...
Senpai!
What's going on?
Hanako-kun, Kou-kun, when did you get here?
Are you all right?!
And the way you look...
Daikon-senpai,
I...
I got stronger!
Now I'm one of those "Wonders" and the boss of this place!
So, if you destroyed this... "Boundary"...
...it would be a problem for me.
So, you see, I mean...
Go home for today!
Wh-What the--?!
Huh?
Oh no!
I'm being pulled into the mirror!
Stop!
Don't grab my ankles!
Hanako-kun! Kou-kun!
Why are you--
Shh.
Don't struggle.
See you.
"Girls' Bathroom"
Are they dead?

"Keep Out"
Man, that was awful.
I wonder how she's doing?
I can't wait to... I mean, I'm so worried about her!
Making it back after I fell into that gap in the Boundary at the tea party sure took a while.
"Bubble, bubble" Making it back after I fell into that gap in the Boundary at the tea party sure took a while.
"Drag" Making it back after I fell into that gap in the Boundary at the tea party sure took a while.
"Natsuhiko Theater" Making it back after I fell into that gap in the Boundary at the tea party sure took a while.
"Natsuhiko Theater" Miss!
"Natsuhiko Theater" Natsuhiko!
"Natsuhiko Theater" You came back!
"Natsuhiko Theater" Being apart made me realize for the first time just how much you mean to me.
I love you.
Miss!
...Is how it'll go.
Miss, I just got b--
So, Mitsuba squashed 'em. Splat!
I did not.
Is that so?
That must have been tough.
Would you like some tea?
Oh, thank you.
What about me, Sakura?
Whoa, who's that?
They're multiplying.
