ORIGINAL WORK BY YUKI MIDORIKAWA

Did you see that girl on the right?

She gave me a look.

Are you sure?

She was holding a tennis racket.
I wonder if she came from practice.

She plays tennis, huh?

I wonder if I'll see her again.
What do you think, Natsume?

Natsume?

What's up, Nishimura?

The girl we just passed by--

What have you got there? Is that origami?

Never mind, what were you talking about?

She was super cute.

The uniform she was wearing
is from an elite school.

Damn it! Why didn't I talk to her?

This is no laughing matter!

Her long hair flowed so effortlessly
and her smile was so gentle.

There's something great
about clean-cut girls. Right, Natsume?

You're right.

-It's a really incredible sunset.
-But maybe she has a boyfriend.

-I've seen this scenery a million times,
-But she's pure. No way!

but it really is beautiful.

-Yeah.
-That'd be a bummer.

How was the mock exam, Nishimura?

Don't ask me that.

Look, isn't it pretty?

But I'm sure you've seen

so many beautiful sunsets.

Hey, Natsume!

You shouldn't take that out in public.

Master Kitty-Cat.

It's quite a rare ayakashi,

so you never know who may be after it.

You're right.

Okay, let's go home, Natsume.

I hear we're having
fried chicken tonight. Hurry up!

Wait up, Master.

Fried chicken, fried chicken!

It all started a couple of days ago.

I'm in your debt.

I am someone with no home
who is on a journey

with no destination.

I came here after hearing
that you give yokai back their names.

It makes sense that you would
be the grandson of Reiko.

Life is so ephemeral.

As you are still a child of man,

you cannot yet drink this sake
I brought as a symbol of thanks.

-How unfortunate.
-Indeed.

I can drink it. I will drink it all!

No home and no destination?

Don't you get lonely?

I never said I was travelling alone.

Is that so?

It tastes divine! It might be fun to go on

a trip when I'm done
with this minor business.

Minor business?

Watching over you
until I get the Book of Friends.

Oh that.

A journey without a destination.

I guess if you are not alone,

it could be quite exciting.

Something or someone is crying?

Where are they?

A dream?

I think what I saw was our garden.

I think it's around here.

Is this origami? Or a doll?

But why is it here?

Were you the one who was crying?

If you don't know what it is,
just throw it away!

Hey, it could be a bad idea
to throw it away.

Let's keep an eye on it for now, Master.

Is it just a doll?

Or could it be something else?

Is that a bird?

It's heading this way.

-A kite?
-My sincere apologies for last night.

It's the voice from yesterday.

I have a question to ask you.

Have you seen a little origami doll

in this vicinity?

Did it belong to you?

Oh, I am glad to hear you know of it.

That is my important travel companion.

I placed it in my pocket, but it fell out.

That's your companion?

It's quite fussy so
it stays within the paper doll.

I would have visited you
in person if I could,

but I can't move at the moment,

so I sent this kite in my place.

That is a very rare yokai
with extremely unique powers.

Small yokai are very interested in it

and may try to attack and nab it.

That is why I want you to
protect it until I reach you.

I thought I heard a commotion
and here you are.

We are not obliged to do that.

I am counting on you!

Wait!

That damn kite bringing work to our door.

Do you really think that
this papery ayakashi

could possibly have any value?

Hey, cut it out.

It doesn't move
and it seems that it can't speak.

That ayakashi believes that this doll
is their traveling companion.

Good night, Master.

Let's hurry up and hit the hay.

Good night, little origami.

It's so beautiful.

It was a really strange dream.

It was the most
beautiful scenery I've ever seen.

But still, it took me back.

It was really beautiful.
I wish I could've shown everyone.

Good morning, Master Kitty-Cat.

You're in good spirits.

Oh, Natsume,

I had the most wonderful dream.

It was like swimming in a sea
teeming with stars.

I saw the same dream.

-Really?
-Takashi.

-It's time for breakfast.
-Coming!

Are you going to bring that with you too?

It wouldn't be good if I left it here
and something happened to it.

Good morning.
I hope he comes to pick you up soon.

Let's do another round.

We will study a poem
containing cherry blossoms.

The wind passes through

The scent of flowers on my sleeves
As I wake

The scent on my pillow
Is like a dream on a spring night

CLASS 2-2

What are you waiting for?
Start erasing, Sasada.

It's such a beautiful poem.

Really? Do you understand it, Natsume?

I'm not sure.

-It's a poem about love.
-It is?

A poem about the scent on a pillow.

It must be a dream about someone you like.

Even if you are awakened
by a passing breeze,

you are still enveloped
by the scent of flowers.

Isn't it beautiful?

If I was going to have a dream,

I'd want it to be about delicious food.

Dumplings rather than flowers?

You'd never understand, Nishimura.

Hey, you're wrong!

You think I can't understand love?

I had taken the origami ayakashi
under my wing,

but surprisingly,
nothing unusual happened.

Are we sure that this isn't
just a plain sheet of paper?

Who knows?

Good night.

However…

Cherry blossoms?

From that day,

I started having
the most beautiful dreams.

Both me and Master Kitty-Cat too.

I'm sure this isn't a coincidence.

-I'm going to try speak to it.
-What?

Is it because of you that we have been

having great dreams lately?

No answer, huh?

Oh, so it is your doing?

-Master?
-You can't hear it?

It seems as though
this doll does contain an ayakashi.

It seems like the dreams
are its way of saying thanks.

Thanks for what?

It is showing us the beautiful
scenery it has seen on its travels

as a sign of gratitude

for taking care of it for the time being.

Is that so? You are incredible.

Thank you.

That's why I wanted

to show it a beautiful sunset too,
as a sign of gratitude.

Fried chicken! Fried chicken!

-Fried chicken!
-Though I'm sure that you have seen lots.

-Countless plain sunsets like this before.
-Fried chicken! Fried chicken!

I never asked but what's your name?

I was told not to give out
such info lightly.

That makes sense, I guess.

Why don't we just
call it "Origami" or "Ms. Paper Thin."

Okay, let's go with "Origami."

I guess we've no reason to
hide our identities at this stage.

My name is Natsume.
His name is Master Kitty-Cat.

Let's enjoy our short time together.

I would like to tell Tanuma
and Taki about Origami.

But I can't tell anyone for now
since we don't know

if a dangerous yokai is listening.

I'll tell them when Origami is picked up

and things calm down a bit.

Good morning, Takashi.

Come here, look, look.

Good morning. What is it?

-It's a little bud.
-Yes.

It's finally about to bloom.

This one was quite small.

This must be because you made us
such a nice garden, Takashi.

You can really see
the fruits of your efforts.

That's great.
I'm looking forward to it too.

When these flowers have bloomed,

will Origami already be gone?

This gentle scenery that
shimmered so brightly for me

would probably just be boring to Origami,
who'd already experienced greater beauty.

But…

"I've been wondering this whole time,

but what is that red box on the street?"

That's what Origami wants to know.

It's called a post box
and you put letters in it.

-Like a telegram?
-Yes.

You use it to communicate
with others and see how they are doing.

It's asking, "What's that little building
full of flowers?"

It's a florist. They sell flowers.

"Why would you buy flowers?"

"You can find flowers everywhere."

Gifting picked flowers is also nice.

It's asking,
"Why would you give flowers as a present?"

"I hear that flowers are
offered to the dead."

That is true,

but you also gift people with
flowers to give thanks and show love.

I still could not hear
the voice of Origami.

That's a train station.

That's a book shop.

That's a taiyaki shop.

Let's go, Natsume!

Not again. Today I want sweet dumplings!

The scenery I was used to seeing every day
started to sparkle a bit brighter for me.

Good morning, Origami.
Thanks for the drea--

Are my eyes playing tricks on me?

It seems like the desk area
around Origami is a bit dirty.

Last night's scenery was beautiful again.

It looked like a foreign land
or a hermit village?

I would love to go there someday.

Would you be alone on your trip, Master?

Of course I would.

My spirit is independent.

You're right.

The days continued to sparkle.

But of course, those days
would come to an end at some point.

I would have to preserve these images
in my mind, just like Origami.

Natsume?

Taki…

Are you heading home now?

Yeah. I just returned a book
that I had borrowed from a friend.

We got talking and I lost track of time.

Taki had slowly been opening up

and had become better
at talking with people.

Are you heading home too, Natsume?

-Yeah.
-What's the matter?

It looks like you were
standing there for ages.

Erm… well… it's just that…

I was watching the sunset
because it's so beautiful.

Is that so?

You're right. It really is gorgeous.

I better get going. See you, Natsume.

-You felt a weird presence?
-Yeah.

So I guess someone is after Origami.

I'm sure it's just a small fry.

If you see it again,

take it out with one of
your wimpy punches.

If you spot something, tell me. Okay?

Same for you, Origami.

The desk is dirty again.

I wonder if something
is happening to Origami?

I have to protect it
until it is picked up.

And after that,
I'm sure it will set off on its travels

to see many more wonderful sights.

I have to write the class log for today.

-Can you return this key for me?
-Sure.

It's gone.

Was that thing just now after Origami?

But what was it?

What happened, Natsume?

You look down in the dumps.

Yes, perhaps I am.

Origami seems to be saying something.

It's saying, "My travel companion
will come here tomorrow."

"This is my final evening in your care."

Really? That's great, Origami.

"I don't know if it's so great or not."

"Forget I said anything."

Okay.

Hey, Lord Natsume!

We heard what happened.

I heard a super evil
ayakashi is after your life.

Wait, where did you hear that?

I have no idea.

I just asked them if they'd seen
any ayakashi about?

I can't tolerate someone messing
with our toy.

I mean, our valued friend Lord Natsume.

Those ayakashi are so impudent and cheeky.

We've been at this for eight great years!

Hold on. I am not the one being targeted.

We don't even know
if anyone is being targeted.

If you plan on fighting,
I will come to your aid, Lord Natsume.

Right until the very end.

Natsume, the Dog's Circle
is about to join the fight!

The Kappa is a bit late, but I'm here too!

No matter who the foe is,
we will take them down.

Take them down, down, down!

Quiet! Get out!

Takashi, what's wrong?

You were shouting. Are you okay?

S… Sorry.

Master caught a bug and got very excited.

Hey, Natsume! Don't blame this on me!

What is this dream?

What is this sunset?

What's that?

What is that presence?

Is that…?

Sorry for startling you.

I know you were trying
to show us your true form.

Why are you standing so far away, Origami?

I won't get startled again.
So come closer.

I wish that

I had long flowing hair

and a gentle smile.

Goodbye, Natsume.

Thank you for the beautiful sunset.

An image of a flower.

Why would you give flowers as a present?

I guess the desk was dirty because

she was practicing drawing these flowers.

It seems like Origami set off
on a journey.

I see.

Then I'm sure she will
see many sights again.

Goodbye, Origami.

I hope we meet again.

I wonder if I can show
this to Toko and Shigeru?

You definitely cannot.
This is ayakashi ink.

It will fade very soon.

Is that so?

In that case,

I will need to be sure
to commit it to memory.
