Are you all right, Yuzu?

Yeah, I'm fine.

You're not hurt anywhere else, are you?

Thank you.

No, this is my fault. I'm sorry.

Why are you apologizing, Reiya?

I didn't come save you fast enough when that girl went chasing after you.

You can blame me.

Reiya...

That must've been scary, Yuzu.

I'm glad you're all right.

Thank you, Reiya. I'm fine, though.

Karin!

Karin!

Karin!

Youta!

Oh, my.

You screwed up.

Indeed.

Yuzu-chan, are you okay?

Yes.

I see. That's good.

Now then, Nadeshiko-chan...

Right.

I warned her so many times. What a fool.

Youta, you know what this means.

As clan head, I cannot welcome that fool into our clan.

Nadeshiko-sama, please give her another chance!

I promise I'll make her listen this time, so...

No. She has already made one mistake.

She had a chance to reflect on her actions and squandered it.

And your crime is spoiling her instead of trying to stop her.

Reiya?

If she touched you again, she'd no longer be accepted as that boy's bride.

She and her parents would be sent far away.

That's what the fox clan head decided.

Youta.

That girl is no longer your bride.

I, the clan head, do not accept her.

Y-Youta?

Why, Karin?

I told you...

so many times to stay away from your sister!

You had to, or we wouldn't be together!

But she screwed everything up, so I...

I'm sorry, Youta.

It's not worth crying over, okay?

I won't do it again.

It's too late.

We can't be together anymore.

Why not?

You're not my bride anymore.

What?

THE OGRE'S BRIDE

EPISODE 12: THE OGRE'S BRIDE

What do you mean I'm not your bride?

It's because you hurt the Kiryuins' bride.

I can't welcome you into our clan anymore.

It's her fault again?

No, it's not.

It's not her fault.

You'll need time to say goodbye. Cherish what moments you have left.

Yuzu.

Yeah.

Wait a minute!

This is your fault!

Now only you get to be happy? That's not fair!

Karin...

Goodbye.

Youta?

We can't be together anymore.

Karin-chan, you're my bride.

Okay.

Take good care of me, Youta-kun.

Why?

You said you'd always be with me.

You said I was a fox demon's bride. That I was special.

Youta, talk to Nadeshiko-sama again.

I won't do it again. I'll even do as you say.

Don't go, Youta!

Does it bother you?

Maybe.

We might never meet again, but it happened so quickly.

What are Karin and Youta going to do now?

Was there no other way?

You don't need to worry about it, Yuzu.

Reiya.

It's in the past now.

Forget how you feel now to make way for the future.

The past...

Our family always revolved around Karin.

I wanted their attention, too, but at some point, I gave up.

If I could throw away my sad past and forget, maybe I'd feel better.

But it's all carved into my heart.

It's part of who I am now.

I won't forget it.

I'll remember and accept it to learn from it.

If that's what you want to do.

It is.

But don't forget that I'm here for you when things get tough.

I know. Stay with me forever.

I will. Even if you say you don't need me, I'll be right beside you.

The banquet is ending. Shall we get out of here?

Yeah. I want to go home.

Then let's return to our home.

There.

You look lovely again today.

Thank you, Yukino-san. You, too, lesser ogres.

I've gradually gotten used to living with the Kiryuins.

Good morning, Reiya.

Good morning, Yuzu.

Reiya's dazzling brilliance still makes my heart race, though.

What's wrong? Your face is red.

It's nothing.

My life with my new family is full of warmth.

Take care, Yuzu-sama.

See you later.

Morning.

Good morning, Touko.

Yuzu, you've changed recently.

Have I?

Yeah, you're more cheerful.

If I am, it's probably because of Reiya.

Yes, yes. Thanks for sharing.

You don't need to gush.

Sheesh, Touko.

I'M COMING TO PICK YOU UP

I'm going now.

See you tomorrow.

What's going on?

He's so hot!

Is he here to pick you up?

Y-Yeah.

Go on. Don't keep him waiting.

Bye.

Yuzu.

Yamato?

Yuzu, I've thought it over since then.

I was wrong about Karin-chan.

So, what?

Can we try again?

I realized I do like you after all.

What the hell is Yamato saying after what he did?

What did I like about Yamato?

I was glad when the popular Yamato asked me out,

but I didn't understand love or romance back then.

But...

now I do.

Let go. I'm in love Reiya.

I can't go out with you, Yamato.

You're not good enough for him.

He'll end up cheating on and dumping...

Th-That's enough, okay?

Yuzu...

Hey, are you alive?

What a fall from grace for Mr. Popular.

Reiya.

I'm back.

Welcome home, Yuzu.

Sakurako-san.

I heard she has something to report to Reiya-sama today.

She's always so pretty.

Yuzu.

Could you come with me?

Reiya, what's about to—

Excuse us.

Takamichi-san?

Reiya-sama, we've come to tell you Sakurako and I are engaged.

I see.

What?!

No way! You two? Since when?

Yuzu, calm down.

How are you so calm?

Takamichi-san and Sakurako-san are engaged!

Of course they are.

Once I found you and my engagement with her was called off,

I knew this would happen.

Sakurako's Kiyama clan and Takamichi's Araki clan

are the closest branch families to the Kiryuins.

For ages, they've closely supported the clan head.

So Kiryuins sometimes marry into their families.

Demon matches are made according to power.

The unmarried man in line after me with power fit for Sakurako is Takamichi.

So that's how it is.

Are you two okay with that?

Yes, I'm satisfied.

As am I.

Sakurako-san?

I always thought Sakurako would marry Reiya-sama,

so it still feels a bit strange,

but she's certainly capable, so I have no complaints.

My goodness.

Your bride is so capable and lovely that you could die? Oh, Takamichi-sama.

I didn't say that.

Could it be?

When will you get married?

Probably after Sakurako graduates from college.

Or perhaps once the two of you are married.

That said,

I'd like to establish who will serve your children sooner than later.

I see. I'd rest easy knowing my children were in your children's hands.

But I know you two. Don't put too much pressure on yourselves.

I'm honored to hear you say that, Reiya-sama.

I'm marrying Reiya.

Of course I am.

I'm his bride, so I knew it would happen eventually,

but I'm not ready for kids.

Sakurako-san.

Yes?

Do you love Takamichi-san?

She's cute.

Was I that obvious?

So cute.

I'd be so embarrassed if Takamichi-sama knew, too.

I don't know if he does, but you looked so happy.

Did I? A woman's intuition is keen, isn't it?

You mean...

Yes. I've actually loved Takamichi-sama for quite some time.

Then why didn't you object to being Reiya's fiancée?

I'm a daughter of the foremost branch family.

I do what the clan tells me to do.

Not only that, but I was engaged to Reiya-sama. It was an honor.

As powerful branch family members,

Takamichi-sama and I grew up in similar households.

We were always together, like siblings.

Takamichi-sama set out to become Reiya-sama's secretary,

while I made being chosen as Reiya-sama's partner my goal.

Takamichi-sama, I feel so nervous

about finally dancing in Reiya-sama's presence.

For good luck.

Thank you.

We've always supported each other,

so I'm delighted to be engaged.

She suppressed her feelings for Takamichi-san for the clan's sake.

Sakurako-san.

Congratulations. I'm really happy for you.

I'll be marrying Reiya, too.

What is it, Yuzu?

N-Nothing.

Is there something you want to say?

Well, um... we'll be getting married eventually, right?

When?

Right after you graduate from college.

What? Really?

Yeah. Is that too late?

No, too early. I thought it was too early.

Why? I'd marry you right now.

I...

I always dreamed of having a cheerful family.

Once I graduated from college, got a job, and could support myself,

I wanted to marry a lovely man and have a family.

Then we'd be happily married forever

like Grandpa and Grandma.

Now I'll be getting married right away.

It means my wish will come true sooner, but...

Yuzu.

I'll wait for you.

Forever, by your side.

We can wait to get married until you're more accustomed to this world.

Okay. Thanks, Reiya.
