That bits in the beginning (after the anime intro of sagishiS)...What is Kurosaki talking about? Sth like "...alive again.."... It's there since Eps 5.
-------------------------------------
AS USUAL: this is just a rough trans from the chinese subs, I may be wrong at some parts so don't quote me on this...
-------------------------------------
screencaps added!
not going to talk much about the swindling in this eps...
The theme seem to be... : Kurosaki is going to be a kurosagi for the rest of his life?
Kurosaki. Ponytail. *smiles*
Tsurara: Oh no! *stops by the door* Please...Don't Be There.. *peeps* Yes. *comes out quickly* *saw sth in her mailbox*
Yukari seems different from the previous episodes. She was like...overhearing Tsurara's confession was, suddenly, a BIG thing. Like Tsurara should not like/love him if she doesn't support what he's doing (swindling)..& stating that she's the one who perfectly & truly loves Kurosaki. Duh. She's annoying. Oh, ya. She also found out about Kurosaki's past. Duh again.
Yukari: Tsurara. I looked for Kurosaki-san just now but he's not in. Maybe he's out doing his work again.
Tsurara: I don't know.
Y: You are still against him being a swindler, right?
T: Of course.
Y: Why are you strongly against him, anyway? Kurosaki-san obviously saved the victims.
T: He did, ne... I also had the same thoughts. That perhaps what he's doing is the same as my reason to become a lawyer.
Y: Isn't that good?
T: But I don't think I could approve of his way. It's a crime after all. Although I don't know much.. Ah! I have to go. See you tomorrow.
Y: Emm. *realises Tsurara forgot her book* *newspaper article on Kurosaki's past*
Anyway. My favourite scene is this.
Kashina was beating Kurosaki until Tsurara stopped him.
[This really confuses me. Kurosaki can't fight? Or at least he should have defend himself! Why is he letting himself being beaten?]
T: Stop! Stop it! Do you think that you're a policeman, you can do whatever you want?
T: *looks at Kurosaki's condition* Are you alright? *takes her and Kurosaki's bag* *helps Kurosaki get up*
K: Let me go.
T: It's alright. Don't talk anymore.
[Isn't that cute? Tsurara's protecting him! Lol dunno why this reminds me of a scene in Full House where Ji-eun protected Young-jae from being beaten by his father. haha]
Then, Tsurara brought him home. That was the first time she's been in Kurosaki's room which is full of his swindling prop. She even saw Kurosaki's family photo.
Kurosaki: *slowly gaining concious* *saw Tsurara* *sighs* You are still here? *try to get up*
Tsurara: Are you alright?
K: Nothing to do with you.
T: You've gone through this kind of memory... Why do you want to continue being a swindler? I thought time will heal the wounds. But, continuing like this, you'll never be able to get over it! The wounds will only become deeper. That kind of life..is too painful.
K: You asked me before that if I'm happy... I don't need happiness. I don't want anything. The same thing goes to friendship, love & sympathy. Can you stop now? Quickly, get out.
[This is really heartwrenching... he doesn't have hopes for this world anymore....(& Love the background music-- piano version of Daite Senorita!) ]
Ending Scene
Tsurara: What is it?
Yukari: *shows her the newspaper article* Kurosaki-san became a swindler because he wants to seek revenge for his family, right? Tsurara, you knew about this but you are still against him.
T: Revenge doesn't bring anything. I also don't think seeking revenge would bring him to anywhere. He will only be more more hurt, isn't it?
Y: Tsurara, you don't understand..the feeling of a person who doesn't love anyone...** That's why, you can't say you like/love him. I overheard your confession. You know what I feel too... why?
T: Sorry.
Y: I also like/love Kurosaki-san. That's why I can accept his doings. I think that's what liking/loving someone really means. My words...could understand Kurosaki-san...
The NEXT eps looks fun. haha
Something Tsurara said caught my attention. But it's hard to translate.
& the part where Yukari said, "Ganbatte kudasai ne..."
Kurosaki said : "You're TOO loud!"
~Just ignore the thing on his eyes~
Haha.
....& interesting too.
~ I wonder if Kurosaki has started liking Tsurara already... Cos why does he eagerly want Tsurara to move out quickly? It's like he's afraid that Tsurara will "have a place" in his heart. (Lol as if it haven't happened) I don't think Kurosaki likes other ppl to enter his room. But Tsurara did. Again, it's like Tsurara trying to enter his world & Kurosaki doesn't want her to but somewhat can't help it. Moreover the cold & cool Kurosaki talks to her, I mean, he answers what she asks (sort of).. whereas he can JUST ignore her, right? That must meant something (I think).
~ And about Tsurara liking/loving Kurosaki... Yeah, it *seems* started from sympathy.. but now I can see that she doesn't want him to suffer & get more hurt. She wants to "save" him & pull him from the darkness he's been living the past 5/6 years. Yes. Her love is growing. Growing fast.
