Kon-Haku (SDV 10)

-Yuyuko facing the Saigyou Ayakashi. Youmu arrives-
[0:34] (Youmu) Well mistress, I’ve returned home
(Yuyuko) So what did you think about all that the Yama said?
(Youmu) You knew that she would lecture me?
(Yuyuko) Indeed, that is where all the flowers led

[1:04] So do you now understand this?
Why your body and soul coexist?
(Youmu) I think I do (Yuyuko) And why is that?
(Youmu) Because they each are separated like this

[1:26] (Yuyuko) Yes, that is why this place is here
There’s a reason there’s a border between life and death
If you could take away that line
Then soon there would be nothing still left

[1:49] So keep in mind, we live here
There are things that happen, and we should not interfere
Even if there’s a fuss
Unless I say, it won’t concern us

[2:14] We must be impartial, or else we lose meaning and are judged like other souls
And when it comes to snacks, it is vital that you just relax

-Youmu looks up. Crumbs are falling past Yuyuko-
[2:42] (Youmu) Eh? Mistress, what was that?
(Yuyuko) No, I said nothing!
(Youmu) Is that so, mistress? Then where’s everything?

[2:57] (Yuyuko) What things do you mean?
(Youmu) The tea and senbei
(Yuyuko) Oh, did you forget? We ate them yesterday

[3:14] (Youmu) Is that so? For the viewing?
(Yuyuko) Oh yes indeed
(Youmu) But the flowers had bloomed this morning
Miss Yuyuko, please just confess.
(Yuyuko) I decided they all had to pass my taste test
(Yukari) Oh? So you’re both here? How was the judge?
I trust that she made all your “sins” clear
(Yuyuko) Hey, Yukari. We’re out of snacks
(Yukari) The party has some, don’t fear

[3:42] (Youmu) What party? (Yuyuko) The flower viewing!
It will be at the shrine later on around evening
(Youmu) Wait, mistress, what about our role?
Won’t the Yama have to judge our souls?

[3:55] (Yuyuko) Oh, Youmu. That’s silly.
There won’t be any harm in attending a party
(Yukari) By the way, do you know why this cycle’s numbered by 60?
(Yuyuko) Don’t tell me you forgot?
(Yukari) No, I’m just checking if Youmu can hazard a guess
(Youmu) Sadly not. I must say, I have no clue why that is

[4:22] (Yukari) Anyway, the viewing
(Yuyuko) I was right! You really don’t remember the last time!
(Yukari) I don’t think I’m going if the Yama arrives at the shrine

[4:35] (Yuyuko) Are you scared of the judge?
(Yukari) There is just no way you can reason with her, can you?
Don’t do this! Sinning that! 
Who wants to listen to all that? (Yuyuko) True
