I Love You! This Is So Extreme!
It's Time to Confess!
Episode 13 begins in the early morning
hours of the day during a thunderstorm in Tokyo. City workers have gone
down a manhole and they are talking about the damage that has been done by the
strange monsters that keep appearing. While they are talking, Murakumo
shows up and tells them that humans aren't allowed. They begin to scream
and the scene dissolves in a flash of blinding light.
Back at Mr. Kunikida's house, Momiji is having a
dream. Someone is calling her, but she can't tell who it is. She
wakes up, focused on the dream and there is a flash of lightning. She
dives under the covers, her rear end sticking up in the air and hears a laugh:
Kusanagi. "You hide your head, but not your butt? No wonder
the storm won't go away!"
Momiji jerks her head from beneath the blankets and starts
screaming at him for coming into her room without asking. But Kusanagi's
not really listening. He sees a camera and decides to take a
picture.
The story switches gears and we see the news, where
Sugishita is being interviewed regarding all the strange attacks that have
been occurring. Momiji is looking at her newly developed pictures while
she listens with half an ear to what he's saying and we see the picture of her
and Kusanagi together.
Back at the TAC office, the rest of the members are
listening to Sugishita's report as well, with Kome grumbling about his
shameless plugs in self promotion: "Director this director
that..." Momiji comes in to the lab for Matsu to do some tests on
and she drops her wallet containing the new picture of her and Kusanagi.
Kome sees it and takes it from her, saying, "I KNEW it! You guys
did it, didn't you?"
The story switches scenes once more. This time all of
the girls of the TAC (plus poor Yaegashi) are sitting around a table drinking
coffee, talking about Kusanagi and how to let him know that Momiji likes
him. During the course of conversation, each girls expresses what she
likes in a man and Yaegashi can't help making several digs about Kome's
preferences, which win a good beating from Kome ^_^. In the end, it's
Yaegashi who comes up with the solution to Momiji's problem.
He whips out a pair of panties that say, "I love
you." and gives them to Momiji. While the women of the TAC are
"fixing" Momiji up with her new apparel, Sugishita calls and talks
to Kunikida about recent possible Aragami activity. Kunikida decides to
investigate and he goes after everyone, bursting into the room while Kome is
writing the words Mr. Kusanagi below the "I love you" on Momiji's
underpants.
Everyone quickly leaves, but Kunikida stops Momiji and
wishes her luck, if she decides to tell him. On the way to the site,
Momiji has a nice daydream about Kusanagi discovering her underwear in which
he tells her that he loves her. But even in her dream, before they can
kiss, Ryoko slams on her brakes and Momiji jams her head against the
back of the driver's seat, interrupting her dream.
They arrive at the scene of disturbances and Matsu asks
Momiji if she senses anything. Momiji stops and concentrates, but
doesn't feel anything but Kusanagi (which is HIGHLY ironic, considering that
just below them, the subway is TEEMING with Aragami activity) Kusanagi
is sitting on top a car, watching Momiji and when everyone turns and spies
him, Kome goes forward to greet him, pulling Momiji with her.
Kome starts asking Kusanagi all kinds of personal
questions: is he currently seeing anyone? What he thinks of
Momiji..... Her questions are interrupted however, when Momiji's mitama
starts to glow and she goes into a trance-like state. She is being
called and she starts talking to the one summoning her. She starts to
rise up off the ground and Kusanagi tries to stop her, but when he reaches for
her, he gets shocked. There is a protective shield surrounding her, so
all he can do is try and follow her.
Momiji travels through the subway until she reaches a stone
wall. She puts her hand out and a door appears. Traveling down
this passageway she comes across Murakumo who also tries to stop her but
receives a shock when he touches her. When Momiji finally awakens, she
is in a chamber and Susano-oh has just been reborn. Kusanagi comes after
her and confronts Murakumo who is unwilling to fight him because he doesn't
want anything to happen to Lord Susano-oh.
Then, Murakumo summons Kaede who steps out and takes the
baby. Kusanagi is left momentarily speechless by the sight of her, but
quickly regains his speech as he attempts to go after her. The cave they
are in is collapsing and Momiji stops Kusanagi as the wall closes up behind
Murakumo and Kaede leaving Kusanagi and Momiji in the crumbling chamber all
alone.
The story switches once again to the members of the TAC
standing on a bridge overlooking the river talking about Murakumo's plans to
rid the world of all the vile humans. Momiji is standing next to
Kusanagi who is sitting lost in thought against a building, mumbling Kaede's
name. Momiji tries to comfort him by telling him that he'll probably see
her sister again someday and then a breeze blows the back of her skirt
up. Thinking that perhaps, Kusanagi has seen her panties, Momiji starts
mumbling about them and then blurts out that she is in love with him.
The episode ends with Momiji standing there watching Kusanagi staring at
nothing in particular and she is left wondering whether he heard her or not.
