Saya sama!
Kato. Tell me about my father.
He was a warrior.
The bravest hunter there was.
How did he tell demons apart from humans?
He stared straight into their eyes...
...and he could see they had no souls.
Demons can assume human flesh...
...but they can't conjure up human soul.
Heaven put demons into the world...
...to test our virtues.
If Heaven intended for demons to live among us...
...why do we kill them?
In life we all have duties.
To fulfill our duties is serving Heaven's will.
The rest is not for us to question.
Saya!
Your father was slain...
...by Onigen...
...the oldest, vilest demon of them all.
It's your destiny...
...to avenge him...
...to continue his mission.
Are you determined, my girl?
Yes, Kato.
I'm sorry, sir, ma'am.
The Onsen opens 24 hours. Feel free to enjoy anytime.
Anything else you need? I see you have no luggage.
- I'm a demon? - No!
You have a human soul!
What is it? She's near?
Saya! Saya sama!
What's happened?
Come, my girl. We have to go.
Take your father's sword!
I don't understand.
This sword has gathered dark powers...
...from all the demons it has slain.
It's a blessing...
...and a curse.
One you're not yet ready for.
But we have no time.
Demons have found us.
Kato...
Don't come out till I tell you to!
Don't follow me!
We go together!
No!
Kato.
It's time to be on your own, my girl.
What are you going to do?
My duty.
No, Kato!
Stay out of sight...
...until you're truly ready to face the demons.
Now go and don't look back.
