Daemons of the Shadow Realm (2026) s01e02 Episode Script

Father, what is this?
A passageway connecting the
Left and Right to the keep.
I had no clue this was here.
The lord had this secret passageway made
back when this village was a castle.
Only a few people know about it.
Don't tell anyone else.
Only use it when you have to.
The Left and Right's bases at
the village exit are above us.
Listen to me, Yuru.
The Left and Right are
always watching over you.
We've been here watchin'
you this whole time, Yuru.
Henceforth, we are your Daemons.
You're the Left and Right?
All the pain I've experienced
Has traveled through my veins
And passed through my heart
By the time I've forgotten, it arrives
In my brain
I guess it's not that bad
But there's this tiny little draft
Of resentment and sadness
Just let me have this
I'm spineless
All my words and tears
And these feathers grown from my feelings
I'll put all of them on my back
Well, see you later
I'll leave it all behind here
I'm not scared
Up in the sky
See these feathers flutter in the wind
And follow along
So this crybaby is our master?
Don't, Right. You're upsetting our master.
Hello, Left and Right.
Nice to meet you.
You're Dera, the Daemon retainer.
We've been watching you, too.
We took down those birds since
they seemed to be harmin' you,
but what were they?
They're vehicles of the
modern world below.
But we don't have time to chat.
At least two threats have shown up.
Help us get down the mountain
quickly and safely.
Dera.
You are not our master.
Our master is Yuru.
We obey his orders.
I know, but there's no time to
explain the situation to him.
Ugh.
Those look strong.
Whose Daemons are you? The old guy's?
What is that tooth monster?!
What did I tell you? They're here!
And they're perfectly fine after
I hit them with a grenade!
Don't underestimate my
Daemons' toughness.
And don't call them monsters. Rude.
Let's see A sixteen-year-old boy.
Are you Yuru?
Me? I'm seventeen.
By traditional counting.
The world below considers you sixteen.
What's that?
I see. So you're Asa's brother.
Asa?
I'm here to kill everyone else.
Why don't you come with me?
Are you the ones who
killed the villagers?
We sure are.
Master Yuru, give the word,
and we'll do whatever you command.
I won't command you to do anything.
You're the village's guardian deities.
I wouldn't dare give you orders.
But I do have two requests.
First, there should be survivors.
Take them to a safe place.
And second
That runt is mine. Don't touch her.
Aside from that, do as you please.
Lucky us, Left.
Our new master is hands off.
Understood!
Granny Yamaha.
We'll never forgive you.
You'll pay for what you've done.
He's hands off.
Understood!
I'll take the villagers to a safe place.
Watch out. My other half is hot-blooded.
What?!
I'm just following my master's orders.
I'll do as I please.
A second arrow!
Those Daemons are tough.
I'll go get her!
Hey! Oh, come on!
Why is this happening?
I'm begging you, let's
get off this mountain.
Hey, are you alive? Hey.
Oh, you are alive.
This must be someone else's blood.
You're uninjured. That's good.
Oh, right. You can't see me.
Don't worry. I'm no monster.
I'll take you somewhere safe.
Oh?
Seriously?
Everyone fainted when they saw me.
That hurts, you know?
They showed no mercy to the adults,
but they didn't hurt the kids.
You can see me, can't you?
Not even a hello?
That's a dangerous power
you've got there.
I'll give you a fight if that's what
you want, but my master's orders—
Kids these days just don't listen!
That girl
You can't be serious!
It's two against one!
A second one?!
Asa!
Damn it!
Gabby-chan!
Thanks, Asa.
Don't move!
Who are you? Speak.
I'm your sister, Asa, Brother.
Liar! Asa's not that big!
The world below has better
access to nutrition.
Asa doesn't glare like that.
I've been through a lot.
I'm jaded, okay?
Hey!
Ain't good for family to fight!
This girl's blood smells
just like yours, Yuru.
You're siblings.
What?!
Then who's the Asa up in the keep?
An impostor.
Ten years ago, after our parents
took me and fled the village,
Granny and the others feared
you'd run away, too.
So they created an impostor
to keep you here.
You're a kind and caring older brother.
You wouldn't leave as long as
Asa was still in the village.
That Asa is fake.
Now that you've had your touching reunion,
do you mind backing off, Asa-chan?
Dera-san!
You're the one they're after.
We still don't know what the
allegedly real Asa is capable of.
And if you stay, the village
could suffer more damage.
There are still survivors, right?
Hey.
Don't hurt any more villagers.
I'll let the runt go, so withdraw.
Fine.
Asa!
Later.
Ow
Why aren't we capturing him?
Because your wounds need tending,
and we know he's safe now.
Ow
Are you okay?
You know, your brother sure is merciless.
Yeah.
He's skilled.
Yeah.
He's alive.
Yeah.
He's alive.
My brother's alive.
The barrier is returning.
We should get off the mountain quickly.
Those helicopters sure were loud.
What was that about?
Maybe someone needed rescuing.
A lot of people go missing
in these mountains.
A bunch of them have never been found.
Maybe it's like that spooky story.
You know the one
The lost village!
Yeah, that.
Hikers suddenly wander
into another world.
There's a village where
there shouldn't be one.
Even if they go back later,
there's no trace of it.
Hello!
Oh.
Hello.
Were those mountain porters?
Or traditional hunters?
The wind's so strong.
Let's hike back down.
We can't see the village anymore.
It must be back inside the barrier.
Can we not go back?
You could if you really wanted to.
But someone who knew where to find
it broke through the barrier.
They were after you, so there's
no point in hiding there.
No point in going back.
We'll blend in with the
crowd in the world below.
This way.
Whoa!
Thanks for waiting, Hana-chan.
What's going on, Senpai?
I knew you were bringing a human,
but you didn't mention Daemons!
She can see us.
Sorry.
I'll fill you in while we run.
Get us out of here.
Yuru's in danger.
This is one of the twins?
And these are the Left and Right.
What is this thing?
It's a hunk of metal.
They're not listening.
Nice to meet you, Yuru-kun.
Likewise.
I'm Hana. Dera-senpai and I work
together as Daemon retainers.
Left and Right, are there
any Daemon Wielders nearby?
Nope. None.
Nice. Then let's head somewhere crowded.
Get in, Yuru.
What is this thing?
You want me to get inside
this bizarre contraption?
Right.
It's called an automobile.
It's a vehicle of the world below.
Uh, it's made of metal and stuff,
and this lady is the driver, and
There are horses in here,
and it goes real fast!
I see.
So that's how it works.
Got it.
Seriously?
Our ride's late.
We're not still inside
the barrier, are we?
We must be outside since
we can get a signal.
Even if we were still inside,
we could just force it open again.
There they are.
Thank you for waiting.
Sounds like you ran into some trouble.
Thanks for coming, Jin-chan.
Thank you for coming all the
way up the mountain, Jin-san.
I heard new Daemons showed up.
Perhaps I should've come with you.
Load her onto the stretcher.
Gabby-chan-san, how are your wounds?
They've stopped bleeding.
I've got an arrowhead in my shoulder.
Could you take it out later?
The shot to my leg went straight through.
Those are serious injuries.
Don't talk about them like
they're minor cavities.
I'm fine. I'm used to pain.
So, since your brother isn't with you
He got away.
But you confirmed his existence, yes?
He's alive and well.
He went down the mountain.
You didn't run into him?
No, even though we secured
all the trailheads.
So they escaped another way.
Maybe they're still on the mountain.
If we had choppers
We lost two choppers
and all our soldiers.
The old man won't be happy.
Hang in there, Jin-chan.
Asa's brother fled with a
middle-aged guy called Dera.
Dera.
He's probably the one who
killed the soldiers, too.
Kagemori-san, could Dera be?
The Tadera.
Why'd we have to choose a day when a
Tadera Daemon retainer was around?
I should've brought mine after all.
Anyway, we released the Left and Right,
took down some choppers, and knocked out
the enemy Daemons on our way here.
I took out most of the soldiers I found,
but there were a bunch of them.
They even brought soldiers?
They sound like a pain in the ass.
Right? It's probably the Kagemoris.
The Kagemoris?!
They know my face and name now.
Guess I'll shave. I'll have to move, too.
I wanted to live my life in peace.
I sense Daemons approaching.
Seriously?!
Are we being followed?
Already?
Fret not.
They mean us no harm.
They're old friends.
It's good to see you
again, Left and Right.
If you're here, does that mean
you've found a new master?
Yeah. We haven't been down
the mountain in so long,
we have no idea what's goin' on.
It's been about four hundred years.
This child is our new master.
Oh, how nice. I love children.
He's one of the twins
dividin' night and day.
Well, that won't be easy.
What will you do now?
Who knows? For now, it seems we'll
be hidin' in a lively village.
I see.
Tell me about it when you return.
Safe travels.
That's the first time I've seen them!
The first time I've seen them!
The first time I've seen them!
They really do exist!
What were those things?
Don't call them things!
That was Oshirasama!
They're a legit god on a whole other
level from your average Daemon!
Legit?
The real deal!
I never thought I'd meet them
while I was still alive.
I'm so glad to be alive.
You know, in our village,
we're treated like gods.
Why the disparity in treatment?
So there are all kinds of Daemons.
There sure are. Us humans just
like sorting them into genres.
Genres?
As in types or categories,
like gods or spirits.
Some live relaxed lives alongside
humans, like Oshirasama,
others bring luck to their masters and
some encourage criminal activity.
Those dentures that attacked us
were probably a combat type.
The upper and lower jaw form a pair.
I've heard of Daemons gobbling up their
masters if they don't like them.
I'm sorry. It was my call
to let my brother go.
I'll go with you to be reprimanded.
It's not your fault, Asa.
You were protecting me.
Don't worry about it, you two.
The old man will be happy to know
he's alive and off the mountain.
No, seriously. They might've caught
me if Asa hadn't been there.
Were his Daemons that strong?
Yeah, but it was Asa's brother
who shot me with a bow.
First he shut down my mobility,
then my dominant hand.
Your brother is brutal.
He's got the mind of a hunter.
Damn.
It's coming down.
We'll get left behind if we don't
meet up with Kagemori-san soon.
We'd better hur—
It's not here
We've been here five times already.
We're screwed. We can't leave.

- So I can't leave
Hold me
So I won't start crying
A tailwind blows
A thread runs down my spine, and
when it reaches my bloodstream
Ah
I've found wings that
might let me fly again
Maybe
If you haven't left the nest yet
Then we can fly together
Flush when you're done.
Guntama Prefecture.
Guntama Prefecture.
Why do I have to marry you?!
