9화: 오가이가 소설을 완성하고 슈운소가 시력을 잃는다

Saddened that he cannot finish his romance novel in time, Ogai fears that he will lose Mei during the next full moon. The next morning at a restaurant, Mei tries to avoid talking about Ogai's romance novel when bringing up Gorō's cat café and Kyōka's play. Ogai mentions that he might stop writing for good, but Mei urges Ogai to finish his romance novel when they return to the mansion. Mei learns from Shunso that she was the inspiration behind Ogai's romance novel, which expresses Ogai's heartache when he met and left his former lover Elise during his studies abroad in Germany. After Mei finds a fountain pen near the unfinished romance novel inside Ogai's study, she is informed by Fumi that Ogai headed into town. Shunso brings Mei back to her senses when she tries to find Ogai. After Shunso spots Ogai standing near a tree at the riverbank, Mei goes to Ogai and shows her support. As Mei vows to stay by Ogai's side forever, she returns his fountain pen. Back at the mansion, Ogai manages to finish his romance novel, but Shunso gradually loses his eyesight when he struggles to complete his black cat masterpiece. (Source: Wikipedia)
