1. Causes of death are many and varied.
Old age, suicide, illness...
Copy !req
2. But the cause of death that scares
the most people in this day and age...
Copy !req
3. is death by fire.
Copy !req
4. —It's too hot!
—It's too hot!
Copy !req
5. Captain Shinmon! Where did you go?
Copy !req
6. You can't tell us you've forgotten about us!
Copy !req
7. "Episode 24:
Signs of Upheaval"
Copy !req
8. We came here to learn how to use
Hysterical Strength of a Fire Scene!
Copy !req
9. Captain Shinmon! What is the purpose of this?
Copy !req
10. Captain Shinmon, what is the purpose of that?
Copy !req
11. I don't know. It's proto-nationalist hazing.
Copy !req
12. Hysterical Strength of a Fire Scene
Copy !req
13. is a power beyond the limits
of the limits of one's strength.
Copy !req
14. So this is also necessary to overcome
the limits of the limits of one's strength.
Copy !req
15. Konro did this to me when I was a kid.
Copy !req
16. Ah.
Copy !req
17. It's called Hysterical Strength of a Fire Scene.
It's no exaggeration to say
Copy !req
18. that when someone can use
this Hysterical Strength at will,
Copy !req
19. they become a full-fledged hikeshi.
Copy !req
20. And the captain of the 8th?
He's God's gift to Hysterical Strength.
Copy !req
21. That man is the model of
what a hikeshi should be.
Copy !req
22. Captain Obi?
Copy !req
23. Nobody else who is unpowered
can do the things he can.
Copy !req
24. Wh-What is the purpose of this?
Copy !req
25. What is...
Copy !req
26. the purpose...
Copy !req
27. of this?
Copy !req
28. What is...
Copy !req
29. the purpose...
Copy !req
30. We're roasted over a fire...
dragged through town behind a wagon...
Copy !req
31. dipped undressed and upside-down
in water... then spun around...
Copy !req
32. What is... the purpose of this...?
Copy !req
33. Hysterical Strength of a Fire Scene
Copy !req
34. requires you to go beyond
the limit of your limits.
Copy !req
35. Right...
Copy !req
36. I said the same thing when Konro did this to me.
Copy !req
37. And...?
Copy !req
38. I'm sure there was some reason for all of this.
Copy !req
39. I never actually checked, though.
Copy !req
40. "Huh..."
Copy !req
41. Huh...?
Copy !req
42. "Seriously?"
Copy !req
43. Okay, let's do this.
Copy !req
44. Was there really no point to all of that, sir?
Copy !req
45. I don't know. Are you going to
worry about every little thing?
Copy !req
46. —Hey, screw you, man!
—What the hell was all that?
Copy !req
47. —Die, damn you!
—That was complete abuse of power!
Copy !req
48. Maybe it's the hazing,
but you have a lot of pent-up anger.
Copy !req
49. Nice. I can feel the breath of life
in every one of your attacks.
Copy !req
50. I can even sense you trying to kill me.
Copy !req
51. Of course you can, sir!
It's the bitterness from our anger!
Copy !req
52. Whoa, are you okay?
Copy !req
53. That's going too far!
Copy !req
54. Anger begets anger. If you turn
your bloodlust on someone,
Copy !req
55. that bloodlust is guaranteed
to come right back to you.
Copy !req
56. You two have learned
the breath of life. Your lives,
Copy !req
57. your friends' lives, your enemies' lives...
the importance of all life.
Copy !req
58. But you still take it too lightly.
Copy !req
59. To face a fire scene
Copy !req
60. is to cast yourselves into the purifying fires
of the Wisdom King Acala.
Copy !req
61. The moment you drop your guard
will be your last.
Copy !req
62. Acala's flames will come and
snuff your breath of life right out.
Copy !req
63. What you sense past the breath of life is...
Copy !req
64. "The Press of Death"
Copy !req
65. Look alive! Or Acala will claim your life.
Copy !req
66. How? He's faster than my Rapid!
Copy !req
67. That was a simple kick and palm strike...
Copy !req
68. This is the Hysterical Strength of a Fire Scene?
Copy !req
69. —We're not...
—... done yet!
Copy !req
70. I'm not done yet...!
Copy !req
71. D-Damn...
Copy !req
72. They've been at it for five hours.
Copy !req
73. They've used up all the oxygen
in their bodies. They're blacking out.
Copy !req
74. If they keep this up any longer,
Copy !req
75. they'll develop tephrosis.
Copy !req
76. Overheated?
Copy !req
77. Captain Shinmon, isn't that
enough training for one day?
Copy !req
78. Training? I don't remember even starting that.
Copy !req
79. Get up. The training begins now.
Copy !req
80. Hey, Konro, are you here?
Copy !req
81. Wah! The captain of the 5th?
Are you here to have Waka train you, too?
Copy !req
82. Don't be ridiculous.
I'm a researcher, not a barbarian.
Copy !req
83. I've come to hear all about
the story you mentioned yesterday,
Copy !req
84. about when you fought that demon two years ago.
Copy !req
85. Hmm? Yesterday?
You mean about the doppelganger?
Copy !req
86. Yeah, that's right.
I want to hear more about it.
Copy !req
87. You want to hear more? I don't know what to say.
Copy !req
88. There isn't anything more than
what I said yesterday. Anyhow,
Copy !req
89. why don't you come in?
Copy !req
90. I thought as much, so we're here
to take it up with you physically.
Copy !req
91. Please go on in.
Copy !req
92. There's someone else with you?
Copy !req
93. Special Fire Force Company 6
Captain Kayoko Huang.
Copy !req
94. Kayoko-san, this is the one.
Copy !req
95. I'll start with a palpatory exam.
Copy !req
96. What are they doing to me?
Copy !req
97. What's the matter? Get up, already.
Copy !req
98. The training is just starting?
Copy !req
99. If you keep this up any longer,
they're going to get tephrosis!
Copy !req
100. This training is to push them
beyond their limits.
Copy !req
101. Now, stand up!
Copy !req
102. I was... never going... to quit...
Copy !req
103. in the... first place...
Copy !req
104. That just sounds like bravado to me.
Copy !req
105. Just standing there getting hit
is the same as quitting.
Copy !req
106. Come on, what's wrong with you?
Move, or you're dead.
Copy !req
107. Your enemy isn't going to wait for you.
Copy !req
108. I know that... sir...
Copy !req
109. All the oxygen in my body... I can't breathe...
Copy !req
110. I can feel my own life burning...
Copy !req
111. My consciousness...
Copy !req
112. is fading...
Copy !req
113. A fire scene...?
Copy !req
114. The purifying flame of Acala...
Copy !req
115. A fire scene... I'm in
the middle of a fire scene...
Copy !req
116. Shinra!
Copy !req
117. Shinra!
Copy !req
118. Is this...?
Copy !req
119. But I'm in Asakusa right now...
Copy !req
120. Sho...
Copy !req
121. Mom...
Copy !req
122. If I don't do something, I'll be killed.
Copy !req
123. I don't ever want to lose them again.
Copy !req
124. Precious life... Unique...
Copy !req
125. Once it's gone, there's no getting it back.
Copy !req
126. Tension and fear are making me stiffen up.
Copy !req
127. If I don't move, I'll die.
Copy !req
128. I'll be killed. Once I'm dead, it's all over.
Copy !req
129. Am I just a coward?
Copy !req
130. Am I going to let this end
without doing something?
Copy !req
131. What do I do? What can I do?
Copy !req
132. I've used up everything that I have.
There isn't anything left.
Copy !req
133. So what can I do?
Copy !req
134. "So what can I do"
Copy !req
135. "Survival instinct"
Copy !req
136. Survival instinct.
Copy !req
137. The strain of death is making me smile.
Copy !req
138. "Pinch of Energy"
Copy !req
139. A Pinch of Energy.
Copy !req
140. What is the fear of death giving me?
Copy !req
141. "The Press of Death"
Copy !req
142. "The Press of Death"
Copy !req
143. Those flames— Now you're cooking.
Copy !req
144. Have you learned anything?
Copy !req
145. Your flame is not special, nor different
from the flames of other pyrokinetics.
Copy !req
146. And if your flame has
no special characteristics,
Copy !req
147. then there must be some other trigger
for you to Adolla Link.
Copy !req
148. Lieutenant Konro, both you
and Captain Hague from the 4th
Copy !req
149. underwent your Adolla Links
during the Great Fire.
Copy !req
150. There were major flames,
and many people's deaths.
Copy !req
151. Perhaps something about that
served as the trigger.
Copy !req
152. Kayoko-san,
Copy !req
153. you just said his flame was
no different from a normal one.
Copy !req
154. Having actually touched an Adolla Burst,
Copy !req
155. is there anything different about it
that sets it apart from normal flames?
Copy !req
156. Is something the matter?
Copy !req
157. No, it's nothing.
Copy !req
158. I'm going to go around and
ask the others who have had Adolla Links.
Copy !req
159. I know Captain Hague is
someone else who carries a stigma.
Copy !req
160. Talking to him might reveal something.
Copy !req
161. I bear a holy scar,
and the White-Clad came after me.
Copy !req
162. Are we sure the captain is safe?
Copy !req
163. We'd better hurry.
Copy !req
164. Good! Yes, very good!
Copy !req
165. You are someone with considerable skill.
Copy !req
166. Who are you? I assume you are
a member of the White-Clad.
Copy !req
167. You who bear a stigma, I have come for you.
Copy !req
168. A golden arm...
Copy !req
169. How did you... get behind me...?
Copy !req
170. There is nothing behind you.
Copy !req
171. The protectors are not the only
weapons the Evangelist has.
Copy !req
172. What exactly... are you?
Copy !req
173. A Destroyer.
Copy !req
174. A Fire Soldier's duty is to protect
human lives and property.
Copy !req
175. But one's own life is the most important thing.
Copy !req
176. Without one's life, lives that may
have been saved can no longer be.
Copy !req
177. Látom.
Copy !req
178. Látom.
Copy !req
179. The death of one of your men sure takes a toll.
Copy !req
180. Pan, always make rational decisions,
always act sensibly,
Copy !req
181. and at a scene, always treat your
own person with great care.
Copy !req
182. We are not heroes. We are human,
just like the victims of these fires.
Copy !req
183. Do you aspire to be a hero, sir?
Copy !req
184. Good question.
Copy !req
185. I think it would be nice if there were
such beings beyond our understanding.
Copy !req
186. Help me get him down from there.
Copy !req
187. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
188. There's no sign of any struggle in here.
Copy !req
189. Are we sure that Captain Hague
didn't take his own life?
Copy !req
190. Captain Hague has been different
ever since the Great Fire two years ago.
Copy !req
191. But he's not someone who would
willingly throw his life away.
Copy !req
192. Then that means...
Copy !req
193. that Captain Hague was done in
without any chance to fight back.
Copy !req
194. This was a significantly dangerous foe.
Copy !req
195. He's burning so quietly.
But also, incredibly hot.
Copy !req
196. He's starting to get the hang of it.
Copy !req
197. Captain Hague?
Copy !req
198. In an Adolla Link?
Copy !req
199. Not yet! Not yet! Not yet!
Copy !req
200. Not yet!
Copy !req
201. Not yet, not yet!
Copy !req
202. This is what it is to die.
Hysterical Strength of a Fire Scene—
Copy !req
203. I can't yet... I can't yet die here!
Copy !req
204. Captain Shimon, is that...?
Copy !req
205. Yeah. The flame beyond
the limits of one's limits.
Copy !req
206. They're doing it.
Copy !req
207. All right, that's enough,
both of you. Nicely done.
Copy !req
208. Get so you can go through
that sensation at any time.
Copy !req
209. What... have I done?
Copy !req
210. Looks like the training is
right on schedule for the first day.
Copy !req
211. What is it, Shinra?
Copy !req
212. That was the "Press of Death."
Copy !req
213. "The Press of Death"
Copy !req
214. Captain Hague is dead?
Copy !req
215. Captain Hague's death was written up
as a suicide, owing to his masochism.
Copy !req
216. However, the unusual condition of his body,
pierced head to toe with stakes,
Copy !req
217. made for a gruesome sight that was
utterly inconceivable as a suicide.
Copy !req
218. Okay then...
Copy !req
219. Waka, Hague over at the 4th was...
Copy !req
220. The White-Clad may come around here again.
Copy !req
221. Konro, don't go off on your own
and do anything behind my back.
Copy !req
222. Shinra and the others were saying
Copy !req
223. that the time had come
for the empire to be united.
Copy !req
224. As long as it benefits Asakusa
and the 8th, it's fine with me.
Copy !req
225. The flame is the soul's breath.
The black smoke is the soul's release.
Copy !req
226. Ashes thou wert and art.
Copy !req
227. May thy soul return to the great flame of fire.
Copy !req
228. Látom.
Copy !req
229. Captain Hague appears to have
been killed in the line of duty.
Copy !req
230. Captain Burns, since you also
possess a stigma, please be careful.
Copy !req
231. Perhaps you should consider having a bodyguard.
Copy !req
232. This is a trial being bestowed upon us by God.
Copy !req
233. As such, the 1st must set an example
Copy !req
234. as followers of the Holy Sol Temple.
Copy !req
235. We must demonstrate to all others by our conduct
Copy !req
236. that we will never back down
from this kind of terrorism.
Copy !req
237. May the flame of Sol be with us...
Copy !req
238. that we become the swords of God...
Copy !req
239. and dispel the darkness.
Copy !req
240. Okay, let's go and take this country back.
Copy !req
241. How does the sky feel after all this time?
Copy !req
242. Mm-hmm...
Copy !req
243. It is about to begin—
Copy !req
244. a new era for humanity!
Copy !req
245. Shinra, Arthur, Tamaki, it sounds like
your training in Asakusa went well.
Copy !req
246. Good work, all three of you.
Copy !req
247. —Thank you very much!
—Thank you very much!
Copy !req
248. Also, thanks to all of our operations so far,
Copy !req
249. we've managed to form partnerships
with each of the other companies.
Copy !req
250. After the incident with Nataku Son,
Copy !req
251. we've even managed to find
common cause with Haijima Industries.
Copy !req
252. That's right. When we started,
the 8th was fighting all on its own.
Copy !req
253. But before we knew it,
we managed to gain all these allies.
Copy !req
254. The darkness is illuminated
Copy !req
255. The days we've grown accustomed
to walking are weeded out
Copy !req
256. My dream might be to make a stable living
Copy !req
257. but I'll moan over the lack of stimulation
Copy !req
258. The end is illuminated
Copy !req
259. Where are the streets we're
accustomed to walking?
Copy !req
260. Time can sometimes be irksome,
Copy !req
261. but we're enveloped in warmth
Copy !req
262. Flames rise to show us the way
Copy !req
263. The enemy is a mighty one.
There is still much we don't know.
Copy !req
264. But we have friends we can rely on
and allies who will stand with us.
Copy !req
265. reminding us of a gentle melody
Copy !req
266. Now is the time to muster all of our strength
to take down the White-Clad!
Copy !req
267. There is no eternity, none at all, they say
Copy !req
268. I just smile, thinking that's fine with me
Copy !req
269. Just you wait, Evangelist!
Copy !req
270. We're gonna kick your ass,
and protect the Tokyo Empire!
Copy !req
271. If we shine, someday, our light will go out
Copy !req
272. That's the reason why we...
Copy !req
273. We'll keep on walking until the day
Copy !req
274. why the Special Fire Force is uniting!
Copy !req
275. the fire of our lives gets doused
Copy !req
276. "Fire Force, Season 2"
Copy !req
277. Playthings that make sounds
Copy !req
278. and magic that chases pain away
Copy !req
279. are all precious treasures to me
Copy !req
280. There is no eternity, none at all, they say
Copy !req
281. We'll keep on walking until the day
Copy !req
282. the fire of our lives gets doused
Copy !req
283. I see it... It's streaming in...
Copy !req
284. The world under a new sun...
Copy !req
285. The empire will become as it should be!
Copy !req
286. "See you later"
Copy !req
