1. They're just some guns...
Copy !req
2. Maybe we should put the soldiers in the front.
Copy !req
3. You want to use them as shields!
Copy !req
4. But without our magic, there's no way we can...
Copy !req
5. I do think it will be difficult to dispel it from outside.
Copy !req
6. All of our specialists are being held captive
inside the academy.
Copy !req
7. We can't go through the woods!
There's barbed wire everywhere!
Copy !req
8. I'm more concerned about the tunnels.
Copy !req
9. If they've managed to cut off access
to the outside so thoroughly...
Copy !req
10. Do you think they have a spy in the school?
Copy !req
11. You mean Zenon wasn't the only one?
Copy !req
12. They don't need to tie us up.
Copy !req
13. Without our magic, there's nothing we can do.
Copy !req
14. Even if we did have our magic...
Copy !req
15. We did it!
Copy !req
16. Impressive.
Copy !req
17. Yes! We did it!
Copy !req
18. Now I can control the Eye of Avarice
and stop it from shutting off our magic!
Copy !req
19. So? What about those hidden tunnels?
Copy !req
20. Right! According to what Father told me...
Copy !req
21. Now I can go help my father!
Copy !req
22. Yeah...
Copy !req
23. I love this stuff!
Copy !req
24. All of this, I'll risk it now
Copy !req
25. I just stretch out my hand until reaches my ideals
Copy !req
26. The choices that extend before my eyes
Copy !req
27. The gears of good and evil go on
Copy !req
28. Toward just one conclusion
Copy !req
29. Everything is a Choice of chance
Copy !req
30. And a signal to the next step
Copy !req
31. To the edge of possibility
Copy !req
32. I gaze at that destination
Copy !req
33. Only one, I don't need anything else
Copy !req
34. I only want to fix my gaze, to the one
Copy !req
35. I will never yield this belief and determination
Copy !req
36. I'll keep them hidden in my heart
Copy !req
37. Highest, highest, I'm going on
Copy !req
38. Go to the shadows that are truer than truth
Copy !req
39. Highest, highest, I'll carry on
Copy !req
40. Right or wrong, if you desire, maintain your aloofness
Copy !req
41. Mom...
Copy !req
42. The world has lost a great woman.
Copy !req
43. Your mother was an exceptional researcher.
Copy !req
44. But more than that, she was a dear friend.
Copy !req
45. If you're not opposed to it, you can come stay with me.
Copy !req
46. Father gave me as much love and affection
as he would his own flesh and blood.
Copy !req
47. He even supported the research my mother left behind.
Copy !req
48. So now, it's my turn.
Copy !req
49. I hope your dad is okay.
Copy !req
50. Oh, Cid, thank you for everything.
Copy !req
51. I only helped out a little, that's all.
Copy !req
52. There's nothing left for me to do.
Copy !req
53. It's all up to you now.
Go save the world.
Copy !req
54. I'll try!
Copy !req
55. Where is he?
Copy !req
56. What is taking Rex so long?
Copy !req
57. We haven't seen him or any of the guards.
Copy !req
58. Ms. President...
Copy !req
59. Don't even try.
Copy !req
60. As we are now, we can't even
block bullets, let alone swords.
Copy !req
61. Besides, the dense magical energy emanating
from him is in a whole other league.
Copy !req
62. I don't know if we could beat him,
even if we did have our magic back.
Copy !req
63. But we can't just sit here!
Copy !req
64. I know that!
Copy !req
65. I have to try!
Copy !req
66. Yo, that's bull's eye number two!
Copy !req
67. But man, they're pathetic,
letting these commoners' toys take 'em out.
Copy !req
68. They're a disgrace to the name of Dark Knight!
Put pressure on the wound!
Copy !req
69. Quiet down!
Copy !req
70. Ms. President!
Copy !req
71. President Rose!
Copy !req
72. We can't!
Copy !req
73. They're going to kill us all!
Copy !req
74. This is humiliating!
Copy !req
75. That's...
Copy !req
76. Father...
Copy !req
77. I'm coming!
Copy !req
78. What is that light?
Copy !req
79. What happened?
Copy !req
80. Ms. President?
Copy !req
81. Our magic has been unsealed!
Copy !req
82. It's time to fight back!
Copy !req
83. Take their swords!
Copy !req
84. Surround them!
Copy !req
85. Secure an escape route!
Copy !req
86. Dammit!
Copy !req
87. What are you doing?
Copy !req
88. Kill them.
Copy !req
89. Y-yes, sir!
Copy !req
90. Reinforcements!
Copy !req
91. They're strong!
Reinforcements!
Copy !req
92. They're strong!
Outnumber them!
Copy !req
93. Younger students, get us some swords!
Copy !req
94. Even just training swords!
Copy !req
95. Science students, evacuate! Now!
Copy !req
96. We haven't gotten back the magic
they took from us!
Copy !req
97. Before I run out completely,
Copy !req
98. I have to get him!
Copy !req
99. Is this the end?
Copy !req
100. No!
Copy !req
101. Even if I die here,
the others will carry on without me.
Copy !req
102. Just like I...
Copy !req
103. am carrying on the legacy of his love for me!
Copy !req
104. What was that?
Copy !req
105. Well done, my beautiful sword wielder.
Copy !req
106. What...
Copy !req
107. We are Shadow Garden.
Copy !req
108. We lurk in the shadows.
Copy !req
109. We hunt the shadows.
Copy !req
110. This our chance!
Leave the auditorium!
Copy !req
111. Carry the injured!
Copy !req
112. Yes, ma'am!
Hurry!
Copy !req
113. Where's Father?
Copy !req
114. I don't see him anywhere!
Copy !req
115. Fire! And it's spreading!
Copy !req
116. Ms. President!
Copy !req
117. Use sword pressure to open a path!
Copy !req
118. Just get everyone out of here!
Copy !req
119. They did this in their own territory?
Copy !req
120. A very bold move.
Copy !req
121. Lady Gamma...
Copy !req
122. Oh, dear, what a disaster.
Copy !req
123. What's going on in there?
Copy !req
124. We don't know!
Copy !req
125. One second, we had our magic back,
the next there were flames all over the school!
Copy !req
126. And there are bodies of dead intruders everywhere!
Copy !req
127. Anyway, hurry and put out the fires!
Copy !req
128. The students that were being held hostage...
Copy !req
129. Princess Rose!
Copy !req
130. Princess Iris...
Copy !req
131. Our magic suddenly came back,
and then these fires broke out everywhere.
Copy !req
132. What happened in there?
Copy !req
133. A mysterious organization appeared
and wiped out the terrorists.
Copy !req
134. They called themselves "Shadow Garden."
Copy !req
135. And you're sure that's what they said?
Copy !req
136. Yes, but the terrorists went by the same name.
Copy !req
137. Just who are they?
Copy !req
138. We have retrieved all of the necessary articles.
Copy !req
139. Well done.
Copy !req
140. All that's left is...
Copy !req
141. He wasn't in the auditorium!
Copy !req
142. Father, where are you?
Copy !req
143. What are you doing in that costume...
Copy !req
144. Assistant Principal Lutheran Barnett?
Copy !req
145. Cid Kagenou...
Copy !req
146. How did you know?
Copy !req
147. One look, and it was obvious.
Copy !req
148. I see.
Copy !req
149. It was the way I walk, or the way I stand.
Copy !req
150. You have a good eye.
Copy !req
151. Can I ask you something,
just for my own reference?
Copy !req
152. What is it?
Copy !req
153. Why are you doing this?
Copy !req
154. You don't seem the type to be
into this sort of thing.
Copy !req
155. "Why," you ask?
Copy !req
156. At one point in my life,
I had reached the top of the swordfighting world.
Copy !req
157. That was before you were born.
Copy !req
158. Right, I heard you won the Bushin Festival.
Copy !req
159. The Bushin Festival...
Copy !req
160. The real peak is much higher than that.
Copy !req
161. Although, I doubt you would
understand any of that.
Copy !req
162. But as soon as I made it to the top, I got sick.
Copy !req
163. The glory I'd fought so hard to attain
was gone, just like that.
Copy !req
164. After that, I went in search of a way to cure my disease.
Copy !req
165. And I found potential in a certain artifact.
Copy !req
166. Is this going to get long?
Copy !req
167. A little.
Copy !req
168. There was a researcher, Sherry's mother...
Copy !req
169. an unfortunate woman who was despised by
the academic world for being too intelligent.
Copy !req
170. I funded her research,
and she immersed herself in it.
Copy !req
171. We got along beautifully.
Copy !req
172. Then, I finally came face to face with
the artifact I had so longed to find, but...
Copy !req
173. That idiotic woman said the
Eye of Avarice was dangerous.
Copy !req
174. Of all things, she suggested handing it over
to the government for safekeeping.
Copy !req
175. I sliced her open, starting with her extremities,
working my way inward until finally...
Copy !req
176. I stabbed her through the heart
and gave it a good twist.
Copy !req
177. Sherry never knew.
Copy !req
178. She never doubted.
Copy !req
179. She just took over her mother's research,
Copy !req
180. never realizing that I was her mother's killer.
Copy !req
181. My dear, sweet, foolish girl.
Copy !req
182. Well? Does that answer your question?
Copy !req
183. Yeah, pretty much.
Copy !req
184. There's just one thing that bothers me.
Copy !req
185. And what is that?
Copy !req
186. Is it true that you used Sherry
for your own selfish ends?
Copy !req
187. Yes, of course it's true.
Copy !req
188. Does that anger you?
Copy !req
189. I'm not sure.
Copy !req
190. I make a very clear distinction between
what's important to me and what's not.
Copy !req
191. As people go through life,
they collect more things that have value to them.
Copy !req
192. They make friends, find significant others, get jobs.
Copy !req
193. But me?
I trimmed the fat.
Copy !req
194. And when I was done...
Copy !req
195. all I had left was what I
absolutely couldn't do without.
Copy !req
196. And that's why I don't particularly care
what happens to anything else.
Copy !req
197. You mean you don't care what becomes of
the foolish mother and daughter?
Copy !req
198. I think it's time we got started.
Copy !req
199. If we dilly-dally too long,
someone will come interrupt.
Copy !req
200. Indeed.
Copy !req
201. It's a pity, but it's time to say goodbye.
Copy !req
202. Farewell, Cid Kagenou.
Copy !req
203. Where are you going?
Copy !req
204. You!
Copy !req
205. Shadow!
Copy !req
206. Like you, I am a man who has lived by the sword.
Copy !req
207. I can tell a lot when I come
face to face with an opponent,
Copy !req
208. including the fact that I am
currently at a disadvantage.
Copy !req
209. My apologies,
Copy !req
210. but I'm not going to waste any time
before I pull out all the stops.
Copy !req
211. It is when you combine the Eye of Avarice with
its control unit that it demonstrates its true value.
Copy !req
212. Let me show you!
Copy !req
213. Now is the moment of my rebirth!
Copy !req
214. Magnificent!
Copy !req
215. Truly magnificent!
Copy !req
216. My strength is returning!
Copy !req
217. My malady is being cured!
Copy !req
218. Can you feel it?
Copy !req
219. Can you feel the magical energy running wild?
Copy !req
220. The power is far beyond any human abilities!
Copy !req
221. I think I'll try it on you first!
Copy !req
222. Nice block!
Now how about this?
Copy !req
223. I admit it: You're strong.
Copy !req
224. And out of respect for your strength,
Copy !req
225. I won't hold back, either!
Copy !req
226. You've compelled me to fight you as an equal.
Copy !req
227. That will be something to brag about in the afterlife!
Copy !req
228. So that's really the best you can do.
Copy !req
229. Not yet! Not yet!
Copy !req
230. It's impossible that you can be this good.
Copy !req
231. But it doesn't matter how strong you are,
it's over for you!
Copy !req
232. I've made arrangements to ensure
you take the blame for all that's happened!
Copy !req
233. I've prepared evidence, witness testimonies, everything!
Copy !req
234. Now you'll be branded as traitors,
and the entire world will be hunting you down!
Copy !req
235. No amount of strength will save you now!
Copy !req
236. That's hilarious.
Copy !req
237. What?
Copy !req
238. You think a little thing like that means it's over for us?
Copy !req
239. You're hilarious.
Copy !req
240. My organization was never walking
the path of righteousness,
Copy !req
241. but we don't walk the path of evil either.
Copy !req
242. We only walk down our own path.
Copy !req
243. If you can do that, then go ahead.
Bring me the guilt for all the crimes in all the world.
Copy !req
244. I will gladly accept all of it.
Copy !req
245. But it won't change anything.
Copy !req
246. Even with that, I...
Copy !req
247. We will do what we must do.
Copy !req
248. Then you're not afraid to turn the
entire world against you?
Copy !req
249. That is what we call hubris, Shadow!
Copy !req
250. You sliced her open from her extremities to her core,
Copy !req
251. and ended with her heart, is that right?
Copy !req
252. You...
Copy !req
253. Father...
Copy !req
254. Father!
Copy !req
255. No! No!
Copy !req
256. Why? Why?
Copy !req
257. Father! Father!
Copy !req
258. You're better off not knowing.
Copy !req
259. Father!
Copy !req
260. No!
Copy !req
261. Don't you think it turned out nicely?
Copy !req
262. Shadow, sworn enemy to the kingdom.
Copy !req
263. Wanted for mass murder, kidnapping,
arson, and robbery.
Copy !req
264. What a nefarious, evil individual.
Copy !req
265. Lord Shadow said,
Copy !req
266. "I will gladly accept the guilt for all the crimes
in the world, but it won't change anything."
Copy !req
267. Even with that guilt...
Copy !req
268. We will do what we must do.
Copy !req
269. Wise words.
Copy !req
270. Indeed.
Copy !req
271. I had thought we stood for righteousness,
Copy !req
272. but that's not how he saw it.
Copy !req
273. We must do our part to live up to his resolve.
Copy !req
274. Assemble those available of the Seven Shadows.
Copy !req
275. So they're just gonna close the school
and give us an early summer break.
Copy !req
276. Um...
Copy !req
277. Thank you for your help the other day.
Copy !req
278. I didn't really do much.
Copy !req
279. You did!
Copy !req
280. If you hadn't helped me, Cid, I could never have...
Copy !req
281. It was nothing; forget about it.
Copy !req
282. I have something to tell you.
Copy !req
283. I decided to go study abroad, in Laugus.
Copy !req
284. The academic city, on the leading edge of science?
Copy !req
285. That's awesome.
Copy !req
286. There's something I need to do,
and I can't do it with only the knowledge I have now.
Copy !req
287. Besides...
Copy !req
288. I have no reason to stay here anymore.
Copy !req
289. Okay, well, good luck.
Copy !req
290. Thank you!
Copy !req
291. I do wish that I could have gotten
to know you better, Cid.
Copy !req
292. Yeah, maybe next time.
Copy !req
293. Yes, maybe next time.
Copy !req
294. Oh, hey...
Copy !req
295. Yes?
Copy !req
296. Mind if I ask you what it is you need to do?
Copy !req
297. It's a secret.
Copy !req
298. It is?
Copy !req
299. Yes.
Copy !req
300. Well, until next time.
Copy !req
301. I...
Copy !req
302. I swear I'll...
Copy !req
303. People say there is no night with no dawn
Copy !req
304. But I would think it's better without a dawn
Copy !req
305. The scars we want to hide
Copy !req
306. All the memories we want to forget
Copy !req
307. The sun shines light on all of them
Copy !req
308. Looking for falling stars
Copy !req
309. I would wander
Copy !req
310. Until the moment I met you
Copy !req
311. Those stars that twinkle in the sky
Copy !req
312. Lead to a path of hope, I'll go to the end of it
Copy !req
313. I can go forward with no more uncertainty
Copy !req
314. I'll chase after the prayers that traverse the dark night
Copy !req
315. Because even if I can't reach you yet
Copy !req
316. I still want to tell you
Copy !req
317. Thank you
Copy !req
