[00:31] ---
    Her mother?
[00:33] ---
    Didn't you say something
    about college earlier?
[00:35] ---
    Yes. I've gone back to school.
    It's all kinds of stimulating.
[00:41] ---
    What do you think, Toma?
[00:44] ---
    What do I think?
    Well, it's nothing we couldn't...
[00:47] ---
    Hmm?
[00:49] ---
    Obviously, there's
    something not right here!
[00:51] ---
    There are so many unnaturally
    young adults all around Toma!
[00:55] ---
    Ordinarily, this sort of
    thing would be unthinkable!
[00:57] ---
    Let's put that aside and eat something.
[00:59] ---
    I brought along some lunch,
    just like a mother would.
[01:03] ---
    Ta-da!
[01:05] ---
    On today's menu is cheese fondue!
[01:07] ---
    Stop sneaking hazardous
    materials into Academy City!
[01:10] ---
    Oh, but...
[01:12] ---
    ...nibbling away on a tiny box lunch
[01:14] ---
    won't deliver the nourishment
    to the places that need developing.
[01:20] ---
    What are you talking about, "develop"?!
[01:21] ---
    Oh, yes, what could I be talking about?
[01:27] ---
    My, my...
[01:28] ---
    Are we at it again, Toya?
[01:31] ---
    Huh? N-No...
[01:34] ---
    Eat lots to grow bigger, huh?
[01:38] ---
    Toma!
[01:43] ---
    Toma!
[01:52] ---
    I may hate being bitten,
    but this is painful, too, in its own way.
[02:15] ---
    "A Certain Magical Index II"
[02:18] ---
    I gazed at the coin I had flipped
[02:23] ---
    If it's heads I go, tails I stay
[02:27] ---
    Let me know your answer first
[02:33] ---
    "Please, won't you tell me?"
[02:38] ---
    But the angel continued
    to smile in discernment

[02:49] ---
    Wander on! There's nobody
    to lead you by the hand

[02:54] ---
    The answer handed down
    from God is one of woe

[02:59] ---
    Yes, that is what your gift from God is
[03:05] ---
    Once you overcome it, you'll start to see, so right now...
    (Look for it by oneself, no buts about it)

[03:12] ---
    No buts!
[03:27] ---
    Stab Sword
[03:33] ---
    Here.
[03:35] ---
    Thank you!
[03:37] ---
    Bye!
[03:40] ---
    I thought I told you...
[03:42] ---
    ...to avoid contact with private
    citizens as much as possible.
[03:49] ---
    And I am avoiding it,
    as much as possible, aren't I?
[03:53] ---
    How are things on your end?
[03:54] ---
    No one has found you yet, right?
[03:56] ---
    Rest at ease.
[03:58] ---
    Right now, I am sitting perfectly still.
[04:00] ---
    How comfortable for you.
[04:02] ---
    I'd sure like to take it easy.
    A hotel workout would be nice, too.
[04:07] ---
    I've asked you to refrain
    from such indecent expressions.
[04:09] ---
    Oh, my, you're reading too much into that.
[04:13] ---
    Whoo, Lidvia's got a dirty mind!
[04:21] ---
    I have to admit, though,
[04:23] ---
    I do understand that
    the waiting can be tough, too.
[04:28] ---
    Toma! Toma! I think I'd like to try
[04:31] ---
    some of the fruit juice
    they're selling over there!
[04:33] ---
    Look, you,
[04:35] ---
    we just barely got
    done eating lunch, right?
[04:37] ---
    If you keep eating and drinking
    like this, you're going to get fat.
[04:40] ---
    I-I will not!
[04:42] ---
    Oh, no? I'll bet you've
    upped your armor class,
[04:45] ---
    and you're just not aware of it.
[04:48] ---
    If you don't believe me, then you
    can always measure my stomach!
[04:53] ---
    It's not like I walk around
    with a measuring tape, right?
[04:55] ---
    You don't need one!
[04:57] ---
    Huh?
[04:59] ---
    Sissy!
[05:03] ---
    Sissy!
[05:10] ---
    I-It is not nice to step
    aside at the last moment.
[05:13] ---
    Sorry, sorry. I'm in a hurry right now.
[05:16] ---
    W-W-What is the matter, Sissy?!
[05:20] ---
    Do not tell me you are
    going to that gentleman--
[05:22] ---
    I mean, troglodyte, to cheer him on!
[05:24] ---
    N-No way! I forgot to tell my
    mom about a change to the program.
[05:29] ---
    Is that right? Even though
    he is, in fact, right there...?
[05:33] ---
    Eh?!
[05:41] ---
    Do you suppose they are expecting?
[05:44] ---
    Can they already tell
    that the baby is kicking?
[05:46] ---
    Why, that...
[05:50] ---
    Drop dead, you sick creep!
[06:00] ---
    Huh...?
[06:09] ---
    J--
[06:11] ---
    Just my luck!
[06:15] ---
    Orsola! I told you, you can't
    eat muffins inside the library!
[06:19] ---
    But these were made by the Amakusa for me.
[06:24] ---
    Stop getting crumbs everywhere!
[06:26] ---
    You two are well acquainted
    with the current situation, aren't you?
[06:30] ---
    Thanks to you, yes.
[06:33] ---
    I am, after all, a cryptology specialist.
[06:37] ---
    Dealing with large amounts
    of data is a piece of cake for me.
[06:40] ---
    Miss Sherry, I am quite
    adept at decoding, myself.
[06:45] ---
    Anyhow, we'll get to the report data later--
[06:47] ---
    You idiot! I told you,
    stop spilling crumbs!
[06:51] ---
    Geez... When did Necessarius
    get to be so mellow?
[06:58] ---
    Hey, you!
[07:00] ---
    The walkways of Academy City
    are no-smoking areas at all times!
[07:04] ---
    Have you never heard of
    the term "secondhand smoke"?
[07:08] ---
    Of course I have.
[07:11] ---
    Then why are you lighting
    up another cigarette?!
[07:15] ---
    Hey! Please, listen to me! Look at me!
[07:19] ---
    Miss Komoe?
[07:26] ---
    Whoo, I guess I managed
    to get away somehow.
[07:28] ---
    I found you.
[07:31] ---
    And just in time.
[07:32] ---
    Himegami?
[07:34] ---
    We've got a bit of a problem.
[07:37] ---
    Come on.
[07:37] ---
    O-Okay...
[07:43] ---
    U-Um...
[07:45] ---
    Is something the matter?
[07:46] ---
    Er, well, Himegami...
[07:48] ---
    I guess it doesn't bother you too much, huh?
[07:59] ---
    Come on! I have to confiscate those!
[08:03] ---
    Please give them to
    me and don't make trouble!
[08:06] ---
    --I said give them to me, please! Come on!
[08:07] ---
    --There's no need to stop that.
[08:09] ---
    --But...
[08:11] ---
    Hello?
[08:12] ---
    Kami, she's on the move.
[08:14] ---
    About three minutes ago,
    I spotted Oriana
[08:16] ---
    at the Seibusan subway station,
    in School District 5.
[08:20] ---
    Where's Stiyl?
[08:21] ---
    Yeah, he's right here.
[08:23] ---
    Then bring him with
    you and come to the station.
[08:26] ---
    All right.
[08:31] ---
    Ah! Hold on!
    I'm not done talking to you!
[08:35] ---
    Himegami, you take it from here!
[08:37] ---
    Yoink.
[08:38] ---
    Hey! What do you think
    you're doing, Himegami?!
[08:49] ---
    Have to avoid any frivolous holdups.
[08:52] ---
    Hurry it up, Stiyl!
[08:58] ---
    Two more stops.
[09:01] ---
    Hmm? What are you looking at?
[09:03] ---
    Material from the British Library
    about the Croce di Pietro.
[09:07] ---
    Have you found out anything?
[09:09] ---
    It'd be too much trouble
    to tell you verbally.
[09:11] ---
    I'll forward the data to your cell.
[09:14] ---
    O-Okay.
[09:18] ---
    How am I supposed to read this?!
[09:24] ---
    Where's Tsuchimikado?
[09:27] ---
    Where are you now?
[09:28] ---
    Yeah, sorry.
[09:30] ---
    The autobus I'm on has been held up.
[09:33] ---
    How far away are you?
[09:34] ---
    I could probably run there in ten minutes.
[09:36] ---
    If he's that far away,
    she could get out of the search perimeter.
[09:40] ---
    I know.
[09:41] ---
    Stiyl, if I send instructions to
    draw a Four Ways
[09:44] ---
    to Truth pattern to your
    cell phone, could you do it?
[09:46] ---
    No way. I don't know
    anything about eastern spells.
[09:50] ---
    Then, can you do a
    search with a western one?
[09:53] ---
    If I could, would I be asking you?
    It's completely out of my expertise.
[09:57] ---
    All right. I'll invoke a
    Four Ways to Truth array here.
[10:01] ---
    I'll send the results to your cell,
    so you take it from there.
[10:04] ---
    Hold on!
[10:05] ---
    Are you going to be okay
    if you use any more magic?
[10:11] ---
    You're sure?
[10:13] ---
    I am a magician. A specialist is
    only as good as the magic he uses.
[10:29] ---
    Oh, you really want to
    know where I am that badly, huh?
[10:34] ---
    Well, then...
[10:36] ---
    ...what should my next move be?
[10:36] ---
    "A Certain Magical Index II"
[10:42] ---
    "A Certain Magical Index II"
[10:52] ---
    Himegami?
[10:54] ---
    Is there something that's troubling you?
[10:57] ---
    No, it's not that.
[10:59] ---
    I was just thinking,
    Kamijo was acting strangely.
[11:03] ---
    Mm-hmm, he may have
    simply been feeling the pressure
[11:06] ---
    of the next competition
    bearing down on him.
[11:09] ---
    But he seemed a little odd.
[11:11] ---
    He seemed to be on edge...
[11:15] ---
    ...like that one time...
[11:18] ---
    But I don't think he would
    get that way over a competition.
[11:23] ---
    So what you're saying, Himegami,
[11:25] ---
    is that you have an interest in Kamijo?
[11:29] ---
    I think I'd prefer if
    you didn't say it like that.
[11:32] ---
    Kamijo and I aren't even that close,
[11:36] ---
    and if there is any misunderstanding,
[11:37] ---
    Kamijo will be the one put out by it.
[11:40] ---
    Himegami, please have a look at this.
[11:45] ---
    The night parade?
[11:47] ---
    The nighttime Academy City will be lit up
[11:49] ---
    with lighting and laser beams,
    and it will be very, very pretty.
[11:54] ---
    What if you were to invite Kamijo to it?
[11:57] ---
    I couldn't.
[11:59] ---
    Even if I were to
    invite him out of the blue,
[12:03] ---
    I'm sure that Kamijo
    would just be taken aback.
[12:06] ---
    It's not his style.
[12:08] ---
    Th-That's not true!
[12:10] ---
    Himegami, if you invite
    Kamijo to something you think is fun,
[12:14] ---
    I'm sure he will be delighted.
[12:16] ---
    That's the kind of boy Kamijo is.
[12:24] ---
    I said I wouldn't invite him,
    and there's no way I will.
[12:26] ---
    Hmph, why are you being so obstinate?
[12:30] ---
    I'm just not going to invite him.
[12:33] ---
    She's caught on to us.
[12:35] ---
    She suddenly changed direction.
    Now she's heading northwest.
[12:39] ---
    You can't use your Red Spell?
[12:42] ---
    No, I can't.
[12:43] ---
    I'd have to interrupt the
    Four Ways to Truth spell to do that.
[12:46] ---
    If I do that, I couldn't
    track Oriana's location anymore.
[12:50] ---
    She's still heading northwest.
[12:52] ---
    It looks like she's trying
    to shake us off linearly.
[12:55] ---
    Hurry. It's only 1700 meters
    until she's out of our effective range.
[12:59] ---
    You don't have to remind me.
[13:01] ---
    Wait, she suddenly changed direction!
[13:03] ---
    What is this? She sped up all of a sudden!
[13:07] ---
    Tsuchimikado!
[13:11] ---
    He's had it.
[13:12] ---
    From what?
[13:13] ---
    Oriana wouldn't know
    how far she would have to go
[13:17] ---
    to escape the effective range
    of the Four Ways to Truth spell.
[13:19] ---
    So what would she do?
[13:21] ---
    You don't mean...
[13:22] ---
    Yes, she would take out Tsuchimikado, the
    one at the exact center of the spell.
[13:27] ---
    We have to hurry, too!
[13:28] ---
    Where to?
[13:29] ---
    To wherever Tsuchimikado is, of course!
[13:31] ---
    And I'm asking you, where is that?!
[13:36] ---
    We do not know where he is.
[13:46] ---
    You have to give me all you've got.
[13:49] ---
    When you sense out wherever my location is,
[13:52] ---
    it means that I can sense you, too.
[13:55] ---
    You're the most resourceful
    and dangerous one,
[13:58] ---
    so I came to put you down.
[14:01] ---
    "Fallere 825." Remember that.
    It's my magic name.
[14:06] ---
    Hmph. My name is "Basis 104."
[14:10] ---
    And now that I've stated it,
    I'll make sure that I win.
[14:38] ---
    I don't find that violent
    youthfulness to be unlikeable.
[14:48] ---
    Is your style to use your
    magic as little as possible?
[14:53] ---
    If so, you're going to die.
[14:57] ---
    I do have means such that
    I raised a barrier around us.
[15:02] ---
    You don't have any help coming.
[15:10] ---
    You rotten fools who
    have grown lazy in peacetime,
[15:12] ---
    unless you wanna die, time to wake up!
[15:14] ---
    You're too late.
[15:28] ---
    It's all over, huh?
[15:34] ---
    It can't be...
[15:35] ---
    The barrier has been disrupted?
[15:37] ---
    It looks like even I was able
    to bring down your barrier, huh?
[15:42] ---
    I guess you can handle a tougher
    workout than your looks let on.
[15:46] ---
    I have to make sure word of
    what's happening here gets out, you see.
[15:50] ---
    Hmph, silly boy. Even if those
    two who were chasing me get here...
[15:54] ---
    I don't mean them.
[15:56] ---
    What did you say?
[15:58] ---
    What are you, dense?
[16:00] ---
    How many members of
    Necessarius do you think there are?
[16:04] ---
    Do you expect me to believe you?
[16:08] ---
    Tsukebumi Tamazusa--
[16:10] ---
    originally an accessory used
    to make its target see illusions,
[16:13] ---
    but depending on how it's used...
[16:15] ---
    A communications spell?
[16:17] ---
    Now that we know you
    don't have the Stab Sword,
[16:20] ---
    there's no reason for us
    to have her sit out anymore.
[16:25] ---
    Yes--Kanzaki Kaori!
[16:28] ---
    Did you not consider the possibility
    that there'd be a saint in Japan?
[16:31] ---
    Moreover, Kanzaki has some personal
    friends here in Academy City.
[16:36] ---
    Even if, by chance, word gets out,
    it won't be any big deal.
[16:45] ---
    Why won't you go quietly?
[16:49] ---
    Well, for the moment,
    I've destroyed your search spell.
[16:54] ---
    It would be foolish
    to stay here any longer,
[16:56] ---
    letting myself get hurt
    by a wounded little boy like you.
[17:05] ---
    Damn it all...
[17:07] ---
    Kanzaki Kaori's grand entrance...
[17:10] ---
    It would have been great
    if it had actually happened. Still,
[17:15] ---
    this Tsukebumi Tamazusa was a fakeout.
[17:17] ---
    I'm surprised she believed it.
[17:20] ---
    Now then...
[17:24] ---
    Looks like using the Four Ways
    to Truth is out of the question.
[17:32] ---
    Tsuchimikado?
[17:33] ---
    Oriana should be trying to
    get herself away from here now.
[17:37] ---
    That's because I made a teeny little bluff.
[17:41] ---
    The closest thing to the underground
    mall where Tsuchimikado is would be the subway.
[17:53] ---
    I don't seem to have any tails.
[17:56] ---
    The Croce di Pietro
    preparations are still a ways off.
[17:59] ---
    Whatever shall I do?
[18:02] ---
    Planning some spells to
    use against a saint might be fun.
[18:07] ---
    Himegami, we have to take
    a shortcut, or we'll miss the next--
[18:13] ---
    Oh, Miss Komoe...
[18:15] ---
    Now you've gone and done it.
[18:18] ---
    I-I am so sorry!
[18:20] ---
    Ah, and are you all right over here?
[18:23] ---
    Y-Yes, I'm fine.
[18:25] ---
    I'd be more concerned about her.
[18:30] ---
    Ah! Himegami, you're all
    soaking wet and showing through!
[18:34] ---
    Miss Komoe, you're getting
    pointy around the chest, yourself.
[18:39] ---
    A Celtic cross... Necessarius?!
[18:49] ---
    Himegami?
[18:50] ---
    What's the matter, Himegami?
[19:00] ---
    The closest transfer point from here is...
[19:02] ---
    ...an autobus stop 300 meters north.
[19:05] ---
    300, huh?
[19:12] ---
    That smell...
[19:17] ---
    Miss Komoe!
[19:18] ---
    K-Kamijo!
[19:20] ---
    Teacher, what exactly is...
[19:26] ---
    Teacher, what happened here?
[19:28] ---
    We bumped into this woman...
[19:31] ---
    Suddenly, she made
    this scary face, and then...
[19:36] ---
    Oriana.
[19:37] ---
    Why would she? What's her
    reason for attacking Himegami?
[19:40] ---
    Right there.
[19:42] ---
    That "Walking Church"
    accessory is a special item.
[19:46] ---
    She took her to be a
    List-of-Prohibited-Books-class magician,
[19:50] ---
    and concluded that she was chasing her.
[19:52] ---
    It was a mistake?
[19:53] ---
    She did all this to Himegami,
    just because of a simple mistake?
[20:02] ---
    T-P-I-M-I-M-S-P-F-T.
[20:10] ---
    An ambulance has been called, yes?
[20:12] ---
    You should wait for
    them at the path entrance.
[20:14] ---
    They won't be able to spot you here.
[20:18] ---
    Hold on!
[20:19] ---
    What?
[20:20] ---
    She got caught up in this because of us!
[20:22] ---
    You're just going to
    leave her here like this?!
[20:24] ---
    What else can you do for her?
[20:28] ---
    Don't get too full
    of yourself, ride-along!
[20:30] ---
    There isn't a thing
    you can do for this injured girl.
[20:34] ---
    Right now, the only thing
    we can do is go after Oriana.
[20:41] ---
    If you really intend to defend
    anyone, then clench your fists.
[20:44] ---
    The only power that right hand
    of yours has is to destroy illusions.
[20:48] ---
    Tell me, where is there
    any power to protect illusions?!
[20:54] ---
    Son of a bitch!
[20:56] ---
    Don't go thinking that
    anger belongs to you alone.
[21:04] ---
    What are you doing?
[21:06] ---
    When I was with the
    Sister, doing this helped somehow.
[21:10] ---
    No way! Are you...
[21:20] ---
    Why isn't Himegami getting better?
[21:24] ---
    We were just talking about
    the night parade a few moments ago.
[21:28] ---
    And now...
[21:29] ---
    No, you've got it wrong.
[21:32] ---
    Just like scooping up seawater in a bucket,
[21:34] ---
    you first have to mark off the
    area of your miniature landscape.
[21:38] ---
    Kamijo Toma, you go after Oriana.
[21:41] ---
    Hold on a second. Don't tell me you're...
[21:43] ---
    Don't expect much. This is
    outside my area of expertise, too.
[21:47] ---
    Making use of the knowledge from
    the List of Prohibited Books she has,
[21:51] ---
    we're just going to do some first aid.
[21:53] ---
    If you want this to
    be resolved in its entirety,
[21:55] ---
    then leave us behind and go, Kamijo Toma.
[21:59] ---
    All right.
[22:00] ---
    Stiyl, take care of Himegami.
[22:04] ---
    I'm sorry, Himegami.
    I'll come back to your hospital room
[22:08] ---
    before the night parade begins.
[22:10] ---
    So make sure to sit tight for me.
[22:25] ---
    I can change even the
    destiny that entwines me

[22:32] ---
    so I have everything in my hand!
[22:50] ---
    If I lack the power to
    not be outdone by anyone

[22:55] ---
    I can always destroy that illusion
[23:01] ---
    The laid out system
    backup install is okay

[23:07] ---
    Fields unknown even
    to God become opened

[23:13] ---
    It's a "living form" that not even data
[23:18] ---
    from 100,000 memories
    in a moment's miracle can infer

[23:25] ---
    In a Magic∞world exciting
    time or space there's no limit

[23:31] ---
    I want the power it
    takes to protect somebody

[23:36] ---
    I can change even
    the destiny that entwines me

[23:44] ---
    so I have everything in my hand!
[23:55] ---
    "Preview"
[23:55] ---
    I've found out the secret
    of the Croce di Pietro.
[23:57] ---
    The place where it will be
    used must be where Oriana is, too.
[24:01] ---
    But where exactly is that?!
[24:03] ---
    Next time, "Belvedere."
[24:05] ---
    When science and magic
    cross paths, the story begins.
