[00:03] Fb
    I've missed you so.
[00:05] Fb
    Shall we begin?
[00:08] Akira
    Yes.
[00:09] Akira
    Let's begin the proposed exchange.
SIGN    Episode 9 "Iron Maiden"
[01:43] Rin
    I accept your terms.
[01:45] Rin
    Trade complete.
[01:48] Rin
    Look at you, jumping at shadows!
[01:51] Rin
    If I wanted to do that,
    it would already be done.
[01:53] Akira
    I'm not about to give you an opening.
[01:56] Akira
    I still don't know how your ability works.
[01:58] Rin
    Then we're in the same boat.
[02:01] Rin
    I'm using every resource I have to survive.
[02:05] Rin
    You're the same way, aren't you?
[02:07] Rin
    You're using Team Green to
    achieve your objectives.
[02:11] Rin
    You're using me, too.
[02:14] Rin
    And what about that charming girl, Yuuri?
[02:16] Rin
    Wasn't she supposed to be with you?
[02:19] Akira
    It's none of your business.
[02:20] Rin
    Well, then...
[02:21] Rin
    If there's an empty spot by your side,
[02:24] Rin
    why not give me a trial run?
[02:26] Rin
    I can offer you much more than she can.
[02:31] Akira
    I only came here to make that exchange.
[02:33] Rin
    A pity.
[02:41] Rin
    Hello?
[02:42] Rin
    I found Akira Shiroyanagi,
    the one you're after.
[02:48] Kumagiri
    Hareka's right.
[02:51] Kumagiri
    Someone's coming.
[02:56] Kumagiri
    No one there?
[02:57] Yuuki
    Boy, you scared me!
[03:00] Kumagiri
    I was sure he was in grappling range...
[03:03] Kumagiri
    Is that his ability?
[03:05] Yuuki
    Say, could you tell me where
    I might find the rest of your team?
[03:10] Yuuki
    I asked the last group I encountered,
[03:12] Yuuki
    but even after all I did,
    they just wouldn't tell me!
[03:19] Kumagiri
    You...
[03:20] Kumagiri
    What did you do to them?!
[03:22] Yuuki
    What did I do?
[03:26] Kumagiri
    The cuff is shrinking?
[03:31] Yuuki
    I took them out more or less like that.
[03:34] Kumagiri
    Then your ability...
[03:36] Yuuki
    Yes!
[03:37] Yuuki
    My ability is to shrink things.
SIGN    <<Collector>>
    
     Mr. Yuuki Setoguchi
    Your ability is
     "The ability to shrink things."
[03:41] Yuuki
    Oh, heck.
[03:42] Yuuki
    I keep running my mouth, don't I?
[03:45] Yuuki
    What an awful habit!
[03:47] Yuuki
    But you're already dead, so it's no big.
[03:50] Kumagiri
    What?
[03:53] Kumagiri
    A string?
[03:54] Kumagiri
    No...
[03:55] Yuuki
    Shrink.
[04:00] Yuuki
    And off goes the hand!
[04:03] Kumagiri
    Damn you...
[04:04] Kumagiri
    Is this what you did to them?
[04:06] Yuuki
    If your teammate was in trouble,
[04:08] Yuuki
    you'd all go scamper to their aid.
[04:10] Yuuki
    That's just what we were waiting for!
[04:12] Yuuki
    Poor stupid babies!
[04:14] Kumagiri
    You really do run your mouth...
[04:16] Kumagiri
    You sadist.
[04:17] Yuuki
    There I go again!
[04:19] Kumagiri
    If there's one thing I hate,
[04:21] Kumagiri
    it's people talking like a match is over.
[04:23] Yuuki
    Oh, but it is!
[04:25] Kumagiri
    I don't agree.
[04:27] Kumagiri
    And...
[04:28] Yuuki
    And?
[04:29] Kumagiri
    You don't know them.
[04:32] Yuuki
    Huh?
[04:35] Oogami
    I baited the trap.
[04:36] Oogami
    Why haven't the Greens shown?
[04:38] Oogami
    Did you arrange this, Kuro?
[04:40] Kuroiwa
    Yes.
[04:41] Oogami
    You said I could have my way!
[04:42] Oogami
    You said I could have my way!
[04:44] Kuroiwa
    And you're having it.
[04:46] Kuroiwa
    But I'm also free to use
    you to serve my own ends.
[04:50] Oogami
    Damn him!
[04:52] Oogami
    If you're worthless as bait,
    I don't need you at all.
[04:56] Oogami
    Say goodbye.
[04:57] Asuka
    I'll see you in hell,
[05:00] Asuka
    you bastard.
[05:01] Oogami
    Hell?
[05:02] Oogami
    Yeah, right.
[05:04] Oogami
    We're already there!
[05:05] Oogami
    Bye-bye now.
[05:07] Asuka
    Everyone...
[05:09] Asuka
    I'm sorry.
[05:10] Asuka
    Take care
[05:12] Asuka
    of Taro!
[05:23] Asuka
    See that, Kuro?
[05:24] Asuka
    I got what I wanted!
[05:27] Kumagiri
    You don't know those two.
[05:32] Kumagiri
    The fight's just getting started, scum.
[05:35] Yuuri
    Asuka is a mother.
[05:40] Yuuri
    She's a really good mother.
[05:42] Yuuri
    She does everything for Taro.
[05:46] Oogami
    Then after I murder her,
[05:49] Oogami
    I'll send the kid to join her.
[06:03] Oogami
    The way she's moving...
[06:06] Yuuri
    A plan to counter Oogami?
[06:08] (Flashback) Akira
    Yes.
[06:09] (Flashback) Akira
    If you both have quintupled abilities,
[06:11] (Flashback) Akira
    you won't beat him with force.
[06:13] (Flashback) Akira
    So we'll counter with agility.
[06:15] Akira
    So we'll counter with agility.
[06:20] Oogami
    Making do with hit-and-run tactics?
[06:23] Oogami
    How boring...
[06:27] Oogami
    And stupid!
[06:31] Oogami
    I just have to catch you,
[06:33] Oogami
    and it's over!
[06:36] (Flashback) Oogami
    That's what Oogami will
    be thinking, at least.
[06:39] (Flashback) Oogami
    But I've learned that when
    a person grabs another,
[06:43] (Flashback) Oogami
    the first instinct is to pull in.
[06:45] Oogami
    Therefore...
[06:46] Yuuri
    You're the stupid one here!
[06:49] Akira
    Use that moment to land a counterblow.
[06:55] Yuuri
    And you deserve way more than that!
[07:07] Yuuri
    Learned your lesson yet, stupid?!
[07:12] Oogami
    Hey, Kuro...
[07:16] Oogami
    This is interesting.
[07:17] Oogami
    I don't think Kuro understands this,
[07:20] Oogami
    but I really do want my answer!
[07:23] Yuuri
    Sounds good to me.
[07:27] Kuroiwa
    That's right, Ichi.
[07:29] Kuroiwa
    I want you to find it...
[07:31] Kuroiwa
    Our kingdom.
[07:34] Kuroiwa
    It's almost time
[07:36] Kuroiwa
    for our surprise to pay off.
[07:40] Shirasagi
    Kuroiwa will think things are
    proceeding according to plan.
[07:44] Shirasagi
    But he won't have realized it yet.
[07:48] Shirasagi
    We've already caught his spy!
[07:51] Shirasagi
    I'm told it was your ability
    that located them.
[07:54] Ringo
    Y-Yes...
[07:55] Ringo
    Akira asked me to find out if any of the
    slaves were lying about their abilities.
[08:02] Shirasagi
    So he suspected it from the start?
[08:05] Shirasagi
    I want to use their trap against them.
[08:08] Shima
    It's no use.
[08:08] Shima
    He's not talking.
[08:11] Ringo
    E-Excuse me...
[08:13] Ringo
    I could clean you up and
    patch up your wounds.
[08:16] Spy
    You...
[08:17] Spy
    Why fight this losing battle
    instead of running away?
[08:20] Ringo
    We don't know it's a losing battle.
[08:22] Spy
    You know what they're capable of.
[08:25] Spy
    They'll kill all of you.
[08:27] Spy
    And me, for screwing up.
[08:28] Ringo
    Someone I care about deeply is here.
[08:32] Ringo
    So although I'm afraid,
    I'm going to stay here.
[08:35] Spy
    Are you stupid or something?
[08:37] Spy
    He'll die, too!
[08:39] Ringo
    We'll win!
[08:40] Ringo
    Because he's Key!
[08:42] Spy
    Key?
[08:43] Ringo
    Yes!
[08:44] Ringo
    See, there was this game
    called World Logic Play.
[08:47] Ringo
    It was a forum for online debates.
[08:47] Spy
    What's with this girl? Why...
[08:49] Ringo
    He was really good at it—
[08:50] Spy
    Enough!
[08:53] Ringo
    S-Sorry.
[08:54] Ringo
    I keep talking about myself.
[08:57] Spy
    Wait.
[08:59] Spy
    I'll talk, too.
[09:01] Spy
    Could you bring me a glass of water?
[09:03] Spy
    I can ask for that much, can't I?
[09:05] Ringo
    S-Sure!
[09:08] Shirasagi
    You think you can convince him?
[09:10] Ringo
    Yes.
[09:11] Ringo
    Just give me a little time.
[09:13] Shirasagi
    Okay. I'll leave it to you.
[09:15] Ringo
    Sure!
[09:18] Shirasagi
    Hareka?
[09:25] Ringo
    N-No...
[09:26] Ringo
    What happened?
[09:29] Shirasagi
    What?
[09:30] Shirasagi
    Enemies heading for the camp?
[09:32] Shirasagi
    Why?
[09:33] Shirasagi
    We captured the spy before we set up camp.
[09:35] Shirasagi
    There's no way they could—
[09:38] Both
    There's another spy!
[09:41] Momoko
    I'm sorry to have lied for so long.
[09:45] Momoko
    But I didn't have a choice.
[09:48] Momoko
    It's for the boys.
[09:52] Kuroiwa
    Don't screw it up, old lady.
[09:57] Yuuri
    Oogami's after Asuka!
[10:00] Yuuri
    We've got to help her!
[10:02] Akira
    No. We can't do that.
[10:04] Yuuri
    Why the hell not?
[10:05] Akira
    We need to meet with Rin Kashii first.
[10:08] Akira
    Our current target is Kuroiwa,
     the brains of Red.
[10:12] Yuuri
    But what about Asuka?
[10:13] Akira
    The others will be heading her way.
[10:15] Yuuri
    But—
[10:16] Akira
    They all knew what they were getting into.
[10:20] Yuuri
    If anything happens to Asuka...
    what happens to Taro?
[10:23] Akira
    Wait, Yuuri!
[10:25] Akira
    To defeat him, I need a partner.
[10:27] Akira
    I need you!
[10:28] Yuuri
    Then work with Ringo!
[10:31] Yuuri
    I bet the things you're saying
    would make sense to her!
[10:33] Akira
    I have her playing a different role.
[10:35] Yuuri
    Role?
[10:37] Akira
    Bear it for now and come with me.
[10:39] Akira
    It's so the team can win.
[10:41] Yuuri
    What do you see me as?
[10:44] Yuuri
    You talk about trusting me, needing me...
[10:47] Yuuri
    Is that all about ways you can use me?
[10:51] Yuuri
    It's not that, is it, Akira?
[10:53] Yuuri
    If it's not, then you'll have to
    understand how I feel right now.
[10:57] Akira
    Yuuri...
[10:59] Yuuri
    I'm sorry, Akira.
[11:01] Akira
    Wait, Yuuri!
[11:03] Akira
    Damn it!
[11:08] Akira
    I prepared a Plan B for if
    Yuuri and I got separated.
[11:12] Akira
    The others running into trouble
    was within expectations.
[11:16] Akira
    It's not a major problem for me.
[11:22] Akira
    I'm going to win this game
    and move to the next stage.
[11:26] Akira
    It's not a problem...
[11:27] Akira
    Is it?
[11:32] Akira
    Right?
[11:38] Kirisaki
    I've been waiting for this, Akira.
[11:41] Akira
    Damn.
[11:43] Akira
    This isn't the right time...
[11:45] Kirisaki
    Let's finish this!
[11:51] Kirisaki
    Nice aim, genius!
[11:57] Kirisaki
    Take this!
[12:01] Kirisaki
    Lots of branches I can use for weapons here.
[12:05] Kirisaki
    No way your cannon can beat all of these.
[12:08] Akira
    Are you sure about that?
[12:09] Akira
    I don't want to take any
    more damage than this.
[12:12] Akira
    Can I make it?
[12:13] Kirisaki
    Still want to get the last word, eh?
[12:16] Akira
    After all, I told you before...
[12:19] Akira
    I'm not bothered by the
    idea of fighting you.
[12:21] Kirisaki
    Keep talkin' like that, Akira.
[12:24] Kirisaki
    It'll feel all the better when I beat you!
[12:27] Kirisaki
    A presence?
[12:29] Kirisaki
    Who's that guy?
[12:31] Kirisaki
    Jump, Akira!
[12:36] Rindo
    Remember this in the afterlife...
[12:38] Rindo
    The man who took your head is named Rindou!
[12:45] Rindo
    Why stop me?
[12:46] Kirisaki
    I'm the one who'll kill Akira.
[12:48] Kirisaki
    Not you, baldy!
[12:51] Rindo
    I see.
[12:52] Rindo
    Then after I slay Akira Shiroyanagi,
[12:54] Rindo
    I just need to slay you next.
[12:56] Rindo
    Is that right?
[12:57] Kirisaki
    So I'm an afterthought, huh?
[12:59] Kirisaki
    Interesting.
[13:01] Kirisaki
    Hey, Akira, let's call a truce.
[13:03] Kirisaki
    Nobody gets in the way of our duel.
[13:06] Akira
    Just in time after all.
[13:09] Rin
    I called him just like Akira asked...
[13:12] Rin
    I hope it worked out.
[13:14] (Flashback) Rin
    I found Akira Shiroyanagi,
    the one you're after.
[13:18] Kirisaki
    Akira?
[13:19] (Flashback) Akira
    Kirisaki.
[13:20] (Flashback) Akira
    If you really want to kill me,
[13:22] (Flashback) Akira
    let's have a one-on-one duel.
[13:24] Rin
    His location is...
[13:24] Akira
    My location is...
[13:27] Akira
    This was my Plan B.
[13:29] Akira
    You'll be my partner while
    Yuuri is gone, Kirisaki.
SIGN    <<Swordsmith>>
    
    Mr. Masakado Rindou
    Your ability is
    "The ability to turn a stick into a sword
    that can cut through anything."
[13:35] Akira
    Kirisaki, his ability is—
[13:37] Kirisaki
    Same as mine, right?
[13:39] Kirisaki
    The bastard blocked my
    knives with his sword.
[13:43] Kirisaki
    The only things my blades can't cut are
    blades made with the same ability.
[13:47] Akira
    That saves us some time.
[13:49] Akira
    My plan is—
[13:50] Kirisaki
    Skip it. I know more about
    my ability than you.
[13:53] Kirisaki
    You follow me.
[13:54] Akira
    You?
[13:55] Kirisaki
    Duck!
[13:59] Rindo
    So close!
[14:01] Akira
    What was that?
[14:03] Kirisaki
    No idea!
[14:04] Kirisaki
    Guess it's not the same ability after all?
[14:06] Rindo
    Let's keep it going!
[14:11] Akira
    Kirisaki!
[14:12] Akira
    Let's withdraw for now!
[14:23] Kirisaki
    What the hell is his ability?!
[14:25] Akira
    Hush!
[14:26] Akira
    Keep your voice down!
[14:27] Akira
    He definitely has the same ability as you.
[14:30] Akira
    I have a source on that...
[14:31] Kirisaki
    It's just turnin' a stick into a
    sword that can cut through anythin'!
[14:34] Kirisaki
    Does it do more than that?
[14:36] Akira
    Most likely.
[14:37] Akira
    Something only he knows.
[14:39] Akira
    Your knife pierced my cannon,
[14:41] Akira
    but his attack didn't.
[14:44] Akira
    That makes me think
[14:45] Akira
    it's not us he's cutting through.
[14:48] Akira
    It's something else.
[14:49] Kirisaki
    Something else?
[14:51] Akira
    And whatever it is, that's creating
    those invisible slashes.
[14:54] Kirisaki
    A sword that can cut through anything...
[14:56] Kirisaki
    But his ability's still
    the same as mine, right?
[15:01] Kirisaki
    As long as I know that, I'll be fine.
[15:03] Akira
    You're sure?
[15:05] Kirisaki
    Four steps.
[15:06] Kirisaki
    If you'll help me, I can
    nail him in four steps.
[15:11] Rindo
    Did they run away?
[15:13] Rindo
    No, they'll be back...
[15:19] Rindo
    Naïve fool!
[15:23] Kirisaki
    You can't use that move when I'm this close!
[15:27] Kirisaki
    He's damn good!
[15:34] Rindo
    Where is Akira Shiroyanagi?
[15:40] Kirisaki
    Go, Akira!
[15:48] Rindo
    Four steps after all!
[15:52] Kirisaki
    Akira!
[15:53] Rindo
    The ambush, the close combat...
[15:55] Rindo
    If the distraction was the third move,
[15:57] Rindo
    the real attack would be the fourth.
[15:59] Rindo
    A cannon blast from my blind spot...
[16:01] Rindo
    All just as I predicted it!
[16:05] Akira
    It was five steps, wasn't it, Kirisaki?
[16:11] Both
    The splinters!
[16:30] Kirisaki
    He fired the cannon twice
    to blast the tree away...
[16:35] Kirisaki
    He predicted everything!
[16:37] Akira
    Interesting.
[16:38] Akira
    We might make a good team after all.
[16:43] Renka
    Renka's army has purged the cannon fodder!
[16:51] Mari
    The...
[16:53] Mari
    The last of my... power...
[17:07] Mari
    Good luck... everyone.
[17:25] Renka
    How dare you harm sweet li'l Renka!
[17:29] Renka
    Killing's too good for you.
[17:31] Renka
    I'll rip you to shreds and
    make an example outta you!
[17:37] Renka
    You...
[17:39] Renka
    How long you been there?
[17:41] Rin
    No "How can I help you"?
[17:44] Renka
    I don't give a shit about helping you.
[17:46] Renka
    What did you see?
[17:47] Rin
    Your neck...
[17:48] Rin
    Is your ability invincibility?
[17:50] Rin
    Then the control of the fighters is—
[17:52] Renka
    Shut up.
[17:53] Renka
    From the first moment I met you,
[17:55] Renka
    I really didn't like you.
[17:58] Renka
    Time to die!
[17:59] Rin
    But we're on the same side.
[18:01] Renka
    Like I give a shit!
[18:03] Renka
    I'll just tell everyone the Greens did it.
[18:06] Rin
    Was that your plan?
[18:09] Rin
    I was thinking the same thing myself.
[18:14] Renka
    Turning your hand into a blade?
[18:16] Renka
    Never seen an ability like that before.
[18:19] Renka
    But you still can't beat me!
[18:22] Renka
    What?!
[18:34] Renka
    I thought you were a
    slow-witted little bitch,
[18:36] Renka
    but you're actually pretty speedy!
[18:38] Rin
    I used to do hot yoga!
[18:51] Renka
    What's the matter?
[18:53] Renka
    I was hoping you'd put
    up more of a struggle!
[18:56] Rin
    No, I've had more than enough.
[18:59] Renka
    Then prepare to—
[19:00] Rin
    More than enough to finish you off.
[19:02] Renka
    Huh?
[19:07] Renka
    What in the world?!
[19:16] Renka
    The blood...
[19:18] Renka
    This bitch turns her blood into knives!
[19:20] Rin
    Isn't that something?
[19:22] Rin
    Even after all that, you're not dead!
[19:24] Renka
    You stupid whore!
[19:34] Renka
    No! Not that way!
[19:36] Renka
    Stop her!
[19:48] Rin
    Found you.
[19:49] Renka
    No!
[19:51] Rin
    You're the one controlling it all!
[20:02] Renka
    How... dare you...
[20:06] Rin
    Renka is not an invincible ability user.
[20:09] Rin
    She's a puppet, just like
    the tanks and helicopters.
[20:13] Rin
    Then the real one must be...
[20:16] Souta
    How... did you know?
[20:18] Rin
    Well, it was just too bizarre!
[20:21] Rin
    Invincibility in a death game?
[20:24] Rin
    That didn't seem like the kind
    of thing Mion would allow.
[20:27] Rin
    So I thought there must
    be someone behind her...
[20:31] Rin
    Hiding in a safe space
    sealed off by the tanks.
[20:34] Rin
    And what about you?
[20:35] Chaen
    I-I can make toys become real!
[20:39] Chaen
    They took me as a slave.
[20:40] Rin
    I see...
[20:42] Rin
    And he was using you?
[20:45] Chaen
    You're on our team, aren't you?
[20:48] Chaen
    Why?
[20:49] Rin
    Well, he clearly intended to kill me soon.
[20:53] Rin
    I'd be in danger even if Red won.
[20:56] Rin
    So I thought I'd kill him first!
[20:58] Rin
    I've made a deal with Green, you see.
[21:01] Rin
    If I killed one Red general,
[21:03] Rin
    they'd attest to Mion that
    I was a spy for Green.
[21:09] Rin
    Now, whether Red or Green wins, I'll survive.
[21:14] Rin
    To make it perfect...
[21:17] Rin
    I just have to tie off one little loose end.

[21:24] Rin
    I've decided I'll survive no matter what.
[21:27] Rin
    Red or Green... who will come out on top?
[21:30] Rin
    Not that it matters to me either way.

    Did you enjoy the ninth episode

    Oh, you're asleep again!
[23:17] Mion
    Thank you for everything, Yang.
[23:19] Yang
    Wait, are you dreaming about me?
[23:21] Mion
    Sorry for always interrupting
    the next episode preview.
[23:23] Yang
    Aw, she actually felt bad. It's okay!
[23:25] Mion
    I'm also sorry for selling
    your underwear online.
[23:28] Yang
    If you've seen the errors of your
    ways, it's... wait, you did what?
[23:31] Yang
    Mion, you're actually awake, aren't you?!
[23:33] Mion
    Nope, I'm totally asleep. See you next time.
[23:36] Yang
    You won't get away with this!
[23:37] Yang
    Look me in the eyes and explain, Mion!
