[00:05] Nar
    The Clover Kingdom.
[00:07] Nar
    In this kingdom where magic is everything,
[00:09] Nar
    there is one boy who can't use magic.
[00:13] Nar
    His name is Asta.
[00:16] Nar
    With guts and hard work,
    he made it into the Magic Knights,
[00:18] Nar
    and he never gave up,
    despite how much he got hurt.
[00:21] Nar
    He continues to diligently
    aim for the top!
[00:25] Nar
    Even if you are a peasant,
[00:27] Nar
    or even if you're poor...
[00:29] Nar
    Anyone in this world can still shine!
[00:32] Nar
    He's working hard to prove that,
[00:35] Nar
    and to become the Wizard King!
[00:40] Nar
    After receiving some time off from Yami,
[00:42] Nar
    Asta headed back to his home village of Hage.
[00:45] Nar
    On the way, he unexpectedly reunited
    with Yuno, who was also heading home.
[00:51] Nar
    Once they reached Hage,
[00:53] Nar
    they learned that the village
    already knew that Asta
[00:56] Nar
    was suspected of being a devil's servant.
[00:58] Father
    I saw you in the paper.
[01:01] Asta
    Right. About that...
[01:03] Yuno
    That article is mistaken.
[01:05] Yuno
    Asta isn't a devil's servant.
    He's actually trying to defeat them.
[01:10] Yuno
    Please believe that.
[01:12] Nar
    But no one in Hage Village had
    doubted Asta, not even for a second.
[01:17] Nar
    On the contrary, they were very proud of him
[01:19] Nar
    and Yuno for becoming Magic Knights
    and saving the village.
[01:23] Nar
    Asta and Yuno got to enjoy
    a brief visit back home.
[01:28] Yuno
    But it's not over yet.
[01:29] Yuno
    We've only just begun.
[01:31] Asta
    In order to protect everyone...
[01:34] Yuno
    ...let's continue moving forward.
SIGN    The Lion Awakens
[03:15] Asta
    Just you watch, Yuno!
[03:16] asta
    I'm gonna get even stronger!
[03:18] Magna
    Well, aren't you all riled up
    first thing in the morning, Asta!
[03:21] Noelle
    There are other things to
    think about, aren't there?
[03:24] Charmy
    Try some. You need your nutrients.
[03:26] Asta
    Thanks!
[03:28] Asta
    It's so good! I can feel the
    energy flowing through me!
[03:30] Luck
    We need to get even stronger
[03:32] Luck
    so we can go up against the
    devil with everything we've got!
[03:36] Charmy
    In that case, here. All of you have
    some so you can work even harder.
[03:39] Magna
    Thanks, Charmy.
[03:44] Luck
    Magna's covered in cake!
[03:46] Magna
    You bastard! I have no idea who
    the hell you are, but keep it down!
[03:50] Magna
    Don't you know this is the hideout
    of the Magic Knights Squad
[03:52] Magna
    led by Mister Yami, the Black Bu—
[03:55] Asta
    I'm pretty sure this has happened before...
[03:59] Asta
    I-I knew it! You're...
[04:01] Asta
    Captain Mereoleona?!
SIGN    Mereoleona Vermillion
[04:03] Mere
    I see your door is as weak as ever.
[04:06] Asta
    So... what brings you here today?
[04:10] Mere
    I don't see Yami, but whatever.
[04:12] Mere
    All of you who are here
    right now, come with me.
[04:17] Noelle
    No! I have nothing but
    bad feelings about this!
[04:22] Charmy
    But we haven't finished eating our cakes, la!
[04:26] Luck
    This seems fun!
[04:27] Asta
    I seriously have no idea
    what's going on right now!
[04:30] Asta
    Where are we supposed to go?
[04:33] Mere
    Shut up. You'll see when we get there.
SIGN    Strong
    Magic
    Region
SIGN    Yultim
    Volcano
    Trail
[04:42] All
    We see it, all right...
[04:44] Magna
    Hey! Where the hell are we?!
[04:46] Magna
    Why did I wake up in a crazy place like this?!
[04:50] Luck
    This is so exciting, isn't it?!
[04:53] Charmy
    I'm losing calories just by standing
    here and getting hungry, la!
[04:57] Asta
    Right... This is the first
    visit here for most of you.
[05:01] Asta
    This is a strong magic region,
    the Yultim Volcano!
[05:05] Magna
    Yul...tim?
[05:07] Noelle
    Lady Mereoleona, since you brought
    us here, does that mean...
[05:11] Mere
    You'll be training, of course!
[05:13] Both
    Of course...
[05:16] Asta
    Leo! And Captain Fuegoleon?!
[05:19] Leo
    It's been a while, my rival.
[05:21] Leo
    I've heard of your adventures
    fighting the elves and the devil.
[05:25] Asta
    And I heard you were fighting on the
    front lines with the Crimson Lion Kings!
[05:29] Asta
    Hey, did you get a little taller?!
[05:32] Leo
    Not only did I get taller,
    I've grown as a Magic Knight, too!
[05:37] Asta
    Hey! Well, I've gotten more muscles, too!
[05:41] Randall
    Black Bulls...
[05:43] Randall
    Do you have a moment?
SIGN    Vice Captain of the Crimson Lion Kings
    Randall Luftair
[05:45] Randall
    I am the Vice Captain of the Crimson
    Lion Kings, Randall Luftair.
[05:51] Randall
    In the previous battle, the three of
    us had our bodies taken over by elves.
[05:56] Ben
    We ended up turning against all of you,
    our allies. We're deeply sorry.
[06:01] Asta
    What are you talking about?
[06:02] Asta
    The only one to blame here is
[06:03] Asta
    the devil who was manipulating the
    whole situation from the shadows.
[06:06] Fuegoleon
    I hear that the devil in the
    Spade Kingdom is an even bigger threat.
[06:10] Fuegoleon
    We will protect this kingdom as the
    proud Magic Knights that we are,
[06:14] Fuegoleon
    and in order to prove Asta's innocence,
[06:16] Fuegoleon
    we'll all have to become stronger individually.
[06:20] Mere
    Just like last time,
[06:22] Mere
    we'll be training with the Crimson Lion
    Kings and the others I have invited.
[06:26] All
    Yes, ma'am!
[06:28] Noelle
    I wouldn't call this "invited."
[06:29] Noelle
    We were kidnapped, just like last time.
[06:32] Asta
    All right! Let's haul ass to
    the hot springs at the top!
[06:36] Mere
    Hold it.
[06:37] Asta
    Huh? Wha?!
[06:39] Mere
    You won't be climbing the volcano this time.
[06:41] Mere
    You'll be heading underneath the volcano...
SIGN    Yultim Volcano Underground Cave
[06:45] Mere
    Into the Yultim Underground Cave!
[06:48] Noelle
    Yultim...
[06:49] All
    ...Underground Cave?
[06:51] Mere
    It's what makes this volcano
    a strong magic region...
[06:54] Mere
    An enormous mana heat
    source deep underground.
[06:59] Mere
    The rocks deep underground
    that are soaked in this mana
[07:01] Mere
    become lava due to the heat
    and burst onto the surface.
[07:05] Mere
    Which means the further you go underground,
[07:08] Mere
    the stronger the influence of
    the mana heat source becomes.
[07:11] Mere
    If your Mana Skin falters,
[07:14] Mere
    your bodies will be exposed
    to the immense mana
[07:17] Mere
    and burn up, reducing you to ashes.
[07:21] Mere
    Have no fear. The goal, which is
     the deepest part of the cave,
[07:25] Mere
    has an even better hot spring!
[07:29] Mere
    Well? Doesn't that make you excited?
[07:32] Nero
    Hot... spring?
[07:34] Charmy
    I request that we switch over
    to the sweets region where
[07:38] Charmy
    sweet honey flows instead of lava!
[07:41] Mere
    You're not ready for that!
[07:43] Gordon
    It actually exists?!
[07:44] Magna
    Wait. What the hell is Mana Skin?
[07:47] Luck
    I dunno.
[07:48] Fuegoleon
    You Magic Knights essentially
    enhance your physical abilities
[07:51] Fuegoleon
    with your mana to some
    degree in order to fight.
[07:56] Fuegoleon
    Mana Skin is the perfect
    state of your basic magic.
[07:59] Fuegoleon
    Flawlessly don your magic like so,
[08:02] Fuegoleon
    and your body is constantly
    protected by enormous mana.
[08:06] Magna
    Wait, you can't expect us to
    be able to do that right away!
[08:09] Mere
    Then be reduced to ash.
[08:11] All
    What?!
[08:13] Fuegoleon
    For those who were brought
    here unexpectedly,
[08:15] Fuegoleon
    I will allow you to use this magic item.
[08:22] Nero
    What's this?
[08:24] Fuegoleon
    It's a magic item that'll help
    you use your Mana Skins,
[08:28] Fuegoleon
    but it's only a supplement.
[08:30] Fuegoleon
    If you lose control of your magic,
    the item's effectiveness will be lost.
[08:34] Both
    Huh?
[08:35] Leopold
    All right! Let the training begin!
[08:39] Leopold
    I will overcome this blazing mana with
    my flame magic and reach the goal first!
[08:45] Asta
    And I'm going to just keep
    moving forward to get stronger!
[08:50] Noelle
    You say that, but what are you even
    going to do when you can't use Mana Skin?
[08:55] Noelle
    That one power of yours takes a lot out
    of you and doesn't last for long, right?
[08:59] Noelle
    If it stops working,
     you'll be burnt to a crisp.
[09:01] Asta
    Yeah...
[09:02] Asta
    Back then, I went into my
    black state by using the power
[09:06] Asta
    flowing through my sword and into my body,
[09:09] Asta
    but I couldn't control it at all.
[09:12] Asta
    But now, I have some control over it.
[09:15] Asta
    I'm going to concentrate
    and control my powers
[09:18] Asta
    so that I don't immediately get
    sucked in by the powerful magic.
[09:25] Mere
    Oh?
[09:27] Mere
    He surrounded his body with anti-magic.
[09:30] Asta
    All right, this will work!
[09:33] Leopold
    Well done, my rival!
    I'm feeling even more fired up!
[09:36] Magna
    Not bad, Asta!
[09:37] Magna
    I've got no time to be scared!
[09:39] Magna
    I'll figure out this Mana Skin
    business in no time!
[09:42] Luck
    Ha, so you were scared!
[09:44] Magna
    Sh-Shut up! Don't make me kill you!
[09:46] Luck
    Nyah, nyah, Scaredy-Cat Magna!
[09:49] Magna
    Shut your stupid mouth!
[09:52] Noelle
    Mana Skin... I should be able to handle
    that now by donning my Valkyrie Armor.
[09:59] Fuegoleon
    It appears you're all prepared.
[10:01] Fuegoleon
    You are the proud Magic Knights
    of the Clover Kingdom.
[10:05] Fuegoleon
    Get through this trial with burning
    desire that surpasses even
[10:09] Fuegoleon
    the heat of this strong magic region!
[10:11] All
    Yeah!
[10:15] Asta
    I'm gonna get to the goal first!
[10:17] Leopold
    No, it'll be me!
[10:18] Asta
    No, me!
[10:18] Leopold
    Me!
[10:19] Both
    It'll be me!
[10:21] Both
    It'll be me!
[10:21] Nero
    Hot spring...
[10:22] Noelle
    I won't lose, either!
[10:24] Luck
    I'm gonna leave you behind if
    you dawdle too long, Magna!
[10:28] Magna
    Wait up, damn it!
[10:29] Randall
    Let us go, too!
[10:30] Guys
    Yes!
[10:31] Charmy
    Sneaky-sneak...
[10:33] Gordon
    Charmy, where are you going?
[10:34] Charmy
    Shh! I'm starving, so I have no interest
    in going anywhere that has no food.
[10:39] Charmy
    I'm going to run away, la.
[10:41] Gordon
    Uh, but...
[10:42] Mere
    I won't stop you.
[10:44] Mere
    You will endure not only
    scorching mana in the cave,
[10:48] Mere
    but also unknown creatures that
    have adapted to such conditions.
[10:52] Mere
    If you have no desire to grow, then flee.
[10:56] Gordon
    I want to become stronger so I can
    fight alongside the other Black Bulls.
[11:02] Charmy
    So these creatures... Are they delicious?
[11:05] Mere
    I assure you that they are.
[11:07] Charmy
    Hell yeah!
[11:09] Charmy
    Just you wait, unknown ingredients that
    were seasoned by the underground mana!
[11:14] Gordon
    Wait!
[11:15] Fuegoleon
    Well... I wonder how many
    of them will reach the goal.
[11:20] Mere
    It's no fun for them to just
    try to get to the hot spring.
[11:25] Mere
    There's another reason why
    I chose this underground cave
[11:30] Mere
    as their training ground.
[11:46] Both
    I'm going to get to the goal first!
[11:49] Leo
    There's no room! Let me pass by, Asta!
[11:50] Asta
    Hot, hot, hot!
[11:53] Asta
    I'm not going to lose!
[11:54] Leo
    Hot, hot, hot!
[11:57] Leo
    The deeper we go, the more the
    mana underground increases,
[12:01] Leo
    which is exhausting us
    at an unbelievable rate.
[12:04] Asta
    I'm starting to get dizzy from all the heat!
[12:07] Both
    At times like this...
[12:08] Both
    ...we just have to shout!
[12:10] Asta
    I'm not done yet!
[12:11] Leopold
    I'm not going to lose, my rival!
[12:14] Asta
    Actually, Nero, what the
    heck did you come for?
[12:16] Nero
    So that I can go into the hot spring.
[12:18] Asta
    Jeez, could you be any less motivated?!
[12:23] Noelle
    Ugh, they're so loud!
[12:24] Noelle
    They're distracting me and making
    me lose control of my magic.
[12:28] Noelle
    Calm down, calm down...
[12:30] Noelle
    If I get irritated, I'll lose even more control.
[12:33] Noelle
    Stay calm, stay calm...
[12:36] Randall
    Is that all you've got?
    Leo and Asta are far ahead of us!
[12:40] Randall
    Let's show them what the
    Crimson Lion Kings are truly made of!
[12:43] All
    Right!
[12:44] Randall
    That's the spirit!
[12:52] Magna
    The heat from the mana
    down here is so intense...
[12:54] Magna
    Even with this magic item helping me out,
[12:56] Magna
    if I let my guard down for
    one second, I'm in trouble.
[12:59] Luck
    My bad, Magna.
[13:01] Magna
    You little shit... You did
    that on purpose, didn't you?!
[13:04] Magna
    I'll kill—
[13:06] Magna
    I'll kill—
[13:07] Magna
    I'm gonna kill you, no matter what!
[13:09] Magna
    And anyway, is this really a shortcut?!
[13:12] Magna
    Isn't the goal deeper underground?!
[13:14] Luck
    Don't worry. The strong guy lurking
    in this cave should be right up here.
[13:21] Magna
    Wait... this isn't a shortcut to the goal?!
[13:24] Magna
    We don't have time to fight
    anything like that, you dumbass!
[13:28] Luck
    How am I supposed to not fight
    it when it's emitting

[13:31] Luck
    such a powerful aura?
[13:36] Charmy
    Hi-yah!
[13:37] Charmy
    Nummies...
[13:39] Gordon
    It's so hot... My mana is being used
    up much faster than I expected.
[13:44] Gordon
    Charmy, it's dangerous
    to stay here much longer!
[13:47] Charmy
    La! We need to taste the unknown creatures
    and replenish our mana right away!
[13:53] Gordon
    But you haven't been able
    to catch a single thing.
[13:56] Gordon
    Maybe they're not here.
[13:58] Charmy
    Something's wrong... I sense the
    unknown creatures down there.
[14:03] Charmy
    La! I can feel it! The ingredients
    are hiding in fear of something!
[14:08] Gordon
    Of you, probably.
[14:12] Gordon
    Look out!
[14:17] Gordon
    It's so powerful...
[14:18] Gordon
    Charmy, h-hurry and let go of the net!
[14:21] Charmy
    I'm not letting this big one get away!
[14:23] Gordon
    N-Now's not the time for that...
[14:28] Gordon
    I can't... hold on any longer!
[14:31] ---
    La?
[14:34] Charmy
    La!
[14:39] Luck
    You okay?
[14:40] Magna
    That was a close one!
[14:42] Gordon
    Luck, Magna, thank you.
[14:42] Charmy
    H-H-H-H...
[14:44] Charmy
    How dare you?! I just missed out
    on eating the nummies in there!
[14:52] Luck
    Looks like that spider wanted
    to eat you, too, Charmy.
[14:55] Charmy
    La?
[14:56] Luck
    I think it's pretty strong. We came
    here because we wanted to fight it, too.
[15:01] Magna
    Speak for yourself, dumbass!
[15:03] Lcuk
    Aw, it got away. Too bad.
[15:06] Charmy
    That's my line!
[15:08] Gordon
    So that's what the creatures
    here were scared of.
[15:12] Charmy
    Just you wait!
[15:19] Asta
    Not yet...
[15:21] Leopold
    You sound out of breath, my rival.
[15:24] Asta
    And you're barely staying on your feet.
[15:27] Leopold
    I'm nearing my limit...
    But my rival is also suffering.
[15:31] Leopold
    I'm getting to the goal first!
[15:34] Asta
    No, it'll be me!
[15:35] Noelle
    Reinforcement Magic: Leg Strength Boost!
[15:39] Noelle
    Pardon me!
[15:40] Leopold
    Wha—
[15:41] Asta
    She's so fast!
[15:43] Noelle
    With the mana in here being this powerful,
[15:45] Noelle
    it's the worst possible compatibility
    with my water magic.
[15:48] Noelle
    I'm having a harder time getting
    through than I thought.
[15:50] Leopold
    How are our magic levels so different
    when we're both royalty?
[15:54] Leopold
    But I will not lose!
[15:56] Asta
    Not yet! Hold up, Noelle!
[15:59] Asta
    I can't let this get to me if
    I want to be the Wizard King!
[16:04] Leopold
    Asta!
[16:06] Leopold
    The moment I first met you...
[16:08] (Flashback) Asta
    Listen up, you bastards!
[16:10] (Flashback) Asta
    I'm going to pile up merit,
[16:13] (Flashback) Asta
    become the Wizard King,
[16:16] (Flashback) Asta
    and shut you all up!
[16:18] Leopold
    Despite that you were
    a peasant with no magic,
[16:21] Leopold
    I felt something in my heart
    when you told of us your dreams.
[16:26] Leopold
    Ever since then, we've fought together,
    trained together,
[16:30] Leopold
    and competed against each
    other to reach new heights.
[16:32] Leopold
    But then, when I tried to become
    a member of the Royal Knights
[16:36] Leopold
    to take down the Eye of the Midnight Sun,
    who killed my brother,
[16:39] Leopold
    I was not chosen.
[16:43] (Flashback) Leo
    I will train even harder,
    catch up to all of you,
[16:48] (Flashback) Leo
    and surpass you!
[16:49] (Flashback) Noelle
    Leopold...
[16:50] (Flashback) Asta
    I will get revenge for Captain Fuegoleon,
     no matter what!
[16:54] Leo
    With that frustration still in my heart,
[16:56] Leo
    I've continued training hard to this day.
[17:02] Leo
    I'm going to catch up to you!
[17:09] Noelle
    We're still not at the goal?
[17:11] Noelle
    I can't keep this up much longer.
[17:14] Asta
    Hold up, Noelle!
[17:17] Noelle
    I-I'm royalty! I may make others wait,
    but I don't wait for anyone!
[17:22] Asta
    Wait up!
[17:24] Noelle
    Swim trunks?!
[17:26] Noelle
    N-No, it couldn't be! I must be seeing things.
[17:28] Asta
    Noelle!
[17:31] Noelle
    What?!
[17:33] Noelle
    Stay calm... Calm down and take another look...
[17:39] Asta
    Wait up, Noelle!
[17:41] Asta
    Let's go swim together!
[17:42] Noelle
    I'm seeing nothing but the ocean!
[17:45] Noelle
    G-Get a grip, me!
[17:47] Noelle
    We're in a cave! A cave! We're not at the beach!
[17:50] Asta
    What's wrong?!
[17:51] Noelle
    No!
[17:53] Asta
    What?!
[17:55] ---
    Whoa!
[17:57] Asta
    What the heck was that for?!
[17:59] Asta
    Hey, Noelle! Where'd you go?!
[18:06] Noelle
    Honestly... Th-That was his fault
    for talking to me out of nowhere.
[18:14] Noelle
    The mana seems calmer in here.
[18:17] Noelle
    I wonder why...
[18:21] Noelle
    Asta?
[18:23] Noelle
    Was it my imagination?
[18:40] Noelle
    Asta?!
[18:42] Asta
    You okay? What the heck is that monster?!
[18:58] Asta
    Crap—
[19:03] Noelle
    Asta!
[19:09] Noelle
    Water Creation Magic: Sea Dragon's Roar!
[19:15] Noelle
    I missed?!
[19:16] Leo
    Take this!
[19:18] Leo
    Flame Magic: Spiral Flames!
[19:33] Noelle
    Leopold!
[19:35] Asta
    You okay?!
[19:43] Fuegoleon
    You can stand, can't you, Leo?
[19:45] Leo
    Yes.
[19:47] Mere
    You never look this happy after
    our daily training sessions.
[19:53] Both
    Really?
[19:55] Mere
    That bug is a mutant that
    recently showed up and has been
[19:58] Mere
    eating up all the creatures around here.
[20:01] Mere
    I wanted to teach it a lesson,
[20:03] Mere
    but I'm sure it's able to sense
    those that are stronger than it is.
[20:07] Mere
    It never shows itself before me.
[20:11] Mere
    So I decided to try to throw you lot in here.
[20:14] Mere
    It attacked you, thinking you
    were food, just as I planned.
[20:18] Asta
    How could you do something like that?!
[20:20] Noelle
    If you knew that thing was down here,
     you should've told us—
[20:22] Mere
    Don't be naïve!
[20:25] Mere
    The unexpected always happens in battle!
[20:28] Mere
    Not to mention, we're going to be
    facing a devil from another world!
[20:31] Mere
    How do you expect to survive
    if you can't even handle this?
[20:34] Leo
    True... I didn't picture
    this as an actual battle.
[20:38] Asta
    I can't argue with that.
[20:40] Mere
    Or so I'd like to say...
[20:42] Mere
    But it appears that bug isn't a mere mutant.
[20:46] Mere
    That thing has man-made mana within it.
     Mana it wasn't born with.
[20:51] Mere
    And...
[20:52] Fuegoleon
    That must be how it kept hiding from you.
[20:57] Mere
    Elaborate camouflage that
    even I couldn't see through...
[21:01] Mere
    Must be an ancient curse.
[21:18] Asta
    Don't tell me that's...
[21:20] Mere
    A dungeon, eh? Things are getting exciting.
