**[00:05] Nar**
*And in the clover's fifth leaf resides...*
**[00:07] Nar**
*a devil.*
**[00:10] Nar**
*What Asta, who was born without magic,*
**[00:12] Nar**
*gained from the five-leaf grimoire was*
**[00:14] Nar**
* the power of anti-magic,*
* which nullifies any magic.*
**[00:19] Nar**
* Meanwhile, the Dark Triad*
* of the Spade Kingdom*
**[00:23] Nar**
* also possessed the powers of*
* the devils from the underworld,*
**[00:26] Nar**
*and began invading the other kingdoms.*
**[00:30] Nar**
* Asta continued to fight*
* while believing in himself,*
**[00:34] Nar**
* along with his friends...*
* to protect this world!*
**[00:43] Nar**
* At last, the battle against the devil*
* and the Spade Kingdom began.*
**[00:48] Nar**
* Asta and the others spent six months*
* training in the Heart Kingdom.*
**[00:52] Nar**
* They then rescued some citizens*
* of the Spade Kingdom*
**[00:54] Nar**
* and succeeded in taking*
* over one of their bases.*
**[00:58] Nar**
* Meanwhile, back in Hage Village,*
* where Asta and Yuno grew up,*
**[01:02] Nar**
*the wheels of fate were beginning to turn.*
**[01:06] Lily**
O-Oh, no!
**[01:09] Ralph**
Lord Yuno...
***SIGN*** Quiet Lakes and Forest Shadows
**[02:54] Father**
Where are Nash and the others?
**[02:56] Lily**
I sent them off to school.
**[02:58] Lily**
I'm sure this would make
some of the kids nervous.
**[03:01] Father**
Yes.
**[03:03] Father**
How is he doing?
**[03:04] Lily**
He's still asleep.
**[03:06] Lily**
I used a recovery spell,
but his wounds are deep.
**[03:11] Father**
Maybe he ran into some bandits in the forest.
**[03:14] Father**
Depending on the situation, we may
have to contact the Magic Knights.
**[03:18] Lily**
Yes.
**[03:19] Lily**
Who could he be?
**[03:24] Loropechika**
Good work, everyone.
**[03:28] Loropechika**
Thanks to you, we were able to make
one of the Spade Kingdom's bases,
**[03:32] Loropechika**
the town of Tolon, our own.
**[03:35] Loropechika**
I hear that all the citizens of the
Spade Kingdom who were captured
**[03:38] Loropechika**
in the mobile fortress are recovering.
**[03:41] Loropechika**
Thank you very much.
**[03:43] Leopold**
Are you sure you wanted us to come back?
**[03:46] Leopold**
You could've just had your
forces proceed from there.
**[03:48] Luck**
Stage two guys weren't enough.
I wanna fight someone stronger.
**[03:53] Noelle**
We're dealing with devils here.
We can't just go barging into the unknown.
**[03:58] Noelle**
We have to rest and recover.
**[04:00] Mimosa**
Will the town be all right
in terms of its defense?
**[04:04] Loropechika**
You can leave that to us.
**[04:07] Undine**
I asked Noelle to take one of
my clones to the town of Tolon.
**[04:13] Undine**
Through that clone, I've set up the same
barrier there that the Heart Kingdom has.
**[04:19] Loropechika**
Because I have the devil's curse within me,
**[04:22] Loropechika**
I can sense the devil's magic immediately.
**[04:27] Loropechika**
Let's continue to gain more territory and
corner the devil in the Spade Kingdom.
**[04:31] All**
Yeah!
**[04:33] Noelle**
* Honestly... You sure are making that*
* sound much easier than it's going to be.*
**[04:39] Loropechika**
That's all for today.
Please keep up the good work.
**[04:40] Noelle**
* But with Loropechika's powers,*
* we might just be able to do it.*
**[04:45] Noelle**
*This queen is insane.*
**[04:49] Luck**
I still haven't had enough yet.
**[04:50] Luck**
Hey, Gaja. Play with me again today.
**[04:53] Leopold**
The Spirit Guardian of Fire who trained me,
Floga, is extremely powerful,
**[04:58] Leopold**
but I'd love to know how
powerful you are, too.
**[05:00] Leopold**
I'd also love to spar with you.
**[05:02] Asta**
Ooh! Me, too!
**[05:05] Gaja**
All of you just returned from battle,
so please get some rest.
**[05:09] Asta**
No, I'm totally fine!
You don't need to worry about me!
**[05:14] Luck**
Then let's have a bloodbath together!
**[05:18] Leopold**
I'm getting fired up!
**[05:19] Loropechika**
Ooh, this sounds like fun.
I'd like to join in, too.
**[05:22] Undine**
You know you can't do that,
Loropechika! What are you saying?!
**[05:28] Loropechika**
I'm fi—
**[05:32] Undine**
Loropechika!
**[05:34] Mimosa**
Everyone seems well.
**[05:36] Noelle**
Honestly, they're all so stupid.
**[05:38] Noelle**
I got all dirty in the strong magic region,
so I'm going to take a bath.
**[05:43] Mimosa**
I shall join you, Noelle.
**[05:46] Undine**
You're going too, Loropechika.
**[05:48] Undine**
You're a queen, so you need to enjoy
an elegant bath, not a bloodbath.
**[05:52] Loropechika**
All right...
**[05:53] Loropechika**
Oh, I just happen to know
the best place for a bath.
**[05:58] Finral**
*The cuties from the Clover Kingdom are*
**[06:00] Finral**
* going to take a bath with the beautiful*
* queen of the Heart Kingdom...*
**[06:03] Finral**
*No, don't, Finral!*
**[06:04] Finral**
* Don't you dare get excited over any*
* woman other than Miss Finnes!*
**[06:07] Finral**
*Resist!*
**[06:09] Noelle**
Finral, make up any weird
fantasies and I'll kill you.
**[06:12] Finral**
Noelle! I'm doing everything
I can to resist right now!
**[06:16] Female guard A**
Th-There's trouble!
**[06:18] Female Guard A**
In the Polnfrume Forest...
**[06:20] Female Guard A**
A wild Charmy has appeared!
**[06:24] Female Guard A**
If we don't do something,
she'll eat up all the fruits in the forest!
**[06:28] Finral**
Again?
**[06:30] Leopold**
Wait, again?
**[06:31] Asta**
Well, you see, it appears Miz Charmy really took
**[06:33] Asta**
a liking to the food in the Heart Kingdom.
**[06:37] Finral**
And she's been causing trouble everywhere.
**[06:41] Finral**
In one of the forests, she took
over a group of monkeys
**[06:42] Charmy**
La...
**[06:43] Finral**
and had them bring her bananas.
**[06:46] Finral**
And in another forest, she fought
a bear over some super rare apples.
**[06:47] Charmy**
La...
**[06:51] Loropechika**
Well, the fruits in the Heart
Kingdom are indeed delicious.
**[06:55] Mimosa**
It must be the pure water here.
**[06:57] Finral**
Good grief. We should go fetch her
before she causes any more trouble.
**[07:01] Asta**
I'll go! I'm sure you're pretty tired
from moving all those people around,
**[07:06] Asta**
so you should get some rest, Finral.
**[07:08] Finral**
I think you moved around
way more than I did, Asta.
**[07:11] Asta**
But I don't use any magic, so I'm fine!
**[07:14] Finral**
I'm talking about your stamina, actually...
**[07:18] Finral**
Well, good luck.
**[07:19] Loropechika**
We're counting on you.
**[07:21] Asta**
Yes, ma'am!
**[07:23] Asta**
Demon-Slayer!
**[07:29] Asta**
*I'm going to control my anti-magic...*
**[07:33] Asta**
*and fly!*
**[07:44] Finral**
The kid without magic who
couldn't fly on a broom...
**[07:48] Finral**
He's turned into an impressive guy.
**[07:59] Mimosa**
How lovely.
**[08:01] Loropechika**
This is a secret spring that's been
passed down through the generations
**[08:04] Loropechika**
of the royal family of the Heart Kingdom.
**[08:06] Mimosa**
Oh, my. I'm so honored that
you've brought us here.
**[08:13] Noelle**
I sense some very pure mana.
**[08:16] Undine**
Elmora Lake has some of the finest
water in all of the Heart Kingdom.
**[08:21] Undine**
If you bathe in these waters,
your skin will be nice and smooth.
**[08:26] Noelle**
Let's go in.
**[08:27] Mimosa**
Indeed.
**[08:32] Noelle**
Finally, I feel so much better.
**[08:34] Mimosa**
It's so nice and cold.
**[08:39] Loropechika**
Oops! I forgot to take these off.
**[08:43] Undine**
Oh, Loropechika...
**[08:45] Undine**
By the way, I've been meaning
to ask you girls this for a while...
**[08:50] Undine**
Which one of you is dating Asta?
**[08:53] Both**
What?!
**[08:54] Loropechika**
Ooh, are we talking about relationships?
I'd love to know myself!
**[08:59] Noelle**
W-We're not dating him!
**[09:02] Mimosa**
A-Asta is a very lovely gentleman
who's very kind and reliable,
**[09:07] Mimosa**
but now is not the time for that.
**[09:10] Loropechika**
Then how about when the battle
with the Spade Kingdom ends?
**[09:14] Mimosa**
What?
**[09:15] Undine**
Well, you obviously don't seem to mind.
**[09:18] Undine**
Oh, but the one who always
seems to be with him is Nero.
**[09:22] Loropechika**
Is that because you two are dating?!
**[09:29] Nero**
His head is nice to perch on.
**[09:32] Undine**
Is that all it is?
**[09:33] Nero**
Yes.
**[09:34] Loropechika**
So you're only interested
in the top of his head.
**[09:39] Mimosa**
I-I see.
**[09:41] Noelle**
*Nero's saying that now,*
**[09:43] Noelle**
* but what if they become closer as*
* they spend more time together?*
**[09:47] Undine**
So what about you, Noelle?
**[09:50] Noelle**
I'd never date S-S-S-Stupidsta!
**[09:53] Loropechika**
Oh, I see.
**[09:56] Undine**
I see.
**[09:57] Noelle**
Wh-What about you, Loropechika?
**[10:00] Mimosa**
Y-Yes. Are you seeing Gaja?
**[10:05] Loropechika**
Huh? Me and Gaja? Yeah, no.
**[10:10] Noelle**
Really? But you're always together.
**[10:12] Mimosa**
You'd make a lovely couple.
**[10:14] Loropechika**
That'll never happen.
I'm sure Gaja feels the same.
**[10:18] Undine**
*Poor Gaja. I'd never tell him that, though.*
**[10:31] Luck**
This is fun!
**[10:32] Leopold**
No wonder you're the leader
of the Spirit Guardians.
**[10:34] Leopold**
Your strength knows no bounds.
**[10:37] Gaja**
Because you both managed to
grow so surprisingly quickly,
**[10:40] Gaja**
this is excellent training for me, too.
**[10:44] Gaja**
*I must also become stronger, just like them.*
**[10:48] Gaja**
* I will protect the Heart Kingdom,*
* even if it costs my life.*
**[10:52] Loropechika**
I'm so happy that everyone from
the Clover Kingdom is so nice.
**[10:57] Loropechika**
I didn't know what I would do if you
all turned out to be scary people.
**[11:01] Noelle**
That's our line.
**[11:03] Noelle**
I know it was to check our magic stages,
but you just suddenly attacked us.
**[11:08] Loropechika**
Sorry about that.
**[11:09] Mimosa**
We're very grateful that the
Queen of the Heart Kingdom
**[11:12] Mimosa**
is someone as lovely as you, Loropechika.
**[11:16] Loropechika**
Mimosa...
**[11:18] Mimosa**
And everyone in the Heart Kingdom
has been so kind to us.
**[11:23] Nero**
Yes.
**[11:24] Noelle**
Well, we're all going to
face the devil together.
**[11:26] Noelle**
I'm glad you're someone we can trust.
**[11:29] Noelle**
Th-Though it's a shame you're so clumsy.
**[11:33] Nero**
Hey.
**[11:35] Loropechika**
Thank you very much.
**[11:37] Lorpechika**
Despite appearances, I am trying
my best to be a proper queen
**[11:41] Lorpechika**
in front of the citizens
of the Heart Kingdom.
**[11:44] Loropechika**
Though I'm not good at it.
**[11:46] Loropechika**
So I'm happy to have some friends
I can be so honest with.
**[11:52] Loropechika**
I'm so happy we became friends.
**[11:56] Undine**
You're so cute, Loropechika.
**[11:58] Noelle**
Oh, come on. Now you're making me blush.
**[12:03] Mimosa**
We feel the same as you, Loropechika.
**[12:17] Asta**
It's so great flying through the sky!
**[12:20] Asta**
The passing breeze!
**[12:22] Asta**
The sweet, fruity scent!
**[12:24] Asta**
Hm? Sweet scent?
**[12:27] Asta**
She must be there!
**[12:30] Asta**
Miz Charmy!
**[12:32] Charmy**
Hey, Asta.
**[12:34] Charmy**
Want some noms?
**[12:37] Asta**
Holy crap, she gained weight!
**[12:39] Asta**
Just how much did you eat?!
**[12:41] Charmy**
It's all because the fruit in the
Heart Kingdom is so nummy.
**[12:46] Asta**
You shouldn't eat any more, Miz Charmy!
**[12:50] Charmy**
La? You tryin' to stop me, Asta?
**[12:53] Asta**
Well, yeah! You've obviously
eaten too much—
**[12:56] Charmy**
Listen up, Asta.
**[12:58] Charmy**
We don't eat to live.
**[13:01] Charmy**
We live to eat!
**[13:03] Asta**
What?!
**[13:05] Charmy**
So...
**[13:06] Charmy**
People who get in the way of good eatin'
will get run over by sheep and die.
**[13:12] Asta**
Uh, what?
**[13:13] Asta**
Miz Charmy?!
**[13:20] Villager A**
What's going on?
**[13:21] Villager B**
Hey, that's...
**[13:31] Villager B**
That's Charmy's sheep!
**[13:32] Villager B**
Charmy's out of control!
**[13:39] Potorof**
Charmy...
***SIGN*** Golden Dawn Headquarters
**[13:44] Knight A**
Vice Captain, do you have a moment?
**[13:47] Yuno**
I'm about to go on a mission.
**[13:49] Yuno**
Is this urgent?
**[13:50] Knight A**
Well... we've received a message
from a church in Hage Village,
**[13:53] Knight A**
out in the boonies.
**[13:57] Yuno**
Tell me at once.
**[14:12] Villager B**
That's Charmy's sheep!
**[14:14] Villager B**
Charmy's gone wild!
**[14:17] Villager C**
Cotton! It's using cotton to gather food!
**[14:20] Villager D**
It's headed this way!
**[14:24] Villager A**
She's attacking with all
the hungry forest animals!
**[14:29] Villager B**
At this rate, all of the food in the
forest is going to be gobbled up!
**[14:34] Potrof**
I...
**[14:36] Potrof**
I may have created a monster.
**[14:41] (Flashback) Charmy**
The Mana Method basically makes recipes...
and the dishes they create are magic!
**[14:46] (Flashback) Charmy**
That means I must eat in order
to learn the Mana Method, la!
**[14:50] Potrof**
I didn't really understand her logic,
but I decided to support her.
**[14:55] Potrof**
Charmy is a genius Magic Knight.
**[14:58] Potrof**
The best thing I could do for her would
be to make her talent shine even more.
**[15:04] Potrof**
But she fell in love with all
the food in the Heart Kingdom,
**[15:08] Potrof**
and she ended up at the top
of the forest's food chain.
**[15:12] Potrof**
It's my duty to stop her!
**[15:18] Potrof**
Plant Magic: Evergreen Vida Valtoria.
**[15:25] Potrof**
I can't stop it! They're just
going through. In that case...
**[15:32] Villager C**
Wow!
**[15:33] Villager D**
Way to go, Sir Potrof!
**[15:42] Villager A**
W-We're finished!
**[15:44] Potrof**
Oh, dear.
**[15:49] Asta**
I thought I was going to suffocate!
**[15:53] Potrof**
Are you all right, Asta?
**[15:56] Asta**
Potrof! Thank you!
**[15:58] Potrof**
At this rate, everyone's dinners
are going to be stolen, too!
**[16:02] Potrof**
Will you help me out, Asta?
**[16:05] Asta**
Right back at you!
**[16:08] Charmy**
Fruits are truly the best.
**[16:11] Charmy**
They're delicious, healthy, and mostly water,
so you never gain weight.
**[16:20] Charmy**
So you still haven't given up, Master.
**[16:23] Charmy**
But once the flames of my hunger have
been lit, not even you can stop them!
**[16:30] Asta**
Then I'll just have to
stop you once and for all!
**[16:32] Charmy**
La?
**[16:37] Asta**
All right!
**[16:40] Asta**
What?!
**[16:46] Asta**
That's not fair!
**[16:49] Asta**
Then I'll just have to cut it
somewhere that can't be avoided!
**[16:53] Asta**
'Scuse me for a bit!
**[16:57] Asta**
What the heck?! I keep cutting,
but there's no end!
**[17:01] Asta**
Oh, crap!
**[17:04] Potrof**
Even Asta doesn't stand a chance...
**[17:07] Potrof**
Does this mean all we can do is
watch as she devours everything?
**[17:11] Rill**
Leave this to me, Potrof!
**[17:14] Potrof**
Rill!
**[17:17] Rill**
*Charmy... we trained together.*
**[17:21] Rill**
* As your friend, I cannot allow*
* your rampage to continue!*
**[17:26] Rill**
*Picture Magic: Invasion of Heat-Infused Ice!*
**[17:40] Asta**
You saved me, Rill!
**[17:42] Asta**
I see! We can attack it if it's frozen!
**[17:45] Rill**
Let's go, Asta!
**[17:46] Asta**
Yeah!
**[17:54] Charmy**
La!
**[17:57] Villager B**
They defeated the Charmy!
**[17:59] Villager C**
Thank you!
**[18:00] Potrof**
Goodness, my students caused a mess...
Though I am happy with how much they've grown.
**[18:05] Charmy**
La...
**[18:08] Rill**
Charmy, overeating is bad for you.
**[18:11] Charmy**
Sorry. It's just that the Heart Kingdom's
fruits are so yummy
**[18:16] Charmy**
that I couldn't help myself.
**[18:17] Asta**
You totally saved me back there, Rill.
**[18:19] Asta**
You got even more insane than before!
**[18:23] Rill**
Well, training in the Heart Kingdom
has been super fun.
**[18:27] Rill**
And whenever I think of a certain someone,
**[18:29] Rill**
my inspiration and need
to create just won't stop.
**[18:32] Asta**
A certain someone?
**[18:33] Rill**
The goddess who saved me when
I was possessed by the elf.
**[18:38] Rill**
She's my soulmate!
**[18:41] Rill**
I want to become a powerful man worthy
of her... and a powerful captain.
**[18:48] Asta**
That goddess...
**[18:55] Asta**
is totally Miz Charmy, Rill!
**[18:57] Rill**
Huh?
**[19:00] Rill**
What are you talking about, Asta?
They're totally different. She wasn't this fat.
**[19:05] Asta**
Yeah, I know that, but...
**[19:08] Charmy**
And what are you talking about, Rill?
I'm not that fat.
**[19:12] Charmy**
I'm pleasantly plump.
Obviously, the most popular body type.
**[19:14] Asta**
You're still eating! Can't you
do anything besides eat?!
**[19:19] Charmy**
How rude, Asta! Of course I think of
something besides eating sometimes.
**[19:25] Charmy**
*Something besides eating...*
**[19:27] Charmy**
*I wonder how Yuno is doing.*
**[19:34] Yuno**
*We're almost to Hage Village.*
**[19:36] Bell**
This place is always so dull.
**[19:39] Bell**
We're finally alone, but it
doesn't feel like a date at all.
**[19:44] Bell**
I don't know what they need to tell you,
**[19:46] Bell**
but we're finally going on a date afterward.
**[19:49] Bell**
Yuno, are you listening?
**[19:50] Bell**
Hey, Yuno!
**[19:53] Yuno**
Bell, shut up.
**[19:55] Lily**
Yuno!
**[19:58] Yuno**
Sister.
**[19:59] Lily**
Welcome home. Sorry, I know you must be busy.
**[20:02] Bell**
Yeah! Yuno's super busy!
**[20:05] Yuno**
I'm fine. Did something happen?
**[20:08] Lily**
Well... why don't you come in first?
**[20:20] Ralph**
You're the spitting image of Queen Ciel.
**[20:23] Ralph**
And that necklace... There's no doubt about it!
**[20:27] Bell**
Who the heck is this old guy?
**[20:28] Lily**
Apparently, he's from the Spade Kingdom.
**[20:33] Bell**
Guess we need to kick his butt, then!
**[20:35] Ralph**
I am not your enemy!
**[20:39] Ralph**
The Spade Kingdom was originally
a peaceful kingdom.
**[20:44] Ralph**
Despite how bitterly cold it got,
**[20:45] Ralph**
the people lived happily under the
rule of the House of Grinberryall...
**[20:51] Ralph**
until the Dark Triad appeared,
exiled the Grinberryalls,
**[20:55] Ralph**
and ruled over the people with fear.
**[20:59] Ralph**
Lord Yuno...
**[21:01] Ralph**
You are our hope. You belong
to the House of Grinberryall.
**[21:07] Ralph**
Meaning...
**[21:08] Ralph**
You are the Prince of the Spade Kingdom!

The Ultimate Canvas.
**[22:52] Rill**
I just can't draw her enough!
**[22:55] Rill**
Ah, my goddess!
**[22:55] Charmy**
Munchy, munchy, munchy,
munchy, munchy, munchy...
**[22:58] Asta**
Rill, you don't want to draw
this version of Miz Charmy?
**[23:02] Rill**
I'm too busy trying to get every detail
of the goddess's beauty perfect right now.
**[23:07] Rill**
This canvas is so soft and smooth.
It's as though I'm painting on a cloud!
**[23:11] Rill**
This may just become my ultimate masterpiece!
**[23:14] Asta**
R-Rill, that's—
**[23:16] Rill**
And done! My ideal goddess has descended!
**[23:20] Rill**
Wait a minute...
**[23:21] Asta**
Just how wrapped up were you in your work?!
**[23:24] Rill**
Ack, please don't eat any more, Charmy!
You're going to stretch my goddess out!
**[23:29] Charmy**
La? Rill, those who get in
the way of others' meals...
**[23:34] Asta**
Please! No more, Miz Charmy!
**[23:40] Yuno**
You can't be serious.
**[23:41] Yuno**
You can't be serious about me being
the Prince of the Spade Kingdom.
**[23:45] Ralph**
But I am serious.
