    It appeared as though humanity
    would be destroyed by the demons.
[00:14] Nar
    But a single mage saved them all.
[00:26] Nar
    He was called the Wizard King,
    and he became a legend.
[00:34] Nar
    The Wizard King gives stars
    to the Magic Knights Squads
[00:37] Nar
    for every achievement they accomplish.
[00:39] Nar
    The squads compete to obtain the most stars.
[00:41] Nar
    The Star Festival is where the
    number of stars each squad
[00:45] Nar
    has accumulated in that year
    is announced to the public.
[00:51] Nar
    While the usually peaceful
    Star Festival was going on,
[00:53] Nar
    Yami and the captain of the
    Green Praying Mantises, Jack the Ripper,
[00:57] Nar
    decide to battle it out
    over something insignificant.
[01:01] Julius
    Abra and cadabra.
[01:07] nar
    Their issues were resolved by
    an unexpected turn of events,
[01:10] nar
    and everyone returned to the Star Festival.

[02:50] Guy
    Wow, she's so beautiful.
[02:51] Guy
    She's so elegant.
[02:52] Guy
    Is she from some wealthy family?
[02:54] Guy
    Hey, go talk to her, man.
[02:56] Guy
    No way! How could I?
[02:57] Asta
    She is super pretty. I bet
    Finral would love her.
[03:05] Balmain
    Truly exquisite. I've decided.
[03:07] Balmain
    You will be my companion tonight.
[03:10] Guy
    That's Baron Balmain from
    the House of Bamilton.
[03:14] Balmain
    First, let us enjoy this festival together.
[03:17] Balmain
    Come with me.
[03:23] Balmain
    Ignoring me, are you? You've got some nerve!
[03:27] Balmain
    Just who do you think I am? I'm—
[03:30] Asta
    Hey!
[03:35] Asta
    Huh?
[03:36] Charlotte
    That would be my line.
[03:38] Sol
    We don't get to enjoy festivals
    like this every day,
SIGN    Blue Rose Knights Squad, 3rd Class Intermediate Magic Knight
    Sol Marron
[03:40] Sol
    so let's doll ourselves up a bit, er...
[03:44] Charlotte
    Who do you think I am?
[03:48] Asta
    This magic...
[03:50] Asta
    She's the captain of the Blue Rose Knights!
SIGN    Blue Rose Knights Captain
    Charlotte Roselei
[03:55] Sol
    Whatcha doin', Sis?
[03:57] Charlotte
    Call me "Captain."
[03:59] Sol
    You got it, Sis!
[04:03] Charlotte
    Come with you?
[04:05] Charlotte
    Were you planning to use
    me as some accessory?
[04:09] Charlotte
    And without my consent, no less.
    What were you thinking?
[04:13] Charlotte
    The House of Bamilton? I belong
    to the House of Roselei.
[04:19] Charlotte
    Did you think you could approach me
    so casually because I'm a woman?
[04:22] Charlotte
    Is there a single way in
    which you are superior to me?
[04:32] Noelle
    Honestly... where did Asta run off to now?
[04:35] Kahono
    Well, he did take quite a flight.
[04:38] Kiato
    I don't think I've ever seen so many people.
[04:41] Kiato
    Feel free to take my hand at
    any time so you don't get lost.
[04:44] Noelle
    What's going on?
[04:48] Charlotte
    What's the matter? Use your magic
    to do something about my briars.
[04:53] Sol
    Woohoo! You go, Sis! You're as cool as ever!
[04:57] Charlotte
    Call me "Captain."
[04:59] Sol
    You got it, Sis!
[05:00] Asta
    Wait, wait, wait!
    You're supposed to stop her!
[05:02] Asta
    That guy's seriously gonna die!
[05:06] Noelle
    Is something wrong? Did you find Asta?
[05:09] Kahono
    Looks like some drunk is
    dancing naked over there.
[05:11] Kahono
    It's nothing for royalty to see.
[05:13] Noelle
    H-H-Hey!
[05:17] Asta
    Hi there.
[05:18] Sol
    You're...
[05:20] Sol
    The little runt from the
    distinguished service ceremony!
[05:22] Asta
    Who are you callin' a runt?!
[05:24] Sol
    I mean, you're definitely a little runt.
[05:26] Asta
    Shut up, you giant woman!
[05:28] Sol
    Huh? What was that, you little mouse?
[05:30] Sol
    You want me to stomp you?
[05:31] Asta
    Please don't!
[05:34] Sol
    More importantly, Sis!
[05:38] Charlotte
    Call me "Captain."
[05:39] Sol
    You got it, Sis!
[05:41] Sol
    I found this super awesome dress!
[05:44] Charlotte
    What I have on right now is fine.
[05:46] Sol
    I know you'll look great in it, Sis!
[05:48] Sol
    Come on. Let's go!
[05:48] Charlotte
    H-Hey!
[05:51] Charlotte
    Stop it, Sol.
[05:52] Sol
    Come on, don't be like that!
[05:55] Sol
    Woohoo! Your skin is as
    lovely and pale as ever!
[05:58] Sol
    It's smoother than marble!
[06:00] Charlotte
    Hey, stop that!
[06:09] Vanessa
    Drinking at a festival is
    on a whole 'nother level!
[06:12] Charmy
    Yeah! Eating at a festival makes the
    food taste even more delicious, la!
[06:17] Grey
    S-So many people!
[06:19] Grey
    I'm so embarrassed! Nom...
[06:20] Grey
    Oh, wow. It really is delicious.
[06:23] Gauche
    I wanted to come with Marie.
[06:26] Marie
    It tastes special somehow.
[06:29] Marie
    Maybe it's because we're at a festival.
[06:31] Marie
    Oh, it must be because I'm
    with you, Big Brother!
[06:37] Magna
    Festivals get me so pumped up!
    The inner man in me is raring to get out!

    I know, right? Wanna fight?
[06:44] Magna
    Hell no!

SIGN    An unforgettable page in our book of memories...
[06:56] Finral
    I'm zero for five today.
    I'm doing worse than usual.
[07:00] Finral
    Sniffity, sniffity, sniff-sniff...
[07:02] Finral
    I smell an extremely beautiful lady.
[07:04] Finral
    Pardon me!
[07:07] Vanessa
    What's his problem? There are plenty
    of pretty girls right here.
[07:10] Vanessa
    Talk about rude!
[07:11] Vanessa
    More importantly,
    what's taking the captain so long?
[07:23] Sol
    You look awesome, Sis!
[07:25] Sol
    That helmet you always wear looks
    great on you, but so does this!
[07:28] Finral
    A goddess... I'm truly in the
    presence of a goddess right now.
[07:35] Asta
    Wow, she's super pretty!
[07:38] Charlotte
    Quiet down, men. This isn't a show!
[07:42] All
    Huh?
[07:43] Sol
    The only ones allowed to get all excited
    about Sis's beauty are the Blue Rose Knights!
[07:48] All
    What?!
[07:51] Charlotte
    Still, I can't let the other
    captains see me like this.
[07:56] Charlotte
    Especially not him*...
[07:58] Yami
    Seems pretty rowdy over here.
[08:01] Yami
    Y'all enjoying the festival?
SIGN    Raging Bull
SIGN    Festival
[08:04] Yami
    Hey, kid. You still in one piece?
[08:07] Asta
    Hey, come on! I almost got hurt!
[08:11] Yami
    Huh? Like that's enough to hurt you.
[08:17] Charlotte
    Y-Y-Yami!
[08:19] Charlotte
    Why in the world did he have to show up?
[08:21] Sol
    You're such a goddess, Sis!
[08:24] Charlotte
    No... I cannot lose my*
    composure in front of Sol.
[08:27] Charlotte
    Calm down... Calm down, me.
[08:30] Charlotte
    Just wait. He might not even
    recognize me in this dress.
[08:33] Yami
    Hey, it's Her Cold and Prickly Majesty.
[08:35] Charlotte
    Badump!
[08:39] Yami
    What the hell's with the sparkly outfit?!
[08:41] Charlotte
    Breathe. Stay calm... Stay calm.
[08:46] Charlotte
    And what about you? What are those
    strange clothes you're wearing?
SIGN    Festival
SIGN    Raging Bull
[08:50] Charlotte
    Especially your lower half!
    What in the world is that?!
[08:53] Sol
    Hey! You're the dirtiest,
    macho-est guy out there!
[08:58] Sol
    The Captain of the Black Bulls!
[09:00] Yami
    Huh? What's your problem?
[09:02] Yami
    Looks like you aren't training your
    squad members properly, rose girl.
[09:05] Sol
    Shut up! Don't you dare come any closer
    to Sis dressed in that weird outfit!
[09:10] Charlotte
    Sol, stop...
[09:13] Vanessa
    There you are, Captain! What are you doing?
[09:17] Vanessa
    Come drink with me!
[09:20] Yami
    Oh. Hey, Vanessa.
[09:28] Vanessa
    Who's this woman?
[09:30] Vanessa
    I'm not sure why... but I feel like
    I can't afford to lose to her.
[09:35] Asta
    She's the Captain of the Blue Rose Knights.
[09:37] Vanessa
    Huh?
[09:38] Charlotte
    This woman... She's so incredibly
    friendly with Yami.
[09:42] Charlotte
    Is she a member of the Black Bulls?
[09:44] Charlotte
    I'm so jealous!
[09:45] Sol
    Who do you think you are, glaring at Sis
    like that? You're just a Black Bull!
[09:50] Vanessa
    I'm not glaring!
[09:53] Sol
    A Black Bull couldn't beat Sis
    in a billion, trillion years!
[10:00] Yami
    A billion, trillion years, eh? Ouch.
[10:03] Vanessa
    I can't let the Blue Rose Knights
    keep talking to us like that!
[10:06] Vanessa
    I can't embarrass Captain Yami any further.
[10:11] Vanessa
    Hey, you!
[10:13] Vanessa
    I challenge you!
[10:17] Charlotte
    Ridiculous. There's little time left before
     our achievements are announced.
[10:21] Charlotte
    Why would anyone bother to—
[10:23] Sol
    Huh?! There's no way Sis would lose!
[10:26] Sol
    Let's do this, Sis!
[10:27] Asta
    You're actually doing it?!
[10:40] Vanessa
    What kind of battle shall it be?
[10:42] Vanessa
    Just so you know, I'm more powerful
    now than I've ever been before!
[10:48] Charlotte
    You fool.
[10:50] Charlotte
    Do you have any idea who you're talking to?
[10:53] Charlotte
    I'm the Captain of the Blue Rose Knights.
[10:56] Asta
    Th-This is turning into a huge mess!
[10:59] Asta
    What are we gonna do, Captain?
[11:01] Yami
    Hell if I know.
[11:01] Finral
    Now, now, now, now, my lovely ladies...
[11:04] Finral
    We're at a festival, so why
    don't we all just get along?
[11:07] Charlotte
    You're a man. Stay out of this!
[11:09] ---
    Huh?
[11:09] Vanessa
    You only know how to flirt
    with girls. Shut up.
[11:12] Finral
    So mean.
[11:13] Finral
    Then how about this?
[11:16] Finral
    It's perfect for a festival night!
    A battle befitting two gorgeous ladies!
[11:19] Finral
    A cosplay contest!
[11:24] Charlotte
    You can't be serious.
[11:25] Vanessa
    What? Scared of losing?
[11:28] Sol
    Of course not! There's nothing in this
    world that Sis can't look good in!
[11:40] Mimosa
    Things seem rather lively over there.
[11:43] Klaus
    Well, we are at a festival.
[11:45] Klaus
    There doesn't seem to be any trouble,
     so I'm sure it's fine.
[11:48] Klaus
    Let us head to where they will announce
    the achievements. We mustn't be late.
[11:51] Yuno
    Right.
[11:53] Mimosa
    The announcement of our achievements...
     I'm so nervous.
[11:56] Klaus
    There's nothing to be nervous about.
[11:58] Klaus
    We will undoubtedly come out on top.
[12:00] Mimosa
    Right. But I think the Black Bulls
    worked rather hard, too.
[12:06] Klaus
    Indeed, they might have.
    Actually, I know they have.
[12:11] Klaus
    We must especially keep an eye
    on all of Asta's achievements.
[12:15] Klaus
    B-But he's still just a Black Bull!
[12:19] Klaus
    They're full of problems,
    regardless of their achievements!
[12:21] Klaus
    They are no match for us, the Golden Dawn!
[12:24] Klaus
    Right, Yuno?
[12:26] Yuno
    The Black Bulls are the lowest
    of the low. Them, beat us?
[12:30] Yuno
    You can't be serious.
[12:33] Finral
    First up, we have the Captain of the
    Blue Rose Knights, Charlotte Roselei!
[12:38] Finral
    The cosplay she chose is...
[12:41] Finral
    A sexy little witchie!
[12:43] Finral
    Talk about super rare! Yee-haw!
[12:46] Sol
    We chose the same outfit as that one witch
    just to show how much better Sis is!
[12:51] Sol
    The difference is super clear!
    Sexy little witchie Sis is awesome!
[12:56] Charlotte
    Of course. There's no way
    I'd lose to that woman.
[13:00] Charlotte
    Also, call me "Captain."
SIGN    Raging Bull
[13:04] Charlotte
    I-I'm so embarrassed!
[13:07] Charlotte
    Why must I wear something like this?!
[13:09] Charlotte
    Don't look! Don't look at me, Yami!
[13:12] Charlotte
    Actually, maybe there's a part
    of me that wants you to look.
[13:15] Charlotte
    Maybe he'd be a little
    friendlier to me if I dressed
[13:17] Charlotte
    like that girl who's way
    too friendly with him.
[13:21] Charlotte
    But it's too embarrassing! Don't look!
[13:23] Charlotte
    Actually, look at me!
[13:24] Asta
    The Blue Rose Knights' captain
    looks pretty good in that, too.
[13:28] Yami
    This is pretty hilarious.
[13:30] Finral
    Next up, we have a member of the
    Black Bulls, Vanessa Enoteca!
[13:36] Finral
    The cosplay she chose is...
[13:38] Finral
    No one saw this coming!
    She's dressed as a sister of the cloth!
[13:41] Finral
    Look at her slay!
[13:44] Vanessa
    Apparently, you don't know
    anything about guys.
[13:47] Vanessa
    Guys like this sort of contrast.
[13:49] Finral
    She's usually exposing so much
    that this is actually sexy, too!
[13:54] Vanessa
    May God watch over you all.
[14:00] Asta
    Miz Vanessa is glowing more than usual!
[14:03] Yami
    This is pretty hilarious.
[14:06] Finral
    All right, everyone! Send your magic
    powers to the girl you like best!
[14:11] Guy
    I'm definitely voting for the
    sexy little witchie, Charlotte!
[14:14] Guy
    The sister's good, too, though!
[14:16] Guy
    Man, I don't know which to choose!
[14:18] Finral
    And let's stop right there!
[14:21] Finral
    As for the results...
[14:24] Finral
    Unbelievable! They received
    the same amount of points!
[14:26] Finral
    It's a draw!
[14:29] Vanessa
    What?!
[14:31] Charlotte
    Hmph. This doesn't matter anyway.
[14:34] Charlotte
    A draw? After I bothered to dress like this?
    I've shamed the House of Roselei.
[14:38] Charlotte
    But...
[14:40] Charlotte
    I wonder what Y-Yami thinks.
[14:43] Charlotte
    Does he see me in a different light now?
[14:46] Charlotte
    Then my embarrassment might be worth it.
[14:49] Sol
    There's no way Sis got a draw!
[14:52] Sol
    Let's settle this once and for all!
[14:55] Vanessa
    Bring it on!
[14:56] Finral
    All right! Round two will
    be a swimsuit competition!
[15:00] Finral
    All right, you two, stri—
[15:03] Finral
    I think I kinda like this...
    I mean... I-I'm kidding.
[15:07] Charlotte
    Anyone who agrees with him
    will endure the same fate.
[15:14] Guy
    Our Clover Premium Beer uses ingredients
    from right here in the Clover Kingdom!
[15:17] Guy
    It's rich and smooth, but you can
    still taste some fruity undertones!
[15:22] Guy
    Try a sip!
[15:25] Vanessa
    C-Captain, you like a girl who
    can hold her liquor, right?
[15:30] Yami
    Huh? Where'd that come from?
[15:32] Charlotte
    Badump, badump...
[15:34] Yami
    Well, I guess so.
[15:36] Yami
    Then we can drink together. Why?
[15:39] Charlotte
    R-Really?
[15:41] Vanessa
    Looks like I'm gonna win.
[15:44] Vanessa
    We're going to have a drinking contest next!
[15:46] Charlotte
    This is nonsense.
[15:48] Charlotte
    I've entertained you this long,
     but that's enough.
[15:51] Charlotte
    They're going to announce
    our achievements soon.
[15:53] Sol
    We're ready to go, Sis!
[15:56] Sol
    Let's bring her down and show
    that insolent girl who's boss!
[16:05] Vanessa
    The rules are simple!
[16:06] Vanessa
    The winner will be decided by who
    can drink the most booze in an hour!
[16:10] Vanessa
    The beer we'll be drinking is
    this special Clover Premium.
[16:13] Vanessa
    One of the Clover Kingdom's best!
[16:14] Vanessa
    No chugging allowed, though!
[16:17] Vanessa
    We can't have any little ones copying us,
[16:18] Vanessa
    and we need to savor the flavor
    out of respect to the brewers!
[16:22] Charlotte
    Why is this happening?
[16:24] Vanessa
    All right, let the games begin!
[16:28] Sol
    You got this, Sis!
[16:30] Asta
    I have no idea what's going on,
    but you can do it, Miz Vanessa!
[16:33] Charlotte
    It appears that this woman
    is a pretty heavy drinker.
[16:37] Charlotte
    This may be a difficult match.
[16:41] Vanessa
    Come at me anytime!
[16:42] Charlotte
    What?!
[16:43] Charlotte
    It looks like she already
    drank herself under the table!
[16:45] Vanessa
    I'm not drunk at all!
[16:47] Charlotte
    I can't believe she proposed
    this battle in that condition.
[16:50] Vanessa
    I'm still good to go.
[16:53] Charlotte
    I can win this!
[17:01] Sol
    S-Sis?!
[17:02] Asta
    Yo! She can't hold her liquor at all!
[17:04] Sol
    But that's another thing
    that's so cute about her!
[17:09] Yami
    The hell are those two doing?
[17:13] Charlotte
    I lost my cool because this was over Yami.
[17:16] Charlotte
    What was I thinking?
[17:19] Woman
    A curse... I place a curse
    upon the House of Roselei!
[17:25] (Flashback) Woman
    When your daughter turns eighteen,
    the curse will activate.
[17:31] (Flashback) Woman
    It will engulf you all and trap
    you within a cage of time!
[17:38] (Flashback) Dad
    Oh, how can this be, Charlotte?
[17:42] (Flashback) Mom
    If only we could figure out
    how to break the spell.
[17:46] (Flashback) Charlotte
    Please don't cry, Mother and Father.
[17:49] (Flashback) Charlotte
    I'll become stronger. Stronger than anyone else!
[17:52] (Flashback) Charlotte
    And I will overcome this curse!
[17:56] (Flashback) Guy
    Apparently, she raised her rank again.
[17:58] (Flashback) Guy
    That newbie from the
    Blue Rose Knights is so powerful!
[18:02] (Flashback) Guy
    Not to mention beautiful!
[18:07] (Flashback) Suitor
    Lady Charlotte, please marry me.
[18:10] (Flashback) Suitor 2
    No, marry me!
[18:16] (Flashback) Charlotte
    If you cannot defeat me,
    you could never accept my curse.
[18:23] Charlotte
    I'm surrounded by weak men who are all talk.
[18:28] Charlotte
    I will overcome this myself!
[18:34] (Flashback) Guy
    The curse!
[18:36] (Flashback) Guy
    The curse upon the House
    of Roselei has activated!
[18:42] (Flashback) Guy
    It's no use. We can't stop it! Ru—
[18:50] Charlotte
    It won't... stop...
[18:52] Charlotte
    At this rate, the town...
[18:56] Charlotte
    Curses! How pathetic... I'm so pathetic!
[19:04] Charlotte
    I'm so sorry... Mother and Father...
[19:25] (Flashback) Yami
    What the hell's the big idea, you jerk?
[19:28] (Flashback) Yami
    You flung the pasta soup
    I was eating everywhere.
[19:33] Charlotte
    Yami Sukehiro? To think I'd let him see
    me in such a disgraceful situation!
[19:39] Charlotte
    What a failure I am.

    Our Magic Knights Squads are full
    of strong people you can rely on.

    yourself too much before?
