**[00:15] ---**
Hello, Michella. How are you?
**[00:18] ---**
Your brother is doing well.
**[00:20] ---**
It's been six months now
since I came to this city.
**[00:25] ---**
These last six months have seemed
incredibly long, and yet short,
**[00:30] ---**
in a way that feels
kind of weird, even to me.
**[00:33] ---**
It feels awkward writing
you a letter after all this time,
**[00:36] ---**
and you might be surprised, too.
**[00:40] ---**
It's not as though anything has happened.
**[00:43] ---**
It's just,
**[00:44] ---**
there's something I really have to tell you,
**[00:47] ---**
so I automatically picked up my pen.
**[00:49] ---**
That's all there is to it.
**[00:55] ---**
This place is as crowded and
messy as it has always been--
**[00:58] ---**
a noisy city where abnormal is normal.
**[01:01] ---**
I've managed to muddle through,
at least until now,
**[01:04] ---**
living out the worst and the best days ever.
**[01:09] ---**
A year ago, when I left you behind,
**[01:13] ---**
I thought that I was someone who
was all but worthless to the world--
**[01:20] ---**
a powerless, idealistic little
man you can find anywhere.
**[01:28] ---**
Even now, that hasn't changed much,
**[01:31] ---**
but once in a while,
**[01:33] ---**
I get the feeling that that's not true, either.
**[01:38] ---**
Today, I wanted to tell you how
it is that I got to thinking that way.
**[01:44] ---**
I want to tell you what I saw, what I felt,
**[01:47] ---**
and who I ran into here in this city.
**[01:57] ---**
This may go on for a while,
**[02:00] ---**
but I hope you'll hear me out until I'm done.
**[02:07] ---**
This is the story of me,
**[02:09] ---**
and the people who showed some hope in me.
**[02:15] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[02:27] ---**
This city is the pits.
**[02:29] ---**
Everything happened in just one night!
***SIGN*** Hey, wait up, monkey!
**[02:32] ---**
The arcane city where this world
and the alterworld intersect
**[02:35] ---**
Hellsalem's Lot!
**[02:36] ---**
It's a fight-picking smorgasbord...
**[02:38] ---**
Damn!
**[02:39] ---**
a wallet-lifting smorgasbord...
**[02:41] ---**
The wages are low,
**[02:43] ---**
and it's hard to make any personal connections.
**[02:46] ---**
Three years ago, this is
where New York used to be!
**[02:52] ---**
Life, which is already hard
enough as it is, is even harder here.
**[02:58] ---**
That day, the gate
opened without any warning,
**[03:01] ---**
the alterworld started eating away at it,
**[03:03] ---**
the city was reconstructed,
and a fog barrier was raised!
**[03:07] ---**
Isn't that right, Mr. Guabara?
**[03:09] ---**
Yes!
**[03:21] ---**
Even more so for a small-timer like me,
**[03:23] ---**
whose only redeeming
feature is that I'm normal.
**[03:26] ---**
When the American government
became aware of the situation,
**[03:29] ---**
everything was already beyond
their reach behind the fog.
**[03:33] ---**
Isn't that right, Mr. Guabara?
**[03:35] ---**
Yes!
**[03:37] ---**
Once you get used to the abnormalities,
they become mundane.
***SIGN*** One vavradugo burger and a diet Blobb soda.
**[03:49] ---**
As a result of the Great Collapse,
**[03:50] ---**
the existence of an alternate world,
a long-held product of fantasy,
**[03:55] ---**
had been conclusively demonstrated!
**[03:58] ---**
In fact, aside from it existing,
**[04:00] ---**
we don't really know anything else.
Isn't that right, Mr. Guabara?
**[04:04] ---**
Yes!
**[04:06] ---**
Life is hard.
**[04:08] ---**
It's already been three weeks
since I started living this way.
**[04:22] ---**
Whether our encounter proves to be
a comedy or a tragedy for both sides
**[04:28] ---**
is a development we can all look
forward to, isn't it, Mr. Guabara?
**[04:32] ---**
Yes!
**[04:37] ---**
It was just as I was
about ready to give up,
**[04:39] ---**
both because of my lack of luck,
and the absurdity of this city.
**[04:44] ---**
Good day to you, you damn newbie.
**[04:47] ---**
I'm Zapp Renfro.
**[04:49] ---**
You didn't come to our meeting point,
**[04:52] ---**
and you sure are sitting pretty out here,
seconds from death, aren't you?
**[05:01] ---**
The next time you need
someone to pick you up,
**[05:03] ---**
you can just call mommy or daddy.
**[05:08] ---**
I think you've mistaken me--
**[05:08] ---**
Huh?!
**[05:10] ---**
Er, no, I mean...
**[05:14] ---**
Hmph, pathetic.
**[05:16] ---**
You sure you're up to working for Libra?
**[05:23] ---**
My name is Leonardo Watch.
**[05:26] ---**
Libra...
**[05:28] ---**
For some reason,
**[05:30] ---**
I'm here in this godforsaken miracle of a city.
**[05:41] ---**
Several hours earlier
**[05:45] ---**
I know I've said this before,
**[05:47] ---**
but you have to be sure to
contact your younger sister.
**[05:51] ---**
Yeah, well...
**[05:53] ---**
What's wrong with you?
**[05:54] ---**
Either fish or cut bait.
**[05:56] ---**
Ah, thanks.
**[05:58] ---**
Worrying about each other,
even when nothing is wrong,
**[06:01] ---**
is what it is to be family. Am I right?
**[06:05] ---**
Absolutely.
**[06:10] ---**
It's been a good while
since you started coming here,
**[06:14] ---**
so what are you even
doing here, all on your own?
**[06:17] ---**
Sightseeing? Here for work?
**[06:21] ---**
Well, I suppose that's it.
**[06:26] ---**
I'm an apprentice reporter, here to train--
**[06:36] ---**
Sheesh, to think that an apprentice reporter
**[06:39] ---**
would come all the way
here just to go hungry.
**[06:42] ---**
Too weird.
**[06:44] ---**
You think so?
**[06:46] ---**
I'm actually quite normal.
**[06:50] ---**
We don't offer free refills on
coffee so you can fill your belly.
**[06:55] ---**
Sorry.
**[07:05] ---**
It ain't free. You can wash dishes afterward.
**[07:09] ---**
But... I couldn't.
**[07:12] ---**
I mean...
**[07:13] ---**
for someone like me...
**[07:14] ---**
Don't go talking like that.
**[07:16] ---**
Being reserved isn't
anything like being humble.
**[07:20] ---**
Besides, we couldn't stand to let
one of our regulars starve to death.
**[07:26] ---**
Th-Thank you very much.
**[07:37] ---**
Hey! Hold it, monkey!
**[07:42] ---**
What's with him?
**[07:44] ---**
You didn't see his camera
get stolen from him, huh?
**[07:47] ---**
A sonic speed monkey.
**[07:48] ---**
They're too fast for human eyes to follow.
**[07:53] ---**
Huh?
**[07:55] ---**
But he shouted "monkey," didn't he?
**[07:58] ---**
That day, everything that happened
was a series of lucky coincidences.
**[08:03] ---**
I happened to be at my usual diner,
**[08:04] ---**
happening to have a long
chat with my usual counter hop,
**[08:09] ---**
then happened to fall victim to
a pilfering sonic speed monkey,
**[08:12] ---**
and then happened to get
caught up in a disturbance
**[08:15] ---**
caused by a crazed citizen pulling a holdup...
**[08:31] ---**
And after happening to get sent
flying and knocked to the ground...
**[08:38] ---**
Good day to you, you damn newbie.
**[08:41] ---**
I'm Zapp Renfro. You didn't
come to our meeting point,
**[08:46] ---**
and you sure are sitting pretty out here,
seconds from death, aren't you?
**[08:48] ---**
I found the reason why I came here,
**[08:51] ---**
and the people that
I have been searching for.
**[08:54] ---**
Secret Society of the Magic-Sealed City
**[08:55] ---**
Libra...
**[09:00] ---**
Libra (noun)
**[09:02] ---**
A secret society of supermen
who work in the shadows
**[09:04] ---**
Though this city was feared at first,
**[09:04] ---**
to preserve the balance of worlds"
Though this city was feared at first,
**[09:07] ---**
within HL (Hellsalem's Lot).
**[09:07] ---**
now it's crawling
with all sorts of vicious criminals,
**[09:09] ---**
Their full scope is unknown,
**[09:09] ---**
terrorists, big businesses,
**[09:11] ---**
religious factions, mafia, refugees,
**[09:11] ---**
and it is said that precise information on them
**[09:14] ---**
is worth billions to the underworld.
**[09:14] ---**
and intelligence agencies from every country.
**[09:17] ---**
One could call this a place
where folks quietly set their sights
**[09:19] ---**
on domination for the next thousand years.
**[09:22] ---**
We're here to put our lives on the
line against these shady characters.
**[09:25] ---**
We don't need anyone
slowing us down, Johnny.
**[09:31] ---**
But that was all the more
reason why I was sure
**[09:34] ---**
that this is where I would find the truth.
**[09:49] ---**
Michella...
**[09:59] ---**
Welcome.
**[10:01] ---**
You're our new colleague, are you?
**[10:03] ---**
We're glad you're here.
**[10:08] ---**
I'm Klaus V. Reinherz.
**[10:10] ---**
This is Chain Sumeragi.
**[10:13] ---**
Nice to meet you, Johnny Landis.
**[10:15] ---**
Johnny Landis? That can't be right.
**[10:18] ---**
After all, he just died.
**[10:27] ---**
Mistaken identity is beyond stupid!
**[10:29] ---**
Cram it! The chief didn't know, either!
**[10:32] ---**
Never mind about Mr. Klaus.
This is *your* problem!
**[10:35] ---**
What'd you say?! You want some of this?!
**[10:38] ---**
Die!
**[10:39] ---**
And don't you lie to me, either!
**[10:41] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[10:43] ---**
But there's
something I have to know!
**[10:46] ---**
There's something I just have to know!
**[10:49] ---**
Since you're all familiar with the
underworld, I thought you'd know!
**[10:53] ---**
And now, the man is being
taken away by policesuits.
**[10:57] ---**
It's that holdup incident from earlier.
**[10:57] ---**
This heinous act, carried out in broad daylight,
**[10:59] ---**
Looks like they caught the guy.
***SIGN*** has clearly thrown the neighboring residents for a loop.
**[11:17] ---**
Gotcha!
**[11:18] ---**
There he is.
**[11:19] ---**
Ladies and gentlemen, it's me--
**[11:21] ---**
the greatest freak to
ever rule Hellsalem's Lot,
**[11:26] ---**
the King of Depravity, Femt!
**[11:30] ---**
How is everyone doing these days?
I am utterly bored, myself.
**[11:36] ---**
And that is all because of you people!
**[11:38] ---**
All of you *swine* sitting around
**[11:38] ---**
Me
**[11:38] ---**
You
**[11:41] ---**
with your mouths open,
waiting for food to drop into them!
**[11:45] ---**
This guy pisses me off.
**[11:47] ---**
That's why, once again, I've decided
to have some fun of my own.
**[11:51] ---**
I'm sorry about this.
**[11:59] ---**
Mm, did you hear that?
The game has already started!
**[12:03] ---**
The rules are simple:
**[12:05] ---**
Locate the gate that
is paired with the robber,
**[12:08] ---**
and destroy it before the demon finds it.
**[12:11] ---**
The gate will open every few minutes,
offering you a chance to find it.
**[12:15] ---**
You can use the clear-cutting party
that breaks out each time as a marker.
**[12:20] ---**
But if the demon finds the gate first...
**[12:24] ---**
Oh! Just thinking about it is terrifying!
**[12:28] ---**
I can't even find the words!
Well, best of luck to you,
**[12:33] ---**
those of you who represent humanity!
**[12:36] ---**
Mr. Klaus!
**[12:37] ---**
Don't tell me the King of
Depravity put you up to this!
**[12:41] ---**
N-No...
**[12:43] ---**
Huh?!
**[12:44] ---**
Take your hands off of him, Zapp.
**[12:46] ---**
Try using your brain for a moment.
**[12:49] ---**
Mr. Klaus sensed the danger,
and shielded him!
**[12:52] ---**
Oh, he did?
**[12:54] ---**
The origin of that gate was probably...
**[13:01] ---**
Hold it, monkey!
**[13:03] ---**
So it really *is* going
according to your plan, isn't it?!
**[13:05] ---**
I'm sorry! Forgive me! I didn't know, really!
**[13:10] ---**
Um, one-time Johnny Landis...
**[13:17] ---**
It's Leo. Leonardo Watch.
**[13:20] ---**
I'm sorry for lying to you, Mr. Klaus.
**[13:24] ---**
Thank you very much for saving me.
**[13:28] ---**
You...
**[13:30] ---**
saw it, didn't you?
**[13:33] ---**
Yes.
**[13:34] ---**
Huh?!
**[13:35] ---**
I was barely able to make out that
attack from the corner of my eye!
**[13:41] ---**
Does it have anything to
do with those "eyes" of yours?
**[13:45] ---**
That "something" you just have to know?
**[13:54] ---**
It happened exactly six months ago.
**[14:08] ---**
Big Brother!
**[14:10] ---**
We're all the way here at the city limits,
so why are you shooting me?
**[14:15] ---**
I'm not all that interested in that place.
**[14:17] ---**
There you go again.
**[14:19] ---**
What happened to your
newspaper reporter's spirit?
**[14:23] ---**
Oh, hush.
**[14:25] ---**
Look, just stop moving
around so much, Michella.
**[14:29] ---**
There is a reason why I was so obstinate.
**[14:33] ---**
My sister had been born with disabled legs.
**[14:36] ---**
Hellsalem's Lot was a city where miracles
beyond human knowledge happened.
**[14:41] ---**
Although they couldn't say as much,
**[14:43] ---**
our parents probably couldn't
help but have hope for her legs.
**[14:49] ---**
I think that it was this desperate
hope that annoyed me so much.
**[15:02] ---**
That's when it happened.
It appeared right in front of us.
**[15:08] ---**
You may choose.
**[15:11] ---**
Who will see this through?
**[15:16] ---**
We also understood what
was not being said out loud.
**[15:20] ---**
"The one who would not see this
through did not need their eyesight."
**[15:24] ---**
So then, if *you* can see, that means,
**[15:27] ---**
you sacrificed your
little sister, you dickbag?!
**[15:44] ---**
I-I couldn't move...
**[15:48] ---**
I just...
**[15:51] ---**
froze there, the whole time...
**[15:55] ---**
I'm...
**[15:57] ---**
I'm...
**[15:58] ---**
such a coward!
**[16:06] ---**
If you must take it, then take it from me.
**[16:13] ---**
If you must take it, then take it from me!
**[16:23] ---**
This is the HLPD SWAT team!
Get down on the floor,
**[16:27] ---**
put your hands behind your head,
and cross your ankles!
**[16:30] ---**
This is a state of emergency!
Follow instructions, or we will shoot!
**[16:34] ---**
This is the HLPD SWAT team!
**[16:36] ---**
Looks like we've got some
bad company dropping by.
**[16:39] ---**
Are they planning to pin
this whole disturbance on us?
**[16:43] ---**
Leonardo...
**[16:46] ---**
I understand everything you're telling me
**[16:49] ---**
about the facts behind your abilities.
**[16:52] ---**
With that in mind, I'd like to offer you a deal.
**[16:56] ---**
What do you say?
**[16:58] ---**
Your ability is likely to be the key
**[17:00] ---**
that turns this entire situation around.
**[17:04] ---**
Therefore, I want you to work with us.
**[17:07] ---**
If you will help us, we will work
**[17:09] ---**
with you to achieve your goal.
**[17:14] ---**
You mean...
**[17:15] ---**
Yes.
**[17:16] ---**
Once again, I welcome you to "Libra."
**[17:21] ---**
Tch.
**[17:22] ---**
Zapp, you stay out of this.
**[17:25] ---**
The ultimate battleground
is not here, but further on.
**[17:29] ---**
Save your strength until then.
**[17:33] ---**
Also, there is one thing that I
want you to reconsider, Leonardo.
**[17:39] ---**
You are not a coward.
**[17:41] ---**
The reason being that you are still
standing there, and haven't given up.
**[17:48] ---**
As long as one tries to take
even one step toward the light,
**[17:53] ---**
the human spirit can never truly...
**[17:56] ---**
be defeated!
**[18:02] ---**
I have to go apply...
my Brain Grid Blood Battle Technique!
**[18:08] ---**

**[18:14] ---**
Form 11!
**[18:20] ---**
*Wirbelsturm*!!
**[18:21] ---**
Wirbelsturm
**[18:28] ---**
Go!
**[18:30] ---**
You can start by saving the world!
**[18:40] ---**
Libra--What an utterly upright bunch.
**[18:45] ---**
You never, ever lose interest,
**[18:47] ---**
and if extended an invitation,
you always accept.
**[18:50] ---**
Maintaining world balance is fine and all,
**[18:54] ---**
but don't you think it would be
more amusing if you lived in a way
**[18:57] ---**
that was more faithful to your own desires?
**[19:02] ---**
Fall already, humanity.
**[19:07] ---**
Mr. Zapp!
**[19:08] ---**
Are you sure
we should shoot the monkey?!
**[19:11] ---**
We're gonna blow the gate away,
and the monkey with it!
**[19:13] ---**
But the monkey didn't split open!
**[19:16] ---**
Huh?!
**[19:17] ---**
Unlike the robber,
the monkey didn't split open!
**[19:21] ---**
What'd you say?!
**[19:23] ---**
Yeah?
**[19:24] ---**
The monkey is headed your way! The next
release is almost here, so watch out!
**[19:48] ---**
Miss Vivian!
**[19:51] ---**
Leo...!
**[19:53] ---**
You're all right? Thank goodness.
**[19:59] ---**
Hurry and get out of here.
**[20:01] ---**
There's no telling when
that monster will attack.
**[20:05] ---**
Leo!
**[20:12] ---**
Please just sit tight. I promise I'll help you.
**[20:15] ---**
I haven't yet washed those
dishes like I agreed to, either.
**[20:29] ---**
Mr. Zapp?!
**[20:30] ---**
I'm surprised you're still here.
I thought you'd run off.
**[20:34] ---**
Hey, can you move?
**[20:36] ---**
Yes.
**[20:37] ---**
Let's finish this before the gate opens again!
**[20:41] ---**
I'll fend him off, so you do
something about that monkey!
**[20:46] ---**
Heh, I don't know what happened,
**[20:49] ---**
but you look like you've made up
your mind to do this, haven't you?
**[20:52] ---**
I like that look on your face.
**[20:55] ---**
Here goes. Watch your timing, now.

Run, you damn brat!
**[21:31] ---**

**[21:44] ---**
It's no use!
**[21:48] ---**
I won't make it in time!
**[21:52] ---**
Don't just stand there, you damn brat!
**[22:02] ---**
Underestimate me, and you'll pay for it.
**[22:10] ---**
Seventh Hell
**[22:16] ---**
Don't open...
**[22:17] ---**
Don't open, don't open,
don't open, don't open!
**[22:21] ---**
I have to size things up... with my own eyes!
**[22:47] ---**
Why?! Why didn't you kill the monkey?!
**[22:51] ---**
Thanks to you,
everything is ruined, you know!
**[22:54] ---**
My whole plan to get a huge laugh
when you joined the demon together
**[22:58] ---**
as a result of killing the monkey, ruined!
**[23:12] ---**
That boy didn't kill the monkey
because he doesn't like killing?
**[23:18] ---**
Here in the abnormal city of Hellsalem's Lot?
**[23:25] ---**
Damn it!
**[23:26] ---**
That's normal!
**[23:29] ---**
The boy is the holder of the
"All-seeing Eyes of the Gods," is he?
**[23:33] ---**
Are you sure you want
to let someone like him in?
**[23:36] ---**
Mm-hmm. If anything happens,
we'll all just have to handle it.
**[23:42] ---**
Okay.
**[23:45] ---**
Hey, Leo.
**[23:46] ---**
What can I get you?
**[23:47] ---**
Let's see... A coffee blend...
**[23:52] ---**
and some dishes to wash.
**[23:54] ---**
I figured you'd gone squishy
and gotten out of here.
**[23:58] ---**
I wouldn't do something like that.
**[24:03] ---**
Hmm,
**[24:04] ---**
I found him!
**[24:06] ---**
Hey there, ladies and gentlemen!
**[24:08] ---**
This is the King of Depravity, Femt,
bringing you your next episode preview!
**[24:12] ---**
What, you thought the first preview would
naturally start off with the main character?
**[24:15] ---**
You idiots! This is why
you guys are hopeless!
**[24:19] ---**
Try to imagine something with
more "pop," and more "oomph."
**[24:24] ---**
Next time on Blood Blockade Battlefront:
**[24:26] ---**
"After the Phantom Ghost Wagon."
**[24:28] ---**
Check for yourself what's on the inside.
**[24:31] ---**
Best of luck next time,
**[24:33] ---**
"After the Phantom Ghost Wagon"
those of you who represent humanity!

Hellsalem's Lot (noun)
**[00:07] ---**
Formerly New York (NY). Three years ago, in the
**[00:08] ---**
unprecedented disaster known as the
**[00:08] ---**
Let's go on to our next song.
**[00:10] ---**
'Collapse of New York,' a large hole opened up
**[00:11] ---**
in the city's center
that connected to another realm
**[00:11] ---**
This hit number, released in 1967,
**[00:13] ---**
known as the 'alterworld.' The world's attention
**[00:13] ---**
is an eternal standard,
**[00:15] ---**
has been focused on HL as a hyper-abnormal city,
**[00:15] ---**
covered in the age of the alterworld
**[00:18] ---**
mixing the alterworld and this world.
**[00:18] ---**
by Zalmud Le Zamwell.
**[00:21] ---**
When you happen to take
a moment from your daily lives,
**[00:23] ---**
and take in the view depicted by
this song through compound eyes,
**[00:27] ---**
you can't help but wish
that the whole world were
**[00:30] ---**
wrapped up in air as
refreshing as it is, can you?
**[00:35] ---**
Here at midday, please pause
for just a moment, and listen to...
**[00:39] ---**
"What a Wonderful Beyond."
**[00:43] ---**
It's been nearly a month
since I came to the city.
**[00:48] ---**
My name is Leonardo Watch.
**[00:52] ---**
I'm a regular guy who,
**[00:54] ---**
by random chance, became a minor
member of a certain organization.
**[01:02] ---**
The organization's name is "Libra."
**[01:04] ---**
It's a secret society that watches over
the balance of worlds here in this city,
**[01:08] ---**
which is teeming with monsters,
beasts, and many other things.
**[01:15] ---**
However, the whole picture with
them is, like the city, shrouded in fog.
**[01:20] ---**
I wonder just how many people there are
**[01:22] ---**
carrying on what kind of
battles out there every day.
**[01:26] ---**
Will the day ever come when I find out?
**[01:35] ---**
Today's the day I've got you, Chief!
**[01:46] ---**
Good morning, Leonardo.
**[01:49] ---**
This man always tries to take me
down whenever there's an opening.
**[01:54] ---**
But he's sincerely trying to
kill me, so it can create problems.
**[01:59] ---**
Goddamn it!
**[02:15] ---**
I don't get this at *all*.
**[02:18] ---**
Hellsalem's Lot--a city where this
world and the alterworld intersect.
**[02:23] ---**
This is the record of
the clandestine activities
**[02:26] ---**
of the secret society of supermen,
Libra, which works in the shadows
**[02:30] ---**
to preserve the balance of worlds.
**[02:33] ---**
*Upon opening the door,
I found a twisted noontime evening*
**[02:37] ---**
*How did I get home yesterday?
My body's the only thing I'm sure of*
**[02:42] ---**
*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[02:46] ---**
*among the unknown sights
that have become so familiar*
**[03:00] ---**
*After I figured all was lost,
I've been getting by somehow,*
**[03:04] ---**
*somewhat embarrassed to
be tough enough to still be alive*
**[03:09] ---**
*I know what I have to do, even if I forget*
**[03:13] ---**
*Otherwise, things become so agonizing*
**[03:18] ---**
*I look up to see someone with big black eyes*
**[03:23] ---**
*It's because I saw you
that this light came to be*
**[03:27] ---**
*Surrounded by a world
painted in colors of my choosing,*
**[03:32] ---**
*where do I find meaning in
the scars I could not choose?*
**[03:36] ---**
*In the heart of a world
where only I am the hero,*
**[03:41] ---**
*I'm onstage, appearing
in every scene until the end*
**[03:45] ---**
*What do I do? I can't
even pretend to be empty*
**[03:50] ---**
*Hello, hi there, here I am*
**[03:55] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[04:04] ---**
"The All-seeing Eyes of the Gods."
**[04:06] ---**
It's said that whoever possesses
these eyes can gaze into the past,
**[04:10] ---**
and even peer into the future.
**[04:13] ---**
They are largely a mystery,
**[04:15] ---**
but they are a prime artifact,
even throughout the alterworld.
**[04:19] ---**
There are many characters who will
try to get them, no matter what it takes.
**[04:24] ---**
Especially once it gets out
that he's a member of Libra.
**[04:31] ---**
I just hope this doesn't end poorly.
**[04:40] ---**
I guess I can't take that road today, huh?
**[04:42] ---**
After the Phantom Ghost Wagon
**[05:04] ---**
Don't cry, Michella.
**[05:21] ---**
Yeah?
**[05:22] ---**
Thank you for your order!
It's Dogimo's Pizza!
**[05:26] ---**
Okay.
**[05:42] ---**
Hi, there!
**[05:47] ---**
Give it back!
**[05:48] ---**
Ah, this is good! The rest aside,
Dogimo's cheese is first-rate.
**[05:53] ---**
Please give it back!
**[05:56] ---**
If you're not going to pay for it, give it back!
**[06:00] ---**
My, what's the matter with that boy?
**[06:03] ---**
Is he a trespasser?
**[06:38] ---**
I've had it! Why are you
always there wherever I go?!
**[06:41] ---**
Because you always come
to wherever I am, pube-head.
**[06:45] ---**
Wait, by any chance, are you
a stalker? Maybe I should kill you.
**[06:49] ---**
Oh...
**[06:51] ---**
Score!
**[06:52] ---**
Are you sure you should be
using your deadly skills for *that*?
**[06:56] ---**
You idiot. You know, a samurai will
use his sword to cut a daikon radish
**[07:00] ---**
if he doesn't have a knife.
**[07:02] ---**
I saw it on Yo! Tube.
**[07:10] ---**
Is your ability to manipulate your
blood the same as Mr. Klaus's?
**[07:15] ---**
More or less.
**[07:18] ---**
But the effects differ,
depending on the style used.
**[07:20] ---**
The chief's is particularly nasty.
**[07:23] ---**
To some folks, it's their worst nightmare.
**[07:26] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[07:34] ---**
Ow, man! Watch it, you idiot!
**[07:38] ---**
Mr. Zapp...
**[07:39] ---**
Huh?
**[07:40] ---**
What is that?
**[07:41] ---**
What is it? It's a dry cleaner's truck.
**[07:45] ---**
You don't say. That's what it looks like?
**[07:54] ---**
You don't mean you're...
**[07:55] ---**
Yes, I am. That is correct.
**[08:05] ---**
I can see something completely different.
**[08:13] ---**
Hey!
**[08:14] ---**
We're getting out of here. Our eyes met.
**[08:17] ---**
For all I can tell, you're totally neurotic.
**[08:21] ---**
So frustrating...
**[08:27] ---**
What is it? Ready to die, silver monkey?
**[08:30] ---**
I'm not dying, she-bitch.
**[08:32] ---**
There's a two-ton dry cleaner's
truck on Gilda Street. Track it.
**[08:36] ---**
Yeah, Leo says he can see something else.
**[08:40] ---**
Probably someone sneaking something
under the cloak of high-level illusionry.
**[08:46] ---**
No, it ain't that.
**[08:48] ---**
At least, I don't think it's a mental disorder.
**[08:51] ---**
Hey, cut that out!
He's sitting right in front of me!
**[09:08] ---**
Mr. Zapp!
**[09:11] ---**
Apparently, you're the
only one who can see me, kid.
**[09:17] ---**
Hey, Shiboroba,
someone saw through your illusion.
**[09:21] ---**
We can't take even the outside chance
**[09:24] ---**
that word of our precious
stock-in-trade gets out, can we?
**[09:34] ---**
Copy that. We study him without killing him.
**[09:49] ---**
Hey, what's the matter? Are you all right?!
**[09:52] ---**
It's up to you now, dog lady.
**[09:54] ---**
I did what I could, but there's
no guarantee it will work.
**[09:58] ---**
We're counting on your nose now.
**[10:09] ---**
Oh, no!
**[10:12] ---**
I lost sight of it!
**[10:18] ---**
Just how much of you is normal kid, anyway?
**[10:22] ---**
What about you?
What the hell are you up to?!
**[10:27] ---**
Are these people alive?
**[10:30] ---**
These are for eating. They're being
preserved in vacuum packs.
**[10:34] ---**
That can't be! Cannibalism is prohibited
under the Chrysler-Galadona Accord.
**[10:40] ---**
That's why we're going
to all this trouble, you idiot.
**[10:46] ---**
What's going on here? No fighting, now.
**[10:51] ---**
There's no way you'll get--
**[10:53] ---**
We'll get away with this? Why not?
**[10:56] ---**
You are the only one in this whole
city who saw through my illusion.
**[11:02] ---**
And look what happened to you!
**[11:06] ---**
Oh, my! The All-seeing Eyes of the Gods!
**[11:10] ---**
Yeah, acknowledged. Got it. Don't worry.
**[11:14] ---**
It looks like this guy is just too tricky.
**[11:16] ---**
I mean, he's someone who could
as much as alter the whole world.
**[11:19] ---**
Yeah, so, you know... how can I say this?
**[11:24] ---**
Stop crying, Chain!
**[11:25] ---**
Did they change the
vehicle's make along the way?
**[11:31] ---**
It was an illusion that even
fooled the invisible werewolf,
**[11:34] ---**
but Leo's eyes were able
to see through even that.
**[11:39] ---**
Man, this is a real mess.
**[11:44] ---**
For both friend and foe.
**[11:46] ---**
Ah! What an exquisite
work of art! I can't wait!
**[11:51] ---**
I want to hurry and finish our work,
so I can immerse myself in your dissection!
**[12:06] ---**
To the alterworld
**[12:18] ---**
Ugh... Sonic...
**[12:22] ---**
Where are we now?
Where are we passing through?
**[12:28] ---**
The fog is thick.
We've gone in this deep, have we?
**[12:37] ---**
I have to let Mr. Klaus
and the others know quickly.
**[12:48] ---**
How embarrassing--
**[12:50] ---**
relying on them without a second thought.
**[12:55] ---**
It's like nothing at all has changed, has it?
**[13:00] ---**
I have to...
**[13:03] ---**
I have to do something on my own.
**[13:06] ---**
I'm a member of Libra now, after all!
**[13:15] ---**
But what the hell am I supposed to do?!
**[13:18] ---**
I'm just a powerless, regular guy
with good eyes and no killer skills!
**[13:25] ---**
My eyes?!
**[13:27] ---**
Zapp is the only one they brought in.
**[13:29] ---**
I think it's safe to say
that Leo has been abducted.
**[13:33] ---**
Also, I'd like you to hear
something from the attending doctor.
**[13:38] ---**
There's something not
right about this patient.
**[13:40] ---**
It's creeping out the nurses.
Could it just be his constitution?
**[13:45] ---**
Do you know anything about this?
**[13:47] ---**
As soon as we give him a
blood transfusion, it goes away--
**[13:51] ---**
the blood, I mean.
**[13:53] ---**
Way to go, Zapp!
**[14:00] ---**
Whoa! What's going on?!
**[14:02] ---**
A monkey, appearing right before our eyes?!
**[14:08] ---**
Chase them using his blood?
**[14:10] ---**
That's right.
**[14:11] ---**
Zapp is currently extending the
blood from his body like a thread,
**[14:14] ---**
and following the invisible
vehicle from the alterworld with it.
**[14:19] ---**
That's the reason why the blood
that gets transfused is vanishing.
**[14:23] ---**
Frankly, it's a superhuman move.
**[14:25] ---**
I know what he's usually like,
**[14:27] ---**
but to be honest, the guy's a virtuoso.
**[14:30] ---**
But it takes so much focus that
as long as the vehicle is moving,
**[14:35] ---**
he can't do anything else.
**[14:38] ---**
You damn brat!
**[14:40] ---**
What the hell have you done to us?!
**[14:42] ---**
What's with the monkey?!
**[14:47] ---**
However, they will stop at some point.
**[15:10] ---**
Once he gets up and
ignites the thread, you're on.
**[15:14] ---**
Go after him, no matter what it takes.
**[15:16] ---**
We'll track your GPS signal
and take the shortest route to you.
**[15:22] ---**
Enough! You're too big a hassle!
**[15:26] ---**
Piss off; just leave me your eyeballs.
**[15:29] ---**
Get fired up. No matter how
far into the alterworld's heart he is,
**[15:34] ---**
we'll be sure to reach there.
**[15:37] ---**
The terror of getting on Libra's bad side
**[15:39] ---**
is something these guys who stuck
out their tongues and screwed us over
**[15:43] ---**
will experience in spades.
**[15:48] ---**
Say your prayers... you filthy bastard...
**[15:53] ---**
Huh?
**[15:57] ---**
Don't blame me...
if you start blowing chunks!
**[16:09] ---**
Plain eyeballs!
**[16:35] ---**
Don't screw this up,
**[16:36] ---**
dog lady.
**[17:42] ---**
Cram it down his throat, Klaus!
**[17:47] ---**

Kreuzvernichterlanze!!
**[18:03] ---**
Brain Grid Blood Battle Technique,
Form 111 Vernichterlanze
**[18:17] ---**
We located 19 missing persons,
**[18:20] ---**
and captured three dimwits and
one vehicle in violation of treaty.
**[18:24] ---**
Though they're all in little pieces.
**[18:26] ---**
But, consequently,
we did a fine job, didn't we?
**[18:30] ---**
Most of all, a level of illusionry we
didn't even know about before today
**[18:34] ---**
has been brought to light.
**[18:36] ---**
This is huge.
**[18:38] ---**
Right now, they're
trembling with fear all over.
**[18:41] ---**
Both out here and in there.
**[18:43] ---**
Everything turned out fine. Congratulations!
**[18:46] ---**
My, my, my, my, my,
I mean, congratulations?
**[18:49] ---**
You call this congratulatory?
**[18:52] ---**
Try to hold yourselves back.
**[18:54] ---**
Well done, lad! I'd like to
give you credit for the guts it took
**[18:59] ---**
to try to escape on your own.
**[19:02] ---**
Although, one thing we
can't forget from all of this
**[19:05] ---**
is Zapp's marvelous feat. Did you set
him up beforehand to be his bodyguard?
**[19:10] ---**
Mr. Zapp, no smoking.
**[19:12] ---**
Yeah, yeah...
**[19:14] ---**
No, actually...
**[19:16] ---**
You've gotta be kidding, Chief.
**[19:18] ---**
If you're that worried about him, you can keep
him with you around the clock, can't you?
**[19:21] ---**
My duties do not include babysitting.
**[19:25] ---**
And, in that general fashion,
**[19:28] ---**
he refused me outright.
I'm afraid this is all on me.
**[19:39] ---**
Klaus, you need to get better at
winning others' hearts and minds.
**[19:46] ---**
Did you think Zapp would
give you a straight answer
**[19:49] ---**
when asked in as direct a manner as that?
**[19:53] ---**
Mr. Zapp, no smoking.
**[19:55] ---**
Yeah, yeah...
**[19:57] ---**
So that's it.
**[19:58] ---**
I get it now.
**[20:02] ---**
He did all that for me.
**[20:06] ---**
Thank you very much, Mr. Zapp.
**[20:10] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[20:20] ---**
Yeah, like that's what I'm
going to think, you ass hat!
**[20:32] ---**
We'll observe you for two or
three more days, and then you're out.
**[20:35] ---**
Congratulations.
**[20:37] ---**
Yeah.
**[21:09] ---**
What is this place?
**[21:25] ---**
A cemetery at a hospital?
**[21:31] ---**
That's morbid.
**[21:38] ---**
You're right. That's why
nobody but me comes here.
**[21:45] ---**
But then, don't you think it's
futile to live in fear of death?
**[21:50] ---**
I mean, everyone is going to die sometime,
**[21:52] ---**
so is there any point in pretending
not to see it for the present?
**[21:57] ---**
Or instead...
**[21:59] ---**
I wonder if they think it doesn't concern
them, since they aren't going to die.
**[22:05] ---**
Which way do you think, Leonardo Watch?
**[22:11] ---**
Who...
**[22:13] ---**
are you?
**[22:16] ---**
I'm White!
**[22:19] ---**
I'm a ghost!
**[22:22] ---**
Let's be friends, Leonardo!
**[22:36] ---**
*Accustomed to the supernatural
disaster-like madness,*
**[22:39] ---**

**[22:46] ---**
*what is it that I mustn't lose sight of?*

walking the streets at night*
**[23:08] ---**
*some seem to be so happy,
some seem to be so lonely*

I am Yahabio, humble courier, at your service.
**[24:11] ---**
Today, I've ended up couriering
the next episode preview.
**[24:14] ---**
I'm sure there are some of you out there
**[24:16] ---**
who are wondering, "Why are we listening
to someone who died during the episode?"
**[24:23] ---**
Don't sweat such petty things. It'll kill you.
**[24:26] ---**
Next time on Blood Blockade Battlefront,
**[24:28] ---**

**[00:21] ---**
Oh, you show up.
**[00:34] ---**
W-Why did you just take my picture?
**[00:36] ---**
Huh?
**[00:38] ---**
W-Well...
**[00:39] ---**
You said you were a ghost, so...
**[00:46] ---**
That's right. That's what I am.
**[00:50] ---**
You're a lot more unique than you look.
**[00:56] ---**
I like you!
**[01:05] ---**
What?! What?!
**[01:06] ---**
What is that?!
**[01:09] ---**
An idol?!
**[01:12] ---**
What a lovely view, what a lovely view!
**[01:14] ---**
Mr. Landlord?
**[01:15] ---**
I won the subdivision lottery!
**[01:18] ---**
This is now a tourist site and high-end hotel.
**[01:22] ---**
Eviction terms are stated in your
contract, so I hope you don't mind.
**[01:25] ---**
Huh?!
**[01:28] ---**
Pack your things and be out in
the next 40 seconds. Otherwise...
**[01:37] ---**
Hellsalem's Lot--a city where this
world and the alterworld intersect.
**[01:41] ---**
This is the record of
the clandestine activities
**[01:44] ---**
of the secret society of supermen,
Libra, which works in the shadows
**[01:47] ---**
to preserve the balance of worlds.
**[01:51] ---**
*Upon opening the door,
I found a twisted noontime evening*
**[01:55] ---**
*How did I get home yesterday?
My body's the only thing I'm sure of*
**[02:00] ---**
*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[02:04] ---**
*among the unknown sights
that have become so familiar*
**[02:18] ---**
*After I figured all was lost,
I've been getting by somehow,*
**[02:22] ---**
*somewhat embarrassed to
be tough enough to still be alive*
**[02:27] ---**
*I know what I have to do, even if I forget*
**[02:31] ---**
*Otherwise, things become so agonizing*
**[02:36] ---**
*I look up to see someone with big black eyes*
**[02:41] ---**
*It's because I saw you
that this light came to be*
**[02:45] ---**
*Surrounded by a world
painted in colors of my choosing,*
**[02:50] ---**
*where do I find meaning in
the scars I could not choose?*
**[02:54] ---**
*In the heart of a world
where only I am the hero,*
**[02:59] ---**
*I'm onstage, appearing
in every scene until the end*
**[03:03] ---**
*What do I do? I can't
even pretend to be empty*
**[03:08] ---**
*Hello, hi there, here I am*
**[03:13] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[03:40] ---**
What is this, Mr. Gilbert?
**[03:43] ---**
He said that he was kicked out of his place,
**[03:46] ---**
as a result of it becoming a high-class hotel.
**[03:49] ---**
Shouldn't we be giving him a larger stipend?
**[03:53] ---**
He hasn't quit his other job,
and he's sending his money home, right?
**[03:56] ---**
I offered the same suggestion,
**[03:59] ---**
but he said that he does not wish
anything more than the basic rate.
**[04:02] ---**
How conscientious.
**[04:09] ---**
That's a lot of blood.
**[04:11] ---**
I got tangled up with some strung-out punk.
**[04:14] ---**
He came at me like a bat out of hell,
**[04:17] ---**
so I laid into his carotid artery.
**[04:21] ---**
I wonder if he's dead.
**[04:23] ---**
Was he human?
**[04:24] ---**
Judging by the feel and
how he came apart, yeah.
**[04:26] ---**
I see.
**[04:27] ---**
I don't know of any drug that
lets people survive decapitation.
**[04:32] ---**
Oh no?
**[04:36] ---**
Angel Scale (noun)
**[04:38] ---**
An ultra-advanced designer drug.
**[04:40] ---**
This new drug makes possible
a temporary physical alteration,
**[04:43] ---**
involving perceptual sensitization,
muscular and reflexive augmentation, etc.
**[04:47] ---**
This whole thing reeks of money.
**[04:49] ---**
Word is that a gram of it trades
for tens of thousands of zeros.
**[04:53] ---**
It's an even bigger deal if
you traffic it on the outside.
**[04:56] ---**
And on that note,
**[04:57] ---**
Ow-w-w-w-w!
**[04:57] ---**
please take a look at this.
**[05:12] ---**
That *was* on the outside, wasn't it?
**[05:14] ---**
That's correct, you damn monkey.
**[05:16] ---**
Don't go dropping "damn monkey"
each and every time. Is that polite?
**[05:19] ---**
This really is pretty bad news.
**[05:22] ---**
Chain, you start with any gang connections.
**[05:24] ---**
Right.
**[05:25] ---**
Zapp, dig up what you can from the pushers.
**[05:27] ---**
You bet.
**[05:28] ---**
Are you okay with that, Klaus?
**[05:39] ---**
Nicely done, Mr. Yamakawa.
**[05:43] ---**
I resign.
**[05:45] ---**
You sure like that, don't you?
**[05:49] ---**
What?
**[05:58] ---**
Waah! Yikes! He ain't breathing!
**[06:02] ---**
What do we do, Mr. Gilbert?!
**[06:03] ---**
My goodness, what a fine game that was.
**[06:07] ---**
Don't you die, now, Leo!
**[06:08] ---**
If you die, it'll be my fault!
**[06:10] ---**
Don't die! Hey!
If you die, it's all over! Hey!
**[06:14] ---**
Okay, you're dismissed. Be sure to keep in touch.
**[06:16] ---**
Say it's not my fault first! Leo!
**[06:18] ---**
A Game Between Two Worlds
**[06:21] ---**
However, despite an intense
information-gathering effort,
**[06:25] ---**
we didn't manage to find even a clue
**[06:27] ---**
Do a good deed daily
**[06:27] ---**
as to the Angel Scale trafficking routes.
**[06:37] ---**
Things are moving in fairly
deep places, aren't they?
**[06:40] ---**
There's a good chance
they've gone underground.
**[06:43] ---**
That video of the president was going
around a lot among the underworld.
**[06:47] ---**
Shall we dig in a little deeper?
**[06:51] ---**
If we dig in any deeper,
we'll be going to the alterworld.
**[07:05] ---**
K.K.!
**[07:06] ---**
Oh, Klausie!
**[07:08] ---**
You've kept me waiting, you know.
**[07:12] ---**
Are you hurt?
**[07:12] ---**
Huh? Are you worried about me?
**[07:14] ---**
I'm so happy!
**[07:17] ---**
Klausie, you're the only one
that cares about me like this.
**[07:21] ---**
Most of humanity is not as
strong as you are. I can't help it.
**[07:25] ---**
But no matter how strong
you are, you're still a lady.
**[07:29] ---**
Feel free to come to me
whenever you're in danger.
**[07:32] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[07:34] ---**
There's nowhere more dangerous
than where we're going now, is there?
**[08:10] ---**
Grandmaster Ulchenko!
**[08:13] ---**
What are you doing down here?
**[08:16] ---**
Who're you?
**[08:17] ---**
Please excuse me.
**[08:18] ---**
My name is Klaus V Reinherz.
**[08:21] ---**
Who're *you*?
**[08:23] ---**
Please remove yourself from here at once.
**[08:25] ---**
This is no place for a normal
person such as yourself to be.
**[08:29] ---**
You have the wrong person. Excuse me.
**[08:36] ---**
There you have it.
**[08:37] ---**
This is absurd.
**[09:14] ---**
Welcome,
**[09:16] ---**
my friend.
**[09:18] ---**
I am most pleased to
see you are so well, Klaus.
**[09:22] ---**
It has been too long, Don Arlelelle.
**[09:27] ---**
Arlelelle Eruca Fulgrouche--
**[09:30] ---**
one of the leading bosses in the alterworld.
**[09:34] ---**
He's not someone that would usually
receive any one of us.
**[09:39] ---**
However...
**[09:40] ---**
I'm glad you came,
**[09:43] ---**
my new friend.
**[09:44] ---**
Hello.
**[09:46] ---**
How about we get started
right away, my human visitors?
**[09:54] ---**
This man...
**[09:56] ---**
is an unparalleled Prosfair fan.
**[10:03] ---**
Come,
**[10:05] ---**
let us together enjoy this miraculous game!
**[10:16] ---**
Prosfair (noun)
**[10:17] ---**
A chess-based board game of alterworld origin.
**[10:18] ---**
It has many fans in both the alterworld and
human world. It truly is a beautiful game,
**[10:19] ---**
artistic in its endless complexity. Due to the
**[10:19] ---**
Marked by its highly versatile rules
**[10:21] ---**
artisic value of the pieces used in the game,
**[10:21] ---**
that change to match the competitors' skill.
**[10:23] ---**
there are also many collectors.
**[10:25] ---**
It features intrigue on par with chess.
**[10:28] ---**
However, my study of Prosfair
has also been more than sufficient...
**[10:35] ---**
for this day!
**[10:38] ---**
One moment, please!
**[10:40] ---**
Don Arlelelle,
**[10:42] ---**
are you planning
to play two games today?
**[10:45] ---**
That's right.
**[10:47] ---**
Mr. Ulchenko is one of
mankind's greatest assets.
**[10:49] ---**
If, by some small chance,
his mind were to be lost,
**[10:53] ---**
it would represent a
tremendous loss for our world!
**[10:56] ---**
I ask that you please desist--
**[10:57] ---**
Hey, now...
**[10:59] ---**
I wish you wouldn't speak
for me like I'm not here.
**[11:02] ---**
I have come, well aware
of all the implications.
**[11:05] ---**
Would you mind refraining
from overstepping your bounds?
**[11:10] ---**
And another thing--why do
you assume that I will lose?
**[11:15] ---**
I can say dispassionately,
without any pretentiousness,
**[11:18] ---**
that there is no other human that
excels at this game more than I.
**[11:23] ---**
Hm-hm, that's what I like to hear.
**[11:28] ---**
Mr. Ulchenko!
**[11:30] ---**
Buzz off!
**[11:32] ---**
Just one thing!
**[11:35] ---**
I suggest you forget
trying to checkmate him.
**[11:40] ---**
You're advising me not to win?
I don't even know what that means.
**[11:48] ---**
Of all the...!
**[11:50] ---**
Does he really not know what you mean?!
**[11:53] ---**
If all he wants is to play a game,
let him find a cafŽ in Paris, man!
**[12:00] ---**
Tell me...
**[12:04] ---**
Are you worried, Klausie?
**[12:08] ---**
I want my nation to possess nuclear powers.
**[12:12] ---**
Nine hours.
**[12:14] ---**
It'll be all right!
He's a wizard at chess, right?
**[12:19] ---**
That is a request worthy
of a nine-hour game.
**[12:23] ---**
If you hold on that long or force
a draw, let alone get me to resign,
**[12:28] ---**
you will win.
**[12:30] ---**
I hate to point this out,
**[12:32] ---**
but you've come back out of
there alive four times now, right?
**[12:39] ---**
If you win, I promise you
that I will grant your request.
**[12:52] ---**
I...
**[12:53] ---**
have not come back alive a winner.
**[12:59] ---**
Also, about the man and woman out front...
**[13:02] ---**
I want them eliminated.
**[13:05] ---**
I can't have my visit here
becoming public knowledge.
**[13:10] ---**
Hmm.
**[13:12] ---**
He is not the sort of man to speak
outside of events that happen here.
**[13:18] ---**
I did nothing more than
hold out for the duration,
**[13:20] ---**
making it out of there
by the skin of my teeth.
**[13:26] ---**
However, as you wish.
**[13:29] ---**
We will extend it to ten hours,
and I will agree to that, as well.
**[13:33] ---**
If you lose,
**[13:35] ---**
I will claim the rest of your remaining life.
**[13:48] ---**
Prosfair grows more complex
the more competitive it becomes.
**[13:55] ---**
Additionally, the more time passes,
**[13:58] ---**
the difficulty level increases exponentially.
**[14:02] ---**
*Tor me-tor. Dey carlio.*
**[14:06] ---**
My warning to Mister Ulchenko
to forget about checkmate
**[14:11] ---**
was by no means a trick.
**[14:17] ---**
What is this?
**[14:21] ---**
Is it getting hot in here?
**[14:24] ---**
A little bit...
**[14:33] ---**
And so, from now until the end of time,
**[14:37] ---**
there will probably be no human...
**[14:40] ---**
who will ever be able to beat him at Prosfair.
**[14:45] ---**
Mr. Ulchenko!
**[14:47] ---**
Indeed, it was a close one.
**[14:50] ---**
It's too bad; he only had two minutes to go.
**[14:54] ---**
Still, I'd like to express my gratitude.
**[14:56] ---**
The chance meeting between our
two worlds is an event to be welcomed.
**[15:08] ---**
Now, as promised...
**[15:11] ---**
I will have the remainder of your life.
**[15:19] ---**
I ask that you forgive my discourtesy.
**[15:22] ---**
I would request that you wait
**[15:24] ---**
until after we have played our
game to carry out your promise.
**[15:27] ---**
No way... is what I'd normally say,
**[15:30] ---**
but you and I are on our own special terms.
**[15:33] ---**
Now then, I do not wish to
be too unkind. Let me see...
**[15:38] ---**
99 hours.
**[15:40] ---**
If you entertain me for that long,
I will think nothing of it.
**[15:43] ---**
I accept.
**[15:47] ---**
Well now, why don't you tell
me what your *other* request is?
**[15:52] ---**
Information regarding Angel Scale's
sources and trafficking routes.
**[15:57] ---**
I suspected as much.
**[16:00] ---**
I have to ask, why do your requests always
**[16:03] ---**
run up against the
chokepoints of world affairs?
**[16:07] ---**
Sorry about that, my old friend.
**[16:10] ---**
Don't mention it.
**[16:12] ---**
It's kind of like a ritual I go through
**[16:14] ---**
to produce a marvelous game of
Prosfair complete with a sense of tension.
**[16:19] ---**
Once you play me for 99 hours,
I shall grant that, as well.
**[16:25] ---**
We've been set up!
**[16:27] ---**
That old geezer's goal was to
get Klaus in there from the start!
**[16:37] ---**
Why hasn't he come out?
**[16:41] ---**
What a foolish thing to ask.
It's because he hasn't lost.
**[16:45] ---**
They say that that monster has
spent 1,200 years just on Prosfair.
**[16:52] ---**
I can't imagine playing for
99 hours without rest against him.
**[16:57] ---**
Just who is he? How is
he competing against him?
**[17:08] ---**
He's Klaus V Reinherz--
**[17:11] ---**
our mighty leader,
and an unrivaled gentleman.
**[17:15] ---**
An almost brutally headstrong man,
armed with a beastly vitality.
**[17:21] ---**
My *Gore* at F8 morphs to Level 14,
and takes your *Guichard*.
**[17:27] ---**
My *Laazi* is now at *Barlum* 55.
**[17:30] ---**
My *Cain* 19 and *Shamain* 7
are in *Ozzeau-averdidect.*
**[17:38] ---**
Pledge: *Daurasex me-tor.*
**[17:41] ---**
*El arlio.*
**[17:43] ---**
*Venalcantos.*
**[17:48] ---**
It's been a long time since
I've seen this piece come out.
**[17:51] ---**
By my estimation, at the very least,
**[17:55] ---**
my upcoming offensive drive
will continue for fully 36 hours.
**[18:00] ---**
Don't let it break you, Klaus.
**[18:03] ---**
Understood.
**[18:07] ---**
I will confront you with everything I have.
**[18:23] ---**
This man is an interesting one, all right.
**[18:26] ---**
He made a deal with his life
without the slightest hesitation,
**[18:30] ---**
to protect the other one.
**[18:33] ---**
And the information that he seeks
is a matter of such great import
**[18:36] ---**
that the fate of the world
could be swayed by it.
**[18:42] ---**
Why does he pile on greater risk
so casually? It's truly irrational.
**[18:51] ---**
I don't understand these humans.
**[18:56] ---**
Do you regret anything?
**[18:58] ---**
Not one bit.
**[19:00] ---**
Why not?
**[19:02] ---**
All I can say is that I
made up my mind not to.
**[19:05] ---**
Hmm...
**[19:08] ---**
Everything has been well-considered.
**[19:23] ---**
Hmm...
**[19:25] ---**
Klaus, about this Ulchenko chap that you
are now risking your life trying to rescue...
**[19:34] ---**
In our previous game, without even
batting an eye, he asked me...
**[19:41] ---**
to eliminate you.
**[19:45] ---**
Don't you think that's ridiculous?
**[19:48] ---**
Don't you, Klaus V Reinherz?
**[19:54] ---**
Are you really trying to save that guy?
**[20:03] ---**
People are weak.
**[20:05] ---**
Because of their weakness,
**[20:07] ---**
they sometimes
behave in ways devoid of self-respect.
**[20:15] ---**
But then, so what if they do, my old friend?
**[20:21] ---**
Even if I am struck
with a thousand setbacks...
**[20:26] ---**
it does not serve as a
reason to alter the way I live...
**[20:31] ---**
my life!
**[20:37] ---**
Klaus!
**[20:39] ---**
As promised, I will tell you
the Angel Scale trafficking routes.
**[20:44] ---**
Also, Ulchenko, you are free to go.
**[20:51] ---**
Start raiding the people
and places I'm about to tell you!
**[20:54] ---**
Hit them with all you have before
they realize what's happening!
**[20:57] ---**
Got it?!
**[20:58] ---**
Tell them that if by any chance they fail,
**[21:00] ---**
I'll kill every one of them!
**[21:08] ---**
As for where Mr. Klaus
got that kind of information,
**[21:12] ---**
the truth is, not even the
other members know for sure.
**[21:16] ---**
Off the cuff, I asked if it had
anything to do with that game,
**[21:22] ---**
but nobody even gave me the time of day.
**[21:24] ---**
Though, you know,
anything can happen in this world.
**[21:30] ---**
"Anything can happen in this world."
**[21:42] ---**
One can even become friends
**[21:44] ---**
with a cute girl, out of the blue.
**[21:45] ---**
It still has this, too? I'm so glad!
**[21:49] ---**
What?
**[21:50] ---**
Huh? Nothing!
**[21:52] ---**
Are you enjoying those?
I didn't shoot anything that great.
**[21:55] ---**
They really are quite interesting.
**[21:58] ---**
I've been locked up in
here for three whole years,
**[22:01] ---**
with never anything to do.
**[22:04] ---**
I'm glad I found someone else
to talk to besides my brother.
**[22:08] ---**
Okay.
**[22:14] ---**
What?
**[22:16] ---**
Mm-mm, nothing.
**[22:19] ---**
Nice pictures.
**[22:20] ---**
You think so?
**[22:22] ---**
Thanks.
**[22:24] ---**
I'll bet you have sharp eyes.
**[22:31] ---**
Ha, actually, better than 20/10 in both eyes.
**[22:35] ---**
I knew it!
**[22:36] ---**
*Accustomed to the supernatural

**[22:39] ---**

peanuts and bitter step*
**[23:23] ---**
*So sweet and then so acrid,
it makes my head spin*
**[23:26] ---**
*Let's head south-southwest
and keep this party going*
**[23:30] ---**
*to make it a night
that will astonish the world*
**[23:34] ---**
*I feel fantastic, a chain of reflections*
**[23:41] ---**

*I feel fantastic,
the chain of reflections goes on*
**[24:00] ---**
*From one good time,
to a problem, to another good time*
**[24:07] ---**
"Where is your foe? Your foe is within you."
**[24:12] ---**
I'll bet some people think that.
**[24:14] ---**
It's not true.
**[24:15] ---**
The enemy always comes at you from without.
**[24:17] ---**
Never let your guard down!
**[24:20] ---**
Someone you'll never expect
will come threatening you today.
**[24:25] ---**
Next time on Blood Blockade Battlefront,
**[24:27] ---**
"Blood Line Fever."
**[24:29] ---**
It's too late for introductions now, brother.
**[24:32] ---**
You already know my name, don't you?

The train on track number 4
is bound for Shigorov Hell.
**[00:28] ---**
Please have your passport of consent ready.
**[00:31] ---**
Current survival rate is 12 percent.
**[00:40] ---**
Awesome... There are people
who emit that kind of light, huh?
**[00:44] ---**
They're a group who crowd
whatever place they're in.
**[00:48] ---**
The population here is
about 50 percent monsters.
**[00:51] ---**
20 percent are of unknown
variety. 25 percent are humans,
**[00:56] ---**
but half of them have special
circumstances. You know that, right?
**[00:59] ---**
Yeah.
**[01:07] ---**
What about the remaining five percent?
**[01:10] ---**
The remaining five percent...
**[01:13] ---**
cannot be seen through regular eyes.
**[01:15] ---**
Whatever they are,
they're something dangerous.
**[01:19] ---**
Hellsalem's Lot--a city where this
world and the alterworld intersect.
**[01:24] ---**
This is the record of
the clandestine activities
**[01:27] ---**
of the secret society of supermen,
Libra, which works in the shadows
**[01:31] ---**
to preserve the balance of worlds.
**[01:34] ---**
*Upon opening the door,
I found a twisted noontime evening*
**[01:38] ---**
*How did I get home yesterday?
My body's the only thing I'm sure of*
**[01:43] ---**
*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[01:47] ---**
*among the unknown sights
that have become so familiar*
**[02:01] ---**
*After I figured all was lost,
I've been getting by somehow,*
**[02:05] ---**
*somewhat embarrassed to
be tough enough to still be alive*
**[02:10] ---**
*I know what I have to do, even if I forget*
**[02:14] ---**
*Otherwise, things become so agonizing*
**[02:19] ---**
*I look up to see someone with big black eyes*
**[02:24] ---**
*It's because I saw you
that this light came to be*
**[02:29] ---**
*Surrounded by a world
painted in colors of my choosing,*
**[02:33] ---**
*where do I find meaning in
the scars I could not choose?*
**[02:37] ---**
*In the heart of a world
where only I am the hero,*
**[02:42] ---**
*I'm onstage, appearing
in every scene until the end*
**[02:46] ---**
*What do I do? I can't
even pretend to be empty*
**[02:51] ---**
*Hello, hi there, here I am*
**[02:56] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[03:11] ---**
You say Francesco Lazarollo
is here under top secret status?
**[03:14] ---**
Word is that Goldlake has personally
organized an assassination team.
**[03:18] ---**
Is he seriously going to chuck
his post-retirement Florida years?
**[03:23] ---**
I can just see that hard-assed
Tony running around half-crazy!
**[03:33] ---**
You know, something like
this is nice once in a while.
**[03:36] ---**
You guys have been working too hard lately.
**[03:39] ---**
You've been running full-blast
yourself, right, Patrick?
**[03:42] ---**
Oh, I'm fine.
**[03:44] ---**
I've got a capable assistant
keeping things running smoothly.
**[03:48] ---**
Taking care of weapons are
all part of my purpose in life.
**[03:51] ---**
Go ahead and bring 'em on!
**[03:55] ---**
You don't have to ask.
It's going to be busy next week.
**[03:58] ---**
Yeah... *That*, huh?
**[04:05] ---**
What's the matter, Leo?
**[04:07] ---**
Got anything interesting to say?
**[04:10] ---**
No...
**[04:11] ---**
That's true. You're our
big up-and-comer, right?
**[04:14] ---**
Tell us a joke that will put us in stitches!
**[04:18] ---**
I-I can't! Mr. Patrick, please stop!
**[04:21] ---**
How have things been lately?
**[04:24] ---**
I'll bet you're getting pretty
settled in here, aren't you?
**[04:28] ---**
I sure am.
**[04:31] ---**
Some of the sketchiness here
may still be getting to me, though.
**[04:35] ---**
Just today, on the subway,
**[04:37] ---**
I saw someone who had the most incredible
crimson aura, stretching out like wings,
**[04:40] ---**
and I thought, "That's awesome,"
because they were so pretty...
**[04:42] ---**
and I sort of said so... out loud... Huh?
**[04:50] ---**
Leonardo,
**[04:53] ---**
did you just say that
their light shone like red wings?
**[04:57] ---**
Er, uh, yes.
**[05:00] ---**
If you were to be exact,
**[05:02] ---**
was it this color?
**[05:03] ---**
Oh, yes it was.
**[05:05] ---**
Seriously?
**[05:06] ---**
Damn it.
**[05:08] ---**
It was... like that.
**[05:11] ---**
Let me tell you something,
my poor little subject.
**[05:15] ---**
What's up with the
rough-hewn king character?
**[05:18] ---**
Are we doing dime-store roleplaying?
**[05:20] ---**
What you saw...
**[05:22] ---**
was a vampire.
**[05:29] ---**
What exactly is it that I saw?
**[05:31] ---**
Why, you...!
**[05:34] ---**
Blood Breeds (noun)
**[05:34] ---**
"Noble beings cloaked in wings of red."
**[05:36] ---**
Monsters spoken of in popular folklore.
**[05:38] ---**
Also known as vampires.
**[05:38] ---**
That's how it's famously stated
in historical documents.
**[05:41] ---**
They are nearly immortal creatures.
**[05:41] ---**
Following some research,
**[05:42] ---**
Recent research has revealed that they are
**[05:42] ---**
it has been proven that they do exist,
**[05:45] ---**
'altered humans' who have had
their DNA overwritten.
**[05:45] ---**
but they remain a phenomenon that cannot
**[05:48] ---**
be detected by any type
of optical instrument or sensor.
**[05:51] ---**
Do Vampires Really Exist?
**[05:51] ---**
Dracula's Castle
**[05:51] ---**
Vampire Legends
**[05:52] ---**
Vampires still sound pretty out there.
**[05:54] ---**
I'm damn sure gonna pound you to tears afterward!
**[05:58] ---**
They'd have to be in an Elder-class dwelling.
**[06:01] ---**
Not at all like the scum
that lives on the outside.
**[06:05] ---**
The information we can
now obtain, thanks to him,
**[06:08] ---**
is about to skyrocket in
both quality and quantity.
**[06:11] ---**
It's time for the specialist.
**[06:13] ---**
Ugh...
**[06:14] ---**
For real?
**[06:16] ---**
You're really going to call him?
**[06:19] ---**
Honestly, he'll probably
come even if we don't call him.
**[06:24] ---**
It would be unthinkable to
consider the situation without him.
**[06:31] ---**
Who is this man?
**[06:34] ---**
Mr. Zapp?
**[06:48] ---**
"Lucky Abrams"?
**[06:50] ---**
To put it briefly, he's one of
the world's leading vampire experts.
**[06:56] ---**
The chief considers him to be like a mentor.
**[06:58] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[07:01] ---**
The chief has always been that way.
**[07:03] ---**
But then again, that goes for all of us.
**[07:05] ---**
Back in the day, he devoted
himself to putting down monsters
**[07:08] ---**
around the world's seamier
back alleys. You caught that, right?
**[07:12] ---**
Yeah.
**[07:14] ---**
Normally, just having good luck
wouldn't get you that nickname.
**[07:19] ---**
Meaning what?
**[07:21] ---**
Zapp!
**[07:24] ---**
I found you!
**[07:36] ---**
Zapp! Are you all right?
**[07:40] ---**
This city is as dangerous as ever.
**[07:45] ---**
I don't care how many lives
you've got, it won't be enough.
**[07:51] ---**
Ah... pardon me... Mr. Abrams...
**[07:55] ---**
but could I ask you to give us a little space?
**[08:00] ---**
Hello! How have you been,
you good-for-nothing deadbeats?
**[08:04] ---**
Klaus!
**[08:06] ---**
Same old big lug.
**[08:09] ---**
Are you still working as hard
as the world beats down on you?
**[08:13] ---**
We had a hunch that you
would be arriving shortly.
**[08:17] ---**
I'm impressed you would know.
I didn't leave any word with you.
**[08:21] ---**
There was a crash landing at...
**[08:24] ---**
Newark
International Airport not long ago.
**[08:28] ---**
He's here.
**[08:29] ---**
Here he comes.
**[08:30] ---**
That must be him.
**[08:32] ---**
Unaware
**[08:35] ---**
That's a signal of my approach?
What can I say?
**[08:42] ---**
I nearly got run over
by a truck on my way here,
**[08:45] ---**
but I was spared at the last second!
**[08:47] ---**
Do you get it now?
**[08:49] ---**
The meaning of his nickname
and the reason for our expressions?
**[08:55] ---**
Lucky Abrams (noun)
**[08:57] ---**
One of the world's foremost experts on vampires.
**[08:59] ---**
As such, he is the recipient
of a curse from them.
**[09:02] ---**
Owing to his luck,
he personally remains unharmed,
**[09:05] ---**
while those around him who fall victim
to the curse in his stead are many.
**[09:09] ---**
Leonardo?!
**[09:12] ---**
Yes?
**[09:12] ---**
You are the holder of the
All-seeing Eyes of the Gods?!
**[09:16] ---**
Yes.
**[09:18] ---**
Why didn't you say so sooner?!
**[09:20] ---**
First aid treatment
**[09:22] ---**
The first thing I'd like
you to do is look at this.
**[09:29] ---**
You mean, the hand?
**[09:31] ---**
It is no ordinary hand.
**[09:33] ---**
It is an important item
relating to the Elder 13.
**[09:37] ---**
Elder 13 (noun)
**[09:37] ---**
Our society has only directly run into
**[09:39] ---**
Refers to a particularly eminent group of 13.
**[09:39] ---**
Our society has only directly run into
**[09:40] ---**
Eternal beings who possess an astonishing
**[09:40] ---**
their number once in the past.
**[09:42] ---**
regenerative capacity
and next to no weaknesses.
**[09:42] ---**
their number once in the past.
**[09:44] ---**
It ended up with an entire
battleship being taken over,
**[09:48] ---**
and almost as though to sneer at us,
they took the 343 crew members
**[09:54] ---**
and erected a cross
made out them. Further...
**[10:00] ---**
we lost the lives of 47
elite agents over this hand.
**[10:05] ---**
Or to be more precise,
**[10:06] ---**
over the scrap of loose-leaf paper in its grip.
**[10:14] ---**
It clings ever tenaciously,
even separated from its body.
**[10:17] ---**
Our supposition is that it is a list of names--
**[10:20] ---**
that the true names of the
Elder 13 are recorded on it.
**[10:25] ---**
Name
**[10:25] ---**
A name contains power.
**[10:26] ---**
Power of Words
**[10:27] ---**
They intensely despise becoming
beings whose names can be called.
**[10:35] ---**
Now, try to read this, Leonardo.
**[10:38] ---**
Seize on the true nature of those
who are as elusive as the mist!
**[10:55] ---**
Leo!
**[10:56] ---**
Are you all right?
**[11:00] ---**
That was spooky...
**[11:03] ---**
Huh?
**[11:05] ---**
What's this?
**[11:08] ---**
Mr. Klaus...
**[11:10] ---**
the light...
**[11:12] ---**
keeps getting more...
**[11:13] ---**
Leo!
**[11:33] ---**
Just now!
**[11:34] ---**
Just now, that ultra-sorcerous whatsit
got knocked out of the sky by a meteor!
**[11:38] ---**
I've never seen anything
get hit by a meteor before!
**[11:41] ---**
We're using public transportation
here, Zapp. Keep quiet.
**[11:45] ---**
Something like that isn't
that unusual around here, is it?
**[11:48] ---**
It's super-rare, I'm telling you!
**[11:50] ---**
Ugh! Why do I have to go someplace
like this with someone like you?!
**[11:59] ---**
The chief doesn't take the train often,
and seems unusually giddy.
**[12:04] ---**
And other than his smarts, personality,
and luck, pops here is a regular guy.
**[12:11] ---**
Is he going to be okay?
**[12:13] ---**
Apparently, his eyes are
in a slightly overdriven state.
**[12:17] ---**
He seems to be seeing things
that are usually in a cut-off range.
**[12:22] ---**
This could be our chance.
**[12:24] ---**
We're going to get a peek at the
Elders that lurk on the other side.
**[12:27] ---**
Yggdrashiad Central Station...
Yggdrashiad Central Station...
**[12:41] ---**
Are you all right?
**[12:43] ---**
I can't take any more!
**[12:48] ---**
Okay, start recording!
**[12:50] ---**
September 12th, 16 hours,
45 minutes, and 32 seconds.
**[12:57] ---**
How do you do, everyone?
This is Blitz T. Abrams.
**[13:01] ---**
We are currently at
Yggdrashiad Central Station,
**[13:04] ---**
located directly over the center of the
hole that is the heart of Hellsalem's Lot.
**[13:09] ---**
What we are about to conduct is a
search of the "Eternal Nothingness"
**[13:12] ---**
by a young man who possesses
the "All-seeing Eyes of the Gods."
**[13:15] ---**
This may be the first time in human history
**[13:18] ---**
that we grasp a clear picture of the Elder 13.
**[13:22] ---**
Listen, as soon as you sense
anything abnormal, close your eyes.
**[13:27] ---**
No,
**[13:28] ---**
if possible, hang in there until
the last second before closing your eyes.
**[13:32] ---**
No, hang in there until the last second,
**[13:35] ---**
and when you feel "There's no
hope left! I am very clearly going to die!
**[13:39] ---**
I'm done for! I'm utterly
done for! Stop! Stop! Stop!"
**[13:44] ---**
*Then* close your eyes.
**[13:45] ---**
Enough, already!
**[13:52] ---**
"Noble beings cloaked in wings of red."
**[13:55] ---**
You remember the color of their light, right?
**[13:58] ---**
Yes.
**[14:01] ---**
Is there one of them? Are there 13 of them?
**[14:04] ---**
If we can confirm that they are within
the hole, I could ask for no more.
**[14:32] ---**
Leo! Are you okay?!
**[14:36] ---**
What on earth did you see?!
**[14:41] ---**
It was bad.
**[14:43] ---**
Beneath us, it's bathed in crimson.
Far from just 13 of them...
**[14:50] ---**
Down there... the place is full of them!
**[14:59] ---**
Klaus.
**[15:00] ---**
Young Sir, we have an
emergency on our hands.
**[15:03] ---**
We just received a request
for assistance from the FBI.
**[15:07] ---**
They are currently being engaged
at the Stomcreed Avenue Station.
**[15:14] ---**
They are probably engaging
Elder-class Blood Breeds.
**[15:21] ---**
Yee-haw!
**[15:26] ---**
They surmise that they will be unable
to control them without you, Young Sir.
**[15:33] ---**
Please return on the double!
**[15:36] ---**
They've broken through
the 2nd defense perimeter!
**[15:38] ---**
We were wiped out!
**[15:39] ---**
Watch yourself!
They come attacking as ghouls!
**[15:42] ---**
Hey there, don't give them
any more soldiers to fight with.
**[15:46] ---**
Stand aside.
**[15:48] ---**
You're going in there underequipped!
**[15:50] ---**
Nah, we'll be fine. For special jobs,
you call in the specialists.
**[15:54] ---**
Ah, this is horrible.
**[15:56] ---**
I can't possibly be in a two-man
cell with *this* black-hearted man.
**[15:59] ---**
Oh, don't say that, K.K.
**[16:01] ---**
This beats charging in after
Elders alone in all sorts of ways.
**[16:05] ---**
Let's be reasonable.
**[16:07] ---**
I've been waiting three years for this.
**[16:11] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[16:12] ---**
I've been hoping that
this day would never come.
**[16:16] ---**
You're so hopeless.
**[16:18] ---**
I just want things to go smoothly, that's all.
**[16:23] ---**
954 Blood Bullet Arts!
**[16:25] ---**
Esmerelda Blood Freeze!
**[16:33] ---**
Electrigger 1.25 Gigawatt!
**[16:33] ---**
Espada del Cero Absoluto!
**[16:42] ---**
Is that the friend that you wanted beaten?
**[16:46] ---**
Stand back.
**[16:47] ---**
This could kill you if you're not careful.
**[16:49] ---**
We hold them for four minutes.
**[16:51] ---**
Don't tell me what to do.
**[16:55] ---**
Here goes.
**[16:56] ---**
Right.
**[17:00] ---**
Sorry, but could you
hurry it up a little more?
**[17:10] ---**
Are those...?
**[17:34] ---**
If that place is swarming with those guys,
**[17:37] ---**
how have we been safe up until now?
**[17:41] ---**
If even one of them
became inclined to blend in,
**[17:44] ---**
and start encroaching on us,
**[17:45] ---**
the human world would...
**[17:51] ---**
...easily be finished!
**[18:00] ---**
Leonardo, with your eyes,
**[18:04] ---**
you should be able
to make out what the Blood Breeds look like.
**[18:09] ---**
And their vulnerability!
**[18:23] ---**
This takes me back.
**[18:25] ---**
Did he take this?
**[18:28] ---**
What?
**[18:30] ---**
I knew those eyes are the real deal.
**[18:34] ---**
You two have kind of let me down.
**[18:38] ---**
Sorry to disappoint.
**[18:41] ---**
We had heard that you were
specialized human weapons.
**[18:45] ---**
You're just one step away.
**[18:49] ---**
While your blood, eating away and
doing damage at the cellular level,
**[18:54] ---**
would indeed be our natural enemy,
our recovery starts in that very moment.
**[19:01] ---**
You see? All better.
**[19:06] ---**
That's good enough, monstress.
**[19:10] ---**
Whether it takes 1,000 years, or 1,500 years,
**[19:14] ---**
mankind is certain to overtake you.
**[19:18] ---**
The day when we turn the paradox
of killing the immortal around...
**[19:22] ---**
will someday come.
**[19:25] ---**
This is one grand play for time.
**[19:29] ---**
But if, during this play for time,
**[19:31] ---**
there are already fangs that
can reach even the Elders...
**[19:38] ---**
...what will you do?
**[19:43] ---**
I will now apply... my Brain
**[19:46] ---**
my Brain
Grid Blood Battle Technique!
**[19:55] ---**
Valsh Rozzo Valctovoel Girika...
**[19:59] ---**
I hereby...
**[20:01] ---**
My name...?
**[20:01] ---**
...seal you.
**[20:04] ---**
Despise me. Forgive me. Resign yourself.
**[20:09] ---**
I take these barbarous actions
to protect the human world!
**[20:15] ---**
Form 999!
**[20:17] ---**
*Ewiges Gefängnis*!
**[20:33] ---**
No one was able to utter a single word.
**[20:37] ---**
This was the power of the Elder Blood Breed.
**[20:45] ---**
There were close to a thousand of
these things lurking in the depths of Hell.
**[20:51] ---**
We survived today,
but what happens tomorrow?
**[21:03] ---**
Oh.
**[21:05] ---**
I've got it wrong.
**[21:08] ---**
There's a slim chance of turning it around.
**[21:10] ---**
We squeaked through a tight one today,
but who knows about tomorrow?
**[21:15] ---**
Even so, these people know one thing--
**[21:19] ---**
getting your ass kicked by the facts,
and giving up, are two different things.
**[21:36] ---**
Does that go for you, too?
**[21:39] ---**
You can see them too, can't you?
**[21:45] ---**
You may be right.
**[21:49] ---**
Are you--
**[21:49] ---**
Go ahead and guess what I am.
**[21:52] ---**
You already know my name, don't you?
**[21:56] ---**
Eh?
**[22:04] ---**
Huh?
**[22:07] ---**
I'm not going back.
**[22:08] ---**
But everyone's looking for you--
**[22:10] ---**
I don't want to go back.
**[22:25] ---**
Yo, how you doing? I see you're up
to your usual nonsense, Femt.
**[22:30] ---**
It's me,
**[22:31] ---**
your friend,
**[22:34] ---**
the King of Despair.
**[22:36] ---**
*Accustomed to the supernatural
disaster-like madness,*
**[22:39] ---**
*I mistake my daily life for peace*
**[22:42] ---**
*As this rambling coaster
jolts me back and forth,*
**[22:46] ---**
*what is it that I mustn't lose sight of?*
**[22:50] ---**
*Swallowed up by the concept
of egalitarian fundamentalism,*
**[22:53] ---**
*feels like even my soul is so much et cetera*
**[22:57] ---**
*Have to clearly state what
you love and what you hate*
**[23:01] ---**
*or you're not all that different than a dummy*
**[23:04] ---**
*Ah, crowds of people
walking the streets at night*
**[23:08] ---**
*some seem to be so happy,
some seem to be so lonely*
**[23:12] ---**
*The contrast jumps around the music staff*
**[23:17] ---**
*creating the song and rhythm*
**[23:19] ---**
*Marmalade and sugar song,
peanuts and bitter step*
**[23:23] ---**
*So sweet and then so acrid,
it makes my head spin*
**[23:27] ---**
*Let's head south-southwest
and keep this party going*
**[23:30] ---**
*to make it a night
that will astonish the world*
**[23:34] ---**
*I feel fantastic, a chain of reflections*
**[23:41] ---**
*Marmalade and sugar song,
peanuts and bitter step*
**[23:44] ---**
*So sweet and then so acrid,
it makes my head spin*
**[23:48] ---**
*Let's head south-southwest
and keep this party going*
**[23:52] ---**
*to make it a night
that will astonish the world*
**[23:56] ---**
*I feel fantastic,
the chain of reflections goes on*
**[24:00] ---**
*From one good time,
to a problem, to another good time*
**[24:17] ---**
I don't have any idea what he's saying.
**[24:20] ---**
There's no choice but
for you to swallow this.
**[24:22] ---**
The alterworld's own specially made
slightly mystical devil's tongue.
**[24:25] ---**
Once you eat some of this...
**[24:26] ---**
Next time on Blood Blockade Battlefront:
**[24:28] ---**
"The Tremorous Blood Hammer."
**[24:30] ---**
Are you in the next one, too?
**[24:31] ---**
Yes I am, indeed.
**[24:33] ---**
Lucky you.

**[00:07] ---**
Why are you so upset?
**[00:08] ---**
Oh, I'm not upset.
**[00:14] ---**
Th-There's something I have to ask you.
**[00:18] ---**
Have I... done something?
**[00:23] ---**
I told you, it's not that!
**[00:26] ---**
I'm sorry. But,
**[00:30] ---**
I have no idea what you're thinking.
**[00:35] ---**
Michella sometimes gets mad
for no reason, too, doesn't she?
**[00:39] ---**
I'm sure it's like that.
**[00:40] ---**
What's up with you?
**[00:43] ---**
Got some snippy woman problem?
**[00:45] ---**
If I did, you're the last one I'd talk
to about it, Mr. Zapp, so I'm fine--
**[00:51] ---**
You're bothered by trivial matters
because you're hungry. Let's go eat.
**[00:56] ---**
Huh? We'll be late for the meeting.
**[00:59] ---**
Five seconds!
**[01:00] ---**
It'll just take five seconds!
**[01:01] ---**
What can we do in five seconds?
**[01:05] ---**
Hey, Mr. Zapp!
**[01:06] ---**
Let's go to GoGoIchi.
**[01:08] ---**
I won't let you do it!
**[01:10] ---**
Gah! W-What was that?!
**[01:15] ---**
People tend to steer in
the direction they're looking!
**[01:18] ---**
Hey, screw that! You took
control of my eyes, didn't you?!
**[01:23] ---**
W-Whoa! Stop! Guesswork
will only take us so far! Stop!
**[01:29] ---**
Shut up!
**[01:34] ---**
If we'd got caught under
that one, we'd be dead!
**[01:36] ---**
And whose fault would it be?!
Whose fault would it be?!
**[01:50] ---**
*Upon opening the door,
I found a twisted noontime evening*
**[01:54] ---**
*How did I get home yesterday?
My body's the only thing I'm sure of*
**[01:59] ---**
*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[02:03] ---**
*among the unknown sights
that have become so familiar*
**[02:17] ---**
*After I figured all was lost,
I've been getting by somehow,*
**[02:21] ---**
*somewhat embarrassed to
be tough enough to still be alive*
**[02:26] ---**
*I know what I have to do, even if I forget*
**[02:30] ---**
*Otherwise, things become so agonizing*
**[02:35] ---**
*I look up to see someone with big black eyes*
**[02:40] ---**
*It's because I saw you
that this light came to be*
**[02:44] ---**
*Surrounded by a world
painted in colors of my choosing,*
**[02:49] ---**
*where do I find meaning in
the scars I could not choose?*
**[02:53] ---**
*In the heart of a world
where only I am the hero,*
**[02:58] ---**
*I'm onstage, appearing
in every scene until the end*
**[03:02] ---**
*What do I do? I can't
even pretend to be empty*
**[03:07] ---**
*Hello, hi there, here I am*
**[03:12] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[03:22] ---**
The target vehicle is heading
north on Marthenon Street,
**[03:25] ---**
preying on private vehicles as it goes.
**[03:27] ---**
Are you seeing this?
**[03:28] ---**
Okay.
**[03:28] ---**
Nothing is slowing this monster down!
**[03:29] ---**
The live relay has started.
**[03:30] ---**
It's proceeding at a furious pace,
**[03:33] ---**
swallowing everything around it!
**[03:33] ---**
Hmm?
**[03:34] ---**
It's charging forward!
The rumbling is tremendous!
**[03:36] ---**
That Lambretta looks familiar.
**[03:48] ---**
Mr. Klaus!
**[03:50] ---**
Long time no see!
**[03:52] ---**
What brings you by today?
**[03:56] ---**
And Doctor Abrams, too.
Are we celebrating something?
**[04:00] ---**
Look, just keep calm and listen.
**[04:03] ---**
It's her.
**[04:04] ---**
Aligura is here.
**[04:09] ---**
The woman who did this to you.
**[04:11] ---**
Aligura, the Queen of Monomania (noun)
**[04:12] ---**
Aligura, the Queen of Monomania!
**[04:12] ---**
Alterworld person of
l6e6i6s6u6r6e6 influence;
**[04:14] ---**
one of the 'Thirteen Kings.'
**[04:14] ---**
Aah... Who was that?
**[04:15] ---**
Who's that? Who was that?
**[04:21] ---**
Oh... you're looking well, Abrams.
**[04:24] ---**
You little devil. I'll coagulate you,
you son of a bitch.
**[04:28] ---**
No, Deldro! You are my blood.
**[04:33] ---**
I can't have you clotting.
**[04:36] ---**
Whoa, hold on!
**[04:38] ---**
Hey, Lucky, did you mean what you just said?
**[04:42] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:43] ---**
I'll coagulate you.
**[04:43] ---**
No, not that! About Aligura!
**[04:47] ---**
I meant it. She's planning to
recapture you, her handiwork.
**[04:54] ---**
Chain!
**[04:55] ---**
Good luck.
**[05:16] ---**
Are you all right, Leo?!
**[05:18] ---**
Leo!
**[05:25] ---**
Yes?
**[05:26] ---**
Yes, it's me.
**[05:28] ---**
Yes, I'm not dead yet.
**[05:31] ---**
Yes... Yes...
**[05:34] ---**
On top of the truck, I think.
**[05:37] ---**
Yes...
**[05:39] ---**
I'm not entirely sure about that.
**[05:42] ---**
I think I'm just barely hanging on.
**[05:45] ---**
Tremorous
**[05:47] ---**
Ah, it's the kid with the
All-seeing Eyes of the Gods!
**[05:50] ---**
Hey, Leo! Leo!
**[05:50] ---**
What are you doing down there?
**[05:54] ---**
Y-You've got the wrong person!
**[05:56] ---**
I do not!
**[05:57] ---**
The Tremorous Blood Hammer
**[05:57] ---**
I do not!
**[06:04] ---**
Huh?
**[06:05] ---**
Why are you looking at me like that?
You're the one who called.
**[06:09] ---**
Where's Aligura?
**[06:10] ---**
Out there.
**[06:11] ---**
She said she is too busy right now.
**[06:15] ---**
Ah... okay...
**[06:19] ---**
And that's why you're here in her place?
**[06:21] ---**
That's right. I have *nothing* better to do.
**[06:25] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[06:27] ---**
My boyfriend is awfully bad!
**[06:32] ---**
Wrong makes right
**[06:32] ---**
Do a bad deed daily
**[06:32] ---**
He's cold-blooded and ruthless,
**[06:35] ---**
a stranger to feeling sorry,
**[06:38] ---**
and that's what made him
so totally cool, you know?
**[06:42] ---**
Yes.
**[06:43] ---**
However, his looks left
something to be desired.
**[06:47] ---**
Yes.
**[06:48] ---**
But you know what? One day, I found him!
**[06:54] ---**
The handsome man of my dreams!
**[06:57] ---**
Don't you think that was amazing luck?!
**[07:00] ---**
The ideal personality and ideal looks!
**[07:04] ---**
You've lost me.
**[07:06] ---**
Well, you see,
**[07:07] ---**
I crossed them!
**[07:09] ---**
Huh?
**[07:10] ---**
I combined them together,
**[07:13] ---**
and made them the same person!
**[07:15] ---**
I took *his* dynamite personality...
**[07:18] ---**
Deldro
**[07:18] ---**
*dramatization
**[07:19] ---**
and while he was still alive...
**[07:22] ---**
chopped him up...
**[07:23] ---**
pulverized him...
**[07:25] ---**
liquefied him...
**[07:27] ---**
Deldro
**[07:28] ---**
then took the handsome man's blood...
**[07:30] ---**
Hummer
**[07:30] ---**
*dramatization
**[07:31] ---**
-pulled it *all* out...
**[07:33] ---**
Hummer
**[07:33] ---**
Deldro
**[07:34] ---**
and switched *him* in instead!
**[07:36] ---**
"Brody & Hummer"
**[07:38] ---**
Isn't that amazing?
**[07:42] ---**
Yeah.
**[07:42] ---**
Save me, Mr. Klaus! Mr. Klaus!
Mr. Klaus! Mr. Klaus! Mr. Klaus!
**[07:46] ---**
And yet...
**[07:48] ---**
He got taken away, you know?
**[07:50] ---**
By that fellow with the scary face.
**[07:54] ---**
You mean Mr. Klaus?
**[07:56] ---**
Could be.
**[07:58] ---**
Is that why you took me hostage?
**[08:00] ---**
Ow!
**[08:01] ---**
Why would I have to do something like that?
**[08:05] ---**
Huh?
**[08:07] ---**
Aren't you going to use my eyes to find him?
**[08:09] ---**
I don't *need* the All-seeing Eyes
of the Gods. Who do you take me for?
**[08:16] ---**
He's *my* man.
**[08:18] ---**
I... will take back *my* things...
**[08:21] ---**
under *my* own power... for *my* own sake.
**[08:26] ---**
If I accepted help from others,
there wouldn't be any point, right?
**[08:38] ---**
I found you!
**[08:41] ---**
Brody and Hummer!
**[08:45] ---**
I get it now. *You're* the one--
**[08:48] ---**
Aligura!
**[08:55] ---**
What are you doing?
**[08:57] ---**
Huh?
**[09:13] ---**
Got it.
**[09:14] ---**
Let's go!
**[09:15] ---**
Huh?!
**[09:19] ---**
Exocrimson!
**[09:35] ---**
You idiot!!
**[09:38] ---**
Ooh! Aah!
**[09:41] ---**
He's getting a kick out of this.
**[09:43] ---**
I hope Aligura hasn't killed the
All-seeing-Eyes-of-the-Gods kid.
**[09:46] ---**
Oh!
**[09:48] ---**
This is unusual.
**[09:49] ---**
Interested in him?
**[09:52] ---**
Greatly so.
**[09:54] ---**
He blew his own self away
with the power of his punch.
**[09:57] ---**
Still, he took a bite out
of the enemy's momentum.
**[10:00] ---**
This is our chance.
**[10:03] ---**
Geez, man. That's what you get
for punching for all you're worth.
**[10:07] ---**
I mean, that's basic.
**[10:08] ---**
Ha-ha, sorry, sorry.
**[10:10] ---**
If you weren't tucked
inside me, you'd be dead.
**[10:13] ---**
Oh, no!
**[10:14] ---**
In that case, you'd be dead, too, Deldro!
**[10:17] ---**
Huh?!
**[10:18] ---**
Ahem...
**[10:19] ---**
Anyhow...
**[10:21] ---**
It's been too long, everyone!
**[10:25] ---**
Imagine... us being able
to fight together... again!
**[10:32] ---**
I'm so glad.
**[10:33] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:34] ---**
You know, you're still
the same as ever, man.
**[10:37] ---**
Aww, you're too kind.
**[10:39] ---**
That wasn't a compliment.
**[10:39] ---**
Japanese-style kneeling, eh?
**[10:41] ---**
Can we get going again?
**[10:45] ---**
Yes! This time, someplace
with surer footing, if you please.
**[10:49] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[10:50] ---**
That's fantastic, all right.
You really are adorable, Dog Hummer.
**[10:54] ---**
Eh?!
**[10:56] ---**
His looks are pretty hot, at least.
**[10:58] ---**
Pooch!
**[11:00] ---**
Is Leo safe?
**[11:00] ---**
Not you, too!
**[11:01] ---**
He's unharmed.
**[11:04] ---**
I can kind of see why the Queen of
Monomania would be so monomaniacal.
**[11:07] ---**
And how.
**[11:08] ---**
Eh?!
**[11:13] ---**
Give me a break, here!
**[11:15] ---**
There's no need for me to be here, right?!
**[11:18] ---**
Eh? Sure there is.
**[11:21] ---**
Please let me go!
**[11:22] ---**
I told you, I need you.
**[11:25] ---**
What do you want me to
do under these circumstances?
**[11:29] ---**
Share love stories, maybe?
**[11:30] ---**
Please save me, Mr. Klaus!
**[11:33] ---**
Do you have a girlfriend?
**[11:35] ---**
N-No, I do not.
**[11:37] ---**
You at least have someone
you're interested in, right?
**[11:40] ---**
No, I don't, really.
**[11:42] ---**
But there's someone you
are just a *little* bit, isn't there?
**[11:46] ---**
You know, interested in?
**[11:48] ---**
No, I'm really no good in these matters.
**[11:51] ---**
This conversation is
going nowhere, you know!
**[11:53] ---**
Come up with at least one person!
**[11:57] ---**
Don't leave me hanging, here!
**[12:01] ---**
Um... I wouldn't say like,
and I wouldn't say interested,
**[12:06] ---**
but there is this one girl who
I've been hitting it off with lately.
**[12:10] ---**
Mm-hmm. And...?
**[12:13] ---**
That's all.
**[12:14] ---**
You are the dullest man!
**[12:15] ---**
I-I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[12:18] ---**
There's more to it than that, right?
**[12:20] ---**
Th-There really isn't, I tell you!
**[12:23] ---**
Ee-yow!
**[12:26] ---**
Fess up to it!
**[12:28] ---**
Eh?
**[12:31] ---**
Why don't you tell
this girl that you like her?
**[12:35] ---**
Huh?
**[12:36] ---**
Right now, I'm not sure
where things are going, but...
**[12:40] ---**
no way!
**[12:41] ---**
Why not?
**[12:45] ---**
Target engaging. Beginning to move.
**[12:48] ---**
Hey, Dog...
**[12:49] ---**
What, Deldro?
**[12:51] ---**
Why did you charge
that monster back there?
**[13:00] ---**
You know something?
You don't seem to get *any* of this,
**[13:05] ---**
so I'll just tell you.
**[13:08] ---**
You'd completely forgotten all about
Aligura until just a while ago, hadn't you?
**[13:12] ---**
It surprises me how sudden that was.
**[13:15] ---**
The thing about love is, you see...
**[13:18] ---**
you push...
**[13:19] ---**
Fire! Fire!
**[13:20] ---**
...and push...
**[13:21] ---**
What are those things?!
**[13:22] ---**
...and whoever pushes hardest wins!
**[13:28] ---**
But before, you were so proud, weren't you?
**[13:31] ---**
Huh?
**[13:33] ---**
If it's what you want, I'll go.
**[13:36] ---**
We're one in the same, so that's a given.
**[13:43] ---**
You really are one odd bastard.
**[13:49] ---**
Oh, no!
**[13:50] ---**
She's pretty bad news, herself,
**[13:52] ---**
but I have no idea how
I'm going to get out of here!
**[13:56] ---**
Think! Think, Leonardo!
**[13:59] ---**
If I stay here,
I'll end up getting tortured some more!
**[13:59] ---**
Torture
**[14:00] ---**
Love Stories
**[14:01] ---**
Torture
**[14:02] ---**
Think! Think! Think!
**[14:05] ---**
Do you read me, Leonardo?
**[14:06] ---**
*Hai*!
**[14:08] ---**

**[14:12] ---**
Don't talk out loud.
**[14:15] ---**
Answer by coughing.
Once for "yes," twice for "no."
**[14:21] ---**
I hate to just jump right in,
but listen closely.
**[14:24] ---**
It's about the monster truck you're riding in.
**[14:26] ---**
We're about to destroy it.
**[14:28] ---**
Are you okay?
**[14:30] ---**
That being said, we'll have
no chance hitting it head-on.
**[14:35] ---**
We're all going to chip away at it.
**[14:41] ---**
You take control of the truck's field of view,
**[14:43] ---**
and lead it on a direct course
towards Old Park Avenue.
**[14:47] ---**
Can you handle that?
**[14:48] ---**
Can you handle that?!
**[14:55] ---**
Control its vision and change its direction...
**[15:03] ---**
Turn!
**[15:06] ---**
Huh?!

Get away from here, kid.

There's no telling what will

Hey, Hummer!
**[16:39] ---**
Deldro, gather the
blood all around into a fist.
**[16:42] ---**
Our attack will fail if we stay like this.
**[16:44] ---**
Don't be ridiculous, Dog Hummer!
**[16:47] ---**
What's the big idea, exposing yourself?!
**[16:50] ---**
You're gonna die for real!
**[16:51] ---**
Just do it. There's no time.

The target vehicle burst and scattered.
**[17:21] ---**
Hundreds of millions of pieces of scrap metal
rained down on the streets of Hellsalem's Lot.
**[17:31] ---**
Nicely done.
**[17:36] ---**
It's said there were hundreds,
if not hundreds of thousands, of casualties,
**[17:40] ---**
but the exact number is unknown.
**[18:05] ---**
Well, I'm heading home now.
**[18:07] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:08] ---**
You be sure to tell Aligura.
**[18:12] ---**
I'll at least earn the cost of lunch.
**[18:15] ---**
You seem unusually energized, and all.
**[18:19] ---**
I was thinking what a waste it would be.
**[18:22] ---**
That body of yours is pretty handy, I'll bet.
**[18:36] ---**
I put in five stitches.
**[18:38] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:39] ---**
Take care.
**[19:01] ---**
Sonic, let's go home.
**[19:05] ---**
What's with him?
**[19:08] ---**
I'm leaving without you. Aw, I'm so tired.
**[19:12] ---**
I'm ultra-tired, so I'm
heading home and right to bed.
**[19:15] ---**
Aww, today sure was one busy day.
**[19:26] ---**
Aah, man!
**[19:38] ---**
Leo...
**[19:40] ---**
Come on in.
**[19:44] ---**
What's the matter?
**[19:46] ---**
Oh... just a little... you know...
**[19:54] ---**
Want to go see a movie?!
**[19:59] ---**
Amazing! I really got out of there!
**[20:02] ---**
Yeah, sorry.
**[20:04] ---**
If they get mad at you, I'm really sorry.
**[20:07] ---**
That's okay; this is worth
them getting mad at me.
**[20:09] ---**
But what suddenly came over you?
**[20:12] ---**
This isn't like you, is it?
**[20:13] ---**
Huh?
**[20:14] ---**
Oh, well, you know...
**[20:17] ---**
I got tortured.
**[20:19] ---**
Huh?!
**[20:19] ---**
Oh, nothing, never mind!
**[20:21] ---**
That can't be right!
**[20:24] ---**
It's true! Believe me, my brother!
**[20:27] ---**
We're twin brothers!
**[20:29] ---**
I've been looking for you for a long time!
**[20:31] ---**
You've gotta be kidding!
How can we be brothers?!
**[20:36] ---**
We don't look at all alike!
**[20:38] ---**
Still...
**[20:41] ---**
Knock it off! I'm not some
well-put-together stud like you!
**[20:47] ---**
Please, stop looking at me like that!
**[20:49] ---**
Are you planning to
peek inside my pants, too?!
**[21:24] ---**
Are you okay?
**[21:26] ---**
I'm sorry... It's nothing...
**[21:33] ---**
I'm sorry... You were nice enough
to bring me here and everything...
**[21:36] ---**
No, *I'm* the one who's sorry!
**[21:39] ---**
I didn't think a comedy like
this would bring so many tears!
**[21:48] ---**
Sorry.
**[21:52] ---**
Actually,
**[21:54] ---**
it kind of made
*me* want to cry even more.
**[21:58] ---**
It reminds me a lot of my own family.
**[22:01] ---**
In my family, it's my sister
who's the well-put-together one.
**[22:05] ---**
I'm the older brother,
but all I do is make trouble for her.
**[22:09] ---**
I'm pathetic, you know?
**[22:20] ---**
No you're not.
**[22:25] ---**
You're a good guy, Leo.
**[22:36] ---**

Hey there, ladies and gentlemen!
**[24:09] ---**
This is the King of Depravity, Femt,
bringing you your next episode preview!
**[24:12] ---**
I'll bet you never even dreamed that the
same character would take the mound twice!
**[24:15] ---**
You idiots!
**[24:18] ---**
You haven't learned a thing, have you?
**[24:20] ---**
Who'd have thought
that the day would come
**[24:22] ---**
when I would be fearful
about the fall of mankind?
**[24:25] ---**
Ha, it must be the end of the world.
**[24:27] ---**
Next time on Blood Blockade Battlefront:
**[24:28] ---**
"Don't Forget to Don't Forget Me."
**[24:30] ---**
Now, be sure not to lose
sight of just who I am, okay?

**[00:06] ---**
Good morning, Gotham.
**[00:08] ---**
Ghetto Heights (noun)
**[00:10] ---**
This is 42nd Street WMP Radio.
**[00:11] ---**
A district within HL
left over from the cityscape
**[00:14] ---**
Jimmy Laswell will be
**[00:14] ---**
that isolates it from the fog.
**[00:15] ---**
It excludes those from the alterworld.
**[00:15] ---**
coming to you live until noon.
**[00:19] ---**
Two Jack Cheese Rocket Burgers,
two Jack Chili Rocket Dogs,
**[00:24] ---**
one french fry, one onion ring, a large Peps
and a large Diet Peps, your order is ready.
**[00:30] ---**
Here!
**[00:52] ---**
How much does it cost
to maintain all of this?
**[00:59] ---**
Hey, buddy! I've got something
that'll knock the socks off a huma!
**[01:04] ---**
Got any Frisky? I'm buying Frisky!
**[01:06] ---**
Got some adult content here!
No? Nastier than the swimsuit stuff!
**[01:12] ---**
Old newspapers, old magazines, all the big
names! Tasty bundles, all smeared with ink!
**[01:17] ---**
Pretty thick here, huh?
**[01:20] ---**
The isolation and exclusion spur
on their appetites even more.
**[01:26] ---**
Did I say that?
**[01:33] ---**
A-A-Are you all right?!
**[01:39] ---**
Excuse me, but could you please
give me a bite of that burger?
**[01:42] ---**
You're food grubbing?!
**[01:45] ---**
Hellsalem's Lot--a city where this
world and the alterworld intersect.
**[01:50] ---**
This is the record of
the clandestine activities
**[01:53] ---**
of the secret society of supermen,
Libra, which works in the shadows
**[01:56] ---**
to preserve the balance of worlds.
**[02:00] ---**
*Upon opening the door,
I found a twisted noontime evening*
**[02:04] ---**
*How did I get home yesterday?
My body's the only thing I'm sure of*
**[02:09] ---**
*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[02:13] ---**
*among the unknown sights
that have become so familiar*
**[02:27] ---**
*After I figured all was lost,
I've been getting by somehow,*
**[02:31] ---**
*somewhat embarrassed to
be tough enough to still be alive*
**[02:36] ---**
*I know what I have to do, even if I forget*
**[02:40] ---**
*Otherwise, things become so agonizing*
**[02:45] ---**
*I look up to see someone with big black eyes*
**[02:50] ---**
*It's because I saw you
that this light came to be*
**[02:54] ---**
*Surrounded by a world
painted in colors of my choosing,*
**[02:59] ---**
*where do I find meaning in
the scars I could not choose?*
**[03:03] ---**
*In the heart of a world
where only I am the hero,*
**[03:08] ---**
*I'm onstage, appearing
in every scene until the end*
**[03:12] ---**
*What do I do? I can't
even pretend to be empty*
**[03:17] ---**
*Hello, hi there, here I am*
**[03:22] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[03:30] ---**
Are you hurt?
**[03:30] ---**
Burger!
**[03:33] ---**
Don't worry! I don't have
a skeleton like a huma.
**[03:38] ---**
I am more-or-less soft,
so please give me your burger!
**[03:41] ---**
Sorry, I'm confused. Could you slow down?
**[03:42] ---**
Please!
**[03:45] ---**
Hey, you! That was dangerous, you dumbass!
**[03:48] ---**
Now, now...
**[03:49] ---**
You're the one who darted out,
you know! This isn't on us!
**[03:53] ---**
That's true enough, but you
still made awfully hard contact,
**[03:57] ---**
so you should at least exchange addresses.
**[03:59] ---**
Huh? I ain't obligated to!
And he looks fine, doesn't he?
**[04:03] ---**
Asking for your burger like that!
**[04:05] ---**
There's no problem here, right?
**[04:08] ---**
Yes! Burger!
**[04:10] ---**
Hmm? Hey, go get that bag from the truck.
**[04:13] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:18] ---**
It's already half-eaten, isn't it?!
**[04:20] ---**
Buzz off! *He* seems
satisfied with it, doesn't he?
**[04:24] ---**
Besides, the police over there
are pretending not to notice.
**[04:28] ---**
I hate to do this,
but we're on a delivery right now.
**[04:31] ---**
For all of the delay
we're incurring talking to you,
**[04:34] ---**
demanding that we make up for it,
it's making us uncomfortable, you know?
**[04:40] ---**
Hey, did you get everything from
the Jack & Rockets Burger Plant?
**[04:45] ---**
Don't "Hey" me. Did you lean back
and get in Ms. Chain's way again?
**[04:51] ---**
Hurry! Hurry and give it to me!
**[04:53] ---**
Wah! It's been too long!
**[04:57] ---**
All but the major chains have
pulled out of here since the Great Collapse.
**[05:02] ---**
I had to wait for thirty minutes.
**[05:05] ---**
Huh?
**[05:08] ---**
I guess they must have
discontinued the Jack Funny Faces.
**[05:11] ---**
You mean printing those
ridiculous-looking wrappers?
**[05:14] ---**
I used to collect them. These are all blank.
**[05:18] ---**
Probably because it's takeout now.
**[05:21] ---**
They'd hate having anyone on the outside
seeing non-humans eating their food.
**[05:26] ---**
There are those who'd complain
if it started looking like bait.
**[05:30] ---**
Huh? How do you mean?
**[05:32] ---**
What do I mean? You're really
starting to get tainted by this place.
**[05:38] ---**
Seen from those in the world outside of here,
**[05:40] ---**
the beings from the alterworld look like
a herd of common monsters, right?
**[05:45] ---**
Oh...
**[05:45] ---**
You think they'll be
so readily understanding?
**[05:49] ---**
You might be right.
**[05:51] ---**
Of course I am!
**[05:53] ---**
Did you go to a humanitarian
seminar, or something?
**[05:58] ---**
I went to a hamburger joint.
**[06:01] ---**
They *do* hold a seminar here.
**[06:05] ---**
Want to go sometime?
**[06:07] ---**
Love and Peace!
**[06:13] ---**
Even now, twenty centuries
after the death of Christ,
**[06:16] ---**
the world is a long way from peace.
**[06:20] ---**
Look how it is, even among just humans.
**[06:23] ---**
I mean, there are good people, both in
the alterworld and the human world.
**[06:28] ---**
But we're only talking individuals, right?
**[06:34] ---**
It's not as though we understand each other.
**[06:37] ---**
Not a chance.
**[06:42] ---**
Huh?
**[06:43] ---**
Hey. Did everything turn out okay before?
**[06:46] ---**
Oh, hello, person who
didn't give me his burger.
**[06:49] ---**
What, *that's* the way you
remember me? That's irritating.
**[06:53] ---**
You're always here, huh?
Do you live nearby?
**[06:56] ---**
No, I'm over on Dessau Leak Street.
**[06:59] ---**
You're serious? That's far away!
**[07:02] ---**
Are you waiting for something?
**[07:04] ---**
They're here! I've been waiting for this!
**[07:07] ---**
I've been waiting for the burger people!
**[07:09] ---**
Here, four Jack Cheese Rocket Burgers.
**[07:13] ---**
That comes to 64 zeros.
**[07:15] ---**
Huh? How come?! That's quadruple!
**[07:18] ---**
Supply and demand.
**[07:20] ---**
Hey, they're taking you for a ride!
That price is unheard-of--
**[07:23] ---**
Hey! Why are you
wolfing them down so fast?!
**[07:27] ---**
Answer: Because they're super-good!
**[07:30] ---**
And you're munching all four of them evenly!
**[07:32] ---**
Answer: To prevent them
from being snatched away!
**[07:36] ---**
Thanks for your business!
**[07:38] ---**
Can't help it if he's already eating them!
**[07:42] ---**
Look, for the money you just paid,
you could have eaten 16 burgers!
**[07:46] ---**
Huh?! Really?!
**[07:48] ---**
Hey, I know that much.
**[07:53] ---**
But you know,
there aren't many humas around
**[07:57] ---**
who would go into 42nd Street
and buy burgers for me using US dollars.
**[08:03] ---**
It may be right in front of my eyes,
**[08:05] ---**
but the world beyond that tent
is even farther away than the moon.
**[08:12] ---**
All right. From now on, I'll go
and buy Jack & Rockets for you.
**[08:17] ---**
Really?! I'm so glad!
How much extra do I have to pay?
**[08:23] ---**
Now cut that out.
**[08:25] ---**
That's not why.
**[08:27] ---**
I'm just doing it because
I have a lot of problems with this.
**[08:32] ---**
You really are a nice guy,
person who didn't give me his burger.
**[08:37] ---**
Stop calling me that. It's really aggravating.
**[08:43] ---**
I'm Leonardo Watch. Nice to meet you.
**[08:46] ---**
Amagranoff Luozontam Ouv Lee Nej.
**[08:51] ---**
Ama...?
**[08:52] ---**
You can call me Nej,
Leonardo who didn't give me his burger.
**[08:56] ---**
Huh?
**[09:38] ---**
Whoa! Whoa! What is that?!
**[09:43] ---**
I ate inside the restaurant.
**[09:45] ---**
This is a Jack Funny Face.
**[09:47] ---**
Awesome! Just like in the comics!
**[09:50] ---**
Ron Jomita, Jr.!
**[09:53] ---**
Who's that?
**[09:53] ---**
The penciler!
**[09:56] ---**
What's that?
**[09:58] ---**
You're really taken with it.
**[10:01] ---**
If you were in grade school,
your mom would be angry with you.
**[10:06] ---**
My mom, huh...?
**[10:08] ---**
Leo, do you have a mom?
**[10:11] ---**
Hmm? Yes, I do.
**[10:13] ---**
You know what?
**[10:15] ---**
have any memories...
**[10:18] ---**
of my mom.
**[10:21] ---**
Did she leave...
when you were little, or something?
**[10:26] ---**
More like, I know that
there is a person called my mom...
**[10:32] ---**
but both me and her don't
remember each other, you see.
**[10:37] ---**
Huh... Still, Nej, you just don't
remember when you were little,
**[10:42] ---**
and I'm sure your mom must have been...
**[10:45] ---**
You'd think so, right?
**[10:49] ---**
But then,
**[10:51] ---**
this mom lady doesn't
even remember giving birth to me.
**[11:00] ---**
Damn it! Now what do we do?!
What the hell do we do?!
**[11:04] ---**
Yes, what do we do?
**[11:06] ---**
Those gun barrels against our temples...
**[11:11] ---**
Those weren't fun, huh?
**[11:18] ---**
Not again...
**[11:22] ---**
What?! The mask is a bit much, isn't it?
**[11:25] ---**
No, incontinence inside the cab is a bit much.
**[11:28] ---**
I can't take the smell.
**[11:30] ---**
Take that off! Hey!
**[11:36] ---**
Damn! That's twice this month!
**[11:41] ---**
You again?!
**[11:44] ---**
This isn't the time or place, is it?
**[11:44] ---**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[11:47] ---**
First they run over him, then they beat him?
**[11:49] ---**
Somebody stop him. He's gonna kill him.
**[11:52] ---**
The little mushroom did
apologize. Let's just go. Huh?
**[11:56] ---**
Was the little mushroom
always that color? Is that blood?
**[12:00] ---**
Then again, do those things even feel pain?
**[12:04] ---**
Part of the blame lies with those
mushrooms for not taking a hint.
**[12:07] ---**
This wouldn't have happened if he'd stayed
away from 42nd Street, for God's sake.
**[12:11] ---**
Sir, this isn't right, is it? Hey, sir!
**[12:20] ---**
What is this? What is this?! What is this?!
**[12:26] ---**
No, no, no, no!
**[12:40] ---**
You don't remember?
**[12:42] ---**
If he had been human,
you'd easily be in the slammer now.
**[12:47] ---**
Well, what's past is past.
Let's go. We have to raise some money.
**[12:53] ---**
What's the matter?
**[12:54] ---**
Why are you in such a hurry?
**[12:55] ---**
Is this about our losses to Mr. Gallardo?
**[12:58] ---**
We can wait on that
until he asks for it, you know.
**[13:01] ---**
Huh?
**[13:03] ---**
Mass fainting?
**[13:05] ---**
Yes.
**[13:06] ---**
It doesn't strike me as
something to be up in arms over.
**[13:09] ---**
The 42nd Street quarter?
Those people never were very tolerant.
**[13:14] ---**
As long as there wasn't too much harm done,
**[13:16] ---**
we *could* always dismiss it as
there being an actual sandman.
**[13:20] ---**
The thing is,
**[13:22] ---**
it was simultaneously
accompanied by mass amnesia.
**[13:26] ---**
Hmm...
**[13:27] ---**
None of the affected persons remember
a single thing, going back 13 hours.
**[13:33] ---**
We don't have any idea what happened
at the center of the disturbance.
**[13:38] ---**
I take it back; this is pretty serious.
**[13:41] ---**
If we assume that this
was carried out intentionally,
**[13:44] ---**
they could get away with any serious crime
unobserved, as though it never happened.
**[13:48] ---**
Hmm?
**[13:50] ---**
What's the matter, young man?
**[13:56] ---**
Nej... Nej... Did you cause this?
**[14:10] ---**
I guess I should have taken
a better look at his aura.
**[14:17] ---**
I'm over on Dessau Leak Street.
**[14:26] ---**
Huh? Leo?
**[14:30] ---**
What's wrong? You're dripping with sweat.
**[14:32] ---**
There you are! Where did you go?!
**[14:35] ---**
I was asleep.
**[14:39] ---**
I was worried that maybe
you'd forgotten about me.
**[14:43] ---**
No, that wouldn't happen.
**[14:45] ---**
Leo, how big a fool do you think I am?
**[14:49] ---**
Forget that, look at this!
**[14:51] ---**
Jack!
**[14:53] ---**
I don't know what kind of paper this is,
**[14:55] ---**
but the penciler was
Ron Jomita Jr., so this is official!
**[15:00] ---**
Isn't that amazing? I had it in my pocket!
**[15:18] ---**
Hey, man, are you sure we can
pay back what we owe by doing this?
**[15:23] ---**
Please don't make me keep explaining it.
**[15:25] ---**
Once we have the spores that come out
of this mushroom, we can do anything.
**[15:30] ---**
I... I'm the only one who saw it.
**[15:34] ---**
Everyone who was there
dropped like flies, in a heartbeat.
**[15:38] ---**
Thinking back on it, it could have
been a wallet-snatching spree!
**[15:43] ---**
I wouldn't suppose you'd get it.
**[15:46] ---**
But if nothing else, I'll put a
convinced look on your face--
**[15:51] ---**
That no matter what we do,
no one will ever find out!
**[15:55] ---**
I think the spores these guys emit
come from stress or something.
**[16:00] ---**
A trait that protects them from
a reality that becomes unbearable!
**[16:04] ---**
Being able to reset yourself and
those around you while you escape
**[16:07] ---**
would come in super-handy, right?
**[16:09] ---**
I hate to do this, but we're
going to make use of it, too!
**[16:15] ---**
He's starting to turn red!
**[16:16] ---**
This is it! Once he turns
fiery red, he goes kaboom!
**[16:22] ---**
Stop!
**[16:24] ---**
H-Hey, he woke up!
**[16:26] ---**
It's all right. He can't do anything.
**[16:29] ---**
Besides, once the spores come out,
**[16:31] ---**
everything he's seeing now
will be wiped clean away.
**[16:36] ---**
Is that right? Is that true, Leo?
**[16:40] ---**
I don't know, either.
But... Remember your mom!
**[16:45] ---**
You know for sure that your
memories of her are gone, right?!
**[16:53] ---**
That's terrific!
**[16:55] ---**
I thought I might have to
kill you to keep you quiet.
**[17:00] ---**
The whole issue of recyclability
could present a problem, right?
**[17:05] ---**
Huh? Eh? Why is the color starting to fade?
**[17:09] ---**
Hey! Whoa! Hold on!
**[17:13] ---**
Damn it, we have to start over?!
**[17:17] ---**
Damn it... Damn it...!
**[17:20] ---**
Leo!
**[17:23] ---**
I can hold it in!
**[17:27] ---**
I don't want to forget you!
**[17:31] ---**
So... So let's eat burgers
again sometime, okay?
**[17:39] ---**
Nej...
**[17:45] ---**
Don't... Stop it...!
**[17:48] ---**
That's enough already, you two!
**[18:12] ---**
Damn kid. What the hell did you do?!
**[18:16] ---**
You've got some kind of power, huh?
**[18:17] ---**
Stop!
**[18:19] ---**
Leo has nothing to do with this!
**[18:19] ---**
Can't be too careful...
**[18:21] ---**
Shut up!
**[18:40] ---**
Oh, no!
**[18:55] ---**
The next thing I knew, I was in the hospital.
**[18:59] ---**
Apparently, I was in a mass
amnesia incident, affecting thousands.
**[19:04] ---**
Lots of people came,
and told me lots of things,
**[19:10] ---**
but the bummer of it is,
**[19:12] ---**
I can't remember any of the events
that happened these last two weeks.
**[19:22] ---**
You're discharged.
**[19:23] ---**
Yeah.
**[19:28] ---**
Two Jack Cheese Rocket Burgers,
two Jack Chili Rocket Dogs,
**[19:33] ---**
one french fry, one onion ring, a large Peps
and a large Diet Peps, your order is ready.
**[19:39] ---**
Here!
**[19:42] ---**
It seems like it's been so long
since I went to Jack & Rockets.
**[19:48] ---**
Hmm? Why did I order enough for two?
**[20:14] ---**
Huh? That's funny...
**[20:24] ---**
Are cheeseburgers...
supposed to bring me to tears like this?
**[20:43] ---**
A-A-Are you all right?!
**[20:49] ---**
Excuse me, but could you please
give me a bite of that burger?
**[20:53] ---**
You're food grubbing?!
**[20:56] ---**
Wait, have we ever done
this bit before--
**[20:59] ---**
you and me?
**[21:01] ---**
We've never met.
**[21:04] ---**
Pay no attention to that,
please give me a burger!
**[21:09] ---**
Well, whatever.
**[21:11] ---**
My name is Leonardo Watch. And you?
**[21:15] ---**
Amagranoff Luozontam Ouv Lee Nej.
**[21:18] ---**
Call me Nej,
**[21:21] ---**
Leonardo Burger.
**[21:28] ---**
Oh, Leo!
**[21:30] ---**
See? He's the one I'm always talking about--
**[21:33] ---**
my friend.
**[21:47] ---**
You're... the guy on the subway!
**[21:49] ---**
Huh?
**[21:51] ---**
I think we're meeting
for the first time.
**[21:55] ---**
Probably.
**[21:56] ---**
Big brother!
**[22:00] ---**
*My*... big brother!
**[22:07] ---**
Why, hello. Y-Your sister
always takes such good care of me...
**[22:12] ---**
or, perhaps not...
**[22:14] ---**
Huh?!
**[22:15] ---**
Er, I mean... Sorry!
**[22:19] ---**
You must be pretty good friends, huh?
**[22:21] ---**
You should have introduced us sooner, White.
**[22:29] ---**
It's a pleasure.
**[22:34] ---**
Call me Black.
**[22:36] ---**
*Accustomed to the supernatural
disaster-like madness,*
**[22:39] ---**
*I mistake my daily life for peace*
**[22:42] ---**
*As this rambling coaster
jolts me back and forth,*
**[22:46] ---**
*what is it that I mustn't lose sight of?*
**[22:50] ---**
*Swallowed up by the concept
of egalitarian fundamentalism,*
**[22:53] ---**

you love and what you hate*
**[23:01] ---**
*or you're not all that different than a dummy*
**[23:04] ---**
*Ah, crowds of people
walking the streets at night*
**[23:08] ---**
*some seem to be so happy,
some seem to be so lonely*
**[23:12] ---**
*The contrast jumps around the music staff*

**[00:07] ---**
I've heard lots of stories about you,
**[00:09] ---**
so I thought I'd like to meet you.
**[00:12] ---**
But I've just had terrible timing--
**[00:16] ---**
Are you okay?
**[00:17] ---**
Sorry! I'm fine, I'm fine!
**[00:24] ---**
Are you okay?
**[00:28] ---**
So, um, about White...
**[00:32] ---**
Is it okay for me to ask
what kind of illness she has?
**[00:36] ---**
She's been in the hospital for three years...
**[00:39] ---**
Ah, I heard that from her, personally!
**[00:43] ---**
That much I know, but...
**[00:46] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[00:47] ---**
She has a bad heart.
**[00:50] ---**
It's settled down right now, though.
**[00:53] ---**
Oh...
**[00:55] ---**
That was bad! I really shouldn't
have taken her out of there!
**[00:58] ---**
I mean, right? I'm right, aren't I?
She's sick, after all, right?!
**[01:03] ---**
She's a tomboy, as you know,
and strong-willed, and self-centered...
**[01:09] ---**
Must be hard dealing with her, right?
**[01:11] ---**
Nah, I wouldn't say that.
**[01:14] ---**
I've got a little sister, myself,
so I'm pretty used to that.
**[01:17] ---**
Oh, you have a sister?
**[01:20] ---**
Mm-hmm. Her strong-willedness
is pretty similar.
**[01:25] ---**
She teases me by
calling me a "tortoise knight."
**[01:28] ---**
That's totally making fun of me, right?
**[01:32] ---**
What's wrong with that? "Knight" just
proves that she depends on you.
**[01:37] ---**
As far as us, my sister has
always won any fights we got into,
**[01:41] ---**
and as you can see,
I'm such a runt, and a four-eyes,
**[01:45] ---**
and I always got teased at school.
**[01:48] ---**
And each time, White stood up for me.
**[01:51] ---**
It made me feel so pathetic
I could just die, every time,
**[01:55] ---**
but somehow, I survived.
**[01:56] ---**
I get that!
**[01:57] ---**
Pipe down!
**[01:58] ---**
What's your problem?
**[02:00] ---**
Don't work yourself up!
**[02:07] ---**
Er, I mean...
**[02:10] ---**
how can I put this?
**[02:12] ---**
I wouldn't worry too
much about it, you know?
**[02:15] ---**
At work, my superior always
calls me "pipsqueak" or "squinty,"
**[02:20] ---**
but I've decided not to let it bother me!
**[02:31] ---**
Yeah, you're right.
**[02:32] ---**
That's what I'll do. Thanks.
**[02:37] ---**
By all means, do so.
**[02:45] ---**
Eh?!
**[02:46] ---**
What did you do, Leo?!
**[02:48] ---**
I-It's not me!
**[02:50] ---**
Then how did this end up like this?
**[02:56] ---**
That's awesome!
**[02:56] ---**
Stop pulling weird stuff
inside my diner, would you?
**[02:59] ---**
*You're* the one who spilled it, Miss Vivian!
**[03:02] ---**
Yow!! Hot! Hot! Hot!
**[03:03] ---**
Leo! Are you all right?!
**[03:05] ---**
Sorry.
**[03:07] ---**
PSI (noun)
**[03:07] ---**
It runs in the family, but I'm not at all good at it.
**[03:08] ---**
Psychic abilities,
or a person who possesses them.
**[03:11] ---**
Supernatural powers that cannot
be rationally explained by science.
**[03:14] ---**
I knew that people such as him existed,
**[03:17] ---**
but this was a lot closer than I expected.
**[03:24] ---**
I guess if he says so,
**[03:26] ---**
it must have been someone else.
**[03:32] ---**
Time to meet your maker, Chief!
**[03:43] ---**
Hey. Care for a glass, Leonardo?
**[03:47] ---**
No...
**[03:48] ---**
*Upon opening the door,
I found a twisted noontime evening*
**[03:52] ---**
*How did I get home yesterday?
My body's the only thing I'm sure of*
**[03:57] ---**
*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[04:01] ---**
*among the unknown sights
that have become so familiar*
**[04:15] ---**
*After I figured all was lost,
I've been getting by somehow,*
**[04:19] ---**
*somewhat embarrassed to
be tough enough to still be alive*
**[04:24] ---**
*I know what I have to do, even if I forget*
**[04:28] ---**
*Otherwise, things become so agonizing*
**[04:33] ---**
*I look up to see someone with big black eyes*
**[04:38] ---**
*It's because I saw you
that this light came to be*
**[04:42] ---**
*Surrounded by a world
painted in colors of my choosing,*
**[04:47] ---**
*where do I find meaning in
the scars I could not choose?*
**[04:51] ---**
*In the heart of a world
where only I am the hero,*
**[04:56] ---**
*I'm onstage, appearing
in every scene until the end*
**[05:00] ---**
*What do I do? I can't
even pretend to be empty*
**[05:05] ---**
*Hello, hi there, here I am*
**[05:10] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[05:18] ---**
The next day
**[05:21] ---**
Hi, young man.
**[05:25] ---**
Hmm? What's wrong?
**[05:28] ---**
Oh, just that every day, when I
open that door, Mr. Zapp goes wild.
**[05:33] ---**
Maybe it's just a bit anticlimactic today.
**[05:35] ---**
You're right, we haven't
seen him today, have we?
**[05:38] ---**
My vote is that his spirit
is broken, and he gave up.
**[05:41] ---**
I thought it was impressive how he didn't get
discouraged after that many defeats in a row.
**[05:49] ---**
Ah, speak of the devil.
**[05:52] ---**
Yes, Mr. Zapp?
**[05:54] ---**
Hey...!
**[05:56] ---**
Chief! Are you there, Chief?!
**[06:01] ---**
I'm about to get killed, here!
**[06:04] ---**
Save me, Chief!
**[06:14] ---**
Hurry, Leonardo!
**[06:16] ---**
Zapp is in trouble!
**[06:17] ---**
Ugh...
**[06:22] ---**
You think your knight will come?
**[06:25] ---**
You dumbass, it's a lead pipe cinch.
**[06:29] ---**
All right, you entertainment-starved scum!
The badassest guest has been invited!
**[06:34] ---**
Take a good long hit off all of his charisma!
**[06:42] ---**
Oh, Mr. Klaus!
**[06:48] ---**
This is who I am. You have my friend.
**[06:48] ---**
A business card? It's a secret society.
**[06:53] ---**
Pow
**[06:53] ---**
Crack
**[06:53] ---**
Bam
**[06:54] ---**
Waaah!
**[06:56] ---**
This way, please.
**[06:57] ---**
Thank you.
**[06:58] ---**
Face fault!
**[07:17] ---**
Where are we?
**[07:18] ---**
An underground battle arena.
**[07:20] ---**
Generally speaking, they place bets
and then beat each other.
**[07:23] ---**
I see. Most interesting.
**[07:27] ---**
Where could Zapp be?
**[07:30] ---**
You swear this will clear my debt, right?
**[07:36] ---**
That depends on tonight's
take and your prudence.
**[07:41] ---**
Cut your best rug tonight,
**[07:44] ---**
as though your life depended on it.
**[07:49] ---**
Ladies and gentlemen!
**[07:55] ---**
This is Libra!
**[07:58] ---**
Klaus V Reinherz!
**[08:02] ---**
Welcome, our special guest!
Welcome to our bareknuckle brawl!
**[08:07] ---**
This is e-den!
**[08:11] ---**
Forgive me for disturbing you
while you're working,
**[08:13] ---**
but I'm just looking for a friend of mine.
**[08:15] ---**
You bet, you bet. There are two rules!
**[08:18] ---**
Number one! "No use of weapons!"
**[08:21] ---**
Number two! "Fight one-on-one!"
**[08:24] ---**
That's how it is. If you do well,
you'll get to see Zapp.
**[08:29] ---**
Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
**[08:32] ---**
What's the point of getting rough now?
**[08:34] ---**
You don't even know where he is.
**[08:36] ---**
And he'll have a bullet burrowing
through his brain long before you *do*.
**[08:42] ---**
Now if you'll forgive us, we have to
examine who we're dealing with.
**[08:45] ---**
The rules are few, but you must obey them.
**[08:50] ---**
You mean Libra actually exists?
**[08:52] ---**
I've never seen one before.
**[08:55] ---**
Seems like I've seen that huma before.
**[08:57] ---**
Is he strong?
**[08:58] ---**
He's got a damn scary face, doesn't he?
**[09:00] ---**
That look in his eye is serious trouble!
**[09:03] ---**
Nah, that's normal.
**[09:04] ---**
Normal, all right.
**[09:05] ---**
Let's get started!
**[09:07] ---**
Gregor Maximus!
**[09:11] ---**
Okay, okay, place your bets, place your bets!
**[09:13] ---**
Hey! You look confused, huh?
I can't blame you.
**[09:18] ---**
But try to focus. Your life's at stake.
**[09:21] ---**
I can tell from just a glance.
You're quite the "player," aren't you?
**[09:26] ---**
Fist against fist.
**[09:27] ---**
There are still some areas where
only a fight between two humas will do.
**[09:32] ---**
Why don't we show that
to these creepshow-dwellers?
**[09:39] ---**
As you wish.
**[09:42] ---**
The mold this is playing into
seems awfully familiar...
**[09:45] ---**
Mr. Zapp!
**[09:48] ---**
Ah! 20 zeros on Mister Klaus!
**[09:53] ---**
Ready!
**[09:54] ---**
Fight!
**[10:11] ---**
Don't screw around with these
huma-on-huma fights! Is this playtime?
**[10:16] ---**
You guys can all get crushed by us,
you small-timer race!
**[10:21] ---**
Jugglernose, you bastard.
This is not gonna be pretty.
**[10:25] ---**
Re-issue the bets immediately!
**[10:28] ---**
Get a doctor and resuscitation
team ready! Right now!
**[10:31] ---**
What are you so rattled about?
It'll be fine, Zapp.
**[10:36] ---**
He'll be sure to pull his punches.
He's not gonna kill him.
**[10:40] ---**
I don't suppose he would.
Looking at him, the guy's a pro, after all.
**[10:45] ---**
But then, the chief isn't.
**[10:56] ---**
He's a rank amateur.
**[11:06] ---**
Your boss is not bad!
**[11:09] ---**
Aww... All of his joints are
dislocated in funny directions.
**[11:15] ---**
I thought that by starting him
on a huma, he'd power up by turns.
**[11:19] ---**
As precisely as he went
after only the joints in his shell,
**[11:22] ---**
and given how rational he is,
his punches sure do land solidly!
**[11:25] ---**
I like this guy!
**[11:27] ---**
Look at all the spectators!
They're pissing themselves with joy!
**[11:33] ---**
Whew! That was exciting!
And *he* was our poster boy, too!
**[11:39] ---**
I'm terribly sorry I had to do that.
**[11:41] ---**
In any case, please show me
where Zapp is now.
**[11:46] ---**
Hey, man, you gotta be kidding!
**[11:48] ---**
The main event is just getting started!
**[11:50] ---**
Next match! Hurry and
send out the next challenger!
**[11:54] ---**
Not so fast, sir. Your fists have
captivated the hearts of all the scum here.
**[12:00] ---**
No, this isn't getting us anywhere.
**[12:03] ---**
It's okay. You just have to fight.
**[12:06] ---**
At least until they've had their fill.
**[12:09] ---**
But...
**[12:09] ---**
Klaus! Klaus!
**[12:11] ---**
Klaus! Klaus!
**[12:15] ---**
Sorry, young man, but only
authorized personnel beyond this point.
**[12:19] ---**
For that matter,
you're too young to even be here.
**[12:25] ---**
Are you, by any chance,
here with Mister Klaus?
**[12:29] ---**
Yes. Um...
**[12:31] ---**
Which means that you know Zapp.
**[12:34] ---**
I knew it! He's got his
hand in this, doesn't he?!
**[12:37] ---**
No! Er... uh, oh, right...
**[12:41] ---**
Aw, I blew it. Sorry, sorry.
**[12:45] ---**
Well, it's a long story,
but nothing you need to worry about.
**[12:49] ---**
Mister Klaus is plenty tough,
and we have a skilled doctor here, too.
**[12:55] ---**
You don't say.
**[12:56] ---**
Oh, you're taking this well, huh?
**[13:02] ---**
Why would everyone come
all the way here just to see some blood?
**[13:06] ---**
Trouble crops up somewhere
every day in Hellsalem's Lot,
**[13:10] ---**
without having to stage this, too.
**[13:15] ---**
You're right about that.
**[13:17] ---**
Step one foot outside, and with one
pull of a trigger, you can inflict a fatal injury;
**[13:21] ---**
with one push of a button, you can
blow up a whole lot of people at once.
**[13:26] ---**
The world truly is a cavalcade
of efficiency in violence.
**[13:30] ---**
Still...
**[13:32] ---**
whether hacking each other with stone axes,
cutting each other with swords,
**[13:35] ---**
shooting each other with guns,
cursing each other with magic,
**[13:39] ---**
or taking aim at each other with missiles,
**[13:42] ---**
for some reason, there's a craving that
grips us, from which we can't evolve away.
**[13:46] ---**
Fighting barehanded, one-on-one.
**[13:49] ---**
It transcends species; we're *all* giant idiots,
who embrace these two rules.
**[13:55] ---**
Yeah,
**[13:57] ---**
it's not that they want to see blood;
**[13:59] ---**
since before recorded history, men have
been afflicted with an incurable disease.
**[14:06] ---**
The "Mightiest Bareknuckle Brawler" disorder.
**[14:19] ---**
A No-Holds-Barred Eden
**[14:21] ---**
Is this to your liking, sir?
**[14:24] ---**
Enough! I've never seen
such a gorgeous beast!
**[14:36] ---**
Wait, isn't he...
**[14:38] ---**
He is, all right!
**[14:42] ---**
The chief is getting into the swing of it!
**[14:46] ---**
We have a winner!
**[14:48] ---**
He beat the reigning champ in one shot!
**[14:51] ---**
This is unheard-of!
**[14:53] ---**
Awesome! Awesome! I may have
lost my shirt, but I am glad I was here!
**[15:00] ---**
There were some unexpected hiccups,
**[15:02] ---**
but this has been a
pretty good showing, hasn't it?
**[15:05] ---**
Well then, I'll be going. Huh?!
**[15:14] ---**
O-Owner!
**[15:17] ---**
I'm glad you're here, warrior.
**[15:21] ---**
First, let me offer my praise and respect
for the way you've fought tonight.
**[15:25] ---**
You had me quivering.
**[15:27] ---**
I realized that always using only
modest ingredients leaves one unsatisfied.
**[15:33] ---**
This has been a long time coming.
**[15:36] ---**
Tonight, I want to enjoy my fill.
**[15:39] ---**
How about you let me, too,
have a bite of this ultimate dinner?!
**[15:47] ---**
No, I...
**[15:48] ---**
Don't "No, I..." us! Accept! Accept it!
**[15:52] ---**
If the owner is challenging you,
**[15:54] ---**
it means that ownership
of this arena is at stake!
**[16:05] ---**
I-It's started! It's started!
**[16:16] ---**
He keeps a vigilant defense with his left,
**[16:18] ---**
while his right is ever poised to
strike from the shortest distance.
**[16:21] ---**
This is not the way
an empty-handed man fights.
**[16:25] ---**
It's the way of a hoplite,
armed with shield and spear!
**[16:29] ---**
In bare-handed fighting, there's no
restriction on kicks, holds, or throws.
**[16:34] ---**
How can he even be this illogical?
**[16:36] ---**
It's so simple, and yet with
nothing else left up his sleeve,
**[16:39] ---**
his discipline is shatterproof.
**[16:42] ---**
Very nice. It makes me doubt my own sanity.
**[16:46] ---**
I want to lay into you
head-on that much more!
**[16:53] ---**
Oh...
**[16:54] ---**
even Ozmaldo the Mauler,
former undefeated champion of e-den,
**[16:59] ---**
just might possibly be up a creek here...
**[17:02] ---**
Then, he's going to win
once again? That's no fun.
**[17:06] ---**
No, that won't happen.
**[17:08] ---**
The chief is too ham-handed.
**[17:10] ---**
He can't fine-tune one punch
over another when he's focusing.
**[17:15] ---**
Still, he's really good at restricting himself,
once he sets his rules.
**[17:22] ---**
The creek I was referring to him being up...
**[17:26] ---**
...is when he switches forms.
**[17:28] ---**
His left?
**[17:29] ---**
How can that be?!
Is *that* the side he favors?!
**[17:43] ---**
I-I felt that one!
**[17:53] ---**
Huh? I'm reading a vibe here...
**[17:57] ---**
Aww, let me just say right now,
I was only using his corpse.
**[18:03] ---**
Also, I wasn't the one who killed him.
**[18:10] ---**
Mr. Klaus! That's a--
**[18:14] ---**
Blood Breed
**[18:16] ---**
I had to do something like this,
**[18:18] ---**
or I wouldn't be able
to have any fun with you.
**[18:24] ---**
It's been nice playing with you,
**[18:27] ---**
Klaus.
**[18:37] ---**
Wow, you saved me, Chief!
**[18:40] ---**
Those bad guys saw the way
you fought, got scared, and ran off!
**[18:45] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[18:48] ---**
I'm just glad you're safe, Zapp.
**[18:48] ---**
What a simp!
**[18:50] ---**
What a super-simp!
**[18:52] ---**
Eh?!
**[18:53] ---**
What? You want some of this?
**[18:56] ---**
I am *so* telling on you!
You can't keep me from talking!
**[19:00] ---**
It's not like that, Leo.
**[19:02] ---**
Things might have gotten a little tight there,
**[19:04] ---**
but the truth is, there's a reason
why this all had to happen.
**[19:08] ---**
Here it comes.
**[19:09] ---**
Just listen!
**[19:10] ---**
Look, the chief is roughed up
head-to-toe right now.
**[19:13] ---**
That whole string of
fights against heavyweights,
**[19:15] ---**
plus the Blood Breed,
have him all worn out.
**[19:18] ---**
And whose fault do you suppose *that* is?
**[19:21] ---**
The point is...
**[19:24] ---**
...if I'm gonna take him, it's now or never!
**[19:27] ---**
You couldn't be any worse!
**[19:28] ---**
I'm going to beat you this time, Chief!
**[19:35] ---**
Okay, stob--!
**[19:51] ---**
I hate to put you out.
**[19:52] ---**
It's on my way, it's on my way.
**[19:56] ---**
Halloween's almost here, huh?
**[19:58] ---**
Seems kind of funny, doesn't it?
**[20:00] ---**
It's like it's been Halloween
every day for the last three years.
**[20:05] ---**
The people here do love to party, and all.
**[20:09] ---**
Back where I'm from,
we don't get any candy,
**[20:12] ---**
but people still believe
that on Halloween night,
**[20:15] ---**
this world and the next
world become joined,
**[20:18] ---**
the dead come back, and evil spirits
and sprites show themselves.
**[20:21] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[20:25] ---**
Sounds romantic.
**[20:27] ---**
It is an age-old land, after all.
**[20:29] ---**
Who cares? I like it.
**[20:31] ---**
Come to think of it,
the first time I met White,
**[20:34] ---**
she called herself a "ghost."
**[20:37] ---**
Do spiritual jokes like that
run in your family, too?
**[20:44] ---**
No...
**[20:50] ---**
Well, I'll see you around.
**[20:52] ---**
Mm-hmm. I hate to
stick you on hospital detail.
**[20:56] ---**
It's okay, it's okay.
You have an early morning, right?
**[20:59] ---**
Sorry. If you don't look in on her
once per day, she gets cranky.
**[21:05] ---**
She does say she's
always bored, doesn't she?
**[21:08] ---**
Okay!
**[21:08] ---**
Leonardo!
**[21:11] ---**
Sometimes my sister says strange things,
but still, she's a normal, great girl.
**[21:18] ---**
Be her friend, okay?
**[21:20] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[21:23] ---**
I'm counting on you, "Tortoise Knight."
**[21:26] ---**
Huh? Hey! Now cut that out!
**[21:29] ---**
See you!
**[21:43] ---**
Tie, go again!
**[21:45] ---**
First is rock! Rock! Paper! Scissors!
**[21:48] ---**
Hmm?
**[21:50] ---**
My, what a welcome visitor. What's up?
**[21:54] ---**
Nothing much. Hey, pipe down!
Take a walk!
**[21:58] ---**
I've got next, obviously!
**[22:01] ---**
Huh?!
**[22:01] ---**
Boo! Boo!
**[22:03] ---**
Finally starting, huh?
**[22:05] ---**
Nope. Not so, King of Depravity.
**[22:09] ---**
Finally *ending*...
**[22:14] ---**
...my Great Collapse.
**[22:24] ---**
She's drooling.
**[22:36] ---**
*Accustomed to the supernatural
disaster-like madness,*
**[22:39] ---**
*I mistake my daily life for peace*
**[22:42] ---**
*As this rambling coaster
jolts me back and forth,*
**[22:46] ---**
*what is it that I mustn't lose sight of?*
**[22:50] ---**
*Swallowed up by the concept
of egalitarian fundamentalism,*
**[22:54] ---**
*feels like even my soul is so much et cetera*
**[22:57] ---**
*Have to clearly state what
you love and what you hate*
**[23:01] ---**
*or you're not all that different than a dummy*
**[23:04] ---**
*Ah, crowds of people
walking the streets at night*
**[23:08] ---**
*some seem to be so happy,
some seem to be so lonely*
**[23:12] ---**
*The contrast jumps around the music staff*
**[23:17] ---**
*creating the song and rhythm*
**[23:19] ---**
*Marmalade and sugar song,
peanuts and bitter step*
**[23:23] ---**
*So sweet and then so acrid,
it makes my head spin*
**[23:26] ---**
*Let's head south-southwest
and keep this party going*
**[23:30] ---**
*to make it a night
that will astonish the world*
**[23:34] ---**
*I feel fantastic, a chain of reflections*
**[23:41] ---**
*Marmalade and sugar song,
peanuts and bitter step*
**[23:44] ---**
*So sweet and then so acrid,
it makes my head spin*
**[23:48] ---**
*Let's head south-southwest
and keep this party going*
**[23:52] ---**
*to make it a night
that will astonish the world*
**[23:56] ---**
*I feel fantastic,
the chain of reflections goes on*
**[24:00] ---**
*From one good time,
to a problem, to another good time*
**[24:06] ---**
Hey, come on in!
**[24:08] ---**
Looks like you're getting
pretty used to this place, aren't you?
**[24:11] ---**
Although, with this much
abnormality going on every day,
**[24:14] ---**
you can't help but get used to it, huh?
Still, watch yourself.
**[24:17] ---**
Waiting until you're dead to realize
you're living in a fool's warped paradise
**[24:21] ---**
isn't as funny as it sounds.
**[24:23] ---**
Next time on Blood Blockade Battlefront:
**[24:25] ---**
"Z's Longest Day (Part 1)."
**[24:25] ---**
"Z's Longest Day (Part 1)"
**[24:28] ---**
In case of emergency, please feel free
to stop by Dianne's Diner!
**[24:32] ---**
I'll be here anytime for a heart-to-heart.

**[00:15] ---**
William,
**[00:17] ---**
take care of Mary.
**[00:27] ---**
Dad...!
**[00:29] ---**
Mom...!
**[00:31] ---**
No!
**[00:41] ---**
Hellsalem's Lot
**[00:43] ---**
formerly New York.
**[00:46] ---**
Three years ago, a major disaster
of unknown origin took place here,
**[00:51] ---**
known as the Great Collapse of New York.
**[00:56] ---**
The Great Collapse was not
just a shocking event for this world,
**[00:59] ---**
but for the other world, as well.
**[01:02] ---**
People known as "casters"
were gathered from both worlds,
**[01:06] ---**
and a barrier was raised to halt the Collapse.
**[01:11] ---**
Thanks to their actions,
the collapse was miraculously halted,
**[01:15] ---**
but many mysteries still remain.
**[01:18] ---**
Almost nobody knows exactly
what happened in the center of the hole.
**[01:24] ---**
But research into the Collapse
continues to this day,
**[01:28] ---**
and most of the casters
from that time are involved in it.
**[01:32] ---**
Wow,
**[01:34] ---**
you sure do know your stuff.
**[01:36] ---**
My mama and papa are casters!
**[01:42] ---**
That's something to be proud of.
**[01:44] ---**
Okay, next we're going to
**[01:44] ---**
Did you know that?
**[01:46] ---**
I want to see the bottom of it!
**[01:46] ---**
learn a little about the alterworld.
**[01:48] ---**
This is cool!
**[01:50] ---**
You, too, right?
**[01:51] ---**
That's the kind of family we are. But still,
**[01:55] ---**
to be honest, I don't want to
have much to do with it anymore.
**[02:00] ---**
I never want to go through that again.
**[02:08] ---**
*Upon opening the door,
I found a twisted noontime evening*
**[02:12] ---**
*How did I get home yesterday?
My body's the only thing I'm sure of*
**[02:17] ---**
*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[02:21] ---**
*among the unknown sights
that have become so familiar*
**[02:35] ---**
*After I figured all was lost,
I've been getting by somehow,*
**[02:39] ---**
*somewhat embarrassed to
be tough enough to still be alive*
**[02:44] ---**
*I know what I have to do, even if I forget*
**[02:48] ---**
*Otherwise, things become so agonizing*
**[02:53] ---**
*I look up to see someone with big black eyes*
**[02:57] ---**
*It's because I saw you
that this light came to be*
**[03:02] ---**
*Surrounded by a world
painted in colors of my choosing,*
**[03:07] ---**
*where do I find meaning in
the scars I could not choose?*
**[03:11] ---**
*In the heart of a world
where only I am the hero,*
**[03:16] ---**
*I'm onstage, appearing
in every scene until the end*
**[03:20] ---**
*What do I do? I can't
even pretend to be empty*
**[03:25] ---**
*Hello, hi there, here I am*
**[03:30] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[03:39] ---**
I drank too much.
**[03:41] ---**
Hey, Zapp, get up, already.
**[03:44] ---**
I sure am hungry.
**[03:47] ---**
A Jack Cheese Rocket Burger,
**[03:49] ---**
one french fry,
some onion rings, a large Peps...
**[03:53] ---**
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
**[03:56] ---**
Gah! What's the matter
with that horse?!
**[04:00] ---**
Damn it.
**[04:01] ---**
Hey, buddy,
**[04:03] ---**
give me all your money, would you?
**[04:07] ---**
This is all of it, right?
**[04:08] ---**
Y-Yes!
**[04:10] ---**
Oh yeah! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
**[04:15] ---**
What is the matter
with that casino?!
**[04:18] ---**
Damn it.
**[04:19] ---**
Now, now, let's drink up!
**[04:26] ---**
I drank too much.
**[04:27] ---**
Hey, Zapp, get up, already.
**[04:30] ---**
I sure am hungry, damn it.
**[04:33] ---**
One two-piece chicken,
one order of nuggets, some fries,
**[04:37] ---**
Oh, just a moment.
**[04:37] ---**
and then...
**[04:38] ---**
Angelica! Register!
**[04:40] ---**
Tch! Hey, come off it! What's the big idea,
keeping customers waiting--
**[04:44] ---**
Thank you for waiting!
**[04:46] ---**
Will this complete your order?
**[04:51] ---**
Sir?
**[04:53] ---**
You're smoking...
**[04:54] ---**
Z's Longest Day (Part 1)
**[05:02] ---**
Ah, that sure takes me back.
**[05:04] ---**
Those tentacles sure are coming in clear, huh?
**[05:07] ---**
The high-resolution version
came out not long ago.
**[05:11] ---**
What happened to your stomach?!
**[05:13] ---**
What about it, pube-head?
**[05:15] ---**
Don't "What about it?" me!
That has to be a real problem, right?!
**[05:20] ---**
Huh? Ow-w-w-w-w-w-w!
**[05:23] ---**
You know, I got asked for some
advice by a friend of mine today
**[05:26] ---**
about a strange, oversexed punk
that she had gotten involved with.
**[05:30] ---**
She works at Kentudgy Fried Chicken,
**[05:34] ---**
and every day, he comes in
and pesters her for her number.
**[05:38] ---**
She says he's downright harassing her,
and that she's disgusted.
**[05:40] ---**
Who do you suppose she means?
**[05:43] ---**
What are you, dense?!
But I'll let you off the hook today
**[05:46] ---**
in exchange for Angelica's email address.
**[05:48] ---**
Like I'd ever tell you,
you idiot! You stalker monkey!
**[05:54] ---**
Who are you calling a stalker?!
**[05:55] ---**
Who?!
**[05:58] ---**
What's the matter?
**[06:00] ---**
Steven.
**[06:01] ---**
Oh, I just felt a chill.
**[06:03] ---**
Perfect timing. Go ahead and die from it.
**[06:06] ---**
What was that, she-bitch?!
**[06:09] ---**
Shut up, turd-monkey!
**[06:10] ---**
That's enough! That was an update
from the fang-hunter HQ.
**[06:14] ---**
They've confirmed that the
bloodline gate in India has opened.
**[06:18] ---**
The Blood Breeds are on the move,
and they've come out swinging.
**[06:22] ---**
Their objective is probably...
**[06:24] ---**
this city.
**[06:35] ---**
Target has lost half its body now,
and is still fighting while moving.
**[06:42] ---**
We only have scraps of information,
but it's highly reliable.
**[06:45] ---**
Why only scraps of information?
It's from their HQ, right?
**[06:49] ---**
The Indian Air Force Base at Gwalior
**[06:52] ---**
was put on lockdown three hours ago.
**[06:55] ---**
Apparently, the place is swarming
with ghouls, and out of control.
**[06:59] ---**
Huh. Well, when all of the witnesses
have been turned, what can you do?
**[07:04] ---**
But if it's the whole base, then...
**[07:07] ---**
Yeah, we seem to be dealing
with a fairly high-order being.
**[07:12] ---**
Which means that we forgo trying to kill it,
and move ahead with Klaus sealing it away.
**[07:17] ---**
And who exactly is
going after such a big fish?
**[07:20] ---**
We don't know. It's someone other than us.
**[07:24] ---**
Found them!
**[07:26] ---**
The cafŽ on the roof
of the Parcissus Building,
**[07:28] ---**
"Castle in the Sky."
**[07:33] ---**
Take cover! Take cover!
**[07:44] ---**
Hey, Dr. Steven, hurry it up.
**[07:47] ---**
The horseplay between these two monsters
is knocking the policesuits around.
**[07:58] ---**
Move away from the door,
and cover your ears!
**[08:13] ---**
That was too close for comfort.
Now I'm torqued off.
**[08:16] ---**
Eh?
**[08:18] ---**
And why do I have to
be stuck with *you* again?!
**[08:24] ---**
Now, now, now, now, now, we've sized things
up as long as we can. Let's go, okay, K.K.?
**[08:33] ---**
So, which one's the enemy?
**[08:36] ---**
You said he was missing half his body, right?
**[08:39] ---**
In that case, it's definitely that one.
**[08:41] ---**
Yeah, but, in this city,
**[08:44] ---**
I'm not sure you can judge
someone by appearances, K.K.
**[08:50] ---**
Mirrors!
**[08:50] ---**
Mirrors!
**[08:59] ---**
This one!
**[08:59] ---**
This one!
**[09:06] ---**
Zapp? What's going on?
**[09:09] ---**
This one's the Blood Breed, right?
**[09:11] ---**
Then who's that one?!
**[09:14] ---**
Please! Cut me some slack, Master!
**[09:25] ---**
He shed his attack mechanisms to escape!
**[09:27] ---**
He's regenerating in mid-air! Not good!

**[10:09] ---**
A legendary double-attribute master?
**[10:12] ---**
I'm overwhelmed.
**[10:14] ---**
The real deal among real deals.
**[10:25] ---**
Is that... a Zhen Tai Dan?
**[10:28] ---**
"Indeed it is.
**[10:30] ---**
Your level of comprehension is barely what
is in your literature, you rank youngsters.
**[10:34] ---**
This is the final,
self-enclosed form of the Blood Breeds.
**[10:38] ---**
Burn its image well into your
pitifully undersized brains."
**[10:43] ---**
I-It's not me! I'm just translating!
**[10:53] ---**
It is an honor to meet you,
**[10:56] ---**
"Blood Battle God,"
**[10:57] ---**
and Founder of the
Big Dipper Style Blood Technique,
**[11:00] ---**
Master Raju Jugei Shizuyoshi.
**[11:08] ---**
"Never mind the flattery.
**[11:09] ---**
Being told so by one so unskilled
that they would hesitate one instant
**[11:13] ---**
over which one to attack carries no value."
**[11:17] ---**
I told you, that's not me talking!
**[11:21] ---**
Was this opponent a formidable foe,
even for you, Master Jugei?
**[11:27] ---**
"Well, now... Difficult to say..."
**[11:30] ---**
My word, there's no
pinning this gentleman down.
**[11:34] ---**
It's not uncommon for him to
go missing for decades at a time.
**[11:38] ---**
During those intervals, traces have
been discovered of the slaying
**[11:41] ---**
of some fairly high-order Blood Breeds,
**[11:43] ---**
and it's all said to be
the work of this gentleman.
**[11:46] ---**
Well, he won't tell us the truth about that.
**[11:50] ---**
"Your blood is the one bestowed
with the incarceration technique?"
**[11:54] ---**
Yes, sir. My name is Klaus V Reinherz.
**[11:59] ---**
"You have an interesting countenance,
but are too inexperienced to be a leader.
**[12:03] ---**
Look here.
**[12:05] ---**
This sack of crap who calls me
Master has become a garbage pile
**[12:08] ---**
that doesn't understand the
first letter of the word discipline.
**[12:11] ---**
He's like a heap of swarthy,
rotten, toxic sticky rice.
**[12:15] ---**
If you took raw displeasure,
formed it into a human shape,
**[12:17] ---**
and filled it with snakes and scorpions,
**[12:19] ---**
it still wouldn't be as unpleasant as this one.
**[12:22] ---**
He spends his days in idleness,
**[12:24] ---**
in a self-indulgent mental state
nowhere near moderation, huh?
**[12:30] ---**
It's hopeless to even look at him.
What a wretched state of affairs.
**[12:35] ---**
For all he eats, and the gas he passes,
**[12:38] ---**
he's worse than the dead
corpse of a stepped-on bug."
**[12:42] ---**
Poor guy.
**[12:44] ---**
"That being said,
I'll take this one back with me."
**[12:47] ---**
Huh?! Hey, hold on, you old buzzard!
**[12:50] ---**
I mean, Master!
**[12:57] ---**
Who are you calling a dung beetle?!
**[12:58] ---**
The hell I'm going to train with you!
**[13:00] ---**
No, I'm not grateful, you old goblin!
You flea-bitten rag!
**[13:04] ---**
Ow-w-w-w-w-w-w!
**[13:05] ---**
Now, now, good sir,
**[13:08] ---**
Zapp *is* incorrigible human scum, to be sure,
**[13:11] ---**
but to us, he is an important,
indispensable member of the team.
**[13:15] ---**
Your true opinions
come out uninhibited, huh?!
**[13:17] ---**
They inadvertently slip
right on out, don't they?!
**[13:19] ---**
Please,
**[13:21] ---**
we ask that you reconsider.
**[13:25] ---**
Huh?
**[13:30] ---**
Zapp! Translate!
**[13:33] ---**
Huh?
**[13:34] ---**
He wants me to render
the Zhen Tai Dan non-hostile.
**[13:39] ---**
Call it a test, maybe...
**[13:41] ---**
as a quid pro quo.
**[13:47] ---**
"Right now, he's inside,
undergoing high-speed regenerative healing.
**[13:52] ---**
He's hyper-reflexively
striking out at any external stimulus.
**[13:55] ---**
There isn't a chance of even picking him up.
**[13:58] ---**
There are six eyeball-like organs.
**[14:00] ---**
Shoot them all out simultaneously."
**[14:04] ---**
That's easy for you to say,
but if I'm off by even .1 second...
**[14:09] ---**
"At best he'll cut off both your arms,
**[14:11] ---**
and at worst, all that
will be left are your ankles."
**[14:13] ---**
What are you, an idiot?!
**[14:16] ---**
Huh? What are you doing, you old buzzard?!
**[14:19] ---**
A barrier of blood?
**[14:22] ---**
Master! No matter how you slice it,
this is too much for him!
**[14:26] ---**
Please...
**[14:30] ---**
Let's do this.
**[14:32] ---**
If the master is willing to go this far,
**[14:34] ---**
he must have something of his own in mind.
**[14:39] ---**
Big Dipper Style Blood Technique!
**[14:42] ---**
Blade Ten--
**[14:46] ---**
Holy crap! Worse than I expected!
**[14:51] ---**
The source of that chill
I felt must have been Master.
**[14:55] ---**
The bastard thinks about
nothing but his own training,
**[15:00] ---**
so even if he loses a limb or two,
**[15:03] ---**
he thinks he just can manage
something with his blood techniques.
**[15:06] ---**
For that matter, he actually *can*.
**[15:10] ---**
Th-That death-hermit is way past
the level of what you'd call reclusive.
**[15:15] ---**
Aww, is he gonna force me to
go to that hidden wasteland again?
**[15:20] ---**
I can't bear those
16-course-nightmare days of training...
**[15:25] ---**
ever again!
**[15:27] ---**
No No No No No No No No No No No No
**[15:31] ---**
Take it easy, man. You have to focus, or you
really won't be able to do this, dummy.
**[15:39] ---**
Ah... now even the
Gestaltzerfall effect is kicking in.
**[15:50] ---**
Yes? Ah, Angelica?
**[15:53] ---**
Mm-mm, it's perfectly fine.
What's on your mind? Mm-hmm...
**[15:58] ---**
Eh? What? You feel flushed all over
and don't know what to do?
**[16:03] ---**
You want that silver-haired bronze fellow
to get crazy with you, right now?
**[16:07] ---**
And it's got you feeling all wet and ready?
**[16:11] ---**
Mmm, but he's a little bit busy now.
**[16:15] ---**
No, for real, for real.
**[16:17] ---**
He's either about to go to
the hospital, or the funeral home,
**[16:20] ---**
so I guess you'll just have to
get over it. What a shame.
**[16:23] ---**
Mm-hmm, well, see you later.
**[16:25] ---**
Bye-bye.
**[16:39] ---**
Nicely done.
**[16:43] ---**
That level of concentration
rivals my own, when I'm fast asleep.
**[16:48] ---**
I have no choice but to admit it.
**[16:51] ---**
You are my best pupil.
**[17:01] ---**
Angelica, where are you right now?
**[17:05] ---**
At the tone, the time
will be 2:11 p.m., and 50 seconds.
**[17:13] ---**
What, are you feeling shy?
**[17:13] ---**
At the tone, the time will be 2:12 p.m., exactly.
**[17:16] ---**
It doesn't matter what time it is.
**[17:19] ---**
We're about to leap into a world
**[17:19] ---**
At the tone, the time will be 2:12 p.m.,
**[17:21] ---**
where we aren't captive to time!
**[17:21] ---**
and ten seconds.
**[17:26] ---**
Things are even more hectic
than usual today, huh?
**[17:29] ---**
You stay in your room and behave yourself.
**[17:31] ---**
Okay.
**[17:32] ---**
I *always* behave myself.
**[17:35] ---**
You're such a liar. I hear things.
**[17:41] ---**
What?
**[17:43] ---**
He's a nice guy, isn't he?
**[17:46] ---**
Where did you meet him?
**[17:50] ---**
At the hospital.
There is nowhere else, is there?
**[17:53] ---**
That's not what I'm talking about.
**[17:55] ---**
You know what it is that
I'm asking, don't you, White?
**[18:04] ---**
When I met him here for the first time,
**[18:07] ---**
he said something strange.
**[18:10] ---**
That earlier...
**[18:12] ---**
he had seen me on the subway.
**[18:16] ---**
At the time, I thought he'd just
mistaken me for someone else.
**[18:23] ---**
But...
**[18:25] ---**
could I really *have* met him?
**[18:28] ---**
I just didn't know it...
And then, before I knew it, he...
**[18:35] ---**
and I...
**[18:37] ---**
Black!
**[18:40] ---**
Stop that, Big Brother.
Leo was just mistaken.
**[18:45] ---**
It happens a lot.
**[18:50] ---**
Yeah, you're right. Okay, then.
**[18:57] ---**
Also, about that courtyard...
**[19:00] ---**
You haven't been back again, have you?
**[19:04] ---**
White?
**[19:06] ---**
Who cares if I have?!
**[19:07] ---**
I like going there! I feel relaxed there!
**[19:12] ---**
That doesn't mean you can make
yourself out to be a ghost, you know.
**[19:18] ---**
It's a bad joke.
**[19:22] ---**
There's nothing wrong
with me anymore, physically.
**[19:26] ---**
All the more reason, then.
**[19:29] ---**
It's like Mom and Dad said, right? We are...
**[19:33] ---**
..."two-in-one"...
**[19:35] ---**
...right?
**[19:38] ---**
I know.
**[19:39] ---**
Okay, then.
**[19:44] ---**
Come on! Don't sulk up there,
come down and translate!
**[19:47] ---**
It all worked out okay, didn't it?
**[19:49] ---**
If anything, you should be grateful to Chain.
**[19:53] ---**
It's no use. I can't see any sign of anything.
**[19:56] ---**
Eh?
**[19:58] ---**
If we can't find his true name,
**[20:00] ---**
there's no way we can
pull off an Elder-class seal.
**[20:03] ---**
Yes, I know that.
**[20:06] ---**
Um, I'm terribly sorry,
**[20:09] ---**
but we haven't the *slightest
*idea what you're saying.
**[20:13] ---**
Could it be because his heart isn't here?
**[20:16] ---**
You mean the rest of his missing body,
still playing to rave reviews?
**[20:22] ---**
Hey, hold on a second.
**[20:24] ---**
Are you saying that just
a torn-off piece of his body
**[20:27] ---**
has been attacking us
head-on this whole time?
**[20:29] ---**
Oh, man...
**[20:31] ---**
Still, where is the rest of him now?
**[20:38] ---**
Huh?!
**[20:40] ---**
Junior pupil?!
**[20:42] ---**
What do you mean, bringing him here?!
**[20:48] ---**
Hey, I heard a plane was on its way in!
**[20:51] ---**
Are they crazy? Let's go watch!
**[20:54] ---**
I want to see the tentacles!
**[20:57] ---**
Sure is bustling, huh? What is it today?
**[21:00] ---**
Don't ask me.
**[21:02] ---**
Everyone out there is just
a bunch of foolish partygoers.
**[21:06] ---**
No fun at all. Right?
**[21:08] ---**
Don't ask me.
**[21:13] ---**
What...
**[21:15] ---**
are you making White do?
**[21:17] ---**
Don't make it sound so sordid.
She's made a friend, right?
**[21:22] ---**
You should be more grateful.
**[21:26] ---**
You're lying! You can
do what you like with me!
**[21:30] ---**
But don't do anything to my sister!
**[21:33] ---**
That's what you agreed to, right?!
**[21:35] ---**
I'm telling you, I'm not doing anything.
**[21:38] ---**
Really?!
**[21:44] ---**
You go to sleep.
It's my turn for a little while.
**[21:48] ---**
I'm not really forcing her to do anything.
**[21:52] ---**
She's doing it because she wants to.
**[22:31] ---**
I hate the fog.
**[22:36] ---**
*Accustomed to the supernatural
disaster-like madness,*
**[22:39] ---**
*I mistake my daily life for peace*
**[22:42] ---**
*As this rambling coaster
jolts me back and forth,*
**[22:46] ---**

*Have to clearly state what
you love and what you hate*

*Ah, crowds of people
walking the streets at night*
**[23:08] ---**

some seem to be so lonely*

**[24:00] ---**
*From one good time,
to a problem, to another good time*
**[24:06] ---**
Thinking back on it now,
nothing decent has happened all day.
**[24:10] ---**
When I woke up, I didn't know
where I was (I was plastered),
**[24:13] ---**
walking down the street, a metal
washtub falls out of the sky (Why?)
**[24:16] ---**
and lately, a man I don't know
has been showing up
**[24:18] ---**
where the girl I like lives
(Simply shocking).
**[24:21] ---**
None of these are my fault. Every last one
of them is because of that old buzzard!
**[24:25] ---**
Hurry up and leave!

If you were not of such puny caliber,

splitting the two styles

Don't be ridiculous.
Circulating blood from the two attributes

of flame and wind
separately within our bodies,
**[01:11] ---**
and being able to use them
in different blood techniques

is beyond the realm of
what humans are capable of.

**[04:27] ---**
Hey...
**[04:29] ---**
*Who* threw this together willy-nilly?
**[04:32] ---**
Airplane...
**[04:35] ---**
Airplane B2B
**[04:35] ---**
Belly-to-Belly!
**[04:44] ---**
You can't be serious.
**[04:46] ---**
Excellent! Exciting!
**[04:48] ---**
Did you see that, ladies and gentlemen?!
**[04:48] ---**
This is all just a game.
**[04:53] ---**
His true name?
**[04:54] ---**
I still only have half!
**[04:55] ---**
You don't say.
**[05:47] ---**
In order for "something" to happen,
**[05:50] ---**
just how much "something else"
do you think is necessary...
**[05:53] ---**
for me to do?
**[06:00] ---**
What is he, playing it
backwards in fast-forward?
**[06:05] ---**
Is the guy inside all right?
**[06:07] ---**
I don't know.
**[06:10] ---**
The Blood Breed's pressure is too great.
**[06:13] ---**
What's up with the color of that aura?
**[06:20] ---**
All done!
**[06:27] ---**
Mm-hmm... Bingo!
**[06:33] ---**
Not again!
**[06:40] ---**
What's that? What do you mean?
**[06:44] ---**
Just answer me.
**[06:46] ---**
Mmm...
**[06:47] ---**
I don't know!
**[06:50] ---**
This is lame.
**[06:52] ---**
I do whatever I want,
regardless of what the world wants,
**[06:58] ---**
and if I don't, I don't.
**[07:03] ---**
I'm not so capricious
that I think about every little thing.
**[07:08] ---**
Oh, no?
**[07:10] ---**
Everyone questions at some point if what
they are doing has any meaning or not.
**[07:18] ---**
Will the day come when
I get what's coming to me, or not?
**[07:22] ---**
How much does my existence
even influence the world--
**[07:28] ---**
--or *doesn't* it?
**[07:31] ---**
Heads.
**[07:32] ---**
Tails.
**[07:42] ---**
I win.
**[07:48] ---**
That should be enough setup.
**[07:53] ---**
That light earlier--
what could that have been?
**[07:57] ---**
Earlier?
**[07:59] ---**
You didn't see it?
**[08:14] ---**
A light was shining up
along the building into the sky,
**[08:17] ---**
like, "flash!"
**[08:27] ---**
Wow!
**[08:28] ---**
Seriously?
**[08:29] ---**
Score!
**[08:35] ---**
It really is lame, huh?
**[08:40] ---**
Truly unpleasant.
**[08:52] ---**
What was that?!
**[08:54] ---**
Huh? Was it that color?
**[08:54] ---**
Amazing! Leo, did you see that?!
**[08:57] ---**
I've never seen *that* before!
**[08:58] ---**
For that matter...
**[09:01] ---**
It didn't explode, did it?
**[09:02] ---**
Mm-hmm, it did, it did.
**[09:04] ---**
You're taking it too lightly!
**[09:08] ---**
Don't be dead.
**[09:26] ---**
Please stand back...
**[09:29] ---**
huma.
**[09:42] ---**
Hey, sorry! I didn't realize
you were half-man, half-fish!
**[09:47] ---**
Not to mention so outlandishly lean!
**[09:53] ---**
Don't forget translucent!
**[09:55] ---**
And that texture!
**[09:58] ---**
Kudzu cake!
**[09:59] ---**
kuzumochi
**[09:59] ---**
Japanese sweets
**[09:59] ---**
Japanese sweets--kudzu cake!
**[10:04] ---**
You are *so* disrespectful, aren't you?
**[10:07] ---**
Sowwy!
**[10:11] ---**
Avert your attention
and you will lose your life.
**[10:14] ---**
*I* was going to say that,
you walking punchline.
**[10:18] ---**
The shape of that blade...
**[10:22] ---**
So he's *him*, is he?
**[10:24] ---**
Looks like the basic blade form
is unchanged for Shinatobe, huh?
**[10:29] ---**
That's a fine-looking trident.
**[10:34] ---**
Here he comes.
**[10:38] ---**
His lower half is torn away.
That's certain death for a man.
**[10:43] ---**
He was locked in battle with elite fang
hunters for ten hours straight, like *that*?
**[10:50] ---**
I wonder if even *they* wore him down any.
**[10:55] ---**
Right now, I sincerely hope so.
**[11:17] ---**

**[11:32] ---**
Finish him off!
**[11:35] ---**
Please, rain hellfire!
**[11:43] ---**
Master!
**[11:52] ---**
Oh, is *that* it?
**[11:56] ---**
Then say so sooner, you dishrag old buzzard!
**[11:59] ---**
Let's go!
**[12:00] ---**
You don't have to tell me!
**[12:03] ---**
Shinatobe!
**[12:03] ---**

**[12:04] ---**

**[12:23] ---**
I hereby seal you!
**[12:30] ---**
Brain Grid Blood Battle Technique, Form 999!
**[12:34] ---**
*Ewiges Gefängnis*!
**[12:37] ---**
Ewiges Gefängnis
**[12:41] ---**
Despise me. Forgive me. Resign yourself.
**[12:48] ---**
I take these barbarous actions
to protect the human world.
**[13:00] ---**
You pass.
**[13:01] ---**
You simultaneously
took action without conferring,
**[13:04] ---**
by sensing each other's abilities
to choose your own most effective roles.
**[13:11] ---**
You show a garbage level of promise
when it comes to fighting Blood Breeds.
**[13:19] ---**
I leave this one in your charge.
**[13:22] ---**
Master!
**[13:34] ---**
I wasn't told... about this.
**[13:39] ---**
Are you all right?
**[13:41] ---**
A double-punch of overwork and shock.
**[13:44] ---**
I feel sorry for him.
**[13:47] ---**
Z's Longest Day (Part 2)
**[13:50] ---**
(Zed)
**[14:00] ---**
Was that all really just a coincidence?
**[14:02] ---**
Lay off, will you?
**[14:04] ---**
What would the point of lying be?
**[14:09] ---**
You *are* a liar, after all.
**[14:15] ---**
It's not like I've really lied to you.
**[14:18] ---**
I just don't feel like telling the truth.
**[14:21] ---**
Liar!
**[14:24] ---**
By and large, if there's anything
I like to do that serves me, I do it.
**[14:30] ---**
However, it's been thoroughly demonstrated
how that actually isn't true, hasn't it?
**[14:37] ---**
Both to me, and to you.
**[14:40] ---**
Here comes a big chance
for you to turn things around!
**[14:47] ---**
Aligura!
**[14:49] ---**
Ugh!
**[14:50] ---**
I honestly thought it was impossible!
**[14:54] ---**
It won't come cheap.
**[14:56] ---**
I know!
**[15:00] ---**
Break them, and I'll kill you.
**[15:01] ---**
Yeah, yeah. Thank you!
**[15:05] ---**
I'll do my best.
**[15:20] ---**
Black!
**[15:21] ---**
Black!
**[15:24] ---**
White...
**[15:27] ---**
White!
**[15:28] ---**
Stay back! Don't come near here!
**[15:37] ---**
I'll let you have my body!
**[15:40] ---**
So don't do anything to my sister!
**[15:47] ---**
I'm begging you.
**[15:51] ---**
Do *nothing* to my sister!
**[15:55] ---**
If you must take...
**[15:58] ---**
then take from me!
**[16:17] ---**
William...
**[16:31] ---**
My name is...
**[16:37] ---**
I look forward to working with you, sister.
**[16:53] ---**
Big Brother...
**[17:13] ---**
Go get your friend's eyeballs for me.
**[17:19] ---**
Do that, and I will return your brother.
**[17:23] ---**
That's what we agreed to, after all.
**[17:28] ---**
Leo is a nice guy.
**[17:30] ---**
Yeah.
**[17:33] ---**
He has a younger sister.
**[17:35] ---**
I know.
**[17:37] ---**
A lot like us.
**[17:39] ---**
You may be right.
**[17:43] ---**
I...
**[17:45] ---**
want to be friends with Leo.
**[17:48] ---**
Quite impossible.
**[17:50] ---**
Now quit your dreaming.
What are you, dumb?
**[17:55] ---**
Do you actually realize
what it is you're trying to do?
**[18:01] ---**
We have plenty of chips,
and the cards are all here.
**[18:06] ---**
You are the player, and I am the banker.
**[18:10] ---**
The game is already in progress.
**[18:13] ---**
Now that the bets are placed,
there's no way to back out until it's over,
**[18:19] ---**
for either one of us.
**[18:23] ---**
Go ahead and say my name.
**[18:40] ---**
You're up early.
**[18:41] ---**
Mr. Klaus...
**[18:44] ---**
Or perhaps you aren't.
**[18:46] ---**
Sorry, I'll clean this up right away.
**[18:56] ---**
Old-style, huh?
**[18:58] ---**
Is that to your sister?
**[19:00] ---**
Yeah... well...
**[19:04] ---**
I can't write anything.
**[19:08] ---**
I want to write something,
but I can't seem to go any further.
**[19:21] ---**
Oh, thanks.
**[19:30] ---**
Leonardo...
**[19:33] ---**
It wasn't,
**[19:36] ---**
by any means, only your
*eyes* that we welcomed into Libra.
**[19:46] ---**
Black? Who, Will?
**[19:48] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[19:49] ---**
Why would you?
**[19:51] ---**
Why? Papa, you said so yourself.
**[19:54] ---**
That Will and I are like alcohol.
**[19:58] ---**
Ah...
**[20:00] ---**
That was just an analogy. And I was drunk.
**[20:05] ---**
That's okay. I've taken a liking to it.
**[20:08] ---**
Uh-huh...
**[20:10] ---**
Mama said it was cool, too.
**[20:12] ---**
Oh?
**[20:14] ---**
Still... you know...
**[20:17] ---**
it might fit you surprisingly well.
**[20:20] ---**
The two of you, "Black and White."
**[20:23] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[20:24] ---**
White and black are completely opposite,
different colors, right?
**[20:29] ---**
Big Brother and I are just like that.
**[20:32] ---**
That's right.
**[20:35] ---**
Still, perhaps because of that,
**[20:39] ---**
from where I sit,
the two of you are quite alike.
**[20:47] ---**
Of course we are. We're twins, after all.
**[20:51] ---**
Yes, indeed. Quite right, Mary.
**[21:04] ---**
From here on out,
**[21:06] ---**
if it ever looks like
your brother is making a mistake,
**[21:11] ---**
you'll have to help Will.
**[21:16] ---**
Isn't that backward?
**[21:17] ---**
Oh, no.
**[21:18] ---**
What do you mean, "making a mistake"?
**[21:20] ---**
Mmm...
**[21:22] ---**
Hurting someone, or tormenting animals...
**[21:25] ---**
William?! There's no way
he'd do that, you know!
**[21:30] ---**
Yeah, I don't think so, either.
**[21:33] ---**
White!
**[21:35] ---**
Black!
**[21:38] ---**
You guys are "two-in-one."
**[21:40] ---**
Huh?
**[21:41] ---**
What?
**[21:43] ---**
A phrase for good luck.
**[21:48] ---**
A wish that you will always be happy.
**[22:01] ---**
Papa... Mama...

I really did have a
rough go of it this time around.
**[24:13] ---**
While there are only
three episodes remaining,
**[24:15] ---**
and I am honestly anxious about
what's to come, it's all part of the training.
**[24:19] ---**
Everyone is nice to me,
and I hope we all get along well.

Next time on Blood Blockade Battlefront:
**[24:26] ---**
"Run! Lunch!! Run!!! / to the end."
**[24:29] ---**
It takes this much effort just to get lunch,
**[24:32] ---**
so it's not surprising that life is so hard.
**[24:33] ---**
Run! Lunch!! Run!!! / to the end.

thank you for waiting!
**[00:20] ---**
Don't cry, Leo! Don't cry!
**[00:22] ---**
Whoa, what's with
these guys? This is so icky.
**[00:25] ---**
We can hear you.
**[00:29] ---**
All right, then...

*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[01:54] ---**

that have become so familiar*

I've been getting by somehow,*

Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[03:22] ---**
Hey,
**[03:24] ---**
let's go get some lunch, already.
**[03:26] ---**
Oh, is it that time already? Okeydokey.
**[03:30] ---**
Mr. Zed, come with us.
**[03:32] ---**
Huh? Who, me?
**[03:32] ---**
Damn it, Leo, what are you inviting him for?
**[03:35] ---**
Our lunch is bound to smell fishy.
**[03:39] ---**
Okay, fine.
**[03:40] ---**
I'll just go with Mr. Zed alone.
Anyone who says that can drop dead.
**[03:45] ---**
Hey, wait up!
**[03:47] ---**
Fine, we'll eat together.
**[03:50] ---**
Sushi
**[03:53] ---**
Urgh!
**[03:53] ---**
Ack!
**[03:54] ---**
Ooof!
**[03:54] ---**
Mama!
**[03:56] ---**
Ooh, doesn't *that* look good, am I right?
**[03:59] ---**
Indeed.
**[04:01] ---**
Wait, you're going in?!
**[04:03] ---**
Something wrong?
**[04:04] ---**
Something--? That's cannibalism,
right? Cannibalism!
**[04:09] ---**
What do you think
fish in the sea typically eat?
**[04:13] ---**
Creatures that also live in the sea.
**[04:16] ---**
Your low-level put-downs are
among the misdirected statements
**[04:19] ---**
that arise from your lack of culture.
**[04:23] ---**
Once you get that through your head,
let's go ahead and eat--
**[04:26] ---**
Wait!
**[04:27] ---**
T-Tuna was my unlucky number today!
**[04:30] ---**
Tuna isn't even a number, is it?
**[04:32] ---**
My stomach hurts.
**[04:34] ---**
Then, shall we skip lunch and head back?
**[04:37] ---**
Admit that you only came out
to haze the new guy, and head back?
**[04:44] ---**
I'm better!
**[04:47] ---**
Let's try the next restaurant!
**[04:49] ---**
What is that man's problem?
**[04:56] ---**
Come on in!
**[04:58] ---**
I see. This is novel. Let's go.
**[05:01] ---**
Please, no! I'm out!
**[05:04] ---**
Leo, a mother bird regurgitates what she has
swallowed and digested to give to her chicks.
**[05:10] ---**
Birds! We're talking about *birds*!
**[05:14] ---**
I got no problem with this place.
**[05:16] ---**
Clam chowder? Okay. That sounds good.
**[05:25] ---**
Please, you try be more careful.
**[05:27] ---**
There's no "try" here, lady!
What do you put in your clam chowder?!
**[05:33] ---**
Cla? Mchow?
**[05:35] ---**
This Clamcuhou restaurant.
**[05:40] ---**
I'm having none of this!
**[05:44] ---**
Step right up!
**[05:52] ---**
Are you going to eat me?
**[05:57] ---**
Welcome home, master.
**[06:02] ---**
It's dripping in there! It's dripping in there!
**[06:05] ---**
Yummy!
**[06:05] ---**
Super-good!
**[06:06] ---**
No way!
**[06:11] ---**
Why is each and every place
we go to someplace weird?!
**[06:15] ---**
Let's just get along, okay?!
**[06:15] ---**
I'm just saying let's eat something, aren't I?
**[06:20] ---**
You're relieved on the inside
that Leo made such a fuss
**[06:23] ---**
turning down those places, aren't you?
**[06:26] ---**
You're not even trying to hide
the fact that you're hazing me anymore.
**[06:30] ---**
*You're* the one who's on the verge
of peeing his pants, aren't you?
**[06:33] ---**
Huh?!
**[06:36] ---**
Our lunch hour is running out. Really.
**[06:45] ---**
The Thousand Regioka Brothers?
**[06:47] ---**
Yeah, that's right. An emerging
mafia family is out to upset things.
**[06:54] ---**
It may sound hard to believe,
but the 1,000 brothers thing is for real.
**[06:59] ---**
So?
**[07:00] ---**
The other day, 1,000 used Chinese-made
powered suits were exported.
**[07:05] ---**
But after searching all over the globe,
**[07:08] ---**
there's no intel on the recipients.
**[07:10] ---**
Their hunch is that Juggernaut Smith,
of Varrow & Hohler Freight, carried them off.
**[07:16] ---**
If their guess is correct,
**[07:18] ---**
a huge party will be
breaking out in town before too long.
**[07:24] ---**
So?
**[07:25] ---**
You want us to help, too?
**[07:27] ---**
That's right.
**[07:29] ---**
All thousand of them move at once.
**[07:33] ---**
There aren't enough of us to arrest them all.
**[07:38] ---**
Sounds risky.
**[07:40] ---**
In all the confusion, *we* might end up
being handcuffed from behind.
**[07:45] ---**
You suspicion is well-deserved.
The desire to do so is significant.
**[07:51] ---**
But think about it. A case as big as this one?
**[07:55] ---**
It's already reached anyone
with sharp enough ears.
**[07:59] ---**
If the chaos drags on too long,
**[08:01] ---**
other troublemakers will
avail themselves of the opportunity.
**[08:05] ---**
Ah, no fair. He's pushing his buttons.
**[08:14] ---**
Looks like the boss's mind is made up.
**[08:18] ---**
I suppose you'll have to owe us one,
**[08:22] ---**
Lieutenant Daniel Law?
**[08:24] ---**
You bet.
**[08:26] ---**
Which is why I still
haven't arrested you, right?
**[08:31] ---**
Steven.
**[08:36] ---**
I heard you slammed into
a building with the nose of a C-17.
**[08:40] ---**
Er, yeah...
**[08:41] ---**
Strategically, it was unavoidable.
**[08:44] ---**
Oh, well.
**[08:46] ---**
It's unusual for them
to call us in like this, huh?
**[08:50] ---**
It sure is.
**[08:52] ---**
Frankly, I have a bad feeling about this.
**[09:01] ---**
It's been nearly three years, hasn't it...
**[09:04] ---**
League of High Order Spiritualists...
**[09:08] ---**
since we've had the pleasure
of LHOS's company?
**[09:13] ---**
League of High Order Spirituals (noun)
**[09:15] ---**
Abbreviated as LHOS.
Core organization bringing together the casters
**[09:18] ---**
who raised the barrier
stopping the Great Collapse of New York.
**[09:25] ---**
Subtitle (#10)
**[09:26] ---**
Run! Lunch!! Run!!!/to the end.
**[09:38] ---**
Mr. Abrams!
**[09:40] ---**
Please stop standing on formality!
**[09:45] ---**
It pains me.
**[09:48] ---**
Incidentally, the doctor is late,
and I'm just filling time.
**[09:54] ---**
'Angelica'
**[09:56] ---**
Mr. Klaus, Mr. Steven...
**[09:58] ---**
Long time no see.
**[10:00] ---**
I'll never get used to seeing it--
**[10:01] ---**
the world-bounding abilities of casters.
**[10:01] ---**
PSI holders make up a majority.
**[10:05] ---**
But if you were to stay here...
**[10:08] ---**
in all honesty, you'd be like a normal person.
**[10:11] ---**
That's no reason for you to
use your power so excessively.
**[10:15] ---**
Doctor!
**[10:15] ---**
I told you, to all things, there is a price.
**[10:19] ---**
Our powers are not for ourselves,
but for people all over.
**[10:24] ---**
Right.
**[10:27] ---**
Elder.
**[10:28] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[10:30] ---**
Sorry I'm late, gentlemen of Libra.
**[10:33] ---**
'Elder'
**[10:34] ---**
I apologize for my pupil. I'm glad you came.
**[10:41] ---**
Excuse me.
**[10:42] ---**
It's me. It's about the missing units.
**[10:44] ---**
They're Chinese-made humanoid mobile slaved
infantry, the People's Bright Star, type 3.
**[10:50] ---**
The model number is an older one,
**[10:53] ---**
but they're reliable, and in any case, tough,
**[10:55] ---**
which made them a huge best-seller,
all around the world.
**[10:58] ---**
But then, they'd have to be,
or they couldn't get 1,000 of them, huh?
**[11:02] ---**
Anyhow, they're cheap, they're nasty,
and perfect for force-of-numbers fighting.
**[11:08] ---**
The question is, how do you
operate them *en masse*?
**[11:11] ---**
Have you staked out all of the usual fixers?
**[11:14] ---**
Of course. But we got nothing.
**[11:16] ---**
Okay.
**[11:18] ---**
We'll look into it on our end.
**[11:25] ---**
Let's stop, already.
**[11:28] ---**
Let's just eat a regular lunch.
**[11:40] ---**
W-Who are you?!
**[11:42] ---**
All right, people...
**[11:44] ---**
God of Chow (noun)
**[11:46] ---**
Are you going to eat,
or aren't you?! Make up your mind!
**[11:49] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[11:50] ---**
Do not play with your food!
**[11:53] ---**
Huh? But I'm not doing that--
**[11:54] ---**
Be mindful to eat a balanced meal!
**[11:59] ---**
Huh?
**[12:00] ---**
Do not eat after 10:00 at night!
**[12:03] ---**
Am I on a diet?!
**[12:08] ---**
Are you all right?
**[12:11] ---**
Mr. Zapp, if we're going to eat, then really...
**[12:19] ---**
Ah, welcome!
**[12:21] ---**
We have some fine whitefish in today.
**[12:24] ---**
You're always too good to us,
Artie and Charmaine.
**[12:28] ---**
What are you talking about?
Make yourselves at home.
**[12:31] ---**
It really smells good.
**[12:34] ---**
It's not a place I can always
drop by as casually as this, though.
**[12:38] ---**
I think I'm going to spoil myself today!
**[12:42] ---**
All right!
**[12:44] ---**
Thank you for our food--
**[12:46] ---**
Artie!
**[12:48] ---**
Oh, whatever is wrong, *se—orita*?
**[12:52] ---**
Nuh-uh, what's with the act?
**[12:54] ---**
Er, um...
**[12:56] ---**
You promised not to
come near the restaurant, right?
**[12:59] ---**
Well, what about you? When are you
finally going to leave your wife?
**[13:03] ---**
Hey, who do you think you are young lady?!
**[13:05] ---**
Oh, there she is! The wife from hell!
**[13:07] ---**
Do you know how much your husband
bitches about you when we're in bed?
**[13:11] ---**
It gets so hard to comfort him!
**[13:15] ---**
Now, now...
**[13:16] ---**
You, too, you rotten di--!
The both of you can go to hell!
**[13:21] ---**
H-Hey, stop!
**[13:27] ---**
Hmm... well now... Artie is quite the...
**[13:32] ---**
Mr. Zapp, you should watch out, too,
when dealing with women.
**[13:37] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[13:41] ---**
Oh, God of Chow,
things have taken a nasty turn.
**[13:46] ---**
Yo! Come right on in!
**[13:49] ---**
Look, man, the Grinjko Familia,
or whoever the hell they were,
**[13:53] ---**
kept buggin' me about
sellin' my shop and stuff.
**[13:56] ---**
I just got done polishin' the guys off.
**[14:00] ---**
Word is that their lieutenant's
gonna be by to retaliate any time now.
**[14:03] ---**
I was plannin' to treat him to
some soup seasoned with his own flunkies.
**[14:08] ---**
Care for a bowl?
**[14:12] ---**
I'm checking the
independent dive in Little Akiba,
**[14:15] ---**
but he's clean.
**[14:17] ---**
He fell asleep playing a porno game.
**[14:20] ---**
How can you tell?
**[14:21] ---**
What was it again?
**[14:22] ---**
"Starry Sleep Station VI's" launch date!
**[14:24] ---**
On sale soon! Reserve yours now!
**[14:26] ---**
I swore I wouldn't rest until
I've conquered Lemuria the Librarian,
**[14:31] ---**
Sasha the Kazunagian, and the
Twins of the Cliff Palace routes!
**[14:37] ---**
So, um...
**[14:39] ---**
it's a game?
**[14:40] ---**
So it seems.
**[14:41] ---**
What are you talking about?!
**[14:42] ---**
Hey, you're asking the wrong person.
**[14:45] ---**
Surprisingly enough,
the situation may be now or never.
**[14:49] ---**
It's hopeless!
**[14:52] ---**
This has completely backfired!
Every last bit of it!
**[14:56] ---**
We have displeased the God of Chow!
**[14:57] ---**
Who's the God of Chow?
**[14:59] ---**
It's all because we were
using food for hazing!
**[15:02] ---**
It's no wonder we've been cursed!
**[15:04] ---**
Please take it easy, Leo.
**[15:07] ---**
It's Divine Famishment!
**[15:10] ---**
Food!
**[15:12] ---**
Punishment! Punishment!
**[15:16] ---**
*--Onbutsu sowaka mareba eloim essaza*...
**[15:17] ---**
This is bad. It's not too often
**[15:20] ---**
that he gets pushed this far.
**[15:23] ---**
He's either receiving a message,
or reciting some original religious chant,
**[15:28] ---**
so we'd better get him some care, quickly.
**[15:30] ---**
Is there someplace where he is at ease,
or that reminds him of home?
**[15:35] ---**
That would be...
**[15:37] ---**
You know, we could have gone there
in the first place, couldn't we?
**[15:41] ---**
Welcome to Dianne's!
**[15:43] ---**
Hey, what's wrong with Leo?
**[15:47] ---**
This looks okay, right?
**[15:48] ---**
Yes.
**[15:49] ---**
What? What? Why all the apprehension?
**[15:56] ---**
Look, if someone's out to kill you
or something, go somewhere else.
**[16:02] ---**
Come on, Leo! Pull it together!
**[16:05] ---**
Leo!
**[16:06] ---**
You guys are acting even weirder than usual.
**[16:11] ---**
So, what's your order?
**[16:13] ---**
A large hamburger, a large spaghetti
with meat sauce, and a large Coke!
**[16:17] ---**
I'll take that... as well.
**[16:20] ---**
I'll have the same.
**[16:21] ---**
You got it.
**[16:25] ---**
I don't know what you've been doing,
**[16:27] ---**
but you shouldn't act like these guys
and pick up on nothing but
**[16:30] ---**
their weird horsing around, Leo.
**[16:32] ---**
Your parents back home
would worry about you, right?
**[16:34] ---**
We're not horsing around.
**[16:34] ---**
Hold on, now, Vivian!
**[16:36] ---**
But then again, finding someone
to eat with you is a good thing.
**[16:45] ---**
You've been coming here
with someone else a lot lately, huh?
**[16:49] ---**
Before, you'd just sit there all alone.
**[16:51] ---**
Eh? What was that? How lonesome!
Aren't you lucky I'm here, Leo?
**[17:03] ---**
Yes, I am.
**[17:05] ---**
Lucky me.
**[17:06] ---**
Right?
**[17:08] ---**
What are you blushing for? It's disgusting.
**[17:10] ---**
Huh?!
**[17:20] ---**
Don't cry, Leo! Don't cry!
**[17:32] ---**
Zapp, Leo, and Zed [Afterward] (exposition)
**[17:33] ---**
Following the battle with
the Thousand Regioka Brothers,
**[17:36] ---**
they have lunch at the first sushi restaurant.
**[17:38] ---**
Zapp gets sick from the tuna,
and spends the rest of the day in the hospital.
**[17:43] ---**
I'm sorry things were so hurried, Elder.
**[17:47] ---**
You are, without a doubt,
one of the busiest people here, after all.
**[17:53] ---**
Don't worry about it.
**[17:56] ---**
As it happens,
one of the barriers is damaged.
**[18:00] ---**
The one that was right here,
right when you guys were fighting.
**[18:04] ---**
You mean...
**[18:07] ---**
We're the ones who...?
**[18:08] ---**
No, it's not something
that can be physically damaged,
**[18:12] ---**
so it's not that. It was an accident.
**[18:14] ---**
Still, it is a bit concerning.
**[18:18] ---**
That's why I called you here.
**[18:27] ---**
Hey...
**[18:32] ---**
There is one person
whose whereabouts are unknown
**[18:36] ---**
within the barrier that
we raised three years ago.
**[18:40] ---**
Let me go! If I don't run away, I'll be killed!
**[18:45] ---**
Damn little brat!
**[18:46] ---**
Hey, hold it!
**[18:49] ---**
The caster couple who was in charge perished.
**[18:52] ---**
Not even we were fully aware
of the situation at the time.
**[18:59] ---**
Hey, pipsqueak!
**[19:00] ---**
You let the kid get away, huh?
**[19:05] ---**
The thing is, there was someone
who came out of there alive.
**[19:10] ---**
The children of the dead casters.
**[19:14] ---**
Hey, let's play a game.
**[19:16] ---**
Hmm?
**[19:16] ---**
Huh? What are you talking about?
**[19:18] ---**
If you win, I'll step aside,
**[19:20] ---**
and I'll even catch that kid
from earlier for you.
**[19:26] ---**
Guess what it is that I am.
**[19:32] ---**
You know...
**[19:33] ---**
what my name is, don't you?
**[19:37] ---**
Like hell we do, you idio--
**[19:43] ---**
How about you?
**[19:47] ---**
Guess what I am.
**[19:52] ---**
If, by some chance, your answer is wrong...
**[19:59] ---**
I'll blow your soul to bits!
**[20:04] ---**
One of them is even now
in the League, as a caster.
**[20:09] ---**
The other one...
**[20:11] ---**
Leo!
**[20:14] ---**
Hey!
**[20:15] ---**
You're here.
**[20:16] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[20:17] ---**
One of my superiors at work
got sick from eating sushi.
**[20:21] ---**
Not me. I can't eat raw fish.
**[20:25] ---**
Someone else. One whose
unlucky number today was tuna.
**[20:29] ---**
What do you mean?
Tuna isn't a number, you know.
**[20:32] ---**
She's right, Leo. The tuna is not at fault.
**[20:36] ---**
The problem always lies primarily with him.
**[20:37] ---**
Should have just had sushi in the first place...
**[20:42] ---**
That's funny!
You must be good friends, right?
**[20:45] ---**
No, we are not.
**[20:45] ---**
Right?
**[20:48] ---**
I'll stop by his room and then head home.
**[20:51] ---**
I'll peek in on my way home, too.
**[20:53] ---**
Goodbye, Mr. Zed.
**[20:55] ---**
Right.
**[20:59] ---**
Leo...
**[21:01] ---**
I'll see you tomorrow.
**[21:03] ---**
Right.
**[21:16] ---**
Leo!
**[21:27] ---**
This is the first time
I've ever seen you in the chapel.
**[21:32] ---**
That's because this place
is for people to pray in.
**[21:36] ---**
It's not natural for me to be here.
**[21:39] ---**
Hmm...
**[21:44] ---**
Does it have something
to do with you being a ghost?
**[21:51] ---**
Yeah.
**[21:54] ---**
But right now,
I feel a little bit like praying...
**[21:59] ---**
for your sake.
**[22:02] ---**
Don't lie.
**[22:05] ---**
The reason you want to pray
is for your own sake, right?
**[22:11] ---**
After everything that's happened,
are you *still* hoping for salvation?
**[22:17] ---**
Humans are so full of arrogance.
**[22:20] ---**
Black...?
**[22:24] ---**
The All-seeing Eyes of the Gods...
**[22:31] ---**
I want you to give me... your eyes.
**[22:36] ---**

Hey! It's the sonic speed monkey, Sonic!
**[24:10] ---**
As it happens, Leo is busy
talking on the phone...
**[24:13] ---**
but I can hear his voice
on the radio in front of me!
**[24:18] ---**
Hm?
**[24:19] ---**
Leo is on the phone looking back
on everything that's happened
**[24:21] ---**
since he came to Hellsalem's Lot?
**[24:24] ---**
And what's this? He's asking for advice?
**[24:26] ---**
I thought we were friends!
At times like this, turn to ME!
**[24:29] ---**
Next time, we bring you a special
episode of Blood Blockade Battlefront.

One large hamburger, one large
spaghetti and meat sauce, one large Coke,
**[00:09] ---**
thank you for waiting!
**[00:20] ---**
Don't cry, Leo! Don't cry!
**[00:22] ---**
Whoa, what's with
these guys? This is so icky.
**[00:25] ---**
We can hear you.
**[00:29] ---**
All right, then...
**[00:31] ---**
Thank you for our food--

Stop making trouble for me, fishman!
**[01:02] ---**
Right.
**[01:04] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[01:09] ---**
Ow!
**[01:10] ---**
We've gotten wrecked again!
**[01:10] ---**
Hey, man, what the hell?!
**[01:13] ---**
Wait, Chief?
**[01:17] ---**
Perfect timing.
**[01:18] ---**
Come give us a hand, all three of you!

Hellsalem's Lot--a city where this
world and the alterworld intersect.
**[01:31] ---**
This is the record of
the clandestine activities
**[01:34] ---**
of the secret society of supermen,
Libra, which works in the shadows
**[01:38] ---**
to preserve the balance of worlds.
**[01:41] ---**
*Upon opening the door,
I found a twisted noontime evening*
**[01:45] ---**
*How did I get home yesterday?
My body's the only thing I'm sure of*
**[01:50] ---**
*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[01:54] ---**
*among the unknown sights
that have become so familiar*
**[02:08] ---**
*After I figured all was lost,
I've been getting by somehow,*
**[02:12] ---**
*somewhat embarrassed to
be tough enough to still be alive*
**[02:17] ---**
*I know what I have to do, even if I forget*
**[02:21] ---**
*Otherwise, things become so agonizing*
**[02:26] ---**
*I look up to see someone with big black eyes*
**[02:30] ---**
*It's because I saw you
that this light came to be*
**[02:35] ---**
*Surrounded by a world
painted in colors of my choosing,*
**[02:40] ---**
*where do I find meaning in
the scars I could not choose?*
**[02:44] ---**
*In the heart of a world
where only I am the hero,*
**[02:49] ---**
*I'm onstage, appearing
in every scene until the end*
**[02:53] ---**
*What do I do? I can't
even pretend to be empty*
**[02:58] ---**
*Hello, hi there, here I am*
**[03:03] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[03:22] ---**
Hey,
**[03:24] ---**
let's go get some lunch, already.
**[03:26] ---**
Oh, is it that time already? Okeydokey.
**[03:30] ---**
Mr. Zed, come with us.
**[03:32] ---**
Huh? Who, me?
**[03:32] ---**
Damn it, Leo, what are you inviting him for?
**[03:35] ---**
Our lunch is bound to smell fishy.
**[03:39] ---**
Okay, fine.
**[03:40] ---**
I'll just go with Mr. Zed alone.
Anyone who says that can drop dead.
**[03:45] ---**
Hey, wait up!
**[03:47] ---**
Fine, we'll eat together.
**[03:50] ---**
Sushi
**[03:53] ---**
Urgh!
**[03:53] ---**
Ack!
**[03:54] ---**
Ooof!
**[03:54] ---**
Mama!
**[03:56] ---**
Ooh, doesn't *that* look good, am I right?
**[03:59] ---**
Indeed.
**[04:01] ---**
Wait, you're going in?!
**[04:03] ---**
Something wrong?
**[04:04] ---**
Something--? That's cannibalism,
right? Cannibalism!
**[04:09] ---**
What do you think
fish in the sea typically eat?
**[04:13] ---**
Creatures that also live in the sea.
**[04:16] ---**
Your low-level put-downs are
among the misdirected statements
**[04:19] ---**
that arise from your lack of culture.
**[04:23] ---**
Once you get that through your head,
let's go ahead and eat--
**[04:26] ---**
Wait!
**[04:27] ---**
T-Tuna was my unlucky number today!
**[04:30] ---**
Tuna isn't even a number, is it?
**[04:32] ---**
My stomach hurts.
**[04:34] ---**
Then, shall we skip lunch and head back?
**[04:37] ---**
Admit that you only came out
to haze the new guy, and head back?
**[04:44] ---**
I'm better!
**[04:47] ---**
Let's try the next restaurant!
**[04:49] ---**
What is that man's problem?
**[04:56] ---**
Come on in!
**[04:58] ---**
I see. This is novel. Let's go.
**[05:01] ---**
Please, no! I'm out!
**[05:04] ---**
Leo, a mother bird regurgitates what she has
swallowed and digested to give to her chicks.
**[05:10] ---**
Birds! We're talking about *birds*!
**[05:14] ---**
I got no problem with this place.
**[05:16] ---**
Clam chowder? Okay. That sounds good.
**[05:25] ---**
Please, you try be more careful.
**[05:27] ---**
There's no "try" here, lady!
What do you put in your clam chowder?!
**[05:33] ---**
Cla? Mchow?
**[05:35] ---**
This Clamcuhou restaurant.
**[05:40] ---**
I'm having none of this!
**[05:44] ---**
Step right up!
**[05:52] ---**
Are you going to eat me?
**[05:57] ---**
Welcome home, master.
**[06:02] ---**
It's dripping in there! It's dripping in there!
**[06:05] ---**
Yummy!
**[06:05] ---**
Super-good!
**[06:06] ---**
No way!
**[06:11] ---**
Why is each and every place
we go to someplace weird?!
**[06:15] ---**
Let's just get along, okay?!
**[06:15] ---**
I'm just saying let's eat something, aren't I?
**[06:20] ---**
You're relieved on the inside
that Leo made such a fuss
**[06:23] ---**
turning down those places, aren't you?
**[06:26] ---**
You're not even trying to hide
the fact that you're hazing me anymore.
**[06:30] ---**
*You're* the one who's on the verge
of peeing his pants, aren't you?
**[06:33] ---**
Huh?!
**[06:36] ---**
Our lunch hour is running out. Really.
**[06:45] ---**
The Thousand Regioka Brothers?
**[06:47] ---**
Yeah, that's right. An emerging
mafia family is out to upset things.
**[06:54] ---**
It may sound hard to believe,
but the 1,000 brothers thing is for real.
**[06:59] ---**
So?
**[07:00] ---**
The other day, 1,000 used Chinese-made
powered suits were exported.
**[07:05] ---**
But after searching all over the globe,
**[07:08] ---**
there's no intel on the recipients.
**[07:10] ---**
Their hunch is that Juggernaut Smith,
of Varrow & Hohler Freight, carried them off.
**[07:16] ---**
If their guess is correct,
**[07:18] ---**
a huge party will be
breaking out in town before too long.
**[07:24] ---**
So?
**[07:25] ---**
You want us to help, too?
**[07:27] ---**
That's right.
**[07:29] ---**
All thousand of them move at once.
**[07:33] ---**
There aren't enough of us to arrest them all.
**[07:38] ---**
Sounds risky.
**[07:40] ---**
In all the confusion, *we* might end up
being handcuffed from behind.
**[07:45] ---**
You suspicion is well-deserved.
The desire to do so is significant.
**[07:51] ---**
But think about it. A case as big as this one?
**[07:55] ---**
It's already reached anyone
with sharp enough ears.
**[07:59] ---**
If the chaos drags on too long,
**[08:01] ---**
other troublemakers will
avail themselves of the opportunity.
**[08:05] ---**
Ah, no fair. He's pushing his buttons.
**[08:14] ---**
Looks like the boss's mind is made up.
**[08:18] ---**
I suppose you'll have to owe us one,
**[08:22] ---**
Lieutenant Daniel Law?
**[08:24] ---**
You bet.
**[08:26] ---**
Which is why I still
haven't arrested you, right?
**[08:31] ---**
Steven.
**[08:36] ---**
I heard you slammed into
a building with the nose of a C-17.
**[08:40] ---**
Er, yeah...
**[08:41] ---**
Strategically, it was unavoidable.
**[08:44] ---**
Oh, well.
**[08:46] ---**
It's unusual for them
to call us in like this, huh?
**[08:50] ---**
It sure is.
**[08:52] ---**
Frankly, I have a bad feeling about this.
**[09:01] ---**
It's been nearly three years, hasn't it...
**[09:04] ---**
League of High Order Spiritualists...
**[09:08] ---**
since we've had the pleasure
of LHOS's company?
**[09:13] ---**
League of High Order Spirituals (noun)
**[09:15] ---**
Abbreviated as LHOS.
Core organization bringing together the casters
**[09:18] ---**
who raised the barrier
stopping the Great Collapse of New York.
**[09:25] ---**
Subtitle (#10)
**[09:26] ---**
Run! Lunch!! Run!!!/to the end.
**[09:38] ---**
Mr. Abrams!
**[09:40] ---**
Please stop standing on formality!
**[09:45] ---**
It pains me.
**[09:48] ---**
Incidentally, the doctor is late,
and I'm just filling time.
**[09:54] ---**
'Angelica'
**[09:56] ---**
Mr. Klaus, Mr. Steven...
**[09:58] ---**
Long time no see.
**[10:00] ---**
I'll never get used to seeing it--
**[10:01] ---**
the world-bounding abilities of casters.
**[10:01] ---**
PSI holders make up a majority.
**[10:05] ---**
But if you were to stay here...
**[10:08] ---**
in all honesty, you'd be like a normal person.
**[10:11] ---**
That's no reason for you to
use your power so excessively.
**[10:15] ---**
Doctor!
**[10:15] ---**
I told you, to all things, there is a price.
**[10:19] ---**
Our powers are not for ourselves,
but for people all over.
**[10:24] ---**
Right.
**[10:27] ---**
Elder.
**[10:28] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[10:30] ---**
Sorry I'm late, gentlemen of Libra.
**[10:33] ---**
'Elder'
**[10:34] ---**
I apologize for my pupil. I'm glad you came.
**[10:41] ---**
Excuse me.
**[10:42] ---**
It's me. It's about the missing units.
**[10:44] ---**
They're Chinese-made humanoid mobile slaved
infantry, the People's Bright Star, type 3.
**[10:50] ---**
The model number is an older one,
**[10:53] ---**
but they're reliable, and in any case, tough,
**[10:55] ---**
which made them a huge best-seller,
all around the world.
**[10:58] ---**
But then, they'd have to be,
or they couldn't get 1,000 of them, huh?
**[11:02] ---**
Anyhow, they're cheap, they're nasty,
and perfect for force-of-numbers fighting.
**[11:08] ---**
The question is, how do you
operate them *en masse*?
**[11:11] ---**
Have you staked out all of the usual fixers?
**[11:14] ---**
Of course. But we got nothing.
**[11:16] ---**
Okay.
**[11:18] ---**
We'll look into it on our end.
**[11:25] ---**
Let's stop, already.
**[11:28] ---**
Let's just eat a regular lunch.
**[11:40] ---**
W-Who are you?!
**[11:42] ---**
All right, people...
**[11:44] ---**
God of Chow (noun)
**[11:46] ---**
Are you going to eat,
or aren't you?! Make up your mind!
**[11:49] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[11:50] ---**
Do not play with your food!
**[11:53] ---**
Huh? But I'm not doing that--
**[11:54] ---**
Be mindful to eat a balanced meal!
**[11:59] ---**
Huh?
**[12:00] ---**
Do not eat after 10:00 at night!
**[12:03] ---**
Am I on a diet?!
**[12:08] ---**
Are you all right?
**[12:11] ---**
Mr. Zapp, if we're going to eat, then really...
**[12:19] ---**
Ah, welcome!
**[12:21] ---**
We have some fine whitefish in today.
**[12:24] ---**
You're always too good to us,
Artie and Charmaine.
**[12:28] ---**
What are you talking about?
Make yourselves at home.
**[12:31] ---**
It really smells good.
**[12:34] ---**
It's not a place I can always
drop by as casually as this, though.
**[12:38] ---**
I think I'm going to spoil myself today!
**[12:42] ---**
All right!
**[12:44] ---**
Thank you for our food--
**[12:46] ---**
Artie!
**[12:48] ---**
Oh, whatever is wrong, *se—orita*?
**[12:52] ---**
Nuh-uh, what's with the act?
**[12:54] ---**
Er, um...
**[12:56] ---**
You promised not to
come near the restaurant, right?
**[12:59] ---**
Well, what about you? When are you
finally going to leave your wife?
**[13:03] ---**
Hey, who do you think you are young lady?!
**[13:05] ---**
Oh, there she is! The wife from hell!
**[13:07] ---**
Do you know how much your husband
bitches about you when we're in bed?
**[13:11] ---**
It gets so hard to comfort him!
**[13:15] ---**
Now, now...
**[13:16] ---**
You, too, you rotten di--!
The both of you can go to hell!
**[13:21] ---**
H-Hey, stop!
**[13:27] ---**
Hmm... well now... Artie is quite the...
**[13:32] ---**
Mr. Zapp, you should watch out, too,
when dealing with women.
**[13:37] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[13:41] ---**
Oh, God of Chow,
things have taken a nasty turn.
**[13:46] ---**
Yo! Come right on in!
**[13:49] ---**
Look, man, the Grinjko Familia,
or whoever the hell they were,
**[13:53] ---**
kept buggin' me about
sellin' my shop and stuff.
**[13:56] ---**
I just got done polishin' the guys off.
**[14:00] ---**
Word is that their lieutenant's
gonna be by to retaliate any time now.
**[14:03] ---**
I was plannin' to treat him to
some soup seasoned with his own flunkies.
**[14:08] ---**
Care for a bowl?
**[14:12] ---**
I'm checking the
independent dive in Little Akiba,
**[14:15] ---**
but he's clean.
**[14:17] ---**
He fell asleep playing a porno game.
**[14:20] ---**
How can you tell?
**[14:21] ---**
What was it again?
**[14:22] ---**
"Starry Sleep Station VI's" launch date!
**[14:24] ---**
On sale soon! Reserve yours now!
**[14:26] ---**
I swore I wouldn't rest until
I've conquered Lemuria the Librarian,
**[14:31] ---**
Sasha the Kazunagian, and the
Twins of the Cliff Palace routes!
**[14:37] ---**
So, um...
**[14:39] ---**
it's a game?
**[14:40] ---**
So it seems.
**[14:41] ---**
What are you talking about?!
**[14:42] ---**
Hey, you're asking the wrong person.
**[14:45] ---**
Surprisingly enough,
the situation may be now or never.
**[14:49] ---**
It's hopeless!
**[14:52] ---**
This has completely backfired!
Every last bit of it!
**[14:56] ---**
We have displeased the God of Chow!
**[14:57] ---**
Who's the God of Chow?
**[14:59] ---**
It's all because we were
using food for hazing!
**[15:02] ---**
It's no wonder we've been cursed!
**[15:04] ---**
Please take it easy, Leo.
**[15:07] ---**
It's Divine Famishment!
**[15:10] ---**
Food!
**[15:12] ---**
Punishment! Punishment!
**[15:16] ---**
*--Onbutsu sowaka mareba eloim essaza*...
**[15:17] ---**
This is bad. It's not too often
**[15:20] ---**
that he gets pushed this far.
**[15:23] ---**
He's either receiving a message,
or reciting some original religious chant,
**[15:28] ---**
so we'd better get him some care, quickly.
**[15:30] ---**
Is there someplace where he is at ease,
or that reminds him of home?
**[15:35] ---**
That would be...
**[15:37] ---**
You know, we could have gone there
in the first place, couldn't we?
**[15:41] ---**
Welcome to Dianne's!
**[15:43] ---**
Hey, what's wrong with Leo?
**[15:47] ---**
This looks okay, right?
**[15:48] ---**
Yes.
**[15:49] ---**
What? What? Why all the apprehension?
**[15:56] ---**
Look, if someone's out to kill you
or something, go somewhere else.
**[16:02] ---**
Come on, Leo! Pull it together!
**[16:05] ---**
Leo!
**[16:06] ---**
You guys are acting even weirder than usual.
**[16:11] ---**
So, what's your order?
**[16:13] ---**
A large hamburger, a large spaghetti
with meat sauce, and a large Coke!
**[16:17] ---**
I'll take that... as well.
**[16:20] ---**
I'll have the same.
**[16:21] ---**
You got it.
**[16:25] ---**
I don't know what you've been doing,
**[16:27] ---**
but you shouldn't act like these guys
and pick up on nothing but
**[16:30] ---**
their weird horsing around, Leo.
**[16:32] ---**
Your parents back home
would worry about you, right?
**[16:34] ---**
We're not horsing around.
**[16:34] ---**
Hold on, now, Vivian!
**[16:36] ---**
But then again, finding someone
to eat with you is a good thing.
**[16:45] ---**
You've been coming here
with someone else a lot lately, huh?
**[16:49] ---**
Before, you'd just sit there all alone.
**[16:51] ---**
Eh? What was that? How lonesome!
Aren't you lucky I'm here, Leo?
**[17:03] ---**
Yes, I am.
**[17:05] ---**
Lucky me.
**[17:06] ---**
Right?
**[17:08] ---**
What are you blushing for? It's disgusting.
**[17:10] ---**
Huh?!
**[17:20] ---**
Don't cry, Leo! Don't cry!
**[17:32] ---**
Zapp, Leo, and Zed [Afterward] (exposition)
**[17:33] ---**
Following the battle with
the Thousand Regioka Brothers,
**[17:36] ---**
they have lunch at the first sushi restaurant.
**[17:38] ---**
Zapp gets sick from the tuna,
and spends the rest of the day in the hospital.
**[17:43] ---**
I'm sorry things were so hurried, Elder.
**[17:47] ---**
You are, without a doubt,
one of the busiest people here, after all.
**[17:53] ---**
Don't worry about it.
**[17:56] ---**
As it happens,
one of the barriers is damaged.
**[18:00] ---**
The one that was right here,
right when you guys were fighting.
**[18:04] ---**
You mean...
**[18:07] ---**
We're the ones who...?
**[18:08] ---**
No, it's not something
that can be physically damaged,
**[18:12] ---**
so it's not that. It was an accident.
**[18:14] ---**
Still, it is a bit concerning.
**[18:18] ---**
That's why I called you here.
**[18:27] ---**
Hey...
**[18:32] ---**
There is one person
whose whereabouts are unknown
**[18:36] ---**
within the barrier that
we raised three years ago.
**[18:40] ---**
Let me go! If I don't run away, I'll be killed!
**[18:45] ---**
Damn little brat!
**[18:46] ---**
Hey, hold it!
**[18:49] ---**
The caster couple who was in charge perished.
**[18:52] ---**
Not even we were fully aware
of the situation at the time.
**[18:59] ---**
Hey, pipsqueak!
**[19:00] ---**
You let the kid get away, huh?
**[19:05] ---**
The thing is, there was someone
who came out of there alive.
**[19:10] ---**
The children of the dead casters.
**[19:14] ---**
Hey, let's play a game.
**[19:16] ---**
Hmm?
**[19:16] ---**
Huh? What are you talking about?
**[19:18] ---**
If you win, I'll step aside,
**[19:20] ---**
and I'll even catch that kid
from earlier for you.
**[19:26] ---**
Guess what it is that I am.
**[19:32] ---**
You know...
**[19:33] ---**
what my name is, don't you?
**[19:37] ---**
Like hell we do, you idio--
**[19:43] ---**
How about you?
**[19:47] ---**
Guess what I am.
**[19:52] ---**
If, by some chance, your answer is wrong...
**[19:59] ---**
I'll blow your soul to bits!
**[20:04] ---**
One of them is even now
in the League, as a caster.
**[20:09] ---**
The other one...
**[20:11] ---**
Leo!
**[20:14] ---**
Hey!
**[20:15] ---**
You're here.
**[20:16] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[20:17] ---**
One of my superiors at work
got sick from eating sushi.
**[20:21] ---**
Not me. I can't eat raw fish.
**[20:25] ---**
Someone else. One whose
unlucky number today was tuna.
**[20:29] ---**
What do you mean?
Tuna isn't a number, you know.
**[20:32] ---**
She's right, Leo. The tuna is not at fault.
**[20:36] ---**
The problem always lies primarily with him.
**[20:37] ---**
Should have just had sushi in the first place...
**[20:42] ---**
That's funny!
You must be good friends, right?
**[20:45] ---**
No, we are not.
**[20:45] ---**
Right?
**[20:48] ---**
I'll stop by his room and then head home.
**[20:51] ---**
I'll peek in on my way home, too.
**[20:53] ---**
Goodbye, Mr. Zed.
**[20:55] ---**
Right.
**[20:59] ---**
Leo...
**[21:01] ---**
I'll see you tomorrow.
**[21:03] ---**
Right.
**[21:16] ---**
Leo!
**[21:27] ---**
This is the first time
I've ever seen you in the chapel.
**[21:32] ---**
That's because this place
is for people to pray in.
**[21:36] ---**
It's not natural for me to be here.
**[21:39] ---**
Hmm...
**[21:44] ---**
Does it have something
to do with you being a ghost?
**[21:51] ---**
Yeah.
**[21:54] ---**
But right now,
I feel a little bit like praying...
**[21:59] ---**
for your sake.
**[22:02] ---**
Don't lie.
**[22:05] ---**
The reason you want to pray
is for your own sake, right?
**[22:11] ---**
After everything that's happened,
are you *still* hoping for salvation?
**[22:17] ---**
Humans are so full of arrogance.
**[22:20] ---**
Black...?
**[22:24] ---**
The All-seeing Eyes of the Gods...
**[22:31] ---**
I want you to give me... your eyes.
**[22:36] ---**
*Accustomed to the supernatural
disaster-like madness,*
**[22:39] ---**
*I mistake my daily life for peace*
**[22:42] ---**
*As this rambling coaster
jolts me back and forth,*
**[22:46] ---**
*what is it that I mustn't lose sight of?*
**[22:50] ---**
*Swallowed up by the concept
of egalitarian fundamentalism,*
**[22:53] ---**
*feels like even my soul is so much et cetera*
**[22:57] ---**
*Have to clearly state what
you love and what you hate*
**[23:01] ---**
*or you're not all that different than a dummy*
**[23:04] ---**
*Ah, crowds of people
walking the streets at night*
**[23:08] ---**
*some seem to be so happy,
some seem to be so lonely*
**[23:12] ---**
*The contrast jumps around the music staff*
**[23:17] ---**
*creating the song and rhythm*
**[23:19] ---**
*Marmalade and sugar song,
peanuts and bitter step*
**[23:23] ---**
*So sweet and then so acrid,
it makes my head spin*
**[23:26] ---**
*Let's head south-southwest
and keep this party going*
**[23:30] ---**
*to make it a night
that will astonish the world*
**[23:34] ---**
*I feel fantastic, a chain of reflections*

Hey! It's the sonic speed monkey, Sonic!
**[24:10] ---**
As it happens, Leo is busy
talking on the phone...
**[24:13] ---**
but I can hear his voice
on the radio in front of me!
**[24:18] ---**
Hm?
**[24:19] ---**
Leo is on the phone looking back
on everything that's happened
**[24:21] ---**
since he came to Hellsalem's Lot?
**[24:24] ---**
And what's this? He's asking for advice?
**[24:26] ---**
I thought we were friends!
At times like this, turn to ME!

**[00:08] ---**
I have a family that I love.
**[00:11] ---**
Benjamin Macbeth...
**[00:13] ---**
Emma Macbeth...
**[00:15] ---**
William Macbeth...
**[00:17] ---**
They have it.
**[00:19] ---**
Mary Macbeth...
**[00:21] ---**
She doesn't have it.
**[00:24] ---**
The sole blemish that appears
within the Macbeth family would be...
**[00:29] ---**
me.
**[00:31] ---**
*Upon opening the door,
I found a twisted noontime evening*
**[00:35] ---**
*How did I get home yesterday?
My body's the only thing I'm sure of*
**[00:40] ---**
*Good morning; I'll carry on
with being lost once more*
**[00:44] ---**
*among the unknown sights
that have become so familiar*
**[00:58] ---**
*After I figured all was lost,
I've been getting by somehow,*
**[01:02] ---**
*somewhat embarrassed to
be tough enough to still be alive*
**[01:07] ---**
*I know what I have to do, even if I forget*
**[01:11] ---**
*Otherwise, things become so agonizing*
**[01:16] ---**
*I look up to see someone with big black eyes*
**[01:21] ---**
*It's because I saw you
that this light came to be*
**[01:25] ---**
*Surrounded by a world
painted in colors of my choosing,*
**[01:30] ---**
*where do I find meaning in
the scars I could not choose?*
**[01:34] ---**
*In the heart of a world
where only I am the hero,*
**[01:39] ---**
*I'm onstage, appearing
in every scene until the end*
**[01:43] ---**
*What do I do? I can't
even pretend to be empty*
**[01:48] ---**
*Hello, hi there, here I am*
**[01:53] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[02:01] ---**
For generations,
**[02:03] ---**
our family was
born having "psychic powers,"
**[02:06] ---**
and it has been a family line
of people called "casters,"
**[02:09] ---**
who used their powers to
serve the world and other people.
**[02:12] ---**
In my family, both Papa and Mama
are descended from a line of casters,
**[02:17] ---**
meaning I, who was born a thoroughbred,
**[02:20] ---**
am as bad as it gets.
**[02:24] ---**
How miserable is it for someone
to be born into such a household
**[02:28] ---**
without the slightest hint of powers?
**[02:30] ---**
There's nothing else
to call it but having no luck.
**[02:34] ---**
I put myself on trial.
**[02:37] ---**
Mary Macbeth!
**[02:39] ---**
Guilty!
**[02:40] ---**
However...
**[02:41] ---**
Objection!
**[02:43] ---**
She is innocent.
**[02:45] ---**
I have these parents.
**[02:47] ---**
For what reason?
**[02:48] ---**
Isn't it obvious?
**[02:50] ---**
You were born into
this world as our little girl.
**[02:53] ---**
Can there be any other reason than that?
**[02:56] ---**
Yeah, yeah.
**[02:57] ---**
That's plenty enough reason.
**[02:58] ---**
Oh, look at those eyes!
They're just like emeralds!
**[03:02] ---**
Amazing!
**[03:02] ---**
Pity?
**[03:04] ---**
No. They're serious.
**[03:04] ---**
You're our little treasure! You're so cute!
**[03:06] ---**
They were just putting me down
**[03:06] ---**
You're so cute!
**[03:08] ---**
as misbegotten all the more.
***SIGN*** You're so cute!
**[03:11] ---**
Their love just made me feel even more miserable.
**[03:17] ---**
Add to that...
**[03:17] ---**
You're so cute!
**[03:21] ---**
...my big brother.
**[03:21] ---**
He took it! He took it!
**[03:29] ---**
Papa! Will's crying!
**[03:37] ---**
Wuss!
**[03:38] ---**
Four-eyes!
**[03:40] ---**
Crybaby!
**[03:41] ---**
My twin brother, born at the same time I was,
**[03:41] ---**
Pansy!
**[03:42] ---**
Four-eyes!
**[03:43] ---**
possessed enough power for the both of us.
**[03:48] ---**
The grown-ups had high
expectations of him, as well.
**[03:52] ---**
And yet... he completely
stopped using his power.
**[04:01] ---**
Why don't you fight back?
**[04:05] ---**
There's no reason for you
to always get beat up, right?
**[04:08] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[04:09] ---**
Putting up with it just means
more pain for you, you know.
**[04:13] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[04:15] ---**
But I'm not good at fighting.
**[04:19] ---**
Then you should use it!
**[04:22] ---**
Psychic power!
**[04:25] ---**
You're just sitting on a gold mine!
**[04:30] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[04:31] ---**
Why are you apologizing?!
**[04:33] ---**
Huh?
**[04:33] ---**
It's okay! You don't have to apologize!
**[04:35] ---**
But make sure you do it!
I can't bear to watch!
**[04:41] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[04:45] ---**
Never mind.
**[04:48] ---**
Just do whatever you want to.
**[04:52] ---**
Mary!
**[04:54] ---**
Um... Thank you.
**[04:56] ---**
Huh?
**[04:58] ---**
I can't help but be scared.
**[05:02] ---**
Mary, you're strong. I envy you.
**[05:05] ---**
What is that? A wisecrack?
**[05:07] ---**
Eh?!
**[05:08] ---**
What does he mean, scared?
**[05:11] ---**
Psychic powers don't seem
to be that handy a thing.
**[05:15] ---**
Using them tires you out,
**[05:17] ---**
and if you're reckless,
it even shortens your life.
**[05:23] ---**
Scanning is super-exhausting.
**[05:29] ---**
Could that be what my brother is afraid of?
**[05:34] ---**
Or is he simply a wimp?
**[05:37] ---**
It's not that at all.
**[05:40] ---**
You don't have to worry.
Will is a strong boy. He'll be fine.
**[05:44] ---**
It's not that I'm worried.
**[05:47] ---**
Mary, you're just like your mom--scary--
**[05:50] ---**
I mean, strong--so it
may appear that way to you.
**[05:56] ---**
I think that having a
means available, but not using it,
**[05:59] ---**
is an incredibly brave choice to make.
**[06:03] ---**
But then, you know,
**[06:05] ---**
he doesn't have to
force himself to be a caster.
**[06:08] ---**
There are other paths that he can take.
**[06:12] ---**
If that's what Will has considered
and decided, then what's wrong with that?
**[06:17] ---**
On the other hand, don't you remember?
**[06:21] ---**
What happened to make Will
the way he is now?
**[06:23] ---**
Hmm?
**[06:27] ---**
No, I don't.
**[06:28] ---**
Eh? It was a huge deal,
and raised quite a stir.
**[06:33] ---**
Will...
**[06:35] ---**
listen to this. Mary just said...
**[06:39] ---**
It's not that important, really!
**[06:45] ---**
What does he mean, not become a caster?
**[06:48] ---**
My usually normal Papa and Mama...
**[06:51] ---**
Bye.
**[06:53] ---**
...made me proud whenever
they left to save the world from peril,
**[06:58] ---**
and more than anything,
I was downright envious of them,
**[07:00] ---**
using their natural-born gifts
as weapons, and risking their lives.
**[07:06] ---**
Everyone dies at some point,
whether they have powers or not.
**[07:10] ---**
That being so, you have to think about
what you'll accomplish while you're alive.
**[07:17] ---**
Especially me, being who I was.
**[07:20] ---**
There must be something...
**[07:30] ---**
Where did you find that camera?
**[07:32] ---**
In the closet. Can I keep it?
**[07:35] ---**
Why not? It's Papa's.
**[07:39] ---**
Do you like it?
**[07:40] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[07:43] ---**
Well, I should get dinner started.
**[07:50] ---**
You sure have taken a lot, huh?
**[07:52] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[07:54] ---**
Aren't there any pictures of you, Mary?
**[07:56] ---**
Mm-mm. That's not what this is about.
**[08:00] ---**
It's not that I particularly
liked photography, or anything.
**[08:06] ---**
Then, what *is* it about?
**[08:09] ---**
It's just that if I were
to die in the next instant,
**[08:12] ---**
whatever I had taken
would certainly remain behind.
**[08:16] ---**
I thought that made it nice and simple.
**[08:21] ---**
That's all it was.
**[08:26] ---**
Little sister!
**[08:27] ---**
Nice toy you've got there, isn't it?
**[08:30] ---**
Isn't it?!
**[08:31] ---**
Let us borrow it, why don't you?
**[08:33] ---**
Give it over!
**[08:36] ---**
Sure thing.
**[08:44] ---**
Hold it!
**[08:47] ---**
That camera is my sister's!
**[08:50] ---**
Give it back!
**[08:51] ---**
Huh?
**[08:53] ---**
Your sister's the one who lent it to us.
**[08:56] ---**
Even so, give it back!
**[08:58] ---**
It's something precious!
**[09:01] ---**
Hmm?
**[09:02] ---**
You bet.
**[09:10] ---**
Got it!
**[09:20] ---**
Mary...
**[09:24] ---**
What are you doing?
**[09:26] ---**
Making sure you're still alive.
**[09:31] ---**
Oh.
**[09:33] ---**
Where's Mama?
**[09:34] ---**
On the phone.
**[09:39] ---**
Why would you jump into the river?
**[09:42] ---**
I was trying to get the camera.
**[09:45] ---**
But I blew it, huh?
**[09:49] ---**
I'm sorry. You liked it, right?
**[09:54] ---**
If they hadn't saved you,
you could have died.
**[09:59] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[10:01] ---**
That was dangerous, huh?
I'll have to thank them.
**[10:05] ---**
What's your problem?!
**[10:08] ---**
What is this?! You act like
it happened to someone else!
**[10:11] ---**
I hate you, Will!
**[10:13] ---**
You always have that look on your face,
like you don't get what's going on!
**[10:17] ---**
I don't care about the camera!
**[10:20] ---**
The pictures were just a placebo!
**[10:25] ---**
Will, you've got your power, don't you?!
**[10:28] ---**
Use your psychic power,
or whatever else, to protect yourself!
**[10:35] ---**
If you'd died...
**[10:38] ---**
If you really had died...
**[10:43] ---**
Will...
**[10:46] ---**
if you'd died...
**[10:49] ---**
I couldn't bear it!
**[11:14] ---**
Hey, what's the matter?!
Why are you bawling?!
**[11:21] ---**
Long ago...
**[11:23] ---**
I broke that mudball that you made, Mary.
**[11:30] ---**
It was a very well-made ball, too.
You seemed so happy.
**[11:36] ---**
I think you probably wanted me
to say how good it was.
**[11:41] ---**
But I was so frustrated,
**[11:44] ---**
I couldn't help but destroy it.
**[11:48] ---**
So childish.
**[11:49] ---**
Well, we *were* just children.
**[11:53] ---**
I was sure you were going to cry.
**[11:58] ---**
But you just stood there in a daze,
**[12:02] ---**
and started making another ball, right away.
**[12:08] ---**
I became so embarrassed.
It felt like you were leaving me behind.
**[12:15] ---**
I grew afraid to use my powers in that way.
**[12:20] ---**
So at that moment, I made up my mind.
**[12:23] ---**
Until I became strong on my own,
**[12:26] ---**
I wasn't going to use my psychic powers.
**[12:32] ---**
So what was the big stir?
**[12:34] ---**
Huh?
**[12:35] ---**
Papa said there was a big deal made.
**[12:39] ---**
Ah. After that, I started crying.
**[12:43] ---**
Hmm.
**[13:06] ---**
Which is why...
**[13:09] ---**
I don't want you
calling photography a placebo.
**[13:15] ---**
You took that many pictures because
you thought they were good, right?
**[13:20] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[13:22] ---**
But...
**[13:23] ---**
I know!
**[13:25] ---**
Look at this!
**[13:31] ---**
That's awful, right?!
I took one, too, but I'm terrible at it!
**[13:36] ---**
I can't do it as well as you, Mary!
**[13:42] ---**
Mary! I-I'm sorry!
**[13:45] ---**
You're right! Having your picture
taken like this could be hurtful, huh?
**[13:50] ---**
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have
done it. So don't cry--
**[13:59] ---**
Mary...
**[14:05] ---**
Thank you,
**[14:06] ---**
Big Brother.
**[14:13] ---**
Right back at you,
**[14:15] ---**
sister.
**[14:20] ---**
Still, if you're going to be a caster,
**[14:22] ---**
you have to quit slacking,
and start practicing.
**[14:25] ---**
Papa and Mama are both privately nervous
about what you're going to do, Will.
**[14:30] ---**
Hmm...
**[14:33] ---**
I'm not sure I'm cut out for it.
**[14:36] ---**
What are you talking about? You're perfect!
**[14:39] ---**
Papa... Mama...!
**[14:42] ---**
Will...!
**[14:48] ---**
Whenever you get anxious about
being alone, I'll come with you.
**[15:17] ---**
Black!
**[15:18] ---**
White...
**[15:21] ---**
White!
**[15:22] ---**
Stay back! Don't come near here!
**[15:28] ---**
Besides, Mama said something--
**[15:31] ---**
What a caster needs isn't strength
in fighting or physical stature.
**[15:37] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[15:43] ---**
I'll let you have my body!
**[15:46] ---**
So don't do anything to my sister!
**[15:51] ---**
I'm begging you.
**[15:56] ---**
Do *nothing* to my sister!
**[16:00] ---**
If you must take...
**[16:03] ---**
then take from me!
**[16:06] ---**
What they really do need...
**[16:09] ---**
is something you've always had, Will.
**[16:19] ---**
I'm sorry, Leo.
**[16:26] ---**
I have to get Will back from him.
**[16:39] ---**
In order for me to do that,
**[16:42] ---**
you are absolutely essential.
**[16:57] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[17:00] ---**
I can't go on living in a world...
**[17:02] ---**
that he...
**[17:06] ---**
isn't in.
**[17:21] ---**
You are absolutely correct, sister.
**[17:26] ---**
We will all die, someday.
**[17:29] ---**
Death! Oh, death!
**[17:33] ---**
How fleeting a thing
**[17:35] ---**
is a limited life, the destiny of man.
**[17:43] ---**
However, I also think this:
**[17:47] ---**
Death is the privilege of the living.
**[17:50] ---**
A destiny outside reason,
continually roving on, evermore.
**[17:55] ---**
How fleeting a thing it is.
**[17:59] ---**
One cannot live and forget about death.
**[18:03] ---**
The despair that is me, forgotten by death,
**[18:08] ---**
can at least embrace...
**[18:11] ---**
my yearning at twilight, and sleep.
**[18:18] ---**
Yo!
**[18:19] ---**
You awake, brother?
**[18:23] ---**
Then let's get started, already...
**[18:26] ---**
with the end!
**[19:16] ---**
Sonic?!
**[19:17] ---**
But why...?
**[19:22] ---**
Leo?
**[19:25] ---**
You're looking for him?
**[19:57] ---**
Hey, Sonic...
**[20:01] ---**
...please...
**[20:07] ---**
...find Leo...
**[20:27] ---**
It's not your lucky day, is it,
holder of the All-seeing Eyes of the Gods?
**[20:34] ---**
After having all that hassle forced on you,
**[20:38] ---**
to now even be possessed by a ghost...
**[20:44] ---**
She's not human.
**[20:49] ---**
The barrier in place of her heart
is what's keeping her alive now.
**[20:56] ---**
A last-ditch strategy her parents
used to save the dying little brat.
**[21:02] ---**
Lingering affection.
**[21:04] ---**
You and I...
**[21:07] ---**
are being kept alive by it.
**[21:11] ---**
You're not the only one
who lost hope at the time.
**[21:15] ---**
The same is true of me.
**[21:20] ---**
You understand, don't you, Mary Macbeth?
**[21:26] ---**
If there is an effective means
you can use to achieve your goal...
**[21:32] ---**
...then you use it, no matter what it is.
**[21:38] ---**
Farewell, Mother Mary.
**[21:43] ---**
I loved you.
**[21:47] ---**
And now, the Second Collapse begins.
**[21:51] ---**
Imagine, him choosing today, of all days.
**[21:54] ---**
It's so overly droll that it
instead becomes unamusing.
**[21:59] ---**
Still,
**[22:01] ---**
it's a bit too dark in there...
**[22:03] ---**
to find the way home, isn't it?
**[22:11] ---**
*Accustomed to the supernatural
disaster-like madness,*
**[22:14] ---**
*I mistake my daily life for peace*
**[22:17] ---**
*As this rambling coaster
jolts me back and forth,*
**[22:21] ---**
*what is it that I mustn't lose sight of?*
**[22:25] ---**
*Swallowed up by the concept
of egalitarian fundamentalism,*
**[22:28] ---**
*feels like even my soul is so much et cetera*
**[22:32] ---**
*Have to clearly state what
you love and what you hate*
**[22:36] ---**
*or you're not all that different than a dummy*
**[22:39] ---**
*Ah, crowds of people
walking the streets at night*
**[22:43] ---**
*some seem to be so happy,
some seem to be so lonely*
**[22:47] ---**
*The contrast jumps around the music staff*
**[22:52] ---**
*creating the song and rhythm*
**[22:54] ---**
*Marmalade and sugar song,
peanuts and bitter step*
**[22:58] ---**
*So sweet and then so acrid,
it makes my head spin*
**[23:01] ---**
*Let's head south-southwest
and keep this party going*
**[23:05] ---**
*to make it a night
that will astonish the world*
**[23:09] ---**
*I feel fantastic, a chain of reflections*
**[23:16] ---**
*Marmalade and sugar song,
peanuts and bitter step*
**[23:19] ---**
*So sweet and then so acrid,
it makes my head spin*
**[23:23] ---**
*Let's head south-southwest
and keep this party going*
**[23:27] ---**
*to make it a night
that will astonish the world*
**[23:31] ---**
*I feel fantastic,
the chain of reflections goes on*
**[23:35] ---**
*From one good time,
to a problem, to another good time*
**[23:41] ---**
Yo, pumpkin-heads!
**[23:44] ---**
Are you enjoying yourselves?
Playing any tricks? Are they going well?
**[23:48] ---**
I am the "King of Despair."
**[23:50] ---**
I've prepared an
extra-special show, just for today.
**[23:54] ---**
I would like for you all to enjoy it
very much, as one of the performers.
**[23:59] ---**
The program will be... let's see...
**[24:03] ---**
"Sympathy for the Devil."
**[24:06] ---**
I have a younger sister.
**[24:08] ---**
One day, my brave, noble, charming sister
**[24:12] ---**
took my place and lost her eyesight.
**[24:16] ---**
The world that I now see with her eyes
**[24:19] ---**
is stunningly beautiful, and cruel,
**[24:23] ---**
and now that I have closed my eyes, it shines.
**[24:27] ---**
Next time on Blood Blockade Battlefront:
**[24:29] ---**
"Hello, world!"
**[24:31] ---**
Michella,
**[24:32] ---**
there's something
I have to tell you.
**[24:35] ---**

**[00:09] ---**
Ever since that day, I've been
having these dreams, again and again.
**[00:13] ---**
Unshakeable terror. Repeated frustrations.
**[00:17] ---**
Days of remorse and penitence
that continue on within my dreams.
**[00:23] ---**
As I try to stand still, waiting for it to pass,
**[00:26] ---**
still unable to keep from trembling, I wake up,
**[00:30] ---**
and without finding any answers,
**[00:32] ---**
once again, today, I remain in the bad dream.
**[00:37] ---**
I was having a dream.
**[00:40] ---**
It was of the peaceful past.
**[00:42] ---**
Days that were fulfilled.
**[00:44] ---**
Gentle memories.
**[00:47] ---**
The memories were vivid,
despite being long passed,
**[00:51] ---**
and there's no way
I'd allow them to be forgotten.
**[00:55] ---**
Even without waking up, I know...
**[00:57] ---**
that this is just reality,
**[01:00] ---**
and there's nothing I can do about it.
**[01:09] ---**
The loneliness that I wanted to share,
the courage I received, the joy...
**[01:14] ---**
the effortlessly difficult-to-shake
hatred and sadness...
**[01:20] ---**
If I'm to stand against
the reality closing in on me,
**[01:24] ---**
what, exactly, can I do?
**[01:29] ---**
Welcome home! You've reached
the final destination of your life!
**[01:34] ---**
Do you know where this is,
**[01:36] ---**
my brand-new little corpse?
**[01:44] ---**
What do you know, you *are* alive,
aren't you? Don't lie to me!
**[01:51] ---**
I'm dead!
**[01:51] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
**[01:57] ---**
What exactly can I do?
**[02:04] ---**
The fog is incredible, isn't it, Mr. Guabara?
**[02:09] ---**
Yes!
**[02:10] ---**
It's impossible to see anything,
isn't it, Mr. Guabara?
**[02:14] ---**
Yes!
**[02:16] ---**
Is, as the young man who calls himself
"The King of Despair" proclaims,
**[02:20] ---**
the "Second Collapse"
now taking place, Mr. Guabara?
**[02:25] ---**
Yes!
**[02:30] ---**
How long are you going to keep smoking?!
**[02:34] ---**
We're looking for Leo, right?
Let's hurry and get going!
**[02:42] ---**
Klaus!
**[02:45] ---**
We have a report from LHOS.
Repairs to the destroyed barrier
**[02:50] ---**
are waiting for the casters
to arrive to initiate.
**[02:54] ---**
There was a formal request for our help
**[02:57] ---**
with the search for the lost final one.
**[03:04] ---**
Is it three years already?
Or has it *only* been three years?
**[03:11] ---**
Either way, it looks like we're
about to see the white darkness again.
**[03:16] ---**
Yahoo!
**[03:20] ---**
Hey, hey, hey, man, what's the big idea?
**[03:23] ---**
It's just like three years ago, isn't it?
**[03:26] ---**
Pipe down.
**[03:27] ---**
Have a little class, Deldro.
**[03:29] ---**
Are we sure Leo is all right?
**[03:32] ---**
I saw the video of what happened, too.
**[03:36] ---**
He's most likely with the enemy, right?
**[03:39] ---**
Once his business is finished,
it's bad news, isn't it?
**[03:43] ---**
No, I'm telling you, he's fine.
**[03:46] ---**
Just watch. The gravitational
changes aren't even here yet.
**[03:51] ---**
Three years ago, there was
that hullabaloo about the whole city
**[03:54] ---**
coming to be directly over the Eternal Hollow.
**[03:58] ---**
The barrier isn't yet...
**[04:00] ---**
...completely destroyed!
**[04:02] ---**
In our estimation, it is probably the last one,
**[04:06] ---**
Mary Macbeth,
**[04:08] ---**
in whom the reason for that lies.
**[04:11] ---**
Is something like that even possible?
**[04:14] ---**
Hmm...
**[04:15] ---**
Barriers come in all shapes and sizes,
depending on the caster's style.
**[04:19] ---**
The same goes for the source of their powers.
**[04:21] ---**
There's nothing to say that among them might
be a means of weaving life itself into them.
**[04:26] ---**
That would be taboo, though.
**[04:29] ---**
At the time of the Collapse,
Mary was likely caught with her parents
**[04:32] ---**
in some sort of happening,
and has lived that way for three years,
**[04:37] ---**
assimilated as part of the barrier.
**[04:41] ---**
If what I just said is true, then she...
**[04:45] ---**
is something not even we have seen before--
**[04:47] ---**
a barrier possessing its own will!
**[04:59] ---**
It's quiet.
**[05:02] ---**
Too quiet.
**[05:09] ---**
Is being within the fog
hampering me? The ghost...
**[05:16] ---**
I have to keep them from finding the kid.
**[05:20] ---**
Damn...
**[05:24] ---**
So sleepy...
**[05:26] ---**
If we assume that the King of Despair is using
**[05:28] ---**
the All-seeing Eyes of the Gods
to look for the barrier...
**[05:31] ---**
He can't kill the kid, can he?
**[05:35] ---**
Whatever the case, nothing is
going to happen without Leonardo.
**[05:39] ---**
We must do whatever it takes to find him!
**[05:41] ---**
Right!
**[05:41] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[05:42] ---**
Come on, get up, get up!
**[05:45] ---**
This is no time to be dead, young man.
**[05:51] ---**
Who are you, exactly?
**[05:54] ---**
It doesn't matter, under the
circumstances, who I am, does it?
**[05:58] ---**
I mean, you can't see me anyway, right?
**[06:01] ---**
Let's say I'm just a passing terrorist.
**[06:05] ---**
I'm just here violating graves, after all.
**[06:09] ---**
I don't understand, are you a friend of Black's?
**[06:12] ---**
Black?
**[06:14] ---**
Oh, you mean that container?
**[06:16] ---**
No.
**[06:19] ---**
I just know who's inside him.
**[06:23] ---**
I take my eyes off of you for a second,
and look how spent you are.
**[06:28] ---**
How can you save the world
if you're that down in the mouth?
**[06:41] ---**
Leonardo Watch,
**[06:43] ---**
the first thing we
have to do is wreck the world.
**[06:55] ---**
Heads? Tails?
**[06:57] ---**
Huh?
**[06:57] ---**
It's a game.
**[06:59] ---**
You've got a look on your face that says
you've got a ton of things you want to ask.
**[07:04] ---**
I'm just saying...
**[07:06] ---**
if you win, I'll tell you anything.
**[07:09] ---**
If you lose... hmm...
**[07:12] ---**
you have to stay here forever?
**[07:13] ---**
Huh?
**[07:14] ---**
Why do you look so relieved?!
**[07:16] ---**
No, I'm not relieved!
**[07:16] ---**
It's not much of a bet that way!
**[07:20] ---**
I just thought, if I lose, you'd kill me,
**[07:23] ---**
so you might say I wasn't expecting it.
**[07:25] ---**
Ah! I'm dead! I'm dead! I'm dead!
**[07:25] ---**
Why would I have to give you any help
**[07:29] ---**
I really am dead!
**[07:29] ---**
for you to die?!
**[07:32] ---**
Think again, will you? Geez...
**[07:34] ---**
Okay.
**[07:36] ---**
Why am I having this terrible sense of dŽj? vu?
**[07:38] ---**
I remember this all too well.
**[07:41] ---**
Well, in the final analysis,
**[07:42] ---**
you're going to stay here and die,
**[07:44] ---**
or you're going to go out and die.
**[07:47] ---**
It will be either one or the other.
**[07:53] ---**
Now, choose, young man.
**[07:57] ---**
Which will it be?
**[08:03] ---**
Aren't you worried about Leo?
**[08:06] ---**
Huh?!
**[08:07] ---**
Why should I have to worry
about that squint-eyed pube-head?
**[08:11] ---**
Well I mean, he's an ordinary person!
**[08:14] ---**
He's just a regular boy,
who only has special eyes.
**[08:21] ---**
Stephen...
**[08:23] ---**
take a hard look.
**[08:27] ---**
There is a light.
**[08:33] ---**
I...
**[08:41] ---**
What was that for, out of the blue?
**[08:46] ---**
Don't *you* go getting the wrong idea!
**[08:51] ---**
We are Libra! Do you know what that means?!
**[08:56] ---**
It means that no matter what,
**[08:58] ---**
our resolve is unbreakable.
**[09:02] ---**
Have we had this conversation before?
**[09:06] ---**
I'm not sure.
**[09:09] ---**
Say, Klaus...
**[09:12] ---**
when I think about
what happened three years ago,
**[09:14] ---**
I honestly do feel despondent.
**[09:17] ---**
Still,
**[09:18] ---**
I don't think that today
will be exactly like that day.
**[09:25] ---**
It's been only three years
since the Great Collapse.
**[09:28] ---**
But for us, this time has unmistakably been...
**[09:34] ---**
the burden of the training
we've put in since that day.
**[09:45] ---**
You're here?
**[09:47] ---**
Are you here to
shake me down for some candy?
**[09:50] ---**
Nope.
**[09:51] ---**
I just came to see you.
**[09:58] ---**
You let the kid get away, didn't you?
**[10:02] ---**
He said they wouldn't play our game.
**[10:05] ---**
No, not with *you*.
**[10:06] ---**
Not with you, either.
**[10:08] ---**
He said that if he we had
something to ask, it wouldn't be to him,
**[10:11] ---**
and that he couldn't stay there long,
so he wasn't playing the game.
**[10:18] ---**
That's normal, huh?
**[10:18] ---**
Yeah, it's normal!
**[10:21] ---**
You should have been good
and rolled him over.
**[10:25] ---**
But that wouldn't
have been any fun, you know?
**[10:29] ---**
Not for you.
**[10:32] ---**
For you, either, right?
**[10:34] ---**
Ow!
**[10:35] ---**
What are you so lost
in thought over, at a time like this?
**[10:37] ---**
K.K...
**[10:39] ---**
Man, you older fellas...
**[10:43] ---**
I located where the video was taken.
**[10:46] ---**
Saint Alanyad Central Hospital's
disused cemetery.
**[10:49] ---**
Hey!
**[10:50] ---**
Why do you have to make your appearance
on top of my head, she-bitch?!
**[10:52] ---**
Get down from there, you! Get down!
**[10:52] ---**
You were just talking about resolve,
**[10:54] ---**
but you're not even sure of your
own footing, are you, you dumb monkey?
**[10:59] ---**
Who needs you?!
**[11:00] ---**
Easy!
**[11:08] ---**
I wonder if I really was relieved...
**[11:13] ---**
I'm sorry, Mr. Klaus.
**[11:16] ---**
I really don't see very much light.
**[11:21] ---**
Three years ago,
**[11:23] ---**
this is where I saw the collapse, too.
**[11:28] ---**
It was beautiful.
**[11:31] ---**
It was a sight that
turns one's values and concepts,
**[11:34] ---**
and all of the emotions
that frame a person upside down.
**[11:40] ---**
The exaltation that confirms
that your wishes still lie ahead.
**[11:48] ---**
I had a dream.
**[11:50] ---**
We were just out of luck--
me, these guys, those two casters...
**[11:57] ---**
"Fallen."
**[11:59] ---**
"Blue." "Devil." "King of Despair."
**[12:03] ---**
You sure have a lot of names, "Watchman."
**[12:11] ---**
You, who were a bystander ever since Rome,
**[12:14] ---**
brought to a standstill by the Great Collapse.
**[12:18] ---**
If you're going to do it, enjoy it.
**[12:21] ---**
What you need is a little more "nonsense."
**[12:30] ---**
Wah! Huh?
**[12:38] ---**
He's got quite a bit of sass, huh?
**[12:42] ---**
He'll be alive, as long as he's not dead.
**[12:44] ---**
Yeah...
**[12:48] ---**
He thinks I'm short on nonsense, does he?
**[12:53] ---**
Don't be ridiculous.
**[12:57] ---**
Our entire existence...
**[12:59] ---**
is the very definition of absurdity, isn't it?
**[13:17] ---**
What the hell?!
**[13:20] ---**
An enemy attack!
**[13:20] ---**
I don't know!
**[13:21] ---**
Is this an enemy attack?
**[13:22] ---**
But this looks pretty dicey!
**[13:31] ---**
This really is...
**[13:36] ---**
...just a game.
**[13:41] ---**
What is this?
**[13:54] ---**
Where are they coming from?!
**[13:55] ---**
There's no end to them!
**[13:58] ---**
What do we do, Klaus?
**[14:00] ---**
Advise all group members--
**[14:04] ---**
In addition to securing Leonardo,
**[14:06] ---**
exterminate all ghouls in the city!
**[14:09] ---**
What are those? They're not very appealing.
**[14:13] ---**
You don't get it, do you, Aligura?
**[14:16] ---**
Zombies are a must
when it comes to entertainment!
**[14:50] ---**
They're just byproducts of this,
meant to kill time, aren't they?
**[14:54] ---**
Of course!
**[14:56] ---**
Seeing as how we're alive,
we need something to entertain us!
**[15:00] ---**
Yay!!
**[15:30] ---**
Gilbert...
**[15:31] ---**
Doctor...!
**[15:33] ---**
This is not good!
**[15:35] ---**
This has to be William! Or rather, that king?
**[15:39] ---**
King of Despair.
**[15:39] ---**
This is his doing, isn't it?!
**[15:41] ---**
Calm down, you fool!
**[15:43] ---**
If they're allowed to
get away with stuff like this,
**[15:45] ---**
he'll be dead before Klaus can get there.
**[15:50] ---**
Geez, is this one of *those* cases?
Can I step out for a minute?
**[15:54] ---**
As the teleporter?
**[15:56] ---**
What will your going there do?
**[15:57] ---**
I'm just going!
I'm just the teleporter, after all!
**[16:00] ---**
Never mind!
**[16:02] ---**
Let Klaus take care of Will.
**[16:05] ---**
We're going to accomplish
the greatest good right here.
**[16:13] ---**
Come on, Klaus.
**[16:16] ---**
A world where a child can
call himself the King of Despair...
**[16:20] ---**
is one that is far too sad.
**[16:41] ---**
What is that?
**[16:43] ---**
Nobody told me that thing
was going to be there.
**[17:03] ---**
Sonic?!
**[17:05] ---**
You startled me!
**[17:07] ---**
Huh? You found that for me? Thank--
**[17:13] ---**
I'm begging you...
**[17:16] ---**
please... help Leo...
**[17:20] ---**
He has to be in...
Central Hospital's cemetery...
**[17:24] ---**
Is that White?
**[17:26] ---**
Please... don't... let Leo die...
**[17:34] ---**
You should deliver this
to Mr. Klaus and the others.
**[17:42] ---**
Then again, I couldn't give it up,
even if it means another trip to the hospital.
**[17:48] ---**
Sorry, Sonic.
**[17:50] ---**
Would you hold onto that a little longer?
**[17:55] ---**
I guess I really do... have to be going!
**[18:09] ---**
All barriers stabilizing.
**[18:11] ---**
Once the last one is discovered and repaired,
**[18:13] ---**
we can link them immediately!
**[18:15] ---**
And so--
**[18:15] ---**
And so--
**[18:16] ---**
Hang in there Doctor!
**[18:16] ---**
One more to go! One more to go!
**[18:17] ---**
Hurry and find it!
**[18:17] ---**
One more to go! One more to go!
**[18:28] ---**
Found you!
**[18:29] ---**
Leonardo!
**[18:40] ---**
If it's not one thing, it's another.
**[18:42] ---**
I just can't catch a break, can I?
**[18:43] ---**
My jeep!
**[18:44] ---**
Mr. Abrams...
**[18:46] ---**
We've been looking for you.
**[18:46] ---**
Now how am I supposed to get around?!
**[18:49] ---**
I'm so glad to see you're okay.
**[18:51] ---**
Right...
**[18:52] ---**
This may surprise you, but listen carefully.
**[18:55] ---**
Your girlfriend is not human.
**[18:59] ---**
She's a barrier, right?
**[19:00] ---**
You knew?
**[19:02] ---**
Then that speeds things along.
**[19:04] ---**
She's probably the one
underpinning this emergency.
**[19:09] ---**
But there's no telling
how long that will hold out.
**[19:12] ---**
So before that can happen...
**[19:14] ---**
I just have to find White, right?
**[19:18] ---**
It's all right. I can do that!
**[19:21] ---**
You dumbass!
**[19:21] ---**
And your eyes?
**[19:22] ---**
I'll protect them with my life!
**[19:32] ---**
Eh?!
**[19:32] ---**
Yoo-hoo!
**[19:34] ---**
Hummer?!
**[19:35] ---**
I heard. You're heading as far
as the barrier, right? Where is it?
**[19:40] ---**
Probably on top of that thing.
**[19:43] ---**
That's a bit far, huh? I'll give you a hand.
**[19:48] ---**
Full-power Hammer Throw!!
**[19:49] ---**
Full-power Hammer Throw
**[19:56] ---**
Chain?!
**[19:57] ---**
You're looking well.
**[19:59] ---**
Thank goodness.
**[20:01] ---**
You weren't, by any chance, concerned--
**[20:03] ---**
Oh, that's not good.
**[20:06] ---**
I can vanish, though, so I'll be fine.
**[20:09] ---**
Nice seeing you before the end.
**[20:10] ---**
How can you say something like that?!
**[20:16] ---**
Yes, I can confirm that Leo is still alive.
**[20:19] ---**
Shinatobe!
**[20:20] ---**
Wind-weaving
**[20:21] ---**
Wind-weaving!
**[20:28] ---**
Leo!
**[20:31] ---**
Are you okay?
**[20:31] ---**
Thank you very much!
**[20:34] ---**
Huh?
**[20:35] ---**
Leo!
**[20:39] ---**
Unbelievable. You mean,
you were really planning to run there?
**[20:44] ---**
Through this amusement park
out of a nightmare? All alone?
**[20:49] ---**
Nothing doing.
**[20:50] ---**
That's crazy.
**[20:51] ---**
But the Hellsalem's Lot
that I've known up to now
**[20:55] ---**
has been an amusement park
of abnormality every day.
**[21:05] ---**
I'm glad I met all of you.
**[21:11] ---**
Thanks to these last few months
**[21:14] ---**
I can now move forward.
**[21:16] ---**
Huh?
**[21:22] ---**
Anger
**[21:23] ---**
Leo...
**[21:25] ---**
That's a completely different matter than this.
**[21:28] ---**
He's right.
**[21:29] ---**
Honestly, I'd have to say you're being reckless,
**[21:31] ---**
and I don't agree with you one iota.
**[21:33] ---**
That, too.
**[21:36] ---**
So consider this
an assessment from a friend--
**[21:42] ---**
You really are just a normal boy,
exactly the way you think you are.
**[21:48] ---**
Normally kind, normally cheerful,
and normally nosy,
**[21:54] ---**
with a strong sense of right and wrong,
consideration for your friends, and integrity.
**[21:59] ---**
You may be blind to this,
**[22:01] ---**
but what you call normal, the rest of the world
**[22:05] ---**
would call courageous and high-minded.
**[22:08] ---**
It's because you are who you are
**[22:10] ---**
that you don't think twice about
the danger of running to your friends,
**[22:15] ---**
because I'm sure that's normal to you, isn't it?
**[22:18] ---**
Leo...
**[22:20] ---**
see you later.
**[22:21] ---**
Good luck!
**[22:55] ---**
I take it you're the King of Despair,
one of the Thirteen Kings.
**[23:00] ---**
What if I am, Klaus V Reinherz?
**[23:05] ---**
This is the first time we're meeting, isn't it?
**[23:07] ---**
How do you do? Now get lost.
I'm not waiting for you.
**[23:14] ---**
I did not come here to see you, either.
**[23:19] ---**
William Macbeth--
**[23:21] ---**
Where is he?
**[23:31] ---**
Every now and again, they always show up--
**[23:34] ---**
people of the sort that you are.
**[23:37] ---**
There was that one movie, remember?
**[23:39] ---**
The one where the kid used psychic powers.
**[23:42] ---**
You wouldn't be averse if I wanted
to say it was "The Shining," right?
**[24:01] ---**
It's a game, hero...
**[24:04] ---**
You have to protect me from myself...
**[24:10] ---**
With that well-worn "hope" of yours...
**[25:17] ---**
Assistance requests
from zones A-3, C-1, and E-5!
**[25:20] ---**
Okay! Onto the next place,
right away! The next place!
**[25:24] ---**
Mm-hmm...
**[25:28] ---**
The way he keeps moving straight
ahead kind of reminds me of someone.
**[25:51] ---**
Humans are so tragic.
**[25:54] ---**
Much too innocent
and earnest to be called fools.
**[25:59] ---**
I guess that's why, even after all this time,
**[26:02] ---**
I still remain captive to you.
**[26:07] ---**
I have, by no means,
**[26:11] ---**
given up on you.
**[26:20] ---**
We can always play a board game sometime.
**[26:23] ---**
If you cannot see your way to that,
**[26:26] ---**
then I have no other choice
right now but to put you to sleep.
**[26:31] ---**
You're using me to vent, aren't you?
**[26:37] ---**
The collapse? No, the All-seeing Eyes kid?
**[26:42] ---**
Why should you have to
carry the burden of him, as well?
**[26:46] ---**
He's got some nerve.
**[26:51] ---**
As you said to me a moment ago,
**[26:55] ---**
I have...
**[26:57] ---**
a law and a dignity
to which I must adhere.
**[27:02] ---**
"Shining."
**[27:04] ---**
As long as you desire the light,
you cannot kill him.
**[27:09] ---**
It is precisely because you desire hope
**[27:13] ---**
that you sought him out, didn't you?
**[27:21] ---**
You've...
**[27:23] ---**
got a surprisingly smooth tongue, don't you?
**[27:33] ---**
Don't talk to me as though
you know everything, human!
**[27:39] ---**
I will now apply my...
**[27:45] ---**
Brain Grid Blood Battle Technique!
**[27:50] ---**
Go ahead and save me from myself,
**[27:53] ---**
hero!
**[27:59] ---**
Shuffle!
**[28:00] ---**
Huh?!
**[28:02] ---**
What just happened?! Now, of all times!
**[28:05] ---**
Whoa, time out, time out, time out!
**[28:08] ---**
I'm finished.
**[28:10] ---**
What are you doing,
inches from death out here?
**[28:15] ---**
Blade One...
**[28:17] ---**
Homuramaru
**[28:18] ---**
Oopsie-daisy!
**[28:21] ---**
Huh?
**[28:22] ---**
Seven Hells!
**[28:25] ---**
Seven Hells
**[28:28] ---**
Nailed it.
**[28:30] ---**
The... hell you did!
**[28:31] ---**
Off-the-Handle Interjection
**[28:34] ---**
You seriously nearly killed me!
**[28:36] ---**
Give some thought to dialing it back a bit!
**[28:40] ---**
What?! You're perfectly fine, aren't you?
**[28:43] ---**
Stop making trouble for everyone, baldy.
**[28:45] ---**
Who are you calling baldy?
**[28:47] ---**
And I am not fine.
I mean, just a minute ago, my eye--
**[28:50] ---**
--My eye!!
**[28:51] ---**
You sure make a lot of noise, pal.
**[28:54] ---**
What do I do?
**[28:55] ---**
There's nothing to it, is there?
**[28:58] ---**
Mr. Abrams is going to be mad at me!
**[29:00] ---**
Yeah, well...
**[29:01] ---**
I have to go and find my friend now.
**[29:05] ---**
Yeah.
**[29:05] ---**
But can I do it with just one eye?
**[29:08] ---**
What other choice is there?
**[29:10] ---**
But what if, by some chance...
**[29:12] ---**
Knock it off! Do it or die or death!
**[29:16] ---**
But...!
**[29:18] ---**
They're just tools!
**[29:20] ---**
As long as *you're* not broken, we'll manage!
**[29:24] ---**
In other words,
where there's a will, there's a way.
**[29:27] ---**
That's right.
**[29:31] ---**
But it's because of those
**[29:33] ---**
that you're in Libra, right?
**[29:42] ---**
Don't just stand there, you damn brat.
**[29:46] ---**
Get going, Leo.
**[29:48] ---**
The chief is waiting.
**[29:52] ---**
Right!
**[30:07] ---**
Whoa!
**[30:09] ---**
You're all revved up, aren't you?
**[30:35] ---**
You said you were going to
take him back from me...
**[30:43] ---**
...but I didn't choose him.
**[30:46] ---**
He accepted me in.
**[30:53] ---**
He had the same look on his face that you do.
**[30:59] ---**
So relax.
**[31:02] ---**
Even if you croak here, I'm sure...
**[31:07] ---**
the next you...
**[31:10] ---**
will revive you.
**[31:19] ---**
I...
**[31:22] ---**
won't stand for that!
**[31:27] ---**
Even if what you say is true...
**[31:33] ---**
it doesn't count as...
**[31:35] ---**
a reason why anyone has to...
**[31:39] ---**
pass away!
**[31:44] ---**
Then, what are you going to do?
**[31:47] ---**
Are you going to use your eyeballs to kill me?
**[32:01] ---**
I don't know.
**[32:05] ---**
That may be the best thing to do.
**[32:08] ---**
But I'm still not sure...
**[32:11] ---**
whether or not
it really is the right thing to do.
**[32:20] ---**
So I'm going to keep on thinking about it...
**[32:24] ---**
for as long as I'm alive.
**[32:29] ---**
So that the next time I see you,
**[32:33] ---**
I can be sure to offer you
a better answer than the one I have now.
**[32:52] ---**
I don't want to die!
I don't want to die! I don't want to die!
**[32:56] ---**
I want to live!
**[32:58] ---**
White!!
**[33:02] ---**
As long as you...
**[33:04] ---**
are trying to
take even one step toward the light...
**[33:09] ---**
your soul will never...
**[33:11] ---**
truly be...
**[33:15] ---**
beaten!!
**[33:20] ---**
The other you has not given up!
**[33:25] ---**
So...
**[33:27] ---**
how can it be okay for you to give up?!
**[33:31] ---**
White!!
**[33:51] ---**
Will...
**[34:12] ---**
Hey.
**[34:15] ---**
Are you okay?
**[34:19] ---**
I heard a voice...
**[34:22] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[34:24] ---**
Was that you?
**[34:26] ---**
Maybe.
**[34:37] ---**
Leo, I...
**[34:39] ---**
White...
**[34:41] ---**
I...
**[34:42] ---**
know your whole secret.
**[34:46] ---**
So it's okay.
**[34:53] ---**
Black wants to live.
**[34:58] ---**
The only one who can save him
as he is now is you, who you are now,
**[35:02] ---**
White.
**[35:06] ---**
As long as you try to take
even one step toward the light,
**[35:11] ---**
there's no way your human soul
will ever truly be beaten.
**[35:19] ---**
I heard that from someone.
**[35:25] ---**
White, if you are spooked
by the light being too strong,
**[35:31] ---**
and that's why you're standing still,
**[35:34] ---**
then I'll lead you by the hand,
**[35:37] ---**
as many times as you need.
**[35:41] ---**
Leo...
**[35:46] ---**
Let's go.
**[35:50] ---**
First thing we have to do
**[35:52] ---**
is save the world.
**[36:02] ---**
I'm sorry, Black!
**[36:13] ---**
Shared Vision!
**[36:15] ---**
Damn you, you brat! Not the eyes!
**[36:24] ---**
Mary Macbeth...
**[36:30] ---**
Knock it off! Go back to sleep!
**[36:34] ---**
William...!
**[36:52] ---**
Hi, Black.
**[36:55] ---**
Hi, White.
**[37:01] ---**
What are you doing?
**[37:03] ---**
Making sure you're alive.
**[37:06] ---**
Oh.
**[37:11] ---**
Black...
**[37:13] ---**
I...
**[37:16] ---**
don't really care what happens to the world.
**[37:20] ---**
It was always warped, even before all of this.
**[37:24] ---**
Even if we throw up
a barrier to gloss it over now,
**[37:28] ---**
someday, the same sort of thing
is sure to happen again anyway.
**[37:32] ---**
So then, that's all the more reason
to let it collapse now--
**[37:35] ---**
Black!
**[37:37] ---**
Don't lie to me.
**[37:39] ---**
Whatever happened
to my brave, kind brother?
**[37:49] ---**
I don't want to lose you!
**[37:53] ---**
I don't have any other way of saving you now.
**[38:00] ---**
I'm scared, White.
**[38:04] ---**
A world without you in it anymore
is the same as no world at all for me!
**[38:15] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[38:17] ---**
There's no way the whole world
will go away if I'm gone, is there?
**[38:23] ---**
That's silly.
**[38:29] ---**
Live, Black.
**[38:32] ---**
You can't simply deny the world
you're going to live in from now on.
**[38:38] ---**
And I'm sure the two of us
will be together from now on.
**[38:55] ---**
Doctor!
**[38:56] ---**
I'm picking up the last one!
**[39:02] ---**
I don't have enough strength left
anymore to recover and stabilize you.
**[39:10] ---**
So I'm going to use
the strength left in your body
**[39:14] ---**
to reestablish a new barrier.
**[39:19] ---**
To be honest, I'm not sure it's going to work.
**[39:24] ---**
Knowing you, Will, you'll do fine.
**[39:26] ---**
Papa and Mama are with us, too.
**[39:30] ---**
The thing that allowed me
to stay here these three years
**[39:33] ---**
was Papa and Mama's love.
**[39:38] ---**
Yeah, you're right.
**[39:40] ---**
That won't ever fail.
**[40:07] ---**
See you later, William.
**[40:11] ---**
My hopes...
**[40:13] ---**
my future...
**[40:30] ---**
W-- W--
**[40:33] ---**
We did it!
**[40:37] ---**
We did it! We did it! We did it!
**[41:17] ---**
If you had taken any longer getting here,
**[41:20] ---**
I was thinking I might have to
have some supper delivered.
**[41:22] ---**
Huh? Oh, right... Sorry.
**[41:27] ---**
I'm joking.
**[41:28] ---**
Oh, right.
**[41:30] ---**
Sorry.
**[41:35] ---**
Leonardo...
**[41:38] ---**
Nicely done.
**[41:41] ---**
What saved them during this
whole event was a single person--you.
**[41:49] ---**
Hold your head high, Leonardo Watch.
**[41:56] ---**
I am so proud of you.
**[42:05] ---**
Oh, right. Um...
**[42:08] ---**
I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused--
**[42:31] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[42:34] ---**
Are you watching this, White?
**[42:37] ---**
Your knight may be frazzled,
**[42:41] ---**
but he's still awfully cool.
**[42:53] ---**
No, that's not quite right.
**[42:57] ---**
He is our...
**[43:00] ---**
hero.
**[44:37] ---**
Hello, Michella.
**[44:39] ---**
How are you?
**[44:40] ---**
Your brother is doing well.
**[44:43] ---**
The reason I'm writing a letter
is to make a clean break, in my own way.
**[44:47] ---**
I hope you won't be mad,
and hold onto it, for your brother's sake.
**[44:54] ---**
Michella, I'm doing fine.
Here in the city without you,
**[44:59] ---**
I lean on your light,
and am still managing to survive.
**[45:04] ---**
I probably won't be able
to see you for a bit longer.
**[45:07] ---**
But someday,
I'll be sure to tell you directly...
**[45:11] ---**
about the world that I've seen.
**[45:16] ---**
The story of me, and the people
who showed some hope in me.
**[45:28] ---**
You're our new colleague, are you?
**[45:31] ---**
We're glad you're here.
**[45:32] ---**
Welcome to Libra.
**[45:34] ---**
Blood Blockade Battlefront
