SIGN    Chaika the Coffin Princess
[01:35] Guy
    A "hero"?
[01:36] Chaika
    Yes, hero. Searching.
[01:39] Chaika
    Any idea, please tell.
[01:41] Guy
    Oh, a hero! A hero, right?
[01:45] Guy
    Of course we know a hero.
[01:46] Guy
    We'll take you to him. Come with us.
[01:48] Chaika
    Grateful!
[01:56] Chaika
    Toru?
[01:57] Guy
    What the hell do you think yo—
[02:03] Toru
    Seriously, what are you thinking?
[02:06] Guy
    Hey! You little bastard!
[02:09] Fredrica
    Hey, wait! No fair!
[02:12] Fredrica
    Hang on a second!
[02:14] Fredrica
    Are you trying to kill each other?
    Let me in on that!
[02:23] Dragoon
    Come on, let's do it! Let's kill 'em!
[02:26] Toru
    Fredrica...
[02:27] Chaika
    Toru, mean...
[02:29] Toru
    Huh? Why?
[02:31] Chaika
    Nice people, informants. Cruel.
[02:35] Toru
    Listen, Chaika.
[02:36] ---
    Don't you realize they
    were gonna sell you off?
[02:39] Toru
    Those guys were obviously shady!
[02:42] Chaika
    Shocking truth...
[02:44] Dragoon
    Hey, what happened to killing?
    Let's kill now!
SIGN    The Pursuer and the Pursued
[02:54] Toru
    I told you not to wander around alone.
[02:56] Toru
    You're being pursued, you know.
[02:58] Toru
    What'll you do if a fight breaks
    out in the middle of town?
[03:01] Chaika
    Yes...
[03:02] Toru
    Why did you go out by yourself?
[03:05] Chaika
    I... no help.
[03:08] Chaika
    Can only do magic.
[03:10] Chaika
    Cooking, bad.
[03:12] Chaika
    Sewing, starting fire... all bad.
[03:15] Toru
    So you wanted to at least
    get us some information?
[03:19] Chaika
    Mysterious person, long time, no information.
[03:23] Toru
    Mysterious person?
[03:24] Toru
    Oh, you mean Guy?
[03:27] Chaika
    Eight heroes. Remains scattered.
[03:31] Chaika
    Taken away, only rumors.
[03:33] Chaika
    Name, unknown. Location, unknown...
[03:42] Toru
    Hey, Fredrica.
[03:43] ---
    You were with the eight heroes who
    subjugated the emperor, right?
[03:48] Toru
    You really don't remember
    anything about the other heroes?
[03:53] Toru
    That little...
[03:55] Chaika
    Gather remains... my objective.
[03:59] Chaika
    Try my hardest...
[04:01] Toru
    Hey, don't worry about it.
[04:04] Toru
    You hired us to help you
    reach that objective, right?
[04:07] Toru
    Anything you can't do, we will.
[04:10] Chaika
    But...
[04:12] Toru
    As our employer, all you have
    to do is keep looking forward.
[04:17] Chaika
    Toru...
[04:24] Akari
    I am back, Brother.
[04:26] Toru
    Welcome back...
[04:28] Toru
    ...my ass! What are you doing?!
[04:30] Akari
    Oh, yes, that was a close call.
[04:33] Akari
    I'm glad I got here in time.
[04:34] Toru
    What was "close"?
[04:36] Akari
    I got us some food.
[04:38] Akari
    This gecko, as well as earthworms,
    stonefly larva, and other things.
[04:42] Akari
    We won't be going hungry for a while.
[04:44] Chaika
    Food?
[04:46] Toru
    Any word on the heroes?
[04:48] Akari
    Nothing of use to us,
[04:50] Akari
    but it seems there are many former
    soldiers in the town of Perimeral.
[04:54] Akari
    It's about a day's travel by vehicle.
[04:57] Toru
    Perimeral?
[04:59] Akari
    Also, this was hanging in the town square.
[05:06] Toru
    Looks like we'd best hurry.
[05:25] Vivi
    Wh-What is it, Nikolai?
[05:28] Nikolai
    You're just giving him something
    to wipe off sweat, right?
[05:31] Nikolai
    Just go and do it.
[05:34] Nikolai
    And tell him how you feel while you're at it.
[05:37] Nikolai
    We're all rooting for you.
[05:39] Zita
    That's right, Vivi. You can do it.
[05:41] Vivi
    I-I wasn't thinking anything like that...
[05:44] Matheus
    Oh, thanks!
[05:46] Matheus
    I haven't stood under a
    waterfall in a long time.
[05:49] Matheus
    It really does firm you up, body and soul.
[05:51] Vivi
    Hey, that's...
[05:58] Vivi
    I will stab you!
[05:59] Matheus
    Hang on! Calm down! What's with you, Vivi?!
[06:02] Gillette
    Is something the matter?
[06:04] Vivi
    N-No, nothing...
[06:06] Nikolai
    You were getting pretty
    intense with that sword.
[06:09] Gillette
    Oh, did it look that way?
[06:12] Gillette
    I guess, as I was trying to
    shake off my indecision,
[06:14] ---
    more power went into my swings.
[06:16] Nikolai
    Indecision?
[06:18] Gillette
    I just can't believe that
    Chaika and those saboteurs
[06:21] Gillette
    are villains who will plunge
    the world into war again.
[06:27] Gillette
    In fact, it appears they are
    only moving straight ahead,
[06:30] Gillette
    following only their own convictions.
[06:33] (Flashback) Toru
    Why don't we let her bring
    back the age of war?
[06:39] Gillette
    It may be that I envy them.
[06:42] Gillette
    They know the path that they must follow...
[06:45] Nikolai
    How about this? If you're uncertain,
[06:48] Nikolai
    you could stop here to
    reconsider your future plans.
[06:51] Nikolai
    As the times change, I think it makes sense
[06:54] ---
    that a cavalier's nature should change, too.
[06:57] Nikolai
    Taking a wife and having children to
    safeguard the prestigious Gillette name...
[07:02] Nikolai
    Isn't that an important duty
    of a nobleman, as well?
[07:05] Gillette
    That is true...
[07:07] Gillette
    But it doesn't feel real to me yet.
[07:09] Gillette
    For starters, I have no one to marry.
[07:11] Nikolai
    She doesn't have to be nobility.
[07:13] Nikolai
    Someone suitable may be very close to you.
[07:16] Nikolai
    Such as...
[07:17] Leonardo
    Gillette-sama!
[07:19] Gillette
    Leonardo.
[07:20] Gillette
    Did you find out anything?
[07:22] Leonardo
    Yes. It seems the wanted posters paid off.
[07:25] Leonardo
    There have been multiple reports of
[07:27] ---
    three people resembling Chaika
    and her companions in the
[07:29] ---
    nearby town of Perimeral.
[07:31] Gillette
    Perimeral, huh? That's close.
[07:33] Leonardo
    However, there's something curious...
[07:36] Nikolai
    What?
[07:37] Leonardo
    Their characteristics weren't quite the same.
[07:40] Leonardo
    It was a male and two females, but...
[07:43] Nikolai
    Their characteristics?
[07:45] Nikolai
    What should we do, Captain?
[07:47] Gillette
    We'll head for Perimeral.
[07:49] Gillette
    Prepare to depart.
[07:50] All
    Yes, sir!
[08:05] Akari
    Brother, I'm sure you've noticed...
[08:08] Toru
    Yeah.
[08:10] Toru
    Don't be shocked. We're being followed.
[08:14] Toru
    What did I just say?
[08:15] Toru
    Just go on looking like nothing's wrong.
[08:18] Chaika
    R-Right.
[08:29] Toru
    Hey, could you move over? We can't get past.
[08:33] Red
    You, leave things. Everything. Go.
[08:37] Toru
    Huh? Bandits?
[08:40] Toru
    Sorry, but if you want to attack
    someone, attack the next car.
[08:46] Toru
    Not up for discussion?
[08:48] Toru
    Chaika, get your Gundo ready.
[08:50] Toru
    Her buddies are probably hiding nearby.
[08:53] ---
    Don't move the vehicle.
[08:54] Toru
    Akari, keep Chaika safe.
[08:57] Akari
    Understood.
[09:04] Toru
    A longsword user?
[09:07] Toru
    If you won't move,
    I'll have to move you by force.
[09:24] Toru
    A snake blade?
[09:27] Red
    Dance.
[09:34] Toru
    Damn it!
[09:35] Chaika
    Toru!
[09:36] Toru
    Don't interfere! Look around us!
[09:50] Toru
    Chaika?!
[09:54] Toru
    Akari!
[09:55] Akari
    Forgive me!
[10:06] Chaika
    Toru!
[10:09] David
    I've got the white one here!
[10:11] Toru
    Chaika!
[10:12] Red
    Distracted!
[10:32] Chaika
    Akari!
[10:43] David
    Whoa, whoa, whoa!
[10:46] Toru
    There you have it.
[10:47] Toru
    Let Chaika... Let our white girl go!
[10:50] David
    No, why don't you let our red girl go first?
[10:54] Akari
    Brother!
[11:00] Toru
    That car...
[11:03] Selma
    No other choice.
[11:10] Toru
    Damn! They got away!
[11:13] Toru
    Nothing we can do. Let's go.
[11:15] Akari
    Wise decision.
[11:26] Gillette
    You think a magic battle
    recently took place here?
[11:30] Zita
    It is possible.
[11:32] Nikolai
    The taboo emperor's daughter
    was a wizard, wasn't she?
[11:36] Leonardo
    To be specific, the girl we're
    chasing, Chaika, is a wizard.
[11:41] Nikolai
    There's just too much unknown...
[11:43] Nikolai
    I think it's in our best
    interests to go to Perimeral,
[11:45] ---
    the town the information came from.
[11:47] Matheus
    Gillette-sama.
[11:49] Matheus
    Why don't we split up?
[11:51] Matheus
    It's possible that Chaika and her
    companions could still be nearby.
[11:55] Matheus
    If there's even a single footprint,
[11:57] Matheus
    to an extent, Leo and I can track them.
[12:01] Gillette
    Then... can I count on you?
[12:02] Matheus
    Of course.
[12:03] Leonardo
    Yes!
[12:04] Red
    Rude! No touch! Rude!
[12:07] Red
    Rude! Rude! Rude!
[12:08] Toru
    Okay, okay.
[12:11] Akari
    Well, she doesn't seem to
    be concealing any weapons.
[12:14] Toru
    Yeah.
[12:18] Akari
    This is...
[12:20] Toru
    What?
[12:21] Akari
    I saw the same kind of scar
    on Chaika not long ago.
[12:25] Toru
    On Chaika?
[12:26] Toru
    Just who are you?
[12:30] Toru
    What's your name?
[12:31] Toru
    Why did you ambush us?
[12:36] Toru
    Silence, huh?
[12:38] Toru
    We don't know what to call you
    if you don't tell us your name.
[12:41] Toru
    "Hey, you" could get confusing.
[12:44] Akari
    Then, I will give her a name.
[12:48] Toru
    You will?
[12:51] Akari
    Sticky.
[12:52] Toru
    Huh? That's a name?
[12:54] Akari
    Yes. There's also Slimy, Slippery,
    Heavy, and many similar options.
[13:01] Toru
    Okay, your name is Sticky, then.
[13:03] Toru
    I'll ask again.
    Why did you attack us, Sticky?
[13:07] Akari
    Answer him, Sticky.
[13:08] Toru
    What are you after, Sticky?
[13:10] Akari
    You can't stick to your
    guns forever, Sticky.
[13:12] Red
    Bohdan.
[13:15] Red
    Chaika Bohdan!
[13:17] Toru
    What? What about Chaika?
[13:19] Red
    Chaika Bohdan! Name! My name!
[13:24] Toru
    Chaika?
[13:26] Toru
    What exactly are you?
[13:29] Toru
    Silence again, huh?
[13:33] Akari
    It seems we have no choice, Brother.
[13:37] Akari
    We'll have to torture her.
[13:39] Toru
    Yeah. You're right.
[13:51] David
    Nice. Very nice.
[13:54] Chaika
    Treatment, unfair!
[13:56] Chaika
    Remove clothes, unfair!
[13:58] David
    Well, you know...
[14:00] David
    It's standard to make sure you're not
    concealing any blades or anything.
[14:06] David
    Relax. I won't take off any more.
[14:10] David
    I'm not interested in
    women with small chests.
[14:12] David
    Kids, either.
[14:13] Chaika
    R-R-Rude!
[14:15] David
    What? You'd prefer if I were interested?
[14:21] David
    This is what a woman's
    chest should look li—
[14:26] Selma
    Idiot. What do we do now?
[14:28] Selma
    She doesn't have any remains.
[14:31] Selma
    She probably keeps them in her coffin, too.
[14:35] Chaika
    Coffin?
[14:37] David
    Which means we don't need this girl.
[14:41] David
    But since she's here,
    why don't we have a little fun,
[14:44] David
    then sell her off to a slaver or something?
[14:50] David
    I'm just kidding.
[14:57] Akari
    It's good... This is very good, Brother.
[15:00] Toru
    I just sprinkled a few spices on it,
    but it worked pretty well.
[15:05] Akari
    The juicy flesh and crispy,
    burnt skin are an exquisite match.
[15:15] Toru
    We'll have this polished off in no time.
[15:26] Toru
    How about it? Ready to talk yet?
[15:30] Toru
    You're hungry, aren't you?
[15:32] Toru
    Talk, and you get to eat.
[15:35] Toru
    Well?
[15:39] Toru
    You don't want any? We'll finish it, then.
[15:48] Toru
    You like it?
[15:51] Toru
    Really? You don't, eh?
[15:53] Toru
    Then we'll just finish the whole—
[15:54] Red
    D-Delicious!
[15:56] Toru
    I see, I see.
[15:58] Toru
    Good.
[16:01] Toru
    Here. Say "ahh."
[16:03] Toru
    Come on, "ahh."
[16:14] Chaika
    Spices, exquisite!
[16:16] David
    You make that look so delicious...
[16:20] Chaika
    Delicious! Grateful!
[16:23] David
    But, you know...
    you're making this hard for me.
[16:27] David
    If you're done, I've gotta tie you up again.
[16:30] Selma
    Their personalities are like night and day,
[16:32] Selma
    but they really do look identical.
[16:35] Chaika
    Identical?
[16:36] Selma
    You and Chaika.
[16:39] Selma
    You don't know? Our...
[16:42] Selma
    The girl your friends captured.
[16:45] Selma
    Her name is Chaika, too.
[16:48] Selma
    Anyway, there's more than
    one person out there
[16:51] Selma
    calling herself Chaika, the emperor's
    daughter, and gathering his remains.
[16:55] David
    We know of three, at least.
[16:59] David
    There are probably more than that.
[17:03] David
    I'm going to check for any movement outside.
[17:06] Selma
    Right.
[17:23] David
    West river... waterfall upstream...
    tomorrow before dawn.
[17:28] David
    So that's it...
[17:32] Leonardo
    The man with Chaika in that
    shed wasn't a saboteur, was he?
[17:37] Matheus
    No. Looks like the information you
    heard in Perimeral was accurate.
[17:41] Matheus
    Either Chaika got herself
    some new employees, or...
[17:45] Matheus
    Who's he meeting tomorrow
    morning at the waterfall?
[17:49] Matheus
    I don't know,
[17:49] Matheus
    but judging by the aftermath of that fight,
[17:52] Matheus
    there's no doubt that multiple
    forces are lurking around here.
[17:57] Matheus
    That being the case, we should
    make the appropriate preparations.
[18:12] Matheus
    Leo, stand back.
[18:27] Toru
    Are you after the remains?
[18:31] Toru
    Your name's Chaika, just like her.
[18:33] Toru
    You look like her, too.
[18:34] Toru
    Which means you call yourself
    the emperor's daughter,
[18:38] Toru
    just like our white Chaika, right?
[18:41] Red
    White Chaika, fake!
[18:42] Red
    Real Chaika, me!
[18:44] Toru
    Yeah, all fakes say that.
[18:47] Red
    If white Chaika real, show proof!
[18:50] Toru
    I don't have any.
    It's possible you're both fakes.
[18:56] Red
    White, fake...
[18:58] Red
    Gather Father's remains, can't allow.
[19:01] Toru
    So you are after his remains.
[19:04] Toru
    How many have you found?
[19:07] Toru
    Do you want to give him a funeral, too?
[19:10] Red
    Gather all Father's remains.
[19:13] Red
    Then... kill all.
[19:16] Red
    Kill all who killed Father.
[19:20] Red
    Kill all who ran, didn't protect Father.
[19:24] Toru
    Revenge?
[19:26] Toru
    Yeah, that is the more natural answer.
[19:30] Toru
    Where'd you get that weapon,
[19:33] Toru
    and where'd you learn to use it?
[19:37] Toru
    You can't tell me that, either?
[19:39] Red
    No... memory.
[19:42] Toru
    What?
[19:43] (Flashback) Toru
    Are you saying... you don't
    remember what happened?
[19:46] (Flashback) Chaika
    Yes. Memories missing.
[19:49] (Flashback) Toru
    Missing? You mean there's
    a gap in your memory?
[19:52] (Flashback) Chaika
    Have memories before war.
[19:55] (Flashback) Chaika
    End of war, vague.
[19:57] (Flashback) Chaika
    Only clear memories, past year.
[20:02] Toru
    Her, too?
[20:06] Toru
    What's wrong?
[20:09] Toru
    What? What is it?
[20:11] Red
    Back...
[20:12] Toru
    Huh?
[20:14] Red
    Back! Bug!
[20:15] Toru
    Oh... A bug went down your back?
[20:18] Red
    Remove binds!
[20:20] Toru
    I can't do that...
[20:21] Red
    Back!
[20:23] Toru
    Oh, all right...
[20:24] Toru
    Where is it?
[20:25] Red
    No touch!
[20:27] Toru
    You want me to get it out, don't you?
[20:28] Red
    Pervert!
[20:30] Toru
    What?
[20:30] Red
    Stroke all over body! Pervert!
[20:32] Toru
    I-I'm not gonna stroke you!
[20:35] Red
    Remove binds!
[20:36] Toru
    I told you, I can't...
[20:38] Red
    Bug, moving! Back!
[20:40] Toru
    Just be quiet!
[20:49] Akari
    Brother! Look out!
[20:56] Akari
    That was a very close call.
[20:58] Toru
    What the hell was "close"?!
[21:01] Akari
    I am back, Brother.
[21:03] Toru
    Do you have to do this every time?!
[21:06] Toru
    Well? How'd it go?
[21:09] Akari
    The letter was gone,
    and this was in its place.
[21:13] Toru
    That's Chaika's...
[21:14] Toru
    So they agreed to our deal.
[21:17] Toru
    Lucky you. Looks like your
    buddies haven't abandoned you.
[21:23] Red
    Obvious.
[21:40] David
    This is it. Your emotional first encounter.
[23:25] Red
    White Chaika, fake!
[23:27] Red
    Father's remains, must reclaim!
[23:30] Red
