    I'll be taking back the time

[02:00] GirlA
    No, it's true!
[02:02] GirlA
    If you make a wish under the clock
    tower at the Central Cemetery,
[02:06] GirlA
    you can turn back time!
[02:08] GirlB
    That's just an urban legend, isn't it?
[02:11] GirlC
    I'd love to turn back time.
[02:12] GirlC
    I've gained weight lately.
[02:14] GirlD
    I wonder if I could get
    back with my ex-boyfriend.
[02:17] Koyuki
    Come on, that can't really be true.
[02:20] GirlC
    Jeez, Koyuki, why do you have
    to say things like that?
[02:23] GirlC
    Have you no sense of romanticism?
[02:25] Koyuki
    Of course I do, but seriously,
[02:27] Koyuki
    you know it's not possible to turn back time.
[02:30] GirlD
    We know, but it doesn't
    hurt to dream a little!
[02:35] Koyuki
    Dreams are fine,
[02:37] Koyuki
    but right now, we need to work
    on our graduation surprise. Right?
[02:41] Koyuki
    We'll be singing for our
    families and teachers.
[02:44] Koyuki
    Leave the accompaniment to me.
[02:46] GirlA
    Wow... It's all worked out.
    Even the program and our positions!
[02:50] GirlC
    You're good, Koyuki!
[02:52] Koyuki
    Let's all work hard.
[02:53] Koyuki
    We need to express our gratitude to
    the people who are precious to us.
[02:57] GirlB
    My father's going to cry when he hears this.
[03:03] Koyuki
    And I bet my brother will be so
    overwhelmed that he cries his eyes out!
[03:11] Koyuki
    I'll go let Ms. Emily know.
[03:19] GirlA
    Hey, isn't Koyuki's brother...
[03:23] GirlB
    Yeah. They were the only two
    members of their family.
[03:29] Vice
    Ms. Emily.
[03:31] Vice
    Everyone's talking about how you
    suddenly look much younger these days.
[03:37] Vice
    Even the head office
    wouldn't recognize you now.
[03:41] Vice
    Have you performed some
    sort of magic recently?
[03:45] Vice
    Perhaps what they call
    "turning back time," for example?
[03:48] Emily
    Please refrain from speaking of matters
    unrelated to work, Vice Principal.
[03:53] Vice
    Oh, dear. My apologies.
[03:59] Emily
    Do you need something, Koyuki?
[04:02] Koyuki
    Yes, actually.
[04:06] GirlC
    But you know, she should
    want to turn back time
[04:12] GirlC
    more than any of us.
[04:19] Koyuki
    Brother...
[04:32] Koyuki
    Are you all alone, too?
[04:36] Koyuki
    You know, I once had an older brother.
[04:42] Koyuki
    But... he's gone now.
[04:49] (Flashback) Brother
    Koyuki!
[04:53] (Flashback) Koyuki
    Brother!
[04:58] (Flashback) Koyuki
    Oh, my violin!
[05:03] (Flashback) Brother
    Koyuki!
[05:14] Koyuki
    It was all...
[05:16] Koyuki
    ...my fault.
[05:24] Koyuki
    If only the legend about
    the clock tower were true.
[05:28] Koyuki
    Then I could see you again, and...
[05:46] Koyuki
    Wh-What? What was that?
[05:49] Kiri
    You can't run.
[05:51] Koyuki
    Huh?
[05:56] Koyuki
    What is this thing?
[05:58] Koyuki
    A monster?
[05:59] Koyuki
    What's that? A katana?
[06:06] Kiri
    If you think you've escaped,
    you're gravely mistaken.
[06:09] Kiri
    Victor is waiting just up ahead.
[06:11] Kiri
    Any moment now, I'll hear your dying screams.
[06:17] Kiri
    Any moment now, I'll hear your dying screams.
[06:23] Kiri
    Any moment now—
[06:24] Koyuki
    Um...
[06:25] LadyA
    Aw, leaving already?
[06:27] LadyB
    Stay a little longer, Victor!
[06:30] Victo
    I can't do that.
[06:32] LadyC
    Promise you'll come again, okay?
[06:34] Victo
    Sure.
[06:35] Victo
    And if I break my promise,
[06:37] Victo
    Kiri over there...
[06:41] Victo
    will eat pasta through his nose.
[06:43] Victo
    Why me?!
[06:46] Kiri
    Our plan was to use a pincer attack!
[06:49] Kiri
    Why are you goofing around here?
[06:51] Kiri
    What if that Horologue was the one
    we're seeking vengeance against?!
[06:54] Victo
    Kiri...
[06:56] Victo
    Stiffs like you have no
    chance of ever getting married.
[06:59] Kiri
    There's no way a prime
    specimen like me won't—
[07:02] Kiri
    Wait, forget that, Victor!
[07:05] Kiri
    Are you aware of the position you're in?!
[07:07] Victo
    Behind you.
[07:09] Kiri
    Don't change the subject!
[07:13] Koyuki
    Um...
[07:31] Kiri
    You're... Koyuki, right?
[07:33] Kiri
    We're, um... actors, you see.
[07:42] Kiri
    We're here to film a movie,
    and what you saw before was just...
[07:45] Kiri
    A special effect!
[07:47] Kiri
    An elite Hllywood film crew was
    milling around behind us.
[07:51] Kiri
    They've all left by now, though.
[07:52] Dancer
    You're an actor, Victor?
[07:55] Dancer
    You said before that you
    were a bounty hunter.
[07:56] Kiri
    I-It's a movie about a bounty hunter!
[08:00] Dancer
    Oh, I see!
[08:03] Victo
    Victor Putin's journal, February 15th.
[08:06] Victo
    My brother, Kiri Putin, just lied
    for the first time in his life.
[08:10] Victo
    His acting sucks,
[08:11] Victo
    but his first step toward breaking free of
    his serious nature must be commemorated.
[08:16] Kiri
    You piece of...
[08:19] Victo
    Well, I can't help it.
[08:21] Victo
    I forget things if I don't
    write them in my journal.
[08:24] Koyuki
    Actors? Your brother?
[08:26] Koyuki
    What's really the truth here?
[08:28] Victo
    The truth is always within
    your heart, my lady.
[08:34] Kiri
    Cut it out, you lecherous geezer!
[08:37] Victo
    Was "geezer" really necessary?
[08:39] Victo
    At least call me a lecherous young man
     or an erotic boy or something!
[08:42] Dancer
    That is true.
[08:43] Kiri
    "Geezer" is perfectly appropriate for him!
[08:45] Kiri
    Despite his looks, he's a
    geezer right to the core!
[08:48] Dancers
    That's also true.
[08:52] Koyuki
    It's so nice to have a brother.
[08:55] Koyuki
    I envy you.
[08:58] Koyuki
    If only the legend about
    the clock tower were true,
[09:02] Koyuki
    my brother would also...
[09:03] Kiri
    You believe in that nonsense?
[09:06] Kiri
    Those who have died can never return.
[09:08] Koyuki
    That—
[09:09] Dancer
    Hey, that was harsh!
[09:10] Dancer
    Wasn't there some other way to say that?
[09:13] Victo
    I'll tell you the truth.
[09:14] Victo
    The legend about the clock tower is true.
[09:17] Victo
    Many people have used its power
    to travel back to the past.
[09:22] Victo
    Yes, in fact, we are—
[09:28] Kiri
    Victor, my dear brother,
    look at the time! We must go!
[09:33] Kiri
    Well, thank you, ladies!
[09:34] Kiri
    And Koyuki, forget about your brother!
[09:37] Kiri
    Don't think about him! Understand?
[09:39] Kiri
    Farewell!
[09:53] Kiri
    For the love of...
[09:55] Kiri
    Are you a child?!
[09:56] Victo
    I'm Victor Putin, five years old
    and prettier than a flower!
[10:00] Kiri
    And it wasn't just today!
[10:02] Kiri
    How many times must you hold me back?
[10:04] Kiri
    Are you doing this on purpose?!
[10:07] Victo
    Perhaps.
[10:08] Kiri
    What?!
[10:10] Kiri
    You even tried to tell Koyuki the
    truth about the legend, didn't you?
[10:14] Kiri
    What if she had really believed you?
[10:16] Kiri
    Haven't you been more affected than anyone
[10:19] Kiri
    by the fact that the only
    thing that attracts Horologues
[10:21] Kiri
    is the desire born from human regret?
[10:24] Victo
    So if you look at it differently, isn't this
    really a chance to attract Horologues?
[10:30] Kiri
    It's too late once that girl
    is exposed to danger!
[10:34] Victo
    Kiri, you think that if we
    warn her in the strongest terms,
[10:38] Victo
    we can change her mind, don't you?
[10:42] Victo
    But someone won't stop thinking
    just because you said they must,
[10:47] Victo
    nor will they forget just because
    they were told they must.
[10:50] Victo
    It's not that simple.
[10:53] Victo
    I'm willing to bet on it.
[10:55] Victo
    If we don't force reality upon that girl,
[10:58] Victo
    it'll be impossible to erase her desire.
[11:01] Kiri
    Reality...
SIGN    March 1 10:28
[11:07] Koyuki
    As we graduate today,
    we'd like to express our gratitude
[11:11] Koyuki
    to all of you with this song.
[11:46] Koyuki
    All of my friends' parents, and all*
    of our teachers, were overjoyed.
[11:53] Koyuki
    So were you, right, Brother?
[12:05] (Flashback) Victo
    I'll tell you the truth.
[12:07] (Flashback) Victo
    The legend about the clock tower is true.
[12:12] Koyuki
    The address on the card
    should be around here.
[12:20] Koyuki
    Ms. Emily?
[12:24] Koyuki
    It couldn't be.
[12:34] Koyuki
    That legend really is true, isn't it,
[12:38] Koyuki
    Victor?!
[12:40] Victo
    Victor Putin's journal, March 1st.
[12:43] Victo
    The foolish little girl gave in to
    temptation and came straight to me.
[12:48] Koyuki
    Tell me the truth about the legend!
[12:52] Victo
    If you make a wish under the clock tower
    at midnight on the night of a full moon,
[12:56] Victo
    time will be turned back.
[13:02] Victo
    Care to try it?
[13:05] Koyuki
    Make time...
[13:09] Koyuki
    turn back!
[13:11] Koyuki
    Turn it back to when my
    brother was still alive!
[13:31] Horologue
    Time... Give me time.
[13:36] Koyuki
    Even so,
[13:39] Koyuki
    I want
[13:41] Koyuki
    my brother
[13:43] Koyuki
    to come back to me!
[13:59] Koyuki
    Kiri?
[14:00] Kiri
    You...
[14:03] Kiri
    idiot!
[14:08] Kiri
    How many times must I tell you not
    to involve ordinary citizens in this?
[14:11] Kiri
    What do you think would have happened
    if I hadn't gotten here in time?!
[14:14] Victo
    I wouldn't have landed on my butt.
[14:16] Kiri
    Do you even know the meaning
    of the word "remorse"?!
[14:20] Kiri
    Stay back, Koyuki.
[14:25] Kiri
    Koyuki!
[14:27] Koyuki
    Don't stop me!
[14:28] Koyuki
    You guys don't understand my pain!
[14:31] Koyuki
    Because both of you brothers are alive!
[14:34] Koyuki
    If it'll bring my brother back to life,
[14:36] Koyuki
    I don't care if that thing
    is a demon or anything else!
[14:40] Victo
    Didn't I tell you?
[14:42] Victo
    Human desire is not so easily erased.
[14:48] Emily
    Give it back...
[14:49] Emily
    Give my time back to me!
[14:55] Koyuki
    Ms. Emily?
[14:58] Victo
    No! Get away from that!
[15:02] Horologue
    Time...
[15:19] Victo
    This is the truth of the legend.
[15:21] Victo
    These things are demons called Horologues.
[15:24] Victo
    They appear to grant the wishes of
    people who want to return to the past,
[15:28] Victo
    but in truth, they're only
    eating humans' time.
[15:32] Victo
    When a human is bitten by a Horologue,
[15:34] Victo
    their time is drained away,
    and they return to nothingness.
[15:37] Victo
    This is what it means to
    make a contract with them.
[15:47] Kiri
    Victor!
[15:48] Kiri
    Oath of Time, activate!
SIGN    Slow Down
[16:00] Victo
    Slow Down!
[16:17] Koyuki
    Time stopped.
[16:19] Victo
    No, to be precise, I didn't stop it.
[16:24] Kiri
    Victor is only using the cards
[16:25] Kiri
    to reduce an object's passage
    through time to its slowest possible speed.
[16:30] Koyuki
    Just what are you guys?
[16:32] Victo
    We control time using this, the Oath of Time,
[16:36] Victo
    to battle the Horologues,
    demons that devour humans' time.
[16:44] Victo
    We are Chronos Rulers.
[16:46] Koyuki
    Chronos Rulers?
[16:50] Victo
    But all we can really control
    is the speed of time.
[16:54] Victo
    We can't know the future
    or return to the past.
[16:57] Victo
    Give up on your brother.
[16:59] Koyuki
    I can't give up on him!
[17:01] Koyuki
    He was the only family I had, and I lost him!
[17:04] Koyuki
    Do you have any idea how
    I feel?! You can't—
[17:07] Kiri
    We do.
[17:10] Kiri
    Victor let our mother die.
[17:13] Kiri
    In his regret, he wished to change the past.
[17:16] Kiri
    His regret brought a Horologue to us.
[17:19] Victo
    Take a good look.
[17:21] Victo
    This is what true loss looks like.
[17:26] Kiri
    The Oath of Time stops the flow of
    Victor's own time from within him.
[17:31] Kiri
    It was the only way.
[17:33] Victo
    Being bitten by a Horologue
[17:36] Victo
    doesn't just make you younger.
[17:38] Victo
    Your memories disappear, too.
[17:40] Victo
    There's so much I don't remember anymore.
[17:44] Koyuki
    No...
[17:49] Kiri
    Oath of Time, activate!
SIGN    Oath
[17:57] Victo
    Kiri, you protect Koyuki
[18:00] Victo
    with that Teenage Fantasy Sword of yours!
[18:01] Kiri
    Don't call it weird names!
[18:06] Kiri
    Slow Down!
SIGN    Slow Down
[18:13] Victo
    Slow Down!
SIGN    Slow Down
[18:31] Koyuki
    Victor!
[18:33] Victo
    You're stronger than I thought.
[18:41] Victo
    That's the way!
[18:42] Koyuki
    Why?
[18:44] Koyuki
    He's so badly hurt.
[18:46] Victo
    We may be able to control time,
[18:48] Victo
    but what happened in the
    past cannot be changed.
[18:51] Victo
    What's important is how much
    you cared for each other
[18:54] Victo
    and strengthened the bond you had
    during the time you lived together.
[19:01] Victo
    Now, then...
[19:02] Victo
    There's no skill in just trying to get away.
[19:06] Victo
    It's time for my counterattack.
[19:08] Kiri
    Don't, Victor!
[19:09] Victo
    Whoa, Kiri. Your job is to protect Koyuki.
[19:12] Victo
    Leave this to me.
[19:14] Victo
    After all, I promised Mom
    that I'd protect you.
[19:19] Victo
    It's written in my journal.
[19:20] Kiri
    No! Don't do it!
[19:22] Koyuki
    What's going on?
[19:25] Kiri
    When he uses Speed Up,
[19:26] Kiri
    the flow of Victor's time
    from within him accelerates.
[19:29] Kiri
    That means...
[19:31] Kiri
    He's about to give up his own
    time in return for our safety.
[19:37] Victo
    I thought that if I lost my memories,
[19:40] Victo
    I would eventually stop feeling
    the pain in my heart, as well.
[19:45] Victo
    But don't worry.
[19:46] Victo
    It's still very painful.
[19:50] Victo
    In return, I'll let you experience
    what it feels like to be alive,
[19:54] Victo
    with a card that can fire at Mach 10!
[19:57] Koyuki
    Victor...
[20:05] Victo
    Speed Up!
[20:13] Victo
    Ace Shot!
[20:39] Victo
    Where am I?
[20:40] Kiri
    Victor!
[20:42] Victo
    Huh?
[20:44] Victo
    What the heck happened?
[20:46] Kiri
    It's me, Kiri.
[20:47] Kiri
    Victor, do you recognize me?
[20:49] Victo
    Kiri?
[20:54] Victo
    Here, eat this pasta through your nose.
[20:56] Kiri
    That's what you start with?!
[20:57] Victo
    Huh? The pasta's all crusty.
[20:59] Kiri
    Thank goodness. He hasn't
    lost that much time.
[21:00] Victo
    Eating this through your nose
    would give you a nosebleed.
[21:05] Victo
    Actually, did you already eat
    your pasta through your nose?
[21:08] Kiri
    Huh? Er, I... uh...
[21:10] Kiri
    Y-Yeah, I did!
[21:12] Victo
    What, really? Are you serious?
[21:14] Kiri
    Yeah, I'm serious! And it
    was seriously al dente!
[21:20] Kiri
    I think you dropped this.
[21:24] Kiri
    Look at the back of the photo.
[21:25] Koyuki
    The back?
[21:33] Koyuki
    Always...
[21:36] Ralph
    I'll always be by your side, Koyuki.
[21:55] Koyuki
    Brother...
[21:59] Victo
    Koyuki, your brother is
    no longer in this world,
[22:03] Victo
    but you haven't lost the memories of
    the time you had with him, have you?
[22:07] Victo
    That in itself is a priceless treasure.
[22:13] Koyuki
    Yeah.
[22:52] (Flashback) Koyuki
    Come to think of it...
[22:54] (Flashback) Koyuki
    What is Victor's actual age?
[22:57] (Flashback) Kiri
    He becomes one day younger
    with each passing day,
[23:00] (Flashback) Kiri
    and his memories are lost at the same time.
[23:02] (Flashback) Koyuki
    So does that mean Victor is
    actually the older brother?
[23:09] Kiri
    Victor Putin. True age: 39.
[23:13] Kiri
    My...
[23:16] Kiri
    father.

[00:22] Kiri
    My name is Kiri.
[00:24] Kiri
    The two things I despise above all
    else are laziness and negligence.
[00:27] Kiri
    I believe that, in order to most
    efficiently achieve a goal,
[00:29] Kiri
    strict discipline and a flawless
    plan are absolutely indispensable.
[00:33] Kiri
    Indeed, my current goal is...
[00:38] Kiri
    to get him back into his own bed.
[00:42] Kiri
    Victor! What are you doing in my bed?!
[00:47] Victo
    What am I doing? I'm reconfirming
    our father-son bond.
[00:51] Kiri
    Get out of my bed right now!
[00:53] Victo
    Okay, okay. What a cold son you are.
[00:56] Kiri
    Put on your underwear!
[01:00] Victo
    What's wrong? There's no need to be shy.
[01:02] Victo
    This is your homeland, you know.
[01:05] Kiri

    "cutting" ties with my homeland.
[01:10] Victo
    Jeez, you sure can't take a joke.
[01:11] Kiri
    This is Victor.
[01:13] Kiri
    He's my lazy, negligent, and foolish father.
[01:18] Kiri
    We're on a journey to reclaim the
    time that's been taken from him.
[01:23] Kiri
    Why are you putting your socks
    on before your underwear?!
[03:08] Kiri
    The casino town of C'est La Vie.
[03:09] Kiri
    People dazzled by lust for money
    flock to this town of greed.
[03:13] Kiri
    The greater the greed in a place,
    the more Horologues it attracts.
[03:17] Guy
    Whoops, sorry.
[03:20] Kiri
    Hold it.
[03:22] Kiri
    Not a smart thing to do.
[03:23] Kiri
    I'll be taking my wallet back.
[03:25] Guy
    S-Sorry, bro. I'll return it
    later with interest, okay?
[03:30] Kiri
    Give it back.
[03:32] Guy
    I have a very sickly wife and a young son—
[03:35] Kiri
    Give it back.
[03:37] Victo
    Ah, so you're a father doing
    your best for your son, too?
[03:42] Victo
    I'm very concerned about my
    son's upbringing, as well.
[03:46] Guy
    Huh? As young as you are?
[03:47] Victo
    That's right. So I very much
    understand how you feel.
[03:52] Victo
    You can keep that money.
[03:53] Kiri
    H-Hey—
[03:54] Guy
    Th-Thank you!
[03:57] Kiri
    Victor! That was our travel money!
[04:00] Kiri
    What are you thinking,
    giving it to that obvious lowlife?!
[04:02] Victo
    Relax and enjoy!
[04:05] Victo
    This is a casino town, isn't it?
[04:07] Victo
    I can win that kind of pocket
    change back in no time!
[04:09] Kiri
    You think you're going
    to win it at a casino?!
[04:13] Kiri
    Seriously, could he be any more frivolous?
[04:20] (Flashback) Victo
    Okay, I'm off.
[04:23] Kiri
    He's always been like that.
SIGN    Why Won't You Stay With Us?
[04:26] Kiri
    Every time he went out, it was to gamble.

[04:36] Kiri
    So this is how it feels to want
    to meet an unruly kid's parents.
[04:51] Guy
    Please!
[04:53] Guy
    I'm begging you!
[04:55] Guy
    A little more... Please,
     give me just a little more time!
[04:57] Zed
    I can't do that. Do you realize how
    accommodating I've been already?
[05:02] Guy
    But...
[05:04] Zed
    You have until 7:00 this
    evening to pay me back.
[05:06] Zed
    I can't wait any longer than that.
[05:12] Guy
    Why did I ever get into gambling?
[05:17] Guy
    My wife and kid left me,
[05:20] Guy
    I lost my home and all my assets...
[05:22] Guy
    I never should have tried it.
[05:28] Guy
    I wish I could go back to
    the past and start over.
[05:38] Guy
    What are those things?!
[05:41] Guy
    M-Monsters!
[05:47] Kiri
    Your regret drew Horologues here!
[05:50] Kiri
    If you don't want to be eaten,
    get out of here!
[05:55] Kiri
    Now, then... This is the first time
    I've ever faced eight at once.

    But today will be an easy win.

    Don't panic, Kiri. It's simple.

[09:01] Victo
    This is a town of greed

[09:03] Victo
    Anything goes.
[09:05] Horologue
    It has been a long time, card user.
[09:08] Victo
    You know me?
[09:12] Horologue
    Of course I do.
[09:14] Horologue
    The one who devoured your

[09:20] Horologue

    If that were not the case,

    Even if I can't get them back,

[10:19] Kiri
    Revenge?
[10:20] Kiri
    What's the point if you have
    to sacrifice yourself?!
[10:23] Horologue
    Having a falling-out, eh?
[10:25] Horologue
    Humans truly are incomprehensible.
[10:50] Mina
    That was no good at all.
[10:52] Mina
    You're not using the Oath of Time
    like you're supposed to.
[10:55] Mina
    But I guess you always want
    to do things your own way.
[10:58] Mina
    I'll give you three stars
    as a special service!
[11:01] Victo
    Who are you?
[11:04] Mina
    I missed you!
[11:07] Mina
    Darling!
[11:10] Mina
    I'm your wife, Mina!
[11:16] Zed
    Oh, boy... Looks like we've got
    another pest on our hands.
[11:20] Zed
    Time to go, Aiks.
[11:24] Zed
    We don't want to create any more of a stir.
[11:27] Zed
    We'll put Majesty in a bad mood.
[11:29] Zed
    Stand down.
[11:32] Horologue
    Very well.
[11:35] Guy
    It disappeared...
[11:35] Girl
    I guess they were filming
    a movie, after all.
[11:36] Girl
    I'm gonna send this picture to my friend.
[11:37] Guy
    That was pretty amazing, though.
[11:38] Girl
    Oh, send it to me, too!
[11:41] Aiks
    Victor, huh?
[11:53] Victo
    Where did the white Horologue go?!
[11:57] Mina
    It ran away, I guess.
[11:59] Mina
    I almost didn't recognize you, though.
[12:01] Mina
    You look so much younger, Victor.
[12:04] Mina
    But you're as handsome as ever.
[12:07] Mina
    I've missed you.
[12:11] Kiri
    Mina, I thank you for saving us.
[12:14] Kiri
    But please stop lying.
[12:16] Mina
    Lying?
[12:17] Kiri
    My mother's name was Nana.
[12:20] Kiri
    She left this life twelve years ago.
[12:22] Kiri
    The name "Mina" has never
    appeared in Victor's journal.
[12:26] Mina
    Hmm... Nana?
[12:28] Mina
    So that's what I'm going to
    be called from now on, huh?
[12:32] Mina
    Such a weird name.
[12:33] Kiri
    From now on?
[12:34] Mina
    But I don't mind!
[12:36] Mina
    I've searched for so long,
    my beloved darling!
[12:39] Mina
    Even if you've forgotten,
[12:41] Mina
    we just need to start over
    from this first encounter!
[12:44] Victo
    Miss, I'm sorry, but I'm not in
    the right frame of mind now.
[12:48] Mina
    Huh?
[12:49] Victo
    We've been searching all these years, too,
[12:52] Victo
    for the Horologue that devoured my time.
[12:55] Victo
    And yet...
[12:56] Victo
    Just when I thought we finally
    found it, I let it escape!
[12:59] Victo
    Who am I supposed to take
    out this anger on?!
[13:03] Kiri
    Victor...
[13:11] Victo
    March 4th.
[13:12] Victo
    I encountered the Horologue
    that devoured my time.
[13:14] Victo
    But it got away.
[13:16] Victo
    I'll take it out on Kiri to
    take my mind off my vexation.
[13:19] Kiri
    Hey, whoa!
[13:20] Kiri
    I saw that coming, but still,
    you change gears too fast!
[13:23] Victo
    Sheesh, you're so quick to anger.
[13:25] Victo
    You need to take a more relaxed approach.
[13:27] Kiri
    What are you saying?! That was
    a once-in-a-lifetime chance!
[13:31] Victo
    It'll be fine. There'll be other chances.
[13:34] Kiri
    What makes you so sure?!
[13:36] Victo
    Hmm... Intuition?
[13:38] Kiri
    That's even worse!
[13:39] Victo
    Hey, don't mock intuition.
[13:40] Kiri
    You always ignore what's
    right in front of you!
[13:43] Mina
    I finally found him, and I'm the
    only one who's happy about it.
[13:47] Mina
    I guess I'm not even on
    his radar, after all.
[13:56] Kiri
    Wait! Victor's past is
    contained in that journal!
[13:59] Kiri
    Give it back!
[14:00] Mina
    You'll just have to catch me, then.
[14:03] Kiri
    Stop!
[14:06] Kiri
    There's no doubt about it.
    She's a Chronos Ruler!
[14:09] Mina
    I have far too great a handicap right now,
[14:12] Mina
    so I'll teach you the correct
    way to use the Oath of Time.
[14:16] Mina
    The Oath of Time has two powers.
[14:19] Mina
    One is a power that can stop
    the outward flow of time,
[14:22] Mina
    even when a Horologue is nearby.
[14:24] Mina
    But you can't get bitten
    like my darling was,
[14:28] Mina
    so you still need to be super
    careful around Horologues.
[14:31] Mina
    Its second power is to speed up
    or slow down objects around it.
[14:38] Mina
    Speed Up!
[14:44] Mina
    Sorry! Did that hurt?
[14:46] Mina
    My intermediary is wind.
[14:48] Mina
    I can send anyone who gets in my way flying.
[14:51] Kiri
    I know all of that!
[14:53] Mina
    No, you don't know everything yet.
[14:56] Kiri
    What?
[14:57] Mina
    Watch closely.
[14:59] Mina
    Slow Down!
SIGN    Slow Down

    She slowed down air and solidified
    it into a blade of wind...
[15:12] Mina
    Bingo!
[15:13] Kiri
    Impossible! You can't activate Speed
    Up while Slow Down is in effect!
[15:16] Kiri
    Victor and I can't activate Speed Up
    and Slow Down simultaneously.
[15:21] Kiri
    Which means...
[15:22] Mina
    It means you don't yet know the
    true power of the Oath of Time.
[15:32] Victo
    Would you return my journal, please?
[15:35] Victo
    It's more precious than my life.
[15:38] Mina
    And if I say I won't?
[15:40] Victo
    Well...
[15:41] Victo
    I'll **** and **** you, then **** until
    you ****, and then **** even if you ****.
[15:46] Kiri
    Victor, what are you saying?!
[15:48] Mina
    F-Fine! You can have it!
[15:52] Mina
    But I really don't get it.
[15:54] Mina
    Why do you adhere to the past, darling?
[15:57] Mina
    Those memories aren't even yours.
[15:59] Kiri
    What are you—
[16:00] Mina
    You believe that journal unconditionally.
[16:04] Mina
    About being bitten by the
    Horologue and everything else.
[16:07] Mina
    But if you look at it another way,
    doesn't that mean you have no memories left?
[16:14] Mina
    So can you really say
    it's something precious?
[16:21] Mina
    In that case...
[16:24] Mina
    Come build a future with me!
[16:29] Mina
    From now on, we'll live
    together, have fun together,
[16:33] Mina
    grieve together, and make
    wonderful memories together!
[16:37] Mina
    Okay, darling?
[16:39] Mina
    Darling?
[16:41] Victo
    You're right, Mina.
[16:44] Victo
    Still, I'm sorry, but I can't do that.
[16:47] Mina
    Why not? I'm your wife!
[16:50] Victo
    I'm sure many things happened in my life
[16:53] Victo
    before I was bitten by
    that Horologue at age 27.
[16:56] Victo
    Even if it's not written in my journal...
[16:59] Victo
    Like ****ing with **** and
    ****ing the **** so it ****...
[17:02] Kiri
    Victor! What are you saying?!
[17:04] Victo
    Do you think I can bear to not
    reclaim such fantastic memories?
[17:09] Victo
    I can't.
[17:11] Victo
    Plus, at a glance, you look
    younger than I am right now.
[17:16] Victo
    So it's hard for me to
    believe you're my wife.
[17:19] Victo
    The numbers don't add up.
[17:23] Kiri
    That's true...
[17:27] Mina
    You jerk!
[17:28] Mina
    You jerk! You jerk! You jerk!
[17:30] Mina
    You're not the only one who
    was bitten by a Horologue!
[17:41] Mina
    Here, darling. Say, "Ah."
[17:44] ---
    Ah...
[17:45] Victo
    It tastes like pure happiness, Mina.
[17:47] Mina
    Call me "honey."
[17:50] Mina
    And don't forget the heart
    at the end of the sentence!
[17:52] Victo
    Honey!
[17:53] Mina
    Darling, darling!
[17:55] Kiri
    Hey, you two!
[17:57] Kiri
    Give it a rest! You're in public!
[17:59] Victo
    Oh, dear.
[18:00] Victo
    The virgin who's never even held a girl's
    hand is jealous of his hot daddy.
[18:04] Mina
    He'll never fall in love that way.
[18:06] Mina
    I guess his virginity will just get worse
    until he's a cranky old man who dies alone.
[18:10] Mina
    As his mother, I'm concerned.
[18:12] Kiri
    Who said you're my mother?!
[18:13] Kiri
    I don't need you worrying about my future!
[18:16] Mina
    Oh, my! Darling, why is our boy so contrary?
[18:19] Victo
    You can't blame him.
    He's always been a troubled child.
[18:22] Mina
    I'll have to give him
    some good, firm discipline!
[18:25] Victo
    If he doesn't obey, we'll make
    him eat pasta through his nose.
[18:28] Mina
    Nice idea, darling!
[18:31] Kiri
    This has doubled his attack power!
[18:35] Kiri
    Why are you so perfectly in sync?!
[18:37] Mina
    Didn't I tell you? I'm my darling's wife.
[18:40] Mina
    When two people love each other,
    they start to think alike.
[18:45] Mina
    What do I have to say
    to make you understand?
[18:47] Mina
    I look young because I was bitten by
    a Horologue, just like my darling.
[18:51] Mina
    I'm not lying when I say I'm his wife.
[18:55] Kiri
    You are lying. I saw my mother's dead body.
[18:59] Mina
    When time is reversed,
    people revert from elders to children.
[19:04] Mina
    So coming back from the dead
    isn't impossible, is it?
[19:07] Victo
    Also, at one time,
[19:09] Victo
    I was part of an organization called
    Chronos that fought Horologues.
[19:13] Kiri
    Hang on, Victor! You believe her?
[19:17] Victo
    In the organization, my popularity
    was just as high as my scores!
[19:20] Victo
    She says I was hailed as the ace,
    so it's undoubtedly true!
[19:25] Kiri
    You couldn't possibly be more conceited.
[19:27] Mina
    It's not a lie.
[19:29] Mina
    I was my darling's partner. I know
    how he fought better than anyone.
[19:35] Mina
    I'm sure there's still a record of his
    work at the Chronos headquarters.
[19:39] Mina
    You can learn all the things in his past
[19:41] Mina
    that aren't in the journal
    if you look at them.
[19:46] Mina
    That includes information on
    the Horologue that bit him.
[19:56] Kiri
    I'd like to confirm one thing.
[19:58] Kiri
    This "Chronos" organization
    really does exist, right?
[20:01] Mina
    You really are a doubter, aren't you?
[20:04] Mina
    I can forgive that, though.
    That's what you call a mother's love.
[20:08] Kiri
    If this is some kind of trap, I swear...
[20:12] Mina
    That's the proof that Chronos exists.
[20:16] Mina
    It was Chronos that invented
    the Oath of Time.
[20:19] Mina
    The reason I can activate Speed Up
    and Slow Down simultaneously
[20:23] Mina
    is because these are the latest technology.
[20:25] Mina
    Also, your Oath of Time is an old model.
[20:28] Mina
    But either way,
    they're just mass-produced copies.
[20:31] Mina
    There's also an original
    that these were based on.
[20:34] Kiri
    Original?
[20:36] Mina
    The very first Oath of Time ever made.
[20:39] Mina
    It's called "UNIQUE."
[20:42] Mina
    The one my darling has,
    the one and only UNIQUE,
[20:44] Mina
    is able to control the time of not
    only objects, but living things.
[20:49] Mina
    That's how he's able to avoid sudden,
    massive regressions in age.
[20:54] Kiri
    You can't mean...
[20:58] Kiri
    Still,
[20:59] Kiri
    if only one UNIQUE exists in the world,
[21:03] Kiri
    then how are you keeping your
    own time from pouring out?
[21:10] Victo
    I'm back!
[21:11] Victo
    They said the soonest train
    departs tomorrow morning.
[21:15] Kiri
    Wait!
[21:15] Mina
    And as for this nosy little boy...
[21:19] Mina
    I guess I'll kill him.
[21:23] Mina
    Darling! I missed you!

SIGN    March 15 14:00
[00:07] Kiri
    We've been climbing forever.
    Aren't we there yet?
[00:10] Mina
    You're so impatient. It's not far now.
[00:17] (Flashback) Kiri
    You're sure we can learn about Victor's
    past if we go to this Chronos HQ?
[00:23] (Flashback) Mina
    HQ has detailed records of all
    Chronos Rulers it employs.
[00:28] (Flashback) Mina
    Only thing is...
[00:29] (Flashback) Mina
    I've hidden my darling's records in my room.
[00:33] (Flashback) Kira
    What?!
[00:35] (Flashback) Mina
    They're waiting in the highest
     part of the castle,
[00:37] (Flashback) Mina
    like a princess in a fairy tale.
[00:42] (Flashback) Mina
    If you want them back, you have
    to marry me! Okay, darling?
[00:47] (Flashback) Victo
    If I get my memories back,
[00:49] (Flashback) Victo
    it'll prove whether or not
    you're really my wife, right?
[00:53] (Flashback) Victo
    If you are, there's no need
     to marry you again.
[01:16] Mina
    We're here! This is the entrance to HQ!
[01:23] Kiri
    There's nothing here.
[01:25] Mina
    Silly. It's a secret organization
    because ordinary people can't find it.
[01:32] Mina
    This boulder beneath us is under
    the effects of Slow Down.
[01:35] Mina
    Making contact with an
    Oath of Time releases it.
SIGN    Release
[01:40] Mina
    If you're afraid of heights,
    you might want to close your eyes.
[01:50] Victo
    Oh, so it's underground!
[01:53] Mina
    Yep! Welcome home, darling!
[01:56] Mina
    This is the home base of
    the Chronos Rulers...
[02:04] Mina
    Chronos!
[02:23] Snake
    Mina has returned.
[02:26] Snake
    It appears she has brought them here,
    as she was ordered.
[02:30] Snake
    I will now go and receive them.
[02:34] Snake
    All as you wish it, Master.
[04:37] Snake
    You are Victor and Kiri, yes?
[04:40] Snake
    Welcome to Chronos.
[04:42] Snake
    I am Snake, head of the technology division.
[04:46] Snake
    No need to be tense! Relax, relax!
[04:49] Snake
    Are we not comrades in the
    subjugation of Horologues?
[04:53] Snake
    And Mina...
[04:54] Snake
    You've done fine work.
[04:56] Snake
    We have eagerly awaited your return.
[04:59] Mina
    Huh?
[05:00] Snake
    The truth is...
[05:03] Snake
    I wanted to see you in this school uniform!
[05:06] Snake
    This is the summer uniform
    of the famed high school
[05:08] Snake
    for girls of nobility,
    St. Laurent High School, circa 1987!
[05:12] Snake
    The school was closed just
    after it came into use,
[05:14] Snake
    and only a few were preserved,
    making it a legendary find!
[05:16] Snake
    I finally got my hands
    on one for 50,000 euros!
[05:20] Snake
    I'm sure it'll look adorable on y—
[05:25] Snake
    I won't give up!
[05:28] Snake
    School uniforms have a beauty that
    transcends age and social standing!
[05:33] Victo
    The head of the technology division?
[05:36] Mina
    Don't worry about him.
[05:38] Mina
    He's just a perverted old geezer.
[05:44] Snake
    A perverted old geezer? That hurts.
[05:48] Snake
    This is a matter of course.
[05:51] Snake
    I am also a Chronos Ruler,
[05:55] Snake
    and the thing I rule is...
[05:57] Snake
    high school girls' uniforms!
[06:06] Snake
    And now that I've given a brief
    introduction of myself...
[06:10] Snake
    I must say, Mr. Victor,
    I've heard much about you.
[06:14] Victo
    You have?
[06:16] Snake
    Yes. May I have a look at the scar
    left when the Horologue bit you?
[06:23] Snake
    It's preventing the flow
    of time out of your body!
[06:25] Snake
    This is most definitely the
    original Oath of Time...
[06:28] Snake
    Also known as UNIQUE!
[06:30] Snake
    This is the treasure that we at Chronos
    have sought for a thousand years!
[06:38] Snake
    Chronos was established 2,200 years ago.
[06:41] Snake
    It was formed by gathering the very
    best humans to combat Horologues.
[06:45] Snake
    Today, it has grown into a massive family
[06:48] Snake
    with a total of 689 personnel
    among all its branches.
[06:52] Victo
    Oh?
[06:53] Victo
    For having so many people,
    it looks awfully deserted.
[06:59] Snake
    Everyone just happens to be out and about.
[07:01] Victo
    This is where I was a long time ago, right?
[07:04] Victo
    Can you tell me what I was like back then?
[07:07] Snake
    I'm afraid I don't know much about that.
[07:10] Snake
    I only joined less than ten years ago.
[07:14] Kiri
    Victor, it's still too risky to
    drop our guard around them.
[07:19] Victo
    No one who likes school uniforms can be bad.
[07:21] Snake
    Oh! Are you like me, Victor?!
[07:24] Victo
    Of course. That's how I knew with one look
[07:28] Victo
    that this uniform is not from 1987.
[07:32] Snake
    Huh?!
[07:33] Victo
    My girlfriend from back in middle school,
[07:35] Victo
    Alice from St. Laurent High School,
    didn't wear a uniform like this.
[07:40] Kiri
    School uniforms...
[07:42] Kiri
    Why do you only have clear memories
    of useless things like that?
[07:47] Victo
    There was also Lisa from Amelia High School
[07:49] Victo
    and Jill from Feiler Girls' High School...
[07:51] Victo
    How nostalgic.
[07:54] Snake
    Those are all legendary girls' high schools!
[07:57] Victo
    Do you want their uniforms?
[08:00] Victo
    I could arrange that for you.
[08:02] Snake
    Please, sir!
[08:04] Snake
    How supremely fortuitous it
    was that I met you this day!
[08:07] Snake
    I would like to humbly present
    to you these two uniforms!
[08:11] Victo
    Huh? I do like school uniforms,
[08:14] Victo
    but I like what's found
    inside them much more.
[08:16] Victo
    Give those to Kiri. He'll be thrilled.
[08:19] Kiri
    Look, Victor...
[08:20] Snake
    Now, please don't say that. This is...
[08:24] Snake
    the mission bestowed upon me by my master.
[08:28] Kiri
    This is... Slow Down?!
SIGN    Slow Down
[08:31] Snake
    Didn't I tell you?
[08:33] Snake
    I am a Chronos Ruler.
[08:35] Mina
    Snake!
[08:36] Snake
    These are the master's orders.
[08:38] Snake
    The recovery of UNIQUE has been the
    wish of Chronos for a millennium.
[08:42] Mina
    I won't stand for that!
[08:44] Mina
    If you take UNIQUE from
    my darling, he'll die!
[08:48] Victo
    I wondered what sort of heroes
    of justice you guys would be.
[08:51] Victo
    I guess you're really people who'd
    sacrifice others to get your way.
[08:55] Snake
    Seventy-six!
[08:58] Snake
    That is the number of people
    who remain alive here at HQ.
[09:20] Snake
    We have sacrificed the
    lives of far too many.
[09:25] Snake
    But if we have UNIQUE, which is capable
    of ruling the time of all living things,
[09:31] Snake
    we can control the Horologues
[09:33] Snake
    and put a swift end to this war,
    which has persisted for thousands of years.
[09:38] Snake
    And the price for that
[09:40] Snake
    is no more than the life
    of a single man: you!
[09:44] Snake
    I believe a sacrifice like
    this aligns with justice.
[09:50] Snake
    Mina, take care of the rest.
[09:52] Snake
    You've done splendidly well.
[09:54] Mina
    What are you saying?!
    I won't abandon my darli—
[09:56] Snake
    This is a message from the master.
[09:58] Snake
    "Letting personal feelings interfere
    with your duty is intolerable."
[10:03] Snake
    Now, bring our two visitors to my lab.
[10:07] Snake
    Oh, and be careful not to
    soil the school uniforms.
[10:10] Victo
    I get it. You don't want to sacrifice
    any more of your comrades.
[10:15] Victo
    You truly care about the others
    in this organization, don't you?
[10:18] Victo
    But...
[10:20] Victo
    It just so happens that I care
    about my partner, too.
SIGN    Slow Down
[10:26] Victo
    If I die, Kiri will cry like a baby.
[10:29] Victo
    So I cant give you my life just yet.
[10:32] Victo
    Kiri, let's go.
[10:34] Victo
    You were right. It was a bad idea to
    drop our guard around these people.
[10:42] Snake
    I won't let you escape!
[10:46] Snake
    What?!
[10:51] Victo
    Bye-bye.
[10:57] Mina
    My darling never believed me
    in the first place.
[11:02] Mina
    Darling, wait!
[11:03] Mina
    I didn't know what the master had in mind!
[11:06] Mina
    I wasn't trying to trick you!
     Please believe me!
[11:09] Victo
    If fate sees fit, I'll see you again.
[11:15] Mina
    Victor...
[11:29] Mina
    You're leaving... again?
[11:33] Snake
    After them! Don't let them escape!
[11:44] Mina
    Just try and lay one finger on my darling.
[11:47] Mina
    I'll kill you all myself!
[11:51] Snake
    Mina! Where are you going?!
[11:53] Snake
    The master will be furious!
[11:58] Kiri
    So it turned out to be a trap.
[12:02] Kiri
    But I never figured they'd try to kill us.
[12:04] Kiri
    In a way, humans are far more
    troublesome than Horologues.
[12:08] Kiri
    But since we don't know what
    sort of hand they're playing,
[12:11] Kiri
    retreating for now was a good decision.
[12:13] Kiri
    You've gotten much calmer, Victor.
SIGN    Heh Heh Heh
[12:19] Kiri
    No!
[12:24] Kiri
    What are you thinking, Victor?!
[12:26] Victo
    Nothing ventured, nothing gained!
[12:29] Kiri
    Wait!
[12:30] Victo
    Oh, have a bath drawn for me at the hotel!
[12:34] Kiri
    Hey! Victor!
[12:40] Kiri
    Damn it!
[12:44] Guy
    Orders from the master!
[12:45] Guy
    Apprehend Victor Putin, dead or alive!
[12:48] Guy
    He can't have gotten far!
[12:50] Guy
    Split up and find him!
[12:52] All
    Yes, sir!
[12:54] Victo
    Ding-dong. Correct!
[12:57] Victo
    I haven't gotten far.
[12:59] Victo
    But if you can't see what's right under
    your nose, you've got a ways to go.
[13:04] Victo
    The decoy plan worked.
[13:07] Victo
    Avoiding battle is an important tactic, too.
[13:11] Victo
    Now, as for where my records are...
[13:15] Victo
    If I believe Mina...
[13:17] Mina
    They're in the highest part of the castle,
[13:19] Mina
    waiting for the prince to take them away.
[13:33] Kiri
    Damn it! Where was he
    hiding this many cards?
[13:43] Kiri
    All the cards were destroyed at once?
[13:46] Kiri
    What did this?
[13:52] Blaze
    You really hadn't run away yet?
[13:55] Blaze
    Seriously, did you think a bunch
    of toys like these would stop me?
[14:00] Blaze
    Well?
[14:01] Blaze
    The master has said we're free
    to kill the card bastard...
[14:05] Blaze
    But sadly, he didn't say the same about you.
[14:09] Blaze
    It's no fun at all!
[14:12] Blaze
    But you're his buddy, right?
[14:14] Blaze
    So if I torture you, I bet you'll cry out
[14:18] Blaze
    and call Victor right to me.
[14:49] Kiri
    There's an Oath of Time in his gauntlet.
[14:51] Kiri
    So he's a Chronos Ruler, too?
[14:55] Kiri
    His first attack burned up
    all the cards instantly,
[14:59] Kiri
    but he fights exclusively with his fists.
[15:01] Kiri
    So there are two possibilities...
SIGN    Slow Down
[15:05] Kiri
    One is that he may have a flamethrower
    or similar weapon in his fist.
[15:12] [SONG] Text
    Speed Up
[15:12] Blaze
    A sword made of water, eh?
[15:14] Blaze
    If you control water,
    you're just as spineless as you look!
[15:14] [SONG] Text
    Speed Up
[15:18] Blaze
    If you're a man, let's see you fight
    me fair and square with your fists!
[15:23] Kiri
    If that's the case, I only
    need to avoid his fists.
[15:27] Blaze
    Don't you wuss out on me!
[15:30] Kiri
    You're very simple-minded.
[15:32] Kiri
    My water drops have already surrounded you.
[15:37] Kiri
    Speed Up!
[15:44] Blaze
    You're the simple-minded one, you idiot!
[15:46] Blaze
    I'm not picky about how I achieve my goals.
[15:49] Blaze
    Cheating, deceiving, outwitting...
[15:51] Blaze
    I'm a villain to the core, after all.
[15:54] Blaze
    My weapon is not my fist.
[15:58] Blaze
    It's the fire of explosions!
[15:59] Blaze
    I'm the Chronos Ruler of fire, Blaze!
[16:02] Blaze
    Every manner of flame is my servant.
[16:04] Blaze
    Even the sparks at your feet,
    with my orders,
[16:06] Blaze
    will become a magnificent blaze
    that burns all to the ground!
[16:13] Blaze
    Aw, rats. I reduced him to ashes
    before I could torture him.
[16:17] Blaze
    Oh, well. I just need to find Victor.
[16:20] Kiri
    The second possibility
[16:22] Kiri
    is that your fists are fake,
    and you control the flames themselves.
[16:26] Kiri
    In which case, I need to be on the
    lookout for surprise attacks.
[16:32] Kiri
    But if I see them coming and prepare myself,
    I have nothing to fear.
[16:39] Kiri
    You are indeed a nefarious villain.
[16:41] Kiri
    But the fact that you're so easy to read
[16:43] Kiri
    means you're just a rogue
    playing childish tricks.
[16:47] Blaze
    Hey, now...
[16:48] Blaze
    You're a more interesting
    toy than I thought.
[16:56] Mina
    Darling! Darling, where are you?
[17:00] Mina
    Please come out!
[17:03] Mina
    Where could he be?
[17:05] Mina
    Did he really escape to the outside?
[17:07] Mina
    No, Victor was fixated on
    reclaiming the time he's lost.
[17:11] Mina
    He wouldn't give up on it that easily.
[17:15] Mina
    It couldn't be...
[17:22] Victo
    This must be it.
[17:24] Victo
    It's hardly even guarded at all.
[17:39] Victo
    A whole room covered in flowers...
[17:42] Victo
    Talk about a super-dreadnought-class romantic.
[17:56] Victo
    This place is totally mismatched
    with HQ in its design, though.
[18:22] Victo
    Here it is!
[18:24] Victo
    The record of my work from back then!
[18:29] Victo
    Huh?
[18:31] Victo
    Wh-What language is this?
[18:33] Victo
    I can't read this crap!
[18:45] Victo
    January 6th, 2002...
[18:48] Victo
    Which means this was taken twelve years ago.
[18:50] Victo
    And it's a picture of me with...
[18:53] Victo
    Mina.
[18:55] Victo
    Was she really my...
[19:03] Aisrehdar
    Victor?
[19:07] Victo
    Using your sex appeal to get your way?
[19:09] Victo
    That's quite an old-fashioned method.
[19:12] Victo
    I'm all for honey traps, though.
[19:14] Victo
    Want to head straight for the bed?
[19:17] Aisrehdar
    I finally see you after so long,
    and you're as rude as ever.
[19:23] Victo
    After so long?
[19:34] Victo
    Is she an enemy, or...
[19:37] Victo
    At the very least, she doesn't
    have an Oath of Time on her.
[19:41] Victo
    A non-combatant?
[19:43] Aisrehdar
    Would you like tea or something harder?
[19:47] Victo
    Orange juice!
[19:52] Victo
    Just who are you, anyway?
[19:55] Victo
    How do you know me?
[19:58] Aisrehdar
    You really don't remember anything, do you?
[20:01] Victo
    Nope. So if you do know, could you tell me?
[20:06] Victo
    What really happened twelve years ago?
[20:11] Victo
    I did find the record of my work
    for this organization in here.
[20:15] Victo
    But why did I join this Chronos
    organization in the first place?
[20:19] Victo
    And above all,
[20:21] Victo
    how can I get back the time
    that's been taken from me?
[20:26] Aisrehdar
    You're so impatient.
[20:30] Aisrehdar
    Don't be in such a rush.
    I'll explain everything from the start.
[20:33] Aisrehdar
    Let's see...
[20:35] Aisrehdar
    Do you know the origin of "Chronos,"
    this organization's name?
[20:38] Victo
    Nope.
[20:40] Aisrehdar
    Chronos is the god of time.
[20:43] Aisrehdar
    He is a being of legend who keeps the
    flow of all the universe's time stable.
[20:48] Aisrehdar
    Relying on time as his chief sustenance,
[20:50] Aisrehdar
    he subjugated the demons that
    disturbed the ways of the universe.
[20:53] Aisrehdar
    Those demons were the Horologues.
SIGN    Those Demons Were the Horologues
[20:56] Aisrehdar
    Their battle lasted millions of years,
[20:59] Aisrehdar
    and ended in Chronos's victory.
[21:01] [SONG] Text
    Ended in Chronos's Victory
[21:01] Aisrehdar
    But a small number of Horologues survived.
[21:05] Aisrehdar
    For that reason, Chronos tasked his
    descendants with their elimination.
[21:08] [SONG] Text
    Tasked His Descendants With Their Elimination
[21:10] Aisrehdar
    That is why we gather in his name
[21:13] Aisrehdar
    and continue to fight the Horologues.
[21:16] Victo
    That's not what I want
    to hear about, though.
[21:20] Victo
    For starters, I'm an atheist.
[21:23] Victo
    We have to brush off the sparks that
    fall on us with our own hands.
[21:26] Victo
    If a god exists who can save us,
     I'd like to see his face.
[21:32] Aisrehdar
    But you've seen one already.
[21:38] Aisrehdar
    I'm saying...
[21:44] Aisrehdar
    There is a god
[21:46] Aisrehdar
    standing right in front of you!

[01:03] Victo
    The record of my work from back then!
[01:05] Victo
    Huh?
[01:06] Victo
    Wh-What language is this?
[01:08] Victo
    I can't read this crap!
[01:16] Aisrehdar
    Victor?
[01:20] Victo
    If a god exists who can save us,
    I'd like to see his face.
[01:25] Aisrehdar
    But you've seen one already.
[01:32] Aisrehdar
    I'm saying...
[01:38] Aisrehdar
    There is a god
[01:40] Aisrehdar
    standing right in front of you!
[01:50] Victo
    What was that?
[01:52] Victo
    If I'd jumped back an
    instant later, I'd be dead.
[01:56] Aisrehdar
    I am the one and only true descendant
    of the god of time, Chronos,
[02:02] Aisrehdar
    and the master of Chronos, the organization
     that subjugates Horologues...
[02:05] Aisrehdar
    Aisrehdar.
[02:07] Aisrehdar
    I carry within me blood that has flowed
    since the universe was created,
[02:11] Aisrehdar
    and have devoted my being to the subjugation
    of Horologues far longer than you have.
[02:18] Aisrehdar
    There's no need to be so afraid.
[02:23] Aisrehdar
    I'll only be taking back the
    UNIQUE you bear in your chest.
[02:29] Aisrehdar
    Once that's done, I'll put you in bed...
[02:35] Aisrehdar
    to sleep.

[04:20] Victo
    My Slow Down was released?!
[04:23] Aisrehdar
    What did I tell you?
[04:24] Aisrehdar
    I am the descendant of a god.
[04:27] Aisrehdar
    All things in creation are under my control.
[04:30] Victo
    Chronos Rulers can only control
    objects within a set range.
[04:34] Victo
    If I can get some distance between us...
[04:38] Victo
    My body...
[04:42] Victo
    This is... Slow Down!
[04:43] Victo
    She's controlling my body?!
[04:47] Aisrehdar
    UNIQUE is my own weapon,
    which was lost 2,200 years ago.
[04:53] Aisrehdar
    No...
[04:55] Aisrehdar
    Not a weapon, but more like a
    booster that increases the range
[04:59] Aisrehdar
    and strength of my control of time.
[05:02] Aisrehdar
    Without UNIQUE, my power is
    now weaker than it once was,
[05:08] Aisrehdar
    but still, all things in
    creation are under my control,
[05:11] Aisrehdar
    and that includes all living beings.
[05:17] Aisrehdar
    To put an immediate end to the
    battle against the Horologues,
[05:21] Aisrehdar
    the UNIQUE is absolutely necessary.
[05:25] Aisrehdar
    Don't hate me for this, Victor.
[05:28] Victo
    Whoa, whoa, whoa!
[05:29] Victo
    Total control over everything?!

    Don't cry, Mina.
[07:53] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    She lived more than long enough.
[07:56] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    It was simply her time.
[07:58] (Flashback) Mina

[08:00] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    To us, who live eternal lives thanks
    to the blood of Chronos within us,
[08:05] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    human life seems terribly fleeting.
[08:10] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    Your mother and friends, as well,
[08:13] (Flashback) Aisrehdar

[08:18] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    They will leave nothing behind

[08:28] (Flashback) Mina
    My mother...
SIGN    An Inconvenient Truth
[08:32] (Flashback) Mina
    was always a very tough woman.
[08:35] (Flashback) Mina

    Yet, in the end...
[08:45] (Flashback) Mina
    Was it really...
[08:47] (Flashback) Mina
    "just her time"?
[08:54] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    The power of the god who controls time
[08:57] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    is passed on to his descendants.
[09:00] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    You do not yet have the god's power,
[09:03] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    but if I should lose my life,
[09:07] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    you must inherit my power
[09:08] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    and carry on the subjugation
    of the Horologues.
[09:12] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    This is the duty you were born with.
[09:19] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    I offer you this warning
    as your elder sister.
[09:23] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    Engrave your duty in your heart,
[09:25] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    and never let it be undone by any human.
[09:30] (Flashback) Aisrehdar
    Otherwise, you will be the one to suffer.

[14:16] Victo
    I don't quite understand it, either,

    but it looks like she missed the vital spot.
[14:31] Mina
    Darling!

    I'm so glad you're safe!
[14:37] Mina
    Thank you for staying alive.
[14:41] Mina
    Don't leave me behind again!

    All this time, I thought her

[15:42] Mina
    Okay!
[15:48] Mina
    Sister!
[15:50] Aisrehdar
    Before you start speaking of love,
[15:52] Aisrehdar
    you need to think about defending
    your own life, Victor!
[16:05] Victo
    If I keep myself on the
    receiving end, she'll kill me.
[16:07] Victo
    I have to attack!
[16:08] Mina
    Darling!
[16:10] Mina
    Wait, Sist—
[16:15] Victo
    I have no choice. It beats dying!
[16:17] Victo
    Speed Up!
[16:27] Victo
    I used Speed Up, but I'm not losing my time?
[16:32] Mina
    Darling?
[16:33] Aisrehdar
    It appears the repair was successful.
[16:37] Victo
    Huh?
[16:39] Aisrehdar
    The UNIQUE inside you
[16:43] Aisrehdar
    is the one I lost when fighting
    Horologues 2,200 years ago.
[16:49] Aisrehdar
    The damage it took then made it
    unable to fully realize its power.
[16:56] Aisrehdar
    So what I did before was just to repair it.
[17:00] Aisrehdar
    In other words, you can now
    use Speed Up all you want
[17:05] Aisrehdar
    without concern for the wound in your chest.
[17:08] Victo
    You weren't trying to kill me?
[17:10] Aisrehdar
    The information you gave Chronos
    when you returned alive
[17:15] Aisrehdar
    from the Horologue nest twelve years ago...
[17:19] Aisrehdar
    was extremely valuable.
[17:22] Aisrehdar
    Far more so than your life.
[17:26] Aisrehdar
    So I only left UNIQUE with you until
    you managed to regain your lost time.
[17:34] Victo
    I get it.
[17:36] Victo
    So everything that's
    happened since I got here
[17:39] Victo
    was a test to determine whether
    or not I'm capable of protecting UNIQUE.
[17:43] Victo
    How'd I do? Not half bad, right?
[17:46] Victo
    If you're not satisfied, there's one
    last thing I've saved up to show you.
[17:50] Victo
    My true strength as a man, that is.
[17:53] Mina
    Darling!
[17:57] Aisrehdar
    Don't get the wrong idea.
[18:02] Aisrehdar
    Your test is only just beginning.
[18:06] Aisrehdar
    If you can defeat me,
[18:08] Aisrehdar
    I'll acknowledge you as
    worthy of possessing UNIQUE.
[18:12] Mina
    Sister!
[18:15] Aisrehdar
    There's no need to worry.
[18:18] Aisrehdar
    I won't exercise direct
    control over your body.
[18:22] Victo
    I should've known it wouldn't be that simple.
[18:25] Victo
    And? What if I lose?
[18:28] Aisrehdar
    If you do, you will return UNIQUE to me.
[18:32] Aisrehdar
    And I will then eliminate
    every last Horologue myself.
[18:38] Victo
    I see.
[18:40] Victo
    So my life is literally on the line.
[18:43] Victo
    Sounds fun.
[18:45] Victo
    I'll take that bet!
SIGN    Slow Down
[18:51] Mina
    Please, stop this, both of you!

[19:25] Victo
    She's tough.
[19:27] Victo
    She's controlling all the

[19:30] Victo
    Everything but my body itself.
[19:32] Victo
    Of course, that includes my cards.
[19:34] Aisrehdar
    What's wrong?
[19:36] Aisrehdar
    Is that all there is to your "true strength"?
[19:41] Victo
    A good gambler doesn't play

[19:51] Aisrehdar

    on a wall of cards,
[19:54] Aisrehdar

[20:18] Mina

[20:20] Victo

[20:37] Aisrehdar

[20:41] Victo
    Exactly.
[20:43] Victo
    I made a wall of Slowed Down cards,
SIGN    Slow Down x 1000

[21:02] Victo
    And the result was the blast you just saw.
[21:06] Victo
    The double Speed Up allowed the cards to gain
    a level of speed not ordinarily possible.
[21:12] Victo
    I guess you could call it a
    super-powered card missile.
[21:17] Victo
    And there's one other thing I figured out.
[21:20] Victo
    You may be a god,
[21:22] Victo
    but that doesn't nullify my
    own ability to control time.
[21:26] Victo
    The control of time can only be
    countered by controlling time.
[21:31] Victo
    This is what it means to
    fight under the same rules.
[21:35] Victo
    In other words, even a god is not absolute.
[21:44] Victo
    Well? Is that all there is
    to your "true strength"?

[03:13] Blaze

[03:15] Blaze
    Being a villain feels so great!
[03:18] Blaze

[03:30] Kiri
    You take pleasure in hurting others.
[03:33] Kiri

[03:40] Blaze
    Huh? Hurting others?
[03:42] Blaze
    There's a lot more to my evil than that!
[03:46] Blaze
    Okay, then. I'll tell you a little story.
[03:52] Blaze
    Once upon a time, in a small village,
    there lived two children.
[03:59] Blaze
    Boy A was a good, kind boy
[04:01] Blaze
    who always tried to help others.
[04:03] (Flashback) BoyA
    Think nothing of it, ma'am.
[04:06] (Flashback) BoyA
    I just want to help
    everyone as much as I can.
[04:09] Blaze
    All the villagers liked him
[04:11] Blaze
    and felt sure he'd have a bright future.
[04:15] Blaze
    Boy B, on the other hand, was mean and nasty.
[04:19] Blaze
    He spent every day making mischief
    and bullying weaker children.
[04:22] Blaze
    He was a nuisance to everyone.
[04:24] Blaze
    Naturally, the villagers
    quickly gave up on Boy B.
[04:28] Blaze
    But...
[04:32] (Flashback) BoyA
    Hey, you shouldn't do that.
[04:39] (Flashback) BoyA
    It seems like it's hurting
    you more than anyone else.
[04:43] Blaze
    The soft-hearted Boy A tried
    to straighten out Boy B.
[04:49] Blaze
    But B only felt disgusted by
    A's abnormally virtuous nature.
[04:56] Blaze
    Then, one night,
[04:58] Blaze
    B called A out with him and
    led him into the fields...
[05:21] Blaze
    Then he burned down the windmill,
    right before A's eyes!
[05:30] Blaze
    Both boys were found at the scene,
    and the villagers were furious.
[05:34] (Flashback) Man
    Honestly, you again?
[05:37] (Flashback) Woman
    There's just no helping you.
[05:40] Blaze
    But it wasn't B who took
    the brunt of their anger.
[05:44] (Flashback) Woman
    How could you do something so terrible?
[05:47] Blaze
    It all fell on A, who was innocent.
[05:49] (Flashback) Woman
    You pretended to be a good boy to fool us!
[05:53] (Flashback) BoyA
    No!

    He can't be trusted at all.
[05:56] (Flashback) Woman
    What a wretched child!
[05:57] (Flashback) BoyA
    I was just...

    Why?

    Why won't you believe me?!
SIGN    I Was Always a Good Boy
[06:08] (Flashback) Woman
    You are nothing but lying scum!
[06:19] Blaze
    And so, A learned just
    how unfair this world is.
[06:23] Blaze
    A single incident staged to draw suspicion
    canceled out a lifetime of virtue.
[06:28] Blaze
    In fact, everyone thought all
    his good deeds had been a lie,
[06:32] Blaze
    making their disappointment
    and hatred even greater.
[06:37] Blaze
    From that day forth, Boy A decided
[06:40] Blaze
    to become the most evil villain in the world!
[06:45] Blaze
    Being evil means I don't have
    to be tied down by anyone!
[06:50] Blaze
    I am free!
[06:58] Blaze
    Did I take it too far this time?
[07:01] Blaze
    With luck, he might barely be aliv—
[07:06] Kiri
    So you're still dragging childhood
    trauma around with you?
[07:10] Kiri
    Now I understand. You've always been
[07:13] Kiri
    simple-minded.
[07:15] Blaze
    You hardened the water using Slow Down,
[07:17] Blaze
    then used Speed Up to launch it at me?
[07:19] Blaze
    Isn't your Oath of Time an old model?!
[07:22] Blaze
    How can you use Speed Up and
    Slow Down simultaneously?!
[07:26] Kiri
    Did you think I wouldn't
    have made preparations
[07:29] Kiri
    before coming to a seedy place like this?
[07:40] (Flashback) Kiri
    Forgive me.
[07:46] Kiri
    I swapped my Oath of Time
[07:48] Kiri
    with the newer model that Mina had.
[07:52] Kiri
    My intention was to limit her
    power if it became necessary,
[07:57] Kiri
    but it proved useful in ways I didn't expect.
[08:08] Blaze
    Now that's fun! That's really damn fun!
[08:10] Blaze
    It's been ages since I got
    to play a game this exciting!
SIGN    True Rain of a Thousand Camps
[08:31] Kiri
    Isn't the destructive power of a water blade
    solidified with Slow Down incredible?
[08:36] Kiri
    Fire can't be solidified like water,
    after all, since it isn't a physical object.
[08:41] Kiri
    You can't defend against it.
[08:43] Blaze
    Not half bad.
[08:45] Blaze
    Defeating you will bring me a step closer
    to being the most evil villain in the world!
[08:50] Kiri
    Stubborn fool!

[09:00] Kiri
    If his Speed Up surpasses
    my Slow Down in strength,
[09:03] Kiri
    my blade of solidified water will evaporate.
[09:06] Kiri
    He's strong!
[09:08] Kiri
    Is one's power as a Chronos Ruler
    proportionate to the strength of his will?
[09:12] Kiri
    The best Slow Down I can
    manage right now is 1/2,700.
[09:16] Kiri
    But the strength of his will
    clearly surpasses that!
[09:20] Kiri
    I'm running low on spare water.
[09:23] Kiri
    What do I do?
[09:26] Blaze
    My ambition is to become
    the world's #1 villain!
[09:29] Blaze
    What about you?
[09:31] Blaze
    I won't ever lose to a guy
    who doesn't even have a goal!
[09:36] Kiri
    A goal...
[09:43] Kiri
    I do have one!
[09:47] Kiri
    Victor's time...
[09:49] Kiri
    To get his time back is my goal!
[09:52] Kiri
    To achieve that, I'll take down
    any enemy standing in my path!
[09:58] Blaze
    You're in this for someone else?
[10:00] Blaze
    You can't beat me with
    sanctimonious drivel like that!
[10:03] Kiri
    It's not for him!
[10:05] Kiri
    There are a million things
    I want to say to him.
[10:08] Kiri
    But I'm the only one who remembers any of it.
[10:13] Kiri
    They're all memories he's lost.
[10:16] Kiri
    Right now, even though Victor is my father,
[10:19] Kiri
    he's a complete stranger to me!
[10:28] Blaze
    Your father?
[10:30] Blaze
    Victor is your father?
[10:32] Kiri
    A villain like you wouldn't understand
[10:35] Kiri
    what it's like when your own father's age
    regresses until he's become a total stranger.
[10:40] Kiri
    No, someone who means
    even less to you than that!
[10:48] Blaze
    What the hell, man?
[10:50] Blaze
    I didn't know you had such a tragic past!
[10:53] Kiri
    Huh?
[10:55] Blaze
    Master's such an idiot.
[10:57] Blaze
    She didn't tell me anything about that!
[11:00] Kiri
    A-Are you... crying?
[11:03] Blaze
    Moron! Villains don't cry!
[11:05] Blaze
    This is sweat! I'm just hot
    from controlling all that fire!
[11:09] Blaze
    Anyway, I get it now!
[11:10] Blaze
    The bad guy making you suffer is the
    Horologue that devoured Victor's time, right?
[11:14] Blaze
    I'll beat up that jerk and
    become more evil than it is!
[11:18] Blaze
    For you... no, for the sake of my ambition,
    I'll kill that Horologue!
[11:24] Blaze
    So don't let anyone else
    beat you until then, okay?
[11:27] Blaze
    I'm the only one who's
    allowed to pick on you!
[11:31] Kiri
    He's...
[11:33] Kiri
    ...really still the good kid, Boy A.
[11:38] Blaze
    That settles it!
[11:40] Blaze
    Starting today, you're my little brother!
[11:42] Kiri
    Huh?!
[11:43] Blaze
    We're blood brothers!
[11:45] Blaze
    Starting today, I'm gonna look
    after you as your big brother!
[11:49] Kiri
    Are you nuts?
[11:50] Blaze
    I'm serious!
[11:51] Kiri
    Look, I don't even care.
[11:54] Kiri
    If you're not going to fight anymore,
    then get out of my way.
[11:57] Kiri
    I don't have time to play
    along with your weird jokes.
[12:02] Kiri
    Your master is trying
    to kill Victor right now.
[12:06] Blaze
    Huh? What're you talking about?
    Don't get the wrong idea.
[12:10] Blaze
    The master never had any
    intention of killing Victor.
[12:13] Kiri
    What?
[12:14] Blaze
    In fact, she's probably repairing
    his broken UNIQUE right now.
[12:19] Blaze
    Of course, if she learned while fighting him
[12:24] Blaze
    that he's not worthy of UNIQUE,
[12:26] Blaze
    I can't guess what'll happen to him.
[12:30] Blaze
    H-Hey! You okay, Little Bro?!
[12:33] Blaze
    Who did this to—
[12:35] Blaze
    Oh, right. I did.
[12:38] Blaze
    What do I do? Actually... wait...

    Well? Is that all there is
    to your "true strength"?

    will work on me again?

[13:14] Aisrehdar
    Slow Down!
SIGN    Slow Down
[13:16] Aisrehdar
    Shallow tactics like that will
    only lead to your pointless death.
[13:19] Aisrehdar
    Maybe you really aren't good enough
    to be entrusted with UNIQUE.
[13:27] Aisrehdar
    Why aren't they falling?
[13:29] Aisrehdar
    I offset the Speed Up effect on his cards!
[13:36] Aisrehdar
    What's the meaning of this?
[13:38] Victo
    You were convinced that I'd used
    the same move a second time.
[13:42] Victo
    By then, you were already caught in my trap.
[13:46] Victo
    Not all of the cards I used were Sped Up.
[13:50] Victo
    It applies what I explained earlier.
[13:52] Victo
    Normal cards with nothing done to them were
    layered over some of the Sped Up cards.
[13:57] Victo
    When you used Slow Down on those,
SIGN    Slow Down
[13:59] Victo
    the Sped Up cards were offset and fell,
SIGN    Slow Down
SIGN    Slow Down
[14:02] Victo
    but the normal cards were
    Slowed Down and held in place.
[14:07] Victo
    In other words, the cards
    holding you in place
[14:10] Victo
    were Slowed Down by you yourself.
[14:14] Victo
    And there's one other thing I've learned.
[14:17] Victo
    Your ability to control time is powerful,
[14:19] Victo
    but its area of effect is very small.
[14:22] Victo
    Three meters at most, I'd say.
[14:26] Victo
    In other words, as long as I
    don't go near you, I'm safe.
[14:30] Victo
    Oh, and while I'm at it, I should warn you...
[14:33] Victo
    That chain of cards holding you in place
[14:35] Victo
    have been Sped Up or Slowed Down at random.
[14:38] Victo
    If you can't tell which is which,
    you're better off just staying still.
[14:42] Victo
    Now... I have five cards left.
[14:46] Victo
    But...
[14:48] Victo
    They're the strongest hand,
    a royal straight flush.
[14:51] ---
    Darling!
[14:53] Victo
    Do you still want to continue this fight?
[14:56] Victo
    If you want to fold, now's the time.
[14:59] Aisrehdar
    It's true that a royal straight
    flush is the strongest hand.
[15:03] Aisrehdar
    But...
[15:05] Aisrehdar
    That's nothing more than
    a rule you humans made up!
[15:09] Aisrehdar
    Speed Up!
[15:17] Victo
    She's gone.
[15:19] Victo
    Did she force the chain to
    break with a super Speed Up?
[15:22] Victo
    But if she did, the Sped Up cards
    should've ripped her body apart, too.
[15:28] Aisrehdar
    In my veins flows the blood
    of the god Chronos.
[15:31] Victo
    Where is she?!
[15:32] Aisrehdar
    All things in creation are under my control.
[15:41] Aisrehdar
    Flowers, wind, grass, rain...
[15:46] Victo
    How is she so fast?
[15:47] Victo
    My eyes can't even follow her!
[15:49] Aisrehdar
    All things prostrate themselves before me,
[15:52] Aisrehdar
    and all commands I give them are absolute.

    That includes even the cells in my own body.

    Darling!
[17:06] Aisrehdar
    You're more resilient than I thought.
[17:09] Aisrehdar
    To think you avoided my
    finishing blow in your state.
[17:13] Victo
    You blew my mind.
[17:16] Victo
    I can't believe you can control
    your own body's components.
[17:20] Victo
    No wonder you call yourself a god.
[17:24] Victo
    And if you're a god,
    I need to pay my respects.
[17:28] Aisrehdar
    You still wish to resist me?
[17:31] Victo
    Feel free to think of it
    as struggling in vain.
[17:34] Victo
    Either way, this will be the last game.
[17:42] Victo
    These are the four cards I have showing.
[17:47] Victo
    What's this? I'm one ace short
    of my royal straight flush.
[17:51] Victo
    Where did I put my trump card?
[17:57] Aisrehdar
    I won't fall for that.
[17:59] Aisrehdar
    Drawing my attention to
    a major miscalculation,
[18:03] Aisrehdar
    or "misdirection," is a
    basic magician's technique.
[18:06] Aisrehdar
    The longer I listen to you,
    the deeper I fall into your trap...
[18:11] Aisrehdar
    In which case I need only finish
    you off before you finish.
[18:15] Victo
    You're supposed to listen until
    people are finished talking!
[18:18] Victo
    For a god, you're awfully impatient.
[18:21] Aisrehdar
    Just keep talking.
[18:22] Aisrehdar
    Speed Up!
[18:25] Victo
    One, two...
[18:30] Victo
    Damn it!
[18:31] Victo
    One, two...
[18:34] Aisrehdar
    What's wrong? Finished already?
[18:39] Aisrehdar
    This wouldn't have been enough
    to deadlock you back in the day.
[18:44] Aisrehdar
    What a shame.
[18:46] Aisrehdar
    I supposed you aren't fit to
    possess UNIQUE, after all.
[18:50] Victo
    One, two... three!
SIGN    Slow Down
[19:00] Aisrehdar
    He Slowed Down my right hand?!
[19:03] Aisrehdar
    How can a human control part of my body?
[19:07] Aisrehdar
    Inconceivable!
[19:11] Victo
    Her speed after using that
    super Speed Up on herself
[19:13] Victo
    is probably several times faster
    than the speed of sound.
[19:17] Victo
    It's impossible to track with
    a human's reaction speed.
[19:21] Victo
    So what I need to do
[19:24] Victo
    is make it look like I'm controlling
    her time, and her body itself.
[19:30] Victo
    The brief opening that gives me
[19:33] Victo
    might not even amount to half a second.
[19:36] Victo
    But...
[19:44] Victo
    It's more than enough time
    to finish this fight.
[19:58] Aisrehdar
    So that's it.
[20:01] Aisrehdar
    My right hand, my body itself,
[20:04] Aisrehdar
    wasn't under your control at all.
[20:07] Aisrehdar
    It was just the effect of
    your Slowed Down cards.
[20:10] Aisrehdar
    Mere fragments of ripped ones, at that.
[20:14] Victo
    Exactly.
[20:17] Victo
    I planted them in your right arm
    when you went for the final strike.
[20:22] Victo
    Even in pieces, they're still
    cards under my control.
[20:29] Victo
    All that was left was to activate
    Slow Down at the right instant.
[20:33] Victo
    It wasn't as easy as I make it sound, though.
[20:37] Victo
    It's pointless if I'm too far from you,
[20:39] Victo
    but coming too close will get me killed.
[20:42] Victo
    This battle was literally
    fought on a hair's breadth.
[20:45] Victo
    Thankfully, though your attacks
    were fast, they were monotonous.
[20:48] Victo
    In that sense, luck was on my side.
[20:53] Victo
    That's why it's in your best interest to
    listen until people are finished talking.
[20:59] Victo
    Didn't I tell you at the start?
[21:02] Victo
    The ace is my trump card.
[21:08] Victo
    So, I guess our showdown is over now.
[21:11] Mina
    Darling!
[21:17] Aisrehdar
    If Victor hadn't stopped his
    hand on that last attack,
[21:22] Aisrehdar
    it unquestionably would have killed me.
[21:28] Aisrehdar
    Very well.
[21:29] Aisrehdar
    I acknowledge that you are
    worthy of possessing UNIQUE.

    Your son is worried to death about you!
[00:12] Kiri
    Would you please stop? This is humiliating.
[00:16] Blaze
    There's nothing to be humiliated about!
[00:17] Blaze
    This is no different than a

    What's wrong with a big brother

    Don't just decide I'm your little brother!

    Ah, I commend you on a job

[00:30] Snake
    Victor is safe as well,
    so please don't worry.
[00:33] Snake
    You have now completed your test.
[00:36] Kiri
    Test?
[02:10] Snake
    Oh, now, don't make that face.
[02:13] Snake
    This wasn't what I wanted, either.
[02:15] Snake
    But the master ordered me to
    test the extent of your skills.
[02:20] Snake
    I had no choice but to set all this up.
[02:23] Blaze
    Well, now you know.
[02:27] Snake
    I realize this is upsetting to you,
[02:29] Snake
    but my beloved school uniforms were
    taken hostage! I had no choice!
[02:36] Kiri
    Is there no one remotely normal in Chronos?
[02:40] Snake
    Now, all joking aside...
[02:42] Snake
    Kiri, you and Victor have come here
[02:45] Snake
    in search of his past, correct?
[02:48] Snake
    More specifically, you want
[02:52] Snake
    to acquire the record of Victor's work here.
[02:55] Kiri
    That's right.
[02:56] Snake
    That record is indeed kept here.
[03:00] Snake
    But everything in it was
    written in strange characters
[03:04] Snake
    that may or may not be some sort of code.
[03:07] Snake
    Chronos's technology division
    has been trying to analyze it,
[03:12] Snake
    but we've yet to uncover
    a way to decipher it.
[03:15] Snake
    Since he was rarely present at headquarters,
[03:17] Snake
    Victor was, and always has been,
    a man of many mysteries.
[03:21] Snake
    We didn't even know he had a son.
[03:25] Snake
    So all I can tell you at this time is that
    we don't know anything about his past.
[03:31] Snake
    I do apologize.
[03:32] Kiri
    I guess it really won't be that simple.
[03:39] Snake
    He is currently working with the technology
    division to attempt to decipher his record.
[03:44] Snake
    Perhaps he, himself, may be able to read it.
[03:47] Kiri
    Victor can?
[03:49] Kiri
    He really is desperate
[03:51] Kiri
    to get back the time and memories
    that were taken from him.
[04:00] Victo
    Oh, Kiri!
[04:02] Victo
    Glad to see you're safe.
[04:07] Victo
    The technology division's nothing but babes.
[04:09] Victo
    Care to join us?
[04:11] Wendy
    Oh? Who's this?
[04:13] Victo
    This is my pure-hearted son, dear Stiller.
[04:15] Wendy
    I told you, my name is Wendy.
[04:18] Wendy
    Was twelve years long enough
    for you to forget?
[04:21] Victo
    Sorry about that. I'll write it down.
[04:24] Victo
    And what about the little cutie over there?
[04:26] Laner
    Um, my name is Laner.
[04:28] Laner
    I was still a young child twelve years ago,
[04:30] Laner
    so you might not remember me.
[04:33] Victo
    I would never forget a beauty like you.
[04:37] Laner
    Gosh, Victor, you're embarrassing me!
[04:40] Victo
    And how about the blonde there?
[04:41] Isabele
    My name's Isabele.
[04:44] Isabele
    Um... is the promise you made that night
    twelve years ago still in effect?
[04:49] Victo
    Huh? What promise?
[04:51] Isabele
    You're going to make me
    say it? You're so mean...

    MB for short.

[05:13] Kiri
    It's no use. I can't see any

    I can't entrust this to Victor.
[05:19] Kiri
    I'll have to do it.
[05:21] Kiri

    A few days ago, in a town
    called C'est La Vie,
[05:30] Kiri
    we encountered the Horologue
    that took Victor's time.
[05:33] Kiri
    It was enormous and white all over.
[05:37] Kiri
    It could even speak.
[05:38] Kiri
    It was clearly nothing like the
    Horologues we'd encountered before.
[05:43] Kiri
    Have any Horologues like
    that ever appeared before?
[05:46] Snake
    All white and able to speak...
[05:49] Snake
    I'm sorry, but I haven't heard of any
    accounts that might answer your question.
[05:54] Snake
    Except...
[05:55] Kiri
    Except?
[05:56] Snake
    I have had a few encounters with Horologues
    that had linguistic capabilities.
[06:01] Snake
    As you know, the principal diet
    of Horologues is human time.
[06:06] Snake
    They act instinctively and
    have no will of their own.
[06:10] Snake
    But it seems that, with every
    bit of time they consume,
[06:13] Snake
    they also take in a proportionate
    amount of memories,
[06:16] Snake
    which eventually leads to the
    development of consciousness.
[06:19] Snake
    Of course, a thousand years' worth of
    time makes a Horologue animal-like,
[06:24] Snake
    and at that stage,
    the sprouting of simple emotions
[06:27] Snake
    and emergence of learning
    ability have been observed.
[06:30] Snake
    And once they've consumed five
    thousand years' worth of time,
[06:33] Snake
    it's said that they can understand human
    language and even speak with them.
[06:40] Snake
    But this is only what I've
    seen in written accounts
[06:43] Snake
    and heard directly from our master.
[06:46] Snake
    In twenty years, I have not encountered
    a Horologue that could speak.
[06:50] Kiri
    I see.
[06:52] Snake
    Do you believe
[06:53] Snake
    that if you defeat the Horologue
    that consumed Victor's time,
[06:56] Snake
    you can regain the time he's lost?
[07:04] Snake
    I thought as much.
[07:05] Snake
    I can't deny that.
    If you defeat a Horologue,
[07:08] Snake
    it may be possible to reclaim
    the time that it had devoured.
[07:11] Snake
    In particular, if you defeat one
    that has just recently fed,
[07:14] Snake
    there is data pointing to a high probability
    that the time it had eaten can be reclaimed.
[07:19] Snake
    But if too much time passes
    after it has been consumed,
[07:22] Snake
    recovery is no longer possible.
[07:25] Snake
    There is no precedent for time
    being reclaimed after that point.
[07:27] Kiri
    Realistically, how long might one have to
    recover time once a Horologue has taken it?
[07:34] Snake
    The time limit we have arrived at after
    many years of experimentation is...
[07:41] Snake
    sixty seconds, maximum.
[07:51] Kiri
    Time can only be reclaimed
[07:53] Kiri
    if the Horologue is defeated within
    sixty seconds after consuming it...
[07:59] Kiri
    Doesn't that mean it's hopeless?
[08:04] Kiri
    Is that Victor's room?
[08:15] Kiri
    Victor, I'm coming in.
[08:26] Kiri
    Victor?
[08:28] Victo
    Oh, it's you, Kiri. You're still up?
[08:31] Victo
    Good timing. I was just starting
    to get a clear picture.
[08:35] Kiri
    You mean you actually deciphered it?!
[08:38] Victo
    Yep. These characters were my
    own suggestion a long time ago.
[08:42] Victo
    Each symbol represents three
    letters of the alphabet.
[08:46] Kiri
    Is there some sort of rule
    for how they're assigned?
[08:49] Victo
    These are all girls' names.
[08:52] Victo
    I wrote the names of all the
    girls I met that year in order
[08:55] Victo
    and assigned one character
    to every three letters.
[08:57] Kiri
    I get it!
[08:59] Kiri
    You were trying to decipher your
    memories of twelve years ago earlier!
[09:02] Kiri
    That's why you were getting the
    names of girls you met back then!
[09:06] Victo
    Exactly!
[09:07] Victo
    I wasn't just playing around.
[09:09] Victo
    I was gathering information,
    in all seriousness.
[09:14] Victo
    Of course, while I did decipher it,
[09:17] Victo
    it was all stuff about girls.
[09:19] Victo
    There was hardly anything in
    it about the work I did here.
[09:23] Kiri
    Oh, come on!
[09:24] Victo
    But this day here...
[09:27] Victo
    July 21st, 2002.
[09:30] Victo
    This is the only date
    with a detailed record.
[09:33] Kiri
    Six days before it happened!
[09:34] Kiri
    Which means this is...
[09:37] Victo
    Yes. It was the last mission I carried out.
[09:41] Kiri
    Great! Then there must be
    some other clues here!
[09:45] Kiri
    Like the location and mission description,
[09:46] Kiri
    as well as information
    on the white Horologue!
[09:49] Victo
    Yeah. In fact, I did find
    something of interest.
[09:52] Kiri
    Records from the plane you boarded
    on the day of the mission!
[09:56] Kiri
    It has the airport, the time of your flight,
    and your ticket information, too.
[10:00] Kiri
    The destination was...
[10:02] Kiri
    Couljours?
[10:04] Victo
    My hometown.
[10:23] Mina
    Darling!
[10:25] Mina
    Got a second?
[10:29] Mina
    Darling?
[10:38] Aisrehdar
    What brings you here? And why so formal?
[10:40] Victo
    I just came to say goodbye.
[10:43] Victo
    I found information about twelve years ago.
[10:46] Victo
    I'm thinking of going to Couljours.
[10:49] Aisrehdar
    I see. Well, I wish you the best.
[10:53] Victo
    Snake told me something about
    this UNIQUE in my chest.
[10:57] Victo
    He said that with it, the battle against
    the Horologues could quickly end.
[11:01] Victo
    I realize that, but...
[11:06] Victo
    Just give me one month.
[11:08] Victo
    If I fail to reclaim my time
    from the Horologue by then,
[11:11] Victo
    I swear to return UNIQUE to you.
[11:17] Aisrehdar
    A commendable attitude.
[11:19] Aisrehdar
    Don't worry. Even if UNIQUE is returned,
[11:23] Aisrehdar
    it would only increase my
    own fighting capability.
[11:26] Aisrehdar
    It wouldn't have much of an
    effect in the strategic sense.
[11:30] Aisrehdar
    Since the new Oath of Time
    model came into use,
[11:33] Aisrehdar
    our agents have been returning home
    alive at a vastly increased rate.
[11:37] Aisrehdar
    There's still room for
    more research, of course,
[11:39] Aisrehdar
    but at a tactical level,
    that's more than good enough.
[11:42] Aisrehdar
    So don't feel too bad.
[11:45] Victo
    I see. I understand now.
[11:48] Victo
    There's one more thing
    I'd like you to tell me.
[11:51] Victo
    Is Mina really my wife?
[11:55] Victo
    Something's always felt off about it.
[11:58] Victo
    If she were really my wife,
[12:00] Victo
    wouldn't she be trying harder to
    help me get my lost time back?
[12:04] Victo
    But she was different.
[12:08] (Flashback) Mina
    Let's build a new future together!
[12:14] Aisrehdar
    Actually, I had DNA tests
    done on Mina and Kiri.
[12:19] Aisrehdar
    In utmost secrecy, of course.
[12:22] Aisrehdar
    The result:
[12:23] Aisrehdar
    those two are not blood relatives.
[12:26] Victo
    I see...
[12:28] Victo
    So that means she's not my wife, either.
[12:30] Aisrehdar
    We can't be certain of that.
[12:32] Aisrehdar
    Mina's genes aren't like
    those of normal people.
[12:36] Aisrehdar
    Descendants of Chronos, the god of time,
[12:39] Aisrehdar
    experience a change in their
    DNA when they turn 18.
[12:42] Aisrehdar
    They also cease to age,
[12:44] Aisrehdar
    and their blood takes on the
    ability to purify Horologues.
[12:48] Aisrehdar
    They become something completely inhuman.
[12:51] Aisrehdar
    Now you see why she wasn't affected
    by the Horologue's bite, do you not?
[12:56] Victo
    So you're saying we'll need to
    test Kiri's DNA once he turns 18
[13:03] Victo
    in order to find out for sure if
    he's related by blood to Mina?
[13:07] Victo
    Which means even you can't say for
    sure whether Mina is my wife or not.
[13:13] Aisrehdar
    Long ago, when you and Mina were a team...
[13:18] Aisrehdar
    She kept saying she wanted to
    marry you and have a child.
[13:23] Aisrehdar
    But even though I knew how
    badly she wanted a family,
[13:27] Aisrehdar
    I could not give her my support.
[13:31] Aisrehdar
    So, of course, I turned
    a deaf ear to her pleas.
[13:34] Aisrehdar
    And after you went missing,
[13:37] Aisrehdar
    I was sure that her zeal
    would eventually fade.
[13:43] Aisrehdar
    But once she learned that you were alive,
[13:46] Aisrehdar
    the look on her face...
[13:48] Aisrehdar
    was that of a wife who had always
    believed her husband was alive
[13:52] Aisrehdar
    and waited for him.
[13:55] Aisrehdar
    I don't know whether you two are
    truly husband and wife or not.
[13:59] Aisrehdar
    But...
[14:00] Aisrehdar
    Her love for you is real.
[14:04] Aisrehdar
    I realized then
[14:06] Aisrehdar
    that there would be no point in killing you.
[14:09] Aisrehdar
    That it wasn't within my power
    to sever the love between you.
[14:15] Aisrehdar
    So please...
[14:19] Aisrehdar
    I want you to release Mina from
    the curse that you are to her.
[14:23] Aisrehdar
    She has a duty to fulfill
    as a descendant of Chronos.
[14:27] Aisrehdar
    Human emotions will cloud her
    resolve as a member of Chronos.
[14:32] Aisrehdar
    That is one thing I cannot abide.
[14:34] Aisrehdar
    So...
[14:37] Aisrehdar
    I don't care how you choose to do it.
[14:39] Aisrehdar
    Just open Mina's eyes.
[14:43] Victo
    I'm afraid I can't promise that.
[14:45] Victo
    Sorry to say so after you've
    gone to such lengths,
[14:48] Victo
    but I'm human, too.
[14:49] Victo
    If Mina isn't really my wife,
    we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
[14:54] Victo
    But if she is my wife,
[14:56] Victo
    as a husband, my only concern is to
    give her all the love I have.
[15:01] Aisrehdar
    I see...
[15:05] Victo
    I can't move!
[15:07] Aisrehdar
    But I still have high hopes
[15:11] Aisrehdar
    that Mina will be released from her curse.
[15:15] Aisrehdar
    Otherwise,
[15:16] Aisrehdar
    you will experience a despair
    more terrifying than death.
SIGN    Wonderful Nightmare
[15:23] Victo
    I should be outside the
    range of her control...
[15:26] Victo
    But everything in the space
    around me is Slowed Down!
[15:29] Victo
    Was she going easy on me last time?
[15:35] Victo
    Threatening me won't change
    my position on the matter.
[15:38] Victo
    So long as Mina loves me,
[15:40] Victo
    it's my obligation to return her love.
[15:43] Aisrehdar
    Then what if Mina has a change of heart?
[15:46] Victo
    I can swear to you that I
    won't try to chase her.
[15:56] Aisrehdar
    I like people who catch on quickly.
[15:59] Aisrehdar
    I expect the best, Victor.
[16:03] Victo
    Damn, she's a cunning woman.
[16:19] Snake
    You're leaving already?
[16:22] Snake
    That was awfully fast.
[16:24] Snake
    I was hoping to have a nice, leisurely
    chat with Victor about school uniforms.
[16:28] Mina
    Well, we actually managed to find a lead!
[16:31] Mina
    We can't just sit around! Right, Victor?
[16:35] Kiri
    You're coming, too?
[16:37] Mina
    Of course! My sister gave her approval!
[16:40] Snake
    Well, I'm glad my farewell
    gift arrived in time.
[16:44] Snake
    Those new outfits look
    wonderful on you both.
[16:48] Snake
    Your old ones were quite the
    worse for wear, after all.
[16:51] Snake
    And in here are some funds and
    items to use in your travels,
[16:55] Snake
    some powered-up cards, courtesy of
    our technological division, and...
[16:59] Snake
    My top-recommended high
    school girl's uniform!
[17:03] Snake
    Anyway, with this, you are now
    official members of Chronos!
[17:07] Snake
    Also, at the master's orders...
[17:12] Snake
    I hereby name Victor the Seventh Guardian,
[17:15] Snake
    and grant him the title "Ace Ruler."
[17:18] Snake
    I hereby name Kiri the Third Guardian.
[17:21] Snake
    He will inherit the title of his predecessor
    who died in the line of duty: "Splash Ruler."
[17:25] Kiri
    Guardian?
[17:27] Snake
    It's short for "Divine Guardian Rulers."
[17:30] Snake
    The name given to the top
    twelve members of Chronos
[17:32] Snake
    chosen by the master for the
    strength of their rule,
[17:35] Snake
    use of tactics, and other accomplishments.
[17:39] Snake
    By the way, Mina...
[17:44] Snake
    and Blaze are Guardians, as well.
[17:48] Snake
    Divine Ruler Guardians are
    dispersed throughout the world,
[17:52] Snake
    each carrying out greatly
    important missions.
[17:55] Snake
    More than 70% of Horologue subjugation
    is carried out by the Twelve Guardians.
[17:59] Snake
    Some have even defeated more of
    them than the master herself.
[18:03] Snake
    They are truly the best of the best!
[18:06] Snake
    And now you are also Chronos
    Rulers recognized by the master.
[18:10] Snake
    Make sure you spare no effort in
    reclaiming Victor's lost time!
[18:19] Kiri
    By the way, Mina...
[18:21] Kiri
    I need to return this to you.
[18:25] Kiri
    I'm sorry.
[18:27] Mina
    I don't need one that
    you've had your hands on.
[18:31] Mina
    I got a brand new one!
[18:33] Victo
    I can't believe you'd give a
    used one to your own mother!
[18:37] Mina
    You said it! Kids these days have
    no respect for their elders!
[18:42] Mina
    Honestly, what are we going to do with you?

[18:45] Mina
    Hey...
[18:46] Mina
    Let's just ignore him, Darling.
[18:50] Victo
    Yeah. We need to get my time back.
[18:53] Victo
    As soon as we do, I'll be yours alone.
[19:02] Mina
    What if I'm not your real wife?
[19:07] Mina
    You worry about Kiri because
    you're his father,
[19:10] Mina
    and you're kind to me
    because you're my husband.
[19:13] Mina
    You only do all that because you
    feel it's your responsibility.
[19:18] Mina
    Just like my sister. It's all about "duty."
[19:23] Mina
    I don't need that kind of love!
[19:25] Mina
    I want you to love me from
    the bottom of your heart!
[19:28] Mina
    Not because I'm your wife,
    or out of duty or obligation.
[19:31] Mina
    I don't need that!
[19:32] Mina
    I want you to love me for who I am!

    that on this journey.
[20:01] Aisrehdar

SIGN    Slow Down
[04:50] Kiri
    There's no way he could survive
    a fall from this height.
[04:54] Blaze
    Hey! Warn me before you do that!
    You scared the piss outta me!
[04:57] Mina
    You idiot!
[04:58] Mina
    If we'd waited, everyone on board would've
    been eaten, and then it'd be game over!
[05:04] Bill
    You surprised me. That was a nice combo.
[05:10] Bill
    I bet you'd be good at fighting games.
[05:13] Bill
    First you used Slow Down
    to create a wall of air,
[05:16] Bill
    isolating the area around
    the door from the other passengers.
[05:20] Bill
    Then you opened the emergency exit
    and launched us all out.
[05:25] Bill
    I haven't introduced myself, have I?
[05:28] Bill
    My name is Bill Reidan.
[05:30] Bill
    I'm a gamer.
[05:32] Bill
    And...
[05:38] Bill
    This is the servant I've summoned,
[05:41] Bill
    Bahamut!
[05:47] Kiri
    An animal-type Horologue.
[05:49] Bill
    Well, what style should we play?
[05:53] Victo
    Style?
[05:54] Bill
    One-on-one fighting game style,
[05:56] Bill
    or one-on-many RPG style?
[06:01] Victo
    Ah, I get it.
[06:03] Victo
    Sorry, though.
[06:05] Victo
    If you want to play video games,
    play them at home.
[06:08] Victo
    At the very least,
    this is not the place for them.
[06:12] Bill
    Big words.
[06:14] Bill
    Ready...
[06:16] Bill
    Fight!
[06:25] Kiri
    Given its size, that must be at least
    a thousand-year-class Horologue.
[06:31] Kiri
    Maybe it's time to test
    this gift from Snake.
[06:34] Victo
    What're you going to do with a cell phone?
[06:36] Kiri
    This is the problem with you old men.
[06:39] Kiri
    There's an app installed on this
    that analyzes Horologues' data.
[06:43] Miko
    Hi there! My name's Miko!
[06:46] Miko
    I'm a high school girl here to
    help you battle Horologues!
[06:48] Miko
    I hope we'll be great friends, Kiri!
[06:52] Miko
    Before using the app, register your
    user account by looking at me
[06:55] Miko
    and shouting, "I love high
    school girls' panties!"
[07:01] Kiri
    I love high school girls' pan—
[07:04] Kiri
    Like hell I can say that!
[07:06] Kiri
    Damn you, Snake!
[07:12] Victo
    This is the problem with you virgins.
[07:15] Victo
    I'll show you how it's done.
[07:18] Victo
    I love high school girls' panties!
[07:23] Miko
    Eek! Kiri, you're so dirty!
[07:26] Miko
    But that's just the way I like you!
[07:33] Blaze
    Bastard!
[07:47] Miko
    Now to start taking measurements.
[07:49] Miko
    Line up the cursor with the Horologue.
[07:52] Kiri
    Why is this the cursor?
[07:54] Kiri
    Whatever. Have it your way.
SIGN    Measurement Complete
[07:57] Miko
    Measurement complete.
[07:59] Miko
    The target Horologue is
    a form-2 animal type.
[08:02] Miko
    The time it has consumed is...
[08:06] ---
    Wha...
[08:08] Kiri
    I-It's a 3,800-year-class?!
[08:12] Bill
    Hey, come on...
[08:13] Bill
    Is it even fun to play by pecking
    at a little thing like that?
[08:17] Bill
    There's no game more exhilarating
    than the reality we're in right now!
[08:26] Bill
    Oh? You're a water elemental, eh?
[08:29] Bill
    I see. The quiet, composed character,
    just as your looks would imply.
[08:32] Bill
    You've got your backstory down pat.
[08:35] Blaze
    Don't you lay a hand...
[08:37] Blaze
    on my little brother!
SIGN    Slow Down
[08:43] Bill
    A fire elemental, huh?
[08:45] Bill
    That explains the hot temper.
[08:47] Blaze
    Shut up!
[08:48] Blaze
    Instant Destruction by Fire!
[08:51] Bill
    But you know, fire and water elementals...
[09:01] Bill
    cancel each other out!
[09:04] Blaze
    Damn it! I'll teach you to mock me!
[09:07] Mina
    Sounds like you're very perceptive.
[09:09] Mina
    What do you think I am, then?
[09:12] Bill
    Wind elemental.
[09:14] Bill
    The free-spirited wannabe princess
    who hates to be restrained, right?
[09:19] Mina
    Bingo!
[09:25] Mina
    Leave it to a 3,800-year class to have
    this kind of defensive strength.
[09:30] Mina
    But at a time like this,
    if this were a game...
[09:37] Mina
    There's something to be said for
    targeting the summoner instead.
[09:46] Mina
    Game over.
[09:54] Mina
    What's going on? Do you not feel pain?
[09:57] Bill
    Pain? What are you talking about?
[10:00] Bill
    This is a game, you know.
[10:03] Bill
    Why would it hurt?
[10:05] Bill
    Oh, but my HP is already down 50%...
[10:10] Bill
    Well done!
[10:13] Kiri
    He can't even tell reality
    from a video game anymore.
[10:17] Kiri
    Why take this so far?
[10:19] Bill
    Hey, you just thought,
    "Why take this so far?" Didn't you?
[10:23] Bill
    I'll tell you. For me, the real world...
[10:27] Bill
    has turned into a game!
[10:34] Bill
    There's nothing really special about me.
[10:37] Bill
    I have no friends in reality.
[10:39] Bill
    Being in the reality they call
    "school" was genuinely painful.
[11:18] Bill
    It was video games that
    saved me from all that.
[11:21] Bill
    I only truly enjoyed myself
    when playing video games,
[11:25] Bill
    and I even found some people online
    that I could almost call "friends."
[11:30] Bill
    I thought I'd never have to return
    to the reality of "school" again.
[11:50] Bill
    After that, I continued
    living as an invalid would,
[11:55] Bill
    and my only living relative,
    my mother, said nothing.
[11:59] Bill
    She just did everything I told
    her to, like a good servant.
[12:03] Bill
    But then, one day,
[12:06] Bill
    it was suddenly game over.
[12:10] Bill
    She worked herself to death,
[12:11] Bill
    doing both the housework and
    the breadwinning all alone.
[12:21] Bill
    I regretted everything.
[12:24] Bill
    I begged time to turn back.
[12:26] Bill
    And then a man said this to me...
[12:30] Voice
    It's not game over yet.
[12:33] Voice
    If you collect time from other
    people and reverse its flow,
[12:37] Voice
    you can get your mother back.
[12:46] Bill
    Yes... So long as I have this ring,
[12:51] Bill
    I can rewrite the "reality"
    of my past into a game!
[12:56] Bill
    That's why, for me, reality is
[13:00] Bill
    a game!
[13:13] Bill
    Everything is a game!
[13:15] Bill
    I don't have to feel pain,
[13:17] Bill
    and I don't have to worry about anything!
[13:20] Bill
    So come on! How are you
    going to play with me?
[13:40] Bill
    Hey! Where are you going?!
    Don't go that way!
[14:02] Victo
    First of all, we'll need you to
    shut down that crappy console.
[14:12] Victo
    The real world is not a game.
[14:23] Kiri
    Oh, no! It's out of control!
[14:27] Victo
    Slow Down!
[14:28] Victo
    I'll start by hardening my cards!
SIGN    Slow Down
[14:30] Kiri
    Victor!
[14:30] Victo
    Show me UNIQUE's true strength!
SIGN    Slow Down
[14:35] Victo

[14:47] Kiri
    A single strike?
[14:51] Kiri
    So this is the power of UNIQUE,
    the original Oath of Time?
[14:58] Mina
    Really? Is this the time to be zoning out?
[15:09] Bill
    My Bahamut...
[15:25] Kiri
    Is everyone all right?
[15:26] Blaze
    Yeah... Sort of...
[15:43] Bill
    Mom... Mom...
[15:47] Bill
    Did you really die?
[15:51] Bill
    To be honest, I knew it was all real.
[15:56] Bill
    This world isn't a game at all.
[16:24] Victo
    Bill, your mother may be
    gone from this world,
[16:29] Victo
    but you haven't lost your memories of
    the time you spent with her, right?
[16:37] Victo
    That means your mother can live
    forever inside your heart.
[16:44] Bill
    I... I...
[16:50] Bill
    I shut myself in my room every day,
[16:53] Bill
    just playing video games.
[16:57] Bill
    I treated my mom like some kind of slave.
[17:01] Bill
    And I said all kinds of awful things to her.
[17:23] Bill
    And yet, right up to the
    day she left this world,
[17:28] Bill
    I never said, "Thank you," to her even once!
SIGN    I'm sorry
[17:37] Bill
    You're right.
[17:39] Bill
    I haven't lost my memories of my mom.
[17:43] Bill
    That's why... That's exactly why...
[17:46] Bill
    It's so painful!
[17:52] Bill
    I haven't forgotten, because I can't forget!
[17:56] Bill
    What am I supposed to do?!
[17:59] Bill
    Tell me!
[19:45] Kiri
    Is this what you want, Victor?
[19:47] Kiri
    We could get information
    on Horologues from him.
[19:51] Victo
    No, it doesn't matter.
[19:53] Victo
    He's the lowest form of humanity, anyway.
[20:04] Kiri
    You look pale. Are you all right?
[20:09] Victo
    I'm totally fine!
[20:10] Victo
    I could eat pasta through my nose right now!
[20:19] Blaze
    Wow... So he lost his mom, too.
[20:23] Blaze
    That's gotta hurt so much.
[20:31] Mina
    This is getting on my nerves.
[20:33] Mina
    Stop crying!
[20:35] Mina
    Let's go, Blaze.
[20:37] Blaze
    Sh-Shut up! I'm not crying!
[20:39] Blaze
    I told you, it's just sweat!
[20:41] Mina
    You liar! I know you were crying!
[20:44] Blaze
    I was not!
[20:45] Mina
    You totally, totally were!
[20:47] Victo
    How much easier it would be
[20:50] Victo
    if I could follow my emotions
    and express how I really feel,
[20:54] Victo
    just like they do...
[20:56] Victo
    But I can't do that.
[21:05] Victo
    Well, let's go.
[21:07] Victo
    Couljours shouldn't be too far from here.
[21:14] Kiri
    You only try to act like
    a father at times like this,
[21:18] Kiri
    playing tough and taking
    everything on alone.
[21:22] Kiri
    That's obvious to anyone,
[21:27] Kiri
    Victor.

[00:13] Victor
    Nothing feels better than the
    air in your own hometown!
[00:16] Victor
    Let's go.
[00:24] Kid
    Wait up!
SIGN    March 28 15:02
[00:25] Kid
    You're too slow!
[00:28] Victor
    Back home for the first
    time in three years...
[00:30] Victor
    It hasn't changed a bit!
[00:32] Kiri
    Hang on. If we're being specific,
    that "three years" is more like 27 years.
[00:37] Kiri
    For starters, you left your
    hometown of Couljours at age 12,
[00:39] Kiri
    and trained to become a dealer at
    a casino to keep yourself fed.
[00:42] Kiri
    After learning how to deal cards,
[00:43] Kiri
    you joined the Horologue-killing
    organization Chronos at age 20,
[00:46] Kiri
    where you met Aisrehdar and the agent—
[00:48] Victor
    Okay, okay.
[00:49] Victor
    Girls don't like guys who nitpick, you know.
[00:52] Victor
    It's in a remote location more than
    half a day's travel from the airport.
[00:57] Victor
    There aren't any businesses or
    famous buildings to speak of.
[01:00] Victor
    It's just a small rural town
    with a beautiful view.
[01:04] Victor
    That's Couljours.
[01:05] Blaze
    Sheesh, I'm glad we landed in
    a place that was close to it.
[01:10] Mina
    Darling, I want something cold to drink!
[01:13] Kiri
    Good grief, you two...
[01:15] Victor
    Oh, it's Old Lady Kate's bakery!
[01:17] Victor
    So it's still in business!
[01:21] Victor
    The game machine next to the
    general store! That takes me back!
[01:24] Victor
    I had the high score on this thing!
[01:29] Blaze
    All right!
[01:30] Blaze
    Witness the techniques of the guy
    they called "Sixteen Straight Wins"!
[01:35] Blaze
    Huh?
[01:39] Victor
    That place with the nasty
    steak is hanging in there.
[01:41] Victor
    And here's its whiny spokesdog, Buttller!
[01:44] Victor
    Or are you his grandson?
    Every generation is just like the last.
[01:48] Blaze
    Oh? You wanna fight?
[01:50] Blaze
    They called me "Flashing Mad Dog."
[01:56] Blaze
    Audacious, aren't ya? You wanna go?!
[01:59] Mina
    Darling!
[02:00] Mina
    Since we're here, I'd love
    to meet your parents.
[02:04] Victor
    Sadly, they've both passed away.
[02:07] Mina
    Oh, really? I didn't know.
[02:10] Victor
    Don't worry about it.
[02:12] Victor
    It was 27 years ago.
[02:15] Mina
    I'm sorry.
[02:16] Mina
    Well, then... do you think
    we could visit their graves?
[02:19] Blaze
    Stop! Stop it!
[02:19] Victor
    Sure, later.
[02:22] Kiri
    What is it?
[02:23] Kiri
    Something's bothering me...
[02:26] Victor
    Well, just reminiscing
    won't get us anywhere.
[02:30] Victor
    Let's start by investigating my past.
[02:32] Blaze
    Hey! Isn't this where your last mission was?
[02:36] Blaze
    Whoa!
[02:38] Blaze
    Watch it, you!
[02:39] Kid
    Sorry!
[02:41] Kid
    Auntie!
[02:44] Kid
    I drew this! Look!
[02:47] Eve
    No need to rush. Let me have a look.
[02:51] Eve
    My, it's a lovely drawing!
[02:54] Eve
    I'm sure you'll be a wonderful
    artist when you grow up.
[03:02] Kiri
    Hey, Victor...
[03:04] Kiri
    What are you doing?
[03:09] Victor
    Mom...
[03:12] Kiri
    "Mom"? What are you saying?
[03:17] Alex
    Hold it there.
[03:18] Alex
    Look at that runny nose.
[03:19] Alex
    Got a cold?
[03:20] Alex
    It's definitely a cold.
[03:23] Alex
    Let me take a look at you.
[03:25] Kid
    No! I don't have a cold!
[03:26] Alex
    Don't fuss, now.
[03:29] Kid
    No!
[03:31] Kiri
    You don't mean that's...
[03:45] Mina
    Darling, look!
[03:47] Victor
    Thirty-four years ago?!
[03:56] Kiri
    That's it.
[03:58] Kiri
    It was this town's odd nostalgic
    feel that was bothering me.
[04:02] Kiri
    It's old, but new...
[04:05] Kiri
    New, but old.
[04:06] Kid
    I don't want a shot!
[04:08] Alex
    Come, now, it won't hurt...
[04:09] Eve
    Oh, dear.
[04:11] Kiri
    Are they really Victor's parents?
[04:11] Eve
    It's all right. Don't be scared.
[04:14] Kiri
    No way.
[04:15] Kiri
    But if we assume they are,
    there's only one possibility.
[04:22] Kiri
    Time has turned backwards.
[05:56] Kid
    Save me, Auntie! I don't want a shot!
[05:58] Kiri
    If we've gone back to the past,
[06:01] Kiri
    when did it happen, and how? What caused it?
[06:04] Kiri
    Nothing seemed wrong when
    we walked into this town.
[06:08] Blaze
    You said Victor left the
    countryside at age 12, right?
[06:12] Blaze
    That was 27 years ago, and where
    we are now is 34 years back.
[06:17] Blaze
    Wait, so how old is the Victor
    who's in this town now?
[06:21] Mina
    Darling, are you okay?
[06:28] Victor
    I never thought I'd see you again.
[06:30] Eve
    There, there. Don't cry, now.
[06:35] Eve
    Huh? You...
[06:36] Eve
    You're very pale!
[06:41] Eve
    Are you all right?
[06:42] Alex
    Are you a patient?
[06:44] Alex
    If you'd like an examination, we can talk.
[06:46] Alex
    Eve, get things ready for an exam.
[06:49] Eve
    Yes, dear.
[06:51] Victor
    No, wait! Please, listen to—
[06:54] Kiri
    Victor, open your eyes.
    This town isn't right.
[06:58] Kiri
    Aren't you always saying that
    time never turns backwards?
[07:04] Alex
    What's the matter?
    You seem quite out of sorts.
[07:10] Alex
    Oh, you certainly are pale!
[07:13] Alex
    Yes, I, Alexander Putin,
    should examine you—
[07:15] Kiri
    He's fine! He's just a little
    tired from our long journey.
[07:21] Kiri
    We'll go rest in our hotel.
[07:35] Kiri
    It's no use.
[07:37] Kiri
    He won't answer.
[07:39] Kiri
    I was hoping to ask Snake
    if he had any leads.
[07:42] Mina
    Jeez, why do we have to
    sleep in a place like this?
[07:47] Mina
    At least let me stay at
    a hotel with my darling!
[07:50] Kiri
    Don't complain.
[07:51] Kiri
    Until we know what's going on,
[07:53] Kiri
    we should avoid contact with
    the people of this town.
[07:56] Mina
    Stingy Kiri! Father disrespecter! Virgin!
[08:00] Kiri
    Virginity has nothing to do with this!
[08:02] Blaze
    Twelve plus 27 minus 34 is...
[08:05] Blaze
    First, the 12...
[08:07] Kiri
    Until we can prove that this
    isn't the work of a Horologue,
[08:10] Kiri
    we need to stay alert.
[08:12] Kiri
    We'll start investigating in the morning.
[08:14] Kiri
    We can rotate the watch every
    two hours. Okay, Victor?
[08:18] Kiri
    Victor!
[08:19] Victor
    Oh, right. Sure.
[08:21] Victor
    After two hours, you'll eat
    pasta through your nose, right?
[08:25] Kiri
    Wrong!
[08:26] Kiri
    I'm talking about the watch!
[08:27] Kiri
    Honestly, am I the only
    one being cautious here?
[08:42] Kiri
    Not him.
[08:44] Kiri
    Not him, either.
[08:47] Kiri
    Time is flowing normally
    for all these people.
[08:50] Kiri
    No sign of a Horologue anywhere.
[08:53] Kiri
    Does the town's time being reversed
    have nothing to do with a Horologue at all?
[09:00] Kira
    Mina, has anything like
    this happened before?
[09:03] Mina
    If it had, I'd remember it.
[09:06] Mina
    And Chronos would have it on record.
[09:08] Mina
    This is a first, and it makes no sense.
[09:10] Blaze
    Twelve plus 27 minus 34... uh...
[09:15] Kiri
    If this is Victor's hometown
    34 years in the past,
[09:20] Kiri
    then does this phenomenon have
    something to do with him?
[09:26] Victor
    Kiri, this might just be
    some backwoods town to you,
[09:31] Victor
    but for me, it's full of childhood memories.
[09:34] Victor
    Stop looking at these people
    as if they were samples.
[09:40] Victor
    I'm going out for a bit.
[09:43] Mina
    Darling!
[09:46] Kiri
    Childhood, huh?
[09:55] Kiri
    Very well, then.
[09:57] Kiri
    I'll go along with his
    sentimentality a bit longer.
[10:06] Kiri
    If nothing else,
[10:07] Kiri
    I don't want to be careless and let his
    parents discover my relation to Victor.
[10:11] Mina
    That shouldn't be a problem.
[10:12] Mina
    For father and son, you look nothing alike.
[10:15] Kiri
    I could say the same to you.
[10:17] Kiri
    You look nothing like your sister.
[10:20] Mina
    Of course I don't. We're not real sisters.
[10:25] Mina
    Blood relation to Chronos,
    the god of time, is extremely rare,
[10:29] Mina
    so we only call ourselves "sister"
    for the sake of convenience.
[10:32] Mina
    In the first place, I don't
    remember anything from my past.
[10:36] Mina
    Just like my darling.
[10:38] Kiri
    You lost your memories, too?
    Is that why you...
[10:41] Mina
    Don't get the wrong idea. It's not sympathy.
[10:44] Mina
    I don't care at all that my memory is lost.
[10:47] Mina
    I'm going to build a future with
    my darling, just the two of us.
[10:51] Mina
    That's why this town,
[10:52] Mina
    and every single thing,
[10:54] Mina
    and every single person,
[10:55] Mina
    that ties my darling to his past...
[10:57] Mina
    disgusts me!
[11:05] Eve
    Oh, you're...
[11:08] Eve
    You look pale. Are you all right?
[11:11] Eve
    Come inside.
[11:15] Alex
    What is it, Eve?
[11:16] Eve
    This young man seems unwell.
[11:18] Alex
    What? I'll examine him at once!
[11:20] Alex
    Oh, but I'm seeing another patient now.
[11:24] Alex
    Oh, but there's a patient here, too.
[11:26] Guy
    I'm all right, Doctor Putin.
[11:29] Alex
    Eh?
[11:29] Guy
    I only came to pick up my medicine, anyway.
[11:33] Guy
    How much for the medicine?
[11:34] Alex
    Ah, no, no! I appreciate the thought!
[11:37] Alex
    Just pay it whenever you can.
[11:39] Guy
    Then I'll come again another time.
[11:43] Alex
    Be well...
[11:46] Alex
    Take care.
[11:52] Victor
    My father isn't formally a doctor.
[11:55] Victor
    This town has no hospital,
[11:56] Victor
    which meant people had to travel
    half a day to the next town.
[12:00] Victor
    So he studied medicine on his own time.
[12:02] Victor
    Basically, he's unlicensed.
[12:05] Victor
    His intentions are noble,
[12:07] Victor
    but the fly in the ointment is that he's
    a bit absent-minded and a worrywart.
[12:10] Kiri
    Even though he's a doctor?
[12:12] Victor
    The scenery hasn't changed,
    and neither have they.
[12:16] Victor
    My kind, generous mother and father...
[12:20] Kiri
    Don't get too sentimental.
[12:23] Kiri
    Investigating is our priority now.
[12:26] Kiri
    We'll never get your past
    back if we keep this up.
[12:29] Blaze
    Twenty-seven minus 34...
    That doesn't even work!
[12:31] Victor
    Sentimental, huh?
[12:33] Eve
    Oh, the young man from before.
[12:35] Eve
    How are you feeling?
[12:37] Eve
    Are you all better now?
[12:42] Victor
    What about you? Carrying these heavy
    things when you have a bad heart?
[12:45] Victor
    Is this all right?
[12:47] Eve
    Huh? Yes...
[12:49] Eve
    I need to do at least this much work.
[12:51] Eve
    But what about you?
    Shouldn't you be resting?
[12:55] Victor
    Actually, I am still a bit light-headed...
[12:57] Kiri
    Huh?!
[12:58] Victor
    But the place where we're
    staying is just the worst.
[13:01] Victor
    It's got fleas, ticks, lice,
[13:03] Victor
    and roommates that snore and
    toss and turn in their sleep!
[13:06] Victor
    Even worse, we don't even get decent meals.
[13:10] Eve
    Well, that's awful!
[13:12] Eve
    Why don't you come to our
    house for dinner tonight?
[13:15] Kiri
    We appreciate your kind offer, but...
[13:17] Victor
    We'd be glad to accept!
[13:19] Kiri
    Hey!
[13:20] Kiri
    What if they get suspicious
    while we're eating with them?
[13:23] Kiri
    Did you forget what I said earlier?
[13:25] Victor
    Of course I haven't.
[13:27] Victor
    Listen, is there anyone more worthy
    of investigation than my parents?
[13:31] Victor
    If we're with them,
[13:33] Victor
    we're sure to figure out
    the cause of all this.
[13:37] Kiri
    Yes, but...
[13:58] Alex
    Come to think of it, we haven't
    introduced ourselves.
[14:01] Alex
    My name is Alexander Putin.
[14:04] Alex
    This is my wife, Eve.
[14:07] Mina
    I'm Mina!
[14:09] Mina
    I'm my darling's wife!
[14:11] Eve
    My! As young as you are?
[14:14] Alex
    Love knows no age, remember?
[14:16] Alex
    We were still young when we met, as well.
[14:20] Eve
    That's true.
[14:23] Victor
    Running a health clinic must be difficult.
[14:25] Alex
    Oh, no.
[14:27] Alex
    Actually, I became a doctor in the
    first place because of my wife.
[14:32] Alex
    She has a weak constitution,
    so I wanted to help her.
[14:37] Victor
    I see...
[14:39] Mina
    It's really true that you can do anything
    for the one you love, isn't it?
[14:43] Mina
    I would go through any kind of
    hardship for my darling, too!
[14:47] Alex
    So admirable for one so young!
[14:49] Mina
    Oh, but sir, love knows no age!
[14:55] Alex
    Yes! You're exactly right!
[14:58] Victor
    Whoops! Someone's being left
    out of the conversation.
[15:01] Mina
    Oh, just leave that little prude alone.
[15:04] Kiri
    First of all, I'm supposed
    to be one of the guests!
SIGN    Thok Thok Thok Thok
[15:08] Kiri
    Why am I doing the cooking?!
[15:10] Kiri
    Ever since we got here, it's like
    Couljours is messing with me!
[15:15] Kiri
    There, it's done!
[15:19] Alex
    It's like we're at a three-star restaurant!
[15:21] Eve
    I'm glad we let him do the cooking!
[15:24] Mina
    I might actually see him in
    a more positive light now.
[15:27] All
    Let's eat!
[15:37] Kiri
    Huh?
[15:43] Blaze
    What did I just eat?!
[15:45] Victor
    Kiri, I forgot that your sense
    of taste is practically absent.
[15:49] Mina
    This is the problem with virgins!
[15:51] Alex
    No, I actually quite like it.
[15:53] Alex
    Though as far as the taste goes,
    it's in unfamiliar territory...
[15:56] Eve
    Dear!
[15:57] KidVic
    Hey, you're too loud.
[15:59] KidVic
    I'm trying to study, so keep it down!
[16:03] Alex
    Sorry, Victor. We have
    guests here, you see.
[16:08] Alex
    That's my son, Victor.
[16:10] Alex
    Maybe it's not my place to say so,
    but he's been called a prodigy.
[16:14] Blaze
    I got it!
[16:15] Blaze
    Twelve plus 27 minus 34 equals 5!
[16:18] Blaze
    Five years old!
[16:19] Blaze
    Huh? Is that wrong? Six? Seven? Eight?
[16:23] Alex
    Yes, he's only five,
[16:25] Alex
    but he's already studying
    at a high school level.
[16:29] Eve
    Wait!
[16:31] Eve
    Take this with you, Vic.
[16:34] Eve
    I made it.
[16:37] KidVic
    I don't want it. I'll catch your stupidity.
[16:39] Alex
    Hey, now, Victor!
    You shouldn't talk like that!
[16:42] KidVic
    Well, it's true, isn't it?
[16:45] KidVic
    A weak good-for-nothing who
    can't do anything right,
[16:49] KidVic
    and a scatterbrained quack doctor...
[16:51] KidVic
    Without my help, you'd have more
    patients dying than getting better.
[16:56] KidVic
    I expect nothing of you two.
[16:58] KidVic
    Just...
[16:59] KidVic
    Don't get in my way.
[17:02] Blaze
    You little brat!
[17:05] Blaze
    Huh? Why'd you stop me?!
[17:08] Blaze
    I'm a villain!
[17:09] Blaze
    I'm gonna re-educate that brat but good!
[17:12] Victor
    Calm down, Blaze.
[17:15] Victor
    Just... let it go.
[17:19] Kiri
    How can a child be so abusive
    toward his parents?
[17:22] Mina
    It's normal for kids to
    be stupid and impudent.
[17:35] Kiri
    What forced Victor to grow up
    in the truest sense...
[17:41] Victor
    was the loss of his parents.
SIGN    Time Does Not Turn Backward
[17:53] Kiri
    Losing them made him realize
[17:56] Kiri
    just how precious they were.
[18:03] Eve
    Oh, good morning.
[18:05] Victor
    Thank you for dinner last night.
[18:08] Victor
    Isn't that pen hard to draw with?
[18:11] Eve
    Well, yes.
[18:13] Eve
    But this was a gift from my husband.
[18:18] Eve
    He didn't realize it wasn't an artist's pen.
[18:22] Eve
    But it's not as if I can't draw with it.
[18:24] Eve
    Above all, I have so much
    fun drawing with this pen.
[18:28] Victor
    Yes, I can see that by watching you.
[18:31] Eve
    I hope you all weren't too put off by Vic.
[18:35] Eve
    But—
[18:38] Victor
    Oh, no! You need medicine!
[18:46] Eve
    He's really a very gentle boy.
[18:49] Eve
    Boys his age would normally want to
    play more, or ask for more toys.
[18:54] Eve
    He could be a little more selfish,
[18:56] Eve
    but he helps us with the clinic.
[18:58] Eve
    I'm very proud that Vic has grown
    to be such an independent boy.
[19:05] Eve
    If he seems like a bad boy,
[19:07] Eve
    it's because his father and I
    aren't good enough as parents.
[19:10] Victor
    That's not true at all.
[19:12] Victor
    You're wonderful parents.
[19:15] Victor
    He'll understand that one
    day, too. I'm sure of it.
[19:20] Victor
    Are you going to give that to him?
[19:22] Eve
    Huh? Ah, yes...
[19:26] Eve
    This is the only gift I can give to Vic.
[19:30] Eve
    So I'm hoping to give this
    to him when he turns 20.
[19:38] Eve
    Oh, but please don't.
[19:40] Victor
    Of course. I won't tell him.
[19:43] Eve
    Thank you.
[19:50] Kiri
    You've had enough sentimentality, right?
[19:52] Kiri
    Or are you trying to atone?
[19:55] Kiri
    Your parents died in a fire.
[19:58] Kiri
    The cause remains unknown even now.
[20:00] Kiri
    All we know is that Eve collapsed
    due to her weak heart
[20:04] Kiri
    and couldn't get out in time,
[20:06] Kiri
    so Alex did his best to
    go back and save her.
[20:10] Kiri
    In the end, you never received
    that drawing from your mother.
[20:15] Kiri
    Right?
[20:17] Kiri
    Do you intend to get that drawing
    and thank her personally?
[20:23] Victor
    I already know what she's drawing.
[20:39] Victor
    It was a wish from my awkward parents
[20:43] Victor
    for me to "be a victor."
[20:51] Victor
    Kiri, you don't yet understand
[20:54] Victor
    how parents feel about their children.
[20:57] Victor
    It's not something that
    can be easily explained.
[20:59] Kiri
    Wait, Victor!
[21:01] Kiri
    The parents in front of you now are fakes!
[21:03] Kiri
    The past can't be changed!
[21:05] Kiri
    No matter what you do for them now,
    it'll mean nothing!
[21:08] Kiri
    It sounds good to say you're atoning,
[21:10] Kiri
    but it's only for your own satisfac—
[21:11] Victor
    Shut up, Kiri.
[21:16] Victor
    You don't understand anything, Kiri.
[21:20] Victor
    Investigating is fine.
[21:22] Victor
    But we'll work separately.
    There's something I need to do.
[21:38] Kiri
    Victor!
[21:42] Kiri
    Damn it!

    Instant Destruction by Fire!
[00:08] Mina
    Great Kamaitachi!
[00:34] Mina
    A snake?
[00:36] Kiri
    Be careful. Looks like
    it's a 4,500-year class.
[00:41] Kiri
    It'll be pretty tough.
[00:43] Blaze
    Hah! What's a measly 4,500 years?
[00:46] Blaze
    I've been around for sixteen years!
[00:48] Blaze
    I'm not gonna lose!
[00:57] Blaze
    Realized you were scared of me, did ya?
[01:00] Kiri
    Follow it!
[01:03] Blaze
    Hey!
[01:12] Kiri
    A Horologue's only instinct is to attack
    humans and eat their time. Why would it run?
[01:17] Mina
    You're right. This must mean...
[01:20] Kiri
    There's someone up ahead
    who controls Horologues.
[01:24] (Flashback) Kiri
    As far as I could see, there was
    nothing off about the townsfolk.
[01:28] (Flashback) Kiri
    And it doesn't seem like the Horologue
    was summoned by anyone's regret.
[01:34] (Flashback) Kiri
    Which means the problem isn't
    with someone from the town.
[01:37] (Flashback) Kiri
    It's with Couljours itself.
[01:39] (Flashback) Mina
    Itself?
[01:40] (Flashback) Kiri
    Yes. We'll have to inspect
    the entire town again.
[01:45] (Flashback) Kiri
    Let's head back to the entrance.
[01:52] Kiri
    So a Horologue that acts on
    command appears outside town...
[01:56] Kiri
    A town where time has turned backwards.
[01:58] Kiri
    There must be a connection.

    Leave this to me!
[02:18] Blaze
    Damn! For its size, that bastard can move!
[02:21] Mina
    And fast, at that.
[02:23] Mina
    We can barely keep up.
[02:24] Kiri
    I'm pretty sure it's trying
    to lead us somewhere.
[02:30] Mina
    Is that why it's running at just
    the right speed for us to keep up,
[02:34] Mina
    even though it's fast enough
    to evade our attacks?
[02:38] Blaze
    Damn! Lead on, then!
[02:41] Blaze
    We'll chase you down anywhere!
[02:44] Kiri
    If we can find who's controlling it,
[02:45] Kiri
    we should be able to figure out why
    time in Couljours is going backwards!
[02:50] (Flashback) Victor
    Investigating is fine.
[02:52] (Flashback) Victor
    But we'll work separately.
    There's something I need to do.
[02:57] Kiri
    And we might find a hint on how
    to get Victor's lost time back.
[03:03] Blaze
    I dunno what's going on,
    but this is pretty huge, isn't it?
[03:07] Blaze
    I'm getting fired up!
[03:08] Blaze
    If I can take down this bad boy,

[03:15] Kiri
    Blaze, what's that on your back?
[03:17] Mina
    It keeps flashing in and out
    of sight. It's annoying me.
[03:20] Blaze
    That brat at the clinic told me,

    Please calm down. What happened?
[05:31] Alex
    There's no time for this!
[05:33] Alex
    I was making a house call when
    I got a call from a patient.
[05:37] Alex
    Since no one was at the clinic to help,
[05:40] Alex
    Eve started to spit up blood while
    she was drawing, and now she's...
[05:44] Alex
    She's unconscious! I have to
    treat her at once, or she'll...
[05:48] (Flashback) Kiri
    The past can't be changed!
[05:49] (Flashback) Kiri
    No matter what you do for them now,

    Oh... Doctor, your wife...

    You're late, idiot father!
[06:14] Patient
    Thanks to your son's first aid,
[06:18] Patient
    your wife seems to have stabilized.
[06:22] Alex
    Victor...
[06:25] KidVic
    Honestly...
[06:27] KidVic
    I have an important entrance exam today.
[06:29] KidVic
    Now I'll be late.
[06:32] KidVic
    All you people do is get in my way.
[06:35] Alex
    I-I see... Thanks, Victor.
[06:39] Alex
    H-Have you had breakfast?
[06:40] Alex
    You can't think on an empty stomach, right?
[06:44] KidVic
    I took care of that ages ago.
[06:46] KidVic
    I don't need advice from you.
[06:48] KidVic
    It's just a waste of time.
[06:49] Alex
    R-Right...
[06:52] Alex
    You can always handle things on your own.
[06:58] Victor
    Wait!
[06:59] Victor
    Something's wrong with Eve!
[07:01] Alex
    What?
[07:12] Alex
    She's showing signs of cyanosis.
[07:14] Alex
    Her blood pressure, her pulse...
[07:17] Alex
    No! What do I do?
[07:20] Victor
    Alexander, calm down and
    deal with the situation!
[07:25] Alex
    What she needs right now
    is a blood transfusion.
[07:28] Victor
    Then let's do it right away!
[07:30] Alex
    But there's a problem.
[07:32] Alex
    Her blood type is AB negative.
[07:36] Alex
    Only one in every 2,000 people
    has that blood type.
[07:42] Alex
    If the blood we give her doesn't match,
[07:45] Alex
    it'll only accelerate her death.
[07:55] Kiri
    I didn't oppose you out of hatred.
[07:58] Kiri
    But this is a false past
    that someone has created.
[08:01] Kiri
    They may be trying to hurt you
[08:03] Kiri

    That's no good at all.

    You were always such a high-maintenance boy.
[08:46] Kiri
    Why did you pick today of all
    days to not follow Victor?
[08:53] (Flashback) Kiri
    So there you have it.
[08:54] (Flashback) Kiri
    I'm going to investigate around town,
    even if I have to do it alone.
[08:58] (Flashback) Kiri
    You two can do whatever you want.
[09:00] (Flashback) Blaze
    If there's gonna be a fight, I'm there.
[09:03] (Flashback) Mina
    I'm coming, too.
[09:04] (Flashback) Mina
    I'm trying to lose weight,
    so I'll take the exercise.
[09:09] (Flashback) Kiri
    Have it your way.
[09:15] Mina
    Of course there's no way it'd be fun
    to hang out with a four-eyes like you.
[09:20] Mina
    But what I hate even more is
    the way my darling's acting now.
[09:25] Mina
    You might not have noticed,
[09:27] Mina
    but since we met his mother, his eyes
    always look sad when he smiles.
[09:33] Mina
    I love my darling's bright, cheerful smile.
[09:37] Mina
    When he's happy, I can be happy, too.
[09:41] Mina
    But when he's sad, it hurts me, too.
[09:49] Mina
    That's why I hate this town.
    All it does is make him sad.
[09:54] Mina
    So my only choice is to change this town.
[09:57] Mina
    I'll do anything to bring
    back my darling's smile.
[10:01] Mina
    I can't just sit around doing nothing!
[10:05] Kiri
    So for once, we have the same goal.
[10:08] Mina
    This'll be a joint venture,
    just between mother and son.
[10:12] Mina
    I hope it'll be the first
    and last time, though.
[10:17] Kiri
    Mother and son...
[10:22] Kiri
    I don't have time to think
    about that right now.
[10:26] Kiri
    Defeating the enemy in front
    of us is top priority!
SIGN    Slow Down
[10:44] Mina
    Great Kamaitachi!
[10:44] Kiri
    Rain of a Thousand Camps!
[10:49] Kiri
    It dodged!
[10:51] Mina
    How is it so fast?
[10:58] Mina
    What's wrong?
[11:00] Kiri
    Something is bothering me.
[11:19] Alex
    There's just one way to save Eve.
[11:21] Alex
    She needs a transfusion
    of the same blood type.
[11:25] Guy
    But where will you find such rare blood?
[11:29] Victor
    This is why I hate useless clods like you.
[11:32] Alex
    Victor?
[11:33] KidVic
    Don't "Victor?" me.
[11:35] KidVic
    You were planning to ask for my
    help from the start, weren't you?
[11:40] KidVic
    Well, hurry up and take it.
[11:42] Alex
    But I can't take that much blood from you.
[11:47] Eve
    Don't worry about me, Vic.
[11:50] Alex
    Eve...
[11:51] Eve
    I'll be fine.
[11:54] Eve
    Isn't it just about time for your bus?
[11:57] Eve
    If you miss the 9:30 bus,
    you'll miss your exam.
[12:02] Eve
    I know you'll pass, Vic.
[12:05] Eve
    Go on now. And be safe.
[12:19] Alex
    Eve!
[12:23] KidVic
    Of course I'll pass it! I know that!
[12:25] KidVic
    Don't condescend to me!
[12:27] KidVic
    Get it done in ten minutes! Even a
    quack like you can manage that, right?
[12:33] Victor
    I admire your determination. Well done.
[12:37] Victor
    Okay, let's get started.
    We don't have a moment to lose!
[12:47] Eve
    Thank you, Vic.
[13:05] Alex
    I-I can't. Someone take my place.
[13:08] Alex
    Someone—
[13:09] Victor
    Alexander Putin!
[13:11] Victor
    Pull yourself together!
[13:12] Victor
    You're the only one who can save Eve!
[13:18] Alex
    Y-You're right.
[13:27] Alex
    Eve... Eve...
[13:29] Alex
    Please, I'm begging you...
[13:32] Alex
    Don't leave me.
[13:40] Alex
    Eve...
[13:47] (Flashback) Kiri
    Wait, Victor!
[13:48] (Flashback) Kiri
    The parents in front of you now are fakes!
[13:51] (Flashback) Kiri
    The past can't be changed!
[13:52] (Flashback) Kiri
    No matter what you do for them now,
    it'll mean nothing!
[13:57] Victor
    My father's tears...
[13:59] Victor
    My mother's slender hand.
[14:02] Victor
    Even if it's all fake,
[14:04] Victor
    how can I stand by and do nothing?
[14:17] Alex
    Eve, how do you feel?
[14:22] Alex
    Eve...
[14:22] Victor
    It's not enough.
    Her pulse is still unstable.
[14:25] Alex
    She needs more blood!
[14:27] Victor
    Victor, can you handle it?
[14:30] KidVic
    Of course I can.
[14:32] Guy
    Are you sure? You're still so young.
[14:36] KidVic
    I'm fine! Just shut up!
[14:39] Guy
    See? What did I tell you?
[14:42] Victor
    Damn... What can I do?
[14:52] Victor
    I'm sorry.
[14:54] Victor
    I guess I'm the one who lost my cool.
[14:57] Victor
    There is another AB negative type here.
[15:01] Alex
    It can't be. Such a coincidence...
[15:04] Victor
    That doesn't matter now!
[15:05] Victor
    Please, believe me!
[15:07] Victor
    Hurry and take my blood!
[15:08] Alex
    Right.
[15:25] Victor
    My blood, the blood of
    a man from the future,
[15:28] Victor
    and my mother, a resident of the past.
[15:32] Victor
    Still, it just might be
    possible to change this fate.
[15:38] Alex
    Hurry...
[15:39] Alex
    Hurry and open your eyes!
[15:49] Eve
    Alex...
[15:54] Alex
    Th-Thank goodness! Eve!
[15:57] Victor
    I shouldn't be here right now.
[16:00] Alex
    Thank goodness!
[16:00] Victor
    This moment belongs to
    the two of them alone.
[16:05] Victor
    Here in this fake world, I just
    saved my possibly fake mother.
[16:11] Victor
    I suppose this could be called my atonement.
[16:14] Victor
    But this is for the best.
[16:17] Victor
    Now, at last... at last...
[16:20] Victor
    Something will...
[16:26] Victor
    Victor, your mom will be okay.
[16:29] Victor
    Won't you go see her?
[16:32] Victor
    I think you saved her life.
[16:35] Victor
    You ought to commend yourself.
[16:37] Victor
    And you deserve a hug from your mom, too.
[16:43] KidVic
    I was supposed to be on the bus by now.
[16:46] KidVic
    I was going to take an
    entrance exam at 10:00,
[16:49] KidVic
    and once I passed, I'd go to
    university in a bigger city.
[16:57] Kidvic
    And I would never come
    back to this town again!
[16:59] KidVic
    I was finally going to get away
    from those stupid parents of mine!
[17:04] KidVic
    But because of their idiocy,
[17:06] KidVic
    now I have to spend another year here.
[17:08] KidVic
    All they ever do is hold me back!
[17:11] KidVic
    I've had it! I'd be better off
    if they weren't around—
[17:36] Alex
    Victor! Are you all right?
[17:40] Victor
    A-Alexander, I—
[17:44] Alex
    How could you do that to my son?
[17:47] Alex
    I'm grateful that you gave
    your blood to my wife,
[17:49] Alex
    but I want you to leave now.
[17:53] Alex
    Please.
[17:54] Alex
    Come on, Victor. Let me look at that.
[19:01] Kidvic
    I would never come back to this town again!
[19:03] KidVic
    I was finally going to get away
    from those stupid parents of mine!
[19:07] Victor
    Stupid? What are you talking about?
[19:10] KidVic
    It's their fault—
[19:12] Victor
    Their fault?
[19:13] Victor
    What have they done besides loving you?
[19:16] KidVic
    All they ever do is hold me back!
[19:18] Victor
    You don't even realize how blessed
    you are right now. You're the fool!
[19:24] Victor
    Do you know that when
    you're twelve years old,
[19:26] Victor
    both of them are going to die?
[19:29] Victor
    Do you understand the meaning
    of the word "irreplaceable"?
[19:33] KidVic
    I'd be better off if they weren't around!
[19:36] Victor
    Why don't you understand?!
[19:43] Mina
    Darling!
[19:45] Mina
    Don't make that face.
    Let's go on our honeymoon.
[19:48] Mina
    I'll make you feel better, you poor thing.
[19:51] Kiri
    Victor, don't be tied down
    by memories of the past.
[19:54] Kiri
    All of this is fake.
[19:56] Kiri
    What you need to do now is end whatever
    has caused time to turn backwards.
[20:00] Victor
    I know that, but...
[20:03] KidVic
    The two of them are exactly right.
[20:06] KidVic
    The Victor my parents wish for is a
    strong, independent winner—a victor.
[20:12] KidVic
    Not a weakling like you, who can't
[20:16] [SONG] Text
    Don't Be Misled
[20:17] KidVic
    put his parents behind him.
[20:19] Victor
    Mom? I—
[20:42] Victor
    I wanted to atone,
[20:44] Victor
    but I only ended up adding
    more to my pile of sins.
[20:48] Victor
    I'm so tired.
[20:50] Victor
    I don't even care about anything anymore.
[21:03] Blaze
    What the heck is this?
[21:15] Kiri
    This wall is what's keeping this
    town trapped 34 years in the past.
[21:19] Mina
    But who did this? And why?
[21:22] Blaze
    Hey, hang on! There's a movie
    I want to see next week!
[21:25] Kiri
    Blaze...
[21:27] Kiri
    Whether or not that'll be
    possible depends on this wall,
[21:30] Kiri
    and on whoever put it here.

SIGN    March 29 15:07
[02:27] Mina
    The one who made it?
[02:28] Blaze
    What do you mean?
[02:29] Kiri
    Doesn't it seem odd to you?
[02:31] Mina
    What?
[02:33] Kiri
    This strange time wall...
[02:38] Kiri
    Life in this town seems
    so peaceful at a glance.
[02:42] Kiri
    But there are numerous Horologues
    in the forest surrounding it.
[02:46] Mina
    Now that you mention it...
[02:48] Kiri
    Thinking back, it's almost as if the
    Horologues are protecting the town.
[02:52] Kiri
    Life for its residents
    is just that peaceful.
[02:55] Mina
    You're right. I guess you
    might call that mysterious.
[02:58] Blaze
    Nothing mysterious about it.
[03:00] Blaze
    It just means those Horologue
    wimps are scared of me.
[03:04] Mina
    Are you that stupid?
[03:05] Mina
    Why do you think it attacked us
    the moment we entered the forest?
[03:08] Blaze
    Huh? That was, you know...
[03:11] Blaze
    Its way of saying hello?
[03:13] Kiri
    That's what I mean. It's as if the
    Horologues are letting us do as we please,
[03:17] Kiri
    and observing us every step of the way.
[03:21] Kiri
    And the other thing that's bothering me
[03:23] Kiri
    is that this town keeps repeating
    the same day for some reason.
[03:28] (Flashback) Eve
    Huh? You...
[03:32] (Flashback) Eve
    Oh, you're...
[03:35] Mina
    So that's why even when we
    saw her the second time,
[03:38] Mina
    she acted like we'd never met before.
[03:40] Kiri
    Yeah.
[03:41] Kiri
    If time really is going backwards,
[03:44] Kiri
    she wouldn't remember us because
    she hadn't met us yet.
[03:49] Kiri
    If we assume the town's time was
    eaten the moment we entered it,
[03:53] Kiri
    the pieces fit together.
[04:02] Kiri
    What do you think of my deduction?
[04:06] Kyosuke
    You're exactly right.
[04:09] Kyosuke
    That's some sharp intuition you have,
[04:11] Kyosuke
    little brat.
[04:22] Kyosuke
    We've got nothing against you,
    and we don't want to hurt you,
[04:27] Kyosuke
    but now that you've figured out the truth...
[04:30] Kyosuke
    We can't let you live.
[04:35] Kiri
    One of the rings that controls a Horologue?
[04:37] Mina
    So you guys are behind all this?
[04:39] Kyosuke
    Sadly, you're wrong there.
[04:42] Kyosuke
    His Majesty is a busy man.
[04:45] Kyosuke
    He won't be going to the
    trouble of coming to see you.
[04:48] Mina
    Oh, so you guys just strolled out here
    because your leader told you to?
[04:53] Kyosuke
    You see, I'm not a very gutsy guy.
[04:57] Kyosuke
    His Majesty is a much more frightening
    being than you guys think!
[05:08] Kyosuke
    Oh, dear. I forgot to introduce myself.
[05:11] Kyosuke
    I'm Fujibayashi Kyosuke.
[05:14] Kyosuke
    I thought I'd lured you all here,
    but it looks like one got away.
[05:18] Kyosuke
    Still, that'll make this even easier for me.
[05:21] Kiri
    That's my line!
[05:29] Raiko
    My name is Raiko.
[05:31] Raiko
    I bear no grudge against the lot of you,
[05:33] Raiko
    but if you stand in the way
    of His Majesty's experiment,
[05:36] Raiko
    I will not hold back.
[05:39] Blaze
    Keep your hands off my little brother!
[05:46] Raiko
    Who are you?
[05:49] Blaze
    Hey, Gramps, are you the type that likes
    to let your fists do the talking?
[05:53] Blaze
    So am I! And I'm the worst villain around!
[05:56] Blaze
    I'll take you—whoa!
[06:00] Blaze
    Hey! Don't dodge me!
[06:02] Kiri
    He's tougher than I thought.
[06:04] Kyosuke
    You three aren't half bad.
[06:07] Blaze
    Enough talk! Hurry up and face me, old man!
[06:10] Blaze
    Let's duke it out over there! Come on!
[06:20] Kyosuke
    By the way, young lady...
[06:22] Kyosuke
    I thought you looked familiar.
[06:25] Kyosuke
    It's been twelve years, uh...
    what was your name again?
[06:29] Kyosuke
    Let's see now...
[06:31] Kyosuke
    Oh! Nana! Little Nana!
[06:39] Kiri
    Nana? That was Mom's name!
[06:41] Kiri
    So is Mina really my mother?
[06:45] Kiri
    But why a fake name?
[06:48] Kyosuke
    You were all over Victor back then.
[06:52] Kyosuke
    You still look exactly the same, though.
[06:55] Kyosuke
    Why don't you tell me the secret
    behind your youthful looks?
[07:04] Mina
    He's...
[07:09] Kyosuke
    Here I come!
[07:13] Kyosuke
    Come on, is that all you've got?
[07:15] Kyosuke
    And little lady, where's that
    fury you had a moment ago?
[07:18] Kyosuke
    Did I say something wrong?
[07:28] Mina
    Your attacks are repulsive, old man.
[07:31] Kyosuke
    Isn't my Horologue fast?
[07:34] Kyosuke
    And it's got more than speed.
    It can extend and contract at will.
[07:38] Kyosuke
    It's the perfect partner
    for a lazy guy like me.
[07:41] Mina
    You talk too much!
[07:45] Kiri
    Calm down. Focus on the
    enemy in front of me first!
[07:48] Kyosuke
    I haven't seen you in so long.
    Of course I'm sentimental.
[07:53] Kyosuke
    Is the boy with the glasses your son?
[07:55] Kyosuke
    What happened to that
    precocious little boy?
[07:58] Kyosuke
    He used to cling to you all the time!
[08:04] Kiri
    Mina!
[08:40] Victor
    Oh, it's you.
[08:42] Victor
    Is something wrong?
[09:01] Victor
    Oh, it's you.
[09:04] Victor
    Is something wrong?
[09:09] Victor
    Thanks for earlier.
[09:13] Aiks
    Why?
[09:15] Aiks
    Why do you suffer?
[09:19] Aiks
    You saved Eve's life.
[09:22] Aiks
    Why aren't you happy?
[09:26] Aiks
    Why did you hit Vic?
[09:29] Aiks
    Why?
[09:31] Aiks
    I truly can't understand.
[09:36] Victor
    Don't be so nosy.
[09:38] Victor
    Every family has its problems.
[09:43] Aiks
    Problems? What problems?
[09:46] Aiks
    What kinds of problems?
[09:48] Aiks
    What's the answer to the problem?
[09:50] Aiks
    Won't you tell me?
[09:53] Victor
    What are you talking about?
[09:55] Victor
    Who is this guy?
    Something's odd about him.
[10:05] Bill
    I finally found you.
[10:10] Bill
    I heard His Majesty had ordered you
[10:13] Bill
    to come here on a mission,
    so I went looking for you.
[10:17] Victor
    Bill... Reidan?
[10:21] Bill
    Give me another ring.
[10:24] Bill
    I won't disappoint His Majesty this time.
[10:28] Victor
    His Majesty?
[10:29] Bill
    This time, I will turn
    reality into a video game.
[10:33] Bill
    For my mother.
[10:35] Aiks
    A game? Your mother?
[10:38] Aiks
    What do those have to do with one another?
[10:41] Aiks
    I don't understand.
[10:45] Aiks
    Allow me to observe your memories.
[10:49] Aiks
    I want to understand.
[10:52] Bill
    Huh? Observe?
[10:55] Bill
    Fine. You just want me to tell
    you what happened, right?
[10:59] Bill
    I want to make these guys—
[11:01] Aiks
    No, there's no need for
    anything so troublesome.
[11:05] Aiks
    I need only eat you, and I'll know.
[11:50] Aiks
    I see.
[11:52] Aiks
    He drowned himself in video games to
    avert his eyes from his mother's death.
[11:57] Aiks
    Now that I know the course of events,
[12:00] Aiks
    I still can't understand.
[12:03] Victor
    What are you?!
[12:05] Aiks
    It seems I may never understand
    these creatures known as "humans."
[12:12] Victor
    It can't be...
[12:21] Aiks
    This is the third time we have met.
[12:27] Aiks
    You don't remember?
[12:29] Aiks
    Or don't you recognize me?
[12:33] Aiks
    Then what if I do this?
[12:41] Victor
    You're...
[12:43] Victor
    Impossible! Horologues act only on
    their instinct to devour human time!
[12:49] Aiks
    As Horologues devour vast
    amounts of human time,
[12:53] Aiks
    they are gradually influenced
    by the humans' memories.
[12:56] Aiks
    Eventually, they come to possess an ego.
[12:59] Aiks
    And my ego disguised itself as a human
    in order to learn more about them.
[13:04] Aiks
    It is now among the humans, observing them.
[13:09] Victor
    How is it possible? The target
    of my revenge came to me itself,
[13:13] Victor
    but I haven't gotten my strength back yet!
[13:16] Victor
    And my cards are...
[13:19] Aiks
    There are many things I wish to ask you.
[13:23] Aiks
    I have performed experiments over and over,
[13:26] Aiks
    but I simply cannot
    understand human emotions.
[13:30] Victor
    Experiments?
[13:31] Aiks
    For instance...
[13:34] Aiks
    Experiment 1.
[13:35] Aiks
    The kind-hearted Alex always
    uses his money to help others.
[13:40] Aiks
    So I gave him more money than
    he knew what to do with.
[13:44] Aiks
    But he didn't even make a
    move to take any of it.
[13:47] Aiks
    He only kept giving his own wealth.
[13:50] Aiks
    I truly can't understand it.
[13:54] Aiks
    Experiment 2.
[13:55] Aiks
    In another experiment, I pushed Vic
    and Eve into a lake at the same time.
[14:01] Aiks
    Alexander tried to save them both,
[14:04] Aiks
    but all three ended up drowning.
[14:09] Aiks
    I truly can't understand it.
[14:18] Kiri
    What?
[14:19] Mina
    You idiot! Watch your back!
[14:22] Mina
    He won't think twice about
    using cowardly tricks.
[14:26] Kira
    Mina, why...
[14:28] Kyosuke
    A mother's love is a remarkable thing.
[14:32] Kiri
    A mother's...
[14:33] Mina
    Don't take it the wrong way.
[14:35] Mina
    I did it because my darling
    would be sad if you died.
[14:39] Mina
    Remember what I told you?
    I don't want to see him sad.
[14:43] Kyosuke
    My goodness. The plan was to
    get rid of you two quickly
[14:47] Kyosuke
    and then move on to Victor, but...
[14:50] Kiri
    What are you saying?!
[14:52] Mina
    Kiri, go.
[14:55] Mina
    You're the only one who can save my darling.
[14:58] Mina
    Go! Hurry!
[15:11] Raiko
    It is clearly true that heroics
    spring from the young.
[15:15] Raiko
    How impressive that you prove
    an equal match for me.
[15:18] Blaze
    Don't make me laugh.
[15:20] Blaze
    You think that little mosquito-bite
    punch will work on me?
[15:24] Blaze
    Don't make me laugh!
[15:30] Raiko
    In order to repay His Majesty's kindness,
[15:33] Raiko
    I must defeat all of you.
[15:36] Blaze
    Now I'm gonna show you just how bad I am!
[15:49] Aiks
    There is no need to worry.
[15:51] Aiks
    Once my experiment is over,
    I will return the flow of time.
[15:55] Aiks
    They will come back to life
    as if nothing happened.
[15:58] Aiks
    The power to consume time affords
    great freedom in its use.
[16:02] Aiks
    I can repeat my experiments infinitely.
[16:05] Aiks
    Now, let me tell you about some
    more experiments of mine...
[16:10] Aiks
    Experiment 3.
[16:12] Aiks
    I killed Eve in front of Vic.
[16:16] Aiks
    Little Vic is normally so calm
    and outwardly emotionless,
[16:19] Aiks
    but he showed an anguished expression then.
[16:24] Aiks
    Do you not find it strange?
[16:26] Aiks
    I killed the mother he
    saw as such a nuisance,
[16:30] Aiks
    so why was he not happy?
[16:32] Aiks
    Experiment 4.
[16:34] Aiks
    Driven by curiosity,
[16:36] Aiks
    I killed both Eve and Alexander.
[16:39] Aiks
    I thought, perhaps, killing only
    Eve was not enough to please him.
[16:44] Aiks
    But on the contrary,
    Vic was even more distraught.
[16:50] Aiks
    Is that not strange?
[16:52] Victor
    Shut up.
[16:54] Aiks
    Then there was... Ah, yes.
[16:56] Aiks
    Eve's brush with death today
    was also an experiment.
[16:59] Victor
    Stop it!
[17:00] Aiks
    I don't understand why you look so mournful,
[17:04] Aiks
    even though you saved your mother.
[17:06] Aiks
    And why did you hit Vic?
[17:09] Victor
    That's enough!
[17:10] Aiks
    Then tell me.
[17:12] Aiks
    What makes you suffer so?
[17:15] Victor
    Shut up!
[17:16] Victor
    Not only did you take my memories,
    but you toyed with my family's lives!
[17:20] Victor
    I won't forgive that!
[17:20] [SONG] Text
    Speed Up
[17:28] Aiks
    Do not attack me with your emotions.
[17:31] Aiks
    I did not come here to fight you.
[17:35] Victor
    He stopped my fastest attack,
[17:37] Victor
    Sped Up three thousand times,
    with one hand?!
[17:41] Aiks
    If my use of the people you care about
    in my experiments displeases you,
[17:47] Aiks
    then why don't you serve as the
    subject of my experiments?
[18:05] Aiks
    Can you see it?
[18:07] Aiks
    This is the organ I use to eat.
[18:10] Aiks
    As you and your friends guessed,
[18:11] Aiks
    I have been eating this town's time.
[18:16] Aiks
    If I may complain a bit,
[18:17] Aiks
    the amount of time here is so
    vast that it's all I can do
[18:23] Aiks
    not to spit it up.
[18:26] Aiks
    Eating such a large amount
    drains my strength, as well.
[18:30] Aiks
    At present, I can only use about thirty
    to forty percent of my strength.
[18:35] Aiks
    If you used your power to the fullest,
[18:37] Aiks
    perhaps you could damage my eating organ
[18:40] Aiks
    and force me to spit up the time I've eaten.
[18:46] Aiks
    That's the way.
[18:47] Aiks
    That expression tells me you
    understand my intentions.
[18:52] Aiks
    If I spit up all that time,
[18:55] Aiks
    this town will return to the present.
[18:58] Aiks
    But at the same time,
[19:00] Aiks
    you will never see your dead parents again.
[19:09] Aiks
    This is a very simple experiment.
[19:11] Aiks
    All you must do is choose
    one of two options.
[19:14] Aiks
    The first option
[19:16] Aiks
    is to keep things as they are and
    continue to enjoy your happy family.
[19:20] Aiks
    The second option
[19:22] Aiks
    is to uphold your conviction
    as a Chronos Ruler,
[19:25] Aiks
    defeat me, and return everything to normal.
[19:29] Aiks
    How truly fascinating.
[19:31] Aiks
    Victor Putin, the very man who has always
    said time doesn't flow backwards
[19:35] Aiks
    and that one mustn't be
    overtaken by regret...
[19:37] Aiks
    What choice will he make?
[19:40] Aiks
    I will be patiently observing this.
[19:49] (Flashback) Victor

[20:25] Victor
    I won't let you toy with my parents again!
[20:26] [SONG] Text
    Speed Up
[20:30] Victor
    And I will be taking back my memories!
[20:33] Aiks
    I understand a Chronos Ruler's ability
[20:35] Aiks
    is proportionate to the
    strength of his will.
[20:39] Aiks
    It appears you still harbor
    some doubt in your heart.
[20:52] Kyosuke
    Now, this is a fine sight!

    You do give up quickly.

    If you keep spouting nonsense,
[00:24] Mina
    I'll shut your mouth forever.
[00:37] Kyosuke
    Dear me, how scary.
[00:40] Kyosuke
    Are you actually trying to kill me?
[00:49] Kyosuke
    Well, that's fine. The same goes for me!
[00:57] Kyosuke
    You know, my left eye...
[00:59] Kyosuke
    It was Victor who sliced it up.
[01:02] Kyosuke
    I'm quite a wimp, after all.
[01:05] Kyosuke
    Ever since then, I've thought of
    nothing but how I could get revenge.
[01:10] Kyosuke
    Then, one day...
[01:11] Kyosuke
    I had a great idea!
[02:46] Kyosuke
    I had a great idea!
[02:51] Kyosuke
    All I had to do was kill his wife!
[02:56] Mina
    Child's play!
[02:58] Mina
    You're fast, but that's all.
[03:00] Mina
    You have no technique!
[03:03] Kyosuke
    What?
[03:04] Mina
    Speed Up!
[03:17] Mina
    Our little game is over.
[03:20] Mina
    Just let that Horologue you can
    no longer control eat you.
[03:23] Kyosuke
    Oh, I'm done for...
[03:27] Kyosuke
    Just kidding!
[03:31] Mina
    Why?!
[03:32] Kyosuke
    Why? Come on, now.
[03:35] Kyosuke
    I had no idea you were such a naïve girl.
[03:40] Kyosuke
    Did you honestly think I'd wear the real
    ring where it could be seen so easily?
[03:45] Kyosuke
    I've kept it hidden, of course!
[03:51] Mina
    Well, that's fine, then.
[03:53] Mina
    I just need to defeat the Horologue itself.
[03:56] Mina
    I'll cook you up after that!
[04:10] Mina
    I can't... move...
[04:13] Kyosuke
    Ah, I see it's finally kicked in.
[04:21] Kyosuke
    I have no technique, do I?
[04:23] Kyosuke
    You only say that because you don't
    understand how a Horologue ought to be used.
[04:28] Mina
    How it ought... to be used?
[04:31] Kyosuke
    A Horologue's staple diet is time.
[04:33] Kyosuke
    Time includes memories,
    experiences, and abilities.
[04:38] Kyosuke
    When a Horologue eats time,
    it also gains those things.
[04:44] Kyosuke
    And this one's name is Fudoku.
[04:47] Kyosuke
    Wolf's bane, scorpions, frogs,
    tarantulas, cobras...
[04:53] Kyosuke
    It's eaten all manner of toxic organisms.
[04:57] Kyosuke
    You get the rest, right?
[05:00] Kyosuke
    When you shielded your beloved son,
[05:02] Kyosuke
    neurotoxins invaded your body.
[05:06] Kyosuke
    Oh, but don't worry.
[05:09] Kyosuke
    The effects of that poison only
    lasts one to two hours at most.
[05:12] Kyosuke
    Oh, but there are some things I'd like to
    test out on you in the meantime.
[05:20] Kyosuke
    Where should we start?
[05:24] Blaze
    I am the Sixth Chronos Ruler, Blaze!
[05:28] Blaze
    An old geezer like you is no match for me,
[05:31] Blaze
    but I know fate when I see it.
[05:33] Blaze
    Speed Up!
[05:47] Blaze
    You're kidding me.
[05:49] Blaze
    A little old man like you blocked my attack?
[05:53] Blaze
    How?
[05:55] Blaze
    A Horologue? An Oath of Time?
[05:58] Blaze
    There's no way you did that on your own!
[06:00] Raiko
    My existence, down to the last drop
    of my blood, belongs to His Majesty.
[06:05] Blaze
    Huh?
[06:06] Blaze
    Everyone keeps talking about "His Majesty."
    Who the hell is that?
[06:10] Raiko
    His Majesty gave me a new body,
[06:14] Raiko
    and from him I received a new life.
[06:17] Blaze
    Life?
[06:19] Raiko
    Therefore, His Majesty's orders...
[06:23] Raiko
    are absolute, even if they cost me my life!
[06:29] Blaze
    Wh-What the hell?!
[06:32] Blaze
    You fused with a Horologue?
[06:35] Blaze
    What kind of psycho are you?!
[06:38] Raiko
    When I was very young,
[06:40] Raiko
    disease caused my muscles to atrophy,
    and my parents abandoned me.
[07:01] Raiko
    It was His Majesty who took me in.
[07:07] Raiko
    By transplanting a Horologue into my flesh,
[07:09] Raiko
    I gained a new body.
[07:12] Raiko
    His Majesty is both a father and
    a god to me, and that is why...
[07:17] Raiko
    I will not allow anyone to
    stand in His Majesty's way!
[07:28] Blaze
    That's such a great story.
    You've really had it rough, old man.
[07:33] Blaze
    And this "His Majesty" must
    be a great guy, too.
[07:37] Raiko
    You understand the compassion
    of His Majesty?
[07:40] Blaze
    Of course I do!
[07:41] Blaze
    But old man, there's someone
    who's important to me, too!
[07:45] Blaze
    And to protect my kid brother, Kiri...
[07:47] Blaze
    In the name of evil, I will defeat you!
[07:51] Raiko
    The strength of your will is admirable!
[07:53] Raiko
    I will face you, young one!
[07:59] Raiko
    His Majesty has granted me the
    agility of a monkey-type Horologue,
[08:03] Raiko
    as well as great strength.
[08:07] Blaze
    A monkey, huh?
[08:09] Blaze
    If you're a monkey, then I'm
    the incarnation of a dragon.
[08:13] Blaze
    You know what that means?
[08:14] Blaze
    I'm a hell of a lot stronger than you!

[08:39] Blaze
    Now I don't mind showing you how
    much power my fist really packs!
[09:02] Raiko
    The wisdom of my martial arts and
    the peerless might of the Horologue
[09:06] Raiko
    come together in me to complete
    the ultimate fighting force!
[09:20] Kyosuke
    Now...
[09:21] Kyosuke
    This one has poison that kills by bleeding
    all the blood out of your body,
[09:26] Kyosuke
    and this one has poison that kills by shock
    resulting from the illusion of pain.
[09:32] Kyosuke
    And this one...
[09:34] Kyosuke
    has a slightly more gentle poison
    that puts you in dreamland forever.
[09:39] Kyosuke
    Which of the three poisons would you like,
[09:43] Kyosuke
    mademoiselle?
[09:45] Mina
    I think you mean four poisons.
[09:47] Mina
    You left out the one where I
    bite you and you die from poison.
[09:53] Kyosuke
    Playing tough, eh, little Nana?
[09:55] Kyosuke
    Then, out of respect to your courage...
[09:58] Kyosuke
    I'll try them all on you!
[10:06] Mina
    My poison is finally taking effect.
[10:12] Kyosuke
    What... just happened?
[10:15] Kyosuke
    Why did they disappear?
[10:18] Mina
    I just told you.
[10:19] Mina
    It was poison.
[10:21] Kyosuke
    Did you say... poison?
[10:25] Kyosuke
    How... did you...
[10:28] Mina
    The blood of Chronos has the
    power to purify Horologues.
[10:33] Kyosuke
    What...
[10:34] Mina
    You didn't know, did you?
[10:36] Mina
    From the moment your Horologue wounded me,
[10:39] Mina
    my blood was already starting to work.
[10:42] Mina
    My blood purifies Horologues
[10:44] Mina
    and, naturally, detoxifies
    any poisons they possess.
[10:49] Mina
    Fight poison with poison...
[10:51] Mina
    An appropriate idiom for you.
[10:54] Kyosuke
    Purifying power? That can't be...
[10:57] Kyosuke
    Just what are you—
[11:02] Mina
    What? Sorry, I can't hear you.
[11:06] Mina
    I've created a vacuum around you!
[11:09] Mina
    If you'd kept your mouth shut,
    you could've lived a little longer.
[11:13] Mina
    But now that you know too much,
    I need you to go away...
[11:19] Mina
    Forever.
[11:32] Raiko
    What's the matter, boy? Out of moves?
[11:35] Blaze
    Damn, damn! I can't just go down like this!
[11:39] Blaze
    Come up with something, me!
    You've gotta do this, me!
[11:43] Raiko
    Young one, do you still intend to fight?
[11:48] Blaze
    This isn't enough!
[11:50] Blaze
    I'm the world's top villain, you know!
[11:54] Raiko
    You certainly do have guts!
[11:57] Raiko
    But when I can see your attacks coming,
    no degree of speed can—
[12:03] Raiko
    Is this... gunpowder?
[12:06] Raiko
    It's maintaining a gradual burn!
[12:08] Blaze
    Finally figured it out, huh?
[12:11] Blaze
    Too late!
[12:14] Blaze
    Lightning Fire Bomb!
[12:16] Raiko
    He Slowed Down countless burning sparks
[12:19] Raiko
    and dispersed them all around me?!
[12:22] Raiko
    I can't dodge this many of them!
[12:25] Raiko
    And although each individual one is small,
[12:27] Raiko
    the effect of this many
    of them together is...
[12:33] Raiko
    ...immense!
[12:57] Blaze
    Old man... I've won.
[13:01] Raiko
    I am shamed...
[13:04] Raiko
    Your Majesty, I am truly sorry...
[13:09] Raiko
    My debt to you... to my father...
    I could not...
[13:15] Blaze

[13:17] Blaze
    A debt to your family...
[13:21] Blaze
    But, sorry to say,
[13:25] Blaze
    I'm fighting for something like that, too.
[13:34] Aiks

[13:37] Aiks
    Why, then, do you wish to protect Victor?

    Am I correct in thinking you've resolved
    to stop resisting and let me eat you?
[15:50] Kiri
    If you want to know, find out for yourself.
[15:53] Aiks
    Interesting. I will gladly do just that!

    of water in the earth
[16:17] Kiri
    and turned it into many blades.
[16:20] Kiri
    I didn't expect it to take down a Horologue.
[16:23] Kiri
    But even if you are capable
    of healing yourself,
[16:26] Kiri
    it has to consume energy.
[16:28] Kiri
    I just need to finish you
    before you can heal yourself.
[16:31] Kiri
    It's over.
[16:35] Kiri
    What you're feeling now is an
    emotion humans call "fear."
[16:53] Victor
    Was that healing?
[16:55] Kiri
    No. He ate his own time,
[16:57] Kiri
    reverting to the state he was
    in before I damaged him!
[17:01] Victor
    We've never met a Horologue with
    that kind of power before!
[17:05] Aiks
    Only very few Horologues can heal themselves
    by eating part of their own bodies.

    I feel a bit ill, but this

    Haven't you had enough?
    Just let it eat you now.

[17:46] Aiks
    Even injury does not deter you
    from fighting your enemy.
[17:50] Aiks
    Truly, I am surprised.
[17:53] Aiks
    But...
[17:54] Aiks
    I believe you have no moves left to try.
[18:03] Aiks
    Ah, yes...
[18:05] Aiks
    That expression!
[18:07] Aiks
    I have done so much experimentation
    and observation
[18:10] Aiks
    in order to understand human emotions.
[18:14] Aiks
    Humans smile when they are suffering,
[18:17] Aiks
    grieve when someone they hate leaves them,
[18:21] Aiks
    and sometimes, they even say
    things they don't mean.
[18:25] Aiks
    And you...
[18:27] Aiks
    continue to attack me when
    you have no chance of winning.
[18:30] Aiks
    You even injured yourself,
[18:32] Aiks
    when if you had stopped resisting,
    you would never have felt that pain.
[18:37] Aiks
    The more I observe them, the less
    I understand human emotions.
[18:41] Aiks
    I can't make logical sense of it at all.
[18:45] Aiks
    But there's one thing I am certain of.
[18:48] Aiks
    In the many thousands of
    experiments I've conducted,
[18:51] Aiks
    whenever humans have sensed
    approaching death,
[18:55] Aiks
    they always made that expression.
[19:00] Aiks
    That... is "fear"!
[19:04] Aiks
    Scared, aren't you?
[19:05] Aiks
    As well you should be.
[19:08] Aiks
    The one human emotion I
    do understand is fear...
[19:14] Aiks
    And that, for me, is the
    most precious asset of all!

    Kiri!

    Aiks brought our family back together.
    We owe him everything.

    Is that what you want?

[02:53] Aiks
    Were you holding back?

    Why did you avoid my vital points?
[03:02] Aiks
    Attacking me is pointless if you
    don't target my eating organs.
[03:06] Aiks
    Because, as you can see,
    I'll just heal myself.
[03:10] Aiks
    Still, until only moments ago,
[03:14] Aiks
    you couldn't even think about hurting me.
[03:17] Aiks
    Why now?
[03:21] Aiks
    Would you do it again?
[03:24] Aiks
    I'd like to observe it carefully.

    Don't worry about Vic.
[07:32] Eve
    Both Alex and I are grateful to you.
[07:36] Eve
    You gave your own blood to save me.
[07:40] Victor
    I'm glad to hear that.
[07:42] Eve
    Oh, I'm sorry! That's not a very
    fun subject to talk about, is it?
[07:46] Eve
    A fun subject... Fun...
[07:50] Eve
    Oh! Remember when I told you that
[07:52] Eve
    I plan to give Vic that picture
    when he becomes an adult?
[07:56] Eve
    That day is still a long way off,
[08:00] Eve
    but just thinking about the look on
    his face when I give it to him...
[08:04] Eve
    I'm already so excited to see it.
[08:07] Eve
    The present has a connection to Vic's name.
[08:10] Eve
    Vic's name is—
[08:12] Victor
    Victor.
[08:14] Victor
    It means "victor."
[08:16] Victor
    One who fights alone,
    relying on no one else,
[08:20] Victor
    and grasps victory on his own.
[08:22] Victor
    "Be a victor."
[08:24] Victor
    That's the meaning of the
    picture you're making for him.
[08:28] Victor
    It's what you want him to become.
[08:31] Victor
    Don't worry, Eve.
[08:34] Victor
    Vic won't let you down.
[08:37] Victor
    He'll become just the kind
    of adult you hope for.
[08:45] Eve
    This pen I'm using...
[08:49] Eve
    Alex got it from his father
    when he was little.
[08:53] Eve
    In those days, when things
    were hard to come by,
[08:56] Eve
    a single pen was a prized possession.
[08:59] Eve
    Alex used this pen for all
    his classwork and homework,
[09:02] Eve
    and even all the work he's done as an adult.
[09:05] Eve
    Ever since he gave it to me,
[09:08] Eve
    I've used it to draw pictures.
[09:12] Eve
    Vic's name means "victor."
[09:15] Eve
    Victory and success aren't
    things one can achieve alone.
[09:19] Eve
    I believe you only achieve them
    with the help of your family,
[09:23] Eve
    friends, and companions.
[09:26] Eve
    So many of his family's wishes
    are packed into this pen.
[09:34] Eve
    I plan to give it to Vic.
[09:39] Eve
    Vic is a strong, clever boy,
[09:42] Eve
    so he believes he can do
    everything on his own.
[09:45] Eve
    But one day, when Vic becomes
    independent and leaves this home,
[09:49] Eve
    I want him to have this pen.
[09:51] Eve
    Then he can know that he isn't alone.
[09:56] Eve
    When he's sad, he can rely on his family.
[09:58] Eve
    When he's suffering,
    he can rely on his friends.
[10:01] Eve
    Relying on others, being relied upon,
    and sharing laughter and tears...
[10:06] Eve
    That is what I consider a "victor."
[10:15] Victor
    I...
[10:17] Victor
    I was wrong all this time.
[10:20] Victor
    I didn't realize what my
    mom really wanted for me.
[10:24] Victor
    I wouldn't trust the family and
    companions who supported me,
[10:27] Victor
    or rely on them.
[10:30] Victor
    I only believed in my own abilities.
[10:38] Eve
    So...
[10:43] Eve
    Take good care of this pen,
[10:46] Eve
    Vic.
[10:49] Eve
    It's a gift from your father and me
     to celebrate your adulthood.
[10:54] Victor
    How long...
[10:56] Victor
    How long have you known?
[10:59] Victor
    When I gave you my blood? Or...
[11:02] Eve
    I think it was before that.
[11:05] Eve
    The moment I first saw you,
    I had a strange feeling.
[11:10] Eve
    You've grown up so much, Vic.

[12:03] Victor
    I wanted to see you and apologize.

[12:12] Victor

[12:18] Victor
    I even wanted to toss this

    I never realized how precious
    you really were to me.
[12:27] Victor
    I'm such a complete idiot!

    I see.
[13:11] Victor
    You're still alive?
[13:13] Aiks
    Yes, and thanks to that, I have a slightly
    better understanding of you now.
[13:18] Aiks
    Since you didn't cherish
    your family as a child,
[13:23] Aiks
    you now feel you have a debt.
[13:25] Aiks
    Because of that, even though you always
    discouraged dwelling in the past,
[13:29] Aiks
    you felt troubled. Am I correct?

    You knew it would put you in danger.
[02:40] Mina
    Why? There's no reason.
[02:44] Mina
    Kiri is my son. That's all.
[02:47] Mina
    It's only right to protect your family.
[02:51] Mina
    The blood of Chronos purifies Horologues.
[02:54] Mina
    Even if you eat me,
[02:55] Mina
    my blood will make sure...
[03:00] Mina
    you go with me!
[03:02] Mina
    I won't let you lay a finger on
    my darling or my stupid son!
[03:14] Victor
    Mina!
[03:30] Victor
    Damn it! Is there nothing
    we can do but watch?
[03:34] Blaze
    What else are we supposed to do, though?
[03:37] Blaze
    There's not a single move
    we can make right now!
[03:40] Kiri
    The blood of Chronos...
[03:55] (Flashback) Mina
    You stupid son!
[03:58] Kiri
    Stupid son, huh?
[04:01] Kiri
    She tried her hardest to protect
    not only Victor, but me, too.
[04:06] Kiri
    Isn't there...
[04:08] Kiri
    Isn't there a way?
[04:09] Kiri
    A way to protect Mina
[04:11] Kiri
    while defeating Aiks?
[04:18] Kiri
    Victor's cards... puddles...
[04:21] Kiri
    That's it!
[04:23] Kiri
    Victor, lend me a hand!
[04:30] Blaze
    Huh? Huh? What'd you say?
[04:32] Blaze
    Explain it again!
[04:34] Victor
    I knew you were my son.
[04:36] Victor
    In that case, we can protect Mina...
    no, your mother...
[04:39] Victor
    and defeat Aiks at the same time.
[04:41] Victor
    Two birds with one stone!
[04:43] Kiri
    Victor!
[04:46] Kiri
    I'm sorry.
[04:47] Kiri
    I don't have many memories of my mother,
[04:51] Kiri
    so I couldn't understand how you've felt
    since we came to Couljours at all.
[04:59] Kiri
    A mother is something irreplaceable,
[05:03] Kiri
    but all I could think about was my duty.
[05:10] Victor
    You're definitely a Virgo.
    Sensitive and prudent.
[05:14] Victor
    I'm not going to blame you for
    that now, after all this.
[05:17] Victor
    I'm your father, aren't I?
[05:22] Victor
    Well, ready to work together
    as father and son?
[05:32] Mina
    Darling?! How...
[05:34] Victor
    You'll know soon.
[05:37] Mina
    Wait!
[05:39] Aiks
    Fools.
[05:42] Both
    Slow Down!
[05:47] Aiks
    Why? Why isn't my attack digesting them?
[05:52] Kiri
    Just as we figured.
[05:54] Kiri
    The many puddles of rainwater around here,
[05:57] Kiri
    and Victor's dark-backed cards...
[05:59] Kiri
    Put one on top of the other,
[06:02] Kiri
    and you have an instant mirror!
[06:05] Kiri
    It's a simple trick,
    but with a massive effect.
[06:08] Kiri
    Your attack digests
    everything your eyes see.
[06:12] Kiri
    That should include you,
    once you're reflected in a mirror!
[06:16] Aiks
    By eating my own time,
[06:20] Aiks
    I've reverted to the time
    when I had a human form?
[06:22] Victor
    Kiri!
[06:23] Kiri
    Victor!
[06:25] Kiri
    True Rain of a Thousand Camps!
[06:28] Victor
    Ace Spring!
[06:33] Both
    They did it!
[06:36] Blaze
    Wh-What the hell is that?!
[06:42] Aiks
    Such remarkable power...
[06:57] Aiks
    I know that it's my main eating
    organ you're all aiming for.
[07:04] Aiks
    If you destroy this, all of your time
    will be returned to you, after all.
[07:09] Aiks
    However...
[07:11] Aiks
    Did you really think I would
    keep my most vital eating organ
[07:15] Aiks
    in a place where you could easily see it?
[07:18] Aiks
    You thought it was in my mouth
    all this time, didn't you?
[07:22] Aiks
    It's truly unfortunate for you,
[07:24] Aiks
    but I moved it to another
    part of my body long ago.
[07:28] Victor
    I'm surprised.
[07:30] Victor
    Even in that melodramatic form,
[07:32] Victor
    you'd still use such underhanded methods.
[07:35] Kiri
    Then we only need to crush
    your whole body to bits!
[07:39] Aiks
    I see.
[07:41] Aiks
    You still don't get it!
[07:45] Kiri
    What?!
SIGN    Slow Down
SIGN    Slow Down
[08:24] Aiks
    Please don't get the wrong idea.
[08:27] Aiks
    You people interfered in
    my observation of humans,
[08:30] Aiks
    and for that, I can't let you live.
[08:33] Aiks
    You had no chance of winning
    in the first place.
[08:36] Victor
    Is everyone alive?!
[08:38] Blaze
    Yeah, somehow...
[08:40] Kiri
    I'm... fine.
[08:43] Mina
    No prob—
[08:46] Victor
    It's no use. The rest of them
    clearly can't fight anymore.
[08:50] Victor
    Think, Victor! There must
    be a way to beat him!
[08:55] Victor
    At this rate, they'll all...
[08:56] Victor
    die!
[08:58] Kiri
    Is human strength just not enough to beat him?
[09:02] Kiri
    If we had the power to control an
    opponent's body, like Aisrehdar,
[09:05] Kiri
    would we have a chance?
[09:10] Victor
    Wait. Just maybe...
[09:30] Victor
    What do you think of my idea?
[09:32] Kiri
    No! It's too dangerous!
[09:33] Victor
    Shh. Not so loud.
[09:36] Kiri
    What—
[09:38] Kiri
    What are you thinking?
[09:39] Kiri
    If your idea fails, you're dead!
[09:42] Kiri
    No, even if it works,
    you might not come out unscathed!
[09:46] Victor
    But if it does work, we can beat him.
[09:48] Victor
    And we might even get back
    the time he stole from me.
[09:53] Victor
    Do you know of another way?
[09:55] Kiri
    But...
[09:56] Kiri
    Once a Horologue consumes time,
    it disappears in sixty seconds.
[10:01] Kiri
    Once that happens,
    there's no way to get it back!
[10:04] Kiri
    Snake told us that!
[10:05] Victor
    Well, then, what about Couljours?
[10:10] Victor
    Aiks spit up the time he'd had inside him,
[10:13] Victor
    and Couljours returned to its rightful form.
[10:18] Victor
    That got me thinking.
[10:20] Victor
    Horologues don't just
    digest the time they eat.
[10:23] Victor
    They must be able to save it, too.
[10:27] Victor
    Don't you think it's worth a try?
[10:30] Kiri
    No! Absolutely not!
[10:33] Victor
    Good grief.
[10:34] Victor
    This is the problem with you Virgo prudes.
[10:40] Kiri
    You would risk your life again
    based on a theory,
[10:42] Kiri
    with no guarantee that it'll work?
[10:45] Kiri
    Happiness doesn't grow on top of sacrifice.
[10:49] Kiri
    Being family means supporting each other
    and overcoming trials together!
[10:54] Kiri
    This is what Eve was talking about, Victor.
[10:57] Kiri
    You think you can do everything on your own,
[11:01] Kiri
    and you don't even think about the
    feelings of those you leave behind!
[11:13] Victor
    This plan depends on how much
    I can trust my friends,
[11:17] Victor
    and most of all, how much I can trust you.
[11:22] Victor
    As your father,
[11:24] Victor
    I trust you, my son.
[11:26] Victor
    So...
[11:31] Victor
    I entrust my life to you.
[11:34] Victor
    Take care of it, Kiri.
[11:39] Mina
    Darling!
[11:41] Mina
    What did you guys talk about?
[11:42] Mina
    What is he...
[11:43] Kiri
    It's okay. Have faith in him.
[11:46] Kiri
    He will beat Aiks for sure.
[12:02] Victor
    You must be getting hungry by now, huh?
[12:05] Aiks
    What does that mean?
[12:07] Victor
    This whole time, you've just
    been spinning your wheels,
[12:09] Victor
    eating houses and earth and things
    that don't fill you up at all, right?
[12:13] Victor
    So...
[12:16] Victor
    Have some refreshments, on me!
[12:18] Victor
    Eat your fill!
[12:20] Mina
    Darling?!
[12:24] Aiks
    How utterly foolish.
[12:27] Aiks
    However, if you choose death,
    I won't stop you!
[12:32] Victor
    Got him!
[12:33] Mina
    Darling!
[12:38] victor
    Slow Down!
[12:52] Victor
    Right from the start, the UNIQUE here has been
[12:54] Victor
    using immense power to stop my own
    time from flowing out of me!
[12:59] Victor
    What do you think will happen
    if that power is unleashed?
[13:02] Aiks
    What?
[13:04] Victor
    I'll be able to Slow Down your body itself!
[13:07] Aiks
    You would sacrifice your own life's time?
[13:16] Victor
    It's flowing out faster than I expected!
[13:18] Mina
    Darling!
[13:19] Kiri
    Don't!
[13:21] Mina
    Why are you stopping me?! He's going to die!
[13:23] Kiri
    Listen to me, Mina.
[13:27] (Flashback) Kiri
    What?!
[13:29] (Flashback) Victor
    If I do this, I can expose the main
    eating organ that Aiks has been hiding.
[13:34] (Flashback) Victor
    Then you, Mina, and Blaze
    will attack it all at once.
[13:37] (Flashback) Kiri
    No!
[13:39] (Flashback) Kiri
    If you're wrong, we won't
    have a second chance!
[13:41] (Flashback) Kiri
    I can't make that wager!
[13:45] (Flashback) Victor
    You blocked with your right hand, huh?
[13:47] (Flashback) Victor
    Habits can't be changed so easily.
[13:50] (Flashback) Victor
    Aiks is more likely to use his main
    eating organ when in immediate danger.
[13:55] (Flashback) Kiri
    Hang on!
[13:56] (Flashback) Kiri
    Even if it's "more likely,"
    that still leaves room for exceptions!
[14:01] (Flashback) Victor
    I'm a gambler.
[14:03] (Flashback) Victor
    What good am I if I turn down
    a do-or-die game like this?
[14:07] Blaze
    For real? That's a damn crazy thing to do.

    What happened to me?

    What is this?
[16:49] Victor
    Oh... Right.
[16:51] Victor
    I'm going to disappear...
[16:53] Victor
    I have to get back, fast!
[17:00] Victor
    It's no use! It's too far!

[17:30] Victor
    I'm sorry.
[17:32] Eve
    Vic.
[17:37] Victor
    Mom...
[17:38] Eve
    To work together with your friends,
[17:40] Eve
    to trust them, and to claim victory.
[17:44] Eve
    You now know what a true victor is.
[17:47] Victor
    Yeah...
[17:48] Victor
    But this is the first and last time.
[17:51] Victor
    I'm going to be with you guys now.
[17:53] Eve
    You can't.
[17:55] Alex
    Victor, you mustn't come here.
[17:59] Eve
    Where you must return to isn't here.
[18:02] Eve
    It's to your friends...
    no, to your new family.
[18:08] Eve
    You can hear their voices, can't you?
[18:13] Kiri
    Victor! Come back!
[18:15] Mina
    Darling!
[18:17] Blaze
    Victor!

[18:22] Kiri
    Dad!
[18:24] Kiri
    Dad... What am I supposed to do without you?
[18:28] Kiri
    All I've done for so long is
    fight to get your memories back.
[18:33] Kiri
    So what am I supposed to do now?!
[18:40] Alex
    Live, Victor.
[18:43] Eve
    We'll always be watching over you, Vic.
[18:55] Blaze
    H-Hey...
[19:15] Kiri
    Victor?
[19:23] Victor
    I think you mean "Dad," don't you?
[19:27] Mina
    Darling!
[19:30] Mina
    I was so worried!
[19:33] Victor
    I saw you crying, you know.
[19:36] Victor
    It was actually cute.
[19:38] Kiri
    Wh-What are you... saying?
[19:42] Victor
    I thought I could finally
    get some good rest,
[19:45] Victor
    and then you woke me up screaming,
    "Dad! Dad!"
[19:50] Kiri
    I said... no such thing!
[19:53] Blaze
    So, uh, what?
[19:55] Blaze
    Victor slugged Aiks's eating organ,
    then only his clothes were left...
[19:59] Blaze
    And then... wait...
[20:03] Mina
    I was worried about you.
[20:11] Kiri
    Victor, the town is already...
[20:29] Victor
    That's right... Mom's gift
    to celebrate my adulthood...
[20:33] victor
    I'm 27 years late, but I
    finally got to accept it.
[20:55] Guy
    Couljours?
[20:56] Guy
    I thought that place was
    reduced to ruins years ago.
[21:00] Guy
    And you just came from there?
    You guys have some strange taste.
[21:09] Kiri
    Strange taste, huh? That may be true.
[21:12] Blaze
    Hey!
[21:13] Mina
    What are you doing?!
[21:15] Kiri
    Jeez... Those guys just don't understand
    the sentimentality of traveling.
[21:19] Blaze
    Get over here now!
[21:20] Mina
    We're gonna leave you here!
[21:21] Mina
    Hurry up!
[21:30] Blaze
    We made it.
[21:31] Mina
    We almost missed boarding
    because of you! You virgin!
[21:35] Victor
    Mina.
[21:36] Victor
    Kiri's just a child, so there are lots
    of things he doesn't do in time.
[21:40] Victor
    Like going to the potty.
[21:41] Kiri
    Don't make it sound like I peed myself!
[21:44] Victor
    And he can't even eat
    pasta through his nose.
[21:47] Kiri
    That has nothing to do with it!
[21:48] Mina
    What?! He can't even eat
    pasta through his nose?
[21:52] Mina
    Pathetic!
[21:54] Blaze
    Pasta through your nose? I can
    eat it through my butt—
[21:56] Kiri
    Shut up, Blaze!
[22:18] Kiri
    It isn't over yet.
[22:20] Victor
    What isn't?
[22:21] Kiri
    Getting your time back.
[22:23] Kiri
    Since you still look like that, Aiks...
[22:27] Victor
    ...must still be alive somewhere.
[22:30] Victor
    Boy, is he ever stubborn.
[22:33] Kiri
    Do you regret it?
[22:35] Kiri
    Missing a chance like that?
[22:38] Victor
    There'll always be more chances.
[22:41] Victor
    All we need to do is keep
    moving toward the future.
[22:46] Victor
    Time that's passed will never return.
[22:49] Victor
    But, even if everything is lost,
[22:52] Victor
    as long as you have those
    you hold dear to you,
[22:55] Victor
    and your bonds with those
    around you now in your heart,
[23:00] Victor
    you can always take off
    toward the future again.
[23:03] Victor
    I can believe that with all my heart now.
[23:08] Victor
    So, Kiri...
[23:11] Victor
    Eat this pasta through your nose.
[23:14] Kiri
    What does that have to do with it?
[23:16] Victor
    It's long, thin pasta that's
    connected to the future.
[23:18] Kiri
    Shut up!
[23:20] Kiri
    For crying out loud... You never change.
[23:23] Victor
    That's the problem with children.
[23:24] Victor
    Not changing is much harder
    than changing, you know.
