[00:02] Aiks
The one human emotion I
do understand is fear...
[00:07] Aiks
And that, for me, is the
most precious asset of all!
[00:13] Victor
Kiri!
[00:19] Alex
Aiks brought our family back together.
We owe him everything.
[00:24] KidVic
If you kill Aiks, we'll disappear forever.
[00:28] KidVic
Is that what you want?
[00:37] Victor
Get it together!
[00:39] Victor
Mom and Dad are already dead!
[00:41] Victor
I can't save Kiri if I
stay trapped in the past!
[00:47] Victor
I am
[00:49] Victor
a victor!
[00:55] Eve
Time to say goodbye, Vic.
SIGN March 29 15:58
[02:53] Aiks
Were you holding back?
[02:55] Aiks
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.
[03:27] Victor
Shut up.
[03:29] Aiks
"Shut up"?
[03:31] Aiks
What does that mean?
[03:33] Aiks
Does it signify your agreement?
Or perhaps refusal?
[03:37] Aiks
Oh, I see!
[03:40] Aiks
You've used up all of your cards!
[03:43] Aiks
Then I shall observe you
in a more direct manner!
[03:49] Kiri
Victor!
[04:00] Eve
If you defeat Aiks, the town
will return to normal,
[04:04] Eve
and you'll never see us again.
[04:07] Victor
Mom...
[04:09] Eve
Will you kill me?
[04:13] Girl
All that about you having
a kind heart was a lie.
[04:16] Guy
You just want to be saved yourself.
[04:18] Alex
Parricide.
[04:19] Girl
Disgraceful.
[04:20] KidVic
Selfish.
[04:21] Eve
You'll kill your parents.
Kill... Kill... Kill... Kill... Kill...
[04:26] Victor
No!
[04:29] Victor
Mom, you're already...
[04:33] Victor
You're already dead!
[04:51] Aiks
A fist...
[04:53] Aiks
Did you think the single fist of
a mere human could defeat me?
[04:59] Victor
I won't let you
[05:02] Victor
have your way
[05:04] Victor
with my memories any longer!
[05:09] Aiks
Speed Up? But how?
[05:13] Aiks
You were hiding a card in your hand?
[05:26] Kiri
Time...
[05:45] Blaze
What are those lights?
[05:47] Blaze
What the hell is going on?
[05:49] Mina
A Horologue is spitting up the
time that it had swallowed.
[05:53] Mina
This is what this town should look like.
[05:56] Blaze
Huh? Say what?!
[06:00] Kiri
Time is coming back?
[06:04] Kiri
You did it, Victor!
[06:06] Kiri
Victor?
[06:16] Kiri
Victor, let's go to the clinic.
[06:19] Kiri
We'll go to the clinic. If we
go now, we can still see them.
[06:24] Victor
No, it's all right.
[06:27] Victor
My parents' time is coming to an end.
[06:30] Victor
What can I do for them now?
[06:32] Kiri
It's not ending!
[06:34] Kiri
You're going to end it!
[06:38] Kiri
Face time! Stare down reality!
[06:42] Kiri
If you don't,
[06:43] Kiri
you'll never be freed from
the regrets of your past!
[07:09] Eve
Oh...
[07:10] Eve
You're here!
[07:13] Eve
What's wrong? Come in and have a seat.
[07:23] Eve
It's all right.
[07:26] Eve
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.
[11:14] Eve
You're gentle,
[11:15] Eve
you're kind,
[11:17] Eve
you have a strong sense of duty,
[11:19] Eve
and above all, you have
many wonderful friends.
[11:23] Eve
You're exactly the man I hoped you would be.
[11:28] Eve
Thank you, Victor.
[11:33] Eve
I'm so glad
SIGN Thank You for Being Born
[11:36] Eve
I got to be your mother.
[11:47] Eve
Victor...
[11:48] Victor
Mom...
[11:51] Victor
I've...
[11:53] Victor
The truth is, I've...
[11:59] Victor
I've wanted to see you all this time, Mom!
[12:03] Victor
I wanted to see you and apologize.
[12:05] Victor
I always wanted to apologize.
[12:08] Victor
As a child, I was so selfish.
[12:12] Victor
I don't even know how many times I hurt you.
[12:15] Victor
I called you stupid.
[12:18] Victor
I even wanted to toss this
family aside and run away.
[12:22] Victor
I never realized how precious
you really were to me.
[12:27] Victor
I'm such a complete idiot!
[12:31] Victor
I'm sorry, Mom.
[12:50] Kiri
Was I right to do this?
[12:54] Kiri
Or did I only cause Victor pain?
[13:04] Kiri
Aiks!
[13:08] Aiks
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?
[13:32] Aiks
Then in order to prove my theory,
[13:35] Aiks
I will repeat the experiment one more time!
[13:41] Eve
Vic!
[13:44] Victor
Enough. It ends here.
[13:46] Aiks
It ends here?
[13:48] Aiks
Are you saying my theory
has been proven correct?
[13:54] Aiks
In that case...
[13:55] Aiks
I call off the experiment.
[13:59] Aiks
Thank you for your cooperation.
[14:01] Aiks
I have come to understand
one more human emotion.
[14:05] Kiri
You—
[14:05] Victor
Don't, Kiri.
[14:07] Kiri
Victor! Why'd you stop me?!
[14:12] Victor
When you came to understand that
human emotion, what did you think?
[14:17] Aiks
What do you mean?
[14:18] Victor
Was it fun? Did it excite you?
[14:21] Victor
Or did you find it amusing?
[14:24] Aiks
Ah...
[14:29] Aiks
I felt nothing whatsoever.
[14:37] Victor
You killed my family and brought
them back over and over again,
[14:42] Victor
toying with them in the
name of your experiment,
[14:44] Victor
and then you say you didn't feel a thing?!
[14:49] Victor
I'll make you pay for that.
[15:08] Mina
Darling!
[15:10] Kiri
Mina! Blaze!
[15:14] Mina
They're your cards!
[15:17] Victor
To get my time back,
[15:20] Victor
and to ensure that you can never toy
with anyone's emotions again...
[15:25] Victor
On my name, Victor Putin
the Chronos Ruler...
[15:29] Victor
I will defeat you!
[15:32] Aiks
Defeat me?
[15:34] Aiks
Now that I've spit up this town's time,
[15:38] Aiks
I feel exceptionally good.
[15:41] Aiks
Even if all of you attack me at once,
[15:44] Aiks
your odds of defeating me are zero percent!
[15:52] Victor
There is no gamble with a
100 percent chance of victory!
[15:56] Aiks
Their fear is gone?
[16:05] Blaze
Hey, is that all you know how to do?!
[16:11] Mina
Now! Knock him out before
his arms regenerate!
[16:18] Aiks
I can't understand it.
[16:20] Aiks
Humans invariably feel fear
in the face of death.
[16:24] Aiks
So why do they feel no fear now?
[16:28] Aiks
Oh, of course!
SIGN Gastas Evil
[16:32] Aiks
They don't fear their deaths enough yet!
[16:39] Victor
Kiri!
[16:47] Kiri
Just touching his wings did that?
[16:50] Victor
Kiri, get back!
[16:53] Aiks
My wings are made of a dissolving liquid.
[16:57] Aiks
By simply touching an object,
they digest it, reducing it to nothing.
[17:00] Kiri
He can not only heal his own wounds,
but erase anything he touches, too?
[17:05] Blaze
That's dirty, damn it!
[17:08] Aiks
Yes... That reaction, those expressions...
[17:12] Aiks
It's the one emotion I understand: fear!
[17:16] Aiks
How truly wonderful!
[17:25] [SONG] ---
Speed Up
[17:26] Aiks
It was a wise decision
to target me directly.
[17:29] Aiks
However...
[17:32] Aiks
It is futile!
[17:34] [SONG] Text
Speed Up
[17:34] Aiks
You still wish to fight?
[17:36] Aiks
I told you that it's futile!
[17:38] Victor
Not necessarily.
[17:41] Victor
Speed Up!
[17:44] Aiks
What?
[17:45] Aiks
His cards should have been digested
once they touched me.
[17:49] Victor
If I Speed Up my cards to their utmost limit,
they won't be digested right away.
[17:53] Victor
I'm used to going against the flow
of time with Slow Down, you see.
[17:58] Aiks
He fights with no fear of me at all?
SIGN The Year 1860
[18:17] (Flashback) Woman
He's a monster...
[18:18] (Flashback) Man
Please!
[18:19] Woman
No... No!
[18:19] (Flashback) Man
Spare us!
[18:28] Aiks
This is the emotion called "fear."
[18:32] Aiks
No matter how many humans I
eat, all I ever sense is fear.
[18:39] (Flashback) Voice
What a glutton you are.
[18:42] (Flashback) Voice
You understand no emotion but fear,
nor have you any feelings yourself.
[18:47] (Flashback) Voice
Your pure white appearance,
just like a blank sheet of paper,
[18:53] (Flashback) Voice
holds infinite possibilities.
[18:56] (Flashback) Voice
I will give you the name "Aiks,"
meaning "unknown."
[19:02] (Flashback) Voice
Well? Will you submit to me?
[19:06] (Flashback) Voice
I can offer you an endless supply of food
[19:09] (Flashback) Voice
and help you understand human emotions.
[19:20] Aiks
How many years has it been
since I met His Majesty?
[19:27] Aiks
No matter how many human memories I eat,
[19:30] Aiks
I still can't understand
any emotion but fear.
[19:33] Aiks
Fear... The one emotion I understand...
[19:37] Aiks
The one asset I have...
[19:39] Aiks
And yet I can't sense any fear coming
from the humans in front of me?
[19:45] Aiks
It simply makes no sense!
[19:50] Kiri
Slow Down causes the dissolving liquid
in your wings to work more slowly.
[19:54] Kiri
Then, the moment it passes
through your wings...
[19:57] Kiri
Speed Up!
[19:59] Kiri
Blade of a Thousand Lights!
[20:03] Kiri
Once you know the trick to beating it...
[20:06] Blaze
Yes!
[20:09] Kiri
Even a fool can do it.
[20:14] Blaze
Hey! Who are you calling a fool?!
[20:16] Kiri
Crap.
[20:18] Blaze
I'll have you know that I—
[20:21] Victor
Enough playing around.
[20:22] Victor
Let's finish this now!
[20:45] Mina
Get out of the way!
[21:02] Aiks
In human form...
[21:04] Aiks
My body is too fragile
to use my full strength.
[21:10] Aiks
So I'll show you.
[21:12] Aiks
This is...
[21:14] Aiks
my true form!
[21:24] Blaze
What the hell is that?
[21:33] Aiks
Gastas Ray!
[21:47] Kiri
Victor!
