**[00:00] Blade**
Yum!
**[00:02] Blade**
Tonkatsu curry is so good!
**[00:05] Earnest**
Hey, Blade. You've got food on your face.
**[00:09] Sophie**
I'll wipe it clean.
**[00:15] Earnest**
Ah!
**[00:16] Earnest**
What are you two doing?!
**[00:18] Blade**
*You* brought it up.
**[00:20] Yessica**
Heya.
**[00:22] Claire**
Anna, mind if we join you?
**[00:24] Earnest**
You're still calling me Anna?
**[00:26] Earnest**
Not that I mind.
**[00:27] Yessica**
Thanks, Anna.
**[00:31] Yessica**
Hey, Blade.
**[00:32] Yessica**
How do these outfits look on us?
**[00:34] Blade**
How, you ask?
**[00:36] Claire**
Oh, I suddenly feel so self-conscious.
**[00:39] Earnest**
That's right. Today's the day, isn't it?
**[00:42] Earnest**
Congratulations on moving up,
all four of you.
**[00:44] Blade**
Huh?
**[00:45] Blade**
You mean they're all in the advanced class?
**[00:47] Kassim**
Didn't even notice, huh?
**[00:49] Clay**
That's why we're allowed to dress freely now.
**[00:52] Yessica**
So how do we look?
**[00:53] Yessica**
Any thoughts?
**[00:54] Blade**
I bet you're freezing.
**[00:57] Leonard**
Why, how do you do, my fair ladies?
**[01:00] Leonard**
Oh! I'm utterly entranced by your beauty!
**[01:04] Claire**
Um...
**[01:06] Yessica**
Hey, Anna.
**[01:07] Yessica**
Who's this gorgeous fella here?
**[01:09] Leonard**
I'm quite flattered, really.
**[01:11] Leonard**
Unfortunately, I love all
women in equal measure.
**[01:15] Leonard**
I cannot let myself be bound to just one.
**[01:16] Earnest**
We get it, Leonard.
**[01:18] Earnest**
Anyway, Blade, have you heard?
**[01:21] Blade**
Hmm?
**[01:22] Earnest**
I hear His Majesty the King is having a
magical beast brought here to the school.
**[01:27] Kassim**
You mean we have to fight it for training?
**[01:30] Clay**
No way, that's way too extreme...
**[01:32] Blade**
Hmm...
**[01:34] Earnest**
"Hmm," you say?!
**[01:34] Earnest**
It's a magical beast!
**[01:35] Blade**
Well, I wouldn't put it past that old fart.
**[01:39] Earnest**
"Old fart"?! That's lèse-majesté!
**[01:41] Blade**
Whatever, he deserves it.
**[01:45] Student G**
An earthquake?!
**[01:48] Sophie**
Blade.
**[01:49] Earnest**
Wait, could it be...
**[01:52] Earnest**
Everyone!
**[01:55] Sophie**
We should have everyone take shelter.
**[01:58] Blade**
Sheesh.
***SIGN*** Episode 3
***SIGN*** Cu Chulainn
**[03:38] Soldier**
Someone call for His Majesty!
**[03:40] Soldier**
He's the only one who can handle a dragon!
**[03:43] Crowd 1**
Be careful!
**[03:44] Crowd 2**
Take cover!
**[03:49] Blade**
This is the magical beast?
**[03:50] Earnest**
What?
**[03:51] Earnest**
A dragon?!
**[03:57] Earnest**
Wait!
**[04:04] Crowd 3**
Look out!
**[04:06] Crowd 4**
You there, get back!
**[04:08] Crowd 5**
Run for it!
**[04:18] Blade**
Sit!
**[04:23] Blade**
There.
**[04:24] Earnest**
Blade, did you just subdue a
dragon with your bare hands?
**[04:28] Blade**
Huh? This one's still young.
**[04:30] Blade**
You must have been scared,
being dragged all the way here.
**[04:33] Blade**
Or are you hungry?
**[04:36] Blade**
Here.
**[04:41] Blade**
Too spicy for you?
**[04:42] Student D**
No way... Without any weapons?
**[04:42] Student Q**
A dragon, with one blow?
**[04:44] Student E**
I can't believe it!
**[04:46] Blade**
No way, this is normal!
**[04:49] Blade**
It's normal, right?
**[04:55] Blade**
It's not like it's a Great Dragon,
or an Ancient Dragon!
**[04:59] Blade**
Anyone could take down this
little dragon with a single hit!
**[05:03] Blade**
Um, well...
**[05:07] Earnest**
Eh?!
**[05:08] Blade**
Huh?
**[05:09] Earnest**
B-Behind you!
**[05:11] Blade**
Behind me?
**[05:13] Cu**
Parent!
**[05:15] Blade**
Whoa, what?!
**[05:16] Cu**
So you're my parent!
**[05:19] Blade**
Parent?
**[05:20] Blade**
Wait, what are you going on about?
**[05:21] Cu**
I've finally found you, Parent!
**[05:23] Cu**
So play with me!
**[05:25] Blade**
I'll go and find your parents later.
**[05:28] Blade**
There.
**[05:29] Blade**
Anyway, where did that dragon run off to?
**[05:32] Earnest**
Th-Th-The dragon shrank
down into that little girl!
**[05:33] Cu**
Play with me!
**[05:35] Cu**
Parent, play with me!
**[05:36] Blade**
Huh? That's impossible!
**[05:38] Cu**
Play with me!
**[05:39] Blade**
Hey, be quiet for a second!
**[05:41] Cu**
Aye.
**[05:42] Cu**
If you insist, I am more
than willing to be quiet.
**[05:46] Blade**
Mm-hmm.
**[05:47] Blade**
So, where's the dragon?
**[05:49] Earnest**
Like I said, that girl...
**[05:51] Blade**
Surely you joke.
**[05:52] Sophie**
Blade. I saw it, too.
**[05:54] Sophie**
Her true form is a dragon.
**[05:56] Blade**
What?!
**[05:57] Blade**
She's a dragon, for real?
**[05:58] Earnest**
That's what I've been saying!
**[06:00] Earnest**
Why do you believe Sophie and not me?!
**[06:02] Cu**
Parent.
**[06:03] Cu**
I did as you said and stayed quiet.
**[06:06] Cu**
A whole ten seconds, just for you.
**[06:08] Cu**
Now play with me!
**[06:10] Blade**
Wait, why are you calling me your parent?!
**[06:13] Cu**
That punch earlier was something else!
**[06:16] Cu**
I'd expect nothing less from my parent!
**[06:18] Cu**
Parent!
**[06:20] Cu**
Play with me! Play with me!
**[06:22] Blade**
Wh-What now?
**[06:23] Cu**
Play with me!
**[06:24] Cu**
Play with me! Play with me! Play with me!
**[06:31] Cu**
The roots of my horns are sensitive!
**[06:34] Cu**
Don't be rough with them!
**[06:36] Blade**
Sure, got it.
**[06:38] Blade**
How'd I end up doing this?
**[06:41] Cu**
That tickles!
**[06:42] Blade**
Hey, don't run away, Cu!
**[06:45] Cu**
Parent!
**[06:47] Cu**
What does the name you gave me,
Cu Chulainn, mean?
**[06:51] Blade**
It's the name of a devoted knight, who was
really strong and always kept promises.
**[06:57] Cu**
Aye. I can keep a promise.
**[07:00] Cu**
A dragon upholds an oath
even if it costs them their life.
**[07:04] Earnest**
Blade?
**[07:05] Earnest**
Where are you, Blade?
**[07:08] Earnest**
Y-You moron!
**[07:09] Earnest**
If you were in the bath,
you should have said so!
**[07:11] Blade**
Hey, you didn't give me any time to respond!
**[07:14] Blade**
So, did you learn anything?
**[07:16] Earnest**
Oh, yeah.
**[07:18] Earnest**
Magical beasts, including dragons,
are creatures who seek out strength.
**[07:22] Earnest**
When one is vanquished, its flesh may perish,
**[07:24] Earnest**
but a fragment of its soul lingers
as an agglomerate of knowledge.
**[07:29] Earnest**
And when that soul becomes
incarnated as another entity,
**[07:33] Earnest**
it mimics the shape of the
stronger being that finished it off.
**[07:37] Earnest**
Perhaps it's an evolutionary
instinct to seek out strength.
**[07:40] Blade**
So you mean a dragon defeated by a
human can end up taking a human form?
**[07:44] Earnest**
But it's an extremely rare occurrence.
**[07:47] Earnest**
Not a lot of humans can take down
a high-level beast like a dragon.
**[07:51] Blade**
Huh? Y-Yeah, you're right!
**[07:53] Blade**
You think Cu was vanquished
by a human in her past life?
**[07:57] Earnest**
Cu? That's her name?
**[07:59] Earnest**
Did you give her that name, Blade?
**[08:01] Cu**
That's right!
**[08:02] Cu**
It's a name that pleases me greatly!
**[08:04] Earnest**
What?!
**[08:05] Blade**
What's wrong, Earnest?
**[08:07] Earnest**
You pervert!
**[08:10] Earnest**
Unbelievable!
**[08:11] Earnest**
Unbelievable!
**[08:13] Blade**
What was that for?
**[08:20] Cu**
Parent, I'm hungry!
**[08:22] Blade**
You can feed yourself, you know.
**[08:24] Blade**
Here.
**[08:29] Cu**
I'm perfectly capable of
feeding myself, of course.
**[08:32] Cu**
However, being fed by Parent makes
the food taste that much better!
**[08:39] Claire**
Um, do you mind if I also feed Cu?
**[08:42] Cu**
No!
**[08:44] Cu**
I won't be friends with weakling humans!
**[08:45] Yessica**
There, there.
**[08:46] Blade**
Hey! Look at how scared Claire is.
**[08:49] Cu**
You're my parent now,
so you should only pay attention to me!
**[08:54] Cu**
In the morning, you need to
give me good morning smooches,
**[08:57] Cu**
and for meals, you must let me
sit in your lap and feed me!
**[09:01] Blade**
Ah. Yeah, yeah.
**[09:02] Group**
You do that?!
**[09:04] Blade**
Do what?
**[09:05] Earnest**
Morning... smooches...
**[09:07] Blade**
I haven't done that.
**[09:09] Cu**
Besides, you spend all your time
staring at mature adult female bodies!
**[09:14] Cu**
I find that unacceptable!
**[09:16] Group**
What?!
**[09:16] Blade**
Hey, don't go wandering off by—
**[09:18] Earnest**
Wait, Blade!
**[09:19] Clay**
You were staring?
**[09:20] Blade**
At what, exactly?
**[09:21] Yessica**
Sounds like he's guilty.
**[09:23] Claire**
What an awful thing to do!
**[09:25] Clay**
He's guilty, all right...
**[09:26] Kassim**
Guilty!
**[09:26] Leonard**
Not gentlemanly at all.
**[09:28] Sophie**
I can only describe you as despicable.
**[09:30] Earnest**
Well, then...
**[09:31] Earnest**
By unanimous verdict,
we the jury find Blade guilty.
**[09:41] Priestess**
Um, Earnest...
**[09:44] Scientist**
Blade's looking at us
like he wants to join in.
**[09:47] Earnest**
And so what if he does?
**[09:49] Priestess**
Oh, no...
**[09:50] Scientist**
Never mind.
**[09:57] Blade**
Hey! Cu!
**[09:58] Blade**
Wanna join me?
**[10:06] Cu**
I don't need any training,
but if you insist, Parent,
**[10:11] Cu**
I'm more than willing to show off my power.
**[10:14] Blade**
Yeah, yeah.
**[10:14] Clay**
Hey, Blade.
**[10:16] Kassim**
We were told to group up with you.
**[10:18] Clay**
Show us the ropes for the advanced class.
**[10:20] Blade**
Oh, sure thing.
**[10:22] Yessica**
Hey, I was hoping to specialize
in espionage as a spy.
**[10:26] Yessica**
Who should I have teach me?
**[10:27] Blade**
Sophie would be the one with those skills.
**[10:29] Yessica**
Sophity!
**[10:32] Sophie**
...Ty?
**[10:33] Yessica**
Sophity!
**[10:34] Sophie**
What?
**[10:35] Clay**
Then I guess it'll be us four.
**[10:37] Blade**
Oh, almost forgot.
**[10:40] Blade**
Huh?
**[10:41] Blade**
Where did Cu run off to?
**[10:43] Claire**
Cu?
**[10:44] Blade**
Man, she never listens to me.
**[10:48] Cu**
Nothing beats morning smooches!
**[11:06] Student K**
That girl's back again.
**[11:08] Student B**
If you're interested, wanna join in?
**[11:10] Student B**
We'd be happy to have you.
**[11:13] Student N**
Won't you be friends with us?
**[11:20] Cu**
You're no match for me at all.
**[11:27] Blade**
What were you up to, Cu?
**[11:31] Cu**
Nothing.
**[11:33] Cu**
Never mind that, Parent.
**[11:34] Cu**
My stomach is empty!
**[11:36] Cu**
I'm starving!
**[11:38] Blade**
Okay, tonkatsu curry it is!
**[11:40] Cu**
You know me too well!
**[11:42] Cu**
But don't make it spicy!
**[11:45] Cu**
Also, I absolutely refuse to eat carrots!
**[12:05] Earnest**
Blade, are you in there?
**[12:09] Blade**
Dragons are tormented by their parents
immediately after they're born.
**[12:13] Blade**
The child, learning that something
stronger than it exists,
**[12:17] Blade**
imprints onto that thing as its parent.
**[12:19] Earnest**
So that's why?
**[12:21] Blade**
Maybe she's been alone since she was born.
**[12:25] Earnest**
You realize though, don't you?
**[12:29] Earnest**
You can't keep pretending to be her parent.
**[12:32] Blade**
I know that.
**[12:34] Blade**
But if I'm not there as her parent,
she'll end up truly alone in the world.
**[12:40] Blade**
You know how much it
hurts to be alone, right?
**[12:43] Earnest**
That's not fair!
**[12:44] Earnest**
How am I supposed to argue
anything after that?
**[12:48] Blade**
Sorry.
**[12:50] Earnest**
It's fine.
**[12:51] Earnest**
Now I know that you were serious when
you decided to take care of her.
**[12:56] Earnest**
That reassured you as well, right, Sophie?
**[12:59] Blade**
Sophie?!
**[13:04] Earnest**
Wait, you didn't realize she was there?
**[13:06] Earnest**
I ran into her on my way to your room.
**[13:09] Earnest**
She's just like me.
**[13:10] Earnest**
Looks like she was worried about you.
**[13:13] Blade**
Things are going well with Cu,
and there's nothing to worry about.
**[13:17] Sophie**
I see.
**[13:21] Earnest**
I'll be heading back, too.
**[13:23] Earnest**
I wouldn't want rumors to spread about
me sneaking off at night to see a boy.
**[13:34] Blade**
Huh?
**[13:43] Blade**
What's wrong, Cu?
**[13:51] Cu**
Looking at those calms me down.
**[13:53] Blade**
The moons, huh?
**[13:55] Cu**
The big one's the parent,
and the small one's the child.
**[13:59] Cu**
That's why they're always together.
**[14:01] Cu**
I would look up at them all the time
when I was alone in the wasteland.
**[14:05] Blade**
Hey, Cu...
**[14:06] Blade**
Deep down, don't you want to make friends?
**[14:09] Cu**
Parent, you're gravely mistaken.
**[14:12] Cu**
Dragons are far sturdier than humans,
both physically and mentally.
**[14:17] Cu**
We do not form flocks.
**[14:19] Cu**
We live alone, and we die alone.
**[14:21] Cu**
That's what it means to be a dragon.
**[14:24] Cu**
Therefore, I have no need for friends at all!
**[14:27] Cu**
Besides, the only one I need is you!
**[14:31] Blade**
You sure are strong, Cu.
**[14:32] Cu**
That hurts, Parent!
**[14:36] Cu**
I swear, you sure are hopeless.
**[14:44] King**
Do you realize exactly who I am?
**[14:51] King**
This isn't a day care center.
**[14:53] Blade**
Look, who else can I turn to?
**[14:55] Blade**
We're the only two people
who can look after Cu.
**[14:58] Blade**
So, where's Cu?
**[15:00] King**
Oh, do I have a story for you.
**[15:05] (Flashback) King**
You're so adorable!
**[15:06] (Flashback) King**
Cuddle, cuddle.
**[15:10] (Flashback) King**
Cuddle, cuddle.
**[15:11] (Flashback) King**
Ow, that smarts!
**[15:12] (Flashback) Cu**
Your beard is so prickly!
**[15:13] (Flashback) Cu**
Is that an attack?
**[15:14] (Flashback) Cu**
Are you attacking me?!
**[15:17] King**
She burst out of the room, just like that.
**[15:19] Blade**
You can't even babysit?!
**[15:21] Blade**
So useless!
**[15:22] King**
Oh!
**[15:23] King**
Being reprimanded isn't half-bad!
**[15:26] King**
Scold me harder!
**[15:27] Blade**
This guy's a goner.
**[15:31] Blade**
Sheesh...
**[15:33] Blade**
Where in the world did Cu go?
**[15:41] Cu**
Come now!
**[15:41] Cu**
You mustn't bully that dragon whelp!
**[15:43] Cu**
Why, the poor thing!
**[15:45] Cu**
Agh! You've got the wrong idea, Blade!
**[15:47] Cu**
I wasn't bullying her!
**[15:49] Cu**
Glower!
**[15:51] Cu**
You fool! That won't work!
**[15:53] Cu**
What?! My eyebeam attack!
**[15:56] Blade**
*Are those dolls supposed
to be me and Earnest?*
**[15:58] Cu**
Bullying is wrong! Always!
**[16:00] Cu**
Earnest, you're incorrigible!
**[16:02] Cu**
Oh, I'm so sorry!
**[16:05] Cu**
You fool! I won't accept your apology!
**[16:08] Blade**
*What awful slander.*
**[16:12] Cu**
Oh!
**[16:13] Cu**
Can you please be friends with my daughter?
**[16:16] Cu**
Roger. Totes can do.
**[16:18] Blade**
*Sophie?*
**[16:23] Cu**
Head pats for Cu!
**[16:25] Cu**
Not fair, Claire!
**[16:26] Cu**
I want to pat her head, too!
**[16:28] Blade**
*Claire and Yessica, huh?*
**[16:29] Cu**
Oh! I love all women in equal measure.
**[16:33] Blade**
*That's gotta be Leonard.*
**[16:35] Blade**
*That said, she sure is observant.*
**[16:44] Cu**
Hello, Altia.
**[16:46] Cu**
Good morning, Ilya.
**[16:48] Cu**
Makino, late again?
**[16:50] Cu**
Karima, good day to you.
**[16:52] Cu**
Marcia, Michael, Eddy.
**[16:54] Cu**
How have you all been?
**[16:56] Cu**
Curtis, Isabella, Marie, Alan.
**[16:59] Cu**
See you tomorrow.
**[17:00] Cu**
James, Sarah, Zuimos, Herrera, Olga, Irina!
**[17:01] Blade**
*I haven't heard these names before...*
**[17:04] Blade**
*Every student in the school?*
**[17:05] Blade**
*No way...*
**[17:06] Cu**
Oh!
**[17:08] Cu**
That makes 108 friends for my daughter!
**[17:22] Blade**
*I didn't even notice...*
**[17:30] Earnest**
Oh, did you find Cu?
**[17:42] Earnest**
Wh-What?!
**[17:49] Earnest**
You idiot! Stop that!
**[17:51] Earnest**
Hey! Cut it out, Blade!
**[17:56] Earnest**
Tell me exactly what happened.
**[18:03] Blade**
What Cu needs are friends.
**[18:06] Earnest**
Yes, I agree.
**[18:07] Blade**
But it's not possible because of her nature.
**[18:11] Blade**
Dragons can't acknowledge anyone
weaker than them as an equal.
**[18:15] Blade**
It's not in their nature.
**[18:18] Blade**
For her to recognize someone as her friend,
**[18:20] Blade**
they need to defeat her.
**[18:23] Blade**
It doesn't mean anything if I beat her.
**[18:26] Blade**
I can't be her friend.
**[18:28] Blade**
There's nothing I can do...
**[18:31] Earnest**
Nope. There's nothing you can do.
**[18:37] Earnest**
In that case, turn to someone else!
**[18:39] Earnest**
You can't fix it all by yourself!
**[18:42] Earnest**
If so, then depend on others.
**[18:44] Earnest**
I asked you for help not too long ago.
**[18:49] Earnest**
It's unfair!
**[18:50] Earnest**
I relied on you,
yet you won't do the same!
**[18:53] Earnest**
What intolerable arrogance!
**[18:54] Blade**
Well, um...
**[18:55] Earnest**
Just shut up and reach out for help!
**[18:58] Earnest**
From me!
**[18:59] Earnest**
From all of us!
**[19:11] Student B**
Wait, is that...
**[19:12] Student M**
The Empress?!
**[19:14] Student I**
The new kid's with her, too.
**[19:24] Blade**
I have a favor to ask all of you.
**[19:26] Blade**
You know Cu, don't you?
**[19:28] Blade**
I want you to fight Cu,
a dragon, and beat her!
**[19:32] Student B**
Easier said than done...
**[19:34] Student L**
We can't go up against a dragon.
**[19:38] Blade**
I'm begging you!
**[19:40] Blade**
Please become friends with my daughter!
**[19:44] Earnest**
I'm asking you as well.
**[19:46] Earnest**
Please, fight alongside me.
**[19:47] Student C**
Empress?!
**[19:48] Student L**
Oh no, Lady Earnest!
**[19:54] Sophie**
We're here to make the same request.
**[20:01] Blade**
Why?
**[20:02] Claire**
We're worried about Cu as well.
**[20:06] Yessica**
Please, everyone.
**[20:07] Yessica**
Do it for us.
**[20:08] Clay**
Please!
**[20:09] Kassim**
We're on our knees here!
**[20:14] Student B**
O-Okay, we'll do it!
**[20:16] Student L**
Please stop kneeling!
**[20:18] Group**
We'll do whatever you want!
**[20:43] King**
That's more like it!
**[20:44] King**
This is the kind of hands-on
training I wanted to see!
**[20:48] Siren**
But you know, Gil,
**[20:50] Siren**
will a dragon even acknowledge defeat
if it's taken down by such a large group?
**[20:53] King**
Why, sure.
**[20:54] King**
In the eyes of a dragon, humans are
creatures that work collectively.
**[20:59] King**
Do you consider bees cowardly
for fighting as a swarm?
**[21:04] Siren**
No.
**[21:05] King**
To a dragon, humans are the same.
**[21:08] King**
They wouldn't consider it playing dirty.
**[21:11] King**
That said, it's a shame I won't
be able to watch him fight.
**[21:18] Blade**
I won't mind if you accidentally
breathe fire on that old blowhard.
**[21:24] Blade**
Hey, Cu.
**[21:26] Blade**
I hear that when the humans captured you,
**[21:28] Blade**
they sprung a trap on you, so you
couldn't fight to your heart's content.
**[21:31] Blade**
It must have been frustrating.
**[21:33] Blade**
This time, it'll be fair and square.
**[21:36] Blade**
Go on and see just how
tough we humans can be.
**[21:38] Blade**
Show everyone what your strengths are!
**[21:54] Earnest**
Everyone!
**[21:55] Earnest**
Here we go!
**[21:56] Group**
Yes, ma'am!
