[00:41] Sophie
    Blade.
[00:45] Sophie
    So here you are.
[00:47] Blade
    Sophie.
[00:49] Sophie
    I've always wanted to go
    all out in a fight against you.
[00:54] Sophie
    Can I win if I don't hold back?
[00:58] Blade
    Why don't we find out?
[01:01] Sophie
    Okay, then.
[01:03] Sophie
    Artificial Great Hero Power.
[01:06] Sophie
    Stop the flow of time.
[01:13] Sophie
    Ten seconds.
[01:18] Sophie
    How?
[01:19] Blade
    You can attack me a hundred times, but if each
    does zero damage, that still makes zero.
[01:29] Blade
    Adamantine Body.
[01:31] Blade
    A technique that momentarily
     increases the toughness of your body.
[01:34] Blade
    Since you stopped time,
    it was active all along.
[01:37] Sophie
    I see.
[01:57] Blade
    I'm an ordinary citizen now,
     so I thought I'd be done with all of this.
[02:11] [SONG] Sign
    I look in your eyes, and I'm met with
[02:15] [SONG] Sign
    A brand-new me and dream
[02:29] [SONG] Sign
    Bravery? Naturally?
[02:32] [SONG] Sign
    Polar opposites within the heart
[02:35] [SONG] Sign
    But, you know, wanting to have both
[02:37] [SONG] Sign
    That's the saga of human nature
[02:40] [SONG] Sign
    Oh no, don't mind me
[02:42] [SONG] Sign
    Go ahead, and so on, you know the rest
[02:45] [SONG] Sign
    A little more? Wait, even harder?!
[02:48] [SONG] Sign
    Going overboard much?
[02:51] [SONG] Sign
    Those selfish emotions deep down
[02:53] [SONG] Sign
    Bringing them to light is
    what friendship's about
[02:55] [SONG] Sign
    Spending adolescence duking it out with pals
[02:58] [SONG] Sign
    I don't wanna lose
[03:02] [SONG] Sign
    We're off to the cutting edge moment
[03:05] [SONG] Sign
    Fight with best friends, and leave no regrets
[03:09] [SONG] Sign
    You should laugh, since
    you look best with a smile
[03:14] [SONG] Sign
    On the ropes?! No matter
    what we face, et cetera
[03:19] [SONG] Sign
    Just sit back and enjoy it
[03:22] [SONG] Sign
    Whatever may come, I'll
    be here to protect you
SIGN    Episode 7
SIGN    The Springtime of Life
    at Rosewood Academy
[03:42] Blade
    Hey, old man!
[03:44] Blade
    I don't know what kind of
    magic or trickery this is,
[03:46] Blade
    but can't we call it quits already?!
[03:49] King
    I believe I explained it all at the start.
[03:52] King
    This is no trickery.
[03:54] King
    This technology known as virtual reality
[03:57] King
    was made using a lost branch
    of magic known as science.
[04:00] King
    Also, and I mentioned this as well,
[04:03] King
    there's no need to use a blunted sword
[04:08] King
    or to stop yourself at the
    last second as you do in reality.
[04:10] King
    That is to say, it's practical
    training like you've never seen it!
[04:12] Cu
    Dragons are the strongest!
[04:15] Mao
    A dragon whelp like you dares to face me?
[04:19] King
    Train as hard as you can in this practicum,
    until there is only one left standing.
[04:25] King
    It's a fight to the death!
[04:28] Blade
    What a sick joke.
[04:30] Blade
    That's fine and all, but can
    you make it easier to distinguish?
[04:33] Blade
    I can't tell the difference!
[04:35] King
    Distinguish between what?
[04:37] Blade
    It's way too realistic!
[04:39] Blade
    The way it is now, even after we go back,
[04:41] Blade
    there's bound to be someone who thinks
    they're still in virtua-whatsit,
[04:43] Blade
    and slaughters their friends!
[04:47] King
    That would not do.
[04:49] King
    Well, how about this, then?
[04:58] King
    Okay, keep on fighting hard from here on out!
[05:02] King
    The last one standing gets the right to use
    virtual reality however they want as a reward!
[05:13] Blade
    Guess I have no choice
    but to end this quickly.
[05:17] Leonard
    My lord dearest!
[05:19] Leonard
    The honor of facing you in combat is mine—
[05:22] Leonard
    Ow!
[05:34] Leonard
    Even as you tear me to pieces...
[05:37] Leonard
    how beautiful you are!
[05:51] Earnest
    Where are you, Blade?
[05:53] Earnest
    Hi-yah!
[06:03] Claire
    Yessica!
[06:07] Kassim
    Give it up already.
[06:10] Kassim
    Ever since our days in the lower classes,
[06:13] Kassim
    you've never beaten us in a fight.
[06:15] Claire
    That may be so, but you
    never know until you try!
[06:19] Yessica
    Yep. The winner is whoever's stronger now!
[06:23] Yessica
    So, Clay...
[06:25] Yessica
    Why do you refuse to lose to us?
[06:28] Group
    Huh?! Well, that's...
[06:35] Kassim
    Shoot—
[06:36] Kassim
    Ono!
[06:37] Clay
    Kassim!
[06:39] Clay
    Uchida!
[06:42] Claire
    Huh? W-We won?
[06:44] Claire
    We really won?
[06:47] Group
    Yay!
[06:55] Earnest
    I've been looking for you, Blade.
[06:58] Earnest
    I never knew that killing
    people was this much fun!
[07:04] Earnest
    I've been so stupid,
     holding back all this time!
[07:10] Blade
    I guess I did promise
[07:13] Blade
    that if you ever went berserk, I would...
[07:16] Blade
    cut you down!
[07:21] Earnest
    Keheheh!
[07:26] Blade
    Endless Flash!
[07:39] Blade
    I'm Blade!
[07:40] Sophie
    We know.
[07:45] King
    It looks like you were the
    last one standing after all.
[07:48] Cu
    Well done, Parent!
[07:50] Yessica
    I couldn't even tell what
    he did there at the end.
[07:54] Claire
    Yeah.
[07:54] Claire
    It was so sudden,
    I didn't even feel any pain.
[07:59] Earnest
    I can't believe it!
[08:01] Earnest
    To think I behaved like that...
[08:03] Blade
    Oh yeah, you were laughing like, "Keheheh!"
[08:05] Earnest
    Shut up!
[08:06] Earnest
    Be quiet,
[08:07] Earnest
    you superorganism!
[08:09] Blade
    No, I'm as ordinary as can be!
[08:13] King
    Wallowing in misery is yet
    another part of youth!
[08:15] King
    Youth is a splendid thing, indeed!
[08:19] King
    This is all thanks to my brilliant idea!
[08:22] Earnest
    Your Majesty.
[08:24] Earnest
    Do you know how much trouble
    we've faced thanks to your brilliant idea?
[08:35] King
    Oh? Going to have fun with it already?
[08:38] King
    It's your right as the victor!
[08:40] King
    Enjoy it to the fullest!
[08:43] King
    Oh? Is that data of ferocious demons?
[08:46] Blade
    Yep.
[08:46] King
    Scattered all throughout the level?
[08:49] Blade
    Yep.
[08:49] King
    Booby-trapped floors?
[08:50] Blade
    Yep.
[08:52] King
    Hold on.
[08:53] King
    Don't you think these settings are
    a little too extreme, even for you?
[08:57] Blade
    It's fine.
[09:00] King
    Huh?
[09:05] Blade
    Can you make him keep on
    respawning, even if he dies?
[09:08] Siren
    Yes, I can.
[09:11] Siren
    How long should I continue his punishment?
[09:13] Blade
    Until nightfall, then.
[09:15] Siren
    Certainly.
[09:17] Blade
    I'm starving! Let's go get lunch!
[09:38] Blade
    Mmm! Delicious!
[09:40] Blade
    Tonkatsu curry is so good!
[09:42] Blade
    What the heck? It never stops!
[09:44] Yessica
    Hey, you two.
[09:46] Yessica
    When are you gonna get over it?
[09:48] Claire
    That's right.
[09:49] Earnest
    Did something happen?
[09:51] Blade
    Those four had a tag match,
     and the girls won.
[09:57] Earnest
    What led to the girls winning?
[09:59] Blade
    Claire's gotten way better.
[10:02] Claire
    Th-That's not true!
[10:04] Blade
    As well as Yessica's do-or-die attack.
[10:06] Yessica
    A woman's gotta be daring!
[10:08] Earnest
    What led to the boys losing, then?
[10:10] Blade
    Probably their complacency
    about their skills.
[10:14] Blade
    They got conceited and
    neglected their training.
[10:18] Earnest
    Not mincing your words, huh?
[10:23] Blade
    It's for their own good.
[10:29] King
    My back! My back! My back!
[10:34] Blade
    When did the king get around to
    building something like this?
[10:38] Dione
    Oh! I've been waiting for you, Great—
[10:41] Dione
    I mean, Blade!
[10:43] Blade
    So, what in the world
    is this "thermae" thing?
[10:45] Sophie
    It says—
[10:46] Eliza
    Allow me to explain!
[10:49] Group
    Who are you?
[10:50] Eliza
    I'm Eliza!
[10:51] Dione
    Well, in any case,
    you'll know when you go inside!
[10:56] Dione
    Welcome to Thermae Rosewood!
[11:03] Blade
    So these are thermae!
[11:06] Blade
    A nice, big bath isn't bad, either!
[11:08] Cu
    This is fun!
[11:10] Cu
    Sophie, let's swim!
[11:12] Sophie
    Is that a command?
[11:15] Dione
    Three hero-level warriors were
    summoned here to dig these baths.
[11:20] Blade
    I can't believe that old fogey.
[11:22] Cu
    Ya-ha!
[11:24] Sophie
    Ya-ha.
[11:27] Blade
    You're not Mao today?
[11:29] Maria
    If I switched with Mao,
    she would take off the swimsuit.
[11:33] Blade
    What's wrong with that?
[11:35] Maria
    What?!
[11:36] Yessica
    Not all the guys here are
    five-year-olds, you know.
[11:48] Blade
    Oh, yeah.
[11:49] Blade
    Where's Earnest?
[11:51] Yessica
    Ah, I bet she didn't come.
[11:53] Yessica
    She seemed against it.
[11:54] Earnest
    I-I'm right here!
[11:57] Earnest
    Mixed bathing?
[11:58] Earnest
    H-How indecent!
[12:00] Earnest
    How shameless!
[12:04] King
    Looks like you're all enjoying the thermae!
[12:07] Earnest
    Your Majesty?!
[12:08] Earnest
    Please cover yourself!
[12:10] King
    What are you saying?
[12:11] King
    Thermae are meant to be entered in the nude!
[12:14] Earnest
    We need swimsuits, since it's mixed bathing!
[12:19] Siren
    Gil.
[12:19] King
    I guess I have to accept that.
[12:21] King
    I can accept swimsuits...
[12:24] King
    However!
[12:25] King
    Don't wear a towel in the bath!
[12:27] Earnest
    What?!
[12:28] King
    It's a part of our kingdom's constitution!
[12:31] King
    Thou shalt not wear towels in the bath!
[12:34] Earnest
    Since when?!
[12:35] Earnest
    Are you an idiot?!
[12:36] King
    Since three seconds ago!
[12:39] Siren
    Gil. There's nothing of the
    sort in our constitution...
[12:42] King
    I want to see naked girls!
[12:45] King
    I'd do anything to see them naked!
[12:47] King
    But if that's not possible...
[12:49] King
    I at least want to see them in swimsuits!
[12:51] King
    Don't you all agree?
[12:54] Group
    We do!
[12:57] King
    That's the spirit!
[12:58] Earnest
    Hey!
[12:59] Earnest
    You guys!
[13:00] Yessica
    C'mon, Anna, can't you just take it off?
[13:03] Yessica
    Besides, hasn't the value of seeing
    you naked plummeted already?
[13:07] Earnest
    Plummeted?!
[13:09] Yessica
    I mean, during the simurgh incident,
    you were running around town buck naked!
[13:14] Earnest
    That was because I was fighting!
[13:16] Yessica
    I have no clue why you're still embarrassed.
[13:19] Claire
    I wouldn't want to take off my swimsuit,
[13:21] Claire
    but what's wrong with taking off the towel?
[13:24] Claire
    Everyone else already has.
[13:26] Leonard
    My lord!
[13:26] Mob B
    Yeah, yeah!
[13:28] Mob B
    Claire's totally right!
[13:28] Mob E
    Why does the Empress get special treatment?!
[13:30] Group
    Take it off! Take it off!
[13:31] Earnest
    Wait...
[13:32] Earnest
    I'm not taking it off!
[13:32] Group
    Strip her! Strip her!
[13:35] King
    Take it off!
[13:36] King
    Just take it all off!
[13:37] King
    Lay bare your youthful, nude form!
[13:39] King
    If you won't take it off,
    I'll amend the constitution!
[13:41] King
    From now on, wearing any clothes
    in this kingdom will be—
[13:47] King
    Hello! Splash!
[13:49] Siren
    Everyone, I'm terribly sorry about this.
[13:56] Earnest
    Sheesh! I just have to take it off, right?
[13:58] Earnest
    I can take this towel off just fine!
[14:04] Earnest
    Don't stare at me too much.
[14:07] Blade
    Sure, I won't look.
[14:09] Claire
    U-Um...
[14:11] Claire
    Do you have a minute?
[14:14] Claire
    What happened earlier today...
[14:16] Claire
    Y-You shouldn't worry about it so much.
[14:19] Claire
    That was just a fluke.
[14:21] Claire
    I'm sure of it, I think...
[14:23] Clay
    No. We were just thinking about it again now.
[14:26] Kassim
    It was all because of our lack of skills...
[14:29] Claire
    No way!
[14:31] Claire
    You two really are way stronger than us!
[14:35] Earnest
    Hey, Blade...
[14:36] Blade
    What?
[14:37] Earnest
    You know how people talk about
    "rubbing salt in the wound"?
[14:41] Blade
    Yeah.
[14:42] Earnest
    I think I now truly understand what it means.
[14:46] Blade
    Me, too.
[14:47] Claire
    Um, so...
[14:50] Claire
    I'm sorry for winning!
[14:56] Yessica
    You made them cry.
[14:57] Maria
    She sure did.
[14:59] Sophie
    Yes, she did.
[15:00] Cu
    Clay and Kassim are hopeless!
[15:03] Earnest
    Aw, man.
[15:07] Blade
    Hey, cheer up already!
[15:09] Blade
    All you did was lose once!
[15:11] Clay
    You wouldn't understand.
[15:14] Kassim
    You've never lost to a girl!
[15:15] Kassim
    More like, you don't lose to anyone.
[15:18] Kassim
    Being a superorganism and all.
[15:19] Blade
    I don't let it get to me when I lose.
[15:24] Clay
    Well, I can't stand it!
[15:26] Clay
    I wouldn't mind if it was anyone else.
[15:28] Clay
    But I don't want to lose against Yessica!
[15:31] Blade
    Yessica? Why her?
[15:32] Clay
    Isn't it obvious?!
[15:34] Clay
    I... l-like Yessica!
[15:43] Blade
    I like Yessica, too.
[15:45] Clay
    What?!
[15:46] Kassim
    I thought you liked Earnest, or Sophie!
[15:48] Blade
    I like them, too!
[15:50] Blade
    As well as Cu and Maria.
[15:52] Blade
    I like you and everyone else, too.
[15:54] Group
    Eh?!
[15:55] Clay
    Oh, I see. That kind of like.
[15:57] Kassim
    That's not what we're talking about here.
[16:00] Blade
    How's it different?
[16:01] Kassim
    See here!
[16:02] Kassim
    I'm sure you've figured
    it out, but I like Claire!
[16:07] Kassim
    Claire... she's so great.
[16:10] Kassim
    She comes off as just your typical girl...
[16:14] Kassim
    but she can be ruthless sometimes,
    which is good in its own way!
[16:18] Blade
    I see. I don't get it.
[16:19] Clay
    Yessica, too!
[16:20] Clay
    She seems so free and uninhibited,
[16:23] Clay
    and I bet she's got tons of experience.
[16:25] Blade
    I see. I really don't get it.
[16:27] Clay
    But despite all that,
    she's really kind and caring!
[16:31] Kassim
    Claire as well!
[16:32] Blade
    I do get that part.
[16:35] Cu
    So that's what was troubling you?
[16:38] Cu
    The answer is simple!
[16:40] Cu
    You two just need to get stronger!
[16:43] Group
    Huh?
[16:44] Cu
    Listen up!
[16:45] Cu
    Females are attracted to strong males!
[16:47] Cu
    Get stronger, and they'll be all over you!
[16:49] Cu
    Head over heels for you!
[16:51] Blade
    Cu, be a little more serious here—
[16:53] Kassim
    Sh-She's right!
[16:55] Clay
    Yeah!
[16:56] Clay
    But how are we supposed to get stronger?
[16:59] Cu
    That's simple as well!
[17:01] Cu
    You just need special training from Parent!
[17:04] Group
    Ah! That's right!
[17:11] Earnest
    Mmm, so tasty!
[17:13] Yessica
    This cake is good, right?
[17:15] Yessica
    And chock-full of calories!
[17:16] Earnest
    Oh, no!
[17:18] Earnest
    No, no, no!
[17:19] Claire
    Um, Anna...
[17:20] Claire
    We're having a girls'
    night tonight because...
[17:20] Earnest
    Look, it's so delicious!
[17:22] Maria
    Is it about Clay and Kassim?
[17:22] Earnest
    I can't imagine life without sweets anymore!
[17:26] Yessica
    It's really been a pain.
[17:28] Yessica
    They've been running away from us ever since.
[17:31] Earnest
    I don't think it's a big deal
    to lose to someone once.
[17:34] Yessica
    Seriously, getting bummed
    out from just that...
[17:37] Yessica
    Why are boys so fragile?
[17:40] Claire
    Oh, what if we lost to them on purpose?
[17:43] Sophie
    You really shouldn't do that.
[17:45] Earnest
    They won't be able to recover from that.
[17:47] Claire
    Huh? That's no good?
[17:49] Claire
    What should we do, then?
[17:50] Cu
    The answer is simple!
[17:53] Cu
    Males are attracted to strong females!
[17:56] Cu
    Get stronger, and they'll be all over you!
[17:58] Cu
    Head over heels for you!
[18:01] Yessica
    Wait, we're not trying
    to make them fall for us.
[18:05] Claire
    That's right. We don't see them that way.
[18:08] Earnest
    Huh? You don't?
[18:10] Claire
    Hey, Yessica...
[18:11] Claire
    Why don't we skip practice,
    and let those two get stronger than us?
[18:16] Earnest
    No! Absolutely not!
[18:19] Earnest
    Hey, are you two really okay
    with things as they are?
[18:23] Yessica
    Well, no, but...
[18:25] Claire
    Mm-hmm...
[18:26] Earnest
    How about this, then?
[18:30] Blade
    1,141! 1,142! 1,143!
[18:36] Blade
    These are the lightest we have!
[18:40] Blade
    Work those core muscles!
[18:43] Blade
    That's amazing.
[19:00] Clay
    It's finally time.
[19:01] Blade
    Well, no matter the outcome,
[19:03] Blade
    I can at least confirm that
    you haven't neglected your training!
[19:08] Kassim
    If we win this battle...
[19:11] Clay
    Yeah!
[19:12] Clay
    We'll confess to them!
[19:14] Kassim
    Confess!
[19:31] Earnest
    No hard feelings, no matter who wins.
[19:34] Blade
    Are you ready?
[19:39] Blade
    Okay!
[19:42] Blade
    Begin!
[19:42] Yessica
    Claire! Here we go!
[19:44] Claire
    Yeah!
[19:46] Kassim
    Coming at us?
[19:47] Clay
    No, you don't!
[19:56] Kassim
    Take this!
[20:04] Earnest
    Blade, did you teach them how
    to use their fighting spirit?
[20:08] Blade
    I just made them realize they've been
    subconsciously using fighting spirit all along.
[20:12] Blade
    Also...
[20:15] Blade
    Kassim is using wind spiritual energy.
[20:17] Earnest
    Hmm...
[20:19] Clay
    My chance!
[20:22] Kassim
    Fire spiritual energy?!
[20:24] Blade
    Did you teach her that?
[20:26] Earnest
    Just the fire part.
[20:30] Kassim
    Guh!
[20:31] Kassim
    Fighting spirit?!
[20:32] Claire
    There!
[20:36] Kassim
    So it ends here...
[20:38] Yessica
    Next, it's...
[20:42] Clay
    Huh?
[20:43] Yessica
    My turn!
[20:52] Yessica
    I'm sorry.
[21:04] Kassim
    Well, dang.
[21:06] Clay
    You got us good.
[21:08] Kassim
    Thanks for not going easy on us.
[21:11] Claire
    Yeah.
[21:13] Clay
    We're going to get even stronger.
[21:16] Yessica
    You go do that.
[21:17] Yessica
    Fighting's not even our specialty, you know.
[21:22] Cassim
    Hey...
[21:23] Cassim
    Did Sophie and Maria teach you how to
    use ice and lightning spiritual energy?
[21:28] Yessica
    You got it.
[21:28] Claire
    The other girls helped us out as well.
[21:31] Clay
    Seriously?
[21:32] Clay
    That's not fair, all of you ganging up on us.
[21:35] Earnest
    Don't give me that!
[21:38] Earnest
    How can you call it unfair,
    being taught by the superorganism?!
[21:42] Blade
    Why's she angry?
[21:43] Earnest
    And there's something
    I need to say to you two!
[21:46] Group
    Huh?
[21:48] Earnest
    Is it wrong to fall in love with someone
    unless you're stronger than them?
[21:50] Earnest
    Or confess to them?!
[21:51] Earnest
    You've gotta be kidding!
[21:53] Earnest
    That's just asking for way too much!

    Standing ready to strike
[23:01] [SONG] Sign
    The shadow lurking beneath the light
[23:04] [SONG] Sign
