[00:48] Commander
    Send the wounded to the sorcerers!
    Everyone else, fall back!
[00:54] Commander
    The main subjugation unit is here!
[00:57] Commander
    And he's with them!
[01:01] Soldier 3
    The church's secret weapon, a mighty
    veteran of many brushes with death...
[01:13] Soldier 3
    The Calamity Crusher.
[01:23] Soldier 3
    Shagrua Edith Lugrid.
[01:42] Priest 1
    This labyrinth is still growing.
[01:46] Priest 1
    That mad corpse called the dead to it
[01:49] Priest 1
    until they finally spilled over
     into the outside world.
[01:52] Priest 1
    It's the work of that peerless necromancer,
[01:54] Priest 1
    the Corpse God!
[03:13] Commander
    Oh, God.
[03:51] Priest 2
    What mighty sorcery!
[03:53] Priest 2
    Unless we crush him here,
    corpses will consume the world.
[03:57] Priest 2
    Yet...
[03:59] Priest 2
    can even Sir Shagrua, the Calamity Crusher, vanquish such a fiend?
[04:05] Recuria
    Have no fear.
[04:31] Recuria
    Sir Shagrua will not fail.
[04:33] Recuria
    He would never succumb to death.
[04:46] Spirit of the dead (M)
    It's your fault I died.
[04:51] Spirit of the dead (M)
    It's your fault we all died.
[04:54] Spirit of the dead (M)
    Why do you, alone, still live?
[05:06] Spirit of the dead (M) 2
    Die, like we did.
[05:08] Spirit of the dead (M) 3
    Die. Suffer.
[05:09] Spirit of the dead (M) 4
    Squirm. Weep.
[05:10] Spirit of the dead (M) 5
    Cry. Wail.
[05:38] Shagrua
    I can see
[05:39] Shagrua
    all the souls you've sacrificed!
[05:43] Corpse God
    So, you have the Evil Eye.
[05:45] Priest 2
    The Evil Eye?
[05:46] Priest 1
    He was born with the power to see shades.
[05:49] Priest 1
    He can see the ghosts of every
    bandit and monster he's killed—
[05:53] Priest 1
    maybe even the birds and the bugs.
[05:56] Priest 1
    Most bearers of the Evil Eye flee to the
    bosom of the church for their whole lives
[06:01] Priest 1
    or take joy in toying with those ghosts and
    become necromancers like the Corpse God.
[06:27] Priest 1
    Yet Sir Shagrua still chose to fight
    for us on the field of battle.
[06:56] Shagrua
    So that's...
[06:59] Shagrua
    your true form!
[07:02] Shagrua
    To guard that trifling thing, you...
[07:04] Corpse God
    To me, all lives are but playthings.
[07:07] Shagrua
    Do you think you're a god,
    like the Grim Reaper?!
[07:10] Corpse God
    Gods do not play games.
[07:12] Corpse God
    Not like you and I do, with our Evil Eyes.
[07:16] Corpse God
    Do you not delight
[07:19] Corpse God
    in the resentful wails from the
    souls of those you've killed?
[07:27] Shagrua
    I'm not like you!
[07:29] Shagrua
    You should have died long ago, monster!
[07:32] Corpse God
    As you and I strive, indiscriminately,
     to kill one another,
[07:40] Corpse God
    we play at being the Grim Reaper,
     building our piles of corpses.
[07:45] Corpse God
    But "play" is all it is.
[07:48] Shagrua
    What are these sigils?
[07:50] Shagrua
    I don't recognize this spell!
[07:52] Corpse God
    Let us finish this.
[07:55] Corpse God
    My game with you ends here.
[07:58] Shagrua
    Think again!
[08:01] Shagrua
    As long as you exist,
[08:03] Shagrua
    this land
[08:05] Shagrua
    and its children
[08:07] Shagrua
    have no future!
[08:09] Recuria
    I'll support you!
[08:32] Recuria
    Sir Shagrua!
[08:44] Polka
    My memory... is hazy.
[08:48] Polka
    Oh, that's right. That spell then...
[08:53] Polka
    Did it activate?
[09:00] Polka
    Where am I?
[09:08] Polka
    I can move.
[09:11] Polka
    But why do I have these frail arms?
[09:19] Polka
    I have difficulty speaking.
[09:24] Polka
    Both the walls and floor seem strange.
[10:00] Polka
    What is this city?!
[10:13] Takumi
    Whoa, whoa, whoa!
[10:15] Takumi
    Wait! Hold on!
[10:18] Takumi
    Is this for real?!
[10:20] Takumi
    Have I finally lost it?
SIGN    Contacts
[10:27] Takumi
    It's me. Cancel the retrieval.
[10:30] Takumi
    His body's not in the alley anymore.
[10:33] Takumi
    I mean, he's still alive.
[10:35] Retriever Captain
    What do you mean?
    Did the hit fail or something?
[10:38] Takumi
    No, I confirmed the kill.
[10:41] Takumi
    Anyway, just stand by.
[10:44] Takumi
    How the hell
[10:46] Takumi
    is he walking around like
    normal with a slit throat?
[10:50] Polka
    I don't understand it.
[10:53] Polka
    I've never seen such architecture.
[10:56] Polka
    Nor such writing.
[11:00] Polka
    Is that a projection spell?
    But I sense no magic at work.

[11:14] Polka
    Still, just look at these people.
[11:18] Polka
    The children look healthy.
    They smile with delight.
[11:23] Polka
    This must be a peaceful land.
[11:32] Polka
    What will become of that country?
[11:36] Polka
    I don't know if I can ever return,
    but I hope it at least has a future.

[11:58] Polka
    No, I understand parts of it.
[12:02] Polka
    Am I pulling linguistic information
    from this body's brain?
[12:06] Cop 2
    That blood on your shirt's
    not a design, is it?
[12:10] Cop 1
    Are you okay? Can you say your own name?
[12:15] Polka
    Y-Yes.
[12:17] Polka
    So, this is... "Japanese."
[12:21] Polka
    This body's name is... Polka Shinoyama.
[12:26] Cop 2
    Think he's some foreign tourist's kid?
[12:28] Cop 1
    Hey!
[12:29] Cop 1
    You've got a serious neck injury!
[12:31] Cop 1
    It looks like the bleeding has stopped,
[12:33] Cop 1
    but you need immediate medical—
[12:40] Misaki
    Thank goodness! You're all right.
[12:43] Polka
    Who are you?
[12:45] Misaki
    The cops are a pain, huh?
[12:47] Misaki
    First off, let's scram!
[12:48] Polka
    Huh? Wai—
[12:49] Cop 2
    Hey! Stop right there!
[12:53] Iwanome
    Hm?
[12:54] Arase
    Do you think something's up, Iwa-san?
[12:55] Cop 2
    Hold it!
[12:58] Iwanome
    Anything can happen here
    in Shinjuku. Right, Arase?
[13:04] Arase
    You've got a point.
[13:07] Iwanome
    Now, let's head back.
[13:09] Arase
    Sure.
[13:23] Misaki
    Looks like we made a clean getaway!
[13:25] Misaki
    Hey, so, do you remember me?
[13:28] Misaki
    I'm Misaki Sakimiya. That's Ayimikas
    Ikasim if you read it backwards!
[13:33] Polka
    Why would you want to read it backwards?
[13:39] Polka
    Memories of this woman are
    coming to me, little by little.
[13:45] Polka
    Oh, she's smiling.
[13:47] Polka
    She must know this body's owner.
[13:56] Polka
    Um... What are you doing?
[13:58] Misaki
    Giving you a physical.
[14:00] Polka
    What's a physical?
[14:05] Polka
    Whoa!
[14:08] Misaki
    Okay, you're warm,
[14:10] Misaki
    and you've got feet.
[14:11] Misaki
    Don't worry! You're not a ghost!
[14:15] Misaki
    You're alive and kicking! Isn't that great?!
[14:19] Polka
    Um... Thank you?
[14:21] Misaki
    Oh, don't thank me!
[14:25] Polka
    No, I owe y—
[14:26] Misaki
    I mean, I'm about to...
[14:33] Misaki
    kill you again.
[14:37] Polka
    Excuse me?
[14:38] Misaki
    Hey, I jammed this through
    your throat earlier,
[14:43] Misaki
    so how come you're still alive?
[14:48] Polka
    Things couldn't be worse!
[14:52] Polka
    This woman...
[14:55] Polka
    is this body's killer!
[15:01] Takumi
    Polka Shinoyama, huh?
[15:04] Takumi
    Only 16 years old and someone
    paid for a hit on him.
[15:08] Takumi
    What the hell is Misaki's client thinking?
[15:13] Takumi
    Well, you'd better stay dead this time.
[15:16] Takumi
    Otherwise, us retrievers don't get paid.
[15:24] Polka
    It's hopeless. Just running
    away takes all my strength.
[15:27] Polka
    But what is this land?!
    I can hardly sense the spirits!
[15:33] Polka
    There are so few magical
    elements in the air!
[15:35] Polka
    And this body has almost
    no magic to speak of!
[15:38] Polka
    I can't even cure a fresh wound like this!
[15:41] Polka
    What should I do?
[15:44] Polka
    I barely understand why this is happening.
[15:49] Polka
    Yet if I sustain one fatal
    wound, I'll die for—
[15:52] Misaki
    Hi there!
[15:54] Misaki
    Time's up on this game of tag.
[16:04] Misaki
    Oh, wow!
[16:06] Misaki
    No one's ever dodged that well before!
[16:09] Misaki
    I think... I might be a little turned on!
[16:21] Polka
    I can react, but this body can't keep up.
[16:26] Polka
    This is no laughing matter.
[16:28] Polka
    Clues to the world I've longed
    for are right before my eyes!
[16:43] Polka
    Back then, I failed to grasp it.
[16:48] Polka
    After coming this far...
[16:51] Polka
    I can't just let go!
[16:58] Misaki
    Wow.
[17:01] Misaki
    Incredible.
[17:03] Misaki
    I've killed plenty of gangsters and hit men,
[17:07] Misaki
    but I've never felt intimidated before.
[17:10] Misaki
    I might fall for you if I'm not careful!
[17:30] Polka
    What is this place?
[17:31] Misaki
    This building's famous in my line of work.
[17:38] Misaki
    They say the yakuza used it as
    a big-time execution ground.
[17:43] Misaki
    It's just incredible how
    you can dissolve people!
[17:46] Misaki
    Isn't science great?!
[17:48] Misaki
    And guess what!
[17:50] Misaki
    Rumor has it ghosts and
    gangsters haunt this place,
[17:54] Misaki
    so people steer clear of it.
[17:57] Misaki
    The yakuza's one thing, but ghosts? Wow!
[18:00] Misaki
    Isn't the occult great?!
[18:04] Polka
    Yes, I believe you're right.
[18:08] Polka
    Even with this body's eyes,
    I can see them clearly.
[18:14] Polka
    Perhaps those who used this place were
    too careless with the lives of others.
[18:20] Polka
    I see. Since I can still
    see ghosts with this body,
[18:25] Polka
    then, as I thought,
[18:27] Polka
    the Evil Eye is a power of the
    soul, not the eyes and brain.
[18:31] Misaki
    What's that you said?
[18:33] Misaki
    Are you one of those people who
    goes on and on about respecting life?
[18:36] Polka
    I suppose.
[18:38] Polka
    You ought to treat lives
    with greater care as well.
[18:42] Misaki
    You said it!
[18:43] Misaki
    A human life outweighs the Earth!
    Twenty-one grams, right?
[18:48] Misaki
    So this time, I'll get every last gram.
[18:52] Misaki
    I'll be ever so careful...
[18:58] Misaki
    when I kill you!
[19:01] Polka
    Don't handle a life so lightly.
[19:05] Polka
    All lives...
[19:13] Polka
    are my playthings.
[19:22] Polka
    Do not waste them.
[19:30] Takumi
    Huh?
[19:32] Recuria
    Is something wrong?
[19:34] Shagrua
    No, but I don't feel certain
    that my job is done.
[19:38] Recuria
    What do you mean?
[19:41] Recuria
    You've done your title of
    Calamity Crusher proud,
[19:45] Recuria
    Sir Shagrua.
[19:48] Shagrua
    In that last moment,
    when my sword struck him,
[19:51] Shagrua
    I know his spell took effect.
[19:55] Shagrua
    It seemed reminiscent of teleportation magic.
[20:00] Shagrua
    I could see his soul with my Evil Eye,
    but it vanished all too quickly.
[20:07] Shagrua
    Did I truly succeed in slaying
    that necromancer, the Corpse God?
[20:13] Recuria
    The church observation unit
    sent a report earlier.
[20:16] Recuria
    All traces of the Corpse God's soul
    have vanished from this world.
[20:22] Recuria
    You saved the world, Sir Shagrua.
[20:27] Shagrua
    I certainly hope so.
[20:31] Polka
    Ah. The fog has lifted from my mind.
[20:35] Polka
    Magic fills me.
[20:38] Polka
    At last, I can think clearly.
[20:42] Polka
    Misaki-chan, right?
[20:44] Polka
    I don't know why you tried to
    kill this body—Polka Shinoyama.
[20:50] Polka
    But I do owe you my thanks after all.
[20:55] Polka
    Thank you...
[20:57] Polka
    for bringing me to a place
    so full of magical power.
[21:02] Polka
    Here, I may be able to obtain...
[21:06] Polka
    a peaceful life.
[21:09] Polka
    You're right. The time
    for playing tag is over.
[21:13] Polka
    I'm through with running.
[21:15] Polka
    From now on, we'll play at being the
    Grim Reaper—a game of killing.
[22:56] Polka
    Now, let us continue,
[23:01] Polka
    my charming assassin!
[23:06] Polka
    You can't pretend to be asleep forever.
[23:31] Polka
    She's... dead?!
