[00:12] ---
    Flooding into the wound in
    my heart comes pain in the dark
[00:23] ---
    That feeling of being connected
    as we came together melts away
[00:33] ---
    In the delirium of my unrelenting fever,
    I can't even hear the final voice
[00:44] ---
    Don't cry! When I held you tight,
    you were trembling
[00:55] ---
    Gently, hold my raised hand
[01:03] ---
    Surely, I've been searching for
    the everlasting miracle that is you
[01:14] ---
    Firmly, lay your hand upon me
[01:24] ---
    Ever and never end
[01:28] ---
    You set me free so far away
[01:43] ---
    This story takes place 1,000 years ago.
[01:47] ---
    The lord who ruled this land at that time
    had a beautiful daughter named Sandra.
[01:54] ---
    At the age of 16, her sublime beauty
    was often talked about by many people,
[02:00] ---
    and men who wished to marry
    her came in great swarms from
[02:04] ---
    distant lands such as
    Greece and the Orient,
[02:08] ---
    crossing oceans and mountains.
[02:11] ---
    However, no matter how good the marriage
    offer was, the princess never said yes.
[02:18] ---
    The men still made approaches
    to her so she said to them...
[02:22] ---
    I will be the wife of the
    strongest man in this world.
[02:27] ---
    Then, to test their strength, she told
    them to fight against the sword fighter,
[02:32] ---
    Vittorio, who worked for her family.
[02:40] ---
    Vittorio fought... He fought over and over
[02:43] ---
    against men from all over the world who had
    confidence in their martial arts skills,
[02:47] ---
    yet he never lost even once.
[02:50] ---
    The fighting went on even after the
    princess passed away from sickness,
[02:54] ---
    and it is said that it still goes
    on even now, 1,000 years later...
[03:17] ---
    As Princess Sandra orders,
    I will fight you.
[03:25] ---
    Come!
[03:31] ---
    Millennium Swordsman
[03:37] ---
    Kanda went missing?!
[03:40] ---
    If I remember correctly,
    he was heading to Rome...
[03:43] ---
    That's right. He went to collect the
    Innocence found in ruins outside Rome,
[03:49] ---
    but we haven't been able
    to get in touch with him,
[03:51] ---
    or the Finder who went
    with, him for a week.
[03:55] ---
    Since there're many Akuma around the
    fighting arena where they disappeared,
[03:59] ---
    only Exorcists can enter that area.
[04:03] ---
    So I've decided to have
    you go there, Allen-kun.
[04:13] ---
    Okay, we can leave...
[04:16] ---
    What're you doing here?
[04:18] ---
    Can you move over?
[04:20] ---
    What? Are you coming, too?
[04:26] ---
    Well then, we can leave now.
[04:34] ---
    She seems kinda angry...
[04:41] ---
    I wonder if Komui-san
    forced her to go with me...
[04:44] ---
    But knowing how he is,
[04:46] ---
    it's hard to think that
    he'd force her to go...
[04:51] ---
    Why else?! It's because you're my friend!
[05:05] ---
    Uhm... Come to think of it, we haven't
    had a chance to talk since then, so...
[05:13] ---
    About that time... I'm sorry!
[05:24] ---
    Don't raise your face up yet.
    I still won't forgive you.
[05:27] ---
    Ah... yes...
[05:29] ---
    You're selfish. You're the only
    one who can see Akuma's souls,
[05:34] ---
    so you carry everything on your shoulders
    and fight by sacrificing yourself...
[05:40] ---
    Does being friends mean anything to you?!
[05:43] ---
    Don't insult me! Why can't
    we fight together?!
[05:48] ---
    I hate... your left eye... I hate it...
[05:55] ---
    I'm sorry...
[06:01] ---
    Lenalee...
[06:04] ---
    Thanks for saving me...
[06:06] ---
    I'll save you many more times!
[06:13] ---
    I wonder if this means she forgave me...
[06:16] ---
    What're you doing?! Hurry up and get on!
[06:19] ---
    If we miss this one, the next train
    going to Rome won't be until tomorrow!
[06:22] ---
    Ah, okay!
[06:31] ---
    A Roman sword fighter who's
    continued to live for 1,000 years?
[06:35] ---
    See? Doesn't it sound similar to
    Lala who kept singing for 500 years?
[06:40] ---
    Then this sword fighter, too, is...
[06:42] ---
    We can't say that with certainty yet,
[06:45] ---
    since we don't know if Innocence can
    let a human live for 1,000 years, either...
[06:51] ---
    There's also a possibility that
    he is an Accommodator, right?
[06:54] ---
    We don't know about it right now, either.
[06:57] ---
    If he really exists, we can call that
    in itself a mysterious phenomenon...
[07:05] ---
    This info doc says that
    Akuma started appearing
[07:10] ---
    around the fighting arena
    ruins about a month ago.
[07:14] ---
    But no Akuma who went
    inside the arena came back out.
[07:19] ---
    That might be because they were defeated
    by the sword fighter with Innocence...
[07:24] ---
    Probably, because my brother
    considered that possibility too,
[07:27] ---
    in order to confirm that...
[07:29] ---
    he sent Kanda in...
[07:37] ---
    Lie low.
[07:39] ---
    Please be careful.
[07:50] ---
    Let's go, Mugen!
[07:51] ---
    Innocence... activate!
[08:18] ---
    Move! You're in my way!
[08:21] ---
    Don't just stand around
    staring into space, kid!
[08:29] ---
    Excuse me...
[08:31] ---
    If you're worried about the payment,
    I'll pay you plenty on my way back.
[08:34] ---
    Who are they? Soldiers from somewhere?
[08:37] ---
    I wonder if they're starting
    a war or something...
[08:40] ---
    What'd you say?! Come over here!
    Fine by me!
[08:44] ---
    Say that again!
[08:45] ---
    Please stop! If you get
    hurt over a trivial thing...
[08:50] ---
    If they wanna fight, it'd be nice if they
    both kill each other at the same time.
[08:56] ---
    We're bounty hunters.
[08:58] ---
    We've been gathered to return the
    Sardini family's kidnapped daughter.
[09:03] ---
    Bounty hunters?
[09:04] ---
    Return their daughter?
[09:07] ---
    Haven't you heard?
    Their 16-year-old daughter Claudia
[09:12] ---
    was abducted from the
    Sardini residence three days ago.
[09:15] ---
    The man who abducted her
    identified himself as Vittorio.
[09:19] ---
    Vittorio?!
[09:20] ---
    That sword fighter who's
    been living for 1,000 years?!
[09:27] ---
    Viscount Paletti will give
    instructions at the Sardini residence!
[09:32] ---
    Those who want to collect the
    reward money should come immediately!
[09:38] ---
    I wonder... who Paletti is...
[09:40] ---
    I don't know...
[10:06] ---
    Oh, really?
[10:08] ---
    Geez... We didn't come here for a picnic.
[10:12] ---
    You know, they say something
    or other on an empty stomach.
[10:14] ---
    Here, why don't you have some, young lady?
[10:17] ---
    Ah... No, thank you.
[10:22] ---
    Brave ones, I want you to stop
    eating for a moment and listen to me.
[10:28] ---
    As you probably know, Miss Claudia,
    the daughter of the Sardini family,
[10:33] ---
    was abducted by a thug named Vittorio.
[10:37] ---
    Mr. Sardini here is quite troubled.
[10:41] ---
    As an heir of the honored Paletti Family,
    I will promise, on our family's name,
[10:48] ---
    that the person who gets back
    my dear fiancée Claudia Sardini
[10:52] ---
    from that detestable thug will be given one tenth...
[10:53] ---
    His fiancée?
[10:54] ---
    Getting engaged to such
[10:55] ---
    an older man at the age of 16...
[10:58] ---
    of the Sardini family's assets!
[11:00] ---
    What're you doing, son-in-law,
[11:03] ---
    suddenly saying such a thing
    without asking me beforehand?
[11:06] ---
    This is unexpected,
[11:07] ---
    to see you have a problem with offering
    just one tenth of your assets when you,
[11:10] ---
    as a father, should naturally
    instruct people to rescue your daughter
[11:13] ---
    even at the cost of all your assets.
[11:16] ---
    Since it's the Sardini family's assets,
    even one tenth is an incredible amount!
[11:20] ---
    We'll definitely find her!
[11:22] ---
    We'll be super rich!
[11:32] ---
    Claudia! I never knew that you
    were such an unfilial daughter!
[11:38] ---
    To hell with Vittorio! How absurd!
[11:43] ---
    Hmm...? Hmm?! Shoo! Shoo!
[11:45] ---
    Please don't worry. It won't do any harm.
[11:51] ---
    Excuse us for coming in
    from a place like this...
[11:53] ---
    We're not anyone suspicious.
    We're from the Black Order.
[11:58] ---
    What?! The Black Order? I've heard of it...
[12:08] ---
    It was a month ago that my daughter
[12:10] ---
    started saying that a sword fighter
    from the medieval period had appeared...
[12:15] ---
    I first ignored what she said, thinking
    that she must've had a dream about it.
[12:19] ---
    However, she kept saying that he
    appeared at night to report to her...
[12:25] ---
    Report?
[12:27] ---
    The world's strongest man
    still hasn't appeared yet.
[12:31] ---
    I yelled at her, telling her to
    stop spouting such nonsense...
[12:36] ---
    but she insisted that she
    was telling the truth.
[12:39] ---
    And three days ago, of all days...
[12:41] ---
    the day her engagement with
    Viscount Paletti was finalized...
[12:46] ---
    Seriously, what is she thinking?!
[12:49] ---
    Exactly...
[12:50] ---
    What is Miss Claudia really thinking?
[12:54] ---
    Son-in-law!
[12:59] ---
    Humph! Once she gets
    married to me, the Sardini family,
[13:03] ---
    an upstart from a mere merchant,
    will become related to nobles
[13:07] ---
    and will finally be able to realize their
    dream and join upper-class society.
[13:11] ---
    When she had the greatest
    opportunity to show filial piety, she...
[13:14] ---
    Son-in-law... I still can't agree!
[13:18] ---
    Claudia ran away from home!
[13:21] ---
    Or she was tricked by an idiot
    who used the name of Vittorio!
[13:25] ---
    We didn't have to take the
    trouble to gather bounty hunters
[13:27] ---
    by offering reward money.
    We could've asked the police to...
[13:30] ---
    Don't worry. I don't intend
    to waste the money, either.
[13:35] ---
    There're many incidents where
    a lucky person who won the lottery
[13:38] ---
    gets attacked by someone
    envious of them, right?
[13:45] ---
    You're one of the upstarts.
[13:47] ---
    Haven't you experienced
    what I'm talking about?
[13:54] ---
    Who're those people glaring at us angrily?
[13:58] ---
    Ah... They said they're
    from the Black Order.
[14:01] ---
    Did you ask them to come?
[14:03] ---
    Ah... no...
[14:05] ---
    I see... If people from the
    famous Black Order can help us,
[14:11] ---
    we don't need bounty hunters.
[14:13] ---
    We definitely want...
[14:14] ---
    We refuse.
[14:16] ---
    If you want Claudia-san to come back,
    why don't you look for her on your own?
[14:20] ---
    Money, status, assets!
[14:23] ---
    Which do you two treasure more,
    those things or her?!
[14:27] ---
    Having a parent like you... and a fiancé
    like you is what caused her to run away!
[14:33] ---
    Allen-kun, let's go.
[14:44] ---
    What?
[14:46] ---
    Nothing...
[14:47] ---
    After all, we couldn't
    find any clues on Kanda...
[14:52] ---
    On Vittorio, either...
[14:54] ---
    Yeah...
[15:00] ---
    Anyway, let's start again tomorrow morning.
[15:04] ---
    Good night.
[15:06] ---
    Hey, do you think Claudia-san
    really ran away from home?
[15:10] ---
    What?
[15:11] ---
    It was a month ago that she started
    saying that Vittorio appeared, right?
[15:19] ---
    Why do you think she
    started talking about Vittorio?
[15:23] ---
    Because she wanted to run
    away from her awful father, right?
[15:26] ---
    That might be the case,
    but what if he actually did appear?
[15:31] ---
    What for?
[15:32] ---
    Maybe the ghost fell in love
    with a human, or something...
[15:36] ---
    He had never seen her before.
[15:38] ---
    It was just a hypothetical...
[15:42] ---
    Good night.
[16:08] ---
    I'll be the first!
[16:09] ---
    Where is he?!
[16:09] ---
    I'll find her! I'll definitely find her!
[16:14] ---
    This is bad! Let's hurry!
[16:18] ---
    Where are you, Vittorio! Come out!
[16:20] ---
    Vittorio! Come out!
[16:21] ---
    I'll take you down!
[16:21] ---
    Give the lady back!
[16:35] ---
    Where's the enemy?!
[16:36] ---
    I'll kill them!
[16:46] ---
    Everyone! This way! Hurry!
[16:48] ---
    I don't need the money any more!
[17:06] ---
    Wait! Who cares about that guy?!
    Protect me!
[17:11] ---
    They all care only about themselves!
[17:16] ---
    Even so, I'll protect them...
[17:19] ---
    as an Exorcist!
[17:24] ---
    These're instructions
    from Viscount Paletti!
[17:27] ---
    The one who defeats Vittorio,
    who's hiding inside,
[17:30] ---
    and rescues Claudia will be given
    one fifth of the Sardini family's assets.
[17:35] ---
    One fifth?
[17:36] ---
    It's not one tenth?
[17:38] ---
    It's twice the promised amount.
[17:39] ---
    I won't do it. There're monsters in there!
[17:43] ---
    Well, it'll be okay. We can just leave
    them to those brats and kill Vittorio.
[17:47] ---
    This is a rare opportunity that...
[17:47] ---
    He's probably a petty thief after all.
[17:49] ---
    Finally presented itself to a poor noble....
[17:49] ---
    He won't be a big deal.
[17:52] ---
    I'll get Claudia back without fail....
[17:52] ---
    I'm going back there.
[17:54] ---
    Yeah!
[17:59] ---
    Okay! Turn it!
[18:02] ---
    Fire!
[18:19] ---
    That's...
[18:21] ---
    My name is Vittorio. I'm a sword
    fighter serving the house of Tivoli.
[18:26] ---
    This is the guy! There's no mistake!
[18:28] ---
    As Princess Sandra orders,
    I will fight you.
[18:32] ---
    Fire!
[18:52] ---
    You're not strong enough.
[18:53] ---
    What? Kanda!
[18:55] ---
    He's my prey. Don't intervene.
[19:02] ---
    Sorry to have kept you waiting.
[19:04] ---
    I'll fight you.
[19:06] ---
    Lenalee-san!
[19:08] ---
    Pedro-san! So you're okay!
[19:10] ---
    Yes, somehow...
[19:12] ---
    Are you all right?
[19:13] ---
    More importantly, that's Innocence!
[19:17] ---
    That sword is indeed the source
    of the mysterious phenomenon
[19:21] ---
    that has kept Vittorio
    alive for 1,000 years.
[19:25] ---
    Those two continued
    fighting for three days.
[19:29] ---
    However, soon Akuma started
    appearing and the situation became chaotic.
[19:33] ---
    Vittorio disappeared before we knew,
[19:36] ---
    and Kanda-san slept the past two days
    due to the exhaustion from the fight.
[19:42] ---
    Neither of them are using
    the power of Innocence...
[19:45] ---
    It's probably due to their
    pride as swordsmen.
[19:48] ---
    They stopped using it on
    the second day of the fight.
[19:52] ---
    I can't fight without
    my Anti-Akuma Weapon...
[19:56] ---
    That's why Kanda doesn't
    want me to intervene...
[20:39] ---
    His injuries are disappearing...
[20:42] ---
    The Innocence's power?
[20:56] ---
    No!
[20:58] ---
    Kanda!
[21:06] ---
    I'll get it back with my own hands
[21:10] ---
    I can see the light of tomorrow
[21:25] ---
    It seems like you're tired
    of playing by yourself
[21:33] ---
    Is the voice in your heart reaching you?
[21:41] ---
    What you hear is the answer
[21:49] ---
    This irrational feeling is
    one definite form of pride
[21:57] ---
    As if in a movie I saw long ago,
    I can see my future self
[22:08] ---
    I race forth because I want
    to become ever stronger
[22:15] ---
    The pride cast aside to
    bury that which was lost
[22:23] ---
    I'll get it back with my own hands
[22:27] ---
    I can see the pride of tomorrow
[22:36] ---
    Preview
[22:37] ---
    In order to finish off the wounded Kanda,
    Vittorio swings up his large sword.
[22:42] ---
    One of the reasons why he
    kept fighting was a woman...
[22:48] ---
    On the next episode of D.Gray-man!
[22:50] ---
    "Pride of the Swordsman."
[22:52] ---
    Bring salvation to this poor Akuma's soul!
[22:54] ---
