[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
[01:42] ---
    Thanks for waiting!
[01:51] ---
    What is it?
[01:53] ---
    You don't even know about soba noodles?
[01:56] ---
    Soba?
[01:58] ---
    I'd like to eat soba noodles, too.
[02:05] ---
    What?
[02:06] ---
    Wh-What happened?!
[02:09] ---
    That silly Kro-chan ate
    soba noodles all wrong.
[02:12] ---
    He thought the condiments were a salad,
[02:14] ---
    the dipping sauce was soup
[02:15] ---
    and the noodles were pasta.
[02:17] ---
    So he ate them all separately.
[02:19] ---
    He even ate the wasabi
    horseradish in one gulp.
[02:22] ---
    I-I've never had food this bad before.
[02:28] ---
    You should've taught him how to eat it.
[02:31] ---
    I don't have time to babysit a newbie.
[02:36] ---
    You're done eating already?
    Where're you rushing off to?
[02:40] ---
    I'm heading to Denmark on a new assignment.
[02:42] ---
    I see! You sure are busy, Yu.
[02:44] ---
    I seem to recall telling you
    repeatedly not to address me that way.
[02:48] ---
    Now, now...
[02:50] ---
    Speaking of which, Allen, Komui said
    earlier that he wanted to see you too.
[02:54] ---
    What? I wonder if I'm getting
    a new assignment as well...
[03:01] ---
    The General's Chains
[03:04] ---
    Delivering something? Not an assignment?
[03:07] ---
    Yeah... Sorry to ask you
    this when you just got back,
[03:10] ---
    but I want you to deliver this to
    General Yeegar in the Netherlands.
[03:15] ---
    Yes...
[03:17] ---
    Although he's the oldest
    among the five Generals,
[03:20] ---
    he's a brave man who's always
    been fighting in the front lines.
[03:24] ---
    Ah... uhm... Can I ask you one question?
[03:28] ---
    He isn't a weird person,
    like my Master, is he?
[03:32] ---
    Hmmm... I don't know...
[03:34] ---
    Well, he's very strict about manners,
    so be very careful not to make mistakes.
[03:49] ---
    I don't feel like going...
    Why do I have to...?
[03:54] ---
    Why did you send Allen Walker
    to General Yeegar?
[04:00] ---
    The General was the one
    who wanted to see him.
[04:03] ---
    He said that he really wanted
    to see the boy prophesied
[04:07] ---
    as the "Destroyer of Time" by Hevlaska.
[04:08] ---
    I see... I guess that means the General
    is also concerned about his future, huh?
[04:14] ---
    Yes... and about his left eye as well...
[04:20] ---
    He's worried that if the
    Earl gets annoyed by it,
[04:23] ---
    a great calamity may befall Allen-kun.
[04:35] ---
    It's gotten darker...
[04:38] ---
    It looks like an Akuma's...
[04:41] ---
    I used to think that Allen's eye was
    nice to have since it's convenient.
[04:46] ---
    But when I actually saw
    an Akuma's soul in person,
[04:50] ---
    I honestly thought that I wouldn't want it.
[04:52] ---
    It's really tough...
[04:55] ---
    It made me feel sick, so I
    didn't feel like eating for a while.
[05:04] ---
    The world he's seeing...
[05:07] ---
    is hell...
[05:18] ---
    If I'm not mistaken, someone should
    come to pick me up at this station...
[05:23] ---
    You must be Allen Walker-san.
[05:25] ---
    Ah, yes!
[05:26] ---
    I'm Thierry. I'm a Finder
    in the Yeegar Unit.
[05:31] ---
    H-Hi! I'm Allen Walker.
[05:34] ---
    Thanks for coming all
    the way to pick me up.
[05:37] ---
    Chief Komui at Headquarters asked
    me to deliver this to General Yeegar.
[05:42] ---
    I'm sorry, but General
    Yeegar is no longer here.
[05:46] ---
    What?
[05:48] ---
    The General headed to Belgium when
    he heard Innocence was discovered there.
[05:53] ---
    Belgium? Well...
[05:55] ---
    Yes, it's the neighboring country.
[06:04] ---
    The train isn't coming...
[06:06] ---
    Yeah, not many trains come to this area.
[06:09] ---
    But if we wait another two hours...
[06:13] ---
    Uhm... I heard from Komui-san...
    that General Yeegar is a strict person.
[06:20] ---
    Is that true?
[06:23] ---
    Well, it's true that there're times
    he's strict about manners and language,
[06:27] ---
    but I think he's basically a kind person.
[06:30] ---
    What?! A kind person?! A General is?!
[06:34] ---
    What's the matter all of a sudden?
[06:37] ---
    Sorry... but I just can't connect
    the words "General" and "kind person"
[06:41] ---
    in my mind no matter how hard I try...
[06:44] ---
    I hate that place!
[06:47] ---
    General Yeegar is really a kind person.
[06:50] ---
    He knows a wide variety of things...
    and teaches them to us as well...
[06:55] ---
    For example, do you know
    the name of this butterfly?
[06:59] ---
    No...
[07:00] ---
    It's called Nymphalidae. It's a very
    common butterfly in Europe and Asia.
[07:07] ---
    General Yeegar taught you that as well?
[07:09] ---
    Yes, he did...
[07:12] ---
    How should I put it...
    I guess he's like a schoolteacher...
[07:17] ---
    I heard that he was originally a teacher,
    so it may be just natural, though...
[07:25] ---
    General Yeegar sounds like
    a respectable person.
[07:36] ---
    Innocence was found in this town?!
[07:38] ---
    Yes, there should be no mistake
    about it having been discovered, but...
[07:43] ---
    I wonder where General Yeegar is...
[07:46] ---
    Even if we wanna ask someone,
    there's no one around here.
[07:53] ---
    Thierry-san, let's contact General Yeegar.
[07:56] ---
    What?
[07:57] ---
    If he's nearby, the wireless Golem
    should get through. Hurry up!
[08:01] ---
    Ah, well, but... the
    General doesn't have it.
[08:05] ---
    What?
[08:07] ---
    His wireless Golem got old and broken...
[08:10] ---
    Didn't you bring a new one for him?
[08:18] ---
    Is there any other way to contact him?
[08:19] ---
    Nothing from this end,
[08:21] ---
    though if he contacted headquarters,
[08:24] ---
    he may have let them know at
    least his approximate whereabouts.
[08:28] ---
    We don't have time to contact headquarters.
[08:31] ---
    Let's look for him. He may still be nearby.
[08:34] ---
    What on earth is going on?
    Why're you so worked up?
[08:37] ---
    How the townspeople are acting...
[08:40] ---
    There's no mistake! It's Akuma.
[08:44] ---
    The scent of the discovered Innocence
    has led Akuma to come here!
[08:48] ---
    What?!
[08:56] ---
    Persistent! Persistent! Persistent!
[09:12] ---
    You really are persistent!
[09:21] ---
    You have nowhere to escape.
[09:23] ---
    Give me back the Innocence that
    you killed townspeople to steal.
[09:30] ---
    I wonder who actually has
    nowhere to escape... Here goes!
[09:37] ---
    Go right ahead and take it if you can!
[09:39] ---
    I guess he's not the type
    that'll listen to reason after all...
[09:43] ---
    Then my only choice is to bring him down.
[09:45] ---
    My, my... What an energetic grandpa!
[09:48] ---
    It won't be my fault if you regret.
[09:50] ---
    Get him!
[09:55] ---
    General Yeegar!
[10:08] ---
    Amazing...
[10:10] ---
    You damn impertinent old geezer!
[10:12] ---
    I'm through showing you mercy!
[10:41] ---
    Huh?! Huh?! Huh?!
[10:43] ---
    You bastards! Bastards! Bastards!
[10:51] ---
    It's over for you!
[10:54] ---
    You're the one who's at his end!
[10:57] ---
    Die!
[11:01] ---
    General Yeegar! Please don't move!
[11:13] ---
    So you're Allen Walker?
[11:15] ---
    You saved me from danger. Thank you.
[11:18] ---
    Not at all.
[11:21] ---
    I'm so glad that you're
    okay, General Yeegar...
[11:24] ---
    and that you were able to collect
    the Innocence successfully...
[11:27] ---
    Yes... but...
[11:33] ---
    Innocent people were victimized again...
[11:41] ---
    Had I come here sooner,
    we wouldn't have had to lose lives...
[11:46] ---
    I'm sorry...
[11:48] ---
    What're you saying?
[11:50] ---
    Thanks to you, General,
    all these lives were saved.
[11:55] ---
    We appreciate you from the bottom
    of our hearts. Thank you very much.
[12:00] ---
    Thank you very much.
[12:08] ---
    I heard that you're General
    Cross's apprentice.
[12:11] ---
    Ah, yes.
[12:13] ---
    Didn't he put you through
    quite a bit of hardship?
[12:16] ---
    Yes, indeed...
[12:17] ---
    Ah, no! No, he didn't!
[12:20] ---
    I appreciate my Master very much!
[12:22] ---
    Ha! Although he's hopeless as a person,
[12:26] ---
    when it comes to the feeling of wanting
    to eliminate Akuma from this world,
[12:29] ---
    his is stronger than anyone else's.
[12:31] ---
    What?
[12:33] ---
    I think that's exactly why
    he made you his apprentice...
[12:36] ---
    You, who has housed
    Innocence since your birth...
[12:39] ---
    As you know, each of us, the five Generals,
[12:43] ---
    carry several pieces of Innocence
    in order to find Accommodators.
[12:48] ---
    Including the one I collected today,
    I have eight pieces now.
[12:54] ---
    I don't know how many more
    pieces of Innocence I can collect
[12:58] ---
    and how many more Accommodators
    I can find while I'm alive.
[13:02] ---
    But in order to end this battle as soon
    as possible, I have to keep on going.
[13:07] ---
    Now eat.
[13:08] ---
    This is to show my appreciation.
[13:12] ---
    Please... I didn't do anything
    to deserve so many thanks from you...
[13:16] ---
    This isn't for saving me.
[13:18] ---
    This is for becoming an Exorcist.
[13:22] ---
    Ah... What?
[13:24] ---
    While you're actually an Accommodator,
[13:26] ---
    it's quite painful to send youngsters
    such as yourself to the jaws of death.
[13:30] ---
    I thought you at least deserve to eat
    well while you're staying at the Order.
[13:36] ---
    General Yeegar...
[13:45] ---
    This is delicious!
[13:47] ---
    I can eat... with no limits!
[13:50] ---
    I-Is that right? You can eat more?
[13:54] ---
    Yes!
[13:56] ---
    Amazing...
[13:58] ---
    It's true that one characteristic
    of hosts of Parasite Type Innocence
[14:02] ---
    is an unusually large
    appetite, but even so...
[14:09] ---
    Ah! I'm sorry!
    I ate everyone else's food, too...
[14:12] ---
    Oh, don't worry about it.
[14:14] ---
    Eat as much as you want.
[14:21] ---
    When someone eats so much
    like that, it's rewarding to cook.
[14:26] ---
    He's just like you said
    he was, Thierry-san.
[14:29] ---
    General Yeegar really is a kind person.
[14:32] ---
    He must've also been a good
    teacher who was really kind
[14:35] ---
    and popular when he was teaching at school.
[14:39] ---
    No... I wasn't a good
    teacher by any means...
[14:42] ---
    What?
[14:44] ---
    Since I wasn't able to
    save my dear students.
[14:50] ---
    Your students?
[14:53] ---
    Could it possibly be...
[14:55] ---
    Yes... It happened 40 years ago...
[15:00] ---
    Around that time, I was a
    schoolteacher in a small village.
[15:05] ---
    There were a little under 20 students.
[15:08] ---
    I devoted my entire affection to
    them and the students reciprocated.
[15:13] ---
    We all shared a strong bond.
[15:16] ---
    However, that bond led
    to a great tragedy...
[15:23] ---
    One day, one of the female students
    passed away due to a sudden illness.
[15:28] ---
    Everyone in the class mourned her death,
[15:31] ---
    but the grief of her closest friend,
    Joanne, was quite deep.
[15:36] ---
    And that man took advantage of her grief...
[15:42] ---
    Good evening.
[15:48] ---
    Millennium Earl...
[15:50] ---
    He had Joanne bring her
    best friend's soul back
[15:53] ---
    and turn her friend into an Akuma.
[15:55] ---
    Since her classmates
    didn't know what happened,
[15:58] ---
    they were genuinely happy to
    see her when she came to school
[16:01] ---
    after her long absence.
[16:03] ---
    Are you okay now, Joanne?
[16:05] ---
    You look a little pale...
[16:07] ---
    Let's cheer up and do our best.
[16:17] ---
    What I saw there was the
    aftermath of a horrific tragedy.
[16:21] ---
    Most of the students weren't breathing,
[16:23] ---
    and the few students left
    were suffering from the agony of death.
[16:29] ---
    While panicking, I rushed out
    to the schoolyard to call for help.
[16:34] ---
    Then,
[16:36] ---
    I saw Joanne standing face
    to face with an unknown man.
[16:43] ---
    What're you going to do?! Stop it!
[16:57] ---
    That man was an Exorcist
    from the Black Order.
[17:02] ---
    After he explained to me what Akuma were,
[17:05] ---
    I went to the Order.
[17:07] ---
    There I found out that I was also
    an Accommodator of Innocence
[17:10] ---
    and that I, too, would be
    able to become an Exorcist.
[17:14] ---
    For 40 years since then,
[17:17] ---
    I've kept fighting in the hope
    of preventing future tragedies...
[17:22] ---
    However, there's still
    no end to the tragedies...
[17:26] ---
    It seems that you've been through
    many hardships as well, Allen Walker.
[17:31] ---
    I turned Mana into an Akuma...
    Mana, someone precious who raised me...
[17:38] ---
    And I was also the one who
    destroyed that Akuma.
[17:41] ---
    My left eye received the curse then
    and I became able to see Akuma's souls...
[17:46] ---
    So I heard.
[17:48] ---
    And I also heard that you
    became Cross' apprentice
[17:50] ---
    before becoming an Exorcist.
[17:54] ---
    At first, I hoped it would be atonement
    for turning Mana into an Akuma...
[17:58] ---
    But it's no longer for atonement.
    I fight in order to live...
[18:02] ---
    in order for the people
    who died to rest easy...
[18:05] ---
    in order to live strongly for today...
[18:08] ---
    since that's my fate as someone
    who's housed Innocence since birth...
[18:14] ---
    and because I turned someone
    precious into an Akuma...
[18:18] ---
    so this is the only thing I can do to...
[18:21] ---
    You've done the utmost...
[18:23] ---
    I'm glad that you've lived all this
    time without bitterness over being born
[18:26] ---
    into such a tough fate.
[18:29] ---
    General Yeegar...
[18:31] ---
    I do understand well how you and
    Joanne could bring back the soul
[18:34] ---
    of someone precious.
[18:38] ---
    No one can blame you for that...
[18:42] ---
    not even Exorcists...
[18:45] ---
    On the contrary, knowing its pain and grief
[18:49] ---
    will become a great strength
    in living as an Exorcist...
[18:54] ---
    in order to save as many
    souls as possible...
[19:02] ---
    What's the matter?
[19:04] ---
    What? O... Oh...
[19:06] ---
    I suddenly somehow... Sorry...
[19:09] ---
    It wasn't a mistake...
[19:11] ---
    It wasn't a mistake...
    that I became an Exorcist... right, Mana?

[19:25] ---
    Take care!
[19:59] ---
    No matter how much you guys struggle,
    you no longer have a future.
[20:03] ---
    It's over.
[20:05] ---
    What do you mean?!
[20:06] ---
    Here is a message from the Lord Millennium.
[20:10] ---
    The time has come.
[20:12] ---
    The 7,000-year prologue is over
    and the play is finally starting.
[20:18] ---
    Don't miss the starting bell.
[20:21] ---
    The actors in this play
    are you guys... Exorcists!
[20:32] ---
    So that means the real game starts now?
[20:34] ---
    That bastard!
[20:43] ---
    ♪ The Lord Millennium is in search... ♪
[20:50] ---
    ♪ In search of an important heart... ♪
[20:56] ---
    ♪ Are you the one who has it? ♪
[20:59] ---
    ♪ I'll check it out... ♪
[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
[22:35] ---
    Preview
[22:37] ---
    The Millennium Earl announces
    the scenario for the end of mankind.

[22:42] ---
    As the starting bell rang,
    a too-cruel beginning unfolded.

[22:47] ---
    On the next episode of D.Gray-man!
[22:49] ---
    "The Beginning of the End."
[22:52] ---
    Bring salvation to this poor Akuma's soul!
[22:54] ---
