[00:10] K
    Ren!
[00:11] K
    I need to talk to you—
[00:18] R
    What's wrong, Ayase-san?
[00:20] K
    Rea-senpai.
[00:21] K
    Have you seen Ren?
[00:24] R
    No.
[00:25] R
    Why?
[00:27] K
    It just feels like he's avoiding me...
[00:31] K
    This morning, he left without talking to me.
[00:34] R
    Did you have a fight?
[00:36] R
    Or any other reason?
[00:37] K
    Actually, nothing I can think of.
[00:41] K
    Lately, my memories have been all fuzzy.
[00:44] R
    What?
[00:45] R
    That makes zero sense.
[00:47] K
    That's what I wanted to talk to him about,
[00:50] K
    but I can't find him!
[00:52] K
    Jeez!
[00:53] K
    Where did you go, Ren?!
[01:09] L
    You look like you're in pain.
[01:12] L
    Are you avoiding Ayase-san?
[01:15] L
    Well, that is the right move.
[01:16] L
    Right now, you're dangerous.
[01:18] F
    Shut up.
[01:20] F
    If you don't need anything, leave.
[01:22] F
    Otherwise...
[01:24] L
    Or you'll what?
[01:30] L
    Kill me?
[01:31] L
    But you can't do that yet.
[01:33] L
    You can't even shake me off now, can you?
[01:38] L
    If you want to try,
[01:39] L
    come here once more, tonight.
[01:41] L
    I'll teach you all kinds of things.
[01:44] L
    About how to use this.
SIGN    Spider
[03:17] Gu
    And that's how it happened...
[03:20] Gu
    The stage is finally set.
[03:23] Gu
    But actually, that is all that's happened.
[03:25] Gu
    I believe there are still
    things to worry about.
[03:29] Gu
    Specifically...
[03:30] Gu
    The war Lord Heydrich seeks
    must not be half-hearted.
[03:34] Gu
    That's what you want to say, isn't it?
[03:36] Gu
    The death of lesser beings will
    not take you to Valhalla.
[03:39] Gu
    The enemy must be strong,
    a symbol of our glory.
[03:44] Gu
    Yes.
[03:45] Gu
    And so, let us take one more step,
[03:47] Gu
    for the benefit of Lord Heydrich.
[03:50] Gu
    As our master's stand-in,
[03:53] Gu
    I order you all...
[03:56] Gu
    Sometimes, war involves 
    strengthening the enemy.
[04:02] L
    And that is the situation.
[04:04] L
    I've been ordered to make
    you a little more useful.
[04:08] L
    Some were opposed to it,
[04:10] L
    but I was not.
[04:12] L
    So I was given the job.
[04:14] L
    We are the same age, too.
[04:17] L
    Which means that I can be kindest to you.
[04:21] F
    What?
[04:23] L
    I'm not as old as the others.
[04:27] L
    I think we'll find we have much in common.
[04:30] F
    Yeah, right...
[04:32] F
    Didn't you say you're after a war?
[04:34] L
    Yes, but currently, things are like this.
[04:38] L
    Don't be so jumpy around me.
[04:40] L
    If you want to fight soon,
[04:41] L
    get stronger.
[04:43] L
    Got it?
[04:46] L
    First, let us start with the very basics.
[04:49] L
    Who are we?
[04:51] L
    I said this before,
[04:53] L
    but it all started with one mage.
[04:56] L
    Karl Krafft. Mercurius.
[05:00] L
    During World War II,
[05:02] L
    soldiers and criminals gained
    power, with his help.
[05:06] L
    Including him, thirteen in all.
[05:11] L
    The Longinus Dreizehn Orden
    black round table.
[05:14] L
    That is who we are.
[05:18] L
    But several of us are dead or gone,
[05:21] L
    so some have been replaced,
    and some seats are unfilled.
[05:27] L
    I took the place of the fifth
    about a decade ago.
[05:34] L
    Just like the others, I have a wish
    that I want to come true.
[05:38] L
    Did anyone tell you about that?
[05:40] F
    Yeah, but not the details.
[05:43] L
    Then I won't tell you, either.
[05:45] L
    It's private.
[05:48] L
    I can tell you that, basically,
    we're a bunch of losers.
[05:53] L
    We were a bizarre group, to begin with.
[05:55] L
    So if we want our wishes granted,
[05:57] L
    we must make it happen in a bizarre way.
[06:00] F
    And that's a war?
[06:02] L
    Yes, and a war needs an opponent, doesn't it?
[06:05] L
    Krafft...
[06:07] L
    He is the second most important of us,
[06:10] L
    and he says he will prepare the right opponent
     in the right place, at the right time.
[06:16] L
    We are to fight him, defeat him,
    and make our dreams come true.
[06:20] L
    In other words, we are
    supposed to defeat you!
[06:23] F
    That makes no sense.
[06:25] F
    What the hell are you talking about?
[06:27] F
    I have no idea who you people are.
[06:29] F
    Or who this Mercurius guy is.
[06:31] L
    But right now, the situation is
    that everyone is after you.
[06:35] L
    If you dislike it, complain to Krafft.
[06:38] L
    All the veterans dislike him.
[06:41] L
    I've heard he's pretty nasty.
[06:43] L
    No, not just him.
[06:45] L
    Since the last great war, several among
    the higher ranks have disappeared.
[06:51] L
    Krafft is one of them.
[06:53] L
    So I don't know much about them,
[06:56] L
    but I've heard they're all monsters.
[06:59] L
    And that, if the war proceeds,
    they will return.
[07:02] F
    In other words,
[07:03] F
    the guys at the bottom of the totem pole
    must satisfy the important ones?
[07:08] L
    Yes.
[07:09] L
    Otherwise, my wish won't come true.
[07:16] L
    The magic that Krafft gave us
    allows us to contract
[07:19] L
    with a special weapon to gain its power.
[07:24] L
    These weapons are called relics.
[07:26] L
    Most of them are actually cursed.
[07:29] L
    So they eat human souls,
[07:31] L
    which makes us stronger and harder to kill.
[07:35] L
    If we kill a hundred, we gain
    the lives of a hundred,
[07:38] L
    and can do a hundred times
    more than a human can.
[07:42] L
    That is why you couldn't lay a finger on Bey.
[07:47] L
    Obviously, kicking and punching have no effect,
[07:49] L
    but neither do bombs or guns.
[07:51] L
    He has killed so many and become so strong.
[07:54] L
    Now, you are just like him, too.
[07:57] L
    You have a weapon that
    turns souls into power.
[08:00] L
    But you are still a beginner.
[08:02] L
    Since it's a spell,
[08:03] L
    the more experienced you are
    with it, the more you can do.
SIGN    Creation  Formation  Activity
[08:07] L
    The lowest level is activity.
[08:09] L
    Then, formation.
[08:10] L
    Then, creation.
SIGN    Creation
[08:11] L
    And the highest level has never been reached,
[08:16] L
    so we don't know what it is.
SIGN    Formation  Activity
[08:18] L
    But right now, you are at the activity level.
[08:21] L
    At that stage,
[08:22] L
    with a thought, you can activate
    your relic's capabilities.
[08:26] L
    For example, a blade can
    fire invisible slashes.
[08:29] L
    That may sound convenient,
    but this stage is unstable.
[08:34] L
    Since you haven't mastered your relic,
[08:36] L
    the power is low, but it's
    easy to lose control.
[08:40] L
    Thus, at a minimum, you need
     to reach the formation level.
[08:43] L
    There, you can give your relic
     physical form and turn it into a weapon.
[08:47] L
    If you cannot do it, you won't
     stand a chance, Fujii-kun.
[08:50] L
    And so, try for that first.
[08:53] L
    I will teach you the basics.
[09:22] K
    I finally caught you!
[09:24] K
    Where the hell have you been?!
[09:30] K
    Listen, I don't know what happened,
[09:33] K
    but lately, you've been weird.
[09:35] K
    You sealed the hole in the room.
[09:36] K
    I mean, I know I might have done
    some things I shouldn't have...
[09:41] K
    But unless you tell me,
    I won't know what's going on!
[09:43] K
    Have I done something to make you avoid me?
[09:52] Gi
    Oh, my!
[09:54] Gi
    What's wrong, you two?
[09:56] Gi
    Having a lover's quarrel?
[09:59] K
    That isn't it...
[10:01] K
    He's just being awkward.
[10:04] Gi
    I see.
[10:05] Gi
    That's because...
[10:08] F
    Sorry, Kasumi.
[10:09] F
    I didn't tell you.
[10:11] F
    I-I'm actually dating Sakurai.
[10:18] Gi
    Is that so?
[10:19] K
    Wait! Huh?
[10:20] K
    What? Really?
[10:22] F
    Yeah, really...
[10:24] F
    Right?
[10:27] L
    Yes, it seems like we are.
[10:29] K
    She's really jealous.
[10:32] K
    And so, um, please understand, Kasumi.
[10:36] L
    Yes.
[10:37] L
    From now on, I will take care of Fujii-kun.
[10:40] L
    Thanks for everything, Ayase-san.
[10:43] K
    S-Sure...
[10:44] K
    I see.
[10:46] K
    S-Sorry for not figuring it out.
[11:02] A
    Oh, no... Oh, no.
[11:08] A
    I'm sorry!
[11:09] A
    I wasn't watching...
[11:24] F
    I see.
[11:24] F
    I finally understand.
[11:26] F
    You are the soul that dwells
    within that guillotine, right?
[11:31] F
    When, and how, did that happen to you?
[11:37] Gi
    I can touch you.
[11:39] Gi
    Just as Cagliostro said.
[11:41] Gi
    You're all right, even if I touch you.
[11:45] Gi
    That makes me happy.
[11:46] Gi
    You're so warm.
[11:50] Gi
    Ren...
[11:51] Gi
    I'm sure you can...
[11:57] F
    I'm not good around blades.
[12:00] F
    I have a bad memory involving them.
[12:04] F
    But...
[12:05] F
    You're a good girl, right?
[12:07] F
    That, I understand.
[12:09] F
    So if you can, I want you to be happy, too.
[12:20] Gi
    What are you doing, Fujii-kun?
[12:25] Gi
    Hello.
[12:26] Gi
    We're looking for the Father.
[12:28] Gi
    Have you seen him?
[12:29] F
    Father Trifa?
[12:31] F
    No, I'm afraid not...
[12:33] F
    But why?
[12:34] Gi
    Because Rea is always mean to him.
[12:37] Gi
    It's my fault?
[12:39] Gi
    Oh? Then, is it my fault?
[12:41] F
    In other words, he ran away from
    home because of you two?
SIGN    Meat Buns, 100 Yen!
[12:44] Gi
    Fujii-kun, you're a terrible judge of people.
[12:47] Gi
    He's actually quite—
[12:50] Gi
    Well, that's the situation.
[12:51] Gi
    Fujii-kun, you be careful out there, too.
[12:54] Gi
    Wait, Riza, we aren't done talking.
[12:57] ---
    Riza!
[13:13] Gi
    That's strange.
[13:15] Gi
    I thought he came this way.
[13:25] Gu
    Oh?
[13:26] Gu
    What's wrong, Fujii-san?
[13:30] Gu
    Fancy running into you here.
[13:33] Gu
    Did you need something?
[13:35] F
    No, I...
[13:38] F
    I guess those two asked you to look for me.
[13:41] F
    How embarrassing.
[13:44] F
    They have a very low opinion of me.
[13:47] F
    That isn't true.
[13:49] F
    I think they were worried.
[13:52] F
    So you should go back.
[13:54] F
    I see...
[13:56] F
    Well, in my own way, I'm worried
    about Theresia, as well.
[14:01] F
    It makes me sad that she
    fails to understand that.
[14:05] F
    Fujii-san,
[14:07] F
    do you love Theresia?
[14:13] F
    Excuse me.
[14:14] F
    That was an odd thing to ask.
[14:16] F
    Farewell.
[14:18] F
    Wait!
[14:30] F
    Impossible...
[14:32] F
    I imagined it.
[14:34] F
    I must have.
[14:40] [Messenger] F
    Ayase Kasumi
[14:42] F
    Hello?
[14:43] F
    What's up, Kasumi?
[14:45] F
    Hey, Kasumi... Hey.
[14:49] K
    Ren...
[14:51] K
    Help me...
[14:54] Gu
    Your girlfriend's cute, isn't she?
[14:56] Gu
    It makes me want to eat her up.
[14:59] Gu
    I am Spinne,
[15:00] Gu
    a fan of yours.
[15:03] F
    Hey...
[15:04] F
    Don't move an inch.
[15:06] F
    I'm on my way to kill you!
[15:45] F
    You bastard...
[15:47] Gu
    Welcome!
[15:48] Gu
    Are you enjoying tonight's banquet?
[15:51] Gu
    I will introduce myself once more...
[15:54] Gu
    Tenth of the Longinus Dreizehn Orden
    black round table, Rot Spinne.
[15:59] Gu
    A pleasure to meet you.
[16:04] Gu
    It's useless.
[16:05] Gu
    Right now, you can't cut through them.
[16:08] Gu
    Leonhart told you, yes?
[16:11] Gu
    This is the formation level,
[16:12] Gu
    a relic given form as a weapon...
[16:17] Gu
    If you can't compete on the same level,
    you have no chance of winning.
[16:20] Gu
    Just like anything else.
[16:33] Gu
    But the spirit is still in your eyes.
[16:36] Gu
    I love it! Wonderful!
[16:39] Gu
    I'm sure you've heard this, as well,
[16:41] Gu
    but we want you to be strong.
[16:44] Gu
    And so, Leonhart will provide lectures,
[16:46] Gu
    and I provide the practical examination.
[16:51] Gu
    But between you and me, I have
    no intention of being your enemy,
[16:55] Gu
    even if others might.
[16:58] F
    What?
[16:59] Gu
    Just what I said...
[17:01] Gu
    I am not like the others.
[17:04] Gu
    Thus, I want to work with you.
[17:06] Gu
    Only if you're useful, that is.
[17:17] Gu
    Please show me your true worth!
[17:32] Gu
    Now, how about it?
[17:34] Gu
    Show me... Show me!
[17:55] Gu
    Are you insane?
[17:58] Gu
    What are you trying to do?
[18:02] K
    I'll kill you...
[18:03] K
    I'll kill you, I swear...
[18:06] K
    I'll kill you!
[18:10] K
    Formation!
[18:30] Gu
    I see.
[18:31] Gu
    The child of a monster is, indeed, a monster?
[18:46] Gu
    Very well!
[18:48] Gu
    In that case, time for the real show!
[19:01] Gu
    What?!
[19:18] Gu
    Wait... No!
[19:19] Gu
    That was...
[19:20] Gu
    Priest of the Grail, save me!
[19:28] Gu
    Don't underestimate me.
[19:30] Gu
    Did you think I would act without insurance?!
[19:39] F
    And did you think I couldn't
    guess what you would do?
[19:43] F
    Farewell, Spinne...
[19:45] F
    Die within the swastika.
[19:55] Gu
    No. No...
[19:59] Gu
    No!
[20:50] A
    It isn't here, either?
[20:52] A
    Where did it go?
[20:57] A
    Ren!
[20:58] A
    Um, this is...
[21:00] A
    I lost my phone.
[21:02] A
    I thought it might be here.
[21:05] A
    And there's a lot of my stuff here, too.
[21:08] A
    I thought Sakurai-san would get
    mad if I didn't clean up...
[21:13] F
    I'm so glad.
[21:16] F
    Really, I'm so glad.
[21:18] F
    Kasumi...
