[01:34] ---
    Fire Astro Particle Cannon!
[01:59] ---
    Impossible, he shattered the
    Astro Particle Cannon's beam!
[02:08] ---
    Now I'm going to teach you what
    happens when you anger me, humans!
[02:12] ---
    Just a minute, Prince! I'm coming, too!
[02:20] ---
    Wait for me, Jennifer!
[02:23] ---
    "The Defender of Tomorrow is You!"
[02:29] ---
    Wow, they're really going at it out there.
[02:32] ---
    Jennifer, please tell me
    everything that you know.
[02:37] ---
    The Earth Defense Force
    was originally founded
[02:41] ---
    with the simple goal of saving humanity.
[02:44] ---
    As you all know, Earth is
    faced with a terrible crisis!
[02:49] ---
    Explosive population growth!
    Skyrocketing violent crime!
[02:53] ---
    The destruction of the environment!
    Severe food shortages!
[02:57] ---
    If something is not done,
    humanity will likely perish!
[03:00] ---
    Our mission is to save the human race!
[03:04] ---
    We formulated a plan in which
    humanity would migrate into space.
[03:09] ---
    But then...
[03:11] ---
    We don't need to go to all that trouble.
[03:14] ---
    All we need to do is
    take over the Netherworld.
[03:16] ---
    What?! The Netherworld?!
[03:18] ---
    If we can invade the Netherworld
    and exterminate the demons,
[03:21] ---
    we'll be killing two birds with one stone.
[03:22] ---
    Don't you agree?
[03:25] ---
    Wow, your old man is more
    demonic than any demon I know.
[03:29] ---
    Why did your father suddenly change plans?
[03:32] ---
    I honestly don't know.
[03:34] ---
    Celestia has to be involved
    in this somehow...
[03:38] ---
    Jennifer, the Commander wishes to see you.
[03:41] ---
    Jennifer...
[03:44] ---
    I'll make my father see that this
    isn't the right way to save humanity.
[03:52] ---
    Jennifer!
[04:07] ---
    Those are the "you-know-whats"
    that you talked about earlier!
[04:10] ---
    Don't thank me yet! Let's get moving!
[04:17] ---
    Man, this ship is huge!
    How much farther to the exit?
[04:30] ---
    Flonne?
[04:35] ---
    Hey, what are you doing?
[04:39] ---
    Where do you think you're going?
[04:42] ---
    Aw, that's not fair!
[04:44] ---
    Don't change the subject.
[04:46] ---
    Anyway, I have to go up here and see what's--
[04:49] ---
    Hold it!
[04:51] ---
    Keep climbing! That's it, nice and slow...
[05:01] ---
    I said freeze!
    Take one step, and we'll open fire!
[05:03] ---
    Fine, fine, we're freezing!
[05:05] ---
    Please let me through! There's something
    that I have to make sure of!
[05:12] ---
    I have brought her, sir.
[05:14] ---
    Well done.
[05:16] ---
    Father, there is something
    that I need to discuss with you.
[05:18] ---
    It can wait until later.
[05:20] ---
    For now, you should watch over how our
    forces are comporting themselves in battle.
[05:23] ---
    After all, you will be the next Supreme
    Commander of the Earth Defense Force.
[05:30] ---
    If this is what it means to be
    Supreme Commander, I want no part of it.
[05:33] ---
    What was that?
[05:35] ---
    I'm saying that I don't want
    to become like you, Father!
[05:38] ---
    Jennifer!
[05:39] ---
    It's wrong to think that we're
    justified in doing anything so long
[05:42] ---
    as it saves humanity, Father!
[05:45] ---
    All right, I understand. There's no
    need to get so emotional about it.
[05:48] ---
    You just want me to hear you out, right?
[05:53] ---
    Let's talk about this outside.
[05:57] ---
    Just as I thought, even a man like
    you can be swayed by your daughter.
[06:06] ---
    I still have one last job for
    Jennifer to carry out for me.
[06:17] ---
    Etna...
[06:20] ---
    Prinny Squad! C'mon!
[06:31] ---
    What's with all these penguins?!
[06:34] ---
    They aren't penguins, they're Prinnies!
[06:36] ---
    I'm touched that they'd
    come all this way for us!
[06:44] ---
    Listen up, you bums! We're gonna
    smash this place 'til there's nothing left!
[06:48] ---
    Aye aye, dood!
[06:50] ---
    I knew it...
[07:03] ---
    Father... What happened to me?
[07:08] ---
    You passed out all of a sudden.
    You must be exhausted.
[07:11] ---
    You should rest for a while.
[07:19] ---
    That's a--
[07:20] ---
    That's my daughter.
    You recognized what this is right away.
[07:25] ---
    No, stop!
[07:27] ---
    Let me go!
[07:30] ---
    Please! Stop using me as your pawn!
[07:35] ---
    Father!
[07:40] ---
    Angel Cannon power at 120%.
[07:43] ---
    Ready to fire!
[07:45] ---
    Two bogies closing in from dead ahead!
[07:47] ---
    So, you want another taste
    of that beam, do you, demon?
[07:53] ---
    We're the Prinny Squad, doods!
[07:55] ---
    Don't mind us, doods!
[07:59] ---
    "Prinny Squad"?
[08:05] ---
    That's the way! Destroy anything
    you can get your flippers on!
[08:08] ---
    Destroy everything, eh?
    Thursday, finish these things!
[08:12] ---
    Roger! Changing to Robo Attack!
[08:26] ---
    Where's Jennifer?
[08:33] ---
    Highness!
[08:34] ---
    Laharl! Mr. Gordon!
[08:37] ---
    I'm surprised to see you.
[08:39] ---
    Where's Jennifer?!
[08:41] ---
    The Commander is busy
    modifying her at the moment.
[08:43] ---
    Modifying her?!
[08:45] ---
    "Modifying"?
[08:51] ---
    This I've gotta see!
[08:53] ---
    I'm kinda morbidly
    curious about this myself...
[09:01] ---
    What do you mean, the Commander
    is modifying Jennifer?!
[09:04] ---
    Come now, it's hardly unheard-of these days.
[09:08] ---
    Kurtis, your arm...
[09:10] ---
    And now he's revealed that he's a cyborg!
[09:12] ---
    Flonne, you've got way too many interests.
[09:15] ---
    In other words, she'll
    geek out over anything.
[09:17] ---
    It happened in that incident five
    years ago. I lost everything that day.
[09:22] ---
    Geez, they've started
    reminiscing about the old days...
[09:25] ---
    Should we blindside him
    while he's distracted?
[09:27] ---
    Shh! We have to hear him out!
[09:30] ---
    A rival is always burdened with
    some tragic incident in the past!
[09:35] ---
    It happened five years ago this very day.
[09:37] ---
    A radical group opposed to
    space research carried out
[09:41] ---
    a bombing attack on the
    World Space Research Institute today!
[09:44] ---
    The death toll has reached 350 so far, and--
[09:53] ---
    I lost my wife and daughter in that attack,
    and 70% of my body was mechanized.
[10:01] ---
    I had no idea! Your family was
    among the victims of that bombing?!
[10:10] ---
    What good is the Defender of Earth if he
    can't save the lives of innocent people?
[10:14] ---
    A true Defender of Earth would stop at
    nothing to save as many people as he could!
[10:25] ---
    You're wrong!
[10:27] ---
    Invading the Netherworld might
    save humanity, I'll give you that.
[10:30] ---
    But doing so will cost countless lives!
    Is that what you want?
[10:35] ---
    Do you really think that
    that's what's best for humanity?
[10:38] ---
    It's naive thinking like
    that that cost me my family!
[10:45] ---
    I swore an oath that day that if the
    Defender of Earth couldn't do his job...
[10:53] ---
    ...then I would defeat him and
    become the true Defender of Earth!
[10:58] ---
    That is the only path that's left to me now!
[11:03] ---
    You mustn't!
[11:09] ---
    You don't care if you create more
    innocent victims like your wife and daughter?
[11:13] ---
    What?
[11:14] ---
    Demons have families, too!
[11:17] ---
    It's wrong to think that anything is
    justified if it might save humanity!
[11:21] ---
    Not when you should know the pain of
    losing a loved one better than anyone!
[11:27] ---
    She's right! Seeing what you've become,
[11:29] ---
    what would your wife and daughter
    think of you up in heaven?
[11:32] ---
    Shut up! Shut up!
[11:38] ---
    Kurtis!
[11:41] ---
    Dood, sabotage activities
    have been completed!
[11:44] ---
    Kurtis!
[11:49] ---
    Don't come complaining to me
    when Flonne gives you an earful
[11:52] ---
    for sneaking out in the middle
    of that guy's speech, Highness.
[11:55] ---
    We don't have time to hang around
    and listen to those two reminisce.
[11:57] ---
    The first order of business is to
    take down that uppity bastard.
[12:00] ---
    Yessir...
[12:02] ---
    Kurtis!
[12:05] ---
    Kurtis! Hurry! This way!
[12:13] ---
    Forget about me... Get going!
[12:15] ---
    But I can't...
[12:16] ---
    Jennifer is in ♪13 medical room.
    If you go now, you might get there in time!
[12:22] ---
    Kurtis!
[12:23] ---
    Get going, Defender of Earth!
[12:29] ---
    You should hurry, too.
[12:30] ---
    But...
[12:32] ---
    If you go, you might find the
    answers that you're looking for.
[12:36] ---
    But I can't--
[12:38] ---
    Hey, wait! Put me down!
[12:49] ---
    "Disgaea"
[12:52] ---
    "Disgaea"
[13:04] ---
    Give Jennifer back to me!
[13:05] ---
    Very well, if you insist. Jennifer!
[13:10] ---
    What in the world?!
[13:16] ---
    Come on, you call this "modified"?
[13:18] ---
    All he did was stick some
    weird doohickey on her head.
[13:22] ---
    I was expecting to see
    something more amazing, too...
[13:25] ---
    You three don't seem to understand
    just how amazing this device really is.
[13:28] ---
    Isn't that right, Jennifer?
[13:29] ---
    Yes, Father.
[13:32] ---
    Is it just me, or she acting kinda funny?
[13:34] ---
    It's mind control!
[13:36] ---
    Mind control?
[13:39] ---
    He's using that device
    to control Jennifer's mind.
[13:43] ---
    Go, Jennifer! Kill them!
[13:46] ---
    Yes, Father.
[13:49] ---
    As the sidekick of the
    Defender of Earth, you must--
[13:55] ---
    Listen to what your heart is telling you!
[13:57] ---
    What is right?!
    What you ought to believe in?!
[14:00] ---
    And what you ought to do right now!
[14:03] ---
    What she ought to do? You are the
    one who doesn't understand, Gordon.
[14:09] ---
    To execute our Netherworld Invasion Project,
    what we needed more than anything
[14:12] ---
    was for someone to scout ahead
    and investigate the Netherworld.
[14:16] ---
    And you fulfilled that
    role beautifully. Well done.
[14:21] ---
    Now, Jennifer, put him out of his misery.
[14:24] ---
    Yes, Father.
[14:29] ---
    Oh, no! Gordon's in trouble!
[14:31] ---
    I swear, that bozo can't do anything right!
[14:34] ---
    Don't interfere! This is something
    that he has to do himself!
[14:37] ---
    What a sorry sight this is, Gordon!
[14:42] ---
    What happened to that true spirit of a
    defender that you showed me on the bridge?
[14:45] ---
    And now we're at the climax of the battle!
[14:48] ---
    You traitor! How dare you interfere?!
[14:52] ---
    Get down, everyone!
[15:03] ---
    Kurtis?!
[15:13] ---
    Gordon, I wanted to be a true
    Defender of Earth, just like you...
[15:23] ---
    Kurtis!
[15:27] ---
    Kurtis?
[15:29] ---
    Kurtis... You will be forever known
    as the 38th Defender of Earth!
[15:34] ---
    Kurtis...! He's dead because of me!
[15:39] ---
    Hey, she's back to normal!
[15:41] ---
    Shh! Don't talk during a touching moment!
[15:43] ---
    You know,
[15:45] ---
    this almost makes it look like they're
    the stars of the show all of a sudden.
[15:47] ---
    Are you okay with that?
[15:49] ---
    They can have the spotlight this one time.
[15:51] ---
    It's always so sad when the rival
    lays down his life, isn't it?
[15:55] ---
    Hey, where'd the old dude
    with the mustache go?
[16:01] ---
    You don't know when to
    give up, do you, Father?
[16:05] ---
    Stand aside, Jennifer!
    Or have you forgotten who raised you?
[16:10] ---
    I always had faith in
    you. I even loved you...
[16:14] ---
    But your only goal was to
    use me for your own ends!
[16:18] ---
    You've lost the right to
    be called father by me!
[16:20] ---
    Give yourself up, Carter!
[16:31] ---
    Now this is what I call divine protection!
[16:35] ---
    Why have the Celestial
    hosts come to protect him?
[16:43] ---
    What in the world is going on?!
[16:45] ---
    That clinches it, Celestia is definitely
    working in cahoots with the human world.
[16:49] ---
    It can't be...!
[16:50] ---
    Prepare to die, demons!
[16:55] ---
    Berry Barrier Balidaire!
[17:07] ---
    What have I done?
[17:08] ---
    You people must have a
    death wish to dare to attack me!
[17:22] ---
    You have to believe me! I'm innocent!
[17:25] ---
    I don't care how advanced
    human science and technology is.
[17:28] ---
    You shouldn't have been able to
    come in here as easily as you did
[17:30] ---
    without help from someone
    who's familiar with the Netherworld.
[17:33] ---
    Answer me, human.
    Who's pulling your strings?
[17:36] ---
    It's...
[17:38] ---
    Spill it!
[17:38] ---
    I-It's a man who had white wings!
[17:42] ---
    White wings?
[17:46] ---
    I knew it, Celestia is behind this.
[17:48] ---
    He told me that if Celestia and the human
    world joined forces to wipe out the demons,
[17:51] ---
    the safety of the human
    race would be assured!
[17:54] ---
    Sounds like a big, fat lie to me.
[17:57] ---
    I was only trying to protect--
[17:59] ---
    Mr. Carter, there's something
    that I want to ask you.
[18:02] ---
    Like what?
[18:04] ---
    Prinny!
[18:05] ---
    Here you go...
[18:11] ---
    Did you get this from the same man?
[18:13] ---
    That's right. He said
    that if we used its energy,
[18:17] ---
    it would have a devastating
    effect on any demon.
[18:20] ---
    He did?
[18:22] ---
    It's no wonder that this
    knocked you for a loop, Highness.
[18:25] ---
    This is the same kind of
    stone as Flonne's necklace!
[18:36] ---
    How could I have been so careless?!
[18:44] ---
    Sooner or later, the
    Netherworld will be ours.
[18:46] ---
    What a fool you are...
[18:48] ---
    W-Who's there?!
[18:49] ---
    You aren't capable of saving the Earth.
[18:52] ---
    How can you expect to save anyone else
    when you can't even save your own daughter?
[19:01] ---
    That ought to do the trick!
[19:06] ---
    What did he mean by that?
[19:08] ---
    Was it that angel who said that?
    Have I been betrayed?
[19:19] ---
    Surely fate's hand is at work here!
[19:21] ---
    Let's agree to a noninterference
    treaty between our two peoples!
[19:25] ---
    Very well.
[19:28] ---
    I'm glad we met you, everyone. Take care.
[19:31] ---
    --Goodbye. Goodbye.
[19:32] ---
    --Goodbye!
[19:34] ---
    Hey, why aren't you going
    home in this behemoth?
[19:37] ---
    We have no more use for it.
    Feel free to use it for yourselves!
[19:41] ---
    I don't need--
[19:41] ---
    You really mean it?!
[19:43] ---
    I've always wanted one of these!
    Thank you so much!
[19:46] ---
    What're you gonna do with a spaceship?
[19:47] ---
    This is goodbye, my friends!
    Now, take off for Earth!
[19:55] ---
    Goodbye!
[19:57] ---
    This means that the human world
    effectively belongs to me, too.
[20:01] ---
    Way to go, Highness! Is that what you
    were after when you agreed to that treaty?
[20:05] ---
    You sly devil, you!
[20:06] ---
    Don't go overboard with the compliments.
[20:11] ---
    I'm leaving, too. For Celestia.
[20:13] ---
    Huh? How come?
[20:15] ---
    Something is happening in Celestia.
[20:17] ---
    That's the only conclusion
    that I can come to.
[20:20] ---
    I think I'll be able to find some
    answers if I go to see Seraph Lamington.
[20:25] ---
    Laharl, Etna, I really appreciate
    everything that you've done for me.
[20:31] ---
    Thank you very much.
[20:33] ---
    Flonne?
[20:35] ---
    Take care, you two.
[20:39] ---
    Are you sure you want to let
    Flonne go all by herself?
[20:44] ---
    Hold it! I'm coming, too.
[20:47] ---
    I knew it, you were worried about her!
[20:49] ---
    You stinker!
[20:51] ---
    As if!
[20:52] ---
    This is the perfect opportunity
    for me to take over Celestia!
[20:55] ---
    --To take over Celestia?!
[20:55] ---
    --To take over Celestia?!
[20:58] ---
    I've taken control of the Netherworld.
[21:00] ---
    For all intents and purposes,
    the human world now belongs to me, too.
[21:04] ---
    All that's left is Celestia,
    and thanks to what happened today,
[21:06] ---
    I now have the means to
    invade them fair and square!
[21:09] ---
    It's only a matter of time before
    Celestia falls into my clutches, too!
[21:15] ---
    What a Prince-ish thing to say. Right?
[21:17] ---
    It sure is. That's Laharl all over.
[21:20] ---
    Hey! How come I'm the one who
    has to pilot this stupid thing?!
[21:24] ---
    Are we ready to set sail, everyone?
[21:26] ---
    All right, set course for Celestia! Take off!
[21:43] ---
    If I don't do something,
    they'll ruin all my plans...
[21:53] ---
    You have done enough.
[21:56] ---
    Seraph Lamington!
[21:59] ---
    You have served me well, Vulcanus.
[22:11] ---
    Ow... We're there already?
[22:14] ---
    No, we're not.

    The next episode of Disgaea
    is chock full of love, Highness!
[24:03] ---
    Stop it, you're grossing me out.
[24:05] ---
    It's inevitable that hot tears of profound
    emotion will crawl down your cheek!

    You'd better have your hankies
    at the ready, everybody!

    Flonne's already turned on the waterworks!
[24:16] ---
    Yikes, seeing her face without
    any makeup scares even me...
[24:19] ---
    Next time on Disgaea!
    "A Night Lit Up By a Red Moon"!

    "Next Time: A Night Lit Up By a Red Moon"
[24:24] ---
    I'll never admit to love being
    anything but worthless. Never!
