[00:03] ---
    Dragon Earth.
[00:06] ---
    A world where gods, people,
    and monsters coexist.
[00:13] ---
    Those who travel this world,
[00:15] ---
    using monsters to seek treasures that house
    the immense power of the dragon,
[00:22] ---
    are known as DraColle Battlers.
[00:26] ---
    Striving for the supreme
    title of Dragon Master,
[00:30] ---
    the DraColle Battlers continue
    their journey today!
[02:10] ---
    I am Naviko.
[02:12] ---
    In the last episode,
[02:14] ---
    Hiro and friends were challenged by Branmon,
    who sought to capture the lady thief Claire,
[02:18] ---
    but they won easily.
[02:20] ---
    Now they have arrived in Ohto,
    the capital of Dragonia,
[02:22] ---
    where they're faced with a mysterious being
    who appears to have evil intentions!
[02:28] ---
    Oh, right!
[02:29] ---
    When I mentioned my intentions
    to debut as an idol last time,
[02:33] ---
    I heard all of your inner wishes
    to hear me sing, so...
[02:38] ---
    I will now sing for you!
SIGN    The Darkness Grimoire!
[02:43] ---
    The Darkness Grimoire!
[02:46] ---
    Unfortunately, you won't be
    participating in the tournament.
[02:49] ---
    Because your lives will be ending here and now.
[02:54] ---
    That's a rather disturbing thing to
    say while keeping your face hidden.
[02:57] ---
    All right! I'll fight you!
[03:00] ---
    Here I come!
[03:03] ---
    What's wrong?!
[03:06] ---
    Wh-What'd you do that for?
[03:08] ---
    B-Brother, they've discovered us!
[03:12] ---
    What? They're mere children!
[03:15] ---
    So that was just a prank?
[03:18] ---
    You kids really shouldn't do that, even as a joke.
[03:23] ---
    Why, you...
[03:25] ---
    B-Brother?
[03:27] ---
    Don't underestimate me because I'm small!
[03:31] ---
    This little runt is a DraColle Battler?!
SIGN    DraColle Battler: Tarte
SIGN    Margarita
[03:35] ---
    Summon!
[03:37] ---
    Margarita!
[03:38] ---
    Now it's my turn!
[03:39] ---
    Oh ho!
[03:40] ---
    So you're a Water Attribute?
[03:42] ---
    In that case, I shall serve as your opponent.
[03:45] ---
    To fight Margarita...
[03:48] ---
    I'll use this!
[03:56] ---
    Summon!
[04:00] ---
    Come forth, Ice Valkyrie!
[04:06] ---
    Leave it to me!
[04:11] ---
    Go, Ice Valkyrie!
[04:12] ---
    Teach him a lesson!
[04:25] ---
    You should admit defeat gracefully.
[04:28] ---
    That's my line.
[04:40] ---
    For a kid...
[04:42] ---
    ...he's surprisingly powerful?!
[04:46] ---
    I told you not to underestimate
    me because I'm small.
[04:50] ---
    I had no idea Brother was this powerful!
[04:53] ---
    Shin! We need to help out Rei!
[04:56] ---
    Yeah, got no choice.
[04:57] ---
    Don't!
[04:58] ---
    If word got out that I lost to a child,
[05:01] ---
    it would disgrace my honor as a
    magnificent Water DraColle Battler!
[05:04] ---
    But...
[05:08] ---
    Tarte?!
[05:13] ---
    Oh, it's you!
[05:14] ---
    The lady thief from this afternoon?!
[05:17] ---
    What're y'all...
[05:18] ---
    I will defeat them.
[05:22] ---
    Tarte...
[05:23] ---
    Wake up!
[05:34] ---
    Brother!
[05:36] ---
    Brother...
[05:39] ---
    No, Brother!
[05:41] ---
    What's this?
[05:42] ---
    Don't worry, he's just unconscious.
[05:46] ---
    This grimoire...
[05:51] ---
    It vanished!
[05:52] ---
    What's going on?
[05:54] ---
    Has the tournament already started?
[05:57] ---
    Or is it just a street fight?
[06:00] ---
    You guys...
[06:02] ---
    In Ohto, battles outside the
    tournament are strictly forbidden.
[06:05] ---
    You'd better run!
[06:08] ---
    I'm concerned about that grimoire.
[06:11] ---
    Let's follow them!
[06:12] ---
    Definitely!
[06:21] ---
    Who is this place?
[06:23] ---
    Where am I?
[06:25] ---
    Brother's awake!
[06:29] ---
    It's Torte and Claire...
[06:31] ---
    Good morning.
[06:32] ---
    It's not morning!
[06:33] ---
    Why did you do that?
[06:35] ---
    Do what?
[06:36] ---
    You don't remember?
[06:38] ---
    Then, you don't remember
    challenging us to a fight?
[06:41] ---
    Who're you guys?
[06:43] ---
    I've never seen you before.
[06:44] ---
    Did Branmon order you guys to
    come here and capture Claire?!
[06:51] ---
    First you've gotta fight me, the great
    Tarte, leader of the DraKids Garrison!
[06:55] ---
    I've told you...
[06:56] ---
    Ow!
[06:58] ---
    It seems that he truly does not remember.
[07:01] ---
    Yeah, compared to then,
[07:03] ---
    he's like a different person.
[07:07] ---
    More importantly, I'm hungry, Claire.
[07:10] ---
    I am, too...
[07:12] ---
    Huh? Oh, sorry.
[07:14] ---
    I didn't find any good marks today.
[07:16] ---
    Wah! I'm so hungry!
[07:18] ---
    We'll starve to death at this rate!
[07:22] ---
    Have this!
[07:24] ---
    Can we really?!
[07:25] ---
    Let's dig in!
[07:32] ---
    I'll thank you in their place.
[07:34] ---
    Thanks.
[07:36] ---
    No need to be so grateful.
[07:40] ---
    Hey, why are you eating?!
[07:46] ---
    They were pretty hungry.
[07:48] ---
    This is a place where folks who have
    trouble getting enough to eat gather.
[07:52] ---
    Well, whenever there're folks loaded with money,
[07:55] ---
    there'll be folks who don't have any.
[07:58] ---
    That's how the world works.
[08:00] ---
    I see...
[08:01] ---
    How suspicious...
[08:03] ---
    Suspicious or not, they still don't have any money.
[08:06] ---
    No, I meant that grimoire the boy had.
[08:09] ---
    You saw it too, right?
[08:11] ---
    As soon as he let go of the grimoire,
[08:13] ---
    it was as if strings holding him up had been cut.
[08:16] ---
    Yes, he looked just like a marionette.
[08:21] ---
    Where did y'all get that grimoire?
[08:26] ---
    Do you mean that book?
[08:29] ---
    You remember it?!
[08:30] ---
    It was...
[08:32] ---
    Um...
[08:33] ---
    While Brother and I were out on patrol as usual,
[08:37] ---
    a man in the forest on the outskirts
    of the city gave it to us.
[08:40] ---
    So, it should have been around here.
[08:46] ---
    Is that him?
[08:47] ---
    What are they doing?
[08:49] ---
    I'll try getting a bit closer.
[08:54] ---
    What?!
[08:54] ---
    What's that?!
[08:55] ---
    Is somebody there?!
[08:56] ---
    We're caught!
[08:57] ---
    Now, now, be silent.
[09:01] ---
    Is there something you need from us?
[09:04] ---
    Who are you?
[09:05] ---
    My name is Arcally.
[09:08] ---
    And who are these guys?
[09:11] ---
    They are people who gather with
    me because they share my ideals.
[09:16] ---
    What ideals?
[09:18] ---
    I am spreading the doctrine of love in Ohto.
[09:22] ---
    It states that all people are equal
    and entitled to live in peace.
[09:27] ---
    This may seem like an odd question,
[09:29] ---
    but a child claimed that he
    received a grimoire here.
[09:32] ---
    Do you know anything about it?
[09:34] ---
    I am afraid I do not.
[09:38] ---
    Perhaps you have the wrong place?
[09:41] ---
    I see...
[09:43] ---
    You mentioned a grimoire...
[09:45] ---
    Might you perhaps be DraColle Battlers?
[09:49] ---
    Yeah! That's right!
[09:52] ---
    Then, surely you are also participating in
    the Dragonia Battle Tournament tomorrow?
[09:58] ---
    That's right! We completely
    forgot about the tournament!
[10:01] ---
    Oh, dear, that will not do at all.
[10:04] ---
    Participants are registered for
    entry at the castle gate.
[10:07] ---
    I think you'll be fine if you
    get there before midnight.
[10:10] ---
    Yes.
[10:11] ---
    Thank you very much for your kindness.
[10:13] ---
    Then, we'd better hurry!
[10:15] ---
    Yeah!
[10:16] ---
    Okay, sorry to have bothered you!
[10:20] ---
    They display a youthful vibrancy
    rarely seen these days.
[10:23] ---
    Now...
[10:25] ---
    Let us pray for their sakes, as well.
[10:28] ---
    So, what was that strange grimoire, anyway?
[10:32] ---
    If we take part in the tournament,
    we may be able to find some clues.
[10:37] ---
    But more importantly...
[10:39] ---
    Where's the castle gate?
[10:42] ---
    What, you don't know either, Hiro?!
[10:45] ---
    W-Well, we just got here.
[10:48] ---
    Oh, right! You'd know, wouldn't you, Rei?
[10:50] ---
    The castle?
[10:51] ---
    Uh, well...
[10:55] ---
    It's that way! That way!
[10:57] ---
    Oh, you don't say!
[10:58] ---
    Thank you, ma'am!
[11:04] ---
    Sheesh, those guys are such a handful.
[11:07] ---
    But the tournament wouldn't be
    any fun if they weren't in it.
[11:10] ---
    It makes things easier for me, too!
[11:14] ---
    After many detours,
[11:15] ---
    Hiro and friends are set to take part in
    the Dragonia Battle Tournament,
[11:19] ---
    which will decide the strongest DraColle Battler.
[11:21] ---
    Just what will happen at the tournament?!
[11:24] ---
    Next episode: "Dragonia Battle Tournament!"
[11:27] ---
    Await it with guts!
