[01:31] ---
    I want... to make... my idol... debut!
[01:36] ---
    I-I am Naviko!
[01:38] ---
    In the last episode...
[01:39] ---
    Um, uh...
[01:41] ---
    S-Some stuff happened,
[01:43] ---
    and they heard about the
    Dragonia Battle Tournament,
[01:46] ---
    so they immediately decided to participate!
SIGN    Dragonia Battle Tournament!
[01:49] ---
    Dragonia Battle Tournament!
[01:54] ---
    There's so many people here!
[01:56] ---
    People come from all over Dragon Earth
    to watch the Dragonia Battle Tournament.
[02:02] ---
    It must truly live up to its reputation for
    determining the greatest DraColle Battler.
[02:07] ---
    It's got lots of tasty-looking food, too!
[02:11] ---
    Shin seems more interested in
    eating than in the tournament.
[02:14] ---
    What a novice!
[02:16] ---
    He's sure to be eliminated in the first round.
[02:19] ---
    He's so pompous...
[02:23] ---
    Only participants are allowed past this point.
[02:26] ---
    We'll be up in the stands.
[02:28] ---
    Good luck!
[02:30] ---
    Yeah!
[02:38] ---
    A-All these people are participants?!
[02:43] ---
    And only one of us can be the winner...
[02:46] ---
    Oh, man... I'm getting kinda nervous.
[02:49] ---
    What a novice!
[02:51] ---
    You'll wind up removed in the first round, too.
[02:55] ---
    Hey, look!
[02:56] ---
    Isn't that Gelmen?!
[02:57] ---
    Did he actually come into town?!
[02:59] ---
    I can't believe he left the forest
    to participate in the tournament.
[03:05] ---
    He is capable.
[03:09] ---
    Yeah, plus he's got the same smell as me.
[03:12] ---
    He was raised in the forest.
[03:17] ---
    He's like a wild bear.
[03:20] ---
    I don't want to go up against him.
[03:23] ---
    Me, neither.
[03:24] ---
    Really? The winner for five straight years?!
[03:28] ---
    Well, yes.
[03:30] ---
    Though not in a tournament as big
    as this Dragonia Battle Tournament.
[03:34] ---
    Amazing!
[03:36] ---
    I've never put all that much effort into it,
[03:39] ---
    yet for some reason I always end up winning.
[03:42] ---
    How to put it?
[03:43] ---
    I just have the knack!
[03:45] ---
    W-Wow...
[03:49] ---
    By the way, would you care to have
    dinner with me after the tournament?
[03:52] ---
    I-I appreciate the thought...
[03:54] ---
    Yuna!
[03:58] ---
    Oh, my, it's been a while.
[04:00] ---
    No, it hasn't!
[04:02] ---
    Surely you haven't forgotten
    what happened in Biliora!
[04:05] ---
    Nobody likes a guy who holds grudges.
[04:08] ---
    Do you know them?
[04:10] ---
    They're something like my fan club.
[04:12] ---
    Hey!
[04:13] ---
    That makes sense...
[04:15] ---
    It's important to mingle with your fans.
[04:17] ---
    I, myself, have five fan clubs back home.
[04:21] ---
    Well then, Yuna, don't forget
    about our dinner date!
[04:24] ---
    I never agreed to a date!
[04:27] ---
    Is he really that tough?
[04:29] ---
    I have to wonder.
[04:31] ---
    So you're in the tournament, too?
[04:33] ---
    Isn't it natural to strive to
    be the strongest Battler?
[04:36] ---
    Well, I wonder about that.
[04:38] ---
    All of your actions seem to
    have some ulterior motive.
[04:41] ---
    Wh-What are you saying?!
[04:43] ---
    Could you move aside a moment?
[04:48] ---
    Oh, dear! I can feel the heat of all your gazes!
[04:53] ---
    I believe she's the Green Pepper Gang's...
[04:55] ---
    Rubica!
[04:57] ---
    Dear me, you do look familiar.
[05:00] ---
    Why are you here?!
[05:02] ---
    What a foolish question.
[05:04] ---
    I'm here to win and have the king
    hear my request, obviously!
[05:08] ---
    Boy, am I starving!
[05:11] ---
    Huh?
[05:11] ---
    That's another familiar voice.
[05:13] ---
    Oh, great.
[05:15] ---
    If you say that, I'll just have
    to show you how "great" I am!
[05:18] ---
    We're the Green Pepper Gang that
    scares crying children silent!
[05:21] ---
    The great Meatmania!
[05:22] ---
    Zakko!
[05:24] ---
    And Koppu!
[05:25] ---
    Wow, that really takes me back!
[05:28] ---
    I thought you guys went to jail!
[05:31] ---
    Did you break out?!
[05:33] ---
    Don't be rude!
[05:35] ---
    Despite appearances, we and
    our boss were model prisoners!
[05:40] ---
    And thanks to that, we got released on parole!
[05:43] ---
    Boy, am I starving!
[05:45] ---
    Model prisoners?!
[05:47] ---
    He's eating a vegetable?
[05:48] ---
    Not meat?!
[05:50] ---
    Our boss is now a vegetarian!
[05:53] ---
    Mm, fresh!
[05:55] ---
    If you got released, then good for you.
[05:57] ---
    Yeah.
[05:58] ---
    Hold it!
[06:00] ---
    It's true that I have changed.
[06:02] ---
    I am now Meatmania, the veggie maniac!
[06:05] ---
    Which one...?
[06:06] ---
    But, we haven't forgotten
    about how you got us arrested!
[06:11] ---
    And I can't sit quietly by after you
    destroyed the Green Pepper Gang!
[06:18] ---
    Now is the moment we repay
    you for all you've done to us!
[06:23] ---
    I'll have you know, Rigack is here, too.
[06:27] ---
    Even Rigack?!
[06:29] ---
    Where?
[06:30] ---
    I believe he's...
[06:32] ---
    Oh! Around there!
[06:34] ---
    Where?
[06:35] ---
    Oh, there he is!
[06:36] ---
    Looks like he got a haircut.
[06:39] ---
    You've got really good eyesight...
[06:41] ---
    Get ready, you brats!
[06:49] ---
    Hold it right there!
[06:52] ---
    Non-tournament battles are forbidden here!
[06:55] ---
    Oh!
[06:55] ---
    That's right!
[06:57] ---
    I wasn't thinking.
[06:59] ---
    Drat! Very well!
[07:00] ---
    But if you're up against me in a Battle,
[07:02] ---
    I'll turn you into mincemeat!
[07:04] ---
    Just you wait!
[07:07] ---
    It appears just participating in
    the tournament won't end this.
[07:10] ---
    Now I'm even more fired up!
[07:14] ---
    Thanks for waiting, everyone!
[07:16] ---
    We will now open the tournament
    with a few words from His Majesty!
[07:21] ---
    Incidentally, I will be acting
    as master of ceremonies.
[07:24] ---
    I'm this year's...
[07:26] ---
    Miss Dragonia!
[07:28] ---
    Now, here is His Majesty!
[07:32] ---
    I have heard that the king himself
    is quite a strong DraColle Battler.
[07:38] ---
    Really?!
[07:39] ---
    Quiet, please!
[07:40] ---
    His Majesty is about to speak!
[07:51] ---
    Do your best, okay?
[07:53] ---
    Thank you very much!
    That was His Majesty's address!
[07:56] ---
    That was short!
[07:58] ---
    Simple, yet profound.
[08:00] ---
    Just what you'd expect of a king.
[08:03] ---
    He is capable.
[08:04] ---
    Seriously?
[08:06] ---
    We will now begin the first round!
[08:09] ---
    Our audience is anxiously expecting
    a frantic, fever-pitched battle
[08:14] ---
    that will require all the strength you possess!
[08:17] ---
    Yes!
[08:17] ---
    From this moment onward,
    everyone around you is your enemy!
[08:22] ---
    Shin! Rei!
[08:27] ---
    Let's do this!
[08:28] ---
    Yeah! I'm not gonna lose!
[08:30] ---
    I won't go easy on you just
    because you're my valets!
[08:33] ---
    This is a serious competition!
[08:35] ---
    Right, of course!
[08:36] ---
    Oh-ho, they're fired up...
[08:39] ---
    Now, for the first round...
[08:41] ---
    For a fun change of pace
    from the usual competition,
[08:44] ---
    we will be using special rules for this round!
[08:47] ---
    Special rules?
[08:49] ---
    In short, this round will be...
[08:52] ---
    a True or False Quiz!
[08:56] ---
    A quiz?!
[08:58] ---
    Hey!
[08:58] ---
    What does that have to do
    with DraColle Battlers?!
[09:01] ---
    This isn't a quiz show!
[09:04] ---
    Quiet, please!
[09:06] ---
    Let's see...
[09:08] ---
    "What a DraColle Battler needs most is
[09:10] ---
    wisdom, good judgment, and dumb luck.
[09:12] ---
    This is the most suitable method
    for testing these qualities.
[09:16] ---
    Those who are unhappy are welcome to leave."
[09:18] ---
    So it reads!
[09:21] ---
    Yep!
[09:23] ---
    Guess we have no choice.
[09:24] ---
    It looks like you all agree.
[09:26] ---
    Then, let's begin!
[09:28] ---
    True or False Quiz, question 1!
[09:30] ---
    Da-dum!
[09:31] ---
    Question: The first round is a True or False Quiz.
[09:34] ---
    True or false?
[09:36] ---
    Please move to the side with the
    screen displaying your answer!
[09:40] ---
    She's asking whether or not the
    first round is a True or False Quiz?
[09:43] ---
    Didn't she just say the first
    round is a True or False Quiz?
[09:47] ---
    Yeah, she did.
[09:49] ---
    Rei, you're going to the "False" side?!
[09:52] ---
    Of course.
[09:54] ---
    This is a psychological test designed to outwit us.
[09:57] ---
    Outwit?!
[09:59] ---
    You must consider that this is
    a DraColle Battle Tournament.
[10:02] ---
    There's no way it would involve a quiz.
[10:04] ---
    Getting fooled by that proves
    that you are still a novice!
[10:08] ---
    You and your tangled logic...
[10:10] ---
    Things like this depend on intuition!
[10:14] ---
    This way!
[10:17] ---
    What'll we do?
[10:18] ---
    Since Rei put it that way,
    I'm starting to think he's right.
[10:21] ---
    It can't be!
[10:23] ---
    She clearly said that the first round is a quiz!
[10:26] ---
    Th-That's true...
[10:28] ---
    Okay! Time's up!
[10:34] ---
    Huh?!
[10:36] ---
    There are way more on the "False" side!
[10:39] ---
    Now, I will announce the correct answer.
[10:42] ---
    The answer to question 1 is....
[10:49] ---
    "True"!
[10:50] ---
    Oh, dear!
[10:51] ---
    Of course I would be correct.
[10:54] ---
    Honestly, Hiro and Shin are such novices.
[10:57] ---
    Why else would they choose "True"?
[10:59] ---
    If they'd done like I said
    and chosen "False" as well,
[11:03] ---
    they wouldn't have to suffer the embarrassment
    of being eliminated in the first round!
[11:07] ---
    Isn't the answer obviously "False"?
[11:10] ---
    Indeed, it's "False"...
[11:13] ---
    Right?!
[11:14] ---
    Those who chose "False" are now eliminated!
[11:17] ---
    Unbelievably, Rei has been
    eliminated in the first round!
[11:20] ---
    Has his road to becoming a
    Dragon Master hit a dead end?!
[11:24] ---
    Next episode: "Farewell, Rei!"
[11:27] ---
    Await it with guts!
