POPP'S RESOLVE
**[01:53] ---**
What's happening to him?!
**[01:56] ---**
Baran's body...
**[01:58] ---**
...Is changing!
**[02:08] ---**
Is this the true form of a Dragon Knight?!
**[02:14] ---**
Indeed.
**[02:15] ---**
The combined power of Dragon,
Darkling, and human.
**[02:18] ---**
The Ultimate Combat Form
of the Dragon Knight.
**[02:22] ---**
That is this form.
**[02:25] ---**
The form known as the Dragonoid!
**[02:29] ---**
The Dragonoid?!
**[02:31] ---**
Whoa! What unbelievable pressure!
**[02:36] ---**
No one's been this imposing before!
**[02:38] ---**
Not even Hadlar!
**[02:40] ---**
Popp, get into the castle!
**[02:43] ---**
No way! I'm fighting, too!
**[02:46] ---**
Don't be stupid!
You can sense it, can't you?!
**[02:50] ---**
Baran's overwhelming Aura!
**[02:52] ---**
Besides, you're out of Magic Power!
**[02:57] ---**
You're useless here!
**[02:58] ---**
Hey!
**[02:59] ---**
Popp! Don't be stubborn!
**[03:02] ---**
I'll support these two!
**[03:04] ---**
Look after Dai!
**[03:06] ---**
If anything happens to us,
take Dai and run as far as possible!
**[03:15] ---**
Dammit! Fine then!
**[03:18] ---**
Don't any of you die!
**[03:23] ---**
Look out!
**[03:30] ---**
Popp!
**[03:31] ---**
You dare attack the wounded
from behind?! How could you?!
**[03:35] ---**
Once I take Dragonoid form,
**[03:38] ---**
I become intent only on wiping out
any enemy in sight, like a Demon Beast.
**[03:43] ---**
This power is too strong
for me to hold back.
**[03:49] ---**
Wounded or whelp,
I cannot spare any mercy.
**[03:54] ---**
But can you blame me?!
**[03:57] ---**
You pried into the scar on my heart.
**[04:01] ---**
This is your own fault!
**[04:15] ---**
Curse you!
**[04:23] ---**
Crocodine!
**[04:25] ---**
Woosh!
**[04:27] ---**
D-Dammit!
**[04:32] ---**
He's going to wipe us out at this rate!
**[04:38] ---**
We can't beat him!
Even if we were at our best!
**[04:44] ---**
His power is on a whole different level!
**[04:47] ---**
He's truly a super being with the power
of a Dragon and Magic Power of a Darkling!
**[04:54] ---**
You've seen nothing of my Magic Power yet!
**[05:02] ---**
I'll erase you all in an instant...
**[05:05] ---**
with the purification spell
only usable in this form!
**[05:10] ---**
With Doruora!
**[05:12] ---**
W-We have to run!
**[05:13] ---**
It's no good! We can't move!
**[05:16] ---**
Stop, Baran! Don't give yourself
over to any more violence!
**[05:20] ---**
Your words mean nothing now.
**[05:24] ---**
Once I take the form of the Dragonoid...
**[05:27] ---**
I cannot turn back until you are all dead!
**[05:31] ---**
Begone!
**[05:47] ---**
Dino!
**[05:50] ---**
Dai!
**[06:10] ---**
No!
**[06:17] ---**
What was that dream?
**[06:20] ---**
No, it was far more vivid than a dream.
**[06:24] ---**
A vision?!
**[06:27] ---**
Dai... Popp...
**[06:33] ---**
No!
**[06:35] ---**
We can't let Dai and Baran meet!
**[06:40] ---**
Dai, run! Get in the castle!
**[06:45] ---**
Hey, Dai!
**[06:56] ---**
Are you the one who called me?
**[06:59] ---**
I am.
**[07:01] ---**
Who are you?
**[07:04] ---**
I am your father.
**[07:08] ---**
But... you don't look like me at all.
**[07:13] ---**
You look... like a monster.
**[07:18] ---**
Indeed, this form is not human.
**[07:23] ---**
It seems you take after your mother more.
**[07:27] ---**
I doubt you can become a Dragonoid.
**[07:30] ---**
But...
**[07:36] ---**
Remove that cloth.
**[07:52] ---**
I can tell... I can tell!
You're not lying!
**[07:56] ---**
That crest on your forehead is proof.
It's the unspoken bond between us.
**[08:03] ---**
While our forms are different,
we are father and son.
**[08:08] ---**
I am your father.
**[08:15] ---**
My father...
**[08:24] ---**
Popp!
**[08:34] ---**
Move!
**[08:36] ---**
What can a piece of trash like you do?!
**[08:41] ---**
Nothing! I know that already!
**[08:44] ---**
But I have to fight!
**[08:48] ---**
I'm the only one left who can even stand!
**[08:52] ---**
Don't, Popp! Don't challenge Baran!
**[08:55] ---**
That's right.
**[08:57] ---**
I'll kill you!
**[09:00] ---**
If you attack me in this form,
I will brutally respond,
**[09:06] ---**
killing you and everyone here
except for Dino,
**[09:11] ---**
no matter how weak that attack may be.
**[09:16] ---**
Meeting Dino has brought out my humanity,
but this is your last chance.
**[09:23] ---**
Hand Dino over peacefully.
**[09:27] ---**
You're in the way, mister.
**[09:30] ---**
Huh?
**[09:31] ---**
I finally met my father.
**[09:36] ---**
Dai...
**[09:37] ---**
What?
**[09:39] ---**
You can't have him! Father or not!
**[09:42] ---**
I'll never let you have our Dai!
**[09:47] ---**
"Our Dai"?
**[09:49] ---**
That's right!
Without Dai, Princess Leona would be dead!
**[09:53] ---**
If they hadn't fought Dai, Crocodine
and Hyunckel would still be evil!
**[09:58] ---**
And... And me...
**[10:02] ---**
If I hadn't met Dai,
I'd still be running away.
**[10:06] ---**
I'd be a brown-noser.
All talk and useless!
**[10:10] ---**
There's no doubt I'd be worthless!
**[10:13] ---**
Meeting Dai changed all of our fates!
**[10:17] ---**
It's thanks to Dai that we came this far!
**[10:22] ---**
Dai is the one who lifts us up!
**[10:25] ---**
For Dai to become the enemy of humans...
**[10:29] ---**
For Dai to disappear from our lives...
**[10:33] ---**
I'd rather die than let that happen!
**[10:39] ---**
Then you shall die.
**[10:48] ---**
It-It's no good!
He has no humanity left in him!
**[10:53] ---**
Dammit!
**[10:56] ---**
Popp!
**[11:00] ---**
*What do I do? I've got no Magic Power
or powerful weapons or items!*
**[11:05] ---**
*All I can do is punch him!*
**[11:09] ---**
*Isn't there anything I can do?!
Think! Think!*
**[11:14] ---**
*If I don't act,
he's going to take Dai away!*
**[11:18] ---**
*Master... What would you do, Master Avan?*
**[11:22] ---**
*How would you fight
at a time like this, Master?*
**[11:25] ---**
*Master!*
**[11:30] ---**
*That's right...*
**[11:31] ---**
*There's still one thing I can do!*
**[11:37] ---**
CRACKLE
ICE-TYPE SPELL
**[11:42] ---**
FULLHEAL
HEAL-TYPE SPELL
**[11:45] ---**
*That's right...*
**[11:47] ---**
*There's still one thing I can do!*
**[11:50] ---**
*But if I do that...*
**[11:57] ---**
Don't worry.
**[11:59] ---**
I'll end this real quick.
**[12:02] ---**
Huh?
**[12:04] ---**
Hold on to that bandana, will you?
**[12:07] ---**
I've had it since I was five.
It's my trademark.
**[12:12] ---**
Me? Why?
**[12:14] ---**
Listen! Just don't lose it!
**[12:21] ---**
H-He's fighting bare-handed?!
**[12:24] ---**
Are you insane, Popp?!
**[12:26] ---**
*I can't watch
such a pathetic suicide attack.*
**[12:30] ---**
*I'll shatter him with one blow!*
**[12:37] ---**
Th-That's...!
**[12:40] ---**
They won't come out!
**[12:43] ---**
His grip is just a weak Mage's!
**[12:47] ---**
Obviously!
**[12:48] ---**
I've got all my life energy
focused in my fingertips!
**[12:53] ---**
I can't just let you pull them out!
**[12:55] ---**
You're not...!
**[12:57] ---**
I knew it! That's...
**[13:00] ---**
Megante!
**[13:01] ---**
If you use Megante, you're sure to die!
**[13:05] ---**
I know! If I'm unlucky,
I'll be blown to pieces with nothing left!
**[13:10] ---**
Just like my master was!
**[13:13] ---**
Stop! This is crazy!
**[13:16] ---**
I idolized Master Avan, but this was
one trick I never hoped to copy!
**[13:21] ---**
You don't know if it'll work on Baran!
**[13:24] ---**
Oh it'll work.
**[13:26] ---**
The Draconic Aura may be a mighty shield,
**[13:29] ---**
but it can be pierced
by even greater energy!
**[13:33] ---**
That's what Baran said himself!
**[13:36] ---**
He's taken that much into account?
**[13:39] ---**
Plus, I get to die for Dai!
To die for the Hero!
**[13:43] ---**
Basically, I get to die
for the future of all humans!
**[13:49] ---**
Who could ask for a better reason to die?!
**[13:52] ---**
Don't! Please, Popp!
**[13:54] ---**
Don't! Don't do it, Popp!
**[14:01] ---**
*This...*
**[14:03] ---**
*This has happened before!*
**[14:07] ---**
*I get the feeling...
Something really, really sad...*
**[14:12] ---**
*I have to... I have to do something!*
**[14:15] ---**
*I have to do something, but...!*
**[14:21] ---**
He's trying to rip his arm off!
**[14:29] ---**
Leona...
**[14:31] ---**
Hyunckel...
**[14:33] ---**
Crocodine...
**[14:36] ---**
Everyone...
**[14:38] ---**
I leave the rest to you.
**[14:41] ---**
Popp!
**[14:42] ---**
Make something up for Maam, will you?
**[14:44] ---**
Popp!
**[14:53] ---**
Dai.
**[15:04] ---**
Dai...
**[15:10] ---**
If you still have that dumb look
on your face when I die...
**[15:15] ---**
I'll be pissed!
**[15:21] ---**
See you, Dai.
**[15:23] ---**
We've gone through a lot...
**[15:25] ---**
It's been fun.
**[15:28] ---**
But...
**[15:38] ---**
*my adventure... ends here.*
**[15:49] ---**
Megante!
**[15:57] ---**
Popp!
**[16:04] ---**
No!
**[16:11] ---**
Y-You idiot!
**[16:15] ---**
I remember!
**[16:16] ---**
I remember it all, Popp!
**[16:19] ---**
Because I've been so pathetic...
**[16:22] ---**
you...
**[16:24] ---**
you...
**[16:26] ---**
Popp, I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[16:30] ---**
Dai!
**[16:31] ---**
Popp!
**[16:36] ---**
Has his memory returned?!
**[16:38] ---**
But the price was all too high!
**[17:10] ---**
What?!
**[17:18] ---**
N-No! Even after Popp sacrificed himself!
**[17:22] ---**
Does even Megante have no effect on him?!
**[17:26] ---**
No. Even I would
take damage from Megante.
**[17:31] ---**
But, his lack of experience saved me.
**[17:35] ---**
Just as he channeled all of
his life energy and detonated it,
**[17:41] ---**
he let his guard down, weakening his grip.
**[17:45] ---**
I was able to fly up and shake him off.
**[17:50] ---**
Damn it all!
**[17:58] ---**
A meaningless death.
**[18:01] ---**
C-Curse you!
**[18:03] ---**
Baran, why you...!
**[18:07] ---**
Gomechan!
**[18:11] ---**
Gomechan, don't! Stop!
**[18:22] ---**
Begone!
**[18:33] ---**
Enough!
**[18:35] ---**
No more!
**[18:38] ---**
Stop hurting my friends!
**[18:41] ---**
Dino...
**[18:42] ---**
It seems you really have
regained your memories.
**[18:47] ---**
I thought I completely erased them.
It's unbelievable.
**[18:51] ---**
If you really are my dad,
why are you doing this?!
**[18:55] ---**
Why take my memories
and hurt and kill my friends?!
**[18:59] ---**
Silence!
**[19:00] ---**
I will wipe out the humans
and their allies!
**[19:03] ---**
If you are my son, you will obey me!
**[19:07] ---**
No!
**[19:10] ---**
You're right that sometimes
humans can be cruel.
**[19:14] ---**
They can be selfish, they bully,
and they can discriminate.
**[19:20] ---**
But some of them aren't like that.
**[19:23] ---**
They can be cowardly, but they
try their best to do what's right.
**[19:30] ---**
That's...
**[19:32] ---**
That's who Popp was!
**[19:41] ---**
He's doing it again!
**[19:47] ---**
There's no reason to remember such trash!
**[19:51] ---**
I'll erase your memories again!
This time, completely!
**[19:56] ---**
He's a monster!
**[19:57] ---**
Now forget everything, Dino!
And become my true son!
**[20:03] ---**
*No! I...*
**[20:05] ---**
*I won't forget Popp ever again!*
**[20:10] ---**
*I'll never forget him!*
**[20:12] ---**
It's just like last time!
**[20:14] ---**
Can we do nothing?!
**[20:21] ---**
*Popp sacrificed himself and fought...*
**[20:24] ---**
*and I can't do anything!*
**[20:26] ---**
*Please, gods!*
**[20:32] ---**
God of Dragons! Lend us your strength!
**[20:37] ---**
Don't resist!
Your whole mind could be wiped!
**[20:41] ---**
*I won't give in!*
**[20:43] ---**
*I'm me!*
**[20:46] ---**
*I'm Dai, the Hero!*
**[20:51] ---**
You still resist your father?! You fool!
**[20:56] ---**
You're not...
**[20:58] ---**
You're not...
**[21:01] ---**
You're not my dad!
**[21:12] ---**
*What?!*
**[21:13] ---**
*He struck me while I was shielded
by my Draconic Aura?!*
**[21:22] ---**
What?!
**[21:28] ---**
Dai's crest is on his fist?!
**[21:31] ---**
*What?! Impossible! This can't be!*
**[21:34] ---**
*In thousands of years
of Dragon Knight history*
**[21:38] ---**
*for the light of the crest to appear
anywhere other than the forehead...*
**[21:43] ---**
*It's never happened before!*
**[21:46] ---**
*Could it be...?!*
**[21:49] ---**
*The human spirit?!*
**[21:51] ---**
*Is this Soala's will?!*
**[22:04] ---**
*Even if you face the devil
With logic on your side*
**[22:04] ---**
*tatoe akuma ni seiron kazashite
mukatte mitemo*
**[22:07] ---**
*It may just be a rationalization*
**[22:07] ---**
*sore wa akumade seitouka
sashite chigai wa naikamo*
**[22:11] ---**
*Even now, even now I waver*
**[22:11] ---**
*ima mo ima mo yureteiru kedo*
**[22:15] ---**
*How far will we go?*
**[22:15] ---**
*bokura wa dokomade yukuno*
**[22:19] ---**
*I heard a voice like an angel's whisper*
**[22:19] ---**
*tenshi no sasayaki nimo nita
koe ga kikoeta*
**[22:22] ---**
*Maybe it was an imposter's illusion
It still rang in my ears*
**[22:22] ---**
*hatamata petenshi no mayakashi
hitokiwa mimi ni hibiiteita*
**[22:26] ---**
*Exposed to love and sorrow*
**[22:26] ---**
*ai ni hiai ni sarasare nagara*
**[22:30] ---**
*On the path strewn with pride*
**[22:30] ---**
*hokori mamire michi no tochu*
**[22:36] ---**
*Fleeting moments of cowardice*
**[22:36] ---**
*kiete wa ukabu touhikou*
**[22:40] ---**
*The SOS I held back*
**[22:40] ---**
*nomikonda SOS*
**[22:44] ---**
*I clenched my trembling fist*
**[22:44] ---**
*furueru te wo nigirishimeta*
**[22:48] ---**
*That single little promise*
**[22:48] ---**
*tatta hitotsu no chiisana yakusoku ga*
**[22:53] ---**
*Those trivial little memories*
**[22:53] ---**
*honno sasaina omoidetachi ga*
**[22:57] ---**
*They're still in my heart*
**[22:57] ---**
*itsumade tattemo kono mune wo*
**[22:59] ---**
*As embers that keep me burning*
**[22:59] ---**
*kogashi tsuzukeru tomoshibi ni naru*
**[23:04] ---**
*A single transparent beam of light*
**[23:04] ---**
*tada hitosuji no toumei na hikari ga*
**[23:08] ---**
*Lights the way before me*
**[23:08] ---**
*me no mae wo terashite yuku*
**[23:11] ---**
*There is little that I can do*
**[23:11] ---**
*boku ni dekiru koto wa ikutsu mo naisa*
**[23:16] ---**
*Just keep on to the future
I managed to grasp through my faith*
**[23:16] ---**
*shinjinuita saki ni te ni shita mirai wo
susunde yuke*
**[23:34] ---**
*With the Dragon Crest on his fist,
Dai unleashes his anger at Baran.*
**[23:39] ---**
*But Baran's flames of rage
are stoked by his son's retaliation.*
**[23:44] ---**
*Teran Kingdom trembles
as the Dragon Knights clash.*
**[23:48] ---**
*The greatest battle in the world
begins now!*
