    THE LANDING OF SOVEREIGN ROCK CASTLE
[01:54] ---
    We've been waiting for you, King Romos.
[01:57] ---
    This world summit
    is a wonderful idea, Princess Leona.
[02:04] ---
    That's...!
[02:08] ---
    King Romos, he is...
[02:12] ---
    He's a friend of Dai's now?
[02:14] ---
    King Romos...
[02:18] ---
    King Romos! This! The Crown of Champions!
[02:22] ---
    Can we make this into a weapon?!
    We're making an Orichalcum sword!
[02:29] ---
    That is already yours.
[02:31] ---
    Why would I oppose to remaking it
    into a weapon for world peace?
[02:37] ---
    Thank you, Your Majesty!
[02:40] ---
    Bengarna's ship is entering port!
[02:54] ---
    That's huge!
[02:55] ---
    Such a large ship...
[03:15] ---
    Princess Leona, I've come
    answering your summons.
[03:20] ---
    King Bengarna, we specifically
    asked of you to be discreet.
[03:24] ---
    Using such a warship is...
[03:27] ---
    And what are those weapons?
[03:29] ---
    They're tanks, King Romos.
[03:31] ---
    The pride of my country,
    the elite Tank Brigade.
[03:34] ---
    Isn't that right, Akhim?
[03:36] ---
    Sir! The Bengarna Tank Brigade takes pride
    in being the world's strongest army!
[03:42] ---
    It's all about weapons now. Swords
    and magic are nothing against a cannon.
[03:48] ---
    This world summit is a war council on how
    my army will attack the Dark Army, right?
[03:54] ---
    So where's it being held?
[03:58] ---
    Please follow me.
[04:02] ---
    I guess not every king is very admirable.
[04:06] ---
    Crocodine,
    I know this is a bad time, but we...
[04:10] ---
    Don't worry and go. Papnica still has me.
[04:15] ---
    I guess it also has them, too.
[04:19] ---
    Okay, Popp.
[04:20] ---
    Hold it! Let me rest a little!
[04:32] ---
    Wow! What do my eyes see,
    but Papnica Kingdom!
[04:36] ---
    If we're landing there,
    I'd have preferred a more impressive boat.
[04:41] ---
    I need to look the part of a Hero.
[04:44] ---
    What are you saying?!
[04:45] ---
    We decided to change our ways and
    try to be a real Hero's party, didn't we?!
[04:51] ---
    Sure.
[04:52] ---
    Papnica's putting up a good fight with
    the Dark Army, so it should work out.
[04:58] ---
    We can defeat the Dark Army
    and become real heroes!
[05:01] ---
    If we stick with them and fight a bit,
    we should get some money and experience.
[05:07] ---
    Let's go to Papnica!
[05:09] ---
    No objection!
[05:13] ---
    Huh?
[05:14] ---
    Huh?!
[05:18] ---
    What's that?
[05:31] ---
    L-Landing... cancelled!
[05:35] ---
    No objection!
[05:51] ---
    How goes the Hero's Sword?
[05:53] ---
    Same as before.
[05:55] ---
    He tossed the Crown in the furnace
    and is still staring at Dai's hand.
[06:00] ---
    It's already been half a day.
[06:01] ---
    Who knows what he's doing?
[06:14] ---
    Um, Lon Beruk...
[06:17] ---
    Long ago, people and weapons were one.
[06:21] ---
    People strove to match up
    to powerful weapons.
[06:24] ---
    People were strong,
    and so weapons evolved.
[06:28] ---
    Now they're all worthless.
[06:31] ---
    But you...
[06:33] ---
    You will show me the most powerful being
    paired with the most powerful weapon.
[06:40] ---
    Thank you!
[06:43] ---
    Jank, give me a hand.
    This will be a big job.
[06:47] ---
    At last!
[06:55] ---
    He's started!
[07:00] ---
    Dad?!
[07:02] ---
    Lon's started forging the sword
    like he's possessed.
[07:06] ---
    I'll help him,
    so don't break his concentration.
[07:10] ---
    Apparently, this sword is a new life
    being created specifically for Dai.
[07:15] ---
    So it won't be like forging
    an ordinary weapon.
[07:19] ---
    I see. That's why he was studying
    the hands that would wield it.
[07:25] ---
    They say a true weapon
    chooses its wielder.
[07:28] ---
    Yes.
[07:29] ---
    Okay, Dad. You've got this.
[07:32] ---
    I don't need you to tell me that!
[07:37] ---
    What's wrong, miss?
[07:39] ---
    Merle?!
[07:40] ---
    I see it! I see it!
[07:42] ---
    A giant shadow!
[07:45] ---
    A terrifying... A terrifying power!
[07:49] ---
    At this rate, Papnica will fall!
[08:03] ---
    What?
[08:05] ---
    Nothing.
[08:08] ---
    King Bengarna, as we've said,
    we must gather the world's forces as one
[08:14] ---
    to defeat the Dark Army.
[08:16] ---
    That's why we've all gathered here.
[08:19] ---
    And my army will lead.
[08:22] ---
    I'm saying to relax and leave it to me.
[08:24] ---
    King Bengarna,
[08:26] ---
    Ringaia was a powerful country
    called the "Fortress Kingdom,"
[08:30] ---
    yet we fell before the Dragon Legion
    of the Dark Army in one week.
[08:36] ---
    So I've heard.
[08:38] ---
    Their power can only be understood
    by those who fought them.
[08:42] ---
    My apologies,
    but your country still exists
[08:45] ---
    only because the enemy has not yet
    brought in their full force.
[08:51] ---
    You insult me, General Bowson!
[08:53] ---
    Do you not know the power of my army,
    the world's greatest army?!
[09:04] ---
    This is going nowhere. Even after
    we finally managed to hold this summit...

[09:11] ---
    Observe!
    That cutting-edge, top-class warship!
[09:16] ---
    That unstoppable Tank Brigade!
[09:19] ---
    No matter what forces
    the Dark Army may have, they can't...
[09:33] ---
    What is that?!
[09:40] ---
    That's...
[09:42] ---
    impossible!
[09:53] ---
    What is that thing?!
[09:55] ---
    I don't know!
    I don't know, but I do know this!
[10:00] ---
    Papnica is finished!
[10:03] ---
    That face! Sovereign Rock Castle?!
[10:06] ---
    So Hyunckel's hypothesis was right!
[10:09] ---
    Sovereign Rock Castle itself
    is a walking fortress! A giant Overfiend!

[10:15] ---
    That said...
[10:17] ---
    I can't believe how big it is!
[10:20] ---
    This is bad!
[10:21] ---
    A giant! A giant is attacking!
[10:24] ---
    Wait! How did something that big
    get so close without you noticing?!
[10:28] ---
    Well, there was a thick mist
    over the ocean!
[10:32] ---
    A mist?! Did you say a mist?!
[10:35] ---
    Could it be...?!
[10:37] ---
    Mystvearn!
[10:42] ---
    Bengarna's ship.
[10:44] ---
    Just as Hadlar suspected.
[10:47] ---
    The world leaders
    are gathered here in Papnica.
[10:51] ---
    Pathetic ants who defy King Vearn.
[10:55] ---
    I'll smoke them out and crush them.
[11:21] ---
    FULLHEAL
    HEALING-TYPE SPELL
[11:25] ---
    DARK PUPPETRY AURA HAND
[11:32] ---
    What a creature!
[11:34] ---
    Unbelievable!
    It's beyond human comprehension!
[11:38] ---
    It must be here to wipe us all out.
[11:42] ---
    They knew about this meeting.
[11:47] ---
    Akhim! Take command of the Tank Brigade!
[11:50] ---
    Show them the true power
    of the Bengarna Army!
[11:55] ---
    Sir! As you command!
[11:58] ---
    Don't be so reckless, King Bengarna!
    It destroyed a warship with one attack!
[12:04] ---
    My tanks! My tanks won't lose!
[12:07] ---
    They'll blow that lump of rock to pieces!
[12:11] ---
    Follow me!
[12:15] ---
    Wait!
[12:16] ---
    That's not just a giant made of rocks!
[12:19] ---
    It's Sovereign Rock Castle!
    The main fortress of the Dark Army!
[12:23] ---
    To face it head-on
    will only mean pointless death!
[12:28] ---
    His Majesty has ordered me
    to display Bengarna Army's true power.
[12:32] ---
    Win or lose, we must show our courage
    to lead the rest of the world!
[12:39] ---
    Out of the way!
[12:43] ---
    He seemed unpleasant at first,
    but he has his own loyalties.

[12:49] ---
    I sense a warrior in him.
    I can't let him die.

[12:53] ---
    Crocodine!
[12:56] ---
    Old man!
[12:57] ---
    Sorry for the wait! It's finally complete!
[13:01] ---
    Oh! That's my Vortex Axe!
[13:04] ---
    The life of legendary weapons,
    the Magic Jewel was undamaged.
[13:09] ---
    So I rebuilt it using Papnican metals!
[13:13] ---
    I call it Vortex Axe Returns Mark II!
[13:18] ---
    Thanks! This'll give me
    the strength of a hundred!
[13:21] ---
    No, the strength of a thousand!
[13:24] ---
    Thanks, old man!
[13:26] ---
    We're counting on you!
    I'll join you in a bit!
[13:37] ---
    It's no good. I can't use
    a crystal ball like Grandmother can.
[13:42] ---
    That was enough.
    All we needed was a glimpse.
[13:45] ---
    Something big is here.
[13:50] ---
    Let's go back to Papnica!
[13:51] ---
    Stop!
[13:55] ---
    Have you forgotten?!
    This sword is being made for you!
[13:59] ---
    It's being given life for you!
[14:03] ---
    It's not a normal weapon! It has a soul!
[14:09] ---
    A sword with a soul?
[14:12] ---
    When it answers your soul
    and accepts you as its wielder,
[14:17] ---
    it will unleash
    the world's greatest power!
[14:21] ---
    That's why you must
    bear witness to its birth!
[14:26] ---
    We'll come back for it.
    Can't you make it in the meantime?
[14:29] ---
    A blade requires
    the voice of its wielder's soul!
[14:34] ---
    Without that voice, this will become
    just another weapon!
[14:43] ---
    Lon Beruk is pouring his life into this.
[14:46] ---
    It must take godly strength beyond our
    understanding to create this sword.
[14:53] ---
    He's using a material like Orichalcum.
[14:56] ---
    It's not a normal forging.
[14:58] ---
    But at this rate, Papnica...
[15:02] ---
    Okay. Dai, you stay here
    and complete your sword.
[15:09] ---
    Meanwhile, we'll hold off the Dark Army!
[15:12] ---
    We have to work together
    to defeat an enemy of that size!
[15:17] ---
    That's why you have to stay here, Dai.
[15:21] ---
    They're trying to kill
    all the world leaders at once.
[15:25] ---
    We need your Hero's Sword now
    more than ever!
[15:29] ---
    Popp...
[15:31] ---
    Or do you think we can't even
    buy you some time?
[15:35] ---
    After all we've been through,
    you can't possibly think that.
[15:38] ---
    Leave it to us.
[15:40] ---
    Yes.
[15:43] ---
    Everyone!
[15:44] ---
    So that's the deal!
    Leave things to us for now!
[15:54] ---
    Prepare to fire!
[15:57] ---
    Fools.
[16:02] ---
    Fire!
[16:12] ---
    Continue firing!
[16:16] ---
    Amazing!
[16:19] ---
    Weigh anchor and keep firing!
[16:21] ---
    Yes, sir!
[16:33] ---
    That was pretty cool what I said back there.
[16:37] ---
    I can't back down now having said all that.
[16:40] ---
    I really might get killed this time
    fighting something that big.

[16:46] ---
    Dammit!
[16:48] ---
    What's with him?
[16:50] ---
    He's freaking out, Miss Maam.
    Are you sure about him?
[16:53] ---
    Honestly.
[16:55] ---
    He's fine.
[16:57] ---
    Popp can seem unreliable at first,
    but he always overcomes pain and fear.
[17:04] ---
    That's how he's always been.
[17:05] ---
    Yes.
[17:08] ---
    Okay! No point in chickening out!
    Take the bull by the horns!
[17:13] ---
    Okay! Let's all go!
[17:15] ---
    Right!
[17:18] ---
    Dad, try to be useful to Lon Beruk!
[17:21] ---
    Shut up! And you better not
    get in everybody's way!
[17:25] ---
    Show 'em what you're made of!
[17:32] ---
    Bye!
[17:33] ---
    I'm off!
[17:41] ---
    Zoom!
[17:47] ---
    Honey...
[17:49] ---
    Stein...
[17:50] ---
    Popp's gone away again, hasn't he?
[17:53] ---
    Yeah.
[17:54] ---
    But I've never seen Popp
    with such a serious look in his eyes.
[18:00] ---
    He's gone and grown up all of a sudden.
[18:03] ---
    As a kid he used to always be
    such a wimp and a quitter.
[18:09] ---
    When he left home,
    we were angry at Master Avan, but...
[18:15] ---
    We should thank him...
[18:17] ---
    for making our boy into a man.
[18:26] ---
    See that?! See that?!
    The force of the invincible Bengarna Army!
[18:42] ---
    We can win this, my friends!
[18:46] ---
    Everyone! Get back!
[18:52] ---
    What the...?!
[18:53] ---
    Popp!
[18:54] ---
    Princess, where's the giant?!
[18:56] ---
    The bay! How did you know?!
[18:59] ---
    Merle showed us! So we hurried back!
[19:02] ---
    Where's Dai?! I thought he was with you!
[19:05] ---
    He's making the world's strongest sword!
[19:09] ---
    It'll be ready soon!
[19:11] ---
    So we came back first
    to try to hold them off!
[19:18] ---
    Forget your "world's strongest sword!"
[19:20] ---
    Who'd need that?! Look!
[19:23] ---
    My Bengarna Tank Brigade
    will soon blow that giant to pieces!
[19:30] ---
    No. It's not working.
[19:33] ---
    What?! Don't be ridiculous!
[19:35] ---
    Can't you see it's breaking apart,
    dropping pieces of rock everywhere?!
[19:41] ---
    But in that smoke,
    its energy hasn't waned at all.
[19:46] ---
    In fact...
[19:48] ---
    Cease fire!
[19:50] ---
    Well?
[19:52] ---
    There should be nothing left.
[20:04] ---
    Look out!
[20:14] ---
    Abandon ship!
[20:24] ---
    You?!
[20:39] ---
    A castle?!
[20:52] ---
    You fools.
[20:55] ---
    You've revealed it by yourselves.
[20:59] ---
    Sovereign Rock Castle's true form.
[21:07] ---
    Princess of Papnica, Leona...
[21:10] ---
    and other world leaders.
[21:14] ---
    I serve the great Dark King Vearn.
[21:19] ---
    I am Shadow Legion Commander Mystvearn.
[21:22] ---
    Shadow Legion Commander Mystvearn...
[21:26] ---
    So it really was him.
[21:29] ---
    I bring you an order.
[21:32] ---
    What's his deal?!
[21:33] ---
    Is he going to threaten us,
    saying come out or die?!
[21:39] ---
    Die.
[21:43] ---
    You are all worthless.
[21:47] ---
    You are vermin to Dark King Vearn.
[21:51] ---
    Surrender will not be allowed.
[21:53] ---
    Die.
[21:55] ---
    Begone from this world,
    along with this entire country!
[22:04] ---
    Even if you face the devil
    With logic on your side

[22:04] ---
    tatoe akuma ni seiron kazashite

[22:07] ---
    It may just be a rationalization

    I heard a voice like an angel's whisper
[22:19] ---
    tenshi no sasayaki nimo nita

[22:22] ---
    Maybe it was an imposter's illusion
    It still rang in my ears

[22:22] ---
    hatamata petenshi no mayakashi

[22:26] ---
    Exposed to love and sorrow

[22:30] ---
    On the path strewn with pride
[22:30] ---
    hokori mamire michi no tochu

    Fleeting moments of cowardice

    The SOS I held back

    nomikonda SOS

    I clenched my trembling fist

    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

    As embers that keep me burning
[22:59] ---
