[00:01] ---
    Recently, on Fairy Tail...
[00:03] ---
    At the end of the fierce battle on
    Tenroujima, we somehow returned home alive
[00:07] ---
    thanks to being put in suspended
    animation by the first master.
[00:10] ---
    Except seven years had
    passed while we were gone!
[00:14] ---
    So what happened to our
    guild why we were gone?
[00:18] ---
    Well, it seems a lot happened, and
    there's a lot we still don't know
[00:22] ---
    about this world that's seven
    years past the one we left.
[02:00] ---
    Three months from now, the
    major event that decides
[02:02] ---
    the number one guild in Fiore will be held:
[02:05] ---
    The Grand Magic Games!
[02:07] ---
    It's a festival in which people compete
    in various events using magic.
[02:14] ---
    During the seven years we were gone,
[02:15] ---
    Fairy Tail became the weakest
    guild in the kingdom of Fiore,
[02:18] ---
    so to get back to number one, we decided
    to participate in the Grand Magic Games.
[02:26] ---
    But those of us in the Tenrou
    group have a seven-year "blank",
[02:30] ---
    so we may not be able to keep up with
    the fighting styles of this age.
[02:37] ---
    There are three months until the festival,
[02:39] ---
    so we're going to have a
    training camp at the beach!
[02:50] ---
    Song of the Stars!
[03:03] ---
    People! We didn't come here to have fun!
[03:06] ---
    That's right!
[03:07] ---
    You tell us that, dressed like that?
[03:11] ---
    Of course, we know that.
[03:13] ---
    The key is variation.
[03:15] ---
    Play hard, eat a lot, sleep a lot!
[03:19] ---
    You're leaving out training, the
    most important point of all!
[03:21] ---
    By the time this training camp is over...
[03:24] ---
    ...you'll at least be able to beat us.
[03:28] ---
    The sea!
[03:30] ---
    Alright!
[03:31] ---
    Swimming race!
[03:33] ---
    Sand castle building contest!
[03:36] ---
    Eating contest!
[03:37] ---
    Suntan contest!
[03:41] ---
    What do you say we go back
    to the inn and take a nap?
[03:44] ---
    They enjoyed the hell out of this...
[03:47] ---
    Well, I guess we can cut them
    some slack on the first day.
[03:50] ---
    A tanned Gray is dreamy, too...
[03:54] ---
    Um...
[03:56] ---
    What's this word?
[04:01] ---
    Meanwhile, the other members of Fairy Tail
    began their training in different areas.
[04:21] ---
    Natsu really is amazing.
[04:23] ---
    Even though the water pressure
    undersea is extremely heavy,
[04:26] ---
    he can use Roar of the Fire Dragon.
[04:29] ---
    That was great, Natsu!
[04:30] ---
    Nah, not yet. That ain't
    enough to do the job.
[04:34] ---
    I gotta be able to increase
    my power even more!
[04:43] ---
    I can't let myself lose to him...
[04:54] ---
    In my case, I want to do
    something about my weakness,
[04:59] ---
    my lack of magic power stamina!
[05:01] ---
    For that, you need to build
    up your spiritual strength
[05:04] ---
    and grow the depth
     of the container of your magic.
[05:10] ---
    Feel the land... the wind...
    energy... with your flesh.
[05:17] ---
    Then breathe, as if you're
    becoming one with nature.
[05:34] ---
    That's the way, Lucy-sama. Continue.
[05:41] ---
    Release a little more magic power.
[05:53] ---
    That's tough...
[05:55] ---
    Layla-sama did the same kind of training
    to improve her Celestial Spirit Magic.
[06:02] ---
    Hey. Have you ever heard of the "One Magic"?
[06:06] ---
    The magic at the beginning of all magic, yes?
[06:11] ---
    That's what Hades said he wanted to get.
[06:20] ---
    I heard about it from my mother
    too, but it didn't sound dangerous
[06:25] ---
    or have anything to do with Zeref
    or some "World of Great Magic".
[06:31] ---
    What are you trying to say?
[06:32] ---
    If the One Magic that my mother
    talked about is the truth,
[06:37] ---
    Hades never could have gotten it then...
[06:42] ---
    It's something you can't even imagine...
[06:47] ---
    At first glance, it seems easy to
    obtain, but it's very difficult,
[06:52] ---
    and even while it's a strong power that
    certainly surpasses everything else,
[06:56] ---
    it's also a very weak power.
[06:59] ---
    My mother told me that all
    magic starts from love.
[07:06] ---
    That's why I think "One
    Magic" is actually "love".
[07:12] ---
    That's a wonderful interpretation.
[07:15] ---
    If Hades had thought the same way,
[07:19] ---
    maybe he wouldn't have
    fallen to the dark side.
[07:59] ---
    Stronger!
[08:01] ---
    Aye, sir!
[08:02] ---
    Much more stronger!
[08:04] ---
    Aye-aye, sir!
[08:06] ---
    I'm gonna shut up anyone who
    looks down on our guild!
[08:10] ---
    Aye!
[08:11] ---
    I'm gonna show 'em all
    the power of Fairy Tail!
[08:15] ---
    We'll show 'em!
[08:25] ---
    Look! The stars are so beautiful!
[08:27] ---
    I wonder if everyone else
    is training hard, too...
[08:32] ---
    Maybe they're looking up at the
    stars right now, just like us!
[09:00] ---
    I have to try harder, too!
[09:04] ---
    The second day of the beach training camp,
    three months before the Grand Magic Games.
[09:11] ---
    Now I feel up to scratch!
[09:13] ---
    As long as we seriously train our bodies...
[09:16] ---
    It's just the second day, but already
    our magic power has risen a lot!
[09:21] ---
    I'm doing the same pose as
    Gray-sama... It's so moving!
[09:26] ---
    If we keep training like
    this for three months,
[09:29] ---
    then catching up to this age
    won't just be a dream after all.
[09:32] ---
    Right!
[09:35] ---
    Look at this, all you
    jerks from other guilds!
[09:37] ---
    Look at what three months of fiery
    training does for Fairy Tail members!
[09:43] ---
    At first, I thought, "Just three
    months?", but if we train efficiently,
[09:48] ---
    it's more like "We have three whole months?", you know?
[09:51] ---
    Aye.
[09:53] ---
    Princess! There's an emergency.
[09:56] ---
    Why did you have to appear from there?!
[09:59] ---
    Punishment time, is it?
[10:00] ---
    Virgo!
[10:01] ---
    The Celestial Spirit maid!
[10:02] ---
    Come to think of it, with Lucy in
    the Fairy Sphere for seven years,
[10:07] ---
    the Celestial Spirits she has a contract with
[10:09] ---
    must have been in the Celestial
    Spirit World that whole time.
[10:13] ---
    Oh my gosh! During the "Key
    of the Starry Heavens" affair,
[10:16] ---
    I summoned them without thinking
    about it, but that's right,
[10:17] ---
    seven years had passed before that!
[10:21] ---
    Poor spirits! And it's Lucy's
    fault... Lucy's fault...
[10:25] ---
    No. That's not a big problem...
[10:29] ---
    Did something happen?
[10:34] ---
    The Celestial Spirit World is
    in danger of being destroyed.
[10:38] ---
    Everyone... please help us.
[10:51] ---
    What?!
[10:53] ---
    What do you mean...?
[10:55] ---
    The king of the Celestial
    Spirit World awaits you.
[10:57] ---
    He asked me to bring all of you there.
[11:00] ---
    Alright, leave it to us!
[11:01] ---
    When a friend asks for help...
[11:04] ---
    Wait! As far as I know, humans can't
    enter the Celestial Spirit World.
[11:08] ---
    If you wear Celestial Spirit clothes, you'll
    be able to move about the Spirit World.
[11:13] ---
    Let's go.
[11:14] ---
    Wait... I'm not mentally prepared yet...
[11:27] ---
    Why were just the two of us...
[11:29] ---
    ...left behind?!
[11:45] ---
    This is the Celestial Spirit World?!
[11:48] ---
    Wow, it's beautiful!
[12:01] ---
    Thank you for coming, old friend.
[12:08] ---
    He's huge!
[12:09] ---
    Huge moustache!
[12:11] ---
    The Celestial Spirit King!
[12:13] ---
    You're the king here?
[12:15] ---
    So informal...
[12:18] ---
    Indeed, I am.
[12:20] ---
    We heard the Celestial Spirit World
    is in danger of destruction?!
[12:24] ---
    Heh...
[12:30] ---
    smile
[12:34] ---
    Lucy and friends! Let us celebrate your
    release from the shackles of time!
[12:43] ---
    Party!
[12:54] ---
    What about the "in danger
    of destruction" thing?!
[12:57] ---
    Heh.
[12:58] ---
    What?!
[13:01] ---
    Mooo! You fell for it!
[13:04] ---
    Seeing the blank look on Lucy-san's
    face as we tricked her
[13:07] ---
    and while she's cosplaying Celestial
    Spiritwear no less is priceless!
[13:10] ---
    We thought we'd surprise you-ebi.
[13:13] ---
    But even now, if you need a haircut to look
    nice for the party, leave it to me-ebi.
[13:18] ---
    We thought in our own way of how to
    celebrate the homecoming of Lucy and all of you.
[13:23] ---
    We wanted to celebrate it together,
[13:25] ---
    but we can't all materialize in
    the human world at once, right?
[13:28] ---
    So we called all of you to
    the Celestial Spirit World.
[13:32] ---
    I'm sorry!
[13:33] ---
    We just did it this one time, we!
[13:36] ---
    That's right. This is a one-time privilege.
[13:40] ---
    So that's what this is about?!
[13:43] ---
    That's what it's about,
    as it were-moshimoshi!
[13:46] ---
    You surprised the hell out of us!
[13:48] ---
    Come! You can run into my
    arms if you like, Lucy!
[13:53] ---
    As if...
[13:55] ---
    Now then! Tonight, we shall drink in great
    quantities! And sing! And make merry!
[14:03] ---
    This is a party with my old friends!
[14:06] ---
    Yeah!
[14:21] ---
    How have you been?
[14:23] ---
    It was too bad about the exam.
[14:25] ---
    Horologium-san!
[14:27] ---
    Well, well. This is a pleasure.
[14:28] ---
    Thank you for that last time.
[14:31] ---
    Not at all. I need no thanks.
[14:34] ---
    But... um... it was embarrassing
    having no clothes on...
[14:38] ---
    Um... That was, uh...
[14:40] ---
    "I apologize for that," he says.
[14:43] ---
    You're the woman who once shared
    a body with Lucy, aren't you?
[14:46] ---
    Shared a body?!
[14:48] ---
    Do you have a man?
[14:50] ---
    No... um...
[14:51] ---
    Oh, that's pathetic!
[14:53] ---
    You'll end up like Lucy at this rate.
[14:56] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?!
[14:58] ---
    Wow, this is amazing!
[15:00] ---
    I've never seen any of these books!
[15:02] ---
    In that case, I'll give
    you one as a souvenir...
[15:08] ---
    He fell asleep!
[15:09] ---
    It's okay! He's just thinking.
[15:12] ---
    Plue!
[15:14] ---
    Come to think of it, this is
    a Celestial Spirit too, huh?
[15:21] ---
    Wow! There are tons of them!
[15:24] ---
    There are many Nicolas.
[15:27] ---
    Erza-san! Mooo! As always,
    you've got a nice body!
[15:31] ---
    Is that right?
[15:32] ---
    Would you jump up and down for me a moment?!
[15:35] ---
    Why?
[15:36] ---
    I don't like that Celestial Spirit.
[15:37] ---
    Neither do I.
[15:39] ---
    Delicious! What is this food?!
[15:43] ---
    Crab pescatore, garnished
    with stardust butter.
[15:46] ---
    And that's veal cutlet in succulent sauce.
[15:50] ---
    I'm sorry!
[15:52] ---
    At any rate, this is a strange place...
[15:56] ---
    I didn't know the Celestial Spirit
    World became like this either!
[16:01] ---
    Which one of these is my Plue?
[16:03] ---
    Naturally, though you are my old friend,
    this is my first time inviting you here.
[16:14] ---
    That just goes to show how
    much he means to you.
[16:18] ---
    Hey! What are you doing?!
[16:33] ---
    Old friend, I can see you
[16:40] ---
    You're right there
[16:48] ---
    Old friend
[16:52] ---
    I swear
[16:56] ---
    the bond between us will never be broken
[17:07] ---
    You start walking
[17:11] ---
    in the infinite wilderness
[17:15] ---
    Hold back tears
[17:19] ---
    and move on towards tomorrow
[17:23] ---
    I'm the star that's meant for you,
[17:31] ---
    so I shine bright
[17:42] ---
    This song is meant for you,
[17:50] ---
    so show me your smile
[19:24] ---
    Thank you.
[19:26] ---
    I love all of you!
[19:32] ---
    Heh.
[19:41] ---
    I had a great time.
[19:43] ---
    I've never eaten anything so delicious!
[19:46] ---
    You ate it?! How could you?!
[19:50] ---
    You're sure I can have this?
[19:53] ---
    I want these clothes!
[19:56] ---
    I can't get away from this weird Plue.
[19:59] ---
    They've got a weird bond
    going on over there, too.
[20:02] ---
    You have it rough, girl.
[20:04] ---
    You too, Aquarius-san!
[20:08] ---
    Old friend, we shall always be with you.
[20:16] ---
    Yeah!
[20:18] ---
    I look forward to working together again.
[20:21] ---
    You can call on meh or any of us anytime!
[20:24] ---
    I'll drop by the guild again sometime.
[20:26] ---
    Everyone, please continue to
    take good care of Lucy-san.
[20:35] ---
    Well, old friend, may you have the
    divine protection of the stars.
[20:48] ---
    The Celestial Spirits sure do love you.
[20:52] ---
    Everyone, you're all wonderful friends!
[20:55] ---
    Alright! We had a blast, but once
    we get back, we better train hard!
[20:59] ---
    That's right! We got three months to
    catch up to all those other guilds!
[21:03] ---
    And beat Sabertooth!
[21:06] ---
    Oh, there is one thing I forgot to tell you.
[21:10] ---
    The flow of time is different in the
    Celestial Spirit World and the human world.
[21:16] ---
    You don't mean...
[21:18] ---
    Like one year here is only a day
    in the human world or somethin'?!
[21:22] ---
    This would be a training paradise then!
[21:26] ---
    No.
[21:31] ---
    It's the opposite.
[21:36] ---
    One day spent in the Celestial
    Spirit World equals...
[21:42] ---
    ...three months in the human world.
[21:52] ---
    Everyone! We got tired of waiting for you!
[21:55] ---
    The Grand Magic Games
    are just five days away!
[21:57] ---
    I bet you guys trained your hearts out, huh?
[22:04] ---
    It's over...
[22:16] ---
    Moustache!
[22:18] ---
    Give us back our time!
[23:55] ---
    Oh, crap! All that time we had to train...
[23:59] ---
    It'll be alright! If you can bring out
    your latent "Second Origin" ability,
[24:03] ---
    you'll be able to get through it!
[24:04] ---
    Although it seems like it's really painful...
[24:06] ---
    I'll do it! Huh? Have you seen Erza?
[24:09] ---
    Erza is in the middle of battling heartache.
[24:14] ---
    Next time: Just Enough
    Time to Pass Each Other!
[24:16] ---
    Hey, Natsu, let's go tease Erza!
[24:19] ---
    I-I ain't goin! Don't come cryin'
    to me if you get your ass kicked!
