[00:01] ---
    The Grand Magic Games elimination
    round! Sky Labyrinth...
[00:05] ---
    Begin!
[00:07] ---
    If this is a race, we better hurry up.
[00:09] ---
    Yeah!
[00:10] ---
    Wait!
[00:12] ---
    What?!
[00:13] ---
    He said all five members of the team
    have to reach the goal together.
[00:16] ---
    Wendy isn't back yet.
[00:18] ---
    Oh, that's right!
[00:19] ---
    Wendy!
[00:21] ---
    Then what are we gonna do?!
[00:23] ---
    Even with Wendy gone, you
    got a Man right here.
[02:01] ---
    Member change!
[02:04] ---
    What superhuman strength!
[02:06] ---
    Elf-nii-chan!
[02:08] ---
    Guess we got no choice. I don't think
    we have time to wait for Wendy!
[02:12] ---
    We're in your hands, Elfman!
[02:13] ---
    Leave it to me!
[02:16] ---
    Lisanna! Happy!
[02:19] ---
    What is it, Erza?!
[02:21] ---
    Search for Wendy and Carla!
[02:23] ---
    I just hope they haven't
    got into any trouble...
[02:27] ---
    Okay! I'll talk to our people!
[02:30] ---
    Good luck, everyone!
[02:40] ---
    Man!
[02:42] ---
    There's the entrance to the labyrinth!
[02:44] ---
    Nope! There's the entrance
    to being number one in Fiore!
[02:47] ---
    Let's go, Team Fairy Tail!
[02:50] ---
    Yeah!
[02:54] ---
    Sky Labyrinth!
[02:59] ---
    Let's begin with an explanation
    of the elimination round's rules.
[03:03] ---
    This time around, there are 113 teams strong
    participating in the Grand Magic Games.
[03:08] ---
    The purpose of this elimination
    round is to cut down
[03:11] ---
    that number all at once to eight teams
    who will compete in the Games proper.
[03:16] ---
    The rules are simple.
[03:18] ---
    All of the teams must go from
    their inn to Sky Labyrinth
[03:21] ---
    and make it from there to
    Domus Flau, the Games arena.
[03:24] ---
    The eight teams that arrive first
    survive the elimination round
[03:28] ---
    and will compete in the Games.
[03:31] ---
    Furthermore, contestants are free to
    use magic to get through the maze,
[03:36] ---
    and there are no restrictions.
[03:39] ---
    However...
[03:41] ---
    ...even if lives are lost in the Labyrinth,
[03:44] ---
    The Grand Magic Games executive
    committee assumes no responsibility!
[03:49] ---
    So it's a three-dimensional maze in here...
[03:53] ---
    I'm not good with stuff like this!
[03:56] ---
    Get it together!
[03:57] ---
    If we're not one of the
    first eight teams to arrive,
[03:59] ---
    forget about number one in Fiore,
     because we'll be cut!
[04:02] ---
    Yeah, right?!
[04:04] ---
    We gotta get through here an' beat
    those Sabertooth bastards to a pulp!
[04:07] ---
    Let's get to the goal before they do!
[04:10] ---
    A Man finishes the elimination
    round in first place!
[04:13] ---
    Basically, we should head east.
[04:16] ---
    The arena is in that direction.
[04:18] ---
    In that case, count on me!
[04:20] ---
    Open! Gate of the Compass!
[04:24] ---
    Pyxis!
[04:29] ---
    Please, Pyxis! Tell us which way is east!
[04:38] ---
    That way is east!
[04:41] ---
    Sorry, Lucy.
[04:43] ---
    I brought along a compass.
[04:44] ---
    Pyxis... Good job.
[04:51] ---
    Let's head east!
[04:53] ---
    A Man charges straight through!
[04:56] ---
    Be that as it may, we can't
    just go straight east, can we?
[05:01] ---
    Not the way this is constructed...
[05:02] ---
    Is the roof folded back over?!
[05:07] ---
    You're doing okay?
[05:08] ---
    Yeah. I don't know why, but
    I'm not feelin' sick at all.
[05:13] ---
    I'll explain!
[05:15] ---
    For the elimination round, this entire
    Sky Labyrinth has been treated with magic
[05:21] ---
    so even those with motion sickness or
    fear of heights can compete fairly!
[05:27] ---
    So it's like a Troia.
[05:30] ---
    Maybe that means Natsu isn't the
    only wizard with motion sickness!
[05:34] ---
    That's just pathetic.
[05:36] ---
    I can hear you two!
[05:37] ---
    Anyway, let's keep going east!
[05:39] ---
    Right!
[05:45] ---
    What the hell is this?!
[05:46] ---
    Just lookin' at it is making me dizzy!
[05:49] ---
    I can't tell if that end is above or below!
[05:53] ---
    Whichever! Let's go!
[05:55] ---
    A Man doesn't hesitate, but charges ahead!
[05:59] ---
    Still, how far does this thing go?
[06:01] ---
    Don't worry about it!
[06:02] ---
    At the end of it'll be the goal! Hey!
[06:08] ---
    Get a hold of yourself!
[06:10] ---
    What the hell's goin' on here?!
[06:11] ---
    Like the name says, it's a labyrinth.
[06:13] ---
    That reminds me of what he said about not
    taking responsibility even if people die...
[06:18] ---
    Falling from here, we'd end up on
    the street in Crocus, headfirst.
[06:23] ---
    Then we're supposed to choose
    our path carefully, huh?
[06:26] ---
    We ain't gonna get to the goal
    by inspecting this whole place!
[06:29] ---
    Let's just look around to the east!
[06:33] ---
    I think it'd be a good idea
    to take notes as we go.
[06:36] ---
    Notes?
[06:37] ---
    Like how we've gotten here
    from the starting point...
[06:40] ---
    What kind of places we've passed...
[06:42] ---
    If we can't get a grip on where we are right
    now, we won't be able to make progress easily.
[06:45] ---
    Yeah, we can't just complain about it.
[06:47] ---
    I see. She's talking about mapping the place.
[06:50] ---
    Taking notes?!
[06:53] ---
    I don't know one place from another!
[06:56] ---
    Can't you get a whiff of the
    goal or something, Natsu?
[07:00] ---
    My nose isn't working.
[07:02] ---
    Maybe that's due to the magic
    cast in this labyrinth...
[07:06] ---
    Every team has the same conditions.
[07:08] ---
    Anyway, let's keep going!
[07:13] ---
    Wendy-nee isn't with them?!
[07:15] ---
    Isn't with them... You mean she's missing?
[07:18] ---
    Carla isn't there either!
[07:20] ---
    But the rule is there has to be five people!
[07:23] ---
    So Natsu-nii and the rest will...
[07:25] ---
    Elf-nii-chan suddenly filled in for her.
[07:28] ---
    Elfman's in the elimination round?
[07:30] ---
    Seriously?!
[07:31] ---
    If I'd been there, maybe I would've been
    able to be in the elimination round, too!
[07:35] ---
    Uh, look...
[07:36] ---
    The point is, we have to look for those two!
[07:38] ---
    Romeo and Nabu, spread the word.
[07:41] ---
    If we split up into teams and
    stay in contact through Warren...
[07:44] ---
    Even so, this is a huge city...
[07:47] ---
    Got it!
[07:49] ---
    I just hope they haven't gotten
    caught up in some kind of trouble...
[07:53] ---
    First, let's get back
    to the rest of the gang.
[07:55] ---
    I'm worried, but we have to make
    an efficient search for them.
[07:58] ---
    Yeah...
[07:59] ---
    East is that way!
[08:01] ---
    It's hard taking notes on this maze.
[08:04] ---
    Yeah, 'cause every inch has
    distinctive features...
[08:08] ---
    Hey! Erza...
[08:09] ---
    Yeah. I heard something, too.
[08:13] ---
    You're the one that said it's this way!
[08:16] ---
    What, it's my fault?!
[08:18] ---
    Not that I care, but we've
    already been this way once.
[08:21] ---
    Right?! I knew it!
[08:23] ---
    Anyway, we gotta keep goin'
    or we'll run out of time!
[08:26] ---
    Come to think of it...
[08:28] ---
    The guys from the other guilds
    are in here, too, right?
[08:33] ---
    Hey. Are you serious?!
[08:35] ---
    That mug...
[08:36] ---
    Fairy Tail!
[08:38] ---
    Unbelievable!
[08:40] ---
    Those guys!
[08:42] ---
    This guild is Twilight Ogre.
[08:46] ---
    When Natsu and the others came back
    home from Tenroujima after seven years,
[08:50] ---
    this is the guild that threatened Fairy Tail.
[08:54] ---
    With Natsu and the rest back in action, the
    guild really put the hurt on them, but...
[08:59] ---
    As always, they're a piss-poor lookin' guild!
[09:03] ---
    Lame-o's!
[09:04] ---
    I didn't expect you guys
    to be participating, too.
[09:07] ---
    I could say the same to you.
[09:09] ---
    You're the one who's in the
    guild that's perpetually last.
[09:12] ---
    This year's Fairy Tail is different!
[09:16] ---
    How so?!
[09:18] ---
    Hey, wait a second! Are we gonna fight here?!
[09:22] ---
    We're free to use magic in here!
    There are no restrictions!
[09:25] ---
    We'll crush you right here!
[09:28] ---
    These dopes don't learn.
[09:30] ---
    I'm fired up!
[09:31] ---
    We're seriously gonna battle?!
[09:33] ---
    The less rivals there are, the better.
[09:35] ---
    Well, sure, but...
[09:37] ---
    Who would've guessed we'd
    run into 'em this quickly?!
[09:40] ---
    Get 'em!
[09:41] ---
    I'm gonna pay 'em back every
    bit for that last time!
[09:44] ---
    We got our eyes on...
[09:47] ---
    ...overthrowing Sabertooth!
[09:49] ---
    That and bein' number one in Fiore!
[09:52] ---
    You're in our way!
[10:12] ---
    What the...?!
[10:13] ---
    Hey-hey-hey-hey!
[10:15] ---
    What is this?!
[10:17] ---
    The floor... No, this is...
[10:19] ---
    The entire labyrinth is rotating!
[10:23] ---
    What?!
[10:36] ---
    The entire labyrinth is rotating!
[10:38] ---
    R-Rotating?!
[10:42] ---
    What's that about?!
[10:54] ---
    What the heck is that?!
[10:56] ---
    Hey, don't tell me...
[10:57] ---
    Lisanna, look!
[10:59] ---
    Oh, no! People are falling!
[11:02] ---
    You're disqualified if you're
    outside the zone, right?
[11:05] ---
    I hope Natsu is okay...
[11:10] ---
    It's rotating on a Z-axis!
[11:12] ---
    Everyone, move to the flank!
[11:14] ---
    I'm already falling!
[11:17] ---
    If only Happy were here...!
[11:19] ---
    You don't need Happy!
[11:26] ---
    You've got a Man here.
[11:28] ---
    N-Nice catch!
[11:31] ---
    Thanks, Elfman!
[11:33] ---
    It was nothin'!
[11:34] ---
    Are you guys okay?!
[11:36] ---
    Yeah!
[11:38] ---
    It's stopped.
[11:40] ---
    But this is seriously screwed up.
    What kind of contraption is this?
[11:44] ---
    Remember, the idea is to take over 100
    teams and narrow them down to eight.
[11:48] ---
    This is a logical way.
[11:50] ---
    And lots of teams were
    just shaken right off...
[11:55] ---
    Maybe I'll just quit...
[12:02] ---
    What is this? A map?!
[12:05] ---
    Looks like it...
[12:06] ---
    That's a stroke of luck!
[12:08] ---
    If we combine it with our notes,
    it'll be an even more accurate map!
[12:16] ---
    Hey! That's...
[12:18] ---
    It's yours?
[12:19] ---
    G-Give it back!
[12:22] ---
    I refuse.
[12:28] ---
    You are disqualified.
[12:30] ---
    I see...
[12:31] ---
    I'm starting to get an idea of how
    this elimination round works...
[12:35] ---
    Everyone, your eyes are scary!
[12:42] ---
    The elimination round has revved
    up into high gear at last.
[12:46] ---
    And from here on in, it's
    gonna get even crazier!
[12:49] ---
    We'll pare down those teams
    like nobody's business!
[12:54] ---
    Then there's only one thing to do!
[12:57] ---
    Steal maps from the other teams!
[13:00] ---
    This is more of a battle than a race!
[13:02] ---
    It's a Man's scramble for maps!
[13:05] ---
    If it's a battle, that's right up our alley!
[13:09] ---
    I'm taking this!
[13:11] ---
    By all means!
[13:13] ---
    Okay, this makes the sixth one!
[13:17] ---
    I have no idea how to read this map!
[13:20] ---
    Lucy's good at stuff like that.
[13:25] ---
    Then let's bring all the maps
    together and have Lucy decipher 'em!
[13:29] ---
    Me?!
[13:30] ---
    If you would.
[13:31] ---
    Sure.
[13:32] ---
    Give us...
[13:34] ---
    ...your maps!
[13:36] ---
    I got three more teams' worth!
[13:38] ---
    I've got seven teams' worth!
[13:40] ---
    I'm sorry...
[13:42] ---
    How cruel...
[13:44] ---
    It's movin' again!
[13:47] ---
    Hang on to something!
[14:01] ---
    It stopped.
[14:03] ---
    Alright! Let's get back to our map quest!
[14:07] ---
    Max! Did you find out anything?!
[14:09] ---
    No. There's the lateness of the hour for one
    thing, and no relevant info at all out there...
[14:14] ---
    I know, right?
[14:15] ---
    Where the heck did you go, Wendy?!
[14:18] ---
    We need to hurry up and find her so Natsu
    and the rest can focus on the elimination round.
[14:23] ---
    Well, Warren?
[14:25] ---
    We're coming up clueless.
[14:27] ---
    I think we've searched most of Crocus,
[14:31] ---
    and I can't imagine she
    would be in Domus Flau...
[14:35] ---
    About all that leaves is the palace...
[14:38] ---
    Now that you mention it...
[14:39] ---
    What is it?
[14:40] ---
    Carla said she was going to
    sightseeing spots with Wendy...
[14:45] ---
    Then... you don't think...
    they could be in the palace?
[14:49] ---
    Let's check it out!
[14:51] ---
    Yeah!
[14:53] ---
    Hmm... It's rotated around a bunch of times,
[14:56] ---
    so I thought even if we kept heading for the
    maze's east side, it would waste a lot of time.
[15:02] ---
    So that's why we came to the center
    part of the labyrinth, huh?
[15:05] ---
    I figured doing that would make
    it easy for us to locate east...
[15:10] ---
    ...but none of us could've guessed that the
    central part was some wide open landscape...
[15:16] ---
    And upside down on top of that...
[15:19] ---
    The problem is there is no east or west here.
[15:23] ---
    Even the compass has gotten dizzy.
[15:26] ---
    Then we don't know which way to go...
[15:30] ---
    But we can't afford to stand around either.
[15:34] ---
    I was waiting for a time like this!
[15:36] ---
    What are you going on about?
[15:37] ---
    Is your head spinning too, Lucy?
[15:40] ---
    No!
[15:41] ---
    Open! Gate of the Compass! Pyxis!
[15:51] ---
    That's the one from before...
[15:54] ---
    It's scared of somethin'.
[15:56] ---
    It's traumatized by Erza's compass.
[15:58] ---
    It's my fault?!
[16:00] ---
    Pyxis, this is your time to shine!
[16:03] ---
    A compass is useless now!
[16:07] ---
    Look. It just spins around.
[16:09] ---
    Come on, we need your power!
[16:12] ---
    I apologize for before. Will you help us?
[16:17] ---
    It's got a weak mind, huh?
[16:19] ---
    Can you blame it, goin' up against Erza?
[16:21] ---
    Did you say something?!
[16:23] ---
    Nope! Not a word!
[16:30] ---
    East is that way!
[16:32] ---
    That way... You mean up?!
[16:34] ---
    You sure about this?!
[16:35] ---
    Yeah! The power of a Celestial Spirit
    is way stronger than just some compass!
[16:41] ---
    How are we supposed to climb up there?!
[16:44] ---
    It's obvious, isn't it?
[16:45] ---
    This.
[16:51] ---
    That's what you meant?!
[17:01] ---
    There are birds...
[17:03] ---
    This is a peaceful place.
[17:04] ---
    I've been tossed around every which way,
[17:07] ---
    but I can't stand the idea of
    failing this elimination round now.
[17:11] ---
    What are you lying around
    for? We're still in a race.
[17:15] ---
    Hurry! Let's aim for first
    place in this round!
[17:17] ---
    Yeah!
[17:17] ---
    Man!
[17:26] ---
    Yeesh! What the hell is
    this?! Now it's the sea?!
[17:30] ---
    How far does this go?!
[17:32] ---
    Calm down and look carefully!
[17:34] ---
    That sky is a fake. It's painted onto a wall!
[17:37] ---
    Then...
[17:38] ---
    ...we've reached the end of this path...
[17:41] ---
    ...and that's the goal?!
[17:43] ---
    Alright! Last spurt!
[17:46] ---
    Yeah!
[17:57] ---
    This is the palace of the king of Fiore?
[18:00] ---
    The Flower Light Palace, Mercurius...
[18:02] ---
    This is my first time seeing it.
[18:04] ---
    Me too!
[18:07] ---
    Hey, you two!
[18:08] ---
    What are you doing here
    at this time of night?!
[18:10] ---
    Excuse me.
[18:11] ---
    Actually, someone from our guild who was
    meant to participate in the elimination round
[18:15] ---
    of the Grand Magic Games has gone missing.
[18:17] ---
    We looked all over Crocus. This is
    the last place we haven't checked.
[18:23] ---
    Hey!
[18:25] ---
    R-Right...
[18:28] ---
    His Majesty is also looking forward
    to the Grand Magic Games...
[18:32] ---
    You can look in the courtyard.
[18:34] ---
    We can go in?!
[18:37] ---
    What'd you say?! Are you serious?!
[18:39] ---
    Is something wrong?
[18:41] ---
    Happy and Lisanna just went into the palace!
[18:45] ---
    I've never even been in there!
[18:47] ---
    I'm surprised they let us in, you know?
[18:50] ---
    The garden is open to the
    public for sightseeing.
[18:54] ---
    Let's split up here.
[18:56] ---
    Got it. If anything happens,
    relay it to Warren.
[18:59] ---
    Aye, sir!
[19:01] ---
    Roger! We're on our way
    to Mercurius right now!
[19:05] ---
    I just hope they're safe...
[19:07] ---
    Trouble from the elimination round already?
    I can tell this is going to be hard going...
[19:17] ---
    Elfman Strauss!
[19:20] ---
    Erza Scarlet!
[19:22] ---
    Gray Fullbuster!
[19:25] ---
    Lucy Heartfilia!
[19:27] ---
    Natsu Dragneel...
[19:31] ---
    Congratulations! You passed
    the elimination round!
[19:36] ---
    Well, of course. It went smooth as silk.
[19:39] ---
    Are we in first place?!
[19:43] ---
    No. Eighth.
[19:46] ---
    You barely made it.
[19:50] ---
    What?!
[20:01] ---
    So, our eight teams are all present!
[20:05] ---
    Sky Labyrinth, the elimination round
    of the Grand Magic Games, is over!
[20:11] ---
    How did Natsu and the rest do?!
[20:13] ---
    Which guilds are going on to the real Games?!
[20:16] ---
    Which guilds are going to
    participate in the real Games?
[20:19] ---
    You'll find out at the opening ceremony!
[20:24] ---
    Why not tell us now?! Miser!
[20:27] ---
    I see! The elimination
    round is already finished.
[20:32] ---
    Happy! Is something wrong?
[20:35] ---
    Th-That...
[20:39] ---
    No... It can't be...
[20:46] ---
    Wendy's bag...
[20:50] ---
    Where's Carla? Where's Wendy?
[20:52] ---
    Calm down. Let's look for them around here.
[20:55] ---
    Right.
[20:56] ---
    Come on!
[20:57] ---
    Aye!
[21:05] ---
    What's that?! You found them?!
[21:08] ---
    Are they okay?!
[21:09] ---
    Actually, they're both unconscious!
[21:12] ---
    Hurry up and call someone, Warren!
[21:15] ---
    Carla! It's me! Wake up!
[21:19] ---
    It doesn't look like she's injured,
[21:21] ---
    but it's strange... I hardly
    sense any magic power from Wendy.
[21:26] ---
    It's the same with Carla! What should we do?!
[21:34] ---
    She's awake!
[21:35] ---
    Wendy! What happened?!
[21:40] ---
    No!
[21:40] ---
    Wendy, it's me! It's Lisanna!
    Do you remember me?!
[21:45] ---
    I'm here, too!
[21:47] ---
    Happy... Lisanna-san...
[21:51] ---
    What happened...
[21:53] ---
    ...to me...?
[21:55] ---
    You tell us! What happened?!
[21:59] ---
    We were...
[22:01] ---
    The elimination round of
    the Grand Magic Games...
[22:03] ---
    Elfman stepped up in place of Wendy.
[22:06] ---
    Natsu and the rest barely managed
    to make it through the round.
[22:10] ---
    And...
[22:12] ---
    ...the Grand Magic Games proper
    are about to begin at last.
[22:16] ---
    What will become
[22:18] ---
    of Team Natsu's battle to dethrone
    Sabertooth and become Fiore's number one guild?
[23:56] ---
    The elimination round of the Grand
    Magic Games! You came in last, huh?
[23:59] ---
    There's gotta be some mistake.
[24:00] ---
    You came in last.
[24:02] ---
    Oh, shut up! We passed it and
    that's all that matters, right?
[24:04] ---
    Now we just gotta take down places
    one through seven all at once!
[24:06] ---
    All at once?
[24:08] ---
    There are five people on a team
    and eight teams total, right?
[24:10] ---
    Um... So we just gotta beat 40 people!
[24:14] ---
    Next time: New Guild!
[24:16] ---
    I'm impressed you can multiply,
[24:18] ---
    but according to your calculation,
    you'll be fighting yourself, too!
[24:20] ---
    Then make it 39 people!
[24:22] ---
    Then you'll be fighting
    your... Oh, never mind.
[24:24] ---
