[00:14] ---
    Fairy Tail...
[00:16] ---
    Natsu...san?
[00:22] ---
    You came here to pick a fight with Master?
[00:25] ---
    That's suicidal!
[00:27] ---
    Fro thinks so, too...
[02:00] ---
    Are you serious, kid?
[02:05] ---
    Anybody who doesn't think of
    their comrades as comrades
[02:09] ---
    is on my list!
[02:11] ---
    Is he talking about Yukino?
[02:14] ---
    That's got nothin' to do with you!
[02:16] ---
    Who would storm in here
    over something like that?!
[02:20] ---
    I don't know what you're talking about,
[02:22] ---
    but I suppose you've got your reasons.
[02:27] ---
    You don't know what I'm talkin' about?!
[02:30] ---
    Dobengal.
[02:32] ---
    Deal with him.
[02:33] ---
    Yes, sir!
[02:35] ---
    You're avoiding me?
[02:37] ---
    A guild soldier like you needs
    100 more years of experience.
[02:41] ---
    If you want a shot at the top, you'll have
    to prove yourself. Show me what you can do.
[02:50] ---
    Pandemonium!
[02:53] ---
    Fight me!
[02:56] ---
    You're not getting near the master!
[03:06] ---
    I, Dobengal, am not taking
    part in the Grand Magic Games,
[03:11] ---
    but when it comes to skill, I'm just as
    strong as any of the participants here.
[03:15] ---
    I'm going to show you
    the power of Sabertooth!
[03:22] ---
    A smokescreen, huh?
[03:27] ---
    You don't know who you're messing with.
[03:29] ---
    You should withdraw immediately.
[03:31] ---
    Get out!
[03:32] ---
    Outta my way!
[03:35] ---
    My beef ain't with you!
[03:40] ---
    I don't believe it...
[03:41] ---
    Dobengal's down?!
[03:44] ---
    He's one of the top ten strongest
    wizards in our guild!
[03:49] ---
    Master, let me...
[03:51] ---
    Don't do a thing.
[03:54] ---
    Kid, there aren't any like you in my guild.
[03:57] ---
    Amusing.
[04:05] ---
    Is that all...
[04:07] ---
    ...you've got?!
[04:36] ---
    Firing Hammer...
[04:39] ---
    ...of the Lightning Flame Dragon!
[04:59] ---
    Minerva!
[05:02] ---
    My lady!
[05:09] ---
    Shall we end this evening's
    entertainment here?
[05:14] ---
    Minerva, I didn't ask you to step in...
[05:18] ---
    Of course,
[05:20] ---
    if this had continued, you
    would have won, Father.
[05:24] ---
    Father?
[05:26] ---
    However, the world cares about appearances.
[05:31] ---
    Even though this one came
    here and attacked you,
[05:34] ---
    if the master of Sabertooth annihilated
    a participant in the Grand Magic Games,
[05:40] ---
    it would cause difficulty for all of us.
[05:43] ---
    I'll tell ya one thing... if anybody's
    gettin' wiped out, it's him!
[05:47] ---
    My father has somewhat warmed to this battle,
[05:50] ---
    but cannot back down in
    front of his subordinates.
[05:54] ---
    What do you think?
[05:55] ---
    Will you allow us to save face?
[06:04] ---
    If you do, I'll return this
    kitten to you unharmed.
[06:10] ---
    Happy!
[06:12] ---
    I'm sorry, Natsu!
[06:15] ---
    Dammit!
[06:17] ---
    You've incapacitated several of our people,
[06:20] ---
    but we're willing to overlook this incident.
[06:25] ---
    In exchange, I'm asking you
    to behave in a mature fashion.
[06:36] ---
    Natsu!
[06:39] ---
    I'm sorry! They caught me at the entrance!
[06:43] ---
    It's okay, Happy.
[06:45] ---
    It's my fault for leaving you behind.
[06:48] ---
    Natsu!
[06:51] ---
    Let's go.
[06:52] ---
    Aye!
[06:56] ---
    That kid's got grit.
[06:59] ---
    We'll settle this at the Grand Magic Games.
[07:02] ---
    To our hearts' content.
[07:06] ---
    We ain't gonna lose to the likes of you.
[07:09] ---
    In fact, you won't be
    able to keep up with us.
[07:17] ---
    If you call yourself a guild,
    take care of your comrades.
[07:22] ---
    That's all I wanted to say.
[07:30] ---
    Comrades...
[07:32] ---
    We don't have that kind of bond in our guild.
[07:37] ---
    Y-You're that strong,
[07:40] ---
    Natsu Dragneel?!
[07:43] ---
    Hey! I'm gonna compete tomorrow!
[07:45] ---
    I can't just let him get
    away with this carnage!
[07:49] ---
    You mean you're going to unleash the
    power of Black Lightning, right?
[07:52] ---
    Certainly, this was rather one-sided carnage,
[07:57] ---
    but without something like this,
    we would've lost our spark.
[08:01] ---
    Anyway, we need someone to replace Yukino.
[08:04] ---
    I think I'll get in on the fun.
[08:12] ---
    You fought Sabertooth?!
[08:15] ---
    Actually, I wanted to mix
    it up with 'em even more...
[08:18] ---
    Too bad it ended right as
    I was gettin' fired up.
[08:20] ---
    I'm sorry, Natsu!
[08:22] ---
    It's my fault, for getting caught!
[08:25] ---
    What are you talking about?! We're
    lucky it ended the way it did!
[08:29] ---
    That's right!
[08:30] ---
    If one of their team
    members had been injured,
[08:33] ---
    we might've been disqualified!
[08:37] ---
    Come to think of it, that Minerva
    chick was sayin' something like that.
[08:41] ---
    You are incredibly stupid!
[08:44] ---
    Use your head a little!
[08:46] ---
    Exactly!
[08:47] ---
    Pour it on, Gray! Read him the riot act!
[08:50] ---
    If you were gonna take the fight
    to them, you should've invited me!
[08:54] ---
    It's not fair, you getting
    to have all the fun!
[08:58] ---
    You're missing the point!
[09:00] ---
    Just because you're frustrated
    from losing a match,
[09:03] ---
    there's nothing admirable about getting
    payback in a fight outside the arena.
[09:06] ---
    That's not what it's about!
[09:09] ---
    I just wanted to deliver a
    message to that Rufus bastard...
[09:13] ---
    "I'm not gonna lose next time!"
[09:16] ---
    Anyway, I'm not lettin'
    those jerks off the hook.
[09:18] ---
    A comrade's someone who's got
    your back and you got theirs...
[09:23] ---
    Being strict is one thing,
[09:25] ---
    but humiliating a girl and then kicking
    her out, that's as low as you can go!
[09:31] ---
    That Yukino girl,
[09:33] ---
    even after being abused like
    that, she came to see me...
[09:38] ---
    I wonder where she is now...
[09:40] ---
    I'm worried.
[09:42] ---
    She did say she has nowhere to go...
[09:47] ---
    Dammit! I'm still seething!
[09:50] ---
    I think I'll go back there
    an' fight some more!
[09:52] ---
    Alright! Count me in!
[09:54] ---
    You can't do that!
[09:56] ---
    Can't you just settle it at the tournament?!
[09:59] ---
    Although now that you've riled up Sabertooth,
[10:02] ---
    from tomorrow on, they'll probably
    go even harder on us in the matches!
[10:10] ---
    It doesn't matter which guild they're in,
[10:12] ---
    all wizards have their own feelings.
[10:26] ---
    Move it!
[10:27] ---
    Let us go!
[10:28] ---
    Stop it, I said!
[10:31] ---
    Listen, you two...
[10:39] ---
    Would you cut it out?!
[10:42] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[10:52] ---
    Hey, did you hear?
[10:53] ---
    About last night, right?!
[10:54] ---
    What are you talking about?
[10:55] ---
    Apparently, somebody
    attacked Sabertooth's inn!
[11:00] ---
    What kind of fool would
    pick a fight with Saber?!
[11:06] ---
    Beats me!
[11:07] ---
    Well, brawls happen outside
    the arena every year, right?
[11:10] ---
    This is a festival, so they
    should take it public!
[11:17] ---
    Natsu-sama...?
[11:20] ---
    A guild that makes its family
    members cry ain't no guild at all!
[11:28] ---
    Don't tell me he did it for...
[11:39] ---
    We're at the halfway point
    in the Grand Magic Games.
[11:42] ---
    The beginning of the third day!
[11:44] ---
    I wonder what kind of passionate
    dramas we'll see today?
[11:48] ---
    Our guest today
[11:50] ---
    is Lahar-san, from the Magic Council.
[11:54] ---
    It's been a long time, hasn't it?
[11:56] ---
    Thank you for this opportunity.
[11:58] ---
    Lahar-san, you're the Captain of the
    Enforcement and Detention Corps...
[12:03] ---
    Yes.
[12:04] ---
    I won't stand for any shenanigans
    during the tournament.
[12:10] ---
    That's the captain for you.
[12:12] ---
    He never forgets his duties.
[12:16] ---
    Damn you, Lahar...
[12:18] ---
    Why'd you make me come here?
[12:23] ---
    A guest of the Grand Magic Games?!
[12:26] ---
    You?
[12:28] ---
    I have no reason to decline.
[12:30] ---
    Come with me, Doranbolt.
[12:32] ---
    No, I...
[12:35] ---
    You want to see Fairy Tail
    alive and well, don't you?
[12:38] ---
    Don't you wonder about them?
[12:41] ---
    How could I not?
[12:43] ---
    Still, the way I am now...
[12:46] ---
    Are you still hung up on what
    happened seven years ago?
[12:49] ---
    About what you perceive of
    as abandoning Fairy Tail?
[12:54] ---
    They're looking forward.
[12:57] ---
    The only one who's dragged
    down by the past is you.
[13:08] ---
    Oh, no! The match is starting!
[13:10] ---
    It's your fault! You just had to get
    a fish-kebab from that food stand!
[13:13] ---
    It smelled so good, I couldn't help myself!
[13:16] ---
    Whatever, let's just hurry!
[13:21] ---
    I'm going to announce the competition
    for this, the third day of the Games!
[13:25] ---
    The name of the event...
[13:26] ---
    ...is Pandemonium!
[13:29] ---
    What does "pandemonium" mean?
[13:31] ---
    It's an abode of demons.
[13:33] ---
    Like a building where lots of demons lurk...
[13:37] ---
    I wonder if they're doing a haunted house...
[13:40] ---
    They're walking down a
    dark path and suddenly...
[13:43] ---
    ...something like this jumps out!
[13:48] ---
    I don't think I like "pandemonium"...
[13:50] ---
    I-I'm scared, too!
[13:54] ---
    Even though you're a ghost yourself?!
[13:57] ---
    There will be one participant
    from each guild.
[14:00] ---
    Please choose your representative!
[14:02] ---
    I'll do it!
[14:04] ---
    I gotta continue what I started last night!
[14:07] ---
    You don't get to decide all by yourself!
[14:09] ---
    If it's a revenge match, I wanna do it, too!
[14:13] ---
    No. I'll go.
[14:16] ---
    You going out there may only
    make things more complicated.
[14:20] ---
    I agree! Good luck, Erza!
[14:23] ---
    Fight!
[14:24] ---
    Let me do it!
[14:26] ---
    Would you calm down?!
[14:29] ---
    I'll participate for B Team.
[14:31] ---
    Wait a second!
[14:33] ---
    It's about time that I get to do something!
[14:35] ---
    Cana, how could you go, when
    you're a reserve member?
[14:39] ---
    What happened to Mystogan?
[14:41] ---
    Juvia hasn't seen him yet today...
[14:43] ---
    With the guest commentator
    being a member of the Council,
[14:46] ---
    I should be able to participate, right?
[14:48] ---
    That's true...
[14:51] ---
    If Er-chan is gonna do this,
    let me go too, Kagura-chan!
[14:54] ---
    I'll allow it.
[14:58] ---
    I'm not gonna lose, Er-chan!
[15:00] ---
    Right!
[15:01] ---
    I hate Jellal, too...
[15:04] ---
    He used us...
[15:07] ---
    ...and murdered Simon.
[15:09] ---
    I'll never forgive him...
[15:11] ---
    I'll never forgive him!
[15:16] ---
    I have to focus!
[15:18] ---
    From Mermaid Heel, it looks like
    Millianna is taking the field!
[15:22] ---
    That girl!
[15:23] ---
    Millianna...
[15:24] ---
    She's the one who was wearing the hood.
    I didn't know she was in a guild.
[15:28] ---
    Don't cause trouble in
    front of the Council, Obra.
[15:35] ---
    I'll be the rep for Pegasus.
[15:39] ---
    Like I said last night, I'm
    participating in this one.
[15:42] ---
    I'll use my Black Lightning to
    blast them all to smithereens.
[15:45] ---
    Even though we don't know what kind
    of competition it's going to be?
[15:51] ---
    Do what you want.
[15:53] ---
    If Natsu Dragneel isn't gonna be
    in it, I don't care what happens.
[16:00] ---
    Jura-san is going to do it?
[16:02] ---
    On Obaba's orders, so we
    can't do anything about it.
[16:04] ---
    My sock...
[16:06] ---
    Just buy a new one!
[16:09] ---
    Count on me.
[16:11] ---
    All of the participants have been selected!
[16:13] ---
    From Sabertooth, Orga!
[16:15] ---
    From Lamia Scale, Jura!
[16:17] ---
    From Blue Pegasus, Hibiki!
[16:19] ---
    From Raven Tail, Obra!
[16:21] ---
    From Mermaid Heel, Millianna!
[16:24] ---
    From Quatro Puppy, Novali!
[16:26] ---
    From Fairy Tail A, Erza!
[16:28] ---
    From Fairy Tail B, Cana!
[16:30] ---
    These are our eight competitors!
[16:49] ---
    What is that?!
[16:50] ---
    Wow...
[16:56] ---
    Begin analysis.
[17:09] ---
    Pandemonium, a temple
    haunted by evil monsters!
[17:14] ---
    It's huge!
[17:17] ---
    Haunted by monsters, he says?
[17:20] ---
    That's the idea-kabo.
[17:23] ---
    There are 100 monsters inside this temple.
[17:27] ---
    That being said, they're actually
    magical manifestations that we created,
[17:30] ---
    so everyone can relax. There's
    no danger of you being attacked.
[17:34] ---
    The monsters are D, C, B, A, S!
[17:38] ---
    Those are the five levels of battle
    power the monsters are divided into.
[17:41] ---
    This is how it breaks down.
[17:45] ---
    Incidentally...
[17:46] ---
    ...if you're curious about just how
    strong the D-class monsters are...
[18:08] ---
    Ones like these
[18:09] ---
    and ones even stronger, 100 of them
    wandering around the temple...
[18:12] ---
    That's Pandemonium-kabo!
[18:17] ---
    Even though he says they're
    just magical manifestations,
[18:20] ---
    if you get attacked by them,
    you're hurt for real, right?
[18:22] ---
    Will Erza and Cana be okay?
[18:25] ---
    I'd like to think that those
    two will be alright, but...
[18:29] ---
    This is a really extravagant
    competition, don't you think?
[18:31] ---
    Though it feels like they may
    be going a little too far...
[18:38] ---
    Please note that as the class
    of the monsters goes up,
[18:41] ---
    their fighting strength
    increases exponentially.
[18:44] ---
    The S-class monster is so strong
    that there's no guarantee
[18:47] ---
    even one of the 10 Great Wizard
    Saints can defeat it-kabo.
[18:53] ---
    In order, each of you will choose
    the number of monsters to battle.
[18:58] ---
    It's called your "right to challenge".
[19:01] ---
    Right to challenge?
[19:02] ---
    For example, if you choose three monsters,
[19:05] ---
    three of them will appear inside the temple.
[19:09] ---
    The person who chooses them
    enters the temple alone.
[19:12] ---
    If the player successfully destroys
    them, he or she gets three points.
[19:18] ---
    The next player then has the right to
    challenge up to 97 of the remaining monsters.
[19:25] ---
    And so on and so on,
[19:27] ---
    until there are zero monsters left!
[19:30] ---
    Alternatively, if everyone runs out of magic
    power, the game is over at that point.
[19:35] ---
    It's like a counting game.
[19:37] ---
    That's right!
[19:39] ---
    Assessing the situation when your
    turn comes around becomes important!
[19:43] ---
    However, as I mentioned before,
[19:45] ---
    the monsters are ranked.
[19:48] ---
    Whether the player uses their
    right to challenge one or five,
[19:52] ---
    the monsters appear randomly.
[19:56] ---
    In other words, you need a strategy to avoid
    running into the S-class monster, right?
[20:02] ---
    If it's random, having a strategy
    like that won't do you any good.
[20:08] ---
    Not true. Between probability
    theory and my Archive,
[20:12] ---
    strategy will work to some extent.
[20:15] ---
    Irrespective of the monster's rank,
[20:18] ---
    you'll get one point for
    each monster you destroy.
[20:22] ---
    Once you enter the temple, you
    can't exit until you've succeeded.
[20:27] ---
    What happens if we go down
    while inside the temple?
[20:31] ---
    The number of points you've earned
    during your turn stays as is,
[20:35] ---
    but the number of destroys you've had
    that turn goes to zero, and you're out.
[20:41] ---
    Then it's bad to get too greedy.
[20:44] ---
    But if you only go with one monster per
    turn, you'll fall behind the others.
[20:49] ---
    And you also have to consider how much magic
    you'll recover before it's your next turn.
[20:54] ---
    This is surprisingly difficult, huh?
[20:57] ---
    Well, let's see what happens...
[21:00] ---
    ...with the two from our guild.
[21:03] ---
    Alright, let's decide on the order.
[21:06] ---
    Please draw your lots.
[21:11] ---
    Number one!
[21:13] ---
    You're lucky! It'll go back around
    to being your turn the most.
[21:18] ---
    I got number eight...
[21:21] ---
    With this competition,
[21:23] ---
    I thought winning or losing all
    depended on the luck of the draw...
[21:27] ---
    Luck of the draw? I don't know about that...
[21:30] ---
    More than the order of battle,
[21:32] ---
    pacing yourself and situational
    judgment are important in this game.
[21:36] ---
    No.
[21:37] ---
    This isn't a game anymore.
[21:47] ---
    All 100 will be my opponents!
[21:51] ---
    I exercise my right to challenge...
[21:54] ---
    ...100!
[23:55] ---
    100 monsters all by herself,
    she says! Erza really is scary!
[23:58] ---
    It's like Erza is the one who's the monster!
[24:01] ---
    Does she actually have all that armor?!
[24:03] ---
    Heaven's Wheel Armor, Black Wing,
    Flame Empress, Sea Empress,
[24:06] ---
