[00:00] ---
    We're unstoppable!
[00:02] ---
    It's because we're Fairy Tail, see?!
[00:11] ---
    I need to think a bit-kabo...
[00:16] ---
    Alexei-sama...
[00:17] ---
    Here's the list of battle matches...
[00:21] ---
    This match-up...
[00:23] ---
    The management is well-informed.
[00:27] ---
    Shall we begin?
[00:29] ---
    For the sake of our true purpose...
[02:08] ---
    And now, I'll announce
[02:10] ---
    the current standings of the third
    day of the Grand Magic Games!
[02:14] ---
    As before, Raven Tail is in first place!
[02:21] ---
    The time has come at last...
[02:24] ---
    Move out, people.
[02:30] ---
    Still in second place, Lamia Scale!
[02:37] ---
    In third place, one rank down, Sabertooth!
[02:44] ---
    In fourth place, Mermaid Heel!
[02:50] ---
    And tied for fourth,
[02:51] ---
    moving up two ranks, the Fairy Tail A team!
[02:58] ---
    Alright!
[03:00] ---
    We're gonna move up even more ranks!
[03:02] ---
    Aye, sir!
[03:05] ---
    In sixth place, the Fairy Tail B team!
[03:11] ---
    We ain't gonna lose either!
[03:13] ---
    And you can see the last
    place teams for yourself.
[03:17] ---
    I guess when you're in seventh place,
    you don't even get a name check...
[03:20] ---
    Humiliating parfum!
[03:23] ---
    If Quatro Puppy's gonna be our
    name, I'm glad he didn't say it!
[03:29] ---
    Laxus vs. Alexei!
[03:34] ---
    Alright, the battle part of the third day
    of the Grand Magic Games is about to begin!
[03:42] ---
    I'm looking forward to the battle part!
[03:45] ---
    Indeed.
[03:46] ---
    In the first match, it's
    Millianna of Mermaid Heel...
[03:52] ---
    ...vs. Semas of Quatro Puppy!
[03:58] ---
    Our souls are always Wild...
[04:01] ---
    ...Four!
[04:03] ---
    Let the match begin!
[04:09] ---
    Victory goes to the swiftest!
[04:11] ---
    Wild Spin!
[04:18] ---
    Oh, my! It's a body attack, using
    his giant body to spin around!
[04:23] ---
    I'll use magic to slow him down!
[04:25] ---
    Cat Binding Tube!
[04:30] ---
    It bounced right off!
[04:31] ---
    Millianna!
[04:33] ---
    Attaboy!
[04:34] ---
    Our souls are always Wild...
[04:37] ---
    ...Four!
[04:39] ---
    Keep it up and you'll win!
[04:42] ---
    I'm not done yet!
[04:43] ---
    Wild...
[04:46] ---
    Kitten Blast!
[04:51] ---
    That spurred my spinning on
    even more! Now take this!
[04:58] ---
    Beat her with one shot!
[04:59] ---
    Our souls are always Wild...
[05:02] ---
    ...Four!
[05:04] ---
    I hope Millianna's okay...
[05:07] ---
    She's taken a lot of damage.
[05:09] ---
    Erza...
[05:10] ---
    She's fine.
[05:13] ---
    Millianna would never lose
    over a few bruises like this.
[05:16] ---
    Millianna!
[05:18] ---
    Hang in there!
[05:20] ---
    There's someone Millianna needs to defeat.
[05:23] ---
    Until she brings him down, she won't lose.
[05:29] ---
    If I can't beat a guy like
    this, I better pack it in...
[05:33] ---
    There'd be no point in joining Mermaid Heel!
[05:35] ---
    Time to end this!
[05:37] ---
    Wild Spin, twice as fast!
[05:40] ---
    Uh-oh! Is this gonna decide the match?!
[05:44] ---
    Cat Binding Tube!
[05:47] ---
    I'll tear this junk right off!
[05:49] ---
    I'm not letting go, no matter what!
[06:03] ---
    W-W-Wild...
[06:11] ---
    That ain't wild at all!
[06:16] ---
    Feelin' spiffy!
[06:18] ---
    Semas is down for the count!
[06:20] ---
    The winner is Millianna!
[06:27] ---
    Kagura-chan! Risley-chan! I won!
[06:27] ---
    Now that was an interesting battle!
[06:30] ---
    And she used various kinds of
    magic. I learned something.
[06:34] ---
    You've improved, Millianna.
[06:37] ---
    Even though getting bound by that tube
[06:39] ---
    wouldn't draw a score on that
    magic-measuring device from before...
[06:43] ---
    Bound...?
[06:45] ---
    It was rough for me when I went up
    against her a long time ago, too.
[06:50] ---
    I hate Jellal, too...
[06:55] ---
    Next, the second match for the battle part!
[06:59] ---
    From Sabertooth, the minstrel
    who sings to the red moon...
[07:02] ---
    Rufus Lohr!
[07:09] ---
    Versus Holy Night Eve of Blue Pegasus...
[07:12] ---
    Eve Tilm!
[07:18] ---
    Eve-kun, the parfum of victory!
[07:21] ---
    Do your best!
[07:23] ---
    Fight, Eve!
[07:25] ---
    These two clashed during the
    competition of the first day,
[07:28] ---
    and now they'll collide in
    battle on the third day!
[07:32] ---
    Snow Magic: White Fury!
[07:37] ---
    That's your memory of where I was standing.
[07:41] ---
    I already experienced your
    skill during "Hidden".
[07:44] ---
    And I remember it well!
[07:46] ---
    You remember it, eh?
[07:49] ---
    Eh?
[07:51] ---
    S-Sensei! What are you doing here?!
[07:55] ---
    That's your memory.
[08:01] ---
    Eve's got a memory like that?!
[08:03] ---
    What are you doing, Senpai?!
[08:06] ---
    I don't remember that parfum! Men!
[08:16] ---
    A star falls on the night!
[08:20] ---
    A direct hit on Eve!
[08:23] ---
    Or so we thought, but it was
    just a copy made of snow!
[08:27] ---
    A brilliant parfum!
[08:30] ---
    That's the way, Eve!
[08:31] ---
    Keep it up!
[08:32] ---
    Eve-kun was originally a member
    of the Council, wasn't he?
[08:36] ---
    That's right.
[08:37] ---
    He was a Rune Knight of the Enforcement
    and Detention Corps like the rest of us.
[08:42] ---
    Yes, even back then, he was a shining light,
[08:46] ---
    but after entering a guild, his
    magic has become even more polished.
[08:51] ---
    White Blizzard!
[08:53] ---
    You waste your time.
[08:55] ---
    I don't think so.
[08:57] ---
    I'm using White Blizzard to search
    for the location of your real body!
[09:02] ---
    Over there! White Fang!
[09:06] ---
    I remember that magic.
[09:09] ---
    Memory Make.
[09:12] ---
    There it is...
[09:12] ---
    What kind of Molding Magic is that?!
[09:16] ---
    Magic that gives form to memories?
[09:19] ---
    That's...
[09:21] ---
    ...an ancient spell.
[09:23] ---
    In other words, Ancient Magic.
[09:25] ---
    So there's more to this
    than meets the eye, huh?
[09:30] ---
    Oh, boy! W-What is...?
[09:35] ---
    It's getting kind of hot out here...
[09:38] ---
    I'm sensing the rise of a
    tremendous magic power...
[09:53] ---
    Rage of the Burning Earth!
[10:11] ---
    The match is over!
[10:20] ---
    Eve fought a good fight,
    but he fell short of Rufus!
[10:25] ---
    The winner is Rufus of Sabertooth!
[10:28] ---
    He really is strong!
[10:36] ---
    Memory Molding...
[10:39] ---
    It's my job to beat him.
[10:42] ---
    How could Eve lose like that? Crap...
[10:46] ---
    Still, he really did do his best...
[10:49] ---
    Meister...
[10:51] ---
    We've really fallen hard in the rankings...
[10:54] ---
    Like a flower's parfum, be at ease, men.
[11:02] ---
    We still have a secret weapon.
[11:10] ---
    We have a secret weapon.
[11:16] ---
    It's so important that I said it twice.
[11:19] ---
    So we've learned.
[11:24] ---
    At any rate, I wonder who
    that rabbit really is...
[11:27] ---
    If he won't even tell us...
[11:30] ---
    Don't tell me it's not even
    a member of our guild?
[11:33] ---
    That'd be against the rules!
[11:37] ---
    Moving right along, let's
    begin the third match-kabo!
[11:42] ---
    From the Fairy Tail B team, Laxus Dreyar!
[11:49] ---
    Versus Alexei of Raven Tail!
[11:55] ---
    It's Laxus!
[11:57] ---
    His opponent is from Ivan's guild...
[12:00] ---
    Good luck, Laxus!
[12:03] ---
    I'm sure you got nothin' to worry about.
[12:05] ---
    We're talking about Laxus here...
[12:07] ---
    But... Juvia's got a bad feeling about this...
[12:46] ---
    There's been bad blood between father and
    son guilds since day one, right, Yajima-san?
[12:53] ---
    Lahar-kun, you brought along
    people from the Corps, right?
[12:57] ---
    Yes. A few.
[13:00] ---
    Because of regulations...
[13:02] ---
    Keep a close eye on Raven Tail.
[13:04] ---
    If there's any skulduggery,
    stop the match immediately.
[13:09] ---
    Right.
[13:10] ---
    Warren...
[13:12] ---
    Roger!
[13:14] ---
    This is HQ! Bisca, can you hear me?
[13:17] ---
    What do you mean "HQ", Warren?
[13:20] ---
    No movement from Master Ivan. Go ahead.
[13:23] ---
    Roger!
[13:25] ---
    Team Raijinshuu plus Lisanna...
[13:27] ---
    How 'bout you?
[13:28] ---
    This is Raijinshuu plus Lisanna.
[13:31] ---
    Currently, there are no conspicuous
    movements from Raven Tail.
[13:35] ---
    I'm not gonna let you do any funny
    business like that first day, Crow-chan!
[13:38] ---
    Just try to tarnish Laxus's valor.
[13:41] ---
    The Raijinshuu won't guarantee your lives.
[13:47] ---
    Ever says she wants to go back by Elfman...
[13:50] ---
    Please grant her permission.
[13:52] ---
    I said no such thing!
[13:54] ---
    Ivan...
[13:56] ---
    I won't let you pull any
    more cowardly stunts.
[14:01] ---
    Is something wrong, First Master?
[14:04] ---
    No, nothing.
[14:07] ---
    Doing everything in your power
    to protect your comrades...
[14:11] ---
    And just a little bit of
    enjoying the circumstances...
[14:18] ---
    It's splendid.
[14:20] ---
    The ultimate form of my aspirations
[14:24] ---
    is right before my eyes.
[14:28] ---
    Don't forget this, Third Master.
[14:32] ---
    Um... Or is it sixth?
[14:35] ---
    I appreciate the kind words.
[14:37] ---
    And it's actually the seventh...
[14:39] ---
    Sixth is right!
[14:40] ---
    Get a grip!
[14:43] ---
    Both of you, step forward!
[14:49] ---
    Let the match begin!
[14:55] ---
    So you're in my old man's guild?
[14:57] ---
    Who the hell are you, anyway...?
[15:18] ---
    This guy...
[15:27] ---
    How...?
[15:28] ---
    You gotta be kiddin' me!
[15:30] ---
    He's getting his ass kicked?
[15:34] ---
    I don't believe it... Laxus?!
[15:35] ---
    W-What's going on?
[15:38] ---
    Who the hell is that masked freak?!
[15:42] ---
    No way! Laxus...?!
[15:49] ---
    My goodness... Alexei keeps pouring it on!
[15:52] ---
    Laxus can't even lift a finger!
[16:09] ---
    What the hell is this?
[16:12] ---
    A kind of Hallucination Magic.
[16:15] ---
    Everyone around us
[16:17] ---
    is talking about this right now.
    They can't see our true bodies.
[16:21] ---
    They can't hear us either.
[16:24] ---
    What they see are phantoms fighting.
[16:32] ---
    It looks real, doesn't it?
[16:34] ---
    Not one person realizes it's an illusion.
[16:38] ---
    The crowd is watching images of the
    mighty Laxus as helpless as a baby.
[16:43] ---
    Why is Laxus on the ropes like this?!
[16:46] ---
    Bisca!
[16:48] ---
    Ivan isn't doing anything!
[16:49] ---
    Raijinshuu plus Lisanna!
[16:52] ---
    I don't think they're doing
    anything crooked over here either!
[16:54] ---
    This is unbelievable! Laxus!
    It's time to get serious!
[16:59] ---
    Dammit...
[17:02] ---
    Laxus! What's wrong?!
[17:05] ---
    It seems that even your guild idolizes you.
[17:11] ---
    I wonder how your compatriots
    feel while watching this...
[17:16] ---
    Laxus!
[17:19] ---
    Hey, come on...
[17:20] ---
    I've got no idea what this is about.
[17:23] ---
    About?
[17:25] ---
    What's the point of
    winning an illusory battle?
[17:30] ---
    Exactly.
[17:32] ---
    Our goal isn't "victory".
[17:35] ---
    This hallucination is just camouflage.
[17:40] ---
    An illusion is an illusion.
[17:43] ---
    The end result can be altered as we like.
[17:47] ---
    End result, you say?
[17:49] ---
    Laxus!
[17:51] ---
    Go, Laxus!
[17:53] ---
    Hang in there!
[18:08] ---
    Oh, my! Laxus has begun to counterattack!
[18:25] ---
    That's how you do it! Go, Laxus!
[18:25] ---
    Go! Do your best!
[18:30] ---
    Alright! Go!
[18:32] ---
    Easy win!
[18:35] ---
    I figured he'd be okay.
[18:37] ---
    Yeah...
[18:45] ---
    Yes! That ought to settle it!
[18:46] ---
    Yeah!
[18:48] ---
    It looks like we were worried for nothing.
[18:51] ---
    Warren!
[18:52] ---
    Right!
[18:53] ---
    Good job, Bisca.
[18:55] ---
    Thanks.
[18:57] ---
    Raijinshuu plus Lisanna...
[18:59] ---
    In the end, they didn't do anything, huh?
[19:01] ---
    I was a fool for worrying
    about Laxus even for a moment!
[19:18] ---
    What?!
[19:19] ---
    Laxus!
[19:21] ---
    Uh-oh! The tables are turned again!
[19:24] ---
    Is this the end of Laxus's counterattack?!
[19:27] ---
    Laxus!
[19:29] ---
    What the hell is going on here?!
[19:39] ---
    Is this the "end result"
    you were talkin' about?
[19:42] ---
    Depending on your negotiations with us,
[19:45] ---
    it's possible that we would
    even let you win this.
[19:50] ---
    We've got nothing to talk about.
[19:53] ---
    The illusions don't mean a damn thing.
[19:57] ---
    I'm gonna finish this by taking out
    your real self right here and now.
[20:01] ---
    That's impossible!
[20:07] ---
    Reality is harsh.
[20:11] ---
    Not even you can defeat Raven
    Tail's elite all at the same time.
[20:22] ---
    And there's one more thing.
[20:27] ---
    You know how strong I am, don't you...
[20:30] ---
    ...my foolish son?
[20:33] ---
    I figured as much...
[20:37] ---
    ...useless old man!
[20:39] ---
    Makarov would die before he coughed it up.
[20:53] ---
    But you're different.
[20:57] ---
    Would you tell us?
[21:00] ---
    The location of Lumen Histoire!
[21:03] ---
    What are you talking about?
[21:06] ---
    You don't have to play dumb.
[21:10] ---
    I'm sure Makarov has told you.
[21:13] ---
    Actually, I don't know.
[21:16] ---
    No. You must know.
[21:19] ---
    Well, even if I did, I wouldn't tell you.
[21:24] ---
    Come, come...
[21:25] ---
    You're in a hopeless situation,
    but I'm willing to let you win.
[21:31] ---
    Although if you don't accept the condition...
[21:35] ---
    ...it's not going to end with just
    your illusory self being beaten.
[21:40] ---
    Jeez, you're a real pain in the ass.
[21:44] ---
    I can understand why Gramps
    washed his hands of you.
[21:48] ---
    Bring it on.
[21:51] ---
    See, the master's enemies are my enemies!
[21:56] ---
    Apparently, you need to be taught a lesson...
[22:00] ---
    ...about the power of Raven Tail,
     the anti-Fairy Tail guild!
[23:56] ---
    What happened to Laxus?!
[23:58] ---
    Those guys aren't using another
    underhanded trick, are they?
[24:00] ---
    Everyone's keepin' a close watch
    on them, so it's gotta be okay.
[24:02] ---
    Maybe he feels really sick...
[24:05] ---
    Like he ate too much at last night's
    banquet and now his stomach is upset?
[24:07] ---
    Or he drank too much...
[24:09] ---
    I bet there's somethin' on his mind!
[24:10] ---
    Like he's lonely 'cause he's
     got almost no friends...
[24:13] ---
    Next time: Wendy vs. Cheria!
[24:16] ---
    I know what it is!
[24:18] ---
    What?
[24:19] ---
    He must be exhausted...
[24:21] ---
    ...from listening to your dumb babble!
[24:22] ---
