[00:05] ---
Everyone...
[00:07] ---
Natsu...
[00:38] ---
Sorry I'm late, Lucy.
[00:41] ---
Bastard...
[00:43] ---
Hey, morons. Quit bein' cocky!
[00:48] ---
I'm a Fairy Tail wizard, Natsu Dragneel!
[00:53] ---
A Dragon Slayer!
[02:30] ---
What was that, jackass?! Say it once more!
[02:33] ---
Jeez. I said you're too
frickin' noisy, Natsu.
[02:38] ---
You're stifling me!
[02:40] ---
Wanna make somethin' of it?!
[02:41] ---
You wanna make somethin' of it?!
[02:42] ---
Go for it, Natsu!
[02:44] ---
As always, they've got more energy
than they know what to do with.
[02:47] ---
Right, Wendy?
[02:48] ---
One's a wizard who controls fire and the
other's a wizard who controls ice, so...
[02:53] ---
Well, I suppose we can't expect them to
just get along. It's even deeper than that.
[02:59] ---
Gray-sama! Even when you're fighting,
your boldness is wonderful!
[03:03] ---
Are you... entirely okay?
[03:06] ---
Alright, that's enough!
[03:10] ---
Any more, and you'll destroy another pub!
[03:13] ---
Lucy!
[03:14] ---
Well, the Grand Magic Games
is taking a break tomorrow,
[03:17] ---
so why not let them
blow off a little steam?
[03:19] ---
Mira-san, that's not the point...
[03:24] ---
Master! Is it okay to let them go at it?!
[03:28] ---
I'll tell 'em off. Natsu!
[03:32] ---
If you're gonna do it, go all in!
Show me the fire of a Dragon Slayer!
[03:37] ---
Hey!
[03:38] ---
That's right! When the wielder of Dragon
Slayer Magic cries! That's a Man!
[03:43] ---
Right...
[03:44] ---
Stop, I said!
[03:45] ---
You don't gotta tell me that!
I'm gonna make you cry, Gray!
[03:49] ---
Shut up! You're the one
who's gonna cry, Natsu!
[03:52] ---
Thank you for the food!
[03:54] ---
Uh-oh!
[03:55] ---
That's terrible! How can
you treat me like this?!
[03:58] ---
Sorry 'bout that!
[03:59] ---
But stay outta the way!
[04:00] ---
What the heck?! I'm a Fairy Tail wizard too!
[04:06] ---
I have a bad feeling about this...
[04:08] ---
I'll heal you.
[04:10] ---
Forget me. Get my fish back the way it was...
[04:13] ---
Pathetic...
[04:15] ---
Strange, isn't it? A gentle girl
like that who uses Healing Magic
[04:21] ---
is also a Dragon Slayer who
uses Dragon Slayer Magic.
[04:25] ---
Yep. And those guys were raised by dragons...
[04:31] ---
Ow!
[04:33] ---
Would you stop it?!
[04:36] ---
E-Erza!
[04:39] ---
Morons. We're right in the middle
of the Grand Magic Games,
[04:44] ---
to decide the strongest wizard guild,
[04:47] ---
and the final game is right before us.
[04:50] ---
We made a great comeback,
from last place to this,
[04:53] ---
but none of the other
guilds here are pushovers.
[04:56] ---
At a time like this, when we need to be
focusing our energies, you jackasses...
[04:59] ---
...smooshed my cake!
[05:02] ---
Sit up straight. I'll have your heads!
[05:07] ---
Don't run away, you bastards!
[05:11] ---
Gajeel!
[05:12] ---
Yeesh. I finally made it,
for cryin' out loud.
[05:15] ---
Where have you been?
[05:18] ---
That's right! You blew off the match!
[05:20] ---
Hey, I wouldn't...
[05:21] ---
Look...
[05:23] ---
Because of your idiocy during the match,
I fell underneath the coliseum!
[05:29] ---
Is that right?
[05:31] ---
You forgot about that?
[05:33] ---
That must've been rough.
[05:35] ---
Like you had nothin' to do with it!
[05:37] ---
Forget about it. More importantly,
come with me, Salamander.
[05:42] ---
There's somethin' I wanna show you.
[05:47] ---
The Dragon King!
SIGN 1st Place: Fairy Tail
[05:55] ---
Fairy Tail is doin' great!
[05:57] ---
I bet they'll win it!
SIGN The Grand Magic Games Daily Results
[05:58] ---
Nah, no way!
[05:59] ---
Maybe Saber's lost its edge?
[06:01] ---
I saw it!
[06:02] ---
Nah. I highly doubt Sabertooth
will let it end like this.
[06:11] ---
Sting... Rogue... What the hell was that?
[06:19] ---
Hey, you two are Dragon Slayers.
[06:23] ---
You shoot your mouths off about how strong
you are on a regular basis, don't you?
[06:31] ---
But you were disgracefully beaten up,
and by a fellow Dragon Slayer no less.
[06:38] ---
Are you listening to me?!
[06:42] ---
I have no words.
We were completely defeated.
[06:46] ---
Natsu overwhelmed us without using
his flames cloaked in lightning.
[06:53] ---
Your strength far exceeds
what I had imagined...
[06:56] ---
...Natsu Dragneel!
[07:02] ---
Are those the words of a wizard from
Sabertooth, the strongest guild?!
[07:08] ---
Who told you to go out there and
look like a pair of pathetic fools?
[07:12] ---
Who told you to fail?
[07:15] ---
You sullied the name of the strongest guild!
[07:22] ---
Sting-kun!
[07:23] ---
Rogue-kun!
[07:25] ---
You bastards aren't fit to
be members of Sabertooth!
[07:31] ---
Wipe it out! Wipe out the crest of our guild!
[07:34] ---
My guild doesn't need weaklings!
It doesn't need losers!
[07:40] ---
Okay, okay, Master, but Sting-kun
and Rogue-kun did their best.
[07:46] ---
This time he lost,
but I'm proud of Sting-kun.
[07:51] ---
Lector...
[07:52] ---
I think that people can also get
stronger by experiencing failure.
[07:57] ---
Sting-kun learned a lot in this battle.
[08:02] ---
So I think you should...
[08:03] ---
Who are you?
[08:06] ---
C-Come on, Master...
[08:08] ---
After all, I've got the Saber crest
right here, proving... I'm a...
[08:14] ---
Why would the likes of a cat
bear the proud crest of Sabertooth?
[08:22] ---
Begone!
[08:32] ---
Sting-kun!
[08:36] ---
Lector!
[08:45] ---
Lector is... gone...
[08:52] ---
Frosch!
[08:57] ---
This is an eyesore.
[08:59] ---
I suppose it's what I get for letting cats
bear the crest of my guild.
[09:08] ---
Keep it down, Sting.
[09:10] ---
What did you do?!
[09:11] ---
What the hell did you do?!
[09:14] ---
Silence! Bawling over a stupid cat!
[09:37] ---
This is good.
[09:41] ---
Halt.
[09:43] ---
I'll reveal my identity, so you reveal yours.
[09:49] ---
A woman?
[09:56] ---
It can't be!
[10:00] ---
What?! Is that true?
[10:04] ---
There's no way I can believe that...
[10:08] ---
While we've been laboring
under a grave misconception,
[10:12] ---
an irresistible fate has locked us inside.
[10:17] ---
Eclipse, the portal that
can change the world...
[10:21] ---
And the festival of the Dragon King.
[10:25] ---
What exactly is down here, Gajeel-san?
[10:28] ---
Just be quiet and follow me.
[10:30] ---
Why only us?
[10:32] ---
Does it have something to do
with Dragon Slayers?
[10:36] ---
Probably.
[10:37] ---
Although we do have spectators...
[10:40] ---
There's some guy named "Spector" here?
[10:42] ---
After all, I'm curious.
[10:44] ---
This is it.
[10:46] ---
What is it?!
[10:49] ---
What the hell is that?!
[10:51] ---
Animal... bones?
[10:54] ---
Dragon bones...
[10:57] ---
It's a dragon graveyard.
[10:59] ---
Are all of these dragon bones?
[11:01] ---
There are so many!
[11:03] ---
This place confirms the existence of dragons.
[11:07] ---
What's it for?
[11:09] ---
Hell if I know.
[11:10] ---
What's goin' on here?
[11:12] ---
All of these dragons...
[11:15] ---
I wonder if something happened here.
[11:17] ---
Maybe Igneel is here, too...
[11:20] ---
Happy!
[11:21] ---
Sorry!
[11:22] ---
That's okay. He's not here.
[11:26] ---
Our dragons disappeared 14 years ago.
[11:30] ---
The remains at rest here
are much more ancient.
[11:36] ---
Milky Way...
[11:38] ---
What's wrong, Wendy?
[11:39] ---
Milky Way!
[11:41] ---
It's one of the Secret Dragon Slayer
spells that Poluchka-san taught me.
[11:46] ---
"Listen to the voices of the dragon souls
that continue to the heavenly river."
[11:51] ---
I thought it was a kind of attacking magic,
[11:55] ---
but maybe this is what it referred to.
[11:59] ---
Milky Way may be magic that lets
me hear the voices of dragon souls.
[12:04] ---
What?
[12:05] ---
Then...
[12:07] ---
If I can hear the voices of
these sleeping dragons,
[12:10] ---
maybe we can find out what happened here.
[12:13] ---
And learn what happened to our
own dragons that disappeared.
[12:21] ---
Hey, you! This area is restricted!
[12:24] ---
Wait!
[12:28] ---
What is this? Awful handwriting...
[12:32] ---
July 7th... Eclipse Project?
[12:37] ---
Festival of the Dragon King? What is this?
[12:48] ---
I was right.
[12:50] ---
I thought it was an attacking form of magic,
so these characters are different.
[12:55] ---
Magic runes?
[12:56] ---
What are you doing, Wendy?
[12:57] ---
Weren't you listening?
[12:59] ---
She said it's called Milky Way.
[13:01] ---
That'll do it. Everyone,
please back up a bit.
[13:07] ---
Wandering dragon souls,
I would receive your voices.
[13:13] ---
Milky Way!
[13:21] ---
It's beautiful!
[13:24] ---
Stars!
[13:31] ---
The bones!
[13:32] ---
Are you okay, Wendy?!
[13:34] ---
I'm looking for the dragon souls.
[13:36] ---
The wandering residual thoughts here
are so ancient and tiny...
[13:44] ---
I found one!
[13:51] ---
Is that a soul?!
[13:54] ---
Wendy!
[13:55] ---
It looks like she's concentrating.
[14:03] ---
That's...
[14:18] ---
Seeing that shocked look on
human faces never gets old.
[14:23] ---
My name is Zirconis, but I'm
also known as the Jade Dragon.
[14:29] ---
The spell you used to summon my soul
belonged to Grandine, the Sky Dragon, yes?
[14:36] ---
Where are you? Hm?
[14:39] ---
Cute!
[14:42] ---
This little Dragon Slayer summoned me?
[14:45] ---
Hey! Get away from Wendy!
[14:49] ---
Forget it! I'm going to eat this girl.
[14:52] ---
Bastard!
[14:53] ---
I'm kidding, of course, you stupid species.
[14:58] ---
Look! What can an astral body do?
[15:03] ---
This guy...
[15:04] ---
What's up with this playful man?
[15:07] ---
He's not a man. He's a dragon.
[15:10] ---
A dragon's soul, anyway...
[15:12] ---
I am Zirconis, otherwise
known as the Jade Dragon...
[15:15] ---
You already told us that!
[15:17] ---
What happened here?
[15:19] ---
There are a lot of dragon remains here.
[15:22] ---
We summoned your soul so
we could learn the truth.
[15:26] ---
I have nothing to say to humans. Go away!
[15:30] ---
I'm a cat!
[15:31] ---
Okay, then. It happened over 400 years ago.
[15:35] ---
Your absolute rules are pretty loose.
[15:38] ---
Dragons were once the rulers of this world.
[15:42] ---
We thrived, flying through the air, racing
across the land, and swimming in the sea.
[15:49] ---
Everything in this world belonged to us.
[15:54] ---
Humans were no more than our prey.
[15:58] ---
But there was a foolish dragon
who objected to our reign.
[16:05] ---
That one spouted nonsense about building a
world in which we could coexist with humans.
[16:11] ---
Eventually, between the dragons who agreed
and those who disagreed, a war began.
[16:21] ---
I fought as one who disagreed.
[16:24] ---
You disagreed... Then...
[16:27] ---
I have no fondness for humans.
That is, unless we're talking about food.
[16:33] ---
You're talking to food?!
[16:36] ---
Hey! I don't like when it talks back either!
[16:39] ---
So what happened with the war?
[16:43] ---
It heated up.
[16:46] ---
The battles between dragon and
dragon tore up vast areas of land.
[16:52] ---
Eventually, the dragons who were for
coexistence devised a stupid strategy.
[17:01] ---
They involved humans in the war
[17:05] ---
by giving them Dragon Slayer Magic,
which could destroy dragons.
[17:14] ---
And that's the origin of Dragon Slayers?
[17:19] ---
Dragon Slayers had tremendous power.
[17:23] ---
Victory for the dragons who chose
to coexist with humans was imminent.
[17:30] ---
However, they had made one miscalculation.
[17:34] ---
The Dragon Slayers, who had
been given too much power,
[17:37] ---
killed even the dragons who wished
to live peacefully with them.
[17:44] ---
And there was one man among the humans who
bathed in the blood of too many dragons.
[17:52] ---
I fear to even say that name.
[17:57] ---
He continued to destroy dragons
and bathe in their blood.
[18:02] ---
Presently, his skin turned to scales,
his teeth to fangs...
[18:07] ---
He transformed into a dragon himself.
[18:13] ---
A human... became a dragon?
[18:18] ---
That's what Dragon Slayer Magic leads to.
[18:24] ---
The dragons resting in peace here
were all murdered by that man.
[18:30] ---
Though human, he became the Dragon King.
[18:35] ---
The Dragon King initiated another war.
[18:39] ---
That was the Festival of the Dragon King.
[18:42] ---
The king's name was Acnologia.
[18:46] ---
A dragon with pitch-black wings
unlike any other dragon...
[18:52] ---
Acnologia!
[18:56] ---
Fairy Tail's holy ground, Tenroujima Island.
[19:00] ---
We fought against that dragon on the island,
but were no match for him. We were helpless.
[19:07] ---
He was originally a human?!
[19:08] ---
Ridiculous!
[19:11] ---
He slaughtered most of the dragons.
[19:16] ---
That was 400 years ago.
[19:21] ---
You people did this...
[19:24] ---
Hey!
[19:24] ---
He vanished.
[19:25] ---
You didn't tell us everything!
[19:27] ---
Wendy!
[19:28] ---
That's it. All of the souls
in this place have gone.
[19:33] ---
In Eastern terms, I suppose it
would be called "entering Nirvana."
[19:40] ---
That was a hell of a history lesson.
[19:43] ---
The scale's too big for me!
[19:45] ---
If you use too much Dragon Slayer Magic,
[19:48] ---
you turn into a real dragon?!
[19:51] ---
That would be bad!
[19:52] ---
What should we do?!
[19:55] ---
That's impossible.
[19:57] ---
Who are you?!
[19:58] ---
I overheard everything.
[20:00] ---
Our research is in accord
with historical fact.
[20:05] ---
You people know about
Zeref's Demons, don't you?
[20:12] ---
Deliora!
[20:13] ---
Acnologia is similar to that.
[20:16] ---
We believe that Zeref turned a
Dragon Slayer into Acnologia.
[20:21] ---
Zeref did it?!
[20:23] ---
In other words, destroying Zeref,
the root of all evil,
[20:27] ---
will be the first step in the
subjugation of Acnologia.
[20:31] ---
Who are you?!
[20:32] ---
Destroy Zeref?!
[20:35] ---
You're Yukino!
[20:39] ---
I saw it in a prophecy... A white knight...
[20:42] ---
A castle being destroyed... and Lucy singing!
[21:10] ---
Sorry I'm late, Lucy.
[21:12] ---
Bastard...
[21:14] ---
Hey, morons. Quit bein' cocky!
[21:19] ---
I'm a Fairy Tail wizard, Natsu Dragneel!
[21:24] ---
I'm a Dragon Slayer!
[21:32] ---
Brilliant Flame of the Fire Dragon! Roar!
[21:37] ---
Crushing Fang of the Fire Dragon!
[21:41] ---
Natsu!
[21:46] ---
It's impossible!
[21:48] ---
Not hardly! I'm still goin' strong!
[22:00] ---
Natsu!
[22:02] ---
I ain't givin' up, no matter what...
[22:07] ---
I ain't gonna run away... or go back...
[22:15] ---
This ain't over!
[22:19] ---
Natsu!
[23:56] ---
Happy, that dragon made some impact, huh?
[23:59] ---
I'm just happy that it was a ghost.
Otherwise, we would've been eaten.
[24:04] ---
By the way, who were those
self-important people?
[24:07] ---
Natsu, I think they're actually
important people, not self-important.
[24:11] ---
Important or not, anybody who messes
with my friends is gonna pay!
[24:16] ---
Next time: Project Eclipse!
[24:18] ---
Hurt my comrade and I'll kick your ass!
[24:21] ---
Get 'em, Natsu!
