[00:05] ---
You put some thought into it, Number Six.
[00:08] ---
In the end, it was all
I could do, Number One.
[00:12] ---
If we win the Grand Magic Games, they may
release Lucy, fair and square. But...
[00:20] ---
...we can't put all our faith in that,
so there had to be an alternate plan.
[00:27] ---
With everyone absorbed in the tournament,
this is the perfect chance.
[00:30] ---
We'll cheer the team on as usual.
[00:36] ---
Meanwhile, behind the scenes, a separate
team is heading to rescue Lucy.
[00:40] ---
A war fought on two fronts, right?
[00:52] ---
I'm counting on you, brats!
[02:27] ---
Previously on Fairy Tail...
[02:29] ---
Lucy's been captured?!
[02:31] ---
It seems she's gotten
mixed up in some scheme.
[02:33] ---
But it looks like she'll be returned
if we win the Grand Magic Games.
[02:37] ---
So even as our team takes the field,
a second group storms the palace.
[02:45] ---
All right! The Grand Magic Games
have reached their climax at last!
[02:50] ---
I'll announce the current standings.
[02:57] ---
In 6th place, Quatro Puppy with 15 points!
SIGN 6th Place
[03:06] ---
Well, keep watching us.
[03:08] ---
In 5th place, Blue Pegasus with 30 points!
[03:14] ---
5th place. That's tough...
[03:16] ---
30 points...
[03:18] ---
We have to get fired up again.
[03:20] ---
Yeah...
[03:21] ---
What? The important part is coming up now.
[03:24] ---
"Adversity is our greatest
chance" Ichiya here.
[03:28] ---
We've got two teams tied in 3rd place!
[03:32] ---
Lamia Scale and Mermaid Heel,
both with 40 points!
[03:39] ---
The final day of the festival...
[03:42] ---
All of the guilds are fired up.
[03:45] ---
In 2nd place, Sabertooth, with 44 points!
[03:54] ---
And in 1st place, Fairy Tail, with 45 points!
[04:11] ---
Fairy Tactician!
[04:16] ---
It sounds like the final battle of
the Grand Magic Games is starting.
[04:19] ---
All right! Now's our chance!
[04:21] ---
Aye, sir!
[04:23] ---
While everyone is absorbed in the
tournament, we'll rescue Lucy.
[04:26] ---
A battle fought on two fronts...
[04:28] ---
Given the circumstances,
this was our best option.
[04:32] ---
But how can we sneak into the
palace without getting caught?
[04:36] ---
I have a good idea!
[04:39] ---
I bet it's a stupid one!
[04:41] ---
Yeah.
[04:42] ---
What are you talking about?
[04:49] ---
See? Perfect disguises!
[04:52] ---
That's way too suspicious!
[04:54] ---
It's okay! I've got an idea!
[04:56] ---
That's our Mira!
[04:58] ---
Said while looking like that doesn't
instill any confidence in me.
[05:02] ---
We'll do everything in our
power to rescue Lucy-san.
[05:05] ---
Erza-san and everyone else,
good luck at the tournament!
[05:11] ---
Leave this to us. I'm counting
on you to save Lucy.
SIGN Grand Magic Games
[05:17] ---
Show us your fighting skills! Your magic!
And the bond you have with your comrades!
[05:27] ---
The final day! A survival game
in which everyone participates!
[05:31] ---
Let the Grand Magic Game begin!
[05:38] ---
It's about to start.
[05:40] ---
I guess this will decide which guild wins.
[05:44] ---
And for this final battle, the battlefield
is the entire city of Crocus-kabo!
[05:51] ---
The members of each guild have already
dispersed and are standing by.
[05:56] ---
The teams run around town and if they
encounter an enemy guild, a battle ensues.
[06:01] ---
If an opponent loses consciousness
or becomes unable to fight,
[06:04] ---
the other side will gain one point.
[06:07] ---
And each guild assigns one leader.
[06:12] ---
Although the guilds don't know who
the other guild leaders are-kabo!
[06:17] ---
If the leader is defeated, the
other team gets five points.
[06:20] ---
So theoretically, the highest
score could be 45 points.
[06:23] ---
Every guild has a chance to win.
[06:26] ---
Should the team stay together
and fight or split up?
[06:30] ---
That depends on your strategy-kabo!
[06:33] ---
Listen. We have no choice but to win.
[06:38] ---
To get Lucy back!
[06:40] ---
Hopefully Natsu-san and the
others will safely rescue her...
[06:43] ---
But we can't pin our hopes on that.
[06:46] ---
Even so, we've got another
motive for winning this thing.
[06:50] ---
We gotta win for the guys in the guild
[06:52] ---
who had it rough while we
were gone those seven years.
[06:59] ---
Who will attain the glorious peak of magic?!
[07:03] ---
Let the Grand Magic Games begin!
[07:07] ---
Let's go!
[07:08] ---
Yeah!
[07:15] ---
Well! The final battle has begun at last!
[07:19] ---
Yes.
[07:20] ---
It seems many of the teams are
splitting up to fight individually.
[07:25] ---
Do your best, everyone-kabo!
[07:27] ---
The members of Sabertooth, each of whom has
great fighting strength, have split up!
[07:33] ---
Otherwise, some teams are
using the buddy system,
[07:36] ---
while others have formed a three-person cell.
[07:42] ---
What's wrong, Rufus?
[07:44] ---
They're not moving.
[07:49] ---
W-What's this?!
[07:52] ---
Hey, what the hell?
[07:54] ---
What's goin' on?
[07:56] ---
W-What's wrong?! The members of Fairy Tail
have their eyes closed and aren't moving!
[08:02] ---
What the hell are they doing?!
[08:05] ---
W-What is this?
[08:07] ---
I don't know!
[08:09] ---
The devil takes the hindmost!
Hurry up and start kicking ass!
[08:15] ---
Fairy Tail's odd behavior is curious...
[08:20] ---
Seriously?! Two of you?!
[08:22] ---
...but other people have already
made contact with the enemy!
[08:25] ---
Got it? While I seal his magic...
[08:30] ---
You're leaving him to me?!
[08:32] ---
Don't get mad. Wave Boost!
[08:35] ---
Magic sealing...
[08:37] ---
Crap! Then I can't...
[08:40] ---
Mega Mega Jellyfish!
[08:43] ---
Wild!
[08:44] ---
Quatro Puppy's Novali is incapacitated!
[08:48] ---
Lamia Scale gains a point, which
puts them in 3rd place alone!
SIGN 1st Place: Fairy Tail 2nd Place: Sabertooth 3rd Place: Lamia Scale 4th Place: Mermaid Heel 5th Place: Blue Pegasus 6th Place: Quatro Puppy
[08:54] ---
We had to run into women? How unlucky.
[08:55] ---
If that's how you feel,
you can always hold back.
[08:58] ---
Nope. We're gonna go all out.
[09:01] ---
Don't hold it against us, okay?
[09:02] ---
Wouldn't have it any other way!
[09:04] ---
Aerial Fourze!
[09:06] ---
White Fang!
[09:09] ---
Oh, my! Mermaid Heel's Arania
and Beth are both incapacitated!
[09:15] ---
Blue Pegasus gains two points,
bringing their total to 32 points!
SIGN Blue Pegasus
[09:20] ---
All right, the scores are on the move!
[09:23] ---
Unlike the members of Fairy Tail,
who are still just standing there!
[09:26] ---
Hey, Erza!
[09:28] ---
Get out there and take down the enemy!
[09:30] ---
This is so irritating!
[09:32] ---
Whoa! In the meantime,
Lamia is crushing Puppy!
[09:38] ---
What's wrong? Is this as far as you go?
[09:40] ---
W-Wild...
[09:42] ---
Lamia Scale gets another two points.
[09:46] ---
Their total is 43 points-kabo!
[09:49] ---
While Jura, one of the Ten Great Wizard Saints,
is around, I can't picture Lamia losing!
[09:53] ---
Somebody take him down!
[09:55] ---
That's right. With Jura and Lyon
on our side, we're invincible!
[10:01] ---
Cheria is strong, too!
[10:02] ---
Don't get mad.
[10:04] ---
I don't know about that...
[10:07] ---
Uh-oh! Lamia's Toby and Novali
are suddenly face-to-face with...
[10:12] ---
...Bacchus!
[10:13] ---
We're invincible!
[10:16] ---
Two against one, huh? The odds are
against me, but my soul is trembling!
[10:23] ---
Guess we have no choice.
[10:26] ---
I'll put you into a deep sleep!
[10:35] ---
It's Sting!
[10:37] ---
Saber's Sting came out of nowhere to knock
out Bacchus, the leader of Quatro Puppy!
[10:44] ---
Sabertooth gains five points!
[10:47] ---
Our total is 49 points. In other words...
SIGN 1st Place: Sabertooth 2nd Place: Fairy Tail 3rd Place: Lamia Scale 4th Place: Mermaid Heel 5th Place: Blue Pegasus 6th Place: Quatro Puppy
[10:51] ---
They did it! Sabertooth, the
strongest guild, is in first place!
[10:59] ---
He beat 'im! Dammit!
[11:01] ---
Now the two of us have to beat him!
[11:05] ---
It smells like booze here!
[11:07] ---
My mistake! Now we're done in!
[11:09] ---
Oh, my! Kagura is here!
[11:12] ---
With Yuka and Toby out of the way,
it's a one-on-one fight with Sting!
[11:17] ---
Huh?
[11:18] ---
He's gone-kabo...
[11:20] ---
That's good. Avoid Kagura and Jura.
Let them exhaust themselves.
SIGN Mermaid Heel
[11:26] ---
Mermaid Heel gets two points
for a total of 42 points!
[11:30] ---
It seems Mermaid Heel's Millianna has
taken down Quatro Puppy's Rocker.
[11:36] ---
That's another point, bringing them up to 43!
[11:40] ---
Wow, Mermaid is really
putting the pressure on!
[11:44] ---
And I think Puppy is already wiped out?
[11:47] ---
Wild-kabo!
SIGN 1st Place: Sabertooth 2nd Place: Fairy Tail 3rd Place: Lamia Scale 4th Place: Mermaid Heel 5th Place: Blue Pegasus 6th Place: Quatro Puppy
[11:49] ---
The points are increasing at a dizzying rate!
But Fairy Tail has yet to move a muscle!
[11:55] ---
What's going on with them?!
[11:58] ---
What are they doing?!
They've gotta win to help Lucy!
[12:03] ---
That's why.
[12:05] ---
That's why they must be calm.
[12:11] ---
From all of the previous competitions,
[12:14] ---
I've observed the enemies' fighting strength,
magic, psychology, and behavioral patterns.
[12:21] ---
I took it all into account and ran hundreds
of millions of battle simulations in my head.
[12:25] ---
Um...
[12:26] ---
Number One, what...?
[12:28] ---
Their movements, predictions
and results, locations.
[12:34] ---
It's all gone according to my calculations.
[12:38] ---
I've already told them the strategy.
[12:50] ---
Lead your comrades to victory...
[12:53] ---
That's my war.
[12:56] ---
War?
[12:59] ---
Begin Operation: Fairy Star!
[13:03] ---
Roger!
[13:05] ---
Finally! Fairy Tail has
finally started to move!
[13:11] ---
Lucky. I wanted to see
the final battle, too...
[13:17] ---
Hey, what do you want? And who are you?!
[13:21] ---
Intruders. I'm sure they've
come to save that Fairy girl.
[13:25] ---
Fairy Tail?
[13:28] ---
His Majesty and the
Minister of Defense are both out...
[13:31] ---
We'll just have to throw 'em
in the dungeon. Take 'em.
[13:34] ---
Roger.
[13:36] ---
Hey, the dungeon is that way.
[13:40] ---
Sorry. I've just recently been posted here.
[13:48] ---
Mira-san is brilliant!
[13:52] ---
Aye!
[13:53] ---
I'm squished!
[13:54] ---
Hurry up and get me out of here!
[13:57] ---
Princess. Now might be a good opportunity...
[14:01] ---
Yes. Let's begin...
[14:04] ---
...the Eclipse 2 Project.
[14:15] ---
Everyone, spread out! Please
proceed to the next checkpoint.
[14:19] ---
N-Number One...
[14:21] ---
What's the checkpoint?
[14:23] ---
I don't know.
[14:25] ---
Fairy Tail is on the move!
[14:28] ---
Maybe that was some kind of strategy.
[14:31] ---
Even if so, I think it'll be kind of tough
for them to take back enough points-kabo.
[14:39] ---
At this point, there's a 97%
chance Rufus will make a move.
[14:47] ---
I see them.
[14:50] ---
My enemy tracking ability really
shouldn't be underestimated.
[14:54] ---
I'll take them all off the board at once.
[14:57] ---
Memory Make! Night of Falling Stars!
[15:04] ---
This magic is...
[15:05] ---
He used this magic to wipe out
the enemies on the first day.
[15:09] ---
It's beautiful-kabo!
[15:11] ---
Ignore the lights in the sky,
and in two seconds, you can dodge it.
[15:22] ---
How many times d'you think
I'd fall for the same trick?!
[15:24] ---
This magic's attribute is lightning.
Only Laxus should block it.
[15:32] ---
It doesn't even tickle.
[15:34] ---
What?! He stopped it?!
[15:37] ---
The enemy is shaken and his
thoughts are disordered.
[15:42] ---
Because of those disordered thoughts,
there's a 68% chance Rufus will try to approach us.
[15:50] ---
There's a 32% chance he'll stand
by at his current location.
[15:54] ---
But even in that case, it doesn't have
much of an effect on our strategy.
[15:59] ---
What's Number One sayin'?
[16:01] ---
You got me...
[16:02] ---
Operation: Fairy Star...?
[16:04] ---
I get that it's a strategy
to make us win, but...
[16:09] ---
At this point, Erza will make contact
with an enemy by proceeding northwest.
[16:15] ---
Uh, I'm not sure I'm ready...
[16:17] ---
Number One was right.
[16:20] ---
Erza?!
[16:21] ---
What a scary opponent.
[16:23] ---
Escape and live to fight another day!
[16:27] ---
Destroy her.
[16:28] ---
No!!
[16:31] ---
Gajeel, obliterate the enemy to the south.
[16:34] ---
I didn't know you were gonna ambush me!
[16:37] ---
Sorry, bro!
[16:39] ---
All right. Wanna attack me in order?
Simultaneously? I'm okay with either way.
[16:44] ---
Hibiki, you get out of here.
[16:47] ---
Ren!
[16:48] ---
I'll stop this guy!
[16:51] ---
You can stop this?!
[16:53] ---
Fairy Tail has someone who trumps
the calculations of my Archive?!
[16:58] ---
That's right.
[17:00] ---
Another ambush?!
[17:04] ---
Gray, after you take out the enemy who
escaped to the water fountain plaza,
[17:08] ---
go directly to point B4.
SIGN 1st Place: Fairy Tail 2nd Place: Sabertooth 3rd Place: Lamia Scale 4th Place: Mermaid Heel 5th Place: Blue Pegasus 6th Place: Quatro Puppy
[17:11] ---
Oh, boy! After getting a succession of points,
Fairy Tail has tied it up with Sabertooth!
[17:16] ---
What spirit-kabo!
[17:19] ---
Number One's strategy is right on target!
[17:24] ---
Seriously?!
[17:25] ---
Juvia, scan for enemies while supporting
the rear guard! Laxus, continue to F8!
[17:30] ---
Erza, go to S5. There's
enemy movement in that area!
[17:35] ---
I just remembered your
nickname, Number One...
[17:40] ---
With that genius eye for strategy, you
attained victory in a number of wars!
[17:47] ---
The Fairy Tactician!
[17:50] ---
That girl can do anything!
[17:52] ---
She isn't just a soothing presence.
[17:55] ---
Maybe you see her like that,
but she did create Fairy Tail...
[17:59] ---
Yeah, although now she's a ghost...
[18:02] ---
Ichiya-san, I'm sorry...
[18:05] ---
Men... Never fear! Leave the rest to me...
[18:12] ---
You were wide open.
[18:13] ---
Jura of the Ten Great Wizard Saints gets 5 points
for taking out Ichiya, the leader of Blue Pegasus!
[18:19] ---
Befitting one of the strongest
wizards in this tournament-kabo!
[18:25] ---
And my Cheria-tan gave the
boot to Mermaid Heel's Risley,
[18:31] ---
tying them for first place
with 49 points, too!
SIGN 1st Place: Fairy Tail 1st Place: Sabertooth 1st Place: Lamia Scale 4th Place: Mermaid Heel 5th Place: Blue Pegasus 6th Place: Quatro Puppy
[18:35] ---
That's my Cheria-tan!
[18:37] ---
Cheria-tan...?
[18:41] ---
Well, that aside, it's really heating up here
with three teams tied for first place!
[18:48] ---
Yes. I suppose Blue Pegasus
is also wiped out.
[18:51] ---
The numbers have really
been thinned out-kabo!
[18:55] ---
I predict a fierce battle from here on out.
[18:57] ---
Hey, Number One, what are they
ultimately gonna do about Jura?
[19:02] ---
Have you given thought to him?
[19:05] ---
I've thought about him, but I couldn't
come up with a way to deal with him.
[19:09] ---
That shows how exceptionally strong Jura is.
[19:14] ---
I'm participating on Obaba's orders,
but my blood is boiling.
[19:32] ---
Lucy!
[19:35] ---
Lucy!
[19:40] ---
Natsu! Wendy! Mira-san, too! I...
[19:46] ---
Sorry!
[19:48] ---
We're here, too!
[19:49] ---
Everyone!
[19:51] ---
You look good, anyway.
[19:52] ---
Huh?
[19:54] ---
How did you get in here?
[19:56] ---
Never mind that, just back up!
[20:04] ---
He did it!
[20:04] ---
I knew he could!
[20:06] ---
As expected...
[20:08] ---
Here, we brought a change of clothes.
[20:10] ---
Thanks, everyone!
[20:12] ---
Aren't you hungry?
[20:13] ---
We have some for you too, Yukino-san.
[20:15] ---
There's fish, too!
[20:17] ---
I'm fine.
[20:19] ---
No peeking, Lily!
[20:21] ---
Why me?!
[20:22] ---
Now we just have to think of a way to escape.
[20:25] ---
If possible, we should slip out of the
palace without attracting anyone's attention.
[20:29] ---
Wait a second. They still have our keys.
[20:32] ---
First, we have to look for that
guy with the scarred nose...
[20:36] ---
Hey!
[20:40] ---
Everyone!
[20:41] ---
The floor!
[20:42] ---
What is this?!
[20:43] ---
I'm still getting dressed!
[20:53] ---
Heavy...
[20:54] ---
Sorry. I've been eating more recently...
[20:58] ---
Ow...
[21:00] ---
What the hell is this?
[21:03] ---
Welcome to Hell Palace.
[21:06] ---
Who are you?
[21:07] ---
You fell right into the trap.
[21:11] ---
Trap, you say?
[21:12] ---
Look around you. This is the
capital of death, Hell Palace.
[21:17] ---
The final freedom, where
all criminals end up.
[21:20] ---
However, no one has ever gotten out.
[21:25] ---
Rot down there, rebels!
[21:28] ---
Who the hell are you?!
[21:31] ---
I'm Hisui E. Fiore, the princess
of the kingdom of Fiore!
[21:35] ---
Then she's the princess of this palace?
[21:38] ---
Scary...
[21:39] ---
Dammit! Where's the friggin' exit?!
[21:43] ---
I can't even see an entrance,
let alone the exit.
[21:46] ---
What should we do?!
[21:48] ---
Excellent job, Princess!
[21:50] ---
Even though His Majesty is out,
you protected the castle wonderfully!
[21:53] ---
Hooray! Hooray! Three
cheers for the princess!
[21:58] ---
The Grand Magic Games continue
to be a breathtaking battle!
[22:01] ---
And I predict the fighting
is only going to get fiercer!
[22:06] ---
I was told I'd meet you if I came here.
Chalk up another one for Number One.
[22:11] ---
I almost forgot about you.
[22:16] ---
Will you help me remember?
[22:19] ---
Don't bother racking your brain about it.
This is the end of the line for you.
[23:56] ---
The final battle of the Grand
Magic Games has begun at last!
[23:59] ---
So Gray's opponent is Rufus
from Sabertooth, huh?
[24:02] ---
I hope Gray will be okay.
He lost against that guy last time.
[24:06] ---
Fairy Tail wizards don't lose
against the same opponent twice.
[24:09] ---
This time, I know he'll win!
[24:11] ---
Yeah, that's right! We need
to believe in our comrades!
[24:15] ---
Next time: Gray vs Rufus!
[24:17] ---
Hey, Gray! Don't have a hard fight
against that guy! Just kick his ass!
[24:22] ---
You can do it, Gray!
