[00:10] ---
    What the hell?
[00:11] ---
    It's starting to change form.
[00:21] ---
    Maybe it's powered up?
[00:25] ---
    Be careful, everyone.
    It's gonna throw something at us.
[00:40] ---
    What's it doing?! At this rate,
    the Celestial Spirit World...
[00:44] ---
    Yeah. It doesn't look like we have time
    to wait for Natsu and Happy to come back.
[00:50] ---
    Anyway, let's beat that thing...
    and gamble that they'll be back by then!
[00:54] ---
    I don't mind gambles like that.
[00:57] ---
    If our positions were reversed,
    he would do the same thing.
[02:38] ---
    Hey, Natsu...
[02:39] ---
    Not that I'm complaining about
    diving into this creature,
[02:42] ---
    but it's too dark to see anything!
[02:45] ---
    I smell Loke and the others, but I can't
    really tell the direction it's comin' from.
[02:49] ---
    Oh, no... You don't mean
    they've been absorbed?
[02:52] ---
    That's possible, but I sense they're
    still alive. The others, too.
[03:03] ---
    So much space! It seems like we're in another
     place altogether, not inside its stomach.
[03:09] ---
    Hey, Loke! Can you hear me?!
[03:16] ---
    Believe!
[03:21] ---
    Well?
[03:22] ---
    I still can't really tell.
    Their scent is comin' from all over.
[03:27] ---
    Then how should we look for them?!
[03:30] ---
    The tried-and-true method. Find somethin'
    that looks breakable and break it!
[03:41] ---
    What was that?!
[03:43] ---
    That was close.
[03:45] ---
    Wha...?!
[03:46] ---
    We're between rocks and a hard place!
[03:49] ---
    Damn things!
    Wing Slash of the Fire Dragon!
[03:59] ---
    Look, Natsu! Something shiny!
[04:01] ---
    I can hear sounds coming from there, too!
[04:07] ---
    Their scent!
[04:09] ---
    It's that way, right? Let's go, Natsu!
[04:15] ---
    Now what?!
[04:18] ---
    Maybe it's like an immune system attacking
    bacteria that enters the body.
[04:23] ---
    Who're you callin' bacteria?!
[04:48] ---
    Dammit! It's attacking
    so we can't get in close.
[04:53] ---
    Yeah. If we can somehow take out
    those energy-generating stalks...
[05:03] ---
    It's in pain... Or more like,
    it doesn't like something?
[05:07] ---
    Gotta be Natsu.
[05:08] ---
    Raisin' hell from the inside.
[05:14] ---
    Natsu! Behind you!
[05:16] ---
    This guy's stubborn!
[05:18] ---
    Iron Fist of the Fire Dragon!
[05:26] ---
    It's attacking even more fiercely!
[05:28] ---
    At any rate, it's a pain in the ass
    to work in here when it's so dark!
[05:34] ---
    What the...?!
[05:35] ---
    It seems sentient...
[05:39] ---
    Why, you...
[05:42] ---
    It's just playing with us!
[05:45] ---
    It can go to hell!
[05:49] ---
    Tryin' to make fools out of us?!
    I'll beat the crap outta you!
[05:53] ---
    Roar of the Fire Dragon!
[05:58] ---
    Natsu!
[05:59] ---
    I know!
[06:01] ---
    Roar of the Fire Dragon!
[06:09] ---
    Eat this! Club of the Iron Dragon!
[06:18] ---
    Hey, did you see that? I cracked it!
[06:21] ---
    Focusing our attacks on one spot
    seems to be working little by little!
[06:26] ---
    Gajeel! Gray!
[06:29] ---
    Lucy!
[06:35] ---
    Just one more push!
[06:36] ---
    Swing!
[06:38] ---
    Yes!
[06:39] ---
    That's one!
[06:40] ---
    Let's keep it up and cut 'em all off!
[06:45] ---
    We've still got a lot left! Next!
[06:47] ---
    Yeah!
[06:50] ---
    Hey, Natsu, is it just me,
     or is it getting a little brighter in here?
[06:53] ---
    Huh? And it's not attackin' like it was...
[06:57] ---
    Maybe everyone outside is pitching in.
[07:01] ---
    Yeah!
[07:05] ---
    Uh-oh! They're starting to discharge
    energy! Everyone, dodge!
[07:08] ---
    Dodge how?!
[07:14] ---
    For cryin' out loud!
[07:17] ---
    Club of the Iron Dragon!
[07:19] ---
    It seems its attacks aren't as
    powerful as they were before.
[07:24] ---
    Then our attacks are working!
[07:28] ---
    So let's keep at it!
[07:29] ---
    Yeah!
[07:31] ---
    Wait for me, everyone!
[07:56] ---
    Natsu, is it gonna be okay?
[07:57] ---
    Aw, come on. This ain't nothin'.
[08:00] ---
    It's a lot brighter now.
[08:03] ---
    Over there! Their scent is getting stronger.
[08:06] ---
    It's comin' from over there!
[08:08] ---
    Let's go, Natsu!
[08:10] ---
    Yeah!
[08:23] ---
    Gray! Hang in there!
[08:24] ---
    Crap. That was nothin'.
[08:27] ---
    Natsu's still wreaking havoc
    on the inside, right?
[08:30] ---
    I'm not gonna let him, of all people,
    get all the glory!
[08:36] ---
    Natsu, what's that?
[08:39] ---
    There. That's where Loke and the others are.
[08:43] ---
    It's so bright! And kind of hot!
[08:46] ---
    Never mind that! Let's go, Happy!
[08:48] ---
    Aye, sir!
[08:50] ---
    Ice Impact!
[09:02] ---
    We only have a few of those
    stalks left! Anyone seen Natsu?!
[09:05] ---
    They haven't come out yet!
[09:07] ---
    Sheesh! How long is he gonna
    rock 'n' roll in there?!
[09:10] ---
    Natsu...
[09:14] ---
    What is this?!
[09:15] ---
    What's going on here?
[09:22] ---
    Beardie...
[09:23] ---
    If the Celestial Spirit King
    is being held captive...
[09:28] ---
    ...then this is its core.
[09:38] ---
    What the hell is goin' on here?
[09:40] ---
    This must be its core!
[09:43] ---
    Hey, wake up, Beardie!
[09:50] ---
    Look, Natsu! It's getting worse!
[09:52] ---
    Beardie is bein' dragged down!
     But not for long!
[09:55] ---
    The chains! Natsu, you've
    gotta break the chains!
[09:59] ---
    On it! Crushing Fang of the Fire Dragon!
[10:03] ---
    Roar of the Fire Dragon!
[10:09] ---
    No good. You didn't even make a scratch.
[10:11] ---
    Looks like this is gonna take
    some time to cut through 'em.
[10:15] ---
    They're starting to move again!
[10:17] ---
    Dammit! We ain't got time for this!
[10:19] ---
    At this rate, he'll be sucked into the core!
[10:21] ---
    I'm not gonna let Beardie become a meal!
[10:24] ---
    Pull! Harder!
[10:27] ---
    Aye, sir!
[10:35] ---
    It's shooting sparks!
[10:39] ---
    Loke! Is that you?!
[10:43] ---
    Do not interfere, human.
[10:45] ---
    Loke!
[10:47] ---
    Hey, Natsu, I just noticed something.
[10:50] ---
    There are 13 chains holding the
    Celestial Spirit King captive.
[10:54] ---
    You mean representing Loke,
    Ophiuchus, and the others?
[10:57] ---
    I mean the 12 Zodiac Celestial Spirits
    turned into those chains.
[11:01] ---
    It's all for the sake of
    the Celestial Spirit King.
[11:05] ---
    It is all for the sake of
    the Celestial Spirit King.
[11:08] ---
    What should we do?!
[11:20] ---
    Now what?!
[11:22] ---
    Even though we destroyed all of those stems!
[11:24] ---
    Is it drawing on something to gain power?
[11:27] ---
    Hey! Salamander! What the hell
     are you doin' in there?!
[11:31] ---
    This isn't good. It's trying
    to change forms again.
[11:35] ---
    If we don't stop it now...
[11:38] ---
    We have to do something
    to stop it, but what?!
[11:43] ---
    Happy... I'm gonna do whatever
    it takes to wake him up.
[11:47] ---
    You stay here.
[11:50] ---
    Don't interfere, human.
[11:53] ---
    This is all for the sake of
    the Celestial Spirit King.
[11:56] ---
    This is all for the sake of
    the Celestial Spirit King.
[11:58] ---
    You should leave here, human.
[12:01] ---
    What do they mean by that?
[12:03] ---
    Who cares? Take me down!
[12:05] ---
    Aye, sir!
[12:10] ---
    Hey. You can hear me, can't you?
[12:13] ---
    I'm gonna wake you up if
    it's the last thing I do.
[12:16] ---
    I'm not gonna let you put
    Lucy through this ever again.
[12:19] ---
    Lucy's an old friend of yours, right?
[12:23] ---
    The next time you make her cry, there'll
    be hell to pay. Remember that, Beardie!
[12:28] ---
    Natsu... What are you gonna do?
[12:33] ---
    Erza, what about Natsu and Happy?
[12:35] ---
    They haven't come out yet. But...
[12:38] ---
    We gotta do this now,
     before it attacks again!
[12:40] ---
    Get the hell outta there, Salamander!
[12:45] ---
    Natsu!
[13:00] ---
    W-What are you doing?!
    You can't eat that stuff!
[13:05] ---
    It'll do more than
    give you an upset stomach!
[13:12] ---
    Come and get me!
[13:13] ---
    Erza!
[13:14] ---
    Idiot! Get outta the way!
[13:19] ---
    I can't hear their voices...
[13:21] ---
    ...but I have faith in them.
[13:24] ---
    I have faith that Natsu and Happy
    will save our friends!
[13:29] ---
    Natsu and the others will all come back!
    That's another reason we're gonna take you down!
[13:50] ---
    Natsu!
[13:52] ---
    That's totally reckless! You don't
    even know what that stuff is!
[14:00] ---
    Eatin' that junk makes me
    feel stronger than ever!
[14:02] ---
    No way!
[14:03] ---
    Get back, Happy!
    I'm gonna blow that thing up!
[14:05] ---
    All right!
[14:16] ---
    Look! The light got dimmer!
[14:19] ---
    I'll take it!
[14:21] ---
    Dragon Slayer's Secret Art!
[14:22] ---
    Planetary Flames! Exploding Flame Edge!
[14:55] ---
    Natsu!
[14:57] ---
    Natsu!
[15:04] ---
    Lucy...
[15:20] ---
    Natsu!
[15:24] ---
    Erza!
[15:25] ---
    You did great, Natsu.
[15:31] ---
    The Celestial Spirit King!
SIGN    Star
[15:44] ---
    Look, Natsu! The Celestial Spirit World
    went back to normal!
[15:48] ---
    Yeah.
[15:49] ---
    Thanks, Natsu and Happy!
[15:52] ---
    Thanks to you guys, too.
[15:54] ---
    I'm the one who's grateful!
    Even though you were reckless...
[15:57] ---
    Anyway, the important thing is
    that you're safe.
[15:59] ---
    Yeah!
[16:00] ---
    Ow...
[16:03] ---
    I still hurt in places.
[16:05] ---
    That's what you get for plunging
    into its stomach at the last minute!
[16:08] ---
    Getting to be the big hero!
[16:12] ---
    Where's everyone who was
    turned into constellations?
[16:13] ---
    Right here!
[16:14] ---
    Everyone!
[16:16] ---
    Sheesh! I never want to
    go through that again!
[16:18] ---
    Gray-sama!
[16:20] ---
    It wasn't bad being a
    constellation for a change.
[16:23] ---
    Gray-sama, let's become a
    constellation together next time!
[16:27] ---
    Why would I want to do that?
[16:29] ---
    Carla! I did my best for you,
[16:32] ---
    and beat up that gigantic thing!
[16:35] ---
    So what happened with the Celestial Spirits?
[16:37] ---
    That's right.
    Where are Loke and the others?
[16:40] ---
    Don't tell me we were too late...
[16:44] ---
    We changed back into our normal forms.
[16:47] ---
    I'm sure that somewhere in
    the Celestial Spirit World...
[16:50] ---
    But still...
[16:51] ---
    Yes.
[16:53] ---
    This is the true Celestial Spirit World.
[16:57] ---
    It's so beautiful!
[17:03] ---
    Hey!
[17:04] ---
    Hey, look!
[17:08] ---
    Pisces! Libra!
[17:11] ---
    Everyone! You've changed back to normal!
[17:19] ---
    Virgo! You really are your normal self...
[17:24] ---
    I don't know why you're crying...
[17:28] ---
    Did something happen, Princess?
[17:30] ---
    I finally get to hear those words
     from your mouth!
[17:33] ---
    Maybe you don't remember anything?
[17:36] ---
    I get to see your nice body even when you
     don't have something for me to do?!
[17:41] ---
    Mooo! You're the best, Lucy-san!
[17:43] ---
    Um...
[17:44] ---
    I didn't hear anything
    about a get-together...
[17:50] ---
    Hi, Loke!
[17:51] ---
    Hi, Natsu! Long time no see.
[17:53] ---
    What the hell?! You don't remember anything?!
[17:56] ---
    Remember what?
[17:57] ---
    Then you don't remember acting stuck-up
    and saying things like, "I hate women"?
[18:03] ---
    Me? Oh, please!
[18:05] ---
    I would never say anything like that! Right?
[18:10] ---
    Pretty convenient that they've
    forgotten everything...
[18:13] ---
    Ah, well...
[18:18] ---
    Old... friends...
[18:25] ---
    The Celestial Spirit King!
    Maybe you don't remember anything either?
[18:29] ---
    Hey! So you're all right, Beardie!
[18:34] ---
    I sense...
[18:37] ---
    ...that I had a long, dark evil dream,
[18:42] ---
    but that is all.
[18:45] ---
    And now, it is gone.
[18:50] ---
    So you don't remember!
[18:52] ---
    However, old friends,
[18:55] ---
    this dark dream that came from afar...
[19:00] ---
    ...was like a gust of pale, nostalgic wind...
[19:04] ---
    ...blowing through my inner world.
[19:10] ---
    I do not know why...
[19:14] ---
    ...but for some reason,
    these words come to mind.
[19:18] ---
    "Thank you for everything."
[19:22] ---
    Go ahead, Princess.
[19:23] ---
    Yes.
[19:28] ---
    Celestial Spirit King!
[19:30] ---
    My name is Hisui E. Fiore.
[19:33] ---
    As the daughter of the king of Fiore...
[19:36] ---
    No, as a Celestial Spirit Wizard,
    I deeply apologize to you.
[19:42] ---
    It's all... It's all my...
[19:46] ---
    You did what you did
[19:48] ---
    to save my old friends' world
    from an awful predicament.
[19:53] ---
    Why must you feel regret for that?
[19:59] ---
    Perhaps we were turned into prisoners
[20:04] ---
    because of our own weakness.
[20:08] ---
    But...
[20:09] ---
    Let us look to the stars for
    guidance in everything.
[20:15] ---
    Grin!
[20:19] ---
    Okay!
[20:22] ---
    Now, you should go, old friends.
[20:29] ---
    Princess...
[20:31] ---
    What's this?
[20:32] ---
    This is my key. Please accept it again.
[20:41] ---
    I look forward to working with you again.
[20:44] ---
    Punishment, right, Princess?
[20:46] ---
    And here are our keys.
[20:48] ---
    Call us anytime!
[20:49] ---
    We'll come running for your sake, Lucy.
[20:52] ---
    Indeed, as it were-moshimoshi.
[20:54] ---
    Lucy-san moooves me!
[20:56] ---
    Perhaps you would allow me
    to recite my poetry again...
[21:05] ---
    Are you angry again?
[21:07] ---
    No. I guess I gave you a hard time.
[21:12] ---
    But I have no memory of it.
    I feel like such a loser.
[21:17] ---
    That's not like you!
[21:24] ---
    Thanks!
[21:32] ---
    When we returned to Magnolia,
[21:34] ---
    all of the abnormal phenomena had died down.
[21:39] ---
    I think the Celestial Spirit King
    told us we should go
[21:44] ---
    because there was no time difference
    with the Human World
[21:46] ---
    while their world was being restored, so
    we could get back home without a time gap.
[21:52] ---
    Everyone did get home safely.
[21:56] ---
    Kabo!
[21:58] ---
    And we soon fell back into the
    rhythm of our daily lives.
[22:03] ---
    But one thing was different.
    Or rather, it had changed.
[22:09] ---
    That's...
[22:14] ---
    ...my feelings for the Celestial Spirits,
    which are even stronger than before.
[22:21] ---
    Right, Puru?
[23:55] ---
    Natsu, it's unusual to see you with Asuka.
[23:58] ---
    Yeah, Alzack and Bisca
    asked me to babysit her.
[24:02] ---
    I hear kids are reckless,
    so it's probably tough on you.
[24:05] ---
    No, not at all!
[24:06] ---
    I guess not for you, Natsu!
[24:07] ---
    It's adults who are reckless!
[24:09] ---
    Not what I meant. You're still a child yourself,
     so you're good at playing with kids.
[24:13] ---
    I ain't no kid!
[24:15] ---
    Next time: What the True Heart Spins!
[24:18] ---
    Since I'm an adult, how about
    I babysit the both of you?
[24:21] ---
    I said, I ain't no kid!
