[00:01] ---
    Hey, all you viewers out there!
[00:03] ---
    When you're watchin' Fairy Tail, make
    sure to keep the room nice and bright,
[00:07] ---
    and sit back from the screen, 'kay?
[00:14] ---
    You killed Karen, your owner?
[00:21] ---
    Spirits who kill their masters
    cannot return to the Spirit World.
[00:25] ---
    I will now start to disappear.
[00:28] ---
    In front of her grave...
[00:31] ---
    But, that's...
[00:54] [SONG] ---
    It'll be all right! I'll yell it out countless times.
[00:58] [SONG] ---
    I believe your every tomorrow will be shining.
[01:03] [SONG] ---
    The intersection of all people
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    whose dreams have come true is one point:
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    Never giving up. And that's why we're not gonna lose!
[01:13] [SONG] ---
    When it seems like you'll be blown away by the headwinds,
[01:18] [SONG] ---
    grasp this hand, try to take a chance.
[01:20] [SONG] ---
    Because you're not alone anymore, got it?
[01:27] [SONG] ---
    Go forward, more and more!
[01:29] [SONG] ---
    Don't give up on your awesome dream!
[01:31] [SONG] ---
    That's right, don't cry!
[01:32] [SONG] ---
    Move on, my way!
[01:34] [SONG] ---
    Now, with the light shining down upon you.
[01:36] [SONG] ---
    Don't even think about something like giving up!
[01:38] [SONG] ---
    Even if you trade being hurt again for strength.
[01:41] [SONG] ---
    Your eyes, always looking straight ahead,
[01:46] [SONG] ---
    can surely see the light!
[02:08] ---
    It all started three years ago...
[02:11] ---
    Sorry, I'm heading to the spa now.
[02:15] ---
    You be good boys and run home now.
[02:17] ---
    Hey, what about our date today?
[02:17] ---
    What's with her?
[02:18] ---
    She's got another harem?
[02:20] ---
    Ugh.
[02:23] ---
    Oh, Karen my dear, you're back?
[02:25] ---
    If I must...
[02:28] ---
    Gate of the Ram, I open thee!
[02:31] ---
    Aries!
[02:35] ---
    Um... Did you call me?
[02:38] ---
    I'm sorry...
[02:40] ---
    Oh-boy!
[02:40] ---
    She's fluffy and cute!
[02:40] ---
    There she is!
[02:42] ---
    Aries!
[02:43] ---
    Do me a favor and keep them company, 'kay?
[02:46] ---
    B-But, I...
[02:48] ---
    I'm sorry!
[02:49] ---
    Fine by me.
[02:49] ---
    Let's play, fluffy-wuffy...
[02:51] ---
    I'm not a spirit for entertaining men, though...
[02:56] ---
    Are you disobeying my orders, huh?
[02:59] ---
    I'm sorry!
[03:01] ---
    Okay, then it's settled!
[03:02] ---
    Let's play, Aries!
[03:03] ---
    Let's go for a drive in my magic wheels!
[03:07] ---
    The Spirit King!
[03:12] ---
    Honestly, when a spirit starts
    talking back to her master...
[03:16] ---
    What's the world coming to?
[03:18] ---
    Karen, deary... Don't go
    treating your spirits so badly.
[03:24] ---
    I'm free to use my property
    as I see fit, aren't I?
[03:29] ---
    Little Aries seems like she's suffering.
[03:33] ---
    Like when you used her as a shield to
    block the opposing wizard's attack...
[03:41] ---
    I'm sorry!
[03:45] ---
    Suffering? Spirits don't
    have feelings like that.
[03:49] ---
    They're just tools.
[03:51] ---
    Karen!
[03:53] ---
    Spirits are living things, too!
[03:55] ---
    Treat them poorly, and you'll
    be the one suffering next!
[04:04] ---
    Don't bring your petty grievances to the master!
[04:07] ---
    No! I didn't say a thing!
[04:11] ---
    I'm sorry...
[04:12] ---
    Making Master Bob angry at
    me is no laughing matter!
[04:18] ---
    I-I didn't... I'm sorry...
[04:20] ---
    Playing innocent, are you?
[04:23] ---
    What are you going to do?
[04:24] ---
    As punishment, I will have you stay
    in the human world for seven days.
[04:30] ---
    Seven days? But you don't have that
    sort of magical power, Madame Karen.
[04:33] ---
    I'm sorry!
[04:34] ---
    I wouldn't underestimate me if I were you.
[04:37] ---
    You'd do better to worry about yourself.
[04:41] ---
    I wonder what'll happen to a Spirit that
    stays in the human world for seven days?
[04:46] ---
    I'm curious...
[04:48] ---
    P-Please stop...
[04:50] ---
    I'm sorry.
[04:54] ---
    Running away?
[04:55] ---
    It's no use! I'll call you back
    as many times as it takes!
[04:59] ---
    You're wrong. I forcibly
    switched places with her.
[05:02] ---
    It's you...
[05:03] ---
    Let it go, Karen.
[05:06] ---
    Leo, the Lion.
[05:09] ---
    That's how I was back then.
[05:11] ---
    Aries and I were both bound
    by contract to Karen.
[05:17] ---
    How dare you open the gate on your own!
[05:20] ---
    I'm a spirit designed for
    battle and quite tough.
[05:24] ---
    I can overlook a bit of mistreatment.
[05:28] ---
    But if you continue to do such horrible
    things to Aries, I will not forgive you.
[05:35] ---
    And what do you, a spirit, plan to do about it?
[05:38] ---
    I think I should just tell
    you straight out today...
[05:41] ---
    I want you to release Aries
    and me from our contracts.
[05:45] ---
    What?
[05:47] ---
    I cannot bear watching your evil actions.
[05:50] ---
    The other spirits fear their keys
    coming into your possession.
[05:54] ---
    Shut up! Silence!
[05:55] ---
    You are a disgrace to Celestial Wizards.
[05:58] ---
    Go back!
[05:59] ---
    Gate of the Lion, close!
[06:09] ---
    Close!
[06:10] ---
    Close!
[06:11] ---
    Go back, Leo!
[06:18] ---
    Why can't I do a forced closure?
[06:20] ---
    Until you release us from your contract,
    I have no intention of going back.
[06:26] ---
    While I am here, you can't
    call any other spirits.
[06:30] ---
    With your magical power, you aren't able to
    call more than one spirit at the same time after all.
[06:36] ---
    That'll be quite a problem for you, yes?
[06:39] ---
    I wonder if this will go as you plan?
[06:43] ---
    Your magical power isn't infinite, either.
[06:46] ---
    In ten days, my magical power will be used up,
    and you'll be forced to go back to the Spirit World.
[06:53] ---
    No. I used my own magical power to come here.
[06:57] ---
    Your magical power is irrelevant.
[07:00] ---
    I'll stay here no matter how many days it takes.
[07:02] ---
    There are some ruins to the west of town.
[07:05] ---
    If you reconsider, come see me.
[07:15] ---
    How dare he!
[07:22] ---
    Come back, Leo!
[07:24] ---
    Aren't you basically at your limit?
[07:27] ---
    The Lion is the leader of the 12 Zodiac Gates.
[07:31] ---
    Things that the other spirits
    can't handle, I can.
[07:35] ---
    Until you release us from our contracts,
    I won't leave the human world.
[07:40] ---
    You've got to be kidding me!
[07:41] ---
    You expect me to give up two
    of the 12 Zodiac gate keys?
[07:45] ---
    With you, I can earn a whole lot more money!
[07:49] ---
    Go away.
[07:51] ---
    When you feel like releasing us, come back.
[07:54] ---
    Why, you...
[08:01] ---
    Come on...
[08:02] ---
    It's been a month already.
[08:05] ---
    I can't do any work with you doing this!
[08:09] ---
    I promise... I won't mistreat Aries any more.
[08:14] ---
    Promise?
[08:15] ---
    You're a liar.
[08:17] ---
    If you really regret what
    you did, you'd let us free.
[08:23] ---
    Damn you!
[08:24] ---
    Go to hell and die!
[08:26] ---
    If you disappear, I can call Aries again!
[08:29] ---
    It's all 'cause you're here!
[08:32] ---
    This is all your fault, damn you!
[08:40] ---
    I'm getting used to being in the Human World.
[08:46] ---
    I can't really stop my life-force from
    eroding, but I'm not suffering like before.
[08:54] ---
    It's been three months...
[08:56] ---
    Maybe I should forgive Karen now.
[08:59] ---
    If she mistreats Aries again,
    I can always save her once more.
[09:14] ---
    It can't be!
[09:16] ---
    She took on a job recklessly
    without my permission.
[09:22] ---
    She must have been horribly impatient
    not being able to work for three months.
[09:27] ---
    But Karen shouldn't have been
    able to call any spirits!
[09:31] ---
    And yet...
[09:33] ---
    A wizard using a large amount
    of magical power at once
[09:37] ---
    should be able to call forth
    two spirits at the same time.
[09:41] ---
    Karen was betting on that.
[09:44] ---
    But in the end her body wasn't able to take it.
[09:50] ---
    All I wanted was for Karen
    to rethink her actions...
[09:55] ---
    To realize that spirits aren't tools...
[09:59] ---
    That we have free will, that
    we have hearts of our own...
[10:04] ---
    That's all I wanted...
[10:06] ---
    This...
[10:08] ---
    This isn't what I wanted!
[10:11] ---
    Karen!
[10:13] ---
    Karen!
[10:22] ---
    That is the sin I committed.
[10:26] ---
    Human life cannot be returned once it is lost.
[10:30] ---
    The dead never return, for eternity.
[10:33] ---
    The only way to repent is
    for me to disappear myself.
[10:40] ---
    Loke, hey!
[10:43] ---
    I guess it's about time...
[10:45] ---
    Time? Time for what?
[10:47] ---
    Time for me to disappear...
[10:50] ---
    What are you talking about?
[10:54] ---
    Karen...
[11:02] ---
    Ever since that day, I've been unable
    to return to the Spirit World.
[11:06] ---
    Y-Your hand...
[11:07] ---
    It's the law of the Spirit World. The rules.
[11:11] ---
    I can't do anything about it.
[11:14] ---
    I was never able to forget
    about Karen since then.
[11:19] ---
    I tried a lot of things to get my mind
    off it, but I could never forget.
[11:26] ---
    I've simply been persisting
    until this time came.
[11:30] ---
    Until the moment I disappear
    in front of Karen's grave.
[11:34] ---
    And, at long last, the time has come.
[11:39] ---
    Thank you, Lucy, for letting me meet a truly
    wonderful Celestial Wizard in the end...
[11:45] ---
    Wait! I'll save you! Don't give up!
[11:48] ---
    Give my regards to everyone at Fairy Tail...
[11:54] ---
    No!
[11:55] ---
    Lucy...
[11:56] ---
    I won't accept this!
[11:59] ---
    If you return to the Spirit World, your
    life-force will recover really quickly!
[12:04] ---
    I'll make it so you can return!
[12:08] ---
    You can't do that...
[12:10] ---
    The law is the law...
[12:13] ---
    But... This is wrong!
[12:16] ---
    You didn't actually kill Karen!
[12:19] ---
    It was just an unfortunate accident!
[12:22] ---
    Lucy...
[12:23] ---
    Gate of the Lion, I open thee!
[12:25] ---
    Return Loke to the Spirit World!
[12:28] ---
    Open! Please!
[12:31] ---
    Open!
[12:33] ---
    Lucy... That's enough. Please stop...
[12:36] ---
    I won't stop!
[12:38] ---
    I can't stand by when a friend of
    mine is disappearing before my eyes!
[12:46] ---
    Gate of the Lion, I open thee!
[12:51] ---
    Lucy! Don't use so much
    magical power all at once!
[12:55] ---
    I said I'm going to save you, no matter what!
[12:58] ---
    I can force open the gate to
    the Spirit World... Watch me!
[13:05] ---
    Stop it!
[13:06] ---
    Gate of the Lion, I open thee!
[13:08] ---
    Open!
[13:10] ---
    It won't open!
[13:12] ---
    Spirits who let their contracted owner
    die can't go back to the Spirit World!
[13:19] ---
    Please, stop!
[13:20] ---
    You're starting to erode along with me!
[13:23] ---
    At this rate you'll disappear when I do!
[13:26] ---
    You won't die!
[13:27] ---
    I won't let you die...
[13:29] ---
    What's the point of magic to begin with
    if I can't use it protect my friends?
[13:35] ---
    Stop it!
[13:37] ---
    Don't make my crime any
    worse than it already is!
[13:41] ---
    What crime?!
[13:42] ---
    If that's the rule of the Spirit
    World, then I'll change it!
[14:08] ---
    What's that?
[14:10] ---
    It can't be...
[14:11] ---
    That's the...
[14:13] ---
    ...Spirit King?
[14:17] ---
    Why are you here?
[14:20] ---
    The King? You mean the ruler of the Spirits?
[14:24] ---
    Old friend.
[14:27] ---
    It is forbidden for we who have compacted with
    humans to kill the one who possesses the key.
[14:39] ---
    It matters not if it was direct or indirect.
[14:44] ---
    Leo the Lion, you are no longer allowed
    to return to the Spirit World.
[14:50] ---
    Hey, that's going too far!
[14:53] ---
    Don't, Lucy!
[14:55] ---
    Old friend... Human girl...
[14:59] ---
    That law shall not be changed.
[15:03] ---
    Wait, did he show himself because Lucy
    blurted out that she'd change the rule?
[15:09] ---
    Just for that, the King came himself?
[15:12] ---
    For three years... Loke's been
    suffering for three years!
[15:16] ---
    For his friend! For Aries!
[15:19] ---
    What else could he do?
[15:22] ---
    I too am pained by my old friend's wish...
[15:28] ---
    What are you talking about?
[15:30] ---
    He's not your "old" friend!
[15:32] ---
    He's your friend, right now, before your eyes!
[15:36] ---
    Listen to me, Mustache Man!
[15:39] ---
    Mustache?
[15:41] ---
    L-Lucy...
[15:42] ---
    This was an unfortunate accident.
[15:44] ---
    Loke didn't do anything wrong!
[15:47] ---
    I won't accept anything but
    his complete innocence!
[15:49] ---
    I won't accept it!
[15:53] ---
    Enough, Lucy...
[15:55] ---
    I don't want anybody to forgive me...
[15:59] ---
    I want to repent for my sins!
[16:01] ---
    I just want to disappear!
[16:07] ---
    You can't!
[16:11] ---
    You disappearing isn't
    going to bring Karen back!
[16:15] ---
    All it will do is create more sadness!
[16:20] ---
    It's not a crime!
[16:22] ---
    Caring about your friends is not a crime!
[16:26] ---
    This many spirits... All at once...
[16:29] ---
    Even Karen couldn't do this...
[16:32] ---
    If you disappear, then Aries, myself, and
    everyone else here will be filled with sadness!
[16:41] ---
    You won't be repenting for
    your sins at all that way!
[16:54] ---
    Lucy!
[16:59] ---
    All my friends came forward to
    show that they feel the same way.
[17:05] ---
    Your friends?
[17:06] ---
    If you're a spirit too, then you
    should know how Loke and Aries felt!
[17:12] ---
    Lucy, why are you forcing yourself like this?
[17:16] ---
    You want to follow in Karen's footsteps?
[17:21] ---
    If my old friend goes so far as to say that...
[17:26] ---
    Perhaps it is the law that is in error.
[17:32] ---
    Leo, who committed the crime
    for his brethren Aries.
[17:36] ---
    And you, old friend, who
    tried to save that Leo...
[17:41] ---
    Considering the beauty of that bond, I
    will make an exception for this incident.
[17:47] ---
    Leo, I give thee warrant to
    return to the Spirit World.
[17:56] ---
    You ain't so bad, Mustache Man!
[18:02] ---
    You are pardoned.
[18:04] ---
    Be grateful to the star's guidance.
[18:08] ---
    Wait, please...
[18:10] ---
    I...
[18:12] ---
    If you still wish to repent for your sins,
    I order you to aid your friend and live on.
[18:25] ---
    I believe her to be a friend of such worth.
[18:29] ---
    You should protect her with your life.
[18:42] ---
    You heard the man.
[18:57] ---
    Lucy...
[19:00] ---
    Yeah.
[19:02] ---
    Thank you, Lucy...
[19:13] ---
    A spirit?
[19:14] ---
    You're a spirit, Loke?
[19:16] ---
    Yup, that's the deal.
[19:18] ---
    So that weird feeling when we switched
    places that time was from that!
[19:23] ---
    Yup, that's what it was.
[19:24] ---
    I didn't notice at all!
[19:27] ---
    But wait... You're not a
    cow or a horse or nothin'.
[19:30] ---
    You know Virgo, Natsu. She
    has a human form, remember?
[19:34] ---
    Yeah, but she can turn into a gorilla.
[19:36] ---
    Oh, yeah. That's true.
[19:38] ---
    Loke's the Lion Spirit.
[19:40] ---
    Lion?!
[19:41] ---
    A grown-up cat!
[19:43] ---
    That's right.
[19:44] ---
    No, it's not!
[19:46] ---
    Cool...
[19:48] ---
    But are you feeling okay?
[19:51] ---
    I'm not 100% yet, but I figured
    I'd come to say hi to everyone.
[19:55] ---
    And I wanted to see Lucy
    again as soon as possible.
[19:59] ---
    He lllllikes you!
[20:01] ---
    Stop rolling your tongue!
[20:02] ---
    So let's talk, you and I, about the future!
[20:06] ---
    Hey, now!
[20:07] ---
    Man, I'm jealous.
[20:08] ---
    I wish I had a spirit.
[20:10] ---
    What kind of spirit?
[20:11] ---
    A dragon, duh!
[20:13] ---
    Then I could test out my
    Dragon Slayer magic for real!
[20:16] ---
    Spirits aren't things you
    summon to test your strength!
[20:20] ---
    That's right.
[20:21] ---
    Spirits are for spinning tales of love...
[20:22] ---
    You, go back already...
[20:24] ---
    You're still not fully recovered, right?
[20:27] ---
    Wait a second.
[20:29] ---
    Here!
[20:30] ---
    What are these?
[20:31] ---
    Tickets for a resort hotel.
[20:34] ---
    You guys really helped me out a lot.
[20:36] ---
    Fish!
[20:36] ---
    I've never stayed at a hotel as fancy as that!
[20:39] ---
    I already gave Erza hers, so please have fun.
[20:43] ---
    Hey, people!
[20:44] ---
    What are you standing around for?
[20:46] ---
    Want me to leave you behind?
[20:47] ---
    Now that's fast!
[20:49] ---
    Yeah, let's go!
[20:50] ---
    I'll head off just like this!
[20:52] ---
    Me, too!
[20:53] ---
    Idiot, I have to pack for a
    trip a little, so hold up.
[20:54] ---
    Lucy...
[20:56] ---
    It's not like my sins have
    completely disappeared,
[20:59] ---
    but you've given me the
    confidence now to move on.
[21:03] ---
    Where once I was a member of Fairy
    Tail, now I am your spirit, Lucy.
[21:09] ---
    I'll show up whenever my owner's in trouble.
[21:12] ---
    Think of me as your prince on a white horse.
[21:16] ---
    I'm not your owner.
[21:18] ---
    I'm your friend, right?
[21:20] ---
    That's right.
[21:22] ---
    From now on, let's count on each other, Lucy.
[21:25] ---
    Same to you, Loke!
[21:31] ---
    Lucy, we're leaving.
[21:33] ---
    So, Erza...
[21:35] ---
    If...
[21:37] ---
    If someone here was hurt or lost their life
    because of me, I think I'd suffer a lot like Loke.
[21:48] ---
    But, it's okay.
[21:50] ---
    Because if we all work together, we can
    overcome any trouble we might have, right?
[21:55] ---
    You couldn't have said it better.
[21:57] ---
    Yeah!
[21:59] ---
    Hey, let's hurry and go!
[22:01] ---
    Aye, sir!
[22:02] ---
    Let's party all day and night, non-stop!
[22:05] ---
    It's a favor from Loke, so we're
    going to have lots of fun!
[22:09] ---
    Aye, sir!
[22:12] ---
    There was no way I could have
    known that before long,
[22:20] ---
    Erza's smile would disappear...
[23:56] ---
    Hey, hey, Natsu!
[23:57] ---
    I'm going to head out for a bit!
[23:59] ---
    Upa!
[23:59] ---
    Wow, you're really rarin' to go.
[24:02] ---
    Where are you going?
[24:03] ---
    Aye! I'm going to Heaven on earth!
[24:05] ---
    What are you talking about?
[24:06] ---
    Did you hit your head or something?
[24:07] ---
    You'll know if you come with me.
[24:10] ---
    What's with you? You're creepin' me out...
[24:13] ---
    Next time: Tower of Heaven!
[24:16] ---
    Huh? A fish restaurant?
[24:19] ---
    This is my paradise!
[24:21] ---
    Happy, don't leave me!
[24:24] ---
