**[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?
**[00:11] ---**
Happy, where are you?
**[00:13] ---**
Happy!
**[00:18] ---**
They left me behind!
**[00:20] ---**
I have to head to where Natsu
is while I have the chance!
**[00:47] [SONG] ---**
It'll be all right! I'll yell it out countless times.
**[00:51] [SONG] ---**
I believe your every tomorrow will be shining.
**[00:56] [SONG] ---**
The intersection of all people
**[00:59] [SONG] ---**
whose dreams have come true is one point:
**[01:01] [SONG] ---**
Never giving up. And that's why we're not gonna lose!
**[01:06] [SONG] ---**
When it seems like you'll be blown away by the headwinds,
**[01:11] [SONG] ---**
grasp this hand, try to take a chance.
**[01:13] [SONG] ---**
Because you're not alone anymore, got it?
**[01:20] [SONG] ---**
Go forward, more and more!
**[01:22] [SONG] ---**
Don't give up on your awesome dream!
**[01:24] [SONG] ---**
That's right, don't cry!
**[01:25] [SONG] ---**
Move on, my way!
**[01:27] [SONG] ---**
Now, with the light shining down upon you.
**[01:29] [SONG] ---**
Don't even think about something like giving up!
**[01:31] [SONG] ---**
Even if you trade being hurt again for strength.
**[01:34] [SONG] ---**
Your eyes, always looking straight ahead,
**[01:39] [SONG] ---**
can surely see the light!
**[02:00] ---**
I'm not gonna be won over by this
kiddy kitty merchandise, you know!
**[02:11] ---**
Wait for me!
**[02:16] ---**
Voice of Darkness!
**[02:20] ---**
We rose up for our freedom, and to save Jellal.
**[02:30] ---**
Don't underestimate "Mad Dog" Wally!
**[02:32] ---**
We're tough thanks to all
that "training" you gave us!
**[02:35] ---**
D-Damn it!
**[02:47] ---**
This guy isn't sayin' a peep! What a bore...
**[02:51] ---**
You keep puttin' up a brave face, and
you'll end up like that girl from before.
**[02:56] ---**
Hey, brat!
**[02:57] ---**
Do you realize how sacred a cause
it is to erect this R-system?
**[03:02] ---**
At the moment this tower is completed,
all of you will get to go to heaven!
**[03:06] ---**
The R-system will resurrect our god!
**[03:10] ---**
Shut up, pig...
**[03:11] ---**
What did you say?
**[03:13] ---**
Let him be.
**[03:14] ---**
We're gonna have to help suppress
the rebellion this afternoon.
**[03:17] ---**
We'll continue the ceremony as many times as
it takes until you learn to revere our god!
**[03:26] ---**
God?
**[03:27] ---**
I don't need anything like that.
**[03:30] ---**
I don't need a god that
can't even save one child.
**[03:38] ---**
Hatred...
**[03:41] ---**
Hate...
**[03:43] ---**
I hate everything...
**[03:45] ---**
I hate them, and their god...
**[03:47] ---**
Everything about this world...
**[03:50] ---**
Hate! And I will devour that hatred...
**[03:56] ---**
People's hatred makes me grow stronger.
**[04:00] ---**
Who are you?
**[04:01] ---**
What amusing fools.
**[04:04] ---**
I'm right here among them...
**[04:07] ---**
Yet they trouble themselves to resurrect me?
**[04:10] ---**
To give me a body?
**[04:13] ---**
Where are you?
**[04:14] ---**
No matter how fiercely they believe,
**[04:17] ---**
one cannot sense my presence
without strong hatred.
**[04:23] ---**
Jellal...
**[04:25] ---**
You are quite the lucky one!
**[04:27] ---**
You got to meet the god that they worship so!
**[04:33] ---**
My name is Zeref!
**[04:36] ---**
My existence is hatred itself...
**[04:44] ---**
We need to liberate Sector 8 today!
**[04:46] ---**
Everyone, keep it up!
**[04:47] ---**
Impossible! The guard is too tight there!
**[04:50] ---**
But we have to hurry and save Jellal or...
**[04:54] ---**
You ain't got a prayer, Mr. Simo.
**[04:57] ---**
Erza! A-Are you in love with Jellal?
**[05:03] ---**
Why are you bringing that up now?
**[05:05] ---**
Now is not the time to...
**[05:07] ---**
I've always...
**[05:12] ---**
Simon!
**[05:15] ---**
That's...
**[05:16] ---**
Magic Troops!
**[05:19] ---**
Simon!
**[05:20] ---**
Hey, wake up!
**[05:36] ---**
Don't!
**[05:37] ---**
Everyone, don't give up!
**[05:38] ---**
You've got to fight!
**[05:40] ---**
Outta the way!
**[05:44] ---**
Wait...
**[05:45] ---**
Save... Jellal...
**[05:53] ---**
Sis!
**[05:54] ---**
Erza!
**[06:04] ---**
Grandpa Rob!
**[06:06] ---**
My magical power may have withered,
but I can still protect my friends!
**[06:11] ---**
I will not allow such young life to perish!
**[06:25] ---**
Whoa!
**[06:27] ---**
He reflected the magic back!
**[06:32] ---**
What's the matter?
**[06:34] ---**
Perhaps I have been of some use, despite
me being such a decrepit old man...
**[06:39] ---**
For a wizard, one's magical power is
the same as their life energy itself.
**[06:44] ---**
And when this old man lost his magic,
I was brought to this sorry state...
**[06:51] ---**
But, Erza, your possibilities are still endless!
**[06:56] ---**
Grandpa...
**[06:59] ---**
It's your heart.
**[07:02] ---**
Heart?
**[07:03] ---**
Right. Everything begins from
believing from your heart.
**[07:08] ---**
For example, you can think of horoscopes,
faith, and prayer as forms of magic.
**[07:15] ---**
They are miracles that only
people who believe can sense.
**[07:20] ---**
Only those who believe?
**[07:22] ---**
That's right.
**[07:24] ---**
Only those who believe in the power of
magic, believe their your own power,
**[07:28] ---**
and believe in living in harmony
with nature are able to use magic.
**[07:35] ---**
Magic, huh?
**[07:37] ---**
How amazing!
**[07:39] ---**
When I grow up, I want to become a witch
and ride on a broom and fly in the sky!
**[07:45] ---**
I think you'll be able to.
**[07:47] ---**
You'll fly free, in the wide open sky...
**[07:52] ---**
And I'll let you ride too, Grandpa!
**[07:58] ---**
I didn't think I'd see a smile
like that in a place like this.
**[08:03] ---**
Grandpa!
**[08:05] ---**
Freedom is inside of your heart.
**[08:09] ---**
There is no freedom in this world.
**[08:12] ---**
I am sure that your dream
will come true, Erza...
**[08:17] ---**
I will grant your wish!
**[08:20] ---**
Grandpa!
**[08:23] ---**
No!
**[08:27] ---**
Freedom is here.
**[08:31] ---**
Erza, retreat! Hurry!
**[08:35] ---**
Sis!
**[08:36] ---**
Er-chan!
**[09:01] ---**
Amazing...
**[09:02] ---**
Just like that...
**[09:02] ---**
Even the Magic Troops...
**[09:04] ---**
Sis can use magic?
**[09:07] ---**
This is... magic...
**[09:11] ---**
I can do this.
**[09:12] ---**
With this power, I can save Jellal!
**[09:17] ---**
Flying in the sky will have
to wait for now, Grandpa.
**[09:22] ---**
I...
**[09:24] ---**
...will gain my freedom!
**[09:27] ---**
Follow me!
**[09:32] ---**
Hey, what are we going to do?
**[09:33] ---**
Let's escape!
**[09:37] ---**
W-Wait!
**[09:39] ---**
We were just acting under orders!
**[09:42] ---**
Out of my way!
**[09:48] ---**
Jellal!
**[09:51] ---**
It's all right now!
**[09:53] ---**
It's all over!
**[09:55] ---**
We fought, just like you said to, Jellal!
**[09:57] ---**
Simon's seriously injured, and
Grandpa Rob shielded me...
**[10:03] ---**
There are a great number of other
people who sacrificed their lives.
**[10:06] ---**
But we won!
**[10:08] ---**
We've gained our freedom!
**[10:10] ---**
Let's go!
**[10:11] ---**
Wally and the others have taken their boats.
**[10:13] ---**
We can get off this island!
**[10:17] ---**
Erza...
**[10:19] ---**
There's no more running away.
**[10:22] ---**
True freedom is right here.
**[10:26] ---**
Ooh, it's a movie lacrima!
**[10:28] ---**
What's that?
**[10:30] ---**
It's a lacrima that stores the data of a movie.
**[10:32] ---**
What's a moovee?
**[10:34] ---**
A story!
**[10:35] ---**
Actors act out a drama for us to watch!
**[10:39] ---**
Well, it's the first time I
ever saw one myself though...
**[10:45] ---**
Too bad for you, Tony Joe.
**[10:47] ---**
From the moment you met me...
**[10:51] ---**
...your fate was sealed, get it?
**[10:53] ---**
How austere!
**[10:55] ---**
He's kinda hard-edged...
**[10:56] ---**
That's how a dandy should be!
**[10:58] ---**
I don't get it at all.
**[11:01] ---**
Sis is late...
**[11:04] ---**
Jella, what are you talking about?
**[11:06] ---**
Let's escape from this island together!
**[11:09] ---**
Erza, there is no freedom in this world.
**[11:13] ---**
I realized that.
**[11:16] ---**
It is not transient freedom that we require.
**[11:21] ---**
It's *true* freedom.
**[11:24] ---**
Zeref's world!
**[11:34] ---**
I can understand their feelings a bit now.
**[11:38] ---**
They were trying to resurrect
this Zeref person, see.
**[11:41] ---**
But these pitiful believers couldn't
even sense Zeref's presence.
**[11:47] ---**
Isn't that right?
**[11:49] ---**
This tower is mine.
**[11:51] ---**
I will complete it.
**[11:53] ---**
I will resurrect Zeref.
**[11:59] ---**
Magic?
**[12:01] ---**
Save me!
**[12:05] ---**
Stop it, Jellal!
**[12:07] ---**
Stop?
**[12:09] ---**
Don't you hate them, Erza?
**[12:12] ---**
I hate them, but this is...
**[12:13] ---**
That's no good!
**[12:14] ---**
You won't be able to sense Zeref like that!
**[12:18] ---**
Stop!
**[12:24] ---**
Jellal!
**[12:25] ---**
What's happened?
**[12:26] ---**
Nothing.
**[12:28] ---**
Erza, let's complete the R-system...
I mean, the Tower of Heaven, together!
**[12:35] ---**
Then we can resurrect Zeref.
**[12:38] ---**
Stop saying such crazy things!
**[12:39] ---**
We're going to get off this island!
**[12:50] ---**
Fine. If you want to go so badly, then
you can leave this island on your own.
**[12:55] ---**
On my own?
**[12:56] ---**
The rest of them are all mine.
**[12:59] ---**
Completing this tower will
take a lot of work, after all.
**[13:02] ---**
You don't have to worry.
**[13:05] ---**
I'm not like them.
**[13:07] ---**
I'll give everyone clothes, and food, and rest.
**[13:11] ---**
Fear and oppression does give rise to hatred,
but the work efficiency is far too poor.
**[13:18] ---**
What are you saying?
**[13:20] ---**
Everyone is already on the
ships, waiting for us!
**[13:24] ---**
No one is planning on coming
back here and working!
**[13:28] ---**
That's because they never explained
to us the meaning behind the work.
**[13:32] ---**
I will show them the meaning.
**[13:34] ---**
They will work for the glory
of the great Wizard Zeref!
**[13:38] ---**
But... who would choose to
continue sacrificing themselves?
**[13:40] ---**
Sacrifice?
**[13:42] ---**
That's not what I need now.
**[13:45] ---**
Zaref taught me, you see.
**[13:47] ---**
Jellal, please, open your eyes!
**[13:51] ---**
My eyes are already open.
**[13:54] ---**
I have no more need for you.
**[13:56] ---**
However I will allow you to live.
**[13:58] ---**
Since you eliminated all those
who stood in my way for me.
**[14:01] ---**
You will leave this island and have
your fill of that transient freedom.
**[14:06] ---**
Jellal...
**[14:07] ---**
But you will never speak of this to anyone.
**[14:10] ---**
If the government finds out about this Tower
of Heaven, it will be quite troublesome.
**[14:14] ---**
If you try to tell someone, I will have
to destroy this tower and everyone in it.
**[14:20] ---**
You are also forbidden to come near here.
**[14:23] ---**
If you set even one foot...
**[14:25] ---**
Yes, I think that'll do...
**[14:26] ---**
First, I will make Sho disappear...
**[14:29] ---**
Jellal...
**[14:32] ---**
That will be your freedom!
**[14:35] ---**
Live knowing that your friends'
lives hang on your shoulders, Erza!
**[15:12] ---**
I... will fight Jellal.
**[15:23] ---**
We have no other option than firing
Etherion from the Satellite Square!
**[15:30] ---**
The R-system is a forbidden magic that
must be erased from the annals of history.
**[15:34] ---**
You do understand what this
means, right everyone?
**[15:37] ---**
An attack from Etherion will
return everything to nothingness.
**[15:41] ---**
Even if there are citizens there!
**[15:43] ---**
And Jellal, your younger twin brother,
will disappear as well, you know!
**[15:48] ---**
Are you sure about that?
**[15:50] ---**
I've come to terms with that.
**[15:52] ---**
All of us came this far due
to the sacrifices of others.
**[15:56] ---**
That is the Magic World of today.
**[15:59] ---**
Elder Leiji!
**[16:00] ---**
It will go down in history that our
country committed the crime
**[16:03] ---**
of attacking the land of
Ka Elm without provocation!
**[16:07] ---**
That means we'll have to
sacrifice ourselves as well.
**[16:10] ---**
Elder Belno!
**[16:12] ---**
The dead cannot return to life!
**[16:14] ---**
When it comes time to teach the children how
precious life is, that is what we must say!
**[16:19] ---**
We must put an end to this.
**[16:21] ---**
I concur with firing Etherion.
**[16:24] ---**
Only one more...
**[16:27] ---**
Only one more, yes?
**[16:29] ---**
One more and then it is game over.
**[16:38] ---**
Fish...
**[16:39] ---**
We played our hearts out.
**[16:43] ---**
By the way... Where are we?
**[16:47] ---**
Wait a second, Erza.
**[16:49] ---**
That Zeref that was in your story...
**[16:52] ---**
Yes, you should know about Zeref too.
**[16:54] ---**
I'm pretty sure they called that monster that
came out of the Lullaby one of Zeref's demons.
**[17:00] ---**
That's not all.
**[17:02] ---**
I suspect that Deliora was
also one of the Zeref's demons.
**[17:08] ---**
And Jellal is trying to
resurrect this Zeref person?
**[17:12] ---**
I don't understand his motive.
**[17:14] ---**
Sho... One of my friends in the past...
**[17:17] ---**
He said something about when the resurrection
was complete, they'd become rulers over heaven...
**[17:22] ---**
But what I don't understand is why
your past allies turned against you.
**[17:27] ---**
Wasn't the traitor Jellal and not you, Erza?
**[17:31] ---**
He must have indoctrinated them
somehow after I disappeared.
**[17:36] ---**
But I left them here for 8 years.
**[17:40] ---**
The fact is, I did betray them.
**[17:43] ---**
But it was for their sake!
**[17:46] ---**
And yet...
**[17:46] ---**
Enough, Lucy.
**[17:50] ---**
If I can defeat Jellal, this will all be over.
**[17:54] ---**
Is that really the truth?
**[17:57] ---**
Whether I win or lose this battle,
I will vanish from this world...
**[18:05] ---**
Those words are really bothering me.
**[18:08] ---**
Sister... That story...
**[18:12] ---**
What is that supposed to mean?
**[18:14] ---**
Sho...
**[18:15] ---**
You trying to get sympathy from
your pals with that tall tale?
**[18:19] ---**
Give me a break!
**[18:20] ---**
That's not even close to the truth!
**[18:23] ---**
You blew up our ships and ran away by yourself!
**[18:27] ---**
If Jellal hadn't noticed your betrayal,
we would have all sunk into the sea!
**[18:32] ---**
Jellal told us that was the fate of those who
didn't learn the proper way to use magic!
**[18:38] ---**
You were drunk from the power of magic! You
tried to rid yourself of all of us and your past!
**[18:46] ---**
Jellal told you this?
**[18:49] ---**
Is that something the Erza
you know would have done?
**[18:56] ---**
What do you know?
**[18:58] ---**
You don't know anything about us!
**[19:03] ---**
Only Jellal's words were able to save us.
**[19:07] ---**
That's why we spent these past
8 years finishing this tower!
**[19:11] ---**
For Jellal...
**[19:13] ---**
If... it was all a lie...
**[19:18] ---**
If you are right, Sis... And Jellal is wrong...
**[19:23] ---**
That's right.
**[19:27] ---**
It's you!
**[19:28] ---**
Please wait, Gray-sama.
**[19:30] ---**
Back then, he purposefully
attacked your ice-clone.
**[19:35] ---**
What?
**[19:36] ---**
There is no way a user of darkness
techniques would not be able to notice.
**[19:40] ---**
Juvia came here to ascertain
his true intentions.
**[19:45] ---**
I see Phantom's Element 4
deserves their reputation.
**[19:49] ---**
What's going on?
**[19:51] ---**
Sho, I put on a performance to both trick
you and get them to come to the tower.
**[19:56] ---**
W-Why? Why would you...
**[20:01] ---**
Sho...
**[20:03] ---**
Everyone has been fooled by Jellal.
**[20:06] ---**
I played the fool as well
until the time was right.
**[20:09] ---**
Simon, you...
**[20:12] ---**
I believed in you, Erza.
**[20:15] ---**
I always did for these past 8 years.
**[20:21] ---**
I'm glad we could meet, Erza.
**[20:23] ---**
From the bottom of my heart...
**[20:24] ---**
Simon...
**[20:30] ---**
How...
**[20:32] ---**
How could you believe in her so much?
**[20:36] ---**
Why...
**[20:37] ---**
Why wasn't I able to believe in her?
**[20:45] ---**
Damn!
**[20:50] ---**
What is the truth?
**[20:51] ---**
What should I believe in?
**[21:00] ---**
It must be difficult to accept it all at once.
**[21:04] ---**
But let me say this much...
**[21:08] ---**
For these past 8 years, I have
never forgotten about you.
**[21:15] ---**
I couldn't do anything for you.
**[21:17] ---**
I'm sorry I was so weak...
**[21:22] ---**
But now you can do it.
**[21:25] ---**
Isn't that right?
**[21:28] ---**
I've been waiting for this
moment for a long time.
**[21:30] ---**
Waiting for a number of powerful
wizards to gather here.
**[21:33] ---**
Powerful wizards?
**[21:36] ---**
To fight Jellal.
**[21:38] ---**
We'll all work together.
**[21:46] ---**
First, we have to prevent Wally
and Salamander from clashing.
**[21:53] ---**
What's with this room?
**[21:55] ---**
It's kitty-city.
**[21:57] ---**
Ooh, I like this one!
**[22:00] ---**
It's a helmet!
**[22:03] ---**
Let's go, Happy!
**[22:05] ---**
Aye, sir!
**[22:07] ---**
Or something...
**[22:11] ---**

**[22:15] ---**

**[23:56] ---**
Okay! I win again!
**[23:58] ---**
That's 9 wins in a row.
**[24:00] ---**
Play me again!
**[24:01] ---**
This time I'm going to win, for sure!
**[24:03] ---**
Natsu, you say that every time.
**[24:06] ---**
I'm tired already.
**[24:08] ---**
Then I win by default, right?
**[24:10] ---**
All right! I win!
**[24:13] ---**
Next time: Heaven's Game
