**[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?
**[00:16] ---**
Miss, that's dangerous!
**[00:20] ---**
Phew, that was close...
**[00:23] ---**
I haven't been able to find any decent jobs.
**[00:25] ---**
What am I going to do
about this month's rent?
**[00:30] ---**
"It'll work out somehow?"
**[00:33] ---**
I never realized you had such
a positive outlook, Plue.
**[00:54] [SONG] ---**
Yo Ho! Steer that rudder! Hard to port!
**[00:59] [SONG] ---**
Yo Ho! Our high-flyin' lives are every which way!
**[01:07] [SONG] ---**
When the sun goes down, there's a bon voyage bash.
**[01:16] [SONG] ---**
It ain't sad at all.
**[01:21] [SONG] ---**
As long as we're alive, we'll meet again somewhere!
**[01:28] [SONG] ---**
Blast straight through a headwind, set off!
**[01:32] [SONG] ---**
Stay strong until the tears dry up! A man gotta be tough.
**[01:37] [SONG] ---**
Friends, friends, laugh one day!
**[01:42] [SONG] ---**
As proof of our strong, strong bonds!
**[01:46] [SONG] ---**
Now, grab that map to the shining future!
**[02:16] ---**
No one's here...
**[02:17] ---**
And why exactly do I get so
tense every time I come home?
**[02:22] ---**
Yeah, I have been through a lot.
**[02:25] ---**
Anyway, time for a bath!
**[02:30] ---**
It's like I'm back from the dead!
**[02:31] ---**
Hey, who're you callin' dead?!
**[02:35] ---**
Comedy doesn't work so well
when I'm doing both parts...
**[02:40] ---**
Wow, you actually do wilt if
you get soaked in hot water.
**[02:45] ---**
How cute!
**[02:49] ---**
Battle of Fairy Tail!
**[02:58] ---**
Good night!
**[03:04] ---**
Somethin' seems familiar here...
**[03:13] ---**
Good morning, Lucy.
**[03:14] ---**
One: I'm over here!
**[03:15] ---**
Two: This is *my* house!
**[03:17] ---**
Three: That is *my* bed!
**[03:18] ---**
Aye...
**[03:19] ---**
Get out!
**[03:20] ---**
Nope, not happenin'...
**[03:23] ---**
Is he even listening?
**[03:24] ---**
Give Natsu back his scarf...
**[03:29] ---**
Now that you mention it, I
never see him without it, do I?
**[03:33] ---**
He said that he got it from Igneel.
**[03:40] ---**
Hey, is Natsu really okay?
**[03:43] ---**
Yeah.
**[03:44] ---**
This is a side effect from
when he ate Etherion.
**[03:48] ---**
Oh, it is?
**[03:49] ---**
Aye. He got this way before when
he ate Laxus's lightning once.
**[03:54] ---**
I guess eating magic other than
fire isn't any good for him.
**[03:57] ---**
And wait, why did he eat Laxus's lightning?
**[04:00] ---**
Natsu challenged him in the past.
**[04:03] ---**
Although he was wiped out
instantly, of course.
**[04:08] ---**
Laxus is seriously that powerful?
**[04:11] ---**
Aye! He's really majorly strong.
**[04:14] ---**
Although there's Erza and Mystogan too...
**[04:17] ---**
Mira used to be really dangerous herself.
**[04:19] ---**
She was called the "Demon."
**[04:21] ---**
Mira-san was what?
**[04:22] ---**
I wonder who would win if Fairy Tail held
a contest to see who was the strongest?
**[04:28] ---**
I don't want us fellow wizards
to be ranked like that.
**[04:32] ---**
There's also Gray and Elfman...
**[04:34] ---**
Gajeel and Juvia are obviously strong too...
**[04:36] ---**
Sure, whatever.
**[04:37] ---**
Everyone's awesome...
**[04:39] ---**
Anyway, see you tomorrow!
**[04:41] ---**
Aye...
**[04:43] ---**
What's this?
**[04:45] ---**
I was thinking about giving it to you.
**[04:47] ---**
You need the money, right?
**[04:49] ---**
Fairy Tail is participating
in the Harvest Festival.
**[04:54] ---**
Look at the bottom right.
**[04:57] ---**
Miss Fairy Tail Contest?
**[04:59] ---**
Aye!
**[05:00] ---**
The prize for winning is 500,000 jewel!
**[05:04] ---**
500,000?
**[05:05] ---**
That's seven month's worth of
rent! And it's perfect for me!
**[05:08] ---**
Mira and Cana are participating,
but I don't think you'd lose, Lucy.
**[05:13] ---**
Mira-san, too?
**[05:15] ---**
She used to do photo spreads
for the Weekly Sorcerer...
**[05:19] ---**
But I'm younger!
**[05:21] ---**
So with my fresh new charm...
**[05:24] ---**
I can do this!
**[05:25] ---**
I can get that 500,000!
**[05:27] ---**
I'm gonna win this thing! Oh, yeah!
**[05:31] ---**
Didn't you say something about not wanting
your fellow wizards ranked like that?
**[05:34] ---**
Happy, would you like a yummy fish?
**[05:37] ---**
Natsu... So this is what
they call human ego...
**[05:42] ---**
This is the town of Shirotsume.
**[05:46] ---**
The Dark Guild, Ghoul Spirit
is to the north-west.
**[05:53] ---**
You laughed at us?
**[05:57] ---**
You came for a beating, you punks!
**[05:59] ---**
Don't let them leave here alive!
**[06:01] ---**
Honestly, what does a guild like
yours that sneaks among the shadows
**[06:05] ---**
think they are doing making
fun of an official guild...
**[06:10] ---**
What happened?
**[06:11] ---**
They turned to stone?
**[06:13] ---**
Get 'em!
**[06:17] ---**
Go now, my babies!
**[06:28] ---**
That's enough, Bickslow.
**[06:30] ---**
What? That's it?
**[06:32] ---**
How dare they form a guild,
as weak as they are.
**[06:37] ---**
My babies ain't had enough fun yet!
**[06:40] ---**
More!
**[06:41] ---**
More!
**[06:42] ---**
Then I've got something perfect for you...
**[06:47] ---**
Oh, you mean what Laxus was talking about?
**[06:50] ---**
He's finally going to do it.
**[06:52] ---**
I've been waiting for this moment forever!
**[06:56] ---**
So have my babies!
**[06:59] ---**
Just three of them completely wiped
us... wiped Ghoul Spirit out!
**[07:04] ---**
That's Fairy Tail's Raijin
Tribe... Laxus's personal guard!
**[07:14] ---**
My Raijin Tribe is coming back.
**[07:16] ---**
Finally, my moment has come.
**[07:20] ---**
Time for the Fairies to destroy each other.
**[07:23] ---**
Old man, your time is over!
**[07:32] ---**
The whole city is focused
on the Harvest Festival...
**[07:35] ---**
Everyone said they're busy
preparing for the Fantasia.
**[07:38] ---**
Yes, since this is Fairy Tail's grand parade
that's the pride of the entire continent!
**[07:43] ---**
It'd be nice if Laxus would participate.
**[07:46] ---**
Enough about him.
**[07:48] ---**
I heard from Levy that he's returned to town.
**[07:53] ---**
He's what?
**[07:57] ---**
Master...
**[08:00] ---**
He had to come back now, of all times...
**[08:04] ---**
Gramps, Gramps!
**[08:06] ---**
Gramps!
**[08:08] ---**
Oh, Laxus!
**[08:10] ---**
Aren't you going to join the Fantasia?
**[08:12] ---**
I promised to watch it with you, remember?
**[08:16] ---**
Yay, yay!
**[08:20] ---**
I hope I can join Fairy Tail soon!
**[08:23] ---**
Not so fast there, kiddo!
**[08:30] ---**
I-I can't see!
**[08:32] ---**
No kidding...
**[08:39] ---**
How 'bout that, Laxus?
**[08:41] ---**
Those are Fairy Tail wizards!
**[08:44] ---**
Wow!
**[08:46] ---**
Wow, Gramps!
**[08:48] ---**
You're the best guild master ever!
**[08:55] ---**
When I grow up, I want to join Fairy Tail!
**[08:59] ---**
I see, I see!
**[09:05] ---**
And then, the day of the Harvest Festival...
**[09:10] ---**
It's a festival!
**[09:12] ---**
Aye!
**[09:12] ---**
Time to chow down!
**[09:14] ---**
Gotta eat 'em all!
**[09:16] ---**
Let's eat!
**[09:19] ---**
He still doesn't seem so well.
**[09:22] ---**
Is he okay?
**[09:23] ---**
Just leave him be...
**[09:25] ---**
You never change, do you?
**[09:28] ---**
Warren!
**[09:29] ---**
How long has it been?
**[09:31] ---**
I made it back for the
Harvest Festival, somehow.
**[09:34] ---**
You take on too many jobs at once, man!
**[09:37] ---**
Wow!
**[09:38] ---**
I'm the new recruit, Juvia.
**[09:41] ---**
Oh, I've heard about you.
**[09:43] ---**
Warren Rocko.
**[09:45] ---**
He has telepathic abilities.
**[09:47] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[09:48] ---**
Nice to meet you as well.
**[09:51] ---**
But...
**[09:52] ---**
What a lot of people!
**[09:54] ---**
People have come from all
over to see the Fantasia.
**[09:59] ---**
I want to see it too!
**[10:00] ---**
You're participating in it, remember?
**[10:03] ---**
Oh, yeah! That reminds me...
**[10:04] ---**
The Miss Fairy Tail Contest is starting!
**[10:07] ---**
My rent!
**[10:09] ---**
Juvia cannot allow herself
to lose to Lucy-san.
**[10:13] ---**
You're going to participate too?
**[10:16] ---**
Everyone, I'm so glad you could make it!
**[10:19] ---**
The battle of beauty between
our female Fairies...
**[10:21] ---**
Let's start the Miss Fairy Tail Contest!
**[10:25] ---**
I am Max, the sand wizard,
and I will be your host!
**[10:32] ---**
You don't care about this stuff, right?
**[10:34] ---**
I'm a Man!
**[10:36] ---**
Entry number one:
**[10:38] ---**
The exotic beauty with a
bottomless pit for a stomach,
**[10:43] ---**
Cana Alberona!
**[10:48] ---**
Now it's time to appeal to
the audience with your magic!
**[10:55] ---**
The cards are hiding Cana's body...
**[10:59] ---**
She changed into a swimsuit!
**[11:02] ---**
I'll take that beer-money, thanks.
**[11:06] ---**
A swimsuit?
**[11:07] ---**
No fair!
**[11:07] ---**
I see...
**[11:08] ---**
That's a good idea.
**[11:10] ---**
You're participating too, Erza?
**[11:12] ---**
When I hear there's a contest,
I can't help but get motivated.
**[11:15] ---**
My rent is slipping away from me...
**[11:17] ---**
Entry number two:
**[11:19] ---**
She might be a newcomer, but
her abilities are S class!
**[11:22] ---**
Rain or shine, this woman
will steal your heart!
**[11:26] ---**
Juvia Lockser!
**[11:29] ---**
May these feelings reach you, Gray-sama!
**[11:37] ---**
She put on a performance
that matches her swimsuit!
**[11:41] ---**
Gray-sama, did you see?
**[11:44] ---**
Another one going for sex appeal?!
**[11:47] ---**
Entry number three:
**[11:50] ---**
Everyone's favorite poster
girl of the guild...
**[11:52] ---**
Her beauty is known throughout the land!
**[11:56] ---**
Mirajane!
**[11:57] ---**
We've been waiting!
**[11:58] ---**
We have a winner!
**[11:59] ---**
It's really her!
**[12:00] ---**
She's cuter in person!
**[12:00] ---**
Now, appeal to the audience!
**[12:03] ---**
My specialty is transformation
magic, so I'll transform!
**[12:09] ---**
Head-only Happy! Aye!
**[12:14] ---**
Head-only Gajeel-kun!
**[12:18] ---**
You're the only one happy
about this, you know.
**[12:20] ---**
Nee-chan...
**[12:22] ---**
The crowd favorite just
shot herself in the foot.
**[12:25] ---**
Entry number four:
**[12:27] ---**
She needs no explanation... Titania!
**[12:30] ---**
That's my cue!
**[12:33] ---**
Erza Scarlet!
**[12:35] ---**
She's here!
**[12:36] ---**
Erza, you're so cool!
**[12:36] ---**
Fairy Tail's strongest woman!
**[12:38] ---**
She's really popular!
**[12:41] ---**
I will show you all a very special requip.
**[12:53] ---**
G-Goth Loli?
**[12:56] ---**
That decided it.
**[12:58] ---**
That's really *different* of her.
**[13:00] ---**
Oui...
**[13:01] ---**
Entry number five!
**[13:03] ---**
The little fairy with
cutes and intelligence...
**[13:07] ---**
Levy McGarden!
**[13:09] ---**
Levy!
**[13:11] ---**
Solid Script!
**[13:17] ---**
Levy!
**[13:19] ---**
Entry number six:
**[13:21] ---**
The sexy sniper Bisca Moulin!
**[13:30] ---**
Requip!
**[13:33] ---**
The Gunner!
**[13:36] ---**
Yeehaw!
**[13:39] ---**
How cute!
**[13:40] ---**
Everyone's really amazing...
**[13:42] ---**
Entry number seven:
**[13:44] ---**
Our guild's super rookie!
**[13:46] ---**
That's me!
**[13:47] ---**
This upcoming star will sparkle with
the guidance of Celestial Spirits!
**[13:50] ---**
Lucy Heart-
**[13:52] ---**
Don't say my last name!
**[13:54] ---**
What's this?
**[13:55] ---**
She's cute...
**[13:56] ---**
If they found out who my dad is,
they'll never award me the 500,000!
**[14:00] ---**
Now, appeal to the audience!
**[14:02] ---**
Um, I'm going to do a cheer
dance routine with my Spirits!
**[14:06] ---**
Entry number eight:
**[14:09] ---**
Hey! I'm not done appealing yet!
**[14:11] ---**
If you want a Fairy, then you want me.
**[14:15] ---**
If you want beauty, then you want me.
**[14:17] ---**
Yes, I am all you want!
**[14:20] ---**
The winner is obviously me, Evergreen!
**[14:25] ---**
Okay! The idiotic contest is now over!
**[14:30] ---**
Evergreen?
**[14:31] ---**
She's back?
**[14:41] ---**
Hey, don't get in my way!
**[14:44] ---**
My rent is counting on this, you know!
**[14:46] ---**
Lucy, don't look into her eyes!
**[14:49] ---**
What's with this kid?
**[14:55] ---**
What's this?
**[14:56] ---**
She's turned to stone!
**[14:56] ---**
Is this supposed to be appealing?
**[14:58] ---**
This is bad...
**[14:59] ---**
Everyone, quickly escape!
**[15:04] ---**
What are you doing, Evergreen?
**[15:06] ---**
Do you plan on ruining the festival?
**[15:10] ---**
You need some entertainment
for a festival, yes?
**[15:15] ---**
Nee-chan!
**[15:16] ---**
Even Erza!
**[15:17] ---**
You fool!
**[15:19] ---**
Return them to normal at once!
**[15:25] ---**
Hey, you Fairy Fails!
**[15:29] ---**
This festival's just getting started!
**[15:31] ---**
Laxus?
**[15:34] ---**
Freed?
**[15:35] ---**
Bickslow?
**[15:37] ---**
The Raijin Tribe...
**[15:38] ---**
Laxus's personal guard!
**[15:41] ---**
Let's play, old man.
**[15:43] ---**
Enough of this foolishness!
**[15:46] ---**
Return them to normal at once!
**[15:48] ---**
I wonder how many will be
left to be in the Fantasia?
**[15:52] ---**
Don't!
**[15:57] ---**
These women are my hostages.
**[16:00] ---**
If you break the rules, I'll
shatter them, one by one.
**[16:03] ---**
I told you, remember?
**[16:04] ---**
This is entertainment!
**[16:06] ---**
This isn't funny, Laxus!
**[16:09] ---**
I'm being serious.
**[16:11] ---**
Let's just see who the
strongest is in Fairy Tail.
**[16:16] ---**
Time for fun!
**[16:18] ---**
Fun, fun!
**[16:19] ---**
The rules are simple!
**[16:21] ---**
That last one standing is the winner!
**[16:24] ---**
Battle of Fairy Tail!
**[16:29] ---**
I like it! Simple!
**[16:32] ---**
I'm getting fired up!
**[16:33] ---**
I like that eager spirit of yours.
**[16:38] ---**
Natsu!
**[16:39] ---**
It's a festival, Gramps.
**[16:41] ---**
Let's do this.
**[16:42] ---**
Don't you remember when you
got beat by Laxus before?
**[16:46] ---**
I was just a kid!
**[16:47] ---**
It was last year!
**[16:49] ---**
I was a kid last year.
**[16:52] ---**
But I hate that you have no sense of flair.
**[16:56] ---**
So cool down.
**[16:58] ---**
Natsu!
**[16:59] ---**
See what I said?
**[17:00] ---**
What a Man...
**[17:03] ---**
Aww, and he had just recovered...
**[17:06] ---**
If you want these girls returned
to normal, you must defeat us!
**[17:11] ---**
There are 4 of us, and
around 100 of you, right?
**[17:15] ---**
100 on 4!
**[17:17] ---**
You have 3 hours.
**[17:19] ---**
After that, they turn to dust, I'm afraid.
**[17:24] ---**
The field of battle is
the entirety of Magnolia.
**[17:27] ---**
When you find us, the battle begins.
**[17:30] ---**
Laxus...
**[17:32] ---**
Stop this foolishness!
**[17:35] ---**
Now, now! I said to cool down!
**[17:37] ---**
It's entertainment for the festival, see?
**[17:40] ---**
Let's have fun!
**[17:43] ---**
Battle of Fairy Tail... Begin!
**[17:48] ---**
H-He disappeared!
**[17:50] ---**
So we have to play tag in Magnolia?
**[17:52] ---**
Damn it!
**[17:54] ---**
We have to save my sister and the others!
**[17:56] ---**
Get Laxus!
**[18:00] ---**
Bisca, I'll save you. Just you wait.
**[18:09] ---**
That fool...
**[18:11] ---**
I'll... I'll stop you!
**[18:16] ---**
Gramps!
**[18:17] ---**
An invisible wall?
**[18:19] ---**
Don't be silly!
**[18:20] ---**
There's nothing there!
**[18:23] ---**
What's going on?
**[18:26] ---**
What's this?
**[18:28] ---**
There are characters floating in the air...
**[18:30] ---**
Freed's runes?
**[18:34] ---**
Runes?
**[18:35] ---**
A type of barrier.
**[18:37] ---**
Anyone who steps in its boundary
is bound by the rules.
**[18:39] ---**
If you don't obey them, you can't get out.
**[18:42] ---**
Establishment Magic!
**[18:43] ---**
What's written?
**[18:45] ---**
Those older than 80 or
stone statues may not pass.
**[18:50] ---**
A magic where the guy
who sets the rules wins?
**[18:53] ---**
It takes a long time to write the runes.
**[18:56] ---**
It is not suited for a sudden battle,
**[18:59] ---**
but when it comes to setting
traps, there's nothing better.
**[19:03] ---**
Can't you break it down, Gramps?
**[19:06] ---**
The rune's rules are absolute!
**[19:09] ---**
Man, they planned for everything.
**[19:11] ---**
So I guess we'll have to handle it ourselves.
**[19:15] ---**
Gray...
**[19:16] ---**
I don't care if he's your grandson
or whatever, I ain't holdin' back.
**[19:20] ---**
I'll get Laxus.
**[19:25] ---**
Is there anyone who could beat Laxus?
**[19:28] ---**
Erza might be able to...
**[19:31] ---**
But in her condition...
**[19:37] ---**
Who's there?
**[19:39] ---**
Reedus?
**[19:40] ---**
I-I'm scared of Laxus...
**[19:43] ---**
Fine, fine...
**[19:44] ---**
Instead, I'd like you to pay a visit
to Poluchka in the East Forest.
**[19:47] ---**
Oui?
**[19:48] ---**
She might have some potion
that'll cure petrification.
**[19:51] ---**
Oui.
**[19:56] ---**
You're awake!
**[19:57] ---**
Huh?
**[19:58] ---**
Where's Laxus?
**[19:59] ---**
And wait, everyone's gone!
**[20:03] ---**
If Natsu really got serious, then perhaps...
**[20:06] ---**
Gramps, where did everyone go?
**[20:10] ---**
Should I count on his latent ability?
**[20:13] ---**
Natsu!
**[20:15] ---**
The festival has started!
**[20:16] ---**
Laxus is somewhere within Magnolia!
**[20:20] ---**
Get out there and beat 'im!
**[20:22] ---**
All right!
**[20:24] ---**
Just you wait, Laxus!
**[20:28] ---**
Why?
**[20:30] ---**
Find them, Alzack?
**[20:31] ---**
They aren't here.
**[20:33] ---**
How about you?
**[20:34] ---**
No, not a clue.
**[20:35] ---**
Damn it!
**[20:36] ---**
How dare they do that to Bisca!
**[20:38] ---**
Hey, calm down Alzack!
**[20:40] ---**
How can I be calm at a time like this?
**[20:42] ---**
We only have three hours!
**[20:46] ---**
What's this?
**[20:46] ---**
Shoot!
**[20:48] ---**
Runes?
**[20:49] ---**
So there are rune traps around the city?
**[20:52] ---**
This must be Freed's work!
**[20:57] ---**
Only the strongest wizard is
allowed to exit these runes?
**[21:03] ---**
He's trying to make us fight each other?
**[21:06] ---**
That's cruel, Freed!
**[21:08] ---**
Sorry...
**[21:10] ---**
I... need to save Bisca!
**[21:14] ---**
What's going on here?
**[21:16] ---**
Natsu! Are you 80 years old?
**[21:19] ---**
Are you a stone statue?
**[21:19] ---**
As if!
**[21:23] ---**
Current Status Report.
**[21:26] ---**
Jet vs. Droy vs. Alzack?
**[21:30] ---**
W-What's this?
**[21:32] ---**
Why are they fighting each other?
**[21:39] ---**
Falcon Heaven's Soar!
**[21:43] ---**
Knuckle Plant!
**[21:49] ---**
Guns Magic!
**[21:51] ---**
Tornado Shot!
**[21:57] ---**
Winner: Alzack.
**[21:59] ---**
Jet and Droy: Out of action.
**[22:02] ---**
What?
**[22:08] ---**
Damn... I'm sorry.
**[22:12] ---**
I wonder how long you can stand to see the
Fairies destroying each other, old man...
**[22:18] ---**
The hell with this, Laxus!
**[22:25] [SONG] ---**
That time we laughed, saying "we're both like each other,"
**[22:35] [SONG] ---**
we even kindly overlooked the little lies.
**[22:44] [SONG] ---**
If we lose a place to go back to together, I don't care.
**[22:50] [SONG] ---**
Because I'll protect that smile.
**[22:59] [SONG] ---**
The meetings and partings numerous as the stars in the sky...
**[23:03] [SONG] ---**
All the things I don't want to lose...
**[23:05] [SONG] ---**
Right now I feel like I don't need any of them.
**[23:10] [SONG] ---**
I just want to see you by my side,
**[23:15] [SONG] ---**
all my happiness and sadness.
**[23:21] [SONG] ---**
Let's start from here.
**[23:23] [SONG] ---**
Let's start our tomorrow.
**[23:26] [SONG] ---**
Let's do it like we've just been reborn.
**[23:30] [SONG] ---**
Like flowers blown in a summer wind,
**[23:36] [SONG] ---**
let us bloom brightly in this instant.
**[23:56] ---**
It's finally time for the Raijin
Tribe to enter the fight!
**[23:58] ---**
Evergreen, Bickslow, Freed...
**[24:01] ---**
Those guys are crazy strong, you know!
**[24:03] ---**
I'm gettin' fired up!
**[24:05] ---**
Natsu, sorry to kill your excitement,
**[24:07] ---**
but unless you can get out of
the barrier, you can't join in.
**[24:11] ---**
Oh, right...
**[24:13] ---**
Next time: Defeat your Friends
to Save your Friends!
**[24:16] ---**
Now that you mention it, Gajeel doesn't
seem to be able to exit the barrier either.
**[24:20] ---**
Why don't you get to know each
other better over a cup of tea?
**[24:22] ---**
Tea with him? No way!
