    Previously on Fairy Tail:
[00:02] ---
    Hey Natsu, don't you think our guild
    has a whole lot of special events?
[00:06] ---
    Yeah... There's the that
    big parade, the Fantasia...
[00:09] ---
    Then there's the hanami bingo tournament...
[00:10] ---
    And don't forget about the
    Miss Fairy Tail contest!
[00:13] ---
    Wait, did you win that, Lucy?
[00:16] ---
    Please don't ask me that... Seriously.
[02:04] ---
    So cool!
[02:06] ---
    It's that time of year again!
    This grand event is here!
[02:09] ---
    Fairy Tail's traditional All-Wizards
    Mandatory Participation 24 Hours Road Race!
[02:15] ---
    And I, Jason, from the Weekly Sorcerer,
    will be doing the play-by-play!
[02:20] ---
    I'll be giving you the cool
    scoop on this hot event!
[02:27] ---
    24-Hour Endurance Road Race!
[02:33] ---
    Here he is!
[02:34] ---
    The unbeatable titleholder
    for this road race, Jet!
[02:37] ---
    Rumors say he's compensating for
    being mostly useless on quests!
[02:42] ---
    Hey!
[02:42] ---
    Just rumors, man!
[02:44] ---
    Damn that Jet... He thinks this year's
    gonna be a walk in the park again.
[02:48] ---
    Oh yeah? I wouldn't be so sure of that.
[02:51] ---
    Victory is mine!
[02:53] ---
    Nobody who says "victory is
    mine" ever actually wins.
[02:57] ---
    I gots me a super-secret weapon.
[02:59] ---
    A secret weapon? You're such a little kid.
[03:07] ---
    All right, let's do this!
[03:09] ---
    You're drinking? Right
    before we start the run?
[03:12] ---
    I can't run without fuel, right?
[03:14] ---
    I figured you'd say
    something like that, Cana.
[03:16] ---
    Everyone's really revved up, though.
[03:18] ---
    No one wants to face the
    punishment, after all.
[03:21] ---
    Last year was horrible...
[03:25] ---
    What punishment?
[03:26] ---
    Quiet, everyone!
[03:28] ---
    All members of Fairy Tail!
[03:31] ---
    A wizard is one with both
    strength of mind and body!
[03:35] ---
    I wish for you to utilize those powers
    to the utmost in today's competition!
[03:39] ---
    Do we really need smarts for this?
[03:41] ---
    Seems pretty much just
    physical endurance to me.
[03:44] ---
    The rules are simple!
[03:46] ---
    You will run as fast as you
    can from the start line,
[03:48] ---
    then here along the appointed
    course, heading for Mt. Ivor!
[03:52] ---
    This year, I have left Wyvern
    scales at the top of Mt. Ivor!
[03:56] ---
    You will take one of those scales,
    and return here within 24 hours!
[04:02] ---
    I won't accept any dropouts.
[04:04] ---
    If you are a Fairy Tail Wizard,
    then you will run the distance,
[04:07] ---
    all the way to your next job tomorrow!
[04:10] ---
    Furthermore, I am imposing a new regulation
    this year at the urging of many...
[04:16] ---
    Flying magic is forbidden!
[04:20] ---
    Other than that, any type
    of magic is allowed!
[04:23] ---
    He's one crafty old fox...
[04:25] ---
    Every year he just goes overboard...
[04:28] ---
    And of course, the person who comes in last
[04:31] ---
    will face a punishment of which there
    is nothing scarier on the planet!
[04:37] ---
    Isn't this all because the master looks
    forward to giving out the punishment?
[04:41] ---
    Last year was just awful...
[04:43] ---
    It's only one person, though.
[04:45] ---
    As long as you don't come
    in last, what's the problem?
[04:48] ---
    That is a quite logical way of thinking.
[04:51] ---
    But it is far too negative!
[04:53] ---
    Oh, yeah?
[04:55] ---
    I compete only to win.
[04:59] ---
    This is a special outfit that
    reduces my muscle fatigue,
[05:02] ---
    allowing me to run continuously
    for a long time.
[05:05] ---
    She's really going for the win...
[05:08] ---
    Happy. Today only, we're rivals.
[05:11] ---
    I ain't gonna go easy on you.
[05:13] ---
    I know!
[05:14] ---
    But...
[05:15] ---
    This new rule sucks big time.
[05:18] ---
    D-Dark!
[05:19] ---
    Now... It's finally time for the start!
[05:22] ---
    Everyone, to the start line!
[05:27] ---
    Levy, watch my start!
[05:29] ---
    I don't have time for that!
[05:32] ---
    He just wants to show you how cool he is.
[05:33] ---
    You probably don't realize, Lu-chan, but I
    couldn't watch him at the start if I wanted to.
[05:43] ---
    Ready!
[05:45] ---
    Bam!
[05:47] ---
    Here I go!
[05:49] ---
    High Speed!
[05:51] ---
    Pulling away right at the
    start is Jet again this year!
[05:58] ---
    Couldn't see him, right?
[06:00] ---
    No kidding...
[06:06] ---
    Seriously?!
[06:07] ---
    Check out my secret weapon!
[06:10] ---
    It's Fists of the Fire Dragon boosters!
[06:12] ---
    Jet, Natsu! That's totally not right!
[06:16] ---
    Lucy-san, Levy-san, if you'll pardon us!
[06:19] ---
    Today, everyone is our enemy.
[06:21] ---
    You really don't have to be so polite.
[06:24] ---
    Crap!
[06:25] ---
    We're the last ones!
[06:27] ---
    Now then, who'll be getting the punishment?
[06:30] ---
    I can't wait!
[06:40] ---
    Sorry, Happy!
[06:41] ---
    See ya!
[06:45] ---
    Jet's already running off by himself!
[06:48] ---
    And behind him, Natsu!
[06:49] ---
    The idea of using his Fists of the Fire
    Dragon as boosters is totally cool!
[06:54] ---
    Then there's Erza and Gajeel
    leading a huge pack!
[06:59] ---
    Who will it be that makes a break for it?
[07:02] ---
    Let's hear from our expert
    commentator, Mirajane!
[07:06] ---
    Jet's so fast...
[07:08] ---
    ...we can't film him.
[07:17] ---
    Pict Magic!
[07:23] ---
    What a cinch!
[07:24] ---
    Everyone, fall!
[07:29] ---
    That's what you get for
    layin' back and paintin'!
[07:32] ---
    Ice Make Floor!
[07:41] ---
    All's fair!
[07:43] ---
    Gray, you bastard!
[07:45] ---
    Beast Arm...
[07:49] ---
    Iron Bull!
[07:52] ---
    Gray-sama?
[07:57] ---
    This is tough work...
[07:59] ---
    You drink too much, Cana!
[08:00] ---
    You look just as tired as me, Wakaba!
[08:02] ---
    I didn't think I'd gotten this out of shape!
[08:05] ---
    Can we even make it to the goal?
[08:08] ---
    You guys are pitiful.
[08:10] ---
    Learn from this, and lay off
    the booze and tobacco a little.
[08:19] ---
    What is this?
[08:20] ---
    Runes?
[08:21] ---
    Is it Freed?
[08:22] ---
    He's booby-trapped the course!
[08:24] ---
    Exactly.
[08:26] ---
    Are you never going to let us out?
[08:28] ---
    I know he said anything other than flying
    magic is allowed, but this goes too far!
[08:33] ---
    I never said you couldn't go free.
[08:40] ---
    What are these?
[08:41] ---
    "Practice Questions for the Magic
    Four-Wheeler License Exam"?
[08:45] ---
    This one's "Practice Questions for the Level
    3 Four Elements Sorcerer Qualification"?
[08:49] ---
    Freed, what's the meaning of this?
[08:51] ---
    To escape from these runes, you must answer
    all the questions, and get them all correct.
[08:57] ---
    What?!
[08:59] ---
    If this race purports to test both
    physical and mental strength,
[09:03] ---
    then this little side game is
    entertaining as well as fitting.
[09:07] ---
    If you feel bitter, blame yourselves
    for falling into my trap.
[09:12] ---
    Hold it, Freed!
[09:13] ---
    Blame ourselves?
[09:15] ---
    It was you who activated the runes...
[09:18] ---
    We were just caught up in it!
[09:20] ---
    We've got no choice!
[09:21] ---
    We'll solve all the problems!
[09:22] ---
    Do them yourself!
[09:25] ---
    Forgive me, friends!
[09:25] ---
    You meanies!
[09:29] ---
    She is brave for not using magic.
[09:33] ---
    Runes?
[09:35] ---
    Titania!
[09:36] ---
    Your senses are as perceptive as ever!
[09:39] ---
    You may have noticed the
    rune trap, however...
[09:45] ---
    Breaking my running rhythm
    is a serious offense.
[09:48] ---
    Now I have to get my rhythm back...
[09:50] ---
    Erza, let me out of here!
[09:52] ---
    Hey!
[09:54] ---
    After getting past his tricks,
    she zings one back at him!
[09:58] ---
    The race has gotten completely unpredictable!
[10:01] ---
    No one wants to face the punishment.
[10:04] ---
    Oh?
[10:05] ---
    There's movement near the top of Mt. Ivor!
[10:09] ---
    Could it be?
[10:11] ---
    It's Jet!
[10:13] ---
    The pre-race speculation was right on the
    money, as Jet is the first to reach the summit!
[10:20] ---
    He took a Wyvern scale!
[10:22] ---
    Now all he has to do is come back!
[10:25] ---
    Jet's speed isn't waning in the slightest!
[10:28] ---
    Who will get there next?!
[10:31] ---
    Ah, I'm beat...
[10:32] ---
    I can't go on anymore. I need a little break.
[10:35] ---
    Lu-chan, you have to keep going!
[10:37] ---
    But my legs won't move!
[10:39] ---
    Levy-chan, you go ahead. I'll catch up.
[10:42] ---
    Okay.
[10:43] ---
    I'll be going now.
[10:46] ---
    My legs hurt...
[10:48] ---
    Is there anything I can make use of?
[10:50] ---
    Anyone good to rely on at a time like this...
[10:54] ---
    Gate of the Maiden, I open thee!
[10:56] ---
    Virgo!
[11:00] ---
    You called, Princess?
[11:03] ---
    Carry me up to the peak!
[11:05] ---
    And do it on the double!
[11:07] ---
    As you wish.
[11:09] ---
    This'll be a breeze!
[11:10] ---
    Full speed ahead!
[11:12] ---
    I depart!
[11:16] ---
    Lu-chan?
[11:18] ---
    I'm gonna fall! I'm gonna fall!
[11:19] ---
    Let me down, I'm scared!
[11:25] ---
    What lovely water...
[11:27] ---
    The fatigue is washing right away...
[11:30] ---
    Ah, Gray-sama...
[11:32] ---
    Sorry for earlier.
[11:36] ---
    Juvia was also scared of this "punishment", so
    she didn't help you, and instead went on ahead!
[11:44] ---
    But Juvia is tormented by what she did!
[11:47] ---
    Until Gray-sama comes to this place, Juvia
    will rest herself in this cool water...
[11:53] ---
    Like this...
[12:07] ---
    Was that... Juvia-san?
[12:09] ---
    Ah, the water-user.
[12:11] ---
    While she was soaking in the water, she must
    have changed herself to water by accident.
[12:19] ---
    Have you seen Juvia around here?
[12:22] ---
    Seriously?
[12:23] ---
    Gray-sama!
[12:29] ---
    Go, go, go!
[12:32] ---
    Whoa there, they stopped!
[12:37] ---
    Out of fuel?
[12:41] ---
    Well, I was going full-power all this time.
[12:45] ---
    Gajeel!
[12:46] ---
    Outta my way!
[12:53] ---
    Gajeel, you bastard!
[12:59] ---
    Can I eat that fire?
[13:08] ---
    It's been 12 hours since the start!
[13:10] ---
    The moon has already
    risen over the night sky!
[13:13] ---
    Right now, the wizards are taking
    Wyvern scales one after another
[13:17] ---
    and blasting on to the return course!
[13:30] ---
    Finally, here...
[13:58] ---
    Oh, Happy!
[13:59] ---
    Natsu!
[14:06] ---
    Thanks, Natsu!
[14:09] ---
    I'm taking off.
[14:10] ---
    Don't slack off on the way!
[14:12] ---
    I know!
[14:13] ---
    Fists of the Fire Dragon!
[14:18] ---
    The 24 Hours Endurance Road Race!
[14:21] ---
    We're well into the second half! Cool!
[14:24] ---
    All the wizards, with Wyvern scale in hand,
[14:27] ---
    are racing full speed toward
    the Magnolia South Gate Park!
[14:33] ---
    Still in the lead is Jet, as always!
[14:35] ---
    Next up is Erza, who
    doesn't even look winded!
[14:40] ---
    The next group is Gray, Lucy, and
    Gajeel, who are still running strong!
[14:44] ---
    Cool!
[14:46] ---
    Behind them is the full pack in pursuit,
    not losing focus for an instant!
[14:51] ---
    Who will be coming in last?
[14:53] ---
    Who will be receiving the
    punishment this year?
[14:56] ---
    You can't miss a second!
[15:02] ---
    Bunch of slackers...
[15:03] ---
    Let's liven things up a bit.
[15:17] ---
    Cool!
[15:19] ---
    The race has entered the final stage!
[15:21] ---
    The super-high-speed Jet is so fast,
    we've completely lost sight of him!
[15:27] ---
    But!
[15:28] ---
    Natsu and the rest are
    gutsily gaining ground!
[15:31] ---
    Cool!
[15:34] ---
    Everyone has worked hard through the night.
[15:37] ---
    We had better switch to our seats at South
    Gate Park, and get ready to watch the finish!
[15:46] ---
    Huh?
[15:48] ---
    Jet?
[15:50] ---
    Are you asleep?
[15:51] ---
    Hey, Jet!
[15:53] ---
    Wake up, Jet!
[15:57] ---
    Hey, Happy.
[15:59] ---
    Should you be sleeping now?
[16:04] ---
    I overslept!
[16:06] ---
    Everyone's gone ahead.
[16:08] ---
    Thanks, Happy.
[16:09] ---
    I gotta make up for lost time!
[16:13] ---
    It's the last spurt toward the goal!
[16:16] ---
    The battle for second is heating up!
[16:18] ---
    All right! We can see Magnolia!
[16:22] ---
    What?
[16:23] ---
    Oh, what's this?
[16:26] ---
    Jet?
[16:27] ---
    What? He wasn't in the lead?
[16:33] ---
    Why is Jet behind us?
[16:35] ---
    Wait, then that means we're
    in contention to win?!
[16:39] ---
    Why?!
[16:40] ---
    Jet is catching up as fast as he can!
[16:44] ---
    So fast! Passing them in a flash!
[16:48] ---
    I don't think so!
[16:49] ---
    Requip!
[16:52] ---
    A rabbit?
[16:54] ---
    Is this your trump card for the last spurt?
[16:59] ---
    Huh?
[17:00] ---
    She's not catching up...
[17:02] ---
    That's actually really slow for a rabbit.
[17:04] ---
    She must've bought it based
    on the way it looked!
[17:05] ---
    Maybe she's more about appearances?
[17:09] ---
    Hold it, you guys!
[17:17] ---
    Now in Magnolia, Jet's finally neck and neck!
[17:21] ---
    The winner has been narrowed
    down to one of these 5!
[17:24] ---
    Fists of the Fire Dragon!
[17:25] ---
    As if!
[17:27] ---
    Requip!
[17:35] ---
    Natsu's fists are out of fuel!
[17:37] ---
    Is he out of contention to win?
[17:39] ---
    It's not over yet!
[17:43] ---
    Yeah! Never count Natsu out!
[17:45] ---
    He's digging deep into
    top groove to close in!
[17:48] ---
    I won't lose!
[17:59] ---
    I won't lose!
[18:03] ---
    Victory is mine!
[18:15] ---
    There's a huge crash!
[18:18] ---
    Wait, who's that cool cat coming up?
[18:21] ---
    It's Happy!
[18:22] ---
    Happy is here!
[18:24] ---
    Happy?
[18:27] ---
    Yes, the goal is right ahead!
[18:36] ---
    All right!
[18:37] ---
    I won!
[18:39] ---
    Congratulations, Happy!
[18:41] ---
    Yes! You ran well!
[18:44] ---
    Aye!
[18:46] ---
    Goal! Happy is the winner of this
    year's 24 Hours Endurance Road Race!
[18:52] ---
    History has been made! Nothing
    will ever be the same, folks!
[18:56] ---
    Cool! Cool! Cool!
[19:00] ---
    I did it!
[19:03] ---
    You've got to be kidding me.
[19:04] ---
    He got us.
[19:05] ---
    The cat?
[19:09] ---
    Not a bad ending, I say.
[19:11] ---
    He woke me up.
[19:13] ---
    Ah well, I'll let him win this time.
[19:19] ---
    Wendy?!
[19:20] ---
    Carla?!
[19:21] ---
    Whoa there!
[19:23] ---
    Coming in second is Wendy,
    and third is Carla!
[19:26] ---
    The top three spots are occupied
    by these three Fairy Tail pretties!
[19:33] ---
    What?
[19:34] ---
    This is...
[19:35] ---
    No one wants to face the punishment!
[19:42] ---
    Don't step on me!
[19:44] ---
    What's this?!
[19:47] ---
    A battalion of wizards all
    crossed the goal at once!
[19:51] ---
    Quick thinking Erza also crossed the goal.
[19:55] ---
    Gray-sama, hurry!
[19:56] ---
    Natsu!
[19:58] ---
    Everyone, hurry!
[19:59] ---
    Shoot!
[20:00] ---
    Crap!
[20:02] ---
    Easy for you to say!
[20:04] ---
    This ain't no joke! High Speed!
[20:07] ---
    What?
[20:08] ---
    Jet!
[20:10] ---
    Go-go-go-goal!
[20:12] ---
    The 4 of you crossed at the same time!
[20:15] ---
    What?!
[20:17] ---
    This year was whacked out!
[20:19] ---
    This finish was cooler than cool!
[20:22] ---
    Coming in last was, incredibly,
    Natsu, Gajeel, Gray, and Jet!
[20:27] ---
    We know who'll get punished!
[20:31] ---
    Are you prepared?
[20:33] ---
    You're kidding, right, Gramps?
[20:35] ---
    Gramps! At least let us have a tie-breaker!
[20:38] ---
    No!
[20:40] ---
    I won't hear any more
    of your pitiful excuses!
[20:42] ---
    For a wizard, there are no
    do-overs, for jobs or otherwise!
[20:48] ---
    Stop acting like babies
    and take your punishment!
[20:51] ---
    All four of you!
[20:54] ---
    Fine, I got it!
[20:56] ---
    I'll do whatever!
[20:58] ---
    Tell us what the punishment is.
[21:00] ---
    There! That's the spirit.
[21:02] ---
    I will now announce this year's punishment!
[21:05] ---
    Right here!
[21:08] ---
    Weekly Sorcerer?
[21:10] ---
    What about it?
[21:11] ---
    The four of you will do a super-embarrassing
    photo spread for the issue two weeks from now!
[21:19] ---
    A super-magnificent 20 pages, together
    with a one-week, all-access interview!
[21:27] ---
    A super-embarrassing photo spread?
[21:30] ---
    I'll go buy a display and
    preservation tools, Gray-sama!
[21:34] ---
    Don't do that!
[21:35] ---
    Now then, everyone... Let's go right
    ahead and start picking out clothes!
[21:43] ---
    Wait!
[21:45] ---
    Oh, hell no!
[21:46] ---
    Wait! Cool!
[21:48] ---
    They're running again?
[21:50] ---
    Seems they still have plenty of stamina.
[21:53] ---
    As expected.
[21:54] ---
    I don't think that's what it is.
[21:55] ---
    Gray-sama's photo spread!
[21:58] ---
    By the way, Master...
[22:00] ---
    I won, so do I get something nice?
[22:04] ---
    You already did!
[22:09] ---
    You got the joy of winning
    and everyone's cheers!
[22:12] ---
    There is no greater honor, am I right?
[22:15] ---
    Wait, seriously?
[22:17] ---
    That's it?
[22:19] ---
    Seriously...?
[22:21] ---
    Aww...
[23:55] ---
    Gildarts has finally come back?!
[23:58] ---
    Aye! He's been away on a quest
    for who knows how many years.
[24:02] ---
    I can't wait to meet him!
[24:04] ---
    Yeah!
[24:05] ---
    When he gets back, I'm
    challenging him right away!
[24:07] ---
    Even though you'll just lose?
[24:08] ---
    I'll win this time.
[24:10] ---
    Definitely win!
[24:11] ---
    Have you ever won after saying that?
[24:14] ---
    Next time: Gildarts.
[24:16] ---
    Happy, prepare a party to
    celebrate my first victory!
[24:19] ---
    Aye!
[24:20] ---
    I'll prepare for a "better
    luck next time" party!
[24:22] ---
    Were you even listening to me?!
