**[00:00] ---**
Men!
**[00:03] ---**
Sparkle-nyan!
**[00:04] ---**
Sparkle-nyan!
**[00:05] ---**
It is I, Nichiya, at the Queen's service!
**[01:42] ---**
We Royal Guard gave chase to two Fallen
Exceeds and headed toward the Edolas Royal City.
**[01:47] ---**
But those sick, foul-perfumed humans dared
bare their claws at us, nay, at our Queen herself!
**[01:55] ---**
And in just a flash, we Royal Guards were
all transformed into a lacrima, and captured!
**[02:02] ---**
The King of Edolas, Faust, is trying to
use Dragon Slayer Magic to attack Extalia!
**[02:09] ---**
Men!
**[02:11] ---**
I must do something!
**[02:15] ---**
But right now, I am in this sorry state!
**[02:18] ---**
Somebody, turn me back to normal!
**[02:21] ---**
Men!
**[02:25] ---**
Code ETD. Exceed Total Destruction.
**[02:30] ---**
Operation: Extermination of Angels, is it?
**[02:34] ---**
Finally, it's time for the main event.
**[02:37] ---**
For the time being, I'll relay
this information to them.
**[02:41] ---**
Attention, citizens of Edolas.
**[02:43] ---**
Thank you very much for
visiting E-Land today.
**[02:47] ---**
From the Hell's Coaster
to the Monster Academy,
**[02:51] ---**
our King Faust has come up with a variety
of attractions using unlimited magic power,
**[02:58] ---**
all for your enjoyment!
**[03:02] ---**
Coco, wait, would you?!
**[03:08] ---**
Hurry up and give me the key!
**[03:12] ---**
I won't give any of them to you!
**[03:17] ---**
'Cause I'll beat him!
**[03:22] ---**
The Great River
of Stars is for Pride.
**[03:27] ---**
You're an Earthland wizard.
**[03:30] ---**
What are you doing here?
**[03:32] ---**
What has happened to Hughes and Sugar Boy?
**[03:35] ---**
I wonder if Natsu is okay?
**[03:38] ---**
But, I can't leave this girl alone.
**[03:41] ---**
Why is he after my keys?
**[03:44] ---**
Hurry and give me the key!
**[03:49] ---**
Sheesh, there it is!
**[03:52] ---**
Eww, what a lecherous stare!
**[03:55] ---**
I won't give you this key!
**[04:00] ---**
*bishi*
**[04:01] ---**
What's *bishi*?
**[04:02] ---**
I think she's confused...
**[04:07] ---**
Crumble to pieces!
**[04:12] ---**
What're we gonna do, Gajeel?
**[04:14] ---**
This fight's been completely one-sided!
**[04:17] ---**
But the fun's only started, see!
**[04:20] ---**
I cannot allow that to
pass without a response...
**[04:28] ---**
Taking a "wait-and-see" approach?
You make light of me.
**[04:32] ---**
The hell I am!
**[04:34] ---**
I'm just takin' my time having
a taste of your power.
**[04:37] ---**
Gajeel, that was so mean!
I'm not just some object!
**[04:40] ---**
Don't chuck me!
**[04:42] ---**
I saved your ass, so no complaining!
**[04:45] ---**
Anyway, you're in the way!
**[04:47] ---**
If you're gonna dart around,
I'll finish you off first!
**[04:51] ---**
He's so mean... He's so scary...
**[04:53] ---**
Okay, that's enough of our comedy act.
**[04:56] ---**
Let's finally get things
started for real, shall we?
**[04:59] ---**
Just try it, Earthland wizard!
**[05:02] ---**
I hope everyone's okay...
**[05:05] ---**
I'm worried about the future.
**[05:08] ---**
Gate of the Giant Bull, I open thee!
**[05:12] ---**
Taurus!
**[05:19] ---**
That outfit is the best ever, Lucy-san!
**[05:22] ---**
So much for your cool entrance.
**[05:24] ---**
What's that?! A cow?!
**[05:27] ---**
That's Earthland magic?
**[05:30] ---**
But, he seems like a pervert...
**[05:33] ---**
What about my reward from before?
**[05:36] ---**
Make this guy beg for mercy,
and I'll think about it!
**[05:39] ---**
Go!
**[05:39] ---**
Beg for mercy!
**[05:47] ---**
He's faster than he looks!
**[05:48] ---**
"Hii" ain't begging for mercy!
**[05:51] ---**
But, how?
**[05:53] ---**
She creates something from
nothing at all? Preposterous!
**[05:57] ---**
I cannot analyze it... How?
**[05:59] ---**
Ready, set... Beg!
**[06:01] ---**
Impudent!
**[06:07] ---**
Flame Liquid!
**[06:09] ---**
Taurus!
**[06:10] ---**
What was that magic now?
**[06:12] ---**
Watch out for that liquid!
**[06:15] ---**
I'm fresh out...
**[06:22] ---**
Storm Liquid!
**[06:25] ---**
Gate...
**[06:28] ---**
...of the Maiden, I open thee!
**[06:31] ---**
Virgo!
**[06:34] ---**
It's another something!
**[06:36] ---**
Is it a similar effect as Anima?
**[06:40] ---**
You will receive punishment!
**[06:43] ---**
Spica Hole!
**[06:45] ---**
What?
**[06:50] ---**
All right!
**[06:52] ---**
Wow...
**[06:53] ---**
Princess, time for punishment?
**[06:55] ---**
Why?!
**[06:56] ---**
Plus, she's a princess!
**[06:59] ---**
Maybe I should hand her this key...
**[07:03] ---**
But then, the eternal magic power...
**[07:06] ---**
But if the King gets it back, Lily's life...
**[07:11] ---**
What'll I do?
**[07:14] ---**
What's that?
**[07:15] ---**
Is that your stomach grumbling, Princess?
**[07:17] ---**
Now, look here...
**[07:19] ---**
Punishment?
**[07:27] ---**
I've got you, Coco!
**[07:32] ---**
What the heck is that?
**[07:34] ---**
An octopus tentacle, Princess.
**[07:35] ---**
That's not what I meant!
**[07:37] ---**
Octopus Liquid!
**[07:40] ---**
I drank it myself!
**[07:49] ---**
Now, no matter what strange magic
you might use, none of it will work!
**[07:54] ---**
I-I wonder about that...
**[07:56] ---**
Princess, I don't think it will work.
**[07:58] ---**
Don't give up before we even try!
**[08:04] ---**
I've got Coco.
**[08:06] ---**
But I won't be satisfied until I've
exterminated you, insolent brat!
**[08:10] ---**
This guy holds a grudge!
**[08:11] ---**
Princess, you have terrible
luck with guys, don't you?
**[08:15] ---**
That comment wasn't necessary!
**[08:20] ---**
Get me down!
**[08:22] ---**
Princess, take this!
**[08:29] ---**
What is it?
**[08:30] ---**
It's a Spirit World whip that
can extend and contract.
**[08:33] ---**
Eridanus's Fleuve d'Etoile.
**[08:36] ---**
The river of stars?
**[08:38] ---**
I hope it is of help. Although I
don't think it'll be effective.
**[08:41] ---**
Why are you so negative about it?
**[08:45] ---**
We won't know till we try, right?
**[08:48] ---**
You brat! Come 'ere!
**[08:52] ---**
I wish you best of health
in your battle, Princess!
**[08:55] ---**
Here I go!
**[09:01] ---**
What's this?
**[09:03] ---**
Something like that ain't gonna work!
**[09:10] ---**
See? See?
**[09:13] ---**
That didn't even tickle!
**[09:21] ---**
What's wrong, Earthland wizard?
**[09:25] ---**
What happened to the whole
"I'll beat you" thing, huh?
**[09:29] ---**
It really didn't work!
**[09:31] ---**
This thing is totally useless!
**[09:32] ---**
What's wrong?
**[09:33] ---**
You can't use any more freaky magic?
**[09:38] ---**
Magic?
**[09:40] ---**
If I call multiple Spirits in a row,
it quickly drains my magic power.
**[09:45] ---**
That's right!
**[09:48] ---**
So that's why Virgo gave me this!
**[09:52] ---**
Thank you...
**[09:55] ---**
I really appreciate how you
Spirits take care of me!
**[10:02] ---**
Just stand there and be squashed!
**[10:05] ---**
If I remember right, she said
it could expand and contract!
**[10:15] ---**
What?
**[10:20] ---**
Let her go!
**[10:23] ---**
She belongs to our army!
**[10:26] ---**
*You* have nothing to do with this!
**[10:30] ---**
You're hurting her!
**[10:31] ---**
And if I do this, I'll hurt her even more!
**[10:35] ---**
Look here, you...
**[10:37] ---**
Stop flitting around my body!
**[10:42] ---**
If she's one of you, shouldn't
you be protecting her?
**[10:48] ---**
I'll never lose to someone who
doesn't even understand that!
**[10:53] ---**
My leg!
**[10:55] ---**
When did she...?
**[11:00] ---**
I swear on the name of my guild!
**[11:04] ---**
You little brat!
**[11:06] ---**
What the... It's hot!
**[11:12] ---**
A real monster, huh?
**[11:14] ---**
I'm not a damn monster, you freak!
**[11:21] ---**
Natsu!
**[11:47] ---**
Bydo and Hughes have been beaten!
**[11:55] ---**
What's that giant thing?
**[11:58] ---**
Great job there, Natsu!
**[12:00] ---**
Huh? Someone's collapsed...
**[12:02] ---**
Are you okay?
**[12:04] ---**
You know her?
**[12:05] ---**
Not exactly.
**[12:09] ---**
What is it?
**[12:10] ---**
What's wrong?
**[12:11] ---**
You got a stomachache?
**[12:12] ---**
Why'd you think that?
**[12:14] ---**
This key is to a device that
will kill your friends.
**[12:18] ---**
What the...
**[12:20] ---**
You mean, the one that'll ram
the lacrima into Extalia?
**[12:24] ---**
So *that's* the key he was after?
**[12:29] ---**
I'd rather we all live in peace than
have an infinite supply of magic.
**[12:36] ---**
So... please, destroy this key!
**[12:42] ---**
Please!
**[12:45] ---**
Which means, all we have to do is break this,
**[12:47] ---**
and we can stop them from
attacking with the lacrima!
**[12:50] ---**
Thanks!
**[12:51] ---**
Okay! Leave it to me!
**[12:55] ---**
What?!
**[12:59] ---**
Now, now, Coco. You mustn't give something
as important as this to the enemy!
**[13:03] ---**
I must return it to our Highness.
**[13:06] ---**
Sugar Boy!
**[13:07] ---**
The key!
**[13:08] ---**
Oh, no!
**[13:09] ---**
Give it back!
**[13:12] ---**
You bastard! Hold it right there!
**[13:15] ---**
You again?
**[13:17] ---**
You ain't gettin' away!
**[13:19] ---**
Gray!
**[13:20] ---**
Natsu, Lucy!
**[13:22] ---**
That chinny idiot is mine!
**[13:24] ---**
Don't you go butting in!
**[13:26] ---**
In other words, leave the rest to me!
**[13:29] ---**
Quite persistent, you are. Even though
there's no chance for you to win...
**[13:33] ---**
Shut up! Now, stop right there!
**[13:35] ---**
I'm in a hurry!
**[13:38] ---**
Rossa Espada...
**[13:45] ---**
We'll head after 'im, too!
**[13:47] ---**
We've got to get that key back!
**[13:50] ---**
What's this?
**[13:51] ---**
This again?
**[13:53] ---**
What's going on, seriously?
**[13:55] ---**
Crap! I can't move!
**[13:57] ---**
Lucy, do something about this!
**[13:59] ---**
At times like this... Fleuve d'Etoile!
**[14:03] ---**
...huh?
**[14:06] ---**
Octopus! It's in my way! And heavy! And icky!
**[14:15] ---**
All attractions have been closed for today.
**[14:18] ---**
We'll be awaiting your next visit.
**[14:20] ---**
No!
**[14:26] ---**
Hold it!
**[14:28] ---**
And how are you sliding
along in the first place?
**[14:33] ---**
I don't know either!
**[14:35] ---**
O-Oh, I see.
**[14:36] ---**
So anyway, what is that key?
**[14:39] ---**
It's the key to activate
the Dragon Chain Cannon.
**[14:42] ---**
Dragon Chain?
**[14:43] ---**
Uh-oh! The rest is a secret.
**[14:47] ---**
Dragon Chain Cannon... Dragon?
**[14:49] ---**
It must be about the Dragon
Slayer Magic they stole!
**[14:53] ---**
If I remember right, Wendy told us about it.
**[14:55] ---**
They're going to speed up the floating island
with the lacrima on it with Dragon Slayer Magic,
**[14:59] ---**
and ram it into Extalia. That's
what the Kingdom is planning.
**[15:03] ---**
That's what she said.
**[15:05] ---**
This is something that
we cannot let you have.
**[15:09] ---**
Which means we can't let you
take it from us, either!
**[15:13] ---**
Ice Make Floor!
**[15:16] ---**
Ice isn't going to win against me...
**[15:20] ---**
It makes anything it touches flexible!
**[15:22] ---**
Rossa Espada!
**[15:29] ---**
Even if it's flexible, it
still has the same properties!
**[15:32] ---**
Properties like "ice floors are slippery"!
**[15:41] ---**
I told you that wouldn't work!
**[15:47] ---**
The key?
**[15:48] ---**
Time to bust it up!
**[16:03] ---**
Huh?
**[16:06] ---**
It's a bit cold, Ice Boy.
**[16:09] ---**
Don't go givin' me weird nicknames!
**[16:12] ---**
And why? Why won't it break?
**[16:14] ---**
Well, isn't it obvious? It's not
something that's so easy to break.
**[16:19] ---**
And, it's cold!
**[16:22] ---**
Would you be so kind as to let go?
**[16:24] ---**
It's not my style to hold
hands with other men.
**[16:28] ---**
Come on, now... Haven't you realized
our roles are flipped now?
**[16:34] ---**
What might you mean, Ice Boy?
**[16:36] ---**
Stop calling me that, sheesh!
**[16:38] ---**
Anyway...
**[16:40] ---**
You people might need this key, but we don't!
**[16:46] ---**
If I can't break it, I'll at least
make it so you can't use it!
**[16:50] ---**
Freeze!
**[16:56] ---**
Not going to work.
**[16:57] ---**
Have you forgotten? The Rossa
Esparda can make ice flexible.
**[17:02] ---**
You sure? If you're off just a
bit, the key'll be a bent-up mess.
**[17:10] ---**
I am very meticulous.
**[17:12] ---**
What the hell are you saying?!
**[17:15] ---**
I see... I should just cut *you* down!
**[17:25] ---**
I told you, it's no use!
**[17:29] ---**
You think I'm gonna lose?!
**[17:33] ---**
I'll freeze you first!
**[17:36] ---**
I won't let go, even if I'm dead!
**[17:42] ---**
I'll never let you!
**[17:50] ---**
Let go!
**[17:52] ---**
Freeze!
**[18:21] ---**
I-Impossible!
**[18:23] ---**
The key cracked!
**[18:24] ---**
Right, that's the way! I should
just break it like this!
**[18:27] ---**
Oh, no! This is bad!
**[18:30] ---**
Let go! The key is gonna break!
**[18:32] ---**
This thing holds the lives
of my friends hostage!
**[18:34] ---**
I'm gonna bust it to smithereens!
**[18:38] ---**
W-Wait!
**[18:40] ---**
This really is bad!
**[18:42] ---**
This key is something that you need!
**[18:45] ---**
What did you just say?
**[18:46] ---**
Whatever, just call a cease-fire for now!
**[18:48] ---**
The key's gonna break!
**[18:51] ---**
What are you talking about?!
**[18:56] ---**
W-With this key, you can return
your friends to the way they were!
**[19:06] ---**
You're bluffing.
**[19:08] ---**
It's the truth!
**[19:09] ---**
The Dragon Chain Cannon shoots
concentrated Dragon Slayer Magic!
**[19:13] ---**
Don't you know what Dragon Slayer
Magic is used for in this world?
**[19:21] ---**
I shattered the lacrima with Dragon
Slayer Magic to turn you back to normal.
**[19:26] ---**
I hear that on this world,
Dragon Slayer Magic
**[19:28] ---**
has the power to restore people
who have been turned into lacrima.
**[19:35] ---**
If you shoot the Dragon Chain Cannon into the
lacrima, your friends will return to how they were!
**[19:43] ---**
Understand now?
**[19:45] ---**
This key is important to both of us!
**[19:48] ---**
You can't destroy it!
**[19:52] ---**
We've got Gajeel, though.
**[19:54] ---**
And if it comes to it,
Natsu and Wendy as well!
**[19:57] ---**
We've got three Dragon Slayers!
**[20:00] ---**
We don't need this damn key!
**[20:03] ---**
But you don't know how many
days it'll take, right?
**[20:07] ---**
The conversion to magic
power will begin tomorrow!
**[20:10] ---**
Our plan is to ram the lacrima
into Extalia before that!
**[20:17] ---**
It's true that with three Dragon
Slayers, you can likely save many.
**[20:22] ---**
However, you can't save them all!
**[20:25] ---**
If you want to save everyone,
you cannot destroy this key!
**[20:30] ---**
Plus, there's a great number
of people from the city
**[20:33] ---**
that have nothing to do with
the guild in that lacrima, yes?
**[20:40] ---**
Now... Let go.
**[21:00] ---**
I won't give the key to you!
**[21:16] ---**
The key!!
**[21:19] ---**
Are you a total idiot? I
wasn't bluffing, you know!
**[21:25] ---**
You friends will never come back again!
**[21:32] ---**
Yes, they will. I will bring
them all back, safe and sound!
**[21:35] ---**
Back to our guild!
**[21:38] ---**
In the space between me and my weapon...
**[21:42] ---**
Ice Blade: Seven Strike Dance!
**[21:58] ---**
You're nuts, Ice Boy.
**[22:01] ---**
You actually destroyed the key...
**[22:05] ---**
Even though with that key, you
could save your friends...
**[22:14] ---**
I'm an Ice Maker Magic wizard.
**[22:20] ---**
I can make as many keys as I need.
**[23:55] ---**
We've got the key, so let's go save everyone!
**[23:59] ---**
Look, Erza's back!
**[24:01] ---**
Hey, Erza!
**[24:03] ---**
Wait a sec... Isn't that the Edolas Erza?
**[24:06] ---**
Oh, no... Does that mean our Erza lost?
**[24:10] ---**
God damn it... After we've come so far...
**[24:13] ---**
Next time: The Doomsday Dragon Chain Cannon.
**[24:16] ---**
What'll we do, Natsu? At
this rate, everyone...
**[24:19] ---**
Not yet... It's not over yet!
**[24:22] ---**
We'll save everyone, for sure!
