[00:03] ---
    I'm sure this will be the final night.
[00:07] ---
    For humans...
[00:09] ---
    and for me!
[01:43] ---
    You surely aren't thinking
    that the fall of Uruk was all your fault...
[01:49] ---
    that it was because you released Tiamat, right?
[01:56] ---
    Fools!
[01:57] ---
    No one's interested in your repentance!
[02:00] ---
    Mash...
[02:01] ---
    You told me only five hundred people survived
    from Sumer, didn't you? That's wrong.
[02:07] ---
    It wasn't only five hundred.
[02:09] ---
    It was the great number of five hundred.
[02:12] ---
    In my vision,
    I was the only one left in Uruk,
[02:19] ---
    but five hundred survived.
[02:23] ---
    I consider that a great achievement!
[02:26] ---
    You knew, didn't you?
[02:28] ---
    Yes.
[02:30] ---
    My people did, too.
[02:32] ---
    Does that mean...
[02:33] ---
    that all the civilians fought through all of this
    with an understanding of how it will end?
[02:38] ---
    Yes.
[02:39] ---
    Amazing.
[02:41] ---
    That is truly amazing!
[02:45] ---
    I like that smile, Mash Kyrielight!
[02:47] ---
    If you were to take pity on them,
    I would've ended your life here.
[02:52] ---
    You saved the people of Uruk,
    had compassion for this land,
[02:56] ---
    and chose to fight the goddesses.
[02:58] ---
    Those acts changed the future!
[03:01] ---
    Stop blaming yourselves.
[03:03] ---
    Be proud.
[03:04] ---
    That is what suits you most.
[03:11] ---
    What's wrong?
[03:18] ---
    Hola!
[03:20] ---
    Is something wrong?
[03:21] ---
    I was an enemy goddess for Uruk, no?
[03:27] ---
    I don't want to make them uneasy
    on their last night.
[03:31] ---
    So...
[03:32] ---
    let me stay here, okay?
[03:36] ---
    I had known...
[03:38] ---
    about the existence
    of the true form of Tiamat.
[03:40] ---
    Then, the fact that Gorgon wasn't Tiamat, too...
[03:43] ---
    Yes.
[03:44] ---
    But I was a bad goddess.
    So, I couldn't tell the truth, no.
[03:50] ---
    For Gorgon's sake?
[03:53] ---
    I didn't want you to be pitying her.
[03:56] ---
    I wanted you all to go up against
    her revenge with everything you had.
[04:00] ---
    But you found me out anyway, Fujimaru.
[04:04] ---
    Pathetic, no?
[04:07] ---
    It's not pathetic.
[04:12] ---
    Yeah.
[04:13] ---
    I hope not.
[04:17] ---
    Thank you. Is this Americano?
[04:19] ---
    No, it's Blue Mountain.
[04:21] ---
    Can't you tell from its scent?
[04:23] ---
    Unlike you guys,
    the world is full of unknowns for me.
[04:26] ---
    That said,
[04:28] ---
    I can't use ignorance
    as a shield to stop my progress.
[04:31] ---
    Is it vexing you?
[04:34] ---
    Yeah.
[04:36] ---
    But...
[04:37] ---
    what we can do is very limited.
[04:40] ---
    So, we simply have to make
    the best of what we've got.
[04:43] ---
    You're making me
    choke up ever so slightly.
[04:45] ---
    I don't know how to react.
[04:47] ---
    Here you go.
[04:49] ---
    Thanks. Where's Fujimaru?
[04:51] ---
    He was cleaning his bedroom,
    but he should be resting by now.
[04:56] ---
    What's that about?
    He's cleaning now of all times?
[04:58] ---
    I think it's Senpai's way
    of showing gratitude...
[05:01] ---
    to the people of Uruk.
[05:03] ---
    - Gratitude?
    - Yes.
[05:05] ---
    I don't think Senpai is thinking
    about Uruk being destroyed.
[05:09] ---
    I don't think he's sad about leaving, either.
[05:11] ---
    So, that's why he's acting
    like he always has been.
[05:14] ---
    You could say he's brazen.
[05:18] ---
    But you're a little different.
[05:21] ---
    You're scared of fighting, right?
[05:23] ---
    You're still not used to all of this.
[05:26] ---
    Yes.
[05:27] ---
    But...
[05:29] ---
    I don't let it bother me anymore.
[05:33] ---
    The reason you fear battle is because
    you know many things you care about.

[05:39] ---
    As long as your heart doesn't break with fear...
[05:44] ---
    nothing will ever stain your shield.
[05:47] ---
    You will never be defeated.
[05:55] ---
    Just like those lights.
[05:59] ---
    There, you can see the life of another person
    who shined in the distant past,
[06:04] ---
    separated by thousands of years.
[06:08] ---
    That's a good journey.
[06:09] ---
    Yes. It's a wonderful journey.
[06:21] ---
    This is so stupid.
[06:23] ---
    Why did I come here?
[06:26] ---
    Why don't you stand, fool?
[06:29] ---
    I won't allow you
    to put your corpse on display here.
[06:33] ---
    Swiftly begone.
[06:34] ---
    If you go, I will ignore your crimes.
[06:39] ---
    What's wrong? Can't you even stand?
[06:42] ---
    Weren't you supposed to be
    the gods' greatest creation?
[06:45] ---
    What gives you the right—
[06:51] ---
    Dammit! I can't let you...
[06:54] ---
    I can't let you see me like this!
[06:58] ---
    Dammit!
[07:00] ---
    Dammit!
[07:13] ---
    What's the meaning of this?
[07:14] ---
    I'm your enemy!
[07:16] ---
    I'm not your Enkidu!
[07:18] ---
    Not Enkidu...
[07:20] ---
    I'm not Enkidu!
[07:23] ---
    That's right.
    You're merely using his body.
[07:27] ---
    - Then, why are you—
    - However...
[07:29] ---
    ...you are still worthy of my protection...
    no, my friendship!
[07:33] ---
    What do you—
[07:34] ---
    Do I have to spell it out,
[07:36] ---
    you hopeless fool?
[07:38] ---
    Even if your heart and soul are different,
[07:41] ---
    that body of yours is the one and only
    Chain of the Heavens on Earth!
[07:49] ---
    Well, once, someone insisted
    they were a weapon to the very end.
[07:54] ---
    But if I had taken them at their word,
    then it's only natural for me to care for you.
[08:00] ---
    After all,
[08:02] ---
    you're the successor to the weapon
    I trusted most.
[08:07] ---
    What's wrong with me favoring you?
[08:11] ---
    It's the end of the world!
[08:13] ---
    Do as you will!
[08:15] ---
    Wait! What do you...
[08:18] ---
    No matter who your mother is
    or how you were born,
[08:21] ---
    simply do the things
    you really want to do.
[08:24] ---
    Like you and I once did.
[08:31] ---
    What? It's too late.
[08:34] ---
    I never had a will of my own
    to choose freedom.
[08:42] ---
    Those legs may be too thin
    to support that giant body.
[08:45] ---
    We should assume Tiamat
    can only walk on the black mud.
[08:50] ---
    Both myself and Chaldea
    believe this theory is dead-on.
[08:53] ---
    In other words,
[08:54] ---
    that black mud is a path
    made for Tiamat to travel.

[08:59] ---
    Indeed.
[09:00] ---
    Which means if we get rid of that,
    we can stop her movement.
[09:04] ---
    Thus, Chaldea is currently seeking means
    to revert that black mud to normal seawater—
[09:08] ---
    I have a report!
[09:10] ---
    The south observation post confirms
    that Tiamat has resumed her advance!
[09:13] ---
    We estimate eight more hours
    until she reaches Uruk City!
[09:16] ---
    That's half a day earlier than expected!
[09:18] ---
    Even if we analyze in time, we won't have time
    to create the decomposition agent!

[09:22] ---
    General, take fifty elites from the wall!
[09:26] ---
    We must destroy those legs,
    even if by brute force—
[09:28] ---
    There's no need for that!
[09:30] ---
    My Noble Phantasm is enough to clear
    a perimeter of the black mud around Tiamat!
[09:35] ---
    Oh, you had that!
[09:38] ---
    "That"?
[09:39] ---
    Don't tell me...
[09:40] ---
    Yes! The Sun Stone
    that was at the altar in Eridu!
[09:45] ---
    It's a really good thing
    that Fujimaru didn't shatter it earlier!
[09:50] ---
    Can I trust you with this?
[09:52] ---
    Si. But...
[09:54] ---
    There's the risk...
[09:55] ---
    of staying close to Mother to continually provide
    Magical Energy while holding the Laḫmu back.
[10:01] ---
    Right.
[10:02] ---
    It's terribly dangerous.
[10:04] ---
    All right!
[10:06] ---
    Let's do it!
[10:09] ---
    Very well!
[10:10] ---
    If that's been decided,
[10:12] ---
    all we need to do now is act!
[10:14] ---
    Everyone, hurry and begin preparations!
[10:16] ---
    Let's show them what we can do!
[10:18] ---
    Roger!
[11:04] ---
    I declare to all remaining citizens of Uruk!
[11:07] ---
    Over six months ago, when the Demonic Front
    was set up, I told all of you...
[11:12] ---
    No matter what we do,
[11:14] ---
    Uruk will fall.
[11:17] ---
    You can flee.
[11:19] ---
    You can drown in pleasures.
[11:21] ---
    You can throw yourselves
    down to the underworld in despair.
[11:24] ---
    However, you all said you would fight!
[11:28] ---
    Despite knowing the end was coming,
    you were determined to resist!
[11:32] ---
    Truly, Uruk was a fortunate city.
[11:36] ---
    Its history, its life, its people...
[11:40] ---
    Myself included.
[11:44] ---
    I will say it once again!
[11:45] ---
    Uruk will fall!
[11:47] ---
    It is a fact that we can no longer change!
[11:50] ---
    However, there is no need
    to lament! Why is that?
[11:54] ---
    Because if there's just one person
    who can see the dawn of victory,
[11:58] ---
    our ways of life will be engraved
    in that one's heart!
[12:02] ---
    Even if we are to die,
[12:04] ---
    even if we cannot bear offspring,
[12:06] ---
    the people will leave behind
    a will within themselves!
[12:08] ---
    That's the bonds of power
    that people have!
[12:11] ---
    An inheritance by intellect,
    not through blood,
[12:14] ---
    a succession of lives!
[12:16] ---
    The fall of Uruk does not mean we also fall!
[12:20] ---
    We will be radiant on the dawn of victory,
    and tether a generation with that light!
[12:25] ---
    Mind yourselves, my elite warriors!
[12:28] ---
    Now is the time to deny the primordial god...
[12:30] ---
    and begin the age of man!
[12:33] ---
    This is the battle
    for true separation from the gods!
[12:37] ---
    Give your lives to me, the king!
[12:40] ---
    Pass on the glory that is Uruk
    to generations to come, to the last man!
[12:51] ---
    Mash...
[12:53] ---
    Let's make sure we succeed!
[12:55] ---
    Okay!
[13:05] ---
    Tiamat will soon be within visual range.
[13:08] ---
    - I left Jaguar to deal with things on land.
    - That helps us?
[13:15] ---
    I see her!
[13:17] ---
    Just how many...
[13:21] ---
    First wave incoming!
[13:24] ---
    I've gotten tired of waiting!
    I'm heading out!
[13:39] ---
    We have gotten past the first enemy wave!
[13:42] ---
    New Spirit Origin signals seen on radar!
[13:44] ---
    Additionally, one... Two...
[13:46] ---
    Increasing further!
[13:50] ---
    This isn't good! You'll be surrounded!
[13:53] ---
    Your right!
[13:55] ---
    Senpai!
[13:56] ---
    They're coming again!
[14:00] ---
    Oh, how unfortunate!
[14:02] ---
    I was a bit rash...
[14:05] ---
    again.
[14:08] ---
    Get around!
[14:10] ---
    What a sassy move!
[14:13] ---
    We have no time to deal with you!
[14:20] ---
    Ishtar!
[14:21] ---
    I know already!
[14:26] ---
    Ishtar!
[14:35] ---
    Benkei!
[14:36] ---
    I apologize for my lateness!
[14:38] ---
    Allow me to take some responsibility
    for the crimes of my lord!
[14:42] ---
    Why are you here
    after so much has passed?
[14:44] ---
    Such foolhardy courage is unlike you,
[14:47] ---
    Hitachibou!
[14:49] ---
    You were as free as a storm.
    To be consumed with such anger...
[14:55] ---
    I cannot possibly bear it!
[14:58] ---
    Shut up!
[15:06] ---
    How much farther?
[15:07] ---
    Ten kilometers left!
[15:09] ---
    Still that far?
[15:10] ---
    Mother is already right
    in front of the Fang of Napishtim!
[15:14] ---
    Wait! Is that side...
[15:16] ---
    a pack of Laḫmu?
[15:23] ---
    - What are you thinking?
    - What are you doing?
[15:24] ---
    I'm going to cut across!
[15:26] ---
    We don't have the time to skirt around the pack
    while dealing with Ushiwaka!
[15:29] ---
    Besides...
[15:31] ---
    They are simply a rabble, sure to be
    a nuisance for Lord Yoshitsune, as well!
[15:36] ---
    Jeez!
[15:37] ---
    It's all or nothing!
[15:42] ---
    Dammit!
[15:45] ---
    Three kilometers to target!
[15:47] ---
    Everyone, brace yourselves for Quetzalcoatl's
    unleashing of her Noble Phantasm!
[15:50] ---
    Got i—
[15:52] ---
    What do you think you're doing?
[15:56] ---
    Even if you were to scheme
    this late in the game, it's useless—
[16:06] ---
    Th-The swarm now has a hole!
[16:07] ---
    Fujimaru! This is goodbye!
[16:10] ---
    Please supply me properly
    with Magical Energy!
[16:13] ---
    Roger!
[16:14] ---
    I'll distance myself as far as I can
    without severing the path!
[16:16] ---
    Come with m—
[16:18] ---
    Benkei! You'll get caught in the blast!
[16:21] ---
    Benkei!
[16:24] ---
    I appreciate you guarding me,
[16:27] ---
    but I'll incinerate you
    along with everything else.
[16:30] ---
    I couldn't ask for better!
[16:36] ---
    Leave this to me!
[16:43] ---
    The past is here!
[16:45] ---
    The present is here!
[16:51] ---
    Dammit!
[16:51] ---
    The future is here!
[16:57] ---
    Come winds...
[16:58] ---
    come lightning!
[17:00] ---
    When the morning star shines...
[17:02] ---
    Die!
[17:06] ---
    ...let all know the Sun's light reaches
    every corner of the Earth!

[17:10] ---
    Piedra...
[17:13] ---
    Del...
[17:15] ---
    Like I'd let you!
[17:19] ---
    This time for sure,
[17:21] ---
    I'll be your companion until the very end!
[17:23] ---
    Damn you!
[17:25] ---
    ...Sol!
[17:37] ---
    Such foolhardy courage
    is truly unlike you, Hitachibou.
[17:51] ---
    Confirming the unleashing
    of the Noble Phantasm "Piedra Del Sol"!
[17:54] ---
    The black mud is burning away
    at amazing speed!
[17:57] ---
    What is it?
[17:58] ---
    Along with the black mud,
[17:59] ---
    the Spirit Origin signals for Ushiwakamaru
    and Benkei have completely disappeared.
[18:05] ---
    I see.
[18:07] ---
    Tiamat...
[18:12] ---
    ...has stopped!
[18:14] ---
    Tiamat's advance has stopped! Success!
[18:17] ---
    Quetzalcoatl is still continuing
    to unleash her Noble Phantasm!
[18:21] ---
    If we can keep buying time like this,
    the gates of the underworld will open up!
[18:25] ---
    Yeah. If that happens, victory is ours!
[18:43] ---
    What is that?
[18:48] ---
    Is she trying to get back up?
[18:50] ---
    I thought she was unable
    to support her own weight!
[18:52] ---
    She supposedly can't!
[18:57] ---
    Magical Energy is concentrating
    around her horns and rear skeleton,
[19:01] ---
    and success in standing
    with disregard to her own weight.
[19:03] ---
    Can it be...
[19:09] ---
    Sh-She can fly?
[19:12] ---
    No way! That's impossible!
    Mother is a goddess of Earth!
[19:15] ---
    She shouldn't be able
    to approach the heavens!
[19:17] ---
    The fact that she can fly means
    that she won't fall into the underworld, either!
[19:21] ---
    Senpai! This means
    that our strategy won't work!
[19:25] ---
    The weapons of Mesopotamia cannot hurt it.
[19:28] ---
    I was the one who said that.
[19:36] ---
    However,
[19:37] ---
    I am a Divinity of a distant mystic land!
[19:41] ---
    The Primordial God of Mesopotamia,
    you are nothing to me!
[19:44] ---
    Witness the power
    of our underworld, Xibalba,
[19:47] ---
    and the cataclysmic impact
    that annihilated countless lives!
[19:53] ---
    I shall burn everything away...
[19:55] ---
    and become the comet that killed Earth!
[19:58] ---
    Ultimo Tope...
[20:01] ---
    Patada!
[20:21] ---
    I don't have enough power
    to go beyond this wall!

[20:25] ---
    O Command Spell!
[20:26] ---
    Bring victory to Quetzalcoatl!
[20:34] ---
    Burning fighting spirit, Xiuhcoatl!
[20:57] ---
    Don't lose, Quetzalcoatl!
[21:26] ---
    This can't be...
[21:27] ---
    Even with an attack of that caliber,
[21:30] ---
    we still can't reach her!
[21:33] ---
    This isn't good! This is bad! At this rate...
[21:36] ---
    Doctor!
[21:37] ---
    Analyze the damage done to Tiamat!
[21:39] ---
    We might be able to find a way
    to break through from the wound's location!

[21:42] ---
    Got it!
[21:43] ---
    Ishtar, intercept the Laḫmu
    that we can see to the northwest!
[21:46] ---
    Roger!
[21:48] ---
    Mash!
[21:51] ---
    Unleash your Noble Phantasm
    in front of the enemy!
[21:53] ---
    I want to buy as much time as possible!
[21:55] ---
    But Senpai, your Magical Energy...
[21:57] ---
    I'm fine!
[21:59] ---
    I can still do this!
[22:02] ---
    Senpai! Anything more is sure to...
[22:06] ---
    Even then,
[22:08] ---
    we can't afford to stop dead in our tracks!
[22:14] ---
    I understand.
[22:15] ---
    I'll d—
[22:21] ---
    Is that...
[22:44] ---
    Gorgon!
[22:46] ---
