[00:02] Obi; narration
    Causes of death are many and varied.
[00:04] Obi; narration
    Old age, suicide, illness...
[00:08] Obi; narration
    But the cause of death that scares
    the most people in this day and age...
[00:17] Obi; narration
    is death by fire.

    The suspect, Captain Akitaru Obi of Special
    Fire Force Company 8, has been arrested.

    At present, the Imperial Army considers the
    members of Special Fire Force Company 8

    to be suspects and are in the
    midst of searching for them.

    a crossfire full of enemies.

    it is but one trial bestowed upon humans
    in order for us to reach the sun.

    By overcoming our trials, humanity shall
    become a sun and be transformed into flame.
[01:04] Hinawa
    Can we trust Joker?
[01:06] Licht
    If you trust me, then please trust him too.
[01:11] Licht
    He is Tokyo's dark hero.
[01:15] Joker
    And Obi isn't the only light I've found.
[01:20] Joker
    You're one, too, Shinra Kusakabe.
[01:24] Gold
    I do not vanquish people with money.
[01:26] Gold
    Don't worry. I shall soon set you free.
[01:30] Gold
    However, you will have to become an Infernal.
[01:33] Joker
    Go make an enthusiastically
    explosive entrance, would you?
[01:36] Shinra
    I was already planning on it!
[01:59] Shinra

[04:07] Shinra
    Where is Captain Obi?
[04:11] Burns
    Akitaru Obi.
[04:14] Burns
    As a reward for devoting his
    heart and mind to Sol...
[04:18] Burns
    He will return to the flames!
[04:22] Shinra
    Why, Captain Burns? Why are you doing this?
[04:27] Burns
    Until now, I have devoted
    my life to serving god.
[04:31] Burns
    It was my duty, my way of life.
[04:35] Burns
    But through my experience of that Adolla Link,
    doubt in god was born within me.
[05:09] Burns
    And now, through the Evangelist, I have
    sensed a god which I cannot doubt...
[05:15] Burns
    a truth which must be believed.
[05:18] Burns
    In which case, devoting myself to
    this god must be my way of life.
[05:29] Joker
    You're right. That Adolla place
    seemed like god's realm.
[05:34] Joker
    But I never made any vows to god,
    so I didn't see fairness or justice there.
[05:41] Shinra
    The White Clad are trying to cause a
    Great Cataclysm to destroy the world!
[05:47] Burns
    After calamity there is regeneration.
[05:51] Burns
    Destruction is not the end.
[05:53] Burns
    Before god, human logic is no more than ego!
[05:58] Shinra
    What about all the people in Tokyo
    you've saved? What'll happen to them?
[06:10] Burns
    Sacrifices come with all actions.
[06:16] Burns
    All the more so in great undertakings.
[06:20] Shinra
    Captain!
[06:24] Burns
    Akitaru Obi.
[06:26] Burns
    Humanity will lose a tremendous presence.
[06:30] Burns
    What will we gain in return?
[06:36] Shinra
    Is that what you truly believe?!

    If this battle drags on,
[07:46] Joker
    the amount of heat Burns accumulates
    will just keep increasing.
[08:00] Joker
    The more time you give him,
    the stronger he'll get.
[08:04] Joker
    And then he'll be more than you can handle.
[08:13] Shinra; internal
    Captain Burns...
[08:15] Shinra; internal
    what are you thinking?
[08:28] Shinra; internal
    Why would a fire soldier who
    battles flames do this?
[08:32] Shinra; internal
    For me, you always...
[08:37] Shinra; internal
    felt sort of like a father.
[08:41] Shinra
    Why did you change like this?
[08:45] Shinra
    You're not even gonna give me
    time to hear your reasons?
[09:04] Burns
    The 8th will come.
[09:06] Burns
    This is where I will make my stand.
[09:09] Burns
    May I ask that the rest
    of you please stay way?
[09:13] Haumea
    Very well. The Destroyers will stand aside.
    We'll leave this to you.
[09:18] Burns
    I will intercept and engage
    the Fourth Pillar.
[09:33] Charon
    What's wrong, Haumea?
[09:37] Haumea
    I'm a little tired, that's all.
[09:40] Haumea
    Don't make such a fuss over every
    little thing! It's suffocating.
[09:50] Karim
    Turn this planet into a sun?
[09:53] Karim
    No matter how many times, or how major,
[09:55] Karim
    a Great Cataclysm they
    trigger on this earth,
[09:58] Karim
    there's no way this planet'll
    turn into a sun!
[10:00] Karim
    With that kind of logic,
    they're no better than a cult!
[10:02] Karim
    And they expect us to believe 'em?
[10:05] Karim
    Why is Captain Burns helping the White Clad
    when they're saying such stupid stuff?
[10:12] Huo Yan
    It shows how terrifying the world of
    Adolla he once saw must have been.
[10:18] Karim
    Even if it was, I can't believe
    he'd turn the world into a sun.
[10:25] Huo Yan
    Still, all we can do is trust
    in god and take action.
[10:30] Huo Yan
    I'm certain that Captain Burns
    is doing the same.
[10:33] Karim
    Even so, tying Captain Obi up
    like that just isn't right.
[10:57] Licht
    We'll arrive in Fuchu soon!
[10:59] Vulcan
    Time to storm the place!
[11:01] Hinawa
    We're far behind Shinra and Joker!
[11:03] Hinawa
    Get ready!
[11:10] Maki
    U-Um...
[11:14] Maki
    It's dangerous to stand while
    the vehicle is moving.
[11:17] Maki
    Lieutenant, you're always telling us to—
[11:19] Hinawa
    Shut up.
[11:21] Hinawa
    We're rebels now!
[11:23] Hinawa
    We can lean out of car windows
    or whatever else we want!
[11:26] Hinawa
    Don't hold back!
[11:27] Hinawa
    We're going out there to raze the
    Fuchu Penitentiary to the ground!
[11:31] Hinawa
    Demolish the prison!
[11:34] Tamaki
    I don't know why, but it doesn't feel
    like he only just became a rebel.
[11:38] Maki
    Yeah, he seems used to being a rebel.
[11:40] Hinawa
    What's wrong? You're all acting too meek!
[11:43] Hinawa
    Demolish the prison!
[11:48] Lisa; Iris; Maki; Tamaki
    D-Demolish the prison!
[11:51] Hinawa
    I can't hear you! Demolish the prison!
[11:54] Lisa; Iris; Maki; Tamaki
    Demolish the prison!
[11:56] Hinawa
    You can do better than that!
[11:57] Lisa; Iris; Maki; Tamaki
    Demolish the prison!
[11:59] Hinawa
    Again!
[12:00] Lisa; Iris; Maki; Tamaki
    Demolish the prison!
[12:11] Stream
    Burns has experienced an Adolla Link, right?
[12:14] Stream
    Why are you letting him live?
[12:16] Gold
    Haumea deems him necessary
    to this playground.
[12:20] Gold
    Apparently, she is planning to
    link him to a doppelganger.
[12:25] Gold
    We are to prepare to intercept
    the rest of the 8th.
[12:30] Gold
    The darkness of despair is the encouragement
    that will lead this planet to the sun.
[12:34] Gold
    Together with despair,
    we shall destroy them.
[12:40] Destroyer B
    And Haumea?
[12:43] Gold
    Still in the sanctum in the Nether.
[12:46] Gold
    She is gathering the collective unconscious.
[13:08] Yona
    As usual, I do come in quite
    the troublesome form, don't I?
[13:15] Charon
    Yona, is it?
[13:16] Yona
    Charon.
[13:21] Yona
    It seems that Haumea's gathering of the
    collective unconscious is going very well.
[13:28] Charon
    I can't stand to watch.
[13:30] Yona
    We are now in the age of deciphering pi.
[13:35] Yona
    The time is near.
[13:40] Charon
    If it means that I no longer
    have to watch Haumea suffer...
[13:44] Charon
    then I don't care what it takes.

    Why do all of these
    investigations connect here?
[14:38] Hibana
    The convent where both Iris and I lived...
[14:41] Hibana
    Are you telling me it's caught
    up in some kind of experiments?
[14:49] Hibana
    The fire that consumed the
    sisters was man-made arson.
[14:52] Hibana
    And it's connected to
    doppelgangers in some fashion?
[15:00] Hibana
    If that's true...
[15:05] Gold
    Burns is handling the Fourth Pillar.
[15:08] Gold
    The remaining members of
    the 8th will be here soon.
[15:11] Destroyer B
    I see.
[15:13] Stream
    Then we will destroy them.
[15:17] Gold
    Their plan is to use the Fourth Pillar and
    his ally as decoys while they infiltrate.
[15:23] Gold
    We do not know where they
    will choose to enter.
[15:25] Gold
    Let us take care to watch the rear entrance.
[15:28] Gold
    This wall. They cannot enter directly here.
[15:51] Hinawa
    Find Captain Obi!
[15:53] Hinawa
    Anyone who gets in the way...
    will be unilaterally pulverized!
[15:57] Destroyer B
    They came in directly.
[15:59] Stream
    That was a good setup, Gold.
[16:04] Maki
    They've already found us, Lieutenant.
[16:06] Hinawa
    What?
[16:07] Vulcan
    Well, they would, wouldn't they?
[16:10] Hinawa
    Vulcan, stand by at the rear.
    You and Licht back us up.
[16:14] Vulcan
    Yes, sir!
[16:15] Hinawa
    Arthur, you take point and
    see how things are looking.
[16:21] Hinawa
    Arthur?
[16:23] Maki
    Huh?
[16:24] Tamaki
    Now that I think about it, I feel
    like I haven't seen him in a while.
[16:27] Maki
    Could he have fallen from
    the truck along the way?
[16:30] Vulcan
    Come on. You can't be serious?
    Without him, who'll take point?
[16:35] Hinawa
    That's why I've always said not to
    stand up while we're traveling.
[16:39] Gold
    To think you'd attack so directly.
[16:42] Gold
    It appears you lacked the
    time to plan properly.
[16:47] Gold
    The cost of passage is your lives.
[16:49] Gold
    Ka-ching.
[16:51] Maki
    We don't have Shinra, Arthur,
    or the captain. Who will take point?
[16:56] Hinawa
    Either you or I have to do it, Maki.
[16:58] Tamaki
    We have a point person!
[17:01] Tamaki
    I have a strong resistance
    to fire, so I'll do it!
[17:05] Maki
    Tamaki...
[17:09] Maki
    There's no guarantee that their
    attacks will involve flames.
[17:13] Maki
    Be careful!
[17:14] Tamaki
    Leave it to me.
[17:16] Tamaki
    My top speed is nowhere near Shinra's,
[17:19] Tamaki
    but I've got him beat in maneuverability!
[17:21] Tamaki
    I'll move as fast as possible!
[17:25] Gold
    The cost of passage has increased
    by one person. Ka-ching.
[17:29] Hinawa
    Maki, we're Tamaki's support!
[17:32] Maki
    Yes, sir!
[17:34] Vulcan
    Licht, is the visual field
    clear? Can you see?
[17:37] Licht
    We're on the other side of the wall.
    The video feed is perfect.
[17:41] Licht
    And I can confirm visuals on our enemies.
[17:43] Vulcan
    We two are running back up for those three!
[17:46] Licht
    Leave it to me!
[17:53] Tamaki
    This should do it!
[17:56] Gold
    You think that if it comes
    from above it will hit me?
[18:00] Tamaki
    Take this! Nekomata—
[18:05] Hinawa
    Tamaki! Pull back from there!
[18:11] Tamaki
    My shot was turned back at me?
[18:13] Hinawa
    Maki, take control!
[18:14] Maki
    Yes, sir!
[18:16] Gold
    A powerful second generation pyrokinetic.
[18:20] Gold
    But it's to no avail.
[18:22] Tamaki
    Maki-san!
[18:30] Gold
    I have missed my chance to collect the toll.
[18:34] Gold
    Well, no matter.
[18:36] Maki
    Thank you.
[18:38] Hinawa
    What did meddling with
    her abilities feel like?
[18:40] Maki
    I sensed some kind of
    power in her right arm,
[18:43] Maki
    but it felt more like heat than flames.
[18:46] Maki
    I wasn't able to take control of it.
[18:51] Gold
    We Destroyers are experts
    in countering powers.
[18:56] Gold
    You seem quite impressive
    for the second generation,
[18:58] Gold
    but you cannot cope with this.
[19:14] Joker
    Crap. That was fast, wasn't it?
[19:19] Joker
    He's already entered Stage II.
[19:24] Joker
    At this rate, he's just gonna get
    harder and harder to handle.
[19:28] Joker
    Or maybe I should say it's already too late.
[19:39] Vulcan
    Licht! Have you figured out anything
    about the enemy's abilities?
[19:42] Licht
    It seems like that golden
    right arm holds some secrets,
[19:46] Licht
    but that's all I have right now.
[19:48] Licht
    But I promise that I will find the answers.
[19:51] Licht
    Because combat and analysis are
    how the Fire Force fights.
[19:55] Vulcan
    You got that right.
[19:57] Vulcan
    Analysis will be done soon!
[19:58] Tamaki
    Great!
[20:00] Hinawa
    And we're regrouping!
[20:02] Maki; Tamaki
    Yes, sir!
[20:04] Gold
    What was that? A discussion about money?
[20:06] Gold
    But even should you try to bribe
    me, it will be to no avail.
[20:09] Gold
    A break in the flow of money is
    a break in the flow of luck.
[20:12] Gold
    Even alone, I am more than enough
    of a match for all of you.
[20:19] Tamaki
    I'm gonna do this!
[20:20] Tamaki
    Hey! I'm gonna make you regret
    underestimating the 8th, you jerk!
[20:24] Maki
    It doesn't matter how
    many of you come at us!
[20:26] Vulcan
    We'll just force our way through here!
[20:28] Hinawa
    Let's go!
