    "Holy Sol Temple, Imperial Seat"
[00:06] ---
    "Imperial Throne Room"
[00:07] ---
    Your Excellency, there is no need
    for you to appear personally.
[00:10] ---
    While this situation can certainly not
    be ignored, you can allow us to...
[00:13] ---
    It's all right. Assemble the captains
    from all the companies.
[00:27] ---
    Goodness.
[00:28] ---
    What have we here?
[00:30] ---
    "Muscle-brain" "Gorilla"
    "Give Shinra a raise!!!"
[00:40] ---
    Shinra!
[00:41] ---
    My locker has been violated again!
    Enough, already!
[00:45] ---
    I didn't do anything, sir!
[00:47] ---
    Shinra is eating the lunch that
    I made for him. Don't interrupt.
[00:53] ---
    Is this your doing again? What is the
    captain of the 5th even doing here?
[00:59] ---
    I was going to go to the captains'
    conference together with you.
[01:05] ---
    D-Don't get the wrong idea.
[01:06] ---
    When I bought the sweet roll to
    fill up on before the conference,
[01:09] ---
    I'd forgotten about my lunch.
[01:11] ---
    I couldn't eat it by myself,
    and it's a shame to waste it.
[01:14] ---
    So I had no choice but to give it to Shinra.
[01:16] ---
    That's not what I was asking about.
[01:19] ---
    Shinra!
[01:20] ---
    Do something about this girl!
[01:22] ---
    Huh? But, sir, the lunch is really good.
[01:25] ---
    Oh, yeah? It's good, is it?
[01:28] ---
    Damn it, she's baiting him.
[01:31] ---
    I'll treat you to as much ramen
    as you like sometime soon!
[01:34] ---
    Ramen, you say?
[01:36] ---
    I'm coming, too.
[01:38] ---
    What are you doing back?
[01:40] ---
    Huh?
[01:40] ---
    I'm coming, too.
[01:42] ---
    Captain, run!
[01:49] ---
    What happened to her "lucky"?
[01:53] ---
    Hey, Maki, do you want any--
[01:59] ---
    Hinawa, they're playing
    with fire inside the office.
[02:03] ---
    I need to confirm the route to Central.
[02:06] ---
    Stop it, you idiot! You skirt-devil!
[02:09] ---
    You did that yourself!
[02:10] ---
    Farewell, skirt-devil.
[02:13] ---
    There's a delicious bakery near here.
[02:15] ---
    Ah, nee-san, that's an old one.
    Of course we know of it.
[02:19] ---
    They just started selling something new,
    with strawberries on it!
[02:25] ---
    This place sure has gotten lively.
[02:35] ---
    The darkness is illuminated
[02:36] ---
    The days we've grown accustomed
    to walking are weeded out
[02:40] ---
    My dream might be to make a stable living
[02:43] ---
    but I'll moan over the lack of stimulation
[02:45] ---
    The end is illuminated
[02:47] ---
    Where are the streets we're
    accustomed to walking?
[02:50] ---
    Time can sometimes be irksome,
[02:53] ---
    but we're enveloped in warmth
[02:56] ---
    Flames rise to show us the way
[03:00] ---
    reminding us of a gentle melody
[03:07] ---
    There is no eternity, none at all, they say
[03:13] ---
    I just smile, thinking that's fine with me
[03:18] ---
    If we shine, someday, our light will go out
[03:22] ---
    We'll keep on walking until the day
[03:28] ---
    the fire of our lives gets doused
[03:33] ---
    Playthings that make sounds
[03:36] ---
    and magic that chases pain away
[03:39] ---
    are all precious treasures to me
[03:44] ---
    There is no eternity, none at all, they say
[03:48] ---
    We'll keep on walking until the day
[03:54] ---
    the fire of our lives gets doused
[04:04] ---
    Are you sure it's okay for
    Tamaki and me to attend, sir?
[04:07] ---
    The topic of this conference
    is the Evangelist
[04:10] ---
    and the White-Clad organization.
[04:12] ---
    Having been directly involved,
    we're going to need your reports.
[04:16] ---
    Do all the captains meet together often?
[04:20] ---
    No, not once since I took command of the 8th.
[04:24] ---
    That should tell you
    how urgent a matter this is.
[04:38] ---
    Man-made Infernals...
[04:42] ---
    Direct hit on target.
    Hoshimiya has been eliminated.
[04:45] ---
    We'll report this to the commander.
    We're withdrawing.
[04:48] ---
    The White-Clad...
[04:50] ---
    Click!
[04:51] ---
    "Click!"
[04:51] ---
    Behold the brilliance of the star
    of flames ensconced in the heavens!
[04:55] ---
    We will return to the bosom of the great Sol!
[04:59] ---
    Turn all people into flames, and engulf
    the earth in the great flame of fire!
[05:05] ---
    Incinerate this imperfect earth and
    its humanity in the flames of salvation!
[05:09] ---
    All according to the will of the Evangelist.
[05:13] ---
    And the Evangelist...
[05:16] ---
    There's no doubt we're closing in on
    the cause behind Infernals appearing.
[05:24] ---
    Ah! Is that, by any chance...?
[05:29] ---
    What, Kusakabe, you've never seen it before?
[05:32] ---
    That's the power station that was built
    at the beginning of the Solar calendar.
[05:37] ---
    Amaterasu, the perpetual
    thermal energy plant.
[05:40] ---
    "The perpetual thermal
    energy plant Amaterasu"
[05:42] ---
    Amaterasu produces all
    of the energy for Tokyo.
[05:47] ---
    All from that one facility?
    It must have out-of-this-world firepower.
[06:00] ---
    Thanks for everything you did the other day.
[06:03] ---
    No, I should be the one to thank you.
[06:09] ---
    Company 1 Lieutenant Karim Flam.
[06:15] ---
    I heard all about what happened from Shinra.
[06:18] ---
    I want to learn the truth about Rekka.
    I intend to work with the 8th on that.
[06:24] ---
    I hear you're a capable man. Thanks.
[06:36] ---
    I thought you were supposed to
    be with Haijima, like me.
[06:41] ---
    What are you talking about?
[06:42] ---
    It looks to me like you're spending
    a lot of time with the 8th.
[06:46] ---
    Hmph, you're being ridiculous.
[06:50] ---
    The captains' conference is about to start.
[06:57] ---
    "Special Fire Force Company 1 Captain"
    "Leonard Burns"
[07:00] ---
    "Special Fire Force Company 2 Captain"
    "Gustav Honda"
[07:07] ---
    "Special Fire Force Company 3 Captain"
    "Dr. Giovanni"
[07:09] ---
    "Special Fire Force Company 4 Captain"
    "Soichiro Hague"
[07:15] ---
    "Special Fire Force Company 5 Captain"
    "Princess Hibana"
[07:18] ---
    "Special Fire Force Company 6 Captain"
    "Kayoko Huang"
[07:24] ---
    "Special Fire Force Company 7 Captain"
    "Benimaru Shinmon"
[07:29] ---
    "Special Fire Force Company 8 Captain"
    "Akitaru Obi"
[07:39] ---
    The 7th is here, and they normally
    don't show up to anything.
[07:42] ---
    This really is a big deal.
[07:44] ---
    So that man is the renowned
    mightiest Fire Soldier of all?
[07:49] ---
    The 7th's captain...?
[07:51] ---
    What's so funny, you little brat?
[07:54] ---
    Waka...
[08:06] ---
    Hey, Kusakabe!
[08:10] ---
    Each company's captain seems to be here.
[08:16] ---
    "Tokyo Empire Emperor"
    "Raffles III"
[08:20] ---
    All right, let's begin this
    emergency conference.
[08:25] ---
    I've spoken with the
    general of the Tokyo Army
[08:27] ---
    and the chief of the Fire Defense Agency.
[08:30] ---
    They say that there are some who are
    acting in secret to threaten our nation.
[08:35] ---
    Their actions defile the divine protection
    granted to us by the great Sol.
[08:40] ---
    All companies of the Special Fire Force,
[08:43] ---
    you are to bring down
    the Evangelist as a traitor.
[08:46] ---
    "Great Sol" my ass. What a load.
[08:49] ---
    Benimaru Shinmon!
    Your disrespect is beyond the pale!
[08:53] ---
    Apologize to the emperor before the
    punishment of Gustav Honda befalls you!
[08:57] ---
    Shut up, Honda Gustav.
    My name is Shinmon Benimaru.
[09:02] ---
    A proto-national name...
[09:04] ---
    So you're a proto-nationalist.
[09:08] ---
    We in the 7th are a gang of idiots who
    used to just be the neighborhood watch.
[09:12] ---
    I don't remember swearing an oath
    of loyalty to the empire or to Sol.
[09:17] ---
    The 7th will do whatever we want.
[09:19] ---
    Hold it! We aren't finished talking yet!
[09:21] ---
    Stop right there!
[09:30] ---
    Ahem.
[09:32] ---
    In any case, all companies are to come
    together to pursue the Evangelist.
[09:40] ---
    This will indeed be the path to
    save humanity from the flame terror.
[09:44] ---
    You're getting closer, aren't you?
[09:48] ---
    Devil's Footprints...
[09:51] ---
    That was surprisingly quick.
    He's got some potential.
[09:56] ---
    Maybe I'll go and see him again.
[09:59] ---
    Shinra Kusakabe-kun...
[10:01] ---
    Yes, Your Excellency?
[10:03] ---
    I understand you possess an Adolla Burst.
[10:11] ---
    That is what Rekka Hoshimiya told me, sir.
[10:16] ---
    What exactly is an Adolla Burst?
[10:19] ---
    It is an unsullied, pure flame.
[10:23] ---
    The primordial flame, and the spark
    that Sol used when creating this world.
[10:28] ---
    Did you happen to see it on your way here?
[10:32] ---
    Amaterasu, the perpetual
    thermal energy plant.
[10:36] ---
    The source flame that provides all
    of the energy for the Tokyo Empire.
[10:41] ---
    That flame is no more or less
    than an Adolla Burst.
[10:54] ---
    The Evangelist is seeking
    to obtain Adolla Bursts.
[10:57] ---
    An Adolla Burst is a flame of high purity,
[11:01] ---
    but how it differs from a common flame
    cannot be scientifically explained.
[11:05] ---
    Could the Evangelist have discovered
    what the difference is?
[11:11] ---
    The Evangelist will be coming for Kusakabe.
[11:14] ---
    Shouldn't we keep him secured?
[11:16] ---
    Secured?! Please, sir, anything but that!
[11:19] ---
    Fire Soldiers are here to protect people!
[11:22] ---
    I can keep myself safe!
[11:24] ---
    The other companies ought not
    interfere with the 8th's matters.
[11:28] ---
    Each company should be devoting
    themselves to pursuing the Evangelist.
[11:35] ---
    The 3rd wants to make Shinra their specimen.
[11:39] ---
    The 8th accepts the responsibility
    to keep Kusakabe safe and secure.
[11:48] ---
    An Adolla Burst is a sacred flame of
    God's chosen. Take good care of it.
[11:55] ---
    Yes, Your Excellency!
[11:59] ---
    Goodness.
[12:02] ---
    We're back.
[12:03] ---
    We've returned.
[12:04] ---
    Welcome home. I'll make some tea.
[12:07] ---
    Wearing these funny clothes is exhausting.
[12:11] ---
    Um, sir? Wasn't Shinra-san with you, too?
[12:14] ---
    Yeah. Shinra said he wanted
    to see Amaterasu on his own.
[12:19] ---
    And, if we have to mobilize,
    I'll cover for him somehow.
[12:23] ---
    Plus, Tamaki and Arthur are here.
[12:27] ---
    Hmph, the guy's making work for me.
[12:36] ---
    If the Evangelist is going to
    come seeking me out,
[12:40] ---
    that works for me just fine.
[12:43] ---
    Long time no see, Devil's Footprints.
[13:01] ---
    You!
[13:02] ---
    An Adolla Burst. One of those
    is a primordial flame,
[13:05] ---
    which serves as the power
    source for Amaterasu.
[13:08] ---
    The sacred flame that created this world.
[13:11] ---
    But then, that flame is also
    the cause of the world's downfall.
[13:18] ---
    Whoa! I'm not in the mood
    for fisticuffs right now.
[13:22] ---
    But if you insist,
    I'd be willing to take you on.
[13:27] ---
    You don't actually think
    you can get a lick in, do you?
[13:38] ---
    I came to tell you something
    you'll want to hear today.
[13:43] ---
    A reward for the devil who certainly
    has gotten closer to the truth.
[13:49] ---
    You've just about stumbled upon the
    location of your brother, haven't you?
[13:54] ---
    What are you trying to say?
[13:55] ---
    Keep on pursuing the Evangelist.
    That's where you'll find your brother.
[14:01] ---
    Commander of the Knights of the
    Ashen Flame, in service to the Evangelist,
[14:05] ---
    Sho Kusakabe. Your brother.
[14:10] ---
    Sho serves under the Evangelist...
    as a commander... of an order of knights?
[14:22] ---
    What do you mean?!
[14:24] ---
    Joker!
[14:26] ---
    Hell is a perfect fit for a devil.
[14:39] ---
    Mom... Sho... I'm sorry.
    I couldn't keep my promise.
[14:46] ---
    Mom... Sho...
[14:51] ---
    Mom...
[14:54] ---
    But I will keep another promise.
[14:58] ---
    If what he says is really true,
[15:02] ---
    I'm going to have to fight with my brother.
[15:06] ---
    I'm going to become a superhero
    and protect Mom and Sho!
[15:11] ---
    The promise I made to Mom is a promise
    that will keep Mom and Sho and me...
[15:17] ---
    ...will keep our family bound together!
[15:21] ---
    No matter what, I will keep that promise!
[15:24] ---
    "Episode 10:
    The Promise"
[15:38] ---
    "Arthur" "Shinra" "Obi" "Hinawa"
[15:46] ---
    The Special Fire Force
    is going after the Evangelist.
[15:49] ---
    Let's start by looking for clues in the data
    from all the fires that have happened so far.
[15:55] ---
    This is just a fraction of it all.
[15:58] ---
    Find any detail that may relate to
    the White-Clad, no matter how minute.
[16:02] ---
    The Evangelist and the White-Clad
[16:04] ---
    are artificially causing human
    combustion for some purpose.
[16:08] ---
    We cannot allow a single one
    of them to get away with it.
[16:13] ---
    I'll leave you to it.
[16:39] ---
    Hey, Shinra, hurry up and find a lead.
[16:43] ---
    All this mental heavy lifting
    is making you pale.
[16:47] ---
    So keep it up until it kills you.
[17:00] ---
    Like watching a candle in the wind. Good.
[17:04] ---
    Let's take a little break.
[17:06] ---
    Huh? But Arthur is on the verge
    of dying. Let's keep going!
[17:13] ---
    The sister should be getting back
    from consoling the next of kin.
[17:17] ---
    How about the women go
    cook something for us to eat?
[17:20] ---
    I'll do it!
[17:21] ---
    Is that okay, Lieutenant?
[17:23] ---
    You guys? I have my misgivings...
[17:26] ---
    Jeez, how rude. It'll be fine.
[17:30] ---
    Maki-san's cooking!
[17:34] ---
    What is this...?
[17:38] ---
    Maki-san!
[17:40] ---
    Hey! Kusakabe, no peeking!
[17:43] ---
    How in the blue blazes
    did you end up like that?
[17:46] ---
    You were wearing coveralls just a second ago!
[17:48] ---
    That kind of conventional thinking
    doesn't apply to Tamaki.
[17:52] ---
    Ugh... Maki, go get Tamaki changed
    and get back to work.
[17:58] ---
    I'll make supper.
[18:03] ---
    Shinra, you're helping.
[18:05] ---
    Huh? O-Okay...
[18:29] ---
    You okay?
[18:30] ---
    Huh?
[18:32] ---
    If it's too hard to talk to me,
    you can always tell the captain.
[18:42] ---
    I like it here at the 8th.
[18:45] ---
    I'd like you new guys to be
    able to trust us at the 8th, too.
[18:54] ---
    Lieutenant Hinawa,
    I also love it here at the 8th.
[18:58] ---
    I do trust you and Captain Obi.
[19:03] ---
    Thank you very much.
[19:05] ---
    I see.
[19:12] ---
    The food is ready!
    Please come to the dining room!
[19:16] ---
    Yay!
[19:18] ---
    Tch.
[19:29] ---
    How does Shinra seem?
[19:32] ---
    The strain on him after the 5th and
    the 1st investigations has been tough.
[19:41] ---
    You didn't recruit any fragile members
    into the 8th, sir. He's fine.
[19:51] ---
    Awesome! You made this, Kusakabe?
[19:55] ---
    No, it was mostly the lieutenant.
[20:01] ---
    Thank you for this food!
[20:03] ---
    Thank you for this food.
[20:12] ---
    Make sure to chew before you swallow.
[20:22] ---
    Thank goodness.
    Things are the same as always.
[20:26] ---
    Things had been weird
    ever since you got back.
[20:29] ---
    I thought maybe your stomach was upset,
[20:32] ---
    but if you're eating that much,
    you must be fine.
[20:48] ---
    I know this is sudden,
    but there's something I have to say.
[20:55] ---
    The truth is...
[21:01] ---
    I told them. About meeting with Joker.
[21:06] ---
    About my brother, Sho.
[21:09] ---
    It would be fine sharing
    with my friends at the 8th.
[21:12] ---
    That's what I thought.
[21:16] ---
    I see.
[21:18] ---
    But this is coming from Joker, right?
    Can we even trust it?
[21:22] ---
    I still don't believe it, myself.
[21:25] ---
    In that case...
[21:27] ---
    Shinra...
[21:28] ---
    Do you want to believe your
    brother is still alive, or not?
[21:34] ---
    I want to believe it!
[21:37] ---
    Sure you do.
[21:44] ---
    In that case, we have no choice
    but to believe it, as well.
[21:48] ---
    It doesn't change our mission
    to go after the Evangelist,
[21:51] ---
    but we're going to form our
    strategy around the premise
[21:54] ---
    that Shinra's brother is still alive.
[21:57] ---
    Thank you very much, sir.
[22:02] ---
    A light to those who are
    lost. To burn the land,
[22:07] ---
    and turn this world to a flaming sun
    wherein God may be enshrined.
[22:15] ---
    As the Evangelist directs.
[22:19] ---
    "To be continued"
[22:19] ---
    Látom.
[22:21] ---
    
[22:22] ---
    You can toil your way through humorless days
[22:23] ---
    
[22:25] ---
    
[22:25] ---
    and curse the unwavering present,
[22:28] ---
    but words that simply hang in the air
[22:32] ---
    are not enough to save you
[22:47] ---
    We've been walking shoulder-to-shoulder
[22:51] ---
    between sights we never reach
[22:54] ---
    and pain that brings no warmth
[22:57] ---
    to make it to a faraway place
[23:01] ---
    Given the hope that you speak of
[23:04] ---
    or the ideals that you dream of
[23:08] ---
    I'll find a way to show you love,
    however cold you may be
[23:13] ---
    You can toil your way through humorless days
[23:17] ---
    and curse the unwavering present,
[23:20] ---
    but words that simply hang in the air
[23:23] ---
    are not enough to save you
[23:26] ---
    You can cry out timidly
[23:29] ---
    but that changes when the nights grow fevered
[23:32] ---
    Even if we let go of each other's hands,
[23:36] ---
    I hope we can still walk together again
[23:39] ---
    I'll refrain from saying goodbye
