**[00:13] ---**
Your call... has been... heard...
**[00:21] ---**
However... I only have...
**[00:27] ---**
If I were to give you Grace...
**[00:32] ---**
One second...
**[00:37] ---**
What can you do in a single second...?
**[00:43] ---**
Such a small sliver of Grace
would be... meaningless...
**[01:08] ---**
One second will be plenty.
**[01:23] ---**
*Everything I've had, I've lost,*
**[01:26] ---**
*but I won't let go of this remaining spark*
**[01:30] ---**
*No, I won't let it go, not ever*
**[01:34] ---**
*Though there may be no right answers*
*in my ill-defined tale,*
**[01:39] ---**
*once I'm able to step forward...*
**[01:43] ---**
*They say something's wrong with me,*
*but I'll do something with them*
**[01:49] ---**
*I'm not even sure what I'm supposed to be*
**[01:54] ---**
*But if my dreams have*
*resolved themselves to be by your side*
**[02:00] ---**
*then there's nothing left*
*for me to doubt anymore*
**[02:05] ---**
*Sparks fly as things kick off*
**[02:08] ---**
*until "black and white" turns to ashen gray*
**[02:10] ---**
*If there's a choice crown to be had*
**[02:13] ---**
*I want it, I want it*
**[02:15] ---**
*I'll whizz my way toward you*
**[02:18] ---**
*until "double or nothing" gets zeroed out*
**[02:21] ---**
*If the clowns are melancholy*
**[02:24] ---**
*then nothing will get anywhere*
**[02:27] ---**
*I'll show you a love that*
*burns hot enough to scorch ashes*
**[02:32] ---**
*I just spark again*
**[02:41] ---**
"Episode 10:
The Woman in Black"
**[02:51] ---**
Shinra, how long are you
going to leave me hanging?!
**[02:55] ---**
Hurry it up!
**[03:01] ---**
With one second...
**[03:08] ---**
What can you do in one second?
**[03:15] ---**
I can preserve this forest.
**[03:18] ---**
I get a similar whiff from you as Adolla--
as the Evangelist had.
**[03:22] ---**
Who are you, exactly?
**[03:26] ---**
I am... no different than... the rest of you.
**[03:35] ---**
You said that you came to restore this world.
**[03:39] ---**
Then what is the Evangelist's objective?
**[03:43] ---**
Her... objective... is
a terrible, arcane act.
**[03:53] ---**
To fill this land with flame,
and destroy everything.
**[04:00] ---**
All I have done...
is to create a land of rest...
**[04:07] ---**
...until the demise that is
her goal... comes upon us.
**[04:13] ---**
To destroy the earth with flames?
It's just like Rekka said.
**[04:18] ---**
Now, time is short. I
will grant you my Grace.
**[04:37] ---**
Ogun, sorry to keep you!
**[05:06] ---**
Through my Link with Grace, my body
is broken down to the particle level.
**[05:11] ---**
As I transcend the speed of light,
time runs backward.
**[05:15] ---**
My body, in particle form,
returns to the way it was in the past.
**[05:34] ---**
Are these...
**[05:37] ---**
...Tempe's memories?
**[05:41] ---**
Why am I the only one...?
**[05:44] ---**
The only one...
**[05:50] ---**
I lost all my wealth and property
in the Great Cataclysm.
**[05:55] ---**
I lost my wife and daughter at the same time.
**[05:59] ---**
So why did I alone survive?
**[06:03] ---**
I hate it! I hate the Great Cataclysm!
**[06:06] ---**
I hate the Great Cataclysm for taking
my status, my women, and my fortune!
**[06:19] ---**
I'm here.
**[06:23] ---**
This is the spatial rift.
**[06:31] ---**
It won't budge. Is there no way
for me to move beyond here?
**[06:37] ---**
Does this mean that what lies ahead
**[06:38] ---**
is not a place where humans
are permitted to enter?
**[06:56] ---**
Someone has appeared from beyond the rift!
**[06:58] ---**
A person! Wh--
**[07:01] ---**
Who-- *What*... are you?
**[07:08] ---**
A-Are you...
**[07:11] ---**
G-God? God?!
**[07:17] ---**
The Evangelist...
**[07:18] ---**
God! Are you God?! You have come
to grant me your blessing, right?
**[07:25] ---**
I've lost my position and money
in the Great Cataclysm!
**[07:28] ---**
Please grant me that kind of joy once again!
**[07:32] ---**
Please, I pray of you!
**[07:34] ---**
Please, give me salvation!
**[07:39] ---**
Salvation...!
**[07:56] ---**
I have received God's blessing!
It hurts! It burns! It is magnificent!
**[08:03] ---**
I will now become a god as well,
and proclaim the greatness of God!
**[08:09] ---**
The Evangelist came through
the spatial rift, too...
**[08:13] ---**
But this man Tempe here is beyond hope.
**[08:17] ---**
Return to the great flame of fire!
**[08:36] ---**
Wh-What?
**[08:39] ---**
Where's the demon?
**[08:40] ---**
Shinra-*kun* is gone, too.
**[08:43] ---**
Shinra took care of the demon in an instant?
**[08:47] ---**
This is the true power of an Adolla Burst?
**[08:52] ---**
I got pretty far away from the forest, huh?
**[08:56] ---**
I'd better get back to the others.
**[09:03] ---**
The Evangelist came from beyond the rift.
**[09:07] ---**
Does that mean she isn't from this world?
**[09:12] ---**
Special Fire Force, you really did
eliminate the demon in one second.
**[09:18] ---**
I heard that you came from
beyond the rift, too. I sense...
**[09:22] ---**
...the same kind of presence
about you as the Evangelist has.
**[09:25] ---**
Are you a being from Adolla as well?
**[09:28] ---**
You sense that because I have
been inside the Tabernacle,
**[09:33] ---**
being burned for a long
time by an Adolla Burst,
**[09:37] ---**
which must have intensified
the "presence" of Adolla.
**[09:41] ---**
I was originally human.
**[09:45] ---**
Just like you... and that demon, Tempe.
**[09:53] ---**
I was enkindled with an Adolla Burst
by an Evangelist's Insect,
**[09:59] ---**
and came to this world together with her.
**[10:05] ---**
You want to know about the connection
between myself and the Evangelist,
**[10:10] ---**
but I am nothing more than someone
who was brought here at her whim.
**[10:20] ---**
All I did was merely repair the Tabernacle,
**[10:26] ---**
something which was already
here 250 years ago.
**[10:32] ---**
To save the animals that were
living here from their agony,
**[10:38] ---**
I used its energy not to destroy,
but to create, and made this Oasis.
**[10:48] ---**
From ancient times,
mankind has established many religions,
**[10:53] ---**
envisioning different images of
Heaven and Hell, God and the Devil.
**[11:02] ---**
Though they grow up in different lands,
and speak different languages,
**[11:08] ---**
for some reason, the religions of
mankind all share gods and devils.
**[11:18] ---**
If the various religions of this world...
**[11:23] ---**
are based on visions of Adolla
that she has shown others...
**[11:30] ---**
...then perhaps from
mind-bogglingly ancient times,
**[11:34] ---**
the Evangelist has been at work,
**[11:37] ---**
manipulating the thoughts of mankind
**[11:41] ---**
from behind the scenes of history.
**[11:46] ---**
One might say that the god
that all mankind has imagined...
**[11:53] ---**
...is something that she conjured up.
**[12:02] ---**
You are trying to go up against...
the being who created... your God.
**[12:15] ---**
God, huh? It is a Fire Soldier's
duty to stop anyone
**[12:19] ---**
who is trying to bring calamity
to this world, no matter who they are.
**[12:26] ---**
It is because of that duty...
**[12:30] ---**
...that this forest... has been saved.
**[12:41] ---**
Thank you... very much.
**[13:01] ---**
We heard an incredible explosion.
**[13:03] ---**
Ogun, is everyone all right?
**[13:06] ---**
Lieutenant Pan...
**[13:08] ---**
We're all done out here.
Shinra just put the demon to rest, too.
**[13:12] ---**
Hey!
**[13:13] ---**
Shinra is coming back.
**[13:17] ---**
Lieutenant Pan,
**[13:19] ---**
how was the inside of the Tabernacle?
Are you done investigating?
**[13:22] ---**
We hit the mother lode!
**[13:34] ---**
I don't hear her voice.
**[13:38] ---**
She must have gone to sleep.
**[13:43] ---**
I am most grateful for your help
in putting the demon to rest.
**[13:49] ---**
What we learned during this investigation
is a big leap forward for us.
**[13:55] ---**
If Amaterasu in Tokyo is set up
the same way as the Tabernacle here,
**[13:59] ---**
it will also have a human power source.
**[14:02] ---**
You're eating this up, huh?
**[14:03] ---**
Er... and if Amaterasu's power source
is a person with an Adolla Burst,
**[14:08] ---**
then the eight pillars would be...
**[14:10] ---**
...sacrifices.
**[14:11] ---**
If they're sacrifices,
then the word "pillar" fits right in.
**[14:17] ---**
That girl who Linked with me,
who we believe to be the First Pillar--
**[14:21] ---**
If there is a person inside Amaterasu,
then she might very well be a sacrifice.
**[14:29] ---**
And that intense feeling
of hatred I felt from her?
**[14:33] ---**
She might resent humanity
for making her live as a sacrifice.
**[14:37] ---**
So unlike the "Woman in Black"
inside the Tabernacle,
**[14:41] ---**
maybe she didn't choose to go inside,
but was exploited instead.
**[14:46] ---**
It sounds like the Holy Sol Temple
and Haijima, who built Amaterasu,
**[14:50] ---**
might be hiding something, all right.
**[14:51] ---**
"Haijima Industries"
**[14:53] ---**
Those eight arrows that were at the core--
**[14:56] ---**
they may be some kind of keys.
**[15:00] ---**
The memory stick that
Dr. Giovanni stole from Vulcan--
**[15:04] ---**
that might also have data on it
regarding the "key" to Amaterasu,
**[15:08] ---**
similar to those arrows.
**[15:10] ---**
But this series of numbers is
something I have no idea about.
**[15:15] ---**
Arthur-*kun* said they were pi.
**[15:19] ---**
But until we get back to Tokyo
and compare them, I can't tell for sure.
**[15:23] ---**
If that *is* what they are, we don't
even know if the two are related.
**[15:27] ---**
Whatever the case,
**[15:29] ---**
we can be sure that things are going
the way the Evangelist wants them to.
**[15:33] ---**
Making sacrifices of the Eight Adolla Bursts,
**[15:36] ---**
and using Amaterasu to
kick start a Great Cataclysm.
**[15:42] ---**
We're starting to see now
what the Evangelist's goal is.
**[15:44] ---**
But I have no intention of letting her
wrap us around her finger anymore.
**[15:49] ---**
"God," my eye!
**[15:50] ---**
I'll stop her, no matter what!
**[16:23] ---**
You're leaving already?
**[16:25] ---**
You've come all this way.
Why not stay a little longer?
**[16:28] ---**
Heroes are busy people.
**[16:31] ---**
Heroes, huh? You're amazing, Shinra.
**[16:36] ---**
I'm just a weakling, who always
has to have others help him.
**[16:40] ---**
I can't do anything on my own.
I'm just a coward who can't fight.
**[16:48] ---**
What's too much for you is
too much for you. What can you do?
**[16:51] ---**
But you are not a coward.
**[16:54] ---**
Stubbornly taking too much upon yourself,
**[16:56] ---**
until it breaks you, just
makes you miserable.
**[16:59] ---**
You wanted to preserve this forest, right?
**[17:04] ---**
Where's the harm in
turning to others to achieve that?
**[17:07] ---**
Acknowledging your weaknesses
**[17:09] ---**
and asking for help from others
takes its own kind of courage.
**[17:12] ---**
If things ever get dicey again, just call me.
**[17:19] ---**
That's what heroes are for, after all.
**[17:30] ---**
I'm going to train by digging
a thousand holes every day!
**[17:34] ---**
And if that's still not enough,
then I'll call for help, okay?!
**[17:37] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[17:39] ---**
See you later!
**[17:45] ---**
Hell yeah!
**[17:48] ---**
Seriously, why aren't you wearing your masks?
**[17:52] ---**
"Mission"
**[17:53] ---**
"Complete"
**[18:06] ---**
The First Pillar?
**[18:09] ---**
Are you inside Amaterasu?
**[18:12] ---**
No...
**[18:15] ---**
...*are* you Amaterasu?
**[18:20] ---**
Shinra!
**[18:24] ---**
We're in Tokyo. Get ready.
**[18:26] ---**
Y-Yes, sir.
**[18:30] ---**
That girl appeared in my dreams again.
**[18:38] ---**
Were your father and mother relieved?
**[18:41] ---**
Mm-hmm. I told them about
Scop and the others.
**[18:44] ---**
They reclaimed the Oasis,
**[18:46] ---**
so the whole reason fer them to ransack
our potato fields is all settled up now.
**[18:49] ---**
Everything's hunky-dory.
**[18:50] ---**
If they're so hard up, we coulda
afforded 'em some potatoes, at least.
**[18:56] ---**
I'm glad you got to see your parents.
**[18:58] ---**
Mm-hmm, and the potatoes
were doing well, too.
**[19:00] ---**
I wanted more adventure.
**[19:02] ---**
That gas was fun, huh?
**[19:07] ---**
That girl I saw in my dream--
**[19:10] ---**
As the water she was in was evaporating...
**[19:13] ---**
...it looked like she was crying.
**[19:18] ---**
Amaterasu-- Who exactly is she, anyway?
**[19:23] ---**
If there really is someone inside Amaterasu,
**[19:27] ---**
it introduces a contradiction in the
dogma and scripture of the Holy Sol Temple,
**[19:31] ---**
which have been guiding the Tokyo Empire.
**[19:35] ---**
Remember the words of the Prologue.
**[19:37] ---**
"A long time ago, mankind was
touched by the planet's anger..."
**[19:43] ---**
"Prologue: The Great Cataclysm"
**[19:46] ---**
A long time ago, mankind was
touched by the planet's anger,
**[19:50] ---**
and the world was engulfed in flames.
**[19:53] ---**
It was the Day of the Cataclysm.
**[19:56] ---**
The flames burned ferociously,
**[19:59] ---**
with an intensity threatening to
incinerate the places mankind lived in,
**[20:02] ---**
the languages they spoke,
and the culture they had built up.
**[20:05] ---**
"Chapter One: Holy Fire"
**[20:08] ---**
As the world was being covered in ash,
one man appeared.
**[20:14] ---**
He would later be called Raffles I.
**[20:18] ---**
Raffles took his disciples and
left on a journey in search of light.
**[20:23] ---**
At the end of his journey,
he found an "unsullied flame,"
**[20:27] ---**
and brought forth the light that
would be mankind's salvation.
**[20:31] ---**
"Chapter Two: Amaterasu"
**[20:36] ---**
Raffles and his disciples used the flame
bestowed by the great Sol
**[20:41] ---**
and the technology cultivated
by mankind to create "Amaterasu."
**[20:46] ---**
The sacred flame of Amaterasu
benefitted the lives of mankind,
**[20:50] ---**
and ended up establishing the foundation
of a state in the Far East.
**[20:58] ---**
"Noto Farms Potatoes"
**[21:11] ---**
See you later!
**[21:35] ---**
Today's Amaterasu operational rate is normal.
**[21:44] ---**
Amaterasu is the reason why
this country developed. But...
**[21:50] ---**
...if Adolla Bursts are actually something
**[21:53] ---**
that the Evangelist bestowed upon mankind...
**[21:57] ---**
If the Evangelist was the one
who developed this country,
**[22:01] ---**
why is she trying to destroy it now?
**[22:05] ---**
You can't help but wonder if the Holy Sol Temple
is hiding something, can you?
**[22:13] ---**
Let's head in and report to Captain Obi.
**[22:24] ---**
