**[00:04] ---**
It's stretched out all over!
**[00:11] ---**
If the White-Clad are here,
**[00:13] ---**
then their objective is probably
to secure the Adolla Burst.
**[00:17] ---**
If so, then is the best course of action
to team up with Haijima,
**[00:20] ---**
and get out of this three-way battle situation?
**[00:25] ---**
I'll punish you on Sol's behalf!
**[00:49] ---**
Oh? That didn't work?
**[00:51] ---**
What, you mean it's insulated?
**[00:56] ---**
Haumea, get back.
**[00:58] ---**
Tch, you keep out of this!
**[01:10] ---**
This... is too much.
**[01:13] ---**
If I don't maintain some space,
she has the upper hand.
**[01:16] ---**
But she's matching me
step for step; I can't shake her!
**[01:19] ---**
Not only am I not outdistancing her,
she's overtaking--
**[01:24] ---**
What are you doing, Arrow?!
You are seriously pathetic!
**[01:32] ---**
--Sorry.
--And you call yourself a protector?
**[01:35] ---**
Usually, the pillar-protector buddy system
goes Commander Sho and me,
**[01:39] ---**
and Charon and you, Haumea.
**[01:41] ---**
We were paired up on the premise
that we were good matches for each other,
**[01:45] ---**
and breaking that up is why we are out of sync--
**[01:52] ---**
I'll give you a full-body vibrating massage,
so let's be friends!
**[01:59] ---**
It looks like electricity is
coursing through her whole body.
**[02:03] ---**
If we get close to them, we'll get shocked.
**[02:07] ---**
I don't want to hear any of your excuses, Arrow.
**[02:11] ---**
Protect me right, or I'll kill you.
**[02:15] ---**
How nice!
**[02:16] ---**
My generator is getting all warmed up.
It's going to be worth punishing you!
**[02:22] ---**
Charon will be capturing
the Sixth Pillar any minute.
**[02:25] ---**
Arrow, stop standing there looking moody.
**[02:29] ---**
Let's go nuts on them!
**[02:32] ---**
If that plasma lady uses
her toxic EM waves, it's all over!
**[02:36] ---**
The plasma density in this whole area
is rising. I have to hurry!
**[02:40] ---**
Arthur! Where are you?!
**[02:43] ---**
WALK!
**[02:47] ---**
SNAP!
**[02:51] ---**
Where's Nataku?!
**[02:53] ---**
--Let me go!
--Stop squirming!
**[02:57] ---**
That's right, the kid's over there.
You bad guys fight over him!
**[03:01] ---**
You're coming *here*?!
**[03:05] ---**
Out of my way.
**[03:07] ---**
Let me take care of those
weak-looking ones first.
**[03:10] ---**
Don't you care about Nataku?!
**[03:13] ---**
I already told you, where possible,
I like to fight the weak.
**[03:23] ---**
CLAP!
**[03:26] ---**
This is a hell of a situation! Shinra!
**[03:29] ---**
Get Nataku!
**[03:30] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[03:31] ---**
Let's get going.
**[03:32] ---**
You aren't getting away!
**[03:37] ---**
What do we do? Should we get in there, too?
**[03:40] ---**
No, just wait, Ritsu.
Someone will die before long.
**[03:44] ---**
You won't lack for raw materials.
**[03:47] ---**
Thanks to your power, Miss Inca,
I can use my ability all I like.
**[03:54] ---**
Danger, danger, danger will
get you killed. Show them, Ritsu...
**[04:02] ---**
...the spell that lets you toy with people.
**[05:37] ---**
"Episode 16:
Mind Blown"
**[05:45] ---**
Damn...
**[05:51] ---**
You are quite the pain-in-the-ass opponent.
**[05:55] ---**
--Aren't there any other,
more reasonable opponents?
**[05:57] ---**
--Let me go! Let me go!
--Aren't there any other,
more reasonable opponents?
**[06:03] ---**
What is this black smoke?
**[06:05] ---**
"Soul Eclipse"
**[06:09] ---**
--I feel hot all over...!
--Wah! Too hot! Too hot!
**[06:17] ---**
Burn from the inside out
with my superheated soot.
**[06:24] ---**
Nice weakness.
**[06:35] ---**
Secured!
**[06:37] ---**
You have nothing to worry about now, Nataku-*kun*!
**[06:38] ---**
"S--"
**[06:39] ---**
"Snatch!"
**[06:40] ---**
Sixth Pillar, you are not to leave me.
**[06:46] ---**
That's an educational bear.
The boy belongs to Haijima.
**[06:51] ---**
A bear?!
**[06:53] ---**
--Got him!
--Got him!
**[06:54] ---**
Don't get in the way, Arthur! I've got him!
**[06:57] ---**
Shut up, Devil! You're gonna scare the kid!
**[07:04] ---**
Rebound!
**[07:10] ---**
That's a foul!
**[07:11] ---**
Come on! Hey, hey!
**[07:16] ---**
--Press him! Like we did in practice!
--Mm-hmm, this is perfectly good raw material.
**[07:18] ---**
--We just need to get one sure basket!
--Mm-hmm, this is perfectly good raw material.
**[07:21] ---**
Now I just need an Infernal for the base.
**[07:27] ---**
There's the perfect person for the job.
**[07:32] ---**
I'm going to make you bigger.
**[07:37] ---**
An Infernal?!
**[07:43] ---**
Necro Pyro.
**[07:50] ---**
"Necro Pyro"
**[07:53] ---**
She's raising those bodies?!
**[07:54] ---**
That is one nasty power.
**[08:04] ---**
The corpses are attacking the Infernal!
**[08:06] ---**
Oh, God!
**[08:12] ---**
Come, come, great flaming one.
**[08:25] ---**
I-It's a...
**[08:27] ---**
...giant Infernal!
**[08:30] ---**
That Infernal that appeared back in Ueno--
**[08:34] ---**
that was due to this woman's ability?
**[08:36] ---**
She's making playthings
of those people's bodies!
**[08:39] ---**
This one has a fighter as its base,
**[08:41] ---**
so it's a lot stronger than
that earlier, misbegotten one.
**[08:50] ---**
Yes, Kurono.
**[08:53] ---**
Mr. President!
**[08:54] ---**
Yes, sir. Yes, sir. I was
focusing on the weaker ones...
**[09:00] ---**
Idiot? Me? Yes, sir.
**[09:05] ---**
The boy with the Adolla Burst has been
incorporated into a giant Infernal--
**[09:10] ---**
Well, yes, sir. Which is why
I was giving priority to the weaker--
**[09:15] ---**
Sir? Idiot? Do you mean me, sir?
**[09:19] ---**
Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
**[09:22] ---**
Understood. Goodbye, sir.
**[09:32] ---**
Honestly, being a salaryman is rough.
**[09:43] ---**
This is no time for
the two of us to be quarreling.
**[09:46] ---**
Let's get Nataku back.
**[09:49] ---**
I'll help you.
**[10:03] ---**
Hey, Arrow, you keep that
corporal-punishment biddy occupied.
**[10:06] ---**
I have business with the Sixth Pillar.
**[10:10] ---**
And if you mess up this time,
I will kill you for reals, understand?
**[10:14] ---**
I understand.
**[10:18] ---**
No running off without permission!
**[10:23] ---**
You really are a pesky girl!
**[10:28] ---**
*That's* him? What a lame face he has.
**[10:31] ---**
I'll give you a hand,
so let's get you even higher!
**[10:42] ---**
That's right. Children are supposed to imagine.
**[10:46] ---**
They imagine whatever they dream.
**[10:49] ---**
Take fire! You're incredible! Try hard!
**[10:54] ---**
My mental imagery... My imagination...
**[11:02] ---**
My imagination... is infected...
**[11:08] ---**
The madman inside me is stoking me up.
**[11:14] ---**
My stars!
**[11:16] ---**
My hopes are up,
**[11:18] ---**
while my feelings are down.
**[11:21] ---**
The madman is stoking me from the bottom upward.
**[11:26] ---**
Upward, upward...
together with the thick smoke...
**[11:31] ---**
...heading toward my hopes...
**[11:34] ---**
--My hopes are up...
--That's it! That's it! That's so it!
**[11:38] ---**
--Is that true, though?
--Keep going higher! I know you can do it!
**[11:40] ---**
--The smoke I'm heading into
makes it so hard to breathe.
--Keep going higher! I know you can do it!
**[11:42] ---**
--The smoke I'm heading into
makes it so hard to breathe.
--Just keep it up!
**[11:44] ---**
--My hopes are up...
--That's it! That's it! That's so it!
**[11:46] ---**
--...while my feelings are down...
--That's it! That's it! That's so it!
**[11:47] ---**
--...while my feelings are down...
--Keep going higher! I know you can do it!
**[11:49] ---**
--I'm about to suffocate...
--Keep going higher! I know you can do it!
**[11:50] ---**
--I'm about to suffocate...
--Keep doing what you're doing! Keep at it!
**[11:51] ---**
--Keep doing what you're doing! Keep at it!
**[11:51] ---**
--I'm about to suffocate...
--Keep doing what you're doing! Keep at it!
**[11:53] ---**
--I'll be waiting for you!
**[11:54] ---**
--I'm really about to suffocate...
--I'll be waiting for you!
**[12:01] ---**
I'm going to suffocate...
**[12:04] ---**
...on my infected imagination...
**[12:16] ---**
You all can suffocate together with my hopes!
**[12:24] ---**
What's suddenly come over him?
Has he lost his mind?
**[12:29] ---**
Haumea, you did something, didn't you?
**[12:36] ---**
"Motor Head."
**[12:37] ---**
I goosed the amount of dopamine
and beta-endorphins his brain produces
**[12:41] ---**
to provoke a little pressure and excitement.
**[12:44] ---**
He's already predisposed to it.
This won't break anything.
**[12:49] ---**
The "Infected Imagination" he has
**[12:51] ---**
is a manifestation of
the pressure he's always felt.
**[12:54] ---**
All of you, suffocate!
**[13:00] ---**
"Infected Imagination"
**[13:17] ---**
Hey, man, are you kidding me?!
**[13:20] ---**
Captain, this is bad!
Get away from there, right now!
**[13:24] ---**
Is that you, Vulcan?! What's wrong?!
**[13:27] ---**
Radiation readings are climbing above baseline.
**[13:29] ---**
Those of you who are unpowered should evacuate!
**[13:32] ---**
Sister, Licht, you're with me!
**[13:34] ---**
That shock lady has gone and done something!
**[13:37] ---**
We need Arthur to counter her!
**[13:38] ---**
As soon as I pick up Arthur, I'm heading to you!
**[13:41] ---**
Arthur! Arthur, where are you?!
**[13:45] ---**
High-ho Silver!
**[13:47] ---**
Fine, I'm Silver. We need your help!
**[13:53] ---**
How far away should we be
from the radiation source?
**[13:56] ---**
Unpowered people should still be all right
if they keep 200 meters away.
**[14:01] ---**
But the pyrokinetics who are fighting
in all that are in incredible danger.
**[14:11] ---**
The source of the radiation
is a third generation's ability.
**[14:15] ---**
Those of us who are pyrokinetics
should still be okay.
**[14:19] ---**
But even so, if the radiation keeps
getting stronger, we'll be in danger!
**[14:23] ---**
Ritsu, what happened to your giant?
**[14:26] ---**
Miss Inca, it's too dangerous
for you to come down here.
**[14:30] ---**
There's no way it can hit me.
**[14:33] ---**
Haumea tampered with the Sixth Pillar's brain.
**[14:36] ---**
Those heat rays appear to be radioactive.
**[14:39] ---**
Radiation? That's bad news.
**[14:42] ---**
So Miss Inca, you should--
**[14:43] ---**
Oh, you'll die if you stay there.
**[14:45] ---**
Huh? Really?
**[14:50] ---**
--How are we supposed to
retrieve the Sixth Pillar like this?
**[14:53] ---**
--Holy cow!
--How are we supposed to
retrieve the Sixth Pillar like this?
**[14:55] ---**
That was fantastic, Haumea-*chan*!
**[14:57] ---**
Damn that Haumea,
wreaking havoc unnecessarily...
**[15:01] ---**
That giant Infernal is suddenly
tearing the place up.
**[15:06] ---**
Kurono, we have to stop Nataku!
**[15:09] ---**
I don't see any other way. We'll kill him.
**[15:12] ---**
You'd kill a pyrokinetic
that's vital to Haijima?!
**[15:15] ---**
--You call yourself a Haijima employee?!
--Who're you, my boss?
**[15:17] ---**
Stop thinking only about hurting others,
and start thinking about your job!
**[15:21] ---**
Who're you, my boss?
**[15:22] ---**
We'll destroy the giant parts,
and pluck Nataku out of there.
**[15:25] ---**
Let's go!
**[15:31] ---**
It's hard!
**[15:40] ---**
Kurono! I'll draw the lasers away
and create a window for you!
**[15:44] ---**
You go and--
**[15:53] ---**
That's strong.
**[15:57] ---**
It's gotten *too* strong.
**[16:03] ---**
Time for a new job.
**[16:06] ---**
--Seriously, why does it have to be so strong?
**[16:07] ---**
--Hey! What are you waiting for?!
I thought you were going to help!
--Seriously, why does it have to be so strong?
**[16:10] ---**
--Hey! What are you waiting for?!
I thought you were going to help!
--Weaker is so much better.
**[16:14] ---**
Oh, crap!
**[16:27] ---**
Charon!
**[16:28] ---**
It's my calling to protect the Pillars!
**[16:32] ---**
So I'll protect you.
**[16:40] ---**
I'll cover you.
**[16:42] ---**
You use your speed to get close
and pull the Sixth Pillar out of there!
**[16:45] ---**
I don't need *you* protecting me to do that!
**[16:48] ---**
Men are still little boys at heart,
**[16:52] ---**
so why do they insist on
getting stronger for no reason?
**[16:56] ---**
You're incredible! You have
incredible power! Let them have it!
**[17:00] ---**
You can do it, you can do it!
You can do it if you try!
**[17:06] ---**
We're still all right now,
**[17:08] ---**
but if the radioactive
concentration keeps rising,
**[17:10] ---**
we really will be in trouble.
**[17:13] ---**
Damn, there isn't a second to spare!
**[17:16] ---**
I have to hurry and get Arthur there!
**[17:19] ---**
What are you having me do, and where?
**[17:20] ---**
I need to you become a legendary knight.
**[17:25] ---**
What did you say? A legendary knight?!
**[17:30] ---**
--A knight, you say? Legendary, you say?
**[17:33] ---**
--Take it easy!
--A knight, you say? Legendary, you say?
**[17:34] ---**
--Watch it! Don't thrash around!
--Where, Vulcan?! Where are we going?!
**[17:37] ---**
There's a place where you can
become a legendary knight!
**[17:40] ---**
Where is it?! Hurry up and take me there!
**[17:47] ---**
Yeah! Very knightly!
**[17:49] ---**
This is the top of the Matchbox.
**[17:52] ---**
You're not trying to trick me again,
like that time with Sil-burro, right?
**[18:01] ---**
You make it sound so scandalous. Just trust me!
**[18:06] ---**
Can you see the hole in the middle of the hatch?
**[18:09] ---**
Yeah, right there.
**[18:11] ---**
You're going to stick your
Excalibur into that hole.
**[18:15] ---**
You've heard the tale of the legendary knight
**[18:18] ---**
who inserts his legendary sword
into something, right?
**[18:28] ---**
The tale of the sword-inserting
legendary knight?!
**[18:32] ---**
Beneath that hole is a machine
**[18:34] ---**
that will take the plasma emitted
by Arthur's Excalibur and amplify it.
**[18:38] ---**
If that amplified plasma
can disrupt the shock lady,
**[18:43] ---**
we should have a pseudo-pulse attack
that will shut out her EM waves.
**[18:49] ---**
Hold on! You have it backwards!
**[18:50] ---**
The legendary knight pulls
his sword *out* of something!
**[18:52] ---**
Tch, he knows too much about this.
**[18:56] ---**
So all you have to do is stick it in first,
**[18:58] ---**
and then pull it out!
**[19:00] ---**
Huh? Vulcan, what are you
talking about? Are you dense?
**[19:04] ---**
*You're* the one who's dense!
You're carrying a legendary sword right now!
**[19:08] ---**
But you aren't *pulling* your sword
out of anything!
**[19:11] ---**
In other words, once you stick
your sword *in*, then you can pull it out!
**[19:15] ---**
Are you going to let this chance
get away from you?!
**[19:18] ---**
Oh, right... S-So what you mean is...
**[19:24] ---**
...this trinket I've been carrying around
**[19:26] ---**
turns out to actually be a legendary weapon?
**[19:29] ---**
Yeah, that's it!
**[19:32] ---**
Trinket? Just what kind of status
does Excalibur have in Arthur's mind?
**[19:37] ---**
Arthur's mindset is so squishy,
it's hard to get a handle on it.
**[19:41] ---**
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm!
**[19:44] ---**
And I'll be a legendary knight?
**[19:45] ---**
--Yes!
--I get it!
**[19:47] ---**
I understand!
**[19:48] ---**
Thank goodness you're so dumb!
**[19:54] ---**
"Electromagnetic Pulse"
**[19:55] ---**
Electromagnetic Pulse!
**[19:59] ---**
"Amplification"
**[20:00] ---**
Amplification!
**[20:10] ---**
Those bastards! I'll bet it's that plasma user.
**[20:14] ---**
Vulcan and Arthur have done it!
**[20:16] ---**
This is the interference wave you mentioned?
**[20:19] ---**
Arrow! My toxic EM waves have been blocked!
**[20:24] ---**
We're gonna clobber the guy jamming me
and get that kid to rampage again!
**[20:28] ---**
I actually think it's better
if she remains blocked.
**[20:35] ---**
Oh, no you don't!
**[20:37] ---**
But I can't activate the Tekkyo
because of that EM pulse.
**[20:43] ---**
I understand the situation. We just
need to stop that naughty girl, right?
**[20:48] ---**
Your puppet can still move?
**[20:50] ---**
My Dominions run on flame, not electricity.
**[20:57] ---**
There he is!
**[21:03] ---**
Stay out of this!
**[21:05] ---**
We've been made!
**[21:06] ---**
Vulcan, I can pull it out now, right?
**[21:08] ---**
Not yet! The sword you're holding
is a legendary sword!
**[21:11] ---**
They don't come out that easily!
**[21:13] ---**
Oh, okay. By the way, Vulcan,
**[21:17] ---**
why does the stone with the sacred
sword in it have a driver's seat?
**[21:23] ---**
What is this?! The stone shouldn't
start moving, should it?!
**[21:27] ---**
EMP intensity declining.
**[21:29] ---**
Damn, Arthur's make-believe
knighthood is starting to fade!
**[21:37] ---**
Arthur! It turns out the stone
the sword is stuck in
**[21:40] ---**
is actually the back of a big snake!
Don't get shaken off!
**[21:43] ---**
A giant serpent?!
**[21:45] ---**
That's right! Look closely! Extreme technique:
**[21:48] ---**
Sidewinder!
**[21:50] ---**
"Sidewinder"
**[21:55] ---**
It sounded like something just whizzed by us.
**[21:58] ---**
I missed.
**[22:01] ---**
Why, you giant serpent!
**[22:03] ---**
You think that you can shake off
the Knight King Arthur,
**[22:06] ---**
but you shall not!
**[22:08] ---**
The legendary sacred sword will remain in place!
**[22:11] ---**
Radioactive concentration still climbing.
**[22:14] ---**
Shinra...
**[22:16] ---**
...do something now, while there's still time!

placed in the greatest peril!
