[00:00] ---
    This is the photo from
    our nude calendar from earlier.
[00:03] ---
    What a provocative expression.
    Way to go, Shinra!
[00:07] ---
    Give me a break, sir.
[00:09] ---
    I'm just smiling out of anxiety
    from having a camera pointed at me.
[00:12] ---
    Well, down to business.
[00:14] ---
    You're going to get your sit-down
    with Captain Hague of the 4th.
[00:18] ---
    If what you say is true,
[00:20] ---
    he could be a lead on
    the identity of the Evangelist,
[00:22] ---
    and to unraveling the
    mystery of Adolla Bursts.
[00:25] ---
    Do you mean it, sir?
[00:27] ---
    It's unusual for a Second Class Fire Soldier
    to have a personal meeting
[00:29] ---
    with the captain of another company,
[00:31] ---
    but then, you also have
    the support of Lieutenant Asako.
[00:34] ---
    The lieutenant says she will accompany you
    to your meeting tomorrow.
[00:38] ---
    Shinra, do you know about the 4th?
[00:40] ---
    Of course I do, sir. The 4th oversaw
    the academy I attended.
[00:47] ---
    But why does only the 4th
    have a training academy?
[00:50] ---
    The Fire Defense Agency is directly
    over the 4th and regular Fire Fighters.
SIGN    "Fire Defense Agency"
SIGN    "Special Fire Force Company 4"
SIGN     "Fire Fighters"
[00:53] ---
    The academy is under the Fire Defense Agency,
    and managed by the 4th.
SIGN    "Academy"
[00:59] ---
    Just as you say you saw Captain Hague
    during your Adolla Link,
[01:03] ---
    Captain Hague may be interested in
    your Adolla Burst.
[01:08] ---
    Whatever his reasons,
    your meeting with him works in our favor.
[01:12] ---
    I'm counting on you, Shinra.
[01:17] ---
    The Adolla Burst boy...
[02:51] ---
    "Episode 2:
    Flames of Madness"
[02:54] ---
    "Special Fire Station 4:
    Special Fire Soldier Training Academy"
[02:56] ---
    This sure takes me back.
[03:01] ---
    Begging your pardon.
[03:02] ---
    Forgive us for interrupting your training.
[03:05] ---
    Instructor Pan!
[03:06] ---
    "Special Fire Force Company 4"
    "Special Fire Soldier
    Training Academy Instructor" "Purt Co Pan"
[03:08] ---
    It's been a while, Kusakabe.
[03:10] ---
    Pardon me, it's Lieutenant Pan here.
[03:14] ---
    What are you doing here, Kusakabe?
[03:15] ---
    I'll bet that toilet of the 8th
    flushed you away.
[03:18] ---
    Karin, a toilet bug like you stayed here
    without getting flushed?
[03:22] ---
    Huh? What did you say, mother-killer?!
[03:27] ---
    Don't they teach you here at the 4th
[03:30] ---
    that if you grab someone carelessly,
    you get joint-locked and thrown?
[03:33] ---
    Everyone at the 8th knows that.
[03:35] ---
    --What the hell do you think you're doing?!
    --Hey, don't you insult us!
[03:38] ---
    Just be grateful I didn't break it, you wuss.
[03:40] ---
    Take it easy. Remember,
    you're the one who started it.
[03:45] ---
    Kusakabe, you never change, do you?
[03:47] ---
    Ogun!
[03:48] ---
    I just had my guard down, that's all.
[03:50] ---
    Sounds like something you'd say, Karin.
[04:00] ---
    I'm sorry.
[04:02] ---
    You have to actually say that in words
    for people to understand you.
[04:06] ---
    The instructor's whistling is still the same.
[04:08] ---
    It looks like you know a lot of people here.
[04:13] ---
    This is Ogun. He was the head of our class.
[04:16] ---
    He didn't have any friends,
    so Arthur and I palled around with him.
[04:20] ---
    Arthur is no friend of mine, you know.
[04:23] ---
    Yeah, yeah.
[04:24] ---
    I hear you're doing well over at the 8th.
[04:26] ---
    As are you.
[04:33] ---
    Lieutenant Pan says he's going to
    show us in. Thanks for your help.
[04:38] ---
    I'm surprised you could understand that.
[04:44] ---
    What business do you and the 8th have
    with the captain, Lieutenant Asako?
[04:49] ---
    We want to hear from my
    grandfather about how,
[04:51] ---
    ever since he got those scars
    on his face, he's changed.
[04:55] ---
    Captain Hague is a great man.
[04:58] ---
    A leading figure, who rose up
    from the regular Fire Fighters
[05:01] ---
    to become a member of the Special Fire Force.
[05:04] ---
    All of us here at the 4th look up to him.
[05:08] ---
    Even now, our feelings
    for him remain unchanged.
[05:11] ---
    The captain is up ahead.
    He asked for you to go in alone, Kusakabe.
[05:15] ---
    Just me?
[05:16] ---
    I've told him that you'd like to
    ask about Adolla Bursts.
[05:20] ---
    I don't want to be in the way,
    so I'd best not go with you at first.
[05:26] ---
    All right. Well, then...
[05:30] ---
    Excuse me, sir.
[05:36] ---
    Second Class Fire Soldier
    Shinra Kusakabe, from the 8th.
[05:40] ---
    Thank you very much for being
    gracious enough to see me today, sir.
[05:44] ---
    I've been expecting you. To begin with,
[05:48] ---
    I'd like to see your flames.
[05:53] ---
    Would you mind burning me?
[05:55] ---
    Oh, goodness.
[05:57] ---
    Forgive me, forgive me. That must have
    startled you. Not like that.
[06:02] ---
    Allow me to lay it out.
[06:05] ---
    I want you to burn me!
[06:08] ---
    Eww...
[06:09] ---
    G-Go on, go on, go on, go on...
[06:12] ---
    Burn you?
[06:14] ---
    Burn me as hard as you can!
[06:17] ---
    That's right! Go ahead and burn him,
    just like he wants!
[06:21] ---
    Burn him. Burn him. Burn him to death.
[06:25] ---
    Don't hold it in anymore.
[06:28] ---
    Kill that despicable demon.
    Go ahead and waste him.
[06:33] ---
    That demon was Mom. I
    can't possibly kill her.
[06:37] ---
    Then what's to become of the thirst for blood
    you've had for the last 12 years?
[06:41] ---
    It's not just going to vanish
    that easily, you know. Right?
[06:44] ---
    --Devil!
    --Mother-killer!
    --You disgust me!
[06:46] ---
    You only put up with all of it
    because once you killed that demon,
[06:49] ---
    it would feel so much better, right?
[06:51] ---
    Are you just planning to wave away
    all that pent-up anger?
[06:54] ---
    Start burning and find your relief.
[06:56] ---
    Like, "Yeah, I'm every bit
    the devil you say I am!"
[07:01] ---
    Not so eager? After all, being a hero
    doesn't matter anymore, does it?
[07:06] ---
    This whole world is one lie after another.
[07:09] ---
    There's no such damn thing
    as a hero in a world like this.
[07:15] ---
    Yeah, he's the one you want to kill
    the most right now, isn't he?
[07:19] ---
    He decided for himself
    to hide everything from you.
[07:22] ---
    This is on him.
[07:24] ---
    Start burning.
[07:26] ---
    Start burning, and you'll feel better.
    All of it. Set it all free.
[07:31] ---
    Let go of all of that anger!
[07:35] ---
    Sister...?
[07:37] ---
    Plunge it all into your flames!
[07:40] ---
    No, you're not the sister. Who are you?
[07:47] ---
    That was an Adolla Link.
[07:51] ---
    Has my contact with you triggered it?
[07:54] ---
    So you saw a woman who
    looks like someone you know.
[07:58] ---
    I'd like to meet this angel.
[08:02] ---
    I want you to burn me even more now.
[08:03] ---
    Eep!
[08:05] ---
    Captain Hague, have you
    gone through an Adolla Link, too?
[08:09] ---
    If that's what you want to call it, then yes.
    It was a magnificent experience.
[08:14] ---
    Captain Burns had his eye
    burned out as his trade-off.
[08:18] ---
    Are those scars on your face yours?
[08:22] ---
    I've fought like crazy all this time
    to keep people's lives and property safe.
[08:28] ---
    But on that day, two years ago,
    my way of thinking changed.
[08:34] ---
    The Great Fire was enough
    to swallow up the whole city.
[08:37] ---
    I thought I had saved so many lives,
[08:40] ---
    but the truth is, I was unable to
    save so many more lives, wasn't I?
[08:50] ---
    It was then that I felt a hope
    that was close to hopelessness--
[08:55] ---
    a sense of liberation.
[08:57] ---
    It felt like everything had been saved.
[09:00] ---
    "Adolla Link"--
    Is that what that baptism is called?
[09:04] ---
    What I saw was unlike the light of the sun
    preached by the Holy Sol Temple.
[09:10] ---
    The light I saw was the
    veritable light of God.
[09:13] ---
    To reach that divine realm is indeed
    the very salvation of mankind.
[09:18] ---
    These scars are my stigmata--
    sacred scratches that have opened my eyes.
[09:25] ---
    Please, Kusakabe-kun,
    will you burn me with your holy flames?
[09:31] ---
    I might be able to see
    that divine realm again.
[09:33] ---
    Captain Hague, do you think
    that otherworldly hellscape is God's world?
[09:39] ---
    Whether it is Heaven or Hell is fine to me.
[09:44] ---
    The God and Devil that people conceive of
[09:46] ---
    are both nothing more than
    a pale mockery of Adolla.
[09:49] ---
    I've seen the verity of it.
[09:52] ---
    I want to tell others that this is the truth!
[09:56] ---
    I didn't feel any salvation
    in the Adolla Link that I experienced.
[10:01] ---
    It probably feels mundane to you,
    possessing an Adolla Burst as you do.
[10:06] ---
    However, I am just an ordinary man.
[10:10] ---
    I'm just a man, too.
[10:18] ---
    Mamoru-kun?
[10:22] ---
    Shinra Kusakabe, I'll kill you.
[10:25] ---
    Karin, why? Are you that upset
    over me tossing you about earlier?
[10:31] ---
    It's the perfect opportunity, right?
    If that's how he wants it, then kill him.
[10:37] ---
    What's come over all of you?
[10:39] ---
    Kill him.
[10:41] ---
    You've got the perfect target
    to take it out on. Kill him.
[10:45] ---
    Free your anger. As hard as you can.
[10:48] ---
    Burn everything...
[10:50] ---
    Kusakabe-kun?
[10:52] ---
    Come on, let's get to it!
[10:54] ---
    Burn everything!
[10:56] ---
    Do it.
[10:58] ---
    This is your Adolla Burst?
    It's so hot! Good! Good!
[11:04] ---
    Grandpa!
[11:06] ---
    We have our crewmen acting strangely here?!
[11:08] ---
    Yeah, and Kusakabe-kun, as well.
[11:10] ---
    It's almost like they're
    possessed by something.
[11:13] ---
    --Mother-killer!
    --Devil!
[11:14] ---
    --You disgust me!
    --Devil!
[11:16] ---
    They said all that crap
    without even knowing anything...
[11:19] ---
    No, I guess I was the one who didn't know.
[11:23] ---
    Enough. It doesn't matter.
[11:25] ---
    Die, all of you.
[11:29] ---
    You need to start behaving yourselves.
[11:43] ---
    I came to use the 4th's crewmen
    to get in Shinra's face,
[11:47] ---
    and now the First Pillar is
    using Shinra to go on a rampage.
[11:49] ---
    The First Pillar? Hey, Haumea,
    did you just say the First Pillar?!
[11:53] ---
    Through an Adolla Link?!
[11:54] ---
    Hey, tell me, is the First Pillar
    in contact with Shinra Kusakabe?!
[11:58] ---
    --Charon, you are one damn
    annoying man! Die, you scum!
[11:58] ---
    --Whoa! For real? The First Pillar has
    appeared? Through an Adolla Link, right?
[12:04] ---
    Yeah! Through an Adolla Link!
    You know where the First Pillar is!
[12:08] ---
    It's not as though she's
    actually here, though!
[12:10] ---
    She's using an Adolla Link to possess Shinra.
[12:13] ---
    She has her sights set on
    Shinra's anger and resentment.
[12:16] ---
    She's taking out her anger by using Shinra.
[12:19] ---
    Shinra is synced in with his anger, too.
    Taking them on...
[12:23] ---
    ...are the slick fire-fighting elite old man,
    and the hotshot Buff user.
[12:28] ---
    "Heat Resistance Buff"
[12:32] ---
    I don't want things to get
    too rough inside my office.
[12:37] ---
    We can't very well have a fire
    break out at the fire station.
[12:40] ---
    Type 1 Fire Axes!
[12:45] ---
    Almost as though you're
    a beast wearing a human form.
[12:48] ---
    There's no need to hold back anymore.
[12:51] ---
    Let's kill anyone who gets in our way.
[12:54] ---
    How does she have this
    much hatred? Who is this?
[12:58] ---
    I'm getting swallowed up!
[13:02] ---
    Whoa-ho, that's hot! A-Adolla! Adolla!
[13:08] ---
    What are you doing, Captain?!
    You should have been able to avoid that!
[13:12] ---
    Very good... Yes, indeed...
[13:16] ---
    But if I bask in it for too long,
    I'll never survive it.
[13:20] ---
    --But still, I really want it...
[13:22] ---
    --Grandpa...?
    --But still, I really want it...
[13:23] ---
    Please pull it together, sir!
    You really will end up dead!
[13:26] ---
    Dead, huh? For the 4th's sake,
    I can't afford to die just yet.
[13:32] ---
    Oh, that's amazing in its own right!
[13:35] ---
    Even with his heat resistance boosted,
    he's not going to last like this.
[13:39] ---
    Dodge him!
[13:42] ---
    Those flame spears...
[13:44] ---
    That Shinra bastard thinks he can
    do whatever he wants here.
[13:47] ---
    I take my eyes off of him for a minute,
    and what does he do?
[13:49] ---
    You're here just in time, Ogun!
[13:51] ---
    And Arthur...?
[13:53] ---
    We figured that shock lady we met in the Nether
    might come after Shinra again.
[13:58] ---
    My captain has asked me to be his bodyguard.
[14:05] ---
    What's with you? Is that really you, Shinra?
    What happened?
[14:09] ---
    Is it that harebrained woman
    we met in the Nether? No...
[14:13] ---
    I'm sensing yet another presence
    coming from inside you.
[14:16] ---
    Kill you... Kill you...
[14:18] ---
    Your face is as ugly as ever, though.
[14:22] ---
    Time for a devil hunt.
[14:23] ---
    Hey, hold on. Let's think of a way
    to bring Shinra back to his senses.
[14:27] ---
    Easy enough to say, but how do we do that?
[14:29] ---
    If Kusakabe-kun has become like this
    because of the effects of an Adolla Link,
[14:33] ---
    we can either break the link, or...
[14:35] ---
    Let's allow his two classmates
    to handle this, sir.
[14:38] ---
    I'll back you up! You two just
    focus on stopping Kusakabe!
[14:41] ---
    Here he comes!
[14:45] ---
    Are you kidding me? That
    was too fast to see--
[14:50] ---
    I increased your durability
    with my muscle-boosting whistle.
[14:53] ---
    It still hurts like hell, though.
[14:55] ---
    No fair!
[14:58] ---
    So that's his Rapid, huh?
    After actually taking one,
[15:01] ---
    our bodies can't move
    in time even if we do react.
[15:03] ---
    Both of you, leave the
    Buffs and recovery to me.
[15:05] ---
    All right, we'll fight him as a party.
    We'll tank on the front line!
[15:06] ---
    "Buff" "Party Play" "SPD"
[15:10] ---
    "Bard"
    "Pan"
[15:11] ---
    I, Pan the Bard, will inspire the warriors
    with my magic flute.
[15:14] ---
    "Warrior"
    "Ogun"
[15:14] ---
    I, Ogun the Warrior,
    will avenge everyone in the village!
[15:17] ---
    "Shield of Masochism"
[15:18] ---
    I'm Shield of Masochism,
    created by the dwarves.
[15:22] ---
    Wh-What the...?
[15:24] ---
    Let's go, Knight King!
[15:25] ---
    Yes, to strike down Satan!
[15:28] ---
    Arthur, what's suddenly come over you?
    You're acting strange.
[15:31] ---
    Is he being controlled, like the others?
[15:34] ---
    No, he's going beyond us.
[15:37] ---
    You mean he's playing knight
    like he always does?
[15:39] ---
    But he looks even more obtuse than usual.
    He's going pretty deep, sir.
[15:44] ---
    What exactly could have
    pushed his button like this?
[15:51] ---
    The Adolla Burst!
[15:53] ---
    Force Shield!
[15:56] ---
    Shield Bash!
[15:58] ---
    Arthur! What do you think
    you're doing with the captain?!
[16:01] ---
    Good work, Shield of Masochism.
[16:03] ---
    This has never happened to me before.
[16:06] ---
    Captain, stop enjoying this!
[16:09] ---
    "Slump"
[16:14] ---
    Hey, Shinra,
[16:15] ---
    what happened to being a hero?
[16:18] ---
    I burned up all that rubbish
    about being a hero.
[16:23] ---
    Do you really mean that?
    Or is that whoever's inside you?
[16:28] ---
    What is that smile supposed to mean?
[16:31] ---
    Are you celebrating, because you can
    finally reveal your true self?
[16:34] ---
    --Or do you seek the Knight King's aid?
    --Burn him! Burn him! Burn him!
[16:37] ---
    I know where your mother is.
[16:41] ---
    --How you can see her again.
    --Hey, Devil, you hear me?!
[16:43] ---
    I'll give you three chances.
    I'll let you off three times.
[16:47] ---
    The fourth time, I'll slice you up.
    Come to your senses before then.
[16:52] ---
    Did you even hear me?
[16:54] ---
    I'm giving you four chances!
[16:55] ---
    "*Wrong) 4 times"
    "Right) 3 times"
[17:00] ---
    That was your first one.
[17:02] ---
    You really are a damn powerhouse
    when you're delusional.
[17:05] ---
    What set you off like this?
[17:08] ---
    I was born a Knight King.
    That's the way I was brought up.
[17:12] ---
    Knight King? Like, nobility?
[17:15] ---
    What the hell kind of household
    did you grow up in?
[17:18] ---
    Nobility, you say? Can
    royalty become nobility?
[17:23] ---
    What kind of folk were we, exactly?
[17:26] ---
    A fire that erupted at a restaurant
    was put out early yesterday morning.
[17:30] ---
    "Restaurant Fire"
    "Did food poisoning lead to the fire...?"
[17:30] ---
    The restaurant that caught fire
[17:32] ---
    --is still reeling from a recent
    outbreak of food poisoning.
[17:34] ---
    --They're talking about us on the news.
    What are we going to do?
[17:38] ---
    Supper is ready, so go get your father.
[17:41] ---
    Affirmative.
[17:42] ---
    Hey, it's our last supper.
[17:47] ---
    Sounds like the family's finances
    have gone up in smoke.
[17:52] ---
    Something wrong, Arthur?
[17:54] ---
    Why were you looking at the inside of your hat?
    Could you see something?
[17:58] ---
    You always say the funniest things, Arthur.
[18:02] ---
    Well, okay. I was looking at
    a sky full of stars--
[18:07] ---
    the whole universe inside this hat!
[18:10] ---
    You liar, it's pitch black.
    You can't see a thing in here.
[18:14] ---
    Really?
[18:19] ---
    I see a castle! It's your castle, Father!
[18:21] ---
    A castle, huh? That's terrific!
[18:24] ---
    There are lots of soldiers, too.
[18:26] ---
    What are you two doing?
[18:31] ---
    Come, Arthur, the ball is starting.
SIGN    "To our dear son, Arthur, Your mother and father have gone on a journey to save the world! The castle is all yours!! As of today, you are the king!!!"
[18:57] ---
    King?!
[18:59] ---
    Ever since that day,
    I have been the Knight King.
[19:03] ---
    So, your parents just vanished,
    and left you abandon--
[19:14] ---
    You have one chance left.
    Are you going to forsake being a hero and die?
[19:17] ---
    I never needed that nonsense
    in the first place!
[19:23] ---
    I really am going to have to go for the throat,
    or I'll be in danger myself.
[19:27] ---
    Heroes are obviously stronger and cooler!
[19:30] ---
    Hmph, you idiot. Knights are cooler.
[19:33] ---
    We're not here to become either
    knights or heroes, but Fire Soldiers.
[19:38] ---
    I'm going to unmask you for
    who you really are someday, Devil.
[19:41] ---
    I have to be a hero.
[19:44] ---
    It was a promise I made to my family.
[19:46] ---
    I see.
[19:48] ---
    In that, at least, we are alike.
[19:50] ---
    I acknowledged you for
    keeping your oath, at least,
[19:53] ---
    but in the end, you're still a devil!
[19:55] ---
    If it means killing the demon that
    killed my old lady, then I'll be a devil!
[20:00] ---
    But your mother was that demon, right?
[20:02] ---
    Yeah, that's right.
[20:04] ---
    My old lady's gone, and the demon
    who I wanted dead is gone!
[20:06] ---
    It's too much hassle,
    so I'm gonna burn everything now!
[20:09] ---
    How do you figure? I don't understand.
    What about your brother, Sho?
[20:15] ---
    --Shut up!
    --Shut up!
[20:16] ---
    Screw you! What am I supposed to do
    with the thirst for blood
[20:19] ---
    I've felt for the last 12 years?!
[20:20] ---
    --Burn it up! Let it burn! Burn it up!
[20:20] ---
    --I'm going to take it out on this
    lame-ass world by burning it up!
[20:25] ---
    I'll kill anybody who gets in my way!
[20:28] ---
    Knight Kick!
[20:28] ---
    "Knight Kick"
[20:31] ---
    Knight Punch!
[20:31] ---
    "Knight Punch"
[20:32] ---
    We never did settle the question
    between knights and heroes,
[20:36] ---
    but you sure are weak, Devil!
[20:37] ---
    What did you say?
[20:38] ---
    Knight Head!
[20:38] ---
    "Knight Head"
[20:41] ---
    What do you know? The person I wanted
    to take vengeance on is someone I love!
[20:46] ---
    Now who am I supposed to
    wanna kill to keep on living?!
[20:49] ---
    Protect the ones who are important to you!
[20:51] ---
    That's something that knights,
    heroes, and Fire Soldiers all do!
[20:55] ---
    Even if you protect them,
    someday, their lives will pass on.
[20:58] ---
    Become someone who snuffs them out, instead.
[21:01] ---
    That way is much simpler
    and clear-cut, right?
[21:03] ---
    Now, get up! Are you a hero,
    or are you a devil?!
[21:06] ---
    Get up and answer me! What are you?!
[21:09] ---
    And depending on how you answer,
    I'll cut you down!
[21:15] ---
    That's it, burn him to death!
[21:27] ---
    Am I a hero or am I a devil? Well, damn it...
[21:31] ---
    I can't believe I seriously have to answer
    such a ridiculous question.
[21:36] ---
    I am a hero!
[21:40] ---
    Get out of me!
[21:42] ---
    Guess I'm out of luck.
    But I enjoyed that more than I expected.
[21:46] ---
    Wait! You said you would let me
    see my mother, right?
[21:49] ---
    Does that mean my mom still actually exists?
[21:53] ---
    Heh-heh, that's a good question.
    You rejected me, so I'm not telling.
[21:59] ---
    Wait!
[22:00] ---
    Oh, one other thing.
[22:02] ---
    Haumea, Sho, Shinra--and now it looks like
    one more Pillar is about to be born.
[22:08] ---
    Pillar? You mean, a person who
    has an Adolla Burst?
[22:11] ---
    I've become aware of
    the birth of this new Pillar.
[22:15] ---
    The Evangelist must have
    realized it, as well.
[22:18] ---
    The Fire Force or the Evangelist--
    which one will obtain the Pillar?
[22:24] ---
    "To be continued"
[23:56] ---
    "Fire Force, Season 2"
[23:59] ---
    "Next time"
[24:01] ---
    The appearance of a new
    Adolla Burst is predicted
[24:04] ---
    by the mysterious girl
    who threw Shinra-san for a loop.
[24:06] ---
    Word is that it might be the so-called
    Fireground Thief schoolgirl.
[24:09] ---
    It couldn't be! Her?
    Delinquent behavior is bad!
[24:12] ---
    If you want, I'll get you out of here.
[24:15] ---
    That is, after you give me your valuables.
[24:18] ---
    Next time on Fire Force, Season 2,
    episode 3, "A New Flashpoint."
[24:18] ---
    "Episode 3:
    A New Flashpoint"
[24:24] ---
    Return to the great flame of fire. Látom.
