[00:02] ---
    Causes of death are many and varied.
    Old age, suicide, illness...
[00:08] ---
    But the cause of death that scares
    the most people in this day and age...
[00:16] ---
    ...is death by fire.
[00:29] ---
    Please evacuate quickly!
[00:31] ---
    We will put the Infernals to rest!
[00:42] ---
    Aw, not our town...
[00:47] ---
    Someone, please hurry and
    put my husband out of his misery!
[00:51] ---
    An Infernal!
[00:53] ---
    Sister!
[00:54] ---
    Right!
[00:56] ---
    The flame is the soul's breath.
    The black smoke is the soul's release.
[01:02] ---
    Ashes thou wert and art.
[01:05] ---
    May thy soul return to
    the great flame of fire.
[01:10] ---
    Látom.
[01:14] ---
    That was the third one.
[01:16] ---
    There are so many of them,
[01:17] ---
    and they're spreading
    out throughout the town.
[01:21] ---
    I've spotted several of them
    near the lieutenant.
[01:24] ---
    It appears that the number of
    Infernals is still increasing.
[01:33] ---
    With this many of them, there's no question
    they're using those Insects.
[01:38] ---
    There has to be a command center
    somewhere directing them all.
[01:41] ---
    It could be that plasma user from the Nether.
[01:46] ---
    Haumea-sama, we have finished
    exploring the eastern quarter.
[01:49] ---
    Even after all that, there is still
    no one compatible. On to the next area.
[01:58] ---
    Get some distance.
[02:00] ---
    The Fire Force is nearby.
[03:32] ---
    "Episode 4:
    Groping Through the Fire"
[03:42] ---
    Blue Stripes! We've got an Infernal!
[03:52] ---
    There are so many of them.
[03:53] ---
    Keep spraying them to slow them down
    until we can put them to rest.
[03:56] ---
    Got it.
[03:58] ---
    Maki-san, we're more or less
    keeping them at bay,
[04:01] ---
    but we need the sister to put them to rest.
[04:03] ---
    Copy.
[04:05] ---
    The sister is heading this way now!
[04:07] ---
    Just hold on!
[04:14] ---
    Vulcan!
[04:16] ---
    Infernals from the rear, too?
[04:30] ---
    I am terribly sorry. Please forgive me
    for putting you to rest without a prayer.
[04:36] ---
    No, it's all right, Lieutenant!
[04:41] ---
    The flame is the soul's breath.
    The black smoke is the soul's release.
[04:47] ---
    Ashes thou wert and art. May thy soul
    return to the great flame of fire.
[04:53] ---
    Látom.
[04:59] ---
    Látom.
[05:01] ---
    Are you all right, Vulcan-san?
[05:03] ---
    That was close. You saved me.
[05:05] ---
    I'm sorry we took so long. We just
    finished putting another one to rest.
[05:09] ---
    I need you to keep stopping them
    on the front lines.
[05:11] ---
    If we don't ensure the Fire Fighters' safety,
    they can't put out the fires.
[05:15] ---
    Understood, sir.
[05:17] ---
    Vulcan, good to go?
[05:18] ---
    No problem, sir.
    Two more Infernals down this way.
[05:23] ---
    Ugh, if I'd known it would be like this,
    I wouldn't have come.
[05:27] ---
    The distribution of these Infernals
    is not at all spontaneous.
[05:30] ---
    They're probably using Insects
    to set people ablaze and split us up.
[05:33] ---
    Maki, Vulcan, locate the plasma user for me.
[05:36] ---
    She must be issuing instructions
    to the hostiles throughout town.
[05:55] ---
    Vulcan, plasma user acquired.
[05:58] ---
    I'll send Arthur her way,
    so send me her location.
[06:01] ---
    Copy.
[06:06] ---
    Arthur, do you read me?
[06:08] ---
    I've located the plasma user.
[06:09] ---
    I'm coming to get you
    on the double, so fight her off.
[06:22] ---
    I'm taking you with me, too.
    Don't interfere, just come quietly.
[06:27] ---
    Screw that!
[06:29] ---
    Who do you two think you are?
[06:31] ---
    I'll decide for myself what I'm gonna do.
[06:33] ---
    I may not understand what your objective is,
[06:35] ---
    but don't go deciding for me
    if you're escorting me or securing me!
[06:39] ---
    WALK!
[06:50] ---
    You possess an Adolla Burst.
    Your freedom... is gone.
[07:06] ---
    I'll take you somewhere safe right away.
[07:09] ---
    Just leave this to me. I'm a hero, after all.
[07:13] ---
    Safe? What for? That's so dull.
    Out of the question.
[07:23] ---
    Day-to-day life without any thrills?
    That would be so boring.
[07:29] ---
    Count me out.
[07:31] ---
    What are you talking about?
[07:32] ---
    You may steal money from people,
    but you still save their lives, right?
[07:36] ---
    I don't care if you do save me,
    I'm not giving you anything.
[07:40] ---
    I was never after anything
    in return in the first place!
[07:42] ---
    It's because you people are like this
[07:44] ---
    that people think getting rescued
    is something to be expected.
[07:47] ---
    You're turning out incompetent scum
    that can do nothing but wait for you!
[07:50] ---
    As long as the people end up
    getting rescued, what does it matter?
[07:53] ---
    Having an ability doesn't make you a bigshot!
[07:55] ---
    People don't know what's
    right or what's wrong.
[07:59] ---
    Don't go forcing your boring safety on me!
[08:02] ---
    Huh?
[08:12] ---
    Whoa,
[08:14] ---
    this one is tough. Still...
[08:19] ---
    I'm just gonna burn the same way
    I've seen others, right?
[08:22] ---
    What's suddenly come over you?
[08:25] ---
    So what if I just do whatever I want to?
[08:51] ---
    Wait!
[08:56] ---
    The Fifth Pillar belongs to us!
[08:58] ---
    Get out of my way!
[09:05] ---
    I'm picking up multiple heat sources.
[09:08] ---
    Stay right with me.
[09:10] ---
    Two of them at one o'clock.
[09:12] ---
    One of them at nine o'clock.
[09:18] ---
    No, there's more than just them.
[09:21] ---
    So it would seem.
[09:22] ---
    How are we supposed to stop this many of them
    without putting them to rest?
[09:31] ---
    Hold on!
[09:43] ---
    There's a far stronger heat source
    coming from that group of them!
[09:46] ---
    What?
[09:54] ---
    Is that...?
[10:04] ---
    A demon Infernal.
[10:36] ---
    It can't be...
[10:41] ---
    This is great!
[10:42] ---
    Of course a demon is gonna be born!
[10:45] ---
    We have someone here who just
    had her Adolla Burst awaken.
[10:47] ---
    I knew that if we used Insects around her
    to cause human combustion,
[10:50] ---
    we'd have a demon pop up from among them.
[10:54] ---
    Though I have to admit, it's gonna be
    quite the ordeal for them.
[10:56] ---
    Imagine, not being able to finish off
    an Infernal without putting them to rest!
[11:00] ---
    You Fire Soldiers sure tie yourselves up
    in some inconvenient bondage games.
[11:05] ---
    Maki-san, we've got a demon on our hands now.
[11:08] ---
    There's no way we can stop them.
[11:09] ---
    The sister is heading there now.
[11:11] ---
    Just hang on!
[11:13] ---
    Easy for her to say.
[11:18] ---
    What are we supposed to do by ourselves?
[11:21] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[11:23] ---
    I didn't mean to take so long.
    I had some trouble getting changed.
[11:28] ---
    Tamaki, you've been through
    the sisters' training?
[11:30] ---
    Well, I did come from the 1st, after all.
[11:33] ---
    But this is my first time
    putting anyone to rest in the field.
[11:35] ---
    Do your best.
[11:36] ---
    Yes, sir, I'll start right away--
[11:41] ---
    Why me?
[11:43] ---
    How did everything from
    the neck down come off?
[11:45] ---
    And how come only the veil stayed on?
[11:48] ---
    The bikini-and-veil look
    is an awfully niche kink.
[11:51] ---
    Wait, if you can get to heaven that way,
    that may not sound so bad.
[11:55] ---
    Don't be ridiculous. There's no way.
[12:00] ---
    --Here they come!
    --If we can't put them to rest,
    what are we supposed to do?!
[12:02] ---
    --If we can't put them to rest,
    what are we supposed to do?!
[12:03] ---
    Oh, sorry! I'll get dressed again right away!
[12:13] ---
    Hang in there, Vulcan.
[12:16] ---
    This is where we're gonna
    meet our end, all right.
[12:18] ---
    Don't give up!
[12:19] ---
    Just hold on, you two! I'm almost finished--
[12:22] ---
    Damn it! Whoa...!
[12:24] ---
    --Vulcan!
    --Damn it, damn it...!
[12:39] ---
    For heaven's sake, Tamaki...
[12:42] ---
    As always, what are you even doing?
[12:45] ---
    Lieutenant Karim!
[12:57] ---
    This is Hinawa. Lieutenant Karim
    from the 1st has joined us.
[13:01] ---
    He's here? That's a big help.
[13:03] ---
    I thought we couldn't count on any of
    the other companies to work with us.
[13:07] ---
    Not officially, no. But I requested
    a little personal assistance.
[13:12] ---
    I hear you're short on clerical help.
[13:15] ---
    I'm really glad you're here.
    Now we can put them to rest.
[13:21] ---
    All right, let's go!
[13:34] ---
    Go grab the girl who ran away.
[13:36] ---
    Sir!
[13:37] ---
    Hold it!
[13:39] ---
    Move it!
[13:41] ---
    Let go of me, you...!
[13:43] ---
    No you don't!
[13:52] ---
    Is that...?
[13:54] ---
    Backdraft Bubblish Gum.
[14:02] ---
    It's you! The guy from the 5th!
[14:04] ---
    Toru Kishiri!
[14:06] ---
    I got a request that you wanted
    some extra help, so here I am.
[14:11] ---
    There's another one?
[14:12] ---
    N-No, not me. I just happened
    to be passing by. No, really...
[14:24] ---
    Whoa, hell of a barrage.
[14:27] ---
    This is bad! This is bad, but here I am!
[14:32] ---
    Juggernaut!
[14:35] ---
    Let's get 'em!
[14:44] ---
    We can't just run up to them.
[14:51] ---
    Stay away!
[15:00] ---
    Way to go, Juggernaut! I'll make sure
    not to let them anywhere near us,
[15:04] ---
    so you just keep on backing away
    and firing at them!
[15:07] ---
    You just make sure!
[15:08] ---
    Keep your distance and return fire!
[15:11] ---
    Sir!
[15:16] ---
    Keep away!
[15:25] ---
    I hate to do this, you
    two, but you've got this!
[15:28] ---
    Huh?!
[15:30] ---
    I'm not going to let them get that girl!
[15:32] ---
    Hm? Shinra Kusakabe!
    Where do you think you're going?
[15:36] ---
    You're going where Inca is, right?
    Isn't that right?!
[15:40] ---
    Answer my question!
[15:53] ---
    Damn it!
[16:04] ---
    Let me go! Let go of me!
[16:06] ---
    Be quiet!
[16:07] ---
    Stop that! Let the girl go!
[16:10] ---
    Butt out! I want to live someplace that
    scares the living daylights out of me!
[16:15] ---
    What is wrong with you?
[16:32] ---
    Hurry! The Infernals are coming!
[16:34] ---
    That way is cut off!
[16:36] ---
    Sister, we need to put
    the next one to rest, please.
[16:39] ---
    Yes, sir.
[16:42] ---
    We call it a prayer, but she puts
    her whole soul into supplicating.
[16:47] ---
    The sister's strength and
    concentration has their limits.
[16:52] ---
    Are you all right, Sister?
[16:54] ---
    Hmm? There's nothing at
    all wrong with me, sir.
[16:58] ---
    The flame is the soul's breath.
    The black smoke is the soul's release.
[17:05] ---
    Who are you?
[17:07] ---
    A sister squad under the
    command of Lieutenant Karim.
[17:15] ---
    Company 2 Platoon on the scene!
[17:19] ---
    Company 5 Platoon, secure an
    evacuation route for the civilians!
[17:22] ---
    --Yes, sir!
    --Yes, sir!
[17:28] ---
    Am I glad to see them! Reinforcements!
[17:31] ---
    Captain Obi, I am Platoon Leader
    Taguchi, from the 2nd.
[17:35] ---
    I am Platoon Leader Tokuyama, from the 5th.
[17:38] ---
    Thanks for the assistance.
    I'm glad you answered my call.
[17:43] ---
    I've known about you since
    your days as a regular Fire Fighter, sir.
[17:48] ---
    It is an honor to be able to
    work together with you today.
[17:53] ---
    Company 2 Platoon, put
    those Infernals to rest!
[17:56] ---
    Company 5 Platoon, after securing
    that route, get everyone evacuated!
[18:00] ---
    --Yes, sir!
    --Yes, sir!
[18:02] ---
    Captain, look how many of them
    there are. Isn't this great?
[18:07] ---
    Yeah.
[18:09] ---
    We aren't the only Fire Soldiers
    that want to protect people.
[18:19] ---
    The flames are now spread
    out all across town.
[18:24] ---
    Adding a few more Fire Soldiers
    at this point won't do any good.
[18:29] ---
    The Fifth Pillar is as good as ours.
[18:32] ---
    Celestial Knight Slash!
[18:36] ---
    Whoa, you freaked me out.
[18:38] ---
    Gah, it's you again!
[18:40] ---
    Maki, shock lady acquired.
[18:43] ---
    Take her out.
[18:45] ---
    So you're the enemy commander, are you?
[18:48] ---
    I challenge you to a one-on-one duel!
[18:51] ---
    Charon, I've got a problem here. Hurry it up.
[18:54] ---
    I'm not siding with either one of you guys!
    Let me go! Release me!
[19:00] ---
    Let the girl go!
[19:07] ---
    --Hold her there.
    --Let me go!
[19:08] ---
    Sir.
[19:10] ---
    I'm getting real tired of
    that hulking frame of yours.
[19:14] ---
    I'll blow you away!
[19:17] ---
    That was nothing!
[19:20] ---
    CLAP!
[19:31] ---
    Your attacks are all speed and no heat.
[19:36] ---
    Oh, shut up. Screw you.
[19:40] ---
    Still, the fact remains that
    my Rapid doesn't work against him.
[19:52] ---
    He triggers explosions just by walking.
[19:55] ---
    I could create explosions
    like that, too, if I wanted to.
[20:03] ---
    The flame is the soul's breath.
    The black smoke is the soul's release.
[20:08] ---
    Fire!
[20:12] ---
    Ashes thou wert and art.
[20:14] ---
    May thy soul return to
    the great flame of fire. Látom.
[20:27] ---
    Captain, the Infernals are being
    put to rest like clockwork now.
[20:31] ---
    But how are we going to
    extinguish all this fire?
[20:34] ---
    The way things are headed,
    the whole town is going to burn down.
[20:47] ---
    Return to the great flame of fire.
[20:49] ---
    Látom.
[20:50] ---
    Whew. That just leaves...
[20:53] ---
    ...the one-horned demon Infernal!
[21:08] ---
    Damn! I can't send out orders
    when you're around!
[21:13] ---
    I am going to shatter your scheme!
[21:15] ---
    Hmph, oh, are you, now?
    But then, we already have the Fifth Pillar!
[21:23] ---
    We're going to be the ones
    to assemble the eight key Pillars.
[21:27] ---
    Unhand me! I do not belong to anyone!
[21:30] ---
    Let me go! Release me!
[21:33] ---
    That leaves you, Fourth Pillar.
[21:38] ---
    I can't beat him like this. However...
[21:43] ---
    ...when I was training with Captain Shinmon,
[21:46] ---
    there was one tenokata form
    that caused an explosion.
[21:50] ---
    You extend your index and pinky fingers.
[21:53] ---
    Whenever you get in a pinch,
    remember "rock" while making this sign,
[21:56] ---
    and it will inspire courage within you.
[22:02] ---
    I guess I'll try it.
[22:05] ---
    I'm just getting started, you damn gorilla!
[22:12] ---
    The form I learned from Captain Obi himself--
[22:18] ---
    the "Corna"!
[22:21] ---
    "To be continued"
[23:56] ---
    "Fire Force, Season 2"
[24:00] ---
    "Next time"
[24:03] ---
    Shinra-san squares off against
    the White-Clad Charon.
[24:06] ---
    While fighting an uphill battle
    against a foe he can't lay a scratch on,
[24:10] ---
    he finally figures out the secret.
    Now, Shinra-san! Your finishing move!
[24:15] ---
    We'll see about that!
[24:18] ---
    "Episode 5"
    "Corna (Sign of the Devil)"
[24:18] ---
    Next time on Fire Force, Season 2,
    episode 5, "Corna."
[24:23] ---
    Return to the great flame of fire. Látom.
