[00:10] ---
    Hey, Charon!
[00:11] ---
    I've got my own hands full of trouble up here!
    Hurry up and grab the Pillar!
[00:16] ---
    I read you, Haumea.
[00:21] ---
    Bastard!
[00:25] ---
    This guy is pretty tough in his own right.
[00:32] ---
    This guy's a rock. No matter how hard
    I attack, he doesn't even flinch.
[00:37] ---
    It's almost like I'm not even hurting him.
[00:41] ---
    Again?!
[00:42] ---
    SNAP!
[00:51] ---
    Damn...
[00:53] ---
    I'm not just not hurting him,
    he doesn't even have a scratch.
[00:56] ---
    Where is all the energy from
    my full-power kicks going?
[01:01] ---
    Not to mention his explosive
    pyrokinetic ability...
[01:06] ---
    All he has to do is walk
    and it triggers explosions.
[01:13] ---
    He's able to walk quietly, too.
    Did those explosions use up all his gas?
[01:20] ---
    If something seems out of place,
    then I need to reconsider it from square one.
[01:26] ---
    Energy that seems to just disappear...
[01:29] ---
    Explosions...
[01:31] ---
    The way he explicitly calls it out
    when he uses his ability...
[01:34] ---
    That first overblown explosion
    he made a show of at the start...
[01:38] ---
    Because of all that,
[01:40] ---
    I made the unwarranted assumption
    that he has to be a third generation.
[01:46] ---
    What generation are you?
[03:21] ---
    "Episode 5:
    Corna (Sign of the Devil)"
[03:43] ---
    Step back and stay behind me.
[04:08] ---
    That is amazing.
[04:11] ---
    It's no big deal.
[04:14] ---
    Using your opponent's flames to
    turn heat into sound, and sound into cold.
[04:19] ---
    Second generations each have
    our own areas of specialty,
[04:22] ---
    but I've never seen anything like this.
[04:24] ---
    Lieutenant Hinawa, your ultra-fine
    flame control is something
[04:28] ---
    I could never duplicate, either.
[04:29] ---
    You second generations sure do
    have some radical abilities.
[04:34] ---
    We may not be able to create our own flames,
[04:36] ---
    but if we're facing a third generation,
[04:38] ---
    we can still use their own flames to fight with.
[04:41] ---
    Which is the whole reason why our tactic
    when fighting a third generation
[04:44] ---
    is to conceal what generation we are
    to get them to create their flames,
[04:47] ---
    and catch them off guard.
[04:51] ---
    So that's what's going on.
[04:55] ---
    You created a big extravagant
    explosion at the start
[04:58] ---
    to give off the illusion of
    being a third generation.
[05:01] ---
    You convert the kinetic energy you receive
    from an attack into heat energy,
[05:05] ---
    and then release it to attack.
[05:08] ---
    You're a second generation, aren't you?!
[05:11] ---
    I got tricked by your typical
    muscle-headed appearance.
[05:14] ---
    Yeah, you're absolutely right.
[05:21] ---
    But then, so what if I am?!
[05:26] ---
    He's right.
[05:28] ---
    Even after I've figured out the trick,
[05:30] ---
    it's not as though I'm
    any closer to landing any attacks.
[05:36] ---
    Unless I defeat this guy,
    I can't offer Inca any protection.
[05:40] ---
    But what do I do? Even if I do attack,
    he just sends it back as an explosion!
[05:45] ---
    But if I stand here doing nothing,
    I'm just gonna get beaten up.
[05:48] ---
    What's the matter? Too afraid of
    my counters to attack?
[05:53] ---
    You have to attack if you want
    to defeat your opponent!
[05:58] ---
    Think!
[06:00] ---
    As long as I don't lay a hand on him,
    he can't hit me back that hard--
[06:03] ---
    Hey, guys!
[06:07] ---
    No way...
[06:26] ---
    STAMP!
[06:47] ---
    Hold on...
[06:51] ---
    That's it. It's all in the timing.
[06:55] ---
    He absorbs energy, then releases it.
    The moment he releases it,
[06:59] ---
    his second-generation control over flames
    is directed outward, not inward.
[07:05] ---
    If I can counter his counter just right...
[07:08] ---
    I can't prove it will work,
    but it's still worth trying.
[07:14] ---
    And worth trying is all I have right now!
[07:17] ---
    Using my Corna, here!
[07:31] ---
    I'm going...
[07:33] ---
    ...to knock him flat!
[07:42] ---
    CLAP!
[07:43] ---
    Now!
[07:47] ---
    Damn, it didn't work!
[07:49] ---
    I could do it in Asakusa,
    but not here! What's different?!
[07:57] ---
    Being psyched up!
[07:58] ---
    I'm not psyched enough! Let's do this, damn it!
[08:04] ---
    Blow up, damn you!
[08:21] ---
    Damn... Why did Captain Obi
    even teach me about the Corna sign?
[08:30] ---
    The "Maloik Sign," the "Devil's Sign," "Corna"--
[08:34] ---
    it goes by many different names,
[08:36] ---
    but the fingers sticking up
    look just like a devil's horns.
[08:40] ---
    When we Fire Soldiers
    lose heart, we're done for.
[08:45] ---
    This sign is used to inspire your heart
    and strengthen your feelings.
[08:50] ---
    But a devil, sir? I'm a hero, not a devil.
[08:55] ---
    Oh, just listen.
[08:56] ---
    It's a sign that musicians who
    performed music known as "rock"
[08:59] ---
    used a long, long time ago.
[09:01] ---
    Nowadays, it only exists as audio
    in museums, but it is so cool.
[09:09] ---
    Whenever you get in a pinch,
    remember "rock" while making this sign,
[09:13] ---
    and it will inspire courage within you.
[09:16] ---
    Isn't that great? Kind of like
    your own trademark.
[09:24] ---
    I get the feeling that if I go down here,
    I'm not getting back up.
[09:31] ---
    If I mess up the timing even a little,
    it will all come back on me.
[09:38] ---
    Can I really get away with
    doing this and having it work?
[09:45] ---
    I'm not freaking out. I'm just
    making sure of my odds of winning!
[09:51] ---
    Which is the whole reason why
    I need the effort it takes to not fail,
[09:55] ---
    and the courage it takes to succeed!
[09:59] ---
    No matter how much I fight it,
    this "devil" thing keeps following me around.
[10:04] ---
    So I'll just be...
[10:07] ---
    ...a devil toward evil!
[10:18] ---
    --Corna!
    --CLAP!
[10:21] ---
    No way...
[10:23] ---
    Oh, crap...
[10:26] ---
    Choke on the flames of Hell!
[10:32] ---
    "Corna (Sign of the Devil)"
[10:38] ---
    Charon-sama!
[10:53] ---
    Rock & roll!
[11:00] ---
    "Episode 5:
    A Secret Plan"
[11:09] ---
    Not Charon the Reflector...
[11:11] ---
    Let the girl go!
[11:17] ---
    The Special Fire Force is taking her
    into protective custody.
[11:56] ---
    Damn, he's already broken out of that.
    I guess that didn't buy us much time.
[12:00] ---
    Everyone, please stand back.
[12:06] ---
    We'll create a firewall to
    protect us all from the flames!
[12:09] ---
    Second generations, join forces
    and take a defensive position!
[12:16] ---
    This is a demon...
[12:19] ---
    How are we supposed to
    take down something like that?
[12:22] ---
    The Special Fire Force has only
    defeated demons twice before.
[12:26] ---
    Once in Asakusa, when Lieutenant Konro
    used the ultra-high firepower of Crimson Moon,
[12:31] ---
    and again in Asakusa,
    when Captain Shinmon used Crimson Moon.
[12:36] ---
    Theoretically, if we can generate
    that much firepower,
[12:38] ---
    then putting a demon to rest might be possible.
[12:41] ---
    That scale of firepower?
    Licht, do you have any ideas?
[12:46] ---
    You're asking me for ideas?
[12:48] ---
    Why didn't you call the 7th
    in Asakusa to help us, sir?
[12:51] ---
    I did call! But they never answer their phone!
[12:54] ---
    We have all the flames we could ask for!
[12:56] ---
    Should I freeze him again?
[13:15] ---
    We have all the flames we could ask for...
[13:19] ---
    Yes I do, sir!
[13:21] ---
    A plan that will kill two birds with one stone--
[13:24] ---
    put out all the flames in town
    and defeat the demon!
[13:26] ---
    Licht, how can we do that?
[13:29] ---
    With a plan that uses all
    the second generations we have
[13:33] ---
    and the layout of the town to round up
    the flames and the demon together!
[13:37] ---
    Let's get started!
[13:52] ---
    This is Yamazaki! Target point reached!
[13:55] ---
    This is Yamamoto! In position!
[13:57] ---
    Moritani here! Target point reached!
[13:59] ---
    This is 2nd Platoon Leader Taguchi!
    Target point reached!
[14:03] ---
    This is 5th Platoon Leader Tokuyama!
    We've all reached our target points, too!
[14:07] ---
    Copy!
[14:08] ---
    The platoons from the 2nd
    and 5th are all in position.
[14:11] ---
    Good. Hinawa, you've got the demon!
[14:14] ---
    Roger!
[14:20] ---
    Come on!
[14:24] ---
    Hey, are you sure I don't
    have to do anything yet?
[14:28] ---
    Lieutenant Karim, we're saving you
    for the finishing touch.
[14:32] ---
    The flames all over town are
    already burning out of control.
[14:35] ---
    If we could gather those flames into one place
    and extinguish them all at once...
[14:40] ---
    It's easy to say the words,
    but how do we do that?
[14:44] ---
    We have a good number of
    second generations on site
[14:46] ---
    who are able to manipulate flames.
    We're going to take their power,
[14:49] ---
    and combine it with this town's wind power.
[14:52] ---
    Wind?
[14:54] ---
    Towns have several different kinds of wind.
[14:57] ---
    This town specifically has...
[14:59] ---
    ...the kind of valley winds that
    blow between high-rise buildings...
[15:04] ---
    ...and the kind of street winds
    that blow along main roads.
[15:07] ---
    The place where these two
    kinds of wind come together...
[15:11] ---
    ...is here, in the central square.
[15:13] ---
    It's the terminal point of this town
[15:15] ---
    where winds blow in from both directions
    and combine together.
[15:18] ---
    Uh-huh...
[15:19] ---
    By manipulating the flames
    from all over into the air currents,
[15:23] ---
    we can combine their abilities and the wind
[15:25] ---
    to concentrate all the flames together.
[15:28] ---
    And then, the flames within the
    air currents will ultimately end up...
[15:34] ---
    ...in the central square,
    where Crewman Maki is waiting for them!
[15:40] ---
    Please keep back! Get back!
[15:42] ---
    Please keep back!
[15:44] ---
    Evacuate to a safe location!
[15:46] ---
    Everyone, please remain calm!
[15:48] ---
    Oh, I'm begging you...
[15:51] ---
    I was born and raised in this town!
[15:54] ---
    Leave it to us. The Special Fire Force
    will safeguard your town!
[16:03] ---
    In order to put the demon to rest,
[16:05] ---
    we create a certain phenomenon
    with those concentrated flames.
[16:09] ---
    Usually, whenever one of
    these appears, it's a disaster.
[16:13] ---
    But if Crewman Maki can keep it
    under control with her ability,
[16:15] ---
    the two winds blowing into the square
    from two directions will feed the flames,
[16:20] ---
    and create a vortex!
[16:23] ---
    The phenomenon that arises from that...
[16:32] ---
    "Firestorm"
[16:33] ---
    ...is a firestorm!
[16:35] ---
    I've read about these in fire scene reports,
    but are you serious?
[16:39] ---
    Did you actually create one?
[16:40] ---
    Just as I figured! You're amazing,
    Maki-san! Leave it to our witch!
[16:45] ---
    A flame tornado, just like Licht calculated...
[16:50] ---
    So now,
[16:52] ---
    how do we get the demon inside the tornado?
[17:00] ---
    Lieutenant Hinawa!
[17:02] ---
    This is going to be no easy task.
[17:07] ---
    C'mon, big fella!
[17:09] ---
    Ow, that's hot!
[17:14] ---
    Whoo, that was hot...
[17:16] ---
    Not again. Please don't
    get in over your head, sir.
[17:19] ---
    What do we do? The only way
    to throw him in is by force.
[17:23] ---
    Hinawa, you just keep his attention drawn.
[17:27] ---
    Vulcan, where are you?!
[17:28] ---
    Arriving now, sir!
[17:33] ---
    The Matchbox?
[17:35] ---
    What do you have in mind?
[17:37] ---
    It has that lame-brained
    fire extinguisher that Vulcan built.
[17:40] ---
    Huh? You're going to use that, sir?
[17:45] ---
    I'll be ready in no time! Setting anchors!
[17:53] ---
    I just need to keep this thing occupied
    until you're ready, then?
[17:56] ---
    I'll help you with that!
[17:58] ---
    Deploying extinguisher!
[18:02] ---
    That dimwitted extinguisher
    with the water pressure so strong,
[18:05] ---
    it also destroys the target
    being extinguished...
[18:07] ---
    Captain, take the gunner's seat!
[18:09] ---
    I-I'm going to shoot it?!
[18:12] ---
    The aim assist function will
    automatically follow the sight.
[18:14] ---
    Captain, you just have to target
    the center and push the button.
[18:19] ---
    Are you sure about this?
[18:24] ---
    Oh, this is... pretty hard...
[18:30] ---
    Go on, Captain! Now! Hit the button!
[18:36] ---
    Captain? What's the matter?
[18:38] ---
    A-All right...
[18:40] ---
    Oh, is this it?
[18:43] ---
    Come on! Now! Do it now!
[18:46] ---
    Okay, now! Shoot! Okay, now!
    Right there! Shoot! Huh?!
[18:53] ---
    Hey, Captain Obi! What are you
    waiting for?! Just shoot!
[18:56] ---
    I've never been good at these kinds of games!
[18:59] ---
    All you have to do is shoot!
[19:01] ---
    Shooting is what I have trouble with.
[19:02] ---
    Playing the games is harder than this!
[19:04] ---
    Oh, is this it?
[19:09] ---
    Ah, for the love of...!
[19:12] ---
    Hey, Vulcan! What are you doing?!
[19:14] ---
    Now it's harder than ever to aim, you know!
[19:16] ---
    I'm making it so you can shoot
    without having to aim!
[19:22] ---
    Gotcha!
[19:25] ---
    There, he's right in front of you! Now shoot!
[19:28] ---
    All right!
[19:38] ---
    The estimated wind speed inside the firestorm
    is about 60 meters per second!
[19:42] ---
    There's no way he can escape that!
[19:43] ---
    Hinawa!
[19:44] ---
    I'll take it from here, sir!
[19:53] ---
    Trajectory Control!
[19:56] ---
    This firestorm is testament to
    the bond among the Special Fire Force!
[20:03] ---
    Come on, 8th, pull this off.
[20:08] ---
    Lieutenant Hinawa uses
    the flames of the firestorm
[20:11] ---
    as fuel to accelerate
    the velocity of the projectile.
[20:14] ---
    The firestorm itself becomes like
    the barrel of a giant railgun!
[20:27] ---
    From here on out, the Special Fire Force
    will become one.
[20:41] ---
    Lieutenant Karim, that's all I can do!
[20:45] ---
    Well done! Let me take it from here!
[20:56] ---
    That was Lieutenant Karim!
[20:58] ---
    He stopped that huge fire in an instant!
[21:06] ---
    I think I just made enough ice
    to last a lifetime.
[21:09] ---
    The 7th's captain and lieutenant
[21:12] ---
    put to rest one of those demons
    by themselves? Those guys are beasts.
[21:18] ---
    It's over.
[21:21] ---
    That one was on the scale of
    the Great Fire two years ago,
[21:24] ---
    and he kept the damage down to a minimum.
[21:26] ---
    Incredible. That's Captain Obi for you.
[21:31] ---
    So this is the strength of the 8th.
[21:36] ---
    You did well, Maki.
[21:38] ---
    Thank you very much, sir.
[21:40] ---
    How fantastic to see a firestorm this close up!
[21:44] ---
    That cool breeze sure feels good.
[21:47] ---
    Fire Soldiers from companies
    other than the 8th also acted on this.
[21:50] ---
    Am I ever glad for that.
[21:53] ---
    That just leaves the Evangelist's people.
[21:57] ---
    Shinra, Arthur, it's up to you.
[22:02] ---
    What is that pillar of ice?
[22:05] ---
    What exactly is happening?
[22:09] ---
    It's scary!
[22:11] ---
    You're the first person to ever
    deal any damage to me.
[22:18] ---
    I'm gonna lay another one on you!
