[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...
[00:30] ---
    Yes. The evangelism is proceeding smoothly.
[00:34] ---
    There may be some slight obstacles,
    but it will not be a problem.
[00:38] ---
    Infernalization will move
    forward without a hitch.
[00:43] ---
    Very well then, Evangelist...
[00:46] ---
    Látom.
[00:56] ---
    The core remains of sample "Infernal A"
[01:00] ---
    showed different characteristics
    compared to those of "Infernal B."
[01:04] ---
    After analyzing them, soot and DNA
    from a creature other than the victim
[01:07] ---
    were identified in the core.
[01:09] ---
    You concluded that it was insect genetic data.
[01:15] ---
    Those are conclusive experimental results,
    arrived at through my research.
[01:20] ---
    I've investigated many Infernals,
[01:22] ---
    and the samples that I believe
    were artificially created
[01:25] ---
    all had the same thing in common.
[01:27] ---
    All of the samples had traces
    of some kind of creature
[01:30] ---
    entering the core from the outside.
[01:35] ---
    Insects.
[01:37] ---
    "Episode 8:
    Infernal Insects"
[01:46] ---
    The darkness is illuminated
[01:47] ---
    The days we've grown accustomed
    to walking are weeded out
[01:51] ---
    My dream might be to make a stable living
[01:54] ---
    but I'll moan over the lack of stimulation
[01:56] ---
    The end is illuminated
[01:58] ---
    Where are the streets we're
    accustomed to walking?
[02:01] ---
    Time can sometimes be irksome,
[02:04] ---
    but we're enveloped in warmth
[02:07] ---
    Flames rise to show us the way
[02:11] ---
    reminding us of a gentle melody
[02:18] ---
    There is no eternity, none at all, they say
[02:24] ---
    I just smile, thinking that's fine with me
[02:29] ---
    If we shine, someday, our light will go out
[02:33] ---
    We'll keep on walking until the day
[02:39] ---
    the fire of our lives gets doused
[02:44] ---
    Playthings that make sounds
[02:47] ---
    and magic that chases pain away
[02:50] ---
    are all precious treasures to me
[02:55] ---
    There is no eternity, none at all, they say
[02:59] ---
    We'll keep on walking until the day
[03:05] ---
    the fire of our lives gets doused
[03:20] ---
    It's been five days since we joined the 1st.
[03:25] ---
    Our investigation is to last a month.
[03:28] ---
    We have to find leads on artificial
    Infernals within that month.
[03:35] ---
    Whoa, Lieutenant, what are you doing?
[03:38] ---
    Are you all right? Any problems?
    Is Arthur doing all right?
[03:43] ---
    I told you, we're fine, sir!
    Please don't come by every morning.
[03:50] ---
    My, if it isn't the lieutenant from the 8th.
[03:53] ---
    Hard at work again today, I see.
[03:55] ---
    Hello.
[03:56] ---
    He certainly is concerned
    about his men, isn't he?
[03:59] ---
    He really is.
[04:00] ---
    Jeez, this is getting
    embarrassing! Please leave!
[04:03] ---
    Hmm? What's come over you all of a sudden?
[04:06] ---
    You should check in with the captain
    more often. He's concerned.
[04:10] ---
    Yes, all right.
[04:14] ---
    Shoo! Shoo!
[04:17] ---
    Yikes, Captain Hibana is here, too.
[04:22] ---
    They have us, here from other
    companies, prowling around,
[04:25] ---
    and they aren't acting like they're on guard.
[04:27] ---
    At the 5th, with all of Haijima's trade secrets,
[04:30] ---
    you'd never see everyone behaving this openly.
[04:33] ---
    According to my investigation,
    artificial Infernals appear primarily
[04:37] ---
    in security zones,
    where only Fire Soldiers can enter,
[04:39] ---
    and in fire sites that have been closed off.
[04:42] ---
    Much as it disturbs me,
[04:44] ---
    chances are high that a
    Special Fire Soldier is the culprit.
[04:49] ---
    But is the culprit here at the 1st...?
[05:00] ---
    U-Um, why did all of you become Fire Soldiers?
[05:05] ---
    Why, to be a hero, protecting everyone
    from human combustion and Infernals!
[05:11] ---
    It's only natural that a knight
    would fight on behalf of the weak.
[05:17] ---
    Well, I'm a third generation, and as a
    Fire Soldier, I'd be in with the ladies.
[05:22] ---
    You're all so great.
[05:25] ---
    I can't really use my pyrokinesis very well.
[05:28] ---
    Nor do I have any grand
    objective like the rest of you.
[05:31] ---
    Forget about the objective.
[05:34] ---
    As long as we end up helping
    others, that's enough, isn't it?
[05:37] ---
    Yeah, I guess so. Thanks, Shinra-kun.
[05:43] ---
    How long are you going to sit around eating?!
    Time for morning assembly!
[05:46] ---
    Everyone, hurry back to
    your appointed stations and--
[05:51] ---
    --Sorry. I was reaching for
    the mayonnaise, and you...
    --What the hell are you doing, sicko?!
[05:54] ---
    Whoa, hey!
[05:58] ---
    You jerk! You stay away from me-ow!
[06:01] ---
    Could you knock off your lucky lechery?
[06:07] ---
    Is that morning assembly?
[06:09] ---
    That's the alarm! An Infernal has appeared!
[06:12] ---
    Juggernaut, report to Lieutenant Hoshimiya!
[06:14] ---
    Kishiri, Lieutenant Li!
[06:15] ---
    You two from the 8th, report to Lieutenant Flam!
[06:35] ---
    There are five victims who Infernalized.
[06:38] ---
    This appears to be another multiple incident.
[06:41] ---
    Nozaka Squad, make sure
    the civilians are all evacuated.
[06:43] ---
    Matsuda Squad, you'll gather information
    and report it to everyone.
[06:47] ---
    The rest of us will look for the Infernals.
[06:50] ---
    Let's put them to rest quickly!
[06:51] ---
    --Yes, sir!
    --Yes, sir!
[06:53] ---
    Awesome. This is one swift,
    take-charge company.
[06:59] ---
    You two from the 8th,
    stand by here with Matsuda Squad.
[07:02] ---
    But we can help, too!
[07:03] ---
    Our leadership structure would be
    thrown off by newcomers.
[07:07] ---
    Keep on keeping yourselves here.
[07:32] ---
    Are you all right, sir?
[07:41] ---
    What happened?
[07:51] ---
    There they are!
[07:52] ---
    After them!
[07:53] ---
    What about the Infernal?
[07:57] ---
    Right now, we'll just have
    to let the 1st handle him.
[08:04] ---
    You'll pay for this.
[08:05] ---
    Fire Soldiers are supposed to protect citizens!
[08:09] ---
    Don't think that you can escape my feet!
[08:15] ---
    Shinra!
[08:16] ---
    What are you doing? I thought
    I ordered you to stand down.
[08:24] ---
    What have you been doing back here?
[08:27] ---
    I will--
[08:29] ---
    --We don't get to Shinjuku
    very much, so we got lost.
    --What the hell are you doing...?
[08:38] ---
    Lieutenant Rekka,
    laying to rest has been completed.
[08:42] ---
    Tamaki, good work.
[08:49] ---
    All right, we're heading back.
[08:56] ---
    Hey, why did you stop me?
[09:10] ---
    Aren't those lieutenants
    our artificial Infernal suspects?
[09:14] ---
    We still don't know who the enemy is,
    and who our allies are.
[09:21] ---
    We could have been eliminated
    right there on the spot.
[09:24] ---
    Then what are you planning to do?
    You saw what happened.
[09:28] ---
    Yeah. I definitely saw it.
[09:31] ---
    He pressed a bottle containing an
    insect against that civilian's back.
[09:34] ---
    Immediately afterward...
[09:36] ---
    ...they Infernalized.
[09:38] ---
    This is the worst. How can a
    Fire Soldier be creating Infernals?
[09:42] ---
    The person you saw wearing those robes
[09:45] ---
    was only one of three lieutenants from the 1st.
[09:48] ---
    We'll have to start by
    investigating Karim and Rekka.
[09:51] ---
    You sure are enthusiastic.
    These guys are formidable foes.
[09:55] ---
    Of course I am. I don't care
    who they are, they have to pay.
[10:02] ---
    First thing we check is Karim's room.
[10:04] ---
    He's not there right now?
[10:06] ---
    I told Juggernaut to come up with
    some excuse to keep him occupied.
[10:10] ---
    Have you told him about our mission?
[10:12] ---
    No.
[10:13] ---
    He seems to have taken a liking to Tamaki,
[10:17] ---
    and when I told him I'd get her number for him,
[10:19] ---
    he was only too happy to cooperate.
[10:22] ---
    Never mind him, though,
    why are you dressed like that?
[10:26] ---
    I made a job change, from knight to assassin.
[10:33] ---
    After carrying on about being
    a knight for so long, you just...?
[10:38] ---
    I'm a knight.
[10:42] ---
    "Karim Flam" "Out"
[10:48] ---
    Hey!
[10:49] ---
    Mini Excalibur. I made it
    from a sheet of plastic,
[10:53] ---
    so it can only be used once.
[10:56] ---
    You dumbass! This will leave
    evidence that someone broke in!
[10:59] ---
    That doesn't sound like you.
[11:02] ---
    What, did you lose your nerve
    after Burns beat you, you wuss?
[11:05] ---
    Huh?
[11:06] ---
    If solving the mystery of human
    combustion could be done cleanly,
[11:10] ---
    it would have been solved a long time ago.
[11:14] ---
    Hmph, say what you want,
    but you're not gonna solve it.
[11:40] ---
    That's it!
[11:43] ---
    You can make an Infernal with one of these?
[11:46] ---
    That clinches it. Karim Flam is our culprit.
[11:54] ---
    I left that insect-like insect there on purpose.
[11:58] ---
    Your behavior in the back alley was
    abnormal, so I thought I'd test you.
[12:05] ---
    Looks like the 8th is here pursuing
    that insect-like insect, too.
[12:09] ---
    What are you talking about?
[12:11] ---
    I'm out to get the owner of that insect, too.
[12:14] ---
    Oh, so you're on our side.
[12:16] ---
    How can we trust you?
[12:18] ---
    You saw the culprit, right? The fact that
    you narrowed your suspicions on me
[12:23] ---
    means they were wearing robes like this.
[12:28] ---
    Isn't that right?
[12:30] ---
    There was one other man there at
    that moment wearing robes like mine.
[12:36] ---
    Rekka Hoshimiya.
[12:41] ---
    There was an incident two months ago
[12:42] ---
    where a group of children collectively
    caught fire. It was far too unnatural.
[12:47] ---
    It was then that I found the insect.
[12:51] ---
    Children were burned?
[12:58] ---
    I got a five-star from the gacha machine.
[13:00] ---
    Oh, yeah! No fair!
[13:02] ---
    Hey, you two...
[13:05] ---
    Fires sure are scary, huh?
[13:07] ---
    You heard about that incident where
    children your age burned up, right?
[13:12] ---
    There's a way to make sure
    the flames don't get you.
[13:17] ---
    Why don't you come with me?
[13:36] ---
    What are you doing?
[13:50] ---
    "No trespassing"
[13:54] ---
    Okay, let's go!
[13:58] ---
    Tamaki, thanks for rounding them up.
[14:01] ---
    I finally found a sacred prayer
    to protect against Infernalization.
[14:06] ---
    If we can save the children from
    the flame threat, I can die happy!
[14:11] ---
    Lieutenant...
[14:14] ---
    I want to save even more,
    but I'm much too wretched! Curses!
[14:19] ---
    Um, Father, will they really
    not become Infernals?
[14:25] ---
    Yes! But you haven't told anyone,
    because we don't want squabbling, right?
[14:29] ---
    Yu-kun at my cram school burned up.
    I don't want that to happen.
[14:33] ---
    If I do what you say,
    I won't ever burn up, right?
[14:36] ---
    Of course you won't.
[14:39] ---
    Everyone, now that I'm here,
    everything will be all right.
[14:43] ---
    You'll be mighty people,
    who can't be beaten by flames!
[14:49] ---
    Tamaki, would you mind stepping outside?
    I'd like to focus on the prayer.
[14:54] ---
    Huh?
[14:56] ---
    Thanks for all the help you've been.
[14:58] ---
    I'd like to see the prayer, too, sir.
[15:01] ---
    I would do anything for you, Lieutenant Rekka.
[15:05] ---
    My stars!
[15:08] ---
    Thank you, Tamaki!
[15:10] ---
    You're really making too much of it, sir...
[15:13] ---
    Tamaki! I'm so grateful!
[15:19] ---
    All righty!
[15:26] ---
    Now...
[15:27] ---
    ...to find someone suitable for the
    pilot light. You all have been chosen.
[15:32] ---
    W-We've changed our minds!
[15:36] ---
    We can't have that. You would
    destroy your own child's future?
[15:40] ---
    What a poor mother you are.
[15:46] ---
    Mom...
[15:53] ---
    Return to the great flame of fire.
[16:04] ---
    You're going to go look for Rekka,
    right? We're coming with you.
[16:09] ---
    This is the 1st's problem.
    You two keep out of it.
[16:13] ---
    We are currently assigned to Karim Squad, sir.
[16:16] ---
    Then your squad's lieutenant is
    ordering you to stay out of this.
[16:20] ---
    We have no intention of following that order.
    We're not even formal members.
[16:30] ---
    Hmph, so you're like men who are
    my men, but aren't my men, then?
[16:35] ---
    How freeing for you.
[16:38] ---
    Feel free to feel free, then.
[16:45] ---
    Well, that didn't work. I just wish there
    was someone here who was suitable.
[16:51] ---
    Stop crying! You won't ever get strong that way!
[16:55] ---
    You can't be afraid of the flames!
    You want to get stronger!
[16:59] ---
    Right? Isn't that what you want?
[17:06] ---
    Lieutenant Rekka, what on earth...?
[17:10] ---
    I was going to let you live to take the blame,
[17:12] ---
    so I must not have squeezed hard enough.
[17:14] ---
    Huh? What do you mean, sir?
[17:17] ---
    You are the only one who can accept
    my passion and fervor, Tamaki!
[17:23] ---
    This isn't happening, right?
[17:25] ---
    Lieutenant Rekka, are you the one
    who has been creating Infernals?
[17:30] ---
    I respected you so much, sir!
[17:35] ---
    You respect me, don't you?
[17:37] ---
    Or do you let your feelings
    change as easily as that?!
[17:44] ---
    I'm not giving up! No matter how many
    innocent children must be sacrificed,
[17:49] ---
    I won't give up! Not ever!
[17:52] ---
    I will create Infernals for the Evangelist,
[17:55] ---
    until the day when I find someone
    suitable for the pilot light!
[18:02] ---
    You were a hot-blooded guy who was awkward
[18:04] ---
    but never let it get you down.
    I always found that to be cool about you.
[18:11] ---
    But you were just a hot-blooded
    son of a bitch, weren't you?!
[18:16] ---
    My stars!
[18:21] ---
    Lie there and be quiet.
[18:27] ---
    Now, for the pilot light...
[18:30] ---
    --No! Stop! No!
[18:32] ---
    --Tak-kun!
    --No! Stop! No!
[18:33] ---
    Here you go, Tak-kun. It's all right.
[18:38] ---
    Tak-kun!
[18:39] ---
    Tak-kun!
[18:54] ---
    Must be my imagination...
[18:58] ---
    Hang in there! I know you can accept the flames!
[19:03] ---
    Stop...!
[19:04] ---
    Hang in there, Tak-kun! Fight!
[19:07] ---
    Fight, Tak-kun!
[19:21] ---
    He isn't becoming an Infernal?
[19:28] ---
    He's compatible.
[19:30] ---
    I did it! I finally found someone
    compatible for the pilot light!
[19:35] ---
    There are still four of you children left.
[19:37] ---
    You haven't been spared yet,
[19:39] ---
    so take on the pilot light and
    earn victory for tomorrow!
[19:45] ---
    Charge it up, charge it up, fight!
    Don't let it beat you! Fire!
[19:52] ---
    Please... stop, already...
    Somebody... I'm begging you...
[20:01] ---
    Somebody help!
[20:10] ---
    What are you doing, Tamaki?
[20:15] ---
    I thought you were an outstanding,
    obedient subordinate!
[20:23] ---
    What are you doing, Tamaki?!
[20:26] ---
    There are children watching!
    You shouldn't be like this!
[20:30] ---
    The children are trying so hard!
[20:34] ---
    You were supposed to
    take the fall for this crime!
[20:37] ---
    What's become of you, Tamaki?!
[20:39] ---
    I used to like you.
[20:40] ---
    I figured you were the only one who could do it!
[20:45] ---
    I'm going to have to
    change the plan and kill you.
[20:48] ---
    The hot-blooded, gentle lieutenant...
[20:50] ---
    I'll make it look like you
    burned yourself to death!
[20:55] ---
    Curses! I had faith that you could
    do this! This is hard on me, too!
[21:04] ---
    My fist is weeping over this!
[21:07] ---
    I will stand by and see your end through!
[21:11] ---
    You're going to die in my place, Tamaki!
[21:15] ---
    --Stop, Lieutenant Rekka...
[21:16] ---
    --I looked up to you.
    --Stop, Lieutenant Rekka...
[21:20] ---
    Help me...
[21:54] ---
    Are you okay, Tamaki?
[22:18] ---
    "To be continued"
[22:22] ---
    You can toil your way through humorless days
[22:25] ---
    and curse the unwavering present,
[22:28] ---
    but words that simply hang in the air
[22:32] ---
    are not enough to save you
[22:47] ---
    We've been walking shoulder-to-shoulder
[22:51] ---
    between sights we never reach
[22:54] ---
    and pain that brings no warmth
[22:57] ---
    to make it to a faraway place
[23:01] ---
    Given the hope that you speak of
[23:04] ---
    or the ideals that you dream of
[23:08] ---
    I'll find a way to show you love,
    however cold you may be
[23:13] ---
    You can toil your way through humorless days
[23:17] ---
    and curse the unwavering present,
[23:20] ---
    but words that simply hang in the air
[23:23] ---
    are not enough to save you
[23:26] ---
    You can cry out timidly
[23:29] ---
    but that changes when the nights grow fevered
[23:32] ---
    Even if we let go of each other's hands,
[23:36] ---
    I hope we can still walk together again
[23:39] ---
    I'll refrain from saying goodbye
[23:42] ---
    to ensure that we can meet again somewhere
[23:51] ---
    "Next time"
