[00:26] ---
    You may go.
[00:27] ---
    May the goddess Kunlun be
    with you and protect you.
[00:34] ---
    It is our hope
[00:35] ---
    that you encounter he who
    shall guide your life,
[00:38] ---
    your fated partner...
[00:41] ---
    ...o Rana!
[00:43] ---
    Yes...
[00:45] ---
    ...Patriarch.
[00:59] ---
    If coming to a halt isn’t allowed
[01:02] ---
    Then let's keep walking like this
[01:04] ---
    "I want you to remember
    that you're not alone"

[01:10] ---
    Even if these emotions that can't be shaken
[01:13] ---
    Are laughed at as weakness,
[01:16] ---
    I don't care. I want to
    tell you straightforwardly

[01:21] ---
    Keep the faith
[01:22] ---
    Because I made a promise
[01:32] ---
    To live as I am
[01:41] ---
    Inside that gale
[01:44] ---
    Oh, true color
[01:47] ---
    So that clear sky
[01:50] ---
    Can be freely repainted in color
[01:56] ---
    Oh, true color
[01:58] ---
    There is no distinct scenery
[02:02] ---
    Just don't forget
[02:07] ---
    Every happy day
[02:23] ---
    The Nova are extra-dimensional entities.
[02:25] ---
    As you know, when they materialize
    from that other dimension,
[02:30] ---
    all living things within a certain
    field are forcibly restrained.
[02:34] ---
    In other words, a Freezing area results.
[02:40] ---
    The job of a Limiter
[02:43] ---
    is to neutralize the Nova's Freezing
[02:46] ---
    and create a space in which
    the Pandora can operate.
[02:50] ---
    Freezing, huh?
[02:56] ---
    Casting an omnidirectional
    Freezing is impossible!
[02:59] ---
    He can use the same power as the Nova?!
[03:09] ---
    I can't help but wonder!
[03:11] ---
    That's right!
[03:13] ---
    No way!
[03:15] ---
    What? You don't know?!
[03:18] ---
    Right. Not a clue.
[03:20] ---
    Not a clue? So...
[03:22] ---
    That's just weird, isn't it?
[03:24] ---
    You being able to do that even though
    you haven't received baptism.
[03:28] ---
    Yes, but still...
[03:30] ---
    I was determined, I had to protect
    Satellizer, but that's it.
[03:35] ---
    I don't get it either.
[03:39] ---
    Had to protect her, huh?
[03:42] ---
    Well? What did Satellizer say?
[03:45] ---
    Nothing, really.
[03:46] ---
    I haven't seen her at all since then.
[03:48] ---
    Huh?!
[03:49] ---
    You put your life on the line to help her,
[03:51] ---
    and she hasn't thanked you?!
[03:54] ---
    Uh, yeah.
[03:55] ---
    See?
[03:56] ---
    You get it now, right?
[03:58] ---
    There's nothing good about her.
[04:01] ---
    Well, she is beautiful,
[04:03] ---
    and I understand how you could get sucked
    in and start dreaming there for a bit...
[04:08] ---
    S-Sucked in?
[04:10] ---
    But beautiful flowers have thorns.
[04:13] ---
    That's right.
[04:14] ---
    Extremely poisonous thorns at that.
[04:24] ---
    Uh, g-good afternoon, Ma'am.
[04:26] ---
    W-We were just discussing your beauty...
[04:30] ---
    That's right! We were talking
    about how the boys in our class
[04:35] ---
    are all so smitten!
[04:36] ---
    Kazuya... Aoi.
[04:39] ---
    Ma'am!
[04:42] ---
    I wish to speak with you.
[04:44] ---
    Come with me.
[04:47] ---
    Yes, Ma'am!
[04:51] ---
    What's all that about?
[04:53] ---
    Beats me...
[04:58] ---
    Um, Ma'am?
[05:19] ---
    I knew it...
[05:21] ---
    I knew it. You're all right, it seems.
[05:25] ---
    Even if you touch me...
[05:27] ---
    it doesn't feel bad.
[05:30] ---
    That's the first time this has happened.
[05:36] ---
    For me, too!
[05:39] ---
    Since the first time I met you, I've...
[05:45] ---
    It's as if you were...
[05:51] ---
    This is the first time I've felt this.
[05:54] ---
    I don't know how to explain it.
[05:58] ---
    You can cast Freezings, can't you?
[06:02] ---
    Even without the Ereinbar Set,
[06:04] ---
    you can cast Freezings, can't you?
[06:06] ---
    You could say that, but...
[06:09] ---
    ...I've tried a few times since then,
[06:12] ---
    and couldn't do it at all.
[06:16] ---
    I'll do it.
[06:17] ---
    Ma'am?
[06:18] ---
    I... I'll make you my Limiter!
[06:24] ---
    R-Really?
[06:27] ---
    But I can't give you a baptism.
[06:30] ---
    If you don't mind that, then...
[06:34] ---
    Of course!
[06:37] ---
    Thank you,
[06:39] ---
    K-Kazuya.
[06:42] ---
    Ma'am!
[06:47] ---
    This is West Genetics?
[06:51] ---
    Wow!
[06:53] ---
    How wonderful it is!
[06:55] ---
    Here, in this land, I shall surely find...
[06:59] ---
    ...the man of my destiny!
[07:06] ---
    A promise just between us, huh?
[07:11] ---
    Would you like some?
[07:13] ---
    Oh, okay.
[07:16] ---
    Don't tell me... she got these for me.
[07:20] ---
    Still, this is too many...
[07:23] ---
    Kazuya.
[07:24] ---
    Ah! I'll eat them!
[07:27] ---
    Thank you very much.
[07:29] ---
    You... Are you free tonight?
[07:33] ---
    Yes. I am, but...
[07:36] ---
    Then, tonight...
[07:39] ---
    Tonight?
[07:42] ---
    Never mind.
[07:44] ---
    It's no good!
[07:47] ---
    T-Tonight... I want you to come to my room!
[07:51] ---
    To your room?
[07:53] ---
    Do you understand?
[07:55] ---
    Yes, Ma'am. I understand.
[07:59] ---
    I'm glad she invited me to her room, but...
[08:03] ---
    ...what is it that's made her that nervous?
[08:06] ---
    "Classrooms"
[08:08] ---
    How many hours have I been walking already?
[08:17] ---
    I wonder who she is.
[08:18] ---
    I don't recognize that clothing.
[08:24] ---
    I finally found somebody else!
[08:28] ---
    Um...
[08:30] ---
    Oh, you're a transfer student?
[08:33] ---
    That's why she's not
    wearing a school uniform.

[08:35] ---
    This place is too big!
[08:38] ---
    I thought I was doomed to wander forever.
[08:43] ---
    You exaggerate...
[08:45] ---
    That's the principal's office.
[08:47] ---
    Oh! Why, thank you!
[08:51] ---
    How kind of you.
[08:52] ---
    You are a very nice man, aren't you?
[08:55] ---
    No, uh... You're welcome.
[08:59] ---
    I give thanks to the goddess Kunlun
    that I met someone like you.
[09:05] ---
    See you!
[09:06] ---
    Kunlun?
[09:07] ---
    Ah! It's almost time for our meeting.
[09:11] ---
    What are you all flustered about?
[09:14] ---
    What?!
[09:16] ---
    The Untouchable Queen did?!
[09:18] ---
    She wants to pair with you
    without doing a baptism?!
[09:21] ---
    Yes.
[09:22] ---
    Huh?!
[09:23] ---
    Without the Stigmata, the proof
    of your bond, how are you a pair?!
[09:27] ---
    That kind of vague relationship is setting
    you up to be used for your power!
[09:32] ---
    I think so, too.
[09:34] ---
    If she doesn't intend to make a proper pair,
[09:36] ---
    you should just refuse.
[09:40] ---
    You've got it wrong!
[09:42] ---
    She invited me to go to her room,
[09:43] ---
    and I'm on my way now.
[09:46] ---
    I-Invited?!
[09:48] ---
    You mean, it's a room entry?
[09:51] ---
    What's that?
[09:52] ---
    His first room entry!
[09:53] ---
    When a Pandora chooses her Limiter,
[09:55] ---
    she always invites him to her room.
[09:57] ---
    It's a lovely tradition.
[09:58] ---
    Tradition?
[09:59] ---
    Yes!
[10:01] ---
    To spend time alone together and
    make the bonds between you stronger!
[10:05] ---
    It's a kind of care toward
    the "younger brother."
[10:08] ---
    Some special attention, if you will.
[10:10] ---
    I stayed in Ganessa's room
    for my first room entry.
[10:16] ---
    But at the time, I was drunk...
[10:19] ---
    I don't remember anything after that.
[10:21] ---
    This guy is pitiful.
[10:23] ---
    Still, for the Untouchable
    Queen to honor room entry...
[10:29] ---
    Don't you think it's bad for you
    to be used, without even a baptism?
[10:34] ---
    You two...
[10:38] ---
    T-Tonight... I want you to come to my room!
[10:42] ---
    She doesn't seem the type to
    uphold that kind of tradition...

[10:47] ---
    Is she forcing herself to, for me?
[10:49] ---
    Maybe he'd like this one.
[10:51] ---
    No, this one might be better.
[10:56] ---
    Please make me your Limiter!
[11:00] ---
    Won't you stop and think
    about this more calmly?
[11:03] ---
    Yeah, that's right. There's still time.
[11:05] ---
    Give it a rest.
[11:07] ---
    I'm going now. See you.
[11:15] ---
    Watch yourself, first-year.
[11:17] ---
    I-I'm sorry. Excuse me.
[11:21] ---
    Hold on there.
[11:22] ---
    Um, I'm in a hurry.
[11:25] ---
    It's you, isn't it?
[11:26] ---
    The strange first-year who wants
    to be Satellizer's Limiter.
[11:30] ---
    Ah. This is who they're talking about?
[11:33] ---
    Huh, is that so?
[11:35] ---
    Well? Her Highness has consented
    to be paired with you?
[11:40] ---
    No!
[11:41] ---
    Don't say it, Kazuya!
[11:43] ---
    Yes. I suppose.
[11:45] ---
    He said it.
[11:47] ---
    Well, well. That's just marvelous.
[11:50] ---
    Say, now that you're here...
[11:52] ---
    ...what do you say we help you celebrate?
[11:57] ---
    You're tired after your long journey, yes?
[12:00] ---
    Please rest easy tonight.
[12:03] ---
    If there's anything at all about
    school life you don't understand,
[12:06] ---
    just ask me, okay?
[12:09] ---
    All right! Thank you!
[12:11] ---
    As representative of West
    Genetics, I extend my gratitude
[12:16] ---
    toward your patriarch for
    deciding to send you here...
[12:21] ---
    ...Rana Linchen.
[12:33] ---
    Please wait!
[12:35] ---
    What's that?
[12:36] ---
    Just what do you plan to do with him?
[12:38] ---
    So, a first-year thinks she can mouth
    off about what second-years do?
[12:42] ---
    But he doesn't want this...
[12:44] ---
    Oh, my. I don't think that's the case at all!
[12:50] ---
    Just who are you?!
[12:52] ---
    What's that? You don't know about us?
[12:56] ---
    I'm Audrey Duval, known as
    the Slice-and-Dice Maiden.
[13:01] ---
    And I'm "Intoxicating
    Bondage," Aika Takeuchi.
[13:06] ---
    And I'm "Twin Fang" Tris
    McKenzie. Remember that.
[13:12] ---
    Those girls lost to
    Satellizer in the Carnival.
[13:19] ---
    So that's why you--
[13:25] ---
    What are you doing?
[13:26] ---
    It's obvious, of course...
[13:28] ---
    Providing discipline. Discipline!
[13:37] ---
    Disciplining first-years who don't
    properly respect their seniors
[13:41] ---
    is a responsibility of us second-years.
[13:44] ---
    How cruel!
[13:45] ---
    Now it's your turn.
[13:48] ---
    I'll play with you.
[13:49] ---
    You may be our seniors, but...
[13:52] ---
    ...there's no way I can back down from this!
[13:56] ---
    Bitch...
[13:57] ---
    Hiiragi! Stop!
[13:59] ---
    Hiiragi!
[14:01] ---
    I swear...
[14:02] ---
    You truly have disrespected us.
[14:05] ---
    Yeah. Instead of just disciplined...
[14:08] ---
    ...this one needs to be finished off!
[14:20] ---
    Idiot. You're way too slow.
[14:27] ---
    You stupid first-year!
[14:35] ---
    Hiiragi...
[14:37] ---
    Hiiragi... Hiiragi!!
[14:41] ---
    Gotta... get a teacher!
[14:43] ---
    Oh, dear. Where are you going?
[14:45] ---
    Snitching on others isn't something men do.
[14:50] ---
    I'm going to thoroughly break
    you in, you bad little boy.
[14:56] ---
    Not break in-- discipline, you mean.
[14:58] ---
    Well, whichever.
[15:01] ---
    In the end, it's all the same thing.
[15:08] ---
    How strange!
[15:10] ---
    No matter how much time passes, I
    cannot find the girls' dormitory.
[15:21] ---
    How's that, boy?
[15:23] ---
    Do you like how your big sis grinds you?
[15:26] ---
    Oh, dear. There goes
    Takeuchi's bad habit again.
[15:31] ---
    Stop this!
[15:34] ---
    Hmph! Shut up, first-year.
[15:38] ---
    Honestly. Hopeless, the lot of them.
[15:43] ---
    Stop it.
[15:48] ---
    Stop it.
[15:50] ---
    You all, be sure not to go too...
[15:51] ---
    Stop it.
[15:53] ---
    Did you just say something?
[15:56] ---
    I'm telling you... to stop it.
[15:59] ---
    Oh! The girls' dorm! So this is where it is!
[16:03] ---
    Who do you think you're talking--?
[16:07] ---
    Doing such terrible things to my friends...
[16:11] ---
    I won't forgive you. Never!
[16:14] ---
    I won't forgive you!
[16:19] ---
    Kunlun's Tears are vibrating.
    This sensation...!

[16:26] ---
    I-I can't move!
[16:28] ---
    This is... Don't tell me...!
[16:30] ---
    Again?
[16:34] ---
    Let go...
[16:36] ---
    ...of Arthur!
[16:46] ---
    Just who is this boy?
[16:49] ---
    This is who will be the
    Untouchable Queen's Limiter?
[16:54] ---
    That woman, with a troublesome
    partner like this?
[16:57] ---
    I don't much care for that!
[17:02] ---
    What are you doing?
[17:03] ---
    I won't kill him.
[17:05] ---
    Just carve into his body...
[17:08] ---
    ...what it means to stick your
    nose into dangerous business.
[17:11] ---
    A symbol so he'll never want this
    kind of fearful experience again!
[17:18] ---
    When did she...?
[17:19] ---
    Just what, Madam, are you
    doing to this individual?
[17:24] ---
    Who are you? Some country person?!
[17:27] ---
    I will not let you lay a hand on this person.
[17:30] ---
    Kunlun's Tears told me earlier.
[17:35] ---
    This person is my...
[17:37] ---
    What are you talking about?
[17:39] ---
    She's so strong!
[17:42] ---
    You've got guts, but you're
    up against three of us!
[17:44] ---
    Do you actually think you can win?
[17:49] ---
    Why, you...!
[17:59] ---
    You've got some nerve!
[18:12] ---
    Shall you keep fighting?
[18:16] ---
    I-Incredible!
[18:26] ---
    Yes, I'll go with this one.
[18:35] ---
    Now listen!
[18:36] ---
    How long did you plan to keep me waiting?
[18:38] ---
    Um... Sorry to bother you so late.
[18:42] ---
    How is Aoi Kazuya?
[18:44] ---
    He's been unconscious this whole time.
[18:45] ---
    He's in the recovery center now.
[18:50] ---
    Oh. This person helped Kazuya...
[18:52] ---
    How's Kazuya?
[18:53] ---
    Are you Kazuya's friend?
[18:56] ---
    He is fine.
[18:58] ---
    He will be able to see people soon,
[19:00] ---
    so we may wait here together.
[19:03] ---
    Together?
[19:05] ---
    Are you a student here?
[19:07] ---
    If by "here" you mean this academy,
[19:10] ---
    I am not yet.
[19:12] ---
    I shall transfer into
    West Genetics tomorrow.
[19:17] ---
    I am Rana Linchen.
[19:19] ---
    The pleasure is all mine!
[19:21] ---
    A transfer student?
[19:23] ---
    Um, Rana, would you come with me for a bit?
[19:27] ---
    Eh?
[19:27] ---
    Hiiragi says she wants to say "thank you."
[19:30] ---
    But Kazuya...!
[19:32] ---
    This comes first, definitely first!
[19:39] ---
    Um...
[19:40] ---
    Oh, my. What is it?
[19:42] ---
    How is Kazuya Aoi's condition?
[19:44] ---
    Huh. Concerned, are you?
[19:46] ---
    N-Not especially! I...
[19:49] ---
    Sometimes, it's as if that boy's
    body takes on a heavy burden.
[19:54] ---
    It's all right. He's just exhausted.
[19:57] ---
    It's nothing life-threatening at all.
[20:01] ---
    It's all right. Go on in.
[20:04] ---
    You came to see him, didn't you?
[20:06] ---
    Why not sit by his side?
[20:13] ---
    Kazuya Aoi...
[20:22] ---
    So you're a transfer student here?
[20:24] ---
    Our patriarch ordered me to come here
[20:27] ---
    in search of the man of my destiny.
[20:30] ---
    The man of your destiny?
[20:32] ---
    Yes!
[20:33] ---
    That is the fate of the women
    who hold Kunlun's Tears.
[20:37] ---
    These are Kunlun's Tears.
[20:40] ---
    Stigmata?!
[20:41] ---
    And six of them?
[20:43] ---
    I thought as much, seeing
    how strong you are...
[20:46] ---
    Rana, you were a Pandora, weren't you?
[20:50] ---
    Pandora? What is that?
[20:57] ---
    Is that so?
[20:59] ---
    This school is home to a great
    many who have Kunlun's Tears!
[21:04] ---
    So, by "man of your destiny,"
    you mean a Limiter, don't you?
[21:08] ---
    In that case, you're sure to find him here!
[21:12] ---
    No.
[21:13] ---
    The matter of my partner
    has already been settled.
[21:18] ---
    Kazuya Aoi.
[21:20] ---
    He is surely the man of my destiny, no other.
[21:24] ---
    That's... not a good idea.
[21:26] ---
    Rather, it's impossible.
[21:28] ---
    Why would that be?
[21:30] ---
    That person you just met in the
    hallway. Satellizer. She...
[21:38] ---
    Yes. The Untouchable Queen has
    at last let herself be touched.
[21:45] ---
    We still don't know what power
    that first-year is hiding, do we?
[21:51] ---
    More than that, I'm interested
    in this strangely dressed girl
[21:54] ---
    who burst onto the scene.
[22:03] ---
    Things look like they'll become...
[22:05] ---
    ...rather interesting.
[22:17] ---
    In a future that will break down,
    I want to protect you

[22:24] ---
    In a world of darkness, become the
    star that will illuminate tomorrow

[22:38] ---
    On lonely, anxious nights,
    even if it seems you'll lose hope

[22:41] ---
    Remember that I'll always be there
[22:45] ---
    Don't lose it, that spark that only you have
[22:48] ---
    Try it over and over,
    and then overcome, yeah yeah!

[22:51] ---
    Emerge from that maze in your heart
[22:55] ---
    Because surely it makes a person stronger
[23:01] ---
    One more chance
[23:05] ---
    With you, I want to find a
    future that gives off light

[23:12] ---
    O tears that spill forth,
    become the wind that will dry them

[23:19] ---
    That's right, none of us can live alone
[23:25] ---
    Stand up for you
[23:26] ---
    All of us, break free of
    the darkness of solitude

[23:31] ---
    Don't look back again
[23:40] ---
    If I win this match...
[23:42] ---
    Please let me have a little fun.
[23:42] ---
    ...you shall remove yourself from Kazuya!
[23:44] ---
    Never again...
[23:47] ---
    Next time: "Machination."
[23:50] ---
    "Watch again next time!"
