[00:00] Meep
    Okay, time for Hide-and-God-Seek!
    Let the games begin!
[00:04] All
    Now, hang on a second!
[00:12] Captain
    Asta!
[00:13] Asta
    Right! Konoha, Kyrgis! Hurry!
[00:16] Konoha
    Y-Yes, ma'am!
[00:17] Kyrgis
    Activating now!
[00:26] Leshea
    You're not going to use your Arise, Fay?
[00:28] Fay
    It just prevents me from dying.
[00:31] Leshea
    Ah...
[00:32] Fay
    Get out of here, Leshea!
[00:35] Fay
    It's dangerous he—
[00:41] Leshea
    What?
[00:43] Fay
    I guess you really are a former god.
[00:45] Leshea
    This isn't even 100% of my strength.
[00:47] Leshea
    I can't use all of my god powers.
[00:55] Leshea
    I guess you can be kinda cute sometimes.
[00:58] Leshea
    Did you really just get
    worried for me just now?

[01:16] Fay
    Wait, I didn't even agree to pairing up with you.
[01:19] Fay
    Huh?
[01:20] Fay
    Wait, this is Elements, isn't it?
[01:23] Fay
    It looks just like our city...
[01:26] Leshea
    It probably holds some
    meaning for the god here.
[01:29] Leshea
    There are plenty of gods I don't know about.
[01:32] Leshea
    Hey, over there.
[01:34] Captain
    We don't know what's going to happen...
[01:37] Asta
    Fay?!
[01:38] Asta
    What happened? I heard that you
    were on a leave of absence.
[01:41] Fay
    Oh, hey, Asta.
[01:43] Fay
    It's been a while. Actually, I just
    came back and got dragged here.
[01:48] Leshea
    Pleasure to work with all of you.
[01:50] Asta
    Th-The dragon god?!
[01:51] Captain
    L-Lady Leoleshea?! Wh-Wh-Wh-What
    are you doing here?!
[01:55] Leshea
    I'm participating, too.
[01:57] Leshea
    Don't worry. I'm on the human side.
[02:00] Meep
    Well, hewwo there!
[02:04] Meep
    Welcome to my god's Elements!
[02:08] Meep
    I am the meep that lives within
    my master Titan's territory.
[02:12] Meep
    The time has come so no more participants
    will be allowed in this game.
[02:16] Captain
    Broadcast.
[02:18] Vice Captain
    Right.
[02:29] Miranda
    Humanity's mission is to
    win ten gods' games...
[02:33] Miranda
    We're counting on you, Fay.
[02:36] Meep
    Let's see... It looks like there's
    a total of eighteen of you here.
[02:40] Meep
    Then allow me to introduce this game!
[02:43] Captain
    The Giant God Titan is
    a battle game, isn't it?
[02:45] Glasses Girl Apostle
    The number of total encounters
    with the Giant God Titan
[02:48] Glasses Girl Apostle
    around the world in the
    last thirty years is 23.
[02:50] Glasses Girl Apostle
    This says the probability of us
    winning with these numbers is 14%.
[02:55] Captain
    Perfect. If this is a battle game,
[02:58] Captain
    we have Lady Leoleshea, the
    dragon god, on our side!
[03:00] Meep
    My lord Titan says he has
    grown tired of battle games.
[03:07] Meep
    The game you'll be playing is...
[03:09] Meep
    Hide-and-God-Seek!
[03:11] Glasses Girl Apostle
    I've never heard of that game...
[03:13] Fay
    Is that basically like
    hide-and-go-seek or tag?
[03:17] Fay
    We run away from Titan in
    the area of these buildings.
[03:21] Fay
    That's why it's Hide-and-God-Seek
    instead of hide-and-go-seek.
[03:23] Fay
    Right?
[03:25] Meep
    You are precisely right!
[03:27] Meep
    You cannot go past the light.
[03:30] Meep
    You will need to run away from
    Lord Titan within the square.
[03:35] Fay
    If this is going to work
    like hide-and-go-seek,
[03:37] Fay
    does that mean we lose
    once everyone's caught?
[03:39] Meep
    That's one of the conditions to lose, yes.
[03:42] Leshea
    Hm, I see. So there are more ways to
    lose than all of us getting caught.
[03:48] Fay
    Which means that our conditions to win
    probably won't be that simple either.
[03:52] Fay
    Running away so we can win...
    That's probably not enough, right?
[03:55] Meep
    Correct. Running away in Hide-and-God-Seek
    can lead you to victory,
[04:01] Meep
    but it is possible to lose even
    if you manage to run away.
[04:03] Meep
    That's all for the explanation of the rules!
[04:05] Meep
    By the way, you get a
    300-second head start to run!
SIGN    Victory

SIGN    Loss Condition 1
    Everyone is caught

SIGN    Loss Condition 2

    (Losing is still
    possible even if
    everyone gets
    away)
[04:19] Captain
    Wh-What the?
[04:20] Meep
    Whoopsie. Looks like Lord
    Titan can't wait any longer.
[04:24] Meep
    I guess you don't get a head start after all!
[04:27] All
    What?!
[04:31] All
    Now, hang on a second!
SIGN    The present
[04:49] Female Apostle
    I-It's so fast!
[04:50] Apostle A
    Captain, this isn't gonna work!
[04:52] Apostle A
    Even superhuman powers won't help
    us win in a game of tag like this!
[04:55] Apostle A
    Maybe flight magic...
[04:57] Apostle A
    N-No, even that wouldn't work!
[04:59] Captain
    Scatter! Split up and hide in
    the shadows of the buildings!
[05:02] Apostle A
    Yes, sir!
[05:10] Asta
    At this rate, I won't be able to do anything.
[05:12] Vice Captain
    On the surface, this is a game of tag,
[05:14] Vice Captain
    but should we be playing
    hide-and-seek instead?
[05:17] Vice Captain
    Why don't we just hide
    in one of the buildings?
[05:20] Asta
    Th-That's it, Vice-Captain! That way,
    we can hide without being found.
[05:24] Fay
    That's a bad play. Don't do it, Asta.
[05:27] Asta
    Huh?
[05:28] Asta
    But why?
[05:32] Fay
    That thing's got a pretty
    good idea of where we are.
[05:37] Fay
    Look out, Asta!
[05:40] Vice Captain
    Asta! Run towards us!
[05:58] Asta
    Wait... didn't I get a game over...?
[06:05] Asta
    N-No! What is this?!
[06:10] Asta
    H-Huh? A spell's activating on its own?
[06:16] Vice Captain
    Have you lost your mind, Asta?!
[06:18] Asta
    N-No! The spells are just
    activating on their own!
[06:23] Fay
    So I guess this is Hide-and-God-Seek.
SIGN    Hidden Rule 1
    Those incapacitated by
    the god's attack will
    become the god's subordinate
[06:26] Fay
    Of course there'd be hidden rules. This is
    a battle of wits against a god after all!
[06:32] Asta
    Vice-Captain, please run!
[06:34] Vice Captain
    Are you really saying that as you
    rapid fire wind magic at us?!
[06:44] Vice Captain
    C-Crap!
[06:56] Apostle B
    N-No way!
[06:58] Apostle C
    We weren't even touched!
[07:00] Fay
    It's not just based on touch?
[07:03] Leshea
    We might be in trouble, too.
[07:04] Fay
    Yeah, let's get away from here!
[07:08] Fay
    Now, there are four on the god's side.
[07:10] Leshea
    It's five if you include Titan.
SIGN    Humans
SIGN    God
[07:25] Leshea
    He's not coming after us?
[07:27] Fay
    Is he saving that for later?
[07:34] Fay
    If he eliminates everyone other than us,
[07:36] Fay
    it'll make two on the human side
    and seventeen on his.
[07:38] Fay
    He's going to use all that
    strength to attack us.
[07:41] Leshea
    And until then, he's going to have
    all of his subordinates attack us.
[07:45] Fay
    You know, their bottom halves
    are still their usual color.
[07:48] Fay
    It's so unbalanced.
[07:50] Asta
    Shut up! My body just keeps chasing you!
[07:54] Fay
    I guess Asta hasn't exactly game overed.
[07:57] Leshea
    Yeah. If she was out, she'd be
    back in the human world, unharmed.
[08:02] Fay
    There are still hidden rules in this game.
[08:05] Fay
    I get that they end up
    the same color as Titan,
[08:08] Fay
    but why is it just their upper bodies?
[08:25] Asta
    Huh?!
[08:29] Asta
    Hey! What are you doing?!
[08:31] Fay
    Leshea!
[08:32] Leshea
    Tag!
[08:34] Leshea
    Tag complete.
[08:36] Fay
    Now, she's back on the human side.
[08:38] Asta
    Huh?
[08:44] Asta
    Huh? Wha? I'm back to normal?
[08:49] Fay
    You didn't actually game over.
[08:51] Fay
    Your lower half didn't
    change color after all.
[08:54] Sign
    Hidden Rule 1
    Those incapacitated by the god's
    attack will become the god's subordinate
[08:54] Sign
    Hidden Rule 2
     It is possible to
    return any of
    god's
    subordinates
    back to the
    human side by
    tagging them
[08:57] Fay
    Which means there's a hidden rule to
    turn people back to the human side.
[09:01] Asta
    I-I see!
[09:06] Fay
    Crap. Guess he's after us again.
[09:10] Fay
    I guess he can't really leave us alone
[09:12] Fay
    now that we figured out
    how to turn people back.
[09:14] Fay
    Asta, go hide!
[09:15] Asta
    Got it!
[09:21] Leshea
    I think he's happy that you
    actually understood his game.
[09:34] Leshea
    We just keep running, but
    what do we need to do to win?
[09:38] Fay
    Come to think of it, Meep did mention
[09:40] Fay
    that we could still lose
    even if we keep running.
[09:43] Fay
    I guess it's part of the game to
    figure out the condition to win.
[09:43] Sign
    Loss Condition 1
    Everyone is caught
    by Titan
[09:43] Sign
    Loss Condition 2
    ?????
    (Losing is still
     possible even if
     everyone gets
    away)
SIGN    Victory Condition
[09:46] Leshea
    Defeating Titan would just make this a
    battle game, so that's probably not it.
[09:51] Fay
    Maybe if we can run away for a
    certain amount of time, we win?
[09:54] Leshea
    That's possible, but we've
    got nothing to prove that.
[09:57] Fay
    They never said how long we
    need to keep running either.
[10:00] Fay
    In that case...
[10:06] Leshea
    It's just as I thought.
[10:08] Fay
    What is?
[10:09] Leshea
    We totally get each other.
[10:11] Leshea
    You know exactly what I want
    to say, but more importantly,
[10:14] Leshea
    you're playing this game for real.
[10:17] Fay
    Huh? Of course, I am. This game
    is as thrilling as it gets.
[10:24] Leshea
    Well, that's what makes us gods happy.
[10:26] Leshea
    I am a former god myself, after all.
[10:28] Leshea
    When there's a human who plays
    the gods' games seriously...
[10:33] Leshea
    it makes the game that much fun!
SIGN    Games are meant to be fun
[10:48] Fay
    Though it really sucks when you
    lose, so I definitely want to win.
[10:52] Leshea
    But of course.
[10:54] Fay
    What is our victory condition?
[10:56] Fay
    There must've been a hint somewhere.
[11:08] Captain
    I'm sorry... He got all of us.
[11:11] Fay
    Yeah, we can see that...
[11:14] Captain
    But you mustn't give up!
[11:16] Captain
    Even if it's just the two of you,
    you need to keep running!
[11:21] Fay
    Then please let us go!
[11:23] Captain
    My legs have a mind of their own!
[11:29] Fay
    This way!
SIGN    Humans
SIGN    God
[11:38] Leshea
    Hiyah!
[11:43] Leshea
    This is only going to buy
    us a few dozen seconds.
[11:46] Fay
    Probably. Let's hurry!
[11:53] Fay
    I guess this is why the hidden rule about
[11:56] Fay
    getting tagged by him exists:
[11:57] Fay
    humans would be able to pursue us.
[12:00] Fay
    On top of that...
[12:03] Fay
    Titan's here, too.
[12:05] Leshea
    At this rate, we're trapped like rats.
[12:07] Fay
    It's already enough of a
    hassle to keep running,
[12:09] Fay
    but we still have to figure
    out our victory condition.
[12:11] Leshea
    It'd be nice to have more people on our side.
[12:14] Leshea
    That Asta girl is hiding, too.
[12:16] Leshea
    Everyone other than us is pretty much out.
[12:19] Leshea
    They all flipped over to Titan's side.
[12:22] Fay
    I see.
[12:24] Leshea
    What is it?
[12:25] Fay
    That's it, Leshea! They flipped!
[12:28] Leshea
    Flipped?
[12:29] Fay
    I figured it all out.
[12:31] Fay
    There's actually a third
    game in Hide-and-God-Seek.
SIGN    Gods' Games We Play
[12:40] Fay
    This Hide-and-God-Seek
    is a combination of tag,
[12:43] Fay
    hide-and-go-seek,
    and one other game.
[12:46] Leshea
    Flipped... Third... I get it.
[12:51] Leshea
    That explains why there are two
    lose conditions, as well.
[12:54] Fay
    Okay, let's split up.
[13:02] Leshea
    I'll take eight.
[13:04] Fay
    No. We can split them
    in half. Seven per.
[13:06] Leshea
    You're right. I'll lead them outside.
[13:09] Fay
    And I'll go up.
[13:28] Fay
    Damn that Titan...
[13:30] Fay
    He's destroying all the other
    buildings, one after another,
[13:32] Fay
    and then he's going to destroy this
    department store and it'll be checkmate.
[13:36] Fay
    Please let us make it in
    time... Both Leshea and I!
[13:50] Fay
    He used the apostles that are now his
    subordinates to lead me up to the roof...
[13:58] Fay
    Then he was planning to
    finish me off himself.
[14:09] Captain
    He's doomed...
SIGN    Humans
SIGN    God
[14:28] Fay
    Now that all the buildings have been
    destroyed, the game's over, right?
[14:33] Fay
    According to the Hide-and-God-Seek
    rules, I'm not incapacitated,
[14:37] Fay
    so I won't become your subordinate.
[14:41] Fay
    The ultimate self-regeneration that
    nullifies any kind of meddling
[14:44] Fay
    and restores me to how I was.
[14:47] Fay
    My Arise is called...
[14:49] Fay
    "May Your God."
[14:51] Fay
    I'm sure you think you've won
    even if I'm back since it's now
SIGN    Humans
SIGN    God
[14:55] Fay
    humans 3 versus 16 on
    your side, don't you?
[14:57] Fay
    But it's the opposite.
[14:58] Fay
    We're the ones who're going to meet
    the victory conditions, Titan.
[15:03] Fay
    Now, it's time to check our answers.
[15:05] Fay
    The game that was hidden in this game of
    Hide-and-God-seek until the end was...
[15:09] Fay
    Reversi!
[15:10] Fay
    Though we thought we were playing tag, this
    whole city is actually the game board.
[15:15] Fay
    The god chases after the humans who run away.
[15:18] Fay
    Subordinates of the god are created
    and the remaining humans save them.
[15:22] Fay
    This clearly means that the god got to
    go first and the humans play second.
[15:26] Fay
    And once the humans touch
    the affected humans,
[15:28] Fay
    their upper halves flip back
    to their original color.
[15:31] Fay
    This was the ultimate hint.
[15:33] Fay
    Each side was taking a turn.
    Touching someone would "flip" them.
[15:38] Fay
    The game that matches these rules is Reversi!
[15:41] Leshea
    Your meep is quite efficient.
[15:44] Leshea
    To think that the explanation
    of the rules would be a hint...
[15:48] Leshea
    The fact that this game is
    played within a square field.
[15:52] Fay
    Reversi is over once the
    whole board is one color.
[15:56] Fay
    In the case of Hide-and-God-Seek,
[15:57] Fay
    it's when all the buildings have been
    destroyed and we can't play anymore.
[16:00] Leshea
    All that's left is to see who has more
    in the end to win. The god or human side?
[16:05] Fay
    We had a single ray of
    hope to win this match...
[16:09] Fay
    and that's a chain!
[16:11] Fay
    When Asta and the vice-captain
    were touched by the Titan,
[16:15] Fay
    the two next to them also changed color.
[16:18] Fay
    The reason Asta slammed
    them against the wall
[16:22] Fay
    was to get them all lined up in
    a row between her and the god.
[16:26] Fay
    That's why the two in between were
    also flipped over to the god side.
[16:29] Fay
    And my goal was to distract you!
[16:33] Leshea
    We're going to be using
    that exact same method.
[16:37] Fay
    Asta!
[16:38] Asta
    Dang it, Fay! You need to treat
    those older than you with respect!
[16:46] Fay
    Leshea!
[16:53] Fay
    And now we flip... everything over!

    It's been 35 days since
    humanity has had a victory.
[17:59] Miranda
    Yesterday's match had incredible
    ratings all around the world.
[18:02] Miranda
    It was over 70% in this city alone.
[18:06] Fay
    That much?
[18:07] Miranda
    This will help us out a lot.
[18:09] Miranda
    We need to have the apostles
    we nurture with these earnings
[18:13] Miranda
    do their best and win the gods' games.
[18:17] Miranda
    So...
[18:18] Miranda
    How was it teaming up
    with Lady Leoleshea?
[18:21] Fay
    How was it?
[18:22] Miranda
    You were totally in sync.
[18:24] Miranda
    It's hard to think you two
    were a last-minute pair.
[18:28] Miranda
    What are your thoughts?
[18:29] Fay
    Honestly, it's pretty amazing.
[18:32] Fay
    All I need to do is glance at
    her and she totally gets me.
[18:35] Fay
    I guess that's what you
    get with a former god.
[18:37] Miranda
    Probably, yes.
[18:40] Miranda
    But it's not because she's a former god.
[18:42] Miranda
    I believe you were able to pull it
    off because you and Lady Leoleshea
[18:46] Miranda
    worked together.
[18:50] Miranda
    You see, Lady Leoleshea...
[18:51] Miranda
    was playing all by herself
    while you were gone.
[18:55] Fay
    By herself?
[18:56] Miranda
    She's so powerful, no one
    stood a chance against her.
[18:59] Miranda
    Even with cards, Go, and roulette...
[19:03] Fay
    By herself, huh...
[19:10] Miranda
    I think you two will be a great team.
[19:12] Miranda
    Now you're one step closer to
    completely Clearing the gods' games,
[19:16] Miranda
    just like you want.
[19:18] Fay
    I'll do my very best.
[19:26] Fay
    That's why I came back after all.
[19:31] Fay
    Leshea, can I come in?
[19:34] Leshea
    Sure.
[19:41] Leshea
    This part here... We ran
    into the department store,
[19:44] Leshea
    but I think we could've turned left
    and ran into the arcade's alley here.
[19:49] Fay
    Are you reflecting on your actions?
[19:51] Leshea
    Well, I guess that's enough for now.
    I've already watched this four times.
[19:55] Fay
    That's a bit much!
[19:56] Leshea
    Hey, what's your wish anyway, Fay?
[20:00] Leshea
    You know. The reward you get after
    winning ten times against the gods.
[20:03] Leshea
    My wish is to go back to being a god.
[20:10] Fay
    I do have a wish.
[20:11] Leshea
    Ooh, tell me!
[20:14] Fay
    There's someone I'm looking for.
[20:16] Leshea
    Who is it?
[20:17] Fay
    The person I played games
    with all the time as a child.
[20:22] Fay
    I never found out her name, so
    I always just called her "Sis."
[20:26] Fay
    She taught me everything about games.
[20:28] Fay
    I was young, so I never won
    no matter how many times we played.
[20:31] Fay
    I'd challenge her day and night... and
    she always greeted me with a smile.
[20:37] Fay
    But one day, she suddenly disappeared...
[20:41] Fay
    Just leaving behind the
    promise of us meeting again.
[20:44] (Flashback) Young Fay
    Sis!
[20:50] Leshea
    How strange.
[20:51] Fay
    I guess you can call her my mentor.
[20:53] Fay
    I want to see her again
    so I can tell her thanks.
[20:56] Fay
    The reason I'm here right now
    is undoubtedly because of her.
[21:00] Leshea
    Huh...
[21:01] Fay
    I only have one wish.
[21:03] Fay
    "Please find this person
    I used to play with."
[21:07] Leshea
    That's an interesting wish.
[21:10] Leshea
    But, Fay... You have no
    clues about her?
[21:14] Leshea
    All I know is she loves games.
[21:16] Fay
    I don't know her name, and I only
    vaguely remember her voice and face.
[21:20] Fay
    The one thing I remember for sure...
[21:23] Fay
    is the fact that she had vermillion-colored
    hair, just like you.
[21:29] Fay
    I was wondering if you and
    Sis were somehow connected...
[21:39] Leshea
    I was stuck inside a glacier
    for 3,000 years.
[21:45] Fay
    Right.
[21:47] Leshea
    But I hope your wish comes true.
[21:51] Leshea
    I guess we've got ourselves a team.
[21:54] Fay
    It might be fate that I met Leshea,
    who looks so much like Sis.
[21:58] Fay
    Yeah, let's do this.
[22:01] Fay
    I promise that I'm going
    to give this my all.
[22:04] Fay
    Let's Clear the gods' games!
