SIGN    Japanese OK
[00:01] Nana
    What? She really said that?
[00:03] Mimi
    Yeah. She said she hated
    how it felt like cheating.
[00:08] Nana
    I guess that's just like Nene-nee.
[00:10] Mimi
    What do we do now?
[00:12] Mimi
    I'm not going to try to come up
     with strategies anymore.
[00:15] Mimi
    She said she wants to fight fair and
    square when the next full moon comes.
[00:19] Nana
    I see...
[00:22] Mimi
    But can she win?
[00:23] Mimi
    Ernesta and Tsuchimikado
    are both renowned mages.
[00:28] Nana
    She'll be fine.
[00:30] Nana
    Our family has produced feng shui
    masters for 4,000 years.
[00:39] (Flashback) Nene
    I know you've teamed up to try to defeat me.
[00:46] (Flashback) Nene
    So just be sure you come prepared.
[00:51] Nene
    Mother...
SIGN    GRANBELM
SIGN    The Two Princeps
[02:42] Mangetsu
    It's incredible...
[02:43] Shingetsu
    This must be the stage
    for this month's battle.
[02:47] Kuon
    It's time.
[03:02] Kuon
    All right, then, as we discussed.
[03:04] Mangetsu
    Yeah.
[03:10] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    The feng shui master Lin Fen Fen
    participated in past GRANBELM battles.
[03:15] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    It's said that she was considerably strong.
[03:18] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    Her ARMANOX specialized in ranged attacks,
[03:21] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    and excelled in its ability
    to detect opponents, as well.
[03:24] (Flashback) Mangetsu
    So you think this battle will be the same?
[03:26] (Flashback) Kuon
    This is her daughter. They may
    not be perfectly identical,
[03:30] (Flashback) Kuon
    but her ARMANOX is likely to
    be similar to her mother's.
[03:34] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    Normally, when an ARMANOX launches an attack,
[03:39] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    the magic response can be
    detected through the threads.
[03:44] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    But with JI GUAN LONG, I could
    barely even sense that at all.
[03:49] (Flashback) Mangetsu
    But you can sense it, right, Kuon-chan?
[03:52] (Flashback) Kuon
    When magical power is
    unleashed, I can hear it.
[04:07] Shingetsu
    Position confirmed.
[04:09] Mangetsu
    You figured it out?
[04:11] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    Yes.
[04:12] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    I'm best suited to provide
[04:14] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    the appropriate backup after
    assessing the situation.
[04:18] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    Besides, if I act carelessly...
[04:22] (Flashback) Mangetsu
    That Anna girl, right?
[04:24] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    Yes. So, Mangetsu, I need you
    to go with SETSGETS BAIKA.
[04:29] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    If ACONITE GRIS is about to interfere,
[04:32] (Flashback) Shingetsu
    I'll draw it away.
[04:34] Mangetsu
    How's it look?
[04:35] Kuon
    Shh.
[04:42] Shingetsu
    Here they come.
[04:43] Mangetsu
    Right!
[04:46] Mangetsu
    That many?!
[04:47] Shingetsu
    All but one of them are dummies
    meant to make her harder to locate.
[04:51] Shingetsu
    Only one is real.
[05:00] Shingetsu
    Mangetsu, are you all right?
[05:03] Mangetsu
    Yeah, I'm—
[05:05] Mangetsu
    Do I have to bust my way through these?
[05:13] Shingetsu
    Don't bother attacking. You'll only
    give away our location.
[05:17] Mimi
    How's it going?
[05:18] Nene
    I've got my barrier up to prevent
    them from detecting my magic.
[05:22] Nene
    Of course, that's a given...
[05:24] Nana
    We did expect that. Can you
    see with your own eyes?
[05:26] Nene
    Is that possible?
[05:28] Nana
    It should be.
[05:29] Nana
    The most important thing is
    the pilot's mental image.
[05:47] Nene
    Yeah... Not bad!
[06:04] Shingetsu
    Can she detect us even after all this?
[06:07] Kuon
    I'm not sure,
[06:08] Kuon
    but she definitely knows where we are.
[06:15] Shingetsu
    It looks like a massive number,
[06:17] Shingetsu
    but there's only one location
    they're being fired from.
[06:24] Kuon
    No...
[06:26] Kuon
    There are many similar sounds,
[06:29] Kuon
    but only one is real.
[06:47] Anna
    I found you.
[06:50] Anna
    Embers!
[06:53] Anna
    Suishou!
[06:55] Suishou
    Aye!
[06:56] Anna
    Make sure we remain
    undetected, no matter what.
[06:59] Suishou
    Aye-aye!
[07:02] Suishou
    Milady sure is petty, though...
[07:08] Suishou
    How very human of her.
[07:21] Mimi
    What happened?
[07:21] Nene
    My barrier took a direct hit!
[07:23] Mimi
    Wasn't it a stray round?
[07:24] Nene
    But...
[07:26] Nana
    Are you going to run? We'll
    leave it up to your judgment.
[07:43] Kuon
    I found her.
[07:44] Shingetsu
    Are you sure?
[07:46] Kuon
    Back me up.
[07:47] Kuon
    WHITE LILY, over here.
[07:49] Mangetsu
    Here?
[07:51] Mangetsu
    Okay... but the attacks
    are still pretty intense!
[08:06] Mangetsu
    They stopped...
[08:07] Kuon
    Could it be... instead of magic
    detection, she's simply using her eyes?
[08:18] Nene
    Looks like they realized
     I'm aiming with my own eyes.
[08:20] Mimi
    Any magic traces?
[08:23] Nene
    They're far off, so I can only
    pick up on a little of it...
[08:28] Nene
    But...
[08:31] Mangetsu
    She shouldn't be able to see me!
[08:35] Nene
    I see it!
[08:41] Shingetsu
    She attacks with such precision!
[08:44] Kuon
    That's just how talented she is.
[08:51] Mimi
    They're getting closer!
[08:52] Nene
    I know!
[08:58] (Flashback) Mom
    So, which one?
[09:01] (Flashback) Mom
    Don't look. Feel the power with your hands.
[09:04] (Flashback) Mom
    You'll know.
[09:06] (Flashback) Mom
    Which one harbors the technique?
[09:18] Nene
    More... I have to focus more.
[09:21] Nene
    Until I can see it... Until
    I can see it in my mind...
[09:28] Nene
    I see it... I see it!
[09:35] Mangetsu
    Envision... Envision!
[09:48] Mangetsu
    Hot!
[09:51] Mangetsu
    Envision!
[10:00] Shingetsu
    Mangetsu...
[10:02] Mangetsu
    That way!
[10:03] Mangetsu
    I can see it!
[10:05] Mangetsu
    It's over there!
[10:31] Nene
    No...
[10:34] Nene
    I can't...
[10:52] Mangetsu
    She's gone... Kuon-chan?
[10:55] Shingetsu
    That's definitely the
    position Kuon pointed out.
[10:58] Shingetsu
    Did she run away?
[10:59] Mangetsu
    Maybe, I guess...
[11:02] Mangetsu
    But... She knew WHITE LILY was here, too...
[11:07] Shingetsu
    Kuon? Kuon, where are you?
[11:09] Kuon
    I'm sorry...
[11:11] Shingetsu
    Kuon? What's going on?
[11:19] Suishou
    Oh, that's not nearly enough.
[11:23] Kuon
    So it was true?
[11:24] Suishou
    Of course!
[11:27] Suishou
    It's Shisui, isn't it?
    The one who was cursed.
[11:32] Kuon
    How did you know?
[11:33] Suishou
    Pop quiz!
[11:35] Suishou
    How did I know that?
[11:40] Kuon
    Answer me!
[11:44] Suishou
    I'm the one asking the questions.
[11:50] Kuon
    That's...
[11:51] Shingetsu
    Kuon! Kuon! It can't be...
[11:59] Anna
    I can't believe it took
    you this long to notice!
[12:03] Anna
    What a fool!
[12:06] Shingetsu
    Anna...
[12:08] Anna
    In this space, overflowing with magical power,
[12:11] Anna
    what do you think would happen if
    I were to deploy a magic circle?
[12:17] Anna
    Say goodbye!
[12:24] Mangetsu
    What? Shingetsu-chan?
[12:28] Mangetsu
    Shingetsu-chan...
[12:29] Nene
    What happened?
[12:30] Nana
    Another mage has deployed something.
[12:33] Nana
    But it's okay. It's having no effect on you.
[12:36] Mimi
    Be patient. That's JI GUAN LONG's ability.
[12:40] Mimi
    It's your ability to hide, as a hermit.
[12:44] Nene
    I don't feel like that's a compliment...
[12:47] Mimi
    The next time she turns
    her back to you, fire.
[12:50] Mimi
    At this range, your barrier
    would be destroyed.
[12:55] Mimi
    Nene-nee!
[12:58] Nene
    I don't like this.
[12:59] Both
    Huh?
[13:01] Nene
    I don't like doing this.
[13:03] Mangetsu
    Shingetsu-chan? Kuon-chan?
[13:08] Mangetsu
    What...
[13:36] Mangetsu
    There!
[13:37] Nene
    I've been spotted!
[13:38] Nana
    Nene-nee!
[13:40] Mimi
    You hesitated too long!
[13:41] Nene
    Shut up! This is just fine!
[13:44] Mimi
    You know, for such a shut-in...
[13:46] Nana
    That's just like her, though.
[13:50] Mimi
    Your ARMANOX is a reflection
    of your own soul.
[13:54] Mimi
    The stronger Nene-nee's
    wish is, the stronger she is.
[13:58] Nana
    Show us your wish, Nene-nee!
[14:02] Nene
    Okay.
[14:03] Nene
    JI GUAN LONG!
[14:13] Mangetsu
    What?!
[14:40] Mangetsu
    Nene-chan...
[14:45] Nene
    Mother...
[14:50] Nene
    Watch me.
[15:05] Mangetsu
    She's strong!
[15:18] Anna
    This is what you deserve!
[15:20] Anna
    You betrayed me, took everything from me,
[15:24] Anna
    and condemned me to torment,
    so this is your punishment!
[15:28] Anna
    Ernesta!
[15:32] Anna
    Wha—
[15:34] Shingetsu
    In this space, overflowing
    with magical power...
[15:38] Shingetsu
    Did you really think I, a mage,
    would have no plan?
[15:44] Anna
    Ernesta!
[15:49] Shingetsu
    I'll say it over and over.
[15:51] Shingetsu
    You cannot defeat me.
[16:06] Kuon
    Who put that curse on my sister?
[16:10] Suishou
    You want to know?
[16:16] Suishou
    I'll be happy to tell you...
[16:21] Suishou
    once this is all over!
[17:25] Mimi
    Nene!
[17:26] Nene
    What?
[17:27] Mimi
    You should withdraw for now.
[17:28] Nene
    No!
[17:29] Nana
    Can you win this?
[17:34] Nene
    I can!
[18:15] Mangetsu
    When did...
[18:25] Mangetsu
    What the heck is this?!
[18:27] Nene
    Ten.
[18:30] Nene
    Nine.
[18:31] Mangetsu
    No way...
[18:32] Nene
    Eight.
[18:34] Nene
    Seven.
[18:34] Mangetsu
    Envision! Envision!
[18:36] Nene
    Six.
[18:37] Mangetsu
    Envision!
[18:39] Nene
    Five.
[18:41] Nene
    Four.
[18:43] Nene
    Three.
[18:46] Nene
    Two.
[18:48] Nene
    One.
[19:25] Nene
    Why... Mother?
[19:28] Nene
    Don't go! I don't want to say goodbye!
[19:31] Nene
    Liar! Liar! Liar!
[19:35] Nene
    I did just as you told me to do!
[20:10] Mangetsu
    No!
[20:43] Nene
    No way...
[20:56] Mangetsu
    No... No!
[20:58] Mangetsu
    No!
[21:01] Mangetsu
    No!
[21:14] Nene
    Mother!
[21:16] Nene
    You told me to live without hating
     myself, and that's what I've done!
[21:22] Nene
    I've remembered what it means to be a mage
     because you told me never to forget!
[21:26] Girl
    Mommy!
[21:29] Girl
    Mommy!
[21:40] Mom
    What is a mage?
[21:42] Mom
    You have the wrong person.
[21:45] Mom
    I'm sorry.
[21:50] Mangetsu
    This is... Nene-chan's...
[21:54] Nene
    Mommy...
[21:56] Nene
    Mommy...
[22:18] Mangetsu
    So this is...
[22:21] Mangetsu
