[00:40] Wolbach
    Are you okay? Were you hurt?
[00:43] Megumin
    How can I become like you?
[00:47] Wolbach
    What's your name, young lady?
[00:52] Megumin
    It's Megumin!

    The girl was lit by the red
    light of the explosion's flames.
[00:59] Narrator
    The heat and light it gave off
    burnt an impression into her soul.

    This is the story of the girl known to
    some as a mage of exceptional quality,

    deranged user of explosion magic.

[01:35] Wolbach
    Megumin? Is that a nickname?
[01:38] Megumin
    It's my real name.
[01:40] Wolbach
    Oh... okay.
[01:42] Wolbach
    Who freed me from that seal, I wonder?
[01:48] Wolbach
    Wait, is that—
[01:50] Megumin
    Your magic blew away a few pieces
    of this puzzle I had finally finished.
[01:55] Megumin
    Would you help me find them?
[01:57] Wolbach
    Your... puzzle?
[01:59] Wolbach
    Tell me, young lady,
[02:00] Wolbach
    didn't the grown-ups from your village
    warn you about coming near here?
[02:04] Megumin
    My mom always says any
    place that's off-limits
[02:08] Megumin
    is usually being used to hide treasure.
[02:11] Megumin
    So I come here every day.
[02:12] Wolbach
    Do you, now?
[02:15] Wolbach
    It seems I owe you my thanks, young lady.
[02:20] Wolbach
    Tell me, do you have a wish?
[02:23] Megumin
    A wish?
[02:25] Wolbach
    Don't be shy. Anything you want.
[02:26] Wolbach
    I might not seem like much, but I'm
    a great mage of incredible power.
[02:31] Megumin
    World domination!
[02:34] Wolbach
    S-Sorry, that's a bit much.
[02:37] Wolbach
    What have I gotten myself into?
    Is this girl a bigger deal than I thought?
[02:40] Wolbach
    Um, is there anything else you want?
[02:43] Megumin
    In that case, please give me massive boobs.
[02:46] Wolbach
    That's also a no-go, I think.
[02:48] Wolbach
    Besides, how old are you now?
[02:51] Wolbach
    You don't look old enough to
    worry about that sort of thing.
[02:54] Megumin
    Then... I wanna be the Devil King!
[02:57] Wolbach
    I-I am so sorry! Let me rephrase what I said!
[03:00] Wolbach
    Compared to a big shot like you, I'm a
    mage with only semi-moderate power!
[03:05] Wolbach
    I think I could only grant
    a moderate wish of yours!
[03:09] Megumin
    Well, I'm missing three pieces of this thing,
    so could you just help me find those?
[03:14] Wolbach
    Okay, hang on.
[03:15] Wolbach
    I can manage something
    slightly bigger than that!
[03:21] Wolbach
    Besides, there has to be something else,
    a bigger dream of yours.
[03:26] Megumin
    A big dream?
[03:28] Wolbach
    Yeah.
[03:31] Megumin
    I want you to teach me
    the magic you just used!
[03:34] Wolbach
    That's...
[03:36] Megumin
    You have to! Please!
[03:39] Wolbach
    I... can't really recommend
    learning that magic.
[03:45] Megumin
    Fine, then. Just help me catch some crawfish.
[03:48] Wolbach
    You've got it wrong!
[03:48] Wolbach
    Please don't give me that pitying
    look for pitiful people!
[03:51] Wolbach
    I'm just trying to say, that spell
    has a lot of negatives to it!
[03:54] Megumin
    What kind of magic is it?
[03:56] Wolbach
    Well...
[03:58] Wolbach
    It's called explosion magic, and it's
    the most powerful kind there is.
[04:03] Megumin
    The most powerful?!
[04:17] Megumin
    Most powerful!
[04:18] Komekko
    You rock, Sis!
[04:20] Megumin
    Look at all these! I think we
    should have grilled crawfish.
[04:23] Megumin
    Let's pick some edible
    plants while we're at it.
[04:25] Komekko
    Yeah!
[04:27] Megumin/Komekko
    Crawfish for dinner tomorrow!
[04:29] Yunyun
    I see, I see.
[04:29] Megumin/Komekko
    Crawfish for the day after! And cicadas!
[04:32] Megumin/Komekko
    Crawfish for dinner tomorrow!
    Crawfish for the day after! And cicadas!
[04:38] Megumin/Komekko
    Crawfish for dinner tomorrow!
    Crawfish for the day after!
[04:50] Megumin
    They're quite good.
[04:52] Yunyun
    U-Um... I wasn't really...
[04:56] Megumin
    Bye.
[05:00] Komekko
    Was that charity?
[05:01] Megumin
    She had a hungry look in her eyes.
[05:03] Komekko
    That's my sister! So generous!
[05:11] Megumin
    Huh?
[05:13] Komekko
    There's someone there!
[05:16] Hyoizaburo
    Hey, Megumin! I was worried
    since no one was home!
[05:20] Megumin
    You're back!
[05:22] Komekko
    Yay! It's Dad!
[05:23] Hyoizaburo
    Hey, it's Kome—
[05:25] Yuiyui
    Oh, that's quite a catch!
[05:26] Hyoizaburo
    I gotcha! I gotcha!
[05:27] Komekko
    Oh, no! Not tickles! Make it stop!
[05:27] Megumin
    Mom.
[05:29] Yuiyui
    But tonight...
[05:33] Yuiyui
    We're having sukiyaki!
[05:36] Megumin
    Real meat! How many months has it been?!
[05:39] Yuiyui
    And today is special,
    because everyone gets two pieces!
[05:42] Megumin
    Did you say two?!
[05:43] Hyoizaburo
    Your dad gets three! Doesn't he?
[05:45] Yuiyui
    He does not!
[05:46] Komekko
    Sis, what's sukiyaki?
[05:49] Megumin
    It's fancy food that you only get
    to eat on special occasions.
[05:53] Megumin
    You eat them with raw egg.
[05:55] Komekko
    Egg? Like from a chicken!?
[05:58] Hyoizaburo
    To think a day would come
    when I'd get to have my
[06:00] Hyoizaburo
    darling daughters around the
    table for a hot sukiyaki meal.
[06:03] Hyoizaburo
    I made the right choice in dedicating
    myself to my craftsmanship.
[06:05] Megumin
    Has work been going that well lately?
[06:08] Hyoizaburo
    Sure has!
[06:09] Hyoizaburo
    I met this wonderful person who actually
    understands the quality of my goods.
[06:13] Yuiyui
    Hey, I worked hard, as well.
[06:15] Hyoizaburo
    You sure did! Your sales pitch worked wonders.
[06:19] Hyoizaburo
    I've gotta say, our customer
    got herself quite a deal.
[06:22] Megumin
    This is a little hard to swallow...
[06:24] Hyoizaburo
    What?!
[06:25] Megumin
    Who, exactly, was this customer?
[06:36] (Flashback) Hyoizaburo
    Honey. Could you get some tea?
[06:40] (Flashback) Hyoizaburo
    Honey... some tea?
[06:42] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    Oh, dear, of course not!
[06:44] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    How could we possibly have any tea
    when we haven't sold a damn thing?
[06:48] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    You can worry about luxuries
    after business picks up.
[06:54] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    Oh!
[06:54] (Flashback) Arnes
    Well, I'm surprised to see
    these sorts of things here.
[06:58] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    Are you a traveler? Please, take your time.
[07:01] (Flashback) Arnes
    Mm, to think that humans were
    capable of this sort of craft!
[07:06] (Flashback) Arnes
    Here, let me see that one.
[07:08] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    Oh, this is wonderful!
    Our first customer of the day.
[07:12] (Flashback) Hyoizaburo
    Get out of here.
[07:15] (Flashback) Hyoizaburo
    That's one of my finest pieces,
    one I put a lot of work into.
[07:18] (Flashback) Hyoizaburo
    I won't sell it to anyone who doesn't
    really appreciate its value.
[07:21] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    Oh, there you go, saying that kind of
    thing for literally no reason again.
[07:24] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    You really want to tell our hungry children
    that you didn't sell anything? Again?
[07:29] (Flashback) Arnes
    No, it's clear this wouldn't usually
    be sold in a market like this.
[07:33] (Flashback) Arnes
    I can tell that you're a magic
    tool craftsman of fine skill.
[07:37] (Flashback) Hyoizaburo
    You know what you're talking about, miss!
[07:40] (Flashback) Hyoizaburo
    This makes the trip all
    the way out here worth it!
[07:43] (Flashback) Hyoizaburo
    Indeed, the magic power contained
    in this piece is massive!
[07:46] (Flashback) Hyoizaburo
    A real masterpiece, not like the trash
    that amounts to being a good luck charm!
[07:49] (Flashback) Arnes
    I-Is that right?
[07:51] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    It has the ability to attract
    the person you're seeking!
[07:56] (Flashback) Arnes
    I've actually been searching for
    someone dear to me for a long time.
[07:59] (Flashback) Arnes
    It sounds like a perfect
    match for my journey.
[08:01] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    Well, with this, we Crimson Demon craftsmen
[08:04] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    guarantee that your journey
    will be a successful one!
[08:07] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    It'll be ten thousand eris!
[08:08] (Flashback) Arnes
    A guarantee? A pact, in other words?
[08:12] (Flashback) Yuiyui
    Huh? Sure, of course!
[08:15] (Flashback) Arnes
    Interesting. I'll take it!
[08:18] (Flashback) Parents
    Thanks for your purchase!
[08:22] Hyoizaburo
    She was a real sweetheart with
    an uncommon eye for quality!
[08:26] Hyoizaburo
    Probably a famous adventurer!
[08:28] Megumin
    Well, it sounds like you did a good deed.
[08:31] Yuiyui
    I bet she's pleased with her purchase.
[08:33] Yuiyui
    And thanks to her, we get to eat real meat.
[08:36] Hyoizaburo
    And now I can afford a new
    uniform for my daughter.
[08:40] Hyoizaburo
    I feel genuine paternal pride!
[08:43] Yuiyui
    That's right, Megumin.
[08:44] Megumin
    Really and truly? After you said I'd
    be stuck with your hand-me-downs?
[08:48] Yuiyui
    Well, you didn't seem happy about that.
[08:50] Megumin
    I mean, considering you customized it
    to match the trends of your era...
[08:54] Hyoizaburo
    Hey, now! Your mother made that look work!
[08:56] Hyoizaburo
    It was totally tubular!
[08:59] Hyoizaburo
    People were wondering,
    "Is this chick the last boss?"
[09:01] Yuiyui
    Come on, that was a long time ago.
[09:03] Megumin
    This "tubular" talk is exactly
    why I was against the idea.
SIGN    KONOSUBA - An Explosion on This Wonderful World!
[09:07] Hyoizaburo
    Totally tubular!
[09:11] Megumin
    Truly, when wearing the
    uniform of our magic academy,
[09:13] Megumin
    it's only fitting that you wear
    your own set, in your own style!
[09:18] Komekko
    You're awesome, Sis!
[09:20] Yuiyui
    How adorable!
[09:21] Hyoizaburo
    My little girl has grown up so much!
[09:24] Yuiyui
    She's only just enrolled, dear.
[09:25] Hyoizaburio
    Honey, put on the fancy tea!
[09:27] Yuiyui
    We have boiled water. How about that?
[09:30] Megumin
    Mom, Dad, I intend to learn at
    the academy in order to become...
[09:35] Megumin
    a great master of explosion magic!
[09:47] Headmaster
    Congratulations on your enrollment, everyone.
[09:50] Headmaster
    And welcome to the temple
    of Crimson Demon learning,
[09:53] Headmaster
    and the greatest magic academy in the world!
[09:56] Headmaster
    The Red Prison!
[10:04] Headmaster
    May your journey down the paths of sorcery
    and magic be bathed in the crimson light!
[10:10] Headmaster
    I will now recite from the pulse-pounding
    scripture of the second book,
[10:12] Pucchin
    Not good. If the headmaster starts in on
    the sagas, we're gonna be here all night.
[10:14] Headmaster
    so that our new students
[10:16] Headmaster
    may have the opportunity to thoroughly
    absorb, in great detail, the—
[10:17] Pucchin
    Uh, this hereby concludes this
    year's matriculation ceremony!
[10:20] Headmaster
    Hey! It was just about to get good!
[10:23] Headmaster
    At least let me get to the
    third book of the saga!
[10:26] Headmaster
    You didn't mind last year!
[10:28] Pucchin
    Well, everyone, good luck with
    your lessons starting tomorrow.
[10:35] Megumin
    The Red Prison. This is where the
    first page of my story is written.
[10:40] Megumin
    And here are my contemporaries, who will
    soon be reduced to mere stepping stones.
[10:44] Funifura
    It's finally over. The headmaster
    never knows when to stop.
[10:49] Dodonko
    A class of eleven, huh?
[10:51] Funifura
    Well, it's not a big village.
[10:54] Arue
    The chosen eleven. Eleven is a sorcerous number.
[10:58] Dodonko
    Oh, nice! Sounds cool.
[11:01] Funifura
    You coming, Megumin?
[11:02] Funifura
    There's a party at Nerimaki's house.
    Her family runs the pub.
[11:06] Megumin
    I'm not here to make friends.
[11:08] Arue
    Impressive. Putting on the lone wolf act
    already at the enrollment ceremony.
[11:12] Arue
    She gets it.
[11:16] Yunyun
    E-Excuse me...
[11:18] Megumin
    Can I help you?
[11:19] Megumin
    Uh... who were you again?
[11:21] Yunyun
    We live in the same village!
    You don't know my name?
[11:24] Megumin
    You just... don't make much of an impression.
[11:26] Yunyun
    Really? Nothing at all?
[11:27] Megumin
    Honestly, no.
[11:29] Funifura
    Let's see, if I remember right...
[11:31] Dodonko
    Isn't she the chief's daughter?
[11:33] Yunyun
    M-My name is Yunyun!
[11:35] FuniDonko
    Oh, right, right!
[11:36] Arue
    I had no idea you were
    in the same year as us.
[11:39] Arue
    You kind of blend into the background.
[11:41] Megumin
    So, what do you want, Yunyun?
[11:43] Megumin
    I'm in a bit of a hurry.
[11:45] Yunyun
    Oh, well...
[11:47] Yunyun
    I've been looking forward
    to meeting you, is all!
[11:51] Megumin
    Really? When we barely know each other?
[11:53] Megumin
    Are you stalking me?
[11:54] Yunyun
    Wait, no... I didn't mean it like that!
[11:56] Megumin
    Well, it's a creepy notion,
    so please don't follow me around.
[11:59] Yunyun
    Wait... I...
[12:03] Yunyun
    I enrolled here to defeat you!
[12:10] Arue
    Declaring yourself her rival so early on.
    An exciting turn of events, for sure.
[12:16] Yunyun
    W-Wait, no, I mean...
[12:19] Megumin
    And thus, my school days began.
[12:26] Megumin
    Life in the Red Prison was beyond harsh.
[12:31] Megumin
    Crimson Demons are only considered
    adults after learning advanced magic,
[12:35] Megumin
    but that's not the kind of
    magic I'm interested in.
[12:38] Megumin
    I want what I saw on that day. That...
[12:42] Pucchin
    Well, it's been a month since
    you all started attending class.
[12:47] Pucchin
    Today I'm going to lecture you
    on special classes of magic.
[12:50] Pucchin
    In addition to advanced magic,
[12:52] Pucchin
    there's also blasting magic,
    bursting magic, and bombing magic.
[12:56] Megumin
    Teacher! Something crucial isn't in the text.
[12:59] Pucchin
    Say what?
[12:59] Megumin
    There's nothing about explosion magic.
[13:02] Funifura
    Explosion?
[13:03] Arue
    Is she serious?
[13:06] Pucchin
    Whatever you do,
    don't pursue explosion magic.
[13:09] Megumin
    Why not?
[13:10] Pucchin
    Explosion magic is...
[13:12] Pucchin
    something that repays
    an entire life's pursuit of it
[13:16] Pucchin
    with no practical applications.
[13:19] Pucchin
    It's basically joke magic!
[13:23] Funifura
    Come on, Megumin, quit trying to crack us up!
[13:26] Arue
    You have comedic talent,
    as well. Very impressive.
[13:30] Pucchin
    Come on, it's not that funny, people!
[13:38] Pucchin
    Okay, it's time for combat training,
    formerly known as gym class!
[13:43] Funifura
    Yes! I've been looking forward to this!
[13:46] Pucchin
    Now, what is the most important thing
[13:48] Pucchin
    when a Crimson Demon engages in combat?
[13:50] Pucchin
    Let's hear from our
    second-ranked tester, Yunyun!
[13:54] Yunyun
    Uh, m-me?
[13:56] Yunyun
    U-Um, in combat, it's important to...
[14:00] Yunyun
    r-remain calm!
[14:02] Yunyun
    You have to remain calm
    and never lose your composure!
[14:05] Pucchin
    Five points.
[14:06] Yunyun
    Only five?!
[14:07] Pucchin
    Next up, number one, Megumin!
[14:09] Megumin
    Destructive power!
[14:11] Megumin
    The strength to obliterate everything!
[14:13] Megumin
    I believe that power is
    the most important of all!
[14:16] Pucchin
    Eh, fifty points for that.
[14:18] Pucchin
    True, power is valuable.
[14:20] Pucchin
    But you're wrong! It's only worth fifty points!
[14:23] Megumin
    I-I only scored fifty points?
[14:26] Yunyun
    That's still ten times what I got.
[14:29] Pucchin
    Arue! I'm sure you know the answer.
[14:33] Arue
    Looking cool, sir.
[14:35] Pucchin
    Oh, yeah! The full hundred points!
    Yes, it's looking cool!
[14:38] Pucchin
    Crimson Demon combat doesn't
    begin unless it begins in style!
[14:41] Pucchin
    Allow me to demonstrate
    exactly what that means.
[14:45] Pucchin
    Call of Thunderstorm!
[14:54] Pucchin
    My name is Pucchin!
[14:55] Pucchin
    Arch wizard and master of advanced magic!
[14:59] Pucchin
    The foremost homeroom teacher
    among the Crimson Demons,
[15:01] Pucchin
    and he who shall usurp
    the headmaster's throne!
[15:06] Students
    S-So cool!
[15:09] Funifura
    So that's what he summoned those clouds for.
[15:13] Dodonko
    Makes sense.
[15:14] Yunyun
    I-It's so embarrassing!
[15:16] Funifura
    What are you talking about?
    That's our whole deal!
[15:18] Arue
    We are Crimson Demons.
[15:20] Pucchin
    Ow, hot!
[15:22] Pucchin
    Okay, I want you to split up into pairs.
[15:26] Pucchin
    Focus on coming up with a
    cool way to declare yourself,
[15:28] Pucchin
    and experiment with great posing!
[15:30] Students
    Okay.
[15:32] Yunyun
    P-Pairs?
[15:36] Pucchin
    Okay, whoever's left will
    be paired up with me.

    Based on my personnel statistics study,
[15:50] Megumin
    there's a high likelihood of you becoming
    a very powerful mage in the future.
[15:54] Megumin
    Which is why I should assert my
    dominance over you right now!

[16:42] Yunyun
    O-Okay.
[16:44] Yunyun
    Um...
[16:45] Yunyun
    I... I'm the chief's daughter, and, um...
[16:50] Pucchin
    Come now! How are you going to
    do this if you're embarrassed?
[16:52] Pucchin
    Mastery of declaring yourself is
    mastery of Crimson Demon combat!
[16:56] Yunyun
    But, sir, it's so embarrassing.
[16:58] Pucchin
    Well, that is an odd thing
    for a Crimson Demon to say!
[17:03] Pucchin
    An odd thing indeed!
[17:07] Arue
    What's wrong?
[17:08] Megumin
    Nothing.
[17:16] Megumin
    Teacher. I'm not feeling well, so is it
    all right if I sit out PE again today?
[17:21] Pucchin
    Again with this? You know today's
    lesson is important, right?
[17:24] Pucchin
    You can't fake being sick to get out it.

    If nothing is done, the other entity
    inside me will seize control!
[17:33] Pucchin
    Megumin! No! It can't be...
[17:35] Pucchin
    Is the thing sealed within 
    you trying to awaken?!
[17:41] Pucchin
    So be it.
[17:42] Pucchin
    You can rest over there.
[17:44] Pucchin
    You must ensure the seal remains intact!
[17:47] Megumin
    Understood. If you'll excuse me.

    Yunyun, it appears I'm down a partner.
[17:56] Arue
    Would you join me?
[17:58] Yunyun
    Oh, okay! Thanks.
[18:02] Yunyun
    Um... I'm going to be chief
    of the village someday...
[18:07] Yunyun
    Well, honestly, I'm not sure about that...
[18:09] Arue
    Then just bluff about it.
[18:12] Yunyun
    Bluff?
[18:14] Megumin
    Stare.
[18:18] Arue
    Like this. And then like that!
[18:18] Yunyun
    This?
[18:25] Yunyun
    Teacher, it's raining!
[18:27] Pucchin
    Come to think of it, the source of magic
    power, the moon, is at its apex today.
[18:32] Pucchin
    It seems my strength is
    overflowing as a result.
[18:36] Funifura
    You could just admit you didn't
    think of a way to stop it!
[18:39] Arue
    The headmaster's beloved tulip
    flowerbed is being washed away.
[18:43] Pucchin
    Huh, really?
[18:45] Pucchin
    Wait, no!
[18:47] Pucchin
    This is bad! Everyone, catch those tulips!
[18:50] Pucchin
    Or I could lose my job!
[18:52] Arue
    You really want to blurt that part out?
[18:57] Megimin
    Teacher, my stomach hurts, so I'm
    gonna head to the nurse's office.

    Oh, come off it and help!

[19:11] Pucchin
    Damn it... Wait, I know.
    The seal has been broken!
[19:15] Pucchin
    This rain was caused by a dark god!

    It would've been easier
    if we could use magic...

    Tell me about it.
[19:37] Yunyun
    I can't wait to learn some.

    Never mind.
[19:48] Yunyun
    Hey, Megumin...
[19:50] Yunyun
    I know everyone laughed,
[19:52] Yunyun
    but I think whether it's a joke
    would depend on who's using it.
[19:55] Megumin
    Don't be so friendly.
[19:57] Megumin
    You're supposed to be my rival, aren't you?
[20:01] Yunyun
    Y-You're right! We're rivals,

    I might've come in second place
    during exams, but next time—
[20:08] Megumin
    Sure, sure.
[20:09] Yunyun
    Do you have to sound so dismissive?!

    Explosion magic... is joke magic?
[20:38] Megumin
    No. I saw it on that day.

    Hey, hey!
[00:05] Smith
    You gals on your way back from
    school? I've got great low prices.
[00:08] Smith
    Take a look! These deals are today only.
[00:13] Megumin
    I was wondering what you wanted...
[00:15] Megumin
    But "I've always dreamed of shopping for
    cute trinkets with a friend after school"?
[00:21] Yunyun
    So mean! Why would you say that?
[00:23] Megumin
    For one thing, we're not friends.
[00:30] Megumin
    What? The daggers?
[00:32] Yunyun
    Yeah. They're so pretty.
[00:34] Megumin
    You want one?
[00:35] Yunyun
    Yeah.
[00:39] Nerimaki
    And Megumin picked it out for you? Wow.
[00:43] Yunyun
    Yeah! She said this one was better!
[00:46] Megumin
    Don't get the wrong idea!
[00:48] Megumin
    You were taking way too long
    to make up your mind,

    so I simply pointed at the
    one I thought was the best!

    What is with you today? Honestly!
[00:59] Megumin
    Now, Yunyun...
[01:00] Megumin
    I bet you're going to say,
    "Time for another duel!" again today.
[01:03] Megumin
    Well, I've thought up a delightful game!

    Take your precious dagger,

    and stab between my fingers as many
    times and as quickly as possible!

[03:28] Megumin
    Oh, my! You're covered in dirt.
[03:32] Megumin
    I thought you were supposed
    to watch the house.
[03:35] Megumin
    Were you playing outside again?
[03:37] Komekko
    Yep! I beat up the newspaper guy,
    and then I went and played.
[03:43] Megumin
    Another victory? As befits my little sister.
[03:46] Komekko
    I found a toy, too,
    so I've been playing with it!
[03:50] Komekko
    You wanna try?

    Something on you smells good, Sis!
[03:56] Megumin
    Ah, as perceptive as ever, little sister.

    Yep! A big one.

    Such familial piety!
[04:26] Megumin
    Well done, Komekko.
[04:30] Komekko
    Hang on a sec!
[04:33] Megumin
    I wonder what she caught.
[04:36] Megumin
    Cicadas? Or crickets, perhaps?
[04:39] Megumin
    Beetles are a little earthy for my liking,
[04:42] Megumin
    but that can be fixed with deep-frying.

    That's...

    Look! A fierce ebon beast that I
    felled after a battle to the death!
[04:56] Megumin
    Well, you certainly did catch a big one.
[05:00] Komekko
    Yep! I worked hard!
[05:01] Komekko
    It fought back at first,
    but it settled down after I bit it!
[05:07] Megumin
    I'm glad you won the battle, but you really
    shouldn't go around biting things randomly.

    I shouldn't?

    M-Megumin!
[05:51] Megumin
    Good morning. What's that
    concerned look for?
[05:55] Yunyun
    Where'd she come from?
[05:57] Megumin
    She's my familiar.
[05:58] Dodonko
    A familiar?!
[05:59] Dodonko
    I thought wizards with familiars
    were strictly a fairy tale thing!
[06:06] Funifura
    Look! It's making such an
    adorable, but impudent face!
[06:09] Funifura
    It's terrifying! A perfect innocent-kitty act
[06:12] Funifura
    to hide her intention to steal
    our lunches for her mistress!
[06:16] Dodonko
    I hate to do it! But here's my lunch...
[06:20] Megumin
    That should make feeding
    her a lot more affordable.
[06:23] Megumin
    This level of popularity, though...
    Maybe she has some kind of charm magic?
[06:30] Yunyun
    She's so fluffy...
[06:35] Nerimaki
    So, did you name her yet?
[06:38] Megumin
    Not yet, no.
[06:39] Arue
    Familiar or not, are you sure it was
    a good idea to bring her to school?
[06:43] Megumin
    My home environment poses some threats
[06:45] Megumin
    that make me uncomfortable
    leaving her there alone.
[06:48] Dodonko
    Wait, what threats?
[06:49] Yunyun
    She's so cute... but will
    our teacher say it's okay?
[06:56] Pucchin
    Denied.
[06:57] Megumin
    Sir, this cat is my familiar,
    who feeds off of my magical power!
[07:02] Megumin
    If we're separated,
    she'll die in short order.
[07:04] Pucchin
    Denied. You can't even use magic,
    and you're claiming to have a familiar?
[07:08] Pucchin
    The school's rules say no
    familiars and no snacks.
[07:11] Pucchin
    Go on, take it back to where you found it.
[07:14] Megumin
    Sir! You are looking at a
    fragmented aspect of my soul,
[07:17] Megumin
    the incarnation of my dark side!
[07:18] Megumin
    We cannot be separated!
[07:21] Pucchin
    What? A fragmented aspect of your soul?
[07:24] Megumin
    Not only that, but if we're separated,
    she'll go berserk, grow gigantic, and—
[07:29] Pucchin
    All right, I'll allow it!
[07:30] Megumin
    Yes, she'll unleash a mysterious
    dark matter on the—
[07:33] Megumin
    Wait, really?
[07:35] Pucchin
    That one sounded pretty good, after all.
[07:38] Pucchin
    Megumin, you get ten points!
[07:40] Pucchin
    Besides, I've got a feeling this
    will be good, so I'll allow it.
[07:45] Megumin
    Well, thank you very much.
[07:48] Pucchin
    Now that we've settled this familiar
    matter, let's begin class...
[07:53] Pucchin
    is what I'd normally say, but today's
    lesson will be a little special.
[07:57] Megumin
    A special lesson?
[07:59] Pucchin
    The seal on one of our
    village's tourist attractions,
[08:02] Pucchin
    the tomb of the Dark God, is weakening.
[08:04] Pucchin
    This has caused the monsters in
    the area to become more active.
[08:08] Pucchin
    Simmer down, now!
[08:10] Pucchin
    The village's unemployed...
[08:12] Pucchin
    I mean, our brave and otherwise
    unoccupied residents
[08:15] Pucchin
    have dealt with the dangerous monsters.
[08:16] Pucchin
    Any that are left will be on the weak side.
[08:19] Pucchin
    Which is why...
[08:22] Pucchin
    You will all take part in the traditional
[08:24] Pucchin
    Crimson Demon augmentation surge,
    in order to raise your levels quickly!
[08:28] Pucchin
    I expect to see you all in
    the courtyard in 30 minutes!
[08:32] Pucchin
    Figure out your groups
    beforehand, also! That is all!
[08:38] Unmarked ad-lib
    I guess we've gotta make groups...
[08:40] Unmarked ad-lib
    With only 30 minutes to figure
    it out? Better be quick.
[08:43] Megumin
    What is it?
[08:44] Yunyun
    W-Well.... it's a group
    activity, apparently...
[08:48] Megumin
    And what of it?
[08:50] Yunyun
    Well... you see...
[08:53] Arue
    Megumin, if you don't have a partner,
    would you care to join me?
[08:57] Megumin
    That's fine.
[09:02] Megumin
    Good grief... Yunyun, this time—
[09:05] Funifura
    Hey, Yunyun! Wanna be in our group?
[09:08] Dodonko
    You're usually left out. You should join us.
[09:11] Yunyun
    A-Are you sure?
[09:13] Funifura
    Of course. You're our classmate, right?
[09:14] Dodonko
    So we're basically friends.
[09:16] Yunyun
    F-Friends?!
[09:17] Funifura
    Come on, let's go.
[09:19] Yunyun
    Sure!
[09:25] Arue
    So this...
[09:27] Arue
    is cuckolding.
[09:28] Megumin
    That's not what it is!
[09:32] Pucchin
    All right, time for the
    special lesson to begin.
[09:35] Pucchin
    If you don't have your own
    weapon, use one of these.
[09:46] Pucchin
    We Crimson Demons can use our magical power
    to temporarily amplify our body's strength!
[09:52] Pucchin
    As long as you focus your mind,
    this ability should come naturally.
[09:56] Pucchin
    You go first, Arue.
[10:00] Arue
    Magical power within...
    travel the paths of my blood,
[10:04] Arue
    and grant my limbs great strength!
[10:10] Class
    Wow!
[10:14] Yunyun
    S-Sir! These are all hollow,
    and really light.
[10:20] Pucchin
    Minus five points, Yunyun.
[10:27] Pucchin
    We will now perform the
    Crimson Demon secret rite,
[10:31] Pucchin
    the augmentation surge.
[10:32] Pucchin
    Freeze Bind!
[10:40] Pucchin
    All right, now slay this thing.
[10:43] Yunyun
    Augmentation surge?
[10:44] Yunyun
    And it's just... beating a
    monster that's held in place?
[10:48] Pucchin
    It's on the verge of dying thanks
    to my magic anyway. Relax!
[10:52] Pucchin
    Now, who will be the champion to claim
    victory over this abominable monster?!
[11:03] Megumin
    The first blow should be struck
    by the most prodigious.
[11:06] Megumin
    Consider it done!
[11:08] Yunyun
    Megumin!
[11:09] Pucchin
    That's the spirit. No wonder
    you're top of the class.
[11:13] Pucchin
    All right, I need to prepare
    the rest of the ritual,
[11:16] Pucchin
    so make sure to boost those levels.
[11:20] Yunyun
    H-Hey... Are you really going to do this?
[11:23] Megumin
    As sad as it makes me,
[11:24] Megumin
    this is our fate as Crimson Demons,
    whose lives are a battlefield.
[11:27] Megumin
    Being able to level up just by
    finishing off a near-dead monster...
[11:31] Megumin
    Easy!
[11:34] Megumin
    Now, servant of great evil.
    Open your ears to my requiem,
[11:38] Megumin
    and fall into eternal slumber!
[11:46] Megumin
    W-Wait! It's not weakened at all!
[11:50] Megumin
    Damn you! Insolent cold-blooded fiend!

    What is a dangerous monster
    like that doing here?!
[13:38] Arue
    Most likely, one of the
    petrified ornaments got loose.
[13:42] Yunyun
    What exactly is a petrified ornament?!
[13:44] Arue
    The hot new hobby among some
    of the adults, apparently.
[13:47] Nerimaki
    Now that you mention it...
[13:56] Megumin
    Why can't those people ever
    do anything helpful?!
[14:03] Bukkorori
    Burning Flash!
[14:14] Megmin
    Wh-What was that?
[14:19] Bukkorori
    Hey! I thought I finally heard
    a familiar voice. It's Megumin!
[14:23] Megumin
    B-Bukkorori?!
[14:24] Dodonko
    Wait, who is this?
[14:26] Yunyun
    I think he's...
[14:28] Bukkorori
    Are you girls friends with Megumin?
[14:32] Bukkorori
    I am called Bukkorori!
[14:34] Bukkorori
    Arch wizard, and wielder of advanced magic!
[14:37] Bukkorori
    The son of the foremost cobbler
    among the Crimson Demons,
[14:40] Bukkorori
    and he who shall inherit the shoe shop!
[14:43] Bukkorori
    So, would you girls mind
    hauling me out of here?
[14:47] Megumin
    I'm more curious about what you're doing in
    the middle of the woods, and also, in a hole.
[14:52] Bukkorori
    It's all for Soketto.
[14:54] Arue
    Soketto, as in the foremost
    Crimson Demon beauty?
[14:59] Yunyun
    Right. And Bukkorori here is,
    er... Soketto's stalker.
[15:03] Bukkorori
    I'm not a stalker!
    I'm just honest about my love.
[15:08] Bukkorori
    Yes, it was for that very love
    that I dug this pitfall.
[15:12] Bukkorori
    Soketto comes to this forest
    every day, by herself, to train.
[15:15] Bukkorori
    She's beautiful, cute, and strong, too?!
    You're cheating, Soketto, my dear!
[15:20] Bukkorori
    Now, she prefers to use
    lightning attack magic,
[15:23] Bukkorori
    which tends to leave you blinded
    right after the flash, right?
[15:27] Bukkorori
    Which means it'd be perfectly natural
    for her to fall into a hole that I dug
[15:31] Bukkorori
    without even realizing it!
[15:33] Bukkorori
    She can't use Teleport yet, after all.
[15:36] Bukkorori
    I'm sure she'll be stuck, with no way out.
[15:38] Bukkorori
    Which is when I arrive to save her!
[15:41] Bukkorori
    It was a lot of work to get it
    to just the right depth, y'know.
[15:45] Bukkorori
    See?
[15:47] Bukkorori
    Just within arm's reach, right?
[15:51] Girls
    Ew!
[15:53] Girls
    Anyway, I forgot that I can't use
    Teleport yet either, and so here I am.
[16:01] Girls
    Now, girls, please pull me to freedom!
[16:06] Dodonko
    That's just plain creepy.
[16:07] Funifura
    Unbelievable...
[16:08] Yunyun
    Gross.
[16:09] Bukkorori
    B-But why?!
[16:11] Bukkorori
    I just wanted a legitimate
    way to hold Soketto's hand!
[16:15] Arue
    If only you could redo your
    life from the fetal stage.
[16:18] Bukkorori
    From a fetus?!
[16:19] Megumin
    This is a fine place for a landfill.
[16:21] Bukkorori
    Whoa, hang on! Don't leave me!
[16:23] Bukkorori
    Help me out of here, at least!
[16:25] Bukkorori
    Aw, come on! Please! Hey!
[16:37] Yunyun
    O-Oh, no! The village!
    What's everyone doing?!
[16:41] Dodonko
    No way!
[16:45] Pucchin
    Light of Saber!
[16:52] Headmaster
    Prized students of our academy...
[16:55] Dodonko
    Teacher!
[16:56] Pucchin
    You girls all right?
[16:57] Yunyun
    W-We are!
[16:59] Yunyun
    But the village... There's a horde
    of gargoyles attacking the village!
[17:02] Nerimaki
    If this keeps up...
[17:04] Pucchin
    Right...
[17:06] Headmaster
    Who could have predicted my ornamental
    gargoyles causing this disaster?
[17:11] Arue
    Is this the curse of the crimson eyes?
[17:13] Arue
    Or perhaps judgment
    delivered to man in his arrogance?
[17:18] Headmaster
    My dear students, worry not.
[17:20] Headmaster
    Before you stands the battle-hardened
    Lord of the Red Prison!
[17:27] Pucchin
    And it is not only us who head
    into this dance of death!
[17:31] Chekera
    I am called Chekera!
[17:33] Chekera
    Arch wizard and owner of the foremost
    clothing store among the Crimson Demons!
[17:37] Shikobei
    I am called Shikobei!
[17:38] Shikobei
    Arch wizard and the foremost fisherman
    among the Crimson Demons!
[17:41] Chakamiya
    I am called Chakamiya!
[17:43] Chakamiya
    Arch wizard and owner of the foremost
    bakery among the Crimson Demons!
[17:46] Torosuke
    I am called Torosuke!
[17:47] Torosuke
    Arch wizard and owner of the foremost
    café among Crimson Demons!
[17:52] Adults
    The time has come to pool
    our collective power!
[17:55] Adults
    Light of Saber!
[17:58] Headmaster
    King of the storm! The time has come
    to display your despotic grandeur!
[18:02] Headmaster
    Inferno!
[18:04] Pucchin
    Infernal flames that consume creation!
    Scorch the foes before me into oblivion!
[18:09] Pucchin
    Energy Ignition!
[18:17] Funifura
    W-Wow!
[18:19] Dodonko
    They're blowing those gargoyles
    away as if they were ants!
[18:21] Arue
    All who stand in defiance of the
    crimson eyes are reduced to cinders!
[18:27] Megumin
    That's advanced magic...
[18:29] Nerimaki
    We'll be learning amazing magic like
    that before we graduate, won't we?
[18:34] Megumin
    It's true that these spells
    are all impressive.
[18:37] Megumin
    Devastatingly so. And yet...
[18:40] Megumin
    This isn't it. It's not what I want!
[18:45] Megumin
    Heat that burns your skin,
[18:48] Megumin
    a shock wave that leaves you trembling,
[18:50] Megumin
    the scent of blasted earth...
[18:52] Megumin
    Glaring light that stabs the eyes,
    and the painful smoke!
[18:56] Megumin
    Compared to the magic she used...
[18:58] Megumin
    This is completely different,
    compared to explosion magic!
[19:02] Torosuke
    Tornado!
[19:04] Shikobei
    Earth Shaker!
[19:05] Chakamiya
    Call of Thunderstorm!
[19:11] Nerimaki
    H-Huh?
[19:14] Nerimaki
    My family's pub... is on fire?
[19:17] Headmaster
    Crimson Laser!
[19:22] Headmaster
    Laser! Laser! Laser! Laser!
[19:23] Nerimaki
    Whoa, hold up!
[19:25] Funifura
    Uh, teachers? Stop!
[19:27] Yunyun
    You've done enough!
[19:29] Pucchin
    Dimension Hell Break!
[19:36] Pucchin
    Burn, burn! The bonfire of
    celebration is at hand!
[19:50] Pucchin
    Our beautiful village...
[19:53] Headmaster
    After surviving for countless
    eons, the final paradise...
[19:57] Headmaster
    our utopia, once called the
    treasure of Dragon's Peak...
[20:02] Headmaster
    has been reduced to this!
[20:04] Nerimaki
    This... was our storefront decoration...
[20:11] Pucchin
    A pox upon the Dark God!
[20:13] Pucchin
    It's trampled our peaceful, modest lives!
[20:18] Yunyun
    Uh, I'm pretty sure you all were
    the ones mostly responsible...
[20:22] Headmaster
    At the hands of wicked creatures,
[20:25] Headmaster
    the sky has been dyed red,
[20:27] Headmaster
    the earth has been rent asunder,
    and the water has turned foul.
[20:31] Headmaster
    But our Crimson Demon blood cannot
    be allowed to die out here!
[20:35] Headmaster
    This is a trial we must overcome!
[20:39] Pucchin
    Headmaster...
[20:59] Funifura
    It's pretty impressive that they were able
[21:01] Funifura
    to rebuild the village after
    a single day, huh, Megumin?
[21:05] Nerimaki
    But the headmaster and the others
[21:07] Nerimaki
    got chewed out by the parental association
    after what happened, Megumin!
[21:11] Dodonko
    Of course they did! My mom was complaining
    about having to do overnight repairs.
[21:16] Yunyun
    Is that really the problem?
[21:18] Dodonko
    Lack of sleep is worse for your
    skin than gargoyles, huh, Megumin?
[21:23] Megumin
    Hold on one minute here.
[21:26] Megumin
    Why is this black furball
    being called Megumin?
[21:29] Arue
    Well, she's your familiar,
    and a fragment of your soul, right?
[21:33] Nerimaki
    And since she doesn't have a name,
    it makes sense to call her Megumin.
[21:37] Nerimaki
    Right, Megumin?
[21:38] Megumin
    Please cut that out! Seriously, stop!
[21:41] Funifura
    What's with you?
[21:42] Funifura
    Did your alter ego end up taking your
    intellect and reason along with your charm?
[21:47] Dodonko
    Isn't she awful, Megumin?

    Aw, I knew it!
[00:15] Yunyun
    I guess I lose again today.
[00:23] Yunyun
    Ow!
[00:24] Yunyun
    What was that for?!
[00:25] Yunyun
    You're the one who wanted to compete to see
[00:28] Yunyun
    who was the more compact,
    environmentally-friendly girl, Megumin!
[00:31] Megumin
    Perhaps you should ask your own
    blighted heart that question!
[00:34] Teacher
    M-Megumin, stress isn't great
    for growth, you know.
[00:39] Teacher
    Oh! You're here, too, Megumin.
[00:43] Teacher
    One second. I've got something
    nice for you to eat.
[00:46] Arue
    Megumin is as cute as ever today.

[02:39] Megumin
    Would someone please give
    this thing a name already?!
[02:43] Yunyun
    I-I get what you mean,
[02:45] Yunyun
    but we've kind of already got it
    in our heads that this is Megumin.
[02:48] Yunyun
    See? She's even warmed up to me
    enough that I can pick her up.
[02:53] Yunyun
    Maybe it'd be better if you were
    the one to change your name inste—
[02:57] Yunyun
    Ow, ow, ow, ow!
[02:59] Megumin
    You traitor! You don't care if your
    rival's name changes, is that it?!
[03:03] Yunyun
    Then how about Ink?
    Little Ink.... H-How's that sound?
[03:08] Yunyun
    Because, y'know... she's a black cat.
[03:15] Yunyun
    No?
[03:16] Funifura
    Might be a good idea. Weird
    names are easier to remember.
[03:20] Dodonko
    Yeah, as weird as it is.
[03:21] Yunyun
    I-It's weird?
[03:23] Megumin
    Well, I suppose this freakish "Ink"
    will serve as a label for now.
[03:28] Megumin
    And should you ever actually
    become my familiar,
[03:31] Megumin
    I'll provide you with a
    nicer, more sensible name.
[03:35] Pucchin
    Attention!
[03:37] Pucchin
    We've got word that the monsters in
    the area are getting ornery again.
[03:41] Pucchin
    All the adults are going to
    be investigating that today,
[03:43] Pucchin
    so afternoon class will be free
    study in the library! That is all!
[04:01] Funifura
    Study sessions don't earn you any skill points,
    so they feel like such a waste of time.
[04:05] Dodonko
    I can't wait to learn magic.
[04:07] Dodonko
    Like the adults used the other day.
[04:12] Nerimaki
    Knowing you, Arue, I bet you have
    enough skill points saved up
[04:15] Nerimaki
    to use advanced magic already.
[04:17] Arue
    Not quite yet, no.
[04:19] Arue
    But maybe Megumin...
[04:24] Megumin
    "Users of explosion magic are
    often called 'landmine mages,'
[04:29] Megumin
    and are frequently excluded
    from adventuring parties."
[04:35] Megumin
    I've come here so many times, and at some
    point learned everything there is within.
[04:46] Megumin
    The Unfettered Lord?
[04:53] Megumin
    Yunyun.
[04:55] Megumin
    Could you hand that book over to me?
[04:58] Yunyun
    Well, I don't mind, but I didn't
    know you read stuff like this.
[05:04] Megumin
    Fish Are Friends?
[05:06] Megumin
    This is clearly not what I meant!
[05:09] Megumin
    I was talking about The Unfettered Lord!
[05:11] Yunyun
    What? You like this series, too?
[05:13] Yunyun
    It's such a treat!
    I've read it so many times!
[05:17] Yunyun
    Volume two's climax is so—
[05:18] Megumin
    Cease with the spoilers, please!
[05:20] Megumin
    And why are you even
    looking at the other one?
[05:23] Megumin
    Was there nothing that
    applied to mammals, at least?
[05:25] Yunyun
    But look here!
[05:27] Yunyun
    It says that cacti have hearts, too!
[05:30] Yunyun
    That means you can be friends with plants...
[05:33] Yunyun
    Cut it out! What did I do
    to earn that pitying gaze?!
[05:37] Megumin
    Honestly... If you're that
    desperate for friends,
[05:41] Megumin
    just take back that claim
    of being my rival, and...
[05:44] Funifura
    Hey, Yunyun, are you reading
    those weird books again?
[05:48] Funifura
    If you want friends that bad, how about us?
[05:52] Yunyun
    What did you just say?!
[05:53] Yunyun
    Just now! Say that again?!
[05:55] Funifura
    Okay, that's close! Too close!
[05:57] Funifura
    I-I'm just suggesting we could be friends...
[06:01] Megumin
    If it isn't Funikura and Dodonko.
[06:03] Megumin
    A friend isn't something
    you can just decide to be.
[06:07] Megumin
    Friendship happens naturally.
[06:08] Funifura
    My name is Funifura! Would it kill
    you to learn your classmates' names?
[06:12] Yunyun
    I-It's an honor to be joining you!
    Please, treat me kindly!
[06:16] Funifura
    Uh, do you... understand
    how friendship works?
[06:19] Funifura
    You do, don't you?
[06:23] Funifura
    Anyway, I'm pretty sure this guy is into me.
[06:27] Funifura
    But the thing is, there's this guy
    from my past life that I promised
[06:32] Funifura
    to be with if we were reborn, right?
[06:33] Funifura
    So wouldn't that be, like, cheating?
[06:36] Dodonko
    Oh, it's fine!
[06:37] Dodonko
    I came up with a scenario
    where my prince charming
[06:40] Dodonko
    is imprisoned at the bottom
    of the deepest dungeon...
[06:42] Dodonko
    Er, I mean, I'm pretty sure he is there,
[06:44] Dodonko
    so I want to learn magic fast
    so I can go and save him.
[06:48] Megumin
    There is something incredibly
    cringeworthy about this conversation.
[06:52] Yunyun
    I-I had no idea.
[06:54] Yunyun
    You two are amazing!
[06:56] Megumin
    Eh, I'll leave it be.
[07:16] Megumin
    You little—
[07:19] Funifura
    How about you, Yunyun?
[07:20] Funifura
    Do you have a type—
[07:22] Funifura
    I mean, what was your lover
    like in your past life?
[07:25] Yunyun
    Me?
[07:26] Yunyun
    I-I think I'd like someone
    quiet and mild-mannered,
[07:29] Yunyun
    who's nice enough to hear
    me out and really listen.
[07:34] Funifura
    Well, that's bland.
[07:35] Dodonko
    It really is.
[07:37] Funifura
    Huh? Where'd the hair tie go?
[07:44] Megumin
    Need ammo...
[07:49] Megumin
    Gonna borrow this!
[08:01] Megumin
    Victory is mine!
[08:03] Yunyun
    Megumin!
SIGN    KONOSUBA - An Explosion on This Wonderful World!
[08:08] Yunyun
    Were you seriously snapping hair
    ties for fun?! Are you a child?!
[08:11] Megumin
    You've got it all wrong! There was a spider!
[08:13] Megumin
    He captured my attention with
    his taunting, and, well...
[08:16] Yunyun
    "Well" what?!
[08:18] Yunyun
    I've never had a friend do my hair before!
[08:21] Funifura
    L-Look, Megumin does seem sorry,
    and we can always do your hair again...
[08:26] Yunyun
    I'm so sorry, Funifura!
[08:28] Yunyun
    You did such a wonderful job... I was
    ready to never change my hair again...
[08:32] Funifura
    Th-There's no need for that, seriously!
[08:35] Funifura
    It's too much! A little too much attachment!
[08:39] Bukkorori
    You girls seem to be enjoying
    your adolescence.
[08:44] Yunyun
    Bukkorori?
[08:46] Funifura
    What's the village NEET doing here?
[08:48] Megumin
    You managed to learn Teleport, then?
[08:50] Bukkorori
    Indeed!
[08:51] Bukkorori
    All thanks to you girls leaving me to
    struggle with that extreme situation.
[08:56] Bukkorori
    On that day, something within me awakened...
[08:59] Nerimaki
    But wait, in terms of
    Teleport destinations...
[09:03] Arue
    Right. You can only register three
    readily-available locations.
[09:07] Funifura
    So why the library?
[09:09] Bukkorori
    Nostalgia, mostly.
[09:11] Bukkorori
    I used to subtly check out the books
    that I knew Soketto had checked out.
[09:17] Bukkorori
    She's quite an enthusiastic learner, you see.
[09:20] Bukkorori
    So in addition to fortune-telling books,
[09:22] Bukkorori
    she'd read self-improvement,
    and romance novels...
[09:24] Bukkorori
    And a few titles I'd be embarrassed
    to mention out loud.
[09:27] Bukkorori
    But one day, she suddenly
    stopped visiting the library.
[09:32] Bukkorori
    It seems she was heading into the woods to
    train every day, so I started doing the same.
[09:37] Bukkorori
    Oh, but of course, my other Teleport
    location is in front of her house!
[09:41] Bukkorori
    I can't exactly go inside, after all!
[09:43] Nerimaki
    Wait... So he's a stalker?
[09:46] Dodonko
    We've gotta tell someone! Report him!
[09:47] Yunyun
    B-But the adults are all busy
    with the investigation...
[09:51] Bukkorori
    Investigation? What investigation?
    No one told me anything.
[09:55] Bukkorori
    Anyway, I'm here today to
    ask you girls for advice—
[09:59] Arue
    Forget about it, and rest. Eternally.
[10:01] Nerimaki
    Let's bury him!
[10:03] Bukkorori
    Now, hang on—
[10:05] Bukkorori
    Whoa, that's—
[10:07] Bukkorori
    That's a lot! That's a lot of books!
    Too many!
[10:10] Bukkorori
    I didn't want to get lost
    in the stacks like this!
[10:12] Bukkorori
    Just wait a sec! Hear me out!
[10:22] Megumin
    I've known Bukkorori since I was little,
[10:25] Megumin
    and he has always been
    worthless to the core.
[10:27] Yunyun
    Doesn't that make him kind
    of like a brother to you?
[10:32] Yunyun
    Aren't you a little attached?
[10:34] Megumin
    Not at all, no.
[10:37] Bukkorori
    My soul sisters...
[10:51] Bukkorori
    Soketto is as beautiful as ever today.
[10:54] Bukkorori
    I wish I was trash so that
    I could be swept up at her feet.
[10:57] Megumin
    As a NEET, aren't you
    basically trash already?
[11:00] Yunyun
    M-Megumin!
[11:01] Megumin
    And to be hung up on the Crimson
    Demon's foremost beauty,
[11:04] Megumin
    when you're nothing but a
    completely unremarkable NEET.
[11:08] Megumin
    We should go. There's no hope here.
[11:11] Bukkorori
    I'm begging you two!
[11:13] Bukkorori
    Go and ask Soketto what her type is for me!
[11:16] Megumin
    She's a fortune-teller! Just have
    her read your romantic fortune!
[11:21] Bukkorori
    Is that some kind of NEETist joke?!
[11:23] Bukkorori
    If I could afford it, I'd get my
    fortune read every damn day!
[11:26] Bukkorori
    Look, I'll treat you! Next time I get
    some cash, I'll treat you to a meal!
[11:30] Yunyun
    Um, that really isn't the issue...
[11:33] Megumin
    And you'll treat Komekko, too?
[11:34] Bukkori
    But of course, my sister!
[11:36] Yunyun
    Megumin?!
[11:37] Megumin
    I think the trick is just creating
    the initial opportunity.
[11:57] Megumin
    Listen well.
[11:58] Megumin
    First, Yunyun, you'll threaten Soketto
[12:00] Megumin
    with that almost entirely
    ornamental dagger of yours.
[12:04] Megumin
    That's when Bukkorori,
    who is coincidentally walking by...
[12:06] Bukkorori
    ...saves her in the nick of time!
[12:10] Yunyun
    No way! This is stupid! Are you stupid?!
[12:13] Megumin
    Then the dagger is completely ornamental?
[12:15] Megumin
    If you're not going to use it, it'll just rust.
[12:17] Yunyun
    I-I just don't see the need!
[12:20] Yunyun
    Beating monsters in this area
    offers a pretty high bounty,
[12:23] Yunyun
    so he could use that money to
    have her read his fortune...
[12:26] Megumin/Bukkorori
    Rejected.
[12:27] Megumin
    As Crimson Demons, we must strive
    for the cooler alternative.
[12:30] Bukkorori
    Bingo.
[12:34] Bukkorori
    Here.
[12:38] Bukkorori
    Light of Reflection!
[12:43] Bukkorori
    Okay, I'm counting on you!
[12:45] Yunyun
    Why go invisible?!
[12:46] Megumin
    Obviously so he can save her with
    the coolest timing possible.
[13:01] Megumin
    I-Is that NEET...
[13:26] Soketto
    What is your problem?!
    Day after day, you do this!
[13:29] Bukkorori
    I-I promise, it wasn't anything untoward!
[13:32] Bukkorori
    It was genuine intellectual
    curiosity, as a mage,
[13:35] Bukkorori
    to know which colors are popular
    among Crimson Demon women!
[13:38] Megumin
    Bukkorori has something he
    wants to tell you, Soketto.
[13:42] Bukkorori
    Wha—
[13:42] Soketto
    Really? What a coincidence.
    I wanted to tell you something, too.
[13:49] Bukkorori
    M-Me, too... Soketto, I've always—
[13:52] Soketto
    I had no idea you hated me so much!
[13:54] Soketto
    You should've said something sooner!
[13:57] Soketto
    I don't know what it is
    that bothers you so much,
[14:00] Soketto
    but it's cowardly how you
    follow me around everywhere!
[14:02] Soketto
    And to go so far as to try to ambush me?!
[14:05] Bukkorori
    N-No! This... It's not what you...
[14:19] Bukkorori
    One-Punch Bears don't usually travel in packs!
[14:22] Yunyun
    Th-They said that the monsters
    have become more active
[14:25] Yunyun
    since the seal on the Dark God is weakening!
[14:28] Megumin
    Now, Yunyun, the time has come for that
    stylish dagger of yours to go to work.
[14:32] Yunyun
    Megumin?!
[14:33] Soketto
    It's all right.
[14:35] Soketto
    You two stay behind me.
[14:38] Bukkorori
    I've got this.
[14:44] Bukkorori
    I want to protect your smile.
[14:48] Bukkorori
    Diabolic flames, run wild!
[14:51] Bukkorori
    Inferno!
[15:02] Yunyun
    Soketto?!
[15:05] Megumin
    How stupid can you be?!
[15:07] Bukkorori
    I mean, I only know advanced magic,
    so it's hard to hold back!
[15:16] Soketto
    Every single day with you...
[15:20] Soketto
    But this time, it ends.
[15:28] Soketto
    Honestly...
[15:30] Soketto
    If you were desperate enough to enter the
    woods to earn cash for a fortune-reading,
[15:34] Soketto
    you could have just told me, and I would've
    given you your first session for free.
[15:37] Bukkorori
    Really?!
[15:45] Soketto
    Well, I was almost burnt
    to death in the process,
[15:48] Soketto
    but you did technically save
    me from a pack of monsters.
[15:52] Soketto
    So, what did you want to know about?
[15:55] Bukkorori
    W-Well, I was thinking...
    my future girlfriend...
[15:59] Bukkorori
    No, wife!
[16:01] Bukkorori
    Or maybe, the person who'll
    fall in love with me?
[16:04] Bukkorori
    Oh, I don't know which to choose!
[16:07] Soketto
    Your future lover, in other words.
[16:10] Soketto
    The woman you're likely to end up with
    should appear in the crystal ball soon.
[16:19] Soketto
    It shouldn't be long now...
[16:27] Bukkorori
    I don't see anything...
[16:30] Soketto
    H-Huh?
[16:32] Soketto
    That's odd. Everyone usually has 
    at least one person who appears...
[16:41] Bukkorori
    Wh-What is this? It hurts way worse
    than if she had just rejected me!
[16:47] Megumin
    I know he's a NEET, but even I feel bad now.
[16:50] Yunyun
    What should we do?
    I wasn't expecting it to be this bad.
[16:53] Bukkorori
    I can hear you both, y'know!
[16:54] Bukkorori
    Could you rake my soul over hot coals
    somewhere I don't have to hear it?!
[16:59] Soketto
    I-It's all right!
    My fortunes aren't always correct.
[17:04] Soketto
    I tried to predict the weather
    once, when I was little,
[17:06] Soketto
    and even though I got "mostly cloudy," five
    minutes later, there was a slight drizzle...
[17:10] Bukkorori
    The world sucks!
[17:19] Soketto
    As much of a failure as he is,
    he seems kind of interesting.
[17:23] Soketto
    It's strange.
[17:25] Yunyun
    Um...
[17:27] Soketto
    What is it?
[17:28] Yunyun
    U-Um, have you ever read your
    own fortune, Soketto?
[17:33] Yunyun
    About your destined mate, for example...
[17:35] Soketto
    Fortune-tellers can't
    predict their own future.
[17:40] Soketto
    When it comes to my own fate,
    the crystal ball won't show anything.
[17:45] Soketto
    Why do you ask?
[17:47] Yunyun
    N-No reason.
[17:48] Yunyun
    I'm just struck by how, sometimes,
    you really have to put things into words.
[17:57] Unmarked ADLibs
    Am I the only one who gets
    really hungry right about now?
[17:59] Unmarked ADLibs
    Tell me about it!
[18:02] Unmarked ADLibs
    I want something soft to eat...
[18:04] Unmarked ADLibs
    You need only express how you feel!
[18:05] Unmarked ADLibs
    Got it!
[18:06] Yunyun
    Do you think things will work
    out for those two someday?
[18:11] Megumin
    Hard to say. Soketto's fortunes do tend to
    come true, but the future is malleable.
[18:18] Yunyun
    If only he could be honest and
    say he wants to get to know her.
[18:22] Megumin
    I honestly think Bukkorori needs to
    find a job before anything else.
[18:27] Megumin
    He still owes me a meal.
[18:30] Yunyun
    I've always wanted to ask, Megumin.
    Is food really all you want?
[18:34] Yunyun
    Have you never thought about
    finding someone nice?
[18:38] Megumin
    I have grand ambitions. That doesn't
    afford time for romantic tomfoolery.
[18:43] Yunyun
    But you want to be an adventurer, right?
[18:46] Yunyun
    If you spend all your time with someone
    from your party, helping each other out...
[18:50] Megumin
    True enough. And I do hear that's
    how a lot of marriages come to be.
[18:55] Megumin
    Whatever the case,
    if I were to fall for someone,
[18:58] Megumin
    I'm sure he'd be a dashing, peerless hero!
[19:03] Yunyun
    I wouldn't be too surprised if you
    ended up with someone normal.
[19:10] Pucchin
    Attention!
[19:11] Pucchin
    So, after examining the Dark God's tomb,
[19:13] Pucchin
    we've learned that lower level monsters
    have begun to wander the vicinity!
[19:16] Pucchin
    Until the seal is fully restored, nobody
    walks home alone! Use the buddy system!
[19:20] Pucchin
    That is all!
[19:22] Yunyun
    Huh? W-Walking home with someone?
[19:30] Megumin
    If you insist...
[19:32] Funifura
    Hey, Yunyun. You're probably
    headed home alone, right?
[19:35] Funifura
    Wanna walk with us?
[19:36] Dodonko
    You're the only one with a weapon, after all.
    I'd feel better knowing you're there.
[19:54] Yunyun
    M-Megumin!
[20:01] Megumin
    Weren't you going home with
    Funifura and Dodonko?
[20:05] Yunyun
    W-Well, you know... The monsters!
[20:08] Yunyun
    It's dangerous to go home alone.
    So I thought... w-we could...
[20:14] Megumin
    Are you serious about protecting
    me with that dagger?
[20:17] Yunyun
    Huh? Oh... Yeah! I am!
[20:21] Megumin
    I am the foremost prodigy
    among the Crimson Demons.
[20:24] Megumin
    And far more talented than you, Yunyun.
[20:26] Megumin
    I'd rather you not underestimate me.
[20:28] Yunyun
    Wh-What's the attitude for?
[20:29] Yunyun
    You used me as a shield from those
    One-Punch Bears the other day!
[20:41] Megumin
    Very well! It's time I settled
    things once and for all
[20:43] Megumin
    with my self-proclaimed rival, Yunyun!
[20:46] Yunyun
    S-Self-proclaimed?!
[20:47] Yunyun
    I mean, I can't deny that...
[20:49] Yunyun
    Okay, then! You can decide the
    contest, as usual, Megumin!
[21:03] Yunyun
    She scared me. It was just Ink, huh?
[21:08] Megumin
    She's lost some weight.
[21:09] Megumin
    I doubt I have to worry about
    Komekko trying to eat her anymore.
[21:21] Megumin
    Yunyun.
[21:24] Megumin
    Let's walk home together. We can
    pick up something to eat on the way.
[21:31] Yunyun
    R-Really?!
[21:33] Yunyun
    B-But we're rivals!
[21:37] Yunyun
    Rivals going home together
    would be weird, right?
[21:39] Yunyun
    B-Besides, you make it sound nice,
    but I know you'll just be after my food!
[21:45] Megumin
    Never mind, then.
[21:47] Yunyun
    Hey, wait!
[21:48] Yunyun
    T-Tomorrow! We can resume
    the rivalry tomorrow!

[00:04] Yunyun
    Good morning, Megumin.
[00:06] Yunyun
    Here you go.
[00:07] Megumin
    What is this?
[00:09] Megumin
    Do you have feelings for me or something?
[00:11] Megumin
    It's a little unsettling to suddenly
    have you lovingly prepare my lunch...
[00:16] Yunyun
    I'm not going to challenge you today,
    so I don't want you bugging me!
[00:20] Megumin
    You make it sound like I'm some ruffian
    who's always mugging you for your lunch.
[00:24] Yunyun
    I know I'm the one who always
    instigates the duels,
[00:27] Yunyun
    but you are kind of a ruffian.
[00:37] Pucchin
    Good morning, people.
[00:41] Megumin
    Something about Yunyun
    seems strange lately.
[00:44] Pucchin
    Monsters believed to be minions of the Dark
    God have been spotted around the village.
[00:51] Pucchin
    Which means we can no longer
    afford to take this lightly.
[00:56] Pucchin
    That being the case,
    impromptu though it might be,
[00:59] Pucchin
    the plan is to gather enough
    villagers to redo the seal.
[01:03] Pucchin
    The ritual will last from tomorrow
    evening until the morning after.
[01:07] Pucchin
    All right, let's go over
    the results of your tests.
[01:11] Pucchin
    As usual, our top three scorers will
    receive these skill-up potions.
[01:15] Pucchin
    In third place is Nerimaki!
[01:22] Megumin
    Four points until I can learn explosion
    magic, as I've long dreamed!
[01:27] Pucchin
    Second place, Arue.
[01:30] Pucchin
    First place, Megumin!
[01:33] Pucchin
    Well done, girls.
[01:35] Pucchin
    First period is going to
    be equipment crafting.
[01:38] Pucchin
    Head over to the home economics room!
[01:51] Yunyun
    Would you say something?!
    This is really awkward!
[01:54] Megumin
    What's gotten into you?
[01:56] Megumin
    I can't believe you weren't in the top three.
[01:59] Megumin
    If I remember correctly, you needed
    three points to learn advanced magic.
[02:04] Megumin
    And I need four...
[02:06] Megumin
    Is this fine by you?
[02:07] Megumin
    Wasting the lead that would give you
    the chance to graduate before me?
[02:11] Megumin
    Look, look here!
[02:12] Yunyun
    I'm not trying to compete. Not today.
[02:18] Megumin
    I see.
[02:25] Megumin
    Something is definitely
    off about Yunyun lately.

[04:00] Unmarked BG Adlib
    Seriously, it was the craziest thing!
[04:03] Funifura
    Hey! I heard that there's a
    Hero candidate in the village!
[04:07] Dodonko
    Oh, I heard about that!
[04:09] Dodonko
    To be more specific, 
    I actually met him yesterday!
[04:12] Dodonko
    He was hot, and pretty friendly!
[04:14] Dodonko
    And he's looking for a skilled mage
    to help defeat the Devil King!
[04:18] Megumin
    Anyone in the position to be named a
    Hero must be a quality human being.
[04:23] Megumin
    The kind who would show
    up in the heroic annals!
[04:27] Megumin
    One day, I'll be the kind of mage that can
    join the party of a hero candidate...
[04:33] Megumin
    A group that can overcome
    any kind of threat,
[04:36] Megumin
    who would never resort to cowardly
    tricks or cheap chicanery!
[04:39] Megumin
    Rising head-first to every challenge!
[04:42] Megumin
    And with my magic,
[04:44] Megumin
    I will obliterate the Devil King's generals
    or anyone else who stands in our way,
[04:47] Megumin
    as my name echoes across the entire world!
[04:54] Megumin
    And once the Devil King has been slain,
[04:58] Megumin
    I will ascend to the throne as
    the new Devil King... Megumin!
[05:06] Yunyun
    Megumin? Megumin!
[05:10] Yunyun
    What was that? You suddenly
    started cackling. You okay?
[05:14] Megumin
    I was so absorbed in important thoughts
    that I wasn't paying attention.
[05:17] Megumin
    Do you need something?
[05:19] Yunyun
    Well... I wanted to talk to you
    about something on the way home.
[05:35] Yunyun
    So, Megumin...
[05:38] Yunyun
    What do you think it means... to be friends?
[05:45] Megumin
    I've always known you had issues, Yunyun,
[05:48] Megumin
    but I didn't think you had
    no idea what friends were...
[05:52] Yunyun
    I know! I know what they are!
[05:54] Yunyun
    You go shopping together, and have fun...
[05:57] Yunyun
    Wait, no, that's not what I'm talking about!
[06:01] Yunyun
    For example, you always try
    to sponge off me, right?
[06:04] Yunyun
    But you never try to get money.
[06:07] Megumin
    Of course not. I realize there are
    some lines that shouldn't be crossed.
[06:11] Megumin
    Not to mention I'd hate for you
[06:13] Megumin
    to start making physical demands 
    in exchange for money.
[06:15] Yunyun
    I would do no such thing!
[06:17] Yunyun
    And to be honest, I thought that
    was the case. But Funifura-san...
[06:22] Megumin
    She asked for money?
[06:25] Yunyun
    No! It's not like that!
[06:28] Yunyun
    It's just...
[06:30] (Flashback) Dodonko
    And that's basically it.
    Funifura's cute little brother is sick.
[06:36] (Flashback) Dodonko
    But...
[06:37] (Flashback) Funifura
    Yeah. The thing is, we don't really
    have enough money for the medicine...
[06:43] (Flashback) Dodonko
    So I thought, as her friends,
    we should try and help!
[06:47] (Flashback) Dodonko
    So I was thinking we could
    raise money for her!
[06:51] (Flashback) Dodonko
    We can count on you, too, right,
    Yunyun? Our friend needs us!
[06:56] Yunyun
    But something about giving them
    money feels rude somehow...
[07:01] Yunyun
    I'm just not sure what to do.
[07:03] Yunyun
    What do you think, Megumin?
[07:05] Megumin
    Given that I never have money
    as a fundamental principle...
[07:10] Megumin
    I'd think of some other way to contribute.
[07:13] Yunyun
    Like what?
[07:14] Megumin
    For instance...
[07:16] Megumin
    My friend and I could wear masks
    and then raid an apothecary.
[07:20] Yunyun
    Wouldn't just loaning the money
    be less problematic than that?
[07:25] Megumin
    True friends don't simply offer charity!
[07:28] Megumin
    They endure trials together!
[07:31] Yunyun
    So you're saying, if you were really hungry,
[07:34] Yunyun
    you'd rather someone else starve with you
    instead of them sharing their food?
[07:38] Megumin
    No. Not even close.
[07:40] Megumin
    But, well, if a friend was truly in grave need,
[07:44] Megumin
    I don't think it's out of the
    question to loan them some money.
[07:47] Megumin
    Granted, I am in perpetual
    grave need, myself.
[07:49] Yunyun
    Trying to subtly get that across, huh?
[07:54] Yunyun
    But I get what you mean. Thanks.
[07:59] Megumin
    It's fine.
[08:03] Bukkorori
    Hey, Megumin, Yunyun.
[08:07] Megumin
    Why, if it isn't Bukkorori, who's still sulking
    over having been rejected by Soketto.
[08:11] Yunyun
    Shh!
[08:12] Bukkorori
    Don't "shh" so loudly. It's honestly more
    painful to see you try to avoid the subject.
[08:16] Bukkorori
    Besides, I never told her how I felt,
    so I didn't get rejected!
[08:20] Yunyun
    That's an optimistic approach.
[08:21] Bukkorori
    Honestly, the entire world
    is waiting for my awakening,
[08:24] Bukkorori
    so I shouldn't be hung up over romance.
[08:27] Megumin
    You mean the thing about
    the Dark God's minions?
[08:29] Bukkorori
    Yep.
[08:29] Megumin
    Wouldn't it be easier at this
    point to break the seal,
[08:33] Megumin
    and then have the entire village
    fight together to slay it?
[08:36] Bukkorori
    That idea did come up.
[08:38] Bukkorori
    But seeing as our ancestors went to the trouble
    of nabbing a Dark God from another region
[08:42] Bukkorori
    before transplanting it here
    and sealing it away...
[08:46] Yunyun
    Wait. Why would they do that?
[08:48] Bukkorori
    What do you mean, "why"?
[08:50] Bukkorori
    Doesn't the idea of a village with a
    Dark God sleeping beneath it sound cool?
[08:53] Megumin
    That should be obvious!
[08:55] Bukkorori
    There's other stuff, too, like ancient
    weapons that could destroy the world...
[08:59] Bukkorori
    And the goddess of vengeance and domination
    whose name has been forgotten.
[09:03] Bukkorori
    All kinds of sweet forbidden junk!
[09:04] Megumin
    As much trouble as they might cause,
[09:07] Megumin
    I have to admit forbidden weapons
    are quite the fascinating subject.
[09:10] Bukkorori
    Tell me about it!
[09:11] Yunyun
    Huh? You think so? So am I the only one who...
[09:17] MeguBukko
    ...doesn't get it.
[09:27] Megumin
    Komekko! I'm heading out.
[09:29] Komekko
    Have a good day!
[09:30] Megumin
    Be a good girl and watch the house, all right?
[09:33] Komekko
    'Kay!
[09:54] Funifura
    I really appreciate this, Yunyun.
    And I'll be sure to pay you back.
[09:59] Yunyun
    Oh, come on, it's fine!
    We're f-friends, right?
[10:02] Dodonko
    Class is starting.
[10:04] Funifura
    You can go on ahead, Yunyun.
[10:06] Yunyun
    O-Okay.
[10:12] Funifura
    My conscience is bothering me a little...
[10:14] Dodonko
    Yeah, I hear you.
[10:17] Megumin
    Then why ask for money in the first place?
[10:21] Dodonko
    Megumin! How long have you been there?
[10:23] Funifura
    How much did you hear?
[10:24] Megumin
    Starting around where you extorted her
    to submit to your perverted demands
[10:27] Megumin
    in exchange for keeping
    her dangerous secrets.
[10:30] Funifura
    That's not what happened!
[10:32] Funifura
    Look, my brother is sick,
    and we can't afford his medicine...
[10:36] Dodonko
    It's just a bit of fund-raising.
[10:39] Megumin
    Why not ask for my help, then?
[10:43] Megumin
    What? Are you that shocked at the
    idea I'd be willing to help others?
[10:48] Funfiura
    It's just... y'know...
    you're super poor, right?
[10:52] Dodonko
    Borrowing money from you
    is just a shade too far.
[10:56] Megumin
    You're dead!
[10:58] Funifura
    W-Well, then, do you have money to loan me?!
[11:02] Megumin
    Obviously I don't. Who in the world
    do you think you're talking to?
[11:05] FuniDonko
    This girl...
[11:07] Megumin
    It's just a matter of
    securing medication, yes?
[11:10] Dodonko
    Do you have something in mind?
[11:14] Megumin
    A simple matter for the Crimson
    Demons' foremost prodigy!
[11:20] Pucchin
    All right, time to begin magical
    item crafting class.
[11:24] Pucchin
    You're free to improvise on the ingredients,
    but I want to see some potions.
[11:36] Megumin
    Behold my sorcerous craftsmanship!
[11:44] Arue
    That looks interesting. I'd like to help.
[11:47] Megumin
    Did you finish already, Arue?
[11:49] Arue
    I did.
[11:50] Megumin
    I'd appreciate the help, then.
[12:00] Yunyun
    I won't let you!
[12:01] Megumin
    Would you get out of the way?
[12:03] Yunyun
    But the duxion is so cute!
[12:05] Megumin
    Cute as it is, it's still a monster.
[12:08] Megumin
    Do you realize how many harmless-looking
    monsters are actually quite dangerous?
[12:13] Yunyun
    I know, but...
[12:16] Arue
    Calm down, now. All we really
    need is the onion on its back.
[12:20] Megumin
    Feeling better now?
[12:23] Arue
    Onions are supposed to help with healing.
[12:25] Arue
    And the onions from duxions are
    supposed to be of the finest quality.
[12:35] Megumin
    Honestly, what kind of
    monster do you think I am?
[12:39] Megumin
    Even I can appreciate the
    preciousness of cute life.
[12:42] Yunyun
    I-I guess so. Sorry.
[12:45] Yunyun
    It's just, duxions are rare monsters
    that offer a lot of experience...
[12:50] Arue
    On top of being prized in gourmet cuisine.
[13:00] Yunyun
    Megumin, you jerk!
[13:07] Funifura
    What do you want with us
    now, duxion slayer?
[13:11] Megumin
    Call me that again and you'll
    see just how much I can slay.
[13:14] Dodonko
    Yunyun was sulking all day after
    what you pulled earlier.
[13:18] Megumin
    The two of you were the root cause
    of all this in the first place.
[13:22] Megumin
    A hand-made potion for treating illness.
[13:26] Megumin
    Go on, take it.
[13:31] Megumin
    This means you no longer need the
    money you borrowed from Yunyun, yes?
[13:34] Funifura
    H-Hang on a sec! There's no
    guarantee that this'll work...
[13:38] Megumin
    Doesn't matter.
[13:39] Megumin
    Frankly, I don't even care whether
    your little brother is sick or not.
[13:43] Dodonko
    We weren't lying!
[13:45] Megumin
    The thing I take exception to is
    exploiting the conscience of a lonely girl
[13:49] Megumin
    who's desperate for friends.
[13:52] Megumin
    Her intelligence is second only to my own.
[13:55] Megumin
    She is fully aware of what you were doing.
[13:58] Dodonko
    Don't get mad for real. You're scary.
[14:01] Funifura
    Here, you can have the money back.
[14:06] Megumin
    Please don't take advantage of her
    good nature and naiveté ever again.
[14:11] Dodonko
    Wow, you must really like Yunyun.
[14:14] Megumin
    You seem to have misunderstood me.
[14:17] Megumin
    It's not like Yunyun and I are friends.
[14:19] Funifura
    Yeah, yeah, whatever.
[14:21] Dodonko
    If you're that desperate not to be seen as
    friends, then what exactly is the deal?
[14:26] Megumin
    I'm not sure how to describe it.
    I suppose rivalry?
[14:30] Funifura
    Well, anyone else would think you
    two are pretty into each other.
[14:34] Dodonko
    Megumin, your eyes are glowing again.
[14:38] Dodonko
    Crimson Demons having a tell that shows
    our true feelings can be such a drag, huh?
[14:43] Funifura
    Look, we'll leave it at that for today,
    but don't get too big-headed, you hear?
[14:51] Dodonko
    What?!
[14:52] Funifura
    Come on, that's a classic
    conversation-ender! Get a clue!
SIGN    KONOSUBA - An Explosion on This Wonderful World!
[14:55] Funifura
    Duxion!
[15:06] Yunyun
    You left Inky all alone. Where did you go?
[15:12] Yunyun
    Isn't this...
[15:15] Yunyun
    Wait, that potion...
    Did you give it to them so—
[15:19] Megumin
    In what world would a pragmatist like
    myself engage in such philanthropy?
[15:25] Yunyun
    That's a very convincing argument.
[15:36] Yunyun
    Megumin, I was waiting for you!
    Don't leave without me.
[15:41] Yunyun
    I'll treat you to something,
    to show my thanks.
[15:50] Yunyun
    I-I know I said it was my treat...
[15:52] Yunyun
    I realize that, but...
[15:54] Torosuke
    Slide...
[15:56] Torosuke
    I am called Torosuke!
[15:58] Torosuke
    Foremost pancake chef among Crimson Demons,
[16:01] Torosuke
    and he who would open a
    franchise with 500 locations!
[16:04] Torosuke
    Now that is quite an appetite!
[16:06] Torosuke
    It pleases me to see you enjoy it so much!
    A classy merçi to you, young lady!
[16:09] Megumin
    It's more that... I believe in getting
    your fill when the opportunity presents.
[16:17] Megumin
    Can we take a little break?
[16:23] Megumin
    One more skill-up potion,
    and I'll be ready to graduate.
[16:27] Yunyun
    Huh? Megumin, I thought yesterday's potion left
    you with three points to go, the same as me...
[16:33] Yunyun
    Wait, the duxion from this morning!
[16:35] Megumin
    With which I gained a level,
    and earned two skill points!
[16:40] Yunyun
    A-Aw, no...
[16:42] Yunyun
    I wanted us to graduate together.
[16:45] Yunyun
    That's why I was trying to
    match your skill points...
[16:49] Megumin
    You were adjusting your points so
    that we could graduate together?
[16:53] Megumin
    Then you intentionally didn't
    score in the top three on the test?!
[16:57] Megumin
    How could you be so stupid?!
[17:00] Megumin
    If you wanted to graduate together,
[17:02] Megumin
    you could have just learned magic
    to use up the extra skill points!
[17:05] Megumin
    But you were so dead-set on
    learning advanced magic first,
[17:08] Megumin
    yet unable to just admit you
    wanted to graduate together!
[17:11] Megumin
    Just how awkward are you to
    even try something like this?!
[17:14] Yunyun
    I-I mean, you're always so smug
    about being better than me,
[17:18] Yunyun
    so if I were to pass you suddenly...
[17:20] Megumin
    Did you just suggest you've surpassed me?!
[17:22] Megumin
    You've done no such thing! At all!
[17:24] Megumin
    Let me make something quite clear:
[17:26] Megumin
    I have long since earned enough
    points to learn advanced magic!
[17:30] Megumin
    But I have no intention of doing that!
[17:32] Megumin
    I will be learning a far more
    powerful, surefire form of magic!
[17:39] Yunyun
    Powerful, surefire magic?
    Are you talking about explosion magic?
[17:44] Megumin
    That's right.
[17:45] Yunyun
    You were serious about that?
[17:46] Megumin
    And what if I was?
[17:48] Yunyun
    You're calling me stupid?
[17:50] Yunyun
    Even if you learn it, most people don't have
    enough magical power to actually cast it!
[17:54] Yunyun
    And even when they can, the most they can
    manage is once a day! That's why it's joke magic!
[17:58] Yunyun
    I know they say genius and madness are closely
    related, but are you really that crazy?!
[18:01] Megumin
    Any more insults, Yunyun, and don't
    expect the mercy I normally afford you.
[18:06] Megumin
    Believe me, I'm fully aware of the risks.
[18:08] Megumin
    I know more about explosion
    magic than anyone.
[18:12] Megumin
    And yet, I persist.
[18:14] Yunyun
    But why?
[18:16] Megumin
    Because I love it, of course.
[18:18] Yunyun
    I really do think you're crazy,
    and not a genius, Megumin.
[18:21] Megumin
    I warned you!
[18:30] Yunyun
    I won! I beat Megumin for the first time!
[18:33] Megumin
    Well, I wasn't being serious, after all.
[18:37] Megumin
    And with the moon not being
    out, my power is weakened.
[18:39] Yunyun
    You're not a literal demon!
    Just admit that you lost for once!
[18:45] Megumin
    Fine, I lose. Now, let me up.
[18:52] Megumin
    Still, given how stuffed I was,
[18:55] Megumin
    It's only natural I could only
    use half of my full strength.
[18:58] Yunyun
    No fair making excuses after I let you up!
[19:03] Yunyun
    Come on... Are you really that obsessed with
    explosion magic just because you like it?
[19:10] Yunyun
    Isn't there some other reason?
[19:14] Megumin
    If you must know, when I was younger,
    I was attacked by a magic beast.
[19:20] (Flashback) Wolbach
    Rest, cloaked by the smoke of supremacy.
[19:24] (Flashback) Wolbach
    Explosion!
[19:26] Megumin
    A mage who was passing by slew the beast...
[19:31] Megumin
    with explosion magic. And the destruction
    it caused... The overwhelming violence...
[19:36] Megumin
    The unassailable power...
    It was absolutely breathtaking.
[19:41] Megumin
    Befitting of being known
    as the ultimate magic.
[19:44] Megumin
    Ever since that moment, I've had
    no interest in other magic.
[19:49] Megumin
    Once I learn it, I intend to seek
    that mage out and ask her...
[19:54] Megumin
    "What do you think of the
    explosion magic you taught me?"
[20:02] Megumin
    That being said, I'm sure you're glad to
    have won once before I leave on my journey.
[20:07] Yunyun
    You're leaving once you graduate?
[20:09] Megumin
    Yes.
[20:10] Yunyun
    Is there anyone you're going to travel with?
[20:14] Yunyun
    Your magic power should be
    enough to use explosion magic,
[20:17] Yunyun
    but you'd be helpless after using it.
    You need someone to look after you.
[20:21] Megumin
    One thing we have in common is that
    I obviously have no such help.
[20:24] Yunyun
    Why do you sound so proud of that?
[20:26] Yunyun
    And it's not like you're
    leaving right away, right?!
[20:29] Megumin
    Well, I can't leave my
    sister unaccounted for,
[20:32] Megumin
    so I'll be working around
    the village for a while.
[20:34] Megumin
    What about you, Yunyun?
[20:37] Yunyun
    I'm going to be chief one day, so...
[20:41] Yunyun
    I want to try and learn a lot of
    different things before then.
[20:45] Yunyun
    I still need your help from time
    to time now, but one day...
[20:56] Yunyun
    I want to be strong enough to help
    the helpless, like that duxion.
[21:00] Yunyun
    Wait, why's there a duxion out here?
[21:08] Megumin
    "Megumin found tonight's dinner!"
[21:13] Yunyun
    Megumin, you jerk!
[21:27] Yunyun

    It all started when I went to
    where I usually go to play...
[00:04] Komekko
    I found something.
[00:15] (Flashback) Komekko
    That's one big goblin!
[00:19] (Flashback) Host
    Listen up, kid. Don't mix me
    up with some damned goblins.
[00:23] (Flashback) Komekko
    My name's not "kid"! It's Komekko.
[00:26] (Flashback) Komekko
    Whatcha doing, Mr. Not-Goblin?
[00:28] (Flashback) Host
    Mr. Not-Goblin?
[00:31] (Flashback) Host
    All right, runt, I'm the Dark God Wolbach's
    right-hand man, the high-level demon, Host!

    Remember the name.
[00:40] (Flashback) Komekko
    So cool!
[00:41] (Flashback) Host
    Y-Yeah? You think so?
[00:44] (Flashback) Host
    I like the cut of your jib, kid.
[00:47] (Flashback) Komekko
    Thank you very much!
[00:51] (Flashback) Host
    Watch it there. I need that to undo
    the seal on Lady Wolbach's... eh?
[00:58] (Flashback) Host
    Whoa, are you kidding me?
[01:01] (Flashback) Komekko
    Here!
[01:06] (Flashback) Host
    Hell yeah!
[01:14] (Flashback) Host
    Hey, Komekko. Good to see you again.
[01:17] (Flashback) Host
    Did you bring what I asked for?
[01:19] (Flashback) Komekko
    Yep! Here's the offering.
[01:20] (Flashback) Host
    Nice! Well done. I knew you had it in you.
[01:27] (Flashback) Host
    What the hell is this?
[01:28] (Flashback) Komekko
    Sacrificial chicken, egg, and rice!
[01:31] (Flashback) Komekko
    I got it from that stalker guy.
[01:35] (Flashback) Bukkorori
    Wait!
[01:38] (Flashback) Host
    Stupid! There's no way you
    can break a seal with a lunch.
[01:43] (Flashback) Host
    It's gotta follow the inscription:
    you need a hen and its chick!

    Maybe I'm better off grabbing it myself...

    clever and tough as she is,
    became a monster's meal that easily!

    Sh-She's done for. We should give up.

    We'll need to make a grave for her so that

    Don't worry. She'll never truly be gone.

    Yes, she'll live on inside my heart forever.

    Take that cat and incur the
    wrath of my little sister,

    who's waiting for it to get
    some meat on its bones.
[04:05] Megumin
    Now, you bear witness to
    my projectile combat!
[04:18] Megumin
    I didn't anticipate that they would
    have a shield of wind around them...
[04:21] Yunyun
    They don't! That was pretty clearly
    just you having lousy throw control!
[04:31] Yunyun
    Inky!
[04:37] Megumin
    She must have been a
    servant from the heavens.
[04:40] Megumin
    She's simply returned from whence she came.
[04:43] Megumin
    That's why we shouldn't cry,
    but instead, bid her a warm farewell.
[04:46] Yunyun
    Please don't make up weird
    justifications for abandoning Inky!
[04:50] Yunyun
    What are we gonna do now?
[04:52] Megumin
    We'll address the missing Ink later.
[04:55] Megumin
    Komekko is the priority here.
[04:57] Megumin
    Despite how she might seem,
    my little sister is made of hardy stuff,
[05:00] Megumin
    and she has a good head on her shoulders.
[05:03] Megumin
    I'm sure she's out there somewhere.
[05:05] Yunyun
    Y-You're right...
[05:06] Yunyun
    Can you think of anywhere she might go?
[05:10] Megumin
    Places she'd go...
[05:14] (Flashback) Komekko
    I found a toy, too,
    so I've been playing with it!
[05:17] (Flashback) Komekko
    You wanna try?

    A toy?

    I figured it out!

    I hate that I have, but I did!

    Come on, Megumin, she can't possibly have...

    Gimme my food back!

    How in the world did this happen?

    What do you think Komekko is doing?
[05:46] Megumin
    I think she's trying to take Ink back.
[05:49] Megumin
    I believe that's a threatening posture.
[05:56] Yunyun
    I don't know where to start here!

    She's picking a fight
    with a pack of monsters!

    And she's not even a little afraid!
    If anything, they seem scared of her!
[06:06] Megumin
    It seems my little sister may,
    in fact, be a big deal.
[06:10] Yunyun
    Come on, Megumin!
[06:11] Megumin
    There's no time.
[06:13] Megumin
    I had hoped to avoid
    resorting to this, but...
[06:18] Yunyun
    Your adventurer card?
[06:23] Megumin
    A-A genius of my caliber should be
    able to hunt monsters with ease,
[06:28] Megumin
    earning enough points again in no time.
[06:31] Megumin
    No matter how long it takes...
[06:33] Megumin
    Even if it takes decades...
[06:36] Megumin
    I can still learn explosion magic!
[06:40] Megumin
    It's fine... I can just start over...
[06:44] Yunyun
    You're shaking, you know.
[06:49] Yunyun
    Having a hard time letting go, right?
[06:59] Yunyun
    Lightning!
[07:04] Megumin
    Komekko!
[07:05] Megumin
    Yunyun?
[07:06] Yunyun
    I'll save Inky, too!
[07:08] Yunyun
    Hurry and find the adults!
[07:18] Komekko
    Yunyun was pretty great back there, huh?
[07:20] Komekko
    That lightning was like "whammo"!
[07:22] Megumin
    Indeed she was.
[07:23] Megumin
    Very impressive.
[07:24] Megumin
    Although it bothers me how I've
    been surpassed by Yunyun.
[07:29] Megumin
    I'm so used to the sight of her cowering...
[07:33] Megumin
    Lightning is intermediate magic.
[07:36] Megumin
    And now Yunyun has learned it.
[07:38] Megumin
    She'll graduate school now.
[07:40] Megumin
    Which means she no longer has a source
    of valuable skill-up potions.
[07:45] Megumin
    For her to learn advanced magic, from now on,
[07:49] Megumin
    she'll have to engage in combat
    against monsters to level up.
[07:54] Megumin
    My rival is going to be treated like
[07:56] Megumin
    an intermediate-skilled underachiever
    in the foreseeable future,
[07:59] Megumin
    in spite of her diligence as the chief's
    daughter, and all of her academic excellence.
[08:07] Komekko
    Sis? Are you crying?
[08:10] Megumin
    I am not! I'm just so angry that my
    magic power is flowing from my eyes!
[08:17] Komekko
    What's up, Sis? You tired of running?
[08:23] Megumin
    Komekko, do you love your big sister?
[08:26] Komekko
    Yeah!
[08:29] Megumin
    Even if I can't learn the ultimate magic?
[08:32] Megumin
    Even if I can't be the
    strongest big sister ever?
[08:34] Komekko
    I can become the strongest
    instead, so it's okay!
[08:42] Megumin
    Listen closely! You need to stay
    at my side the whole time!
[08:46] Komekko
    Got it!
[08:47] Megumin
    Do not go after the monsters
    who've caught Ink!
[08:50] Megumin
    I'll make sure to get her back!
[08:53] Megumin
    Understood?
[08:54] Komekko
    Got it!
[08:56] Komekko
    I'll try my best.
[08:57] Megumin
    You can't just try!
[08:58] Megumin
    You have to promise not to go after them!
[09:01] Komekko
    Got it!
[09:10] Yunyun
    Blade of Wind!
[09:16] Yunyun
    Inky!
[09:20] Megumin
    Well, this is no good.
[09:23] Megumin
    It looks like Yunyun can
    handle them all by herself.
[09:26] Komekko
    Is that a bad thing?
[09:28] Megumin
    It is! It'd make a total waste of the
    resolve I gathered to turn around...
[09:38] Megumin
    Okay! Now I can pay her back!
[09:42] Komekko
    I am called Komekko!
[09:44] Komekko
    Watcher of the house, and the Crimson
    Demon's foremost lovable li'l sis!
[09:49] Yunyun
    Komekko?!
[09:51] Megumin
    Komekko!
[09:52] Megumin
    Wh-What is wrong with you?!
[09:54] Megumin
    Did you seriously just try to steal your
    sister's brightest spotlight ever?!
[09:58] Komekko
    I'm not sorry!
[09:59] Megumin
    K-Komekko...
[10:00] Yunyun
    What are you two even doing
    here? I thought you ran!
[10:06] Megumin
    It should be obvious that I would never
    flee in debt to my self-proclaimed rival.
[10:11] Yunyun
    Could you please put less emphasis
    on the "self-proclaimed" part?!
[10:14] Yunyun
    Besides, I'm already a real mage
    who's learned real magic!
[10:19] Yunyun
    Lightning!
[10:22] Yunyun
    I'm not a pending-in-parentheses
    mage like you!
[10:25] Megumin
    Pending-in-parentheses?!
[10:26] Yunyun
    Blade of Wind!
[10:28] Megumin
    A bold statement from someone
    using intermediate magic!
[10:31] Yunyun
    Don't say that! It makes me sound
    like a failure of a Crimson Demon!
[10:36] Yunyun
    Fireball!
[10:44] Yunyun
    Now you won't need to learn magic, Megumin.
[10:50] Megumin
    This girl is unbelievable.
[11:02] Megumin
    Didn't you lecture me about
    not learning explosion magic?
[11:07] Megumin
    What made you change your mind?
[11:10] Yunyun
    I-I haven't, exactly.
[11:14] Yunyun
    I still don't think learning
    explosion magic is a good idea,
[11:17] Yunyun
    but giving up on your dream because
    of this mess would be a little sad...
[11:22] Komekko
    Hey, you're alive, ebon magical beast!
[11:22] Yunyun
    B-Besides, you're in my debt since I
    learned intermediate magic to save you!
[11:25] Komekko
    They hurt you?
[11:26] Yunyun
    It'd be a waste if you
    paid me back right away.
[11:26] Komekko
    This proves you survived the
    deathmatch for a reason!
[11:28] Yunyun
    You've never owed me one before.
[11:31] Megumin
    I'm pretty sure any debts
    I've incurred will be squared
[11:34] Megumin
    after I haul your immobile self back home.
[11:38] Yunyun
    Come on, Megumin! I learned
    intermediate magic to help you!
[11:41] Yunyun
    Calling it even after something
    like that is no fair!
[11:44] Megumin
    Never satisfied, are you?
[11:46] Megumin
    I could leave you here, at the mercy
    of whatever other monsters come by.
[11:50] Megumin
    By helping you avoid that fate, I do
    believe I've saved your life, Yunyun.
[11:55] Yunyun
    You're just twisting things to suit you!
[11:57] Yunyun
    I risked my life to stand up
    to those monsters, but you...
[12:01] Komekko
    Sis!
[12:08] Yunyun
    What? Why are there so many?!
[12:13] Megumin
    Could it be they're attracted
    to my immense magical power?
[12:20] Yunyun
    I get it.
[12:21] Yunyun
    The adults and our teachers
    are herding them this way.
[12:25] Yunyun
    Once they're all in one place,
    they'll blow them all away.
[12:28] Yunyun
    There's no one around here, so they can let
    loose with really powerful advanced magic.
[12:33] Megumin
    But we're here!
[12:35] Yunyun
    They don't know that.
[12:39] Megumin
    Yunyun, this is your big chance
    to say that famous line.
[12:44] Megumin
    "Leave me behind, and go on ahead."
[12:46] Megumin
    I won't stop you.
[12:48] Yunyun
    D-Don't leave me!
[12:50] Yunyun
    You were the one who said it!
[12:52] Yunyun
    We're not even until you get me safely home!
[12:56] Megumin
    Well, I regret saying it now.
[13:10] Megumin
    Is it you?
[13:13] Megumin
    I've only been attacked by
    monsters when Ink was with me.
[13:18] Megumin
    Komekko was playing with the puzzle—er,
[13:20] Megumin
    the fragments that kept
    the Dark God sealed away.
[13:23] Megumin
    Not only that, but the appearance
    of the Dark God's minions
[13:27] Megumin
    matches the timing of Ink's arrival.
[13:32] Yunyun
    What's wrong?
[13:33] Megumin
    My head is killing me!
[13:35] Megumin
    My brain is trying to keep me from thinking
    any further, as a self-defense mechanism!
[13:39] Yunyun
    This is really not the time
    for escaping reality!
[13:42] Komekko
    Sis, look at all that chicken!
[13:45] Komekko
    Let's catch a whole bunch and take it home!
[13:54] Yunyun
    Oh, no. This is really bad, isn't it?
[13:58] Megumin
    Yunyun can't move anymore.
[14:01] Megumin
    I'll have to learn magic so we can escape.
[14:16] Megumin
    Yunyun, please stay with Komekko.
[14:23] Komekko
    Sis, what's wrong?
    Your eyes are redder than usual.
[14:26] Yunyun
    Megumin!
[14:30] Megumin
    I've never used magic before,
[14:33] Megumin
    but my Crimson Demon instincts let me
    understand how it flows through my body.
[14:38] Megumin
    It's okay. I know what I have
    to do, and I won't regret it.
[14:43] Megumin
    I can do this!
[14:45] Megumin
    I've got plenty of skill points.
[14:47] Megumin
    For advanced magic...
    Maybe Crimson Laser or Light of Saber.
[14:52] Megumin
    Or maybe...
[15:02] Yunyun
    Wh-What's wrong?
[15:04] Yunyun
    Megumin, have you actually
    lost it this time?
[15:14] (Flashback) Megumin
    "Megumin found tonight's dinner!"
[15:21] Komekko
    My sister snapped!
[15:24] Megumin
    Yunyun! Komekko!
[15:25] Megumin
    Keep your heads low, and brace yourselves!
[15:29] Megumin
    Utilizing all skill points!
[15:39] Komekko
    She's crackling! And popping!
[15:43] Yunyun
    M-M-M-Megumin, what is this? What's going on?
[15:45] Yunyun
    That doesn't usually happen!
[15:48] Yunyun
    Wait, did you—
[15:54] Megumin
    The magic that I've been seeking for so long,
    despite knowing how foolhardy it was.
[16:00] Megumin
    This incantation, which I've practiced every
    day since I learned it all those years ago!
[16:15] Megumin
    The sparks of genesis.
[16:18] (Flashback) Wolbach
    The embers of oblivion.
[16:20] (Flashback) Wolbach
    Past, present, and future,
[16:22] (Flashback) Wolbach
    a forbidden force that
    subsumes all creation.
[16:25] (Flashback) Wolbach
    Flame, I am become destruction,
    without mercy.
[16:30] (Flashback) Wolbach
    By my blood, by my flesh,
[16:33] (Flashback) Wolbach
    the commandments set by the
    old gods are now shattered.
[16:36] Megumin
    I am called Megumin.
    Foremost prodigy among Crimson Demons,
[16:40] Megumin
    and master of explosion magic.
[16:43] Megumin
    The sorcery I have single-mindedly
    sought for so long is now mine!
[16:48] Megumin
    I will never forget this day!
[16:52] Megumin
    Heavens! Earth!
    You will never forget my name!
[16:56] Megumin
    I am called Megumin!
    Foremost prodigy among Crimson Demons,
[17:00] Megumin
    and master of explosion magic!
[17:04] Megumin
    Behold my power!
[17:05] Megumin
    Explosion!
[17:21] Megumin
    This is it!
[17:23] Megumin
    This is what I wanted to see!
[17:25] Megumin
    What an explosion! What power!
[17:30] Megumin
    What a feeling... of satisfaction...
[17:38] Komekko
    She blew up all the chickens!
[17:44] Megumin
    The adults who saw the
    explosion rushed over to us,
[17:48] Megumin
    and it was apparently quite the commotion.
[17:51] Megumin
    After all, what they saw was me
    and the chief's daughter collapsed,
[17:55] Megumin
    with Komekko and Ink standing
    watch, as if to protect us.
[18:11] Yunyun
    Megumin, what're you gonna do?!
[18:14] Yunyun
    It's supposed to be a goddess of vengeance
    and domination with a forgotten name!
[18:18] Yunyun
    They said the seal on her has been
    broken because of that explosion!
[18:21] Yunyun
    The one you fired off!
[18:24] Yunyun
    No one knows where she is!
    What're you gonna do?!
[18:26] Megumin
    The adults of the village, understandably,
[18:27] Yunyun
    Seriously, what?!
[18:27] Megumin
    didn't believe that Komekko was
    the one to break the seal.
[18:29] Yunyun
    Come on, say something, would you?!
[18:31] Megumin
    And they don't know that I've
    mastered explosion magic, either.
[18:33] Yunyun
    Megumin! Are you listening?!
[18:35] Yunyun
    Do you seriously not care?!
    Please, Megumin!
[18:44] Soketto
    Well, that was quite an ordeal.
[18:47] Soketto
    Megumin, you need to buy your 
    sister some actual toys.
[18:54] Soketto
    I think I'll tell your fortune today.
[19:00] Soketto
    The town of rookie adventurers, Axel.
[19:06] Soketto
    After enduring many hardships, you will
    encounter wonderful new friends there.
[19:12] Soketto
    They are very capable and...
[19:15] Soketto
    Capable? Huh?
[19:21] Soketto
    Woop.
[19:21] Megumin
    What was that?! What did you see?!
[19:24] Megumin
    And, since we had learned magic,
[19:29] Megumin
    we were told to come to school that weekend,
    as we would be graduating by ourselves.
[19:40] Yunyun
    Megumin... congratulations on graduating.
[19:43] Yunyun
    Congratulations to me, too.
[19:45] Megumin
    I have no idea what you're crying about.
[19:48] Megumin
    All they did was hand us a slip of
    paper and tell us not to come back.
[19:53] Yunyun
    Don't be mean! It's their way
    of saying we did a good job.
[19:57] Megumin
    Sure, sure.
[19:59] Yunyun
    So, Megumin, what are you going to do now?
[20:04] Megumin
    Isn't it obvious? Now that I've
    mastered explosion magic,
[20:08] Megumin
    I need to depart on a journey to make
    the world aware of my supremacy!
[20:13] Yunyun
    A journey?
[20:14] Megumin
    Granted, before that happens, I'll need
    to save enough money to actually leave.
[20:24] Megumin
    She really is an impertinent one, isn't she?
[20:27] Megumin
    Aren't kittens supposed to
    be more cute than bold?
[20:31] Yunyun
    Are you going to keep her
    at your house, Megumin?
[20:34] Megumin
    I don't know if that's wise.
[20:36] Megumin
    There's no telling when Komekko
    might make a meal of her.
[20:40] Megumin
    But abandoning her feels wrong...
[20:42] Yunyun
    I know! Maybe you should form a pact
    to really make her your familiar?
[20:48] Yunyun
    Even Komekko wouldn't eat her then.
[20:54] Megumin
    A familiar?
[20:57] Megumin
    I do like the idea of a mage
    with a dark god as a servant.
[21:02] Yunyun
    Dark... Wait, what?
[21:05] Megumin
    I was just saying making her
    my familiar was a good idea.
[21:10] Megumin
    Yes, and if she's to be my familiar,
    she'll need a proper name.
[21:16] Yunyun
    Is... Ink not her name officially?
[21:18] Megumin
    Of course not!
[21:20] Megumin
    I'd feel sorry for her if she was stuck
    with such a bizarre, unfashionable name.
[21:26] Yunyun
    It's bizarre and unfashionable?
[21:28] Yunyun
    But, look, I think she
    likes her current name...
[21:34] Megumin
    I've got it!
[21:37] Yunyun
    Y-You know she's a female, right, Megumin?
[21:40] Yunyun
    So maybe keep that in mind,
    and go with a cute—
[21:42] Megumin
    Your name is Chomusuke!
[21:45] Megumin
    Yes, Chomusuke it is!

    Hey, Sis, gimme food, please!
[03:16] Crimson Demon A
    It's the Mad Exploder!
[03:17] Crimson Demon B
    The Devil King's army is attacking!

    Damn it, he's not escaping tonight!

    It's too early for this commotion.
[03:41] Megumin
    Don't you consider the nuisance
    you're being to your neighbors?
[03:44] Yunyun
    How dare you of all people say that?!
[03:46] Yunyun
    What was that explosion last night?!
[03:48] Megumin
    I'm not sure why you're asking me.
    I heard it was the Devil King's army.
[03:52] Yunyun
    Stop playing dumb!
[03:53] Yunyun
    This was the same night after you
    got rejected from all those jobs!
[03:57] Megumin
    Wait, what is this?!
    Are you seriously accusing me?
[04:01] Megumin
    I'm shocked! And I thought
    we were friends, Yunyun.

    You can't just say that we're friends

    What if I pull here?
[04:37] Yunyun
    Oh, fine, then...
[04:39] Komekko
    Does this hurt? Maybe here?
[04:40] Yunyun
    I've got a few ideas in mind.
[04:43] Yunyun
    A-And I don't want you blowing stuff
    up just to let off some steam!
[04:47] Yunyun
    Come on, let's go.
[05:18] Yunyun
    I don't want to see potatoes
    again for a long time.
[05:26] Megumin
    I've had enough of this!
[05:28] Megumin
    I'm a prodigious magus!
[05:31] Megumin
    There are as many adventurers
    in this wide world
[05:35] Megumin
    thirsting for my talents as
    there are stars in the sky!
[05:39] Megumin
    How long must I be trapped in this village?
[05:44] Yunyun
    Megumin...
[05:45] Yunyun
    I'll try and find some
    better-paying jobs, so don't—
[05:50] Megumin
    Yunyun, I need to ask a favor.
[05:53] Yunyun
    What's that?
[05:54] Megumin
    Care to go on a little date?
[05:59] Yunyun
    Huh?
[06:01] Megumin
    Explosion!
[06:10] Megumin
    Another day, another nice explosion.
[06:15] Yunyun
    Wh-What are you doing?!
[06:16] Megumin
    What do you mean? It's part of my routine.
[06:19] Megumin
    I need to use my explosion
    magic once a day or I die.
[06:23] Yunyun
    Stupid, stupid, stupid!
[06:24] Yunyun
    Stupid Megumin!
[06:25] Megumin
    Now, Yunyun, please carry me home.
[06:27] Yunyun
    What?!
[06:28] Megumin
    Right now, I'm as helpless
    as a newborn infant.
[06:32] Megumin
    Now, carry me, please!
[06:34] Yunyun
    I'm going to throttle you if
    you don't stop being stupid!
[06:39] Bukkorori
    What're you two doing out here?
[06:42] Megumin
    B-Bukkorori?
[06:44] Yunyun
    What brings you here?
[06:46] Bukkorori
    You two heard all that noise, right?
[06:49] Bukkorori
    I thought it might be the Mad Exploder,
    so I rushed over here.
[06:53] Bukkorori
    Did you see him?
[06:54] Bukkorori
    And why is Megumin lying on the ground?
[06:57] Yyunyun
    W-Well... because...
[06:59] Megumin
    I saw the Mad Exploder!
[07:02] Megumin
    We were gaining levels by fighting monsters
    in the woods when we had an encounter!
[07:08] Megumin
    That kind of strength...
[07:09] Megumin
    I'm certain they must be one of
    the the Devil King's enforcers!
[07:12] Megumin
    Sadly, they escaped after
    our valiant struggle...
[07:15] Bukkorori
    So that's why you look so ridiculous.
[07:17] Bukkorori
    They must've been a truly fearsome foe.
[07:19] Megumin
    Yes. Most likely a demon.
[07:22] Megumin
    It was a... demon woman, with a
    really luscious body and big horns.
[07:26] Yunyun
    H-How can she just lie like that?
[07:35] Megumin
    Whew. I'm exhausted.
[07:38] Yunyun
    S-So... for t-tomorrow... um...
[07:42] Megumin
    Right. I'd appreciate your help in
    job searching tomorrow, as well.
[07:46] Yunyun
    O-Okay! See you then.
[07:51] Megumin
    Good grief...
[08:00] Megumin
    Chomusuke, I'm home.
[08:03] Megumin
    What's that look for?
[08:06] Megumin
    Here now... Is that good?
    Is that where you like it?
[08:11] Megumin
    You're a needy little thing,
    aren't you? How about—
[08:14] Megumin
    Okay, not there!
[08:19] Arnes
    I apologize for dropping by
    so late. Is anyone home?
[08:23] Megumin
    The door's open. Come right in.
[08:33] Megumin
    Who might you be?
[08:40] Arnes
    It's been so long, but I've found you at last,
[08:44] Arnes
    my glorious mistress.
[08:47] Arnes
    When I learned the seal had been broken,
    I made a great journey to reach this place.
[08:53] Arnes
    I am called Arnes.
[08:55] Arnes
    I will serve as an extension of your will,
    dedicating my life to your protection.
[09:02] Megumin
    I knew a day like this would come.
[09:07] Megumin
    The age of chaos draws near.
[09:10] Megumin
    You will stand at my side, my servant!
[09:15] Arnes
    I don't know who you are,
    but I appreciate what you've done.
[09:19] Arnes
    I will attend to my mistress from now on.
[09:22] Megumin
    Wait. I thought you were talking about me?
[09:25] Arnes
    No.
[09:26] Megumin
    Then you're here for...
[09:28] Arnes
    The one on top of you.
[09:34] Megumin
    Oh, her.
[09:35] Arnes
    My glorious mistress,
    whose domain is sloth and violence...
[09:39] Arnes
    Come, let us be on our way.
[09:43] Megumin
    I don't think she's interested.
[09:45] Megumin
    You should go now.
[09:46] Arnes
    W-Wait just a minute!
[09:48] Arnes
    Lady Wolbach, it's me! Arnes!
[09:51] Arnes
    Come on! Let's head home together.
[09:52] Arnes
    I've been through so much
    trying to find you!
[09:56] Megumin
    You're a stubborn one, aren't you?
[09:58] Megumin
    She doesn't want to go, so that's that.
[10:01] Arnes
    I-I would never leave your
    kindness unrewarded.
[10:03] Arnes
    I'm prepared to show my gratitude...
[10:05] Megumin
    What is this? Chomusuke is a
    beloved member of this family.
[10:08] Megumin
    You can't expect money to be enough...
[10:12] Arnes
    I only have 300,000 eris
    on me at the moment.
[10:15] Megumin
    Three hundred thousand eris?!
[10:17] Arnes
    You'll have to forgive the paltry sum...
[10:20] Megumin
    No apologies necessary!
    You can have her back right now.
[10:23] Arnes
    Thank you so much!
[10:24] Megumin
    Look here! It's your new guardian!
[10:27] Megumin
    Take care now!
[10:30] Megumin
    Let go!
[10:31] Arnes
    U-Um... My mistress seems rather reluctant,
[10:35] Arnes
    and I'm sure you need to say your goodbyes.
[10:37] Arnes
    I'll come by again tomorrow.
[10:41] Megumin
    Sorry about this. Until tomorrow, then.
[10:45] Arnes
    It's a promise.
[10:53] Megumin
    Right, so, Chomusuke is going
    to be leaving us today.
[10:57] Yunyun
    You mean to tell me you sold her?
[11:00] Yunyun
    The same cat you've been
    taking such good care of?!
[11:02] Yunyun
    Unbelievable!
[11:03] Megumin
    You don't understand! It's tearing
    me apart, too! I feel so sad!
[11:07] Megumin
    But I want that 300,000 eris!
[11:11] Arnes
    I'm here to retrieve my
    mistress, as promised.
[11:15] Megumin
    Miss Arnes!
[11:18] Yunyun
    Excuse me... What do you mean
    when you call her that?
[11:21] Arnes
    You have my thanks for seeing
    to her care all this time.
[11:25] Arnes
    But it would be wise to not
    ask any further questions.
[11:30] Arnes
    Now...
[11:31] Arnes
    Let's be on our way, Lady Wolbach.
[11:36] Arnes
    Ow, ow, ow!
    P-Please, cease this horseplay!
[11:39] Megumin
    Chomusuke, stop it!
[11:48] Megumin/Yunyun
    A demon?!
[11:50] Arnes
    So, you've seen.
[11:52] Megumin
    And a high-ranked demon?
[11:54] Yunyun
    What are you doing here?
[11:56] Arnes
    You need not worry.
    I'm only here for Lady Wolbach.
[12:01] Arnes
    Hand her over without any trouble,
    and you won't be harmed.
[12:04] Arnes
    I promise.
[12:05] Yunyun
    L-Like we can trust the words of a demon.
[12:08] Megumin
    That's right!
[12:09] Megumin
    You're sure to chow down on Chomusuke
    as soon as we hand her over!
[12:13] Arnes
    How impudent. I'll have you know that
    demons never break our promises—
[12:19] Arnes
    P-Promises?
[12:23] Arnes
    Promises...
[12:24] Megumin
    Wh-What's wrong?
[12:29] Arnes
    Promises!
[12:39] Megumin
    It's not very good tea.
[12:43] Arnes
    Thank you.
[12:45] Arnes
    And I apologize for losing
    my composure like that.
[12:48] Yunyun
    Um... are you okay?
[12:51] Arnes
    Yes, I'm feeling a bit better.
[12:53] Megumin
    You seem to have been through quite a lot.
[12:56] Arnes
    That's right.
[12:58] Arnes
    Lately, I seem to be trapped
    in this bizarre energy field...
[13:02] Yunyun
    E-Energy?
[13:04] Arnes
    And something about it seems to attract men
[13:06] Arnes
    that are like crystallized
    embodiments of trash!
[13:09] Arnes
    I've been lied to, betrayed, and
    had every promise to me broken!
[13:13] Arnes
    I've grown quite accustomed
    to it at this point...
[13:16] Arnes
    The bitter taste of deception.
[13:20] Megumin
    W-Well...
[13:22] Arnes
    It's fine, though.
[13:24] Arnes
    Now that I'm safely reunited
    with my mistress,
[13:26] Arnes
    all those tearful days can finally end!
[13:29] Arnes
    Now, Lady Wolbach, come with me!
[13:33] Yunyun
    W-Well, Chomusuke doesn't
    seem to want to leave,
[13:36] Yunyun
    so maybe you could just forget about—
[13:38] Arnes
    What?! Are you humans breaking
    yet another promise to me?!
[13:41] Yunyun
    Not exactly...
[13:43] Bukkorori
    Hey, Megumin. Pardon the intrusion.
[13:45] Megumin
    Bukkorori?
[13:46] Yunyun
    Wh-What are you doing here?
[13:49] Bukkorori
    I could feel this extremely attractive
    energy calling to me, so here I am.
[13:54] Arnes
    Energy...
[13:55] Arnes
    I can feel it! I sense the energy
    of an extremely trashy man!
[13:59] Bukkorori
    Hey, Megumin. Is this demon the
    Mad Exploder that's been causing trouble?
[14:04] Megumin
    That's right!
[14:05] Megumin
    She's the one who did it!
[14:07] Bukkorori
    I see! Here for revenge, huh,
    you treacherous fiend?!
[14:10] Arnes
    What are you talking about?!
[14:11] Bukkorori
    Assemble, my crimson bestial brethren!
[14:14] Bukkorori
    The time has come to bear your razor fangs!
[14:19] Megumin
    Hey! You do realize I have
    to live here, don't you?!
[14:24] Arnes
    I feel them!
[14:28] Headmaster
    This energy resonating with the abyssal
    depths of our souls drives us onward!
[14:33] Pucchin
    My precious students, we're on the way!
[14:38] Arnes
    I-I can sense it... The energy
    of a mass of worthless men...
[14:42] Arnes
    No more! I can't do this!
[14:48] Bukkorori
    You won't escape!
[14:58] Arnes
    A curse upon humanity!
[15:01] Arnes
    And death to all worthless men!
[15:11] Yunyun
    I feel kind of bad for that demon,
[15:15] Yunyun
    but at least she didn't take Chomusuke away.
[15:17] Megumin
    Yes. I was wondering, could you take
    care of Chomusuke at your place?
[15:23] Yunyun
    Huh? Where'd that come from?!
[15:25] Megumin
    I'm thinking of leaving
    for my journey tomorrow.
[15:28] Yunyun
    So soon?!
[15:29] Yunyun
    And what about the money?
[15:32] Megumin
    This should cover the cost of teleportation.
[15:34] Yunyun
    Th-That's so mean!
[15:35] Yunyun
    You're really going to spend it,
    after all that's happened?
[15:38] Megumin
    Crimson Demons are solitary creatures.
[15:40] Megumin
    I'm sure we'll meet again,
    if it's fated to happen.
[15:43] Yunyun
    Did you tell your parents?
[15:45] Megumin
    I've told my mother and father that I would
    leave when the time is right long ago.
[15:50] Yunyun
    But...
[15:52] Yunyun
    You could take your time.
[15:55] Yunyun
    This is so sudden.
[15:57] Megumin
    It's not sudden at all.
[16:01] Megumin
    I've been waiting for over half a year.
[16:06] Megumin
    That being the case,
    please take care of this furball.
[16:17] Yunyun
    Megumin... You're gonna
    come back to the village
[16:21] Yunyun
    once you find that robed woman, right?
[16:23] Megumin
    No, I won't.
[16:25] Megumin
    Once I'm out in the world and
    have reliable companions,
[16:29] Megumin
    I may as well slay the Devil King,
    and ascend his throne!
[16:32] Megumin
    When that happens,
    I'll make you one of my generals.
[16:35] Yunyun
    That is not going to happen!
[16:37] Yunyun
    Why do we have to be bad guys?
[16:40] Megumin
    You're going to become village chief once
    you've learned advanced magic, right?
[16:44] Yunyun
    That's right.
[16:46] Yunyun
    But I don't think that's
    gonna happen for a while.
[16:50] Yunyun
    So... y'know...
[17:01] Megumin
    Well, Yunyun, as my self-proclaimed
    rival, I wish you good luck.
[17:05] Megumin
    But if you try to become one of my generals
[17:08] Megumin
    after I've already conquered
    the world, it'll be too late.
[17:10] Yunyun
    I would never ask for that!
[17:12] Yunyun
    If you become the Devil King,
    I'll come and defeat you!
[17:17] Megumin
    Until we meet again.
[17:20] Yunyun
    Yeah... See you then.
[17:28] Yunyun
    H-Hey, Megumin!
[17:30] Yunyun
    W-Wait just a sec, okay?
[17:50] Megumin
    Komekko, if anything happens while I'm
    gone, be sure to tell the adults, all right?
[17:56] Komekko
    Okay, I will.
[17:58] Megumin
    He might not seem like much, but if you
    need help, you can talk to Bukkorori.
[18:03] Megumin
    He probably won't have
    anything better to do.
[18:05] Komekko
    Okay, I will.
[18:06] Megumin
    If you get lonely, you should visit Yunyun.
[18:09] Megumin
    I'm sure she'll be glad to see you.
[18:11] Megumin
    If anything, she'll probably
    be lonelier than you,
[18:15] Megumin
    so you should check on
    her from time to time.
[18:18] Komekko
    Okay, I will.
[18:19] Megumin
    My little sister is so clever, and so strong.
[18:31] Komekko
    Good luck, Sis. Become the
    strongest ever, okay?
[18:35] Megumin
    Understood.
[18:36] Megumin
    Consider it a promise, my dear sister.
[18:39] Megumin
    Once day, I'll be renowned as the
    most powerful mage in the world.
[18:42] Komekko
    Beat up the Devil King, okay?
[18:44] Megumin
    The... Devil King? That's a little...
[18:47] Komekko
    Beat him up, okay?
[18:48] Megumin
    I'll do my best.
[18:51] Komekko
    Sis?
[18:52] Megumin
    What is it?
[18:54] Komekko
    Come home soon, okay?
[19:05] Funifura
    She should be coming any time now...
[19:08] Funifura
    What kept you?
[19:09] Funifura
    Would it kill you to think about those
    of us who were waiting all morning?
[19:13] Megumin
    You all really have nothing better to do?
[19:15] Funifura
    Just for once, could you
    maybe say "thank you"?
[19:18] Arue
    Yunyun won't be coming.
[19:20] Arue
    She had some important
    discussion with her parents.
[19:23] Megumin
    I see.
[19:24] Funifura
    Huh? You're not sad?
[19:25] Megumin
    Not really.
[19:26] Funifura
    Not that you'd admit it, anyway.
[19:28] Funifura
    Whatever. Here you go.
[19:30] Megumin
    What is it?
[19:31] Dodonko
    A parting gift. A staff made by Funifura's dad.
[19:35] Megumin
    Thank you. I'll take good care of it.
[19:38] Megumin
    But what brought this on?
    Some sort of tsundere thing?
[19:41] Funifura
    Of course not!
[19:42] Funifura
    I just don't like leaving debts unpaid!
[19:45] Dodonko
    Funifura was really grateful for
    that medicine you made, Megumin.
[19:50] Megumin
    What? You mean to tell me your
    little brother was actually sick?
[19:53] Megumin
    I was sure you'd just made up
    a story to fleece Yunyun...
[19:57] Funifura
    I wouldn't go that far!
[19:59] Dodonko
    As creepily obsessed with her brother
    as she is, Funifura isn't a bad person!
[20:03] Funifura
    Hey!
[20:05] Arue
    Next is from me. A one-of-a-kind treasure.
[20:09] Funifura
    Whoa, your eyepatch?
[20:11] Nerimaki
    Isn't this the first time
    you've taken it off, Arue?
[20:14] Dodonko
    Th-This is a really big deal, actually!
[20:16] Arue
    It's a magic item that helps
    restrain my magic power.
[20:19] Arue
    I was born with more power
    than I could control,
[20:21] Arue
    so I've been wearing this since I was young.
[20:24] Nerimaki
    And you're just gonna give it to Megumin?
[20:28] Arue
    It's fine. My dream is to
    become a writer, after all.
[20:31] Arue
    I want to write stories
    that make people happy.
[20:35] Arue
    I'd love to hear about your
    adventures someday, Megumin.
[20:39] Funifura
    Th-That was a lot more
    profound than I expected...
[20:42] Dodonko
    Makes the staff seem kinda lame.
[20:47] Megumin
    I'll treasure all of it just the same.
[20:51] Arue
    That's good to know.
[20:52] Arue
    Considering that's just a fashion eye
    patch with nothing special about it.
[20:57] Megumin
    Come on!
[20:58] Arue
    Authors make up stories. It's what we do.
[21:01] Teleporter
    The teleportation to Arcanretia
    is about to activate.

    If you're going to be leaving,
    please get into position.
[21:24] (Flashback) Yunyun
    Have a good trip.
[21:29] Megumin
    I'm heading out!
[21:35] Teleporter
    May your journey be blessed!
[21:37] Teleporter
    Teleport!
[21:42] Megumin
    I am called Megumin.
[21:44] Megumin
    She who was born in the
    village of Crimson Demons...
[21:47] Megumin
    And she who will, one day,
    perfect explosion magic!

    It's been a week since
    I teleported to this town,
[02:13] Megumin
    and not only have I had trouble earning
    the fare to my next destination, Axel,
[02:13] Axis Cultist 2
    Just sign right here and your
    life will be rose-tinted bliss!
[02:16] Megumin
    but I'm barely able to cover
    the cost of food and lodging.
[02:18] Axis Cultist 2
    All it takes is a signature!
[02:20] (Flashback) Megumin
    Huh? It's a bad idea?
[02:23] (Flashback) Receptionist
    Yes.
[02:24] (Flashback) Receptionist
    All of the monsters that live near
    Arcanretia tend to be really strong.
[02:29] (Flashback) Receptionist
    There are manageable ones like
    goblins and kobolds, too, but...
[02:34] (Flashback) Receptionist
    They always seem to appear alongside the kind
[02:36] (Flashback) Receptionist
    that would make quick work of
    an amateur. Which means...
[02:39] (Flashback) Megumin
    A rookie adventurer like myself
    can't accept quests here, then.
[02:45] (Flashback) Receptionist
    Sorry about this.
[02:49] Megumin
    I know my explosion magic could
    obliterate any kind of foe!
[02:54] Megumin
    But if I can't take any work on,
    I literally can't get anywhere.
[02:58] Megumin
    No! It should be fine if I find a normal
    job that doesn't require magic!
[03:04] Megumin
    It should!
[03:11] Owner
    You're fired.
[03:12] Megumin
    Hang on a second, boss!
[03:14] Megumin
    There's a good explanation for this!
[03:15] Owner
    Is there? Let's hear it.
[03:18] Megumin
    Well... these customers were
    treating me like a child,
[03:22] Megumin
    so I asked them, "How could
    I possibly seem like a child?"
[03:26] Megumin
    And they had the nerve to talk about my
    height, and my chest, among other things.
[03:30] Owner
    And that's why you ended up pressing
    piping hot oden against their faces?
[03:33] (Flashback) Patron
    Hot!
[03:35] Megumin
    Yep!
[03:36] Owner
    Okay. So you're fired.
[03:42] Megumin
    At this rate...
[03:43] Axis Cultist 1
    Would you like to join us in loving
    Lady Aqua? Worshiping her?
[03:47] Axis Cultist 1
    Serving her? I'm sure it would provide
    a dramatic change in your life,
[03:51] Axis Cultist 1
    in more ways than one!
[03:53] Axis Cultist 2
    Joining the Axis Church has all kinds
    of benefits, like learning party tricks
[03:56] Axis Cultist 2
    and becoming really popular
    with undead monsters!
[04:05] Megumin
    I don't have time for this.
[04:07] Megumin
    I need to earn money somehow!
[04:10] Axis Cultist 1
    Join the Axis Church now and you're
    guaranteed to have good luck!
[04:14] Girl
    Would it... help me make friends?
[04:20] Megumin
    Yunyun?
[04:21] Axis Cultist 1
    You'll get friends, family, and lovers!
    Of all ages, from adults to kids to old folks!
[04:26] Megumin
    I think I may have developed a
    subconscious reliance on her.
[04:31] Megumin
    Which is bad!
[04:33] Cecily
    Aren't you two ashamed to do this
    sort of thing to a helpless girl?!
[04:38] Megumin
    What's this?
[04:39] Priest 1
    Stop trying to make this about us!
[04:41] Priest 1
    Give it a rest and—
[04:42] Megumin
    Hold it right there!
[04:45] Cecily
    Please, help me!
[04:46] Cecily
    These two were all, "Look at the pretty
    mug on you! I bet you want it, huh?"
[04:50] Cecily
    "Waltzing around town with
    that hot little body,
[04:53] Cecily
    I bet you knew exactly what would happen!"
    And then they tried to drag me off!
[04:57] Priests
    We did not!
[05:00] Megumin
    I am called Megumin!
[05:02] Megumin
    Foremost mage among the Crimson Demons,
    and master of explosion magic!
[05:07] Megumin
    And I can hardly overlook
    this brand of villainy!
[05:11] Priest 2
    Wait, you're a Crimson Demon?
[05:13] Priest 1
    Don't be hasty, now. Let's talk this over.
[05:16] Megumin
    Unfortunately for you, my crimson gaze
[05:20] Megumin
    can see through the excuses that
    would fool your average dullard!
[05:24] Priest 1
    Girl, I think your crimson
    gaze might be blind!
[05:29] Priest 2
    Great, now what are you gonna do about this?
[05:31] Priest 1
    That woman was an Axis cultist!
[05:33] Megumin
    Huh?
[05:34] Priest 2
    She defaced a portrait of Lady
    Eris that was hung in our church!
[05:38] Megumin
    Huh?!
[05:39] Priest 1
    And the other day, she ran
    off with all the bread
[05:41] Priest 1
    that we were supposed to
    distribute to the needy!
[05:43] Megumin
    What?!
[05:43] Megumin
    Well, that's, uh...
    I'm terribly sorry about that.
[05:46] Megumin
    I haven't been here long, and I don't...
[05:48] Cecily
    Officer, that's them!
[05:52] Cop
    I half expected this to be nonsense,
    considering the Axis Cult was involved,
[05:56] Cop
    but it looks like the Eris Sect is
    actually harassing a young girl.
[06:01] Priest 1
    Ma'am, I don't know what
    that Axis cultist told you,
[06:04] Priest 1
    but we haven't done anything wrong!
[06:06] Cecily
    Dear me! Look how defiant they are!
[06:08] Cecily
    And after they were trying
    to do who-knows-what
[06:11] Cecily
    not just to that darling girl,
    but myself, as well!
[06:13] Cecily
    You must've been so scared!
    But it's all right now!
[06:16] Priest 2
    What are you talking about?!
[06:17] Cop
    Why don't you explain yourselves
    down at the station?
[06:19] Cop
    Come along, now.
[06:20] Priests
    Wh-What?!
[06:21] Cecily
    Let's go! Now's our chance!
[06:23] Cop
    Hang on! I need to question you two, as well!
[06:31] Cecily
    Are you all right? They didn't hurt you?
[06:35] Cecily
    Looks like I arrived in the nick of time!
[06:37] Cecily
    Talk about a close call.
[06:39] Megumin
    What are you trying to pull?
[06:40] Megumin
    Why are you trying to make
    it sound like you saved me?
[06:44] Megumin
    It's not like I had any reason to run.
[06:47] Cecily
    Come, now. If you had stayed there,
[06:50] Cecily
    those wicked Eris cultists would've
    definitely done something horrible to you.
[06:54] Cecily
    I mean, look at you!
    You're so cute and... lolicious.
[06:58] Cecily
    Now, if you want to thank me for helping you,
[07:01] Cecily
    just sign this certificate of conversion...
[07:03] Megumin
    I am not joining the Axis Sect!
[07:05] Megumin
    Why should I thank you in the first—
[07:10] Cecily
    Someone must be hungry!
[07:12] Cecily
    Why don't you come with me?
[07:15] Cecily
    I'll take real good care of you!
[07:18] Megumin
    And yet, I have a tremendously
    bad feeling about it.
[07:22] Cecily
    My name is Cecily, and I'm a priest
    with the Religious Order of Axis!
[07:26] Cecily
    You can call me "Big Sis Cecily," okay?
[07:31] Megumin
    My name is Megumin...
[07:33] Megumin
    So call me that.
[07:35] Cecily
    What an unusual name!
[07:37] Cecily
    But no matter. Let's get you some tasty
    food, and we can have a nice chat.
[07:51] Church Guy 1
    It's a loli!
[07:53] Church Guy 2
    Our order has been blessed with a loli!
[07:55] Church guy 3
    Look how lolicious she is!
[07:57] Church guy 4
    Loliloli!
[07:58] Megumin
    The next person to say "loli"
    is going to catch these hands!
[08:05] Unmarked AD
    God, she is a loli loli.
[08:07] Cecily
    Miss Megumin, our adherents are
    forbidden from being near children.
[08:13] Cecily
    So, please, try to understand how they feel.
[08:16] Megumin
    What in the world did you people do?!
[08:22] Tristan
    Please, enjoy.
[08:26] Megumin
    This isn't one of those
[08:27] Megumin
    "By eating this, you accept membership
    in the Axis Sect" deals, is it?
[08:31] Cecily
    Come, now! We would never
    try anything so dastardly!
[08:35] Cecily
    Right?
[08:35] Tristan
    Th-That's right!
[08:37] Tristan
    I swear to Lady Aqua!
[08:39] Megumin
    Good grief...
[08:47] Zesta
    Ah, it seems an adorable
    guest has joined us.
[08:54] Cecily
    This our arch priest, Father Zesta.
[08:57] Zesta
    I hear you've had trouble finding
    work or a place to stay.
[09:02] Zesta
    If you'd like, you can have a
    room here until you find a job.
[09:07] Megumin
    Thank you so much!
[09:08] Megumin
    I hate to impose, but I was
    really running out of options.
[09:12] Megumin
    If there's anything I can do to
    thank you, please, just ask.
[09:16] Zesta
    Did you say... anything?
[09:18] Megumin
    Er, that's more a figure of speech...
[09:22] Zesta
    In that case...
[09:24] Zesta
    Could you call me "Big Brother"?
[09:27] Zesta
    Wait, no... "Daddy"!
[09:29] Zesta
    Maybe some underpants instead?
[09:31] Zesta
    Actually, just sit on me!
[09:33] Zesta
    Oh, dear, I can't decide!
[09:36] Zesta
    Oh great goddess Aqua! Please offer
    your guidance to this lost lamb!
[09:42] Megumin
    Excuse me, but what is this deviant's deal?
[09:46] Cecily
    That's Father Zesta. He runs our chapter,
    and is next in line to be pontiff of our order.
[09:51] Megumin
    Is your order... going to be okay?
[09:54] Cecily
    I know what you're thinking, but he can
    be pretty competent when he has to be.
[09:57] Cecily
    It'll probably be fine?
[10:00] Megumin
    You really don't sound that invested.
[10:05] Church guy 1
    Father Zesta, I hate to interrupt your fun,
[10:10] Church guy 1
    but I have today's report
    on our conversion rates.
[10:16] Zesta
    This doesn't look promising.
[10:18] Church guy 1
    Yes, most likely due to the
    machinations of that wicked Eris Cult.
[10:22] Church guy 2
    Maybe we should switch up
    our proselytization methods?
[10:25] Zesta
    How, for example?
[10:26] Church guy 2
    We could pretend to be
    members of the Eris Sect,
[10:29] Church guy 2
    and just before someone signs up,
[10:31] Church guy 2
    switch out the certificate of conversion
    with one for the Axis Church.
[10:35] Zesta
    No, that would be too obvious, and they'd
    be able to run at the last second.
[10:44] Megumin
    You're looking for an effective method
    to recruit new members, then?
[10:50] Megumin
    Crimson Demons are renowned for
    our wisdom. Perhaps I can help?
[11:00] Megumin
    Listen closely.
[11:01] Megumin
    First, I intentionally spill these apples.
[11:07] Megumin
    "Oh, my apples!" I'll scream in anguish.
[11:11] Megumin
    And then some kind person
    will help me collect them.
[11:14] Megumin
    That's when I say, "Thank you
    so much! You're a huge help!"
[11:18] Megumin
    And you pretend to coincidentally
    have come across the scene.
[11:23] Megumin
    Then I'll go, "Mr. Zesta!
    This person just helped me!"
[11:28] Megumin
    Which is your cue to go,
    "Please, let me thank you somehow,"
[11:33] Megumin
    at which point you invite
    us both to a nearby café.
[11:37] Megumin
    Which is where you will
    threaten... or rather,
[11:39] Megumin
    give a sermon to convince them to convert!
[11:42] Zesta
    M-M-M-M—
[11:45] Zesta
    Magnificent! Such brilliant thinking!
[11:47] Zesta
    Is this the wisdom of the Crimson Demons?!
[11:49] Zesta
    It sounds more effective than
    any plan I've ever heard of!
[11:54] Megumin
    Now then, let's get underway.
[11:56] Zesta
    Right!
[12:00] Megumin
    Here comes someone who looks helpful.
[12:08] Megumin
    Wha—
[12:10] Zesta
    Oh, my apples!
[12:16] Zesta
    Thank you so much! You're a huge help!
[12:20] Zesta
    Can I do anything to thank you?!
[12:23] Girl
    Th-That's okay!
[12:35] Zesta
    Well, nothing is perfect from the get-go.
[12:38] Zesta
    I think I've the gist now,
    so I bet it'll work next time.
[12:40] Megumin
    Could you just leave?
[12:42] Zesta
    Now, now, everyone makes mistakes sometimes.
[12:45] Megumin
    Do you even realize it was your fault?
[12:47] Megumin
    Let's change up the premise. This time,
    we'll pretend that you're attacking me.
[12:53] Zesta
    Right.
[12:59] Megumin
    Let's go for that hardy-looking fellow
    with the righteous air about him.
[13:04] Megumin
    Someone! Someone, help me!
[13:07] Megumin
    This old man was going to make me...
[13:12] Tough Guy
    Where is he?
[13:14] Megumin
    Huh?
[13:16] Megumin
    What are you doing?!
[13:18] Megumin
    We've already got his attention!
    You need to come after me!
[13:22] Megumin
    At this rate, I'm just going to look crazy!
[13:25] Tough Guy
    Miss, what's this all about?
[13:29] Megumin
    Well...
[13:31] Tough guy
    I happen to be a police officer,
    although I'm off-duty today.
[13:34] Megumin
    Th-There's actually... a good explanation...
[13:38] Tough guy
    Well, I'd like to hear it,
    considering the commotion you're making.
SIGN    KONOSUBA - An Explosion on This Wonderful World!
[13:45] Megumin
    Son of a...
[13:47] Megumin
    I am done.
[13:50] Zesta
    Now, don't be that way.
[13:52] Zesta
    I apologize for running
    and leaving you behind.
[13:54] Zesta
    It's just, he looked rather tough, you know?
[13:58] Megumin
    That's no excuse! I was chewed out
    by a constable because of you!
[14:03] Zesta
    I'm so sorry! You have my
    most heartfelt apology!
[14:07] Megumin
    Do you actually feel sorry at all?
[14:09] Zesta
    Now, now, let's renew our approach.
[14:12] Zesta
    Oh, look, meat skewers!
[14:15] Megumin
    I can't be bought with food, you realize.
[14:22] Megumin
    This is really good!
[14:23] Zesta
    I'm curious, Miss Megumin. What has you
    traveling on your own at such a young age?
[14:28] Megumin
    I'm actually searching for someone.
[14:31] Megumin
    Although my only clues are
    that she's a beautiful,
[14:35] Megumin
    voluptuous woman who uses explosion magic.
[14:38] Zesta
    That sounds familiar...
[14:41] Megumin
    What?! Could you tell me more?
[14:43] Zesta
    Something about a buxom beauty of
    some renown in the town of Axel,
[14:47] Zesta
    who can use explosion magic, and is
    running a magical item shop, I think?
[14:53] Zesta
    The fact that she's a buxom beauty made
    an impression, so it stuck in my memory.
[14:59] Megumin
    Well, since you've given me a good
    lead in addition to good food,
[15:03] Megumin
    let me help a bit more with
    your recruiting efforts.
[15:07] Zesta
    Would you be so kind, Miss Megumin?
[15:11] Townsfolk
    There they are!
[15:12] Townsfolk
    Get them!
[15:13] Megumin
    Uh, Zest?! Why did you steal the
    toilet paper from that bathroom?!
[15:17] Zesta
    I left certificates of
    conversion in their place!
[15:20] Zesta
    Wouldn't you despair at having no paper,
    and search for grace in Lady Aqua's arms?!
[15:24] Megumin
    You didn't think about
    the trouble you'd cause,
[15:27] Megumin
    or the fact that they might wipe
    their butts with your certificates?!
[15:34] Megumin
    Let's just head back.
[15:36] Zesta
    I don't mind, but... are you sure
    you want to, Miss Megumin?
[15:41] Megumin
    Excuse me?
[15:42] Zesta
    Considering how highly
    you billed yourself...
[15:46] (Flashback) Megumin
    Crimson Demons are renowned for
    our wisdom. Perhaps I can help?
[15:52] Zesta
    I certainly wouldn't want
    to return empty-handed.
[15:56] Megumin
    Fine. Let's try one more time.
[16:00] Megumin
    But I'm going to do it myself this time.
[16:03] Megumin
    Can you restrain yourself?
[16:05] Zesta
    I see...
[16:07] Zesta
    I suppose I'll select the mark, then.
[16:10] Megumin
    You're even calling them "marks" now.

[16:12] Zesta
    Well, well...
[16:17] Zesta
    There, Miss Megumin. Here comes
    a pleasant-seeming young girl.
[16:22] Megumin
    Good grief...
[16:27] Megumin
    I can't believe I tripped over nothing!
[16:31] Megumin
    I skinned my knee!
    It hurts so much, I can't move!

    At this rate, the wound will—

    What are you doing?
[16:39] Yunyun
    Seriously, Megumin.

    What are you doing?
[16:56] Yunyun
    What are you doing...
[16:59] Yunyun
    in the middle of the street?!

    Please stop!
[17:03] Megumin
    Don't roll me like that! Yunyun!

[17:11] Yunyun
    So, you fall over in the middle of the
    street, beg for help, and then what?
[17:18] Megumin
    I've got questions myself.
    What are you doing here?
[17:20] Yunyun
    Huh?! Well, that's... er....
[17:23] Megumin
    And why is Chomusuke with you?
[17:26] Yunyun
    It's just... Chomusuke
    has really missed you!
[17:30] Yunyun
    She's been totally
    heartbroken with you gone.
[17:36] Yunyun
    Look! See? She's so excited
    to see you again!
[17:43] Zesta
    Excuse me, but who are you, and what is
    your relationship with Miss Megumin?
[17:48] Yunyun
    I-I'm Megumin's rival.
[17:52] Yunyun
    And I've actually been curious...
    How do you know Megumin?
[17:59] Zesta
    You want to know about our relationship?!
[18:02] Megumin
    This is Zesta, with the Axis Sect.
[18:04] Yunyun
    The Axis Sect?!
[18:06] Zesta
    Miss Megumin has been helping
    me recruit new members.
[18:11] Yunyun
    That was your idea... of proselytizing?
[18:20] Yunyun
    Hey, Megumin, I'm not sure you should stay
    here and mess with the Axis Sect much longer.
[18:26] Megumin
    Believe me, I am fully aware of that fact.
[18:30] Yunyun
    In that case...
[18:31] Zesta
    By all means, Miss Yunyun,
    make yourself at home.
[18:35] Yunyun
    O-Okay... sure.
[18:43] Zesta
    Well, now.
[18:45] Zesta
    What manner of kink is this?
[18:49] Lady Knight
    Father Zesta, chief priest
    of the Holy Order of Axis.
[18:52] Lady Knight
    I'm afraid you're wanted for arrest.
[18:57] Megumin
    What, exactly, is this? Arresting
    someone without stating any charges?
[19:01] Megumin
    That doesn't strike me as very legal.
[19:03] Yunyun
    Megumin...
[19:05] Megumin
    What has he supposedly done?
[19:07] Cecily
    Father Zesta! What did you do this time?!
[19:11] Cecily
    Didn't we tell you to show some restraint
    when playing with yourself?!
[19:15] Tristan
    And we warned you that sexually harassing the
    priestesses of the Eris Sect was going too far!
[19:19] Tristan
    Or were you going on another public
    tirade about how it's unfair that
[19:23] Tristan
    women can buy men's underpants
    without suspicion,
[19:26] Tristan
    but men can't do the same
    without getting dirty looks?
[19:33] Megumin
    Take him away.
[19:34] Lady Knight
    We appreciate your cooperation.
[19:35] Cecily
    Aw! Megumin, you traitor!
[19:38] Megumin
    Don't make it sound like
    I've done anything wrong.
[19:41] Lady Knight
    You've been charged with
    conspiracy to commit treason.
[19:45] Lady Knight
    Take a look at this.
[19:49] Megumin
    "A threat is descending upon
    the city of Arcanretia."
[19:53] Megumin
    "Should something seem
    off with the hot springs,
[19:55] Megumin
    be cautious of those in charge
    of their management."
[19:57] Megumin
    "For they are a servant of the Devil King."
[20:01] Lady Knight
    This info came from the
    Crimson Demon Village.
[20:04] Lady Knight
    I'm sure you're familiar with
    their famous fortune teller?
[20:11] Megumin
    Don't tell me...
[20:13] Lady Knight
    There have been complaints
    over the last few days
[20:15] Lady Knight
    from various inns about the water
    quality of the hot springs.
[20:18] Lady Knight
    Just like the fortune said,
    something seems to be happening to the springs.
[20:22] Lady Knight
    And the Axis Sect is responsible
    for managing the water control...
[20:26] Lady Knight
    Which would imply a connection between
    you all and the Devil King—
[20:30] Zesta
    How dare you, you little wench?!
[20:32] Zesta
    Don't you know our creed includes,
    "Slay the demons, defeat the Devil King"?!
[20:36] Zesta
    Our order would never do such a thing!
[20:37] Lady Knight
    Back off!
[20:38] Lady Knight
    Or do you want obstruction of justice
    and lewd conduct added to your charges?!
[20:42] Zesta
    I'll shut your foolish
    mouth with a big smooch!
[20:44] Zesta
    Smooch!
[20:45] Lady Knight
    Take him away already!
[20:47] Zesta
    This is a conspiracy by the Eris Cult!
    Don't be deceived!
[20:50] Zesta
    They fear my animal magnetism!
[20:52] Zesta
    They've duped this dimwitted
    girl into doing their bidding!
[20:58] Cecily
    Oh, no! What will become of our
    order with Father Zesta gone?
[21:04] Megumin
    What kind of problems will it cause?
[21:09] Cecily
    Huh, looks like we'll be okay after all.
[21:12] Cecily
    I apologize for the fuss.
[21:14] Cecily
    I do wonder what brought these
    accusations on, though.
[21:19] Megumin
    Yunyun...
[21:22] Megumin
    You've seemed awfully nervous for a while now.
[21:25] Yunyun
    Well...
[21:27] Yunyun
    When I left the Crimson Demon village,
    Soketto asked me to do something.
[21:32] Yunyun
    She saw that this city would be in danger,
[21:35] Yunyun
    and wanted me to deliver a letter of
    prophecy if I was going to Arcanretia.
[21:40] Yunyun
    And so, well...
[21:45] Megumin
    In other words, that letter you
    brought is what caused all this.

[00:03] Yunyun
    I was just delivering a letter!
    I didn't think it would turn out like this!
[00:07] Yunyun
    What should we do, Megumin?!
[00:12] Cecily
    You don't need to worry.
[00:14] Cecily
    I'm sure Father Zesta is enjoying being
    interrogated by that lady knight as we speak.
[00:19] Cecily
    It'd be rude to ruin his fun.
[00:23] Cecily
    More importantly, you two wanna
    help me with collecting votes?
[00:28] Cecily
    I'm willing to pay for the labor.
[00:29] Megumin
    What votes?
[00:32] Priest A
    Oh, what a sin it is!
[00:34] Priest A
    Father Zesta was colluding with
    the Devil King's army all along!
[00:37] Priest A
    I beg you all, for our next pontiff,
    we must ensure someone more faithful,
[00:41] Priest A
    such as myself!
[00:43] Priest A
    Commit now and you'll get a free vial of
    holy water that normally costs 10,000 eris!
[00:48] Tristan
    Should I be named head of the Axis order,
    I make the following promises:
[00:52] Tristan
    One, the legalization of polyandry.
[00:56] Tristan
    Two, the marriage age
    will be further lowered!
[01:00] Tristan
    Three, even siblings will be eligible,
    as long as they love each other!
[01:04] Priest A
    Vote for the greater good! Vote for me!
[01:06] Tristan
    No, no, vote for me!
[01:08] Priest A
    No, you should vote for me!
[01:09] Tristan
    No, me!

    No, they should vote for—

[02:50] Megumin
    Where do these Axis faithful
    get all their energy from?
[02:55] Yunyun
    I think I wanna go back to
    the Crimson Demon village.
[03:00] Cecily
    Here I am!
[03:03] Cecily
    Here's your ice-cold jelly slime!
[03:06] Megumin
    Wh-What kind of creepy beverage is this?
[03:09] Cecily
    It's an Arcanretia delicacy!
[03:11] Cecily
    The smooth mouthfeel will
    get you hooked. Just try it!
[03:16] Cecily
    These are on me.
[03:18] Cecily
    And if you convert to the Axis sect...
[03:21] Cecily
    Well, you probably know the rest by now.
[03:24] Cecily
    Now that we've done a bit of
    sabotage on the nominees,
[03:28] Cecily
    let's go and talk to the inns
    that filed the complaints.
[03:33] Yunyun
    I'm so relieved, miss! You really
    do want to investigate after all!
[03:36] Cecily
    Please, call me "Big Sister."
[03:38] Megumin
    Well, if Zesta really is innocent,
[03:41] Megumin
    it would mean being weighed down by a
    guilty conscience from here on out...
[03:44] Megumin
    For Yunyun.
[03:45] Yunyun
    No way! That's awful!
[03:47] Cecily
    Oh, Yunyun, you are so adorable!
[03:50] Cecily
    You must've felt responsible,
    but unsure what to do about it!
[03:54] Yunyun
    Miss?
[03:55] Cecily
    If thou art troubled, then instead
    focus on enjoying yourself.
[04:01] Cecily
    Let the path of least
    resistance show you the way.
[04:03] Cecily
    Flow along it, like water.
[04:05] Cecily
    Do not restrain yourself; let your
    instincts guide your actions.
[04:10] Cecily
    And... call me Big Sister.
[04:22] Cecily
    Jelly slime!
[04:24] Yunyun
    What the heck is going on?
[04:26] Megumin
    And this is supposed to be sabotage
    by the Devil King's forces?
[04:29] Yunyun
    But why would they pour slime
    mix into the hot springs?
[04:33] Megumin
    This has gotten too stupid
    already. Can I leave?
[04:36] Yunyun
    Hang on!
[04:37] Yunyun
    I get what you mean, but if this is really
    what's wrong with the hot springs...
[04:42] Megumin
    I suppose you have a point.
[04:44] Cecily
    This is where spring water from the mountains
    is collected and flows to the various inns!
[04:50] Cecily
    And because the Axis order runs it, we get
    to do whatever we want around town!
[04:56] Megumin
    Your order is really pretty awful, isn't it?
[04:59] Yunyun
    And there are reports that the strangeness
    began after Father Zesta visited this place...
[05:05] Cecily
    Yes, it seems so.
[05:08] Cecily
    I think he might be guilty after all.
[05:11] Megumin
    Be that as it may,
[05:12] Megumin
    ambiguity leaves a bad aftertaste,
    so let's make sure we have evidence.
[05:15] Yunyun
    You probably shouldn't assume he's guilty.
[05:22] Cop
    You ladies Axis sect?
[05:24] Cop
    You people are late.
    We've already recovered the evidence.
[05:27] Megumin
    Is it in that bag?
[05:30] Cop
    A ton of jelly slime mix.
[05:34] Cop
    Father Zesta was spotted
    carrying this bag around.
[05:38] Cop
    I don't think there's any
    way out of this for him.
[05:41] Megumin
    Even so...
[05:43] Megumin
    Why would he do something so ridiculous?
[05:46] Megumin
    If his aim was to ruin the hot springs,
    couldn't he have poisoned them instead?
[05:51] Yunyun
    Poison...
[05:53] Cop
    The thing is, when someone tells you the
    Axis cult pulled something like this,
[05:57] Cop
    it suddenly makes a lot of sense.
[06:01] Yunyun
    I mean... he's definitely strange, 
    but he didn't seem actually evil.
[06:07] Cecily
    It's probably clean if I drink it
    directly from the faucet, right?
[06:10] Cecily
    Right?! Anyone have a cup? And can
    any of you use the spell Freeze?
[06:16] Everyone else
    This is the problem with the Axis cult...
[06:23] Yunyun
    Do you think Father Zesta really is
    involved with the Devil King's army?
[06:27] Yunyun
    He sure doesn't seem that way.
[06:33] Megumin
    I suppose even she's
    feeling down about this.
[06:37] Cecily
    They said I couldn't drink any
    because it was evidence...
[06:40] Cecily
    even though there was so much!
[06:45] Megumin
    Well, what's done is done.
[06:48] Megumin
    I'm sure he'll be back better than
    ever after paying his debt to society.
[06:52] Yunyun
    I'm pretty sure the penalty for
    conspiracy to commit treason is death.
[06:58] Zesta
    Well, if apologies were good enough,
    wouldn't all of you be out of a job!?
[07:02] Zesta
    You accused me, the head of
    the Axis Religious Order...
[07:06] Zesta
    Me, of all people!
[07:09] Zesta
    Of colluding with demoniacal
    forces?! Are you mad?!
[07:13] Lady Knight
    I'm so sorry. So please,
    could you leave it at that...
[07:16] Zesta
    For goodness' sake.
[07:16] Cecily
    Father Zesta?
[07:18] Zesta
    Oh, if it isn't Cecily.
[07:22] Zesta
    You must've been waiting for my release!
[07:25] Trio
    You were released?!
[07:27] Zesta
    Are you really that shocked?
[07:29] Zesta
    It should be obvious I would never
    commit such a foolish crime.
[07:33] Zesta
    Go on, tell them!
[07:36] Lady Knight
    For mistakenly arresting the honorable
    Father Zesta of the Axis Order...
[07:43] Lady Knight
    I'd like to offer a sincere apology!
[07:46] Cops
    We apologize, Father Zesta!
[07:49] Zesta
    That reminds me!
[07:51] Zesta
    That smug-looking prosecutor in glasses, who
    showed up with that lie-detecting magic device...
[07:56] Zesta
    Please make sure to give her my thanks.
[08:00] Zesta
    She was the one who cleared
    these suspicions up.
[08:02] Zesta
    And the sight of her cool, confident face
    slowly welling up with tears was quite a treat!
[08:11] Zesta
    If I had my druthers, you'd be crawling at
    my feet, giving my toes a good licking...
[08:20] Zesta
    But I suppose, in my magnanimity,
    I'll let you off this time.
[08:24] Lady Knight
    Th-Th-Thank you for your
    generosity in this ma—
[08:31] Zesta
    If only your brain...
[08:34] Zesta
    was half as big as those breasts of yours!
[08:43] Megumin
    But this doesn't actually solve
    the problem at hand, does it?
[08:48] Megumin
    The truth remains that someone has been
    pouring that powder into the springs.
[08:53] Zesta
    Indeed it does.
[09:13] Megumin
    Well, you certainly inspire
    a lot of devotion.
[09:18] Arnes
    We meet again.
[09:20] Arnes
    You certainly managed to give
    me the slip last time.
[09:25] Zesta
    What is this?!
[09:26] Zesta
    Miss Megumin, who is this
    scandalously-clad vixen?!
[09:29] Megumin
    Appearing in the middle of a town like
    this... You seem awfully confident.
[09:34] Megumin
    Are you that desperate to
    take Chomusuke from me?
[09:36] Zesta
    Miss Megumin!
[09:38] Zesta
    What is your relationship with this woman
    who is flaunting her bosom so brazenly?!
[09:42] Arnes
    Those irritating townsfolk aren't
    here to save you this time.
[09:46] Arnes
    I'd normally just crush you both
    and be done with it,
[09:49] Arnes
    but since Lady Wolbach seems
    attached, I'll simply—
[09:51] Zesta
    Miss Megumin, please, I need to know!
[09:53] Zesta
    Why is she dressed like such a jezebel?!
[09:57] Zesta
    And the fact that she's wearing a robe,
    as if it hides anything, is indecent!
[10:01] Zesta
    It's indecent, I say!
[10:02] Zesta
    And yet, for how indecent it is, there is
    also a razor-sharp aesthetic edge to it.
[10:07] Zesta
    Yes, a bit like the transgressive thrill from
    the combination of a swimsuit and a raincoat—
[10:11] Arnes
    Would you knock it off?!
    Who the hell are you?! Buzz off!
[10:15] Megumin
    I wouldn't provoke her, Zesta.
[10:18] Megumin
    She's our enemy.
[10:20] Megumin
    She followed us all the way here
    in pursuit of this furball.
[10:23] Zesta
    Oh, so she's after Chomusuke...
[10:25] Zesta
    That's a rather whimsical motivation
    for such an edgy-looking individual.
[10:29] Yunyun
    Could you two leave it at that?
[10:31] Yunyun
    I think you're just angering her further.
[10:36] Arnes
    All right, worms, if you want
    to spare yourselves some pain—
[10:39] Zesta
    And what should I do if I want
    you to hurt me instead?!
[10:42] Yunyun
    F-Father Zesta!
[10:44] Arnes
    Then I'll do just that!
[10:46] Arnes
    Fireball!
[10:51] Zesta
    Oh... She's a demon girl.
[10:54] Zesta
    Reflect.
[11:04] Arnes
    Well, I thought you were
    just some old freak,
[11:07] Arnes
    but that was impressive.
[11:10] Yunyun
    Wh-Wh-Wh-What was that?!
[11:12] Megumin
    The old pervert who got arrested did that?!
[11:16] Zesta
    A demon girl... So, a demon?
[11:20] Zesta
    From orcs to ogres, I've always
    thought myself open-minded...
[11:24] Zesta
    But demon girls?
[11:25] Zesta
    The commandments of the Axis
    order forbid appreciating them!
[11:29] Zesta
    Frustrating though it may be...
[11:32] Arnes
    And what, exactly, can a human
    priest do against me?
[11:36] Cecily
    He can destroy you.
[11:48] Arnes
    You have quite the sense of humor.
[11:50] Arnes
    I am a servant of the great
    dark god, Wolbach, and I—
[11:53] Zesta
    Sacred Highness Exorcism!
[12:02] Zesta
    I beg your pardon, miss demon girl.
[12:07] Zesta
    I am the head of the Holy Order of Axis,
[12:12] Zesta
    the arch priest, Zesta.
[12:15] Cecily
    Likewise, I am a beautiful priest
    of the Axis Order, Cecily.
[12:21] Zesta
    Sister Cecily, it seems this demon girl
    is the perpetrator behind this mess.
[12:26] Cecily
    I believe so, Father Zesta.
[12:28] Cecily
    She's the reason you had
    to go through that ordeal.
[12:32] Arnes
    What are you talking about?
[12:35] Arnes
    What is any of this?
[12:37] Arnes
    I-I've been looking for
    Lady Wolbach ever since I got here!
[12:48] Zesta
    She's fleeing! After her!
[12:51] Zesta
    In the name of the Axis Church, make her
    rue the day she was born a demon girl!
[12:56] Cecily
    Right away, sir!

    Demons...
[13:00] Cecily
    ...must die!

[13:20] Yunyun
    So... does that take care of everything?
[13:24] Megumin
    Hard to say. I'd honestly rather not think
    about the Axis Sect at all anymore.
[13:32] Megumin
    What are you going to do now, Yunyun?
[13:35] Megumin
    I'm headed for the town of Axel.
[13:37] Megumin
    I heard there's someone there
    who can use explosion magic.
[13:41] Yunyun
    I...
[13:43] Yunyun
    I-I'm headed to Axel, too. I thought I could
    start training against weak monsters.
[13:50] Megumin
    Well, isn't that a coincidence?
[13:52] Megumin
    Go on ahead without me, then.
[13:54] Megumin
    I'll be along once I've earned
    enough money for the trip.
[13:58] Yunyun
    Huh?
[14:00] Yunyun
    B-But since I'm in no hurry...
[14:04] Yunyun
    I-I know! Maybe I'll do a bit of sightseeing
    around town, and then head to Axel...
[14:12] Zesta
    Ah, Miss Megumin, you're still here.
[14:16] Zesta
    That demon was a slippery one, I must say.
[14:19] Zesta
    I was enjoying her tears so much,
[14:21] Zesta
    I kept only grazing her with my
    magic, which let her escape.
[14:25] Megumin
    You seem happy about that.
[14:28] Zesta
    Don't be silly. I'm beside
    myself with frustration.
[14:33] Zesta
    Now, then, Miss Megumin, if you would...
[14:41] Megumin
    What is it?
[14:43] Zesta
    The cost of a coach trip to Axel.
[14:47] Zesta
    The recruitment methods you taught me...
[14:52] Zesta
    I'm certain they'll come
    in handy, yes indeed.
[14:55] Zesta
    Why, they might even become
    an attraction for the town.
[14:59] Zesta
    Consider that coach fare to
    be my way of thanking you.
[15:02] Zesta
    So, what will you do for today?
[15:05] Zesta
    Late as it is, I believe there's
    still one last departure for Axel...
[15:12] Megumin
    I can just go to Axel?
[15:14] Megumin
    I want to go.
[15:16] Megumin
    I want to get there as soon as possible,
    and tell her about what's happened!
[15:20] Megumin
    Then I want to gather companions,
[15:22] Megumin
    and unleash the explosion magic I've
    been aching to use for so long!
[15:26] Megumin
    I'll head there right away!
[15:28] Megumin
    Oh, Yunyun, you're going to do
    some sightseeing first, right?
[15:32] Megumin
    I'll just be heading to Axel first, then.
[15:36] Yunyun
    Aw, come on!
[15:37] Yunyun
    M-Maybe I've changed my mind?
[15:40] Yunyun
    If you go now and start training
    before me, you'll have an advantage!
[15:47] Zesta
    Miss Megumin, since it's late,
    why not stay the night?
[15:52] Zesta
    There are many from our order who'd
    like to give you their regards.
[15:56] Megumin
    Now that you mention it,
    that's a good point. What should I do?
[16:01] Zesta
    You could even stay another
    week, if you like.
[16:04] Megumin
    That might be nice!
[16:17] Cecily
    Isn't the water nice, Megumin?
[16:20] Cecily
    Bathing with a loli...
[16:24] Megumin
    Is there a reason that predatory gaze of
    yours has been making me feel threatened?
[16:29] Cecily
    What am I supposed to do?
    It's a tiny little bath.
[16:33] Cecily
    Y'know?
[16:33] Megumin
    Just know, I fight back when people
    try anything strange with me!
[16:38] Cecily
    Aw...
[16:39] Cecily
    Actually, there was something
    I wanted to tell you in private.
[16:48] Megumin
    Huh?!
[16:49] Megumin
    You mean Zesta did it after all?!
[16:51] Cecily
    That's right. Seems he mixed up the baking
    soda and slime mix when cleaning up.
[16:58] Megumin
    That was it?
[17:00] Cecily
    Which means it had nothing to
    do with demons, after all.
[17:04] Cecily
    But don't tell anyone else about this, okay?
[17:07] Cecily
    I want exclusive dibs on this
    piece of blackmail bait.
[17:11] Megumin
    Well, it doesn't really matter now, anyway.
[17:17] Megumin
    Uh... You're awfully close.
[17:19] Cecily
    It's a small bath! What can you do?
[17:23] Cecily
    Y'know, tight as it is, these baths
    apparently cost quite a bit to dig.
[17:29] Cecily
    They apparently hired a skilled mage who
    created the holes with rupture magic.
[17:35] Cecily
    See how nicely they're
    shaped in little rings?
[17:39] Megumin
    Rupture magic?
[17:41] Cecily
    Apparently. They wanted to
    make bigger baths, I heard.
[17:47] Megumin
    Miss...
[17:49] Cecily
    What is it?
[17:51] Cecily
    And I'd be really happy if you
    finally said "Big Sister Cecily"
[17:54] Cecily
    in an adoring voice, instead of just "miss."
[17:57] Megumin
    Miss!
[17:58] Megumin
    Let's see... You want a bigger
    open-air bath, right?
[18:03] Cecily
    That would be nice.
[18:04] Cecily
    Why do you ask? And why are
    your eyes sparkling like that?
[18:11] Megumin
    I can use explosion magic.
[18:16] Megumin
    Is it okay if I create the largest
    bath in this entire city?
[18:23] Cecily
    Yeah, of course.
[18:25] Cecily
    In the Axis Order, we believe anything
    goes, as long as it's not illegal!
[18:32] Cecily
    Follow your heart, and fire
    away with your magic!
[18:39] Megumin
    All right, miss.
[18:41] Cecily
    Call me Big Sister!
[18:42] Megumin
    Here we go, miss!
[18:51] Megumin
    I've been holding back ever
    since I got to Arcanretia.
[18:57] Megumin
    Explosion!
[19:32] Zesta
    I must say, I never would've guessed
    you could use explosion magic!
[19:37] Zesta
    I can't thank you enough, Miss Megumin.
[19:40] Zesta
    A bath that big can fit everyone
    in the order at once!
[19:45] Cecily
    No mixed bathing, Father Zesta.
[19:49] Zesta
    Well, be that as it may, I hope you'll come
    and visit us the next time you're in town.
[19:54] Megumin
    I think I will.
[19:56] Megumin
    Once I've found companions, if the
    subject of a vacation ever comes up,
[20:01] Megumin
    I believe we'll come straight here.
[20:04] Zesta
    May the divine Aqua offer her
    protection on your journey.
[20:09] Zesta
    Blessing.
[20:16] Yunyun
    U-Um, Father Zesta? Could you
    cast that spell on me, too?
[20:22] Megumin
    His troubles did begin with the
    letter you brought, Yunyun...
[20:25] Yunyun
    No fair! That wasn't my fault!
[20:30] Megumin
    I didn't do enough to earn
    something like this...
[20:34] Cecily
    It's okay. I'm sure you'll need it.
[20:40] Cecily
    Just take it! Kids don't
    need to be so considerate.
[20:52] Cecily
    Make good use of those
    once you get to Axel—
[20:57] Driver
    The coach for Axel is leaving!
[21:02] Megumin
    I'm heading out!
[21:03] Yunyun
    Wait for me!
[21:12] Driver
    This coach is now rolling out for Axel!
[21:20] Megumin
    The town for beginning adventurers, Axel.
[21:23] Megumin
    I'll make that my base of
    operations as I gather allies.
[21:28] Megumin
    Ideally, I'd like a party that's a match
    for me, full of advanced classes.
[21:34] Megumin
    A reliable, courageous leader.
[21:37] Megumin
    A sturdy front-line fighter.
[21:39] Megumin
    A benevolent healer...
[21:41] Megumin
    And me, the one who analyzes
    situations with her brilliant mind
[21:45] Megumin
    before delivering certain victory...

    with a single spell!

    Things sure are peaceful.
[00:16] Yunyun
    When you see scenery like this,
[00:18] Yunyun
    it's hard to believe the Devil King's army
    is causing trouble in the capital.
[00:23] Megumin
    If things proceed with no trouble, we should
    be in Axel in time for lunch tomorrow.
[00:29] Yunyun
    I know they taught you not to say stuff
    that sets flags like that at school!
[00:33] Yunyun
    It was even in a collection
    of phrases to avoid!
[00:35] Megumin
    I wouldn't worry.
[00:36] Megumin
    By my calculations, we have less than a
    0.1% chance of being attacked by monsters.
[00:42] Yunyun
    I just told you to stop!
[00:44] Yunyun
    You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?
[00:46] Megumin
    I honestly don't think there's
    anything to worry about.
[00:50] Megumin
    Most monsters wouldn't dare
    attack a group this large.
[00:53] Yunyun
    I-I guess you're right.

    Hey, Megumin, let me sit by the window, too.
[02:38] Megumin
    You are so excited.
    That's rather childish, Yunyun.
[02:42] Yunyun
    But we agreed to swap spots every
    hour, and you haven't budged once!
[02:47] Megumin
    I've only experienced about
    ten minutes of time passing.
[02:51] Yunyun
    What sense does that make?!
[02:52] Megumin
    Wow! A bunch of Lizard Runners are

    Come on, switch with me!

    If that's where you're going, I take

    Yes, I do.
[03:28] Megumin
    Wait, Yunyun, are you planning
    on becoming an adventurer?
[03:31] Megumin
    You mentioned training before...
[03:33] Yunyun
    I-I guess so? That's probably
    the way to go about it...
[03:37] Megumin
    First thing will be finding
    companions, then.
[03:40] Megumin
    That's a must for us.
[03:43] Yunyun
    I-I-It can be kind of inconvenient
    on your own, yeah.
[03:47] Yunyun
    S-So, Megumin...
[03:49] Yunyun
    W-Would...
[03:51] Megumin
    Having two spell casters in the same
    party is a bit unbalanced, though.
[03:56] Yunyun
    R-Right? It wouldn't be balanced!
[03:59] Megumin
    Here's hoping we can both find good parties.
[04:03] Yunyun
    Y-Yeah! Here's hoping! That'd be nice.
[04:08] Girl's Mother
    You girls seem like such good friends.
[04:11] Megumin
    We've just been stuck together, that's all.
[04:13] Girl's Mother
    Those red eyes...
    Are you two Crimson Demons?
[04:16] Girl's Mother
    I wouldn't worry. You'll have
    your pick of the crowd in Axel.
[04:20] Girl
    Crimson Demons?
[04:21] Girl's Mother
    They have a lot of magic power,

    Wow, you're amazing?
[04:27] Megumin
    Indeed!
[04:29] Megumin
    I, in particular, am an arch wizard known as
    the foremost prodigy among the Crimson Demons!
[04:33] Megumin
    Even if we come under monster attack,
    you can consider yourselves in good hands!

    Seriously... I keep asking you not to set—
[04:48] Adventurer 3A
    We've got monsters!
[04:50] Yunyun
    What did I tell you?!
[04:52] Yunyun
    I asked you not to set flags like that!
[04:54] Megumin
    Th-This is not my fault!
[04:56] Adventurer 3A
    Sorry to bother you!
[04:58] Adventurer 3A
    You girls are Crimson Demons, right?
[05:00] Adventurer 3A
    We could use your help!
[05:02] Adventurer 3A
    There are lot of monsters out here.
[05:04] Adventurer 3A
    We could use help from some
    Crimson Demon masters!
[05:07] Megumin
    "Master"?!
[05:09] Megumin
    Very well! I'll make quick
    work of these monsters!
[05:12] Yunyun
    Wha—Why are you suddenly so fired up?!
[05:15] Megumin
    He called us masters! It makes
    us sound like expert bodyguards!
[05:19] Adventurer 3A
    All right, masters, we're counting on you!
[05:21] Adventurer 3J
    There's a whole bunch of them, but they
    should be a cinch for masters like you!
[05:24] Megumin
    We're fighting for the dignity
    of the Crimson Demons.
[05:29] Megumin
    Come, let the battle be joined!
[05:35] Megumin
    I am called Megumin! Let all who wish
    to be reduced to a crater step—
[05:47] Adventurer 3A
    That's a giant earthworm, a weak monster!
[05:50] Adventurer 3J
    Its attacks are weak, but it's
    resilient and hard to kill.

    but you'll hit everyone else, too!

    Please, let me go! Let me
    obliterate these freaky things!
[06:14] Megumin
    It's looking right at us!
    It's heading this way!
[06:17] Yunyun
    I-I-I'll figure something out!
[06:19] Megumin
    It's coming right for us!

    Fireball!

    With a single attack? Damn!
[06:29] Adventurer 3A
    This should be easy!

    There are lots more left,
    so we're counting on you!

    Guess I'll go protect the coach...

    Now that was a performance
    worthy of a Crimson Demon.

    N-No, it wasn't anything special...

    I-I didn't do that much...

    Here you go, Master! Eat plenty
    and recover your magic power!
[07:30] Yunyun
    Th-Thank you very much.
[07:33] Adventurer 3A
    I gotta say, your magic was
    really something, Yunyun!
[07:36] Adventurer 3J
    Maybe you should start calling
    yourself the foremost spell caster

    Are you okay, miss? Were you hurt?
[07:48] Megumin
    Oh, no.

    Hey, you're actually stronger
    than the ribbon lady, right?
[07:55] Megumin
    That's right.
[07:56] Girl
    Then we'll be okay even if more,
    stronger monsters show up!
[08:00] Megumin
    Indeed! If that happens, I'll show
    you magic that guarantees victory!

    I can't wait to see that!

    What are you doing?

    I'm... helping keep watch.
[08:29] Megumin
    Is that right?
[08:33] Yunyun
    Hey, I did a pretty good job today, right?
[08:38] Megumin
    Are you mocking my complete
    lack of contribution?
[08:42] Yunyun
    N-No!
[08:44] Yunyun
    It's just, y'know, I didn't stand
    out much in the village, right?
[08:49] Megumin
    Correct. I often wondered if you were
    using a Lurk skill, to be honest.
[08:55] Yunyun
    You are just...
[08:57] Yunyun
    Well, my point is, after helping out today
    and having people rely on me...

    I feel a little more confident.
[09:14] Yunyun
    I wanted to wait until I learned
    advanced magic before asking, but...

    mind... would you...

    Well done.

    You certainly stole the show, didn't you?

[10:17] Yunyun
    H-Huh?
[10:18] Megumin
    Looks like your party problem
    has already been solved.
[10:21] Megumin
    Good for you.
[10:23] Yunyun
    B-But I...
[10:26] Adventurer 3J
    What was the other Crimson Demon girl doing?
[10:29] Adventurer 3J
    She was just loafing around
    this afternoon, too...
[10:29] Yunyun
    Since we're both Crimson Demons...
    And we know each other pretty well...

    I'm sure she was just
    protecting the carriages.

    fired off at least one spell?

    Would you just listen to me?!

    I don't have all my magic power back

[11:07] Girl
    Some more monsters attacked
    last night, right?
[11:11] Girl
    Did you fight, too?
[11:12] Megumin
    I'm something of a weapon
    of last resort, you see.
[11:16] Megumin
    I'll be up once a real threat appears!
[11:19] Megumin
    Which is why I had my underling
    clear out the weaklings last night.
[11:23] Yunyun
    I'm not your underling!

    But I'm pretty certain there won't
    be further monster attacks.

    A force like this stood little
    chance against us Crimson Demons.
[12:11] Yunyun
    Don't try to sum it up like you helped!
    Not when I'm totally exhausted!
[12:17] Megumin
    So many attacks in such
    a short period of time...
[12:21] Megumin
    Still, we're nearly to
    our destination, Axel.
[12:25] Megumin
    We should be able to relax from here on out.
[12:28] Yunyun
    When you say stuff like that...
[12:30] Arnes
    Cursed Lightning!
[12:36] Megumin
    Wh-What was that?!
[12:41] Arnes
    You seem awfully tired.
[12:44] Arnes
    This time, Lady Wolbach is coming with me!
[12:52] Yunyun
    Arnes!
[12:53] Megumin
    Obstinate to a fault.
[12:55] Megumin
    This cat's name is Chomusuke, and it's mine.
    Why not just give up already?
[12:59] Arnes
    You're the only one who
    should give anything up.
[13:01] Arnes
    And since we've already made an exchange,
[13:04] Arnes
    if you refuse to return Lady Wolbach,
    you should give my money back.
[13:08] Megumin
    I-I-I-I will not be extorted
    by the likes of you!
[13:11] Megumin
    The Axis sect taught me that it's totally
    fine to ignore and otherwise break
[13:15] Megumin
    any kind of bargains involving demons!
[13:18] Yunyun
    That was low, even for you.
[13:21] Arnes
    This is why humans can't be trusted.
[13:24] Arnes
    There used to be a service where we
    would exchange services for souls,
[13:30] Arnes
    but you people would always come
    up with some ridiculous excuse
[13:32] Arnes
    to get out of paying after
    your wish was granted...
[13:36] Arnes
    Or you would ask for something
    ridiculous in the first place.
[13:39] Arnes
    Humans should live more honest lives!
[13:44] Megumin
    Didn't expect a demon to
    take the moral high ground.
[13:47] Arnes
    Honestly, the money wouldn't
    make a difference.
[13:50] Arnes
    I have a mission that means I must take Lady
    Wolbach back, by any means necessary.
[13:59] Arnes
    Say your prayers.
[14:00] Adventurer 3J
    Surround her!
[14:06] Arnes
    Stand aside.
[14:11] Arnes
    I have no use for you pests.
[14:15] Yunyun
    I-I won't let you hurt them!
[14:18] Arnes
    Spare me the transparent bravado.
[14:21] Arnes
    I've already confirmed your
    magic power is spent.
[14:25] Megumin
    Then those giant worms,
    and all the other monsters...
[14:29] Arnes
    You noticed?
[14:31] Arnes
    Yes, those were just my
    way of paying you back!
[14:34] Megumin
    Damn you! People thought I was
    useless because of that!
[14:41] Arnes
    Yes, that's what I've been wanting to see!
[14:44] Arnes
    After the humiliation
    you've put me through...
[14:48] Arnes
    It's time to finally settle the score!
[14:51] Megumin
    That's one thing we agree on!
[14:53] Megumin
    And now you're going to taste my fury!
[14:56] Arnes
    How, exactly?
[14:57] Arnes
    You're a runt who can't even use magic.
[15:01] Arnes
    A little more clever than
    most, but that's all.
[15:05] Arnes
    A runt—no, less than that. You're useless!
[15:08] Arnes
    A Crimson Demon in name only!
[15:11] Yunyun
    Megumin isn't useless!
    She's way more amazing than me!
[15:15] Yunyun
    Sh-She'll defeat you!
[15:17] Arnes
    The useful one is out of magic power,
[15:20] Arnes
    and I don't sense any useless
    men that can darken my day.
[15:23] Arnes
    There is no chance at all of a Crimson
    Demon-in-name-only having a chance
[15:27] Arnes
    against me at my best—
[15:29] Megumin
    I wouldn't say that.
[15:31] Megumin
    Saying things like "There's no way
    I can lose" sets a flag, apparently.
[15:35] Megumin
    A clichéd one spouted by only the
    most pitiful weaklings, at that.
[15:39] Arnes
    Where's this bluster come from?
[15:40] Megumin
    You think I'm all talk?
    Then I'll have to show you otherwise!
[15:46] Megumin
    You need Chomusuke no matter what, right?
[15:50] Megumin
    Well, if you want her so bad...
[15:58] Megumin
    Go get her!
[16:05] Yunyun
    What is wrong with you?!
[16:06] Arnes
    Lady Wolbach!
[16:15] Arnes
    Light of dawn that pierces the gray.
[16:18] Arnes
    Breath of giants that sweeps the wilderness.
[16:20] Arnes
    In accordance with my pact,
    let the crimson sinner—
[16:23] Yunyun
    Don't! Stop!
[16:26] Megumin
    Get off me! You're keeping me from
    blowing away that chunky demon!
[16:30] Yunyun
    No! You're gonna blow Chomusuke away, too!
[16:32] Megumin
    She's my familiar!
[16:34] Megumin
    It's natural that she be
    sacrificed to save her master!
[16:37] Megumin
    We can make a grave later—
[16:38] Yunyun
    I am not letting go! Never!
    Megumin, you monster!
[16:46] Arnes
    O my dark goddess,
    mistress of sloth and violence...
[16:50] Arnes
    From beyond the seven doors of the abyss,
[16:52] Arnes
    grant me the power to sink the sky!
[17:02] Megumin
    Huh?
[17:03] Megumin
    That bracelet...
[17:07] Megumin
    That's one of my father's!
[17:10] Megumin
    Thank you for your purchase!
[17:22] Arnes
    Is it this?
[17:23] Arnes
    Is it because of this thing?!
[17:25] (Flashback) Parents
    Thanks for your purchase!
[17:30] Arnes
    You wretch...
[17:33] Arnes
    You're their daughter?!
[17:40] Yunyun
    You stupid, stupid, stupid Megumin!
[17:43] Yunyun
    You made it even worse!
[17:44] Megumin
    I-I'm just trying to be a
    grateful Crimson Demon!
[17:47] Arnes
    I will never let you escape!
[17:49] Arnes
    I'll see your soul reduced to cinders!
[17:52] Yunyun
    There's nothing we can do about that!
[17:57] Yunyun
    Oh god, or gods! Goddess of luck, Eris!
[18:01] Megumin
    You're a Crimson Demon!
    Pray to a destroyer god or something!
[18:04] Arnes
    Cowardly and repugnant humans!
    You will pay for your sins!
[18:09] Yunyun
    Gods, if we can all survive this,
[18:12] Yunyun
    I swear I'll find a way to teach Megumin
    how to act like a human being!
[18:15] Yunyun
    I'm begging you—
[18:16] Megumin
    Cut that out! The world isn't convenient
    enough for that kind of last-minute nonsense!
[18:20] Yunyun
    Please! Please, save us!
[18:22] Yunyun
    The nameless evil god sealed in
    the village! Destroyer gods!
[18:26] Yunyun
    And divine Eris!
[18:28] Yunyun
    Even the goddess of water, Aqua!
[18:43] Arnes
    Wh-What is this incredible magic power?
[18:45] Arnes
    No... it's a divine aura.
[18:52] Arnes
    So much divinity... I-It couldn't be...
[18:56] Arnes
    I-Impossible!
[19:00] Arnes
    Ow.
[19:16] Arnes
    Wh-What?
[19:18] Arnes
    That's...
[19:21] Megumin
    The greatest and most
    powerful spell of all...
[19:23] Megumin
    Explosion magic.
[19:26] Arnes
    Well, I should apologize for
    saying you're all talk.
[19:31] Arnes
    Why don't you tell me your name, young lady?
[19:34] Megumin
    I am called Megumin!
[19:36] Megumin
    The foremost prodigy and spell caster
    among Crimson Demons,
[19:40] Megumin
    wielder of explosion magic!
[19:44] Arnes
    I see.
[19:45] Arnes
    You really are an oddball, aren't you?!
[19:48] Arnes
    Cursed Lightning!
[19:52] Megumin
    Explosion!
[20:23] Megumin
    This hell ends now, Arnes!
[20:34] Arnes
    Forgive me, my mistress.
[20:39] Arnes
    But I know you will be restored one day.
[21:10] Yunyun
    M-Megumin!
[21:23] Master
    Now that was quite the display!
[21:26] Master
    Yes, I was certain all along that you
    were a master magus, Miss Megumin!
[21:33] Megumin
    Oh, of course. I truly am the foremost
    Crimson Demon spell caster.
[21:39] Girl
    You really are amazing,
    lady! That was so cool!
[21:46] Girl
    Thank you for saving my
    mom and everyone else!
[21:52] Megumin
    Sure.
[21:56] Megumin
    What is it? Why are you staring?
[22:01] Yunyun
    You really are impressive, Megumin.
[22:04] Megumin
    What brought that on?
[22:06] Yunyun
    Because it's true.
    Beating a demon like that...
[22:12] Megumin
    It should be obvious that I'm impressive.
[22:16] Yunyun
    Y'know, I think you should forget
    about that stuff I said last night.
[22:23] Megumin
    What?
[22:23] Yunyun
    D-Don't get me wrong! It's not that
    I don't want to be in the same party!
[22:29] Yunyun
    It's just that...
[22:31] Yunyun
    I feel like I'm just gonna be
    in your way at this rate.
[22:36] Yunyun
    Which is why...
[22:38] Yunyun
    I'm going to train a lot, and once I learn
    advanced magic, then we can settle things!
[22:45] Yunyun
    And then...
[22:47] Megumin
    That's fine by me.
[22:50] Megumin
    Granted, no amount of training
[22:52] Megumin
    will result in anything other than
    you crying tears of frustration.
[22:56] Yunyun
    Keep talking!
[22:57] Yunyun
    I'm gonna get so strong,
    you'll be asking for my help!
[23:04] Driver
    There it is, folks!
[23:11] Yunyun
    This is where it starts for us.
[23:16] Megumin

[23:25] Yunyun
    Big trouble, Megumin...
[23:27] Yunyun
    Finding companions is seriously big trouble.
[23:29] Megumin
    It seems making your debut as an adventurer
    is more complicated than I imagined.
[23:31] Megumin
    How is having powerful magic a problem?!
[23:34] Yunyun
    Usability, for one thing.

[00:02] Kazuma
    This is a load of crap!
[00:03] Kazuma
    How is someone from modern times
    supposed to sleep in a stable?!
[00:06] Aqua
    And you think this is what I wanted?!
[00:09] Aqua
    Well, we don't have any money,
    so we've got no options!
[00:13] Kazuma
    Damn it all! This isn't the kind
    of life I wanted to live here!
[00:17] Aqua
    I should be saying that!
[00:27] Megumin
    Listen well, Yunyun.
[00:29] Megumin
    At times like these, the first
    impression is crucial.
[00:32] Megumin
    Given that we are newcomers, and
    young, we will be looked down upon.
[00:36] Megumin
    So when the door opens, we must
    declare ourselves in a grand fashion!
[00:39] Yunyun
    Do we have to? It's gonna
    draw so much attention.
[00:42] Megumin
    We are doing it in order
    to attract attention!
[00:44] Megumin
    Crimson Demons cannot be
    the target of derision!
[00:47] Megumin
    Come, off we go!
[00:49] Yunyun
    I hope we don't get mixed
    up with any scary people...
[00:55] Megumin
    I am called Megumin!
[00:57] Megumin

[02:41] Megumin
    Apparently, there's a bulletin board at the
    Adventurer's Guild for soliciting party members.
[02:46] Megumin
    We should ask how to accept
    quests while we're at it.
[02:49] Yunyun
    Good idea. We'll need to start by accepting
    quests to cover our daily necessities,
[02:54] Yunyun
    and we need companions to do that.
[02:59] Luna
    Oh! What brings you two by so early?
[03:02] Megumin
    H-Hello there.
[03:03] Megumin
    My name is Megumin, and I'm an arch wizard.
[03:06] Megumin
    So... this is my first time
    seeking work as an adventurer,
[03:10] Megumin
    and I'm not quite sure what to do.
[03:12] Luna
    Oh, those eyes...
    You're Crimson Demons, aren't you?
[03:15] Luna
    I believe you create your
    adventurer's card at school, right?
[03:20] Luna
    I can explain how we use it
    over at the reception desk.
[03:31] Megumin
    Excuse me! Is it okay if I get
    the explanation a bit later?
[03:36] Luna
    Well, I suppose that's fine...
[03:38] Yunyun
    Wait, Megumin, you're not gonna hear her out?
[03:41] Yunyun
    I'm gonna go ahead and hear about it now.
[03:44] Megumin
    Not a problem. I believe I'll wait
    until there are more people around.
[03:53] Yunyun
    E-Excuse me...
[03:59] Megumin
    This should do nicely.
[04:03] Luna
    Next person in line, please.
[04:06] Luna
    Oh, it's the Crimson Demon from before.
[04:08] Megumin
    It's as you say. I am a Crimson Demon!
[04:11] Megumin
    Starting today, I will be
    operating in this town,
[04:14] Megumin
    so I have come for an explanation
    of the adventurer's card!
[04:16] Adventurers
    A Crimson Demon?
[04:18] Adventurers
    I've never seen one before.
[04:19] Luna
    If you'll let me examine
    your card for a moment...
[04:23] Luna
    O-Oh, my!
[04:24] Luna
    This is remarkable!
    Crimson Demons live up to their reputation.
[04:27] Luna
    Your intelligence and magic
    power stats are incredible!
[04:31] Megumin
    Yes, this is what I was after!
[04:33] Megumin
    Now the adventurers of this town
    won't dare look down on me!
[04:37] Luna
    Not quite as much as the
    woman from yesterday,
[04:39] Luna
    but your magic power is
    definitely remarkable.
[04:42] Luna
    Here you go. The card is the genuine article,
    and there's no criminal record mentioned.
[04:46] Luna
    You'll be able to accept work from now on.
[04:49] Megumin
    Wait, hang on. "Not as much
    as the woman from yesterday"?
[04:53] Megumin
    You're saying there's someone with
    even more magic power than me?!
[04:58] Luna
    Yes. I helped her register as an adventurer...
[05:02] Luna
    But her intelligence was too low
    to qualify for any mage classes.
[05:07] Luna
    I believe she ended up as an arch priest.
[05:12] Megumin
    An arch priest...
[05:16] Roughneck
    Hey. Haven't seen you around before.
[05:20] Roughneck
    You looking for a crew?
[05:23] Megumin
    Indeed I am.
[05:26] Roughneck
    You're gonna want to avoid those two, then.
[05:29] Roughneck
    With them, all the luck in the
    world couldn't save your skin.
[05:33] Adventurer 2
    He's right about that. Keep away from them.
[05:36] Adventurer 1
    And one's an Axis cultist, of all things.
[05:38] Adventurer 1
    She'd be pretty promising if every word
    out of her mouth wasn't so obnoxious.
[05:41] Adventurer 2
    She's probably shouting that nonsense
    because she's an Axis cult priestess.
[05:46] Adventurer 2
    Anyway, you wanna join our party?
[05:48] Adventurer 1
    Whoa, hang on, no fair! I get to ask first!
[05:50] Adventurer 3
    Our party has two members with advanced
    classes! What do you think?
[05:53] Unmarked Ad Libs
    We've got advanced classes, too.
    She'd fit in great with us.
[05:54] Unmarked Ad Libs
    Our old wizard suddenly switched
    classes, so we're kind of at a loss...
[06:05] Ryze
    My name's Ryze, and I'm a warrior!
[06:08] Ryze
    This is my little sister, Laina.
[06:10] Laina
    I'm a thief. Nice to meet you.
[06:12] Megumin
    My name is Megumin. It's a pleasure.
[06:16] Siblings
    That's your real name?
[06:17] Megumin
    Indeed it is, and if you've got a
    problem with that, let's hear it.
[06:21] Ryze
    No! It's not a problem at all.
[06:23] Ryze
    Come to think of it, 
    you are a Crimson Demon.
[06:26] Laina
    R-Right. I think it's a lovely name.
[06:29] Ryze
    You're sure about wanting
    to join up with us?
[06:31] Ryze
    I would've thought you'd prefer a
    party with more advanced classes...
[06:34] Megumin
    The bigger the share of
    the rewards, the better.
[06:37] Megumin
    Don't worry! Consider yourselves in good hands.
[06:40] Ryze
    You sound pretty confident! That's reassuring.
[06:43] Laina
    Yeah!
[06:44] Megumin
    I noticed there was a quest for
    exterminating chestnut rats posted.
[06:47] Megumin
    For now, let's go through a simple quest,
    and see how we work together as a party.
[06:52] Megumin
    Consider it a bit of a trial period!
[06:59] Megumin
    I'm almost out of money from paying
    off the chestnut trees I blew up...
[07:29] (Flashback) Megumin
    What do you think?
[07:30] (Flashback) Laina
    Well, where do I begin?
[07:33] (Flashback) Laina
    I don't think rookie adventurers like us
[07:35] (Flashback) Laina
    could provide you with the kind of
    opportunities you deserve, Megumin!
[07:39] (Flashback) Ryze
    R-Right, exactly!
[07:40] (Flashback) Ryze
    You have this incredible explosion magic.
[07:43] (Flashback) Ryze
    You'd be wasting your
    potential in our party!
[07:47] (Flashback) Megumin
    I don't mind, really.
[07:49] (Flashback) Megumin
    We can all take our time growing together.
[07:52] (Flashback) Ryze
    No, we couldn't! Besides,
    we're only a duo, and just starting out.
[07:55] (Flashback) Ryze
    It was a presumptuous to try
    and recruit a Crimson Demon!
[07:59] (Flashback) Laina
    Exactly! It's, like, a question of balance?
    We're just not on your level!
[08:13] Bar Owner
    How do you not know what a saury is?!
[08:15] Bar Owner
    What kind of life have you even lived?!
[08:17] Bar Owner
    All I asked was for you to grab two saury
    from the field behind the guild hall!
[08:21] Kazuma
    Screw you, old timer!
[08:23] Kazuma
    You think you can mess with me just
    because I'm a kid who's new in town?!
[08:26] Bar Owner
    Put a sock in it! And what the hell
    has your little buddy been doing?!
[08:29] Bar Owner
    Serving my customers that damned water!
[08:31] Bar Owner
    Where the hell is the booze I gave you?!
    Did you drink it all?! Is that it?!
[08:35] Aqua
    I-It's not like that! My fingers
    just happened to touch the liquor!
[08:38] Aqua
    I have a condition!
[08:40] Aqua
    The truth is, I'm the water goddess—
[08:41] Megumin
    I'll have Yunyun treat me to dinner.
[08:42] Bar Owner
    You're both fired!
[08:50] Yunyun
    H-Hello!
[08:51] Yunyun
    It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Yunyun.
[08:54] Yunyun
    I'm an arch wizard, but can only
    use intermediate magic so far...
[09:00] Megumin
    What kind of attitude is that?
[09:02] Megumin
    And here I thought I could
    do a favor for one of my kin,
[09:05] Megumin
    who was sulking by herself in the corner
    of a pub, by sharing a meal with her.
[09:08] Yunyun
    Food? You want to eat with me?
[09:12] Megumin
    It's only been one day so far. A bit
    too early to start getting depressed.
[09:16] Megumin
    Ma'am! One salt-grilled saury dinner special!
[09:19] Yunyun
    M-Make it two!
[09:24] Megumin
    Now, then...
[09:26] Megumin
    Let's try one of these today.
[09:31] Yunyun
    "Looking for party members.
[09:33] Yunyun
    Wanted: kind people, people who
    will listen to boring stories,
[09:37] Yunyun
    people who won't laugh at silly names,
[09:39] Yunyun
    people who want to hang out
    even if there are no quests.
[09:41] Yunyun
    Preferably close in age.
    All classes accepted.
[09:44] Yunyun
    I am an arch wizard and—"
[09:54] Megumin
    This is for Yunyun's own good.
[09:58] Megumin
    Now, then...
[10:00] Megumin
    "Searching for a blonde-haired,
    blue-eyed noble girl."
[10:04] Megumin
    That is quite the reward!
[10:06] Megumin
    Maybe I'll pursue it once I get
    closer to running out of money.
[10:11] Megumin
    This one is soliciting for...
[10:13] Megumin
    A spell caster!
[10:18] Ein
    I see. So you're Megumin.
[10:20] Ein
    That's a Crimson Demon
    name if I ever heard one.
[10:22] Ein
    We're counting on you.
[10:24] Megumin
    It's a pleasure to join you.
[10:25] Ein
    For now, let's—
[10:26] Darkness
    Just you wait, demon of the forest!
[10:27] Darkness
    I don't care what manner of
    shame is waiting for me.
[10:30] Darkness
    I am going to slay you!
[10:32] Chris
    Come on, how many times do you plan on
    getting covered head to toe in goop?!
[10:36] Darkness
    In the name of the divine Eris,
    I am going to slaughter that demon!
[10:40] Chris
    Oh, you're all sticky!
[10:41] Chris
    Maybe you should get changed first? Come on!
[10:42] Darkness
    Don't mind me.
[10:43] Darkness
    Don't mind me—
[10:43] Chris
    Come on! Please!
[10:45] Ein
    Well, there's a feisty pair.
[10:48] Lott
    Demonic monsters have been
    spotted in the area lately.
[10:52] Lott
    We're supposed to be hunting
    one of them, but...
[10:57] Ein
    Come on, we've got a Crimson Demon
    mage with us. We'll be fine.
[11:01] Megumin
    Indeed, you will!
[11:02] Megumin
    Demon or not, I'll defeat whatever
    it is in a single blow!
[11:15] Megumin
    Explosion!
[11:34] Ein
    Damn, you Crimson Demons really earn
    your reputation! I'm impressed.
[11:38] Ein
    You actually took out a slime, with all
    its magic resistance, in one shot.
[11:42] Lott
    I dunno how to say this...
    I owe you an apology.
[11:45] Lott
    I figured you were one of those mages
    that were all talk. I'm sorry.
[11:51] Megumin
    No, there's actually something
    I should come clean about.
[11:55] Megumin
    The apologies can wait until after that.
[11:59] Megumin
    The truth is, the explosion magic you saw
    earlier is the only spell I can cast.
[12:03] Megumin
    In other words, I can only use
    that spell, and only once a day.
[12:07] Megumin
    It's excellent for foes like the
    one from this afternoon, but...
[12:12] Megumin
    Does your party really contend with
    those kinds of threats every day?
[12:17] Ein
    And you have... no other spells?
    Like intermediate magic?
[12:20] Megumin
    I do not.
[12:22] Lott
    Well, even if you don't,
[12:25] Lott
    we could help you level up, and then
    maybe learn some intermediate magic to—
[12:30] Megumin
    I have no intention of
    learning any skills that won't
[12:32] Megumin
    maximize the potency of my explosion magic.
[12:37] Ein
    Sorry, but... you're gonna
    need to find another party.
[12:44] Megumin
    I thought I should've let
    them know early on...
[12:48] Megumin
    Could it be that I am not,
    in fact, a prodigy?
[12:52] Audience 1
    Damn!
[12:53] Audience 2
    How did she do that?! I've never
    seen a trick like that before!
[12:56] Audience 1
    Hey, I want in on this!
    Gimme one of those bananas!
[12:59] Audience 2
    Same here!
[13:00] Audience 3
    I want some!
[13:01] Audience 3
    Two bunches for me!
[13:03] Kazuma
    Thank you so much!
[13:04] Kazuma
    Hey, if this keeps up, we'll hit our quota easy!
[13:07] Kazuma
    Come on, hand over those bananas that
    you hid. Let's make some money!
[13:10] Aqua
    What are you talking about? I made
    them disappear. They're gone.
[13:14] Aqua
    Come on, hand me some new
    bananas that we can sell!
[13:18] Kazuma
    Are you freaking kidding me?!
    Stop spouting nonsense!
[13:20] Kazuma
    Bananas, now—
[13:22] Fruit Stand Owner
    You're fired!
[13:23] Aqua Unmarked Ad Lib
    Hang on a sec—
[13:23] Unmarked Ad Lib
    Gimme my bananas back!
[13:25] Unmarked Ad Libs
    You sure you didn't count them wrong?
[13:27] Unmarked Ad Libs
    You'd better not have eaten them!
[13:28] Kazuma Unmarked Ad Libs
    We need this money!
[13:29] Unmarked Ad Libs
    What did you say?!
[13:30] Aqua Unmarked Ad Libs
    We're sleeping in the damned stables!
[13:32] Unmarked Ad Libs
    I don't care!
[13:33] Kazuma Unmarked Ad Libs
    This is your fault, you useless goddess!
[13:39] Yunyun
    Oh, welcome back, Megumin!
    I've got some bananas. Want any?
[13:48] Yunyun
    So, how'd it go today?
    Did you find a nice party yet?
[13:52] Megumin
    No. We took on a quest together, but...
[13:55] Megumin
    They said that I was wasted on a party like
    theirs, and they declined me joining them.
[14:01] Yunyun
    I see. Well, your magic is powerful,
    but only useful in certain situations.
[14:06] Megumin
    What about you, Yunyun? Any takers?
[14:09] Megumin
    You've been posting on
    the bulletin board, right?
[14:11] Yunyun
    Someone did. But I'm not so sure...
[14:14] Yunyun
    He was obviously about as old as my dad,
[14:19] Yunyun
    but he said, "We're about
    the same age, aren't we?
[14:21] Yunyun
    Leave it to me! I'll keep
    you safe, sweetheart."
[14:26] Yunyun
    Your turn, Megumin.
[14:28] Megumin
    You turned him down, right?
    You had to have, yes?
[14:32] Yunyun
    W-Well, yeah...
[14:34] Yunyun
    But he was willing to chat
    with me and bought me lunch,
[14:39] Yunyun
    and he seemed really nice.
[14:40] Yunyun
    And he said he wanted
    to talk again sometime.
[14:43] Yunyun
    And that's check.
[14:45] Megumin
    If I back off, her Swordmaster
    can charge in...
[14:49] Megumin
    But this piece is within
    her Archer's range, so...
[14:53] Yunyun
    Do you think people are avoiding us
    because of how young we are?
[14:58] Megumin
    I haven't seen many mages around town,
[15:02] Megumin
    so there should be plenty of demand...
[15:05] Megumin
    No other options. Teleport!
[15:09] Yunyun
    You underestimated me because the
    Adventurer is the weakest piece, didn't you?
[15:13] Yunyun
    Well, this one is changing
    classes to Swordmaster!
[15:15] Yunyun
    Looks like the game's just about over!
[15:22] Megumin
    Explosion!
[15:24] Megumin
    Come now, Yunyun, let's get to bed
    so we can be ready for another day!
[15:28] Yunyun
    Hey! Don't sleep already!
    You didn't let me avenge my loss!
[15:32] Yunyun
    Aw come on, no fair!
    Let's play again! Again!
[15:33] Megumin
    Tomorrow, I will have my companions.
[15:41] Megumin
    Explosion!
[15:56] Megumin
    For this entire week, I've been joining and
    completing quests with assorted parties...
[16:02] Megumin
    And every time,
[16:04] Megumin
    once the job is done, they put me
    at arm's length and break our contact.
[16:09] Megumin
    It seems a mage who can only use
    explosion magic is of little use.
[16:14] Megumin
    They're acting like I'm not needed...
[16:17] Megumin
    Me... the child prodigy...
[16:21] Megumin
    Me...
[16:23] Megumin
    They're treating me like that!
[16:29] Bossman
    You again?!
[16:33] Megumin
    My apologies. I'll be in need
    of your help again today.
[16:40] Bossman
    You get the amount of work it takes
    to fill these craters, right?
[16:44] Bossman
    Use that spell of yours further away from
    town next time, on a strong monster.
[16:49] Megumin
    After using my magic, I'm rendered
    immobile due to magic power depletion.
[16:49] Aqua
    Unbelievable! Why is a divine
    water goddess like me
[16:52] Aqua
    having to do infrastructure crap like this?!
[16:53] Megumin
    If I were unable to move
    while far away from town,
[16:55] Aqua
    It doesn't even have anything to do with water!
[16:55] Megumin
    I'd be devoured by a swarm
    of monsters in short order.
[16:57] Kazuma
    Because we've run out of
    jobs that don't involve
[16:58] Kazuma
    sweating our asses off under the
    glaring sun! Besides, it's easy!
[16:59] Megumin
    That's just how explosion magic works.
[17:01] Aqua
    I wanna do sales again!
    Let me try one more time!
[17:01] Bossman
    That magic of yours sure
    doesn't sound very convenient.
[17:04] Bossman
    Come to think of it, that poor
    shopkeeper could use it, too.
[17:04] Aqua
    I think I've got it figured out this time!
[17:06] Kazuma
    Where is all this confidence coming from?!
[17:07] Megumin
    What poor shopkeeper?
[17:09] Bossman
    She runs a famous magic item shop in town.
[17:09] Kazuma
    Quit whining already and get to work!
[17:12] Kazuma
    It's time to surpass our physical limits!
[17:13] Bossman
    Used to be an adventurer.
[17:14] Aqua
    Ew! You're a shut-in NEET!
    Where is all this positivity coming from?!
[17:15] Bossman
    I heard she was a hell of a spell caster,
    with a hell of a rack to boot...
[17:18] Bossman
    But doesn't have a clue
    about running a business.
[17:19] Kazuma
    I am not...
[17:22] Megumin
    Finally, a clue to her whereabouts.
[17:31] Bossman
    Well, if I were you, I'd scare up some
    companions before anything else.
[17:38] Megumin
    At least now... I know I can
    see her when I'm ready.
[17:45] Megumin
    But first, I need to sort myself out
    as a proper adventurer in this town!
[18:05] Lady Adventurer
    Down this goes...
[18:08] Megumin
    Excuse me.
[18:09] Lady Adventurer
    Y-Yes?! How can I help you?!
[18:11] Megumin
    I was hoping to get a look at
    the notice you just took down.
[18:15] Lady Adventurer
    I'd rather you didn't.
[18:17] Megumin
    Give it!
[18:21] Megumin
    "Spell caster classes wanted.
    No magic specification necessary."
[18:24] Megumin
    Well, this certainly is convenient!
[18:27] Megumin
    I just so happen to be a mage
    who's free at the moment...
[18:30] Lady Adventurer
    S-Sorry, the position's been filled!
[18:32] Lady Adventurer
    Just a few moments ago, actually...
[18:34] Lady Adventurer
    That's why I was taking it down—
[18:37] Megumin
    I've had enough of these excuses.
[18:40] Megumin
    What is this? Some sort of
    explosion magic prejudice?
[18:42] Megumin
    Has the entire guild decided to cancel me?
[18:47] Megumin
    What are you doing?! Quit it!
[18:49] Luna
    What's all this about?! Settle down!
[18:54] Luna
    Megumin, you can't be
    fighting in the guild hall!
[18:58] Luna
    If you're going to fight, take it outside!
[19:01] Megumin
    Fine.
[19:02] Man
    I'm begging you!
[19:04] Man
    Even a date would be fine... just
    for an hour! Even thirty minutes!
[19:09] Yunyun
    But that's not really what I'm here for...
[19:12] Man
    Please! Please! Please! Please!
[19:15] Man
    You're the only one I can turn to, Yunyun!
[19:20] Yunyun
    I-In that case... I guess just
    a little while would be fine...
[19:24] Man
    Really?!
[19:28] Megumin
    Like hell it would!
[19:31] Megumin
    What in the world are you doing?!
[19:33] Yunyun
    B-But he said he needs money, and a
    fake girlfriend, for his sick mom...
[19:37] Megumin
    Those are obviously total lies!
[19:39] Megumin
    Just how easily duped can one girl be?
[19:42] Megumin
    What else?! Have any other weirdos made
    bizarre requests of you while I was gone?
[19:47] Yunyun
    N-Nothing bizarre, no.
[19:50] Yunyun
    But the old man who's
    always day drinking here
[19:53] Yunyun
    asked me to start calling him "Daddy,"
    and offered me some allowance money...
[19:59] Megumin
    And you took it?!
[20:00] Yunyun
    No. I actually gave him some of mine,
    since he seemed to be down on his luck...
[20:05] Megumin
    You gave him money?!
[20:07] Yunyun
    Wh-What else could I have done?
[20:09] Yunyun
    He's drinking here by himself every single day!
[20:12] Yunyun
    When he talked to me, he said he was
    gathering alms for the Axis sect...
[20:16] Megumin
    Why do you even have that?!
    Throw it away right now!
[20:22] Megumin
    Unbelievable!
[20:24] Megumin
    I tried leaving you be, hoping it'd help
    you grow out of your awkwardness,
[20:27] Megumin
    but it's gotten so much worse, you're
    approaching a dangerous threshold!
[20:32] Megumin
    Then again, there's my own lack of funds
[20:34] Megumin
    and difficulty in finding
    adventuring companions...
[20:38] Megumin
    I've got it!
[20:40] Megumin
    What do you say? Until we
    each find new party members,
[20:45] Megumin
    we could temporarily form a party.
[20:49] Yunyun
    What?!
[20:51] Megumin
    I only offered to form a party.
[20:54] Megumin
    Why are you so shocked?
[20:57] Yunyun
    S-Say, Megumin...
[20:59] Yunyun
    Do you remember what I told
    you the other day? Y'know...
[21:03] Yunyun
    About us settling things once
    I've learned advanced magic?
[21:08] Megumin
    Oh, when you were mumbling in
    the coach after I beat Arnes?
[21:13] Megumin
    What of it?
[21:15] Yunyun
    "What of it"?
[21:17] Yunyun
    How could you?!
[21:20] Yunyun
    Did that promise seriously
    just slip off your brain?!
[21:24] Yunyun
    Is your memory shot?! Have the shock waves
    from explosion magic ruined your brain?!
[21:28] Megumin
    I have no idea what you're talking about!
[21:30] Megumin
    Let's take on some quests and earn money,
[21:33] Megumin
    or we won't even be able
    to afford lodging tonight!
[21:38] Yunyun
    W-Wait, are we about to
    be stuck in the stables?
[21:43] Luna
    Megumin! Yunyun!
    I can't have you fighting in here!

[02:00] Yunyun
    Fireball!
[02:12] Yunyun
    It's 5,000 eris for each one,
    so this 15,000 total.
[02:16] Yunyun
    Two more and we'll get a bonus of 10,000...
[02:20] Megumin
    We should move on to the woods.
[02:22] Yunyun
    Already?
[02:23] Megumin
    Fighting these bottom-feeders isn't
    doing much to raise our levels.
[02:27] Megumin
    I believe we should focus on efficiency.
[02:33] Kazuma
    H-Hey there, boss man...
[02:37] Kazuma
    See you tomorrow.
[02:38] Aqua
    See you tomorrow, boss man!
[02:42] Kazuma
    Hey, you wanna look for a
    different job tomorrow?
[02:46] Kazuma
    I don't think I'm cut out for manual labor.
[02:48] Aqua
    What are you whining about now?
    This is the problem with you shut-in NEETs.
[02:51] Kazuma
    I am not.
[02:52] Aqua
    Nothing good comes of quitting
    a job you just got.
[02:54] Aqua
    Come on, let's take our pay,
    wash off in the bath,
[02:57] Aqua
    eat something yummy, and give
    it another shot tomorrow!
[03:00] Yunyun
    Megumin? Something wrong?
[03:03] Megumin
    Oh, no.
[03:09] Yun
    Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid,
    stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid!
[03:13] Yun
    How stupid do you have to be to pick a fight
[03:15] Yun
    with a huge colony like this,
    just for the payout?!
[03:17] Megumin
    Just who are you calling stupid?!
[03:19] Megumin
    Are you trying to start a fight?!
[03:20] Megumin
    Very well! Consider that challenge accepted!
[03:23] Megumin
    Duck and cover, Yunyun!
[03:26] Megumin
    Explosion!
[03:33] Host
    Hey, human. You alive?
[03:41] Host
    Looks like you're awake.
[03:43] Megumin
    Yes...
[03:55] Host
    So, I'm looking for a giant,
    ebon magic beast and—
[04:00] Host
    You... Those eyes...
[04:04] Host
    I am called Host!
[04:06] Host
    And I am not a giant goblin,
    but a high-ranked demon,
[04:10] Host
    and he who will be in the employ
    of a certain kid someday!
[04:15] Host
    How'd you like my little introduction?
[04:18] Host
    You Crimson Demons love this kinda...
[04:26] Luna
    You encountered a high-ranked
    demon in the woods?
[04:29] Yunyun
    Yes. He said he was looking for
    a giant, ebon magic beast...
[04:33] Luna
    I think I might know what he's talking about.
[04:36] Luna
    It's a very dangerous monster
    that's called a Rookie Slayer.
[04:40] Megumin
    Why would this demon be
    searching for it, though?
[04:46] Luna
    I appreciate you two sharing this with me.
[04:49] Luna
    This is a very dangerous situation...
[04:55] Yunyun
    This sure has escalated, hasn't it?
[04:59] Megumin
    We ran into him at an unfortunate time.
[05:02] Megumin
    Considering I had just spent
    all my magic power...
[05:04] Megumin
    Otherwise, I could have given
    him a rather incendiary hello!
[05:08] Yunyun
    Stop it! I don't think there's
    any beating that thing.
[05:11] Yunyun
    That demon seems like he could
    even withstand explosion magic.
[05:15] Megumin
    Should I interpret that as a challenge?
[05:18] Megumin
    Very well! Let's change our plans for
    tomorrow and head back to the woods—
[05:22] Yunyun
    No way! I am not going back to the woods!
[05:24] Yunyun
    If you want to do it, do it yourself!
[05:29] Adventurer A
    We need a priest for our group!
[05:31] Adventurer B
    Any mages around? If you can make
    potions, we could use your help!
[05:36] Wiz
    I've got some complimentary potions here.
[05:38] Adventurer C
    What a relief!
[05:41] Wiz
    Since the entire guild is getting
    involved, I wanted to help out.
[05:45] Adventurer C
    You might not do a lot of business, pretty
    lady, but your potions really hit the spot.
[05:48] Adventurer D
    If you're feeling generous, how about a date?
[05:52] Adventurer E
    Huh? All gone already?
[05:54] Wiz
    I'll head to the shop and bring some more!
[05:56] Adventurer E
    Guess we'll eat first.
[05:58] Adventurer F
    We're counting on you!
[06:00] Wiz
    I'm gonna need to buy more ingredients...
[06:02] Wiz
    Guess I'll be eating bread crusts and
    drinking sugar water for a while.
[06:06] Megumin
    Things seem quite lively!
[06:08] Yunyun
    Well, the guild wants to
    hunt this demon down...
[06:12] Yunyun
    Wait, Megumin! What are you so excited about?
[06:14] Yunyun
    You saw how scary he was!
[06:16] Yunyun
    We don't even get monsters that
    dangerous back home at the village!
[06:20] Megumin
    If you're feeling worried,
    by all means, you can wait here.
[06:24] Megumin
    They're offering a reward just
    for participating in the hunt.
[06:27] Megumin
    There's no way I'm missing an
    opportunity to get paid just for
[06:31] Megumin
    hanging around at the back of a crowd.
[06:33] Yunyun
    Well, i-if you're going,
    I can't let you do it alone...
[06:37] Megumin
    Did you say something? I'm sure you did.
[06:39] Megumin
    Go on, let's hear it a bit more loudly!
[06:42] Yunyun
    I know you heard me!
[06:44] Yunyun
    You heard me and just want me
    to say it again, don't you?!
[06:47] Megumin
    Granted, I'm not purely
    in this for the reward.
[06:52] Megumin
    Think for a second.
    A striking performance here
[06:55] Megumin
    will have people begging us to join their 
    parties, and not the other way around.
[06:59] Megumin
    We'll be fighting off offers!
[07:08] Yunyun
    Fireball!
[07:18] Rex
    Well, damn!
[07:19] Terry
    Impressive.
[07:21] Sophie
    Isn't that girl... you know, the one
[07:23] Sophie
    who's always playing cards
    in a corner of the guild?
[07:26] Megumin
    Very impressive, Yunyun.
[07:31] Adventurer Voice
    What the?!
[07:33] Adventurer Voice
    Clear a path!
[07:35] Rex
    It's him! The hero with the cursed
    sword who was taking point!
[07:39] Mitsurugi
    Let me down! I can still fight!
[07:42] Mitsurugi
    I can't give up... Not now!
[07:44] Fio
    Please, don't talk!
[07:48] Mitsurugi
    I'm not done... I can still fight!
[07:48] Rex
    A hero with a cursed sword got beat...
[07:51] Rex
    It's no good. There's no way we can do this!
[07:52] Mitsurugi
    Put me down!
[07:53] Adventurer F
    It's as strong as one of the
    Devil King's Army generals!
[07:55] Adventurer F
    Retreat!
[07:57] Adventurer E
    Retreat now! Everybody, fall back!
[07:59] Mitsurugi
    Please! Damn it!
[08:06] Luna
    I've been informed how
    the hunt went, everyone.
[08:10] Luna
    It seems this is quite the dangerous foe.
[08:13] Luna
    And the famed cursed sword adventurer
    has apparently been seriously injured.
[08:17] Rex
    The bottom line is, if he got beaten
    that badly, none of us stand a chance.
[08:22] Adventurer C
    You guys are the toughest party
    in town! Is it really that bad?
[08:26] Terry
    Well, a couple dozen from our main
    fighting force have been injured,
[08:29] Terry
    and even with the priests using
    healing magic and potions on them...
[08:33] Sophie
    It'll be a while before we can try again.
[08:35] Adventurer A
    So what now?! We just wait around
    for this thing to kill us?!
[08:39] Adventurer B
    Is there really nothing we can do?
[08:41] Luna
    I can think of one possible solution!
[08:44] Luna
    There's someone who registered
    as an adventurer recently...
[08:47] Luna
    And, apparently, Axel is now
    host to an expert exorcist
[08:51] Luna
    with the rare class of arch priest!
[08:54] Rex
    What?!
[08:55] Terry
    You mean the one said to be
    the natural enemy of all demons?
[08:58] Terry
    Wait, if they just registered,
    they'd still only be level 1, right?
[09:02] Luna
    But here's the interesting thing.
[09:04] Luna
    With a few exceptions, all of
    her stats are off the charts!
[09:08] Luna
    Not only that, but she's
    such a gifted arch priest,
[09:11] Luna
    she already knows all the class skills!
[09:13] Rex
    Are you serious?
[09:14] Sophie
    She may even be able to beat that demon...
[09:17] Luna
    The only problem is, I haven't
    seen her around the guild lately.
[09:20] Luna
    I think she's still in town, but...
[09:22] Rex
    Hey, what's she look like?!
[09:24] Rex
    We've gotta find this arch priest,
    so give us a description!
[09:28] Luna
    She has striking blue hair...
[09:31] Luna
    and beauty akin to a goddess!
[09:42] Yunyun
    They all ran off, huh?
[09:44] Yunyun
    What do you think?
    Should we look for her, too?
[09:47] Megumin
    They seem desperate enough
    to find her in short order.
[09:51] Megumin
    I'm feeling exhausted, for some reason...
[09:53] Yunyun
    Really?
[09:55] Yunyun
    I think I'll stick around a bit longer.
[09:58] Megumin
    Oh, I see. Waiting to be scouted
    by another party, is that it?
[10:02] Yunyun
    That's not it, I swear!
[10:04] Megumin
    Sure, sure, just don't stay
    out too late tonight.
[10:07] Yunyun
    Got it! Don't worry, I'll be back before dawn.
[10:11] Megumin
    Sooner than that, please!
[10:14] Adventurer (30s)
    Find the blue-haired goddess!
[10:19] Aqua
    Hey!
[10:21] Aqua
    Would you pay attention?! Thanks to you,
[10:25] Aqua
    I dropped my pay, and now that's
    10,000 eris all over the ground!
[10:28] Aqua
    Hurry and pick it up already!
[10:30] Aqua
    And if I find any missing,
    you'll be making up the difference!
[10:33] Adventurer L
    L-Look, I'm sorry.
[10:35] Adventurer L
    But that definitely doesn't
    look like a whole 10,000 eris.
[10:39] Adventurer L
    Wait, your hair...
[10:41] Aqua
    What?! You got a problem?
[10:44] Adventurer L
    It couldn't be...
[10:46] Adventurer L
    She's kinda shabby-looking, too...
[10:48] Adventurer L
    And I doubt high-ranked clergy
    would try to scam someone like this.
[10:52] Aqua
    You say something?!
[10:53] Adventurer L
    No! And anyway, I'm in a hurry!
[10:55] Adventurer L
    You can have this, so let me go!
[10:59] Aqua
    Awesome! I really used my head this time!
[11:02] Aqua
    Come on, help me pick up the
    cash that's on the ground!
[11:06] Aqua
    Wait, why are you crying?
[11:08] Kazuma
    It's just... you're a such a...
[11:13] Megumin
    No. There's no way that's her.
[11:23] Cecily
    Welcome home, Megumin!
[11:26] Cecily
    Would you like to take a bath? Or take me?
[11:28] Cecily
    Or take the Axis Sect into your life?
[11:36] Megumin
    There are a lot of questions
    I could ask you, miss...
[11:39] Cecily
    It's Cecily!
[11:40] Cecily
    I think it's time we consider
    moving our relationship
[11:42] Cecily
    to the stage where we
    call each other by name.
[11:45] Megumin
    What are you doing here, miss?
[11:47] Cecily
    It's Cecily!
[11:49] Cecily
    And, well, that's a bit of a long story...
[11:53] Cecily
    Explaining would be a drag, so let's just
    say it was Divine Aqua's providence.
[11:57] Megumin
    That's no explanation at all.
[11:59] Megumin
    And how did you even get in
    here when it was locked?
[12:03] Cecily
    To be honest... I'm in need
    of your help, Megumin.
[12:08] Megumin
    I hope you don't think you can fool
    me by acting serious all of a sudden.
[12:11] Cecily
    Father Zesta heard the
    goddess Aqua's holy voice.
[12:16] Cecily
    "My name is Aqua."
[12:18] Cecily
    "Yes, the patron deity of the
    Axis Order, Aqua the goddess!"
[12:23] Cecily
    "And if you believe in me..."
[12:25] Cecily
    "I'd appreciate it if I could
    borrow some money!"
[12:28] Cecily
    ...it said.
[12:29] Megumin
    Well, every bit of that sounds suspicious.
[12:32] Cecily
    Not only that, but he heard the
    voice from right here in Axel.
[12:36] Cecily
    And so, the Axis Order's beautiful priest
[12:39] Cecily
    was dispatched to investigate
    the source of this oracle.
[12:44] Megumin
    Your sect really must have
    nothing better to do.
[12:49] Cecily
    But after coming here, I think I understand
    part of what the oracle was about.
[12:54] Cecily
    I hear this place is being threatened
    by the enemies of our order—a demon.
[12:59] Cecily
    So I've come to interpret the oracle
[13:02] Cecily
    as orders for me to use the
    order's funds to hire people
[13:05] Cecily
    so that they can kill the demon
    who has appeared in this town.
[13:09] Megumin
    That seems like a very
    liberal interpretation.
[13:12] Megumin
    And could you move, please?
[13:15] Megumin
    This is my room, and that's my bed—
[13:19] Cecily
    The first thing that came to mind
    after getting to town was...
[13:23] Cecily
    the help of one who'd been our ally before...
[13:26] Cecily
    and that's you, Megumin.
[13:28] Megumin
    Whatever! I don't care anymore!
    Just get out of there, now!
[13:31] Cecily
    There are so few Axis faithful in town!
[13:34] Cecily
    The local church is barely functioning,
[13:36] Cecily
    so I can't afford to hire anyone else!
[13:38] Megumin
    I don't care! I sincerely don't care!
[13:41] Megumin
    And I would rather have nothing
    to do with you people ever again!
[13:44] Megumin
    And for pity's sake,
    stop trying to sniff my sheets!
[13:47] Megumin
    Stop panting!
[13:49] Cecily
    I have 5,000,000 for you
[13:52] Cecily
    if you'll help me find the arch priest
    that's supposed to live here.
[13:59] Cecily
    And if we slay the demon,
    I'll make it 10,000,000.
[14:04] Megumin
    I'm in.
[14:08] Adventurer 3E
    Hey, any luck? You find her?
[14:10] Adventurer 4H
    Nothing! Although I did see a drunk
    street performer with blue hair.
[14:15] Adventurer 4H
    Damn it, where did that amazing
    blue-haired arch priest get to?
[14:20] Megumin
    Do you really think it's
    likely we'll find someone
[14:24] Megumin
    that they've already scoured the town for?
[14:28] Megumin
    We're dealing with an arch priest.
    Could she be praying in a church?
[14:33] Megumin
    Or maybe she's at a public cemetery,
    helping lost souls find rest?
[14:39] Cecily
    If it were me...
[14:41] Cecily
    First, I'd rush the public bath so
    that I can get in before anyone else,
[14:44] Cecily
    then munch on some fried frogs
    washed down with crimson beer,
[14:49] Cecily
    then get into a brawl with the drunks who
[14:50] Cecily
    lash my luscious body
    with their lascivious looks,
[14:53] Cecily
    and finally toss rocks at the local
    Eris church, and go home satisfied!
[14:57] Megumin
    I was a fool to even ask you.
[15:00] Cecily
    Come on, Megumin!
[15:02] Cecily
    We can search tomorrow! Tonight,
    let's hit the baths together!
[15:06] Cecily
    We can wash each other!
[15:08] Megumin
    I can go home if you don't intend to find her.
[15:11] Cecily
    What is this?
[15:13] Megumin
    I thought it was extremely unlikely
    that such a powerful arch priest
[15:17] Megumin
    would be a member of the Axis sect,
    so visiting an Eris church might be—
[15:20] Cecily
    Open the hell up!
[15:22] Cecily
    We know you're hiding this arch priest
    that can take care of this demon hunt!
[15:26] Cecily
    Open the damn door unless
    you want it kicked in!
[15:29] Eris Order Voice
    There's no one like that there!
[15:31] Eris Order Voice
    This church reserves the right to bar
    members of the Axis sect from entering!
[15:34] Eris Order Voice
    Please leave, now!
[15:37] Cecily
    Megumin, you're up. Go ahead and
    obliterate this church, please.
[15:42] Megumin
    I will do no such thing!
[15:45] Megumin
    This is already annoying enough. Please
    don't make it any more complicated...
[15:54] Cecily
    Strike!
SIGN    KONOSUBA - An Explosion on This Wonderful World!
[15:57] Cecily
    Out!
[15:58] Megumin
    Are you insane?! What in the world
    motivated you to do such a thing?!
[16:03] Cecily
    To be honest, it is a little odd!
[16:05] Cecily
    I've been feeling weirdly
    excited ever since I got here!
[16:08] Cecily
    Maybe it's a blessing
    from holy Aqua herself?
[16:11] Megumin
    If that's her idea of a blessing,
[16:13] Megumin
    then if I ever encounter this goddess Aqua,
    the first thing I do will be to attack her.
[16:32] Megumin
    Wh-What is it?!
[16:36] Cecily
    Megumin, you seriously screamed, "Hwah!"
[16:39] Cecily
    How absolutely adorable!
[16:41] Cecily
    Okay, okay, I'm sorry! I won't do it again!
[16:51] Megumin
    Shall we turn around on three?
[16:53] Cecily
    Sounds good. We'll turn
    around at the same time,
[16:56] Cecily
    and if there's anything there,
    we fight it together.
[16:58] Cecily
    Okay?
[16:59] Megumin
    Understood.
[17:01] Both
    One, two...
[17:03] Cecily
    Hey! This isn't what we agreed on!
[17:05] Megumin
    I should be saying that!
[17:07] Cecily
    I am technically your boss
    on this outing, you realize!
[17:10] Megumin
    I haven't been paid yet!
[17:12] Megumin
    And I'm helping you find someone,
    not acting as your bodyguard!
[17:20] Wiz
    Things sure have gotten pretty
    lively around Axel lately.
[17:38] Megumin
    Yunyun...
[17:44] Yunyun
    Thanks. You're trying to
    cheer me up, aren't you?
[17:56] Yunyun
    I thought about going home, of course!
[17:58] Yunyun
    It's just, then I thought,
[18:00] Yunyun
    "What if someone shows up to ask
    me to join them after I've left?"
[18:05] Yunyun
    And then I couldn't leave!
[18:09] Yunyun
    You seem really tired too, Megumin.
[18:12] Megumin
    I've just been rather busy...
[18:14] Rex
    Hey there, Crimson Demon gals.
[18:17] Rex
    You two are arch wizards, right?
[18:19] Megumin
    Yes, we are. Can I help you?
[18:21] Rex
    My name is Rex, and we've cooked
    up a pretty great plan.
[18:26] Rex
    But we're gonna need some
    spell casters to pull it off.
[18:31] Rex
    So, would you like to work with us?
[18:39] Yunyun
    Sleep!
[18:51] Rex
    That was really impressive, Yunyun!
[18:54] Rex
    How about it? You wanna join our party?
[18:58] Yunyun
    You want me?
[19:00] Rex
    Well, we can discuss it
    in detail back at town.
[19:03] Rex
    First, let's drag this thing
    back and celebrate!
[19:06] Yunyun
    O-Okay!
[19:08] Rex
    Since the demon is looking for a black
    magic beast, it's gotta be this thing.
[19:14] Sophie
    Once it's caged up, maybe the demon
    will approach us to negotiate.
[19:18] Megumin
    Something... seems off about this.
[19:23] Host
    There you are!
[19:27] Host
    What the hell did you punks
    do to Lady Wolbach?!
[19:36] Host
    Lady Wolbach!
[19:39] Yunyun
    H-Hey, Megumin! Aren't we in
    serious trouble right now?!
[19:42] Megumin
    Shh! Let's evaluate the situation
    while slowly getting some distance.
[19:46] Host
    Whoa, now, this is just a Rookie Slayer.
[19:51] Host
    Hey, you two!
[19:53] Host
    I rushed here because I caught the
    familiar scent of Lady Wolbach...
[19:58] Host
    So how come I can smell it on you two?
[20:01] Megumin
    I'm certain now. This demon is
    after my familiar, Chomusuke!
[20:07] Host
    Seems to be particularly strong on you, too.
[20:12] Host
    Well? Care to explain?
[20:15] Host
    Come to think of it, you're the Crimson
    Demons I saw in the forest, right?
[20:20] Host
    There's no way that you
    don't know Lady Wolbach.
[20:26] Megumin
    Wh-Why do you all seem to call my
    Chomusuke this bizarre name, "Wolbach"?
[20:31] Megumin
    I'm sure you've got the wrong cat!
[20:33] Megumin
    If you'd like, I can get you
    another cute black kitten!
[20:37] Megumin
    So, please, stop harassing my Chomusuke!
[20:40] Host
    Chomusuke? What's that supposed to be?
[20:42] Host
    Actually, I've heard the name before...
[20:45] Host
    I think the shrimp mentioned it.
[20:48] Host
    Come to think of it,
    you kinda look like her...
[20:51] Megumin
    What shrimp?
[20:52] Host
    I don't wanna get into a beef
    with any Crimson Demons.
[20:56] Host
    Think of it as a deal. You hand Lady
    Wolbach over, and I won't harm you.
[21:02] Host
    Or the town, for that matter.
[21:04] Yunyun
    You expect us to believe a demon?!
[21:07] Host
    Demons always deliver on a deal.
[21:10] Host
    They're absolute for us,
    and totally unbreakable.
[21:13] Host
    So, what's it gonna be?
[21:26] Yunyun
    What do we do? Make a deal with that demon?
[21:31] Megumin
    I'm not sure yet.
[21:33] Megumin
    But if handing the furball over actually
    resolves this, it might be a good idea.
[21:38] Yunyun
    You can't believe what that demon says!
[21:41] Yunyun
    Besides, I know they say
    this town is for beginners,
[21:45] Yunyun
    but there are plenty of proper adventurers.
[21:47] Yunyun
    I'm sure someone...

    And with that being the case, the demon
    in question defeated all three of them.
[00:08] Guild
    What now?!
[00:11] Unmarked AD
    What are we gonna do?!
[00:13] Unmarked AD
    Crap... Oh, crap!
[00:15] Megumin
    Our best option would then be...
[00:21] Yunyun
    I am not letting you hand Chomusuke over!
    That is off the table!
[00:25] Yunyun
    I'm way too attached to her at this point!
[00:29] Megumin
    I never said a word about
    agreeing to the deal.
[00:34] Megumin
    Do I really seem the type to
    acquiesce when threatened?
[00:39] Megumin
    Crimson Demons accept
    any and all challenges.
[00:43] Yunyun
    Well, I know you're just shy
    of actually being stupid,
[00:46] Yunyun
    so you must know what kind
    of enemy you're facing here.
[00:48] Megumin
    That was quite a barbed way of putting it.
[00:51] Megumin
    Regardless, with the arch priest in
    question having never been found,
[00:55] Megumin
    I would say that I'm the only one in town
    with the means to deal with this demon.
[01:00] Yunyun
    Fine, do what you want.
[01:09] Megumin
    We're... friends, aren't we?
[01:17] Yunyun
    You want my help?!
[01:18] Yunyun
    If you think I'll do as you ask just because
    you say we're friends, you're dead wrong!
[01:22] Yunyun
    And yet I can't deny hearing
    that made me kinda happy!
SIGN    Episode 12: An Explosion on This Wonderful World!
[01:38] Megumin
    I thought I said you were free
    to occupy yourself for a while.
[01:41] Yunyun
    Well, you went into the inn
    after mentioning you were going
[01:44] Yunyun
    to get funds for your plan, so I was worried.
[01:48] Megumin
    I have 10,000,000 eris here.
[01:49] Yunyun
    How in the world did you
    make that kind of money?!
[01:53] Yunyun
    What happened in there?!
[01:56] Megumin
    I'd rather not say.
[01:58] Yunyun
    Megumin! You've really crossed a line!
[02:01] Megumin
    More importantly,
[02:02] Megumin
    we need to put this war chest to use
    and raise our combat efficacy.
[02:06] Megumin
    Head to the magic item store,
    and buy anything that looks useful.
[02:11] Yunyun
    O-Okay.
[02:13] Megumin
    Also, we'll need a stuffed black cat toy.
    Make sure to buy one.
[02:17] Yunyun
    A stuffed toy?
[02:23] Megumin
    These were all made in the
    Crimson Demon village.
[02:27] Megumin
    Oh, excellent work!
[02:28] Megumin
    This is a Scroll of Concealment!
[02:31] Megumin
    It should make things simple,
    even without front line fighter allies.
[02:35] Yunyun
    There's also...
[02:37] Yunyun
    The stuffed black cat you asked for.
[02:40] Yunyun
    I don't know what you have
    in mind for it, but...
[02:44] Yunyun
    Hey!
[02:45] Megumin
    And now, with a little bit of time,
[02:48] Megumin
    Chomusuke's scent will rub
    off on the stuffed cat.
[02:51] Megumin
    We'll use it as bait,
    conceal ourselves with the scroll,
[02:55] Megumin
    and once he arrives in
    his ignorance, ka-boom.
[02:58] Yunyun
    D-Do you really think this plan's gonna work?
[03:02] Megumin
    We'll have to make it work.
[03:04] Megumin
    You're not the only one who's grown
    attached to this impudent little furball.
[03:10] Megumin
    Besides, we may have only
    worked together briefly,
[03:13] Megumin
    but this village is full of people
    I've gone on adventures with.
[03:16] Megumin
    And since fuzzy here and I are
    responsible for this matter,
[03:23] Megumin
    I intend to see it resolved in full.
[03:28] Yunyun
    Recklessly and stubbornly
    acting tough, like always.
[03:31] Megumin
    Pipe down.
[03:33] Megumin
    It's not like you've changed your timid,
    conflict-averse tendencies, either.
[03:39] Yunyun
    What has changed is that she's become a lot
    less selfish and indifferent in the last year.
[03:57] Megumin
    I'm feeling far too awake to sleep.
[04:00] Megumin
    I can't believe I'm actually
    nervous before a battle...
[04:06] Megumin
    I forgot to fire off my
    daily explosion magic!
[04:08] Megumin
    That explains this unease!
    How could I have been so careless?!
[04:11] Yunyun
    Unlock.
[04:23] Megumin
    Who would come by so late?
[04:26] Megumin
    What pervert is this?
[04:29] Yunyun
    You're asleep, right, Megumin?
[04:39] Yunyun
    You're really amazing, you know.
[04:41] Yunyun
    It never even occurred to you to
    run from a scary demon like that.
[04:45] Yunyun
    I think I'd be too anxious
    to sleep if I were you.
[04:49] Megumin
    This is making it far too awkward
    to pretend to wake up now.
[04:53] Yunyun
    If I'm being honest...
[04:55] Yunyun
    When you learned explosion magic,
[04:57] Yunyun
    I had to wonder how the top of our
    class could do something so stupid.
[05:02] Yunyun
    And when I saw you helping with the Axis
    sect's ridiculous recruiting in Arcanretia...
[05:09] Yunyun
    Wow. I was just speechless.
[05:12] Yunyun
    But...
[05:14] Yunyun
    But with just the joke
    they call explosion magic,
[05:17] Yunyun
    you were able to slay the Devil
    King's minions and defeat Arnes,
[05:21] Yunyun
    and now you're about to take on this demon.
[05:28] Yunyun
    I think that's really cool, and incredible.
[05:38] Yunyun
    But I'm sure you know the truth.
[05:40] Yunyun
    Even with a Scroll of Concealment,
    when you start to cast explosion magic,
[05:44] Yunyun
    the flow of magic power will
    make your position obvious.
[05:47] Megumin
    I didn't think that far ahead...
    and I don't dare admit that.
[05:51] Yunyun
    Which is why, y'know... to make
    sure I can continue being your rival,
[05:56] Yunyun
    I'm going to borrow this.
[06:00] Yunyun
    To be honest, I was at the guild before now,
[06:04] Yunyun
    and for the first time, I asked
    people to form a party with me.
[06:09] Yunyun
    Rex and his friends.
[06:10] Yunyun
    When I asked them if they wanted revenge
    on the demon, they were happy to agree.
[06:16] Megumin
    Weren't they badly injured?
[06:19] Yunyun
    I would've been too afraid
    to try anything by myself.
[06:24] Yunyun
    But now, I'm sure...
[06:26] Yunyun
    I can't let you try this plan
    when I know it won't work.
[06:32] Yunyun
    Because you're my best
    friend in the whole world.
[06:37] Yunyun
    And that's why...
[06:38] Yunyun
    Sleep.
[06:48] Yunyun
    Megumin...
[06:51] Yunyun
    I'm sorry.
[06:58] Megumin
    Yunyun!
[07:06] Megumin
    How dare she entrap me like this?!
[07:09] Megumin
    There is no greater shame for a Crimson
    Demon than to have their spotlight stolen!
[07:14] Megumin
    Well, this simply will not stand!
[07:17] Megumin
    Miss?!
[07:19] Megumin
    Sorry, I have a bit of an emergency
    situation, and was in a rush.
[07:21] Megumin
    Some other time, maybe.
[07:23] Cecily
    What in the world happened?
    You look so worried.
[07:26] Megumin
    Well, I'm not sure how, but Yunyun has
    apparently found a party out of the blue...
[07:31] Cecily
    Oh, would that be the group
    with that Rex fellow?
[07:34] Megumin
    Huh? Yes. How did you know?
[07:37] Cecily
    Because I healed them!
[07:41] Megumin
    Huh?
[07:41] Cecily
    I said I healed them! They were in front
    of the church, and obviously in pain.
[07:47] Cecily
    You should have seen how jealous
    the Eris sect was when I did it!
[07:50] Megumin
    You're responsible for this
    annoying turn of events?!
[07:53] Megumin
    I don't have time for this! I need to go!
[07:57] Megumin
    Miss, I genuinely do not have
    time to fool around right now...
[08:04] Cecily
    May the divine Aqua offer her protection.
[08:08] Cecily
    Blessing.
[08:16] Cecily
    I barely remember the incantations for
    anything other than healing magic.
[08:19] Cecily
    I'm glad it actually worked.
[08:22] Cecily
    I am a holy woman, in spite of it all.
[08:25] Cecily
    And I think I've got a
    good eye for people, too.
[08:28] Cecily
    Don't worry. I know you can win.
[08:30] Cecily
    I mean, how could my adorable,
    helpful Megumin lose to some rotten devil?
[08:36] Megumin
    Miss...
[08:38] Cecily
    Just this once, it'd be nice
    if you'd call me "big sister"!
[08:44] Megumin
    Well, then, Big Sister Cecily...
[08:47] Megumin
    I'm off!
[08:51] Cecily
    Good luck!
[09:07] Rex
    We'll keep him occupied somehow.
[09:09] Rex
    You hit him with that magic from before!
[09:11] Yunyun
    U-Understood!
[09:12] Host
    Aw, damn it, what the hell?
[09:15] Host
    You twerps are starting to get on my nerves!
[09:23] Yunyun
    I have to do it! I have to pull this off!
[09:25] Host
    Time to die! Inferno!
[09:29] Yunyun
    Magic Canceler!
[09:35] Yunyun
    Blade of Wind!
[09:43] Rex
    That worked! Keep it up!
[09:45] Yunyun
    Right!
[09:49] Megumin
    Well, this is a surprise...
    They're holding their own.
[09:53] Megumin
    It'd be one thing if they were in danger,
[09:55] Megumin
    but crashing the party when the battle
    might be won isn't to my liking.
[10:00] Yunyun
    Lightning!
[10:06] Host
    I am getting fed up over here.
[10:08] Host
    This is why I didn't want to
    mess with Crimson Demons!
[10:12] Host
    Damn it, enough's enough.
    Time to wrap this up the hard way!
[10:18] Yunyun
    Everyone, it's time!
[10:19] Host
    Another little trick?
[10:22] Host
    Let's see what you've got!
[10:25] Yunyun
    Flash!
[10:29] Host
    Demons don't see with their eyes, girlie!
[10:32] Host
    This trick of yours isn't gonna do squat!
[10:36] Megumin
    My eyes! My eyes!
[10:42] Rex
    Damn it, that didn't work. Even though
    I know I heard a tiny scream...
[10:48] Host
    Looks like that leaves just the two of you.
[10:52] Host
    Any more tricks up your sleeve?
[10:58] Rex
    Host!
[11:09] Host
    You think this is gonna buy you time?
[11:14] Yunyun
    Paralyze!
[11:18] Host
    I figured a Crimson Demon would know better!
[11:22] Host
    Paralyze isn't gonna work on a dem—
[11:25] Yunyun
    I'm well aware that paralysis
    magic doesn't work on demons.
[11:28] Yunyun
    But this magic potion was to
    increase the power of my spell.
[11:32] Yunyun
    Granted, it was a gamble on whether
    or not it'd actually work!
[11:38] Host
    You actually managed to restrain me...
[11:40] Host
    That must've been one
    hell of a magic potion.
[11:43] Host
    But I bet it took a big chunk
    of your magic power, huh?
[11:48] Host
    Paralyze only lasts for
    a few minutes at max.
[11:51] Host
    You really think you can finish
    me off with what you've got left?
[11:55] Host
    That's why I'll make you an offer.
[11:58] Host
    How about we both give it a rest for today?
[12:01] Host
    I'm sure you wanna heal your
    buddies on the ground over there.
[12:05] Host
    If you agree, I promise not to lay
    a claw on any of you for today.
[12:12] Host
    You know that demons don't ever break
    promises or bargains, don't you?
[12:20] Yunyun
    I-I'm willing to consider your offer.
[12:23] Yunyun
    We can both take our leave for today.
[12:27] Rex
    Hey, wait!
[12:28] Terry
    Yunyun, don't worry about us!
[12:32] Sophie
    We'll be fine.
[12:34] Sophie
    Just hurry and finish him off!
[12:37] Yunyun
    I-It's not that... s-see,
    the th-th-thing is...
[12:42] Host
    Wait, hang on a sec. Girl, did you...
[12:46] Host
    Don't tell me...
[12:48] Host
    You can't move either, can you?
[12:57] Host
    You Crimson Demons might be a pain to
    deal with, but I like you all the same!
[13:01] Host
    What kind of goofy spell-casting
    makes Paralyze affect the caster?!
[13:05] Yunyun
    I don't know either, okay?!
[13:08] (Flashback) Wiz
    This potion is guaranteed to increase the
    strength and affected area for Paralyze!
[13:15] Yunyun
    And then the pretty lady sold
    it to me at a great price!
[13:20] Host
    Oh, what a riot.
[13:22] Host
    So, now what? Since you gave me a real laugh,
[13:26] Host
    I'm still willing to let you off
    if you wanna make a deal.
[13:31] Yunyun
    A-Are you trying to pick a fight with me?!
[13:34] Yunyun
    C-Crimson Demons always
    accept a-all challenges!
[13:38] Megumin
    So, it seems none of you can move!
[13:49] Host
    You!
[13:50] Megumin
    Greetings. I happen to be a sorceress
    supreme who was just passing through.
[13:53] Megumin
    It seems you've all had quite the
    little encounter in my absence.
[13:58] Yunyun
    Megumin...
[14:00] Megumin
    Last night, when I was about to get up
[14:02] Megumin
    after realizing I had not performed
    my daily explosion magic,
[14:06] Megumin
    an unknown assailant cast
    Sleep magic on me...
[14:08] Yunyun
    Wait, y-you were awake?!
[14:10] Yunyun
    Hang on, you were awake back then?!
[14:12] Megumin
    And now, with an overflowing amount of
    magic power carried over from yesterday,
[14:17] Megumin
    who should I happen upon in
    my search for a good target?!
[14:24] Host
    Whoa! Your eyes!
[14:26] Host
    H-Hang on a sec! I get it, I do.
    Let's all just calm down...
[14:29] Yunyun
    I-If you were awake,
    you should have said something!
[14:33] Yunyun
    I would've cast Sleep the second
    I came into the room!
[14:36] Yunyun
    When did you wake up?!
    How much did you hear?!
[14:38] Megumin
    Well, if you're curious, around the time you
    unlocked the door to my room with magic,
[14:43] Megumin
    and asked, "You're asleep, right, Megumin?"
[14:46] Yunyun
    No!
[14:48] Megumin
    Now, then, am I to understand
    you've harmed my amusing comrade
[14:52] Megumin
    who was silly enough to monologue
    at someone who was wide awake,
[14:55] Megumin
    and then cast Paralyze on herself?
[14:57] Yunyun
    No! No more! Please stop!
[14:59] Yunyun
    I apologize, so stop!
    I'm sorry, so please, no more!
[15:02] Megumin
    Now, she may be the
    embarrassing type who says,
[15:05] Megumin
    "I think you're really cool and incredible,
    Megumin," when she thinks no one is listening...
[15:10] Yunyun
    No!
[15:12] Megumin
    And, "You're my best friend
    in the whole world."
[15:16] Megumin
    But after hearing all that...
[15:20] Megumin
    I can hardly ignore her suffering, can I?!
[15:23] Yunyun
    Kill me!
[15:25] Yunyun
    I can't move, so I can't run or do it myself!
    End my suffering now, please!
[15:28] Yunyun
    I can't go on living like this!
    I'd be better off dead!
[15:31] Rex
    Hey! How long are you going to goof around?!
[15:37] Rex
    What the...
[15:38] Megumin
    I am going to fire my great spell.
[15:42] Megumin
    The same instant victory magic that
    defeated your comrade, Arnes!
[15:46] Host
    Huh, you're the one who did her in?
[15:50] Host
    Well, seeing the kind of
    magic power you're packing,
[15:52] Host
    it makes sense that she couldn't survive it.
[16:00] Megumin
    The sparks of genesis.
    The embers of oblivion.
[16:05] Megumin
    Past, present, and future, a forbidden
    force that subsumes all creation.
[16:09] Megumin
    Flame, I am become destruction,
    without mercy.
[16:11] Host
    This is not my day, man.
[16:11] Megumin
    By my blood, by my flesh, the commandments
    set by the gods are now shattered!
[16:13] Host
    I probably could've survived this
    if I was at full strength, y'know.
[16:17] Host
    But I had a run-in with
    those weirdos yesterday...
[16:21] Host
    The stupidly durable Crusader
    and the thief in the shorts.
[16:24] Host
    And then, when I was gonna attack
    the town to let off some steam,
[16:27] Host
    that weird broad who was doing
    maintenance on the walls
[16:30] Host
    blasts me with some seriously
    nasty evil-banishing magic...
[16:35] Megumin
    Explosion!
[16:39] Host
    I guess this is one life wasted.
[16:43] Host
    What a mess. If I don't
    turn things around soon,
[16:46] Host
    that little kid's gonna actually gonna
    end up summoning me as her familiar...
[17:11] Cecily
    I knew it! I had absolute
    faith in you, Megumin!
[17:15] Cecily
    Your big sister knew you were gonna win!
[17:18] Megumin
    Miss, this is actually very uncomfortable,
    so please put me down...
[17:25] Cecily
    Aw, I know you're just playing hard-to-get!
[17:27] Cecily
    Now, then.
[17:29] Cecily
    I hate to say goodbye, but...
[17:31] Megumin
    Are you headed back to Arcanretia?
[17:34] Cecily
    No. I'm going on a journey.
[17:37] Cecily
    This experience taught me something.
[17:40] Cecily
    Healing magic by itself isn't enough.
[17:42] Cecily
    When I cast Bless on Megumin, like a
    proper priest should, it occurred to me...
[17:49] Cecily
    Wouldn't it be better
[17:50] Cecily
    if I wasn't just "beautiful,"
    but "the beautiful, skilled priest"?
[17:54] Megumin
    I hardly see how that matters at all.
[17:57] Cecily
    Besides, once I hit a certain level,
[17:59] Cecily
    I'll be eligible to take over the
    local church of any town I want!
[18:04] Megumin
    Miss, are you... plotting to take over this town?
[18:09] Cecily
    That's a secret!
[18:11] Megumin/Yunyun
    Sure seems like she is.
[18:16] Cecily
    Goodbye!
[18:19] Cecily
    Take care!
[18:21] Cecily
    Call me "big sister" one last time, maybe?!
[18:27] Yunyun
    Hey, Megumin...
[18:30] Yunyun
    Would you come with me for a sec?
[18:44] Yunyun
    My nemesis, and most renowned
    of Crimson Demons, Megumin!
[18:51] Yunyun
    I... I am called Yunyun!
[18:54] Yunyun
    Arch wizard, and wielder
    of intermediate magic!
[18:57] Yunyun
    She who will one day be chief
    of the Crimson Demons!
[19:00] Yunyun
    I intend to go on a journey.
[19:02] Yunyun
    Yes, a journey to master advanced magic,
    so that I might defeat you, my rival!
[19:08] Megumin
    But the other day, I wasn't your rival,
[19:11] Megumin
    but your "best friend in the whole world."
[19:14] Yunyun
    I'm not listening! I'm not listening!
[19:16] Megumin
    Don't tell me that after that
    embarrassing little confession,
[19:19] Megumin
    you plan on getting out of
    town until things calm down?
[19:22] Yunyun
    I know what you're thinking,
    but no, I'm not that stupid!
[19:25] Yunyun
    I mean, i-it's only gonna
    be for a while, so...
[19:30] Yunyun
    A-Anyway,
[19:32] Yunyun
    I hate to admit it, but you did
    end up beating that demon.
[19:36] Yunyun
    So I have to admit that, as I
    am now, I just can't beat you.
[19:40] Yunyun
    And if I stay with you, I doubt
    I'll be able to surpass you.
[19:44] Megumin
    I think that won't change even if you leave,
[19:47] Megumin
    considering I've got a nearly
    perfect record of beating you.
[19:50] Yunyun
    O-Oh, pipe down! I'm trying to be
    serious here, so don't butt in!
[19:54] Yunyun
    Anyway, what do you say?
[19:56] Yunyun
    After I learn advanced magic,
    do you want to settle things?
[20:01] Megumin
    By all means.
[20:02] Megumin
    When that happens, let's see who's truly
    greater, with no tricks or schemes.
[21:32] Adventurer A
    We have three more spots for
    front-line classes over here!
[21:36] Adventurer B
    Any priests around?
[21:37] Adventurer B
    The job's a goblin hunt,
    and it pays pretty well.
[21:40] Adventurer B
    We're looking for one more member!
[21:44] Megumin
    Stare...
[21:48] Adventurer A
    I think our spots just got filled!
[21:53] Megumin
    I shouldn't have tried to look cool by
    handing my remaining funds to Yunyun.
[22:00] Megumin
    No, that's not it.
[22:01] Megumin
    I was so sure that there'd be
    parties fighting to recruit me.
[22:07] Megumin
    "Immediate opening!
    We're a cozy, harmonious party."
[22:11] Megumin
    "I've been happy every day
    since I joined this party."
[22:13] Megumin
    "I got over my illness and became popular."
[22:16] Megumin
    What in the world is this?
    It definitely gives me a bad feeling...
[22:21] Megumin
    "Advanced job classes only"?
    I wonder what kind of party they are.
[22:27] Kazuma
    Hey, let's lower the bar a little.
[22:30] Kazuma
    Recruiting only members in
    advanced classes is way too strict.
[22:34] Aqua
    But... But...
[22:41] Kazuma
    At this rate, not a single person will come.
[22:44] Kazuma
    I mean, you might have an advanced class,
    but I'm still in the weakest.
[22:49] Kazuma
    I'll feel ashamed if I'm completely
    surrounded by the elite.
[22:52] Megumin
    I happened to notice your
    recruitment poster.
[22:58] Megumin
    That we would meet is a fate
    chosen by the world itself.
[23:01] Megumin
    I have anxiously awaited the arrival
    of those such as yourselves.
[23:10] Megumin
    I am called Megumin!
[23:12] Megumin
    My calling is that of an arch wizard,
[23:14] Megumin
    and one who controls explosion magic,
    the strongest of all offensive magic!
[23:20] Narrator
    This is the story of the girl known to
    some as a mage of exceptional quality,
[23:24] Narrator
    but more commonly known as a deranged
    user of explosion magic, and her companions.
[23:32] Narrator
    A grand new adventure is about to begin!
