[00:14] Yunyun
    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.

[02:34] Yunyun
    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
    fighting over a female by racing!
[02:56] Megumin
    Let's see which one comes out on top!
[02:57] Yunyun
    Come on, switch with me!
[02:59] Yunyun
    Come on, come on, come on, come on,
    switch, please! I wanna see, too!
[03:02] Megumin
    Would you please control yourself?!
[03:04] Girl
    Miss, would you like to switch seats with me?

[03:17] Girls's mother
    Are you two headed for Axel?
[03:19] Yunyun
    Y-Yes.
[03:20] Girl's mother
    If that's where you're going, I take
    it you both want to be adventurers?
[03:25] Megumin
    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,
    and use really amazing magic!
[04:25] Girl
    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!
[04:42] Yunyun
    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.
[05:54] Adventurer 3J
    As long as you don't get swallowed whole—
[05:59] Megumin
    Nightfall that foretells the final
    twilight of all creation...
[06:04] Megumin
    Let the imprisonment of annihilation—
[06:05] Yunyun
    H-Hang on!
[06:07] Yunyun
    I get how you feel, I really do,
[06:09] Yunyun
    but you'll hit everyone else, too!
[06:11] Megumin
    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!
[06:21] Yunyun
    Fireball!
[06:26] Adventurer 3A
    With a single attack? Damn!
[06:29] Adventurer 3A
    This should be easy!
[06:31] Adventurer 3A
    There are lots more left,
    so we're counting on you!
[06:42] Megumin
    M-M-M-Monsters like this are no match
    for a sorcerer of my caliber!
[06:48] Megumin
    Guess I'll go protect the coach...
[06:52] Yunyun
    Can't a sorcerer of your caliber
    do something about this?!
[06:55] Yunyun
    Ew! There are so many!
[06:57] Yunyun
    Come on, Megumin!
    Please, Megumin! Don't leave—
[07:10] Adventurer 3A
    Now that was a performance
    worthy of a Crimson Demon.
[07:12] Adventurer 3J
    Tell me about it.
[07:14] Yunyun
    N-No, it wasn't anything special...
[07:15] Owner
    You've been a genuine
    lifesaver, Miss Yunyun.
[07:19] Owner
    I'd love to thank you once we reach Axel.
[07:22] Yunyun
    I-I didn't do that much...
[07:25] Owner
    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
[07:40] Adventurer 3J
    among the Crimson Demons!
[07:45] Girl
    Are you okay, miss? Were you hurt?
[07:48] Megumin
    Oh, no.
[07:50] Girl
    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!
[08:05] Girl
    I can't wait to see that!
[08:23] Megumin
    What are you doing?
[08:25] Yunyun
    Megumin.
[08:26] Yunyun
    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...
[09:04] Yunyun
    I feel a little more confident.
[09:14] Yunyun
    I wanted to wait until I learned
    advanced magic before asking, but...
[09:19] Yunyun
    Hey, Megumin, if you don't
    mind... would you...
[09:24] Yunyun
    like to join me in a—
[09:33] Megumin
    Well, she sure was carried away with ease.
[09:36] Megumin
    Do you think it'd work in a dating context?
[09:37] Yunyun
    Obviously not!
[09:39] Adventurer 3A
    Giant Bats! It's a whole
    colony of Giant Bats!
SIGN    KONOSUBA - An Explosion on This Wonderful World!
[09:49] Megumin
    That was a close one.
[09:51] Yunyun
    M-Magic power... No more magic power...
[09:58] Megumin
    Well done.
[10:00] Megumin
    You certainly stole the show, didn't you?
[10:02] Yunyun
    Could you... help out... a little?
[10:05] Owner
    You've saved us all again, Miss Yunyun!
[10:10] Adventurer 3A
    If you're going to Axel, that means
    you're looking for a party, right?
[10:14] 3A/3J
    Would you care to join ours?
[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...
[10:32] Owner
    I'm sure she was just
    protecting the carriages.
[10:35] Adventurer 3J
    But don't you think she would've
    fired off at least one spell?
[10:36] Yunyun
    Plus, you're gonna be all
    alone at this rate...
[10:39] Yunyun
    If you don't mind, Megumin,
[10:41] Yunyun
    I wouldn't have any problems with
    us being in the same party...
[10:44] Megumin
    I'm going to bed now.
[10:46] Yunyun
    Would you just listen to me?!
[10:48] Yunyun
    Megumin!
[11:01] Megumin
    Such bad manners.
[11:03] Yunyun
    I don't have all my magic power back
    yet... What do you want from me?
[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!
[11:25] Megumin
    But I'm pretty certain there won't
    be further monster attacks.
[11:29] Megumin
    Why, I'd wager we're more likely to see
    jelly slime rain from the sky first.
[11:33] Yunyun
    Seriously, cut it out.
[11:35] Yunyun
    Haven't you ever heard "If it happens
    twice, it can happen a third time"?
[11:39] Megumin
    Ever the worrywart, Yunyun.
[11:43] Adventurer 3J
    G-Goblins! It's a gaggle of goblins!
[11:45] Adventurer 3A
    Let the master know!
[11:46] Owner
    Get her, quickly!
[11:48] Adventurer 3J
    You're up, master!
[11:49] Owner
    Master! Master! Master!
SIGN    KONOSUBA - An Explosion on This Wonderful World!
[11:53] Yunyun
    Here we go...
[12:03] Yunyun
    N-No more... I seriously can't keep this up...
[12:08] Megumin
    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
    The town for beginner adventurers, Axel!

[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.
[23:35] Yunyun
    N-Next time, we'll hit your ennui with an...

    Explosion!
