[00:04] Aqua
So cold...
[00:06] Aqua
I pawned my coat, too. It's so cold...
[00:12] Aqua
Th-The fire!
[00:14] Aqua
There.
[00:18] Kaz
Hey, what are you doing?!
[00:19] Kaz
Quit screwing around!
[00:21] Kaz
What do you think you're doing
to my only memento of Japan?!
[00:24] Aqua
I don't have any choice!
[00:26] Aqua
There's nothing else to burn!
[00:27] Kaz
Hand over that raiment, then!
[00:29] Kaz
It looks like it would burn
better than a tracksuit!
[00:32] Aqua
Let go, you shut-in NEET!
[00:34] Aqua
Warm me up! Warm me up more!
[00:44] Aqua
Whoa, wait!
[00:54] Kaz
I can't go on like this.
[00:57] Kaz
We have to do something, and fast.

[02:33] Kaz
Our party is poorly balanced.
[02:36] Kaz
I'd like a skill that I could use
more like a main weapon.
[02:36] Aqua
So cold...
[02:43] Kaz
All right, we're here.
[02:44] Kaz
Listen, Aqua.
[02:45] Kaz
I'll say this while I have the chance.
Don't throw any fits, you hear?
[02:48] Aqua
Hey, what're you talking about?
[02:50] Aqua
What do you take me for?
[02:52] Aqua
I'm no hoodlum or outlaw.
[02:55] Aqua
I'm a goddess, a bona fide deity!
[02:57] Aqua
Hey! Are you listening to me?
[02:59] Aqua
Wait! You should listen gratefully
when a goddess speaks!
[03:01] Wiz
Welco—
[03:06] Aqua
It's you, you damned undead!
[03:08] Aqua
You opened up a shop here?
[03:10] Aqua
I'm sleeping in a stable,
[03:13] Aqua
and you're running a shop?!
[03:15] Aqua
You're pretty full of yourself, for a lich!
[03:18] Aqua
I'll burn this shop to the
ground in the name of God—
[03:20] Aqua
Ow!
[03:22] Wiz
Kazuma-san!
[03:25] Kaz
Yo, Wiz. It's been a while.
[03:27] All
KONOSUBA!
[03:31] Aqua
Do you not even serve tea at this shop?
[03:33] Wiz
Oh, I-I'm sorry!
[03:35] Wiz
I'll bring some for you right away!
[03:41] Kaz
I see she hasn't changed.
[03:47] Kaz
Her name is Wiz.
[03:49] Kaz
She may look like an ordinary
human, but she's actually a lich.
[03:52] Kaz
She's a ruler of the undead,
also known as the "No-Life King."
[03:56] Kaz
Although Wiz is a lich, she's a kind girl.
[03:59] Kaz
Every night, she'd send spirits wandering
the graveyard home to Heaven.
[04:02] Kaz
Through various circumstances,
[04:04] Kaz
we took up that job in her stead
[04:07] Kaz
and ended up letting her go, but...
[04:12] Wiz
H-Here you go.
[04:18] Aqua
It's delicious.
[04:20] Aqua
You set up a shop even
though you're an undead,
[04:22] Aqua
and you prepare warm tea even
though you're an undead...
[04:25] Wiz
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
[04:27] Wiz
The likes of me shouldn't live in such luxury!
[04:29] Kaz
Stop acting like a spiteful sister-in-law.
[04:34] Kaz
Wiz, I have some spare points saved up.
[04:37] Kaz
Could you teach me a skill?
[04:40] Aqua
Hey! What are you thinking, Kazuma?!
[04:42] Aqua
I can't possibly overlook a goddess's
attendant learning a lich's skills!
[04:46] Kaz
Who're you calling an attendant?!
[04:48] Aqua
Listen. Liches love gloomy, dismal places.
[04:53] Aqua
The whole lot of them are
basically related to slugs!
[04:56] Wiz
Th-That's terrible!
[04:58] Kaz
But people normally can't
learn lich skills, right?
[05:01] Kaz
I was thinking it could be
[05:03] Kaz
a great asset in battle if
I could learn skills like that.
[05:06] Wiz
Um...
[05:08] Wiz
Did she say "a goddess's attendant" earlier?
[05:10] Aqua
That's right.
[05:11] Aqua
I am Aqua.
[05:13] Aqua
Yes, the goddess Aqua, worshiped
by the Religious Order of Axis.
[05:17] Aqua
Renounce yourself, Lich!
[05:20] Kaz
Hey, Wiz. There's no need to get so scared.
[05:23] Wiz
No, it's...
[05:25] Wiz
There are lots of crazy
people in the Axis sect,
[05:28] Wiz
and it's common knowledge that it's
best not to get involved with them,
[05:32] Wiz
so when I heard that she's the
head goddess of the Axis sect...
[05:38] Aqua
What did you say?!
[05:39] Aqua
Curse you! This is what you get!
[05:40] Wiz
I'm sorry!
[05:42] Kaz
This conversation isn't going anywhere.
[05:44] Aqua
KONOSUBA!
[05:51] Wiz
By the way, I heard you defeated Verdia-san.
[05:56] Wiz
His skill with the sword was
supposed to be quite impressive,
[05:59] Wiz
even among the other leaders,
[06:02] Wiz
so that's quite amazing.
[06:04] Kaz
You sound as if you knew Verdia.
[06:08] Wiz
Oh,
[06:09] Wiz
that's because I'm one of the eight
leaders of the Devil King's army.
[06:12] Aqua
Got you!
[06:15] Wiz
Wait! Please wait, Aqua-sama!
[06:18] Wiz
I beg of you! Please listen
to what I have to say!
[06:23] Aqua
I did it, Kazuma!
[06:24] Aqua
With this, all my debts will be forgiven!
[06:26] Aqua
In fact, I should get change back!
[06:28] Kaz
Hey, Aqua, at least hear her out.
[06:32] Kaz
Listen, as an adventurer,
I obviously can't overlook you
[06:35] Kaz
saying you're a leader of the Devil King's army...
[06:38] Wiz
You've got it all wrong!
[06:39] Wiz
I was asked to maintain the barrier
that protects the Devil King's castle!
[06:43] Wiz
Of course, I've never once
caused anyone any harm,
[06:46] Wiz
and you won't receive any
bounty for defeating me, either!
[06:54] Aqua
I don't really get it, but I'll
eliminate you, just in case.
[06:57] Wiz
Please wait, Aqua-sama!
[06:59] Aqua-Kaz
KONOSUBA!
[07:02] Kaz
So you're saying
[07:03] Kaz
we can open the path to the Devil King's
castle by defeating all of his leaders.
[07:07] Kaz
Is that right?
[07:08] Wiz
Yes, yes! That's correct!
[07:11] Wiz
That's what the Devil King asked of me!
[07:13] Wiz
He said he wouldn't stop me from quietly
managing my shop in a human settlement,
[07:17] Wiz
but only asked that I maintain
the barrier as one of his leaders.
[07:20] Aqua
So, as long as you're around,
[07:22] Aqua
humans can't invade the Devil King's castle?
[07:26] Aqua
Kazuma, let's eliminate her.
[07:28] Wiz
Wait! Please wait!
[07:30] Wiz
Please at least let me live a little while longer!
[07:34] Wiz
I still have something I need to do.
[07:38] Aqua
I could easily break a simple barrier...
[07:42] Aqua
But she's a lich, so let's eliminate her.
[07:44] Wiz
Please wait!
[07:45] Kaz
Now, hang on.
[07:47] Kaz
Even if we broke the barrier right now,
[07:49] Kaz
we can't defeat the Devil King
at our current levels.
[07:52] Kaz
It'll just end in us being beheaded.
[07:55] Aqua
Okay, fine.
[07:56] Wiz
Th-Thank you very much!
[07:58] Kaz
But are you okay with this?
[07:59] Kaz
You don't resent us for
defeating Verdia or anything?
[08:02] Wiz
It's not as though I was particularly
close to Verdia-san or anything.
[08:11] Wiz
Whenever I would walk around...
[08:12] (Flashback) Dul
Whoops!
[08:19] (Flashback) Dul
My hand slipped!
[08:23] Wiz
He was the sort who would often
roll his own head down by my feet
[08:26] Wiz
and try to look up my skirt.
[08:29] (Flashback) Dul
Strike! In so many ways, a total strike!
[08:33] Wiz
Besides,
[08:35] Wiz
I believe my heart is human, even now.
[08:39] Kid
Here I go! Hi-yah!
[08:42] Wiz
Okay, then, I'll teach you one of my skills.
[08:45] Wiz
It's the least I can do to repay
you for letting me go before...
[08:50] Kaz
What's wrong?
[08:51] Wiz
Um...
[08:52] Wiz
All of my skills can only be used on an opponent.
[08:57] Kaz
Aqua, sorry, but would you do it?
[09:01] Aqua
What skill is an undead planning to use on me?
[09:05] Wiz
W-Well...
[09:06] Wiz
How about "Drain Touch"?
[09:09] Wiz
It's a skill that absorbs an
opponent's health and magic,
[09:11] Wiz
and can then distribute that power to others.
[09:14] Kaz
I see. Depending on how it's used,
[09:16] Kaz
it might be able to compensate for
our party's lack of firepower.
[09:20] Wiz
O-Of course,
[09:21] Wiz
I'll only absorb a very small amount.
[09:27] Aqua
Fine. Absorb as much as you can.
[09:30] Aqua
Go right ahead.
[09:33] Kaz
It's getting hard to tell which is
the lich and which is the goddess.
[09:37] Wiz
O-Okay,
[09:39] Wiz
please excuse me.
[09:44] Wiz
Huh? H-Huh?
[09:46] Aqua
Come on, what's the matter?
[09:47] Aqua
Aren't you going to absorb
my magic and health?
[09:50] Wiz
H-Huh?!
[09:52] Aqua
Ow!
[09:53] Aqua
Hey, Kazuma, don't interfere!
[09:55] Aqua
This is a battle between a lich and a goddess!
[09:58] Aqua
You think I'll let her absorb
my strength that easily?!
[10:00] Kaz
Look, we're not getting anywhere,
so let her absorb it!
[10:03] Both
KONOSUBA!
[10:06] Kaz
All right...
[10:25] Kaz
Acquisition complete!
[10:26] Wiz
U-Um, Aqua-sama?
[10:29] Wiz
It's all right. You can let go of my hand now.
[10:32] Wiz
Actually, when you touch me,
it sort of makes my hand tingle,
[10:36] Wiz
so I'd appreciate it if you would let go.
[10:40] Wiz
A-Aqua-sama?
[10:42] Wiz
Um, my hand is starting to burn...
[10:45] Wiz
Aqua-sama, I'm going to disappear!
I'm going to disappear!
[10:47] Wiz
I'm disappearing!
[10:49] Aqua
Ow!
[10:50] Kaz
What are you taking advantage
of the moment to do?
[10:53] Wiz
You're so mean...
[10:55] Kaz
Is it just my imagination,
or does Wiz look kind of see-through?
[10:59] Cust
Excuse me!
[11:02] Cust
Is Wiz-san here?
[11:04] Wiz
KONOSUBA!
[11:12] Kaz
This is the place?
[11:13] Aqua
Not bad! Yes, not bad at all!
[11:16] Aqua
This should be a fitting place for me to live!
[11:19] Megu
This was originally some
aristocrat's villa, I hear.
[11:23] Dark
But the landlord certainly is generous,
allowing us to live here as
[11:26] Dark
a reward if we can exorcise it.
[11:28] Kaz
Wiz is apparently known as a
famous magician in our city,
[11:33] Kaz
so people often bring cases like these to her.
[11:36] Aqua
With this, we can make it through
the winter without worry!
[11:40] Aqua
Like they say, "make the
best of a bad situation."
[11:43] Aqua
Nothing less from me!
[11:44] Kaz
But according to the landlord,
spirits reappear instantly,
[11:46] Kaz
no matter how many times they're exorcised.
[11:49] Aqua
Leave it to me!
[11:50] Aqua
I'm a goddess and an arch priest!
[11:53] Aqua
You could call me an anti-undead expert!
[12:01] Aqua
I see it. I see it!
[12:03] Aqua
There was a child born
[12:05] Aqua
in this mansion to an aristocrat who made
a move on his maid, partly in fun,
[12:08] Aqua
and that illegitimate child was confined here.
[12:11] Aqua
The aristocrat had a weak constitution,
and when he died from illness,
[12:14] Aqua
the mother of the illegitimate
child went missing, as well.
[12:17] Aqua
The girl remained in the
mansion and succumbed
[12:19] Aqua
to the same illness as her father,
passing away at a young age,
[12:22] Aqua
lonely and alone, without ever
knowing her parents' faces.
[12:22] Kaz
I really want to ask how you know
the setting in such detail...
[12:32] Kaz
That'll take care of the cleaning for now.
[12:34] Dark
We've decided the room arrangements,
and we've carried in our luggage,
[12:37] Dark
so all that's left is to wait for nighttime.
[12:39] Kaz
No surprise that it's a little dusty... Huh?
[12:40] Aqua
The girl's name was Anna Filante Estheroid.
[12:43] Aqua
Her favorite things were stuffed dolls
and tales of adventurers' journeys.
[12:48] Aqua
But don't worry. This spirit isn't a bad girl.
[12:51] Aqua
Whoa!
[12:52] Aqua
She may be a child, but she appears to
like things that are a bit grown-up.
[12:55] Aqua
She enjoys sweet, hard drinks—
[12:58] Kaz
Okay, everyone's free to do
as they please from now on.
[13:01] Kaz
Call out as soon as an evil spirit shows up.
[13:04] Kaz
Dismissed!
[13:10] Kaz
This is great!
[13:11] Kaz
Having my own room is a wonderful thing!
[13:14] Kaz
I'm sure the evil spirits
will be gone by morning.
[13:17] Kaz
Knowing Aqua, she isn't the
type to let evil spirits
[13:21] Kaz
do whatever they like in her own house.
[13:24] Kaz
She is an arch priest and goddess, after all.
[13:29] Kaz
What?!
[13:32] Kaz
What's wrong? Hey, Aqua, what happened?!
[13:33] Kaz
Are you all right?
[13:37] Aqua
Kazuma!
[13:39] Kaz
Hey.
[13:40] Aqua
This is super expensive alcohol
that I've been saving.
[13:44] Aqua
I was looking forward to taking
leisurely sips of it after my bath...
[13:48] Aqua
But when I came back to
my room, as you can see,
[13:52] Aqua
it was empty!
[13:53] Kaz
I see. Goodnight, then. See you tomorrow.
[13:55] Aqua
This is the work of evil spirits!
[13:57] Aqua
I'm going to go look around the mansion
[13:59] Aqua
and strike down any spirits
that catch my eye!
[14:04] Aqua
Show yourselves!
[14:09] Aqua
Turn Undead! Turn Undead! Turn Undead!
[14:12] Aqua
Turn Undead! Turn Undead!
[14:14] Aqua
Nature's Beauty!
[14:15] Aqua
Turn Undead! Turn Undead! Turn Undead!
[14:29] Kaz
I gotta go to the bathroom.
[14:36] Kaz
Whoa, scary!
[14:37] Kaz
Huh? Was there a doll like that in this room?
[14:40] Kaz
It can't be!
[14:42] Kaz
A clichéd development like
this can't be happening!
[15:05] Kaz
Aqua! Aqua-sama!
[15:08] Kaz
Scary! Scary! This is super scary! What is this?!
[15:13] Kaz
Aqua! Save m—
[15:22] Kaz
Don't scare me like that, Megumin!
[15:23] Kaz
I nearly wet myself.
[15:25] Megu
I'm the one who should be saying that!
[15:27] Megu
Why did you come barging into this room?
[15:30] Megu
I thought Aqua was coming back.
[15:33] Kaz
I could ask you the same.
Why are you in Aqua's room?
[15:36] Megu
Well, there were dolls moving
around all over the place...
[15:40] Megu
So, um, I was going to have Aqua protect me...
[15:46] Megu
and thought we could go
to the bathroom together.
[15:50] Kaz
You, too?
[15:52] Kaz
Aqua's probably still out exorcising
spirits in the mansion, isn't she?
[15:56] Megu
Is she? I'm sure Darkness is with her, then.
[16:01] Kaz
Yeah, despite how she is, she's a crusader.
[16:06] Kaz
Hey, Megumin,
[16:08] Kaz
look over there and cover
your ears for a minute.
[16:11] Kaz
I'm going to borrow your veranda for a—
[16:14] Kaz
Hey, what are you doing?
[16:15] Kaz
Let go.
[16:16] Kaz
If you don't, my pants and the carpet in
this room are going to be in big trouble.
[16:20] Megu
I won't let you.
[16:22] Megu
How can you try to relieve yourself alone?
[16:25] Megu
Aren't we allies?
[16:27] Megu
Wherever we go, bathroom or otherwise,
[16:30] Megu
we go together!
[16:33] Kaz
Let go!
[16:34] Kaz
Don't emphasize our bond as
allies only at times like these!
[16:36] Kaz
Didn't you say crimson demons
don't use the bathroom?!
[16:39] Kaz
If you want, there's an empty
bottle lying over there!
[16:42] Megu
You just blurted out something outrageous!
[16:43] Kaz
Now, do it! Give it a try! Go pee!
[16:45] Megu
What are you suggesting I
do with that empty bottle?!
[16:47] Megu
I won't let you!
[16:49] Megu
I can at least shake you from behind
[16:51] Megu
while you're taking of your business—
[17:06] Megu
KONOSUBA!
[17:14] Megu
Kazuma, are you there?
[17:15] Kaz
I'm here.
[17:17] Megu
Are you really there?
[17:19] Kaz
I am here!
[17:20] Megu
You're really, really there for me, right?
[17:23] Kaz
I'm here!
[17:24] Kaz
I'm right here, and I won't
leave you, so hurry up and go!
[17:28] Megu
Um, this is a little embarrassing,
[17:31] Megu
so could you sing a song or
something in a loud voice?
[17:34] Kaz
Why do I have to sing in the middle
of the night, in front of a bathroom?!
[17:44] Kaz
Hey, Megumin, hurry up!
[17:45] Megu
Please don't rush me like that!
[17:48] Megu
I know you're in a tough spot, too!
[17:50] Kaz
It's true that both our
bladders are in a tough spot,
[17:52] Kaz
but we've got a bigger problem closing in!
[17:54] Megu
I can't go if you rush me like that!
[17:59] Kaz
It's no good!
[17:59] Kaz
I can't wait any longer!
[18:06] Kaz
Hurry!
[18:10] Megu
How can anyone have so
little common sense?!
[18:12] Kaz
You at least got halfway through, so you're fine!
[18:15] Megu
What are you talking about?
[18:16] Megu
Crimson demons don't use the bathroom.
[18:19] Kaz
You're saying that now?!
[18:20] Kaz
I'm already at my limit here!
[18:23] Megu
I thought that might happen, so I brought this.
[18:26] Megu
Please use it.
[18:27] Kaz
No, thanks!
[18:37] Kaz
I can't hold it anymore.
[18:39] Kaz
At this point, I'd sooner use the vase...
[18:41] Megu
Darkness blacker than black
and darker than dark,
[18:45] Megu
I beseech thee, combine with my deep crimson.
[18:47] Kaz
What are you chanting?
[18:49] Kaz
You want to blow away this
mansion along with them?!
[18:56] Kaz
Damn... We'll just have to go for it!
[18:58] Kaz
Megumin, once I open the door, run!
[19:00] Kaz
I'll use the Drain Touch skill I just learned
[19:02] Kaz
and absorb the magic of as many dolls as I can!
[19:06] Kaz
Bring it on, you evil spirits!
[19:10] Kaz
I'll sic our mad-dog goddess
on you all later, damn it!
[19:19] Dark
H-Hey, Aqua, are you all right?
[19:22] Dark
KONOSUBA!
[19:23] 3
Yay! Yay!
[19:25] Luna
Since you exorcised the evil spirits,
[19:27] Luna
you get a special reward.
[19:29] Luna
This was posted as a kill quest,
[19:32] Luna
but even the guild was bothered
[19:34] Luna
by how new evil spirits settled in,
no matter how many were exorcised.
[19:37] Kaz
So I hear.
[19:39] Kaz
Why did so many evil spirits gather there?
[19:41] Luna
About that...
[19:43] Luna
There's a community graveyard
near that mansion, correct?
[19:47] Aqua
A community graveyard?
[19:49] Kaz
The place where we first met Wiz?
[19:52] Luna
Someone apparently erected a massive
barrier as a prank or something.
[19:56] Luna
So the spirits had nowhere to go
[19:58] Luna
and settled in that vacant mansion instead.
[20:02] Kaz
Excuse us for a moment.
[20:07] Kaz
Hey. You know what's going
on, don't you? Spill it.
[20:11] Aqua
Yes.
[20:12] Aqua
You remember how we undertook exorcising
the graveyard in Wiz's stead before?
[20:15] Kaz
Uh-huh.
[20:16] Aqua
But constantly going all the way
to the graveyard was a huge pain.
[20:19] Kaz
Uh-huh.
[20:19] Aqua
So I figured if I took away their graveyard,
[20:22] Aqua
the spirits' home, they would
eventually disperse and leave.
[20:26] Aqua
So... I... did.
[20:29] Kaz
Talk about stirring up trouble
and taking the credit!
[20:31] Kaz
This is obviously wrong.
[20:34] Kaz
We won't accept the special
reward from the guild.
[20:37] Kaz
Got it?
[20:39] Aqua
Yes.
[20:40] Both
KONOSUBA!
[20:44] Kaz
I thought for sure it was
all Aqua's wild delusions.
[20:47] Kaz

[20:50] Wiz
Kazuma-san.
[20:51] Wiz
Hello. Are you cleaning the gravestone?
[20:54] Wiz
Isn't it great that you've
been allowed to live here?
[20:58] Kaz
It's a life-saver that the landlord
here is such a nice person.
[21:01] Kaz
We caused you a lot of trouble, too, Wiz.
[21:03] Wiz
No, no. I personally think
this was for the best.
[21:08] Wiz
I'm sure she won't be lonely anymore.
[21:13] Kaz
I'm sure.
[21:14] Kaz
I'm begging you, please don't

[21:34] Aqua
If you don't, your long-awaited

[21:44] Kaz
Got it. I'm on my way!
[21:47] Dark
Aqua, we're out of wood for the fireplace.
[21:50] Aqua
Oh, then toss Kazuma's tracksuit
over there onto the fire!
[21:53] Kaz
Don't!
[21:55] Kaz
I told you, don't try to
burn my precious memories!
