**[00:05] Nir**
Wow!
**[00:07] Nir**
I've never seen it from so close before!
**[00:10] Sensei**
It's overflowing with vitality.
**[00:13] Nir**
Do you have to make that face
when you look at it, Sensei?
**[00:16] Tama**
This is the largest tree
in all of Zauberberg,
**[00:19] Tama**
Grün's famous World Tree!
**[00:22] Annette**
No matter how many times I visit,
it always cleanses the spirit.
**[00:25] Tama**
I know, right?
**[00:28] Nir**
We're not impressed by you, Tama.
**[00:31] Tama**
Wanna say that again, Nir?!
**[00:33] Annette**
This World Tree is said to be a holy
tree that watches over Zauberberg.
**[00:37] Annette**
It grants its protection to
everyone who visits it.
**[00:42] Tama**
Hey, let me do the explaining...
**[00:44] Annette**
At its foot is the quiet town of Toneriko,
**[00:47] Tama**
Hey. Hey. Hey.
**[00:48] Annette**
where the people live simple
lives alongside nature.
**[00:52] Annette**
Shall we stop by to pray
for safe travels, as well?
**[00:58] Sensei**
Now, now. Hurry up and drag my coffin.

***SIGN*** Welcome to Toneriko, the town that loves
the World Tree and Nature.
**[01:18] Nir**
That's the Other Worlders'
language. What does it say?
**[01:23] Degenerate A**
Damn it! I lost all my money!
**[01:27] Sensei**
It looks like a gambling hall.
**[01:30] Nir**
In a quiet town where people live
simple lives alongside nature, huh?
**[01:37] Thug C**
He freaking stabbed him!
**[01:39] Thug D**
That's it! Stab him more!
**[01:40] Tama**
There must be some mistake.
**[01:42] Sensei**
Water conforms to the shape of the vessel.
**[01:45] Sensei**
This must be the reality
this town has chosen.

**[01:55] Sensei**
By the way, are there any trees suitable
for hanging oneself around here?
**[02:01] Nir**
Huh? What's gotten into you?
**[02:03] Annette**
For now, let's go talk to the mayor.
**[02:08] Nir**
Come on. Let's go, Sensei.
**[02:10] Nir**
Don't eat pebbles off the ground.
**[02:14] Annette**
Mr. Mayor, what's going on here?
**[02:18] Annette**
What happened to the town?
**[02:22] Mayor**
As you know,
**[02:24] Mayor**
Toneriko was a quiet town that lived
with the blessings of the World Tree.
**[02:30] Mayor**
However, several months ago,
**[02:32] Mayor**
some Other Worlders who came to see
the World Tree began living here.
**[02:36] Mayor**
Since they built that gambling hall,
**[02:39] Mayor**
it has attracted all kinds of barbarous
Other Worlders from all over the place,
**[02:44] Mayor**
and they've taken our quiet lifestyle from us.
**[02:49] Annette**
How deeply sinful.
**[02:51] Mayor**
Take a look.
**[02:53] Annette**
That's a leaf of the World Tree.
**[02:56] Annette**
It seems lifeless.
**[02:58] Mayor**
Since then, the World Tree has grown weaker
every day, and it has begun to wilt.
**[03:04] Mayor**
It must be a sign that the spirit of
the World Tree is saddened by this.
**[03:09] Tama**
No...
**[03:10] Mayor**
Travelers, we are running out of time.
**[03:15] Mayor**
Will you restore our town
to its original state?
***SIGN*** Accept the
mayor's quest?
Yes
No
**[03:20] Sensei**
More importantly, will you restore
this jar to its original form?
***SIGN*** Yes
No
More importantly,
will you restore this
jar to its original
form?

**[03:25] Nir**
Huh?!
**[03:26] Tama**
What are you saying, Sensei?
**[03:29] Yamada**
I overheard your conversation.
**[03:33] Yamada**
If the World Tree is in danger, I will save it.
**[03:39] Annette**
Er... Who are you?
**[03:41] Yamada**
Pardon me. I am Yamada the Other Worlder.
**[03:44] Tama**
Y-You're an Other Worlder?!
**[03:47] Yamada**
I understand your distrust for
Other Worlders, but I am different.
**[03:55] Yamada**
I am someone who truly desires
peace for this world.
**[03:58] Yamada**
As a fellow Other Worlder,
I cannot ignore their wrongdoings.
**[04:04] Yamada**
Sir, please allow me to handle this.
**[04:10] Mayor**
You mean you'll do it?
**[04:11] Tama**
Huh. I never knew some of them were like this.
**[04:14] Annette**
That's a marvelous thought.
**[04:16] Annette**
Let us assist Mr. Yamada and save
the town together, Sensei.
**[04:22] Annette**
Sensei?
**[04:29] Sensei**
My steps are light.
**[04:31] Sensei**
My breaths are deep.
**[04:33] Sensei**
My back is straight.
**[04:36] Sensei**
My mind and body are healthy.
**[04:40] Sensei**
I must do something about this quickly.
**[04:51] Sensei**
This hole stinks of immorality.
**[05:08] Sensei**
What an unhealthy and corrupt place.
**[05:13] Sensei**
This is exactly what I was looking for.
**[05:15] Sensei**
Friends, would you share
some of your smoke with me?
**[05:20] Sensei**
Please.
**[05:26] Esche**
And who is this?
**[05:28] Esche**
I don't recognize you.
**[05:32] Esche**
Let me take you someplace
more fun than this.
**[05:44] Esche**
Hey, uh... Don't you think you've had too much?
**[05:49] Sensei**
I'm trying to drink myself to death.
**[05:51] Sensei**
Living makes me so sad I can't bear it.
**[05:55] Esche**
What an interesting person.
**[05:58] Esche**
But what were you doing in that cave?
**[06:02] Esche**
That's where people who are addicted to
the World Tree's pain-relieving leaves go.
**[06:08] Sensei**
I lost something important to me.
**[06:11] Sensei**
The thought of my mind and body becoming
healthy keeps me up at night.
**[06:21] Esche**
What's your name?
**[06:23] Sensei**
People call me Sensei.
**[06:26] Esche**
In that case, Sensei...
**[06:29] Esche**
I'll help you sleep comfortably.
**[06:35] Esche**
Despite how I seem, I'm a dancer.
**[06:38] Esche**
Take my word for it and watch.
**[06:42] Sensei**
A dancer...
***SIGN*** The Dancing Girl of Izu

**[06:46] Sensei**
Is watching someone dance so great?
**[06:49] Esche**
Just watch.
**[07:17] Sensei**
I see.
**[07:19] Sensei**
What a pleasant night.
**[07:30] Annette**
Sensei...
**[07:33] Annette**
Where did you go?
**[07:37] Tama**
Calm down.
**[07:38] Yamada**
Is something wrong with her?
**[07:40] Nir**
Our friend has been missing since yesterday.
**[07:44] Annette**
Sensei!
**[07:51] Esche**
We're here, Sensei.
**[07:53] Annette**
Who are you?!
**[07:55] Tama**
Now, now...
**[07:57] Mayor**
What do you want, Esche?
**[07:59] Mayor**
I thought I told you not to come here.
**[08:02] Esche**
I only came to drop this man off.
**[08:12] Esche**
See you later, Sensei. Sweet dreams.
**[08:16] Mayor**
Another person ruined...
**[08:19] Tama**
Who was that?
**[08:21] Mayor**
Her name is Esche.
**[08:24] Mayor**
They call her the Witch of Toneriko.
**[08:27] Nir**
A w-witch?
**[08:29] Yamada**
Sounds ominous.
**[08:31] Mayor**
Yes.
**[08:32] Mayor**
When the fallen Other Worlders began
building the gambling hall on the edge of town,
**[08:38] Mayor**
we were powerless to stop them.
**[08:42] Mayor**
But Esche was different.
**[08:46] Mayor**
Only she gained the favor
of the fallen Other Worlders
**[08:48] Mayor**
and opened a bar next to the gambling hall.
**[08:53] Yamada**
So she's a resident who sided
with the fallen Other Worlders.
**[08:57] Mayor**
She was always a mysterious woman
who lived on the edge of town.
**[09:02] Mayor**
Her age and history are unknown.
**[09:05] Mayor**
We left her alone because she was harmless,
but she's a real trickster.
**[09:09] Mayor**
Now she makes a fortune charming fallen
Other Worlders with her liquor and dancing.
**[09:17] Mayor**
At some point, the townsfolk began
calling her the Traitorous Witch.
**[09:23] Yamada**
So she sided with evil to make money.
**[09:27] Yamada**
Like the fallen Other Worlders, that witch
will have to face righteous judgment.
**[09:32] Mayor**
Oh, how promising!
**[09:35] Mayor**
You are a true hero.
**[09:38] Mayor**
Please save our town.

**[09:51] Annette**
Wait, Sensei!
**[09:53] Annette**
Where are you going?
**[09:55] Annette**
The battle against the Other
Worlders is starting soon.
**[09:58] Sensei**
I don't recall accepting such a dangerous job.
**[10:03] Sensei**
What I need now is the peace
granted by that bar.
**[10:07] Annette**
Sensei!
**[10:08] Yamada**
Don't waste your time.
**[10:09] Yamada**
He's already been charmed by the witch.
**[10:13] Annette**
But...
**[10:14] Yamada**
Don't worry.
**[10:16] Yamada**
If we destroy the evil dwelling in this
town, I'm sure he will come to his senses.
**[10:23] Sensei**
Thank you, Esche-kun.
**[10:25] Sensei**
Because of you, I forgot about my
painful life last night and dreamed.
**[10:31] Esche**
Oh, Sensei.
**[10:34] Esche**
Even so, you shouldn't hang around here.
**[10:38] Esche**
Don't you know they call me a witch?
**[10:42] Esche**
Don't blame me if I ruin you.
**[10:46] Sensei**
That's exactly what I want.
**[10:49] Esche**
My word. You're unbelievable.
**[10:52] Esche**
Then may the spirit of the World Tree grant
its protection to your painful life.
**[11:02] Sensei**
The spirit of the World Tree?
**[11:03] Esche**
Don't you know? That's the legend around here.
**[11:07] Esche**
"When the spirit of the World Tree descends,
**[11:10] Esche**
the wishes of the weak and sick will
be granted, and they will be saved."
**[11:16] Esche**
Why don't you try praying
to the World Tree, too?
**[11:20] Esche**
It may ease your pain a little.
**[11:28] Sensei**
Aren't you the one who wants to be saved?
**[11:35] Sensei**
It occurred to me when I saw you last night.
**[11:38] Sensei**
Your dancing is beautiful,
delicate, and above all...
**[11:44] Sensei**
filled with sadness.
**[11:47] Esche**
I... I'm not...
**[11:52] Sabu**
Esche, I need a drink!
**[11:54] Sabe**
Bring me something to drink!
**[11:56] Esche**
Right away.
**[11:58] Esche**
Sensei, take your time.
**[12:01] Sabu**
You scumbags.
**[12:03] Sabu**
You blew the money you
owed us at the casino?
**[12:08] Kyotaro**
S-Sorry. I promise we'll pay you back.
**[12:10] Sabu**
Your promises don't mean shit!
**[12:12] Sabu**
If you don't pay us back today,
**[12:14] Sabu**
I'll use my overpowered skill Ant Lion
to bury you in the deserts of Samstag!
**[12:19] Sabu**
Now go sell a kidney or something
and get me that money!
**[12:22] Kyotaro**
Y-Yes, sir!
**[12:25] Sabu**
For cryin' out loud... Anyway, boss,
**[12:28] Sabu**
our profits are way down since there
are fewer idiots like them around.
**[12:34] Sabu**
Should we move the casino elsewhere?
**[12:37] Boss**
No, it's too soon for that.
**[12:40] Boss**
We'll draw in the people across the bridge.
**[12:44] Boss**
We just have to show those carefree
demis the joy of gambling
**[12:49] Boss**
and how good it feels to smoke extra-strong
leaves from the World Tree.
**[12:57] Esche**
My, my, boss. That doesn't sound very nice.
**[13:02] Esche**
You promised only Other Worlders
could play at the casino,
**[13:05] Esche**
and that you'd leave the townsfolk alone.
**[13:08] Boss**
Sorry, but this is business, Esche.
**[13:12] Boss**
Besides, with more customers,
you'll make more money, too.
**[13:16] Esche**
I don't care about that.
**[13:18] Esche**
I paid you a ton in protection money so you
wouldn't touch the people across the bridge.
**[13:24] Boss**
Hey, Sabu. Go kidnap a few folks and
have them smoke some leaf as a test.
**[13:29] Sub**
Yes, boss.
**[13:30] Esche**
Please!
**[13:31] Esche**
Leave the townsfolk alone!
**[13:32] Sabu**
Shut up!
**[13:39] Esche**
S-Sensei...
**[13:41] Sensei**
In the world I come from, we don't
call women like you witches.
**[13:49] Sensei**
You are an angel.
**[13:55] Boss**
What was that?
**[13:57] Sabu**
What was that sound?
**[14:06] Sabu**
Y-You brats! What do you think you're doing?!
**[14:10] Yamada**
There you are, evil fallen Other Worlders...
**[14:14] Yamada**
and the greedy witch who
chose to work with them.
**[14:18] Yamada**
You've disrupted the quiet lives
of the innocent townsfolk.
**[14:22] Yamada**
Now face your punishment.
**[14:24] Sabu**
Who do you think you're
talking to?! Get him!
**[14:28] Sensei**
Good grief.
**[14:29] Sabu**
Huh?
**[14:30] Sensei**
I was having such pleasant dreams, too.
**[14:33] Sensei**
You've ruined it.
**[14:34] Sabu**
Eh?
**[14:35] Esche**
Sensei?
**[14:37] Sensei**
I can't stand people like
you who shout grand things.
**[14:45] Annette**
Sensei...
**[14:47] Yamada**
Sorry, but I don't have time for you.
**[14:50] Yamada**
Unlike you, a disgrace to the rest of
us Other Worlders, I'm a busy man.
**[14:56] Yamada**
You should come to your senses and
consider what it is that you should do.
**[15:02] Sabu**
Where do you think you're sitting?!
**[15:05] Sensei**
Thank you for sharing your
opinion, Yamada-kun.
**[15:08] Sensei**
But I've never once changed my
ways because someone lectured me.
**[15:15] Sensei**
I've also never once respected
someone for lecturing me.
**[15:22] Yamada**
Good grief.
**[15:24] Yamada**
Then I shall show you what
righteous conduct looks like.
**[15:29] Boss**
Sabu, shut him up.
**[15:32] Sabu**
Yes, boss.
**[15:34] Sabu**
Wrap him up and throw him in the river!
**[15:37] Henchmen**
Yes, boss!
**[15:40] Yamada**
Justice Judgment.
**[15:43] Yamada**
Be judged!
**[15:49] Tama**
Wow.
**[15:50] Nir**
He's really strong.
**[15:53] Sabu**
B-Boss, this isn't gonna work!
**[15:55] Boss**
R-Retreat!
**[15:57] Sabu**
You'll pay for this, idiot!
**[16:01] Yamada**
Now, will you turn your blade against me, too?
**[16:07] Esche**
No. Thank you for saving the town.
**[16:10] Yamada**
So you've finally come to your senses.
**[16:13] Yamada**
If you've learned your lesson,
I suggest you mend your ways.
**[16:17] Mayor**
Lord Yamada.
**[16:19] Yamada**
As promised, I've reclaimed your town.
**[16:22] Townsfolk A**
Peace has returned to Toneriko!
**[16:24] Townsfolk B**
You are the town's savior!
**[16:25] Townsfolk C**
Thank you, hero!
**[16:27] Yamada**
Please, that's enough.
**[16:31] Townsfolk A**
The witch.
**[16:32] Townsfolk B**
It's Esche the Witch.
**[16:33] Townsfolk A**
The traitor.
**[16:35] Townsfolk E**
Wasn't she working with
the fallen Other Worlders?
**[16:38] Townsfolk D**
How much did she make off of nightlife?
**[16:42] Yamada**
Now hold on, good people.
**[16:44] Yamada**
She regrets her actions. No further—
**[16:48] Townsfolk F**
Drive off the witch!
**[16:49] Townsfolk D**
You should be ashamed of yourself, traitor!
**[16:51] Townsfolk G**
Leave this town!
**[16:55] Yamada**
Good people...
**[17:00] Sensei**
Good grief. All worlds are the same.
**[17:04] Sensei**
All people are worthless scum.
**[17:08] Esche**
S-Sensei...
**[17:11] Townsfolk B**
Wh-Who are you?
**[17:12] Sensei**
Is that how you treat the one who fought
all by herself to protect this town?
**[17:19] Townsfolk G**
What did you say?!
**[17:20] Townsfolk D**
You're siding with the witch?!
**[17:23] Sensei**
Every night, she buttered
up those thugs at her bar
**[17:27] Sensei**
and kept them in check so no harm
would come to you townsfolk.
**[17:33] Sensei**
Without her, they would've invaded this
town long before now and tyrannized you.
**[17:41] Sensei**
If this town has a savior, it's Esche-kun.
**[17:47] Sensei**
It's you who throw rocks at
her who should be ashamed.
**[17:52] Townsfolk G**
Sh-Shut up! We won't be fooled by your story!
**[17:55] Townsfolk E**
They're the lies of a man
charmed by the witch!
**[17:59] Esche**
Sensei...
**[18:00] Esche**
It's fine.
**[18:02] Sensei**
Esche-kun...
**[18:04] Townsfolk A**
Leave!
**[18:05] Townsfolk G**
Leave this town!
**[18:06] Townsfolk**
You miser!
**[18:06] Esche**
Sorry for all the trouble I caused.
**[18:08] Townsfolk**
Damn witch!
**[18:09] Townsfolk**
Go on, beat it!
**[18:15] Townsfolk D**
We did it! The evil witch is gone!
**[18:18] Townsfolk F**
True peace has arrived!
**[18:19] Townsfolk**
Tonight, we celebrate!
**[18:29] Yamada**
Did you know this would happen?
**[18:36] Sensei**
The line between righteousness
and evil is a hazy thing.
**[18:41] Sensei**
Yet many wish for a clear distinction and
never doubt that they themselves are good.
**[18:49] Sensei**
When shouted at by such people,
**[18:52] Sensei**
the delicate and beautiful true
love for another is erased.
**[18:59] Yamada**
A-Are you saying I was wrong?
**[19:02] Sensei**
Who knows? One thing is clear.
**[19:08] Sensei**
This town willingly let
go of its own protector.
**[19:14] Annette**
Sensei!
**[19:15] Tama**
Don't leave us behind!
**[19:18] All**
Sensei!
**[19:19] All**
Wait for us!
**[19:20] Mayor**
Do you have a moment, Lord Yamada?
**[19:23] Mayor**
After seeing your strength,
I have another request.
**[19:28] Mayor**
Those fallen Other Worlders made a fortune
selling the leaves of the World Tree.
**[19:35] Yamada**
They were doing that?
**[19:37] Mayor**
So we've decided to continue that
practice and sell them ourselves.
**[19:44] Yamada**
What?
**[19:45] Mayor**
The evildoers are gone.
**[19:48] Mayor**
The World Tree will be revived and
grant us even more blessings.
**[19:54] Mayor**
So...
**[19:57] Mayor**
We'd like you to become
this town's bodyguard.
**[20:01] Mayor**
Should those evil fallen Other Worlders
**[20:05] Mayor**
or the nasty witch return to
interfere with our business,
**[20:08] Mayor**
we'd like you to carry out
justice against them again.
**[20:13] Mayor**
As for your payment, how does
10% of the profits sound?
**[20:22] (Flashback) Sensei**
The line between righteousness
and evil is a hazy thing.
**[20:27] Yamada**
What have I done?
**[20:36] Tama**
That ending left me with
a bad taste in my mouth.
**[20:39] Annette**
You saw the whole picture, didn't you?
**[20:42] Sensei**
I wouldn't say that.
**[20:45] Sensei**
Despite what I said to Yamada-kun,
I'm no different.
**[20:49] Sensei**
After all, I failed to save her.
**[20:53] Annette**
Sensei...
**[21:04] Nir**
H-Hey...
**[21:07] Nir**
Look.
**[21:23] Townsfolk**
The World Tree!
**[21:25] Mayor**
Wha... What...
**[21:28] Mayor**
What?!
**[21:32] Nir**
It can't be... The World Tree dried up...
**[21:48] Sensei**
Esche-kun...
**[21:51] Esche**
Thank you for understanding me, Sensei.
**[21:57] Esche**
May you find some peace in your life.
**[22:27] (Flashback) Esche**
"When the spirit of the World Tree descends,
**[22:30] (Flashback) Esche**
the wishes of the weak and sick will
be granted, and they will be saved."
