**[00:02] Sal**
* Mikoto, standing on the path*
* I don't want to travel*
**[00:05] Sal**
* and an ogre,*
* standing on the path that I do...*
**[00:08] Sal**
*Whichever I choose, I'll have regrets.*
**[00:16] Sal**
*If that's the case...*
**[00:35] Sal**
I'll choose the path I prefer!
**[00:37] Sal**
I do want to stop you, Mikoto.
**[00:40] Sal**
But I still
**[00:43] Sal**
want to go with you, too!
**[00:49] Miko**
Stop it!
**[00:50] Miko**
You can't choose me!
**[00:52] Sal**
Mikoto?
**[00:56] Sal**
W-Wait!
**[00:59] Sum**
Go after him.
**[01:02] Sum**
You chose him, after all.
**[01:04] Sum**
You should really try to learn
more about him.
**[01:08] Sal**
You're right!
**[01:08] Sal**
Thank you, Sumeragi!
**[01:15] Sum**
A dazzling girl.
**[02:48] Sal**
Mikoto! Wait, Mikoto!
***SIGN*** Companion and Companion
**[02:55] Miko**
I'm sorry.
**[02:56] Miko**
I shouldn't have made that foolish offer.
**[02:58] Miko**
I was perfectly aware of your ideals.
**[03:01] Miko**
I'm awful.
**[03:02] Miko**
I can't help but act rashly
in the presence of an ogre.
**[03:05] Sal**
But I really do want to go with you!
**[03:13] Miko**
Do you remember that hypothetical
I once presented you?
**[03:17] Sal**
That if a demihuman killed your parents,
you'd hate all demihumans?
**[03:21] Miko**
I hate them.
**[03:24] Miko**
The hatred I feel for them never abates!
**[03:27] Miko**
That's why I kill them.
**[03:30] Miko**
But no amount of killing ever brings relief.
**[03:34] Miko**
So I keep hating them!
**[03:36] Miko**
I keep killing them.
**[03:37] Miko**
The cycle never ends.
**[03:40] Miko**
I can't even tell them apart anymore.
**[03:43] Miko**
So I just kill them all.
**[03:45] Miko**
But I'm also fine with that.
**[03:47] Sal**
Then, as someone promoting harmony
with demihumans,
**[03:50] Sal**
if I stood with them against you,
**[03:52] Sal**
what would you do then?
**[03:59] Sal**
Mikoto?
**[04:05] Sal**
What?
**[04:15] Man**
Monsters!
**[04:16] Man**
O-Ogres!
**[04:20] Sal**
My eye...
**[04:30] Todo**
The place is just crawling with humans.
**[04:32] Shin**
Should I kill them all?
**[04:35] Todo**
There's no point in killing the small fry.
**[04:36] Todo**
Let them go.
**[04:37] Shin**
Fine.
**[04:39] Basu**
Shall I scout from above?
**[04:41] Todo**
Please.
**[04:43] Basu**
Shinki, look after this one.
**[04:45] Shin**
Right.
**[04:48] Basu**
I hear the enemy's more powerful
than Sumeragi.
**[04:51] Basu**
Keep your guard with you, Todoroki.
**[04:53] Todo**
You, too, Basoo.
**[04:55] Shin**
Todoroki.
**[04:57] Shin**
What should we do with Daminki?
**[04:59] Todo**
Set him down there.
**[05:04] Shin**
You sure we can just leave him?
**[05:07] Todo**
Nobody can harm him while he's sleeping.
**[05:12] Shin**
True enough.
**[05:15] Todo**
If we make enough commotion,
the Peach Boy should appear.
**[05:19] Todo**
Let's split up and cause some damage.
**[05:22] Shin**
Sure!
**[05:26] Man**
Hey, did you hear that?
**[05:27] Man**
Yeah, it sounded like an explosion.
**[05:32] Knight**
All tournament participants!
**[05:34] Knight**
The tournament is hereby canceled!
**[05:37] Man**
Where did that—
**[05:38] Knight**
Ogres have descended on our kingdom!
**[05:42] Knight**
The knights have their hands full
with evacuations.
**[05:45] Knight**
And so...
**[05:46] Knight**
We're asking for your cooperation!
**[05:48] Knight**
Whoever brings back an ogre's head
**[05:51] Knight**
will receive 500 gold!
**[05:53] Man**
Five hundred?
**[05:54] Man**
That's amazing.
**[05:57] Haw**
*That explosion earlier*
**[06:01] Haw**
*suggests something on that thing's level.*
**[06:05] Haw**
*"It's too much for you. Just run away."*
**[06:08] Haw**
*I doubt anyone would listen if I said that.*
**[06:12] Haw**
* Even so, it's not as if I have the power*
* to slay an ogre, either.*
**[06:17] Haw**
*I guess I'll be relying on Sally in the end.*
**[06:22] Bar**
Hey, buddy!
**[06:24] Haw**
You're... Barsus, wasn't it?
**[06:27] Bar**
Nice! I can't believe you remember me!
**[06:34] Bar**
You beat me in one hit on the first day.
**[06:39] Haw**
I never forget the men I fight.
**[06:43] Bar**
You're pretty cool, buddy!
**[06:45] Haw**
Ow!
**[06:47] Haw**
Oh, so you're after the ogre bounty?
**[06:51] Bar**
I don't make much as a lumberjack.
**[06:53] Bar**
I was hoping to treat my family
to a piece of the good life.
**[06:57] Haw**
Better not try it.
**[06:58] Haw**
Not even a whole band of humans
can hope to face an ogre.
**[07:03] Haw**
If you really care about your family,
the best thing you can do is be with them.
**[07:07] Bar**
S-Sure.
**[07:09] Bar**
You're a nice guy.
**[07:11] Haw**
Yeah. It gets me into trouble sometimes.
**[07:15] Bar**
But you're right.
I should get back to my family and—
**[07:22] Haw**
B-Barsus?!
**[07:25] Haw**
A single black cloud in a clear sky?
**[07:28] Todo**
I meant to kill you both together,
**[07:31] Todo**
but the big one absorbed it all.
**[07:34] Todo**
You're a very lucky man.
**[07:36] Todo**
Peach Boy.
**[07:38] Haw**
"Peach"...?
**[07:39] Haw**
Who is this kid?
**[07:41] Haw**
Or... is he an ogre?!
**[07:43] Todo**
Very observant.
**[07:44] Todo**
Yes, I am an ogre.
**[07:46] Todo**
The high ogre, Todoroki.
**[07:48] Todo**
And your enemy, Peach Boy!
**[07:53] Frau**
Lightning struck.
**[07:55] Car**
Lightning in a blue sky?
**[07:59] Car**
I wonder...
**[08:05] Car**
Is that Basoo?!
**[08:08] Car**
It can't be...
**[08:10] Car**
Shinki, too?!
**[08:12] Car**
Which means that lightning strike was...
**[08:20] Car**
Todoroki!
**[08:23] Sal**
Must be ogres, right?
**[08:25] Sal**
Are they after me again?
**[08:29] Sal**
But the timing seems
a little too convenient.
**[08:32] Sal**
Is that Sumeragi guy involved somehow?
**[08:36] Sum**
A reasonable inference...
But really, you wound me.
**[08:40] Sal**
Sumeragi! What are you doing here?
**[08:42] Sum**
Just seeking out the source of the commotion.
**[08:46] Sal**
You're a pretty high-ranked ogre, right?
**[08:49] Sal**
Can't you convince them
to stop their attack?
**[08:53] Sum**
I could, perhaps.
**[08:56] Sum**
But why should I help you, my enemies?
**[09:01] ---**
Huh?!
**[09:02] Sum**
Have you forgotten already?
**[09:03] Sum**
You took Mikoto's hand earlier!
**[09:06] Sum**
That madman slays ogres
without reason or discrimination.
**[09:10] Sum**
Yet you took his hand.
**[09:14] Sum**
And now you want me to help you?
**[09:16] Sum**
A bit self-serving, isn't it?
**[09:18] Sal**
Well...
**[09:20] Sal**
Maybe it is, but...
**[09:24] Sal**
Sumeragi. Are you testing me?
**[09:27] Sal**
Or mocking me?
**[09:30] Sum**
Your questions should really be
about your current predicament.
**[09:36] Sum**
There are four ogres attacking.
**[09:38] Sum**
Todoroki, the strongest high ogre
in their group,
**[09:43] Sum**
is facing the weakest of your own, Hawthorn.
**[09:50] Sum**
Do you see?
**[09:51] Sum**
If you don't save him quickly,
he'll be killed.
**[09:54] Sum**
However, I have no intention
of letting you pass.
**[10:00] Sum**
Well? What's your move?
**[10:03] Haw**
I don't know this "Peach Boy" thing
you're talking about.
**[10:07] Haw**
But you're an ogre,
**[10:09] Haw**
and you killed Barsus.
**[10:12] Todo**
What of it?
**[10:16] Haw**
I appreciate it, kid.
**[10:18] Haw**
You've given me a reason to fight.
**[10:21] Haw**
Because I need to make you pay.
**[10:24] Todo**
And I need to make *you* pay, Peach Boy!
**[10:29] Haw**
*That light in his hand...*
**[10:31] Haw**
*And that unnatural black cloud...*
**[10:35] Haw**
*He's...*
**[10:37] Haw**
*an ogre that controls lightning!*
**[10:41] Todo**
You let the sword take the hit that time.
**[10:44] Todo**
Well done.
**[10:45] Todo**
But...
**[10:57] Miko**
What in the world?
**[10:59] Miko**
You came to attack, then fell asleep?
**[11:02] Miko**
I can't imagine what you might be thinking.
**[11:07] Miko**
Ah well...
**[11:09] Miko**
I slay any ogre I come across.
**[11:16] Miko**
What in the...
**[11:17] Miko**
My vision is... suddenly...
**[11:23] Miko**
Damn. When did I...
**[11:32] Car**
Hawthorn's going to be killed at this rate!
**[11:34] Car**
Frau, go on ahead
to where the lightning struck!
**[11:38] Frau**
Right!
**[11:39] Car**
I'm going to try to persuade
the other ogre, Shinki, to stop this!
**[11:46] Car**
He might be able to stop Todoroki, too!
**[11:49] Frau**
Carrot is worried about Hawthorn!
**[12:03] Basu**
You're the harefolk
working for the Peach Boy!
**[12:15] Sal**
So I have to beat you to pass?
**[12:19] Sum**
I see you won't say,
"I'll just have to abandon Hawthorn, then."
**[12:24] Sum**
An unfortunate lack of determination
from you.
**[12:27] Sal**
What?! Abandoning him is as far from
determination as a person can get!
**[12:33] Sal**
I'll protect everything I set my mind to!
**[12:40] Sal**
Because I have the power to do it!
**[12:44] Sum**
Sounds like a bluff.
**[12:46] Sal**
Try calling it a bluff
after I beat the heck out of you!
**[13:04] Todo**
Stop squirming.
**[13:08] Haw**
*I've got only my wooden sword.*
**[13:10] Tod**
You...
**[13:12] Tod**
After all your big talk,
now you're running away?!
**[13:16] Tod**
Shameless coward!
**[13:17] Haw**
*Get him angry, then...*
**[13:22] Tod**
Come out, Peach Boy!
**[13:28] Haw**
*Finish it in one strike!*
**[13:34] Haw**
I wasn't running away.
**[13:36] Haw**
I said I'd make you pay, remember?
**[13:44] Man**
M-Monster!
**[13:55] (Flashback) Man**
Monster!
**[13:56] (Flashback) Man**
Monster!
**[14:01] Car**
Shinki!
**[14:06] Shin**
Meki?
**[14:08] Shin**
I see.
**[14:09] Shin**
You've shrunk a bit
since losing your horn.
**[14:14] Meki**
Why are you doing this?
**[14:15] Meki**
Are you here after Sally?
**[14:17] Shin**
"Sally"?
**[14:18] Shin**
I see.
The Peach Boy is a woman?
**[14:22] Car**
What are you here for?
Tell me!
**[14:27] Car**
What's so funny?!
**[14:30] Shin**
We're here to avenge you, Meki.
**[14:34] ---**
Huh?!
**[14:35] Shin**
Sumeragi apparently told him,
at the Hundred Ogre Gathering,
**[14:40] Shin**
that the Peach Boy killed you.
**[14:45] Car**
Why would Sumeragi say that?
**[14:48] Car**
And more importantly...
why would Todoroki want to avenge me?
**[14:53] Shin**
You really don't know?
**[14:55] ---**
Huh?
**[14:57] Shin**
I guess you wouldn't.
**[14:59] Shin**
Well, typical of ogres.
**[15:02] Car**
But... if he's here to avenge me,
seeing me should make him stop, right?
**[15:08] Shin**
Sure, but I'm not going
to let you reach him.
**[15:13] Shin**
Meki. I'm going to kill you myself.
**[15:16] Shin**
Right here, once and for all.
**[15:20] Haw**
I caught him by surprise
and gave him all I had.
**[15:23] Haw**
I hope it at least knocked him out, but...
**[15:28] Haw**
Yeah, it won't be that easy.
**[15:46] Tod**
I was wondering
how you managed to kill Meki.
**[15:50] Tod**
Now I know.
**[15:51] Tod**
You used these cowardly tactics
to kill Meki.
**[15:55] Haw**
*"Meki"?*
**[15:57] Tod**
Even though you killed Meki,
I at least thought I'd kill you in proper duel.
**[16:03] Tod**
But a coward like you
doesn't deserve the dignity!
**[16:06] Tod**
I'm just going to kill you!
**[16:10] Bas**
*Quite good.*
**[16:12] Bas**
*I should wait for now.*
**[16:14] Frau**
*Should wait for now.*
**[16:16] Frau**
*But...*
**[16:18] Frau**
*Can't wait!*
**[16:44] Shin**
Did you forget?
**[16:46] Shin**
I can stretch my body as far as I want.
**[16:53] Sum**
That was quite a howl.
**[16:56] Sum**
But is that all you've got?
**[16:59] Sal**
My eye?
**[17:00] Sal**
Why? My eye's power didn't activate!
**[17:15] Haw**
An explosion?
**[17:16] Haw**
No... a lightning strike?!
**[17:22] Tod**
This is my cannon,
Raijin Ogre Thunder.
**[17:25] Tod**
Now I'm going to kill you, Peach Boy.
**[17:32] Car**
Are you that desperate to let Todoroki fight?
**[17:36] Shin**
No, Meki.
**[17:38] Shin**
I want to kill you, because you're part
of the coexistence faction.
**[17:43] Car**
"Coexistence faction"?
**[17:45] Shin**
Ogres who heed Sumeragi's call
to promote coexistence with humans.
**[17:51] Shin**
There are some ogres with little in the way
of resentment and will to fight.
**[17:55] Shin**
And their number is growing by the day.
**[17:59] Car**
Coexistence... between humans and ogres?
**[18:03] Car**
*That's what Sally said.*
**[18:07] Shin**
And you're the first
of the coexistence faction to
**[18:10] Shin**
betray ogres and dwell with humans!
**[18:13] Car**
I never betrayed the ogres!
**[18:15] Shin**
Then, could you kill the people
you're traveling with?
**[18:20] Car**
Well...
**[18:21] Shin**
See? You can't even say it.
**[18:25] Shin**
That's just the problem.
**[18:28] Car**
I see we can't talk this out.
**[18:31] Car**
Which means...
**[18:32] Car**
I'll have to beat you
and then go to see Todoroki!
**[18:36] Shin**
An absurd claim,
from an ogre without a horn!
**[18:43] Sal**
Why won't my eye's power...
**[18:48] Sal**
Are you... Are you not an ogre—
**[19:00] Sum**
You can think it over after
you have the heck beaten out of you.
**[19:04] Sum**
What do you expect to protect,
while relying on such an unknown power?
**[19:12] Basu**
To give closure to my friend, Todoroki,
**[19:15] Basu**
I will kill all
associated with the Peach Boy.
**[19:18] Basu**
Wait for me on the other side!
**[19:42] Shin**
It's not going to work.
**[19:47] Shin**
Brute force strikes can't hurt me.
**[19:50] Shin**
I was on the lookout for *xian dao*,
**[19:52] Shin**
but this is nothing!
**[19:53] Shin**
You just have brute force!
**[19:56] Shin**
If you could use your cannon,
I'd be in trouble,
**[19:58] Shin**
but you can't beat me in your state!
**[20:03] Car**
* I don't have the power*
* to pierce his body now.*
**[20:07] Car**
*What do I do?*
**[20:10] Haw**
*That's an ogre for you.*
**[20:12] Haw**
*Utterly absurd levels of power...*
**[20:25] Haw**
You're treating me
to quite the spectacle before I die.
**[20:29] Haw**
I appreciate that.
**[20:31] Todo**
You're a fool
if you're not running this time.
**[20:35] Haw**
It's pretty clear
I can't escape this one.
**[20:39] Haw**
And...
**[20:41] Haw**
my companions probably saw your lightning
and are on their way here.
**[20:47] ---**
Which means
I've got only one option right now:
**[20:50] ---**
Hold you in place for every second I can!
**[20:55] Tod**
You think your companions' arrival
will save you?
**[20:58] Haw**
It doesn't matter whether they do.
**[21:01] Haw**
It's still what I have to do.
**[21:04] Tod**
You may be a coward,
but at least you have some determination.
**[21:09] Tod**
I'll show my appreciation
with a full-power strike!
**[21:15] Tod**
Die in light, Peach Boy!
**[21:20] Haw**
*I've been spared death time and again.*
**[21:24] Haw**
*But now it's all over.*
**[21:26] Haw**
*Which means...*
**[21:27] Haw**
* Here at the end,*
* I'll greet death with dignity!*
**[21:41] Haw**
*Guys,*
**[21:43] Haw**
*I leave the rest to you!*
**[21:56] Todo**
She blocked my lightning?!
**[22:00] Win**
You really do have a death wish.
**[22:03] Win**
Is it something to do
with how you were raised?
**[22:07] Haw**
What...
**[22:08] Haw**
What are you doing here?!
**[22:12] Haw**
Winny!
