[00:20] Reinhard
Felt-sama, thank you for gracing us
with your presence.
[00:25] Felt
Reinhard...
[00:33] Felt
You bastard!
[00:34] Felt
You dragged me here with no explanation,
and what do you call all this?!
[00:38] Reinhard
You surprised me...
[00:40] ---
What's brought on such behavior?
[00:42] Felt
Don't block my kick and ask me
that, like nothing happened!
[00:46] Felt
I've had just about all I can take!
[00:48] Reinhard
Does the dress not suit your taste?
[00:51] Reinhard
It looks lovely on you.
[00:52] Felt
I'm not talking about the dress,
and I'm not embarrassed!
[00:55] Emilia
That's the girl from...
[00:58] Subaru
I guess it isn't that easy to change
someone at their core...
[01:01] Subaru
And not only me.
[01:04] Felt
What the heck are you doing here?
[01:06] Subaru
Hey! It's been a while.
How have you be—
[01:09] Subaru
Randaba!
[01:11] Felt
Looks like the hole in your gut
isn't bothering you anymore.
[01:13] Subaru
If you were worried about that,
be nice to me!
[01:16] Marcos
Felt-sama, if you have finished
rekindling old friendships,
[01:19] Marcos
please step over here.
[01:23] Felt
So, what is it you want me to do?
[01:26] Reinhard
I would like to say,
"To act more like a lady,"
[01:29] Reinhard
but this comes first.
[01:42] Reinhard
As you can see,
[01:43] ---
the dragon gem has recognized
Felt-sama as a priestess.
[01:47] Reinhard
With her participation approved,
[01:49] Reinhard
I believe it is time to begin the
royal selection in earnest.
[01:58] Rickert
Even if the Dragon Stone has recognized her,
[02:01] Rickert
isn't her selection a bit problematic?
[02:04] Marcos
You believe we, the Imperial Knights,
have made an error?
[02:09] Subaru
The atmosphere's getting kind of dicey.
[02:12] Al
Yeah, but it doesn't bother me.
[02:15] Felix
It's nyo big deal to me, either...
[02:18] Felix
After all, I've already pledged my
loyalty exclusively to one lady!
[02:23] Julius
I feel the same.
[02:25] Julius
My sword already belongs to Anastasia-sama.
[02:31] Subaru
Well, my feelings for Emilia won't
come in second to anyone!
[02:35] Guy1
She doesn't have the self-awareness
to become a ruler.
[02:36] Guy2
You can dress her up, but you
can't give her grace.
[02:39] Guy2
She's uneducated, as well.
[02:41] Miklotov
Silence!
[02:44] Miklotov
Knight Reinhard,
[02:46] Miklotov
would you begin by explaining to us
what led you to her discovery?
[02:53] Reinhard
I took custody of Felt-sama in the slums,
about one month ago.
[02:59] Rickert
She's a gutter rat from the slums?!
[03:03] Felt
Well, sorry for being a gutter rat!
[03:05] Felt
You were the ones who dragged
me here against my will!
[03:07] Priscilla
All of this long-winded blather
could not be more tedious.
[03:11] Priscilla
Of course, I suppose you lived as a gutter rat
[03:14] Priscilla
because you could only manage
tedious conversation...
[03:17] Felt
Oh? If you want a fight, you've got one.
[03:20] Priscilla
What insolence.
[03:21] ---
Who do you think I am?
[03:24] Al
Princess, that isn't...
[03:28] Reinhard
Many pardons, Priscilla-sama.
[03:30] Emilia
What are you thinking,
in a hallowed place like this?
[03:34] Priscilla
I was only trying to teach an
untrained little bitch her place.
[03:38] Emilia
You won't even apologize?
[03:41] Priscilla
Then, will you also apologize for being born?
[03:46] Priscilla
You silver-haired half-elf.
[03:49] Emilia
I have no connection to the witch...
[03:53] Al
Princess, could you drop it now?
[03:55] Al
I'll be the one to suffer if you
make too many enemies, seriously.
[03:59] Miklotov
Are you all quite finished?
[04:02] Marcos
Then, royal selection candidates,
please come forth.
[04:06] Marcos
Priscilla Barielle-sama and her attendant, Al.
[04:10] Priscilla
This selection is pointless.
[04:12] Priscilla
I am the one suited to rule this nation!
[04:15] Priscilla
All you need to do is serve
me and grovel at my feet.
[04:20] Marcos
Head of the Karsten family,
Crusch Karsten-sama,
[04:23] Marcos
and her attendant, the knight Felix Argyle.
[04:27] Crusch
Should I become the new ruler,
[04:29] Crusch
I will make the dragon forget
the covenant it demanded.
[04:33] Crusch
The Dragon's Empire of Lugunica
belongs not to the dragon,
[04:35] ---
but to us.
[04:37] Marcos
Anastasia Hoshin-sama,
of the Hoshin Company,
[04:40] Marcos
and her attendant, the knight Julius Euclius.
[04:45] Anastasia
I'm a greedy gal, so I want everything.
[04:48] Anastasia
No amount of commercial
success can satisfy me.
[04:51] Anastasia
I want my own nation!
[04:54] Marcos
Emilia-sama and the man endorsing her,
[04:57] ---
Margrave Roswaal L. Mathers.
[05:00] Emilia
I have only one wish.
[05:02] ---
For all to be equal.
[05:04] Emilia
I desire to create a nation where
all citizens are equal!
[05:09] Roswaal
Still, after the introduction of
all those knightly attendants,
[05:13] Roswaal
I feel terribly out of place here!
[05:18] Marcos
Finally, Felt-sama and her attendant,
[05:20] ---
the knight Reinhard van Astrea.
[05:22] Felt
Hang on! Don't get the wrong idea!
[05:25] Felt
I never said I'd be the next ruler...
[05:28] Felt
Who'd want to be in a royal selection?!
[05:30] Marcos
Are you saying you withdraw
from the selection?
[05:34] Felt
Damn right I am!
[05:35] Rickert
This is a joke!
[05:36] Rickert
I've overlooked this because
the situation is dire,
[05:39] Rickert
but to drag it out this long is senseless!
[05:42] Bordeaux
He's right.
[05:43] ---
The Astrea family offers
a gutter rat to rule us,
[05:46] Bordeaux
while Margrave Mathers endorses
a half-devil? Utter foolishness!
[05:49] Roswaal
It isn't at all nice to call
a half-elf a "half-devil."
[05:54] Bordeaux
That silver-haired half-devil
[05:56] Bordeaux
matches the Jealous Witch's appearance,
as described for generations!
[06:00] Bordeaux
Why do you not realize that even allowing
her in the throne room is dreadful?
[06:04] Bordeaux
Filthy woman!
[06:07] Subaru
Enough of your crap!
[06:16] Emilia
Subaru, it's all right! Stop this!
[06:18] Subaru
I will not stop!
[06:20] Subaru
You people are full of crap!
[06:22] ---
Apologize to Emilia—
[06:23] Emilia
Subaru!
[06:26] Emilia
Allow me to formally introduce myself
to the honored council of elders.
[06:30] Emilia
My name is Emilia.
[06:33] Emilia
I am accompanied by Puck, a great
spirit who controls fire,
[06:36] Emilia
and I am a silver-haired half-elf.
[06:38] All
A great spirit?
[06:42] Emilia
I understand that my half-elf lineage,
[06:44] Emilia
and other similarities to the witch,
subject me to prejudice.
[06:48] Emilia
However...
[06:50] Emilia
I adamantly refuse to let all my potential
be plucked out simply for that reason.
[06:57] Subaru
Emilia...
[06:59] Miklotov
By the way...
[07:01] Miklotov
What, exactly, is that young man's position?
[07:05] Emilia
Huh? Um, well, he's...
[07:07] Subaru
It's okay, Emilia. I've made up my mind, too.
[07:11] Emilia
Your mind? To do what?
[07:13] Emilia
Hey, Subaru, what are you going to do?
[07:16] Emilia
Wait!
[07:18] Subaru
Nice to meet you, members of
the council of elders.
[07:22] Subaru
My name is Natsuki Subaru.
[07:24] Subaru
I am a manservant in Roswaal's mansion,
and I serve as this candidate's...
[07:28] Subaru
Emilia-sama's best knight!
[07:34] Miklotov
Hmm, a knight, is he?
[07:37] Roswaal
Ah, he knows little of our world...
[07:41] Julius
Forgive me for interrupting,
[07:44] Julius
but there is something I must ask him...
[07:48] Julius
If you truly proclaim yourself
to be Emilia-sama's knight.
[07:53] Subaru
What do you mean by that?
[07:55] Julius
You just declared that you are a knight.
[08:00] Julius
And you did so here, audaciously,
before the Knights of Lugunica!
[08:08] Subaru
That was pretty well-coordinated...
[08:10] Subaru
Did you guys practice that for this meeting?
[08:13] Julius
Of course.
[08:14] ---
To make known to all the
dignity of our empire,
[08:16] Julius
we are highly conscious of
our identities every day.
[08:19] Julius
Do you have the resolve to match that?
[08:25] Subaru
I want to make Emilia-sama the ruler...
[08:28] Subaru
No, I will make her the ruler!
[08:29] Julius
And you believe you have the
resolve and strength for that?
[08:34] Subaru
I don't have anything as grand as resolve,
[08:36] Subaru
and I'm well aware that I lack strength.
[08:38] Subaru
But I'm going to make Emilia the ruler!
[08:42] Subaru
I'm going to make her wish come true!
[08:45] Julius
Do you not feel that your answer
is too arrogant by far?
[08:50] Julius
Weakness is something to feel
shame, not pride, about.
[08:54] Julius
To earn the right to stand here,
have you worked hard?
[08:58] Julius
Have you done enough service to shame us,
[09:01] ---
the Imperial Knights?
[09:04] Subaru
I'm still going to make Emilia the ruler!
[09:08] Julius
I fail to understand...
[09:10] Julius
After being so denied,
[09:12] ---
why do you continue to stand here?
[09:19] Subaru
Because she's special!
[09:25] Julius
I understand and accept your
reason for standing there.
[09:28] Julius
But I do not think I can
acknowledge you as a knight.
[09:33] Subaru
What are you...
[09:36] Julius
Anyone who inspires such an expression
[09:39] Julius
on the face of one they wish to
stand beside, cannot be a knight.
[09:46] Subaru
I-Is being a knight that big a deal?
[09:50] Subaru
You just happened to be born into the job!
[09:52] Subaru
Don't act like a big-shot
with your daddy's name!
[09:54] Julius
Natsuki Subaru,
[09:56] Julius
that is not a beautiful look.
[10:04] Emilia
That's enough, Subaru.
[10:09] Emilia
I am deeply sorry to waste your time.
[10:11] Emilia
I will make him stand down.
[10:16] Miklotov
Emilia-sama,
[10:17] Miklotov
if nothing else, he has shown us all
that you are not one to be feared.
[10:24] Miklotov
You have a fine attendant.
[10:26] Emilia
Subaru is
[10:28] Emilia
not my attendant.
[10:35] Marcos
Natsuki Subaru-dono, please leave the room.
[10:45] Marcos
Now, let us discuss how the royal
selection will proceed.
[10:51] Marcos
What's going on?!
[10:58] Felt
What are you doing?
[11:04] Felt
Old Man Rom!
[11:11] Marcos
I don't know who you are,
[11:13] Marcos
but for stealing into
the castle, you must die.
[11:16] Felt
Stop! Let him go!
[11:18] Marcos
Unfortunately, I cannot comply.
[11:21] Marcos
You have publicly declared that
[11:22] Marcos
you have no intention of participating
in the royal selection.
[11:27] Marcos
I am not obligated to obey your orders.
[11:38] Felt
Fine...
[11:40] Felt
I'll do your stupid royal selection!
[11:42] Felt
You want me to try to be
the next ruler, right?
[11:46] Rom
Wh-What're you sayin', Felt?
[11:48] Felt
That old man is my family,
[11:51] Felt
so release him now.
[11:53] ---
Treat him with care!
[11:54] Marcos
Very well.
[11:56] Rom
Felt... I...
[11:59] Felt
We'll talk later, Old Man Rom.
[12:06] Felt
Hey, Reinhard,
[12:08] Felt
was this all part of your plan, too?
[12:11] Reinhard
Certainly not.
[12:13] ---
This was something far greater,
guided by fate.
[12:17] Felt
Are you a slave to fate or something?
[12:20] Reinhard
No.
[12:21] Reinhard
From now on, I am your knight.
[12:25] Felt
Fine, then.
[12:26] Felt
I'll work you to death.
[12:30] Miklotov
Anyway, Felt-sama and her knight, Reinhard,
[12:33] Miklotov
may we conclude that you both intend
to participate in the royal selection?
[12:38] Felt
Sure, I'm in.
[12:40] ---
But let me just say one thing.
[12:43] Felt
I hate the nobility!
[12:45] Felt
I hate knights!
[12:48] Felt
I hate this kingdom!
[12:50] Felt
I hate everything about it!
[12:53] Felt
So I'm planning to tear it all down!
[12:57] Felt
How about that?
[12:59] Rickert
Wh-What are you saying?
[13:03] Felt
If I become the next ruler,
[13:04] ---
I'll destroy everything! I'll take
down every last one of you,
[13:09] Felt
and bring a little fresh
air into this country!
[13:13] Miklotov
Your mistress is quite an intense lady.
[13:17] Reingard
One day, Felt-sama's words
will reach everyone's ears.
[13:23] Miklotov
In any case,
[13:24] Miklotov
all of the candidates are finally here.
[13:30] Miklotov
The royal selection will now begin!
[13:36] Reinhard
And so, the royal selection
has finally begun, Subaru.
[13:40] Felix
Subaru-kyun, you're Emilia-sama's
knight nyow, aren't you?
[13:44] Felix
Let's both do our best.
[13:46] Julius
Forgive me for interrupting.
[13:49] Subaru
Why the hell are you here?!
[13:52] Julius
I wish you would not make
such an unpleasant face.
[13:55] Julius
I didn't expect you to warmly welcome me,
[13:58] Julius
but if you take that attitude—
[14:00] Subaru
If I do, then what?
[14:02] Julius
It will call into question the respectability
of those in your company.
[14:06] Julius
Do be careful.
[14:09] Julius
Now, you asked me why
I was here, did you not?
[14:14] Julius
I came to see you, of course.
[14:17] Julius
I would like you to come with me for a bit.
[14:25] Reinhard
Julius, you shouldn't do this.
[14:27] ---
It isn't like you.
[14:28] Julius
He insulted us, the knights, before the
candidates to be our future ruler.
[14:33] Julius
And he mocked the chivalry we practice.
[14:36] Reinhard
I admit that he said some
things that went too far.
[14:40] Reinhard
But for such a matter, he need
only be warned and corrected.
[14:44] Julius
No, this is not only my problem.
[14:48] Julius
I hereby administer
[14:49] Julius
the death penalty to this insubordinate man,
who sullied the knighthood's honor!
[14:55] Julius
Normally, it wouldn't be unusual
for you to be slain for insolence.
[14:59] Julius
However, much to my dismay,
you are Emilia-sama's attendant.
[15:03] Julius
Therefore, we will fight using wooden swords.
[15:08] Julius
Shall we begin?
[15:11] Subaru
Sure, I'm not gonna hold back!
[15:23] Julius
It appears you truly have no pride.
[15:27] Julius
What a simple, vulgar way to live.
[15:36] Knight
Reporting!
[15:38] Knight
Knights Julius and Natsuki Subaru-dono
are having a mock battle
[15:41] Knight
with wooden swords in the training ring!
[15:44] Emilia
How did that happen? I have to—
[15:47] Anastasia
I just wanna know one thing...
[15:49] Anastasia
Which one of 'em issued the challenge?
[15:52] Knight
I'm told it was the knight Julius.
[15:54] Knight
Natsuki Subaru-dono accepted,
[15:57] ---
leading to this fight.
[15:58] Anastasia
Well, I'm against stopping them, then.
[16:01] Emilia
But your knight and my,
um... friend are fighting.
[16:06] Emilia
Aren't you worried?
[16:07] Anastasia
Worried? About what?
[16:09] Anastasia
That Julius will go too far,
[16:11] ---
and I'll have to pay for your boy's treatment?
[16:14] Crusch
If it is a question of the mock battle,
[16:16] Crusch
I cannot agree with stopping
it before they finish, either.
[16:19] Felt
If they're just duking it out,
[16:21] Felt
you could've waited until it ended
and told us who won.
[16:23] Knight
Yes, ma'am! But the fight was, well...
[16:26] Knight
It was just so one-sided, I...
[16:29] Emilia
I have to stop it!
[16:31] Al
We should go, too.
[16:32] Al
You like to watch vicious beasts torment
weak creatures, don't you?
[16:37] Al
Don't misjudge me with your
unfounded imaginings, Al...
[16:41] Priscilla
But yes, I do love that.
[16:46] Julius
Why don't you admit that you
have reached your limit?
[16:50] Julius
I'm sure you have now realized,
to a painful extent,
[16:53] Julius
just what the knights that you insulted,
and made light of, really are!
[17:02] Julius
I believe continuing would endanger your life.
[17:05] Subaru
Damn it.
[17:06] Subaru
I'll break...
[17:09] Subaru
that nose of yours.
[17:11] Subaru
I'll crush you.
[17:17] Emilia
Subaru!
[17:20] Emilia
Don't, Subaru!
[17:21] Subaru
Shamac!
[17:29] Julius
This was the ace up your sleeve?
[17:33] Julius
Your skill level is far too low.
[17:35] JUlius
Such low-level magic
[17:37] ---
will only work on unintelligent beasts!
[17:42] Julius
You are irredeemably powerless.
[17:45] Julius
You are not worthy to stand at her side.
[17:48] Emilia
Subaru!
[18:02] Subaru
So I didn't die...
[18:08] Emilia
Subaru.
[18:09] Subaru
That talk with the royal candidates...
[18:11] Emilia
Subaru.
[18:13] Subaru
I see.
[18:14] ---
Then let's head straight back.
[18:16] Subaru
We need to work out a plan for the selec—
[18:18] Emilia
Subaru.
[18:20] Emilia
Let's talk, okay?
[18:23] Emilia
I have some things I want to ask you.
[18:26] Emilia
A lot of things.
[18:29] Subaru
Yeah, I guess you do...
[18:31] Emilia
Why did you end up, well, fighting Julius?
[18:35] Emilia
There must have been a reason, right?
[18:38] Emilia
Knowing you, it must've been important—
[18:40] Subaru
I wanted to get him back!
[18:42] Emilia
Huh?
[18:43] Subaru
I was being stubborn.
[18:45] Subaru
He said I was pathetic, powerless,
and unworthy of you.
[18:49] Subaru
He was trying to distance me
from you, and I hated it.
[18:53] Subaru
That's why I fought him.
[18:55] Emilia
Just for that?
[18:59] Subaru
Emilia-tan...
[19:02] Subaru
Emilia, you wouldn't understand.
[19:06] Emilia
I see.
[19:07] Emilia
Roswaal and I will return to
the mansion tomorrow.
[19:11] Emilia
You will stay in the capital to recover.
[19:14] Subaru
Wait a minute.
[19:15] Subaru
Huh?
[19:16] Emilia
Wasn't that our agreement?
[19:17] Subaru
But wait a—
[19:19] Emilia
You came to the capital so Felis
could heal your exhausted gate.
[19:23] Subaru
No, wait a minute!
[19:25] ---
How can you suddenly... I...
[19:27] Emilia
Because...
[19:30] Emilia
When I'm with you, you always push
yourself to do the impossible.
[19:34] Subaru
That's not what I'm saying... I just—
[19:37] Emilia
"Just"?
[19:39] Subaru
I just wanted to do something for you, so I...
[19:43] Emilia
For me?
[19:48] Emilia
It was for you, wasn't it?
[19:51] Subaru
No... I just wanted to do something for you—
[19:58] Emilia
Stop telling lies about how
everything is for my sake!
[20:04] Emilia
Coming to the castle,
fighting Julius, using magic...
[20:09] Emilia
Are you saying that was all for me?
[20:11] Emilia
I never asked you to do any of that!
[20:14] Emilia
Hey, do you remember
what I asked you to do?
[20:19] Subaru
I...
[20:20] Emilia
I asked you to wait at the lodging with Rem.
[20:24] Emilia
I asked you not to use magic because
using more would endanger you.
[20:29] Subaru
I'm sorry I didn't do as you asked.
[20:32] Subaru
B-But you're wrong. You're wrong!
[20:34] Subaru
I... I didn't do it for myself.
[20:39] Subaru
You won't believe me, Emilia?
[20:44] Emilia
I want to.
[20:46] ---
I want to believe you, Subaru.
[20:48] Emilia
I want to...
[20:50] Emilia
But you're the one who won't
give me a reason to!
[20:57] Emilia
You promised me...
[21:00] Emilia
But just like that, you threw it away,
and came all the way here!
[21:05] Emilia
You won't keep your promise to me,
[21:08] Emilia
and you ask me to believe you?
[21:12] Emilia
I can't do that! I can't!
[21:18] Emilia
Hey, Subaru...
[21:19] Emilia
Why do you keep trying to help me like this?
[21:24] Subaru
Because you helped me...
[21:28] Emilia
I... helped you?
[21:31] Subaru
Yes.
[21:34] Subaru
You don't even realize
[21:36] ---
how the things you've done
for me have saved me.
[21:40] Emilia
No, I don't, Subaru.
[21:43] Subaru
I don't expect you to...
[21:45] Subaru
But it's true! You saved me!
[21:48] Subaru
So everything I've done has been to repay you.
[21:51] Emilia
I told you, I don't understand!
[21:54] Subaru
Maybe you don't, but please listen to me!
[21:58] Subaru
It's the truth!
[22:00] Subaru
You were the...
[22:01] Subaru
When I first came to this world, you were—
[22:07] Emilia
Once again, you won't tell me anything.
[22:11] Subaru
Why won't you understand?
[22:15] Subaru
I thought
[22:16] Subaru
if anyone could understand...
[22:19] Subaru
it'd be you.
[22:21] Emilia
The version of me that lives within
you must be amazing.
[22:26] Emilia
She can understand everything,
[22:28] ---
even if you don't explain it to her.
[22:31] Emilia
She can feel all your pain, sadness,
and anger as her own.
[22:39] Emilia
I can't understand if you
don't tell me, Subaru.
[22:46] Subaru
I've...
[22:49] Subaru
All this time,
[22:52] Subaru
haven't I made everything work out all right?!
[22:56] Subaru
When your insignia was stolen, I saved you
from an insane killer at the loot house!
[23:00] Subaru
I risked my life!
[23:02] Subaru
All because you were important to me!
[23:04] Subaru
At the mansion, too.
[23:06] Subaru
Things worked out because of me.
[23:07] Subaru
Without me, it would've been a lot worse.
[23:10] Subaru
All of it, all of it, all of it!
[23:12] Subaru
All of it was because I was there!
[23:15] Subaru
You should have a greater debt to me
than you could ever repay!
[23:21] Emilia
You're right.
[23:23] Emilia
I owe you so many debts, Subaru.
[23:29] Subaru
Yeah, that's right! That's why I...
[23:33] Emilia
So I'll repay all of them now.
[23:37] Emilia
And we'll end this.
[23:42] Emilia
You've done enough, Natsuki Subaru.
[23:46] Emilia
You know, I had hopes for you.
[23:51] Emilia
I thought maybe you...
[23:53] ---
That only you wouldn't give
me special treatment.
[23:57] Emilia
That you'd look at me
[23:59] Emilia
in the same, exact way you
look at everyone else.
[24:04] Subaru
I can't do that.
[24:07] Subaru
I can't look at you the way I look at others.
[24:12] Subaru
It's impossible.
