[00:03] Stu
    Did you finish that assignment?
[00:05] Stu
    Let's grab cutlet sandwiches after class.
[00:08] Stu
    It's the student council president!
[00:09] Ell
    President Faria!
[00:11] Ell
    I need to submit the documentation
    to the Railroad Committee.
[00:14] Far
    Sorry to make you handle
    all the paperwork, Ellen.
[00:17] Ell
    Oh, not at all!
[00:19] Ell
    I much prefer routine work.
[00:22] Nemo
    Documentation?
[00:24] Faria
    Because we destroyed the train.
[00:26] Nemo
    Are you in trouble?
[00:28] Far
    Listen to me.
[00:30] Far
    It was a small price to pay for you, Nemo.
[00:34] Far
    There's nothing more
    valuable than human life.
[00:39] Jo
    Incoming, incoming!
[00:40] Jo
    Clear the way!
[00:46] Jo
    Hey there, President.
[00:48] Far
    Jou, that cart...
[00:50] Jo
    Oh, this is the Physis dragon
    that was ravaging Midland.
[00:54] Jo
    Eatin' people, burnin' forests...
[00:57] Nemo
    Physis?
[00:58] Fari
    This dragon serves them.
[01:01] Nemo
    You took care of it yourself?
[01:04] Jo
    Sure did! It was easy, too.
[01:08] Far
    This is Jou Tsurugi.
[01:11] Far
    Successor to Spike, the hero
    with a heart of blazing ice.
[01:16] Jo
    That makes me the strongest
    of the Seven Knights.
[01:21] Nemo
    But... isn't this a living thing, too?
[01:25] Jo
    It serves Physis.
[01:27] Jo
    There's no telling how many
    thousands it's killed.
[01:30] Nemo
    Oh, yeah. I guess you're right.
[01:34] Nemo
    I'm sorry.
[01:34] Jo
    Now make way.
[01:36] Jo
    Gotta get this to the Alchemy Research
     Institute for testing before it thaws.
[01:42] Jo
    Okay, I'm off! Here I go!
[01:48] Nemo
    He's quite something, isn't he?
[01:50] Fa
    He's a member of our student
    council, the Seven Knights.
[01:54] Nemo
    The Seven Knights...
[03:34] Sign
    Chance Encounter -Granseed-
[03:43] Gar
    An emergency meeting implies trouble afoot.
[03:47] Gar
    Have you heard anything, Shirley?
[03:50] Shir
    No. I suspect it's another of our
    president's trademark whims, Gareth.
[03:54] Girl
    Our president's such a slavedriver.
[03:58] Gar
    This is about the recent increase
    in Physis activity, I suppose.
[04:01] Jo
    Gildan, you mind?
[04:03] Gil
    Go for it!
[04:04] Jo
    Thanks.
[04:06] Shir
    Show some table manners.
[04:09] Jo
    Food tastes better when
    you eat with your hands!
[04:17] Fa
    I see we're all present.
[04:20] Gar
    Who's the human?
[04:22] Nemo
    U-Um...
[04:24] Jo
    Say, I know you!
[04:26] Far
    Allow me to introduce you.
[04:28] Far
    This is Nemo.
[04:29] Far
    He's just come to Granseed.
[04:32] Far
    He's a new student, and the latest
    member of the Seven Knights.
[04:38] Jo
    A new member?!
[04:40] Gil
    No way!
[04:41] Shir
    President.
[04:42] Shir
    This is no joking matter.
[04:44] Shir
    The Seven Knights are—
[04:46] Far
    The greatest of Granseed's successors,
[04:49] Far
    and the protectors of the world.
[04:51] Gar
    And you believe this distracted
    young man is worthy of the name?
[04:56] Shir
    Unacceptable.
[04:58] Shir
    A new student with
    no practical battle experience?
[05:01] Shir
    Ellen, why didn't you put a stop to this?
[05:04] El
    You know me. I like to go with the flow.
[05:09] El
    I defer completely to
    the president on such matters.
[05:12] Jo
    I'm with Shirley.
[05:14] Jo
    C'mon! A man's only as good as his muscles!
[05:17] Jo
    You need a finely honed vessel
    for a hero to dwell in!
[05:22] Jo
    Right, Gildan? Gareth?
[05:24] Jo
    You agree, don't you?
[05:25] Gil
    Y-Yeah, I dunno...
    I'm not much for muscles myself.
[05:30] Gar
    Elves place little value on musculature.
[05:33] Jo
    Sheesh, you guys are no fun!
[05:35] Shir
    My objection stands, President.
[05:38] Far
    I understand your concerns.
[05:40] Far
    But he managed to contract with
    a hero during his first time in action.
[05:46] Gar
    Can that be?
[05:48] Shir
    Impossible.
[05:49] Shir
    Without any training or guidance?
[05:51] Far
    Ellen and I can attest to it.
[05:54] Gil
    Pretty cool if it's true!
[05:56] Jo
    No way. Gotta be some kind of trick.
[05:59] Gar
    So, what hero did you contract with?
[06:04] Nemo
    I'm not sure.
[06:06] Gar
    You're not sure?
[06:07] Gar
    We converse with our heroes
    to receive their power.
[06:11] Gar
    You can't contract with one
    without knowing who it is.
[06:14] Nemo
    I heard his voice,
    but I don't know his identity.
[06:17] Jo
    Hey, is this guy loopy or somethin'?
[06:20] Far
    I understand your unease.
[06:22] Far
    But my hero, Lady Eunomia,
    told me to have faith in him.
[06:28] Far
    I trust Lady Eunomia.
[06:30] Far
    And I believe in Nemo.
[06:34] Shir
    Well, if you're that insistent...
[06:38] Far
    Jou, show him around the academy, won't you?
[06:42] Jo
    Me?!
[06:44] Far
    You're such so influential,
    with friends all over the school.
[06:48] Far
    You're also the council's best warrior
[06:51] Far
    and immensely popular
    with the younger students.
[06:53] Jo
    Yeah, fair. Can't argue with facts.
[06:56] Far
    So I thought you'd make
     a great caretaker for Nemo.
[07:00] Jo
    Fine, leave him to me!
[07:04] Jo
    Well, I said that to sound cool, but...
[07:06] Jo
    Jeez, what a lousy errand.
[07:10] Nero
    Sorry you got stuck dealing
     with a nobody like me...
[07:14] Jo
    Who're you callin' a nobody?
[07:16] Jo
    Hey!
[07:19] Jo
    Listen here!
[07:20] Jo
    The Seven Knights are the
    pinnacle of this academy!
[07:22] Jo
    Its ultimate warriors!
[07:23] Jo
    Now that you're one of us,
[07:25] Jo
    I don't wanna hear any more "nobody" talk!
[07:28] Nero
    I'm sorry.
[07:29] Nero
    It just doesn't feel real to me...
[07:35] Jo
    Look.
[07:37] Jo
    The original Seven Knights.
    The heroes of legend.
[07:41] Nemo
    Those are...
[07:42] Jo
    We've inherited their power.
[07:46] Jo
    We're duty-bound to become worthy of them.
[07:49] Nemo
    And use that power... to protect people?
[07:52] Jo
    That's right! That's why
    I work hard to get stronger!
[07:56] Jo
    I'd gladly throw my life away
    to defend the world from Physis!
[08:00] Nemo
    That doesn't sound right.
[08:03] Nemo
    If you and the enemy both die...
[08:07] Nemo
    How do you protect people that way?
[08:11] Jo
    The hell did you say?
[08:13] So
    My, I see we're all having fun here.
[08:22] So
    You must be Nemo, I presume?
[08:24] So
    I'm told you heard the voice of the
    goddess and made your own hero card.
[08:29] Nemo
    It's all kind of a blur...
[08:32] Nemo
    Who are you?
[08:34] So
    I am Sophitia. I serve
    as the academy librarian.
[08:38] Nemo
    The librarian?
[08:40] So
    The academy library contains
    the memories of the heroes of old.
[08:47] So
    After undergoing intense training,
    our students make contracts with their cards
[08:52] So
    and gain the power to fuse
    with a hero for combat.
[08:55] So
    Such is the power of a successor.
[08:58] So
    But there are some who are guided
    to their cards by fate alone.
[09:04] So
    Just like you were.
[09:05] Nemo
    Guided by fate?
[09:09] So
    You might become a beacon of hope to others.
[09:13] Jo
    This guy?
[09:14] So
    Oh, that's right, Jou.
[09:16] So
    The Alchemy Research Institute was delighted.
[09:19] So
    They said your frozen dragon
    will make a magnificent sample.
[09:24] Jo
    I'm honored!
[09:26] So
    Now, do get along.
[09:28] Jo
    Yes, ma'am!
[09:36] Jo
    Boy, what an awesome day.
[09:39] Jo
    Miss Sophitia even talked to me...
[09:44] Jo
    Now, let's get this over with.
[09:46] Jo
    The cafeteria first!
[09:51] Nemo
    The Seven Knights...
[10:07] Jo
    And here's your dorm.
[10:09] Jo
    Whew, sweet freedom at last!
[10:12] Nemo
    Yeah. Thank you, Jou.
[10:15] Jo
    You're such a weirdo.
[10:17] Jo
    Get some rest already.
[10:25] Nemo
    Let's see...
[10:33] Nemo
    Faria?
[10:36] Far
    Welcome.
[10:56] Spi
    Do you feel anger toward that child?
[11:00] Jo
    Spike? Of course not.
[11:03] Spi
    Suppressed anger can be one's own undoing.
[11:07] Jo
    I just...
[11:10] Jo
    I just wanna be strong.
[11:20] Nemo
    Are we the only three people in this dorm?
[11:24] Far
    Yes.
[11:25] Far
    This is the student council dorm,
    so it's just us here.
[11:30] Nemo
    Just us?
[11:34] Nemo
    Is that... okay?
[11:36] Ell
    I'm also the president's
    personal valet, so I'm fine.
[11:40] Far
    Are you worried you're
    getting special treatment?
[11:43] Nemo
    Well... um...
[11:46] Nemo
    Kind of.
[11:48] Fari
    I have high hopes for you.
[11:50] Nemo
    High hopes?
[11:52] Far
    Yes.
[11:53] Nemo
    You really think I can make a contribution?
[11:56] Far
    Successors who make contracts
    outside of the library are special.
[12:02] Nemo
    When that happened...
    I was just following my instincts.
[12:07] Ell
    I was utterly useless.
[12:09] Far
    You must be feeling
    a lot of pressure right now.
[12:12] Far
    But I'm sure you'll find a way to contribute.
[12:17] Ins
    Long ago, in the age of distant legend,
[12:21] Ins
    there lived a group of heroes
    known as the Seven Knights.
[12:24] Ins
    They traveled the land,
    sometimes in harmony,
[12:28] Ins
    sometimes in conflict,
    competing to change the fate of the world.
[12:32] Ins
    And when Evil God Nestra tried
    to cast our world into darkness,
[12:37] Ins
    the heroes rose to the challenge
    of keeping us all safe.
[12:42] Ins
    You successors were chosen by the goddess...
[12:45] Nemo
    A way I can contribute?
[12:52] Girl
    How's that assignment going?
[12:54] Girl
    What assignment?
[12:55] Girl
    Wait, don't tell me...
[12:58] Gar
    The new student?
[13:00] Nemo
    I met you yesterday...
[13:03] Gar
    Gareth.
[13:04] Gar
    Gareth of the Winswald Clan.
[13:07] Gar
    I know... Could you take this to
    the Alchemy Research Institute?
[13:11] Nemo
    Sure... but why?
[13:14] Gar
    I'm not entirely comfortable there.
[13:16] Gar
    I'd appreciate it if you could.
[13:18] Nemo
    You got it.
[13:22] Gar
    He's awfully obedient.
[13:25] Gar
    Or is he just presenting that way?
[13:40] Cla
    Thank you so much!
[13:42] Cla
    Elf medicine is just the best!
[13:45] Nemo
    Well, I'm just the delivery boy...
[13:47] Cla
    Oh, don't say that!
[13:49] Cla
    You'll give my regards to Gareth, won't you?
[13:52] Nemo
    Sure thing.
[13:53] Cla
    Oh, Gareth is just the coolest!
[13:56] Cla
    Don't you know, don't you know?
[13:58] Cla
    He's Granseed's most cuddleable boy!
[14:02] Cla
    You know what I'm saying?!
[14:06] Nemo
    I do! I do! I think...
[14:09] Jo
    Gosh dern. Keep it down already, Claire.
[14:13] Jo
    You again?
[14:14] Nemo
    Jou!
[14:16] Jo
    Hey, being an errand-boy suits you.
[14:20] Nemo
    Yeah, I was thinking that, too.
[14:24] Jo
    Have a little self-respect, man...
[14:29] Jo
    What was that?
[14:30] Nemo
    An explosion?
[14:31] Cla
    It came from the warehouse!
[14:33] Jou
    Oh, crap!
[14:41] Jou
    Damn it!
[14:42] Jou
    I thought I took that thing out!
[14:45] Jou
    What did you guys do to it?
[14:46] Cla
    Nothing!
[14:48] Cla
    It was frozen solid!
[14:49] Nemo
    Look!
[14:52] Jo
    Miss Sophitia!
[14:53] Nemo
    We have to save her!
[14:54] Jo
    No kiddin'!
[14:55] Jo
    Spike, Master of Cold!
[14:57] Jo
    Grant me your power!
[14:58] Jo
    Succession!
[15:01] Jo
    Roar, Ice Blade!
[15:08] Nemo
    Wow!
[15:09] Nemo
    Now that's what you call an ice-cold strike!
[15:13] Nemo
    There's nothin' I can't freeze!
[15:17] Nemo
    Miss Sophitia!
[15:18] Sof
    Thank you, Jou.
[15:19] Sof
    The Seven Knights truly are amazing.
[15:22] Jo
    N-Not at all!
[15:23] Jo
    There is still lots more to be done!
[15:24] Jo
    New kid! You take Miss Sophitia
     and the others somewhere safe.
[15:28] Nemo
    Got it.
[15:30] Jo
    No urgency at all, huh?
[15:32] Jo
    I don't like that guy.
[15:36] Jo
    I beat you already! Take a hint, man!
[15:42] Jo
    Die!
[15:55] Jo
    Well? Ready to stay dead yet?
[16:02] Jo
    What?!
[16:08] Jo
    Is that...
[16:09] Spi
    The power of Physis.
[16:11] Spi
    Be careful. It's far stronger than before.
[16:23] Jou
    I've still got this!
[16:29] Jou
    Snowfield Slash!
[16:44] Jou
    Damn it...
[16:45] Nemo
    Jou!
[16:46] Jou
    New kid!
[16:48] Jou
    This one's trouble.
[16:49] Jou
    Get the president here—and fast!
[16:51] Jou
    I'll hold it back!
[16:53] Nemo
    You need to get out of here, too!
[16:55] Jo
    Don't be stupid!
[16:57] Jo
    If I leave, it'll head out into the city.
[16:59] Jo
    Then the damage'll only get worse.
[17:05] Nemo
    But... who's going to protect you?
[17:08] ---
    What?
[17:09] Nemo
    Faria told me that there's nothing
     more valuable than human life.
[17:12] Nemo
    So yours is worth protecting, too!
[17:17] Jo
    Shut up!
[17:18] Jo
    That's no reason for me to back down...
[17:21] Jo
    Or are you offering to contribute somehow?!
[17:26] Nemo
    I'll try!
[17:26] Jo
    What?
[17:28] Nemo
    Succession!
[17:53] Ell
    My goodness!
[18:00] Jo
    You stupid idiot!
[18:02] Jo
    You don't have the muscles
    for that! Fall back!
[18:04] Nemo
    Now! Freeze it over!
[18:08] Nemo
    You said you could freeze anything, right?!
[18:10] Jo
    You stupid little... Fine! It's your funeral!
[18:14] Nemo
    There! Aim for the wound!
[18:20] Jo
    Soul of Spike, respond to my anger!
[18:23] Jo
    Freeze everything in your path!
[18:26] Spi
    I hear and obey! Burn, my icy heart!
[18:29] Spi
    Turn this place into a frozen hell!
[18:49] Jo
    Hey, idiot! Get away! You've done enough!
[18:53] Nemo
    I can't! If I let go now...
[18:55] Jo
    Listen to me, damn it!
[18:57] Nemo
    Almost there! I'm almost there!
[19:00] Nemo
    I have to stop this!
[19:02] Jen
    That's right.
[19:06] Jen
    This is a life twisted by Physis.
[19:08] Jen
    It dies, yet continues to move without life.
[19:14] Nemo
    A life... without life?
[19:18] Jen
    End this tragedy.
[19:20] Nemo
    Faria saved my life.
[19:24] Nemo
    So this time...
[19:31] Sof
    Is that...
[19:42] Spi
    Do you see, Jou? That's its core.
[19:45] Spi
    That's what allows its body to regenerate.
[19:48] Jo
    Leave it to me.
[19:49] Jo
    I'll smash it to bits!
[20:21] Jo
    A long time ago...
[20:23] Jo
    the city where I lived was
    attacked by Physis's monsters.
[20:28] Jo
    My dad was a successor.
[20:30] Jo
    He stood against them all alone
[20:34] Jo
    and died protecting the city.
[20:37] Jo
    I want to be strong. Like my dad.
[20:43] Nemo
    You want to protect people too.
[20:47] Jo
    I got stronger to do exactly that.
[20:50] Jo
    But I can still get stronger...
[20:54] Nemo
    Jou...
[20:56] Jo
    ...so long as I'm with a gutsy punk like you.
[21:01] Jo
    Oh, come on! You don't
    wanna hang out with me?
[21:07] Nemo
    Of course I do.
[21:09] Nemo
    Thank you.
[21:11] Nemo
    I'm happy to have you, Jou.
[21:16] Sof
    He might just save us all.
[22:03] Sof
    This concludes the report from
    the Alchemy Research Institute.
[22:07] Sof
    Fortunately, there were no casualties,
[22:09] Sof
    but we recovered little data.
[22:12] Far
    We'll consider no loss of life a victory.
[22:15] Far
    President, I want to ask you something.
[22:19] Far
    About Nemo?
[22:22] Far
    He's too naive and vulnerable.
[22:25] Far
    He should at least start basic training.
[22:28] Far
    In all truth, I'm a bit afraid of his power.
[22:33] Shi
    Afraid?
[22:35] Far
    I think he's a very kind person himself.
[22:40] Far
    But that power...
[22:44] Shi
    President, do you intend to monitor Nemo?
[22:47] Far
    That's the board's inclination,
    but... I worry.
[22:52] Far
    I'm afraid he might be
    swallowed by that power.
[22:57] Shi
    Which is why you put him in that dorm?
[23:00] Fa
    Just in case.
[23:02] Shi
    The disciplinary board won't interfere, then.
[23:07] Shi
    Excuse me.
[23:14] Far
    I want to believe in Nemo, Lady Eunomia.
[23:25] Far
    The monsters grow stronger every day.
[23:28] Far
    What we need is the power of more heroes.
[23:30] Far
    I'm doing my best, of course...
[23:32] Far
    But it's important to get results!
[23:34] Sign
    Hero -Seven Knights-
[23:35] Far
    Next time on Seven Knights...
[23:36] Far
    Do you kill those who don't get results?
