[00:13] ---
A sound "soul"
[00:16] ---
dwells within a sound mind
[00:18] ---
and a sound body.
[00:33] ---
He's all yours.
[00:35] ---
Be careful. Don't do anything reckless.
[00:38] ---
Yeah.
[00:38] ---
If you get in trouble, call for me!
I'll come to help your sorry butt!
[00:44] ---
Okay, I get it. Just go already.
[00:48] ---
Let's do it, Maka!
[00:50] ---
Yeah!
[00:52] ---
Tsubaki! We're going after Kid's group!
[00:54] ---
Right!
[00:55] ---
I won't let you...
[00:57] ---
Speed☆Star!
[00:59] ---
Above?!
[00:59] ---
So long, Demon Sword!
[01:01] ---
That's fine. It's easier to
interact with people from behind.
[01:06] ---
Die, okay?
[01:07] ---
No, you don't!
[01:10] ---
Y-You're in my way!
[01:13] ---
Keep him off guard!
[01:14] ---
His hardened blood
protects against cutting attacks,
[01:17] ---
so it's best to focus on
impact strikes instead!
[01:19] ---
Our goal is to stop him here!
[01:21] ---
A left rush after a Scythe Catch!
[01:29] ---
He's so hard! It's like I'm punching lead!
[01:34] ---
Crona! Forget the brat that ran off!
Focus on the girl in front of you!
[01:44] ---
Have a nice flight, you dumbass!
[01:46] ---
This is insane... I'm
suddenly all beat up...
[01:50] ---
I don't know how I'm supposed
to interact with a wily girl like that.
[01:54] ---
Kill her.
[01:55] ---
Yeah.
[01:57] ---
For argument's sake, let's
assume that your first attack went well.
[02:01] ---
But you just picked a
fight with the Demon Sword.
[02:03] ---
Do you have any chance of winning?
[02:05] ---
Or should I say, you
definitely have a chance, right?
[02:08] ---
Nope, not really.
[02:15] ---
You're so smart, yet you're so stupid!
[02:18] ---
This is great! You're definitely
the coolest partner ever!
[02:24] ---
Well, you'll manage somehow.
[02:27] ---
Yeah, I'll manage somehow.
[02:29] ---
Don't be stupid!
[02:32] ---
You ain't gonna "manage" anything!
[02:34] ---
Have you forgotten that
time Crona cut you up?!
[02:40] ---
It's so damn annoying!
[02:42] ---
Eating the soul of a small fry
like you amounts to nothing at all!
[02:46] ---
That star kid a minute
ago looked way tastier!
[02:50] ---
You unappealing, useless little brat!
[02:54] ---
I'm gonna harass you!
That's the only choice there is!
[02:57] ---
Hurray!
[02:58] ---
Huh?!
[02:59] ---
You finally see me.
[03:02] ---
When we last fought, you
only thought of me as food.
[03:07] ---
This time, you see me as a person.
[03:09] ---
Hence, "Hurray!"
[03:11] ---
As for your meister...
[03:13] ---
You're always scared and nervous! Face me!
[03:16] ---
Leave me alone.
[03:18] ---
For someone so weak, you
don't understand...
[03:21] ---
You'll get cut up again.
[03:23] ---
Why do you even bother
clashing with me head-on?
[03:29] ---
S-Stop. I can't look directly at
people like you with big, strong eyes.
[03:37] ---
It's true that I'm weaker than you.
But I don't sense I'm going to lose.
[03:41] ---
After all, your soul isn't
stronger than mine!
[03:46] ---
Prattle all you want! No one
will hear your howls as a loser!
[03:52] ---
What's the matter? Are
you a little ticked off?
[03:56] ---
I'm Maka, a scythe meister.
What's your name?
[04:00] ---
Demon Swordsman Crona.
[04:02] ---
I challenge you, Crona!
[04:04] ---
Oh? That's a good look in your eyes.
[04:06] ---
Maka... So that's the name
of the person in front of me...
[04:32] ---
If the lamps of linked souls
[04:35] ---
point to your heart,
[04:38] ---
do you hear the echoes now,
[04:41] ---
stronger than words?
[04:55] ---
We barely ever look each other in the eye,
[04:58] ---
yet our very fates are becoming entwined
[05:01] ---
Our destinations overlap completely,
[05:04] ---
so run with me through the slippery night
[05:07] ---
Though the glare that
comes from being too tenacious
[05:12] ---
may carry over into bad dreams
[05:19] ---
If the lamps of linked souls
[05:22] ---
point to your heart,
[05:24] ---
do you hear the echoes now,
[05:28] ---
stronger than words?
[05:31] ---
The reasons why we ever met don't matter
[05:33] ---
We are drawn together
[05:36] ---
The more we are hurt
in the moments we touch,
[05:39] ---
the clearer things become
[05:48] ---
Stein! What is this?!
[05:50] ---
Maka is fighting the Demon
Sword, against my instructions.
[05:54] ---
What?!
[05:57] ---
It looks like your adorable
little daughter has chosen to die.
[06:01] ---
My daughter isn't that weak.
[06:05] ---
Blind parental love...
[06:11] ---
"The Black Blood Resonance Battle! A Small
Soul's Grand Struggle Against Fear?"
[06:18] ---
Hey, Maka! Why are you
giving the enemy the will to fight?!
[06:22] ---
Okay?
[06:23] ---
Here goes.
[06:25] ---
Here it comes, Maka!
[06:26] ---
Bloody Slicer!
[06:32] ---
His solidified blood turned to liquid!
[06:35] ---
Bloody Needle!
[06:39] ---
This guy really means trouble!
[06:41] ---
Ragnarok...
[06:42] ---
Shut up!
[06:45] ---
Scream Resonance...
[06:50] ---
Why?!
[06:52] ---
Why are you collecting innocent
souls and heading for the Kishin?!
[06:56] ---
Because I'm scared.
[06:57] ---
I can learn how to interact
with things if I get strong.
[07:01] ---
Lady Medusa will abandon
me if I don't become a Kishin.
[07:05] ---
I'll stay afraid of everything
if I don't get stronger.
[07:08] ---
Screech α!
[07:11] ---
Bring it on!
[07:12] ---
Even if I'm weak or afraid,
I'll take whatever you got!
[07:16] ---
Crona!
[07:23] ---
May I ask you something?
[07:25] ---
Where did you abduct
the Demon Sword child from?
[07:29] ---
You tried to use the Demon Sword
to create a Kishin, didn't you?
[07:33] ---
Which begs the question, why
are you trying to revive this Kishin?
[07:37] ---
You've been disappointed
by the Demon Sword,
[07:40] ---
which gives no indication
of ever being a Kishin.
[07:42] ---
Which is why you're taking the great risk
[07:45] ---
of using black blood to wake a Kishin.
[07:49] ---
You don't need the child,
so what will you do with him?
[07:53] ---
Your experiment has failed. It'll
be the biggest news story of the year.
[08:01] ---
What is it? Did I say something funny?
[08:05] ---
You really are a cheeky boy.
[08:07] ---
It may look like a failure to you,
[08:11] ---
but all of my research
pertains to black blood.
[08:14] ---
And one other thing... You have it wrong.
[08:19] ---
I didn't "abduct" that child from anywhere.
[08:23] ---
Crona is my own child.
[08:26] ---
Whew...
[08:34] ---
You shouldn't have gotten back up...
[08:39] ---
Why are you so insistent on
fighting me? You're so weak...
[08:44] ---
Quit it. I don't know how
to interact with you.
[08:50] ---
He used a cut again!
[08:52] ---
Cutting attacks are bad against this guy!
[08:54] ---
The more cuts he gets,
the worse off we are!
[08:57] ---
But there is one thing we can do!
[09:00] ---
Yeah, that's true.
[09:02] ---
Let's do it, Maka!
[09:04] ---
Soul Resonance!
[09:13] ---
Hey! Crona!
[09:16] ---
Scream Resonance.
[09:22] ---
Let's up the resonance rate!
[09:29] ---
This resonance energy!
[09:31] ---
So, it's begun...
[09:40] ---
Witch Hunter!
[09:41] ---
Screech γ.
[09:46] ---
Hey, Stein! What's going on?!
[09:51] ---
The black blood has started to activate...
[10:06] ---
Figure-6 Hunter!
[10:10] ---
Letter-U Hunter!
[10:17] ---
Oh, is that all you have?
[10:20] ---
Really?
[10:25] ---
He deflected the Witch
Hunter with brute force alone?!
[10:27] ---
How can someone so scrawny be so strong?!
[10:30] ---
In this case, his physical
shape doesn't matter.
[10:34] ---
Ragnarok, the black blood
flowing in his body,
[10:37] ---
is linking with Crona's movements
to support his muscular power!
[10:40] ---
Now it's my turn.
[10:43] ---
Screech γ!
[10:45] ---
Waah! Stop! Stop! Waah!
[10:48] ---
Stop! No! No! No! No, no!
[10:50] ---
Don't make me cut your weapon now!
[10:54] ---
Soul!
[10:57] ---
Shut up! You stay out of this!
[11:00] ---
But at this rate, you'll be...!
[11:02] ---
Maka! Forget about that crap!
Just stay on guard!
[11:07] ---
Soul. You're talking crap,
too. Just give in already.
[11:13] ---
I'll make you stronger.
[11:22] ---
You all right, Soul?
[11:24] ---
Yeah.
[11:27] ---
What could it be? I almost have it...
[11:31] ---
It definitely felt like I wouldn't
lose to the Demon Sword.
[11:35] ---
It almost feels like I can grasp
something in Crona's wavelength...
[11:39] ---
But at this rate, it's no use.
[11:55] ---
Damn...
[11:58] ---
Are you afraid?
[12:05] ---
You remind me of it.
[12:07] ---
You're just like that little one
[12:10] ---
that I still don't know
how to interact with.
[12:15] ---
Now, defeat it, Crona.
[12:29] ---
I-I can't! I don't know
how to interact with it...
[12:39] ---
An unreasonable child like you
deserves to disappear from my sight.
[12:43] ---
This is your punishment.
You'll stay in this room for many days.
[12:47] ---
No! It's pitch dark in here!
I can't see anything!
[12:52] ---
And if you leave us two
in here all alone...!
[13:05] ---
I don't know how to
interact with pitch darkness...
[13:08] ---
Damn it, Crona!
[13:11] ---
Ragnarok!
[13:12] ---
I got locked in too just because
you can't pull yourself together!
[13:17] ---
That hurts! Quit it!
[13:19] ---
Quit twisting my nose! It hurts!
It's hot! You're hurting my nose!
[13:25] ---
It's too dark to see, but
I know I have a nosebleed now!
[13:27] ---
It's your fault! Take this!
And this! And this!
[13:30] ---
I'm sorry... Wahh! Stop!
[13:33] ---
No more! Stop, I said!
[13:43] ---
You can come out now.
[13:53] ---
He's so mean! Ragnarok keeps beating me up!
[13:57] ---
It hurts! I don't like it! Make him stop!
[14:03] ---
Come. We're continuing where we left off.
[14:06] ---
Defeat that child.
[14:11] ---
I can't...
[14:13] ---
I can't interact that way...
[14:23] ---
Vector Plate.
[14:29] ---
You can stay out of my
sight for a little while longer.
[14:36] ---
Damn it, Crona!
[14:39] ---
--Take this! And this!
[14:40] ---
--Ouch! No! Stop!
[14:51] ---
How many times has it been now?
[14:53] ---
This is getting you nowhere.
[14:54] ---
How many times must you
repeat this until you're satisfied?
[15:05] ---
Look...
[15:07] ---
My blood is black...
[15:43] ---
Bye-bye, little one.
[15:47] ---
Soul! Hey, Soul!
[15:53] ---
Maka...
[15:55] ---
You're going to be killed
if you don't do something.
[15:57] ---
Leave it to me. Dispose
of reason. I'll make you stronger.
[16:03] ---
No! Give me power! But...
[16:08] ---
my reason isn't going anywhere!
[16:10] ---
What?
[16:11] ---
You can't beat the Demon
Sword's madness like that!
[16:15] ---
Leave it to me!
[16:16] ---
You're gravely mistaken if
you think you can get stronger
[16:19] ---
by using reason to maintain discipline!
[16:21] ---
I've never heard of anyone
having it that easy before!
[16:25] ---
Understanding fear and standing up to it.
[16:27] ---
Maintaining complete discipline.
[16:29] ---
This is great power in its own right!
[16:32] ---
Besides, this isn't just about me.
[16:35] ---
If we resonate any more,
Maka will be affected too!
[16:40] ---
Don't be stupid, you damn brat!
Don't turn all dreary on me!
[16:44] ---
What happened to that teen
spirit you were nearly bursting with?!
[16:47] ---
Just let loose and go crazy!
What's life without a little madness?!
[16:54] ---
Shut up! You mean as much to me as my poop!
[16:58] ---
Quit talking to me all the time!
Poop doesn't talk to people!
[17:03] ---
So just shut up and take the lead!
I'll decide if I come along or not!
[17:12] ---
How exactly do I shut up and take the lead?
[17:15] ---
Why not just point or
something, you poop freak?
[17:21] ---
Okay, okay. Let's cool
down for a minute here.
[17:25] ---
Both you and I want to progress forward.
[17:28] ---
We won't get anywhere
if we keep talking like this.
[17:33] ---
Right?
[17:34] ---
Yeah.
[17:35] ---
Actually, there's someone I invited over.
[17:39] ---
Come on in!
[17:42] ---
Huh? How are you...?
[17:48] ---
Now, now. Let's decide things
in an agreeable, democratic way.
[17:57] ---
Maka!
[17:59] ---
I heard most of what's going on.
[18:02] ---
How are you here?! This is
like a meeting inside my brain!
[18:07] ---
Your souls are resonating right now.
[18:11] ---
So it's only natural for your
minds to be connected, too.
[18:14] ---
Hey, demon!
[18:15] ---
Don't tell me she's some
image of Maka you created yourself!
[18:19] ---
Hey!
[18:20] ---
Geez, you're a cautious guy.
[18:23] ---
You're the only one
who's running the show here.
[18:27] ---
I can't do anything to that extent.
[18:30] ---
Maka Chop!
[18:34] ---
Yeah, it's Maka...
[18:37] ---
Now, then. Let's put on some nice music.
[18:43] ---
You lead. I don't know how to do this.
[18:47] ---
That's fine. Just do whatever.
[18:49] ---
Five, six, seven, eight.
[18:58] ---
Why did you come here?
[19:01] ---
Did you hear the demon's voice, too?
[19:04] ---
I'm not sure.
[19:06] ---
But, now that I think about
it, I might've heard it faintly
[19:10] ---
back when I fought the
werewolf with the Magic Eye.
[19:14] ---
Yes, I had entered you, too.
[19:19] ---
But I was removed shortly
after. I'm not sure how, though.
[19:27] ---
In that case, you shouldn't be here!
[19:29] ---
You managed to get rid of the demon!
[19:32] ---
Next time you might not be so lucky!
[19:34] ---
Say. When our wavelengths
are so closely matched like this,
[19:38] ---
you can tell what I'm thinking, can't you?
[19:43] ---
Are you...?
[19:46] ---
Yeah.
[19:48] ---
Are you seriously thinking
of using the black blood
[19:51] ---
to get the same madness Crona has?!
[19:54] ---
I knew you'd be mad.
[19:57] ---
I felt it when I used the
Witch Hunter on him...
[20:00] ---
I feel like I can grasp something
[20:03] ---
if I gain power equal
to the Demon Sword's...
[20:06] ---
I might be able to sense something
about Crona, and his wavelength...
[20:12] ---
It's too dangerous to do
something like that so haphazardly!
[20:16] ---
You might never be sane again, you know.
[20:20] ---
Yeah.
[20:22] ---
Sorry, but I'm certain about this.
[20:26] ---
There's no certainty
that you can return to normal.
[20:28] ---
But it's worth trying, right?
[20:40] ---
All right, fine. Do whatever you want.
[20:45] ---
No matter how far away you fly off,
[20:48] ---
as your weapon, I will pull you back!
[20:50] ---
Oww!
[20:52] ---
Sorry...
[20:54] ---
You should really lead, okay?
[20:56] ---
Yeah, I'll do that...
[20:59] ---
Now that's more like it!
[21:26] ---
He totally went flying!
[21:35] ---
I'm being pulled in by the madness, too!
[21:37] ---
Maka... I swear I won't let go of you!
[21:42] ---
Fool. I'm the one who's leading now.
[21:57] ---
It's beginning. If we knock
[22:01] ---
on the doors that connect you and me,
[22:05] ---
what kind of future will be waiting for us?
[22:14] ---
What grown-ups seek
[22:18] ---
is a perfect style,
[22:21] ---
where everything comes together someday,
[22:25] ---
as though it were a bunch of gears
[22:31] ---
God, if you're there, listen to me
[22:35] ---
You have to watch these days pass by,
[22:40] ---
with moments like these that will never,
[22:45] ---
ever repeat themselves
[22:48] ---
Which is why there are so many boys & girls
[22:52] ---
who want to be children
[22:55] ---
just a little while longer
[22:58] ---
out there in the world,
hiding out of sight and dreaming
[23:05] ---
in this story
[23:18] ---
Where... am I?
[23:20] ---
Figure it out for yourself.
[23:22] ---
It's dark... I can't see anything...
[23:24] ---
Isn't that just because it's night?
[23:26] ---
Oh.
[23:27] ---
I got it! This is Crona's...
[23:28] ---
Ahh! Stop! We don't want
to give away any spoilers now!
[23:32] ---
Huh?
[23:32] ---
You know, about how you turn into a kid!
[23:34] ---
You coulda told me sooner, you know!
[23:36] ---
Next time on Soul Eater, episode 21:
[23:38] ---
"May My Soul Reach You...
A Dry Heart Inside Unbearable Isolation?"
[23:43] ---
Your soul is mine, mister!
