    A sound "soul"
[00:16] ---
    dwells within a sound mind
[00:18] ---
    and a sound body.
[00:32] ---
    Oh...
[00:34] ---
    Oh!
[00:38] ---
    T-This is... Excalibur...?
[00:46] ---
    It'll bring me victory and glory
[00:49] ---
    and make me a hero...
[00:53] ---
    If I just partner with the Holy Sword,
    even I can be beautifully reborn!
[01:01] ---
    All right! I'll do it!
[01:03] ---

    Hey, Hero!
[02:48] ---
    Yes?
[02:49] ---
    Hate to ask, but could you go buy
    us some rolls from the school store?
[02:52] ---
    Huh? Why me?
[02:54] ---
    Come on. This is something only you can do.
[02:59] ---
    Something only I can do?
[03:02] ---
    Leave it to me!
[03:04] ---
    Oh, some for me too!
[03:06] ---
    And two cans of juice
    from the farthest shop.
[03:09] ---
    It's something only you can do,
    so we're counting on you!
[03:18] ---
    Hey, Hero!
[03:20] ---
    C'mere.
[03:22] ---
    Yes, Black☆Star?
[03:23] ---
    Be my test subject again.
[03:27] ---
    Does that hurt a lot? Is
    it hard to break free?
[03:30] ---
    I-I'm gonna die!
[03:37] ---
    Looks like there's room for improvement.
[03:40] ---
    Hero seems like someone who'd
    be popular at an ordinary school.
[03:44] ---
    But here... he's wimpy.
[03:47] ---
    Coolness doesn't make the person;
    the person makes the coolness.
[03:52] ---
    Damn! The Holy Sword will be mine!
[03:56] ---
    And then I will put an
    end to this pushover life!
[04:09] ---
    "Legend of the Holy Sword 3...
    Tale of the DWMA Gang Leader?"

[04:14] ---
    I am the great Black☆Star!
[04:17] ---
    The greatest, strongest man in the world!
[04:22] ---
    This great man is going
    to school! Right, Tsubaki?!
[04:25] ---
    Yay!
[04:29] ---
    Huh?
    A fight first thing in the morning?
[04:34] ---
    Honestly. What fools.
[04:38] ---
    Losers like you don't stand a chance
    against me now that I'm reborn a hero.
[04:44] ---
    Hero did this?
[04:47] ---
    DWMA is nothing special either.
[04:52] ---
    Ugh. Him.
[04:54] ---
    My heroic tale was much more thrilling.
[05:01] ---
    I shall tell it to you students!
[05:26] ---
    Fool!
[05:39] ---
    Now, then!
[05:41] ---
    My legend begins in the 12th century.
[05:44] ---
    This is gonna be obnoxious,
    so just half-listen to it
[05:44] ---
    I believe it was on a sweltering midsummer day.
[05:47] ---
    No, it was a chilly autumn.
[05:50] ---
    Back then, I, too, was a ruffian.
[05:52] ---
    Come to think of it, it
    might've been winter.
[05:54] ---
    I was friends with all the
    tough-looking people.
[05:57] ---
    All the chicks fought over me.
[05:59] ---
    No, it was summer after all.
[06:01] ---
    It was an extremely hot midsummer day.
[06:03] ---
    Unlike now, I was like a sharpened knife.
[06:07] ---
    However, I somehow gave
    off an air of elegance.
[06:09] ---
    Everyone said so. Even
    now, everyone says so.
[06:12] ---
    Actually, maybe they
    didn't say it much back then.
[06:14] ---
    It was gradually starting to be
    said that I was surprisingly nice.
[06:18] ---
    Now that I think about it,
    perhaps I did give off an air of elegance.
[06:22] ---
    The results spoke for themselves.
    I was amazing.
[06:25] ---
    Even now I'm amazing, but I was a ruffian.
[06:27] ---
    It all happened on a winter
    day brimming with elegance.
[06:31] ---
    Now, then! Shall I tell you the legend?
[06:33] ---
    You're obnoxious!
[06:34] ---
    However, there will be a five-minute break
    first! Sit on your knees upright and wait!
[06:39] ---
    Hold on, you idiot!
[06:42] ---
    What's the matter with you?
    It hasn't been five minutes yet.
[06:46] ---
    Have I seen you somewhere before?
    Yeah, we've met bef...
[06:49] ---
    Don't you know how to
    sit upright?! Ignorant fool!
[06:51] ---
    Don't point your cane at me!
[06:53] ---
    Did you see my strength too, Black☆Star?
[06:57] ---
    I'm no longer the weakling I once was.
[06:59] ---
    With the Holy Sword, I've
    been reborn as someone strong.
[07:04] ---
    Just having the Holy Sword
    wouldn't make you any different.
[07:10] ---
    Anyway, I'm amazed you can stand
    being around someone this annoying.
[07:14] ---
    How do you figure?
[07:15] ---
    The 1000 provisions to being
    Excalibur's meister are simple to follow.
[07:21] ---
    So simple that I want to ask why you
    can't stand something as easy as this.
[07:25] ---
    You gotta be crazy,
[07:27] ---
    attending the Holy Sword's five-hour
    recitation party every single day...
[07:31] ---
    Come to think of it, my legend began
    on a Tuesday or Wednesday like today.
[07:36] ---
    Or was it a Saturday?
[07:38] ---
    If you're gonna interrupt,
    at least be sure about things!
[07:40] ---
    No, it may've been a Monday.
[07:42] ---
    No, a Tuesday or Wednesday.
[07:44] ---
    It's possible it was a Friday
    that seemed like a Thursday.
[07:48] ---
    Though, it could've been a
    Tuesday or more likely a Thursday,
[07:52] ---
    but I do believe it
    could've been a Saturday.
[07:54] ---
    No, a Wednesday or possibly a Monday.
[07:56] ---
    Actually, it might've been a Friday.
[07:59] ---
    No, no, that's not...
[08:05] ---
    You're obnoxious! I can't take
    it anymore! I'm gonna kill you!
[08:09] ---
    You want to fight?
[08:11] ---
    I'll participate in the fight too.

    Death the Kid...
[08:38] ---
    Three of the school's best fighting
    faction versus the Holy Sword...
[08:41] ---
    This is a great match-up.
[08:45] ---
    I'll let you witness the power
    I gained from being reborn too.
[08:51] ---
    Excalibur!
[08:56] ---
    Victory... Glory...
[09:10] ---
    Be one with me!
[09:16] ---
    How awe-inspiring...
[09:20] ---
    Compared to the legend of the Holy Sword,
[09:22] ---
    you are nothing more than a maiden's tears.
[09:27] ---
    Shut up!
[09:29] ---
    I've had enough! For Hero,
    you're being way too cheeky!
[09:32] ---
    My name is... Hero the Brave!
[09:40] ---
    Take this!
[09:42] ---
    The invincible Conan the Great!
[09:47] ---
    Those who cannot chase light
    cannot hope to catch Hero the Brave.
[09:57] ---
    Now I'm all fired up!
[09:59] ---
    Pot of Fire Triple F!
[10:02] ---
    Styx Shot!
[10:08] ---
    What?!
[10:08] ---
    He disappeared?!
[10:12] ---
    Try this on for size.
[10:16] ---
    Special attack, Hero the Atomic...
[10:30] ---
    Whoa. All he did was shout his
    technique name and they went flying off.
[10:34] ---
    I don't even know what it did.
[10:38] ---
    What do you think? This
    is my new, reborn form.
[10:44] ---
    And so DWMA became the
    turf of Hero, the shoddy meister.

[10:50] ---
    What will happen to DWMA now?!
[10:54] ---
    Find out after the break!
[11:11] ---
    Now do you see my reborn power?
[11:14] ---
    Peeking doesn't get any more legendary.
[11:16] ---
    Shut up!
[11:22] ---
    What's that?
[11:26] ---
    Ha ha! If you don't like
    it, then try and beat me!
[11:30] ---
    That's so indecent!
[11:37] ---
    Excalibur is gone!
[11:40] ---
    Yay!
    Hurray!
[11:42] ---
    Flowers bloomed in their
    newfound springtime
[11:53] ---
    Now that I'm reborn, everyone worships me.
[11:58] ---
    I bring both the enchantment
    and unease of a chosen one!

[12:02] ---
    He keeps talking about
    being reborn and stuff.
[12:07] ---
    His attitude is the only
    thing that's been reborn.
[12:13] ---
    Ox!
[12:17] ---
    How dare you do something
    so despicable to my beloved Kim!
[12:20] ---
    You'll pay for this, Hero!
[12:21] ---
    Ox!
[12:22] ---
    Wait!
[12:24] ---
    Calm down, Ox!
[12:26] ---
    How long are those two gonna last anyway?
[12:32] ---
    Knowing how shoddy Hero is,
[12:34] ---
    it's obvious he'll give up soon enough,
    unable to stand the Holy Sword's rules!
[12:40] ---
    You're scaring me, Ox...
[12:41] ---
    "Excalibur's 1000 provisions
    that are to be observed."

[12:45] ---
    "♪22: Refreshing mornings
    begin with refreshing greetings."

[12:53] ---
    Good morning, Hero!
[12:54] ---
    Good morning, Excalibur!
[12:57] ---
    Now, then! Thus begins
    the great day that is today!
[13:00] ---
    Let us spend together these days
    that will never return! Let's enjoy!
[13:18] ---
    I'll kill them!
[13:20] ---
    "♪452: You must attend my daily,
    five hour-long recitation parties."

[13:27] ---
    As is written here, one's twenties
[13:27] ---
    Excalibur Recitation Party
    Come Back, Fleeting
[13:29] ---
    are truly life's transition period,
[13:32] ---
    diverging point, crossroads of life,
[13:34] ---
    turning point, the change
    from one generation to the next.
[13:37] ---
    Yes! Even my twenties were my
    transition period from ruffian to legend!
[13:43] ---
    My dancing pompadour stirred up
    jealousy in the hearts of men...
[13:44] ---
    Five minutes later...
[13:46] ---
    men were so infatuated with my legendary
    pompadour
[13:51] ---
    that even those who preferred the life
    of solitude began appearing in swarms.
[13:54] ---
    One hour later...
[13:55] ---
    a person is in adolescence from
[13:57] ---
    the moment they are brought into
    this world.
[13:59] ---
    My own adolescence was so amazing
[14:01] ---
    that I thought about
    such philosophical
[14:03] ---
    and abstract things every day!
[14:03] ---
    Five hours later...
[14:07] ---
    That is all!
[14:13] ---
    "♪578: The courageous
    must always tell the truth."

[14:18] ---
    So, you didn't see
    anything when it happened?
[14:22] ---
    That's right. I didn't see anything.
[14:25] ---
    I see. Then did anyone else
    see anything when it happened?
[14:29] ---
    No. I didn't see anyone
    else who saw anything.
[14:33] ---
    I see.
[14:34] ---
    This is indeed a puzzling case.
[14:36] ---
    No one saw anyone who saw
    you not see anything, you see.
[14:42] ---
    Holmes. Have you found anything?
[14:44] ---
    Yes, I have a good idea what happened here.
[14:47] ---
    Which would be...?
[14:48] ---
    He's the killer!
[14:50] ---
    What?!
[14:51] ---
    This man is the brother of the
    girl who went missing 10 years ago
[14:55] ---
    and the serial murderer
    behind this grand plot for revenge!
[14:58] ---
    Wow! I didn't know that!
[15:01] ---
    Screw you!
[15:02] ---
    Don't give out spoilers!
    I want my money back!

    "♪202: You must only use

    Still...
[15:22] ---
    don't build it in a place like this.
[15:24] ---
    There were no other large, open spaces.

    "♪667: You must always praise Excalibur."

[16:03] ---

    Yes. The legendary Holy Sword, Excalibur...
[17:50] ---
    The legendary Holy Sword, Excalibur...
[17:59] ---
    It seems Hero has used him to
    become this place's school gang leader.
[18:04] ---
    School gang leaders, buttoned
    uniforms, sandals, good at fighting...
[18:11] ---
    And many loyal underlings.
    Truly men among men.
[18:16] ---
    And always part of the male cheering squad.
[18:20] ---
    Wait, when did our school pick up
    that old school gang leader system?
[18:24] ---
    I don't know. That's a good question.

    Just look at my truly reborn form!
    Look, everyone! Look more!

[18:59] ---
    Hero's filled with confidence now...
[19:02] ---
    Well, in one sense, that
    is an ideal partner.
[19:05] ---
    This can't be real! Not that
    shoddy Hero! I refuse to believe it!
[19:11] ---
    Everyone has different opinions
    on the matter, but whatever the case,

[19:15] ---
    the strange bond between the
    Holy Sword and the shoddy meister

[19:19] ---
    seemed to all that it
    would continue forever.

[19:22] ---
    However...

    Hey, Hero!
[20:12] ---
    Oh, good morning, Black☆Star.
    Would you like a roll too?
[20:15] ---
    No...
[20:16] ---
    Huh? You seem like your old self.
    What happened to the Holy Sword?
[20:22] ---
    Oh, that? I put that
    thing back where I found it!
[20:26] ---
    Huh? What for? Weren't
    you guys getting along?
[20:30] ---
    His sneezes...
[20:32] ---
    His sneezes never stop after the first one!
[20:35] ---
    Huh?
[20:36] ---
    Sneezes.
[20:37] ---
    They send spit flying, they're loud,
    and sneezing a lot in a row is unthinkable.
[20:41] ---
    I hope that guy dies!
[20:44] ---
    At least put up with that...
[20:48] ---
    Just when I thought I had been reborn...
[20:51] ---
    Say, are there any other
    good ways to go about it?
[20:54] ---
    Huh? That doesn't even require any thought!
