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] ---**

**[02:45] ---**
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.

Kilik Rung...
**[08:33] ---**
Black☆Star...
**[08:36] ---**
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!
**[15:06] ---**
*"♪202: You must only use
the highest-quality restrooms."*
**[15:18] ---**
DWMA 1-A
**[15:21] ---**
Still...
**[15:22] ---**
don't build it in a place like this.
**[15:24] ---**
There were no other large, open spaces.
**[15:28] ---**
*"♪667: You must always praise Excalibur."*
**[15:35] ---**
O, Excalibur! O, Excalibur!
**[15:41] ---**
O, Excalibur!

You're obnoxious!
**[16:03] ---**
Oh! Then I need to come up
with at least 365 ways to celebrate!

You're gonna do it?!

*"♪602: You must always prepare fresh food."*

I want king crab.

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?

I don't know. That's a good question.

Sneezes...
**[20:01] ---**
It is now everlasting summer here!

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?

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!
**[20:57] ---**
Learn from me!
**[20:59] ---**
I'm the man who's gonna transcend God!
