*A sound "soul"*
**[00:16] ---**
*dwells within a sound mind*
**[00:18] ---**
*and a sound body.*
**[00:26] ---**
It's okay, Asura...
**[00:31] ---**
*I'll* protect you...
**[00:35] ---**
Forever and ever...
**[00:57] ---**
*I'm Falling*
**[00:58] ---**
*Down Into My Shadow*
**[01:01] ---**
*I'm holding my breath*
**[01:05] ---**
*and waiting Deadly Night*
**[01:08] ---**
*Don't Scary*
**[01:10] ---**
*If you want it*
**[01:13] ---**
*you can see for yourself*
**[01:17] ---**
*any world at all*
**[01:21] ---**
*See you in your dreams Yeah Baby*
**[01:26] ---**
*even if they're bad dreams*
**[01:32] ---**
*Fairy Blue for you*
**[01:36] ---**
*I destroyed the stars*
**[01:39] ---**
*and hung up a*
**[01:42] ---**
*Black Paper Moon*
**[01:44] ---**
*if you believe in me!*
**[01:48] ---**
*When You're*
**[01:49] ---**
*Lost "Here" I am...*
**[01:52] ---**
*"Forever" With Your Soul*
**[01:55] ---**
*If you look up I'll be there shining*
**[01:59] ---**
*like the moon*
**[02:20] ---**
Today's broadcast has ended.
**[02:24] ---**
*Things are gloomy...*
**[02:27] ---**
*Too many things have been happening.*
**[02:31] ---**
*It's as if all they're all happening
at once and causing an avalanche...*
**[02:49] ---**
*But DWMA isn't paying any
attention to those problems...*
**[03:00] ---**
*The world is on the verge of being
swallowed by the Kishin's madness.*
**[03:10] ---**
*We have to stop it.*
**[03:13] ---**
*After all, stopping the Kishin
was why DWMA was created.*
**[03:23] ---**
*I understand the reasoning,
as well as what kind of situation this is.*
**[03:29] ---**
*But...*
**[03:39] ---**
Can't sleep?
**[03:42] ---**
Leave me alone.
**[03:49] ---**
It's going to affect you
during tomorrow's operation.
**[03:53] ---**
You're not some kid excited
about a field trip.
**[03:57] ---**
Say, Soul...
**[04:01] ---**
Is this okay?
**[04:03] ---**
Huh? What're you talking about?
**[04:07] ---**
Is DWMA really doing what's right?
**[04:12] ---**
I hear they even called
off the search for Dr. Stein,
**[04:17] ---**
and what Kid said bothers me too.
**[04:20] ---**
Plus...
**[04:24] ---**
they still have Crona locked up.
**[04:27] ---**
How should I know?
**[04:34] ---**
If you have time to act
unbecomingly, then go to bed already.
**[04:48] ---**
Be careful, you two!
**[04:51] ---**
Yeah! You can count on us!
**[04:53] ---**
We'll kick the crap outta the
Kishin and be back before you know it!
**[05:00] ---**
Maka...
**[05:02] ---**
She'll be fine!
**[05:04] ---**
We'll all be together!
**[05:06] ---**
Right!
**[05:08] ---**
Let's go, Maka.
**[05:12] ---**
Everyone's trying so hard!
I need to work hard too!
**[05:17] ---**
Meow!
**[05:23] ---**
*"Charge Baba Yaga's Castle!
Things are Kind of Gloomy?"*
**[05:30] ---**
This operation's objective is the
destruction of the now-active Kishin
**[05:34] ---**
as well as his collaborator,
the witch Arachne,
**[05:39] ---**
and her Arachnophobia organization.
**[05:41] ---**
The enemy's base of operations...
**[05:42] ---**
*Deception, hidden intentions...
It all sounds so disenchanting.*
**[05:48] ---**
*It only looks like they're looking
away from what's most important.*
**[05:52] ---**
Follow instructions promptly.
**[05:54] ---**
Even as we speak, the Kishin's
madness spreads throughout the world.
**[06:01] ---**
This is also a race against time!
**[06:04] ---**
Objective ♪1: Defeat the Kishin!
**[06:07] ---**
Objective ♪2: Destroy the
Madness Amplifier and the relay points!
**[06:13] ---**
Objective ♪3: Wipe out
Arachne and Arachnophobia!
**[06:21] ---**
*Still, there's no arguing
with the facts presented to us.*
**[06:27] ---**
We have high hopes for you out there.
**[06:30] ---**
Also be aware that rather close
proximity to the Kishin is expected.
**[06:34] ---**
Don't forget to bring your madness
suppressants or to take them as needed.
**[06:42] ---**
Okay, Lord Death. They're all yours.
**[06:48] ---**
Everyone!
**[06:55] ---**
Good luck!
**[06:57] ---**
V! V!
**[06:59] ---**
That's all?
**[07:00] ---**
V! V!
**[07:02] ---**
The Kishin-hunting
operation will now begin!
**[07:05] ---**
Our destination: Baba Yaga's Castle!
**[07:14] ---**
Sid-*sensei*.
**[07:17] ---**
I have something to ask you.
**[07:20] ---**
What is it?
**[07:22] ---**
Crona...
**[07:24] ---**
What happened to Crona?
**[07:27] ---**
Please tell me! Surely you know!
**[07:33] ---**
Crona was thrown out.
**[07:36] ---**
For leaking information
**[07:37] ---**
and causing internal disturbance
and great damage to DWMA.
**[07:42] ---**
Normally, that would
call for capital punishment.
**[07:45] ---**
But that's... That's not...
**[07:49] ---**
In life, I was a tightlipped man.
And I'm no different now.
**[07:56] ---**
I'm only talking to myself now,
**[07:59] ---**
but Crona being thrown
out is only the official story.
**[08:03] ---**
Crona actually went with
Marie to see Medusa.
**[08:06] ---**
With Ms. Marie?! Why?!
**[08:10] ---**
Marie resigned as a DWMA
instructor the other day.
**[08:18] ---**
Crona intends to settle things with Medusa.
**[08:22] ---**
With Medusa?
**[08:24] ---**
Don't worry. Marie's with Crona.
**[08:28] ---**
So you need to focus on this operation now.
**[08:34] ---**
DWMA has high expectations
for your Anti-Magic Wavelength.
**[08:40] ---**
*So that's it?*
**[08:42] ---**
*That's how it is? This is
what I can't stand about adults...*
**[09:00] ---**
*Sorry, Maka...*
**[09:03] ---**
Is something the matter, Crona?
**[09:05] ---**
Oh, no, it's nothing...
**[09:07] ---**
Okay. In that case, let's go.
**[09:09] ---**
Okay.
**[09:13] ---**
*I'm walking on the same desert as before...*
**[09:18] ---**
*That desert I fled into...*
**[09:23] ---**
*But it's different this time...*
**[09:29] ---**
*Maka. I'm sorry for leaving
without telling you.*
**[09:34] ---**
*But... I won't run anymore.*
**[09:43] ---**
You'll split into three teams and attack
simultaneously from three directions.
**[09:48] ---**
You'll also strike the six relay points
around the world at the same time.
**[09:55] ---**
Never in DWMA's history has
there been an operation of this scale.
**[09:59] ---**
Lord Death. Do those mind
suppressants really work?
**[10:04] ---**
If they did, they'd have been
distributed worldwide long ago.
**[10:09] ---**
I knew it!
**[10:10] ---**
They're placebos. Isn't it obvious?
**[10:16] ---**
But why am I here?
**[10:19] ---**
Yes, why are you here?
**[10:21] ---**
*You're the one who made the decision!*
**[10:24] ---**
I believe this may be too much
military might to use against the Kishin.
**[10:29] ---**
My analysis showed that sending
all the Death Scythes would be enough.
**[10:34] ---**
We got our circumstances!
**[10:37] ---**
I mean...!
Cold sweat...
**[10:39] ---**
Having not only me, but Marie and
even Death the Kid take unrelated action
**[10:44] ---**
during an emergency like this is
not what I'd consider common sense!
**[10:49] ---**
There's no telling what
will happen on the battlefield.
**[10:53] ---**
Which is why it's vital to
prepare for various possibilities.
**[10:58] ---**
Get it?! We got our reasons!
**[11:02] ---**
Eep!
**[11:04] ---**
*Still, our forces are
spread far too thin...*
**[11:10] ---**
Say, wipe that scowl off
your face and have some tea.
**[11:13] ---**
Yeah! We even have some sweets!
**[11:16] ---**
You two are too relaxed!
A big shock!
**[11:21] ---**
This is why I can't stand her...
**[11:23] ---**
Did you say something?
No! Nothing at all!
**[11:26] ---**
Things'll work out.
**[11:28] ---**
I've been thinking about
various things myself, you see.
**[11:36] ---**
Yes...
**[11:39] ---**
I did say I wouldn't
pause for outside help, but...
**[11:43] ---**
I'm Blair the cat!
**[11:45] ---**
I'll be your assistant here starting today!
**[11:48] ---**
I'm Lisa from Chupa Cabra's!
I'm Arisa!
**[11:51] ---**
Why did he send over real cats?!
**[11:55] ---**
Meow!
**[12:00] ---**
Now entering Arachnophobia's
sphere of activity.
**[12:04] ---**
All teams advance. The assault
will begin once everyone is in place.
**[12:25] ---**
What's wrong, Maka?
**[12:27] ---**
No, it's nothing...
**[12:29] ---**
What, are you scared?!
If so, then don't worry!
**[12:33] ---**
The fact I'm here means this
is the safest place in the world!
**[12:41] ---**
You're being too loud, Black☆Star!
**[12:45] ---**
Are you still thinking about nothing good?
**[12:48] ---**
I can't help it...
**[12:50] ---**
Fighting halfheartedly
won't do us any good!
**[12:53] ---**
You know that more than anyone!
**[12:59] ---**
But Sid-*sensei* and Lord
Death have high hopes
**[13:02] ---**
for your Anti-Magic Wavelength, right?
**[13:06] ---**
There's no point in having
an ability you can't use.
**[13:11] ---**
But that isn't what makes you great!
**[13:15] ---**
There's nothing great about me.
**[13:18] ---**
Geez! Honor students can be such a pain!
**[13:21] ---**
That's for sure!
**[13:23] ---**
Stop that, Black☆Star!
**[13:25] ---**
Whatever.
**[13:28] ---**
That reminds me, you talked
with Sid-*sensei* in the hallway.
**[13:32] ---**
You mean about the Anti-Magic
Wavelength? I told you, there's...
**[13:35] ---**
No. About Marie and Crona.
**[13:41] ---**
Do you know what those words really meant?
**[13:48] ---**
Because DWMA made a deal with Medusa,
**[13:50] ---**
we can't do anything against
her or her cronies.
**[13:56] ---**
But that doesn't apply to
Crona and Marie, who left the school.
**[14:02] ---**
Lord Death does some damn cruel things.
**[14:04] ---**
If we're not careful, DWMA could
be a dangerous place like Kid said.
**[14:12] ---**
*That's not fair... How
did he know about that?*
**[14:16] ---**
Do you think that has something to
do with why Kid's group isn't here?
**[14:27] ---**
You small fries have it rough,
with all your lousy worries!
**[14:31] ---**
Not worrying at all is
crazier if you ask me.
**[14:35] ---**
I came here to win!
To win, win, and win some more!
**[14:41] ---**
And then I'll transcend God!
**[14:46] ---**
Here we go again...
**[14:51] ---**
I...
**[15:04] ---**
You were asleep, Asura...
**[15:08] ---**
Being here is all you need to do.
**[15:22] ---**
As long as you're here,
**[15:24] ---**
the world will be completely
swallowed in madness in five days.
**[15:30] ---**
Until then, I'll stay right here with you.
**[15:36] ---**
I bring you news, Lady Arachne.
**[15:38] ---**
Let's hear it.
**[15:40] ---**
DWMA squads are on their way here.
**[15:44] ---**
DWMA?
**[15:46] ---**
I believe they may have determined
the location of Baba Yaga's Castle.
**[15:57] ---**
Yes. But how did you know they were coming?
**[16:02] ---**
They're operating at too large of a scale.
**[16:06] ---**
Other units have been dispatched
to six locations around the world.
**[16:10] ---**
Six locations?
**[16:12] ---**
They're going after the relay points.
**[16:15] ---**
And their main force is
heading straight for us.
**[16:19] ---**
*How did they find us?*
**[16:25] ---**
*Don't tell me it was Medusa?!*
**[16:28] ---**
Prepare to intercept.
**[16:30] ---**
Use our full forces and
drive DWMA back at all costs!
**[16:35] ---**
Yes!
**[16:38] ---**
Alright! Get to work!
**[16:41] ---**
They'll be nothing but junk if
they break down when we need 'em!
**[16:44] ---**
Right!
**[16:51] ---**
It's starting!
**[16:54] ---**
I'm gonna slice everything up!
**[17:00] ---**
It's beginning, Stein.
**[17:12] ---**
Now, let us witness the
downfall of the old order
**[17:19] ---**
and the beginning of a new world...
**[17:27] ---**
Company ♪5 in place.
**[17:29] ---**
Platoon ♪3 in place.
**[17:32] ---**
Platoon ♪7 all set.
**[17:34] ---**
Commander. All squads
have completed preparations.
**[17:38] ---**
Okay! All squads...
**[17:50] ---**
Don't falter!
**[17:53] ---**
Saw Leg, Speed Setting 3!
**[17:59] ---**
Let's go, men!
**[18:08] ---**
I know this attack...!
**[18:23] ---**
Oh. We meet again.
**[18:27] ---**
Couldn't ask for a better opponent!
**[18:42] ---**
Here they come! Commence fighting!
**[18:49] ---**
It's time for me to take the stage!
**[18:52] ---**
Hold on, Black☆Star!
Huh?
**[18:57] ---**
Maka...
**[19:00] ---**
We have to defeat the Kishin.
The DWMA is doing what's right.
**[19:07] ---**
But that doesn't make it okay one
bit to ignore Dr. Stein and Crona...
**[19:18] ---**
It's dangerous to
unconditionally trust DWMA.
**[19:22] ---**
I don't like this...
**[19:26] ---**
But I don't know *what* I should do!
**[19:31] ---**
Ugh, this is getting annoying!
**[19:33] ---**
Blah, blah, blah! And you
call yourself Maka?!
**[19:37] ---**
What's with you?! You don't
have to talk to me like that!
**[19:42] ---**
What are you doing?
**[19:45] ---**
Open your eyes! What do you want to do?!
**[20:14] ---**
Yes... Now I see...
**[20:23] ---**
Sheesh.
**[20:25] ---**
My dad used to say, "Choose your
friends wisely." He was exactly right.
**[20:31] ---**
I used to be a top student, but when
I'm around you I get worse and worse.
**[20:43] ---**
Yes!
**[20:45] ---**
Sorry, Black☆Star! I'm leaving this to you!
**[20:48] ---**
Huh?
**[20:50] ---**
What?
**[20:52] ---**
I'm gonna do things *my* way!
**[20:59] ---**
We leave the rest to you.
Hey, now...
**[21:04] ---**
Geez! Are you kidding me?
**[21:09] ---**
She still *is* a top student.
**[21:20] ---**
*Hang on, Crona!*
**[22:06] ---**
*With dry lips*
**[22:08] ---**
*exposed to the*
**[22:12] ---**
*icy sun*
**[22:16] ---**
*my overflowing tears*
**[22:18] ---**
*scrape against me*
**[22:22] ---**
*with tremendous brightness*
**[22:25] ---**
*So I sought you*
**[22:27] ---**
*to fill in the gaps*
**[22:30] ---**
*left by what I lack,*
**[22:35] ---**
*only to gather up*
**[22:37] ---**
*the sadness passed through*
**[22:42] ---**
*our touching fingers*
**[22:46] ---**
*If you claim the wish*
**[22:48] ---**
*deep in my heartbeat*
**[22:51] ---**
*as being destiny*
**[22:55] ---**
*then the memories*
**[22:59] ---**
*and lost remnants*
**[23:02] ---**
*you left behind*
**[23:05] ---**
*are still*
**[23:07] ---**
*abandoned*
**[23:10] ---**
*even now*
**[23:18] ---**
*I've made up my mind!
Now I just run straight ahead!*
**[23:21] ---**
*Precisely!*
**[23:22] ---**
*Sometimes in life you need to run!
But sometimes you need to stop, too!*
**[23:26] ---**
*Ms. Marie?*
**[23:28] ---**
*To run or to stop? That's the question.*
**[23:32] ---**
*Umm, hmm...*
**[23:34] ---**
*Okay! I'll run while stopped!*
**[23:36] ---**
*You can't do that!*
**[23:38] ---**
*Next time on Soul Eater, episode 43:*
**[23:40] ---**
*"The Last Magic Tool...
Mission Impossible for Unarmed Kid?"*
**[23:44] ---**
*Your soul is mine!*
**[23:46] ---**
