**[00:13] ---**
*A sound "soul"*
**[00:16] ---**
*dwells within a sound mind*
**[00:18] ---**
*and a sound body.*
**[00:29] ---**
What are we doing all the way up here?
**[00:32] ---**
We're going to look for Dr. Stein.
**[00:34] ---**
I know that. I'm asking
how we're gonna do that.
**[00:39] ---**
We'll resonate our souls and raise
my soul perception ability to its limits.
**[00:44] ---**
What?
**[00:45] ---**
If I can just filter everyone
but Crona out, it should work.
**[00:51] ---**
Are you stupid? Are you being serious?
**[00:54] ---**
Of course I'm serious.
**[00:55] ---**
I can't scout a wide area all at once,
**[00:59] ---**
but if I keep the search
focused on smaller areas
**[01:01] ---**
I should be able to sense
him even if he's far away.
**[01:05] ---**
You can't possibly do that.
**[01:07] ---**
I can. Because I know Crona's wavelength.
**[01:11] ---**
Geez. You never change.
**[01:17] ---**
*Now I just need to sense Crona...*
**[01:21] ---**
Soul!
**[01:22] ---**
Yeah!
**[01:26] ---**
Soul Resonance!
**[01:56] ---**
*I'm Falling*
**[01:57] ---**
*Down Into My Shadow*
**[02:00] ---**
*I'm holding my breath*
**[02:04] ---**
*and waiting Deadly Night*
**[02:07] ---**
*Don't Scary*
**[02:09] ---**
*If you want it*
**[02:12] ---**
*you can see for yourself*
**[02:16] ---**
*any world at all*
**[02:20] ---**
*See you in your dreams Yeah Baby*
**[02:25] ---**
*even if they're bad dreams*
**[02:31] ---**
*Fairy Blue for you*
**[02:35] ---**
*I destroyed the stars*
**[02:38] ---**
*and hung up a*
**[02:41] ---**
*Black Paper Moon*
**[02:43] ---**
*if you believe in me!*
**[02:46] ---**
*When You're*
**[02:48] ---**
*Lost "Here" I am...*
**[02:51] ---**
*"Forever" With Your Soul*
**[02:54] ---**
*If you look up I'll be there shining*
**[02:58] ---**
*like the moon*
**[03:19] ---**
That way.
**[03:26] ---**
That way.
**[03:27] ---**
Danger
**[03:31] ---**
That way.
**[03:39] ---**
That way.
**[03:40] ---**
This way.
**[03:58] ---**
*"Weakling Crona's Determination...
For You, for Always Being by My Side?"*
**[04:11] ---**
That way.
**[04:12] ---**
This way.
**[04:49] ---**
For someone who stormed
this place in such high spirits...
**[05:05] ---**
That's my child for you...
**[05:24] ---**
That takes care of these guys.
**[05:27] ---**
Tsubaki. Which way is the Kishin?
**[05:30] ---**
We're quite a distance
ahead of the platoon.
**[05:33] ---**
Let's go back and rendezvous with them.
**[05:35] ---**
Nope.
**[05:37] ---**
We don't need any dead weight.
**[05:39] ---**
Plus negative stuff like me
turning back isn't my thing!
**[05:44] ---**
You know?
**[05:45] ---**
Okay.
**[05:48] ---**
Okay, Black☆Star, here's DWMA's strategy.
**[05:52] ---**
Baba Yaga's Castle is inside
a hollow cavity in this jungle.
**[05:56] ---**
Infiltrating that cavity comes first.
**[05:59] ---**
Infiltrating the castle
inside it comes next.
**[06:03] ---**
Many traps are expected, of course.
**[06:08] ---**
Once we're near the castle,
they should have new orders for us.
**[06:12] ---**
Do you understand?
**[06:14] ---**
So basically, the Kishin
is inside that castle?
**[06:17] ---**
Yes.
**[06:19] ---**
Then it's simple! Let's go!
**[06:34] ---**
Quit scamperin' all over the place!
**[07:17] ---**
I'm so sad. Why do you
look at me so, Crona?
**[07:22] ---**
Lady Medusa... I...
**[07:26] ---**
Our plan is now on the
verge of being realized.
**[07:30] ---**
If you still see me as...
**[07:33] ---**
Cut the act, Medusa!
**[07:35] ---**
You tried to kill him
without so much as a greeting;
**[07:38] ---**
nothing you say will have any effect!
**[07:41] ---**
Oh, aren't you a member of DWMA?
**[07:45] ---**
Former member.
**[07:47] ---**
Sorry, but I no longer work there.
**[07:51] ---**
So your agreement with
DWMA doesn't apply to me.
**[07:56] ---**
Oh, is that so? What brings you
here then, former DWMA member?
**[08:02] ---**
Give back Stein!
**[08:06] ---**
Oh, you're so funny!
**[08:09] ---**
There's nothing funny about it!
**[08:11] ---**
Really?
**[08:12] ---**
To me it seems like the last futile
struggles of an abandoned woman.
**[08:19] ---**
What a horrible organization
DWMA is, though.
**[08:23] ---**
Breaking accords using cheap tactics
**[08:26] ---**
and ordering children to
kill their parents...
**[08:29] ---**
And none of that has anything to
do with the things *you've* done?!
**[08:36] ---**
So, what brings *you* here? Tell me, Crona...
**[08:49] ---**
Why did you decide to take this journey?
**[08:52] ---**
To settle things once and for all...
**[08:55] ---**
Do you know what that entails?
**[09:00] ---**
You're about to point a blade
at your own mother, you know.
**[09:05] ---**
Yeah...
**[09:07] ---**
You certainly answered that easily.
**[09:09] ---**
I can't help it. There's
no other way of saying so.
**[09:14] ---**
I've run away this entire time,
**[09:17] ---**
looking away from anything
inconvenient and putting off my problems...
**[09:23] ---**
I deserve to take responsibility
**[09:26] ---**
for tricking you and causing
Dr. Stein's disappearance...
**[09:31] ---**
I find that difficult to believe.
**[09:34] ---**
Understand, Crona.
It's not easy to regain lost trust.
**[09:40] ---**
Only *after* we've gotten Stein
back will I really be able to forgive you.
**[09:46] ---**
I'm going to Medusa's place
with you as Stein's partner.
**[09:54] ---**
How about you?
**[09:59] ---**
I...
**[10:04] ---**
Answer me, Crona!
**[10:09] ---**
I...
**[10:17] ---**
I...
**[10:24] ---**
came here for my friend's sake.
**[10:30] ---**
I'm going to stop you,
for my dear friend's sake!
**[10:38] ---**
Honestly, now. Of all the
stupid things you could say...
**[10:43] ---**
You can't get any lower than that.
**[10:45] ---**
You can't say that!
**[10:47] ---**
But it's true. You can't even hurt me,
much less take Dr. Stein back.
**[10:58] ---**
Dr. Stein is here of his own will.
**[11:02] ---**
You lie!
**[11:07] ---**
You're an overreactive woman.
**[11:12] ---**
You're at your wit's end.
**[11:14] ---**
The more you say,
the more it all sounds like lies.
**[11:20] ---**
It's not a lie.
**[11:22] ---**
Even if it was, that
wouldn't change the fact
**[11:24] ---**
that your voices don't get through to him.
**[11:29] ---**
He's crazy about me. Do you
have the right to take that from him?
**[11:35] ---**
Who are you to Stein?
**[11:38] ---**
You disgust me! I've had
enough of your talking!
**[11:41] ---**
Don't forget that if you harm
me you harm little Rachel's body.
**[11:51] ---**
A coward to the end...!
**[11:54] ---**
Here's one more tip for you.
**[11:56] ---**
Do you realize what all this means?
**[12:00] ---**
It means you cannot hurt us.
**[12:04] ---**
But what about the reverse?
**[12:10] ---**
It goes without saying
what the answer to that is.
**[12:29] ---**
Ribbit...
**[12:31] ---**
Sheesh, I can't stay here and let
myself get caught up in the battle!
**[12:37] ---**
Mizunes!
**[12:40] ---**
Oh? Free is still the same as usual too?
**[12:43] ---**
Okay. If anything happens,
I'll be counting on you again.
**[12:49] ---**
Why does only Medusa get
to watch from above?
**[12:53] ---**
She's gonna pay big-time
if she's taking a nice nap.
**[12:58] ---**
Well, shall we begin?
**[13:01] ---**
Ready any time you are.
We have similar intentions.
**[13:06] ---**
What's the matter, Medusa? Why that look?
**[13:09] ---**
You don't understand why
I'm so calm, do you?
**[13:17] ---**
You're concerned about
why I came here with Crona
**[13:19] ---**
instead of someone else, aren't you?
**[13:22] ---**
If you have something to say, just say it.
**[13:26] ---**
Oh, you really *are* concerned.
Serves you right.
**[13:30] ---**
You're bluffing. Besides, what can
you possibly do without a partner?
**[13:35] ---**
I'll let you experience the full power
of a Death Scythe up close and personal.
**[13:41] ---**
Don't you mean former Death Scythe?
**[13:44] ---**
Here we go, Crona!
Right!
**[13:49] ---**
Very well. I will take you on.
**[13:52] ---**
You're seriously gonna do this?!
**[13:55] ---**
There's no other choice.
This is what I've decided.
**[13:59] ---**
Don't blame me for whatever happens!
**[14:02] ---**
Yeah. I know.
**[14:03] ---**
Vector Arrow!
**[14:08] ---**
Don't ridicule me!
**[14:14] ---**
Vector Plate.
**[14:23] ---**
Is that...?!
**[14:30] ---**
That light just now...
**[14:37] ---**
*These attacks... He doesn't
seem serious about them...*
**[14:41] ---**
*He doesn't intend to hit me...*
**[14:43] ---**
*Meaning he has some other plan...*
**[14:46] ---**
Vector Arrow.
**[14:55] ---**
Knock that off, Crona.
**[14:58] ---**
I don't want to feel sad anymore...
**[15:03] ---**
I don't want to betray
my friends anymore...
**[15:08] ---**
I...
**[15:11] ---**
won't be your tool anymore!
**[15:14] ---**
Crona.
**[15:18] ---**
Such paltry misgivings.
Friends aren't worth believing in.
**[15:24] ---**
Y-You're wrong!
**[15:26] ---**
You were always a nice child.
**[15:29] ---**
You're wrong...!
**[15:31] ---**
You were used to being all alone
and obeying my every command.
**[15:38] ---**
I'm all you have...
**[15:42] ---**
Not anymore...!
**[15:44] ---**
There's no point in trying to act tough.
**[15:47] ---**
You can't betray me and you know it.
**[15:52] ---**
After all...
**[15:56] ---**
After all, you're...
**[16:02] ---**
my child.
**[16:04] ---**
Even so...!
**[16:07] ---**
Even so, I *must* defeat you!
**[16:12] ---**
You would defeat your own parent?
**[16:19] ---**
What a conundrum.
I can't afford to be beaten yet.
**[16:24] ---**
I want to witness how
this world will evolve too.
**[16:29] ---**
Let's do this, then!
**[16:32] ---**
*You* can die.
**[16:34] ---**
Medusa!
**[16:37] ---**
Vector Arrow!
**[16:39] ---**
Stay out of this. This is a family matter.
**[16:44] ---**
It's too late for that!
**[16:46] ---**
I see. If you insist on butting in,
**[16:50] ---**
then could it wait until
after you've beaten *him*?
**[16:52] ---**
Stein...!
**[16:55] ---**
Marie...
**[16:57] ---**
You recognize me?! If you do...!
**[16:59] ---**
Why are you alive?
**[17:02] ---**
You died.
**[17:08] ---**
What are you talking about?! I didn't die!
**[17:12] ---**
Oh, I see. This is a
poorly-constructed dream.
**[17:17] ---**
The old order is trying to
launch an attack inside my brain
**[17:21] ---**
to prevent my ideals from being realized...
**[17:25] ---**
Stein...
**[17:27] ---**
Please, Marie. Leave my sight.
**[17:32] ---**
Before I wind up dissecting you...
**[17:35] ---**
Stein?!
**[17:37] ---**
Do not let that woman touch you,
Stein. She has something up her sleeve.
**[17:44] ---**
Yes, I know.
**[17:48] ---**
I know exactly what abilities
she has and what she will do...
**[17:56] ---**
Then let us begin. For a new order.
**[18:00] ---**
Vector Blade!
**[18:04] ---**
In commemoration of the
start of your rebellious age...
**[18:16] ---**
Stein...!
**[18:20] ---**
Hey! Pull yourself together,
you idiot! If you die, I die too!
**[18:29] ---**
This is all you have after
you threaten to defeat me...
**[18:34] ---**
How will you entertain me next?
**[18:43] ---**
*Where...*
**[18:45] ---**
*Where am I?*
**[18:48] ---**
*Am I within the framework of order?*
**[18:53] ---**
*Am I positive? Am I negative?
Am I at peace?*
**[18:58] ---**
*Am I in the middle of feeling terror?*
**[19:02] ---**
*Is the truth what I'm seeing?*
**[19:02] ---**
Do you know?
**[19:06] ---**
*Or is it all a fabrication?*
**[19:10] ---**
*Water flows from high
locations to low locations.*
**[19:15] ---**
*Eventually, the water begins
to rush and become a river.*
**[19:20] ---**
*A person's will is the same.*
**[19:25] ---**
*It despises the falling of
the old order and scorns it.*
**[19:30] ---**
*But, if the very idea that it
sits in a high location is wrong,*
**[19:38] ---**
*then order rules over all.*
**[19:41] ---**
*But that's fine...*
**[19:44] ---**
*All that I need now is...*
**[19:47] ---**
to obey the new rules
**[19:56] ---**
Please, Stein! Listen to me!
**[20:01] ---**
There is only one thing I want to do now.
**[20:05] ---**
Dissect!
**[20:12] ---**
What happened to all that
spirit you just had, Crona?!
**[20:16] ---**
Ragnarok!
**[20:21] ---**
I know what you did. You
hardened your black blood.
**[20:26] ---**
But...
**[20:32] ---**
Who do you think I am? I'm the
leading expert on black blood research.
**[20:41] ---**
Crona!
**[20:44] ---**
Hey, Crona! This is bad!
Pull yourself together!
**[20:53] ---**
Bloody Needle!
**[20:56] ---**
Why...?!
**[20:57] ---**
Oh, you haven't figured it out?
I shot a soul wavelength into you two.
**[21:05] ---**
That wavelength causes your soul
wavelengths to shift out of synch.
**[21:11] ---**
If you can't use your Bloody Needle,
**[21:13] ---**
then you can't harden
your blood for a while either.
**[21:17] ---**
In other words, I can
easily cut you up, Crona.
**[21:24] ---**
This is the end.
**[21:26] ---**
Die!
**[21:42] ---**
Medusa!
**[22:05] ---**
*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*
**[22:45] ---**
*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] ---**
*Maka. I won't hesitate anymore.
The most important thing to me is...*
**[23:24] ---**
*Love?*
**[23:25] ---**
*Huh? No, it's...*
**[23:27] ---**
*- -Friendship, then?
Umm, no, it's...*
**[23:30] ---**
*Just come out with it! I don't
remember raising you to be like this!*
**[23:34] ---**
*I-I'm sorry!*
**[23:37] ---**
*Next time on Soul Eater, episode 45:*
**[23:40] ---**
*"Anti-Magic Wavelength... Fierce Attack,
the Anger-Filled Genie Hunter?"*
**[23:43] ---**
*Your soul is...*
**[23:44] ---**
*Did you say something?*
