[00:13] ---
A sound "soul"
[00:16] ---
dwells within a sound mind
[00:18] ---
and a sound body.
[00:23] ---
As the battle headed for a
conclusion, it also escalated in speed.
[00:31] ---
Black☆Star finished his
fight with Mifune...
[00:40] ---
and my father used the Magic Tool Brew
[00:43] ---
to activate the Death City Robot.
[00:58] ---
What?!
[01:00] ---
This can't be!
[01:01] ---
And, at last, the Kishin
was successfully captured.
[01:23] ---
I'm Falling
[01:24] ---
Down Into My Shadow
[01:27] ---
I'm holding my breath
[01:31] ---
and waiting Deadly Night
[01:34] ---
Don't Scary
[01:36] ---
If you want it
[01:39] ---
you can see for yourself
[01:43] ---
any world at all
[01:47] ---
See you in your dreams Yeah Baby
[01:51] ---
even if they're bad dreams
[01:58] ---
Fairy Blue for you
[02:02] ---
I destroyed the stars
[02:05] ---
and hung up a
[02:08] ---
Black Paper Moon
[02:10] ---
if you believe in me!
[02:14] ---
When You're
[02:15] ---
Lost "Here" I am...
[02:18] ---
"Forever" With Your Soul
[02:21] ---
If you look up I'll be there shining
[02:25] ---
like the moon
[02:55] ---
Honestly, now. I see you're
still as heavy-handed as ever.
[03:02] ---
We meet again, Asura.
[03:05] ---
I had hoped that we wouldn't,
if at all possible...
[03:11] ---
Things are getting tense in here...
[03:14] ---
I feel like the madness might take
over my mind just by being here...
[03:19] ---
Lord Death in his complete form,
brandishing Death Scythe...
[03:24] ---
and the Kishin Asura, who escaped
after being sealed away for so long...
[03:29] ---
Which will it be?
[03:31] ---
So sorry, but there's no escape now.
[03:36] ---
My permission is needed to leave this room.
[03:41] ---
Oh, then that means I
simply need to defeat you.
[03:47] ---
Are you serious? Do you
really think you can defeat me?
[03:57] ---
Sorry...
[04:00] ---
but the outcome of our fight was
decided the moment you were swallowed.
[04:07] ---
So, shall we finish things
up nice and quickly?
[04:12] ---
It's starting... The
battle between two gods...
[04:20] ---
"Lord Death Wields a Death Scythe...
Just One Step from Utter Darkness?"
[04:32] ---
Hey, Maka! What the heck's going on?!
[04:35] ---
How is Death City moving around?!
What happened to the Kishin?!
[04:40] ---
I don't need soul perception to know.
The Kishin is in the Death Room.
[04:46] ---
What?!
[04:48] ---
Lord Death is there, too.
[04:50] ---
Then...
[04:52] ---
Let's hurry, Soul.
[04:53] ---
You're going to the Death Room?
[04:56] ---
There are still other objectives.
[04:58] ---
The destruction of Arachne
and the device...
[05:00] ---
Let's do what we can.
[05:04] ---
First we'll meet up with
Black☆Star's group. Okay?
[05:07] ---
Yeah. Got it.
[05:21] ---
Which way?
[05:22] ---
Turn left there...
Left?!
[05:26] ---
Which way is left?!
[05:27] ---
Calm down, Black☆Star. Left is
the hand you hold your rice bowl in.
[05:34] ---
Okay!
[05:36] ---
Please, Black☆Star! That's the
hand you hold chopsticks with!
[05:43] ---
I did that on purpose!
[05:45] ---
O-Oh. Sorry, Black☆Star.
[05:49] ---
It didn't seem that way to me...
[06:05] ---
Hey, Kid! What is this?!
[06:08] ---
Unbelievable! Neither of
them has even made a move yet!
[06:12] ---
No, they are now!
[06:34] ---
Burp.
[06:36] ---
Okay, now it's our turn.
[06:40] ---
Spirit. Are you ready?
[06:43] ---
Any time you are!
[06:45] ---
Then let us go all out!
[07:01] ---
He did it!
[07:02] ---
Fools!
[07:04] ---
There was no resistance! Is this a dummy?!
[07:31] ---
Father!
[07:33] ---
Is that all you have?
[07:38] ---
I guess you haven't had
enough rehabilitation yet!
[07:43] ---
That manner of talking rather irritates me.
[07:46] ---
Could you do something about it?
[07:48] ---
In that case, be a good boy
and let me finish you.
[07:51] ---
I promise it won't hurt!
[07:57] ---
Allow me to recount an old tale.
[08:00] ---
After you sealed me away,
I thought about a great many things.
[08:06] ---
After all, the only freedom allowed to
me after being stuffed inside that skin
[08:11] ---
was the freedom to think...
[08:14] ---
Yeah, sorry about that.
This time I promise to kill you properly.
[08:21] ---
Yikes! Lord Death is saying stuff
even more extreme than Stein now!
[08:27] ---
In the pitch darkness,
I thought about all sorts of things...
[08:31] ---
About everything in the universe...
[08:35] ---
That's when I realized just
how unstable this world is...
[08:44] ---
Yes. The world is covered by a thin skin.
[08:49] ---
What lies beneath it is
unclear and ambiguous.
[08:52] ---
Is it made of a soft
material, or is it hard?
[08:57] ---
If not, then perhaps it's made of a liquid.
[09:01] ---
What proof is there that
it's not a hollow cavity?
[09:04] ---
But no one can know what lies
beneath that skin without looking under it.
[09:14] ---
What is beneath that single
layer of skin is a complete mystery.
[09:18] ---
All we can do is imagine
what that skin envelops.
[09:23] ---
But what if it's hiding something
that we can't even imagine?
[09:30] ---
That's a very terrifying thought.
[09:32] ---
Could you quit with the
dull and complicated talk?!
[09:39] ---
Reaper Chop!
[09:54] ---
The phrase, "Just thinking about
it terrifies me" is not quite accurate.
[10:00] ---
It's imagination that gives people fear.
[10:03] ---
You're saying happiness can be had
by staying holed up in a dark place?
[10:09] ---
Imagination is the source of all emotion.
[10:12] ---
People imagine things because
they don't know what to expect.
[10:16] ---
Positive people call that "curiosity."
[10:21] ---
The order you've created offers
calmness and peace of mind to the people.
[10:28] ---
But when you peel away the thin skin
of that order, just what lies underneath?
[10:34] ---
Beats me...
[10:36] ---
You lie. Surely you know.
[10:40] ---
I've had just about enough
of your pointless banter.
[10:45] ---
Spirit.
[10:46] ---
I've been waiting for this!
[10:51] ---
Soul Resonance!
[10:57] ---
Time to die, Asura!
[11:01] ---
What?
[11:02] ---
Kishin Hunter!
[11:28] ---
That was a light wound.
[11:32] ---
It's no problem. It'll grow right back.
[11:44] ---
What kind of battle is this?!
[11:47] ---
That's hardly surprising to me,
given who I'm dealing with.
[11:52] ---
Pain is not an important issue.
[11:55] ---
Much more terrifying is imagining
the future derived from that pain.
[12:01] ---
Your point being?
[12:03] ---
People are not terrified of death.
[12:06] ---
They are terrified of imagining death.
[12:09] ---
Umm, I asked what your point was...
[12:14] ---
My point?
[12:16] ---
Yes. What I am basically trying to say...
[12:22] ---
is that I have stopped imagining.
[12:37] ---
U-Umm, Black☆Star?
[12:41] ---
Yeah, Tsubaki?!
[12:42] ---
Let's try to be a little quieter...
[12:44] ---
No need! All this "left,
right" stuff is a pain!
[12:48] ---
Going straight forward is more my style!
[12:52] ---
But the enemy will show up if we
draw too much attention to ourselves...
[12:56] ---
Fine by me! I'll kick the
crap out of 'em all!
[13:03] ---
Is he always like that?
[13:05] ---
Sorry. Black☆Star is a straightforward boy.
[13:16] ---
You're...!
[13:17] ---
Yes, it's me! The one and only Black☆...
[13:23] ---
Shut up, runt!
[13:25] ---
I win!
[13:27] ---
Is she always like that?
[13:29] ---
Sorry. Angela is very free-spirited...
[13:33] ---
Hmph!
[13:39] ---
There's nothing I can do
about Death's barrier...
[13:43] ---
The castle is in shambles.
Is watching quietly all I can do now?
[13:50] ---
Lady Arachne...
[13:51] ---
The situation is very grave.
You should escape right away.
[13:55] ---
No. I will remain here.
[13:58] ---
Oh, but...
[14:01] ---
The Kishin will return to
my open arms. Without fail.
[14:08] ---
I guess believing that is all I can do...
[14:11] ---
Wouldn't it be rather
boring to give up imagining?
[14:17] ---
Boring? I take issue with
putting it like that.
[14:22] ---
If there's any other way of
putting it, then please let me know!
[14:29] ---
You've always been like that.
Simple and cowardly!
[14:37] ---
Getting rid of your anxieties
like that one by one
[14:41] ---
was the only way you could be at ease.
[14:45] ---
You partnered with Vajra
and fought alongside us
[14:50] ---
so that we could share those anxieties...
[14:57] ---
but you betrayed not only innocent
people, but even your own partner.
[15:06] ---
I'm surprised someone like
you would say such naïve things.
[15:10] ---
Rules and order cannot
hold anxiety in check.
[15:13] ---
Denying that anxiety with madness
will only bring forth new anxiety!
[15:20] ---
It's so simple. Why can't
you understand it?!
[15:25] ---
Even a child could tell you that
doing that will leave you with nothing!
[15:39] ---
The truth cannot be had by clinging
to order coated with rhetoric and lies.
[15:46] ---
Covering up what is inconvenient
and putting off the real issues
[15:52] ---
will not hide all the rips in it.
[15:58] ---
I guess you really are
beyond salvation after all.
[16:02] ---
Is providing false peace really that noble?
[16:07] ---
I'm at least confident that
I'm not a nuisance like you!
[16:14] ---
Now you're just quibbling!
[16:20] ---
What's wrong with surrendering
oneself to madness?
[16:24] ---
That's what's known as
the height of arrogance!
[16:29] ---
I'm sorry, but you don't seem to
be living very commendably yourself.
[16:36] ---
What's happening, Kid?!
[16:42] ---
Hey! This looks bad!
[16:45] ---
Oh...
[16:47] ---
This battle is on an incredible level...
[16:49] ---
I was planning to lend
assistance when I found a chance,
[16:52] ---
but there's nothing I can possibly do!
[16:55] ---
This is too much, even for
a Death Scythe like me!
[16:59] ---
Just trying not to get caught
in the fight is hard enough!
[17:04] ---
I think it's time we end this.
[17:08] ---
I agree with that sentiment.
[17:11] ---
But you're the one who will be finished.
[17:15] ---
Oh? Did I get on your bad side?
[17:18] ---
Sometimes I need to be serious.
[17:22] ---
Because I am the guard of
the law and order of this world.
[17:28] ---
I see.
[17:30] ---
It's a shame we couldn't come to
any sort of mutual understanding.
[17:35] ---
I suppose it's only natural, though.
[17:40] ---
As an old friend, let me
give you a piece of advice.
[17:45] ---
Being bound by these so-called
rules and order that you've created
[17:50] ---
will be fatal.
[17:53] ---
As you can see...
[18:28] ---
Father...
[18:31] ---
Father! Father!
[18:37] ---
Father!
[18:46] ---
So this is how this world ends...
[18:51] ---
It appears all that extra free
time has netted you rubbish ideas.
[18:57] ---
Just what lies ahead for
a world filled with madness?
[19:02] ---
Excalibur, huh...
[19:05] ---
I don't care if there's nothing.
As long as fear doesn't exist there.
[19:12] ---
Fool!
[19:14] ---
That phrase certainly brings back memories.
[19:17] ---
However, the result is
as you can plainly see.
[19:23] ---
You fall for such easy tricks
[19:26] ---
because you're bound by
pathetic rules and ties of obligation...
[19:28] ---
Fool! Rules are decided
upon by each individual!
[19:34] ---
That's precisely why Death lost to me.
[19:39] ---
Not having to live with tiresome
rules about parents and friends is...
[19:58] ---
What's happening?
[19:59] ---
Huh?
[20:00] ---
N-Not good... This is not good...
[20:04] ---
I need to repair myself immediately...
At this rate, I'll also be...
[20:09] ---
I have no time to waste!
[20:11] ---
Huh?
[20:17] ---
That can't be...
[20:19] ---
Lord Death... lost?
[20:35] ---
Asura...
[20:45] ---
I knew you would come back to me!
[20:52] ---
I was worried this whole time...
[20:56] ---
This whole time?
[20:58] ---
Yes...
[21:01] ---
Arachne...
[21:03] ---
Yes?
[21:05] ---
I'm afraid...
[21:08] ---
Don't worry! I'll...!
[21:12] ---
I'm afraid of you.
[21:15] ---
Huh?
[21:22] ---
Asura...
[21:33] ---
A witch's soul...
[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] ---
This is going to be the final
battle. Are you ready, Soul?
[23:22] ---
Yeah. Ready when you are.
[23:24] ---
Did you wash your face?
[23:25] ---
Yeah.
[23:25] ---
Did you brush your teeth?
[23:26] ---
Yeah.
[23:27] ---
Did you get a handkerchief?
[23:28] ---
Yeah.
[23:28] ---
Did you eat breakfast?
[23:29] ---
Yeah.
[23:30] ---
Did you go to the bathroom?
[23:30] ---
Yeah.
[23:31] ---
Did you trim your toenails?
[23:32] ---
No, I haven't...
[23:34] ---
Then should we put this off until tomorrow?
[23:37] ---
Next time on Soul Eater, episode 49:
[23:40] ---
"Asura Wakes...
To the End of the World?"
[23:43] ---
Your soul is mine!
