[00:14] Narrator
    This is the tale of a genius patissier
    who died before his time,
[00:19] Narrator
    and was reincarnated as the son
    of a poor noble in another world
[00:23] Narrator
    to pursue a world full
    of desserts and smiles.
[00:27] Narrator
    It's a tale that is at once cold
    and unsparing, and syrupy sweet.
[00:33] Narrator
    His dream is to create this
    world's very own land of sweets!

    Licorice!
[02:22] Caera
    Milady?!
[02:23] Pas
    Licorice!
[02:25] Caera
    L-Lord Pastry!
[02:27] Caera
    Wh-What in the world were you...
[02:31] Pas
    I'll explain later.
[02:33] Pas
    Leave this to me!
[02:35] Retes
    Well, well! Hasn't this become amusing?
[02:39] Pas
    Licorice!
[02:48] Pas
    Licorice!
[02:58] Licorice
    I'm sorry.
[03:01] Licorice
    I'm sorry... Pastry.
[03:05] Pas
    L-Listen. Count Retes was just...
[03:10] Pas
    Look, she just sees me as a 9-year-old ki—
[03:14] Licorice
    It's not just that.
[03:17] Licorice
    In the great hall... everyone was...
     talking about you.
[03:23] Licorice
    All those women...
[03:25] Licorice
    And hearing them like that...
[03:29] Licorice
    I began to imagine the most awful things.
[03:33] Pas
    Awful things?
[03:34] Licorice
    If someone else were to express
    their fondness for you...
[03:42] Licorice
    Then maybe... you wouldn't...
[03:46] Licorice
    You wouldn't want me anymore.
[03:49] Pas
    I would never—
[03:52] Licorice
    My sister, Petra...
[03:55] Licorice
    She can talk with anyone so easily.
[04:01] Licorice
    She can be so bold. Everyone likes her.
[04:05] Licorice
    By comparison, I...
[04:09] Licorice
    If only I were more like her.
[04:15] Pas
    Even if you have trouble talking,
[04:17] Pas
    and even if you're reserved,
[04:19] Pas
    that's just part of who you are.
[04:23] Pas
    You don't have to be Lady Petra.
[04:28] Pas
    I like you just the way you are.
[04:32] Pas
    And I'm sure I'll only come
    to like you even more.
[04:39] Pas
    Will you trust me,
    and believe what I'm saying?
[04:46] Licorice
    Yes...
[04:50] Pas
    Could you wait a minute?
[04:53] Pas
    Please, just wait here.
[04:56] Pas
    Trust me, no matter what.
[05:02] Pas
    Please.
[05:37] Pas
    Sorry to keep you waiting!
[05:40] Licorice
    That's all right.
[05:48] Licorice
    Is this... like before?
[05:51] Pas
    Yes.
[05:52] Pas
    But it's not quite like the one from before.
[05:56] Pas
    I made this for you.
[05:58] Pas
    A fresh, special one, just for you.
[06:03] Pas
    Would you do me the honor of accepting it?
[06:12] Pas
    I... I'd really like you to eat it.
[06:18] Pas
    I made it just for you, after all.
[06:36] Licorice
    The aroma of the fruit, and the sweetness...
[06:39] Licorice
    They're filling my mouth.
[06:43] Licorice
    The taste of happiness
    I shared alone with Pastry...
[06:47] Licorice
    Just for us.
[06:50] Licorice
    No one else. Just me and him...
[07:01] Licorice
    R-Really, it's not...
[07:04] Licorice
    I'm not crying from sadness.
[07:11] Licorice
    It's delicious.
[07:14] Pas
    Hey, Licorice.
[07:15] Pas
    I know this treat by the name "candy apple."
[07:19] Licorice
    Candy... apple?
[07:22] Pas
    But there are other names for it.
[07:25] Licorice
    Other names?
[07:27] Pas
    It's very simple to make,
[07:30] Pas
    so it's made in many places,
[07:33] Pas
    and has come to have just as many names.
[07:38] Pas
    Toffee apple.
[07:40] Pas
    Heaven's apple.
[07:42] Pas
    Apple of paradise.
[07:44] Pas
    And...
[07:47] Pas
    apple of love.
[07:53] Pas
    My feelings for you are unwavering,
[07:55] Pas
    and I've poured them all into this treat.
[08:02] Pas
    Please...
[08:04] Pas
    Licorice.
[08:05] Pas
    Will you trust me?
[08:10] Pas
    I... I want to make you happy.
[08:14] Pas
    I want to make you smile.
[08:18] Pas
    I want nothing more than to see your smile...
[08:22] Pas
    Licorice.
[08:28] Licorice
    It's delicious!
[08:30] Pas
    Licorice!
[08:32] Licorice
    Thank you, Pastry!
[08:35] Licorice
    And... I'm sorry.
[08:39] Pas
    Such a beautiful smile...
[08:41] Pas
    I came this close to losing it.
[08:45] Pas
    My dream is to create a land of sweets,
[08:48] Pas
    and bring smiles to the faces
    of everyone in this world.
[08:52] Pas
    I can't do that if I can't at least
    bring smiles to the people I care about.
[08:58] Pas
    I'll make it together with Licorice.
[09:00] Pas
    A land of sweets...
[09:05] Caera
    We came to fetch you, milady.
[09:08] Nicolo
    I saw you, Young Master!
[09:10] Nicolo
    Great work!
[09:11] Pas
    Nicolo... how long were you watching?
[09:14] Nicolo
    How long?
[09:16] Nicolo
    Oh, right.
[09:17] Nicolo
    Since you came back with
    that "apple of love" thing!
[09:21] Nicolo
    Whoo, there's the loverboy
    everyone's talking about!
[09:24] Nicolo
    The Fief of Morteln's own gigolo!
[09:26] Nicolo
    Ladykiller!
[09:28] Pas
    Is that right?
[09:30] Pas
    Nicolo...
[09:32] Pas
    You seem eager for more work lately.
[09:36] Pas
    So when we get back home,
    I'll double your workload!
[09:41] Nicolo
    U-Um, Young Master... you're scaring me.
[09:44] Nicolo
    You're joking about the
    doubled workload, right?
[09:47] Pas
    Really? Double sounds like a joke, does it?
[09:51] Pas
    I'll triple it, then!
[09:53] Nicolo
    Forgive me!
[09:56] Nicolo
    I won't tell your father,
    so please, forgive me!
[10:00] Caera
    Your good spirits seem to be restored.
[10:07] Pas
    She's burning holes in my back.
[10:11] Agnes
    Pas, my love!
[10:13] Agnes
    Welcome home!
[10:17] Pas
    I'm back... M-Mother.
[10:22] Agnes
    Did you enjoy the tea tasting ceremony?
[10:24] Casserole
    Good work on your first diplomatic mission.
[10:29] Pas
    I-I can't breathe, Mother!
[10:32] Casserole
    Come, Agnes. Release the boy.
[10:34] Casserole
    I really think you're choking him.
[10:37] Licorice
    I've returned.
[10:39] Agnes
    Welcome home.
[10:43] Licorice
    Is something...
[10:45] Agnes
    Pas zapped himself back here this afternoon
[10:48] Agnes
    and busied himself with something-or-other...
[10:52] Agnes
    Could it have been something
    for you, my dear?
[10:56] Pas
    Erk!
[10:59] Agnes
    I'd love to hear all about what happened!
[11:05] Agnes
    Pas, dear!
[11:08] Pas
    Please, be gentle!
[11:11] Nicolo
    She might be more intimidating
    than the count...
[11:25] Pas
    I... I'm exhausted.
[11:30] Feuille
    You had to humor the mistress
    for two straight hours, eh?
[11:34] Feuille
    Well done.
[11:35] Feuille
    Want some bean tea?
[11:38] Pas
    Sure, thanks.
[11:43] Feuille
    Help yourself!
[11:44] Pas
    Thanks so much...
SIGN    Slurp
[11:49] Pas
    That's so good!
[11:51] Feuille
    What's all this here?
[11:55] Pas
    Oh, that's leftover wrapping
    paper for the hard candy.
[11:59] Pas
    Mother and I wrapped them as I humored her.
[12:05] Feuille
    Wrapping paper for the hard candy?
[12:07] Feuille
    Wait...
[12:08] Feuille
    What in the world is this?
[12:10] Pas
    It's just what it looks like.
[12:13] Feuille
    You used this as wrapping paper?
[12:15] Feuille
    What were you thinking?
[12:17] Pas
    Revenge for her messing with me and Licorice.
[12:21] Pas
    A minor thing.
[12:24] Retes
    How dare he! That awful child!
[12:28] Coaton
    P-Please remain calm, Your Ladyship!
[12:32] Retes
    He sent candy to all the
    nobles wrapped in that paper!
[12:36] Retes
    And because of that...
[12:37] Retes
    People are spreading rumors
    that I "like them young"!
[12:43] Coaton
    And ever since,
[12:44] Coaton
    we've been receiving dozens of offers
    every day from far-too-young prospects...
[12:50] Coaton
    This one's eight years old.
[12:52] Coaton
    This one's ten years old.
[12:55] Retes
    He's completely gumming up the works!
[12:58] Retes
    You'll pay for this, child!
SIGN    Estate of Margrave Hubarek
[13:03] Attendant
    My lord, there are stirrings
    from Margrave Lutoroute.
[13:09] Hubarek
    As expected, he'll be making
    his move before the summer.
[13:12] Attendant
    He seems to have realized that
    the union between our house
[13:17] Attendant
    and Duke Kadlecek's would strengthen our army.
[13:19] Attendant
    And he's decided to invade before then.
[13:22] Hubarek
    Hence his earlier aggressions?
[13:26] Hubarek
    It sounds like something Lutoroute would do.
[13:29] Attendant
    He seems eager to conclude
    your long rivalry at last.
[13:35] Hubarek
    So? What's the scale of his army?
[13:37] Attendant
    Reports say it's almost
    thirty thousand strong.
[13:40] Hubarek
    Thirty thousand, eh?
[13:42] Attendant
    I can't say we're prepared to
    defend against a force that large.
[13:47] Hubarek
    Send a messenger to Duke Kadlecek
    in the royal capital at once.
[13:51] Hubarek
    I'll compose a letter
    requesting reinforcements.
[13:53] Attendant
    Milord.
[13:58] Hubarek
    Damn you, Lutoroute.
[14:01] Pas
    Chu, chu, takokai na...
[14:04] Pas
    Chu, chu, takokai na...
[14:07] Feuille
    Kid? What's that weird little chant?
[14:11] Pas
    It's a kind of counting song.
[14:14] Pas
    The profits from the hard candy
[14:15] Pas
    plus the matchmaking photos
[14:17] Pas
    total up to 384 coins!
[14:20] Feuille
    Hey! You reached your target!
[14:24] Pas
    Yes!
[14:26] Pas
    The silvers and these four extra
    leftover golds will go into my savings.
[14:31] Feuille
    That's an awfully high amount
    for someone your age.
[14:35] Pas
    Appropriate recompense for
    my time making sweets!
[14:40] Feuille
    Well, you earned us a profit,
    so I doubt the boss will complain.
[14:45] Feuille
    Well, will you be using
    it for what you expected?
[14:48] Pas
    Yes, ask the traveling merchant
    to round up a hundred goats!
[14:54] Feuille
    What?
[14:54] Feuille
    Earlier, you said you'd want 70 or 80...
[14:58] Pas
    We'll overbid for a hundred,
[15:00] Pas
    then probably end up
    compromising at 70 to 80.
[15:04] Feuille
    That's dirty business.
[15:06] Pas
    See if you can get him to
    throw in three donkeys!
[15:10] Feuille
    You better rein it in a little.
[15:12] Feuille
    You're gonna make the merchant cry.
[15:14] Pas
    Goat milk and cheese are amazing!
[15:17] Pas
    They're just perfect for use in sweets!
[15:22] Pas
    What will I make?
[15:25] Feuille
    Goats, huh?
[15:26] Feuille
    We tried to raise those
    in our early days here.
[15:32] Pas
    Father told me about it.
[15:34] Pas
    Goats will eat anything,
    so they're easy to raise.
[15:38] Feuille
    Yeah.
[15:40] Feuille
    But since they'll eat anything...
[15:43] Feuille
    With our land barren enough as it was,
[15:45] Feuille
    we couldn't afford to hold them,
    and the boss let them go.
[15:50] Pas
    But now the land's rich and green!
[15:54] Pas
    Now I can start adding more livestock,
[15:56] Pas
    and take another step
    toward my land of sweets!
[15:59] Feuille
    So will we be eating the chickens now?
[16:04] Pas
    Don't be ridiculous!
[16:05] Feuille
    Wh-What?!
[16:06] Pas
    Chickens are absolutely essential!
[16:10] Pas
    If anything, we'll need more of them!
[16:13] Pas
    Cakes, cookies, custards, meringue!
[16:16] Pas
    We need eggs for all of them!
[16:18] Pas
    We cannot be a fief without eggs!
[16:21] Feuille
    So it's the sweets we're
    worried about, right?
[16:24] Feuille
    But in that case...
[16:27] Feuille
    The lack of workers might be an issue.
[16:29] Pas
    I'll need to mull that one over.
[16:33] Pas
    Let's take a breather!
[16:39] Pas
    Feuille...
[16:40] Pas
    Would you take a taste of this?
[16:45] Feuille
    What's this stuff?
[16:47] Pas
    It's extracted from sweet sorghum,
    a particular kind of sorghum grass.
[16:56] Feuille
    Seems pretty sticky...
[16:58] Pas
    I tried to boil it down a bit to thicken it,
[17:02] Pas
    but it didn't really work.
[17:03] Pas
    Still, that shouldn't affect flavor.
[17:07] Feuille
    That's sweet!
[17:08] Feuille
    It's incredibly sweet!
[17:10] Pas
    It's a first experiment in making sugar.
[17:13] Feuille
    Sugar?
[17:14] Pas
    I'll improve the recipe and turn Morteln
    into a producer of confectioneries!
[17:19] Pas
    If I can just produce my own sugar,
    I can produce as many desserts as I—
[17:23] Feuille
    If you say so.
[17:25] Feuille
    Just don't use your magic,
    or the boss might smite you again.
[17:30] Pas
    I swear, I've learned my lesson!
[17:43] Licorice
    What are you doing?
[17:45] Pas
    We're making a juicer!
[17:48] Licorice
    A juicer?
[17:51] Pas
    Yes, it's done!
[17:56] Pas
    I'll show you.
[17:59] Pas
    We've placed sorghum
    grass stalks in the cask,
[18:02] Pas
    and we're going to extract juice from them.
[18:06] Marc
    Hey!
[18:07] Marc
    I can't reach it!
[18:10] Lumi
    You're so short, Marc.
[18:12] Marc
    Shut up! You're shorter than I am!
[18:15] Pas
    Maybe I messed up the measurements...
[18:18] Marc
    Fine. Get on, Lumi!
[18:20] Lumi
    Okay!
[18:25] Pas
    Lumi, go slow so that it doesn't break!
[18:31] Marc
    You're heavy, damn it!
[18:34] Lumi
    What was that?!
[18:35] Lumi
    You wanna fight, you jerk?
[18:36] Pas
    Please don't fight!
[18:38] Pas
    Keep pulling it, slowly!
[18:40] Lumi
    Got it!
[18:42] Marc
    You're so heavy!
[18:44] Lumi
    There you go again!
[18:46] Pas
    Lumi, no!
[18:50] Licorice
    Look out!
[18:55] Licorice
    A-Are you all right?
[18:57] Pas
    Was anyone hurt?
[18:59] Lumi
    Ow...
[19:00] Lumi
    I-I'm okay.
[19:02] Lumi
    Damn it...
[19:05] Pas
    I guess it won't be that easy.
[19:09] Pas
    I think I got the idea right,
[19:11] Pas
    but it's just not tough enough...
[19:14] Pas
    Maybe I should make it all from iron?
[19:17] Licorice
    That might work, but...
[19:22] Pas
    If you have an idea, tell me.
[19:24] Pas
    The purpose of a prototype
    is to be improved upon.
[19:30] Pas
    In sweets, too, you can only make something
    good after trial, error, and improvement.
[19:36] Pas
    Trial and error are essential
    to producing sweets!
[19:40] Pas
    You make a thousand good
    sweets by making one first!
[19:43] Lumi
    You know what he's talking about?
[19:46] Marc
    No idea.
[19:47] Licorice
    I don't have the diagram or anything...
[19:50] Licorice
    But in Hubarek, when they make wine,
[19:53] Licorice
    they use something like your juicer there.
SIGN    Squeeze
[19:59] Licorice
    I think it involves two
    people turning a lever...
[20:05] Pas
    Wine? That might just do it!
[20:08] Pas
    I see!
[20:09] Pas
    If a tool for that purpose already exists,
[20:12] Pas
    let's figure out a way to get one!
[20:15] Pas
    That'll reduce mistakes!
[20:17] Pas
    Thanks, Licorice!
[20:20] Licorice
    It was nothing.
[20:22] Marc
    What was all that crap about
    trial and error, then?
[20:27] Lumi
    Sheesh.
[20:28] Lumi
    You made me fall on my butt for no reason.
[20:31] Pas
    I'll ask you to be my taste-tester, then.
[20:36] Lumi
    I forgive you!
[20:37] Marc
    You never change.
[20:40] Pas
    Time is money!
[20:42] Pas
    I'm gonna get back and talk
    to Feuille about the juicer!
[20:47] Pas
    Sorry, can you guys clean up for me here?
[20:50] Marc
    You got it!
[20:54] Licorice
    Pas is having so much fun...
[20:56] Pas
    Sugar, goat milk, fresh eggs,
[21:00] Pas
    cheese, flour, yogurt!
[21:04] Pas
    I'm so excited!
[21:06] Pas
    What dessert will I make first?
[21:09] Pas
    I'm gonna bake my heart out!
[21:12] Pas
    A cake? No, maybe I'll try flan?
[21:16] Pas
    Choux a la creme, maybe?!
[21:24] Pas
    Father! You're back?
[21:29] Pas
    How were Duke Kadlecek and Lord Squale?
[21:36] Pas
    Father?
[21:38] Feuille
    Kid... we've got bad news.
[21:42] Pas
    What is it?
[21:46] Casserole
    War has begun.
[21:49] Casserole
    It started between Hubarek's lands in
    the east and their neighbor, Lutoroute.
[22:01] Pas
    War?
