[00:40] Alice     Welcome back, Kirito. [00:43] Kirito     I made you worry for so long. [00:47] Kirito     Thank you, Alice. [00:50] Alice     Kirito. [00:51] Asuna     It will be all right, Alice. [00:55] Asuna     Let's believe in Kirito.     We need to hurry to the World's End Altar. [01:24] Alice     Asuna! [01:25] Asuna     I'm... all right. [01:27] Asuna     Let's hurry. [01:29] Asuna     We don't have much time     before the altar closes. [01:41] Alice     Kirito. [01:43] Alice     There are so many things     I want to tell and ask you. [01:48] Alice     You have to win.     Win and come back to me again! SIGN    The Night-Sky Blade [03:38] Kikuoka     According to Higa's calculations,     no matter how fast we disconnect the STLs, [03:43] Kikuoka     two hundred years will have passed in there. [03:49] Kirito     Who are you? [03:52] Gabriel     One who seeks, steals, and robs. [03:56] Kirito     What are you seeking? [03:58] Gabriel     Souls. [04:01] Gabriel     And who are you? Why are you here? [04:05] Gabriel     What gives you the right to stand before me? [04:08] Kirito     Who... am I? [04:12] Kirito     I'm... [04:30] Eugeo     Kirito. You're Kirito the Swordsman. [04:35] Kirito     I'm Kirito! Kirito the Swordsman! [04:44] Kirito     What's your name? [04:46] Gabriel     Gabriel. My name is Gabriel Miller. [05:13] Kirito     Let's go, Gabriel! [05:22] Kirito     Generate All Elements! [05:28] Kirito     Discharge! [06:10] Gabriel     I estimate another five minutes     until they reach the system console. [06:15] Gabriel     I'll give you three minutes. [06:17] Gabriel     Be sure to keep me entertained. [06:22] Kirito     How generous of you. [06:26] Kirito     Fine. I'll entertain you. [06:42] Gabriel     I stole this from you. [08:19] Kirito     I thought I just had to prolong this battle     long enough for Asuna and Alice to escape, [08:24] Kirito     but I was being too optimistic. [08:26] Kirito     I'll have to spend     the next 200 years here if I fail. [08:31] Kirito     No, maybe that was what I was hoping for. [08:36] Kirito     To stay forever in a true alternative world     that's surpassed even Aincrad. [08:41] Kirito     I never stopped to consider     the amount of grief, sorrow and tears [08:46] Kirito     that would cause for Alice, Asuna,     and everyone who saved me. [08:51] Kirito     In the end, I'm the kind of person     who doesn't truly understand how others feel. [08:57] Eugeo     You're wrong, Kirito. [09:00] Eugeo     If you didn't want to leave this world,     it wasn't for your own sake. [09:06] Eugeo     It's because you love the people you met here. [09:20] Eugeo     But that's not true of your enemy. [09:22] Eugeo     That man is the one     who doesn't understand how others feel. [09:25] Eugeo     He can't understand them. [09:26] Eugeo     That's why he seeks. And tries to steal.     And tries to destroy. [09:31] Eugeo     And that's because... [09:34] Eugeo     he fears them. [09:42] Gabriel     It seems he's afraid now. [09:45] Gabriel     The fear that wells up when someone     as cocky as him is on the brink of death... [09:50] Gabriel     I wonder how it tastes. [10:09] Gabriel     Your emotions, memories,     heart and soul... everything! [10:15] Gabriel     I'll devour them all now! [10:18] Kirito     As if you'd find... the heart or memories there. [10:24] Kirito     The body... is just a vessel. [10:28] Kirito     Memories are always... [10:31] Gabriel     What? [10:33] Kirito     Release Recollection! [10:38] Kirito     Release Recollection! [11:17] Sinon     What's this? [11:21] Sinon     I see. This night is Kirito's heart! [11:25] Sinon     Then, please... send my heart to him, too. [11:38] Leafa     Big Brother. [11:40] Leafa     Send the last of my strength     to Big Brother's sword. [11:52] Iskahn     Hey, Sheyta. [11:54] Iskahn     What do you think it means     to have power... to be strong? [11:59] Sheyta     You already know the answer. [12:02] Sheyta     There's a greater power than anger or hatred. [12:28] Lisbeth     Kirito. [12:31] Lisbeth     Hey, Silica. I... [12:34] Lisbeth     ...love Kirito after all! [12:37] Silica     So do I! [12:49] Lisbeth     It'll reach you, right, Kirito? [12:52] Lisbeth     Because our souls are connected! [12:57] Renly     What it means to live.     To live, fight, and connect our lives and hearts. [13:04] Renly     And that... that's the only proof of strength. [13:31] Selka     Eugeo, please. [13:33] Selka     Protect my sister and Kirito. [14:41] Alice     Kirito! [14:43] Alice     It may be an ephemeral soul     that only lived a brief time as an artificial knight, [14:49] Alice     but these emotions,     these sensations flooding my heart are real! [15:02] Asuna     Kirito. [15:14] Gabriel     Null... [15:16] Gabriel     Null... [15:18] Gabriel     Nu... ll... [15:24] Gabriel     Null! [16:15] Shasta     Cast away all murderous intent. [16:17] Shasta     His empty soul cannot be slashed     by an Incarnation of murder. [16:21] Bercouli     Have no fear, boy. [16:24] Bercouli     The weight of the world itself     rests on your sword. [16:28] Administrator     Now, show me. [16:30] Administrator     The strength of willpower     you inherited from me. SIGN    Kirito, you must believe. SIGN    In the hearts of the many people you love and who love you. [16:49] Kirito     Starburst... Stream! [17:00] Gabriel     Null! Null! [17:04] Kirito     Take this, Gabriel! [17:08] Gabriel     Null! [17:16] Gabriel     Null! [17:33] Eugeo     Come on, now's your chance, Kirito! [17:36] Kirito     Thank you, Eugeo. [17:56] Gabriel     It's pointless! [17:57] Gabriel     I'm going to drink every last drop,     and devour all of you! [18:01] Kirito     As if you could! [18:02] Kirito     Someone who's scared and intimidated     by the power of the human heart! [20:18] Kirito     Goodbye, Eugeo. [21:03] Kirito     Thank goodness. [21:05] Kirito     They were both able to log out. [21:09] Kirito     Good luck, Alice. [21:16] Kirito     Now then, 200 years, huh? [21:21] Kirito     Asuna, Sinon, Leafa, everyone... [21:28] Kirito     I'm sorry. [21:57] Asuna     Kirito. [22:00] Kirito     Asuna? [23:36] Kirito     Next time: Beyond Time.
