    The religious state of Sarabael.

    All of it citizens are
    adherents of the same faith,

    resulting in a nation united by belief.
[00:18] Ysley
    Good afternoon. It's nice to meet you.
[00:20] Ysley
    We're gods!
[00:22] Sagishi
    Don't be ridiculous! Do you realize
     who you're talking to?!
[00:25] Sagishi
    I am the one true holy arbiter of the
    Divine Prontea who once blessed this land!
[00:29] Sagishi
    I am the Third Holy Pontiff
    of Sarabael, Sagishi Sakushu!
[00:34] Paula
    "The Divine Prontea"?
[00:36] Ysley
    Well, let's just say this
    country has its own backstory.
[00:42] Ysley
    Okay then. Stick to the plan,
    all right, Paula?
[00:44] Paula
    Right.
[00:48] Sagishi
    How's that?! Behold the righteous wrath
     of God's divine punishment!
[00:52] Sagishi
    Another unclean soul has
    been delivered unto salv...
[01:01] (Flashback) Paula
    Is this good enough? But I can't
    fly with them or anything.

[01:05] (Flashback) Paula
    They're just for decoration.
[01:07] (Flashback) Ysley
    That should suffice.
[01:08] (Flashback) Paula
    So, what now?
[01:11] (Flashback) Ysley
    Just make something up.
[01:12] Paula
    That isn't very helpful...
[01:15] Paula
    Uh, I came here today to talk with you all.
[01:20] Sagishi
    What are you all doing?!
    Don't let her tricks fool you!
[01:23] Sagishi
    Those wings are fake! It's just a costume!
[01:26] Paula
    T-Technically, yes...
[01:29] Sagishi
    Taste the lord's might!
[01:36] Paula
    This is gonna be rough.
    They aren't listening at all—
[01:42] Paula
    Huh?
[01:42] Sagishi
    I-I had no idea you were truly a god!
     Forgive my rudeness!

    Now that everyone's gathered around,
    I'd like to begin the discussion.
SIGN    Right-Wing Captain of Sarabael's Military Order
    Deban Koredaake
[03:27] Deban
    These brats are supposed to be gods?!
[03:30] Deban
    If you want to make claims like that,
    let's see some damn evidence!
[03:34] Ysley
    Evidence, eh?
[03:36] Ysley
    I can't say we have any of that.
[03:39] Ysley
    All we can really do is demonstrate power
    and speed that prove we're not human...
[03:42] Ysley
    There's also the fact that
     firearms don't work on us.
[03:47] Ysley
    We are the same beings as your Divine Prontea,
     however, so you can consider us gods.
[03:52] Paula
    Hey, can I ask something?
[03:54] Paula
    What exactly is the connection between
    Prontea-san and this country?
[03:58] Priests
    You're a god, but you don't know that?
[04:01] Ysley
    I'm afraid this particular god hasn't
    been around for very long yet.
[04:04] Ysley
    Why don't you explain for her, Mr. Pontiff?
[04:07] Sagishi
    O-Of course...
[04:08] Sagishi
    The land of Sarabael is said to predate
    a supposed collapse of human civilization.
[04:13] Sagishi
    It's the oldest true holy land
    in the world that's still intact.
[04:16] Sagishi
    Our history states that
    it was founded by God.
[04:20] (Flashback) Ysley
    This country was actually
    founded by Rin and the old guard
[04:23] (Flashback) Ysley
    before the demons were sealed away.
[04:27] (Flashback) Ysley
    Although it was originally
    just an underground shelter
[04:29] (Flashback) Ysley
    they dug up to keep the humans safe in...
[04:33] Sagishi
    However, for centuries,
    few chose to stay in this land.
[04:38] Sagishi
    Landslides, drought,
    flooding any time there was rain...
[04:42] Sagishi
    It was a very harsh place to survive.
[04:45] Sagishi
    Then God appeared to us...
[04:49] Sagishi
    Over the course of days,
    he changed the landscape itself,
[04:51] Sagishi
    tamed the floods,
[04:53] Sagishi
    and transformed this land
    into something far more habitable.
[04:58] Sagishi
    Before he returned to the celestial
    realm, he spake thus...
[05:02] (Flashback) Prontea
    You can consider this place
    sacred if you want,
[05:05] (Flashback) Prontea
    but don't let that stop
    you from improving on it!
[05:09] (Flashback) Prontea
    Develop it in whatever way makes
    it easier to live in, okay?
[05:12] (Flashback) Prontea
    See ya around!
[05:14] Paula
    Yeah, okay, I get it now.
[05:16] Paula
    In other words, he was fixing up
    Rin-san's sloppy construction...
[05:20] Sagishi
    And now, a hundred years later,
[05:23] Sagishi
    we are faithfully carrying out the command
     passed down by the Divine Prontea.
[05:29] Paula
    But he didn't mention anything about
    purging or "saving" other countries.
[05:35] Sagishi
    N-Now then, what can we help
     you almighty gods with?
[05:39] Sagishi
    Was I speaking out of place to
    declare myself your servant?
[05:43] Ysley
    You're right. Let's get to business.
[05:46] Ysley
    In the near future, the gods,
    including your Divine Prontea,
[05:49] Ysley
    will destroy the Zoble Empire.
[05:51] Priests
    What?!
[05:52] Priests
    The Zoble Empire?!
[05:53] Ysley
    It will be appear to be a military coup d'état
[05:55] Ysley
    that results in a regime change.
[05:58] Ysley
    And it will leave Sarabael and Hotaena
    as the world's remaining superpowers.
[06:03] Ysley
    Now, to prevent global chaos,
    we're prohibiting war between you two.
[06:08] Ysley
    After the coup, both Sarabael and Hotaena
    will support their efforts to rebuild,
[06:13] Ysley
    resulting in a tight-knit peace
    between all three nations.
[06:16] Priests
    With Hotaena?
[06:17] Priests
    You expect us to work alongside
    a country full of apostates?
[06:21] Ysley
    What're you yammering about?
[06:22] Ysley
    This country has been doing whatever
    it wants in the name of god.
[06:26] Ysley
    The only "god" you care about
[06:28] Ysley
    is the symbol that you
    use unite your citizens.
[06:31] Ysley
    And you use the authority that
    affords you to enrich yourselves.
[06:37] Ysley
    I honestly think that's great!
[06:41] Ysley
    I mean, what did the first pontiff,
[06:42] Ysley
    who earnestly worshiped god
    and spent all his time praying, accomplish?
[06:45] Ysley
    Your people were hungry and unprepared
    to deal with pandemics and natural disasters,
[06:49] Ysley
    leading to nothing but decline.
[06:51] Ysley
    But since you've taken over,
    religion has become a business.
[06:54] Ysley
    And by using your faithful as slave labor,
[06:56] Ysley
    you've turned this country
    into a major player.
[06:58] Ysley
    In the eyes of human society,
     that might make you scum.
[07:01] Ysley
    But as far as us gods care?
    We really don't.
[07:05] Ysley
    Our only concerns are about excessive
    environmental damage and large-scale war.
[07:10] Ysley
    We don't want you all dying. That's all.
[07:14] Paula
    I don't really get the specifics
    about all this human stuff,
[07:17] Paula
    but try to get along with
    Hotaena from now on, okay?
[07:23] Priests
    What should we do, Your Holiness?
[07:25] Sagishi
    We'll do as the gods have
    decreed and avoid war.
[07:29] Sagishi
    However, everything else
    will be business as usual.
[07:31] Sagishi
    We'll continue to sell sham relics
     according to improvised revelations,
[07:34] Sagishi
    keep sending psychics and entertainers
    to other countries to proselytize,
[07:39] Sagishi
    increase our sway in the political
    sphere of other nations,
[07:41] Sagishi
    continue gathering wealth, running
     the country, and protecting our citizens.
[07:48] Sagishi
    It is the will of the gods!
[07:53] Obami
    "The bodies of Idaten, including their
    clothing, constitute a single unit."
[07:58] Obami
    "Anything detached from the
    main body will vanish over time,"
[08:01] Obami
    "so it is impossible to retrieve a sample."
[08:06] Obami
    How did you come to these conclusions?
[08:09] Miku
    Right here. The blood that was on Gyudo's
    nose vanishes without a trace later on.
[08:14] Miku
    And Four-Eyes' glasses
    also magically get fixed.
[08:17] Miku
    I'd say the bodies of Idaten are
    less "matter" as we understand it,
[08:20] Miku
    and more so a kind of "existence."
[08:24] Miku
    It's all in the report for you to peruse,
[08:27] Miku
    so is it okay if I focus
    on the footage for now?
[08:30] Obami
    It's impressive you were able to figure
    out all this from so little video.
[08:35] Obami
    This could be the key
    to finding a weakness in the Idaten.
[08:41] Miku
    Someone's thinking positively.
[08:43] Miku
    To be honest, we're way past the point
    I think that's likely to happen...

[08:55] Merku
    Hang in there, everyone!
[08:57] Merku
    Remember, the state will
    take care of your children,
[08:59] Merku
    ensuring they turn into the
    same kind of soldiers
[09:01] Merku
    who got you here in the first place!
[09:03] Merku
    You don't have to worry
    about parenting at all!
[09:05] Merku
    Relax and give birth without a care!
[09:08] Umeyo
    Looks like the girl over there just finished.
[09:11] Umeyo
    Make sure to patch up the tears.
[09:14] Umeyo
    Otherwise it could be a
    problem with the next batch.
[09:16] Merku
    Okay!
[09:19] Merku
    Oh, what's up, Miku?
[09:21] Miku
    Oh, I just needed to talk to Umeyo!
[09:24] Miku
    It's kind of a hard subject
    to broach, but...
[09:27] Umeyo
    You preggers?
[09:29] Miku
    No, ma'am.
[09:32] Hayato
    You long-haired—
[09:43] Prontea
    He's already able to push me back?
[09:46] Prontea
    How is he this much stronger after one night?
[09:49] Prontea
    One second, Hayato-kun!
[09:51] Prontea
    What exactly did Ysley-kun say to you?
    How are you hitting so much harder already?
[09:57] Hayato
    Something about consciously trying
    to get lighter, the way Paula does.
[10:01] Hayato
    Upping my weight when I land a blow
     is supposed to make a difference, too.
[10:05] Prontea
    Oh, I see...
[10:06] Prontea
    Lowering your weight for speed
[10:08] Prontea
    and then increasing it for power
    is fundamental stuff!
[10:12] Prontea
    And you never realized it for yourself?
[10:17] Prontea
    Ysley-kun! Already done
    negotiating with the humans?
[10:21] Ysley
    Yup. No problems on our end.
[10:23] Ysley
    Thanks to the lack of delays,
    we won't need the whole week.
[10:26] Prontea
    That's perfect. I don't think we'll
    be needing it, either.
[10:31] Prontea
    Hayato-kun, practice is over for now.
    Next is live combat.
[10:37] Prontea
    We're going to invade the Zoble Empire today.
[10:49] Navy
    Four new targets have appeared!
[10:53] Prontea
    M-M-Master... I-It's been so long...
[10:57] Rin
    Prontea! It really has been a while.
[11:00] Obami
    Th-That's... another Idaten
    we've never seen before!
[11:04] Obami
    Is he the one who defeated
    Piscalat and the others?
[11:06] Takeshita
    If he's too strong for us to handle,
[11:10] Takeshita
    we'll have to flee, won't we?
[11:11] Ysley
    Um, Prontea-san, you're looking a bit shaky...
[11:16] Ysley
    Were you able to shut down the audio
    and video transmissions from the ships?
[11:19] Prontea
    Uh... Sorry. N-No can do.
[11:22] Ysley
    Then I suppose it's only a matter of
    time before this "Miku" figures out
[11:26] Ysley
    that we're preparing to invade.
[11:28] Obami
    Hey, Miku! A new Idaten has appeared!
[11:31] Obami
    I want you to analyze him ASAP!
[11:34] Obami
    Hmm? Miku?
[11:37] Obami
    What? The reports?
[11:40] Obami
    Those can wait! I want you
    to start looking into this new one—
[11:47] Decoy
    His Majesty is here, too?!
[11:49] Obami
    Wh-Who are you supposed to be?
[11:52] Decoy
    M-Mistress Miku told me
[11:54] Decoy
    to sit there and be quiet.
[11:57] Decoy
    And if I'm found out, to hand over this letter.
[12:00] Miku
    Dear Demon Lord...
[12:01] Miku
    Looks like you caught me!
[12:03] Miku
    Sorry, but after assessing
    the current situation,
[12:06] Miku
    I've decided we're totally screwed!
[12:08] Miku
    That being the case, I'm going to flee
    the country! Hope you understand!
[12:12] Miku
    I'm also taking Umeyo with me
[12:14] Miku
    in the event that we get a chance
    to rebuild the demon race later on!
[12:17] ---
    A word of warning:
[12:20] ---
    If the three Idaten on our radar
    rendezvous with the powerful one,
[12:24] ---
    or if you confirm the
    presence of a new Idaten,
[12:28] ---
    I'm fairly sure what comes next will be...
[12:29] Miku
    an immediate invasion.

[12:35] Troops
    Th-They're so fast!
[12:37] Umeyo
    What's with these tunnels?
[12:39] Miku
    I'd say Kroft was the one who dug them.
[12:42] Miku
    Raki most likely put him up to it.
[12:44] Miku
    Brandy takes her responsibilities
    pretty seriously,
[12:46] Miku
    so I doubt she'd run in the face of danger,
[12:48] Miku
    but I bet she told her
    children to make a break for it.
[12:50] Miku
    I'm curious, Umeyo.
[12:52] Miku
    How many children are in the process
    of fusing inside you right now?
[12:56] Umeyo
    Two of them. Both boys.
[12:58] Miku
    That means once they're old enough,
    Merku and I can start popping out babies!
[13:04] Merku
    Wait... Me, too?!
[13:06] Merku
    You want me to have kids with someone
     who's just a baby right now?
[13:09] Merku
    How perverted are you?!
[13:11] Miku
    Don't worry so much!
[13:13] Miku
    I'll make sure they know all the ins and outs
     by the time they're ready for action!
[13:17] Merku
    That's not what I'm objecting to!
[13:19] Miku
    I personally like the idea
    of taking some naive boy
[13:22] Miku
    and getting him addicted to my body.
[13:25] Miku
    Are shotas not your thing?
[13:27] Merku
    I mean, I like them, but...
[13:32] Umeyo
    I never would've guessed
    that was your style!
[13:38] Miku
    Chat time is over! It's time to beat it!
[13:41] Miku
    The letter I left has been opened!
[13:43] Miku
    Something must've happened with the Idaten,
[13:45] Miku
    which means it won't be
    long before they attack!
[13:51] Obami
    Brandy! Miku's flown the coop!
[13:54] Takeshita
    Why would she go on her own?
    We could've all fled as a group.
[13:59] Obami
    It's obvious enough.
[14:00] Obami
    She meant to make herself scarce
    while the rest of us are being killed.
[14:04] Brandy
    I'm sure she judged that to be
    her best hope of escape.
[14:09] PA
    Emergency notice! Emergency notice!
[14:12] PA
    All roads leading in and out
    of Zoble are being destroyed!
[14:23] Merku
    M... M-M-Miku!
[14:25] Merku
    The path behind us just got demolished!
[14:27] Miku
    Looks like they're eliminating
    all methods of egress.
[14:31] Miku
    By cutting away at the land,
    they can turn Zoble into a giant island
[14:31] Sign
    Zoble
[14:34] Miku
    and then take their time wiping
    out all of the demons inside.
[14:38] Miku
    That means, at present, any demon
    on the other side of the divide...
[14:42] Miku
    has nowhere to run.
[14:44] Prontea
    Not having to work
    with Master is pretty relaxing...
[14:47] Brandy
    Your Lordship, I also told my
    own children to flee beforehand.
[14:52] Brandy
    If the Idaten realize that the
    majority of demons are here,
[14:56] Brandy
    they'll focus their attention on us.
[14:57] Brandy
    That will allow my children
    and Miku's group to escape.
[15:00] Brandy
    Come along, darling.
[15:03] Brandy
    You were bored of playing emperor
    for so long anyway, weren't you?
[15:07] Brandy
    Let's raise some hell,
    like we did when we were young.
[15:12] Takeshita
    Fair enough. Let's do it.
[15:17] Hayato
    There it is, Granny. That's the Zoble Empire.
[15:21] Rin
    I see. And that's where the demons are?
[15:29] Obami
    But how will they attack? How will they
    tell us apart from the humans?
[15:40] Hayato
    Damn it, Granny, there's only like
    300 demons in the whole country.
[15:45] Rin
    Is that right?
[15:47] Obami
    They're insane...
    Not a thought in their heads...
[15:50] Obami
    They're attacking with no concern
    for human lives, not to mention efficacy.
[15:55] Obami
    It's idiotic. One of them is a big old dummy.
[15:58] Piscalat
    But that works out perfectly...
[16:00] Piscalat
    Do you hear me, citizens of Zoble?
[16:03] Piscalat
    Do you hear me, all soldiers?
    This is General Piscalat of the Imperial Army.
[16:08] Piscalat
    I realize this is sudden, but the time
    has come for a military coup d'état.
[16:11] Brandy
    P-Piscalat?!
[16:12] Piscalat
    Any civilians and people who
    feel like surviving will need
[16:16] Piscalat
    to follow my orders and evacuate.
[16:18] Piscalat
    Your only chance of survival is to head
    for the northern coast immediately.
[16:21] Piscalat
    There will be no flights out.
    Air travel will make you a priority target.
[16:25] Troops
    Damn it, General Piscalat!
    What are you doing?!
[16:29] Troops
    Time to hunt a traitor!
[16:31] Troops
    I'm gonna get a crack at General Piscalat—
[16:35] Piscalat
    Now, to those of you
    who failed to flee, prepare to die.
[16:38] Piscalat
    Over and out.
[16:39] Brandy
    They're taking advantage of Piscalat's voice!
[16:42] Prisoners
    What's going on?!
[16:43] Gill
    Please, God, save us!
[16:46] Hayato
    Come on, you old bag! Quit making a mess!
[16:49] Hayato
    How are we supposed to keep track like this?
[16:52] Rin
    This is such a nuisance!
[16:53] Hayato
    Prontea says he can tell
    the demons from the humans.
[16:57] Hayato
    Leave the judgment calls to him.
[17:00] Hayato
    We're only going after the ones
    who're obviously not human.
SIGN    Demon Teen Salamanda
[17:09] Salamanda
    There you are, Idaten!
[17:10] Salamanda
    I'm the best demon there is
    when it comes to digging!
[17:12] Salamanda
    And now Salamanda is gonna dig your....
[17:15] Salamanda
    grave?!
[17:18] Hayato
    We just gotta kill 300 of those, right?
[17:22] Rin
    I see. This may be easier than I thought.
[17:25] Ysley
    Now, how will this shake out?
[17:29] Cory
    Why am I here with you guys?
[17:31] Ysley
    Because if any additional demons show up,
     we won't be able to handle them.
[17:35] Paula
    We don't amount to much in a fight, huh?
[17:43] Speedy
    This is absolute madness!
[17:45] Speedy
    And I swear, as the fastest demon alive,
     I'm gonna get as far away—
[17:53] Prontea
    That makes ten, I think.
[17:57] Prontea
    The evacuation seems
    to be going smoothly, but...
[18:01] Prontea
    I still don't see any priority targets.
[18:04] (Flashback) Piscalat
    If you want to protect the humans
    so that they can rebuild later,
[18:04] Sign
    Operation Planning
[18:08] (Flashback) Piscalat
    you'll want Prime Minister Biarov.
    He's human, but talented.
[18:11] (Flashback) Piscalat
    I'm sure he'll be useful.
[18:13] (Flashback) Piscalat
    It'd be ideal to make allies
    of Miku and Barcode, as well.
[18:18] (Flashback) Piscalat
    What they look like?
[18:20] (Flashback) Piscalat
    Well, they operate behind the scenes,
     so there are no pictures...
[18:23] (Flashback) Piscalat
    Wait, you want us to draw them?
[18:28] (Flashback) Neput
    I think Cory's is probably the closest.
[18:32] (Flashback) Piscalat
    It'll have to do, then...
SIGN    Miku
SIGN    Barcode
SIGN    Umeyo
[18:36] Prontea
    Is this gonna work?
[18:39] Beefy guys
    You're not going any farther!
[18:40] Beefy guys
    We're gonna show you the
    power of the Super Beefy Bros.!
[18:46] Rin
    Oh? Hayato's grown a lot stronger.
[18:51] Hayato
    This is gonna take all damn day.
[18:53] Hayato
    Let's split up, Granny.
[18:56] Rin
    He's still not quite as
    reliable as Prontea, but...
[19:02] Rin
    I'm pretty sure I pierced that one's heart.
[19:06] Rin
    Did I miss?
[19:14] Rin
    What's with them?
    They're suddenly moving much sharper.
[19:17] Rin
    In that case...
[19:22] Rin
    Can't move with their heads gone.
[19:28] Rin
    They're still not dead,
    even after losing their heads?!
[19:33] Rin
    Wh-What is this?
[19:35] Brandy
    She's so solid!
[19:37] Brandy
    I won't be able to keep her away
    with ultra-thin hair alone....
[19:40] Brandy
    Still, I must remain calm.
[19:41] Brandy
    She's not the kind of enemy
     I can beat head-on.
[19:46] Brandy
    The important thing is that she
    assumes she's fighting weaklings.
[19:49] Brandy
    I need her to believe that.
[19:54] Troops
    The hell is that?
[19:55] Troops
    One of General Piscalat's men?
[19:57] Troops
    Keep firing! Shoot him down!
[20:06] Hayato
    You're a demon, aren't you?
[20:10] Hayato
    Hey, get your ass back here!
[20:12] Prisoners
    I can't take it anymore!
[20:13] Prisoners
    Let us out of here!
[20:14] Gill
    Everyone, you mustn't lose hope!
[20:17] Gill
    I'm sure God will show us mercy!
[20:26] Prisoners
    Hey, over there!
[20:28] Hayato
    Man, he managed to get pretty far...
[20:31] Hayato
    Huh, why didn't those humans run?
[20:35] Gill
    Wh-Who are you?
[20:37] Gill
    No, it doesn't matter right now.
    Please, help us!
[20:42] Gill
    Open these cells!
[20:43] Prisoners
    Please! Help!
[20:44] Hayato
    Cells? Huh, so this is how
    you keep humans in place...
[20:53] Hayato
    Well, you're free, but you might
    be safer staying in here for now.
[20:59] Hayato
    Though it all depends on how
    wild the crazy old bitch gets...
[21:02] Gill
    J-Just who are you...?
[21:04] Takeshita
    He's a god.
[21:07] Takeshita
    Albeit not the kind of all-powerful
    creator deity that you worship.
[21:13] Gill
    E-Emperor Takeshita?!
[21:16] Takeshita
    You all have won this war.
[21:18] Takeshita
    But for the sake of the future...
    I need to at least manage to kill you.
