[00:07] (Flashback) Friend
    Ren!
[00:09] (Flashback) Friend
    Can I go to your house to play Brave Star?
[00:12] (Flashback) Ren
    Again?
[00:14] (Flashback) Friend
    Everybody else wants to come, too!
[00:16] (Flashback) Friend
    Show them how good you are at it!
[00:19] (Flashback) Ren
    I'm busy today.
[00:20] (Flashback) Friend
    What? But it's much more fun with friends!
[00:24] (Flashback) Students
    You're friends with that guy?
[00:25] (Flashback) Students
    That's the first time I've
    actually heard him speak.
[00:47] (Flashback) Ren
    Did you get all the ones over there, too?
[00:49] (Flashback) Party Member A
    Yeah, the two of us just barely
    managed to take them out.
[00:52] (Flashback) Party Member B
    Ren-sama, you're amazing!
[00:54] (Flashback) Party Member B
    You took down this huge dragon by yourself!
[00:57] (Flashback) Ren
    Its weak spot is its stomach.
[00:59] (Flashback) Ren
    If you focus your attacks on
    its stomach, it will die.
[01:02] (Flashback) Party Member A
    Ren-sama knows everything!
[01:04] Party Member B
    That's why he's a hero!
[01:04] Ren
    I knew this world well.
[01:08] Ren
    It was exactly the same as the game 
    I used to play, Brave Star Online*.
[01:16] (Flashback) Ren
    Okay, let's go!
[01:18] (Flashback) Party Member B
    It's huge!
[01:19] (Flashback) Party Member A
    Can we beat something that size?
[01:21] (Flashback) Ren
    We can.
[01:22] (Flashback) Ren
    We're more than strong enough.
[01:26] Ren
    "I can speedrun this world, too."
[01:30] Ren
    That's what I thought.
[01:34] Ren
    Until that moment...

[03:18] Ren
    Why couldn't I win?
[03:22] Ren
    I fought it just like the sites*
    say you're supposed to.
[03:25] Ren
    And it's supposed to be
    beatable at level 60.
[03:28] Ren
    We were all above level 80!
[03:37] Ren
    This is impossible.
[03:39] Ren
    Level 80 should've been
    more than high enough.
[03:42] Ren
    But these guys were weak!
    That's why we lost!
[03:46] Ren
    It's not my fault! It's not
    my fault! It's not my fault!
[03:51] (Flashback) Ren
    It's not my fault at all!
[03:53] (Flashback) Naofumi
    Ren, I'm sorry about what
    happened to your party.
[03:57] (Flashback) Naofumi
    But you can still fight.
[03:59] (Flashback) Naofumi
    There's no time left before
    the Phoenix's seal breaks.
[04:02] (Flashback) Naofumi
    This time, we heroes need
    to face it together.
[04:06] (Flashback) Naofumi
    Please, help me.
[04:08] (Flashback) Ren
    All right.
[04:10] (Flashback) Myne
    You mustn't believe the Shield Demon!
[04:13] Ren
    At first, I didn't believe her either.
[04:17] Ren
    But she was crying.
[04:20] Ren
    And...
[04:22] Ren
    Her slave crest...
[04:27] (Flashback) Myne
    I care about you more than anyone!
[04:31] (Flashback) Myne
    The entire world may call you a criminal,
[04:35] (Flashback) Myne
    but I believe you!
[04:37] (Flashback) Myne
    I believe you fought for
    the sake of the world!
[04:42] Ren
    That's right. I didn't do anything wrong!
[04:49] Naofumi
    If that's how you're gonna be, then I've
    got some shit to say to you, too.
[04:55] Naofumi
    This world's not a game.
[04:57] Naofumi
    You had people who believed in you,
    and followed you wherever you went!
[04:59] Ren
    Shut up!
[05:01] Ren
    From now on, everything's
    going to be just fine!
[05:04] Ren
    I was just unlucky until now!
[05:06] Ren
    It's not my fault!
[05:09] Ren
    And she's a true comrade! She's worthy to
    be with me, even if the others weren't!
[05:30] Ren
    My equipment...
[05:40] Myne
    You're useless to me now.
[05:43] Myne
    So I'm taking what useful things you have.
[05:47] Ren
    Useless? Useless?
[05:50] Ren
    Useless...?
[06:20] Man B
    Looks like we found ourselves a Sword Hero!
[06:22] Man A
    Just like that woman said.
[06:36] Man B
    You're way too slow!
[06:41] Ren
    What's going on?
[06:42] Ren
    Why are they attacking me?
[06:52] Kid
    Mommy! A bad guy's in the house!
[06:54] Ren
    N-No, I'm not a bad guy!
[06:59] Woman
    The Sword Hero?
[07:05] Ren
    That's right. I'm sorry.
[07:07] Ren
    Some men are chasing me.
[07:08] Ren
    It's dangerous to go outside.
[07:10] Ren
    Stay inside so you'll be safe—
[07:11] Woman
    Leave.
[07:16] Woman
    You didn't protect us from
    the Spirit Tortoise.
[07:19] Woman
    Why did you even bother coming here?
[07:23] Woman
    If you stay here, you'll bring
    disaster to the village again!
[07:40] Man B
    There he is!
[08:07] Ren
    I'm... I'm a hero!
[08:10] Bandits
    Well, if it isn't the
    chosen one, the Sword Hero!
[08:15] Bandits
    What are you doing here?
[08:18] Bandits
    Where's the rest of your party?
[08:19] Bandits
    Oh, wait! They're all dead!
[08:24] Bandits
    And what happened to your clothes?
[08:26] Bandits
    They're covered in mud!
[08:27] Bandits
    Maybe he's not the Sword Hero.
     He's the Mud Hero!
[08:29] Ren
    How did this happen to me?
[08:31] Bandits (Background)
    Hey, Mud Hero, why don't you say something?
[08:32] Ren
    Even these losers are making fun of me.
[08:34] Ren
    A woman lied to me and took
    everything I owned.
[08:38] Ren
    I could get by fine on
    my own if I wanted to!
[08:42] Ren
    I know all about this world!
[08:46] Ren
    I was chosen to be a hero!
[08:49] Ren
    This wasn't how it was supposed to go!
[09:07] Ren
    I'll kill you.
[09:16] Bandits
    Please don't hurt us!
[09:19] Bandits
    B-Boss!
[09:21] Bandits
    Don't let him scare you! Kill him!
[10:09] Ren
    You...
[10:10] Motoyasu
    Here I go!
[10:15] Motoyasu
    Yahoo!
[10:17] Naofumi
    Ren!
[10:20] Motoyasu
    Father!
[10:24] Naofumi
    Motoyasu, what are you doing?
[10:26] Motoyasu
    I'm defeating these bandits before
    they can attack your village!
[10:32] Motoyasu
    I lured out their leader, only to find
    that he was none other than Ren!
[10:42] Naofumi
    Ren, are you...
[10:45] Ren
    Maneater Meteor Slash!
[10:53] Naofumi
    I recognize this feeling...
[11:02] Naofumi
    The Curse series?!
[11:07] Ren
    You think I'm a failure too, don't you?
[11:10] Ren
    I'm going to get stronger than everybody.
[11:14] Ren
    That's right. My ambitions have no bounds.
[11:17] Ren
    I'm going to awaken to
    even greater power here
[11:20] Ren
    and defeat you!
[11:27] Ren
    I'll awaken to all my abilities,
[11:29] Ren
    defeat every enemy,
[11:31] Ren
    get every item,
[11:33] Ren
    master every one of my powers,
[11:35] Ren
    and become the strongest in every world!
[11:38] Naofumi
    He's reduced himself to being a bandit.
[11:40] Naofumi
    His greed's driving him to
    seek not just treasure,
[11:43] Naofumi
    but victory and power, too.
[11:46] Naofumi
    This curse is... greed!
[11:51] Naofumi
    But why does he feel so weak and pathetic?
[11:55] Ren
    Why are you looking at me like that?
[11:57] Naofumi
    Whatever the reason,
    the Curse series has skills
[11:59] Naofumi
    that make you pay a price
    each time you use them.
[12:02] Naofumi
    I need to stop him, now!
[12:05] Ren
    You can't defeat me!
[12:07] Naofumi
    I don't give a shit about
    what you have to say!
[12:08] Naofumi
    Where's Witch, your comrade?
[12:19] Motoyasu
    Father, it appears that was
    the wrong thing to say!
[12:23] Naofumi
    Ren, I'm not your enemy!
[12:25] Ren
    Shut up!
[12:26] Motoyasu
    Don't forget about me, Father!
[12:29] Motoyasu
    Shall I just kill him for you?
[12:31] Naofumi
    You leave this to me!
[12:33] Naofumi
    Ren, calm down!
[12:34] Naofumi
    Being the boss of a bunch of
    bandits isn't going to...
[12:36] Ren
    Let this foolish sinner pay for his
    transgressions with execution by beheading!
[12:44] Ren
    Let him despair as his head is separated
    from his body before he even has time to scream.
[12:50] Ren
    Guillotine.
[13:02] Naofumi
    I've had enough of this shit!
[13:09] Raphtalia
    Naofumi-sama!
[13:12] Naofumi
    Stay away from him, everyone.
[13:15] Naofumi
    I'm fine.
[13:18] Ren
    Teams... Guilds...
[13:20] Ren
    None of you are worth anything
    unless you're with your buddies!
[13:24] Ren
    Let this foolish sinner
[13:26] Ren
    pay for his transgressions by being
    crushed in the name of a god!
[13:31] Ren
    Take my riches and unleash a
    divine strike upon my foe!
[13:37] Ren
    Gold Rebellion!
[13:52] Naofumi
    Raphtalia!
[13:54] Ren
    Damn it! I'm not done yet!
    I can still get stronger!
[13:57] Ren
    I'm stronger alone than any of you cowards
    who are trying to gang up on me!
[14:03] Ren
    My strongest is much greater than this!
[14:10] Naofumi
    S'yne, bind Ren so the curse doesn't
    swallow up any more of him.
[14:15] Naofumi
    We'll all pin him down and
    take him to the village.
[14:18] Eclair
    Wait, Iwatani-dono.
[14:21] Eclair
    Would you let me have a duel
    with the Sword Hero alone?
[14:25] Naofumi
    Are you serious?
[14:26] Eclair
    Yes.
[14:28] Eclair
    I want to snap him back to his senses.
[14:34] Naofumi
    Eclair is far better with a sword than Ren.
[14:38] Naofumi
    She can win this, I'm sure.
[14:40] Naofumi
    I'll cast support magic on you to make
    up for the buffs he gets as hero.
[14:44] Naofumi
    If things start to look bad, I'll intervene.
[14:47] Naofumi
    Is that all right?
[14:49] Eclair
    Yes.
[14:50] Eclair
    Thank you.
[14:51] Naofumi
    Zweit Aura!
[14:56] Eclair
    Sword Hero, Amaki-dono!
[15:00] Eclair
    My name is Eclair Seyaette.
[15:03] Eclair
    If you wish to fight Iwatani-dono
    or Kitamura-dono,
[15:06] Eclair
    you must first defeat me!
[15:08] Ren
    It doesn't matter who you are.
     You can't beat me!
[15:19] Keel
    Sure, she's strong, but he's a hero!
[15:23] Keel
    Can she really win?
[15:24] Atla
    It'll be fine.
[15:26] Atla
    Leave it to Eclair-san.
[15:32] Raphtalia
    I think I understand how she feels, maybe.
[15:37] Raphtalia
    I think I can see the pain
    in that man's sword.
[15:41] Eclair
    Sword Hero, what is it you want?
[15:45] Eclair
    Why do you want to get stronger?
[15:48] Ren
    I won't accept anything less
    than being the strongest!
[15:52] Ren
    I'll be the strongest in all worlds!
    All times! All dimensions!
[15:57] Ren
    That's what I—
[15:57] Eclair
    And then what?
[16:03] Eclair
    Once you're the strongest,
    what do you want then?
[16:09] Ren
    I'm going to be the strongest...
[16:12] Ren
    A-And save...
[16:17] Ren
    Save the world!
[16:19] Ren
    That's right! I'm the chosen hero!
[16:22] Ren
    The Sword Hero that saves the world!
[16:25] Ren
    Now die!
[16:29] Eclair
    That was a task someone
    else thrust upon you!
[16:32] Eclair
    I'm asking what you yourself want!
[16:40] Eclair
    Decide where you're aiming,
[16:42] Eclair
    and commit to an attack once you've made it.
[16:49] Eclair
    You're not deciding on anything right now.
[16:53] Eclair
    There's no way you can defeat me
    with your heart in that state!
[16:57] Ren
    Shut up! Shut up!
[17:09] Ren
    I'm the strongest...
[17:28] Ren
    To gain that strength...
[17:31] Ren
    Gain everything...
[17:42] Ren
    Devour... it...
[17:45] Naofumi
    Devour it?
[17:47] Naofumi
    My curse is wrath.
[17:48] Naofumi
    So Ren's are greed... and gluttony?
[17:52] Naofumi
    It's like the seven deadly sins!
[17:56] Eclair
    You're suffering, aren't you?
[18:05] Eclair
    I'll put an end to that now.
[18:13] Eclair
    Hengen Muso Swordcraft:
    Multistrike Crumble Attack!
[18:42] Man B
    Found you!
[18:43] Ren
    I've seen them before...
[18:45] Naofumi
    How are you alive?
[18:47] Man B
    And the Shield Hero's here, too!
[18:49] Man B
    You're gonna regret killing us before!
[18:51] Naofumi
    Why now, of all times?
[18:54] Naofumi
    They'll crush us all like this!
[18:56] Man A
    Die, Cardinal Heroes!
[19:05] Motoyasu
    Burst Lance!
[19:11] Man B
    Y-You're kidding me!
[19:15] Naofumi
    Motoyasu...
[19:17] Motoyasu
    You're next.
[19:20] Naofumi
    He's fast!
[19:37] Naofumi
    I see.
[19:38] Naofumi
    So those are their souls.
[19:41] Naofumi
    Raphtalia!
[19:42] Raphtalia
    Right!
[19:43] Raphtalia
    Spirit Blade: Soul Slice!
[19:45] S'yne
    I can't believe you can defeat them.
[19:50] Naofumi
    Still...
[19:54] Motoyasu
    All of your enemies must die, Father!
[19:57] Naofumi
    Motoyasu, where is your
    strength coming from?
[20:00] Motoyasu
    Your word is law, Father!
[20:04] Naofumi
    So you tried the way of making
    yourself stronger I told you about?
[20:10] Ren
    He's strong...
[20:23] Eclair
    Why don't we get stronger together?
[20:28] Eclair
    I realized why you were suffering.
[20:31] Eclair
    You didn't want to waste
    away in a place like this.
[20:35] Eclair
    But you didn't know what to do.
[20:39] Eclair
    Even if you did change and get stronger,
[20:43] Eclair
    the things you've lost wouldn't come back.
[20:45] Eclair
    And that's why you should
    live and keep fighting,
[20:49] Eclair
    to make up for the things you lost.
[20:54] Eclair
    Right now, you're weak.
[20:58] Eclair
    But I'm sure there must be
[21:02] Eclair
    some sliver of strength within you.
[21:10] Eclair
    Let's make that sliver into
    something much bigger together!
[21:15] Ren
    I always thought I'd be better off on my own.
[21:27] Eclair
    You'll find the reason you want
    to get stronger eventually.
[21:32] Eclair
    I was just thinking I'd
    like a training partner.
[21:39] Filo
    Are you okay, Master?
[21:41] Motoyasu
    Filo-tan!
[21:47] Atla
    That was an incredible scream.
[21:49] Fohl
    The Spear Hero's a weird guy, isn't he?
