[00:04] Soldier
    Why?
[00:04] Munechika
    Almost all the soldiers outside the
    walls have surrendered to the princess.
[00:09] Munechika
    Inside the walls, everything is calm.
[00:11] Anju
    What about those injured in the battle?
[00:13] Munechika
    We're treating the injured,
    among both our allies and our enemies.
[00:17] Munechika
    Kuon offered us additional
    medicine. Don't worry.
[00:22] Anju
    I see.
[00:27] Soldiers
    No! It can't be...
[00:40] Anju
    Oshtor?

[02:48] Raiko
    So you're finally here?
[02:51] Raiko
    It's been a long time since we've
    seen each other like this, Oshtor.
[02:58] Anju
    Why?
[03:00] Anju
    Why did you betray us?
[03:03] Anju
    You cared for Yamato more than anyone!
[03:07] Anju
    So why did you create a false puppet?
[03:10] Anju
    Was I that unworthy?
[03:14] Anju
    I don't understand! I don't understand at all!
[03:18] Raiko
    You've grown a little, I see.
[03:21] Raiko
    Making Yamato mine was only
    a step toward a larger goal.
[03:26] Raiko
    What I wanted was what came after.
[03:29] Raiko
    Yes. The liberation of the people of Yamato!
    For them to become truly independent!
[03:34] Anju
    Liberation?
[03:36] Anju
    What are you talking about?
[03:37] Anju
    Are you saying that my father oppressed
    the people? Made them suffer?
[03:41] Raiko
    Quite the opposite, in fact.
[03:44] Raiko
    No one loved the people of
    Yamato as much as the Mikado.
[03:53] Anju
    Where are you going?
[03:54] Raiko
    Please, follow me.
[04:00] Raiko
    The Mikado loved the people of Yamato,
[04:03] Raiko
    but he was also concerned
    for the nation's future.
[04:07] Raiko
    Did you never notice that there was
    something wrong with this nation?
[04:12] Atuy
    I don't really understand...
[04:14] Nosuri
    Yeah, I think it's a good place to live.
[04:18] Fumirul
    I think what he's trying to say is...
[04:21] Kuon
    If anything, how easy it
    is to live here, I think.
[04:24] Kuon
    The people of this country are too blessed.
[04:27] Kiwru
    What? Are you saying it's wrong
    for the people to be happy?
[04:31] Raiko
    No. The happiness given to the people
    of Yamato isn't something they earned.
[04:37] Raiko
    It was given to them by heaven.
[04:39] Kuon
    So they're birds in a cage?
[04:42] Raiko
    And most of them believe that this
    is normal, and think nothing of it.
[04:49] Raiko
    The Mikado gave us many blessings.
[04:53] Raiko
    Things we could think about for
    centuries and never imagine.
[04:57] Raiko
    We have been blessed in countless ways
    by power and wisdom beyond imagination.
[05:01] Raiko
    Yes, the Mikado loved us.
[05:06] Raiko
    He treated us with love and care,
     like helpless babies in a cradle.
[05:12] Raiko
    But that makes us no different from pets.
[05:16] Raiko
    What are we to do if our master gets
    bored with us, and abandons us?
[05:19] Raiko
    Or what if, as we just saw, he dies?
[05:23] Raiko
    What do we do then?
[05:26] Raiko
    I have nothing but gratitude for the
    Mikado and all he's done for us.
[05:30] Raiko
    But now that he's gone, we must
    take flight by our own strength.
[05:39] Kuon
    Even if that's not what the
    people of this country want?
[05:43] Raiko
    Many countries have risen
    and then disappeared,
[05:46] Raiko
    continuing a cycle of prosperity and decline.
[05:49] Raiko
    That's how a country should be.
[05:51] Anju
    Impossible! Yamato will never fall!
[05:55] Anju
    It's a paradise that will last forever!
[05:59] Raiko
    Every sun will someday set.
    That is the way of the world.
[06:03] Raiko
    The sun that is the Mikado set,
    and then the nation split in two.
[06:09] Haku
    But now the sun is ready to rise again
     and bring light to the people.
[06:15] Haku
    The sun that is Princess Anju!
[06:18] Anju
    Oshtor...
[06:19] Haku
    A baby in its cradle will someday grow
    up and walk on its own two feet.
[06:25] Haku
    Princess Anju has learned,
    and grown, all by herself.
[06:29] Haku
    When the time comes, she will
    be there to cheer them on.
[06:36] Raiko
    Perhaps I've said too much.
[06:38] Raiko
    Now, end this with your own hands, Oshtor!
[06:44] Shichirya
    No, not yet!
[06:55] Shichirya
    We still have something we can do!
[07:00] Haku
    An Akuruka?
[07:01] Nekone
    But there are only supposed
    to be four of them!
[07:05] Raiko
    The secret treasure of the Mikado...
[07:07] Raiko
    A reflection of the true Akuruka,
     the first one he made.
[07:12] Raiko
    The one that served as the
    base for the other four...
[07:15] Shichirya
    Please, use this and conquer.
[07:20] Raiko
    I cannot do that.
[07:22] Raiko
    To turn to the Mikado's power at this
    point would make me worse than a fool.
[07:28] Raiko
    It's over, Shichirya.
[07:32] Raiko
    I tried to make my way to heaven in
    order to escape the Mikado's cradle.
[07:38] Raiko
    So even in death, I shall stare at the heavens
     and become the bearer of their sins.
[07:45] Raiko
    Enough. Leave me, Shichirya.
[07:48] Shichirya
    No, I won't!
[07:52] Shichirya
    Then I will open the path!
[07:56] Shichirya
    General Raiko, please...
    make your dream become real.
[08:05] Raiko
    You have shown yourself to be truly loyal.
[08:09] Raiko
    But I am the one who started this war.
[08:12] Raiko
    I alone will bear the cost for it.
[08:16] Shichirya
    General Raiko...
[08:18] Raiko
    Ideals without power are nothing but dreams.
[08:22] Raiko
    Oshtor, if you would compare
    the princess to a sun,
[08:26] Raiko
    and say she will bring light to the people,
[08:29] Raiko
    then prove to me that her light is real!
[08:47] Anju
    What is this incredible power?
[09:08] Raiko
    The power comes to me
    from deep within my body!
[09:13] Raiko
    This sense of excitement,
    verging on madness...
[09:16] Raiko
    It makes everything feel so small!
[09:19] Raiko
    Even my own life!
[09:23] Haku
    I've got no choice...
[09:24] Kuon
    Oshtor!
[09:26] Kuon
    You're not thinking of
    fighting on your own, are you?
[09:33] Nekone
    We won't let you use the Akuruka anymore!
[09:37] Haku
    Guys...
[09:40] Anju
    Believe in the friends who've
    fought with you so far!
[09:44] Kuon
    Everyone's thinking the same thing.
[09:47] Kuon
    And...
[09:51] Haku
    Yeah.
[09:54] Raiko
    Now, it's time for one of us to die.
[09:57] Raiko
    I shall judge for myself...
[10:01] Raiko
    if you are truly worthy to
    lead the nation of Yamato!
[10:09] Shinonon
    Big Sis Rulu! I brought bandages!
[10:12] Rulutieh
    Thank you, Shinonon.
[10:17] Shinonon
    Big Sis Rulu, you okay?
[10:23] Rulutieh
    Sorry. Yeah, I'm fine.
[10:27] Rulutieh
    I have to do my best.
[10:29] Rulutieh
    And do what I can do right now...
[11:00] Mikazuchi
    Brother...
[11:03] Mikazuchi
    Wait... I'm coming to finish this!
[11:32] Shichirya
    General Raiko!
[11:34] Kuon
    I won't let you!
[11:39] Shichirya
    Y-You...
[11:44] Raiko
    Shichirya, enough. Go.
[11:47] Shichirya
    I can still fight!
[11:49] Shichirya
    Please, stay with me until the end!
[11:51] Raiko
    You're in my way.
[11:57] Shichirya
    As you wish.
[12:02] Raiko
    It's time to end this.
[12:05] Raiko
    I will now unleash all my power
    and destroy everything.
[12:11] Raiko
    Heirs to the history of Yamato,
[12:14] Raiko
    show me your resolve!
[12:17] Raiko
    Or you will never banish the
    sloth that dwells within Yamato!
[12:29] Haku
    He sure likes to talk...
[12:32] Kuon
    I'll have to do this myself!
[12:35] Fumirul
    No, Ku!
[12:37] Kuon
    But...
[12:38] Fumirul
    Using too much power in a short span will
    put that much more stress on your body!
[12:42] Fumirul
    You understand that, right?
[12:45] Haku
    Fear not!
[12:47] Haku
    We're going to show him the
    strength of the people of Yamato!
[12:51] Haku
    Even without the protection of the
    Mikado or the power of the Akuruka,
[12:55] Haku
    we can survive on our own!
[12:58] Haku
    This battle will be the
    first step toward that!
[13:01] Haku
    Right?
[13:05] Haku
    Here we go!
[13:06] All
    Right!
SIGN    This is our last fight, ain't it?
[13:15] Atuy
    I'm so excited!
[13:19] Nosuri
    I won't let you!
[13:20] Kiwru
    We'll use all our strength in this battle!
SIGN    Now, then...
[13:28] Ougi
    There's no end of excitement
    around here, huh?
[13:39] Munechika
    Now, Your Majesty!
[13:41] Anju
    On it!
[13:44] Anju
    Raiko!
[13:59] Twins
    Master!
[14:00] Twins
    Now!
[14:14] Shichirya
    General Raiko!
[14:39] Nosuri
    He's still alive?
[14:50] Raiko
    So this is it...
[14:57] Haku
    You were already at your limit, weren't you?
[14:59] Raiko
    I've followed my own path,
[15:04] Raiko
    and done so of my own free will.
[15:07] Raiko
    If there's such a thing as the next world,
     we will meet there once again.
[15:13] Haku
    Yes. I'll go there too, someday.
[15:17] Raiko
    I'm looking forward to it.
[15:22] Shichirya
    General Raiko!
[15:32] Shichirya
    Raiko...
[15:34] Anju
    The war is over.
[15:36] Anju
    My foes are all dead.
[15:39] Munechika
    Your Majesty...
[15:40] Haku
    Yes, it's all over now.
[15:44] Haku
    It's time for me to fulfill my last duty.
[15:49] Haku
    Your Majesty, the people are waiting.
[15:52] Anju
    Indeed.
[15:56] Haku
    Uruuru, Saraana, can you bring the voice
    of the princess to the people of Yamato?
[16:01] Twins
    It's possible.
[16:02] Twins
    No problem at all.
[16:10] Anju
    People of Yamato, do you hear my voice?
[16:13] Anju
    Do you understand my words?
[16:17] Anju
    I am the child of heaven! The new Mikado,
     and the rightful ruler, Anju!
[16:23] Anju
    Raiko the traitor,
[16:25] Anju
    who deceived you with a false princess
    bearing my name, has fallen!
[16:28] Anju
    Of course, I'm sure some
    of you are still afraid.
[16:33] Anju
    And it is my fault that you felt such fear.
[16:36] Anju
    And thus, I will prove that I am the
    true Mikado with deeds, not words,
[16:43] Anju
    by leading you upon the right path!
[16:46] Anju
    May light shine down on Yamato from heaven!
[16:56] Haku
    Oshtor...
[16:58] Haku
    I kept our promise.
[17:01] Haku
    The hopes that lived within
    you have come true today.
[17:09] Haku
    This is all I can do.
[17:14] Haku
    It won't come off, will it?
[17:17] Haku
    Well, if I can't take it off, so be it.
[17:22] Haku
    I'll just disappear and
    take the Akuruka with me.
[19:07] Shichirya
    How heartbreaking.
[19:10] Raiko
    I won't last much longer.
[19:14] Raiko
    Correct?
[19:15] Shichirya
    Even after so much damage...
[19:17] Raiko
    I thank you...
[19:19] Raiko
    for all your service to me.
[19:23] Raiko
    I needed to end things on my own.
[19:27] Raiko
    And you gave me the chance.
[19:29] Shichirya
    I...
[19:31] Shichirya
    I was always...
[19:36] Shichirya
    You knew?
[19:39] Raiko
    I was sure when you took out the Akuruka.
[19:44] Raiko
    No mere yatanawarabe could
    possess such a thing.
[19:51] Shichirya
    But please believe me...
    It wasn't supposed to be like this!
[19:57] Shichirya
    I should've taken your place!
[20:01] Raiko
    Don't cry, Shichirya.
[20:17] Raiko
    Shichirya...
[20:19] Raiko
    Shichirya, you...
[21:11] Shichirya
    General Raiko...
[21:13] Shichirya
    I-I just... I wanted to see what you saw...
[21:38] Woshis
    It's over. You've done well.
[21:44] Shichirya
    General Woshis...
[21:46] Woshis
    You did a wonderful job.
[21:49] Woshis
    We were lucky to get rid of him so easily.
[21:55] Woshis
    Now, give me the Akuruka.
[22:00] Woshis
    What's wrong?
[22:09] Woshis
    Excellent work.
[22:11] Woshis
    I would've preferred that
    he take Oshtor with him...
[22:15] Woshis
    But I suppose that was asking for too much.
[22:19] Woshis
    A Proxy's body couldn't
    bear the stress, I suppose.
[22:24] Woshis
    That's all we're going to get
    out of an untuned Akuruka.
[22:28] Woshis
    So this will have to do.
[22:33] Woshis
    This will aid my research greatly.
[22:36] Woshis
    He didn't die for nothing.
[22:40] Woshis
    Be proud, Shichirya.
[22:43] Shichirya
    As you wish, General Woshis.
[22:47] Woshis
    Now, he's all that's left.
[22:51] Woshis
    It's time to move on to the next step, then.
[22:59] Woshis
    How do you suppose he felt when you,
    the one he believed in, betrayed him?
[23:07] Woshis
    Well, there's no point in asking you,
     the traitor, instead of him.
[23:29] Shichirya
    Farewell.
