Ragnarok The Animation (2003) s01e01 Episode Script

Gosh
We've come so far, but still nothing but forest
I wish I were already in Geffen selling my wares.
Oh? I was hoping I could do more hunting.
That's fine with me,
but I've heard this area's become more treacherous lately.
We'll be fine!
Don't worry. I'll protect you, no matter what appears.
With this!
That's so good to know.
We're counting on you.
After I've made my money in Geffen,
I'll treat you to some apple cider.
Huh?
Where'd everyone Huh?
What's going on?
Where'd you all go?
This isn't funny!
Huh?!
We are the stars
We dash across the skies
You are my star
A priceless love
El Dorado, rising up above the dust clouds
We are journey to the stars
The dream I saw before I awoke
Will surely come true, so never forget it
Searching for a sliver in time passing by
Where I belong, those days are over now
Silhouettes outlining the shapes of clouds
Farther and farther
I want to keep looking for the promised land I saw in my dreams
We are the stars
Like a shining arrow
You are my star
Unfailing strength
The panorama that spreads before us, beyond the darkness
We are journey to the stars
Yuufa, we'd better be going.
Yuufa
I'll be going now, my brother
Thanks for waiting, Roan.
Okay, let's go!
Hurry!
The capital of Rune-Midgard is really something
So many people.
It's been so long since
I've been back.
Say, Yuufa
Wanna go and see the flowers by the west gate?
Or maybe buy some fruits at the market?
Yuufa, I know you're depressed after your brother's death, but
Oh, these are so cute!
I have lots of good things.
Have a look.
W-What do you want to do?
Want to go to Izrut?
Morok, maybe?
Or maybe take the boat from Alberta?
Stop talking so much, Roan.
I'm trying to decide between the hairband and the gas mask.
Uh, but
Carry this, and this and this for me, Roan.
You're buying all these?!
UmYuufa, what about the money?
This one's cute, too!
Make way! Make way!
I wonder why they're in such a hurry?
Seems the Orc attacked a group of travelers.
That's all we hear about nowadays.
Seems its true about the monsters becoming more violent.
Do you think it's related to the recent rash of quakes?
What is this world coming to?
It appears there are strange rumors about town
Yes. Rumors of the monsters becoming more violent
and many like it are all over town.
Last month, four travelers and a Pekopeko were attacked
I received that report.
Yes, sir.
But the four were all veteran adventurers.
It's hard to believe they were done in by a monster from Prontera.
Hmm You may be right
We have to consider them more than just rumors.
The monsters and many other strange things have been going on recently.
Yes, sir!
It's our duty to dispel the fears of Prontera's citizens.
I will ride with you today.
It's a bit early, but let's do a patrol.
Accompany me.
Yes, sir!
That's odd
The market's supposed to be this way
Are you sure it's this way?
We've hardly passed anybody for some time now.
Umm
No, it's definitely this way!
Just a minute!
Whaddya want, lady?
You talking to us? Eh?
Oh I get it
You're in love with us, aren't you?
Wanna party?
You've got to be kidding,
if you think I'd go around with the filthy likes of you.
What?!
Filthy?!
What'd you call us?!
Silence!
I want you two to
return what I collected.
What?!
What're you talking about?
Yes
I've been following you all this time.
You ran off with the item I collected during my hunt in the Myorni Mountains.
You came all this way to complain about that?
You're a lot more petty than you look, lady.
That's not the point!
I'm saying to follow the rules of being an Adventurer!
If you don't follow the rules, you're the worst sort of Adventurer.
You're making a scene.
What's all the commotion?
Who the hell is she?
Boss, she's
This bitch is accusing us of something we don't know anything about.
Surely you know what I mean.
I'm just asking you to go by the rules.
We operate by our own rules.
What we do is our business.
You're
The one who ran away
after setting a monster on some people, three days ago.
Huh?!
What?!
How do you know about that?!
Blindfolded, no less!
I can tell by your air.
You have a peculiar smell.
Smell?
You all stink.
Stink?!
I would never forget that cheap perfume.
Why you-
I've had it with you!
Guys!
Yeah!
We'll teach you to make fools of us!
Oh dear
Why won't you admit your own guilt?
Damn you!
She's still making fun of us!
This is wrong!
It's three against one!
Y-Yuufa
Huh?
Who're you?
Young lady, it isn't safe here.
Stand back.
No, I can't let this go on.
If it's not one thing today, it's another
Okay. But even with you, it's still three versus two.
No, there's one more!
Roan! Hurry and come on out, Roan!
Roan!
Aww!
Roan!
Ohhh!
Heck!
I'll take you on!
N-No it's nothing.
She's right we were just asking directions.
We'll be going now!
I sure showed you!
I'm Roan, the swordsman!
Roan
Huh?
Are you people okay?
Captain of the Prontera Cavalry
Sir Helman!
It would seem
this area has become a hotbed for undesirables.
We come out on patrol every so often
Looks like we arrived just in time.
You truly saved us.
Thanks to you, we avoided an unnecessary fight.
Thank you very much.
Yes do be careful.
I'm so glad
Let's get going.
Yeah. Uh okay.
Just a minute.
Yes?
I am Takius, a magician.
Please allow me to thank you for today.
Huh? Are you sure about that?
But
You both came to my assistance.
Please allow me to show my gratitude.
What blasted luck!
What were cavaliers doing in a place like this?
That's how dangerous it's gotten lately.
What is wrong with you two?!
Boss
Why'd you slink away from the cavalry like that?
You can't expect us to-
Aren't you men? Pitiful!
But Boss
No excuses!
First that girl makes fools of you and then you run into the cavalry!
Good grief! What a terrible day!
Why am I having such
a lousy meal in a place like this?!
Right now, I'm supposed to be eating a warm meal at a tavern somewhere!
We ran into the cavalry at a bad time
R-Right
We have to lay low for a while.
Shut up! I know that!
Then don't be so unreasonable.
Don't give me that!
This all happened because you're both good-for-nothings!
But it's okay this bread is delicious.
Idiot! That's not what I'm talking about!
I can't just leave things like this!
What're you going to do?
Around this hour
They're probably having lunch, too.
I see So?
If we check the taverns and inns, we'll be sure to find them.
Who's going to go and find them?
You are, of course!
What?! Search the entire town?!
And what'll we do if we do find them?
Never mind. Get going and find them.
Uh, okay.
I'll teach them what happens when they cross me!
This is a nice place
Prontera has the best.
Yes. I come here often when I'm in Prontera.
I never knew of such a place.
It's been a long time since
I've been in Prontera.
I see. You haven't been to Prontera in awhile?
But back then, there weren't people like that
Don't worry, I'll protect you, Yuufa.
It was Sir Helman who rescued us back there
That's That's not so!
Are you two a couple?
Huh?! No, uh
No, we're just childhood friends.
Huh?!
Do you have a boyfriend, Takius-san?
Oh forgive me.
Yuufa-san
What do you think of what's been happening lately in the world?
Huh? Happening in the world?
Monsters are becoming more violent,
and the world is being devastated by earthquakes and tsunamis.
As a result, it's not just the world, but people's souls that are decaying.
Like the people we met earlier.
Eh
They are unstable.
They aren't innately bad people.
A disturbing trend has them under its control.
I-I wonder about that.
They looked pretty bad to me.
No. The disturbing trend is to blame.
Something must be done.
Don't you think so?
I see
But you're talking to two mere adventurers
I was wondering why do you wear a blindfold, Takius-san?
Yuufa
This is
I am in training.
It helps to improve my concentration.
That is why I wear this.
Do blinders help with that?
I dunno.
I
I am on a quest for the ultimate truth to save the people of this world.
There they are, Boss.
Shall we get them?
No
I'll use this.
A branch from a dead tree
Are you planning to summon a monster?
You don't have to use that-
The two of us will give it to them good.
No, that woman
Isn't someone you two can handle.
She dodged my knife
She's no ordinary woman.
But
If a terrible one should appear
Aren't you men?!
Don't go getting scared!
Argh!
What was that?
Huh? What's going on?
Something's happening outside.
What the-
The clock tower manager
Clock tower manager?!
What's the clock tower manager doing here?!
How should I know?!
Why you-
No! Take refuge this way!
The Prontera Cavalry will be here shortly!
Captain!
Excuse me, sir
What's all the commotion?
Th-the clock tower
Huh?
Boss, look what we've done!
What'll we do?!
It's their fault for making us angry!
We've got to get out of here now!
Yuufa-san, do you have any skills?
Huh?
I uh I can use White Magic.
All right
Then let's take care of this ourselves.
Eh?!
Yuufa-san, you watch my back.
I will recite an incantation.
Roan-san, you buy me the time I'll need.
B But I think now is the time to run!
We can try again when we're more ready
Roan
I do not believe people who won't fight today
but say they'll fight another day.
B But
Aren't you going to protect Yuufa-san?
I like that look in your eyes
Let's do it.
Come at me!
Careful, Roan!
Leave him to me, Yuufa!
Why you!
This thing's fast!
Roan!
Hurry up, Takius-san!
Cold Bolt!
Hey, watch it!
Once more!
Frost
Diver!
Incredible!
Now the final blow!
Meet your end, you spring-loaded freak!
Look at me, Yuufa, don't I look great?
No, you mustn't!
Huh?
Roan!
Heal him!
Oh, right.
Heal!
Don't move!
Takius-san!
Cold-
Takius-san!
She's lovely
Are you all right, Takius-san?
Use your magic!
My blindfold! My blindfold!
Huh?
I'm powerless
Powerless without my blindfold!
What?!
Holy Light!
Yuufa!
Run, Yuufa!
Stay away from Yuufa!
Roan!
Roan Roan!
Holy Light! Holy Light!
Why won't it fall
Brother?
Roan! Roan!
Damn
Have I failed
to protect Yuufa?
I was entrusted with her
Have I failed, after all?
Cold Bolt!
Takius-san!
What are you doing?!
Get up, Roan!
Why do you wield that sword?
I wield this sword
to protect Yuufa!
Is that-
Takius-san!
Just a little more
The Prontera Cavalry has arrived!
Sir Helman!
Now, Takius-san!
Lightning
Bolt!
We did it
We did it!
We've defeated it!
Takius-san!
I still have much to learn
Are any of you hurt?
No, we managed somehow.
The three of you defeated the clock tower manager alone?
Yes but it was mostly thanks to Takius-san.
Well, I must be going
Huh?
Takius-san?
What is your rush?
Why not stay?
I'd like to show the cavalry's appreciation for what you've done.
No thank you.
I am on a mission to pursue the ultimate truth.
Goodbye.
I'm sure we will meet again somewhere.
If that is our destiny
Takius, the magician
Unable to even find a way to regain the strength we lost
Here we are, beneath this vast sky
The shining cradle of green
Is a merry-go-round that will never stop turning
Greater than any jewel in this world
It is a precious treasure
The endless journey leads to our tomorrow
A problem in the sewers prompts Roan and his friends go to investigate,
but what awaits them.
Next time: "Be Good to Me, Big Brother."
Join us again.
