Sword Gai: The Animation (2018) s01e09 Episode Script

Episode 9

1 SWORD GAI Long ago, in a village near the Mediterranean Sea, lived a young man named Kanata.
He was the offspring of a human father and a fairy mother, and was born with knowledge and strength beyond that of a human.
When Kanata turned 18, his mother gave him the Halbert, an ancient weapon of the fairy world, and said, "When used for justice, it will give its bearer great power.
" "But if used for evil, it will bring its bearer great disaster.
" Kanata went to the battlefield, and held true to his mother's words, using the Halbert only for justice.
To protect the village, he singlehandedly defeated 100 enemies, and became a hero.
But when he returned to the village, he found that his lover, Sara, married a young doctor while he was away.
Betrayed by his lover, he went mad with jealousy.
He chased after the two and killed them with the Halbert.
The Halbert turned crimson, and began to attack one innocent after another.
Kanata killed the villagers as if controlled by the Halbert.
And ultimately, he even killed his parents.
In the end he died of exhaustion, but until he died the Halbert continued its slaughter.
And you're going to bring me this legendary weapon.
Your target is the real estate company, Sekiya Group.
We recently received information that the CEO, Shuntaro Sekiya, purchased the weapon from its wealthy foreign owner.
Agent Mina Hiraya has already infiltrated the organization as his secretary.
Mr.
Sekiya is ill, so he wanted a secretary with nurse training.
That's how she was able to get hired.
Mina.
Excuse me, is Mr.
Sekiya in? Do you have an appointment? Tell him I'm from I Miss You Inc.
, and he'll know what I'm here for.
One moment, please.
I Miss You? I thought you were just a hallucination of mine.
You haven't changed despite all the decades.
I was left behind and got old all alone, but What, you're not hungry? I thought we were heading to the Shoshidai.
It's been a while since I've been outside.
I want to enjoy it a little.
Once you go to sleep, who knows how long it'll be before you wake up.
If you have plans, you should do them now.
I don't have anything like that.
Don't say that.
Look over there.
This scenery could be completely different the next time you come here.
We constantly undergo cold sleep, so we don't get to enjoy life like others.
All we're allowed is to remember what we see now.
Why remember? Because it's the only way for us to exist in this world, and not just as a hallucination.
Gai, what have you seen in your life? I missed you! We'll get that Guinness record another time, okay? There's a floor reserved for executives in the basement.
The Halbert is being kept there in a safe.
The duct leading there connects to a men's room in the basement.
Inside you'll find the elevator key, a map and the password to the safe.
Roger.
Good work.
Be careful.
Security's tight.
Please authorize key.
Miki, you were dating Hiraya, huh? Yeah.
Keep it quiet.
We're not allowed to have at-work relationships.
Yeah.
That's incredible, though, that she infiltrated the place by herself.
Don't you dare fall in love.
Don't worry.
She's not my type.
That alone pisses me off.
So, this area's off limits to the public? Actually, I have an idea.
You're sure they can't see us? My Azoth Sword still contains the devil sealed by Paracelsus.
I'm using its power to surround us with darkness.
Wow.
Nice job, Marcus.
Hurry.
R-Right.
Huh? Did you say something? I hate filthy places like this.
Whenever a friend came over I'd always clean after they left.
So how'd someone like me end up here? Don't say that.
Look, we're here.
Let's get out of here.
I can't take it any more.
It stinks, it's filthy, it's disgusting! Hey, get off me! That's kind of creepy! Don't say that! H-Hurry! Okay, let's say hello to our legendary weapon.
What's wrong? We opened the safe to find another.
Looks like we need a second password.
But I Any ideas, Mina? Authorization error.
Unregistered person recognized.
Beginning gas emission.
S-Sorry! Naoki, what's wrong? We may be in a pinch.
Can you look for anything promising? Hurry! Hold on, hold on! Something that looks like a password No luck.
We can't use our power like this either.
We just have to wait for Mina to find the password.
What are you doing? B-Boss! Mina, we might be in trouble.
Um, I wanted to confirm if our medicines were stocked.
So? Did you confirm that they were? Yes.
We're out of antihypertensive drugs, so I'll restock them.
What are you-- You can't fool me.
I know you're after what's in the basement safe.
So I'll save you the trouble of looking.
I'm sorry, Mina.
Betrayal is unforgivable.
No way Naoki, the Halbert isn't in the safe! He knew about our plan! What? What's going on? Mina! T-T-Traitor.
Mina! Naoki! Let's go, Marcus! Naoki! No! D-Death to t-t-traitors.
You're the one dying.
Marcus! Nice.
We need to call for rescue! I am the Halbert.
My host dies, but I live on.
Now I live inside you.
-Naoki! -Miki! -Naoki! -Miki! Naoki! N-No, Naoki! Miki! Naoki! Did I scare you? Sorry, sorry.
I'm fine.
Are you really okay? Yeah.
We'll contact the Shoshidai immediately.
We need them to analyze you.
Wait.
I'm outside, and you're here.
I'm fine, really.
My wound's healed, and we recovered the Halbert, sort of.
Please.
If I go back, who knows when we'll see each other again.
If you're really okay Yes! Um, okay, you two enjoy yourselves.
Look at him, being considerate like an adult.
Hey, are you really okay? In addition to the Fallgon, you're possessed by the Halbert.
Two weapons at once is too much strain! You're still worried! Who do you think I am? I'm Miki, the young leader candidate with a bright future! One or two extra weapons is no problem at all.
Kill, kill, kill, kill.
Kill, kill, kill! Naoki, what's wrong? No, it's nothing.
That was fun! You've got too much energy, Naoki.
I'm exhausted.
Sorry, sorry.
Did I get a little too excited? No, I had fun too.
I never get to be with you outside the facility.
Let's have that Guinness record kiss.
Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! N-Naoki? Run, Mina! Good lord! -Send Marcus Lithos immediately! -Yes! What I have seen this thing has seen too.
Like it was watching over me.
Let's go.
Break's over.
Naoki, where are you? Do you recognize me, Naoki? Stop.
Stop it, Miki! Miki, snap out of it! You're my friend, right? Come here.
Only I can satisfy the beast burning inside you! This is a rare case, though.
It seems he hasn't completely become a Busoma, but This is kind of bad.
Are you Chrysalis too? Yes.
It aches.
Ichijo! Come on! Watch out! Stop it, Naoki! Naoki, you remember, right? It's me.
And you're Naoki.
The Naoki I love! Naoki.
Don't kill him! Naoki! Hang in there, Naoki! He's He reverted back to a human because he hadn't fully become a Busoma, as well as a coincidence of the fatal wound's location.
I'm afraid that Even if he's put into cold sleep? That won't fix it.
It's impossible to remain a Chrysalis while holding two Alma.
He may become a Busoma at any moment.
The best thing we can do is hurry and recover the weapon.
The exam results came back! You're fine! You'll be okay if put into cold sleep! I'm glad.
I'm glad.
I did something awful to you.
I tried to hurt you.
That's-- I don't have the right to love you.
That's not But I can't let you go.
So I'm sorry.
You're silly.
Don't apologize.
Hey, will you hear my dream? Even though I'm a Chrysalis No, maybe because I'm a Chrysalis, I find myself wanting an average life.
Two kids, a boy and a girl.
I'll buy a house not too big or small.
Maybe even a dog, too.
Sometimes I'll come home drunk and my cute wife will get mad.
So Mina Will you marry me? Subtitle translation by Adam Lensenmayer
