The Irregular at Magic High School (Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei) (2014) s01e17 Episode Script

Nine Schools Competition Part X

1 First High's victory is practically in the bag now.
If First High goes on to win, our losses will exceed 100 million dollars.
That's in U.
S.
dollars! Don't be absurd! Are you just going to give up? That would be the same as just sitting here waiting to die! A loss this huge, they won't let us die that easily.
If we're lucky, they'll turn us into half-dead Generators.
Now that it's come to this, we can't afford to be picky about our methods! Damn right! Even if we have to be more brutal, there's no reason to hesitate anymore! Even if our customers' suspicions are aroused, as long as we leave no evidence, we can give them any damn excuse! You're right.
Let's send our collaborators some agents.
For Mirage Bat, we'll have all First High members withdraw.
By force.
If their luck holds out, they won't die.
Otherwise It'll just mean that they weren't lucky.
The weather is ideal for Mirage Bat.
I suppose.
First High School Though to me, it looks like the calm before the storm.
Do you think something else could happen? I can't get a handle on their objective.
While I have no proof that something will happen neither do I have proof that nothing will.
There's no need for you to worry, Miyuki.
No matter what happens, I'll be sure to protect you, if no one else.
8-11 Main Event Mirage Bat First Match First up is Ms.
Kobayakawa's match.
She does seem extremely fired up.
Depending on our results in Mirage Bat, our overall victory could be sealed today.
Who could blame her? Mizuki, are you okay without your glasses? To be honest, it's a little uncomfortable.
But I know that I can't run away from it forever.
Hey, you're not really No, but I think it's wrong to avert my gaze from what's visible to me when I should be seeing it.
Like when Ms.
Watanabe got hurt.
If only I'd been watching, I think I could've helped out Tatsuya.
Even so, you won't keep your eyes peeled all day, will you? If Tatsuya's right, and they're using Spirit Magic to thwart their opponents, Ms.
Shibata's eyes will definitely be our most dependable aid.
We do have a barrier around us to alleviate the stimulation from Pushion light, so I don't think there'll be any lingering effects.
So you're going to protect Mizuki, Miki? Okay, then, if something happens to Mizuki, you be sure to take responsibility! Needless to say, the kind of responsibility boys take for girls! Now This is not the time to be saying things like that! But your concern seems a little extraordinary, shall we say? Hey Your desire to shield her is just oozing You really are a mean one A brush with danger after magic fails you.
The ensuing sense of distrust towards magic often leads to an inability to wield magic at all.
Ms.
Kobayakawa might be finished Mizuki? Tatsuya! What's up? Well um Did you see something? Yes.
Right by Ms.
Kobayakawa's CAD, I saw a light No! It looked like spirits bursting apart.
You did? I see Um Good job, Mizuki! You just gave me some extremely useful information.
Thank you very much! Brother What on earth? That "incident" just now I might be able to pinpoint the cause.
Then just as we suspected somebody Miyuki.
You'd better go get ready for your match.
But I told you this morning, didn't I? There's no need for you to worry.
Brother I'm just going over to get your CAD checked before the match.
I'll be right back.
Events Office Next in line? You really underestimated me, didn't you? Did you really think I wouldn't notice if you tampered with something of Miyuki's? What did you inject into this CAD with that examination device? I'm sure it's not just a virus.
Still, all of the accidents that occurred during this tournament couldn't have been your doing, could they? I see So you don't want to say? What's going on here? Patriarch Kudou? Please forgive me for this unseemly display.
You're Shiba of First High, right? You played a magnificent match yesterday.
So What happened here? Yes, sir.
The CADs used by my school have been tampered with, so I apprehended the culprit, and was about to interrogate him about who was behind this.
Is that right? True, a foreign element has been injected into this.
Back when I was still active, the magicians of the Guangdong Army used this during the battle of the East China Seas, it's Golden Electron Silkworms.
Golden Electron Silkworms is a delayed Activation Sequence that invades electronic devices, causing them to malfunction.
Until we were able to identify this, our forces suffered severely Did you know about this? No, I've never heard of the term "Golden Electron Silkworms" till now.
That said, I recognized at once that something similar to a virus had been injected into the system I'd designed myself.
I see.
So tell me, where on earth did you acquire this magic sequence? Now then, Mr.
Shiba.
You should be getting back to the stadium.
I'd use a backup CAD if I were you.
Under these circumstances There's no need to have it checked pre-match.
To think that someone among the tournament staff was involved in tampering it's a scandal without precedent.
You can explain yourself to me later.
Mr.
Tatsuya Shiba? I'd like to hear from you as well sometime.
Yes, sir.
Should the opportunity arise.
All right, then I suppose I'll be looking forward to that opportunity, then.
Brother! Sorry about that.
For making you worry No, no.
Still It's just that whenever you get angry for real, it's always for my sake I guess you're right.
It's only for your sake that I can get angry for real.
But listen, Miyuki It's only natural for an older brother to get mad for his younger sister.
And that's the one "natural thing" left in my heart.
So Miyuki You don't have to be sad.
Not only that, but your makeup is gorgeous today.
It would be a shame for it to get ruined by tears.
Remember, today is your day to shine Are you kidding, my dear Brother? My, my, Tatsuya! When I was informed by the tournament committee that one of our students had gone on a rampage, I didn't know what to make of it but it was just a big brother with a hard-core sister complex who went berserk over someone hitting on his precious, precious, little sister.
8-11 Main Event Mirage Bat Second Match Only this slim a lead after the second period? Against Miyuki? The Nine Schools Competition is no joke, I guess.
Brother? Is it all right if I use that? Go ahead.
You can do anything you want All right! Is that Don't tell me it's Flying Magic! Flying Magic? Taurus Silver's? No way! But that sequence was only just made public last month! Yeah, but that No question It's Flying Magic! She's flying Nine Schools Competition Part X I just heard from No.
17.
Our target in the second match made it to the final.
I think we're past the point of being selective about our methods, but who knows? What are you going to do? Have them call off the tournament itself.
Using a Generator to indiscriminately kill a hundred or so of the audience should suffice.
Will No.
17 be enough manpower for the job? He wasn't able to bring his weapons in, but if we remove his limiter, he can kill a hundred or two with his bare hands.
Won't the audience start making a racket? Those weapons brokers are going to be a pain in the ass, never mind our colleagues.
Those guys are tight with various governments We can figure out an excuse for our clients! Right now, our main concern should be the organization's sanctions! No objections, then? All right, I'm removing the limiter.
All the way from those stairs I'll give you props for making it in time.
Who are you? No, no need to answer.
Because you probably can't answer, anyway.
That athleticism of yours surely it's not just magic Are you an enhanced human? You're the one who said "no need to answer," Yanagi.
Besides, being that you landed from the same height on your feet, he probably doesn't want to hear that from you, right? I wasn't expecting an answer to that.
I was thinking out loud.
Still, I have to say it's always a sight to see.
Did you use Revolution just now? I've told you repeatedly, it's not Revolution, it's Flip.
Enough with the small talk, help me bring this guy down! All right, let's do that.
Although you should know that Fujibayashi, thanks to Thunder Needle, seems to have him in custody already.
You two really are chummy, aren't you now? Fujibayashi, I thought you had good eyesight.
I think it's her sensitivity, not her eyesight that's questionable? Want me to refer you to a good counselor? See, you two are totally in sync! Come in.
Excuse me, Brother.
Miyuki, so you're out of the shower? Yes.
Miyuki, is there something you want me to do for you? Something I want you to do for me did you say? Go ahead, say it.
You did just instruct me to rest a bit before the final Right.
If possible, you should get some sleep.
Even if you can't sleep, just lying down will be fine.
No telling me that you don't want to get into bed, okay? Oh, no, of course I'll do whatever you say, Brother But Um If you don't mind I was wondering if you could stay by my side You really are a baby, Miyuki.
Is that wrong? I want you to dote on me, Brother.
All right.
I can't sing you a lullaby, though.
Brother Even though the attempt failed, who knew they would go so far as to use a Generator to plot a massacre? Apparently, they no longer care how it looks Who knows what they'll try next? 8-11 Main Event Mirage Bat Finals How are you feeling? I'm in perfect condition, Brother.
My drive and energy have been replenished, so I'd like to use Flying Magic from the start.
Fine.
Go on and fly as much as you want.
All right! Flying Magic? The other schools, too? After the second round, it seems that the other schools raised some concerns about cheating.
I was asked by the tournament committee to submit Miyuki's CAD for testing, but in response to the complaint, the committee must have leaked the Magic Sequence to the other schools.
That's unbelievable That's not a spell that anyone can master without any practice.
It shouldn't be a problem.
If they're using Silver's sequence as is, even if something goes wrong, the safety device should kick in.
What's that? Looks like the safety device is functioning as it should.
