Original subtitles

In A.D. 200X,

World War 3 began.

All of Earth's cities, including Tokyo, became the targets of bombings,

and were bathed in frightful red flames.

Half a century has passed since then.

The contaminated former epicenter is still isolated from the city,

creating a hole in the middle of Japan...

It is commonly known as the Black Spot.

As time passed, people began to inhabit this wasteland.

They were deemed unnecessary by those who lived in cities.

Among these unnecessary people were ones who could command strange abilities.

Fire, Wind, Gravity...

They had the ability to control these supernatural powers.

Thus, those who possessed Fragments...

Were regarded with fear as...

The Needless!

Get ready, fly out, keep an open mind.

We're going to rust together to the end.

A composed movie star, and a gorgeous rock star

We'll blow them both away.

We're modern strange cowboys.

Are you ready for the action?

There's nothing blocking our path.

Do you have any function?

Go way back to the fire!

Insanity can't be expressed in words!

You can't ignore my will!

Don't sugar-coat your words.

Let me feel your feverish body!

Live for the moment, cowboy!

So that the newly sprouted flowers won't be scattered by the wind!

Live on, cowboy!

Keep on running, cowboy!

Roukakuji Riru

Sorry to interrupt your meal.

That idiot.

He's here already!

Wow, he's already here.

Arclight-sama, that's him! He's the priest who defeated the Testaments and Kafka!

I can see that.

I've been looking for you.

You're the one who's body I'll obtain.

I didn't expect the main dish to appear so quickly.

That priest is in trouble!

He's gonna be killed!

Your body is mine.

Shut up, you piece of shit. I'll stick your teeth up your ass and make your hands chatter!

And how exactly are my teeth going to get there?

Wow, that's first time I've heard Arclight-sama tell a joke.

That was a joke?

What the hell is he doing!?

I can't believe this! This is the worst possible turn of events!

What are we going to do!?

No, this is fine. This might even be the only solution.

What are you saying? He just jumped head-on into a pack of Needless!

No, look again. The Simeon executives haven't made a move, even though their leader was attacked.

Isn't that just because they think Father has no chance of harming Arclight?

But is that all?

Have you forgotten already? The girls who infiltrated Iron Mountain wanted Blade's body.

Therefore, they can't do anything that puts his body at risk.

I see.

So, we could say that the only person in the world who can fight Arclight one-on-one is Blade.

Tempest Thread!

Tempest Thread

Only God can cut that string!

Wow! Archlight-sama!

Don't you remember? I am God!

I'll prove you wrong!

Vulcan Shock Ignition!

Vulcan Shock Ignition

Memorized.

W-What!?

Vulcan Shock Ignition.

It's huge!

That's my Fragment!

Disc-san!

I'm on it.

There's no doubt about it. Arclight can memorize abilities, just like Blade!

Son of a ...

He has the Zero ability.

Maiden Restriction!

Maiden Restriction

Too slow.

Deen Drive Fox Hound.

My ability lost to Setsuna's

Did you see that? He used my move!

There, there.

I just Memorized... that move!

This might just be me, but I think Arclight's moves are more powerful.

Really?

It's not just you. Arclight is using more powerful moves than Blade, no doubt about it.

Tempest Thread!

He has the same ability as I do, Zero... But why are his attacks more powerful?

Power Fragment, activate.

Planet Crusher!

Planet Crusher

What! He flew all the way over there!?

That building had just been finished

Whoa, Oniichan died?

Nah, he's fine. Arclight-sama hasn't gotten serious yet.

Memorized!

He's coming!

Power! Planet Crusher!

They have more than one Fragment!

That demon is going to swallow us up!

If we get caught in the middle of this...

Primaria.

Yes, ma'am!

Showtime!

Those are...!

Testaments?

Looks like it.

They're huge.

I've never seen them this big before.

None of you are allowed to leave until this event is over.

Damn, they cut off our escape route.

That's a big fan.

None of my data indicated that they had been working on Testaments this large.

What are you planning to do with us!?

It's your decision to become Arclight-sama's servant or enemy.

However, if you insist on trying to get through here, my dear Pochi will eliminate you immediately.

That's a shitty name.

This is terrible. Blade is up against Arclight alone, and our escape route is blocked off.

Now all of us are hostages, not just Eve. They've turned the situation around.

Don't be scared! It's just a woman and some machines!

They're...

Y-yeah. We have a better chance of beating her than that demon over there.

Yeah.

Let's go!

You guys don't think too highly of me, do you?

Fragment, activate! Take this!

That Fragment of yours is far too incomplete.

Don't act so cocky when your abilities barely exceed those of a human!

She picked up the whole building!

What an incredible ability!

Can a human do that?

I'd heard rumors, but I didn't think it really existed.

What?

That's the world's strongest Fragment, Psychokinesis.

It's never been seen before. She's probably the first person since the Second to possess it.

She is a Needles who's a member of Simeon's Elite Four, who used to rule Shin-ou, another Black Spot.

Roukakuji Riru.

Psychokinesis

Please help!

Oh God...

Your time has come.

Kandata String!

Useless.

Eternal Distortion.

Eternal Distortion

It's time to end this.

I'm going to give you a chance.

What!?

Look.

The lives of all of these people are in my hands.

Give up your life and I'll save all of them.

Aren't some of your friends down there? Don't you care what happens to them?

You bastard!

He can't...

Motherfucker!

Little Boy!

He punched him!

What was that!? You like games, huh, you piece of shit!?

I see.

Bargaining with you isn't an option. Very well.

Hey! Are you trying to run away?

Girl Squad, you can handle the rest.

Roger!

Get back here!

Don't get the wrong idea.

Little Boy!

I only played with you to see if you were fit for my new body.

If you want to kill me, follow me. I'll be waiting.

Are you an idiot!? Do you think I'm going to fall for your trap!?

Oniichan!

He followed him!

The entrance closed!

That idiot went inside!

So, priest, I'll lead you to your resting place.

Long time no brief.

Yo, Stockings!

What sort of greeting is that?

Hey, captive princess.

Who the hell are you?

I'm Saten. This is...

A hand coming from your stomach, huh? Well done, Doppelganger user.

Unfortunately, you're not even close to beating me!

In any case, I need you to fulfill an important role for us.

I'll never work for you!

Look, just listen to me, OK?

I though so. He's holding back. Why?

All right, do it, Kurumi!

Okay.

Be stained black with attraction.

Black Attraction

Black Attraction

Black Attraction

What are we gonna do?

Eve-san is being held hostage. Even Father has no chance alone!

But that woman and her Testaments will be on us if we make any rash moves.

There has to be something we can do...

There is.

But it's very dangerous.

What is it? Spit it out.

We have to tame Pochi.

Pochi... as in the Testaments?

Pochi

Pochi

Pochi

Ah, you're going to hack into the Testaments' programming!

Over here!

Where are they taking me?

Here?

This... is...

What's up with this fancy room?

Blade

It's huge!

Welcome to our playing field!

Mio-tan!

Shelter #3.

Acrophobia

A shelter?

The walls of this room were made to withstand any attack.

Needless can duke it out to their liking in here.

Arclight...

Hey! It's a huge peeping device!

It's a monitor.

Girl Squad, the lab is nearby. I can allow only a little damage.

Wait! Arclight!

Eve!

You can have her back if you beat us.

In other words, escape is not an option.

All right.

Get in line, you little shits! I'll take you all out!

Please be gentle.

We'll go for that Pochi. It's far from that woman and it's in a blind spot.

Yeah.

Uchida, be a decoy and buy us some time.

My name is Teruyama, not Uchida!

Let's go!

Yeah!

Hacking cord, go!

All right, I've got it in near the brain.

Dive.

Disc-chan's three minute hacking, start!

Hurry up!

Great, the program framework is the same as the other Testaments'.

Teruyama-san, do your best!

What's the matter, out of batteries already?

Damn! It noticed!

Disc-san, watch out!

Professor, can't you help Disc-san?

Impossible. Disc uses her brain to hack them directly. She's way out of our league.

No way!

Teruyama-san!

Just do something! Hurry up! I can't hold this forever!

I'm on it.

Are you done yet?

Please, just a little longer.

SHIT!

Teruyama-san!

Leave it to a girl's style!

Admit it, we're strong, aren't we?

A cheating boy's attack!

Do it again, give me a proper kiss!

What do you want to do each day?

It's a good tempo.

Keep it up! That's the spirit!

Take your beating!

Say bye-bye to any selfish feelings!

Sill OK?

We're aiming for the next guy, Mr.scaredy cat.

Why not stop here? One strike and you're out.

Even though you're usually so cool,

you look so confused by these teasing words.

If you start to bore me, you'll be punished!

You've accidentally stepped into an aggressive zone!

And all sorts of troubles started happening!

We'll make a miracle happen in this jumping free zone!

Don't you agree? Not that we care though!

Leave it to a girl's style!

Admit it, we're strong, aren't we?

A cheating boy's attack!

Do it again, and give me a proper kiss!

Preview

To tell you the truth, I promised my girl back home that we'd get married when this fight was over.

This guy just tripped his own death flag...
