Original subtitles

I am Gado.

By collecting 99 keys,

Gungnir plans to take over the world.

The one fighting against Gungnir and all that they stand for,

is none other than The Guide's son, Teruasa Oda.

With all of his friends' lives depending on it,

the final battle continues.

The foolish humans

struggle and suffer,

shedding tears of blood.

Teruasa, accept your fate.

Teruasa Oda, Guide,

you both have one word left.

The blue word is something that fits into a cube with sides one meter long.

It's a person,

and Teruasa Oda has touched it.

The person is deceased.

The black word

is edible,

and is in this room.

It is not a living thing.

It did not exist before the birth of mankind.

It is not a tool.

It's possible to get it for less than 1,000 yen.

The Guide still has three chances to consult with a friend.

Teruasa Oda can only consult with a friend once more.

If The Guide guesses correctly this turn,

he will be the winner.

I'm out of time.

Forget a counterattack. If he guesses correctly now, I've lost.

If that happens…

All eight of us who participated in the tournament will be killed.

The only way to save everyone

is for Teruasa to win the game.

And as soon as the game ends,

they're going to attack the G20 summit venue.

If we let that happen, the world will fall into chaos.

And a huge number of people will lose their lives.

All of that pressure on Terurin's shoulders…

Don't give up!

You have fought very bravely.

I am proud of you.

Keep your opinions to yourself.

I had respect for you when I was a child.

But now…

I feel sorry for you, clinging pathetically to the keys.

I will use the keys to create a society free from conflict, and save thousands.

You're wrong!

The keys are just instruments from which desire is born.

Something like that can't be used to save anyone.

Wasn't it you who said we should save people from their desires?

Have you forgotten?

When you first showed me the key…

It's desire that can never be satisfied.

The flames of desire ignite conflict.

It's written in history.

That's why, no matter how much luck you have, you shouldn't be greedy.

You mustn't obsess over getting what you want.

Try to become someone who can save those

who become consumed by desire.

I wanted to become like you.

That's why after you were gone,

I always tried to follow in your footsteps.

Even when I got caught up in the civil war in Africa,

or when I escaped with captives in South America,

I thought desperately, "What would you do?"

Trying my best to save those around me.

That's why Teruasa

tried to save Maruko.

Will you quit?

It's foolish to risk your life dancing with the devil.

That's not the only time.

When he fought Hyodo…

What you really want

is to be in the spotlight again.

If that's so, then you don't need the key.

You can achieve it by effort alone.

Don't give in to desire!

I see.

Terurin got his excessive sense of justice

from his dad?

Whatever danger awaits,

I will crush Gungnir's ambitions.

That's what saved me too.

You're a tough player.

The power to win was already in you.

Don't you remember what you said to me

that night we went camping?

I remember very well, even now.

Then what is all this for?

You're going to kill a lot of people.

Then let me ask you.

Do you think you are innocent?

You also took a life when you first played ACMA: GAME.

I knew that man too.

That man

had his life taken by Gado.

Deceased.

I want to make a guess.

Then, Guide, go ahead.

The correct answer is

the head of the Maruko family,

Mitsuhide Maruko.

If I lose, you can kill me on the spot.

I accept your guess.

The answer is…

INCORRECT

…incorrect!

The Guide was wrong?

Maruko's name came to mind first.

But that's not what I wrote.

I knew that was a name you'd reach eventually.

He's not invincible after all.

One more chance.

Guide, why not use a doll?

I don't need to.

- But... - Don't overstep.

Forgive me.

Now's my chance to counterattack.

It won't open!

It must be an enclosed space.

Can Oda stop The Guide alone?

I'd rather he doesn't.

If The Guide wins, everyone's going to die!

But it will shake up the world.

It's going to be a historical moment.

Isn't it exciting?

Ouch.

Pain is proof you're alive.

You should be thankful.

Oda,

we're counting on you.

Then it's your turn,

Teruasa Oda.

Choose whether to ask a question or make a guess.

Okay.

The black word

is something that didn't exist before mankind,

so it must be a food created by humans.

And you can get it for less than 1,000 yen,

and it's in this room.

There's one thing in this room that fits those conditions.

But I can't be 100% sure.

Should I consult with Ui and the others?

Or save my last doll, and make my own guess?

What should I do?

By the way,

I came here to play the game, but also to separate you from your past.

First, you lost a memory of your mother.

Next, a memory of me.

If there is anything worthy of a final farewell,

what better than…

the lives of your friends.

All of them

risked their lives to be here.

I just need to win.

Gado, I want to make a guess.

Then, let's hear it.

The black stone slab is

herbal tea.

The answer is…

incorrect!

No.

I was wrong.

What a pity to fail at such a critical moment.

Then the turn goes to the other player.

Guide, choose whether to answer or guess.

Do you feel as though you've been pushed into an abyss?

How are you going to get out?

Or maybe better to give up.

Even in an abyss,

miracles can happen.

As long as you don't give up,

there is always a ray of light.

Miracles?

I too believed in such things long ago.

To restore this filthy world,

first, I hunted down the key owners.

Instead of fighting, I asked for cooperation.

I taught them how to use the keys,

and persuaded them to join me.

But…

once they realized the power of the keys,

they were consumed by desire, and began to fight.

Not only that, but I became the target of their desires.

They wanted my company's fortune and management rights,

and even my family's lives.

So your death…

Chairman Oda!

Dad! Dad!

That's why

I decided to end my life as Seiji Oda.

After that, I tried to find people to join me, by searching for key owners,

but there was not a single person

who agreed with my noble ideals.

My faith in humanity dimmed,

and all that was left was despair.

And so I decided

that I would take the lead

and guide people in the right direction.

The Guide was born in that moment.

To prepare for a new world,

I brought together successful people from different fields to create Gungnir.

All that time…

you never once considered destroying the keys?

Destroy them?

You've seen it all.

The ugliness the keys bring out in people.

You didn't think a world without the keys would be a better place?

There is no point trying to get rid of the keys.

What do you mean?

A devil's key can never be destroyed.

They can't be destroyed?

Exactly.

It is not possible to eradicate them from this world.

Even if the owner of a key dies,

the key is simply returned to us.

Then we allow the key to fall in front of another.

It is done at random.

And so the history of conflict repeats itself once more.

Teruasa, don't be fooled.

What?

Devils have long been known for deceiving people.

If you take him seriously, he will only crush your beliefs.

Guide?

I'll ask a question.

What?

He's not making a guess?

That's unusually cautious for him.

He must be after something.

Is the blue word a name from the past?

Now for the answer.

Yes.

Has he figured it out?

If I don't guess correctly now, he'll win the game next turn.

A boat?

Yes.

Seems that Asai found a boat around here before.

Can we use it to get off the island?

No.

But the boat The Guide arrived on must be somewhere.

They're coming this way.

Then the turn goes to the next player.

Teruasa Oda,

will you guess or ask a question?

Teruasa.

Gado, I want to use a doll.

Good,

the last doll.

Are you okay?

You need to carry this burden alone.

You trusted your father all this time, and now you have to fight him.

It must be overwhelming.

He'll try to use it against you by psyching you out.

But, Teruasa…

you're not alone.

We might not be able to do anything,

but we are here by your side.

Ui.

Do you remember this?

You still have it?

The wallet they stole from me in middle school.

It was you who got it back, wasn't it?

I...

When I saw it on my desk,

I was so happy.

What happened to your face?

Fell over in soccer.

I knew I had someone by my side who was looking out for me.

That's why I've come this far.

This time I'm looking out for you.

No matter how this ends, I have no regrets.

I'm just happy…

that I got to see you again.

Ui.

You've always been an important friend to me.

You looked up to me,

thinking of me as your competition.

To tell you the truth,

I thought the same about you.

So when you said you wanted to fight me,

I was happy.

I'm going to defeat you.

I'm glad I got to see you again too.

Teruasa.

Yuki.

It's been amazing

to see your happy face again.

I owe that happiness to you.

You…

Gonna be an A.I. developer?

…were always smiling by our side.

You're so kind.

Ui and I

thought that we had to protect you.

But it was your kindness that protected me.

Thank you.

Teruasa.

You're pleased you met me too, right?

Of course.

I'm a stronger person, thanks to you.

I know the real Yukari.

Your strength saved me many times.

- Jump! - What?

Thank you for fighting with me.

You reassured me.

If you win, you can come and see my show.

I want you to see

how I shine on stage.

You really did

make this a fun ride, right to the end.

I've played countless guys at gambling in my life,

but this is the first time I've been tense just watching a game.

It sucks, huh?

I went to the trouble of betting on you,

and looks like you're gonna lose.

Senya.

You beat me once.

How wonderful it feels!

You were the best opponent ever.

Our game isn't over yet.

There's still something we can do.

But you're by my side now.

This gamble I've got to win.

We didn't follow you because we thought you were going to win,

but because we knew we wouldn't regret

whatever outcome you achieved.

Teruasa,

are you still unsure?

No.

Now I'm confident.

Then go get it.

Gado,

I'll make a guess.

Please go ahead.

Guide,

you can't help but win with a flourish.

So the answer

must be something obvious.

Such as…

the liquid you injected right in front of me.

The drug that stimulates brain function.

If it's a drug,

it's not a living thing or a tool.

Also, it's not usually available for sale.

I'm sure I've heard it costs less than 100 yen.

So it's possible to get it for under 1,000 yen.

Since it's injected into the bloodstream,

it must be safe to enter the stomach.

In other words, it's edible.

The word on the black stone slate is

Theobrom.

I accept your guess.

The answer is…

THEOBROM

Correct.

He did it!

He got it.

All three! All three!

Now we stand a chance.

If The Guide misses the next one…

You finally realized that the drug counted as something edible.

It took you even longer than I thought.

Guide.

Teruasa Oda has three correct answers,

so if you guess incorrectly, you will lose.

That's not going to happen.

I'm certain my answer is correct.

Then, Guide,

do you want to ask a question, or make a guess?

Since it took a lot to get here, shall I use a doll before I answer?

You wish to consult?

Very good.

Get me a glass of water.

What? He's just taking a break?

Jeez. Why's he always gotta be so cocky?

Guide.

I told you not to speak out of turn.

It's not that I don't trust you,

but we must avoid closing the path

to a world without conflict at all costs.

You don't care what happens to this world.

You just want to take my key.

So you'll obey me.

As you wish.

Someone's coming.

Wait, it's not what you think.

I'm Mori. Akira Mori.

The Dragon King Mori?

Are you here playing a game?

Yes.

Do you know about the tournament?

Yes.

I heard about it from Teruasa.

Oda?

The Guide, or Gungnir's leader, is planning something terrible?

Yes.

The true identity of The Guide is Teruasa Oda's father.

What?

Why did you change?

No matter how I try,

I can't believe you are the same man as the Seiji Oda I knew.

Why do you think the chairman of a trading company

would fake his own death

and become obsessed with a world free from conflict?

I started this because of your mother.

Mom?

It was your eleventh birthday.

She died in a traffic accident when traveling in Brussels.

It's okay to cry if you need to.

I can't.

Mom will be sad if I cry.

But that's not the whole truth.

Now you're telling lies just to get to me?

That rainy day in Brussels,

an ambassador from the Republic of Miravelia was targeted.

Your mother was killed in the attack.

Take cover! Move, move, move!

TO TERUASA HAPPY 11TH BIRTHDAY

WISHING YOU A FUTURE FILLED WITH HAPPINESS

Impossible.

Of course, you wouldn't know.

At the time, Japan was set to provide several tens of billions of yen

in humanitarian aid to the war-torn Republic of Miravelia.

At that moment…

if it came out that a Japanese citizen had lost her life due to terrorism,

it would impact the decision to provide aid.

And so…

the terrorist attack was covered up.

I found out

after I became the owner of a key.

It was right after the day you and I went camping.

Your mother

was killed by a world that continues to start ugly conflicts.

You must understand.

Originally, this tournament was for you,

to put your strength to the test.

For me?

It was designed to challenge you.

And so…

I put you up against those who are closest to you.

As I hoped, you came out on top

and found your way back to me.

I don't believe that was chance…

but fate.

Teruasa…

you're ready.

Join me.

Let's restore this world together.

I can't do that.

I'm going to win this game

and destroy every last key.

And…

I'm going to rescue you from the key's spell.

Looks like I have no choice but to finish this.

Bring glory to Gungnir.

Gado, I'll make a guess.

Guide, go ahead.

The blue word is a human Teruasa has touched.

A deceased person.

A name from the past.

The correct answer is…

Reika Oda's maiden name,

Reika Yamamoto.

I accept your guess.

The answer is…

incorrect!

The winner of Word Investigation is

Teruasa Oda!

We won.

We won!

We did it, we won!

Unbelievable.

Guide,

I beat you.

Time to settle the bets.

Once the enclosed space is opened,

first the loser will hand over all of his keys to the winner.

What the hell?

Next, as demanded by Teruasa Oda,

The Guide will bring Gungnir to an end.

A world free from conflict

is what I want too.

So,

I don't deny your ideals.

Humans thrive

by following their desires,

but at the same time,

they engage in ugly conflicts to satisfy such cravings.

The devil's key is a forbidden tool

that stirs up man's desires.

Something like that won't save anyone.

If you really were The Guide, leader of mankind,

you wouldn't have been defeated.

Isn't that right?

That may be so.

Wait! Guide...

That's enough.

Gungnir is over.

What a showdown between father and son.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Guide.

Since you no longer have a key, this will be my final goodbye.

Teruasa Oda,

I look forward to seeing you again.

Wait.

Gado…

I have no intention of meeting you again.

What's that supposed to mean?

I told you, you can't completely destroy the keys.

Don't expect me to believe the words of a devil.

Whatever you say is impossible

is likely the opposite.

I…

Will find a way to destroy all of the keys.

If you can find a way,

be my guest.

I'm sure we will meet again.

Guide!

It's over.

Teruasa…

Wow, fancy!

It's open!

Oda.

- Mori, are you okay? - Yes.

Who won? The Guide?

Teruasa would never lose.

Thank god! He saved us!

Teruasa!

Ryukan!

Hyodo, you all came too.

Okamoto.

You look well.

It's been a long time.

I'm not sure what I should call you.

Hyodo-chin, been a while.

You're here too?

What? Got a problem?

Hoshin!

Don't move!

This time I'll aim for the head.

What are you trying to do?

I should be asking you that.

After ten long years,

just when I thought we could finally collect all 99 keys,

you decide to put on a display of fatherly affection

and hand them all over to your son?

Don't make me laugh!

Give it up.

They were never your keys to have.

Yes.

That's why you're no use to me now.

Look out!

Are you okay?

Hey! Hey!

No!

What have you done?

Why?

Why you?

It's going to collapse!

Everyone, get out of here!

Ui!

Quickly!

- We're going to die! - Go!

- Run! - Teruasa!

- Yuki! Quickly! - No! No!

- Teruasa! - Quickly!

Hurry! Hurry!

Teruasa,

what was the last word you wrote down?

Forget it, let's go!

Was it me?

SEIJI ODA

Yes.

The Seiji Oda I knew died 13 years ago.

Go to Miteratert.

The devil's keys.

Extinguish them.

Please.

My son.

Dad!

Dad. Dad! Dad!

- We need to go! - Dad!

- There's no time! - Dad!

Teruasa!

Teruasa!

Come and try this.

Wow, it's yummy.

You like it!

Hey! He said it's yummy.

That's right,

your mom designed that with the food department.

Think it'll sell?

Then can I join the company and figure out how to sell stuff?

You want to do what your dad does?

I wonder if I can.

I'm sure of it.

If you keep working hard.

You've grown up.

One week has passed since the ACMA: GAME tournament.

No one suspects that they were about to lose their lives in an attack,

and the world goes on as usual.

Like nothing happened.

No one knows what occurred on that island.

Not a word was announced about The Guide or Gungnir.

We searched the island,

but Hoshin was nowhere to be found.

He escaped.

Ryukan invited me to join Oda Group,

but I refused.

There's still something I need to do.

Did you hear? The fans are going to vote for who takes lead vocals.

What? Isn't it me?

Yukari, how many shows did you miss?

Management was furious.

You didn't even pick up the phone. What were you doing?

I guess I was growing up.

DRAGON KING AKIRA MORI VS NEWCOMER AI OROCHI

As a player who rarely appears before the media,

what circumstances led to you taking on a game against AI?

One of my previous opponents is Manabe,

the developer of OROCHI.

Yuki!

Relax.

Got it.

Breathe.

That's the spirit!

Teruasa's not answering?

I know.

It's only the biggest show of a lifetime for you and OROCHI.

What the hell is he doing?

Do you think he's searching for keys?

We told him we'd help him. He wouldn't go alone.

Don't worry. He'll be here.

OROCHI, locate Teruasa's key, just in case.

Roger that.

Let's see.

Looks like the keys are hidden where they should be.

Wait, there's one key outside the room.

What?

Ui, Yuki,

what are you looking at?

Teruasa's key is abroad for some reason.

- Cambodia? - Cambodia?

CAMBODIA

CAMBODIA

MITERATERT RUINS

Collect all 99 keys and end it all.

My father's dying wish falls to me.

Terurin,

I couldn't help joining.

Senya, how did you get here?

You're here to collect the keys, right?

You went off by yourself again.

Ui-ui and the others will be angry.

I'm doing this alone.

I know the names of the winners of the tournaments that took place abroad.

You may have done your research,

but so did I.

So…

where do we go from here?

Good question.

Our first stop…
