Gajari, I've come to fulfill our promise.

Kouga Saejima, go to the Promised Ground.

Find the Fang of Sorrow that belongs to me,

and bring it back.

Go, Garo. The Golden Knight!

"GARO AND THE WAILING DRAGON"

Rei! Tsubasa has won through!

I thought so.

Then I'll ride him hard.

Rec, you fixed that, right?

The Senate asked me to.

Try harder.

Line up!

Bow.

He's making it hard to hate him.

Really?

So it's you and me.

We'll fight in the finals.

The one who wins the Savak

is allowed to see the dead.

Who would you like to meet?

Let's see.

Who is it? Shizuka or Douji?

Not telling.

Tsubasa, you'd better give it all you've got.

Of course.

Don't use your magic though.

But the rules say it's okay

as long as you don't use the Magic Brush.

Are you kidding?

No magic then.

But I'll use everything in my power.

Fine. It'll be a fair fight then.

Kouga would've loved to see you both fight.

I don't think so.

He'd want to fight with one of us, the winner.

You're right.

A true swordsman like him would think so.

Zaruba, is this the Promised Ground?

Stop, I don't mean to fight.

It's pain.

A close call.

Hey, this is a rare sight.

Are you "human"?

Aren't you?

Of course not. I'm a "thing".

A thing? That's right.

This is the World of Things.

What's my name?

Yes, it's Meru.

Thank god I remembered.

Meru.

Tell me, why were you trapped?

I was a gift.

Because I'm so pretty.

Say something.

Is that all?

There's a Queen called Judam.

She likes to collect beautiful things.

To eat.

You saved my life.

Mister...

Kouga.

Kouga!

Why have you come to our world?

To find the Fang of Sorrow.

The Fang of Sorrow?

Do you know?

Not really.

You might find out if you go to the Shrine of Wisdom.

You know the place?

I do.

But it's dangerous.

I know.

Then follow me.

I see.

So you left that beautiful thing behind.

What a shame.

A shame indeed.

I was saving a place for it right here.

You see?

But you left it behind.

Promise me you won't fail next time.

You can go now. Thank you.

There is no next time, fools.

Esaruto.

Your Majesty!

Queen Judam, I'm at your command.

Show me.

Yes, Your Majesty.

He looks like a human.

Human?

A fierce face.

But beautiful.

The Shrine of Wisdom lies under that sun.

Wait.

You really going?

Yes, don't worry.

You...

You look strong.

Are you what they call, "humans"?

I had a feeling I was being watched.

Who are you?

Me? I'm a nobody.

Not even a thing.

It was nice talking to a human. Take care.

Bye, Kakashi.

What did you just say?

I said, "Bye, Kakashi."

Kakashi?

You looked like one.

Kakashi, huh?

It doesn't mean anything.

But it does.

It means everything.

That's right. My name is...

Kakashi...

Thanks for giving me a name.

Kouga!

What happened?

Did you give him a name?

What if I did?

This is a cemetery for things that have no names nor bodies.

Give us our names...

I just sliced one.

They're "No-names".

Things that have been turned into nothing.

Hey, it's me! I'm home.

Kuromaru!

Were you worried? I'm...

Kakashi.

That's right. It's your master's new name.

Get it?

Don't worry, my heart is pumping, too.

By the way, has the Devil Dragon descended?

That stealing bitch!

We'll get our Scale back.

The Black Scale is shining happily!

I know.

We must collect more of these beautiful things.

This is the Shrine of Wisdom?

It's been here for ages.

The Guard here can be both kind

and fierce depending on its visitor.

Have you been inside?

It's Silver Grass. Leave it to me.

You can go in.

Who is it?

Guard of the Shrine!

I've come for the Fang of Sorrow.

The Fang of Sorrow?

Zaruba.

Who's Zaruba?

I am the Guard of the Shrine.

You've only changed your form. You are Zaruba.

Well, I may have been in the past.

But now I preside over wisdom.

I am the guardian of the Shrine.

Your mind has created this form

because you're a swordsman.

Don't.

You'll find your answer after you've defeated me.

Then I have no choice but to fight you.

Why is it?

Somehow you seem familiar.

That's because you are mine!

Zaruba.

Kouga, long time no see.

I didn't know the Guard of the Shrine of Wisdom was so little.

Size doesn't matter when it comes to wisdom.

I heard that this Shrine exists from long ago.

I must've caused a time lag of a few hundred years when I arrived.

You seem to have lost the Garo Sword and the Magic Robe.

The Sword turned into the Red Dog

right in front of my eyes.

I know you're there.

Reveal yourself.

What do you want?

My name is Kiria, from the Land of Bliss.

Please.

Kouga, our people need your help.

You must destroy the Devil Dragon with your sword.

The Devil Dragon?

"Kakashi"? A weird name.

How ugly...

That jerk's come to life again

with the help of a human.

Next time, we'll destroy him for good.

Filthy! Esaruto, show me something beautiful.

Of course!

Beautiful.

I love her song, too.

What's wrong?

I'm terribly sorry to inform you.

But we seem to have used up all the energy here.

What a shame.

I was getting tired of the scenery.

Let us move on.

Yes, Your Majesty.

The Devil Dragon's deed?

It's only the Black Wind.

The Devil Dragon's breath.

Just an omen of its descent.

It'll come when that moon turns completely black.

When the Devil Dragon descends,

most things will turn into nothing.

If that happens, my people...

I'd like to help, but I don't know how to destroy it.

Besides, my purpose for coming here

is to retrieve an object.

Which is?

The Fang of Sorrow, right?

Right.

The Devil Dragon will appear from the Sea of Grief.

Maybe...

Maybe the Devil Dragon's fang is the Fang of Sorrow.

What is it for?

I exchanged a contract with a higher power to save my friends.

A higher power...

we call "Gajari".

Gajari never takes sides with anyone.

But it has given us the power to fight off evil.

During battle, man has exchanged contracts.

Gajari promised to help man for a few hundred years.

But the Fang which made that possible

disappeared between time and space.

If that Fang isn't retrieved,

the Human World will become full of monsters.

I see.

So the Devil Dragon appears between time and space.

Then could the Devil Dragon's fang be...

What do you think?

I can't be sure,

but it could be the Fang of Sorrow.

Will you destroy the Devil Dragon?

Not yet.

First, I need to find my Sword and Robe.

Without the armor, we have no chance.

In any case, you must visit our village.

Thank you, Kuromaru.

Smells lovely.

We'll fly straight to the Sea of Grief.

How will I become one with the Devil Dragon

without the Scale?

By getting it back.

Is he human?

Looks weird.

Who made humans?

Don't know. Hey, who's your maker?

Don't humans laugh? Cry? Get angry?

Little one.

This human is a weird fella.

He seldom laughs or cries.

Though he gets angry sometimes.

Then sing us a song.

Yeah, sing...

Kiria.

Legend has it...

that we "things" become purified when we hear humans sing.

Please, forgive our rudeness.

I don't sing.

Then let's dance.

Show us a dance.

Great idea.

Yes, dance.

Dance... I don't dance, either. I never do.

Don't worry. Your heart will do the dancing.

A cute smile.

You...

I'm Kakashi. You gave me my name, remember?

Come to ruin our fountain again?

Stingy, it's everybody's fountain.

They're annoyed with you. Go away.

No way. I need the water to make superb tea.

Sorry Mister, but I'm pretty good.

Want to fight?

Sure. Bring it on, Mister.

This human is strong.

He's not any human. He's a Golden Knight.

A Golden Knight? I've never killed humans.

But I might now.

Zaruba, that bird.

It's the Magic Robe. I feel its wave motion.

So that bird is Kouga's robe?

Really?

How dare you get in our way!

Kouga, here is your ride.

Hey, wait! We're in the middle of a fight.

Drive carefully.

Zaruba, tell me how to turn it back.

Touch it as you did me. It'll remember you.

What? A true swordsman wouldn't flee.

Go away. Why should I?

Kouga Saejima.

Humans have weird names.

What now?

Let me out! Give me back my Scale.

Shut up! You dirty, shabby, piece of nothing.

Kouga, beware of that woman!

I'm thrilled to have a human in my castle.

Strange. I thought humans laugh and cry.

You don't do any of these things.

Can you sing?

That bird is mine. Give it back.

I'm afraid I can't.

Everything beautiful in this world is mine.

My feast.

Selfish woman.

I admire humans from the bottom of my heart.

Humans can make beautiful things.

It's delightful to see you people create so much beauty.

On the other hand, things don't make anything.

They're not always beautiful.

Like you for example.

See how ugly he is? I loathe ugliness.

Try it. It's tasty.

Kakashi's right.

You don't know anything about beauty.

But I do. Because humans invented me.

But it's a pity how humans come to neglect their creations.

So...

That's why...

Good job, Kuromaru!

Stop.

The moon is almost full.

We don't have time for them.

Jump.

Nice work, Kuromaru.

What's wrong? You need to retrieve the Sword first.

I see.

Aren't you gonna thank me?

Why? We're the ones who helped you.

Really? Never mind.

Okay. Then we're even.

How do you like my place? Prettier than her castle, huh?

The sword must be really important...

What's it to you?

Hey, how about a cup of tea?

Or a rematch?

Just kidding.

Don't go...

What?

Why don't we team up?

Team up?

Soon the Devil Dragon will appear.

You know?

I want to become one with the Devil Dragon,

but that woman is in the way.

That Queen?

Yeah, her name is Judam.

She stole away my Scale.

You want it back?

Yes.

Besides, if we team up,

we're sure to beat that woman.

No one can do, Kakashi.

Our mission is to retrieve the Fang of the Devil Dragon.

The fang? Is that all?

I'll give it to you when I become the Devil Dragon.

What will you do when you are one?

That's easy.

I'll become human.

That's impossible.

Not at all.

With the Devil Dragon's power, one can enter the Human World.

That's what Judam's after.

Exactly. But I'm sure she has other plans.

You both have to give it up.

I'm destroying the Devil Dragon.

Then I guess I have no choice but to kill you.

Though I find it hard to dislike you.

I've seen your skills.

You can't beat me.

We'll see.

I'll pierce your face.

You jerk.

What?

Time's up.

What do you mean?

The Devil Dragon is about to descend.

Oh no...

So long. Go anywhere you please.

Why would I care about them?

Humans are weak.

They cry, cheat, and they're...

cold-hearted!

What's this?

Raudo!

Talk to me.

What happened?

The Castle of Green appeared from the sky.

They turned us into fuel.

That's so terrible.

Hang in.

Raudo!

Kiria, do you remember?

That we came into this world at the same time?

How could I forget?

Kiria, thank you.

I love you, Kiria.

Raudo, don't turn into nothing.

Raudo!

Hey...

What is it?

That's strange. Why am I crying?

Your best friend just turned into nothing, that's why.

Nothing? Friend?

Who's that?

Don't remember?

I've done it again.

No matter how precious they may be,

we forget things that become nothing.

We forget their existence, their names.

All that's left is pain.

Your friend's name was Raudo.

I haven't forgotten.

Raudo...

You are a true human, Kouga.

Wonderful!

Tell me, Kouga.

If I were to turn into nothing...

I'll never forget you.

Your name is Kiria, a master archer.

Kouga...

Raruki!

Meru?

What is it?

Judam kidnapped Meru.

She's offering her to the Devil Dragon.

What?

The Devil Dragon's about to appear.

Let's go. Help me rescue Meru.

Right away.

I thought you were prettier.

Let me out, witch!

Such filthy words.

If you like beautiful things,

why become one with the ugly Devil Dragon?

Because if I do, I can get out of this world.

As long as I can get my revenge on humans, I don't care.

You're my offering to the Devil Dragon.

What's the point in all this?

It's something humans would do, is it not?

The wave... it's stopped.

Where's my Scale?

I'm becoming one with the Devil Dragon!

How persistent can he be?

Darn you, Judam!

Kuromaru. Darn it!

Kouga!

Myself again.

Kouga, there it is.

Kiria, you go find a safe place.

And you?

I'll turn the Garo Sword back to its form.

Kouga!

The Garo Sword!

I am your comrade, the Makai Knight.

Father.

Kouga.

This isn't Kouga's imagination,

he's projecting his mind.

Zaruba, you seem fine.

My memory with you is gone,

but I feel close to you.

What is it?

Father.

About the things here...

They were created by humans and then forgotten.

Humans give shape to their imagination.

But it's not the shape that matter.

It's how much heart and soul that's put into it.

You've become strong, Kouga.

I am now the Makai Knight.

I'll always be with you.

My thoughts are with your sworn-friends.

Father.

Don't look back.

Go, Kouga!

We did it!

Kouga! There you are.

That's more like yourself, Kouga.

Where's Kakashi?

He's losing again.

The Devil Dragon!

It's coming!

Why rescue me?

Somehow, I find it hard to dislike you.

Judam!

You again. Get out of my way.

Who am I? What's my name?

My name. Don't wanna disappear!

The spell, "Forget-my-name".

Too bad it doesn't work on humans.

Why become the Devil Dragon?

If I do, I can enter the Human World.

You see?

What will you do?

Destroy all the humans.

Why?

You should know.

Everything in this Promised Ground

is made from the imagination of humans.

Humans create us, love us,

and then they cast us away.

Have you ever thought how much pain you've caused us?

I wish to take revenge on humans

and destroy them as they did us.

Then both humans and things can all become nothing.

Humans shouldn't have forgotten us.

You're the one who's forgotten us.

What?

I don't know what you were before.

But you came into this world because humans wanted you to.

Don't you know they put in their hearts and souls for you?

Of course I do!

That's why I hate them!

This is the Devil Dragon?

A piece of cake.

Lovely colors. Colors I wanted to see.

Can I still fly?

What is it doing?

Gouten!

It's heading for the Human World.

Kouga!

We're here.

It's gone in.

We're doomed!

Humans, our hearts and souls.

Take it!

Forgive me, Judam.

I know why I don't hate you.

I used to train a little swordsman.

You're...

When my body wore out,

the children grew strong.

That made me happy.

Don't be sad.

Some day, some other human will create me.

The things here asked me who my maker was.

You're one of them.

So long.

Kouga!

There you are.

Thanks to you, our world is saved, Kouga.

No.

Kakashi and you two are the ones who did it.

It's the human's will to create

that really saved the world.

This Sword is here to protect their spirits.

Someone has remembered him.

He's gone to the Human World.

Someone's remembered me.

Kiria, thanks for everything.

We shall meet again in the Human World.

So this is it.

No, it's not the Fang of Sorrow.

You crazy?

I am the Fang of Sorrow.

Right Gajari?

That's right, Garo, the Golden Knight.

What do you mean?

The Fang of Sorrow is something created by humans.

The same can be said about the Makai Knight.

But Kouga's not a part of Master Gajari.

Just a Makai Knight.

No, I was given special powers by Gajari.

As the guardian.

That's right.

Go into the light, and bring back the Fang as promised.

Garo, the Golden Knight.

Well, I'll turn back into my usual form.

Yes, you'd better.

You knew?

Sure, Kaoru.

You're my friend.

Thanks.

You were a fine opponent, Tsubasa.

But you won the match.

I sure did.

See you.

Rei, take care.

I will, thanks.

I knew you'd come back.

So you won, Rei.

How about it? This could be the real finals.

Cut it out. Both of you.

Kouga, are you sure about this?

Savak rules.

Right.

The first to bleed loses, okay?

Fine.

That reminds me.

The one who wins the Savak

gets to meet with the dead.

Wanna know who I met?

No.

Here I come.

Can you take on the two of us?

Bring it on.
