1
00:00:15,375 --> 00:00:17,834
My name is Glass.
2
00:00:17,834 --> 00:00:24,167
As you are a Hero, you can
consider me as your enemy.
3
00:00:24,375 --> 00:00:28,125
She killed a Soul Eater with one hit?
4
00:00:28,334 --> 00:00:30,250
This goes way beyond cheating.
5
00:00:30,876 --> 00:00:33,375
I can't stop shaking...
6
00:00:34,375 --> 00:00:35,709
I'm Naofumi.
7
00:00:36,167 --> 00:00:38,709
Naofumi? I see.
8
00:00:40,876 --> 00:00:43,876
Then shall we begin
9
00:00:44,459 --> 00:00:47,209
the true battle of this Wave?
10
00:01:08,250 --> 00:01:12,417
"The Rising of the Shield Hero"
11
00:02:30,083 --> 00:02:34,042
"Episode 12: The Stranger in Black"
You may have the first move, Hero Naofumi.
12
00:02:34,042 --> 00:02:37,083
"Episode 12: The Stranger in Black"
You can send your followers to charge me.
13
00:02:37,250 --> 00:02:39,334
"Followers"? His?!
14
00:02:39,334 --> 00:02:40,584
Us?!
15
00:02:40,584 --> 00:02:41,792
Naofumi's "followers"?!
16
00:02:41,959 --> 00:02:43,417
Not a chance!
17
00:02:58,709 --> 00:02:59,959
Shooting Star Sword!
18
00:02:59,959 --> 00:03:01,250
Shooting Star Spear!
19
00:03:01,250 --> 00:03:02,417
Shooting Star Bow!
20
00:03:16,959 --> 00:03:18,918
Is that all you can do?
21
00:03:21,959 --> 00:03:25,375
Ring Dance Zero: Inverted Four Seasons.
22
00:03:36,459 --> 00:03:39,209
As I would expect from simple followers.
23
00:03:40,375 --> 00:03:41,959
Sh-She's strong!
24
00:03:44,417 --> 00:03:46,792
"Result - Soul Tonic (Recovers SP)"
25
00:03:47,167 --> 00:03:49,709
Perhaps you can be more entertaining.
26
00:03:51,209 --> 00:03:53,792
Sorry, but I don't care to entertain you.
27
00:03:53,792 --> 00:03:55,125
Shield Prison!
28
00:04:00,083 --> 00:04:01,042
Raphtalia!
29
00:04:13,626 --> 00:04:16,334
And you think you can defeat me
with such weak poison?
30
00:04:17,209 --> 00:04:17,876
Filo!
31
00:04:17,918 --> 00:04:19,334
High Quick!
32
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,375
Eight kicks in an instant. Impressive.
33
00:04:24,375 --> 00:04:26,250
But you cannot touch me.
34
00:04:30,918 --> 00:04:32,876
This is pointless.
35
00:04:40,542 --> 00:04:42,167
Both of you, behind me!
36
00:04:43,584 --> 00:04:45,125
Shield Prison!
37
00:04:46,999 --> 00:04:48,501
Inverted Four Seasons.
38
00:04:58,542 --> 00:05:01,959
So you can still stand
after receiving my technique?
39
00:05:02,167 --> 00:05:07,459
Now, when will you use
that shield with the fire?
40
00:05:08,542 --> 00:05:09,626
Master Naofumi.
41
00:05:20,501 --> 00:05:23,167
Come, Rage Shield.
42
00:05:40,292 --> 00:05:43,125
I told you, you cannot touch me.
43
00:05:47,250 --> 00:05:48,042
Filo!
44
00:05:48,751 --> 00:05:50,626
Raphtalia, take care of Filo!
45
00:06:06,417 --> 00:06:09,792
This is too cold to burn me.
46
00:06:14,959 --> 00:06:18,417
Ring Dance Break: Shell Splitter.
47
00:06:23,959 --> 00:06:24,918
Master Naofumi!
48
00:06:25,292 --> 00:06:28,250
You can still stand after that as well?
49
00:06:28,542 --> 00:06:32,083
It appears your defense, at least,
is worthy of the title of Hero.
50
00:06:32,083 --> 00:06:34,334
I'm honored that you think so highly of me.
51
00:06:34,792 --> 00:06:39,375
So the black flames activate
only in close quarters.
52
00:06:39,375 --> 00:06:42,125
They are not activated by ranged attacks.
53
00:06:42,876 --> 00:06:44,501
You have another card up your sleeve.
54
00:06:45,209 --> 00:06:47,834
Do not hesitate to use it.
Show me what you can do.
55
00:06:48,334 --> 00:06:51,792
If you want it that badly,
then I'll give it to you!
56
00:06:51,834 --> 00:06:53,209
Shield Prison!
57
00:06:55,792 --> 00:06:57,125
Change Shield!
58
00:06:57,542 --> 00:06:59,292
Iron Maiden!
59
00:07:16,417 --> 00:07:19,125
It is not nearly as potent as I imagined.
60
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,959
I am disappointed.
61
00:07:25,584 --> 00:07:26,999
"Failed"Something...
62
00:07:26,999 --> 00:07:28,542
"Failed"Is there anything I can do?
63
00:07:32,751 --> 00:07:34,125
The time has come?
64
00:07:34,626 --> 00:07:36,584
I did not expect it to end so soon.
65
00:07:37,834 --> 00:07:40,542
When I give the signal, cast light magic.
66
00:07:43,459 --> 00:07:47,709
Now, this Wave will end in our victory.
67
00:07:47,709 --> 00:07:50,042
I have no quarrel with you, but-
68
00:07:50,334 --> 00:07:51,459
Now!
69
00:07:51,459 --> 00:07:52,709
Fast Light!
70
00:07:56,375 --> 00:07:57,542
Fast Heal!
71
00:08:00,042 --> 00:08:00,792
Run!
72
00:08:01,209 --> 00:08:02,792
Futile resistance...
73
00:08:19,999 --> 00:08:20,918
Master Naofumi!
74
00:08:20,918 --> 00:08:21,999
Incoming!
75
00:08:27,042 --> 00:08:28,751
Air Strike Shield!
76
00:08:49,584 --> 00:08:52,584
So I cannot defeat him at this distance?
77
00:08:52,834 --> 00:08:54,751
I shall withdraw this time,
78
00:08:54,751 --> 00:08:57,876
but if you are this weak,
our next meeting will be our last.
79
00:08:59,959 --> 00:09:04,542
We shall be victorious in the Waves.
Do remember that.
80
00:09:20,876 --> 00:09:22,334
It's over?
81
00:09:29,999 --> 00:09:33,959
Did we manage to escape?
82
00:09:48,626 --> 00:09:50,459
"Failed"That timer that suddenly appeared...
83
00:09:51,334 --> 00:09:53,876
That must be the time until the Wave ends.
84
00:09:55,292 --> 00:09:57,876
But what are the Waves in the first place?
85
00:09:58,542 --> 00:10:01,083
Aren't they catastrophes
that will destroy the world?
86
00:10:01,792 --> 00:10:06,417
That Glass woman was determined
to defeat me because I was a Hero.
87
00:10:07,083 --> 00:10:09,999
...the true battle of this Wave?
88
00:10:14,584 --> 00:10:16,292
There's too much I don't understand.
89
00:10:17,542 --> 00:10:22,250
But we need to get stronger
before the next Wave.
90
00:10:22,584 --> 00:10:25,167
If we don't, we'll die for sure.
91
00:10:25,667 --> 00:10:27,918
If I feed monster parts to the Shield,
92
00:10:27,918 --> 00:10:30,626
"Soul Eater Shield"I can gain new skills,
93
00:10:30,626 --> 00:10:32,667
"Soul Eater Shield"but to actually gain strength,
94
00:10:32,667 --> 00:10:35,959
"Soul Eater Shield"Raphtalia and Filo need class advancements.
95
00:10:37,167 --> 00:10:39,459
E-Excuse me, Hero!
96
00:10:41,834 --> 00:10:44,876
You will come with me to
the castle to report immediately.
97
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:46,876
What?
98
00:10:46,876 --> 00:10:48,083
"The Rising of the Shield Hero"
99
00:10:48,834 --> 00:10:50,584
Shield Prison!
"The Rising of the Shield Hero"
100
00:10:52,667 --> 00:10:54,000
Change Shield!
101
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,292
Iron Maiden!
102
00:11:19,876 --> 00:11:22,501
We have seen the battle
through our crystal ball.
103
00:11:22,709 --> 00:11:25,626
You have done well to repel the Wave.
104
00:11:25,626 --> 00:11:27,542
As regrettable as that is.
105
00:11:27,999 --> 00:11:30,584
That's not how you thank someone.
106
00:11:31,417 --> 00:11:33,626
Please, Hero!
107
00:11:33,626 --> 00:11:37,876
I understand how you feel, but please,
go with the Captain of the Guard!
108
00:11:41,584 --> 00:11:43,959
We have a question for you.
109
00:11:43,959 --> 00:11:47,250
How did you acquire this power?
110
00:11:47,626 --> 00:11:48,000
Huh?
111
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,834
You have powers that
the Shield Hero should never possess!
112
00:11:51,834 --> 00:11:54,083
You have a duty to explain
how you acquired it.
113
00:11:55,542 --> 00:11:56,918
Now, speak!
114
00:11:56,918 --> 00:11:59,792
Provide us the truth,
with not a single lie or falsehood!
115
00:12:02,918 --> 00:12:05,501
If you want to know,
place your head at my feet.
116
00:12:07,334 --> 00:12:11,292
In my world, when you ask
a favor from someone else,
117
00:12:11,292 --> 00:12:13,459
you put your forehead to the ground.
118
00:12:13,876 --> 00:12:19,083
Say, "I beg of you, grant upon us
ignorant fools your wisdom."
119
00:12:19,083 --> 00:12:20,209
Knave!
120
00:12:20,918 --> 00:12:25,792
You know that I can kill you right now
and escape out the gates unscathed.
121
00:12:26,501 --> 00:12:27,792
You bluff.
122
00:12:31,083 --> 00:12:33,834
I defeated that monster in the Wave.
123
00:12:33,834 --> 00:12:35,542
Any of you care to fight me?
124
00:12:44,083 --> 00:12:47,083
Until the Waves are over,
and I can go back to my world,
125
00:12:47,083 --> 00:12:48,999
I'll assist as little as I need to.
126
00:12:49,584 --> 00:12:51,876
So don't get in my way again.
127
00:12:53,999 --> 00:12:57,999
This disrespect to the King
will not be forgiven, Shield!
128
00:12:59,751 --> 00:13:01,250
Oh, that's it.
129
00:13:01,250 --> 00:13:05,959
Your accursed slaves will pay the price for-
130
00:13:09,626 --> 00:13:13,334
I don't care what kind
of dirty tricks you try.
131
00:13:13,334 --> 00:13:15,999
I'll protect my friends
from you and beat you.
132
00:13:16,667 --> 00:13:18,999
You won't take anything else away from me.
133
00:13:19,709 --> 00:13:22,209
Just try to lay a finger on them.
134
00:13:22,584 --> 00:13:24,626
I'll chase you to the ends of the world
135
00:13:24,626 --> 00:13:27,501
and make you regret ever being born.
136
00:13:33,125 --> 00:13:35,209
Shield!
137
00:13:46,167 --> 00:13:49,167
Your feats in battle were quite impressive...
138
00:13:49,751 --> 00:13:50,792
I moost sey.
139
00:13:52,083 --> 00:13:58,125
Everyone must now admit
to your achievements, Hero,
140
00:13:58,125 --> 00:14:03,792
including some parties who do not
look upon the Shield Hero favorably.
141
00:14:04,918 --> 00:14:07,083
Their virtue is but a facade.
142
00:14:07,083 --> 00:14:09,626
Behind it are conspiracy,
cloaks, and daggers.
143
00:14:10,125 --> 00:14:14,334
It may be best if you act
in the future with caution...
144
00:14:14,876 --> 00:14:15,999
I moost sey.
145
00:14:21,959 --> 00:14:23,083
"I moost sey"?
146
00:14:25,334 --> 00:14:27,209
Oh, Melty!
147
00:14:27,209 --> 00:14:28,334
What do you want?
148
00:14:30,167 --> 00:14:34,751
I heard that you were speaking
with the Shield Hero a moment ago.
149
00:14:36,292 --> 00:14:40,417
And that your conversation
ended in mutual hostility.
150
00:14:43,375 --> 00:14:47,709
Father, if you maintain this
broken relationship with the Shield Hero,
151
00:14:47,709 --> 00:14:49,292
we will be unable to repel the Waves,
152
00:14:49,292 --> 00:14:52,709
and the peace of our country
will be jeopardized.
153
00:14:52,751 --> 00:14:54,584
Please, seek peace with-
154
00:14:55,209 --> 00:14:56,918
Peace with that knave?!
155
00:14:58,292 --> 00:15:00,959
O-Oh, I am not angry with you, Melty!
156
00:15:01,918 --> 00:15:06,083
Father, why do you hate
the Shield Hero so much?
157
00:15:06,751 --> 00:15:08,417
Well...
158
00:15:09,083 --> 00:15:13,709
If we leave him and those damn
demi-humans to their wiles, my family...
159
00:15:14,167 --> 00:15:15,501
Father?
160
00:15:16,042 --> 00:15:18,417
Questioning him is disrespect.
161
00:15:19,709 --> 00:15:23,667
The Queen is not present at the moment,
so the King's word is law.
162
00:15:23,667 --> 00:15:27,334
This holds for us as princesses as well.
163
00:15:27,542 --> 00:15:28,667
Sister.
164
00:15:29,292 --> 00:15:31,292
Father is King.
165
00:15:32,417 --> 00:15:35,125
Any actions he takes which
you do not understand
166
00:15:35,125 --> 00:15:37,375
are taken for the future of the country.
167
00:15:37,792 --> 00:15:42,876
I understand that you are of an age
when you still want Father's favors,
168
00:15:42,876 --> 00:15:46,792
but you should have some restraint, Melty.
169
00:15:47,876 --> 00:15:49,876
Some advice from your older sister.
170
00:15:50,459 --> 00:15:52,918
Thank you for your advice.
171
00:15:52,918 --> 00:15:55,792
However, this does not concern you, Sister.
172
00:15:57,209 --> 00:16:02,501
Just like Father and Mother,
I am thinking of the future of our country.
173
00:16:02,501 --> 00:16:07,459
That is the duty of one
in line to the throne.
174
00:16:08,501 --> 00:16:10,626
Melty, you...
175
00:16:12,375 --> 00:16:14,250
If you will excuse me, Father.
176
00:16:16,209 --> 00:16:18,667
O-Oh, Melty...
177
00:16:18,667 --> 00:16:19,709
Papa.
178
00:16:42,209 --> 00:16:45,876
You actually picked a fight with the King?
179
00:16:46,125 --> 00:16:47,959
I didn't pick one.
180
00:16:47,959 --> 00:16:49,042
He was asking for one.
181
00:16:49,209 --> 00:16:52,584
Don't I give you enough quests
without him giving you any?
182
00:16:53,417 --> 00:16:56,209
But how about that class advancement?
183
00:16:56,626 --> 00:16:58,209
Considering what's between you,
184
00:16:58,209 --> 00:17:01,501
they won't let you use the Dragon Hourglass.
185
00:17:01,834 --> 00:17:05,375
I'm planning to head
to Siltvelt or Shieldfreeden.
186
00:17:05,626 --> 00:17:09,542
Well, I thought you'd head
to them one day, kid.
187
00:17:09,834 --> 00:17:12,167
I'd recommend Shieldfreeden.
188
00:17:12,751 --> 00:17:15,751
The Slave Merchant
also recommended Shieldfreeden.
189
00:17:15,999 --> 00:17:19,125
Something about a demi-human
country being tolerant of humans?
190
00:17:19,125 --> 00:17:20,417
Yeah.
191
00:17:20,417 --> 00:17:25,751
The other country-Siltvelt-is has an
extreme case of demi-human supremacy.
192
00:17:25,751 --> 00:17:27,501
But maybe the Shield Hero-
193
00:17:27,501 --> 00:17:30,667
Master, are we going to go traveling again?
194
00:17:30,667 --> 00:17:31,417
Yeah.
195
00:17:31,792 --> 00:17:33,667
Yay!
196
00:17:33,667 --> 00:17:36,042
-Traveling, traveling!
-It'd take a month with a horse cart,
197
00:17:36,042 --> 00:17:38,375
but the little bird lady'll
be faster than that.
198
00:17:38,667 --> 00:17:42,999
I'll gather up the supplies you'll need
and load them into the cart.
199
00:17:43,209 --> 00:17:45,709
And could you get Raphtalia a new sword?
200
00:17:45,709 --> 00:17:47,375
I have a backup sword.
201
00:17:47,584 --> 00:17:48,751
But...
202
00:17:48,751 --> 00:17:52,000
We are going on a long journey.
We need to save all we can!
203
00:17:56,167 --> 00:17:58,834
Leaving on the same day we packed?
204
00:17:58,834 --> 00:18:01,999
Mr. Elhart always works so fast.
205
00:18:02,751 --> 00:18:03,751
Yeah.
206
00:18:08,751 --> 00:18:10,542
Hey, kid.
207
00:18:10,542 --> 00:18:13,999
I loaded some new stuff in.
You could call them farewell gifts.
208
00:18:13,999 --> 00:18:15,959
Use them if you like them.
209
00:18:16,459 --> 00:18:19,292
It's an accessory you can
equip on your shield.
210
00:18:19,876 --> 00:18:22,083
It'll help you figure out
what your shield can do,
211
00:18:22,083 --> 00:18:24,626
and a bunch of other stuff.
212
00:18:24,999 --> 00:18:26,667
For the young lady, a sword.
213
00:18:27,626 --> 00:18:30,209
It's the same as the one that broke.
214
00:18:30,501 --> 00:18:32,542
I thought something
she's used to would be best.
215
00:18:33,083 --> 00:18:35,125
Also for the young lady,
216
00:18:35,542 --> 00:18:36,834
a magic sword.
217
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,959
It'll work wonders on non-physical enemies.
218
00:18:43,417 --> 00:18:49,292
This useful item is just in case
the little bird lady can't pull the cart.
219
00:18:50,626 --> 00:18:52,999
Equip it for the strength of a hundred men!
220
00:18:52,999 --> 00:18:55,000
Even you can pull the cart now, kid!
221
00:19:16,626 --> 00:19:17,876
I like traveling.
222
00:19:18,459 --> 00:19:20,667
No one can tie me down. I'm free.
223
00:19:21,334 --> 00:19:24,334
I don't have to deal with
royalty or the other Heroes.
224
00:19:26,375 --> 00:19:27,834
I've found you!
225
00:19:35,167 --> 00:19:36,918
Oh, it's Melly!
226
00:19:37,334 --> 00:19:40,292
-Filo!
-Hi! Good to see you!
227
00:19:40,292 --> 00:19:43,542
-Melly! Melly! Faster! Faster!
-Master Naofumi, it was only a short while,
228
00:19:43,542 --> 00:19:46,083
but we did travel with her.
229
00:19:46,709 --> 00:19:49,999
Master, Melly is a good girl.
230
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,501
Shield Hero,
231
00:20:03,417 --> 00:20:07,584
I ask you to return to the capital for
another audience with King Aultcray.
232
00:20:07,751 --> 00:20:08,709
I refuse.
233
00:20:12,667 --> 00:20:15,918
Apologize for your disrespect toward the King
and make peace-
234
00:20:15,918 --> 00:20:16,959
I refuse!
235
00:20:19,125 --> 00:20:23,751
The power of the Heroes
is necessary to repel the Waves.
236
00:20:23,751 --> 00:20:27,999
And without assistance
from the King, the Heroes-
237
00:20:28,501 --> 00:20:30,042
Assistance?
238
00:20:30,042 --> 00:20:32,792
I'm the one giving assistance here.
239
00:20:33,125 --> 00:20:35,083
Until the Waves are over, anyway.
240
00:20:38,083 --> 00:20:39,584
Master Naofumi.
241
00:20:40,792 --> 00:20:42,334
She's royalty.
242
00:20:43,167 --> 00:20:44,542
Why...
243
00:20:45,667 --> 00:20:47,250
Why are you both like this?!
244
00:20:47,250 --> 00:20:49,042
Both you and and Father!
245
00:20:50,459 --> 00:20:53,125
A Hero and the King shouldn't fight!
246
00:20:53,125 --> 00:20:54,918
It's just wrong!
247
00:20:54,918 --> 00:20:55,876
Melly?
248
00:20:56,375 --> 00:20:57,918
Don't you think so too, Filo?!
249
00:20:57,918 --> 00:20:59,042
U-Um...
250
00:20:59,042 --> 00:21:00,918
And you too, Raphtalia! Don't you think so?!
251
00:21:01,209 --> 00:21:05,042
W-Well, I'm Master Naofumi's sword...
252
00:21:05,292 --> 00:21:07,876
Hear that? They say so too!
253
00:21:07,876 --> 00:21:09,250
No, they didn't.
254
00:21:09,250 --> 00:21:12,250
Whatever! Just apologize to Father!
255
00:21:12,250 --> 00:21:15,459
Otherwise Mother will have him spanked!
256
00:21:16,626 --> 00:21:19,375
She's just like her father when she's mad...
257
00:21:19,918 --> 00:21:20,918
Huh?
258
00:21:20,918 --> 00:21:23,167
Her mother will have her father spanked?
259
00:21:23,626 --> 00:21:25,792
Listen to people when
they're speaking to you!
260
00:21:37,542 --> 00:21:38,999
This feeling...
261
00:21:39,792 --> 00:21:41,542
It's the same feeling I had back then...
262
00:21:42,375 --> 00:21:45,417
The feeling of someone being framed!
263
00:21:56,417 --> 00:21:57,626
Just return to the capital-
264
00:23:36,250 --> 00:23:40,000
