Long long time ago, God created Heaven and Earth.

Then,

light appeared, this is the creation of the world.

In Heaven, there were gods and angels.

God created angels by infusing his breath with love.

This is the chronicle describing angels with infinite souls.

Please, don't erase the dream of an angel who learned what love is.

Episode 1 The Beginning

You need to work better on your rear defense.

Yes.

It's our turn now!

I'm not done yet!

All right.

Take this!

We still have a long way to go.

Even if we all attack, Judas-san seems to dodge them all.

Oh man, we even failed on the final blow.

At this rate, I wonder how we'll do at the training hall. If we drop out...

That won't happen! Have some confidence.

But...!

Just throughout today, you've had major improvements.

Really?

Yeah. During the second half, I was in danger.

Lies! Didn't you simply block my kick with a barrier?

Your aim was good but it still lacks power.

But, if you train at the training hall, you'll become stronger.

I don't want to go the training hall.

Me neither.

But you need to graduate from there to become an adult so we can't help it.

Right.

But not everything is painful.

The teaching is severe but there are other enjoyable things.

Really? Such as?

It's a secret.

You'll know once you get there.

It's nothing to laugh about.

Right, right! Tell us.

Don't be a tease and tell us.

All right... I will think about it.

Thanks for today.

We'll work harder and become stronger.

See ya!

Bye!

See you tomorrow!

When you're alone, you have such a depressed looking face.

Luka! When did you..?

Just now.

I was just watching how you practiced with those kids.

It would've been nice if you had joined in.

Well, that would have been bad of me for interrupting.

No way. If it's you, they'll happily welcome you.

I'm not good at it.

I was just trying to give comfort to those who are feeling uneasy about the training.

I may be their practice opponent, but mostly, I'm just helping myself.

Being with them feels as though I had returned to the past.

Back to when I believed there was no end to paradise...

Are you worried?

Yeah...

Right now Heaven is restless.

Definitely.

The Great Deity has divided us, the adult angels of equal rank, into high, middle and low.

Our endowments are different and even where we live.

The discriminations increase each day and are making the atmosphere of Heaven restless.

The low rank angels aim to become middle rank,

and the middle rank is jealous of the high rank.

It's true that they're trying to stir up needless jealousy.

Do you think the Great Deity is testing us?

He purposely created the ranks, to see if we would still have faith and love.

I guess that's it.

And, the new Six Saint Beasts will soon be selected.

It appears that they'll be selected from among us: the high rank angels. Therefore, a new rank will be created.

That's not all...

The role of Six Saint Beasts appears to control all the animals on Earth.

Humans who worship God will be favored.

Those who disobey even a bit will be dealt with.

Is this really love?

I just don't get it.

Leave it be for now.

I'm sorry.

I unconsciously say what's on my mind when I'm with you.

Likewise....

I was having similar thoughts like you, so I stopped you.

Please understand.

Yeah, I know.

The Great Deity Zeus is always an absolute existence to us, angels.

It's been a while, Zeus-sama.

Is that you, Yuri?

What brings the chief bodyguard of the Goddess here?

Sir.

Actually, the Goddess wanted to go to the villa to take a break,

so she sent me to inform you.

The Six Saint Beasts will be nominated soon.

The Goddess really likes to do anything she feels like.

It's because she is mentally tired.

Tired mentally?

Due to the ranking, she's been worrying over how to comfort the angels hearts.

Are you saying my method is wrong?!

No, of course not...

But I just thought maybe you should know the Goddess' feelings.

Then tell her this:

"Trust in me and take care of yourself."

Hey, Kira nii-san, let's hurry!

We should stop, Maya.

The opposite side of the bridge is the area for middle rank angels.

But we can only get the Tarim fruits from that side of the forest...

So...

You want to be bullied again?

Because of Zeus-sama's ranking system,

for us to become high rank angels, we should be more careful of what we do.

You know that, too.

Yeah. But I want it.

You like Tarim fruit juice too, don't you?

Maya!

Gai said he likes it too.

I want to get more and share with everyone.

Well, let's go, nii-san.

Wait!

Oh, you can't pass through here.

You guys who reek of human smell, should just have a bath in the river below.

U-Umm...

Don't bother with us.

No way.

You are an eyesore.

Stop it! Don't mess with my little brother.

Shut up!

That's enough!

Goh.

Behave yourself!

Why are you always siding with them?

We are the pure angels! Kira and Maya are mixed with human blood!

What about it?

What's wrong with being mixed blood?

Stop with such bad thoughts.

Damn it! I'll remember this!

Thanks, Goh nii-san!

If you defend us, you will be badmouthed, too.

Isn't that good?

I like you guys.

So, from now on, I'll take care of those who bully you.

We're happy but we're fine since we're used to it.

You mustn't become used to this.

Listen, you guys are...

But...

Goh-san, your thoughts are enough for me.

Kira...

There are some amongst the angels who hate humans.

So they can't accept the fact that we are in Heaven like this.

Even though I get angry, there's nothing I can do about it.

Have you decided to accept it?

Just recently. But he doesn't know anything.

What? I know it too.

Yeah, in another way.

Really... You treat me like a child right away.

Listen, I may not look like it, but I am an adult and also a high ranking angel.

So I'll be attending the Six Saint Beasts nomination tomorrow.

All right, since you already know...

You don't know.

You always treat me like this.

Now now, the fight amongst brothers isn't pretty to look at.

I'll take you back home.

Shin.

Judas...

That's a nice tune.

This is my first time hearing it.

I was trying to play the melody that came into my head. I'm glad that you like it.

The harp is the only thing I'm good with so...

I want to listen more but if you don't get moving soon you'll be late to Rey's house.

Oh yeah.

I knew it. Luckily for you, I came to meet you.

I'm sorry. When I play the harp, I unconsiously forget about the time.

I know I shouldn't be like this since Rey invited us to dinner.

Let's hurry. Rey will be mad if we are late.

Yes!

It's heavy...

Rey.

Geez, that Rey...

He invited us to dinner but we end up helping him with chores.

Give me a break.

Don't you get angry? Since we're doing heavy work.

If I had known about this before hand, I would have shown up on time.

Why are we going through all this trouble for coming early?

What did you say, Gai?

Nothing...

Really? But since I'm preparing dinner,

please don't let me hear any "complaints".

What was that?!

Don't get angry. Your fangs are showing.

I can't help it since that's how I am. Geez.

You!

Let's give Rey a headache.

Gather up, you cuties!

My my

Listen, when I give the signal, you'll attack Rey.

Try to grab his legs. It's fine to bite him too.

If it goes well, I'll feed you something good.

All right, now.

Hey! What are you playing around with?!

Oh my!

No!

Stop it, wait!

You, no!

Wa... Wait, stop!

He never learns.

No! I'm not you enemy.

Wait! All right, all right. It's not me! Wait a minute! Wait!!

It always ends up like this.

Yes, it's easy to figure out what he's up to.

How did it turn out like this?

I see. So that's why your face ended up like this.

You never change, Gai.

Anyhow, I can't help it.

Don't say it like that!

Tomorrow is the nomination of the Six Saint Beasts.

Since you're on such good terms with the animals,

you'll definitely get called first, right?

You will be. Your usual results will definitely show.

Ah, all right! I was wrong!

Since you're being invited to a meal, it's fair to help out.

I'm sorry for doing such a strange thing.

Besides, about the Goddess' mirror, did you return it?

Huh? Mirror?

Oh no...

That expression is...

You still haven't returned it.

No... Well...

Look, the Goddess went to the villa, right?

I thought it would be all right to borrow it for a little longer.

You are just...

Did Gai steal the mirror again?

Like I said, don't say things that make me sound bad.

I...

Yes, of course.

When I almost ran into Gai running out of the Goddess' shrine...

About the recent things said by the Great Deity,

I can't condone them no matter what.

This time the Six Saint Beasts will be chosen from the high rank angels.

What would happen to us angels when we get ranked more than this?

It'll definitely...

There must be something that Zeus-dono has thought of.

Since it was too peaceful, he's sighed over the angels who have become lazy.

It's better to criticize more carefully. If not..

No!

Gai, why are you in such a hurry?

Goh!

You seem worried about your back. Are you being followed?

It's not like that

Check this out!

That's...!

Isn't that the Goddess' mirror?

Correct!

Did you steal it again?

No. Don't say such mean things.

I just borrowed it for a while and Hill return it, well, later.

Honestly...

I can already see the Goddess' angry face.

That's enough with your lecture.

Let's call Rey and see it together.

This place looks like some kind of plaza.

Many humans have gathered and seem to be blessing someone.

It's definitely a wedding.

Look, everyone is smiling happily.

What's a wedding?

Humans are divided into men and women.

If they fall in love with each other, they'll have an oath ceremony called a wedding, and live together.

There's a man and woman, and an oath ceremony?

Live together?

Yes.

In a while, a baby will be born.

So they'll raise their descendents, who will be the next generation.

It's quite different from us.

We are created by the Great Deity.

Even if we've the same life, the way we're born compared to humans is quite different.

Yes, for us, there's no notion of family, descendents and bloodlines.

"There's God and there's us" that's it.

I thought you returned it after all of that, but...

Huh? Where's Gai?

Did he run away?

No, just now he headed to the back door...

Did you hide it in Rey's house?

Geez... that's not funny!

If it's found, I'll be a criminal like you.

It's fine. They won't find it.

Since the Goddess isn't here?

Yeah.

Besides that, why did the Goddess go to the villa at this time?

I was worried about that too.

Geez... Luka and Judas should stop worrying about that, and just watch the mirror with us.

Who is it at this hour?

Yuri!

I thought you followed the Goddess to the villa...

Majority of the bodyguards have followed the Goddess.

I was ordered to protect the shrine.

What's your business? Is it about Gai?

Yes.

I was looking for you, Gai.

R-Really?

Since there was someone who saw Gai-dono running out of the Goddess throne...

Then...

Crap! I was found out?

Is this the time to be saying that?

I would've found out even without the witness.

If the mirror disappeared, nine out of ten times is of your doing.

Now now... Return it quickly.

That's right, the chief of Goddess bodyguards has personally come to get it back.

Next time, please come only when the Goddess is there.

"Then please don't scold me," tell the Goddess that.

We'll see...

That reminds me. Tomorrow at the Zeus-sama's shrine,

the nomination for the Six Saint Beasts will be held.

High rank angels, please have a safe trip.

He said that in a twisted way.

Probably he thought that all high rank angels want to become the Six Saint Beasts.

Yeah. In truth, there are those who are excited.

But we all have mixed feelings.

I want to believe that the Great Deity has a plan but...

I can only think that he's tormenting the angels.

I really don't know.

That's fine, for you.

Why so?

If it's something that'll even bother you, then there'll be real trouble.

Even though I don't like it... shall we go?

Yeah

itoshiki mono yo sei noru toki yo hikari to yami no densetsu wo tsugu tenshi yo

O beloved ones, o sacred time, o angels, who inherit the legend of light and darkness.

Upon your shining golden wings, bathed in the rays of the blazing sun,

A flash of blue lightning streaks across the sky,

and the soldiers' rest is over.

Uneasiness hidden behind a crimson veil: CRY CRY CRY.

I spread out my arms and embrace you to my chest.

I'll keep these feelings locked inside me,

until I can make our dream come true.

namida no hibi kujikesou ni naru

Days of tears almost crushed us.

The courage to carry through with our faith and ideals

hitokakerano ai yasashii nukumori

comes from just a shred of love, and gentle warmth.

tomadoi wa suteyou jounetsu no kanata e tobira wo hirake

Let's throw aside our hesitation and open a door to the depths of passion...

The candidates for the Six Saint Beasts have finally been revealed.

Those who want to be chosen; those who are chosen; and those who aren't chosen.

The little ripple caused by Zeus' words,

will become a large current,

and reveal the angels' true hearts.
