Original subtitles

When evil threatens the world,

the warriors of hope will always appear.

Garbed in Cloths of the constellations,

they fight by exploding the energy within them:

their Cosmo.

They are the warriors who

protect the love and peace of the world...

The Saints!

Saint Koga's journey to find Athena continues.

Athena arrives at the Palaestra.

However, it isn't Saori.

A stunned Koga is confronted by the headmaster, Ionia.

He reveals that he is a Gold Saint, working for Mars.

Koga is defeated by Ionia's overwhelming power,

and ends up in an underground prison.

There, he meets a young man.

Young men, let the Cosmo in your hearts burn!

What's going on?

Hey, what's going on?

It hurts to breathe...

And it's hard to move.

It's because of that dark Cosmo.

Yuna! Ryuho!

Soma!

Are you all right?!

Yeah.

But forget about me.

What the heck is going on?

Students of the Palaestra...

A new era has begun for the Sanctuary!

A new era for the Sanctuary?

Athena has named Mars-sama her Great Pope.

Mars?

Mars has revived?

The Great Pope will aid Athena,

carry out her wishes,

and command the Saints!

Does that mean that Mars will rule the Sanctuary?

We will now conduct a selection process to determine if you are worthy of being Saints

in this new era.

A selection process?

Where's Koga?

The Sanctuary in Danger! The Ninja Saint Arrives!

The Sanctuary in Danger!

The Ninja Saint Arrives!

Who are you?

How about you give your own name, before asking another theirs?

I'm Koga...

Pegasus Koga.

Pegasus?

Are you a student at the Palaestra, too?

I've never seen you before.

That's my line.

So you were put here before I arrived at the Palaestra?

I guess you have at least a few brain cells.

Why, you...

Fuji-Style Ninpou: Kawarimi no Jutsu.

You're a ninja?

Indeed.

I am the Fuji-Style ninja, Wolf Haruto.

A Ninja Saint?

I didn't know anyone like that was at the Palaestra.

I'm sure everyone up above thinks I dropped out.

What happened to you?

I tried to see if Athena was the real Athena...

Athena?

But she wasn't.

And?

Then the headmaster came...

And you got your butt kicked, and ended up in here.

In other words, you investigated things you shouldn't have, with no plan,

got caught like an idiot, and were defeated like a weakling.

You...

Well, I suppose you never had much hope against a Gold Saint.

You knew he was a Gold Saint?

Yeah.

I learned that Mars promised him the title of "Pope."

And that he betrayed the real Athena you mentioned. And then...

You were discovered and thrown down here.

The same as me!

I'm not like you.

More importantly, I felt an amazing light Cosmo,

and then a dark Cosmo.

What's going on up there?

What does "selection process" mean?

Mars-sama will rule the Sanctuary now.

All of you Saints must swear loyalty to him.

Anyone who doesn't will be killed!

You're the Deputy Headmaster, right?

You can serve as an example for the others.

Will you swear loyalty?

I cannot...

We will not bow to Mars—

Take him.

Yes, sir.

The Deputy Headmaster has shown you

what will happen if you refuse to swear loyalty.

Now, who's next?

I am.

Geki-sensei!

Now, swear loyalty to Mars-sama.

I refuse!

No one will obey you!

Everyone here lives to protect Athena.

Not this Mars.

Get out!

The dark Cosmo is slowing me down.

Now!

We'll fight, too!

Of course.

Yeah.

The Marsians have begun to select the Saints.

Athena's school came in handy.

Then let us begin, my new Athena.

The new house of Zodiac where Mars-sama will rule,

will be built here, yes?

Why do you look so sad, Athena?

I am not Athena...

At the Palaestra, she encountered a Saint

with a light Cosmo, Pegasus Koga.

Pegasus?

I've already sent him to the prison.

Damn, it's no use.

What's everyone doing?

If they disobey Mars,

their Cosmo will be absorbed, and they'll die.

What?

The same will happen to us.

The Palaestra was built to raise the next generation of Saints,

to prepare in case of Mars's revival.

However,

it has ended up ruled by those under Mars's influence.

Mars...

I'll ruin his ambitions!

But you cannot ignite your Cosmo in this cell.

Don't do anything stupid.

You'll just waste energy.

Out...

Hurry!

Line up there.

They're starting to move the prisoners.

If they take you,

they'll suck your Cosmo away,

killing you.

Our Cosmo?

Yes.

Mars plans to use the Saints' power for something.

It was to his advantage that

the students here enhanced each other's Cosmo.

Damn.

I can't die here...

I have to save Saori-san!

What's wrong?

What are you doing?!

He just fell over...

What?

We have to get them out of here.

Fine, I'll get the key!

Hey...

Be quiet.

Crap, he's dead.

Fuji-Style Ninpou: Kinton no Jutsu.

What?

Fuji-Style Ninpou: Katon no Jutsu.

Hey, let's go.

Ninjas are amazing...

Out of the way.

This is bad.

Yeah.

With all this dark Cosmo, we're at a disadvantage.

Damn it!

Soma...

Let's get out of here.

But our Palaestra...

I hate to say it, but this isn't the Palaestra anymore!

You're right.

I want to find Koga! Come with me.

Got it.

Hey, shouldn't we have brought them?

In theory, they're Saints, as well.

They'll find their own way.

Get against the wall.

Fuji-Style Ninpou: Doton no Jutsu.

They're late.

Why don't they hurry and bring the Saints?

They're gonna get yelled at again.

The captain has a short fuse.

What was that for?

We could've taken them.

We don't know how many more there are.

We can't fight them all.

Where's that girl?

No good.

The dark Cosmo is holding it closed.

What should we do?

Pegasus?

So he chooses to burn his Cosmo now while we're in the darkness.

What?

Dark Cosmo?

What strength...

What was that?

It came from the chapel.

We're so close...

No, I can do it.

Definitely!

Now, let us go, Athena-sama.

Pegasus Ryu Sei Ken!

I guess you have raw power, if nothing else.

No, that wasn't my strength alone.

This light Cosmo...

She helped me?

Help me...

What is this?!

It's like a prison of darkness.

That's exactly right.

You'll never escape.

You should just give up, and offer your Cosmo to Mars-sama!

Nice dodge.

I have no choice...

Wolf Cloth!

You're fighting me.

You won't escape.

Jumonji

Ganseki Kuzushi!

You have an Earth Element?

It is Earth, but...

Seiryu Teppo Mizu!

Kaen no Mai Midare Uchi!

Ninjutsu lets me use fire and water.

And when I wear my Cloth, those skills become more powerful.

You might say I'm a Ninja Saint.

How dare you hurt my brother!

You're fighting me.

Pegasus

Senkou Ken!

Pay attention.

He won?

How dare you hurt my brother?!

Time for me to finish up, as well.

Let my Cosmo roar!

Fuji-Style Secret Technique:

Houkou Tenro Kuzushi!

Wow...

Let's go.

Yeah.

Koga!

Everyone...

Thank goodness, you're okay!

Haruto...

Didn't you drop out of the Palaestra?

No, I was locked up this entire time.

Why?

Yuna... Your mask?

I took it off.

Of my own will.

The mask you wear now looks better.

You haven't changed at all.

We'll talk later.

For now, let's go.

You're still here?

I won't let you escape!

Geki-sensei!

Sensei!

Haruto, is that you?

He's been locked up the whole time.

I see.

You guys, leave...

Go!

Without the righteous, the world will be destroyed.

Don't forget what you've learned here.

Work together, and open the path to the future!

Work together...

Geki-sensei...

Get going, young Saints!

Sensei!

What are you doing, Koga?

How do we get past this dark Cosmo?

The way that Geki-sensei told us,

we work together.

Concentrate all our Cosmo on a single point!

All our Cosmo...

We're opening the path, with our own power!

With our own power...

That's right.

Go!

I can't see a thing.

Which way should we go?

Leave it to me!

A path of light?

The Pegasus of light?

Our Palaestra...

No...

Sensei...

We all met there...

We strengthened each other's Cosmo.

I'm going.

Koga!

No matter what we lose,

we have to continue forward!

The Sanctuary!

Look...

That's the direction of the Sanctuary.

Hey, Athena's carriage...

I think she returned to the Sanctuary.

I'm going to the Sanctuary!

To see Athena?

No, the Athena that came to the Palaestra wasn't Saori-san.

But...

I want to save her!
