Original subtitles

"Hiya!"

Script...

"You're late!"

A means by which we communicate

"We're at the tree by the

East Exit. Where are you?"

our thoughts, feelings, and information to others.

"Sorry, gimme a little longer!"

"You're the only one who's not here, Miki."

Even among the scripts of the world, there is one that is special.

And that is...

Kanji.

Verbalize.

Unlike writing systems such as hiragana and the alphabet,

kanji conveys meaning in and of itself.

That is, in sound and meaning.

By utilizing these two functions,

kanji possesses an enormous hidden power.

All things or images

"People"

are replaced in our minds with the words that represent them.

"Buildings"

"Trees"

If the word for a thing were to be destroyed,

that concept itself would disappear from the world.

And today's civilization...

...would die out in an instant.

"Paper"

"Savior"

At one time, man was one with the world of truth.

But the written word brought forth prosperity and suffering.

Oh, "yamai-dare," darlin' darlin,' you're a divine crown

"Aquarion Logos"

The kanji for "love" and "grief " look very similar

When I realized that, dawn suddenly broke

The air was filled with so much silence that "blue" "fought"

When suddenly you slid in to the right of me

Rippling with a clatter

and tangled in red thread

and a 39-degree fever of passion

Oh, "yamai-dare," darlin' darlin,' you're a divine crown

A crown worn on high with pride

Oh, "yamai-dare," darlin' darlin,' "soothe" my hidden "heart below"

Its form is too much to handle right now

God's wisdom, the "h" in "her"

With a tearful, feverish gaze

let's stand side by side and look at tomorrow's moon

(Let's stand side by side and look at tomorrow's moon)

The things you can do are so striking

"Shout! Sousei Gattai"

Manager, do something!

Hurry and call Kokone!

"Verbalism Club Reading Theater

The Three Little Pigs in Swan Lake"

Shirobaco is just a regular café without the Verbalism Club reading corner.

Hey, is Hayato still not here yet?

"Please refrain from

taking pictures of the staff."

Oh, jeez...

Where is everyone?

We should've started ages ago!

"It's way past time for curtain."

The rumors were right. You're very handsome, Hayato Kujyo.

Oh, no, I'm not.

I can see why you're so popular with the ladies.

You should see the fan letters he gets every month.

They don't write to me, the Diet member...

...but my secretary.

I'm jealous of him.

Now, now... Let's devote ourselves to our own work.

Seriously, I think it's fate that we met here.

You know, like destiny in Asagaya!

That's so lame.

Give me a break! Not in Asagaya!

What's wrong with Asagaya?

Shibuya and Shinjuku are so ordinary.

It's so cliché.

But meeting in Asagaya now...

That's unexpected.

It's surprising, even to yourself.

Aren't you going to answer your cell?

Nah, just let it ring.

It's probably about the world coming to an end or something like that.

Who cares about that? There's no time like the present.

It's now, right?

"Sorry, please wait just a while longer."

Miss, don't you have something to do?

Don't worry about me.

O-Oh, no, it's all right.

These bags are too heavy for you.

But...

G-Granny, you're going to the b-bus...

"You're on your way to the bus station, right?

Don't worry. Sakurako won't mind if I'm late."

You're on your way to the bus station, right?

Don't worry. Sakurako won't mind if I'm late.

Really? Thank you!

S-Someone!

Is she your grandmother?

Oh...

Th-Thank you.

I heard your voice.

If it's a cry for help, I'll always extend a hand.

That's because I'm...

...the savior.

He seemed like a nice young man, but...

Maybe he's had a little too much sun.

Rejoice.

I shall now set you free.

Maki!

"Do you want anything?"

"Buy me Volume 5 of Lacross Plus."

--Hey, hey! --What's wrong?

Injected with the Nesta Virus, the afflicted kanji

"The German League is

definitely the best part."

will come alive and turn bestial.

"Didn't I lend you Part 2 of that?"

"In Kenji Miyazawa's hometown

of Hanamaki, Japanese poets are..."

And what will happen next...

Hey, what is that?

I'm sorry, but I must go. Please excuse me.

Hey, Kujyo!

...is the manifestation of that kanji's meaning

as it becomes the beast itself.

H-Help!

The meaning of the kanji, its concept, will run amuck.

"Twist"

Unbelievable, right?

A soft serve without twists! That's hilarious!

What's all that noise?

--Run! --Watch out!

Hey, watch out! You wanna kill us?!

Are you okay?!

Hayato?

Tsutomu? What're you...?

Hey, that's Kokone's...!

--Kokone? --Kokone of Shirobaco!

Must've happened then.

It's handmade. I should return it.

I bought toys for my grandchild, but they were heavier than expected.

I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't passed by.

Thank you so much.

N-No...

"Twist"

Look out!

A twister!

This is...!

Don't move. I'll cut it off for you.

It's begun.

This is the M.J.B.K.?

What a clumsy piece of work.

I told you before, no eating in the cockpit.

Oops... Sorry, Maia.

It's here at last.

The time to fulfill my mission.

H-Help...

Hey, you!

Y-You...

Perfect timing.

I-I'm sorry, I... have to go!

Wait!

Let go! If I don't go...

...the world will...!

I'm sorry I'm late!

You sure are, Kokone!

"We're temporarily closed today! Sorry."

We're closed.

"Closed Today Due to Emergency"

The café will be closed temporarily as of right now!

Sorry about that.

--What are you doing? --Huh? Closed temporarily?

Hayato!

Can I help you?

Manager!

Not "Manager."

Starting this minute, address me as "Commander."

Deava System, activate!

All systems go.

Vector machines stand by for take-off.

Formation: Delta.

Kujyo and Domon, prepare for take-off.

--Roger. --Got it.

You're sending us out for real?

You do know I've never been on a vector machine before?

You'll be fine. You've honed your Verbalism Ability just for this day.

It's not technique or intellect that moves vectors.

It's Verbalism Ability.

Use your voice to reach your heart.

And the vector is certain to respond.

Vector exit lane link system operational.

Connection complete.

Verbalize.

"Genesis"

Oh, well. What will be will be.

Verbalism!

The valve in the underground water storage is now open.

Water catchment tanks will be filling up,

so the pathways around the station entrance will be sealed.

Opening the mirage field.

Image is locked in place.

Lift-off!

Maki!

That's him.

Tsutomu... Hayato...

Get it right.

So that thing's the cause of this panic.

--Who are you?! --Wh-Why...?

How did you get in? Where's Kento?!

Wait!

He's...!

Kikogami, you know him?

I'll do it.

That's the threat to this world, right?

Then I'll destroy it.

Put me in that machine.

Who are you to order--?

I will save the world with this hand...

...because I am the savior.

Whoa... What a cornball!

Sorry, I don't have time to play along with your nonsense.

Take him away!

Come with us!

It's not working at all!

Maki!

You have Verbalism Ability!

That's supposedly the only power that can bring down the M.J.B.K.!

Tsutomu, time to Gattai!

I was hoping my first time would be with Kokone.

But what the hell? It's better than dying!

Let's do it!

What's happening?!

All we have to do is guard this monster, right?

Our victory conditions are way too easy.

Don't get careless, Subete.

I know, Maia.

This is all for Master Sougon's sublime ideal.

We will eliminate all who interfere.

Yup! You're absolutely right, Maia.

This is the enemy that Commander was talking about?

I had anticipated at least some resistance.

You are the woman who stole my vector machines...

...Sakurako Soda.

You should make haste before your precious words disappear.

Send me, too!

Go.

Start.

That's... my vector!

Aw, crap!

Another vector?!

Kikogami?!

You are a threat to the world.

What?! How did that boy...?!

How is he making it move?

He has Verbalism Ability too.

But how can he control the vector without a suit or training?

Vector One has gone off the grid.

Retrieve Kudo and Domon's crafts immediately!

Oh, right!

It's all over.

I'll be able to fulfill my mission.

My mission.

My reason for living.

What will we do? We don't have any more operational machines!

Maki!

The Shuto Expressway and other major highways have been closed.

No fatalities have been reported yet...

Along with strange cumulonimbus cloud formations in the city,

three giant super-typhoons were seen near Akamichi...

Look!

No, it will not end.

I decided to be...

...the one to save the world from all threats.

Its savior.

And I will save the world!

With this hand.

What is that?

The voice infused with spirit

bestows power and meaning upon words.

Is this the true power of Verbalism?

Come.

Come!

What is this...?!

Maia!

The controls aren't working! Why?!

Sousei Gattai!

My voice!

Shout!

--Aquarion! --Aquarion!

I've been... waiting for this moment.

What is this?

It's totally different from all the other times.

I've never felt like this before.

This is wonderful!

--Kou! --Kou!

What the hell is this... Maia?!

I can feel it.

You are Akira Kaibuki.

And you're Maia Tsukigane.

"Maia Tsukigane" "Akira Kaibuki"

I know what I must do.

Just who are you?!

Maki!

"Infinite"

Maki!

"Mugen Punch"

Just who are those two...?

Maki!

Let's go.

"Mugen Punch"

--Mugen Punch! --Mugen Punch!

Ma--?!

--Go! --Go!

What are you, anyway?!

I'm just a savior.

Je-Je t'aime communication

Oh, you aren't making a bit of eye contact with me while you talk

Are you texting some far-off neighboring world or something?

Because this isn't communication at all

You'd at least understand that much

even if the times suddenly changed, right?

Give me je t'aime communication sometimes

Look at me, answer me, and tell me

I mean, this is practically like talking to a computer

A-Adieu application

Even if it means staying lonely in my heart, if it'll connect us

then, please, at least show your smile to me alone

Th-This is the preview corner.

Hey, Akira Kaibuki! You appeared out of nowhere, but...

...just who are you?

There is a threat looming over the world...

--Answer me! --Hey, you two...

You show up uninvited and do a Gattai?!

Don't you dare interfere with Master Sougon!

It's because I am the savior...!

--Listen to me! --Oh, time's run out! The next episode is...

"Episode 2: Shine! Light of Thought"

"Shine! Light of Thought."

Who are you to talk?!
