Original subtitles

I'm starting to get annoyed.

Why do you persist with your ugly and pointless struggling?

The outcome of this battle is already clear.

So what difference does it make how we get there?

How we get there is precisely what matters.

A man can beg for his life, or die with sword in hand.

We have that choice because we're human.

The way you're dressed all in black makes you look like a dark knight.

Fine. If it's pain you wish for,

I will grant you a lengthy torment beyond your wildest dreams.

You'll beg me to put you out of your misery.

That won't be enough

to make up for my stupidity.

The High-Norkian style stance.

Which means she'll try for a killing blow.

That was the one-handed four-hit sword skill, Vertical Square, correct?

Sword skill? Did she really just say that?

Did she pull that from Eugeo's memories?

In that case,

if I unleash a skill with more than four hits that I never showed Eugeo...

That was the six-hit rapier skill Crucifixion.

Impossible.

Single-hit katana skill Zekkuu.

There's nothing I don't know about the system driving this world.

No way...

This isn't like you.

Eugeo.

Kirito.

It wasn't just the Integrity Knights who lost their memories.

You and I have both forgotten something important.

You, me and Alice were born in Rulid Village and grew up together.

Yeah, it's all coming back to me, too.

I was there with you when Alice was taken away by that knight.

I couldn't do anything that day.

You were just a kid, but you mustered up the courage to try and stand up to that Integrity Knight.

Eugeo.

So let me be the one to push you forward this time.

This time, let's save Alice together.

Now, Kirito...

Kirito.

I know you can stand up and fight once again.

You can stand as many times as it takes.

Now stand, Kirito.

My best friend.

My...

hero.

Yeah, I'll stand. For your sake, as many times as it takes.

Why?

Why do you resist fate like a fool?

It's the only reason.

Resisting is the only reason I'm here right now!

This world is mine!

I will not tolerate such behavior from an uninvited intruder!

On your knees!

Lower your head!

Submit to me!

Wrong.

You're just a usurper.

Someone who doesn't love this world or the people who live in it

has no right to be its ruler!

To love is to control.

I love everything.

I rule everything!

Such insolence.

Such insolence!

Curse you!

I'm not done...

I'm not done yet!

Who could have imagined

that neither of your swords were metal...

How astonishing. Truly...

An astonishing outcome.

I've suffered too many injuries to heal, even if I gather the remaining resources here.

Now that it's come to this, I have no choice.

Wh-What are you...

This is earlier than planned, but...

I'm going to make my exit ahead of schedule.

Goodbye, boy.

Until we meet again.

This time...

...in your world.

Wait!

Your Eminence!

Take me with you!

Let go! Let go of me! You ill-bred swine!

At last... at last I can be one with Your Eminence!

Not like this... Not with a revolting clown like you!

Oh, Your Eminence!

My Administrator-sama!

A world...

of my own...

Is it over now?

Eugeo.

Stop! Stop already!

Why won't it work? Eugeo!

Come back! Eugeo!

Stay cool... Kirito.

Eugeo! Hold on.

I'll heal you now, okay?

It's fine. It's fine this way, Kirito.

What are you talking about? How is it fine?

If things didn't turn out this way,

you and I would've had to fight on behalf of our own Alice.

Me to get Alice's memories back, and you...

to preserve Integrity Knight Alice's soul.

Then fight! After I've healed all your wounds, fight me!

You're stronger than I am now! So...

On behalf of the Alice you love, fight me!

My sword is broken now.

Not to mention...

My weakness made me turn my sword against you.

I have to atone

for that sin.

What sin? You didn't commit any sin!

You fought bravely the entire way!

Without you, we never could've defeated Administrator!

So there's no need to blame yourself, Eugeo!

You think so?

I hope that's true.

Kirito, I've always been envious of you.

You were stronger than anyone,

and loved by everyone.

Who knows, maybe even Alice... loves you...

But I finally understand. Love isn't something to be sought.

It's something to give.

Alice taught me that.

Keep your hands busy, Kirito.

Look, I'm almost done with mine.

How far along are you?

Further than you, that's for sure!

Just this much left.

Then let's keep going a little longer and finish!

Hey, let's head back now. He's gonna find out if we don't.

We still have time. A little longer... just a little bit, okay?

Fine, fine.

Just a little longer, then.

Okay!

Done!

I'm done!

So this is where you've been.

What are you doing?

Eu-Eugeo.

It's three days early, but Eugeo...

Happy Birthday!

This is for me?

It's not like the real one your big brother has,

but this one's better than any wooden sword you'll find in the shop!

It's amazing.

I'll treasure it forever!

Thanks, you two!

I'm so happy.

I've never gotten a birthday present that made me this happy.

H-Hey, don't cry!

I'm not!

Wai—

The three of us really did experience all those things together.

Our paths are about to separate, but our memories will live on forever.

They'll go on living inside you.

So, come on...

So, come on...

Don't cry, Kirito.

Yeah, my memories are right here.

They'll be right here forever.

That's right. So you and I...

...will be best friends forever.

Where are you, Kirito? I can't see you.

I'm here. I'm right here.

Yeah. I see it...

Sparkling in the darkness, just like the stars.

The stars in the sky I looked up at every night from the foot of the Gigas Cedar.

They look just like your sword when it shines.

That's it.

Your black sword

should be named the Night-Sky Blade.

Yeah, that's a great name.

Thanks, Eugeo.

This world, so full of sorrow...

Envelop it as gently as the night sky.

This is how it should be, right?

Yes. Let's leave the rest to those two.

I'm sure they'll guide the world in the right direction.

You're right. Okay, then let's go.

Okay!

Kikuoka.

Can you hear me, Kikuoka?

Kikuoka!

Lt. Colonel Kikuoka, the door has been breached. We won't last much longer.

We're abandoning Maincon and closing the pressure-resistant bulkhead.

Sorry, hold out for two more minutes. We can't let them seize this place now.

What's going on?

Higa-kun, isn't the lockdown done yet?

Another eighty... no, seventy seconds!

Kiku-san! We're getting a call from inside!

It's...

It's him! It's Kirigaya-kun!

Wh-What?

Kirito-kun, is that you?

Are you there, Kirito-kun?

I'm here, all right.

Listen here, Kikuoka! Do you... Do you know what you've done?

You can scold me all you want later!

But right now, you need to listen to me!

What?

Hey! What's going on out there?

Sorry, there's no time.

Listen, Kirito-kun.

You have to look for a girl named Alice. Then take her—

I don't have to look for her. She's right here!

What did you say?

Son of a gun! It's a miracle!

All right. As soon as this transmission ends, I'm going to return the FLA rate to 1,000.

So take Alice and head to the World's End Altar!

What do you mean, head to—

Listen! Once you exit the Eastern Gate, the Altar's due south—

Oh no!

They're about to infiltrate the electrical room!

What?

You only need to sever the power line.

Make sure you don't harm the Lightcube Cluster control lines.

Leave it to me, Bro. I wouldn't mess up like that.

This is bad, Kiku-san!

If they sever the main power line, it'll cause a surge!

The Lightcube Cluster is protected, but...

The surge will hit Kirigaya's STL in Subcon!

His Fluctlight will get fried!

I'll handle the lockdown procedure!

Higa-kun, you take Dr. Kojiro and Asuna-kun and evacuate to the Upper Shaft.

Keep Kirito-kun safe.

Asuna?

Asuna's there? At Rath? But why?

It's no good, they're cutting the power! The screw propellers are going to stop!

Kirito-kun. Kirito-kun!

Asuna...
