00:05.270 --> 00:07.890
This is for me?

00:07.890 --> 00:11.340
Yes. Atla and I made it this morning.

00:18.010 --> 00:20.360
I hope you like it.

00:25.770 --> 00:27.110
This is...

00:27.950 --> 00:30.810
I'm told it's like my mom used to make.

00:33.720 --> 00:35.650
Was it too salty?

00:36.560 --> 00:38.280
No... no.

00:39.780 --> 00:41.080
It's so good...

00:41.830 --> 00:42.870
So good...

00:44.290 --> 00:45.910
It's wonderful!

00:46.650 --> 00:52.300
Fohl-san and Atla-san were, it turns out, 
the children of Trash's little sister, Lucia.

00:52.820 --> 00:55.590
Should we tell the two of them?

00:57.110 --> 01:01.750
Trash is happy enough that he was able 
to build a relationship with him.

01:01.750 --> 01:03.870
How was Siltvelt?

01:03.870 --> 01:06.590
I'm told there was some trouble.

01:07.010 --> 01:10.440
It happened exactly like you said it would.

01:10.440 --> 01:12.720
But thanks to you,

01:12.720 --> 01:17.900
the Siltvelt forces are going to be 
helping in the war against the Phoenix.

01:18.200 --> 01:20.510
You work fast, as always.

01:20.510 --> 01:24.490
Preparing for the battle with the Phoenix 
takes precedence over everything else right now.

01:24.890 --> 01:27.200
So, what's next for you, Iwatani-sama?

01:27.570 --> 01:32.760
I'm going to keep getting ready for the Phoenix,
but I need to finish things with Q'ten Lo.

01:33.140 --> 01:35.120
I can't focus on what's in front of us

01:35.120 --> 01:37.300
while I'm worried they might 
be lurking in the shadows.

01:37.810 --> 01:40.900
Understood. Raphtalia-san.

01:40.900 --> 01:41.970
Yes?

01:41.970 --> 01:47.810
The next time we meet, I might be 
welcoming you as a royal guest.

01:49.280 --> 01:51.890
I'm sorry... I know this 
is an important time.

01:52.150 --> 01:54.480
It's not your fault.

01:54.480 --> 01:57.540
I'm just doing my job as a lord.

01:58.410 --> 01:59.860
Naofumi-sama!

02:00.430 --> 02:02.710
How'd he like your home cooking?

02:02.710 --> 02:04.570
See for yourself.

02:04.570 --> 02:06.310
He looked like he loved it.

02:07.060 --> 02:09.780
If you're done with things, 
then let's head home.

02:09.780 --> 02:11.870
We leave as soon as we're ready.

02:12.170 --> 02:13.200
Yeah!

02:22.140 --> 02:26.100
<b>The Rising of the Shield Hero</b>

03:45.720 --> 03:50.060
<b>Episode 6: Leaving Port</b>

03:48.480 --> 03:50.830
Count! You're back!

03:52.150 --> 03:53.220
What's up?

03:53.220 --> 03:56.100
I came to choose who's 
going to Q'ten Lo with me.

03:56.100 --> 03:57.160
Will you be taking these with you?

03:57.160 --> 04:00.690
Thanks to everyone in the village, 
they're really strong now!

04:01.550 --> 04:04.140
I'd like to have as much 
fighting power as I can,

04:04.140 --> 04:07.040
but we need to be able to 
defend the village, too.

04:07.040 --> 04:10.720
It'd be good to have Sadeena-neesan along.

04:10.720 --> 04:11.600
Yeah.

04:11.600 --> 04:13.600
She knows the area.

04:13.600 --> 04:14.450
And...

04:14.820 --> 04:17.240
Atla-san and Fohl-kun, I suppose?

04:17.590 --> 04:20.270
They helped a lot in Siltvelt.

04:20.880 --> 04:22.800
Where are Itsuki and Ren, by the way?

04:23.100 --> 04:25.760
Training. They'll be back tonight.

04:25.760 --> 04:30.580
Even if the curse still affects them,
they're both Cardinal Heroes.

04:30.580 --> 04:32.290
I'd like one of them to come.

04:32.290 --> 04:35.320
If you're going to Q'ten Lo,
you should take him.

04:35.570 --> 04:36.740
Take Gaelion?

04:36.740 --> 04:40.420
Q'ten Lo is protected by the Water Dragon.

04:40.420 --> 04:45.250
As a fellow dragon,
Gaelion-chan should be able to sense him.

04:46.540 --> 04:48.530
Okay, let's take him, then.

04:48.530 --> 04:51.150
No fair! I want to go, too!

04:51.150 --> 04:53.170
I can fight, too!

04:54.110 --> 04:57.000
Do you remember what happened 
when the village was attacked?

04:57.000 --> 04:57.700
Yeah.

04:57.700 --> 05:00.150
We don't know when they'll come back.

05:00.150 --> 05:03.230
Keeping everyone here 
safe is important, too.

05:03.690 --> 05:04.720
Can you help with that?

05:05.150 --> 05:05.870
Yeah.

05:06.330 --> 05:07.980
Okay, then...

05:07.980 --> 05:10.150
Hey, you in there!

05:11.880 --> 05:12.890
Hey!

05:12.890 --> 05:14.450
What is it?

05:14.450 --> 05:16.930
Can you take me to Q'ten Lo, too?

05:17.870 --> 05:21.420
I looked at the weapons 
those guys were using...

05:21.860 --> 05:25.400
...and I think it was my 
master who made them.

05:25.400 --> 05:26.520
You're sure?

05:26.520 --> 05:28.610
That's how it seems to me.

05:28.610 --> 05:32.990
They've been missing for ages,
and this might be my chance to find them!

05:33.360 --> 05:34.270
Please!

05:35.650 --> 05:38.790
It'll be dangerous. Is that okay?

05:38.790 --> 05:40.980
I was an adventurer, you know.

05:40.980 --> 05:43.330
My level is 87, I think.

05:43.330 --> 05:44.640
That's surprisingly high!

05:44.640 --> 05:47.850
I'll keep your weapons clean 
and ready on the way!

05:47.850 --> 05:49.710
Fine, you can come!

05:49.710 --> 05:51.230
I owe you one!

05:52.540 --> 05:55.770
That's why he was so good with a sword.

05:55.770 --> 05:58.850
He was the first person 
to train you, after all.

05:58.850 --> 06:02.190
We can talk about the rest 
when Itsuki and Ren get back.

06:02.190 --> 06:04.690
I'd like to leave tomorrow!

06:04.090 --> 06:05.490
Nii-chan!

06:05.490 --> 06:07.620
Help me!

06:08.790 --> 06:10.890
Why are you dressed like that?

06:10.890 --> 06:13.660
Those two made me wear this!

06:13.660 --> 06:15.360
A crossdresser, huh?

06:15.770 --> 06:17.830
No, that's not quite right.

06:17.830 --> 06:20.200
Keel's actually a girl.

06:21.650 --> 06:25.120
I found out when we were taking measurements 
for her to work at the shop.

06:25.120 --> 06:28.210
I always thought I was a guy!

06:28.210 --> 06:29.210
So did I!

06:29.470 --> 06:31.700
But why that outfit?

06:31.700 --> 06:34.170
She was creatively inspired, she says.

06:34.170 --> 06:36.670
Everybody loved it!

06:36.670 --> 06:38.220
Well, I don't like it!

06:38.220 --> 06:39.090
No...

06:39.090 --> 06:40.310
Naofumi-sama?

06:40.310 --> 06:43.950
Keel, from now on, when you 
go trading, you wear that.

06:44.660 --> 06:47.470
More attention means more sales.

06:47.470 --> 06:48.870
Your talent...

06:48.870 --> 06:49.890
must be put to work!

06:49.890 --> 06:52.630
But I want to be a strong man!

06:52.630 --> 06:55.570
Whether you're a man or a woman, 
it's important to be useful.

06:55.570 --> 06:56.710
Got it?

06:57.300 --> 06:59.410
If you say so...

06:59.910 --> 07:03.120
Naofumi-sama, you've got 
money symbols in your eyes.

07:03.120 --> 07:05.940
He never changes.

07:08.610 --> 07:10.290
Naofumi!

07:10.840 --> 07:12.310
You're back, huh?

07:12.310 --> 07:15.320
I heard you ran into trouble in Siltvelt.

07:15.320 --> 07:16.590
Yeah, in more ways than one.

07:16.900 --> 07:19.730
Did anything happen in the 
village while I was gone?

07:19.730 --> 07:22.430
No assassin attacks,

07:22.430 --> 07:25.070
but we found explosion 
craters near the village.

07:25.640 --> 07:28.290
They might've tried to set a trap.

07:28.290 --> 07:31.610
Or gotten into a fight with someone...

07:32.200 --> 07:34.390
But who?

07:43.710 --> 07:45.910
Found you, villains!

07:45.910 --> 07:46.750
Who's there?

07:47.460 --> 07:48.650
Jump!

07:48.650 --> 07:50.340
It's me!

07:56.830 --> 07:59.500
My spear didn't seem to 
work as well as it should.

07:59.500 --> 08:00.340
Very well!

08:01.350 --> 08:03.690
As source of thy power, I order thee!

08:03.950 --> 08:08.360
Decipher the laws of nature, 
and burn my foes to ash!

08:09.430 --> 08:13.110
Drifa Firestorm!

08:16.720 --> 08:19.070
Filth must be cleansed by fire!

08:20.400 --> 08:22.500
Now, on to the next one!

08:24.540 --> 08:26.670
I'm glad nothing happened.

08:26.670 --> 08:29.130
I guess I'll look into it when I have time.

08:29.540 --> 08:30.960
Hey, Naofumi.

08:30.960 --> 08:32.020
What?

08:32.020 --> 08:36.640
I know you're busy, but don't forget 
you need to do what Fitoria-san asked.

08:37.090 --> 08:39.380
Once we're done with things in Q'ten Lo.

08:39.380 --> 08:42.800
She's already given you 
the reward in advance...

08:42.800 --> 08:43.760
Yeah.

08:43.760 --> 08:45.200
Mel-chan!

08:45.200 --> 08:46.810
I'm coming! Just wait!

08:46.810 --> 08:49.470
Let's play!

08:48.300 --> 08:50.440
I'm still talking.

08:50.440 --> 08:52.240
What Fitoria wants, huh?

08:52.240 --> 08:55.720
She said before that it was for the 
Four Heroes to get closer, but...

08:55.720 --> 08:56.780
Ren-san.

08:56.780 --> 08:59.250
Can you look at the shopping list?

09:00.140 --> 09:02.200
Let's add some dried jerky.

09:02.200 --> 09:03.700
We're running low.

09:03.700 --> 09:05.650
Thank you for always helping!

09:06.180 --> 09:08.060
You're helping out, huh?

09:08.060 --> 09:10.670
I want to do everything I can.

09:11.160 --> 09:13.260
I'm a part of this village, after all.

09:13.570 --> 09:17.600
Naofumi, should we go to Q'ten Lo, too?

09:17.600 --> 09:18.930
Hmm...

09:19.410 --> 09:22.830
I don't know if the Cardinal 
Weapons will work on them.

09:23.730 --> 09:25.750
But we're taking a ship to get there.

09:25.750 --> 09:30.260
If we have to fight a battle at sea, 
long-range weapons will help, I'm sure.

09:30.260 --> 09:33.280
Itsuki, Rishia, will you come?

09:33.280 --> 09:34.470
All right.

09:35.250 --> 09:37.040
I-I'll do my best.

09:37.040 --> 09:40.760
Ren, I want you to take command 
if the village is attacked.

09:40.760 --> 09:43.590
Can you protect the village with Eclair?

09:43.590 --> 09:44.710
I see.

09:44.710 --> 09:48.130
It looks like they trust you, after all.

09:48.500 --> 09:50.960
For now, focus on breaking the curse.

09:50.960 --> 09:53.270
When we need you,
I'll call you with the Portal.

09:53.270 --> 09:54.370
Got it.

09:58.740 --> 10:00.760
Um, Naofumi-sama.

10:02.290 --> 10:05.350
Just who is the Emperor?

10:06.070 --> 10:10.060
That they'd be willing to send assassins 
to protect their position...

10:10.390 --> 10:15.530
Isn't it just part of being human to try 
and cling to your position and power?

10:15.530 --> 10:18.100
I have no interest in those things, though.

10:18.790 --> 10:22.380
Tell that to the people of Q'ten Lo.

10:22.950 --> 10:23.820
Okay.

10:24.480 --> 10:28.540
I'm not sure they'll understand, though.

10:41.270 --> 10:43.930
Is everything I asked for ready?

10:43.930 --> 10:44.760
Yes!

10:45.680 --> 10:47.670
It's almost all aboard.

10:47.670 --> 10:50.010
The last 10 percent is being loaded now.

10:51.670 --> 10:53.950
All this is just 10%?

10:54.400 --> 10:57.910
We can't have anything 
happening to the Hero.

10:57.910 --> 11:01.000
So we added a little extra.

11:01.620 --> 11:05.050
Just like I heard, you're really 
doing everything you can for him!

11:06.040 --> 11:09.880
They don't seem happy to see me, though.

11:10.810 --> 11:13.010
So it seems.

11:16.920 --> 11:18.880
Okay, let's board.

11:19.470 --> 11:21.660
We leave port once the last 
of the cargo's aboard!

11:22.780 --> 11:25.590
I have something to report.

11:25.590 --> 11:31.520
The false emperor has left 
port for our nation.

11:31.520 --> 11:33.340
Worry not.

11:33.800 --> 11:38.860
Your enemies will never arrive in our lands.

11:38.860 --> 11:42.250
Leave it all to me.

11:42.250 --> 11:48.060
So that all people may 
know of your kind heart.

11:58.580 --> 12:00.590
It's like we're flying!

12:00.590 --> 12:03.180
Don't pose like that! It's bad luck!

12:09.770 --> 12:11.710
What a strange light!

12:11.710 --> 12:14.870
You can't reach Q'ten Lo without it.

12:14.870 --> 12:15.730
Look.

12:18.700 --> 12:20.310
Whirlpools?

12:20.310 --> 12:24.480
If you don't follow the light,
the whirlpools will block your path.

12:25.390 --> 12:27.710
Whirlpool to our front!

12:28.080 --> 12:29.810
Hard to starboard!

12:29.810 --> 12:31.700
Hard to starboard!

12:41.330 --> 12:45.070
Your and Raphtalia's parents 
made it through these seas?

12:45.070 --> 12:46.130
Yup.

12:47.220 --> 12:50.350
Mother and Father went through these seas...

12:52.820 --> 12:55.100
These whirlpools are a hassle.

12:55.100 --> 12:56.160
Yeah.

12:56.550 --> 13:00.110
Why do you think your master's in Q'ten Lo?

13:00.110 --> 13:01.270
I couldn't say.

13:01.570 --> 13:06.880
They'd go all over, chasing skirts 
and running from debt collectors.

13:07.340 --> 13:09.110
So they're a loser?

13:09.110 --> 13:12.820
They have a lot of problems, 
but top-notch skills.

13:12.820 --> 13:17.160
I decided to study under them after falling in 
love with one of their weapons at first sight.

13:17.160 --> 13:18.640
They're that good?

13:18.640 --> 13:22.870
If I can meet them again,
I think I can get even better.

13:23.220 --> 13:27.260
If they're that good,
should I hire them instead of you?

13:27.260 --> 13:29.570
Come on now, don't be like that!

13:34.360 --> 13:35.880
Anything unusual nearby?

13:36.350 --> 13:40.810
I can sense a dragon in the far distance.

13:40.810 --> 13:42.900
That "Water Dragon", huh?

13:42.900 --> 13:43.910
Yes.

13:43.910 --> 13:48.120
I tried to get closer,
but was blocked by a barrier.

13:48.120 --> 13:50.050
The Water Dragon's barrier.

13:50.600 --> 13:53.050
We're almost to Q'ten Lo's
territorial waters.

13:54.830 --> 13:56.250
The fog...

13:56.250 --> 13:58.860
I hope we can get there 
without anything happening.

13:59.870 --> 14:02.230
These guys were willing to come 
all the way to our village.

14:02.230 --> 14:04.590
They won't let us land without a fight.

14:05.000 --> 14:06.840
Stay sharp, everyone!

14:19.220 --> 14:22.570
Something approaching 
from our rear starboard!

14:24.080 --> 14:25.500
Another ship!

14:25.500 --> 14:27.440
It's about to collide with us!

14:36.790 --> 14:38.230
Wind Arrow!

14:42.430 --> 14:43.540
Naofumi-sama!

14:43.540 --> 14:44.610
Let's go!

14:45.460 --> 14:46.880
What's going on?

15:01.480 --> 15:04.030
Death to the false Emperor!

15:04.030 --> 15:06.150
Tornado Throw!

15:06.150 --> 15:07.650
Meteor Shot!

15:08.960 --> 15:11.790
Death to the false Emperor!

15:11.290 --> 15:12.520
Leave this to me.

15:12.870 --> 15:15.230
As source of thy power, I order thee.

15:15.230 --> 15:20.640
Decipher the laws of nature,
and let the lightning pierce my foes!

15:20.640 --> 15:23.080
All Drifa Chain Lightning!

15:27.950 --> 15:29.460
That's too risky!

15:29.460 --> 15:31.020
Zweit Aura!

15:32.520 --> 15:34.050
Thanks, Naofumi-chan!

15:35.930 --> 15:38.690
I'd like to take them alive 
and question them...

15:43.010 --> 15:44.450
Don't let them self-destruct!

15:44.450 --> 15:46.050
We'll take them out first!

15:46.050 --> 15:46.600
Okay!

15:46.600 --> 15:47.350
Roger!

15:47.350 --> 15:48.970
Got it!

15:49.950 --> 15:53.200
Brother... no time to be seasick.

15:53.200 --> 15:54.340
I know!

15:55.310 --> 15:57.430
Stardust Blade!

15:59.740 --> 16:00.950
I knew it.

16:00.950 --> 16:02.900
Hero attacks don't work, huh?

16:03.870 --> 16:06.220
Die, False Emperor!

16:06.220 --> 16:07.910
Air Strike Shield!

16:28.560 --> 16:30.600
Wait!

16:30.600 --> 16:31.400
Don't go after them!

16:31.400 --> 16:32.530
You're at a disadvantage underwater!

16:33.320 --> 16:35.240
Let's push them back, Gaelion-chan!

16:35.580 --> 16:36.760
Lightning Strike Harpoon!

16:40.330 --> 16:41.380
Okay, almost done!

16:41.380 --> 16:43.220
Glory to the Emperor!

16:43.220 --> 16:43.960
Oh, no!

16:49.500 --> 16:50.570
I won't let you!

16:50.570 --> 16:52.750
Shield Prison!

17:01.810 --> 17:03.870
Thanks. You saved our lives.

17:03.870 --> 17:04.770
Sure thing.

17:04.770 --> 17:07.220
No enemies in sight!

17:07.850 --> 17:10.440
Looks like we're okay, for now.

17:10.710 --> 17:13.870
As long as we, 
Naofumi-sama's servants, are around,

17:13.870 --> 17:16.150
they'll never succeed!

17:16.920 --> 17:19.030
This one too, huh?

17:19.030 --> 17:21.460
I can't believe they'd attack us 
with all these whirlpools around.

17:21.460 --> 17:24.700
That's how bad they want us not to come.

17:25.140 --> 17:28.010
I hope we can make it to Q'ten Lo
without any more trouble.

17:49.570 --> 17:50.610
Naofumi-chan!

17:50.610 --> 17:51.810
Raphtalia-chan!

17:52.850 --> 17:54.760
Naofumi-sama!

17:54.760 --> 17:55.690
Atla!

18:21.820 --> 18:23.160
Where are we?

18:23.880 --> 18:25.430
You okay?

18:25.430 --> 18:26.140
Yes.

18:26.140 --> 18:28.950
Whew! There you are!

18:30.080 --> 18:32.480
You got caught in that thing, too, huh?

18:32.480 --> 18:33.500
Yes.

18:33.500 --> 18:36.150
The Water Dragon's brought us here.

18:36.150 --> 18:38.900
I could feel it in the whirlpool myself.

18:39.340 --> 18:41.150
The Water Dragon...

18:41.150 --> 18:44.200
There has to have been another 
way to get us here...

18:44.200 --> 18:45.710
That's right.

18:45.710 --> 18:47.950
Why would they do this?

18:49.290 --> 18:52.080
It seems there's something they 
wanted to share, and it's urgent.

18:52.600 --> 18:53.690
What's this?

18:54.170 --> 18:56.030
A fragment of a Dragon Emperor.

18:56.030 --> 18:59.490
It contains a message from 
the Water Dragon, it seems.

18:59.930 --> 19:01.500
You sure about this?

19:01.500 --> 19:03.050
If you go out of control again...

19:03.050 --> 19:04.710
I sense no trace of evil about it.

19:04.710 --> 19:06.350
It'll be fine.

19:08.350 --> 19:09.890
I see.

19:09.890 --> 19:11.470
Did you learn something?

19:11.950 --> 19:18.730
It seems the Water Dragon's wish is for you 
to return this nation to its rightful form.

19:18.730 --> 19:20.950
"Rightful form"?

19:21.530 --> 19:25.650
This nation was covered by 
a barrier for many years.

19:26.320 --> 19:30.650
This barrier existed to protect the 
Pacifier of Spirit Implements.

19:31.070 --> 19:33.460
"Pacifier"?

19:33.460 --> 19:35.680
I don't know much more than that,

19:35.970 --> 19:39.380
but it seems your clan fulfilled 
that role for generations.

19:41.000 --> 19:44.730
Raphtalia-chan, did your 
father ever say anything?

19:44.730 --> 19:47.730
I'm sorry... Never.

19:48.040 --> 19:51.330
He probably thought you didn't need to know.

19:51.330 --> 19:52.340
Yes.

19:52.340 --> 19:53.440
"Spirit Implements"...

19:53.870 --> 19:57.650
That probably refers to the 
Cardinal Weapons, I think.

19:57.920 --> 19:59.920
I agree.

19:59.920 --> 20:02.220
Then "Pacifier"....

20:02.220 --> 20:07.570
The name implies it's someone who keeps
a leash on the wielders of those weapons.

20:08.180 --> 20:12.110
For example, if a hero misuses 
the power of a weapon,

20:12.110 --> 20:17.170
having somebody immune to its effects 
would keep the worst from happening.

20:18.420 --> 20:22.380
So their weapons are an 
application of that art?

20:22.810 --> 20:24.150
Naofumi-sama?

20:25.060 --> 20:28.610
So what are we supposed to do, specifically?

20:28.970 --> 20:33.560
The Emperor has control 
over Q'ten Lo's barrier.

20:33.790 --> 20:38.480
First, that needs to be fixed, or our 
friends won't be able to make landfall.

20:38.480 --> 20:39.710
What?

20:39.710 --> 20:40.560
Raph-chan!

20:53.430 --> 20:57.340
They're going in circles 
and stuck, I'm told.

20:57.340 --> 21:00.080
Just like the Water Dragon said, huh?

21:00.080 --> 21:03.080
So even if we'd kept going, 
we never would've made it, huh?

21:03.360 --> 21:07.380
There's a base nearby that 
controls the barrier, it seems.

21:15.210 --> 21:18.270
I hate the idea that it's manipulating us.

21:19.240 --> 21:21.270
But let's head outside.

21:23.390 --> 21:24.570
What's this?

21:25.000 --> 21:29.540
The Water Dragon prepared these 
to hide your identities.

21:29.540 --> 21:31.280
They're well-prepared, huh?

21:37.450 --> 21:38.710
A shining cherry tree?

21:39.420 --> 21:42.590
A species unique to Q'ten Lo.
The Sakura Lumina.

21:50.010 --> 21:53.810
It wasn't easy, but I guess we made it.

21:55.500 --> 21:59.490
This is where my mother 
and father were born.

23:36.200 --> 23:39.950
<b>Arriving in Q'ten Lo</b>
