02x03 - I'll Destroy the Holy Sword!

[bunniefuu]

[DDRAIG] Boost!

[IRINA] Amen!

Issei, look out!

Dude, what the hell;

that was dangerous.

I thought this was

a friendly fight!

[IRINA] Oh!

To return to my

hometown only to be forced

to k*ll one of

my oldest friends.

Alas, fate can be so cruel!

Issei, try to avoid

her direct att*cks!

Yeah. That is

the plan. Thanks!

[DDRAIG] Boost!

[XENOVIA] The Red Dragon

Emperor's Dragon Hand?

That with Asia Argento's

Twilight Healing

and your Sword Birth.

You devils certainly

have a fair amount

of the pagan sacred treasures.

I have another power.

One that comes from grudges

of my fallen comrades.

With this power,

I will destroy

all the Excaliburs.

And along with them,

I will annihilate

their wielders!

[AKENO] Just being touched

by a Holy Sword

can injure a devil.

They're at a huge disadvantage.

Kiba can manage

with speed, but Issei.

I'm a little worried.

Actually, that

sword doesn't seem

to be bothering him much.

[AKENO] Or at all.

But, that left arm

is the Dragon itself.

You're way too simple

to be that impertinent.

Whatever that means,

you're gonna regret it.

Know why?

Because I'm gonna

make you pay hard core!

Besides!

I never miss

out on boobs!

[DDRAIG] Boost!

[ISSEI thinking] Irina Shido,

you focus on worshipping God,

and I'll focus on worshipping

your tight ass bod!

Uh, that's freaky.

What is he making

that lecherous face for?

[KONEKO] You

should be careful.

Seriously, watch

out for that pervo-jerk

because he has

the power to blow away

a woman's clothes

just by touching them.

What? Their clothes?

Koneko, why

are you giving

my secrets away

to the enemy?

Because you are the

enemy to all women.

Sometimes the things

you say really hurt.

I can hardly believe how

you've ended up, Issei.

It's not enough that you've

turned into an evil devil,

but your heart is filled

with such extreme

wickedness, now!

Dear God, I pray that

in your divine wisdom

you will never forgive

this sinful pervert!

Preach it, sister.

It's time for you to burn!

And then freeze!

How naive!

[XENOVIA]

The Holy Sword of Destruction.

Believe me, this sword's

name is not just for show!

After being

split into seven,

it's still this strong.

Then I guess there's

gonna have to be

a lot of carnage when

I destroy all of 'em.

Kiba. What's

gotten in to him?

Hey, Xenovia,

warn me the next time

you wanna

destroy the ground.

Anyway, I suppose

it's about time

you and I finished

this game.

[DDRAIG] Boost!

Let's do this!

[DDRAIG] expl*si*n!

Here we go!

Dress break!

Ew! Gross!

This is it!

[IRINA] No! Stop it!

It looks like

Issei's movements

are getting more

flexible and much faster.

All thanks to

his pervertedness.

This isn't fair;

leave me alone!

Never underestimate

the power of a twisted mind!

[ISSEI] Thank you so much!

All is right with the world!

Sicko freak.

You know what?

I think you've received

divine punishment.

So, perhaps you should seal away

this kind of obscene att*ck.

Sound good?

[ISSEI] Nope.

Huh?

[ISSEI] No way. No how.

I've put all my devil power

into my kick-ass move.

And deciding between this

and x-ray vision

wasn't very easy, either.

There is still so

much for me to see,

so many more girls'.

Boobs. Booties.

My dream is to see

every single one of them.

And I will. Soon.

Get ready for me, girls!

Cuz I'm gonna fight

until I'm strong enough

to blow a chick's clothes off.

Just by

thinking about it!

I can't believe

he was able to fight

this hard just to

see some naked flesh.

What? Sex is power, yo!

Sex is justice!

I may have

underestimated you a little;

your movements were

almost good enough.

Almost.

Issei!

[ISSEI] Crap. What is this? Ow.

But, it was only a scratch!

[AKENO] Caused

by a Holy Sword.

I don't like this.

[DDRAIG] Reset!

It's no use.

I'm too damn weak.

Son of a titty stealer.

[ASIA] Oh no!

[AKENO] The power from the

Boosted Gear has been released.

He's surpassed his limits.

[IRINA] We're done here.

I have to agree with you.

Yes, Irina Shido.

I officially

acknowledge your win.

Aw, damn it all to hell!

Why don't

we see which of these

destructive swords

is the most destructive.

Will it be your

Holy or my Demon?

[XENOVIA] Too bad.

[XENOVIA] Your only

weapons are a few swords

and a little speed.

Not only do you lack the

power to use a large sword,

but in the process,

you're sealing away

that speed you're so proud of.

Please, don't tell me

you didn't realize that fact?

[KIBA] No. Wait.

[XENOVIA] You should know only

to fight when you're rational.

After all. You are my superior.

[XENOVIA] Looks like the end.

So then, are you satisfied,

Rias Gremory?

Yes.

I'm grateful neither

were dealt final blows.

Thank you both

for your integrity.

[XENOVIA] Of course.

And remember what

we talked about earlier.

[RIAS] Just out of curiosity.

Did you find out which

fallen angel was guilty?

Of stealing the swords, I mean.

We know who was behind it. Yes.

The leader of the Grigoris.

Named Kokabiel.

Huh? Yeah, uh.

So, who are the Grigoris?

Fallen angels.

It's a group of them

who are also known

as the "Ones Who Watch Over

the Children of God".

The two of you

are after a leader class?

Are you planning to die?

We do what we must

to keep the fallen

from the Holy Swords.

I am willing to trade

my life to annihilate them.

We understand the danger.

There has already

been one casualty.

[IRINA] A priest

who came to this town

to check things out

ahead of time was k*lled.

[KIBA] I know who k*lled him.

Freed Sellzen.

Whaddaya mean Freed?

Really?

The stray priest did?

[KIBA] I happened to be there

when the priest was m*rder*d.

And Freed definitely

had a Holy Sword.

Interesting it

was a stray priest.

At least we know

what we're up against.

[XENOVIA] I appreciate the

information you've shared,

but don't involve yourselves

further in our affairs.

[XENOVIA] We'll take our leave.

Hold on;

wait for me, Xenovia!

Well. Thank you.

This has been such fun.

Issei, I'll be here

to judge you anytime!

[smooches] Amen!

[RIAS] Where are

you going, Kiba?

You do realize I will never

permit you to leave me.

Remember, you are a

Knight of the House of Gremory.

[KIBA] I know, President.

And I'm sorry.

[RIAS] Kiba.

[ASIA] Oh no. He left.

Oh, Kiba. Why now?

[IRINA] I don't

get why I can't even

take a bath comfortably.

I bet this must be

another trial from God.

[XENOVIA]

Do you really believe that?

[XENOVIA] After all,

you were the one

who spent all of our money.

For what? A weird,

suspicious looking picture?

What are

you trying to say?

There's an honest to goodness

holy person in that image,

and you know it!

The exhibition guy said so.

And why would he lie?

[XENOVIA] Why did I have to

be stuck with you as a partner?

[IRINA] Wow, when

you get depressed,

you get like really

depressed, don't you?

[XENOVIA] Oh, be quiet.

[stomach growling]

[XENOVIA] First things first,

we have to find a way

to get something to eat.

We're hardly in the condition

to retrieve Excalibur right now.

[IRINA] Yeah, you're right.

In that case,

you wanna thr*aten people

from other religions

so they'll give us money?

Since they won't

be with the church,

God will totally

forgive us. Probably.

[XENOVIA]

If we're going that far,

we might as well just steal

a temple's offering box

or something like that instead.

[IRINA]

Oh, that would be easier!

Good plan!

[XENOVIA] No.

We can't do that.

[IRINA] Right.

I guess that wouldn't be

very nice, now would it?

[KIRYUU] Congratulations!

We're gonna

karaoke with you all!

Asia, too, right?

Yeah, I'm planning on it.

Aw, hell yeah!

Screw Kiryuu,

I'll take two of that fly Asia.

What's wrong, Issei?

Be careful not to let all

their loser rub off on you.

Oh, hello, Saji.

How are you doing?

Better now that

I've laid my eyes on you.

Watch it!

Student council

secretary or not,

you need to

back off, mo-fo!

Such aggression.

This is what I'm

talking about, Asia.

[ISSEI] Oh yeah.

I forgot about him.

[SAJI] Hyodo.

Hey, yeah, uh-- Sorry

for calling you out here.

No worries, man. So?

Hell no; are

you even serious?

[ISSEI] As a

five-hour boner, dude!

You're insane!

You realize both of

our presidents will punish us

just for being involved with

those Holy Swords, right?

And yet you still wanna

go out and destroy them?

We're gonna get

m*rder*d for sure!

I mean, you've got Rias.

She's strict, but reasonable.

Sona is draconian

and loves punishing us!

No way, man. Sorry.

Big surprise;

I kinda had a feeling you

would try to run away.

I wanna go home!

So you wanna

cooperate with the Church?

Makes sense.

I mean, those chicks said

they'd rather destroy the swords

than have the fallen angels

use them, didn't they?

Yes.

It seems like

they'll stop at nothing

to get them back

in the Church's hands.

Kiba wants to get his revenge

by defeating Excalibur.

And the church

wants the swords back

no matter what it costs.

The goals might be different,

but they have the same result.

That's why it works.

We just gotta get

both to cooperate.

I'm not sure

they'll be as eager

to do this as you are, though.

We should at least try!

Especially if it

means Kiba will be able

to keep being a devil

with the rest of us.

I think we gotta do

everything we can think of!

First, we have to find

those girls. Somehow.

I don't like keeping this

secret from Rias and Akeno,

but we have to do

something to help him.

Cool, so I don't have to

be here anymore, do I?

You've got your rook on board,

so what do you need me for?

We need you because the

stronger we are, the better.

Probably won't be too easy

to find them, you know?

It's not like we're

gonna run into

a couple of weirdoes in

white robes on Main Street.

Oh, blessings on the

wandering sheep before us.

We are pitiful when

compared to you, O Lord!

Please have mercy

upon us, dear Father!

[ISSEI] Or maybe we will.

[KONEKO] Right.

So, delicious!

Don't you agree?

This is heaven!

Oh yeah!

Everything I'm putting into my

mouth is like food for the soul!

[SAJI] Watching this is a

little too intense for me.

[ISSEI] Yeah, looks like

they were really hungry.

[WAITRESS A] Here's

your hamburger steak.

[XENOVIA] What just happened?

Even if this

will build our faith,

the devil saving us

must mean the end of days.

We've practically sold

our souls to the devil!

How will we ever be forgiven?

That's my thanks

for buying you food?

Get it together, bro.

Sorry, I couldn't help it,

but I'm smiling now, see?

Lord, please, have mercy

on these kind souls

even if they are devils.

[cries in anger]

For the love

of thick thighs!

Damn it; we don't need

God's blessing. Stop it!

Oh, right; I'm sorry.

It's kind of a habit.

[XENOVIA] Well? What's the deal?

What did you want

to talk to us about?

We want to help

you destroy Excalibur.

What?

[XENOVIA]

I understand the situation.

I don't mind letting you

take care of one sword.

Wait a minute, Xenovia!

You mean it?

Why couldn't she

just have refused us

like I was

hoping she would?

You know who

the other side has.

Kokabiel is dangerous.

Honestly, it'll be

impossible for us

to recover all

three swords on our own.

Yeah, I get that,

but they're like devils!

We have a thirty

percent chance

of returning home.

We knew what

kind of risk

we were taking

before we got here.

This isn't anything

new, Xenovia!

True.

We were sent by the higher ups,

fully prepared to sacrifice our

lives for this sacred cause.

That's what I just said.

Were you even

listening to me at all?

[KIBA] I get it.

But I'm quite

disappointed that someone

who could wield an

Excalibur would approve

of their destruction.

[XENOVIA]

Speaking of disappointing.

Didn't you recently abandon your

place in the House of Gremory?

[XENOVIA]

Since you're a stray now.

We could execute

you if you'd like.

[KIBA] You're welcome

to try if you'd like.

Hold it, guys!

We're trying to cooperate

here, so no fighting.

Simmer down!

You obviously resent what

the Holy Sword Project did.

I completely understand.

That incident is viewed

with great repugnance

by those of us currently

with the Church, as well.

We know.

And that is why the person

responsible was punished.

Excommunicated.

His name

is Galilei Valper.

Also known as the

Archbishop of Annihilation.

I know Valper.

It was all him.

He was responsible.

[XENOVIA] I told

you one of his tools

was a stray priest, didn't I?

[ISSEI] You mean Freed?

[XENOVIA] It's not

uncommon for there

to be collusion among those

who've been banned

from the Church.

There's a high possibility

Valper is involved

with what's going

on now, as well.

Well, after hearing that,

there's no reason for me

not to cooperate with you.

Yay! Then I guess

it's been decided.

We shall return the favor

for the food someday, Red

Dragon Emperor Issei Hyodo.

So this is

good news, yeah?

This is not good news!

This is not good news at all;

not only could we

have been k*lled,

but we could've been responsible

for another w*r with the Church!

[KIBA] Issei.

Seemed like our turn

to help since you're

always saving us.

[KIBA] I want you

to stay out of this.

What's going on here

is my revenge, not yours.

I cannot allow this.

I don't want you all involved.

But we're

family, aren't we?

We're supposed to be friends!

You tell me that I'm wrong!

No, you're not wrong.

but still, there's--

But nothing.

How can you expect us

to just let you go?

To be what? A stray?

And it's not only us, either!

Have you thought about Rias?

President Rias,

of course.

Of course.

I first met her

because of the project.

I would be dead if not for her.

[KIBA] We were just kids,

being experimented

on day after day.

Our freedom was taken,

and we weren't

even treated as humans.

Yet, we all believed

we were chosen by God.

We held to those beliefs,

hoping eventually

we'd become special.

However, not one of us became

able to wield a Holy Sword.

The experiment failed.

[KIBA] We were disposed

of pretty quickly

after that in order to

cover up what had happened.

Even as we were vomiting blood

and writhing on the floor.

We looked to God to save us.

[BOY C] Run away!

[GIRL A] Hurry! Save yourself!

[MALE SOLDIER -]

Which way did he go?

[MALE SOLDIER -]

We have to catch him!

[YOUNG KIBA] Damn it.

I have to make things right.

I have to avenge

my comrades, my friends.

[YOUNG KIBA]

No. I can't die yet!

[YOUNG KIBA] I have to live.

[RIAS] If you're

going to die anyway,

I don't mind taking you in.

So from now on,

live for me.

[KIBA] I thank Rias from

the bottom of my heart

for taking me in as

part of her House.

[KIBA] But the truth is,

I was only able

to run away because

of my comrades.

They're the real

reason I'm still here.

That's why I have

to destroy Excalibur.

My sword contains

my friends' pain.

As the only survivor,

I've no choice.

[sobs] Oh, Kiba!

I had no idea you had

such a horribly tragic past!

And I don't care about

Sona's punishment anymore!

Hyodo, put me in, coach;

I'll help you with every

single thing I've got!

Yeah? Thanks, man.

That's cool.

[KONEKO] I will

also help you.

Koneko?

Don't be so stupid;

I would be sad if you

weren't with us, Kiba.

I guess I've lost then.

I mean, if you're even

going along with this plan,

then I'm just

never gonna be able

to do anything rash on my own.

For real?

Plus we all agree who

the real enemy is.

I will accept your help,

so thanks, guys.

[SONA] Really? Kiba did?

[RIAS] Do you think--

Did I make a mistake?

[SONA] He is still

part of your House, right?

[RIAS] Of course.

No matter what he says,

there's no way I'd let

Kiba leave me like that.

He's just being dramatic.

[SONA] Why am I not surprised?

After all, the House

of Gremory is famous

for the strong bond between

its family members, is it not?

[RIAS] Yes.

[SONA] I believe it's true

his feelings may have gotten

the best of him, at least,

for the moment, it seems.

I have no doubt.

He will always be a

member of your house.

Kiba will come

back to you, Rias.

I know it.

Thank you, Sona.

Thank you.

[AKENO] Excuse us

for the intrusion.

Thank you both for

all of your hard work today.

It's getting

pretty late, isn't it?

What's going on?

The situation is quite grave.

[ISSEI] What? Asia?

[ASIA] So, what do you think?

Do you like this on me?

Oh yeah, not bad!

I mean um-- what are you doing;

why are you wearing

that costume?

I thought that

you might be

a little depressed

since you lost the fight.

So I asked Aika for some

advice on what to do.

This is her idea; she thought

wearing it would cheer you up.

Wait, you mean Aika Kiryuu?

Basically Issei's depressed,

and you want to

make him feel better?

Yes.

Do you really think there's

anything that I can do, though?

[KIRYUU]

Lemme think for a second.

Wait!

I have the perfect

thing to cheer him up!

And I just so happen to

have bought it recently!

[ASIA] So, Aika let me

borrow this cute outfit

from her to wear

especially for you.

She said wearing

this kind of thing

has a restoring effect

on the average male.

[thinking] That girl's

as perverted as me.

Well then?

Did it make you feel

a little better?

[ISSEI] Yes,

thank you, Asia.

[ISSEI] Listen,

I'm perfectly fine.

Besides, if I let

that fight bum me out,

I'd be saying Kiba

should feel bad, too.

[ASIA] I guess

that would be rude.

How is Kiba?

He's not too upset

about everything, is he?

Nah, he's a trooper;

he'll be all right.

Try to have more

faith in us, Asia.

Okay!

Oh yeah, by the way.

You can go ahead

and change out

of that get up

now if you want to.

What?

I can if you'd like that,

but I don't think you've

been fully restored yet.

No, I'm fine; already

restored enough!

In fact, I'm starting to get

restored in a different way.

What do you mean by

"a different way"?

Did I do anything wrong?

[ISSEI] No! Asia,

get out of my head!

I think it's great

you're working so hard,

but why so late?

Hey, I can't help it;

I got an emergency summons!

When Rias gets home,

tell her I said, "Hi!", okay?

Okay.

And congratulations on

getting a regular customer!

Thank you.

I'll be back later.

[ISSEI] Um, hello?

Yeah, it's Issei.

I'm sorry, but I won't be able

to make it to today's summoning.

[ISSEI'S CLIENT]

Well, all right.

No problem;

don't worry about it.

I'll just call for you

again some other time. Later.

Only a devil would

cancel on me last minute.

Hey.

Have you come

to keep sad, lonely

little ol' me company?

That's funny.

I didn't realize

you ever got lonely.

[ISSEI] Yo, Issei here!

Someone even more

amazing and terrifying

shows up when we

try to lure Freed out!

The battle goes down

big time at Kuoh Academy!

Next time:

"A Strong Enemy Appeared!"

Let's do it, Breastacles!
