03x24 - As Long As You Are Here

[bunniefuu]

When the look on your face changes
from hope to despair…

That's the ultimate pleasure for me!

Sir Meliodas…

Let's finish this, Fraudrin.

This time, I'll make sure

you're completely obliterated
from this world.

Meliodas.

Your magical power is just like…

Just like your former…

You monster!

Even with a Commandment as an opponent,
his power's overwhelming!

Of course, it is.

While Fraudrin's Power Level is ,,

the captain's is about double that.

And now that he's in his Demon form,
that number is even higher.

Three thousand years ago…

And years ago…

The whole time you were wallowing
in your sentimental dreams,

we b*rned for revenge
against the Goddess Clan,

against you, and continued to wait.

It was the same for me.

Don't die yet.

Hey.

That's not how the captain
usually does things.

This is a tale of ancient times,

when the human and non-human worlds
had not yet split.

The ,-year-old seal has been broken.

The Demon Clan's elite troops,
the Ten Commandments, now awakened,

are about to bury Britannia
in blood and fear.

Rising up to counter this thr*at
is a group of great sinners,

a legendary order of knights.

They are called the Seven Deadly Sins.

, YEARS AGO

Sir Meliodas has betrayed us?

It appears so.

He k*lled his companions,
Aranak and Zeno, and then vanished.

How could this be?

So in other words, he fled
from the battle against the Goddess Clan?

That's not entirely accurate.

Rather than flee, he threw himself
into a battle for the one he loves.

Can you understand that?

For me, I can't understand.

I'm a member of
the Demon King's elite troops,

the Ten Commandments…

Fraudrin of Selflessness!

You never received a Commandment
from the Demon King.

You're nothing but a substitute.

Shut up, you traitor!

I have the pride of the Demon Clan!

The pride that you've lost!

Zaratras gave me a good hint.

I don't intend to die so easily!

How long will you keep that mocking smile?

What's going on?

To think that he would put all of
his life force towards self-destruction…

-Self…
-Self-destruction?

Don't worry.
He can't destroy a Perfect Cube.

That's not what we're worried about.

Naturally, neither can the captain.

Even if I can't take you out,
I'll most likely wipe Liones from the map!

Brother!

It's a lie…

Zeal! Stay with me!

Because of you,

the few Humans who managed to survive
in hiding will all be wiped out!

If you're going to die, hurry it up.

I'm starting to get sleepy.

He's nothing
but a worthless scoundrel, after all!

Merlin, is provoking him part
of the captain's strategy?

Dreyfus, at least you'll be coming with me
to the next world!

It's too bad about your son, though.

It's all right, Griamore.

I'll be with you until the very end!

Father…

Father! Welcome home!

Today, I sparred with Gil ten times,
and I b*at him three times!

I see. You've gotten really good!

No…

Someday, I want to become
a Holy Knight just like you, Father!

Well, of course, you can!

I was only acting…

so you wouldn't realize
that I had seized this body.

Father!

Father!

Father!

No!

Griamore!

Please don't k*ll Father or the others!

Stop! What are you doing?

-That idiot!
-Griamore! Please stop!

Stop!

Release that spell right now, Griamore!

Let go of me! Release the spell, Griamore!

Please…

Be a good boy.

Rather than flee, he threw himself
into a battle for the one he loves.

Can you understand that?

I get it.

I won't k*ll your father or anyone else.

Do you promise?

Yes.

So take down this wall,
and go to your father.

Looks like I'm the one who
was wallowing in a sentimental dream…

Can you understand that?

I never wanted to understand this.

k*ll me.

No!

Meliodas…

What have I been…

That's right!

We were att*cked
by the Demon Clan on our way to Liones,

and then…

Mom got…

Mom!

Mom…

Mom.

You're alive!

Ms. Merlin!

It's been a while, Escanor.

I knew it!

I was sure it was your magical power!

I've heard about your exploits.

I would expect no less of the Lion Sin.
Do you continue to be unrivaled?

Oh, no, I wouldn't say that.

I heard you had been turned to stone…

Of course,
I had no doubt that you'd be fine.

What's wrong?

We're finally reunited,
but you don't seem very happy.

Ban, and is that…

the captain?

How long are you going to stand there?

You want to say something, right?

Well, yes.

I'm glad you're alive, buddy.

Why don't we hoist a few tonight
to celebrate?

I'm sure we saw the captain perish
right before our eyes.

Meliodas is resurrected,
no matter how many times he dies.

What?

Due to the power of a curse
placed on him by the Demon King.

Cursed…

not to die?

That's incredible.

The problem is that
each time he's resurrected,

his emotions are consumed,

and he regresses towards the state when he
was known as the most evil Demon of all.

-Cap--
-Let him be for now.

Fraudrin might have been the one
who sowed the seeds of numerous tragedies,

but that wasn't the way to defeat him.

The souls of four noble Holy Knights
have found their final resting place here.

Please pray for these four
who made the ultimate sacrifice

by laying down their lives
for the kingdom, for the people.

Marmas…

You d*ed far too soon.

Sir Denzel,
why didn't you tell us anything?

Dogedo. Rest in peace with your friend.

I never even had a decent conversation
with my brother.

Why did you have to die protecting me?

When all you ever did was complain to me?

No!

Why did Sir Denzel have to die
and leave you two alive?

You bastards!

That's enough!

Can't you see
they didn't want to be controlled?

Everyone.

As king, I ask you to peacefully send off
the souls of those who lost their lives.

Sire…

And if possible,

I hope you will strive to restore,
as soon as possible,

the kingdom and the hearts of the people,
ravaged by the Demon Clan.

To that end, we must stand as one!

They really did a number on the place.

There's nothing left of it.

I see a few bottles survived!

And it looks like there's something left
to make a meal with!

Now then…

That looks appetizing!

Well, it's probably going to
taste awful anyway.

Since I did manage to avenge Liz,
how about a toast?

I guess drinking alone
once in a while isn't too bad.

I knew you would be here!

Elizabeth!

Why are you here?

Because I wanted to be.

That's fine,
but there's nothing decent here.

I know. That's okay!

Thank you for the meal!

Well? Pretty gross, right?

Yes.

But it is delicious, after all.

What kind of taste is that?
Gross and delicious?

Unable to rely on anyone,
a girl wandered alone

until she collapsed from exhaustion,
when someone offered to help her…

It's the taste created
by that kind person!

That Ban…

What was his expression
when he was looking at me before?

I'm at my wit's end.

I can't even look my buddy
in the eye anymore.

What's happened to me?

When I k*lled Fraudrin,

I felt so good.

Actually, I still feel
really good even now.

Meliodas…

I'm scared of turning back
into who I was in the past.

But I've got to turn back
into my past self,

or else I won't be able to save you.

Save…

me?

It's all right.

It's going to be all right, Meliodas.

Right, I'm going to head out now.

Oh, I'll be too busy rebuilding the castle
and the town to come home any time soon,

so take care of things here!

Never mind, just open
those half-asleep eyes and get going!

That hurt! Jeez!

No way!

The town…

The castle…

They're back to normal!

How's this, Ms. Merlin?

You're quite skilled, Escanor.

It's true that
I rebuilt the buildings overnight.

Well, I was the one
who destroyed half of them.

However, that's simply
how it looks on the surface.

On the surface?

The buildings may have been restored,

but that won't revive the dead,
nor will it heal the souls of the people.

That said, this last battle unquestionably
ended in victory for us Seven Deadly Sins.

I doubt that there'd be any repercussions
if you were a little happy, Captain.

Right…

Meliodas…

Captain?

What's up?

Where were you last night?

Our celebration totally fell flat
without you!

Ban…

Sorry about yesterday.

I had no idea how I should approach you.

It's not like anything
would change between us.

You didn't do anything wrong.

I know, right?

You've always got
that blank look on your face,

so all my worrying was for--

Shut up.

Oh, my friend…

O noble wrath…

Though our bodies
be desecrated by this curse,

it cannot desecrate the beautiful rose
blooming in our hearts.

O my friend, the gallant Sin!

A poem?

Oh, please don't get the wrong idea.

I wouldn't be so arrogant as to presume
to know your feelings, Captain.

However, as someone who's been inflicted
by the same curse as you,

I do understand that pain,
if nothing else…

So, well…

Please try to cheer up, all right?

An eight.

What? An eight?

Eight out of how many points?

Listen, who explains himself
every time he spouts a poem?

By the way, what I meant
by "beautiful rose" was,

in my case, Ms. Merlin,

and in your case, Captain--

Okay, that's enough.

Please allow me to finish my explanation.

Escanor.

Ban.

Thank you!

Is it true that
Griamore will return to normal?

Yes.

That's what Lady Merlin said.

Griamore encountered a monster
inside the Druids' Cave of Training…

The Ancient Revenant,
who reads people's minds

and transforms them into whatever
they instinctually fear the most.

The spell of the Anaon.

What Griamore detested the most
was his powerless, young self.

That much is obvious just looking
at that muscular build of his.

Is there a way to release the spell
cast on my son?

There is.

And that is?

And what was the method?

Well, the thing is…

I feel so sorry for Mr. Demon…

Don't cry anymore, Griamore.

Do you have any idea
how worried I was about you?

It's a kiss from the one he loves.

Griamore?

Lady Veronica?

What am I…

Lady Veronica!

What's the matter…

sh*t b*mb!

I'm eating Ban's scraps
for the first time in forever,

so I have no complaints!

From now on,
the alcohol is going to be better, too.

Right, Barkeep?

Right, I'll do my best!

Well, Ms. Merlin?

Aren't you going to
fix this building as well?

That's not my job.

Yes.

We've got to fix it
with our own hands, right?

Now then, we can't let this victory
go to our head,

so we need to make our next move.

What we know right now is…

that the large number
of Holy Knights and civilians

stricken by the Commandments
have fled to the south.

In other words,
the Ten Commandments' next stronghold…

is the royal capital, Camelot.

Sir Arthur…

That kid won't go down without a fight.

Yes, that's true.

Merlin, there's something else we know.

Elaine is still alive.

Which means Melascula of Faith
isn't dead yet, either.

It's not just her.

Zeldris of Piety,

Gloxinia of Repose,

Drole of Patience,

and Estarossa of Love.

The thr*at still remains.

If we rush into battle,
we're sure to be defeated.

We've lost so many of our own comrades,

we'll be lacking
in terms of fighting power.

True, we've lost a good deal of power.

But…

Damn it!

Stupid…

I'm so stupid!

I let myself get consumed
by unrequited love,

and ended up making trouble for everyone…

Protected by my brother…

My brother…

What am I…

supposed to do?

This is the same magical power
my brother had.

I understand, Brother.

I'll try again…

to become a better Holy Knight than you!

There's also power that's created
as a result of such losses.

That's what you call
the logic of the world.

We can't be too optimistic,
but there's no need to lose hope, either.

Now then…

Since Escanor's back with us…

Under orders from His Majesty,
King Bartra,

and Lady Merlin of the Seven Deadly Sins,

we are releasing you.

I am Gowther the Goat Sin
of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Sparkle!

Just remember
that you haven't been cleared

of the suspicion of being a member
of the Demon Clan's Ten Commandments.

After you.

I am Gowther of Selflessness…

of the Ten Commandments.

Sparkle.

I'm glad you're all enjoying yourselves!

Thanks, King!

This time, we have to bring all seven
of the Seven Deadly Sins together.

Meliodas.

No matter what happens,

no matter who becomes my enemy,
I'll always be on your side.

And I'll be by your side…

forever.

THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
