Magic Knight Rayearth (1994–1995): Season 2, Episode 16 - Fu tai Asuka! Inochigake no Yumi Shobu - full transcript

At the conclusion of the painful battle
in the alternate world of Cephiro,

I, Fuu Hououji, was once again
summoned to Cephiro from Tokyo Tower,

a place I will never forget, with Miss
Hikaru Shidou, and Miss Umi Ryuuzaki.

There, three different counties
called Autozam, Chizeta and Fahren,

had begun an invasion in hopes of taking
control of Cephiro and it's Pillar.

However, it appears that another unknown
enemy has it's own evil intentions.

Debonair, and Nova - a girl who looks
surprisingly similar to Miss Hikaru.

I wonder, just
who could they be?

Presently, I find myself being
held captive by those from Fahren,

aboard a large mobile
fortress called the Dome.

And I've been taken to meet
the Princess of Fahren, Miss Aska.



What will ever become of me?

[Dragon shrieks]

I understand you are Miss Aska?

That's right!

I am the first princess
of the country of Fahren!

I am Aska!

Do you think she'll
be alright, Elder?

Yes. We were certain
to take everything away

from that young lady
that looked like a weapon.

She should be harmless now.

I believe that we are safe.

Tell me everything
you know about Cephiro!

I cannot. I actually came from
another world than Cephiro.

Another world?



Where is "Another World"?

[Frustrated groans]

Lady Aska! This is precisely
why I tell you to keep studying!

[Giggles]

Fahren is certainly full of
interesting people, isn't it?

The elder really
complains too much.

It is a sign of his concern
for your welfare, Miss Aska.

Since you're able to
control such a strong

and cool looking
thing as a Rune God,

I guess you must
be pretty strong.

Well, physically I
am not so strong at all.

If you're not strong, how come
you can control a Rune God?

The Rune God is not
something you can control.

Hmm?

Each of the Rune
Gods has a heart.

Because the Rune God saw
proof of the strength of my heart,

it's heart accepted me
and fights along with me.

Then you mean those
Rune Gods are really alive!?

Yes.

[Awed squeal]

Wow! [Excited laughter]

I want it! [Giddy laugh]

I wanna have a Rune
God of my own, too!

You there! You will give the
Rune God to me as an offering!

I'm afraid I can't do that.

Why not?

I need the Rune God to fight
with my friends and defend Cephiro.

Also, I made a
promise to myself that I

would stay and fight
of my own free will.

[Dejected sigh]

I definitely,
definitely want it!

- I have an idea.
- Huh?

Are you proficient in archery?

Nobody in Fahren
can beat me in archery!

Then how about we have a match.

If you should happen to win then
I will let you have my Rune God.

However, if I should win, I would
like you to return me to Cephiro.

[Uncertain gasp]

So how about it?

If you aren't
proficient in archery I'm

sure we that can
think of something else.

As for me I'm not particularly
good at archery really.

I'll do it!

Lady Aska!
You mustn't decide things so hastily.

Prepare for the match!

Miss Hikaru... Miss Umi…

I will make sure I return.
So take care until then.

[Magic ripples]

[Strained breaths]

[Water trickles, echoes]

[Stirs softly]

Huh?

Huh?

Where am I?

Hikaru.

- Huh?
- Hikaru!

Presea?

Remember, Hikaru!

Remember my words!

[Magic hums]

Believe in
yourself at all times.

[Quiet gasp]

You've got to hold
on to your wish.

My wish?

[Strained groans]

My... my wish.

Fight with everything
you've got, Hikaru!

Don't let yourself be
swallowed up in the shadows!

Look at the light!

That's right! I promised
I'd have no regrets this time.

I promised to myself!

And I promised to Umi and Fuu!

That's why no
matter what happens...

No matter what happens,
I'm going to fight for myself!

[Magic ripples]

[Giggles]

[Magic booms]

[Pained grunt]

[Pained groan]

[Startled gasps]

[Giggles]

I won't let you go, Hikaru!

[Happy giggle]

[Thunder booms]

[Deep rumbling]

[Heavy panting]

It's close.

The evil presence has
grown even stronger.

And...

Hikaru's life force is so faint, it feels
like it will disappear at any moment!

[Thunder booms]

[Startled grunt]

Hikaru...

Hikaru!

[Menacing laughter]

[Uneasy gasp]

Get out of my way!

[Rubbery stretch]

Sapphire Whirlwind!

[Rubbery stretch]
[Feminine shouts]

Hikaru!

[Rubbery stretch]

Agh! These guys
won't leave me alone!

- Huh?
- [Menacing laughter]

[Trembling grunt]
[Determined growl]

Hikaru...

Did something happen to you?

Hikaru!

[Menacing laughter]

[Disgusted shout]

[Magic whooshes]

[Shouts]

[Deep inhale]

Oh no!

Beast, I summon thee!

[Startled gasps]

Ascot!

Umi!

Are you all right?

Ascot!

What are you... doing here?

I wanted to protect you.

- That's all.
- Huh?

[Startled gasp]

[Menacing laughter]

Beast, I summon thee!

[Monstrous roar]

[Startled shout]

[Battle shout]

- Hey Ascot!
- Huh?

Thanks a lot.

It was you who once
saved me before Umi.

I'm only returning the favor.

[Battle shout]

[Magic whooshes]

Oh, my my!

It looks like someone's
arrived to give her some help.

Well now!
What a handsome young fellow!

I wonder if he's
Umi's boyfriend.

Tarta, I hope you'll find a
boyfriend one of these days, too!

[Frustrated growl]

Would you please shut up!?

Just look who's talkin'!
You don't have a boyfriend either!

[Giggles]

Huh?

Hey! What are you laughin' about?
You don't have a boyfriend!

[Giggles]

Hey! You don't have one, do ya!?

Tarta... [Magic chimes]

I'm sure you'll find a wonderful
boyfriend who's just like the Djinn!

Huh?

[Startled gasp]

[Obnoxious laugh]

And now for the
rules of this match!

Hup!

[Startled gasp]

[Shrill laughter]

The one who shoots down the
most of these things shall win!

They look like Chizeta's…

That's right.
Those creepy guardian spirits.

They aren't alive by any
chance are they Miss Aska?

They're all created
through the use of illusions.

Fahren doesn't have any
creatures like these things.

[Shrill laughter]

If Miss Umi were here, I
am sure she would be so

grossed out that she
would lose her will to fight.

Bring out the bows and arrows!

[Anxious groan]

You are not a studious princess, but as
you spend your time avoiding the books,

I am confident in your
abilities in archery, Lady Aska.

I'm invincible, elder!

But is it really a good
idea to give her a weapon?

Oh, it's all right!
I've already taken care of everything.

[Sly chuckle]

Here.

Why thank you, very much.

[Awkward grin]

Sang Yung!

Yes ma'am! Whoa!

What is your wish, Lady Aska?

Never mind, Sang Yung! Hmph!

Huh?

Let the match begin!

[Shrill laughter and squealing]

[Shrill squeak]

[Disgusted gasp]

I really don't like them.

You were the one who decided
they should be the targets, Lady Aska!

[Strained grunt]

[Shrill laughter and squealing]

There is no trace of
doubt in any of her shots.

It is amazing how calm she
remains, even in enemy territory.

[Squeals and screams]

[Amazed gasp]

And on the other hand,
there's Lady Aska...

[Frustrated grunts]

[Frustrated scream]

[Heavy panting]

It seems I was able to shoot
down a few more than you.

- Hmm?
- [Shrill squeaks]

[Frustrated growl]

I knew it from the beginning that it
was a mistake to use those things!

Well, I'll be on my way then.

Huh? Don't move!

[Startled gasp]

It seems that Fahren must be a
country with many Chinese influences.

But I think that ninjas
are distinctly Japanese.

Now! Capture the Magic Knight!

[Pained groan]

[Surprised gasps]

Winds of Protection!

[Winds howl]

Winds of Admonishment!

What do you guys
think you're doing!?

Hurry and get the Magic Knight!
[Shocked gasp]

[Winds howl]

- The Magic Knight...
- Huh?

Even though she's in
a dangerous situation,

she hasn't harmed any of the
guards who are trying to capture her.

Huh?

[Shocked grunts]

Winds of Protection!

[Gasps]

[Startled gasp]

[Shrill laughter]

Huh!?

[Frustrated shouting]

[Trembling shout]

Huh? Hey! Wait!

BOTH: Lady Aska!

[Grunts] You're
not going anywhere!

But I have won the archery
match fair and square.

You promised me that
you would allow me to go.

I only lost because I used those
weird things from Chizeta as targets!

Let's try something else, okay!?

I am terribly sorry, but
I do not have the time.

[Frustrated growl]

Hah!

Huh?

[Magic chimes] [Chuckles]

Huh? [Sharp gasp]

[Surprised gasp]

I will not allow you to escape.

Who is it today?

Today, it's Fuu!

Well everyone! Did you guess correctly?
I will see you later!
