Magic Knight Rayearth (1994–1995): Season 2, Episode 2 - Sefiro to Mittsu no Kuni - full transcript

I want to go back
to Cephiro again.

And this time I want to try to
accomplish something good for the place

that Princess Emeraude
worked so hard to

protect with every
single part of her being.

Yeah.

[Magic whooshes]

[Alarmed shouts]

You see it. You see the
present condition of Cephiro.

Nothing remains of the
beautiful landscape that once was.

Now that it has lost it's Pillar, Cephiro
is starting to crumble completely.

No, it's disappearing.



Disappearing...

And that is not all.

Armies from other countries are already
reaching the outskirts of this area.

Cephiro and the Three Countries.

[Thunder rumbles, lightning crackles]

Armies? From other countries?

But Clef, there are other countries
in this world besides Cephiro?

[Magic hums]

Armies have mobilized from three
distant planets, all headed for Cephiro.

Three planets?

Armies?

They're all headed for Cephiro?

That's correct. From three
countries separate from Cephiro.

Autozam.



Chizeta.

And Fahren.

From Autozam?

From Chizeta.

And Fahren.

Until now, Cephiro had been
protected from outside forces,

through the power of the
Pillar, Princess Emeraude.

Anyone trying to
enter Cephiro with ill

intentions was hindered
by an invisible wall,

and they were unable
to enter the country.

[Sighs heavily] You see, that is
how powerful the Pillar of Cephiro was.

Princess Emearude's
duty was not only to protect

Cephiro from internal
wars and strife every day,

but also from threats
from outside invaders.

Hikaru. Umi. Fuu.

I do not know who
summoned you, but Cephiro

is on the verge of
becoming a battlefield.

Yet for you three, your task has already
been completed here in this world.

It ended when you, Magic Knights,
granted the final wish of our Princess.

And as inhabitants from
another world, there is no

reason for you to be
involved in the war for Cephiro.

Even I do not know who has the power
to summon you back from your world.

It can only mean that
somewhere in Cephiro,

there is another who
has the strength of heart

to summon beings from
another world, just like the Pillar.

While we keep our enemies at bay, we will
continue to seek out the next Pillar.

That is the greatest service
I can do for this country,

which Princess Emeraude
risked her life to protect.

I will attempt to find the
one who summoned you.

Til then, stay safe
here in the castle,

in the evacuation
center with the others.

I'm gonna fight with you, Clef.

Hikaru...

It doesn't matter how
we got here, we definitely

wanna join in the
fight to save Cephiro.

But you three have nothing to
do with the battles about to begin.

We do not know who
summoned you, and we

do not know why the
three of you are here.

There is simply no
reason for you to fight.

But there really is a reason.

Here inside, deep
inside of my heart.

I've been thinking.
I've been thinking, and I've decided

on my own that I definitely
want to fight beside you, Clef.

on my own that I definitely
want to fight beside you, Clef.

Yeah, I really have no idea.

Yeah, I really have no idea.

We have enough
cooks and tailors already!

Ahem. You have all
become accomplished fighters.

You three are the Magic Knights. You have
grown by winning hard-fought battles.

Cephiro will now be a
land torn apart by war.

All sorcerers, summoners,
and sword masters

that can fight are
here in this castle.

But without a Pillar,
the battle will be difficult.

We're ready to fight.
And we're ready to do

whatever it takes to
help defend Cephiro.

And we'll do our best not
to be a bother to anybody.

We only hope that in
our small way, we

will be able to help
protect this country.

I believe that I understand
your feelings, Magic Knights.

Bestow Magic!

[Magic ripples]

[Surprised gasps] It's armor!

This isn't like the
type we had before.

It's very different from the
armor that evolved with us.

You are correct.
You will find it no longer

necessary for you
to evolve your armor.

I have given all of you
the armor that only warriors

who have become true
Magic Knights may wear.

True Magic Knights?

The armor that I have just given you
will respond directly to your hearts.

However, it will not
evolve as it did before.

This armor will change shape
only when you feel it is necessary.

Respond directly to our hearts?

You may once again use magic.

And in addition to your
previous spells, I'm sure many

more will come to you as you
continue to learn and mature.

And as for weapons...

They shall be bestowed
upon you by someone else.

By someone else?

[Door creaks open]

Huh?

But it can't be!

[Startled gasps] Presea!

It's been quite a while,
Hikaru, Umi and Fuu.

Presea!

Presea! Presea!

Hikaru.

Are you... are you really Presea?

Can this be true?
Presea, is it really you?

Yes, it's true.

Don't you feel me holding you
in my arms right now, Hikaru?

Presea. I've wanted to
apologize to you for so long.

In the battle that day I
couldn't protect you, Presea.

I really tried my best but
there was nothing I could do.

I'm so sorry. Will you please forgive
me for not being able to save you?

None of what happened
was your fault, Hikaru.

So please don't
shed anymore tears.

But wait. I remember as if it
were yesterday. I remember

that Presea disappeared
in Hikaru's arms that day.

Presea, hold on! Presea!

[Magic hums]

Presea!

It was the wish of
Princess Emeraude.

The princess?

The legendary battle forced
the summoning of Magic Knights.

And it was brought about
as a direct result of Princess

Emeraude and Zagato falling
deeply in love with one another.

Before she died, the princess
wished for the resurrection

of all of the spirits lost
in the legendary battle.

Princess Emeraude felt
responsible for their deaths, because

it was her love for Zagato
that brought such pain to all.

So that included you, Presea.

Master Mage Clef
explained everything, about

how difficult the
battle was for all of you.

As a Master Smith, I
knew all about the legend

of the Magic Knights
summoned from another world.

But I didn't know the
horrible truth behind it.

[Sighs sadly]

I'm so sorry. Because the
weapons that I created for you

became the source of so much
hardship and pain for all three of you.

That just isn't true.

Those were weapons that you
risked your life to make for us, Presea.

So it can't be true.

Presea, and all the others who
lost their lives, have been resurrected.

But I'm afraid this miracle
will happen only once.

At this time, we have
no Pillar in Cephiro.

Those who pass away before the birth
of a new Pillar will not be resurrected.

Furthermore, we don't
know if the new Pillar

will wish to revive
those who died in battle.

It's not necessary for one to be
from Cephiro to become the Pillar.

- Huh?
- What'd you say?

To become the Pillar of Cephiro
there is only one condition,

and that is to have the strongest
heart of all those on this planet.

That means that
someone from one of those

invading armies could
become the Pillar as well.

Now I get it. They must have noticed
that Cephiro has started to crumble.

And that explains why these
armies are starting to invade Cephiro.

By becoming the Pillar they can control
Cephiro and do whatever they want.

So what in the world can
we do to help protect Cephiro?

The only way must be to find a new Pillar.
One that prays for peace in Cephiro.

That is correct, Fuu.

While protecting Cephiro from the outside
invaders, we must find a new Pillar.

Only that will lead
Cephiro to peace.

And we must do this
as quickly as possible.

Presea, please lend
us some new weapons.

I'm gonna fight to help
protect Cephiro from anything.

Mm-hmm.

Yes, Presea.
Please lend us some weapons.

We wish to join
in the fight as well.

[Magic ripples]

Aren't these swords the
ones that we used to have?

That's right. These are the
weapons that evolved with you.

They are the weapons made only for the
Magic Knights, that only you may use.

And just as before, if you
ever have reason to need them,

simply wish for them, and they will
immediately appear in your hands.

If we simply wish for them.

[Magic hums] What? What is it?

The gems started glowing!

Hey, what's happening!?

[Startled shouts]

Hikaru!

Umi! Fuu!

[Frightened shouts]

[Heartbeat thumps]
[Magic gleams]

Magic Knights.

The three Magic Knights,
summoned here from another world.

Someone is calling us.

Yes, I know that voice.

It must be the Rune Gods.

Legendary Magic Knights.

Rayearth!

Selece!

Windam!

Magic Knights summoned
from another world.

Thou hast been conveyed hither
to deliver Cephiro from this crisis.

Will thou now don us and
go forth into battle once more?

I will fight!

This time I know what
I'm getting myself into!

I choose to fight
of my own free will!

The three of us
will fight for Cephiro!

[Magic hums]

Long have we waited for the
coming of the time to save Cephiro.

Magic Knights, thou hast proven
unto us the strength of thine hearts.

Therefore don us now,
and fight for Cephiro!

[Magic ripples]

Wh-where are we!?

We are now above the castle.

Gosh, when in the
world did that happen?

Thou hast been in another dimension.
One in which we sleep.

Dimension?

We exist in this
other dimension.

When thou hast need of
us, call unto us by name.

Certain thou may be that we
will present ourselves before thee.

Always.

Wow. Thank you!

[Thrusters whoosh]

How far are we gonna fly?

Beyond the sky.

But does anything
exist beyond the sky?

There is a battleship from another
country far above the skies of Cephiro.

Battleship!?

[Thunder booms]

[Alarms blare]

Hey Eagle! This is somethin'...

[Console beeps] What is it, Geo?

A couple of weird objects
just appeared right in front of us.

Oh yeah?
What kind of weird objects?

Hang on, I'll put 'em on the
screen for ya. You can take a look.

[Display blips]

Wow! Look at the giant robots!

How cool!
Those things are totally awesome!

I wonder if they transform!

Ah, must be that mechanic's
curiosity in you, huh Zazu?

Well, doesn't it also make
you curious as a fighter, Geo?

Those are the Legendary
Rune Gods of Cephiro.

So those are the Rune Gods.

Then that means the Magic
Knights are inside them?

Zazu, prepare to launch
my FTO right away.

What!? That thing!?

What are you plannin' to do?

I will go and greet the Legendary
Magic Knights, of course.

Wha-!? Why would the highest commander
of this ship go in alone, head first?

[Chuckles] Since I am commander of this
ship, I need to show the proper respect,

to these Magic Knights,
who saved Cephiro in its crisis.

[Thunder booms]

That must be it!

[Steam hisses]

[Engines whir]

[Displays hum]

FTO. Go.

[Jet thrusters hum, whoosh]

Watch out!

[Flames whoosh]

It's coming fast!

[Mechanical click, laser hum]

[Alarmed shouts]

Ugh!

- Hikaru!
- Miss Hikaru!

[Energy crackles]

I am the high commander of
this mission to invade Cephiro.

I am Eagle Vision of Autozam.

I am...

I am Hikaru Shidou!

So you're the great and powerful
awe inspiring Legendary Magic Knights.

[Battle shouts]

I promise, I will
defend Cephiro!

Who is it today?

Today it is Miss Umi!

Hey everyone! Did you guess right?
I'll see ya later!
