Magic Knight Rayearth (1994–1995): Season 2, Episode 26 - Hikaru-Shogeki! Nova no Shinjitsu - full transcript
I, Hikaru Shidou, along with
my best friends Umi and Fuu,
was summoned once again to
the alternate world called Cephiro.
This world had lost their
Pillar, Princess Emeraude,
and was in danger of
complete destruction.
Chizeta, one of the invading
countries, finally retreated.
And then Aska, the
princess of Fahren, also
declared that she
would call off the invasion.
We were all bursting
with happiness.
But then, Nova
appeared inside the castle
again, and this time
she kidnapped Lantis.
What're you going to do Hikaru
if you're the one who's the Pillar?
And Clef told me
the truth about Nova,
that she was someone
that my heart created.
Hi...karu...
[Insane laughter]
Hikaru's Discovery!
The Shocking Truth About Nova!
[Strained panting]
[Menacing growl]
[Strained shout]
[Booming explosion]
- [Menacing growl]
- [Shocked gasp]
[Loud roar]
[Blades clash] [Strained groans]
[Pained shout]
[Pained gasps]
[Startled gasps]
[Strained gasps] [Blades clang]
[Pained yell, gasps]
[Determined grunt]
Flame Arrow! Hyah!
[Flames whoosh] [Pained roar]
What could I do?
- Hikaru!
- [Startled gasp]
Clef! It's Lantis!
Something's happened to him!
I've been following Lantis' consciousness,
but I don't know where he is!
He's been hurt! I can feel it!
Blood! There was so
much of it everywhere!
Nova! Nova was there!
Calm down, Hikaru.
If you don't stay in control,
Nova will become even stronger.
[Startled gasp]
I'm sure I heard somethin' that
sounded like an explosion around here.
I wonder what happened?
Try to keep up
with us, Lady Aska!
You heard it too, right Fuu?
I did.
Her scream! I heard
it inside my heart!
It seemed that Miss
Hikaru was crying!
[Magic hums]
[Startled gasps]
[Menacing growl]
Stand back! I'll handle it!
Water Dragon!
[Water rushes]
[Heavy thud]
It's wounds are
regenerating, Umi!
[Rubbery wriggle]
[Startled gasps]
[Menacing growl]
Emerald Typhoon!
[Determined grunts]
[Magic ripples]
[Battle shout]
[Startled gasp]
- Above you!
- Huh?
- [Menacing growl]
- [Startled shout]
Huh!?
Ferio!
Hmph!
[body ripples]
[Alarmed gasp]
[Magic hums] Hah!
Miss Aska!
- Hmph!
- [Startled shout]
[Magic hums]
[Magic hums, ripples]
[Battle shout]
[Battle shout]
Sapphire Whirlwind!
[Water rushes]
I can't lose to this thing!
We all finally
understand each other!
[Anxious whimpers]
[Battle shouts]
[Magic whooshes]
[Booming explosion]
[Strained shouts]
[Battle shout]
[Booming explosions]
[Pained shouts]
Tarta! Tatra!
[Frightened gasps, shouts]
Look out!
[Pained groans]
- Ferio!
- [Shocked gasp]
Because we want to protect
the people that we love...
...that is why we
are all fighting.
There is no way...
...we're going to lose!
[Magic whooshes, hums]
Emerald Cyclone!
[Wind whooshes]
Icicle Blades!
[Icicles chime]
[Booming explosions]
Alright!
- You did it!
- That was a close call, wasn't it?
But I knew Fuu
would be able to beat it!
Miss Umi! You have a new spell!
And so do you!
[Magic chimes] [Startled gasps]
[Echoing] No! It can't be!
Miss Hikaru!
What's the matter? Hikaru!
That's impossible. It can't be!
[Smoke hisses]
That girl who calls herself
Nova is the shadow of your heart.
- [Menacing growl]
- [Startled gasp] Huh!?
[Menacing growl]
[Strained grunts] [Blades clash]
When we went back home, I
kept screaming inside my heart.
That this can't be true!
That it couldn't be true!
[Startled gasp]
[Menacing growl]
[Energy crackles]
[Pained shout]
But I couldn't say it.
If I said it, I felt as if my
heart would just shatter!
I'm sure Umi and Fuu
felt the same way, too.
But Princess Emeraude
was finally free!
[Magic hums] [Determined grunt]
[Booming explosion]
That's why I couldn't say it.
Yes! And that scream within
your heart, became a strong light,
and burned a shadow
here in Cephiro.
That's Nova?
Yes. Nova is your shadow.
A piece of your heart!
[Smoke hisses]
Regret, sadness, and the
frustration directed at yourself.
Every part of that was burned
onto Cephiro in that one instant.
Back then during that battle, when
we fought her, I was so confused
because I had to fight Princess
Emeraude to save Cephiro,
and all she did
was fall in love…
And because you
hate yourself so much…
That's the reason
why I love you, Hikaru.
That's why…
Nova said she loved me back then…
It's because…
...I couldn't forgive myself for doing
what I did to Princess Emeraude.
Hikaru…
Nova is my heart...
Then the one who hurt Lantis…
…had to be me…
[Startled gasp]
[Menacing roar]
[Anguished shout]
[Pained roar]
[Booming explosion]
[Startled gasp]
What's the matter, Nova?
It's my heart,
Mother... It hurts…
It's probably that Magic
Knight's heart flooding into you.
This man that you have
captured, my dear daughter...
He possesses a heart so
strong it's almost frightening.
It will be quite useful. I plan to use
this fearful strength to my advantage.
[Evil chuckle]
I can feel you crying, Hikaru.
You're crying because
you're thinking about Lantis.
It feels so strange.
My heart hurts…
My heart...
[Door whirs open]
[Surprised gasp]
Hikaru.
You're hurt!
[Barrier ripples]
Hikaru...
I'm so sorry...
- Huh?
- It's Lantis.
Because of me,
he was hurt badly.
And it was because of
me that he was captured.
Lantis was captured?
Who was he captured by?
- By me.
- Huh?
- [Strained breathing]
- Master Mage Clef!
It's much too dangerous
in your condition!
- The danger doesn't matter!
- Master Mage Clef!
[Exhausted sigh]
Even my power...
[Pained breaths]
...can only tell
that Debonair...
[Strained breaths]
...is somewhere near Cephiro!
The only one who knows....
[Pained breaths]
...Is Alcyone!
Presea! We have to
find out from her or else…
Or else... once again
I will be responsible
for the sorrow those
young girls will feel.
[Giggles]
That girl… is your
heart, Hikaru?
Eagle… I heard you
were Lantis' friend…
That's why...
I have to apologize...
Apologize? But why
did you come to me?
Do I have to remind you
that I'm the commander of
the Autozam fleet that's
here to invade Cephiro?
What made you decide
to come here all alone?
I wanted to apologize… to the
person who really loves Lantis.
I thought that you really cared
for Lantis, Eagle… So I came here…
[Cries softly]
If I tried to comfort you
right now, I hope that
the people who love
you won't think it's a trick.
[Cries softly]
[Sobs miserably]
I'm so sorry!
I know I'm your enemy, but I
just can't come to hate you, Eagle!
You were so kind to
me on the battleship.
How you saved Lantis
during the battle with Nova.
I just can't forget about that!
- [Sobs miserably]
- Neither can I...
Master Mage Clef. Presea.
[Thunder booms] [Deep rumbling]
[Panicked screams]
[Panicked shout]
Lantis, save me!
Huh?
Are you protecting me?
Puu! Puu!
[Giggles] It's must be
because you think I'm so cute!
[Annoyed puu-ing]
[alarmed shout]
I hope Hikaru and the
others are doing all right.
I hope they're not hurt.
They're all right, Mira! No one can
beat the legendary Magic Knights!
Mm-hmm!
I wish we could be as strong as
them so we wouldn't be scared right now.
Puu puu!
[Reassuring puus]
[Strained shouts]
Caldina!
[Panting] What's going on?
[Thunder booms]
Is the crumbling of Cephiro
reaching its final stages?
[Alarmed shouts] [Deep rumbling]
Umi!
Hold on Ascot!
[Startled gasp[
Ascot, it's hard for me to say
this, but Umi's in love with...
It's alright.
Huh?
I love Umi.
That's what my
heart honestly says.
And even if Umi doesn't love
me... even if she thinks poorly of me...
It won't matter to me. I can be
happy knowing I love her, right?
Oh, Ascot.
I'm going to look for
Umi and the others.
Alright! Give it all
you've got and go find her!
Ascot has become a fine adult.
He sure has. I'm happy but
kinda sad too. It's a weird feelin'.
Don't cry.
You'll make Lantis sad too
if you keep crying, Hikaru.
I'm sure Lantis must hate
me for doing what I did.
For doing what I
did to his brother.
I know he can't
possibly love me!
But I love him, Eagle!
I don't know why, but I do.
If you know why you love
someone, then it isn't real love at all.
Huh?
You don't know why…
…but you love him, right?
Mm-hmm.
I'm sure that the last
Pillar, Princess Emeraude,
probably thought the same
thing that you're thinking right now.
She must have asked herself...
"Why? Why have I fallen
in love with someone?"
She probably wondered why
she couldn't stop her own heart.
I'm sure that she wasn't able to
come up with an answer to that question.
But still… she fell in
love with Zagato...
Every person has feelings that they
can't control that are a part of them.
People always worry about
the feelings they can't control.
I myself have felt that if I could, I'd
like to be friends with you, my enemy.
And Lantis, too?
Lantis, too.
But I truly love Autozam.
I want to be able
to save my people.
But I...I couldn't forget of my
true wish…no matter what I did.
What do you mean "true wish"?
- [Hacking cough]
- Eagle! Eagle, what's the matter!?
Eagle!
Eagle, are you okay!?
Please don't worry, Hikaru...
But I'm sure that
it's impossible not to.
Eagle...
Alcyone, you
have got to tell us...
Where is the location of Debonair,
the being who controlled you?
[Startled gasp]
Lantis, Zagato's younger brother, was
captured by one of Debonair's people.
We have to rescue him quickly!
Lord Zagato's younger brother?
If this continues, Cephiro
will crumble completely!
So Alcyone, please
tell me where she is.
Now that it's a world without
my Lord Zagato, I no longer care.
[Startled gasp] [Thunder booms]
The man I risked
everything for... including
betraying you, my
master... is no longer here.
Why was I allowed to survive?
[Sobs miserably] Even if
he didn't return my love…
...I wanted to die with
him, at the very least.
- [Heartbroken sobs]
- Oh, poor Alcyone.
Eagle, are you sick?
Does Lantis know
anything about this?
I absolutely don't want
him... to ever know about this.
[Speechless sigh]
I don't... have any time left...
Either you or me.
One of us seems to be the
one... that can become the Pillar...
Huh?
We should... make it
clear... [Shallow breath]
I can't let Autozam
wither away as it is now.
However I'm sure you don't want Cephiro
to crumble away like this either.
Mmm...
If... I have the qualifications
to become the Pillar…
I'll stay in Cephiro...
...as the Pillar, so I can
prevent this world from crumbling.
In exchange, Hikaru I'd like you
to allow the people of Autozam
to enter this country peacefully so
that they can examine the Pillar System.
I promise... that they won't try
to invade you if you let them in.
You have my word.
[Hacking cough]
[Deep breath] And... if you
become the Pillar… [Heavy panting]
[Startled gasp]
What exactly do you plan to
do with this country, Hikaru?
[Deep rumbling]
[Thunder booms]
Who is it today?
Today it's Hikaru!
Hey everybody! Did you
guess right? I'll see ya later!
my best friends Umi and Fuu,

Who is it today?
Today it's Hikaru!
Hey everybody! Did you
