Magic Knight Rayearth (1994–1995): Season 2, Episode 5 - Hikaru to Yume no Naka no Nova - full transcript

Rayearth!

Selece!

Windam!

Hey! It looks like
those Rune Gods from the

other day are back
to see us again, huh?

Huh? Where do you see 'em?

Ugh! Lousy Rune Gods
sent my FTO to the repair dock!

[Engines whir]

- Huh?
- What is it?

What is that sound?

[Light chimes]



Hey, what's that!?

Alcyone!

[Evil cackle]

Long time no see,
Legendary Magic Knights!

She's still alive!

There's no way that middle-aged
lady's magic could hurt a Rune G---!

[Startled scream]

- Hey Umi!
- Miss Umi!

Hikaru and Nova in the Dream

[Quiet chuckle]

Finally! Haha! At last I will be able to retaliate
against those good-for-nothing Magic Knights!

[Frightened scream]

Miss Umi!

Winds of Admonishment!



[Wind whooshes]

Got her!

[Wind howls]

[Struggling grunt]

[Reassuring sigh]

[Concerned gasps]

Puu puu, puu!

Goodness! For a moment I was afraid
that Umi was going to be lost forever.

Puu puu, puu.

So Alcyone...
she's managed to survive.

I've been wonderin'
when she'd turn up.

She's sure standin'
on somethin' strange.

Ascot, darling.
Do you have any idea what that is?

I don't know.

You mean even you
can't identify that monster?

I've never seen it.

In the previous battle, there were probably
lots of new creatures that were created.

I'm not sure, but it
might be one of those.

Maybe not. Not that monster.
It just doesn't seem that way.

That creature is
not from Cephiro.

Fuu, cover Umi!

Right!

Why did you attack us, Alcyone?

Why? You know the
war is already over.

Over?

It is far from over!

The humiliation that I felt?
That will never leave me!

The treatment I received from
the one to whom I gave everything?

I will always remember that.

[Magic crackles] Astora!

[Magic booms]

[Display beeps]

Hey, look at that!

Why would a Rune God
of Cephiro be suddenly

fighting with that whacked
out bug lady over there?

I dunno.

I tell you one thing.
You won't catch me

hangin' out with any
spooky psycho woman.

- Oh yeah? Well listen to Mr. Big Shot over here.
- [Frustrated groans]

Think you're somethin' special.

Hey! Gimme a break! All I'm sayin'
is that she ain't exactly my type!

And anyway, I've seen the
kind of woman you go out with!

[Chuckles]

By the way, it seemed
to be a young girl's

voice that I heard coming
out of that Rune God.

Huh? A young girl?

Was she cute? Tell me!
How old was she? Think she's my age?

Now how am I supposed to
know if she's old enough for you?

I said I only heard her voice.

There's no way to
tell what she might look

like inside of that
thing you know, Zazu.

Hmm, I sure do hope she's cute.

You know, it'd be great if she
was a really cute girl with short hair.

And it'd be perfect if she
was just a bit shorter than I am.

You know there aren't that many girls
anywhere that are shorter than you.

If this girl happens to be a
resident of Cephiro, her age

may not be determined simply
by her outward appearance.

Even if she does look
younger than you do, Zazu, she

could still be well over
three hundred years old.

[Disgusted gurgle]

That's right.
Because Cephiro is a land of the will.

The really strong willed
people who live there are

somehow able to change the
way they look on the outside.

I remember when
Lantis told us that.

Hmm. Lantis.

Eagle.

This is Cephiro. A world of tranquility
upheld by the Pillar of the land.

A Pillar who uses
only the power of prayer

to maintain order
through each generation.

For me, I guess that Cephiro seemed like
some kind of make-believe wonderland.

I mean, I had a feeling it
existed, but everything I'd

heard about it sounded more
like some kind of fairy tale.

I don't think I honestly
ever believed that it was real.

The objective of my
mission here is to take this

country's Pillar system,
and seize control of it.

It's really not my style to
invade someone else's country,

but since the day I chose to
stand by your side long ago,

I decided that I would
never turn my back on you

no matter where you
happened to lead us, Eagle.

Geo.

You guys know how I feel.

I respect Eagle because he
flies that FTO better than anybody.

Eagle's the only guy in the universe who
can fly a fighting machine like that.

That's why I joined the NSX!

Because I knew there'd be
nothing better than to have the

honor and privilege of being
Eagle's personal mechanic.

There's no way I could
have any complaints.

Have all the repairs on the
FTO been completed, Zazu?

[Confident chuckle]

Soon, Cephiro...
you will belong to Autozam.

[Magic hums, crackles]

Arile!

[Magic crackles]

[Strained groan]

[Evil cackle]

Hah!

Water Dragon!

[Magic whooshes]

[Shocked gasp]

Hey Umi!

Umi, are you alright?

Yeah, I'm alright!

You've got some
kinda nerve, old lady!

You..!

I wanna talk to you.
Please, listen to me.

What? What's that?

Cephiro is in danger!

We must work together, or Cephiro is
going to completely disappear forever!

Lafarga, Caldina and Ascot.
They're all inside the castle.

Alcyone, listen!

I know you probably don't trust us
because... because we used to be enemies.

But please, at least stay
inside the castle with the others!

The castle is made from the
will of all the people of Cephiro.

Caldina and the
others told us about it.

There are mages,
sorcerers and summoners.

The castle was made
by the power of the

people of Cephiro
and built with their will.

You can join them, Alcyone.

[Evil chuckle]

Alcyone!

[Evil chuckle]

[Magic hums, laugh deepens]

[Startled gasps]

[Maniacal laughter]
[Magic whoosh]

[Shrill laughter]

[Startled gasp]

Gosh, what's wrong
with the old lady?

Something is surely
wrong with her!

[Insane laughter]

What fools you are. This path
leads only to despair and destruction.

Yet still you try to fight.

[Startled gasp] I've...
heard this voice.

The Pillar of
Cephiro is no more.

And for this world,
all that is left is ruin.

That voice is from my dreams!

Soon! Soon everything will die!

And then everything
will become mine!

[Shrill laughter]

Hello there, Hikaru.

Who's that!?

I am Nova.
The one who was born for you, Hikaru.

You were born for me?

Oh yes. I was born just for you.

Nova?

Soon. I'll see you very soon.

Hikaru.

[Evil laugh]

She's gone!

That voice! It doesn't seem possible
that that could have been Miss Alcyone!

Hey Hikaru!

What is it, Hikaru? Hikaru!

[Startled gasp]

Is anything the
matter, Miss Hikaru?

You suddenly look so pale.

Mm... No. It's nothing.

Hikaru?

[Gasp] Let's go!

[Thrusters whoosh]
BOTH: [Shocked gasp]

[Thrusters whoosh]

You mean somethin'
that's not from Cephiro?

So, what do you think it
could be, Master Mage Clef?

I don't know.

I'm not sure how to explain it.

Somehow it just feels different.

"It feels"?
What do you mean by that?

He's right, ya know!
That can't be something from Cephiro.

- Huh?
- Huh?

- Huh?
- Huh?

But how do you know for sure?

It's simply because I'm a fairy.

And everybody in Cephiro knows
that I'm the prettiest and the smartest.

I can tell right away if it isn't a
spirit, or a fairy, or a regular monster.

Are you saying it's a
brand new kind of creature?

Even if that thing was something new,
I'd know for sure if it was from Cephiro.

But that thing sure didn't smell
like anything from this world.

- Puu puu!
- [Frustrated groan]

I don't really care if you agree
with me or not, you big ball of fluff!

Puu puu!

Puu puu! Puu puu! Puu puu!

[Frustrated shout]
What's up with you!?

Puu-puu. Puu-puu. Puu-puu.

I don't know what you are, but you're
really starting to irritate me a lot!

Puu-puu. Puu-puu. Puu-puu.

You're sure not a fairy. You're definitely
not a beast. What the heck are ya!?

- [Excited puu-ing]
- [Startled yell]

- [Startled shouting]
- Puu puu puu puu puu puu!

Help me, Lantis!

That evil force of light
surrounding Alcyone.

What was that?

What was that aura, filled
with the poison of hatred?

Are those three really on their
way to go meet that battleship?

Yeah, that's right.

Hikaru said she wanted
to go and meet with those

who are invading us so
she can talk with them.

Talk with them?

What would she have to
talk with the invaders about?

Really, what are those little missies
thinkin' about? Those crazy Magic Knights.

[Thrusters whoosh]

Lantis, did you feel
that aura of evil earlier?

Yes, I did.

Were you able to
discern what it was?

No. I tried to trace it,
but it eluded me.

You could not trace it?

You who have powers
that equal those of your

older brother Zagato,
High Priest of Cephiro?

Remember, Master Mage Clef.
The person who

taught me and my
brother magic was you.

My magic was always
far from my brother's level.

You think too highly of me.

You possess enough
magic to equal a High Priest.

And enough swordsmanship
to become the Swordmaster.

You're the only Magic Swordsman
that we had here in Cephiro.

I must admit, I never thought
that you would ever leave Cephiro.

If the Pillar of Cephiro
had not faded away,

I never would have
returned to this land.

Does that mean you came back
on orders from those in Autozam?

Look! Something's come
out of the battleship!

That's the FTO. Manned by Eagle.

There he is!

He's not attacking us!

It might be wise for us
to suspect this is a trap.

Yes, I know.

And it's probably wishful
thinking to try to talk with them.

But, until I know for sure
what the other side's true

feelings really are, I
will not fight against them.

I agree.
I never want to fight again either,

without first knowing
what the other side's feeling.

It is inevitable that mistakes
are made sometimes.

We must reach for the truth, and be
careful, so that we have no regrets.

[Eye sensor chime]

The Legendary Rune Gods. They're
completely different from the FTO.

- Geo.
- Yes, sir.

Is the analysis of the
Rune Gods complete?

- Eagle! You won't believe this!
- Hey! Don't interrupt me!

This is outrageous!

These Rune God things;
they're not machines! They're alive!

They are alive?

[Display hums]

Nothing shows up
on the internal scanner.

I don't get a reading
on the power source!

And yet I definitely have
a positive life-form reading!

So they're alive...
[Display beeps]

Such immense creatures.
It really is just as Lantis described!

[Magic hums, whooshes]

They're just girls!

But no, we must not
attempt to judge people

from Cephiro by their
outward appearances.

My name is Hikaru Shidou.

I'm Umi Ryuuzaki.

And I am Fuu Hououji.

You said that you were
the highest commander

in charge of invading
Cephiro, didn't you?

Yes, that's true.

There is a question that
we need to ask of you.

You have a question?

What's the reason for
your invasion of Cephiro?

We truly wanna know.

And so what will you do
when you've heard my answer?

We need to know.
We don't want to fight anyone

anymore without first
knowing the whole situation.

And that's why we've come here.
To hear what you have to say.

This conversation
sounds rather funny to me.

We're honestly not
joking around at all.

Would you mind please
giving us an answer?

Let me see now...

First of all, I need to ask you exactly
what you plan to do with Cephiro?

We'll protect it.

You wish to protect it until the
new Pillar has been established?

The Pillar?

I'm not sure about that.

Before I can give you an answer, I
need to give it some more thought.

You want to give
it more thought?

I believe that Cephiro belongs
to the people of this land.

Those that determine
the future of this world

should only be the
people who live here.

What is your... I mean, what is your
country's purpose for invading this place?

I've been charged by my country to seize
control of the Pillar System itself.

Control of the Pillar System?

The Pillar of Cephiro
is an almighty power.

Nothing is impossible for the Pillar
when using the power of the will.

Autozam has decided
that it must have that power.

No... Cephiro's Pillar is not almighty.

So then, between the Magic
Knights who wish to protect Cephiro,

and the country of
Autozam and myself,

there is nothing
we have left but war.

I shall take Cephiro's Pillar System.
Soon, it will belong to Autozam.

[Frustrated gasps]

[Echoing yell]

Hey, what's that?

It appears that
someone is yelling.

Huh?

[Magic hums, ripples]

Of Cephiro there
can only one Pillar be.

No one other than me.

I am the one that shall
become the new princess.

[Cackles]

Who is it today?

Today it's Hikaru!

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