No!
I didn't know... I didn't know he had the mask.
I didn't see him lay the Red Stone into the mask!
Dear God...
Kars...
EPISODE 25: "THE BIRTH OF A SUPERBEING"
He stood up!
Stand your ground! German soldiers cower to no one!
The ultimate being?
Foolishness! Nothing can ever achieve perfection!
Kars...
Look! His arm! His wound from the Hamon is still smoking!
It's spreading to the rest of his body!
The Hamon will melt him away!
He may've laid the Red Stone into the mask,
but he's no different from before!
He'll croak just the same!
Re-engage the UV amplifiers!
We'll finish him for good this time!
-Hurry it up! -Sir!
What's gotten into him?
What is Kars looking at?
No!
Look! Look at what he's doing!
What in the hell?
Am I seeing things?
I could've sworn his hand turned into a squirrel!
It's actually kind of cute!
Look out!
It's dangerous! Stay away from that squirrel!
The squirrel!
Get out of here! Hurry!
Incredible! He can manipulate any life form!
We made it!
It's finally daybreak!
The vampires...
The sunlight will take care of Kars.
We're saved!
No! Kars is...
He's turned his back to the sun...
It's as if he's basking in the light!
This is a disaster! It can't be!
We're doomed!
The ultimate being combines the abilities of all life forms,
connecting all life into one.
But this...
It's magnificent! Such radiance!
It's more exquisite than anything I've ever witnessed.
Finally the sun!
I have finally conquered the sun!
He's invincible!
He has no weaknesses! Hamon will be useless against him!
He's immortal! He's unstoppable! No one will be able to defeat him!
He is the perfect weapon! Kars, the ultimate being, is alive!
This is all my fault.
I allowed him to put on the mask with the Red Stone.
Is... Is there no way to stop him?
Are we really destined to become nothing more than his sustenance?
No, I have a plan.
What was that, JoJo?
Hold her. Yeah...
I have one last plan.
A final plan?
Yeah, I've got one last trick up my sleeve.
One last trick?
JoJo, you don't mean...
Listen up! Do it till you can't breathe!
Till I can't breathe? What do you mean?
Run for it!
I knew it!
Hamon warriors mean nothing to me now!
But you...
I must avenge Wamuu and Esidisi,
but I must also celebrate my rebirth!
I must, JoJo...
I must murder you now!
He's catching up!
Quiet!
I'm trying to come up with something!
So keep it down!
JoJo's doing this to save Lisa Lisa and the rest of us! But...
It's useless! There's no way we can destroy Kars now!
He's coming! Hurry!
Hey, Smokey!
I know you're running as fast as you can,
but you don't seem to be getting it. Listen!
You don't have to stick with me and run like this!
He's after me!
He wants to kill me
as some rite of passage or something!
JoJo, there's something I've got to tell you!
That woman, Lisa Lisa... She's your...
He's here!
Speedwagon, is he...
Is he really the ultimate being?
Yes, the Red Stone has given him the power
to transform into the ultimate, most perfect organism!
The ultimate being is first, invincible.
Second, he does not age.
Third, he will never die.
Fourth, he has the abilities of all life forms, and outperforms them.
And his appearance is like that of a classical Greek statue.
There's no way to stop him now.
He has no weaknesses!
Humans cannot kill him! Not with Hamon, not with the sun!
JoJo!
Smokey, your stop is here!
We can talk later!
JoJo!
That won't save you.
Let's see who's stronger, Kars!
-That's... -...one of our planes!
JoJo!
His feathers are as hard as an armadillo's armor.
The oil that coats them deflects bullets.
The feathers' hardness isn't merely for defense.
They are first and foremost weapons!
He hurled those feathers out like they were knives!
This doesn't look good!
But...
The whole reason I got on this plane was to get away!
JoJo!
All he can do now is run!
Fly, JoJo! Fly!
Humanity has no other choice!
Current speed: 240 km/h.
He may be the "ultimate" and the "perfect,"
but he's still a living thing!
I'm safe for now.
There's no way he can keep up with this plane for long.
The fuel!
Two hours left.
I've got two hours to outrun him.
Fool! Does he think he can escape me for even a moment?
You'll never land safely now.
You'll never set foot on land again!
JoJo!
Do you read me? Come in, JoJo!
Hey, Uncle Speedwagon!
Oh! JoJo! That was genius grabbing that plane!
The Germans and I will do everything in our power
to get you through this!
Do you have the chart?
It's right here.
Good. Don't turn off the radio!
I'll fill you in on our plan.
What?
First, give us your current position.
JoJo, do you read me?
What's wrong? Hey!
JoJo, respond! JoJo!
Yeah, I read you.
But Uncle Speedwagon, no technique or weapon will work against Kars.
You said he was immortal.
You're right. And just as you said, running is our only hope!
Uncle Speedwagon! I've got an idea.
An idea?
JoJo! Don't do anything rash!
Just focus on escaping!
No, now's our only chance to take him!
No! Don't even think of doing something on your own!
Listen to me!
He's a perfect organism here on earth!
But earth... Earth gave him life,
maybe it can take him back!
What? Earth?
You're not making sense. How could the Earth take him back?
Magma!
The most energy-laden material on earth is magma!
I'll destroy him by knocking him into Italy's Isola di Vulcano!
No! Enough risking your life!
Leave this to the Germans and me!
He's right, JoJo! Don't be stupid!
Kars will kill you!
Sorry, the volcano's right below me.
It's now or never!
Mr. Speedwagon...
It's happening again...
Jonathan's father and then Jonathan...
then George...
All of the Joestar men led brief lives.
I don't want to lose you, too!
Stop, JoJo, please!
If not for me,
for Lisa Lisa!
Lisa Lisa is your mother!
What was that? What did you say?
What's that sound?
This is insane!
Piranhas? How the hell?
They're devouring the plane!
How'd they get in?
Kars's feathers!
They transformed!
Damn! My parachute!
Little bastards!
What now?
JoJo!
-What's wrong? Come in! -JoJo!
JoJo!
Simpleton!
That parachute might as well be a spider's web, JoJo.
You're an ensnared butterfly,
and I'm ready to savor the kill!
What?
A decoy?
Kars, I'm not going down without a fight!
I'm taking you into that volcano with me!
-JoJo! -JoJo!
Damn you!
Swine!
Granny Erina spoke of Gramps only once to me.
He saved Granny and sunk into the Atlantic
with his sworn enemy, Dio, in the process.
It kills me to upset you.
I guess the Joestar blood flows in my veins too.
Did you really think I couldn't get away
before you hit the ground?
Kars!
You're dying alone, JoJo!
What the...
Kars, this plane will be your coffin.
You!
Stroheim!
When did you get in there?
I was pretty sure you couldn't handle it alone!
Besides, it was getting cold in that pontoon!
Typical!
More importantly, time to jump, JoJo!
What? Jump?
But I already used my parachute as a decoy!
Do as I say, and jump!
JoJo, come in!
Say something! Anything!
Please respond, JoJo!
JoJo...
Stroheim... you crazy bastard.
You're even crazier than me!
I suppose a "thank you" is in order.
Looks like you made it, but what about Kars?
Did Kars take a dive into the lava?
Damn you...
NEXT EPISODE
Did you say Hamon Overdrive?
Earth impresses again!
Don't you wish to purge your fears?
JoJo!
Farewell, everyone.
