IN PREVIOUS EPISODES
[Supes] As long as the Creator exists,
the destruction will never end.
KHEIT - AKTHA
The Creator decides on everything in this world.
We are going to the Creator's world.
Maur! [screams]
[Jairo] This must be Ancient KOTOWARI.
If we kill the Creator, we will survive!
[Jairo] All is God.
It is the will of Pytonpyt.
[Taichi] Hana.
She's been asleep all this time.
[in Upananta] Thaim?
You… Thaim!
[lightbulb shatters]
[Supes, in Japanese] You will find and kill the Creator.
You will become a hero.
[electricity crackles]
MANAGER - SHIBATA
[lightbulb shatters]
What's going on?
Something terrible.
[Mame] What? What happened?
I…
thought I was saving Upananta.
What do you mean?
Thaim?
Follow me. I have an idea.
Dragons of Wonderhatch
Mom's hand…
used to feel much bigger.
When you were small,
you'd never let go of her hand.
Once Mom stopped coming out of that room…
I got too scared to hold it anymore.
I remember the look on her face.
So much sadness.
I'm sorry, Mom.
[Taichi] Hmm?
[Nagi, Taichi shout]
[both breathing heavily]
Who are you?
[Taichi groans]
[Taichi grunts, strains]
The Creator.
I've finally found you.
Destroy her.
[Taichi shouts]
[Supes] Hmm?
[Taichi gasps, shouts]
[Supes groans]
Iido contains what we call "anti-particles."
[Thaim] Nagi!
Thaim!
Hurry, before it's too late.
[Nagi] Dad.
[stammers]
[in Upananta] …Saila!
[Saila] It's been a long time.
[in Japanese] I have determined the cause of Upananta's collapse.
By destroying the Creator, we can alter Upananta's doomed destiny.
[Saila] What are you saying?
I've been waiting for this day
for ten years.
Upananta may be bound by fate, but now we must save our people.
So move aside, Saila.
What exactly have you done
to help Maur, or the people of Upananta?
Aren't you just going to run away again?
I never turned my back on you.
I have spent every day haunted by the deaths of Mother and Maur,
wondering hopelessly if you were dead too.
From out on the ocean.
Father,
you look terrible.
This world must be an awful place.
[explosion]
YOKOSUKA CENTRAL GENERAL HOSPITAL
AFTER-HOURS ENTRANCE
[guard gasps] Are you okay?
What happened?
[guard grunts, groans]
[guard 2] What are you doing? [grunts]
[choking]
[gasps]
[in Upananta] You came back.
I'm sorry… Guphin.
[in Japanese] Will she stay like this forever?
We went to a lot of hospitals.
They investigated countless possibilities.
But in the end,
they couldn't find a cause.
But
I'm certain she will wake up.
Even now,
I'm sure she can hear my voice.
I think it would be a good idea…
if you talked to her sometimes too.
I will.
Dad?
Yes?
You okay?
You don't look it.
I…
Everything I do goes wrong.
You really are an idiot, Thaim.
I had no idea you would betray them.
It's not like that!
Or maybe it is…
Aktha is somewhere in Sarushima.
But Aktha has changed.
Changed?
He said he doesn't care what happens to Upananta.
Why would the greatest warrior in history say that?
We'll just have to persuade him.
We were successful this time, but next time will be too much for us alone.
[Thaim] I didn't realize
that Supes was your father.
My father is serious.
He had every intention of killing Hana earlier.
The only one who can beat him is Aktha.
[Taichi] We'll take the boat.
I heard from Nagi.
We can use it to get to Sarushima.
What happened at the hospital…
I still don't understand any of it.
But if it will help my family,
I'll do anything.
[Saila] Father,
you look terrible.
This world must be an awful place.
[Supes panting]
LET'S GO - YOKOSUKA
[Mame] Hurry up, Thaim.
What is it?
[breathes shakily]
Nagi…
I'm sorry.
Supes said he was going to save Upananta.
I told him where you mom was.
You did?
[Thaim] Please forgive me.
But you didn't know what he was going to do, did you?
It's not your fault.
Actually--
Maybe you did know?
He told me it was the only way to save the people of Upananta.
I…
don't know what's right anymore.
[Mame] What excuse is that?
You were going to sacrifice Nagi's mom.
You sicken me.
Nagi?
Back when I thought Maur was losing his mind,
my father and I never listened. We just ignored him.
It was Maur's loneliness that led to his death.
Even if it's painful, what you do after you fail is the most important.
I realize that now.
Aktha is in Sarushima.
There's no time for shame.
[Taichi] We're going!
[chair creaks]
[rumbling]
[gasps]
[rumbling]
[gasps]
Is it an earthquake?
-[Mame] A huge one! -[Thaim gasps]
[Mame] Wait, aren't we--
[shouts] Are we floating?
[gasps]
[Taichi] Unbelievable.
It's just as if we were swept up into someone's dream.
[Saila] If the island is floating,
does that mean this world has KOTOWARI too?
[Thaim] It's the Iido.
Iido thrives in the oceans of this world.
Really?
Intriguing.
Aktha…
what are you thinking?
What are you doing here?
Upananta's last hero, Aktha.
I'm Saila.
Daughter of Supes, the hero.
I'm researching the Outside of KOTOWARI.
So you really did become a coward.
[Aktha] Your Japanese is good.
It's been a long time
since I heard a smooth voice that rings clearly.
So I see that woman is in a lot of trouble.
And what about your father, Supes?
Will you kill him?
If it becomes unavoidable.
How complicated.
Please, Aktha.
You have to help save my mother.
Let's say I save your mother's life.
You will approve of my actions,
but there are those out there who won't, whether you're right or not.
That's what this world is like.
Can't you just support what is right?
Why won't you protect those who are weaker than you?
[Aktha] Enough.
That's exactly what I've done.
It's just that you people choose to deny it.
I thought there might still be something I could do to help.
This is the result.
I found people who understand me…
even if there are only a few.
I intend to pour all of my energy into protecting them.
That's where happiness lies.
I will chase out anyone who comes here for the wrong reasons.
That's all.
[Taichi] Well,
we understand your situation.
I'm sorry to ask,
but could we take shelter here?
These children haven't had a moment of sleep since last night.
The huts over there are empty.
You may use them if you like.
Thank you.
[Kanna] Morning.
Another visitor?
[Aktha] Good morning.
Yes, this is Saila.
She won't be here long.
-Hello. -[Kanna] Hello there.
Hey, where is everyone?
They went to see the edge.
[resident] What on earth? How is this possible?
-[resident 2] We're floating. -[resident 3] How?
[resident 2] What we gonna do? I don't believe it.
-[resident 3] Aktha. -[resident] Aktha!
This is a total disaster!
This is not normal.
We're floating!
We're grateful for everything you've done for us,
but this is too much!
[resident 3] How do we get home?
[Aktha] Our home is here.
[resident 3 scoffs]
We didn't want it to go this far.
We just wanted to live peacefully.
Living in the sky is not very convenient!
There's no reception, for one thing.
Are you okay?
Tell him, Kanna!
Tell him to put the island back.
Aktha tends to make extreme assumptions,
and it makes me laugh how foolish he can be.
But somehow, I find myself admiring his way of life.
That's why I'm with Aktha.
I'm sorry.
Aktha is preparing a way to leave.
I want to stay.
Aktha has always been sensitive to my opinions.
That has saved me many times.
[resident 5] Me too.
It's just like a dream here.
-Living on a floating island. -[chuckling]
[Kanna] Thank you.
[resident] Aktha,
-this is no good for me. -[resident 6] What?
-[resident 5] Hey! -[resident 2] Let's go.
-[resident 7] Hey, where are you going? -[resident 5] Why?
-Why are you going? -[resident 7] Wait!
To repeat,
an unbelievable sight has appeared in the skies above Yokosuka.
LIVE BROADCAST - SARUSHIMA FLOATS - EXTREME CAUTION
An island-- Sarushima is floating.
What could this possibly mean?
Sarushima has risen into the sky and remains there now…
[in Upananta] What's that achieve, Aktha?
-[scoffs] -[laughing]
He's such a fool.
A total fool.
What is the idiot thinking of?
Does he think he's in Upananta?
The poor guy needs to get a grip on reality.
[reporter continues talking in Japanese]
[dog, in Upananta] Listen up.
They're in Sarushima.
…I see.
So Saila and her entourage are there too.
Come on.
This time
I'm going to blast the Creator out of the sky.
[reporter, in Japanese] All services in the Tokyo Bay area
have been temporarily suspended.
To repeat,
an unbelievable sight has appeared in the skies…
[Taichi] Nagi took hold of my hand.
Back in the hospital.
It's been years…
She grasped my hand so tightly.
At that moment…
I remembered these hands of yours.
It's been so long
since the three of us were together.
[chuckles]
I wish the three of us could be together a little longer.
I guess in these circumstances, it's stupid of me to hope for that.
[chuckles]
[Kanna] I've been doing some thinking.
With the fruit that we've grown here,
we could distill our own alcohol.
I found the perfect spot for it, want to go and look?
[residents] Ooh!
But we can't make the rice wine you love.
That's too difficult.
I see.
[Thaim, in Upananta] Thank you for staying by my side.
[Saila, in Japanese] You put Iido in here.
Pharosi coral.
Upananta seawater.
Never shake it.
What are you making?
We need a weapon.
Look, Nagi.
-[Nagi] It's beautiful. -Here.
[Saila] Are you coming to join us?
[Thaim] What?
Can I?
[Saila] Look.
Actually, I'm good.
Sorry.
Mind if I come back in a bit?
Fine.
Nagi?
I can't continue like this.
I want to speak to Thaim.
Properly.
Okay. Me too.
[resident 6] Aktha, once you've eaten, we'll go to that distillery place.
Sure, okay.
[thudding]
[in Upananta] What was that?
[in Japanese] Supes?
Where is the Creator?
I don't know.
Indeed.
So everyone's in the settlement over there?
I always get everything I need to know from your voice.
[Thaim] Supes,
that's not the solution.
[Supes] Aren't you angry?
The Creator is designing destruction for Upananta however she pleases.
I am going to release our people from her worthless story.
But when someone dies, other people always get hurt.
-That's what happened with Maur-- -What do you know about Maur?
What will you do if your assumptions are wrong?
I'm not mistaken about this.
If nothing happens when we kill her,
then I guess the daughter has inherited the same power.
[gasps]
[grunts] I won't let you do that!
Anyone who hurts Nagi is my enemy!
-[Thaim grunts] -[gasps]
[Thaim grunts]
[grunts]
[groans]
[grunts, pants]
How unfortunate.
You're the weakest dragonrider I know.
[in Upananta] Dammit!!
You bastard!!
[grunts]
[groans, gasps]
[Supes, in Japanese] Why, Thaim?
Didn't you say you'd do whatever it takes to save Upananta?
You're wrong.
[coughing]
[gasps, grunts]
I want to save Upananta too.
With all my heart!
Then trust me.
No!
[grunting, panting]
I…
will protect both worlds!
[Thaim grunts, groans]
[Thaim grunts]
How?
I don't know.
But
I can't bear to see Nagi hurting anymore!
[whispers] Thaim.
[whispers] I'll go and call Saila and the others.
Don't move from this spot.
[Thaim shouts]
[grunting, groaning]
[grunts]
[coughs]
[gasps]
[grunting, groaning]
What a strange boy.
[Nagi] Stop it!
[Thaim coughs]
Please, stop it.
[groans] Nagi.
[coughs]
[dragonriders grunt]
[coughing]
Saila!
Don't stand in my way!
Nagi, get Thaim and run quickly!
[Supes, in Upananta] I won't let you stop me!
[dragonriders groaning, coughing]
[in Japanese] Thaim! Are you okay?
This way.
[coughing, groaning]
[Taichi] Nagi! Quickly!
[coughing, choking]
[panting]
-[Thaim groans] -[Nagi] Are you okay?
[Thaim groans] I'm fine.
More or less.
I can move it a little bit.
[Nagi] Thaim…
I'm sorry.
[Thaim] It's me who was wrong.
Really.
I'm sorry to you both.
[Mame] Thaim…
[Thaim] But…
an apology isn't enough.
It's useless to keep being a failure to those around me.
I can only try to make up for it from now on.
Song.
Nagi.
Thank you.
I'm so grateful.
I was so lucky to meet you.
[Mame] I was lucky too.
Even now, it feels like I'm in a dream.
But it's also the first time I really feel alive.
[Nagi] What's that mean?
-Which one is it? [laughs] -[Mame chuckles]
Oops.
[Thaim laughs, groans]
[groans] Here goes…
-Let's go. -Yep.
We need to find somewhere safe for Nagi's mom.
Let's go and find Aktha.
But will he really help us?
[Taichi] Run!
Go!
I've found you.
The Creator.
That guy-- We're done for.
Hurry.
[Saila grunts]
[grunting, groaning]
[Supes] This is where it all ends.
Upananta will be saved.
[Thaim groans]
[gasps]
[gasping]
[whimpering]
[mouthing word] Nagi!
