There's stardust over our heads Zujyou ni wa hoshikuzu
They fall into a bottomless pit Ochiru wa naraku no soko
When the curtain opens, it is the dark Makuakishi ankoku
Grand Guignol GURANGINYORU
Thanatos and Eros... TANATOSU to EROSU ga
Take one another's hands and dance in circles Te wo tori odorimeguru?
A carnival of desire Yokubou no KARUNABARU
Everyone is in the crowd Daremo ga mure no naka
Being lost in solitude Kodoku ni fukeri
And seeing forbidden dreams lkenai yume wo miru
While it has now been deserted, lma wa haioku
In the pleasure hall of the golden tower, Ougontou no yuugijyou de
Reminiscing sweet memories Amaki tsuioku
And searching from deep inside your mind for them Dokuro no ganka ni saguru
The rusted short sword Sabitsuku tanken wo
Is picked up and pointed toward my chest Hiroiage kono mune ni
And every time it is held up over my head Mukete kazasu tabi
The red blood Akaki chi ga
Seethes from the pain of living lkiru itami ni tagiru
A gorgeous paradise Gokusai no rakuen
A dictator's garden Dokusaisya no teien
A moment lasts 1001 nights Toki wa issen'ichiya
In the capital of evil Ma no miyako
Within the grotesque city, GUROTESUKU na machi ni
You're a sleeping princess Nemureru kimi wa oujyo
The sacrifice of a young girl Shoujyo SAKURIFAISU
Is made with transparent wings Toumei na tsubasa de
The innocent soul Muku naru tamashii
Welcomes the daybreak Reimei wo mukaeyo
Anyway, why are we going through the trouble of walking around in the cities?
Say, Layla. Why?
It's starting to become visible. That's it.
Jupiter City... The mayor of this place is one of the Original Dozen.
There's no way you don't know about that, right?
He's one of the elite, one of the twelve survivors...
...of the first Martian Colonization Team.
He's rumored to not age, nor even get old, just like Volk and Vesta.
In addition, the mayor was a delegate gladiator, just like Volk...
Just like... Volk...
Lord Jupiter.
There's a call from Lord Volk.
What? From Volk?
Long time, no see.
Volk. Is there some issue requiring immediate attention?
That's a good guess, Jupiter.
I've known you for a long time.
Layla Ashley.
Do you know of such a female Barbaroi gladiator who has a doll with her?
Layla. A woman?
She should be right under your nose about now.
What do you want me to do about this?
How time flies.
It's nearly time for the delegate gladiator tournament.
Volk, are you fully ready?
If I ignore the fact you, the mayor of Jupiter City,
is the delegate gladiator, then yes.
If possible, I recommend choosing a different gladiator as a delegate.
A domed city's life line depends on winning or losing the gladiator tournament.
I can't leave that to someone else.
Even if you're the opponent who must be fought.
I'm looking forward to it, Jupiter.
Extremely urgent. Seek out Layla Ashley and bring her here.
Yes, sir!
Lord Jupiter, there's no need to take unnecessary risks...
...before the delegate gladiator tournament.
Risk?
That Layla woman...
She may be an assassin sent from Volk's camp.
What are you worried about?
Among all the combatants, you're the only one of the Original Dozen.
It may be a plot to eliminate you.
This city needs you, Lord Jupiter. We can't afford to lose you...
He's not that kind of a man.
Io, honor is paramount to a delegate gladiator.
Lord Jupiter...
All right. Food supply, secured.
I asked Jupiter to take care of the issue at hand.
It's just a matter of time.
All who remain of the Original Dozen are myself, you, and Jupiter.
Yes... You're right.
Layla Ashley. That name seems to have been...
...on the crew list of the ship in question.
If that's her real name, then she's the spirit of one who is dead.
You intend to again kill a person you've killed once before?
I won't hesitate. I have no regrets.
With him, there shouldn't be any blunders.
Hey, hey. This is...
This doesn't look good, Layla. They're city officials.
You're Ms. Layla Ashley, correct?
What's the meaning of this?
There was a call from Lord Volk to our mayor, Lord Jupiter.
He informed us to extend some courteous hospitality to you, as a Gladiator.
Will you accompany us?
Wow...
The mayor is welcoming us in person?
He will be arriving shortly. Just wait.
Welcome to Jupiter City.
So, you're Jupiter.
Indeed. It's an honor to meet you, Layla Ashley.
Lord Jupiter is initiating an official gladiator battle.
You're this city's mayor, aren't you?
The delegate gladiator who decides the redistribution of...
...natural resources should actually be the mayor.
Isn't that right?
Layla, if you defeat me, you'll have absolute power in this city.
However, if I win, I'll take all the assets you possess.
Original Dozen...
This is an official gladiator battle sanctioned by the mayor of Jupiter City.
Rule: The use of weapons...
...other than approved equipment is not allowed.
Rule: The battle will continue...
...until one combatant is completely unable to fight.
Rule: The loser must hand over...
...all ownership of rights and assets to the winner.
That is all.
This is his battle arena.
Ms. Layla...
Don't worry.
Layla, don't forget that he's one of the Original Dozen.
Just like Volk.
Sorry, Volk.
I'll see for myself the true identity of this "ghost" before you do.
These body movements... Her footwork...
They're not Martian!
Earth techniques... That's right.
Only we of the Original Dozen would know about them now!
Where did you learn those martial arts?
Who taught you?!
Could it have been...?!
Volk.
Layla! Damn, what power...
Was it Volk?
Volk...
Try and kill me.
Interesting. She certainly may be a ghost, Volk.
Can you kill me, Volk?
Volk?!
Is it possible? You really are...?!
Are you...? Are you...?
You bear them?
The numerous souls of the dead...
Our sins...
I see.
That man... He is the child of the moon. And...
In that case!
Weren't you going to beat me?
Lord Volk, is something wrong?
No, it's nothing.
You did it, Layla! It's decided!
That can't be. Lord Jupiter...!
There's no way you could lose... Isn't that right, Lord Jupiter?
This has to be some kind of mistake.
If you die, then I...!
Layla!
We can't lose to you.
Try and kill me.
Why?
Why, Lord Jupiter?
Lo, you should have realized... The match was already over.
I know. I... I only...
Io.
The gladiator battle is the ultimate system which directs Martian society.
The rules must be strict.
This, too, is fate...
Don't taint the gladiator battle, lo...
I...
You did nothing.
You didn't do anything.
I was merely beaten by her in the gladiator battle.
Give everything to her. Understood?
I appreciate it, lo...
Aren't the Original Dozen supposed to be immortal?
Ms. Layla!
By the official gladiator battle rules,
absolute power in this city will be transferred to you,
so we'd like you to take care of the formalities.
Layla City... Doesn't sound bad at all.
Now we can say goodbye to sleeping outdoors, right?
H... Hey. Wait.
And? The secretary, lo. What about her?
She was disposed of.
Disposed of?
Yes. Well, we'll be carrying out the responsibilities of the mayor now.
We look forward to working with you.
I see.
Jupiter City's... finished already, huh?
Jupiter...
That woman, lo...
She must have loved Jupiter.
It was just a duel to the death.
Using a microscope, KEMIKARU SUKOOPU de
I peeked into it until morning Nozoite asamade
There are no taboos TABUU nado nai

Loving it from an anatomical standpoint ANATOMIKKU ni aishite
The city is a gigantic Tokai wa kyodaina
