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
Moonlight...
That means the last fuse has been lit.
Soon, this red planet will rip itself open.
She'll be quite a detonator... Layla Ashley.
Shouldn't you go a little slower?
No. If we go any slower, it'll shake even harder.
I see. Sorry.
Hey, hey! No getting discouraged!
We"re about to pick a fight with Volk. If you're like that...
Well, it doesn't look like they're going to blow you up, but...
This atmosphere's getting a bit testy.
The conversion of the shuttles has been completed.
Every rocket is also standing by at launch stage 3.
The embers on the moon should be waking up, as well.
If it's determined the environmental changes...
from the moon's attacks have cooled off,
that must mean the cold sleep resurrection process...
...is proceeding as well.
They'd be much happier to stay as is and die in their sleep.
We can't allow them to wake from their sleep.
Mars can't afford any more suffering!
Those on the moon must be suffering as well.
Both our peoples have lost the mother planet called Earth.
We can't die with them.
As the one responsible for Mars,
I won't make the people of Mars choose a journey of death.
That's the path I started on the day I shot that ship down.
But I see some slight hope here.
Our despair will give rise to an attack from the moon.
The moon's awakening will summon a war and erase that hope.
Layla Ashley has arrived.
Hope must be held in the palms of our hands.
Welcome to the capital of Mars: Volk City.
Volk...
So, he's Volk...
It's the first time I've seen him in the flesh, but he's...
While delegate gladiator battle is usually held within the dome city limits,
this one will take on a different form.
The fact you came here must mean...
...you understand the following already, but... Lord Volk?
Layla Ashley.
If you win, I will hand over to you everything I own.
If I win, I'll take everything you own.
Understood.
Revenge will never bear any fruit.
Find the real meaning for your journey.
Aim!
Fire!
Is that all your possessions?
I'm a possession, too?
This man is a witness.
That's all right, Layla.
Having come this far, we'll share the same fate.
Look after Nei.
Those are Volk's entire assets?
These are Lord Volk's orb, indicating his position...
...as supreme ruler of Mars, and his cape.
Are you serious? This is a formal delegate gladiator battle.
Volk seriously intends to kill Layla...
Back at Jupiter City, and even against that Cross guy,
Layla didn't kill them herself.
On the other hand, that time with Lady Vesta,
she was being played with. An Original Dozen must be!
Layla, can you win?
If you lose, you'll be killed.
Nei will... probably be allowed to live, though.
Experimental animals aren't allowed to die, even if they want to.
Volk already killed me once...
Now, it's my turn.
Vesta, please act as witness.
Understood.
Now, take that child to the top of the platform.
It's all right.
You must definitely win.
I know you can do it.
The person who taught you how to survive on this soil,
the man called Cross,
was one of the Original Dozen, just like us.
Volk shared his blood with him, his elder bother.
That can't be. That guy was!
That has nothing... to do with this.
Try and kill me.
I am a murderer.
Behind me are the people of Mars.
To protect their lives,
I shot down the ship you and your people were on.
I have no regrets.
Layla Ashley. How many people have you killed so far?
You murdering Barbaroi!
Why, you Barbaroi!
How many lives have you taken and what have you achieved?
I'll kill you. I'll give you certain death.
My heart...
Kill the weak emotions known as pity, Volk.
Layla Ashley... A child from the moon.
And the thorn which protects the Child of Destiny.
If you're a thorn, then you'll just be clipped.
Why did you save me?
Now, Layla. Why do you help Nei?
Find the real meaning for your journey.
The real meaning...
It's now...
...Nei.
Demon God Volk. Instant Death Volk.
In the delegate gladiator battles so far,
no opponent lasted three minutes before being defeated.
How about you, Layla Ashley?
What will you, the one who beat me, show me?
This is!
Vesta!
Layla...
Lay... la...
Nei!
Nei...
Still getting up?
Child of the moon,
you would have been happier if you shared that ship's fate.
The man who saved this child and Layla...
That guy named Cross?
What were his last moments like?
He fought against Layla and died.
But...
He was a great man.
Thank you. That's all I needed to hear.
Among us in the Original Dozen, he was the only one...
...who opposed shooting down the harbinger ship until the very end.
This is for you.
He saved Layla, helped the Barbaroi,
and said the people should plant themselves onto this red soil.
Then left us and the dome.
Volk and Cross...
The brothers who influenced Layla and Nei's paths...
Those movements. That style...
I've trained with him since we were on Earth, but...
So, it was Cross.
But she's still young.
Too young.
In a few years, she'd have been a match for me.
But here and now is where I shall bury her!
Nei! Just wait! Layla's about to kick Volk's ass!
Shit, of all the luck...
Nei. Your eyes!
Could it be?
No... After all...
The moon. And the child of the moon.
You may have overcome death,
but those standing in our way will all be buried.
Once more, I am the fang which protects the people of Mars.
Is this an earthquake? No...
Using a microscope, KEMIKARU SUKOOPU de
I peeked into it until morning Nozoite asamade
There are no taboos TABUU nado nai
I can do as I please Oki ni mesumama
Loving it from an anatomical standpoint ANATOMIKKU ni aishite
The city is a gigantic Tokai wa kyodaina
Place to run experiments Jikkenjyou nano
Once you're no longer necessary Fuyou ni nareba
You'll immediately be erased Suguni kesareru
Hurridly living passionately Jyounetsu ni iki isoide
There's the Garden of Eden in the basement Chikashitsu ni EDEN no sono
The happiness you fight over is an illusion Ubaiau koufuku wa maboroshi
The Eve of tomorrow Mirai no IVU
Born from MEFISUTOFERESU no
A bone of Mephistopheles Hone kara umareta
To the androids who are incapable of crying Namidamo nai ANDOROIDO no
You are the goddess of depravity Daraku no megami yo
I'll take your apple and Anata no ringo
Lick it, bite into it, Namesasete kajirasete
And soak in the taste of sin Fukumasete tsumi no aji wo
