We're chasing dreams without end in a world without a guide.
These overlapping feelings pierce the beating of my heart
as the unwavering verse quietly goes on.
From far away in the sky, our shadows blur together
as our memories are recorded amid inevitability and whimsy.
Even if the whirlpools of time we pass through,
were to waste away, I'll still believe in your voice.
We're chasing dreams without end in a future without a guide.
And even if I lose my light, someday,
with the twinkling flame you lit in my heart,
these fragments of hope will change into wings
"State of Emergency"
So Chitose-san, tell me what's about to happen.
The interloper who entered the game
is turning the virtual reality country of Outo into reality.
We finally meet. You're the A-1 Demon, right?
You found me.
T- that's the A-1 Demon?!
"The Ultimate Game"
So that is the basis of the power that made the dreams come true.
That's right. Thanks to this, I am finally able to meet you.
The A-1 Demon, with the power to grant unending life...
That is Oruha-san, from Clover...
Yeah... but what is it in her that makes her the strongest Demon?
The A-1?!
She came to the café?
Yes. But I thought it was a dream...
Never mind that. Let's go to where the Doggies are.
Princess Sakura!
What?! What's going on?!
The feather's power is going wild. It's trying to make the virtual world real!
Huh?
You can't control that power completely after all, huh?
You can tell?
Yes.
After all, I know who the true owner is.
Let's go!
- Welcome to Outo! - Welcome to Outo! - Welcome to Outo!
W- what?!
Welcome to Outo! Please write your name here.
You may change the names you've been using. Yes. I accept your papers.
If you're in a hurry, you can turn in anything you have on hand into money.
Only in extreme circumstances do the Demons attack the general public.
It is quite profitable.
Welcome to Outo! Welcome! Welcome!
W- what was that?!
That was the game world. The culprit is trying to make Outo real.
What do you plan to do?
I'm going to go get the Princess's feather back.
If you wanted to meet me, you didn't have to be so high-handed.
You could have just played the game.
That is true.
If you had entered the dream capsule and become a Demon Hunter,
you would eventually have come to the point where you would fight me,
the strongest Demon.
After all, that's how the game world of Outo was built.
But, if I did that, it would have taken a lot of time, right? I don't have the time.
Where's Syaoran-kun?!
He's...
Syaoran-kun!
Let's join him!
Wait for us, Doggie!
Syaoran-kun!
Little Doggie!
Don't move!
Why?
If you are thinking about the kid... be still...
Kuro-sama... so formidable...
However, I'm in a position to object... aren't I?
When these quite promising Demon Hunters came,
I used your presence to hide my true self.
You told them that I was a Demon?
Yes, that's right.
It is true that I had met a beautiful boy who controlled Demons.
Except, the boy was not a Demon.
So that's it. Oruha-san lied to us at Clover.
Why do something so convoluted?!
In order to make the game more interesting,
she purposely gave the wrong information.
Because non-player characters cannot make detailed conversation.
Non-player characters?
What's that?
In a virtual reality game, "living beings" like us take on a different persona,
and act out a player character.
There are characters like the receptionists at City Hall,
that have definite roles from the beginning,
and are not acting out a role.
Those characters with non-acting roles are called non-player characters.
The Demons are also like that.
Now that you mention it, the kid said...
...that he couldn't sense the Demons as living things, yet they attacked.
Syaoran-kun...
And you are only acting out the role of the A-1 Demon, but live in the real world?
Yes, that's right.
Does the real you have the same persona as you do now?
No.
I heard that you are able to grant eternal life.
That is correct.
Let's end this roundabout inquiry.
Is your real name...
...Subaru?
It is not.
Actually, she, like me, is one of those who made this Park's systems.
Then, this so called "granting of eternal life" is...
In the game world, anyone who defeats her is given the reward of unending life.
That's what it means.
I see... So Seishiro-san thought that power
was the power that he was looking for.
Then, do you know anything about the twin vampires?
No, I don't.
So, I was wrong again.
I'm sorry I did not meet your expectations.
If the two aren't here, then there's no reason for me to stay longer.
Are you planning to leave already?
Yes.
Before you do, can you do something about this troublesome situation?
When I leave, the disaster will settle itself.
However, those Demons that have materialized will probably remain.
Then, not only this Park, but all of Edonis is in danger.
The Demons are the product of imagination,
so in the real world, they are impossible to defeat.
As far as that goes, there is no need to worry.
He is here, after all.
Seishiro-san...
I...
...have been traveling to find that feather.
However, it is not yours, is it, Syaoran?
No.
But...
...it is a very important item...
...to someone important to me.
Syaoran-kun!
Are you going to fight me?
You are the one who taught me how to fight.
With my current abilities, I cannot win.
I thoroughly realized that from my battles in Outo.
However, I am committed to getting the feather back.
I am still too inexperienced to use this sword.
However, without drawing it,
I have less than a one-in-ten-thousand chance of winning.
Therefore...
...I will gamble on even the slightest chance!
Did he get him?!
No.
A flaming sword?
That's perfect for you, Syaoran.
You will surely become stronger.
After experiencing varied events, much, much stronger.
Even if the truth beyond that is not what you hoped for,
that strength will be your support and guide.
Seishiro-san...
Syaoran, if this is what you are searching for,
we will surely meet again. And so...
Seishiro-san!
Until we meet again, Syaoran.
Syaoran-kun...
I feel it!
What is it you feel?
The feather disappeared, but it seems its power remains...
Everyone, look!
It's the power of the feather.
That boy and the feather disappeared,
but a small part of the power of the feather remains.
Only a small bit of the power remained,
but his crossing the dimensions caused its power to increase.
You should escape. The Demons will be active until that light fades.
You understand, don't you? Even I, who imagined them, am their enemy now.
So you should hurry and escape!
I'll do something about it!
Why do you fight?
Because the cause of this catastrophe is the feather.
I have no intention of running away!
Everybody, hurry and take refuge!
You must be joking!
We are Demon Hunters, after all. We will fight!
This is not a game! Make any mistakes, and you'll die!
We understand that fully!
We want to fight anyway!
We staked our lives fighting them. What makes you think we'd run away now?
But, Outo was...
...like a dream world, right?
But, even then, we risked our lives to fight.
Do you have the same resolution?
Anyone who doesn't stake their life on living
is not qualified to control another's life or death.
Even in a dream world.
It is as he says.
Even if we risked our lives now,
we would not be able to defeat the Demons.
Everyone, please save this Fairy Park-
no, this country of Edonis- from the threat of the Demons.
Sure, gladly.
I have no strength to fight, but I will stand beside them!
Kitty!
Sakura-san... wasn't it?
I can't put you in danger.
But...
After all, you are very important to that boy...
That boy Syaoran has become much stronger than before, hasn't he?
How do you know?
It's the song.
Song?
When the feather started to cause changes in Outo,
there existed another force of equal strength.
That was you, Sakura-san. That's why I went to meet you.
Hearing your song, I knew all the things you experienced.
That boy was a large and important part of that memory.
It is the same for you, too, isn't it?
As that boy feels for you...
...you feel for that boy.
Syaoran-kun...
That boy is truly strong, isn't he?
Even so, to think that training in virtual reality
would have that much effect in the real world...
That man, Seishiro-san, used the power of the feather and made the virtual real,
but there are many things that have no physical presence,
and yet are still real...
Like songs...
...and stories...
...and memories... of the past.
Yes.
That's right!
For us...
Even though we were in the game world,
the time we spent was real.
That we...
...met, as well. ...met, as well.
And that Kitty and I became friends.
And the promise between Doggie and me.
Syaoran-kun...
Princess...
W- what?!
He's being pulled by the power of the magical item that Seishiro-san used.
Both powers come from the same place- the Dimensional Witch.
That means...
We might have to leave this world.
Leave?
What do you mean?!
Mokona Modoki is all excited!
Little Kitty!
My name is Sakura! My real name is Sakura!
Farewell, Sakura!
Tell me your real name, too!
I'm called Syaoran! It's my real name!
Syaoran! We'll meet again, won't we?!
I don't know... but...
Yeah!
I won't give up. I'll become stronger, much stronger.
Yeah!
It ended far from your expectations again this time.
However, they did not get the feather.
I'm fully satisfied that now, I know where one of the feathers is.
The next move...
...is mine.
You know, when this town is bathed in twilight,
there will be a little seed that drops from your hand.
If you can call this trodden-down dirt a road,
does closing my eyes count as love?
If this world had been flat,
the two of us would never have met.
We were both running to keep our distance.
But now, without reducing speed,
no matter how far apart we are,
as the miracle repeats itself,
we will come face to face again.
We will come face to face again.
- Puu! - Puu! - Puu!
If your wish could be granted...
I'd go home, to the world I came from.
I'd run away, as far as I can.
Mokona would... Mokona would... not want to be separated from all of you!
Tsubasa Chronicles, episode 26, "The Last Wish"
My wish... is...
