[Then we'll start the quest]
100 years have past since the legendary Yuusha defeated Maou…
Someone somehow broke the seal of the monsters...
and the world is once again falling under the control of evil.
(Kaboi Village)
Hang in there...
Hang on. Almost there!
What happened? You just left. (Episode 1)
We are done for... Monsters are right outside the village.
Oh No!
But the village has a protection barrier stretching 7 miles....
They broke through!
That's it. That's the one who attacked us!
It's just a matter of time before the village is destroyed.
Long ago...
...in this village of Kaboi...
...there was a Yuusha named Yoshihiko.
Yoshihiko along with his mighty companions...
...defeated Maou...
...and brought peace back to this world.
How about it?
Is there any among you...
...willing to become Yuusha to defeat evil?
I have weak health since birth.
I can never carry out such an ambitious task as Yuusha....
If you'll excuse me...
He looks quite strong too...
How about you Lotohiko.
Your name is very Yuusha like.
My feeling says Yes.
I do have a feeling that almost doesn't mind going on a quest right now.
Really...My feeling is...
I do have the feeling...
So what's holding you back?
- How about you? - No way! - That's quick....
Ahhh... Looks like there's no hope....
All we can do is wait for everything to be....
...destroyed by the hands of evil....
Is it true? Are you the messenger from the far away land of Laurasia?
That's true.
I was sent by Labora, the elder of Laurasia.
My name is....Orudan.
Then...
Is it true...?
There's a Yuusha Yoshihiko's direct descendant in this village?
That's true.
By any chance did Labora also see who this person is in his vision?
There is nothing Labora-sama can't do.
I...
...have...
...protected this from the monsters with my life.
This is...

"Yuusha Yoshihiko and Akuryo no Kagi"
There he is. Oyyy~!
Orutoga~ The Elder is calling you!
The One who's inherited Yuusha's blood.
Orutoga.
Please grant him the power!
I have brought Orutoga.
Here he comes...
Bring Orutoga here, Hurry.
This is Yuusha's direct descendant?
Orutoga...
I know this is a bit sudden but...
We've just learned that you are the descendant of Yuusha.
Over there...
Lies the sword of the legendary Yuusha Yoshihiko.
Listen Orutoga.
Listen well.
You'll carry that sword, gather mighty companions and...
...you'll obtain the "Demon's Key" which was stolen by someone.
And you'll seal away all those monsters once again.
That is the mission given to the one who inherited Yuusha's blood.
There, go on your quest right now!
To bring peace back to this world...
Yuusha! Go on your quest, once again!
I DON'T WANT TO!!!
Eh?
Why?
Why don't you want to?
- I'm just a kid. - So true.
I know you're a kid but...
You're the direct descendant of Yuusha...
Even though I'm a descendant, I'm still a kid.
A heavy sword like this...
See? I can't even pick it up.
So true.
First of all, I'm a kid.
Without a doubt I'll be killed by monsters on the first day of my quest.
But you see, the very first one would be...
...the really weak type... one of those blue things, right?
No no, I think I'll be defeated by that one too.
So true.
Why are you trying to send a child out there all alone anyway?
I think that's strange.
Well... you know...you're the type...
What do you mean the type?
There are some...
...young Yuushas, right?
As they continue questing, they mature little by little... story like that?
But that's just a story, right?
But this is reality you know.
Get real, elder.
Hey, hey...Wait!
If you're really trying to send me out there, I'll report you for child abuse.
That's bad. Really bad...
But he's a direct descendant of Yuusha...
You can do it!
A child's job is to play and have fun.
I'll do my best to play hard!
What just happened?
Hotoke-sama who resides in heaven.
The Monster's presence is getting ever closer...
All we can do is to wait to be destroyed....
Ah~ Hotoke-sama. Hotoke-sama yo~!
Please come to us and save this village! Please!
Elder. Is this really going to save the village?
This is a teaching by the legendary Yuusha.
In times of despair, ask for the mercy of Hotoke in heaven.
But tell me, did this Yoshihiko ever existed?
You! How dare you speak to the elder like that!?
How can you believe Hotoke will come to help us from heaven... Huh?
You put custard and cream in here? No way? Really?
...and banana, strawberry and avocado, that's too much. You put in too many things.
It'll ooze out when I bite it. I don't think avocado will go anyway.
- It'll go? really? - HOTOKE~!!
- Hotoke liking it.
HOTOKE~!!!
Huh? Wait, I'm out? You can see me?
Yes, we can see you.
You've come to save the village!
No no, I haven't been told about this.
Hey, why don't you do it.
What do you mean why? I just started eating my crepe.
Hotoke yo~.
How do we escape from the monsters?
Huh? Are you saying there are monsters down there again?
Huh? You're saying I didn't know anything?
Of course I knew!! Why don't you handle this, you blockhead!
Hotoke, do you know Yuusha Yoshihiko?
Yoshihiko? Yes I know him.
We are searching for a Yuusha who's willing to fight the evil again but...
...we're unable to find him yet...
I've also heard of many young men challenging the monsters in the past but...
None have returned...
- That's too bad... - Please!
We would like Hotoke's advice.
But...Avocado doesn't go with this.
HOTOKE! WHAT THE HECK?!
I see, monsters...down there... right...
What do we do? Why don't you come up with an idea too. Huh?
Eh? Bring back Yoshihiko and his companions back to life? I don't think that's a good idea...
Yoshihiko will come back to life?
Well, I guess I can do something...
But you know what? How about someone new? Don't you want new faces?
No no no, not at all.
Yoshihiko is fine.
Really? Yoshihiko is okay? Then I guess I can do something about it.
Ehhh, Oh, then, please.
Fine. I understand. I'll bring them back.
That's easier than I thought.
Then, please bring him back right now.
Uhhmm, sorry can you wait just a sec, just a sec. a sec, a sec, a sec
After I'm done eating should be okay, right?
- NOT OKAY! - But my hands are all sticky, you know?
Nobody cares about your sticky hands!
But, Ehhh? Really?
Fine. I'll bring Yoshihiko and his companions back to life.
Are you ready? Ready?
NA NA NA NA~ oh the echo...
That did it. They're back to life.
Yeah right....
How can they came back to life just like that...?
What was that? Na na na na~
Oy oy oy oyy... I'm shocked.
I can do whatever I want. Right? Am I wrong?
Na na na na~ is a spell, don't you know?
- There is no such spell. - Oyy.
You're very rude. You Old fart. Old fart.
Oy, you know what? Everything is fine.
Right now, somewhere in the world, Yoshihiko and his companions have came back to life. Maybe.
- Na na na na~ is not happening. - You're annoying.
Huh? Actually anything would've worked. Ru ru ru ru~ would've been fine too.
But I just felt like saying na na na na~. That's all.
- Ru sounds better. - There's no difference!

[RIP Yuusha Yoshihiko]
What's going on?
Um...? What?
I'm among the living world here.
What's this mean? Huh?
I feel like I was brought back to life. What is this?
Yuusha Yoshihiko and his companions!
That voice. Hotoke!
The seal to confine monsters was broken by someone.
What are you eating?
It's delicious. Um... Everyone!
Hur...and fight against evil...!
- I can't hear you with your mouth full. - Just fight!
- It's delicious. - Oy! - Huh?
Huh? Shut up. Just go fight.
Hey...That chewing sound...
Giving word while eating....
What are you doing?
I see. We're all back to life. Without a doubt.
There, Yoshihiko, Murasaki & Danjo.
All back to life. That's what this light is about, right?
That’s what this is. I see. Got it.
Our questing is going to start once again.
Good!
Um... What is this? What...is this...?
- Merebu-san... - Oh, Yoshihiko. You are Yoshihiko.
Yoshihiko?
Are you Yoshihiko?
Yes.
Danjo-san. It's been a long while.
What's going on? Yoshihiko?
- I got it. - As expected.
- What do you mean?.. - You see.
We are...
...brought back to life by Hotoke to seal the monsters back.
I see... that useless Hotoke again...
Yes...um....let's put a pin on that for later...
Yes...you're right. That Hotoke is good for nothing.
Yes you're right.
I'm guessing....
He brought us back to life at the state just before death?
At the state before death?
So that's what happened...
Yes, after we parted...
I went on a journey to learn more magic.
I started the journey, I reached a road...
...then comes a cow, got ran over, then died...
I'm dead... the end.
After learning so many spells, you got ran over by a cow and died...huh?
Well, none of the spells was useful anyway.
Is that why you're the only one still young?
- I think so. - Merebu-san.
It's been a while. Can you cast a spell on me? Anything will do.
You're still the same. Fine.
Sweets!
Oh...Something sweet...
I want to eat anything sweet!
There's nothing sweet in a place like this.
Oy, why did you cast sweets for?
What are you going to do? There is nothing sweet around here.
I guess I can't do anything.
I have one.
What?
Wow, you look old. You're like a grandpa. Grandpa.
You're still a lousy wizard as usual!
- Chohyado.. chohyado.. chohyado.. chohyado.. - Yaahh cold!!
It's cold. I hate cold. I'm cold!!
Of course, you old woman.
But Hotoke expect us to fight against monsters like this?
Everybody.... leave it to me.
I'm the only young one here, very young...energetic youthfulness...
I'll cast my spells left, right and center to defeat the monsters.
I'm counting on you. Merebu-san.
Mep mep.
The Monsters in this level...
I'll defeat it in one shot.
Aahh...oh... my back...
Don't over exert yourself.
Merebu, heal me with your spell.
Vantelin! There's no such spell!
Merebu...
I've walked too much. My knee hurts.
Please cast a spell.
Glucosamine. And chondroitin.
There's no such spell, don't you get it?
I will...I'm a Yuusha and I will defeat this monster.
What the.... It seems there's no damage done.
You're so weak...and the enemy is weak too. Let's try my spell.
Eh?
You're too weak...Yuusha...
Yuusha was killed by....this...
Nice.
What'cha mean nice...
(Hyaluronan)
Nice.
Not good.
Every time I come to my senses...
I'm always playing this ball game...
Yoshihiko! Yoshihiko~!!
Hotoke, you're finally here!
Oy, look at these...
...these wonderful... the problems you've caused...
Why did you do this!??
Hotoke-sama. Please...
...make us young enough to fight.
If not, we can't go forward with our quest.
Yes. I understand.
However, there's a reason...
...why I resurrected you all like this...
- What's the reason? - What do you think it is?
Is it because you want us to appreciate youthfulness?
Um.. That's not it.
You want us to learn the meaning of life?
That's not it.
That's enough. Just say it. No, just tell them.
You just screwed up, right?
The reason why I brought you all back like this was...
I messed up. I just screwed up. Nothing more...
If you just messed up, please fix it now.
Okay fine. I'll do it.
Hotoke Bea~m!
Wow Danjo!
Miss tiny tits!
Yoshihiko!
Thank you very much.
He screwed up. You don't need to thank him.
As you can see, Yoshihiko.
Your mission this time is...
...to obtain the key called "Akuryo no kagi" which will enable you to seal monsters away.
"Akuryo no Kagi"
Many years have passed since you've defeated Maou...
...and there is someone who broke the seal that confined monsters.
You must find him and take back the "Akuryo no Kagi".
That...
um... A Seal, right.
Most likely the one who broke the seal was...
...from the demon race...
Ehh...Gather the evil power from... to...from monsters...
Huge...He must have very huge powers...
Right? To defeat this entity... even for you...
Even for you, it won't be...um...easy...nope, nope
With many fights, you'll gather...that...that...
Gather the courage and go again...no, against the great enemy!
However, at the time when we defeated Maou, we were quite powerful.
I'm sure it's matter of time before we defeat this one too.
Um.. Sorry. I'm really sorry.
You're all level 0 right now.
- What? - Why?
Bring us back to the level after Maou's defeat!
I'm really sorry. I didn't save it there.
What do you mean save...
You're such a useless Hotoke.
This can't be happening.
I'm sorry. I'm in a hurry.
I'm off to the family vacation right now.
You have a family?
[activity schedule] Hotoke2: Sales meeting 14:00 Hotoke4: Family Vacation
What's with white board? What are you writing? [activity schedule] Hotoke2: Sales meeting 14:00 Hotoke4: Family Vacation
Family Vacation...Wait a second! [activity schedule] Hotoke2: Sales meeting 14:00 Hotoke4: Family Vacation
You're number 4?
Bring number 1 here! Number 1!
Then, I'm off to family vacation!
Wait!
How can this be?...Back to level 0...
Yes, it does look like zero...
I don't know why but I feel like my memory is a bit foggy...
Does that mean, your spells are back to zero too?
No, I do remember one spell.
If that's the recovery spell, it'll be great!
I'll cast it on you.
Nothing happened...
Look! Her eyebrows are thicker.
This spell is called "Yoshizumi" (Ishihara Yoshizumi?)
I can't see it myself anyway. Change it back.
Merebu-san, cast on me too.
Sure.
Is it thick?
Yes. I want it too.
Danjo, if I cast it on you, your entire face will be covered.
How is this spell useful anyway...?
By thickening the enemy's eyebrows...
...it'll prevent the sweat from going into the eyes.
Isn't that helping the enemy...?
You really piss me off....
Change it back... NOW!
Well...
"Akuryo no Kagi"..let's go find it.
I'm sorry. Please let me stop by my home, Kaboi village before that...
Eh? Why?
The "Put the enemy to sleep instead of killing" Izanai sword is there.
Let's go. Not to kill is Yoshihiko's motto.
- I think that one. - They're the one.
Who are you people?
I'm Yuusha Yoshihiko.
It was true!
What Hotoke-sama said was true!
I guess you had doubts.
We'll go on the quest to find the stolen "Akuryo no Kagi" by Hotoke's orders.
Before I died, I requested it to be delivered here...
You mean the Izanai sword?
The sword, bring the sword.
Thank you.
You must...
You must bring the peace back to this world once again.
Alright.
Mr. ancestor!
What did you say?
He's your descendant.
Yes, he inherited the blood of Yuusha.
His name's Orutoga.
My descendant?
I have a descendant?
Do you think I can become a Yuusha too?
Yuusha...
How about it? Would you like to join our quest?
Yes. With the legendary Yuusha,...
I can accompany and would like to become powerful too.
Ohh...two Yuushas...That's reassuring.
So we have one more companion.
But...I can't...
Why? You have so many strong allies with you.
He's right. We'll protect you.
That's right. Even if you don't fight, your level will go up if you stay with us.
By the time we reach the last enemy, you'll be a full fledged Yuusha.
But...still I can't...
Why not...? You don't want to be separated from your mommy?
If you're a Yuusha, you can't be like that, you know?
It's not that.
Then why? Tell me the truth.
Actually...
My schedule is full...
Sc...schedule is full....?
I'm sorry.
I really wanted to go but...
Well... um... I guess it can't be helped.
Um....Schedule is...very important...
This quest...will...take some time... right?
Kids nowadays are....very busy...
Um...he is...kind of special... I think...
Well...many things...
I understand.
Then, while managing your schedule, become a great Yuusha one day.
Yes sir!
Brother...
Yoshihiko. I thought I just saw your sister.
That's not possible. How can she be back to life too.
It's possible with that screw up Hotoke.
What?
Sorry Sorry. I did it again.
Who are you? Hachi-bei? (One of the character in Mito Komon)
I'm sorry, Can you say that again? One more time...
Why? I was right, right? Don't make me repeat it again.
There was another...saved point.
So we can be much stronger, right?
Well, no, yes? Not sure. Sorry. Hotoke bea~m!
This is...
I feel like I've seen this before...
I feel like I have more spells...
Yuusha! Watch my true strength!
- Maou.. - This isn't good!
- We have no chance. - We have no equipments either.
This is not good Hotoke!
HOTOKE~!!
