If nothing is done...
Everyone in this village,
will be killed by this awful plague...
to search for rare herbs, Yuusha Teruhiko left the village 6 months ago...
and still have not returned...
We need the next Yuusha (Hero) Yes! You are right!
Right here,
We have the Sacred Sword in the stone.
So far no one has been able to pull it out.
According to legend,
anyone who is able to pull this sword out...
Is the true Yuusha (hero)!
Anyone like to try... Step Forward!
All Right!
I'm in..
No! Please don't...
You are not good at conflict.
Good or not....
The Village is suffering.
But, you are a bit clumsy.
In battle, a single mistake can end your life.
Stop saying clumsy, clumsy...
Every man in the village is willing to go.
No! they are not.
No one wants to go.
You are wrong!
You are not the one!
Next!
You are not the one either... Next....
How sad...
It's the last one...
There is
no savior in this village..
I'll try!
Go ahead and try...
THE BIRTH OF YUUSHA!!
Um... excuse me... I didn't actually pull it.. it fell...
Yuusha Yoshihiko!
Go to the quest for people of Kaboi Village!
Oh... uh...
I am the Yuusha.
I....
am the Yuusha Yoshihiko!

"this way, that way, which way~~~"
Ozaru-sama what's wrong!
Quiet Please
He is trying to determine Which way to go on the quest.
South-East
Feels like.. that way..
Thank you.
Bring the horse.
Brother, Are you really going?
Surely it is my fate to go.
The Last Yuusha Teruhiko, is our father.
It is my duty to follow his footsteps.
But, if I lose you, I'll be all alone..
Wait for me Hisa.
I will definitely return.
Brother...
I can trust you, right?
Yes
Brother.
He's gone.....
Who are you?
Who? Don't you know me?
What kind of Yuusha are you? *Japan's National RPG, Dragon Quest Slime monsters are the game's mascot
I don't know you.
Wait, wait, wait!
In every quest, I'll be the first one.
First one?
What do you mean
What I mean is.. to FIGHT!
How is it? Did I hurt you enough for 1 point?
Ouch..
hey, hey, hey, Hey!
I'm coming again!
Stop it!
Stop!
yes...
It's a scary time.
Everyone is suffering from the plague and looking for salvation.
I'M TALKING TO YOU!
LISTEN UP!
yes..
It's a scary time.
Everyone is suffering..
LISTEN TO ME!
Why are you passing by with a cool face?
Sounds like long story....
Let me say this much.
Once I'm finished with what I have to say, I'll kill you quickly
eh.... I'm I getting killed?
Yes
Once I'm finished with what I have to say.
A Tale to bring to other side.
I am Yuusha.
I must save my Village.
What reason you may have,
I can't be killed here.
You are pretty brave. for a young one.
Until you finish listening to what I have to say, I won't let you go.
My name is Danjou.
Like you, I am fighting with a duty to save my village..
STOP!
Oi! Wait up!
I'm not done talking yet!
When are you going to stop following me?
Like I told you,
until you listen to what I have to say.
Listen to my story and when your mind wonders I'll attack and kill you. That is my tactic.
That is a great tactic!
Yea, I'm smart.
You want to listen now?
I'll go to sleep for today.
That sword...
This guy is....
Yoshihiko!
Let's take a break. My legs are tired.
Yea, you are right.
Let's take a break.
Who are you?
Yasuhiko. Use your sword!
No! I can't kill a woman.
You are too soft.
In fact, I don't want to kill men either.
Don't worry, just use your sword.
Your sword is called "Izanai Sword"
It will not kill, Just put them to sleep.
Is that true?
It's a sacred sword given by the God of peace.
I believe you!
What you said.... It's true, right?
It's true...
- maybe... - What do you mean?!
Absolutely positively true....
maybe... positively..
Which one?
Revenge for my father!
Look! It's true!
Why do you think I killed your father?
My name is Murasaki
My father Yasumaru was killed by you.
This is the first time I left my village.
- and I never killed anyone. - Admit it!
I finally found you!
I'm returning home with your head!
uh...., Murasaki
What proof you have that Yoshihiko is the killer?
Here's the proof!
The drawing of the killer's face by eye witnesses.
Look!
Well.... how this...
Is it me?
- I can't really tell.... - Looks identical.
Couldn't find someone better at drawing?
He is the best in the village.
Some village....
At an angle, it may look like me....
- What angle? - It's Identical!
- Really can't... - No doubt about it
Is there any other information?
Somewhat large eyes.
- Oh! Anything else? - That's it.
There are many guys with "Somewhat large eyes".
Large eyes would be one thing. But "Somewhat large" will match too many guys.
To kill all of them is a lot of work!
This person, that person, It's all wrong persons...
Who should I really kill.....
um....
Would you like to join us?
Come with us and
when you are convinced that I am your father's killer
then you can kill me.
Yoshihiko! You are too soft.
I'm on the road to save my father too.
Same as you.
How about it...
Would you join us?
My instinct tells me it's you.
When the instinct turns to confidence
Attack me anytime.
If you insist.
You won't be able to sleep in peace anymore.
I know.
OK, Let's leave this forest before it gets dark.
Let's go.
Oh.. Here he is!
Merebu-sama! Founder!
Well...
Everyone. It's time of giving.
My child.. my child was stung by bees.
What should I do?
Squeeze where the bee stung with fingers like this
Then...
put some spit on it.
Ohhh!!
Thanks!
Look... a village.
Let's get some food there.
Let's go.
Revenge for my father!
How many times I have to tell you.
Give more time to be confident!
I can't take it anymore so I changed it to a trick knife.
When did you... Trick knife...
What's that?
MEREBU-SAMA!
Haven't seen you around.
Want to listen to stories from outside?
Come over to my house later.
Yes. Founder.
What's with him?
Who does he think he is?
He is a Founder.
- It was really heavy.. that rock. - It's bigger than before..
Welcome.
Where did you all come from?
I'm from Kaboi Village.
Kaboi.....
I don't know.....
How is the plague?
Many have died.
I'm on the journey to find some mystic herbs.
and my father who left before me.
Very well.
How about you?
I'm....
traveling with him until he listens to all of my stories.
and then kill him.
What? That's really confusing....
- We are colleagues - What colleagues?
He's trying to kill you.
What about you woman?
- Please don't call me "Woman"! - Wow, A Strong Woman! not bad! not bad! Sorry! Sorry!
What's your name?
Murasaki
Oh Murasaki.
What is your relationship?
He killed my father.
I will kill him someday.
Both of you are trying to kill him?
We are Colleagues
What colleagues? They are trying to kill you.
Must be really nervous while traveling.
While you are walking,
They can come and attack you anytime.
Murasaki's knife is a trick knife.
What? trick? Trick knife?
Doesn't make sense. Never mind, let's drink.
Tonight, let's enjoy talking and drinking.
Do you have anything you would like to ask me?
- By the way founder, - What is it?
I saw you lifting a large rock.
Oh! You saw that?
That Rock was lifted by people on the other side of the cloth, right?
Haha! What are you talking about! No!
In front of the cloth, there is a wooden platform.
Which is connected to the back of the cloth.
and is lifted by maybe 3 men.
Ha, ha! No!
What's he saying.. What is he saying. so funny.
Oops Spilled!
Do you want to eat?
So obviously suspicious.
I'm not suspicious... Not at all...
Some men were saying the rock got heavy lately.
Possibly, they are the ones lifting it.
Who are they? I wonder who they are...
Caught you! It's over.
So what...
And so what! I said let's enjoy tonight
and you have to say such things.
No remorse.
I didn't mean to upset you.
I'm a carpenter.
I thought that set up was great.
You think so? It's a great contraption.
No one discovered... Done it many times.. No wrong!
No you are wrong! I'm mad now. I'm leaving.
Wait up! Oii....
Wait for me! Wait for me!
What's wrong fake founder.
Don't call me fake.
Then, Liar founder.
That’s worse.
I'm very sorry
for questioning such things last night.
That's OK. What you said was True.
See, ~ ~ ~
Don't say that.
See, ~ ~ ~
You too old man.
Don't call me old.
What's the matter. So early in the morning.
I want to go with you.
Huh?
I'm tired of being a founder.
I want to quit. Once someone discovers the trick...
And I'm tired of listening to the villagers wishes.
What will the villagers do without you? They will be lost...
They will do fine. That's how they are.
Don't follow because you are bored. This quest is not that easy.
I want to see the world.
And... I can use Magic.
I can't lift rocks but....
See. Look.
um.. What's changed?
Look closely.
Murasaki's nose became a Pig nose.
You're right!
What did you do to me?
Turn people's nose up.
Spell called "Hana-Boo" (Hana-Nose + Boo-sound pig makes)
In what instance would you use it?
- It's great! - Great?
Most definitely not useful! At all!
Hey, my nose!
You want me to fix it?
Yes.
If you want me to fix it,
Say Bu-he Bu-he.
Bu-he Bu-he.
Very well ~
- Please cast Hana-Boo to me. - No you don't.
- Sorry, I can only use it once a day. - So useless.
So what do you think? I'm a Wizard.
So, what other spells can you cast?
For now...
Only Hana-Boo.
~ So useless.
In our journey, I may learn new spells.
Don't look useful.
You are not nice. So what else can you do?
I only care about avenging my father.
Let's go Merebu-san
I can join you?
of course....
I appreciate your help.
Yoshihiko. Is there anything that you want?
Take whatever you want.
I.....
I just want to find my father and the herbs.
That's the only reason for this journey.
You are such a giving guy.
He's just a simpleton.
I will help with your wish.
Me too.
Even though it may be a long journey.
It doesn't matter how long it takes.
Well, I guess
I will join also. I will take revenge later.
Let's go.
Fog.. has cleared.
Yes, It's cleared.
Huh? Yoshihiko!
- You are Yoshihiko! - Who is it?
FATHER!
Eh?!
What are you doing out here?
It's been 6 months since you left to search for herbs.
Yes I did.
to find mystic herbs.
And what happened?
Couldn't find it and going home?
No.
I found it.
And lots of it.
Then why haven't you returned to the village?
Ahh, that is....
I met this... woman
and child...
Tell them your name.
I am Airin.
And she is... like this...
So, it's hard to go back to the village.
Ohh, That's right!
You can take the herbs back to the village.
This will help fix the Plague.
Oh, is that your companions?
Thank you for helping Yoshihiko~
I'm his father ~
Is Hisa doing well?
Yes.
Well,
Sorry about this Yoshihiko.
Think of me as I'm not in this world anymore.
So...
Let's find a little happiness.
Huh??
Hey hey, Does this mean....
It's the end....
of the journey?
That...seems so...
uhh... I guess you are right.
Well, then....
Uh...
Good-bye?
I think so...
Oh....
Ohhh...
Uhh...... wow... amazing... - Um.. Sorry.
I didn't think my wish would come so soon.
Oh don't worry, It's fine. It's good that wish came so quickly.
Uhh... Well...
Great job.
Thanks for the great work.
Ah!
let's do lunch sometime.
Oh... right. let's do that.
Oh, sure.
What is this...?
YOSHIHIKO!
What was that voice?
YOSHIHIKO!
Look!
- Hotoke-sama? - Yoshihiko
Listen to me well.
Yoshihiko? why don't you answer Hotoke-sama?
I... can't see Hotoke-sama...
Yoshihiko
Your mission is to find the herbs, not to find your father.
hey, where are you looking Yoshihiko....
Right there! Over there.
Hey, wait a second. wait.
You can't see me?
I can see clearly.
Sorry.
Hey! Hey ~!
What you mean! You can't see me?
What's this? The Main Character can't see me? What's the reason to continue with my line?
hey, Try this.
here try it.
Wow! I can see!
It's really Hotoke-sama!
oh! you can see me now? Good... Good... OK next line.
Wow... Looks 3D.
Don't need to be 3D...
Head is really big...
Why do you say it with a serious face?
I have a large head. I do...
I may have large head for the body...
Never mind!
Ok, let's continue with the word.
Yoshihiko!
Mission for one with "Izanai sword" is
to defeat the Maou who came down to this world.
Maou...?
Long ago, he came and slept deep down for a long time. But he's awake and walking in this world now.
He is the cause of the Plague!
He is controlling people's mind.. um..
trying to.. um.. take over..
the..world
You Okay?
well. um. by Maou's hand,
Well... Ahem.
um... people...... um...will um......
harbor dark thoughts...
this world is filed...
um.. no.. filled with
monsters.
Uh
Well...
So... You must save this world
from Maou.
That is your mission...
your mission....
So, that's it.
Well, well.
So the long journey will continue..
It seems so.
