The Light of Creation
We've both changed a lot.
We're Sho who wield our own Hayagami in this world.
All in a fight for submission.
A fight for submission? You're wrong!
I'm not wrong.
Nothing between us has changed since then.
Arata...
Just say it, Hinohara.
You hate my guts, don't you?
You want to kill me so bad you can't stand it, don't you?
So bad, you became a demon!
What's wrong? Go ahead!
Become a demon and fight me for real!
I... I won't become a demon!
I'll change your heart!
You just don't get it.
My heart only yields to power.
That's why I'm telling you to fight me.
Hinohara! Fight me!
His Hayagami evolved?!
Orochi is excited.
Hinohara...
Kadowaki...
Hinohara!
Arata!
I told you, you're not getting away, Hinohara!
It has begun.
The Hayagami at the root of all creation, Tsukuyo,
and the one Hayagami that can defeat it, Orochi.
Light and darkness...
Let us enjoy this battle between the two Hayagami.
Arata...
I've been waiting for this fight.
I'm going to enjoy every moment.
What's his problem?
What did Arata do to him?!
Every day, Kadowaki and his buddies
pushed me around with no resistance.
At school, I was forced to submit all the time.
Arata...
Lord Kannagi! Help Arata!
This is his fight.
We can do nothing but watch.
Kanate...
Lord Kannagi is right.
Besides, if I tried to help, I'd only be a hindrance.
I hate to admit it...
Don't worry.
Arata won't become a demon.
He won't lose.
I believe in him.
You believe in him, too, right?
Believe in Arata...
Arata...
Hinohara!
Appear!
Are you going to shut yourself in again?!
Attack me!
This is not a game! It's a fight for submission!
Make you submit?
I can't...
I can't do that!
Fight, Arata!
You're gonna get killed if you don't!
Then you'll never make it to the princess!
That's right.
I want to live up to the trust that the princess had in me.
But what do I do?
Arata!
You won't lose, Arata! I know you won't!
I... No...
We all believe in you!
Believe? None of you even have a clue!
I'll make you regret believing in Hinohara!
Lord Yorunami!
We mustn't.
We have to believe in Arata the Sho.
Master Kadowaki...
Not bad. He may manage to take down Tsukuyo with him.
No...
The boy called Kadowaki
may well surpass our expectations.
Arata! Shake it off!
It's no use, I can't deflect it.
Orochi's Kamui is too strong.
No!
Damn it!
He's in trouble.
Yes. Since Tsukuyo does not possess offensive Kamui,
it can do nothing if he cannot nullify Orochi's Kamui.
Everyone...
You have served me well.
Thank you.
I will submit to Arata the Sho.
Y-You mustn't, Lord Yorunami!
You are our wise leader, and one of the Twelve Shinsho!
I will entrust everything to Arata the Sho.
I know this is an act far more noble than becoming king,
and one that will earn my mother's praise.
Wait, Yorunami! What are you saying?!
Live on, Arata the Sho.
I wish to see the world under your reign.
You...
It's all right.
I will support Arata the Sho through Tsukuyo
and see through his battle.
Yorunami...
Now this is interesting.
Stop, Yorunami!
I don't want to have you submit to me.
I don't...
Are you running away?!
Aren't you going to change the world?!
Then accept this test and don't run away!
Test?
To submit to another is not to to be killed or sacrificed.
It is leaving one's life force in your hands,
like Tsutsuga once did.
Carry their life force, their feelings, and their wishes with you,
and continue to move forward as long as your life lasts!
Find your resolve and have Yorunami submit!
Then move forward for the sake of all those who believe in you!
Those who believe in me...
Hayagami Nakisawa,
submit now to the great Sho before me.
My life shall be as one with the great Hayagami.
Yorunami!
Be strong, Master Shiotsuchi.
Th-Thank you.
Lord Yorunami's palace...
Are you okay, Kotoha-chan?
Kanate...
Where's Arata?
Over there.
Yorunami...
Hinohara.
Never thought I'd see you make him submit.
I guess you're finally taking this seriously.
Kadowaki...
Why are you so determined to fight me?
Why?
Hinohara!
Did you reduce your speed on purpose?!
Are you pitying me?!
What?
Don't you make fun of me!
I want to beat you.
No one else. Only you.
Beat me?
When did you lose to me?
You're the one who's always
tormented me so you could stand on top!
You really don't understand anything.
So I have no choice but to fight you.
Show me what you can really do!
Appear, Nakisawa!
I guess bluffing won't work.
That's it. That's the look I wanted.
There are things you can only see after you've lost them.
I once lost everything.
It was only when I realized
I had nothing more to lose that I gained my power.
I understand, Akachi.
I will obtain power.
I'll throw away everything
if it'll let me defeat him.
Watch my fight with this eye you gave me!
Akachi!
Akachi?! He has Akachi's eye?!
Akachi, what did you do to him?
Let's settle this, Hinohara.
Hayagami Orochi!
Hayagami Tsukuyo!
Appear!
I want to live up to all of their trust.
My fight isn't just my own anymore!
Kadowaki, you cannot make me submit!
Tsukuyo's glow...
What's going on?
This is...
What is this?
Is this Tsukuyo's...
Arata's power?
Arata...
Hinohara, you...
For my friends, for the lives that have submitted to Tsukuyo...
For all the people who believe in me...
For the sake of changing this world...
I will...
That light... It couldn't be...
Sousei-no-Hinowa!
Arata has awakened Tsukuyo completely!
Wow, Arata looks like a king.
I will not yield to anything or anyone!
You're fighting to change the world?
Then I'll fight for me and me alone!
Prepare yourself, Hinohara.
I will...
I will make you submit!
Bring it anytime.
I won't run away anymore.
Don't forget you said that.
He won.
Arata...
Please land the ship! Save Master Kadowaki!
What is this feeling?
It was supposed to be a fight to the death for submission,
but it's like...
When I run with you, I feel like the wind.
So keep running with your eyes forward.
I'll keep running beside you.
Run with all your strength, Hinohara.
Kadowaki...
Thank you, Tsukuyo.
You believe in me, too, don't you?
Arata!
Kotoha!
Grab on!
Arata!
Thank goodness...
Thank goodness you're safe.
Kotoha...
Oh, right...
I bought this in Suzukura,
but I haven't had a chance to give it to you.
Arata...
I love it. Thank you.
I'm going forward.
Come with me, Kotoha.
Yes.
Are you sure about this?
We Zokusho are of one body and soul with Lord Yorunami.
Along with Lord Yorunami,
we will lend our strength to protect you, Arata the Sho.
We place our life force in your hands along with our trust, Arata.
Our lives shall be as one with the great Hayagami.
K-Kadowaki...
He switched places with one of the Six Sho?
Yeah. Be careful.
I will.
But, still...
What?
You've changed somehow.
You seem stronger.
Yeah.
I never expected to see Sousei-no-Hinowa.
We need to get rid of him.
Yes. To realize our true desire...
Yes...
Hayagami Tsukuyo will fall, and the world will change.
I will wait in this world until I get to see that day.
I can't believe he made Yorunami submit.
Come to me now. I will make you submit, Arata the Sho.
Why is the princess still alive?
Why?!
Emisu...
I will reclaim Homura if it costs my life.
Then, I will make Akachi submit with my own hands.
How long before I can sleep without the torment of nightmares?
Emisu...
I'm glad you're safe, Master Kadowaki.
Hinohara is really something.
That's why I acknowledged him once before.
But that's also why I can't forgive him.
I can't lose to him.
I don't care if it's just my stupid pride.
I have to surpass him.
Master Kadowaki, you really do care about Master Hinohara.
Shut up.
Let's fight for submission again, with all our strength,
Hinohara.
I will change this world, Kadowaki's heart,
and myself!
Arata, show me your all-seeing eyes, your open heart,
and your strong will.
I will be waiting,
believing in you.
