Let me tell you one thing first...
Homura-tan, you see...
He's not a normal Sekirei.
I'm sure he'd get mad at me if I gave you any more details,
but if you want to know more, you'll have to catch him and ask yourself!
Atarashii yakusoku ga kokoro o tsuyoku tsunagu
Our new promise binds our hearts together strongly
Kawaru sekai ni kane ga hibiku yukou!
The bell rings in the changing world, let's go
Owari naki tatakai ga subete o hikisaite mo
Even if the endless fight shreds everything apart,
I will believe in your smile
Kimi no hohoemi tada shinjite
If I can protect your dream,
(ano hi no) Kimi no yume mamoreru nara
I will even embrace pain
(namida mo) Itami sae dakishimeyou
I can't let go of these piling feelings, this oath in my heart
(kizamou) Kasaneau kono omoi mune no chikai yuzurenai
Ah, all the way to the end of the sky,
aa, sora no haruka hate made
Sou kaketeyuku yo na kasoku shiteku jounetsu
yes, my passion accelerates
as if it were rushing through my body
Ah, no matter what kind of fate awaits me,
aa, donna unmei datte
Sou takaku koeteku makenai yuuki kureta kara
yes, I can fly high over it
because you gave me this undefeatable courage
Sixth Wing
Words of Marriage
The Northern area starts here.
All the trains have been cancelled ever since they spotted more escapees and their Sekirei.
The checks have become even more strict after that.
Anyway, let's search for the last unwinged, No. 108!
But, we don't know for sure if the last unwinged one really is Kuu...
Even so, we can't just leave her alone!
I'd feel bad if some weird Ashikabi got a hold of her.
Didn't I mention them before?
The weirdos that have been checking out Shiina.
Like that creep over there.
What's up with him?
Whether it's one-on-one or not doesn't matter any more!
Mutsu! Go and finish off the fluttering one!
Roger.
Look at those flames! The natural light!
That's rare! I want it!
Mutsu?
Oh? What do we have here?
If it isn't Mikogami Hayato-sama from the South... Am I right?
This presence... He's an Ashikabi.
An Ashikabi?
Hey! Is that fluttering one yours?
Why don't you return something that belongs to us?
I am with Higa Izumi of the East.
Higa of the East?
I'm Kakizaki, his secretary.
Let's take this opportunity to get to know each other.
Sekirei, huh?
Rest assured.
We won't do you any harm if you behave while we capture No. 06.
This is pissing me off! Adults and their hypocritical courtesy!
Mutsu, take care of them!
Don't make it sound so simple, man.
If we had at least two or three more with us, this would've been a different story...
And the last unwinged one doesn't seem to be here.
You can kiss me if you want, you know.
Norito, norito, norito, norito...
TL Note: Norito is a ritual performed by winged Sekirei and their Ashikabi in order to access their special moves.
I'll pass.
Well, whatever they are, it does not matter to me.
That brat...
Akitsu!
We're retreating.
What? Are we running away?
That one's already done for.
Give up on her.
Eh? Returning empty handed?
You asked me why I have a master, right?
This is bad.
Such wonderful eyes, filled with determination...
You won't even fear death if it's for the sake of your Ashikabi.
That's the kind of eyes you have.
You don't become one's master just because you became an Ashikabi.
You do so only once you're recognized as one. That's what I think.
Even a broken being such as myself yearned for him.
Even though the crest hasn't been engraved onto my body,
he is my master.
You can get winged, can't you?
I'm so envious of you.
Will you come with me now?
I heard a loud sound just now.
It came from over there!
Let's hurry up, Shiina!
Yukari-san, are you all right?
You... Watch out where you're driving!
Huh?
Wasn't it you who jumped out all of a sudden?!
Wha-?! That's because you were-!
Your knee...
Jeez! A maiden's leg's been bruised!
And it's your fault!
C'mon, just spit on it and it will heal.
Let's go, Shiina!
O-Okay.
Quite the aggressive babe, wasn't she?
She sure can give some hard kicks.
I won't kill you if you stay still and listen to me.
Sekirei's Guardian?
At least, until they meet their Ashikabi...
If only there was someone who would protect these Sekirei...
Will you take this burden upon yourself, Homura?
Those children...
If the children I protected...
were to meet their Ashikabi by chance...
I would be more than satisfied.
But...
I won't be able to kill Minaka because of that?
Homura!
Well done.
Leave the rest to us.
Uzume, are you...
Unwinged! She's still unwinged!
She's burning, Kakizaki.
What should we do?
It seems her power output is unstable in her current state.
I'm not sure if she's worthy of becoming one of Higa-sama's Sekirei.
Higa...
The Ashikabi from the East, huh?
I see.
So we're playing this kind of game.
What a shame.
You're just wasting your time.
Minaka!
If you want me to become the prize of this ridiculous game you set up,
I would rather melt down right here!
Behold No. 06 Homura's downfall, Minaka!
I'm sorry...
Miya...
Takami-san...
I... can't...
And you're supposed to be my rival?!
I'm worried about you, Kagari-tan.
I-I'm just worried!
Kagari-san...
What are you doing, Homura?
I believe I told you...
that I won't allow you to give up!
Kagari-san!
Sanada of the West?
No. It's someone else, isn't it?
The North... is it?
You guys...
Why...?
Ouch...
K-Kagari-san, are you all right?
Sahashi...
Kagari-
Don't come any closer!
Didn't I already tell you that I don't want your sympathy?
Th-This is no sympathy!
He's right, it's not sympathy!
We all came here to collect the rent for the Landlady!
Mu-Musubi-chan...
Homura!
You sure have some guts to keep deceiving us for such a long time.
You better be prepared when we get back.
Kagari-chan, we came to bring you back!
It would be kind of troublesome if you killed off the president just like that.
I want my past romance to remain beautiful.
It's not that I have any regrets though, really...
Regrets?
They're the enemy, right? What should we do?
Talk about a failed gamble...
Stealing an unwinged Sekirei right in front of us...
That's truly annoying.
Well then, let's clean them up!
You're going to fight as well, of course,
No. 10.
Is that... the Clothed Sekirei?
You're doomed, now that you're gonna face me!
Hold on.
She's mine.
Since the winner's already decided, we'll be taking the unwinged one with us.
I'm No. 101, Oriha.
My Ashikabi is Higa Izumi.
A surprise attack, huh?
How insolent.
You sure have some nerve to be pointing your blades at me.
I'm No. 09, Tsukiumi!
I'll pay you back tenfold for your insolence!
No. 88, Musubi! A close-combat fighter!
No. 86, Katsuragi...
I'm a kicking type... I think.
Incoming!
You don't seem too surprised to find me here.
Not really.
I already knew the reason why you're doing this, so I was just observing you...
How you assaulted No. 95,
how you tried to provoke me into fighting you,
as well as the moment you aimed for my Sekirei crest.
And also the time you disappeared from the Izumo Inn.
Did you think that I, Miya, or Matsu wouldn't have noticed?
Really... I just can't keep up with you...
There's one thing I want you to say:
Tell me that you're doing all of this for your Ashikabi.
Isn't that the only reason the Sekirei fight for?
My god! It's love, isn't it?
It must be love!
Nee-san, you just spoiled the mood...
But, this is what Sekirei are meant to do.
Fine, I'll fight you.
Bring it on.
Heh... I wonder why she underestimates me that much.
But, I will prove you wrong this instant!
So that's the unknown Ashikabi that's allied with the Demon of the North?
He looks like just a disappointing boy to me, though.
Why you-! Let go of me!
Kagari-san, we're not here because of sympathy.
Um, you see...
I came here to...
To ask you if you'd like to become my Sekirei.
So...
You're the same.
You're just like all the other people that are forced to act according to Minaka's orders...
For you...
Whatever happens to me is just a game, isn't it?
What you really want is my power.
Do you want to increase your numbers that badly?
But I have to disappoint you...
I'm broken.
Isn't this body just unsightly?
You can't even tell if I'm a man or a woman.
And my power is unstable as well.
I'm not even allowed to live for my own sake.
I...
I will incinerate my existence right here.
I never existed in the first place!
My existence...
holds no meaning...
Hot!
What are you-
Let go of me!
You'll burn too!
I'm not letting go.
There's no way that you're meaningless.
Sahashi!
Kagari-san...
You're an important comrade to us at the Izumo Inn.
I was so happy...
when we fell from the sky and got hurt...
You took care of us.
And when we got thrown out of my apartment you led me to the Izumo Inn.
I was really happy back then...
Just because of something like that...?
Whatever, just let go of me!
Mom told me...
that you saved both Musubi-chan and Kuu-chan...
and Tsukiumi said that you're a rival she doesn't ever want to lose to...
Everyone came here to save you...
Their mutual feelings...
My feelings...
are not a game!
Ouch...
Kagari-san?
Back off...
I can't control my powers any longer.
I'm already...
I will...
I will definitely not let you die!
I will... definitely...
Saha-
Oh yes!
You finally did it, Mina-tan!
Oh my, what are they doing?
It's nothing, Miya-tan!
Oh my, would you look at this...
This is...
Kagari-chan...
The flames are calming down...
What is this feeling?
The burning fever and the vexing pain have disappeared...
A unique sensation of power, merging my body and soul into one...
Homura, since you're a unique Sekirei, an Ashikabi that would be able to wing you does not exist yet.
However, this is only a matter of time.
The strength of an Ashikabi depends on the strength of your bond.
The feelings of holding someone dear...
The deeper that bond is, the stronger an Ashikabi becomes.
Someday, a person who will be able to reach you will appear.
The one to become your key to creating even more bonds...
That will be your Ashikabi.
The flames...
seem to have stopped.
Thank... goodness...
Sahashi!
I-I'm sorry...
Are you stupid?
Jumping right into the flames like that...
My mother told me that your power would stabilize if I were to wing you...
That's why...
Well, I'm sorry...
Are you trying to apologize for kissing me?
I am, sorry...
Jeez, what a man...
I don't care any more.
Just thinking about it would make me feel idiotic.
You're going to take responsibility, right, Sahashi Minato?
Re-Responsibility?
By responsibility, you mean...
For now and forever...?
That's a Sekirei's line, you idiot!
What's wrong, Miya-tan?
Something interesting is about to happen now.
I certainly did tell you to make him yours,
but kissing someone else in front of your faithful wife...!
Sekirei are interesting beings.
The soul which resides within their hearts will shape into these forms:
Anger, hatred, joy...
And above all, the feeling of love.
Although these overwhelming feelings certainly do have an influence on their abilities...
I just realized...
This is not interesting...
They don't have much impact on the efficiency of their powers,
but they surely will help them gradually mature.
It's there...
In my heart...
This is not interesting at all!
I'm looking forward to what will come forth.
Wai- What-
Eight-Headed Serpent!
It was definitely there...
A black beast... It was definitely there!
A black bear...within me!
Black Paw!
I'm at my limit...
I'm sorry, Master...
Crap, snakes! I hate them!
Damn it!
Don't screw with me!
Hey, why did you let yourself get captured, Kakizaki?
Don't mind me.
It seems No. 06 has been winged.
They even got Katsuragi.
If only Higa-sama was here... I would have finished her off with my norito...!
Yes.
All right, understood.
Oriha, that was Higa-sama.
We have been ordered to retreat.
You're strong, Nee-san.
Really strong...
I heard the first 5 numbers don't screw around, but...
It's just a matter of experience, in various ways, that is...
Right?
However...
I can't afford to lose either.
That serious look in your eyes is just wonderful.
Those are the eyes of someone in love.
No. 10, we got orders to pull out!
I know it's annoying, but we're leaving!
You barely escaped death, Nee-san.
That's what I should be saying.
See you later.
It's already over, huh?
And I wanted to check what kind of people have gathered over there.
Anyway, let's go back, my lovely kittens.
Hold it!
Running away is just pathetic!
I'm sorry...
Mine ran away as well.
You-! Next time we meet, I'll definitely...!
Where's Musubi-chan?
In case a Sekirei ceases to function,
it is an established rule to watch over it until the M.B.I. retrieves it, even in times of war.
Well then, let's go home, Minato-san.
Yeah.
Kagari-san.
Let's go back to Izumo Inn.
To be honest, I'm still confused.
But my heart has finally calmed down.
Now and forever...
Case closed!
It's not closed. It has just begun.
Now that Homura has been winged, the winging process of all the Sekirei has been completed.
Everything really begins from now on...
The Capital will turn into a battlefield.
A real fight that will achieve nothing but bloodshed.
Unmei nante ne zenbu ne kimi shidai
All kinds of fate depend on you
Tsuiteku doko made mo onaji kimochi o kakaete
I'll follow you anywhere carrying the same feelings
Mada dare ni mo hakken sareteinai michi no tairiku ni sou
Even roads that haven't been found by anyone follow the mainland
Ichibansaki ni fumidasu you na bouken na no kono koi wa kitto
This love is probably like an adventure we're stepping into before anyone else
Shinjitsu da yo kanjiteru koto subete
Everything that you feel is the truth
Sono koe ga ima yondeiru kara
Since that voice is calling me now
(itsudemo)
Whenever it may be
Mubou da to wakattete mo issho ni tameshitai no
Even if I know it's useless I want to try it out together
Nan ni mo iranai nee kimi ga warau tabi
I don't need anything, hey whenever you laugh
Ikiteru sono imi wa tokiakasarete
the meaning of my life becomes obvious to me
Unmei nante ne zenbu ne kimi shidai
All kinds of fate depend on you
Tsuiteku doko made mo onaji kimochi o
I'll follow you carrying the same
Tsuyoi kimochi o kakaete.
strong feelings

Matsu-san, what's going to happen next time?
My number of lines has already been cut in half!
Well, whatever, it's my turn to speak now!
This is when I get my screen time!
