I won't let you pass.
Shana, didn't I tell you already?
I will never cooperate with you, as long as you're a Flame Haze.
Your kind will never forgive the Denizens.
You reject them and treat them as outsiders!
Therefore, I shall create the paradise Xanadu and free the Denizens from this world.
For the first time, they'll live in a world they want, one that accepts them.
They will truly belong.
In addition, this is the only way to grant Sakai Yuji's wish.
You mustn't interfere with me.
This is me
My hair flutters around my cheeks, red from the cold
I'm me
When I found a tiny bit of determination, all this began
If even hope and despair hold the potential
for a future where darkness holds no sway
then the pain I can never forget is our promise from days past
At night I hold on to my hopes and prayers, unreasonable as they are,
and once I awaken
I take the chains I call my reasons and simply take flight into the endless sky
Yes, simply that
That's...
That's the reason you can't be with me?
Those feelings...
What we felt back then...
Why can't you believe them?
Yuji...
You idiot!
Idiot!
You lived in the human world, master.
I'm surprised you aren't better with women.
That was never a talent of mine.
Even if I studied them for thousands of years, I still wouldn't understand.
Unfortunately, it's never been a talent of mine, either.
Attack that!
R-Roger.
Th-They're...
Throw me!
This is the Psalm of the Grand Order...
Yes, and this ring is Corde.
A Treasure that can be loaded with an unrestricted spell and fired like a bullet.
I see.
I don't know how you got the Psalm,
but I suppose it would be effective.
That's not all I've got!
Take this.
I have some new tricks as well.
This is important to me.
It's designed to protect itself.
What the Winds Calls
It doesn't appear to be going well.
He's pretty strong, too—
What?
As usual.
Yeah, I'm sure it's one of the old man's...
Sale Habichtsburg!
Today is our special "payback for everything you've done" day!
Prepare yourself!
The one-hit kill ultimate weapon!
The miracle of science, Excellent 252580, the Punching Tiger Trap!
Well, this can't be good.
Yeah, probably.
Jeez... They're having all the fun outside.
Why do I have to hide here?
They're just decoys.
We're the ones with the real job to do.
Can't complain about that.
Yeah, I suppose.
If we want to help them, we have to do our job.
I guess, but will we really make it in time?
Indeed. I didn't expect her to be directly above us.
Yeah, if they actually need her, they should be protecting her.
Let's go.
Where did he come from?
No, more importantly...
He's trying to bring down the tower!
Bel Peol! Protect yourself!
I guess it worked.
Am I going to die?
No...
If it ends here, there wasn't any point in my coming.
They didn't want to say goodbye,
but they did anyway.
They loved each other.
Sakai and Shana love each other, too.
Love isn't just about what the other person wants...
Sometimes, going against their will can be a way of showing how much you love them.
Love.
That's right.
It's the same for everyone.
Pheles is going against Johann's will.
And Johann is doing the same.
Because they're in love.
Pheles gave me the Hiralda, even though she didn't want me to use it,
just to see what I would do.
I...
Shana!
Cut this!
Thank you, Shana.
I'm...
going to give it a try.
Kazumi.
Those two are fighting, even though neither wants to.
I'll change this.
It'll put Sakai in danger.
It may ruin Shana's plan.
But I think it's for the best.
For that, I'm willing to throw away my life.
No...
I won't throw it away.
I'll make it worth something!
I heard you.
So incredibly strong...
Pheles?
The Hiralda is a Treasure that allows humans to use unrestricted spells.
Humans cannot concentrate strongly enough...
on a single thought.
The Hiralda allows them to invoke an unrestricted spell
powered by their resolve to sacrifice themselves.
Then I...
You will not die.
Did you give me this because you knew?
On the contrary,
I gave it to you because I thought you would never, ever use it.
And yet, despite my expectations, you have summoned me here.
I, who can change everything,
in the place where everything is decided...
Yoshida Kazumi.
I shall go, in response to your summoning, and grant your wish.
Pheles!
I shall change what is here,
and I shall fulfill my unwanted promise with Johann.
Pheles...
Why didn't you tell me anything?
Pheles!
I'm sorry.
Pheles!
For her to be summoned here, and now of all times...
I have you.
Wake up, Johann.
Yo.
Hello there, I suppose.
Sakai Yuji and Snake of the Festival.
I'm taking it back.
Our Treasure,
the Midnight Lost Child.
Yuji!
I won't let you!
If you were inside me,
then you should know what Sakai Yuji was planning.
Both of them, I suppose.
I understand his passion and devotion,
but I don't agree with it.
What?
The ends don't justify the means.
The ends?
Yes. The ends for Sakai Yuji, who isn't a God.
It's a noble gesture, but it's boring.
And most importantly, everyone will end up unhappy.
There's no way I'll let that happen.
This isn't a game!
Sakai Yuji,
you're trying to plan everything out perfectly.
"I did this, so I have to do that," you say.
And that forces you into this.
I'll do everything I can, and accept the punishment for it.
What's wrong with that?!
Isn't it wrong to make the girl you like unhappy?
If love is your motivation,
then I think it's okay to act a bit more selfishly.
Shana would never allow that.
You haven't even told her the whole story.
So how do you know?
You've been too obsessed with pursuing your goal.
I also think you need to pay more attention to her.
Don't you think Shana would understand?
There's no reason for me to believe that!
Revealing the plan could jeopardize the creation of Xanadu!
So, you think it would be dangerous?
You really are stubborn. No, actually...
I see, I understand now.
You're underestimating love!
What?
You've convinced yourself that you can't show them your love.
You won't use it as an excuse.
You keep closing yourself in.
Love can push aside logic and selfishness, and accomplish anything.
It's pretty amazing.
Do you think I'll just believe anything you say?
I thought you'd say that.
You've made the decision that you no longer deserve happiness,
so you've tossed aside everything you have to make it this far.
You have no right to say that to me!
I am entitled to my own opinions.
It's all right, Johann.
So is doing this.
It's fine.
I'm giving it back to you.
What are you going to do?
I'm going to change your situation!
Come here, Pheles.
Johann!
I did everything.
I didn't want to, but I did it anyway.
I tried really, really hard.
Thank you, Pheles.
I'm sorry for making you do something so painful.
My beloved Pheles, no one will ever...
Yes, Johann.
Tear us apart again...
Get in!
Bye!
Floor it!
Right!
Go with them for now, Kazumi.
The van that went up was an illusion.
The real one was heading toward the surface.
In other words...
What a bunch of jerks.
Yuji!
You lost your detection ability, didn't you?
An after effect of Johann's leaving?
I don't know.
But now I have more important things to do than finding out why.
What?
That isn't a nice way to greet a guest.
Yeah. I'm sorry to force myself on you like this,
but do you need an escort for your escape?
If they're as strong as you, sure.
I didn't expect Hyakki Yakou to show up.
So the Tuner infiltrated to get them inside.
But what's the point of taking her?
Who knows?
They've caused a good deal of damage.
But in the end, we'll make it all work out.
Professor.
Is the tower's tuning finished yet?
Yes, General!
We've just finished the density calculations and VR simulations.
Domino!
Domino, are you trying to ruin my beautiful climactic scene?
I'm very sorry, professor!
So when will it be done?
When?
We can do it whenever!
In fact, let's do it right now!
P-Professor! The control system is exposed!
Didn't you remove the monster form control room functions when the Strategist got mad at you?
Domino!
Call it a calculated risk, to make the tower stronger!
Don't trouble me by changing the plans now,
Professor Dantalion.
We're saved!
Can you send it back inside?
I'm prepared for anything.
Close canopy!
Jeez...
This wasn't part of the plan, but we managed to pull it off somehow.
It might be easier than blowing up the whole thing.
But we'll be destroying it all, either way.
Then let's continue the mission.
Right, just be sure not to collapse under the pressure.
Why do they continue to fight without advancing?
We're simply waiting for Xanadu's creation.
Time is on our side.
This is strange.
I don't understand their plan.
Again...
I've been rejected again...
Is this the pain I feel when we are apart?
It strikes me like lightning
Now that I am on my journey
we have no chance to speak anymore
Still, I will remember the day when first we looked at each other
like it was yesterday
Even if we escape the world of sleep
our dreams will not leave us, and we will not leave them behind
Even the sadness in my voice, though full of strength,
will put seeds of happiness into the ground
I won't forget
that we spent time together, even if my body turns to dust
In the sky we used to fly in, full of lights
a waning moon is shining next to the stars
The story we had in mind for our lives
will go on forevermore
The battle over the creation of Xanadu intensifies,
and everyone puts their lives on the line for their beliefs.
Meanwhile, Rofocale, whom Flieder has captured,
receives an unexpected request.
Next time, on Shakugan no Shana Final:
The Egg of the World.
"The Egg of the World."
