TOTAL ECLIPSE
Long, long, long ago,
the gods created the world.
Time passed, and a prodigious player appeared
whose skills rivaled the gods'.
That player wielded a thunderbolt ball,
and saved both Earthdash and the Moon in their hour of need.
He was revered as a legend.
Aurora, the sky...
This is the legend, Flora.
It is...?
The only one who can save Earthdash and the Moon...
Basquash!
Is something the matter, Princess?
That was the legend...
The savior.

Eclipse is disbanding!
We will return to being just normal girls!
We're holding our last concert in the Skybloom Kingdom.
Don't cry, Violette.
Be sure to come!
To Eclipse's final concert.
Rouge wants to see you too.
We're waiting for the legend.
They're calling for you, Legend.
Hey, Legend.
Hey, what's the deal?
Didn't Eclipse go back to the Moon?
There's been a rumor amongst the fans that Rouge's illness...
...was too advanced for her to return to the Moon.
B-But that's just a rumor.
Could it be that this has something to do with the legend, too?
Come to think of it, where's Dan?
I'll go look for him.
What are you thinking about?
I'm not thinking at all.
This is Dan you're talking about...
But...
But?
It's like there's this big confused muddle.
In my chest.
It won't go away. I dunno why, but I can't relax.
Giants...
...and Underground...
...and Turbine City...
...and disbanding...
What the hell is wrong with me?
Shit!
Ow! Ow ow ow! Hey stupid-head, calm down!
Shit, shit, shit!
Be worried and calm!
Mr. Dan feels something too.
So did that build your character any?
Worrying is what makes us all grown-ups!
Shut up!
This is very tight security.
I appreciate the Lunatic Corporation's help.
No one can hijack your cannon now.
There's no time.
The first manifestation will appear any day now.
Yes.
Did the stones speak to you?
Is the plan on schedule?
We'll use Eclipse's songs to activate the ultinium ore.
Once we do...
I'll be able to hear the voice of the stones again.
Yes. Your Majesty is the last remaining Speaker.
To usher in a thousand years of prosperity for this country,
you are absolutely essential.
Essential?
Your people will long remember your greatness.
They will tell how you saved not only Skybloom, but Earthdash and the Moon...
...when two worlds would have collided.
I expect great things.
Please leave it to me. Your Majesty will soon be shown the legend.
There are only two days left.
Can we meet the deadline?
I'll make sure we do, Mr. Yan.
After all, this is Eclipse's farewell concert.
We'll show them all a legend.
But will they be okay without a proper rehearsal?
Oh!
That is their rehearsal.
Violette.
For the legend...
In order to save Earthdash and the Moon, we have to hang tough.
I know.
I know... that's why Rouge wanted the upgrade.
There's no turning back now.
Whatever it takes to become the true legend...
Do it.
Mr. Dan.
Sorry!
The Dangan and your Zephyr can't be moved just yet.
Oh, okay.
Use that if you want.
We'll catch up after I'm done with the maintenance.
Leave now and you can still catch him.
Hang in there.
Okay!
He's in your hands, Alan.
What is Yan trying to do with Eclipse?
I don't know what he's after, but we'll carry on with the plan.
There's not much time left to us.
I'll keep searching Earthdash for legend candidates until the very last minute.
What about my brother?
The Executive Council saw the last match and granted permission to induct Dan.
But how will he get to the Moon?
They can't commandeer the Moon Cannon again.
That's true.
But we aren't out of tricks yet.
Why do you keep following me?
Because I'm worried...
Yeah, I'm worried for Rouge too.
Y-Yeah.
No spazzing out, Alan.
Sorry, Mr. Dan.
Don't call me Mr. Dan.
Um... What are you going to do when you see Rouge?
Mr. Dan?
I dunno.
You don't know?
I'll use this time to think it over.
It's just...
When I see her, this muddle in my chest might go away.
I get that feeling.
Miss Rouge is cute, isn't she?
Yeah.
And she's a girl.
Yeah. So?
I just think... I just feel...
All I know is I'm going to see Rouge.
There's no way in hell to figure out what women are thinking,
so that's just a waste of time.
Hang in there.
Easy to say, but...
The stadium is complete.
We somehow finished in time for tomorrow's concert,
didn't we, Professor Thousand?
All we need now to activate the ore and extract the legendo balletto is Dan JD.
There's no doubt that Dan will come.
He will herald the birth of the legend.
Father, my voice doesn't reach them.
No one's voice does.
Yet your voice has journeyed and seen the world,
has hurt, grieved, and grown strong...
You're near, aren't you, Flora?
Dammit.
Why do I have to wear this again?
A stunningly ugly development!
There's a price on our heads for hijacking the Moon Cannon.
We can't get across the border unless we go in disguise.
Sheesh, prices on our heads for a little thing like that...
These Skybloom types sure are chicken-hearted, aren't they?
Y-Yes, certainly.
Stupid-ugly-head!
Shut up! You little...
Stop it! Being ugly is the best thing about you!
Wh-What do you think?
About what?
About... About...
Huh?
Hey, get out your ID.
Yeah, yeah.
You understand, Mr. Dan?
Keep your voice soft or you'll give us away.
I got it.
Dan, look at that!
What the? It doesn't look like me at all.
No, it captures you perfectly!
Your ugly side.
Who're you calling ugly? It doesn't look like me!
Oh, it does, ugly!
No it doesn't!
Mr. Dan, be quiet!
What're you going to do about it, ugly?
I said it doesn't look like me!
Look good and hard!
That poster and the real Dunk Mask look nothing alike!
Idiot!
It's Dunk Mask!
Get him!
There's a reward!
Dumbass! You gave us away!
Don't try pinning this on me, stupid-head.
What do we do?
Their security's getting heavier and heavier.
Isn't there some other point we could cross?
The whole city perimeter is locked down.
There will be guards' eyes gleaming at every corner.
The underground stream!
Underground stream?
It flows from the mountains to beneath the city.
But the current is rather strong, so it's extremely dangerous.
I said it was dangerous!
You have balls, right?!
Balls?
Alan! Ahead!
Hey, Spanky!
Are you okay?
Man, you're bony. Are you eating enough?
Y-Yeah.
He's here.
Dan's here. He came to see you.
Yan, how is Rouge's condition?
There's no cause for concern.
She'll go directly to the stadium.
Tonight, Eclipse will become legend.
You'll activate the ultinium ore and use the force of its reaction to push the Moon back into place.
By joining your strength together, you three will save Earthdash and the Moon.
Understand, basquashers?
Basquashers...
Yes!
Hey, you'll catch a cold.
Hey!
What are you—?!
If you don't take it off, you'll catch a cold.
Come on, strip! Strip!
You're soaking wet.
Come on.
No! I'm not ready yet!
Mr. Dan?
Totally... can't figure you out...
An exit?
This way!
You know your way around, huh?
Lead the way!
H-Hey!
What links my heart...
We'll have to take the long way around, but three blocks further on...
...to your heart is...
Rouge?
That's Rouge!
Mr. Dan!
What's that?
Where's it coming from?
It's a force that spills over, crimson...
Can you hear me, Rouge?
We'll be running on!
The players are assembled.
Soon the lights will dim.
She can't hear me?
Rouge!
Mr. Dan!
It's Dunk Mask! After him!
He's a wanted felon! Catch him!
Mr. Dan, what are you going to do when you see Rouge?
I dunno! I'll basquat!
Basquat?
Come on, keep up!
Why basquash?
To get rid of this stupid muddle!
Is that the only reason?
Shit!
Give it up, Dunk Mask!
Mr. Dan, why choose basquash?
You never shut up.
It's because basquash...
Because basquash...
...doesn't lie!
Basquash.
A world with no undersides and no facades.
Where you place all of your power into the impact, and you're ricocheted back.
Where you play notes of the entire musical scale.
and you take your own crooked path.
That in itself is a way of living.
The true embodiment of living with your whole heart and soul.
That is basquash!
Jiiya, are you awake?
Yes, Princess.
It appears I've come to the end of my journey.
Here, a new journey will begin.
My journey as Flora Skybloom.
Princess.
Basquash!
I want to see your basquash, and your legend, through to the end.
Show respect!
Th-That's...
The royal family's... Princess Flora!
Crossdressing again?
You decided you liked it?
Who do you think this personage is?
His Majesty Regalia the Thirteenth's second daughter,
Her Royal Highness Flora Skybloom!
Bow your heads! Show proper respect!
Princess?
So you're a woman?
What?! You were a woman? Why?!
I don't have time to explain.
Hurry to Rouge's side.
Okay...
Your journey will not end here, Dan JD.
B-But Your Highness!
Dunk Mask is a wanted fugitive.
I will take responsibility.
Understood!
Bow your heads!
Go on, hurry.
Begone.
To save Earthdash and the Moon.
And for the sake of the legend.
One day, I'll become a true basquasher.
On that day I'll join you again.
The way I feel about you...
What are you doing? Let's go.
Pardon?
You're worried about Rouge, right?
Yes, but I am the second princess of the Skybloom-
So what?
You're a basquasher too.
I'm a basquasher too...?
Yes!
We shall go together!
Princess!
Hey, that hurts!

Mr. Dan, it seemed pretty easy for you to wrap your head around me being a girl.
Because you are!
Pretty simple, aren't you?
Is there something wrong with that?
No. It's because you're like that that I lov—
You're the total opposite of Miyuki or Haruka, so I just didn't notice.
I hate you!
Like I said, impossible to figure out...
