Fureta yubi sameta KIZUNA ni
My fingers touched the cool bond
Kuzure yuku kokoro no sukima
In the crevice of my crumbling heart
Samayou KARADA wow...
My body wanders whoa...
KATACHI naku yami e to kieru
Disappearing into the shapeless darkness
Iro aseta omoi wa tooku
My faded thoughts are distant
Sagasu no wa jinki rao
What I search for is a mirage
"Mirai o tooku ni kazashiteru..."
"I'm holding the future far away overhead..."
Kirameita sekai tooi kiwaku wa
In a world that sparkled, my distant memory
Miageta sora yume o yobi okosu
Is calling my dreams to mind in the sky that I looked up at
Hateshinai yaro ni deau keshiki wa
In the scenery of us meeting on a ceaseless night
Sugita hibi no kotae mo miezu
I can't even see the end of the days that we spent
Konna ni mo tooku hanareteite mo
Even if we're separated so far apart
Terasu hikari KIMI ni tadori tsuku
The illuminating light makes its way to you
Kiseki wa kanau hazu
The miracle should come true
Beautiful.
Marshall!
Yes?
We haven't the time for idle drawing.
I may come here just once during my lifetime.
This may be my only chance to draw this scene.
I'll be done soon.
The view from over there looks wonderful, as well!
It's no use.
That's just the kind of man he is.
I know.
My, oh my.
Someone's beaten me to it.
Oh, good day!
[Strange Mansion]
These are quite good.
Why, thank you.
You've drawn an awful lot of buildings.
I studied architecture at the University of Prague.
I see, then this is just a hobby.
You are...
Alphonse Klaus.
I'm Froi Tiedoll.
And these are my merry travelling companions, Kanda and Marie.
It's a pleasure.
I'm sorry. He's a bit shy.
Don't take it personally.
R-Right...
You've come from Prague, right?
I suppose the only reason you'd be in these mountains is to see Jan's Mansion.
Yes!
You know about it?
Only what the rumours tell.
What is this Jan's Mansion?
Long ago, a somewhat eccentric man named Jan Nowark lived in the village up ahead.
He owned the general store. His shop would be crowded with people everyday.
One day, though, he closed his shop
Jan used all of his savings, and began building a house with his own hands.
The villagers all thought that he would tire of it and give up
but he never did.
He just kept on building the house as he saw fit.
He built on and on for forty years, until he had finally completed a proper mansion.
That's the story of Jan's Mansion.
Reading this story as a boy is what made me want to be an architect.
I've always wanted to see Jan's Mansion with my own eyes.
Ridiculous.
Oh, you were listening?
Should I not?
I thought you weren't interested.
Not in the slightest.
Jan's Mansion is a work of art, a testament to architecture's ability to entertain and inspire!
Its amateur construction has opened architects' eyes
and sparked the minds of countless artists and authors!
It's a treasure that should be preserved for future generations!
That's right.
Though I don't suppose an antisocial humbug like yourself would understand.
W-What are those?
Move!
Noel Organo
After them, Marie!
Right!
Marshall!
There he goes...
No one's home...
How can this be?
It looks as though someone was here just moments ago
It looks like Akuma have been here.
Akuma?
You mean those monsters we met earlier?
Correct.
They're all dead.
Oh no!
I hear them! To the east!
Stop!
W-Wa...
That's...
That's Jan's Mansion!
Here at last, exorcists?
We had to kill all those villagers just to pass the time.
Now, come inside. It's time to play.
They're badgering us!
Those bastards!
Stop!
It could be a trap!
I don't care!
I must destroy the Akuma!
Oh well, nothing for it.
We'll check it out.
We can't let them run amok in that mansion, now can we?
B-But...
We'll be just fine.
You get home.
You've seen it, right?
Leave the rest to us.
Right.
Um...
Please, take care of the mansion.
I will.
A dead end?
Is this it?
Don't be so paranoid. The enemy's nowhere to be found.
It's as Klaus said, this house itself is a game.
Jan made this entire house to be played with.
You'll have to watch both doors and floors while we're here.
How interesting!
Oh my, how strange!
M-Master! Oh my, how strange!
This is all unexpectedly fun, isn't it?
Marshall, you must take care when touching things!
What?
Did you say something?
Here they come, here they come!
All's going as planned.
But no matter how many level ones we send, they won't be beaten.
That's fine with me.
Yes, we have but to lure them into this room.
That's right.
Then we'll be able to finish them off.
Is it over?
Well then, let's press on.
I'll do it.
You're as dense as usual.
You simply assume that the door is hinged.
I'll just...
There, you see?
You have to think outside the box once in a while.
Marshall!
Welcome, exorcists!
We meet at last.
It's a pleasure, Marshall Tiedoll.
Oh, you know who I am?
Of course!
We've come to collect that lnnocence of yours.
I'm terribly sorry, but I can't allow that.
Is that so?
We'll just have to take it by force, then.
But first, perhaps a change of scenery is in order.
You!
By change of scenery, did you mean him?
No!
He came in of his own accord!
Take a look. The stage is nearly set for our battle.
I'm sorry. I was just worried...
There was a hole leading into the hallway...
Well, no use griping about it now.
What's this?
This is it!
This is our stage!
And soon it will be your grave.
This room can change its shape.
It's this mansion's biggest secret.
And what a funny mansion it is.
You think so, too?
I quite agree, my friend!
Oh, stop it!
I pride my self on avoiding friendships with Akuma.
Is that so?
Well, that's unfortunate!
Marshall, fall back!
I had every intention of doing so
My, my...
Innocence, activate!
What do you think?
Isn't this a wonderful body I have?
Oh my, this could be a problem.
Kanda, get down!
That won't work!
Marie!
Oh my, isn't this fun?
And the game's just beginning too!
Now then, how long will you last?
What's wrong? Done already?
There!
So your face is your weak point.
Run away!
Stop it!
Please, stop!
Don't destroy the building!
This place, Jan's Mansion, is my dream!
If you wish to live, stay right where you are.
Beasts of the Underworld!
Now there's nowhere to hide.
Good grief...
You've really done it now.
But it seems you've destroyed a little too much.
My goodness!
The mansion's power source!
Now, fall into the gears!
My goodness, you destroyed the room, and the floor with it.
You've a lot to learn, I'm afraid.
Klaus, you risked your life to see this mansion.
Remember it well.
Eh? Right...
Maker of Eden, activate!
What's he going to do?
Art!
Wh-What the hell?
I-It's crumbling!
I told you,
you have to think outside the box.
If you want to leave them without a place to hide, you've got to do it right.
Above you.
Take care of them.
It's so terrible that a wonderful mansion like that had to be destroyed...
It's so sad...
What are you saying? You did it yourself.
That's so like the master, isn't it?
You see, my father fell ill.
That's why I had to leave my studies.
I thought to sever myself from the world of architecture,
I'd see Jan's Mansion and be able to give up on my dreams.
But now...
Mr. Tiedoll, I've made a decision!
I'll continue studying architecture.
So many ideas are rushing into my head!
If I were to build a new mansion here, how would I go about it?
Now that Jan's Mansion is gone, I know what I must do
I have to build an even greater building myself!
I see...
Say, did the master destroy the mansion because he knew this would happen?
That's none of my business.
I leave them for one minute to get some snacks, and look what happens.
I wonder if they like sweets.
What is it?
Nothing.
Yume wo mita
I had a dream,
Kowai yume wo
a terrible nightmare.
Toozakaru senaka ni koboreta
So I tried to embrace your now absent back,
Aru hazu no sono ondo wo
seeking the comfort it offered
Mou ichido datte sagashiteta
just one more time.
Dakara soba ni ite
Stay by my side
Zutto da to itte
forever and ever,
Akuma no koe wo kakikesu made
to banish these howling visions.
Ushinawanu you ni
I don't want to lose you.
Sotto tashikameru
I make sure that you're there.
Taisetsu na kioku wa
Though I might one day
Ayamachi ni mawattemo
consider this moment a mistake,
Nee, kaze ga
the wind in your hair
Utsukushii dake
is so very beautiful.

Hoping to reunite our scattered party,
we attempt to cross a treacherous mountain, but are caught in a fierce blizzard.

Pitiful Akuma, let your soul be saved!
