When evil threatens the world,
the warriors of hope will always appear.
Garbed in Cloths of the constellations,
they fight by exploding the energy within them:
their Cosmo.
They are the warriors who
protect the love and peace of the world...
The Saints!
Saint Koga's journey to find Athena continues.
As the group traverses a series of canyons, they meet a girl named Raki,
the student of Cloth Repairer Kiki.
Raki says she's come for a legendary ore, stardust sand, for her master.
However,
they come under attack by the Silver Saint Cerberus Dole.
Koga gains power after seeing Aria attempt to protect Raki,
and he defeats Dole.
Raki bids farewell to the group.
But next to her,
Kiki stands and watches over their new hope.
Young men, let the Cosmo in your hearts burn!
Two cores have already been destroyed.
I can no longer allow anyone else to handle this!
Flames of Revenge! Soma's Fight of Destiny!
Flames of Revenge.
Soma's Fight of Destiny!
So hungry.
I'm starving.
Hungry.
You don't have to tell me, I already know!
We're almost there, so suck it up!
But you've been saying that we're almost there for a while now.
How much farther is it?
Honestly...
We're going out of the way
to stop somewhere to eat before we reach the fire ruins
because you guys are complaining so much!
Do you understand that?
I can't go on.
I said we're almost there!
Almost?
How "almost"?
See? We're here.
This is my homeland.
Food, food, food!
Hold up.
We don't have any money to eat at a place like that.
Then where can we eat?
Don't worry.
I'll take you somewhere you can eat all you want for free.
This place is starting to look rather dangerous.
Boss!
Hey, guys, I'm back!
If you were coming, you should have said something, boss.
Sorry, I've been busy...
Boss!
What's going on here?
Here you go!
Listen up...
The way to eat a taco is to apply the sauce yourself.
Here, try it.
Okay!
Spicy!
There you go.
The sauce and peppers are spicy, so be careful eating them.
Wh-Why, you...
Hey, Soma!
I heard you were back.
I figured this would be the first thing you'd want.
Eat up.
Water...
Soma!
You remember our promise to have that date, right?
Hey, that's my line...
Calm down, girls.
In celebration of our reunion,
let's all have a party!
I-I can't eat anymore...
I wonder what Soma was in the past.
A thug? In a street gang?
A punk? Maybe the mafia?
But everyone looked so happy.
Well, I'll admit he makes people like him.
Soma's probably always been like that.
Dad...
I finally found the one who killed you.
I remember that armor!
I promise you...
I will avenge you.
I wondered where you were going, alone in the middle of the night.
Your dad's grave, huh?
Didn't have time earlier with all the running around.
The Southern Cross
is the smallest of all the constellations.
But he was always proud of that, so he'd never stop mentioning it.
He said it's good to come in first at anything...
He was the pride of the town.
Everyone loved him, and he loved the whole town.
Growing up, I was always watching him.
I wanted to be like him.
That's why I decided to be a Saint.
And the first time I told him that,
here's what he said...
Soma,
a Saint needs to be strong.
Do you know what you must do to be strong?
No...
I see.
Then I'll tell you the biggest secret to having strength.
I'll only say it once, so pay attention.
Nice view, isn't it?
Yeah.
All the secrets to strength can be found right here.
Soma.
Be strong.
For a Saint, the most important thing
isn't physical strength or skill.
It's the heart.
The heart?
The more they have things to care about,
the more people they have to protect,
the stronger the person.
I think that's what Dad wanted to tell me.
I think I understand.
He was a good father.
Let's head back.
We have an early start in the morning.
This is the third ruins.
A volcano, huh?
"Fire ruins" pretty much nails it.
It's hot...
Let's get a move on!
You've come.
Now, feel me, Saint of fire...
This is...
That's her...
That woman!
Soma!
Soma, it's dangerous to go alone!
Soma!
What do we do?
What else? We'll follow him.
But the path...
If we can't use this path, we'll use another.
Let's go!
Don't mess with me.
I control flame.
Do you think you can beat me with fire?!
I thought I'd hold back a little.
But I suppose it will take more than that to kill you.
Where are you?
Show yourself!
Do you know why I drew you out here alone?
Where are you?
Because this is the fire ruins.
What?
Think about it...
You are the only Saint who controls fire.
If I defeat you,
it will be impossible to obtain the crystal.
In other words, you fell for my trap!
That doesn't matter at all!
I told you to show yourself!
I found you!
The time has finally come...
I've been waiting for this for so long!
You mere Bronze...
I won't let you die quickly!
Soma...
Soma, don't!
Is this really Soma's Cosmo?
Impressive Cosmo...
But you're allowing your emotions to control you.
Don't get cocky.
Hornet Stinger!
You think that feeble power can beat my rage?
Rage...
That is the feeling that controls you.
The Southern Cross...
I won't let you say you've forgotten...
Silver Saint Southern Cross Kazuma...
You're the one that killed my father!
Southern Cross?
That time...
I understand.
So that's it.
Then I'll take advantage of your rage.
The Southern Cross Saint?
I remember.
Do you know why?
Because he was the first Saint I killed.
I never thought you were his son.
Would you like to hear his last words?
Why, you...
He clung to my feet.
And he cried,
pathetically begging for his life.
That's what your father did.
I'll make you suffer!
His anger is controlling him...
Soma...
Soma... Wake up, Soma.
So his rage has taken complete control of him.
There!
Very well...
I shall give you the greatest humiliation.
In that state,
with his anger in control, and his Cosmo burning,
even a Silver Saint would be unable to use techniques.
When you try to use your techniques,
and are certain of victory, I will strike.
And finish you in a single blow!
This is another dead end.
At this rate, Soma will...
I know, but the path...
I forgot...
If there's no path, then create one.
Right?
Soma is way up ahead.
Yuna, give me a hand!
Right.
Even if he does have the ruins' power helping him,
to think that his power matches mine...
Let's finish this.
This is the end!
Soma!
Soma...
Don't let your anger rule you.
It's useless.
Words won't reach him.
Remember the secret of strength, Soma...
What did your dad have here?
What do you have there now?
Soma!
My dad's heart...
My heart...
That's right.
I...
What?
His anger is gone!
Lionet
Burning Fire!
Impossible!
Wait!
Soma!
Thanks, guys.
I only managed to stop at the very end there
thanks to you.
Had I kept fighting,
I would've fallen for her trap,
and something terrible would've happened.
I'm going after her.
Why?
I understood today, fighting her...
Until I settle things with her, I'll never be able to move forward.
So I'm going to go after her.
Soma...
Sorry.
