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.
The party reaches the water ruins in Ryuho's homeland.
They defeat Mirfak and destroy the Water Ruins Core.
However,
a young man named Genbu takes the Libra Cloth from them.
Only a single ruins remains.
Young men, let the Cosmo in your hearts burn!
Even if the thunder ruins are nearby, it's pouring...
This isn't Shina-san's fault, is it?
She just suddenly told us to come out here.
It's lucky your teacher uses the thunder Element.
None of us could destroy the Thunder Ruins Core.
The next ruins will be the last.
Yep.
We'll shut down Babel and Mars.
And save Saori-san and the world.
For Aria! Eden's Lightning of Rage!
For Aria.
Eden's Lightning of Rage.
My father's ideals...
His dreams.
Aria's power is being used to oppose them.
They've stolen Aria's power...
Eden, I'll take you to meet your father.
Father?
Yes, the great god of war,
who bears the burden of the entire world's
pain and sadness.
Mars-sama...
Eden, my son.
This world's pain has reached its limit.
The current Athena can no longer
protect or save the world.
I shall revive, wrest control from Athena,
and create a world where the strong rule the weak.
A righteous world, without worry, pain, or hurt.
A new era for god and mankind.
Someday, you will be king of this world.
Increase your Cosmo.
And protect this beautiful world,
as well as the ones you love.
Yes...
Yes, Father.
I will train myself.
To carry out your ideals...
To protect those I love!
Eden-sama!
Sonia-sama was wounded during her battle with the Bronzes!
What?
The Southern Cross...
That man's son...
Is that you, Eden?
What are you doing here?
Sister,
I'm going.
Eden...
Wait, don't go!
Don't stain your hands with blood!
We may have different mothers,
but you are still my precious little brother.
One day, you will be the king
who protects Athena in the new world.
I've fought all this time for this!
Sister...
Eden, I will continue to fight...
Until our father revives.
Until his new world becomes reality.
Your resolve.
My mother and father's expectations.
I understand them all very well.
The new world our father will create,
where Aria is Athena,
will be a world without useless war and conflict.
A world where Athena's light shines.
Where all living things glow, and their beautiful lives are never threatened.
That is my ideal, as well.
And I want to do what I can to ensure it.
I will go, Sister.
Eden!
Athena's Cosmo is a splendid thing,
to bring life to this dead land...
Finally, it is time.
The power of light and the Cosmo we have stored
within Babel will now create a new Earth.
Yes.
None remain to oppose your ideals.
I shall return to Earth.
Yes.
Aria?
That's a big lake...
But it's a sad lake.
I can't feel life's light inside.
Even when it takes root, it wilts.
Aria...
Anyway, you look a lot better than
when you started this trip.
It's fun being with everyone.
Until now, I was always alone in the castle.
A castle?
Yes.
My first memory is of being in a castle.
But ever since I began my journey...
I've been to many places,
and I've met many people.
I've only been able to learn of these things
because you helped me escape.
Thank you.
I'm happy I met you, too!
Yeah.
I'm really glad there's another girl around.
If it were only Koga and the others, I don't think I'd have survived.
What the heck?
I'm sure I would have been continuously angry.
What?
Because guys are stupid,
and slackers, and naïve, and idiots.
You're mean!
What are you doing?
Aria?
The flower's Cosmo is happy.
Aria, you said Cosmo is in everything, right?
Yes.
The ground, the rocks, the wind...
They're all happy because of my light Cosmo.
I'm glad I was born with a light Cosmo.
When Mars held me captive, it was painful, but...
This is all thanks to you, Koga.
Nah...
Hey,
if you were always held by Mars, you don't know your parents, right?
I don't know, either.
My parents or where I was born...
The first thing I remember is Saori-san raising me.
Once, I asked her why this was.
But she looked so sad,
I couldn't ever ask again...
What's the real Athena like?
Saori-san is like light.
Bright, but warm...
Gentle.
Like you!
Because the light Cosmo you gave me
was always so warm and gentle...
It made me happy, just like these flowers.
Look...
Your Cosmo is resonating with mine.
I want to meet Saori-san!
The real Athena.
Yeah.
After we've defeated Mars and saved Saori-san,
you can stay with us.
I won't let you be alone anymore.
This Cosmo...
The enemy!
Koga!
Yuna, take care of Aria.
I'll go and take a look!
Koga!
No...
Koga!
This Cosmo is...
Eden...
You know him?
He...
Eden is...
Mars's son.
Eden is Mars's son?
Aria...
Your Cosmo has increased?
Yuna!
Stand back.
I'm just here for Athena.
So you can hurt her again?
I won't let you!
And the real Athena...
Aria is the real Athena!
Aria will be the Athena of the new world.
You've used her power. You should understand...
The infinite power of light within her.
Eden.
Let's go back.
From now on, I'll protect you.
I...
I won't let you.
I won't let Mars have Aria!
I don't want to hurt anyone in front of Aria.
Withdraw.
Don't insult me.
Stay in there.
I won't let you...
Yuna.
Yuna!
Eden...
Koga, be careful.
Eden is Mars's son...
H-How could someone like that be a Saint?
To protect Athena, of course.
Protect Athena?
You're the ones who kidnapped Saori-san!
The old Athena will be the new world's foundation.
From now on, Aria is Athena.
I'm taking her back.
The hell you are!
Tonitrus Sartan
It'll take more than that!
We'll put a stop to your ambitions...
With Aria's help!
Pegasus Ryu Sei Ken!
So this is the Pegasus who injured my father?
Too weak.
I'll show you the power
of the goddess Athena and those who protect her world of light.
I'll show you the difference in our Cosmo!
Tonitrus Feracalos
Koga!
Let's go, Aria.
No!
Aria.
You can't have her...
I won't let you extinguish her light!
I never want to see her suffering
like that again...
She's finally begun to smile.
I...
I'm going to protect her!
Burn, my Cosmo...
Burn!
You can't protect anything!
Stop!
Stop it, please!
I'll go...
I'll go with you to Mars.
Aria...
Very well.
Thank you, Koga.
Wait...
Wait! Don't go...
Aria!
