It's been one week since the collapse of the new Tokyo multipurpose radio tower.
According to officials, fuel used for construction left at the site caught fire when struck by lightning...
No!
No, no, no!
Rose, listen to me!
No!
My friends are... Rose, calm down!
No, no, no, no!
"When: August 8-9"
"Where: Maizuna Grand Hotel"
Calm down!
Oh, my.
It hurts, Rose!
No!
Rose, calm down.
"Beauty on the Beach"
Well, you're going to be away from each other for three days.
Don't act like this doesn't concern you!
Say what you want.
Sorry, I promised I'd go before you showed up.
No!
Hey, Rose!
Calm down!
I suppose there's no alternative.
I'll help you.
Really?
Of course, I expect you to return the favor.
Over here.
Eriko-san, what are you telling her?
It's a secret.
This place is amazing.
It's my dad's company's private beach.
Beautiful white sand, clear waters of the tropics, and a select food spot.
We have everything we need for love. Now we just have to make it happen!
Ryuji, I'll do it!
Thanks for waiting.
This year I'll have the summer of love I've been dreaming of!
Eto-san, don't you think that's a little much for the beach?
This is...
Keeping it hidden is even more erotic!
Let's get going.
Hey, wait.
What are you doing?
This is your chance to get closer to Ryuji-kun!
It's okay.
There's nothing wrong with me.
It's okay.
Ryuji-kun.
Ryuji!
Rose!
Ryuji, the ocean is amazing! Look at all the water!
What are you doing here?
My, my.
What a coincidence.
What's going on, Eriko-san?
It's summer. We want to have fun, too.
They'll notice Rose's mark of the dragon.
It's fine.
This is artificial skin, Tokura-san's special appliance.
They'll never be able to tell just by looking.
Ryuji-kun, what are you ignoring Misaki for?
Ryuji! That sexy lady isn't enough for you? Who's this beautiful girl?
Don't be a stranger. Introduce me!
I'm hungry.
Kisaragi-sama, we have a message for you.
Dragon?
It's chilly, isn't it?
You don't need to come with me.
I'm the only one who's been called.
Did you think that would stop us from going with you?
Did you think it would?
I have been waiting for you.
You sent me the letter?
Yes.
Allow me to introduce myself properly.
I am the empress of white dragons, rulers of ice and snow, Margarite.
Please call me Maruga.
Kisaragi Ryuji-san, Nanao Eriko-san...
And you must be the red dragon princess.
I'm Rose.
I have heard rumors about you.
I am counting on your strength to help me with a problem.
I want you to recover the white dragon sword stolen by humans.
The sword is currently known as the Lost Precious "Ice Rage".
The owner is George Evans, a level 10 breaker staying in a nearby church.
Bloody George the black punisher...
He's a powerful fighter of the Anglican Church that proclaims dragons are servants of the devil.
Yes. If the sword remains in their possession, I am certain disaster will come of it.
Aren't there plenty of others you could ask for help?
I have heard you are the world's eighth level 10 breaker.
They say you are a valuable person who shows understanding for dragons.
You are only human, but you engaged with that princess.
That's not... I only just learned how to use my powers.
What do we have to gain by taking back the sword?
I am prepared to reward you.
However, you will be unable to refuse my request.
George came to Japan to bring justice to the dragon that has appeared here and those harboring her.
If you refuse to help me, I will tell him everything I know about you.
That sounded like a threat.
Call it what you will.
I am staying at the same hotel as you. Let me know if anything happens.
Whatever she looks like, she's still a dragon.
She's quite the princess.
Rose, Onyx, Maruga...
These dragons...
I feel like it's become more dangerous around here since that giant showed up at the church.
I can't stand any more of this!
First a black dragon, and now we have to deal with a level 10 breaker!
At least we're prepared.
Eriko-san, did you know George had come to Japan?
I'd heard rumors. I didn't think he'd actually come here.
If they're coming here even if we keep our mouths shut, we should go after them.
They'd get us first!
Are we supposed to wait for them to attack us?
I'll go to the church tomorrow to check things out.
I'll go, too!
Do you have business with the church?
Um...
I wanted to take a look inside, so I...
I see! Welcome.
There's been a lot of suspicious characters lately. Please take your time.
I am George, a guest of this church.
The priest is out, so I cannot offer you a detailed explanation.
As you can see, the construction is just like those in England.
You'll notice God's majesty permeates every corner of...
George-san.
What is it?
Is this a sword?
Are you also a breaker?
What? Yes, I suppose...
So am I!
Are you a member of the society?
No...
I can't quite use my powers.
I see. Well, there's no reason to worry.
When I was your age, I blamed myself for being unable to live up to the expectations of those around me.
How did you solve your problem?
I accepted it.
My immature self and the path I was meant to take.
Do you believe in dragons?
This sword is Ice Rage, the icy wrath of God.
It's a Lost Precious.
One hundred years ago, a village was attacked by a dragon and was on the brink of destruction.
They say a lone hero appeared.
He risked his life fighting and left after defeating the dragon.
He left behind this sword which was venerated by the villagers as a legendary sword.
When I received this sword from the church, I knew what I was meant to do.
Kill dragons, the servants of the devil.
If you throw away your uncertainty and pursue only what you are meant to do...
you will naturally gain control of your powers.
You may find yourself unable to believe in dragons, though.
Oh?
What a cute little guest.
Ryuji, there you are!
Rose!
I told you not to come here!
I do not mind.
The church should be open to all.
Rose-chan, was it?
You must be warm. Would you like some ice cream?
Yes!
Okay. I'll bring you some.
Um...
George-san, have you met a dragon?
Dragons are beasts of legend.
Unfortunately, I haven't met one yet.
Let's leave now.
But he said he'd give me ice cream.
If he finds out who you are, he'll kill you!
Why?
There she is!
What am I going to do about this hair?
They grabbed my arm, so I burned them.
What are you going on about?
Hand her over!
What are you doing?
These are sacred grounds for listening to God's words.
Stay out of this, old man!
Go back to your country!
Those harsh words you cast upon this young girl and your blasphemous attitudes.
Unforgivable! I shall punish you infidels in God's name!
Calm down.
You should get out of here.
Infidels? We're atheists.
Old man, what is that?
Who are you calling "old man?"
I'm nineteen!
What? You're underage?
Who is this guy?
The next time we meet will be the day you die, scum.
Are you all right?
Oh, no!
What are you doing? Let's go.
George-san said Ice Rage was the sword a hero used to defeat a dragon.
Don't you think it's odd to value a sword used to kill your own kind?
Is it really the white dragon sword?
I am sorry I cannot be more specific.
However, I am certain that sword belongs to the white dragons.
Please take back the sword for us.
There you are!
Ryuji-kun, don't you think you're spending too much time with these people...
when you came here with us?
Mao-chan, they look like they're in the middle of something.
Let me introduce you.
This is Maruga. I met her studying abroad.
Nice to meet...
Nice to meet you! I'm Aikawa Masato!
I'm a healthy young Japanese high school boy.
Would you like to go to the festival together?
Let's go. I'm sure it'll be fun.
We'll show you around a Japanese festival.
Ryuji, it's a dragon ranger!
When have you been watching that?
Rose is full of energy.
Yes.
Are you okay?
Why do I have to wear this?
Don't you have festivals like this in your country?
Who is this man?
Carnivals and tomato festivals?
He's not a bad guy.
He's just a handful.
Don't touch me!
What were you thinking, suddenly inviting me to a place like this?
I thought it'd cheer you up.
I do not need your concern.
Sorry!
They're eating clouds! Ryuji, let's go!
Hey, Rose!
Maruga-chan, do you want some shaved ice?
A traditional Japanese summer food...
a sub-zero fantasy of ice and colored sugar...
Japanese crushed ice!
It's sweet and delicious!
Oh, you...
Here.
Thanks.
You two are like a married couple.
Huh? Where's Rose?
Rose.
I want that.
"Bullseye!"
Ryuji, you're so cool!
Ryuji-kun, you can do it.
Focus, focus.
Focus...
Congratulations.
Here.
Eto-san, is there anything you want?
I don't...
How about that stuffed animal?
What kind of moron buys shaved ice with a card?
Do you think we're stupid, kid?
I'll get some cash right away.
What?
Our motto's clean cash every time!
Why don't we talk at our office, miss?
Where ever we are, I will neither run nor hide.
I thought I heard you scum disrupting the festivities again.
I told you the next time we met would be the day you'd die.
George-san!
Let me handle this.
Leave this to me!
Any way you look at it, they're in the wrong this time!
Quiet, you filthy scum!
Get out of here!
Divine retribution!
Ryuji-kun!
Let's go, Maruga!
What's going on over there?
Who knows?
I wonder if everyone got away safely.
I would have been fine by myself.
Sorry.
You certainly are meddlesome.
Ryuji's not meddlesome.
Rose, I can't breathe.
Let me tell you a story.
Once upon a time, a dragon fell in love with a human girl.
However, the villagers killed her for her contact with a despicable creature.
When the dragon found out, he was consumed by rage and attacked the village, killing many humans.
The dragon died at the hands of a villager.
The incident caused a deep rift between the two communities...
and not a single dragon and human couple has formed since.
That sounds like George-san's story...
There you are.
I came because I'd heard there would be a dragon themed dance.
Excuse me...
I am George Evans. I'm staying in the nearby church.
Would you like to join me for mass some time?
Next episode "Unpleasant Awakening"
This is Eto Misaki here to teach you about the applications of "hau."
When you're happy.
When you're sad.
When you're angry.
