Prologue of Slayers:
Ding-dong [*starting bell*]
(Gourry) "Here's the prior instructions. Thank you
very much for purchasing the Slayers Premium DVD. Allow us to explain some stuff about this special CD."
(Zelgadiss) "This CD includes the Prologue and
Epilogue of Slayers Premium.
It's not mandatory, but we encourage you to listen to the Prologue before watching the movie, and to the
Epilogue after watching it."
(Ameria) "And those people who say, 'Eh!? I already
watched the movie. You should've said that before...'"
(Lina) "Forget about it. Forget about it quietly. So
if you say you forgot about it, I won't treat you bad;
well, I won't treat you nice either though.
And for those slow learners who say, 'I can't do such a convenient thing...'
You'll be unhappy, no, I'll make your life miserable.
Yes, yes, I'll take the responsibility and I'll make
your life miserable. I'll absolutely make your life 100% miserable without fail."
(Ameria) "Lina san, that's enough..."
(Lina) "Ah, yes. Eh, ehem. Follow to the letter the instructions mentioned before and start with the 'Prologue of Premium,' enjoy it."
(Xelloss) Huh?
(Lina) *eating* "Ah, this is delicious. Um, tasty, tasty. Gourry, give me some of that too."
(Gourry) *eating* "Da, a, ah, Lina! Don't eat from my dish!"
(Lina) "What? Don't be a cheapskate, after all, it's a
treat.
Well then, sir, bring me triple portions of this togurouzume steamed with herbs!"
(Gourry) "Ah, me too, me too, and some kurohama beef grilled with red pepper too!"
(village headman) "E...Excuse me, don't you think it's time you stopped...
(Lina) "Huh? What? It was you who told us that you couldn't pay us any reward for beating the monster wreaking havoc in the village, but you would treat us for a meal, right?"
(Gourry) "Lina, wouldn't it be better for you to hold back a little? Everybody's looking at us as if we were robbers."
(child) "Hey mom, I'm hungry."
(mother) "Be patient"
*eating*
(village headman) "I did say so, but...It's been more
than 32 hours since you started eating."
(Lina) "A Guinness challenge. How would you like appearing in Food Fighter [TN: a TV show of big eaters] too?"
(Gourry) "Ah, that sounds good."
(Lina) "OK, just you wait, Shirota [TN: Shirota is the man who often wins in Food Fighter]." It's decided, so let's boost the next order!"
(woman) "Demon!"
(Lina) "Bring me a grilled unshelled snake tail, please!"
(man) "Yes."
*A door bursts open*
(Ameria) "Stop right there, you hungry, vile ghosts! Don't eat up all the village's food! Even if the queen of gluttons, the starved Joan of Arc Akasaka Takako [TN: a performer of Food Fighter] forgives you, I, Ameria, will not!"
(Zelgadiss) "Who is that Akasaka Takako? ...Ah?"
(Lina) "Oh, Ameria and Zelgadiss."
(Ameria) "Ah! Lina san! Gourry san!"
(Lina) "Long time no see! How many years has it been?"
(Ameria) "So the big eaters who can eat 20 plates of sushi in 36 seconds, drink 1.5 liters of a sports drink in 4 seconds and 86 centiseconds, keep eating continuously for 68 hours, and look like hippos are Lina san and Gourry san!?"
(village headman) "Ah, no. I said they were big eaters
of a hippo's level, not that they looked like hippos."
(Lina) "Who's a hippo?"
(Zelgadiss) "Sigh. I was kind of expecting this, and I was right."
(Ameria) "Oh, and why didn't you say so earlier?"
(Lina) "Yeah, why?"
(Zelgadiss) "Hey."
(Lina) "Well, anyways, talking standing up isn't good, so take a seat. Would you two like something to eat?"
(Ameria) "Yeah, I'd like some slices of electric scorpion fish, eight-eyed sea
cucumber in sweetened vinegar, and soft-shelled turtle hot-pot, 3 portions
of each!"
(man) "Oh no."
(Lina) "Well, but it's really been some time. Huh, Zel, Ameria?"
(Ameria) "Has it already been around five years since the four of us last hanged out like this?"
(Zelgadiss) "Yeah, almost. It's good you're fine."
(Lina) "You too. Eh? What's wrong, Gourry? You look baffled."
(Gourry) "Hmm...Well, who are they? Are they some acquaintances of yours?"
*fall down*
(Lina, Zelgadiss, Ameria) "Ah!"
(Zelgadiss) "Ju...Just as usual."
(Ameria) "Gourry san, that's cruel."
(Lina) "Hey, have you forgotten? We were together on
TV for at least three years!
It's the somehow useful Zelgadiss, who combines magic and his skill with the sword; he has the body of a
Rock Golem, so he can also be used as a grater if needed, and..."
(Zelgadiss) "Who's a grater?"
(Lina) "Ameria, part of Saillune's royal family and a
shrine maiden who prefers to be in high places rather
than eating; she can be used as a tree pruner, not that often, though."
(Ameria) "Lina san's even crueler than Gourry san!"
(Gourry) "Eh!? Ah! Eh? Ah, ah, eh, ah, well, I can't remember."
(Lina) "He, he, he. Wait a moment, I'll shake this lotus root-head now."
(Lina, Gourry) Uaaaaaaaa. *shaking*
(Gourry) "Oh...The world's shaking..."
(Lina) "And? Do you remember now?"
(Gourry) "First, who are you?"
(Lina) "Don't forget me too! Pow!"
(Gourry) "Powed."
(Lina) "Snap!"
(Gourry) "Snapped."
(Lina) "Bump!"
(Gourry) "Bumped."
(Lina) "I am the unequaled beautiful genius sorceress, Lina Inverse!"
(Zelgadiss) "Yes, she's Lina Inverse, a.k.a. 'Dragon
Spooker,' as in Dragons Step Past Out Of Clear Revulsion. She's an explosive while standing, the
firing button of a nuclear missile while sitting down,
and an extortion pro while walking. She's an evil
woman good for nobody and she can kill an Indian elephant in three seconds. She's the natural enemy of
all living beings, Lina Inverse!"
(Ameria) "That's right! Just for the record, she's destroyed 48 towns, 23 cities, 8 castles, 666 robber gangs, and 2 countries; she's said not to leave even a cricket's leg behind her, so frankly speaking, this town's very lucky to have just this kind of damage!"
(Lina) "Hey...Guys..."
(woman) "Why did you call HER?"
(village headman) "I never expected her to be like that..."
(Lina) "Hey you, don't whisper."
(Gourry) "Ah! Oh, I remember. Zelgadiss, Ameria, and Lina."
(Lina) "You finally remembered."
(Gourry) "Oh, Why didn't you tell me so earlier?"
(Zelgadiss, Ameria) "Yeah, why?"
(Lina) "Enough."
(Zelgadiss) "Sigh. It's really just as usual."
(Ameria) "Really."
(Gourry) "And, who am I?"
(Lina, Zelgadiss, Ameria) "Jellyfish Brain!"
(Ruma) "Everyone! The Gods are dead! The time of ruin may come tomorrow, so let's get
prepared for when that time comes! I've got here talismans handwritten by my master! If
you have this, the probability of you being saved from
your ruin is around 2.3% more than with the conventional company products! As a special offer
you'll receive three free talismans in the purchase of one right now! Assure your whole family's tranquility!
Moreover, this offer also includes an octopus charm
for good luck with money!"
(girl) "Say mom, what's that?"
(mother) "Ssh! Don't point."
(Ruma) "Sigh...They're not selling at all. But don't
give up, Ruma. This is all for the sake of the people
of this village, and above all, for getting your food,
so you must work hard! Now, everybody, the long-awaited show time! Today's
children's song is: Octopi's Festival! Everybody, sing
along!"
Slosh, slosh,
Mother octopus, father octopus, and their octopus son
Are floating on the waves.
In a zigzag,
Aunt octopus, uncle octopus, and second cousin octopus
Are dancing.
We're happy
Whenever we spurt ink.
There's a festival tonight: the octopi's festival.
("Tako Matsuri" [Octopi's Festival] Lyrics: Jun'ichi
Sato. Music: Yoshihisa Hirano. Performed by: Yuri
Shiratori.)
(Wise octopus) "Ha...Ha, ha, ha...Stupid humans. It seems some of them are aware of their ruin, but most
of the humans don't listen to their warnings. This is
just a proof of how stupid humans are. For me, the genius octopus 'Wise Octopus,' ruining you
stupid people is as easy as for an ocellated octopus to twist one tentacle."
(octopus) "Milk's wet. Ramen trees?"
(Wise octopus) "Oh, my octopus comrades. Soon, soon we, the octopi, will rule over the whole land. The humans will be ruined by the beginning of next week!"
(octopus) "Plastic. Dogs fly?"
(Wise octopus) "It's natural for you to say that. I'd like to tell you the whole plan too, but the people listening to this radio drama haven't watched the movie yet, so I cannot say anything about the plan now. You haven't watched it, right? They told you not to do so or else your life will be miserable. You haven't watched it, have you? Please say you haven't."
(octopus) "Stew stew. Burry potatoes. Foiled wood?"
(Wise octopus) "Well, I'll tell you only a little:
first we'll hire a sorcerer with great power, we'll
fool that idiot with smooth talk, we'll soothe him,
entertain him, flatter him, we'll do everything for
him, and in the end we'll kneel down to him and we'll
manipulate him as we please."
(octopi) *Whisper*
(Wise octopus) "For the details you'll have to watch the movie! Very well then, let's go find that stupid sorcerer!"
(octopi) "Hanged walrus! Hanged walrus!!"
(Wise octopus) "Do you really understand?"
(octopi) "Hanged walrus! Hanged walrus!"
(Wise octopus) "I...I wonder if this is OK."
(octopi) "Hanged walrus! Hanged walrus!"
(Ameria) "Hey, by the way, Lina-san, isn't it about time the Slayers Premium movie started to be filmed?"
(Lina) "Yeah, yeah. They told us something like that."
(Gourry) "Really?"
(Ameria) "It's the first time we appear on a movie."
(Zelgadiss) "I'm a little nervous."
(Lina) "Well, talking about that, I'm used to it. How many movies have I starred already? Around 50?"
(Zelgadiss) "You're Tora san [TN: a Japanese movie
actor who is the hero of the popular movie series "Otoko wa tsuraiyo" (It's Hard Being a Man), starring
Atsumi Kiyoshi. 48 movies of the series were made till he died], huh?"
(Gourry) "Hey, where's the stage this time?"
(Lina) "Akasshi...Or so I heard. They say the vinegar octopus is fresh and delicious there. It's essential for a movie stage to have a local culinary specialty. Akasshi will probably be just fine."
(Ameria) "Yeah."
(Lina) "According to the scenario I wrote..."
(Zelgadiss) "You wrote the scenario too?"
(Lina) "Heh. I'm the lead actress and the scenario writer. I could also be the director, if you like."
(Ameria) "Director and actress, that's amazing."
(Zelgadiss) "You'll act in your own scenario."
(Gourry) "Ah, it's like extinguishing the fire you
started..."
*strike*
(Gourry) "Ow, ouch."
(Lina) "Don't call me a pyromaniac."
(Gourry) "Owowowow."
*strike*
(Lina) "Anyway, according to the scenario I wrote, Zel
and Gourry, as the up-and-coming villain duo, enter
Akasshi to commit crimes."
(Gourry) "Ah, wait...Please, let me go...Hmrg [Lina puts her hand on Gourry's mouth]."
(Lina) "Then I appear, save the town, and as a reward I get some vinegar octopus. What do you think?"
(Ameria) "Lina san, what about me?"
(Lina) "Well, OK. I'll give you just one line."
(Zelgadiss) "I don't want to appear in a movie with such an antic scenario; I quit."
(Lina) "How dare you say such insolent words? Are you going to disobey your great director?"
(Gourry) "...You really are taking seriously all this director stuff, huh?"
(Lina) "OK, I've made my mind up. I'll cut Zel's time down to 2 minutes, 13 seconds, and 6 frames."
(Gourry) "Those numbers seem pretty real..."
(Ameria) "...Ye...Yeah..."
(Zelgadiss) "I'm not falling for your threats. After all, I guess that when the movie DVD comes out, it'll have the uncut version."
(Lina) "Ha, ha, ha...So then you don't mind appearing a shorter time on the big screen? It's the longed-for big screen, the silver screen. You could be a silver-screen star."
(Zelgadiss) "A...A silver-screen star...So my time on the screen will be cut down to 2 minutes, 13 seconds, and 6 frames, huh?...But my pride won't let me compromise now..."
(Gourry) "He's worried, he's worried."
(Lina) "Forget about your pride and you'll feel relieved."
(Zelgadiss) "Oh no."
(Ameria) "The devil's temptation..."
(Lina) "Anyway, do as you please. Well, we're going ahead to Akasshi."
(Ameria) "Lina san!"
(Zelgadiss) "I haven't compromised yet!"
(Lina) "I know. See ya!"
(Ameria) "Hey, Zelgadiss san, Lina san and Gourry san are leaving. Let's go."
(Zelgadiss) "Oh...2 minutes, 13 seconds, and 6 frames?
...Should I have compromised? ...But my cool image and
my pride..."
(Naga) "OHOHOHOHO...Here it is! The place where those evil sorcerers you want me to
beat are staying."
(village headman) "Well...Uh, well...That's right, but..."
(Naga) "OHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! Just leave everything to me, Naga, and everything will be OK. So, where are they, the so-called evil sorcerers?"
(village headman) "Uh...Well...Wh...Wh...What?"
(woman) "Headman! Those people have finally left!"
(village headman) "What, they left already? Well...Th...Then..."
(Naga) " wonder what happened."
(village headman) "Uh...Uh, I'm terribly sorry, but it seems they have already left, so I'll have to cancel this matter..."
(Naga) "I see."
(village headman) "I hope you understa..."
(Naga) "It seems my power frightened those villains and they ran away with their tails between their legs before fighting me. They're quick to understand, huh?"
(village headman) "Eh?"
(Naga) "Well, if that's the case, I completed exactly your request, so you can offer me a meal instead of the reward money. Well...First...OK, slices of electric scorpion fish, eight-eyed sea cucumber in sweetened vinegar, and soft-shelled turtle hot-pot, 8 portions of each!"
(village headman) "Oh, no...Not again..."
(woman) "Headman! Why did you bring such a person again!"
(village headman) "De...Demon!"
(Naga) "Ah, and then unshelled Saillune lobster grilled, triple portions!
OHOHO! OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO...OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!"
(Wise octopus) "Is that the sorceress you found?"
(octopus) "Tickle me. Sugar rain."
(Wise octopus) "We'd better avoid her. Let's look for someone else."
(Naga) "It seems you're looking for a skilled sorcerer, huh?"
(Wise octopus) "Oh! Where did you appear from?"
(Naga) "This octopus told me the whole story."
(octopus) "Drink apple juice. Case. Sour flower."
(Wise octopus) "You understand the octopus language?"
(Naga) "Heh, be it octopus language, jellyfish language, sea slug language, or any other language, a sorceress as talented as me, Naga the Serpent, has no problems whatsoever."
(Wise octopus) "No, sea slug language, we don't.."
(Naga) "Judging from your bit of reaction, you must've understood my power too, huh?"
(Wise octopus) "Well, yes...So, will you listen to me?"
(Naga) "Oh, if that's what you want me to do, the great Naga will help you."
(Wise octopus) "Eh!? But I haven't told you anything yet!"
(Naga) "Now, let's go to Akasshi's sea to get some fresh vinegar octopus!"
(Wise octopus) "I wonder if it'll be OK."
(octopus) "The duck's burnt?"
(Naga) "OHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! Laughing feet, laughing feet,
raging bull.
HEHEHEHE! OHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! OHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!"
(Lina) "Huh?"
(Gourry) "Heh? What's wrong Lina?"
(Lina) "I felt a hideous atmosphere of something that I want to convert into a paste with a juice blender, cover with concrete, and throw away to Osaka Bay..."
(Gourry) "What?"
(Lina) "Uh...Well...Uh, well, there should be no problem. Ha ha...It must've been just my imagination, just my imagination."
(Gourry) "Huh? You sure you're OK?"
(Lina) "Yeah. Well, be sure to protect me properly if something happens, OK?"
(Gourry) "Eh?"
(Lina) "Well, uh, you be my human shield and get beaten instead of me!"
(Gourry) "Wha...What!"
(Lina) "Anyways, I don't think an enemy with the ability to trouble me that much will show up, though. Now, let's go to Akasshi!"
(Gourry) "Ah, hey, Lina! Wait!"
(Lina) "Octopus, octopus, octopus, I can't wait to eat all those octopus dishes."
(Gourry) "Don't eat them all by yourself!"
(Xelloss) "It'd be good if such thing didn't appear; well, how will it turn out? He he he..."
(Naga) "How, indeed? OHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!"
Ding-dong [*starting bell*]
(Gourry) "Here's the after instructions. We'll go through this notice over again."
(Zelgadiss) "Starting now is the 'Epilogue of Premium.' As the name says, it was made for listening to it after having watched the 'Slayers Premium' movie."
(Ameria) "And those people who say, 'Eh!? I haven't watched the movie yet. To start off, I don't have a DVD player!...'"
(Lina) "Oh well, let's stare at the DVD itself. Look, it shines, beautiful. It also reflects your face, so shiny and bright, shiny and bright, shiny and bright, shiny and bright! He he...He he he he he..."
(Ameria) "Lina san, that's enough..."
(Lina) "Yes. And here ends the notice."
Slayers Premium CD drama "Epilogue of Premium"
(Xelloss) Huh?
(Lina) "Ah, we managed to eat some octopus and to finish the movie. Akasshi wasn't that bad, huh?"
(Gourry) "Yeah."
(Zelgadiss) "How dare you say it wasn't that bad after such a mess? After all, whose fault was it?"
(Lina) "He he he he. Now, now, don't say that. All's well that ends well, right?"
(Zelgadiss) "It might be well for you, but we had a hard time. We were made to speak octopus language and pushed down into an abyss of anxiety and despair."
(Gourry) "I don't' remember all that happening."
(Lina) "You were there too."
(Zelgadiss) "Moreover, my appearance was cut down to 2 minutes, 13 seconds, and 6 frames."
(Gourry) "Ah, you have a grudge."
(Lina) "Don't mind that. It'll be restored in the DVD version."
(Zelgadiss) "And we also lost sight of Ameria."
(Gourry) "Speaking of which, I haven't seen her at all since then."
(Lina) "She's OK. Having inherited her father's strong body, that girl won't get hurt if she's beaten a little."
(Zelgadiss) "Well, you're right in that."
(Xelloss) "Feel reassured."
(Lina) "That voice!"
(Zelgadiss) "Xelloss?"
(Xelloss) "Yes. Long time no see, guys."
(Gourry) "Hi, Xelloss. Long time no see."
(Xelloss) "Gourry san, you remembered me even when you forgot other people?"
(Gourry) "Well, if I'm forgetful as usual, the talk won't make any progress, so I just pretended to remember."
(Xelloss) "...I see."
(Lina) "Yeah, yeah, whatever. Xelloss, long time no see aside, what do you mean by 'feel reassured'?"
(Xelloss) "I'm talking about Ameria san, of course. I brought her here safe."
(Zelgadiss) "What?"
(Ameria) "Uh...Ugh." [*wake up*]
(Lina) "Ameria!"
(Zelgadiss) "You were safe?"
(Xelloss) "Yes, safe she is, but..."
(Lina) "But what?"
(Ameria) "America made!"
*fall to the ground*
(Lina) "Oh."
(Ameria) "Lina clown, Zelgadiss clown, Gourry clown!"
(Lina) "Oh, dear."
(Gourry) "Ah, she's still speaking in octopus language."
(Ameria) "Foot, foot, foot." [*sob*]
(Zelgadiss) "Calm down, don't cry. It's OK, we'll ask Ruma to cure you right away."
(Ameria) "Zelgadiss clown!"
(Wise octopus) "Nor hero!"
(Ruma) "We're in trouble!"
(Lina) "What? Ruma? Wise octopus!"
(Ruma) "We're in trouble."
(Gourry) "What on Earth is wrong?"
(Zelgadiss) "Is something wrong happening again?"
(Wise octopus) "Th...The octopus race has..."
(Ruma) "The octopus race has a new queen."
(Lina, Gourry, Zel) "An octopus queen?"
(Ameria) "Octopus memorabilia?"
(Ruma) "Oh? Ameria san, are you still speaking in octopus language?"
(Zelgadiss) "Oh, right, perfect timing. Please cure Ameria's tongue."
(Ruma) "Ah, that's, uh..."
(Gourry) "What? Is there a problem?"
(Ruma) "To tell the truth, my master has changed his
policy and from now on instead of paying a cure fee,
you have to buy this set of a talisman and a handy
octopus pot."
(Xelloss) "Good lord."
(Ameria) "Boobless."
(Ruma) "I think it's wrong too, but since it's to afford my living expenses anyways..."
(Wise octopus) "Well, the octopus language is not a bad thing."
(Lina) "Hey, you're speaking human language."
(Ruma) "Yes. It was convenient for the master, as he sold the octopus race pots."
(Lina) "That master's a money-grubber."
(Ruma) "Rather than that please say he has a weakness for money."
(Zelgadiss) "There's no big difference."
(Lina) "Well, OK. This is interesting too, don't mind Ameria's problem,"
(Ameria) "Lina clown! So dog under river."
(Lina) "Ha ha ha ha. Calm down, calm down."
(Zelgadiss) "So, what's all this about the octopus queen?"
(Ameria) "Boobless."
(Wise octopus) "Oh, I remember. The newly appeared
octopus queen violated the agreement between humans
and the octopus race and said she'd monopolize the
rights to sell octopus tentacles."
(Ruma) "In addition to that, humans say the recent matter of the octopus language was a trick to sell expensive octopus pots...The tension between humans and the octopus race is increasing."
(Lina) "First, don't you think your master's wrong?"
(Ruma) "What are both of us supposed to do if the relationship between humans and the octopus race keeps getting worse..."
(Lina) "Both...Of us?"
(Wise octopus) "Eh?"
(Ruma) "Well, the wise octopus and I are, uh, well...we're going steady. Ah, eventually we'll get married, ah, and we'll have two children: the older one will be a girl, ah, I shouldn't be saying such things..."
(Ameria) "Wow."
(Wise octopus) "You said it."
(Lina) "Do you want to have baby octopi that much?"
(Ameria) "Hares oink oink tense looking."
(Ruma) "Oh. [*being shy*] Please don't say it as if we were like Romeo and Juliet."
(Wise octopus) "Well, such a romantic..."
(Zelgadiss) "Did you say such a thing, Ameria?"
(Ameria) "Banana brouhaha. [*denying*]"
(Ruma) "Never mind that. Something terrible will happen to Akasshi unless something's done."
(Lina) "I understand the situation, but if the enemy's the octopus queen, we have nothing to do with it, right?"
(Wise octopus) "Actually that's not the case."
(Ruma) "The octopus queen gave us this...for you."
(Xelloss) "A letter?"
(Lina) "For me?"
(Zelgadiss) "Lina, do you know that person?"
(Lina) "No, I don't."
(Ameria) "Telephone caves."
(Ruma) "Anyways, let's read what it says."
(Lina) "Hmm, let me see."
(Letter (Naga)) "Go bring Lina Inverse or else I won't pass the rights to sell octopus tentacles."
(Zelgadiss) "It looks like a stupid letter."
(Lina) "I...I suddenly got the chills..."
(Gourry) "It seems she wants to talk to you, aren't you going?"
(Lina) "Ah, I suddenly got dizzy..."
(Xelloss) "Lina san?"
(Lina) "Ah, I suddenly feel water on my knee..."
(Zelgadiss) "There's no way such thing happens suddenly."
(Lina) "No, no, I'm not going. I don't know that person."
(Xelloss) "She's having a regression to her childhood."
(Zelgadiss) "It seems she really hates the idea of going."
(Ruma) "Could you please do something?"
(Wise octopus) "What do you think will happen to humans and the octopus race if nothing is done?"
(Zelgadiss) "How about helping them? Lina?"
(Ameria) "Misunderstand pie balls. Event Sudako Sanshiro chewing gum, fly, Ameria mint not crystal!"
(Gourry) "Calm down...What did she say?"
(Ruma) "'Obstructing the friendship between octopi and humans, even if Sudako Sanshiro forgives you, I, Ameria cannot.'" [TN: 'sudako' means sliced and vinegar octopus; Sugata Sanshiro was the hero of old Judo novel.]
(Zelgadiss) "Who's Sudako Sanshiro?"
(Ruma) "Please, Lina san."
(Lina) "No, I said I don't want to. Never!"
(Xelloss) "Now, now, don't say that. It seems it's getting interesting."
(Gourry) "Yeah, Lina. Besides, if we take care of this matter, we'll be allowed to eat seven tentacles of the Wise octopus."
(Wise octopus) "Huh? Well, that would leave me with only one tentacle..."
*whiz*
(Lina) "Look out, Gourry!"
(Gourry) "Whoa!"
*bump*
(Lina) "Phew. It was a close one. A letter tied to an arrow and it had to come flying right to this place. Look!"
(Zelgadiss) "It wasn't dangerous at all, so you didn't need to knock him out."
(Ruma) "But who on Earth would send a letter tied to an arrow...?"
(Lina) "No...No way..."
(Xelloss) "Let me see, let's read it."
(Letter (Naga)) "Aren't you bringing Lina Inverse yet?
If you don't hurry up
I'll go all over the world announcing this and that."
(Zelgadiss) "What is this?"
(Ruma) "I wonder what she means by 'this and that.'"
(Ameria) "Sleepy bread?"
*whiz*
(Xelloss) "Ah, another letter tied to an arrow got here."
(Letter (Naga)) "By 'this and that' I mean, for example, the story of when Lina chan picked up, picked up, and won the jackpot; or the story of when Lina chan got alopecia areata because of a fashionable perm..."
(Lina) "Nooo! Stop reading! *crumple* Damn! *trample*"
(Gourry) "What was that..."
(Zelgadiss) "If she gets so flustered about that pick up and win the jackpot..."
(Ruma) "Could it be that she got diarrhea for eating food she picked up from the ground...?"
(Gourry) "Ah, she did, she did. I saw that too."
(Ameria) "Alopecia areata heaven mice?"
(Zelgadiss) "Maybe she grew her hair long in order to cover it..."
(Xelloss) "Before that, what's with the perm?"
(Wise octopus) "It would seem it doesn't suit her."
(Lina) "Hey! Don't whisper!"
*whiz...stick*
(Gourry) "Oh, another one."
(Letter (Naga)) "And, and, there's also the story of
the child who cried one night because of Lina chan's
smile, and the story of when Lina chan was turned away
at the door of a marriage agency, remember?"
(Xelloss) "She does all sorts of things, doesn't she?"
(Gourry) "It's natural for a child to cry for that."
(Zelgadiss) "It's also natural for her to have been turned away at the door."
(Lina) "Hey! You guys!"
*whiz...stick*
(Ameria) "Merit!"
(Letter (Naga)) "Oh, and then, the funniest story is when Lina chan was deceived by a fox and got soaked all the way up to her shoulder?"
(Zelgadiss) "Deceived by a fox..."
(Gourry) "No way..."
(Xelloss) "So all the way up to her shoulder means..."
(Gourry) "A manure pool..."
(Lina) "It's a lie! Like such thing could be true!"
*whiz...stick*
(Letter (Naga)) "And here's the high point! The story
of when Lina chan's silicon slipped out of place and
she freaked out."
(Xelloss) "Silicon..."
(all) "Ah! I see!"
(Lina) "Don't say that like you're all convinced! Aww aww. [*cry*]"
(Gourry) "Oh...She's crying, she's crying."
(Xelloss) "Yeah, she's crying."
(Lina) "Damn you! If you're blowing the lid that much you give me no choice. I'm going. I'll silence you forever before you say anything else."
(Gourry) "Blowing the lid,' so that means everything was actually true."
(Lina) "Do you want to be silenced too, huh!?"
(all) "N...No..."
(Lina) "Hey, I'm not running nor hiding anymore! I don't know if you're the octopus queen or the octopus cold nuclear fusion, but I'll beat you up."
(Wise octopus) "I'm told calling her from this shore will work..."
(Gourry) "Hey, Lina...You do know the octopus queen, don't you?"
(Lina) "Well...Kind of. I didn't want to meet her if possible...But if she's telling such things, she gives me no choice. Now, come out! Octopus woman!"
(Wise octopus) "Octopus queen! Octopus queen! Some
riot point, fell in a cloud!"
*wave* *roar*
(Zelgadiss) "Is that a huge octopus-shaped golem?"
(Lina) "So you've finally come out, octopus woman!"
(Octopus queen) "OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! You've come without losing your courage, Lina Inverse! Oh, and don't call me 'octopus woman'! I'm more like Shocker [TN: a villains' group appearing in Kamen Rider (Masked Rider)], a transformed human!"
(Lina) "Shut up! I got frightened, but you forced me to come here! And I'll tell you just one thing."
(Octopus queen) "Ah? What?"
(Lina) "It's about that letter. It wasn't me who was deceived by a fox and got soaked all the way up to the shoulder, but you! And what you ate with relish thinking it was a botamochi [TN: a Japanese rice dumpling covered with bean jam] was, in fact, horse dung..."
(Octopus queen) "Don't say!"
(Zelgadiss) "Hey, hey."
(Gourry) "So that means all the other things are about Lina."
(Xelloss) "It's a feud on trivial matters."
(Octopus queen) "A...Anyways, the other day you used me as a shield!"
(Lina) "Eh? What do you mean?"
(Octopus queen) "Don't play innocent with me!"
(Zelgadiss) "I've heard that during the battle of the other day there was a person who stepped in the way of the Mazoku's last attack."
(Ruma) "Ah, I saw that too!"
(Octopus queen) "I suddenly was hit from behind, bumped and bumped, by a black, non solid thing that made me feel confused, and then...!"
(Lina) "Hmm...Even you was caught by the anxiety and despair, huh?"
(Octopus queen) "Well...I got depressed...Just for a second."
(Lina) "Just that!"
(Ameria) "Heh? Dosage popper mine."
(Zelgadiss) "What is it, Ameria?"
(Ruma) "'Her voice sounds familiar,' she says."
(Octopus queen) "I felt that feeling for the first time in my life, but now that I've come back I won't let you do what you like. Say your prayers!"
(Lina) "That's interesting. I'll beat you before you beat me!"
(Gourry) "Which one's the villain..."
(Xelloss) "Well, one is as bad as the other."
(Octopus queen) "OHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! You think it's that
easy? I've outsmarted your Drag Slave. This
octopus-shaped golem was specially strengthened
exclusively to be anti-Drag Slave."
(Lina) "What!?"
(Octopus queen) "See, I'm inside this golem. Please go on and try shooting a full-power Drag Slave or whatever."
(Lina) "'A Drag Slave or whatever,' you say? Well, if
you insist...
Darkness beyond blackest pitch,
Deeper than the deepest night,
Golden Lord of Darkness, floating on the Sea of
Chaos..."
(Xelloss) "Li, Lina san, that spell's...!"
(Lina) "I call upon thee here,
I swear myself to thee here.
Let the fools standing before me be ruined..."
(Gourry) "Oh, no. Everyone, take shelter!"
(Ruma) "Wha, What on Earth is that!?"
(Gourry) "Come on, hurry up. Anyway, get out of here!"
(Ameria) "Hens, here I cake!"
(Lina) "By the power thou and I possess!"
(Octopus queen) "Eh!? What's that spell!?"
(Lina) "Giga Slave!"
(Octopus queen) "You'll regret this! HOHOHOHOHO! OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO...OHOHOHOHOHOHOHO..."
(Lina) "Haa, that was refreshing."
(Ruma) "Lina san, your hair's all white..."
(Gourry) "Oh no, she did it."
(Xelloss) "I have nothing to do with it."
(Zelgadiss) "Neither do I."
(Ameria) "Hens? He mimic?"
(Ruma) "Everyone! Thank you very much! This is great, right wise chan?"
(Wise octopus) "Thank you very much! Akasshi's sea is finally in peace..."
(Ruma) "We'll sing for you a brand new song as a reward, 'Evidence of Love'!"
(Lina) "No, please."
(Ruma) "Your heart sucks From my sticky love."
(Wise octopus) "Yes, I'll never let you go. I have no bones, but I have love."
(Ruma) "Eight..."
(Wise octopus) "Tentacles of mine..."
(Wise octopus & Ruma) "They can be eaten in case of
need."
(Wise octopus) "I want to color you with my ink."
(Ruma) "Fu fu fu, you're silly."
(Ruma) "Your kindness entwines me. It's not fair that you have so many tentacles."
(Wise octopus) "My heart's fascinated Just by entwining you."
(Ruma) "We have..."
(Wise octopus) "A hot relationship."
(Wise octopus & Ruma) "We'll get boiled if it's too hot."
("Evidence of Love" Lyrics: Jun'ichi Sato. Music:
Hiroshi Imaizumi.
Performed by Yuri Shiratori and Takahiro Sakurai.)
(Wise octopus) "Ah...It's wonderful, wonderful, Ruma.
Just the right song for the peaceful town of Akasshi."
(Ruma) "It's my pleasure."
(Lina) "Well, peaceful it sure is, but..."
(Ruma) "What?"
(Wise octopus) "What do you mean?"
(Lina) "Ha ha, ha ha ha ha. Nothing really, but...When this spell is used all the living things nearby...Can't live there anymore."
(Wise octopus) "Eeeeh!? What will happen to the octopus race residence?"
(Ruma) "And the fishermen from Akasshi?"
(Lina) "Ah...I created again a sea where nothing can live...I guess it's the story of Lina chan and the uninhabited sea."
(Ruma) "No way! What are we going to do!"
(Wise octopus) "A...Ah...And Wise octopus said, 'Akasshi has no sky'..."
(Lina) "You sure get depressed in a literary way. They
don't call you Wise
octopus for nothing."
(Ruma and Wise octopus) "S...Stop messing around!"
(Lina) "He he."
(Octopus queen) "I...Is...Is this...The end...?"
(all) "Yes! The end!"
