- - Ange has Maria's diary
- - Ange "When I opened the diary, the characters, which were made fairly skillfully considering that this was an elementary schooler, were packed close together even though it was written on every other line.

- - Phone rings
- - Rosa is out late and Maria is playing with Sakutaro

- - Ange thinks that Sakutaro is a real friend and not just a distraction
- - Ange thinks that the secret is within Maria
- - Maria says that Ange has the qualifications to become a witch
- - Maria says that Ange is already touching a fragment of magic by having summoned Maria
- - Maria says that it is possible for them to have a conversation at any time

- - Ange is discovered behind the school
- - Yay! we are done with the Maria scene
- - Still in 1998
- - Skyscraper and new character
- - He asks about Ange jumping off the building
- - Apparently there was a safety net on the side of the building since there was remodeling going on on the building
- - She had apparently survived even though she went through the safety nets and a banner
- - The person talking with her says that she is surely Kinzo's grandchild, trusting her life to luck
- - The person asks why she doesn't return to the Sumadera family
- - Ange "I heard that Mom had a bad relationship with her family" (ok, is she talking about Kyrie? Did she have a bad relationship with her parents? If so, why was Ange left with them when she was sick?)
- - Ange "I don't want to go to the house of peopl I first met at a funeral." (Does that mean it might be Hideyoshi's family if she is refering to Eva as 'mom'?)
- - So it was Kyrie's family and Ange was only on good terms with her Grandpa
- - Kyrie was the same, only on good terms with the grandfather
- - Strict old family from Kyoto
- - The grandfather was almost hated by the grandmother
- - Eva is dead now
- - This person says that they 'think of [Ange] as [their] true grandchild'
- - So this person might be an executive in the Ushiromiya business (calls Eva the chairman)
- - Ange "The old gentleman was one of those leaders who, after Eva had passed away, had been entrusted with the business group she had built up."
- - This person was a business friend of Hideyoshi and Eva and had later become a close friend of Eva and a confidant of sorts
- - Executive Guy "That crime was, ...no, that accident. If I call it a crime, I'll get in trouble. ...I have the same questions about that as the public and the talk shows."
- - Ange "...At the time of the accident, why was Eva oba-san in a place 2 kilometres away from the mansion, all alone?"
- - They think that Kinzo was unable to choose who would be the next successor and so he designed this game so that it might not be Krauss
- - This executive thinks that maybe Kinzo always planned on having Eva as the head
- - Exec "There was no need for anyone to solve that epitaph. Once it had been displayed for an appropriate amount of time, Kinzo-san would just call Eva-san, who he truly wanted to succeed him, (dotted) and give her that answer."
- - Exec "On that day, Eva-san was called by Kinzo-san, and that was revealed to her. And so that she could succeed the head, he called Eva-san to the hidden mansion Kuwadorian, which only the head knew about
- - Ange "And because Eva oba-san arrived at the hidden mansion one step ahead, she escaped harm in that accident, you say? Maybe Eva oba-san just killed everyone and made it look like an accident so that she could steal all of the wealth, and that's why only she escaped unharmed."
- - The exec points out that the head ring was brought back by Eva which indicates that she had Kinzo's trust
- - Exec "Possibly,...she might have committed murder just once in her life to grab this chance to have the Ushiromiya family wealth all to herself. ...But you know, I don't think that's true."
- - The exec also points out the fact that Eva's family was killed too
- - Ange (narration) "The servants who escaped harm by being off-duty on that day also stated that they hadn't seen anything strange regarding anyone related to the event, Eva included."
- - Ange doesn't believe Eva and the exec does
- - Ange refuses to believe because she hates Eva (c'mon Ange be an actual detective for once)
- - Oh great, now the exec is talking about love
- - Exec "...Depending on whether you feel love for the other side, the way you see things is completely different."
- - The exec says that truth doesn't exist except in extreme circumstances
- - He then says that even if it does exist whether or not you believe it is determined by whether or not you have love or not.
- - Exec "Can you really call truth without certainty truth?"
- - Exec "So it's pointless to investigate anything more, correct? Because (dotted) the truth inside of you is already decided."
- - Exec "Without love, the truth cannot be seen."
- - The exec's name is Okonogi
- - Ange says that she's made appointments with several specialists and people related to the crimes so that she can investigate further
- - Okonogi's secretary comes in and hands him a memo

- - Okonogi "...Everything in this world is ... love, you see..."

- - The Sumadera family is declining

- - One person was still in the car and holds Ange down
- - And yet another person appears; Amakusa
- - This person, Amakusa, helps Ange into a getaway vehicle and takes her away from the Sumadera family
- - Full name of this guy: Amakusa Juuza
- - Ange says that she may need him for a while so that they can investigate Rokkenjima
- - The people with the Sumadera family report that Ange has escaped
- - Kasumi vaguely threatens Okonogi with torture too
- - Kasumi is still a bitch
- - Kasumi decides to send the police after Ange
- - Kasumi says that Ange is just like Kyrie
- - The car in the basement parking lot was Amakusa's
- - Okonogi didn't sell Ange out
- - Ange "Because paranoia told me that it was better to guess that he had sold me out, I supposed and (dotted) decided (end dots) that 'he had sold me out'
- - Ange asks Bern what truth is
- - Bern says that truth is unfixed
- - Bern says that truth can change it's appearance by being observed
- - Ange says that Schrodinger's cat is just armchair theory and that you just have to open the box
- - Bern says that she's right but in order to deny the abstract theory you need to open the box
- - Bern "It is impossible to negate any idea about the contents of a box that cannot be opened. This is what truth is."
- - Ange "In other words, if it isn't exposed, any reckless statement can suffice as truth."
- - Bern "I wonder what you could learn. ...This is something that can only be done by the person who is able to walk around freely in the world of 1998, 12 years in the future, the final witch, ANGE Beatrice."
- - Ange compares this idea to the fact that we don't know about the death of stars until long after they are already dead
- - Ange "The false truth that exists before the light from an exploding star reaches Earth is almost like the conspiracy theory, which is the human theory."
- - Ange references the wine bottle with the message in it as the thing which painted over that theory and introduced the witch theory
- - Ange says that the witch didn't exist until she was 'observed' years later by humans thanks to the message
- - Ange freaks out momentarily that Beatrice satisfied the Devil's Proof by sending the message in the bottle, denying all other possibilities
- - Bern says that the message is something that is only observed by ANGE not Battler or Beatrice
- - Ange admits that she has thus far dismissed the witch theory
- - Ange and Bern are now going to read the message bottle
- - 2:51 October 4
- - Eva remarks about how Nanjo said that Kinzo would live 3 months last year
- - Nanjo says that he only spoke from what he had determined at the time
- - The other siblings want to see Kinzo
- - They want to see him to see how he is doing
- - Eva, Rosa, and Rudolf all group together in saying that, since Kinzo doesn't have long to live they should be allowed to talk with him one last time
- - Natsuhi says that they could talk with Kinzo if the topic really was a greeting
- - Natsuhi says that Kinzo does not wish to talk with them since all they are after is the inheritance
- - Krauss knows about the financial situations of all of them
- - The children are again at the beach
- - Eva almost tackles Krauss but Hideyoshi intervenes
- - Kyrie starts speaking
- - Kyrie says that Krauss has had to have the job of taking care of Kinzo this whole time
- - Kyrie says that since Krauss takes care of Kinzo he should be acknowledged as the successor
- - Eva objects but is shut down by Rudolf
- - Kyrie "Krauss nii-san. ...If you would accept just a few conditions, we won't ask you to let us meet Father again until he dies. Of course, we won't tell you to let us see him at the moment of death. ...We could even be absent at the funeral."
- - Kyrie lays out the conditions:
- 1. "The term successor to the head refers to the caretaker of the current head, Ushiromiya Kinzo."
- 2. "The duty of the caretaker is to look after Ushiromiya Kinzo for the rest of his life. To make things simple, the caretaker's job is to care for him until his final moments."
- 3. "On the off-chance that the caretaker is neglectful in his responsibilities of supervision, he is deprived of his rights as a caretaker."
- - Krauss doesn't like this condition
- - Krauss asks what these responsibilities are
- - Kyrie "It measn supervision so that Father can live the rest of his life in the best possible health."
- - Kyrie "In the case that Father dies anything other than a natural death, the caretaker's rights as a caretaker are deprived, and his status as the successor to the head is lost. In that situation, the next highest ranked, Eva nee-san, will be selected as the successor."
- - Krauss says that old people can sometimes die by accident, like choking on food and that this would mean that he would bear responsibility
- - Kyrie says that it would only be the kind of thing that the caretaker could prevent by taking good care of Kinzo and keeping their eyes on him.
- - Kyrie says that a case would be if Kinzo disappeared
- - Kyrie says that if Krauss tries to say that Kinzo disappears into the forest one day, as an example, the other siblings won't accept that
- - Kyrie says that everyone has suspected it before now
- - Heeeeyyy! It's the theory that Kinzo is already dead and there is a 19th person occupying his slot.
- - Battler "It wasn't guaranteed that (dotted) the 18 names of people = the 18 people on the island."
- - Ange "There are several conditions for the person who was used to hide the name of the culprit. ...First of all, even though they weren't on the island, they were someone who we believed was on the island."
- - Ange "And it would be desirable for that person to be dead. ...After all, no alibi exists that is more perfect than death. Because at that point, the mystery was based on the fact that it was impossible for all 18 people."
- - Battler "Repeat it!! If you can announce that the 18 people on the island included Grandfather, just try and do it!"
- - Beatrice "Shall I slice that in two with the red truth? No, no, it might also be good to hold back for now and let you get all excited."
- - Beatrice is refusing to repeat things in red since it doesn't benefit her
- - Ange "The witch has no responsibility to respond when you tell her to repeat something. But it does become her responsibility only when your claim can destroy the witch theory. Because in this trial court without a judge, that which is not refuted becomes the truth."
- - Ange forces Beato to say that Battler's arguments must be countered by midnight on October 5th in one minute
- - Beato forces the same restrictions on Battler's side. They must have a counter for the mysteries presented
- - Beato "When explainint my magical murders with human tricks, you can state things in blue. I am responsible for countering your blue with the red by the end of the game."
- - The blue has to deny witches
- - Battler figures out that he can use multiple theories at the same time (wow! much think, very reason)
- - Battler uses the blue
- - Kyrie has nicely cornered Krauss
- - Kyrie "The only way to (dotted) kill him without an autopsy (end dots) would be for him to disappear."
- - They say that they don't need Krauss to sign anything just to pay them security money
- - Kyrie says to pay 3 billion yen to each of the siblings and to deposit the first 10% by the end of the year
- - Hideyoshi says that if they just talk with Kinzo then there is no reason to worry
- - Krauss "...I understand that all of you strongly desire to meet with Father. ...I will pass that on to him. ...I'll convince Father somehow so that he will meet with you. ...How is that?"

- - Jessica says that at that age Natsuhi had always been telling her to study
- - George says he was the same but he realizes now that it was for his own sake
- - Gretel (Ange) drops a cup on the ground
- - Gretel had probably actually thrown the cup from how violently it shattered
- - Nobody understands why she got so upset
- - Ange talks with Maria who doesn't understand why Ange is so upset

- - It's Maria's diary
- - Maria is saying that Ange is trying to paint things over with her own version of truth
- - Shows phone conversation between Rosa and Maria
- - Rosa says that she won't be able to come back home for a while. Rosa had forgotten a promise to go to the movies with Maria
- - Rosa tells Maria not to tell teachers or other adults that she isn't coming home
- - Diary "Mama works so much overtime that she doesn't come home until late. ...Because she had a date or something she always came home after drinking a lot of alcohol, even though it wasn't strong, and with a pale face, she would go straight into the shower and then to bed."
- - The diary also says that Rosa had overtime on the weekends and had to stay over and almost never came home
- - Sakutaro says (I feel weird writing that) that Rosa probably does love Maria
- - Sakutaro "I remember when Mama spent the whole night by your side, crying."
- Maria "Yeah. ...Didn't understand why Mama was crying, ...but Mama was so sad, ...and Maria couldn't do anything but stay silent by Mama's side."
- - Sakutaro "I remember the last thing Mama said then. ...She said 'thank you, Maria'. ...Mama said that just by being by her side, you were her only ally in the world."
- - Sakutaro says that they should have a pajama party and that Maria should welcome Rosa back with a smile
- - Maria has the party and writes a letter to Rosa saying that they should share their happiness
- - Maria says that she was happy which Ange questions
- - Ange interprets things very differently
- - Maria says that Ange is sad
- - Maria says that even thought there is a fact about a pajama party written in her diary different people will take it differently
- - Maria tells Ange to stop trying to paint over a happy 'truth' with a sad one

- - There is also a background to go with the figures
- - Maria takes Rosa's coat
- - Something falls out of the pocket of the coat
- - A receipt or ticket stub falls out of the coat
- - Diary "It looked like a ticket for the Green Car or the Shinkansen or something. ...Atami? Wasn't that a famous place for its hot springs...?"
- - Rosa hits Maria for seeing the stub
- - Quick Wikipedia search says that Atami was also famed for its onsen geisha. Basically, bath house prostitutes. Chances that Rosa is actually a clothing designer is pretty low right now.
- - Sakutaro says that Maria didn't do anything wrong and that Rosa will go back to normal after she has had a shower
- - Maria says that Ange is looking for happiness in the wrong way. Ange says that Maria is the one who is wrong
- - Maria is kind of fooling herself and making up excuses so that she can be happy
- - Maria says that people who can't find happiness right beside them won't be able to find it at all.
- - Something about Tyltyl and Mytyl looking for the blue bird
- - Maria "You're the complete opposite, Ange. You're searching for a world without a Fragment of unhappiness. But even that's the same as the blue bird. So you will be unable to find your happiness for all eternity. ...Battler is Hansel? He isn't the blue bird...?"
- - Rosa sees the letter that Maria had left her and goes out and hugs Maria

- - Beatrice says that Sakutaro (dotted) moves by his own will.
- - It was natural to Maria for stuffed animals to have life
- - Maria was able to give birth to a being with a soul. Beatrice says that this is very difficult
- - Beatrice "I see, that which Kinzo desired above all else seems to dwell most strongly within you."

- - The two witches say that they will make Sakutaro materialize more strongly
- - Beato takes the grimoire (diary I think) from Maria's bag.
- - Virgilia "...When it comes to writing documents of power, this child's talent is splendid. It seems you could even work as a secretary in the spirit world."

- - Sakutaro became a boy/girl
- - Narration "Then, when that light disappeared... ...There, Maria's friend Sakutarou held a new form and (dotted) existed."
- - Beatrice says that there is no need for thanks and that she and Virgilia are doing this out of respect for Maria's magic and out of respect for Sakutaro
- - Beatrice "From this point forward, you may call yourself MARIA, the Apprentice Witch of Origins."

- - It's aight. Her stick is way too big for her though

- - What is this Mariage Sorciere that Maria keeps talking about? Is it her diary?
- - 1998
- - Somebody is talking in a restaurant
- - Person "Yes, I will never forget that. It happened in April of 1987. I received a certain strange request from a friend. ...There was a large collection of books, which were the former possessions of a very rich man and were being sold at auction, and it was thought that some of them might have been extremely valuable to the study of archeology and folklore, as well as in an occult sense, so this friend wanted to witness their worth confidentially."
- - So this person looked at the books half a year after the events at Rokkenjima

- - Narration "However, at that point, not even half a year had passed since the accident, and despite the extraordinary circumstances, it was not established that the others had been missing long enough to be presumed dead."
- - It looked like Eva was in a tight spot financially since it looked like she couldn't collect any money from the deaths
- - The Ushiromiya library contained many vital documents which had never been found before.
- - The professor says that this discovery made Rokkenjima famous around the world. It also shocked people that similar books were probably lost in the accident
- - The message in a bottle that was found had the same effect as the library; it made the island an occultic place
- - A young fisherman found a wine bottle with a letter in it apparently
- - The letter, from the handwriting, looked like it had been writen by a different person. Not Maria as the message claimed
- - It does seem like it was written by someone more skilled at writing and older than Maria
- - Narration "However. Later on, it was confirmed that a similar message bottle had been recovered from the nearby ocean on the day of the accident by the police in their search for lost articles, and this caused a sensation."
- - Ootsuki "It seems that, due to evidence from the surrounding area and the fact that the bottle was sealed, the police had decided that its likelihood of being a fabrication was low and that it had been abandoned no earlier than a few days before the accident. And the handwriting for both matched."
- - Ootsuki asks if Ange needs an explanation of the contents of the bottle and Ange says that she knows about it more or less (damnit Ange)
- - Narration "Many scraps of paper had been stuffed into both of the wine bottles. It was an extensive notebook written by someone calling themselves Ushiromiya Maria who wasn't Maria, and which told of the events starting the day before the accident and up until the day of the accident in a diary-like way."
- - The contents of the diary had the title of the 'Witch's Legend Serial Murder Incident.'
- - It also had the title the 'Golden Witch Beatrice's Puzzle'
- - The diary tells about how the family were pinned to the island by the typhoon and were caught in a resurrection ceremony and killed one by one in inexplicable ways.
- - Former servants at the house confirm that whoever wrote it was someone who knew the details of the island
- - People still try and land on the island even though it was forbidden to try and find out what went on and look for more bottles.
- - Ange says that the fisherman's paper and the police's had completely different contents.
- - Ootsuki says that she is correct
- - Even though the bottles were of the same two days and written in the same handwritting they were totally different
- - Only the beginnings and endings of the two accounts are the same
- - Ootsuki "In the beginning, the 18 people including the relatives are sealed up on the island by the typhoon. And in the ending, everyone dies, the Golden Witch is revived, and everything is flung into the Golden Land."
- - In both diaries the murders are outlined but in different orders (though both follow the witch's epitaph), and die in different ways. Even the 'tale of the two days' was different.
- - Witch Hunt is a bunch of people who try and explain the events of Rokkenjima from an occult perspective
- - A convention was held on the 10 year anniversary in NY
- - Ange wonders why they would use a message bottle to write out their 'truth'
- - Why multiple different stories of what happened
- - Ange describes the amount of writing as 'massive'. She finds it hard to believe that someone in the midst of serial murders could calmly write all of that down
- - In both tales from the bottles, Eva had been a victim
- - Ange "If the writer of that diary was the culprit... ...Maybe Eva oba-san was also one of the targets to be killed. Eva oba-san had survived because (dotted) something had gone wrong."
- - Ange ends the discussion
- - Ootsuki "I have many precious materials that I couldn't show you because of this change to a different venue from the usual. I should be glad to show you them at the next chance we get."
- - Ange asks why Ootsuki is interested in the occult and demonology
- - The Professor says that he would like to use magic so that he wouldn't lose to bullies and that he would like to become one even now even though he knows it is impossible
- - Ootsuki "It's my pet theory from my few experiences with women that they are all witches."
- - Ange asks if Ootsuki has seen the messages himself
- - He says that he has and that he is familiar with the handwriting
- - Ange shows him Maria's diary and turns to a paragraph that starts 'to my beloved witch apprentice' and is signed at the end in katakana Beatrice (notice that the katakana would make it BEATRICE)
- - He recognizes it
- - She pays him but he just wants to study the book
- - He calls her Sumadera-san
- - Ange and Amakusa are talking in the car
- - Ange asks to sleep
- - Ange told Ootsuki that she was Sumadera in order that people would give her information (the Sumadera family basically put a bounty on her head)
- - Report from Sumadera employees "According to the family, a young man and woman calling themselves Sumadera visited this morning, took the professor out with them and still have not returned."
- - Ange is pissing of Kasumi (good job Ange)
- - Ange is staying in an expensive hotel that is very confidential so as to escape her persuers
- - Ange remembers having her name listed down with the witches

- - Amakusa says that the sofa is more comfortable than his own bed recently
- - This takes place at 2 am
- - Maria pops out in her new outfit

- - Ange checks that nobody is watching and that everything is quiet
- - Maria is saying that the anti-magic power is overwhelming Ange with her power as weak as it is
- - Maria says that practice as a child is worth more than practice as an adult; Ange brings up Kinzo
- - Ange takes out 'a shady-looking stake-shaped weapon with an occult design inscribed on it.'
- - Ange confirms that it was one of THE stakes
- - Ange pulls out another book which she says is another one of Maria's notebooks
- - Ange says that this is a grimoire that Maria had written as a witch
- - There is quite a bit about this 'alliance' and Mariage Sorciere
- - Ange says that the seven stakes were Beatrice's furniture but, becuase she and Maria are part of an alliance they can both summon them
- - The one that Ange has is Mammon's stake
- - Ange "Mammon. The fifth sister. Controls the deadly sin of greed. ...An incredible kid."
- Maria "Greed also controls aspirations, the desire to improve oneself, and the strength to live. It definitely doesn't mean only bad things. ...She's rude, but she's a girl who tries really hard."
- - 'Knowledge is tied to magic power.'
- - Maria warns Ange that she is no longer protected by the alliance and give Ange a talisman. She also says that Mammon may still bear a grudge
- - Ange chants the line and uses magic
- - The stake rises into the air and flies around the room
- - The stake tries to go for Ange's forehead but is stopped by the magical talisman
- - Mammon says that she can't get through
- - When Mammon realized that she couldn't kill Ange she gets docile
- - The stake calls Maria Lady MARIA
- - Mammon says that if MARIA is telling her to obey Ange then she won't refuse
- - Mammon "Furniture is furniture because it is used. It is an honor just to be summoned. Ange-sama"
- Narration (Ange) "Mammon had a slightly complicated smile on her face."
- - Mammon is discontent with Ange being so weak
- - It may be that she had some other reason to dislike Ange
- - Mammon would like Ange to summon the other sisters
- - Narration (Ange) "No matter how badly they are exploited, being used is a furniture's joy.
- - Ange agrees to try and summon as many of the sisters as she can
- - Ange doesn't have a vessel this time around so she has to strengthen her image from the grimoire
- - Ange is going to try calling Asmodeus
- - Asmodeus is the sin of lust
- - Asmodeus is summoned
- - The next sister is Beelzebub
- - Beelzebub is the sin of gluttony
- - Beelzebub is summoned
- - Next is Belphegor of Sloth
- - Belphegor is summoned
- - Mammon "So keep that promise! If you don't, I'll never forgive you for forgetting that until today, Ange-sama...!"
- - Satan gets summoned next
- - Narration (Ange) "Even though I've forgotten those days. Even though I hadn't thought of those days as anything but sadness and loneliness. ...Because certainly... the short time I've spent with them, ...was fun, without a doubt."
- - Satan "We are furniture who have been granted rest by Beatrice, and whose duty has been finished! Not only are you not honored at being given another chance to be of some use, but you're putting a burden on our new master, you disgrace of furniture!! Erase yourselves right away!!"
- - Mammon and Beelzebub want everyone summoned
- - Ange gets overwhelmed with the effort and collapses
- - Ange falls asleep
- - Maria and Sakutaro welcome Ange back 'home'
- - Ange had apparently accepted the power of witches back in Saint Lucia Academy.
- - In order to use magic you have to 'imagine a vast space'
- - Sakutaro asks why
- - Maria says that from birth humans have a toxin that blocks magic. She says that if this is not purified then you can't use magic well. She says that imagining the space achieves this purification
- - Maria says that the mental world has to be isolated so telling someone else about your mental world means that you aren't isolated anymore. She says that you can't reveal you mental world to anyone
- - Ange manages to imagine something big and vast by pushing the ground below her away.
- - Sakutaro says that she's stepped into the world of witches
- - Maria says again that, because Ange is in the Mariage Sorciere, she can summon things from other witches.
- - One of the pacts of the Mariage Sorciere "Mutual nonaggression and noninterference"
- - Maria wants to transfer control over to Ange
- - Lucifer suggests that Ange may not be able to handle it
- - Maria says that it is part of her training
- - Ange accepts the challenge
- - Sakutaro says that if Ange starts getting a headache she should lower her magical power
- - Ange "Until then, the inside of my head had only been used for myself. It was almost like it was now being used for seven other people."
- - The sister's noise and presence is burdening Ange too much
- - Only one person is her limit
- - Mammon is the only one left
- - Mammon "Then please train a lot and cultivate your magic power a lot. Then someday, for sure, please bring the Seven Sisters together and let us serve you. Promise?"
- - Sakutaro says that they have to go back or they will get scolded
- - Ange was sitting in a bathroom stall reading Maria's grimoire
- - Maria appears again
- - Maria tells Ange to bring Mammon with her as part of her training
- - Ange and Mammon leave the bathroom and go into the corridor
- - The girls at the Academy have to be there for roll call and if someone isn't there then all the girls on the floor have to take responsibility and do volunteer work
- - Mammon says that it feels like a prison
- - Mammon "These guys, all of them are sheltered brats. Feels like they aren't even alive."
- - Ange "So I'll train much, much more, ...then take the thing that I really want to call to me, ...and summon it."
- - Ange wants to summon her family
- - Ange's hair accessory is something to remember Battler by and so it can become her vessel for summoning him
- - Ange "Long ago, without telling Dad, I went with Mom to meet Onii-chan, and we went to play at an amusement park. ...This is a prize from the crane game there."
- - Flashback to getting the hair accessory
- - Ange "The processof grabbing happiness with my own hands felt very important and sacred to me."
- - Ange "With his arms that were longer than mine, Onii-chan grasped the happiness that I couldn't reach."
- - Mammon "The Witch of Resurrection, Lady ANGE...!"
- - Ange says that the seven sisters form a single whole and that none of the family can be left out
- - Hey, we're finally back to Ange being upset at Maria and Rosa
- - Ange feels someone's presence: it's Mammon
- - Mammon has been sent by Beatrice to bring Ange back
- - Mammon seems to have some kind of pain from trying to say something
- - Narration (Ange) "Mammon moaned as if she had bit her tongue, staggering as she clutched her chest. Apparently, the rules apply to people other than me as well."
- - It looks like Mammon just froze in the middle of leading Ange back to the game
- - Lambdadelta pops up now
- - Ange says that the rules don't apply to Lambdadelta and she confirms it (apparently having to do with calling Ange by her name)
- - Narration (Ange) Even compared to Bernkastel, there's something strange about Lambdadelta's existence."
- - Lambda says that she wants to tell Ange something good. Ange refuses to listen
- - Lambda "My opponent is Bern, not you. ...In other words, it is possible for there to be a topic that benefits both you and I."
- - Lambda "I just came to resolve your misunderstanding. ...No, that's not quite it. I came thinking I'd inform you about the lie Bernkastel told you."
- - Lambda says that Bern made it sound like Battler would come back if they won
- - Lambda "That kid is surprisingly cruel. (dotted) To think she'd deceive you, even though she knows."
- - Ange remembered Oct 6. She had been playing with building blocks and had gotten a call at her Grandfather's house
- - Lamda "HEY. ON YOUR OCTOBER6, 1986, DID BATTLER ONII-CHAN COME HOME?"
- - Ange doesn't understand what Lambda is saying
- - Lambda is saying that the Ange that she is talking to is an Ange from a future where Battler does not return home. In other words, if she succeeds she still will not have Battler released in her world, only in another world.
- - Lambda "You aren't Ushiromiya Ange. You're a witch's piece with that name. Strictly speaking, the name ANGE Beatrice belongs to a completely different person."
- - Lambda "No reward has been prepared for you in this battle. No, to the contrary, when smashed, Beato's game board will disappear. Then (dotted) you, as a piece, will disappear."
- - Ange is getting overwhelmed by Lambda. She is now questioning who she is and saying that she is ANGE not Ange.
- - Lambda "You know, Beato does want to win a bit. Victory by making Battler surrender. But that's actually a problem for me."
- - Lambda "After all, if the game ends, the closed room will fall apart. ...So I'll go easy on Battler to a certain degree, so that he does not surrender. Don't worry, alright? When Battler's about to surrender, I'll become his ally."
- - Lambda says that Bern threw Ange in to break the deadlock
- - Lambda wants Ange to continue the tie for all eternity so that she can be with Battler always
- - Lambda tells Ange to become her piece so that the game can continue
- - Lambda says that she'll clear the rule that binds her
- - Lambda says that on his own Battler won't be able to win against Beato
- - Leviathan and Asmodeus are playing around with Mammon's donut
- - Satan tells them off
- - Mammon "I like learning things that no one else knows. I like being able to do things that no one else can do. So I like studying and practicing."

- - Maria asks if resurrection of her family is really Ange's goal
- - Maria says that Ange shouldn't doubt or it will become the toxin

- - They start playing shiritori
- - Ange is enjoying this happiness and wants to add the rest of her family
- - Ange apparently got a bad grade on the test
- - The other girls in her class bully her for her low test score
- - Ange thinks she didn't study as hard as she could have
- - Ange says that the reason that the other people in her class are studying so hard is because of the collective responsibility and because they hate volunteer work.
- - Mammon "It's probably because, instead of working hard themselves, it's easier to make you work hard and earn them a higher class average to satisfy their greed."
- - More imagery from the Divine Comedy
- - The girls in Ange's class apply for a study group during lunch and afternoon to harass Ange and make her study
- - The other girls talk about having a cooperative personality
- - They say that they are doing this for Ange's sake
- - They make Ange write a letter of regret for bringing the test score down harass her all the while
- - Ange is made to stand and read it out loud
- - All of the magical friends are with Ange in the background
- - Some of the sisters want Ange to snap
- - The sisters feel sympathy for Ange
- - Ange tells the seven sisters to kill all of them
- - Ange now thinks that all of magic is empty since they wouldn't kill all of girls
- - Ange "You're nothing but a delusion inside my head"
- - Ange next orders Leviathan to kill them. Leviathan doesn't do it right away. Ange kills Leviathan
- - Satan says that the anti-magic power there is strong and that is why.
- - Ange asks what use they are if they can't kill humans
- - Satan is the next to die
- - Belphagor is the next to go after saying that Ange doesn't have the power and that killing the girls will make the situation worse.
- - Ange calls them all worthless and kills Beelzebub and Asmodeus
- - Mammon says that furniture can only do what their masters are capable of. Mammon says that if Ange kills then they will follow suit
- - Ange says that she told them to do it because she can't do it herself
- - Ange says that they were all phantoms and that she hasn't had a friend ever.
- - Mammon "Yeah that's right! We're an illusion inside your head, Ange-sama, but so what? Yes, that's truue! We're just imaginary friends created to soothe lonely, lonely Ange-sama's heart because she doesn't have a single friend, but so what? If you want to look at reality, just look at it. You can stop looking at us and return to being surrounded and bathed with jeering over there!!"
- - Mammon says that Ange is abusing them in the same way she is being abused
- - Sakutaro asks if the Sisters are dead
- - Maria "It looks very gruesome, but those are the remains of the vessels after being deported from the human world. They're shells that have been shed."
- - Ange says that she wants Maria and Sakutaro to disappear by themselves because she doesn't want to kill them herself
- - Crazy face Maria
- - Maria is protecting Sakutaro from Ange's denial
- - Ange continues to deny Sakutaro saying that he is just a stuffed animal
- - Maria tells Ange to stop
- - Flashback to some other time with young Ange and Maria (?)
- - Y. Ange "Maria onee-chan, you're we-ird!! There is no Sakutaro-! Stuffed animals are stuffed anima-ls! I learned from Mama that they're made of cloth and co-tton!! There's no way they can walk or ta-lk!!"
- - Young Ange denies that stuffed animals have life and Maria gets super upset at her
- - Maria says that she hates Ange and that they are through
- - Maria says that she won't let Ange be one of the witches anymore
- - Maria "Upon my name, the Apprentice Witch of Origins MARIA, I hereby expel the apprentice witch ANGE from the Mariage Sorciere Alliance of Witches...!!"
- - Ange gives in to the bullies
- - Narration (Ange) "I acknowledged that I had slipped into the world of my daydream, trying to remain separate from the others in my class."
- - Ange says that she should have died in 1986
- - Ange "But even so, ...my soul that was killed is still locked up inside this cage of flesh."
- - Ange asks the girls in her class to kill her
- - None of them do so Ange concludes that reality and daydreams are the same
- - A teacher comes into the room
- - The teacher saves her
- - Maria "...If Ange believes that is the only way to become happy, then it is the only way. ...If she cannot accept the blue bird in the cage for what it is, ...then she must go and search forever."
- - Wonderful... another Maria scene... great... kill me...
- Ok, side tangent for just a sec (sorry to anyone reading this). Ryukishi, what were you thinking? Seriously, I don't care. I really don't. I don't mind you introducing Ange. I'm fine with shaking things up. Hell, you introduced new characters in the last episode so why not here, right? But seriously, stop trying to cram all these slow scenes in at the very beginning. I'm tired of it. Take me back to the action. I want to see some logic battles. I want some murders to solve. I want some red vs blue truth action. I want Beato to cackle. I want to see some characters that I've become attached to do some things. I want you to stop trying to cram several episodes worth of characterisation into one long beginning of an episode. I'm tired of Ange. I'm tired of the lack of information for a lot of these scenes. I'm REALLY tired of Maria and Sakutaro (really? ANOTHER character that makes a 'cute' sound all the time?) and I just want to get some hard information about the mysteries. I want to be done with these scenes. I'm really not ok with all this. Spread out these scenes dammit. Don't create this dense, slow wall of Ange/Maria magic bullshit. Give me SOMETHING to keep me going. I know there are some scenes that are ok in there but your spacing out the COOL scenes not the SLOW scenes. The slow has taken over and it's making it hard to read. I'm just really tired and need to get some anger out. I expected better, Ryukishi. I really thought that you could pace better than this. Did Higurashi teach you nothing about pacing? Seriously, cut this shit out.

- - Maria denies this

- - Ah, Maria has forgotten the key somewhere
- - Maria says that it was in her pocket partway through the trip back from the store
- - Narration "Something that should have been there... wasn't where it was supposed to be. Why isn't the key there, when Maria didn't do anything wrong?"
- - Maria throws a tantrum
- - Narration "It wasn't her fault. So it's someone's fault. But Maria didn't know who that someone was, and could do nothing but continue to let out a moan of anger."
- - Sakutaro convinces Maria to retrace her steps to look for the key
- - Maria gets all the way back to the store and hasn't found it. She asks inside the store and they haven't seen it. She then returns home and still doesn't find it.
- - Maria tries again and goes back to the store
- - The man asks if she still can't find the key and asks if she's tried talking with the police
- - Maria "...Mama said not to talk to policemen, even if they start talking to Maria."
- - Maria tries one more time and this time when she gets back to the store there is a police man
- - Maria doesn't talk with the police man at first.
- - The police man takes her to the polic box, heats up her dinner and talks with her about Sakutaro

- - The place where the police man is calling from is the Komatsugawa Police Department police box in front of the Senbonzakura Station.
- - The person who talks with the police man says that Rosa is on vacation
- - Receptionist "Yes. Starting yesterday, the president has been on a three day vacation."
- - Another person in the background "Heard she was going for all you can eat crabs in Sapporo with her boyfriend. Aaaw, I'm sure such a cold place would do wonders for shrinking the distance between them, don't you~?"

- - The police officers question her about herself

- - Rosa is talking with the welfare officer
- - Rosa, talking like that to a welfare agent is a good way to lose your kid
- - The welfare agent seems to have suggested taking Maria and putting her somewhere else
- - Rosa says that Maria is delicate and that other kids might cause her a lot of grief (no.... really? ya think?)
- - The welfare officer points out that if Maria is so delicate then should she really be home alone like she has been

- - Sakutaro gets brought up when the welfare officer mentions the fact that Maria has been seen with her
- - Rosa workers said that she was in Hokkaido with her boyfriend but Rosa says that she was working.
- - Rosa screams at the welfare worker to get out
- - At this point Maria sees Rosa in her fury and thinks that it couldn't be her mother
- - Maria thinks that it is some evil thing posessing her body
- - Rosa gets mad at Maria for taking her lion with her (and presumably making herself recognizable)
- - Teacups breaking all over the place
- - Maria is apparently voicing Sakutaro during this and this makes Rosa madder because it is how people remember Maria
- - Maria starts to speak using Sakutaro. Rosa tells her not to do that and smacks her. Maria then goes back to the whole 'Sakutaro isn't a stuffed animal' schtick
- - The school knew that Maria was bringing toys and overlooked it because they knew that they were Maria's only friend. However, then other kids started to complain that only Maria could take animals with her
- - Rosa takes one of the rabbbits and smashes it against the wall
- - Rosa says that if Maria disobeys her again then she will break another one
- - Wellfare officer "Miss... you think to call yourself a mother after doing something like that?!!"

- - Beatrice appears repeating Maria's name in caps
- - Maria asks Beatrice to bring Sakutaro back to life
- - Beatrice says that, because it is Maria's furniture it will be difficult to bring Sakutaro back to life
- - Beatrice "Sakutarou's vessel was a stuffed animal Rosa made herself, correct...? That Rosa has denied Sakutarou. ...A life that is not permitted by its own mother cannot exist..."
- - Beatrice says that as long a Maria believes that Sakutaro exists then his soul will not disappear
- - Maria throws a fit
- - Maria doesn't understand why Rosa made the lion and then broke it herself
- - Narration "From the darkness behind Maria's back, two massive jet-black arms crept out, twisting around Maria as she sobbed in anger. Then massive fingernails stuck into Maria's chest and stomach..."
- - Maria can't see it but Beatrice can
- - Narration "Anger and sadness without any place to go will tear you apart. ...Beato knew that. She could see that. Yes. ...In the end, those massive arms were Maria's own. Those fingernails slowly started to eat into her chest and stomach..."
- - Maria says that if Sakutaro can't be brought back then she wants revenge
- - Maria wants to kill Rosa
- - Beatrice "Very well. I shall give you that power. ...FOr tearing you and your beautiful heart apart... for giving you that pain, it is fitting that your heartless mother be torn apart considerably."
- - Beatrice "I shall teach you of the abyss in the world of witches, of the depths where no light reaches..."
- - End scene and we are back to 1998
- - Ange is on a boat
- - Amakusa is on the deck doing some stretches
- - Ange had come up on the deck holding Maria's diary which she had just been reading
- - Ange "I'm not so naive as to seriously think that the truth of 12 years ago will be revealed."
- - Ange is looking at her rooftop experience in a more worldly light, without witches
- - Ange says that this journey is only for her own sense of self-satisfaction
- - Ange "People work hard when they want to be acknowledged by someone. ...In most cases, that someone is their parents. Children learn how to work hard because they want to be praised by their parents."
- - Amakusa says that it doesn't matter who or if someone praises you. It only matters if you can accept it
- - Amakusa "The anguish of the human world comes when you want someone to acknowledge you, but you don't know what it is you should be striving for. I had a time like that too. I wanted someone to acknowledge me, but I didn't know what I wanted them to acknowledge about me."
- - Amakusa goes back inside to see the captain leaving Ange alone on the deck
- - Mammon appears and says that life is nothing without greed
- - Ange says that because people have a limited life span you can't just want your entire life
- - Mammon says that people would then be living only so that they can have a better death (satisfied death)
- - Ange says that people don't know who should be acknowledging them
- - Ange "The ultimate in self-fulfillment is acknowledging yourself."
- - Amakusa, according to Ange, is on bad terms with his parents
- - Ange (probably talking about Maria) "I've described her as an abnormal kid, as a little strange. However, ...that wasn't rue. She did nothing but stick her chest out, ...so that she could finish that journey faster than anyone else."
- - Ange thinks that that is what made Maria amazing
- - Maria thinks that for something to be happy it only had to be happy for her and other people's opinions don't matter
- - Ange "Whether magic exists, or not. ...That's not up to other people to decide. It's up to your yourself."
- - Ange "Mariage Sorciere is the Witches' Alliance Maria onee-chan created."
- - Ange (talking about Maria wanting to share magic with people) "So when no one would understand magic together with her, she closed herself up in a shell."
- - Mammon points out the fact that, if Maria could accept herself, then it wouldn't have mattered about Ange denying her (THANK YOU MAMMON! SEE? SOMEONE GETS THE INHERENT ABSURDITY OF MARIA!)
- - The magical alliance was built up so that witches could acknowledge each other.
- - Ok... I'm not going to even get into the bad philosophy going on here. Descarte and shit idk
- - Ange thinks that the journey she is on now is to apologize to Maria for denying magic on that day.
- - Ange "I don't know why, but that's what I think. ...If I hadn't hurt her, ...the incident 12 years ago might not have occurred. ...That's what I think."
- - Ange has no basis for this thought
- - Ange thinks that maybe this was for her benefit. Beatrice is showing her that magic does exist
- - Ange revives Sakutarou
- - Ange says that whether or not magic exists does not depend on her but on someone out there in the world believing that magic is real
- - The stakes are frustrated that Ange is trying to deny witches even though she has potential to be a great witch
- - Ange "Yeah, whether magic exists (dotted) to me (end dots) or not that's up to me to decide. Whether magic actually does exist somewhere in the world or not, you see?"
- - Ange is saying that magic could exit in someone elses world but that it might not exist in hers
- - Ange (thinking) "Because I acknowledged them, they (dotted) showed their reunion's joy to me as well."
- - Ange questions why Maria wasn't able to summon Sakutaro anymore
- - Sakutaro says that Maria had decided that he had died when she saw him torn up
- - Mammon says that if MARIA had decided that, in her world, Sakutaro had died then he can't exist in her world
- - Ange says that after that event the contents of Maria's diary and the purpose of the alliance changed to how to curse people you hate
- - Ange says that Maria's diary showed Maria die and 'be reborn as the evil witch personality MARIA.'
- - Ange thinks that the only way to atone for denying witches to Maria earlier is to revive Sakutaro in Maria's world
- - Narration (Ange) "Amakusa is carrying what looked like a quite large and heavy golf bag"
- - Ange does not ask what is in the bag but imagines that it can't be anything peaceful
- - Airplane noises again
- - Kasumi is at the airport escorted by some armed guards
- - Kasumi knows that Ange is heading to Rokkenjima
- - The guards are armed with automatic pistols
- - 9:48 Oct 4 1986
- - Typhoon time
- - Shannon in the lead, Battler holding umbrella, Jessica, George and Maria (asleep on George's shoulder) going back to guest house
- - Battler tells Shannon she can go back now but she says that it is her duty
- - Battler says that they were chased out
- - George says that staying out of their way is probably the best idea for right now
- - Jessica thinks they are just talking about money
- - George says that Shannon isn't greedy at all since most girls her age have lots of things that they want to buy
- - Shannon "I guess. But none of the things I want can be bought with money."
- - Jessica starts teasing Shannon about these things that can't be bought
- - George asks Jessica about if she is able to get closer to Kanon
- - Narration (Battler?) "Apparently, the family head, Kinzo, was personally going to be making a very serious announcement, and everyone other than the adults had been strictly ordered to leave."
- - It says Battler's name in third person. Not Battler narrating right now
- - According to Jessica, tense atmosphere tonight
- - Battler thinks that his theory is torn apart and Beatrice gloats
- - All of the relatives and Nanjo in the dining hall
- - Nanjo is alone
- - Krauss is in his seat with Natsuhi standing by his side
- - Other siblings gathered at the opposite end whispering
- - Rosa says that Maria told her that the person who gave her the umbrella was Kinzo
- - Eva thinks that it might have been a trick with Kinzo luring them into openly arguing about the inheritance
- - Eva is kind of falling apart
- - Kyrie says that she doubts whether Maria actually got the umbrella from Kinzo
- - Hideyoshi "However, what was it that Maria-chan said? 'Grandfather came, and then handed me the umbrella'."
- - Kyrie says that the whole issue of the umbrella is pointless really
- - Rudolf says that the time is almost 22:00 (why is he talking about time like that? That's really weird to use military time)
- - Krauss "...Calm yourself. We won't get anywhere by making a fuss after all this. ...Let's leave it to Genji-san."
- - Multiple sets of footsteps can be heard
- - There's a knock
- - Gohda and Kumasawa appear
- - Gohda says that he's finished closing up the house
- - Kumasawa says that staying up late is still one of her specialties.
- - Krauss "...The order was to gether all of the servants as well. I cannot disobey."
- - A single set of light footsteps is heard
- - Shannon appears
- - Genji and Kanon were apparently going to meet Kinzo
- - A very loud knock is heard
- - Narration "Both Genji and Kanon were usually very reserved when they knocked. They wouldn't hit the door with such a violent strength."
- - Genji appears and takes a tone of voice that indicates that he is speaking for Kinzo
- - Everyone sits down in their seats and the servants stand along the back wall
- - Genji "...The head of the glorious Ushiromiya family, and lord of Rokkenjima, the island that sparkles gold. Lord Ushiromiya Kinzo is present."
- - Genji opens the double doors along with Kanon. Genji opens the right door from the inside and Kanon opens the left door from the outside.
- - Kanon and Genji bow as Kinzo appears
- - Hard to believe that Kinzo was at the end of his life
- - Kinzo laughs.
- - Kinzo "Welcome to Rokkenjima, ladies and gentlemen. Why the frightened face, Evaa?"
- - Kinzo says that he is disappointed that none of them had been able to solve the epitaph
- - Kinzo says that he will suspend the use of the epitaph choosing the successor.
- - Kinzo says that Krauss will not succeed him
- - Kinzo "The next head isn't something that's guaranteed by the current head at all!"
- - Kinzo "The next head? That's what you call someone who finds everyone else who's after the headship, thoroughly breaks their noses, and makes it so that they can never disobey again."
- - Kinzo says it's the same thing with money. A rich person is someone who crushes those who have more money than him
- - Kinzo says it's the same with talent. A genius is someone who crushes those with talent and coerces those with talent to call them geniuses
- - Kinzo says that neither Eva, Rosa nor Rudolf are his successors.
- - Kinzo has both times used the word 'no' in English
- - Kinzo says that they were unable to corner Krauss and so they aren't fit either
- - Kinzo "In order to get what you want, you should pay all sacrifices, become as covetous, as greedy as possible...!! The goddess of luck smiles upon the greedy!!"
- - Kinzo says that he's lost the desire to hand his fortune over to anyone and so the Ushiromiya will end with his generation.
- - Kinzo "The current Ushiromiya family is nothing but an illusion of gold I have seen for an instant. ...The likes of which will end when I awaken from my slumber. Everything in this world is a dream, an illusion. ...Life is but a daydream before the awakening called death."
- - Kinzo says that losing everything was Beatrice's contract and curse
- - Kinzo "Foolish children such as yourselves are truly a daydream! It's as though you were never there from the beginning!! Disappear! Wake up!! Disappear from the doze of the truth that is me...!! Your failures that have not built up anything that makes you worthy to succeed me!!"
- - Nanjo asks to speak
- - Kinzo allows it
- - Nanjo "Because you love your children, you expect a lot of them, and as a parent and grandparent myself, I understand the parental affection that can make you feel as though these expectations were betrayed."
- - Nanjo says that Kinzo is a genius and asking his children to be on his level might be asking too much and that they've tried their best
- - Kinzo "Money is the crystallization of everything in this world. If you cannot grasp that, then you cannot grasp the world! If a life cannot strongly grasp this world, it doesn't deserve to live!!"
- - The siblings cheer on Nanjo
- - Only Nanjo can talk to Kinzo in a rage
- - Nanjo says that the siblings have built up families
- - Nanjo "Remember your joy when they first brought back their grandchildren...!"
- - Kinzo asks Krauss if Jessica is worth 10 billion
- - Natsuhi answers that she is
- - Kinzo asks the same thing to Eva
- - She brags about George
- - Kinzo asks the same of Rudolf
- - Rudolf says that Battler is an idiot but that he thinks Battler will be able to do things that no body else could do
- - Rudolf goes on to say that Battler's life will be more pleasant than looking at 10 billion average people."
- - Kinzo asks about Maria
- - Rosa says that Maria's value can't be measured
- - Kinzo "Dreams and the future, miracles and possibilities are the source of my magical power. No magic without hopes holds any power."
- - Kinzo says that the siblings may not be worth anything but that the grandchildren might be with the hope of the future
- - Kinzo says that it would be interesting to question the grandchildren to see if they are qualified.
- - Eva immediatly says that George is worthy
- - Kinzo says that he will individually question the grandchildren to see if they are worthy
- - Kinzo says that this does not mean that they will get anything. He says that he won't give them anything.
- - All of the siblings agree to this decision
- - Kinzo says that he will think of how to test them and that has nothing to do with the siblings
- - Kinzo says that he will talk about something that concerns them though.
- - Kinzo says that the true reason for this conference is cooperation for Kinzo's ceremony
- - Kinzo had been known to have ceremonies before. One of which was burning a strange incense and filling the house with the stench
- - Kinzo says that the ceremony is to revive Beatrice and open the door to the Golden Land.
- - Kinzo "I have said that I shall choose 13 people from among the humans on this island and offer them as sacrifices for the ceremony to revive Beatrice."
- - Nanjo "Kinzo-san, ...you weren't...possible...serious about what you said back then...?! It wasn't a joke?!!"
- - Kinzo tells Nanjo that it wasn't a joke
- - Kinzo "Yes, this is a game! If gaining my fortune and leaving the island is your goal, then there are only two ways to achieve it! Will you escape being chosen as one of the 13 sacrifices and spectacularly survive, by finally solving the riddle of the epitaph and stopping the ceremony, ...or will you kill me! And thereby stop this ceremony. Those are the only two ways!!"
- - Kinzo "To all of you, what will occur now before your very eyes may seem like a dream, an illusion, something that couldn't conceivably be of this world, and a world that defies understanding."
- - Kinzo summons the Pendragon Memorial Troops (bunny girls)
- - Siesta 45 appears
- - Siesta 410 appears
- - Siesta 00 appears
- - Kinzo says that they are allowed to kill 6 people at random
- - 410 fires and gold loci is drawn everywhere hitting Natsuhi in the left half of her face
- - Kinzo "Natsuhi was it? A luckless woman to the end."
- - 00 fires too hitting Rudolf
- - Now everyone reacts and starts to run and scream
- - Hideyoshi comes to his senses faster than anyone else and tries to pull Eva away
- - Hideyoshi gets killed next
- - Krauss runs at Kinzo but 00 holds him back
- - Narration "[Krauss] still tried to resist and attack Kinzo so 00 lifted Krauss by the nape of the neck, and twisted into his Adam's apple with her thumb. It seemed to be very painful, and Krauss was overcome with agony."
- - Nanjo says that they have to escape and that seems to wake people up
- - Gohda and Kumasawa try and escape but 410 blocks the way
- - Kyrie tries to swing a chair at 410 but 410 catches it
- - Genji, Kanon and Shannon stand silently by the wall
- - Kyrie thinks that this is because they are with the enemy but then Genji is killed by 45
- - Kinzo "You will become one of the 13 keys essential to the resurrection of my beloved witch."
- - Kanon "...We're nothing more, ...than the witch's pieces. ...Nothing more... nothing more..."
- - Narrator says that Kinzo was in the truest sense carrying out these murders at random
- - Eva is killed next by 410
- - Rosa swings a chair at Kinzo
- - Narration mentions how, if she had had this bravery before she would have had a life that was more free and unrestrained
- - There is a 'bursting sound'
- - Rosa is killed next by 00
- - End result (in the order Kinzo gives them) "Eva, Rudolf, Rosa, Natsuhi, Hideyoshi, and Genji"
- - Kinzo says that he will introduce them to his friend, Ronove
- - Ronove appears
- - Ronove "Pleased to meet you, everyone. And good day to those of you I haven't seen for a long time."
- - Ronove "I am pleased to make your acquaintance." Narrator "Just who was he aiming that introduction at?"
- - Kanon and Shannon seem to recognize Ronove
- - Kinzo then brings up Virgilia
- - Virgilia "...Thank you for summoning me, Master."
- - Kinzo calls her his friend and reliable counselor
- - Kinzo calls her the Witch of the Finite
- - Kinzo says that he can still summon many more people when Ronove and Virgilia remark at his summoning capability
- - Kinzo summons Gaap
- - Virgilia "Gaap...? You can even summon her...?"
- Ronove "It probably means that the corrosion has advanced even more on this island."
- - Virgilia and Ronove seem to say something about Battler not surrendering
- - Ronove "Well then, shall we enjoy this stage? It seems the main character is the Master this time. Let us expect a script of a different flavor than Milady's"
- - Drill hair demon appears with a sound like glass breaking
- - This is apparently Gaap
- - Gaap asks what is going on "Is this Pandemonium?"
- - Kinzo says to capture those who survived
- - Kinzo tells Gaap to throw them into 'the cage of sacrifices'
- - Krauss is 'swallowed up by the floor'
- - Kyrie, Kanon and Shannon are next
- - 410 jumps back from the hole sucking up Kanon and Shannon and so Kumasawa and Gohda are able to escape the room
- - The Siesta Sisters ask permission to fire on the two escapees
- - Kinzo says that it is too early for the second twilight
- - Kinzo says that it is what the source of his magical power says which Virgilia reminds us is 'noise and rise and tests of luck'
- - Virgilia "In other words, it means being fickle, it seems."
- - Gaap says that she can't understand the very idea of playing with risk
- - Welcome back Beatrice
- - Beatrice "So, that man who can be more persistent than anything when he follows you around, can shine so when on the stage."
- - Ange says that Beatrice has noticed that this way of killing is 'ideal'. Battler asks how it is ideal
- - Narration (Battler?) "By now, perhaps there are more demons than humans among the characters appearing in this insane tale. ...Their numbers might be the thing that represents this mad corrosion."
- - Gaap calls Beatrice Riiche
- - Gaap says that Beatrice looks younger and then looks at Battler and says that she understands
- - Beatrice says that she's violating the closed circle idea
- - Gaap is fashion conscious apparently
- - Ange says to remember the first game with the shed
- - Review: Rudolf, Kyrie, Rosa, and Gohda had their faces smashed; Krauss and Shannon had one side of their faces smashed
- - It was apparently easy to identify Shannon and Krauss
- - Beatrice states that her strategy for this game will be using as little red as possible
- - Beatrice says that she killed this way so that the identity of the victims could be known without having to use the red
- - Scene change
- - Rosa regains consciousness
- - It seems like Rosa has been sleeping on something cold and hard
- - Rosa sees a lot of darkness but she herself is lit
- - Rosa is all alone right now
- - Rosa hears footsteps
- - Sakutarou is approaching Rosa
- - Rosa feels as though 'her chest is being torn apart'
- - Sakutaro tells Rosa to come with him and that she shouldn't be here
- - Everytime Sakutaro says 'Uryu' Rosa feels pain
- - Rosa feels pain in her forehead when Sakutaro apologizes
- - Rosa "I'm only able to be me because Maria's there for me...!"
- - Sakutaro "...Maria is here, ...but she's not Maria now. It's better if you don't meet with her now. That's better for you sake and Maria's as well."
- - Rosa gets a hole in her hand when Sakutarou touches her
- - Sakutarou's neck is sliced and blackness comes out.
- - Rosa hears a shriek
- - It seems like Rosa remembers the scene from when she ripped Sakutarou apart
- - Rosa first feels sorry and tries to apologize and cry with Maria
- - Maria pushes her away
- - Now Rosa feels angry and like it's Maria's fault
- - Rosa is comparing herself to Maria and thinking that she never threw a tantrum like Maria is doing
- - Rosa "It's because I held it back THAT I WAS ABLE TO BECOME THE WONDERFUL ADULT I AM NOW!!!"
- - Rosa had been hitting Maria's head with both hands. She looks down and sees that her hands had broken off and splintered and disappeared
- - Rosa freaks out about her hands (lol the sprite)
- - Maria appears
- - Maria is pissed
- - Black silhouette appears behind Maria
- - Beatrice appears behind Maria
- - Beatrice "Since an arm could pat her daughter's head, flip through a picture book, and make warm meals, ...I thought it might be alright to leave it."
- - Maria says that those things don't happen
- - Maria says that Sakutarou was a more important friend than Rosa
- - Beatrice asks if Rosa is guilty. MARIA says that she is
- - When Rosa gets ripped apart black thick tar comes out of her
- - Beatrice asks if Maria can forgive Rosa now. Maria says that she can't
- - Beatrice restores Rosa back to life
- - Beatrice want's Rosa to remember her 'great sin'
- - Cut to Rosa and Maria talking on the phone and Rosa saying she had to stay over for her job
- - Maria says that she understands and for Rosa to do a good job
- - Maria "Maria knew... That evening. A pay-on-delivery package came for Mama, but there wasn't enough money in the wallet, so Maria called Mama's company to ask what should be done. ...Maria had been told only to call at special times, ...but thought it would be bad if the package was something important for Mama's work... So Maria called."
- - Maria was told that Rosa had the day off by the people at work
- - Maria "Maria was told that it had been decided long ago that Mama would have the day off, ...and that she had gone far away to play. ...Maria knew. The whole, whole time, ...Maria knew that Mama was lying...!"
- - Maria says that Sakutarou had always said that Rosa wouldn't do that
- - Rosa has a brief conversation with someone who asks why she doesn't tell Maria what is going on.
- - Rosa "But that way, we'd never get our schedules to match... Didn't I say not to worry about that?"
- - The boyfriend is a 'slender, middle-aged man clad in a white robe'
- - Rosa complains about the noisy drunk laughing stupidly in the lobby
- - Rosa is super thirsty
- - The boyfriend says that always wanting to be with someone is a child's way of lovemaking and that adults should be a bit more stoic
- - Rosa "...Did you get back on good terms with your wife? ...Looks like you've started to dislike being separated."
- - Rosa thinks this he is like this because she is a single woman with a child
- - Rosa's 'Usotsuki' isn't as good as Rena's
- - Wow, Rosa calm down
- - Back to the magical scene Rosa says that Maria was always in the way
- - Rosa says that if Maria wasn't there then she could have grasped her happiness long ago
- - Rosa says that she wanted to have a happy family but 'that guy' disappeared right before Maria was born. Rosa was tricked into having Maria
- - Rosa says that Maria has been holding her back from getting love and making it so she has to live alone
- - Damn, Rosa is SUPER thristy
- - Rosa hates the guy who got her pregnant
- - Rosa remembers the Parent's Day in Maria's school (I think mentioned in ep. 2)
- - Rosa had just broken up with a guy the day before
- - Beatrice calls Rosa ugly and that Maria should sever any connection with her
- - Rosa's upper body is crushed
- - Rosa has the center of her chest crushed
- - Maria had tried to think that Rosa didn't think of her as a burden but now she believes that Rosa thinks of her that way
- - Maria kills Rosa over and over
- - Beatrice keeps asking if MARIA forgives Rosa. Maria keeps saying no. Rosa keeps saying that she hates Maria
- - Maria is going a bit crazy
- - Whoah, scary Maria!
- - Maria says that Sakutarou can't be fixed because Rosa won't acknowledge him. She then says that the broken her can't be fixed because Rosa won't acknowledge her either
- - Beatrice welcomes Maria into the world of witches
- - Maria says that she is now the apprentice Witch of Origins, MARIA
- - Scene change to the guest house
- - Battler is startled by thunder
- - Maria wakes up (so that whole last scene could have been Maria's dream?)
- - Battler tells Maria to go back to sleep and that she's half-asleep anyway. Maria gets upset by this for some reason and starts yelling that she isn't half-asleep
- - Maria starts throwing a tantrum (and just when I was starting to feel bad for Maria, *sigh*)
- - George tries to calm Maria down and tells Battler and Jessica (who are fighting over who is to blame) to guiet down
- - Maria laughes in her creepy way after glaring at Battler
- - Narration "Instead of a laughing, it seemed more like she was muttering while considering, or else counting, each 'hi'. As though each time she said 'hi', something brutal would happen over and over."
- - George feels something creepy
- - Maria "Don't need it. But forgive you. ...Because Maria's a witch."
- - The time is now past 10:30
- - The cousins can hear a 'clearly unrestful knock that repeated fiercely' as well as 'Gohda and Kumasawa's voices.'
- - Gohda and Kumasawa come in sopping wet
- - Gohda "It was, it was...!! The Master and Krauss-sama, and everyone, awawawawa"
- - 10:32 pm
- - Pitch black room
- - There's a weak lightbulb and multiple people (uses 'them')
- - Some kind of underground storehouse with some dusty furniture thrown in
- - The room is sealed off with iron bars
- - Kyrie asks where this is
- - Krauss says he doesn't know and he wonders if it's in the mansion
- - Krauss "Was there this kind of room... directly underneath the dining hall...?"
- - Narration "They had dropped into what appeared to be a pit, and (dotted) fallen (end dots) into the room. Therefore it was appropriate to think that this room was directly under the dining hall."
- - Krauss couldn't bring himself to believe that there were pitfalls rigged in the dining hall
- - Narration "But the ceiling above was of crude stone craftmanship, ...and they could not understand how they could have fallen from somewhere up there. No, all five people who had been dropped here thought the same thing."
- - Narration "Although they had had the sensation of falling into a pit, ...there was no way there could be pitfalls in the dining hall, nor could this dungeon-like place be directly under it. ...But, the truth was that they actually had fallen into this place and were locked in. ...And so ...they had been confused."
- - Nanjo says that it is lucky no one was hurt falling from such a height
- - Krauss asks if Kanon or Shannon knew about this room
- - Kanon says that neither of them knew about this room
- - Kyrie asks if that's true
- - Shannon confirms
- - Krauss "...No, it's probably true that you don't know. Afterall, this is the clean-freak Shannon we're talking about. If she knew about this room, she'd probably scrub this place until it was sparkling."
- - Krauss says that Kinzo is 'hopeless now'
- - Narration (who is narrating?) "And, Kinzo had even been so bold as to proclaim that we would become sacrifices for a ceremony involving 13 murders. ...Since we've been locked up in this place, we too will probably become the ceremony's next sacrifices soon."
- - It's not furniture in the dungeon, it's cages, restraints, and torture racks
- - Shannon says that Gohda is reliable and Kumasawa is knowledgeable and calm and that they may be a help to the children
- - Kyrie is sad about losing Rudolf but is putting that aside to protect the children
- - Kyrie pulls a lighter out of her pocket
- - Narration "She herself didn't smoke, but she kept one tucked away in her pocket to light Rudolf's cigarettes."
- - Kyrie wonders if there is a drug that can make people instantly faint
- - Kyrie says that the dungeon cannot be underneath the dining hall. Shannon asks why. Kanon says that she's an idiot and that the dungeon is too narrow.
- - Kyrie is saying that there is a large difference from where they landed to where they fell. And Nanjo says that the distance between Krauss and Kyrie is too big.
- - Nanjo clarifies what Kyrie is thinking, saying that they might have been attacked by something that knocked them out instantly (blowdart) and only remember the instant they fell to the floor.
- - Shannon has a watch that reads 22:40
- - Kanon says that his watch says the same
- - Kanon says that it hasn't been more than 10 minutes since what happened in the dining hall.
- - Krauss says that his watch says the same and that it's much to much time to knock them out and drag them somewhere (but were your watches tampered with? Honestly people, think)
- - Kyrie thinks they may have tampered with the watches (Bless you Kyrie)
- - Nanjo says that he can't prove that there's not but he doesn't know of one
- - Some of the bars can be twisted and rattle around but not enough to get out with human strength alone
- - Kyrie finds some stones that could be used as weapons
- - Shannon finds a phone
- - Kyrie doubts it's connected
- - Kannon "...What are you doing, Nee-san."
- Shannon "Ah, ...um, ...I just wondered if maybe the phone was w, working..."
- Kanon "...You dummy, Nee-san. (*whisper*)"
- Shannon "Eh...? ...Huh?"
- - Shannon says that the phone is connected
- - Krauss says that it must be bugged
- - Kyrie thinks that there is a good chance that they actually forgot this
- - Kyrie says that she is going to make a call and tells Kanon to look out for people
- - Kyrie dials 110
- - Kyrie tries to dial many times but it doesn't seem to be working
- - Krauss tries instead
- - They were unable to contact the police
- - Kyrie still cannot believe the mass murder just before
- - Kyrie "...There's no way that's what happened. ...Those were obviously Grandfather's friends, or something. ...They just hid somewhere in the dining hall beforehand and used some tricks to appear suddenly and fool us."
- - Kyrie thinks it must be some kind of explosive that smashed their heads
- - Narration (Kyrie) "The family conference had started a bit after 22:00. It's only been about 30 minutes since then."
- - Krauss is getting agitated at the phone
- - The inside line has been severed but not the inside line
- - Krauss calls the guest house
- - Gohda talks to him
- - Gohda tells Krauss that Jessica is safe and unharmed
- - Jessica asks if Natsuhi is alright
- - Krauss chokes on his words
- - Narration "There was no doubt for Krauss anymore. When Gohda and Kumasawa had met them at the guesthouse, Jessica and the rest had heard everything, start to finish..."
- - Krauss was relieved that he had called them before they went off to the mansion
- - Krauss "We have Kyrie-sn and Doctor Nanjo, as well as Shannon and Kanon here. We've been locked in a place that's like a dungeon, but don't worry. We'll figure something out."
- - Krauss "Unfortunately, we can't figure out where this is either. We think it might be under the dining hall, but that might not be true. ...Anyway, Jessica. You mustn't leave there. You've heard from Gohda what happened?"
- Jessica "Yeah... Grandfather...-ed... everyone..."
- - Krauss "Grandfather isn't in a sane state of mind right now. It'd be dangerous if you happen to meet him. You might be killed! You mustn't even think about trying to come and save us...! We'll take care of ourselves."
- - Jessica "Damn you, Grandfather, how dare you do that to Mom and the rest...! I'm gonna kill that worthless bastard...!!"
- - Jessica starts crying
- - Krauss tells Jessica to stay in the room with the large window on the first floor and make a baricade with a bed. He says to stay holed up there for the day and says not to do anything dangerous and not to try and take revenge for Natsuhi
- - Kyrie speaks with Battler, George speaks with Shannon and Jessica speaks with Kanon
- - Everyone from both sides had a turn with the reciever (Maria?)
- - Krauss tells Jessica to be near the phone so she can pick up quickly.
- - Gohda and 'the rest of the men go down to the first floor and secure the shutters and the strong locks on the doors.
- - George "...It's likely that Grandfather and his followers will be armed. Locking ourselves in this room is our best bet, and moreover our only method of staying locked down."
- - Gohda "You mean about how the Master has a collection of working guns. ...That's right, guns, that was a gun... If so, ...it's a horribly powerful gun...!"
- - Gohda apparently told Battler about the 'ceremony' and sacrifices
- - George says that Battler still has Kyrie and George still has Shannon
- - George points out that nobody knows where they are
- - George asks Gohda again if Kinzo has armed subordinates. Gohda "Y,...yes, that is correct. ...And they're probably... all armed..."
- - Gohda did NOT say anything about the subordinates being girls who may be witches killing with magic
- - Maria offers Kumasawa some tea but Kumasawa refuses
- - Jessica asks Kumasawa if Natsuhi is really dead
- - Kumasawa "I've never seen such a ...horible way to die before..."
- - Kumasawa "I... it's not possible for the head to have such a thing happen to it... and live..."
- - George comes back bringing non-perishable food and drinks
- - Gohda comes back bringing carpentry tools and a ladder. Barricading and escaping the window if necessary
- - Battler comes back bringing weapons. Table leg and pole about the size of a person from a broken hat stand which could be used as a spear
- - Battler sets up a barricade upstairs that will create noise to warn people if they try and come in from there
- - There is a little light coming out of the shutters

- - Shannon asks if it's human
- - Kanon says it's the goats, he thinks.
- - Shannon wonders about the fact that they were captured and not killed. She also thinks it strange that Beatrice didn't appear
- - Shannon "I wonder if this time we will be able, ...to go to the Golden Land."
- Kanon "Who knows. We have a high rate of losing."
- - Shannon says that it's very rare for both of them to survive the first twilight.
- - Shannon "I get the feeling that it's incredibly unusual for us to be able to talk together like this even though the ceremony has already begun."
- - Kanon says that the whole thing of people being chosen at random is just a lie
- - Kanon says the idea of having any wish granted in the Golden Land is probably a lie but Shannon says that it's a wonderful place
- - Shannon says that she's been there just for a little bit
- - Shannon says that the Golden Land was a place where you wouldn't wish for anything
- - Shannon says that the Golden Land is a land of zero. No negatives but needs positives, like having someone you love there.
- - Kanon finishes talking with Shannon and hears someone coming
- - Large group of people walking is heard
- - Kyrie had asked what the time in the guesthouse was and it is the same as the watches so their watches were right.
- - Kanon says that there's probably 4 people
- - Kyrie has Shannon hide the phone under her skirt
- - The people approach with a lamp: Kinzo, Ronove, Virgilia and Gaap
- - Ronove announces Kinzo
- - Nanjo asks where they are. Kinzo "Oh, my friend, can't you remember? Certainly, you may have never entered the prison, but you should remember walking through this corridor."
- - Nanjo says that the distance is too great and that it's physically impossible
- - Nanjo asks if it's the basement of Kuwadorian
- - Ronove says that it is
- - Krauss seems surprised that it exists
- - Kinzo "This mansion was constructed for the sole use of my beloved witch, Beatrice."
- - Kyrie makes a joke about Kinzo and Beatrice in a house with so much space and that Kinzo and her tastes don't line up

- - Gaap says that she doesn't want to be loved, she wants to love
- - Nanjo says that he knows the underground tunnel in Kuwadorian
- - Kinzo didn't come to kill any of them yet. He wants to test the grandchildren first
- - Kinzo says that the children are the embodiment of the parents. Kyrie says that the same goes for him
- - Kinzo "Though you can insult me with such vigor. I don't dislike that kind of woman, see? Beatrice was that kind of woman too, in the beginning."
- - Kinzo tells Krauss to call the children to tell them about the test
- - October 1998
- - They are at the doctor's office that Nanjo had founded.
- - The old doctor there was Nanjo's son
- - Nanjo's son is very indifferent
- - Nanjo Masayuki "...even my father, who was Mr. Ushiromiya's doctor and friend, was approached by many with a wholly regrettable interest. All of it was without proof, and also, defiled all of my father's previous achievements. I still feel a great deal of resentment towards all of that."
- - Masayuki calls it an unfortunate accident
- - Ange sympathizes with him and wants to know about the incident because of the media's bludgeoning
- - Ange thinks that Masayuki's whining is stupid
- - Masayuki relents
- - Masayuki says that Kinzo and Nanjo's relationship stretched back to when Kinzo first moved to Rokkenjima
- - Masayuki says that their relationship had a lot to do with chess
- - Masayuki says that Nanjo was probably not there to talk about the distribution of wealth but because Kinzo's health was so bad
- - Masayuki says that Nanjo was probably trusted by Kinzo not to leak the secrets of the conference
- - Kinzo's medical charts have been lost
- - Ange asks if he noticed anything strange
- - Masayuki says that there may have been however he says it may 'result in a misunderstanding' so he doesn't want to talk about it
- - The doctor tries to beat around the bush but eventually swears Ange to secrecy and tells her
- - Masayuki "The truth is, several days after that accident, I received something by mail at my home."
- - Masayuki "It was very curious. The sender was made out to be me, but I had no memory of it. Someone had faked my name and sent it."
- - Masayuki "The destination was Rebun Island in Hokkaido."
- - Excluding Northern Territories this is the northernmost tip of Japan
- - The recipient was apparently on Rebun but the recipient's name was Nanjo
- - There was a problem with the destination address and sent back to the 'sender', Masayuki
- - Ange asks what was in it
- - Nanjo's corpse had not been found
- - Ange wonders if he is still alive. Masayuki says that he wondered the same thing but he says that the envelope's destination doesn't exist
- - Ange asks if there is a chance that the sender wrote the address incorrectly
- - Address "Hokkaido, Rebun Island, Rebun County, Rebun City, 1-2-34-567."
- - Masayuki "They probably wrote a nonsense number which clearly didn't exist. I think it's natural to assume that, from the very beginning, this envelope was sent to a non-existant residence to (dotted) it had no chance of being delivered."
- - The stamp was postmarked on Oct 3
- - Postmarked on Niijima
- - It's possible that the envelope was supposed to be returned to sender
- - Inside the envelope: Small folded letter, a small key with a number plate (A112) attached, magnetic card.
- - The magnetic card was black with gold characters engraved on it
- - 'Members' in English
- - Inside the letter: 07151129 as well as the name of a massive bank and the words 'Central Branch'
- - Masayuki "...It's a card, a key, and a PIN for a safe-deposit box. And it wasn't a normal safe-deposit box either. It was an unsettling one, which was apparently reserved only for special clients."
- - The security for the deposit box was very high
- - When the card was read there were several safes that he had a right to open which were lit in green. There were several safes which were lit in green (about 20 Masayuki thinks), one of which was A112.
- - Inside was a safe drawer with an expensive-looking duralumin (aluminum-copper alloy) case inside
- - The case was carried into a seperate room where the clerk left and Masayuki got to see the contents
- - Inside was cash
- - Masayuki estimates that there was about 100 million yen in cash
- - Obviously something wrong with this (why store cash rather than open an account)
- - Masayuki says that he hasn't touched it and he returned it to the original safe
- - Ange asks to borrow the envelope. Masayuki tells her no and to just view it here
- - The person who sent the letter has the same handwriting as the person who wrote the paragraph in Maria's diary
- - Ange says that something is bugging her
- - Narration (Ange?) "The same envelope and contents had been sent to Kumasawa's son, who had once lived with her."
- - Kumasawa's son had been very busy and had forgotten all about it
- - The sender, again was the child of Kumasawa and the recipient was Kumasawa Chiyo
- - Address "Okinawa Prefecture, Yaeyama County, Yonaguni City, 1-2-34-567."
- - This was at the westernmost tip of Japan.
- - The same contents but the key was to A113
- - Ange thinks that 'most likely' the same contents to the safe are inside
- - Kumasawa's son thought it was creepy and left it alone
- - Ange remembers receiving a strange envelope 12 years ago too
- - The person it was sent to was Ushiromiya Rudolf but Ange can't remember the destination address
- - Ange thought she had gotten a letter from Rudolf and was disappointed with the contents and threw it away
- - Note: Ange can't remember the contents and such very well at all
- - Ange wonders if the purpose of the envelopes was to support the theory that Beatrice was the culprit
- - Mammon points out that the postmark was before the conference
- - So it seems that the sender intended the letters to arrive after the events on Rokkenjima
- - Ange calls the method uncertain. You don't know how many days it will take
- - Sakutarou says that it would be more reliable for the arrival date to be set and and it be mailed that way
- - Mammon says that regardless it would probably arrive Monday or later seeing when it was sent
- - Mammon also suggests that it might be made to seem like a message from the dead
- - Ange says that she would have mailed it to arrive on a specified day
- - Sakutarou says that it really does sound like Beato
- - Sakutarou says that he has only talked to her a little but he can 'pretty much accept that Beato'd do something like this'
- - Mammon agrees that Beato might like a prank like a letter from the dead
- - Sakutarou says he was thinking more about an uncertain method rather than a certain one
- - Ange remembers in Maria's diary that 'Beato sometimes played pranks on the adult relatives with Maria.'
- - Apparently these pranks had a 'touch of witch aesthetics' which meant that it was more interesting if it was uncertain.
- - Wind up car prank doesn't work (Maria and Beato wait in shadows for someone to release the milk jug)
- - Maria says that they should have set it up somewhere it would definitely work
- - Beato "Traps where you don't know who will get caught, or even whether anyone will get caught at all, are more thrilling and interesting"
- - Ange calls Beato a fickle character
- - Ange notices the pictures on the wall, many with Kumasawa
- - Ange remembers her as a cheerful old lady
- - Kumasawa's son says that he doesn't remember anything strange about Kumasawa in the days leading up to the incident
- - Kumasawa's son said that the conference always put her on edge and she let slip about how tough it was
- - Along with the pictures was a picture of 'an enlarged relief of a door from a western-style house or something'
- - There is apparently no subject in the photo
- - Ange gets closer and realizes that some characters had been written out with pen
- - Kumasawa's son says that it's a photo he got when the distributed Kumasawa's belongings
- - He thinks that it might have something to do with the 'Legend of the Gold'
- - English words are engraved in an arch, over the door, with the relief. The pen writing may have been a translation of the English
- - Ange 'This door is opened only at a probability of a quadrillion to one. You will be blessed only at a probability of a quadrillion to one'
- - Ange says that nothing like this shows up in the epitaph or in Maria's diary
- - The son says that there were quite a few pictures that looked like they were from her trying to solve the riddle
- - He also says that Kumasawa was surprisingly fond of 'that kind of thing'
- - Ange says that the riddle is in both the diary and the grimoire
- - According to what Maria wrote it's a ceremony to open the Door to the Golden Land, Beatrice's resurrection ceremony, and Beatrice's succession ceremony.
- - According to Beatrice if you solve the epitaph you get everything including Beatrice's name and power
- - The Ushiromiyas understood the epitaph to be written by Kinzo while the Mariage Sorciere understood it to be written by Beatrice
- - Ange has tried to solve it several times without success
- - La Plata theory and Enoura theory (What are these?)
- - Ange asks if there are any other materials and Kumasawa's son answers that he thinks so but they were split up between him and his siblings
- - Ange next visits a store called 'Marufuku Sleep Shop'
- - The ferryman lived there
- - He had contracted a serious illness
- - The ferryman seems to have a good memory
- - There is still no public way to get to and from Rokkenjima
- - Ange was looking for a boat to take her across and without this guy there may not be a way
- - The ferryman says there aren't many people willing to go to the island and that some people call it by its old name, Akujikishima.
- - The ferryman promises to take Ange out to the island
- - Ange is going back to Rokkenjima tomorrow
- - Sakutarou appears
- - Sakutarou feels bad for the ferryman
- - According to the ferryman the family had been very persistent about the date of the conference even though they knew about the typhoon
- - They'll leave at noon and stay until evening
- - Ange tries to pay the ferryman but he refuses
- - The ferryman offers to let Ange stay but she refuses
- - The ferryman says that he's heard rumors about some suspicious people searching for someone
- - Ange thinks that she might have been going to the island to die there
- - Ferryman "No, I'm sure there's a purpose. If there isn't one for you, ...then there is one for (dotted) them"
- - Ange interprets 'them' to mean her family and Maria and maybe Beatrice
- - A car is heard and honks
- - Ange notices something that the ferryman can't see
- - Mammon says that whatever it is is 'impossible'
- - Sakutarou also wonders what is going on
- - Ange says that it was all fate
- - Ange "Even me visiting this place, ...was fate. ...This is, ...the mission ... and the purpose...that I'm going to Rokkenjima for..."
- - Amakusa asks if anything is wrong and the ferryman says that he doesn't know either
- - Ange asks if they can see anything and Amakusa says that all he can see is a normal display case
- - Sakutarou starts crying
- - Ange starts crying too
- - 11pm
- - Phone is ringing
- - Jessica "...A test...?"
- - Jessica is talking with Krauss
- - The message that Krauss called with was to say that Kinzo wants to hold a test to see if the grandchildren had the qualifications to become the next head
- - Krauss "...The head has said that the next head will not be one of my siblings... that he wants... to pick from the grandchildren..."
- - Narration "From Krauss' restrained style of speech, Jessica relized as his daughter that he was being forced to speak. And she was forced to realize that the hostages were being exposed to danger even now, and that if they refused this test, there was a possibility that the hostages would be harmed."
- - Kinzo says that it would be troublesome to have those unrelated be involved and orders them to be banished from the guesthouse
- - Kinzo says to lock Kumasawa and Gohda in the gardening storehouse
- - Nanjo says that he would like to be moved to a warmer place as it is too cold here
- - Virgilia agrees with Nanjo that it is too cold here and asks Kinzo if it wouldn't be ok to move them upstairs
- - Kinzo denies this request
- - Gaap tells Shannon and Kanon that they could easily break these bars
- - Shannon says that even if they break the bars 'nothing will come of it.'

- - 45 "00... 556 is..."
- 00 "Ah, ...that's right. Sorry."
- 45 "She was such a good kid..."
- 410 "...That's why I don't like them, nyeh. ...Good people."
- - Nanjo and Kyrie see the Siesta sisters teleportation as moving in and out of darkness rather than teleportation.
- - Kinzo asks Ronove and Gaap to be the examiners
- - Virgilia is to watch the prisoners
- - Virgilia summons some goats
- - Kinzo, Ronove and Gaap head off. The goats go with them before Virgilia calls them back to her
- - Kyrie wonders if there are more people than just the 18 that they know of
- - Kyrie is struggling to hold on to her sanity
- - Gohda and Kumasawa were convinced to go into the storage shed
- - The key to the shed would be handed to them when they went inside
- - They also had blankets and food
- - Jessica says that they were told not to go into any unnecessary areas and that they are being watched
- - Gohda regrets not being useful
- - Gohda says that the Master is taking lives like pieces on a chessboard
- - There is a small window on the side of the storehouse. It will onlt admit light and ventilation
- - Gohda takes the key, shows it to Kumasawa and puts it in his pocket
- - Narration "There is only one key to the gardening shed's shutter. That was being held by those who were locked up inside it. If the children had taken it, and had it stolen from them by some chance, that would do nothing but expose the lives of those in the shed to danger."
- - Narration "And even with the key, the shutter could not be opened from the inside. Kinzo's demands were fulfilled this way."
- - It seems like Battler is narating but it is impossible to tell really
- - They don't see anybody watching
- - Jessica mourns her mom and dad and Maria says that there's nothing to worry about since they'll meet in the Golden Land (Screw you Maria)
- - Battler bops her on the head (I knew there was a reason I liked this guy)
- - Jessica yells back at the rose garden that she's going to kill Kinzo
- - 45 thinks that they found her out. 410 taunts her saying that she's too slow
- - Man, 410's laugh is possibly worse than Eva-Beatrice's
- - When the cousins returned and laid down oar their beds the phone started ringing again
- - George now picks up
- - Now it's Kyrie who is on the phone
- - Kyrie says that she's been restrained from speaking freely
- - Kyrie "The test will be carried out by Jessica-chan, George-kun, Battler-kun, and Maria-chan, in that order. ...You'll be called out in turn, so until then, do not leave the room. The person who is called out will head to their designated locatoin, alone."
- - Battler tells this to the children
- - Narration "Even without any blood connection, he could still understand thanks to the long-lasting bond they shared."
- - Battler thinks that she means that there is no way for them to escape and can only wait to be rescued
- - Battler defies Kinzo
- - Battler is heard by Kinzo who challenges Battler back. However Battler can't hear Kinzo
- - Kyrie says that Kinzo is more than up for the challenge
- - Kyrie "There's no need to hold back. ...You are Rudolf's son. ...No, you are my son. Show me something I won't be embarrassed to brag about."
- - Battler calls her Mom
- - Kyrie says that the instructions for the first test (Jessica's) is for her to head to her own room
- - Battler hands the reciever to Jessica
- - It seems to mean that she should go to her room in the mansion
- - Battler "...They say that old geezer killed those six in the dining hall instantly, with no hesitation."
- - George says that if this doesn't work then they will declare war on Kinzo
- - George "(dotted) I'm just worried you guys'll get there first and clobber the damn geezer who made my fiancee experience terror before I do."

- - Jessica looks at the clock, it reads 23:10
- - Jessica wonders if it is ok to lock the door.
- - Jessica goes to unlock the door
- - Random applause
- - Ronove appears and says that if the door had remained unlocked then it would have been against the rules and the hostages might have come to harm but Jessica would have been saved. He says that in spite of this Jessica was going to unlock it.
- - He says that Jessica's bravery is worthy of admiration
- - Narration (Jessica) "This was supposedly my first meeting with this largely-built, middle aged man. ...I did not recognize this guy, who looked like a butler and bore the seal of the One-Winged Eagle."
- - Ronove says that he serves as head furniture for 'the Master' and is the 27th of the 72.
- - Jessica "Rono...ue...? ...Genji...san...?
- - Ronove "...Ah yes, ...Genji is like my little brother. Perhaps he was my true form in this world. ...Perhaps you could even say he was a vessel."
- - Ronove seems to summon a letter
- - Ronove says that it's the test and to 'attend to the question written there with the readiness of the next head who will support the Ushiromiya family...'. Ronove then tells her to tell him her answer and the reasons for the answer
- - At the time when all of this is happening George is in the arbor of the rose garden
- - George had planned on giving Shannon a ring in that place and instead he is getting a letter from Gaap
- - George calls it a 'stupid problem'
- - Gaap "In that case, isn't the Ushiromiya family inheritance also something of that level in Goldsmith's eyes?"
- - Narration "While the tests given to them were slightly different, they were almost exactly the same."
- - George "'Among the three mentioned below. In order to gain two, sacrifice one'."
- - Gaap says that if George refuses then the test will be suspended
- - George asks if this is only a test or if it will be carried out. Gaap says it will be carried out
- - George's choices: 'Your' life, Shannon's life, Everyone else's lives
- - Gaap says that Shannon's name is there because it is the name of the one most needed by that person (ie George)

- - Kinzo starts laughing
- - Kinzo asks the Siesta Sisters if they know the correct answer
- - 45 says she doesn't know. Kinzo berates her
- - 00 says that she would choose number 1 and Kinzo berates her
- - 410 chooses the second because the person you love will be lost eventually anyway. Kinzo again berates her
- - Kinzo "I see, so that is why you reach such an answer, you rabbit who has become cowardly because you have been hurt by love..."
- - Kinzo says that there is no real correct answer and instead their ability to choose and not hesitate is what is being tested. Their strength of will and convictions is what is being tested
- - Kinzo says that he once had the same question and because of his splendid answer he was able to obtain gold and honor and the witch as his possessions

- - Jessica says that she tried to imagine life with the other two choices
- - Without Kanon she says that she would be a horrible woman who didn't deserve to live, who lamented her own decision and lived only to regret. She says that she couldn't forgive such a woman.

- - Ronove says that he is a demon so he may not keep his promises
- - Jessica "Tell Kanon-kun...to live his life to the fullest. ...Now, that's not quite it. Not...Kanon-kun. ...He still hasn't told me his real name yet. Tell the real Kanon-kun to live his life to the fullest. ...Tell him that."
- - Virgilia is showing them the scene
- - The Siesta Sisters appear and start crying to Virgilia
- - Virgilia says that she will make some tea for them and goes upstairs leaving the goats to guard the prisoners

- - Ronove restores Jessica back to life
- - Ronove says that his magic will not last more than three minutes and she will resume being a corpse after that
- - Ronove says that he is doing this as a courtesy to her to let her prepare for death
- - Jessica picks up the phone and calls the guesthouse
- - Battler answers
- - Jessica breathes hard into the phone and seems like she is laughing
- - Jessica "They...got me..."
- - Battler says that he will come rescue her
- - Jessica "No, ...it's already too late. You see, ...I'm already dead... Ahahaha, when you come, Battler, I'll be a corpse with its head split open."
- - Battler says that he's coming right now
- - Jessica "Listen, Battler!! Listen closely, alright...? ...I know very well why Gohda-san and Kumasawa-san were evasive about the time the six in the dining hall were killed. ...Those guys, ...aren't, ...human."
- - Battler doesn't understand
- - Jessica "I saw it, so what am I supposed to do?!! Those guys warp and set up barriers, ahhaha and do whatever they want, you see...? It's some kind of manga, an anime, ...no, we seriously can't keep up."
- - Jessica "From the very beginning, it was useless to fight... They really aren't opponents that you'll be able to fight with that hat-stand spear you're so proud of..."
- - Jessica "George nii-san is gone too. That was... an instant death... ...Heheh, the next test is yours, Battler. ...I wonder if your test will be the same as ours... ...Be careful, ...and don't get the wrong idea."
- - Battler asks if she means for the test
- - Jessica "No. ...Don't get the wrong idea...about the enemy being human. The enemy...isn't human. They're demons, ...which can control a terrifying magic at will. No matter what, ...don't get the wrong idea about that... take ...care..."
- - Jessica "...When 13 people die, the Golden Witch ...revives. Six are killed along with Mom. That's the first twilight. ...Then George nii-san and I are killed, for the second twilight. ...So once five more people are killed, the ceremony is complete, ...and the witch will revive. ...I hope Dad and the rest are safe... If they aren't, ...the one to test you, might be the resurrected Beatrice herself..."
- - Battler tells her to give it her all
- - Jessica "...Haha, I said I'm already dead. ...See ya. It looks like it's time. ...Good luck on your test. I hope you...can become the head..."
- - The receiver dangles and Battler yells
- - The escapees exit a well
- - The well is behind the mansion
- - Nanjo says that he normally exits at a place with real stairs 'If you just unlock it...'
- - Krauss says that he'll ask him more about this later
- - The Siesta sisters fire
- - There's a bang
- - Kanon has a hole the size of a basketball blown into his chest
- - Kanon falls back into the well
- - The Siesta Sisters fire again into the side of Shannon's head
- - Krauss and Kyrie run but Nanjo is overwhelmed by shock
- - Nanjo is pierced from the forehead to the back of his head
- - Krauss and Kyrie run to the back door of the mansion
- - Just as Krauss closes the door he is pierced from back of the head to forehead
- - Kyrie runs through the hallway and into a random room and locks the door
- - It is apparently one of the guest rooms
- - Kyrie sees a phone
- - Battler is about to dash out to look for Jessica but the phone starts ringing again
- - Now it is Kyrie
- - Kyrie "...Yes, Battler-kun. ...I got lucky. I managed to escape the dungeon somehow. I really made it."
- - Battler starts asking how everyone is. Kyrie cuts him off
- - Kyrie "Listen!!! I probably won't be alive for long."
- - The keyhole of the door glows gold
- - The gold thread bores into the ground by Kyrie's feet
- - Kyrie remembers the first killing
- - Narration (Kyrie?) "...That's right...This is what killed Rudolf and the rest, all six of them..."
- - Kyrie "...Listen Battler-kun. I'm going to tell you everything exactly as I saw it. ...I'm sure you'll think there's something wrong with my head. ...Yes, it's alright if you think that. Even I still haven't sorted out what it was I saw."
- - Kyrie "...Today. After you all returned to the guesthouse, the family conference began in the dining hall, ...and I'll tell you everything that happened next. Listen until the end without butting in. ...The call might be suddenly cut off partway through. If it does, at that time, I'll be dead."
- - Then (apparently) Kyrie spoke about Kinzo coming and the family conference starting and about the six people being killed and the imprisonment of the five
- - She told him also about her escape and how she had run to where she was now
- - She also told him how the others had been killed
- - Kyrie "...Actually, even while we've been talking, ...I've been attacked three times. Something like a strange gold thread keeps flying in through the keyhole, spinning around and aiming for me. First it was by my feet. ...Next, it was close to my shoulders. ...Just now, it grazed my ear. ...Its aim is getting more and more accurate. Looks like it'll go right between my eyes pretty soon..."
- - Kyrie "Where to? ...I've , ...run this far, ...shut myself into a room, and even locked the door, right...? ...Now that I'm still being pursued, ...just where should I hide, ...hey..."
- - Kyrie "Hey, Battler-kun... Are Jessica-chan and George-kun, ...still alive?"
- - Battler tells her about the phone call from Jessica
- - Kyrie "...Thought so. ...Yeah, when we were being killed one after another, I had a kind of premonition. I thought that perhaps the second twilight had been finished in the ceremony of killing 13 people, and that even our twilights had been reached. ...In short, when I die, that's 13 people. This way, the ceremony is complete. ...The Golden Witch, Beatrice, will resurrect."
- - Kyrie "...I wonder what in the world will happen. ...On this island filled with demons and witches, and swarming with goat monsters, ...I wonder just what will happen, ...when even the leader of them all, the Golden Witch, appears... By now, I don't, ...have a clue what's going on anymore."
- - Battler is crying
- - Kyrie "There's only one thing... I can advise you on."
- - Battler asks what
- - Kyrie "Even if... a demon or a witch does appear in front of you..."
- - Kyrie "There's no need whatsoever to doubt whether it's real or not. ...Understand that it's what it seems."
- - Kyrie "You might think that there should be some trick, or that there's some true nature behind it. ...If you have the time to think of something like that, ...it would be much more constructive to think of how not to damage the mood of whatever you're facing. ..Even mistakenly, ...you must not say 'In that case, try showing me magic'... Because to prove that, they will probably use an even more cruel way than before, ...to show you."
- - Battler says that he can't believe it
- - Kyrie "I understand. I understand why you can't believe. ...So, that's why I can give this advice. (dotted) Belive."
- - Battler asks if she is asking him to believe in Beatrice and witches and monsters
- - Kyrie "Probably, ...even after being clearly shown so many things not of this world ...we probably still weren't able to believe any of it, I think. I'm still like that now. ...The true form of this thing that keeps attacking me, trying to shoot through my forehead, ...is something I don't understand, ...and I can't believe it."
- - Kyrie "So, ...I want you along to believe, to understand, ...to accept the existence, ...of that which we couldn't accept. If you do that for me, our deaths won't be wasted. ...It'll also have been worth it for me to make this phone call...Ah!"
- - Battler cries out for her
- - Kyrie "I'm still okay. It scratched, but it missed again. ...it looks like, ...I probably won't get another chance. ...Thank you. And goodbye, Battler-kun. I was once cold towards you because you were Asumu-san's son. ...Forgive me...for that day."
- - Battler "What do you mean, forgive you? Right now, you ARE a mother to me, Kyrie-san!!"
- - Battler hears a loud sound at the other end of the reciever and then a noisy clacking sound.
- - 11:47
- - Maria says that she doesn't understand why Battler is mad
- - Battler's yelling
- - Maria says that now that 13 people have been sacrificed it's time for Beatrice to revive
- - Battler says that he's going to kill both Kinzo and Beatrice
- - Maria says that they'll get an invitation to the Golden Land
- - Maria says that she's going to resurrect the 'real' Rosa
- - Maria "...Didn't Kyrie just tell you, Battler...? ...Didn't she tell you...to believe...in the witch?"
- - Battler says that he's going to do what he wants now and search for people to beat up.
- - Maria "...And Beatrice'll grant our wishes soon anyway. ...Stupid Battler. ...Kihihihihihi."
- - The phone starts ringing again
- - Maria picks it up
- - Battler hears it, rushes back upstairs and shouts at Maria to tell him who is on the phone
- - Battler thinks it's Kinzo
- - Maria slowly turns to Battler and does her laugh
- - Maria gives Battler the phone
- - Maria leaves the room
- - Maria says that she is going to where her test is
- - Maria says that she won't be killed because all the sacrifices are already done and that even if she were killed she would just be revived in the Golden Land
- - Beatrice?
- - I can't tell if the English in the song is worse than the English on the screen
- - Beatrice (?) "What do you mean 'who', Ushiromiya Battleeeeer...? Normally you'd answer <ye~s, I'm fine>! Right?? That takes me back... you do that one in middle school, right? That thing you do in pairs!"
- - Battler still doesn't know who it is
- - 'Beatrice' wants him to say it in English
- - Battler demands to know who it is again and asks if they're one of Kinzo's underlings
- - 'Beatrice' "Underling's mean way to say it, is it not? At least say prisoner. ...Kinzo is my prisoner! Ri~~ght?"
- - Battler again asks who it is
- - 'Beatrice' "Try and guess, you could win an invite to Hawaii?"
- - 'Beatrice' "Finally! Mmmmm, it was so loooong, the days leading up to today were reeeally long...!! I seriously waited one thousand years for today, get it?? I owe it to you! My big resurrection!! <Thank you>, Kinzo! Just for you, I'll lend an ear to that last 'I'll take that move back' of yo~urs!!!"
- - Kinzo comments that Beatrice is in too good of a mood
- - Kinzo and 'Beato' are playing chess with cheese and wine
- - 'Beatrice' mentions something called the Chateau Petrus saying it's from 1947 (possibly wine)
- - Kinzo says that Beatrice is getting too excited
- - 'Beatrice' asks if Kinzo isn't happy to be with her
- - Battler figures out that she is meaning that she's Beatrice
- - 'Beatrice' "<Ye~eeess, I aaaamm>!! Thanks to Kinzo's 13-person-murder ceremony, I've finally been resurrected...!! It's nice haveing a mouth, it's nice having a tongue! How fun it is to be able to talk to you like this! Come to think of it, even though we slapped each other with abuse so many times, over and over again, this is the first time we've had a conversation like this on the board during the game, isn't it? How very fresh!!"
- - 'Beatrice' "Oh, did you hear that *pop* sound just now?! I opened it, I seriously opened that Chateau Petrus!! Do you know how much a single bottle costs?! Almost as much as a whole 10 kilogram ingot, you seeee?!?!"
- - Battler tells her to cut the crap and asks who she is
- - 'Beatrice' "Oh, so you want to meet me? Uhhihihihihi, it's tough being such a popular woman! But please, don't try to chat me up when Kinzo's around, okaay? This guy gets seriously jealous so he has a bad temper, you see? ...But when Kinzo isn't around and we're all alone, I'll love you all ya want in secret, alright...?"
- - 'Beatrice' says that she doesn't want to do Maria's test anymore and to have Kinzo do it
- - Kinzo asks if she is going to do Battler's test
- - She says that Battler is so much like a 'younger you' that it makes her heart race
- - She says that she won't cheat on Kinzo and that she's always alone with him in bed. She also says no more 'tying [her] to the bed with a collar'
- - 'Beatrice' says that she will be testing Battler and that the place of his test is to be the entrance of the mansion
- - 'Beatrice' also says that Kinzo is practically dead on his feet
- - She says that if he becomes the next head then she wouldn't mind becoming all his
- - She says for him to control her
- - Battler says that he'll wake her up from her drunkenness by punching her
- - Battler takes the spear no umbrella
- - Battler assumes that she has backup
- - Battler goes to the storehouse first
- - Battler wants to get them to be allies in this since they have masterkeys and know more about the mansion than he does
- - Battler sees what is inside the shed and thinks that it is very 'strange'
- - Gohda and Kumasawa were hanging by their necks on two lengths of thick rope
- - Narration (Battler) "I couldn't make out the situation clearly. But when they showed not even a tremor after I called out to them, and because of the way the loops around their necks seemed to carry the full weight of their bodies, I could sense no trace of life from them..."
- - There was supposed to be a single key given to Gohda
- - Battler realizes that he doesn't have any allies at the moment
- - Battler goes towards the arbor
- - Battler sees George's weather-beaten corpse
- - Battler sees a hole in his forehead as though he were shot with a gun
- - Battler finally gets to the mansion
- - There's something set down at the entrance of the mansion
- - Narration (Battler) "It looked like the kind of small box that girls often keep trinkets in. ...Or maybe it was the same kind of extravagent cigar case you'd find in a reception room."
- - Battler doesn't open the box right away, thinking it might be a trap
- - Battler hears the tune of the big clock in the hall striking midnight
- - Battler hears an insane laugh and looks up
- - He sees 'a woman I had never seen before.'
- - He says that, no, he had seen her before, in the portrait in the mansion
- - Battler thinks that someone might sneak up on him so he raises his guard but 'Beatrice' tells him that there's noone there but them
- - She lists off the people that aren't there (i.e. all the magical characters)
- - 'Beatrice' "It is true that I have met you several times even in this world. Almost as though we just missed each other. ...As you know, this world of humans is filled with a toxin just by your existence and your doubting of me."
- - She says that she sent in 'a bishop' and stopped Battler from going to a square to avoid the bishop
- - She then says that because of the holes she was able to advance a queen meaning that she is on the white now
- - 'Beatrice' "That is correct!! You have been calling the squares where the gold butterflies that are my minions exist 'the Illusion of the Witch', and without an observer, you have theorized that these were unrealistic and denied them, right...?"
- - She says that because of this she descended to the white squares of the real world to trap Battler
- - Battler says that even if the whole island is stained black the ground he is standing on is white
- - Battler says that he is coming up there now but 'Beatrice' says that it is locked
- - She calls herself the Ushiromiya families furniture
- - She says that inside the box is a letter
- - It smells faintly like cigarettes
- - It's the normal kind of letter with the crest and all
- - It's the same test as Jessica and George's but the second name is blank
- - She says that he should put in the name of the person he likes the most since she doesn't know it
- - Battler says that there isn't anyone that he likes. She says that then the test will not work for him
- - 'Beatrice' says that she will question him to see if he is qualified to become the next head
- - She first asks him to state his name
- - She next asks why it is that Battler threw away the name of Ushiromiya until a while ago
- - He says it's because he 'ran out of love for that old bastard'
- - 'Beatrice' "It's not as though I don't understand why you would feel unable to accept that mother. ...However, no matter who your father remarried with, that wouldn't change the fact that his blood runs in your veins, correct?"
- - She asks if him throwing away his name to get back at his father wasn't a disgrace to the family and his blood
- - She says that he covered the name in mud but that he did well to return
- - 'Beatrice' says that repenting of his 'sin' is what his test will be
- - She throws away her umbrella
- - Battler says that it was partly his childishness but also the fact that Rudolf was cheating on his mom with Kyrie and got her pregnant with Ange. He says that he partly did it to avenge his mom
- - Battler says that he started to cool off and said that he would come back if Rudolf apologized
- - Rudolf apologized on the day of Battler's Granddad's funeral with his hands on the floor and everything
- - Battler hadn't exactly forgiven Rudolf but he decided to start again at 0
- - Battler says that he doesn't have any reason to repent to her and that it was only a problem for his immediate family
- - She asks 'is that all' as if she is not impressed
- - Battler says that he can feel a sense of shock about her. He says that you could almost call it disappointment
- - 'Beatrice' "The settlement of your sins is still insufficient."
- - He asks if she wants him to prostrate himself
- - She says that's not it. She says that there's a sin that he should remember regarding this place, not having to do with his immediate problems with his family
- - She says that if he can remember then she will forgive him
- - Battler says that he can't remember anything and says that he supposedly met her for the first time this year
- - Beato says that she wasn't materialized then so they weren't acquainted and in the 'world of you (Battler)' it was as though she didn't exist
- - Battler asks if it has anything to do with him and her
- - She says that he had no connection to her 6 years ago and to remove her from his thoughts
- - Battler says that her eyes seem to tell him to apologoze which makes him think it has something to do with her
- - Beato "No problem between me and you has anything to do with this."
- - Battler asks that she say it in red, that it is nothing between them
- - Battler again asks why she is gazing at him like that and she says that she is gazing at him blankly
- - Battler asks what kind of sin thinking it was just a stupid sin
- - Battler asks who or how did he kill
- - Beato says that he didn't necessary kill people directly but because of his sin a 'wiggle in the cogs' is created.
- - Beato "(dotted) You are one of the causes of this tragedy"
- - Battler says that he's been the man farthest from the Ushiromiya family and asks how he could have influenced like Beato is saying he did.
- - He says that the only reason he came to the family gathering is to make up for lost time
- - Battler thinks that because he came back a massacre occurred
- - Battler "Repeat it!! 'If Ushiromiya Battler hadn't returned to Rokkenjima, the crime wouldn't have occurred'"
- - Battler thinks that Beato wants to put responsibility for the murders on him
- - Beato doesn't say anything
- - 'Beatrice' "Is there nothing you remember?"
- - Battler "Sorry. I don't even have a clue."
- - Battler says that if she has something to say to him then she should just say it
- - She repeats her question of whether he can remember the sin
- - He again says that he can't
- - 'Beatrice' "...So, ...he says that he can remember...nothing."
- - With this, are your regrets at an end...? ...Hhmm...
- - 'Beatrice' "...Hhmm..."
- - For even a hopeless bet, regrets will remain if you do not take it. ...That is enough. The betting itself has meaning.
- - 'Beatrice' "...That may be true. ...In that case, this is...the end of my regrets, and my game."
- - What will you do...?
- - 'Beatrice' "Who knows. ...I'm not interested at all anymore. ...Sorry, but I wish to leave the game board now."
- - ....I see. ...I understand.
- - The other person speaking is Beato (I thought so)
- - Beato says that she'll take over for the rest of the game and that 'Beatrice' may rest
- - Beato says that she'll finish everything
- - The first witch 'Beatrice' leaves and the second witch Beato stays 'her expression was somehow indifferent and ice-cold, ...completely removed from the one who, despite seeming drunk up until then, had been in high spirits.'
- - The Beatrice on the balcony is expressing some kind of disappointment
- - In the study there is a lively party, Gaap making fun of Virgilia, Kinzo and Ronove opened a new bottle.
- - Kinzo says that Maria passed her test with no complaints
- - Kinzo catches fire again
- - Ronove asks what happened
- - Beatrice says that she's over her excitement and to clean up Kinzo's remains
- - Beatrice has an emptiness now about human life
- - Beatrice won't say what the matter is
- - Gaap gets turned into a glass statue
- - Ronove does so
- - Gaap and Virgilia also disappear
- - Beatrice vanishes all of the food and drink in the study
- - Beatrice stands in the study "Battler, are you there?"
- - Battler responds (meta)
- - Battler says that she's been acting kind of strange
- - Beato says that she's abandoning the game for all eternity
- - Beato says that she got tired of the game and is throwing it away
- - Battler says that it can't be that it has nothing to do with her because it's written all over her face
- - Beatrice has an offended expresion
- - Beato says that she is abandoning the game on her turn and that the pieces will stay as they lie for all eternity
- - Bern comes to explain (thanks)
- - Lambda shows up too
- - They both say that, basically, Battler can't get out with this. He only leaves if he wins
- - Bern and Lambda aren't happy about this ending
- - Beato don't care
- - Bern is fine with it. Lambda isn't
- - Gretel says that Beato doing this to Battler is too irresponsible
- - Beato says that the main reason she is being criticized is because she alone is leaving and says Battler could do the same
- - Gretel gets madder at her for this and says that Beato should take responsibility by siting across from Battler and reaching a conclusion
- - Beato turns away from Battler
- - Beato "So, since Battler will not quit as my opponent, ...the Ladies are saying that the abandonment of this game will not be acknowledged. ...In that case, I shall ask. Whether the man over there was qualified to be my opponent in the first place."
- - Gretel Battler and Bern don't understand what Beato is up to
- - Beato "I will now question whether you are qualified to be my opponent. ...Alright, Battler? If those qualifications are acknowledged, I will stay in my seat and continue the game. And I shall promise to fight for all eternity until the outcome is decided."
- - Battler says that that is what he was prepared for from the beginning
- - Beato says that if he is not qualified then he will disappear
- - Lambda and Gretel seem to have figured out what is going to happen
- - Beatrice "...Well then Battler. I shall have you repeat it in red."
- - Battler doesn't understand how he can use the red truth
- - Lambda "...I, if you wish for it to be that way, you can do it. It's easy."
- - Gretel yells at Beato to 'Stop it'
- - Beato glares at Gretel and her form is wiped away
- - Bern says that they won't get in the way and Lambda says this is bad since Beato is trying to erase Battler
- - Beatrice says that she will speak with the red first
- - Battler says that he knows this
- - Beatrice asks him to repeat 'Ushiromiya Battler's mother is Ushiromiya Asumu'
- - Battler doesn't understand why his Mom is involved in this
- - Battler doesn't see what Beato is planning
- - Beato then has him repeat his name in red
- - Then she has him say that he was born from Asumu
- - Beatrice finally wants him to say 'It was from Ushiromiya Asumu that you were born.'
- - Battler tries to say it but he cant get it out in red
- - Beato says that the blue is used 'to proclaim a theory for the opponent to deny.'
- - Lambda tells Battler to deny that in red somehow
- - Battler is stunned
- - Battler is surprised that he wasn't born from who he thought was his mom
- - Beatrice "No. There is no way that you are my opponent Ushiromiya Battler. With this as proof."
- Battler "Proof, you say?!"
- Beatrice "You do not know of that sin six years ago."
- Battler "...uh, ...th, that's..."
- Beatrice "No, the true Ushiromiya Battler would not have committed a sin. But a sin did occur in the end, the span of six years became a blank space, and a man who knew nothing of that time took the name Ushiromiya Battler and appeared on Rokkenjima. ...That truth...goes like this."
- - Narration (Beatrice) "Six years ago, ...my opponent, the true Ushiromiya Battler, was already dead. You were involved in a plot by Rudolf having something to do with distribution of the inheritance... a body double set up in Ushiromiya Battler's place."
- - Battler asks how something that stupid could be true
- - Beatrice says that she thought that it might be the case
- - Battler erases himself
- - Beatrice dismisses Bern and Lambda
- - Beatrice disappears, then Bern then Lambda
- - The study is silent
- - Beato thinks to herself that magic should have only been used within Mariage Sorciere.
- - Maria agrees
- - Beato questions why she started this game. She can't remember why or maybe she can and doesn't want to have that feeling anymore
- - Maria says that it should just be the two of them
- - Beato starts to cry
- - 1998
- - Amakusa and Ange are on the boat and Ange tells him to turn off the music
- - Ange isn't remembering things like she thought she would
- - Ange does remember the seagulls' cries
- - Ange asks the captain about the other harbor
- - Apparently there is a harbor around the back of Rokkenjima
- - Ange asks who knew about this other harbor. He says Kinzo, Genji, the people involved with the boats and 'a very small number of the oldest servants.' He also says that Nanjo and Kumasawa knew
- - The captain was only told that there was a mansion called Kuwadorian and was not able to see it from the boat
- - The captain says that he carried high-class ladies stuff to that harbor
- - He says that he never saw Beatrice
- - He says that all of a sudden all going back and forth between Kuwadorian and there stops. He says it was about 30 years ago, around 1968. He also says that he came and went for about 20 years, so he's been doing this since about the time the island was purchased
- - They got a message from Genji saying that, until further notice there was no need to go there anymore
- - The captain guessed (and from servants) that Beatrice died
- - The captain then says that Genji came and was pushy, saying he couldn't say any thing about the back until he died
- - The hidden mansion is about 2 km away from the main mansion according to Ange
- - They don't think that Eva could have gotten there through the forest or by sea
- - Therefore they think about a tunnel
- - They reach the island
- - The captain says that he'll wait there and points them towards the mansion
- - Ange tells Amakusa to wait as well
- - Ange brought flowers
- - Ange thinks that the road that was left was not as bad as she expected
- - Ange feels that the witch is there
- - There is a fence with a warning sign saying 'No entry, Tokyo Metropolis'.
- - Ange climbs the fence
- - Ange gets to the top of some kind of hill it seems and has a view of the island
- - Because of the cliffs they can't go to the mansion or they would not be able to come back
- - Ange is waiting for her family to come
- - Ange's soul is taken to the forest
- - Ange "I finally understand everything. ...I understand magic...! Our magic is surely very faint and fills the space beside us. ...But it isn't something that anyone can see with their eyes. ...Magic is...yes, I can say it clearly. -Without love, it cannot be seen"
- - Ange realizes that when she hurt Maria the Mariage Sorciere was made into something other than what Maria really wanted
- - At first it was magic for creating happiness and then it became magic for hurting people
- - Ange hears the sound of gravel being crunched
- - Ange thinks it's Maria
- - SURPRISE KASUMI!
- - Ange thinks that what is going on is that she is going to be killed on this deserted island
- - Ange knows that her stocks will go over to the Sumadera family if she is killed
- - It appears the guards have handguns
- - Kasumi says that she's been waiting since early morning
- - It seems that mostly Kasumi hates Kyrie and Ange reminds Kasumi of Kyrie
- - Ange taunts Kasumi
- - Kasumi sicks her guards onto Ange to try and teach her a lesson
- - Kyrie was supposed to have all the responsibility and Kasumi got the easy, princess life.
- - However, Kyrie got disinherited because she didn't marry who they wanted and got pregnant by Rudolf
- - Kyrie would normally be killed for this but she was just disinherited so as to give the Sumadera family special treatment from 'a section of the Ushiromiya group'
- - Ange keeps making fun of Sumadera
- - Kasumi was very jealous of Kyrie
- - Ange realizes that Kasumi thinks that by killing her she will get rid of her hatred for Kyrie and let her move on with her life
- - Kasumi is getting ready to kill Ange
- - Ange realizes that her life wasn't so different from Kasumi's with the strictness
- - She said that Eva was similar because she would punish Ange until she wanted to stop, not until Ange apologized or learned her lesson
- - Ange thinks that Rosa was probably the same
- - Ange also thinks that Maria was remarkable because she filled her world with happiness
- - Ange knows, now that she knows magic, that Eva was a person she should feel compassion for
- - Ange sees the black witch behind Eva who taught her to hate
- - Ange can now see Eva-Beatrice
- - Eva-Beatrice asks if Ange hates her. Ange says that she is stopping the cycle of hate
- - Eva-Beatrice is behind Kasumi egging her on

- - Battler realizes that the culprit could have a master key
- - Battler notices no external wounds
- - Battler thinks that she was damaged on the head, called him and then was killed
- - Battler is bothered by the fact that Jessica had said that George's death was instant

- - Battler "Repeat it, 'Kanon-kun's death was a homicide'."
- - She refuses
- - Beatrice might be a little impressed by Battler now. She says his blue is effective

- - Battler "It looks like you don't need any mercy."
- Beato "I never asked for it in the first place."
- - Battler says that he's broken through all of the fourth games mysteries with the blue so all that is left is Nanjo's murder
- - Beato says that she's kille the 18 of them hundreds of times
- - Beato continues to egg Battler on

- - Credit roll
- **********????**********
- - Unknown location in fragment (some really long number)
- - Large bed with jellybeans (those are going to stain if you let them) and chocolate
- - There's a shortcake and decanters of drinks
- - The drinks that are being drunk are a venomous color (Kinzo's alcohol?)
- - On the bed are several big pillows
- - Bern is lying on the bed face down
- - Lambda is lying face up clutching a pillow
- - Lambda "Ahahaha, it was pretty thrilling this time, wasn't i~t? I got re~ally anxious when Beato said she'd stop the game."
- - Bern says that it's rude to do something like that
- - Lambda says that Ange was a good piece since she dragged Beato back
- - Bern says that Ange threw her life away because she knew Battler was weak to emotions
- - Bern says that she was worried that Battler might show compassion
- - Lambda says it was a good rule for the name since the brother-sister combo would have beaten Beato in the blink of an eye
- - Lambda says that the piece would have been too unfair otherwise
- - Bern "...She was an innocent kid like Battler, so it was easy to get her to do as I said. ...Morons and impulsive types are the best for pieces. ...Aaah, I really can't stand losing that piece."
- - Bern says that Battler has now turned the game to Bern's advantage
- - Bern "I mean, didn't Battler solve almost all the mysteries up until now this time?"
- Lambda "Huuh? No~t even close! Almost all of Battler's blue truth is off! Beato's lukewarm red is full of holes. If she had any brains in her, she'd slip through it easily by setting up a suitable web of twisted logic. ...Yeah, it really ticks me off. If it were me, I'd thoroughly cut down all of it with the red."
- Bern "...Oh, really? And I was sure that those were all correct. ...Well, I don't know about that small bomb part though."
- - Lambda says that not all of Battler's blue truth was effective.
- - Lambda reminds us that Beato declared that (red) 'the identities of all unidentified corpses are guaranteed'
- - Lambda says that this breaks Battler's reasoning for the second twilight
- - Lambda next says that Kanon might have died from an accident in the boiler room but what kind of accident would even do that?
- - Bern says that Lambda musn't say that about Natsuhi because Beato is trying to make it seem like she bounced the bullet back with magic
- - Lambda also says that the blue for the second game was naive
- - Lambda says that Battler tries to explain everything using trap X
- - Lambda says that it's laughable to say that someone else inherited Kanon's name
- - Lambda says that she could keep going and that she is only taking a quick look
- - Lambda says that Beato must be a good actor because she wasn't cornered at all and must be planning to slice up the blue in a later game
- - Bern asks if it is all an act
- - Lambda says it's obvious 'She really is a big actress!'
- - Lambda says that Beato is still holding back a glaring hidden move
- - Lambda asks if Bern noticed that only Beato's right hand fell
- - Bern "Yeah, now that you mention it. ...Is that what that meant."
- Lambda "Sure is! That kid still had plenty of hidden moves left! And none of the mysteries have been solved...! That tension, as though she had been seen through and the next episode would be the last... she truly is a genius at action. Yeah, I want to see her knock Battler down to the very bottom right away!"
- - Lambda says that Beato's been encouraged by the strategy from last game
- - Lamda says that she's threatening Beato with a punishment game if she loses
- - Bern says that her punishment games are not cool and to go easy
- - Lambda is kind of weird. Yandere's be crazy yo
- - Bern is kind of non-plussed by the whole thing and quietly makes fun of Lambda's scenario without Lambda noticing
- - Lamda says again that she's betting on an eternal tie while Bern is betting on Battler's victory. No one is betting for Beato's victory
- - Bern says that Beato's chances of winning are 0
- - Lambda wonders how it will resolve and Bern says that they have no way to predict
- - Lambda says that she knows a way that it is certainly impossible for it to end
- - Lambda says that if Beato starts to look like she's going to win then she'll have to deal with Bern and her
- - Bern says that their powers are most in balance when it's between a tie and Battler's victory
- - Bern "That child is a living toy, a doll that you caught so that you could play with me, Lambda."
- - Both Lambda and Bern "Beato certainly cannot win. And a miracle certainly will not occur."
- - Both laugh
