(no subject)
Haha, I meant to do this when I first got Kouya in! Anyway, to better explain the voice I'm using for Kouya, I've written out how she's translated in the English version of the manga, since scanlations are less reliable and don't always mesh with each other. So... here's all her dialogue in the manga! /o/
Kouya's Classmate (1): I think Yamamoto cuts corners in his class
Kouya's Classmate (2): You can say that again.
Kouya's Classmate (1): Cram school is way better. What do you think, Sakagami-san?
Kouya: ...whatever....
Yamato's Friend (1): Okay. Let's go to the manga cafe, then.
Random Dude (1): Hey, hey. Hold on. You wanna hang out?
Yamatos Friend: Whaaat? Are you serious?
Random Dude (1): Those are Sakuragaoka girl's school uniforms, right?
Random Dude (2): That's cute. Do you want to go to karaoke?
Yamato's Friend (1): Whaaat?
Yamato's Friend (2): What do you want to do, Yamato?
Yamato: Sorry, no boys for me today! Ha ha!
Random Dude (1): Aw, man!
Yamato: See ya!
Random Dude (1): Psht! See ya when?
Yamato: Long time no see, Sakagami. How you doing?
Kouya: ... Hello. Nice to see you.
Yamato's Friend (1): Who was that, Yamato?
Yamato: Somebody from my junior high.
Yamato's Friend (1): A friend?
Yamato: Not really.
Kouya's Classmate (1): Let's go, Sakagami-san...
Yamato: Oh, sorry, I got a call. I've got to go, sorry. Ha ha!
Yamato's Friend: What's that about, Yamato? is it a guy?!
Yamato: Heh heh, that's a secret~ I'll see you next week~!
Kouya: ...I'm going to leave now.
Kouya's Classmate: Do you have cram school, Sakagami-san?
Kouya: Yes. Goodbye
Yamato: Why don't you take off these fake ears already?
Kouya: Later. More importantly, who were those girls?
Yamato: Those were girls from school. What about you? Looks like you're hanging around with some real winners.
Kouya: We were just headed the same way.
Yamato: Hmmm. Well then, that's all right.
Kouya: It is. All right.
-
Soubi: Young ladies, why so bloodthirsty?
Yamato: Being eager does that to you.
Soubi: Not me. I'm not in the mood.
Yamato: You're not getting away. We're not here to do battle. And we don't have to bother with Aoyagi Ritsuka.
Soubi: Then I especially don't have business with you.
Yamato: We didn't say that we weren't going to touch him. We can always destroy him, y'know? And if you aren't in the mood to fight...
Kouya: Then our objective is to lynch you.
Soubi: Ahhh... me? You're going to lynch me? Why?
Yamato: Our useless comrades have made weak attempts, and now we're here to clean up their mess.
Kouya: Our name is Zero.
Soubi: Zero... Zero again?
Yuiko: Hey, it's Soubi-san! Hello! ♥ Ritsuka-kun is with sensei, he fell asleep in class! That's not like Ritsuka-kun, is it? Huh? Wha? You're leaving, Soubi-san? Why? Didn't you come to take Ritsuka-kun home? Are you okay?
Soubi: Something... just came up. Bye bye!
Yuiko: ... ... ? ? ?
Yamato: Whoaaaa! Her tits are almost as big as mine! Is she in grade school?! Kya kya ♪
Soubi: Isn't it obvious?
Kouya: So that's Aoyagi Ritsuka's girlfriend?
Soubi: What makes you think that?
Kouya: The way she talks about him. I just had a feeling.
Soubi: Your feelings are delusions.
Yamato: Oh my. What a scary face, Agatsuma-san!
Kouya: "Delusion: An idiosyncratic impression firmly maintained despite contradiction by what is generally accepted as reality, typically a symptom of a mental disorder." That is... mean.
Yamato: Heh heh~ You're mean, Agatsuma-san~
Soubi: You two. Which one of you is the Fighter?
Yamato: Who can say? What's your impression?
Soubi: Even if you don't say, I'll find out soon enough.
Kouya: True.
Yamato: Y'know... we aren't going to feel guilty about going two on one. Are you sure you want to fight alone? Might be a good idea to give Ritsuka-chan a call.
Soubi: Enough chat. Let's not waste my time. Domain systems on. Engage battle.
Yamato: What a petulant bitch! I was only trying to be nice ♥
Kouya: I accept. Engage battle.
Soubi: Your phone's ringing.
Kouya: As is yours. [to Yamato] It's Nagisa-sensei.
Yamato: Let me have it. Kouya, don't hesitate. Focus.
Kouya: Ignite! Attack with blazing fire! Temperature of 1000 degrees!
Soubi: (...so, they're the mathematical type. I'm sure they're very accurate) Defend. The heat cannot touch me. I cannot suffer your attacks. Damage is zero. (Is one of me stronger than two of them?)
Kouya: NO! Damage is 100!!
Soubi: ...ngh! (I can't prevent it.) Flames, vanquish to zero. Fire cannot thrive... with no material left to burn. It is zero.
Yamato: He's good. He's aping your style, Kouya.
Kouya: He's a filthy cheat!
Yamato: But imitation isn't innovation. He's only playing defense. He hasn't struck us once yet. And he doesn't have a Sacrifice. Huh!
Kouya: You are one. We are one with the power of two. Our force is doubled! Your four limbs... tear asunder to the four winds! You're unbelievable! How dare you change your Sacrifice?! We are given only one!! DIE! If your Sacrifice is dead, then do you must die!!
Yamato: Kouya. Calm down! Focus! Focus on your attacks!
Kouya: ...ngh. [huff]
Soubi: (The Zero series have no pain receptors. So wear down their bodies... while the mind stays unaware.) Your five limbs... as the five elements... tear asunder! (Unless I weaken them to the point of death... I lose.)
Yamato: [gets sliced!]
Kouya: Yamato?
Yamato: No problem. Go on.
Kouya: Roger.
Yamato: So this... is the kind of man that you are. Scarring a girl's face is unforgivable... y'know.
Kouya: Yamato...
Yamato: I'm cool, I'm cool.
Soubi: Forgive me. I'm no gentleman. Blades. Blades of ice...
Yamato: Kouya. He's planning to lower the temperature. Be careful!
Soubi: (...I see. So they're experienced. No old tricks for new Zeroes.)
Yamato: Heh heh. Agatsuma-san, you weak points are your left hand and your left arm. I can tell. Were you injured there? When you move, you favour that side.
Kouya: Tear asunder!
Soubi: ! (I might not... be able to win.)
Yamato: You know... Nagisa-sensei really hates you. Why is that?
Soubi: I wonder... I'm used... to being hated. No big deal. (Ah... well, either way)
Yamato: Huh! Not cute. I bet that attitude is exactly why you're hated.
Soubi: (I haven't been told to win. And nobody... ordered me to fight.)
Kouya: Well? You're not going to attack?
Soubi: I'm getting tired of this. (If it's pain... then I can bear it.)
Yamato: Even so... we're not going to stop, you know.
Kouya: We told you. This is a lynching.
Soubi: If you want to... go ahead.
-
Kouya: Nagisa-sensei. The spoils of war.
Nagisa: You did well, Sakagami Kouya. I'm very pleased! You're injured, Yamato. Are you all right?
Yamato: Aw... thank you. I'm fine.
Nagisa: If you ever become a burden... I'm going to replace you with a new Sacrifice.
Kouya: No! Yamato is the only one for me. And I am Yamato's Fighter unit.
Nagisa: That's only if you were natural. You Zero series are artificial and interchangeable!
Kouya: But how could you...
Yamato: Sensei, I'm fine. If I ever became a burden to Kouya, I'd kill myself, trust me.
Kouya: Yamato!!
Nagisa: Good. I'm glad you understand. You can go home for today.
Yamato: Okaaay! Bye now! Thank you!
Nagisa: Take care. Good night.
Kouya: Yamato. Yamato...!!
Yamato: I'm hungry, do you want to stop somewhere?
Kouya: Yamato. Listen to me.
Yamto: Hm?
Kouya: Why did you say that?!
Yamato: Nagisa-sensei is right. If I were a hindrance to you, I'd be better of dead.
Kouya: No... that's not what I mean. We're always going to be together!
Yamato: Oh, come on. "If you die then I'll die too?" I'm tired of hearing that.
Kouya: !!
Yamato: Now, now. I'm not going to die, okay? Let's go to Mr. Donut! I want a French Cruller! ♥
Kouya: If you... feel so unbothered by it all... then kiss me.
Yamato: Ah! Must it come to this? Heh. I don't mind. [lick]
Kouya:!!
Yamato: You're all red. If you like me so much, you can buy me a French Crueler ♥
Kouya: Fine. But don't blame me if you get fat!!
-
Kouya: [throwing up in the washroom] (Revolting... What should I do... I can't control this sickness...)
Yamato: [outside the washroom, on phone with Nagisa] Yes, I understand. We are to go again. Hmmm. Kouya? She's not available right now...
Nagisa: Ergh! How do you know Kouya's unavailable? You arrogant child. Eergh! I want to talk to Kouya!
Yamato: Kouya's busy throwing up right now.
Nagisa: WHAT?! What are you talking about?! What happened?! I something wrong with her? Is she all right?!
Yamato: She might be... pregnant.
Nagisa: Gyaaaaaaaaaah! Eiyaaaah! What are you saying?! Whose is it?!
Yamato: It's mine.
Nagisa: Kyaaaa! What's going on, Yamato?! Did you hit your head?!
Yamato: .......
Nagisa: there's something wrong with you! You're crazy! Look, if you do anything to Kouya, you're not going to die painlessly--
Yamato: [hangs up on Nagisa] Pregnant. It'd be great if she was.
Kouya: [coming out of the washroom] What the hell. ....They say... that you can get pregnant just by kissing.
Yamato: Either science has gone topsy-turvy... or it's just stress. What are you so afraid of... that it's making you ill?
Kouya: (It's the fear... of losing you.)
Nagisa[flashback]: I'll just prepare a new one for you. A useless Sacrifice... will be replaced, understand?!
Kouya: [crying] (I'm afraid. Nagisa-sensei says such things, just like that. Is she serious...? I can't stand this. To have my Sacrifice replaced. To be seperated from Yamato...)
Yamato: Be strong. Be strong. Just think... be strong. If only you could... then you--your everything--could be mine. All of you will be mine!!
-
Kouya: I wonder which will come... according to my information, they're all inside. Aoyagi Ritsuka. Agatsuma Soubi. The Zero Youji. Natsuo. I can take them all. But if he comes by himself... Soubi is an idiot. And if he sends a Zero, he's a coward.
Youji: Whoa. You've got such a mean streak, Soubi.
Natsuo: They'd have to be over thirty to be hags. According to the dictionary, that is. [giggle]
Youji: That's harsh!
Yamato: I heard some nasty words there. Old...? Jerks!
Youji: Hey, they're pretty cute. Good evening, we're Zero. I didn't know there were others.
Kouya: (I know the feeling.)
Youji: I don't get it. If we're new, then who needs the old ones?
Yamato: Wanna do one at a time? Which one of you is the Sacrifice?
Kouya: (So Nagisa-sensei really did... create replacements.)
Yamato: ...
Youji: I am. And on your side?
Yamato: Yeeees. That's me! ♥ Let's be friends!! HA HA!
Youji: Let's not. Whatta weird lady.
Kouya: (Why? When I have Yamato, there's no need for another!!)
Yamato: Let's forget it, Kouya. They're not our enemy.
Kouya: No. Let's settle, right now, which of us is Zero. We don't need any replacements. We don't need... you!!
Natsuo: ......
Youji: ......
Yamato: Kouya, don't get upset.
Kouya: No! Enough! I'm going to beat them!!
Yamato: Then... why don't we try out that spell?
Kouya: !! (Oh no.)
Yamato: It's useless to get into an endurance contest between Zeroes... show them that we'll finish this. That we mean it. (Soubi's one thing, but if we battle them... I won't last. I'm sorry, Kouya.)
Kouya: Hey... Zeroes possess spells that nobody else knows.
Youji: Go ahead and try, you old bag!!
Natsuo: Youjiiiii!! Youji!! Goddamn you! What did you do to Youji?!
Kouya: [crying] The Zeroes... possess spells that others don't know!!
Natsuo: Why are you crying, you bitch!! There wasn't any spell or anything yet...
Yamato: Whoops!
Natsuo: No! Don't touch him!!
Yamato: Absolute restriction. The battle is over ♥
Ritsuka: Natsuo! Is Youji... all right?!
Natsuo: Ritsuka.
Kouya: So you're Loveless.
Ritsuka: (What is this?! How could they...?!)
Yamato: Tomorrow evening at five. Two on two.
Natsuo: Don't! There's something weird with them!
Ritsuka: (This is too awful.)
Yamato: What's your answer?
Ritsuka: I accept.
Natsuo: Ritsuka! Don't! We hadn't even started, and he suddenly collapsed. I don't know what happened... there's really something messed-up with these two!!
Yamato: Aren't we great?
Ritsuka: Fine.
Natsuo: Ritsuka!
Yamato: You're fine with this too, right?
Soubi: Of course. Once Ritsuka decides, I can only obey.
-
Yamato: Ha ha! A grade-schooler playing hooky. Pardon us for last night.
Ritsuka: I thought we weren't meeting until five.
Yamato: We're on for five, this is just a little reconnaissance. Let's do tea. My treat ♥
Ritsuka: (So this... is the skin of one that feels no pain.) I have nothing to discuss with you.
Yamato: Hmm! Yeah. You're just like Seimei.
Ritsuka: You knew Seimei?
Yamato: He was just as snippy with me. In the same voice. He totally didn't take us seriously. "I don't have anything to discuss with you." Like that. What a jerk!
Ritsuka: Seimei wasn't like that! You must have pissed him off.
Yamato: I swear I didn't. Seimei was a really nasty guy!!
Ritsuka: Was not! I bet... you didn't even know Seimei that well!!
Yamato: Oh? Maybe you're the one that didn't know him.
Yamato: Go ahead, before it cools off. Oh. Maybe you don't drink coffee?
Ritsuka: (Coffee! I can't drink this slop!) It's not that.
Yamato: [plays with Ritsuka's hair ;D] Ha ha. Sorry. I lied back there. You're not like him at all.
Ritsuka: (What's with her?)
Yamato: You remind me of Kouya. You're in sixth grade, right? When I first met her, Kouya was in sixth grade, too.
[FLASHBACK]
Nagisa: I'm going to introduce you to Sakagami Kouya. You wait there. She'll be your Fighter unit. But make no mistake... Kouya doesn't belong to you. You belong to Kouya, all right?! I arranged for Kouya to have foster parents. She's not like you, got it? Answer me!!
Yamato: Yeeeeees. Nagisa-sensei, I have a question.
Nagisa: What?
Yamato: Sensei, why do you hate me so much?
Nagisa: I don't hate YOU. I hate all Sacrifices.
Yamato: So that means you like Fighters?
Nagisa. That's right. What of it?
Yamato: Nothing.
Nagisa: Now, Yamato. Say hello to Kouya.
Yamato: Hiya! [tail wagging] I'm Nakano Yamato. I've been waiting for you.
Kouya: Waiting...? But I came right on time.
[PRESENT]
Yamato: She was always kind of out of it, from the start... You know, I can understand Agatsuma-san's feelings a little. I was always being told about Kouya. I was waiting to meet her... because I was going to belong to her.
Ritsuka: Soubi doesn't belong to me.
Yamato: Whaaaaat? Oh really? Poor Agatsuma-san! Hya hya hya~
Ritsuka: What are you talking about?
Yamato: Hey, what's this wound?
Ritsuka: (Don't touch it! What's with this chick?) It doesn't have anything to do with this!!
[FLASHBACK]
Yamato: You have a lot of injuries, don't you, Kouya? Are you being careless?
Kouya: Not really.
Yamato: [touches her wrist] Hey... why are you cut here?
Kouya: No reason.
Yamato: If you mess up, you could die. Stay away from this part.
Kouya: I won't. [giggle] I don't intend to die. But... I thought that it might hurt, so... I was wondering if I could feel pain, at least once.
Yamato: Hmmm. Then... [starts cutting self] It'll be the same for my wrist, too.
Kouya: Wha... Yamato!!
Yamato: We're the same, right? Your wrist and my wrist. If I feel pain, I'll let you know.
Kouya: Yamato!
Yamato: Even if my wrist doesn't hurt... I hurt here. My heart. When you do that, it hurts me.
[PRESENT]
Yamato: Are you being bullied?
Ritsuka: No!
Yamato: Ooh! Hey, hey. Where's your name? Show me yours, I'll show you mine~
Ritsuka: Name?
Yamato: Your name, Loveless. Where's your name?
Ritsuka: I don't have anything like that.
Yamato: You just don't know about it. It might appear on a part of your body that you can't see. Maybe I can check for you?
Ritsuka: Nice try!
Yamato: Ah ha! Mine's on my boobs. You wanna see~?
Ritsuka: No! [stands up too quickly and knocks the coffee onto Yamato]
Yamato: Ouch!
Ritsuka: Are you all right? I'm sorry. What the hell're you doing? In public!!
Yamato: As if I'd actually show you my tits for real, you pervert!
Ritsuka: That's my line!
Yamato: You're a funny kid. You don't want... to find your name? It's totally special when two people share the same name. It's as if heaven decided it. Your chosen one.
Ritsuka: I hate stuff like that. I make my own choices. Your partner isn't decided by a name. You choose that person for yourself.
Yamato: You say that because you know nothing.
Ritsuka: Hey. Where are you going? (We're in the middle of a conversation!)
Yamato: The bathroom? I don't want this to stain.
[FLASHBACK]
Yamato: Kouya, has your name appeared?
Kouya: On my chest.
Yamato: It did? Mine, too!
Kouya: You want to see?
Yamato: I do.
Kouya: [lifts up her shirt]
Yamato: [touches Kouya's chest] We have the same name.
Kouya: Yeah.
Yamato: Your breasts are tiny.
Kouya: Shut up.
[PRESENT]
Yamato: [in the washroom, looking at her name] (I knew it. My name is fading... If I battle today... it will probably disappear) Why...? Why only me...? (I don't want to become different from Kouya. Is it a fool who's a slave to her name? But this name... brought her to me. And now this name... will take her away.)
Ritsuka: I wonder why... her and Soubi... They seem to be in pain. (Like I thought, coffee's gross!)
Waitress: Sir, should I warm that coffee up for you?
Ritsuka: No, that's okay!! (Hot... coffee...) ......
Yamato: Sorry to keep you waiting, grade-schooler~ ♥
Ritsuka: .......
Yamato: What's with that face?
Ritsuka: You know... I think I know your secret now.
-
Kouya: Battle systems engage.
Soubi: We accept. Ritsuka, what is our course of action?
Ritsuka: Don't think of them as Zeroes! Think of them as normal people. Don't injure them. But... make them cry in pain.
Soubi: You want to hear some screams?
Ritsuka: No, you idiot! Not like that... er. No... maybe it is like that... whatever!!
Soubi: Why?
Ritsuka: I don't know. But I think that pain may be able to change something.
Soubi: Pain, eh? A word I like. One is born into the world only by passing through pain. Needles. Throbbing pain is proof of life. Become like rain, and shower down upon this target.
Ritsuka: Needles... Sounds like it'll hurt...
Sooubi: Quite. I hurt badly with needles.
Kouya: A useless attack! We feel no pain!
Yamato: [gets hit by the needles]
Ritsuka: (How much pain can it be? She didn't even twitch an eyebrow...)
Yamato: Kouya, retaliate! Hurry up and bind them!
Kouya: Acknowledged. Sever one into two. And from three sides, take your four limbs from your body.
[BONDAGE MAGIIIIC]
Kouya: Grade-schooler!! Because you won't accept, your Fighter unit will suffer. Because you turn your back on your name.
Ritsuka: You old witch!! Your courage is just an act!!
Soubi: Send a current through each impaled needle. An electric pulse. Assault the enemy... with electricity.
Yamato: ...!! (Withstand it!)
Kouya: It's useless.
Yamato: [collapses]
Kouya: Yamato...
Yamato: It's nothing. I just tripped. (I can't look at her. Kouya will see the pain in my face.)
Kouya: .......
Yamato: Ha ha. How dare you call me a witch, you little punk! Kouya, go ahead and do it.
Kouya: I shall... bind you! Confine the target's freedom. Yoke and restrict!
Soubi: I refuse!!
Yamato: Kouya! Concentrate! Your spells don't have enough power!
Soubi: I like the face you make when you try to bear the pain. It's almost... alive. Almost... sexy.
Kouya: ...what are you talking about...
Soubi: A girl who lives as a corpse, knowing no pain... cannot defeat me. To feel is to thrive.
Yamato: (He's preying on Kouya's weakness.) Don't get caught up in his words, Kouya. It's a spell. A bluff.
Soubi: You're like a pretty butterfly. Shall I make you a specimen? Impaled with a pin in my collection?
Yamato: Ah...!!
Ritsuka: !! You idiot! Stop it, Soubi! That's too much! [to Yamato] Hey, you! You're hurting, aren't you?! When the coffee splashed you, it burned, didn't it? You can feel pain, right?
Yamato: Kouya, don't let him fool you!
Kouya: Yamato... oh no.
Yamato: This doesn't hurt at all.
Kouya: Yamato!
Yamato: NO! I'm telling you, it doesn't hurt!
Kouya: Show me your name! [rips open Yamato's shirt] Your name... is gone... why?
Yamato: I don't know.
Kouya: Since when? Why?! Yamato!
Yamato: I don't know! I'd like to know, too!! [crying] Why only me? I'd rather die than be a burden.
Soubi: Are you forfeiting the battle?
Kouya: We can't continue.
Soubi: Then...
Ritsuka: Okay, it's over!! Fight's over!! If you don't have the will to fight, then it's over!!
Soubi: Ritsuka, say "it's closed."
Ritsuka: It's closed!! Enough!
Soubi: When you start this, you can't stop in the middle of it. Forfeiting a battle is worse than losing.
Ritsuka: I don't know what you're talking about! You shouldn't fight if you can get away with not fighting.
Soubi: Ritsuka!
Ritsuka: You're mistaken! When the opponent says they quit, you can quit!
Soubi: That's careless. You can't quit--you have to settle it.
Ritsuka: Why are you so thickheaded? All right, fine. Are you going to obey me or not? Which is it?
Soubi: If you forfeit, then you can never again wage a battle with us. Nor with anyone else.
Yamato: (It's over. It's completely over. It's the end. I can no longer be with Kouya. I wish everything would end, not just me.)
Soubi: It means the death of you as a Fighter unit. Do you accept those terms?
Kouya: Yes.
Soubi: Then... I have no business with you. I have nothing to do with you. And I have no interest in you. It's truly over. [leaves]
Yamato: Kouya, I'm sorry... but I couldn't do anything about losing my name.
Kouya: ...... Without your name... you're no longer a Zero. Are you, Yamato? [kisses her on the forehead] Even if you're not a Zero, do you still love me? Will you die with me?
Yamato: ..... ...... Yes. If that's what you want, Kouya.
Kouya: This is the first time... I've seen you cry, Yamato. Let's die together. [takes a box-cutter out of her pocket] I always thought about dying. Living just felt like a chore. But dying isn't simple or easy. But if I could die with you, Yamato... I wouldn't be afraid.
Yamato: I don't want to die. I love you when you're alive, Kouya... I love you moving around, so warm... to see you crying, laughing. Kouya... But I'm so tired... If we can't be together in life... then I'd rather die.
Kouya: (Yamato, I love you.) Let's die together.
Yamato: Okay.
Kouya: Yamato... I love you. (I love you more than anything.) From the moment I met you, I loved you so much. Knowing that you were my Sacrifice, that you would be my destiny... I was so happy! (I love Yamato more than anybody. Yes, even more than my pitiful self... I adore her.)
Yamato: Me, too.
Kouya: [drops the box-cutter and takes out her cell phone] Now, then. It's the first time for me too, so I'm shaking a bit. Let's begin!! [breaks the phone]
Yamato: ... Kouya...
Kouya: I'll always protect you. Let us be reborn!!
[The phone is ringing in Nagisa's office]
Nagisa: Kouya? What is it? You won, of course? What? What is it?
Kouya: Nagisa-sensei. Goodbye.
Nagisa: Huh? What are you... hey, you two!!
Kouya: Sensei, I'm sorry. I'm giving back your cell phone.
Nagisa: Kouya!
Kouya: From now on we're going to live.
Nagisa: Yamato!! Wait!
Kouya: We're going to be just plain, ordinary Yamato and plain, ordinary Kouya. Your Zeroes... have died. Goodbye. [click] Wow... my hands are shaking.
Yamato: I'm shaking too. I've never disobeyed Nagisa-sensei. Kindly look after me... Kouya?
Kouya: Of course. Likewise. (If we have a bond stronger than our names... now it shall be tested.) If we died tonight... does that mean we were also reborn tonight?
Yamato: I don't understand a word you're saying, Kouya, my dear.
Kouya's Classmate (1): I think Yamamoto cuts corners in his class
Kouya's Classmate (2): You can say that again.
Kouya's Classmate (1): Cram school is way better. What do you think, Sakagami-san?
Kouya: ...whatever....
Yamato's Friend (1): Okay. Let's go to the manga cafe, then.
Random Dude (1): Hey, hey. Hold on. You wanna hang out?
Yamatos Friend: Whaaat? Are you serious?
Random Dude (1): Those are Sakuragaoka girl's school uniforms, right?
Random Dude (2): That's cute. Do you want to go to karaoke?
Yamato's Friend (1): Whaaat?
Yamato's Friend (2): What do you want to do, Yamato?
Yamato: Sorry, no boys for me today! Ha ha!
Random Dude (1): Aw, man!
Yamato: See ya!
Random Dude (1): Psht! See ya when?
Yamato: Long time no see, Sakagami. How you doing?
Kouya: ... Hello. Nice to see you.
Yamato's Friend (1): Who was that, Yamato?
Yamato: Somebody from my junior high.
Yamato's Friend (1): A friend?
Yamato: Not really.
Kouya's Classmate (1): Let's go, Sakagami-san...
Yamato: Oh, sorry, I got a call. I've got to go, sorry. Ha ha!
Yamato's Friend: What's that about, Yamato? is it a guy?!
Yamato: Heh heh, that's a secret~ I'll see you next week~!
Kouya: ...I'm going to leave now.
Kouya's Classmate: Do you have cram school, Sakagami-san?
Kouya: Yes. Goodbye
Yamato: Why don't you take off these fake ears already?
Kouya: Later. More importantly, who were those girls?
Yamato: Those were girls from school. What about you? Looks like you're hanging around with some real winners.
Kouya: We were just headed the same way.
Yamato: Hmmm. Well then, that's all right.
Kouya: It is. All right.
-
Soubi: Young ladies, why so bloodthirsty?
Yamato: Being eager does that to you.
Soubi: Not me. I'm not in the mood.
Yamato: You're not getting away. We're not here to do battle. And we don't have to bother with Aoyagi Ritsuka.
Soubi: Then I especially don't have business with you.
Yamato: We didn't say that we weren't going to touch him. We can always destroy him, y'know? And if you aren't in the mood to fight...
Kouya: Then our objective is to lynch you.
Soubi: Ahhh... me? You're going to lynch me? Why?
Yamato: Our useless comrades have made weak attempts, and now we're here to clean up their mess.
Kouya: Our name is Zero.
Soubi: Zero... Zero again?
Yuiko: Hey, it's Soubi-san! Hello! ♥ Ritsuka-kun is with sensei, he fell asleep in class! That's not like Ritsuka-kun, is it? Huh? Wha? You're leaving, Soubi-san? Why? Didn't you come to take Ritsuka-kun home? Are you okay?
Soubi: Something... just came up. Bye bye!
Yuiko: ... ... ? ? ?
Yamato: Whoaaaa! Her tits are almost as big as mine! Is she in grade school?! Kya kya ♪
Soubi: Isn't it obvious?
Kouya: So that's Aoyagi Ritsuka's girlfriend?
Soubi: What makes you think that?
Kouya: The way she talks about him. I just had a feeling.
Soubi: Your feelings are delusions.
Yamato: Oh my. What a scary face, Agatsuma-san!
Kouya: "Delusion: An idiosyncratic impression firmly maintained despite contradiction by what is generally accepted as reality, typically a symptom of a mental disorder." That is... mean.
Yamato: Heh heh~ You're mean, Agatsuma-san~
Soubi: You two. Which one of you is the Fighter?
Yamato: Who can say? What's your impression?
Soubi: Even if you don't say, I'll find out soon enough.
Kouya: True.
Yamato: Y'know... we aren't going to feel guilty about going two on one. Are you sure you want to fight alone? Might be a good idea to give Ritsuka-chan a call.
Soubi: Enough chat. Let's not waste my time. Domain systems on. Engage battle.
Yamato: What a petulant bitch! I was only trying to be nice ♥
Kouya: I accept. Engage battle.
Soubi: Your phone's ringing.
Kouya: As is yours. [to Yamato] It's Nagisa-sensei.
Yamato: Let me have it. Kouya, don't hesitate. Focus.
Kouya: Ignite! Attack with blazing fire! Temperature of 1000 degrees!
Soubi: (...so, they're the mathematical type. I'm sure they're very accurate) Defend. The heat cannot touch me. I cannot suffer your attacks. Damage is zero. (Is one of me stronger than two of them?)
Kouya: NO! Damage is 100!!
Soubi: ...ngh! (I can't prevent it.) Flames, vanquish to zero. Fire cannot thrive... with no material left to burn. It is zero.
Yamato: He's good. He's aping your style, Kouya.
Kouya: He's a filthy cheat!
Yamato: But imitation isn't innovation. He's only playing defense. He hasn't struck us once yet. And he doesn't have a Sacrifice. Huh!
Kouya: You are one. We are one with the power of two. Our force is doubled! Your four limbs... tear asunder to the four winds! You're unbelievable! How dare you change your Sacrifice?! We are given only one!! DIE! If your Sacrifice is dead, then do you must die!!
Yamato: Kouya. Calm down! Focus! Focus on your attacks!
Kouya: ...ngh. [huff]
Soubi: (The Zero series have no pain receptors. So wear down their bodies... while the mind stays unaware.) Your five limbs... as the five elements... tear asunder! (Unless I weaken them to the point of death... I lose.)
Yamato: [gets sliced!]
Kouya: Yamato?
Yamato: No problem. Go on.
Kouya: Roger.
Yamato: So this... is the kind of man that you are. Scarring a girl's face is unforgivable... y'know.
Kouya: Yamato...
Yamato: I'm cool, I'm cool.
Soubi: Forgive me. I'm no gentleman. Blades. Blades of ice...
Yamato: Kouya. He's planning to lower the temperature. Be careful!
Soubi: (...I see. So they're experienced. No old tricks for new Zeroes.)
Yamato: Heh heh. Agatsuma-san, you weak points are your left hand and your left arm. I can tell. Were you injured there? When you move, you favour that side.
Kouya: Tear asunder!
Soubi: ! (I might not... be able to win.)
Yamato: You know... Nagisa-sensei really hates you. Why is that?
Soubi: I wonder... I'm used... to being hated. No big deal. (Ah... well, either way)
Yamato: Huh! Not cute. I bet that attitude is exactly why you're hated.
Soubi: (I haven't been told to win. And nobody... ordered me to fight.)
Kouya: Well? You're not going to attack?
Soubi: I'm getting tired of this. (If it's pain... then I can bear it.)
Yamato: Even so... we're not going to stop, you know.
Kouya: We told you. This is a lynching.
Soubi: If you want to... go ahead.
-
Kouya: Nagisa-sensei. The spoils of war.
Nagisa: You did well, Sakagami Kouya. I'm very pleased! You're injured, Yamato. Are you all right?
Yamato: Aw... thank you. I'm fine.
Nagisa: If you ever become a burden... I'm going to replace you with a new Sacrifice.
Kouya: No! Yamato is the only one for me. And I am Yamato's Fighter unit.
Nagisa: That's only if you were natural. You Zero series are artificial and interchangeable!
Kouya: But how could you...
Yamato: Sensei, I'm fine. If I ever became a burden to Kouya, I'd kill myself, trust me.
Kouya: Yamato!!
Nagisa: Good. I'm glad you understand. You can go home for today.
Yamato: Okaaay! Bye now! Thank you!
Nagisa: Take care. Good night.
Kouya: Yamato. Yamato...!!
Yamato: I'm hungry, do you want to stop somewhere?
Kouya: Yamato. Listen to me.
Yamto: Hm?
Kouya: Why did you say that?!
Yamato: Nagisa-sensei is right. If I were a hindrance to you, I'd be better of dead.
Kouya: No... that's not what I mean. We're always going to be together!
Yamato: Oh, come on. "If you die then I'll die too?" I'm tired of hearing that.
Kouya: !!
Yamato: Now, now. I'm not going to die, okay? Let's go to Mr. Donut! I want a French Cruller! ♥
Kouya: If you... feel so unbothered by it all... then kiss me.
Yamato: Ah! Must it come to this? Heh. I don't mind. [lick]
Kouya:!!
Yamato: You're all red. If you like me so much, you can buy me a French Crueler ♥
Kouya: Fine. But don't blame me if you get fat!!
-
Kouya: [throwing up in the washroom] (Revolting... What should I do... I can't control this sickness...)
Yamato: [outside the washroom, on phone with Nagisa] Yes, I understand. We are to go again. Hmmm. Kouya? She's not available right now...
Nagisa: Ergh! How do you know Kouya's unavailable? You arrogant child. Eergh! I want to talk to Kouya!
Yamato: Kouya's busy throwing up right now.
Nagisa: WHAT?! What are you talking about?! What happened?! I something wrong with her? Is she all right?!
Yamato: She might be... pregnant.
Nagisa: Gyaaaaaaaaaah! Eiyaaaah! What are you saying?! Whose is it?!
Yamato: It's mine.
Nagisa: Kyaaaa! What's going on, Yamato?! Did you hit your head?!
Yamato: .......
Nagisa: there's something wrong with you! You're crazy! Look, if you do anything to Kouya, you're not going to die painlessly--
Yamato: [hangs up on Nagisa] Pregnant. It'd be great if she was.
Kouya: [coming out of the washroom] What the hell. ....They say... that you can get pregnant just by kissing.
Yamato: Either science has gone topsy-turvy... or it's just stress. What are you so afraid of... that it's making you ill?
Kouya: (It's the fear... of losing you.)
Nagisa[flashback]: I'll just prepare a new one for you. A useless Sacrifice... will be replaced, understand?!
Kouya: [crying] (I'm afraid. Nagisa-sensei says such things, just like that. Is she serious...? I can't stand this. To have my Sacrifice replaced. To be seperated from Yamato...)
Yamato: Be strong. Be strong. Just think... be strong. If only you could... then you--your everything--could be mine. All of you will be mine!!
-
Kouya: I wonder which will come... according to my information, they're all inside. Aoyagi Ritsuka. Agatsuma Soubi. The Zero Youji. Natsuo. I can take them all. But if he comes by himself... Soubi is an idiot. And if he sends a Zero, he's a coward.
Youji: Whoa. You've got such a mean streak, Soubi.
Natsuo: They'd have to be over thirty to be hags. According to the dictionary, that is. [giggle]
Youji: That's harsh!
Yamato: I heard some nasty words there. Old...? Jerks!
Youji: Hey, they're pretty cute. Good evening, we're Zero. I didn't know there were others.
Kouya: (I know the feeling.)
Youji: I don't get it. If we're new, then who needs the old ones?
Yamato: Wanna do one at a time? Which one of you is the Sacrifice?
Kouya: (So Nagisa-sensei really did... create replacements.)
Yamato: ...
Youji: I am. And on your side?
Yamato: Yeeees. That's me! ♥ Let's be friends!! HA HA!
Youji: Let's not. Whatta weird lady.
Kouya: (Why? When I have Yamato, there's no need for another!!)
Yamato: Let's forget it, Kouya. They're not our enemy.
Kouya: No. Let's settle, right now, which of us is Zero. We don't need any replacements. We don't need... you!!
Natsuo: ......
Youji: ......
Yamato: Kouya, don't get upset.
Kouya: No! Enough! I'm going to beat them!!
Yamato: Then... why don't we try out that spell?
Kouya: !! (Oh no.)
Yamato: It's useless to get into an endurance contest between Zeroes... show them that we'll finish this. That we mean it. (Soubi's one thing, but if we battle them... I won't last. I'm sorry, Kouya.)
Kouya: Hey... Zeroes possess spells that nobody else knows.
Youji: Go ahead and try, you old bag!!
Natsuo: Youjiiiii!! Youji!! Goddamn you! What did you do to Youji?!
Kouya: [crying] The Zeroes... possess spells that others don't know!!
Natsuo: Why are you crying, you bitch!! There wasn't any spell or anything yet...
Yamato: Whoops!
Natsuo: No! Don't touch him!!
Yamato: Absolute restriction. The battle is over ♥
Ritsuka: Natsuo! Is Youji... all right?!
Natsuo: Ritsuka.
Kouya: So you're Loveless.
Ritsuka: (What is this?! How could they...?!)
Yamato: Tomorrow evening at five. Two on two.
Natsuo: Don't! There's something weird with them!
Ritsuka: (This is too awful.)
Yamato: What's your answer?
Ritsuka: I accept.
Natsuo: Ritsuka! Don't! We hadn't even started, and he suddenly collapsed. I don't know what happened... there's really something messed-up with these two!!
Yamato: Aren't we great?
Ritsuka: Fine.
Natsuo: Ritsuka!
Yamato: You're fine with this too, right?
Soubi: Of course. Once Ritsuka decides, I can only obey.
-
Yamato: Ha ha! A grade-schooler playing hooky. Pardon us for last night.
Ritsuka: I thought we weren't meeting until five.
Yamato: We're on for five, this is just a little reconnaissance. Let's do tea. My treat ♥
Ritsuka: (So this... is the skin of one that feels no pain.) I have nothing to discuss with you.
Yamato: Hmm! Yeah. You're just like Seimei.
Ritsuka: You knew Seimei?
Yamato: He was just as snippy with me. In the same voice. He totally didn't take us seriously. "I don't have anything to discuss with you." Like that. What a jerk!
Ritsuka: Seimei wasn't like that! You must have pissed him off.
Yamato: I swear I didn't. Seimei was a really nasty guy!!
Ritsuka: Was not! I bet... you didn't even know Seimei that well!!
Yamato: Oh? Maybe you're the one that didn't know him.
Yamato: Go ahead, before it cools off. Oh. Maybe you don't drink coffee?
Ritsuka: (Coffee! I can't drink this slop!) It's not that.
Yamato: [plays with Ritsuka's hair ;D] Ha ha. Sorry. I lied back there. You're not like him at all.
Ritsuka: (What's with her?)
Yamato: You remind me of Kouya. You're in sixth grade, right? When I first met her, Kouya was in sixth grade, too.
[FLASHBACK]
Nagisa: I'm going to introduce you to Sakagami Kouya. You wait there. She'll be your Fighter unit. But make no mistake... Kouya doesn't belong to you. You belong to Kouya, all right?! I arranged for Kouya to have foster parents. She's not like you, got it? Answer me!!
Yamato: Yeeeeees. Nagisa-sensei, I have a question.
Nagisa: What?
Yamato: Sensei, why do you hate me so much?
Nagisa: I don't hate YOU. I hate all Sacrifices.
Yamato: So that means you like Fighters?
Nagisa. That's right. What of it?
Yamato: Nothing.
Nagisa: Now, Yamato. Say hello to Kouya.
Yamato: Hiya! [tail wagging] I'm Nakano Yamato. I've been waiting for you.
Kouya: Waiting...? But I came right on time.
[PRESENT]
Yamato: She was always kind of out of it, from the start... You know, I can understand Agatsuma-san's feelings a little. I was always being told about Kouya. I was waiting to meet her... because I was going to belong to her.
Ritsuka: Soubi doesn't belong to me.
Yamato: Whaaaaat? Oh really? Poor Agatsuma-san! Hya hya hya~
Ritsuka: What are you talking about?
Yamato: Hey, what's this wound?
Ritsuka: (Don't touch it! What's with this chick?) It doesn't have anything to do with this!!
[FLASHBACK]
Yamato: You have a lot of injuries, don't you, Kouya? Are you being careless?
Kouya: Not really.
Yamato: [touches her wrist] Hey... why are you cut here?
Kouya: No reason.
Yamato: If you mess up, you could die. Stay away from this part.
Kouya: I won't. [giggle] I don't intend to die. But... I thought that it might hurt, so... I was wondering if I could feel pain, at least once.
Yamato: Hmmm. Then... [starts cutting self] It'll be the same for my wrist, too.
Kouya: Wha... Yamato!!
Yamato: We're the same, right? Your wrist and my wrist. If I feel pain, I'll let you know.
Kouya: Yamato!
Yamato: Even if my wrist doesn't hurt... I hurt here. My heart. When you do that, it hurts me.
[PRESENT]
Yamato: Are you being bullied?
Ritsuka: No!
Yamato: Ooh! Hey, hey. Where's your name? Show me yours, I'll show you mine~
Ritsuka: Name?
Yamato: Your name, Loveless. Where's your name?
Ritsuka: I don't have anything like that.
Yamato: You just don't know about it. It might appear on a part of your body that you can't see. Maybe I can check for you?
Ritsuka: Nice try!
Yamato: Ah ha! Mine's on my boobs. You wanna see~?
Ritsuka: No! [stands up too quickly and knocks the coffee onto Yamato]
Yamato: Ouch!
Ritsuka: Are you all right? I'm sorry. What the hell're you doing? In public!!
Yamato: As if I'd actually show you my tits for real, you pervert!
Ritsuka: That's my line!
Yamato: You're a funny kid. You don't want... to find your name? It's totally special when two people share the same name. It's as if heaven decided it. Your chosen one.
Ritsuka: I hate stuff like that. I make my own choices. Your partner isn't decided by a name. You choose that person for yourself.
Yamato: You say that because you know nothing.
Ritsuka: Hey. Where are you going? (We're in the middle of a conversation!)
Yamato: The bathroom? I don't want this to stain.
[FLASHBACK]
Yamato: Kouya, has your name appeared?
Kouya: On my chest.
Yamato: It did? Mine, too!
Kouya: You want to see?
Yamato: I do.
Kouya: [lifts up her shirt]
Yamato: [touches Kouya's chest] We have the same name.
Kouya: Yeah.
Yamato: Your breasts are tiny.
Kouya: Shut up.
[PRESENT]
Yamato: [in the washroom, looking at her name] (I knew it. My name is fading... If I battle today... it will probably disappear) Why...? Why only me...? (I don't want to become different from Kouya. Is it a fool who's a slave to her name? But this name... brought her to me. And now this name... will take her away.)
Ritsuka: I wonder why... her and Soubi... They seem to be in pain. (Like I thought, coffee's gross!)
Waitress: Sir, should I warm that coffee up for you?
Ritsuka: No, that's okay!! (Hot... coffee...) ......
Yamato: Sorry to keep you waiting, grade-schooler~ ♥
Ritsuka: .......
Yamato: What's with that face?
Ritsuka: You know... I think I know your secret now.
-
Kouya: Battle systems engage.
Soubi: We accept. Ritsuka, what is our course of action?
Ritsuka: Don't think of them as Zeroes! Think of them as normal people. Don't injure them. But... make them cry in pain.
Soubi: You want to hear some screams?
Ritsuka: No, you idiot! Not like that... er. No... maybe it is like that... whatever!!
Soubi: Why?
Ritsuka: I don't know. But I think that pain may be able to change something.
Soubi: Pain, eh? A word I like. One is born into the world only by passing through pain. Needles. Throbbing pain is proof of life. Become like rain, and shower down upon this target.
Ritsuka: Needles... Sounds like it'll hurt...
Sooubi: Quite. I hurt badly with needles.
Kouya: A useless attack! We feel no pain!
Yamato: [gets hit by the needles]
Ritsuka: (How much pain can it be? She didn't even twitch an eyebrow...)
Yamato: Kouya, retaliate! Hurry up and bind them!
Kouya: Acknowledged. Sever one into two. And from three sides, take your four limbs from your body.
[BONDAGE MAGIIIIC]
Kouya: Grade-schooler!! Because you won't accept, your Fighter unit will suffer. Because you turn your back on your name.
Ritsuka: You old witch!! Your courage is just an act!!
Soubi: Send a current through each impaled needle. An electric pulse. Assault the enemy... with electricity.
Yamato: ...!! (Withstand it!)
Kouya: It's useless.
Yamato: [collapses]
Kouya: Yamato...
Yamato: It's nothing. I just tripped. (I can't look at her. Kouya will see the pain in my face.)
Kouya: .......
Yamato: Ha ha. How dare you call me a witch, you little punk! Kouya, go ahead and do it.
Kouya: I shall... bind you! Confine the target's freedom. Yoke and restrict!
Soubi: I refuse!!
Yamato: Kouya! Concentrate! Your spells don't have enough power!
Soubi: I like the face you make when you try to bear the pain. It's almost... alive. Almost... sexy.
Kouya: ...what are you talking about...
Soubi: A girl who lives as a corpse, knowing no pain... cannot defeat me. To feel is to thrive.
Yamato: (He's preying on Kouya's weakness.) Don't get caught up in his words, Kouya. It's a spell. A bluff.
Soubi: You're like a pretty butterfly. Shall I make you a specimen? Impaled with a pin in my collection?
Yamato: Ah...!!
Ritsuka: !! You idiot! Stop it, Soubi! That's too much! [to Yamato] Hey, you! You're hurting, aren't you?! When the coffee splashed you, it burned, didn't it? You can feel pain, right?
Yamato: Kouya, don't let him fool you!
Kouya: Yamato... oh no.
Yamato: This doesn't hurt at all.
Kouya: Yamato!
Yamato: NO! I'm telling you, it doesn't hurt!
Kouya: Show me your name! [rips open Yamato's shirt] Your name... is gone... why?
Yamato: I don't know.
Kouya: Since when? Why?! Yamato!
Yamato: I don't know! I'd like to know, too!! [crying] Why only me? I'd rather die than be a burden.
Soubi: Are you forfeiting the battle?
Kouya: We can't continue.
Soubi: Then...
Ritsuka: Okay, it's over!! Fight's over!! If you don't have the will to fight, then it's over!!
Soubi: Ritsuka, say "it's closed."
Ritsuka: It's closed!! Enough!
Soubi: When you start this, you can't stop in the middle of it. Forfeiting a battle is worse than losing.
Ritsuka: I don't know what you're talking about! You shouldn't fight if you can get away with not fighting.
Soubi: Ritsuka!
Ritsuka: You're mistaken! When the opponent says they quit, you can quit!
Soubi: That's careless. You can't quit--you have to settle it.
Ritsuka: Why are you so thickheaded? All right, fine. Are you going to obey me or not? Which is it?
Soubi: If you forfeit, then you can never again wage a battle with us. Nor with anyone else.
Yamato: (It's over. It's completely over. It's the end. I can no longer be with Kouya. I wish everything would end, not just me.)
Soubi: It means the death of you as a Fighter unit. Do you accept those terms?
Kouya: Yes.
Soubi: Then... I have no business with you. I have nothing to do with you. And I have no interest in you. It's truly over. [leaves]
Yamato: Kouya, I'm sorry... but I couldn't do anything about losing my name.
Kouya: ...... Without your name... you're no longer a Zero. Are you, Yamato? [kisses her on the forehead] Even if you're not a Zero, do you still love me? Will you die with me?
Yamato: ..... ...... Yes. If that's what you want, Kouya.
Kouya: This is the first time... I've seen you cry, Yamato. Let's die together. [takes a box-cutter out of her pocket] I always thought about dying. Living just felt like a chore. But dying isn't simple or easy. But if I could die with you, Yamato... I wouldn't be afraid.
Yamato: I don't want to die. I love you when you're alive, Kouya... I love you moving around, so warm... to see you crying, laughing. Kouya... But I'm so tired... If we can't be together in life... then I'd rather die.
Kouya: (Yamato, I love you.) Let's die together.
Yamato: Okay.
Kouya: Yamato... I love you. (I love you more than anything.) From the moment I met you, I loved you so much. Knowing that you were my Sacrifice, that you would be my destiny... I was so happy! (I love Yamato more than anybody. Yes, even more than my pitiful self... I adore her.)
Yamato: Me, too.
Kouya: [drops the box-cutter and takes out her cell phone] Now, then. It's the first time for me too, so I'm shaking a bit. Let's begin!! [breaks the phone]
Yamato: ... Kouya...
Kouya: I'll always protect you. Let us be reborn!!
[The phone is ringing in Nagisa's office]
Nagisa: Kouya? What is it? You won, of course? What? What is it?
Kouya: Nagisa-sensei. Goodbye.
Nagisa: Huh? What are you... hey, you two!!
Kouya: Sensei, I'm sorry. I'm giving back your cell phone.
Nagisa: Kouya!
Kouya: From now on we're going to live.
Nagisa: Yamato!! Wait!
Kouya: We're going to be just plain, ordinary Yamato and plain, ordinary Kouya. Your Zeroes... have died. Goodbye. [click] Wow... my hands are shaking.
Yamato: I'm shaking too. I've never disobeyed Nagisa-sensei. Kindly look after me... Kouya?
Kouya: Of course. Likewise. (If we have a bond stronger than our names... now it shall be tested.) If we died tonight... does that mean we were also reborn tonight?
Yamato: I don't understand a word you're saying, Kouya, my dear.
