Help...
Help me...
W-what? Who is it!?
Help me... Reisen...
You know me...? Could it be...!?
Moon's tears... You should feel them...
Those loitering though a distorted railroad,
bewildered by destiny,
continue to lament and scream.
Burned to a crimson crystal
eyes lose sight of the heart splitting apart.
Seeing off tomorrow,
are they rusting away?
I met you by chance,
being born in infinite dimensions.
Embrace golden wishes,
and soar through eternity!
OVER THE DARK. Pass through the darkness!
Become a thousand of lit lamps!
No matter how much split apart,
a scar that cannot be healed remains.
This desolated road that fell into ruin,
if you follow it without slacking off,
proudly, it will
continue shining forever.
These greedy Humans, that's what getting one's hand bitten by a pet dog is!
We hit them with everything we had, yet... it's still not enough!?
But this amount... It's a matter of time before the barrier breaks.
Strange... Mankind is growing too fast... Why no one have noticed it!?
It's all beyond our calculations. Their vitality to be so strong...
What's your opinion on the matter, Marius-sama?
We will commence Code E3.
E3..!? Now's not the time to...
However the Moon is already losing its brightness...
That's right. They say Mana ensurance is uncertain...
But we don't have scope for Elysion to orbit!
I have a plan. Summon the troops at once!
Target is Tera... Gensokyo!
Ouuch. What's happening...?
Are you alright?
Reisen!
That's... Luna's ship...
Luna...?
Moon's emissary... They probably came for...
Kaguya-sama, right?
Yagokoro Eirin... You do know why we came here, right?
You won't learn, do you...? I won't hand over the princess!
Do you want to repeat mistakes of the past?
No matter what you say, master's words are final!
Fools...
The ship has disappeared!?
It's a danmaku!
Take care of Kaguya-sama!
Okay!
We've made it in time, haven't we?
Yes... but...
It's just a matter of time if it stays like this.
Kuh...
Miko of Hakurei!?
Hey, you guys! What's with this uproar!?
Kya!
That's terrible. Bamboo grove is a sea of flames.
Hey! Marisa! That was dangerous!
Tewi! Now!
Yees!
Ancient...
Duper!
Hee~h, aren't you doing great.
Miko of Hakurei!
What?
Why can you penetrate like that?
That's...
Great Barrier Disturbance.
Ah...
Yukari... When did you...?
Like a wave breaking on the shore retreats... the Barrier once again repeats the ebb and flow...
Now is the time when Gensokyo's Barrier is the weakest. And the full-moon. It's not impossible.
Anyway, such information and this place... How did you...?
Don't think the enemy will appear only in front of you.
Eh?
Udonge!
We've been had...!
Eh!?
Kaguya-sama!
That's right... The emissary was a decoy... All was done by you...
But, knifes won't work agaisnt me.
Sakuya...
But, you should still feel the pain.
I won't let you!
Wha-?! Those're... Eyes of the Moon... Who exactly are you...!?
I have been dispatched by the Luna family...
Keeping Kaguya-sama under surveillance and gathering intelligence are my true missions.
Princess, please, return to the Moon! The Moon is in need of Her Royal Highness' power.
It needs...?
We have commited sins, and have been degraded to this land... What do you want from us now?
What is happening on the Moon?
That will be explained by someone else.
Reisen...
Ah!?
Can you hear me?
You are the one from before...
My name is Kinako. A Moon Rabbit, just like you.
Kinako... What is happening on the Moon?
Our birthplace, the Moon is on the verge of dying.
The Moon is... dying...?!
Yes, Mana is becoming weaker.
Mana... Moon's energy!?
Yes. The stars, planets, just like us, conceive life.
In the midst of the war with Humans, the Moon has lost that balance...
Mana governs over Moon's life. This fact can't be known to Humans.
Reisen, you know of the "Hourai Elixir", right?
Elixir... The forbidden...!?
Mana lives. Just like us.
Thereupon, if you would make us the Elixir, we could save the Moon.
The Moon... Luna's ruler, Marius-sama agrees on it.
If Mana is a life too then... it'll become immortal!?
That's right.
If the Moon regains its brightness, we won't lose to Humans.
At dawn, we'd like to welcome Kaguya-sama as the Moon's princess again.
Marius-sama have said so.
While you have long been banished, I know that asking now for help is arbitrary.
I'm deeply sorry.
You... don't have to apologise...
May I... ask one thing?
Eh?
Is Rin-chan... doing well?
Rin...? She meant the master? Yep... she's fine?
Marius... My father will continue the attack until we go back.
The damage will only increase if we won't do anything...
You're going...?
Yes... If they need the Elixir, they won't kill us.
You wouldn't die if you were killed, anyway.
Why won't you take me with you? I'd be a hindrance?
It's not like that. We want you to protect Eientei while we are away.
You're going to war?
Because I... once escaped... I want to be of help for the Moon...
We'll go by the Moon's Corridor. I'll be leading the way.
Ojou-sama...
Thank you for taking care of me...
Everyone, come back safely! Promise me!
Okay! We're going!
It's been a while... my daughter, Kaguya.
Marius...!
Have you finally decided to cooperate?
For the sake of people of the Moon, we shall make the Elixir. But, I have no will to return.
Hmm... so you don't want to succeed the throne?
I do not. In exchange, from this point on, don't meddle with us anymore.
Why is that?
I just want to live peacefully on Earth...
I see... You've come to like Tera that much.
Understood... I promise you.
That's...!?
The Elixir is halfway completed?
Yes. All that's left is to make the flower bloom.
This voice...
Kinako-san!? Don't tell me you have...?
Yes...
It's strange, don't you think?
By the looks she's a common Moon Rabbit, but how did she completed the Hourai Elixir up to this point?
Eirin's research data should be already destroyed.
Yagokoro Omoikane...
!?
She was Luna's genius scientist. Eirin-sama's mother.
I have met het in the past.
I got interested by chance, and helped with the research for years.
But, controlling the flower was too much for me, after all.
Flower?
The flower of Hourai.
A flower that blooms one night a thousand years. You can't make the Elixir if it doesn't bloom.
But, if we have Kaguya-sama's power we can make it bloom anytime.
Really?
Just watch.
From one flower you get three. The seed is the Elixir.
Wooow...
But...
I don't think mother leaked research details to anyone...
On top of that...
She died in a research accident while I was still young...
Maybe she met her before my birth...
She's too young.
Huh?
What is this black crystal...?
Moonstone's crystallization... Luna Crystal. Have you forgotten?
Eh. It's the Mana Stone?! It lost its light...
So it's the truth that the Moon is losing its power... But why now...?
Kinako-san... Will this really save the Moon?
Of course...
What!?
That's...!?
Mana Vortex!
Which means this place is centre of Luna...!?
Sakuya!? Why are you in the Crystal...!?
Mana Stone imprisons power inside... As for the usage...
Ah...!
Don't tell me...!?
Kukuku... You've done well, Kinako.
Thank you very much, Marius-sama.
Hey! What is the meaning of this!?
We've made the Elixir so let us go to Earth!
Aah... Of course, I'll let you go.
After Code E3 has been executed!
Code... E3!?
Okay, bring me the remaining Elixir.
Thank you for cooperation. Haahhahhahahaha...!
Not good! It's so hard it won't bugde!
It can lock power other than Mana... It's all over...
Code E3... What on earth did he mean by that?
Earth's... reset...
Reset!?
Yes... It's a plan to erase Earth's lifeform...
Erasure of lifeform...? Is that... even possible?
I doubted my ears at first, too.
Long ago... Lunarians, who moved to the Moon, have detected that life dwells on Earth.
Then, in order to learn the process of evolution and how the spieces prosper, they've named Earth, the enourmous test site, "Tera",
and, basing on their genes, they've created a person.
They... made a Human!?
Yes. And even Demons...
But, because of Human's short life-span, yet such fecundity, they were under threat of not knowing how to stop it,
they condensed Mana and created Elysion, a weapon capable of destroying the origin of life-form.
Perhaps, if it was to be used... Humans, not to mention other livings on Earth...
All of it would became extinct.
So, you learned of this plan, disobeyed and got captured...
Yes...
Saving the Moon was a mere excuse, huh... They need immense amount of Mana to use the weapon...
That's no joke! If they did that then Gensokyo and... Everyone will disappear!
Looks like you have a problem...
Eh!?
Mokou...!? Why are you here!?
I just came to sneak on the Hourai secret.
Anyway, we can't afford to lose time. Stay put.
Hou Yoku... Ten Shou!
Phoenix Wings Soaring the Sky
Hou Yoku... Ten Shou!
Phoenix Wings Soaring the Sky
Strange... Luna's counterattack has stopped...
Sir! Here!
He is...!?
Foolish Humans, ones above ground. My name is Marius, the ruler of this Moon.
The time to put an end to this foolish fight has finally come.
Forgotten fear, trapped in endless desires helpless Humans...
Today, on this very day... you shall deeply regret on the other side that
you have pointed your fangs at us!
What... do you say?
Not a problem. Let him be.
Foolish king...
He doesn't seem to know which side the goddess of victory is at...
What's happening!?
Marius!
The one being trapped in his own desires is you!
No matter how many times you bury the past in the darkness, you won't hide it from the moonlight.
Your dirty dreams... It all ends here!
Prepare yourself!
Murderous Dolls!
Invisible Full Moon!
Did we get him!?
No...
Kukuku...
It haven't worked out. Is that all you've got?
He couldn't have dogded! Don't tell me...?!
Kukuku... It's better than I thought. This power... It's appropriate for me...
What did you...!?
Marius... You have... drank...!?
That's right. At that time... the time I lost Selene... I swore!
I swore that I will obtain power exceeding that of god's!
Stop joking around!
You banished me, using the law as a pretext...
That you have drank...!?
You knew everything, yet... At that time, knowing everything you betrayed us, huh!?
That is why I said I welcome you to the Moon as an atonement.
Oh well... Looks like you prefer the lower world, aren't you?
On top of that, that Earth... This is the end of it, though!
Haahhahhahhahha...
And this is... the last one.
Did you know? If you drink two of it, you will gain even greater power.
Eh!?
Fuhahahaha... Now I'm invincible! I'm stronger than even the gods...
I won't lose anything again!
Kinako! Have you served me well.
What do you want in return? Status? Prestige?
I have only one desire... Marius, it's your death.
Wha...t...?
Guahhh!
My face...! My face is...!
Marius... is crumbling...!?
What does this mean!?
Overdose....
Overdose?
It's true that when you drink Hourai Elixir once you gain immortality. But...
drinking it twice makes it too powerful. Body cells can't take it.
It becomes a poison.
You... You scum! You knew that and...!?
Why! Kinako!? What have I ever done to you!?
Long ago, by Luna's, your invasion on the Moon, I lost all my friends and family...
Barely escaping death, I was saved by Omoikane-sama...
Later, I assisted with developing the Hourai Elixir...
But then on one day, Omoikane-sama suddenly stopped the research, and consigned all of the research data to oblivion.
At that time, I haven't realized it, but...
But now I do!
And I have once again...
I have once again had family taken from me!
Sa...kura...? Is that you, Sakura?
Your real name... It's Sakura, isn't it?
Eh!?
I remembered... faintly, but... there was a Moon Rabbit that have been assisting mother...
They were white back then...
Sa... Sakura!? Impossible...! Back then you have...!
She concealed the infomation about the Elixir, and in revenge you killed us, and sent the corpses into the sky...
That's...! So that accident in the middle of the research was all a lie, huh!?
How terrible...
Was it disappointing. Back then, the flower had already bloomed once.
So, in order to complete the research, I took a dose for myself.
But you have already understood, right...? How it feels being on the brink of death... that pain...
Scared?
It hurts...! Why am I...? I'll... exceed... the gods...!
Kaguya... I... to you...
Formerly, there were Earthlings that faced harsh challenges for my sake...
Compared to that courage, you're...! you're not worth of calling to me underfoot...!
Kaguya...
It's been done, huh...
Drop on the Moon at once! Charge at the buiding!
Sakura... Is this... Is this what you wanted!?
You and Marius... You're not any different from him!
What can you, who escaped, possibly understand!?
Anyway this is... just the beginning.
Elysion.
Mana, initializing power charge.
Target confirmed. Starting countdown.
What are you doing?
If you won't act, everone on Earth will disappear?
You...! We haven't agreed on this!
Looks like we too have been just one of the pawns...
All fleets, change course! Shoot down the Elysion!
It's no good! It won't stop!
Can't we do anything!?
It's no use... with this destroyed...
It's not possible to abort the program now...
What's left is to destroy Elysion directly!
It's main body should be at the back of the Moon, in the space!
Let's go!
Elysion will not move... Isn't that right?
I've never heard of Elixir affecting Mana.
As I thought... you're just like your mother.
What are you going to do? Everyone will notice eventually.
Elysion will move.
Eh?
Mana is a form of life dwelling on Moon...
That is a fragment of Moon Rabbit's heart...
In order to return it to its natural form...
This is the only way it can be done...
I'm returning everything to Mana...
with this eternal life of mine...
A light is spreading from the Moon...!
Cancelling countdown. Entering immediate mission execution mode.
Target... Luna.
Eh!?
Laser is hitting the...!?
Reisen... can you hear me?
We returned the damage we suffered... We continued the loop of hatred.
But you were different...
You asked yourself questions, you distanced yourself from the war.
You haven't hurt anyone... You haven't hated anyone...
That is surely... one of the answers...
That's why... don't blame yourself anymore.
Live on, hoping for peace...
It's been a while, hasn't it? Eirin.
Mo...ther...!?
The way to break this endless time... The way to go where you are...
That Moon Rabbit has told me it.
But... you won't come, right?
Yes... Sorry...
Then go now! Everyone is waiting...
Eirin!
Is it fun in Gensokyo?
Eirin!
Master!
Kaguya... sama...?
What happened...?
Elysion's attack have hit the Moon.
You've been saved by the Elixir's power... But everything else was...
Is that so... Was that... a dream...?
Moon's reset, huh...
We're pulling back!
Is that okay...?
Leave what you want.
Stupid fellows... Even with one side disappearing...
the war won't be settled...
Let's return home.
Why...?
Why!? I... returned to save everyone, yet...!
Why am I again... the only survivor...?
Then do you want... to try joining them!?
The ones who remained... also have things they need to do...
Okay...
Let's go home. To Gensokyo...

In this elapsing time
I'm looking for something I can't convey.
Sakuya~! Hurry up and start working! It's been piling up since you left.
In this small world
Sakuya~! Hurry up and start working! It's been piling up since you left.
I continue my journey.
I sometimes shed tears of sadness.
Ojou-sama... You won't ask anything?
I sometimes shed tears of joy.
What are you saying now?
I then grab them and continue walking.
Who do you think I am?
I'm the only one who can order you around!
Transient feelings
Any complaints?
painfully tremble.
Ojou-sama...
In a freezing cold night,
even if there was a wind blowing,
I want to firmly step forward.
So... Lunarians and Moon Rabbits... everyone disappeared?
O, flower of emptiness that bloomed alone and flew down!
Probably... But, something is bugging me...
You tenderly envelop, not knowing others.
Probably... But, something is bugging me...
You dye hearts that have been hurt.
Bugging you?
A dazzling radiance.
Yeah...
Say... don't you feel it?
O, city people who have laws and will eventually die!
If everything have really disappeared...
Are you just living without any reason...?
why is the Moon shining so brightly then?
So you will shine for someone's sake,
looking up
at that sky,
I pledge.
A prayer without fear...
