Bye Bye, Earth (2024) s01e01 Episode Script
Departure at the Red Hour
1
Why?
This is my final responsibility
as your Enola.
What're you waiting for, Belle?!
Why?!
Bye Bye,
Bye Bye,
Earth
Lake Chaser
What's all the fuss about?
There's no festival, and they're
not trying a criminal either.
See, the river rose and a seed
from the sea washed in.
Oh yeah?
Now it's bloomin' in the lake
and spreadin' poison everywhere.
A fish flower is poisoning the lake?
With salt. Salt water.
Must be tryin' to convert the fresh water.
Just look at the young bulls.
It already got one of 'em.
So the mice decided to ask a nomad for help.
A nomad, eh? Then your worries are over!
Nomad
One who travels
Except the nomad's got this girl
who lives with him, and he sent her.
A girl?
I hear strange rumors about her.
They say she got herself kicked out
of Park City for stirrin' up trouble.
And that's not all.
No one can take their eyes off her.
After all
Never seen that before.
Where's she from?
Looks like a full house.
What is that?
Gives me the creeps.
No ears, no horns
What is she?
I've never heard of such a tribe.
She doesn't have a hair on her body!
She doesn't have anything.
What a weirdo.
She's featureless
The same old thing, huh?
What a strange species.
Where did she come from?
One day
Belle Lablac! That's my name.
I'm here on orders
from my master, Sian Lablac.
Thank you for coming, Lady Belle.
I am the arbiter of Weather Wheel Tower.
Nice to meet you.
So, where's my opponent?
Over there.
Its many arms are thicker than tree trunks.
Its bright red body deflects
swords and spears.
Its mouth breathes inky poison.
My master said it was probably a negroni.
Granted, I won't know
for sure till I see it for myself.
So you'll slay it?
Flower flesh is my favorite food.
I don't care what kind.
Relax. I promise I'll take it down.
How beastly
Tch. So I'm a barbarian just
'cause I only eat grass and fruit?
What are you doing?
Making myself lighter.
I don't believe it!
She's totally featureless!
Move it. Coming through.
The water's still cold.
It's a negroni all right.
Though it's awfully big for one.
You're up, partner.
Sing, Runding!
Run!
I smell salt water.
Crap!
Salt water!
Oh no!
Save the food!
This is so bad!
Get it out of here!
What a disaster!
It'll all be ruined!
If this keeps up
Hey, why did you come here?
Don't you have a home?
Want go home The sea
Why don't you?
Can't get back now
Die here
Spread seeds
Sorry.
Th-Thank you so much!
We'll deliver your reward
to your house later.
Mind if I take this seed and that arm?
What do you want them for?
Like I said, flower flesh is my favorite.
I don't believe it
How beastly.
They'll probably smash every last seed.
If I ever have to fight on that side,
then
I'm home, Master.
Good work.
Sian
Why does he bother doing that?
He could just use magic.
Same goes for that tussle today.
I didn't have to do it.
Sian would've done a better job.
There we are.
What is that?
Spoils of war!
Well struck. You cleaved it cleanly.
But you could still bring out a sharper edge.
I wanted to see what this thing could do.
Learn to unleash your sword's
best in a single strike.
Now then, what will you do with this?
Eat it, just like any other fish flower.
I suppose eating is the best way
to mourn the dead.
There's more to negronis than their flesh.
Their leather is tough, too.
Maybe I'll try making shoes, then.
There you go again.
Delicious.
You're ruining it.
It's called being a connoisseur.
If you care that much about flavor,
why don't you cook for yourself?
Come on, that was a joke!
Delicious.
Hey, Master.
Why do you think this negroni left the sea?
Who knows? Perhaps it grew
unhappy with life there.
It wanted to go back.
It was trying to do its duty as a flower.
The duty of one who spreads seeds.
Duty?
Flowers aren't alone.
Everything in this world tries
to intermingle with everything else.
They were all afraid of me.
You'd have done a better job
if you'd gone instead.
What could I teach a fish?
You're so narrow-minded. Why won't you use
your skills for anything but teaching?
That is my role as an Enola.
Enola
An instructor
We won't be able to stay here long either.
Shall we go ahead and move, then?
There are still plenty of places
in this country you haven't seen.
Will we find people like me there?
No.
I've never met anyone like you
on my previous visits.
If we keep going on like this,
the Army of Insatiable Emptiness
will take me sooner or later.
Army of Insatiable Emptiness
Do not speak of them.
You have no idea what they're like.
I know what you've taught me.
They're people who can't enjoy
the world anymore, right?
I'll be done for if they ever
catch me. I'm sure of it.
Where can I go to meet people like me?
I want to intermingle with the world too.
Living like this hurts.
I'd call that feeling inside you homesickness.
Homesickness? What's that?
Well
It can be love of your hometown,
longing for utopia,
or the painful inability to love
yourself and where you are.
Then teach me how to cure my homesickness.
I don't have a home.
In that case, why not go on a journey?
Listen to me, Belle.
Schwert Land
Country of Swords
There isn't a soul like you in Schwert Land.
But if you journey forth
and travel the world,
you may be able to find
a world that's truly yours.
Park City
Go to Park City and undergo
the trials to become a nomad.
I know you can do it.
After all, you are my student.
Where did that come from?
Traveling means putting your
entire being on the line.
No one can help you.
I may be your Enola, but I cannot become you,
just like you cannot become me.
I know. Our life together
has to an end someday,
and that will be the beginning
It's your decision to make. Don't rush it.
A world of my own
Runding?
Who's that girl?
They say she was born from a stone.
Seriously?
She gives me the creeps.
She really is awful!
She doesn't even have ears or a tail.
She's featureless.
Featureless!
Did you hear someone took her in?
There must be something wrong with her.
The stonecutter did.
Who'd want a kid like her?
Beats me.
You okay?
Why's she so strong?
I found a friend
Who's there?!
Hey, wait!
Halt!
To arms!
Durchbohren Sie die Welt.
You won't escape!
Pierce the world!
Durchbohren Sie die Welt
Pierce the World
Why did you do this?
My friend
Is it because you wanted that sword?
Oh, so you understand.
Well, if you'll excuse us
It's fine.
I won't blame anyone for my loneliness.
We won't have to worry
about food for a while.
We need to talk, Sian.
What's this about?
I'm going to undertake
the trials so I can travel.
I can see you're serious.
You made up your mind awfully fast.
Go and get our sword.
Now then, this will be my last lesson to you.
You can't become a nomad
unless you take on a curse.
A curse can take many forms
depending on the life of its bearer.
This curse is the first trial
on your path to becoming a nomad.
It will continue to haunt you
as you journey forth.
In my case, I can't use my power
to do anything except teach.
Curses are passed down through nomad blood.
Are you ready?
What is the goal of your journey, child?
Sing it loud and clear!
I I want to know my roots!
I want to meet other people like me!
I want I want to intermingle
with this world, too!
Trust that this curse will one day
become a blessing and accept it.
Something's not right.
Sian, your face looks like
Like you've never seen it before?
That means you're about
to finish your final lesson.
No, Sian You're disappearing!
A graduate no longer needs
memories of her master.
Only his teachings need live on.
And that way, you'll never
realize my ulterior motive.
Your what?
I'm entrusting it to you so that you'll
visit places I couldn't reach.
I figured it would be something like this.
Damn you for toying with my mind!
Enola, my ass!
Damn it!
I'm sorry, Belle.
Cutting me down will free
you from that pain.
You're always doing this!
Always trying to make sure no one needs you!
That is my destiny as one who teaches.
Why?
Your parents won't be coming for you.
Why? Because from now on,
I shall be your parent.
Come with me.
I'll teach you how to use that sword.
Why?!
Someday you'll learn the meaning
of "Erehwon," the spell upon your sword.
Utopia
The true, long-lost meaning
of the word we know as "utopia."
I love you, Sian.
You'll find a better man, my daughter.
This is my final responsibility
as your Enola.
What are you waiting for, Belle?!

as a solist for a time.
God will never allow it.
Don't tell me I can't cut anything anymore?
The girl of reason.
