Record of Ragnarok (2021) s01e09 Episode Script
Tyrant of the Ocean
Göll,
as the name suggests,
Völundr is the technique
in which man and Valkyrie become one.
We do not simply transform
our body into a weapon.
In other words,
we share the same fate.
We fight together and…
There's no need to cry.
Reginleif was well aware
of what kind of battle this was.
Listen.
When this time comes for you,
learn from Reginleif
and prepare yourself for your fate.
Those fucking bastard gods!
I swear I'll make them pay for this!
THE THIRD BOUT'S COMBATAN
FOR THE GODS IS POSEIDON
-Poseidon?
-Poseidon?
They're not letting up at all.
I will go.
When did he show up?
What's going on here?
I thought that the souls summoned
to Ragnarok take their strongest form,
their form during their peak,
regardless of their age at death.
That's exactly right. So how come you're…
Got you.
Indeed, he isn't what I expected.
However,
the way he moved just now,
that's the move of a confident master.
No doubt about it. He's the real thing!
It has been over 400 years
since I passed on.
During that time, I have never ceased
honing my swordsmanship.
My Ganryu's evolution has not yet ended.
In other words,
this is the golden age of Kojiro!
Hrist,
you'll go, won't you?
Yes.
TYRANT OF THE OCEAN
What's with the arena for the third bout?
Wow. That's one heck of a remodeling job.
I mean, there's even ocean water.
Ocean water?
Does that mean the next guy is…
Really? Him?
Ahem.
Now that mankind has lost twice in a row,
it's time for the third bout
in the final battle
between god and man, Ragnarok!
Why is it
that the gods burden pitiful mankind
with even more cruel trials?
But that's what gods are.
That is the gods!
That is what the gods are!
Following the mighty Zeus,
the fighter for the gods is…
this gentleman!
While Zeus is the god of the cosmos,
this gentleman, who controls all the seas,
is the tyrant of the oceans!
The ruler of the seas!
-I knew it!
-I knew it!
Even the gods fear incurring the wrath
of the most fearsome god!
The second of
the three brothers of Olympus,
also known as Zeus Enalios,
"Zeus of the Ocean."
His name is…
Poseidon!
Such riffraff.
So it's Poseidon?
He's even worse at taking a joke
than you are, Dad.
Even the other gods are frightened.
Isn't Poseidon Zeus' older brother?
And the idiotic fool
who will face the fierce god of the sea,
or rather,
the fighter for mankind is this man!
Who is the greatest swordsman of all time?
Is it the demon of Mt. Kurama
who sliced up the Taira clan,
Minamoto no Yoshitsune?
Nay!
Is it the founder of the Shinkage School
who struck fear into Shingen Takeda,
Nobutsuna Kamiizumi Ise-no-kami?
Nay!
Is it the master of the silent sword,
who the great Shusaku Chiba said
he was no match for,
Matashiro Takayanagi?
Nay!
I would venture that
it is this man who is the greatest!
How can it be that this "loser"
is the greatest in history?
Is it due to his ultimate move,
the Tsubame Gaeshi?
Or is it due to
his desire to get vengeance on Musashi?
Nay!
Nay!
Nay!
No! That's not why at all!
Even in defeat, he evolves!
Even in death, he evolves
step by step to become the greatest!
Even now, he continues on his road
to becoming the greatest!
The greatest loser in history!
SASAKI
KOJIRO
KOJIRO SASAKI
That old geezer is
the next fighter for mankind?
There's no way he'll win!
What are they thinking?
I won't stand for it!
I will never stand for it!
How come the guy my dad defeated
is the fighter for mankind?
My father, Musashi Miyamoto,
is the only one suited to the title of
the greatest swordsman of mankind!
The Book of Five Rings
penned by my father,
the holy book of combat,
is the greatest evidence of that!
Masters, isn't that right?
I'd say that's right.
Musashi was the man who defeated even me.
Indeed.
However, I would like to hear
Sir Musashi's opinion on the matter.
MUSASHI MIYAMOTO
FOUNDER OF NITEN ICHI-RYU STYLE
It looks like
mankind is getting restless, Brünnhilde!
I trust in his desire to
continuously hone his skills.
What the heck?
Who is that man?
Quite the surprise.
Well, well.
It seems as if mankind
still has some interesting characters.
The waves have calmed.
Could it be that old guy's doing?
Quit being so surprised!
That's just some dumb deception
by that Sasaki.
Right, Father?
Father, why did you slice up
The Book of Five Rings?
They are no longer needed!
He has achieved the state
that all sword practitioners strive for.
The Number One Under the Sun!
Kojiro Sasaki truly has become
The Number One Under the Sun!
The third fighter for the gods, Poseidon!
The third fighter for mankind,
Kojiro Sasaki!
THE THIRD BOUT IN THE FINAL BATTLE
BETWEEN GOD AND MAN
Fight!
The tension is through the roof!
What's going on?
How come neither of them is moving?
If either steps forward,
they're in the other's range.
It seems they both hope to counterattack
after the other strikes first.
Pardon me.
Poseidon isn't hoping for anything at all.
Poseidon will simply crush any bug
that enters his range.
That is all.
He's drenched in sweat
just standing there.
This guy's never going to win.
He's exhausted just keeping his distance.
That Kojiro Sasaki
is as much a loser as he ever was.
I see. That human
is devising numerous ways
in which to attack Poseidon.
In his head, you know.
What? You didn't notice?
Oh, his head…
I knew that right from the start!
Yes, in his head.
I knew that!
I totally knew that!
That's no good either.
No one knew that in the brief moments
since the bout started,
Kojiro Sasaki had
already been killed 18 times.
Dammit.
No matter how I attack him, I die.
Poseidon is far too powerful.
Yes. I wonder if there is even a way.
Kojiro is already
growing wary of attacking.
That Poseidon truly is the most fearsome
of the 12 gods of Olympus.
"The 12 gods," you say?
This is a good chance
for me to tell you about this, Göll.
About what?
Originally, like us Valkyrie,
there were 13 gods in Olympus.
What? There were 13 gods? What happened?
One of the 13 gods of Olympus…
was killed by Poseidon.
You're kidding! A god killed a god?
I've never heard of that! Who was killed?
The name of that god was…
Adamas.
What? Adamas?
Isn't that Zeus' final form?
No. It was one of the gods
born of the ruler of the cosmos, Cronus.
It is the name of the older brother
of Zeus and Poseidon.
Adamas.
In time immemorial…
That brat is the greatest god?
He's the youngest son!
I won't stand for it!
This is totally unacceptable!
After Zeus and the other gods of Olympus
overthrew the Titans at Titanomachy,
upset that the youngest son inherited
the position of the greatest god,
the second eldest son, Adamas, rebelled.
He freed the Titans and the Gigantes
who had been imprisoned in Tartarus,
bent the most terrifying beast
in heaven, Typhon, to his will,
and marched forth with his army.
POSEIDON'S PALACE
The time has come!
Already, the gods of heaven,
the 49 gods who backed Zeus,
are on my side!
And that's not all!
Several of the 13 gods of Olympus,
including Hermes,
have promised to switch to my side!
Now there's just you, Poseidon!
If you ally yourself with me,
we'll have Zeus' neck.
No older brother serves
his younger siblings.
Isn't that right?
You'll assist me, your older brother,
won't you, Poseidon?
What a pathetic older brother you are.
Sorry, but you're a little
far away, Poseidon.
What the fuck did you just say?
What did you say?
I may have misheard you.
Say it clearly…
one more time.
As if Zeus wasn't bad enough.
You're the same, dammit!
You little pricks think nothing of me,
your older brother!
Look me in the eye!
I am your older brother!
Show me some fucking respect!
Gods don't gather armies.
Gods don't plot schemes.
Gods don't rely on one another.
That is what gods are.
We are perfect beings from the very start.
However,
you have defiled all those things.
You fucking bastard!
How dare you ridicule me,
your older brother!
Don't…
Don't belittle me!
Always…
He's always been like that!
Not once…
Never…
Not a single time
did he ever look me in the eye!
Look me in the eye!
The one moment in his entire life
when Poseidon looked him in the eye,
his life ended.
Posei…
There was one who wasn't a god
among the 13 gods of Olympus.
Isn't that right, Hermes?
I guess he spotted me.
Indeed.
After that day,
the history of the gods was rewritten
so that there were originally
only 12 gods of Olympus ever.
I remember that now.
When that Adamas rebelled,
there were rumors
that one of us 12 was a traitor.
That was me.
What? Are you insane?
There could have been a fight
that split the heavens!
I thought
that would be rather interesting.
Yes! Let's do it!
War!
Let's have a war!
War!
Zeus was also looking forward to it.
Unbelievable.
I'll never understand you.
You know, it's hard to believe
that mighty warrior, Adamas,
was slain with a single strike.
That's not what makes Poseidon
so terrifying.
When Poseidon said
Adamas never even existed,
that is how it became so.
Nobody objected.
No objections would be allowed.
That is what makes him terrifying.
Yes, you're right.
That is why he is
more godlike than any of the rest of us.
It seems this god doesn't even look at me.
Well then, what to do?
What?
Okay now…
I sure don't want to die.
