RAYEARTH

MAGIC KNIGHT

The color of the ocean is shifting to red.

I'm free falling.

I want to be carried off by the wind as I am.

I've always tried to overcome hurdles...

...with my fighting spirit, but...

...who's to be blamed for my failure to do my best ?

Having the infinite future in mind.

Embracing the dream that I will not surrender.

I will hold the unfading map of my heart to the light.

Please help.

Princess Emeraude

Please save this world...

...Legendary Magic Knights.

Magic Knights,

Tokyo 1994

Choosing Tokyo Tower for the field trip ?!

Our school is definitely strange !

Yeah, really, we aren't elementary students anymore.

Don't you think so too, Hikaru ?

Shidou Hikaru

It's so high here !~~It's awesome !

I'm so glad they brought us here for the field trip !~~Aren't you ?

She's happy...

What's wrong, Hikaru ?!

The binoculars' time ran out.

Money...Money...

Please, use these coins, okay ?

I've been enjoying watching you enjoy yourself.

Hououji Fuu

So, please take them.

Did you see that ? She's wearing the uniform of a famous private school !

You mean the school that's famous for being so competitive ?

I'm going to go thank her.

She's so small that she can't get through.

Aren't they students of a famous girls' junior high school patronized by rich girls ?

The school only rich girls, like daughters of politicians go.

You're right.

Is today the official day for famous schools to visit Tokyo Tower ?

Look at her, she's so beautiful !

Ryuuzaki Umi

She looks like a model !

Please save the world of Cefiro...

...Legendary Magic Knights !

What's this ?!

It looks like a huge flying fish.

What's going on ?

Where are we ?!

With the last of her power, she summoned the Legendary Magic Knights from the other world.

Adjutant Inova

I never imagined the legend would become reality.

What are you worried about ?

A legend is simply a legend. It's not real.

Those children are too young to save Princess Emeraude, much less become Magic Knights.

Of course.

Priest Zagato

However, even if it is only a legend, I don't think we should ignore them.

Of course, My Lord.

Ouch.

What kind of place is this ? What happened ?

It's certainly not Tokyo.

I can see that !

This isn't Tokyo.

While we were on that flying fish...

...I saw a mountain floating in the sky and a volcano in the distance.

I have an important fencing competition next week !

What're we gonna do ?!

I know ! Let's introduce ourselves !

Introduce ourselves ?

How can you say such a thing, in an emergency like this ?

Why not ? I think it's a great idea.

Hey !

It seems like we're the only ones who were transported from Tokyo Tower.

Whatever we do, we should cooperate and help each other.

That's why we need to start with introducing ourselves.

Okay, fine.

I'm Ryuuzaki Umi, grade 8.

I'm Hououji Fuu, also in grade 8.

I'm Shidou Hikaru, 14 years old, grade 8.

You're the same age as me ?

I thought you were an elementary student.

I'm sorry, but I thought so too.

You don't look any older than 11.

Hey, run ! Get away from there !

It's all right. This guy's harmless.

Who cares ?!~~We're having a major crisis here.

Hey, please take us back to Tokyo.

You can do it ! You brought us here, didn't you ?

Spirit beast, disappear !

You can't go back anymore.

Who are you...?

I'm Master Clef.

Master Clef

I'm here to guide you.

You can't go back to your world...

...until you save our world, Cefiro.

The Legendary Magic Knights have been summoned.

What ? Magic Knights ?

What does this mean ?

How impressive of Princess Emeraude.

She can use such power, even while in captivity.

Are there three of them, as the legend says ?

Are they going to awaken the Mashin ?

Quiet. Lord Zagato is speaking.

The ones summoned from the other world are mere children.

They will not be able to awaken the Mashin.

However, they are with Master Clef at this time.

You mean that annoying man ?

What a nuisance.

Alcione.

Yes !

We should take care of this before it becomes a problem.

Sorceress Alcione

As you wish.

This world is called Cefiro.

Princess Emeraude summoned you here to become Magic Knights, and save Cefiro.

How can you talk so big ? Aren't you younger than us ?

Release me ! Quit fooling around !

Honestly...

...what was Princess Emeraude thinking, summoning these children ?

Umi, behind you !

Lightning...

...Strike !

Awesome !

Cefiro was not like this when Princess Emeraude was with us.

Humans, fairies and beasts lived together in harmony.

But, Cefiro changed drastically when Priest Zagato captured Princess Emeraude.

Cefiro has become a world of chaos and disorder, where monsters wander.

Only the Magic Knights can save Cefiro now.

And you are those Magic Knights.

Magic Knights !

I admit that's a horrible story.

But, it has nothing to do with us.

This country's problems should be solved by the people who live here.

The people of Cefiro can do nothing.

If we could, I wouldn't be asking you.

Many magic users and fighters have fought Zagato to save the Princess...

...but he defeated them all.

I'll do it !~~I'll become a Magic Knight and save Cefiro !

Wait a second. Are you sure about making such a big decision so quickly ?

I can't leave these people in such a fix !

Won't you say something ?!

Tell her to stop thinking such stupid things.

You have no choice.

You cannot return home, until you become Magic Knights and save Cefiro.

Stop joking around !

I have an important fencing tournament in a week !

Princess Emeraude is the ``Pillar'' of this world.

Princess Emeraude supports Cefiro's peace and order through her constant prayers.

In Cefiro, one's will is the greatest power.

A believing heart is the true power in Cefiro.

A believing heart.

The Princess Emeraude's will has brought you to this world.

Until you honor her wish, you cannot go back to your world.

It is her desire that you save Cefiro.

To fulfill her wish, you must become Magic Knights, and awaken the Mashin.

``Mashin ?''

Can any of you use magic ?

If we could, we would've gone back to Tokyo by now.

You can't use magic...?

I will need to do something about your clothes, too.

Receive Magic !

What's this ?

I tried to give you some magic, but it seems like the magic has chosen you.

I can use magic ?!

If you chant a spell, yes. Do exactly as I do.

What's that, some kind of children's dance ?

Close your eyes.

Do you feel it ?

Can you feel the power inside of you ? The power you didn't have before ?

I feel it.

I feel a burning sensation deep in my heart.

Strange words are forming in my mind.

That's it. That's your magic.

What's going on ?

It looks like Zagato has sent one of his minions.

Spirit Beast Appear !

Get on, quick !

What about you ?

I'll distract them.

But...!

Don't worry ! Just go !

I want to stay and fight with you !

If you really want to help me, then become Magic Knights quickly, and save Cefiro !

Clef !

Go west !

You'll meet Presea in the Forest of Silence...

...and find your weapons and Mokona there !

Long time no see, Master Clef.

My former student, conspiring with Zagato...

I'm disappointed in you, Alcione.

I'm grateful to you, Master.

You taught me such wonderful magic.
