Seiya and his companions began
the decisive fight with Phoenix.
Cygnus resisted the Demonic Fist skillfully,
and got the upper hand.
But Phoenix's hateful spirit
couldn't be broken by the Demonic Fist,
and retaliated with his deadly Phoenix Flaming Wings.
But, Seiya
was protected by the Gold Cloth.
Supported by his friends' Cosmos,
Had Ikki on the ropes...
[ Revealed! The enigma of Ikki ]
Ikki
What really happened to you on Death Queen lsland?
It's a hell on Earth.
A hell on Earth?
You wouldn't understand...
Ikki
Let go!
Ikki
You wouldn't understand...
Catch, Seiya
Phoenix Flaming Wings!
Pegasus Meteor Fist!
Ikki
Ikki ... Brother!
Seiya, I've lost.
Ikki, what really happened?
What changed you like this?
Brother, Shun... Shun
I hate...I hate... I hate, Ikki!
Brother
I hate everything!
Hell..., it's like something out of hell...
Ikki, how long have you been on Death Queen lsland?
4 years...
4 years, and you still don't get it?
What makes you stronger?
It seems that you still don't understand
It's hatred.
The hate to defeat the enemy
These Japanese habits of yours
will interfere with your growth.
Don't look at me as a man.
We give up kindness and mercy when we fight.
We only think about detroying our enemies!
Get it, Ikki?
Thank you for the lesson.
I told you that sort of nonsense doesn't matter!
All that matters is that you have a heart full of hate!
Otherwise you'll never become stronger...
And I won't be able to give
the Phoenix Cloth to you.
I must get the Phoenix Cloth.
Then I'll return to Japan.
Shun, keep yourself strong.
Brother
Shun... Shun...
Shun...
Esmeralda? Is that you?
How are you, Ikki?
You thought I was your brother?
Other than your hair color and the fact that you're a girl
You're a lot like him.
You're seriously wounded.
If you keep this up, it will kill you eventually!
No, I won't die.
No matter what happens
I'll return to Japan with the Phoenix Cloth.
But father's training is too harsh.
No, in order to become a Saint
I will bear all suffering
So, Esmeralda
You'd best not come here.
If he catches you here, your Father will...
It doesn't matter, don't worry about me.
Not long before you came to this island
Father changed completely.
It was being called to go to the Sanctuary
that changed him so much.
The Sanctuary?
Your father is strict with
me for my own good.
I see.
Does it hurt?
Have a little patience.
Thank you, Esmeralda
Ikki, it's the last day today
If you can't defeat me today,
you obviously aren't cut out to be a Saint.
Do you understand?
You either defeat me now,
or die here.
It's up to you.
Die, Ikki!
Hate, Ikki
Your hatred will enable you
to defeat the enemy.
Give up all mercy.
Hate your parents who gave you up.
Hate the Graude Foundation that sent you.
Hate your brother who should have had to come instead.
Hate, hate!
Hate everything in the world!
And hate me, too!
Ikki
That's it!
Fool, why did you stop?
Don't you realize this
weakness will kill you!?!?
Fool.
Ikki
Esmeralda...
Ikki
Esmeralda
Ikki, please forgive Father
What're you saying? Don't talk like that!
Cheer up, Esmeralda.
Ikki, soon you....
You'll become a Phoenix and ascend to the heavens.
Esmeralda!
Become a Phoenix...
Esmeralda! Esmeralda!
Esmeralda...
Esmeralda! Esmeralda!
Fool, leave her be.
Isn't Esmeralda... your only daughter?
So what if she was?
It's time to give up mercy.
And Ikki, the person who killed Esmeralda is you
What?
You failed to kill the enemy
It's you who killed Esmeralda
You've gone too far! You're a demon!
A hateful demon!
An eye for an eye...
That is...
Behind Ikki!...
He's become Phoenix!
That's it, Ikki.
This is hate
The old Ikki flows away from you with the tears
You who are reborn as the Phoenix Saint
should never cry again.
I killed my teacher
I gave up all I had
and was reborn as the incarnation of hate.
I'm in charge of Death Queen Island now
But I've lost all I had...
Don't you still have Shun?
And we're also with you
Right, Ikki, you're Phoenix
the true Immortal Bird.
Brother
Finish me off.
The Gold Cloth is complete now
Brother
Ikki, let's start over.
You're too childish Seiya.
Don't believe that the battle ends with my defeat.
What did you say?
Sanctuary has...
Look out!
Seiya
The Gold Cloth!
Seiya!
Ikki, are they Dark Saints?
Impossible
I'm the only Dark Saint left.
Then...
Who's trying to steal the Gold Cloth again?
Whoever it is, we'll get it back from them!
Watch out!
Brother!
Grab on!
Shun... Brother!...
Hurry, grab it!
Brother!
Brother, please forgive me.
You went to Death Queen Island in my place.
Oooo, bad luck.
Do you know what Death Queen Island is like?
It's hell.
It's an island on the equator in the south Pacific.
It's very hot there.
It's almost as hot as hell.
No children who have been sent there before
have returned as a Saint.
No, although some at least survived
they were never the same...
I... I...
Sounds interesting. I'll go instead.
Ikki, even if he is your brother
you can't just...
It's none of your business, besides
It doesn't matter who goes where
so long as the Cloth is brought back, right?
Brother, but...
Don't worry, no matter what happens
I will return to Japan.
Listen, Shun.
Though you'll be alone
you mustn't be discouraged.
Shun, let me die.
I'm a traitor.
Brother!
Shun....
Let go! Let go!
No, I won't!
Shun, let go, or you'll fall too!
No matter what you say, I can't do that!
I won't let go!
Shun...
Brother
Shun
Brother
You're truly my brother...
and nothing can change that!
Brother! Shun
Damn
All that work, and the Gold Cloth is stolen again...
Damn
Brother!
Brother, don't strain yourself!
"Where's Ikki?" "He's fine."
Shun, don't just stand there!...
It's snowing?
How about that, Cygnus?
There's a good omen for you.
Is it snowing?
Esmeralda, I really wish you
this pure white snow...pure like your soul...
Snow...
Bury my blood-red past in your pure whiteness.
Fools.
Surely you can handle a mere four opponents.
The Cloth is a sacred Relic of Greece!
It'll be polluted if the likes of you so much as touch it!
What?
Don't fool around with them.
Have you got the Gold Cloth?
My Lord Docrates, We've got everything but the Helmet.
Docrates?
Docrates? Oh, no....
Is that guy Docrates?
Seiya, do you know him?
I heard a legend
when I was in Sanctuary
What was it?
Among countless Saints
He's the biggest and
strongest there ever was!
He's just some twit.
Let me show you my power!
Seiya, be careful!
Ikki
Brother
The Heracles Tornado Fist
is incredibly powerful! Run!
The Heracles Tornado Fist?
Take this!
That IS powerful!
Phoenix, where's the helmet? Where?
I don't know.
What?! What do you mean you don't know?
Seiya, run for it!
Phoenix, you bastard!
If I bring the rest of the Gold Cloth,
and the heads of these Saints
back to Sanctuary
Ares will be pleased.
I'll kill you all!
Phoenix Flaming Wings!
Brother! Brother!
Shun, there's no time!
I believed we'd be together again...
Shun!
Brother!
Ikki, watch over the helmet.
We've got to get the rest of the Cloth back to go with it.
Brother, I'll make you proud.
Ikki, rest in peace
Hyoga, that's...
Mother, please protect Ikki.
Looks like we're back where we started...
Kiki, is that you?
Ikki, watch over us...
