Episode 20 Soul Mata Cemetery -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Explosion Both Yoh and Ren falling back Manta: Ah! Shilva Wing:Yoh's oversoul has broken down again. Shilva Shield:This is the 6th time for Yoh but only a 3rd time for Ren. Shilva Tail:But Ren's mind is too occupied. Shilva Rod:Who's in better situation now? Shilva Horn: Moo. Shilva: In Yoh's case, the amount of Furyoku he uses on one Oversoul is small. On the other hand, Ren puts a large amount of Furyoku into one Oversoul. For that reason, when you're talking about Furyoku, conditions are the same. Shilva Wing: Does this mean that Yoh who has more relaxation in his mind has more of an advantage? Ren: I'm the one who's going to win. Yoh: I can't lose either. Because if I lose, I won't be able to become Shaman King. Ren: I have to win. I can't move forward unless I defeat you. *If I can't win this, there is no way I can beat that guy. For that reason, I can't lose!* Hakuoh! Manta: A horse? Ren: My Hakuoh is trained especially to become a Shaman Horse. I will put the spirit of Bason's horse in him. Come, Kokutoh! Hyoi Gattai in Hakuoh! Bason! Big Oversoul! Shilva Wing: You're kidding me. Shilva Rod: It's uncomparable. Shilva Shield: He still saved that kind of Oversoul in him? Man:What did you mean by "Ren will lose?" Jun: It's because...his opponent is Yoh Asakura. Man:I don't understand. Ren has more Furyoku. There's no way he can beat Ren. Jun: It should've been like that when I fought him. When I fought Yoh Asakura, I had a definite confidence in Pilong. But I was defeated. By the special power he has. He pulled out the sad feeling that was pressed down in the bottom of his heart to the person who became Tao family's tool, Pailong.Then I felt it. Yoh Asakura's warm power. That's the power Ren, who only knows how to destroy things, doesn't have. The possible reason why Ren is so particular about Yoh Asakura is that he's feeling the total opposite power in Yoh Asakura just like light and shadow. Ren tried to kill his sadness by destroying everything. But by meeting Yoh Asakura, he felt Yoh's unlimited warm power. Ren wants his frozen heart to be shined by the light of Yoh Asakura. To bring back who he once was. Man (signing): Papa is sad. (zombies appearing behind Jun) Jun: Ah! Pailong! Pailong: Yeah. Pailong attacking He send Pailong flying June: Pailong. zombie knocking her out Father: Bring her. (signing again) Ren: Play time is over. Yoh: I wanted to end it as well. I'm getting tired and hungry. Ren: For how much longer are you going to insult me? No matter who it is, no one can dodge my super real ability. Yoh: Yeah, looks like I can't dodge like I used to be able to. Even scraping it a little can cause a big damage. Right, Amidamaru? Then all I can do is to receive it all face to face. Manta: Receive it all? Shilva Wing: Is he still only half awake or something? Shilva Rod: That's just impossible. There's too much difference between the sizes of the Oversouls. Ren (laughing): Recieve it all? My super real ability? (chuckling) That's impossible. Yoh: I wouldn't do it if it's impossible. Ren: What do you mean? Yoh: In Yomi's hole, I learned that being myself at all times is very important. In that darkness, if I lost being myself, I wouldn't have came back safely. The reason I lost to Faust is because I tried things that I'm not capable of. Trying things that I am not capable of makes me feel that I am not myself. It's really scary to lose myself. You don't know what you should and you shouldn't do. I am not going to do things that I'm not capable of. That's why what I'm going to do now is not impossible. Manta: That's...! Shilva: Looks like he learned it from this fight. They're both depending on the Oversouls that they both put all of their Furyoku in. This match will be over after the next blow. Ren: It's not impossible? My super real ability... don't get carried away!! Destroy! Perfect Chuuka-Zanimai!! Yoh countering with his supersoul Shilva Shield: Both Oversouls are almost disappearing. Shilva Wing: This match.... the winner is? Manta: Ren's Oversoul has disappeared? Ren: I knew it from the beginning. Since the day when I first met him... I can only destroy things with force. But he is wind... no one can cut or destroy wind. It rather makes me feel good when my Furyoku is totally gone. I feel lighter. Yoh Asakura, (turning to face Yoh) it's mortifying, but you're the winner. Everyone surprised Yoh: Wait a minute Ren. My Furyoku ran out a while ago as well. Ren: Ah. Ah?! Yoh: What am I going to do? If I lose, Anna will beat the shit out of me. Ren: What the hell is that? What do you mean by "I ran out of Furyoku as well?!!" We can't find out who won then! Yoh: You too. Why didn't you watch more carefully? I'm the one who's going to be punished by Anna if I lose! How can you do this to me?! Ren: That's none of my business! Both glaring at each other Yoh: Oh yeah! If Anna punishes me, you're coming with me. (pointing at Ren) Ren: Stop talking nonsense! Why do I have to get punished as well? Yoh: Because you were facing behind, weren't watching and you were showing off! Ren: You did the same too, bastard! Shilva: Don't worry. I was watching the match carefully. Both: Then come over here already! Shilva taken aback Ren: And...? Yoh: Who is it? Shilva: You both ran out of Furyoku at completely the same time. And this match end in a draw. Yoh: A draw? Ren: Ah? Hey bastard! What do you mean by a draw? This match decides who passes the preliminary! Shilva: There's no need to worry about it. Great Spirit has already given the decision. Congratulations. You both passed the preliminary. Manta: Yay!! Yoh letting out a breath Ren: Hey wait, why are you happy? Yoh: Aren't you happy, Ren? Now you don't have to be punished by Anna. Ren: Like I said before, that has nothing to do with me. Shilva Wing: Don't you think this is strange, Shilva? I mean, don't you have to win twice in order to pass the preliminary? Shilva Shield: But Yoh won once, lost once, and drew once. Yoh: It's time for me to eat now. You come too, Ren. Ren: Why me? Shilva: It's all decided by the Great Spirit. Yoh: Then you're coming right? It's decided! Let's go home. Ren: Why do I have to go home with you? Yoh: Who cares? Hurry up. Come to groceries with me as well. Ren: Why!? -Night- Asakura Resident Horo Horo: Cheers! Everyone: Cheers! Horo Horo: Such a matter for congratulations. It's a miracle for a loose guy like you to pass the preliminary. Yoh: It really is a miracle. The fact that you lost to me an passed the preliminary. Both: Ah ha ha ha... Horo Horo: Leave me alone! Tamao: It really is a good thing to pass the preliminary together. Pirika: Yeah. Even though it is already decided that onii-chan is the one who's going to become Shaman King. Anna: Already decided? Pirika: Yep. It's already decided. Anna: This girl makes me laugh. Pirika: Hmph. Tamao: Your faces aren't smiling... Horo Horo: And when will the second preliminary start? Yoh: Aren't you more worried about what kind of battles there will be? Horo Horo: Yeah. Now that you mentioned it, yeah. And? Yoh: ? Horo Horo: Like you said, what kind of battles will be there? Yoh: How would I know? Horo Horo: What do you mean? You sounded like you knew. Ren: You guys are so noisy. Horo Horo: What? Ren: Your face is kind of like what stupid people have. Horo Horo: What did you just say?! Um...(doesn't know his name) Ren: It's Tao Ren. (Tao is the last name) Remember it at once. Horo Horo: Ohh! That's right. Tao Ren, Tao Ren. Tao Ren! (Means s/he doesn't fall) You Tao Reru. Ren: Are you trying to pick a fight? Horo Horo: Sounds good to me. Manta: Now now. (clinching onto Horo Horo's leg) Horo Horo: What are you doing, Manta? Yoh: We are friends after all. (holding onto Ren from behind) Ren: I don't remembaer becoming friends with you bastards. Let go. Yoh: I refuse. Ren: I'm telling you to let go! (holding onto Yoh's leg and spinning him around and around) Bason: I've never seen Bocchama (young master) that happy. Amidamaru: He's happy?! Bason: You can't see it. Ren-Bocchama's happy feelings. The young master was always alone. He kept killing his feelings and tolerated it. But now he has friends who he fought with what he had. Friends are wonderful things. Amidamaru: Indeed. Horo Horo: Well, it is a matter for congratulations for passing the preliminary. Now! Let's go wild tonight! Everyone (except Anna of course): Yeah! Anna: You better pay for what you eat and drink. Horo Horo tearing Pirika: Onii-chan... (Pirika shaking with annoyance) Tamao: Here, Yoh-sama. Yoh: Oh, thanks. (drinking the juice) Tamao: umm.. ummm... Yoh: Huh? Tamao: Congratulations! (shy, turning red, then running away) Yoh: Hey... Ren and Manta pretending they did not see the incident -Hot Spring- Ren: Why do I have to go in with you guys? Manta: Onsen (hot springs) is onsen because everyone goes in together Yoh: Really? I didn't know that. Horo Horo: Huh? Are you, by any chance, embarassed? Ren looking away All smiling evilly at Ren Ren: What the hell, you bastards?! All: Hehehe... Ren: AHH...!! (getting stripped by the guys) Manta narration: It was a strange night. Even though they were having a fierce fight a minute ago, by spending a small amount of time together, we got to know each other bit by bit. It was a night where it makes me feel wonderful. -Late Night- Everyone asleep, Horo Horo snoring loudly Ren thinking/reflecting: *Why is everyone dead?* *Why did you kill everyone?* *Why are humans so dirty?* *No one can help it.* *No, someone might be able to help it.* (looking at Yoh) -Later- Ren ready to leave, horse snorting Yoh: You're going home already? You could stay longer, you know? Ren: I have something that I have to do. Yoh: I see. Ren: I will beat you some day with my mental toughness that is stronger than yours. Yoh: Yeah. (Ren trotting away on the horse) Yoh going upstairs Anna leaning on the railing Yoh: What's wrong? Anna: I have something that I forgot to say. Yoh: Huh? Anna: Congratulations for passing the preliminary. Yoh smiling: Thank you. Anna: That's all. Good night. Yoh: Yeah. -On A Train- Bason: Can you please tell me now? What's on your mind? Ren: Hey, Bason. Humans are really warm hearted. I hated all the humans that existed in this world. That's the reason why I wanted to become Shaman King. But after meeting Asakura Yoh for the first time, I realized that was wrong. Humans aren't as dirty as I thought they were. It's not the humans who are dirty, it's who has a cold heart and doesn't know how warm hearted humans are. Bason: Bocchama... Ren: I was thinking about it for a long time. What can I do as a shaman? And decided to change the world by becoming Shaman King. That I want to change the world where hatred creates hatred. To do that, I have to defeat my father. That man who is the source of all of my hatred, En Tao that is. -Home- Ren: Hmph. Bason, let's shoot through them. (Tao family's Kyonshii army) Bason, Hyoui Gattai in Bason-Tou. Oversoul, super real ability mode. *Target, forward, the Kyonshii army.* Bason, launch! Wait for me, Father. I'll get there right now. Ren defeating them all Ren going inside the gates En: Welcom back, Ren. Ren: *Where in the world did he come from?* En: You became more sturdy. I want to pat your head. Haha... -Asakura Resident- Everyone just about to eat breakfast Manta: What was that just now? Horo Horo: My tendow shrunk for a bit. Yoh: Ren? Bason appearing at the door Bason: Yoh-sama! Please, please rescue Ren-bocchama. Yoh: Ah.. (a sweat drop running down) ~End of Episode 20~
