| Keito | “Discipline yourself, you must not stray from the path of righteousness! The wisdom of Manjushri1 is our strength!” | 02:55 |
| Ibara | “Survey the tides of battle and make the best move! Complete victory is in our grasp!” | 03:00 |
| Keito | Those illogical acts of yours are vulgar Those double-faced techniques of yours will be exposed2 A book burning of your driveling revolution on societal norms Today, that art of fast-talk3 will be burnt at the stake! | 03:05 |
| Ibara | Quite the lecture, game on What tired enlightenment Language as gaudy as that reeks of mold! That blue cheese4 of yours has passed its expiration date. Even if you’re decomposed, you’re as young and novice as a newborn calf, hm? | 03:10 |
| Keito | You’re diseased with careless frivolity I'm lecturing a greenhorn as uselessly as preaching Buddha to an audience of rabbits That fast-talk of yours is the gift of a shapeshifter5 How extremely incorrigible6, the way you spend it all away | 03:17 |
| Ibara | To get good at using a caught-off guard to your advantage Having a sense of speed is an absolute must Charge! Invade! Conquer!7 This match is mine! I’m a time and cost-effective sniper8 | 03:24 |
Translation Notes
- ↑ Manjushri is a male bodhisattva that holds a flaming sword in his right hand, symbolizing wisdom that cuts through ignorance and duality, and a lotus in his left hand, symbolizing his ultimate realization through the blossoming of wisdom.
- ↑ "To cry wine and sell vinegar"; to use a good cause as a cover for doing something bad
- ↑ I translated 詭弁術 (sophistry; reasoning that seems plausible on a superficial level but is actually unsound) as "fast talk", to go with Ibara's theme of being time and cost effective.
- ↑ This felt like both a pun on the moldiness of maintaining public order (tired mores), and the cheesiness of such a virtuous belief.
- ↑ Keito says "Nue" here. The nue is said to bring bad luck, as well as have the ability of shape-shifting.
- ↑ Keito's catchphrase 度し難い (doshigatai)
- ↑ Ibara's catchphrase 突撃! 侵略! 制覇! (totsugeki! shinryaku! seiha!).
- ↑ コスパ (cospa; cost-effective) and タイパ (taipa; time-effective) are business principles; as you might guess, it's about being effective with your cost and your time.
