Material in [ ] is either for informative purposes or additional/alternative text.

Count: It's over…

Puck: Ha…

Puck: Guts!!

Puck: Oi, what's wrong!?

Puck: It ends at this!? [Is this how it's going to end!?]

Puck: It's not true, is it!?

Puck: Why aren't you telling me that's absolutely wrong!? [Had problems here. The 'why aren't you telling me' part is fine, it's the bits after that I am worried about. 'Sanzan', is that a term of reference per chance (eg arsehole, bastard etc)?]

Puck: Turn this awful man into moss!! [Problems here as well. Puck does refer to moss and a man but, once again, I'm unsure about the operation of 'sanzan' upon the statement. It's also questionable whether the person referred to is the Count. Guts is, after all, in a pretty mossy position (on a rock)!]

Puck: Wake up, you idiot--!

Puck: Wake…!!

Puck: ……W

Count: Even if you train well, this is the limitation of the weak body of man……

Count: Miserable things. [The adjective in question is 'hahanai'. My dictionary indicates that it should be read as meaning vain, untimely, transient, short-lived, momentary, vain, fickle, miserable, empty, or ephemeral.]

Count: Humans………

Puck: …Wha

Puck: What's that.

Puck: What (the fuck) did you say. [lit: What's that, what's that.]

Puck: Don't you brag-----!!

Puck: Baldie!!! [alt: Nude-nut!!!]

Puck: B…Because you………!

Puck: You were also a miserable human!!

Count: What's that…

Puck: B…

Puck: But it's true!!

Puck: I heard it from Theresia!! You've been unhinged since the time of your wife's death 7 years ago!! [Re the unhinged part, my dictionary indicates that 'ikereru' can be read as frivilous, flippant or touched (as in slightly crazy).]

Puck: Y…

Puck: You

Puck: You obtained that power to take revenge on the heretics!? [The power to assume the Count's current form, I presume.]

Puck: …But

Puck: That wasn't the only reason.

Puck: If you wanted revenge, your power alone should have been enough.

Puck: The fact is, you……

Puck: You did it to escape from the pain within your own heart!!

Puck: In order to escape from yourself…!!

Puck: You gave up your humanity!!

Puck: Isn't that why you're no longer a miserable human!!

Count: Ku ku ku…This is a surprise.

Count: I thought elves and the like were things no more intelligent than birds or squirrels, and… [alt: I thought elves and the like were things no more intelligent than birds or squirrels but…]

Count: that's why they were not very talkative. [alt: but by no means were they talkative.]

Puck: A squirrel?

[Puck (outside speech bubble): Mu.. [My dictionary indicates that 'muka' is 'to blow (one's nose)'. Considering the context, I'd guess that it here represents either a snort (of disgust/anger) or the letting off of steam.]]

Count: It was an amusing tale. Because of it, I'll not kill you. You'd best disappear. Go anywhere you please.

[Puck (outside speech bubble): Muka! [See comments on 'muka' above.]]

Puck: H…

Puck: Hmm!!

Puck: So, whenever you get tired of a sore spot you try and cover it up. Just like a human. [Educated guess alert.]

[Puck (outside speech bubble): Sa sa]

Puck: What! [Simple statement, but one that I am never the less unsure about. My dictionary indicates that 'nante' in this context should be read as 'How…!' or 'What…!'. I suppose it depends on whether Puck is 'talking' to the Count or Guts. If Guts, the implication may be 'What now' or 'How 'bout it'. If the Count, the implication is likely 'What (did I do)'.]

Puck: Pi.

Count: That's!!

Puck: Beherit!!

Count: Ku…ku ku ku…

Count: I no longer need to go to the trouble of (expressly) searching for it.

Puck: U---m

Puck: Ni ni ni… [Presume this is laughter under the pressure of exertion - he's lifting the Beherit.]

Count: You (bastard)……

Puck: Wh Wh Wh Who's handing it over

Puck: to you!!

[Puck (outside speech bubble): Doki Doki. Doki.. [The sound of his heart racing.]]

Puck: Kya--!! Kya--!! Kya--!!

Count: Bug!! [lit: Small insect!!]

Puck: Ukya!!

Puck: He..he he he.

Puck: If I'm running away, my way is to go up. ???? ! [I'm not sure how to translate 'ta-ko'. According to my dictionary, the term could be used to signify a kite, an octopus or a callus!]

Puck: That's right…

Puck: When something is flying, as I am, there's nothing you…!!

Count: Fool, you're naught but an elf!! If you wish to die that badly, I'll do as you desire!!

Theresia: Puck!!

Theresia: …N

Theresia: Noooo..

Theresia: …Aa(h)…a(h)…

Theresia: …Nooo…

Puck: Theresia!?

Count: …Th…

Count: Theresia………?

Theresia: ……A(h)

Theresia: …Aa(h)…

Count: Theresiaaa…

Puck: Theresia…!!

Puck: [Not sure. And as I usually get these fragments completely wrong, I'll not hazard a guess.]

Puck: M…

Puck: My body won't move!!

Puck: …Aa(h)…

Puck: I'm going to be killed…

Count: …Y

Count: You…!!

Puck: …Gu…!!

Puck: …Y!

Puck: You-----Bastard!!

Puck: Fucking arsehole!! [alt: Fucking bastard!!]

Puck: You were only pretending to be dead---!! [May be more here.]

Puck: I really thought that you'd died.

Puck: [Not sure about this. It seems, in many respects to be a restatement of the questions that Puck was asking Guts whilst Guts was 'unconscious' - at the start of the chapter.]

Puck: …You

Puck: You're

Puck: Really not dead.

Count: Death hasn't come (yet) but ……… [Problems here as well. Took 'kutabari' to be death, and treated the 'zo' as distinct from 'konai'. This may not be correct, but I'm was unable to find any other approach for 'zokonai'.]

Puck: W W W Wait, Guts!? It's reckless!!

Puck: You'll die……

Puck: He's…

Puck: smiling……?

Guts: No, not good enough. At most you broke 2 or 3 bones……

Guts: To stop me, smash my head or crush my heart.

Guts: Just like you……

Guts: You fucking slug. [alt: Slugo.]

Count: I won't forgive you…!! [alt: I won't tolerate…!!]

Count: I won't forgive you, worm…!! [alt: I won't tolerate that, worm…!!]

Puck: Guts!!

Guts: Gubo…!!

Puck: What was he thinking!? The situation hasn't improved at all!!

Puck: He's going to be killed!!

Count: …Y… [alt: …You…]

Count: You…!! [alt: Bastard!!]

Count: Theresia………!!

Guts: Ku…!!

Guts: Ga(h)…

Guts: Gaaaa(h)

Puck: This is what he was aiming at…

Puck: He was counting on…taking Theresia hostage……!

Count: You…!!

Count: Youuu!! [The expression used here and immediately above is yet another insulting way of saying 'you'. 'Bastard' may be more appropriate.]

Count: Aaaa(h)

Guts: This is the limit

Guts: of a human being.

Guts: …Yes

Guts: they're miserable things.

Guts: Humans.

Count: Hiiiii

Theresia: …N

Theresia: Noooo

Puck: Theresia!!

Theresia: Noooo

Theresia: …u(h)…

Puck: St…Stop it!!

Puck: You're in front of that girl!!

Puck: That girl……Theresia. Whatever the crime, it's not her's (is it)!? [Not 100% sure about this.]

Puck: …Hya

Guts: Shut up………

Guts: If you get in the way

Guts: I'll kill you.

Guts: You must be proud, Count. [Not 100% sure about this. 'Hana ga takai' = proud.]

Guts: Your charming daughter will praise you for your proud figure. [alt: You'll receive worship from your charming daughter for your proud appearance.] [alt:Your charming daughter worships your proud/noble figure.] [Had problems here. The substance is correct, but I've had problems identifying exactly what Guts is getting at.]

Theresia: …A(h)!!

Count: P…

Count: Please Stop…!!

Guts: Stop?

Guts: I won't hold back. [alt: I won't stop; I won't desist.]

Guts: Until you've received ample praise!! [Struggled here as well.]

Guts: For your indestructible body!! [alt: Because you have an indestructible body!!] [AND struggled here.]

Guts: Amazing!!

Guts: You truly are a most extraordinary person!! [Guts literally refers to the Count as a transcendental person/being.]

Guts: You really can't die!!

Puck: W…Why take it this far…!? [alt: W…Why go that far…!?]

Theresia: U(h)…

Puck: Theresia.

Guts: …Ku

Guts: Ku ku …

Guts: Ha…

Guts: Ha ha ha ha…

Count: …No…

Count: I don't want to die…

Count: I don't want to die!!

Puck: Guts, that…!!

Puck: Beherit, it's……!?

Puck: Uwaaa(h).

Puck: W…

Puck: What in heaven's nameee!!

Guts: This is…!!

Guts: An other dimensional space!? [alt: A different dimensional space!?]

Count: …They approach…

Count: …They're here…

Puck: Guts……!!

Guts: Ga(h)…!!

CHAPTER 1 END

Theresia/Puck: Aa(h)…!!

Puck: That's God Hand…!?

Guts: …Griffith…………!!

Guts: Griffith!

Puck: Griffith………

Puck: Who's Griffith…?

Griffith: …Still…

Griffith: You were still crawling about such a place.

Guts: …W…

Guts: What's that……!?

Guts: W……Wait…!!

V: Person who was chosen from causality. [Causality = the law of cause and effect.] [I'm not sure about this. Both the law of causality and 'person who was chosen' are however mentioned.] [I do know this beings name, but at this point in the manga I probably shouldn't.]

V: This person's earnest desire to live opened the space.

V: (Consequently) We (have) assembled here.

Count: Head Angel, Void………! [This is a literal translation. I'm tempted to use 'arch-angel', but it's not really appropriate…is it!?]

Count: Please, my wish!! (It's) That man's life………!!

Count: My grudge against that man, please satisfy it!!

Void: We can't do that.

Count: W…Why!?

S: Your thoughts, which opened the space, were consistently of your attachment to life and your fear of death.

S: Not of your hatred for that man.

U: We descended in order to fulfil the most powerful desire of you who was chosen because of the law of causality.

Count: B……But this man, he's the Black Warrior!? He was killing all the apostles of God Hand (until he came here)……He must be your hated enemy!?

U: Enemy?

Griffith: A number of apostles were killed, but by no means would he be able to do the same thing to us.

Griffith: Black Warrior is it…?

Griffith: Your existence is beneath notice. [Griffith is looking right at Guts, so I've worked on the assumption that he is addressing Guts directly. If not so, a better translation here would be: 'His [or its] existence is beneath notice.']

Guts: Ga(h)…

Puck: Guts…!!

C&S: Oh

U: Magnificent!!

S: He can stand up with those injuries……

U: Interesting!!

S: (He has) Magnificent will power … and fighting spirit. [Re the 'fighting spirit' part, this is my take on the combination of 'a strife/a struggle' with 'heart/mind/core'.]

U: For God Hand…

U: (But) Particularly in response to Femto, the tremendous hatred (that he feels) is propping up his body.

U: At any rate, it's because we marked him with the brand, isn't it. [Had some problems with this.]

C: But…

C: I wonder how long he'll last?

Guts: My existence is beneath notice…

Guts: You make me laugh…

Guts: That my existence is beneath notice is thanks to you. You just stay like that… [The second sentence is questionable.]

Guts: Thanks to you, I'm keeping corpses company….!!

Guts: Thanks to you, I'm crawling about in the midst of bloody eruptions!! [Blood + a vomit = bloody eruptions!? 'Pools of blood' may be better!?]

Guts: You stay there and keep on posing as superman!! [alt (more lit): You keep on posing as the guy who's superhuman (up) there!!]

Guts: Griffith!!!

Griffith/Femto: …Yes

Griffith/Femto: You're nothing more than a sacrifice that's (still) crawling about.

Puck: What happened between those two?!

Puck: Guts!

Griffith/Femto: You are a fool.

Griffith/Femto: Don't you know that your seal reacts with our evil, causing your body to experience great pain?

Griffith/Femto: It only feels like a needle prick with small amounts of evil…

Griffith/Femto: But with larger amounts of evil, it responds with a pain that increases indefinitely.

Griffith/Femto: And if the evil becomes too great…

Griffith/Femto: …the pain will kill you!

Griffith/Femto: That's far enough.

Puck: Guts!

S: It's over…

Guts: Gaah!

U: Oh?!

Puck: Guts!

S: Splendid fighting spirit! But with that pain, he appears to have given up.

U: Awesome.

S: He's about to lose consciousness.

U: And also Count, his flesh is already tattered after the first fight.

S: I want that boy to be among us. He'd be wonderful.

C: But he can't be chosen because of the law of causality.

C: So he can't be among us.

C: Besides,

C: …he's finished.

Puck: Guts!

Griffith/Femto: I have taken care of your wish by accident, Count.

Count: I…

Count: I appreciate it…

Void: Enough of the sideshow!

Void: It's time to perform the ceremony!

Void: Count.

Void: Who will be sacrificed?

Count: It's gonna be the Black Swordsman.

U: Not good enough, Count.

Count: Wh…Why?

C: That man was offered for sacrifice before.

S: And also, that boy is just your enemy which we don't allow.

S: The sacrificial offering to the ceremony is not just a mere lump of flesh and blood.

S: He has to be very important and dear to your heart. And that person must be a part of your own body.

U: And since this is an offering to evil…

U: …it has been decided that he has to be one of your own and you have to cut him of personally.

C: Evil flows into the crack and will grow in its heart.

Puck: Part of your own body.

Puck: Oh no!

Count: Then.

Count: Then who?

Griffith/Femto: Cut your love asunder,

Griffith/Femto: Count.

Theresia: …N

Theresia: Noooo.

Count: P…Please wait…!!

Count: I...If it's another, then anybody…!! Her…… Only Theresia……!

S: That's right…

S: If it's not such a person it has no meaning, Count.

U: Don't be so distracted.

U: You should do as you did that time. [alt: You should act/behave in the same way as that time.]

Theresia: That time……?

U: My goodness.

U: You weren't told what your father did?

Count: Please wait!!

Count: To her…!!

Count: Not that……!! [Anything but (that)……!!]

U: Let me enlighten you.

Theresia: This is…?

U: I've opened a window into the past. [U more literally says here that he has opened a space-time (air)space. I'm unsure about the significance of 'choito', although it seems to imply that the space-time window only covers bits and pieces or a segment of the past. Either that or it refers to the duration that the window will be open.]

U: This is the Count of 7 years ago. He's extremely well turned out compared to now, isn't he.

U: And…

U: Look,

U: There's you and your mother.

Theresia: Mother-…

U: A beautiful and virtuous wife for a honest husband.

U: The sort of family depicted in pictures of happiness.

U: That's the way it looked!

Count: Stoppp.

U: At that time the faith of the false god was overrunning this country. The Count was also rushing about his territory subjugating the heretics. [alt: At that time, the faith of the false god was overrunning this country. The Count was also rushing about his territory in the subjugation of the heretics.]

U: Hence he was often away from the castle.

U: And that day

U: In order to heal his spirit, which was being gnawed at, and his body, which was exhausted by the long, gruesome subjugation of the heretic,

U: the Count flew back to his beloved wife and only daughter.

U: Please stop………!!

U: And at that time he came (back to).

[Count (outside speech bubble): Stoppp...]

U: It was an outlandish scene.

U: With a strange stench and a sea of flesh wriggling in a heap to the throes of passion.

U: A statue of a grotesque god possessing a towering goat's head in the middle.

U: And the figure of a woman in agony clinging in order to stay on that god. [alt: And the figure of a woman writhing in agony in order to hold on to that god.] [The gist of this is correct, although I'm unsure which is the better alternative for 'karamitsukimodaeru' - 'writhing in agony' or 'in agony clinging'. 'Agony' is, of course, used here in a 'Shakespearean' sense.]

U: Her face distorted with pleasure,

U: It was the figure of your beloved mother.

Theresia: …A lie.

Theresia: It's a lie!!

Count: Theresiaa!!

Puck: Theresia!!

U: The Count went into a blind rage!!

U: When he came out of it, in that place, a sea of blood and bodies had spread out in which not a thing stirred.

Theresia: Stop…

[Theresia (outside speech bubble): Stoppp]

U: That's right…

U: You couldn't do it. You couldn't tear off half of yourself…!! 

U: But the smile of that betrayer, who had exulted in victory seeing through you,

U: Drove you to the depths of despair.

U: You therefore decided to end your own life,

U: To escape from the despair.

U: ……But………

U: That despair once again……

U: (It) Was within the wheel of (the law of) causality. [alt: (It) Was with in the loop of causality; (It) Was within the wheel of karma.]

U: The wailing of (your/the) soul, which can not be relieved by the God of this world, opened the dimensional gate. ['The wailing of (your/the) soul opened the dimensional gate' part of this sentence is fine. I am, however, less than convinced by the remainder. The elements are fine, I'm just not sure whether I've put them together correctly. At any rate, the implication here seems to be that you can't save yourself from despair with/by the God of this world.]

U: You said……

Count: Are you gods? Or, are you messengers of the false god!? 

Count: Either way……rescue me from this pain!! If you can do that, I'll give you anything!!

U: And we made a promise.

S: We will give you a supernatural soul that'll never know sorrow or despair!! [S actually says something along the lines of "We're (doing you the favour of) considering a superhuman soul/spirit (for you) that will never know despair or sorrow!!"]

U: …some words… [lit: …A word…]

U: In exchange for some words!!

U: Yes…you certainly said it!!

U: "I offer this woman for sacrifice"!!

U?: You couldn't end it with your own hands, the life of the person you loved and hated the most!! (So) You agreed!! [You couldn't end it by your own hand, the life of the person you loved and hated the most!! (So) You submitted!!]

U?: In order to bury the weak human soul!!

U/Void?: In order to transcend humanity!!

C: You must heed the call to brand that person!! [Re 'the call', C literally says 'the desire' or 'the craving'.]

Theresia: A(h)…

Theresia: Aa(h)…

Puck: Theresia!!

Guts: Oi, Shrimp!!

Guts: Just my right arm will do……Fix it so that I can move it…

Guts: Hurry…

Guts: Do it right now!!

CHAPTER 2 END

G: Oi! Are you still alive?

G: Aa(h), Somehow……

G: You certainly…

G: have the luck of the Devil.

G: Here.

G: Martyrdom for the sake of a merciless deity (probably)…

G: It's a troubling matter.

G: In the present age, the lives of the majority of people are spent catering to the whims of a handful of nobles and royal families. [Not sure about this. G does, however, mention 'in the present age', 'the lives of the majority of people' and 'the convenience of a handful of the nobility and the royal families'.]

G: On the battlefield, an enlisted man is not even worth a silver coin.

G: Well…

G: I don't know that even the King has a satisfactory reason for living. [That is, satisfactory from G's point of view. Well, I think so at any rate!]

G: Everybody is merely entrusting their lives to a large stream.

G: …to a fellow who is known in one way or another as fate.

G: And everybody dies. [alt: And everybody dies and goes who knows where.]

G: Their lives spent.

G: Without even knowing who they were.

G: In this world, and having no connection with the social hierarchy established by man, there are those who were born as keys that set the world in motion. [alt: In this world, people, who were born as keys that move the world, exist, having no connection with the social hierarchy established by man.] [I'm sure that this could be framed better.]

G: It, the Universe's Golden Rule, established the true elite…

G: The people who possess the power of God!!

G: ……I want to know!!

G: Why I am on this world!!

G: [Not sure about this. 'What is possible by who………'?]

G: [Also unsure about this, due to the 'beku' following 'nani wo suru' and before 'sadamerareteirunoka'.]
G: …It's amazing………

G (now revealed as the pre-Femto Griffith): You're the first person that I've spoken to like this. [alt: I've never spoken to anyone else like before.]

Guts: At that time, that man was reflected in my eyes as a beautiful, noble and complete person. [Re 'complete', my dictionary indicates that 'zettaiteki' should be read as 'absolute'. A 'beautiful, noble and well-rounded person' may be more appropriate!?]

Void: Come now, decide!!

Void: Will you offer this girl as a sacrifice to evil, or not!?

Puck: Theresia………!!

Guts: What the hell are you doing!! You don't have all day!!

Puck: B…But…!!

Guts: If you don't get over here soon, this fellow will also be branded on your precious friend.

Guts: If you don't want that, fix this arm so that I can move it quickly!!

Guts: Your gift is all that you have!! [Re 'gift', I presume that Guts is here talking about Puck's ability to heal people as being the only 'weapon' in Puck's arsenal.]

Guts: If my existence is beneath notice…

Guts: If my existence is beneath notice…!!

U: What's wrong, Count!?

U: What's troubling you!?

Count: Theresia………

U or C: As it stands, before the hour is over your life's flame will be dead.

S: You are already one of our family. Even if you die, resting in peace in the underworld, and the like, will not be possible.

Femto: I advise you to look, Count.

Guts: A(h)…!!

Guts: Ga(h)!!

Guts: Guts!?

Puck: …What!?

Puck: Incredible…!! An enormous vortex of thought……!?

Puck: Evil of enormous proportions…

Puck: It's as if all the world's evil were gathered here!!

Count: Th…That can't be…!?

S: It's the passage, Count.

Femto: No more than a mere part, but…

Femto: this is…

Femto: Hell!!

Femto: Count, the undulation of your soul is close to pure evil.

Femto: If your flesh expires, your soul, captured in the evil, magnetic wave, will certainly fall down to Hell.

Femto: And, you will wander about that crucible of dark thought for all eternity.

Femto: Before long, maintaining your individuality will become an impossibility. [The gist of this is correct - I think! I am however unsure as to the effect of 'sura' in 'kotaisura'.]

Femto: You will become one undulation, melting in the sea of the darkside of the soul in order to let fall a drop (of water) into the water.

S: That is the fate of those who were related to evil (spirits). [alt: That is the fate of persons who were mixed up in evil].

Puck: Because a person was related to evil (spirits)… [alt: Because a person was mixed up in evil……]

Puck: Then……

Puck: Guts is……!?

Femto: Count.

Femto: 2 paths remain open to you.

Femto: To continue your existence with an evil spirit, or to continue living, reincarnated once more, with an evil spirit? [Had problems with this and Femto's 2 following statements.]

Femto: If your existence is not absorbed into the evil spirit…

Femto: We will send you back!!

C: Just some words… [lit: Just a word…]

C: If you say " I offer my daughter for sacrifice", all will be well!!

U: Thereafter the brand will be set upon your daughter.

S: That girl will become an evil thing.

Theresia: …A(h)…

Theresia: A(h)

Void: Decide.

Count: Some words…… [lit: A word……]

Count: Just some words. [lit: Just a word.]

Count: …(So) Cold……All my life's blood is flowing out…

Count: I'm dieing……wretched…like this, as pieces of some loathsome monster……

Count: …And within that vortex…………

Count: (I'll be) For all eternity………?

Count: ……No……

Count: No…!!

Count: I don't want to……!!!

Count: to die…!!

Theresia: …Father…

Theresia: Kyaaaa(h).

Void: The thread of causality was severed.

Puck: The dead are going to drag the Count to Hell!?

Puck: Vargas!?

Count: …A(h)

Count: Aa(h)…

Count: Theresiaa!!

Theresia: …Father…?

Count: Theresia!!

[Theresia (outside speech bubble): Nooooo]

Puck: Theresia!!

Puck: Hi…

The Dead: A sacrifice!

The Dead: It's a sacrifice!!

Puck: Guts!?

Guts: Uoo(h)

Puck: That's right….!! Guts has the brand…!!

Guts: Gu…!!

Puck: Guts!!

Puck: …Are we…

Puck: …back?

Theresia: E(h)…

Theresia: E(h)…

Puck: Theresia…

Puck: …Theresia…

Theresia: Nooo

Puck: Th…

Puck: Theresia…!?

Theresia: No…

Theresia: No!!

Theresia: No!!

Theresia: Not like this!!!

Theresia: …It's a lie………

Theresia: Such a lie…

Theresia: Such a place…

Theresia: It's a lie…

Theresia: Send me back…

Theresia: To my room…

Theresia: Send me back…

Theresia: To that room!!

Theresia: I don't want to live…

Theresia: In a place like this…

Theresia: I don't want to live…

Theresia: If I have to live in a place like this…

Theresia: If I have to live in such a place…

Theresia: …I'd prefer to be dead……

Guts: …Then

Guts: Die.

Puck: That's cruel, Guts…

Puck: What kind of feelings was Theresia having…

Puck: Even you should understand!?

Guts: So…

Guts: If you want to die?

Guts: Why're you stopping? If you don't like it……

Guts: What, it's easy. Cut your wrist with that fellow. ['That fellow' being the knife.]

Guts: It'll end at that……

Guts: Farewell to all those disagreeable things…

Guts: You'll go to Heaven, won't you? [lit: If you, you'll be able to go to Heaven, won't you?]

Guts: Or, perhaps you'd prefer to go Hell?

Guts: Because you might be able to catch up with your mother and your father.

Puck: He's serious…!!

Puck: He's being perfectly serious……!! [Not sure about this.]

Guts: It's your life.

Guts: Die for your love. ["Anata no suki ni shina"? "Die for your love"? Or, "Do it for your love"? Considering the context, they mean pretty much the same thing.]

Puck: Theresia!?

Puck: Wa(h)-----

Puck: Hey!! Hey!! Hey!!

Puck: What do you think you're doing, Theresia!?

Puck: Stop!!!

Puck: Open your eyes!! Doing such a thing is the lowest!!! [alt: Open your eyes!! Killing yourself like this is disgusting!!!]

Puck: Theresia!!

Theresia: Kya(h)…!!

Theresia: U(h)
