Arata quotes from Trinity Seven

Arata

Whoa, this is creepy, but kind of awesome.

Lilith

Yeah, well it's always been a giant labyrinth, just not so spooky.

Arin

It's true, this is all Yui's magic. I get the feeling she's about to awaken.

Arata

Awaken? What, is she asleep too?

Levi

It's not like a normal sleep state. Yui is a kind of mage who lives in another realm, in a world of dreams. That's what her thema is about.

Levi

Come on, let's try to find her before Mira and Akio get to her. It would be bad if they beat us.

Arata

Why's that?

Arin

Grimoire Security is supposed to deal with it. But they have a strict zero tolerance policy. They reformat the Breakdown Phenomenon and destroy the cause.

Levi

If they find Yui before we do, they will destroy her for sure.

Arata

Ah, bunny rabbit panties.

Mira

Akio, hurry up and beat her so you can crush this filthy idiot and get his repulsive face out of my sight forever.

Lilith

We made it. This is Yui's room.

Arata

So what's with this goofy sign?

Lilith

I can only guess that either Levi or the headmaster made it.

Levi

A ninja can't expect much from anyone. And the nature of Yui's magic makes it really hard to get close to her. She and I are a lot alike in that way.

Arata

Why can't you expect much?

Levi

That's how a magic thema works. It's composed of a quality you don't have. At least, that's how it usually is. So since I can't expect much from anyone, I expect a lot from myself.

Arata

Magic is doing the thing that seems furthest from what your rational mind wants you to do.

Levi

Are you someone who want's to control everything?

Arata

I am. I especially want to control what's going on here, and stop the Breakdown Phenomenon.

Arata

So, I wake up, and there's a naked loli in my bed.

Arin

[mumbling while asleep] My husband...

Arata

Two, actually.

Yui

[mumbling while asleep] Big brother...

Lilith

Arata, what are you still doing in bed? You're going to be late. [comes in] Honestly, you're too old not to wake up on your own... [stops as she sees Arata in bed with Arin and Yui]

Arata

Got room for one more.

Lilith

I said get out of bed!

Yui

Oh Arin, you don't have anything to worry about.

Arin

Hm?

Yui

I don't mind being Arata's mistress.

Arin

Sounds like a plan to me.

Arata

Oh my god, I love this place.

Arata

So I'm guessing you're friends with the ninja because you don't really understand how friendships are supposed to work. She can't expect anything from anyone, so expectation is her thema. You don't get the concept of friends, so friendship is your thema. Sound about right?

Yui

Well, it's not how I would put it, but more or less. I've been asleep by myself in here this whole time. I might never have woken up if it hadn't been for you. You know, I'm kind of glad I didn't have anyone before.

Arata

Okay, so my magic undid your power and because of that, you were able to wake up and be in the material world?

Yui

Yes, that's right.

Arata

Interesting. All right, well, do you think you want to be my friend?

Yui

Your friend?

Arata

Well sure, you need more than just the ninja. I'll research that thema of yours, we'll do it together.

Yui

Yay, that's great. Big brother and I are friends now.

Yui

So, since we're friends, and we're going to be doing stuff together, you can have your way with me whenever you want.

Arata

Uh, can have my way with you?

Lilith

Don't even think about it!

Arata

Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Lilith

[is actually talking in her sleep] You shouldn't be doing that. You're gross.

Arata

That girl even dreams about crushing my fantasies.

Lieselotte

So the new Demon Lord is nothing but a creepy little pervert? Wonderful.

Arata

Yeah, turns out all this magicy stuff doesn't really have a lot of rules or scruples.

Lieselotte

I'm sure that you're aware that every mage ultimately wants to become a Demon Lord. So shouldn't it follow that any one of us will do whatever it takes to become a candidate?

Lilith

That's true, but you are supposed to research your thema first.

Lieselotte

Why would I waste time doing that? I'd rather jump straight to the finish line, like Mister Demon Lord candidate over here. Skip all the boring process stuff and get straight to the results. It's just the way I like to do things, you know.

Arata

Well, I've always been a fan of shortcuts.

Lieselotte

Totally, right?

Lilith

What? Arata?

Arata

I'm with you, I don't like going to too much trouble. If there's an easier way to get to the end I'm always going to choose that option. However, you've done more than that. I don't really like stealing magic, it just seems wrong to me.

Really, do you wish to fight her? She's far stronger than anyone we've fought before.

Arata

Yeah, well being a Demon Lord has kind of become my new thing.

Good point.

Lieselotte

Well, Demon Lord candidate, why don't you come on over to the dark side with me?

Arata

And be an evil mage? What makes you think I would do that?

Lieselotte

You afraid to be a real bad boy in front of our teacher and security?

Lilith

Arata, don't listen, you can't trust anything she says.

Lieselotte

I will tell you this, and I think you'll like it. [an image of Hijiri appears in front of Arata] If you want to save Hijiri Kasuga, the girl who was swallowed up by the Breakdown Phenomenon, coming to my side would save you a lot of time.

Arata

How the hell do you know about Hijiri?

Lieselotte

You really want to know? I can tell you, only if you come over to my side, Arata Kasuga.

Mira

You have the rather fortunate ability of somehow copying the magic of other mages.

Arata

Well yeah, but it doesn't always work because of some rule about processes or something like that.

Mira

That's my point. You can only figure it out in practice. So you're going to fight Akio.

Akio

That's right buddy, and I want you to make an attempt to take my favorite spell, Mantra Enchant. Let's get down to it.

Arata

Whoa, wait wait wait! I still don't know what process means.

Mira

I know and you're going to need to figure it out sooner than later, or you're going to die.

Akio

Here I come, you better get ready.

Arata

Isn't this a dangerous way to go about teaching me?

Akio

Hey, get back here!

Levi

It seems like Arata's real objective is to see the all the members of Trinity Seven naked.

Arata

That is not true.

Yui

Are you saying you don't want to?

Arata

No, I do.

Lilith

Oh, good grief!

Lieselotte

I believe Levi's the only one you haven't seen. A ninja never lets her guard down, so that could be difficult.
