Soul: Maka... // Is Arachne still alive...? // What about that body?

11
Maka: I can't say for sure whether this is magic or not... / But I feel Arachne from the insanity that is flowing through this room.
Medusa: A body is nothing more than a container... // Isn't that right, Nee-san...?
Maka: She's coming...!

12-13
[no text just ooh]

14
Maka: !!
Soul: That's her all right... // (This grotesque insanity that even I can sense...)

15
Medusa: Vector Storm!!

16
Medusa: ...And compress!!
Maka: Incredible! // Did you get her?!

17
Medusa: Not good enough...

18
Arachne: That won't work, Medusa... I have abandoned my body and become insanity itself... // I have travelled to a place you people cannot reach...
Maka: Become insanity...?! / What do you mean to achieve by that?
Medusa: ...... // You're after... // ...the Kishin.

19
Medusa: You mean to become insanity itself... / ...align yourself with the Kishin... / ...and draw him into yourself.
Arachne: Fear envelops the world... // ...whilst insanity consumes everything. // It is a place of rest, Medusa. // I shall become the mother of all.

20
Medusa: Hahaha... // A mother? You? Don't make me laugh. // "Mother of the Demon Weapons"... It's just absurd. // Everyone puts you on a pedestal, calling you the "mother of the Demon Weapons", but, Nee-san... // ...surely all you really did was read from the Book of Eibon?
Arachne: It matters not who originated it, nor who did the creating... what matters is what you achieve from it in the end. // And you... you can't even win yourself a man's heart. What good are you, really?

21
Arachne: Doctor Stein... was that his name? You had quite the little crush on him, as I recall.
Medusa: Well, naturally... // Unlike you, he actually has creativity. // You laughed at this body of mine before, now, didn't you? // But which of us is in the more ridiculous form right now, hm?

22
Arachne: Laughing at that which has no form... now that is what I would term ridiculous. // Medusa... you I shall not plunge into insanity...

23
Arachne: I shall devour your very mind.

24
[no text just bad Arachne! no devouring the evil loli's mind!]

25
Maka: Medusa?!
Medusa: ......!! // Ngh...... // (I was... annihilated in an instant...)
Soul: Is that a mental attack like the one she used on me before?
Arachne: Oh, I would not compare it to the likes of that...

26
Maka: Where is Chrona?!!
Arachne: Your eyes are strong... the Demonslayer Wavelength... So that is why Medusa brought this child with her.

27
Arachne: And such soul perception capacity... truly, this is a dangerous one... // I suppose I shall toy with her... terrify her... // ...and plunge her into insanity.
Maka: What have you done with Chrona?!

28
[no text just maka vs arachne]

29
Soul: What's going on...? I'm not feeling the slightest resistance...

30
Arachne: As you can see from my corpse over there... / I have abandoned physical form. // No attacks will affect me now. // I shall enjoy killing you, slowly but surely...
Soul: Maka...
Maka: Yeah...

31
Maka: The "Demon Hunter" that defeated the Clown... it just might work...

32
Sid: Kniges... / Tend to Black☆Star's wounds!

33
Kniges: Don't you go dying on us, Black☆Star!
Sid: Don't worry!
Someone: ?!
[TN: Who's that...? Is it Sid...?]
Sid: What the...?

34
Tsubaki: Nnhhh......
Sid: What's this?!

35
Kim: Aaahhhh...
Ox: Kim... Are you okay?
Harvar: ? / What's wrong with the both of you...?
Jackie: Can't you feel it, Harvar...?
Harvar: .........Insanity?
Kilik: Maybe you don't feel it, since you're always so dry to a fault, but...

36
Kilik: Ungh......... / In my head...

37
Kilik: There are spiders... / ...tearing at... / ...the inside of my head...
