| Episode # | Title | Story |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Kosuke Ueki. The Law of Justice | Ai Mori had her suspicions of classmate, Kosuke Ueki, but when she learned the truth she was even more surprised. Ueki has the ability to change trash into trees, a gift bestowed upon him by his teacher, Kobayashi. Kobayashi, who is nicknamed "Mr. K" (Kobasen in the Japanese version) is part of a grand tournament to decide the next God, but before Ueki can officially be declared Mr. K's fighter, the middle school student must first demonstrate his own sense of justice. |
| 2 | The Law of the Battle Commencement!" | Mori has decided to help Ueki, but she’s starting to see threats in every direction. When any middle school student could be a gifted, who knows when Ueki will be challenged. Two gifted do cross their paths. One is Seiichiro Sano, a decent type who they met while trying to rescue a small girl from a big fall. Another is Maruo Taira, a less than decent individual who has no problem attacking from behind. With the ability to turn water in his mouth to fire (and a little help from his God Candidate), how will Ueki fare in his first official gifted fight? |
| 3 | The Law of Talent | With a little help from Seiichiro, Ueki has defeated Taira and his cheating God Candidate, but there are other threats out there. Take Toshio Asachi for instance. He loves to run, but has no talent for it. Lucky for him that he is taking part in a tournament where the winners receive talents as prizes. With his sights set on Ueki, he intends to use his ability to turn cotton into stakes to win his much desired running talent. |
| 4 | The Law of Li Ho, The Man of Physical Skills! | Mori is determined to learn more about this tournament so when the opportunity arrives to gain such information from Mr. K, she leaps at the chance. During their talks they are interrupted by another gifted. Unlike Ueki’s previous opponents, though, this one is different. Li Ho prefers to use his own body to fight rather than his given ability. When Li Ho starts smashing Ueki’s trees with his bare hands, not even the sarcastic talent can help our hero. So what can he do when Li Ho unleashes his most powerful attack: The Count of Monte Cristo? |
| 5 | The Law of Robert Haydn, the Ultimate Power User | With another win and another zai under his belt, Ueki is able to relax for a little bit. When traveling by train one day, he meets Junichi Baba a.k.a. B.J., a hip-hop enthusiast who takes an immediate liking to Ueki. So why does he also say his name is Robert Haydn when he discovers that Ueki is also a gifted? Fortunately, B.J.'s ability to turn coins into wind is not enough to stop Ueki. The two part on friendly terms, but when the real Robert Haydn shows up, what will happen to Ueki’s new friend? |
| 6 | The Law of Goodbye | Mr. K forbids Ueki from challenging Robert Haydn, telling him that he is just too strong for Ueki. When Ueki hears that Robert has viciously attacked BJ, though, he just gets angry and becomes determined to challenge him. The two meet and Mr. K's words were correct. Robert is able to deflect every attack Ueki sends at him with his bubbles. Ueki is about to pay the ultimate price for his foolishness, but luckily Mr. K steps in with a last second rescue. But aren’t God Candidates forbidden from helping their chosen? |
| 7 | The Law of Kobasen | With Mr. K gone, Ueki isn’t sure what he should be doing anymore. In search of answers he goes to Mr. K's home where he finds an interesting file on his computer. It seems Mr. K has been paying close attention to Ueki, making note of every kind act the boy does. Understanding the faith that his God Candidate had in him, Ueki is determined more than ever to win this tournament and keep the blank zai away from those that would abuse the power. With a new God Candidate backing him, Ueki takes on the next challenge: Bolo T, a gifted with the ability to turn his forehead into diamond. |
| 8 | Fair and Square! The Law of Onimon | During a run in with some bullies, Ueki and Mori meet Monjiro Oniyama, aka Onimon, a very strong fighter with a sense of fair play. It turns out that he is also a gifted with the ability to turn the dirt he kicks into cannonballs. Clearly outmatched by Onimon’s 299 talents, Ueki is at a disadvantage in this fight. Worst of all, Onimon is not a bad guy, only wanting the blank talent in order to restore his home village to its’ former glory. Will Ueki be able to muster up enough determination to beat Onimon and his philosophy of "fair and square" fighting? |
| 9 | The Law of Onimon's Training | If Ueki defeated Onimon, why is he still trying to pick a fight with our hero? With the tournament behind him, Onimon comes with a warning to Ueki: beware the Black Shadow. With Onimon’s help, Ueki learns about a strategy he can use against this new threat. When Ueki finally does meet up with the Black Shadow, Onimon’s training seems to work. Yet with the ability to turn his own shadows into clay men, how can Ueki be sure he is even fighting the real Black Shadow? |
| 10 | The Law of Justice that never comes | No matter how many clay men Ueki takes down, they just keep coming. Despite these overwhelming odds, Ueki still fights Kuroki Kagedan, the Black Shadow. When he learns about the horrible event that lead to him joining Robert’s Ten, Ueki is determined to get through to him. Hoping to convey his own sense of justice, Ueki slowly reaches him. When the two finally start to fight on equal terms, another gifted shows up to put a stop to this fight by attacking Kuroki. But wait…isn’t this new gifted also a member of Robert’s Ten? |
| 11 | The Law of Robert's Ten | The White Shadow is Ueki’s opponent now and his ability to turn his own shadow into a robot is hard to beat. Still, Ueki is able to pull off a victory in the end with some inventive tree manipulation. Now that Ueki has beaten a member of Robert’s Ten, he gains their attention and is invited to join them. Not wanting to waste this opportunity to challenge Robert and his gifted allies, he accepts and heads to their headquarters. Upon meeting Robert’s Ten, he immediately makes a bad impression and even manages to insult Robert himself. So much for infiltrating the enemy, eh Ueki? |
| 12 | The Law of Heavenly Beings | For displeasing Robert, Ueki is tested. For three days he must stand with a large stone block on his back. If he can manage that, he is a member of Robert’s Ten. Meanwhile, some new information is found out about Ueki. Mori discovers that Ueki was actually adopted and Mr. K finds out that Ueki is actually a heavenly being sent to Earth as a baby. While this is certainly useful information, it doesn’t help Ueki now that he has revealed his true intentions to Alesshio who possesses the ability to turn earth into giant scythes. |
| 13 | The Law of the Heavenly Beast | Just when Ueki and Alesshio's fight gets started, a large fox-like creature erupts from the ground. Apparently it's a heavenly creature that was in search of Ueki in order to eat him. Upon meeting Ueki, though, the monster is unimpressed. The kid hasn't even awaken any of his heavenly powers. Yet Ueki lives to do the impossible and manages to not only reach one, but two levels of his heavenly powers within a short time. The heavenly creature seems impressed by this and agrees to help our hero despite his hatred for the heavenly beings that have treated him so poorly. |
| 14 | The Law of the Awakening Organ | Ueki returns to the Ten's hideout and tries to trick them with a lie about Alesshio's whereabouts, but the lie doesn't last long. Just as he blurts out the truth that he defeated Alessio, Don grabs him by the head and races off. Ueki shows off his newfound power by smashing a rock with Kurogane, but Don uses his ability to turn a ring into a rocket and obliterates a large chunk of the landscape. Ueki is no match for this strong opponent, but luckily Tenko, the heavenly creature, has a method for Ueki to get stronger. However, he might die if it doesn't work out. |
| 15 | The Law of Rinko | Upon defeating Don, Ueki is challenged by two more gifted: Marco Maldini who can create magma from tomatoes and Rinko Jerrard who can turn beads into bombs. Is an already tired Ueki up to the challenge of facing two strong opponents at once? But Rinko takes notice of Ueki's selflessness and begins to wonder what kind of people she has been surrounding herself with. Could it be that Ueki just might find a new ally among Robert's Ten? |
| 16 | The Law of Neo | Ueki is completely worn out after fighting four of the Ten. Rinko and Tenko do their best to give Ueki some time to heal, but the remaining ten aren't making it easy on them. Oni with his power to turn bamboo into scissors and Becky with her ability to turn BB's into meteorites try to get past Tenko's barrier, but it takes Myouji's ability to turn his whistle into a laser to break through. With Tenko and Rinko out of the fight, it is up to a revived Ueki to set things right. But what surprises will Myouji have for our hero? |
| 17 | The Law of the Two Powers | Taro Myojin has a little secret he's been keeping from the rest of the Ten. Aside from his ability to create lasers, he has another ability: to turn fans into buzzsaws. Forcing Ueki into a situation where he has to put himself into the direct path of Myojin's lasers, the cheating gifted has the upperhand. But Ueki has never been the type to give up easily and discovers a method of attack that wins the fight. With nine of the Ten defeated, it would seem Ueki has earned a well deserved rest. Unfortunately, a plea from Inumaru--another God Candidate--puts him back into the thick of things. |
| 18 | The Terrifying Law of Dogura Mansion | Ueki is invited to a party hosted by Robert Haydn, but Rinko isn't too happy about Ueki attending. Still, the group goes and meets the remaining members of Robert's Ten...including Sano Seiichirou, the man Ueki is intent on saving. Robert intends to have the two groups fight with the possibility of winning a special request from Robert. The first fight is Ueki versus Yun-Pao, a gifted with the ability to turn electricity into...sugar? Sounds ridiculous, but Ueki isn't ready for just how effective this ability actually is. |
| 19 | The Law of the Cossack Dance | Ueki finally finds out about Yunpao's weakness and goes on the attack. With one win on their side, it's Mori's turn to fight. Wait...she doesn't have any powers. How can she hope to defend herself? Her opponent is Kabara, a very talented hunter with the power to turn a cloak into wings. With plenty of ammunition and expert marksmanship, it seems like a lopsided fight. Luckily, what Mori lacks in power she more than makes up for in cunning and intelligence. |
| 20 | The Law of Cat and Mouse | It's Rinko vs. Kabara, and they fight in the...cat field? The objective is to get the opponent to get eaten by a cat, and to do that, they have to turn into a mouse! Slap the cat's nose and they become a mouse! Kabara seems to have the advantage in this one thanks to his ability to fly, but Rinko has a few tricks up her sleeves: some new weapons and a...love of animals? |
| 21 | The Law of Seiichiro Sano | Ueki is up against none other than Seiichirou Sano, the gifted he was trying to save in the jump rope field. But does Sano really want to be saved? Whatever the case, he isn't cutting Ueki any slack when he goes right into attack mode. With Sano countering every attack Ueki sends his way, our hero is going to have to get creative in order to win this battle. As it turns out, this is what Sano wanted from the beginning. So whose side is our towel user really on? What secret is he hiding from Ueki and his friends? |
| 22 | The Law of Inumaru | Sano joined the ten for a very specific reason: to rescue Inumaru from a devious attack by Karl Paccho. Using a Death Pentagon, an insect that can instantly kill a heavenly being, Karl forced Sano to join or watch his God Candidate die. But Inumaru's sense of justice won't stand for these conditions. He breaks the cardinal rule of this tournament: a God Candidate can only grant powers to one individual. When he gives Mori a power of her own, he is instantly sent to Hell, freeing Sano of the Ten's grasp. Of course this only serves to infuriate Ueki even more. With a challenge made to Karl Paccho, a new fight begins. But Karl has a surprise: his talent is to copy the power of other gifted. With all the power of Robert's Ten at his disposal, Ueki is in for a tough fight. |
| 23 | The Law of Ueki vs. the Ten | Karl Paccho may have the use of the Ten's powers, but that isn't advantage enough to defeat Ueki. With the six star treasure, Raika, at his disposal Ueki is running circles around Karl. Yet this vile gifted has a few more tricks to pull. He has two more unknown powers no one has seen yet: the ability to instantly know when your opponent is going to attack and the ability to change positions with anyone. Ueki is seemingly overwhelmed at this turn of events, but with some help from Tenko, he comes up with a plan that gives him the win. So now with three wins, Ueki and friends win the challenge (and some pretty cheesy prizes), but Ueki wants more: a fight with Robert! After two consecutive, grueling fights, is Ueki up for this? |
| 24 | The Law of Young Robert Haydn | Ueki finally has his rematch with Robert and thanks to Rinko, he even gets an insight into Robert's tragic past. Yet this doesn't stop Ueki from wanting to fight the leader of Robert's Ten. Unfortunately for Ueki, Robert reveals the true nature of his: he can turn any ideal into a reality. With such an unlimited power at his disposal, Robert is able to strengthen his own sacred treasures so that Ueki is no match for him. Robert calls this the second level of sacred treasures. Always up for the challenge, Ueki finds his own second level: the ability to summon more than one sacred treasure at a time. Will Ueki's newfound power and justice be enough to defeat the all powerful Robert? |
| 25 | Revival! The Law of Kobasen | Ueki's sense of justice won't let anyone down, even his enemies. But when Ueki shows kindness to Robert, the act does nothing to warm him over. If nothing else, it just motivates him to further his attacks on our hero. So when Ueki looks like he is down for the count, it is up to Sano and Rinko to take on Robert. With a surprising display of teamwork, the two of them show Robert how powerful friendship truly is, but Robert's twisted ideals prove too much for even them. Somehow Ueki finds the strength to push on, standing up after the beating he already took. Yet no matter what Ueki does to Robert, the villain won't give up, either. Only an unexpected ally can put an end to this fight. But why is he here? Wasn't he supposed to be in Hell? |
| 26 | Terror! The Law of Anon | Mr. K is back from Hell on a mission from Kami. It seems that the tournament is split in two parts and the first part has officially ended; next comes the group battles. A cease fire has been declared and some good news has been delivered: Mr. K and Inumaru can be God Candidates again! While Ueki and friends recover, an introspective Robert starts to wonder about his own motives. A talk with his "father" clarifies things, introducing the new threat of Anon, a very talented heavenly being who is Margaret's true son. What? But what about Robert? And who exactly is this Anon and why does he have such an interest in Ueki? |
| 27 | The Law of Hideyoshi | When discussing the latest developments with Robert, the group is met by God's assistant who explains the rules of the upcoming team tournament. Wanting another member, they go in search of a gifted by the name of Hideyoshi Soya, a gifted who prefers trickery over fighting. Surprised by what they find, they follow him back to "Sun House" where Hideyoshi helps take care of a group of children. It turns out that Ueki and Mori aren't the first to ask him to join a team. Soya's god candidate has a nasty group in mind, but Soya refuses, choosing to stay with the kids instead. But when one of those wicked gifted steal away with one of Sun House's residents, Soya and Ueki run off to get him back! Ueki may be tough, but how will the sneaky Soya fare in an actual fight? |
| 28 | The Law of the Sun House | Zack's gang of gifted want to destroy the Sun House so that Souya won't have a reason not to join anymore. But when Soya shows up, the plan has to change. The gifted liar does his best to avoid the attacks of Mario and Captain, but he succumbs to their onslaught and leaves the Sun House unguarded. Lying on the ground, Souya suddenly remembers his former God Candidate, a kindly man who just wanted to help humans out. Fortunately, Ueki makes it just in time to stop the house from being destroyed, but our hero is outnumbered 3 to 1. It seems that Captain has a nasty little trick up his sleeve: his power of freezing breath has another stage that completely freezes something and allows him to smash it easily. Is Ueki up for the challenge or will Mori be picking up little frozen pieces of our favorite heavenly being? |
| 29 | The Law of Immortal Tenko | Tenko is grateful to Ueki. He has given him friendship, a purpose and treasured memories. But Tenko has a secret: if he raises Ueki nine stars, Tenko will die. Tenko knows that if he tells Ueki this he will refuse to reach the nine star level. However, Tenko knows that Ueki has to get stronger to face his opponents. Unsure about what to do, Tenko decides to give his life for Ueki's quest to become stronger. After all, it was the first time in a long while that Tenko has felt needed and he appreciates it so much. When Mori finds out about this secret, she rushes off to stop Tenko from raising Ueki's level, but it is too late: Ueki is already inside of the awakening organ and he can't hear Mori from the outside. Will Ueki lose another precious friend in the name of this heavenly tournament? |
| 30 | The Law of the Third Battle | Ueki and friends are ready to start the team tournament stage. They make way to Heaven where they meet four other teams of gifted whom they are meant to battle. God makes an appearance to tell the teams the rules for this stage of the tournament and with his usual penchant for eccentricities, starts off with a treasure hunting battle by sending the two teams to their destination via a heavenly pachinko method. Ueki's Team is going to be up against the Guruno Team. Right from the start, Ueki is up against Gitar, a music loving guy in a full black suit. Ueki attacks him with everything he has, but Gitar just shakes off the attacks, claiming to be invulnerable. How will Ueki be able to defeat someone he can't even hurt? |
| 31 | The Law of Ultimate Tag Team | With one win, Team Ueki looks optimistic, but a new challenge awaits the group. This time around, Sano and Rinko will have to face a pair of gifted that make use of each other's abilities to defeat opponents. Muunin can turn bad puns into reality when the opponent laughs and Pastello can turn any line drawing into a portal which he uses to tickle the intended victim. Sano and Rinko are competent on their own, but lately they've been getting on each other's nerves. Can Sano look past Rinko's carefulness? Can Rinko look past Sano's carelessness? If they want to win this battle, they will have to find a way to look past each other's flaws and work together as a team. |
| 32 | The Law of Real Strength! | Ueki talks with Pekol who wishes to be strong just like Ueki. Inspired by Ueki's defeat of Gitar, he decides to quit working with Gurono. When he confronts his teammate about this, though, Pekol is verbally deflated and submits to Gurono's whims. With the ability to turn models into the real thing, Gurono summons a giant robot to combat Ueki. With no robot of his own, Ueki must rely on his own abilities. With a bit of ingenuity, Ueki knocks down the first robot, but Gurono summons another more powerful machine. How can Ueki keep fighting someone who can create an endless supply of powerful opponents? |
| 33 | Assault! The Law of Ueki vs. Li Ho | Ueki's team has just walked away from their first win, but their next opponent has just finished their match with a win in five minutes! Too bad they completely missed seeing it. While Ueki quietly ponders this, Li Ho shows up with a challenge: if Ueki can remain standing until the setting sun goes down, he will concede Ueki's chances at victory in the upcoming match against Marilyn Team. Ueki starts to attack, but Li Ho is able to deflect everything thrown at him. Still not relying on his gifted power, Li Ho has developed some new attacks using his own inner power. When Ueki uses his pick, Li Ho knocks it aside; when Ueki fires his Kurogane, Li Ho stops it in mid-air. Li Ho reveals his secret to Ueki about channeling his own inner power, a trick that Ueki soon mimics. But is this sudden power too much for Ueki? Can he truly handle this new technique against someone who has mastered it? |
| 34 | The Law of Team Marilyn | While the team is getting ready to face Team Marilyn, Yocchan is visiting Hell to talk with Mr. K and Inumaru. Returning with a message encouraging the group, Team Ueki gets fired up for their next battle. They fight in Gentle Ghost Town, a deserted area inhabited by ghosts. Each team member is given a pendant to wear that is given certain point values. Each team has to take the pendants from their opponents in order to win. While exploring their battle area, Team Ueki is surprised to find that Team Marilyn has already established a plan of attack. Poorly prepared for their opponents resourcefulness, Team Ueki falls prey to their battle strategy and quickly lose Rinko in the process! Making a quick escape, Ueki tells his teammates to go on without him. Facing Team Marilyn on his own, Ueki tries to buy his friends time to come up with their own plan of attack, but how will Ueki fare against tried combatants like Team Marilyn? |
| 35 | The Law of You Tricked Me! | Ueki's strategy of stalling for time has been found out and it greatly amuses Team Marilyn that Ueki would think of such a thing. Revealing their history of growing up on the battlefield, Ueki finally understands just how combat ready these opponents are. Leaving Baron to deal with Ueki, the other Team Marilyn members give chase to the remaining members of Team Ueki. Ueki tries to follow, but Baron doesn't let him. Determined to keep his opponent busy, Baron attacks Ueki with his close combat knife fighting, a specialty of his. It is quickly revealed that Baron's knife is more useful than it appears; Baron's power is to transport himself to wherever his knife is, an ability that leaves little maneuverability for Ueki. When Ueki adjusts his fighting style to combat this ability, Baron reveals his level two ability: to stop himself and his opponent in their tracks if he teleports within one meter of the person. Forced with a close combat battle, can Ueki come up with a usable strategy to grab victory before Baron does? |
| 36 | The Law of Proof of Friendship | While Ueki is busy trying to get back to his teammates, Sano, Mori and Soya face the remaining members of Marilyn Team. Being the only fighter with offensive capabilities, Sano decides it is up to him to protect the others. He seems to be doing fine, but it is a last second rescue by Mori that shows him he can depend on his friends for support. Using their own strategies, they are able to counter Marilyn Teams many traps and even set a few of their own. This ends with Marilyn Team losing Puding. Faced with dwindling numbers, they choose this moment to reveal Matthew's hidden power: the ability to grow two extra sets of arms, all of which fire rapid fire guns! Sano manages to protect his teammates from the brunt of his attacks, but Marilyn is back and looking to put an end to their resistance. Will Ueki make it in time to help his friends or will they all end up in the care of gentle ghosts like Rinko did? |
| 37 | The Law of the Sacred Weapons' Weak Spot | Sano, Mori and Soya are facing the remaining members of Team Marilyn. Sano is doing his best to protect his friends, leaving Soya with a chance to escape. Soya jumps at the chance, but a moment from the past reminds him that even he can overcome his own cowardice. Distracting Team Marilyn, the three of them escape only to be ensnared once again. Mayilyn tells them how hopeless their situation is, explaining how Ueki won't even be able to save them. However, Ueki lives to do the impossible and manages to come just in time to save Sano from a lethal blow. Proving that his sacred treasures aren't as weak as others think they are, Team Ueki is ready to fight on, but who should interrupt but the Kami-sama himself! He reveals the bearer of the ten point necklaces: Marilyn for Team Marilyn and Mori for Team Ueki. Everyone splits up, but how will Team Ueki fare against the well trained Team Marilyn without the benefit of teamwork? |
| 38 | The Law of Sano's Awakening | Ueki is left to face Marilyn who has a strange ability to dodge every single attack Ueki throws at her. After some careful testing, Ueki discovers she can stretch 1 second into 10 seconds, thus being able to attack and move at seemingly rapid speeds. Marilyn is quick to display how advantageous this power truly is on an unfortunate Ueki. Meanwhile, Sano is left to face he of the six arms, Matthew. No matter what Sano throws at Matthew, it is all shot down. Matthew goes so far as to claim Sano's power to be completely worthless. But Sano thinks otherwise; this power is a special gift from his friend, Inumaru. Wishing he could be stronger to make better use of this gift, he discovers his level 2: the power to turn his iron into a powerful magnet. Matthew's bullets and guns are no more the advantage they were. Unfortunately, he has an ace up the hole of 6 brass batons. With an uncanny close range fighting ability, Matthew relentlessly attacks Sano. How will his newly found level 2 help in this situation? |
| 39 | The Law of the Closed Heart | Marilyn continues her assault on Ueki, leaving him no chance for defense. No matter what Ueki tries in terms of strategy, Marilyn's ability to turn one second into ten seconds is too much of an advantage. But Ueki has been watching her and notices that she, too, has her weaknesses. Noticing her reliance on practiced fighting patterns, Ueki comes up with a plan to counter her moves. When he has his chance to counter, he stops, noticing tears coming from Marilyn's eyes. Ueki realizes that she truly doesn't want to fight and refuses to go on with this battle. This infuriates Marilyn, forcing her to make use of her level 2: the ability to double her attack power. Still, Ueki refuses to fight, prompting childhood memories in Marilyn, memories she would rather forget. Will Marilyn's past reveal a truth about herself she wasn't able to face? Or will she force herself to fight once again and continue her attack on Ueki? |
| 40 | The Law of "It's a Wonderful Ai" | Mori faces Memory all by herself. Still unsure of her power, she tries to bluff for time while waiting for her teammates. Unfortunately, Sano can't hear her cries for help and Ueki just passed out! Left on her own, Mori can only run away from the battle experienced Memory. Mori tries desperately to solve the mystery of her power, trying out every idea that pops in her head. It is only when she is close to defeat does she figure what it is: the power to make anyone a glasses lover! With Memory completely enthralled by Mori's glasses, she has no choice but to do what she says before Mori breaks her beloved glasses and this includes knocking herself out! Team Ueki wins! The team recuperates, even getting a visit from Marilyn. The next day, Team Ueki gets ready to face Team Caption, but before they can show up, Anon stands in their way determined to keep them from their appointed fight. He refuses to let Ueki face weak opponents and decides to take them on himself. Are Ueki and his friends up to the challenge of the all powerful Anon? |
| 41 | The Law of the Real Thing vs. the Impostor | Ueki and his team are sore about Anon ambushing them before their fight with Team Caption--and they aren't the only ones--but they choose not to dwell on the situation. Instead, they get some time to relax at home on Earth. Ueki heads back to his home and finally reveals everything that is going on about him being from heaven and his current fight for the God candicacy. Ueki's family--being the strange ducks they are--take everything in stride, especially when they see Tenko appear from Ueki's arm. Upon returning to Heaven, Ueki has a run in with his real father. Inviting him to their room unknowing of his connection to him, Ueki and his friends are determined to make the old man act social. Ueki's father finds himself at odds. He is uncomfortable around Ueki, but secretly wants to know if he is still important to his son. He asks if he prefers the real or the fake, a question Ueki's adoptive father asked earlier. Ueki's reply is that he prefers the real, adding that his adoptive father is the real one in his eyes. Ueki's father feels a bit deflated at this, but understanding. He decides that he doesn't have a place in Ueki's life anymore, but he leaves Ueki with a parting gift: the secret to level 2. Will Ueki be able to make good use of this advice for the upcoming fight against Team Barrou? |
| 42 | The Law of Team Barou | Against Team Barou, Rinko goes first. Her opponent is Ban Dicoot, but Tenko notices something odd about him: he is a heavenly being! In fact, all of Team Barou are heavenly beings. They were all brought together for this tournament in order to support Anon and Margaret's wish to become God. Like Ueki, Ban is able to make use of the sacred treasure, but something is different about these treasures that force Rinko to hold back her attacks. It seems that Ban's power is to bring life to inanimate objects which come out looking like cute, adorable faces that Rinko can't bring herself to hit! Rinko has no choice but to take the abuse rather than fight back, but when Ban starts verbally abusing her, she snaps! Using a specifically designed glove, she is able to create a slap with enormous power, smacking both Ban and his adorable Pick into submission. Returning to her frightened friends victorious, she retains no knowledge of her strange transformation. Next up is Sano who faces Diego Star. It quickly becomes apparent that his gifted power is to make his sacred treasures colorless and invisible, making it impossible for Sano to see the oncoming attacks. Sano tries to outthink his opponent, but Diego is no slouch in the brains department, either. How can Sano hope to overcome this manly opponent? |
| 43 | The Law of the Goody Two-Shoes Pose | Sano took Diego's advice to heart and came up with a plan to defeat him. By making a magnetic track, Sano propelled himself towards a trapped Diego at incredible speeds and rammed him head on. Still, Diego was able to grasp victory by a powerful bluff while Sano was in the null power area. Now the games are tied one to one. Next up is Mori vs. Kilnorton, he of the 179 IQ. Mori is freaking out about how to get him to do the special pose, but thanks to Soya, Mori tricks him! The problem is that Kilnorton has already planned for everything, refusing to knock himself out because it would damage his own glasses. Now Mori has to work even harder for a win. After accidentally destroying both pairs of glasses, Mori surprises everyone by revealing a backpack full of fake glasses from the Hundred Yen Store. Mori threatens to break them all with a huge rock if Kilnorton doesn't use his head as a shield. Luckily, Kilnorton's IQ is no match for Mori's cunning! Next up is Barou vs. an already tired and injured Sano. Sano knows he can't do much, but he promises to get Barou to reveal his power. He succeeds, but Barou has no intention of allowing Sano to tell his friends what it is and cruelly knocks him out, angering Ueki. The two are next to meet, but a shocking bit of information from Tenko reveals that Ueki is going into this fight severely handicapped: Ueki is now a 0 star heavenly being! |
| 44 | The Law of Ueki Level 2! | Angered by Barou's attack on Sano, Ueki is ready for this fight. Problem is that he had all of his sacred treasures removed! It seems that Ueki's heavenly father gave him some advice on reaching level 2. Ueki's problem is that he didn't fully master his gifted power before obtaining his sacred treasures. With the two conflicting powers, Ueki isn't able to master his original power well enough to reach level 2. To do that, he has to get rid of his heavenly powers and work from there. Ueki is determined to do this, fending off Barou's multiple attacks with creative uses of his trash to trees power. Ueki still can't head or tails of Barou's power, until Sano wakes up and reveals Barou's ability to make past visions a reality, meaning any of his past attacks can come back at any moment. While Ueki contemplates this, a conversation between Koba-sen and Inumaru reveal that Ueki's power of trash to trees isn't normal like everyone else's. Ueki can continually reuse his power, turning trash to tree to trash to tree again. Koba-sen reveals that if Ueki can master his level 2, it would completely change the course of the tournament. So just what could this mysterious power be? |
| 45 | The Law of the Attack from the Past | Ueki has finally reached his level 2 power! He can now revert the powers of others back to their original state. If Barou attacks with multiple visions made reality, Ueki can return them to simple past visions. Barou's advantage is severely limited with this turn of events. Barou realizes this and presses on, hoping to overwhelm Ueki before he can fully master this power, but as he does so, the past that wounds him so comes back to him. A long time ago, he lived peacefully with his mother, but due to an accident, he used his sacred treasure on his mother. Resulting in a comatose state, Barou tried desperately to awaken his mother with pictures, hoping they would reach her heart. Nothing seemed to work until one day burglars came to his home and tried to attack his mother. She finally awoke and saw Barou with his kurogane activated. The sight of it frightened her and made Barou leave in a rush, running into Margaret and the future Team Barou. Back to the present, Ueki manages to avoid all of Barou's attacks before finally landing a powerful Pick. Barou is down and Team Ueki win! Kami-sama is watching this while his assistant is furious for hiding the fact that a Hellion is taking part in the tournament. Kami-sama chooses this time to explain how he came to create this tournament. It all started when he met a young girl on Earth named Haruko...Haruko Ueki. |
| 46 | The Law of God, the Girl and the Future | God continues telling his story of the past and the girl he met, Haruko Ueki. After saving her from the bullies, she tries to pay him back, first by force feeding him several plates of curry, then by a whole mess of other thing. Eventually, God is able to escape, but not before he finds an elderly woman whose foot gets stuck in a railroad track. God knows that he can't interfere with life or death situations on earth, but just when it seems that the woman will die, Ueki jumps in and helps the woman. Seeing the girls determination, bravery, and optimism towards the future, God jumps in and saves them both. It is at this point that he makes the decision to start the tournament. After this, God decides to try and change the Hellions hearts and turn them away from their plan to take over Heaven. He goes to confront Maragarette, who is in fact not Margarette at all, but a Hellion. Just like Robert, Margarettes body was taken over by a Hellion. It is also revealed that Ueki Haruko, the young girl that was inspiration for the tournament, was Ueki's adoptive mother. On this day of, Ueki and the gang are celebrating, and Ueki has curry to commemorate his mothers death. Back with God, as he faces Hellion Maragarette, the two fight using their Sacred Treasures, but it is a draw. They finally pull out one last powerful Treasure: the level 10 Sacred Treasure, Maou. However, the episode ends without revealing exactly what Maou is. |
| 47 | The Law of Anon aka God | The final round is approaching and everyone is contemplating the upcoming round. Ueki and Mori chit chat and Ueki gives her his lucky charm, telling her she needs it more than he does. Souya sits on a cliff and comes to the conclusion that he is useless and a hindrance. And Rinko and Sano walk along in the forest, and Sano comments on how she still loves Robert. He tries to ease her troubles by telling her that they will get Robert back. As everyone is doing this, God and Hellion Margarette continue their battle, both coming to standstills, despite putting everything they have into it. When the fight winds down, Hellion Margarette reveals that he knows that God has an item powerful enough to give God the edge. However, God was holding out in an effort to change Margarettes mind. Instead, they call it a draw. Just after, however, Anon uses a powerful Ranma blade to slice through God. Not expecting this, God is struck and left bleeding on the floor. Anon then reveals his true plans, which have nothing to do with Hellion Margarette or the Protector clan. Anon wants to take over the 4th round battle and change the rules. Finally, Anon does this by taking God's precious "Mr. Stop" item and changes the rules to suit his own purpose. The first change: the 4th round moves from daybreak to immediately. |
| 48 | The Law of the Fourth Round | The fourth round begins and Anon explains the rules. They are quite simple: be the first to make it to Anon and defeat him to win. If they can't, Anon will destroy everyone. While Anon hides in his floating battlefield, everyone attempts to meet up with him, including Ueki and Ai, but they are stopped by Hellion Margarette. Margarette threatens Ueki then goes after Ai. However, due to Ueki's determination to stop Anon, Margarette reveals his true form, and the secret of The Protectors: they are sacred beasts in human form. Meanwhile, Li Ho is the first to meet up with Anon, and they fight. Li Ho stands up pretty well against Anon, managing to block most incoming attacks and show an impressive display of power as usual. However, he is no match for Anon, and is defeated after a long battle. Just as he faints, Rinko and Sano show up ready to fight. But they aren't alone. Ban Dicoot and Diegostar show up to help. |
| 49 | The Law of the Ten Stars | Rinko and group fight Anon and a long battle ensues. After going through several basic attacks, Ban and Diego creat a combination attack, while Sano uses a new special attack which, unfortunately, we never see. However, even these are ineffective. In the meantime, Ueki begins training inside the Heavenly Beast that Hellion Margarette has become, while Ai runs to meet up with everyone at Anon. Along the way she is stopped by Kilnorton, who pleads with her to make him love glasses again so he will go help the others fight. When she runs away from him, he explains the importance of Ban and Diego to him. After doing so, Ai tricks him into thinking he loves glasses and they run up to meet the others. As Ban, Diego, and Kilnorton are now together, they can perform their special combination attack. Unfortunately, while they are powering it up, Kilnorton is taken out by Anon. He then proceeds to take out everyone else. Once they are gone, only Ai remains. Anon picks her up and walks her over to a cliff, choking her all the way. While doing this he explains why he has done what he has done. As a protector, he never understood happiness. Then one day he started believing that happiness was a path devoid of hindrances, and that meant destroying everyone. Just as Anon drops Ai off the cliff, she is caught by Ueki, who has become a level 10 Heavenly Being. He uses the level 9 flying Sacred Treasure, Seikku, to catch her. |
| 50 | The Law of Ueki vs Anon | After waiting for a long time, the battle between Anon and Ueki finally gets underway. Ueki is even the first to get a hit off of Anon as he transfers the energy from his Raika to his Seikku in order to match Anon's speed. At this point, Anon unleashes his Maoh, the level 10 Sacred Treasure, and we finally get to see it. Maoh is a summoned creature that takes on a random form and is as powerful as the will of it's user. Ueki also summons Maoh, which takes on the form of Kobayashi, but is still less powerful than Anon. Anon seems to be getting the better of Ueki, until he reveals a secret: Maoh can only be summoned six times, and Anon is on his last one because Robert used it twice before the fight. However, Ueki still has two. Just as Ueki feels defeated, Ai calls to him and Ueki finds his will: the will to protect his friends. His Maoh finally overpowers Anon's, and Anon runs out of Maoh. As a reward, he spits out Robert. Without Robert, however, he can no longer use Roberts power. He explains why he spits him out. With Robert, Anon was limited by how many Zai Robert had. Now that he has been spit out, he is no longer limited in the number of Zai. This is unlike Ueki, who is not technically fighting a competitor of the tournament. And because he only has 18 Zai left, Ueki only has 18 chances to take out Anon. |
| 51 | The Law of the Blank Talent | The final episode. The battle between Anon and Ueki is in its midst, but quickly gets sour for Ueki as he continually uses his Treasures against Anon. Each one hits, but just barely, as Anon is able to tactically get the treasures to hit, but not hurt him. Ueki finally gets down to only a few, and those quickly deteriorate. Just as things seem at their end, Ai, Rinko, and Sano all attack, managing to help out Ueki just enough. However, Ueki is down to his last two Zai, and he uses them, first by using a Kurogane to throw Anon off balance and then his last Maoh to finish the job. And he does, as Anon and Ueki disappear through a thick, black cloud of smoke. Ai pines for Ueki, and Rinko and Sano are in disbelief. Just as they begin to mourn for Ueki, Barou and Hideyoshi show up, Hideyoshi apparently knocked out. As it turns out, Hideyoshi took a direct from the Kurogane that Ueki had unleashed. This counted as a defeat, and as the rules state, whenever a representative defeats another, he gains a Zai. So in essence, as Ueki lost all his Zai, he gains one, and that means he doesn't in fact disappear. And now everyone is happy. The show pretty much wraps up now with a look at everyone's departure and them getting on with their life. Ueki gets the Blank Zai, Rinko goes out with, and subsequentally dumps, Robert, Sano goes in search of hot springs all over the world, Hideyoshi takes off never knowing he saved Ueki. As for Inumaru, who was trapped in hell, he is elected God by the Ueki team as a whole. Ueki and Ai get back to their old life and Ueki appears to be getting better at the things he had been poor at when he lost his Zai. Finally, at the end, we see Kobayashi return to being a teacher at the school. This is due to the Blank Zai that is revealed at the very end: Zai of Reunion. |
