Ép. 30: Fakir Faces Execution While Duck Searches for Heart Shards Beyond the City Gates

30

Fakir is finally able to speak to the oak tree. Meanwhile Duck skips class to see how Fakir is doing and in turn Neko Sensei asks if he can have a word with her. He tells her that if she has a dream, she shouldn't just decide to do nothing. Duck realizes that she just assumed she cannot help Myuuto anymore and sets out in search of the rest of the heart shards, without realizing that Neko Sensei was talking about his marriage with her. She then sees Myuuto where she accidentally turns herself into a duck. Myuuto, not knowing she is Princess Tutu, tells her how he wants to love the world and protect it, but at the same time wants all the love in the world for himself. Duck sees the two sides of his heart and decides to try her best. Though she searches the city for hours, she eventually finds that there is no place with a heart piece but the gates leading out of the city. She turns into Princess Tutu and climbs above the gate only to find that there is nothing but a wall beyond the town. Meanwhile, mysterious people come to Fakir and tell him that his hands shall be cut off like Drosselmeyer's were years ago. They claimed this was their duty for generations and now it was Fakir's turn. They take Fakir to Drossselmeyer's grave where they are about to cut his hands off. Meanwhile, Princess Tutu is still on top of the gate, and from her height she sees what is happening to Fakir. In order to save him she interjects, but Drosselmeyer takes her into his world so that the mysterious people don't find out too much. Fakir comes to realize that everything is a story and that if he wants to save Myuuto, he has to fight Drosselmeyer's story itself. At the same time, Rue meets Aotoa and takes him to an unknown place where he tells her he has fallen in love with her enough to take his life. Not believing him, Rue tells Aotoa to leave.
