Granblue Fantasy Theater A veteran soldier wracked with remorse, Eugen once traveled the skies alongside Rackam as a skyfarer, but has since returned to his home on the Auguste Isles. Working as a mercenary fighting against the empire, he shares some kind of deep connection with the Black Knight, but chooses to run from it, saying he's too old to deal with it. It's during his attempts to flee from responsibility that he encounters you and decides to travel alongside you to stand up to his past. A crafty fellow, Eugen often mystifies others with sayings accumulated from his years of experience.

Happy Birthday Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Oho! Is it yer birthday today? Since it's such a special day, we should hold a great feast in your honor!
2	✔	Isn't that nice! It's yer birthday! Gah ha ha hah. Since I remembered, yer probably wondering where your present is. Don't worry. I got ya somethin'. Haha! When I get a present for a kid, this is the same thing I always get! Hah hah. No matter how old ya get, you'll always be a dewy-eyed child to me. Gah ha ha hah! Come on, let's go get a drink!
3	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain)! Time flies... I can really see that when I look at how much you've grown. And I guess I plan on watchin' you grow for some time to come. Actually I've got a little dream of my own—if that's what you could even call an old man's dumb wish. It's that... Well, when you're old enough to drink, I want to take you out for a round. Hey, what're you laughing at? This is a serious topic. Just surprised you, huh? Haha. Either way I'm lookin' forward to it. Hurry up and get older, (Captain)!
4	✔	Hey, (Captain). How's it feel to be another year older? Bahaha! Doesn't feel real, huh? I getcha. Even I still feel like I'm the same person inside, no matter how many years go by. It doesn't feel like I've grown all that much. You say you wanna become a model adult like me? Geez, I know you're just butterin' me up, but it's working!
5	✔	Happy birthday, (Captain). Bahaha! The more we travel, the more I find myself likin' that look in your eyes. When ya get to be my age, gettin' another year older doesn't really mean much. But it's different for youngsters like you. You grow with every passin' day. In other words, our captain's still got plenty of potential left to reach! Won't be long until you're a finer adult than I could ever hope to be. I can't wait to see it.

Happy New Year Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy New Year to ya, Captain! Here's to another great year ahead!
2	✔	Happy New Year, (Captain). Heh heh. And what a happy new year it is! It's been great to watch the first sunrise with ya. Well, it's nice and all to see the first sunrise from an airship, but... I still think the best sunrise is the one on the shores of Auguste. I remember standing there with her and Apollo. We all wished it'd last forever. Oh ho, apologies. Wouldn't wanna talk the sunrise away, heh heh.
3	✔	Bahaha! It looks like we're facing another new year together, you and me, (Captain). Honestly though, I feel like the crew has truly become something like a second family to me. I'm proud to have been able to watch you grow over the years. Hey, don't give me that look now! Watchin' over you youngsters is my privilege as your elder. Hm? What about Apollo, you say? Don't be foolish, that's a whole different story. But I don't need to tell you that... I'll be upfront and honest with her from here on out. I may have strayed from the path along the way, but I'm still her father after all... Heh.
4	✔	It's one of life's mysteries... As soon as the clock strikes twelve on New Year's Eve, beer just tastes better than it did the year before! Hm? Oh, don't worry your pretty little head, Captain. I'm just a little buzzed, no more. That's the sweet spot! Now! How about we trade New Year's resolutions? Hehe... I've actually been cookin' mine up all year. (Captain), I want you to keep an eye on me an' make sure I stick to it! My resolution this year is to... Hic! To quit drinkin'... Aw, damn it. I broke it already...
5	✔	All right, (Captain), keep it up! Now you're puttin' your back into it! Your mochi poundin' form's lookin' pretty good. But poundin' mochi comes down to more than just swingin' the mallet. I'm about to show you how it's done. Y'know how I've been flippin' the mochi when you raise the mallet? That helps get rid of the grainy rice texture. And I'll have ya know I've always been really good at it. No matter how fast you swing that mallet, you won't crush my hand. C'mon, (Captain). Give it a try. Go, go! Just like that... One more time! Nice job. Let's pick up the pace! Yo! Hup! Hah! Hmph! Yah! Whoop! Hey! Hyah! Yeah! I knew those muscles weren't just for show! Guess I oughta get serious... Let's go, (Captain)! Give it everythin' you've got! Heave-ho, heave-ho, heave-ho, heave-ho! Heave-ho, heave-ho, heave-ho, heave-ho! All right! Now we'll be able to enjoy some tasty mochi. Bahaha! I can't wait.

Valentine's Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Hey, it's Valentine's Day! I don't mind havin' a few sweets today! Whaddya got? Hmm, that looks like it'd go well with a drink! Thank ya kindly!
2	✔	Oy, oy, what's goin' on here? Ya got somethin' for this old man too? Hahaha! Well, I'll be! I'm sure Apollo'd say somethin' if she saw this, so let's keep it our little secret. Thanks, Captain. Happy Valentine's.
3	✔	I gotta admit, (Captain). At first I was kinda embarrassed to get chocolates from you... But as the years go by, I'm happier than anything else. Not only that, but your chocolates are seriously in a whole class of their own... But it can't be easy makin' all those chocolates for everybody now, can it? I mean... I don't want you goin' outta yer way for me or nothing. It ain't easy finding the right kind of chocolate for a sweet tooth like me, you say? Bahaha! You shouldn't worry about that kind of stuff fer me. What makes your chocolates truly special isn't just the flavor, you see. The sentiment is what makes it really special, especially from you! Flavor comes second to that, you see. But of course, it helps that your chocolates are always delicious too! Bahahaha!
4	✔	Doesn't matter how old I get, Valentine's Day always puts a smile on my face! Look at this! I got quite the pile of chocolate from our crewmates! I know they do it more outta obligation than anything else... But the consideration still makes me happy. Do you have chocolate for me too, (Captain)? Oho... No obligation involved, you say? Just sincere appreciation? Haha... Appreciation, huh? Thanks, (Captain).
5	✔	Hold on, (Captain)! I recognize these chocolates... They're from that shop that always has a long line out front! These chocolates are supposed to be delicious, so I've always wanted to try 'em at least once... Thank ya kindly! But wasn't it a pain to get 'em? You took time outta your busy schedule to stand in that long line, am I right? Heh... It's to thank me for everythin' I do? I'm the one who outghta be thankin' you though. You're gonna make a old man cry. Thank you so much, (Captain).

White Day Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Today's White Day, isn't it? Here's a little something to pay you back for Valentine's Day! You said you liked these, right? Eugen flashes a big, hearty smile and ruffles (Captain)'s hair.
2	✔	Thanks for the chocolates the other day. I'm not used ta' gettin' and givin' gifts, so my apologies if it ain't what you wanted. And I didn't exactly make it myself, but I'm hopin' it'll mean somethin' to ya all the same. Heheh. Looks like you might take a likin' to it. Whew. In spite of my old age, I do get kinda nervous sometimes. With a sigh of relief, Eugen wipes the sweat off his brow and gently pats (Captain) on the head.
3	✔	I was thinkin' that if I were to give you somethin' for White Day, it should be extra special, (Captain). So I gave it a whole lotta thought, but in the end I wasn't able to come up with nothin'. Let me ask you then—what do you really want? You... wanna go fishin' in Auguste? I mean, I ain't got a problem with that, but are you really sure that's what you want for White Day? Memories are more important than things, you say... Bahaha! Ain't that the truth. Let's go and make us some memories! Eugen bursts out laughing and pats (Captain)'s head.
4	✔	Bahaha! Whaddya think of my White Day gift this year, huh? Whoa now, don't look so shocked! I was pullin' my hair out tryin' to guess what you'd like best... But I just couldn't crack it, so I tried coming at it from a different angle. What was it I wanted to give you? And then the ideas just wouldn't stop comin'! I had to get you this, and that, and the other thing too! Hehe, dunno if it's the wisdom born of age, or what, but when I put this old noggin to it, I can think my way out of a paper bag! Bahaha!
5	✔	Bahaha! How 'bout that, (Captain)? Betcha never expected me of all people to bake you cookies! Heh, that goes for me too. But I thought it was a good chance to give it a try. Once I put my mind to it, it all worked out somehow. They turned out pretty great. Don't worry, I made sure to taste-test them beforehand. They won't make you sick or anythin'. Probably.

Trick or Treat Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	What? Trick or treat? All right, I've got your candy. Hey! No tricks!
2	✔	Hm? Wondering why I seem to have my head in the clouds, are you? Hehe. I finally remembered something, is all. Every year around this time, Apollo would get so excited. Just full of energy, raring to go. I have no idea what she was so happy about, but she wouldn't stop playing pranks on me. She was out for blood. Couldn't let my guard down even for an instant. Every Halloween I felt like my life was on the line! Bahaha... Wait a second. If she was really serious... Yeah. You're right, (Captain). Let's not give it any further thought. This is a precious, beautiful memory shared between me and my daughter, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Hahaha...
3	✔	Keep the pranks to yourself, please. I'm tryin' to take a break over here. Even though I gave out all the treats I could find, all these tricksters keep comin' out of nowhere. Haha! This is worse than a fight with a primal beast!
4	✔	This year, I planned to join the tricksters rather than the trickees... But this is harder than it looks! Where do you all find the energy to run around makin' mischief the way you do? Look, I'll give ya all the candy I've got if you'll help this old dog out with a little backrub... Phew... Who knew Halloween was such a grueling holiday?
5	✔	The Halloween season's here again. I'm gonna avoid goin' all out this year. I don't have the energy to keep up with you youngsters, (Captain). I'm an old man. But I have an idea. Since I can't go it alone, I oughta team up with somebody! So whaddya say, (Captain)? Wanna be my— Oh, c'mon! At least let me finish before ya turn me down! Fine, I give up. That twinkle in your eye says you were lookin' forward to playin' a trick on me. Just go easy on me, ya hear? Those tricks of yours are bad for my health.

Happy Holidays Cutscenes
#	Link	Text
1	✔	Happy holidays to ya! Ah! This here dinner spread is pretty tasty! Wuzzat? I said the same thing last night? There's no shame in havin' a good meal two days in a row, ya know!
2	✔	Heya, (Captain). I've got somethin' I need to ask ya. Have ya got a sec? Ya might not have guessed it, but I've kinda got an eye for sweets. So when ya cut the cake, could ya cut me a piece and bring it later? If Apollo ever saw me doin' that, she'd give me an earful for sure. Gahahah. I'd tell her to give it a rest, but I guess she's just watchin' out for me in her own way.
3	✔	Whoa there... Now that's what I call a cake! What bakery did ya stumble upon? Oho! Don't tell me you made it yourself! Well color me surprised. Incredible... You can just make a cake whenever you're feelin' up to it? You're really somethin', ya know that? I'll do anything I can to help—just make another one!
4	✔	Hey, (Captain). You're gonna decorate a tree this year too, right? Bahaha! I knew it. You always go big on these seasonal customs. So anyway, I broughtcha one. A tree, that is. You can't really enjoy tonight without a tree, now, can ya? What? I'm in way too good a mood? Dummy. When it comes to holidays, he who has the biggest blast wins. Didn't you know? So let's party our hearts out, (Captain)!
5	✔	A snowball fight in this freezin' weather? You youngsters are mighty lively. Sorry, but I'm gonna pass. I don't have any energy when it's this cold. Old guys like me have trouble regulatin' their body temperature. On that note, I think I'll head inside where it's nice an' warm to help with the holiday feast. Huh? Well yeah, 'course I'm lookin' forward to it. This is the night where I get to enjoy top-class grub and booze while admirin' a gorgeous tree. And there's even cake to top it all off. Bahaha! Nothin' beats a holiday feast!

The Old Soldier's Meddling

(Captain) and the crew make a stop in order to repair the Grandcypher. Everyone is enjoying a short break, but Eugen suddenly forces them to venture into the forest.

(Captain) and company are forced to stop to fix the malfunctioning Grandcypher.

While they wait, they enjoy their break from the usual fighting.

Lyria: The weather is so nice today!

Katalina: It sure is. Perhaps we should go for a walk.

Rackam: Yeah. Besides, I can't even fix the ship without the parts.

Rackam: Siero said they'll take two or three days to arrive. I think I'll go take a nap...

Vyrn: That sounds like a great idea. All this sunshine is making me sleepy too.

Io: What's with everyone? Hey, lizard. I want to sleep too, so be my pillow.

Vyrn: Hm? Oh, it's fine! (Captain), you should take it easy too.

Io: And if you were to say that you can't sleep alone, I suppose I could be persuaded to sleep next to you, (Captain)...

Eugen: ...

Eugen: Hey, you guys... You got a minute?

Katalina: What's the matter, Eugen? Are you planning on going somewhere too?

Eugen: Yeah. I'm heading into the forest. And you guys are coming with me.

Vyrn: What? B-but my nap...

Eugen: No buts, Vyrn. Or are you planning to let a feeble old man like me teeter around in the monster-infested woods?

Eugen: Of course you're not! Now hurry up and get ready!

The Old Soldier's Meddling: Scene 2

Eugen is after the wine made by Erunes who live in the forest. As the crew heads to the Erune village, monsters appear before them.

Vyrn: Erune wine? You seriously dragged us out here just for that?

Eugen: Don't be silly! The wine made by the Erunes in this forest is said to be super rare!

Eugen: Since we're here, it'd be daft not to take a few more steps and give it a try.

Katalina: Erune wine is indeed said to be the best in Phantagrande.

Rackam: And we came this far into the woods already. We might as well get a bottle before going back to the ship.

Vyrn: I think I'll take my nap anyway, so can you carry me there, (Captain)? Night night...

Lyria: No sleeping, Vyrn! Monsters are coming!

The Old Soldier's Meddling: Scene 3

Eugen and the others grow ever more excited about the wine. As they get close to the Erune village, monsters attack.

Vyrn: Hah! H-huh?
Where's my mountain of apples?

Eugen: Wake up already, unless you want one of the monsters in this forest to make an apple out of you.

Katalina: So the wine isn't available unless we go this deep into the forest? It must be something else.

Eugen: Yeah. I bet it's definitely worth going for a little stroll in the woods.

Lyria: I wonder what it tastes like. Even I'm starting to look forward to it!

Eugen: Oh no you don't, little lady. Wine's no drink for kids.

Eugen: But don't worry about it. I'm sure the trip will be worth your while.

Eugen: Look! The Erune village is right up ahead!

The Old Soldier's Meddling: Scene 4

Eugen ends up not getting the wine he wanted, but he seems satisfied. He cheerfully reveals that he actually dragged everyone to the Erune village because he thought they were getting lazy and could use the exercise.

Vyrn: What? You don't have any? But we came all the way here...

Erune Man: I'm sorry... We're still making the preparations, so there's nothing to drink.

Lyria: I see... What are we supposed to do now?

Eugen: There's nothing we can do. C'mon, (Captain)! Let's go back!

Vyrn: I don't get it... Why's Eugen so cheerful?

Lyria: I'm not sure... but we should keep up!

Eugen: Wow! Now this is what I call wine!

Vyrn: Hey, Eugen! What's the meaning of this?

Eugen: What? Didn't I tell you? Wine's not for kids.

Eugen: Milk's more your speed, baby lizard.

Vyrn: Don't play dumb! And how many times do I have to tell you I'm not a lizard, old man!

Vyrn: If the Erune wine's available at the Knickknack Shack, why'd we have to go all the way into the woods?

Vyrn: You knew about this all along, didn't you?

Eugen: Of course! The Erune make the wine, but they leave the distribution and sales completely to others.

Vyrn: So why bother with the nature hike?

Eugen: Because you all have been getting lazy recently.

Eugen: So I thought it'd be nice to get you to train by fighting some monsters. First decent exercise you've had in a while, right?

Vyrn: Exercise? Why didn't you just tell us?

Eugen: Ha-ha! If I spoiled the surprise, it wouldn't be any fun!

Eugen: Listen up. Battles can happen at any time.

Eugen: And that makes ambushes ideal for training.

Katalina: Eugen does have a point.

Eugen: Yep. And I'd be more than happy to put you through more training if you ever get lazy again, so you better stay sharp!

After laughing it off, the old soldier gulps down his drink.

As the crew's journey continues, the old soldier always makes sure to provide just the right amount of training.

Family Matters

Eugen and Carren talk about their respective pasts. Not wanting to go into detail about daughter, Apollonia, Eugen shifts the conversation to Carren's relationship with her parents.

It had been some time since Carren had taken advantage of her uncle Eugen's kindness to barge her way onto the Grandcypher.

Eugen was almost certain Carren would give up the skyfaring life sooner or later.

However, her bubbling enthusiasm as of late indicates otherwise. Eugen feels conflicted over the matter.

Eugen: Well, color me impressed... I sure wasn't expecting you to pick up cargo transport jobs while we were on the move.

Carren: Hehe! Why didn't you tell me where we're going? I would've picked up a little more work!

Carren: I mean... There's just not much to do, you know? C'mon. Not a cloud in the sky? No monsters? Boring.

Eugen: Hey, now... Don't go getting too relaxed. You don't always get a warning...

Carren: Yeesh, I got it. Nothing's gonna catch me off guard!

The Grandcypher sails peacefully, still a ways from its destination.

The two stand on the deck, sharing the silence and the view of an endless blue sky.

Carren remembers something that she just has to share.

Carren: Actually... How's Polly doing?

Eugen: Hm? Polly?

Carren: Yeah, Polly. You know? Your kid? Not that I know much about her.

Eugen: Wait... How d'you even know about Apollonia? You sure as heck didn't hear of her from me...

Carren: I dunno... Something about your face reminded me...

Carren: We met once when I was a kid, right?

Carren: And I'm pretty sure I saw a Polly... Can't remember if it was a person or a picture though.

Eugen: Oh? I met you, eh? That had to be ten, maybe fifteen years ago. Went back to see the family and all...

Eugen: Wait a sec! You weren't more than a toddler back then! What were you? One? Two? That's some memory you got there!

Carren: Hah! I knew it! So how's she doing? Good?

Eugen: Er... Well... Probably, I guess...

Eugen: Hmm... what about you? Are you keeping in touch with your folks? You must've written 'em a few times by now?

Carren: Nah, not really. Why would I? They're just gonna tell me to bring my butt back home.

Eugen: Yeah... they were always pretty worried about you. And if they hear you're here with me...

Carren: Hmph! They worry way too much! They nag and nag and nag! It really ticks me off!

Carren: Hehe! Things are so much easier as a skyfarer! Not to mention you wouldn't chew me out unless it's something really big.

Carren: So, uh... is Polly a skyfarer too? Or does she spend her days doing something else?

Eugen: Er... Well, hm... I wonder...

Carren: She's probably out there living free and easy. Must be nice to have cool parents.

Eugen: Hm... y-yeah...

Carren: What? What's with the face?

Eugen: Nothing... I got something in my eye, is all...

Carren: Like, even if I told my parents I was the best skyfarer ever, they'd just be like, "Sure, wait 'til you get into some real trouble..."

Carren: So, Eugen... How do I get them to come around?

Eugen: Haha. Don't ask me. I ain't your dad, kid.

Carren: Hrm...

Eugen: To be honest, I kind of get how they feel.

Eugen: It's one of those things, eh? They live their whole lives on the ground, and their daughter's running off doing who knows what. They're worried, I bet.

Carren: I guess you could say that... But it's not like I'm completely clueless about this lifestyle. I mean, you're doing pretty good yourself.

Eugen: Haha! How about that. You wanna make it as a skyfarer so that your parents will finally accept it, huh?

Eugen: Well, how're they going to do that if you never actually reach out to them?

Carren: Hm... you have a point...

Eugen: Right? You keep that connection open, and you'll both reach some kind of understanding. One day, at least.

Eugen: (I'm one to talk...)

Carren: Hrm. Keep it open, huh...

Carren: I got it! I'll just go ahead and write 'em back!

Eugen: S-sure...

Carren: Wha? You're making that face. Something in your eye again?

Eugen: Nah. It's nothing. Just a little headache, is all...

Because Eugen avoids delving into his own past, Carren has no idea how much pain her uncle has been through.

The old soldier and the girl would continue to travel together, occasionally finding themselves at the mercy of the troubles they carry with them.
