[00:47] ---
Hey, is she all right?
[00:49] ---
You think maybe we should contact Judgment?
[00:53] ---
It really is never dull here in this city.
[00:58] ---
A city that has a general
population of 2.3 million,
[01:01] ---
with fully eighty percent
of them being students,
[01:03] ---
"Academy City Tour Group for
Prospective Entrants Next Year"
[01:04] ---
is what Academy City is.
[01:06] ---
It's what you might call
a giant experimental city,
[01:08] ---
which brings together the
forefront of scientific technology.
[01:12] ---
It is said that there is between
twenty and thirty years' difference
[01:15] ---
between the technology used in
Academy City and everywhere else.
[01:20] ---
So then,
[01:22] ---
what is it that everyone studies here?
[01:24] ---
Esper powers!
[01:26] ---
--I'm going to be a telekineticist!
--I'll be a clairvoyant!
[01:29] ---
Academy City offers a tip-top
public safety system
[01:31] ---
to look after your precious children.
[01:34] ---
Please, rest assured that--
[01:41] ---
Yow-w-w... W-What was that?
[01:44] ---
What in the world...?
[01:46] ---
Th-The signals...
[01:52] ---
Damn!
[01:54] ---
This is not my lucky day!
Who the hell is that?!
[01:57] ---
Hold it right there!
[02:03] ---
Judgment!
[02:05] ---
--Ow-w-w-w-w-w! Ow! Ow!
[02:06] ---
--You're the hoodlum in
the alert, aren't you?
[02:13] ---
Damn.
[02:16] ---
This is Shirai Kuroko.
I've captured one of the criminals.
[02:19] ---
Uiharu, where are the remaining savages?
[02:22] ---
Take the left at the end of that alley,
[02:24] ---
then another left, five meters after that.
[02:26] ---
Copy that!
[02:30] ---
Judgment! We've received alerts on you!
[02:33] ---
Come quietly, or I'll have to...
[02:38] ---
What the...?
[02:46] ---
Oh, Kuroko.
[02:48] ---
Sissy!
[02:58] ---
Unleash the dream I keep in my heart,
leaving even the future behind
[03:04] ---
I don't care about limits;
they're meaningless
[03:07] ---
My power reaches distant feelings,
beyond where light diffuses
[03:19] ---
If looking back along the
road I've been walking down
[03:25] ---
is all I can do, I can break
everything right here and now
[03:32] ---
How much can a person take a stand
when the streets descend into darkness?
[03:39] ---
I'm sure I can protect someone
from the pain picking up steam
[03:46] ---
Looking! The blitz loop this
planet to search way
[03:49] ---
Only my railgun can shoot it right away
[03:53] ---
A surefire hunch racing around
[03:58] ---
my body at the speed of light
[04:00] ---
Take hold of whatever you want,
leaving nothing, with shining individuality
[04:06] ---
I believe in the pledge you made that day
[04:09] ---
Even the tears glistening
in my eyes will turn to strength
[04:23] ---
For goodness' sake,
[04:25] ---
how many times do I have
to say it for it to get through?
[04:28] ---
Maintaining the public safety of Academy City
[04:30] ---
is the work of those of us at Judgment.
[04:33] ---
I cannot have you
outmaneuvering me on your own.
[04:37] ---
Are you listening to me, Sissy?
[04:40] ---
It's not like I can help it, right?
[04:42] ---
I always finish before you guys even show up.
[04:45] ---
When students beat up
others without authorization...
[04:48] ---
...the city fathers look askance.
[04:51] ---
Then you guys should get there sooner.
[04:54] ---
Academy City isn't living up to its name.
[04:57] ---
They've posted security all around the city,
[04:59] ---
but they still can't
eliminate those kinds of fools.
[05:02] ---
They can proclaim the
forefront of science all they want, but...
[05:05] ---
Siss--
[05:08] ---
Chaser!
[05:11] ---
...it doesn't have hardly
anything to do with our lives, does it?
[05:14] ---
Oh, Sissy... Are you still wearing
those dowdy shorts under your skirt?
[05:20] ---
Why were you looking?!
It's easier for me to move like this, and I--

Hmm? Oh, right.

I'll bet my work yesterday
with Judgment is affecting--
[06:47] ---
Things can only end one
way if you make excuses like that,
[06:51] ---
Shirai Kuroko.
[06:52] ---
Kongo Mitsuko...
[06:54] ---
At the rate you're going,
I'll bet that I reach Level 5 first.
[06:58] ---
Hmph. I will thank you not to
lump your abilities in with mine.
[07:04] ---
The differences between
grasping three-dimensional space
[07:06] ---
--and 11-dimensional space are...
[07:07] ---
--I never did enjoy
--and 11-dimensional space are...
[07:08] ---
having you, a first-year student,
acting so high-and-mighty.
[07:12] ---
Listen to me. When I become
the Ace of Tokiwadai--
[07:13] ---
She still refuses to listen to others.
[07:19] ---
--Was that an explosion?
--That was incredibly loud.
[07:22] ---
--W-What was that?
--It came from the pool.
[07:25] ---
Since you transferred
in this year as a second-year,
[07:27] ---
you probably don't know this,
[07:30] ---
but the one having her abilities
tested at the pool right now
[07:33] ---
is the real Ace of Tokiwadai.
[07:37] ---
If they did not use the pool's
water as a buffering material,
[07:40] ---
her destructive powers
could not be accurately measured.
[07:44] ---
Are you prepared to face
one of those blasts head-on?

[08:17] ---
Huh? You heard that all
the way on the school grounds?
[08:20] ---
It was amazingly loud.
[08:21] ---
Everyone was surprised.
[08:24] ---
Good grief, to think that that's the
only way to get an accurate reading.
[08:28] ---
Kuroko, an ability like yours
[08:31] ---
would be much more convenient than mine.
[08:32] ---
The grass always
looks greener on the other side.
[08:35] ---
Yeah, well, that may be so...
[08:38] ---
And say whatever you will,
[08:39] ---
Sissy, you are Tokiwadai's Ace.
[08:42] ---
You can thrust out your chest with pride.
[08:44] ---
Ace, you say?
[08:46] ---
But, then again...
[08:50] ---
...this chest is a bit too
modest and bashful to be thrust out.
[08:55] ---
Oh, but it is this very modesty
that is your wickedness, Sissy.
[08:59] ---
This elegant, yet seductive
temptation is enough for my...
[09:04] ---
...for my heart to break!
[09:07] ---
You're broken to begin with!
[09:10] ---
It was just a little skinship.
[09:12] ---
Shut up!
[09:24] ---
--Let's see...
[09:25] ---
--U-i-ha-ru!!
--Let's see...
[09:27] ---
--U-i-ha-ru!!
[09:34] ---
Today, you're sporting light
pink polka-dots, huh?
[09:39] ---
W-What do you think you're
doing, Miss Saten?!
[09:41] ---
Oh, such formality with a classmate.
[09:44] ---
As polite and formal as ever, I see.
[09:46] ---
Here, once more, just to
develop our friendship.
[09:53] ---
You are awful.
[09:54] ---
Sorry, sorry, I got carried away.
[09:57] ---
Want to see my panties, to get even?
[09:58] ---
No, thank you! Geez, Miss Saten...
[10:01] ---
Oh, come to think of it, how did it go?
[10:04] ---
How did what go?
[10:05] ---
Isn't that obvious? Your System Scan.
[10:08] ---
Oh... An absolute disaster.
Level 1, same as ever.
[10:13] ---
The same level as I've
been since grade school.
[10:16] ---
My homeroom teacher even said,
[10:18] ---
"Are those flowers on
your head just for show?
[10:20] ---
Use the full blooming power of those flowers
[10:21] ---
to make your own power rating blossom, too!"
[10:24] ---
Uh, there's so much in
your homeroom teacher's lecture
[10:27] ---
that I could make jokes about,
but anyhow, cheer up, okay?
[10:32] ---
Even at Level 1, you're fine.
[10:35] ---
I'm a Level 0-- an incompetent.
[10:41] ---
But not to worry about that.
[10:44] ---
As long as I enjoy myself every day,
everything's okay.
[10:49] ---
Miss Saten...
[10:51] ---
Here, listen to this and cheer up.
[10:55] ---
It's Hitotsui Hajime! Is this...?
[10:57] ---
I downloaded a pre-release song of his.
[10:59] ---
The album that contains
this song goes on sale today.
[11:02] ---
Do you buy the CD, even after downloading it?
[11:06] ---
It's winning these kickoff
limited release 100-name-drawing
[11:09] ---
premium goods that's the
mark of a true fan, you know!
[11:13] ---
And so, let's go there, together, to buy it!
[11:15] ---
But I have to go see Miss
Shirai Kuroko today.
[11:19] ---
Shirai? You mean Shirai
Kuroko, from Judgment?
[11:22] ---
My fondest wish, to be introduced
to Miss Misaka, is coming true.
[11:27] ---
One of only seven Level 5s
in all of Academy City,
[11:30] ---
the Ace of Tokiwadai, Miss Misaka Mikoto!
[11:33] ---
Tokiwadai's Level 5?
[11:36] ---
I'll bet she's just another
one of those jerkwads
[11:38] ---
who flaunt their ability
while looking down on you.
[11:40] ---
No, she's not.
[11:42] ---
I mean, those people all treat
everyone beneath them with contempt.
[11:46] ---
They disgust me.
[11:48] ---
--What's worse, she's the
darling of Tokiwadai.
[11:51] ---
Isn't it nice that she's a "darling"?!
[11:53] ---
No, in fact, it's that much
nicer because she's a darling!
[11:56] ---
Hey, you're just starry-eyed
over seeing a celebrity, aren't you?
[12:00] ---
Th-That's not true. And by the way,
[12:03] ---
the fact that I come from
Nishi-Kasai has nothing to do with it.
[12:07] ---
Say, given the occasion,
Miss Saten, why don't you come along?
[12:09] ---
I-I don't really...
[12:11] ---
It's okay, it's okay.
[12:13] ---
Okay, maybe, but... hey!
[12:15] ---
You don't get a chance like this very often!
[12:17] ---
Hold on a second! Uiharu!
[12:19] ---
#1 Electromaster
[12:23] ---
One of my fans?
[12:25] ---
She is in charge of my backup
at Judgment's 177th Branch.
[12:31] ---
She is always asking to
meet you, Sissy, if even just once.
[12:37] ---
Sissy, I am aware that nowadays,
the behavior of your fans
[12:40] ---
can be somewhat annoying.
However, Uiharu is a reasonable, polite girl.
[12:48] ---
Besides, she's one of the
few girls that I will call a friend,
[12:52] ---
so I'm asking on my behalf.
[12:54] ---
Of course, to keep your
stress to a minimum, Sissy,
[12:58] ---
I have neatly arranged the
schedule for today--
[13:01] ---
Hey!
[13:02] ---
What have we here?
"Date Plan with Sissy using Uiharu as a ruse.
[13:07] ---
Part 1: Foster friendship
at a family restaurant
[13:09] ---
Part 2: Lingerie shop
(purchase "big moment" underwear)
[13:12] ---
Part 3: Shopping at an aroma shop
(purchase aphrodisiac)
[13:15] ---
Part 4: Ditch Uiharu
[13:16] ---
Part 5: Go to hotel with Sissy"
[13:19] ---
In other words, you're using
your reasonable, polite friend
[13:23] ---
--to fulfill your perverted desires.
[13:24] ---
--No
[13:26] ---
--Just reading this has built up
[13:26] ---
--Um...
[13:28] ---
a tremendous amount of stress!
[13:30] ---
Ow-w-w-w! You've got it all wrong, Sissy…
[13:37] ---
Well, even so...
[13:39] ---
...she's your friend, Kuroko.
What choice is there?
[13:42] ---
Si--
[13:44] ---
--Sissy!
[13:46] ---
--Whoa, Kuroko...!
[13:47] ---
Sissy, I did not know that
that is how you felt about me!
[13:50] ---
--I could just... just... go crazy!
[13:52] ---
--Miss...?
[13:53] ---
--Ah, Sissy, my heart is about to burst!
[13:55] ---
--I'm terribly sorry,
[13:56] ---
--but you're disturbing the other customers.
[14:02] ---
And with that out of the way,
allow me to do the introductions.
[14:05] ---
This is Uiharu Kazari,
first-year at Sakugawa Middle School.
[14:10] ---
P-Pleased to meet you. I am Uiharu Kazari.
[14:14] ---
And this is...
[14:15] ---
Hi there. I'm Uiharu's
classmate, Saten Ruiko.
[14:19] ---
I'm tagging alone with her,
but I couldn't tell you why.
[14:22] ---
By the way, my power rating is Level 0.
[14:26] ---
--M-Miss Saten, how can you just...
[14:27] ---
--Miss Uiharu and Miss Saten.
[14:30] ---
I'm Misaka Mikoto. Nice to meet you.
[14:34] ---
N-Nice to meet you.
[14:36] ---
It is a pleasure.
[14:37] ---
Now that introductions
have been made without incident,
[14:40] ---
and though the timetable
has been thrown off somewhat,
[14:43] ---
I have neatly arranged a schedule for today--
[14:46] ---
Sheesh.
[14:48] ---
Well, standing around here
isn't going to get us anywhere.
[14:51] ---
How about first, we go to the game center?
[14:55] ---
The game center?
[14:57] ---
Come on, Kuroko, we're going.
[15:04] ---
My word, Sissy...
[15:07] ---
Rather than playing
games or browsing magazines,
[15:09] ---
you should have hobbies
more fitting for someone like you,
[15:12] ---
--such as flowers, or the harp.
[15:14] ---
--Here you go.
--such as flowers, or the harp.
[15:15] ---
Buzz off. How are tea ceremonies
and the harp more like me?
[15:21] ---
You know something?
[15:22] ---
She's not at all a darling, is she?
[15:25] ---
And she doesn't look down on us. either.
[15:28] ---
What's that?
[15:29] ---
It looks like there's a new crepe stand.
[15:29] ---
"Crepe Palace Rablm"
[15:32] ---
It says that the first hundred customers
[15:33] ---
get a free Gekota mascot present.
[15:36] ---
What a chintzy-looking character.
[15:38] ---
Who would go for something
like that these days?
[15:41] ---
Excuse me...
[15:43] ---
Miss Misaka...?
[15:44] ---
What is the matter, Sissy?
[15:46] ---
Oh, are you interested in
the crepe stand? Or perhaps...
[15:51] ---
...are you interested in any
free giveaway you can find?
[15:54] ---
W-What are you talking about?!
I-I don't care about any "Gekota."
[15:59] ---
I mean, he's a frog. An amphibian.
[16:01] ---
In what world are girls
thrilled to get a prize like...
[16:16] ---
Wow... Look at all the people.
[16:20] ---
Why are there so many little children?
[16:23] ---
Our break is only one hour!
Please do not go too far away!
[16:28] ---
It looks like our timing is just unlucky.
[16:31] ---
I will go save us a bench.
[16:33] ---
Oh, then I'll come, too.
[16:35] ---
Miss Saten, would you get
something for us, as well?
[16:39] ---
--We will pay you back afterward!
[16:40] ---
--Huh? Wait--
[16:44] ---
Hmm? What?
[16:45] ---
Nothing.
[16:47] ---
Um, care to switch places?
[16:50] ---
I-I don't care who's first.
[16:52] ---
--As long as I can buy a crepe, I'm good...
[16:53] ---
--All right! I got a Gekota!
[16:56] ---
Me too! Me too!
[16:58] ---
Thank you for waiting.
[17:00] ---
Here you go.
[17:02] ---
It's the last one.
[17:03] ---
Thanks. Wait, huh? Last one?
[17:09] ---
U-Um...
[17:13] ---
If you want it, here.
[17:16] ---
You're sure?! You really mean it?!
[17:17] ---
Y-Yeah...
[17:19] ---
Thank you!
[17:21] ---
S-Sure...
[17:28] ---
Come on, Sissy, do not be shy.
[17:31] ---
I said I didn't want any!
[17:32] ---
Who chooses natto beans
and fresh cream as toppings?!
[17:35] ---
--Come on! Come on!
--I said quit it!
[17:37] ---
It's nice, isn't it?
[17:39] ---
About Miss Misaka. She doesn't
have the vibe of being a "darling,"
[17:43] ---
and she is much more
approachable than I expected.
[17:49] ---
I'm not too sure...
[17:54] ---
Here.
[17:56] ---
Huh?
[17:57] ---
Want a taste? Have a bite,
as a thanks for earlier.
[18:01] ---
Sissy!
[18:02] ---
Sissy, do you mean that
even though I am right here,
[18:04] ---
you would prefer an indirect
kiss from Miss Saten?!
[18:06] ---
I don't think I can keep
up with your friends.
[18:12] ---
Oh, I was just noticing that bank.
[18:16] ---
Why would the security shutters
be down in the middle of the day?
[18:27] ---
W-What was that?
[18:28] ---
Uiharu, contact Antiskill and
see if anyone is hurt! Please hurry!
[18:33] ---
R-Right!
[18:34] ---
Kuroko!
[18:34] ---
No you don't, Sissy.
[18:36] ---
Maintaining the public safety of Academy City
[18:38] ---
is a job for those of us in Judgment.
[18:41] ---
This time, please be sure to behave yourself.
[18:44] ---
Yes, that's correct.
There's a bank robbery in progress
[18:46] ---
across from the public
square on the edge of District 7.
[18:49] ---
Requesting Antiskill to this location.
[18:53] ---
Come on, get the lead out!
[18:54] ---
--Move it, or...
[18:55] ---
--Hold it!
[18:58] ---
Judgment! You're under arrest
for destruction of property
[19:03] ---
and bank robbery.
[19:11] ---
What's with this little kid?
[19:13] ---
Is Judgment short on staff?
[19:16] ---
Hey, little lady,
go find somewhere else to be,
[19:20] ---
or you're gonna get hurt!
[19:22] ---
With a flunky line like that...
[19:28] ---
...you're marked for death.
[19:30] ---
Wha--?
[19:31] ---
Why, you...!
[19:32] ---
Amazing!
[19:33] ---
That's Kuroko for you.
[19:34] ---
No, you can't! If you leave the square now...
[19:37] ---
But...
[19:38] ---
What's wrong?
[19:39] ---
Well, you see...
[19:40] ---
We're missing one of our boys!
[19:43] ---
He said he left something on
the bus a moment ago.
[19:47] ---
Okay, Uiharu and I will--
[19:49] ---
I'm coming, too!
[19:53] ---
All right. Let's split up and look for him.
[19:58] ---
It's too late for second thoughts now.
[20:01] ---
--Now that you've gotten me upset,
--A pyrokineticist? Geez...
[20:03] ---
I'll reduce you to ashes--
[20:06] ---
--You're not running away!
--Hey, watch it!
[20:09] ---
Who says...
[20:10] ---
--She disappeared!
[20:11] ---
--...I'm running away?
--She disappeared!
[20:24] ---
A t-teleporter?!
[20:26] ---
If you resist any further,
[20:28] ---
I'll teleport this next
one directly inside your body.
[20:35] ---
Find anything?!
[20:36] ---
No, nothing!
[20:37] ---
Geez, where did he go?!
[20:41] ---
Hey, who are you?!
[20:43] ---
Perfect timing! You're coming with me!
[20:45] ---
Hey, mister, who are you?
[20:47] ---
Never mind, just come with me! Now!
[20:49] ---
I've gotta do something.
[20:53] ---
Maybe we should look
around the square again--
[20:55] ---
Wah! What do you want?! Let me go!
[20:58] ---
No!
[20:59] ---
Damn it!
[21:05] ---
Miss Saten!
[21:06] ---
Kuroko!
[21:10] ---
From here on, this fight is personal for me.
[21:14] ---
I hate to do this,
[21:15] ---
but I have to get involved.
[21:20] ---
I just remembered! If you're
caught by Judgment, you're done for,
[21:23] ---
thanks to a worst-case teleporter
who will trample you body and soul,
[21:25] ---
such that you'll never get up again!
[21:27] ---
Who are you talking about?
[21:29] ---
Damn it!
[21:30] ---
Like I'm gonna turn tail and run!
[21:34] ---
In addition, the teleporter's
heart and soul are held captive
[21:37] ---
by a powerful electromaster!
[21:41] ---
If that's how you want it,
I'm taking you out, too!
[21:45] ---
Yes.
[21:46] ---
That girl there is the cream of the
23 million people in Academy City.
[21:52] ---
Third-ranked among the seven Level 5s...
[22:07] ---
...Railgun, Misaka Mikoto, my Sissy.
[22:11] ---
Pride of Tokiwadai Middle School,
[22:14] ---
the ultimate, unstoppable shock princess.
[22:30] ---
In--
[22:31] ---
Incredible...
[22:42] ---
Zero injuries among
the general population. Also...
[22:45] ---
P-Please, keep walking.
[22:50] ---
Your ability was not half-bad.
[22:53] ---
Right around Level 3, I would say.
[22:57] ---
It looks like you got caught up
in the exhilaration of your ability,
[22:59] ---
and chose the wrong path.
[23:01] ---
Please, go take a hard look at yourself,
[23:04] ---
and then make a fresh start of things.
[23:10] ---
Really, thank you so very much.
[23:13] ---
No... not at all...
[23:15] ---
I don't know what I can say to thank you.
[23:17] ---
Come on, you, too.
[23:19] ---
Thank you, lady.
[23:33] ---
That was nicely handled, Saten.
[23:35] ---
Huh?
[23:37] ---
It was awfully heroic of you.
[23:43] ---
--You, too, Miss Misaka--
[23:44] ---
--Sissy!
--You, too, Miss Misaka--
[23:46] ---
--Hey, Kuroko! Stop clinging to me!
[23:47] ---
--Miss Saten!
--Hey, Kuroko! Stop clinging to me!
[23:49] ---
Are you hurt badly?
[23:51] ---
I'm fine, I'm fine.
[23:52] ---
Really?
[23:54] ---
--Cut it out, Kuroko!
[23:54] ---
--Misaka was awfully heroic.
--Cut it out, Kuroko!
[23:58] ---
--Misaka was awfully heroic.
--Knock it off, already!
[24:00] ---
Dear my friend
[24:02] ---
Every day & night Always be with you
[24:08] ---
Dear my friend
[24:09] ---
Every day & night Always be with you
[24:16] ---
We're still talking as sunset colors the city
[24:23] ---
and yet it doesn't feel like enough
[24:31] ---
Before we knew it,
we were crying together
[24:38] ---
that things weren't going our way
[24:46] ---
Love and dreams and flowers
and rainbows and breezes--
[24:49] ---
let's grab them all
[24:52] ---
It's all right! Cheer up
[24:56] ---
I'm right here by your side
[25:00] ---
Rather than lament today's
mistakes, overcome them now
[25:07] ---
It's all right! Don't hesitate
[25:11] ---
Let's face the yet-unseen future
[25:17] ---
and keep on walking
[25:22] ---
Every day & night
Always be with you
[25:30] ---
My icon, Miss Misaka, was pretty cool.
[25:31] ---
#2 When Working Under a Hot Sun,
Rehydration is Essential
[25:32] ---
She sure was.
[25:33] ---
Miss Saten, please don't pour
water on my head.
[25:36] ---
But your flowers are going to wither.
[25:37] ---
Things will heat up next week, too.
[25:41] ---
