**[00:23] ---**
Huh?!
**[00:26] ---**
What is it with this thing?
**[00:28] ---**
Is that...
**[00:30] ---**
You're a cutie. Whoo!
And from Tokiwadai, at that.
**[00:35] ---**
Wanna come with
us and have a little fun?
**[00:37] ---**
We'll take you home.
No telling when that will be, though.
**[00:45] ---**
These guys are idiots
for talking to me. And sure,
**[00:51] ---**
it's not like those guys
are without pity. I can tell that.
**[00:55] ---**
And really, it's not like they could
cut in here and do something.
**[00:59] ---**
They'd just get hurt.
**[01:00] ---**
What are you looking at?
**[01:01] ---**
Everyone has to look out
for themselves. That's normal.
**[01:04] ---**
And supposing there is someone
who would do so for a stranger,
**[01:08] ---**
then that person is just a fool.
**[01:10] ---**
Oh, there you are!
**[01:11] ---**
Hey, thanks for keeping her company.
**[01:14] ---**
You know you shouldn't wander off like that.
**[01:20] ---**
That's strange...
**[01:23] ---**
I don't suppose there's
any chance it's out of order.
**[01:26] ---**
Seriously?
**[03:00] ---**
Hey, come on, give me a break.
Give me back my money!
**[03:04] ---**
Hey, there!
**[03:07] ---**
Don't just stand there like an idiot.
**[03:09] ---**
If you're not buying anything,
then stand aside!
**[03:11] ---**
Eh? Huh? I am...
**[03:12] ---**
I have to rehydrate as soon as possible,
**[03:16] ---**
or I'm going to just fall apart.
**[03:25] ---**
So, what's with you, pal?
**[03:28] ---**
I do have...
**[03:33] ---**
...a name--Misaka Mikoto!
**[03:35] ---**
Remember it already, you idiot!
**[03:42] ---**
I see things are as messed up as ever.
**[03:45] ---**
How is it that my shocks don't work on you?
**[03:48] ---**
I don't know! And *you* shouldn't
go using your ability without warning!
**[03:52] ---**
Well, anyhow, if you're not going
to buy anything, I'll go ahead.
**[03:56] ---**
I've got some serious business
with this vending machine.
**[03:59] ---**
Uh, about this vending machine...
**[04:02] ---**
It tends to eat your money.
I, Kamijo Toma,
**[04:05] ---**
had what little
money that was on me--
**[04:06] ---**
Did you get yoinked?
**[04:08] ---**
Eh? Did you really get yoinked?
How much did you get taken for?
**[04:15] ---**
¥2000.
**[04:16] ---**
¥2000?! You mean
you used a ¥2000 bill?!
**[04:21] ---**
Well of *course* a vending
machine will munch that!
**[04:29] ---**
I got a really good laugh out of that,
**[04:31] ---**
so I'll get it back for you.
**[04:34] ---**
Eh?
**[04:34] ---**
I mean, this thing
once took ¥10,000 of mine...
**[04:39] ---**
Hmm?
**[04:40] ---**
Nothing. I'm just saying,
I'm going to get your money's worth
**[04:44] ---**
for everything this
thing took from you.
**[04:46] ---**
Um, the only feeling I'm
getting about this is a bad one...
**[04:55] ---**
Thank you for waiting.
**[04:57] ---**
Thanks.
**[04:59] ---**
Is that right?
**[05:01] ---**
Same old Miss Misaka as ever, huh?
**[05:03] ---**
Yes.
**[05:04] ---**
I had made up my mind to
believe in Sissy, and wait for her, too.
**[05:09] ---**
If Sissy were to
see me looking like this,
**[05:11] ---**
I would instead be
the one worrying her.
**[05:18] ---**
I am just hopeless, am I not?
**[05:22] ---**
She went out every night
without eating anything,
**[05:26] ---**
not to mention being unable
to provide any details
**[05:28] ---**
to Shirai or either of us.
**[05:30] ---**
I refrained from coming out and
saying anything, but sure enough,
**[05:36] ---**
a boy... is the only explanation.
**[05:38] ---**
A b--b--b--
**[05:41] ---**
I tell you, that is not it--
**[05:42] ---**
Then, the reason Miss Misaka
has been acting strangely is...
**[05:45] ---**
Exactly. She's lovestruck.
**[05:48] ---**
Th-That's it! Indeed, she could not
turn to any of us for advice,
**[05:53] ---**
and there is plenty of
reason to keep it a secret!
**[05:56] ---**
I know, right?
**[05:57] ---**
But since we're talking
about Miss Misaka here,
**[06:01] ---**
I'm sure he must be a gentleman
as handsome as a prince.
**[06:05] ---**
Oh, no, I think Misaka is the
type that is attracted to someone
**[06:08] ---**
who sees her as the only girl for him.
**[06:12] ---**
Ah!
**[06:13] ---**
Then again, since she doesn't come
home every night until morning...
**[06:16] ---**
You don't think Miss Misaka is...!
**[06:22] ---**
What's the matter, Uiharu?
**[06:23] ---**
Th-There is no way...
Not Sissy, of all people...
**[06:28] ---**
An alarm?
**[06:30] ---**
Whoa, you're quick to react.
**[06:31] ---**
That...
**[06:33] ---**
...is a vending machine alarm, isn't it?
**[06:36] ---**
Miss Shirai?
**[06:37] ---**
The vending machine
in that area? Could it be?
**[06:41] ---**
Um, Miss Shirai?
**[06:43] ---**
I will go check it out.
**[06:45] ---**
Huh? Okay, I'll come, too.
**[06:46] ---**
No, if anything happens, I will contact you.
**[06:47] ---**
Huh? Wait...
**[06:52] ---**
Hey, wait up!
**[06:59] ---**
It's... hopeless...
**[07:02] ---**
Geez...
**[07:03] ---**
Why are you running away?
**[07:05] ---**
I got out everything that
machine owed you, you know.
**[07:09] ---**
Well, I didn't really...
**[07:13] ---**
These belong to you
in the first place, right?
**[07:15] ---**
If I accept this,
I become an accomplice, don't I?
**[07:18] ---**
Here.
**[07:18] ---**
There's more where that came from.
**[07:20] ---**
Whoa! Hold on! Hold on! Ow!
Hey, there are hot ones mixed in!
**[07:26] ---**
I couldn't help it, you know.
**[07:28] ---**
I can't choose the kind of
drink that comes out, after all.
**[07:32] ---**
And as for you,
**[07:34] ---**
as strong as you are,
you run away too much.
**[07:36] ---**
And since I lost to you,
where does that leave me?
**[07:40] ---**
Eh? What did you just say?
**[07:43] ---**
Both in town and
out on the riverbed,
**[07:45] ---**
you've toyed around with
me time and again, haven't you?!
**[07:48] ---**
I-I've been getting into
fights with a middle-school girl?
**[07:51] ---**
Sheesh, as intense as it got,
**[07:54] ---**
I'm not going to let you get
away with saying you've forgotten!
**[07:56] ---**
What have I been doing?
**[07:59] ---**
Whatever, just drink something.
**[08:01] ---**
If my underclassman got a present
from me, she'd swoon and faint.
**[08:05] ---**
What does that mean?
**[08:07] ---**
This isn't some girl's manga,
**[08:09] ---**
and things like that
don't happen in girls' schools.
**[08:11] ---**
Hmph, wishful thinking.
**[08:13] ---**
You're only able to say that
**[08:14] ---**
because you don't know
what they call me at Tokiwadai.
**[08:17] ---**
Sissy!
**[08:19] ---**
I heard a vending machine alarm
and came running, and here you are!
**[08:22] ---**
Ugh, speak of the devil...
**[08:28] ---**
What?
**[08:31] ---**
What's the matter, Kuro--
**[08:33] ---**
Hey, what's wrong with you?!
**[08:35] ---**
It cannot be... No way... It is true...!
**[08:38] ---**
A rendezvous with a gentleman caller!
**[08:40] ---**
Now just a minute!
**[08:44] ---**
Pleased to meet you, gentleman caller.
**[08:46] ---**
Eh? What?!
**[08:48] ---**
I ride shotgun for Sissy,
and am her one-and-only partner,
**[08:51] ---**
Shirai Kuroko.
**[08:54] ---**
Since you appear to be
an acquaintance of Sissy's,
**[08:56] ---**
I will pay my respects,
out of social etiquette.
**[09:00] ---**
S-Sure.
**[09:01] ---**
I do have to say,
**[09:04] ---**
he is an undistinguished
gentleman caller, huh?
**[09:07] ---**
Is someone like him really with Sissy?
**[09:11] ---**
Oh, dear, if this is all it takes
for him to fall into a flutter,
**[09:15] ---**
there is a risk of him
having flirtatious tendencies.
**[09:19] ---**
Now, look, you...
**[09:22] ---**
Does this geekwad look
like my boyfriend?!
**[09:28] ---**
W-What?!
**[09:30] ---**
No, of course not.
I thought it sounded strange.
**[09:34] ---**
Come on! Get back down here!
**[09:37] ---**
Then again,
**[09:39] ---**
as much as I would like you to
wash your hands of this troglodyte
**[09:42] ---**
and allow me to escort you, Sissy,
**[09:46] ---**
as long as you have absolutely
no immunity to your gentleman caller,
**[09:49] ---**
I fear that later on, you may
be drawn to rather unsavory men.
**[09:52] ---**
On that point, I doubt I have anything to fear
**[09:55] ---**
from this completely harmless monkey.
**[09:57] ---**
On top of which, if you become
disillusioned with men in general,
**[10:01] ---**
seeing as how geeky he is,
I will be there to console you, Sissy...
**[10:07] ---**
Besides...
**[10:07] ---**
Hey, are you listening to me, Kuroko?!
**[10:11] ---**
You do seem to be happy again.
**[10:14] ---**
Hey, are you listening?!
**[10:16] ---**
There is nothing more I can do,
so I will take my leave,
**[10:20] ---**
but please take care not to
make any missteps, okay, Sissy?
**[10:23] ---**
Hey, what are you talking about?!
**[10:24] ---**
And, with that...
**[10:26] ---**
She disappeared!
**[10:28] ---**
Make an outburst like that
and then run away on me, will she?
**[10:32] ---**
So there really are people
who use the term "Sissy" in real life.
**[10:36] ---**
Leave it to Tokiwadai Middle School.
**[10:38] ---**
Her case is kind of a special one.
**[10:41] ---**
Oh, it is?
**[10:47] ---**
Oh, man! Seriously,
what did I even come here for?
**[10:50] ---**
Sissy?
**[10:52] ---**
Eh? She's back--huh?!
There's another Zapper?!
**[10:58] ---**
"If our appearances look the same,
**[11:01] ---**
it is only natural, since we
are identical on a genetic level,"
**[11:04] ---**
says Misaka in reply.
**[11:07] ---**
Huh? Genetic?
A-Ah, you're twins, huh?
**[11:13] ---**
Moments ago, I identified
a power identical to Misaka's,
**[11:16] ---**
so I came by to see,
**[11:18] ---**
but here at the site,
there was a broken vending machine,
**[11:21] ---**
and seeing you here with
that large number of drinks...
**[11:24] ---**
Sissy, don't tell me that you
were an accomplice in stealing from it.
**[11:27] ---**
Hey, your sister is the main culprit!
I'm an innocent bystander!
**[11:31] ---**
As a result of Misaka gauging
the vending machine with her ability,
**[11:35] ---**
the most recent fingerprints did belong to you.
**[11:39] ---**
You're kidding!
You can even tell that much?!
**[11:41] ---**
I'm kidding.
**[11:41] ---**
You're kidding?!
**[11:43] ---**
Just what are they
teaching this sister of yours?!
**[11:50] ---**
Why...?
**[11:53] ---**
Why are you...?!
**[11:59] ---**
Why are you wandering around here?
**[12:04] ---**
I am training.
**[12:07] ---**
Train--
**[12:11] ---**
Training? Did you join Judgment,
or something?
**[12:15] ---**
Judgment?
**[12:17] ---**
Oh, yeah, that's what this is.
**[12:19] ---**
Come here for a second.
**[12:20] ---**
But Misaka has a schedule to...
**[12:23] ---**
It's okay!
**[12:25] ---**
Come with me.
**[12:30] ---**
Maybe they're just...
a complex family.
**[12:35] ---**
Sissy, how far are we going to go?
**[12:39] ---**
Misaka's schedule is already
off by thirty-eight seconds...
**[12:46] ---**
The experiment...
**[12:48] ---**
The project was shut down,
wasn't it? So why...?
**[12:52] ---**
"By 'project,'
**[12:54] ---**
if you are referring
to Project Level 6 Shift,
**[12:57] ---**
then it is proceeding on schedule,"
**[12:59] ---**
replies Misaka.
**[13:01] ---**
No way! Even... now?
**[13:05] ---**
Yes. Experiment 10020 was just held.
**[13:12] ---**
Ten... thousand...?
**[13:15] ---**
What is she saying?
No... How...?
**[13:20] ---**
I thought they pulled everything out...
**[13:24] ---**
How are they...?
**[13:25] ---**
What is happening?
I don't understand.
**[13:29] ---**
I don't understand,
but they're being killed again.
**[13:34] ---**
No, that's not true!
**[13:37] ---**
I'm the one... who killed them.
**[13:41] ---**
She...
**[13:43] ---**
...will soon also...
**[13:47] ---**
Sissy?
**[13:54] ---**
Are you all--
**[14:00] ---**
Wow! How cute!
**[14:02] ---**
"Misaka found her," says Misaka,
trumpeting her achievement.
**[14:07] ---**
What do I do? What more...
**[14:11] ---**
...can I do?
**[14:13] ---**
Sissy...
**[14:15] ---**
Sissy, there's a kiddy-kitty.
**[14:16] ---**
Sissy...
**[14:22] ---**
Stop it!
**[14:27] ---**
Stop it...
**[14:29] ---**
Stop appearing before me...
sounding like that...
**[14:33] ---**
...and looking like that!
**[14:40] ---**
Okay.
**[14:41] ---**
Please excuse me.
**[15:05] ---**
This is the pits.
**[15:08] ---**
Th--
**[15:09] ---**
These are heavy. Still and all,
**[15:12] ---**
what was that with them back there?
**[15:17] ---**
Yowch...!
**[15:20] ---**
Man, just my luck.
**[15:22] ---**
"I can lend you a hand, if you need it,"
**[15:24] ---**
is what Misaka suggests with a sigh.
**[15:28] ---**
You...
**[15:29] ---**
Oh, you're her younger sister.
**[15:33] ---**
Huh? But didn't your sister
take you away somewhere earlier?
**[15:37] ---**
"Misaka just came from there,"
she says, pointing.
**[15:42] ---**
"Where should we
carry these drinks to,"
**[15:45] ---**
asks Misaka.
**[15:48] ---**
Oh, uh, that's okay.
I can carry them by myself.
**[15:55] ---**
#11 "Where should we carry these drinks to,"
**[15:56] ---**
Misaka prods.
**[16:06] ---**
Hello.
**[16:07] ---**
What's wrong? You look
awfully flushed, Doctor Amai.
**[16:15] ---**
Don't "Hello" me!
**[16:16] ---**
What is the meaning of
handing off to this many facilities?!
**[16:18] ---**
*We're* taking the lead on Level 6 Shift!
**[16:22] ---**
If you scatter it around like this,
the patent will never be...
**[16:25] ---**
Now, now, take it easy.
**[16:26] ---**
There will still be plenty of profit,
**[16:28] ---**
even after dividing it up this much.
**[16:30] ---**
How can you know that?!
**[16:33] ---**
Oh, I know.
**[16:34] ---**
Right now, what's most important
is completing the experiments.
**[16:41] ---**
There are 183 transferee
facilities in total.
**[16:45] ---**
If that breaks our mysterious
attacker's spirit, then good.
**[16:50] ---**
And even if the attacks keep going,
**[16:52] ---**
the more these facilities are destroyed,
**[16:55] ---**
the greater our share of
the profit becomes, doesn't it?
**[17:00] ---**
183...
**[17:05] ---**
How did it get to be so
many in this short a time?
**[17:10] ---**
This is a level far greater
than any single firm could manage.
**[17:16] ---**
I'm... an idiot.
**[17:19] ---**
I wonder why I didn't realize it.
**[17:22] ---**
Academy City is constantly
under satellite and camera surveillance.
**[17:27] ---**
There is no way that Academy City's
senior management is unaware
**[17:32] ---**
that these inhuman experiments
are repeatedly being done out of doors.
**[17:37] ---**
In other words,
**[17:38] ---**
Academy City as a whole...
**[17:41] ---**
...is my foe?
**[17:59] ---**
Ugh, that's nasty, all right.
**[18:06] ---**
Do you have a moment?
**[18:09] ---**
Huh?
**[18:12] ---**
Which laboratory's errand boy are you?
**[18:14] ---**
What makes you think that?
**[18:16] ---**
Anyone who comes
near me is always some guy,
**[18:18] ---**
trying to milk me
for some kind of analysis,
**[18:21] ---**
or some idiot, out to claim the
throne of Academy City's top dog.
**[18:27] ---**
Mm-hmm, I see.
**[18:30] ---**
And, in the sense that
both of them are full of crap,
**[18:33] ---**
there's not all that much difference.
**[18:36] ---**
Level 6 Shift?
**[18:39] ---**
Yeah. An experiment with
Tree Diagram's endorsement.
**[18:42] ---**
Ha! Not interested.
**[18:44] ---**
I'm the first-ranked in Academy City,
**[18:47] ---**
meaning that I'm already
at the top of the world.
**[18:50] ---**
Come who may, and do
what they will, nobody can beat me.
**[18:55] ---**
Even if I do become stronger
than I am now, what's that to me?
**[18:59] ---**
Yeah, you're right.
You are indeed the mightiest esper.
**[19:04] ---**
However, if you top out at "mightiest,"
**[19:06] ---**
then the circumstances that surround you
**[19:08] ---**
will always remain the same.
**[19:13] ---**
But then,
**[19:15] ---**
if you had an absolute power,
past that of "mightiest,"
**[19:19] ---**
it just might bring about
some changes in your life.
**[19:31] ---**
Past "mightiest," he says?
**[19:41] ---**
Thank you for coming.
**[19:55] ---**
Mass-production of clones,
in violation of international law, eh?
**[19:58] ---**
You guys have got screws loose
in your heads in just the right way.
**[20:02] ---**
Originally,
**[20:04] ---**
they were planned for use in another project,
**[20:07] ---**
but things happen, and they
ended up being diverted to us.
**[20:12] ---**
Looking at this,
**[20:14] ---**
would you still like to achieve Level 6?
**[20:22] ---**
Another 9970 to go, huh?
**[20:27] ---**
What a drag.
**[20:30] ---**
Sissy!
**[20:31] ---**
The bathroom is available.
**[20:34] ---**
Mm-hmm, thanks.
**[20:37] ---**
Sissy was in such
good spirits this afternoon...
**[20:43] ---**
D-D-Do not tell me something
happened with that troglodyte!
**[20:47] ---**
He shall pay for this!
**[20:53] ---**
What do I do?
**[20:55] ---**
Do I have any other moves left?
**[20:58] ---**
Find the mastermind and
put the screws to him? No,
**[21:02] ---**
if Academy City is directing
these experiments, that won't work.
**[21:06] ---**
The ones who imposed this
crazy project in the first place...
**[21:12] ---**
It's hopeless.
**[21:14] ---**
The reason they're keeping my
attacks under wraps is because
**[21:17] ---**
they want to avoid their
cloning experiments going public.
**[21:22] ---**
But *that*... If I were to destroy *that*...
**[21:27] ---**
Academy City would
have nowhere left to retreat.
**[21:31] ---**
If that happens, I can
never go back to my previous life.
**[21:43] ---**
They've already killed 10,000 of me,
**[21:47] ---**
and I'm still talking about
something so self-serving?
**[21:50] ---**
Say, Kuroko...
**[21:52] ---**
Y-Yes? What is it, Sissy?
**[21:55] ---**
Supposing--just supposing, now--
**[21:58] ---**
I did something that brought
calamity upon Academy City,
**[22:02] ---**
what would you do?
**[22:06] ---**
If you mean making off with drinks
from a busted vending machine,
**[22:10] ---**
I suggest not doing it again.
**[22:12] ---**
That thing took my ¥10,000 bill
when I was a freshman,
**[22:15] ---**
so it's fair game!
**[22:17] ---**
Something...
**[22:20] ---**
Something involving the foundation
that Academy City is built on.
**[22:26] ---**
I cannot say that I know why you
would ask a question such as that,
**[22:31] ---**
but if it is something that would
disrupt the safety of this city,
**[22:34] ---**
then it would not alter what
I would do, even against you, Sissy.
**[22:42] ---**
Hmm, then no matter
how much you call me "Sissy,"
**[22:46] ---**
that's the extent of our relationship, huh?
**[22:48] ---**
N-No, it is not!
**[22:50] ---**
Because I know that there
is not even a remote chance
**[22:52] ---**
that you would do any such thing, Sissy!
**[22:55] ---**
Gotcha!
**[22:57] ---**
I'm joking.
**[22:59] ---**
Sissy...!
**[23:03] ---**
Thank goodness.
**[23:11] ---**
Heh... Oh, Sissy...
**[23:19] ---**
If I get caught by Kuroko in
exchange for stopping the project,
**[23:24] ---**
that wouldn't be so bad.

I knew it was a boy!
It's definitely a boy!

It is not! It absolutely cannot be!
**[23:51] ---**
A boy, I say, a boy! Boy! Boy! Boy! It's a boy!
**[23:51] ---**
I will not have it! It is not! It is not!
