SIGN Inokashira Park

Morning.
[00:19] I
What's up?
[00:20] I
I don't often see you out here.
[00:22] K
I read this.
SIGN Plan for a New Tokyo
Inagi Koutaro
[00:24] K
Can you sign it?
[00:25] I
Come on, what kind of joke is this?
[00:27] K
No, I was seriously impressed.
[00:30] K
If a police officer asked for
an autograph in public,
[00:32] K
it'd cause a problem for you as governor, right?
[00:35] I
Signing a book for someone I know
is a little embarrassing.
[00:39] K
How's the privatized police
plan from the book going?
[00:43] I
Everything has to be taken one step at a time.
[00:46] I
Many older people dislike change.
[00:49] I
Enemies are everywhere.
[00:51] I
By the way, how are your parents lately?
[00:54] K
They're probably fine, wherever they are.
[00:57] K
I got a letter a while ago saying they
were going to see the northern lights.
[01:01] I
That's just like them.
[01:02] I
Bye.
[01:03] K
Thank you, Inagi-san!
[01:06] K
See you again!
[01:08] K
Enemies everywhere, huh?

SIGN File 9: Unit 8, Don't Mobilize
[02:49] J
Why would I help the governor?
[02:52] K
Come on!
[02:53] K
Come up with something to make his life easier!
[02:56] J
People don't change.
[02:58] J
No matter what happens,
[03:00] J
they ultimately try to return to old systems.
[03:03] J
I can prove it. You still use Orochi, right?
[03:07] K
Well, yeah, I guess...
[03:09] J
To destroy things they cling to,
[03:11] J
you do things by force and
be prepared for opposition.
[03:14] K
Sure you can't come up with
anything softer, Jirou?
[03:17] J
I'm not Jirou.
[03:19] J
My sign is fine.
[03:21] J
The sign "Mythos."
[03:22] K
What are you talking about?
[03:24] K
Aren't you eating here and stuff
because you're my little brother?
[03:27] J
I didn't ask for that.
[03:29] K
That's fine.
[03:30] K
I'll just stay here forever.
[03:34] J
Then at least get me an Internet connection.
[03:37] Gu
What do we do?
[03:38] Gu
It may be a good chance to learn
about that other matter.
[03:41] Gu
But not here.
[03:43] Gu
Externally, perhaps...
[03:47] Gu
Yes, this is Hayashida.
[03:50] Gu
Oh, Kuroki-kun is right here.
[03:53] R
Yesterday at 21:35,
[03:56] R
this Willwear appeared at Hikarigaoka,
in Nerima Ward.
[03:59] F
We believe it was after the trade secrets of
Umeda Electrical Engineering, located here.
[04:04] K
It escaped?
[04:05] R
They surrounded it with helicopters,
[04:08] R
but the winds around the building
kept them from getting close.
[04:11] R
Ten minutes later, it used wires
[04:13] R
to jump between buildings and escape.
[04:16] S
Like a spider.
[04:18] F
That's why local police are calling
it the "Spider Incident."
[04:21] M
It's a "spider" because it's a "spy," right?
[04:30] F
Um, what were we talking about?
[04:33] R
The Spider Incident.
[04:35] M
That's right.
[04:36] M
It appears the Willwear was
listening to conversations
[04:38] M
and taking pictures from outside the building.
[04:40] K
Talk about old-fashioned.
[04:42] H
It's possible they didn't think to defend
[04:44] H
against someone listening in from the outside.
[04:47] Gu
The Willwear model it's based on is foreign.
[04:50] E
Foreign?
[04:51] Gu
Yes.
[04:52] Gu
It seems to be using some kind
of special suction device.
[04:56] Gu
I'd love to see how they put it together.
[04:59] Gu
I'd be really happy if we could bring it in!
[05:01] K
Is this an urgent matter?
[05:04] F
No, the opposite.
[05:05] F
There's no need for you to come in for it.
[05:08] F
I just thought you'd want to know.
[05:10] K
Why?
[05:12] K
This is a Willwear case.
[05:14] F
Since it's an industrial espionage case,
[05:16] F
they're not even sure they'll ask for our help.
[05:20] M
But if they do,
[05:21] M
we have to be ready to go immediately, right?
[05:24] R
That's right.
[05:25] R
So I wanted you to be aware, at least.
[05:27] K
I see.
[05:30] I
Not having Unit 8 involved in the
investigation stage is a problem.
[05:33] I
The Tokyo City government
[05:35] I
would like to have an independent unit
handle all these Willwear cases.
[05:40] R
Was this what you were talking
about when Unit 8 moved
[05:42] R
from the National Police to
the Metropolitan Police?
[05:45] I
That's the best option for Tokyo,
[05:47] I
but other municipalities might not like it.
[05:50] I
At present, we rely on privatized help,
[05:53] I
like Sena-kun, but there aren't
enough people like him.
[05:56] I
Do you know any other former police or
[05:59] I
self-defense officers who are
familiar with Willwears?
[06:02] R
That's a tough question.
[06:03] R
We're the first organization of
our type in the police force.
[06:07] I
I see.
[06:09] Gu
Governor, it's about time.
[06:10] I
Oh, sorry, Rin.
[06:13] I
I'll be back.
[06:15] I
A bipartisan faction has found
[06:16] I
something else they want to complain
about with this matter.
[06:20] Gu
Something else?
[06:21] I
They want to be rid of
Tokyo's high-rise buildings.
[06:24] ---
What?
[06:25] I
I understand how they feel.
[06:28] I
Tokyo City's current design was an ad hoc
reaction to the Quicksand Phenomenon.
[06:32] I
They think this is a good chance
to give it a proper design.
[06:35] R
That's what you're always saying, isn't it?
[06:38] I
Hey, I wouldn't say something so extreme.
[06:41] I
I do agree it needs redesigned, though.
[06:43] R
I bet there'd be lots of opposition
to changing the city's design.
[06:47] I
There are many opposition movements,
[06:49] I
like Showa Town during the monster incident.
[06:51] I
But realistically speaking, we must act now.
[06:55] I
I want to give the city's people
an ideal they can unite around.
[06:59] R
There's more than one ideal, right?
[07:01] I
Politics is about making
everything into one ideal.
[07:03] I
You can only have one set of rules.
[07:06] R
I see.
[07:07] R
So politics is making rules?
[07:09] R
You said that before.
SIGN Conference Room
[07:11] Gu
I'm submitting a proposed ban
[07:13] Gu
on new high-rise construction.
[07:15] Gu
High-rises under construction now
will be stopped immediately.
[07:19] Gu
Don't be stupid!
[07:21] Gu
Other cities, like Kyoto, have banned
[07:24] Gu
high-rise construction for aesthetic reasons.
[07:27] Gu
Who the hell do you think you are?!
[07:28] Gu

Silence! Silence!
[07:35] Gi
Hey, Sis.
[07:37] Gi
How's the investigation into
Hachijou-senpai going?
[07:41] Gi
Huh?
[07:42] R
The ICPO sent a message saying
that his parents are missing.
[07:46] R
It seems he obtained citizenship somewhere.
[07:49] R
He used it to come back to Japan,
so Public Safety is...
[07:55] R
Forget that! Pretend you didn't hear that!
[07:58] Gi
But I did.
[08:00] R
You did?
[08:02] R
Sorry, I was kind of spacing out....
[08:04] Gi
There's something I have to ask him.
[08:08] Gi
Is there any way I can see him, like I did before?
[08:12] R
Before?
[08:13] Gi
At the safe house.
[08:15] R
Oh, you mean have Shimajirou-kun
search for him?
[08:18] Gi
What's he doing?
[08:20] R
He's helping us with a lot of cases.
[08:24] ---
Oh?
[08:25] Gi
That's surprising.
[08:31] M
A plan to help the governor?
[08:33] M
You're a real slave driver.
[08:35] K
Don't say that.
[08:37] K
So, what's your take on the spider Willwear?
[08:41] M
They haven't asked for an
investigation yet, have they?
[08:44] K
But it'll be a nuisance if I have to deal with
this when I should be helping Inagi-san.
[08:48] M
Does the governor even need your help?
[08:52] K
Don't talk to your older brother like that.
[08:55] M
If the criminal is a professional industrial
spy, hire him to draw him out of hiding.
[09:00] K
A sting, huh?
[09:03] K
There are all kinds of restrictions...
[09:05] M
An investigative officer doesn't
need to set the trap.
[09:09] M
First, I'll see if Bird is behind
the Willwear incident.
[09:13] K
Yeah, thanks, Jirou.
[09:15] M

[09:21] M
The machine specs are a little low,
[09:23] M
but I can make it work.
[09:26] Gi
Hello!
[09:27] Gi
What can I do for you?
[09:30] M
Let me see...
[09:31] M
First, let's see if Spider is
taking jobs over the net.
[09:35] K
I get it.
[09:37] S
What the hell are you doing to my dorayaki?!
[09:42] K
I'll pay you back later.
[09:44] S
That's not the issue!
[09:46] S
And what are you doing in my office?
[09:48] K
Jirou here is a civilian cooperator.
[09:51] K
Using your computer makes things easier.
[09:54] S
What are you talking about?
[09:56] S
Besides, I'm helping you,
[09:58] S
but I'm under contract, not a regular
part of your organization.
[10:01] K
Yeah?
[10:02] K
Inagi-san said he wanted to do
something for Tokyo, at least.
[10:09] I
The governor's name came up at
the CEO's meeting I was just at.
[10:13] I
The construction workers were mad that
[10:15] I
they're starting debate on the new law.

[10:43] Gi
We made it!
[10:44] M
So what do I do now?
[10:46] K
You learned how to contact Spider?
[10:50] M
He only negotiates directly.
[10:52] K
He wants us to meet him?
[10:54] K
Then you go, Jirou—
[10:56] M
Just so we're clear,
[10:57] M
he's just an industrial spy who
has nothing to do with Bird.
[11:01] M
So I won't help you further.
[11:04] K
Okay, you go.

Our motto is "clean and green."

[11:10] K
The other?
[11:12] K
Oh, there...

Is that liver with chives?
[11:21] Gi
No, chives with liver.
[11:24] Gu
You're a detective?
[11:26] Gi
The job goes beyond our
office's ability to handle,
[11:30] Gi
so we'd like you to do it instead.
[11:34] Gu
Your office takes any job?
[11:37] Gi
No, it depends on payment.
[11:39] Gu
Same here.
[11:41] Gu
This will be good money.
[11:43] Gu
Even if you don't pay, other people will.
[11:47] Gi
Just so you know, if you do that,
[11:49] Gi
you'll damage your reputation in this industry.
[11:52] Gi
It's okay, you don't have to believe me.
[11:57] Gu
Very well. I'll take the job.
[11:59] Gu
Get the money ready, and wait for my call.
[12:04] K
Okay! Gotcha!
[12:06] K
Just wait, Spider!
[12:15] R
Don't you know the
"report, inform, consult" rule?
[12:18] R
Why did you set a trap on your own?
[12:20] K
You're right...
[12:23] S
I'm sorry.
[12:24] S
I have another job after this.
[12:27] F
You don't need to worry about it.
[12:28] F
Good luck with your work.
[12:30] S
Thank you. Goodbye.
[12:36] R
Is the Bali corporation that Spider's
after also a civilian cooperator?
[12:40] K
Well...
[12:41] M
They don't know anything.
[12:43] M
I just chose them as bait since they were
a suitable target for an industrial spy.
[12:47] R
Shimajirou-kun, that's a problem.
[12:51] M
Arrest Spider before he steals the secrets,
[12:53] M
and there'll be no problem.
[12:57] F
Um, boss,
[12:58] F
how about we think of it this way?
[13:01] F
A civilian cooperator gave us a tip
[13:04] F
that Spider might target a certain company.
[13:09] F
In other words, this isn't a sting.
[13:11] F
It's a stakeout.
[13:13] R
A stakeout, huh?
[13:16] R
All right.
[13:17] R
Kuroki-kun can pay Madoka-chan's
company directly.
[13:21] R
So, when we do go after Spider?
[13:23] K
Today.
[13:24] F
Then it won't work.

Go home! Go home! Go home!
[18:39] Gi
Look at this.
[18:40] Gi
Another group has appeared
before the demonstrators,
[18:42] Gi
and is stopping them.
[18:44] Gi
They're both civilians. What is this?
[18:48] Gi
The leader of the demonstrators
has powered down his Willwear!
[18:51] Gi
He'll speak with Governor Inagi directly.
[18:53] K
They showed up at the perfect time.
[18:56] M
I'm glad it appears they'll be able
to resolve this peacefully.
[18:59] H
This is Oscar III! Spider has appeared!
[19:03] H
But my battery's in bad shape...
[19:05] E
Oscar III, this is the mobile
assault command vehicle.
[19:08] E
Oscar IV is already on his way.
[19:11] E
Send your position and data.
[19:13] H
Roger.
[19:14] H
Oscar III, sending data.
[19:18] H
Transfer complete.
[19:20] H
I've gotta change!
[19:22] M
Oscar IV, do you have the information?
[19:25] F
This is Oscar IV. All clear.
[19:27] F
Kyoukai-san, I'd like to use my broad-axe.
[19:30] Gu
Your what? You mean the Vibratory Tomahawk?
[19:33] F
Yes, the broad-axe.
[19:35] Gu
It's a tomahawk, isn't it?
[19:37] F
That's another word for it.
[19:39] K
Funasaka-san's come up with his own name for it...
[19:41] R
He's under a lot of stress.
[19:44] Gu
Permission to use the broad-axe granted.
[19:48] F
Roger!
[19:48] F
Doryuu Broad-axe, set up!
[19:55] F
Spider sighted!
[19:56] Gu
Is that Unit 8?
[19:58] F
Change mode two!
[20:03] F
I've been waiting for that.
[20:07] F
Throw!
[20:10] F
This is the police. Surrender peacefully.
[20:12] Gu
Okay!
[20:17] Gu
I... I surrender!
[20:18] Gu
So... Please don't kill me!
[20:22] F
Right, excellent choice.
[20:24] I
As you all know, the Third Mobile Assault Unit
[20:27] I
cannot cover the entire nation themselves.
[20:31] I
They're doing their best,
[20:32] I
but the country's legal
structure hasn't caught up.
[20:35] I
That's why,
[20:37] I
in addition to Senars, Inc.,
our first civilian cooperator,
[20:40] I
these people have volunteered to be part of the
[20:43] I
volunteer anti-crime organization "Subaru."
[20:46] I
As we thank them for their kindness,
[20:49] I
I'd like to promise easier access
to Willwears, and full support
[20:54] I
for any volunteers given the
[20:56] I
appropriate authorizations by the Tokyo
government and Metropolitan Police.
[21:00] M
That volunteer authorization system
[21:03] M
was set up really fast, wasn't it?
[21:05] H
Yeah.
[21:06] H
And the sky-rise ban was easily shot down.
[21:10] H
What the hell is the Diet thinking?
[21:12] R
I don't think
[21:14] R
that law was ever supposed to pass.
[21:17] ---
Huh?
[21:18] K
So that demonstration was a setup?
[21:20] M
Not just the demonstration. The whole thing.
[21:22] M
There were three actors involved.
[21:24] M
A Diet member to submit an impossible law,
[21:27] M
a Willwear laborer to lead the demonstration,
[21:31] M
and a Willwear user to put together
a civilian security force.
[21:35] M
These three are different points
[21:37] M
on the same line that someone
drew, don't you think?
[21:40] K
Is it Hachijou?
[21:42] M
Not just him.
[21:44] M
You asked me to find a way
[21:46] M
to make things easier for the governor, right?
[21:49] M
The governor was the one who
gained the most from this.
[21:53] K
What are you trying to say?
[21:54] M
That the governor or his secretary set this up.
[21:58] K
Hey, don't talk like that without proof.
[22:02] M
When Logos was still functional,
[22:03] M
several things were done
that I didn't know about.
[22:06] M
I thought it was Dog,
or perhaps the yakuza or mafia,
[22:10] M
but if Bird was working with Inagi...
[22:12] K
Don't say another word!
[22:15] Gu
Kuroki-san?
[22:16] K
Hinata-chan, what's going on?
[22:19] Gu
Could I talk to you?
[22:21] M
Talk to me?
[22:23] Gu
Yes.
