*Striking Fist 3*!
***SIGN*** Episode 8
"Striking Fist"
**[01:23] Ozma**
So this is the game Subarucchi is from.
**[01:26] Subaru**
Having it in front of me like this
really makes my head spin.
**[01:34] Nona**
She's really cute, isn't she?
**[01:36] Ozma**
Oh, Rindo, right?
**[01:37] Ozma**
She's the game's signature
character, an unwavering heroine.
**[01:41] Bellnoa**
By the way, where's Haruto?
**[01:42] Nona**
Haruto-san's gone to see Kanmuri-san.
**[01:46] Seijirou**
*Hello, my Super Mobile Girls.*
**[01:49] Nona**
Huh?
**[01:50] Seijirou**
* I, Kanmuri Seijirou, have acquired*
* the personage of Bouida Haruto.*
**[01:54] Nona**
Haruto-san! Why are you dressed like that?
**[01:56] Ozma**
I-It looks terrible on you!
**[01:58] Seijirou**
*He is just like a captured princess.*
**[02:00] Seijirou**
*If you want him back, then come!*
**[02:02] Seijirou**
*Just the three of you!*
**[02:04] Kusabi**
*And so, I'll be showing you the way!*
**[02:09] Girls**
Huh?
**[02:12] Subaru**
This is... the Australia
stage from *Striking Fist 3*.
**[02:17] Subaru**
Why? How?
**[02:19] Seijirou**
*It seems an error has occurred.*
**[02:22] Seijirou**
* After all, though you're a*
* character from this game,*
**[02:24] Seijirou**
*you were wearing weird, unofficial clothing.*
**[02:28] Nona**
Haruto-san!
**[02:29] Bellnoa**
Haruto!
**[02:30] Seijirou**
*Welcome, my friends.*
**[02:32] Seijirou**
* If you three challenge three fighters*
* from this world and win two out of three,*
**[02:37] Seijirou**
*I will return Bouida to you.*
**[02:39] Nona**
It can't be! Even if it's to save
Haruto-san, fighting is just...
**[02:43] Bellnoa**
No. Now that it's come to this,
all we can do is fight.
**[02:46] Seijirou**
* By the way, if you lose, you'll*
* become my research samples.*
**[02:50] Kusabi**
And the first fighter is...
**[02:52] Kusabi**
Could it be! Could it be!
**[02:54] Kusabi**
*Striking Fist 3*'s hidden boss! KarateMao!
**[02:59] Kusabi**
Each fight is just one round! Okay?
**[03:01] Kusabi**
Ready... Fight!
**[03:09] Subaru**
Bellnoa! KarateMao reacts
super quickly! Be careful!
**[03:13] Subaru**
Also, he doesn't have many moves, but
somehow his techniques are a lot like mine!
**[03:17] Bellnoa**
Fear not.
**[03:18] Bellnoa**
While I have lived in Haruto's world, I have
learned a more flexible way of thinking.
**[03:22] Bellnoa**
It shall be a new sword in my arsenal!
**[03:29] Subaru**
That's...
**[03:30] Subaru**
She's floating where he can't reach her
**[03:32] Subaru**
and casting a whole bunch
of stat boosters on herself.
**[03:35] Subaru**
That's so childish.
**[03:37] Nona**
So pretty! Maybe she can win this way!
**[03:40] Kusabi**
And that's it! Time's up!
**[03:43] Bellnoa**
What?
**[03:45] Kusabi**
Bellnoa loses on points.
**[03:47] Nona**
She was shining so much and she still lost.
**[03:50] Subaru**
She used up too much time casting magic.
**[03:53] Bellnoa**
My match ends like this?
**[03:56] Kusabi**
And the next fighter is...
**[04:02] Kusabi**
From *Dragulious Saga 4*,
the Demon Dragon King!
**[04:08] Kusabi**
Ready... Fight!
**[04:10] Nona**
*S-Stay away!*
**[04:12] Haruto**
Kanmuri! Stop this fight!
**[04:16] Seijirou**
If you say you'll help me research
the moving figurines, then...
**[04:20] Haruto**
Ask for something else.
**[04:24] Nona**
It can't be... He hasn't taken any damage...
**[04:28] RyuuMao**
It has been a long time since anyone was
reckless enough to challenge me head-on.
**[04:34] RyuuMao**
I really like you!
**[04:38] RyuuMao**
Girl. You will marry me!
**[04:41] girls**
Huh?
**[04:42] RyuuMao**
I've been wanting a bride!
It was worth coming here!
**[04:45] RyuuMao**
Your nobility! Your beauty! You're blonde!
**[04:46] RyuuMao**
You are the very embodiment of
a heroine! I just can't get enough!
**[04:49] Nona**
I thought you came here to fight, didn't you?
**[04:52] Nona**
Ow!
**[04:55] RyuuMao**
Yes, a heroine should have
blonde hair, not black!
**[04:58] Subaru**
Oh no! Nona!
**[05:08] Subaru**
Is that...
**[05:09] ShadowNona**
Saying that blonde is better than
black hair. I cannot forgive that.
**[05:12] ShadowNona**
Revise your words.
**[05:13] Subaru**
That's the problem?
**[05:15] RyuuMao**
Seeing beauty such as yours...
**[05:18] RyuuMao**
Black hair is the best!
**[05:20] ShadowNona**
Very good. I will permit the marriage.
**[05:22] Subaru**
Seriously?
**[05:24] Nona**
Why would it turn out that way?
**[05:26] ShadowNona**
This is a good opportunity for us
as "girl shaped space probes"
**[05:30] ShadowNona**
to fulfill our original mission.
**[05:32] ShadowNona**
Life-forms able to construct
advanced civilizations
**[05:34] ShadowNona**
have a high probability
of being humanoid in form.
**[05:36] ShadowNona**
And, generally, the threat
comes from the males.
**[05:39] ShadowNona**
In female form, we can inspire feelings
of affection and a protective instinct.
**[05:44] RyuuMao**
Now, we must prepare
for the wedding ceremony.
**[05:47] RyuuMao**
Huh? Blonde?
**[05:48] RyuuMao**
Well, that's good, too.
**[05:50] Nona**
I don't want to! I can't get married!
**[05:52] Nona**
I already have...
**[05:54] Haruto**
Nona!
**[05:56] Nona**
Haruto-san!
**[05:57] Haruto**
Input code 0092!
**[06:02] RyuuMao**
Huh?
**[06:04] system**
*Code accepted. Nona 2 activated.*
**[06:06] system**
*Champion system unlocked.*
**[06:11] Nona**
Haruto-san. What is this?
**[06:13] Haruto**
Use that and hurry up and beat
the Demon Dragon King!
**[06:16] Nona**
I beat him already!
**[06:18] Haruto**
What?
**[06:20] Bellnoa**
Nona won!
**[06:25] Bellnoa**
Are you all right?
**[06:27] Subaru**
It looks like she's just sleeping.
**[06:31] Subaru**
Her costume...
**[06:33] Kusabi**
And now, finally, the third challenger!
**[06:38] Subaru**
Rindo!
**[06:40] Kusabi**
Ready... Fight!
**[06:44] Nona**
I slept really well! Oh!
**[06:46] Nona**
That's right! The match!
**[06:50] Subaru**
The body is the path. Along the path
travels the strength of the heart...
**[06:53] Subaru**
This is the Amanohara-style's special...
**[06:55] Subaru**
Divine Power Blast!
**[06:57] ---**
Guard.
**[06:58] Rindo**
Cancel. Spirit Attack.
**[07:03] Rindo**
Cancel. Hyper Spirit Attack.
**[07:07] Rindo**
I am an assassin.
**[07:10] Rindo**
Since I was small, I've had assassination
techniques drilled into me.
**[07:12] Rindo**
I was raised knowing nothing
of play or friends or love.
**[07:16] Rindo**
However...
**[07:17] Rindo**
If I obliterate the Amanohara-style,
**[07:19] Rindo**
the organization has promised
they will release me from this path.
**[07:23] Rindo**
That is the ending I wish for.
**[07:26] Nona**
Wait, Rindo-san!
**[07:28] Nona**
Is there something you want
to do once you're free?
**[07:32] Rindo**
Excellent question.
**[07:33] Rindo**
I want...
**[07:35] Rindo**
to become an idol!
**[07:36] Rindo**
Under the brilliant lights,
**[07:38] Rindo**
I will become an idol who will bring
all the men in this world to their knees!
**[07:42] Nona**
Huh?
**[07:43] Rindo**
But I can't seem to become an idol!
**[07:45] Rindo**
And no matter how many
times I think I defeat you,
**[07:47] Rindo**
for some reason you're there
in the sequel, still sneakily alive.
**[07:50] Rindo**
You!
**[07:52] Rindo**
At this point, I detest you
on a personal level!
**[07:54] Subaru**
Why? None of that is my fault!
**[07:57] Rindo**
Take this!
**[08:02] Rindo**
KarateMao?
**[08:04] KarateMao**
If you will target the Amanohara...
**[08:07] KarateMao**
then I will reveal myself!
**[08:10] KarateMao**
I am also an Amanohara.
**[08:12] KarateMao**
Amanohara Kaimon!
**[08:14] KarateMao**
Subaru's father!
**[08:15] Subaru**
Oh! That's why our moves seemed similar.
**[08:18] KarateMao**
Just a moment, my daughter.
**[08:20] KarateMao**
Could you feel a little moved, please?
**[08:22] Haruto**
I'm begging you! Send Nona
and the others back ho—
**[08:27] Subaru**
Oh, Haruto-kun. Sorry about that.
**[08:29] Haruto**
Subaru-san! You're covered in wounds!
**[08:32] Haruto**
How dare you do that to my
Subaru-san?! Who was it?
**[08:35] Subaru**
Um...
**[08:36] Rindo**
It was me.
**[08:38] Haruto**
You, was it?
**[08:39] Haruto**
Wait.
**[08:41] Haruto**
Rindo-san! The eternal idol
who holds all gamers in her thrall!
**[08:44] Haruto**
Rindo-san! Right?
**[08:46] Rindo**
What?
**[08:46] Rindo**
Me? An idol?
**[08:48] KarateMao**
Open your heart!
**[08:50] KarateMao**
That is the secret of the
Shinkuu Amanohara-style.
**[08:53] Subaru**
So you say, but I can't do it
the way you do, father...
**[08:57] Subaru**
or rather, I don't really want to...
**[08:58] KarateMao**
I have no choice.
**[08:59] KarateMao**
You there, the group of young men.
**[09:03] KarateMao**
Try looking this way.
***SIGN*** Morning Ennui
**[09:04] Subaru**
Father, those are...
**[09:07] KarateMao**
Boom.
**[09:08] Subaru**
Stop it!
**[09:12] KarateMao**
These are all things my daughter drew.
The rumored "slim volumes."
**[09:15] KarateMao**
The genre is boys' love!
**[09:17] KarateMao**
Stories where boys love boys!
**[09:20] KarateMao**
Now I have revealed Subaru's
secret interests! Boom!
**[09:21] Subaru**
Y-You're too cruel...
**[09:25] KarateMao**
That feeling will become your power!
**[09:28] Seijirou**
What are you trying to say about these?
**[09:32] Seijirou**
As far as otaku girls go,
this is pretty average these days.
**[09:34] Seijirou**
Right?
**[09:35] Seijirou**
Hey, Bouida! What are you doing?
**[09:40] Haruto**
F-Father. Where otaku
interests are concerned...
**[09:43] Haruto**
having them be so embarrassing you
want to hide them is the perfect level.
**[09:46] Haruto**
The fact that Subaru-san wants
to preserve her modest image
**[09:48] Haruto**
makes her, in her own way, the true
epitome of Japanese womanhood!
**[09:50] Subaru**
Haruto-kun...
**[09:52] Subaru**
Somehow that sounds... sort of sexy...
**[09:56] KarateMao**
Hey, glasses man.
**[09:59] KarateMao**
You have no right to call me "Father"!
**[10:03] KarateMao**
Now that it's come to this,
you'll all go down together!
**[10:06] KarateMao**
Starting now, I will read every single
line of those slim books aloud!
**[10:10] Rindo**
If you're going to stop him, I'll help you.
**[10:12] Subaru**
Rindo!
**[10:13] Rindo**
I will not forgive anyone who sullies
a girl's dreams and freedom.
**[10:17] Rindo**
Come! Let's go!
**[10:19] Rindo**
Hyper Spirit Attack!
**[10:21] Subaru**
Divine Power Blast!
**[10:26] KarateMao**
It's no use. None at all.
**[10:28] KarateMao**
As long as you refuse to open
the depths of your hearts...
**[10:30] KarateMao**
there will be no victory for you!
**[10:34] Subaru**
Haruto-kun!
**[10:36] Haruto**
Huh?
**[10:37] Subaru**
I've been thinking this for a little while...
**[10:40] Subaru**
A couple made of otaku would be
able to understand each other
**[10:43] Subaru**
and move forward in a lot of ways.
**[10:45] Subaru**
So! What would you think of someone like me?
**[10:47] Haruto**
What?!
**[10:51] KarateMao**
*I see! Subaru!*
**[10:53] KarateMao**
*While I wasn't looking, you've grown so much!*
**[10:57] KarateMao**
*Except for your bosom.*
**[11:01] Subaru**
*Now, Haruto-kun! Let's go home together!*
**[11:04] Bellnoa**
She confessed her feelings, didn't she?
**[11:05] Nona**
She confessed her feelings.
**[11:07] Ozma**
Haruto's probably gonna get K.O.ed next!
