[00:20] ---
    Could you even imagine a
    girl falling from the sky?

[00:27] ---
    Well, it might be a good way to
    start off a movie or a manga.

[00:39] ---
    It's a prologue to something
    mysterious and special.

[01:21] ---
    The main character turns
    into a hero or something

[01:24] ---
    and starts a great adventure with that girl.
[01:27] ---
    But really wishing for such
    a thing would be foolish...

[01:31] ---
    because there's no way a girl
    like that would be normal.

[01:40] ---
    Hey, you idiot!
[01:42] ---
    Duck already!
[01:56] ---
    Being dragged into an unusual
    world and made into a hero...

[02:02] ---
    I bet if that happened in reality, it'd
    be dangerous and a pain in the ass.

[02:08] ---
    A bomb is planted on this bike.
[02:11] ---
    You'll be caught in the explosion, too!

    Butei Charter Article 1...
[02:17] ---
    Trust in your comrades and help them!
[02:21] ---
    Ready?!
[02:22] ---
    That's why I, Kinji Tohyama...
[02:42] ---
    don't need to encounter a
    girl falling from the sky.

[02:47] ---
    You strongly attract things you believe in
[02:54] ---
    I'll protect even your ice-cold gaze
[03:01] ---
    My wish descends upon a whirlwind of scarlet
[03:23] ---
    The sky doesn't reflect those little things
[03:26] ---
    When I ran alone, I wasn't scared
[03:29] ---
    If I betray tomorrow here
[03:32] ---
    I won't be able to go anywhere anymore
[03:35] ---
    I who have sinned, am wandering
    about in a city seeking light

[03:43] ---
    You strongly attract things you believe in
[03:49] ---
    I'll protect even your ice-cold gaze
[03:56] ---
    The thought I'm holding in
    my hands is "brilliance"

[04:02] ---
    Until this never-ending
    tune makes it to the truth

[04:09] ---
    I'll shoot through with
    the febricula that is me

[04:17] ---
    "Episode 1"
[04:37] ---
    All I wanted was to live an ordinary life.
[04:50] ---
    Not standing out... Not having
    anything to do with anyone...

[04:54] ---
    I wanted to transfer out
    of this crazy school...

[04:57] ---
    That was my...
[04:59] ---
    Kinji Tohyama's only wish.
[05:09] ---
    "Tohyama"
[05:13] ---
    Good morning, Kin!
[05:15] ---
    I told you not to call me that, didn't I?
[05:17] ---
    I'm Kinji Tohyama, not "Kin."
[05:20] ---
    Oh, I-I'm sorry.
[05:22] ---
    But I was thinking about you, Kin,
[05:25] ---
    so when I saw you, I just...
[05:26] ---
    Ah, I called you "Kin" again.
[05:29] ---
    I-I'm sorry, Kin... Ah...
[05:36] ---
    "Tokyo Butei High School Men's
    Dormitory Building ♪3"
[05:40] ---
    So what did you come here for?
[05:42] ---
    W-Well...
[05:44] ---
    I was at Ise Shrine for that training
    camp up until yesterday, right?
[05:48] ---
    I couldn't do anything for
    you because of that, so...
[05:52] ---
    I said you don't have to.
[05:54] ---
    B... But...
[06:00] ---
    Geez...
[06:01] ---
    Okay, okay...
[06:06] ---
    So...
[06:09] ---
    I made this...!
[06:11] ---
    These are shrimps cooked
    in sugar and soy sauce.
[06:13] ---
    This is Coho salmon.
[06:15] ---
    This is Saijo persimmon.
[06:16] ---
    And since you like omelettes,
    I put in some extra.
[06:19] ---
    Wasn't it a lot of work cooking all these?
[06:22] ---
    No...
[06:23] ---
    I woke up just a little bit
    earlier than usual, that's all.
[06:25] ---
    I was worried that you
    might only have been eating
[06:27] ---
    convenience store food
    during spring break, so...
[06:32] ---
    That...
[06:35] ---
    has nothing to do with you, right?
[06:51] ---
    Here you go, Kin.
[06:53] ---
    Ah... yeah...
[07:00] ---
    Er...
[07:02] ---
    Thanks for all the stuff
    you do for me, Shirayuki.
[07:04] ---
    Hm?
[07:07] ---
    I thank you, too, Kin.
[07:09] ---
    Thank you very much!
[07:11] ---
    Why are you thanking me?
[07:14] ---
    B-Because you ate it and you
    even said "thanks," so...
[07:20] ---
    N-No way! Black?!
[07:21] ---
    This has to be prohibited!
[07:24] ---
    Thanks for the food!
[07:32] ---
    Phew...
[07:33] ---
    that was a close call...
[07:37] ---
    Kin...
[07:39] ---
    Hm?
[07:39] ---
    Today is the start of our second
    year of school together, huh?
[07:42] ---
    Here, your bulletproof school uniform.
[07:44] ---
    Yeah...
[07:46] ---
    And, your Beretta, too.
[07:47] ---
    Since the bullets were lying
    around, I loaded them for you.
[07:50] ---
    I don't have to carry a gun on
    the first day of school, do I?
[07:55] ---
    You do, Kin.
[07:57] ---
    The school rules say that students
    of Butei High are required
[08:01] ---
    to carry a gun and a sword
    within school premises, right?
[08:05] ---
    Besides, someone like that *Butei
    killer might appear again, so...
[08:09] ---
    Butei killer...
[08:11] ---
    that murderer?
[08:13] ---
    But that guy was already caught, right?
[08:16] ---
    B-But a copycat might appear.
[08:19] ---
    This morning's fortune said that
    you'd have trouble caused by a woman.
[08:23] ---
    If something were to happen to you, Kin...
[08:25] ---
    I... I...
[08:30] ---
    Okay, okay...
[08:32] ---
    Besides, if I break the rules,
    I'll get an even worse assessment,

[08:35] ---
    and then I can't even transfer schools, so...
[08:45] ---
    You're cool, Kin!
[08:47] ---
    As expected of someone from a
    family with a long line of heroes!
[08:51] ---
    Stop saying that.
[08:52] ---
    Heroes?
[08:54] ---
    We're not kids...
[08:59] ---
    Go ahead and go without me.
[09:01] ---
    I'll leave after I check my email.
[09:03] ---
    Ah, then, I'll clean and do
    laundry until you finish.
[09:07] ---
    You've done enough already.
[09:08] ---
    O-Okay.
[09:11] ---
    Well then, uhm...
[09:12] ---
    I hope I'll have an email from you later.
[09:24] ---
    Oh shoot!
[09:25] ---
    I'm gonna miss the bus!
[09:28] ---
    I missed the 7:58 bus for school on that day,
[09:32] ---
    "Men's Dormitory Building ♪3 Entrance"
[09:33] ---
    which I would come to regret
    for the rest of my life.

[09:38] ---
    All I wanted was to have a normal,
    ordinary life, but then...

[09:48] ---
    "Left: Tokyo Butei High
    School - General Course"
[09:48] ---
    "Straight: Monorail - Butei
    High School Entrance"
[09:52] ---
    There is a bomb planted on that bike.
[09:56] ---
    If you get off the bike or reduce
    the speed, it will explode.
[10:01] ---
    Wh-What?!
[10:03] ---
    Who's playing this prank?
[10:04] ---
    Do not seek help.
[10:07] ---
    It will also explode if
    you use your cell phone.
[10:10] ---
    This can't be serious...
[10:14] ---
    Besides, someone like that Butei
    killer might appear again, so...
[10:19] ---
    A copycat...!
[10:20] ---
    Why?!
[10:21] ---
    Why am I being targeted?!
[10:23] ---
    I even wish I could quit being a Butei...!
[10:28] ---
    Hello Year 1 students, I'm
    pleased to meet you all.
[10:31] ---
    I'm Sayonaki, an Ambulace instructor
    at Tokyo Butei High School.
[10:36] ---
    Today, I'll go over
[10:39] ---
    the basics and school rules
[10:43] ---
    at Butei High.
[10:47] ---
    Tokyo Butei High is a 2 km long by 500 m wide
[10:51] ---
    rectangle mega-float, which floats
    to the south of Rainbow Bridge.
[10:58] ---
    If I stop, it'll explode.
[11:00] ---
    If I reduce the speed, it'll explode.
[11:01] ---
    Even if I jump off,
[11:03] ---
    I'll only end up falling victim to an Uzi.
[11:04] ---
    What can I do?!
[11:07] ---
    As you know, Butei High is a
    comprehensive educational institute
[11:10] ---
    that trains students to become
    Butei, armed detectives.
[11:13] ---
    Butei are given
[11:14] ---
    an international license that
    gives them powers equivalent
[11:17] ---
    to those of the police,
[11:19] ---
    for example, carrying
    arms and making arrests,
[11:21] ---
    in order to fight increasingly
    vicious crimes.
[11:23] ---
    However, unlike the police,
    Butei take paid work.
[11:27] ---
    They're handymen who'd do anything
    within the bounds of the Butei Law.
[11:41] ---
    No good.
[11:43] ---
    Unless I take it out in one shot,
[11:44] ---
    I'll become Swiss cheese for sure.
[11:46] ---
    Given the nature of the job,
[11:49] ---
    Butei could incur anyone's enmity.
[11:52] ---
    Recently, too, there was a
    killer who targeted Butei.
[11:56] ---
    Everyone, please be as careful as possible.
[11:59] ---
    At least try not
[12:00] ---
    to get yourself killed
    while you're in school.
[12:04] ---
    Well, regardless,
[12:07] ---
    I won't see some of you come graduation time.
[12:14] ---
    Oh no... My legs are almost shot...
[12:16] ---
    If you reduce speed any
    more, it will explode.
[12:20] ---
    Am I going to die... in a place like this?!
[12:20] ---
    --It will explode.
[12:33] ---
    Could you even imagine a
    girl falling from the sky?

[12:58] ---
    Huh...?
[12:59] ---
    What... happened to me?
[13:02] ---
    My bike had a bomb planted on it...
[13:05] ---
    A girl fell from the sky...
[13:07] ---
    And then...?
[13:16] ---
    She's cute...
[13:18] ---
    Hey, wait...
[13:24] ---
    I got thrown by the explosion and ended
    up stuck in a place like this...?
[13:28] ---
    This can't be right...!
[13:31] ---
    So this girl saved me...?
[13:34] ---
    Even though it meant she'd
    be in that much danger...?

[13:38] ---
    Oh no, this is bad!
[13:39] ---
    This is prohibited!
[13:40] ---
    Prohibited! Prohibited!
    Prohibited! Prohibited...!
[13:43] ---
    Argh!
[13:46] ---
    "Aria H. Kanzaki"
[13:46] ---
    Aria H. Kanzaki?
[13:49] ---
    From 65 A to B?
[13:51] ---
    She's squishing them together
    and lifting them up?!
[13:53] ---
    "Expected corrected chest line"
[13:53] ---
    "Base flat surface"
[13:53] ---
    "Actual line"
[13:53] ---
    "Happiness graph"
[13:53] ---
    They aren't lifted up at all.
[13:56] ---
    Good.
[13:57] ---
    This should be...
[13:58] ---
    Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-You perv!
[14:03] ---
    --You're disgusting! Disgusting!
    Disgusting! Disgusting...!
[14:03] ---
    --Ouch!
[14:04] ---
    --Hey! Stop it!
[14:06] ---
    You molester!
[14:07] ---
    --You ungrateful wretch! Monster!
[14:08] ---
    --You got it wrong! I didn't do it!
[14:18] ---
    So there were more...
[14:20] ---
    What were more?
[14:21] ---
    That two-wheeler!
[14:22] ---
    The toy used to kill Butei!
[14:25] ---
    The 9 mm Parabellum rounds
    shot by the Uzi submachine gun
[14:28] ---
    manufactured by an Israeli company, IMI,
    at the rate of ten rounds per second!
[14:32] ---
    If this vaulting box wasn't bulletproof,
    we would've been long dead by now!
[14:35] ---
    B-But I thought that you
    shot it and blew it up.
[14:41] ---
    I'm saying there're more, aren't I?!
[14:43] ---
    On a quick glance, I see at least seven!
[14:44] ---
    That many?
[14:45] ---
    Hey, draw your gun!
[14:47] ---
    At the very least, you're a
    Butei High student, right?
[14:49] ---
    I-I can't!
[14:50] ---
    Hurry!
[14:51] ---
    We need more firepower than
    my guns alone can give!
[14:58] ---
    What the heck...?
[14:59] ---
    So girls' breasts...
[15:02] ---
    are soft even when they're this small?
[15:20] ---
    So you've finished them?
[15:22] ---
    I just temporarily drove them away.
[15:24] ---
    They went hiding behind the roadside trees,
[15:26] ---
    but I bet they'll come out again.
[15:28] ---
    You're a strong girl.
[15:29] ---
    I'm impressed you could manage that.
[15:37] ---
    Here's your reward, princess.
[15:44] ---
    Wh-What...?
[15:46] ---
    Have a seat there and relax, princess.
[15:49] ---
    We don't need two people firing
    guns to resolve this, right?
[15:53] ---
    Wh-What happened to you all of a sudden?!
[15:56] ---
    Have you gone crazy?
[15:57] ---
    Geez...
[15:58] ---
    We're in their blind spot.
[16:00] ---
    They're wasting bullets
    by shooting like that.
[16:02] ---
    It's dangerous! You'll be shot!
[16:03] ---
    That's a lot better than
    you being shot, Aria.
[16:06] ---
    Like I said, what's up with the
    sudden change of personality?!
[16:09] ---
    What're you gonna do?!
[16:10] ---
    I'll protect you, Aria.
[16:40] ---
    Nice aiming.
[16:47] ---
    I-I'm not gonna feel indebted to you!
[16:49] ---
    Toys like that...
[16:50] ---
    I could've handled them all by myself.
[16:53] ---
    It's true! It's really true!
[16:56] ---
    A-And, if you're trying to smooth
    over what you did earlier,
[16:59] ---
    that won't happen!
[17:00] ---
    That was an indecent assault!
[17:02] ---
    It's a crime!
[17:03] ---
    Aria, that's a sad misunderstanding.
[17:06] ---
    That was an accident beyond control.
[17:08] ---
    "A-Accident beyond control"?!
[17:12] ---
    Y-You were trying to take off my clothes
[17:14] ---
    wh-while I was passed out!
[17:17] ---
    O-On top of that, you saw my chest!
[17:19] ---
    That's the fact!
[17:20] ---
    You're a criminal caught in
    the act of indecent assault!
[17:22] ---
    What on earth were you going to do?!
[17:24] ---
    T-Take responsibility!
[17:26] ---
    Aria, let's think about this calmly.
[17:28] ---
    I'm in Year 2 in high school.
[17:30] ---
    There's no way I'd take off
[17:31] ---
    the clothes of a middle-schooler
    who's a lot younger, now is there?
[17:35] ---
    I'm not a middle-schooler!
[17:37] ---
    I'm sorry.
[17:39] ---
    Then you're an elementary-schooler
    who entered as an intern, huh?
[17:41] ---
    But you're amazing, Aria,
[17:43] ---
    doing all that when you're
    in elementary school...
[17:46] ---
    Aria?
[17:47] ---
    I shouldn't have saved a guy like this!
[17:52] ---
    I am in Year 2 in high school!
[18:06] ---
    So you can do hand-to-hand combat, too?
[18:08] ---
    You can't escape from me!
[18:10] ---
    I've never let even a
    single criminal get away!
[18:14] ---
    Huh?
[18:18] ---
    Ahh! My magazine...!
[18:21] ---
    Sorry.
[18:22] ---
    I won't let you get away with this...
[18:24] ---
    Even if you kneel down
    or cry for forgiveness,
[18:26] ---
    I won't let you get away with this!
[18:30] ---
    Swords, too?
[18:31] ---
    You indecent assault man!
[18:33] ---
    Surrender meekl...
[18:37] ---
    Sorry.
[18:38] ---
    I scattered a few of these about.
[18:41] ---
    You jerk!
[18:44] ---
    D-Don't run off, you rotten coward!
[18:46] ---
    I'm gonna pump you full of huge holes!
[18:52] ---
    Hysteria savant syndrome...
[18:55] ---
    commonly known as hysteria mode.
[18:57] ---
    That special condition is part of my genes.
[19:01] ---
    The trouble is
[19:02] ---
    that the hysteria mode also affects my
    state of mind and words and actions.

[19:07] ---
    I start wanting to protect the girl
    in front of me no matter what,

[19:11] ---
    and, for some reason, I act so smug
[19:14] ---
    that I feel like I want to die every
    time I look back on the event.

[19:20] ---
    Man...
[19:21] ---
    "Here's your reward, princess"?
[19:23] ---
    Give me a break!
[19:26] ---
    I'm sorry.
[19:27] ---
    I'm late because something came up.
[19:30] ---
    I want to sit next to that guy!
[19:34] ---
    What?!
[19:36] ---
    Wh-Why? She's in my class?!
[19:39] ---
    I'm glad for you, Kinji!
[19:41] ---
    I don't know what's going on,
[19:42] ---
    but it looks like spring
    has come for you, too.
[19:45] ---
    Teacher!
[19:45] ---
    After drawing lots, I was
    supposed to sit next to Kinji,
[19:48] ---
    but I'll give that seat
    to the transfer student!
[19:50] ---
    Oh, yeah?
[19:52] ---
    Then the seat next to
    Tohyama goes to Kanzaki.
[19:55] ---
    Well, uhm, teacher...
[19:58] ---
    Here's your belt from earlier.
[20:02] ---
    I got it!
[20:03] ---
    I figured it out!
[20:05] ---
    This is a big red flag!
[20:07] ---
    Huh?
[20:08] ---
    You're not wearing your belt, Kii.
[20:10] ---
    Miss twin-tail brought that belt.
[20:13] ---
    This mystery is, in short, that
    you did something in front of her
[20:16] ---
    that required you to take off your belt!
[20:19] ---
    --I see...
[20:19] ---
    --Geez, Kii!
[20:20] ---
    --In other words, he's in a relationship.
[20:22] ---
    --When did you become popular like this?
[20:22] ---
    --K-Kinji's dating a cute girl like her?!
[20:24] ---
    --And I thought he was
    inconspicuous! I feel lonely!
[20:26] ---
    I thought he wasn't interested in girls!
[20:28] ---
    --How filthy...!
[20:28] ---
    --How alluring... Just
    imagining it would make me...
[20:29] ---
    --L-Look...
[20:39] ---
    B-Being in a relationship is stupid!
[20:42] ---
    Everyone, remember that!
[20:43] ---
    If you're gonna talk stupid stuff like that,
[20:45] ---
    I'll pump you full of holes!
[20:54] ---
    That was pretty crazy for a first
    day of school, wasn't it...?
[21:02] ---
    "You've got new mail."
[21:03] ---
    She likes email, doesn't she?
[21:05] ---
    "From: Shirayuki Hotogi"
[21:05] ---
    Hi Kin, how are you?
[21:08] ---
    Inquesta's classes are
    over for the day, right?

[21:10] ---
    Looks like the SSR has classes until night.
[21:13] ---
    I want to go home already and...
[21:16] ---
    It must be tough for Shirayuki,
    too, in a lot of ways.
[21:20] ---
    Now that I'm home, it's like the bomb
    incident this morning never happened.

[21:24] ---
    I never imagined that I'd be
    targeted by a Butei killer...

[21:27] ---
    no, by a copycat of the Butei killer.
[21:32] ---
    But it wasn't like I was
    specifically targeted.

[21:35] ---
    Is it random, will they kill
    anyone as long as they're Butei?

[21:38] ---
    But would they go to the trouble of
    planting a bomb on a bike like that?

[21:41] ---
    So after all, it's a
    personal grudge against me?

[21:44] ---
    But who would do a complicated
    thing like that to target me?

[21:48] ---
    Argh! How annoying!
[21:51] ---
    Who the hell is it?!
[21:51] ---
    "Tohyama"
[21:53] ---
    What took you so long?!
[21:55] ---
    K-Kanzaki?
[21:57] ---
    You can call me Aria!
[21:58] ---
    H-Hey, Kanzaki! Hold on a sec!
[22:01] ---
    Don't come in without permission!
[22:02] ---
    Kanzaki!
[22:04] ---
    Hey!
[22:10] ---
    Kinji!
[22:11] ---
    Become my slave!
[22:16] ---
    Just as Shirayuki said, I had
    trouble caused by a woman today...

[22:41] ---
    I always ran on my own,
[22:47] ---
    Right up against my limit.
[22:54] ---
    Am I a third wheel? If that's how you feel
[22:59] ---
    It's still not too late.
    You can turn back here.

[23:06] ---
    I was used to saying goodbye
    until I met you that day.

[23:15] ---
    
“I want to protect you”...

[23:18] ---
    No one had said that to me before.
[23:28] ---
    I think I had been waiting
    a long time to hear that...
[23:33] ---
    I want to believe in you!
[23:39] ---
    What will be the final?
[23:42] ---
    Through camellia-colored eyes...
[23:54] ---
    Become my slave! Yep, yep, it's a nice
    phrase! That was cool, if I may say so.

[24:00] ---
    What's with all the selfish talk?!
[24:02] ---
    So, anyway, team up with me!
[24:05] ---
    Don't be ridiculous! Why would I do that?!
[24:08] ---
    Besides, I've decided to quit being a Butei!
[24:09] ---
    Ahh! Peach buns taste so good!
[24:13] ---
    Listen to me when I'm talking!
[24:15] ---
    Next time, Aria the Scarlet Ammo episode 2!
[24:16] ---
    "Episode 2: Aria the Quadra"
[24:17] ---**
    
"Aria the Quadra"!

[24:18] ---
    Watch it or I'll pump you full of holes!
[24:21] ---
