**[00:03] ---**
Oh man.
**[00:04] ---**
What are you going to do about this?
**[00:07] ---**
You can only keep fighting
a losing battle for so long.
**[00:10] ---**
*Dr. Gedoin!*
**[00:11] ---**
*Preparations for Material #0987
are complete!*
**[00:14] ---**
*We'll be arriving at the panopticon shortly!*
**[00:16] ---**
You're so slow! Hurry the hell up!
**[00:17] ---**
Are you really going through
with the procedure at a time like this?
**[00:22] ---**
Izumo's compatibility with Nine Tails
has plummeted to ordinary levels, right?
**[00:27] ---**
This is probably your last chance to go
crawling back to the Commander and report this.
**[00:33] ---**
Shut up!
**[00:34] ---**
I told you, the fun
is only about to start!
**[00:37] ---**
You go get Izumo.
**[00:39] ---**
If we transport Izumo,
they're sure to make a bid to recover her,
**[00:43] ---**
and it's about to get dangerous
in more ways than one!
**[00:45] ---**
Not to mention, I'm sick of looking at your face!
**[00:48] ---**
You stay here and keep them company!
**[00:52] ---**
Roger that.
**[02:29] ---**
*Welcome, you hideous cockroaches.*
**[02:30] ---**
EPISODE 9:
HELP ME
**[02:33] ---**
*I am the head of the Illuminati's
Far East Laboratory...*
**[02:36] ---**
*Michael Gedoin!*
**[02:38] ---**
G-Gedoin? What? That's his name?
**[02:41] ---**
*You little bastards...
How dare you violate my sanctuary!*
**[02:45] ---**
This is the holy ground where I experiment
with the Elixir of Immortality!
**[02:49] ---**
For intruding on this sanctuary,
you deserve to die 10,000 deaths!
**[02:53] ---**
I'm going to slaughter you all after driving home
the gravity of your crimes!
**[02:58] ---**
Elixir? Immortality?
**[03:00] ---**
What's he talking about?
**[03:02] ---**
He means...
**[03:03] ---**
that Ms. Kamiki was abducted...
**[03:04] ---**
so that he could experiment on her
to produce this immortality potion.
**[03:08] ---**
And most likely...
**[03:10] ---**
the Zombies we've been battling
were also victims of this experiment!
**[03:16] ---**
That's correct!
**[03:19] ---**
Those Zombies are all duds from my human trials!
**[03:23] ---**
They were tourists
that we brought to Peace Town Inari.
**[03:27] ---**
To produce an elixir with
even more potent regenerative powers,
**[03:31] ---**
I need masses of human experiments!
**[03:34] ---**
Huh? You're kidding me, right?
**[03:36] ---**
Those guys?
**[03:38] ---**
*Now, now, rest assured.*
**[03:41] ---**
*The food and drink being sold in Fox Alley...*
**[03:44] ---**
*are laced with a drug designed to help the brain
achieve a constant state of ecstasy.*
**[03:50] ---**
*The more they eat, the more they crave...*
**[03:52] ---**
*until those tourists are physically unable
to survive without Fox Alley...*
**[03:57] ---**
*at which point we select them to be residents
of Peace Town Inari. My test subjects!*
**[04:03] ---**
*Thanks to the drugs, they feel
so little fear or pain during the experiments.*
**[04:09] ---**
*That's all due to the benevolence
of Lord Lucifer who feels it'd be cruel...*
**[04:14] ---**
*to inflict needless suffering on them
when we're using them against their will.*
**[04:18] ---**
*How humane is that?*
**[04:22] ---**
Hey you...
**[04:24] ---**
Are you a demon?
**[04:26] ---**
Oh no, I am a human.
**[04:29] ---**
Unfortunately for you, huh?
**[04:35] ---**
*Wh-What's this?*
**[04:37] ---**
What the...
**[04:38] ---**
*He just detonated the Elixir capsule
that was embedded in its body.*
**[04:44] ---**
*Well, just think of it as a form of doping.*
**[04:52] ---**
*Overdosing on the Elixir
causes their bodies...*
**[04:55] ---**
*to cycle repeatedly through
destruction and regeneration...*
**[04:57] ---**
*until they're no longer able
to maintain their human form.*
**[05:02] ---**
*To sustain those abnormal regenerative powers,
they transform into squirming masses of flesh,*
**[05:07] ---**
*relentlessly absorbing the objects
around them in their quest for energy!*
**[05:14] ---**
Everyone, step back!
**[05:16] ---**
How dare you...
**[05:18] ---**
How dare you do a thing like this!
**[05:20] ---**
It doesn't bug you at all?
**[05:21] ---**
Hah! Not in the least.
**[05:24] ---**
I despise humans!
**[05:28] ---**
*I'm sure you know that various animals
are used in scientific experiments.*
**[05:33] ---**
*Killing other living creatures
so that they can live on...*
**[05:36] ---**
*That's the kind of creatures humans are!*
**[05:39] ---**
Shouldn't they deal
with their own problems themselves?
**[05:43] ---**
Humans using humans
to conduct experiments! That's justice!
**[05:48] ---**
*If you think I'm wrong,
let's hear you refute me!*
**[05:52] ---**
*Well?*
**[05:53] ---**
Rin, don't listen to him!
**[05:55] ---**
Hmm? Can't do it?
**[05:57] ---**
Then, shut the hell up!
**[06:01] ---**
*You filthy, shallow hypocrites!
Go on pretending you're saints! And die!*
**[06:08] ---**
You...
**[06:10] ---**
fiend!
**[06:26] ---**
- Izumo!
- Huh?
**[06:28] ---**
What?
**[06:34] ---**
Izumo!
**[06:36] ---**
We're here to save you!
**[06:37] ---**
Over my dead body!
**[06:43] ---**
Shi—
**[06:44] ---**
Hurry up!
**[06:45] ---**
Shima!
**[06:46] ---**
Sorry, but I'm not handing Izumo over to you.
**[06:49] ---**
What happened to you? We're friends!
**[06:52] ---**
Oh, you're still going on about that?
**[06:55] ---**
When I went out of my way to warn you!
**[07:00] ---**
Knock it off!
**[07:01] ---**
You bastard!
**[07:02] ---**
Wake the hell up!
**[07:06] ---**
Izumo!
**[07:07] ---**
You first!
**[07:08] ---**
Come on!
**[07:09] ---**
Hurry!
**[07:11] ---**
What's wrong?
**[07:19] ---**
*No one...*
**[07:20] ---**
UKE
**[07:20] ---**
MIKE
**[07:34] ---**
*...can possibly...*
**[07:39] ---**
*save me.*
**[07:42] ---**
Izumo...
**[07:47] ---**
What's the matter with you? Let's go!
**[07:50] ---**
I never asked you!
**[07:53] ---**
I don't need anyone to save me!
**[07:55] ---**
Stay out of my way!
**[07:58] ---**
This is my problem and mine alone.
**[08:08] ---**
What the hell is that girl doing?
**[08:11] ---**
Rin!
**[08:15] ---**
Shima!
**[08:15] ---**
Okumura!
**[08:16] ---**
*Hey, you guys!*
**[08:18] ---**
Kuro!
**[08:19] ---**
*That way's no good anymore!*
**[08:22] ---**
Dammit! We're surrounded!
**[08:24] ---**
Kuro! You can move with all of us
on your back, right?
**[08:28] ---**
*It doesn't seem like I can say no.*
**[08:30] ---**
It's good of you to come, Izumo.
**[08:33] ---**
The appointed time has come.
**[08:38] ---**
Before we start, tell me one thing.
**[08:42] ---**
Tsukumo's really all right, isn't she?
**[08:44] ---**
Of course she is! Didn't I promise you?
**[08:50] ---**
All right, then.
**[08:52] ---**
Get started.
**[08:53] ---**
What a good girl you are, Izumo.
**[08:56] ---**
Get ready.
**[08:57] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[08:59] ---**
*Tsukumo may not really be alive anymore.*
**[09:04] ---**
*Uke and Mike are gone, too.*
**[09:09] ---**
*So, I've only got
one last chance left.*
**[09:19] ---**
*Withstand Nine Tails' possession
and seize control.*
**[09:23] ---**
*If I can control Nine Tails,
I should be able to dominate everyone here.*
**[09:29] ---**
*Gedoin, I'm going to choke
the truth out of you!*
**[09:33] ---**
*This is my final battle!*
**[09:37] ---**
...zumo...
**[09:39] ---**
Izumo...
**[09:44] ---**
Help... me...
**[09:47] ---**
*Just as you wish, I'll be glad to save you.*
**[09:51] ---**
*I...*
**[09:54] ---**
*am not like you!*
**[09:56] ---**
*I'm going to overcome Nine Tails,
no matter what!*
**[10:06] ---**
Hey you! That was for real, wasn't it?
**[10:09] ---**
Why are you doing this?
**[10:11] ---**
We all came here to rescue you guys!
**[10:13] ---**
If you're looking for Izumo,
she should be right underneath us about now.
**[10:17] ---**
Huh?
**[10:18] ---**
If you want to save her,
then go ahead and save her!
**[10:21] ---**
Hey, here it comes.
**[10:28] ---**
If I'm not mistaken, these guys are attracted
to the stronger sources of energy.
**[10:32] ---**
What?
**[10:33] ---**
Those blue flames of yours sure make great decoys,
Okumura! You made my job easier!
**[10:39] ---**
Whoa!
**[10:39] ---**
Hey, hey.
**[10:41] ---**
I don't think you can rescue
anyone looking like that, can you?
**[10:46] ---**
You have to be ready to strike
both me and this monster.
**[10:49] ---**
They've tricked you!
No, they're manipulating you!
**[10:52] ---**
Otherwise, you wouldn't do this—
**[10:55] ---**
This is the real me, you know.
**[10:59] ---**
Damn you! What about Suguro...
**[11:01] ---**
and Konekomaru?
**[11:06] ---**
What's this?
**[11:07] ---**
I'm losing my strength.
**[11:14] ---**
Let me go! Damn you!
**[11:25] ---**
*I don't need anyone to save me!*
**[11:27] ---**
*Stay out of my way!*
**[11:30] ---**
*This is the real me, you know.*
**[11:34] ---**
*Damn...*
**[11:36] ---**
*What am I...*
**[11:38] ---**
*supposed to do?*
**[12:09] ---**
It really is beautiful, isn't it?
**[12:11] ---**
Hah!
**[12:12] ---**
Divine Summoning is merely a way
to enhance Nine Tails' hunger for food.
**[12:17] ---**
The important thing
is the Mask of the Chosen.
**[12:21] ---**
This technology invented
by yours truly, a genius...
**[12:23] ---**
enables a demon to possess
a physical body by force...
**[12:26] ---**
and remain inside the host
even if they're not of the same substance.
**[12:30] ---**
Now get ready.
**[12:32] ---**
Y-Yes, sir!
**[12:51] ---**
*Here it comes...*
**[12:53] ---**
*Nine Tails!*
**[13:00] ---**
*I'm going to win...*
**[13:02] ---**
*for sure!*
**[13:09] ---**
Do as I say!
**[13:20] ---**
I'm going to—
**[13:36] ---**
Nooooo!
**[13:38] ---**
Shield!
**[13:40] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[13:44] ---**
Oh, Izumo...
**[13:45] ---**
For some reason, your compatibility rate...
**[13:49] ---**
The protection of the Inari gods...
You've almost lost it all!
**[13:53] ---**
At this rate, you're unquestionably
headed toward instant death.
**[13:55] ---**
So, Nine Tails' possession
won't take hold of you!
**[13:57] ---**
As if I'd let that happen!
**[14:00] ---**
Activate the Mask of the Chosen!
**[14:02] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[14:10] ---**
You'd better appreciate this!
**[14:12] ---**
I'm using this device to force
the possession to take hold!
**[14:17] ---**
But normally, only a Chosen One who's been
successfully enhanced by the Elixir experiments...
**[14:21] ---**
could possibly withstand this procedure!
**[14:24] ---**
Since you've lost your protection,
what's to become of you, I wonder!
**[14:27] ---**
Well, at this point, a little necrosis
to your physical body isn't a big deal!
**[14:41] ---**
*Dammit!*
**[14:43] ---**
*Those guys, talking like that...*
**[14:44] ---**
It hurts!
**[14:47] ---**
I'm so hungry...
**[14:50] ---**
It hurts...
**[14:53] ---**
*The voices of humans
who got turned into Zombies?*
**[14:57] ---**
Mother...
**[15:02] ---**
*No way!*
**[15:11] ---**
*Use your power to do something kinder.*
**[15:14] ---**
*Old man!*
**[15:16] ---**
*I'm too dumb! So, I don't know
what it is that I should do anymore!*
**[15:26] ---**
Izumo...
**[15:28] ---**
Enough with the useless resistance!
**[15:31] ---**
You just need to surrender to Nine Tails.
**[15:34] ---**
I'm sure you'll feel better then!
**[15:54] ---**
That's my girl! Keep going!
**[16:04] ---**
*So persistent!*
**[16:05] ---**
*Hurry up and yield to Nine Tails!*
**[16:16] ---**
*Tsukumo...*
**[16:21] ---**
*My precious little sister...*
**[16:26] ---**
*But I don't know
if you're alive or dead anymore.*
**[16:34] ---**
*Paku.*
**[16:36] ---**
*My one and only friend.*
**[16:40] ---**
*But I can't tell you the truth about me.*
**[16:44] ---**
*If I did, you might leave me.*
**[16:49] ---**
*I've always been all alone.*
**[16:53] ---**
*What on earth am I fighting for?*
**[16:56] ---**
*Or living for?*
**[17:00] ---**
*I'm...*
**[17:01] ---**
*so tired...*
**[17:04] ---**
*of everything.*
**[17:08] ---**
*I was sick of it all.*
**[17:10] ---**
*Of Bon and Koneko and my family.*
**[17:13] ---**
*It was all such a drag...*
**[17:14] ---**
*and I just wanted to abandon them all.*
**[17:19] ---**
*It's just like you said.*
**[17:22] ---**
*I'm no different after all.*
**[17:26] ---**
*And here I always thought that you and I were alike.*
**[17:30] ---**
*I didn't see that coming!*
**[17:31] ---**
*You're mad?*
**[17:36] ---**
*I wonder why...*
**[17:39] ---**
*I got mad.*
**[17:43] ---**
*I hate all those guys!*
**[17:47] ---**
*They all have different mindsets.*
**[17:50] ---**
*Every last...*
**[17:52] ---**
*one of them.*
**[17:54] ---**
*They all just do whatever they want!*
**[17:59] ---**
*And just being with them pisses me off!*
**[18:04] ---**
*And yet...*
**[18:06] ---**
*I...*
**[18:10] ---**
*Whenever they'd fall out for real...*
**[18:17] ---**
*I always hated it!*
**[18:21] ---**
*I guess...*
**[18:22] ---**
*I must've...*
**[18:26] ---**
*I must've really liked them all!*
**[18:31] ---**
*Really...*
**[18:34] ---**
*All of them... All of them!*
**[18:38] ---**
*I loved them all!*
**[18:40] ---**
*I loved them all, but...*
**[18:46] ---**
*Even if I've figured that out now,
it's already too late.*
**[18:55] ---**
*What an idiot I am.*
**[18:57] ---**
That's right!
**[19:00] ---**
Now hurry up and die!
**[19:02] ---**
There's no point in you being alive anymore!
**[19:07] ---**
...body...
**[19:11] ---**
help...
**[19:13] ---**
me!
**[19:14] ---**
Die!
**[19:15] ---**
Die!
**[19:17] ---**
Die for me!
**[19:58] ---**
Y-Y-You killed the Inflazombie, didn't you?
**[20:01] ---**
You had to do it to save Izumo!
Is that your reason? Huh?
**[20:04] ---**
You reviled me by calling me a "heretic,"
but how are you any different?
**[20:09] ---**
You damn hypocrite!
**[20:10] ---**
You, Lord Satan's spawn?
I'll never acknowledge you!
**[20:14] ---**
You think you're on the side of justice?
Don't delude yourself!
**[20:17] ---**
In the first place, Izumo...
**[20:18] ---**
In the first place, Izumo is willingly taking part in
this experiment! For the last five years, all this time—
**[20:29] ---**
Can't you see that she's crying?
**[20:33] ---**
Izumo! Can you get up?
**[20:35] ---**
Not good, not good, not good, not good!
**[20:38] ---**
I have to deal with this!
**[20:42] ---**
Where do you think you're going?
**[20:44] ---**
Save me!
**[20:45] ---**
Not good, not good, not good!
**[20:49] ---**
Hey! Guard boy!
**[20:51] ---**
You tell that four-eyed swine of a woman
to summon my bodyguards!
**[20:55] ---**
Did you hear that? What should I do?
**[20:58] ---**
*Keep ignoring him.*
**[20:59] ---**
Copy that. That's very helpful.
**[21:01] ---**
Are you listening?
**[21:03] ---**
Dammit, did that brat die?
**[21:05] ---**
I'm exhausted.
**[21:07] ---**
Good luck, you guys!
**[21:09] ---**
Every one of them is useless!
**[21:12] ---**
I've got it!
**[21:14] ---**
This will really buy me some time!
**[21:16] ---**
I'm a genius after all!
**[21:19] ---**
What he said is true.
**[21:22] ---**
J-Just forget about me.
**[21:25] ---**
Take my mother... and run!
**[21:28] ---**
Wha... Mother?
**[21:30] ---**
Over there.
**[23:34] ---**
