I'm Tomoshibi Arajin.
**[00:05] Arajin**
My hobby is music. I play bass in a band.

you come talk to me later?

Ugh. I drank too much.

Yeah, one too many of those shots.
**[00:30] Boy B**
Huh?
**[00:31] Boy A**
Up I go. An earthquake?
**[00:34] Boy B**
Nah.
**[00:39] Boy A**
You know that legend about
a Honki Person being sealed away?
**[00:42] Boy B**
Idiot. That old story?
**[00:55] Narr**
"A Honki Person is one who finds
a heart that does not flee."
**[01:01] Narr**
In the age of samurai, there were those who
threw away the sword, put down the helmet,
**[01:06] Narr**
and adorned with nothing other than Honki,
**[01:12] Narr**
devoted themselves fully
to reaching the top.
**[01:18] Narr**
Those are the ones known as...
**[01:22] Narr**
the Honki People!

***SIGN*** Minato Kai

each other for the top spot.
**[03:25] Arajin**
Ugh.
**[03:26] Teacher**
However, you don't seem
interested in that sort of thing.
**[03:29] Arajin**
Are there any cuties in class?
**[03:32] Teacher**
Huh? Well, I guess so.
**[03:36] Arajin**
Yes!
**[03:39] Arajin**
*Cuties in class?*

Huh?
**[04:58] Mahoro**
If it's the same way,
wanna walk home together?

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm!

And who might you be?

**[06:32] Matakara**
So, did you move back here?
**[06:34] Arajin**
Mm-hmm.
**[06:40] Matakara**
This is my childhood buddy, Ara-chan.
**[06:42] Matakara**
We trained together when we
were little. To be Honki People.
**[06:47] Matakara**
Ara-chan was super tough!
**[06:50] Komao**
Huh! He sure doesn't look it. Right?
**[06:54] Zabu**
But that's ancient history, right?
**[06:56] Matakara**
Hey, we're going batting now.
Why don't you come with?

Sorry. I got something else.

Thank you very much!
**[08:18] Samaru**

For example, Sagara Yoshihi
and Kai Soun in Kyushu.
**[09:15] (Flashback) Yayako**
Put some love in your bang bang chicken!
**[09:17] Arajin**
Damn hag.
**[09:19] Mahoro**
That's so cute.
**[09:20] Arajin**
Huh?
**[09:31] Arajin**
You aren't going to class?
**[09:35] Mahoro**
I guess I'm skipping.
**[09:36] Arajin**
*Ooh!*
**[09:38] Arajin**
Sorry about yesterday. I got
cornered by some weird guys.
**[09:42] Mahoro**
It's okay. But hey, is it okay if...
**[09:46] Mahoro**
you and I become friends?
**[09:48] Arajin**
Of course! I also...
**[09:50] Arajin**
I wanted to become friends
with you too, Jin-san.
**[09:54] Mahoro**
You can call me Mahoro.
**[09:56] Mahoro**
Arajin-kun.
**[09:58] Arajin**
*First-name-calling hype!*
**[10:01] Mahoro**
Are you free on Saturday?
**[10:02] Arajin**
Huh?!
**[10:04] Arajin**
Um... does that mean for... a da—
**[10:08] Matakara**
Ara-chan!
**[10:12] Arajin**
Jeez.
**[10:16] Zabu**
That dude.
**[10:17] Zabu**
Is he really that tough?
**[10:19] Zabu**
He didn't look that way to me.
**[10:22] Matakara**
Ara-chan is.
**[10:24] Matakara**
He's strong, brave, cool...
**[10:28] Matakara**
I really admire him.
**[10:32] Zabu**
I don't get it.
**[10:35] Komao**
Oh!
**[10:37] Zabu**
Huh?
**[10:37] Komao**
Yo, isn't that Mahoro?
**[10:40] Komao**
Oh, crap. Better tell Matakara about this.
**[10:44] Zabu**
Weekend's coming up. We're gonna see
the old Ichi High tradition.
**[10:48] Arajin**
These are such great colors!
**[10:50] Arajin**
But do I pick color over carvability?
**[10:54] Arajin**
Oh! It's a legendary chicken-blood stone!
**[10:57] Arajin**
This color, this texture... the real thing!
**[11:04] Komao**
What? Hell no!
**[11:06] Zabu**
I'm real sorry about before.
**[11:09] Arajin**
That's okay.
**[11:10] Zabu**
Hey, let's try to get along.
**[11:13] Komao**
What? Again?
**[11:14] Komao**
That's dirty, man!
**[11:16] Zabu**
Clean and dirty don't mean shit in battle.
**[11:19] Zabu**
Right, Ara-chan?
**[11:21] Arajin**
Huh?
**[11:28] Komao**
Oh yeah, oh yeah? That'll finish you—
**[11:30] Komao**
Oh?
**[11:36] Arajin**
Yes!
**[11:38] NG 1**
You're really good, kid. You go to Ichizu?
**[11:42] NG 1**
From what I can see, it doesn't look
like you're in Minato or Siguma.
**[11:47] Arajin**
Of course not! I have
nothing to do with them!
**[11:52] NG 3**
And you waltz in here to play
like you own the place?
**[11:55] NG 2**
You think you can just
piss all over our turf?
**[11:57] Arajin**
I-I just transferred
from a different school...
**[12:01] Arajin**
Please excuse me!

You're our 100th catch. Congrats.

Punk!
**[12:10] NG 1**
You're leaving your briefs too!
**[12:13] Zabu**
I knew he wasn't that tough.
**[12:21] NG 3**
Hold it, boxer boy!
**[12:26] NG 1**
Stop right there!

Welcome in!
**[12:30] Employee**
Which girl would you prefer?
**[12:33] Teacher**
Well...
**[12:36] Teacher**
I'll take Jasmine-chan.
**[12:37] Employee**
Great! Customer for Jasmine-chan!
**[12:41] Teacher**
I've never been to
this kind of place before.
**[12:43] Teacher**
Oh! Is it all right if I call you
Jasmine-chan?
**[12:50] NG 1**
There he is! Stop right there!
**[12:52] NG 2&3**
Don't move! Hey!
**[12:57] NG 2**
Come out, damn it!
**[12:59] NG 1**
Open up!
**[13:00] Arajin**
*What is their problem?!*
**[13:06] Arajin**
Huh?
**[13:12] Arajin**
Stay back!
**[13:14] NG 1**
What're you gonna do with a toy like that?!
**[13:19] Arajin**
I said stay back!
**[13:20] NG 3**
You're dead meat.
**[13:28] Arajin**
Croak?
**[13:32] NG 2**
Eww.
**[13:33] NG 1**
That's just sick.
**[13:35] NG 1**
Hey, wait up!
**[13:44] Arajin**
Damn, my head hurts.
**[13:46] Arajin**
The hell is this?
**[13:49] Arajin**
Huh?
**[14:10] Senya**
I am Senya, the Majin.
**[14:13] Senya**
Now, tell me your wish!
**[14:20] Senya**
Wow, you look like a wimp.
**[14:23] Senya**
Is this another miss?
**[14:25] Arajin**
Huh?
**[14:27] Arajin**
Ma-Majin?
***SIGN*** Honki Shrine
**[14:29] Senya**
Yeah. You know how you spell the
word "Honki" but can read it as "Maji"?

you can read it Ma-ji-n.

Yeah! Pretty much.
**[14:46] Senya**
Now, tell me what you wish for!
**[14:50] Arajin**
What I... wish for?
**[14:54] Senya**
You want wealth? Honor? Power?!
**[15:00] Arajin**
I want to lose my virginity.
**[15:03] Arajin**
I guess.
**[15:06] Senya**
Sure, that works! You are a boy, after all.
**[15:10] Arajin**
What? Seriously?
**[15:11] Senya**
So whaddya say? Wanna merge with this guy?
**[15:16] Arajin**
Merge? Merge?! Shut the hell up!
**[15:18] Arajin**
With the likes of you? Hell no!
**[15:22] Arajin**
Um, are you able to see him?
**[15:28] Zabu**
So then he took off in nothing but underwear.
**[15:32] Komao**
It still cracks me up to think about it!
**[15:34] Zabu**
Yeah, it was a whole new level of pathetic.
**[15:37] Matakara**
Well, Ara-chan is a real gentle guy.
**[15:41] Matakara**
He actually hates fighting, you know.
**[15:44] Matakara**
I guess he hasn't changed much.
**[15:47] Zabu**
Yeah, I doubt that.

***SIGN*** Imaginary Friend
***SIGN*** As understood in psychology and psychiatry,
this refers to a fictional companion. It exists only
within the subject's imagination. While most of
such friends appear in human form, some are
imagined as non-human figures such as
animals or fairies.
The friend may speak to the subject or play
with the subject and serves as a kind of
emotional support.

Why stone? Wouldn't paper
be better? Ya think?
**[16:21] Arajin**
That wouldn't get my message across!
**[16:24] Arajin**
This will protect her for eternity.
A love forever stone.
**[16:29] Arajin**
Basically, it will reincarnate
Tomoshibi Arajin as Jin Arajin.
**[16:33] Arajin**
It is the embodiment of me!
**[16:35] Senya**
Sorry. No clue what you mean.
**[16:45] Yayako**
Ooh, that's so neat! What's it for?
**[16:48] Yayako**

**[17:20] Mahoro**
Did you wait long?
**[17:21] Arajin**
No, no!
**[17:22] Mahoro**
Weren't you just talking to someone?
**[17:25] Arajin**
Just mumbling to myself!
**[17:29] Mahoro**
Okay, let's go.

So what next?
**[17:34] Couple (I) Woman**

Aren't you gonna give her the rock? Hey.
**[17:46] Arajin**
Shut up!
**[17:47] Arajin**
Ah...
**[17:49] Arajin**
Um, never mind that!
**[18:02] Mahoro**
I'm really so happy
**[18:05] Mahoro**
that you transferred
to my school, Arajin-kun.
**[18:11] Senya**
It's now! Now! Go, boy! Make your damn move!
**[18:14] Senya**
If you don't go now, you never will!
**[18:17] Senya**
Don't you dare chicken out!
**[18:19] Arajin**
I'll show you then!
**[18:21] Senya**
Right on!
**[18:25] Mahoro**
I just heard something weird.
**[18:28] Arajin**
Huh?
**[18:31] Mahoro**
Are you feeling sick?
**[18:33] Arajin**
No... I just...
**[18:46] Arajin**
This happens to me every single time.
**[18:51] Arajin**
Um, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
**[18:57] Mahoro**
Well, at least you made it in time.
**[19:03] Arajin**
Mahoro-chan!
**[19:11] Arajin**
Here!
**[19:13] Mahoro**
What is that stone?

We're here.

Ungh...
**[19:53] Arajin**
Um, may I ask who you are?
**[19:56] Marito**
Hmm. I'm the

head of Siguma Squad.
**[20:03] Marito**
Jin Marito.
**[20:07] Arajin**
Ah, right! Well done, sir!
**[20:10] Arajin**
Let's get going, Mahoro-chan.
**[20:14] Mahoro**
Arajin-kun.
**[20:17] Arajin**
Oh... huh?
**[20:18] Mahoro**
Will you fight for me?
**[20:21] Arajin**
Ho— Wow!
**[20:25] Marito**
You've got some nerve
**[20:28] Marito**
putting your hands on my little sister.
**[20:31] Arajin**
Little sister?!
**[20:35] Matakara**
What's up, bringing me way out here?
**[20:38] Zabu**
Check it out.
**[20:43] Matakara**
Ara-chan?!
**[20:45] Zabu**
Think he'll make it out alive?
**[20:54] Zabu**
Ah... wait!

Get your ass up!

because of me? He's so cool!

**[21:20] Sigma G**
Poor guy.

*Even if I merged with this kid,*
