[00:00] Namari
    I'm Shuichi Namari from Shiota Chemical.
    Thank you for having me.
[00:05] Kataoka
    Even if it's just for
    a one-month internship,
[00:07] Kataoka
    a tiny company like ours couldn't be happier
     that a career Shiota employee is joining us.
[00:12] Kataoka
    On top of that, we've heard he's a first-rate
     talent with a top university education.
[00:18] Kataoka
    His boating license
    will be a boon to us as well.
[00:22] Kataoka
    We hope to put him to work on deployments
    while Muto-kun's in the hospital.
[00:28] Tajima
    Please give us your best
     in this short period.
[00:30] Namari
    Yes, sir.
[00:32] Namari
    I look forward to working with you all.
[00:34] Arumi/Miyuki
    I look forward to working with you.
[00:34] Okino
    Look forward to working with you...
[00:36] Tajima
    As for the robots and the boat...
[00:38] Tajima
    Okino-kun.
[00:40] Tajima
    You'll show him the ropes, right?
[00:42] Okino
    Who, me?
[00:43] Tajima
    Can I count on you?
[00:47] Okino
    All right.
[02:23] Okino
    Our main job is using robots to deal with
    the Giant Beasts that appear on the island.
[02:28] Okino
    The Giant Beasts are—
[02:29] Namari
    No need to explain.
     I've heard all about it.
[02:33] Namari
    I'm also aware of the secrecy mandate,
    so we can skip that, too.
[02:36] Okino
    So much for grace in the workplace.
[02:39] Okino
    Now I'll tell you about our main bot.
[02:43] Okino
    This baby's called Bullbuster.
    I based it on construction equipment—
[02:47] Namari
    I don't need an explanation of the machines.
    I've read the documentation.
[02:50] Namari
    They're simple enough devices,
    so I don't need more details.
[02:55] Okino
    Even the bipedal mode and the stun shot?
[02:59] Namari
    Of course. I have it all covered.
[03:01] Namari
    Now, could you show me to the boat?
[03:05] Namari
    That's what I'll actually
    be working with, after all.
[03:09] Okino
    This boat here is how we carry it over.
[03:12] Okino
    Once we get the call to action,
     we load up Bullbuster
[03:15] Okino
    and ferry it to Ryugan Island,
    which you can see over there.
[03:22] Okino
    Something wrong?
[03:23] Namari
    Instead of always coming and going, why not
    station the machine on the island at all times?
[03:28] Namari
    That method strikes me
     as far more efficient.
[03:31] Okino
    Surely you're aware the island
     doesn't have power, right?
[03:37] Namari
    Yes.
[03:38] Okino
    Then, surely you're aware it's impossible
     to charge it over there, right?
[03:44] Okino
    Bullbuster runs for
    60 minutes on a full charge.
[03:47] Okino
    It's gotta come back here
    after every mission.
[03:50] Okino
    It's a physical necessity.
    Efficiency doesn't enter into it.
[03:54] Namari
    I see.
[03:55] Namari
    So it's not an issue of operator error,
[03:58] Namari
    but an issue with the
    machine's own capabilities.
[04:02] Namari
    In short, the fault lies with the designer,
    who gave no thought to energy efficiency.
[04:11] Okino
    Surely you're aware 
    there's toxic gas on the island,
[04:15] Okino
    and an air purifier is
    indispensable for operating there?
[04:18] Okino
    It's going to consume a lot of electricity!
[04:21] Okino
    The stun shot's the same! The fact it runs 
    for 60 whole minutes is a freaking miracle!
[04:41] Mizuhara
    Could we set up a research team
     focusing on the Giant Beasts?
[04:47] Inomata
    We don't need to put resources into
    something that won't make a profit.
[04:51] Mizuhara
    Um... Then, would it be all right
    if I focused on the work myself?
[04:59] Inomata
    As long as it doesn't
    impact your assignments,
[05:02] Inomata
    you're free to do what you like.

[05:26] Inomata
    Hey, Mizuhara.
[05:28] Inomata
    I'd like to talk to you about something.
[05:36] Inomata
    You free tonight?
[05:39] Inomata
    It's about your first-half
    performance review.
[05:42] Mizuhara
    Um... When I'm done in here,
    we can talk in a meeting room here.
[05:46] Inomata
    Oh, come on now.
[05:48] Inomata
    I know talking on company
    property can be stifling.
[05:51] Inomata
    I'm trying to be considerate
    by offering to do it elsewhere.
[05:55] Mizuhara
    I'm sorry. I have plans tonight.
[06:01] Inomata
    How about tomorrow?
[06:07] Mizuhara
    Um... I have a visitor.
[06:09] Mizuhara
    And I'd prefer to discuss work
     during business hours.
[06:14] Inomata
    You're a real ice queen.
[06:17] Inomata
    You'll never get married
    if you keep that up, you know.
[06:25] Arumi
    Sorry to drop in unannounced.
[06:26] Arumi
    I assumed your phone would
    be off during work hours.
[06:34] Arumi
    Shiro.
[06:40] Arumi
    Please look after Shiro.
[06:43] Mizuhara
    I will.
[06:46] Mizuhara
    I'm picking up the mouse's signal again.
[06:49] Mizuhara
    I'd lost contact five hours ago.
[06:55] Mizuhara
    The signal's very unstable.
[06:57] Mizuhara
    It could cut out again at any moment.
[07:00] Mizuhara
    We have to recover it quickly.
[07:04] Okino
    That stupid know-nothing newbie.
[07:07] Okino
    He'd better start thinking before he talks.
[07:12] Okino
    A Giant Beast?
[07:13] Tajima
    I'm checking now.
[07:15] Miyuki
    There!
[07:17] Tajima
    From what we can see of its hide,
    there's a good chance it's a Giant Beast.
[07:21] Tajima
    Okino-kun, you ready to go?
[07:23] Okino
    Yup!
[07:24] Tajima
    Namari-kun, I'd like you to ready the boat.
[07:29] Tajima
    Namari-kun.
[07:31] Tajima
    I'd like you to take Okino-kun
    and Bullbuster to the island.
[07:35] Namari
    I understood the order.
[07:37] Namari
    But are you suggesting I should do it now?
[07:40] Tajima
    What's the issue? If we don't stop it, it could
    trash residences and damage infrastructure.
[07:47] Tajima
    Some of these things can even swim.
[07:49] Tajima
    We can't just let it run free.
[07:51] Okino
    C'mon, let's go.
[07:56] Namari
    I'm not going.
[07:58] Okino
    What?
[07:59] Namari
    Heading for the island now would force me
     to exceed my assigned work hours.
[08:03] Tajima
    What in the world are you...
[08:05] Namari
    Shiota Chemical's rules prohibit
    overtime during an internship period.
[08:11] Namari
    Setting out now would put me
    in violation of those rules.
[08:15] Tajima
    Well, that's true, but...
[08:18] Okino
    So bend the rules a little.
[08:21] Okino
    Fighting Giant Beasts is our duty!
[08:23] Okino
    And if we leave that thing out there, it could
    put people on the mainland in danger, too!
[08:28] Namari
    We're only obligated to perform
    that duty during work hours.
[08:32] Namari
    And the danger presented is irrelevant
    to whether or not it's in the company rules.
[08:37] Namari
    If we're obligated to take the
    public's safety into account,
[08:42] Namari
    it should have been stated in writing.
[08:48] Namari
    I'll be going now.
[08:56] Okino
    What now?
[09:00] Kataoka
    What is it?
[09:04] Tajima
    It's a mouse.
[09:05] Miyuki
    There's something on its back.
[09:07] Okino
    That's the one I released on the island!
[09:10] Tajima
    What? What are you talking about?
[09:12] Okino
    U-Um, it was for an experiment.
[09:15] Okino
    We wanted to solve the mystery ASAP, so...
[09:18] Kataoka
    Experiment?
[09:19] Kataoka
    This is the first I'm hearing about it.
[09:22] Mizuhara
    I'm sorry!
[09:23] Mizuhara
    I'm the one who proposed it.
[09:25] Tajima
    Aren't you...
[09:27] Tajima
    from Shiota Bio?
[09:30] Arumi
    Even if it's grown a bit, it's still a mouse.
[09:34] Arumi
    This is a much more
    efficient way of catching it.
[09:36] Arumi
    If another Giant Beast appears,
    you can handle it.
[09:41] Okino
    Leave it to me!
[09:42] Okino
    I'll keep you safe!
[09:44] Arumi
    Once we're in the forest,
    we could hit gas at any time.
[09:47] Arumi
    I'll wear this just in case,
    so I'm removing my headset for now.
[09:50] Okino
    Copy that!
[09:51] Okino
    If a Giant Beast shows up, I'll tota—
[09:57] Mizuhara
    Excuse me.

[10:02] Mizuhara
    Yes?
[10:03] Inomata
    It's me. Where are you now?
[10:06] Mizuhara
    I'm not sure that's an appropriate question.
[10:09] Inomata
    What? Oh, it's not about that.
[10:12] Inomata
    It's about that mutant dog thing.
[10:14] Inomata
    I got curious and looked in on it,
     and it's acting strange. It's barely breathing.
[10:19] Inomata
    I think it's about to kick the bucket.
[10:23] Mizuhara
    I'm on my way now!
[10:24] Inomata
    H-Hey!
[11:13] Arumi
    Yes!
[11:17] Arumi
    A tanuki?
[11:58] Arumi
    Damn it.

[12:42] Okino
    Gotcha.
[12:50] Okino
    Arumi-san.
[12:51] Okino
    You weren't hurt, were you?
[12:52] Arumi
    Why did you shoot it?
[12:54] Okino
    Huh? Oh, uh, well...
[12:56] Arumi
    We released the mouse as an
    experiment. It's no use to us dead.
[13:02] Okino
    But you were obviously in danger.
[13:08] Arumi
    Nikaido here. Mission accomplished.
[13:11] Miyuki
    It's an emergency, Arumi-chan!
    Come back quick!
[13:17] Arumi
    Excuse me. Is Shiro there?
[13:33] Mizuhara
    I'm sorry to come by
    before your office hours.
[13:36] Tajima
    No, not at all.
[13:38] Tajima
    Okino-kun, would you
    mind calling Nikaido-kun?
[13:42] Okino
    R-Right.
[13:44] Arumi
    Sorry I'm late.
[13:57] Okino
    Oh, no!
[13:59] Mizuhara
    After it's released, it seems to
    spend a few hours wandering the area.
[14:05] Mizuhara
    Then, five hours and
    17 minutes after its release...
[14:13] Arumi
    Hokujin Lake?
[14:15] Mizuhara
    That's when it happens.
[14:19] Tajima
    It's almost like it's drunk.
[14:26] Mizuhara
    Then we just see it drifting
    through the water for a while.
[14:30] Mizuhara
    This is where the GPS signal cuts off,
[14:33] Mizuhara
    so I can't be sure where
    the water carries the mouse.
[14:45] Mizuhara
    Unfortunately, that's the end of the video.
[14:48] Namari
    Why? It doesn't seem logical at all.
[14:51] Miyuki
    I'm sorry!
[14:52] Miyuki
    I should have explained more thoroughly.
[14:55] Kataoka
    No, Shirogane-kun, it's not your fault.
[14:58] Kataoka
    It's written right here in the contract.
[15:00] Kataoka
    We only pay bus fare if your home is
    at least 1.2 kilometers from the station.
[15:00] Okino
    We'll just have to explore the cave.
[15:04] Okino
    President?
[15:05] Namari
    And I believe that stipulation
    to be inherently flawed.
[15:06] Okino
    President Tajima!
[15:08] Namari
    It's not clear whether
    the 1.2 kilometer standard
[15:08] Okino
    Let's acquire a robot that can work
    in the water and search the lake.
[15:13] Namari
    refers to the most direct path
    or the actual distance traveled.
[15:14] Okino
    I heard Kanie Technologies once developed
     heavy equipment for undersea exploration.
[15:18] Namari
    It's not much of a regulation
    if that part isn't clear,
[15:20] Okino
    They may still have trade-ins available.
[15:22] Namari
    but in my case, the direct distance—
[15:23] Okino
    If we can repair one, it would
    probably keep the acquisition cost low.
[15:25] Kataoka
    Don't quibble with me!
    We're not compensating you for it!
[15:29] Namari
    So you are calculating it
     as direct distance?
[15:29] Okino
    President!
[15:31] Tajima
    Well, it would still be
    rather costly, wouldn't it?
[15:33] Kataoka
    Well, I suppose.
[15:35] Okino
    If it's just repairing scrap
    sitting in a warehouse,
[15:35] Namari
    Then, that should be
    specified in the contract.
[15:38] Okino
    it might only be the
    wholesale cost of the parts.
[15:38] Namari
    In its current state, the contract terms
    should be voided for lack of specificity.
[15:43] Kataoka
    It's still not happening!
[15:43] Okino
    I'll talk directly to President
    Kanie and get permission.
[15:46] Kataoka
    It's clear as day to any reasonable adult—
[15:50] Okino
    Yeah, that didn't work.
[15:52] Tajima
    Hey, it's okay.
[15:53] Tajima
    But I can't believe
    someone just beat us to it.
[15:58] Tajima
    Unlucky us, huh?
[16:00] Okino
    Sorry.

[16:11] Tajima
    I'm so sorry.
[16:13] Tajima
    I can see you called a few times.
[16:15] Shikauchi
    The truth is, I'm out on business
    in your neck of the woods.
[16:21] Shikauchi
    I had to check out a subcontractor.
[16:23] Shikauchi
    I'd just finished up there, so I thought
     I'd stop by while I had the chance.
[16:29] Shikauchi
    How about a catch-up drink? You're free, right?
[16:34] Tajima
    Well, today's a bit...

    Thank you so much!
[16:52] Kataoka
    Here, another refill.
[17:00] Shikauchi
    Putting that aside...
[17:02] Shikauchi
    I know we sent Namari to you.
[17:06] Shikauchi
    How's he been doing?
[17:07] Tajima
    N-Namari-kun?
[17:10] Tajima
    He's taking the job very seriously.
[17:13] Shikauchi
    I bet he is. His academic
     record is impeccable,
[17:17] Shikauchi
    and his company exam scores
    were top of the charts.
[17:20] Tajima
    Yes, he's a talented young man.
[17:23] Shikauchi
    Right?
[17:24] Shikauchi
    If you like him, it doesn't have to be a month.
    You can keep him as long as you want.
[17:30] Shikauchi
    What is it?
[17:31] Shikauchi
    You don't seem happy.
[17:33] Tajima
    Oh, uh, no! It's a very appealing offer.
[17:36] Tajima
    But...
[17:37] Kataoka
    Surely such a talented young professional 
    is wasted at a company like ours?
[17:42] Kataoka
    We wouldn't want to smother
    his incredible potential.
[17:46] Shikauchi
    There's no need for you
    people to worry about that.
[17:49] Shikauchi
    This is a win-win situation.
[17:52] Tajima
    What do you mean by that?
[17:55] Shikauchi
    Well, you know... For a young man
     with a brilliant future ahead of him,
[17:59] Shikauchi
    a humble business like yours
    with no pretensions to greatness...
[18:03] Shikauchi
    Oh, no offense intended.
     I mean it in a positive way.
[18:06] Shikauchi
    But we believe gaining experience at such
    a company will boost his potential greatly.
[18:13] Tajima
    Right...
[18:19] Kataoka
    I knew there was a catch.
[18:21] Tajima
    What do you mean?
[18:23] Kataoka
    I called up a friend at
    Shiota after that meetup.
[18:26] Kataoka
    Turns out he's caused all kinds of
    problems at HQ during his internship.
[18:30] Tajima
    What kinds of problems?
[18:32] Kataoka
    I didn't get any concrete details,
[18:35] Kataoka
    but apparently, all his bosses
    and coworkers despised him.
[18:40] Tajima
    His coworkers, too?
[18:43] Kataoka
    Yes. So basically...
[18:44] Kataoka
    They've pawned the nuisance off onto us.
[18:48] Kataoka
    It's not easy to fire
    someone these days, after all.
[18:49] Okino
    Namari's a nuisance?
[18:52] Kataoka
    Anyway, I wouldn't expect
    that funding boost anytime soon.
[18:57] Okino
    But then...
[18:59] Okino
    Our aquatic robot...
[19:05] Okino
    I'm going in to check
    the power infrastructure.
[19:08] Okino
    The gas sometimes blows out this far,
     so make sure you stay alert.
[19:18] sign
    Shuichi Namari
[19:19] Okino
    The hell kind of reaction was that?
[19:21] Okino
    It's like he's doing it on purpose to bug me.
[19:28] Okino
    A smartphone?
[19:35] Okino
    Do you think you'll be
    keeping him at our company, sir?
[19:39] Tajima
    What do you mean by that?
[19:41] Okino
    That guy's got serious problems!
[19:44] Okino
    He refused to take the boat out before,
    and on the island today,
[19:47] Okino
    he was playing on his smartphone
    when he was meant to be on standby!
[19:51] Okino
    I think he looks down on this job
     and everyone who does it.
[19:57] Okino
    Either way, I strongly advise
    against keeping him here at Namidome.
[20:02] Okino
    He's clearly lacking in basic empathy.
[20:05] Okino
    He's incapable of any kind
    of mutual understanding.
[20:08] Okino
    I'd love to know how you have to raise 
    someone for them to turn out that way.
[20:13] Okino
    And another thing...
[20:19] Namari
    Why are you saying such
    negative things about me?
[20:23] Tajima
    Namari-kun. Would you like to join us?
[20:27] Namari
    If I've erred in some way,
    I'd like you to tell me exactly how.
[20:31] Namari
    If you can't do that, then you're slandering
    someone who's done nothing wrong.
[20:37] Namari
    Assuming that I'm neglecting my work
[20:40] Namari
    just because I'm using
    a smartphone seems overly simplistic.
[20:44] Namari
    Your rules of behavior might
    not apply to every single person.
[20:47] Namari
    Speaking negatively of someone
    without even considering that possibility
[20:52] Namari
    is the true indicator
    of a lack of empathy, isn't it?
[20:56] Okino
    You shut up! You're definitely
    the one in the wrong here!
[21:00] Okino
    If you'd just followed orders,
[21:01] Okino
    Arumi-san could have
    been there when Shiro died!
[21:07] Namari
    If someone else was disadvantaged
    because of my actions, I'm sorry about that.
[21:12] Namari
    But expecting labor that isn't outlined
    in the rules is merely bad precedent.
[21:21] Okino
    That smarter-than-thou attitude is
    why everyone at Shiota hated you.
[21:26] Tajima
    Okino-kun.
[21:27] Namari
    What do you mean?
[21:29] Okino
    You never caught on, huh?
[21:31] Okino

[21:33] Okino

    so they sent you to our crappy little—
[21:36] Tajima
    That's enough!
[22:51] Namari
    We'll have to deal with
    them ourselves, one by one.
[22:55] Muto
    We're keeping it secret
    to help the islanders!
[22:59] Muto
    You people are doing it
    to protect yourselves!
[23:02] Tajima
    I've gotta get it together already.
[23:05] Arumi
    At 6:40 pm,
[23:07] Arumi
    the Giant Beast was eliminated.
