    My minute-by-minute schedule.
[00:07] Yosh
    A beautiful array of numbers and letters.
SIGN    Ideals
[00:10] Yosh
    It is indeed befitting of
    my duty to the people.
[00:16] Yosh
    I can't wait to get started.
[00:18] Atsoosh
    Your schedule's especially tight today.
[00:22] Atsoosh
    A counter-terrorism meeting at
    the Military Police headquarters
[00:25] Atsoosh
    and a witness testimony for a violent crime.
[00:28] Atsoosh
    There are also plenty of other high-priority
    items that can't be even a minute late.
[00:33] Atsoosh
    I think this is way too much for
    even you to handle, Kunikida-san.
[00:38] Yosh
    No!
[00:40] Yosh
    I swear on my soul that I will
    complete this masterful agenda!

    grocery shopping day.

[00:50] Yosh
    I'm sorry. You'll have to ask someone else.
[00:54] Orange
    Kunikida-san, we got some
    intel from an informant.
[00:57] Orange
    A bomber is threatening to give a briefcase
    full of explosives to a traveler,
[01:00] Orange
    to kill indiscriminately.
[01:02] Yosh
    I'll hear you out when I get back.
[01:03] Dagash
    Kunikida, we're out of snacks.
SIGN    Potato Chips
[01:07] Yosh
    There's a small stash in the
    staff kitchen cupboard.
[01:10] Yosh

[01:14] Yosh
    Finally, Dazai...
[01:15] Dunce eye
    Deeerp...
[01:16] Yosh
    Listen up! You had better not
    mess up my plans today.
[01:21] Dunce eye
    I swear on my life.
[01:24] Atsoosh
    He's totally intent on getting in the way.
[01:26] Yosh
    Oh, I don't have time to waste on this fool.
[01:31] Yosh
    Shoot, I'm eighteen seconds behind.
[01:37] Yosh
    Well, then, I'm off.
[01:49] Dunce eye
    I have a feeling something's
    going to happen today.
[01:54] Atsoosh
    I'm so sorry, Kunikida-san.
[02:22] Yosh
    The train departs at 10:47.
[02:25] Yosh
    Another 2 minutes and 15 minutes of walking.
[02:30] Yosh
    All according to plan.
SIGN    Yokohama Chinatown

    Train approaching on Track 2.

[04:11] Yosh
    If I miss this train, my whole schedule
    for the day goes up in smoke.
SIGN    Incoming Call
[04:21] A
    Your phone's ringing!

    Your phone's ringing!
[04:24] A
    Oi, pick up, man!
[04:26] A
    Oi! Kunikida!
[04:29] A
    Your phone's ringing!
[04:30] A
    Hey!
[04:31] Yosh
    What do you want, Dazai?
[04:32] Yosh
    This had better be important.
    You aren't stopping me today, otherwise.
[04:36] Dunce eye
    Sorry to interrupt you when you're busy.
[04:38] Dunce eye
    You have a guest.
[04:40] Yosh
    A guest?
[04:41] Dunce eye
    The craftsman who makes your notebook.
[04:45] Yosh
    The legendary notebook artisan?
[04:51] Yosh
    Master Carlyle?!
[04:52] Dunce eye
    That's him!
[04:54] Dunce eye
    He heard you love his notebooks,
[04:57] Dunce eye
    and he came by to see you

    on his way back to Europe.
[05:00] Yosh
    What?!
[05:01] Yosh
    Am I dreaming?
[05:02] Yosh
    All right, I'll be right back.
[05:04] Yosh
    Treat him with respect!
[05:06] A
    The train is approaching on Track 2.
[05:17] Yosh
    Dazai...
[05:19] Yosh
    You rotten coward!
[05:21] Dunce eye
    Oh, come now. I just gave you some options.
SIGN    I called anyone and everyone who could throw Kunikida off.
[05:25] Dunce eye
    Whether you choose your agenda
    or the master, you'll be happy.
[05:30] Atsoosh
    This man's a monster.
[05:32] Dunce eye
    Whatcha gonna do?
[05:36] Dunce eye
    Damn you!
[05:37] A
    The doors are now closing.
[05:39] Yosh
    T-T-Tell the master that
    I love and respect him!
[05:46] Dunce eye
    Aw.
[05:47] Atsoosh
    You sure are having fun.
[05:51] Yosh
    I did the right thing.
[05:53] Yosh
    I'm a detective who serves the people.
[05:59] Garbage bag man
    Could you take this briefcase
    to the conductor's room?
[06:02] Kid
    For the lost and found?
[06:03] Kid
    Sure.
[06:05] Kid
    I'll do it.
[06:06] Yosh
    A briefcase?
[06:10] (Flashback) Orange
    We got some intel from an informant.
[06:13] (Flashback) Orange
    A bomber is threatening to give a briefcase
    full of explosives to a traveler,
[06:17] (Flashback) Orange
    to kill indiscriminately.
[06:24] Yosh
    Stop!
[06:30] Yosh
    Oi, shrimp!
[06:32] Kid
    When you say shrimp,
    you'd better not be talking about me.
[06:39] Kid
    Thief!
[06:45] Yosh
    Damn!
[06:52] Yosh
    Everyone, get down!
[07:09] Yosh
    I'm requesting an investigation at
    Station Exit 5, under the elevated tracks.
[07:15] Yosh
    Please remain calm.
[07:17] [SONG] Text
    Kunikida
    Doppo
[07:17] Yosh
    I'm Kunikida of the Armed Detective Agency.
[07:20] Yosh
    The municipal police will be arriving soon.
[07:23] Yosh
    I ask for your cooperation
    in the investigation.
[07:27] Yosh
    I believe this could be a serial bomber.
[07:30] Yosh
    It'd be wise to contact the Military Police.
[07:32] A
    Understood.
[07:36] Yosh
    Pardon me.
[07:38] Yosh
    That was rough for you.
[07:40] Yosh
    The municipal police will be here
    soon to take you into protection.
[07:43] Kid
    I'll kill him...
[07:46] Kid
    That dongbucket!
[07:48] ---
    One thing after another!
[07:50] Yosh
    Hey! Quit tugging!
[07:52] Kid
    I heard you calling yourself
     "Kunikida of the Armed Detective Agency"
[07:55] Kid
    or some pompous crap.
[07:57] Kid
    Help me beat the crap
    out of that dongbucket!
[08:00] Yosh
    What?
[08:01] Yosh
    Are you crazy?
[08:05] Yosh
    You're a victim, and I have
    to get to my next job.
[08:08] Yosh
    Let the police take care of the rest.
[08:11] Kid
    Quit talking sense, Kunikida. It's boring.
[08:13] Yosh
    That's Kunikida*-san*.
[08:15] Yosh
    Boring or not, sense is sense.
[08:17] Kid
    Fine, but I'm the only one
    who saw the bomber's face.
[08:21] Kid
    You'd better find him, or he'll get away.
[08:23] Yosh
    So what?
[08:24] Yosh
    What could a kid like you do to help?
[08:26] Kid
    I fight for justice.
[08:29] Kid
    I practice karate every day for that, too.
[08:32] Kid
    I could never forgive myself
    if I chickened out now.
[08:36] Yosh
    No means no.
[08:38] Yosh
    I know how you feel,
     but this is likely a serial bombing.
[08:43] Yosh
    This is for the police to handle.
[08:45] Yosh
    Civilians should not get involved.
[08:47] Yosh
    Got it?
[08:49] Kid
    Crystal clear.
[08:51] Yosh
    Then I expect you to cooperate
    with the police investigation.
[08:55] Kid
    Oh no, whatever shall I do?
[08:57] Kid
    If the police come, I'm going
    to have to tell them that
[09:01] Kid
    a scary-looking man named Kunikida
    tore my clothes in a dark corner.
[09:06] Kid
    Aren't I?
[09:11] A
    Eww.
[09:12] A
    He's so low.
[09:12] B
    What? A pervert?
[09:13] C
    Are you serious?
[09:14] D
    He's got that face.
[09:18] Overalls
    Tanizaki-san, where's the boss today?
[09:21] Hair clip
    He's out on important business or something.
[09:24] Hair clip
    He said he won't be back until the evening.
[09:25] Overalls
    Who is our agency's second-in-command?
[09:30] Overalls
    The Military Police asked me who represents
    us when the President is absent.
[09:34] Hair clip
    I'm not sure how to answer that.
[09:36] Atsoosh
    Second-in-command, huh?
[09:39] Hair clip
    I guess it would have to be Rampo-san.
[09:42] Hair clip
    He has the longest and best record.
[09:44] ---
    Nope, not me!
[09:47] Hair clip
    I don't have a smidgen of interest
    in being important or in command.
[09:52] Atsoosh
    True.
[09:53] Hair clip
    Then I guess it's Dazai-san.
[09:57] Hair clip
    Hey, Dazai-san...
[10:02] Dunce eye
    How do I annoy Kunikida-kun to death?
[10:06] Atsoosh
    He's not done yet?
[10:10] Kid
    All right, Kunikida,
    let's go catch that dongbucket.
SIGN    Kouda Aya
[10:14] Aiya
    My name is Kouda Aya.
[10:16] Aiya
    You can call me Aya-chan.
[10:19] Yosh
    My day's agenda...
[10:21] Yosh
    My ideals...
[10:23] Aiya
    Man, Armed Detectives aren't
    as cool as the rumors.
[10:28] Aiya
    Buck up, Kunikida!
[10:29] Yosh
    That's Kunikida*-san*, Kouda Aya.
[10:32] Aiya
    It's Aya*-chan*!
[10:34] Aiya
    If your agenda's so important, why did
    you jump off the train to help me?
[10:41] Yosh
    My ideals.
SIGN    Ideals
[10:43] Yosh
    In my ideal world, people do not
    get murdered in front of my eyes.
[10:48] Yosh
    That's just how I felt.
[10:52] Yosh
    What's with those eyes?
[10:54] Aiya
    I feel embarrassed just listening to you.
[10:57] Yosh
    Shush!
[10:58] Yosh
    You were just saying something
    about fighting for justice, too!
[11:02] Aiya
    Kunikida.
[11:03] Yosh
    Kunikida*-san*!
[11:04] Yosh
    What do you want?
[11:06] Aiya
    What's that?
[11:11] Aiya
    Another bomb?
[11:12] Yosh
    It's likely set off by vibrations.
[11:16] Yosh
    Get back. It's dangerous.
[11:20] Yosh
    Should a train pass over these tracks,
[11:22] Yosh
    hundreds of people will die from
    the explosion and derailment.
[11:27] Yosh
    We need to contact the
    Military Police bomb disposal unit.
[11:30] Yosh
    This bomb and mode of operation, though...
[11:33] Yosh
    It can't be...
[11:38] Yosh
    If it is, there must be a radio
    device for disarming the bomb.
[11:43] Yosh
    Aya?
[12:13] Yosh
    Aya!
[12:14] A
    Put down your gun, please.
[12:17] A
    Or do you want to find out
    how far the girl will fly
[12:26] A
    when I hit the detonator?
[12:36] A
    That's my Kunikida-san!
SIGN    Ideals
[12:57] A
    This is a beautiful notebook.
[13:00] A
    Your ability is to materialize what
    you write in your notebook.
[13:06] A
    That means, if I take your notebook
     from you, you can't do anything.
[13:12] Yosh
    You've done your homework.
[13:14] A
    I'm up against the great Kunikida-san,
    after all. Of course I did.
[13:19] A
    I spent the last two years working
    diligently on this plot.
[13:22] Yosh
    I knew it was you.
[13:25] Yosh
    Katsura Shousaku.
SIGN    Katsura Shousaku
[13:27] Yosh
    I arrested you two years ago,
[13:30] Yosh
    when you were building an illegal bomb
     to try to blow up your school building.
[13:35] Yosh
    You set this trap up for revenge, I see.
[13:38] Yosh
    It was you who tipped off the Agency
    about the indiscriminate bomber, wasn't it?
[13:43] Cat's Law
    Revenge?
[13:45] Cat's Law
    No.
[13:46] Cat's Law
    I simply want to erase your words.
[13:51] Cat's Law
    You said, over and over,
    when you captured me:
[13:55] Cat's Law
    "Overcome adversity."
[13:57] Cat's Law
    "Be strong."
[13:58] Cat's Law
    "Discipline yourself and do what is right."
[14:02] Cat's Law
    I still can't get your ideals out of my mind.
[14:08] Cat's Law
    "Be strong"?
[14:10] Cat's Law
    How could you speak such words?
[14:12] Cat's Law
    Weak, so weak!
[14:14] Cat's Law
    You spout such words to beat down
    someone so weak he resorts to crime!
[14:21] Cat's Law
    Do you think the weak are weak
    because they want to be?
[14:32] Cat's Law
    You don't have time to be
    unconscious, Kunikida-san.
[14:36] Cat's Law
    There's five minutes until the train
    passes over the rigged tracks.
[14:41] Cat's Law
    The disarming signal can only
    be sent from this laptop.
[14:45] Cat's Law
    You're going to remain powerless to stop
    the explosion, leaving hundreds to die.
[14:49] Cat's Law
    In that moment, the cheap ideals
    you've written in this book
[14:55] Cat's Law
    along with your pride in being an
    Armed Detective, will be lost.
[14:59] Aiya
    Kunikida!
[15:02] Yosh
    That's Kunikida*-san*.
[15:06] Yosh
    Katsura, my response to your words is
    already written in that notebook.
[15:14] Yosh
    Open to page 89.
[15:21] Yosh
    Special ability... Doppo Poet.
SIGN    Stun Grenade
[15:25] Yosh
    Stun Grenade!
[15:27] Aiya
    He activated it without holding it!
[15:39] A
    What was that noise?
[15:41] B
    Dunno.
[15:45] C
    What the hell?
[15:49] Yosh
    That's my answer.
[15:51] Yosh
    One can't attain their ideals
    with conviction alone.
[15:54] Yosh
    My ability has improved with time, as well.
[15:58] Yosh
    Aya, are you all right?
[15:59] Aiya
    Kunikida!
[16:00] Aiya
    Don't mind me, do something
    about the bombs on the tracks!
[16:03] Aiya
    Hurry!
[16:05] Yosh
    All right.
[16:06] Yosh
    Hang on.
[16:12] Yosh
    No, it can't be...
[16:16] Aiya
    Kunikida?
[16:17] ---
    Don't move, Aya.
[16:20] Cat's Law
    That's right.
[16:23] Cat's Law
    The disarm signal for the
    bombs set on the tracks
[16:26] Cat's Law
    is the same frequency as the detonate
    signal for the bomb fixed to that girl.
[16:33] Cat's Law
    Are you sure?
[16:36] Cat's Law
    Try to take it off with force and it'll explode.
[16:42] Cat's Law
    In other words, you can only save either
    the girl or the passengers on the train.
[16:53] Yosh
    You...
[16:55] Yosh
    You anticipated this.
[16:58] Cat's Law
    You told me you'd never allow
    anyone to die in front of your eyes.
[17:04] Cat's Law
    That's one of your ideals, isn't it?
[17:07] Cat's Law
    But between hundreds of passengers
    and one girl, there's no comparison.
[17:15] Cat's Law
    Now, kill that girl, and prove to me that
    your ideals are nothing but a fantasy.
[17:23] Cat's Law
    That you're nothing but a
    human being, just as I am!
[17:31] Yosh
    You're correct.
[17:34] Yosh
    Even after resisting
    tooth-and-nail, people die.
[17:40] Yosh
    Cruel, heartless, and without
    a hint of idealism.
[17:44] Yosh
    That is our world.
[17:49] Yosh
    Yet, even if the future offers
    nothing but pain and misery,
[17:55] Yosh
    I will pursue my ideals.
[17:59] Cat's Law
    That's right.
[18:00] Cat's Law
    Your only option is to sacrifice the girl.
[18:06] Yosh
    I'm sorry, Aya.
[18:11] Aiya
    Oh, well.
[18:13] Aiya
    I fight for justice.
[18:17] Cat's Law
    No!
[18:19] Yosh
    I won't let you suffer alone.
[18:48] Cat's Law
    Committing suicide with the girl.
[18:50] Cat's Law
    That's how your life ends, huh?
[18:56] Cat's Law
    What?
[18:58] Cat's Law
    Impossible.
[19:01] Cat's Law
    You're unharmed!
[19:02] Yosh
    You should have done more research.
[19:11] Yosh
    In the Detective Agency, severe injuries
    are the same as no injury at all.
[19:16] A
    I'm so used to hearing that stun grenade.
[19:20] Yosh
    I'd made a record in my
    notebook that Yosano-sensei
[19:26] Yosh
    would be at the station around
    this time, shopping.
[19:31] Cat's Law
    Then that stun grenade was a distress signal
     intended for your agency members.
[19:37] Aiya
    Seriously, what were you going to
    do if help didn't arrive on time?
SIGN    Ideals
[19:43] Yosh
    I told you...
[19:48] Yosh
    I won't let anyone be killed
    in front of my eyes.
[20:01] A
    No, Boss, it's nothing.
[20:04] A
    It appears to have been a foolish attack
    by someone who resents the Agency.
[20:09] A
    I could have enjoyed it some if he'd
    at least gone after that dimwit Dazai.
[20:15] A
    Then again, that hooligan
    wouldn't have stood a chance.
[20:23] Aiya
    Say, Kunikida...
[20:25] Aiya
    I doubt a dense idealist like you
    would have a girlfriend or a wife.
[20:31] Yosh
    Well...
[20:32] Aiya
    If you really want, I could...
[20:39] Yosh
    Aya...
[20:44] Yosh
    Of the 58 conditions of my Spousal Plan Project,
    you fail to meet 31 of them.
[20:51] Yosh
    I decline.
[20:52] Aiya
    What?!
[20:53] Yosh
    And it's Kunikida*-san*.
[20:55] Yosh
    Have respect for your seniors.
[20:57] Yosh
    You won't grow up to be a proper—
[21:09] Older
    The older you get, the more you can't
    help but worry about the future.
[21:16] Not yet
    Thank you.
[21:18] Older
    I believe that the special ability business
    permit was given to you personally.
[21:25] Older
    Perhaps I'm stressing over nothing,
[21:27] Older
    but I worry about what might
    happen to the Detective Agency
[21:30] Older
    if the unspeakable were to happen to you.
[21:34] Not yet
    Of course, I have put some thought into what
    should happen to the Agency should I die.
[21:43] Dunce eye
    Who's the next president of
    the Armed Detective Agency?
[21:47] Dunce eye
    Actually...
[21:50] Dunce eye
    Someone's already been chosen.
[21:51] Left
    Huh?
[21:52] Middle
    I never knew.
[21:54] Right
    Who is it?
[21:58] Dunce eye
    He's a flag-bearer.
[22:01] Dunce eye
    Unwavering, unyielding,
    and aware of the weak.
[22:06] Dunce eye
    A man fit to be a leader.
[22:09] Dunce eye
    It could be no one but Kunikida-kun.
