[00:00] Tonan     In recognition of the Armed Detective Agency's      considerable contributions SIGN    One month has passed. SIGN    Futsuma Shikyu Award Ceremony [00:07] Tonan     to the safety of the city and people of     Yokohama during the White Whale Incident, [00:12] Tonan     we award the Futsuma Shikyu Award. [00:20] Tonan     Your Agency is the pride of our nation. [00:24] Man A     Has a private company ever been     awarded the Shikyu Award? [00:28] Man B     It's easy to see why. [00:30] Man B     They captured Pushkin and Fyodor after     the European authorities failed to do so. [00:35] Man B     Rumor has it that the      Detective Agency's been tapped [00:38] Man B     as special advisers to the     municipal police combat squad. [00:41] Man A     If that's true, the Special Investigation     Department has fresh mud on its face. [00:45] Tonan     They have no reason to be ashamed. [00:47] Tonan     That's just how capable the     Armed Detective Agency is. [00:51] Man A     Well, hello, Assistant Senior Attorney. [00:54] Tonan     This is unofficial, [00:55] Tonan     but it was the Detective Agency that     prevented the crash of the whale airship. [01:00] Man A     That's impressive. [01:02] Tonan     I believe that, soon enough,     the Armed Detective Agency [01:04] Tonan     will be carrying the weight of     this nation's center of power. [02:44] Kunikida     I told you to stop attacking head-on. [02:47] Atsushi     But... [02:48] Kunikida     Don't let your power control you. [02:50] Kunikida     It's when you're drowning in the     tiger's power that you always lose. [02:54] Kunikida     To put it bluntly: the tiger is strong,     but you're weak. [03:02] Kunikida     It's time for work. [03:03] Kunikida     Let's go. [03:05] Yosano     A murder society? [03:07] Kunikida     Yes. [03:08] Kunikida     It's an urgent request from the government. [03:10] Kunikida     First, here's a photo of the victim. [03:13] Atsushi     Terrible. [03:15] Kunikida     The victim was a young diet member. [03:17] Kunikida     As you can see, the victim had the     skin of his upper body torn off [03:21] Kunikida     and was forced to wear it inside out. [03:22] Yosano     He's got some interesting taste, doesn't he? [03:25] Kunikida     There have been four such incidents in the     past week, perpetrated by the same culprit. [03:29] Kunikida     The vice commander of the Coast Guard. [03:31] Kunikida     Killed by a powerful corrosive      being poured on his head. [03:34] Kunikida     Ministry of Defense External Defense,     Department Chief Secretary [03:37] Kunikida     Injected with high density     air using an air compressor, [03:41] Kunikida     leading to expulsion of all blood     from his pores and subsequent death. SIGN    kill me [03:44] Kunikida     Lastly, a top military envoy. [03:47] Kunikida     An intensely pain-inducing plant from      South America, known as the suicide weed, [03:50] Kunikida     was implanted in his armpit.     He was then locked in a room. [03:53] Kunikida     He slammed his own head against the wall,     causing cerebral contusion and death. [03:57] Rampo     Aha... [03:58] Rampo     The Decay of Angels. [04:00] Rampo     It's a message from the murderer. [04:01] Atsushi     The Decay of Angels? [04:04] Fukuzawa     The Decay of Angels... [04:05] Fukuzawa     refers to the five signs that angels, at the     pinnacle of the sixth path of existence, [04:09] Fukuzawa     exhibit before their death. [04:12] Kunikida     President. [04:13] Fukuzawa     The robe becomes stained with grime and oils. [04:17] Fukuzawa     The crown wilts and rots. [04:20] Fukuzawa     The body becomes dirty and odorous. [04:24] Fukuzawa     Sweat pours out of the armpits. [04:28] Tanizaki     So this is a serial murder making      a deliberate display of brutality? [04:32] Atsushi     Just a second. [04:33] Atsushi     There have only been four murders. [04:35] Kunikida     Of the five omens,     dissatisfaction and apathy remain. [04:38] Atsushi     Therefore, there's going to be one more murder. [04:40] Fukuzawa     There will not. [04:42] Fukuzawa     We will stop it before it happens. [04:44] Fukuzawa     We will all commit to putting     an end to this villain's scheme. [04:48] Rampo     I disagree. [04:51] Fukuzawa     Rampo. Your reason? [04:53] Rampo     My friend gave me a warning. [04:54] (Flashback) Mushitaro     The Detective Agency is about      to get a huge job offer! [04:57] (Flashback) Mushitaro     Don't accept it! [04:58] (Flashback) Mushitaro     If you do, it'll be the end of the Agency! [05:03] Rampo     I'm turning down this job. [05:05] Fukuzawa     Have you seen the     Futsuma Shikyu Award in my office? [05:09] Fukuzawa     That is the honor of the century for     those of us who protect people. [05:13] Rampo     You're telling me to take the     job because we got a bow? [05:15] Fukuzawa     No. [05:17] Fukuzawa     That is just a piece of wood. [05:20] Fukuzawa     Awards and accolades are     no more than set dressing. [05:24] Fukuzawa     Even if we were honorless     thieves in a basement, [05:27] Fukuzawa     we would risk our lives to stop this murder. [05:31] Rampo     Do what you want, then. [05:33] Kunikida     Rampo-san! [05:34] Fukuzawa     Don't stop him, Kunikida. [05:36] Fukuzawa     The Agency will pursue the murderer. [05:38] Fukuzawa     And Rampo will pursue the facts     behind the Agency's coming demise. [05:43] Fukuzawa     A dual investigation. [05:44] Fukuzawa     Rampo knows full-well that's     the most optimal solution. SIGN    Episode 43 SIGN    Tragic Sunday [05:50] Atsushi     Apathy and dissatisfaction     with one's position... [05:58] Atsushi     Yes? [05:59] Ango     This is Sakaguchi of the     Special Operations Division. [06:01] Ango     I have been unable to contact Dazai-kun. [06:04] Ango     Do you happen to know his whereabouts? [06:06] Atsushi     No. [06:07] Ango     Then please convey a message to the Agency     staff regarding the serial murder victims: [06:13] Ango     There is evidence that the victims'     bodyguard rosters and itineraries [06:16] Ango     were tampered with and      modified by government figures. [06:21] Ango     It may be that the Decay of Angels is the     alternate identity of a government body. [06:27] Ango     Please be careful. [06:30] Tonan     Hey, there. [06:32] Atsushi     You're from the Department of Justice. [06:34] Tonan     I appreciate your hard work. [06:36] Tonan     You're a newcomer at the     Detective Agency, aren't you? [06:38] Tonan     How's the investigation coming? [06:41] Atsushi     We're going through the entire list      of dangerous Gifted, but nothing yet. [06:45] Tonan     Who were you on the phone with? [06:47] Atsushi     Oh, that was... [06:49] (Flashback) Ango     There's evidence they were tampered     with by government figures. [06:56] Atsushi     Oh, I was just asked to     run a few more errands. [06:59] Atsushi     Never mind me. [07:01] Atsushi     What brings you here, sir? [07:03] Tonan     Oh, I just happened to spot you as I was     enjoying coffee at the shop over there. [07:09] Atsushi     I can use my tiger's sense of smell. [07:15] Atsushi     I don't smell coffee. [07:18] Tonan     Is something the matter? [07:19] Atsushi     No, nothing at all! [07:21] Atsushi     Anyway, I have to go feed the     boss's chameleon and stuff. [07:24] Atsushi     Pardon me! [07:28] Tonan     That's fine. [07:30] Tonan     The Armed Detective Agency's     doom today is already decided. [07:42] Jouno     Which horse came in first? [07:46] Dazai     I see. He's blind. [07:49] Dazai     Number Nine. [07:50] Jouno     Thank you. [07:52] Jouno     You won, didn't you? [07:53] Dazai     Oh, can you tell? [07:55] Jouno     Yes. [07:56] Jouno     Your sweat, body temperature,     the sound of your muscles... [07:59] Jouno     There's more that I can see,     now that I've lost my sight. [08:03] Jouno     I can even predict your fate tomorrow. [08:07] Jouno     You won't have a tomorrow, [08:09] Jouno     former Port Mafia Executive, Dazai Osamu. [08:12] Jouno     138 counts of aggravated murder. [08:15] Jouno     312 counts of intimidation. [08:17] Jouno     A total of 625 charges, including fraud     and more, for which I'm arresting you. [08:21] Tonan     Gentlemen, the Hunting Dogs have arrested     one of the members of the Agency. [08:25] Agent A     Ah! [08:26] Agent B     Finally. [08:27] Tonan     Sheltering the murderer of 35. [08:29] Tonan     Association with the Mafia. [08:31] Tonan     The female doctor is suspected     of murdering a patient [08:33] Tonan     during her time as a combat medic. [08:35] Tonan     We shall expose them for these crimes     and dismantle the Detective Agency. [08:38] Tonan     This is the moment our     organization has waited for. [08:46] Secretary (Nikolai)     Tonan-sensei. [08:48] Secretary (Nikolai)     I've gathered the documents. [08:51] Secretary (Nikolai)     Orders sent to Fukuzawa for the assassination [08:53] Secretary (Nikolai)     of pro-war individuals at the end of the war. [08:56] Tonan     The Armed Detective Agency won't     survive the publication of this information. [09:00] Tonan     And the list of targets for assassination?

[09:23] Tonan     I ought to meet with them in person. [09:25] Secretary (Nikolai)     I've already arranged for an interview. [09:28] Tonan     Oh? [09:29] Tonan     When? [09:30] Tonan     Right now. [09:39] Secretary (Nikolai)     Thank you for all you've done for     me these past six months, sir. [09:43] Secretary (Nikolai)     Now, then, quiz time! [09:44] Secretary (Nikolai)     Why didn't I kill you just now? [09:49] Secretary (Nikolai)     The answer is: because you're going to hate [09:51] Secretary (Nikolai)     going back to your own     station before you die! [09:56] Dazai     You got me. [09:58] Dazai     I knew I was being tracked, [10:00] Dazai     but I guess hiding in a crowd was      no use against the Hunting Dogs. [10:04] Dazai     You're going to take me out     along with the whole crowd. [10:07] Jouno     I can hear your rage. [10:09] Jouno     Soon it'll turn into fear of your punishment. [10:13] Jouno     I can't wait for that moment. [10:15] Dazai     We're going to get along great. [10:18] Dazai     Just tell me one thing:     why did you come arrest me now? [10:23] Jouno     Fingerprints, recordings, photos... [10:26] Jouno     All manner of evidence suddenly reemerged, [10:30] Jouno     as though a switch had just been thrown. [10:37] Mushitaro     It was about my special     ability from the beginning. [10:40] Mushitaro     You wanted to reverse a perfect     murder and restore guilt. [10:46] Mushitaro     That's why you lured me in. [10:49] Nikolai     Huy! [10:50] Nikolai     What's upsy-daisy! [10:52] Nikolai     So, Armed Detective Agency, I'm going     to give you four pieces of information. [10:57] Nikolai     First! [10:59] Nikolai     I restrained government     bigwigs with fun machines. [11:02] Nikolai     It's the chainsaw human disassembly show! [11:05] Nikolai     As soon as the time comes,     he'll be cut clean into two! [11:08] Kunikida     Dissatisfaction and apathy. [11:09] Nikolai     Second! [11:11] Nikolai     If someone who isn't a member     of the Detective Agency comes in, [11:13] Nikolai     the chainsaw will activate automatically. [11:16] Nikolai     Third! [11:17] Nikolai     The chainsaw will activate at exactly 6 PM. [11:20] Nikolai     And fourth... [11:24] Nikolai     Dammit! [11:25] Nikolai     I just realized there isn't a fourth! [11:27] Nikolai     Oh, no! [11:29] Nikolai     You! [11:30] Nikolai     Any ideas? [11:31] Nikolai     Crap, this is an on-air oopsie! [11:33] Nikolai     Stop the camera! [11:34] Nikolai     The camera! [11:37] Kunikida     Thirty more minutes. [11:39] Rampo     Understood. [11:41] Rampo     Be careful. [11:43] Rampo     Given he's demanding that an      Agency member enters first, [11:46] Rampo     you'd be crazy not to suspect a trap. [11:49] Kunikida     Do you have any idea what they're after? [11:53] Rampo     I got this. [11:54] Rampo     I'm standing in front of the clue right now. [12:02] Rampo     I smell blood. [12:08] Rampo     Chief Taneda! [12:11] Taneda     Fukuzawa's detective kid... [12:17] Taneda     I know what Decay of Angels is after. [12:23] (Flashback) Kunikida     It'll take at least ten minutes     for all of us to arrive. [12:27] (Flashback) Kunikida     You are to go in first and      stop the timer device. [12:32] Atsushi     It might be dangerous to     charge in from the front. [12:35] Atsushi     I think I'll have to use the     underground escape route. [12:46] Nikolai     You're even more nimble     than you're rumored to be, [12:50] Nikolai     Tiger boy. [12:52] Nikolai     My name is Nikolai! [12:55] Nikolai     Okies, it's quiz time! [12:57] Nikolai     What is my special ability? [13:00] Atsushi     The hand he has in his cape     shows up elsewhere in space. [13:04] Atsushi     A matter teleportation ability? [13:06] Nikolai     Bingo! [13:08] Nikolai     My special ability lets me connect my cape     with a point somewhere else in space. [13:12] Nikolai     I have a range of roughly 30 meters. [13:15] Atsushi     So, even if I hide, he'll still shoot me. [13:17] Atsushi     Fine! [13:18] Nikolai     Yipes. [13:23] Nikolai     Tiger fangs! [13:24] Atsushi     You're mine! [13:31] Nikolai     I went and dropped a utility     pole from the surface. [13:37] Taneda     Decay of Angels is a criminal     organization comprised of five people. [13:42] Taneda     Jester Nikolai. [13:43] Taneda     Demon Fyodor. [13:45] Taneda     And three more special rank,     dangerous Gifted. [13:49] (Flashback) Mitamura     We'll wipe out all the Gifted     rotting this country's foundations. [13:54] (Flashback) Rampo     I see. [13:56] (Flashback) Rampo     V is an organization of Gifted     brought together to drive out Gifted. [14:02] Rampo     V as in five. [14:03] Rampo     The five death omens of an angel! [14:06] Taneda     And one of them has the ability to exchange     information that the others want. [14:12] Taneda     That's who wounded me. [14:14] Rampo     So then... [14:15] Taneda     They stole information. [14:17] Taneda     From here. [14:20] Taneda     On the other hand,     I learned what their goal is. [14:23] Rampo     I'm going to contact the     Special Operations Division. [14:26] Rampo     You need a doctor. [14:26] Taneda     Listen to me! [14:28] Taneda     They've used my memories to     steal a page from a book. [14:32] Rampo     A page? [14:34] Taneda     A blank novel that makes anything     written in it become reality. [14:38] Taneda     It's a page from that book,     torn out to use for research. [14:46] Atsushi     His special ability is strong. [14:49] Nikolai     Guess I'll just go ahead and restrain you. [14:57] Atsushi     It's not just powerful in combat. [14:59] Atsushi     This ability could be used for raids,     burglary, eavesdropping, abduction... [15:03] Atsushi     He could do anything. [15:05] Atsushi     He's the one who killed     the government officials! [15:10] Atsushi     Why? [15:12] Atsushi     Why do you kill people? [15:13] Atsushi     And so horribly? [15:17] Nikolai     The four I killed asked     me that same question. [15:21] Nikolai     And I have two answers. [15:24] Nikolai     This is the first one: because it's fun! [15:29] Nikolai     Because it's so damn fun     and gets me so excited! [15:33] Nikolai     Sounds like a plausible answer, doesn't it? [15:36] Nikolai     You're killed by a monster     without a speck of humanity. [15:39] Nikolai     It's an injustice,     but it's easy to understand. [15:40] Nikolai     You can die with a sense of closure. [15:43] Nikolai     But you aren't a monster's victim      when I murder you. [15:46] Nikolai     So I'll tell you the second, real reason. [15:51] Nikolai     I'm perfectly sane. [15:54] Nikolai     I understand how evil killing is and      feel as much guilt as anyone. [16:00] Nikolai     Do you like birds? [16:03] Nikolai     I love them. [16:05] Nikolai     They fly, unbound whatsoever     by gravity. Total freedom. [16:09] Nikolai     That's my wish. [16:11] Nikolai     That's why I joined Decay of Angels. [16:14] Taneda     The page stolen by Decay of Angels [16:18] Taneda     has the same power as the book itself. [16:22] Taneda     But there's a rule to using the book. [16:25] Taneda     What's written in it must have the     causal consistency of a novel. [16:31] Taneda     For some reason, a narrative-like     logical consistency [16:34] Taneda     is required for it to be     able to overwrite reality. [16:38] Taneda     That must have been how it was created,     by whomever it was that had such an ability. [16:42] Taneda     Though, I suppose, since you can't just write [16:46] Taneda     "One day, humanity was doomed" and expect     it to come true, it's a good rule. [16:50] Rampo     Chief Taneda! [16:52] Taneda     Abandon the mission and run. [16:55] Taneda     They intend to use the Agency     as the catalyst of doom. [17:00] Atsushi     The freedom of a bird? [17:02] Atsushi     That's what you kill for? [17:04] Atsushi     I don't get it at all! [17:06] Nikolai     I'm sure you don't. [17:07] Nikolai     In the end, Fyodor-kun was     the only one who did. [17:11] Nikolai     Okay, next question! [17:14] Nikolai     When did I start lying in what I just said? [17:19] Nikolai     Did I fool you? [17:21] Nikolai     You shouldn't lend your ear to a jester! [17:24] Nikolai     You won't be able to sleep at night. [17:26] Nikolai     Now... [17:27] Nikolai     You can have your leg back. [17:30] Atsushi     My leg's stuck in the ground! [17:32] Atsushi     I can't get it out! [17:33] Nikolai     And thus ends the show. [17:35] Nikolai     I hope you'll visit again. [17:40] Atsushi     Stop! [17:45] Kunikida     Time? [17:47] Tanizaki     Five more minutes. [17:50] Kunikida     Military police... [17:51] Kunikida     If anyone besides the Detective Agency     enters, the hostages die. [17:55] Kunikida     Kenji, stop the military police. [17:57] Kenji     Roger. [17:58] Kunikida     The rest of you, follow me. [18:04] Nikolai     Hey, sir. [18:05] Nikolai     It's almost time to say     bye-bye to your lower half. [18:08] Nikolai     How do you feel? [18:09] Nikolai     Wow! [18:11] Nikolai     In recognition of your strong sense     of justice, I'll let you free! [18:16] Nikolai     Use this to call for help. [18:19] Tonan     You lousy scum... [18:21] Tonan     The justice system will destroy you all! [18:26] Nikolai     I envy you. [18:29] Nikolai     Birds born in a cage don't     realize they're prisoners. [18:33] Nikolai     The prison is here. [18:35] Nikolai     In your skull. [18:37] Nikolai     We can't escape. [18:41] Nikolai     Not from this warm, moist hell. SIGN    "Not from this warm, moist hell," he says. [18:49] Squad Member A     Headquarters, sniper team here. [18:51] Squad Member A     Targets sighted through the window. [18:53] Squad Member A     However, the targets' faces     are obscured by white hoods. [18:57] Captain     The white hoods are the Decay of Angels. [19:00] Captain     Wait for our signal to fire. [19:01] Captain     Rescue squad, your status? [19:03] Rescue Squad Member     An unidentified Gifted flipped     our armored vehicle over! [19:07] Captain     What? [19:09] Captain     Damn it! [19:10] Captain     Tell intel to pull up     the Gifted immediately! [19:16] Captain     Lieutenant, your thoughts? [19:18] Captain     The hostages are all general     manager-level dignitaries. [19:22] Captain     It might be true... [19:25] Captain     that Decay of Angels     are government agents. [19:29] Lieutenant     If that's true, it would be dangerous     to collaborate with other agencies. [19:34] Captain     Demand that they finish     determining the subject [19:36] Captain     of the hostages' secret meeting faster. [19:38] Lieutenant     Sir. [19:40] Captain     Government traitors... [19:43] Captain     Which arm are Decay of Angels from? [19:47] Tanizaki     The hostages are beyond this door. [19:50] Kunikida     First, we throw in this sonic grenade. [19:53] Kunikida     Simultaneously, we use Demon Snow [19:55] Kunikida     to decapitate all of the     perpetrators from behind. [19:57] Kunikida     A frontal special ability fight     would lead to the hostages' deaths. [20:02] Kunikida     There's no other way. [20:06] Nikolai     It's time. [20:07] Nikolai     Press the start button. [20:09] Tonan     Don't! [20:10] Tonan     There's a few more minutes until six! [20:12] Nikolai     No, we're right on time. [20:15] Nikolai     Also... [20:16] Nikolai     Everyone, take off your hoods. SIGN    "Take off your hoods," SIGN    said the young man. [20:23] Squad Member A     Targets are removing their hoods! [20:24] Captain     We'll see the perpetrators' faces! [20:26] Captain     Don't miss them! [20:32] Kunikida     Dive! SIGN    Under the white hoods SIGN    were their faces... [20:50] Kunikida     What the hell is this? [20:53] Kunikida     It's the hostage room. [20:56] Kunikida     Impossible... [20:57] Kunikida     We haven't opened the door.
