**[00:05] Denji**
I can't believe you did that for me.
**[00:08] Denji**
Nobody asked you. Asshole.
**[00:12] Denji**
I'm through with owing
anybody anything, got it?
**[00:17] Denji**
So once you're out of here, we're even!
**[00:30] Kobeni**
It's over...
**[00:49] Eternity**
I knew you were alive, Chainsaw!
**[00:59] Denji**
Yeow!
**[01:03] Denji**
All better!
**[01:06] Eternity**
This is pointless, Chainsaw!
**[01:08] Eternity**
The pain!
**[01:09] Eternity**
It hurts!
**[01:11] Eternity**
You won't find my heart in here!
**[01:14] Eternity**
You can't kill me!
**[01:26] Himeno**
A devil?!
**[01:28] Power**
This bodes ill.
**[01:30] Power**
Denji's losing blood ceaselessly.
**[01:32] Power**
When he's lost too much,
his chainsaws will retract.
**[01:42] Eternity**
You are so much weaker now.
**[01:45] Eternity**
How far you have fallen, Chainsaw?!
**[03:31] Denji**
My chainsaws are in?
**[03:33] Denji**
Need more blood!
**[03:35] Eternity**
You've failed!
**[03:37] Eternity**
Die!
**[03:38] Eternity**
Chainsaw!
**[03:48] Denji**
This blood might seriously taste like shit...
**[03:52] Denji**
But watching you shriek in pain...
**[03:55] Denji**
Makes it sweet like strawberry jam!
**[04:01] Kishibe**
*The hunters that devils fear...*
**[04:08] (Flashback) Kishibe**
are the ones with a couple of screws loose.
**[04:15] (Flashback) Kishibe**
Sahara had his head on straight...
**[04:18] (Flashback) Kishibe**
So he died.
**[04:20] (Flashback) Kishibe**
Same goes for Kinouchi,
and Subaru, and Sasaki. All sane.
**[04:26] (Flashback) Kishibe**
They were reasonable enough
to fear attacks from a devil,
**[04:29] (Flashback) Kishibe**
and that fear made the devils stronger.
**[04:34] (Flashback) Kishibe**
You been working with Aki for a while now.
What do you think about him?
**[04:38] (Flashback) Kishibe**
Is his head on straight?
**[04:40] (Flashback) Himeno**
I wouldn't say that about anyone
who's trying to kill the Gun Devil.
**[04:45] (Flashback) Kishibe**
Didn't you join Public Safety because
you were after the Gun Devil, too?
**[04:50] (Flashback) Kishibe**
You got any screws loose?
**[04:53] (Flashback) Himeno**
No, sir.
**[04:55] (Flashback) Kishibe**
Exactly.
**[04:56] (Flashback) Kishibe**
Most hunters, including you,
are out to put the Gun Devil down.
**[05:02] (Flashback) Kishibe**
They're earnest. Honest. Straightforward.
**[05:05] (Flashback) Kishibe**
And that means the devils know
exactly how to fuck with them.
**[05:10] (Flashback) Kishibe**
But there's no telling what
a crazy person's thinking.
**[05:15] (Flashback) Kishibe**
And even devils are afraid
of what they don't understand.
**[05:21] (Flashback) Himeno**
You're drinking too much again, master.
**[05:23] (Flashback) Kishibe**
See, that's being sensible again.
**[05:26] (Flashback) Kishibe**
Can't be unhinged without
loosening the screws a bit every day.
**[05:34] (Flashback) Kishibe**
And if you're still visiting your
partners' graves every month,
**[05:37] (Flashback) Kishibe**
then yours are still pretty tight.
**[05:40] (Flashback) Kishibe**
I'm heading home.
**[05:41] (Flashback) Kishibe**
Aki's still a punk, so make
sure to work him over.
**[05:45] (Flashback) Himeno**
I'll take it one step at a time.
**[05:48] (Flashback) Kishibe**
Not good enough.
**[05:50] (Flashback) Kishibe**
The kid's serious about
collecting the meat chunks, right?
**[05:54] (Flashback) Kishibe**
He's gonna actually find
the Gun Devil if he does.
**[06:12] (Flashback) Himeno**
No...
**[06:13] (Flashback) Himeno**
No, no, no, no, no, no—
**[06:18] (Flashback) Himeno**
No.
**[06:20] (Flashback) Himeno**
Aki, you wanna join
the private sector with me?
**[06:25] (Flashback) Himeno**
I received a pretty generous offer!
**[06:28] (Flashback) Himeno**
Instead of chasing the Gun,
**[06:31] (Flashback) Himeno**
we could go out for lunch,
see a movie on the way home,
**[06:36] (Flashback) Himeno**
and really enjoy ourselves.
**[06:39] (Flashback) Aki**
If you wanna go out
for drinks, I'll join you.
**[06:41] (Flashback) Aki**
But I have no intention
of ever going private.
**[06:45] (Flashback) Aki**
And I'll take your almond tofu.
**[06:48] (Flashback) Himeno**
Then hand me a cigarette in exchange.
**[06:58] Himeno**
*If Aki fights the Gun Devil, he's gonna die.*
**[07:03] Himeno**
*Not because we're too weak,*
**[07:06] Himeno**
* or because it's the kind of devil that*
* can kill hundreds of people in seconds.*
**[07:11] Himeno**
* It's because Aki's cool,*
* and serious, and kind...*
**[07:17] Himeno**
*and normal, like most people.*
**[07:20] Himeno**
*But...*
**[07:23] Denji**
Take that!
**[07:26] Eternity**
Ow, ow!
**[07:33] Eternity**
It...
**[07:34] Eternity**
It's over.
**[07:41] Himeno**
*But him?*
**[07:43] Denji**
Eureka, dude.
**[07:46] Denji**
I cut you up, and you bleed.
**[07:50] Denji**
I drink that blood and heal!
**[07:53] Denji**
I'm a fucking perpetual motion machine!
**[07:58] Denji**
That Nobel Prize is mine!
**[08:05] Himeno**
*I've never seen anyone crazier than him,*
**[08:09] Himeno**
*so maybe he can kill the Gun Devil!*
**[08:24] Eternity**
Pain...
**[08:28] Eternity**
Ow, ow...
**[08:34] Eternity**
It hurts...
**[08:38] Himeno**
You still alive, Aki?
**[08:44] Aki**
How long...
**[08:46] Aki**
How long has it been?
**[08:49] Himeno**
About three days since
you got stabbed, I think?
**[08:53] Power**
Meowy...
**[08:55] Himeno**
Let's all go out for drinks.
**[08:59] Himeno**
Since it's over... I'm gonna sleep a bit.
**[09:03] Aki**
It's over?
**[09:07] Eternity**
This is my weakness...
**[09:09] Eternity**
It's my heart.
**[09:11] Eternity**
Please kill me.
**[09:12] Eternity**
I'm sorry.
**[09:13] Eternity**
I apologize.
**[09:14] Eternity**
It *hurts*...
**[09:15] Denji**
What, already?!
**[09:17] Denji**
I was still having fun!
It was like being in a pool!
***SIGN*** AUTOMATED

***SIGN*** PLEASE
**[09:33] Denji**
We're out.
**[09:37] Denji**
Got a piece of the Gun Devil's flesh,
the sky is clear...
**[09:41] Denji**
And I'm feeling good,
like I just took a huge shit.
**[09:44] Denji**
It's like I'm floating...
**[09:48] Himeno**
Whoa there.
**[09:51] Himeno**
He's out...
**[09:53] Himeno**
Makes sense, considering he was fighting
the devil the whole time without sleeping.
**[09:58] Himeno**
We'll get Aki and Denji to a hospital.
**[10:02] Himeno**
You two head back
to the office and check in.
**[10:12] Aki**
A welcoming party?
**[10:14] Himeno**
Yep.
**[10:15] Himeno**
Since the full Division 4
is finally assembled,
**[10:18] Himeno**
we ought to get to know each other better,
**[10:20] Himeno**
and deal with some of our outstanding issues.
**[10:23] Aki**
What issues?
**[10:24] Himeno**
Well, the thing is, Kobeni and Arai
are talking about quitting Public Safety.
**[10:29] Himeno**
Not only are they afraid of the devils,
**[10:32] Himeno**
they feel pretty guilty
about trying to kill Denji, too.
**[10:36] Aki**
You tried to kill him, too.
**[10:38] Himeno**
I know, right?!
**[10:39] Himeno**
Kids these days! They're so sensitive.
**[10:43] Himeno**
Would it kill them to be a little bolder?
**[10:46] Himeno**
Over drinks, they'll be able to
apologize to Denji easily,
**[10:50] Himeno**
and we'll be able to
convince them to not quit.
**[10:52] Aki**
You're just in this for drinks.
**[10:56] Aki**
It wasn't much, but I found
a chunk of its flesh.
**[10:59] Aki**
If we're doing this,
it needs to be this week.
**[11:02] Himeno**
Why's that?
**[11:04] Aki**
If we're having a drinking party,
I want to invite Ms. Makima.
**[11:14] Aki**
She's going on a business trip
to Kyoto next week.
**[11:17] Aki**
With so many devils targeting Denji,
she's looking into getting reinforcements.
**[11:21] Aki**
So the party needs to be this week.
**[11:26] Himeno**
Be honest with me.
**[11:28] Himeno**
What do you think Denji *is*?
**[11:32] Himeno**
That devil seemed to know about him,
**[11:35] Himeno**
and I've never seen anything
like what he turned into.
**[11:37] Himeno**
But the biggest mystery is how much
Ms. Makima seems to be interested in him.
**[11:44] Himeno**
She used to travel all the time,
but she's stuck to Tokyo lately,
**[11:48] Himeno**
and that's probably because of Denji.
**[11:51] Himeno**
Does she know his secret?
**[11:58] Himeno**
Wanna get her hammered and ask about it?
**[12:02] Everybody**
Cheers!
**[12:04] Denji**
Man, all this stuff smells awesome!
**[12:07] Denji**
This is enough food for a lifetime!
**[12:08] Himeno**
That's the stuff!
**[12:15] Male Agent**
Oh, here we go.
**[12:16] Denji**
This is nuts!
**[12:17] Lady Agent**
Here's your plate.
**[12:18] Denji**
Where do I even start?
It all smells great.
**[12:20] Aki**
This is good. It's been six months
since I last had anything to drink.
**[12:24] Fushi**
I only drink a bit at home, too.
**[12:26] Power**
Away with you!
**[12:28] Power**
The sashimi shall all be mine!
**[12:29] Denji**
What even is this? Looks tasty!
**[12:33] Kobeni**
Sorry... I got a little lost.
**[12:37] Lady Agent**
Kobe, Kobe! Right over here!
**[12:40] Himeno**
Ms. Makima says she'll be late.
**[12:44] Madoka**
Three parfaits.
**[12:45] Madoka**
And then...
**[12:47] Madoka**
Three shiratama dumpling trays.
**[12:50] Kobeni**
I've never had anything this good before.
**[12:53] Lady Agent**
You send most of your pay home, right?
**[12:56] Lady Agent**
Be sure to eat your fill.
**[12:57] Power**
Hands off, you scoundrel!
**[12:58] Power**
The fried chicken is all mine!
**[13:01] Aki**
You didn't bring your Fiend, Fushi?
**[13:04] Fushi**
They're a little too scary
for a place like this.
**[13:07] Fushi**
I envy how reasonable yours is, Hayakawa.
**[13:11] Male Agent**
Hey!
**[13:12] Male Agent**
You're young, so order
whatever you want! And eat up!
**[13:15] Denji**
Damn it! I can't read most of these kanji...

***SIGN*** Kisu Tempura
**[13:23] Denji**
So... about that kiss...
**[13:28] Himeno**
I'm too bashful to do it right now.
**[13:30] Himeno**
Let me drink a bit more first.
**[13:35] Himeno**
I'll make it a juicy one, too.
**[13:37] Himeno**
So will you forgive us
for trying to kill you?
**[13:41] Denji**
Dude, all is forgiven! Super forgiven!
**[13:45] Male Agent**
This is a welcoming party for the rookies,
so stand up and introduce yourselves!
**[13:49] Male Agent**
Your name, age, and the devil
you're contracted with!
**[13:52] Aki**
Don't reveal your devil contract in public.
**[13:55] Aki**
You shouldn't share that
with anyone you don't trust.
**[13:59] Male Agent**
Man, you never loosen up, do you?
**[14:01] Himeno**
Aw, it's fine! It's probably fine.
**[14:05] Lady Agent**
I wanna know hobbies, too.
**[14:07] Lady Agent**
They tell you a lot about a person.
**[14:09] Denji**
I'm Denji. I'm 16, if I remember right.
**[14:13] Denji**
My hobbies are eating and sleeping!
**[14:17] Lady Agent**
Yikes, that is *young*.
**[14:19] Himeno**
You didn't drink, did you?!
**[14:21] Denji**
Just tea.
**[14:23] Arai**
I'm Hirokazu Arai! I'm 22 years old!
**[14:26] Arai**
I've got a contract with the Fox Devil!
**[14:27] Arai**
My hobby is writing haiku!
**[14:30] Denji**
That's the same devil as Hayakaptain.
**[14:32] Aki**
The Fox Devil is friendly toward humans.
**[14:35] Aki**
So many hunters make contracts
with the Fox Devil.
**[14:38] Himeno**
But only hotties get to call
on the Fox Devil's head!
**[14:41] Himeno**
As devils go, the Fox is down bad.
**[14:45] Kobeni**
I'm Kobeni Higashiyama.
**[14:47] Kobeni**
I'm 20...
**[14:48] Kobeni**
I've got a devil contract...
but it's a secret.
**[14:51] Kobeni**
My hobby is eating tasty things.
**[14:55] Lady Agent**
Isn't her outfit cute?
**[14:56] Madoka**
Yeah.
**[14:57] Kobeni**
It's a hand-me-down from my sister.
**[14:59] Lady Agent**
Kobeni has eight sisters. Isn't that crazy?
**[15:00] Himeno**
Hey, where's your rookie, Fushi?
**[15:03] Fuku**
I'm sad to report that they
were killed yesterday.
**[15:08] Himeno**
Rest in peace!
**[15:10] Himeno**
They will be... mist... pissed... missed?
**[15:14] Aki**
Already wasted, huh?
**[15:17] Arai**
Do people really die that often?
**[15:20] Male Agent**
Public Safety handles the devils
too tough for the private sector.
**[15:24] Lady Agent**
Yeah, we're always dropping like flies.
**[15:26] Lady Agent**
No one who joined up at the
same time as me is still alive.
**[15:28] Himeno**
Denji's not gonna die,
cuz he wants a smooch!
**[15:35] Male Agent**
Himeno gets really *friendly*
when she's drunk.
**[15:38] Male Agent**
I'm pretty sure she's kissed everyone here,
apart from the rookies.
**[15:42] Male Agent**
There's no escaping her.
**[15:47] Denji**
*That's a guaranteed kiss!*
**[15:51] Denji**
Today's the day... of my first kiss.
**[15:55] Makima**
What kiss?
**[15:57] Himeno**
Ms. Makima!
**[15:59] Makima**
Excuse me, I'd like a draft beer.
**[16:02] Aki**
Have a seat, Ms. Makima.
**[16:07] Lady Agent**
I've never seen her in person before.
**[16:12] Makima**
So, are you kissing someone, Denji?
**[16:14] Denji**
No, ma'am!
**[16:15] Himeno**
Aw, are we not gonna kiss, Denji?!
**[16:19] Denji**
We are!
**[16:23] Makima**
Excuse me. Another beer.
**[16:28] Makima**
So, what's this about kisses?
**[16:30] Denji**
* I don't want Ms. Makima*
* to see me kiss Himeno.*
**[16:34] Himeno**
No smoochies?
**[16:36] Denji**
* But I want a kiss with tongue*
* just as bad!*
**[16:40] Denji**
*I've gotta try and change the subject!*
**[16:43] Denji**
Ms. Makima! Y'know, I got one
of them Gun Devil thingies!
**[16:47] Makima**
Yes, I heard. That's very impressive, Denji.
**[16:51] Aki**
We've never seen devils appearing with
Gun Devil flesh this frequently before.
**[16:56] Aki**
Given how the most recent one
was targeting Denji,
**[16:59] Aki**
something must be going on.
**[17:02] Aki**
Do you know what Denji's deal is, ma'am?
**[17:08] Power**
Relinquish that!
**[17:11] Power**
That, too, is mine!
**[17:16] Makima**
I'll tell you if you can outdrink me.
**[17:21] Aki**
Two more beers, please.
**[17:24] Himeno**
I want in on that! Make it three!
**[17:28] Power**
Horse sashimi! Fried chicken!
And more horse sashimi!
**[17:30] Denji**
Fried chicken!
**[17:37] Power**
That's mine, too.
**[17:38] Makima**
Another beer, if you would.
**[17:41] Lady Agent**
You're pretty impressive, Power.
**[17:43] Lady Agent**
There aren't a lot of Fiends
who can control their urge to kill.
**[17:47] Power**
A feat of my advanced IQ!
**[17:50] Lady Agent**
Is IQ part of it? How high is yours, then?
**[17:55] Power**
Um... 100?
**[17:56] Lady Agent**
Is that high?
**[17:58] Lady Agent**
I think my score was around 100, too.
**[18:01] Power**
Then it was 120.
**[18:03] Lady Agent**
If I remember right, Fushi's is high.
**[18:05] Fumi**
Specifically, 134.
**[18:07] Lady Agent**
Wow, must be proud enough
to actually remember it.
**[18:11] Power**
If I recall, mine was 500?
**[18:13] Power**
Perhaps 1000?
**[18:19] Makima**
Oh my.
**[18:25] Denji**
*She's watching!*
**[18:26] Denji**
*Ms. Makima's watching.*
**[18:28] Denji**
*But what is this?*
**[18:29] Power**
The kiss is afoot!
**[18:29] Denji**
*Is that a tongue I feel?*
**[18:31] Denji**
*Feels good... soft! Really soft!*
**[18:34] Denji**
*What the hell?! It's her tongue...*
**[18:36] Denji**
*But it's melting in my mouth?!*
**[18:38] Denji**
*That's... not... a tongue!*
**[18:40] Denji**
*It's puke!*
**[18:44] Male Agent**
Well, that's traumatic.
**[18:46] Makima**
Uh-oh...
**[18:48] Makima**
Excuse me, can we get
something to wipe this up?
**[18:50] Power**
Oh, this isn't good! Not good at all!
**[18:55] Power**
Denji will swallow anything
remotely nutritious!
**[19:04] (Flashback) Denji**
Pochita!
**[19:06] (Flashback) Denji**
I found something edible!
**[19:18] (Flashback) Denji**
Check it out, Pochita!
**[19:19] (Flashback) Denji**
Those rats are chowing on some drunk's puke!
**[19:22] (Flashback) Denji**
Eating puke! What a joke!
**[19:25] (Flashback) Denji**
What kinda mammals are they?!
**[19:31] Arai**
Unbelievable... Himeno has
absolutely no restraint.
**[19:40] Arai**
My method for throwing up
works pretty well, right?
**[19:43] Arai**
I used to look after my mom when
she came home drunk from work.
**[19:47] Arai**
Not that it makes me as good
a Devil Hunter as you.
**[19:51] Arai**
I'm pretty jealous.
**[19:54] Denji**
Jealous?!
**[19:56] Denji**
Dude... My first kiss tasted like barf!
**[20:00] Denji**
And you're jealous?!
**[20:12] Makima**
I'll see Hayakawa and his household home.
**[20:13] Fushi**
You wanna drop by somewhere else?
**[20:15] Lady Agent**
I drank a lot...
**[20:15] Makima**
Arai, look after Himeno.
**[20:17] Fushi**
Ms. Makima paid the tab tonight,
everyone, so show your gratitude.
**[20:21] Kobeni**
Nothing tastes better than
drinks someone else paid for.
**[20:25] Lady Agent**
Yep.
**[20:28] Makima**
Huh? Where's Denji?
**[20:30] Fuku**
I saw Himeno pick him up
and walk off somewhere.
**[20:39] Denji**
*It's dark... So dark...*
**[20:42] Denji**
*Where the hell am I?*
**[20:44] Denji**
*Water... Water... Water...*
**[20:49] Denji**
* Come to think of it, the puke*
* girl gave me a barf kiss.*
**[20:54] Denji**
*Damn it! Water, water...*
**[21:16] Himeno**
Huh... It's Den-Den-Denji?
**[21:20] Himeno**
What are you doing in my place?
**[21:25] Himeno**
Did I bring you here?
**[21:27] Himeno**
Huh?
**[21:30] Denji**
I'm so dizzy... What the hell?
