    Lately, lots of people have been illegally downloading TV shows over the internet.
[00:05] ---
    Without the right holders' permission,
[00:08] ---
    distribution, via the internet or bootlegs, is illegal!
[00:13] ---
    Please remember that!
[00:55] ---
    All warning depth Es and Fs...
[00:58] ---
    Anyone out there?
[01:00] ---
    Come out now, and this cute plug girl will treat you really well.
[01:07] ---
    Warning depth C!
[01:09] ---
    Lock!
[01:25] ---
    OK, time to get to work!
SIGN    Win!
SIGN    Win!
SIGN    Win!
SIGN    Win!
[02:17] ---
    Now!
[02:18] ---
    Fight! One Shot Charge!
[02:29] ---
    I didn't expect my luck to run out here of all places.
[02:43] ---
    Well, guess I'll drink this and keep at it.
[02:59] ---
    This world is not the Earth you know.
[03:01] ---
    It's a so-called "parallel world," the "Life Core." And this corporation,
[03:05] ---
    Neodymium Inc., has rapidly expanded here.
[03:10] ---
    Neodymium Inc. discovered these "parallels," parallel worlds,
[03:13] ---
    developed transport among them,
[03:15] ---
    and before we knew it, began interfering with them as a part of our business.
[03:20] ---
    This business consists of...
[03:22] ---
    Plug!
[03:23] ---
    Y-Yes!
[03:25] ---
    Pay attention!
[03:27] ---
    State what constitutes their business.
[03:29] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[03:30] ---
    Their business consists of "charging" the humans in those parallel worlds
[03:35] ---
    who have a very low life depth, thus helping to revitalize their souls!
[03:39] ---
    If you know what you're supposed to do,
[03:41] ---
    then do your damn job!
[03:46] ---
    Damage to your suit!
[03:47] ---
    Fees for wasted electricity!
[03:49] ---
    Waste and destruction of your equipment!
[03:51] ---
    It all comes out of your salary.
[03:54] ---
    No, Chief Pulse!
[03:57] ---
    This month, I bought all this stuff,
[03:59] ---
    and my loans and the rest are really hurting me!
[04:03] ---
    Then go make some money.
[04:05] ---
    I'm on a fixed salary...
[04:10] ---
    Then do a good job and hope for a raise!
[04:13] ---
    You're working overtime!
[04:14] ---
    Go! Go now!
[04:15] ---
    Right now!
[04:17] ---
    R-Right!
[04:22] ---
    But I'm trying my hardest...
SIGN    Plug In!
[04:39] ---
    What was that?
[04:41] ---
    What's wrong?
[04:42] ---
    I think I just hit something.
[04:45] ---
    What? I don't see anything.
[04:48] ---
    That's weird...
[04:51] ---
    Stealth function on!
[04:53] ---
    Humans can't see us, but they can touch us.
[04:57] ---
    Just in case, omni-band isolation stealth on.
[05:04] ---
    OK, then! Guess it's time for work!
[05:23] ---
    It's always at times like this that it's hardest to find a target.
[05:28] ---
    That's a good thing for the people of the parallels, but...
[05:33] ---
    It's a serious problem for my wallet!
[05:37] ---
    I need to find a target right away!
[05:41] ---
    Thank you.
[05:43] ---
    Thank you.
[05:49] ---
    Sento-kun, help them in the back, would you?
[05:52] ---
    But I'm supposed to be up front today.
[06:15] ---
    Yeah. Didn't think I'd find any targets at a family restaurant...
[06:27] ---
    Where are the targets?
[06:33] ---
    Game's over.
[06:38] ---
    What was that for?
[06:40] ---
    That's my line!
[06:42] ---
    What the hell are you?
[06:43] ---
    Who the hell are you?
[06:44] ---
    Ah!
[06:46] ---
    Um... Maybe you can see me?
[06:49] ---
    Why do you think I hit you?
[06:51] ---
    Who are you, anyway?
[06:53] ---
    Some kind of new family restaurant thief?
[06:55] ---
    What are you doing, Brother?
[06:58] ---
    Hakone! Iono?
[07:00] ---
    What's wrong?
[07:01] ---
    Why are you holding a bat?
[07:04] ---
    Swinging a bat around to take your mind off how much your job sucks?
[07:06] ---
    Must be a pretty slow day...
[07:08] ---
    Swinging a-
[07:09] ---
    Can't you see her?
[07:13] ---
    Her?
[07:14] ---
    What is he talking about?
[07:16] ---
    My stealth is working normally.
[07:19] ---
    So how can he see me?
[07:24] ---
    What are you looking at, girl?
[07:26] ---
    Huh?
[07:26] ---
    Well?
[07:28] ---
    Has Sen-nii been tired lately?
[07:30] ---
    Don't look at me like that, damn it.
[07:31] ---
    Brother, your work's almost done right?
[07:35] ---
    Y-Yeah, sorry.
[07:37] ---
    I ended up having to take a night shift today.
[07:40] ---
    I see.
[07:41] ---
    Then you can't go back with us.
[07:45] ---
    I thought this was my chance, too...
[07:48] ---
    Chance?
[07:50] ---
    No, nothing! Nothing!
[07:55] ---
    Then I'll make you dinner, OK?
[07:58] ---
    What would you like, Brother?
[08:02] ---
    It's all right. You don't have to do that, Hakone.
[08:10] ---
    Once work's over, I'll come straight home.
[08:13] ---
    You don't need to worry about a thing.
[08:15] ---
    But...
[08:16] ---
    Warning depth C.
[08:18] ---
    She needs charging!
[08:21] ---
    Wow, what a kind brother!
[08:25] ---
    I can't believe I found one in a place like this.
[08:33] ---
    I'll charge you right up, OK?
[08:37] ---
    Fight!
[08:38] ---
    One Charge!
[08:45] ---
    What are you doing to Hakone?
[08:47] ---
    Why did you swing your bat?
[08:58] ---
    That's my job.
[09:01] ---
    My name is Plug.
[09:03] ---
    So, let me get this straight.
[09:04] ---
    Hakone's will to live was lacking, so you tried to stab her with that huge plug?
[09:11] ---
    That's right!
[09:12] ---
    We charge people up with energy.
[09:14] ---
    People call us charger girls.
[09:19] ---
    Is that all you've got to say?
[09:21] ---
    Wh-Why?
[09:23] ---
    Shut up!
[09:24] ---
    I'm not letting you do something shady, like "charging" her up.
[09:27] ---
    For one thing, Hakone's doing just fine, thank you very much!
[09:30] ---
    But my life-checker classified her warning depth as C!
[09:36] ---
    Warning depth?
[09:37] ---
    Yes. She's still just a class C, but it might get worse if I don't help her.
[09:46] ---
    When humans' warning depths increase and life activity values drop,
[09:50] ---
    they cease to do anything, and their minds end up breaking.
[09:55] ---
    If that happens, she could become a vegetable or maybe even kill herself!
[10:01] ---
    Kill herself?
[10:04] ---
    That's impossible.
[10:05] ---
    Well, her mom died a few years ago, and her dad may be at work all the time...
[10:12] ---
    But that's why I've done my best to make sure she suffers as little as possible.
[10:17] ---
    That's right... You're suffering, aren't you?
[10:24] ---
    Well, Magical Girl Sweetie Millie?
[10:27] ---
    You still think you can spread love to the whole world?
[10:33] ---
    I won't be beaten!
[10:39] ---
    This is the ultra-rare anime Sweetie Millie, which got canceled after
[10:42] ---
    the public complained, and the sponsors and TV station got into a big fight!
[10:49] ---
    To see an anime with such love, overflowing with hopes and dreams...
[10:53] ---
    I must be really lucky!
[10:54] ---
    No. You're unlucky.
[11:03] ---
    Well, Millie?
[11:05] ---
    Do you now see that nobody needs love?
[11:10] ---
    Don't touch mah bitch!
[11:15] ---
    Don't you dare try that "charging" crap on her!
[11:21] ---
    Out of the way, whatever the hell you are.
[11:29] ---
    Sorry, Hakone!
[11:32] ---
    I was busy changing.
[11:35] ---
    I'll make dinner right away.
[11:38] ---
    Brother...
[11:39] ---
    You don't have to do anything.
[11:42] ---
    Just wait a bit more.
[11:55] ---
    Hakone-chan.
[12:01] ---
    You're running too fast!
[12:03] ---
    Hurry up, dumbass.
[12:05] ---
    Sento-kun told me not to charge her.
[12:08] ---
    I'm not letting you do something shady, like "charging" her up.
[12:12] ---
    For one thing, Hakone's doing just fine, thank you very much!
[12:16] ---
    Man, how rude!
[12:18] ---
    "Something shady, like charging"...
[12:20] ---
    We're helping people, you know!
[12:23] ---
    Good morning, Hakone!
[12:25] ---
    Good morning...
[12:26] ---
    Good morning.
[12:27] ---
    Good morning.
[12:29] ---
    But...
[12:30] ---
    Yeah, I saw it!
[12:31] ---
    It does bug me...
[12:35] ---
    What's bothering her so much?
[12:39] ---
    OK! This is Hakone-chan's school!
[12:44] ---
    And then she was like...
[12:46] ---
    Right, try reading from line 2, page 23.
[13:08] ---
    OK, see you tomorrow, Hakone.
[13:10] ---
    Yeah, bye bye.
[13:16] ---
    I don't understand the reason at all.
[13:40] ---
    I'm back.
SIGN    I'll be working late again today. Be sure you eat dinner. -Sento
[13:50] ---
    Sento-kun does all the chores himself!
[13:55] ---
    There's even miso soup.
[13:57] ---
    He's like some kind of super-housewife.
[14:04] ---
    Hakone-chan?
[14:18] ---
    Mom...
[14:23] ---
    Hakone.
[14:29] ---
    Don't worry about a thing.
[14:31] ---
    Brother...
[14:32] ---
    Leave it to me.
[14:34] ---
    You don't have to worry.
[14:37] ---
    Brother!
[14:44] ---
    Hakone.
[14:46] ---
    Mom... Even if you're not here, even if dad works all the time,
[14:53] ---
    I'm not lonely at all.
[14:56] ---
    But...
[14:58] ---
    Brother works too hard for my sake.
[15:04] ---
    If he gets sick or ends up like you because of that... I...
[15:11] ---
    I'd...
[15:13] ---
    I'd die.
[15:16] ---
    Hakone-chan, you're that worried about him?
[15:24] ---
    So, it's his fault after all!
[15:35] ---
    Yes. She's still just a class C, but it might get worse if I don't help her.
[15:42] ---
    Hakone?
[15:43] ---
    Um...
[15:54] ---
    Pardon me!
[15:58] ---
    I'm heading home.
[15:59] ---
    Good night.
[16:06] ---
    Sento-kun, where I work, this is against the rules,
[16:09] ---
    but I wanted to say something...
[16:13] ---
    Just one thing.
[16:22] ---
    Hakone's worried about that?
[16:25] ---
    I think she's suffered a lot.
[16:29] ---
    Screw you.
[16:34] ---
    I'm not making her suffer.
[16:37] ---
    I'm protecting her, that's all.
[16:39] ---
    She doesn't need to worry about me. She just needs to grow up like a normal girl.
[16:44] ---
    No! Because you try to do everything yourself,
[16:47] ---
    she's convinced herself she can't do anything.
[16:51] ---
    She's-
[16:52] ---
    Hold on a second.
[16:53] ---
    You said you heard all this in the bathroom, right?
[16:56] ---
    Yeah.
[16:57] ---
    Which means you watched her in the bath?!
[17:01] ---
    Um, I think that's really a minor issue here!
[17:06] ---
    Batter up!
[17:15] ---
    I'm back.
[17:18] ---
    Hakone?
[17:21] ---
    Is she in her room?
[17:23] ---
    Hey, Hakone!
SIGN    Brother,
    I'm going to see Mom.
[17:27] ---
    "I'm going to see Mom"?
[17:29] ---
    What?
[17:31] ---
    It says, "I'm going to..."
[17:34] ---
    No way!
[17:35] ---
    Suicide?
[17:46] ---
    Hakone is here?
[17:48] ---
    Yes.
[17:54] ---
    Good, there's a substation nearby.
[17:57] ---
    Substation?
[17:58] ---
    I need a huge amount of voltage to charge someone.
[18:03] ---
    Normally, I can use the transformers on telephone poles, but...
[18:09] ---
    OK!
[18:11] ---
    Now I can use a lot of power if I need to.
[18:14] ---
    I'm going to change into my suit.
[18:17] ---
    Suit?
[18:25] ---
    What kind of outfit is that?
[18:27] ---
    Um, work clothes, I suppose.
[18:31] ---
    I can see certain people being really into that.
[18:34] ---
    Are there really people who are into insulators?
[18:37] ---
    In an emergency, charger girls can transform into an insulated suit in 0.01 seconds!
SIGN    Pre-Transformation
SIGN    Pre-Transformation - Transforming (0.01 seconds) - Post-Transformation
[18:43] ---
    Let's watch this process in detail.
[18:47] ---
    Or let's not, since we're out of time. Maybe later, guys!
[18:54] ---
    Hakone!
[18:58] ---
    I have to do what I can!
[19:03] ---
    Hakone!
[19:06] ---
    Plug set complete!
[19:08] ---
    Oh, right!
[19:10] ---
    I need to ground myself, just in case.
[19:15] ---
    I can't let that "just in case" happen.
[19:18] ---
    I'm going to save Sento-kun's precious Hakone-chan!
[19:23] ---
    Mom...
[19:26] ---
    Hakone!
[19:28] ---
    Brother?
[19:43] ---
    Brother!
[19:44] ---
    Are you OK?
[19:46] ---
    I'll lift you up now.
[19:48] ---
    Brother.
[19:53] ---
    Damn it... This is bad.
[19:56] ---
    Brother, let me go.
[19:58] ---
    You'll fall, too!
[20:00] ---
    I won't let you go.
[20:01] ---
    You're my little sister!
[20:04] ---
    Brother.
[20:07] ---
    Charge.
[20:20] ---
    Here I go, Brother.
[20:27] ---
    What are you doing?
[20:28] ---
    Stop! Stop it!
[20:30] ---
    Hakone!
[20:33] ---
    This is dangerous!
[20:47] ---
    Are you OK, Hakone?
[20:50] ---
    Yeah.
[20:57] ---
    Brother.
[20:58] ---
    Yes?
[20:59] ---
    I'm really happy that you always try to do everything for me,
[21:04] ---
    and I'm so thankful.
[21:05] ---
    Of course I do.
[21:07] ---
    You're my little sister-
[21:08] ---
    But I want you to stop.
[21:12] ---
    I want to help you, too!
[21:14] ---
    I want to be useful to you!
[21:16] ---
    Hakone...
[21:17] ---
    But...
[21:19] ---
    Hakone?
[21:20] ---
    I love you, Brother.
[21:22] ---
    So, chores and everything...
    I want to do all of those with you!
[21:28] ---
    Hakone?
[21:32] ---
    Jeez... I'm an idiot, aren't I?
[21:36] ---
    A stupid brother.
[21:38] ---
    Brother...
[21:40] ---
    I guess we'll take turns making dinner from now on.
[21:45] ---
    OK!
[21:51] ---
    Good for you, Hakone-chan.
[22:00] ---
    See you later!
[22:02] ---
    Bye, Brother!
[22:05] ---
    OK! You're making dinner tonight, OK?
[22:09] ---
    Right!
[22:10] ---
    Hakone-chan, did something happen?
[22:13] ---
    Nothing.
[22:14] ---
    That's really suspicious.
[22:16] ---
    Come on! Tell me!
[22:19] ---
    Wait! Tell me!
[22:21] ---
    I guess it's thanks to her.
[22:24] ---
    Thanks, Plug.
[22:29] ---
    The chief didn't have to yell so much just 'cause my report was late...
[22:36] ---
    I wonder if Sento-kun and his sister are doing all right.
[22:46] ---
    Hello!
[22:50] ---
    Why, you-
[24:25] ---
    Charger Girl, Episode 2: Timing!
[24:28] ---
    Her rival appears!
[24:32] ---
    Who's my rival again?
[24:34] ---
    See you next time!!
