[00:01] ---
What's wrong, Hakone-chan?
[00:04] ---
Lately, lots of people have been illegally downloading TV shows over the internet.
[00:10] ---
Without the right holders' permission,
[00:12] ---
distribution, via the internet or bootlegs, is illegal!
[00:20] ---
Please remember that...
[00:27] ---
Charger girls get up bright and early!
[00:30] ---
Even if they are citizens of a highly technologically advanced parallel world,
[00:35] ---
they are still industrious members of society, busy at work every day.
[00:46] ---
Get up, please!
[01:29] ---
Who turned off my alarm clock?!
[01:32] ---
Today, the charger girls go forth again!
[03:06] ---
Bye!
[03:08] ---
Take care!
[03:09] ---
OK!
[03:14] ---
And then he got really mad.
[03:18] ---
He looked like a scary old lady.
[03:20] ---
Scary old lady brother!
[03:22] ---
Hakone-chan's much happier.
[03:24] ---
What's up, Iono-chan?
[03:26] ---
You're smiling.
[03:28] ---
Yeah?
[03:29] ---
Am I?
[03:30] ---
Were you thinking about a certain someone?
[03:34] ---
Were you thinking about them and smiling?
[03:45] ---
OK! I'll do my best, too!
[03:51] ---
Timing!
[04:01] ---
It's digging into me!
[04:03] ---
It's so tight!
[04:05] ---
Millie-chan!
[04:08] ---
B-Bitch-kun...
[04:11] ---
Stop screwing around, you lazy insect!
[04:14] ---
Filthy pond-leech whore!
[04:16] ---
Stop enjoying it.
[04:17] ---
You call yourself a magical soldier of love?
[04:21] ---
I can't go on...
[04:26] ---
It feels so good!
[04:29] ---
Time for work.
[04:37] ---
Oh, no.
[04:38] ---
Found you!
[04:40] ---
Um, where's a power source-
[04:43] ---
Move! You're in the way!
[04:46] ---
Charge.
[04:49] ---
Arresta!
[04:50] ---
What are you doing here?
[04:53] ---
This isn't your area!
[04:54] ---
You don't know?
[04:56] ---
I don't!
[04:58] ---
A certain someone hasn't even come close to making their quota,
[05:01] ---
so the chief sent me.
[05:04] ---
She told me to keep the sections at least partially balanced.
[05:07] ---
But even so, I think coming in and just charging someone...
[05:11] ---
You know what this is, right?
[05:13] ---
A report on a certain someone's activities this month.
[05:15] ---
Six failed charges.
[05:17] ---
Stemming from them, two instances of property damage.
[05:19] ---
You're already on your third stern warning this month.
[05:23] ---
Anything to say?
[05:26] ---
Whatever. I came to help, so at least go someplace where you won't bother me.
[05:34] ---
What was that?
[05:35] ---
Man, she pisses me off!
[05:37] ---
Who does she think she is,
[05:38] ---
acting like my boss 'cause I had some trouble this month?!
[05:40] ---
Stupid!
[05:41] ---
Jerk!
[05:42] ---
Four-eyed ice queen!
[05:52] ---
I should get to work.
[05:59] ---
Maybe I should get this pair of tickets...
[06:01] ---
But maybe it'd be easier to invite him if I brought Hakone-chan along.
[06:12] ---
Warning depth C.
[06:14] ---
Here I go!
[06:15] ---
Charge.
[06:17] ---
I can keep going and going!
[06:23] ---
OK, this tim-
[06:25] ---
Charge.
[06:27] ---
I'm on top of the world!
[06:32] ---
Charge.
[06:36] ---
Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge.
[06:39] ---
Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge.
[07:07] ---
Go me!
[07:09] ---
What are you doing? You don't punch girls in the face!
[07:13] ---
Beats being hit with a bat, right?
[07:15] ---
What does that mean?
[07:17] ---
Just don't get in the way of my job.
[07:19] ---
In the way?
[07:20] ---
That's my line!
[07:22] ---
You keep stealing all the charge targets I find!
[07:25] ---
Stealing?
[07:26] ---
I don't know about that.
[07:28] ---
You're just too slow.
[07:29] ---
Am I wrong?
[07:30] ---
W-Well...
[07:32] ---
"The early bird gets the charge."
[07:34] ---
That's what the chief always says, right?
[07:36] ---
Jeez... My head hurts just thinking about this.
[07:39] ---
I can't believe I'm working with such a stupid girl.
[07:43] ---
Do you know what the rest of the company calls you?
[07:46] ---
Miss Salary Cut.
[07:47] ---
The Demon of Written Apologies.
[07:49] ---
The Queen of "Take It Out of Her Salary."
[07:52] ---
The others give me a hard enough time simply for being in your department.
[07:56] ---
You're not cut out for this line of work.
[08:05] ---
That target...
[08:09] ---
I charged him a year ago.
[08:12] ---
Again?
[08:14] ---
There are a lot of repeaters these days.
[08:18] ---
Oh, well.
[08:20] ---
Ah, too bad. Work's over.
[08:24] ---
You're leaving?
[08:24] ---
Of course I am.
[08:26] ---
I don't need to work overtime, and I've got things to do.
[08:29] ---
See you around.
[08:43] ---
Oh, Bitch-kun!
[08:47] ---
What the hell was that today?
[08:50] ---
You're a failure as a Magical Girl!
[08:53] ---
I'm sorry!
[08:59] ---
Stealth...
[09:08] ---
Sento-kun.
[09:09] ---
When you're done, clean out the back, OK?
[09:12] ---
Yes, Chief.
[09:25] ---
I-Is something wrong?
[09:27] ---
Going to clean!
[09:33] ---
That was awful...
[09:34] ---
You were the one who suddenly came out of the damned wall.
[09:37] ---
I didn't know you worked at a place like this!
[09:40] ---
So, what are you doing here?
[09:43] ---
Are you going to charge one of the customers or something?
[09:46] ---
No, that's not it.
[09:49] ---
It's not?
[09:50] ---
Yeah...
[09:53] ---
Did something happen?
[09:57] ---
Well, you seem more down than usual, so I was wondering if you screwed up.
[10:01] ---
Like if you got bitched out by a co-worker 'cause you slowed them down.
[10:08] ---
I'm right?
[10:12] ---
Um, actually...
[10:20] ---
I was thinking maybe I'm really not cut out for this job.
[10:24] ---
Hell if I know.
[10:28] ---
But you know...
[10:29] ---
This is just what I think. I'm not really going to say anything deep here.
[10:35] ---
So don't expect too much.
[10:36] ---
I know that.
[10:38] ---
Like, your job...
[10:40] sign
My Image of Charging!
This Explanation is Fictional
[10:42] ---
You might, for instance, have a victim and an abuser.
[10:45] ---
Even if you charged the victim and she got better,
[10:47] ---
Feelin' fine!
[10:48] ---
Bring me beer!
[10:48] ---
the abuser doesn't notice at all.
[10:51] ---
And since the fundamental problem hasn't been resolved,
[10:54] ---
it's possible that the same thing will happen over and over again.
[10:58] ---
That's what causes those "repeaters" you were talking about, right?
[11:03] ---
So basically, you're just kicking the issue down the road a bit.
[11:06] ---
It's like changing the batteries of a toy that won't move.
[11:09] ---
Flip.
[11:10] ---
Insert.
[11:11] ---
OK, done.
[11:12] ---
Well, regardless, it's good for us, and to you guys, it's a job.
[11:18] ---
So I guess it's fine.
[11:20] ---
What the hell was that?
[11:21] ---
Are you trying to pick a fight with me, Sento-kun?
[11:23] ---
What's your problem?
[11:24] ---
It's just what I think.
[11:26] ---
That's not it!
[11:27] ---
That's not what we do at all!
[11:30] ---
You don't know anything!
[11:32] ---
I'm trying my hardest. I may not look it, but I really am!
[11:32] ---
H-Hey, stop it!
[11:36] ---
Why, you...
[11:42] ---
I'm just giving him the ticket.
[11:44] ---
It's nothing special.
[11:47] ---
Nothing special at all.
[11:48] ---
Come on!
[11:57] ---
Sen-nii-
[11:59] ---
Screw you!
[12:01] ---
I'm not taking that shit from a girl who floats through walls!
[12:03] ---
Shut up!
[12:05] ---
I'll kill you! I'll kill you!
[12:07] ---
I'll seriously beat the living shit out of you!
[12:10] ---
Never mind!
[12:11] ---
I hate you!
[12:13] ---
You stupid, female wage-slave!
[12:26] ---
Just a little...
[12:33] ---
That's great!
[12:38] ---
I didn't know he was such a jerk.
[12:41] ---
Who does he think saved Hakone-chan?
[12:46] ---
"Who"?
[12:49] ---
I didn't look into what was bothering Hakone-chan until after he got mad.
[12:57] ---
And then I worked with him.
[13:00] ---
But if I'd been alone...
[13:05] ---
Could I have saved her?
[13:13] ---
All right!
[13:47] ---
Did you know that Mr. Tanser, the famous physicist BLEEP-BLEEP-BEEP...?
[13:53] ---
Here, the key is what form the verb "stopped," or Japanese "yameta," takes.
[13:57] ---
There he is.
[13:59] ---
This "did you know" is in past tense, of course,
[14:02] ---
so here, "stopped it" indicates that Mr. Tanser...
[14:21] ---
I'm back.
[14:25] ---
I'm sorry it's nothing fancy, Akihiro.
[14:27] ---
But I think cutlet was the right choice here.
[14:30] ---
Do your best on your admissions test!
[14:32] ---
Rush and you'll make mistakes you shouldn't.
[14:34] ---
Come on. If I can do it, there's no reason you can't.
[14:43] ---
I never did get a B.
[14:47] ---
If I fail this time, I'll have spent four years trying to get into college.
[14:50] ---
I wish they'd told me to get a job before.
[14:54] ---
If they had, I never would've suffered this much.
[14:59] ---
They don't even know what I want.
[15:01] ---
"Do your best." Yeah, right!
[15:03] ---
Damn it.
[15:04] ---
So, this is what's going on.
[15:06] ---
If I'd just charged him there,
[15:09] ---
he might have just gotten into a big fight with the people supporting him.
[15:14] ---
He was right. It's not like changing the batteries in a toy.
[15:20] ---
Now then, what should I do in this situation?
[15:30] ---
Do your best.
[15:47] ---
If he's looking at the problem sheet, he should be thinking about his future.
[15:52] ---
If I'm going to charge him, that's the time.
[15:55] ---
Just keep going a little more, and I'll...
[16:03] ---
Hey, wait. Where are you going?
[16:06] ---
Wait!
[16:08] ---
He's just... He's giving up?
[16:15] ---
I'm not gonna pass anyway.
[16:18] ---
It's only a waste of time.
[16:24] ---
I never thought this would happen.
[16:27] ---
And he's smoking, even though he's a student-
[16:29] ---
If he's failed the yearly exams three times, he's 21. It's fine.
[16:38] ---
Don't scare me.
[16:40] ---
That wasn't my intent. But seeing you freak out does make me happy.
[16:45] ---
What do you want?
[16:46] ---
What do I want?
[16:47] ---
The university entrance exams are today and tomorrow.
[16:49] ---
Lots of students without much energy take the exam.
[16:53] ---
It was amazing. The warning buzzer was going off everywhere.
[16:58] ---
Targets as far as the eye could see!
[17:00] ---
I think I must easily have cleared 100.
[17:03] ---
So, he's the last one.
[17:08] ---
No!
[17:10] ---
If you charge him now, the same thing will just repeat all over again.
[17:14] ---
He needs better timing for it!
[17:16] ---
What do you mean, "timing"?
[17:17] ---
What if we leave him here, and it ends up being too late?
[17:21] ---
Well...
[17:23] ---
I'm leaving.
[17:24] ---
But I won't let you!
[17:26] ---
No way!
[17:27] ---
Let me go!
[17:28] ---
I don't really care anymore.
[17:32] ---
The warning depth moved from C to B!
[17:34] ---
Enough.
[17:35] ---
I'm charging him now-
[17:36] ---
I said to wait!
[17:37] ---
Let me go!
[17:39] ---
No!
[17:40] ---
Damn it.
[17:43] ---
What are you doing?
[17:49] ---
To us, he may just be a target for charging.
[17:53] ---
But just like us, he suffers and worries.
[17:58] ---
People still cheer him on.
[18:01] ---
He has a heart. He's human!
[18:04] ---
I know.
[18:06] ---
The manga café's open, ain't it?
[18:10] ---
No!
[18:12] ---
You have a family that's cheering you on!
SIGN Test Passing Good Luck Charm
[18:56] ---
Charge!
[19:14] ---
Wh-What? Where am I?
[19:19] ---
Only five minutes till the test starts!
[19:22] ---
Oh, no.
[19:24] ---
I'm going to do it.
[19:25] ---
This year I'm going to pass!
[19:34] ---
I did it! I did it! I did it! I did it! I did it!
[19:40] ---
The hell you did.
[19:44] ---
My face is not a launchpad!
[19:46] ---
But I was able to jump really far.
[19:48] ---
Thanks.
[19:50] ---
And how about the results?
[19:54] ---
Well?
[19:56] ---
Huh?
[19:56] ---
Well?
[19:59] ---
You seem to have the wrong idea, so I'll set you straight.
[20:01] ---
Wrong idea?
[20:03] ---
We get paid for charging people.
[20:07] ---
I know that.
[20:08] ---
It's true that we may help people,
[20:11] ---
but if that were all that's needed,
[20:13] ---
they wouldn't worry about quotas and things like that.
[20:16] ---
You managed to save only one person after two full days.
[20:20] ---
That's reality.
[20:22] ---
And had he not dropped his good luck charm by chance,
[20:27] ---
would you have been able to save him?
[20:32] ---
You really aren't cut out for this job.
[20:53] ---
Arresta may be right.
[20:56] ---
But I want to believe that his good luck charm didn't fall from his pocket by chance.
[21:03] ---
That it was his family saying,
"Take care of him."
[21:13] ---
The next day, after completing two days of grueling entrance examinations,
[21:19] ---
Akihiro-kun was said to have a face filled with self-confidence and happiness.
[21:24] ---
OK, I'll do my best today!
[21:38] ---
So what?
[21:40] ---
What I said was right.
[21:42] ---
It was!
[22:20] ---
Damn it, Plug. How many times must I tell you not to pop out of nowhere?
[22:25] ---
But hitting her felt different this time...
[22:30] ---
Whatever.
[24:04] ---
Being a charger girl is hard work.
[24:07] ---
But it's also a wonderful job, giving hope and dreams to people who are down!
[24:12] ---
So, how much take-home pay do you get?
[24:13] ---
Any extra for overtime?
[24:14] ---
What about benefits?
[24:15] ---
Um, I'll let Arresta answer difficult questions like that.
[24:20] ---
What's wrong, Arresta?
[24:21] ---
What is this?
[24:23] ---
Next time on Charger Girl: Lock On!
[24:27] ---
This indescribable shock that pierces my brain... What's happening to my body?
[24:31] ---
Who knows?
[24:34] ---
See you next time!!
