    I'm paying you a lot here,

    His ideal match is someone with a job.
[02:52] Nancy
    Wants to marry and start a family,
[02:54] Nancy
    with an aim toward becoming
    a dedicated househusband, "heart mark."
[02:57] Taro
    Exactly!
[02:59] Taro
    I can't wait to be a househusband!
[03:02] Taro
    That's all I really want.
[03:04] Taro
    I don't care about looks, age, or nationality.
[03:05] Taro
    I just want a career girl I can
    dedicate my body and soul to!
[03:08] Taro
    Doesn't that make me sound awesome, Nancy?
[03:10] Nancy
    Honestly... it makes you sound terrible.
[03:14] Nancy
    If you want to get married, then first of all,
    you need to get your own act together.
[03:17] Taro
    But I don't want to work!
    That's why I want to get married!
[03:22] Nancy
    Look, if I were to introduce my clients
    to some slacker, it'd be bad for business!
[03:26] Taro
    Aw, come on!
[03:27] Nancy
    Less whining and more working! Got it?!
[03:32] Taro
    Man, why's everybody so dead set
    on a guy who can earn?
[03:38] Taro
    Was it a lie that women love a domestic man?
[03:41] Goro
    Huh? I was just here...
[03:44] Taro
    Man, I wanna be a househusband ASAP!
[03:45] Goro
    That's odd. Which way should I be going?
[03:48] Taro
    Yow!
[03:49] Taro
    Ow, ow, ow...
[03:50] Goro
    Pardon me! Are you all right?
[03:53] Goro
    You're not hurt, are you?
[04:00] Goro
    Oh, since we've run into each other,
    I was wondering...
[04:04] Goro
    I'm looking for this address.
[04:08] Taro
    That way! Go that way!
[04:11] Goro
    That way, then? I should've known!
[04:14] Goro
    Thank you so...
[04:16] Goro
    Huh?
[04:19] Taro
    What was that guy's deal?!
    That was freakin' terrifying!
[04:22] Taro
    Ugh, I can't run anymore.

    This sucks.

    Is there really no one around?
[05:07] Jiro
    Hey, did you hear something
    coming from upstairs?
[05:10] Rock
    Naw.
[05:11] Jiro
    Maybe it's Taro? Probably not, though.
[05:15] Jiro
    Ugh, I'm so bored! I wish
    something fun would happen.
[05:28] Goro
    Another dog?!
[05:30] Jiro
    Quiet, Saburo!
[05:33] Jiro
    You okay?
[05:35] Goro
    Uh, yes. Just a bit surprised.
[05:40] Goro
    I know! Tell me, son, are there
    any adults I could talk to here?
[05:45] Jiro
    Why?
[05:47] Goro
    I've got business with Monthly Moso Science's
    editorial department, on the second floor,
[05:51] Goro
    but a sign said to go to
    table six in this cafe...
[05:54] Jiro
    Then let's hear it.
[05:56] Goro
    Come on, son, I'm not sure
    you'd understand what I mean.
[06:01] Goro
    Actually, shouldn't you be in school?
    What are you doing here?
[06:05] Goro
    Where are your parents?
[06:08] Jiro
    I don't think I wanna discuss anything
    with a guy who has corns on his big toes.
[06:12] Goro
    How'd you know about my corns?!
[06:17] Taro
    Man, I'm exhausted.
[06:22] Goro
    Oh, thank you for earlier.
[06:25] Taro
    You really did come here!
[06:27] Jiro
    What, do you know him?

    What do you want with our editorial staff?!

    I'm terribly sorry. Let me give you my card.
[06:46] Goro
    Huh? Where did he go?
[06:48] Jiro
    To the bathroom?
[06:49] Goro
    It must have been an emergency.
[06:51] Jiro
    I don't think so.
    Maybe I should check on him.

[06:56] Jiro
    Hey, Taro, did you see
    something scary with him?
[07:00] Taro
    Scary doesn't begin to describe it!
[07:02] Taro
    I bet he's got really nasty
    karma from a past life,
[07:05] Taro
    like from trying to annihilate

[07:14] Jiro
    So you're a scientist

[07:17] Jiro
    One of the elite.
[07:18] Goro
    Now, son, about your friend...
[07:21] Jiro
    How about you stop
    that "son" stuff right now?
[07:23] Jiro
    My name is Jiro.
[07:26] Jiro
    And order something, because this is a cafe.
[07:29] Goro
    O-Okay.
[07:33] Goro
    Tell me, so—er, Jiro-kun,
    does your family own this place?
[07:37] Goro
    Are you helping out?
[07:39] Jiro
    Stop treating me like a child.
[07:41] Goro
    Sorry.
[07:42] Jiro
    I help out here every now and then
    because I owe the owner,
[07:47] Jiro
    but I'm an assistant at Monthly Moso Science.
[07:51] Goro
    You are?!
[07:51] Jiro
    Are you ready to order?
[07:53] Goro
    W-Well, I'll take a cream soda...
[07:58] Jiro
    I'll hear you out,
    but it'll have to wait a sec.
[08:01] Jiro
    Master! One cream soda!
[08:05] Rock
    You got it.
[08:06] Goro
    Oh, there's someone else working here.
[08:09] Goro
    What is this? A fortune-telling machine?
[08:11] Goro
    I guess I can try it.
[08:17] Goro
    Let's see.
SIGN    Super Bad
SIGN    Oh man,
    you're in
    big, big,
    biiiiiiiiig
    trouble!
[08:21] Goro
    Huh?
[08:24] Jiro
    Here you are.
[08:27] Jiro
    So, what's this story you have for us?
[08:32] Goro
    Well... Have you heard of the Mo Continent?
[08:36] Jiro
    Nope. What is it?
[08:38] Goro
    That makes sense. Considering your age...
[08:41] Goro
    Er, I didn't mean it that way!
[08:44] Goro
    It used to be a topic of
    conversation a fair while back.
[08:48] Goro
    My late great-grandmother used to
    mention it from time to time.
[08:53] Jiro
    And where exactly is this continent?
[08:55] Goro
    It doesn't exist anymore.
[08:57] Goro
    Well, to be honest, there are doubts
    about whether it existed at all.
[09:02] Jiro
    What do you mean?
[09:04] Goro
    A lot of it has to do with
    the mysteries surrounding it.
[09:08] Goro
    The Mo Continent was said
    to be home to the Motarians,
[09:12] Goro
    who wielded power beyond human conception.
[09:14] Goro
    They ruled over the world with
    their highly advanced civilization,
[09:17] Goro
    and in their glory,
     guided humanity, or so it's said.
[09:22] Goro
    But then, suddenly, the entire continent
    sank into the sea overnight,
[09:26] Goro
    and the advanced civilization
    of the Motarians was no more.
[09:31] Jiro
    Out of nowhere, just like that?
[09:33] Goro
    Out of nowhere, just like that.
[09:34] Jiro
    Sounds weird.
[09:37] Jiro
    If these people were so advanced,
[09:39] Jiro
    why couldn't they keep
    their continent from sinking?
[09:42] Goro
    That's the thing!
[09:44] Goro
    And why would they all sink
    along with the continent?
[09:47] Goro
    That might be the biggest mystery.
[09:49] Goro
    All of the literature I could find
    regarding it here in Most City
[09:52] Goro
    is missing pieces from over the ages
    or has been overwritten.
[09:56] Goro
    None of it can be considered trustworthy.
[10:01] Goro
    It's as if someone doesn't
    want the truth to be found.
[10:04] Goro
    Even I used to think the Mo
    Continent was a kind of fable.
[10:10] Goro
    Until I found it.
[10:17] Goro
    And what I found was...
[10:20] Goro
    one of the MOParts!
[10:24] Jiro
    Mo what now?
[10:26] Goro
    MOParts!
[10:27] Goro
    Mysterious artifacts believed
    to come from the Mo Continent!
[10:29] Goro
    Upon examination, they were clearly made
[10:31] Goro
    from unknown elements with an
    unidentified atomic structure,
[10:33] Goro
    but the real shocker is that they
    seemed to have been mentioned
[10:35] Goro
    in some of the material that I had seen
    that referenced the Mo Continent!
[10:37] Goro
    I believe this discovery could turn science—
[10:40] Goro
    no, global history itself on its head!
[10:42] Goro
    And so I quickly put together this paper!
[10:46] Goro
    And when I was getting ready
    to present it academically...
[10:50] Goro
    my laboratory's board of directors rejected it.
[10:54] Jiro
    Maybe it was too much writing for them?
[10:56] Goro
    I believe this is an appropriate
    amount of material
[10:58] Goro
    to cover artifacts from a continent like Mo
    that previously only existed speculatively...
[11:02] Goro
    Plus, the board seemed very interested
[11:05] Goro
    when I originally announced
    I had discovered a mystery material...
[11:09] Goro
    right up until I proved the connection
    to the Mo Continent.
[11:13] Goro
    And when I asked why it had been rejected,
    they wouldn't tell me anything.
[11:17] Goro
    That was when I saw Monthly
    Moso Science
in a bookstore
[11:21] Goro
    and thought you might be interested!
[11:23] Jiro
    We're not exactly a rigorous scientific
    journal. You sure about this?
[11:27] Goro
    Oh, don't say that! I've read a number
    of your back issues,
[11:30] Goro
    and I believe a fair bit of your material
    may be related to the Mo Continent.
[11:34] Goro
    The man-faced fish from
    this month's cover story
SIGN    Finally Discovered!
     The Man-Faced Fish!!!
[11:36] Goro
    is referred to in the Mo Continent
    documents I've seen!
[11:39] Jiro
    I... see.
[11:41] Goro
    If you agree to print my story,
    I'm willing to show you the MOPart.
[11:44] Jiro
    You have it with you?!
[11:46] Goro
    You'll be a believer, too, after seeing this!
[11:53] Taro
    Bwha—?!
[11:54] Goro
    Just look at that shine!
[11:58] Taro
    Dude, what did you bring in here?!
[12:00] Taro
    That's gotta be dangerous!
[12:03] Goro
    Do you understand how
    amazing it is?! What a relief!
[12:07] Goro
    It's so wonderful to meet
    someone else who gets it!
[12:08] Taro
    Stay back! I mean it!
[12:12] Taro
    We are not running this story! Hell no!
[12:15] Goro
    But—
[12:16] Taro
    Goodbye!
[12:19] Taro
    Man, that was a close one.
[12:21] Jiro
    You sure about this, Taro?
[12:23] Taro
    Yeah, I'm sure! You don't need
    to worry about his story, Jiro.
[12:26] Jiro
    He didn't pay for his cream soda yet.
[12:31] Taro
    I'll pay, then!
[12:34] Taro
    Aw, man, this is too much.
[12:38] Taro
    I'm gonna need three days off.
[12:39] Jiro
    What is it, Saburo?
    You want me to heal Taro?
[12:42] Taro
    How did I get wrapped up in such a mess?
[12:44] Jiro
    No way.
[12:45] Taro
    Maybe I'm getting too old for this.

[12:50] Goro
    So much for that. I sure wish
    I could find some way to publish it.
[12:57] Perch
    You're sure that's him?
[12:59] Noin
    Then let's get to work.
[13:07] Jiro
    The Mo Continent and MOParts, huh...
[13:10] Taro
    Are you still reading that sketchy crap?
[13:13] Jiro
    He did a pretty good job putting it together.
    And there's a ton of data.
[13:17] Taro
    Doesn't matter. I am not getting involved.
[13:20] Jiro
    But if you feel so strongly about it...
[13:23] Taro
    That's exactly why.
[13:25] Taro
    I just write whatever so that I can secure
    a bare minimum of living expenses.
[13:31] Taro
    I want to live life without
    taking any unnecessary risks.
[13:34] Taro
    Just like Old Man Rock, the cafe's owner.
[13:40] Taro
    Besides, I'm only doing this job
    until I get married, anyway.

[13:50] Jiro
    Isn't that...
[13:51] Taro
    What is it?
[13:53] Jiro
    That elite scientist who wrote
    this paper was in the news.
[13:56] Taro
    Did he do something?
[13:58] Jiro
    It says he almost got hit by a car.
[14:01] Jiro
    "The victim, Goro Sato (18),
    was having trouble walking
[14:06] Jiro
    due to having corns
    on both of his big toes."
[14:09] Jiro
    "Stricken with sudden stomach pains,
[14:11] Jiro
    he was crossing the street
    in search of a bathroom
[14:14] Jiro
    when he was struck by a vehicle
    that had run a red light,
[14:16] Jiro
    but was miraculously unharmed due
    to the large backpack he was wearing
[14:19] Jiro
    acting as a cushion."
[14:22] Jiro
    You think that might've been
    because of the MOPart he has?
[14:26] Taro
    Yeah. He's probably cursed.
[14:28] Jiro
    Having corns on both feet...
    that does seem really bad.
[14:31] Taro
    That's what caught your attention?
[14:33] Rock
    Those things really hurt, let me tell you.
[14:39] Rock
    Yeah, yeah, yeah...
[14:42] Rock
    Yeah? This is Cafe Rock.
[14:44] Rock
    One moment, please.
[14:46] Rock
    Taro, it's your editor-in-chief.
[14:49] Taro
    Ugh, Catherine?
[14:53] Taro
    Hello?
[14:55] Catherine
    You boys have quite the story
    on your hands, don't you?
[14:59] Taro
    Uh, I have no idea what
    you're talking abou—
[15:03] Catherine
    It sounds fascinating.
[15:04] Catherine
    I want you to look into
    that scientist's story.
[15:08] Taro
    Seriously?
[15:09] Taro
    I mean, we don't really need to.
    I can find another story to—
[15:11] Catherine
    Listen.
[15:12] Catherine
    Our readers are already tired
    of your flippantly delusional articles.
[15:17] Catherine
    I want this story.
[15:19] Taro
    But—
[15:21] Taro
    Aw, come on...
[15:23] Jiro
    What'd Catherine want?
[15:25] Taro
    She says we have to do a story
    on that scientist's paper.
[15:30] Jiro
    How'd she know?
[15:31] Taro
    Hell if I know. Maybe she
    has the place bugged.
[15:35] Taro
    Man, what a drag.

    Gah! That scared me!

    P-Please! You have to save me!

    Are you the scientist from before?
    What happened?

    W-Well... At the laboratory...

    Help—
[15:53] Jiro
    Hello? Hello?
[15:56] Taro
    What was that?
[15:57] Jiro
    I dunno. He asked for help, and it cut off.
[16:04] Taro
    What? An earthquake?!
[16:05] Jiro
    Could it be—
[16:06] Taro
    Could it be what?!
[16:10] Taro
    Jiro!
[16:11] Taro
    What the heck is going on?

    Look!

    Huh? That's...

    It's Science Laboratories!

[16:30] Taro
    Wait up!

[16:46] Taro
    Really? Let's head back, then.
[16:48] Jiro
    I don't think so.
    Not after coming all this way.
[16:51] Jiro
    What is it, Saburo?
[16:54] Jiro
    We can sneak in from here?
    Can we make it over?
[16:57] Taro
    Are you serious?
[16:59] Jiro
    Hup...
[16:59] Jiro
    Nice! Now all the way up!
[17:02] Jiro

    Uh, I'm gonna wait here!

    Where do you think he is?
[17:29] Taro
    Are you enjoying yourself that much, Jiro?
[17:33] Jiro
    No, not really.
[17:34] Jiro
    It's just... if something happened to the
    subject of a story, Catherine would get mad.
[17:39] Jiro
    Taro! Look over there.
[17:41] Taro
    Whoa, what is this?
[17:44] Taro
    Was the explosion here?
[17:46] Jiro
    You think he's still alive?
[17:47] Taro
    No clue.
[17:51] Jiro
    But why would there be
    an explosion out here?

    Help!

    Wait, wait, wait!
[18:13] Goro
    You came to save me!
[18:16] Taro
    That was actually
    the last thing I wanted to do!
[18:19] Taro
    Ow! Watch it! Can't you run normally?!
[18:22] Goro
    My corns hurt too much!
[18:25] Jiro
    Yeowch...
[18:26] Jiro
    Okay. No other way around it.
[18:38] Goro
    The pain... is gone!
[18:40] Goro
    Right this way, you two!
[18:42] Taro
    That's a rare sight. You actually healed him.
[18:45] Jiro
    It's kind of an emergency!
[18:47] Jiro
    Come on, let's go!
[18:48] Taro
    He's absolutely enjoying this.
[18:57] Goro
    We should be safe here.
[18:59] Taro
    Who the hell are those people?
[19:01] Goro
    I'd like to know that myself!
[19:02] Goro
    I came to the lab, and then they attacked me!
[19:05] Jiro
    What about the explosion?
[19:06] Goro
    They caught me once
    when I was on the phone.
[19:09] Goro
    They said, "You'd better stay put,
    or we'll do this" and then, boom!
[19:13] Jiro
    But you still ran?
[19:15] Goro
    I thought they'd blow me up
    either way, honestly.
[19:17] Taro
    You're gutsier than I figured.
[19:19] Jiro
    Are these guys after that MOPart of yours?
[19:24] Goro
    Could that be it?!
[19:26] Goro
    No, it has to be!
[19:29] Goro
    They've probably been
    threatening the board, too!
[19:32] Taro
    Come on. You're letting your
    imagination run away with you.
[19:34] Taro
    You could always just try and hand it over.
[19:37] Goro
    I can't! I've sworn to dedicate
    my life to studying MOParts!
[19:48] MIB A
    Is this really a good idea?
[19:50] MIB B
    Since this is the first time, the bosses
    said we should go at it kinda hard.
[19:54] MIB B
    Stop resisting, and hand the bag over!
[19:59] Goro
    You mean the MOPart?!
[20:02] MIB B
    Do I mean the MOPart?
[20:04] MIB A
    No clue. We weren't given the specifics.
[20:09] MIB B
    Probably, yeah!
[20:10] Goro
    In that case, never!
[20:12] Taro
    Okay, let's hand it over!
[20:13] Goro
    Hey! What are you saying?!
[20:15] Taro
    Just do it! These guys are serious!
[20:18] Taro
    Besides, maybe all your bad luck is coming
    from that crazy crap you've got!
[20:22] Taro
    Giving it away would solve everything!
[20:23] Goro
    Never! I'm going to make it my life's work!
[20:26] Taro
    Just let go!
[20:28] Goro
    No!
[20:28] Jiro
    What're you two doing?!
[20:29] Taro
    Let go already!
[20:30] Goro
    Never! I will not—
[20:33] MIB B
    Oh, no!
[20:35] Taro
    I'm dead!
[20:39] Goro
    My MOPart!
[20:41] Goro
    Sorry!
[21:17] Jiro
    What the heck?!
[21:23] Goro
    I-Is that Taro-san?
[21:25] Jiro
    It... seems like it.
[21:30] Taro
    Wow!
[21:31] MIB B
    What is that thing?!
[21:32] MIB A
    No one warned us about this!
[21:38] Jiro
    That's going too far, Taro! Come on!
[21:40] Jiro
    Stop! Enough!
[21:40] MIB A
    Everybody run!
[21:44] Jiro
    He's not listening!
[21:52] Noin
    That's a Motarian!
[21:54] Perch
    What's a Motarian doing here?
[21:56] Noin
    Damn it! Let's go!
[21:58] Perch
    Wait, Noin.
[21:59] Noin
    But, Perch—
[22:01] Perch
    If a Motarian is involved, our priority
    becomes informing the boss about it.
[22:07] Noin
    Yeah...
[22:22] Edward
    I see.
[22:24] Edward
    Then a Motarian has ruined our plan.
[22:28] Perch
    Yes, sir. What should we do now?
[22:30] Noin
    You want us to catch him, Boss?!
[22:32] Edward
    No, let's wait.
[22:37] Edward
    I've got an idea.
[22:40] Taro
    Ow, ow, ow...
[22:43] Taro
    Damn it, why do I hurt all over?
[22:46] Taro
    It's like I've got muscle strain
    across my whole body.
[22:50] Jiro
    So you seriously don't remember?
[22:53] Taro
    Don't remember what?!

[00:07] Goro
    It's a pleasure to be working with you!
[00:09] Both
    Huh?
[00:13] Taro
    Ow, ow, ow... Yeow, ow, ow...
[00:17] Goro
    Are you all right?
[00:19] Taro
    Obviously not! Can't you tell?
[00:22] Goro
    Well, given what you did...
[00:29] Goro
    I can see how that'd cause
    full-body muscle strain.
[00:34] Jiro
    He doesn't remember a thing, though.
[00:37] Goro
    Really?
[00:39] Goro
    No memory of the transformation...
[00:42] Goro
    That is fascinating.
[00:45] Taro
    What are you two babbling about, anyway?
[00:48] Taro
    Jiro, could you do the thing
    and maybe help me out?
[00:53] Goro
    Oh, I've got just the solution.
[00:56] Taro
    What the hell's that?
[00:58] Goro
    A poultice with an herbal treatment for pain.
[01:02] Goro
    How's right here?
[01:04] Taro
    A little lower.
[01:05] Taro
    To the right. Bingo.
[01:08] Goro
    My dearly departed
    great-grandmother used these often.
[01:12] Goro
    They were used on a daily basis in
    the time of the Mo Continent, though.
[01:17] Taro
    The Mo Continent?
[01:19] Taro
    Oh, I remember when everyone
    was putting out stories about that.
[01:23] Taro
    Turned out to be a load of crap.
[01:26] Goro
    Not so! I believe that the Mo
    Continent did, in fact, exist!
[01:31] Goro
    It was no coincidence
    that I encountered that MOPart.
[01:34] Goro
    I believe it to be a message
    from the Mo Continent...
[01:39] Goro
    No, the Motarians, asking me
    to uncover their hidden past!
[01:43] Taro
    Mowhat exactly?
[01:45] Goro
    Motarians!
[01:46] Goro
    The race that inhabited the continent of Mo,
    who were said to have special powers!
[01:52] Taro
    Special like how?
[01:56] Goro
    I'm not sure.
[01:57] Goro
    The Motarians are believed to have gone
    extinct with the loss of their continent.
[02:03] Taro
    What's your take on this?
[02:04] Jiro
    Couldn't hurt to humor him.
[02:09] Goro
    Regardless, I believe it to be my duty
    to learn the truth of the Mo Continent!
[02:13] Jiro
    Oh, I need to call my matchmaker!
[02:16] Jiro
    Did they find me a nice lady
    to marry? I sure hope so!
[02:22] Jiro
    Hey, how am I supposed
    to use the phone now?
[02:24] Goro
    It's time for an editorial meeting.
[02:28] Goro
    We need to figure out our stories for next
    month, or they won't be ready in time.
[02:31] Taro
    And why do you care?
[02:34] Goro
    Don't you remember what I just said?
[02:36] Goro
    I work here now.
[02:38] Taro
    He does?
[02:39] Jiro
    I dunno.
[02:41] Goro
    Once again, from the top, then...
[02:44] Goro
    I am your new coworker
    starting today, Goro Sato!
[02:49] Goro
    Oh, it's all so over-scientific!
[02:54] Jiro
    Over what now?
[02:58] Catherine
    Good morning. Are you
    boys making magic today?
[03:03] Jiro
    Catherine.
[03:06] Goro
    Good day to you, editor-in-chief!
[03:08] Catherine
    Oh, it's the scientist.
    You're starting with us today, yes?
[03:11] Goro
    Yes!
[03:12] Taro
    Aw, come on, what is this?
[03:14] Catherine
    I hired him.
[03:17] Catherine
    Master, are you awake?
[03:20] Rock
    Oh, Catherine. Welcome.
[03:23] Catherine
    My usual, please.
[03:25] Rock
    Coming up.
[03:33] Catherine
    Thank you.
[03:36] Catherine
    What an aroma!
[03:38] Catherine
    Oh, that reminds me. We received a tip.
    Something about a glowing well.
[03:44] Both
    A glowing well?
[03:45] Catherine
    I've invited the tipster to the cafe.
[03:48] Catherine
    They should be on the way, so hear them
    out and start working on the story.
[03:52] Catherine
    You boys behave, now.
[03:59] Jiro
    A glowing well, huh?
[04:01] Goro
    Why, that's downright fascinating!
[04:04] Goro
    It couldn't be more over-scientific!
[04:07] Taro
    Why do you keep calling things over-whatever?
[04:12] Goro
    I was up late last night thinking up a new
    catchphrase for Monthly Moso Science!
[04:17] Goro
    I'd like it to become a national phenomenon!
[04:20] Taro
    That's not...
[04:21] Jiro
    ...gonna happen, I think.
[04:23] Goro
    No! All trends are created through effort!

    Oh, over-scientific!

    Why Are You Working Here?!
[06:09] Goro
    I see.
[06:11] Goro
    A glowing well near your school's
    training camp site...
[06:15] Chang/Ling/Xian
    Right.
[06:15] Chang
    The three of us are in the tennis club,
[06:18] Chang
    and we snuck out one night
    during the training camp...
[06:20] Chang
    We tried to get into the mansion next door.
[06:23] Ling
    The older students say
    the well on that property is crazy...
[06:26] Ling
    We wanted to check out the rumors.
[06:28] Xian
    So we found a well that had a cover on it.
[06:31] Goro
    A cover?
[06:32] Chang
    And after we took it off,
    the inside of the well just lit up!
[06:37] Jiro
    It lit up?
[06:39] Ling
    Not just that, but then water
    started shooting out like a fountain!
[06:42] Jiro
    It shot out?
[06:44] Xian
    And then there was this noise,
    and the water started dancing!
[06:47] Jiro
    Dancing water?!
[06:48] Goro
    I see, I see...
[06:51] Taro
    Aw, come on, these kids probably
    just made up some nonsense
[06:54] Taro
    hoping they could get a reward
    for submitting a story.
[06:59] Chang
    But it's true! The well actually lit up!
[07:02] Ling
    And shot water like a fountain!
[07:03] Xian
    And then there was this noise,
    and the water started dancing!

    Are you serious?
[07:15] Goro
    I still remember the pain I felt when
    no one acknowledged my research.
[07:20] Goro
    I decided that I would
    always start by believing.
[07:24] Goro
    For now, we'll head to the well in question.
[07:26] Goro
    Could you tell us where it is?
[07:28] Chang
    Sure! I'll draw you a map.
[07:31] Jiro
    You won't be getting paid until
    we've checked it out, mind you.
[07:37] Goro
    Let's head there right away.
[07:39] Jiro
    If you insist...!
[07:42] Taro
    You two have fun, now.
[07:47] Jiro
    You're not coming?
[07:48] Taro
    Obviously not. How am I supposed to move
    when my whole body is...
[07:56] Taro
    Feeling better!
[07:57] Jiro
    Which means you can join us.
[07:59] Taro
    Just like that, huh?
[08:03] Goro
    What was that just now?
[08:05] Jiro
    Taro's coming too. Let's get a
    move on before he changes his mind.
[08:12] Taro
    Gimme a break...
[08:15] Goro
    Let's see... According to the map,
[08:19] Goro
    it's right this way.
[08:20] Jiro
    Looks like it!
[08:22] Taro
    I seriously don't get why I'm here.
[08:26] Goro
    Do stay close by, Taro, Saburo,
    so we don't get separated.
[08:31] Taro
    Look at the new guy, getting a big head...
[08:34] Taro
    Didn't you used to work for
    some big-shot government lab?
[08:38] Taro
    And now you're at our magazine?
[08:41] Goro
    That does bother you, huh?
[08:43] Taro
    Not really, no.
[08:45] Goro
    To be honest, I was held responsible
    for the explosion at the lab...
[08:49] Goro
    and removed from my position.
[08:52] Goro
    Which led to...
[08:53] (Flashback) Catherine
    Let's put the knowledge and
    research you gained from that lab
[08:56] (Flashback) Catherine
    to work for Monthly Moso Science!
[09:00] Goro
    The editor-in-chief offered me a job.
[09:03] Goro
    I was thrilled, since I was depressed
    about having lost my old one.
[09:09] Taro
    So, in other words,
    she reeled you in with ease.
[09:11] Jiro
    Even though we make next
    to nothing in terms of money.
[09:15] Goro
    I want to live up to
    the chief's expectations...
[09:19] Goro
    With a feature on a truly over-scientific
    subject for next month's issue!
[09:23] Goro
    Enough to increase our circulation!
[09:25] Taro
    And you're gonna do that writing
    about a glowing well?
[09:29] Goro
    No, there's a much more
    intriguing lead to work on!
[09:34] Goro
    You, namely!
[09:36] Taro
    Me...?
[09:37] Goro
    Your transformation from before...
[09:39] Goro
    It could only be described
    as over-scientific!
[09:42] Goro
    I know! Could you do it again?
[09:48] Taro
    What's that you've got?
[09:50] Goro
    The MOPart I showed you the other day.
[09:52] Goro
    Although its shape has changed.
[09:54] Taro
    What?!
[09:57] Taro
    Cut that out!
[09:59] Taro
    Huh? It doesn't seem as bad...
[10:02] Goro
    You're not changing. I wonder why.
[10:05] Taro
    It's like I told you,
    I don't remember any of it!
[10:09] Goro
    That would imply there's
    some kind of trigger...
[10:12] Goro
    Perhaps some sort of
    physiological mechanism?
[10:13] Taro
    That tickles! Stop!
[10:15] Goro
    Where could it be? Maybe here?
[10:17] Jiro
    I know! Maybe if you're in danger again...
[10:21] Jiro
    Saburo!
[10:24] Goro
    Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!
[10:26] Goro
    Make him stop! Why?!
[10:28] Jiro
    That's enough, Saburo.
[10:29] Goro
    This is so painful...
[10:32] Goro
    Excuse me! So I just get bitten for nothing?!
[10:38] Edward
    Excuse me?
[10:39] Edward
    Most of the men are out of commission?
    What's the meaning of this?
[10:44] Perch
    It was the Motarian we mentioned...
[10:47] Noin
    He seriously kicked their butts!
[10:49] Edward
    You two will have to recover
    the MOPart yourselves, then.
[10:55] Perch
    Yes. Of course, boss.
[10:57] Noin
    We're not letting the Motarian keep it!
[10:59] Edward
    Begin the search at once and
    relieve them of anything they have.
[11:04] Both
    Yes, boss.
[11:20] Edward
    A surviving Motarian...
    That comes as a surprise.
[11:26] Edward
    Nothing of concern, however.
    The MOParts will be mine.
[11:40] Taro
    Hey, are we there yet? I'm tired.
[11:45] Jiro
    Just a little farther.
[11:47] Taro
    Aw, man...
[11:51] Perch
    Listen up, Noin. We have them
    find the MOPart first...
[11:56] Noin
    And then I swipe it from them!
[12:03] Jiro
    The map says it's around here.
[12:06] Goro
    I don't see a way in.
[12:08] Taro
    Damn, you guys walk too fast.
[12:13] Goro
    There's the school's training camp building,
    like the students mentioned.
[12:19] Jiro
    Hey, Taro, do you see
    anything dangerous from here?
[12:25] Taro
    Nothing stands out...
[12:26] Goro
    What do you mean by dangerous?
    What are you talking about?
[12:30] Taro
    Too close! Get out of
    my personal space, man!
[12:33] Jiro
    This location... could it be...?
[12:36] Jiro
    Below here?
[12:36] Goro
    You two are hiding something
    from me, aren't you?
[12:39] Goro
    Please wait!
[12:41] Taro
    Give it a rest!
[12:49] Taro
    Ow, ow, ow...
[12:52] Goro
    Is everyone all right?
[12:54] Jiro
    Yeah.
[12:56] Jiro
    Look...
[12:58] Goro
    A well!
[13:06] Jiro
    I guess we'll start by opening it.
[13:09] Goro
    Allow me, the oldest, to do the honors.
[13:11] Goro
    I wouldn't want to expose a child to danger!
[13:15] Jiro
    This is heavy...
     Could you two give me a hand?
[13:18] Goro
    Oh, right away...
[13:22] Jiro
    Push when I say ready.
[13:24] Jiro
    Ready and...
[13:28] Taro
    Ow, ow, ow...
[13:29] Taro
    Look, I'm worn out already.
    Can I head back to the office?
[13:35] Jiro
    One more time! Ready and...
[13:44] Jiro
    It's almost there! Ready and...
[13:47] Taro
    Stop! Do not open that thing!
[13:51] Jiro
    Got it!
[13:58] Jiro
    They fell in.
[14:11] Goro
    Hey!
[14:12] Jiro
    You alive?
[14:13] Taro
    Please! Get me out of here!
[14:17] Goro
    What a relief. He seems fine.
[14:19] Taro
    Do I look fine to you?! Save me already!
[14:23] Jiro
    How do we do that, though?
[14:25] Goro
    I actually think I have a rope!
[14:37] Perch
    There, Noin.
[14:38] Noin
    Yeah.
[14:41] Taro
    This is so nasty...
[14:46] Goro
    There it is!
[14:47] Goro
    Let's pull them up with this, Jiro.
[14:54] Goro
    Ow, ow, ow!
[14:56] Jiro
    Who are you—
[14:58] Perch
    Not another move.
[14:59] Goro

    Quit treating me like a kid!
[15:04] Goro
    But...
[15:06] Goro
    In any case, don't hurt him!
[15:08] Perch
    Let's live up to
    the scientist's expectations...
[15:11] Perch
    And hurt him more, Noin.
[15:14] Goro
    How do you know about—
[15:15] Goro
    Ow! Ow! Ow!
[15:25] Perch
    Don't move.
[15:27] Perch
    I've got it right here, Noin.
[15:29] Noin
    And with that taken care of...
[15:41] Jiro
    What is this?! What just happened?!
[15:48] Goro
    It's just like the students said!
[15:51] Jiro
    What the heck?!
[15:52] Perch
    That bucket... could it be
    the power of that MOPart?
[15:57] Noin
    What?!
[15:59] Taro
    What's with the light show?!
[16:01] Taro
    What is any of this?!
[16:03] Taro
    Oh man, where is it even coming from?!
[16:06] Taro
    Where'd all the water come
    from?! There's so much!
[16:08] Goro
    What a remarkable sight!
[16:10] Goro
    This is exactly what
    I mean by over-scientific!
[16:16] Jiro
    Seriously, that is not going to take off.
[16:18] Goro
    Magnificent!
[16:21] Goro
    This is guaranteed to up our circulation!
[16:27] Taro
    Stop having fun and help us!
[16:32] Noin
    I knew it. It's that bucket!
[16:34] Perch
    No. Look closer, Noin.
[16:37] Perch
    It's the decoration on the bucket.
[16:42] Perch
    I need you to grab it.
[16:43] Noin
    Consider it done, Perch.
[16:46] Taro
    We're falling!
[16:48] Noin
    Now!
[16:49] Noin
    They're ours!
[16:50] Taro
    Help!
[17:09] Jiro
    Wait, this is just like...
[17:31] Noin
    He transformed!
[17:33] Jiro
    I see. That's the trick.
[17:36] Jiro
    When it touches Taro's forehead...
[17:43] Perch
    Is this the MOPart?
[17:45] Noin
    Perch!
[17:53] Perch
    Noin!
[17:53] Noin
    Perch!
[17:58] Perch
    Noin!
[18:07] Goro
    Remarkable! That's it! Go get them!
[18:10] Perch
    Help!
[18:21] Noin
    Perch!
[18:24] Noin
    You okay?!
[18:25] Perch
    He took the... MOPart...

[18:31] Noin
    Dammit! This isn't over!

    Gee, what're you talking about?
[19:35] Taro
    Little punk...
[19:37] Taro
    And could you throw that...
    decoration or whatever away?
[19:40] Taro
    It's freaking me out.
[19:46] Jiro
    Did you figure anything out?
[19:49] Goro
    It seems different from
    the first MOPart I encountered.
[19:52] Goro
    But based on Taro's reaction,
    I'm fairly certain it is one!
[19:58] Jiro
    Pretty clever!
[20:08] Jiro
    It changed shape?
[20:12] Taro
    Huh? It doesn't feel creepy anymore.
[20:15] Goro
    Could it be...?
[20:20] Goro/Jiro
    It fits!
[20:21] Jiro
    I think those weirdos might be
    after the same thing.
[20:26] Goro
    It seems like there's bound
    to be more pieces, as well.
[20:29] Goro
    That being the case, if we
    can collect all the MOParts...
[20:33] Goro
    There's likely to be some kind of
    over-scientific phenomenon as a result!
[20:37] Jiro
    It seems like some is missing, though.
[20:40] Goro
    True.
[20:42] Taro
    What are you two blabbering about?
[20:46] Jiro
    Oh, right, you probably
    don't remember this, Taro...
[20:49] Jiro
    But I figured out how to make you transform.
[20:54] Goro
    You did?! How does it work?
[20:58] Jiro
    Not gonna tell yet!
[21:00] Goro
    Jiro, please!
[21:03] Jiro
    Not yet!
[21:04] Taro
    Dammit, I don't wanna
    transform again anyway!
[21:08] Taro
    Not that I remember doing it!
[21:12] Perch/Noin
    We're so sorry, boss.
[21:15] Noin
    But next time, we'll collect everything.
[21:17] Perch
    We're gonna get 'em!
[21:18] Edward
    I would certainly hope so.
[21:21] Perch/Noin
    Yes, boss.
[21:37] Edward
    To think they'd steal more MOParts...

    Our plan requires gathering all of them.

SIGN    Edward Chi.
    Born August 25th.
    A resident of Most City's
    Hightown. Traveled the world
    during his youth because of his
    parent's business. At 14, he
     graduated High Society School
    at the top of his class. Studied
    a variety of fields at International
     College including law,
    engineering, and economics.
    Worked at Science Laboratory
    at 19 before personal
     circumstances led him to resign.
    Became an entrepreneur
    afterwards. Two years later,
    he founded the W.P. Company,
    which started as a small
    security firm in a single room
    at first, before moving on to
     packaged foods and
    cosmetics along with
    other...
[04:51] Goro

    Fail... fail...
[04:59] Goro
    Jiro...?
[05:01] Jiro
    Huh? What was I...?
[05:03] Goro
    Look here!
[05:04] Goro
    I believe that the duo we encountered
    works for this company.
[05:08] Jiro
    Hey, that logo... The White Pegasus Company?
[05:13] Goro
    From what I can tell,
    their operations are so diverse
[05:16] Goro
    it's hard to tell what they really do.
[05:18] Goro
    But what I can say for certain
[05:20] Goro
    is that they are after the MOParts as well.
[05:25] Jiro
    Maybe it has something to do
    with Taro's transformation?
[05:28] Goro
    Oh, about that, the other day...

    Aw, dammit...

    How did I end up sitting
    here with you, Jiro?
[05:50] Jiro
    What can you do? The lady
    said she had to cancel.
[05:55] Taro
    That doesn't explain anything...
[05:57] Taro
    And what're you grinning about?
[05:59] Taro
    You a big theater fan or something?
[06:01] Jiro
    Uh, no, not exactly.
[06:08] Taro
    Gotta say, for an actor so popular,
    this place isn't close to full.
[06:13] Audience 1
    If he starts up again...
[06:15] Audience 2
    It really is a bit too much.
[06:17] Taro
    What's "it"?
[06:20] Jiro
    I wonder what they mean.
[06:33] Omelette
    O Tomeo, wherefore art thou Tomeo?
[06:39] Hananosuke
    Call upon me, and henceforth,
    I will always be Tomeo!
[06:42] Hananosuke
    And wherefore art thou Omelette?
[06:45] Hananosuke
    O Omelette!
[06:47] Taro
    That's the star, Hananosuke, right?
[06:50] Jiro
    Yeah. Everything seems fine so far.
[06:54] Omelette
    'Tis but thy name that is my enemy.
[06:58] Omelette
    Dear Tomeo, cast aside thy name!
[07:01] Omelette
    And in exchange, take all of myself.
[07:06] Hananosuke
    I shall do as you ask!
[07:09] Hananosuke
    And all that I ask in return
    is you call me beloved!
[07:16] Hananosuke
    Do this, and it will be
    as if I have been reborn!
[07:22] Hananosuke
    And from henceforth, I will, will, will
[07:27] Hananosuke

[08:32] Catherine
    I caught the show myself.
[08:35] Catherine
    Our publishing group even covered
    the cost of the ticket.
[08:39] Taro
    What? That's a thing?
[08:41] Taro
    We've never expensed anything before.
[08:43] Catherine
    More importantly, I want you to
     get backstage and start digging.
[08:46] Catherine
    I already spoke to the staff.
[08:49] Jiro
    Oh, can we?!
[08:50] Catherine
    I mean, you did see that performance, right?
[08:53] Catherine
    Hananosuke's suddenly started
    singing his lines at random lately,
[08:57] Catherine
    which is tanking his popularity.
[08:59] Catherine
    Seems to be quite the mess.

    Regardless, something is going on.

    I want you to start digging, in depth,
    and write something impressive.

    This is the page that I remembered, though!
[13:07] Jiro
    An article about Hananosuke!
[13:09] Goro
    Look here.
[13:10] Goro
    He started singing randomly at around
    the same time as this breakup.
[13:15] Jiro
    So, his ex-girlfriend might be the cause?
[13:20] Hananosuke
    You knew about it, then...?
[13:23] Jiro
    The article's actually true?
[13:25] Hananosuke
    Yes. Our families objected to our marriage
    due to a difference in social standing...
[13:30] Hananosuke
    Which resulted in us splitting up.
[13:34] Jiro
    And it was after that when you started
    acting like you're in a musical?
[13:39] Hananosuke
    Right. At first, it didn't occur to me,
    but thinking about it now...
[13:47] Taro
    I can't believe they're willing to go
    right up to Hananosuke like that.
[13:52] Taro
    There is something super
    creepy stuck to him.
[13:56] Hananosuke
    Thank you so much for looking into things.
[14:00] Hananosuke
    Oh, I know. Would you like to stay
    for my final performance?
[14:06] Jiro
    Final?
[14:08] Hananosuke
    Right. I can't perform
    like I used to anymore...
[14:12] Hananosuke
    Which is why I'm thinking
    of making this my last show.
[14:16] Goro
    Sure, we'd love to. Right?
[14:18] Jiro
    Yeah...
[14:21] Taro
    Big pass from me. I don't
    wanna get knocked out again.
[14:24] Goro
    We'll head on over, then.
[14:27] Goro
    Oh, Taro, would you mind looking
    after my bag during the show?
[14:33] Taro
    Sure thing.
[14:35] Jiro
    I guess it's something psychological
    stemming from the breakup...?
[14:39] Goro
    The fact that he starts singing
    like that in his daily life...
[14:43] Goro
    Could it have some kind of tie
    to his old girlfriend, perhaps?
[14:48] Jiro
    I wonder what Taro was seeing, then?
[14:51] (Flashback) Taro
    Th-That dude is trouble...!
[14:54] (Flashback) Taro
    Crap, crap, crap!
    I can't deal with this guy!
[14:58] Jiro
    Maybe there could be some other cause.
[15:02] Goro
    You mean a MOPart?!
[15:04] Goro
    But there wasn't anything obvious...
[15:29] Taro
    Wait, when did that happen?!
[15:32] Taro
    Hey, give that back!
[15:45] Noin
    Dammit!
[15:56] Noin
    How far is this dog going to chase me?!
[16:00] Omelette
    O Tomeo, wherefore art thou Tomeo?
[16:05] Hananosuke
    Call upon me, and henceforth,
    I will always be Tomeo!
[16:06] Noin
    Give it a rest!
[16:11] Perch
    Pass it here, Noin!
[16:14] Jiro
    Wait, what is this?
[16:16] Jiro
    And aren't they—
[16:17] Goro
    Look at that!
[16:19] Goro
    It's my bag!
[16:20] Taro
    Could you guys not just run off
    with other people's stuff?
[16:25] Goro
    Give my bag back!
[16:27] Perch
    That is not happening!
[16:31] Goro
    My bag!
[16:33] Hananosuke
    I shall do as you ask!
[16:37] Hananosuke
    And all that I ask in return...
[16:41] Audience 1
    Is this a new bit?
[16:43] Audience 2
    Maybe they changed it up
    to attract a bigger audience?
[16:47] Hananosuke
    Call me beloved!
[16:51] Leah
    Beloved...?
[17:10] Audience 1
    What a neat effect!
[17:12] Audience 2
    They're really leaning into spectacle!
[17:15] Jiro
    The ring... That's it!
    It's the ring causing it!
[17:20] Hananosuke
    And from henceforth, I will, will, will...
[17:24] Hananosuke
    I will never be Tomeo!
[17:28] Taro
    My dream is to be a house husband!
[17:33] Goro
    Return my bag!
[17:36] Noin
    They've all started singing.
[17:38] Perch
    This might be our chance, Noin.
[17:40] Noin
    Yeah.
[17:41] Noin
    We're taking this!
[17:43] Goro
    I can't allow that!
[17:47] Hananosuke
    What light through yonder window breaks?
[17:50] Hananosuke
    It is the East...
[17:52] Jiro
    Taro! Look over here!
[17:55] Taro
    What's up?
[18:56] Jiro
    Whatever this is, it's awesome.
[19:39] Perch
    Noin, look.
[19:41] Noin
    A MOPart!
[19:45] Hananosuke
    I just can't forget about you.
    Please, stay by my side.
[19:49] Leah
    Yes. We'll always be together!
[19:57] Jiro
    Well, I guess it all worked out?
[20:08] Taro
    Ow, ow, ow...
[20:11] Taro
    Dammit, the muscle strain
    is worse than usual this time.
[20:17] Jiro
    I guess Hananosuke's going to keep acting,
[20:19] Jiro
    in addition to getting married
    to his girlfriend.
[20:24] Taro
    Wait, that's Miss Leah!
[20:27] Goro
    The one who canceled her match with you?
[20:30] Jiro
    According to the article,
    after they broke up,
[20:33] Jiro
    she was trying to forget about Hananosuke...
[20:36] (Flashback) Leah
    I need to get married right away!
[20:38] (Flashback) Leah
    No requirements whatsoever!
[20:42] Jiro
    And despite looking for a match, the first date
    she got ended up being at Hananosuke's show...
[20:48] Jiro
    Which just ended up reminding her of him,
    so she decided to ditch the matchmaking.
[20:55] Taro
    Dammit, what the hell?
[20:58] Taro
    Ow, ow, ow...
[21:00] Jiro
    And it seems like the matching rings
    they bought while on vacation together
[21:04] Jiro
    are what caused the singing problem.
[21:08] Goro
    And those rings were actually a MOPart!
[21:11] Goro
    Oh, it's so over-scientific!
[21:14] Jiro
    And what happened with that MOPart?
[21:17] Goro
    You didn't collect it, Jiro?
[21:19] Jiro
    I thought you did?
[21:26] Jiro
    Then that means...
[21:29] Edward
    I finally have one.
[21:31] Edward
    And this will enable transformations, yes?
[21:34] Duo
    Yes, boss.
[21:46] Edward
    Making this a one-on-one
    fight between Motarians...
[21:49] Edward
    Our victory is coming into view.

    I figure for next month's featured article,
    we can just do "Kappa Autopsies."
[00:10] Goro
    We just did a story about kappas.
[00:13] Taro
    I guess UFOs or prophecies, then.
[00:15] Goro
    Those were stories from the end of last year.
[00:18] Taro
    Why don't we put them together
    for the great prophesied UFO warrior?
[00:21] Goro
    Why rehash old stories
[00:24] Goro
    when we could investigate
    and put together something new?
[00:27] Taro
    Yeah? Like what?
[00:32] Goro
    What about an expose on the truth behind
    the mysterious White Pegasus Company?
[00:37] Taro
    White Pegasus?
[00:39] Goro
    That duo that's been lurking
    around us so much lately...
[00:42] Goro
    I believe they have some kind of
     connection to the company.
[00:45] Goro
    We could learn who they are
[00:47] Goro
    and come up with something
    for the magazine at the same time!
[00:49] Catherine
    It's not very Monthly Moso

[00:54] Rock

[01:10] Jiro
    We're getting that ad, too?
[01:13] Taro
    It's supposed to raise your

    Well, try and boost our sales enough

[01:42] Taro
    And how are we supposed to do
    that without some kinda scoop?
[01:47] Jiro
    What if we did a story about
    the mysterious beastman?!
[01:51] Taro
    What beastman? Where?
[01:53] Jiro
    Right here.
[01:54] Goro
    Oh, that is an idea!
[01:56] Taro
    No, it isn't! How am I a beastman?!
[01:59] Goro
    Because you transform into a weretiger.
[02:01] Taro
    Except I don't remember that happening!
[02:04] Taro
    And to make it worse, I wake up
    with a bunch of muscle strain,
[02:08] Taro
    and I have no idea why.
[02:09] Taro
    I say no!
[02:10] Jiro
    Then what do we do for our feature?
[02:13] Taro
    "Great Prophecies of the Kappa" will be fine.
[02:16] Jiro
    Maybe if that'd actually boost our sales.
[02:19] Goro
    We really should investigate a proper story!
[02:23] Taro
    But White Pegasus is a no-go.
[02:26] Goro
    Then we'll go with Plan B: Loch Nuss!

    The groundskeeper of the

[04:12] Goro
    claims that Nussie really does exist!
[04:14] Taro
    No way.
[04:16] Goro
    I looked into the data, and it seems
    that the loch is remarkably deep,
[04:21] Goro
    with enough space for a dinosaur
    from ancient times to hide.
[04:24] Jiro
    You read magazines like this, Goro?
[04:26] Goro
    I was curious about the article
    on space pyramid tents
[04:29] Goro
    that are said to gather cosmic power.
[04:32] Taro
    Is this the part where the
    groundskeeper talks about it?

    "Many people have come hoping

    Taro, get your license already.

[05:04] Goro
    Let's be on our way.
[05:10] Noin
    Do you think they're going after MOParts?
[05:12] Perch
    Hopefully.
[05:14] Noin
    How do you think they know
    where to find them?
[05:17] Noin
    Some power of the Motarian's?

    I wonder how you eat it.
[05:47] Goro

[05:49] Taro
    Are you serious?
[05:51] Goro
    That's standard when it comes
    to camping, isn't it?
[05:54] Taro
    You barbecue with a beer in one hand
     while you're watching sports!
[05:57] Taro
    It's not how you show off your cooking skill!
[06:00] Taro
    If we're camping, we've gotta make curry!
[06:02] Goro
    Does curry... provide that much
    of a chance to show off cooking skill?
[06:06] Taro
    You have no idea!
[06:08] Goro
    I suppose so.
[06:19] Taro
    Those are some weird carrots they have here.
[06:22] Jiro
    Curry's great and all, but
    don't forget the marshmallows!

[07:30] Taro
    and Loch Nuss turning into
    a meeting spot for young couples...
[07:33] Taro
    What's with the article?!
[07:35] Scott
    Oh, that! That was wishful
    thinking on my part.
[07:41] Taro
    So it's fake news?!
[07:42] Scott
    It's not fake. It's hopeful!
[07:44] Goro
    Excuse me...
[07:46] Goro
    Then is Nussie fake—er,
    hopeful thinking, too?
[07:50] Scott
    No. There was a witness
    who said they saw her.
[07:54] Goro
    What a relief!
[07:56] Goro
    We're from a magazine called Monthly Moso
    Science
, and we're here to cover Nussie.
[08:01] Goro
    We'd love to hear all about her.
[08:03] Scott
    Sure, as soon as I wrap up my work.
[08:06] Goro
    We'll set up our tent and be waiting!

    Oh, it's so over-scientific!

    The space pyramid tent
    that gathers cosmic power!

    You actually bought it...?

    Down this goes.
[08:26] Goro
    I bought some additional
    camping implements, too.
[08:29] Goro
    We should have everything we need.
[08:31] Taro
    Man, what a drag...
[08:34] Taro
    All I could find was a dude
    by himself and two families.
[08:37] Taro
    Which means there's no chances
    for me to meet anybody.
[08:40] Goro
    Taro, I'll leave the curry to you!
[08:43] Taro
    You do it.
[08:46] Goro
    What's wrong?
[08:48] Taro
    I've got no one to show off my cooking to.
[08:51] Taro
    I'll see if I can fish up Nussie.
[08:58] Jiro
    How large do you think Nussie is?
[09:00] Goro
    I'd say considerably since she's a dinosaur.
[09:04] Jiro
    I'm gonna look for her too, then!
[09:09] Goro
    Curry, eh?
[09:15] Perch
    It looks like they've started a search.
[09:18] Noin
    It's gotta be for MOParts!
[09:22] Noin
    I hope they find one fast!
[09:37] Taro
    This is getting creepy...
[09:39] Taro
    I really shouldn't have come.
[09:52] Taro
    Hey there.
[09:54] Yasuko
    Are you here to look for Nussie?
[09:57] Taro
    Oh, yeah!
[09:59] Taro
    By the way, are you on your own?
[10:03] Yasuko
    Nussie really does exist.
[10:07] Yasuko
    But no one believes me.
[10:10] Taro
    I could believe you...
[10:12] Yasuko
    Really?! That's great!
[10:19] Jiro
    Nussie of Loch Nuss...
[10:24] Jiro
    I guess it couldn't be that easy.
[10:27] Jiro
    Huh?
[10:32] Jiro
    What's he doing all by himself?
[10:37] Yasuko
    The oldest sightings of Nussie
    date back a thousand years.
[10:43] Yasuko
    And they've been consistent ever since.
[10:46] Taro
    Have you seen her yourself, Yasuko?
[10:48] Yasuko
    Yes, I have.
[10:57] Scott
    That's a fancy tent you've got there.
[10:59] Goro
    If you'd like, you can absorb
    the cosmic power on the inside.
[11:02] Scott
    Nah, I'll pass. I've got enough
    weird stuff going on with Nussie.
[11:08] Goro
    You've seen her yourself, then, groundskeeper?
[11:11] Scott
    I actually haven't.
[11:13] Scott
    Yasuko is the one who did.
[11:17] Goro
    Yasuko?
[11:20] Goro
    And who's that?
[11:22] Scott
    It happened ten years ago...
[11:24] Scott
    Yasuko said she saw a giant
    creature out in the lake.
[11:30] Scott
    And that it was Nussie.
[11:32] Scott
    But nobody believed her.
[11:35] Scott
    So, Yasuko set out on her own
    to try and catch Nussie...
[11:42] (Flashback) Yasuko
    I know Nussie exists.
[11:54] Scott
    The next morning, I found her washed up
    on the edge of the water.
[12:00] (Flashback) Scott
    Yasuko!
[12:05] (Flashback) Yasuko
    I saw... Nussie...
[12:08] (Flashback) Yasuko
    She really does live in Loch Nuss.
[12:16] (Flashback) Yasuko
    Nussie...
[12:22] Yasuko
    She died from the injuries I found her with.
[12:27] Yasuko
    Nobody has seen or heard Nussie ever since.
[12:34] Yasuko
    Your curry's gonna burn.
[12:35] Goro
    Whoa!
[12:38] Scott
    If you folks manage to find Nussie,
    maybe Yasuko can rest in peace.
[12:49] Yasuko
    This way.
[12:49] Yasuko
    Right this way, Taro.
[12:52] Taro
    Where are we going, Yasuko?
[12:58] Jiro
    Where do you think Taro's headed?
[13:08] Taro
    And what are we looking at here?
[13:10] Yasuko
    Look into the water.
[13:12] Taro
    In here?
[13:13] Taro
    I just see rocks...
[13:16] Yasuko
    It's not a rock.
[13:23] Jiro
    What the heck is he doing?
[13:25] Goro
    Jiro!
[13:27] Goro
    What is Taro doing over there?
[13:31] Jiro
    I have no clue.
[13:36] Taro
    Huh? There's something down here...
[13:41] Taro
    What is this thing?
[13:45] Taro
    Yasuko, did you mean this?
[13:46] Yasuko
    That's it!
[13:48] Taro
    But what is it?
[13:50] Yasuko
    Something very important.
[13:52] Yasuko
    With this, you can—
[13:53] Goro
    Taro!
[13:54] Goro
    Is that a MOPart?
[13:58] Taro
    This thing?
[13:59] Goro
    If I can just take a look...
[14:03] Jiro
    Kinda weird for Taro to not
    be made sick by a MOPart.
[14:06] Goro
    Perhaps it's already been purified?
[14:10] Taro
    Hey, Yasuko, is this thing a MOPart?
[14:14] Jiro
    Who are you talking to, Taro?
[14:17] Goro
    Yasuko? But that would be...
[14:19] Noin
    Hey, you dorks!
[14:23] Noin
    Hand the MOPart over!
[14:25] Goro
    It's that duo again!
[14:27] Perch
    Hand it over if you know
    what's good for you.
[14:31] Taro
    This thing is important to Yasuko!
[14:33] Taro
    I'm not letting you clowns touch it!
[14:36] Noin
    Then I'll just have to show you...
[14:39] Noin
    who you're dealing with!
[14:41] Goro
    That's the MOPart from before!
[14:43] Jiro
    Then they really did steal it!
[14:47] Noin
    Transform!
[15:03] Jiro
    He can transform, too?!
[15:07] Noin
    Well? Shocked, aren't you?!
[15:09] Jiro
    And he's actually rational, unlike Taro!
[15:11] Taro
    Don't make it sound like I'm at fault!
[15:14] Noin
    Now, hand the MOPart over!
[15:17] Taro
    Like I told you, this belongs to Yasuko!
[15:22] Taro
    Transform...!
[15:35] Taro
    Hey, how am I supposed to transform?!
[15:37] Taro
    Come on, come on, come on!
[15:39] Jiro
    Goro! We need the MOPart!
[15:41] Goro
    Oh, right!
[15:43] Jiro
    This is how we do it!
[15:48] Goro
    Oh, is that how?
[16:08] Noin
    Bring it!
[16:13] Goro
    A battle between beastmen!
[16:16] Jiro
    I know! I should get some pics!
[16:26] Perch
    Noin!
[16:27] Noin
    This stupid furball...
[16:38] Perch
    Noin!
[16:43] Noin
    Dammit...
[16:47] Jiro
    They're too fast!
[16:51] Jiro
    This is no good.
[16:55] Jiro
    And now I'm out of film! Shoot.
[16:59] Perch
    This is bad... I didn't think the Motarian
    would be stronger than Noin.
[17:03] Goro
    That's it, Taro!
[17:07] Perch
    Noin!
[17:08] Noin
    I... know!
[17:13] Noin
    Don't mess with me!
[17:33] Goro
    He won!
[17:35] Perch
    Got it!
[17:39] Perch
    We're getting out of here, Noin!
[17:41] Goro
    Hold it!
[17:56] Noin
    Back off! Go away!
[17:59] Perch
    Get in!
[18:11] Goro
    They stole another MOPart from us...
[18:19] Jiro
    You put in some good work today,
    which makes it a shame—
[18:36] Goro
    Are you awake, Taro?
[18:36] Taro
    Ow, ow, ow...
[18:38] Taro
    How'd it turn out, anyway?
[18:40] Goro
    I'm afraid they took the MOPart.
[18:43] Taro
    Then I lost...?
[18:46] Goro
    You were winning, but they
    managed to snatch it from me.
[18:50] Goro
    I'm sorry!
[18:51] Taro
    What the heck?
[18:52] Jiro
    You collapsed after running
    out of steam, anyway,
[18:55] Jiro
    so you can't blame him, Taro.
[18:59] Jiro
    "The mysterious beastmen on film!"
[19:01] Jiro
    ...Is not going to be an article we
    can do with these blurry shots.
[19:05] Taro
    This one's me?
[19:06] Jiro
    Yep.
[19:07] Taro
    What about this, then?
[19:09] Jiro
    Huh... what is that?
[19:15] Goro
    I believe it's Nussie!
[19:17] Goro
    Nussie of Loch Nuss!
[19:20] Jiro
    Then Nussie is real!
[19:22] Goro
    This is fantastic! What a scoop!
[19:24] Goro
    I'm sure the chief will be thrilled!
[19:25] Taro
    Seriously...?
[19:28] Jiro
    And so will the sponsor!
[19:30] Goro
    Let's use this to get a closer look...
[19:33] Jiro
    I'm gonna get a credit for the photo!
[19:37] Goro
    What's this...?
[19:39] Scott
    I recognize it...!
[19:41] Scott
    That's Yasuko's harpoon!
[19:46] Taro
    Sorry, Yasuko.
[19:49] Taro
    It was important to you,
    but they got away with it.
[19:51] Yasuko
    It's okay.
[19:53] Yasuko
    Since you were able to find Nussie...
[19:55] Taro
    That really was Nussie, then?
[19:58] Taro
    We're gonna do a whole feature on her
    in next month's Monthly Moso Science.
[20:02] Yasuko
    Thank you, Taro.
[20:09] Taro
    Wait, Yasuko!
[20:11] Yasuko
    Thank you...
[20:14] Taro
    Wait!
[20:16] Taro
    Ow! Ow, ow, ow...
[20:18] Yasuko
    Goodbye!
[20:23] Scott
    He's able to see Yasuko...?
[20:27] Jiro
    It's a condition he has.
[20:29] Goro
    You mean to say that Taro
    has been talking with a ghost?
[20:33] Jiro
    I doubt he even thinks she was one.
[20:37] Taro
    Yasuko!
[20:41] Taro
    She looked like a real go-getter, too...
[20:49] Edward
    This isn't a MOPart.
[20:52] Perch
    It's not?!
[20:54] Edward
    It appears to be a bone
    from some sort of creature.
[20:56] Noin
    A bone...!

    Catherine's always coming and going,

[21:30] Goro
    You're not able to contact her?
[21:31] Jiro
    We don't know a thing about
    her private life, honestly.
[21:41] Edward
    It's still only one MOPart,
[21:44] Edward

[21:48] Edward
    Which will ensure we obtain all the MOParts.

    You realize that urban legends
    about shadowy figures
[02:16] Taro
    going real fast on expressways
    is pretty common, right?
[02:19] Jiro
    We did a story like that a while back.
[02:22] Goro
    But, in this case...
[02:24] Goro
    The mask adds a new wrinkle, don't you think?
[02:27] Taro
    Maybe, but is it that interesting?

[02:46] Taro

[02:48] Goro
    Oh, fine.
[02:51] Goro
    I'll investigate this story myself.
[03:02] Rock
    Welcome.
[03:06] Roberto
    Is this the place where they
    solve "over-scientific incidents"?
[03:11] Taro
    Sure isn't.
[03:14] Jiro
    That's the Nussie special issue...
[03:17] Roberto
    I heard this was the place.
[03:19] Taro
    Probably some kind of urban legend.
[03:22] Jiro
    Aw, come on, let's at least hear him out.
[03:26] Jiro
    It might make for a good story.
[03:28] Rock
    What can I get you?
[03:29] Roberto
    A double espresso. Make it strong.
[03:33] Taro
    A guy like that? His story's
    gonna be a whole thing.
[03:37] Jiro
    Now, now...
[03:38] Rock
    Espresso, huh?
[03:42] Roberto
    I'm Roberto Morricone.
    I'm a figure skating coach.
[03:47] Roberto
    And something strange is going on
    with one of my skaters.
[03:51] Roberto
    We had him in a training camp
    to prepare for a competition...
[03:54] Roberto
    And this young man, Ryoma, would
    disappear in the wee hours of the night
[03:57] Roberto
    before showing up in the morning
    looking worn out.
[04:01] Taro
    I know what that sounds like to me.
    A nighttime rendezvous with a fan.
[04:04] Roberto
    If I thought that was likely,
    I'd call a detective.
[04:08] Roberto
    I've had people watch Ryoma
    to make sure he doesn't leave at night,
[04:11] Roberto
    and locked his room from the outside...
[04:14] Roberto
    But he still manages to vanish.
[04:17] Roberto
    And he's not aware of what's going on.
[04:20] Roberto
    I'm sure there's something going on
    beyond a logical explanation.
[04:25] Rock
    Here you are.
[04:30] Roberto
    This is an espresso?
[04:33] Rock
    It is.
[04:35] Taro
    Vanishing late at night... Maybe
    Dracula's got him entranced.
[04:39] Roberto
    Could you deal with that?
[04:41] Taro
    Uh, no, that's not our line of work.
[04:44] Taro
    Plus, I'm pretty sure it's not Dracula.
[04:46] Roberto
    I still need some help, please!

    One other thing, and I didn't
    actually pull over to check, but...
[05:45] Goro
    What is it?
[05:47] Driver B
    I got the feeling that the road had iced over.
[05:50] Goro
    That would be odd,
    considering the time of year.

    Oh, you're here.
[07:40] Goro
    I'm more surprised that you are, chief.

    so they headed to the skating rink.

    There's a major figure skating
    competition coming up
[08:09] Catherine
    that's going to be held at Komanai Ice Arena.

    Yeah, that's the one!

[08:30] Roberto
    All right, that's enough.
    The open skate is over.
[08:32] Fans
    See you later!
[08:35] Taro
    Your coach said you've been
    heading out late at night...
[08:39] Taro
    Where've you been going?
[08:41] Ryoma
    Nowhere, as far as I know.
[08:43] Goro
    No more observers!
[08:46] Goro
    Excuse me, I'm from Monthly Moso Science...
[08:50] Goro
    I work with them!
[08:53] Jiro
    Then what do you do at night?
[08:56] Ryoma
    I meditate as part of my mental training.
[08:58] Ryoma
    But at some point, I always fall asleep.
[09:02] Goro
    Meditation to improve performance, you say?
[09:04] Jiro
    You showed up, Goro.
[09:06] Goro
    Do you use anything when meditating?
[09:08] Goro
    Like a power stone or breathing exercise?
[09:11] Ryoma
    I use a mask.
[09:12] Goro
    A mask...?
[09:13] Ryoma
    Wanna see?
[09:25] Taro
    Where the hell did that come from?!
[09:27] Ryoma
    I bought it.
[09:32] Ryoma
    Are you...?
[09:33] Jiro
    Happens all the time. Don't sweat it.
[09:36] Goro
    If you could continue your story...
[09:37] Ryoma
    Oh, right.
[09:42] Ryoma
    The performance component of my
    skating always scored poorly.
[09:46] Ryoma
    They say I'm not very expressive.
[09:48] Ryoma
    My coach is always telling me...
[09:50] Ryoma
    "Express yourself!
    Let your emotions flow forth!"
[09:56] Ryoma
    We keep going around in circles on it.
[09:59] Ryoma
    And one day, when I was
    wandering around town in circles...
[10:08] Ryoma
    I found a store that
    sold glassware and masks.
[10:13] Ryoma
    And among them... there was this simple mask.
[10:19] (Flashback) Clerk
    You've got a real eye for quality, sir.
[10:22] (Flashback) Clerk
    This mask seems to have
    a neutral expression at a glance,
[10:25] (Flashback) Clerk
    but depending on the angle, it can show
    a variety of faces! Quite the article!
[10:29] (Flashback) Clerk
    How about it? If you're interested,
    I can sell it to you at a reasonable price.
[10:35] (Flashback) Clerk
    Not only that...
[10:38] (Flashback) Clerk
    But if you buy it now, I'll include
    this "City of Water" glass as a bonus!
[10:42] (Flashback) Clerk
    A set of two, even!
[10:47] Ryoma
    It was a great deal!
[10:51] Ryoma
    I've been using it as a good
    luck charm to get better
[10:56] Ryoma
    at expressing myself through skating.
[11:01] Jiro
    A good luck charm, huh?
[11:02] Ryoma
    Before I go to bed,
    I put it on and meditate.
[11:23] Taro
    I knew it! That mask is cursed!
[11:25] Goro
    Maybe it's a MOPart!
[11:28] Roberto
    Ryoma?
[11:29] Ryoma
    Express!
[11:32] Ryoma
    Meditate!
[11:43] Roberto
    What just happened?!
[11:45] Goro
    How over-scientific!
[11:49] Jiro
    Looks like more paranormal
    phenomena thanks to a MOPart.
[11:52] Goro
    He's Expressway Mask!
[11:55] Roberto
    Do something, please!
[11:56] Goro
    Let's go after him!
[11:59] Taro
    After him, how?
    We don't know where he went.
[12:03] Goro
    He's headed to Expressway 1.

    They must've gotten a lead on a MOPart!
[12:29] Taro
    I don't see him.
[12:31] Goro
    I'm certain he's skating
    somewhere on Expressway 1.
[12:35] Taro
    Why is he going around
    this road in a loop, anyway?
[12:39] Goro
    I'm not sure.
[12:40] Jiro
    He's trying to express himself.
[12:43] Taro
    Say what now?
[12:44] Jiro
    Think about it. Expressing
    himself... on the expressway.
[12:48] Jiro
    He's meditating, unsure of
    what to do, and skating.
[12:50] Taro
    It's a pun?!
[12:59] Goro
    How over-scientific!
[13:02] Goro
    Jiro, there's a camera in there
    with you! It's all yours!
[13:05] Jiro
    What is, exactly?!
[13:07] Goro
    We're getting a scoop on Expressway Mask!
[13:09] Jiro
    We were asked to solve this
    guy's problem, actually...
[13:13] Taro
    If we can rip that mask off him,
    that'll probably fix it, right?
[13:16] Jiro
    Good luck, then, Taro.
[13:18] Taro
    Aw, me?
[13:23] Ryoma
    Expression!
[13:25] Goro

    Maybe you'd be able to catch him
    if you transformed, Taro?
[15:05] Taro
    Am I really that fast?
[15:07] Jiro
    You're pretty fast, but the problem
    is you lose control when you change.
[15:12] Jiro
    I'm not sure you'd remember
    to grab the mask.
[15:16] Taro
    I'll try and force myself to remember.
[15:18] Taro
    Get Expressway Mask's mask...
    get his mask...
[15:22] Taro
    I am gonna get Expressway Mask's mask!
[15:23] Jiro
    Let's give it a shot, then!
[15:46] Goro
    He's headed after Expressway Mask!
[15:48] Jiro
    I just hope he doesn't attack him.
[15:52] Goro
    He caught him!
[15:53] Jiro
    Go for the mask!
[16:10] Perch
    What in the world are they doing?
[16:12] Noin
    Whatever! Time to transform!
[16:14] Noin
    Transform!
[16:29] Jiro
    They're changing, too!
[16:31] Goro
    Here he comes, Taro!
[16:33] Noin
    But how do I do this...?
[16:41] Perch
    We're not here to fight that tiger guy.
[16:44] Perch
    We need the MOPart!
[16:46] Perch
    Let's look for an opening and steal it!
[16:49] Noin
    Yeah!
[16:50] Goro
    What are you doing, Taro?!
[16:52] Jiro
    The mask! Get the mask!
[16:54] Jiro
    Come on! What happened to remembering?!
[17:00] Goro
    One, two, three, four...
[17:03] Goro
    A quintuple spin!
[17:06] Ryoma
    Expression!
[17:15] Everyone
    The MOPart!
[17:25] Noin
    This time, we'll win!
[17:31] Jiro
    Taro! Get the MOPart!
[17:33] Perch
    Noin, pass it to me!
[17:42] Noin
    Dammit...
[17:43] Perch
    Is it even a MOPart, though?
[17:48] Perch
    Transform!
[18:13] Goro
    The other one can transform too?!
    And he's white!
[18:16] Jiro
    Then it is a MOPart!
[18:18] Perch
    Huh? I'm a polar bear...
[18:21] Noin
    Just goes to show that we're twins!
[18:23] Noin
    Now let's put this clown into hibernation!
[18:25] Perch
    Right!
[18:28] Goro
    I believe that was him saying, "Bring it."
[18:30] Jiro
    Is this gonna work out...?
[18:32] Goro
    Let's use the opportunity to collect Ryoma.
[18:37] Twins
    Let's go!
[18:54] Jiro
    Two on one, without his full
    mental capacity... This is bad.
[18:58] Goro
    And I think Taro's transformation
    won't last much longer.
[19:02] Jiro
    Then we're definitely gonna
    need to grab him and run!
[19:06] Perch
    We're invincible!
[19:09] Noin
    Have a taste of Motarian power!
[19:19] Noin
    They're running?!
[19:20] Perch
    I don't think so!
[19:24] Noin
    Someone called the cops...
[19:25] Perch
    We'd better run, too.
[19:37] Roberto
    Ryoma? Ryoma!
[19:39] Roberto
    What in the world happened?!
[19:41] Goro
    Calm down, please, Mr. Roberto.
[19:44] Goro
    The truth is, Ryoma was Expressway Mask!
[19:47] Roberto
    Expressway Mask? What even is that?!
[19:49] Goro
    There's no need to worry.
    We won't reveal his identity in the article.
[19:54] Roberto
    I don't care about that! Is Ryoma okay?
[19:56] Jiro
    Yep. He's okay.
[20:01] Ryoma
    Coach...
[20:02] Roberto
    Ryoma!
[20:03] Ryoma
    Coach, I understand now.
[20:09] Ryoma
    Emotions... and expression!
[20:12] Roberto
    Ryoma...
[20:14] Roberto
    I'm just glad you're all right!
[20:16] Roberto
    I was so worried!
[20:17] Goro
    As impressive as Taro's might be, your
    special ability is really incredible, Jiro!
[20:18] Ryoma
    I'm so sorry. It feels kind of like
    I was dreaming for a long time...
[20:22] Jiro
    Just don't write about it.
[20:24] Goro
    How over-scientific.
[20:30] Edward
    Well done.
[20:32] Perch
    I was able to transform by using it, too.
[20:34] Noin
    We clobbered that tiger Motarian together!
[20:39] Perch
    Why does he lose control like
    that when he transforms?
[20:43] Edward
    He's likely lost his memories
    of being a Motarian.
[20:48] Edward
    He can take his Motarian form
    but lacks his Motarian mind.
[20:53] Perch
    I see...
[20:55] Edward
    Raising the Mo Continent will
    require additional MOParts.
[20:59] Edward
    Continue searching for them.
[21:01] Both
    Right!

    Are you ready...
[00:08] Johnny
    Lily?
[00:09] Lily
    Johnny.
[00:16] Lily
    Nasty!
[00:21] Johnny
    What is this?! More cats?
[00:24] Johnny
    Pipe down!
[00:29] Lily
    I'm leaving.
[00:29] Johnny
    Aw, wait, Lily!
[00:34] Johnny
    Those stupid furballs!
[00:39] Goro
    I see. A sudden cluster of cats?
[00:43] Johnny
    And I'm allergic...
[00:46] Johnny
    Even hearing them mewling
    is enough to get me sneezing.
[00:50] Johnny
    As big of a hit with the ladies as I am,
    it's got me stumped.
[00:54] Jiro
    Who talks about themselves like that?
[00:56] Goro
    So, you'd like us to stop the cats
    from gathering there, I take it?
[01:01] Taro
    Oh, come on, we don't do odd jobs here.
[01:04] Johnny
    But I'd heard this was the place
    to come to get things done.
[01:09] Taro
    Man, where the hell are people hearing that?
[01:12] Taro
    Listen up, we're the staff of a magazine.
    So that's a big old pass.
[01:17] Goro
    But he's come all this way...
[01:20] Jiro
    And I'm kind of curious.
[01:22] Jiro
    What is it that's making cats
    suddenly gather in that spot?
[01:25] Goro
    It's intriguing!
[01:27] Goro
    They do say that cats
    have paranormal abilities.
[01:27] Johnny'
    Here we go.
[01:29] Taro
    I bet Catherine would say,
    "That doesn't sound very Monthly Moso Science."

    She so would.
[01:35] Jiro
    No, she wouldn't.
[01:36] Taro
    Not you, too, Jiro!
[01:38] Goro
    For now, let's at least hear him out—
[01:39] Catherine
    Hello there, Master. Can I get my usual?
[01:42] Rock
    Sure thing.
[01:43] Goro
    Good to see you, Chief!
[01:46] Johnny
    You're the editor-in-chief? It's a pleasure.
[01:51] Catherine
    And who's this?
[01:52] Goro
    He's here with a tip on a story.
[01:54] Jiro
    A bunch of cats keep gathering
     near his place and bothering him.
[01:56] Catherine
    Oh, cats?
[01:58] Catherine
    What kind are they? Tawny? Calico? Tabby?
[02:01] Johnny
    I'm actually allergic, so...
[02:04] Catherine
    Oh, that must be awful.
[02:06] Catherine
    So, any specific breeds? Munchkins?
    Persians? American Shorthairs? Ragdolls?

    Here you go.

    This Is Where the Cats Gather
[04:15] Jiro
    Here we are!
[04:17] Taro
    I don't see any cats.
[04:18] Goro
    Maybe they only gather late at night.
[04:22] Taro
    What is that?
[04:24] Goro
    A scanning device that I poured untold
    hours into during my laboratory tenure!
[04:31] Goro
    I'm not getting any readings, but...
[04:35] Taro
    Why would they even show
    up around here, anyway?
[04:39] Jiro
    Cats generally don't
    operate in groups, yeah.
[04:43] Goro
    I believe in urban areas,
    their territory often overlaps.
[04:47] Taro
    Territory?
[04:49] Goro
    It's why they sometimes communicate,
    in order to convey a lack of antagonism.
[04:53] Jiro
    So it's like... a neighborhood's
    community meetup?
[04:56] Taro
    How is it like that?
[04:57] Goro
    There are assorted theories,
[05:00] Goro
    but since there doesn't appear
    to be traces of food left out...
[05:04] Goro
    It could just be comfortable here for them.
[05:07] Jiro
    Well, we'll have to come back late at night,
    when the cats are supposed to show up.
[05:11] Taro
    I think I'll head home and snooze.
[05:13] Goro
    Or we could investigate another matter!
[05:22] Taro
    Dammit... where does he get the energy?
[05:26] Goro
    You've got it all wrong!
    We're just here to do a story!
[05:31] Goro
    Wait—
[05:35] Goro
    Ow!
[05:37] Jiro
    Th-Thanks.
[05:39] Taro
    That didn't take long.
[05:42] Goro
    Ow, ow, ow... they literally threw us out.
[05:46] Jiro
    That was some airtight security.
[05:50] Jiro
    Huh?
[05:52] Jiro
    Isn't that...?
[05:54] Taro
    Cat allergy Johnny!
[05:56] Goro
    He works as a model for
    the White Pegasus Company?
[06:00] Taro
    Still, I think I've seen him
    somewhere else before...
[06:08] Taro
    For some reason...
[06:12] Taro
    I can't...
[06:13] Goro
    Taro?!
[06:14] Goro
    Are you all right?
[06:16] Jiro
    Wow, knocked out again?
[06:21] Goro
    He's not waking at all.
[06:23] Jiro
    I'm enjoying the quiet.
[06:25] Goro
    What does the White Pegasus Company
    intend to do with their MOParts?
[06:30] Jiro
    World conquest, maybe?
[06:33] Taro
    World conquest... That would fit
    the evil organization template.
[06:37] Jiro
    Er, I was joking?
[06:38] Taro
    If a single business was able to monopolize
    the advanced technology of the Mo Continent,
[06:44] Taro
    it would be incredibly dangerous.
[06:45] Jiro
    But there's nothing else suspicious, right?
    They're a normal company.
[06:49] Goro
    My grandmother, who loved
    suspense stories, once told me...
[06:53] Goro
    It's always the least suspicious-
    looking suspect that's guilty!
[06:57] Jiro
    She did, huh?
[07:07] Johnny
    Shall I strip?
[07:11] Edward
    I see.
[07:16] Edward
    I'm surprised they've
    sought out the company.

    That said, it won't be a problem.

    spot... It's a very feline day.
[08:54] Goro
    That reminds me. We should get going!
[08:56] Taro
    Maybe I shouldn't have said anything...

    Still no cats at all.

    We've got two Motarians.

    If we grab the entire bag...
[09:55] Noin
    Then the MOParts are ours!
[10:00] Taro
    Oh, these beef rolls are tasty!
[10:03] Goro
    You think?
[10:04] Goro
    I put it together trying to ensure
    it was nutritionally balanced.

    So I can cook it up for my
    beloved partner-to-be!
[10:12] Jiro
    And who's that supposed to be?
[10:16] Goro
    I've noticed there don't appear
    to be any cats about.
[10:20] Jiro
    You think it might be
    because we're eating here?
[10:24] Taro
    Hey, then we fixed the problem.
[10:27] Taro
    He just wants us to keep
    the cats away, right?
[10:30] Jiro
    So do you wanna eat out here
    every night from now on?
[10:33] Taro
    Uh, no, actually.
[10:35] Taro
    Why should I bother for that clown, anyway?
[10:38] Taro
    Stupid Johnny!
[10:41] Johnny
    What a party!
[10:44] Perch
    Okay.
[10:45] Noin
    Time to move!
[10:54] Perch
    Where'd this cat come from?!
[10:56] Perch
    You're in the way! Run along!
[11:09] Perch
    Good...
[11:13] Noin
    So heavy! What the hell is in there?!
[11:15] Goro
    Oh, you've got some ketchup
    on your mouth, Taro.

    Hey, don't worry about me. I've got tissues.

    Yeah! Considering we've got
    twice as many Motarians!

    Transform!

    Don't ask me.

    Get him!
[13:21] Goro
    Roger that!
[13:24] Taro
    They got me!

    Y-Yeah.

    Hey! You're heavy, man!

    Get off us, you turd tiger!
[14:55] Goro
    Go on, get them!
[14:59] Perch
    We are not...
[15:01] Noin
    ...going down like this!

    Can't we do something?
[15:11] Goro
    Hang on! I should have some kind of tool...
[15:15] Goro
    My wave-motion converter!
[15:18] Goro
    But not that...
[15:19] Goro
    The miraculous harmonic tuner!
[15:22] Goro
    Won't help here...
[15:23] Goro
    Come on... Come on...
[15:26] Goro
    Where is—
[15:26] Jiro
    You dropped something!
[15:48] Goro
    Catch it, Jiro!
[15:49] Jiro
    Okay!
[16:07] Goro
    Jiro, too?!
[16:09] Perch
    No way!
[16:10] Noin
    They have two Motarians?!
[16:13] Jiro
    Good day to you commoners.
[16:20] Jiro
    You should lower your heads in my presence.
[16:24] Goro
    He spoke! Then his reason is intact?
[16:27] Jiro
    Sebastian, come!
[16:29] Jiro
    Sebastian, where are you?
[16:31] Noin
    Who the hell is Sebastian?
[16:33] Perch
    I dunno.
[16:34] Noin
    And I don't like his attitude!
[16:40] Jiro
    Don't touch me.
[16:47] Jiro
    Ridiculous. I could have chipped a horn.
[16:50] Goro
    You seem... completely different.
[16:53] Perch
    This is bad! We're heading back for today!
[16:57] Goro
    They ran!
[17:01] Jiro
    They should learn some shame.
[17:09] Jiro
    You there. Then you're not Sebastian?
[17:14] Jiro
    No matter!
[17:24] Jiro
    What was I just doing...?
[17:26] Goro
    You don't remember?
[17:30] Jiro
    I sort of do, but sort of don't...
[17:33] Jiro
    It was like I was dreaming.
[17:41] Goro
    The cats are leaving.
[17:43] Jiro
    Wait, wasn't that the boss cat before?
[17:47] Goro
    It was originally quite a cutie!
[17:50] Goro
    But where have I seen him before...?
[17:54] Goro
    Sotetsu!
[18:01] Jiro
    He's hurt.
[18:03] Jiro
    I'll heal you right away.
[18:18] Son
    Thank you so much!
[18:23] Jiro
    I'm glad we found their cat.
[18:27] Jiro
    What is it?
[18:29] Goro
    It's just... you have a pretty different
    personality when you transform.
[18:33] Jiro
    I do?
[18:33] Goro
    Well, I wouldn't worry about it!
[18:39] Jiro
    I wonder how Sotetsu ended up
    with a MOPart in his ear.
[18:44] Goro
    I'd assume...
[18:45] Goro
    Since the MOPart we found
    at the well was broken,
[18:49] Goro
    the other piece must have...
[19:04] Goro
    Which is what led to
    Sotetsu's gangsterfication,
[19:07] Goro
    causing him to gather
    the other cats late at night.
[19:11] Jiro
    Makes sense.
[19:13] Goro
    And now the MOParts have been reunited!
[19:17] Taro
    Ow, ow, ow...
[19:19] Taro
    Aw, man, I've had enough
    of both cats and MOParts.
[19:22] Goro
    It's so strange.
[19:24] Goro
    Taro loses control when
    he transforms, but you don't.
[19:29] Taro
    What are you talking about?
[19:31] Jiro
    I was apparently able to transform.
[19:34] Taro
    What?! You too, Jiro?!
[19:35] Goro
    Wait, this order of events...
    Will I get to transform next?!
[19:41] Goro
    Oh, how over-scientific that would be!
[20:00] Goro
    What is this light?
[20:02] Jiro
    Is it pointing us toward something?
[20:13] Goro
    Coffee beans?
[20:17] Jiro
    Beneath the bag...
    there's something on the floor.
[20:22] Taro
    I've been coming here for a long time,
    but I had no idea about a secret basement.
[20:28] Jiro
    Let's check it out.
[20:39] Goro
    No good. It's locked.
[20:41] Taro
    I've got it.
[20:45] Taro
    I learned stuff like this for the sake
    of my beloved partner-to-be.
[20:50] Goro
    Impressive, Taro!
[20:52] Goro
    When would you even need
     to pick a lock, though?
[20:55] Jiro
    Maybe when his wife kicks him out?
[20:59] Taro
    It's unlocked.
[21:03] Jiro
    It's totally dark.
[21:05] Goro
    Times like this call for a flashlight!
[21:14] Taro
    What is this place?
[21:23] Goro
    These patterns... I've seen them before...
[21:29] Goro
    Could it be?
[21:34] Goro
    That's it! If we gather them all here...
[21:38] Taro
    Something wrong?
[21:41] Jiro
    No, it's... It's nothing.
[21:50] Jiro
    What did I just see?

[02:48] Goro
    Oh... looking more closely,
    these are indentations.
[02:51] Goro
    Let's see.
[02:55] Goro
    There's six!
[03:01] Jiro
    What in the world was that?
[03:04] Goro
    I see! So there are six MOParts in total.
[03:07] Goro
    And we currently have two!
[03:10] Goro
    If we can gather the remaining four...
[03:12] Goro
    Are you listening?
[03:14] JIro
    Huh? Wh-What?
[03:19] Goro
    It's likely that the MOParts
    were originally a single item.
[03:24] Goro
    That would match what I read in the
    writings of the philosopher Peleton.
[03:28] Goro
    "When the scattered pieces of the slate
    are gathered from around the world,
[03:31] Goro
    the path to the golden
    continent will reveal itself."
[03:35] Jiro
    What golden continent?
[03:37] Goro
    I believe it refers to the Mo Continent.
[03:41] Goro
    Perhaps there was
    a large amount of gold there,
[03:45] Goro
    or maybe its advanced technology
    was described as "golden."
[03:50] Goro
    Regardless, once we've gathered
    the remaining MOParts,
[03:54] Goro
    I believe it will give us a lead
    on how to raise the continent of Mo.
[03:58] Goro
    Putting that aside, I should really ask
    the owner about that room—
[04:01] Jiro
    Old Rock's out shopping right now.
[04:04] Jiro
    I managed to ask about it
    before he left, though.
[04:06] Goro
    What did he say?
[04:09] (Flashback) Rock
    No clue what you're talking about.
[04:12] Jiro
    And that was it.
[04:13] Goro
    Oh... I see.
[04:17] Goro
    Come to think of it, where's Taro?
[04:19] Jiro
    Not sure.
[04:21] Johnny
    A matchmaking party, huh?
[04:23] Taro
    Yeah! I was hoping I could get some advice.
[04:28] Johnny
    Well, I'd say it all boils down to looks.
[04:31] Taro
    Looks? Not income?
[04:35] Johnny
    I've got an exclusive contract
    to model for White Pegasus,
[04:39] Johnny
    but between you and me, I'm not
    making squat. They're real cheapskates.
[04:45] Johnny
    And yet...
[04:48] Johnny
    Ladies love me!
[04:54] Johnny
    See what I mean?
[04:55] Taro
    Then it really is all about looks.
[04:57] Taro
    Thanks for the tip, Johnny!
[04:59] Johnny
    Good luck!
[05:00] Taro
    Aw, come on! Why not?!
[05:03] Nancy
    Because you don't meet
    the income requirement, obviously.
[05:08] Taro
    Johnny said looks are
    more important than money!
[05:11] Nancy
    And you're saying that? With how you look?
[05:15] Nancy
    I'm saying you don't meet
    that standard either. Bye now.
[05:20] Taro
    Damn it all! I wanted in on that
    VIP-only matchmaking party!
[05:25] Jiro
    Well, that sucks for you.
[05:27] Goro
    I'd say finding the remaining MOParts
    takes priority over your marriage search!
[05:31] Goro
    After all, you're no longer alone
    now that Jiro can transform, too!
[05:36] Goro
    Once we set our minds to it, it'll be simple!
[05:39] Goro
    And on that note, I'd like you
    to each hold on to one of these.
[05:44] Jiro
    Why?
[05:45] Goro
    So you'll be able to transform
    should the need arise!
[05:47] Taro
    I don't wanna transform! I wanna fill out
    a form! A marriage license, namely!
[05:51] Goro
    Stop that!
[05:52] Goro
    You should have it on you! Here,
    let me just put it in your pocket...
[05:56] Taro
    Don't wanna!
[05:57] Goro
    Stop struggling!
[05:57] Taro
    This junk takes up
    more space than you'd think!
[05:59] Goro
    Coming!
[06:01] Jiro
    Well, mine can go in here.
[06:02] Taro
    What a pain.
[06:03] Goro
    Yes, this is Rock's Cafe.
[06:06] Goro
    Oh, right. I've heard all about you.
[06:12] Goro
    Just one moment.
    It's Nancy from Moment Marriage!
[06:17] Taro
    How's she want to insult me now?
[06:21] Taro
    Yeah, I'm here.
[06:25] Taro
    Wait, seriously?!
[06:27] Taro
    You bet! How could I say no?!
[06:29] Taro
    What?!
[06:31] Taro
    Oh. Okay, got it.
[06:34] Goro
    What happened?
[06:37] Taro
    She says I can go to the VIP party now!
[06:40] Jiro
    Wait, why?
[06:41] Taro
    And you have to come too, Goro.
[06:44] Goro
    I do?!
[06:46] Goro
    But I'm not at all looking to get married!
[06:51] Taro
    Turns out the party's sponsor
[06:53] Taro
    is real interested in having the author of
    the "Nussie from Loch Nuss" article as a guest.
[06:59] Goro
    What an opulent vessel!
[07:01] Taro
    Right?! Perfect for meeting someone special!
SIGN    Mr. Taro J. Suzuki and Mr. Goro Sato, yes?
[07:07] Both
    Yes!
[07:16] Goro
    Should I really be here...?
[07:19] Taro
    It's fine! You never know
    when you're gonna fall in love.
[07:23] Goro
    What's this "2-S time" on the schedule?
[07:27] Taro
    It's two-shot time.
[07:29] Taro
    The time set aside for one-on-one romancing.
[07:34] Perch
    Wait... he doesn't have his bag on him!
[07:37] Noin
    What?!
[07:39] Taro
    Man, these people really
    are very important-looking!
[07:42] Goro
    More importantly, Taro, you do have
    the you-know-what on you, yes?
[07:46] Taro
    Yeah...
[07:47] Taro
    This, right?
[07:49] Both
    There it is!
[07:51] Perch
    We've confirmed it, sir.
[07:53] Edward
    I see.
[07:56] Edward
    Understood.
[08:01] Taro
    "Hobbies: Over-scientific.
    Special Skills: Over-scientific.
[08:06] Taro
    What I'm looking for in a relationship:
    Someone to be over-scientific with"?
[08:10] Taro
    What is wrong with you?
[08:12] Edward
    I've never seen you two around before.
[08:15] Taro
    Yeah, we're new!
[08:18] Edward
    Would you like some advice?
[08:20] Taro
    Would you mind?
[08:22] Edward
    Well, at the start of the party, there's
    going to be time for making introductions.
[08:26] Taro
    Introduction time...
[08:29] Edward
    Each person will only have a brief moment,
[08:32] Edward
    so it's important to make a good impression.
[08:35] Taro
    Make a good impression... Any specifics?
[08:38] Edward
    Smile. Choose your words carefully. And...
[08:40] Edward
    Be mindful of eye contact.
[08:43] Taro
    I get you! You cach all that, Goro?
[08:46] Goro
    Uh, y-yes, sure.
[08:48] Edward
    Also, I recommend questions that
    can't be answered with a yes or no,
[08:52] Edward
    to maintain conversational momentum.
[08:56] Taro
    So, avoid yes or no questions...
[08:59] Edward
    An example would be,
    "How do you spend your days off?"
[09:03] Taro
    Makes sense! Write all this down, Goro!
[09:06] Goro
    Oh, s-sure.
[09:07] Noin
    The boss is really having a lot of trouble.
[09:10] Perch
    Why'd he think he could pickpocket
    people? He grew up with money.
[09:13] Goro
    You certainly seem well-informed...
[09:16] Edward
    I'm actually something of a veteran.
[09:18] Edward
    This is my fiftieth time attending
    one of these matchmaking parties...
[09:21] Taro
    Fiftieth?!
[09:22] Goro
    Remarkable.
[09:23] Taro
    You're like some kinda matchmaking legend!
[09:26] Jiro
    Doesn't that mean he never
    gets into a relationship?
[09:33] Nancy
    Ladies and gentlemen,
[09:34] Nancy
    I'd like to thank you for joining our
    VIP-only matchmaking cruise tonight!
SIGN    Matchmaking
    Party In Progress
[09:40] Nancy
    Our first segment tonight will be
    a fast-paced merry-go-round of introductions!
[09:48] Nancy
    You'll get three minutes per person.
[09:51] Nancy
    Ready and... go!
[09:55] Taro
    It's a pleasure.
[09:57] Woman 1
    H-Hi...
[09:59] Taro
    You can leave all the housework to me!
[10:01] Taro
    I will dedicate everything
    to supporting you and your career!
[10:04] Woman 1
    But what do you do for a living?
[10:07] Taro
    I'm in publishing! I intend to quit
    once I get married, though.
[10:12] Woman 1
    I see.
[10:14] Taro
    I'm actually an editor for a magazine.
    It's called Monthly Moso Science...
[10:18] Taro
    I guess you could say we take a scientific
    approach to all kinds of paranormal stuff?
[10:22] Taro
    I work on a magazine called
    Monthly Moso Science
[10:26] Taro
    Our last issue sold out, actually!
[10:29] Taro
    It was a special feature on Nussie!
[10:32] Taro
    I'm actually an astronaut!
[10:34] Woman 6
    Wow!
[10:36] Taro
    I'm the world bantamweight champion!
[10:38] Woman 7
    Really?!
[10:40] Taro
    I'm a hero!
[10:41] Taro
    I'm an oil baron.
[10:43] Noin
    That dude is lying through his teeth.
[10:45] Perch
    Does he not realize they'll find out?
[10:47] Goro
    W-Well... I was a researcher
    at Science Laboratory previously.
[10:54] Woman 8
    Wow! And what do you do now?
[10:56] Goro
    Right now... I've been using that experience
    to help with my job in publishing
[10:59] Goro
    as I continue independent research...
[11:02] Woman 8
    It's amazing how dedicated
    you are to research!
[11:04] Woman 8
    So, what do you do on your days off?
[11:07] Woman 8
    Any hobbies? What's your annual income?
[11:11] Nancy
    And now it's time to
     check your first impressions!
[11:14] Nancy
    I'd like you to write a message card for
    whoever gave you the best first impression!
[11:19] Nancy
    Our staff will then give that card
    to the person in question!
[11:21] Goro
    Taro, I'm really not comfortable with this.
[11:23] Nancy
    Make sure it's a memorable message!
[11:23] Taro
    Let's see... Which was it...?
[11:27] Goro
    Is something wrong?
[11:28] Taro
    Just... trying to remember which
    job I said I had, and to who.
[11:32] Goro
    Were you lying?!
[11:34] Taro
    What do you want from me? You should've
    seen the looks I got when I was honest.
[11:38] Goro
    That's no excuse...
[11:41] Taro
    I know...
[11:42] Taro
    Man, what am I gonna do?
[11:45] Edward
    It'll be all right!
[11:46] Edward
    It's less what job you have,
[11:48] Edward
    and more what kind of life you live,
    as well as what your values are!
[11:53] Edward
    I'm certain there's a lovely woman who
    you're destined to be with here tonight, Taro!
[11:59] Taro
    You really are a legend!
    You know just what to say!
[12:01] Edward
    Just have some faith and
    write out your message card!
[12:04] Taro
    Got it!
[12:08] Noin
    The boss signaled us for Phase 2 of the plan!
[12:11] Perch
    Okay. It's on you now, Anri.
[12:14] Anri
    Of course. Leave it to me.
[12:20] Goro
    I never did finish my message card...
[12:24] Taro
    Yeah. I mean, how can you
    pick just one person?
[12:28] Staff
    I have something for you.
[12:32] Edward
    Thank you.
[12:34] Goro
    I got one?!
[12:36] Taro
    What about me? Any for me?
[12:38] Staff
    Pardon me.
[12:41] Taro
    Wait, what about mine?
[12:48] Taro
    Why only me...?
[12:49] Jiro
    Maybe it's obvious how desperate you are.
[12:52] Taro
    What...?
[12:56] Taro
    Why are you even here?
[12:58] Jiro
    It's not just me. Check it out.
[13:03] Taro
    Great. Even Saburo has a girl.
[13:07] Taro
    A dog's got me beat.
[13:10] Anri
    Excuse me...
[13:11] Anri
    Do you have a minute?
[13:14] Taro
    Who? Me?
[13:16] Anri
    Of course.
[13:20] Taro
    Y-Yes! Certainly!
[13:22] Anri
    Let's step outside, then.
[13:24] Taro
    Of course. Shall we?
[13:34] Anri
    The breeze feels so nice...
[13:36] Anri
    I had wanted to get some fresh air.
[13:40] Anri
    And spend some time with you.
[13:42] Taro
    J-Just the two of us?!
[13:45] Taro
    Uh, I didn't see you around earlier...
[13:48] Anri
    Well, I had my heart
    set on you to begin with.
[13:51] Anri
    So I sat out the introduction time.
[13:56] Anri
    I'm actually the one who asked
    that you be invited.
[14:03] Anri
    I was touched by that article about Nussie
    from Loch Nuss two months ago!
[14:07] Taro
    You know what kind of
    job I have, but still...?
[14:11] Anri
    Of course.
[14:12] Anri
    I care more about what kind of life you live,
    and what your values are, than your job.
[14:22] Anri
    I'm sure you've had a lot
    of interesting experiences.
[14:25] Taro
    Y-Yeah! I guess...
[14:28] Anri
    Do you have any strange mementos?
[14:32] Anri
    A mysterious stone, maybe?
[14:35] Taro
    O-Oh yeah! Actually...
[14:38] Taro
    Wait, not this. This one, I mean.
[14:42] Anri
    Wow!
[14:45] Taro
    It's honestly not that interesting, though.
[14:48] Taro
    I know...
[14:49] Taro
    Get a load of this!
[14:51] Taro
    It was a fortune I got.
[14:53] Taro
    I'm positive this heart is
    what led us to each other!
[14:57] Taro
    Oh, it's so over-scientific!
[15:00] Anri
    Would it be okay if I got
    a better look at the other thing?
[15:03] Taro
    Oh, this?
[15:05] Anri
    Not that!
[15:08] Anri
    Oh, forgive me!
[15:10] Anri
    I just get so excited over gemstones...
    I lost my composure!
[15:15] Taro
    Look, I'm glad that you're
    interested in my job...
[15:19] Taro
    But I actually intend on quitting
    once I get married.
[15:23] Anri
    Oh, that is just so perfect!
[15:26] Anri
    I had always intended on continuing
    to work once I got married,
[15:30] Anri
    and was looking for a partner
    who would support me!
[15:33] Taro
    Really?!
[15:36] Taro
    What kind of work do you do?!
[15:37] Anri
    I'm a singer! With a side of modeling.
[15:40] Taro
    You can rest assured! I will dedicate
    everything I have to supporting you!
[15:46] Jiro
    Does he even have anything
    to dedicate? Sheesh.
[15:50] Jiro
    And where have I seen her before?
[15:55] Nancy
    And that concludes our free time!
[16:00] Nancy
    Now it's time for a break.
[16:02] Nancy
    We'll be doing a second round
    of message cards next...
[16:04] Goro
    This is extremely exhausting
    for some reason.
[16:05] Nancy
    This will be your final chance!
[16:08] Taro
    At long last, it's time
    I say goodbye to this grind!
[16:11] Taro
    As I sail off on the journey
    known as marriage!
[16:16] Goro
    I see.
[16:18] Goro
    I'm thinking of excusing myself.
[16:21] Taro
    Come on, man, that'd be rude
    to the ladies in attendance.
[16:24] Taro
    You've gotta have an even
    number on both sides.
[16:26] Jiro
    There were more guys all along, so it's fine.
[16:31] Goro
    Jiro?!
[16:32] Taro
    Whoa, you're still down there?
[16:35] JIro
    We're on a boat. Where am I gonna go?
[16:38] Edward
    Hello, gentlemen. How's it going?
[16:41] Taro
    Your advice helped me seal the deal!
[16:43] Edward
    I'm glad to hear it.
[16:45] Edward
    I think things are shaping up
    nicely for me, as well.
[16:47] Edward
    Perhaps if we both end up in couples,
    we could go on a double date.
[16:52] Taro
    A double date with the legend?!
    I'd be honored!
[17:00] Jiro
    The final matching time is about to start.
[17:03] Goro
    I'm feeling a bit guilty, to be honest.
[17:05] Goro
    Everyone's so serious
    about getting married...
[17:08] Goro
    I really shouldn't have
    joined in the first place.
[17:12] Jiro
    I mean, considering you don't
    care about marriage, yeah.
[17:14] Goro
    I know. I really am sorry...
[17:21] Goro
    I have to say, though...
[17:24] Goro
    The legend of the matchmaking party...
[17:27] Goro
    I can't shake the feeling that
    I recognize him from somewhere.
[17:30] Jiro
    I know what you mean!
[17:32] Jiro
    That Anri lady...
    I think I've seen her before.
[17:46] Nancy
    It's confession time!
[17:51] Taro
    It's from Anri!
[17:53] Taro
    Now I can get married and quit,
    like I've always dreamed of!
[17:56] Edward
    It seems we're just about
    guaranteed to find someone.
[18:00] Edward
    Taro, let's make sure to arrange
    for that double date.
[18:03] Taro
    Yeah! Of course!
[18:06] Goro
    I just remembered! It's him!
[18:09] Goro
    The president of the White
    Pegasus Company, Edward Chi!
[18:13] Jiro
    Right! And the woman!
[18:15] Jiro
    She was in that poster
    they had at White Pegasus!
[18:19] Goro
    Why would their president
    be attending this party?
[18:24] Both
    It's a trap!
[18:31] Goro
    It won't open!
[18:32] Jiro
    What do we do?!
[18:33] Goro
    Taro! It's a trap!
[18:35] Jiro
    Taro! You gotta notice, Taro!
[18:39] Nancy
    Congratulations! We have our couples!
[18:43] Nancy
    And now, for number five...
[18:46] Taro
    I'm finally next.
[18:48] Taro
    I get to leave the rat race
    and become a househusband!
[18:53] Taro
    It's been quite the journey.
[18:55] Taro
    So much has happened...
[18:58] Taro
    Unbelievable stuff.
[19:00] Taro
    Looking back now... the time
    I spent with those guys...
[19:06] Taro
    It was actually kinda fun.
[19:09] Taro
    Wait, what am I crying for?
[19:14] Taro
    My dream's about to come true...
[19:18] Taro
    I guess these might be the marriage blues?
[19:26] Goro
    It's no good! You'd need inhuman strength!
[19:29] Jiro
    Inhuman... That's it!
[19:32] Goro
    Do you mean—
[19:47] Nancy
    And now, number six, step forward!
[19:54] Taro
    Well... um... I've... uh...
[20:04] Jiro
    Belay that confession.
[20:14] Nancy
    And... you are?
[20:16] Jiro
    It should be obvious, you miscreant!
[20:23] Jiro
    Come along, you lowborn worm.
[20:32] Taro
    Wh-Whoa!
[20:33] Jiro
    I bid you all good night.
[20:40] BG Woman
    What the hell was that?!
[20:45] Goro
    And that concludes our special
    "Wouldn't that be wild?!" sketch!
[20:53] Taro
    Damn it all...
[20:55] Taro
    My shot at marriage is ruined,
    thanks to a certain someone.
[20:59] Jiro
    I don't really remember, so...
[21:03] Taro
    To be honest... I had a case of
    the marriage blues for a while there.
[21:09] Taro
    I think maybe I like working
    here more than I realized.
[21:14] Goro
    Well, this means we can all keep working
    together like before! Isn't that great?
[21:20] Goro
    Oh, it's so over-scientific!
[21:24] Jiro
    Hey, listen. When I was
    carrying you away, Taro...
[21:29] Taro
    Wait, you mean you do remember?
[21:31] Jiro
    It's more like I remembered just now.
[21:34] Goro
    Remembered what?
[21:36] Jiro
    About the Continent of Mo.
[21:43] Edward
    This was within my expectations.
[21:46] Edward
    And now... I'll have to
    enlist their aid in my plan.

    What is your position within the

[00:10] Noin
    We're in charge of looking for MOParts...
[00:14] Edward
    But you have an official title, as normal

[00:26] Noin
    Yeah, what he said.
[00:28] Edward
    I'd like you to perform a task
    more aligned with that title.
[00:31] Edward
    We're going to be holding a dog show.
[00:34] Noin
    A dog show, sir?
[00:37] Edward
    It seems the staff of Monthly Moso
    Science
has a dog of their own,
[00:42] Edward
    so we'll be using the show
     as bait to lure them
[00:44] Edward
    to a specially prepared venue

    Then we're setting a trap.

    Once we've got their MOParts,
[00:52] Edward
    it will only be a matter of time
    until the Continent of Mo rises again.
[00:56] Perch
    Boss, when the Mo Continent
    is back, well... will we...
[01:02] Edward
    Of course. Half the continent
    will be yours, as I promised.

    There's something about that one that
    goes beyond "cuteness" and into "alien."

    Get 'em, Saburo! Go, go, go!
[11:28] Atsumi
    And after running comes swimming!
    Another well-known dog activity!

    The leading group is diving in!
[11:34] Atsumi
    Idol is in first place,
    and dog-paddling her way along!

    But we've got someone cutting
    through the water behind her!

    A dog, somehow doing a butterfly stroke!
[11:44] Atsumi
    And here's a dog who's managed a front crawl!

    It looks like these two are
    battling it out for first place!
[11:51] Atsumi
    No, we've got another moving up the ranks!
[11:56] Atsumi
    This dog seems to have mastered
    ancient Japanese martial swimming!

    Go, go, Saburo! Take 'em down,
    take 'em down, Saburo!

    Bludo!

    And after the swim, the dogs will be
    encountering this obstacle course!

    What better way to test their agility?!

    The leading quartet has put a lot of
    distance between them and the others,

    with a four-way battle for the lead!
[12:22] Trio
    Saburo!
[12:24] Owner 2
    Get 'em, Bludo!
[12:32] Atsumi
    Bludo, currently in the lead,
    takes to the dance stage!
[12:35] Atsumi
    Now, let's see his moves!
[12:37] Atsumi
    Start the music!
[12:53] Owner 2
    Bludo...
[12:55] Atsumi
    Next is our second place contestant...
[13:03] Atsumi
    Now look at that! Magnificent!
[13:09] Taro
    Yeah!
[13:11] Jiro
    I didn't know he could do that.
[13:30] Atsumi
    Next up is the dog maze!
[13:31] Atsumi
    Will these pups have the wits
    to make their way to the exit?
[13:38] Owner 1
    Idol, go back!
[13:41] Owner 2
    Straight on through, Bludo!
[13:42] Owner 3
    Not that way, Prince!
[13:44] Taro
    Saburo, take the turn!
[13:46] JIro
    No, your right! On the right!
[13:49] Noin
    It's no good. We can't get to the MOParts.
[13:52] Perch
    We'll just have to draw them
    onto the stage, then.
[13:55] Noin
    Push comes to shove, we'll use
    the special judge's award.
[13:58] Atsumi
    And which pupper will be
    the first to exit the maze?
[14:02] Atsumi
    It looks like Saburo is
    the first to find his way out!
[14:07] Atsumi
    And in second is Bludo!
[14:11] Atsumi
    These two will be our competitors
    for the final round!
[14:15] Atsumi
    And the final competition is... dog sumo!
[14:19] Jiro
    Sumo... as the final stage of a dog show?
[14:25] Owner 2
    We've got this.
[14:36] Perch
    Entering from the east... Saburo!
[14:43] Perch
    Entering from the west... Bludo!
[14:49] Noin
    Time to begin.
[14:50] Noin
    Ready? And start!
[15:00] Atsumi
    This dog somehow used the neko-damashi
    technique! Saburo wins by ring-out!
[15:05] Owner 2
    Say what?!
[15:06] Taro
    Yeah, he won!
[15:08] Jiro
    You did it, Saburo!
[15:12] Atsumi
    If Saburo's owner could
    please join us on the stage.
[15:17] Atsumi
    All other contestants,
    please collect your participation prizes
[15:20] Atsumi
    on your way out of the arena.
[15:22] Atsumi
    Thank you for joining us today!
[15:31] Jiro
    Not yet!
[15:32] Taro
    How much do you think the prize will be?
[15:34] Jiro
    This place is looking kinda sparse
    for the awards ceremony.
[15:36] Goro
    The MC, Atsumi, is gone too.
[15:42] Goro
    Oh, it's Shiro and Kuro! You two
    will be presenting the prize, then?
[15:53] Jiro
    What the heck is this?
[15:59] Perch
    You're not escaping this venue now!
[16:01] Noin
    Now be good and hand over your MOParts!
[16:04] Taro
    Aw, it's you guys! This was all a trap?!
[16:07] Jiro
    They really pulled out all the stops.
[16:09] Jiro
    Saburo!
[16:11] Perch
    What's with the dog?
[16:12] Noin
    Does it actually want the trophy?
[16:15] Noin
    You can have the damn thing!
[16:40] Trio
    S-Saburo turned human?!
[16:43] Saburo
    I'm a bard from the Mo Continent.
    And this is my harp.
[16:49] Noin
    He's a Motarian too?!
[16:51] Jiro
    The pinching doesn't hurt! Am I dreaming?!
[16:53] Taro
    It hurts me plenty!
[16:55] Goro
    He said he was a bard!
[16:59] Goro
    And now we have three Motarians to your two!
[17:02] Goro
    Give up, and set us free!
[17:30] Noin
    You shouldn't think this
    is gonna go like it did before.
[17:33] Perch
    We've been working under a martial arts
    teacher to undergo harsh training!
[17:38] Noin
    Seriously harsh, man.
[17:40] Perch
    It sucked.
[17:44] (Flashback) Noin
    Gonna fall! Gonna fall!
[17:46] (Flashback) Master
    You must clear your mind!
[17:48] (Flashback) Perch
    Hot! Hot hot hot!
[17:51] (Flashback) Master
    You must empty your thoughts!
[17:54] Noin
    And with the special move we've learned,
    we're gonna beat you guys!
[17:57] Noin
    We call it...
[17:59] Noin
    Cross Over X!
[17:59] Perch
    Super Contemporary!
[18:02] Noin
    I thought it was Cross Over X?
[18:04] Perch
    Come on, we were gonna
    call it Super Contemporary.
[18:07] Noin
    But we can't use our special move
    unless our minds are in sync!
[18:11] Perch
    Which is why you need to
    contemporaneously match me!
[18:13] Noin
    No! Cross over with me!
[18:17] Saburo
    I suppose I should bless you all
    with my singing.
[18:21] Goro
    If he's a bard, perhaps he'll raise
    our stats with his singing or heal us!
[18:28] Twins
    What?!
[18:29] Saburo
    Mo, Mo, Mo...
[18:33] Saburo

[18:34] Goro
    That's a staple of fantasy role-playing!

[19:19] Saburo
    Ra Mo, Ra Mo!
[19:20] Noin
    This is bad!
[19:21] Perch
    I guess we'll back off today, and
    try to sort out our special move!
[19:23] Saburo
    Lalala Mo!
[19:28] Noin
    You guys got lucky this time!
[19:31] Perch
    But next time you're in for a beating!
[19:34] Goro
    Aw, just when it was about to get good!
[19:38] Jiro
    I do not feel as if I am any more powerful.
[19:41] Jiro
    What sort of power does your song hold?
[19:46] Saburo
    This isn't a video game.
    That's not how bards work.
[19:50] Saburo
    We simply pass down a record
    of history through song.
[19:55] Saburo
    Mo, Mo, Mo!
[19:58] Saburo
    Mo Sera Sera, Moala, Moana!
[20:01] Saburo
    Ra Mo, Ra Mo!
[20:05] Saburo
    Lalala Mo!
[20:05] Jiro
    I remember now... I was... I was...
[20:12] Jiro
    The prince of the Mo Continent!
[20:16] Goro
    A prince?!
[20:18] Saburo
    Well, I'm glad to see you've
    remembered, Your Highness.
[20:21] Goro
    Then Saburo... do you know anything else?
[20:25] Saburo
    I do. That's why I've been
    advising you all along.
[20:29] Saburo
    Granted, as a commoner, I wasn't privy
    to what happened in the palace...
[20:38] Jiro
    Oh, so that's why he was howling
    so obnoxiously every now and then.
[20:48] Edward
    The best laid plans...
[20:51] Edward
    have come to nothing
    because of their failings.
[20:55] Edward
    You have my most sincere apologies.
[20:57] Edward
    Everything's going according
    to plan? Really?
[21:05] Goro
    I see. I don't know how I failed
    to notice this before...
[21:09] Goro
    The MOParts don't allow you to transform,
[21:12] Goro
    but rather, because you're Motarians,
    they allow you to take your original forms!
[21:16] Taro
    So, what did you remember, prince?
[21:19] Jiro
    The Continent of Mo sank
     into the sea that day...
[21:23] Jiro
    Because of the civil war that
     split the kingdom in two...
[21:27] Jiro
    Nothing more specific than that yet.
[21:31] Taro
    And he didn't seem to know any
    of the important details.
[21:36] Jiro
    I wonder what's happened
    to the Mo Continent since then.
[21:39] Goro
    About that...
[21:42] Goro
    Fourteen years ago, there was a paper
    published on the Mo Continent.
[21:47] Goro
    And it was written by...
[21:49] Goro
    Four Tune. She was
     fifteen years old at the time.

    Excuse me.

    Looking at cells.
[03:24] Edward
    Cells?
[03:25] Four
    From a tiger.
[03:26] Edward
    A tiger? Why?
[03:28] Four
    I was curious if they could grow gigantic.
[03:31] Edward
    Could tigers actually get that big?
[03:34] Four
    They used to. More specifically,
    a subspecies of tiger.
[03:37] Four
    Or maybe a life-form that
    only resembled tigers.
[03:41] Four
    Hand me that.
[03:46] Edward
    What is this subspecies,
    or the similar but different creature?
[03:50] Edward
    You're asking a lot of questions.
[03:52] Edward
    Are you interested?
[03:53] Edward
    Well, it's just... I like animals.
     So I was curious.
[03:59] Four
    I like them, too.
[04:01] Four
    But who are you, anyway?
[04:03] Edward
    Oh, I'm Edward Chi.
[04:06] Edward
    I'm starting my new job as
    a special researcher in the lab today.
[04:10] Edward
    I was told to wait in here.
[04:13] Four
    Then that makes you my assistant.
[04:19] Four
    My name is Four Tune. I'm a special
    researcher for Science Laboratories.
[04:23] Edward
    Y-You are?!
[04:25] Four
    I noticed you didn't treat me like a child.
[04:30] Four
    I like that.
[04:32] Edward
    I-I see. Well, it's a pleasure.

[05:05] Edward
    Excuse me—
[05:08] Four
    You must come from a fancy home.
[05:12] Four
    We'll be dissecting a water buffalo tomorrow.
[05:18] Edward
    But you come from a sophisticated
    background too, right?
[05:23] Four
    What makes you think that?
[05:25] Edward
    The Tune family is in a class of their own
    in terms of wealth. With a long lineage.
[05:29] Four
    And that's why I'm here.
[05:32] Four
    Because a prim and proper family like that
    doesn't need a weirdo like me.
[05:37] Edward
    That's...
[05:38] Four
    Hand me the file from that shelf,
    and open it to page 10.
[05:49] Edward
    What is all this?
[05:51] Four
    I spilled hot cocoa.
[05:58] Four
    I can be pretty clumsy
    when I get focused on my work...
[06:02] Four
    Granted, my handwriting is so bad,
    I can't always read it either way.
[06:07] Four
    But I'm writing things down just in case.
    I remember most of it, so it's fine.
[06:19] Edward
    I wonder how long she intends on staying...
[06:23] Edward
    Y'know, they're going to be locking up soon.
[06:26] Four
    Is it that late already?
[06:28] Four
    Have a good night, then.
[06:30] Edward
    You're not going home?
[06:32] Four
    I'd just have to come back
    if I did. Too much work.
[06:36] Edward
    Have you been... sleeping in here?
[06:45] Four
    It's fine. I have pajamas to change into.
[06:48] Edward
    But that's... You're still so—
[06:53] Four
    The guards are around, so I'm not scared.
[06:55] Four
    Bye-bye. See you tomorrow.
[07:18] Edward
    Good morning.

    Care for a drink?
[07:23] Four
    Wow. Thank you!

    You're so weird, Ed.
[07:35] Edward
    Coming from you, that's a bit much...
[07:38] Four

    I wasn't.

    but this part is almost
    like another language.

    Four Tune?
[11:28] Four
    I see. It was written backwards.
[11:31] Four
    Why is only this part backwards?!
[11:33] Four
    That has to imply some level of
    importance and secrecy, right?
[11:37] Four
    It has to!
[12:12] Four
    If the ancient texts are right,
    it should be down here...
[12:26] Four
    Oh, no. I should have
    expected something like this.

    I'm here to inform you all that
    I have now confirmed this theory.
[16:12] Four
    The land of a long-lost advanced civilization,
[16:15] Four
    the continent of Mo, did exist!
[16:37] Edward
    She lives in a place like this...?
[16:43] Edward
    Four Tune? Are you there?
[16:45] Edward
    Please open up if you are.
[16:47] Four
    Go away.
[16:49] Edward
    You quit the lab so suddenly.
    I've been worried.
[16:53] Four
    Go away.
[16:55] Edward
    What's become of your Mo Continent research?
[16:59] Four
    The chairman said I won't
    get any more support for it.
[17:04] Four
    Go away.
[17:06] Edward
    I'll be back.
[17:12] Edward
    Four Tune?
[17:13] Four
    You actually came? Go away.
[17:15] Edward
    Have you eaten?
[17:17] Edward
    I made some sandwiches.
[17:20] Edward
    Help yourself, if you'd like.
[17:22] Edward
    I'm going to leave them out here.
[17:45] Edward
    Four Tune! I made rice balls today.
[17:51] Edward
    Four Tune, today is pancakes.
[17:56] Edward
    Your research on the Mo Continent...
    you're continuing it, right?
[18:03] Edward
    If there's anything I can do,
    just let me know.
[18:09] Edward
    I'll be back.
[18:12] Four
    Why?
[18:14] Four
    Why are you being so nice to me?
[18:18] Edward
    When I first met you, you said you liked me
    because I didn't treat you like a child.
[18:26] Four
    Did that happen...?
[18:29] Edward
    But I did treat you like a child back then.
[18:32] Edward
    I might even be doing that right now.
[18:34] Edward
    And that's been bothering me all along.
[18:39] Edward
    I don't know... I feel like I need
    to make up for it.
[18:48] Four
    You're so dumb, Ed.
[19:07] Edward
    I paid your utilities off.
[19:13] Edward
    Four Tune?
[19:15] Four
    Ed...
[19:16] Edward
    What is it?
[19:20] Four
    Watch this.
[19:32] Edward
    Remarkable...
[19:34] Edward
    This is incredible! You look gorgeous!
[19:38] Edward
    I'm sure academia will lose its mind
    when you show them this!
[19:42] Four
    No. It's not enough.
[19:45] Four
    I need more conclusive proof.
[19:48] Edward
    Such as?
[19:50] Four
    The resurfaced Mo Continent.
[19:53] Edward
    You intend to raise it...?
[19:55] Four
    I'll need to do a lot of work to
    make it happen. And I'll need money.
[20:01] Edward
    I have a plan for that, actually.
[20:08] Edward
    I've started a company.
[20:09] Edward
    It's still small, for now,
[20:12] Edward
    but in the future, I intend
    to be involved in a variety of businesses
[20:15] Edward
    in order to help your research.
[20:17] Four
    This is amazing...
[20:19] Edward
    I also intend on looking
    for people like you.
[20:21] Four
    What do you mean?
[20:23] Edward
    Well, I believe there are other people
    out there with the memories of beast people.
[20:30] Edward
    The more you gather, the more
    irrefutable your proof will be.
[20:34] Four
    I see...
[20:36] Four
    The things Ed did after that were incredible.
[20:39] Four
    He expanded his business
    in the blink of an eye,
[20:42] Four
    and he really did find other people
    with Motarian marks, like me.

    I appreciate Ed's help, but I can't
    rely on him for everything.
[21:11] Four
    I'll need to do what I can on my own, too.

[03:50] Jiro
    I'm the prince of the Mo Continent...
[04:01] Goro
    Then, Chief, you were...?
[04:03] Catherine
    I was. The entire reason
    I started Monthly Moso Science
[04:07] Catherine
    was to learn the truth of the Mo Continent.
[04:10] Catherine
    I hired you to work in editorial because
    I found out you were studying it.
[04:15] Catherine
    Your papers on the subject
    were quite an interesting read.
[04:18] Goro
    Then you hired me because you
    saw the value in my studies?!
[04:22] Catherine
    Of course.
[04:24] Catherine
    Don't let the glamour fool you.
    I understand what it's like being a scientist.
[04:28] Catherine
    The pursuit of truth is our motivation.
[04:31] Catherine
    Nobody can stop that hunger for knowledge.
[04:34] Goro
    Chief...!
[04:36] Catherine
    Which is why, out of respect for you as a
    scientist, I'd like to show you something.
[04:42] Goro
    MOParts?! And three of them?!
[04:45] Goro
    These belong to the White Pegasus
    Company! How do you have them?
[04:48] Catherine
    As the chief editor
    of a scientific publication,
[04:51] Catherine
    I have certain confidential avenues.
[04:53] Goro
    Confidential avenues? Like what?
[04:56] Catherine
    They wouldn't be very confidential
    if I could tell you, would they?
[04:59] Goro
    That is true.
[05:01] Catherine
    But in exchange for keeping my secret,
    I'm letting you have them all.
[05:06] Catherine
    It's up to you to choose how to use them.
[05:10] Catherine
    But I do know that, as a scientist,
    there's only one real use for them.
[05:19] Catherine
    I'm looking forward to seeing
    what you do, Mr. Scientist.
[05:27] Goro
    Though, as a scientist,
    I know there's only one real use for them.
[05:40] Goro
    I've got big news, Jiro!
[05:43] Goro
    This is no time for napping, Taro, Saburo!
[05:46] Goro
    Please, wake up!
[05:48] Taro
    Man, what are you freaking out about?
[05:53] Goro
    Look here!
[05:57] Jiro
    Those are...
[05:59] Goro
    They're just what they seem: MOParts!
[06:01] Goro
    Three of them.
[06:02] Goro
    Add the three that you have
    to these, and we have all six!
[06:07] Goro
    This will let us access the Mo Continent!
[06:09] Goro
    Come on, Taro, Jiro, Saburo!
[06:13] Goro
    Let's see your MOParts!
[06:16] Taro
    Whoa, whoa, whoa, slow it down a second.
[06:19] Goro
    This is not the time! Hurry, please!
[06:22] Taro
    Listen, man, this is
    a little too much to swallow.
[06:26] Taro
    How'd you even end up with these?
[06:30] Goro
    The chief editor gave them to me!
[06:32] Taro
    Catherine did? That makes even less sense.
[06:37] Jiro
    Even if Catherine did have them,
    why would she give them to you, Goro?
[06:41] Goro
    She's read my papers and
    acknowledged me as a scientist!
[06:47] Jiro
    Even though you got fired from the lab?
[06:50] Goro
    She told me how she's believed in
    the Mo Continent for a long time, as well.
[06:56] Goro
    That she started Monthly Moso Science
[06:58] Goro
    so she could pursue
    the truth about the continent!
[07:02] Goro
    I believe that she must've independently
    learned about the MOParts
[07:05] Goro
    and been investigating on her own!
[07:08] Goro
    And since I'm researching the Mo Continent
    as well, she felt a connection,
[07:12] Goro
    leading her to entrust me with her MOParts!
[07:16] Goro
    Now, hurry, let's see those MOParts!
[07:19] Taro
    I don't think so.
[07:20] Goro
    Why not?! We're so close
    to learning the truth!
[07:23] Goro
    What about you, Jiro, Saburo?!
[07:29] Taro
    Think about it for a sec.
    This all sounds really fishy.
[07:33] Taro
    How did Catherine even have
    MOParts in the first place?
[07:36] Goro
    She said they were
    from a confidential source...
[07:39] Taro
    Like what?
[07:41] Goro
    They're confidential, so she couldn't say.
[07:45] Jiro
    I've noticed that these two MOParts
[07:49] Jiro
    belong to the duo that's always bugging us.
[07:52] Jiro
    So, why do you have them?
[07:54] Goro
    That's...
[07:55] Jiro
    This other one, too.
    Where did she find it, and how?
[07:58] Goro
    She only said they were
    from her confidential source.
[08:01] Taro
    Sounds like she didn't give you any answers.
[08:03] Taro
    I thought you were a scientist, man.
[08:06] Goro
    Well, it's not like you've ever questioned
    your ability to transform, Taro!
[08:11] Taro
    How can I when I never
    remember what happens?
[08:13] Goro
    What about you, Jiro? You're
    the prince of the Mo Continent, right?
[08:17] Goro
    Are you fine leaving things like this?
    Turning a blind eye to your origins?
[08:22] Jiro
    When you put it like that...
[08:24] Goro
    You're a Motarian too, Saburo!
    You have to be curious!
[08:30] Taro
    Wait, Saburo!
[08:32] Taro
    You've got a MOPart now, why don't
    you transform and fess up already?
[08:35] Taro
    Then you can tell him everything he wants
    to know about the Mo Continent.
[08:41] Jiro
    I don't think he wants to transform or talk.
[08:44] Taro
    Look, Goro, don't you think there's some
    stuff out there we're better off not knowing?
[08:49] Goro
    But I do want to know!
[08:52] Goro
    As a researcher, I want to learn the truth!
[08:56] Goro
    So I'm asking you to please
    give me your MOParts!
[08:59] Goro
    I want to raise the Mo Continent!
[09:02] Taro
    I really don't see the point.
[09:05] Taro
    Besides, I think this is a trap.

    Look here.

[09:16] Goro
    Well, I will not let superstition deter me
    when I'm so close to the truth!
[09:20] Goro
    Now, please, give me your MOParts!
[09:22] Taro
    Not happening!
[09:24] Goro
    Taro, wait!
[09:28] Goro
    What are you doing?! Give it to me!
[09:30] Taro
    Earth could spin the wrong way,
[09:31] Taro
    with the axis flipped,
    and I still wouldn't fork it over!
[09:34] Goro
    Now you're just being childish!
[09:36] Taro
    Come on, come and get me!
[09:39] Goro
    I'll take it by force, then!
[09:41] Taro
    Nice try, but it's not in there!
[09:44] Goro
    Just hand it over already!
[09:46] Taro
    I said no and I mean it!
[09:47] Goro
    Give it to me!
[09:48] Taro
    No!
[09:49] Goro
    Give! Give it to me!
[09:49] Taro
    No! No!

    Would you twerps knock it off already?!
[10:04] Taro
    The point is, I'm not handing this over!

[10:19] Goro
    Why? Why won't any of you understand?
[10:36] Goro
    What's up, Jiro?
[10:44] Noin
    It's gone! I seriously can't find it!
[10:46] Perch
    Mine too!
[10:48] Noin
    Damn it! What are we supposed to do?!
[10:50] Perch
    If the boss finds out
    our MOParts are missing...
[10:53] Edward
    Did I hear that correctly?
[10:56] Twins
    Boss!
[10:59] Edward
    I see. Then they've been missing
    since you woke up this morning.
[11:04] Perch
    Yes, sir. I think someone
    may have stolen them.
[11:06] Noin
    That's gotta be it!
[11:08] Edward
    You're saying that someone
    was able to penetrate
[11:11] Edward
    the first-rate security
    of the White Pegasus Company?
[11:15] Perch
    Most likely.
[11:16] Noin
    There's no other explanation!
[11:25] Perch
    Boss, where are you going?
[11:37] Edward
    Four Tune. Are you in there, Four Tune?
[11:50] Edward
    Could it be...?
[11:54] Goro
    What can I do...?
[11:56] Goro
    I'm so close to raising the Mo Continent.
[12:01] Goro
    I thought we were friends...
[12:05] Goro
    I've enjoyed my time working
    here so much, and yet...
[12:12] Goro
    Why?
[12:17] Goro
    What is it, Saburo?
[12:22] Taro
    Sun's setting, y'know.
[12:24] Taro
    How long are you gonna be out here?
[12:26] Jiro
    What's it matter? I can stay if I want.
[12:30] Jiro
    And how long are you gonna stick around?
[12:33] Taro
    I dunno. As long as I want to.
[12:40] Jiro
    What is it?
[12:41] Taro
    Well, y'know...
[12:44] Taro
    I was wondering if you had
    the same suspicions all along, too.
[12:48] Jiro
    About Catherine?
[12:50] Taro
    Yeah.
[12:57] Taro
    Thinking back now, it started when I was
    unemployed with nothing better to do...
[13:01] Taro
    I would order a single coffee at Cafe Rock
    and waste my entire day there.
[13:09] (Flashback) Rock
    There, there.
[13:12] (Flashback) Taro
    Whoa! Since when have you had a kid, Master?
[13:14] (Flashback) Taro
    At your age! Nice one!
[13:16] (Flashback) Rock
    No, he's not mine.
[13:18] (Flashback) Rock
    I'm looking after him for a while,
    since he's an orphan.
[13:22] (Flashback) Rock
    Come on, mwah mwah,
    got your milk right here.
[13:26] (Flashback) Taro
    Oh, you suck at this.
[13:29] (Flashback) Taro
    Let me see him.
[13:31] (Flashback) Taro
    He might be a baby, but he's still a human.
    Show the kid some respect.
[13:35] (Flashback) Taro
    Here's some milk, junior. If you're
    hungry, then this'll set you straight!
[13:42] (Flashback) Rock
    Wow! I've never seen Jiro
    take a bottle so easily!
[13:45] (Flashback) Taro
    His name's Jiro?
[13:47] (Flashback) Taro
    Hey, he's got a birthmark like mine.
[13:53] Taro
    It was a while after that
    when Catherine showed up,
[13:57] Taro
    talking about starting the magazine...
[14:02] (Flashback) Catherine
    Oh.
[14:07] (Flashback) Rock
    That dog keeps showing up here.
[14:10] (Flashback) Rock
    But he seems harmless.
[14:12] (Flashback) Catherine
    I agree.
[14:15] Taro
    And after that, I sort of just
    ended up working for Catherine...
[14:21] Jiro
    And when I was three,
[14:23] Jiro
    she invited me to help out
    because I could already talk.
[14:26] Jiro
    Saburo was already part of the staff then.
[14:29] Taro
    Which raises the question...
[14:33] Jiro
    When did Catherine learn
    about that stuff in the basement?
[14:37] Taro
    Yeah. Did she stumble onto it on accident?
[14:41] Jiro
    Or has she always known about it?
[14:45] Goro
    Saburo, slow down!
[14:47] Goro
    Where are we going?
[14:55] Taro
    So, did you figure anything else out?
[14:58] Taro
    You remember being prince
    of the Mo Continent, right?
[15:01] Jiro
    Yeah. But that's all, so far.
[15:04] Taro
    What do you think that really means, though?
[15:10] Taro
    Can you not remember?
[15:11] Taro
    Or... is it that you
    don't want to remember?
[15:18] Taro
    I don't know, or care, what
    the Mo Continent was like.
[15:22] Taro
    But... if it actually does show back up,
[15:25] Taro
    I can say that our lives
    are definitely gonna change.
[15:29] Taro
    Especially since you're a prince, Jiro.
[15:33] Taro
    If you like things the way
    they are, then so do I.
[15:39] Goro
    Was Taro opposed to it... for Jiro's sake?
[15:43] Taro
    The question is, how do we
    get Goro to drop the subject?
[15:47] Taro
    He's stubborn as a mule.
[15:51] Jiro
    You're right, Taro.
[15:54] Goro
    Tell me about it! That dude
    can be such a stickler...
[15:57] Jiro
    Not that. About the Mo Continent.
[16:02] Jiro
    I've always had this feeling like
    I was curious but anxious, too.
[16:06] Jiro
    Like I was afraid to learn the truth.
[16:09] Jiro
    I think that might be why my memories
    are only coming back in patches.
[16:13] Jiro
    But... Goro is right.
    I should learn the truth.
[16:17] Jiro
    About the place I was born.
[16:19] Jiro
    If I'm a prince, I can't run from the truth!
[16:22] Taro
    Come on, that doesn't mean
    you're obligated to do anything.
[16:26] Taro
    You can run if you want.
[16:28] Jiro
    No! I've made up my mind!
[16:32] Jiro
    We're going to raise the Mo Continent—
[16:33] Goro
    We don't need to raise the Mo Continent!
[16:40] Goro
    Jiro, I'm so sorry. I was being so selfish.
[16:43] Goro
    I never imagined the pressure
    you might feel as their prince.
[16:48] Goro
    It's just like Taro said.
[16:51] Goro
    There are some things that
    we're better off not learning.
[16:53] Goro
    Which is why the Mo Continent can stay...
[16:55] Jiro
    No! We're raising it!
[16:58] Jiro
    I decided! We are definitely doing this!
[17:01] Goro
    No, we can't!
[17:03] Jiro
    We can!
[17:03] Goro
    We can't!
[17:04] Jiro
    The prince has made his decision!
[17:06] Goro
    Even so, I say no!
[17:08] Jiro
    I say yes!
[17:09] Taro
    Oh, dammit, you two are such a pain!
[17:12] Taro
    Let's just raise
    the stupid Mo Continent then.
[17:14] Goro
    But...
[17:16] Jiro
    Scientists are supposed to
    chase the truth, right?
[17:21] Goro
    Jiro... Taro...
[17:24] Taro
    That settles it then. Here you go.
[17:48] Edward
    Who's there?!
[17:49] Catherine
    It's me, Ed.
[17:51] Edward
    Four Tune?!
[17:55] Edward
    You look amazing today.
[17:58] Catherine
    It's fun to dress up at times.
[18:00] Edward
    I'm so relieved. I was looking for you.
[18:02] Catherine
    Oh? For me?
[18:04] Catherine
    Or for your missing MOParts?
[18:07] Edward
    Then it was you...?
[18:11] Catherine
    I've given them all of the MOParts.
[18:14] Edward
    But why?!
[18:16] Catherine
    Because you need all six
    to raise the Mo Continent.
[18:21] Catherine
    So why not simply hand them over
    and let them do it?
[18:25] Edward
    Are you sure that's for the best?
[18:27] Catherine
    Of course. Everything
    has gone according to plan, so far.
[18:33] Catherine
    That was the reason I wanted them
    under my supervision in the first place.
[18:38] Catherine
    Besides, the MOParts are only the key.
[18:41] Catherine
    Once the continent resurfaces,
    they're worthless.
[18:45] Edward
    Wait... what do you mean?
[18:47] Catherine
    You'll see soon, Ed.
[18:49] Catherine
    And then it'll be clear what I'm really after.
[18:53] Edward
    Your true goal?
[18:55] Edward
    I thought you wanted to raise the Mo Continent
    to prove its existence to the public.
[19:07] Goro
    Okay, everyone. I'm placing the pieces.
[19:27] Goro
    This is the last one.
[19:29] Goro
    Once this is inserted, I believe
    the Mo Continent will rise.
[19:32] Goro
    Are we all ready?
[19:35] Taro
    Yeah.
[19:43] Goro
    It's in.
[19:51] Taro
    What? What's happening?
[19:53] Jiro
    It's gonna collapse!
[19:57] Taro
    We gotta go!
[19:58] Goro
    No! I'm going to stay here
    and witness the tru—
[20:03] Taro
    Let's move!
[20:09] Taro
    Huh?
[20:10] Jiro
    The shaking stopped.
[20:13] Goro
    Ow, ow...
[20:15] Goro
    The truth!
[20:17] Taro
    Hang on.
[20:20] Taro
    I can hear something...
[20:23] Goro
    What is that sound?
[20:25] Taro
    It's from over there!
[20:40] Jiro
    I can feel... feel something!
[20:43] Taro
    Do you know what it is?
[20:45] Jiro
    It's coming... it's coming...
[20:47] Jiro
    It's coming!
[20:51] Goro
    Something just surfaced!
[20:53] Taro
    What?!
[20:57] Crowd
    What is that?!
[20:59] Crowd
    Some kinda natural disaster?!
[21:05] Goro
    A piece of land covered
    in some kind of dome...
[21:12] Goro
    Remarkable! Just as the texts described!
[21:16] Goro
    No, this level of technology
    is beyond what was written!
[21:24] Goro
    How high is it going to rise?
[21:26] Jiro
    Is it going to go all the way into the sky?
[21:29] Goro
    I believe it is!
[21:39] Catherine
    I see the scientist has lived up to my hopes.
[21:43] Edward
    Th-That's the Continent of Mo...

    Boss!

[21:52] Perch
    Coming where? Who is she?

    I wonder what Catherine's planning.

[02:37] Edward
    Right. Come along, boys.
[02:39] Twins
    Yes, boss!
[02:43] Taro
    This is the Mo Continent...?
[02:45] Goro
    The records all said it was
    a terrestrial continent...
[02:49] Goro
    But it's apparently floating in the sky!
[02:52] Taro
    So, how do we even get there?
[02:57] Taro
    It looks like exterior
    access will be difficult.
[02:59] Taro
    There must be some kind of entrance!
[03:03] Taro
    Saburo?
[03:04] Taro
    What's up, Saburo?
[03:09] Jiro
    Maybe he knows!
[03:10] Goro
    Right!
[03:11] Taro
    H-Hey!
[03:15] Goro
    One moment, please! Let me grab my bag!
[03:17] Taro
    Well, make it snappy!
[03:20] Jiro
    I knew it...
[03:22] Taro
    You mean to tell me...
[03:24] Goro
    I believe this is the entrance
    to the Mo Continent!
[03:28] Jiro
    Come on!
[03:32] Taro
    Whoa, don't rush off on your own!
[03:35] Goro
    We're finally heading
    to the continent of Mo!
[03:37] Taro
    Man, it's too dark down here, Goro.
    You have any kind of light?
[03:40] Goro
    Yes, I certainly do!
[03:43] Goro
    Switch on!
[03:54] Taro
    There's all kinds of stuff on the walls...
[03:56] Goro
    Just as the Moren poetic epics described!
[04:00] Taro
    Moren what now?
[04:02] Goro
    Some of the oldest works of literature
    on record, the Moren poetic epics.
[04:06] Goro
    There were stories about beasts who
    came upon the door to time itself...
[04:11] Goro
    I'm sure if we keep going, we'll reach
    the entrance to the Mo Continent!
[04:20] Taro
    Looks like we reached a dead end.
[04:22] Taro
    And I don't see any entrance.
[04:27] Goro
    That's odd...
[04:29] Goro
    Oh, look there!
    There's some kind of pattern!
[04:33] Taro
    Where have I seen this mark before...?
[04:36] Jiro
    I got that feeling, too.
[04:37] Goro
    I believe I recognize it as well.
[04:44] Taro
    It's this!
[04:46] Jiro
    And this!
[04:50] Goro
    Wait, that?!
[04:53] Taro
    What's going on?!
[05:06] Taro
    Is this...?
[05:09] Jiro
    It's...
[05:12] Jiro
    The Mo Continent.
[05:16] Goro
    The Mo Continent!
[05:18] Goro
    We're finally... finally here!
[05:21] Saburo
    Welcome home, Prince.
[05:26] Taro
    Whoa, when did you transform?!
[05:28] Goro
    And without a MOPart!
[05:30] Saburo
    Motarians are able to transform
    at will in this place.
[05:34] Goro
    They can?!
[05:35] Taro
    Why would you ask me?!
[05:37] Goro
    Then maybe I can, too!
[05:43] Goro
    Transform!
[05:53] Saburo
    Yeah, that's not gonna work.
    Because you're human.
[05:57] Goro
    I thought so...
[05:59] Goro
    Makes sense.
[06:01] Taro
    Gotta say, I'd been wondering
    how wild this place was gonna be...
[06:07] Taro
    But it seems pretty normal.
[06:09] Goro
    Hardly. The flora and fauna
    are completely different. Observe!
[06:15] Goro
    I've never seen anything like it.
[06:19] Taro
    Good point...
[06:21] Goro
    But the philosopher Peleton
    called it a golden continent...
[06:26] Saburo
    Oh, yeah...
[06:29] Saburo
    He was probably talking about that.
[06:38] Taro
    What is going on?
[06:40] Goro
    The vegetation is shining!
[06:44] Taro
    I keep getting the weirdest feeling...
[06:47] Taro
    The wind here smells nostalgic.
[06:50] Saburo
    Did you remember something?
[06:53] Taro
    How about our Mo Continent prince?
[06:57] Taro
    You remember anything?
[06:59] Jiro
    Yeah. I've remembered everything, Taro.
[07:04] Jiro
    Us meeting wasn't a coincidence, after all.
[07:08] Taro
    What do you mean?
[07:10] Jiro
    I'll tell you once you remember!
[07:12] Taro
    What would be the point, then?
[07:16] Taro
    What's that?
[07:17] Goro
    Over there! I can hear it from that building.
[07:20] Saburo
    I wonder if someone got here first...
[07:24] Jiro
    Before us?
[07:25] Jiro
    Could it be Ra Mo?!
[07:27] Taro
    Ra who exactly?
[07:28] Jiro
    We need to hurry!
[07:30] Taro
    Whoa, Jiro!
[07:31] Goro
    What's going on? Hey, wait!
[07:43] Taro
    I feel like I've seen this before.
[07:46] Jiro
    This is the castle I lived in once.
[07:49] Taro
    It is?
[07:50] Goro
    Then this is a palace for Motarian royalty?
[07:54] Taro
    Again?
[07:55] Jiro
    Not good!
[07:56] Taro
    Seriously, what exactly
    are you worried about?!
[08:09] Goro
    This castle and all of the life-forms here
    are more in scale with Motarian size...
[08:15] Goro
    I get it! You two just need to transform!
[08:19] Taro
    We do?
[08:22] Jiro
    We need to hurry, Taro!
[08:25] Taro
    Aw, man... I guess we have to.
[08:53] Taro
    Prince?!
[08:55] Jiro
    Right.
[08:59] Taro
    Okay, let's go, Jiro!
[09:05] Goro
    Has Taro regained his memories?
[09:08] Saburo
    Come on, we ought to get moving, too.
[09:10] Goro
    Oh, right!
[09:16] Jiro
    We have to hurry!
[09:21] Goro
    This is... quite difficult!
[09:26] Catherine
    We're almost there.
[09:28] Twins
    Yes, Miss Four Tune!
[09:30] Twins
    Ready and...
[09:41] Catherine
    There it is.
[09:43] Edward
    Four Tune, will you please tell me
    what this is all about, now?
[09:46] Edward
    What are you really after?
[09:49] Catherine
    Ed... my real goal is...
[09:53] Jiro
    Don't you touch it!
[10:06] Jiro
    Father told me as much.
[10:08] Jiro
    It must never be toyed with.
[10:11] Jiro
    Now, step away from it, Catherine!
[10:15] Edward
    Catherine?
[10:16] Catherine
    Oh, you're already here...
[10:21] Catherine
    Prince.
[10:28] Goro
    What's the chief doing here?!
[10:32] Catherine
    You seemed to be searching for my papers...
[10:36] Catherine
    But they're long gone.
[10:39] Goro
    Your papers? Wait...
[10:42] Catherine
    Correct. Fourteen years ago, I published
    those papers... as Four Tune.
[10:49] (Flashback) Catherine
    The land of a long-lost advanced civilization,
[10:51] (Flashback) Catherine
    the continent of Mo, did exist!
[10:55] Goro
    Then Catherine is an alias...?
[10:57] Taro
    Yeah. Sure looks like it.
[11:00] Catherine
    And now, Mr. Scientist, I've been able to
    raise the continent of Mo thanks to you.
[11:07] Catherine
    I'm grateful.
[11:09] Goro
    You used me!
[11:11] Catherine
    Don't you remember? I told you,
    I understand how scientists feel.
[11:16] Catherine
    And naturally...
[11:18] Catherine
    I know how to most
    effectively manipulate them.
[11:22] Catherine
    Right?
[11:25] Jiro
    Never mind that! Just step back now!
[11:28] Catherine
    Don't look so upset.
[11:31] Catherine
    Aren't we all countrymen,
    with the same branding?
[11:36] Goro
    Is that... the same...?
[11:49] Jiro
    That's right.
[11:51] Jiro
    She's just like us. A Motarian,
    born here on the continent of Mo.
[11:58] Goro
    Even the chief?
[12:00] Goro
    Then... everyone but me...?
[12:09] Edward
    No, I'm human.
[12:13] Catherine
    Correct. Excluding the two of you,
    everyone here is a Motarian.
[12:17] Catherine
    And since we're all from the
    same place, let's get along.
[12:21] Jiro
    Enough talk! I won't let you activate Ra Mo!
[12:25] Edward
    Ra Mo?
[12:27] Goro
    Ra Mo... I believe in the Moren epics,
[12:30] Goro
    that was the name of the supreme deity...
[12:32] Goro
    Ra Mo, the sun god.
[12:35] Catherine
    Exactly.
[12:37] Catherine
    In ancient times, the Motarians
    used their advanced technology
[12:42] Catherine
    to create a machine more powerful
    than the sun god, Ra Mo.
[12:46] Goro
    More than a sun god?!
[12:52] Catherine
    Ed.
[12:54] Catherine
    What I really want...
[12:59] Catherine
    is to activate Ra Mo!
[13:08] Jiro
    Don't do it, Catherine!
[13:26] Taro
    What the...?
[13:27] Jiro
    I've never actually seen it before, either.
[13:29] Goro
    What manner of device is it?
[13:34] Catherine
    Ra Mo... is a device
    for eradicating humanity.
[13:40] Edward
    Eradicating... humanity?
[13:44] Catherine
    I am the reincarnation of my
    ancestors, who created Ra Mo.
[13:49] Catherine
    Which is why I have an obligation
    to inherit their agenda!
[13:53] Jiro
    Then I have a duty to stop Ra Mo!
[13:57] Taro
    And it's my duty to protect the prince!
[14:00] Goro
    Eradicating humanity? But why?!
[14:05] Catherine
    I suppose our resident scientist
    wasn't able to figure that part out.
[14:10] Catherine
    Why don't you tell him?
[14:18] Jiro
    Long ago, on the Mo Continent,
    the Motarians lived in peace.
[14:25] (Flashback) King
    The view from here never ceases to amaze.
[14:29] (Flashback) Jiro
    The wind feels nice!
[14:31] (Flashback) Jiro
    Hey, why don't we go out this afternoon?
[14:34] (Flashback) Taro
    That sounds lovely, Prince.
[14:37] Jiro
    She was a loyal and wise advisor
    who served my father.
[14:43] Jiro
    But... unknown to me and my father,
    she had been planning something unthinkable.
[14:52] (Flashback) King
    Eradicate humanity?!
[14:55] (Flashback) Catherine
    Yes! Ra Mo is ready for activation!
[14:58] (Flashback) Catherine
    I believe we should engage it
    as soon as possible.
[15:02] (Flashback) King
    What has gotten into you?!
    We can't do something so dangerous!
[15:06] (Flashback) Catherine
    Are you not aware of what
    is happening on the surface, sire?
[15:11] (Flashback) Catherine
    The humans engage in endless wars.
[15:15] (Flashback) Catherine
    They are barbarians, caught in
    an unending cycle of violence!
[15:19] (Flashback) Catherine
    The world no longer needs them!
[15:22] (Flashback) King
    It is not our place to judge!
[15:25] (Flashback) King
    Eradicating humanity would be playing god!
[15:28] (Flashback) Catherine
    Which is why I used the name
    of the sun god, Ra Mo!
[15:34] (Flashback) Catherine
    It's only a matter of time before
    our peace is engulfed by their fighting.
[15:39] (Flashback) Catherine
    We must unleash the wrath
    of the sun god upon the humans!
[15:45] Jiro
    Afterward, the Motarians were divided
[15:48] Jiro
    between those in favor of and
     those against activating Ra Mo.
[15:54] Goro
    The king was right!
[15:56] Goro
    Even with all of the conflict,
[15:59] Goro
    no one has the right to
     exterminate all of humanity!
[16:03] Catherine
    Maybe if it was a human
    considering the choice.
[16:07] Catherine
    But we wield the advanced technology
    of a superior civilization! We are better!
[16:13] Catherine
    And it's that power that gives us
    a responsibility to protect this planet!
[16:18] Taro
    What a joke...
[16:21] Taro
    This is why I've always hated this
    "advanced civilization, over-technology" crap.
[16:26] Taro
    You always get jerks who're convinced
    they get to do whatever they want
[16:30] Taro
    if they have the power to back it up.
[16:33] Catherine
    How dare you?!
[16:35] Taro
    The best thing in life is to chill out
    and do things normally.
[16:38] Saburo
    I am in full agreement.
[16:43] Catherine
    I don't care what any of you say.
    I will carry out the duty I've inherited!
[16:48] Jiro
    You'd be making the same mistake as before!
[16:52] Jiro
    That was why my father chose
    to sink the Mo Continent!
[16:57] Jiro
    To lock Ra Mo away
    so that it would not be used!
[17:00] Jiro
    He chose to coexist with humanity.
[17:09] Goro
    And that's why the continent
    vanished into the sea overnight?
[17:13] Jiro
    Before sinking the land, he arranged
    for our people to be reborn among humans.
[17:20] Jiro
    I have reincarnated time and again
    in order to ensure Ra Mo is never used.
[17:27] Jiro
    And...
[17:29] Jiro
    Now, after over ten thousand years,
[17:31] Jiro
    most of our kind do not realize
    they ever were Motarians.
[17:37] Jiro
    Much like how I didn't
    remember, until recently.
[17:40] Catherine
    It was the same for me.
[17:44] Catherine
    That moment... was when I remembered
    my true form and my true destiny.
[17:51] Catherine
    Everything else went
    as you're all aware of...
[17:54] Catherine
    I continued my research into the Mo Continent
    before calling that press conference.
[17:59] Goro
    Then the reason you chose
    that building for the office...
[18:02] Catherine
    Of course. Because I knew the mechanism
    for raising the continent was in the basement.
[18:07] (Flashback) Catherine
    This is it.
[18:10] (Flashback) Catherine
    This is what I was looking for!
[18:12] Catherine
    Not only that, but I learned
[18:14] Catherine
    that the reincarnated prince of the
    Mo Continent was living in the cafe...
[18:20] Catherine
    And for whatever reason,
[18:22] Catherine
    I encountered the rest of you, as well.
[18:27] Taro
    You had it figured out that far back?!
[18:29] Catherine
    Which is why I kept you all nearby,
    where I could watch you.
[18:39] Taro
    You actually had us bugged?!
[18:41] Catherine
    I did.
[18:43] Catherine
    And I had you gathering MOParts under the
    premise of doing stories for the magazine.
[18:49] Catherine
    All because of the foolish choice
    that your father, the king, made.
[18:56] Catherine
    It's become clear to me since
    reincarnating into this era...
[19:00] Catherine
    These vulgar, base humans who
    pursue nothing but their own greed...
[19:06] Edward
    Four Tune...
[19:08] Catherine
    Even after all this time,
    they repeat the same mistakes.
[19:13] Catherine
    I know for certain now that
    your father was wrong!
[19:18] Catherine
    Humans are the cruelest creatures alive.
[19:21] Catherine
    And this planet does not need them.
[19:24] Catherine
    I will activate Ra Mo to rid us of humanity!
[19:28] Jiro
    I won't let you!
[19:30] Taro
    Hold it, Catherine!
[19:32] Taro
    Did you seriously only run
    into awful people?!
[19:34] Catherine
    That's right!
[19:36] Taro
    Then what about him?
[19:42] Taro
    He followed you all the way here...
[19:45] Taro
    That has to mean, if nothing else,
    that he trusts you!
[19:50] Taro
    And you don't care if he's gone, too?!
[19:55] Perch
    The boss...
[19:57] Noin
    Would be gone?
[19:58] Taro
    That's gotta be included in the
    "exterminate humans" deal, right?!
[20:05] Edward
    Do not let them mislead you, Four Tune!
[20:08] Edward
    You... should do what you believe is right!
[20:12] Catherine
    That... that's right!
[20:14] Catherine
    I've worked for so long to see
    my mission accomplished...
[20:19] Edward
    Indeed you have, Four Tune.
[20:21] Edward
    For the longest time, I have stood
    by your side through your efforts.
[20:25] Edward
    Which is why, no matter the situation...
[20:28] Edward
    I will stand with you.
[20:31] Catherine
    Ed...
[20:37] Jiro
    Don't!
[20:44] Edward
    Do it, Four Tune!
[20:46] Edward
    It doesn't matter what happens to me!
    I'd be honored to vanish for your sake!
[20:51] Edward
    Now!
[21:21] Taro
    Is this...
[21:22] Goro
    Could it be?

    The timer until the end of the world,
    brought to us by the sun god, Ra Mo.
[21:28] Taro
    Huh...
[21:33] Goro
    That's... a map of the world!
[21:37] Saburo
    Well, I've got a real bad feeling about this.
[21:41] Jiro
    Right. Once the last of the sand falls...

    Mankind will be wiped out.

[01:09] Taro
    Damn it! Can't we stop this thing?
[01:12] Jiro
    Father told me that once Ra Mo
    is activated, it can't be stopped.
[01:18] Catherine
    Ed... I-I...
[01:21] Edward
    Don't worry. You were right.
    This is for the best.
[01:28] Catherine
    Ed!
[01:30] Twins
    Boss!
[01:31] Goro
    He's about to vanish!
[01:34] Saburo
    So are you, actually.
[01:41] Jiro
    My father also warned me about this:
    the countdown until mankind's eradicated!
[01:47] Goro
    R-Remarkable... then this same phenomenon
    is happening to all of humanity...
[01:53] Goro
    That's so over-scientific!
[01:56] Taro
    Quit being impressed!
    Humanity's about to be wiped out!
[02:01] Saburo
    Even the cafe's owner...
[02:04] Saburo
    That old-timer took such
    good care of me, too.
[02:07] Taro
    Come on, Goro, can't you
    science us up a way out of this?
[02:11] Catherine
    It's pointless. Human science
    would be powerless in the face
[02:16] Catherine
    of the super-advanced technology
    from the Mo Continent.
[02:22] Jiro
    No. There might be one way.
[02:26] Jiro
    The entire Mo Continent
    needs to be destroyed.
[02:30] Taro
    The whole continent?
[02:32] Goro
    It can be destroyed?
[02:35] Jiro
    My father sunk the continent into the sea
    so that Ra Mo would be out of reach.
[02:41] Jiro
    And now it's my turn to do the same.
[02:45] Jiro
    So that we can stop Ra Mo.
[02:48] Goro
    B-But are you sure?
    This place is your home...
[02:52] Jiro
    It's fine. Because this is the reason...
[02:57] Jiro
    I've been reborn so many times.
[03:02] Goro
    Understood. Tell us
    what we need to do, Jiro!
[03:06] Jiro
    I'm not sure.
[03:08] Jiro
    He never told me that.
[03:11] Jiro
    I'm not sure how my father
    sank the continent.
[03:16] Saburo
    Well, the next tower over has the royal
    chamber in it. Maybe there's a hint in there?
[03:21] Saburo
    I'll go check!
[03:26] Saburo
    We can't even run now.
[03:37] Saburo
    Wait a sec...
[03:38] Goro
    Saburo? What is it?
[03:40] Saburo
    Well, I think this is
    a message for the prince.
[03:46] Jiro
    What's it say?!
[03:47] Saburo
    The only part I can read is "Dear Prince."
[03:51] Jiro
    It's written in a code...
[03:54] Jiro
    Maybe this shows how
    to sink the Mo Continent!
[03:59] Edward
    I won't let that happen!
[04:03] Taro
    Don't do it!
[04:23] Catherine
    Ed!
[04:24] Catherine
    Ed... Ed, Ed please!
[04:27] Catherine
    Ed... don't do this to me, Ed...

    No!

    Boss...
[04:54] Catherine
    No one is stopping Ra Mo.
[04:58] Catherine
    I won't let you!
[05:03] Catherine
    I can just destroy your tablet!
[05:07] Goro
    Jiro!
[05:08] Jiro
    Goro, you need to figure out what it says!
[05:10] Goro
    Right!
[05:12] Jiro
    I know the code already!
[05:14] Jiro
    You can smash the tablet, but you'll
    need to take me down anyway!
[05:18] Catherine
    Damn you!
[05:21] Taro
    Jiro!
[05:23] Perch
    If you want to protect your prince...
[05:25] Noin
    You've gotta get past us first!

    Empty your mind!

[05:56] Taro
    Are you for real?!
[05:59] Twins
    You're like a little ant compared to us now!
[06:04] Taro
    Put me down!
[06:05] Twins
    Is that what you want?
[06:09] Twins
    Here you go, then!
[06:14] Saburo
    Is that a panda...?
[06:18] Goro
    This string of characters...
    there has to be some pattern to it.
[06:30] Taro
    Oh, you're gonna pay for that!
[06:33] Twins
    Funny thing for an insect to say!
[06:42] Saburo
    This is bad!
[06:44] Jiro
    Taro...
[07:14] Taro
    Bigger isn't better!
[07:15] Twins
    Dammit...
[07:27] Taro
    I'm on the way, Jiro!
[07:30] Twins
    We don't think so!
[07:42] Goro
    Then if I make the connection here...
[07:45] Goro
    Mo Molu... Morea Mo Sera Sera...
[07:49] Goro
    I see! I know how to decipher it now!
[08:00] Twins
    This fight is over!
[08:04] Twins
    Get crushed!
[08:15] Twins
    Wh-What?!
[08:32] Saburo
    Well, damn! How can I not sing
    after seeing all that?
[08:40] Goro
    That's it!
[08:41] Goro
    So, Mo Molu refers to the Mo Continent's
    royal family, and Morea is their symbol...
[08:46] Goro
    If I put that together, it says to place
    the royal family's symbol upon Mo Sera Sera...
[08:50] Goro
    Mo Sera Sera! That's the last part I need.
[08:53] Saburo
    Mo, Mo, Mo...Mo Sera Sera, Moala, Moana!
[09:00] Saburo
    Ra Mo, Ra Mo!
[09:03] Goro
    Saburo!
[09:04] Saburo
    What's up?
[09:05] Goro
    You just sung the words Mo Sera Sera, right?!
[09:08] Saburo
    Sorry about that. I was in a cheering mood...
[09:11] Goro
    What's that mean?! "Mo Sera Sera"!
[09:14] Saburo
    Uh, well, it's kinda like...
[09:18] Saburo
    The highest point, or at the top.
    Something like that.
[09:22] Goro
    The top...
[09:24] Goro
    The symbol of the royal family, at the top...
[09:27] Goro
    Jiro's from the royal family.
[09:29] Goro
    Then the top would be...
[09:59] Goro
    I've got it!
[10:00] Goro
    That must be the top it's referring to!
[10:08] Catherine
    You're finished, Prince!
[10:12] Taro
    Jiro!
[10:23] Taro
    You okay, Jiro?!
[10:26] Goro
    Taro! It's at the highest
    point of the castle!
[10:29] Goro
    That's where the mechanism
    to sink the Mo Continent is!
[10:32] Taro
    Seriously?!
[10:35] Goro
    The plate says that the symbol of the royal
    family needs to be used at Mo Sera Sera.
[10:40] Goro
    In other words, something
    at the very top of the castle
[10:43] Goro
    needs the approval of the royal family!
[10:47] Goro
    And Jiro is the only one here
    who has any kind of royal authority!
[10:54] Goro
    We're running out of time!
    Jiro, you need to hurry to the apex!
[10:58] Taro
    Okay, let's go!
[10:59] Jiro
    Right...!
[11:16] Goro
    Taro. Jiro.
[11:28] Catherine
    Ed... I'm sorry.
[11:56] Jiro
    Ow...!
[11:59] Jiro
    This must be it!
[12:01] Goro
    I think... it may be too late.
[12:04] Goro
    Saburo. Thank you for everything.
[12:08] Goro
    Give my regards to Taro and Jiro.
[12:12] Saburo
    You can tell them yourself! Don't give up!
[12:18] Jiro
    The symbol of the royal family...
[12:26] Taro
    Jiro! Did you find it?!
[13:00] Saburo
    You're back!
[13:01] Goro
    Thank goodness!
[13:03] Saburo
    They did it!
[13:05] Goro
    It looks like Taro and Jiro made it in time!
[13:07] Saburo
    Sure does!
[13:14] Saburo
    Well, that's not good.
[13:16] Goro
    Just when I was feeling relieved!
[13:21] Taro
    We gotta go, now!
[13:23] Goro
    Taro!
[13:24] Jiro
    This place is going to sink!
[13:26] Goro
    But how do we escape?
[13:28] Goro
    I don't think we can make it to the portal
    we came here through in time!
[13:40] Saburo
    Since we're out of options,
    I'll give you a lift.
[14:00] Goro
    That's... the legendary Mo Mo Bird!
[14:04] Saburo
    Hop on already! Clock's ticking!
[14:07] Goro
    R-Right!
[14:13] Goro
    You too, Taro!
[14:14] Taro
    Come on, you two!
[14:17] Catherine
    No. I'm going to stay here with Ed.
[14:21] Taro
    What are you talking about, Catherine?!
[14:23] Catherine
    I'll sink with the Mo Continent.
[14:26] Catherine
    I've got no interest in the
    human world if Ed isn't there.
[14:30] Taro
    Dammit! Quit being melodramatic
    and get on the bird!
[14:33] Catherine
    Wait—
[15:04] Taro
    All that trouble to raise it and it goes
    back below after just a little while, huh...
[15:11] Jiro
    It's fine. Even if it's gone,
    I'll never forget the Mo Continent.
[15:16] Jiro
    No matter how many times I'm reborn.
[15:19] Taro
    Same here. I'm not forgetting any of this.
[15:53] Taro
    I'm back to normal...
[15:57] Goro
    Is it because the continent has sunk again?
[16:00] Jiro
    We may never transform again.
[16:04] Catherine
    Ed...
[16:08] Twins
    Boss...
[16:20] Jiro
    I've never tried this on someone
    hurt so badly before, but...

[16:56] Twins
    Thank goodness!
[16:56] Taro
    Nice work.
[16:58] Twins
    We were so worried!
[16:58] Goro
    That was incredible, Jiro! Brilliant!
[17:03] Taro
    Whoa, you okay there?!
[17:06] Jiro
    Probably shouldn't have done
    that on an empty stomach...
[17:08] Taro
    Don't scare us like that, man!

    I'm so relieved!
[17:22] Rock
    Already nighttime?
[17:24] Crowd
    What was that?!
[17:26] Crowd
    It sank into the sea!
[17:27] Crowd
    Do you think that was the Mo Continent?
[17:29] Goro
    Look! Everyone's starting
    to believe in the Mo Continent!
[17:33] Taro
    Well, yeah, after what they just saw.
[17:36] Jiro
    Seriously.
[17:39] Catherine
    Say, Ed...
[17:41] Edward
    Yes? What is it?
[17:43] Catherine
    I think I'd like some hot cocoa.
[17:48] Edward
    Of course. Let's go and get some.
[17:52] Edward
    Would you two like some?
[17:54] Catherine
    It's really good.
[17:58] Twins
    Sure, boss!
[18:11] Goro
    Now, it's time to begin our editorial meeting
    for next month's issue of Moso Science!
[18:17] Goro
    Oh, it's gonna be so over-scientific!
[18:20] Taro
    Oh, put a sock in it, man.
[18:23] Jiro
    That's a good sundae...
[18:26] Goro
    Come on, everyone, are you even listening?
[18:29] Goro
    We're having an editorial meeting!
[18:32] Taro
    Why are you calling it, though?
[18:35] Jiro
    And isn't the magazine on an indefinite hiatus,
    with the editorial team being broken up?
[18:41] Taro
    What Jiro said.
[18:43] Taro
    This time I'm gonna actually
    find a wife with Nancy's help
[18:48] Taro
    and move on to my life's true calling:
    supporting my beloved!
[18:54] Goro
    I'm afraid not!
[18:55] Goro
    You're all going to be working here still!
[18:59] Taro
    What are you talking about?
[19:00] Goro
    Monthly Moso Science is relaunching

SIGN    Letter of Appointment
    Mr. Goro Sato
[19:29] Taro
    An appointment letter?
[19:32] Taro
    And this is Catherine's signature.
[19:34] Goro
    It is! The genuine article, in fact.
[19:37] Taro
    The thing is, Catherine was an alias, right?
[19:40] Taro
    And her real name is Four Tune.
[19:43] Taro
    Which means this isn't valid.
[19:47] Taro
    That being the case, there's no chief editor,
    and the magazine's still on break!
[19:51] Goro
    Aw, no!
[19:53] Goro
    Saburo, say something, please!
[19:57] Goro
    Other than woof!
[19:59] Jiro
    But considering she was the chief
    editor using her Catherine identity...
[20:02] Jiro
    I think that means it might be legit.
[20:04] Goro
    That's it! Of course! Well said, Jiro!
[20:07] Taro
    Even if that's the case,
[20:09] Taro
    with the Mo Continent sunk,
    what story is Goro gonna chase now?
[20:13] Taro
    There's no real motivation
    to keep the magazine going.
[20:17] Goro
    Oh, I wouldn't be so sure!
[20:24] Taro
    What's supposed to be on the TV...?
[20:27] Jiro/Taro
    Four Tune!
[20:28] Edward
    Thank you all for coming today.

[20:31] Sign
    White Pegasus HQ
[20:36] Edward
    And today I'm here to
    introduce an announcement
[20:39] Edward
    from Dr. Four Tune, a scientist
    employed by our company.
[20:46] Catherine
    Yes. With the help of my trusted
    comrades and continued research...
[20:53] Catherine
    I've discovered there are other lost advanced
    civilizations, apart from the Mo Continent!
[21:00] Catherine
    They belong to the Ma Continent, Mi
    Continent, Mu Continent, and Me Continent...
[21:05] Catherine
    With each of the separate landmasses
    having their own distinct civilization!
[21:12] Catherine
    The Mo Continent was nothing more than
    our first glimpse of the M-Continents!
[21:17] Taro
    So there's more than just the Mo Continent?!
[21:20] Jiro
    I didn't know about that either!
[21:24] Goro
    See?! And that just proves the world
    remains full of unsolved mysteries!
[21:28] Goro
    Mysteries that we have a duty to investigate!
[21:32] Jiro
    Right! We've got lots of work left to do!
[21:34] Goro
    Correct! It's so over...
[21:36] Jiro
    Over-scientific!
[21:39] Goro
    Oh, I think that's the first time
    you've said that, Jiro!
[21:42] Jiro
    You can pick up all kinds
    of stuff through osmosis, huh?
[21:45] Jiro
    Since we're relaunching the magazine anyway,
[21:47] Jiro
    maybe we should try and
    popularize the phrase, too!
[21:50] Goro
    Oh, by all means!
[21:52] Taro
    Aw, man... There's no way this goes well.
[21:55] Catherine
    I hope you'll all look forward to further
    announcements regarding the M-Continents.
SIGN    Very
