[00:03] Taro
    What? You found me a match?!
[00:07] Taro
    So?
[00:08] Taro
    Who's the future partner
    you found for me?
[00:12] Taro
    Well?!
[00:14] Nancy
    Bit of a rare find.
[00:16] Nancy
    When it comes to earnings, employment,
    or looks, she had no requirements at all.
[00:20] Nancy
    You might say you hit the jackpot.
[00:22] Nancy
    Meanwhile, she is major league
    in every department.
[00:27] Taro
    What a lovely lady! And her name is Leah?
[00:31] Nancy
    Before marriage, you'll start with some dates—
[00:33] Taro
    A date! Okay, I need to get
    my game face on for this.
[00:44] Jiro
    I'm back.
[00:46] Jiro
    What's with the getup?
[00:49] Taro
    I've got a date with Miss Leah!
[00:51] Jiro
    Miss Leah?
[00:53] Goro
    His matchmaker found him someone
    for the first time, it seems.
[00:58] Taro
    Yep! This will be our first date,
    and the first step to our marriage!
[01:02] Taro
    I'm gonna capture her heart
[01:05] Taro
    and finally achieve my
    dream of house husbandom!
[01:08] Goro
    Oh, come on. You should keep working
    with us, even after getting married.
[01:12] Taro
    Hell no.
[01:14] Jiro
    And where is this date, exactly?
[01:17] Taro
    Check it out!
SIGN    Tomeo and

[01:19] Jiro

[01:21] Goro
    Oh, that's the show featuring
    the superstar of stage,
[01:25] Goro
    Hananosuke, in the leading role.
[01:27] Taro
    Exactly!
[01:29] Taro
    Nancy said Leah's hobby is going to plays,
    so this is the perfect date.
[01:34] Taro
    Oh, did I just call her Leah?!
[01:37] Taro
    "Leah..."
[01:38] Taro
    "Taro!"
[01:39] Taro
    "Leah."
[01:40] Taro
    "Taro!"
[01:41] Taro
    Can you imagine?!
[01:44] Taro
    That being the case, I got a show to catch!
[01:55] Goro
    He certainly seems happy.
[01:57] Jiro
    I hope this date falls apart.

    You understand, yes?

[04:28] Goro
    Rather strange, really...
[04:31] Goro
    It seems to be a completely different
    material than when I first saw it.
[04:37] Goro
    And that duo...
[04:40] Goro
    Wait, that logo!
[04:46] Goro
    I knew I had seen it before!
[04:48] Goro
    It's Edward Chi's!
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
    Jiro! The duo from before...
[04:54] Jiro
    Stupid Taro. I hope your date stinks.
[04:56] Goro
    U-Uh, Jiro?
[04:57] Jiro
    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...
[05:33] Jiro
    Phone's ringing.
[05:35] Taro
    What's keeping her?
[05:38] Taro
    The show's gonna start...
[05:40] Jiro
    The one waited upon never came!
[05:45] Taro
    Aw, dammit...
[05:48] Taro
    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
    I will never be Tomeo
[07:31] Jiro
    Huh? Is this a musical?
[07:31] Hananosuke
    Tomeo, no more
[07:34] Taro
    Ugh... Th-That dude...
[07:37] Tomeo
    I would become anything
    to be with the woman I love
[07:38] Taro
    ...is trouble!
[07:41] Jiro
    Taro?
[07:43] Audience 1
    See! It happened again.
[07:45] Audience 2
    Hananosuke is ruining everything again.
[07:50] Hananosuke
    What light through yonder window breaks?
[07:53] Hananosuke
    It is the East,
[07:55] Hananosuke
    and Omelette is
[07:59] Hananosuke
    The shining sun!
[08:01] Crowd
    What a mess of a production.
[08:03] Crowd
    So awful. Maybe I should stop being his fan.
[08:06] Jiro
    I didn't understand a lick of that show.
[08:10] Taro
    Seriously, none of it sank in.
[08:13] Jiro
    That'd be because you passed out, Taro.
[08:16] Audience 3
    Hananosuke couldn't get it together again.
[08:19] Audience 4
    He was such a serious,
    talented performer before.
[08:23] Taro
    Come on, let's head back.
[08:27] Catherine
    Hi!
[08:29] Taro
    Huh? Catherine?
[08:31] Jiro
    What gives?
[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.
[09:02] Taro
    I actually didn't catch most of it.
[09:04] Catherine
    Regardless, something is going on.
[09:07] Catherine
    I want you to start digging, in depth,
    and write something impressive.
[09:10] Catherine
    Anyway, I've got things to do.
[09:12] Taro
    Great, she dumped something on us, as usual.
[09:15] Jiro
    Well, we should check it out for now!

    Excuse us.
[09:36] Taro
    Crap, crap, crap!
[09:38] Taro
    I can't deal with this guy!
[09:41] Goro
    That was Taro!
[09:44] Jiro
    Huh? What're you doing here?
[09:45] Goro
    The chief asked me
    to join in on the interview.
[09:51] Jiro
    So you can't control when it happens?
[09:54] Hananosuke
    That's right.
[09:56] Hananosuke
    Once the feeling comes over me,
    I have no idea what's happening...
[10:00] Hananosuke
    Like something is controlling me, almost.
[10:03] Jiro
    Like possession...?
[10:05] Goro
    When did you start experiencing this?
[10:07] Hananosuke
    I think it was around three weeks ago.
[10:10] Goro
    Can you think of a potential
    cause? Anything at all?
[10:16] Hananosuke
    Well...
[10:17] Hananosuke
    No, not really.
[10:21] Jiro
    And it only happens when you're on stage?
[10:23] Hananosuke
    No. Actually...
[10:27] Hananosuke
    Can I get a coffee?
[10:29] Clerk
    How do you like it?
[10:31] Hananosuke
    Like?
[10:33] Hananosuke
    Love!
[10:35] Hananosuke
    I love a coffee that is rich
[10:39] Hananosuke
    Rich coffee, all for me
[10:41] Hananosuke
    Coffee...
[10:46] Hananosuke
    Oh, a pond full of koi.
[10:48] Hananosuke
    Koi!

    Such rich, colorful koi-lors

    Love?!
[11:03] Hananosuke
    I love, I love L-O-V-E...
[11:08] Jiro
    Are you noticing any kind of pattern here?
[11:11] Hananosuke
    Lovely, love-loo, love-lalalah!
[11:12] Goro
    I can say one thing... it's over-scientific!
[11:17] Jiro
    Don't change the subject.

[11:31] Taro
    What happened to Leah?!
[11:33] Taro
    I need some kind of reason! Come on!
[11:36] Nancy
    Couldn't tell you. But she said
    she was done trying to find someone,
[11:41] Nancy
    which includes you and anybody else.
[11:43] Taro
    She quit?!
[11:45] Taro
    I mean, finding a special someone
    definitely requires patience.
[11:49] Taro
    But if that's the case, I should
    probably encourage her.
[11:53] Nancy
    Well, she also might have found
    someone on her own.
[11:56] Taro
    What?!
[11:57] Nancy
    Anyway, when a client cancels
    our service, we don't question it.
[12:03] Nancy
    You'll have to give up
    and wait for another match.
[12:05] Taro
    Aw, but when will that be?!
[12:08] Nancy
    You'd probably be swimming in matches
    if you made more money.
[12:17] Taro
    Aw, man...
[12:18] Taro
    "If you made more money," my butt!
    A marriage is supposed to be about love!
[12:22] Taro
    So where did the love go, huh?!

    Wanting to get married so you can
    take it easy without working...
[12:28] Jiro
    You're not exactly the model
    of romance yourself, Taro.
[12:31] Taro
    It's not like that!
[12:33] Taro
    I just want to support a partner
    who works hard with my love!
[12:38] Taro
    But nobody gets it!
[12:40] Taro
    I can't believe we broke up already...
[12:42] Jiro
    You can't break up
    without getting together first.
[12:46] Goro
    Breaking up?
[12:47] Goro
    That reminds me!
[12:51] Jiro
    You read tabloids?
[12:53] Goro
    Not normally, but when I was

SIGN    Scoop: Hananosuke's Breakup!
    A tragic end after ten years together
[13:04] Goro
    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!

    Dammit!
[15:56] Noin
    How far is this dog going to chase me?!

    Call upon me, and henceforth,
    I will always be Tomeo!

    Give it a rest!
[16:11] Perch
    Pass it here, Noin!

    Look at that!

    It's my bag!

    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!

    Return my bag!

    They've all started singing.

    This might be our chance, Noin.

[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.
