"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[00:17] ---**
*I am the one!*
**[00:20] ---**
*Push on ahead as you like, yeah*
**[00:24] ---**
*Oh, listen closely to me*
**[00:28] ---**
*and speak the name
of the desert god*
**[00:32] ---**
*Clench your teeth*
**[00:36] ---**
*When your heart starts
to tremble with heat...*
**[00:40] ---**
*Stop it! It'll only
bring destruction*
**[00:46] ---**
*Let's do it, oh, angel*
**[00:50] ---**
*Now is the time to
stand up and be strong*
**[00:55] ---**
*A sad history, a
hidden big story*
**[00:59] ---**
*That's the mystery*
**[01:02] ---**
*There's nothing certain
about what tomorrow holds*
**[01:10] ---**
*so living through this moment*
**[01:15] ---**
*is my mission alone*
**[01:39] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert.
**[01:42] ---**
The temperature exceeds 50
degrees Celsius in the afternoon,
**[01:46] ---**
and plummets below freezing at night.
**[01:51] ---**
Here lie the ruins of a
civilization whose transgressions
**[01:53] ---**
brought about its downfall centuries prior.
**[01:57] ---**
One could even say that they are
grave-posts for those who died here.
**[02:07] ---**
As for their surviving descendants...
**[02:22] ---**
...they clearly haven't
learned a damn thing.
**[02:27] ---**
"Ghost and Boobies"
**[02:34] ---**
Honey...!
**[02:35] ---**
Hurry up! We're dead meat if they catch us!
**[02:38] ---**
Are you all right, Namiko?!
**[02:40] ---**
Mommy... I'm hungry...!
**[02:44] ---**
This isn't the time for that...!
**[02:52] ---**
Honey...!
**[02:53] ---**
Whoa!
**[02:55] ---**
You ain't goin' nowhere!
**[02:58] ---**
No! Stop!
**[03:01] ---**
Let Mommy go...!
**[03:10] ---**
Namiko...!
**[03:13] ---**
Ain't no escape now...!
**[03:15] ---**
Leave everything ya got on the ground!
**[03:18] ---**
Not like it matters, we're
gonna rob your corpses anyway!
**[03:27] ---**
Oh no! I'm going to be raped!
**[03:35] ---**
Damn woman, gettin' our hopes up...!
**[03:39] ---**
Who'd ever want you?!
**[03:41] ---**
Damn you!
**[03:45] ---**
Hey, you from the Kawazu Clan?
**[03:57] ---**
What the...?
**[03:58] ---**
You're a puny li'l runt...!
**[04:01] ---**
You the guys who attacked
the oasis transport trucks
**[04:04] ---**
at Water Station ♪45 three days ago?
**[04:17] ---**
And what if...
**[04:18] ---**
...we are?!
**[04:20] ---**
What if we are?!
**[04:21] ---**
What if we are?!
**[04:23] ---**
I've been hired to retrieve
someone's treasure from you.
**[04:28] ---**
Just so ya know, if you're a
government official then you're dead!
**[04:33] ---**
And you're dead if you're a bounty hunter!
**[04:35] ---**
Let's just say you're dead anyways!
**[04:49] ---**
No government official would ever
come somewhere this dangerous.
**[04:53] ---**
And all bounty hunters do
is bully weaker people.
**[04:56] ---**
Though it's thanks to them
that jobs come my way...
**[05:03] ---**
If you tell me where your
dumbass boss is, I'll let you go.
**[05:13] ---**
Did I make you mad?
**[05:15] ---**
What a pain...
**[05:23] ---**
Think we wasted too much ammo?!
**[05:26] ---**
Look up there!
**[05:31] ---**
W-w-what?! He's flying!
**[05:34] ---**
Is he a ghost?!
**[05:35] ---**
Wait, a ghost...?!
**[05:39] ---**
The "Ghost of the Desert"...?
**[05:53] ---**
Huh...?
**[06:00] ---**
What the hell did you do to us...?
**[06:07] ---**
Tasteless, odorless, and colorless!
**[06:09] ---**
Super instant paralysis spray!
Works good, huh?
**[06:16] ---**
That ain't fair...
**[06:19] ---**
I'm known far and wide for
always carrying out my jobs.
**[06:23] ---**
I don't want to lose that reputation...
**[06:26] ---**
...so I'll do anything.
**[06:29] ---**
Now tell me where your hideout is!
**[06:31] ---**
--Take this! And this!
**[06:31] ---**
--You're so mean!
**[06:39] ---**
57, 58, 59, 60...
**[06:43] ---**
Well, then.
**[06:45] ---**
You sure were lucky to be
saved for only 200,000 a head.
**[06:50] ---**
See ya.
**[06:54] ---**
Honey...!
**[06:57] ---**
Forgive me for being so weak...!
**[07:01] ---**
I can't say no to a ghost...!
**[07:05] ---**
Honey...!
**[07:13] ---**
Eh? Masami's group is missing?
**[07:17] ---**
We can't get 'em on the radio, either...
**[07:19] ---**
They were supposed to be
in charge of West 33 today...
**[07:28] ---**
They're probably off
having "fun" elsewhere.
**[07:31] ---**
Well, they can just forget about
their after-dinner pudding!
**[07:35] ---**
Yessir! I'll give them a talking to!
**[07:38] ---**
No pudding, no pudding...!
**[07:39] ---**
No pudding, no pudding...!
**[07:41] ---**
I will eat their pudding.
**[07:44] ---**
"Kawazu Clan Boss -
Kawazu Makoto, Age 37"
**[07:46] ---**
Pudding, pudding! My dear pudding!
**[07:49] ---**
Yummy!
**[07:54] ---**
Bad news!
**[07:56] ---**
What's wrong?!
**[07:57] ---**
There was a letter at the entrance...!
**[07:59] ---**
It's a letter from the Sunabouzu!
**[08:08] ---**
Sunabouzu?
**[08:10] ---**
That handyman who's been
crushing various clans lately
**[08:14] ---**
with his strange "magic"?
**[08:17] ---**
Sounds interesting. Read it.
**[08:19] ---**
Yes, sir...!
**[08:21] ---**
"Dear Loser Kawazu Boss..."
**[08:24] ---**
"I've come for your head. Fight me!"
**[08:27] ---**
"There's no point running,
'cause I'm gonna kill your sorry ass."
**[08:32] ---**
"I also took care of your
three loser henchmen."
**[08:34] ---**
"See you soon, Idiot Boss
of the Moron Clan."
**[08:40] ---**
Eep...
**[08:43] ---**
Whoa, even after all that trash talk...
**[08:47] ---**
...he's not upset one bit...
**[08:50] ---**
Talk about cool...
**[08:52] ---**
That's our boss...!
**[08:55] ---**
"P.S. Your mommy has an outie!"
**[08:59] ---**
Mommy does not have an outie...!
**[09:05] ---**
The boss is mad!
**[09:07] ---**
His Hulkosis...!
**[09:08] ---**
Run...!
**[09:28] ---**
None of my business.
**[09:35] ---**
Fine, whatever.
**[09:38] ---**
Ok, now...!
**[09:43] ---**
A babe!
**[09:46] ---**
With boobs!
**[09:50] ---**
Are you all right, Miss?! Allow me to--
**[09:59] ---**
Aah!
**[10:12] ---**
"Handy"
**[10:16] ---**
I'm sorry. I thought you were a bandit...
**[10:27] ---**
B-but what are you doing out here...?
**[10:30] ---**
In those sexy, I mean, light clothes,
**[10:34] ---**
you'll develop heatstroke and
blisters in half a day...!
**[10:39] ---**
Actually... I'm...!
**[10:44] ---**
I'm...!
**[10:49] ---**
Please save me!
**[10:52] ---**
Save you? From what...?
**[10:55] ---**
That awful, vicious Kawazu
Clan forced me to go with them,
**[11:00] ---**
but I just managed to escape...!
**[11:03] ---**
Hey, there!
**[11:05] ---**
Forced?!
**[11:07] ---**
Their boss told me I was going to
make pudding for the rest of my life
**[11:11] ---**
in his mom's place...
**[11:13] ---**
Isn't that just horrible?
**[11:16] ---**
--Forced? To do what, exactly...?!
**[11:17] ---**
--But I guess I'm just too cute, so...
**[11:20] ---**
Please! You're my only hope!
**[11:24] ---**
Don't cry, Milady.
**[11:27] ---**
I, too, have some business
with the Kawazu Clan.
**[11:30] ---**
Once I'm done, I shall
accompany you to an oasis.
**[11:36] ---**
Come to think of it, they did
say they lost some guards...
**[11:40] ---**
Does that mean you're--
**[11:42] ---**
Damn, I've been found out...
**[11:49] ---**
What's wrong, Madam?!
**[11:51] ---**
I suddenly feel weak
now that I feel safe...
**[11:57] ---**
This girl desperately
needs me right now...!
**[12:03] ---**
She completely depends on me!
**[12:06] ---**
She can't live without me...!
**[12:09] ---**
You're gonna pay, Kawazu Clan...!
**[12:18] ---**
By the way, is the Kawazu
hideout around here?
**[12:23] ---**
Right over there.
**[12:24] ---**
"Signpost"
**[12:26] ---**
Whoa. Now that's obvious...
**[12:30] ---**
Yes...
**[12:41] ---**
There ain't anything here...
**[12:45] ---**
That's the Sunabouzu?
**[12:47] ---**
Pretty puny if you ask me...
**[12:49] ---**
You idiot! Don't let your guard down!
He's the Ghost of the Desert!
**[12:55] ---**
What're you so scared about?
**[12:57] ---**
I'll take him down with one shot...!
**[13:00] ---**
Huh?! He's looking this way!
**[13:02] ---**
You moron! Just shoot already!
**[13:13] ---**
That ain't ordinary shotgun ammo!
**[13:16] ---**
Them's grenades!
**[13:19] ---**
These bums are 100 years
too early to ambush me
**[13:23] ---**
without any real equipment!
**[13:30] ---**
Don't let him escape! Fire! Fire!
**[13:38] ---**
Take this! And this! And this!
**[13:43] ---**
Crap!
**[13:45] ---**
Fire! Fire!
**[13:52] ---**
Whew, I'm pooped...
**[13:54] ---**
Now what? I used too much ammo...
**[13:57] ---**
Oh well, I can just add it to the bill...!
**[14:07] ---**
You guys're annoying! Eat this!
**[14:10] ---**
There's only one of him! Get him!
**[14:17] ---**
Crap... I better retreat for now...!
**[14:22] ---**
The dumbass ran in there!
**[14:25] ---**
Trap him like a rat!
**[14:30] ---**
What's that...?!
**[14:32] ---**
Crap!
**[14:37] ---**
Morons!
**[14:38] ---**
Pretty good!
**[14:42] ---**
But not as good as the
rumors say, Sunabouzu!
**[14:46] ---**
You're one helluva moron to call
us out here and fall into our trap!
**[14:54] ---**
That's one ugly mug...!
**[14:56] ---**
He must lead a tough life. Hulkosis, huh...
**[15:01] ---**
Called you out here?!
**[15:04] ---**
You the Kawazu Boss?
**[15:06] ---**
Indeed!
**[15:08] ---**
I came to get the treasure
around your neck,
**[15:11] ---**
but I've suddenly decided to
crush the lot of you as well.
**[15:15] ---**
Are you insane?! How do you expect
to get outta this situation?!
**[15:19] ---**
Just go ahead and try it!
**[15:21] ---**
How dare you kill Masami and the others!
**[15:24] ---**
Don't expect to die peacefully!
**[15:27] ---**
That three-man squad? I didn't kill 'em.
**[15:30] ---**
I tied 'em up and tossed
'em in some building.
**[15:36] ---**
Mommy does not have an outie!
**[15:39] ---**
Huh?!
**[15:40] ---**
Bastard! Trying to play dumb?!
**[15:44] ---**
You can't lie after sending
that letter, dumbass!
**[15:47] ---**
Dumbass? I got no idea what
you're talking about...!
**[15:52] ---**
I've had enough of this...!
**[15:57] ---**
A smokescreen!
**[15:58] ---**
Kill him!
**[16:09] ---**
Alright! That's enough.
Bring his carcass here.
**[16:15] ---**
Huh...?
**[16:18] ---**
He ain't anywhere!
**[16:20] ---**
Look harder!
**[16:22] ---**
He got blasted to smithereens.
**[16:28] ---**
Damn...!
**[16:31] ---**
Look up there!
**[16:34] ---**
The dude's flying!
**[16:37] ---**
He is a ghost!
**[16:40] ---**
There's more of him!
**[16:41] ---**
Ghosts!
**[16:42] ---**
There are no such things as ghosts!
**[17:07] ---**
Blew him clean away!
**[17:10] ---**
What's that?!
**[17:32] ---**
Boss! Look!
**[17:34] ---**
Your mommy has an outie!
Your mommy has an outie!
**[17:47] ---**
My--
**[17:48] ---**
My mommy does not have an outie!
**[17:56] ---**
Your mommy has an outie!
**[17:58] ---**
She does not --
**[17:59] ---**
Your mommy has an outie!
**[18:00] ---**
--have an outie!
**[18:02] ---**
Your mommy has an outie!
**[18:03] ---**
You got that?!
**[18:04] ---**
Your mommy has an outie!
**[18:06] ---**
Damn you! Damn you! Damn you!
**[18:11] ---**
Damn you! Damn you! You got that?!
So shut the hell up!
**[18:40] ---**
Do you know why they call me the Sunabouzu?
**[18:45] ---**
Mommy does not have an outie...
**[18:58] ---**
A balloon...?
**[19:20] ---**
The boss...!
**[19:22] ---**
He lost...!
**[19:25] ---**
How did he fly like that...?
**[19:27] ---**
That was spooky...
**[19:28] ---**
No human can do that...!
**[19:31] ---**
He's a ghost!
**[19:32] ---**
The Ghost of the Desert - the Sunabouzu!
**[19:40] ---**
Piece of cake--
**[19:58] ---**
Huh? Oh, Boobie Lady...!
**[20:02] ---**
You're pretty good! I got a nice,
good look at how you work!
**[20:07] ---**
You're too kind...!
**[20:10] ---**
I'm here to get this too, you see.
**[20:12] ---**
Eh?!
**[20:13] ---**
My client is the same as yours, of course.
**[20:16] ---**
It's nothing that great, but I
guess it's really important to him
**[20:22] ---**
because he's been throwing lots
of money around to get it back!
**[20:28] ---**
Don't tell me that huge explosion was--
**[20:33] ---**
Yep. That was me.
**[20:37] ---**
I figured having the famous
Sunabouzu-san and the Kawazu Clan
**[20:40] ---**
stamp each other out first
would be the easiest way...
**[20:47] ---**
I'm Asagiri Junko.
I'll do anything for money.
**[20:52] ---**
Hey, wait...!
**[20:55] ---**
I expect to be your rival from
now on, so I'll see you around!
**[21:13] ---**
Don't tell me I've been tricked...?!
**[21:17] ---**
Not me...!
**[21:19] ---**
That's so totally uncool...!
**[21:22] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert.
**[21:25] ---**
In this hellish desert, man,
the most violent and powerful creature
**[21:31] ---**
in the history of the earth...
**[21:36] ---**
Asagiri Junko! Just you watch!
I will get it back...!
**[21:44] ---**
You will pay for crushing
a man's pure heart!
**[21:49] ---**
Don't think you've won!
**[21:51] ---**
I'm known far and wide for
always carrying out my jobs!
**[21:59] ---**
...continues to thrive to this
day, bursting with avarice.
**[22:09] ---**
Wonder what I should do
when I catch that wench...?!
**[22:13] ---**
I could do all kinds of things
with those humongous boobies...!
**[22:20] ---**
I'm coming for you!
**[22:22] ---**
Seriously, those were huge...!
**[22:38] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:46] ---**
*One more big circle...*
**[22:50] ---**
*A billowing raincoat...
(It's a cape!)*
**[22:54] ---**
*Oh, let's not forget
the sunshade now...*
**[22:59] ---**
*(His heart is pitch black!
His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:05] ---**
*Give him a Winchester and
suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*
**[23:21] ---**
*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*
**[23:24] ---**
*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*
**[23:28] ---**
*He'll go forth again tomorrow!
(Go forth again)*
**[23:32] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:34] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:36] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady!)*
**[23:38] ---**
**[23:56] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabouzu here!
**[23:58] ---**
Next episode's boob lady is awesome!
**[24:00] ---**
Hey! My mom is no boob lady!
**[24:05] ---**
On the next Sunabouzu -
Sand and Rain
**[24:07] ---**
Miss it and you're dead meat!

Noriko. Let's stop at the next village...
**[01:55] ---**
I'm fine.
**[01:59] ---**
I'm sorry I'm such a burden...
**[02:08] ---**
Dad...!
**[02:11] ---**
Are you alright, Dad?!
**[02:15] ---**
I'm truly sorry... I... I...!
**[02:21] ---**
You know you're not supposed to say it.

Centuries after the collapse
of modern civilization...
**[02:51] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert...
**[02:54] ---**
In this world of survival of the fittest...
**[02:58] ---**
...the victor is right.
**[03:02] ---**
And the victor of this fight
is known and feared as a ghost.
**[03:09] ---**
The Handyman of the Desert. His name...

And...
**[03:19] ---**
...this...

I shot yet another trifling thing.
**[03:36] ---**
I'm so hilarious!
**[03:39] ---**
Don't tell me you're...!
**[03:49] ---**
It's a piece of cake when
there's no chicks involved...
**[03:56] ---**
But those were some mighty good boobs...!
**[04:01] ---**
No!
**[04:02] ---**
I must never work with broads!
I must ignore them!
**[04:08] ---**
Especially ones with giant breasts!

From now on, it's only
innocent and lovely--
**[04:15] ---**
Hands up, jerk!
**[04:18] ---**
But slowly!
**[04:20] ---**
You scared or somethin'?!
**[04:23] ---**
Just make with the hands!
**[04:25] ---**
"Repo Man - Amagumo"
**[04:28] ---**
He can't even talk, Bro!
**[04:33] ---**
You're all show! Now hand over yer money!
**[04:37] ---**
They're goners...
**[04:39] ---**
He's like the greatest repo man there is!
**[04:42] ---**
They say when his hands move,
**[04:44] ---**
he collects not just money,
but souls too...!
**[04:49] ---**
So you want me to take my hands out?
**[04:52] ---**
Yeah...!
**[04:54] ---**
Just do what we say and we won't kill ya...
**[05:07] ---**
Ouch...!
**[05:08] ---**
What the hell is this?!
**[05:12] ---**
Thread...? Damn you...!
**[05:17] ---**
I took my hands out. What should I do next?
**[05:32] ---**
--Ow, ow!
**[05:33] ---**
--Ow, ow!
**[05:34] ---**
Kill us!
**[05:36] ---**
We can't go back to town
like this, you brute!
**[05:40] ---**
Yeah! We'd never hear the end of it!
**[05:43] ---**
We'd rather die!
**[05:45] ---**
Is that so?
**[05:48] ---**
Just kidding!
**[05:50] ---**
We'll buy some undies!
**[05:51] ---**
They're no fun...
**[05:52] ---**
How uncool...
**[05:56] ---**
So, collecting souls means
tearing people's pride to shreds?
**[06:01] ---**
I consider it reimbursement.
**[06:03] ---**
So it was the famous Sunabouzu
who was spying on me, huh?
**[06:08] ---**
Oh, you noticed? Pretty slick, Amagumo!
**[06:12] ---**
We've never met before, though...
**[06:14] ---**
The Sunabouzu is the talk of
the Kanto region somewhat...
**[06:21] ---**
I got a look at how you work
**[06:24] ---**
and at how skilled the ♪1 repo man
in the tiny Kanto area really is!
**[06:29] ---**
How I'd love to see the
clever techniques of the guy
**[06:33] ---**
who bullies people
to make a name for himself.
**[06:35] ---**
Who knows, you just might be
able to experience 'em firsthand!
**[06:45] ---**
Hey!
**[06:46] ---**
One of these days. I have
pressing business to attend to.
**[06:50] ---**
That's too bad!
**[06:53] ---**
Ran into a creep first
thing in the morning...
**[06:55] ---**
Today's not my lucky day.
**[07:05] ---**
My, that was fast.
**[07:08] ---**
So what's my next job?
**[07:08] ---**
"Handyman Guild - Mugenya"
**[07:11] ---**
Just a minute...
**[07:19] ---**
Mommy, I'm hungry...!
**[07:22] ---**
Here we are. Water Station ♪22.
**[07:25] ---**
A Koike Kazuo-san lives there,
**[07:29] ---**
and Akashio Financial wants someone
to collect on his unpaid loan.
**[07:37] ---**
Let's see... 29-3...
**[07:40] ---**
29-3... Is this it?
**[07:45] ---**
Talk about ghetto...
**[07:48] ---**
Hello! Is Koike Kazuo-san home?
**[07:56] ---**
Oh?
**[08:01] ---**
Koike-san is an acquaintance of yours?
**[08:05] ---**
I have no acquaintance this
incredibly stupid or poor.
**[08:10] ---**
But if a repo man like you
is here, does that mean--
**[08:15] ---**
I'm obviously here to collect on a debt!
**[08:18] ---**
Koike-san borrowed money from
Oshio Financial in the South Oasis
**[08:22] ---**
and today's the repayment due date...
**[08:26] ---**
Unfortunately, I'm told he
doesn't have a single cent...
**[08:30] ---**
Damn, this isn't looking good...
**[08:33] ---**
Incidentally, what's a handyman doing here?
**[08:39] ---**
Hold on, you old fart!
**[08:40] ---**
You swindled money
from two places at once?!
**[08:44] ---**
Give back the money you
borrowed from Akashio!
**[08:47] ---**
"I.O.U."
**[08:48] ---**
What...?!
**[08:50] ---**
He owes Akashio today, too!
**[08:52] ---**
You got some guts making
both repayment days the same!
**[08:58] ---**
Hand it over! Hand it over right now!
**[09:00] ---**
Hey! Hold on! I was here first!
**[09:03] ---**
So what?! First one to get repaid wins!
**[09:06] ---**
--What?!
**[09:06] ---**
--Damn you...!
**[09:08] ---**
Just give up and go home!
**[09:09] ---**
You know I can't do that!
**[09:11] ---**
Why're you ransacking the house?!
**[09:13] ---**
It's finders-keepers!
**[09:27] ---**
There's not a damn thing there!
**[09:29] ---**
And the place reeks like mad!
**[09:34] ---**
I'm sorry. In my condition,
I can't even work enough to--
**[09:40] ---**
Koike-san.
**[09:43] ---**
Do you know how people can
make a living lending money
**[09:48] ---**
in this lawless region?
**[09:49] ---**
No...
**[09:50] ---**
Because no matter the obstacles,
no matter how much they resist,
**[09:55] ---**
we hunt down creditors
and capture them alive.
**[09:59] ---**
Yes, it's because there are
professional repo men like us around.
**[10:07] ---**
And we use any means necessary
to always get the money repaid.
**[10:13] ---**
I'm known far and wide for
always carrying out my jobs!
**[10:16] ---**
And I don't show mercy
to sick, old geezers!
**[10:20] ---**
Dad...!
**[10:24] ---**
A babe! A little dusty, though...
**[10:27] ---**
What are you doing to my father?!
**[10:33] ---**
I see. So you were working in
place of your sick father...
**[10:39] ---**
I'm sorry. I knew today was the due date...
**[10:43] ---**
But wasn't that clearly too much
money for a woman to work off?
**[10:49] ---**
Yes. I worked myself to the bone, but...
**[10:56] ---**
Just when I found a job
at a printing plant,
**[10:59] ---**
its owner was murdered by bandits...
**[11:02] ---**
Get lost!
**[11:04] ---**
...and I never got paid...
**[11:08] ---**
And my job of hauling things...
**[11:11] ---**
As a girl, I couldn't keep at it long...!
**[11:16] ---**
And the side job I finally found...
**[11:25] ---**
I'm just so clumsy...!
**[11:31] ---**
Forgive me, Noriko. I'm so worthless...
**[11:37] ---**
Are you alright, Dad?!
**[11:39] ---**
It's not your fault; that
stupid illness is to blame!
**[11:43] ---**
No, I've burdened everyone...
Even your mother...
**[11:47] ---**
Oh, Dad... You know you're
not supposed to say it.
**[11:53] ---**
Noriko...!
**[11:58] ---**
Don't worry! Let's work hard together!
**[12:03] ---**
Oh, dear. Not in front of company, Dad...
**[12:08] ---**
Um...
**[12:10] ---**
I could maybe convince Akashio...
**[12:14] ---**
Eh?!
**[12:16] ---**
...to wait 10 days or so...
**[12:20] ---**
Really...?!
**[12:22] ---**
M-maybe...
**[12:29] ---**
What?!
**[12:30] ---**
Nothing...
**[12:32] ---**
Liar!
**[12:32] ---**
I know you're thinking, "What a
softy," or, "He fell for her charm!"
**[12:38] ---**
But what else is there? Tearing
this place up won't get us anything!
**[12:43] ---**
I wouldn't be so sure.
**[12:45] ---**
No!
**[12:47] ---**
There's always her!
**[12:49] ---**
Noriko...!
**[12:50] ---**
What the hell're you
doing with Noriko-san?!
**[12:55] ---**
Are you all right, Dad?!
**[12:57] ---**
Eh?
**[12:58] ---**
Even if she is poor and covered in dirt,
**[13:01] ---**
she has beauty worthy of
a gentle and pure heart!
**[13:05] ---**
I bet I could get a lot for her!
**[13:08] ---**
Oh, good thinking!
**[13:11] ---**
Wait, no! Don't you have
any blood or tears?!
**[13:16] ---**
Nope.
**[13:17] ---**
So how do you plan to get money
out of this penniless family?
**[13:23] ---**
As you said, there's not a thing here.
**[13:26] ---**
This girl is the only thing worth money.
**[13:29] ---**
How do you plan to collect on
their debt without selling her?
**[13:33] ---**
Aren't you known far and wide for
always carrying out your jobs?
**[13:44] ---**
I got it!
**[13:45] ---**
We'll sell Noriko-san!
**[13:47] ---**
But!
**[13:48] ---**
I'm the one buyin' her!
**[13:53] ---**
Therefore, I'll only pay off
their loan with Akashio.
**[13:57] ---**
You and the old fart can do
something about the southern one!
**[14:02] ---**
What an idiot. Looks like
talking this out...
**[14:05] ---**
...is a waste of time!
**[14:10] ---**
The winner gets Noriko-san!
**[14:12] ---**
The loser thinks up another way
to collect on their debt! Agreed?!
**[14:17] ---**
Assuming the loser survives.
**[14:18] ---**
Another thing -
**[14:20] ---**
I won't let Noriko-san become
a victim of your unsavory hobbies!
**[14:24] ---**
I'd appreciate you not badmouthing
other people's hobbies.
**[14:28] ---**
What's goin' on?!
**[14:29] ---**
This don't look so good!
**[14:31] ---**
It's a duel! Supposedly between
the Amagumo and Sunabouzu!
**[14:36] ---**
Eh?!
**[14:37] ---**
I sure hope that ain't true!
**[14:40] ---**
Seems they're fighting
over Koike-san's girl!
**[14:45] ---**
A ghost and a god of death...
**[14:47] ---**
Elder...?!
**[14:49] ---**
Why are you here?!
**[14:50] ---**
They must not be allowed to fight!
**[14:52] ---**
The village will be blown away if they do!
**[15:01] ---**
He appears out of nowhere
**[15:07] ---**
and leaves unbeknownst to anyone
**[15:12] ---**
He flies in the sky, burrows in the earth
**[15:15] ---**
confuses and insults people
**[15:18] ---**
to accomplish all his jobs
**[15:25] ---**
The Ghost of the Desert - Sunabouzu!
**[15:30] ---**
Sunabouzu! Sunabouzu!
**[15:42] ---**
Elder...! Who's--
**[15:44] ---**
Say no more.
**[15:51] ---**
In spite of the dust storms,
he doesn't let his prey escape
**[15:59] ---**
He catches fleeing debtors
**[16:02] ---**
Every last one a soulless, pitiable
**[16:08] ---**
and disabled piece of garbage
**[16:15] ---**
He's a true god of death
**[16:18] ---**
A repo man!
**[16:32] ---**
You seem to be quite popular.
**[16:36] ---**
As do you.
**[16:38] ---**
His skills are the real deal.
**[16:40] ---**
But he basically relies on gadgets like me.
**[16:44] ---**
Tricks meant for idiots
won't work on him...!
**[16:48] ---**
His mind is addled, but he
must be famous for a reason.
**[16:53] ---**
Plus, he's seen my tricks...
**[16:57] ---**
This could turn into one helluva fight...!
**[17:50] ---**
What is this?
**[17:54] ---**
It's just an ordinary shootout...
**[17:59] ---**
I tried too hard to anticipate
how he'd attack!
**[18:02] ---**
To think this would be such a
degrading war of attrition...!
**[18:05] ---**
Dammit! What a waste of ammo!
**[18:10] ---**
Honey! You know you shouldn't wander about!
**[18:16] ---**
Yoko-san. When is today's lunch?
**[18:19] ---**
You just ate! Now come on home!
**[18:26] ---**
Where the hell did you get that gun?!
**[18:28] ---**
Where were you hiding yours?!
**[18:31] ---**
Eat this!
**[18:32] ---**
Oh, crap!
**[18:35] ---**
Payback!
**[18:40] ---**
Out of ammo and resorting to pistols...
This is getting too lame!
**[18:51] ---**
Die, punk!
**[18:52] ---**
I'm gonna tear you a new one!
**[18:58] ---**
Damn you! Give up already!
**[19:00] ---**
I've had just about enough of you!
**[19:02] ---**
Noriko-san is mine!
**[19:04] ---**
Die, you lowlife perv!
**[19:08] ---**
Ow! Damn you! I ain't gonna fall
victim to your perversions, either!
**[19:11] ---**
It's almost suppertime.
**[19:13] ---**
Let's go.
**[19:14] ---**
How lame...
**[19:33] ---**
Amagumo-san... Your punches
ain't so strong now...
**[19:37] ---**
Ha! You can't even stand up straight!
**[19:56] ---**
Finally found ya, Amagumo!
**[19:58] ---**
--Time to pay for this morning...!
**[19:59] ---**
--Finally found ya, Sunabouzu!
**[20:01] ---**
Time to pay for this morning...!
**[20:04] ---**
Time to pay!
**[20:14] ---**
Ouch!
**[20:15] ---**
What happened, Bro?
**[20:45] ---**
Amagumo... You're pretty good...!
**[20:48] ---**
You too, Sunabouzu...!
**[20:54] ---**
A short break and then we'll continue!
**[20:57] ---**
Yeah...
**[21:07] ---**
Two I.O.U.s, all ours!
**[21:12] ---**
You always make the due date
on the day of Mom's death...!
**[21:19] ---**
But we sure were lucky this time.
**[21:22] ---**
One of them was a lowlife perv,
so they trounced each other!
**[21:29] ---**
Your mother was watching out for us!
**[21:34] ---**
Don't be getting tomato juice
on my clothes again!
**[21:39] ---**
Now that we've burned the
I.O.U.s and gotten out of debt,
**[21:43] ---**
where should we borrow money from next?
**[21:46] ---**
Oh, dear. Just be sure to buy
me some new clothes!
**[21:50] ---**
You know, living really is tough...
**[21:55] ---**
Very tough.
**[22:00] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert.
**[22:01] ---**
In this world of survival of the
fittest, the victor is right.
**[22:07] ---**
The loser is a moron, garbage, and wrong.
**[22:12] ---**
Men, women, old people, idiots, and
scum all live here at full blast.

A 120% fully-accurate reproduction!
**[01:45] ---**
225,000 yen...
**[01:49] ---**
If only I had one of these...!
**[01:52] ---**
Crap! It's a debt collector!
**[01:56] ---**
Hold on. The deadline's still a ways off...
**[01:59] ---**
Who's bothering me this late at--
**[02:01] ---**
Hello!
**[02:03] ---**
These boobs...!
**[02:04] ---**
Asagiri Junko!
**[02:08] ---**
What...?!
**[02:11] ---**
You're a kid!
**[02:13] ---**
"Mizuno Kanta"
**[02:14] ---**
His name is Mizuno Kanta.
**[02:16] ---**
A freelance handyman.
**[02:17] ---**
What's your problem?!
**[02:20] ---**
I just can't believe the great
Sunabouzu is actually a kid!
**[02:25] ---**
Oh, crap! My secret identity...!
**[02:28] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[02:28] ---**
People have recently started
referring to him as the Sunabouzu,
**[02:32] ---**
and he is now a rather popular figure.
**[02:35] ---**
So why are you here?!
**[02:37] ---**
Work. I came to hire you.
**[02:39] ---**
Get lost!
**[02:40] ---**
I know you're up to your
head in debt at the moment.
**[02:44] ---**
How do you know that?!
**[02:47] ---**
"Debt King"
**[02:47] ---**
He screwed up two jobs and wound
up taking on others' debts.
**[02:51] ---**
Women were involved both times.
**[02:54] ---**
I heard from the guild head.
**[02:56] ---**
That old geezer...!
**[02:58] ---**
Forget that; how dare
you use me back then?!
**[03:02] ---**
Quit touching me!
**[03:10] ---**
So supple...!
**[03:14] ---**
That'll cost you 10,000 yen.
**[03:16] ---**
You lost to me. So quit
sulking, it's pathetic!
**[03:21] ---**
So, how much do you owe?
**[03:23] ---**
1,693,452 yen, but...
**[03:29] ---**
--3 million yen.
**[03:30] ---**
--I'll pay you 6 million.
**[03:32] ---**
I'll do it.
**[03:34] ---**
Please allow me to do it.
**[03:44] ---**
So supple...!
**[03:46] ---**
Six million yen...
**[03:48] ---**
I'll pay off my debt and buy an M40...
**[03:52] ---**
What else should I buy?
Maybe I'll put it in savings?
**[03:57] ---**
Oh! So supple!
**[04:07] ---**
That night, Mizuno Kanta had
a very pleasurable dream.
**[04:13] ---**
However...!
**[04:15] ---**
"Tank and Machine Guns"
**[04:22] ---**
Hey, Sunabouzu! Nobody ever
mentioned taking on that monster!
**[04:27] ---**
And that chick is your acquaintance!
This's all your fault!
**[04:32] ---**
Oh, get real! You know you
fell for her charms, too!
**[04:37] ---**
There it is...!
**[04:39] ---**
It's unstoppable!
**[04:41] ---**
They say it streaks through
the desert like lightning
**[04:43] ---**
and scorches those who stand in
its way into a boneless crisp...!
**[04:48] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert's most heavily
armed and armored bank transport truck!
**[04:54] ---**
A killing machine that's returned
from the centuries-old Hell...!
**[05:00] ---**
The Fire Dragon Kong...
**[05:05] ---**
Do you actually think you can
escape, Asagiri Junko-san?
**[05:09] ---**
Those are some rather dependable
bodyguards you've hired...
**[05:15] ---**
Misjudge these four and
you'll be in a world of hurt!
**[05:18] ---**
Nuh uh! Nuh uh! No hurt at all!
**[05:21] ---**
These four are men of the desert
with great hidden potential!
**[05:27] ---**
No we aren't!
**[05:29] ---**
Then show me.
**[05:32] ---**
No...! Don't!
**[05:38] ---**
That get him?!
**[05:40] ---**
You think?
**[05:41] ---**
Ain't no withstanding a 40-millimeter...
**[05:43] ---**
What're you doing?!
**[05:45] ---**
Start running already!
**[05:56] ---**
It's no use running.
**[05:58] ---**
Do you intend on never
handing the key over?
**[06:01] ---**
That's not why I'm running
all over the place!
**[06:04] ---**
Key...?!
**[06:04] ---**
"Handyman"
**[06:05] ---**
Hey, Haruo!
**[06:06] ---**
What...?!
**[06:09] ---**
Haruo!
**[06:10] ---**
Haruo!
**[06:11] ---**
Damn it!
**[06:12] ---**
Damn you, Sunabouzu!
**[06:16] ---**
What the heck did you do?!
**[06:18] ---**
You must've screwed over someone
big to get the Kong after you!
**[06:22] ---**
Listen! I'm allowed to cancel
contracts for crime-related jobs!
**[06:27] ---**
It's true that he's super rich,
but this is entirely a private dispute.
**[06:33] ---**
Dammit! I'd turn you down
if I weren't in debt...!
**[06:38] ---**
Damn you for showing off
your giant boobies...!
**[06:42] ---**
Eh? What?
**[06:43] ---**
I don't like desert suits or helmets
so I figured I'd go without
**[06:47] ---**
during the morning...
**[06:49] ---**
Liar! You know you showed them on purpose!
**[06:53] ---**
I did not!
**[06:59] ---**
Damn you! How dare you use us as a decoy!
**[07:02] ---**
Don't be dumb!
**[07:03] ---**
If that were the case, I'd have been
long gone instead of here flirting!
**[07:08] ---**
He won't kill us!
**[07:11] ---**
What?!
**[07:11] ---**
We're done for!
**[07:13] ---**
We're so dead!
**[07:15] ---**
Not good! It's just a matter of time!
**[07:19] ---**
No choice...!
**[07:20] ---**
"Light" "Smoke"
**[07:21] ---**
Shut your eyes!
**[07:25] ---**
What the...?!
**[07:26] ---**
An ultra-hot flash bomb
and iron filing smoke bomb!
**[07:29] ---**
It's screwed up all our scanners!
**[07:32] ---**
Huh? It's just a smoke screen...!
**[07:35] ---**
Stop! What are you--
**[07:37] ---**
Where are they?!
**[07:38] ---**
They're gone!
**[07:41] ---**
There they are!
**[07:42] ---**
No! That dried-up well is full of tunnels!
**[07:46] ---**
Don't let 'em down it!
**[07:48] ---**
They went down it.
**[07:49] ---**
Dimwits!
**[07:51] ---**
What the hell? A balloon...?
**[07:54] ---**
There's nobody in the well!
**[07:56] ---**
Come to think of it, that notorious
Sunabouzu was with them...
**[08:00] ---**
We've been fooled.
**[08:01] ---**
After them! To the east!
**[08:03] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[08:18] ---**
They finally left...
**[08:20] ---**
You freaked me out by
suddenly dumping sand on me!
**[08:24] ---**
I couldn't have completely blinded the Kong
**[08:26] ---**
with just one person's
supply of smoke bombs...
**[08:29] ---**
What a lame plan! What if the
Kong had kept sitting there?!
**[08:35] ---**
Dunno.
**[08:38] ---**
Hey, why are we taking a long way?!
**[08:41] ---**
Hovercrafts don't handle
cluttered terrain well.
**[08:46] ---**
Why didn't you tell us up front
we'd be dealing with the Kong?!
**[08:49] ---**
Because you wouldn't have accepted the job!
**[08:51] ---**
Duh!
**[08:53] ---**
Geez... Today's the horrible
sequel to this morning...!
**[08:57] ---**
Six million...!
**[09:00] ---**
You're the Kawaguchi
Machine Gun Brothers...!
**[09:03] ---**
And you're the Sunabouzu!
**[09:05] ---**
What're you doing here?!
**[09:07] ---**
Yeah! Who needs your nasty ol'
face first thing in the morning?!
**[09:11] ---**
That's my line!
**[09:13] ---**
Sorry! Been waiting long?
**[09:15] ---**
That's all right! Just got here--
**[09:19] ---**
Huh?! Don't tell me she hired you, too...?
**[09:22] ---**
Eh?! You too...?!
**[09:23] ---**
We're all friends now!
**[09:25] ---**
Now let's work together and do our best!
**[09:33] ---**
Eh?!
**[09:35] ---**
Damn, this sucks...
**[09:38] ---**
I had no idea you were
childhood friends...!
**[09:42] ---**
B-but, Akio-niichan...!
**[09:45] ---**
Yeah...
**[09:46] ---**
S-so big...
**[09:48] ---**
If only ol' Natsuko could take after her...
**[09:53] ---**
Say, what'd you mean when
you said he won't kill us?
**[09:59] ---**
Isn't it obvious? They said it themselves.
**[10:03] ---**
OK, Junko-san.
**[10:04] ---**
How about you tell us about that
key in your intense cleavage there?
**[10:11] ---**
Those guys want it bad.
So they can't kill us.
**[10:16] ---**
The key'd be toast if they screwed up.
**[10:19] ---**
So out with the details!
**[10:22] ---**
What is that key?
Why is the Kong after you?
**[10:26] ---**
Alright.
**[10:27] ---**
Remember this?
**[10:29] ---**
It's the treasure I swiped
from you in Episode 1.
**[10:32] ---**
It actually belongs to the wife
of Okawa Taiko, of Okawa Products.
**[10:37] ---**
As you know, my armored
truck was attacked recently.
**[10:40] ---**
Among its contents was a key
to a jewelry box your mom treasured.
**[10:46] ---**
The one who brings it back
to me will be my heir.
**[10:50] ---**
There you have it.
**[10:51] ---**
And our client in Episode 1 was
his first son, Okawa Koichi.
**[10:56] ---**
Next episode, it was his
second son, Okawa Koji.
**[11:00] ---**
I was suddenly like, "Whoa,
I can make some big money!"
**[11:03] ---**
So I secretly contacted the first
son and negotiated with the second.
**[11:07] ---**
I really worked my butt off
during Episode 2!
**[11:10] ---**
A bidding war, basically?
**[11:13] ---**
Yep! But I guess I went a little too far,
**[11:16] ---**
because the second son got
pissed and got into the Kong...
**[11:19] ---**
Anyways, if we can just get out
of the second son's territory
**[11:23] ---**
and get to the first son's
East Oasis, we'll have won!
**[11:29] ---**
So, you alright with that?
**[11:32] ---**
Uhh...
**[11:34] ---**
I suppose we'll manage. I do have a plan...
**[11:38] ---**
Really?! Awesome! So how do
we take care of the Kong?!
**[11:42] ---**
Are you crazy! We can't kill that thing!
**[11:45] ---**
We're just gonna run like hell!
**[11:48] ---**
Oh, geez.
**[11:49] ---**
Way to go, Sunabouzu. As petty as always.
**[11:52] ---**
Only the stupidest and dumbest
moron of the Great Kanto Desert
**[11:56] ---**
would ever think of crushing that thing...!
**[12:29] ---**
Sunabouzu...!
**[12:38] ---**
Ghost of the Desert, my butt!
What a let-down!
**[12:42] ---**
He's always been that way. All he
ever did was disappoint people...
**[12:48] ---**
Not to mention being rude and filthy...!
**[12:50] ---**
He was puny and stupid
and idiotic and pathetic...
**[12:55] ---**
Your badmouthing-dead-people convention...
**[12:57] ---**
...is now over.
**[13:01] ---**
Unkempt desert scum.
How dare you resist me.
**[13:07] ---**
Don't expect to die peacefully.
**[13:09] ---**
I'll start by tearing your clothes off.
**[13:13] ---**
Retrieve the key!
**[13:14] ---**
With pleasure!
**[13:19] ---**
Boobie Lady...!
**[13:30] ---**
Hiro-kun fell off the cliff!
**[13:38] ---**
You're dead...!
**[13:41] ---**
You are so dead!
**[13:46] ---**
I hurt all over...
**[13:48] ---**
Oh, you're alive?!
**[13:50] ---**
You're as stubborn as always...!
**[13:52] ---**
Even I thought I died...!
**[13:55] ---**
Thanks to you, my treasures
all got busted up...!
**[14:00] ---**
My newly-repaired Type Zero Helmet...
**[14:02] ---**
My lifeline in the desert -
my Cherry Blossom Air Cooler...
**[14:06] ---**
My old man's Winchester...!
**[14:09] ---**
Freeze! Hands up! How dare
you hurt Hiro-kun...!
**[14:14] ---**
You damn rich jerk-off!
You'll pay for this!
**[14:23] ---**
Stop! What're you doing, you idiot?!
**[14:26] ---**
Ow...!
**[14:28] ---**
What the heck are they doin'...?
**[14:38] ---**
What are you doing, you perv?!
**[14:52] ---**
My key...!
**[14:55] ---**
Want this key? Then come catch me!
**[15:04] ---**
It's no use! We can't see him!
**[15:06] ---**
After him! Into the Kong!
**[15:09] ---**
Ahh!
**[15:10] ---**
What is it?!
**[15:10] ---**
The girl and three brothers escaped too!
**[15:13] ---**
What?!
**[15:15] ---**
Damn Kanta went completely
mental! This ain't good!
**[15:20] ---**
How's that?!
**[15:21] ---**
There's no tellin' what he'll
do when he's like that!
**[15:25] ---**
He might try to die
in battle to get revenge!
**[15:29] ---**
Listen, Akio, Haruo! Get the key
back, even if you gotta kill him!
**[15:33] ---**
Sounds good to me!
**[15:43] ---**
Bastard! I'll teach you...!
**[15:47] ---**
You idiot! He has the key!
Retrieve it intact!
**[15:52] ---**
He isn't wearing a mask! I'll use gas!
**[15:59] ---**
Crap!
**[16:02] ---**
Doesn't look like he
stands a chance at all...
**[16:05] ---**
Moron...
**[16:11] ---**
Left! Left!
**[16:14] ---**
Right! Right!
**[16:25] ---**
Yikes...!
**[16:27] ---**
Damn punk is scurrying all over the place!
**[16:30] ---**
Hey, doesn't it seem strange?
**[16:32] ---**
Strange how?
**[16:32] ---**
He's choosing paths the Kong
can pass through...
**[16:37] ---**
Is he leading us on?
**[16:39] ---**
What the hell's he up to?!
**[16:42] ---**
He's totally flipped out.
**[16:44] ---**
Damn it!
**[16:45] ---**
We could make mincemeat outta
him if he didn't have the key!
**[16:50] ---**
He's shootin' pellets again!
Is he mocking us?!
**[17:05] ---**
Run him over!
**[17:07] ---**
Eh? But the key...!
**[17:09] ---**
It's better than blasting it to bits!
**[17:12] ---**
And if it breaks, it's still a draw!
**[17:14] ---**
Go!
**[17:15] ---**
He's red...!
**[17:23] ---**
What's this...?!
**[17:24] ---**
A cliff!
**[17:27] ---**
Idiots!
**[17:32] ---**
Ow...!
**[17:33] ---**
Don't move!
**[17:38] ---**
Alright, Kanta! Are you insane,
takin' on the Kong like that?!
**[17:43] ---**
Give me back my key!
**[17:45] ---**
M-make with the key!
**[17:47] ---**
No funny moves!
**[17:49] ---**
Bastards...
**[17:58] ---**
Stay outta this! I'm enjoying myself...!
**[18:02] ---**
If the Kong gets the best
of me, this key'll go boom!
**[18:06] ---**
Sunabouzu...?
**[18:08] ---**
Wouldn't you prefer that
over being tortured to death, too?!
**[18:15] ---**
Or--
**[18:16] ---**
--should I pull the pin right here?
**[18:27] ---**
Hey, he left.
**[18:29] ---**
This is bad. He'll totally do it.
**[18:33] ---**
Yeah. Definitely.
**[18:34] ---**
Kanta's thrown his share of grenades
at us, so we know all too well...
**[18:41] ---**
Talk about close childhood friends...
**[18:44] ---**
Our only real option is to kill him...
**[18:47] ---**
Hello, Hiro-kun.
**[18:49] ---**
Oh, hello.
**[18:50] ---**
Want some help?
**[18:51] ---**
No thanks. I'm gonna kill
the Sunabouzu myself.
**[18:54] ---**
And then?
**[18:55] ---**
And then take the key
to Koji-san, of course.
**[18:59] ---**
So you're a spy for the eldest son?
**[19:02] ---**
Yeah, you could say that.
**[19:04] ---**
Would this be the key?
**[19:06] ---**
Yeah, that's it!
**[19:11] ---**
Where are you, Sunabouzu?!
**[19:15] ---**
There he is!
**[19:17] ---**
After him! He must be run over!
**[19:21] ---**
Don't think you can escape, Sunabouzu!
**[19:26] ---**
Flatten him!
**[19:32] ---**
Hiro-kun...?
**[19:36] ---**
So, where did he go?
**[19:40] ---**
What?
**[19:46] ---**
You're the first one to ever make
such a complete fool out of me...
**[19:53] ---**
...Sunabouzu!
**[19:58] ---**
Eh?!
**[19:58] ---**
What is it?!
**[20:01] ---**
It's Sunabouzu...!
**[20:03] ---**
Oh, crap! He really is gonna die fighting!
**[20:05] ---**
Oh no! My key...!
**[20:08] ---**
It's no use! It's too late!
**[20:10] ---**
But...! But...! But...!
**[20:13] ---**
My final shot...
**[20:15] ---**
My magazine's screwed up,
so there's no 2nd shot.
**[20:18] ---**
You know, Kong-san.
**[20:20] ---**
You really are the biggest and
mightiest in the Great Kanto Desert.
**[20:24] ---**
I doubt there's anything
bigger in this desert...!
**[20:28] ---**
What?!
**[20:31] ---**
So...
**[20:42] ---**
So I doubt you've ever been
attacked from directly above.
**[20:48] ---**
Such recklessness...!
**[20:51] ---**
Is this the real you, Sunabouzu,
Ghost of the Desert...?!
**[20:56] ---**
The mighty Kong...!
**[20:59] ---**
My key...!
**[21:01] ---**
Kanta was a dimwit after all...
**[21:04] ---**
Huh...?
**[21:06] ---**
Whoa, he's alive!
**[21:08] ---**
Does that mean my key is too?!
**[21:10] ---**
It's finally your guys' turn,
Machine Gun Brothers!
**[21:17] ---**
Eat this!
**[21:19] ---**
Come on out!
**[21:23] ---**
Everyone evacuate!
**[21:25] ---**
Yeah, right!
**[21:26] ---**
We'd be Swiss cheese out there!
**[21:28] ---**
But if this keeps up...!
**[21:32] ---**
The Kong was too big to chase
a rat into a narrow place,
**[21:37] ---**
and its armaments too powerful.
**[21:40] ---**
The only place it can reign
supreme is in the wide-ass desert.
**[21:45] ---**
That'll teach ya to be arrogant...
**[21:49] ---**
And so the five somehow managed
to acquire a great sum of money.
**[21:56] ---**
The moral of the day:
**[21:58] ---**
Not all girls with huge
knockers are airheads.
**[22:01] ---**
Today was another hot day
in the Great Kanto Desert...
**[22:06] ---**
Wow! You're the first person
to ever beat the Kong...
**[22:12] ---**
...Ghost of the Desert, Sunabouzu!
**[22:17] ---**
I guess!
**[22:19] ---**
Now let me rub your breasts!
**[22:22] ---**
Won't he just die already...?
**[22:39] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:47] ---**
*One more big circle...*
**[22:51] ---**
*A billowing raincoat...
(It's a cape!)*
**[22:55] ---**
*Oh, let's not forget
the sunshade now...*
**[23:00] ---**
*(His heart is pitch black!
His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:06] ---**
*Give him a Winchester and
suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*
**[23:22] ---**
*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*
**[23:25] ---**
*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*
**[23:29] ---**
*He'll go forth again tomorrow!
(Go forth again)*
**[23:33] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:35] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:37] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady!)*
**[23:39] ---**
*He'll rush on ahead, life
on the line! Rush on ahead!*
**[23:57] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabouzu here!
**[23:59] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabouzu here!
**[23:59] ---**
That boob lady sure was smart!
Who'll the next one be?!
**[24:02] ---**
**[24:02] ---**
-- Fuyuo will!
-- Akio will!
**[24:04] ---**
-- Minami Haruo will! (famous singer)
-- Like hell, he will!
**[24:07] ---**
On the next Sunabouzu -
Sniping and Footsteps
**[24:09] ---**
Miss it and it's electric massage time!

after that job the other day!
**[03:59] ---**
Though I do regret letting the
treasure and boobs get away...
**[04:05] ---**
But I did get this
equally-as-delightful M40 instead...!
**[04:11] ---**
Now, then...!
**[04:13] ---**
What should I shoot first...?
**[04:28] ---**
Damn...!
**[05:02] ---**
Who the hell...?!
**[05:25] ---**
Distance of about 1800. This guy's good...
**[05:30] ---**
Guess we know who this
baby's first target is...!
**[05:42] ---**
Where is he?
**[05:43] ---**
Huh?!
**[05:54] ---**
I bet you think you're lucky, Sunabouzu...
**[05:58] ---**
What?!
**[05:59] ---**
But I aimed the first for your
helmet, the second for your rifle.
**[06:04] ---**
An M40 is better prey
than a runt like you...
**[06:08] ---**
Who the hell are you?!
**[06:11] ---**
I wanted to see how good the guy
who beat the invincible Kong
**[06:16] ---**
to become the greatest handyman
in the desert really is...
**[06:20] ---**
I am Onuma Jiro, also known
as the Shimmering Sniper.
**[06:24] ---**
I challenge you, Sunabouzu!
**[06:26] ---**
Who the hell do you think you are?! Huh?!
**[06:31] ---**
Hey! Say something!
**[06:40] ---**
This sucks...
**[06:41] ---**
I had finally gotten it,
after all I went through...!
**[06:49] ---**
Trying to make a name, huh?! Hilarious.
**[06:52] ---**
You're challenging me, when you know
**[06:54] ---**
I'm the most skilled and
talented in all the Kanto...?!
**[06:58] ---**
Alright! You're on!
**[07:01] ---**
Wherever you hide, I will find you
and slowly torture you to death!
**[07:22] ---**
The first was there...
**[07:24] ---**
The second was here...
**[07:51] ---**
Still new...
**[08:06] ---**
Hey, what about our fight?
The guy just took off...
**[08:21] ---**
Northeast...
**[08:33] ---**
Over there, huh?!
**[08:51] ---**
Huh...?!
**[08:53] ---**
He was walking down there,
so how'd he beat me here?
**[08:57] ---**
And the speed of those shots...
Definitely an automatic.
**[09:01] ---**
This is looking bad...
**[09:03] ---**
If I can just pinpoint his location...
**[09:33] ---**
Come on... Take the bait...!
**[09:36] ---**
I just need to know where he is...
**[09:42] ---**
There! Found ya!
**[09:44] ---**
If only my M40 weren't busted...
**[09:51] ---**
Just means I'll have to get closer.
**[10:08] ---**
He fell...
**[10:10] ---**
But he's the Ghost of the Desert.
I doubt he'd die so easily...
**[10:20] ---**
Now for night to fall...
**[10:43] ---**
Ow...! Ouch...!
**[10:56] ---**
It's all right...
**[11:00] ---**
He's a bargain basement sniper.
**[11:02] ---**
I can't imagine he has
very fancy equipment...
**[11:05] ---**
So his scouting capabilities
are the same as mine.
**[11:09] ---**
I figured the first to find
the other would win,
**[11:12] ---**
but how is he able to move that fast?!
**[11:48] ---**
Freeze!
**[11:52] ---**
Eh...?
**[11:54] ---**
Eh?
**[11:56] ---**
Eh?!
**[11:57] ---**
A girl...?!
**[12:02] ---**
A kid...?!
**[12:12] ---**
No way!
**[12:31] ---**
Thank you so much! I've been
wandering around lost for two days!
**[12:41] ---**
And thanks for this delicious food!
**[12:44] ---**
Oh, those are 1000 yen apiece...
**[12:51] ---**
Water's... on the house.
**[13:04] ---**
No, no. If money can ensure
my life, I'll easily pay up!
**[13:11] ---**
Here you are.
**[13:12] ---**
Thanks!
**[13:14] ---**
Boy, am I glad I met someone nice!
**[13:17] ---**
Not like that creep I met earlier!
**[13:22] ---**
He wouldn't even glance at me
when I was on my last legs,
**[13:24] ---**
and he held a rifle this
long like he was so great...
**[13:27] ---**
What?! Say that again!
**[13:33] ---**
You met him?!
**[13:43] ---**
Where?! Where was he?!
**[13:51] ---**
Damn it!
**[14:00] ---**
Hey...!
**[14:02] ---**
Kid! Hide unless you wanna die!
**[14:05] ---**
It's okay! I know I won't get shot!
**[14:09] ---**
Huh?!
**[14:11] ---**
Upsy-daisy...
**[14:12] ---**
Hey, wait, that's mine...!
**[14:16] ---**
Well, goodbye!
**[14:20] ---**
Hey, you...!
**[14:28] ---**
Aha! Those footsteps...!
**[14:31] ---**
That brat...! She was playing
Onuma Jiro's double!
**[14:45] ---**
Crap.
**[15:09] ---**
So hot...
**[15:12] ---**
She took off with all my
water and spare batteries...
**[15:16] ---**
I need to save it for emergencies,
but wearing my helmet
**[15:21] ---**
with the cooler off to
scan for them is hell...
**[15:28] ---**
He hasn't moved one bit, Master.
**[15:32] ---**
Nope. But good job stealing his bag, Taiko.
**[15:40] ---**
Now we just wait.
**[15:42] ---**
Kill the Sunabouzu, and you'll be
famous and gets lots of hit jobs!
**[15:49] ---**
He's only famous because of his craftiness.
**[15:53] ---**
It's only natural for me to bring him down.
**[15:57] ---**
He is the exact opposite of you.
**[16:00] ---**
You're a top-skilled sharpshooter,
**[16:04] ---**
though your drawback is that you're
too nice and bad at business.
**[16:12] ---**
Don't be so frank.
**[16:16] ---**
Wow!
**[16:17] ---**
There sure is a lot in here...
**[16:22] ---**
Don't be touching anything.
It could be dangerous.
**[16:25] ---**
Yes, sir...
**[16:27] ---**
"Danger"
**[16:28] ---**
What's this?
**[16:32] ---**
If I at least knew where they were...
**[16:42] ---**
Not this...
**[16:45] ---**
I hoped I'd never have to use this, but...
**[17:08] ---**
Your move, Sunabouzu!
**[17:37] ---**
Master!
**[17:42] ---**
Time to die!
**[17:43] ---**
Time to go boom!
**[17:47] ---**
Up there!
**[18:15] ---**
Master...
**[18:17] ---**
Taiko...! Are you alright?!
**[18:19] ---**
Y-yes...
**[18:27] ---**
What is it?!
**[18:41] ---**
Tons of Sunabouzus...!
**[18:44] ---**
What is this...?!
**[18:46] ---**
Impossible...!
**[18:49] ---**
What the...?!
**[18:50] ---**
A balloon...!
**[18:52] ---**
Are these... all balloons?
**[18:56] ---**
No, he's definitely hiding among them...!
**[19:01] ---**
This one?!
**[19:05] ---**
Damn!
**[19:07] ---**
Damn it!
**[19:09] ---**
Another one!
**[19:10] ---**
One toy balloon...
**[19:13] ---**
Two toy balloons...!
**[19:16] ---**
Three toy balloons...!
**[19:19] ---**
The dozen balloons and rainbow
smoke bombs I reluctantly bought...
**[19:25] ---**
How beautiful they were...
**[19:31] ---**
I knew it was a vicious desert,
**[19:33] ---**
but I never thought I'd get my bag stolen.
**[19:36] ---**
That's how I felt as I rigged it
with explosives as insurance...
**[19:40] ---**
But I never actually
thought I'd blow 'em up...
**[19:44] ---**
Like I care!
**[19:47] ---**
Damn! You can't mock me...!
**[19:51] ---**
You know...
**[19:52] ---**
I've made the most of
situations presented to me
**[19:55] ---**
to escape from many hells.
**[19:59] ---**
With skill like that, I would never
lose to a weakling sniper like you!
**[20:13] ---**
Probably just another balloon--
**[20:21] ---**
Or the real one...
**[20:24] ---**
Master...!
**[20:26] ---**
Aimed for my rifle, huh?
You think you're so cool...
**[20:29] ---**
That's why you're weak.
**[20:32] ---**
If it were me, I would've shot you
through the head without a word!
**[20:38] ---**
Master lost...!
**[20:50] ---**
No! Don't rape me!
**[20:56] ---**
Don't be dumb.
**[20:59] ---**
Geez! The only thing worth
anything is this Dragunov?
**[21:05] ---**
This ain't worth enough to fix my M40...
**[21:09] ---**
I won, but I ain't happy...
**[21:25] ---**
Master!
**[21:26] ---**
I beg you!
**[21:27] ---**
Quit calling me master!
**[21:36] ---**
Following me around ain't gonna make it so!
**[21:39] ---**
No! I will follow you everywhere
until you make me your pupil!
**[21:43] ---**
I don't like your face.
It reminds me of bad memories.
**[21:50] ---**
In this way, the Sunabouzu
found himself the target
**[21:53] ---**
of those seeking a name for themselves.
**[21:57] ---**
Oh, dear...
**[22:07] ---**
I beg of you! I want to be the
strongest woman in the desert!
**[22:12] ---**
You just don't get it...
**[22:14] ---**
I'll do anything you ask of me!
**[22:17] ---**
Even if it's something naughty!
**[22:19] ---**
I ain't interested in bony,
flat-chested chicks.
**[22:23] ---**
Then I'll grow giant breasts!
**[22:25] ---**
Eh?!
**[22:25] ---**
"Giant Breasts"

*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*

*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*

*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:38] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady!)*
**[23:40] ---**
*He'll rush on ahead, life
on the line! Rush on ahead!*
**[23:58] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabouzu here!
**[24:00] ---**
How was this episode's boob lady?
Wait, there was none!
**[24:00] ---**
**[24:03] ---**
They're just for show!
Important people wouldn't understand!
**[24:06] ---**
More importantly, what about me...?
**[24:08] ---**
On the next Sunabouzu -
Well and Trap
**[24:10] ---**
-- Huh?
-- Miss it and it's flat chests for you!

West Oasis District,
Frontier Village ♪21...
**[01:45] ---**
Our village.
**[01:47] ---**
Talk about a scruffy excuse for a town...
**[01:50] ---**
All frontier towns're like that...
**[01:53] ---**
But it's a different story
if they strike water...
**[01:56] ---**
"Even oases start from a single well."
**[01:59] ---**
If we had our own village with water,
**[02:02] ---**
we could live on easy street
the rest of our lives!
**[02:05] ---**
Assuming there really is water.
They'll be finding out soon.
**[02:10] ---**
Let's come back when they do.
**[02:12] ---**
I bet this shabby village'll
be sparkling when we do...
**[02:22] ---**
T-t-this is bad...!
**[02:27] ---**
"Well and Trap"

**[02:37] ---**
Frontier villages...
well-digging villages.
**[02:38] ---**
Frontier villages...
well-digging villages.
**[02:40] ---**
Hoping to strike it rich,
poor people throughout the Kanto
**[02:45] ---**
come together and form these
frontier villages to dig wells.
**[02:55] ---**
Finally here...
**[02:57] ---**
I'm takin' the blindfold off.
**[03:06] ---**
I'd heard the rumors, but it's
even shabbier in real life...!
**[03:14] ---**
So this is a frontier village?
**[03:26] ---**
Soil from the well.
**[03:31] ---**
It's damp...
**[03:33] ---**
The more we dig,
the damper it becomes...!
**[03:37] ---**
Did you test it?
**[03:38] ---**
Yes! There are no
dangerous chemicals at all!
**[03:47] ---**
Way to go, Chief!
This village is goin' places!
**[03:51] ---**
Money and people'll come pouring in,
**[03:54] ---**
and it'll be, "Goodbye, poverty!"
**[03:56] ---**
Do you think so?
**[04:00] ---**
Alright! I'll take the job!
**[04:04] ---**
You can pay my bodyguard fee
after you've struck water...!
**[04:07] ---**
--1 million yen.
--Eh?!
**[04:09] ---**
A million'll be chump change
once you hit water, Chief!
**[04:13] ---**
Chump change!
**[04:16] ---**
Then we're agreed! Let's discuss
the details over some water!
**[04:23] ---**
"Central Supply Station"
**[04:29] ---**
A group of 4 large men sporting
Kirisame Type-100 Helmets
**[04:34] ---**
and hand weapons of all sizes...?
**[04:38] ---**
That's gotta be the Edogawa Gang.
**[04:41] ---**
Edogawa Gang...?
**[04:42] ---**
A four-man bandit gang.
Ranks above average, I guess...
**[04:48] ---**
You state it with such frankness...
**[04:51] ---**
According to my Scoundrel Files,
they're the only possible ones!
**[04:57] ---**
Scoundrel Files?
**[04:59] ---**
Yep. Compiled by yours truly.
**[05:02] ---**
How impressive...!
**[05:16] ---**
Nasty! It's all warm and smelly...!
**[05:18] ---**
Whoa, he chugged down
a whole cup of water...!
**[05:22] ---**
City folk sure are different...!
**[05:24] ---**
And he called it nasty...!
**[05:26] ---**
We'll never know such luxury...!
**[05:30] ---**
So? How does it look?
**[05:32] ---**
Can you handle them, Sunabozu-sensei?!
**[05:36] ---**
"Sensei"...?!
**[05:41] ---**
Who do you think I am?!
I'm the Kanto's most skilled...
**[05:45] ---**
...the Sunabozu!
**[05:50] ---**
Drink up! Drink up!
This is all on the chief!
**[06:05] ---**
Don't be so reserved...!
**[06:07] ---**
Eh? Work? Don't worry about that!
**[06:12] ---**
I'm here to protect
the village, you know!
**[06:15] ---**
Sunabozu-sensei!
**[06:17] ---**
Word about you has spread
to this remote village, too!
**[06:21] ---**
About your razor-sharp intellect,
courage, and determination!
**[06:25] ---**
And that you're a Super Handyman
who uses super techniques
**[06:28] ---**
to resolve one tough
situation after another...
**[06:33] ---**
...the Sunabozu!
**[06:36] ---**
You're a cheerful fellow!
What's your name?!
**[06:39] ---**
I'm Kawano Tamehiko!
**[06:41] ---**
I'm just an inept yes-man,

--Heita's been hurt!
--My leg...!

Hey, Cupcake!
**[07:23] ---**
Fancy some water with us?!
**[07:28] ---**
Get lost, Dogface!
**[07:33] ---**
Mommy, I'm thirsty! I want some water!
**[07:37] ---**
Be strong.
**[07:39] ---**
There are no rations today

**[07:47] ---**
All our food...!

"Town Hall"
**[08:11] ---**
Do you have any idea
how much water he's drunk?!
**[08:14] ---**
Half a day's supply
for the whole village!
**[08:17] ---**
But there's not much we can do,
under the circumstances...!
**[08:22] ---**
I'm not sure if he's here to
protect the village or to extort it!
**[08:26] ---**
Let's not forget Tamehiko!
**[08:28] ---**
We save his stranded butt from dyin'
**[08:31] ---**
and he goes and sucks up to that bum...!
**[08:34] ---**
Is that nitwit really capable of
protecting the village, Chief?!
**[08:38] ---**
You needn't worry about that.
**[08:40] ---**
He's certified by the
West Oasis Handyman Guild.
**[08:44] ---**
Just endure it a little longer.
**[08:46] ---**
It won't be long until
all of our hard work pays off!
**[08:52] ---**
What's the map of the village for, sir?
**[08:56] ---**
Are you devising a plan
to stop the bandits?!
**[09:01] ---**
Yeah...
**[09:02] ---**
So, what're you gonna do?
**[09:04] ---**
You gonna set a trap and ambush 'em?!
**[09:07] ---**
The question is
where they'll attack from.
**[09:11] ---**
Their target is the well.
**[09:14] ---**
And they don't know about me
or that we know about their raid.
**[09:22] ---**
Taking that into consideration,
the ambush point should be...
**[09:27] ---**
Should be...?!
**[09:30] ---**
Right here!
**[09:32] ---**
Brilliant!
**[09:35] ---**
Well, I'll just be going now...!
**[09:41] ---**
Now, then...
**[09:51] ---**
Well, if it isn't Sunabozu-sensei.
**[09:53] ---**
Oh! What do we have here...?!
**[09:57] ---**
They're not as big as Asagiri Junko's,
but they have a great shape!
**[10:00] ---**
They're perfect! I guess shape
IS more important than size...!
**[10:09] ---**
No! I can't disregard size!
**[10:12] ---**
Even with great shape,
small breasts just don't cut it!
**[10:18] ---**
Wait! When you get down to it,
size IS shape...!
**[10:21] ---**
Yeah! I can't give up either!
**[10:27] ---**
Wait, is it all about breasts?
What about looks...?
**[10:31] ---**
Yeah! Gargantuan boobs don't
make plain looks any better!
**[10:34] ---**
It's much more than looks with me!
**[10:37] ---**
Breasts...! Looks...!
**[10:39] ---**
Yeah! I love the entire female body!
**[10:43] ---**
A babe!

but you can't convince us!
**[11:09] ---**
Meaning...?
**[11:11] ---**
We want to see if you really
can protect this village...!
**[11:20] ---**
Might you be convinced now...?
**[11:24] ---**
You're good...!
**[11:27] ---**
Like I'd ever lose to a
bunch of underfed wusses...!
**[11:31] ---**
Listen.
**[11:33] ---**
Normally, I try to accomplish all
my jobs as the Kanto's strongest...
**[11:40] ---**
Eh...?
**[11:40] ---**
But being treated like this
really kills my enthusiasm...
**[11:44] ---**
Think I could get some compensation?
**[11:47] ---**
Compensation...?
**[11:50] ---**
Let me do you!
**[12:06] ---**
A-alright.
**[12:12] ---**
But only after you've protected
the village! Just do that...
**[12:19] ---**
...and you can do as you please!
**[12:23] ---**
I'll do anything if it means
we can live like people here...
**[12:28] ---**
That IS why I crawled all the way
here as the sun broiled me alive...!
**[12:36] ---**
I'm gonna hold you to that...!
**[12:43] ---**
And so the Sunabozu continued to
live it up, Tamehiko at his side.
**[12:47] ---**
Meanwhile...!
**[12:55] ---**
From the well gushed the
villagers' much-wished-for water!
**[13:16] ---**
From the well gushed the
villagers' much-wished-for water,
**[13:20] ---**
and there was much celebration.
**[13:25] ---**
And then... they came.
**[13:37] ---**
So their bodyguard is the Sunabozu,
of all people...
**[13:42] ---**
Let's accept them graciously...
**[13:44] ---**
...a rich village and reputation
as the Kanto's greatest!
**[14:06] ---**
Is it really wise to gather
all of the men out front like this?!
**[14:12] ---**
He evacuated the women and
children to the supply station.
**[14:15] ---**
There's nobody else!
**[14:16] ---**
Said the Edogawa Gang'll pretend
to be travelers or salesmen!
**[14:21] ---**
Apparently, that's their usual method...!
**[14:24] ---**
So he said they'd come from the east,
through the front gate.
**[14:28] ---**
So where did he go?
**[14:32] ---**
He took off with Tamehiko to go check on stuff...!
**[14:35] ---**
"Near Ruins South of Village"
He took off with Tamehiko to go check on stuff...!
**[14:38] ---**
Is it ok to leave everyone behind?
**[14:41] ---**
--They'll be fine there.
--Eh?
**[14:44] ---**
The bad guys won't come from the east.
**[14:46] ---**
They'll come from there.
The ruins to the south.
**[14:49] ---**
Eh?!
**[14:51] ---**
I know this...
**[14:53] ---**
...'cause I'm the most super mega
awesomely skilled in all the Kanto!
**[14:58] ---**
Explain!
**[15:02] ---**
Oh! Mari-chan!
**[15:04] ---**
What's wrong? Were you
lonely without little ol' me?
**[15:08] ---**
Or maybe you couldn't
wait to do it with me?
**[15:12] ---**
Oh, Mari-chan, you're so impatient...!
**[15:17] ---**
But I can always
protect the village later...
**[15:20] ---**
Now bury my face in those
magnificent breasts of--
**[15:24] ---**
I only came to see
if you were slacking off!
**[15:27] ---**
Oh...
**[15:28] ---**
So what's this about them
not coming from the east?!
**[15:32] ---**
Why did you gather everyone
on the eastern side?!
**[15:36] ---**
Yes, I do believe a proper
explanation is in order.
**[15:42] ---**
This guy's a spy for the Edogawa Gang!
**[15:45] ---**
--Huh...?!
--Eh?!
**[15:46] ---**
--Hold on...! That's not true...!
--Shut up!
**[15:51] ---**
You were so freakin' obvious,
you small fry!
**[15:55] ---**
I'm sorry... I am a spy...
**[15:58] ---**
I did suspect news about
the village was leaking out...!
**[16:02] ---**
But I never would've imagined
that you were a spy...!
**[16:07] ---**
You should be careful.
But I guess poor people can't.
**[16:11] ---**
Why didn't you tell us immediately?!
**[16:14] ---**
I figured that if info
was being leaked to them
**[16:17] ---**
that I might try
using that to my advantage...
**[16:20] ---**
Eh?
**[16:22] ---**
The villagers at the
eastern gate are a decoy.
**[16:26] ---**
They're definitely gonna
attack from here, the south.
**[16:29] ---**
So you were actually wandering around
last night to set traps here...?
**[16:36] ---**
Yup.
**[16:40] ---**
Does that mean all your horrible behavior
was meant to fool the spy?!
**[16:48] ---**
Eh?
**[16:50] ---**
That's the look of envy...!
**[16:52] ---**
Those eyes...! She's fallen in
love with me! No doubt about it!
**[16:56] ---**
But they scare me so!
**[16:57] ---**
I don't wanna have to choose
just one girl yet!
**[17:01] ---**
I can't even imagine being with
one girl for the rest of my life!
**[17:04] ---**
Yeah, I'll just give it a shot,
**[17:05] ---**
and if I like it, I'll give it
another shot or two! Yeah!
**[17:12] ---**
I should've realized!
**[17:15] ---**
Never fear, Mariko.
I hold a 99% chance of victory.
**[17:21] ---**
The village will be all right!
**[17:32] ---**
Huh? That's to the east...
**[17:38] ---**
That was the sign of an attack!
**[17:41] ---**
Eh?
**[17:42] ---**
Hey! I thought they were coming
from the south instead of the east?!
**[17:49] ---**
Eh?
**[17:51] ---**
Huh...?
**[17:56] ---**
Mr. Bodyguard! Please save us...!
**[17:59] ---**
Where were you, dumbass?!
**[18:01] ---**
Why didn't you alert me sooner?!
**[18:05] ---**
They were so terrifyingly fast
that before we knew it...
**[18:09] ---**
Geez, you're all so useless...!
**[18:13] ---**
Fast, you say?!
**[18:15] ---**
Damn! Guess this means
it'll be a big shootout!
**[18:20] ---**
What a pain in the ass!
**[18:28] ---**
Rockets! No wonder they're fast!
**[18:37] ---**
Just as we thought...
**[18:39] ---**
Did you really think we wouldn't
see through such a petty trap?!
**[18:48] ---**
D-damn it...!
**[19:09] ---**
Ow ow ow...!
**[19:11] ---**
Bastard!
**[19:16] ---**
Blinders!
**[19:18] ---**
Damn! I can't see!
**[19:24] ---**
Don't let the Sunabozu escape!
After him!
**[19:28] ---**
The Sunabozu subsequently
went into hiding.
**[19:38] ---**
Hang in there...
**[19:40] ---**
You alright?
**[19:43] ---**
Today's your last day as village chief.
**[19:47] ---**
Now sign this.
It declares us the village leaders.
**[19:55] ---**
Also, Mariko belongs to me now.
**[20:11] ---**
Horrible news...!
**[20:18] ---**
The well...!
**[20:19] ---**
What about the well?!
**[20:21] ---**
The Sunabozu, he--
**[20:28] ---**
W-what...?!
**[20:39] ---**
Plastic explosives and nitro...
**[20:42] ---**
Damn! We can't even touch it...!
**[20:49] ---**
Oh, how nice of you all to be here!
**[20:53] ---**
Now the entertainment can begin!
**[20:56] ---**
There's more than plastic explosives
and nitro in that bucket.
**[21:01] ---**
At the bottom of it is a powerful poison!
**[21:04] ---**
--What?!
--What?!
**[21:08] ---**
And here's the detonator for
the plastic explosives...!
**[21:13] ---**
If they blow, the poison gets spread
and it's "The End" for the well!
**[21:24] ---**
Damn you, Sunabozu...!
**[21:26] ---**
The contract said
I'd protect the village,
**[21:30] ---**
but didn't say anything about the well.
**[21:32] ---**
Right, Chief?
**[21:35] ---**
Without this well, the village
is worthless to the Edogawa Gang.
**[21:40] ---**
Good thinkin', huh?
**[21:42] ---**
Damn you...!
**[21:44] ---**
I won't let you have your way,
jerk-offs...
**[21:52] ---**
He's gone crazy...!
**[21:56] ---**
P-please...!
**[21:59] ---**
The well...! I'll do
anything you say! Just...
**[22:04] ---**
...save the well from that lunatic!
**[22:08] ---**
Kill him right this minute!
**[22:39] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:47] ---**
*One more big circle...*
**[22:51] ---**
*A billowing raincoat...
(It's a cape!)*
**[22:55] ---**
*Oh, let's not forget
the sunshade now...*
**[23:00] ---**
*(His heart is pitch black!
His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:06] ---**
*Give him a Winchester and
suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*
**[23:22] ---**
*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*
**[23:25] ---**
*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*
**[23:29] ---**
*He'll go forth again tomorrow!
(Go forth again)*
**[23:33] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:35] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:37] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady!)*
**[23:39] ---**
*He'll rush on ahead, life
on the line! Rush on ahead!*
**[23:57] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabozu here!
**[23:59] ---**
Sweet frontier boob lady, huh?!
Next time's an intense battle!
**[24:02] ---**
--Blast him to smithereens!
--Understood. I am the village chief.
**[24:06] ---**
What the hell're you doing?!
**[24:07] ---**
On the next Sunabozu-
"Rockets and Wandering"
**[24:10] ---**
Miss it and it's your loss!

"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[00:17] ---**
*I am the one!*
**[00:20] ---**
*Push on ahead as you like, yeah*
**[00:24] ---**
*Oh, listen closely to me*
**[00:28] ---**
*and speak the name
of the desert god*
**[00:32] ---**
*Clench your teeth*
**[00:36] ---**
*When your heart starts
to tremble with heat...*
**[00:40] ---**
*Stop it! It'll only
bring destruction*
**[00:46] ---**
*Let's do it, oh, angel*
**[00:50] ---**
*Now is the time to
stand up and be strong*
**[00:55] ---**
*A sad history, a
hidden big story*
**[00:59] ---**
*That's the mystery*
**[01:02] ---**
*There's nothing certain
about what tomorrow holds*
**[01:10] ---**
*so living through this moment*
**[01:15] ---**
*is my mission alone*
**[01:33] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert.
**[01:36] ---**
A hell in which nothing moves
and nothing grows.
**[01:40] ---**
If thrown out into this hell
with no equipment whatsoever,
**[01:43] ---**
one would die in half a day's time.
**[01:46] ---**
The tremulous sand, much like water,
robs one of energy
**[01:51] ---**
as exhalation steadily depletes
moisture from the entire body.
**[01:57] ---**
Temperatures reach 60 Celsius,
**[02:00] ---**
but with no humidity in the air,
it drops a bit in the shade,
**[02:04] ---**
and the evaporation of sweat
also takes away some heat.
**[02:08] ---**
Even still, the apparent temperature
of 50 makes one's mind hazy...
**[02:15] ---**
Desert dwellers use desert equipment
to cross the desert.
**[02:21] ---**
However, Sunabozu and friend
only possess the very bare minimum.
**[02:26] ---**
The hellish survival has begun.
**[02:30] ---**
"Rockets and Wandering"
**[02:39] ---**
You're going to blow the well up
and poison it?!
**[02:43] ---**
Yep. If I do that,
**[02:45] ---**
the Edogawa Gang here'll
probably leave town.
**[02:49] ---**
Get real! Are you insane?!
If you do that...
**[02:54] ---**
...I won't let you do me!
**[02:56] ---**
Eh?! No way!
**[02:58] ---**
I told you it was so we
could live like people!
**[03:02] ---**
Even if the bandits do leave,
what good is an unusable well?!
**[03:06] ---**
If you blow it up,
I swear I won't let you do me!
**[03:10] ---**
That's not fair!
That's breach of contract!
**[03:13] ---**
Doing me wasn't in the contract,
so I can refuse to if I want!
**[03:19] ---**
Do...?
**[03:21] ---**
What was she gonna let him do...?
**[03:24] ---**
Mariko... What exactly
is this "doing" business?
**[03:30] ---**
Well, you see, Chief...
**[03:32] ---**
What?! "Do" as in that "do"?!
**[03:38] ---**
Chief...!
**[03:39] ---**
Dad!
**[03:41] ---**
Oh no! He's fainted!
**[03:45] ---**
What now, Sunabozu?
**[03:47] ---**
Seems you can't afford
to destroy the well now...
**[03:51] ---**
Mariko is hot, after all...
**[03:56] ---**
Alright! Here's my condition!
**[03:59] ---**
Condition?
**[04:00] ---**
I doubt you guys'd leave if I threatened
to destroy the well otherwise?
**[04:05] ---**
Obviously.
**[04:07] ---**
Then what if I challenged you right now
to a fight for the village?
**[04:12] ---**
A challenge...?
**[04:14] ---**
That nitro is super low-grade stuff
I found lying around,
**[04:18] ---**
so it'll still be tough
to get rid of afterwards...
**[04:20] ---**
We're game, but what about you?
**[04:25] ---**
Who was it who ran off,
tail between his legs, again?!
**[04:29] ---**
Great! It's decided!
**[04:42] ---**
Hey, is that a real bomb?
**[04:45] ---**
I wouldn't put it past that twerp...!
**[04:56] ---**
Hook detachment!
**[04:57] ---**
Wind-up!
**[04:58] ---**
Instant launching!
**[05:01] ---**
Yay!
**[05:02] ---**
Bastard...!
**[05:05] ---**
Damn you...!
**[05:12] ---**
Guess this's the end
of that infernal jackass!
**[05:16] ---**
But that means the village belongs
to those bandits now! Dammit!
**[05:21] ---**
No, if we're lucky,
they might knock each other out...!
**[05:25] ---**
Unbelievable...
**[05:28] ---**
In which case, we might
be able to kill 'em!
**[05:31] ---**
Hey, yeah! This could be our chance!
**[05:35] ---**
Despite his insanity, he's lured
them to an advantageous location,
**[05:40] ---**
as he first planned...!
**[05:46] ---**
Eep...!
**[05:50] ---**
What do you think?
**[05:51] ---**
I don't like it...!
**[05:53] ---**
It's like he wants to lure us
out there! What do we do?!
**[05:56] ---**
I'm sure he's got
somethin' up his sleeve!
**[05:59] ---**
Quit worryin'! He can't
do nothin' at this range!
**[06:03] ---**
He'd get caught up in it too!
**[06:05] ---**
We'll beat him down
before he can do anything!
**[06:14] ---**
Damn, lost him!
**[06:16] ---**
Nimble freak!
**[06:18] ---**
He can't have gotten far!
**[06:22] ---**
It's all-you-can-shoot!
**[06:26] ---**
I'm falling!
**[06:27] ---**
Bastard...!
**[06:39] ---**
Looks like it's over.
**[06:41] ---**
Talk about a pain in the ass...
**[06:48] ---**
Gonna blow up the well
'cause you can't win?
**[06:51] ---**
What a sore-ass loser...!
**[06:55] ---**
Hand over the detonator
and we'll let you live.
**[06:59] ---**
I really didn't want
to have to use this...
**[07:04] ---**
Damn you...!
**[07:20] ---**
This detonator wasn't
for the bomb in the well,
**[07:23] ---**
it was for traps I set in the ruins!
**[07:26] ---**
Didn't expect that, did ya?!
**[07:29] ---**
I can't believe you jumped into
your own trap to lure us into it...!
**[07:35] ---**
Shut up! I had no choice!
You guys wouldn't get off my tail!
**[07:38] ---**
Crap...!
**[07:52] ---**
You really have gone crazy...!
**[07:55] ---**
Shut up! Go to Hell!
**[07:58] ---**
Screw you! You're the one who's dyin'!
**[08:05] ---**
Die!
**[08:15] ---**
He used me as a springboard!
**[08:22] ---**
He used me as a springboard too!
**[08:26] ---**
You're a springboard too!
**[08:33] ---**
Special Attack! Sunabo Jet Stream Kick!
**[08:48] ---**
The Sunabozu won...!
**[08:50] ---**
The village is saved...
**[08:52] ---**
As if I'd lose.
**[08:55] ---**
Holy moly...
**[08:57] ---**
Patch these guys up. They'll be
worth a lot handed over alive...
**[09:06] ---**
What about the bomb in the well...?!
**[09:11] ---**
That reminds me, didn't you guys say,
**[09:13] ---**
"Kill that lunatic right this minute,"
or something to that effect?
**[09:21] ---**
The nitro bottles are filled
with ordinary water.
**[09:24] ---**
The poison is a fake made
from sand and ink.
**[09:30] ---**
It was a fake...!
**[09:32] ---**
Whew...!
**[09:33] ---**
Should've guessed...!
**[09:35] ---**
He'd never destroy the well like that...!
**[09:41] ---**
The whole lot of you...
**[09:44] ---**
You're nothing but poor, filthy,
stinking, spineless pushovers...!
**[09:51] ---**
You make me sick!
**[09:57] ---**
Mariko-chan...
**[10:10] ---**
Ow...!
**[10:14] ---**
How are you feeling?
**[10:25] ---**
Mari-chan...!
**[10:27] ---**
Oh, Mari-chan! Thank you
for taking care of me!
**[10:32] ---**
And that outfit...
erotic beyond words...!
**[10:39] ---**
I did make a promise...
**[10:43] ---**
So you're willing?!
**[10:46] ---**
Mari-chan.
**[10:48] ---**
You're beautiful.
**[10:50] ---**
Kanta-san...
**[11:00] ---**
Let go of me...!
**[11:06] ---**
I'm burning up...!
**[11:08] ---**
Tamehiko...?!
**[11:09] ---**
Yeah, it's me.
**[11:11] ---**
Where are we...?!
**[11:14] ---**
What am I doing here?!
**[11:16] ---**
They decided to kick you out
once you'd beaten the Edogawa Gang...
**[11:21] ---**
What?!
**[11:23] ---**
They weren't too fond of ya...
**[11:27] ---**
And I coulda been village chief
had I played my cards right...
**[11:32] ---**
So what the hell're you doing here?!
**[11:36] ---**
I'm not welcome there anymore,
thanks to someone!
**[11:39] ---**
So I thought I'd have you take me
to some town somewhere.
**[11:45] ---**
Like I can really trust a spy.
**[11:47] ---**
It's the truth! Believe me!
**[11:50] ---**
Eh?! This is all the food
and water we got?!
**[11:55] ---**
Didn't you bring anything?!
**[11:58] ---**
I used it all up...
**[12:00] ---**
Idiot!
**[12:03] ---**
What's that?
**[12:03] ---**
"Sunabozu"
**[12:05] ---**
"Dear Sunabozu, I genuinely feel
bad about what has happened."
**[12:11] ---**
"To be honest, now that my eyes are open,"
**[12:15] ---**
"I am truly terrified as I reflect
on your tyrannical ways."
**[12:19] ---**
"There's also my daughter Mariko.
I've thought hard about this."
**[12:24] ---**
"I pray that you make a safe
return to your home town."
**[12:28] ---**
"Sincerely, Village Chief."
**[12:33] ---**
Damn ingrates...!
**[12:35] ---**
We're going back! Lead the way!
**[12:40] ---**
You can't be serious! It's half a
day by truck! It'd take days on foot!
**[12:46] ---**
Plus there's no telling what'll
happen to me if I go back...!
**[12:50] ---**
Oh, okay. Then die.
**[12:53] ---**
If you don't wanna go, I'll go alone.
You can die like a dog here.
**[13:20] ---**
Let me have some too...!
**[13:24] ---**
Under normal circumstances,
I wouldn't give him a single drop...
**[13:30] ---**
That's so good...!
**[13:33] ---**
That's all the water we get at a time.
**[13:36] ---**
I'd like some more...
**[13:39] ---**
But you're right, we need to save it...
**[13:41] ---**
Anyways, are you sure
the village is this way?
**[13:45] ---**
Yes, very sure.
**[13:47] ---**
Just you watch, you bums...
You will pay for this...!
**[13:52] ---**
And...!
**[13:53] ---**
Mari-chan! Don't forget
about your promise, now!
**[13:59] ---**
Well, let's quit yakkin' and get moving!
**[14:01] ---**
Eh? I wanna rest a little more...!
**[14:04] ---**
I already told you every second counts!
**[14:07] ---**
They'll hang me if I go back there...
**[14:10] ---**
When I think about that,
my legs get heavy...
**[14:18] ---**
Alright, I'll put in
a good word for you.
**[14:20] ---**
Really?! Then put it in a contract
so you won't break your promise!
**[14:24] ---**
Oh, geez...
**[14:27] ---**
I'm acting all humble,
but I'm really the one in charge here!
**[14:31] ---**
I'll keep using this trick
to make things easier for me!
**[14:34] ---**
Keeping this sly moron's hopes up
by giving him small benefits
**[14:40] ---**
will actually benefit me in the long run!
**[14:51] ---**
Nights. 10 below freezing.
**[14:54] ---**
The sunlight that so intensely
beat down during the afternoon
**[14:57] ---**
is no longer reflected by all the sand,
**[14:59] ---**
thereby transforming the desert
into a frigid wasteland.
**[15:03] ---**
This, too, significantly
robs one of strength.
**[15:07] ---**
I'm sleepy...! I'm so tired...!
**[15:10] ---**
Idiot! Fall asleep and you'll die!
**[15:12] ---**
I don't care... Let me sleep...
**[15:16] ---**
I can't have you die here!
**[15:17] ---**
How pathetic...!
**[15:19] ---**
Why do me and this grubby stinkman...
**[15:22] ---**
...gotta hold each other?!
**[15:26] ---**
Mari-chan...!
**[15:29] ---**
Yikes, this one part's all hard...
**[15:34] ---**
I'm not into that, just so you know.
**[15:38] ---**
What was that for?!
**[15:39] ---**
Stay outta my dreams!
**[16:20] ---**
W-water...!
**[16:24] ---**
Mariko-chan...
**[16:29] ---**
Kanta-san...?
**[16:30] ---**
What is this...?!
**[16:33] ---**
The vein of water we struck
was bigger than we thought,
**[16:36] ---**
so now we have more water
than we'll ever need!
**[16:38] ---**
Anyways, Kanta-san...
**[16:41] ---**
Let me fulfill my promise to you...
**[16:44] ---**
This time it's not a dream, right?
**[16:48] ---**
Mariko-chan...
**[16:52] ---**
It was a dream...
**[17:01] ---**
Bastard!
**[17:14] ---**
The water! The water! The water...!
**[17:17] ---**
--Damn it...!
**[17:17] ---**
--My water...!
**[17:19] ---**
That just leaves us
with one-third of a canteen...
**[17:24] ---**
º Lu lu la la, li la la º
**[17:30] ---**
º Lu lu la la, li la lu, lu lu lu º
**[17:40] ---**

**[17:46] ---**
º I find myself being carried away º
**[17:49] ---**
º bound for the sand, despair, and sun º
**[17:55] ---**

**[18:24] ---**
Gimme water...!
**[18:26] ---**
I can't stand it anymore! Give me some!
**[18:29] ---**
Bastard...!
**[18:33] ---**
All life-supporting items were
finally used up halfway into the trek.
**[18:41] ---**
Dark desires and want of revenge...
**[18:43] ---**
These were the only things
now supporting the Sunabozu.
**[18:51] ---**
But, he eventually collapsed.
**[18:54] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert
is a harsh mistress.
**[18:58] ---**
"Handyman"
**[19:02] ---**
There he is.
**[19:03] ---**
Yep, this sweltering object
is definitely the Sunabozu...
**[19:08] ---**
Is he alive?
**[19:11] ---**
He's stranded! The Sunabozu
is stranded! What a loser!
**[19:18] ---**
How pathetic...
**[19:20] ---**
Let's kill 'im!
**[19:23] ---**
Geez. It's a good thing we
just happened to accept a job
**[19:28] ---**
to show a West Oasis district official
to a southern village.
**[19:32] ---**
You better thank Mariko-san.
**[19:35] ---**
She's the one who hired us to rescue you.
**[19:41] ---**
Two days earlier, at West Oasis District,
Frontier Village ♪21...
**[19:46] ---**
After all manner of difficulties,
the villagers finally struck water.
**[19:51] ---**
Their hard work had finally paid off.
**[19:57] ---**
Excuse me...
**[19:59] ---**
Are you the handymen from the
same village as the Sunabozu?
**[20:04] ---**
The truth is...
**[20:07] ---**
You threw him into
the desert, unconscious?!
**[20:11] ---**
My father- the village chief-
abducted him from the clinic
**[20:14] ---**
when I wasn't around...
**[20:19] ---**
That's great! That's hilarious!
**[20:22] ---**
How lame!
**[20:25] ---**
You're killin' me!
**[20:28] ---**
Do you know if he
made it home all right...?
**[20:34] ---**
So he got you to agree...?
**[20:38] ---**
What an idiotic promise...!
**[20:41] ---**
That lowlife pervert...!
**[20:43] ---**
But he fulfilled his promise
to protect the village.
**[20:47] ---**
And yet, we did
something horrible to him...
**[20:51] ---**
If that's the case, then won't
the bastard try to come back here?
**[20:57] ---**
Yeah, he's as tenacious and
repulsive as a poisonous snake.
**[21:02] ---**
And the fact that it's been three days
**[21:04] ---**
and he still ain't back yet must mean...
**[21:08] ---**
Too bad! He's dead!
**[21:14] ---**
He's such an idiot!
**[21:19] ---**
Please!
**[21:21] ---**
Please accept my job!
**[21:25] ---**
That's how we wound up
with the job of rescuing you
**[21:28] ---**
if we found you on our way home.
**[21:30] ---**
What a pity. Now Mariko-san
doesn't owe you squat!
**[21:36] ---**
Serves you right!
**[21:38] ---**
Still...
**[21:40] ---**
Lugging this around for five days
when it's dangerous enough alone...
**[21:44] ---**
That darn Kanta's got some tenacity...
**[21:48] ---**
Or more like a grudge...
**[21:52] ---**
And so this particular job
ended nice and neatly...
**[21:55] ---**
...with the phenomenal disgrace
of having his life saved
**[21:59] ---**
by the Kawaguchi brothers.
**[22:07] ---**
I burned out...
**[22:15] ---**
...like a blazing-white flame...
**[22:23] ---**
Loser.
**[22:39] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:47] ---**

His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:07] ---**

suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*

today! (Run again)*

(Even if forced to do jobs)*

Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabozu here!

Next time's boob lady--
**[24:00] ---**
What on earth?!
**[24:01] ---**
Let's do it, Chief! Man the torpedoes!
**[24:05] ---**
Yes, sir! Coordinates 9-9-9!
**[24:07] ---**
On the next Sunabozu-
"Master and Pupil"
**[24:09] ---**
Skip it and you'll never live it down!

It jammed...!
**[01:57] ---**
Huh?
**[02:29] ---**
Huh?!
**[02:30] ---**
It wasn't me?
**[02:33] ---**
I saved the Sunabozu's life!
**[02:39] ---**
You...!
**[02:45] ---**
Who're you, again?
**[02:47] ---**
Taiko! Koizumi Taiko!
**[02:47] ---**
"Master and Pupil"
**[02:54] ---**
You didn't notice me following you?
**[02:56] ---**
That's what you get for working
before you're fully recovered...!
**[03:02] ---**
After all, you did get stranded!
**[03:06] ---**
What a lost cause!
**[03:08] ---**
You not only got stranded,
but had to be rescued
**[03:10] ---**
by your rivals, the Kawaguchi brothers!
**[03:14] ---**
You're sure well-informed...!
**[03:15] ---**
Well, you are my master!
**[03:18] ---**
Get lost! You'll never be my pupil,
even if you follow me everywhere!
**[03:21] ---**
No! I'll keep following you
even if you don't make me your pupil!
**[03:25] ---**
Why do you wanna be my pupil anyway?!
**[03:29] ---**
Isn't it obvious?
**[03:31] ---**
To be stronger than any man!
To be more beautiful than anything!
**[03:35] ---**
And to possess a wise and
clear intellect and beat up bad guys!
**[03:42] ---**
Yes! To be the most skilled beauty
in the Great Kanto Desert!
**[03:50] ---**
Oh, my future self is so wonderful...!
**[03:57] ---**
Hey! Wait for me, Master!
**[04:02] ---**
"Water Station ♪30"
**[04:02] ---**
Welcome!
**[04:03] ---**
Come on in!
**[04:11] ---**
Yo, Kan-chan! Sounds like
you had a tough time! You ok?!
**[04:15] ---**
Hey, Sunabozu! Don't get yer ass stranded!
**[04:19] ---**
Life's long, so all
kinds of things will happen!
**[04:23] ---**
Don't listen to 'em,
even if you did get stranded!
**[04:27] ---**
It's that Sunabozu guy who got stranded!
**[04:30] ---**
Let's go before we get dumb too!
**[04:33] ---**
You're quite the celebrity, Master!
**[04:36] ---**
Why?! Why?!
**[04:38] ---**
The Sunabozu?
**[04:39] ---**
Yep! We saved his butt!
**[04:43] ---**
The minute he saw us, he was all crying
and saying how he was saved!
**[04:51] ---**
Haruo! Are you the one spreading rumors?!
**[04:55] ---**
--Damn you!
**[04:55] ---**
--Eh?! Despite being a handyman?!
**[04:58] ---**
He's so completely pathetic.
**[05:01] ---**
If he had any sense of shame,
he'd never set foot in this town again.
**[05:07] ---**
How lame!
**[05:08] ---**
He even pissed off the villagers
who hired him as a bodyguard!
**[05:11] ---**
And then he gets stranded...!
**[05:14] ---**
How dare you brothers
spread untrue rumors about me...!
**[05:21] ---**
What's so funny?! Huh?!
**[05:23] ---**
You know it's funny, loser!
**[05:29] ---**
How uncool!
**[05:31] ---**
Yeah, loser!
**[05:33] ---**
This calls for another bomb
in their toilet...!
**[05:38] ---**
Wow! That was pathetic, Master!
**[05:42] ---**
Anyway, Master, about being your pupil--
**[05:45] ---**
Oh! If it isn't Kanta-kun!
**[05:48] ---**
I hear you had a rough time.
Are you all better now?
**[05:53] ---**
Oh, Mizuta-kun...!
**[05:56] ---**
I'm so envious!
**[05:58] ---**
How I'd love to live a life of
thrills and adventure as you do!
**[06:02] ---**
No!
**[06:04] ---**
Mizuta-kun! Don't do anything dangerous!
**[06:06] ---**
Hey! You're too close to Wataru-san!
**[06:08] ---**
Calling him by his given name?!
You suck-up!
**[06:12] ---**
Come, now! Let's all just get along!
**[06:19] ---**
See you later, Kanta-kun!
**[06:21] ---**
You really must tell me
about your adventures sometime!
**[06:25] ---**
Who was that pompous man?
**[06:30] ---**
I'm so jealous...
**[06:31] ---**
Eh?
**[06:32] ---**
Mizuta Wataru, 20, unemployed.
**[06:35] ---**
Always has over 10 girlfriends.
**[06:38] ---**
Also known as the Harem Prince.
**[06:40] ---**
A miracle man who's
supported by his women!
**[06:42] ---**
Ick! How pathetic!
**[06:44] ---**
Fool! How can you say that?!
**[06:48] ---**
Living every single day in happiness,
surrounded by gorgeous women!
**[06:53] ---**
The ultimate male dream!
Such romanticism!
**[06:59] ---**
Lame.
**[07:01] ---**
A real man...
**[07:04] ---**
...works and fights as he sweats blood!
**[07:07] ---**
He protects his family from the
cruel environment and vile fiends!
**[07:10] ---**
He wins his food and brings it home!
**[07:14] ---**
Ooh, oily...!
**[07:18] ---**
Yes, that is a real man!
**[07:22] ---**
You're hardcore in more ways than one...
**[07:29] ---**
I'm not at full strength,
and now I'm a laughingstock...
**[07:33] ---**
Man, I am so jealous of Mizuta-kun...!
**[07:37] ---**
That's just it! If you make me
your pupil, you'll never be lonely!
**[07:41] ---**
Plus I can help take care of you!
**[07:44] ---**
Maybe I'd consider one
of Mizuta-kun's hotties,
**[07:47] ---**
but not some puny,
flat-chested runt like you...!
**[07:53] ---**
It appears the time to show it has come!
**[07:58] ---**
Stop! I don't wanna see your no-boobs!
**[08:01] ---**
Here it is!
**[08:06] ---**
She's one hot mama!
**[08:08] ---**
Isn't she?
**[08:09] ---**
W-who is she?!
**[08:11] ---**
My mother!
**[08:14] ---**
Understand now? I'm the
daughter of this "hot mama"!
**[08:20] ---**
Which means that I have
the same genes as her...!
**[08:35] ---**
Alright! I'll test you!
**[08:40] ---**
Get your bug dumplings here!
**[08:41] ---**
30% off all used items today!
**[08:45] ---**
Exactly how are you
going to test me, Master?
**[08:49] ---**
Uh huh...
**[08:50] ---**
Master...!
**[08:52] ---**
Master...?
**[08:54] ---**
Master?!
**[08:55] ---**
That alright?
**[08:56] ---**
I suppose...
**[08:57] ---**
Master! What're you doing? Why--
**[09:00] ---**
Things're all set here.
**[09:01] ---**
Eh?
**[09:01] ---**
Oh, is that her?
**[09:03] ---**
Eh?
**[09:04] ---**
She's a tiny one,
but there's plenty of work for her...
**[09:07] ---**
Eh?
**[09:08] ---**
I'm not fully better after all,
so you can do some jobs for a while...
**[09:13] ---**
Eh?!
**[09:15] ---**
Let's see, first off
is Hashimoto-san's request!
**[09:18] ---**
W-w-wait!
**[09:21] ---**
I want to be a super-skilled beauty...!
**[09:24] ---**
Fool!
**[09:25] ---**
Didn't you say you
wanted to be my pupil?!
**[09:27] ---**
Yes...!
**[09:28] ---**
Didn't you say you'd
do anything I say?!
**[09:30] ---**
Yes!
**[09:30] ---**
Then listen...!
**[09:32] ---**
Being a handyman is the coolest
and most hardcore job in the desert!
**[09:37] ---**
Whether or not I make you my pupil
depends on how you handle it!
**[09:45] ---**
Understood! I'll do it! So I can
be a super-skilled beauty...!
**[09:50] ---**
Alright, then!
**[10:06] ---**
It's too much...!
**[10:10] ---**
That's a might
lotta fertilizer ya gathered!
**[10:13] ---**
Thank you...!
**[10:15] ---**
Oh, could I also ask ya
to deliver somethin'?
**[10:19] ---**
Eh?!
**[10:19] ---**
Oh? I'd done heard handymen'll
do anythin' for money...
**[10:25] ---**
A-all right!
**[10:29] ---**
This is the life!
Raking it in just sitting here!
**[10:36] ---**
Yeah. Yeah!
**[10:38] ---**
It's obvious why I've had
no luck with girls so far!
**[10:48] ---**
They were all strong, independent women!
**[10:52] ---**
But this time I'll take that
lower-than-garbage, genderless brat
**[10:55] ---**
and reforge her mind, body, and spirit!
**[11:05] ---**
I can't reach the button in back...
**[11:09] ---**
I'll mold her into a
proficient assistant handyman!
**[11:17] ---**
Oh, you! Don't touch me there!
**[11:20] ---**
Sorry...!
**[11:22] ---**
I, with my own two hands,
shall raise my ideal woman!
**[11:29] ---**
Oh, Wataru-san! Kiss me!
**[11:31] ---**
No, me!
**[11:33] ---**
Oh, my! Whatever shall I do?
**[11:38] ---**
You're thinking way too small,
Mizuta-kun...!
**[11:42] ---**
First, I'll use that runt
as a guinea pig,
**[11:46] ---**
and then in the future,
gather all the ideal women I raised!
**[11:50] ---**
In this desert, I shall build
an Amusement Land all my own!
**[12:15] ---**
Delivery for you...!
**[12:20] ---**
Delivery for you!
**[12:24] ---**
Delivery for you!
**[12:27] ---**
Um, delivery from Hashimoto-san!

**[12:46] ---**

**[13:11] ---**

**[14:07] ---**
It's horrible! And uncool...!
**[14:11] ---**
What are you doing?
**[14:12] ---**
Master! I can't go on...!
**[14:16] ---**
You're a handyman. Handymen are
handy 'cause they do anything.
**[14:20] ---**
Yes, but...!
**[14:22] ---**
But I want to do real jobs
like help you get rid of bandits!
**[14:29] ---**
Taiko. Do you know why
I was able to beat Onuma Jiro?
**[14:36] ---**
'Cause I'm a super-skilled handyman!
**[14:43] ---**
At the time, the conditions
were in his favor.
**[14:46] ---**
But it was because I'm a handyman
that I'm alive today!
**[14:52] ---**
He was definitely
a top-class sharpshooter.
**[14:55] ---**
He must've trained quite a lot.
**[14:58] ---**
But that's all he had going for him.
**[15:02] ---**
Yes! Fighting and living are the same!
**[15:06] ---**
Ever-changing conditions!
Unpredictable storms of change!
**[15:12] ---**
One must promptly and accurately
ascertain situations during these
**[15:15] ---**
and move with swiftness and flexibility!
**[15:17] ---**
Confidence backed up by your
flexible brain and abundant experience!
**[15:22] ---**
The only way to achieve that
is to experience many things!
**[15:26] ---**
And the ones who can do that
while earning money
**[15:29] ---**
are those known as handymen!
**[15:38] ---**
Well? Cool, huh?
**[15:41] ---**
V-v-very!
**[15:45] ---**
Master! I'll go work my very hardest!
**[15:49] ---**
Good! Think of it all as
personal fertilizer as you do so!
**[15:53] ---**
Right!
**[16:01] ---**
Now to use this chance
to spend a bunch of money!
**[16:09] ---**
Oh, Kan-chan!
**[16:11] ---**
Yo. I'm here to pick up Taiko's pay.
**[16:14] ---**
Oh, right.
**[16:17] ---**
What should I buy first?!
**[16:18] ---**
Here you are.
**[16:22] ---**
What's this?
**[16:23] ---**
Her bill.
**[16:24] ---**
Eh?
**[16:25] ---**
I advanced the money,
so I'll need you to pay immediately.
**[16:29] ---**
W-wha--
**[16:31] ---**
What?!
**[16:37] ---**
I'm not so sure
about that girl, Kan-chan.
**[16:40] ---**
She trips and scatters fertilizer,
fills chimneys with soot,
**[16:44] ---**
and breaks goods she's delivering.
**[16:47] ---**
She's a real mess!
**[16:48] ---**
Eh?! Really?!
**[16:50] ---**
Yep! He's all talk! He's really
nothing great, that Sunabozu!
**[16:59] ---**
Yeah, that girl took jobs
under your name...
**[17:04] ---**
That can't be good.
**[17:07] ---**
And you got stranded the other day,
**[17:09] ---**
so your reputation's
taken a big nosedive lately.
**[17:21] ---**
Where is she?! I heard she's
walking the Heracles Goldion Beetle
**[17:24] ---**
for Kawahara-san on 4th Street, but...!
**[17:31] ---**
What's that smoke...?
**[17:38] ---**
That smells great...!
**[17:58] ---**
Master!
**[17:59] ---**
You dumbass...!
**[18:01] ---**
But I was hungry!
**[18:03] ---**
He told you this Heracles Gol-- Um...
**[18:09] ---**
This bug with the complicated
name is a legendary insect
**[18:12] ---**
that's dear to our client,
the rich Kawahara-san!
**[18:16] ---**
But aren't bugs meant to be eaten?!
**[18:18] ---**
It's not normal to feed them
and take them for walks!
**[18:22] ---**
Rich people are weirdos! And yet, you--
**[18:33] ---**
Don't hit me!
**[18:39] ---**
Ouch! Stop!
**[18:51] ---**
Hello...!
**[18:52] ---**
Oh! Tama-chan! Did you
enjoy your little walkie?
**[18:59] ---**
What are you doing?
**[19:01] ---**
You'll break, err, uh...
**[19:03] ---**
Hand her here this instant!
**[19:05] ---**
No!
**[19:17] ---**
What have you done
to my poor Tama-chan...?!
**[19:20] ---**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[19:23] ---**
--Tama-chan was pedigreed
and very expensive!
**[19:25] ---**
--Just endure it!
**[19:26] ---**
--What on earth do you
have to say for yourself?!
**[19:27] ---**
--It's for my big long-term plan...!
**[19:28] ---**
--I did have my doubts, seeing
as you were stranded recently...!
**[19:31] ---**
I should've known better!
**[19:32] ---**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
I swear I'll make it up to you!
**[19:35] ---**
On my honor as the Sunabozu!
**[19:50] ---**
I'm in huge debt again...
**[19:56] ---**
Oh, if it isn't Kanta-kun!
**[19:59] ---**
What're you doing here?
**[20:04] ---**
Oh, Mizuta-kun...!
**[20:09] ---**
Just watching the sun go down...
**[20:11] ---**
Ah...
**[20:14] ---**
What a pretty sunset...
**[20:18] ---**
Yeah...
**[20:19] ---**
You don't seem in very high spirits.
And what happened to your face?
**[20:24] ---**
Well, you see...
**[20:27] ---**
I'll kill you first, and then me!
**[20:29] ---**
Stop!
**[20:30] ---**
So I was just your toy...
**[20:34] ---**
And me...
**[20:35] ---**
And me...
**[20:36] ---**
And me...
**[20:38] ---**
W-wait! I can explain!
My love is eternal!
**[20:43] ---**
Eternal...!
**[20:48] ---**
I tried to love them all equally,
but things turned a bit sour...
**[20:53] ---**
I'd say more than "a bit"...
**[20:55] ---**
Whoops. I gotta go
apologize to Izumi-chan next.
**[20:59] ---**
See you, Kanta-kun.
**[21:01] ---**
Yeah. See you later...
**[21:09] ---**
Hmm. I guess even
Mizuta-kun has it tough...
**[21:22] ---**
Yeah. I'll hafta work hard, too...!
**[21:25] ---**
For my dream...
**[21:39] ---**
Found ya!
**[21:40] ---**
Soon after, people began to spot
an odd pair in the Great Kanto Desert.
**[21:46] ---**
Ok! We attack on my signal!
**[21:48] ---**
Right, Master!
**[21:51] ---**
The Sunabozu and his pupil, Kosuna.
**[21:53] ---**
But between them was
neither respect nor trust...
**[22:00] ---**
...only revolting desires
and devious selfishness.
**[22:04] ---**
May happiness come
to this wretched pair...!
**[22:08] ---**
Let's do it, Kosuna!
**[22:10] ---**
Right, Master!
**[22:39] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:47] ---**
*One more big circle...*
**[22:51] ---**
*A billowing raincoat...
(It's a cape!)*
**[22:55] ---**
*Oh, let's not forget
the sunshade now...*
**[23:00] ---**
*(His heart is pitch black!
His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:06] ---**
*Give him a Winchester and
suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*
**[23:22] ---**
*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*
**[23:25] ---**
*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*
**[23:29] ---**
*He'll go forth again tomorrow!
(Go forth again)*
**[23:33] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:35] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:37] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady!)*
**[23:39] ---**
*He'll rush on ahead, life
on the line! Rush on ahead!*
**[23:47] ---**
**[23:57] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabozu here!
**[23:58] ---**
Sorry about this episode!
There were no boobies to be had!
**[24:01] ---**
That's all right, Master!
Having none has its advantages, too!
**[24:04] ---**
--Like that makes me any happier!
--You're hopeless...
**[24:06] ---**
On the next Sunabozu-
"Dog-Girl and Rock"
**[24:09] ---**
Miss it and there'll be
even less boobies!

"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[00:17] ---**
*I am the one!*
**[00:20] ---**
*Push on ahead as you like, yeah*
**[00:24] ---**
*Oh, listen closely to me*
**[00:28] ---**
*and speak the name
of the desert god*
**[00:32] ---**
*Clench your teeth*
**[00:36] ---**
*When your heart starts
to tremble with heat...*
**[00:40] ---**
*Stop it! It'll only
bring destruction*
**[00:46] ---**
*Let's do it, oh, angel*
**[00:50] ---**
*Now is the time to
stand up and be strong*
**[00:55] ---**
*A sad history, a
hidden big story*
**[00:59] ---**
*That's the mystery*
**[01:02] ---**
*There's nothing certain
about what tomorrow holds*
**[01:10] ---**
*so living through this moment*
**[01:15] ---**
*is my mission alone*
**[01:36] ---**
It is said to have watched over
the history of man since antiquity...
**[01:42] ---**
A living witness of the Dark Age...
**[01:46] ---**
It is said to have continually defied
the hand of man to remain there...
**[01:54] ---**
Even to this day, in the age
of the Great Kanto Desert...
**[02:04] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[02:07] ---**
"Dog-Girl and Rock"
**[02:17] ---**
A rock...?
**[02:19] ---**
It's no ordinary rock.
**[02:22] ---**
You may have heard of it yourself,
it's called "Dog-Girl Rock"...
**[02:28] ---**
Dog-Girl Rock?
**[02:34] ---**
You know, the one that curses
you if you try to move it...
**[02:41] ---**
Now that I look back,
it WAS strangely cheap,
**[02:45] ---**
but there's a highway nearby
and it could have water,
**[02:49] ---**
so I bought the land that
the Dog-Girl Rock stands on.
**[02:53] ---**
So, first I thought I'd try to
get rid of the rock, you know?
**[02:58] ---**
But every single contractor
turned me away.
**[03:01] ---**
Desert people do believe
in such superstitions...
**[03:06] ---**
I was at my wit's end,
so I offered a reward to volunteers.
**[03:14] ---**
Curse, my ass! I'll just use my
super strength to smash it to pieces!
**[03:19] ---**
You're so cool, Boss!
**[03:23] ---**
It's no match for
the West Oasis' mightiest!
**[03:35] ---**
Boss...
**[03:37] ---**
It's the curse!
The curse of the Dog-Girl Rock!
**[03:42] ---**
If I just destroy that rock,
we can buy a new home...!
**[03:47] ---**
You can do it, Honey!
**[03:49] ---**
I'm hungry, Daddy...!
**[03:51] ---**
Just hold on...!
**[03:57] ---**
Honey!
**[03:59] ---**
My back...!
**[04:01] ---**
--It's the curse...!
**[04:02] ---**
--Honey!
**[04:03] ---**
--The curse of the Dog-Girl Rock!
**[04:03] ---**
--I'm hungry!
**[04:09] ---**
Say your prayers, Dog-Girl Rock!
**[04:11] ---**
Behold the might of my super battle tank,
Kasumi-chan Mark II!
**[04:17] ---**
What?! Engine trouble?!
**[04:20] ---**
W-w-wha...?!
**[04:25] ---**
It's the curse...!
**[04:31] ---**
I'm scared...!
**[04:33] ---**
I hired many others,
but they were all gutless cowards...
**[04:39] ---**
Is that so...?
**[04:41] ---**
I beg you!
**[04:43] ---**
The desert's jack-of-all-trades,
the Handyman Guild,
**[04:45] ---**
is my only hope now!
**[04:47] ---**
Please! Rid me of that infernal rock!
**[04:50] ---**
Alright, just keep your face away...!
**[04:54] ---**
--Dog-Girl Rock?!
**[04:54] ---**
--Dog-Girl Rock?!
**[04:56] ---**
I know, but he is offering
500,000 per person...!
**[05:01] ---**
We'll pass!
**[05:02] ---**
Eh?
**[05:04] ---**
But it's 500,000!
**[05:06] ---**
It's just that we don't do
dinky jobs like that no more!
**[05:11] ---**
It's not that we're afraid!
**[05:13] ---**
Yeah! Not one bit!
**[05:15] ---**
It's just not our thing!
**[05:18] ---**
Dog-Girl Rock?!
**[05:20] ---**
Yes, he wants it removed--
**[05:23] ---**
My old injury...!
**[05:25] ---**
D- D- Dog-Girl Rock?!
**[05:27] ---**
He IS offering 500,000...
**[05:29] ---**
No can do! I'm not headed that way!
**[05:33] ---**
Too bad it wasn't in
a different direction...!
**[05:37] ---**
Dog-Girl Rock?!
**[05:41] ---**
I'll be killed! I'll be cursed!
**[05:44] ---**
"Water Parlor"
**[05:46] ---**
Eh? Remove the Dog-Girl Rock?
**[05:56] ---**
I was hoping I could
ask you to do it...!
**[06:00] ---**
Master! Isn't Dog-Girl Rock
that famous one?!
**[06:03] ---**
Huh? It's just a rock.
**[06:06] ---**
So you'll do it?!
**[06:08] ---**
You hardly need me to do
some paltry job like that!
**[06:12] ---**
No, but everyone else ran away...!
**[06:16] ---**
Cowards!
**[06:18] ---**
And...
**[06:26] ---**
...let's not forget recent events.
**[06:29] ---**
Your reputation has dropped a bit,
**[06:32] ---**
so this is the perfect chance
to let the world know once more
**[06:37] ---**
that the Sunabozu is the
greatest handyman in the West Oasis-
**[06:41] ---**
no- the Great Kanto Desert!
**[06:44] ---**
The greatest handyman...
**[06:47] ---**
Kan-chan! I mean, Sunabozu!
You're the only one who can do it!
**[06:53] ---**
Ordinary handymen just won't cut it!
**[06:56] ---**
Really, you're the
only one I can rely on!
**[07:02] ---**
Alright! Though it will be a
super-duper-ultra cinch for me!
**[07:10] ---**
It's the curse already!
The curse of the Dog-Girl Rock!
**[07:13] ---**
You idiot! There's no such thing!
**[07:15] ---**
Hey, Shopkeep! Your chairs're crap!
**[07:18] ---**
Eh? What happened?
**[07:24] ---**
No! It's the curse! The curse!
**[07:44] ---**
What's with you?!
**[07:45] ---**
It's just...!
**[07:47] ---**
Are you still scared?!
**[07:48] ---**
You're not afraid of the curse, Master?!
**[07:51] ---**
Huh?!
**[07:52] ---**
I mean, it was created by
arrows and swords during the wars
**[07:55] ---**
long before the Dark Age...
**[07:59] ---**
So?
**[08:00] ---**
They say it's been cursed ever since,
**[08:02] ---**
and that it's remained untouched
for over a thousand years!
**[08:06] ---**
Who do you think I am?!
**[08:08] ---**
Don't put me in the
same boat as those chickens!
**[08:15] ---**
That bastard! Is he calling us chickens?!
**[08:19] ---**
We can't let him beat us, Bro...
**[08:21] ---**
But I'm scared...!
**[08:24] ---**
Imbecile! Think if he
does remove Dog-Girl Rock!
**[08:28] ---**
We'll be cowards, he'll be the
ultimate handyman who beat the curse,
**[08:32] ---**
and he'll always be better than us!
**[08:35] ---**
Yeah, but...!
**[08:37] ---**
Let's go! We're gettin' there first!
**[08:39] ---**
Right!
**[08:42] ---**
I-i-is it the curse...?!
**[08:45] ---**
You clod! There's no such thing!
**[08:50] ---**
Is this...
**[08:52] ---**
Is it...
**[08:56] ---**
What's that?!
**[09:10] ---**
T-t-the curse...!
**[09:12] ---**
It's not the stupid curse!
**[09:15] ---**
So-called "curses" just scare people
into acting all crazy
**[09:20] ---**
and getting hurt and seeing weird stuff!
**[09:23] ---**
But...!
**[09:24] ---**
Look!
**[09:27] ---**
This spot is famous for rockslides.
**[09:30] ---**
It's nothing to be worried
about if you're careful,
**[09:33] ---**
but since you're focused on curses,
you're prone to walk into danger.
**[09:40] ---**
Let's go!
**[09:42] ---**
Wait for me...!
**[09:46] ---**
It really is the curse...!
**[09:48] ---**
You alright, Bro...?
**[09:56] ---**
You're worried about the curse too,
aren't you, Master?
**[09:59] ---**
Huh?!
**[10:00] ---**
You did just walk into danger
because you were worried about it!
**[10:05] ---**
I'll have you know...!
**[10:08] ---**
What's wrong?
**[10:10] ---**
The air cooler I got
a while ago is acting up...
**[10:15] ---**
Master...!
**[10:16] ---**
Damn! I just replaced that stuff!
**[10:19] ---**
Dammit! They jipped me!
**[10:35] ---**
Master...!
**[10:36] ---**
It's the--
**[10:37] ---**
It ain't the curse!
It's an ordinary pitfall!
**[10:43] ---**
--Master!
**[10:43] ---**
--My stomach...!
**[10:50] ---**
It's the--
**[10:51] ---**
It ain't the curse! It was
the water I had this morning!
**[11:00] ---**
Master...
**[11:01] ---**
No...! It ain't the curse...!
**[11:05] ---**
I didn't say it was...
**[11:07] ---**
What, then?!
**[11:09] ---**
You know how it's called Dog-Girl Rock?
**[11:13] ---**
What about it?!
**[11:14] ---**
What do you think "Dog-Girl" refers to?
**[11:17] ---**
Hell if I know!
**[11:20] ---**
Well, it IS called "Dog-Girl", so...
**[11:24] ---**
So...?!
**[11:27] ---**
Something like this?
**[11:41] ---**
Woof!
**[11:46] ---**
So irresistible...!
**[11:51] ---**
I-it ain't the curse!
It ain't the curse, got it?!
**[11:55] ---**
You admitted it yourself.
**[11:57] ---**
Shut up!
**[11:58] ---**
Let's hurry! Can't just sit around
with my cooler busted!
**[12:04] ---**
Come on, Taiko! Let go!
I don't care if you're scared!
**[12:08] ---**
Let go already! Come on!
**[12:10] ---**
It IS telling us to stay away...!
**[12:15] ---**
Come on! Come on...!
**[12:29] ---**
W-w-we're really here...!
**[12:32] ---**
So that's the Dog-Girl Rock...
**[12:34] ---**
See! I told you it
was just a stupid rock!
**[12:37] ---**
Master! Don't...!
**[12:40] ---**
This rock ain't so special--
**[12:47] ---**
What in the...?!
**[12:53] ---**
I-i-it's the Dog-Girl...!
**[13:07] ---**
Oh, this is a rare treat...
**[13:18] ---**
This is the Dog-Girl...?
**[13:20] ---**
No!
**[13:22] ---**
You! What is Repo Man Amagumo
doing here?!
**[13:25] ---**
Amagumo?!
**[13:26] ---**
I've heard about you!
**[13:28] ---**
You're the Repo Man of Terror
who collects not just debts, but souls!
**[13:34] ---**
It's not quite the "souls"
you'd expect, though...
**[13:38] ---**
Wow! You two are friends, Master?!
**[13:41] ---**
--Hell, no!
**[13:41] ---**
--Hell, no!
**[13:46] ---**
Didn't expect to find you here...
**[13:49] ---**
What, did you get fired
'cause you screwed up last time?!
**[13:55] ---**
Don't worry. I'm just on an errand.
**[13:58] ---**
Anyway, I heard about you, Sunabozu...
**[14:02] ---**
I hear you not only got stranded,
**[14:04] ---**
but hired an exceptionally
capable assistant as well?
**[14:08] ---**
E-e-eh?! Does "exceptionally
capable assistant" refer to me?!
**[14:13] ---**
Moron!
**[14:16] ---**
Why are you here?!
**[14:17] ---**
Wanna know?
**[14:19] ---**
Don't act big!
**[14:20] ---**
To destroy this Dog-Girl Rock
before you do, obviously.
**[14:26] ---**
Eh?!
**[14:28] ---**
Don't take it personally!
**[14:30] ---**
I owe the landowner, Murahama-san,
for getting me some repo work!
**[14:35] ---**
Why, you...!
**[14:41] ---**
Impossible...!
**[14:42] ---**
Master! There's white mist coming out...!
**[14:45] ---**
Huh? I don't see anything...
**[14:48] ---**
T-this is pure bliss...!
**[14:58] ---**
What's that dumbass thinking?!
**[15:06] ---**
What's with him?!
**[15:07] ---**
It's the curse...! The curse!
**[15:09] ---**
Don't be dumb! He probably
just ate something bad!
**[15:13] ---**
But you saw it, too! The white mist
that came out of that rock...!
**[15:18] ---**
Why do you keep saying that?!
I didn't see any such thing!
**[15:22] ---**
Eh?!
**[15:22] ---**
Anyways, that was close!
**[15:25] ---**
This jerk almost took off
with the 500,000 yen reward...!
**[15:32] ---**
Hey! Blast a 40-mm into that--
**[15:35] ---**
No! I don't care about the reward, Master!
Let's just go home!
**[15:40] ---**
What the hell're you freaking out for?!
Just blast it already!
**[15:43] ---**
No!
**[15:44] ---**
Fine! I'll do it!
**[15:46] ---**
Master...!
**[15:47] ---**
Shut up, you chicken!
**[15:49] ---**
We're chicken, huh?!
**[15:52] ---**
You...!
**[15:53] ---**
We brothers...
**[15:55] ---**
...ain't no...
**[15:56] ---**
--...chickens.
**[15:56] ---**
--...chickens.
**[15:57] ---**
You out to steal my thunder too?!
**[16:03] ---**
Hey! What happened?!
**[16:06] ---**
N- Natsuko... Forgive your brother...
**[16:12] ---**
A girl...!
**[16:15] ---**
The Dog-Girl's... curse...!
**[16:24] ---**
No! Let's quit, Master! Let's go home!
**[16:28] ---**
I'm sure the curse got them too
on their way here...!
**[16:35] ---**
That just makes things all the better!
**[16:43] ---**
I'll obliterate this rock
**[16:45] ---**
and let the cowards of the world
know once more
**[16:49] ---**
just how super-brave and awesome
the great Sunabozu-sama is!
**[16:52] ---**
Master...!
**[16:58] ---**
What the hell...?!
**[16:59] ---**
There wasn't a single cloud earlier...!
**[17:04] ---**
What the...?!
**[17:16] ---**
Ow...
**[17:18] ---**
Darn you, stupid Dog-Girl Rock...!
**[17:23] ---**
Master?! Where are you, Master?!
**[17:28] ---**
That's the white mist I saw earlier...!
**[17:33] ---**
Master...!
**[17:44] ---**
Where am I?
**[17:48] ---**
I feel really good...!
**[17:57] ---**
She has a weird dog suit on...
**[18:01] ---**
...but she's a babe...
**[18:03] ---**
...with mind-boggling boobies!
**[18:16] ---**
This is that creepy feeling
I've gotten used to...!
**[18:20] ---**
C-c-could that black fog be...
**[18:25] ---**
...Master's carnal desires?!
**[18:33] ---**
Have a drink!
**[18:38] ---**
Yum! This is some
top-quality mineral water!
**[18:43] ---**
I'm glad you like it!
**[18:52] ---**
I'd like some of this, too!
**[18:54] ---**
No... Don't...!
**[18:56] ---**
Oh, come, now!
**[19:02] ---**
He's fighting that terrible curse
back with his superhuman lust!
**[19:09] ---**
Terrifying...! It's ugly,
pitch black, and goopy...!
**[19:13] ---**
Yes, just like sludge...!
**[19:16] ---**
Eww! Nasty! It's all gooey...!
**[19:23] ---**
Come back here...!
**[19:26] ---**
If you want me,
then you'll have to catch me...!
**[19:30] ---**
Ok by me!
**[19:41] ---**
A battle between grudge and desire!
It's hell!
**[19:44] ---**
This is true hell on earth!
**[19:56] ---**
Don't worry! I'll treat you
kindly from now on...!
**[20:00] ---**
W-wait...!
**[20:01] ---**
Dog-Girl-chan...!
**[20:04] ---**
No!
**[20:05] ---**
You're all mine...!
**[20:32] ---**
I'm alive...
**[20:34] ---**
Where's Master?!
**[20:39] ---**
What're you doing, Master?!
**[20:44] ---**
Aw, I was asleep...?
**[20:48] ---**
I had such a nice dream!
**[20:50] ---**
Dream...?! That was a dream?!
**[20:55] ---**
Look at that!
**[20:57] ---**
The Dog-Girl Rock...!
**[20:59] ---**
I guess it fell down
during that sandstorm...
**[21:05] ---**
Fools! Self-defeating yourselves
because of some scary "curse"...!
**[21:10] ---**
Now do you see how super brave
and awesome I really am?!
**[21:18] ---**
Hey! What're you doin'?! Let's go!
**[21:21] ---**
Coming...!
**[21:23] ---**
Now to collect that 500,000...!
**[21:29] ---**
After that, stories about the curse
of the Dog-Girl Rock died out.
**[21:34] ---**
Rumors about the Ghost of the Desert
conquering an evil grudge
**[21:39] ---**
spread like wildfire,
and the name "Sunabozu" echoed
**[21:43] ---**
throughout the Great Kanto Desert
once more.
**[21:52] ---**
But was that terrifying spectacle
really a dream? If not...
**[22:03] ---**
Hey! What's the hold-up?!
**[22:07] ---**
As that would mean Master
is even scarier than the curse,
**[22:12] ---**
I try not to think about it anymore.
**[22:39] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:47] ---**
*One more big circle...*
**[22:51] ---**
*A billowing raincoat...
(It's a cape!)*
**[22:55] ---**
*Oh, let's not forget
the sunshade now...*
**[23:00] ---**
*(His heart is pitch black!
His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:06] ---**
*Give him a Winchester and
suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*
**[23:22] ---**
*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*
**[23:25] ---**
*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*
**[23:29] ---**
*He'll go forth again tomorrow!
(Go forth again)*
**[23:33] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:35] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:37] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady!)*
**[23:39] ---**
*He'll rush on ahead, life
on the line! Rush on ahead!*
**[23:57] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabozu here!
**[23:58] ---**
--How was Murahama-san's performance?!
--It sucked.
**[24:02] ---**
*faceplant*
**[24:02] ---**
Acting is just for show!
Important people wouldn't understand!
**[24:05] ---**
But you're important, woof!
**[24:07] ---**
On the next Sunabozu-
"Life and Game"
**[24:09] ---**
Miss it and it's bankruptcy!

**[01:45] ---**
Quit it, jerk-ass! What's the big--
**[01:48] ---**
Y-you...!
**[01:52] ---**
Asagiri Junko!
**[01:55] ---**
Long time no see!
**[02:02] ---**
What kind of look is that
when there's a hot chick to see you?!
**[02:06] ---**
It's 'cause bad crap
always happens when you show up...!
**[02:11] ---**
I'll have you know
I have a good job for you...
**[02:15] ---**
Master!
**[02:18] ---**
"Master?"
**[02:20] ---**
She's my pupil, Taiko!
**[02:22] ---**
YOU have a pupil?!
**[02:24] ---**
Wow! What huge breasts!
**[02:27] ---**
--The Sunabouzu has a pupil?!
**[02:28] ---**
--Who's this woman, Master?
**[02:30] ---**
Asagiri Junko. A living example of
the kind of woman NOT to be like!
**[02:36] ---**
Learn from her chest only!
**[02:37] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[02:38] ---**
But this is my first time seeing
such large breasts in real life, Master.
**[02:43] ---**
Aside from fat old ladies...
**[02:45] ---**
Hold on! I thought your mom
had ones this big?
**[02:49] ---**
Eep!
**[02:52] ---**
I also meant aside
from my mother, of course!
**[02:56] ---**
Whew, that's good!
**[02:59] ---**
Tryin' to flaunt your stuff, eh?!
That trick won't work on me anymore!
**[03:04] ---**
What?
**[03:05] ---**
I've been promised
a VERY bountiful future!
**[03:09] ---**
What'll happen to that chest and
those looks five years down the road?
**[03:14] ---**
Like they say, flowers live short lives!
**[03:17] ---**
Gah!
**[03:19] ---**
By the time she's all withered and old,
Taiko'll have blossomed!
**[03:23] ---**
I'm gonna raise her to suit my needs...!
**[03:28] ---**
In five years...
In five years, I'll be all--
**[03:33] ---**
Maybe I should get married soon...
**[03:35] ---**
And it'd have to be someone rich...
**[03:38] ---**
Otherwise, my love
and my breasts would be--
**[03:41] ---**
Setting the future aside and
enjoying life to the fullest right now...
**[03:47] ---**
...sounds really good to me!
**[03:49] ---**
"Life and Game"
**[03:50] ---**
You're pathetic, Master.
**[03:55] ---**
This is our client,
Kaizuka Kaoru-san, 56!
**[04:00] ---**
The Kanto's greatest
treasure hunting expert!
**[04:03] ---**
See ya.
**[04:03] ---**
H-hold on!
**[04:06] ---**
He's offering 10 million yen!
**[04:08] ---**
Don't be dumb!
**[04:09] ---**
And how do we get 10 million yen
from this decrepit old chrome-dome,
**[04:14] ---**
from this filthy, stinky old crock?!
**[04:21] ---**
He's strong!
**[04:23] ---**
This ain't no ordinary geezer!
Who is he?!
**[04:26] ---**
I told you. Kaizuka Kaoru-san, 56.
**[04:29] ---**
Kaizuka Kaoru, 56...?
**[04:35] ---**
"Kaizuka Kaoru 56 years old"
**[04:36] ---**
Who is he?
**[04:39] ---**
You don't know?!
**[04:40] ---**
He dug up the super-exciting game
that's a huge hit all over the Kanto,
**[04:44] ---**
"The Game of Life",
from some Dark Age ruins!
**[04:47] ---**
It spread throughout the world
and now he's super-duper rich!
**[04:51] ---**
A true winner at the game of life...
Kaizuka Kaoru-san!
**[04:59] ---**
Rich Man-sama!
**[05:01] ---**
Whether or not you earn the
10 million yen depends on your work!
**[05:05] ---**
But of course! So, Kaizuka-san,
what might this job be...?
**[05:10] ---**
Treasure-hunting, obviously!
**[05:13] ---**
So you're okay with the Sunabouzu?
**[05:15] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:16] ---**
As long as they don't eat much,
can carry luggage, and can do odd jobs,
**[05:20] ---**
anyone will do!
**[05:22] ---**
And these ones probably
don't each much, given their size...
**[05:24] ---**
Thank you!
**[05:26] ---**
...You!
**[05:27] ---**
Besides...
**[05:29] ---**
...you DID recommend them, Junko-chan!
I'm sure you chose well!
**[05:33] ---**
I'm so happy that you trust me so!
**[05:40] ---**
You and I ARE close, after all...
**[05:43] ---**
Close...?
**[05:44] ---**
Incidentally, who's the even tinier one?!
I wasn't told about her!
**[05:49] ---**
Oh, this is my pupil!
She's currently in training--
**[05:55] ---**
I see. Then I won't need to
divide your earnings with her.
**[05:59] ---**
Eh?!
**[06:01] ---**
OK, let's move out!
You kiddos got the luggage!
**[06:05] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[06:22] ---**
Oh, Kaoru-chan...! You're such a flirt!
**[06:26] ---**
M- Master...!
These are extremely heavy...!
**[06:30] ---**
W-what do you think's in 'em...?
**[06:33] ---**
Boy! You're dawdling! Get the lead out!
**[06:37] ---**
Understood!
**[06:45] ---**
Bandits! Go get 'em!
**[06:47] ---**
U-understood...
**[06:52] ---**
A sandstorm! I can't see a thing!
**[06:55] ---**
Boy! Go scout the area!
**[06:57] ---**
Eh?! I'll get stranded if I leave!
**[07:00] ---**
Silence! You can die AFTER
you've found the route!
**[07:02] ---**
Understood!
**[07:07] ---**
Boy! I'm hungry!
**[07:09] ---**
Understood...
**[07:11] ---**
10 million...! 10 million...!
**[07:15] ---**
10 million...! 10 million...!
**[07:18] ---**
You're a rather humble worker.
**[07:22] ---**
It's not every day you run
across a 10 million yen job!
**[07:26] ---**
Plus my dead old man said never to
defy the sun or the super-rich...!
**[07:31] ---**
Oh? I'd say you've done
plenty of defying...
**[07:35] ---**
10 million...! 10 million...!
10 million...!
**[07:37] ---**
He's lost his marbles...
**[07:39] ---**
Say.
**[07:41] ---**
For a treasure hunt by
the owner of the "Game of Life",
**[07:44] ---**
isn't this caravan a little small?
**[07:47] ---**
I'm sure he could find a ton of treasure
if he threw lots of money at it...
**[07:52] ---**
He says that's not his style.
He wants to do it like in the old days...
**[07:58] ---**
Basically, this is his hobby.
**[08:01] ---**
That's cool. But still...
**[08:05] ---**
W-what?
**[08:07] ---**
Seriously, how do you sniff it out?
**[08:10] ---**
Can you smell money or something...?
**[08:14] ---**
The money comes to me.
**[08:17] ---**
And then you get all cozy-like...!
**[08:20] ---**
H-have you let that
old geezer do it already...?
**[08:29] ---**
Jealous?
**[08:31] ---**
You're frozen with shock.
**[08:32] ---**
What?! Then I'll just have
to make you gasp in ecstasy--
**[08:38] ---**
The old guy wants his food.
**[08:40] ---**
Right! Coming right up!
**[08:43] ---**
Whew, that was close...!
**[08:47] ---**
*stare*
**[08:51] ---**
It must be tough being so small!
But keep at it!
**[08:56] ---**
Oh, I didn't mean
the size of your breasts...!
**[09:02] ---**
Big breasts are
pretty tough too, you know!
**[09:05] ---**
They really cramp your shoulders...
**[09:07] ---**
They tug at you whenever you run
and can pull your shoulder muscles...
**[09:12] ---**
You constantly fear they'll
start drooping, so you do this...!
**[09:19] ---**
Oh, they say doing this
tightens your chest muscles,
**[09:22] ---**
making it harder for your breasts to sag!
**[09:29] ---**
W-what?!
**[09:32] ---**
Gravity will have you beat in five years.
**[09:35] ---**
You're so not cute!
**[09:37] ---**
What kind of upbringing is
the Sunabouzu giving you?!
**[09:40] ---**
Disgusting! What is this?!
Go re-make it!
**[09:43] ---**
U-understood...!
**[09:50] ---**
Scheduled report. Game Master is unaware.
**[09:53] ---**
Homing signal remains active.
**[10:09] ---**
Quit it...! You're so naughty,
Kaoru-chan...!
**[10:12] ---**
M- Master... Are we there yet...?
**[10:16] ---**
Who knows...
**[10:17] ---**
Come to think of it,
have you heard where we're going?
**[10:20] ---**
Yeah, right...
**[10:22] ---**
There's treasure where we're headed.
Like he'd just blab to anyone...
**[10:28] ---**
Not even that woman?
**[10:29] ---**
Doubt it.
**[10:30] ---**
Is there a map, then?
**[10:32] ---**
Nope. It's all in the old guy's head.
**[10:36] ---**
There's no one as cautious
as a treasure hunter.
**[10:40] ---**
Even the route we've
taken is all nonsense.
**[10:43] ---**
I got absolutely no idea
where we're headed...
**[10:47] ---**
The geezer acts all carefree
but doesn't trust a soul...
**[10:51] ---**
He's a pro.
**[10:52] ---**
But this is really backbreaking...
**[10:55] ---**
It's that woman's fault...
**[10:57] ---**
It's all that
huge-boobed woman's fault...!
**[11:01] ---**
It must be tough being so small!
But keep at it!
**[11:06] ---**
Just you watch! I'll take
those giant boobs of hers and--
**[11:11] ---**
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
**[11:17] ---**
Nothing's worse than a desert trek
to an unknown destination...
**[11:22] ---**
But the worse it gets, the more
I can taste that 10 million...!
**[11:28] ---**
Yes! With 10 million, I can--
**[11:32] ---**
It's 10,000 yen a touch!
**[11:37] ---**
So 10 million yen means...
1000 touches!
**[11:42] ---**
Just thinking about squeezing
those giant boobies 1000 times
**[11:46] ---**
gives me shivers!
**[11:47] ---**
One giant-booby squeeze!
Two giant-booby squeezes!
**[11:53] ---**
Three giant-booby squeezes!
Four giant-booby squeezes!
**[11:59] ---**
Five giant-booby squeezes!
**[12:25] ---**
Looks like we're here!
**[12:26] ---**
Yes.
**[12:27] ---**
It hasn't changed a bit...
**[12:31] ---**
This is no time for resting, boy.
Go scout the area!
**[12:35] ---**
Y-yes! Understood...!
**[12:52] ---**
It certainly is quiet...
**[12:55] ---**
I get a bad feeling about this...
**[13:00] ---**
What are you so lost in thought about?
**[13:05] ---**
I've been all over and heard all kinds
of stuff from all kinds of people...
**[13:11] ---**
I thought I knew about every corner
of the Great Kanto Desert...
**[13:15] ---**
...but I've never seen
a place like this before.
**[13:18] ---**
I didn't even know they existed...
**[13:22] ---**
Say, why do you need to scout?
**[13:25] ---**
I thought it was an empty,
undeveloped region...
**[13:32] ---**
What is this weird feeling?!
**[13:36] ---**
This's definitely different
from all the ruined cities I know...
**[13:42] ---**
But I can't put my finger on it...
**[13:44] ---**
Something's not right...!
**[13:46] ---**
M- Master!
**[13:54] ---**
It would seem this is a
secret treasure hunting spot...
**[13:59] ---**
Secret...?!
**[14:00] ---**
This explains why nobody
knows about this place.
**[14:04] ---**
From the new to the old,
these are all treasure hunters...
**[14:11] ---**
M- Master?!
**[14:12] ---**
I'm picking up something...!
**[14:16] ---**
Master!
**[14:17] ---**
Stay calm!
**[14:18] ---**
Where's the enemy?!
**[14:19] ---**
Find it!
**[14:22] ---**
It should be right by us,
but I don't see it anywhere!
**[14:25] ---**
This is really bad!
**[14:27] ---**
Don't wimp out!
**[14:30] ---**
Where...? Where...?
**[14:32] ---**
Where...?! Where...?!
**[14:46] ---**
It's begun!
**[14:49] ---**
Wonderful! No one has ransacked it yet!
**[14:57] ---**
Junko-chan...
**[14:59] ---**
Why are you dressed like that...?
**[15:02] ---**
I'm gonna check it out,
since YOU won't tell me anything.
**[15:06] ---**
No, um, you see...
**[15:11] ---**
I hate when this happens!
It's a whole different ball game now!
**[15:15] ---**
I need to assess
the situation right away...!
**[15:19] ---**
I won't stop you if you insist
on going, but do take this with you.
**[15:25] ---**
What the...?! What do you have this for?!
**[15:32] ---**
Ow! Ow! Ow...!
**[15:39] ---**
It's getting closer, Master!
**[15:42] ---**
Why'd you shoot, you moron?!
**[15:43] ---**
He might've just been sizing us up,
**[15:46] ---**
but then you pretty much
said we're his enemy!
**[15:49] ---**
I- I was scared...!
**[15:52] ---**
And you missed! Shoot to kill,
or don't shoot at all!
**[15:55] ---**
That ammo's coming
outta your food budget!
**[15:57] ---**
N-no way...!
**[16:00] ---**
It's your fault if he's pissed!
**[16:02] ---**
I- I'm sorry...!
**[16:04] ---**
You're my shield if he starts shooting!
**[16:10] ---**
The alarm stopped...!
**[16:12] ---**
Did we get away...?
**[16:14] ---**
Don't let your guard down! I still
got a really bad feeling about this!
**[16:21] ---**
It looks like we're in the clear...
**[16:23] ---**
Who WAS that?!
**[16:28] ---**
M- Master...!
**[16:30] ---**
Stay calm!
**[16:37] ---**
Here he comes!
**[16:49] ---**
A bulletproof vest?!
**[16:59] ---**
A 16-mm grenade! Tears through
vests like scrap paper!
**[17:03] ---**
No way...!
**[17:04] ---**
A monster...?!
**[17:09] ---**
Master!
**[17:11] ---**
Kosuna! If a 16-mm don't work,
let's try a 40-mm!
**[17:14] ---**
I lost 'em!
**[17:16] ---**
You idiot!
**[17:17] ---**
It's no use! Let's just apologize!
**[17:19] ---**
Too late for that now, dumbass!
**[17:24] ---**
I give up! I'm sorry!
SHE shot you first...!
**[17:29] ---**
Master! I didn't hit him!
But you hit him three times!
**[17:33] ---**
Don't tell him that!
**[17:37] ---**
T-those boobs...!
**[17:39] ---**
It's Asagiri Junko!
**[17:41] ---**
I don't usually do this
sort of thing, you know...!
**[17:50] ---**
He ran away.
**[17:53] ---**
I'll try the thermograph...!
**[17:55] ---**
He disappeared?!
**[17:56] ---**
Now you owe me one.
**[17:58] ---**
Breasts... I mean, Asagiri Junko...!
**[18:02] ---**
That's some heavy-duty stuff you got...!
**[18:04] ---**
That bastard must've seen it
and scampered off!
**[18:07] ---**
Which means we can beat it with that!
**[18:10] ---**
Her breasts aren't very great,
but her weapon is!
**[18:13] ---**
Where'd you get that anyway?!
**[18:15] ---**
The luggage Kaoru-chan had you carry.
**[18:18] ---**
Geez, so he was prepared
from the very start...!
**[18:24] ---**
It's pissed.
**[18:25] ---**
L-let's just leave for now!
**[18:29] ---**
Alright! Gimme that!
I'll bring up the rear!
**[18:32] ---**
You better protect us!
**[18:35] ---**
That monster...
**[18:37] ---**
Its huge body oozes heat, but it
instantly vanished from my thermo...!
**[18:43] ---**
Can it really do that...?!
**[18:46] ---**
From behind?!
**[18:53] ---**
M- Master!
**[18:55] ---**
Help!
**[18:59] ---**
What the hell's going on?!
**[19:02] ---**
What's he doing here?! He was
behind us! How's that possible?!
**[19:06] ---**
What're they doing in that hole?!
Morons! Runt! Big-chest!
**[19:09] ---**
I can hit him with a rocket
and end all this.
**[19:11] ---**
But they'd pay the price!
My boob plan would go up in smoke!
**[19:14] ---**
Damn! They're too close to him!
Was that the bastard's plan?!
**[19:18] ---**
Why the hostages?! Does that mean
he doesn't have super strength?!
**[19:22] ---**
Alright, then!
**[19:24] ---**
But I can't let 'em die...!
**[19:26] ---**
I really look forward to Taiko
becoming a hottie in the near future,
**[19:30] ---**
and Asagiri Junko is a hottie
I'd love for the present!
**[19:34] ---**
Both would be a big waste dead!
**[19:38] ---**
But I'd be lucky to save even one!
**[19:42] ---**
I can't save 'em both!
Which do I save?!
**[19:45] ---**
The bountiful future?!
**[19:47] ---**
Present pleasure?!
**[19:48] ---**
Which do I choose? Which one?!
**[19:57] ---**
Time to die, asshole!
**[20:00] ---**
Master!
**[20:00] ---**
What're you doing?! Don't be stupid!
**[20:05] ---**
Hey...!
**[20:07] ---**
Follow me, Kosuna!
**[20:09] ---**
Eh?!
**[20:21] ---**
He's not coming... Do you think he's dead?
**[20:25] ---**
Idiot! Don't relax until
you've seen his corpse!
**[20:30] ---**
Damn...
**[20:31] ---**
I was gonna blast him away
if he decided to drop by, but...
**[20:34] ---**
Quit being reckless, will you?!
**[20:37] ---**
We could've been blown up or
flattened if you had screwed up!
**[20:42] ---**
Who cares, you're safe now.
**[20:46] ---**
So that freak came out of this hole...
**[20:49] ---**
Yeah! He totally scared me...!
**[20:52] ---**
I wish you could've seen her
face when the monster came out!
**[20:56] ---**
Like you could really
see me through my helmet!
**[21:01] ---**
Now I see. So that's why you
won't chase us, you coward...
**[21:06] ---**
Coward?
**[21:07] ---**
He used these tunnels to sneak up on us.
**[21:11] ---**
That's how he was able
to appear and disappear.
**[21:13] ---**
There must be tons of
tunnels beneath the city!
**[21:16] ---**
I get it! So he's being cautious
now that we know his trick!
**[21:20] ---**
OK! We'll use 'em to go back!
He can't do nothin' down here!
**[21:25] ---**
There's not much room,
and he'd be fully exposed...!
**[21:30] ---**
Oh! You're alive!
**[21:33] ---**
Yes, somehow or other...
**[21:35] ---**
You're horrible, Kaoru-chan!
You should've said that thing was there!
**[21:40] ---**
Now, now...
**[21:42] ---**
Impressive, boy. You're the first
to ever return from scouting.
**[21:49] ---**
I know that treasure hunters
aren't talkative, so I won't complain.
**[21:54] ---**
But surely you can tell us now.
What was that thing?!
**[22:01] ---**
He's a guardian.
**[22:03] ---**
He's constantly protected that city,
whose denizens died centuries ago.
**[22:10] ---**
He punishes all who enter
the inner wall that surrounds it.
**[22:16] ---**
He is that city of death's...
**[22:20] ---**
...guardian.
**[22:38] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:46] ---**
*One more big circle...*
**[22:50] ---**
*A billowing raincoat...
(It's a cape!)*
**[22:54] ---**
*Oh, let's not forget
the sunshade now...*
**[22:59] ---**
*(His heart is pitch black!
His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:05] ---**
*Give him a Winchester and
suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*
**[23:21] ---**
*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*
**[23:24] ---**
*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*
**[23:28] ---**
*He'll go forth again tomorrow!
(Go forth again)*
**[23:32] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:34] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:36] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady!)*
**[23:38] ---**
*He'll rush on ahead, life
on the line! Rush on ahead!*
**[23:56] ---**
Ghost of the Desert, Sunabouzu here!
**[23:57] ---**
'Tis the season for warm food!
Warm stew is especially delicious!
**[24:00] ---**
Next time is "Sunabo Hustles",
"Kosuna Does Errands",
**[24:04] ---**
and "'Junko' or 'Boobie Lady'?"
**[24:06] ---**
Miss it and it's rock-paper--
**[24:07] ---**
Wait! It's really
"Guardian and Treasure Hunter"!

*There's nothing certain
about what tomorrow holds*
**[01:10] ---**
*so living through this moment*
**[01:15] ---**
*is my mission alone*
**[01:35] ---**
The "skeleton cities" scattered
about the Great Kanto Desert...
**[01:40] ---**
Ruins of a civilization centuries old.
**[01:42] ---**
Buried in them are all manners
of resources and lost artifacts.
**[01:48] ---**
People greedily dig, raze,
and mine for these buried goods.
**[01:55] ---**
As they're sucked dry,
these cities are numbered
**[01:59] ---**
in the order they're discovered
and then abandoned.
**[02:02] ---**
Cities under exhumation are named
after the individuals or groups
**[02:06] ---**
who have staked their claim in them.
**[02:16] ---**
We did it...!
**[02:18] ---**
A city not on any map...!
**[02:22] ---**
It DOES exist!
**[02:24] ---**
But let's save the glee
for after we inspect it!
**[02:30] ---**
Check it out! Aluminum!
**[02:33] ---**
I think this is titanium!
**[02:35] ---**
Sweet! All this and
we've barely even dug!
**[02:39] ---**
No doubt about it!
This city's been untouched, Kaizuka!
**[02:45] ---**
It's the 85th skeleton city discovered!
**[02:49] ---**
After the 84th skeleton city was
discovered 20 years previously,
**[02:54] ---**
the only new discoveries
were of small ruins.
**[02:57] ---**
These three men had made the
first big find in 20 years.
**[03:02] ---**
"Guardian and Treasure Hunter"
**[03:03] ---**
And then we ran into him...
**[03:14] ---**
R-Run!
**[03:27] ---**
Kaizuka...!
**[04:05] ---**
As I ran for my life,
I passed through the city gates.
**[04:10] ---**
He- the guardian- didn't follow me
outside the city wall.
**[04:15] ---**
That's how I survived.
**[04:20] ---**
All I managed to bring back
was my life and a cheap trinket.
**[04:26] ---**
I lost everything. I suddenly
lost my two trusted friends
**[04:31] ---**
with whom I'd worked for so many years...
**[04:35] ---**
This was some 10 years ago.
**[04:38] ---**
That freak's been there that long...?!
**[04:41] ---**
So the only thing you
managed to bring back was--
**[04:44] ---**
A computer drive that had thoroughly
deteriorated since the Dark Ages.
**[04:49] ---**
All that I managed to pull off
of it was the "Game of Life".
**[04:54] ---**
I knew it!
**[04:55] ---**
There was much more in the room
I found the drive in...
**[04:59] ---**
--Eh?!
**[04:59] ---**
--Eh?!
**[05:01] ---**
The room that made you filthy rich...
**[05:04] ---**
...has a lot more stuff...
**[05:06] ---**
...on the same level
as the Game of Life?!
**[05:09] ---**
--That's a HUGE treasure trove!
**[05:09] ---**
--That's a HUGE treasure trove!
**[05:12] ---**
I know the room is in the
deepest underground part
**[05:16] ---**
of the building with the tallest tower,
**[05:19] ---**
but I only entered it
the one time 10 years ago...
**[05:23] ---**
I spent the next five years building
my company and selling the game,
**[05:29] ---**
and the next five after
that challenging him.
**[05:33] ---**
Wow, 10 years already...
**[05:37] ---**
So we just gotta get rid of him, right?!
**[05:40] ---**
I thought we'd be digging for treasure,
but you knew where it was!
**[05:46] ---**
This'll be a cinch!
The treasure is as good as ours!
**[05:51] ---**
Right?!
**[05:53] ---**
10 million! 10 million! 10 MILLION!
**[05:57] ---**
B-but we'll have to fight
that monster thing, you know!
**[06:02] ---**
I know you can do it! After all,
you ARE the Kanto's best, right?
**[06:08] ---**
I'll do it! I'll kill that sucker!
**[06:11] ---**
Master...!
**[06:14] ---**
OK! Then it's settled!
Let's take a break before we start!
**[06:18] ---**
I'm exhausted, and dripping with sweat...
**[06:21] ---**
I think I'll go rest over there!
**[06:24] ---**
It's so cool...!
**[06:26] ---**
Flaunter...
**[06:29] ---**
No peeking, now!
**[06:38] ---**
Gonna peek all alone, you old fart?!
**[06:41] ---**
Not peeking, monitoring.
**[06:44] ---**
I can't let word about my treasure
get leaked out to anyone!
**[06:49] ---**
That makes sense!
**[06:50] ---**
Don't consent to that!
**[06:53] ---**
It'd be wiser to. Defiance of your
employer will nullify the 10 million.
**[06:59] ---**
It's specifically written
in your contract!
**[07:02] ---**
So just leave the important work to me!
**[07:06] ---**
You kiddos get ready to eat or something!
**[07:11] ---**
Now, then...!
**[07:12] ---**
Oh, Junko-chan...!
**[07:15] ---**
Where are you?
**[07:18] ---**
Can't trust that geezer one bit...
**[07:21] ---**
Master, I've been thinking...
**[07:25] ---**
Is that old man really after treasure?
**[07:29] ---**
Whadya mean?
**[07:31] ---**
Well, he knew about the guardian.
This is too dangerous to be a hobby.
**[07:37] ---**
What's he want, then?
**[07:40] ---**
Could it be revenge...?
**[07:44] ---**
That's hilarious! Like anyone would
ever try that for 5 years straight!
**[07:49] ---**
But he said it himself!
**[07:52] ---**
They were the only friends in the
Great Kanto Desert he could trust.
**[07:58] ---**
Wouldn't it be a once-in-a-century
thing for him to make such friends?
**[08:04] ---**
Am I wrong?!
**[08:06] ---**
You're unusually inquisitive.
What's the deal?
**[08:10] ---**
I'm not getting any of the 10 million,
so I find it hard to be festive.
**[08:17] ---**
And you seem especially
unfond of Junko...
**[08:21] ---**
Not really.
**[08:24] ---**
You're jealous!
**[08:25] ---**
Unbelievable! How can you
say that?! Don't be stupid!
**[08:31] ---**
I simply don't like how she uses
lousy lumps of fat to get her way!
**[08:36] ---**
Isn't she pathetic?!
I absolutely hate women like that!
**[08:45] ---**
Damn kid...!
**[08:53] ---**
What the...?!
**[08:54] ---**
Let's move!
**[08:55] ---**
Go!
**[08:56] ---**
It's begun!
**[08:57] ---**
There's so many. Are they bandits?
**[09:01] ---**
Doesn't seem like it...
**[09:03] ---**
That's him!
**[09:04] ---**
Master! In back!
**[09:09] ---**
That bitch...! Damn you!
**[09:13] ---**
Junko-chan! I wondered
where she went...!
**[09:16] ---**
What is she doing there?
**[09:21] ---**
She was a spy.
**[09:23] ---**
The legendary treasure hunting expert
was up to something,
**[09:27] ---**
so the Game of Life's rival company
probably sent her in!
**[09:32] ---**
And now the first skeleton city found
in 30 years will be known to all,
**[09:39] ---**
and all of its treasure stolen!
**[09:42] ---**
Eh?!
**[09:44] ---**
Curse her...! She'll pay for this!
**[09:52] ---**
Old man...
**[09:55] ---**
What are we doing?
**[09:57] ---**
Letting them handle the guardian
while we nab some treasure!
**[10:00] ---**
Good thinking!
**[10:05] ---**
I THOUGHT I recognized that scoundrel
from somewhere before...!
**[10:10] ---**
Yes, those eyes...
**[10:12] ---**
His eyes have the light of
a well-sharpened, bared knife...
**[10:17] ---**
Such disturbing eyes...!
**[10:24] ---**
What is he, a monster?!
**[10:26] ---**
He's fast!
**[10:27] ---**
Get behind him and attack from both-
**[10:31] ---**
Sorry! Buy a little more time!
**[10:36] ---**
That woman...!
**[10:41] ---**
We get him?!
**[10:50] ---**
Now to get me some treasure...!
**[10:55] ---**
That's--
**[10:58] ---**
Hold it.
**[10:59] ---**
Oh...
**[11:01] ---**
Hand over the treasure.
**[11:03] ---**
This? It's nothing special!
**[11:06] ---**
The old man said there was a lot more,
but this is all there was--
**[11:10] ---**
Traitor!
**[11:13] ---**
I haven't betrayed anyone.
**[11:15] ---**
Kaoru-chan agreed that I could
leave anytime if things turned bad.
**[11:24] ---**
What if I won't hand it over?
Will you shoot?
**[11:29] ---**
Can you shoot an unarmed woman?
**[11:31] ---**
I know you don't like
how I take advantage of men
**[11:34] ---**
by exploiting their weaknesses.
**[11:39] ---**
How cute...!
**[11:44] ---**
Hand it over!
**[11:46] ---**
Take it if you want it!
**[11:48] ---**
You big-chested airhead! Hand it over!
Hand it over! Hand it over!
**[11:54] ---**
You threw your gun away,
but I won't be so nice.
**[11:58] ---**
Humiliated? Sucks for you that
I'll stop at nothing to get what I want!
**[12:05] ---**
Listen. You'll die if you think too much!
**[12:23] ---**
Now we're even! See ya!
**[12:34] ---**
Damn kid...!
**[12:39] ---**
This is humiliating...!
**[13:02] ---**
Looks like you finally got 'em all...
**[13:06] ---**
With enough money, there's always a way.
**[13:09] ---**
And that old man's
spent five years on it.
**[13:13] ---**
He's clearly not out for revenge.
I wasn't sure what the deal was, but...
**[13:20] ---**
...now I get it.
**[13:25] ---**
What the hell--
**[13:27] ---**
--are you--
**[13:29] ---**
--fighting for?!
**[13:41] ---**
There's no one to thank you
or give you orders!
**[13:53] ---**
You're one tough bastard...
**[13:56] ---**
But...
**[14:00] ---**
...it's time to say goodbye!
**[14:11] ---**
I thought it was for sure this time,
but I guess it'll take another 5 years...
**[14:16] ---**
I wouldn't say so.
**[14:20] ---**
You're alive!
**[14:22] ---**
But you don't seem to have
any treasure. What a failure.
**[14:26] ---**
Don't be silly.
**[14:28] ---**
Wasn't HE your real goal?
**[14:33] ---**
Don't worry. He's dead.
**[14:35] ---**
Y-you're certain?!
You're certain it's dead?!
**[14:39] ---**
Don't worry, I took care of him! See?
**[14:44] ---**
I finished him good!
**[14:51] ---**
Do you know what this was?
**[14:54] ---**
Sure, more or less.
**[14:57] ---**
You "more or less" realized this
was worth more than the treasure
**[15:01] ---**
and that this was my true objective?
**[15:05] ---**
Was I wrong?
**[15:08] ---**
You're one despicable runt.
I bet you don't have any friends.
**[15:13] ---**
Oh, you're much too kind!
**[15:16] ---**
That wasn't praise.
**[15:17] ---**
Ya see, when you're a handyman,
you start hearing all kinds of rumors
**[15:22] ---**
and old stories, even in your sleep.
**[15:28] ---**
Around the end of the Dark Ages,
**[15:30] ---**
there were perfect soldiers sent
onto the battlefield in place of people.
**[15:34] ---**
They say that just one had
the combat ability of 100 men,
**[15:38] ---**
and that a single unit of them was
one cause of civilization's collapse.
**[15:44] ---**
I dunno how much is true,
**[15:47] ---**
but once I saw it, I knew you weren't
after the underground treasure.
**[15:52] ---**
You've been doing tests on it
these past five years, haven't you?
**[15:57] ---**
To see if you could sell it or not...
**[16:01] ---**
Diligently, so nobody
would ever find out.
**[16:05] ---**
Not even my company or my son...
**[16:10] ---**
Five years...
**[16:11] ---**
Look at it!
**[16:13] ---**
Burned by the sun and sand,
it continued to fight for five years
**[16:17] ---**
as it withstood its own heat.
**[16:19] ---**
Its scorched clothes
clinging to its body,
**[16:22] ---**
its armor battered
by countless bullets and heat...
**[16:26] ---**
It's gone without replenishment,
maintenance, or any support at all!
**[16:30] ---**
And as it had woken up
from centuries-long sleep,
**[16:34] ---**
it couldn't have been at 100% performance.
**[16:36] ---**
Even so, it displayed
spectacular combat capacity.
**[16:40] ---**
Its inherent abilities are unfathomable!
**[16:46] ---**
Scary...
**[16:48] ---**
Isn't it, though?
**[16:50] ---**
I'm talking about you.
**[16:53] ---**
For five years, you suckered guys
like me and set this thing after 'em.
**[16:59] ---**
Just how many did you kill?!
**[17:05] ---**
It's no big deal.
**[17:07] ---**
Just think if you had an army of
these armed robots to back you up...
**[17:18] ---**
That's crazy...!
**[17:26] ---**
Don't think too much,
don't think too much...
**[17:29] ---**
Don't think too much,
don't think too much...
**[17:32] ---**
Oh!
**[17:34] ---**
Hey, what're you--
**[17:36] ---**
Don't think too much,
don't think too much...
**[17:41] ---**
You never learn...!
**[17:45] ---**
Don't think too much!
**[17:52] ---**
Alright!
**[17:54] ---**
Not bad. Why didn't you kill me?
**[17:57] ---**
Now we really are even.
**[18:00] ---**
Now strip. I'm taking you to my master.
**[18:05] ---**
I can't believe I lost! Crap!
**[18:09] ---**
I'm so soft...!
I should've killed you when--
**[18:12] ---**
Keep your hands in the open!
**[18:17] ---**
Yeah, yeah...
**[18:18] ---**
Fine.
**[18:20] ---**
I knew it.
**[18:26] ---**
Good evening!
**[18:29] ---**
I didn't know where she had
weapons hidden, so I had her strip.
**[18:33] ---**
What another great look...!
**[18:37] ---**
Alright, Asagiri Junko!
**[18:38] ---**
You filthy traitor!
**[18:40] ---**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[18:42] ---**
Well done, Taiko!
You suddenly have great character!
**[18:46] ---**
Yes!
**[18:47] ---**
I simply tried not to think too much!
**[18:51] ---**
Now, then...
**[18:54] ---**
That robot's worth a lot, but it's
a threat to the Oasis government.
**[18:58] ---**
If they found out, they'd probably
crush the Game of Life Company
**[19:03] ---**
and try to shut up everyone
who knows the secret.
**[19:08] ---**
If we make your death look
like a convincing accident
**[19:11] ---**
then we'll be spared,
plus we can take our base fee.
**[19:14] ---**
You wouldn't have bothered
to finish off the guardian
**[19:18] ---**
if that was all you were going to do.
**[19:21] ---**
This WAS a job.
**[19:23] ---**
And besides, I'd much rather
have my 10 million!
**[19:27] ---**
Even if you're murdered?
**[19:29] ---**
Be my guest.
**[19:30] ---**
There're plenty of people
out there who wanna kill me.
**[19:34] ---**
An extra person or two
won't make much difference...
**[19:38] ---**
Of course, I won't keep quiet
if something comes my way,
**[19:42] ---**
but I will tell you this.
**[19:44] ---**
I've always upheld my contracts
and kept my employers' secrets secret,
**[19:49] ---**
and this time'll be no different.
**[19:51] ---**
Though I doubt the Great Kanto Desert's
most cautious treasure hunter
**[19:57] ---**
would ever believe me.
**[19:59] ---**
Not really.
**[20:00] ---**
Question!
**[20:01] ---**
Yes! Little one!
**[20:03] ---**
You're going to make lots of
those robots and sell them, right?
**[20:06] ---**
Indeed.
**[20:07] ---**
But didn't they play a part in the
destruction of the old civilization...?
**[20:12] ---**
So what?
**[20:14] ---**
What if you make money
**[20:15] ---**
but humankind actually winds up
destroyed for good this time?
**[20:20] ---**
If it's destroyed that easily,
**[20:22] ---**
then let it be destroyed
and end the suffering.
**[20:27] ---**
You're frightening.
**[20:29] ---**
After the Dark Ages, it was the
predecessors of us treasure hunters
**[20:33] ---**
who first stepped foot into the
hellhole that is the Great Kanto Desert.
**[20:39] ---**
And once treasure began being dug up,
people gathered together,
**[20:43] ---**
dug wells, and built villages
that eventually grew into the Oases.
**[20:49] ---**
Which is why I don't like
the Oasis government,
**[20:52] ---**
which came in afterwards to sing
about the safety of the desert,
**[20:55] ---**
collect taxes, and force decisions
on us that suited their own whims!
**[21:01] ---**
You're gonna use robots to
show the government who's who?!
**[21:06] ---**
Things should be quite tumultuous
come 10 years from now!
**[21:11] ---**
Ah well.
**[21:12] ---**
Say, I do get hush-money, right?!
**[21:22] ---**
Smaller one!
**[21:24] ---**
Y-yes?!
**[21:25] ---**
You get 10 million yen, too!
**[21:29] ---**
You certainly earned it.
Junko-chan's pay should about cover it!
**[21:34] ---**
Eh?!
**[21:36] ---**
Quiet, you wench!
**[21:38] ---**
You should be grateful
you still have your life!
**[21:42] ---**
Eh?! We're not killing her?!
**[21:43] ---**
That'd be wasteful- I mean mean!
**[21:46] ---**
This woman is our enemy now!
Get serious!
**[21:50] ---**
Boy! If you're alive in 10 years' time,
come see me! I'll use you!
**[21:55] ---**
I could be your enemy
when that time comes, you know!
**[22:07] ---**
That boy has such ominous eyes...!
**[22:13] ---**
The exact same eyes I had
when I was a kid...
**[22:17] ---**
And so another nightmare of the
Dark Ages is about to reawaken...
**[22:38] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:46] ---**
*One more big circle...*
**[22:50] ---**
*A billowing raincoat...
(It's a cape!)*
**[22:54] ---**
*Oh, let's not forget
the sunshade now...*
**[22:59] ---**
*(His heart is pitch black!
His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:05] ---**
*Give him a Winchester and
suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*
**[23:21] ---**
*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*
**[23:24] ---**
*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*
**[23:28] ---**
*He'll go forth again tomorrow!
(Go forth again)*
**[23:32] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:34] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:36] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady!)*
**[23:38] ---**
*He'll rush on ahead, life
on the line! Rush on ahead!*
**[23:56] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabouzu here!
**[23:57] ---**
--At last, the Boobie Lady is mine!
--Congratulations, boy!
**[24:00] ---**
What're you gonna do to me!? No! Stop!
**[24:02] ---**
Can we really air this?!
Won't it be a storm of Sunabo marks?!
**[24:06] ---**
Next intimate episode-
"Crime and Punishment"
**[24:07] ---**
Miss it and you'll be my slave!

**[00:17] ---**
*I am the one!*
**[00:20] ---**
*Push on ahead as you like, yeah*
**[00:24] ---**
*Oh, listen closely to me*
**[00:28] ---**
*and speak the name
of the desert god*
**[00:32] ---**
*Clench your teeth*

*When your heart starts

**[00:40] ---**
*Stop it! It'll only

**[00:46] ---**
*Let's do it, oh, angel*
**[00:50] ---**
*Now is the time to
stand up and be strong*
**[00:55] ---**
*A sad history, a
hidden big story*
**[00:59] ---**
*That's the mystery*
**[01:02] ---**
*There's nothing certain
about what tomorrow holds*
**[01:10] ---**
*so living through this moment*
**[01:15] ---**
*is my mission alone*
**[01:33] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert.
**[01:35] ---**
To assert their existence
in this harsh environment,
**[01:39] ---**
the meager creatures here love
each other and eventually bond,
**[01:43] ---**
thereby linking the lights of their lives.
**[01:46] ---**
However...!
**[01:49] ---**
Sometimes great sin occurs
during the pursuits of life!
**[01:54] ---**
And the perpetrators of these crimes
always receive punishment!
**[02:02] ---**
This is the 10-day ordeal of a
certain person who lives in the same way
**[02:10] ---**
and was punished for his sinful crimes.
**[02:13] ---**
"Crime and Punishment"
**[02:17] ---**
"Day 1"
**[02:19] ---**
See you in ten years!
**[02:26] ---**
Now, then...!
**[02:27] ---**
W-w-what?!
**[02:29] ---**
Come on! Get the lead out!
**[02:32] ---**
Stop...!
**[02:34] ---**
I really don't think we should
keep her alive, Master...!
**[02:39] ---**
Nah, I can use her
for all sorts of stuff...!
**[02:42] ---**
Use...?
**[02:44] ---**
Hey, Kosuna.
**[02:45] ---**
Y-yes?
**[02:48] ---**
You can go now. I'll take care
of this traitor myself.
**[02:54] ---**
Thanks for the help.
**[02:55] ---**
Take care of me, how...?!
**[02:58] ---**
Right. See you later...
**[03:01] ---**
Alright...
**[03:02] ---**
What does "take care of" mean?!
**[03:07] ---**
If you're gonna kill me,
just get it over with!
**[03:09] ---**
I ain't gonna kill ya.
**[03:11] ---**
T-then...!
**[03:14] ---**
--Round and round you go!
**[03:16] ---**
--Whaaa...?!
**[03:17] ---**
--Now you got no sense of direction! Spin!
**[03:22] ---**
Where are we?
**[03:25] ---**
What is this place?
**[03:29] ---**
I call it the "Sunabouzu Secret Base"...!
**[03:32] ---**
Secret... base...?!
**[03:36] ---**
Cool, huh?!
**[03:37] ---**
It was in great condition
when I unearthed it five years ago
**[03:41] ---**
so I remodeled it for myself!
**[03:44] ---**
I haven't told anyone about it yet...
**[03:47] ---**
...and I always hoped you
would be my very first visitor...!
**[03:52] ---**
I see.
**[03:54] ---**
But it IS a secret,
so I'm sorry about the blindfold...!
**[03:59] ---**
But...
**[04:00] ---**
...isn't it perfect to keep you in!
**[04:03] ---**
K-keep?!
**[04:04] ---**
Well, I gotta leave to finish
some last-minute work.
**[04:07] ---**
There's water and food in the back,
so make yourself at home!
**[04:14] ---**
What's his deal?!
**[04:35] ---**
He said he was going to
"take care of the traitor",
**[04:39] ---**
but I get the feeling
he's actually crazy for me!
**[04:43] ---**
Well, I guess I'll take it easy
for a little while!
**[04:47] ---**
Knowing him, I'll be able
to escape anytime I want!
**[04:52] ---**
Oh, where's the bathroom?
**[04:55] ---**
Let's see...
**[04:56] ---**
Hmm?
**[04:58] ---**
"Day 2"
**[05:02] ---**
Why's it so hot...?!
Doesn't he have air conditioning?!
**[05:12] ---**
It's so hot...
**[05:21] ---**
"Day 3"
**[05:24] ---**
I'm done for...
**[05:29] ---**
Don't tell me he's waiting for me
to sweat to death in here?!
**[05:33] ---**
Hey! Can anyone hear me?!
**[05:36] ---**
Lemme out! Lemme out of here!
**[05:38] ---**
Come on!
**[05:41] ---**
Seriously! I can't die
like a dog in here...!
**[05:56] ---**
T-this is--
**[06:02] ---**
Wow! A bath fit for a king!
I've only dreamt about one like this!
**[06:13] ---**
Well, I guess it's safe...
**[06:20] ---**
This is the best!
**[06:23] ---**
I've always had to scrub my body
with scratchy old towels!
**[06:32] ---**
I've turned into a fish...!
**[06:37] ---**
This feels great!
**[06:43] ---**
My clothes are gone!
**[06:47] ---**
Y-you...!
**[06:50] ---**
Felt great after all that humidity, huh?
**[06:53] ---**
Don't tell me that was YOU--
**[06:55] ---**
Oopsies!
**[06:57] ---**
I took it upon myself to get rid
of your stinky, sweaty clothes!
**[07:02] ---**
You can wear this instead!
**[07:09] ---**
See ya tomorrow!
**[07:11] ---**
Get back here, you!
**[07:15] ---**
Yikes! Now it's cold!
**[07:19] ---**
It won't open...!
**[07:21] ---**
I- I need something to wear...!
**[07:25] ---**
No! That's exactly what he wants!
**[07:34] ---**
It literally is a
demonic air conditioner...!
**[07:40] ---**
Why do I hafta wear this swimsuit...?!
**[07:43] ---**
This sucks so much...!
**[07:46] ---**
"Day 4"
**[07:51] ---**
Women belong in swimsuits and high-heels,
not tasteless desert suits!
**[07:58] ---**
Yes! That one-piece suit
is better than a bikini!
**[08:02] ---**
And those shiny, red high-heels...!
**[08:05] ---**
You're beautiful,
TOO beautiful, Junko-kun!
**[08:09] ---**
Why am I dressed like this?!
**[08:15] ---**
You know...
**[08:16] ---**
I've taken you prisoner
for backstabbing me!
**[08:20] ---**
I could hang you if I wanted to.
In other words...
**[08:25] ---**
I'm free to enjoy your
presence here any way I wish!
**[08:31] ---**
The day of destiny had finally arrived.
**[08:34] ---**
Destiny... Yes, the day
of destiny has come!
**[08:38] ---**
Destiny?!
**[08:39] ---**
Let me prophesize!
**[08:41] ---**
Asagiri Junko.
**[08:42] ---**
One year from now, a beautiful baby
that looks just like me
**[08:45] ---**
will be suckling at your breast!
**[08:51] ---**
Alright.
**[08:53] ---**
I'll have your child.
**[08:55] ---**
Eh?! Whaaaa...?
**[08:58] ---**
That's weird! I expected you
to put up more of a fight...!
**[09:03] ---**
What can a helpless girl possibly do
in a situation like this?
**[09:07] ---**
I'd have to be stupid
to get myself hurt.
**[09:11] ---**
You're quite down-to-earth...
**[09:13] ---**
So what happens once I have your kid?
**[09:16] ---**
You raise him, of course!
I'm far too young to be a family man!
**[09:23] ---**
Besides, I only care about the process,
not the family itself...!
**[09:29] ---**
I guess you can say it's my calling?
**[09:30] ---**
I feel it's the duty of living things
to leave offspring in this world! Yeah!
**[09:37] ---**
Okay.
**[09:39] ---**
I'll raise the kid.
He'd only be a burden to you.
**[09:43] ---**
Yahoo!
**[09:46] ---**
I don't mind. After all,
I'm going to have him kill you anyway.
**[09:51] ---**
W-w-what?!
**[09:52] ---**
Don't you get it?
It's THE Sunabouzu's kid!
**[09:55] ---**
Wouldn't he grow up to be a violent,
spiteful killing machine
**[10:00] ---**
with incredible combat skills?!
**[10:04] ---**
Baboo!
**[10:06] ---**
It's me, Daddy! Don't you recognize me?
**[10:12] ---**
Good job, Kanjiro-chan!
**[10:14] ---**
Baboo!
**[10:16] ---**
You call yourself a mother?!
**[10:17] ---**
And besides, it was YOUR
backstabbing that started this all!
**[10:20] ---**
Then kill me! That'd be much
better than being your toy!
**[10:24] ---**
Shaddup! Quit bein' a crybaby!
**[10:32] ---**
Gotcha!
**[10:36] ---**
Crap...!
**[10:37] ---**
And I knew full well that a crotch-kick
**[10:40] ---**
was the most dangerous thing
in this situation...!
**[10:44] ---**
You're so easy to manipulate!
Like I'd really ever have your kid!
**[10:51] ---**
How the heck do you undo this lock?!
**[10:56] ---**
Only I can open that door.
**[10:59] ---**
Stay away!
**[11:00] ---**
I've analyzed you in great detail
and made thorough preparations...
**[11:07] ---**
Give it up.
**[11:08] ---**
Your only choice now is to be my woman!
**[11:11] ---**
No!
**[11:14] ---**
You're such a vivacious woman...
**[11:16] ---**
What the...?!
**[11:18] ---**
--You can just forget about your plan!
**[11:19] ---**
--She really damaged my balls...!
**[11:30] ---**
No way...! You're kidding, right?!
Come on, get up!
**[11:35] ---**
You're the only one
who knows how to open this!
**[11:37] ---**
I'm gonna starve to death
if you don't do something!
**[11:40] ---**
Get up! Get up! Get up!
**[11:42] ---**
Is this how the toughest man
in the Great Kanto Desert dies?!
**[11:50] ---**
Are you back to life?
**[11:51] ---**
Yeah...
**[11:52] ---**
Then go and open the door...!
**[11:57] ---**
Oh yeah, that's right...
**[11:59] ---**
I forget how.
**[12:00] ---**
Hey, now...!
**[12:01] ---**
By the way...
**[12:02] ---**
What?!
**[12:03] ---**
Who might you be?
**[12:06] ---**
Where are we? Who am I?
**[12:10] ---**
You gotta be kidding me...!
**[12:14] ---**
"Day 5"
**[12:17] ---**
--My head...!
**[12:18] ---**
--The moron has partial
amnesia from lack of oxygen!
**[12:22] ---**
Now what?! Do something!
**[12:28] ---**
Ah! I remember!
**[12:31] ---**
Really?!
**[12:32] ---**
We're having kids...!
**[12:35] ---**
Posterity is the key to everything!
**[12:38] ---**
You idiot! This is no time for that!
**[12:41] ---**
Now remember how to unlock the door!
**[12:43] ---**
If we make lots and lots and LOTS
of kids, I might regain my memory!
**[13:01] ---**
"Day 6"
**[13:06] ---**
Why, you...!
**[13:06] ---**
Whoopsies!
**[13:14] ---**
Gotcha!
**[13:21] ---**
Damn, I never knew high-heels
could be such vicious weapons...!
**[13:25] ---**
I'm not wearing them
to make you happy...
**[13:29] ---**
If I do escape, I can't exactly
go into the desert barefoot...!
**[13:34] ---**
Clever...
**[13:35] ---**
Did you think I crossed
the desert with only womanly weapons?
**[13:40] ---**
Harming my prized captive
won't solve anything...
**[13:44] ---**
What do I do...?
**[13:47] ---**
"Day 7"
**[13:55] ---**
Well? Remember now?
**[13:57] ---**
Y-yeah...
**[14:00] ---**
Now open it!
**[14:03] ---**
Umm...
**[14:04] ---**
What?!
**[14:05] ---**
It's so complicated
that I can't remember!
**[14:10] ---**
Get serious, you twit!
**[14:12] ---**
How about now?!
**[14:15] ---**
That angle!
**[14:16] ---**
Like this?! Does this angle
help you remember?!
**[14:19] ---**
A little to the right!
Now straight forward!
**[14:22] ---**
You like that?! How's this?!
**[14:26] ---**
Yes! Yes! Yes!
**[14:28] ---**
"Day 8"
**[14:33] ---**
I'm... going to die here, aren't I?
**[14:37] ---**
Trapped in this place...
**[14:41] ---**
What a lame way to go...!
**[14:44] ---**
Should've behaved from the start...
**[14:48] ---**
You wouldn't have used up
so much energy...!
**[14:51] ---**
Moron...! Moron! Moron!
**[14:54] ---**
I bet you're just afraid...!
**[14:58] ---**
You're probably pure
and innocent on the inside...!
**[15:03] ---**
Grr...!
**[15:06] ---**
Look who's talking! It's obvious
that YOU'RE a cherry boy...!
**[15:10] ---**
You wouldn't know how to handle a woman!
**[15:12] ---**
Like hell, I wouldn't!
**[15:15] ---**
I'm umm, yeah!
**[15:17] ---**
Super popular and unstoppable
and mind-blowing!
**[15:20] ---**
It's always raring to go and
it's even called the Godly Tool!
**[15:27] ---**
Quit with the horrible lies.
You're pathetic, kiddo.
**[15:32] ---**
Well, I bet YOU write mushy girly poetry!
**[15:36] ---**
So what if I do?!
**[15:38] ---**
No way! You do?!
**[15:43] ---**
All that yelling...
**[15:45] ---**
...wasted even more energy...
**[15:50] ---**
Say...
**[15:52] ---**
You had water for the bath...
**[15:54] ---**
That was the very last of it...
**[15:57] ---**
And there was an air conditioner...
**[16:00] ---**
I used up all the electricity
getting you to put on the swimsuit...
**[16:12] ---**
"Day 9"
**[16:16] ---**
Mommy, I'm hungry!
**[16:19] ---**
When it's hot,
colored water hits the spot!
**[16:24] ---**
Still, where could Master be?
The Mugenya has some work for him...
**[16:32] ---**
Want one?
**[16:34] ---**
T-thank you...
**[16:36] ---**
Kanta?!
**[16:38] ---**
Nope, ain't seen 'im!
Wouldn't wanna, either!
**[16:41] ---**
Somethin' happen to him?
**[16:44] ---**
N-no, not really...
**[16:50] ---**
Oh well...
**[16:52] ---**
I humbly accept this!
**[16:57] ---**
Yummy!
**[17:02] ---**
"Day 10"
**[17:16] ---**
What?
**[17:18] ---**
Come on...
**[17:20] ---**
Just once...
**[17:24] ---**
You really are a
pile of earthly desires...
**[17:30] ---**
I know things look grim...
**[17:32] ---**
But I have to satisfy this craving...
**[17:36] ---**
I guess I wanna feel it...
**[17:38] ---**
I feel like I'm gonna
die any minute now...
**[17:45] ---**
So I want to feel... that I'm alive...
**[17:58] ---**
Alright. Fine...
**[18:06] ---**
R-really...?!
**[18:08] ---**
You... won't hit me...?!
**[18:15] ---**
That's great...! That's great!
**[18:20] ---**
But only once!
**[18:23] ---**
Right...! Thank you...!
**[18:26] ---**
But...
**[18:28] ---**
...not because I'm a traitor
or as punishment or anything!
**[18:33] ---**
It has to be between a man
and a woman on equal standing...!
**[18:36] ---**
That's fine with me!
**[18:37] ---**
Put it in writing.
**[18:38] ---**
You got it!
**[18:41] ---**
Thank goodness...
**[18:43] ---**
Documents always have the final say
here in the Great Kanto Desert...
**[18:48] ---**
Now when my body is
discovered decades from now
**[18:51] ---**
I won't be buried as some lowlife...!
**[18:59] ---**
Just writing that out has me exhausted...
**[19:05] ---**
Same here...
**[19:09] ---**
But... now there'll be no regrets...
**[19:14] ---**
Let's take a break... before we start...
**[19:19] ---**
Yeah...
**[19:21] ---**
Good... night...
**[19:29] ---**
So warm and squishy...!
**[19:32] ---**
"Day 11"
**[19:35] ---**
Master! You're finally awake!
**[19:37] ---**
Posterity! Have my child before I die...!
**[19:41] ---**
Huh?
**[19:42] ---**
No! Not some flat-chested
brat like you! I want--
**[19:50] ---**
Do I look like an adult now...?
**[19:52] ---**
Master...!
**[19:56] ---**
Where am I?!
**[19:57] ---**
The town clinic.
**[19:59] ---**
Wait, is my kid being born?!
**[20:02] ---**
Eh?!
**[20:03] ---**
Guess what! I've already chosen a name!
**[20:05] ---**
His name'll be Kanjiro!
He'll go, "Baboo!"
**[20:09] ---**
Will you get serious?!
**[20:11] ---**
What in the world
are you talking about?!
**[20:14] ---**
Huh?!
**[20:15] ---**
Things got really bad, you know!
**[20:17] ---**
What, was it a difficult birth?
**[20:23] ---**
Oh, yeah! I was at my secret base and--
**[20:25] ---**
Hey! How did you know
about my secret base?!
**[20:31] ---**
I saw you sneaking around with
a shovel and cement a while back...!
**[20:36] ---**
You... trailed me?!
**[20:40] ---**
That's the only reason
you're alive now!
**[20:44] ---**
Some work had come in,
but I couldn't find you anywhere,
**[20:47] ---**
so I thought you might be there,
but the door wouldn't open,
**[20:51] ---**
so I finally had the
Kawaguchi brothers break it down.
**[20:56] ---**
And then...
**[20:58] ---**
...we found you all shriveled up
and lying next to that woman.
**[21:02] ---**
Yeah! What happened to her?!
Where's Asagiri Junko?!
**[21:06] ---**
She left yesterday.
**[21:10] ---**
You let her go?!
**[21:11] ---**
What was I supposed to do?!
**[21:14] ---**
She had a form saying you
forgave her of all her crimes!
**[21:18] ---**
Eh...?
**[21:18] ---**
Eh?!
**[21:27] ---**
Catching and holding
a woman for days on end
**[21:30] ---**
and then just letting her go...
**[21:31] ---**
That's really pathetic...!
**[21:36] ---**
What the hell was I doing...?!
**[21:39] ---**

Umm, I'm sorry you had to hear that.

"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[00:17] ---**
*I am the one!*
**[00:20] ---**
*Push on ahead as you like, yeah*
**[00:24] ---**
*Oh, listen closely to me*
**[00:28] ---**
*and speak the name
of the desert god*
**[00:32] ---**
*Clench your teeth*
**[00:36] ---**
*When your heart starts
to tremble with heat...*
**[00:40] ---**
*Stop it! It'll only
bring destruction*
**[00:46] ---**
*Let's do it, oh, angel*
**[00:50] ---**
*Now is the time to
stand up and be strong*
**[00:55] ---**
*A sad history, a
hidden big story*
**[00:59] ---**
*That's the mystery*
**[01:02] ---**
*There's nothing certain
about what tomorrow holds*
**[01:10] ---**
*so living through this moment*
**[01:15] ---**
*is my mission alone*
**[01:38] ---**
This sucks...
**[01:40] ---**
Yah, all we ever do is keep watch...
**[01:43] ---**
We done up and left the boonies
cuz of all that fancy talk,
**[01:46] ---**
but all we do is weasel around,
ain't even no shootouts...
**[01:55] ---**
What is it?!
**[01:57] ---**
There was a kid...
**[01:59] ---**
A kid?! Yeah, like there'd really
be one in this ol' scrapheap...!
**[02:04] ---**
No, really...!
**[02:09] ---**
Wait, you...!
**[02:11] ---**
You clod! Don't leave yer post!
**[02:15] ---**
Sheesh...
**[02:28] ---**
"Little Girl and Rescue"
**[02:40] ---**
How much longer?
**[02:42] ---**
Take it easy...
**[02:44] ---**
Yeah...!
**[02:45] ---**
We'll be filthy rich
once the sun shows its face!
**[02:51] ---**
Hey...
**[02:53] ---**
Sorry! Were we too loud, Shimada-san?
**[02:58] ---**
Isn't it time to change shifts?
**[03:01] ---**
It's time already?!
**[03:03] ---**
Come on, quit spazzin' out!
**[03:06] ---**
Shaddup!
**[03:09] ---**
She hasn't eaten...?
**[03:10] ---**
Nope. Won't even give me the time of day,
after all my generosity...
**[03:16] ---**
She probably only eats fancy stuff...
**[03:20] ---**
Dammit...
**[03:25] ---**
What a hardnosed brat.
**[03:27] ---**
You want I should
force it down her throat?
**[03:30] ---**
Forget about it.
**[03:31] ---**
We'll be done babysitting once
our client shows up in the morning.
**[03:36] ---**
I bet this kid's
gonna be worth lots again!
**[03:40] ---**
Way more than what
we're gettin' paid...!
**[03:43] ---**
Don't stick your nose where it
don't belong. It'll only get you hurt.
**[03:49] ---**
Just focus on your own job...
**[03:55] ---**
Someone come here!
**[03:56] ---**
Wait! You stay here!
**[04:02] ---**
What the...?
**[04:04] ---**
Who the hell could've--
**[04:06] ---**
They alive?
**[04:07] ---**
Y-yes...! They're just unconscious...!
**[04:11] ---**
How odd...
**[04:13] ---**
Why not just kill 'em
and throw 'em outta sight?
**[04:17] ---**
Why do something this obvious?
**[04:20] ---**
Oh, shit!
**[04:23] ---**
We've been had...!
**[04:26] ---**
Come on! Get up!
**[04:29] ---**
There were guards posted
all around the room... so how?
**[04:34] ---**
S-sorry...!
**[04:37] ---**
I was suddenly attacked from above...
**[04:40] ---**
Above...?!
**[04:46] ---**
I see...
**[04:48] ---**
Tell everyone to secure the exits!
Don't let 'em escape!
**[04:52] ---**
Right!
**[04:53] ---**
You three come with me!
**[04:56] ---**
We're going rat-hunting!
**[04:58] ---**
Swiping prey from
kidnapping professionals...
**[05:03] ---**
I gotta say, that's pretty gutsy...
**[05:07] ---**
That was close...!
**[05:13] ---**
Old "Night Mist" Shimada is
definitely one hell of a kidnapper!
**[05:17] ---**
He reacts quick!
Can't let my guard down!
**[05:23] ---**
Hey, quit actin' up!
**[05:25] ---**
Hey, Kosuna! You read me?
**[05:26] ---**
I'm here.
**[05:28] ---**
Change of plans.
**[05:29] ---**
Switch from Operation Cyclone
to Operation Hurricane! Hurry!
**[05:32] ---**
Eh?! I was in the
middle of getting it ready...!
**[05:36] ---**
Quit complaining! Just do it!
**[05:38] ---**
Fine...
**[05:42] ---**
You're safe now, little girl!
You must've been scared...
**[05:48] ---**
Not only did they tie you up,
they even gagged you...!
**[05:52] ---**
You poor thing...
**[05:54] ---**
Why, you...!
**[05:57] ---**
W-what...?!
**[05:58] ---**
I don't need your help!
**[06:00] ---**
Huh?!
**[06:01] ---**
Daddy hired you to save me, right?!
**[06:06] ---**
Y-yes, that's right...
**[06:09] ---**
Unbelievable!
**[06:10] ---**
What if you had screwed up
and I got caught in a shootout?!
**[06:15] ---**
This could all end quietly
if he would just pay the ransom...!
**[06:20] ---**
And look! My favorite
outfit is all filthy!
**[06:24] ---**
I'll have you know that
this was VERY expensive!
**[06:27] ---**
Y-you know...
**[06:30] ---**
We're going to have to walk now, right?
**[06:33] ---**
--Umm, little girl...
**[06:33] ---**
-- I really don't like walking...!
**[06:36] ---**
I'm starving, and I don't want to walk!
**[06:40] ---**
Listen when people are talking!
**[06:48] ---**
Yeesh...
**[06:49] ---**
This's what I get for being nice,
even if you are my client's daughter...
**[06:55] ---**
You know, little girl,
this isn't about those guys' ransom.
**[07:01] ---**
What do you mean?
**[07:03] ---**
Those guys're professional
kidnappers that people hire.
**[07:08] ---**
Eh? I don't really understand...
**[07:12] ---**
Umm, your old man, he pulled
some dirty tricks a while back
**[07:17] ---**
to crush a rival company.
**[07:20] ---**
These guys' client was
the owner of that company.
**[07:27] ---**
So basically, this isn't about money.
It's about revenge and payback.
**[07:32] ---**
His goal is to make
your old man suffer...
**[07:37] ---**
Damn! You got no idea
what's going on, do you?!
**[07:42] ---**
Basically paying the ransom won't
automatically guarantee your safety!
**[07:47] ---**
It won't?
**[07:48] ---**
I wouldn't be too surprised
if you do get killed.
**[07:52] ---**
Eh?!
**[07:53] ---**
But I'd choose death if I were you...!
**[07:55] ---**
Sleazy rich guys very often like to...
**[08:03] ---**
...to satisfy themselves!
**[08:05] ---**
Eh?!
**[08:08] ---**
That scared her! Serves her right!
**[08:11] ---**
Is that because I'm so adorable?!
**[08:14] ---**
Huh?
**[08:15] ---**
Yeah! I'm quite a beautiful little girl,
if I do say so myself!
**[08:23] ---**
Maybe it's because I'm so well-bred?
**[08:26] ---**
I guess even criminals
can appreciate that fact!
**[08:31] ---**
Oh, geez...!
**[08:33] ---**
Anyways! We gotta get outta here!
Understand?!
**[08:37] ---**
Yes, but I don't like dirt
or pain or being tired!
**[08:44] ---**
I hate this girl...
**[08:49] ---**
They did notice...
**[08:51] ---**
W-what?
**[08:52] ---**
Just come on! We're gettin' outta here!
**[08:54] ---**
Wait...!
**[08:56] ---**
Found 'em! Floor 13, B-Point!
**[08:59] ---**
As I predicted...
**[09:01] ---**
Alright, tell everyone it's a "Rat Hunt".
**[09:04] ---**
Understood!
**[09:08] ---**
How amusing...! It's been a while
since I was this excited!
**[09:30] ---**
Nice. They're closing in slowly
and calmly from all directions...
**[09:37] ---**
Hey...!
**[09:38] ---**
They're showing no confusion...
**[09:40] ---**
Hey...!
**[09:41] ---**
Do they know this building's layout?
**[09:44] ---**
Hey! Hey!
**[09:45] ---**
This is bad...! If they have
the home-court advantage, then...
**[09:49] ---**
I said hey!
**[09:51] ---**
What do you want?!
**[09:52] ---**
I'm tired!
**[09:55] ---**
We haven't even walked
for five minutes!
**[09:58] ---**
I can't walk another step!
**[10:01] ---**
Urgh! Come on, get up!
**[10:03] ---**
I don't wanna!
**[10:06] ---**
You dummy! I said don't act up...!
**[10:09] ---**
I said I don't wanna!
**[10:13] ---**
I hate this kid...!
**[10:16] ---**
Anyways, the escape route I planned
to use is completely blocked off...
**[10:21] ---**
Kosuna!
**[10:22] ---**
You copy?
**[10:23] ---**
Y-yes, Kosuna here!
**[10:29] ---**
What's wrong?
**[10:30] ---**
Oh, I was just thinking how you
seemed nice and friendly for once...!
**[10:36] ---**
Eh?
**[10:37] ---**
Never mind. Operation Hurricane
is cancelled! Switch to Monsoon!
**[10:42] ---**
Again?! After all I did...?!
**[10:45] ---**
Don't blame me! Plans hafta be flexible!
Be quick about it!
**[10:53] ---**
OK, let's move!
**[10:57] ---**
Come on...
**[10:59] ---**
What? Gonna whine some more?
**[11:02] ---**
...to...
**[11:04] ---**
Huh?!
**[11:06] ---**
...want to...!
**[11:08] ---**
I can't hear you.
**[11:10] ---**
...want to use...!
**[11:13] ---**
Huh?! Speak normal!
**[11:16] ---**
Are you trying to embarrass a lady!
**[11:18] ---**
I said I wanna use the restroom!
**[11:21] ---**
Oh, you gotta pee?
You shoulda just said so.
**[11:25] ---**
You're despicable...!
**[11:27] ---**
Just hold it.
**[11:29] ---**
I can't!
**[11:30] ---**
Then do it right there. I'll stand guard.
**[11:33] ---**
I can't do that!
**[11:35] ---**
You lousy kid...!
**[11:38] ---**
I'll go do it around the corner!
**[11:40] ---**
Wait! Don't go off by yourself...!
**[11:43] ---**
Peek and I'll tell Daddy on you!
**[11:51] ---**
Ugh...
**[12:02] ---**
Where is she?
**[12:04] ---**
I should probably check--
**[12:06] ---**
No, she could catch me
and cause a scene...
**[12:09] ---**
Plus it'd be a pain if they spotted us...
**[12:12] ---**
If rumor gets out I watched
a kid going to the bathroom
**[12:15] ---**
what'll Junko and the
Kawaguchi brothers say...?!
**[12:19] ---**
But still...!
**[12:22] ---**
Hey, Kosuna...
**[12:24] ---**
Yes... W-what is it?
Another change of plan?!
**[12:28] ---**
No, I got a quick question...
**[12:31] ---**
What is it?
**[12:32] ---**
About how long does it
normally take a girl to pee...?
**[12:41] ---**
What the heck am I doing...?
**[12:47] ---**
No, I'm not into that sorta thing...!
**[12:50] ---**
I have no choice, given the situation!
The brat hasn't come back!
**[12:54] ---**
So I'm concerned... Yeah, I'm worried!
**[12:57] ---**
I'm not a pervert!
Not a pervert! NOT a pervert...!
**[13:06] ---**
Where the heck IS she?
**[13:10] ---**
Hey, kid...!
**[13:15] ---**
I'm coming over.
**[13:18] ---**
Just so you know,
I'm not into that sort of thing!
**[13:22] ---**
I'm simply fulfilling the terms
of the contract that my employer--
**[13:28] ---**
Hiya!
**[13:32] ---**
So sorry...
**[13:38] ---**
Shimada-san knows this
building inside and out.
**[13:43] ---**
So all we hafta do is do what he says.
**[13:47] ---**
So you sat back and waited
until she was all alone?!
**[13:52] ---**
Yup. This here girl's our money train.
**[13:56] ---**
We couldn't let her
get caught in a fight...
**[13:58] ---**
Now to pay you back for earlier...!
**[14:04] ---**
What'll it be? Get shot to death? Or...
**[14:12] ---**
...will you jump right off?!
**[14:17] ---**
There's five of 'em...
This'll be tough...
**[14:21] ---**
They know more about the
building's layout than me,
**[14:24] ---**
so they can easily corner me if I run off.
**[14:28] ---**
So what do I do...?
**[14:34] ---**
It's worth a shot...!
**[14:36] ---**
What the hell're you--
**[14:40] ---**
What's that?!
**[14:42] ---**
Crap! It's blinded our night-scopes...!
**[14:45] ---**
Damn! I can't see...!
**[14:55] ---**
Where are they?!
**[15:00] ---**
It's dark and crowded and dirty!
**[15:04] ---**
Quit shouting!
**[15:05] ---**
OK! Here we go!
**[15:07] ---**
Aah! Don't touch me there!
**[15:10] ---**
D-don't be smearing my good name!
**[15:12] ---**
You're terrible! I've never
even let Daddy touch me!
**[15:17] ---**
I found 'em!
**[15:18] ---**
Over here!
**[15:21] ---**
You idiot! What if you hit the kid?!
**[15:28] ---**
Ow...!
**[15:30] ---**
Look! My hair is covered
in dirt all thanks to you!
**[15:34] ---**
And what kind of rescue was that?!
**[15:37] ---**
What if your violent actions
had marred my beautiful face?!
**[15:43] ---**
My face is worth way
much more than yours!
**[15:47] ---**
--Your ugly face isn't even worth
one of my eyelashes! Got that?!
**[15:53] ---**
--I haven't seen your face, though!
**[15:54] ---**
--You're just some sleazeball's kid...!
**[15:58] ---**
Daddy's gonna be SO mad
when he hears that!
**[16:02] ---**
Let's keep this a secret
from Daddy, okay...?
**[16:07] ---**
Damn... They've already caught up...!
**[16:09] ---**
And we can't use the
ventilation shaft now...
**[16:13] ---**
You read me, Kosuna?!
**[16:16] ---**
I'm here. More bathroom talk?
**[16:19] ---**
No! This is about the plan!
**[16:21] ---**
Don't worry! Operation Monsoon
is proceeding smoothly!
**[16:26] ---**
Monsoon is cancelled too!
Switch to Operation Phoenix!
**[16:30] ---**
Are you doing this on purpose?
**[16:32] ---**
Shut up! Just do what I say!
Operation Phoenix! Got that?!
**[16:37] ---**
Yes, sir...
**[16:40] ---**
There they are!
Don't let 'em escape this time!
**[16:43] ---**
Request backup!
**[16:52] ---**
They're headed your way!
**[16:54] ---**
Alright! Surround 'em!
**[16:55] ---**
Checkmate...
**[16:58] ---**
You put up quite a fight...
**[17:01] ---**
You seemed pretty good, but looks
like you were a real amateur...
**[17:06] ---**
Escaping upwards was practically
cutting off your own retreat...!
**[17:12] ---**
H-he couldn't be...!
**[17:14] ---**
I can't run anymore...!
**[17:16] ---**
You idiot! Do you wanna be
a greasy old man's plaything?!
**[17:21] ---**
But I really can't...!
**[17:26] ---**
This way!
**[17:27] ---**
There's about 10 total, I guess...
**[17:30] ---**
OK!
**[17:34] ---**
Don't lose 'em!
**[17:37] ---**
A smoke bomb!
**[17:39] ---**
Ignore it! Charge!
**[17:42] ---**
Wait! That's...!
**[17:46] ---**
Alright! We gotcha now!
**[17:49] ---**
W-what the...?!
**[17:56] ---**
Let's watch our step
when we're in a hurry...!
**[18:04] ---**
Finally made it...!
**[18:07] ---**
We made it to the roof...!
**[18:09] ---**
Kosuna! Where are you?!
Did you get everything set?!
**[18:15] ---**
Yo...
**[18:17] ---**
I thought you seemed cheeky,
**[18:20] ---**
but I had no idea you were
THE Sunabouzu handyman...
**[18:22] ---**
Handyman?! I THOUGHT you seemed lame!
**[18:26] ---**
Daddy should've paid
for some REAL help! Honestly!
**[18:31] ---**
Nice to meet you,
"Night Mist" Shimada-san...
**[18:34] ---**
I've heard all about you...
**[18:36] ---**
I know we just met and all,
but what do you say we end this?
**[18:43] ---**
Yes, let's...
**[18:46] ---**
What?!
**[18:47] ---**
Drop your guns or the hostage gets it!
**[18:51] ---**
Damn you, Sunabouzu...!
**[18:54] ---**
She's important merchandise, right?
**[18:57] ---**
If you don't want her damaged
then leave me alive!
**[19:00] ---**
Do that and I'll return the girl!
**[19:02] ---**
U-unbelievable!
Daddy is going to kill you!
**[19:07] ---**
Shove it, kid! He'll never know
if I just say I was too late!
**[19:12] ---**
You're despicable!
**[19:14] ---**
I'll make sure I do get my fee, though!
**[19:19] ---**
He's horrible...
**[19:22] ---**
The rumors were true, Sunabouzu.
**[19:24] ---**
You're a cowardly,
helpless piece of trash!
**[19:28] ---**
Look who's talkin'.
**[19:31] ---**
If you wanna kill her, then kill her.
**[19:33] ---**
What?
**[19:34] ---**
It doesn't matter to our trade
whether she's dead or alive.
**[19:40] ---**
Though I guess she'd be
worth a little less as a corpse...
**[19:45] ---**
I refuse to let an asshole
like you have your way...
**[19:49] ---**
Yeah?
**[19:51] ---**
In that case...
**[19:52] ---**
...how about I make sure
there's no corpse left?!
**[20:06] ---**
Kosuna! You're late!
**[20:14] ---**
He had help?!
**[20:16] ---**
Ugh! Commence Operation Phoenix!
**[20:19] ---**
R- Roger...!
**[20:21] ---**
W-what the...?!
**[20:22] ---**
What have you done?!
**[20:24] ---**
I-isn't this a little TOO intense?!
**[20:27] ---**
Eh?! I set it up just like you said!
Two things of TNT in 10 spots!
**[20:33] ---**
Y-you imbecile! That's Operation Tornado!
I said Operation Phoenix!
**[20:52] ---**
That was close...!
Saved in the nick of time!
**[20:55] ---**
Handymen must be pretty awesome
if they have stuff like this...!
**[20:59] ---**
I guess...
**[21:01] ---**
But the situation
isn't quite that good...
**[21:06] ---**
We're over the weight limit
and losing altitude fast...!
**[21:10] ---**
Eh?!
**[21:11] ---**
You have some nerve! Get off, you!
**[21:15] ---**
Screw you! You went too far!
I had no idea you had help...!
**[21:21] ---**
Surprised?! The best are always
two or three steps ahead...!
**[21:26] ---**
Ha! You screwed up plenty at the end...!
**[21:29] ---**
Say what?!
**[21:30] ---**
Hey, stop shaking it!
**[21:32] ---**
Damn you! You're a dead man!
**[21:35] ---**
What do you think you're--
**[21:36] ---**
Quit shaking it! We're falling!
**[21:42] ---**
M- Master...!
**[21:45] ---**
We're flying!
**[21:47] ---**
And so the girl was safely rescued
**[21:50] ---**
from the hands of
the terrible kidnappers...
**[21:58] ---**
Are you all right, Master?
**[22:01] ---**
I made sure I got my share of
our earnings before it got pocketed.
**[22:07] ---**
This is all you get...
**[22:10] ---**
Well, I have work to do...!
**[22:39] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:47] ---**
*One more big circle...*
**[22:51] ---**
*A billowing raincoat...
(It's a cape!)*
**[22:55] ---**
*Oh, let's not forget
the sunshade now...*
**[23:00] ---**
*(His heart is pitch black!
His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:06] ---**
*Give him a Winchester and
suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*
**[23:22] ---**
*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*
**[23:25] ---**
*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*
**[23:29] ---**
*He'll go forth again tomorrow!
(Go forth again)*
**[23:33] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:35] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:37] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady!)*
**[23:39] ---**
*He'll rush on ahead, life
on the line! Rush on ahead!*
**[23:57] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert, Sunabouzu here!
**[23:58] ---**
-- Why's it all flat chests lately?!
--Don't worry! I'll have one in 5 years!
**[24:02] ---**
So will I!
**[24:03] ---**
--Mine'll be bigger!
--Will not!
**[24:05] ---**
Five years?! I need boobies NOW!
**[24:07] ---**
On the next Sunabouzu-
"Ideality and Reality"
**[24:09] ---**
Miss it and it'll be no-boob city!

"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[01:35] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert.
**[01:37] ---**
Sunabozu and Kosuna are on
their way home after a job well done...
**[01:47] ---**
Oh. There're homeless
children out here...
**[01:52] ---**
They're strandees.
**[01:54] ---**
Do you suppose he's their guardian?
**[01:57] ---**
Probably.
**[01:59] ---**
W-water...
**[02:03] ---**
Let's go.
**[02:04] ---**
Eh?!
**[02:05] ---**
W-wait! We're not helping them?!
**[02:08] ---**
They're children!
**[02:10] ---**
Dumbass!
**[02:11] ---**
We're on the verge of being stranded too,
thanks to that magnetic storm!
**[02:16] ---**
Help 'em if you wanna die too.
**[02:18] ---**
But don't blame me...
**[02:28] ---**
Sister...
**[02:30] ---**
Don't talk... You'll only die sooner...
**[02:42] ---**
Good thing there was a town nearby...!
**[02:47] ---**
Is my intuition great or what?!
**[02:48] ---**
Can't always rely on machines
if you wanna survive in this desert!
**[02:53] ---**
You're surprisingly nice!
**[02:55] ---**
Huh?
**[02:56] ---**
After all, you turned right around
the instant you found the town...
**[03:01] ---**
To help them, right?
**[03:02] ---**
Yep. Kids like them sell for quite a bit!
**[03:06] ---**
Eh?! Sell?!
**[03:08] ---**
What were you thinking?
**[03:10] ---**
Saving a life means a reward.
If not their money, then their body.
**[03:14] ---**
It's only natural.
**[03:17] ---**
Ah, I see. You're so cool...
**[03:22] ---**
I've never once lost a
pick-up-strewn-money contest!
**[03:25] ---**
Impressive, Master!
**[03:29] ---**
Another strandee.
**[03:31] ---**
Huh...? He's with those kids!
**[03:31] ---**
"Ideality and Reality"
**[03:37] ---**
A slight case of dehydration...
**[03:40] ---**
Still, this guy's really built...!
**[03:43] ---**
Not to mention good-looking...
**[03:45] ---**
I bet he'd--
**[03:48] ---**
Are we selling him?
**[03:50] ---**
How're they?
**[03:52] ---**
It looks like they're
going to be just fine.
**[03:54] ---**
Hey, get up!
**[03:56] ---**
Hey, you wanna die?!
**[03:59] ---**
Here's some water.
**[04:01] ---**
Whoopsies!
**[04:07] ---**
"Labor Contract"
**[04:07] ---**
Hold your horses. First you sign this.
**[04:14] ---**
I'm saved...!
**[04:16] ---**
Wonderful!
**[04:17] ---**
Now pay the million yen
for saving your life.
**[04:22] ---**
Like I really have that kind of money.
**[04:24] ---**
Then you'll just have to earn it...
**[04:28] ---**
You were probably trying to make
some money off of those kids too,
**[04:31] ---**
but I guess you screwed up...
**[04:33] ---**
I'd never do that!
**[04:35] ---**
I did lose my direction in
the magnetic storm two days ago
**[04:39] ---**
and wound up in big trouble, but...
**[04:41] ---**
But...
**[04:45] ---**
When I saw these kids, I just
couldn't bear to NOT help them...
**[04:59] ---**
What?
**[05:00] ---**
Don't tell me you actually helped someone
**[05:03] ---**
without care for profit or loss?
**[05:05] ---**
Yeah... Is that weird?
**[05:08] ---**
Yes!
**[05:10] ---**
You can't survive in this hellish desert
thinking creepy crap like that!
**[05:18] ---**
--It's always like this!
**[05:18] ---**
--You're always doing this, dumbass?!
**[05:21] ---**
Ahh, screw this! How about the brats?!
**[05:24] ---**
They got nothing.
**[05:26] ---**
We'll just hafta sell 'em!
**[05:28] ---**
H-hey!
**[05:30] ---**
What...?!
**[05:31] ---**
I'll pay for the children too!
Just give them their freedom!
**[05:40] ---**
Suit yourself, moron.
**[05:46] ---**
It certainly was nice to have
the IOUs signed without any trouble...!
**[05:52] ---**
Now you're officially mine...
**[05:56] ---**
Run and you'll be a wanted man!
**[05:59] ---**
I'd never run! I WILL pay you back!
**[06:10] ---**
Eat up.
**[06:11] ---**
Eh? But...
**[06:14] ---**
Stop...!
**[06:16] ---**
It's all right.
I don't feel like eating...
**[06:19] ---**
Sheesh...
**[06:21] ---**
Come to think of it,
I still don't know your names...
**[06:24] ---**
Oh, I'm Asari! My sister is Shijimi!
**[06:29] ---**
I'm Kaido Masaru. Nice to meet you!
**[06:41] ---**
"Personnel Bazaar"
**[06:42] ---**
No! Father...!
**[06:44] ---**
I'm sorry, Tsuyuko...!
**[06:46] ---**
I promise I'll be back
once I've saved enough money...!
**[06:49] ---**
Honey...! Honey...!
**[06:51] ---**
N- Norio...!
**[06:52] ---**
Here's your money!
**[06:54] ---**
No! No...! Give Dad back...!
**[06:57] ---**
Ooh, look at 'em go!
**[07:00] ---**
How sad...!
**[07:02] ---**
You're in a position
to pity other people?
**[07:08] ---**
This is one fine man!
**[07:10] ---**
Isn't he, though?! Isn't he, though?!
**[07:12] ---**
Just look at these muscles!
**[07:15] ---**
And these straight teeth!
**[07:16] ---**
They could withstand 10 years
of ultra-intensive labor!
**[07:20] ---**
Oh! So, how much?!
**[07:23] ---**
1.5 million...
**[07:25] ---**
"Bargain!!"
**[07:25] ---**
"Now's your chance!!"
**[07:25] ---**
...and 105 yen!
**[07:27] ---**
Too much!
**[07:27] ---**
Idiot!
**[07:27] ---**
"Ultra Intensive Labor- Looking
for young and healthy men!"
**[07:29] ---**
Ooh!
**[07:35] ---**
I specialize in pretty little girls...
**[07:41] ---**
Things certainly are tough...
**[07:43] ---**
Damn...!
**[07:46] ---**
What do you say we lower the price?
**[07:48] ---**
Never! I want 1,500,105 yen!
I absolutely want it!
**[07:53] ---**
Bastard...!
**[07:55] ---**
What're you laughin' at?!
**[07:56] ---**
Who do you think is
suffering 'cause of you?!
**[07:59] ---**
You damn greedmonger...!
**[08:03] ---**
You want money that badly?!
**[08:04] ---**
Duh!
**[08:06] ---**
Even if it means trampling
the weak and the poor?!
**[08:08] ---**
Duh!
**[08:14] ---**
What's with you?!
What're you trying to do?
**[08:18] ---**
You sacrifice yourself
to try and save some kids
**[08:20] ---**
by giving them your food
and spoutin' unprofitable crap...
**[08:26] ---**
I can't help it. That's just how I am.
**[08:32] ---**
Fine. Just looking at you pisses me off,
so let me fill you in.
**[08:37] ---**
A long time ago, some people
tried to create a society
**[08:42] ---**
where everyone helped each
other and lived happily.
**[08:46] ---**
And what happened to
the world as a result?
**[08:49] ---**
A bunch of scum mistakenly
felt they had gotten stronger...
**[08:52] ---**
...and you know what they
did to this planet, right?
**[08:58] ---**
Weren't the ones who made
this hellhole of a desert
**[09:01] ---**
the weaklings that you love oh-so-much?
**[09:04] ---**
You and wusses who only know
how to preach about idealism
**[09:10] ---**
give off the exact same stench.
**[09:14] ---**
M- Master...!
**[09:17] ---**
Stop, you brats!
**[09:19] ---**
Stop already!
**[09:20] ---**
If only they'd stop for 'em...
**[09:25] ---**
Huh?
**[09:26] ---**
Hold it!
**[09:28] ---**
Do you honestly think
you can beat that many?!
**[09:31] ---**
Just leave 'em be...!
**[09:34] ---**
Shijimi!
**[09:37] ---**
Damn brat...!
**[09:40] ---**
Shijimi...!
**[09:42] ---**
Thought you could get away, huh?!
**[09:44] ---**
Let go!
**[09:47] ---**
Let go!
**[09:52] ---**
Hey, now! What can you do unarmed?!
**[09:56] ---**
We can't let you
get injured now, can we?!
**[10:03] ---**
Could you let me have
my way just this once?!
**[10:06] ---**
I don't wish to hurt
the ones who saved me.
**[10:09] ---**
--Eep...!
**[10:09] ---**
--Eep...!
**[10:11] ---**
I don't need you to tell me now...
**[10:13] ---**
I know all too well that
what I do is extremely pointless...
**[10:19] ---**
That's why I've been
made fun of everywhere I go...
**[10:23] ---**
That's why I have no money
and no girlfriend...
**[10:27] ---**
But even so...!
**[10:32] ---**
S-such forcefulness...
I was scared senseless.
**[10:38] ---**
Those eyes...
**[10:45] ---**
I know...!
**[10:46] ---**
Yes...!
**[10:48] ---**
What're you doing?!
**[10:49] ---**
You with these brats?!
**[10:51] ---**
I know...!
**[10:56] ---**
I'm sad, but...
**[10:58] ---**
But...!
**[11:00] ---**
I have no choice...
**[11:03] ---**
It's the only way I'm able to live...!
**[11:07] ---**
I don't have a choice...!
**[11:28] ---**
I-incredible...!
**[11:30] ---**
I didn't know he was that strong...!
**[11:33] ---**
Wouldn't we be in trouble
if we made him mad too...?!
**[11:40] ---**
You'll pay for this!
**[11:47] ---**
Mister!
**[11:52] ---**
That was quite an interesting
performance you gave...
**[11:56] ---**
You're good.
**[12:00] ---**
Whoops! That's close enough!
**[12:03] ---**
So you're a soldier, huh...
**[12:05] ---**
Eh?!
**[12:06] ---**
A pretty elite one, too.
**[12:08] ---**
Like the ones that sneak around
the desert in small numbers...
**[12:12] ---**
I've seen 'em only once before,
in the very depths of the desert...
**[12:17] ---**
I watched a bandit gang
somewhat famous for its cruelty
**[12:21] ---**
get wiped out instantly by a strange
armed group I'd never seen before...
**[12:26] ---**
It was no ordinary military unit...
**[12:30] ---**
...and it wasn't
another bandit gang, either.
**[12:33] ---**
They made no wasted movements,
accomplished their goal,
**[12:37] ---**
and then left like the wind,
leaving no traces behind...
**[12:41] ---**
The techniques they used...
**[12:44] ---**
...were exactly like
the ones you used just now.
**[12:49] ---**
It's called like martial arts
or something, right?
**[12:52] ---**
What's that?
**[12:54] ---**
A killing technique passed down
from before the Dark Age, I hear.
**[13:00] ---**
Can't blame you for not knowin'
about it. It did die out long ago.
**[13:05] ---**
But I guess it survived
just fine in the Oasis...
**[13:10] ---**
in the military.
**[13:12] ---**
Looks like I hit it on the nose.
**[13:16] ---**
It finally adds up.
**[13:18] ---**
Supposedly, most Oasis soldiers
are born and bred in the Oasis...
**[13:23] ---**
...including you, right?
**[13:25] ---**
Wow!
**[13:26] ---**
You're from the Oasis!
**[13:29] ---**
No wonder you're
so na ve about everything...
**[13:32] ---**
So, what is an Oasis soldier
doing in a place like this?
**[13:40] ---**
You're pretty smart.
**[13:43] ---**
And you seem to know the score.
**[13:45] ---**
Which is why people
all over are out to get me.
**[13:49] ---**
I... can't live shrewdly like you do...
**[14:00] ---**
How dare you...!
**[14:01] ---**
How dare you hurt my friends...!
**[14:04] ---**
Yikes, he's those guys' friend?!
**[14:07] ---**
W-what now?!
**[14:13] ---**
OK, Masaru-kun! Go get him!
**[14:17] ---**
Isn't that the opposite of
what you were just saying?!
**[14:20] ---**
You're the only one
who can protect the runts!
**[14:27] ---**
Everything I always thought
was right since I was born
**[14:32] ---**
seems like crap now that
I've lost things to believe in...!
**[14:39] ---**
That's why I'm here, doing this now!
**[14:46] ---**
To find the path meant for me!
**[15:06] ---**
Whoa...!
**[15:07] ---**
Scary. So that's what
true martial arts are...
**[15:10] ---**
He's mine!
**[15:12] ---**
I found him first!
**[15:13] ---**
I want him...!
**[15:21] ---**
Alright! Nicely done!
**[15:24] ---**
You're suddenly cheerful.
**[15:27] ---**
A little...!
**[15:30] ---**
You're agonizing over something stupid,
you know that?
**[15:34] ---**
How so?
**[15:35] ---**
If there's something you
wanna believe in, just do it.
**[15:39] ---**
Heh.
**[15:40] ---**
You're the one who snubbed
what I do from the very start.
**[15:44] ---**
I didn't say NOT to do it;
I just said I really hate it.
**[15:50] ---**
I dunno what your story is,
**[15:52] ---**
but you really will die out here
if you keep moping around.
**[15:59] ---**
OK! I have 1.5 million!
Any other takers?!
**[16:02] ---**
1.6!
**[16:04] ---**
1.6 million! How generous of you, sir!
**[16:08] ---**
Are there any others?!
**[16:09] ---**
1.8 million!
**[16:11] ---**
Oh, man...!
**[16:12] ---**
Your price sure has skyrocketed...
**[16:16] ---**
They all saw that fight earlier.
**[16:21] ---**
Don't you care, Masaru-san?
**[16:24] ---**
I have no choice. A promise is a promise.
**[16:27] ---**
Question!
**[16:29] ---**
Yes?
**[16:30] ---**
You rescued those children
because you want to help the weak...
**[16:36] ---**
...but you can't take
care of them forever, right?
**[16:41] ---**
I suppose not...
**[16:43] ---**
Without you,
those weak children will die.
**[16:47] ---**
But if someone like my master saved them,
**[16:50] ---**
although traumatic from their perspective,
**[16:56] ---**
they'd still be able to live.
**[16:58] ---**
Just by being alive, they'd have
a chance- or time- to get stronger.
**[17:05] ---**
Am I wrong, Master?!
**[17:08] ---**
No, I haven't really put that
much thought into it or anything...
**[17:12] ---**
In the end, aren't you simply
satisfying your own empowered ego
**[17:17] ---**
and hindering the weak from growing
stronger by spoiling them more?!
**[17:25] ---**
Yeah!
**[17:26] ---**
I almost fell into a
soft way of thinking myself,
**[17:30] ---**
but my master's words earlier saved me!
**[17:33] ---**
Umm, no, I was just insulting you...
**[17:40] ---**
Nah, he knows all about that.
Or else he wouldn't be distraught.
**[17:45] ---**
But...!
**[17:50] ---**
So this is the Great Kanto Desert...
**[17:52] ---**
Yup.
**[17:53] ---**
Still...
**[17:56] ---**
I AM going to look for my path,
after all...
**[18:02] ---**
There're people who want
to grow strong but can't.
**[18:06] ---**
There're others who'll die
before they get a chance to.
**[18:09] ---**
I'm going to help them.
In an even better way...
**[18:15] ---**
Alright! I'll pay 2 million!
**[18:17] ---**
OK! We've reached the big 2-mill!
**[18:20] ---**
--Any others?!
**[18:20] ---**
--Huh? Come to think of
it, where are those kids?
**[18:23] ---**
Freeze right there! Move and you're dead!
**[18:27] ---**
We ain't done nothin'...!
**[18:29] ---**
Shut up! You'll have time
to talk at the station!
**[18:32] ---**
What's the charge?!
**[18:33] ---**
Fraud, theft, and murder!
**[18:36] ---**
Huh?!
**[18:36] ---**
And...
**[18:38] ---**
...aggravated assault against
the Water Station ♪3 Youth Group!
**[18:43] ---**
Eh?! That was a youth group...?!
**[18:47] ---**
Master...
**[18:50] ---**
Damn those brats...!
**[18:53] ---**
Unbelievable... To think
those two were actually--
**[18:56] ---**
--wanted thieves...
**[19:00] ---**
They'd pretend to be lost and
get travelers to pick 'em up,
**[19:00] ---**
"WANTED"
**[19:03] ---**
then they'd steal all their
money, food, and water...!
**[19:06] ---**
Talk about some shitty kids!
**[19:09] ---**
They certainly fooled us...
**[19:12] ---**
And to top it off,
**[19:14] ---**
the cops think we're in cahoots with them...!
**[19:18] ---**
We DID nearly kill the youth group
that tried to apprehend them...
**[19:28] ---**
For three days' time, the three
were interrogated most violently.
**[19:33] ---**
Incredibly so...!
**[19:40] ---**
Whee! Spinny, spinny! Spinny, spinny!
**[19:44] ---**
However!
**[19:46] ---**
Upon learning of Masaru's background,
**[19:48] ---**
the interrogator's attitude
completely changed
**[19:51] ---**
and the three were acquitted and released.
**[19:58] ---**
I still can't believe it...
**[20:01] ---**
Even little kids like them
have to resort to crime
**[20:06] ---**
to survive in the Great Kanto Desert...
**[20:10] ---**
How sad... It truly is Hell!
**[20:14] ---**
It's your fault! It's all because
you wanted to help people...!
**[20:20] ---**
W-what's with you?!
**[20:21] ---**
I'm glad we're free and all...
**[20:23] ---**
...but the money those brats stole,
the youth group's medical fees...
**[20:29] ---**
I wound up having to pay
for all of it myself...!
**[20:32] ---**
That's because you're my owner...!
**[20:35] ---**
And I lost my secret base
just the other day, too...!
**[20:40] ---**
And being saved by you even though
you're entirely to blame
**[20:45] ---**
makes no sense at all...!
**[20:47] ---**
What the hell?! It's your
fault for being so damn greedy!
**[21:01] ---**
How'd it go?!
**[21:02] ---**
Just peachy!
**[21:03] ---**
Great! So we got 2 million yen?!
**[21:07] ---**
No, half a million.
**[21:08] ---**
Eh?! Why did you lower the price?
**[21:10] ---**
'Cause 2 million can't possibly
make up for our losses...!
**[21:16] ---**
I take it you thought of
something even better...
**[21:21] ---**
Wanna hear it?!
**[21:22] ---**
Eh?! You sold him to a homo?!
**[21:28] ---**
I wish you could've seen his face...!
**[21:30] ---**
What do you eat to come up
with such cruel ideas...?
**[21:34] ---**
I bet that hardhead'll
soften up a little now!
**[21:38] ---**
I told him this is
another way of helping people!
**[21:42] ---**
He's so going to hate us...!
**[21:50] ---**
And so, on their way home...
**[21:53] ---**
Master! Master! Look!
**[21:56] ---**
They're trying to get sympathy again.
Should we capture 'em?!
**[22:04] ---**
--Leave 'em be.
**[22:04] ---**
--Eh?!
**[22:05] ---**
They're way more Great Kanto Desert-ish
than that other dumbass.
**[22:16] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert is harsh, indeed.
**[23:57] ---**
Yo, it's Nice Guy of the Desert,
Kaido Masaru!
**[23:59] ---**
Next episode, I start--
**[24:00] ---**
Hey! For a guest,
you sure got some nerve!
**[24:03] ---**
I haven't even gotten
to take over a preview yet!
**[24:05] ---**
Go get sold, loser!
**[24:07] ---**
Next episode- "Kosuna and Full-Auto"
**[24:09] ---**
Miss it and we'll possess you!

"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[01:39] ---**
I'm Koizumi Taiko!
**[01:41] ---**
I'm 14 and intent on being the
Great Kanto Desert's ♪1 skilled beauty!
**[01:47] ---**
Kosuna Change!
**[01:50] ---**
When trouble's afoot, I transform
into the super-equipped Kosuna
**[01:53] ---**
and beat the bad desert people senseless!
**[01:57] ---**
Tadah!
**[01:58] ---**
We give up...!
**[02:01] ---**
I do mess up once in a while,
**[02:03] ---**
but my master's encouragement
helps me do my best!
**[02:21] ---**
How many are there?!
**[02:24] ---**
What happened?!
**[02:25] ---**
Damn! A pitfall...!
**[02:27] ---**
--Look out! There's pitfalls everywhere!
**[02:29] ---**
--Or so I wish...
**[02:32] ---**
Sometimes I wonder if I should
really keep doing this...
**[02:35] ---**
I became his pupil so I could become
the desert's most skilled beauty,
**[02:41] ---**
but what I do is so far from that goal...
**[02:45] ---**
They're on the move! South-22!
**[02:49] ---**
Hey!
**[02:51] ---**
Hey!
**[02:53] ---**
Yes...?!
**[02:54] ---**
What the hell're you doing?!
**[02:56] ---**
Go get all the dummy balloons!
**[02:58] ---**
Right...!
**[03:05] ---**
"Kosuna and Full-Auto"
**[03:14] ---**
Dammit...! What's goin' on?!
**[03:16] ---**
Where is he?! Where'd he go?!
**[03:18] ---**
Tadah!
**[03:23] ---**
He disappeared again!
**[03:25] ---**
So he IS with Kuronuma...!
**[03:27] ---**
Well, duh! Let's go!
**[03:29] ---**
Mommy...!
**[03:31] ---**
H-hey!
**[03:36] ---**
What happened to you?!
**[03:38] ---**
What happened up there?!
**[03:39] ---**
He even stole my undies...!
**[03:41] ---**
I dunno who he is, but this ain't good!
**[03:44] ---**
Let's get our asses back to camp!
**[03:47] ---**
W-wait for me...!
**[03:48] ---**
Ow ow...! My feet are burning...!
**[03:57] ---**
Here we are.
**[04:02] ---**
Two more to go...
**[04:05] ---**
All this work and I'm still
no closer to my goal...
**[04:10] ---**
Yeah, to be the Great Kanto Desert's
greatest skilled beauty...!
**[04:17] ---**
I got you now, Sunabozu!
**[04:19] ---**
Damn! I can't believe
I fell into a trap!
**[04:21] ---**
Oh no! Whatever will I do?!
**[04:24] ---**
This will be the graveyard for
the Ghost of the Desert, Sunabozu!
**[04:28] ---**
Die!
**[04:33] ---**
Impossible! Who could
shoot so accurately?!
**[04:36] ---**
Oh, my! I'm saved in the nick of time!
Whoever could it be?!
**[04:42] ---**
Handyman of the Desert,
Kosuna, at your service!
**[04:45] ---**
You desert-infesting villains!
Go home right this minute!
**[04:50] ---**
What?!
**[04:51] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert's greatest
skilled beauty, Kosuna-chan?!
**[04:58] ---**
I love you, Kosuna-tan!
**[04:59] ---**
Gimme your autograph!
**[05:01] ---**
We surrender!
**[05:03] ---**
You saved me, Kosuna!
**[05:05] ---**
You no longer need my help.
**[05:08] ---**
From this day forth, you're a
superb handyman in your own right!
**[05:12] ---**
Congratulations!
**[05:14] ---**
Congratulations!
**[05:16] ---**
Congratulations!
**[05:28] ---**
At any rate, even with loser
small-fry work I need to try my hardest...
**[05:33] ---**
Loser small-fry, huh?!
**[05:36] ---**
Dummy balloons and a shovel...!
**[05:38] ---**
So YOU set this all up,
you puny wench...!
**[05:44] ---**
I'm gonna tear you apart...!
**[05:50] ---**
A bulletproof vest?!
**[05:52] ---**
Pipsqueak...!
**[05:57] ---**
What a right jab...!
**[06:02] ---**
Damn bastard got deserted
by his friends and panicked...
**[06:06] ---**
Master!
**[06:08] ---**
So what were you doing?
**[06:11] ---**
Caught by surprise or not, you still
let an unarmed jackass get you.
**[06:15] ---**
Can't you even do backup support right?
**[06:17] ---**
I- I'm sorry...
**[06:19] ---**
You'll never get on
the front lines like that!
**[06:23] ---**
Y-yes, sir...
**[06:24] ---**
A crappy job like this normally
wouldn't even call for someone like me,
**[06:29] ---**
yet I can't even trust
my own student to it!
**[06:32] ---**
Yes, sir...
**[06:33] ---**
You think too much during work, don't ya?
**[06:37] ---**
I bet you were
spacing off again this time...!
**[06:40] ---**
Yes...
**[06:41] ---**
Geez, so you're so useless...
**[06:46] ---**
"Water Station ♪30"
**[06:50] ---**
Damn it! It's jammed again!
**[06:53] ---**
Guess it's no use...
**[06:54] ---**
Full-autos just don't
last long in the desert...
**[06:57] ---**
We'll just have to get it tuned up.
**[06:59] ---**
"Igarashi Gun Shop" "Made-to-Order"
**[07:00] ---**
You dolt!
**[07:03] ---**
Don't be spoutin' hogwash and
forgettin' you can't handle guns right!
**[07:07] ---**
But, Mister...!
**[07:09] ---**
Shut up!
**[07:10] ---**
If you're that scared of trouble
then get yourself a damn knife!
**[07:14] ---**
There ain't no guns in
my shop for the likes of you!
**[07:22] ---**
You're the same as ever,
Igarashi-meijin...!
**[07:25] ---**
Oh, if it isn't the asshole.
Still alive, huh?
**[07:29] ---**
Thanks to you...
**[07:31] ---**
What brings you today?
**[07:33] ---**
Not me, this here brat.
**[07:37] ---**
H-hello!
**[07:39] ---**
My name is Koizumi Taiko;
I work under Sunabozu-sensei!
**[07:44] ---**
You see, she blames her gun
for screwing up a job
**[07:48] ---**
and won't stop complaining
about how she wants a stronger one...
**[07:52] ---**
I hit him! But he didn't even budge!
**[07:55] ---**
If I'd had a stronger gun,
I'm certain I would've beaten--
**[07:58] ---**
You know it's not about if you hit him
or if the gun was strong or weak!
**[08:04] ---**
It was because you let
that moron spot you!
**[08:07] ---**
I- I realize that, but...!
**[08:11] ---**
But I'm upset I wasn't able to
clean up my own mess back there!
**[08:18] ---**
Listen! You've started to think
too much lately-- quit it!
**[08:22] ---**
Girls don't need to use their heads...!
**[08:25] ---**
No! I want to be able
to take care of myself!
**[08:29] ---**
Alright.
**[08:31] ---**
Come with me.
**[08:44] ---**
Try shooting this.
**[08:49] ---**
What's wrong?
**[08:51] ---**
I don't want this;
**[08:52] ---**
I want a .308 assault rifle
and a Magnum handgun!
**[08:56] ---**
Geez, will you get real?!
**[08:59] ---**
I know it's beyond me!
**[09:02] ---**
But I want something that can
blow someone away in one shot!
**[09:07] ---**
Please! I swear I'll get
good enough to master it!
**[09:11] ---**
Could you show me your skill...?
**[09:16] ---**
I work hard to make 'em. I don't
want 'em to wind up useless...
**[09:24] ---**
All right! I'll shoot any gun you want!
**[09:27] ---**
Then for starters...
**[09:29] ---**
Yes?! A .223?! Or maybe
straight to a .308?!
**[09:34] ---**
...could you dig me a hole?
**[09:38] ---**
The shovels are right there.
**[09:42] ---**
Understood!
**[09:48] ---**
I'm here to buy a gun,
so why do I have to dig holes?
**[09:51] ---**
No! Don't you prefer the big shovel?!
**[09:57] ---**
So that's the deal...
**[10:25] ---**
It's too long... And hard to use...!
**[10:30] ---**
I know what you're trying to say!
**[10:32] ---**
Keep practicality in mind, right?!
**[10:36] ---**
Choose a gun that suits my size, right?!
**[10:43] ---**
How cute...!
**[10:51] ---**
I refuse to give in!
I absolutely won't give in!
**[10:56] ---**
The guns best suited for me
are super powerful ones!
**[11:00] ---**
I want a .308!
**[11:03] ---**
I want a gun that's unbeatable!
**[11:25] ---**
So those wellionaires are still at it?
**[11:28] ---**
Yep. In some ruins up north.
**[11:31] ---**
Kuronuma and Tomikawa, was it?
**[11:33] ---**
You sure are involved
in some dinky stuff...
**[11:37] ---**
It's not my fault; it's just
a job I got from the Mugenya.
**[11:40] ---**
But it's only for a limited time
**[11:42] ---**
until their bodyguard who got
appendicitis gets out of the hospital...!
**[11:49] ---**
Wait, don't tell me that's--
**[11:52] ---**
Impressive. You noticed.
**[11:55] ---**
So it is...?!
**[11:56] ---**
Yup.
**[11:57] ---**
At first glance, it doesn't
seem different from any other M2...
**[12:02] ---**
...but it's a First Replica.
**[12:05] ---**
I assume you know all the guns
used here in the Great Kanto Desert
**[12:10] ---**
are replicas based on items
excavated from the Dark Age.
**[12:14] ---**
Every last original dug up was
confiscated by the Oasis government,
**[12:20] ---**
and after analytical studies, only stuff
deemed appropriate for civilians
**[12:25] ---**
was delivered to us ordinary citizens...
**[12:29] ---**
They say in a high-security room
deep within a government building
**[12:34] ---**
lies a huge amount
of valuable originals...
**[12:37] ---**
Isn't it called the Treasure Vault?
**[12:41] ---**
Yup. I've only heard
rumors about it, though.
**[12:45] ---**
Supposedly there's also super-advanced
technology from the final days
**[12:48] ---**
that we can't even begin to
analyze with current technology.
**[12:56] ---**
And the first models made based on
those originals are First Replicas.
**[13:08] ---**
Whadya think?
**[13:09] ---**
Completely different from all
those replicas of replicas.
**[13:13] ---**
From the materials to the workmanship...
It's all ultra-top-of-the-line.
**[13:18] ---**
But who's the big spender?!
**[13:20] ---**
You'd need some major connections
with the Oasis government
**[13:22] ---**
or some major dough
to get something like this...
**[13:27] ---**
"Specifications"
**[13:30] ---**
Don't tell me this familiar-yet-tasteless
customization belongs to--
**[13:41] ---**
Yes...! It is I!
**[13:46] ---**
You're as rambunctious as ever...
**[13:51] ---**
My bad.
**[13:52] ---**
The Greatest Handyman
in the Desert, Sunabozu-sama,
**[13:56] ---**
must be exhausted from his big land war!
**[14:00] ---**
And Amagumo-sensei played such
a big part at Dog-Girl Rock
**[14:04] ---**
that I almost got credit for it
swiped right out from under me!
**[14:12] ---**
Incidentally, Gunsmith,
how is the gun I ordered?
**[14:15] ---**
--I've been swamped.
**[14:16] ---**
--Hey! Don't ignore me!
**[14:17] ---**
--Gimme a few more days.
**[14:18] ---**
--Hey! Amagumo!
**[14:20] ---**
Understood. I want it to be
exactly like my previous gun.
**[14:24] ---**
For that I will wait
any number of days...
**[14:27] ---**
Hey, you...!
**[14:30] ---**
You seem to be doing quite well lately!
**[14:34] ---**
Do repo men really make that much?!
**[14:36] ---**
I've given up the repo business.
**[14:39] ---**
Anyway, Gunsmith. I'll be back.
**[14:41] ---**
Sure. You can pay for the door then, too.
**[14:45] ---**
Understood...
**[14:47] ---**
Hey!
**[14:48] ---**
I'll tell you this much.
**[14:51] ---**
Money isn't buried under the eaves
of poor people's houses.
**[14:55] ---**
Where do you think it IS buried?
**[14:57] ---**
Huh?!
**[14:59] ---**
The battlefield.
**[15:13] ---**
I dunno the details, but it sounds
like he found a good source of money.
**[15:22] ---**
Slow and steady wins the race.
**[15:24] ---**
What the hell is he doing,
**[15:25] ---**
quitting the repo business
after all that time?
**[15:29] ---**
Who're you to talk? You don't plan
to be a handyman forever, do ya?
**[15:46] ---**
You do me too much credit!
**[15:49] ---**
I guess I do!
**[15:53] ---**
Well, let's go!
**[15:54] ---**
Eh?
**[15:55] ---**
She must be spent by now.
**[16:12] ---**
Hey, you alive?
**[16:15] ---**
I was--
**[16:17] ---**
Here.
**[16:19] ---**
W-water!
**[16:25] ---**
Moron. You tried too hard!
**[16:28] ---**
B-but...!
**[16:30] ---**
Here.
**[16:33] ---**
This is what you want, isn't it?
**[16:43] ---**
A .308 full-auto FN-FAL.
**[16:47] ---**
It's a tad heavier than the G3 series,
but a good desert gun.
**[16:55] ---**
I-it's heavy...!
**[17:05] ---**
But...!
**[17:08] ---**
One shot from 150 meters...?!
**[17:18] ---**
H-holy crap...
**[17:23] ---**
My word...!
**[17:27] ---**
It's too strong!
My shoulder's already hurting...
**[17:31] ---**
And its weight and kickback are insane...
**[17:34] ---**
It's so long and heavy and big...!
**[17:59] ---**
An AK jumps even more.
**[18:01] ---**
That's too light. What do you say?
**[18:05] ---**
Would you like to try some others?
**[18:08] ---**
I have an M14 and a Model 64--
**[18:13] ---**
It's too much for me after all.
**[18:16] ---**
It'd be so hard to lug this thing
and spare ammo all around the desert
**[18:21] ---**
that it'd get in the way of work.
**[18:23] ---**
There's no question
I'd be a burden on my master.
**[18:29] ---**
A gun is a tool. Whether a tool
saves or kills depends on the user.
**[18:34] ---**
Just having a good tool
doesn't make you stronger.
**[18:37] ---**
Just look at him.
**[18:41] ---**
Me?
**[18:42] ---**
In all my 55 years I've never
seen anyone as despicable as him.
**[18:49] ---**
He's cowardly, stingy,
scrawny, and spiteful...
**[18:52] ---**
And I dunno why,
but he's garishly overbearing.
**[18:56] ---**
Gunsmith...! Come on, that's not very--
**[18:59] ---**
But...
**[19:03] ---**
But what ticks me off the most
**[19:06] ---**
is that this bastard treks across
this hellish Great Kanto Desert
**[19:10] ---**
with the shabby shotgun he got
as a memento from his old man.
**[19:20] ---**
A .308 and .223.
A rocket launcher with grenades.
**[19:23] ---**
He's even made sport
of an armed hovercraft
**[19:26] ---**
and continues to live
a happy-go-lucky life.
**[19:29] ---**
All with that run-of-the-mill shotgun.
**[19:34] ---**
Not to mention it's plainly obvious
he's lived a dirty, scummy life.
**[19:40] ---**
No, I'm just living life
to the fullest...!
**[19:44] ---**
You see? Isn't he a scumbag?
**[19:46] ---**
Yes!
**[19:47] ---**
I think he's a very strong person!
**[20:00] ---**
I see! A strong person, eh?!
**[20:06] ---**
It was then that I finally understood.
**[20:11] ---**
What I really wanted
wasn't a powerful gun.
**[20:17] ---**
No, it was...
**[20:27] ---**
Wow!
**[20:28] ---**
Whadya think?
**[20:30] ---**
It's perfect! It fits great in my hands!
**[20:32] ---**
Hold on. I gotta fix one last thing.
**[20:35] ---**
OK!
**[20:35] ---**
Hey.
**[20:37] ---**
What is it, Master?
**[20:38] ---**
That 9-mm submachine gun
doesn't pack much of a punch,
**[20:41] ---**
and it's pretty hard to master.
**[20:44] ---**
R-right! I'll work hard
to make it my own!
**[20:49] ---**
I look forward to seeing that happen.
**[20:51] ---**
Dammit...!
**[20:53] ---**
This means Igarashi judged her
to have enough skill to master it...!
**[21:00] ---**
So, let me make this clear right now!
**[21:03] ---**
Yes?!
**[21:06] ---**
Hot girls with giant boobs don't need
to be independent to live...!
**[21:15] ---**
Damn! Retreat!
**[21:16] ---**
I can't tell where he is!
**[21:18] ---**
Retreat! Retreat!
**[21:22] ---**
A pitfall!
**[21:23] ---**
Watch out!
**[21:25] ---**
It's a trap!
**[21:33] ---**
He disappeared...!
**[21:34] ---**
Kosuna! I've neutralized
the South-11 enemies!
**[21:37] ---**
Get to work on the North-8 stuff!
**[21:39] ---**
I'm gonna flush out the rest of 'em!
**[21:42] ---**
Roger!
**[21:42] ---**
I've been stripped...!
**[21:52] ---**
I still haven't shot a single bullet...
**[21:55] ---**
No, no!
**[22:00] ---**
Quit thinking about stuff! Work, work!
**[22:03] ---**
It seems like all I do is dig holes...
but it's all part of my training!
**[22:12] ---**
What I really wanted...
**[22:15] ---**
Yes, I'm certain it was a strong heart
that could accept my weakness...
**[23:57] ---**
Yay! I finally have a theme song!
I guess I'm the new main character!
**[24:00] ---**
You wish! Wait, this isn't
the normal preview song...!
**[24:02] ---**
Next time is the start
of "Magical Kosuna-tan"!
**[24:04] ---**
Episode 1 is "Idiot Frog
in Dog-Ear Mode"! Everyone laugh!
**[24:07] ---**
Next time is really
"Siblings and Childhood Friends"!
**[24:08] ---**
Miss it and it WILL turn
into a cutesy anime!

**[02:35] ---**
Hey, you!
**[02:37] ---**
Get back here!

So what's this about?
**[02:55] ---**
Where's the puny one, your student?
**[02:58] ---**
She's usually scamperin' all around...
**[03:01] ---**
Well, this ain't a job.
What about that Haru-loser of yours?
**[03:06] ---**
Now that the three of you combined
finally equal one real man,
**[03:09] ---**
he's pretty damn important.
**[03:10] ---**
--Bastard...!
**[03:11] ---**
--Haruo's got a date today.
**[03:12] ---**
Oh, the usual boy toy?
**[03:15] ---**
Why, you little...!
**[03:17] ---**
Still, I'm impressed. You actually
came unarmed like we said...
**[03:22] ---**
Who needs guns to handle you guys?
**[03:25] ---**
If we showed up with guns, we'd obviously
shoot it out at some point...
**[03:31] ---**
You'd be a waste of ammo...
**[03:37] ---**
Listen. If they make any weird moves at all,
**[03:41] ---**
fill their heads with lead!
**[03:43] ---**
What great childhood friends;
he doesn't even trust 'em one millimeter!
**[03:53] ---**
It's Haruo!
**[03:54] ---**
Childhood friends sure
know how to think alike...!
**[04:00] ---**
You owe us one.
**[04:01] ---**
Huh?
**[04:02] ---**
We saved you, remember?
**[04:04] ---**
Huh? That was your job.
How does that make me owe you?
**[04:08] ---**
You're gonna help us with a job.
**[04:10] ---**
Oh! Why didn't you just
say you needed my help?!
**[04:14] ---**
We don't! We're only doing this
'cause Natsuko says to hire you!
**[04:18] ---**
Eh?! Natsuko's coming back?!
**[04:21] ---**
Brother's in danger...!
**[04:26] ---**
Aw, crap...!
**[04:28] ---**
Dammit...!
**[04:35] ---**
--Hey!
**[04:35] ---**
--Stop! Stop it!
**[04:42] ---**
Can't trust you guys one bit!
**[04:44] ---**
Like you're one to talk!
**[04:45] ---**
So, is it true Natsuko's coming back?
**[04:49] ---**
It's true.
**[04:50] ---**
She works for the
Oasis government now, right?
**[04:53] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:54] ---**
So this is a government job?
**[04:56] ---**
Dunno. Says she'll explain
when she gets here.
**[05:00] ---**
So, when is she coming?
**[05:04] ---**
There she is.
**[05:09] ---**
Fuyu-niisan...!
**[05:10] ---**
Aki-niisan...!
**[05:12] ---**
Haruo...!
**[05:13] ---**
It's good to see you, guys!
**[05:16] ---**
Oh! You're so womanly now!
**[05:19] ---**
Kan-chan?!
**[05:20] ---**
Your boobs sure have grown!
Because of me, I bet...!
**[05:24] ---**
Oh, you...!
**[05:26] ---**
So, what's this job...?
**[05:28] ---**
A request from the government,
of course. It'll be worth a lot!
**[05:34] ---**
Wow! We'll gain prestige
doing government work!
**[05:38] ---**
Yeah, though this
ain't our first time...!

Well, it IS an Oasis government truck!
**[06:32] ---**
It looks so powerful!
**[06:33] ---**
Well, it IS an Oasis government truck!
**[06:36] ---**
It's so awesome that Natsuko-san
is captain of this transport unit...!
**[06:45] ---**
"Water Station ♪6"
**[06:52] ---**
So much came out...!
**[07:00] ---**
Tube connection complete!
**[07:01] ---**
Open the valve!
**[07:03] ---**
Commence suction!
**[07:08] ---**
Master! It's sucking!
**[07:10] ---**
Well, it IS an Oasis... vacuum car...
**[07:15] ---**
What's wrong?
**[07:17] ---**
I was expecting it to be a big job
since it IS for the Oasis government,
**[07:21] ---**
but it's just shit transport....
**[07:23] ---**
Don't say that, Master!
**[07:25] ---**
Even Natsuko-san said
that this is an important job
**[07:27] ---**
to help support food production
in the West Oasis District...!
**[07:31] ---**
Maybe so, but...
**[07:33] ---**
No usin' the john like some big shot!
**[07:36] ---**
B-but I'll pee myself...!
**[07:38] ---**
You deserve to shit in the fields
for disobeying the Oasis government!
**[07:42] ---**
You bastard...!
**[07:44] ---**
Ow...! What's the big idea?!
**[07:48] ---**
Y-you're...
**[07:49] ---**
...the captain!
**[07:52] ---**
Fertilizer is essential
for vegetable fields.
**[07:55] ---**
It helps support life
in the Great Kanto Desert.
**[07:58] ---**
Using violence against citizens
who help produce that fertilizer
**[08:02] ---**
is the height of stupidity!
**[08:05] ---**
I'm sorry...! I'm sorry...!
**[08:09] ---**
It's all right now.
Please excrete with an easy mind.
**[08:13] ---**
Thank you!
**[08:17] ---**
S-so cool!
Natsuko-san is a skilled beauty!
**[08:22] ---**
That crybaby sure grew self-important!
**[08:25] ---**
There's no time for playing around.
**[08:30] ---**
Master. You ARE childhood friends, right?
**[08:33] ---**
Of course!
**[08:34] ---**
Me and Natsuko have TONS of
beautiful childhood memories!
**[08:39] ---**
It didn't look that way, though...
**[08:41] ---**
We're going to the next water station
before the sun sets. Hurry.
**[08:44] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[08:46] ---**
N- Natsu-ne is awesome...!
She's so quick and efficient...!
**[08:51] ---**
That's a captain for ya.
They gotta be cool...
**[08:54] ---**
Don't neither of you be
screwing up and shaming Natsuko!
**[08:58] ---**
Be as cool as always!
**[09:00] ---**
Let's kick a couple hundred bandit asses!
**[09:04] ---**
It's almost like a picnic...
**[09:06] ---**
Huh? Pic... niku (meat)...?
**[09:10] ---**
What meat?
**[09:11] ---**
I mean you seem to be having fun.
**[09:14] ---**
But of course we are!
**[09:15] ---**
It's not everyday we get
such an honorable job!
**[09:19] ---**
Only way you lame handymen
can get Oasis government work
**[09:24] ---**
is by being lucky to have a
low-class captain for a sister...
**[09:28] ---**
What'd you say?! Did you
call Natsuko low-class?!
**[09:31] ---**
We're hauling shit, you know! Shit!
**[09:33] ---**
Ain't nobody would take this job!
**[09:36] ---**
This crappy mission is perfect
for a lowly captain not from the Oasis!
**[09:42] ---**
Which makes you the rotting shit
**[09:45] ---**
oozing beneath that lowly captain!
**[09:50] ---**
Bastards...!
**[09:52] ---**
You want some?!
**[09:53] ---**
Yay! The rotting shit is mad!
**[10:04] ---**
Natsuko...
**[10:10] ---**
Sorry, Captain...!
**[10:12] ---**
We thought we would say hello
to the soldiers to be polite...
**[10:18] ---**
Sorry! We'll get right back to work!
**[10:22] ---**
We're finished here.
We leave immediately.
**[10:25] ---**
Yes, ma'am...!
**[10:31] ---**
You idiot!
**[10:34] ---**
What're you shaming Natsuko for?!
**[10:37] ---**
S-sorry! I just snapped...
**[10:40] ---**
Do something about that attitude!
**[10:44] ---**
Totally.
**[10:46] ---**
Don't add oil to the fire!
**[10:54] ---**
Bodyguards?
**[10:55] ---**
Yes! Done been five handymen
besides the soldiers...!
**[10:59] ---**
Could they have found out about us?
**[11:01] ---**
No, five would be too few...
**[11:03] ---**
They're no ordinary five.
**[11:07] ---**
One of them is the Sunabozu.
**[11:09] ---**
THE Sunabozu...?!
**[11:11] ---**
Yes. The Ghost of the Desert.
**[11:16] ---**
This'll be interesting, Sunabozu...
**[11:29] ---**
Master, what did he mean when
he said nobody would take this job?
**[11:35] ---**
Crap IS valuable,
but not worth much money.
**[11:38] ---**
If you wanna rake in the dough,
you need a big facility
**[11:41] ---**
and hundreds of truckloads of shit.
**[11:45] ---**
It must be really hard to sell...
**[11:48] ---**
If someone DID go after it,
he'd have to be a real big shot.
**[11:51] ---**
No wonder there are so few people
on such an important assignment...
**[11:57] ---**
What happened?!
**[12:00] ---**
What the...?
**[12:02] ---**
Damn boulders are blockin' the way...!
**[12:05] ---**
You five handymen! Go check it out!
**[12:07] ---**
'Kay...
**[12:10] ---**
Stay alert!
**[12:14] ---**
What do you suppose it is?
**[12:15] ---**
It's just a clich .
There can't possibly be any enemies.
**[12:22] ---**
Well? Can we get through?
**[12:25] ---**
Maybe if we had some dynamite...
**[12:27] ---**
Can't go around either.
**[12:29] ---**
The sand's so deep around
here the tires would get--
**[12:33] ---**
What happened?!
**[12:34] ---**
Electronic jamming!
We can't contact anyone!
**[12:52] ---**
It's a raid!
**[12:54] ---**
A trap...?!
**[13:05] ---**
Ow...! Dammit...! Thought I was
a goner for sure this time...!
**[13:10] ---**
F- Fuyu-niichan!
**[13:12] ---**
You OK?! Oh crap...!
**[13:15] ---**
Looks like he has broken ribs!
**[13:16] ---**
Let's just hope his insides are OK...!
**[13:18] ---**
Let's get back to the truck!
**[13:20] ---**
I don't think so!
**[13:22] ---**
Master...!
**[13:36] ---**
Yo.
**[13:37] ---**
Hey, Amagumo! What're you doin' out here?
**[13:40] ---**
You're the same as ever, Sunabozu.
**[13:43] ---**
I thought I'd settle
the score from the other day...
**[13:47] ---**
No...
**[13:48] ---**
Maybe it already IS settled.
**[13:53] ---**
Don't shoot!
**[13:56] ---**
Don't shoot...!
**[13:58] ---**
How pathetic...
**[14:01] ---**
To think the South Oasis'
♪1 repo man, Amagumo-san...
**[14:06] ---**
...would stoop to being
a grubby little bandit!
**[14:08] ---**
And whose fault is that?!
**[14:11] ---**
Don't tell me it's 'cause you
screwed up all those jobs...!
**[14:15] ---**
Quiet!
**[14:17] ---**
It's time for you to die...
**[14:20] ---**
I need to end this
before the smokescreen clears...
**[14:25] ---**
So he ordered that weapon
the other day just for this...?!
**[14:29] ---**
Which means he's completely prepared...!
**[14:32] ---**
This ain't good...!
**[14:34] ---**
Incidentally, you're after
the West Oasis truck, right?!
**[14:38] ---**
Master's starting a cheap trick...
**[14:41] ---**
Do you know what's stored in that thing?!
**[14:43] ---**
You'd be so shocked
and bummed if you did!
**[14:45] ---**
Shit, right?
**[14:56] ---**
You attacked when you knew it was shit?
**[14:58] ---**
But of course.
**[15:07] ---**
T-that's awesome.
**[15:08] ---**
I suppose.
**[15:10] ---**
What's going on? What's the matter?
**[15:13] ---**
He's frozen stiff...!
**[15:18] ---**
I've never seen him this nervous before!
**[15:22] ---**
N-now I see...!
**[15:23] ---**
The fact they attacked knowingly
means the enemy is a real big shot...!
**[15:36] ---**
Blast! They got good recon...!
**[15:39] ---**
Let's go, Haruo!
**[15:40] ---**
Right!
**[15:41] ---**
Jump on, Kosuna!
**[15:42] ---**
Right!
**[15:48] ---**
They have one exceptionally
attractive commander...
**[15:51] ---**
I like ones like that...
**[15:53] ---**
It's a shame the Sunabozu got away.
**[15:55] ---**
No matter. The plan itself
went perfectly!
**[16:02] ---**
Natsuko...
**[16:03] ---**
I mean, Captain...
**[16:05] ---**
Could we stop by a town with a doctor?
**[16:07] ---**
Bro doesn't look good.
He could have internal injuries...!
**[16:12] ---**
I can't do that. We're heading
straight for West Oasis.
**[16:16] ---**
Returning this vehicle and cargo
to the Oasis intact is top priority!
**[16:20] ---**
Then he could--
**[16:23] ---**
The captain's right.
**[16:25] ---**
If we lose this car, we lose everything...
**[16:29] ---**
It's best to haul ass
when you're in trouble...!
**[16:31] ---**
B-but...!
**[16:34] ---**
How's the radio?!
**[16:34] ---**
Still no luck!
**[16:36] ---**
It's not that strong a signal,
**[16:39] ---**
so how can it jam over such a wide area?
**[16:42] ---**
It couldn't be...!
**[16:46] ---**
What is this?!
**[16:51] ---**
So that's why...!
**[16:58] ---**
Master...!
**[16:59] ---**
Dammit!
**[17:13] ---**
Akio!
**[17:16] ---**
You take the other end!
**[17:17] ---**
Right!
**[17:18] ---**
Shut this door and lock it!
**[17:20] ---**
But...!
**[17:21] ---**
That's an order! It's all over
if they get the driver's seat!
**[17:24] ---**
R-right!
**[17:26] ---**
I'm going around left!
You better hold this spot!
**[17:29] ---**
I know! Don't tell me what to do!
**[17:32] ---**
Artillery gun's just a
decoration once they're onboard...
**[17:35] ---**
It's so strong it'd destroy the car!
**[17:38] ---**
This is bad! We gotta do something...!
**[17:40] ---**
Huh? Where's Natsuko-san?!
**[17:41] ---**
Eh?
**[17:42] ---**
She's gone!
**[17:43] ---**
Damn! She escaped into the driver's seat!
**[17:46] ---**
Captain, my ass! THIS is
why low-classers suck...!
**[17:49] ---**
You idiot! You'll be killed!
**[17:52] ---**
Look at their shots! They're all
too high! They can't see us either!
**[17:57] ---**
This is my chance to earn prestige!
**[17:59] ---**
Even if you are low-class or female,
if you're good, it doesn't matter!
**[18:05] ---**
What's this? Was this always here...?
**[18:07] ---**
Knock knock.
**[18:09] ---**
Yes?
**[18:17] ---**
Why, you...!
**[18:21] ---**
That was close...!
**[18:40] ---**
I knew it!
**[18:42] ---**
She IS a skilled beauty...!
**[18:45] ---**
Over here too, huh?!
**[18:49] ---**
Hey, the gunfire stopped!
**[18:51] ---**
They couldn't break through either side?!
**[18:56] ---**
Bastards! Die!
**[19:05] ---**
Ow...!
**[19:08] ---**
The rear enemies have been disposed of.
How about the front?!
**[19:11] ---**
They ran off!
**[19:13] ---**
Make certain none are left!
**[19:15] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[19:25] ---**
You actually would've died there.
Don't be reckless like that any more.
**[19:29] ---**
R-right, I'm sorry...
**[19:33] ---**
Thanks. To be honest,
getting on the tank was easy,
**[19:38] ---**
but I couldn't find the
right chance to jump them.
**[19:41] ---**
I owe you one!
**[19:43] ---**
Yes! Thank you!
**[19:50] ---**
Yo, what's up?
**[19:51] ---**
Master!
**[19:52] ---**
Natsuko-san was amazing!
**[19:54] ---**
How so?
**[19:55] ---**
She suddenly showed up and went
bam- bam- bam to beat 'em up!
**[20:00] ---**
Huh?!
**[20:01] ---**
It was like, you know... him!
**[20:05] ---**
She used the same moves Kaido Masaru did!
**[20:13] ---**
How is he?!
**[20:14] ---**
H-he's okay! He's asleep!
**[20:17] ---**
T-this person just
gave him some morphine...!
**[20:31] ---**
This'll take until morning to fix...
**[20:34] ---**
I sure wish we could use
the radio to call for help...
**[20:37] ---**
Yeah. Dammit, where the hell's
that jamming signal coming from?!
**[20:41] ---**
Speaking of which, did you
hear what that runt was saying?
**[20:45] ---**
About how the captain used martial arts?
**[20:48] ---**
That means she had special training...
**[20:51] ---**
How was she able to do special
training when she was born a civilian?
**[20:55] ---**
Who knows.
**[20:56] ---**
But this obviously ain't just
a shit-transporting mission.
**[21:02] ---**
How rare
**[21:03] ---**
for you to look so
serious when you wanna talk to us...
**[21:08] ---**
There's too much I don't like about this.
**[21:10] ---**
About the enemies' methods and Natsuko...
**[21:15] ---**
You got a problem with Natsuko?!
**[21:17] ---**
It ain't like that.
Just, doesn't it seem weird?
**[21:20] ---**
What's weird?!
**[21:22] ---**
Just to steal some crap,
**[21:24] ---**
they had all that military
might ready to go...
**[21:28] ---**
I just can't figure out
what they were after.
**[21:30] ---**
Yeah, I've been
wonderin' about that myself.
**[21:34] ---**
But what's wrong with Natsuko?!
**[21:35] ---**
I realized it after today's battle.
She's an incredible commander.
**[21:39] ---**
They'd never stick her
with an assignment like this.
**[21:42] ---**
There's gotta be another side to it.
**[21:47] ---**
Right, Natsuko-chan?
**[21:51] ---**
N- Natsu-ne...
**[22:02] ---**
You gonna shut me up? Or maybe--
**[22:07] ---**
--you wanna continue
where we left off...?
**[23:57] ---**
Yo! Ghost of the Desert,
Sunabozu here! On the next episode...!
**[23:59] ---**
--Am I really reading this sub-title?!
--Just sock it to 'em!
**[24:03] ---**
No, I can't, Master!
**[24:05] ---**
You good-for-nothing...!
**[24:06] ---**
Next episode- "Feces and Urine"
**[24:08] ---**
You're so incredible, Natsuko-san!
**[24:09] ---**
--Miss it and I'll shoot you dead.
--Eh?!

"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[02:35] ---**
Hey, you!
**[02:37] ---**
Get back here!
**[02:44] ---**
"Feces and Urine"
**[02:53] ---**
Nice shot. I'd expect no less from
a specially-trained elite captain
**[02:58] ---**
Don't get the wrong idea.
What I want to know...
**[03:02] ---**
...is why you interrogated the
prisoners without permission.
**[03:06] ---**
I'm sorry, Master.
I told her about it...
**[03:11] ---**
But I never imagined that
YOU were behind such cruelty...!
**[03:15] ---**
The enemy's behavior
just doesn't sit right with me.
**[03:20] ---**
The prisoners said they were ordered
to take over the cargo and the car
**[03:25] ---**
but leave it undamaged...
**[03:27] ---**
A bit much just for some crap,
wouldn't you say?
**[03:31] ---**
There's gotta be some reason
why you hafta be all secretive...!
**[03:36] ---**
I told you everything I'm allowed to.
**[03:39] ---**
You all agreed to that
when you took the job.
**[03:45] ---**
I expected as much. You're so stubborn...
**[03:49] ---**
Where are you going?
**[03:50] ---**
Recon. Don't worry, I won't
run off before I get my money.
**[03:55] ---**
Let's go, Kosuna!
**[03:56] ---**
R-right...!
**[04:00] ---**
Natsuko.
**[04:03] ---**
It's not that we believe
what Kanta said, but...
**[04:06] ---**
But... if you're carrying a
heavy burden all alone, then...
**[04:11] ---**
We're not assuming we can
take over it for you, but...
**[04:16] ---**
How do I put this...
**[04:18] ---**
We want... to be useful to you.
**[04:21] ---**
Just keep that in mind...
**[04:28] ---**
Thanks...
**[04:36] ---**
Yes.
**[04:38] ---**
Every last person is in position.
**[04:40] ---**
Target shows no activity.
**[04:42] ---**
Good. We wait until just
before the vacuum car is repaired.
**[04:46] ---**
Keep watching it.
**[04:47] ---**
Roger.
**[04:51] ---**
What a relief...
**[04:57] ---**
Huh? Not everyone's in position...!
**[05:03] ---**
You're a tiny one...!
**[05:05] ---**
Moron...!
**[05:08] ---**
Damn it! It's you, Sunabozu...!
**[05:13] ---**
Cry all you want!
**[05:15] ---**
It's your fault for
lowering your guard, dumbass!
**[05:17] ---**
Using a prisoner's mask to sneak over...
You sure are smart, Master!
**[05:22] ---**
I forgot that you lack common sense...!
**[05:24] ---**
To think you would just come
waltzing in during all of this...!
**[05:28] ---**
Actually, I only came to
check out the situation here,
**[05:32] ---**
but then I found some idiot
sitting back and relaxing...!
**[05:36] ---**
W-what is that?!
**[05:38] ---**
Some drug I found in the vacuum car...
**[05:41] ---**
D-don't tell me that's...
**[05:43] ---**
...the stuff that makes you spill
your guts about everything?!
**[05:47] ---**
I hear the wrong dosage can make
bad stuff happen, but don't worry!
**[05:51] ---**
OK, I'll talk! Ask me anything...!
**[05:54] ---**
You sure are nice when you're docile...!
**[05:57] ---**
You go take care of the jammer!
**[05:59] ---**
Right...!
**[06:01] ---**
Now, then...
**[06:02] ---**
Say you're after the crap now
and I'll kill you.
**[06:06] ---**
What're you guys after?!
**[06:09] ---**
You ever heard of D-9...?
**[06:12] ---**
The ruins in the lawless region
on the boundary
**[06:15] ---**
between the West Oasis and South Oasis?
**[06:18] ---**
Apparently, there was a
new discovery there recently...
**[06:24] ---**
...but the excavation team
was slaughtered by bandits.
**[06:27] ---**
And they took the treasure too, huh?
**[06:30] ---**
The South Oasis army chased them,
**[06:33] ---**
but had to give up near
West Oasis Water Station ♪40...
**[06:38] ---**
Water Station ♪40?
**[06:42] ---**
That's the first place we
vacuumed after we got hired...!
**[06:45] ---**
It's only a rumor, but word has it
that what they discovered there
**[06:50] ---**
was a stockpile of
genocide weapons so powerful
**[06:54] ---**
they make current chemical and
biological weapons look like toys...
**[06:59] ---**
Weapons from the Dark Age...?!
**[07:16] ---**
It's only rumor, though.
**[07:18] ---**
Don't tell me you're back here
'cause you're scared of them...?
**[07:22] ---**
Maybe...
**[07:23] ---**
I-it does have some
ring of truth to it...
**[07:26] ---**
Last question... Who hired you?!
**[07:32] ---**
I bet I can guess.
**[07:34] ---**
The South Oasis found a bunch
of genocide weapons, if I recall.
**[07:39] ---**
But I guess the West Oasis found out
**[07:41] ---**
and sent fake bandits to butt in...
**[07:47] ---**
Amagumo-san! It's weird!
The jamming signal stopped!
**[07:51] ---**
The batteries should still work...
**[07:55] ---**
I- I'll check it out.
Continue your watch.
**[07:59] ---**
Understood.
**[08:00] ---**
Master! I did it!
I destroyed the transmitter!
**[08:05] ---**
AND I got the weapons they took...!
**[08:08] ---**
Oh!
**[08:13] ---**
This feel...! How I adore it so...!
**[08:22] ---**
Crap--
**[08:24] ---**
Damn you!
**[08:33] ---**
Dammit...! I was sure I did
a thorough body search...!
**[08:37] ---**
S-sorry...!
**[08:41] ---**
This ain't over yet...!
**[08:47] ---**
Damn! Blinders!
**[08:48] ---**
Are those S-2 Anti-Recons?!
**[08:52] ---**
We're being raided! Retaliate!
**[08:58] ---**
We're totally surrounded...!
**[09:00] ---**
What happened to Kanta?!
**[09:01] ---**
Don't be puttin' any
trust in that bastard...!
**[09:07] ---**
Do you read me?!
**[09:08] ---**
Kanta?! Where are you?!
**[09:10] ---**
Enemy headquarters.
**[09:12] ---**
Though it's quite empty now
that everyone's gone to see you...
**[09:16] ---**
We trashed the electronic jammer.
**[09:18] ---**
You should probably call for help now.
**[09:20] ---**
I don't remember taking orders from you!
**[09:23] ---**
OK. Have fun dying.
**[09:34] ---**
We don't need to go, Master...?
**[09:36] ---**
You saw how good they are.
There'd be no point in going now.
**[09:40] ---**
T-then...
**[09:44] ---**
Don't get the wrong idea.
**[09:47] ---**
I intend to finish this job to a T.
**[09:52] ---**
And I set something up
to ensure that happens...
**[09:56] ---**
I see...
**[10:19] ---**
Amagumo-san. We can't find it anywhere.
**[10:22] ---**
Are you sure it's not inside the tank?
**[10:25] ---**
I guess we can't be sure
until things calm down...
**[10:28] ---**
No matter. We did all
we were told to do.
**[10:32] ---**
Um...
**[10:34] ---**
Can't we do something about this?
We can't even move an inch...
**[10:38] ---**
Don't look at me.
**[10:40] ---**
The Sunabozu took off with our truck...
**[10:44] ---**
Taking this car is the only way.
**[10:46] ---**
That damn Kanta
chickened out halfway through...!
**[10:54] ---**
Holding us hostage won't have any effect!
**[10:57] ---**
We'll see about that...
**[10:59] ---**
Sand cloud on the horizon!
**[11:01] ---**
Multiple combat vehicles...
Probably the West Oasis Pursuit Unit!
**[11:06] ---**
So you did call for reinforcements...
**[11:09] ---**
Even so...
**[11:10] ---**
However powerful they may be,
they cannot attack head-on!
**[11:13] ---**
Just as we couldn't before...
**[11:17] ---**
We hold a stockpile of the deadliest,
most powerful genocide weapons.
**[11:21] ---**
Speeding along is their one choice only!
**[11:24] ---**
Only...! Only...!
**[11:26] ---**
--Only-
**[11:26] ---**
--Obstacle ahead!
**[11:28] ---**
It's the stolen truck!
**[11:30] ---**
What?!
**[11:35] ---**
Sunabozu...
**[11:38] ---**
Taking it back with
only one machine gun?
**[11:41] ---**
I didn't peg you as the kind to attack
when there's no hope of winning...
**[11:46] ---**
...but you know when
to come at a bad time!
**[11:51] ---**
Driver! Don't stop, no matter what!
**[11:55] ---**
Artillery! Clean up the trash ahead!
**[11:58] ---**
Roger!
**[12:09] ---**
What the...?
**[12:10] ---**
That's my machine gun...
**[12:12] ---**
What's going on?!
**[12:13] ---**
The Sunabozu is up ahead...!
**[12:15] ---**
What's he doing now...?
**[12:21] ---**
Master!
**[12:22] ---**
What?!
**[12:22] ---**
You're going to shoot the bomb
you planted down there?!
**[12:26] ---**
Sure am!
**[12:27] ---**
B-but what if the shock does something
to all those deadly weapons?!
**[12:33] ---**
Then friend and foe go bye-bye together!
**[12:36] ---**
But don't worry! I only planted
enough to blow the electrical wiring!
**[12:40] ---**
Just get shooting! If we
can stop its legs, we win!
**[12:46] ---**
Sunabozu... What are you up to?
**[12:51] ---**
Blast 'em to bits!
**[13:14] ---**
W-what the...?!
**[13:17] ---**
Yes! We did it! We did it, Master!
**[13:22] ---**
Huh...?
**[13:24] ---**
Master?
**[13:37] ---**
You fool! The most powerful
genocide weapons are on board...!
**[13:44] ---**
I screwed up the
amount of explosives...!
**[14:14] ---**
Ow...!
**[14:25] ---**
It's the same...
**[14:29] ---**
Those feelings... And my misery...
**[14:34] ---**
It's because I wasn't strong...
**[14:38] ---**
So I studied my absolute hardest...
**[14:42] ---**
I wanted to be strong...
**[14:44] ---**
I endured the discrimination...
**[14:46] ---**
And worked so hard while
giving up so much, and yet...!
**[14:58] ---**
Hurry up!
**[15:00] ---**
It's all slippery with shit...!
**[15:01] ---**
Bastards...!
**[15:06] ---**
Bro...!
**[15:07] ---**
Why won't you just die...?!
**[15:08] ---**
His side! He's hurt there!
**[15:11] ---**
Talk about careless!
**[15:13] ---**
Quit sittin' on your asses!
**[15:15] ---**
Say what?! Who needs YOUR help?!
**[15:19] ---**
Bastards!
**[15:20] ---**
You idiot!
**[15:21] ---**
Don't shoot!
The shit'll make 'em misfire!
**[15:26] ---**
I can't breathe...!
**[15:27] ---**
Oh no! Get your helmets off!
**[15:30] ---**
You'll suffocate if
the shit gets in your cooler!
**[15:45] ---**
Smells like crap...!
**[15:46] ---**
My nose...!
**[15:49] ---**
Our noses got screwed up long ago!
**[15:53] ---**
I guess the first ones
to get used to it win...!
**[15:57] ---**
Eat shit!
**[15:59] ---**
Shit...!
**[16:03] ---**
This isn't good...
**[16:06] ---**
But...
**[16:12] ---**
With the special unit girl...
**[16:14] ---**
I can shed light on the West Oasis' crime.
**[16:23] ---**
I refuse to lose! Bring it on!
**[16:24] ---**
Girl...!
**[16:35] ---**
Why, you...!
**[16:45] ---**
I just love women with spunk.
**[16:58] ---**
Brother...!
**[17:01] ---**
Natsuko- our sister-
isn't going anywhere!
**[17:10] ---**
H-here they come...!
**[17:13] ---**
It's the West Oasis Pursuit Unit...!
**[17:22] ---**
This isn't good...
**[17:31] ---**
He got away...!
**[17:33] ---**
B- Bro!
**[17:35] ---**
Bro! How bad is it?!
**[17:37] ---**
It's nothin' much...
**[17:39] ---**
I'm so sorry...
**[17:43] ---**
It's because... I was careless...
**[17:57] ---**
What was I so upset about...?
**[18:03] ---**
I hated Kanta...
**[18:05] ---**
I wanted to get strong...
**[18:07] ---**
I was scared of being
a burden on everyone...
**[18:11] ---**
I was scared of being left behind...
**[18:14] ---**
All I did was go around and
around in circles... I'm ridiculous...
**[18:33] ---**
Kanta!
**[18:34] ---**
Bastard hid until it was all over...!
**[18:37] ---**
Kanta! This is your fault...!
**[18:39] ---**
Yeah! You made Natsu-neechan cry...!
**[18:43] ---**
How's it my fault?!
**[18:45] ---**
You just had to do things your way...!
**[18:56] ---**
That felt good!
**[19:02] ---**
U-um...
**[19:04] ---**
He and Natsuko-san WEREN'T
good childhood friends...?
**[19:09] ---**
Hell no!
**[19:11] ---**
All he ever did was get us
involved in trouble...!
**[19:17] ---**
And to top it all off...!
**[19:19] ---**
Please! Stop asking them
to do bad things...!
**[19:22] ---**
It's 'cause they're always picking
fights with me that I take 'em on.
**[19:27] ---**
I don't really care since
it's just to pass the time,
**[19:31] ---**
but what'll you do to help make up
for all my extra time if I stop...?
**[19:40] ---**
Eh?!
**[19:41] ---**
She had to let him fondle her
breasts everyday to pass the time?!
**[19:46] ---**
Natsuko sacrificed herself for us...
**[19:49] ---**
I'm sure Natsuko-chan liked it too...!
**[19:52] ---**
And then he finally--
**[19:54] ---**
What did you do?!
**[19:56] ---**
Nothin'.
**[19:57] ---**
I tried to, but she ran off...!
**[20:01] ---**
Unbelievable...!
**[20:03] ---**
After we found out and kicked
his ass to get him to stop...
**[20:08] ---**
...he planted a bomb in our
outhouse to get back at us!
**[20:15] ---**
It was Natsuko who set it off...
**[20:18] ---**
After that, her personality
changed completely!
**[20:21] ---**
The once-gentle Natsuko
who loved her family and brothers
**[20:25] ---**
quit doing chores and clung to her desk
**[20:28] ---**
as she did nothing but study...!
**[20:32] ---**
It's because I'm a girl!
Because I'm weak!
**[20:35] ---**
It's because I'm ignorant
that I always get screwed over!
**[20:39] ---**
That's horrible...!
**[20:42] ---**
You don't have any proof it was me...!
**[20:45] ---**
That sweat is more proof than anything!
**[20:47] ---**
Everyone was mean
when they were a kid...!
**[20:54] ---**
Yes.
**[20:55] ---**
Kawaguchi here.
**[20:56] ---**
Operation complete.
The cargo is delivered.
**[20:59] ---**
Understood. We were ambushed,
but fought back and routed them.
**[21:04] ---**
There's no need to pursue.
**[21:06] ---**
So we've reached an agreement?
**[21:07] ---**
Return to headquarters.
Your mission is complete.
**[21:11] ---**
Understood.
**[21:13] ---**
So we were decoys, in other words?
**[21:17] ---**
You said you reached an agreement...
**[21:20] ---**
Meaning you struck
a deal with the enemy?!
**[21:22] ---**
Damn it! I risked my life
and got covered in shit--
**[21:26] ---**
It's hilarious.
**[21:27] ---**
I always get covered in crap
when you're involved.
**[21:31] ---**
You're something else.
**[21:32] ---**
But...
**[21:34] ---**
I don't know what you found out
when you left to do reconnaissance,
**[21:38] ---**
but don't stick your nose
into this any further.
**[21:43] ---**
Oh, and since you failed your job,
your payment will be cut in half.
**[21:51] ---**
Why, you little--
**[21:52] ---**
Assassination. We can assassinate.
**[21:56] ---**
And so the most powerful genocide
weapons the world has ever known
**[22:01] ---**
began being jointly developed in secret
by the West and South Oases.
**[22:07] ---**
Ten or so years later,
the Sunabozu would experience them
**[22:11] ---**
in an even ghastlier form.
**[22:17] ---**
Damned government...!
**[22:18] ---**
I refuse to remain
a pawn in your game...!
**[22:23] ---**
**[23:57] ---**
--Kosuna! You stink like crazy!
--You still reek of shit too!
**[24:00] ---**
Hey, don't give me
lines like that! Seriously!
**[24:02] ---**
Shit! Shit! Shit! Shit!
**[24:04] ---**
You know you do it too!
**[24:06] ---**
Next episode- "Junko and Pursuer"
**[24:08] ---**
Miss it and I'll sue you for
sexual harassment in the studio!

**[01:22] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[02:12] ---**
It's no use!
**[02:15] ---**
There is NO escape from me!
**[02:32] ---**
"Junko and Pursuer"
**[02:37] ---**
Well, we'll be off now...
**[02:40] ---**
Thanks for your help today.
**[02:43] ---**
You do good work,
Ghost of the Desert, Sunabozu.
**[02:46] ---**
Nah, I still got a long ways to go...
**[02:49] ---**
But to think you would
take on a pupil of your own...
**[02:53] ---**
Thanks for your help too, Taiko-chan.
**[02:56] ---**
No, I didn't really do much at all...
**[02:59] ---**
'Cause all you did was babysit Mitsuru...
**[03:07] ---**
Geez. I see you still hide behind
your old man like always...
**[03:13] ---**
Yay! Weakling! Weakling!
**[03:17] ---**
Weakling!
**[03:18] ---**
Hey, now, don't tease Mitsuru too much.
**[03:21] ---**
We wouldn't want it to happen out here.
**[03:25] ---**
Good point! Sorry!
**[03:28] ---**
Let's have dinner again sometime...
**[03:31] ---**
Yeah! Take care, Master!
**[03:39] ---**
What a surprise! You had a master, too!
**[03:43] ---**
Of course I did.
**[03:44] ---**
All newbies start out training
as someone's student.
**[03:48] ---**
But it's hard to believe that my
master's master is that kind of person...
**[03:52] ---**
He doesn't seem very strong...
**[03:55] ---**
Hmm, I guess...
**[03:57] ---**
But he's actually super awesome, right?
**[04:00] ---**
No, he's just like he looks.
**[04:03] ---**
Oh... I see.
**[04:07] ---**
Kan-chan!
**[04:09] ---**
These insanely giant breasts!
These unforgettable boobs!
**[04:13] ---**
It's Asagiri Junko!
**[04:16] ---**
Recognize my face, not my chest!
**[04:20] ---**
You're the one who showed it off...
**[04:24] ---**
I finally found you!
**[04:26] ---**
I went into town to find you,
but they said you were out on a job
**[04:30] ---**
so I chased after you, but I guess
I passed you on the way out!
**[04:34] ---**
What is that thing-
**[04:37] ---**
I don't think so!
**[04:38] ---**
You have some nerve to show
your face in front of me!
**[04:41] ---**
You sure know how to screw a guy over!
**[04:44] ---**
Oh? Whatever do you mean?
**[04:46] ---**
Don't give me that!
**[04:48] ---**
Was there some kind of debt
between you and me?
**[04:51] ---**
Why, you little!
**[04:53] ---**
Master! If you're referring to the
other day, you DID sign the contract.
**[04:57] ---**
Right after falling
into her womanly trap...
**[05:03] ---**
You're done with today's job, right?
**[05:05] ---**
I already spoke with the Mugenya!
**[05:08] ---**
Here, your new job!
**[05:10] ---**
What?!
**[05:13] ---**
It's a Mugenya form!
**[05:15] ---**
What the hell? "Help Asagiri Junko"?!
**[05:19] ---**
For two million yen?!
**[05:23] ---**
You can't object
to two million yen, right?
**[05:26] ---**
What the hell did you do?
**[05:28] ---**
What do you mean?!
**[05:29] ---**
It's pretty fishy,
getting two million just for helping you!
**[05:33] ---**
This sounds REALLY dangerous...
**[05:35] ---**
Forget it!
**[05:37] ---**
Even if it isn't dangerous,
I refuse to do anything for you!
**[05:51] ---**
If you don't help me,
I'll be forced into a marriage!
**[05:56] ---**
What?!
**[05:59] ---**
Did something just flash?
**[06:07] ---**
A sniper!
**[06:10] ---**
Master!
**[06:13] ---**
He's alive! It's just a concussion!
**[06:15] ---**
He's here!
**[06:17] ---**
We gotta run! Gimme a hand!
**[06:20] ---**
You're going to help me?!
**[06:22] ---**
This doesn't mean we're
doing it as a job, though!
**[06:24] ---**
I thought you hated me?!
**[06:27] ---**
I DESPISE you! But!
**[06:31] ---**
I can't carry him all by myself!
**[06:37] ---**
Master would probably kill me
if I did anything to you,
**[06:42] ---**
and besides, we need info from you
to do something about that sniper!
**[06:49] ---**
What a sassy runt!
**[06:51] ---**
Ow!
**[06:59] ---**
She just doesn't know
when to give up!
**[07:16] ---**
That sound!
**[07:19] ---**
Kan-chan!
**[07:22] ---**
Junko!
**[07:33] ---**
If you don't help me,
I'll be forced into a marriage!
**[07:40] ---**
Junko!
**[07:43] ---**
Junko!
**[07:56] ---**
Oh, you're awake! Are you OK?!
**[07:59] ---**
--Junko! Boobie Lady!
**[08:01] ---**
--S-stop, that tickles!
**[08:09] ---**
You up?
**[08:11] ---**
Yeah, I'm up...
**[08:16] ---**
Taiko. Situation.
**[08:18] ---**
It's been about an hour
since the initial attack.
**[08:21] ---**
We passed through a rock forest
and into an Exocet cave.
**[08:24] ---**
Looks like we were sniped
from pretty far off...
**[08:27] ---**
The sound came afterward. He's good.
**[08:31] ---**
The only damage was
your helmet and that lump.
**[08:37] ---**
Things would've been bad had the
bullet been three centimeters lower!
**[08:40] ---**
Incidentally, your recon
equipment is trashed.
**[08:44] ---**
Damn it!
**[08:46] ---**
So, what do we do?
**[08:48] ---**
Please! Help me!
**[08:50] ---**
I say we chuck this broad out!
**[08:53] ---**
I don't remember asking YOUR opinion!
**[08:55] ---**
We're out of ammo and food, you know!
**[08:58] ---**
Taiko. Sorry, but we're taking the job.
**[09:02] ---**
Eh?
**[09:03] ---**
--Eh?!
**[09:03] ---**
--Really?!
**[09:04] ---**
I can't accept that!
**[09:07] ---**
I know.
**[09:09] ---**
I'm incredibly sick of
Junko always using me, too.
**[09:15] ---**
But...
**[09:19] ---**
...I hate the idea of Junko
belonging to another man even more!
**[09:29] ---**
Oh, Kan-chan!
**[09:31] ---**
However!
**[09:33] ---**
W-what?
**[09:35] ---**
Only if you'll be my woman...
**[09:37] ---**
No!
**[09:40] ---**
Don't be stingy. You're supposed
to be the great Sunabozu.
**[09:44] ---**
If you really do want me,
then win me over with true skill!
**[09:49] ---**
Why, you!
**[09:50] ---**
And then I'll do so much
for you you'll hate it!
**[09:53] ---**
I'll do absolutely
anything that- you- say!
**[09:57] ---**
A-anything?!
**[09:59] ---**
All for free, of course!
**[10:01] ---**
Free, instead of 10,000 yen per feel?!
**[10:04] ---**
You'll never be able to win me over
if I wind up someone else's, right?
**[10:09] ---**
Now sign this!
**[10:11] ---**
Sure thing!
**[10:15] ---**
I figured it'd turn out like this...
**[10:34] ---**
It's one person 300 meters north!
**[10:36] ---**
300 meters?! He's already
that close?! Kosuna, did you-
**[10:40] ---**
I did it!
**[10:42] ---**
I'll have you know it was tough
to do while dragging your body!
**[10:47] ---**
He has an advanced desert suit!
**[10:48] ---**
Advanced?!
**[10:50] ---**
It has incredible scouting abilities!
**[10:52] ---**
Don't assume ordinary stuff
will work on it!
**[10:57] ---**
It's that good?!
**[10:59] ---**
It wiped out 13 fully-equipped
mercenaries in the blink of an eye!
**[11:04] ---**
Why couldn't you have mentioned
that BEFORE I signed?
**[11:08] ---**
Not like this is new, though...
**[11:17] ---**
He's shooting at us!
**[11:18] ---**
Damn! He can hit stuff that far
away in the desert at night?!
**[11:22] ---**
I told you! It's an advanced suit!
**[11:28] ---**
We're just sitting ducks at this rate!
**[11:30] ---**
Do you have any kind of plan?!
**[11:32] ---**
No ammo! Bad spot! For now, we just run!
**[11:35] ---**
Eh?!
**[11:37] ---**
Just get in a line!
**[11:38] ---**
R-right!
**[11:40] ---**
Hold it! Junko stays in back!
**[11:43] ---**
How come?!
**[11:49] ---**
Damn! I can't shoot
with Junko in the way!
**[11:53] ---**
Lucky bastards!
**[11:59] ---**
Damn you, Asagiri Junko!
Who are you trying to use this time?!
**[12:06] ---**
He fell for it. He's surprisingly dumb.
**[12:14] ---**
No good! He's still alive!
**[12:16] ---**
Dammit! I would've planted a
real bomb had I known this'd happen!
**[12:20] ---**
What's wrong with you?!
Of course a gas bomb wouldn't work!
**[12:23] ---**
A real bomb would've blown the helmet up!
**[12:27] ---**
You were planning to go back for it?
**[12:30] ---**
Shut up! Just run!
**[12:36] ---**
Asagiri...
**[12:39] ---**
...Junko!
**[12:59] ---**
Think we lost him?
**[13:01] ---**
Yeah, probably.
**[13:04] ---**
It'd be impossible to long-range snipe
here in this rock forest...
**[13:08] ---**
Now we can pull
ourselves together again...
**[13:11] ---**
I wouldn't be so sure.
**[13:12] ---**
Huh?
**[13:14] ---**
One week.
**[13:16] ---**
For one week I did everything
possible to get away from him!
**[13:20] ---**
But he always managed to corner you?
**[13:25] ---**
Think you can tell us everything?
**[13:28] ---**
You've heard of Uzumaki Chemicals, right?
**[13:30] ---**
The North Oasis desert suit company?
**[13:33] ---**
That suit was developed there.
**[13:36] ---**
After analyzing unearthed
Dark Age technology without permission.
**[13:40] ---**
Contraband, huh?!
**[13:42] ---**
No wonder it's such a pain in the ass...
**[13:44] ---**
The guy after me helped develop
that suit; his name's Tanigawa.
**[13:50] ---**
So, why is he after you?
**[13:53] ---**
I originally got close to him to
get at Uzumaki Chemicals' secrets...
**[14:00] ---**
"Club Basue"
**[14:02] ---**
Junko! Run off with me!
**[14:04] ---**
Eh?!
**[14:05] ---**
If we sell this Dark Age drive to a
rival company, we'll be filthy rich!
**[14:10] ---**
W-what are you saying?!
**[14:12] ---**
You know how I feel!
**[14:14] ---**
Let's live enjoyable, rich lives together!
**[14:17] ---**
Are you crazy?
**[14:19] ---**
Eh?!
**[14:22] ---**
It's contraband. It's not something
you can handle privately, you know?
**[14:26] ---**
B-but I!
**[14:28] ---**
Let me be frank!
**[14:31] ---**
The reason I got close to you
**[14:33] ---**
was because you worked for
a big technology company!
**[14:36] ---**
What worth does a butt-ugly man
who quit his company have?!
**[14:39] ---**
D-damn you!
**[14:47] ---**
Junko!
**[14:49] ---**
Don't toy with me! I swear
**[14:52] ---**
I WILL make you my woman!
**[14:58] ---**
You didn't need to be that harsh...
**[15:00] ---**
That'd make anyone mad...
**[15:02] ---**
But he just pissed me off!
**[15:09] ---**
Uzumaki Chemicals, Ltd.
Desert Suit, Fisheye Special!
**[15:16] ---**
Equipment size and power
consumption successfully reduced!
**[15:20] ---**
Also comes fully equipped
with embedded AC,
**[15:23] ---**
a large-screen display,
and enhanced recon equipment!
**[15:26] ---**
Its comfortable fit is impossible
to imagine from its sluggish exterior!
**[15:31] ---**
It can also remain in continued
operation twice the normal amount!
**[15:35] ---**
"Twice"
**[15:36] ---**
Twice! Twice!
**[15:39] ---**
...in a nutshell.
**[15:40] ---**
Wow!
**[15:41] ---**
Twice the operation
means twice the income!
**[15:46] ---**
Think you can handle him?
**[15:47] ---**
If I beat someone that awesome,
will you fall for me?!
**[15:51] ---**
I dunno... I can't say anything
for sure until you do beat him up...
**[15:55] ---**
This is seriously bad!
**[15:57] ---**
I'm the only one with recon equipment,
we have almost no ammo left,
**[16:01] ---**
and the temperature's
almost in the negatives
**[16:03] ---**
but I can't use my heater
now that I'm on my last battery!
**[16:08] ---**
I've already been
shivering for a while now!
**[16:10] ---**
My night suit is perfect at
retaining warmth, so I'm just fine!
**[16:16] ---**
The real problem is he'll still
catch us no matter how much we run...
**[16:40] ---**
Junko...
**[16:46] ---**
Drink up!
**[16:47] ---**
Thanks!
**[16:50] ---**
You're so smart, Tanigawa-san!
You're wonderful!
**[16:53] ---**
No, you're too kind!
**[16:56] ---**
"Client List- South Oasis
(20-40) FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY"
**[16:58] ---**
I'm sorry... If your company finds out,
**[17:01] ---**
you'll be in so much trouble!
**[17:03] ---**
It's all right! This is
no big deal at all!
**[17:11] ---**
What worth does a butt-ugly man
who quit his company have?
**[17:16] ---**
There!
**[17:25] ---**
What the?!
**[17:25] ---**
He's here!
**[17:26] ---**
Say what?!
**[17:27] ---**
Where's he shooting from?!
**[17:29] ---**
He's sniping between the rock pillars!
**[17:32] ---**
That's insane! No one
can shoot that good!
**[17:38] ---**
Damn, he's persistent!
**[17:40] ---**
Cover and darkness don't matter to him!
**[17:43] ---**
He systematically corners
his prey before finishing it off!
**[17:46] ---**
Kosuna! Blinders!
**[17:47] ---**
Right!
**[17:54] ---**
This should buy us a little time-
**[17:57] ---**
It's no use! I told you
ordinary tactics won't work!
**[18:01] ---**
Damn it!
**[18:04] ---**
Ugh! Watch your step,
you don't have your night scope!
**[18:09] ---**
Looks like this is the end!
**[18:11] ---**
Master?!
**[18:12] ---**
What're you saying?!
**[18:14] ---**
Ain't no way we can beat that monster!
**[18:17] ---**
You're pathetic!
What happened to winning me over?!
**[18:21] ---**
You're supposed to be the great Sunabozu!
Quit pissin' your pants!
**[18:25] ---**
What'd you say, you damn-
**[18:27] ---**
P-pissing?
**[18:30] ---**
You're a man!
**[18:32] ---**
That means you're supposed to save weak-
**[18:36] ---**
M- Master?
**[18:37] ---**
--Pissing! Pissing! Pissing!
**[18:38] ---**
--Kan-chan... Are you alright?
**[18:40] ---**
That's it! Why didn't I think of it?!
**[18:53] ---**
I finally caught you.
**[18:58] ---**
What happened to your help?
**[19:01] ---**
They're hiding. Your head's in both
of their crosshairs as we speak.
**[19:06] ---**
There's nobody within a 200 meter radius.
**[19:09] ---**
No one can snipe from over 200 meters
in a rock forest during the day,
**[19:12] ---**
much less at night.
**[19:15] ---**
There's no way to know unless you try.
**[19:21] ---**
Another blinder?! How pointless...
**[19:24] ---**
I dunno. I wouldn't say so.
**[19:27] ---**
What?!
**[19:45] ---**
Alright!
**[19:46] ---**
Impossible! There was
nothing on my radar!
**[19:49] ---**
Where was he hiding-
**[19:51] ---**
Ditch the suit. Any funny moves
and I'll kill you.
**[19:55] ---**
Mud?!
**[19:56] ---**
Now I see! You covered yourself
in cool mud to conceal your heat!
**[20:00] ---**
And that blinder warmed up the area
**[20:04] ---**
to make it even harder to see me...
**[20:07] ---**
Even the best equipment
works the same, right?
**[20:11] ---**
B-but where'd the mud come from?!
How'd you get mud in a desert?!
**[20:19] ---**
Hey!
**[20:20] ---**
You BETTER not look! Or listen!
**[20:23] ---**
So this is Junko's pee-pee!
**[20:26] ---**
--Pervert!
**[20:27] ---**
--Ooh!
**[20:27] ---**
I- I'm so jealous!
**[20:30] ---**
Hey, now!
**[20:31] ---**
Ugh! To think high-tech
would lose to pee!
**[20:38] ---**
It really is incredible...
**[20:40] ---**
Eh?
**[20:41] ---**
There's still so much out there
you'll never know unless you try...
**[20:46] ---**
This's what you get when you put
too much faith in machines, boyo!
**[20:50] ---**
Now do you get it?!
**[20:52] ---**
It looks like you
learned a lot this time,
**[20:55] ---**
but it just goes to show
how much of a spoiled novice you are!
**[21:02] ---**
C'mon, quit blubberin' and strip!
**[21:05] ---**
C-could you tell me one last thing?!
**[21:08] ---**
What?!
**[21:09] ---**
How did you know I would
come out here instead of sniping?
**[21:14] ---**
'Cause if I were you, I wouldn't
want some unknown man and Junko
**[21:17] ---**
to be together even for a minute...
**[21:22] ---**
So you saw through everything...
**[21:31] ---**
OK, that's enough! Now hand
the damn thing over!
**[21:38] ---**
C-crap!
**[21:48] ---**
G-get back here!
**[21:52] ---**
Damn!
**[21:54] ---**
I underestimated him!
**[21:58] ---**
Guess I'm not one to talk about Junko...
**[22:02] ---**
How uncool...
**[22:04] ---**
Master!
**[22:06] ---**
**[23:56] ---**
It's Boob Lady of the Desert,
Asagiri Junko!
**[23:58] ---**
Oh no! I've been kidnapped?
Someone save me.
**[24:01] ---**
--Shut up! Listen! You're-
--Hold on! That boob girl-
**[24:03] ---**
-- -belongs to me!
-- -belongs to me!
**[24:04] ---**
No! Please don't fight over me, you two!
**[24:06] ---**
...Men.
**[24:07] ---**
Next episode is
"Frustration and Despair"!
**[24:09] ---**
Miss it and you'll be called "Chi-chan"!

**[01:22] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[01:33] ---**
Say, Miss, did you catch
the episode the other day?
**[01:37] ---**
That giant-chested girl showed up
with another job for my master.
**[01:40] ---**
It was another one of those stupid,
"Oh, protect me!" jobs.
**[01:44] ---**
I naturally said no,
but my master's so dumb...
**[01:47] ---**
So now the Sunabo group
is in a real pickle!
**[01:51] ---**
"Frustration and Despair"
**[01:53] ---**
Be sure to watch it, Miss!
**[02:11] ---**
J- Junko?!
**[02:16] ---**
H-hey! Wait!
**[02:21] ---**
Everyone! Dinner's ready!
**[02:26] ---**
--We humbly accept this!
**[02:26] ---**
--We humbly accept this!
**[02:29] ---**
Eh?! Another one?!
**[02:31] ---**
Yes, our sixth!
**[02:32] ---**
You'll just have to work even harder, Dad!
**[02:35] ---**
You got me there!
**[02:40] ---**
I- I'm too late!
**[02:59] ---**
Just a dream... A horrible dream...
**[03:04] ---**
Oh no! Junko!
**[03:06] ---**
The moon's already that high?! Shit!
**[03:14] ---**
I hurt all over from sleeping so weird...
**[03:17] ---**
Taiko! You-
**[03:20] ---**
Master. You're awake.
**[03:22] ---**
Hey, now!
**[03:23] ---**
What is a teenage girl thinking,
crawling into a man's sleeping bag?!
**[03:28] ---**
Though I CAN understand how
you fell for my incredible charm!
**[03:32] ---**
What're you talking about?!
**[03:34] ---**
I was helping you warm up after
you fainted and nearly froze to death!
**[03:42] ---**
Eww! He smells like pee!
**[03:48] ---**
It would've been easy
enough to use my AC,
**[03:52] ---**
but I can't use my recon equipment
if my battery runs out!
**[03:56] ---**
Which is why I reluctantly kept you warm!
**[04:11] ---**
I assume you're going to
chase him to get the girl back?
**[04:14] ---**
You know me!
**[04:23] ---**
Hurry! This is a
matter of utmost urgency!
**[04:26] ---**
Hurry? It's already
been two hours since then.
**[04:31] ---**
I bet they're already-
**[04:32] ---**
D-d-don't be stupid!
**[04:34] ---**
Junko would never let that
jack-off just do her!
**[04:37] ---**
That's true!
**[04:39] ---**
You couldn't do her and you
had 9 or 10 days to try!
**[04:46] ---**
Please don't remind me.
**[04:49] ---**
B-but if he ties her up or drugs her,
**[04:52] ---**
--Master. Master!
**[04:52] ---**
--she wouldn't-
**[04:54] ---**
What?! You're annoying!
**[05:20] ---**
T-t-three of those new suits!
**[05:23] ---**
Crap! Those're Uzumaki pursuers!
**[05:26] ---**
Do you suppose they overlooked us?
**[05:28] ---**
Well, they ARE wearing
prohibited stuff too...
**[05:31] ---**
They probably can't afford
to cause a big hubbub...
**[05:34] ---**
But if we're up against
four of those Specials...
**[05:39] ---**
What do we do? We have
practically no ammunition left!
**[05:44] ---**
No choice. An enemy's an enemy.
**[05:49] ---**
Kosuna!
**[05:51] ---**
What's our exact location?
Wasn't there an old mine nearby?
**[05:55] ---**
Let's see... It's one hour west of here.
**[05:59] ---**
Great! We're takin' a side trip!
**[06:16] ---**
Don't tell me you're trying to do
something about the transmitter?
**[06:20] ---**
You could tell?
**[06:22] ---**
Yeah...
**[06:23] ---**
Is it OK to take it apart here?
Isn't it a sensitive device?
**[06:27] ---**
It's sink or swim.
As long as I have this, I-
**[06:32] ---**
I think it's too late now, though...
**[06:36] ---**
I guess I got carried away...
**[06:38] ---**
Everything before went so well,
even though it wasn't me doing it...
**[06:44] ---**
The Sunabozu, was it?
**[06:47] ---**
I've never seen anyone
with such eyes before!
**[06:51] ---**
But I sure was scared
against your first helper!
**[06:54] ---**
I was truly terrified...
**[06:56] ---**
I somehow managed thanks to the Special,
**[06:59] ---**
but the second guy was
probably pretty well-known.
**[07:02] ---**
The third was an eastern bounty hunter,
and the fourth, an outlaw...
**[07:07] ---**
Every last one was useless.
**[07:13] ---**
How many died, do you think?
**[07:21] ---**
W-what the?!
**[07:22] ---**
It's the Sunabozu!
**[07:24] ---**
What?!
**[07:25] ---**
He's finally here!
**[07:27] ---**
Help! Kan-chan! He's in
his underwear right now!
**[07:31] ---**
Hey! Tanigawa!
**[07:42] ---**
So you ARE here!
**[07:45] ---**
Did you make up with your girl?!
**[07:47] ---**
The chairman's fumin' mad!
**[07:56] ---**
Check this out, man!
**[07:57] ---**
What?! What's going on?! Who are they?!
**[08:01] ---**
P-p-pursuers from the company!
**[08:06] ---**
Eh?
**[08:09] ---**
The three D, E, and F-Type Specials!
**[08:13] ---**
And these voices belong to the
mercenaries who tested the Specials!
**[08:18] ---**
Hey, Seiji!
**[08:20] ---**
You got 10 minutes! Come out quietly
and we'll spare your life!
**[08:25] ---**
You know what happens after 10 minutes!
**[08:27] ---**
We blow you into tiny pieces!
**[08:29] ---**
You're gonna surrender, right?!
I don't wanna die here!
**[08:35] ---**
Sorry! I surrender-
**[08:41] ---**
Even if we do surrender,
they won't let us live!
**[08:43] ---**
The fate of the company is at stake!
**[08:56] ---**
I'll draw them out.
You use that chance to run!
**[09:00] ---**
Seiji! You'd-
**[09:02] ---**
Don't get the wrong idea!
I'm not dying for you!
**[09:06] ---**
There's still so much I want to do!
I WILL survive!
**[09:18] ---**
Well, it's been 10 minutes.
**[09:20] ---**
Dumb bastard...
**[09:22] ---**
Let's do it!
**[09:38] ---**
There you are, C-Type!
**[09:43] ---**
He can hit from that distance?!
**[09:44] ---**
If you input the gun's abilities,
**[09:47] ---**
it'll automatically aim for you
depending on the target's distance!
**[09:50] ---**
That's a Special for ya!
**[09:52] ---**
Turns a spoiled amateur
into a professional killer!
**[09:57] ---**
There he goes!
**[09:58] ---**
What the hell?! He's just
gonna ditch the girl?!
**[10:01] ---**
Hell if I know!
**[10:02] ---**
Don't kill her! I got a
ton of stuff to ask her!
**[10:05] ---**
Asshole! I'll stop you!
**[10:09] ---**
Drive him into the valley!
**[10:10] ---**
I'll take the right!
**[10:11] ---**
Akaike! Kill the girl!
He's trying to let her escape!
**[10:14] ---**
I know!
**[10:16] ---**
Watch yourself! She's one hell of a fox!
**[10:20] ---**
Leave her to me!
**[10:39] ---**
Yo.
**[10:40] ---**
You got some nerve, Engineer.
**[10:43] ---**
Is she that hot of a chick?
**[10:45] ---**
Y-yeah...
**[10:48] ---**
I love 'em like that!
**[11:03] ---**
I've been spotted!
**[11:07] ---**
From his head?!
**[11:10] ---**
What?!
**[11:13] ---**
Bastard had help!
**[11:14] ---**
Damn! Fall back for now!
**[11:16] ---**
Huh?! They're fleeing!
**[11:18] ---**
Those're some real pros. They retreated
without any hesitation at all.
**[11:23] ---**
When the situation gets out of hand,
the best thing to do is run away.
**[11:27] ---**
Catch.
**[11:29] ---**
Wouldn't you prefer that?
**[11:32] ---**
Think I'll borrow me this one.
**[11:37] ---**
What is he doing?
**[11:40] ---**
This thing is loaded...
**[11:50] ---**
They're after you and Junko.
**[11:53] ---**
I'm only after Junko.
**[11:56] ---**
In other words, the three of them
are our common enemies.
**[12:00] ---**
We can always settle our score
after we've taken care of them, right?
**[12:16] ---**
Why do I have to put up with this crap?!
**[12:20] ---**
Nice ass, fox!
**[12:29] ---**
Ugh!
**[12:31] ---**
What the?
**[12:35] ---**
It's the Sunabozu's signal!
**[12:42] ---**
How far am I supposed to run?!
**[12:45] ---**
Left?!
**[12:48] ---**
What the?! It's a dead end!
**[12:51] ---**
Checkmate, Missy.
**[12:55] ---**
What a hottie you are!
**[12:57] ---**
Don't kill me! I'll do anything you say!
**[13:00] ---**
Anything?
**[13:01] ---**
Yes! Anything at all!
**[13:03] ---**
A blow job, a hand job,
or even feet stuff if you want!
**[13:08] ---**
Even anal?
**[13:21] ---**
O-of course.
**[13:23] ---**
Sounds good!
**[13:24] ---**
So spare me! OK?!
**[13:27] ---**
OK?!
**[13:29] ---**
But I'm not good with live women.
**[13:37] ---**
He dodged it?!
**[13:41] ---**
Who the hell are you?!
**[13:44] ---**
Come on! Get out here!
**[13:46] ---**
I- I'm dead! Damn it!
**[13:49] ---**
Come on, come on, come on!
**[13:59] ---**
Don't get carried away, moron!
**[14:01] ---**
Master!
**[14:03] ---**
The Special got away...
**[14:05] ---**
Damn! They really are
flawless bastards!
**[14:08] ---**
He has eyes on his back!
**[14:11] ---**
After I got that dumb broad to
lure him into a dead end, too!
**[14:14] ---**
Who's a dumb broad?!
**[14:16] ---**
Oh, you're alive.
**[14:17] ---**
Will you cut the crap?!
**[14:19] ---**
You'll use me as bullet protection
and bait for that moron Seiji-
**[14:24] ---**
S- Seiji?!
**[14:25] ---**
Yeah, we're a team until we
take care of those Uzumaki thugs.
**[14:30] ---**
I couldn't play around anymore...
**[14:36] ---**
What the hell's going on?!
**[14:38] ---**
Well, only two hours 'till sunup.
**[14:42] ---**
Just one last push.
**[14:43] ---**
Do you have a plan or something?
**[14:45] ---**
You know I'm not the kind to take
action if there's no way to win...
**[14:50] ---**
But how can we win in this situation?!
**[14:53] ---**
It's almost dawn.
**[14:56] ---**
What're you talking about?
**[15:14] ---**
Two unknown accomplices.
And we fell right into their ambush...
**[15:19] ---**
Can't show mercy anymore.
**[15:21] ---**
We'll show that Seiji bastard
**[15:24] ---**
just how strong his Specials really are!
**[15:50] ---**
Seiji. You out-and-out engineer.
**[15:53] ---**
You shoulda just jacked off
at your desk like a good boy!
**[16:24] ---**
Damn! They're gettin'
way too trigger-happy!
**[16:26] ---**
How can we possibly win this?!
**[16:29] ---**
We're done for!
**[16:30] ---**
Five...
**[16:31] ---**
Four...
**[16:33] ---**
Three...
**[16:34] ---**
Two...
**[16:36] ---**
One...
**[16:37] ---**
Master! It's here!
**[16:42] ---**
We made it!
**[16:43] ---**
Here it comes!
**[16:52] ---**
Yes!
**[17:02] ---**
Those tanks!
**[17:16] ---**
It's the government army!
**[17:18] ---**
That's right!
**[17:23] ---**
I told you we'd settle the score
after we took care of them.
**[17:27] ---**
As you can see,
they're pretty much done for.
**[17:31] ---**
Damn! Where'd THEY come from?!
**[17:35] ---**
Give yourselves up.
You are completely surrounded.
**[17:41] ---**
Give yourselves up. You are completely-
**[17:44] ---**
Government army, my ass!
**[17:49] ---**
Don't tell me YOU called them here?!
**[17:51] ---**
There's an old mine nearby that
used to be under government control.
**[17:56] ---**
Hidden inside is a top-secret
direct hotline to the government.
**[18:01] ---**
Hotline?!
**[18:02] ---**
Yep, a line only nice people helpful
to the government know about.
**[18:09] ---**
You squealed?! Are you a government dog?!
**[18:11] ---**
Government dog?
**[18:14] ---**
Sure, whatever. I don't care
what you call me!
**[18:19] ---**
Just think about it.
We're enemies of a huge company now!
**[18:23] ---**
Even after this, they're just
gonna send more and more after us.
**[18:27] ---**
In which case...
**[18:29] ---**
...the only choice is
to crush the whole company.
**[18:34] ---**
C-crush the company?!
**[18:40] ---**
Defeat the enemy! No matter the cost,
and as completely as possible!
**[19:06] ---**
T-the company!
**[19:08] ---**
Thanks to your uproar,
**[19:12] ---**
we're now aware of Uzumaki's wronging.
**[19:15] ---**
I doubt the northern
government doesn't know.
**[19:19] ---**
The company executives will most
likely be put to death for treason,
**[19:24] ---**
and the nearly 1000 employees
and their families cast into the desert.
**[19:31] ---**
A-all because of me...
**[19:44] ---**
No! The company is to blame!
**[19:47] ---**
It's because the company
tried to get rid of me!
**[19:51] ---**
Dumb man. He rushed
ahead without thinking...
**[19:55] ---**
This is why I hate na ve nerds!
**[19:58] ---**
You know it's all your fault!
**[19:59] ---**
Asagiri Junko.
**[20:02] ---**
We'd like to ask you some things as well.
**[20:04] ---**
Could you accompany us?
**[20:06] ---**
Eh?
**[20:07] ---**
I hear you're doing some
interesting things up north.
**[20:11] ---**
No, I'm not going to arrest you.
I was hoping you might assist us...
**[20:14] ---**
N-n-not so fast!
**[20:17] ---**
Kan-chan!
**[20:18] ---**
Yes?
**[20:18] ---**
I still haven't gotten
paid for this woman yet!
**[20:22] ---**
If you take off with her, I can't-
**[20:26] ---**
See?! It's an official
government contract-
**[20:36] ---**
W-what the hell-
**[20:39] ---**
Master!
**[20:41] ---**
Quit it-
**[20:43] ---**
Nothing ever happened here,
nor have you seen anything.
**[20:48] ---**
Got that?
**[20:50] ---**
Kan-chan!
**[20:52] ---**
Let go of me!
What're you doing to my master?!
**[20:56] ---**
Master!
**[20:57] ---**
Master!
**[20:58] ---**
Master!
**[21:01] ---**
Please say something! Are you
all right?! This is horrible!
**[21:07] ---**
Master!
**[21:26] ---**
They hauled everyone off...
**[21:29] ---**
What was the point of
all our hard work today?
**[21:35] ---**
Still, that evil-breasted lady
got what she deserved!
**[21:39] ---**
She deserves to suffer once in a while!
**[21:41] ---**
Let's go.
**[21:52] ---**
Master didn't say a single word
**[21:54] ---**
--on the way home.
**[21:54] ---**
--Master! Wait for me!
**[21:56] ---**
I couldn't help but sense
something very ominous
**[22:00] ---**
in the unusual ambience...
**[22:04] ---**
But to think the contract
would be torn up...
**[23:56] ---**
Yo. Ghost of the Desert, Sunabozu here.
**[23:57] ---**
What's wrong?
**[23:58] ---**
Please cheer up!
**[24:00] ---**
Look, if I squeeze my arms together,
I can sort of make cleavage!
**[24:03] ---**
--Next episode is "Above and Below".
--Uh... Umm...
**[24:05] ---**
I- I know! Miss it, and it's Maiching!
**[24:07] ---**
--I'm outta here.
--M- Master! Master!

**[01:22] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[01:44] ---**
Goodbye.
**[01:47] ---**
Looks like we might never meet again.
**[01:50] ---**
Junko!
**[01:56] ---**
I did manage to survive, thanks to you.
**[02:00] ---**
But I wound up arrested by
the Oasis government instead...
**[02:05] ---**
I'm not blaming you, though.
**[02:08] ---**
I know very well you did
everything you possibly could!
**[02:12] ---**
This is just your limit.
**[02:16] ---**
Oh, yes.
**[02:17] ---**
I said to win me over if
you really wanted me...
**[02:23] ---**
But I'd never fall for the likes of you.
**[02:28] ---**
The likes of you... Never...
**[02:33] ---**
Goodbye!
**[02:34] ---**
No!
**[02:36] ---**
"Above and Below"
**[02:52] ---**
Master!
**[02:54] ---**
Will you pull yourself together already?!
**[02:57] ---**
It's already been a week!
**[02:59] ---**
That woman's a goner, I tell you!
**[03:03] ---**
She got hauled off by a
heartless intelligence agency!
**[03:06] ---**
She's probably died a heroic death
after being horribly tortured!
**[03:15] ---**
Uhh, Master?
**[03:17] ---**
You've been jittery day and night...
**[03:20] ---**
We got nothin', yet you're wasting
batteries burrowing everywhere!
**[03:24] ---**
B-but there's no telling when the
authorities will come to arrest us...
**[03:29] ---**
If that woman rats us out!
**[03:35] ---**
Moron.
**[03:37] ---**
If they felt so inclined,
**[03:39] ---**
we could flail all we want
and still not survive.
**[03:42] ---**
They tear up contracts, you know.
**[03:45] ---**
West Oasis government contracts
are absolute in this region.
**[03:50] ---**
Which is why we can even
put our lives on the line.
**[03:54] ---**
And yet... he just tore it up like
that to suit the government's needs!
**[04:01] ---**
We're just insignificant nothings...
**[04:04] ---**
We eat and shit in the palm
of the government's hand...
**[04:07] ---**
The government does operate
those food transport and vacuum cars...
**[04:14] ---**
Whatever the case, there's no point
in kicking and screaming now.
**[04:18] ---**
Well, we will kick and scream plenty
when the time comes, though!
**[04:30] ---**
Chinoike Archaeology Team?
**[04:33] ---**
I'm the captain, Chinoike.
**[04:35] ---**
Is our job to excavate the ruins?
**[04:38] ---**
No, actually...
**[04:41] ---**
...it's to find someone.
**[04:43] ---**
What're you excavating for?
These ruins've been dug completely dry...
**[04:47] ---**
The treasure may be gone, but there's
still academic value to be had...
**[04:51] ---**
So, who're we lookin' for?
**[04:55] ---**
Think you can start talking to us?
**[04:58] ---**
Well... It's a soldier.
**[05:02] ---**
Soldier?
**[05:03] ---**
For the West Oasis government?
**[05:05] ---**
Yes.
**[05:06] ---**
Excavating has its dangers,
**[05:09] ---**
so I needed someone to protect the team...
**[05:12] ---**
Some weird guys suddenly attacked,
and many of my men were killed!
**[05:18] ---**
And that soldier-
**[05:19] ---**
Get down!
**[05:28] ---**
You?!
**[05:29] ---**
K- Kanta?!
**[05:32] ---**
Oh?
**[05:33] ---**
It's Kanta?!
**[05:36] ---**
I'm on a job.
**[05:39] ---**
What the hell are you doing here?
**[05:45] ---**
Q-quit crying! Hey!
**[05:48] ---**
Natsuko... is missing...
**[05:55] ---**
She was on a secret mission,
**[05:57] ---**
so she's not "officially" missing!
**[06:01] ---**
So they haven't even started
to search for her yet!
**[06:06] ---**
It'd seem your guys' goal is
the same as this here fellow's.
**[06:12] ---**
These guys are brothers of the
General Kawaguchi you're lookin' for.
**[06:17] ---**
Eh?
**[06:17] ---**
--Huh?
**[06:17] ---**
--Huh?
**[06:21] ---**
--Eh?!
**[06:21] ---**
--Eh?!
**[06:24] ---**
Well, then...
**[06:25] ---**
If we're after the same thing,
then it's simple.
**[06:29] ---**
Let's work together to find Natsuko.
**[06:31] ---**
--You'll help?!
**[06:31] ---**
--My bones!
**[06:34] ---**
Say, were you looking around this town?
**[06:37] ---**
Yeah.
**[06:38] ---**
Must've been one lousy tipster!
**[06:40] ---**
What?! What do you mean?!
**[06:43] ---**
What do you mean, lousy?!
**[06:45] ---**
No... You don't understand...
**[06:47] ---**
General Kawaguchi was
attacked down below!
**[06:51] ---**
--Below?!
**[06:51] ---**
--Below?!
**[07:03] ---**
I never would've guessed!
**[07:05] ---**
No wonder we couldn't find her!
**[07:07] ---**
Listen.
**[07:09] ---**
The existence of this entrance is
top-secret even within the government.
**[07:13] ---**
Should you ever leak
its location, you'll-
**[07:14] ---**
Shut up!
**[07:15] ---**
Quit with the advertisement
and just lead the way!
**[07:18] ---**
How horrible!
**[07:20] ---**
OK! Let's go!
**[07:22] ---**
Master!
**[07:27] ---**
We're coming, Natsuko!
**[07:29] ---**
Hang in there!
**[07:40] ---**
Sawada-san. The heat sources
have disappeared.
**[07:43] ---**
Pursuit is not possible.
**[07:45] ---**
As if humans can just disappear!
**[07:48] ---**
You good-for-nothing puppets!
Listen and learn!
**[07:51] ---**
People don't suddenly disappear!
**[07:54] ---**
They either have
heat-concealing equipment
**[07:55] ---**
or they've gone somewhere
our sensors can't penetrate!
**[07:58] ---**
Understood.
**[07:59] ---**
It has been noted.
**[08:04] ---**
Let's go after 'em.
**[08:09] ---**
What is this huge space?!
**[08:11] ---**
I never imagined this
was beneath the ruins!
**[08:15] ---**
Incredible, isn't it? Not even the
government's top men know about it.
**[08:19] ---**
It's our little secret.
**[08:23] ---**
It's a legendary Dark Age city,
3000 meters underground.
**[08:27] ---**
Legendary, indeed...
**[08:29] ---**
But it sure is incredible...
**[08:31] ---**
There's metal and plastic everywhere!
**[08:34] ---**
Even stuff I've never seen before.
**[08:42] ---**
I could live the big-life 10 times over
just off of the stuff I see here!
**[08:47] ---**
This is nothing at all!
**[08:50] ---**
All the other ruins out there've
been dug dry, but not these!
**[08:54] ---**
Yeah! The guys in town'd be
so happy if they knew!
**[08:58] ---**
Master! Look at this.
**[09:02] ---**
What, now?
**[09:04] ---**
--What is it?
- -This...
**[09:07] ---**
"December 15, 3026- Matsushita Ken'ichi"
**[09:08] ---**
"December 15, 3026- Matsushita Ken'ichi"
December 15, 3026?
**[09:11] ---**
"December 15, 3026- Matsushita Ken'ichi"
It's a message.
**[09:13] ---**
It's a message.
**[09:13] ---**
Meant to tell surviving friends
and family that one was still all right.
**[09:18] ---**
They're all over the place.
**[09:20] ---**
Mothers looking for their children...
**[09:23] ---**
Prayers for the safety of loved ones...
**[09:27] ---**
Looks like it's been
carved over scorch marks...
**[09:31] ---**
The ceiling also has scorch marks.
**[09:34] ---**
It seems the entire tunnel
was enveloped in flames.
**[09:39] ---**
W-what do you think happened?!
**[09:41] ---**
Who knows. Buncha people
probably died, though...
**[09:45] ---**
Books say the Dark Age had
a super-advanced civilization
**[09:48] ---**
that even went to
the world of the stars...
**[09:52] ---**
For it to fall,
something really big must've happened...
**[09:58] ---**
Do you suppose
Matsushita-san found his companion?
**[10:01] ---**
Who knows. It was hundreds of years ago.
**[10:08] ---**
W-Wait for me!
**[10:10] ---**
"South Entrance"
**[10:16] ---**
I know this! I saw it in a book!
**[10:19] ---**
Let me think!
**[10:22] ---**
A "train"!
**[10:28] ---**
It's so awesome!
**[10:30] ---**
Sweet!
**[10:31] ---**
So cool!
**[10:37] ---**
Hey, does this thing mean
**[10:40] ---**
the underground city was insanely huge?!
**[10:44] ---**
I've studied the underground city
for many years now...
**[10:49] ---**
Apparently, it stretched
across the entire Kanto Plain
**[10:52] ---**
around the end of the Dark Age.
**[10:55] ---**
Meaning it goes all beneath
the Great Kanto Desert?!
**[10:58] ---**
Yes. Most of it caved in, though.
**[11:02] ---**
It seems this was the only place
to flee to when the Dark Age ended.
**[11:08] ---**
What a drag.
**[11:11] ---**
Looks like they dug their own
giant grave for themselves.
**[11:17] ---**
So, what's the deal with Natsuko?
**[11:21] ---**
Come with me!
**[12:05] ---**
Sunabozu-san...
**[12:07] ---**
Have you ever been to the Oasis?
**[12:10] ---**
Yeah, my old man took me
there once when I was a kid.
**[12:14] ---**
Only saw the entrance, though...
**[12:32] ---**
I remember it clearly...
**[12:34] ---**
That gigantic, intimidating entrance...
**[12:39] ---**
It was so big, I about lost my lunch...
**[12:43] ---**
I recall the whole area
being packed with people
**[12:45] ---**
hoping to get scraps
from the government...
**[12:49] ---**
So it's a town full of purveying
salesmen and branch offices?
**[12:55] ---**
It's a central water station
and grimy town for government flunkies.
**[13:00] ---**
I happen to live in that town...
**[13:04] ---**
That so?
**[13:06] ---**
Never mind.
**[13:08] ---**
But do you know
what it's like on the inside?
**[13:11] ---**
Well, from what I've heard,
**[13:14] ---**
it's a really huge underground city that-
**[13:16] ---**
Underground city?!
**[13:18] ---**
An amazing underground city.
Too big even for the government.
**[13:23] ---**
But it comes as no surprise;
**[13:25] ---**
the government is housed inside
ultra-enormous underground ruins...
**[13:29] ---**
A giant structure
extending 3000 meters down.
**[13:32] ---**
The government doesn't
use even half of it.
**[13:35] ---**
There are still many unknown parts to it.
**[13:38] ---**
Incredible, isn't it?
**[13:39] ---**
No...
**[13:41] ---**
I just get a really bad
feeling about this all...
**[13:46] ---**
It happened some 10 years ago...
**[13:49] ---**
A survey engineer went missing
in the deepest part of the West Oasis.
**[13:54] ---**
It's a veritable maze down there;
**[13:57] ---**
once you've wandered in,
there's little hope of survival.
**[14:01] ---**
However, the engineer was
discovered one week later...
**[14:06] ---**
In a completely different location,
**[14:09] ---**
50 kilometers from the West Oasis.
**[14:13] ---**
In short, he wound up in
the ruins we're in now?!
**[14:18] ---**
Impressive, Sunabozu-san!
Being so quick saves me trouble!
**[14:23] ---**
Basically, it's the back door
to the West Oasis?!
**[14:28] ---**
10 years ago, I came to explore the ruins
**[14:32] ---**
and learned of it from his final words...
**[14:36] ---**
Learned of this underground city...
**[14:40] ---**
The man died?
**[14:44] ---**
Yes...
**[14:45] ---**
After being subjected to a week of
terror and despair in total darkness...
**[14:51] ---**
We gave him a nice burial with miners
who had died in an accident.
**[15:00] ---**
I see. So you didn't
hand him over to his family...
**[15:06] ---**
Nope.
**[15:08] ---**
If word about him got out, so would
word about this huge discovery.
**[15:18] ---**
Shit!
**[15:19] ---**
What the hell?! This is way too much!
**[15:23] ---**
How can you just do this to people?!
**[15:26] ---**
Whoa, what're you talking about, Kanta?!
**[15:28] ---**
Don't you get it yet?!
**[15:30] ---**
We're prowling around
a back door to the Oasis
**[15:31] ---**
that the government doesn't know about!
**[15:34] ---**
This is big-time terrorism!
**[15:38] ---**
We've been caught in
an anti-government movement!
**[15:46] ---**
I do live in the center
and work for the government,
**[15:50] ---**
but I'm from the desert too, you know.
**[15:54] ---**
Anti-government movement?!
That makes you Natsuko's enemy!
**[15:58] ---**
Is it 'cause of your friends
that Natsuko's unit is missing?!
**[16:02] ---**
N-no-
**[16:05] ---**
Ow...
**[16:06] ---**
M-my gun!
**[16:08] ---**
W-what are you-
**[16:11] ---**
S-stop!
**[16:20] ---**
Alright! Get the hell out here!
**[16:26] ---**
How did he know we were here?! We're...
**[16:31] ---**
Ascertainment.
**[16:32] ---**
Condition... Minor damage.
**[16:35] ---**
We have not been instructed how
to react to a preemptive attack.
**[16:38] ---**
Please issue your command.
**[16:40] ---**
Damn it!
**[16:41] ---**
Do I have to tell you everything?!
**[16:43] ---**
Wait, I do.
**[16:47] ---**
Your pursuit has failed,
so take drastic measures!
**[16:50] ---**
Capture the appropriate guy
and force 'im to talk!
**[16:53] ---**
I don't think so.
**[16:57] ---**
W-when did they-
**[17:01] ---**
Can't have you leaving
with info on this place...
**[17:05] ---**
Fire.
**[17:10] ---**
What?!
**[17:16] ---**
Huh?! Looks like something
unexpected's just started...
**[17:21] ---**
What's goin' on?!
**[17:28] ---**
You've been followed, brothers.
**[17:39] ---**
--Natsuko!
**[17:39] ---**
--Natsu-ne!
**[17:44] ---**
That's... right...
**[17:47] ---**
Natsuko! We heard you
were attacked, so we-
**[17:50] ---**
You're not hurt?!
**[17:52] ---**
Of course not.
**[17:54] ---**
This was all made up.
**[17:58] ---**
I finally get it!
**[18:00] ---**
It looked like you were playing
a damned-serious government dog,
**[18:03] ---**
but you're actually an anti-government
factionist like him, Natsuko!
**[18:11] ---**
Let's just say I'm from the desert, too.
**[18:14] ---**
Listen!
**[18:15] ---**
I don't care if you wipe out all
the soldiers! This is your debut!
**[18:20] ---**
Try out the combat techniques taught
to you to your hearts' content!
**[18:24] ---**
Understood.
**[18:27] ---**
What?!
**[18:30] ---**
But capture the commander alive!
**[18:37] ---**
I want to learn the details!
**[18:41] ---**
What the hell is he?!
**[18:43] ---**
I have a query.
**[18:48] ---**
How does one distinguish
between commander and soldier?
**[18:53] ---**
I gotta spell that out for you, too?!
**[18:56] ---**
The commander's the guy who's
surrounded by soldiers and acts big!
**[19:01] ---**
If you can't tell, just seize 'em all!
**[19:03] ---**
Why'd you guys cook up a
roundabout job to get me involved?!
**[19:08] ---**
Yes, I know I'm famous
in the Kanto for my skill!
**[19:12] ---**
So I fully understand
why you'd want me to join you!
**[19:17] ---**
Why'd you show me your
trump card of a tunnel
**[19:20] ---**
before you knew what I was gonna do?!
**[19:23] ---**
What are you thinking?!
**[19:25] ---**
I agree.
**[19:26] ---**
What?!
**[19:28] ---**
I don't trust you either,
and I'm against having you join, too.
**[19:32] ---**
But there's someone who wants you.
**[19:35] ---**
What, now?!
**[19:36] ---**
What's there to gain by this?!
Who is this connoisseur?!
**[19:41] ---**
You'll find out soon enough.
**[19:43] ---**
But let me make this clear.
**[19:46] ---**
We did not form this group
for self-interest.
**[19:49] ---**
We want to make the desert
a slightly better place.
**[19:54] ---**
A place where the people
of the desert can unite
**[19:57] ---**
and where even the poor
and weak can live in peace...
**[20:01] ---**
We wish to make such a world!
**[20:04] ---**
He just said what Master hates most...
**[20:07] ---**
His funeral!
**[20:10] ---**
What'd you say?!
**[20:14] ---**
Himuro! Respond! Shiozaki!
How's the right flank holding?!
**[20:18] ---**
This is Shiozaki! I'm the
only one in Squad ♪2 still-
**[20:24] ---**
--Seize them all... Seize them all...
**[20:24] ---**
--Seize them all... Seize them all...
**[20:27] ---**
--Seize them all... Seize them all...
**[20:27] ---**
--Seize them all... Seize them all...
**[20:30] ---**
No question about it! The damn
government has invested in 'em!
**[20:35] ---**
General Kawaguchi! We're pulling out!
**[20:38] ---**
Roger. The Sunabozu has been secured.
**[20:42] ---**
Where's Kanta?!
**[20:45] ---**
Master! We're going
to abandon Natsuko-san?!
**[20:48] ---**
Dumbass! We don't owe the government
or the factionists anything!
**[20:53] ---**
We ain't gonna get involved!
**[20:54] ---**
Y-yes, but...
**[20:56] ---**
Let's go!
**[20:58] ---**
Master!
**[21:14] ---**
The same kind as him?!
**[21:27] ---**
He fell for the trap!
**[21:30] ---**
Too bright!
**[21:32] ---**
Damn! How can you fall for such tricks?!
**[21:35] ---**
Samesuga! Damage?!
**[21:41] ---**
Minor. No problem posed
to continuance of operation.
**[21:47] ---**
How can they be so damn strong,
yet so damn stupid?!
**[21:51] ---**
Same goes for you.
**[21:54] ---**
N- Natsuko-san!
**[21:58] ---**
I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd
follow me with your own two legs...
**[22:08] ---**
Of course.
**[23:56] ---**
Hey! Fine Man of the Desert,
Kaido Masaru here!
**[23:58] ---**
Sunabozu! We'll never
forget your bravery!
**[24:00] ---**
Hey! Don't say such ominous crap!
**[24:02] ---**
If you say so.
**[24:03] ---**
And thus Master became
a blue shooting star...
**[24:06] ---**
Next episode- "Reverse and Handy"
**[24:07] ---**
Miss it and you'll be punished heavily!
**[24:09] ---**
You're serious?!

**[01:22] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[01:47] ---**
Wha? Where am I?
**[01:58] ---**
Asagiri Junko?!
**[02:01] ---**
This is a dream! After all, she was-
**[02:06] ---**
How are we feeling?!
**[02:08] ---**
What the hell're you doing?
**[02:10] ---**
Oh, can't you tell? I'm a nurse!
**[02:13] ---**
That's not what I mean...
**[02:15] ---**
Wasn't the Oasis secret service
torturing you beyond imagination?!
**[02:19] ---**
Oh, you were worried about me?!
**[02:22] ---**
I got a new job!
**[02:24] ---**
In the RHG!
**[02:25] ---**
Huh?!
**[02:28] ---**
Seems you hit your head when you tripped.
**[02:31] ---**
Be a nice boy for a little while longer!
**[02:33] ---**
Well, I'll be back later!
**[02:38] ---**
Yep, I'm dreamin'.
**[02:40] ---**
That broad'd never take
a job helping others...
**[02:44] ---**
Could this be the afterlife?
**[02:47] ---**
Maybe she was tortured to death
and became a nurse after reforming!
**[02:54] ---**
Still...
**[02:55] ---**
"Reverse and Handy"
**[02:56] ---**
What's the RHG?
**[03:03] ---**
Yo.
**[03:04] ---**
What's with the outfit?
**[03:08] ---**
That busty broad told me
to wear it 'cause it suits me.
**[03:10] ---**
"Koizumi Taiko- 14 Years Old"
**[03:13] ---**
That's all there is to wear!
**[03:21] ---**
So it wasn't a dream?
**[03:23] ---**
Seems this is a secret base
for Natsuko-san and the others,
**[03:26] ---**
but the food's great and they even
let me bathe, so I'm enjoying it!
**[03:31] ---**
So it is in the Oasis?
**[03:33] ---**
Yes.
**[03:34] ---**
It's in a corner much deeper than
the cave the government's using.
**[03:42] ---**
What do you suppose will happen now?
**[03:44] ---**
No point in broodin' over it now.
**[03:47] ---**
I'm just gonna eat my fill and sleep!
**[03:50] ---**
You certainly have some guts.
**[03:58] ---**
Y-you're!
**[04:05] ---**
So itchy!
**[04:06] ---**
What's wrong?!
**[04:07] ---**
This always happens when
he deals with pure people...
**[04:10] ---**
Y-you're that runaway Oasis soldier!
**[04:14] ---**
The pure-hearted bastard who helps
the weak by crushing the strong...
**[04:18] ---**
...Kaido Masaru!
**[04:20] ---**
Long time, no see!
**[04:22] ---**
Umm... Weren't you sold to a homo?
**[04:25] ---**
I definitely had a real tough time.
**[04:28] ---**
But the Oasis had been monitoring me,
so I was rescued before long.
**[04:33] ---**
Spoiled kids are spoiled kids,
wherever they go.
**[04:37] ---**
That's for sure.
**[04:38] ---**
I deeply apologize for my carelessness...
**[04:41] ---**
That voice!
The Chinoike Archaeology Team's-
**[04:44] ---**
-Dark Age historian, Ikeda.
**[04:48] ---**
In truth, we weren't going to persuade you
**[04:52] ---**
after considering your nature...
**[04:56] ---**
But after the Uzumaki Chemicals incident,
**[04:58] ---**
word got out that the Sunabozu
had been betrayed by the government
**[05:01] ---**
and so he moved on his own.
**[05:04] ---**
I'm very sorry.
**[05:06] ---**
I'm sure you've heard by now,
**[05:08] ---**
but we, the RHG, would like
to have the Sunabozu join us!
**[05:13] ---**
--RHG?
- -RHG?
**[05:15] ---**
Another handyman guild that secretly
upholds the future and freedom
**[05:19] ---**
of the denizens of
the Great Kanto Desert!
**[05:22] ---**
The Reverse Handyman Guild!
**[05:23] ---**
Abbreviated as...
**[05:25] ---**
--...RHG!
**[05:25] ---**
--...RHG!
**[05:27] ---**
As it operates now, the Oasis
government cannot help the unfortunate!
**[05:32] ---**
"If they can't do it, then we will!"
**[05:35] ---**
Officials and civilians
**[05:37] ---**
have gathered around this
idea to form the RHG!
**[05:41] ---**
Sunabozu-kun! Stand with us!
**[05:43] ---**
Yes! It's your duty to join us!
**[05:46] ---**
Sunabozu-kun! We know you don't
like how the government works!
**[05:50] ---**
I don't either, to be honest!
**[05:52] ---**
Neither do I, of course!
**[05:54] ---**
The RHG is a congregation of
people who feel the same as you!
**[05:57] ---**
Sunabozu-kun! Wouldn't you like
to help us win our freedom?!
**[06:01] ---**
Yes! It should make your own work-
**[06:04] ---**
Quit decidin' things for me.
**[06:07] ---**
I don't think the current
Oasis government is all that bad.
**[06:13] ---**
Yes, it has done some sucky stuff,
but I like it for the most part.
**[06:18] ---**
Food and medicine.
**[06:19] ---**
The government supplies the bare
essentials to survive in the desert.
**[06:24] ---**
But that's it.
**[06:27] ---**
They keep you alive,
but don't do any more than that.
**[06:30] ---**
"You're on your own if you
don't wanna die," is how they act.
**[06:35] ---**
I like that.
**[06:36] ---**
Actually, there's someone big
who highly values you...
**[06:40] ---**
Someone big?
**[06:42] ---**
The RHG guildhead.
**[06:45] ---**
Guildhead?
**[06:46] ---**
Me!
**[06:47] ---**
You?!
**[06:52] ---**
S-such intensity! Such stifling tension!
**[06:57] ---**
But it's no wonder.
**[06:58] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert's
two oddest men-
**[07:01] ---**
pervert fiend and master skinflint-
**[07:04] ---**
are staring it out in this tiny room!
**[07:08] ---**
The master skinflint is president
of the Game of Life Company
**[07:12] ---**
and greatest treasure hunter
in all the desert...
**[07:15] ---**
...Kaizuka Kaoru!
**[07:18] ---**
You came too, little one!
**[07:21] ---**
What's with that outfit?
**[07:23] ---**
I-it's good to see you.
**[07:25] ---**
So!
**[07:27] ---**
You threw Kaido, Natsuko, and the
rest out to tell me what, exactly?
**[07:33] ---**
If you'd just sell your game
like a good old man,
**[07:35] ---**
you could live what's
left of your life in peace...
**[07:39] ---**
Seems you're as twisted as ever.
**[07:42] ---**
Whatever do you mean?
**[07:45] ---**
I fall far short of a cold-blooded jerkoff
**[07:49] ---**
who pulls innocent people
**[07:52] ---**
into selfish bastards'
sappy-ass fairy tales.
**[08:03] ---**
You're one to talk.
**[08:05] ---**
Are you sure you're not happy
this chance actually came up?
**[08:17] ---**
It's that look again.
**[08:20] ---**
It's true I want to talk to you.
**[08:24] ---**
I deliberately became their palanquin.
**[08:28] ---**
You're going to carry me, too.
**[08:31] ---**
I thought you were gonna
call for me in 10 years, though...
**[08:35] ---**
There is no longer time
to be so laid-back.
**[08:38] ---**
I'm sure you've realized it, too.
**[08:41] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert is starting
to overflow with dangerous power.
**[08:45] ---**
Those monsters?
**[08:48] ---**
Not just them.
**[08:50] ---**
I assume you haven't forgotten
about the guardian at the skeleton city?
**[08:55] ---**
Hell no.
**[08:58] ---**
People originally gathered
in the Great Kanto Desert
**[09:01] ---**
because Dark Age artifacts
would turn up here.
**[09:07] ---**
But lately, the things dug up
have been getting newer and newer.
**[09:11] ---**
And they've all been dangerous
super-science objects.
**[09:16] ---**
Super-science... Super-science...
**[09:19] ---**
I get it. You worked your ass off
getting ahold of him
**[09:23] ---**
so you could take on the government...
**[09:27] ---**
You sure you just don't wanna
take over for the Oasis?!
**[09:30] ---**
I won't deny it!
**[09:36] ---**
What exactly could they be discussing?
**[09:39] ---**
Given those two,
it can't be anything good.
**[09:43] ---**
Why would someone of
Kaizuka-san's standing want him?
**[09:48] ---**
I doubt you'll ever understand!
**[09:59] ---**
During the Dark Age, a worldwide
environmental cataclysm occurred,
**[10:04] ---**
and the Kanto became a desert.
**[10:06] ---**
The Earth's nature lost its balance,
**[10:08] ---**
but it's said to be slowly returning
to its normal state on its own.
**[10:14] ---**
Lost its balance, huh?
What's "normal" mean?
**[10:19] ---**
That it will be an easier environment
for life to live in.
**[10:23] ---**
But the Oasis government
intends to do nothing to help it.
**[10:27] ---**
Guess nobody'd need the Oasis anymore
if that ever happened...
**[10:32] ---**
It's said that it'll take the planet
millennia or even dozens of millennia
**[10:36] ---**
to return to normal on its own.
**[10:41] ---**
Talk about patient.
**[10:42] ---**
So, what do you intend to do?
**[10:45] ---**
I'm not collecting Dark Age technology
just to topple the government.
**[10:52] ---**
I'm going to artificially speed up
the process and afforest the Earth.
**[10:56] ---**
"Afforest"
**[10:57] ---**
Afforest?
**[11:03] ---**
That ain't what I'm askin'.
**[11:05] ---**
What are you gonna make me do?!
**[11:14] ---**
"WEST"
**[11:16] ---**
"YDNAH"
**[11:17] ---**
Wow, "Reverse Handymen"...
**[11:20] ---**
I-it's so cool!
**[11:22] ---**
You guys ain't ordinary handymen
no more. Pull yourselves together.
**[11:27] ---**
Yeah! Act cool!
**[11:28] ---**
"(Reverse) Handyman"
**[11:29] ---**
F- Fuyu-niichan! Look, look!
**[11:31] ---**
I'm completely "RHG" now, too!
**[11:34] ---**
When did you-
**[11:35] ---**
Guy's suddenly more
rarin' to go than we are!
**[11:38] ---**
I can get serious too, when I have to!
**[11:43] ---**
W-what is it, Bro?
**[11:45] ---**
Somethin' there?
**[11:47] ---**
No... Must be my imagination...
**[12:03] ---**
We've reached an agreement!
**[12:05] ---**
The old man says he's hungry...
**[12:07] ---**
Yes! Right away!
**[12:09] ---**
So, what did you agree to?
**[12:12] ---**
I'll help you.
**[12:15] ---**
To what do we owe this surprise?
**[12:17] ---**
I'll be killed if I say no.
**[12:19] ---**
I'll be killed if I run.
**[12:21] ---**
So my only choice is to join you...
**[12:25] ---**
You're plannin' something.
**[12:26] ---**
Just something lucrative...
**[12:28] ---**
How do we know you won't betray us?
**[12:30] ---**
You won't trust me
no matter what I do, anyway.
**[12:34] ---**
That's true.
**[12:36] ---**
We're counting on you, Sunabozu!
**[12:49] ---**
Yahoo!
**[12:52] ---**
It's yummy, yummy lunch time!
**[12:54] ---**
Eat lots and regain your strength!
**[12:58] ---**
OK! Say ah!
**[13:02] ---**
Come on!
**[13:03] ---**
Ah!
**[13:09] ---**
C'mon...
**[13:11] ---**
What's the matter?
**[13:34] ---**
H-he's handling me
like I weigh nothin'!
**[13:38] ---**
Damn you!
**[13:41] ---**
Howdya like that?!
**[13:44] ---**
W-what?!
**[13:49] ---**
Gotta tell... Natsuko...
**[13:53] ---**
Guests?!
**[13:54] ---**
I'll greet them!
**[13:56] ---**
Master!
**[13:58] ---**
Look, look! New model equipment!
**[14:00] ---**
Wow! It's so light!
**[14:02] ---**
Master! Master!
**[14:05] ---**
Here I come! I'm gonna get ya!
**[14:08] ---**
No! I only let rich people catch me!
**[14:13] ---**
The RHG's gonna pay me
whatever I want! Lemme catch you!
**[14:18] ---**
In that case, go ahead!
**[14:19] ---**
Oh! 10,000 yen a feel, you know!
**[14:22] ---**
You're the same as ever, Sunabozu.
**[14:25] ---**
Tanigawa Seiji-kun!
**[14:27] ---**
Heya.
**[14:29] ---**
You stalker!
**[14:30] ---**
N-no! The RHG's ideals intrigued me!
**[14:33] ---**
Who cares about that.
**[14:35] ---**
Don't tell me those are our suits?
**[14:38] ---**
Yep!
**[14:39] ---**
They look the same on the outside,
**[14:41] ---**
but they're the same as the
Fisheye Specials on the inside!
**[14:44] ---**
More advanced, in fact!
**[14:46] ---**
Try it out!
**[14:47] ---**
If you need test partners,
there's some out front!
**[14:50] ---**
The guys from before?
**[14:51] ---**
Probably. Can you handle 'em for us?
**[14:55] ---**
Like I really got a choice here.
**[14:58] ---**
Thanks.
**[14:59] ---**
I'm going to evacuate Kaizuka-san.
Asagiri and Tanigawa, come too!
**[15:03] ---**
Right!
**[15:04] ---**
Hold on!
**[15:05] ---**
Later, Kan-chan!
**[15:10] ---**
How did Kaizuka-san's evacuation go?!
**[15:12] ---**
All OK here!
**[15:14] ---**
Then head to the underground parking lot!
**[15:17] ---**
We'll be there soon!
**[15:32] ---**
Damn monster!
**[15:42] ---**
Keep your hands off of Natsuko!
**[15:46] ---**
Fuyu-niisan! Aki-niisan!
**[15:56] ---**
Haruo!
**[16:02] ---**
So easy to move in!
**[16:04] ---**
Taiko.
**[16:05] ---**
Yes?
**[16:18] ---**
Koizumi Taiko-kun!
**[16:20] ---**
As of this moment,
your training is complete!
**[16:23] ---**
Congratulations! You are
now a full-fledged handyman!
**[16:34] ---**
"Self-Dependence"
**[16:34] ---**
Yay! Yay!
**[16:37] ---**
So the enemies out front are all yours.
**[16:42] ---**
Eh? W-what are you going to do?
**[16:45] ---**
Use your head. This is a
secret anti-government base.
**[16:50] ---**
They're not gonna throw everything
they got at the front door.
**[16:54] ---**
While Natsuko and the rest are
handling them, the real attack'll come...
**[16:57] ---**
...from the rear.
**[16:59] ---**
Then you're going to-
**[17:01] ---**
The last thing the old man said...
do you know what it meant?
**[17:06] ---**
Once the Oasis is gone, it'll take
some time until my plan bears fruit.
**[17:11] ---**
Current society will need to survive
until then. That, I will manage.
**[17:13] ---**
Current society will need to survive
until then. That, I will manage.
**[17:17] ---**
However...
**[17:19] ---**
After that, comes your guys' work.
**[17:23] ---**
The old man said he's
about to take a shit
**[17:26] ---**
and that he wants us
to wipe his ass for him.
**[17:29] ---**
Eh?!
**[17:30] ---**
I don't like any of it.
**[17:32] ---**
The old man, Kaido,
Natsuko... RHG? Get real.
**[17:37] ---**
Master...
**[17:39] ---**
We're handymen.
**[17:40] ---**
We don't work for ideas
and principles like them.
**[17:46] ---**
Let's show those "Reverse Handymen"
**[17:50] ---**
what real handymen do!
**[17:52] ---**
Right!
**[17:53] ---**
The front'll be tough enough.
I leave it to you, Handyman Kosuna!
**[17:58] ---**
Handyman Kosuna?
**[18:01] ---**
Alright! Let's do it!
**[18:02] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[18:04] ---**
Handyman Kosuna! Alright! Here I come!
**[18:22] ---**
A robot soldier?!
**[18:25] ---**
General Kawaguchi!
**[18:27] ---**
Into the truck! Hurry!
**[18:38] ---**
Step on it!
**[18:48] ---**
Bastard!
**[18:56] ---**
Commander located.
**[18:58] ---**
Excellent! That's not just the commander!
It's Kaizuka Kaoru!
**[19:02] ---**
So the Game of Life president
is the faction's don!
**[19:06] ---**
Ayukawa! That's him, all right!
Capture him at all costs!
**[19:10] ---**
Understood.
**[19:16] ---**
H-help!
**[19:20] ---**
Incoming!
**[19:28] ---**
Good job!
**[19:35] ---**
Taiko-*chan*...
**[19:36] ---**
Natsuko-*san*! Get me outta here!
**[19:46] ---**
Hey, Ayukawa! What happened?! Hey!
**[19:49] ---**
W-wait!
**[19:51] ---**
Way to go, Kosuna!
**[19:55] ---**
You're somethin' else!
**[19:57] ---**
Well, I *am* a handyman!
**[19:59] ---**
What happened to Kanta?
**[20:03] ---**
Master said he was going to
show everyone what real handymen do...
**[20:09] ---**
So he ran away.
**[20:12] ---**
M- Master saw that the real
attack would come from behind!
**[20:17] ---**
He said he'd handle them by himself!
**[20:19] ---**
That's a real handyman!
**[20:22] ---**
Master did not run away!
**[20:24] ---**
Yikes... Did they really
attack from this way?
**[20:28] ---**
Here I was hoping to use 'em all
as a big decoy to escape!
**[20:33] ---**
It's a lie turned true...
**[20:38] ---**
Master is...
**[20:40] ---**
Master is!
**[20:42] ---**
Kan-chan...
**[21:18] ---**
No... way...
**[21:25] ---**
Rearward forces eliminated.
Mission accomplished.
**[21:31] ---**
Never mind the small-fries!
Go help Ayukawa!
**[21:35] ---**
Understood.
**[21:50] ---**
Kosuna...
**[21:54] ---**
Master...
**[21:56] ---**
I'm going to help my master!
**[21:59] ---**
Stop, Kosuna!
**[22:01] ---**
Let go of me!
**[22:02] ---**
Master is... Master is!
**[22:04] ---**
**[22:14] ---**
Ol' Kanta...
**[22:17] ---**
M- Master!
**[23:56] ---**
Well, it's been a fun ride!
**[23:57] ---**
I've enjoyed playing
Ghost of the Desert, Sunabozu!
**[24:00] ---**
Unfortunately, my role ends
with today's show,
**[24:03] ---**
but I hope to see you all

So next episode is

**[01:22] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[01:48] ---**
Half a year has passed since then.
**[01:55] ---**
Kosuna...
**[02:14] ---**
M- Master!
**[02:29] ---**
I went there several times afterwards
to look around the place,
**[02:33] ---**
but all that was left
was sand and rubble.
**[02:40] ---**
Even so, I always felt my master
might just stroll in out of the blue...
**[02:46] ---**
...but he never did.
**[02:50] ---**
I suppose he really did die after all...
**[02:56] ---**
Even when I offer him his
favorite bug dumplings like this,
**[03:01] ---**
I'm still unable to come to grips with it.
**[03:11] ---**
"Asshole" "Go to hell!" "Moron"
**[03:13] ---**
Master...
**[03:16] ---**
He was tightfisted, vile,
and always greedy to the max,
**[03:22] ---**
not to mention a diabolical
and cruel person...
**[03:28] ---**
...but at the very end,
he was truly admirable!
**[03:43] ---**
B-but just you watch, Master!
**[03:46] ---**
I, Koizumi Taiko, in order to become
the desert's most skilled beauty-
**[03:51] ---**
Yes, as Sunabozu the 2nd,
I will work my very hardest!
**[04:03] ---**
"Master and Pupil, Part II"
**[04:04] ---**
J-just you watch!
**[04:07] ---**
"Matsunami Winches"
**[04:14] ---**
Yay!
**[04:17] ---**
Yay!
**[04:19] ---**
At last... I've bought it!
**[04:22] ---**
A Matsunami Custom Order-Made
Rocket Winch!
**[04:28] ---**
You know how to use it, right?
**[04:30] ---**
Yes! I practiced using my master's!
**[04:34] ---**
Ah.
**[04:36] ---**
Don't get too reckless, now.
**[04:39] ---**
I can't afford to lose any more
clients in these hard economic times...
**[04:44] ---**
"Any more"?
**[04:46] ---**
To think guys who seemed impossible to kill
**[04:50] ---**
would die so easily...
**[04:54] ---**
There's no understandin' the world.
**[04:58] ---**
Actually, my master-
**[05:01] ---**
- said that he would use
nothing but Matsunami Customs.
**[05:09] ---**
OK! All set! Just lemme know
if you ever want something tuned up!
**[05:14] ---**
Right!
**[05:17] ---**
U-umm...
**[05:20] ---**
Mitsuru! When did you get back?!
**[05:23] ---**
Umm... Well...
**[05:25] ---**
Did you finish walking the
Heracles Goldion Beetle already?!
**[05:29] ---**
Well... Mugenya-san said...
**[05:31] ---**
Huh?!
**[05:33] ---**
...he has work.
**[05:35] ---**
Ugh! Why didn't you say so sooner?!
**[05:38] ---**
I- I'm sorry!
**[05:40] ---**
Okay, Matsunami-san! Thank you very much!
**[05:43] ---**
No problem. Take care, now.
**[05:45] ---**
Let's go, Mitsuru!
**[05:46] ---**
W-wait!
**[05:51] ---**
Matsunami-san!
**[05:52] ---**
I'm going to work my hardest,
so you work your hardest, too!
**[05:58] ---**
Yeah, I know.
**[06:00] ---**
I do have six brats to feed and all.
**[06:05] ---**
Bye, now!
**[06:06] ---**
What're you just standing around for?!
**[06:08] ---**
S-sorry!
**[06:09] ---**
Honestly! You're so hopeless!
**[06:12] ---**
This spaz of a kid is Mitsuru.
**[06:15] ---**
My master's master, Koidemizu-san,
**[06:17] ---**
said it'd be tough to work alone,
so he stuck him with me as a pupil.
**[06:24] ---**
I appreciate Koidemizu-san's kindness,
**[06:27] ---**
but the kid screws up at everything
**[06:29] ---**
and is an absolutely useless flake.
**[06:34] ---**
But... so was I, once...
**[06:45] ---**
Eh?!
**[06:45] ---**
"Handyman Guild- Mugenya"
**[06:47] ---**
The Kawazu Clan?!
**[06:50] ---**
Y-yes, that's right...
**[06:54] ---**
But my master
took care of them before!
**[06:57] ---**
Well, they've apparently re-formed,
**[07:00] ---**
so the Commerce Association
wants them taken care of right away...
**[07:06] ---**
Very well! Leave it to me,
Handyman Kosuna!
**[07:12] ---**
No, it's still too much for you,
so the Kawaguchi Brothers-
**[07:16] ---**
No! I insist that you let me do it!
**[07:23] ---**
A-are you sure? I see you
have an assistant now, but...
**[07:28] ---**
*glance*
**[07:34] ---**
We'll be fine!
**[07:35] ---**
As inheritor of all of the
Sunabozu's techniques, I, Kosuna-
**[07:38] ---**
No! As Sunabozu the 2nd...
**[07:41] ---**
...I promise I will crush
the Kawazu Clan flat!
**[07:46] ---**
So hot.
**[07:48] ---**
"Water Station ♪30"
**[07:57] ---**
But with that said...
**[08:00] ---**
*glance*
**[08:01] ---**
*eep*
**[08:03] ---**
This kid won't be any help-
**[08:06] ---**
I'll have to do it all myself...
**[08:09] ---**
U-umm... I'm sorry...
**[08:12] ---**
Listen, you!
**[08:15] ---**
What's the matter, Taiko-chan?
**[08:19] ---**
Well? How about a quick drink?
**[08:22] ---**
Sure...
**[08:28] ---**
Another cold one, barkeep!
**[08:30] ---**
Same here!
**[08:31] ---**
Yo, Taiko-chan!
**[08:33] ---**
How's it goin' lately?
**[08:34] ---**
Decent enough!
**[08:36] ---**
Must be nice not havin' that
asshole punk pushin' you around, huh?
**[08:41] ---**
But it's just like Kanta to kick
the bucket without paying his tab...
**[08:46] ---**
I apologize! If that's true, then I'll-
**[08:48] ---**
Don't worry about it, Taiko-chan!
You don't owe anything!
**[08:52] ---**
Besides, it's well worth the price
to be rid of that scab!
**[08:57] ---**
He was called "Ghost of the Desert"
or whatever,
**[09:00] ---**
but he was just an ordinary guy...
I mean ordinary shitsack!
**[09:06] ---**
Oh, yeah! I hear-
**[09:16] ---**
Honestly, what are they thinking?!
**[09:19] ---**
They stuck Master with tons of
tough jobs they couldn't do!
**[09:23] ---**
Eh? What's wrong?
**[09:26] ---**
Nothing at all!
**[09:27] ---**
S-sorry!
**[09:31] ---**
I-it's nothing at all...
**[09:39] ---**
That sound...
**[09:44] ---**
A 7.62 millimeter?
**[09:49] ---**
Alright, bastards!
**[09:51] ---**
This is West Oasis territory!
What do you think you bandits're doin'?!
**[09:56] ---**
We only set out to
sell some wares! Why us?!
**[09:59] ---**
Honey!
**[10:01] ---**
I'm hungry!
**[10:05] ---**
Don't worry!
**[10:06] ---**
With us here, they won't be
layin' a single finger on you!
**[10:15] ---**
The Kawaguchi Brothers?
Who're they fighting?!
**[10:23] ---**
Hey, Haruo! How're you holdin' up?
**[10:25] ---**
Just fine, Brother! The Kawazu Clan's
starting to scurry off!
**[10:29] ---**
Don't let your guard down!
They could still be anywhere!
**[10:33] ---**
The Kawazu Clan?!
**[10:46] ---**
I found a good sucker!
**[10:54] ---**
Now that I'm out here...
**[10:57] ---**
The boss is gonna kill me.
**[10:59] ---**
I wouldn't worry
about that if I were you!
**[11:02] ---**
W-who's there?!
**[11:18] ---**
Over there?!
**[11:19] ---**
Over here!
**[11:37] ---**
Ow...
**[11:39] ---**
Ow...
**[11:40] ---**
Way to go, Matsunami Custom!
All's well that ends well!
**[11:46] ---**
T- Taiko-san!
**[11:49] ---**
I told you to call me
"Kosuna-sensei" during jobs!
**[11:53] ---**
Sorry!
**[11:56] ---**
I- I apologize!
**[12:02] ---**
Ah, well.
**[12:03] ---**
Guess I'll show you the
Sunabozu-style of doing things now.
**[12:08] ---**
Eh?
**[12:09] ---**
Mitsuru! You're going
to help too, of course!
**[12:12] ---**
Eh?!
**[12:22] ---**
Huh? The West Oasis hired bodyguards?
**[12:27] ---**
Yes! A group o' three
real good machine gun guys!
**[12:31] ---**
They caught us totally by surprise,
so we couldn't do a thing...
**[12:40] ---**
Ah, well. I'll kill 'em sooner or later.
**[12:46] ---**
Now that the detestable
Sunabozu is long dead,
**[12:50] ---**
there's no one left who can defy
our re-formed Neo Kawazu Gang.
**[12:55] ---**
R-right!
**[12:56] ---**
That's the boss of the reborn
Neo Kawazu Gang for you!
**[12:59] ---**
He's dependable to the end!
**[13:02] ---**
This time it's gelatin...
**[13:06] ---**
"Neo Kawazu Clan Boss
Neo Kawazu Makoto, Age 38"
**[13:08] ---**
Gelatin, gelatin! My dear gelatin!
**[13:12] ---**
It's almost like it's alive!
Mmm! Yummy!
**[13:15] ---**
Wait, you're lacking in numbers.
**[13:20] ---**
You almost had me fooled...
**[13:22] ---**
A-actually, Katsumi just fell behind...
**[13:26] ---**
Don't worry! He'll be back soon!
**[13:28] ---**
B-bad news!
**[13:30] ---**
What's wrong?!
**[13:31] ---**
When I went to look for Katsumi,
**[13:34] ---**
I found him knocked out and buck naked!
**[13:39] ---**
And then... there was this
letter on his crotch!
**[13:41] ---**
"To Kawazu Makoto"
**[13:43] ---**
Letter? From whom?
**[13:46] ---**
W-well, you won't believe it,
**[13:50] ---**
but it's from the Sunabozu!
**[13:54] ---**
The Sunabozu?!
**[13:56] ---**
No way! He died half a year ago!
**[13:58] ---**
It's gotta be some mistake!
**[14:00] ---**
Read it.
**[14:02] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[14:04] ---**
"Dear Neo Kawazu Boss.
Your mommy has an outie!"
**[14:09] ---**
"A huge outie! Such a gigantic outie!
A humongous outie-"
**[14:16] ---**
Mommy does not have an outie!
**[14:22] ---**
The boss is mad!
**[14:23] ---**
It's his Hulkosis again!
**[14:27] ---**
Hurry! Give him his jiggly gelatin!
**[14:39] ---**
Sunabozu!
**[14:41] ---**
Nothing could make me
happier than you being back!
**[14:44] ---**
This time I will kill you
with my own two hands!
**[14:49] ---**
--C'mon, I'm right here! Bring it on!
**[14:50] ---**
--H-here he comes! It's the Sunabozu!
**[14:54] ---**
Alright! Everyone ready!
**[15:15] ---**
Well?! Did we get him?!
**[15:17] ---**
Just a moment!
**[15:19] ---**
Bastard's good at usin'
balloons and other cheap tricks!
**[15:22] ---**
Don't let 'im fool you!
**[15:25] ---**
T-there he is!
**[15:26] ---**
He's running away like mad!
**[15:28] ---**
You're sure it ain't
just another balloon?!
**[15:31] ---**
No, it's really him!
He's running on two legs!
**[15:36] ---**
Alright! Don't let him escape!
After him!
**[15:39] ---**
--But, Boss! It could be a trap-
**[15:40] ---**
--You shit!
**[15:43] ---**
Even if he's got mines, ain't no way
he can kill this many so easy!
**[15:48] ---**
Just chase him! Chase him
to the ends of the earth!
**[16:13] ---**
Nobody says my mommy has an outie
and gets away with it!
**[16:17] ---**
Don't let him escape, no matter what!
**[16:27] ---**
Fool! Now you're-
**[16:29] ---**
Wha...?
**[16:31] ---**
Who're you guys?
**[16:46] ---**
What is this?!
**[17:05] ---**
Damn! Not again!
**[17:21] ---**
How in the world-
**[17:24] ---**
It was thanks to you.
**[17:27] ---**
Couldn't rely on mines
in this wide-open space,
**[17:30] ---**
and there were way
too many to snipe off!
**[17:35] ---**
I didn't think it would
work this great, though!
**[17:38] ---**
Good thing I heard the
taboo phrase from my master!
**[17:42] ---**
Taboo phrase?
**[17:43] ---**
Yep! "Your mommy has an outie!"
**[17:48] ---**
My...
**[17:51] ---**
My mommy does not...
**[17:53] ---**
...have an outie!
**[18:03] ---**
Kosuna-san!
**[18:04] ---**
Idiot... I said to call me...
Kosuna-sensei...
**[18:11] ---**
You ain't the Sunabozu!
**[18:14] ---**
How dare you trick me!
**[18:24] ---**
Die!
**[18:46] ---**
Y-you're...!
**[18:59] ---**
Mitsuru!
**[19:01] ---**
He's...
**[19:04] ---**
Eh? Mitsuru-kun as my assistant?
**[19:09] ---**
I figure things might be rough
if you set out as a lone handyman now.
**[19:14] ---**
B-but isn't he your dear son?!
**[19:18] ---**
No, this boy'll be
a handyman too, someday.
**[19:21] ---**
So he really should be
trained as soon as possible...
**[19:28] ---**
It's rude of me to say this, but-
**[19:32] ---**
I know what you want
to say, Taiko-chan. Still...
**[19:37] ---**
He just might be of use, should you
ever find yourself in trouble...
**[19:42] ---**
Eh?!
**[19:45] ---**
So this is what Koidemizu-san
was talking about...
**[20:05] ---**
W-wait, s-stop!
**[20:18] ---**
Mommy... does not have an outie.
**[20:29] ---**
A-alright! Well done, Mitsuru!
**[20:37] ---**
W-wait! I'm your master, you know!
**[20:43] ---**
W-we need to sit down and talk!
**[20:45] ---**
We can be supportive siblings!
**[20:50] ---**
Desert people need to help each other-
**[21:08] ---**
I think I may have
one hell of bomb on my hands!
**[21:23] ---**
I later learned that
Mitsuru developed his Hulkosis
**[21:27] ---**
after being subjected to a great
emotional shock at the age of three.
**[21:32] ---**
Ugh! Why do I, the master,
have to carry my pupil back!
**[21:44] ---**
Still...
**[21:46] ---**
Will I be able to fully utilize
this boy later on down the road?
**[21:57] ---**
Natsuko-san! You came!
**[22:00] ---**
Hey!
**[22:06] ---**
Regardless, as Sunabozu the 2nd,
I'm going to work my very best
**[22:10] ---**
to be Koizumi Taiko, the Great
Kanto Desert's most skilled beauty!
**[23:56] ---**
Tadah! It's Skilled Beauty
of the Desert, Kosuna!
**[23:58] ---**
--How was my adorable performance?!
--Umm...
**[24:00] ---**
Great, wasn't it, Mitsuru?!
**[24:02] ---**
I'm sorry! I cooked
and ate the Goldion Beetle!
**[24:04] ---**
You dimwit!
**[24:06] ---**
Anyways, next episode is "Rain and Sea"!
**[24:08] ---**
Miss it and...
**[24:08] ---**
I'm hungry!

**[01:22] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[02:29] ---**
I'm Koizumi Taiko!
**[02:31] ---**
I'm 14 and intent on being the
Great Kanto Desert's ♪1 skilled beauty!
**[02:37] ---**
Oops, wrong one...
**[02:39] ---**
With my pupil Mitsuru,
I beat up bad people of the desert!
**[02:43] ---**
Or that was the idea...
**[02:45] ---**
Truth is, Mitsuru has Hulkosis
and transforms into a sadistic beast
**[02:49] ---**
whenever he's subjected
to an emotional shock.
**[02:53] ---**
Am I gonna be able to fully
utilize Mitsuru down the road?
**[02:58] ---**
After somehow finishing
a job and returning to town,
**[03:01] ---**
I found my idol, Natsuko-san,
waiting to give me one heck of a job.
**[03:05] ---**
It was to be-
**[03:07] ---**
Eh?!
**[03:09] ---**
Security for the Reverse Handyman
Guild's first strategy meeting?!
**[03:16] ---**
"Rain and Sea"
**[03:21] ---**
In the past few months,
villages excavating ruins on their own
**[03:25] ---**
and companies like Uzumaki
moving away from government control
**[03:28] ---**
have come under attack
and destruction by the enemy!
**[03:32] ---**
Enemy?
**[03:33] ---**
The government army.
**[03:35] ---**
No way! The Oasis government
would kill its own citizens?!
**[03:40] ---**
You're so na ve, Haruo.
**[03:42] ---**
Have they ever once cared about us?
**[03:46] ---**
Besides, you're considered a traitor
**[03:49] ---**
if you dig up ruins on your own...
**[03:51] ---**
However! If nothing is done,
**[03:54] ---**
we will forever be the Oasis' pet dogs!
**[03:57] ---**
Now is the time for we, the RHG,
**[03:59] ---**
to stand up for the happiness
of all desert people!
**[04:03] ---**
Happiness, huh...
**[04:05] ---**
At any rate, that's what
this conference is for.
**[04:09] ---**
But if you're taking on
the government army,
**[04:11] ---**
doesn't that mean you
might run into them again?!
**[04:15] ---**
"Them"...?!
**[04:17] ---**
You mean them?!
**[04:21] ---**
There's a good possibility.
**[04:25] ---**
The compensation will make up for it.
But if you want to decline-
**[04:29] ---**
N-no! I'll do it!
They killed my master, after all!
**[04:34] ---**
We're in, too! They could
try to kill you, Natsuko!
**[04:39] ---**
Yeah! What kind of brothers would
we be if we didn't protect you?!
**[04:43] ---**
I- I'll protect you, too, Natsu-ne!
**[04:46] ---**
Thanks, everyone!
**[04:48] ---**
We're counting on you!
**[04:49] ---**
--Right!
- -Right!
**[04:51] ---**
U-umm, Taiko-san...
**[04:54] ---**
What're you doing?!
**[04:55] ---**
Why aren't you walking the
Kawaharas' Heracles Goldion Beetle?!
**[04:59] ---**
Well...
**[05:00] ---**
It kept walking around everywhere,
so when I tugged at it...
**[05:07] ---**
Y-you don't mean...!
**[05:08] ---**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
I'm really sorry! I'm really sorry!
**[05:14] ---**
Honestly! Just had to do it
when we were broke!
**[05:17] ---**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[05:19] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[05:20] ---**
Like apologizing will fix anything!
**[05:23] ---**
Sorry!
**[05:25] ---**
Whatever! Go get us ready for tomorrow!
**[05:28] ---**
Right!
**[05:30] ---**
Sheesh, can't even
walk a stupid bug right...
**[05:37] ---**
Ah well.
**[05:42] ---**
"Reverse Handyman"
**[05:43] ---**
Looks like you're ready.
**[05:45] ---**
Yep! All set!
**[05:47] ---**
Dark Age monsters or ghosts
or whatever! Bring it on!
**[05:51] ---**
Alright! Get on!
**[05:54] ---**
Come on, Mitsuru! Get moving!
**[05:56] ---**
R-right!
**[05:58] ---**
Oh, a job?
**[06:00] ---**
Matsunami-san!
**[06:02] ---**
Looks pretty flashy.
Taking care of bandits?
**[06:06] ---**
Uhh...
**[06:08] ---**
Yeah, something like that.
What about you, Matsunami-san?
**[06:12] ---**
The missus nags how I should
play with the kids sometimes...
**[06:18] ---**
It must be tough...
**[06:20] ---**
Oh, that reminds me.
I got an interesting job.
**[06:25] ---**
It was an order to make a
rocket winch just like ol' Kanta's.
**[06:32] ---**
Daddy!
**[06:34] ---**
Oh, sorry!
**[06:36] ---**
Well, good luck!
**[06:38] ---**
Right!
**[06:39] ---**
Oh, Matsunami-san!
**[06:42] ---**
If you don't mind,
could I see that winch later?
**[06:46] ---**
Sure, no problem.
**[06:48] ---**
We're leavin' now!
**[06:54] ---**
See you later!
**[06:56] ---**
--Bye-bye!
**[06:56] ---**
--See you later!
**[07:00] ---**
So it's time...
**[07:02] ---**
...warriors!
**[07:12] ---**
♪ "Everyone is calling again today!" ♪
**[07:16] ---**
♪ "The denizens
of the desert are crying!" ♪
**[07:21] ---**
♪ "We will crush the evil government!" ♪
**[07:24] ---**
♪ "Dreams and justice
and the hopes of the people!" ♪

♪ "Oh, oh! The West Oasis-" ♪
**[07:32] ---**
Reverse!
**[07:33] ---**
♪ "-Handyman Guild!" ♪
**[07:48] ---**
So anyways, Taiko-chan.
**[07:50] ---**
How's your pupil comin' along?
**[07:52] ---**
He's pathetic!
**[07:53] ---**
He can't use a gun, he's quick to whine,
**[07:56] ---**
and he can't even walk a bug!
**[08:00] ---**
He'll never be on
the front lines like that!
**[08:07] ---**
What's the matter?
**[08:08] ---**
No, it's nothing...
**[08:12] ---**
We're here.
**[08:13] ---**
Here?
**[08:15] ---**
Smack in the middle of...
**[08:18] ---**
...a skeleton city?
**[08:22] ---**
But isn't this-
**[08:27] ---**
Yes. You should recognize it.
**[08:29] ---**
It's the place Kaizuka-san found
20 years ago- the 85th skeleton city.
**[08:34] ---**
But last time it took a
really long time to get here...
**[08:38] ---**
Kaizuka-san is very cautious.
He must've purposely taken a long way.
**[08:45] ---**
Then all that suffering was for-
**[08:47] ---**
Now, then.
**[08:48] ---**
The security teams are already
in position, but you'll be-
**[08:54] ---**
What's that?!
**[08:55] ---**
Taiko-san?!
**[08:57] ---**
Idiot! That's "sensei"!
You wait right there!
**[09:00] ---**
You're the one who's waiting!
**[09:01] ---**
But it could be the enemy, you know!
**[09:05] ---**
What the...?!
**[09:10] ---**
They were beaten to death after
they blasted away like amateurs!
**[09:25] ---**
My, what a crude how-do-you-do...
**[09:30] ---**
Y-you're...!
**[09:32] ---**
Yo.
**[09:34] ---**
I remember you, kiddo.
Name's Kosuna, if I recall.
**[09:39] ---**
You used to hang behind
the Sunabozu like goldfish dung...
**[09:44] ---**
Shut up!
**[09:45] ---**
Anyways, could you lower the gun?
We are both in the RHG...
**[09:50] ---**
L-liar!
**[09:51] ---**
It's the truth.
**[09:53] ---**
Natsuko-san?
**[09:55] ---**
We hired this man.
**[10:09] ---**
Still, it's odd.
**[10:13] ---**
They were all professional
soldiers with military training.
**[10:16] ---**
Yet, they were so easily-
**[10:18] ---**
Ooh.
**[10:21] ---**
T-these are--
**[10:23] ---**
Fancy as the equipment may be,
**[10:26] ---**
there's no concealing the footprints.
**[10:30] ---**
You're alright!
**[10:32] ---**
You OK, Natsuko?!
**[10:34] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[10:35] ---**
Stop right there!
**[10:38] ---**
As I said earlier, you are
to guard the conference center!
**[10:41] ---**
B-but...
**[10:43] ---**
The RHG might not be an army,
but a superior's orders are absolute!
**[10:47] ---**
Y-yeah, but we're also siblings...
**[10:51] ---**
Your brothers are worried about you...
**[10:54] ---**
Natsu-ne...!
**[10:57] ---**
S-sorry...
**[11:00] ---**
I'll leave the pursuit to
Kosuna-san, Amagumo-san,
**[11:04] ---**
and Kaido-san.
**[11:05] ---**
Got it!
**[11:07] ---**
Leave it to me...
**[11:09] ---**
U-umm... What about me?
**[11:12] ---**
Idiot! You be quiet
and wait in the truck!
**[11:15] ---**
Oh, how kind! Concerned for
your cute little minion, are we?
**[11:20] ---**
Y-you wish!
**[11:21] ---**
Take him with you.
**[11:23] ---**
But...
**[11:24] ---**
Actual combat experience is important.
**[11:27] ---**
If you say so, Natsuko-san...
**[11:29] ---**
Now that that's decided...
**[11:33] ---**
This prey is mine!
**[11:35] ---**
Hey! No head starts!
**[11:39] ---**
Good grief.
**[11:40] ---**
Well, whadya say we go?
**[11:41] ---**
R-right!
**[11:53] ---**
This looks bad. They're headed
for the conference center!
**[12:00] ---**
They stopped...
**[12:02] ---**
It looks like they took off
with a rocket winch or something...
**[12:17] ---**
What the...?!
**[12:29] ---**
Taiko-san. Something strange is-
**[12:32] ---**
Call me "sensei"!
**[12:42] ---**
Taiko-san!
**[12:48] ---**
What're you doing?!
**[12:51] ---**
What the heck is that thing?!
**[12:54] ---**
I-it's a ghost!
**[12:56] ---**
Idiot! Like ghosts shoot guns!
**[12:59] ---**
Well, the fact it makes no sense
puts it on the same level as a ghost...
**[13:06] ---**
A legacy from the Dark Age!
**[13:09] ---**
I once heard they have special camouflage
**[13:12] ---**
capable of avoiding not just sensors,
**[13:15] ---**
but sight- human eyes- as well!
**[13:20] ---**
Oh no! The conference center!
**[13:23] ---**
An unseen enemy, huh?
**[13:25] ---**
I couldn't ask for a better opponent...
**[13:27] ---**
Let's go, then!
**[13:29] ---**
However, I just remembered
something I forgot!
**[13:32] ---**
I leave the rest to you!
**[13:39] ---**
H-he ran away!
**[13:44] ---**
Adios!
**[13:47] ---**
Bastard!
**[13:49] ---**
In any case, I must go!
**[13:52] ---**
Can you?
**[13:54] ---**
Even if we are up against powerful,
vile robot soldiers...
**[14:00] ---**
...using Dark Age super-science...
**[14:04] ---**
...I... must go!
**[14:11] ---**
Asari-chan! And Shijimi-chan!
**[14:14] ---**
I absolutely must let this
first meeting of the RHG succeed
**[14:18] ---**
to keep any more sisters like you
from befalling misfortune!
**[14:23] ---**
I'll do it! For the love and
peace of all the desert people!
**[14:29] ---**
He stupid?
**[14:32] ---**
So cool!
**[14:34] ---**
Eh?!
**[14:36] ---**
So, how'd it go?
**[14:38] ---**
Just some minor equipment damage.
No problems.
**[14:42] ---**
Hey, be careful, now. Your super-fancy
equipment'll be for naught.
**[14:46] ---**
Don't worry. I will
accomplish the mission.
**[14:50] ---**
See that you do.
**[14:51] ---**
Your guys' master is here to watch today.
**[14:55] ---**
I see. Give him my regards.
**[14:59] ---**
He gives his regards, Master!
**[15:11] ---**
You all right?!
**[15:13] ---**
C'mon, Mitsuru!
Quit your pantin', will ya?!
**[15:17] ---**
S-sorry...
**[15:20] ---**
So, this is...
**[15:22] ---**
...the entrance to
the conference center?!
**[15:24] ---**
Yeah. They've built a conference center
in the ruins below.
**[15:28] ---**
General Kawaguchi and her brothers
should already be at the bottom.
**[15:32] ---**
Old man Kaizuka, too?
**[15:35] ---**
He's here, of course.
**[15:36] ---**
I'm relieved to hear that!
**[15:41] ---**
Thanks for showing the way!
**[15:49] ---**
You can be so cunning,
yet make such mistakes in judgment.
**[15:53] ---**
Humans are such fascinating creatures.
**[15:59] ---**
It's a pity, but you must die.
**[16:04] ---**
Kaido-san!
**[16:06] ---**
--Mitsuru!
**[16:07] ---**
--Yes?!
**[16:07] ---**
--Do your Hulkosis right now!
**[16:09] ---**
--Eh?
**[16:10] ---**
It's the only way
out of this predicament!
**[16:13] ---**
What on earth are you-
**[16:15] ---**
Just do it!
**[16:17] ---**
Eh?! W-what are you talking about?!
**[16:21] ---**
What a pain!
**[16:24] ---**
W-what are you doing, Taiko-san?!
**[16:31] ---**
I- I'm sorry! I'm sorry about the
Heracles Goldion Beetle thing!
**[16:35] ---**
That's not what I mean!
**[16:48] ---**
I, Kaido Masaru, for the freedom
and peace of the desert people,
**[16:52] ---**
cannot afford to lose... here!
**[17:01] ---**
Amusing.
**[17:02] ---**
And interesting.
**[17:04] ---**
You appear skilled for a human,
but my objective comes first.
**[17:09] ---**
Let us square off next time.
**[17:14] ---**
Running away?!
**[17:15] ---**
Bastard!
**[17:17] ---**
It's no use!
**[17:17] ---**
Oh no! He's heading underground!
**[17:27] ---**
Simpleton!
**[17:29] ---**
Yo.
**[17:30] ---**
What a shame.
**[17:31] ---**
You've entered
my threaded barrier.
**[17:35] ---**
And the thing I forgot
was back in the truck.
**[17:40] ---**
A can of paint...
**[17:42] ---**
Amagumo!
**[17:44] ---**
Nice idea!
**[17:46] ---**
I bet he just found a paint can
while he was running away...
**[17:50] ---**
Never mind that, just shoot!
**[17:52] ---**
Yeah, yeah!
**[17:53] ---**
You got it!
**[17:57] ---**
To think we descendents of the
Dark Age could lose to mere paint...
**[18:02] ---**
However!
**[18:05] ---**
Look out!
**[18:08] ---**
T-thank you!
**[18:10] ---**
And we almost had him!
**[18:14] ---**
You're certainly a tough one...
**[18:23] ---**
What now?
**[18:31] ---**
We can't let him get underground!
**[18:35] ---**
--Crap!
--Natsuko-san and the others!
**[18:39] ---**
Look like it's "game over"!
**[18:42] ---**
It's not over just-
**[18:51] ---**
No way...
**[18:52] ---**
D-does this mean-
**[18:54] ---**
It's all over... Master...
**[19:04] ---**
That gal's good!
**[19:10] ---**
Well, so long...
**[19:11] ---**
H-he's quick to run again!
**[19:15] ---**
Master! We better run, too!
**[19:26] ---**
Hey! You find it?!
**[19:28] ---**
Nope! Not yet!
**[19:29] ---**
Eh?! The strategy meeting
was all a lie?!
**[19:34] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[19:35] ---**
It was all a feint intended to
lure out and decimate the enemy.
**[19:39] ---**
N-no way!
**[19:41] ---**
That's so mean, Natsu-ne!
**[19:44] ---**
You even used me as a decoy!
Impressive, General Kawaguchi!
**[19:54] ---**
Well, it was still her plan.
**[19:57] ---**
Shouldn't we be happy we helped with it?
**[20:00] ---**
Though you only caught one measly one...
**[20:04] ---**
That's plenty.
**[20:07] ---**
I- I found it!
**[20:09] ---**
Bastard's-
**[20:10] ---**
Is it still alive?
**[20:14] ---**
Spectacular.
**[20:16] ---**
Such an impressive trap...
**[20:19] ---**
What about the rest?
**[20:21] ---**
No luck. It's either blown up
or under the rubble.
**[20:24] ---**
I see...
**[20:26] ---**
So you concocted this big charade
**[20:28] ---**
to get their secret of immortality...
**[20:32] ---**
Kaizuka-san requested it.
**[20:35] ---**
Not that old man again!
**[20:37] ---**
At any rate, this is
a huge catch in itself.
**[20:42] ---**
Look out, Natsuko!
**[20:44] ---**
Where is he?!
**[20:47] ---**
Look!
**[20:49] ---**
T-Truly...
**[20:52] ---**
impressive...
**[20:54] ---**
shooting...
**[20:56] ---**
Master...
**[21:09] ---**
"Master"?
**[21:11] ---**
You're pretty good, for a human.
**[21:15] ---**
Hitting him from this distance-
**[21:19] ---**
Up and vanished again, huh?
**[21:24] ---**
Later!
**[21:25] ---**
Yeah, see ya!
**[21:29] ---**
Man... Talk about an exhausting job...
**[21:34] ---**
Are you all right, Taiko-san?
**[21:36] ---**
Listen, you!
**[21:39] ---**
"Winches"
**[21:39] ---**
Sand! Get some sand!
**[21:42] ---**
Get some shovels!
**[21:44] ---**
Where's the fire brigade?!
**[21:48] ---**
Hurry!
**[21:50] ---**
No!
**[21:52] ---**
What about Matsunami-san's family?!
**[21:54] ---**
It's too late!
There's no way to save 'em now!
**[21:57] ---**
No!
**[22:00] ---**
Matsunami-san...!
**[22:01] ---**
**[22:02] ---**
He asked me to make
a winch just like his...
**[22:06] ---**
Matsunami-san. Could I see it later?
**[22:10] ---**
Sure. No problem.
**[23:56] ---**
Soul Repo-Man of the Desert, Amagumo here.
**[23:59] ---**
Those who remember the
Great Kanto Desert are happy.
**[24:01] ---**
--Hey, quit runnin' the show!
--So here is the next RHG tale!
**[24:04] ---**
--There's only two episodes left! Anyways!
--So here is the next RHG tale!
**[24:06] ---**
Next episode is "Doubt and Ambition"!
**[24:08] ---**
Miss it and...
**[24:08] ---**
...the fog of war will call for Kosuna!

**[01:22] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[01:41] ---**
Matsunami-san!
**[01:48] ---**
The winch worked like a charm!
**[01:57] ---**
Just what I'd expect
from a Matsunami Custom!
**[02:05] ---**
Matsunami-san!
**[02:19] ---**
Matsunami-san!
**[02:30] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[02:32] ---**
Taiko-san...
**[02:37] ---**
"Doubt and Ambition"
**[02:40] ---**
Therefore...
**[02:42] ---**
...we'd like to hire you all
to protect our secret laboratory.
**[02:47] ---**
Laboratory?
**[02:48] ---**
Don't tell me we're gonna
be decoys again like last time...
**[02:52] ---**
Don't worry. This time it
is a genuine security detail.
**[02:57] ---**
And because it is a critical RHG site,
**[03:00] ---**
we'd like your assistance.
**[03:03] ---**
Ain't no reason to say no
when you put it like that!
**[03:07] ---**
You can count on us, Natsu-ne!
**[03:09] ---**
Koizumi-san.
**[03:12] ---**
Koizumi-san?
**[03:14] ---**
Y-yes?!
**[03:15] ---**
Can we count on you as well?
**[03:18] ---**
Eh? For what?
**[03:19] ---**
As I said, you'll be
protecting the laboratory.
**[03:23] ---**
R-right! No problem!
**[03:30] ---**
Was one hell of a fire!
**[03:32] ---**
Think it was the welding gas?
**[03:34] ---**
There was nitro lying around, too...
**[03:39] ---**
Oh, that reminds me.
I got an interesting job.
**[03:45] ---**
It was an order to make a
rocket winch just like ol' Kanta's.
**[03:53] ---**
Taiko-san!
**[03:55] ---**
Here you are!
**[04:00] ---**
Only three of Matsunami-san's
children survived,
**[04:03] ---**
but it looks like they're going
to be sold to slave traders
**[04:07] ---**
to pay for the damages
and their own medical costs...
**[04:11] ---**
I feel so bad for the kids...
**[04:13] ---**
They're lucky they didn't
get tossed into the desert...
**[04:19] ---**
What?
**[04:21] ---**
Are you all right, Taiko-san?
**[04:23] ---**
Me?
**[04:24] ---**
You don't seem in very high spirits...
**[04:29] ---**
Idiot! I never expected a dimwit
like you to worry about me!
**[04:34] ---**
I- I'm sorry!
**[04:36] ---**
So, what do you want?
**[04:37] ---**
Oh, they said we're leaving soon!
**[04:40] ---**
Got it.
**[04:43] ---**
Looks like that eager beaver
ain't here today.
**[04:46] ---**
You mean Kaido?
**[04:48] ---**
He's already got a job at the lab
guardin' old man Kaizuka.
**[04:55] ---**
What's the matter, Taiko-chan?
You don't seem too cheery...
**[05:00] ---**
Don't worry!
**[05:02] ---**
We'll be at the lab in no time
flat, just like last time!
**[05:06] ---**
That's not it...
**[05:07] ---**
What's the deal? This ain't like you.
**[05:10] ---**
Umm...
**[05:11] ---**
What do you suppose old Kaizuka
is working on at his lab?
**[05:16] ---**
Probably one of them awesome
Dark Age machine guns, you know?
**[05:21] ---**
Like maybe the legendary M134 Minigun?!
**[05:25] ---**
Get with the program.
**[05:28] ---**
Old Kaizuka made a huge fortune
off of that "Game of Life."
**[05:33] ---**
Which means...
**[05:35] ---**
Means?
**[05:36] ---**
What he's making at the lab is...
"The Game of Eccentric Destiny"!
**[05:41] ---**
That's gotta be it!
**[05:43] ---**
It's a game three times more
exciting than the "Game of Life"!
**[05:49] ---**
Let's all play it together!
**[05:53] ---**
What is this?
**[05:55] ---**
Wow!
**[05:56] ---**
W-whoa!
**[06:14] ---**
The Great Kanto Crater.
**[06:17] ---**
A giant depression born
from the tectonic activity
**[06:19] ---**
that took place
at the end of the Dark Age.
**[06:24] ---**
Around 10 kilometers in diameter
and 1000 meters below sea level...
**[06:29] ---**
Also known as "Hell's Abaddon".
**[06:33] ---**
Which makes it the perfect
location for a secret laboratory.
**[06:38] ---**
Everyone ready?!
**[06:40] ---**
Yes!
**[06:40] ---**
Leave it to us!
**[06:42] ---**
Say, did Amagumo not come this time?
**[06:45] ---**
He declined. Said this kind
of work isn't worth it...
**[06:49] ---**
What a surprise.
**[06:50] ---**
Well, let's go, everyone!
**[06:52] ---**
--Right!
**[06:52] ---**
--Right!
**[06:54] ---**
Oh, look.
**[06:56] ---**
That flat-chested girl's still at it!
**[06:59] ---**
Flat chest? Who?
**[07:02] ---**
The Sunabozu's old student.
**[07:04] ---**
Never heard of her.
**[07:05] ---**
She's no big deal.
Anyways, did word come in?
**[07:09] ---**
Yeah. The operation begins in 12 hours.
**[07:13] ---**
12 hours...
**[07:15] ---**
So that's when Flatty's
short life will come to an end.
**[07:20] ---**
Ending life without
ever having a chest...
**[07:25] ---**
Poor thing.
**[07:29] ---**
We've gone pretty far down...
**[07:32] ---**
We still not at the bottom?
**[07:37] ---**
Hey, now! You alright, Mitsuru?!
**[07:40] ---**
I- I'm fine!
**[07:42] ---**
Want us to carry some stuff?
**[07:44] ---**
No! I... want to be able
to take care of myself!
**[07:51] ---**
I see...
**[07:52] ---**
I want to be able
to take care of myself!
**[07:57] ---**
Will you get real?!
**[07:59] ---**
But I'm upset
**[08:01] ---**
I wasn't able to clean up
my own mess back there!
**[08:05] ---**
This kid's... just like I was...
**[08:09] ---**
No! That's not true!
**[08:12] ---**
Come on! Show some more effort
if you're gonna say that!
**[08:15] ---**
R-right! This is nothing at all!
**[08:20] ---**
Yeah, right.
**[08:22] ---**
I- I saw Kaido-san the other day
and realized I need to work harder...
**[08:28] ---**
Huh? If you like that eager moron so much,
**[08:32] ---**
why not be his pupil?
**[08:33] ---**
N-no! I just meant-
**[08:38] ---**
We understand, Mitsuru!
You like Taiko-chan!
**[08:42] ---**
--Eh? Eh?!
**[08:43] ---**
--Eh?!
**[08:45] ---**
Bull's-eye?!
**[08:46] ---**
G-get serious!
**[08:48] ---**
This idiot isn't any help at all
when he's most needed!
**[08:51] ---**
I- I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[08:54] ---**
Let's get a move-on.
**[08:55] ---**
What's wrong?
**[08:59] ---**
What the...?
**[09:01] ---**
Sure it ain't just a sandstorm?
**[09:04] ---**
See anything on your monitor, Taiko-chan?
**[09:10] ---**
No good. It's just too far...
**[09:14] ---**
I have a bad feeling about this.
Let's move on ahead!
**[09:17] ---**
Right!
**[09:44] ---**
Well, Tanigawa-kun?
**[09:47] ---**
Oh, Guildhead!
**[09:50] ---**
Appears to be going well.
**[09:52] ---**
The cultivation should be complete
after about two more weeks!
**[09:56] ---**
So, counting the already-completed 00 Series,
**[10:00] ---**
we'll have 18 total.
**[10:03] ---**
The 01 Series uses that data,
**[10:06] ---**
so they'll be even more powered up!
**[10:10] ---**
Still, seeing all these
Dark Age weapons lined up like this
**[10:15] ---**
isn't a pleasant sight at all...
**[10:18] ---**
Kaido-kun. I know what you want to say.
**[10:21] ---**
But if we're to topple the government
that so atrociously oppresses
**[10:25] ---**
the denizens of the Great Kanto Desert,
**[10:29] ---**
we will need these guardians' help.
**[10:32] ---**
I realize that, but...
**[10:34] ---**
We'll fight fire with fire.
**[10:37] ---**
And once all has been accomplished,
**[10:41] ---**
I, together with these guardians,
will leave the center stage of history!
**[10:47] ---**
Kaido-kun!
**[10:50] ---**
Tanigawa-kun!
**[10:52] ---**
Once I do, you'll be the leading
characters of the Great Kanto Desert!
**[10:56] ---**
Use your youthful vigor and zeal
**[10:59] ---**
to create a new Great Kanto Desert,
free of starvation and poverty!
**[11:08] ---**
Understood! Not even
a single ant will get near!
**[11:12] ---**
And I'll speed up the development
of the specialized equipment!
**[11:15] ---**
Let's go! Let's do it! Fight!
**[11:18] ---**
Yeah! All right!
**[11:23] ---**
Each and every one is
working so diligently.
**[11:30] ---**
It would've been even better
if he was alive...
**[11:35] ---**
Though I guess he wasn't the kind
to be so easily controlled...
**[11:49] ---**
So that's their laboratory?
**[11:51] ---**
I sent Ayukawa and Samesuga
to scope it out.
**[11:54] ---**
They should be reporting soon.
**[12:10] ---**
One on the east...
**[12:12] ---**
One on the west...
**[12:14] ---**
And...
**[12:16] ---**
...one human. He's giving them orders.
**[12:21] ---**
Is this when one should laugh?
**[12:24] ---**
No, it's just that both we and
they possess superhuman strength,
**[12:29] ---**
yet we're forced to
rely on humans in the end.
**[12:33] ---**
As Master might put it:
**[12:35] ---**
"You ain't never gonna be on
the front lines like that."
**[12:40] ---**
Shall we go?
**[12:42] ---**
Yes.
**[12:43] ---**
They've gotten smarter?
**[12:46] ---**
Yes.
**[12:47] ---**
Didn't you think so when you fought
the robot soldier the other day?
**[12:53] ---**
Yeah...
**[12:54] ---**
It did seem to act smarter
**[12:57] ---**
than the guy we fought half a year ago.
**[13:00] ---**
Their intelligence level
has definitely improved.
**[13:04] ---**
Come to think of it, he did
say "Master" or something...
**[13:08] ---**
So there's someone
teaching 'em how to fight?!
**[13:11] ---**
A robot master?
**[13:13] ---**
Like this?!
**[13:17] ---**
It's most likely
a vile and crafty human
**[13:20] ---**
with extensive combat experience
and an arsenal of secret techniques.
**[13:25] ---**
I think that's who's
instructing them now.
**[13:29] ---**
Vile and crafty?
**[13:32] ---**
I see. Only three in the front.
**[13:36] ---**
So the factionist scum still haven't
gotten to mass production yet...
**[13:41] ---**
I believe now is the time to strike.
**[13:44] ---**
I am of the same opinion.
**[13:46] ---**
No. We'll wait a little more.
**[13:48] ---**
But...
**[13:49] ---**
Your master says likewise.
**[13:52] ---**
It is an honor to
have you come all this way!
**[13:56] ---**
The master himself will be
taking command this time!
**[13:59] ---**
There are 12 of you!
Failure will not be tolerated!
**[14:06] ---**
Man... Not only is it hard to
walk with the rubble and debris...
**[14:11] ---**
It's hard to breathe, too...
**[14:13] ---**
Don't give up. We're almost there.
**[14:15] ---**
Anyways, Taiko-chan.
**[14:17] ---**
Yes?
**[14:17] ---**
You should really
do somethin' about that.
**[14:23] ---**
They all got... such heavy equipment...
**[14:26] ---**
but don't slow down at all...
**[14:34] ---**
Too slow!
**[14:37] ---**
Idiot! Dumbass! Nitwit! If I'd been
a bandit, you'd be dead by now!
**[14:41] ---**
I- I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[14:44] ---**
C'mon! C'mon! Strip! Strip!
**[14:46] ---**
Wearin' all this stuff like a twerp!
**[14:49] ---**
What are you doing, Taiko-san?!
**[14:50] ---**
C'mon! The TNT and C4, too!
Hand it all over!
**[14:53] ---**
It's all useless in your hands!
**[14:56] ---**
Strip down to your underwear!
**[14:59] ---**
--I'm gonna be raped!
**[15:01] ---**
--Dumbass!
**[15:03] ---**
25 bullets. One liter of water.
**[15:07] ---**
Now go back to the truck!
**[15:09] ---**
But... I...
**[15:10] ---**
Just do it!
**[15:12] ---**
Taiko-san, I like-
**[15:14] ---**
Shut it!
**[15:17] ---**
If you care so much, then make it
back alive and out of our way!
**[15:40] ---**
Sorry for the delay!
**[15:44] ---**
Oh? What happened to Mitsuru?
**[15:46] ---**
I gave that bum the bare essentials
**[15:50] ---**
and sent him back to the truck!
**[15:52] ---**
Talk about strict!
**[15:53] ---**
You bet!
**[15:54] ---**
I got no sympathy for
guys who can't wipe their own ass!
**[15:57] ---**
You sure it ain't just "tough love"?!
**[16:01] ---**
N-No!
**[16:02] ---**
Wait!
**[16:03] ---**
What's that?!
**[16:07] ---**
What the...?
**[16:09] ---**
I've never seen anything like it...
**[16:12] ---**
It's beautiful...
**[16:17] ---**
Huh?
**[16:20] ---**
What was that?
**[16:21] ---**
An explosion?
**[16:22] ---**
It's from the valley floor!
**[16:24] ---**
The lab is down there!
**[16:31] ---**
The lab is... on fire!
**[16:40] ---**
Where's the enemy?!
**[16:42] ---**
Around the other side!
**[16:43] ---**
They could have
invisibility equipment again!
**[16:46] ---**
Watch your back!
**[16:48] ---**
Natsuko-san...!
**[16:50] ---**
Isn't he-
**[16:52] ---**
No doubt about it! It's a guardian!
**[16:55] ---**
That monster you and Kanta
fought at the skeleton city?
**[17:00] ---**
There's more!
**[17:01] ---**
W-what the heck?!
**[17:03] ---**
What are surviving monsters
of the Dark Age doing here?!
**[17:10] ---**
It couldn't be! Was old man
Kaizuka's research here actually-
**[17:14] ---**
That's right.
**[17:15] ---**
He's mass-producing these guardians
to take on the robot soldiers.
**[17:21] ---**
Say what?!
**[17:23] ---**
So we were called here
to protect some monsters?!
**[17:30] ---**
Don't you understand?
**[17:31] ---**
The only way to fight those monsters
is to get monsters of our own!
**[17:37] ---**
B-but...!
**[17:42] ---**
Look out, Natsuko!
**[17:44] ---**
Heavy artillery fire!
88-millimeter class!
**[17:53] ---**
Look over there!
**[18:00] ---**
Is that...?!
**[18:02] ---**
No doubt about it!
**[18:03] ---**
I-it's the Kong!
**[18:08] ---**
Kong?
**[18:09] ---**
A hover-tank we
and Kanta once destroyed.
**[18:13] ---**
But what's it doing here?!
**[18:14] ---**
Hell if I know!
**[18:40] ---**
Shit...! Run!
**[18:45] ---**
So that's what that dust cloud
was when we went down the crater!
**[18:49] ---**
We don't stand a chance
against that monster!
**[18:52] ---**
Even if it is a Dark Age relic,
a direct hit from its cannon would be-
**[18:59] ---**
We're history if we don't do somethin'!
**[19:00] ---**
Kaizuka-san must survive!
**[19:06] ---**
Natsuko?!
**[19:08] ---**
You're just running to your death!
**[19:11] ---**
Come back, Natsuko!
**[19:13] ---**
I'm going, too!
**[19:15] ---**
T- T- Taiko-chan?!
**[19:21] ---**
Natsuko-san!
**[19:29] ---**
Natsuko-san!
**[19:35] ---**
This floor's falling apart...
**[19:38] ---**
Where's Natsuko-san?!
**[19:39] ---**
Hey! Taiko-chan!
**[19:43] ---**
Man, that sucked...
**[19:47] ---**
These... look like underground ruins...
**[19:51] ---**
So... where's Natsuko?
**[19:52] ---**
I dunno where she went...
**[20:05] ---**
T-that's-
**[20:08] ---**
A guardian?!
**[20:10] ---**
Aki-niichan!
**[20:12] ---**
S-should we just shoot it?!
**[20:20] ---**
The Kong?!
**[20:21] ---**
All the way in here?!
**[20:24] ---**
Oh, you're still alive!
**[20:27] ---**
You sure are stubborn, Flatty.
**[20:29] ---**
That voice...!
**[20:38] ---**
Asagiri Junko! Why are you-
**[20:43] ---**
Sorry! I made an agreement with him.
**[20:46] ---**
I'm here to kill old man Kaizuka
**[20:50] ---**
and all the members of this lab!
**[20:52] ---**
"Him"?
**[20:53] ---**
Bitch!
**[20:55] ---**
Like hell you will!
**[20:59] ---**
What the...?!
**[21:00] ---**
Where'd the shots come from?!
**[21:01] ---**
W-who's there?! Who's there?!
**[21:07] ---**
B- Bro...!
**[21:08] ---**
What?
**[21:13] ---**
What?!
**[21:14] ---**
W-when did they-
**[21:16] ---**
W-w-we're surrounded!
**[21:22] ---**
You see? Now why don't you
drop the guns and surrender?!
**[21:28] ---**
B- Bro...!
**[21:32] ---**
No!
**[21:37] ---**
What the...?!
**[21:38] ---**
Don't tell me they're-
**[21:46] ---**
Balloons?
**[21:47] ---**
How did you know, Taiko-chan?!
**[21:50] ---**
Their feet.
**[21:51] ---**
Their feet?
**[21:53] ---**
They were standing on weak concrete,
**[21:55] ---**
but there were no cracks at their feet.
**[22:00] ---**
Nice assessment of the situation, Kosuna.
**[22:04] ---**
I guess you've matured a bit
**[22:07] ---**
if you could see through my balloons.
**[22:10] ---**
That voice...!
**[22:14] ---**
I-it can't be!
**[22:20] ---**
This is the perfect time...
**[22:21] ---**
"TO BE CONCLUDED NEXT EPISODE"
**[22:22] ---**
...to end this episode!
**[22:24] ---**
**[23:55] ---**
--Ghost of the Desert, Sunabozu here!
--Skilled Beauty Kosuna here!
**[23:57] ---**
Master! Why are you showing up now?
**[23:59] ---**
Moron! I'll always be the main character!
**[24:02] ---**
No fair! This is the final preview, too!
**[24:03] ---**
--Which is why I'm doing it!
--No, me!
**[24:05] ---**
--Anyways, the next episode
--Anyways, the next episode
**[24:06] ---**
--is the final chapter!
--is the final chapter!
**[24:07] ---**
--"Taiko and...
--...Kanta"!
**[24:07] ---**
Miss it and you'll have
to catch it on stage!
**[24:09] ---**
No way!

**[00:04] ---**
I-It can't be!
**[00:06] ---**
You're...!
**[00:23] ---**
Hey! Get back here!
**[00:25] ---**
B- Bro...!
**[00:26] ---**
B- Brother...!
**[00:28] ---**
Retreat for now!
**[00:30] ---**
Oh, no, you don't!
**[00:32] ---**
Was that--
**[00:42] ---**
Damn!
**[00:44] ---**
Ow...
**[00:45] ---**
Taiko-*chan*! Behind you!
**[00:52] ---**
Could well be the precursor
**[00:56] ---**
to something terrible about to happen!
**[01:01] ---**
I'm hungry...
**[01:26] ---**
"Sunabouzu - Desert Punk"
**[01:30] ---**
"Taiko and Kanta"
**[01:37] ---**
Taiko-chan!
**[01:40] ---**
What?!
**[01:46] ---**
Master...
**[01:52] ---**
Listen, Kosuna!
**[01:54] ---**
The situation you're currently placed in!
**[01:56] ---**
The strength difference
between you and your enemy!
**[01:59] ---**
What you can do and what you must do!
**[02:03] ---**
Assess it all instantly!
**[02:07] ---**
Time to die!
**[02:08] ---**
The situation I'm in!
**[02:14] ---**
The strength difference between me...
and my enemy!
**[02:19] ---**
Crap!
**[02:22] ---**
Y-you did it!
**[02:28] ---**
Huh?!
**[02:31] ---**
This is all I can do!
**[02:33] ---**
I'm going to look for Natsuko-san now!
**[02:36] ---**
So the rest is all yours!
**[02:38] ---**
A-all ours?
**[02:40] ---**
She's the Sunabozu's pupil, all right.
So we're decoys, huh?
**[02:45] ---**
Alright! Akio! Haruo!
**[02:48] ---**
It's time to show 'em what the
Machine Gun Brothers are made of!
**[02:52] ---**
--Yeah!
**[02:52] ---**
--Yeah!
**[03:15] ---**
General Kawaguchi?
**[03:17] ---**
Guildhead!
**[03:18] ---**
What is this?
**[03:20] ---**
W-We're too late...
**[03:22] ---**
The key sections of the facility
have been completely destroyed!
**[03:27] ---**
We're done for!
**[03:29] ---**
The collateral explosions
activated the Dark Age... keepsake...
**[03:34] ---**
Keepsake?
**[03:35] ---**
A super-tectonic weapon.
**[03:37] ---**
The demonic invention responsible
for this enormous crater.
**[03:41] ---**
Then that light in the sky was-
**[03:43] ---**
An omen before its activation!
**[03:45] ---**
Then we have to escape!
**[03:47] ---**
Yes, but...
**[03:49] ---**
Pathetic! Just pathetic!
This is not my only laboratory!
**[03:53] ---**
But the intruders
must be properly punished!
**[03:57] ---**
Guildhead! What on earth are you-
**[04:00] ---**
Isn't it obvious?
**[04:01] ---**
I'm speeding up the weapon's activation
and slaughtering them all!
**[04:07] ---**
Please stop, Guildhead!
That'll kill us too!
**[04:11] ---**
An escape route has been secured.
Don't fret.
**[04:14] ---**
But...!
**[04:24] ---**
Be quiet.
**[04:25] ---**
Kaizuka-san...?
**[04:28] ---**
Little shits think they can
stomp all over my lofty goal!
**[04:33] ---**
They'll pay! They'll pay!
**[04:36] ---**
So the old crackpot's nice-guy mask
has finally come off...
**[04:47] ---**
You came, boy!
**[04:48] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:21] ---**
Matsunami-san...
**[05:33] ---**
W-we can't hold it off anymore!
**[05:35] ---**
Damn it!
**[05:36] ---**
I don't like it, but looks like
we gotta copy that bastard!
**[05:42] ---**
Copy? You don't mean...!
**[05:48] ---**
Where... am I?
**[06:00] ---**
Crawling all over the place!
Just like a cute little piggy!
**[06:04] ---**
When did you-
**[06:10] ---**
Not bad!
**[06:14] ---**
I don't got time to play
with big-busted broads like you!
**[06:18] ---**
After I went through
the trouble of chasing you?!
**[06:20] ---**
That's not very nice, Flatty!
**[06:25] ---**
Finally giving in, huh?
**[06:31] ---**
Howdya like this?!
**[06:37] ---**
It can't be!
**[06:38] ---**
Yep! It sure is!
**[06:42] ---**
The same attack the
Sunabozu used back then!
**[06:46] ---**
W-what...?!
**[06:49] ---**
--Yes!
**[06:49] ---**
--Yes!
**[06:57] ---**
Too bad!
**[06:59] ---**
Looks like you're still
no match at all for me!
**[07:03] ---**
Which means that the Great Kanto Desert's
most skilled babe...
**[07:07] ---**
...is me!
**[07:18] ---**
Now die.
**[07:25] ---**
H-hey! Who the hell?!
**[07:29] ---**
Say hello to Amagumo!
**[07:31] ---**
Amagumo?!
**[07:32] ---**
Yes. Also known as
the "Repo-Man of Souls".
**[07:36] ---**
You're already in my threaded web...
**[07:41] ---**
There is no escape from it...
**[07:43] ---**
Hey! Taiko-chan!
**[07:46] ---**
Where are you?!
**[07:47] ---**
Oh, geez. The Kong got beaten? Sheesh!
**[07:52] ---**
Don't move!
**[07:53] ---**
No can do.
**[07:54] ---**
F-fool! I said don't move!
**[07:57] ---**
I can't die here!
**[07:59] ---**
Look out!
**[08:18] ---**
Looks like you've matured a little...
**[08:20] ---**
S-shut up! This isn't-
**[08:23] ---**
Do you want to see him?
**[08:26] ---**
Go.
**[08:27] ---**
B-but...!
**[08:29] ---**
I said go, damn it!
**[08:34] ---**
As if this busty broad...
**[08:36] ---**
would ever die... from your bullets!
**[08:44] ---**
H-h-hey! W-what do I-
**[09:03] ---**
That lousy flatty.
There'll be no next time, though!
**[09:07] ---**
My shoulders are stiff! That's what
I get for being out of practice!
**[09:12] ---**
Kan-chan! Sorry!
**[09:19] ---**
Those eyes haven't changed at all.
With that cold glare...
**[09:24] ---**
They're just like mine
when I was young...
**[09:26] ---**
Hearin' that doesn't make me any happier.
**[09:30] ---**
Such a rude mouth...
**[09:31] ---**
Sorry, Kaizuka-san.
**[09:33] ---**
But now you die.
**[09:35] ---**
What?!
**[09:37] ---**
And why is that?
**[09:39] ---**
Because you're a huge liar.
**[09:42] ---**
You say it's for the
sake of the desert people...
**[09:45] ---**
But you just want full reign
over the desert for yourself, dontcha?
**[09:50] ---**
T-that's not true! He truly does
care for the future of the people!
**[09:55] ---**
Yeah! Unlike you!
**[09:58] ---**
I said don't move.
**[10:01] ---**
He said it himself.
**[10:03] ---**
He's the only one he gives a damn about.
**[10:06] ---**
So, then...
**[10:08] ---**
What will you do once you kill me?
**[10:11] ---**
Dunno. What will I do?
**[10:13] ---**
Going to make a
Boob Kingdom or something?
**[10:21] ---**
Mizuno Kanta!
**[10:23] ---**
It looks like leaving you alive
was a mistake after all!
**[10:26] ---**
Give it up.
**[10:27] ---**
It's true that Kaizuka-san
might only care about himself!
**[10:31] ---**
G- General Kawaguchi?!
**[10:33] ---**
But...!
**[10:34] ---**
He's hundreds of times better
than you and your disregard
**[10:37] ---**
for the unfortunate people around you!
**[10:43] ---**
Can't believe you fell
for such an old trick!
**[10:47] ---**
Not even Kosuna falls for it anymore!
**[10:51] ---**
Hey.
**[10:53] ---**
Human as you are,
do not waste your life.
**[10:56] ---**
When did he-
**[10:57] ---**
An invisibility suit!
**[10:59] ---**
Now, then. Let's end this circus.
**[11:02] ---**
You'll all die, too.
**[11:04] ---**
Nah, not me.
**[11:07] ---**
Then give it a shot.
**[11:08] ---**
Sure!
**[11:10] ---**
Natsuko!
**[11:11] ---**
Where are you?!
**[11:14] ---**
There she is!
**[11:16] ---**
Guys!
**[11:16] ---**
Freakin' Kanta's here, too!
**[11:19] ---**
Doesn't matter! Just shoot!
**[11:23] ---**
Damn Junko screwed up!
**[11:25] ---**
There's no escape!
**[11:26] ---**
Hey, Samesuga! Back me up!
**[11:29] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[11:40] ---**
Master!
**[11:48] ---**
Well, I guess guns don't work...
**[11:56] ---**
You alright, Natsuko?!
**[11:58] ---**
I'm fine! But there's no time!
We have to escape!
**[12:02] ---**
--Right!
- -Right!
**[12:09] ---**
Master...
**[12:43] ---**
It's all clear!
**[12:44] ---**
Alright! Let's haul ass before it blows!
**[12:56] ---**
So everyone's finally here.
**[13:06] ---**
Master...
**[13:09] ---**
Master!
**[13:11] ---**
Yo.
**[13:12] ---**
I finally-
**[13:17] ---**
It's those ones from-
**[13:19] ---**
Shit!
**[13:21] ---**
Brother!
**[13:23] ---**
This time, they ain't balloons.
**[13:25] ---**
Kanta! You bastard!
**[13:29] ---**
This is the best you can do?
**[13:31] ---**
You game?!
**[13:32] ---**
We're screwed as it is! Let's do it!
**[13:35] ---**
W-wait!
**[13:45] ---**
What about him?!
**[13:47] ---**
They're all yours!
**[13:52] ---**
Forget him. He's just a small-fry.
**[14:00] ---**
Master...
**[14:03] ---**
You were captured? You see, I-
**[14:07] ---**
I always felt I owed you my life,
**[14:11] ---**
and I figured you made yourself
a decoy then so we could escape...
**[14:17] ---**
I wanted to ask you so much
if I ever saw you again...
**[14:20] ---**
I still screw up jobs all the time...
**[14:22] ---**
I should've just done what you
taught me when I was with you,
**[14:26] ---**
but it's hard to act
and think on my own, so-
**[14:28] ---**
Not quite.
**[14:30] ---**
My plan to use you as a decoy
to escape didn't work out so well...
**[14:36] ---**
Though I did manage to get to
my current position 'cause of that.
**[14:42] ---**
I... decided to work for this side.
**[14:48] ---**
So you sold us out
to suck up to the enemy.
**[14:51] ---**
The war?
**[14:53] ---**
I'm sure you've sensed it.
**[14:54] ---**
A struggle's going on at the border.
**[14:57] ---**
RHG or factionist army or whatever,
**[14:59] ---**
this is no time to get mixed up
with a bunch of nobodies.
**[15:02] ---**
So you're using the merit of my disposal
to rise up the military ranks.
**[15:09] ---**
It's a war. Anything is possible.
**[15:17] ---**
You're using this crisis to
hijack the Oasis, aren't you?
**[15:22] ---**
Yeah...
**[15:30] ---**
Taiko-san...
**[15:40] ---**
I'm sorry for
involving you all in this!
**[15:43] ---**
Idiot! Don't apologize!
**[15:45] ---**
Yeah! We're happy
we could fight with you!
**[15:49] ---**
We're with you all the way,
even in Hell!
**[15:52] ---**
Guys!
**[15:53] ---**
Taiko.
**[15:55] ---**
Yes?!
**[15:56] ---**
It's still not too late
for you to join me.
**[15:59] ---**
It does look like
you're somewhat useful now...
**[16:08] ---**
It's a war!
**[16:10] ---**
You can use this chance
to become anything at all!
**[16:13] ---**
Even the Kanto's most skilled chick...
**[16:22] ---**
Master.
**[16:25] ---**
Was it you who had
Matsunami-san's shop set on fire?
**[16:37] ---**
Oh. That?
**[16:45] ---**
I couldn't have word I was alive
get out and people track me down...
**[16:55] ---**
What I did to Matsunami-san was horrible.
**[17:06] ---**
What are you doing?!
**[17:08] ---**
You still haven't disposed of Kaizuka!
**[17:11] ---**
Mitsuru!
**[17:12] ---**
Yeah, alright.
**[17:13] ---**
You good-for-nothing!
**[17:14] ---**
Quit your damn sleepin'
and do your Hulkosis!
**[17:17] ---**
--Don't move!
**[17:17] ---**
--Garbage!
**[17:18] ---**
Scum!
**[17:25] ---**
You bastard. I'm gonna
kick your ass again!
**[17:31] ---**
Taiko! You-
**[17:33] ---**
Where's your winch?!
**[17:45] ---**
He still hasn't gotten over it?!
**[17:47] ---**
H- Huron!
**[17:49] ---**
Now!
**[17:52] ---**
Taiko! You-
**[17:54] ---**
Matsunami Customs can
be used this way, too!
**[18:11] ---**
Taiko! You used the winch
as a detonator?!
**[18:15] ---**
What do you think?!
**[18:18] ---**
Let's scram while we can!
**[18:20] ---**
B-but how?!
**[18:22] ---**
We're toast if we don't hurry!
**[18:27] ---**
Here comes Savior of the
Great Kanto Desert, Amagumo!
**[18:32] ---**
Now!
**[18:33] ---**
Let's haul ass, bastards!
**[18:36] ---**
--Y-yeah...
**[18:36] ---**
--Y-yeah...
**[18:45] ---**
Get the hell in!
**[18:48] ---**
Damn! They prepared a countermeasure!
**[18:52] ---**
But I can't tell if these guys
are useful or useless...
**[18:55] ---**
Master!
**[19:14] ---**
I'm... not going with you.
**[19:19] ---**
Then we're enemies from now on.
**[19:30] ---**
Y-you're... a girl?!
**[19:34] ---**
Who're you?!
**[19:35] ---**
I saved the Sunabozu!
**[19:38] ---**
I beg you! Please make me your pupil!
**[19:40] ---**
Being a handyman is a hardcore job!
**[19:44] ---**
Moron! Why'd you shoot?!
**[19:45] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[19:46] ---**
Master! Let's quit! We'll be cursed!
**[19:50] ---**
I don't want this! I want a Magnum!
**[19:53] ---**
I'd just be a burden on my master.
**[19:57] ---**
Damn kid!
**[19:58] ---**
Master!
**[19:59] ---**
Master...!
**[20:00] ---**
Master...
**[20:01] ---**
Master! Master...! Master! Master!
**[20:12] ---**
Let's scram, Mitsuru!
**[20:15] ---**
The other part of me says I'm stupid.
**[20:18] ---**
That it'd be much better
to go with my master.
**[20:22] ---**
It's no real surprise
that he betrayed us...
**[20:26] ---**
Plus, he always used to belittle me,
**[20:29] ---**
but he says I'm useful now!
**[20:32] ---**
But if I go with him,
**[20:35] ---**
I'll just be the same goldfish dung
I was half a year ago.
**[20:38] ---**
I'll never be the Great Kanto Desert's
most skilled beauty like that!
**[20:57] ---**
Let's get goin'.
**[20:58] ---**
It is time.
**[20:59] ---**
Eh?!
**[21:01] ---**
It was then it happened.
**[21:06] ---**
It's said to have lit up the Great
Kanto Desert like the afternoon sun...
**[21:30] ---**
The Great Kanto Desert.
**[21:32] ---**
The temperature exceeds 50 degrees
Celsius in the afternoon,
**[21:35] ---**
and plummets below freezing at night.
**[21:40] ---**
Here lied the ruins of a
civilization whose transgressions
**[21:40] ---**
Here lied the ruins of a
civilization whose transgressions
**[21:42] ---**
brought about its downfall
centuries prior.
**[21:45] ---**
One could even say they were
grave-posts for those who died here.
**[21:50] ---**
In this hellish desert, man,
the most violent and powerful creature
**[21:56] ---**
in the history of the earth...
**[22:57] ---**
Yo! "Come" again!
**[23:07] ---**
...continued to thrive, bursting with
as much avarice as ever it did.
