"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*
**[02:30] ---**
"Sniping and Footsteps"
**[02:45] ---**
The latest personal rocket winch!
**[02:48] ---**
The latest miniature, lightweight cooler!
**[02:51] ---**
A brand new Type Zero Helmet and
high-composite carbon sunshade!
**[02:55] ---**
With aramid cover!
**[02:57] ---**
Reinforced aramid cape!
**[02:59] ---**
Aramid knickerbockers! Aramid leggings!
**[03:03] ---**
My Winchester, back from the shop!
**[03:07] ---**
Tube magazine extension, allowing
for one extra shot per load!
**[03:13] ---**
The Sunabouzu...
**[03:15] ---**
"Back in Action!"
**[03:15] ---**
...is back! With brand-new equipment!
**[03:19] ---**
"Brand New!!"
**[03:23] ---**
And...! And...! And...! And...!
**[03:26] ---**
Tadah! An M40A1 sniper rifle!
**[03:30] ---**
Atkinson stainless steel heavy barrel!
**[03:33] ---**
Unertl 10x scope sight!
**[03:36] ---**
Remington trigger set with a
trigger pull of 1.8 kilograms!
**[03:44] ---**
So beautiful...!
**[03:46] ---**
At last you're mine, my darling M40A1-chan!
**[03:53] ---**
I'm finally in the black
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"
**[22:40] ---**
*One circle... Two circles...*
**[22:48] ---**
*One more big circle...*
**[22:52] ---**
*A billowing raincoat...
(It's a cape!)*
**[22:56] ---**
*Oh, let's not forget
the sunshade now...*
**[23:01] ---**
*(His heart is pitch black!
His heart is pitch black!)*
**[23:07] ---**
*Give him a Winchester and
suddenly you have Sunabouzu!*
**[23:23] ---**
*He'll run again
today! (Run again)*
**[23:26] ---**
*Through the desert!
(Even if forced to do jobs)*
**[23:30] ---**
*He'll go forth again tomorrow!
(Go forth again)*
**[23:34] ---**
*(Until he gets the Boobie Lady)*
**[23:36] ---**
*(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!
