SIGN    Previously on Appmon:
[00:31] ---
    I'm Shinkai Haru, a second
    year in middle school.
[00:34] ---
    One day, I obtained an App Drive
[00:36] ---
    and met the search
    app monster Gatchmon,
[00:38] ---
    who has the power to get
    perfect search results!
[00:42] ---
    Rei-kun's been searching for his
    little brother Hajime-kun all this time.
[00:46] (Flashback) fb
    Hajime.
[00:47] (Flashback) fb
    Where are you now?
[00:49] (Flashback) fb
    Your little brother...
[00:51] (Flashback) fb
    He's trapped inside L-Corp,
[00:53] (Flashback) ---
    in the form of an Appmon.
[00:56] fb
    At last, he has a clue about

SIGN    L-Corp CEO Unryuji Knight Removed
[01:09] news
    We've just received
    word that Unryuji Knight,
[01:12] ---
    CEO of global conglomerate L-Corp,
    has been relieved of his post.
[01:16] sign
    Mr. Knight received renown for having been
    appointed CEO at the young age of 16,
[01:19] sign
    so the lightning-speed removal
    is sending shockwaves across the world.
[01:26] all
    Knight-sama!
[01:29] man
    Well, it certainly is a shock.
[01:31] woman
    Yes.
[01:32] woman
    As for who his successor will be,
[01:36] woman
    it seems that an artificial intelligence
    will take the position.
[01:40] man
    Is that the kind of
    age we're living in now?
[01:43] woman
    Yes.
[01:44] woman
    And the name of that
    artificial intelligence is...
SIGN    "Leviathan"
[01:47] woman
    Leviathan!
[01:50] haru
    Leviathan?
[01:52] gatch
    No way!
[01:53] yu
    He's finally coming
    out from the wings, eh?
[01:56] off
    I'm scared!
[01:58] woman
    L-Corp is also producing
    Appliyama 470,
SIGN    History's first AI-produced Idols
[02:03] woman
    which means that Appliyama 470
[02:05] ---
    will be the first idols produced
    by an artificial intelligence.
[02:10] man
    I see.
[02:11] man
    Incidentally, I'm a
    big fan of Izumi-chan...
[02:16] tora
    Eri?
[02:17] doka
    What's the matter?
[02:18] eri
    I'm quitting Appliyama 470.
[02:23] doka
    Eri-chan, you can't!
[02:26] yu
    Is it because Leviathan's become the CEO?
[02:29] eri
    I've been thinking about this for a while.
[02:31] eri
    Once I learned that Leviathan
    was connected to L-Corp,
[02:35] ---
    I wasn't sure if it was okay
    for me to stay with Appliyama.
[02:39] eri
    But, now that Leviathan is the CEO...
[02:43] ---
    I can't possibly stay with them.
[02:46] doka
    No way!
[02:47] ---
    I don't want you to quit!
[02:51] eri
    I'll go back to being an idol some
    day, just in a different way.
[02:54] doka
    Really?
[02:55] eri
    Yeah.
[02:56] eri
    I haven't come this far just to give up.
[03:00] rei
    Don't give up just yet.
[03:04] haru

    they take the form of Appmon chips,

    but an App Drive can give
    them physical form.
[03:29] ---
    And now,
[03:31] ---
    a terrible AI lurking deep in the
    dark web is beginning to stir.
[03:37] ---

    This is about Hajime-kun, right?
[06:19] (Flashback) rei
    I'm going to infiltrate
    L-Corp to find Hajime.
[06:23] (Flashback) hack
    But it won't be easy.
[06:26] (Flashback) hack
    We infiltrated it once before,
[06:29] (Flashback) hack
    but it's the kind of place where
    the same tricks won't work twice.
[06:32] (Flashback) rei
    That's why I need your help.
[06:34] (Flashback) eri
    What do you want me to do?
[06:37] (Flashback) rei
    I'm going to become a manager
    for Appliyama 470.
[06:41] (Flashback) haru
    You, Rei-kun?
[06:43] (Flashback) tora
    So unlikely!
[06:44] (Flashback) eri
    It's less "unlikely"
    and more "impossible."
[06:47] (Flashback) rei
    We can do it.
[06:48] (Flashback) rei
    I'll just be posing as a manager.
[06:50] (Flashback) rei
    With a manager's ID,
[06:52] (Flashback) ---
    I can enter L-Corp,
[06:53] (Flashback) ---
    and move around it freely.
[06:55] (Flashback) hack
    I'll modify the data on the ID.
[06:59] (Flashback) rei
    If I want to save Hajime,
[07:00] (Flashback) ---

    Your little brother was turned
    into an Appmon, wasn't he?
[07:11] (Flashback) rei
    No matter what he looks like now,
[07:13] (Flashback) ---
    Hajime is still Hajime.
[07:14] (Flashback) rei
    He's my precious little brother.
[07:17] (Flashback) rei
    I will never give up on him.
[07:26] (Flashback) eri
    Okay.

    But how are you gonna identify him?
[07:30] (Flashback) gatch
    Even if you meet him,
[07:31] (Flashback) ---
    you might not recognize him, right?
[07:34] (Flashback) hack
    I have Hajime's DNA data.
[07:37] (Flashback) hack
    I can determine his identity immediately
    through a comparison against that.
[07:39] (Flashback) yu
    I see.
[07:40] (Flashback) yu
    That should do it, then.
[07:44] (Flashback) rei
    I'm counting on you.
