    For every app, there's a monster:
[00:23] ---
    App Monsters!
[00:25] ---
    Your future is already searched!
SIGN    Previously on Appmon:
[00:31] ---
    I'm Shinkai Haru,
    a first year in middle school.
[00:33] ---
    One day, I obtained an App Drive
[00:35] ---
    and met the search
    app monster Gatchmon,
[00:37] ---
    who has the power to get
    perfect search results!
[00:40] ---
    We've gotten mixed up in a few incidents
    with virus-infected Appmon since.
[00:44] ---
    The one behind it is the
    big boss AI, Leviathan.
[00:49] ---
    To unlock the power
    we need to fight him,
[00:51] ---
    we're searching for the seven
    Seven Code Appmon.
[00:54] ---
    Then one day,
[00:55] ---
    I learned there were
    App Drivers besides me!
[00:58] ---
    The first is Karan Eri-san
    of the idol group Appliyama 470!
[01:04] (Flashback) ---
    I'm gonna give your
    heart a Big Bang punch!
[01:07] (Flashback) ---
    Because I'm the center of the universe,
[01:10] (Flashback) ---
    the elite Karan Eri!
[01:13] ---
    And now I learned that the popular
    elementary school AppTuber, Astora,
[01:17] ---
    aka Asuka Torajiro
    was also an App Driver.
[01:20] (Flashback) ---
    Groovy?
[01:21] (Flashback) ---
    Not groovy?
[01:22] (Flashback) ---
    So groovy!
SIGN    Takanodai Elementary School
[01:32] boy
    I saw your AppTube
    broadcast yesterday!
[01:36] boy
    Astora's...
[01:37] boy
    Groovy?
[01:38] boy
    Not groovy?
[01:39] boy
    So groovy!
[01:42] boy
    "I tried sitting in front of my favorite food,
    the salt daifuku, for 30 minutes without drooling!"
[01:47] boy
    I didn't think you could do it!
[01:50] boy
    Yeah!
[01:51] ---
    Though it came out of your eyes
    instead of your mouth, I guess...
[01:54] boy
    It was so impressive!
[01:56] tora
    Natch!
[01:58] tora
    I gotta always be riding my groove,
[02:00] ---
    or the people watching will think it's...
[02:02] tora
    Groovy?
[02:03] tora
    Not groovy?
[02:04] tora
    So not groovy!
[02:05] tora
    Not!
[02:06] girl
    I can't wait until that TV special!
[02:09] girl
    The one hosted by Karan
    Eri-chan from Appliyama 470!
[02:13] girl
    "Let's find the real story behind
    that famous AppTuber!"
[02:17] girl
    That's a special about you,
    right, Astora-kun?
[02:19] tora
    Nobody mentioned it to me...
[02:21] boy
    It's gotta be you, Astora!
[02:23] tora
    Y-Yeah, sure...
[02:25] girl
    I'm gonna watch it!
[02:27] girl
    Me too!
[02:27] tora
    It's from Haru...
[02:30] tora
    He wants to introduce me to
    Karan Eri of Appliyama 470?!
[02:35] tora
    I knew it!
[02:37] tora
    I guess there aren't many
    AppTubers as groovy as me.
[02:42] tora
    Guess you can get
    your hopes up, okay?
SIGN    I'm gonna get the whole world more and more into my personal groove!

[02:51] ---
    App-based life forms
    with artificial intelligence,
[02:55] ---
    capable of thinking
    and acting on their own.
[02:57] ---
    In the real world,
[02:58] ---
    they take the form of Appmon chips,
[03:00] ---
    but an App Drive can give
    them physical form.
[03:06] ---
    And now,
[03:08] ---
    a terrible AI lurking deep in the
    dark web is beginning to stir.
[03:14] ---
    In the year 2045,
[03:17] ---
    artificial intelligence will
    transcend human intelligence.

    the elite Karan Eri!
[04:59] ---
    Although...
[05:00] ---
    does this little kid really
    have an App Drive, Haru?
[05:04] haru
    Yeah,
[05:05] ---
    he's our fellow App Driver, Astora-kun!
[05:08] haru
    And as you know, she's...
[05:10] tora
    I don't know much about
    this Appliyama thing,
[05:13] tora
    but nobody confuses groove king
    AppTuber Astora with "some little kid."
[05:21] tora
    You groovy?
[05:22] tora
    Not groovy?
[05:23] tora
    Not at all in the groove.
[05:25] eri
    Huh? But I'm in this groove right here.
[05:27] eri
    If you don't start making sense,
[05:29] eri
    I'll hit you with a battleaxe-shouldered
    Big Bang punch!
[05:31] gatch
    This is a real pain in the neck.
[05:34] haru
    Especially since we need to work
    together to fight Leviathan...
[05:39] tora
    So, where's the film crew?
[05:41] tora
    Huh?
[05:42] haru
    Astora-kun, you're amazing!
[05:43] haru
    Are you gonna have a TV special?
[05:45] tora
    Well, it's only natural that an ultra-groovy
    AppTuber like me would get a special or two—
[05:50] eri
    It's not on you, though?
[05:53] musi
    If it's not Astora, who is it?
[05:55] eri
    Here.
[05:56] sei
    Hi there. I'm Sayjiro!

    does things you've always
    dreamed about doing but can't!

    I'll search for more info!

    Let's see...
SIGN    Sayjiro
[06:07] gatch
    "Fearless AppTuber Sayjiro uses his
    unstoppable energy to take on daring challenges.
[06:13] gatch
    He's only just come on the scene,
[06:17] ---
    but he's already beating
    Astora in views."
[06:19] sei
    Today's challenge:
[06:20] ---
    I tried on all the clothing from a famous brand
    store that caters to famous Hollywood actors!
[06:28] musi
    I didn't hear any music
    of the heart from those videos.
[06:32] tora
    You said it!
[06:33] tora
    Yeah!
[06:34] tora
    I'm gonna show him what
    a real challenge is!
[06:38] tora
    I made up my own app workout
    program and did it!
[06:42] tora
    Let's try it!
[06:54] tora
    Yeah!
[06:56] tora
    Man, I was riding that groove!
[06:58] musi
    You'll get the most likes
    ever for that one, I bet!
[07:01] musi
    Yeah!
[07:02] ---
    Having money's not enough
    to make you a great AppTuber—
[07:09] musi
    Don't let it get you down, Astora.
[07:12] musi
    That challenge we just did was
    inscribed in our playlist...
[07:17] tora
    I'm gonna broadcast another one.
[07:20] musi
    But, you promised your
    dad you'd only do one per day...
[07:23] tora
    I can't let that guy beat me!
[07:25] musi
    Astora...
[07:28] eri
    Huh?
[07:29] eri
    If he thinks lightweight videos like
    these are enough to get on my show,
[07:32] eri
    he needs a Big Bang
    punch back to reality.
[07:35] eri
    Yeah, yeah!
[07:36] haru
    The videos I saw from him earlier
    were a lot groovier than that.
[07:39] haru
    Why don't we drop in on Astora-kun?
[07:42] eri
    Well, I suppose I don't
    mind going with you...
[07:47] musi
    Four seconds to roll!
[07:48] haru
    Astora-kun!
[07:48] musi
    Three!
[07:50] haru
    Hush!
[07:52] tora
    For today's second Groovy?
    Not Groovy?
So Groovy! show...
[07:56] tora
    I decided to see if I can down a whole
    drink using chikuwa as a straw!
[07:59] tora
    Let's try it!
[08:23] haru
    You're amazing, Astora-kun!
[08:25] musi
    Right?
[08:26] gatch
    For certain values of the word...
[08:28] eri
    Perhaps I'll grant him a small
    corner of my universe.
[08:33] eri
    But I still feel like I should
    make him stand in the hall...
[08:37] doka
    That's weird.
[08:38] doka
    That challenge was so impressive, but...
[08:42] haru
    How come?
[08:45] musi
    Like I said, don't let it—
[08:47] musi
    Darn it!
[08:48] musi
    Astora-kun!
[08:49] gatch
    Haru!
[08:50] gatch
    Look at this!
[08:52] haru
    What happened?
[08:54] haru
    So all these bad reviews are because...
[08:57] gatch
    Yeah,
[08:58] ---
    we should probably
    look deeper into this.
[09:01] sei
    I decided to sing an Appliyama 470 song
    backed by the world's most famous orchestra!
[09:08] tora
    He's even got his grubby
    hands on music challenges,
[09:10] tora
    the foundation I built
    my AppTube channel on!
[09:13] tora
    Is he picking a fight or something?
[09:15] tora
    Astora...
[09:16] tora
    Well, you're on!
[09:18] tora
    You may have a world-famous
    orchestra, but I have...
[09:25] tora
    Farts.
[09:26] tora
    Fart music would get everyone
    riding the groove!
[09:30] tora
    Riding my groove!
[09:31] tora
    What I need are the ultimate sweet potatoes
    that'll get my butt trumpet blaring out loud!
[09:37] tora
    And,
[09:38] ---
    with the ultimate recording
    app catching every toot from my soul,
[09:45] tora
    I'd have a fart symphony!
[09:47] tora
    A fart fortissimo!
[09:58] tora
    Who are you?
[10:00] reco
    I am the recording
    app Appmon, Recomon.
[10:04] tora
    Recomon?
[10:06] reco
    I will help you to record your fart
    music at the highest sound quality
[10:10] ---
    and send it out to the world!
[10:15] tora
    I found it!
[10:17] ---
    The ultimate app!
[10:21] musi
    Hot, hot, hot!
[10:25] tora
    This'll score me tons of likes!
[10:30] musa
    The Astora I know would usually
    never defile music with farts.
[10:35] tora
    If I beat him,
[10:37] ---
    I'll get called on for the TV special!
[10:39] tora
    They'll all say I'm
    the ultimate AppTuber!
[10:45] musi
    Is that what you want?
[10:50] musi
    Are farts really something you,
    yourself, can groove to?
[10:57] tora
    I...
[11:06] tora
    I'm... riding the groove.
[11:09] tora
    You are riding the groove indeed.
[11:12] tora
    I'm totally groovy!
[11:14] tora
    You are totally groovy indeed.
[11:23] musi
    There's no room on my
    playlist for your farts.
[11:31] tora
    Then I'll do it myself!
[11:33] tora
    And I'll get tons and tons of likes!
[11:47] tora
    Why won't he understand?
[12:04] tora
    That was the fourth movement of classic
    symphony #4, performed with farts!
[12:11] girl
    Was Astora always like this?
[12:13] girl
    I think Astora's out of ideas.
[12:15] girl
    Who's swapping the video broadcasts?
[12:18] girl
    Talk about lame.
[12:19] girl
    Astora's finished.
[12:20] girl
    Sooner than expected.
[12:22] girl
    Nah, he was never that good.
[12:23] say
    I tried being chef-for-a-day at a
    famous Daikanyama Italian restaurant,
[12:29] ---
    where you need to get reservations
    six months in advance!
[12:31] kid
    Sayjiro's where it's at right now.
[12:33] kid
    You said it!
[12:37] tora
    Next,
[12:38] ---
    I could use my remaining sweet potatoes
    to try to gather up pigeons and fly...
[12:42] tora
    Or...
[12:43] ---
    to raise Mt. Fuji up
    into the atmosphere...
[12:47] tora
    If I act like Sayjiro...
[12:50] ---
    they'll say I'm a groovy AppTuber again.
[12:56] tora
    Maybe I'll try being a chef at Dad's
    favorite sushi restaurant, Sukiyabashi.
[13:03] title
    Dad could get me that
    if I asked, I'm sure...
[13:09] tora
    This is okay, right?
[13:11] tora
    This is okay, indeed.
[13:14] tora
    It'll get everyone riding
    my groove, right?
[13:17] rec
    It will get everyone riding
    your groove, indeed.

    You meeting me!
[13:38] (Flashback) musi
    That wasn't a coincidence!
[13:39] (Flashback) musi
    When we're together,
    things always get intense!
[13:42] (Flashback) musi
    In the groove or out of it,
    how you live is up to you!
[13:44] (Flashback) musi
    Listen to your heart,
    and then you can do it too!
[13:46] (Flashback) musi
    Yeah, yeah!
[13:47] (Flashback) musi
    We did it!
[13:51] (Flashback) musi
    We were so riding
    the groove just then!
[13:53] (Flashback) musi
    Of course we were!
[13:55] (Flashback) musi
    Because that was the sincere
    music of your heart!
[13:59] (Flashback) tora
    So lame.
[14:01] (Flashback) tora
    Everyone's giving it thumbs down...
[14:04] (Flashback) tora
    But hey,
[14:05] ---
    who cares about what
    other people think?
[14:14] gatch
    Where'd he go?

    Yo! Yo!

    When we're together, I never feel low!

    So this busted-up
    factory's still here, huh?

    Yeah, it's still here.
[14:37] musi
    The place where we did our first
    AppTube broadcast.
[14:44] tora
    At first,
[14:46] ---
    I felt too embarrassed to
    broadcast from the mansion.
[14:50] tora
    Remember how I slipped out,
[14:52] ---
    heart pounding, like I was doing
    something really bad?
[14:57] tora
    It's not about anyone else.
[14:59] tora
    It's about whether I'm riding
    my own groove or not, right?
[15:03] tora
    I'm sorry.
[15:05] tora
    I forgot something important.
[15:11] tora
    Will you still be my buddy Appmon?
[15:17] tora
    No Astora, no life!
[15:21] tora
    No Musimon, no life!

    connects the two of you
