[00:01] Minami
    Thousands of years have passed since all
    of humanity was mysteriously petrified.
[00:07] Minami
    Those of us who revived into the
    primitive, post-apocalyptic world
[00:11] Minami
    worked diligently to rebuild
    science from scratch.
[00:15] Minami
    We finally reached the milestone of building
    a ship that would take us across the Pacific.
[00:25] Minami
    To those hearing this
    recording, nice to meet you.
[00:29] Minami
    I am reporter Hokutozai Minami.
[00:31] Minami
    I leave this record for posterity.
[00:34] Minami
    We are on our way to discovering the secret
    behind the petrification of humanity.
[00:38] Minami
    Our destination is the
    enemy's home base: the moon!
[00:44] Minami
    This is a big project that will take us
    from the stone age to building a spaceship.
[00:48] Minami
    We'll gather materials from all over
    the world, starting in the Americas.
[00:53] Minami
    Let's ask the crew what they have to say!
SIGN    Strongest Primate High Schooler
[00:59] Tsukasa
    Once we revive all of humanity,
    there will be those who misuse firearms,
[01:04] Tsukasa
    and those who gain power
    and try to exploit others.
[01:08] Tsukasa
    I won't let them do that.
[01:10] Tsukasa
    I won't let them taint the
    hands of science with blood.
[01:14] Tsukasa
    My task now is to make sure of that.
[01:16] Minami
    Tsuka-san!
[01:18] Gen
    The Americas, huh?
SIGN    Shallow Mentalist
[01:20] Gen
    I used to live there for,
    like, ten billion years.
[01:22] Gen
    The girls overseas are pretty cute, too.
[01:25] Gen
    Also, the Statue of Liberty might still
    be there, since it's made of copper.
[01:29] Gen
    Not that I'd know.
[01:30] Gen
    Sorries.
[01:31] Minami
    Could you be a little more serious?!
[01:34] Suika
    I got to get on the boat for
    doing a good job on the island!
SIGN    Great Detective Girl
[01:38] Suika
    I'm gonna make myself useful this time!
[01:41] Minami
    I've only ever seen you be nothing but useful.
SIGN    God-tier Craftsman
[01:46] Kaseki
    My dear recorder!
[01:48] Kaseki
    Are you recording?
[01:49] Kaseki
    Are you recording right now?
SIGN    Inspired Science User
[01:51] Chrome
    We're carving sound into an urushi
    lacquer-coated wood cylinder.
[01:54] Chrome
    It carves really well and catches everything!
[01:57] Chrome
    Well? What do you think of
    my insanely inspired idea?
[01:59] Minami
    No, I'm asking about what
    you think of our departure.
[02:03] Kirisame
    I'm simply following the duty I
    was given to follow your orders.
SIGN    Uptight Thrower Specialist
[02:08] Minami
    You're so stiff.
[02:09] Minami
    Do you have any personal feelings or anything?
[02:13] Minami
    I know!
[02:14] Minami
    You and Kinro might get along well,
    since you're both so uptight.
[02:17] Minami
    Well? What do you think?
[02:18] Kirisame
    I don't concern myself with such things!
[02:20] Kinro
    Kirisame?
SIGN    Uptight Spear Specialist
[02:22] Kinro
    Yeah, she's quite skilled.
[02:24] Kinro
    We'll need to keep up!
[02:26] Kinro
    We must train harder!
[02:28] Kinro
    And yet, look at Ginro!
[02:31] Kinro
    What would have become of him if Matsukaze
    hadn't been taking care of him?
SIGN    Warrior of Revenge
[02:35] Matsukaze
    Taking care of Ginro-dono?
[02:37] Matsukaze
    No, I merely served as his legs for a while.
[02:40] Matsukaze
    I haven't done anything of particular note.
[02:42] Ginro
    Yeah, my legs...
[02:45] Ginro
    They suddenly started hurting like
    hell right before our departure.
[02:48] Ginro
    Man, what should I do?
[02:49] Ginro
    I definitely don't want—not to get on a
    ship going so far, but I don't think I can.
SIGN    Scumbag Warrior
[02:55] Ginro
    That's when Matsukaze had to be all,
    "Master!" and brought me on board.
[03:03] Ginro
    I'm so glad!
[03:06] Ginro
    I hate this!
[03:07] Ginro
    I'm gonna die of boredom!
[03:09] Ukyo
    Only when the weather's nice.
[03:11] Ginro
    How much longer is it going to take?!
[03:19] Ginro
    I hate this!
[03:20] Ginro
    Now I'm so busy, I'm gonna die!
[03:23] Ukyo
    Yeah, during a storm.
[03:25] Ginro
    How much longer is it going to take?!
SIGN    Leader of the Ship
[05:06] Ryusui
    Seventy days.
[05:07] Senku
    Forty days!
SIGN    Leader of Science
[05:12] Suika
    O-Oh, no!
[05:14] Suika
    This is bad!
[05:16] Suika
    Senku and Ryusui are...
[05:18] Chrome
    Oh, shit, they're arguing up there.
[05:20] Taiju
    What?!
[05:23] Taiju
    Fighting is bad!
[05:27] Ryusui
    Fighting?
[05:28] Ryusui
    No, this is a discussion.
[05:30] Taiju
    A diss?
[05:31] Taiju
    You were dissing each other?
[05:34] Senku
    Yeah, that's about right, meathead.
[05:36] Senku
    We're fighting.
[05:37] Taiju
    Fighting is bad!
[05:42] Gen
    Crazy ability to learn.
[05:47] Ukyo
    You're talking about the route to the US, huh?
[05:50] Senku
    That's why you used to be a submariner.
[05:52] Senku
    You just get it.
[05:54] Ryusui
    We departed from Tokyo.
[05:56] Kohaku
    And our destination?
[05:57] Taiju
    The US, right?
[05:59] Senku
    Yup.
[06:00] Senku
    Right here.
[06:03] Senku
    What's the quickest route to San Francisco?
[06:06] Taiju
    Straight, like this, right?
[06:10] Suika
    Even I know that.
[06:12] Chrome
    Hang on, that's too easy.
[06:15] Chrome
    This has to be a trick question.
[06:18] Ryusui
    Good answer!
[06:19] Ryusui
    That's called the rhumb line, where you go
    in the same direction for the whole route.
SIGN    Rhumb Line
[06:25] Ryusui
    It makes navigation easy, and it's how ships
    have been doing it throughout most of history.
[06:30] Ryusui
    We're spending 70 days on that route to the US.
SIGN    70 Days to the US
[06:32] Chrome
    Whoa, nailed it!
[06:34] Senku
    Wrong!
[06:36] Senku
    Time for the happy right answer reveal.
[06:39] Senku
    The shortest route would be...
[06:42] Senku
    this!
[06:43] Taiju
    How?!
[06:44] Taiju
    That'll obviously take longer!
[06:46] Senku
    A picture's worth a thousand words.
[06:48] Senku
    Try comparing it for yourself on that globe.
[06:56] Chrome
    Go for it.
[07:08] Taiju
    The route that looked further on
    the map is actually a lot shorter!
[07:11] Kohaku
    You're right!
[07:12] Senku
    That's what happens when it's a sphere.
[07:14] Senku
    That's the actual shortest distance.
SIGN    Great circle route
[07:17] Senku
    The great circle route.
[07:19] Kohaku
    We're using this shortcut
    to get to the US in 40 days.
SIGN    40 Days to the US
[07:24] Ryusui
    Seventy days! We're taking the rhumb line!
[07:27] Ryusui
    The great circle route would have us steering
    constantly depending on our position.
[07:31] Ryusui
    It's the max difficulty route!
[07:33] Ryusui
    The stress on the crew isn't even comparable!
[07:35] Chrome
    Forty days! Great circle route!
[07:38] Chrome
    We're a ship of science!
[07:40] Chrome
    As janky as it is, we have
    our great lord the GPS!
[07:43] Chrome
    We can ten billion percent stay on course!
[07:46] Gen
    Chill!
[07:48] Ginro
    It's super scary seeing our top two duke it out!
[07:52] Ryusui
    They may have had some training,
    but we're a band of newbie sailors.
[07:56] Ryusui
    I guarantee you we'll go down!
[07:57] Ryusui
    You aren't crossing the
    Pacific on armchair idealism!
[08:00] Ryusui
    Seventy days, absolute minimum!
[08:02] Ryusui
    I'm telling you, as a sailor, what's realistic.
[08:05] Ryusui
    Am I wrong?
[08:06] Senku
    We won't make it in time
    for the yellow dent corn.
[08:11] Senku
    We'll barely make it by fall
    if we arrive in 40 days.
[08:15] Senku
    That's as late as we can be
    if we're making revival fluid.
[08:19] Senku
    Dick around for 70 days,
    and winter will be too late.
[08:24] Senku
    We'll be losing a whole year
    of our insanely precious time.
[08:28] Senku
    Forty days is absolute.
[08:30] Senku
    I'm laying out the logic as a science user.
[08:33] Senku
    Am I wrong?
[08:40] Chrome
    It kinda sounds like they're both right.
[08:43] Ukyo
    Yeah.
[08:45] Ukyo
    Ryusui, who's being unwaveringly
    realistic for the sake of our crew,
[08:49] Ukyo
    and Senku, who's being unwaveringly
    rational for the sake of the future.
[08:52] Ukyo
    There is no right answer here.
[08:57] Gen
    If they're both right, I think
    I'm with Ryusui-chan on this one.
[09:02] Gen
    I can't stand arduous work.
[09:06] Kohaku
    I support Senku.
[09:08] Kohaku
    We need to get there as soon as we can.
[09:11] Gen
    Of course you'd say that, Kohaku-chan.
[09:13] Gen
    You're always the immediate action type.
[09:17] Ryusui
    Double the ration distribution for the crew.
[09:20] Senku
    Yeah, that's the answer.
[09:22] Francois
    That'll halve our maximum voyage time.
[09:25] Francois
    Are you sure?
[09:26] Senku
    We'll be fine as long as we get there earlier.
SIGN    70 Days to the US
[09:30] Ryusui
    We'll subtract ten days from our trip.
SIGN    60 Days to the US
[09:32] Ryusui
    No more than that.
[09:33] Ryusui
    Any more, and I will step
    in for the sake of our crew.
[09:38] Ryusui
    Senku, I'll have to fight you.
[09:41] Senku
    Forty days.
[09:42] Senku
    That's our time limit.
[09:48] Senku; Ryusui
    Guess we'll have to do it!
[09:50] Suika
    Th-This is getting bad!
[09:53] Chrome
    Senku and Ryusui...
[09:54] Ginro
    ...are dueling?!
[10:09] Yuzuriha
    This is the duel?
[10:10] Nikki
    A game of poker?
[10:14] Senku
    Why'd you have to go all-out
    on the outfit? Dumbass.
[10:18] Ryusui
    Why else?
[10:20] Ryusui
    To let the gallery know
    that this is a formal game.
[10:24] Ryusui
    That'll make sure everyone
    follows the victor's wishes.
[10:27] Ryusui
    And I'm sure to win, because...
[10:31] Gen
    Hi, Senku-chan.
[10:33] Gen
    Sowwy, I'm on Team Ryusui-chan this time.
[10:39] Senku
    Are you serious?!
[10:40] Senku
    This dude's ten billion percent going to cheat!
[10:43] Senku
    You fraud mentalist!
[10:45] Gen
    That's nasty.
[10:48] Ryusui
    Everyone's free to have a seat.
[10:50] Ryusui
    Am I wrong?
[10:51] Kohaku
    Oh, dear.
[10:53] Kohaku
    The opponent is tag teaming.
[10:56] Kohaku
    You wouldn't mind me teaming
    up with Senku, then, would you?
[11:00] Senku
    We're counting on your dynamic
    visual acuity here, Kohaku.
[11:04] Senku
    Keep a good eye on Gen's sleights of hand.
[11:12] Minami
    With the route to the US up for grabs,
    the leader of the sea, Ryusui-kun,
[11:16] Minami
    and the leader of science,
    Senku-kun, are competing!
[11:20] Chrome
    I don't know about this one...
[11:22] Nikki
    There's no telling who's going to win.
[11:26] Yo
    Let's take bets!
[11:28] Yo
    My money's on Ryusui!
[11:30] Yo
    Gen's on his side!
[11:31] Yo
    There's no getting by his cheating!
[11:33] Suika
    I dunno, but Ryusui seems like a better gamer.
[11:38] Taiju
    Senku would never lose in a mind battle!
SIGN    Team Senku
SIGN    Team Ryusui
[11:41] Ginro
    You guys don't know how
    well Kohaku-chan can see!
[11:44] Minami
    You're enjoying this, aren't you?!
[11:46] Minami
    Your lives are on the line here!
[11:50] Ukyo
    Well, let's start, then.
[11:53] Ukyo
    I'll deal the first five cards.
[11:57] Ukyo
    We'll take turns dealing each round.
[12:00] Ukyo
    Shall we choose the first dealer
    with a game of rock-paper-scissors?
[12:03] Senku
    Okay.
[12:04] Senku
    First comes rock.
[12:06] Senku
    Rock-paper-scissors.
[12:07] Gen
    My bad, I didn't want to get in the
    way of the rock-paper-scissors.
[12:11] Gen
    I can't believe I did that.
[12:15] Kohaku
    Oh, that's odd.
[12:17] Kohaku
    It appeared as though you
    were carrying those cards.
[12:23] Kohaku
    I'll admit that I jumped the gun if the
    first card isn't the ace of hearts.
[12:37] Gen
    What's this?
[12:39] Gen
    What a surprise!
[12:40] Gen
    It totally is the ace of hearts!
[12:42] Gen
    What a coinky-dink!
[12:44] Kohaku
    Don't let this lanky bastard touch the cards!
[12:47] Gen
    That's harsh!
[12:50] Ryusui
    Raise.
[12:51] Senku
    Call.
[12:53] Senku
    Full house.
[12:55] Ryusui
    Three-of-a-kind.
[13:00] Senku
    Straight.
[13:02] Ryusui
    Flush!
[13:03] Chrome
    They're neck-and-neck so far.
[13:06] Suika
    Ryusui has a few more chips, though.
[13:12] Ryusui
    Raise.
[13:13] Minami
    He's raising the stakes dramatically.
[13:16] Minami
    Will Senku-kun accept?
[13:20] Senku
    Ryusui's so self-assured, I have
    no idea if he's bluffing or not.
[13:30] Senku
    I call.
[13:40] Kohaku
    You sprinkled something onto the deck.
[13:44] Senku
    Sugar, maybe?
[13:46] Senku
    He could be trying to make
    the card move less evenly.
[13:49] Gen
    But, but... I never touched the card!
[13:52] Kohaku
    No placing your hand over the cards, either!
[13:55] Gen
    Yes, ma'am.
[14:01] Senku
    Ah, so that's what that was.
[14:03] Senku
    Kohaku, check Gen's sleeve.
[14:08] Taiju
    A kanabun beetle?!
[14:09] Yuzuriha
    How are you supposed to cheat with that?
[14:11] Senku
    Its antennae react to the
    card with the sugar on it.
[14:16] Kohaku
    Just how sketchy do you have to be?!
[14:18] Gen
    I'm out of tricks!
[14:20] Gen
    I haven't done anything! I swear!
[14:22] Gen
    You can check all the cards
    if you have any doubts.
[14:26] Gen
    Each and every card.
[14:29] Gen
    Carefully.
[14:39] Senku
    Everyone's eyes, including mine and
    Kohaku's, are on the deck right now!
[14:45] Ryusui
    I raise to the max!
[14:47] Minami
    Ryusui-kun has bet even more chips!
[14:50] Minami
    Is this to be his finishing blow?
[14:54] Kohaku
    Ryusui's hand changed direction
    in that brief moment.
[14:59] Kohaku
    Hasn't it?!
[15:02] Kohaku
    You switched his hand, didn't you, Gen?!
[15:05] Gen
    That's an awful accusation.
[15:07] Senku
    You diverted everyone's attention
    using the bug and the card check.
[15:12] Senku
    Basic magic.
[15:16] Senku
    I should have known, Gen.
[15:18] Senku
    You seemed unusually careless there.
[15:22] Senku
    You let your opponent have a
    comfy win with the easy trick,
[15:24] Senku
    had everyone focus on the deck,
    and swapped four of his cards.
[15:30] Senku
    So all that prep was to pull off this one move.
[15:37] Ukyo
    If he's been setting it up this whole time,
    all four of them have to be aces,
[15:42] Ukyo
    the four strongest cards!
[15:46] Nikki
    The only way Senku can win
    now is with a straight flush.
[15:51] Nikki
    There's no way!
[16:03] Senku
    The second card from the top.
[16:06] Senku
    The second card from the bottom.
[16:10] Ukyo
    Senku, you're going to have to fold.
[16:12] Senku
    All right, then.
[16:18] Senku
    I'm all-in, too.
[16:30] Minami
    He's all-in!
[16:32] Minami
    He's betting all of his chips!
[16:35] Ryusui
    But why?
[16:38] Gen
    Diverting everyone's attention...
[16:41] Gen
    Basic magic!
[16:42] Kohaku
    All right, we'll...
[16:44] Kohaku
    draw three cards.
[16:46] Gen
    Too fast!
[16:47] Gen
    Did you really take from the top of the deck?!
[16:51] Kohaku
    Of course. What a nasty accusation.
[16:55] Tsukasa
    She took cards from the middle of the deck.
[16:58] Gen
    Why would they do that, though?
[17:00] Gen
    They can't even see which cards they were.
[17:04] Gen
    I don't see anything that could be a mark.
[17:09] Ryusui
    So it could be entirely a bluff.
[17:16] Ryusui
    You amuse me!
[17:18] Ryusui
    Very well, let's settle it now!
[17:20] Ryusui
    We're both all-in!
[17:21] Minami
    It's on!
[17:25] Ryusui
    Four-of-a-kind!
[17:33] Senku
    Royal straight flush.
[17:36] Gen
    What?!
[17:39] Senku
    All the chips are mine! I win!
[17:45] Ukyo
    There are five aces.
[17:47] Ukyo
    I guess that doesn't even matter anymore, huh?
[17:50] Gen
    H-H-How?!
[17:52] Gen
    I have no idea how they did it!
[17:54] Gen
    I don't see a mark anywhere!
[17:56] Senku
    Of course you don't.
[17:58] Senku
    The mark of science is
    transparent and colorless.
[18:02] Senku
    Urushiol.
[18:04] Senku
    There happened to be some urushi
    lacquer lying around, so I took some.
[18:09] Senku
    I've been looking for key cards from the
    beginning and rubbing the lacquer into the edges.
[18:15] Minami
    Urushi just happened to be lying around?
[18:18] (Flashback) Chrome
    We coated it with urushi
    lacquer so it records better!
[18:22] Suika
    How could anyone see that
    urushi-whatever if it's transparent?
[18:27] Suika
    How come Senku could tell?
[18:32] Gen
    Oh, of course...
[18:34] Gen
    Senku-chan has super urushi-sensitive skin.
[18:39] Ukyo
    The winner: Senku!
[18:43] Gen
    You're risking your life too much for a bet.
[18:46] Senku
    We're taking the great circle
    route across the Pacific Ocean.
[18:50] Senku
    It's ten billion percent harder.
[18:52] Senku
    We'll coordinate with Ruri
    and the others back home
[18:55] Senku
    and GPS our way across Earth.
    It's the shortcut of science.
[19:00] Ginro
    Jackpot!
[19:02] Yo
    I blew nearly all my wealth!
[19:05] Yo
    Damn it!
[19:07] Yo
    One more!
[19:08] Yo
    I'm winning it all back with the next one!
[19:10] Yo
    Let's do one more!
[19:11] Kohaku
    We're obviously not doing that.
[19:13] Ryusui
    Very well!
[19:14] Yuzuriha; Nikki
    Really?
[19:16] Ryusui
    On one condition.
[19:18] Ryusui
    We're doing it here!
SIGN    Whoaaa
[19:35] Senku
    As luck would have it, you got
    that casino you've always wanted.
[19:42] Ryusui
    Leisure is a perfectly valid part of strategy.
[19:45] Ryusui
    We're shaving a whole 30 days off our trip.
[19:49] Ryusui
    We'll have to make up for it by improving
    conditions on the ship for the crew.
SIGN    70 Days to the US
[19:52] Ryusui
    We lose ten days with increased food.
SIGN    60 Days to the US
[19:55] Ryusui
    Another ten with leisure facilities.
SIGN    50 Days to the US
[19:58] Ryusui
    I want one more thing to make
    up for the last ten days.
[20:04] Kohaku
    After food and leisure,
    all that's left is drinks.
[20:13] Suika
    They're setting up a new shop here.
[20:17] Suika
    "Bar François"...
[20:19] Yo
    A bar? Do you mean...
[20:23] Yo
    Booze?!
[20:44] Kohaku
    Let's rejuvenate ourselves, all!

    Beer
    acquired!!
[20:46] Yo
    Cheers!
[20:54] All
    More!
[20:57] Ukyo
    So that makes up the last ten days.
[21:01] Ukyo
    Everything worked out the way Senku wanted.
[21:03] Ukyo
    It's a little too perfect, don't you think?
[21:07] Ukyo
    The poker battle made the casino a huge success.
[21:10] Ukyo
    It's a benefit package that
    includes a bar to boot.
[21:13] Ukyo
    We'll survive a harsh route just fine now.
[21:16] Ukyo
    Even if it was Ryusui who won,
    it might have ended up the same.
[21:22] Ukyo
    In other words, it was all a set-up,
    starting with Ryusui and Senku fighting.
[21:28] Ukyo
    The whole thing might have been
    theater, choreographed by a mentalist.
[21:34] Ukyo
    How's that for a fun conspiracy theory?
[21:38] Gen
    What the heck are you talking about, Ukyo-chan?
[21:41] Gen
    You're reading way too much into it.
[21:43] Gen
    Though...
[21:45] Gen
    I will say one thing.
[21:47] Gen
    The poker game was super legit.
[21:53] Gen
    That's one thing I'm still bummed about.
[21:57] Gen
    Just a little.
[21:59] Gen
    Senku-chan.
SIGN    50 Days to the US
SIGN    40 Days to the US
[22:02] Senku
