**[00:01] Villager A**
Riot!
**[00:08] Senku**
Science's own suppression
device: chloroacetone.
**[00:12] Senku**
Basically, it's tear gas.
**[00:15] Senku**
This'll calm you down!
**[00:25] Amaryllis**
Wow...
**[00:26] Amaryllis**
Sorcery?
**[00:28] Amaryllis**
Who are you people?
**[00:30] Kohaku**
We want to be as quick as we can to save
the people on the ship who were petrified.
**[00:37] Amaryllis**
I...
**[00:40] Amaryllis**
I know the secret of the petrification beam.
**[00:44] Amaryllis**
I want your help.
**[00:46] Amaryllis**
Please fight alongside me!

Aboard the Science Vessel
***SIGN*** Five Years Ago
***SIGN*** Amaryllis, Age 13
**[02:37] (Flashback) Man A**
Amaryllis!
**[02:38] (Flashback) Man A**
Hurry up and get on!
**[02:42] (Flashback) Amaryllis (young)**
Are we really going?
**[02:43] (Flashback) Amaryllis (young)**
Beyond the ocean?
**[02:44] (Flashback) Amaryllis (young)**
Is that really safe?
**[02:46] (Flashback) Man B**
You're so proper.
**[02:47] (Flashback) Woman A**
Let me guess. It's the old farts again.
**[02:50] (Flashback) Woman A**
"Don't leave the island!"
**[02:51] (Flashback) Woman A**
"Don't make new things!"
**[02:52] (Flashback) Woman A**
"The Master will use the sorcery he
inherited to turn you into stone!"
**[02:57] (Flashback) Woman B**
That's so annoying.
**[02:59] (Flashback) Woman A**
Who cares about some stupid master?
**[03:02] (Flashback) Woman A**
Come on, let's go.
**[03:04] (Flashback) Men**
All right, let's go!
**[03:27] (Flashback) Man A**
Crap... The two tops are here.
**[03:30] (Flashback) Woman A**
Huh? What's your problem?
**[03:31] (Flashback) Man A**
Row! Quick!
**[03:32] (Flashback) Man A**
Run!
**[03:33] (Flashback) Woman A**
Hey, there's a boat coming after us.
**[03:35] (Flashback) Man A**
You don't know?!
**[03:37] (Flashback) Man A**
It's the Master's right hand and left hand!
**[03:40] (Flashback) Man A**
Look at you, all panicked. Lawl.
**[03:42] (Flashback) Man A**
It's not funny!
**[03:45] (Flashback) Man A**
They're the strongest people around!
**[03:47] (Flashback) Man A**
Moz and Kirisame!
**[03:54] (Flashback) Moz**
What a shame.
**[03:56] (Flashback) Moz**
What a total shame.
**[03:58] (Flashback) Moz**
They're pretty cute.
**[03:59] (Flashback) Moz**
Especially that girl peeking out at the end.
**[04:03] (Flashback) Moz**
She's still a kid, but I can see it.
**[04:07] (Flashback) Moz**
She's gonna be gorgeous in five years.
**[04:11] (Flashback) Kirisame**
You can have your little beauty contest
at your inner palace selection event.
**[04:14] (Flashback) Kirisame**
We have a simple task ahead of us.
**[04:19] (Flashback) Moz**
Then let me ask you, Kirisame-chan...
**[04:21] (Flashback) Moz**
What is there to life besides
squeezing cute girls?
**[04:26] (Flashback) Kirisame**
You're disgusting.
**[04:28] (Flashback) Kirisame**
Not that I didn't know.
**[04:31] (Flashback) Moz**
That's a pretty low trajectory.
**[04:33] (Flashback) Moz**
One head higher.
**[04:36] (Flashback) Kirisame**
Understood.
**[04:51] (Flashback) Woman A**
What is that light?
**[04:53] (Flashback) Woman A**
I'm sorry, Amaryllis...
**[04:55] (Flashback) Woman A**
We shouldn't have forced you...
**[04:57] (Flashback) Man A**
The men are shields!
**[04:58] (Flashback) Man A**
Amaryllis is the youngest!
Send her farthest back!
**[05:10] Gen**
That just triggered some really bad trauma.
**[05:14] Gen**
Is that light what I think it is?
**[05:16] Senku**
Yeah. The one from thousands of years ago.
**[05:19] Senku**
I'd never forget.
**[05:20] Senku**
It's the same kind of thing.
**[05:23] Senku**
Although the scales differ.
**[05:26] Kohaku**
But Amaryllis, several years
later, you're still alive.
**[05:32] Kohaku**
How were you saved?
**[05:50] (Flashback) Kirisame**
Everyone's been successfully petrified.
**[06:04] Amaryllis (young)**
*The light stopped right in front of me?*
**[06:22] Amaryllis**
It's said that the petrification ability
**[06:23] Amaryllis**
is sorcery passed down throughout
the Master's family.
**[06:27] Amaryllis**
But I've seen it.
**[06:28] Amaryllis**
The Master wasn't on the boat.
**[06:32] Senku**
So his goons tossed some kind of weapon.
**[06:37] Amaryllis**
There's nothing we can do when the Master
himself has the petrification ability.
**[06:41] Amaryllis**
We've always had to do as he wanted.
**[06:43] Amaryllis**
But...
**[06:45] Amaryllis**
If the petrification is a weapon,
we only need to steal it.
**[06:48] Amaryllis**
So I... well...
**[06:50] Amaryllis**
I was hoping you could lend me a hand.
**[06:54] Amaryllis**
I know we only just met today...
**[06:58] Amaryllis**
But you're so mighty,
I can't help but depend on you.
**[07:02] Amaryllis**
I'm sorry.
**[07:07] Senku**
You can stop doing that now.
**[07:10] Amaryllis**
*It didn't work?! I was afraid of that!*
**[07:12] Senku**
Don't sweat it. We have compatible goals.
**[07:15] Senku**
We're here to take the source of the
petrification for ourselves, after all.
**[07:20] Senku**
If the petrification was
some kind of fantasy thing
**[07:23] Senku**
that wasn't bound by any kind of rules,
**[07:26] Senku**
humanity never would have stood a chance.
**[07:28] Senku**
But Amaryllis, you've made
a few things clear to me.
**[07:33] Senku**
First, at the very least,
there's a limited area of effect.
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 50 0 l 50 220 l 0 220
***SIGN*** Limited
area
of
effect
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 50 0 l 50 180 l 0 180
***SIGN*** Used
by
throwing
**[07:38] Senku**
Two, it's used by being thrown.
**[07:40] Senku**
In other words, the user
could be petrified, as well.
**[07:42] Senku**
Three, you can stop the petrification
chain reaction by cutting it off.
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 80 0 l 80 250 l 0 250
***SIGN*** You can
stop the
petrification
chain
reaction
by
cutting
it off
**[07:47] Senku**
There are rules there.
**[07:50] Senku**
If it has rules, it's science.
**[07:54] Senku**
And if it's a science battle, we can't lose.
**[07:58] Gen**
I'm sure of that.
**[08:01] Kohaku**
Amaryllis, you said this Master would
be coming tomorrow, did you not?
**[08:05] Amaryllis**
Yes.
**[08:07] Amaryllis**
Every year, he comes to each village to
choose beautiful girls over eighteen to wed.
**[08:13] Amaryllis**
Though, by "choose," he really means force.
**[08:15] Amaryllis**
Even if they're married.
**[08:18] Amaryllis**
I'm *really* cute, so I'm going to be
chosen tomorrow and get taken away.
**[08:22] Gen**
I don't know about saying so yourself...
**[08:25] Gen**
I mean, not that I doubt it, though.
**[08:27] Amaryllis**
That's why I've been working
on myself this whole time,
**[08:30] Amaryllis**
so I can save the others.
**[08:32] Amaryllis**
Once I get inside the inner palace,
**[08:34] Amaryllis**
I'll have an opportunity to
take the petrification beam.
**[08:38] Kohaku**
Though, even if you can enthrall the men,
**[08:41] Kohaku**
the one with the petrification beam
was Kirisame, a female warrior, no?
**[08:46] Gen**
You might have to take someone
with you who can fight.
**[08:50] Amaryllis**
But where am I going to
find a girl who can fight
**[08:54] Amaryllis**
and who can come into the
inner palace with me?
**[09:00] Kohaku**
Ah! Of course!
**[09:02] Kohaku**
I just need to be chosen in this
so-called "cuteness selection."
**[09:12] Kohaku**
I just need to be chosen as a cute one!
***SIGN*** I just need to be chosen as a cute one!
***SIGN*** Ehhh?!
***SIGN*** Ehhh?!
**[09:20] Senku**
It's true, Kohaku.
**[09:22] Senku**
You're the only one who can
accomplish this mission.
**[09:26] Senku**
Don't worry about looks.
***SIGN*** Chief of Science
**[09:28] Senku**
We can take care of that easily with science.
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 80 0 l 80 260 l 0 260
***SIGN*** Chief
of
Psychology
**[09:32] Gen**
You're right about that.
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 55 0 l 55 265 l 0 265
***SIGN*** Chief
of
Makeup
***SIGN*** m 0 0 l 210 0 l 210 90 l 0 90
***SIGN*** Schpoof
Tester
**[09:35] Amaryllis**
Allow me to do the makeup.
**[09:38] Gen**
Time for the great
Kohaku-chan Beautification Mod!
**[09:42] Gen**
Attraction is science!
**[09:45] Amaryllis**
Let's start with your dress.
**[09:47] Amaryllis**
I think your outfit's cute as it is,
but it's not quite the type
**[09:51] Amaryllis**
that'll get you chosen for the inner palace.
**[09:57] Amaryllis**
You're getting changed right here?!
**[10:00] Kohaku**
Oh, these men?
**[10:03] Kohaku**
I'm sure they don't mind at all.
**[10:06] Senku**
I don't mind, but stop acting like that.
**[10:08] Senku**
That's the first thing to work on.
**[10:10] Senku**
Our mission is to get you
to win a beauty contest.
**[10:14] Gen**
It'll take some practice to make sure
you don't make a fool of yourself.
**[10:19] Kohaku**
It's not uncomfortable...
**[10:21] Kohaku**
But it's hard to move in.
**[10:26] Kohaku**
Leg moves will be especially difficult.
**[10:28] Gen**
*That's* what I'm talking about!
**[10:30] Kohaku**
There.
**[10:31] Gen**
Again, *that's* what I mean!
**[10:33] Amaryllis**
I don't think you'll need your
weapon and shield with your dress.
**[10:36] Soyuz**
Why'd you put them on so casually?
**[10:38] Gen**
I guess your clothes are good enough, but...
**[10:40] Gen**
This is where the real problems start!
**[10:43] Gen**
Operation Science Makeup!
**[10:45] Senku**
About that...
**[10:47] Senku**
There isn't much more I can do
with just the tools I have on me.
**[10:54] Senku**
We're definitely going to need the lab.
**[10:58] Senku**
Science is our trump card.
**[11:00] Senku**
Our only advantage.
**[11:03] Senku**
If we can get the lab, we can
put up a fight on this island.
**[11:15] Amaryllis**
That's the boat you took?
**[11:17] Amaryllis**
I've never seen one so big.
**[11:21] Kohaku**
The enemy's taken it over, though.
**[11:24] Senku**
Of course they have.
**[11:25] Senku**
They aren't total, utter, complete idiots.
**[11:33] Kohaku**
Everyone...
**[11:37] Gen**
I get how you feel, but you
seriously can't just go charging in!
**[11:48] Kohaku**
Is that ridiculously huge
old dude the Master?
**[11:52] Amaryllis**
No.
**[11:53] Amaryllis**
The Master is younger.
**[11:55] Amaryllis**
That's Minister Ibara.
**[11:57] Amaryllis**
He gives out orders based
on what the Master wants.
**[12:02] Amaryllis**
He's the other leader of the island.
**[12:05] Ibara**
I like it. I like it very much.
**[12:08] Ibara**
You did good, Kirisame-kun.
**[12:12] Ibara**
What a fantastic boat!
**[12:14] Ibara**
I'm sure the Master will be delighted
to see it in his own hands, intact!
**[12:20] Kirisame**
But Ibara-sama, the facilities on this
ship are far beyond our comprehension.
**[12:26] Kirisame**
I fear that it's a kind of sorcery
by those who've left the island.
**[12:30] Kirisame**
I suggest destroying it immediately.
**[12:31] Ibara**
Wait just a minute, Kirisame-kun.
**[12:35] Ibara**
Are you trying to give me your opinion?
**[12:37] Ibara**
It's the Master's decision, is it not?
**[12:40] Kirisame**
No, that's correct.
**[12:44] Ibara**
I like the outfits, too.
**[12:46] Ibara**
Let's fix them up and put them
on the girls in the inner palace.
**[12:49] Ibara**
Can't take these clothes
off with this pose, though.
**[12:52] Ibara**
Time to break you apart, mister statue!
**[12:59] Kohaku**
Don't worry.
**[13:00] Kohaku**
I won't do anything to ruin our mission.
**[13:06] Kohaku**
* Someone might have survived in*
* the ship without being petrified.*
**[13:10] Kohaku**
* In which case, I can get their*
* attention by shouting up close.*
**[13:15] Kirisame**
What are you doing here?
**[13:19] Kirisame**
Which village are you from?
**[13:23] Kohaku**
*I didn't notice her at all.*
**[13:25] Kirisame**
* This girl immediately*
* assumed a combat stance.*
**[13:43] Kohaku**
*She's strong.*
**[13:44] Kohaku**
* This woman must be one of the*
* strongest warriors on the island...*
**[13:47] Kohaku**
*Kirisame!*
**[13:50] Gen**
This is bad!
**[13:54] Kohaku**
* There's no way I can stop*
* her without weapons!*
**[13:57] Kohaku**
*I'll have to keep fighting...*
**[13:59] Kohaku**
*and take my chances now!*
**[14:01] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[14:02] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[14:03] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[14:04] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[14:05] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[14:06] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[14:07] Kohaku**
I want the lab!
**[14:09] Kohaku**
That's all we need!
**[14:10] Kohaku**
Please!
**[14:13] Kirisame**
Lab?
**[14:17] Soyuz**
*R-Right.*
**[14:18] Soyuz**
* The people on the island would*
* have never heard such a word.*
**[14:21] Soyuz**
* It's effectively a secret message to*
* the people of the Kingdom of Science!*
**[14:28] Gen**
Well, go on, Lab-kun. You need to go find her.
**[14:33] Senku**
Huh?
**[14:34] Gen**
Come on, now.
**[14:37] Soyuz**
*Lab-kun?*
**[14:38] Soyuz**
*That's Senku?*
**[14:40] Gen**
Sorry, sorry.
**[14:42] Gen**
She's just so possessive.
**[14:45] Gen**
She gets jealous and starts
a fight as soon as she finds
**[14:48] Gen**
another girl hanging out near him.
**[14:52] Kohaku**
Lab!
**[14:53] Kohaku**
I want Lab!
**[14:56] Kohaku**
Indeed, that is so!
**[14:58] Kohaku**
Lab and I are lovers!
**[15:00] Senku**
Ah...
**[15:02] Kohaku**
Smooch!
**[15:09] Kirisame**
J-Just hurry on home!
**[15:12] Kirisame**
Never have your flirtatious
meetings here again!
**[15:17] Senku**
Not that such two-bit acting means anything
if there's no one left on the ship.
**[15:22] Kohaku**
Yeah. I know.
**[15:25] Kohaku**
But I'm certain someone is.
***SIGN*** A Few Hours Ago
**[15:39] (Flashback) Ryusui**
Who are you?
**[15:50] Ryusui**
*She threw something unannounced.*
**[15:52] Ryusui**
*It's an obvious attack.*
**[15:53] Ryusui**
*Am I right?*
**[15:55] Ryusui**
*What is that? Think...*
**[15:57] Ryusui**
* I suspect I only have a few*
* seconds until it hits me.*
**[16:02] Ryusui**
*What is the rope for?*
**[16:04] Ryusui**
*To recover the object being thrown?*
**[16:06] Ryusui**
*Or to gauge its distance?*
**[16:08] Ryusui**
* What's more, the thrower is*
* keeping quite a distance.*
**[16:11] Ryusui**
*Which means...*
**[16:13] Ryusui & Ukyo**
*It's a type of grenade!*
**[16:21] Ryusui**
*There's no time to escape its range.*
**[16:24] Ryusui**
*My death is imminent.*
**[16:26] Ryusui**
*I'll have to resort to my next plan!*
**[16:28] Ryusui**
*If there's anyone I can save...*
**[16:32] (Flashback) Suika**
Ryu—
**[16:32] (Flashback) Suika**
...sui?!
**[16:35] (Flashback) Ryusui**
Live on, Suika!
**[16:36] (Flashback) Ryusui**
Let Senku and the others know...
**[16:38] (Flashback) Ryusui**
The ship's been attacked!
**[16:43] (Flashback) Ginro**
What?! What?! What?! What?!
**[16:44] (Flashback) Ginro**
What is that light?!
**[16:47] Ginro**
* Some weird light's passing*
* through everything!*
**[16:49] Ginro**
*The ship, the water... everything!*
**[16:51] Ginro**
*I'm done for!*
**[16:59] Ginro**
*The light stopped?*
**[17:03] Ginro**
*I'm saved?*
**[17:05] Ginro**
*Barely...*
**[17:07] Ginro**
*Right...*
**[17:08] Ginro**
* Ukyo grazed it with the arrow,*
* which gave me just enough room...*
**[17:25] Ginro**
*Petrified...*
**[17:30] Ginro**
*Why?*
**[17:31] Ginro**
*They're all...*
**[17:44] Ginro**
*Kinro...*
**[17:46] Ginro**
*Please...*
**[17:48] Ginro**
*Kinro...*
**[17:59] Ginro**
*Someone's coming!*
**[18:00] Ginro**
*I need somewhere to hide!*
**[18:05] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[18:06] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[18:07] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[18:08] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[18:09] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[18:10] Kohaku**
The lab!
**[18:16] Ginro**
* I think I heard Kohaku-chan's*
* voice saying, "The lab!"*
**[18:22] Ginro**
Kohaku-chan!
**[18:24] Ginro**
Senku and the others must be with her!
**[18:26] Ginro**
I'm over here!
**[18:30] Kohaku**
Someone's on the ship!
**[18:31] Kohaku**
A survivor from the Kingdom of Science!
**[18:34] Senku**
Who is it?!
**[18:39] Kohaku, Senku & Gen**
It's Ginro...
**[18:42] Amaryllis**
What? Is this Ginro not good enough?
**[18:45] Gen**
It's not that...
**[18:47] Gen**
It's not that he's not good enough.
**[18:48] Gen**
He does what he needs to
when it really comes to it.
**[18:50] Gen**
But...
**[18:51] Gen**
In terms of getting our lab back,
***SIGN*** Magma
***SIGN*** Taiju
**[18:54] Gen**
if the person who came out of the
barrel was Ryusui or Francois or Ukyo,
***SIGN*** Ryusui
***SIGN*** Francois
***SIGN*** Ukyo
**[19:00] Gen**
that would have been an SSR gacha pull...
***SIGN*** Ginro
**[19:04] Gen, Senku & Kohaku**
But it's Ginro...
**[19:08] Kohaku**
No, Ginro does the right thing
when push comes to shove.
**[19:12] Kohaku**
Look!
**[19:12] Kohaku**
I think he's trying to convey
some important information.
**[19:18] Kohaku**
"H."
**[19:18] Kohaku**
"E."
**[19:19] Kohaku**
"L."
**[19:20] Kohaku**
"P."
***SIGN*** THUD
**[19:23] Kohaku**
That's. Not. It. Dumbass!
**[19:26] Kohaku**
*You* need to help *us*!
**[19:43] Ibara**
Say there, warrior, has someone
touched these barrels?
**[19:48] Warrior**
No, sir.
**[19:49] Ibara**
Why has it moved?
**[19:52] Warrior**
H-Has it?
**[19:54] Ibara**
It has.
**[19:55] Ibara**
By about a pinky's width.
**[19:58] Ibara**
It's not where I saw it last time.
**[20:13] Ibara**
Let's have a look.
**[20:19] Ibara**
What was that noise?!
**[20:20] Warrior**
It came from the transparent, ice-like room.
**[20:29] Ginro**
*Transparent?*
**[20:30] Ginro**
*Glass?*
**[20:32] Ginro**
*The greenhouse where we're growing food?*
**[20:34] Ginro**
*Who's in there?*
**[20:47] Warrior B**
Was it this thing?
**[20:49] Kirisame**
Judging from its bleating, it may be the beast
called the "goat" from the Hundred Tales.
**[20:54] Warrior C**
I heard it from up close, though.
**[20:57] Warrior C**
That "crash!" sounded like
something rolled and hit something.
**[21:02] Warrior**
It might be fiercer than it looks.
**[21:06] Ibara**
I like it! I like it very much!
**[21:08] Ibara**
The Master will be pleased, I'm sure!
**[21:11] Ibara**
And the vegetables!
**[21:13] Ibara**
All such unusual kinds!
**[21:16] Ibara**
I like it!
**[21:21] Ginro**
*I'm saved!*
**[21:23] Ginro**
*Although I have no idea how.*
**[21:26] Kohaku**
Someone grabbed their attention
from the greenhouse?
**[21:30] Senku**
We've got a mega elite in there.
**[21:35] Senku**
The boat we used to get to the island...
**[21:38] Senku**
They would have noticed that someone's
on the island if they'd found it,
**[21:44] Senku**
but she ten billion percent
hid it in the greenery.
**[21:49] Senku**
No one's going to find it there for a while.
**[21:52] Senku**
She's here fully prepared.
**[21:55] Senku**
The master of nature and infiltration!
**[22:03] Suika**
I'm gonna make myself useful, too!
**[22:07] Suika**
Ginro and I are gonna get
the science lab together!
