[00:43] Penta     You're not going to catch me! [00:47] Lane     Give it up. You're completely surrounded. [00:52] Ninotchka     You're here, too, Chief? [00:54] Lane     Oh, yeah. I just happened to be passing by. [00:57] Penta     Damn it... [01:05] Chuta     A loud noise? [01:08] Chuta Narration     Spring. [01:09] Chuta Narration     I'm finally fitting in with my new class, [01:10] Chuta     It must be the neighbor's cat. [01:13] Chuta Narration     so I think I'll be able to get by. [01:18] Chuta Narration     Or so I thought, [01:21] Chuta Narration     at the time... SIGN    Chuta, the Voice, and the Qualifying Exam SIGN    Shirobori Middle School [02:56] Chuta     Huh? Something smells good? [02:59] Chuta     Well, it is spring... [03:03] Takegawa     Kokonose? Who are you talking to? [03:05] Chuta     I like the smell of freshly-washed clothes     after they've been dried. [03:09] Takegawa     Hey, Kokonose! [03:11] Chuta     Yes, sir! [03:11] Takegawa     How long do you plan on     talking to yourself? [03:12] Guy     There it is. [03:13] Chuta     I'm sorry! [03:13] Guy     Murmuring Chuta. [03:19] Guy     The school year's just begun,     and you're already a hero. [03:21] Guy2     I can't believe you ignored     Takegawa in social studies... [03:24] Chuta     Let's stop talking about that. [03:26] Guy     I mean, people wouldn't     normally be able to do that. [03:29] Guy2     Seriously. [03:29] Shizu     Misuzu, isn't Kokonose-kun     interesting and funny? [03:43] Chuta     Misuzu Sonokata. [03:46] Chuta     I haven't talked to her once yet,     but I bet her personality's really cute, too. [03:52] Guy     Whoa, you're like a pro. [03:54] Guy2     Nothing less from the demon of home ec     trained in the art of doing chores. [03:57] Chuta     You're exaggerating. [03:59] Guy     Um, Kokonose-kun... [04:02] Guy     The cooking club has a cooking contest     coming up. Would you consider joining? [04:07] Chuta     Huh? Me? [04:09] Girl     We've noticed how good you are,     so we wanted to ask you. [04:15] Chuta     S-Sorry, but I'm gonna pass. [04:24] Boy     Aw, he declined. [04:27] Girl     I hear that's exactly why he     doesn't have any friends. [04:30] Chuta     That's not true! [04:33] Chuta     I'm not holding back or anything! [04:35] Chuta     I just really don't want to do it!     I have to help Auntie, anyway! [04:39] Boy     What? Is he talking to himself? [04:42] Chuta     Crap... [04:49] Chuta     It's not like I want to talk to myself. [04:53] Chuta     There's a reason that I seem to be in a daze     or not hear what people are saying. [04:59] Voice     It's a bad habit of yours, Chuta. [05:01] Chuta     I hear this voice. [05:04] Voice     You're negative and pessimistic. [05:05] Voice     Don't you have any confidence, Chuta? [05:08] Chuta     Mind your own business! [05:10] Chuta     I've been hearing this voice     for as long as I can remember, [05:14] Chuta     and it only reverberates in my head. [05:17] Chuta     When I was little, I thought     that's how it was for everyone, [05:21] Chuta     but apparently it's just me. [05:23] Chuta     The conversations we have are usually idiotic,     so I've never anyone else about it. [05:28] Chuta     But because of this, I miss     important things being said, [05:31] Chuta     or I argue with the voice     and get treated like some weirdo. [05:37] Chuta     I'm basically complicated like that. [05:39] Voice     That's exactly why you     don't have any friends. [05:41] Chuta     I said, "Shut up!" [05:44] Chuta     If that were the extent of my troubles,     it wouldn't be so bad, but... [05:51] Chuta     But that's why I decided that I wouldn't     cause anyone else any trouble. [05:56] Voice     Chuta, I smell oil. [05:58] Chuta     Well, we're in cooking class,     so it shouldn't be a surprise. [06:01] Tateyan     Ow... [06:03] Chuta     Saotome-sensei... [06:05] Saotome     You have some nerve, wrestling each other     in the hallway while I was gone, Tateyan, Uchida. [06:13] Tateyan     We're sorry. [06:15] Saotome     Come see me in the faculty room     after school. [06:17] Uchida     Okay. [06:18] Voice     It's Blob-Blob, Chuta! [06:18] Tateyan     Gladly. [06:20] Saotome     Come on. You need to return to class, too. [06:23] Chuta     Y-Yes, Ma'am. [06:25] Voice     Blob-Blob! It's Blob-Blob! [06:28] Chuta     Shut up, already! [06:30] Voice     It's Blob-Blob, isn't it? [06:31] Chuta     Don't you mean boing-boing? [06:36] Chuta     She heard me...? [06:45] Misuzu     You're the worst kind of pervert. [06:47] Misuzu     Please die without leaving a trace. [06:50] Chuta     What— Die? Huh? [06:54] Chuta     The words that come out of her mouth     and her face don't match at all! [06:56] Chuta     More importantly, was I just rejected? [06:59] Voice     D'oh, Chuta. [07:02] Chuta     Couldn't it have just stayed     as a one-sided crush? [07:08] Tateyan     Hey! [07:10] Tateyan     Are you free today? [07:12] Tateyan     Saotome-chan is taking us to karaoke. [07:15] Chuta     You're going with Saotome-sensei? [07:16] Tateyan     Do you wanna come? [07:18] Chuta     Huh? Sorry, but I'm... [07:21] Tateyan     I see. [07:23] Chuta     Sorry. [07:23] Tateyan     Chuta Kokonose, right? [07:26] Tateyan     You sure are interesting. [07:29] Tateyan     Well, show up if you change your mind. [07:31] Tateyan     I'm Tateyan. [07:34] Chuta     Thanks, Tateyan. [07:37] Tateyan     See ya! [07:39] Caster     Next, we have some news from overseas. [07:42] Caster     We have just found out that the next head     of the Italian Mafia could be Japanese. [07:50] Chuta     I live in a muffin shop. [07:56] Chuta     I'm home, Auntie. [07:57] Mimi     Welcome home, Chuta! [08:00] Voice     Mimi seems to be in a good mood. [08:02] Chuta     This is my aunt, Mimi. [08:04] Chuta     She's a genius when it     comes to making muffins, [08:07] Chuta     but she's not all there     when it comes to other chores. [08:11] Mimi     Say, Chuta. [08:13] Mimi     This is hard for me to say... [08:16] Mimi     I was using them carefully, but the shop's     dust rags have gotten frayed. [08:21] [SONG] Sign     Freshly-baked     Muffins [08:21] Chuta     Okay. I'll sew some new dust rags for you. [08:24] Mimi     Thanks, Chuta! [08:27] Voice     Well done, Chuta. [08:27] Mimi     I love you! [08:28] Chuta     It's not a big deal. [08:30] Mimi     Huh? [08:30] Chuta     Oh, it's nothing... [08:30] [SONG] Sign     Freshly-baked Muffins [08:32] Chuta     Oh, I have the dish I made in home ec,     but do you want some? [08:36] Mimi     Woohoo! Thanks! [08:38] Mimi     I've been so busy that I haven't     eaten lunch yet. [08:43] Mimi     So good! [08:48] Mimi     Did something happen at school? [08:50] Chuta     Huh? [08:50] Mimi     Did you mess up again? [08:53] Chuta     N-Nothing happened. Ow! [08:56] Mimi     Are you okay? [08:57] Chuta     Yeah, I'm fine. [09:00] Chuta     My aunt raised me on her own,     after I lost my parents. [09:05] Chuta     So I can't really hide anything from her. [09:10] Voice     Someone's here. [09:14] (Flashback) Misuzu     Please die without leaving a trace. [09:17] Chuta     She didn't have to say it like that... [09:20] Chuta     That demon with an angel's face... [09:22] Voice     Chuta, someone's here. [09:24] Chuta     But man... she's so cute. [09:27] Chips     Changes in the target's particles confirmed. [09:30] Chips     Please go ahead with the transfer, chu! [09:32] Voice     So bright! [09:34] Voice     Bright! Bright! [09:35] Chuta     Wh-What the... [09:36] Voice     Chuta, what is this? [09:38] Chuta     I don't know, either! [09:42] Chuta     Ow... [09:44] Voice     This is a strange room. [09:46] Voice     This room! It's a strange room, Chuta! [09:54] Chuta     What's going on? [09:56] Chuta     Where are we? [09:59] Voice     There's something over there.     Chuta, there's something over there. [10:03] Chuta     I got it, so be quiet already. [10:04] Tonto     That kid keeps talking to himself.     Did he hit his head? [10:09] Riggs     Apparently, talking to himself has nothing     to do with being an Earthling. [10:14] McClane     The Earthlings we know     don't talk to themselves, either. [10:21] Voice     All right, let's go, Chuta! [10:35] Chuta     Huh? [10:38] Chuta     What? [10:39] Voice     A cat! Their faces are triangles! [10:41] Chuta     Huh?! [10:42] Voice     They're suspicious, Chuta. [10:44] Chuta     Did we show up to some costume contest? [10:47] Laine     Oh, welcome, Chuta Kokonose. [10:51] Laine     We're Space Police ēlDLIVE. [10:54] Guys     Yoyosa! [10:56] Chuta     S-Space Police...? [11:00] Laine     My name is Laine Brick. [11:02] Laine     I'm the chief of this     solar system's ēlDLIVE bureau. [11:07] Exec     So why was this boy chosen for ēlDLIVE? [11:12] Exec     Judging from his data, I don't see     anything special about this Earthling. [11:18] Kieshi     Please calm yourselves. [11:21] Kieshi     This was the consensus of Mothers. [11:24] Chuta     I was chosen? [11:27] Laine     That's right. [11:28] Laine     We, the personnel of ēlDLIVE, [11:31] Laine     recruit those who have the potential     to become great police officers [11:34] Laine     by the consensus of the Mothers Computer     that is distributed across the universe. [11:39] Laine     And you were chosen     by the Mothers Computer. [11:43] Chuta     Hang on a sec. [11:44] Chuta     This is all way too sudden. [11:46] Chuta     Where are we anyway? [11:49] Laine     This is the Jeanrenoi-R,     this solar system's ēlDLIVE bureau. [11:53] Chuta     Jeanreno...? [11:55] Laine     Hm... It might be faster to show you,     rather than explaining. [12:00] Laine     Tonto, Riggs. [12:01] Both     Yoyosa! [12:05] Chuta     Huh? [12:06] Utah     Transfer to ejection block confirmed. [12:09] Chuta     Um, what is this? [12:12] Laine     All right. Throw him out there. [12:14] Utah     Yoyosa! [12:15] Voice     The door is opening. It's opening! It's opening! [12:16] Chuta     Huh? It's opening? [12:21] Voice     There's something round behind us! [12:23] Voice     It's a planet! It's Earth, Chuta! [12:27] Chuta     You're kidding! SIGN    Chuta Kokonose [12:43] Chuta     That's amazing! [12:44] Laine     Turn around! You can see     our awesome-looking bureau. [12:48] Chuta     Whoa, a spaceship?! [12:50] Voice     It's a plastic model. Doesn't it look     like a plastic model, Chuta? [12:55] Merius     Earthlings have such sloppy form. [12:57] Chuta     Whoa, a face! [12:59] Voice     It looks like a crescent moon. [13:01] Marly     Don't scare him, Méliès. [13:03] Marly     If you're scared, hang onto me. [13:05] Chuta     Eight tentacles?! [13:06] Voice     There're ten. [13:07] Laine     There are many lifeforms     living in this vast universe. [13:11] Laine     Protecting the citizens     and public order of the universe... [13:17] Laine     That's our mission as the Space Police ēlDLIVE. [13:22] Tonto     The Chief nailed it. [13:23] Riggs     He can say such cheesy lines so boldly... [13:26] Laine     Anyway! As long as you pass the     qualifying exam that I'm about to give you, [13:30] Laine     you'll be an official member     of ēlDLIVE, kid. [13:33] Chuta     Huh?! "Kid"? [13:34] Chuta     Hang on a second! I never agreed to this! [13:37] Laine     Don't worry about it! Actually, just do it. [13:41] Chuta     Is that an order? [13:42] Voice     Take the test, Chuta. [13:43] Chuta     Huh? [13:43] Voice     Try to join ēlDLIVE.     It seems fun! Definitely do it! [13:47] Chuta     Shut up! You shut your mouth! [13:50] Laine     You really do talk to yourself a lot. [13:52] Chuta     Um... [13:55] Chuta     I can't. [13:56] Laine     Aw, come on! [14:00] Chuta     I can't. [14:01] Laine     I see. Well, this isn't good. [14:04] Riggs     What should we tell the higher-ups? [14:06] Tonto     Chief, what if by some insane coincidence,     there was a mechanical failure... [14:11] Laine     Oho, I see. [14:13] Laine     If the oxygen in his spacesuit     just happens to get depleted, [14:16] Tonto     Yup, yup. [14:16] Laine     and he's unable to take the qualifying exam,     we won't get in trouble with the higher-ups. [14:21] Chuta     Um, I can hear everything you're saying! [14:23] Misuzu     I can't agree to this. [14:25] Misuzu     As you can see from     his habit of talking to himself, [14:28] Misuzu     he suffers from delusions. [14:29] Voice     I know this voice. [14:29] Misuzu     And apparently he has no hesitations     in voicing these delusions. [14:33] Misuzu     His embarrassment level is     ten times higher than the average [14:35] Misuzu     for middle school students     across the country. [14:38] Misuzu     I believe it's only a matter of time     before his existence itself [14:40] Misuzu     is subject to the Prefectural     Ordinance of Juvenile Protection. [14:43] Chuta     I don't know who you are,     but stop blabbing about me! [14:47] Misuzu     Blabbing? [14:48] Chuta     You don't know anything about me. [14:51] Chuta     We won't know I can't do it     if I don't even try! [14:54] Laine     I see! So you'll do it! [14:57] Laine     I welcome passionate young men like yourself! [15:01] Tonto     And there you go. [15:03] Chuta     I just sort of went with the flow     and said I'd do this, but... [15:07] Voice     The qualifying exam seems fun! [15:11] Laine     You're going to arrest a     C-rank criminal alien from [15:14] Laine     the planet Chabrol that's     hiding on Earth with these. [15:17] Laine     If you do, you'll pass the exam. [15:19] Chuta     Handcuffs? Will it cause a fuss? [15:22] Laine     Hm... Well, it is a predatory alien,     so it might eat you if you're not careful. [15:27] Chuta     What?! [15:28] Laine     Sheronimo. [15:29] Shero     Leave it to me, shero. [15:30] Shero     SPH radiation. [15:32] Shero     Changes in the target's particles confirmed. [15:33] Chuta     By the way, I never asked where I was going. [15:35] Voice     Bright! [15:36] Shero     Starting transfer. [15:36] Chuta     Where am I going? [15:37] Voice     Bright! [15:42] Chuta     Ow! [15:45] Chuta     Where am I? [15:47] Voice     This is the third block of Keiki Town. [15:49] Chuta     Oh, yeah. [15:50] Chuta     This is right by my house.     Could the criminal be here? [15:54] Voice     Isn't it funny that there was     an alien this close, Chuta? [15:58] Chuta     No, it's not. [16:00] Voice     Let's hurry up and find the alien, Chuta. [16:02] Chuta     You say that, [16:04] Chuta     but how? [16:08] Chuta     Now everyone's starting     to look like an alien. [16:15] Laine     Hm... [16:18] Laine     Why was he chosen by Mothers? [16:21] Harry     Oh? [16:22] Laine     What is it, Harry? [16:24] Harry     It's about Chuta Kokonose... [16:26] Harry     His thermographic readings     are a bit strange for an Earthling... [16:31] Laine     Strange? [16:32] Harry     This part right here that's     slightly higher than the rest... [16:35] Harry     It's moving across the surface of his body. [16:43] Chuta     Are there really aliens? [16:46] Voice     Oil! I smell oil, Chuta! [16:50] Chuta     I don't smell it. [16:52] Saotome     Oh, if it isn't Kokonose-kun... [16:54] Tateyan     Oh, Chuta. [16:57] Chuta     Oh, hello. [16:58] Voice     Blob-Blob. [17:00] Chuta     Um... Are you coming back from karaoke? [17:03] Saotome     It's pretty late, so I'm making sure     Tateyan gets back safely. [17:07] Tateyan     Isn't it great? [17:08] Chuta     I see... [17:11] Voice     Blob-Blob smells like oil! [17:13] Chuta     I told you, I don't smell any oil. [17:17] Saotome     Could you be talking about me? [17:20] Chuta     No, not at all... [17:21] Tateyan     Well, yeah. Saotome-chan     smells much better than that. [17:26] Laine     Smell? Is he talking about SPH? [17:30] Riggs     That's inconceivable. Earthlings     don't have the ability to sense SPH. [17:36] Voice     Chuta, I smell oil from Blob-Blob.     Blob-Blob smells like oil. [17:41] Chuta     Shut up! I'm telling you,     nothing smells like oil! [17:45] Chuta     Also, it's not Blob-Blob... [17:49] Saotome     Who... Who are you calling Blob-Blob? [17:53] Tateyan     Saotome-chan? [17:55] Chuta     Sensei? [17:57] Saotome     I can't stand being called "Blob-Blob."     It's even worse than missing a meal! [18:12] Tonto     It's the Chabrolian! [18:14] Maclane     He found the criminal! [18:16] Laine     Oh? [18:17] Chabrolian     Ugh, how did you find me out? [18:21] Voice     It really was a Blob-Blob, huh, Chuta? [18:24] Chuta     Actually, I'd say it's more Chub-Chub. [18:26] Chabrolian     Don't be so rude! [18:29] Chabrolian     That's an ēlDLIVE badge! [18:33] Chabrolian     You're not going to catch me! [18:35] Chabrolian     Come any closer, and I'll kill this brat! [18:39] Chuta     Tateyan! [18:40] Tateyan     H-Help me, Chuta. [18:45] Tateyan     Help me, Chuta! [18:49] Gucchi     Help me! [18:52] Chuta     I'll save you! [18:53] Voice     Chuta, the rock on the right... [18:55] Chuta     The right? Got it! [18:56] Voice     No, that one's dangerous! [19:02] Chuta     Something bad's going to happen again... [19:03] Voice     You always say that, Chuta. [19:05] Chuta     See! This is exactly why! [19:07] Chuta     Someone like me, who keeps hearing     this weird voice is absolutely useless! [19:11] Chuta     I'll never be able to be a police officer! [19:13] Chabrolian     If you understand,     get lost already, ēlDLIVE! [19:17] Tateyan     Wait, Chuta! You're the only one! [19:20] Tateyan     Please! Help me, Chuta! [19:24] Chuta     I'm the only one who can save him? [19:27] Chabrolian     Shut up! [19:32] Chuta     Tateyan... [19:33] Voice     This isn't good. [19:34] Chuta     At this rate, it's going to get us, Chuta. [19:39] Laine     I guess this is the end... [19:44] Chuta     If I do something, something bad will happen. [19:47] Chuta     That's why, as much as possible, I tried     not to get involved with the people around me. [19:52] Chuta     But... [19:54] (Flashback) Tateyan     Well, show up if you change your mind. [19:56] (Flashback) Tateyan     I'm Tateyan. [19:58] Chuta     Tateyan, who talked to me despite     how I am, is asking me for help. [20:03] Voice     We should fall back for now. [20:06] Chuta     Can't I save him somehow? [20:09] Voice     Chuta? [20:11] Chuta     You're a part of me, [20:13] Chuta     so help me think of a way to save Tateyan! [20:15] Voice     What did you just say, Chuta? [20:17] Chuta     Shut up, and think with me! [20:20] Chuta     I'm the only one here!     I'm going to save Tateyan! [20:26] Voice     With you? [20:27] Voice     This is strange, Chuta. It's a new sensation. [20:31] Riggs     Chuta Kokonose's SPH level is rising. [20:36] Chuta     Stop! Let go of Tateyan! [20:38] Chabrolian     Come on. He's gonna snap in half. [20:40] Chuta     Stop! [20:42] Chabrolian     Come on... [20:43] Chuta     Stop! [20:46] Voice     Sympathy! [20:56] Monitalien     It's been a while since my symbiotic     technique has been activated. [20:59] Chuta     Huh? [21:04] Chuta     Wh-What is this? [21:06] Laine     The symbol on its forehead     belongs to the Lost Griffith. [21:11] Laine     There's only one way we'd     see something like that on Earth... [21:15] Laine     A Monitalien! [21:17] Riggs     Monitaliens are organisms sent across     various planets to observe those planets [21:22] Riggs     by the inhabitants of Griffith,     which flourished over four billion years ago.
