[01:39] G
    It's time for the opening comments by the
    first prime minister, Donald Zuramp-kun.
SIGN    Watch the Silver Soul arc in a bright
    room and at a safe distance from the TV!!!!!!!
[01:44] Kat
    I'm not Zuramp!
[01:46] Kat
    I'm Katsura!
[01:50] Kat
    Oh, my mistake.
[01:52] Kat
    I meant that not in the sense
    of a name, but as in a wig.
[01:57] Kat
    I wanted to go public with it before
    Bunshun caught wind of it.
[02:01] Kat
    I am the first prime minister
    of Japan, Donald Zuramp.
[02:06] Kat
    I stand here and speak as
    your representative today,
[02:09] Kat
    but I'm just an ordinary human who
    eats, poops, and sleeps like you all.
[02:15] Kat
    We stand at the precipice of a new era.
[02:19] Kat
    Our last two shoguns once said,
[02:23] Kat
    "Our country no longer needs a shogun."
[02:25] Kat
    And indeed, from now on,
    every person in this country
[02:30] Kat
    will be a tiny king standing on this podium.
[02:34] Kat
    We cannot waste what they protected
    until their dying breaths.
[02:39] Kat
    Within each and every one's hearts, they...
[02:42] Kat
    Our kings still live on!
[02:45] Kat
    When the countless kings across the
    country join hands and become one,
[02:49] Kat
    our sad past will turn into
    a source of pride for us!
[02:52] Kat
    That wasn't the day our country
    was reduced to rubble!
[02:56] Kat
    It was the day our country was reborn!
[03:04] G
    Hey, look!
[03:05] G
    No!
[03:09] G
    You're a crook warping the history books.
[03:11] G
    This is divine punishment!
[03:13] Kat
    Given that, I would like to
    establish some new rules.
SIGN    Constitution of Japan
[03:18] Kat
    And by that, I mean a constitution.
SIGN    Constitution of Japan
[03:22] Kat
    We'll be working on it together from now on,
[03:24] Kat
    but I've already put down the basic stuff.
[03:27] Kat
    It'll be distributed as a supplement
    with Jump, Sunday, and Magazine.
[03:28] G
    Didn't he get stabbed just now?
[03:29] G
    I'm pretty sure he did.
[03:29] Kat
    Make sure you all check it out.
[03:31] G
    Was that an assassin?
[03:32] G
    Donald Zuramp!
[03:34] G
    Divine judgment upon the
    con man ruining this country!
[03:39] Kat
    The journey we're about to
    start will be endlessly long!
[03:43] Kat
    But if we all work together,
    we will definitely reach our goals!
[03:49] Kat
    So please, everyone...
[03:57] Kat
    I'm not going to reject you or your beliefs.
[04:00] Kat
    However, true divine punishment
    is much harsher.
[04:07] Kat
    You're fired!
[04:12] Mat
    I see. So it ended in failure.
[04:15] Mat
    Don't worry about it.
    We'll have plenty more chances.
[04:20] Mat
    Well, there you have it.
[04:22] Shin
    Uh, were you just orchestrating an
    assassination of the prime minister?
[04:25] Mat
    What kind of moron entrusts the
    country to an ex-terrorist?
[04:29] Shin
    But don't you kind of owe him your life?
[04:32] Shin
    Back when you were imprisoned
    on Kokujo Island...
[04:35] (Flashback) Kat
    I hope you understand what
    this means, Matsudaira.
[04:38] (Flashback) Kat
    What I'm trying to open here
    is the door to a new era.
[04:43] (Flashback) Kat
    If we escape this island and eventually
    reach a stage where we rebuild the nation...
[04:50] (Flashback) Mat
    Okay, okay. I'll talk you up to the bakufu
    or the new government or whatever.
[04:56] (Flashback) Mat
    If we're still alive.
    Only if we're still alive.
[05:01] Mat
    I was sure he'd die at some point.
[05:05] Shin
    Wait, you're the one who brought that
    monster prime minister into power?!
[05:08] Shin
    It's basically your fault the
    Shinsengumi was dismantled!
[05:12] Mat
    On that note...
[05:14] Mat
    Have you ever killed a man?
[05:17] Shin
    Like hell I'd do it!
[05:18] Shin
    What the hell are you trying
    to make me an accomplice in?!
[05:21] Mat
    You only have two options:
SIGN    Kill
[05:23] Mat
    Kill, or take a life.
SIGN    Take a life
[05:25] Shin
    They're both murder!
[05:27] Soy
    Katakuriko, that's enough.
[05:31] Soy
    I see he still remembers.
[05:35] Soy
    "Our kings still live on," huh?
[05:40] Soy
    Right.
[05:41] Soy
    I'm sure he'll build a wonderful country.
[05:45] Soy
    Just you watch.
[05:51] Sak
    I see. Zura's the prime minister?
[05:54] Sak
    Looks like Edo's goin' ta become
    an even more fun place now!
[05:58] Shin
    It's no laughing matter, Sakamoto-san.
[06:01] Tam
    I'll add this to my data:
[06:03] Tam
    "Shinpachi-sama quit Odd Jobs
[06:06] Tam
    and switched to being an assassin."
[06:07] Shin
    Quit saying such disturbing things!
[06:09] Shin
    I'll dismantle you!
[06:10] Tam
    But you already took the money
    and came to the meeting place.
[06:15] Shin
    I-I'm here to stop them, obviously!
[06:17] (Flashback) Mat
    The princess is saying that,
    but I've already made preparations.
[06:21] (Flashback) Mat
    I arranged for a dangerous weapon
    and a first-rate assassin.
[06:25] (Flashback) Mat
    Go to the pier, receive the weapon
    from the black market dealer,
[06:28] (Flashback) Mat
    and meet up with the rest of the team.
[06:30] Shin
    Help me out here, Sakamoto-san!
[06:33] Shin
    You're the only one who can stop Katsura-san!
[06:36] Sak
    Unfortunately, I'm a bit occupied right now.
[06:40] Sak
    I'm on this ship called Espoir,
[06:43] Sak
    walkin' across an iron beam
    to try to win a fortune.
[06:46] Shin
    So you're bankrupt?!
[06:48] Sak
    Help me out here, Shinpachi-kun.
[06:50] Sak
    You're the only one who can save me...
[06:53] Shin
    I'm the one calling for help!
[06:55] Sak
    Fine. I'll send some help your way.
[06:59] Sak
    I'm pretty sure Mutsu is
    on Earth for some wor—
[07:05] Tam
    I'll add this to my data:
[07:07] Tam
    Kaientai Captain Sakamoto Tatsuma, dead.
[07:10] Shin
    Don't jinx him!
[07:12] BMD
    Hey.
[07:14] BMD
    You the recipient for the goods?
[07:19] Shin
    The dealer?
[07:20] Shin
    N-No, I'm...
[07:21] Tam
    Yes. From murder to arms smuggling,
    Odd Jobs will do everything.
[07:25] Shin
    Hey!
[07:26] Tam
    Did I say something wrong?
[07:29] Shin
    I told you, I'm here to stop the plot!
[07:29] BMD
    Boss, they're arguing about something.
[07:31] Mut
    Doesn't matter.
[07:32] Mut
    Just hand over the goods and grab the money.
[07:35] Mut
    That's what we do as black market dealers.
[07:38] Shin
    It was you?!
[07:42] Shin
    How can this be?
[07:44] Shin
    I never dreamed you'd be a
    black market dealer, Mutsu-san.
[07:46] Mut
    In the battle two years ago,
[07:48] Mut
    we Kaientai lost most of our ships.
[07:53] Mut
    That moron tried to recover those losses
[07:55] Mut
    by investing the money we
    had left in cryptocurrency.
[07:59] Mut
    As you'd expect, he lost it
    all and left us flat broke.
[08:03] Mut
    To bring the Kaientai back, we all
    decided to raise funds separately.
[08:07] Shin
    Forget it! He's never coming back from that!
[08:11] Mut
    I've gone back to my roots and am
    dabbling in some rather gray trade.
[08:16] Shin
    You have the skull and crossbones
    right on your cape, though!
[08:18] Shin
    What you're doing is nearly pitch-black!
[08:23] Mut
    Take it and go.
[08:24] Mut
    We got our hands on the
    ultimate weapon as ordered.
[08:29] Shin
    Wh-What is this?
[08:36] ???
    Don't show me something so
    disgusting as soon as I wake up.
[08:42] Mut
    As far as I know, this
    is the ultimate weapon.
[08:46] Mut
    Member of the universe's mightiest warrior
    race, daughter of its best alien hunter,
[08:51] Mut
    and also the kid sister of
    its most notorious pirate,
[08:54] Mut
    Kagura...
[08:56] ???
    Huh... So this is Earth, Mommy's other home?
[09:02] Mut
    Kagura's daughter,
[09:05] Mut
    Kanna.
[09:08] Shin
    The Final Fantasy Phenomenon is still going?!
[10:07] Gin
    That's weird.
[10:09] Gin
    I don't remember there
    being a grave out here.
[10:13] Gin
    And I don't remember it being a place where
    weird ghosts appeared in broad daylight.
[10:19] Tak
    Unfortunately, I went and made a promise
[10:24] Tak
    that I'd bring him back here for sure.
[10:27] Gin
    Then hurry up and pass on.
[10:29] Gin
    You finished what you came for, right?
[10:33] Tak
    Finished?
[10:42] Tak
    Only a specter can grab
    another specter's hand.
[10:47] Tak
    Would you like to hop over to this side, too?
[10:52] Gin
    Takasugi, you...
[10:56] G
    You must be Takasugi
    Shinsuke, the wanted man!
[10:58] G
    Quietly turn yourself in!
[11:04] Gin
    Takasugi!
[11:08] G
    Are you Takasugi's friend?
[11:10] Gin
    Is that what it looked like?
[11:15] Hij
    Leave it at that.
[11:18] Hij
    It's been a while since we've
    caught such promising prey.
[11:22] Hij
    I'm getting excited.
[11:26] Hij
    The savior of Earth, meeting up with
    an old buddy and plotting evil?
[11:28] Sign
    Questioning
[11:31] Gin
    Listen to me!
[11:32] Gin
    I told you, we were just
    conspiring to destroy Earth!
[11:37] Hij
    You're supposed to make some excuse!
[11:39] Hij
    You should be trying to
    prove your innocence here!
[11:41] Hij
    Like you'd have the balls
    to destroy Earth, anyway!
[11:44] Gin
    If you know that, then
    don't ask me to begin with!
[11:47] Hij
    Again, come up with some excuse!
[11:49] Gin
    Let's make it quick.
[11:50] Gin
    I can't be bothered making excuses anymore.
[11:53] Gin
    I bet you'll take your demotion out on
    me by torturing and then executing me.
[11:57] Hij
    Who got demoted?
[11:59] Gin
    Then why're you doing this
    out here in the boonies?
[12:03] Gin
    Well, if you don't wanna talk, that's fine.
[12:06] Gin
    We have all the time in the world.
[12:08] Gin
    Hey, get us two katsudons.
[12:11] Gin
    One covered in mayonnaise.
[12:13] ???
    Roger.
[12:14] Hij
    Why are you making it look like
    I'm the one being questioned?
[12:17] Gin
    If you wanna make someone talk,
    you've gotta first spill it all yourself.
[12:21] Gin
    Give me everything you've got, Toshi.
[12:23] Hij
    Who do you think you are? What's
    with that stern-yet-caring gaze?!
[12:31] Hij
    The Shinsengumi have just split
    up temporarily for reasons.
[12:36] Gin
    Oh, really?
[12:41] Hij
    After abandoning Edo and Odd Jobs
    and disappearing for two years,
[12:45] Hij
    I was wondering how you
    could face yourself in life,
[12:50] Hij
    but this is just stupid.
[12:51] Hij
    It's the same old stupid face
    I'd grown tired of seeing.
[12:56] Hij
    Did you know?
[12:58] Hij
    On that day two years ago,
[13:00] Hij
    Takasugi's group wasn't the only one
    that vanished from the Heavenly Bird.
[13:03] Hij
    There was one other entity.
[13:06] Hij
    The Tendoshu.
[13:09] Hij
    At a glance, they were just lumps of meat,
[13:11] Hij
    but it seems Utsuro's blood
    still remained within them.
[13:17] Hij
    And lately, out in space,
[13:20] Hij
    there've been frequent terrorist attacks
    in countries that nationalized Altana.
[13:24] Hij
    Rumors are spreading that
    the Tendoshu have revived
[13:28] Hij
    and have returned to take back
    the Altana they lost.
[13:31] Gin
    And you're saying he was behind it all?
[13:34] Hij
    No, I can't say anything for sure.
[13:37] Gin
    He covered his hands in blood to overturn
    the world the Tendoshu and Utsuro created.
[13:43] Hij
    But...
[13:45] Hij
    He was never picky about the
    means to his ends, either, was he?
[13:50] Hij
    What if, just like you did when you
    cast aside Odd Jobs and left,
[13:53] Hij
    he had something he had to do, too?
[13:57] Gin
    It's not like I had some big reason.
[14:01] ???
    If you don't talk, we'll be forced
    to arrest you as a prime suspect.
[14:07] ???
    Is that what you want?
[14:08] Gin
    It'd be a great help, getting
    a place to sleep for free.
[14:11] ???
    Hijikata-san,
[14:12] ???
    it seems that further questioning
    would be a waste of time.
[14:15] Hij
    Yeah.
[14:17] Hij
    But first, there's something I want to ask.
[14:21] Hij
    Who are you?
[14:24] Hij
    You joined in like it was
    nothing, but who are you?
[14:27] ???
    Just a mob character.
[14:29] Hij
    But you stand out too much for that.
[14:31] Hij
    Could you be Robo—
[14:32] ???
    I'm Mobcop.
[14:33] Hij
    What the hell is a Mobcop?
[14:34] Mob
    Pardon the late introduction.
[14:36] Mob
    I'm actually Metal Constable 001,
    introduced by the new government.
[14:41] Mob
    Today is my first day on the job.
[14:43] Hij
    Look, you stand out too
    much for a mob character!
[14:46] Hij
    Could you shut up? You're
    distracting from the topic.
[14:49] Mob
    Oh, I'm sorry. I got too worked up.
[14:54] Hij
    Odd Jobs, you're free
    to keep your mouth shut,
[14:58] Hij
    but there's a chance you could
    hurt Edo with that choice.
[15:03] Hij
    Is that okay with you?
[15:05] Hij
    Is that all Edo means to you these days?
[15:10] Hij
    Or what is it?
[15:12] Hij
    Do you believe...
[15:15] Hij
    Too distracting!
[15:17] Hij
    What have you been dropping over there?!
[15:20] Mob
    I was just making katsudon.
[15:21] Hij
    Where the hell are you
    dumping the cutlets from?!
[15:24] Mob
    I'm sorry. I'll spew out some
    mayonnaise right away, too.
[15:26] Hij
    Don't want it!
[15:27] Hij
    And why's more than half your
    body made up of cooking tools?!
[15:31] Hij
    I'm telling you, you stand out too much!
[15:32] Hij
    Nobody can focus with you in the frame!
[15:35] Hij
    If you're a mob character, act like one!
[15:37] Mob
    How about just letting me handle
    this investigation, then?
[15:41] Hij
    Huh?
[15:42] Mob
    I've been coded with a wealth of knowledge
    amassed by the police over time.
[15:46] Mob
    Winning over a man like him
    would be a piece of cake for me.
[15:49] Hij
    That's some big talk, little man.
[15:52] Mob
    Hey, you!
[15:53] Mob
    Think about your mum back home!
[15:56] Hij
    That's too cliched.
[15:58] Hij
    Like you could win over this
    punk with such sentimental crap.
[16:01] Mob
    Do you want to make your mum sad?
[16:05] Mob
    If I use the weapon I've been equipped with,
[16:08] Mob
    your mum and the three-kilometer area
    around her will be reduced to embers.
[16:11] Hij
    I didn't see that threat coming!
[16:13] Gun
    I hate to break it to ya, but I don't
    even know if I still have a mum.
[16:17] Gun
    What about you, though?
[16:18] Gun
    How could you turn the body your parents
    gave you into something so metallic?
[16:22] Gun
    They must be so sad.
[16:25] Mob
    Don't be silly.
[16:26] Mob
    There isn't anyone who would
    be saddened over this Mobcop.
[16:30] Mob
    Is that really true, though?
[16:32] Mob
    I have no memories of my
    life before my remodeling.
[16:35] Hij
    Hey! Why's a mob character
    entering a flashback?!
[16:38] Mob
    But from what I've heard,
[16:40] Mob
    I got into an accident and
    was in critical condition
[16:42] Mob
    when I offered my body up as
    a test subject for Mobcop.
[16:46] Hij
    Nobody cares about you!
[16:49] Mob
    Was there nobody saddened by that?
[16:54] Mob
    No, wait. The fact that nobody's
    looking for me tells the whole story.
[16:59] Mob
    I've been forgotten by one and all.
[17:02] Mob
    And I forgot everything so
    I wouldn't remember that!
[17:06] Hij
    What's the point of you spilling your guts?
[17:09] Gin
    Someone who didn't have anybody to
    sadden would never shed those things.
[17:14] Gin
    Even if your memories are gone,
    your body still remembers
[17:18] Gin
    that you once had people dear to you,
    people you would shed tears over.
[17:23] Gin
    They just haven't recognized
    you in your changed state.
[17:28] Gin
    If you put your name out there,
    they'll surely come running to you.
[17:32] Mob
    R-Really?
[17:33] Hij
    Hey, who are we questioning here?
[17:36] Gin
    Yeah.
[17:37] Gin
    So don't fear. Remember.
[17:39] Gin
    Who are you?
[17:41] Gin
    Were you plotting evil with Takasugi?
[17:44] Hij
    Don't try to frame him for your crimes!
[17:50] Mob
    I think I'm starting to remember!
    It's at the tip of my helmet!
[17:55] Mob
    My ID! Where's my ID?!
[17:57] Gin
    Your ID?
[17:58] Mob
    The only lead to my past life!
[18:00] Mob
    My police ID still had my photo...
[18:09] Hij
    Oh...
[18:09] Gin
    Oh...
[18:13] Hij
    I forgot about him.
[18:13] Gin
    I forgot about him.
[18:14] Ymz
    Are you kidding me?!
[18:18] Ymz
    I remember now.
[18:22] Ymz
    Thanks to you guys forgetting about
    me, I've got this cool body now!
[18:27] Ymz
    And my real body is being treated, put up
    for display in briefs that have skid marks!
[18:35] Gin
    Wait, hold up! We didn't forget you!
[18:39] Gin
    We've just been busy since then,
[18:41] Gin
    so we forgot—er, put you
    on the back burner for a bit!
[18:45] Hij
    We remembered him, right?
[18:46] Gin
    Totally remembered him!
[18:47] Gin
    I'm so glad to see you're
    doing well, uh, er...
[18:53] Gin
    Shibasaki-kun?
[18:54] Ymz
    So you did forget!
[19:00] Hij
    Why, you little!
[19:03] Gin
    You guys are still the same, too.
[19:08] Gin
    What about them?
[19:10] Gin
    Are the Odd Jobs guys doing all right?
[19:14] Hij
    Go see for yourself!
[19:21] G
    After him!
[19:24] Hij
    That moron!
[19:30] Mut
    Well, it's in your hands now.
[19:33] Tam
    Shinpachi-sama.
[19:35] Tam
    Shinpachi-sama?
[19:36] Tam
    Shinpachi-sama!
[19:38] Kan
    Hey, what're you doing?
[19:40] Kan
    I wanna hurry up and explore Edo, 'kay?
[19:42] Kan
    Can I go on ahead?
[19:44] Tam
    I'm sorry. Something's
    wrong with Shinpachi-sama.
[19:47] Tam
    Hey!
[19:48] Kan
    That probably won't help.
[19:51] Kan
    He dropped this earlier.
[19:54] Kan
    Mommy told me that there are creatures on
    Earth whose glasses are their real body.
[20:00] Shin
    Wait, who the hell is your mommy?!
[20:04] Kan
    See?
[20:05] Shin
    Th-That was close!
[20:07] Shin
    My heart and straight man
    routine had stopped.
[20:10] Shin
    Wh-What's going on?
[20:11] Shin
    Kagura-chan's daughter?
[20:13] Shin
    Th-That can't be.
[20:14] Shin
    You won't trick me anymore, Final Fantasy!
[20:17] Kan
    You're Pachi-boy, Mommy's lackey, right?
[20:20] Shin
    Who're you calling a lackey?!
[20:22] Kan
    I've heard all about it.
[20:23] Kan
    About how there are a bunch of base
    lifeforms on Earth that I've never seen.
[20:28] Shin
    So all you heard was bitching?!
[20:29] Shin
    J-Just drop it already!
[20:31] Shin
    There's no way you can be Kagura-chan's kid!
[20:33] Shin
    She was only 14 back then!
[20:35] Shin
    Even now, she's only 16!
[20:37] Shin
    Sh-She'd never do something so dirty!
[20:40] Shin
    Neither I nor Jump will ever accept it!
[20:42] Kan
    Dirty? Is having a kid a dirty thing?
[20:45] Kan
    What about it is dirty?
[20:47] Shin
    Well, uh... Please stop looking
    at me with stars in your eyes.
[20:52] Shin
    Wh-Who's your father, then?
[20:54] Kan
    A banana.
[20:56] Shin
    That's not what I meant.
[20:58] Shin
    Um, whose banana?
[21:03] Kan
    When she ate too many bananas and
    puked, I came out, apparently.
[21:07] Shin
    She gave birth like King Piccolo?!
[21:09] Shin
    Is that how it goes for Yato?!
[21:11] Kan
    Nah, she said it was a technique
    she was taught on some planet.
[21:15] Kan
    Apparently, it's more like
    cloning than giving birth.
[21:17] Shin
    That's not the kind of move
    a heroine should learn!
[21:22] Shin
    Then you are...
[21:25] Shin
    Has Kagura-chan been well?
[21:27] Shin
    And Sadaharu?
[21:29] ???
    What's this?
[21:32] ???
    I asked for a weapon to kill
    the prime minister with,
[21:36] ???
    not something else for me to kill.
[21:37] Shin
    That's...
[21:39] (Flashback) Mat
    I arranged for a first-rate assassin.
[21:46] ???
    Hey.
[21:49] ???
    I'll let you guys check the
    contents of those boxes.
[21:53] ???
    Leave this to me.
[22:01] ???
    You can't tell if a weapon's
    any good until you use it.
[22:05] ???
    Show me...
[22:07] ???
    what you've done these
    past two years, Odd Jobs!
