[00:12] ---
So Maria's a teacher,
but all she eats is potato chips.
[00:16] ---
Just eating junk food is
bad for your health, you know?
[00:20] ---
It's not like we eat decent food...
[00:23] ---
Did you say something?
[00:25] ---
You travel in the company
of the great Night Tribe.
[00:29] ---
Frolicking with an agent of the
hated church can only lead to disaster.
[00:45] ---
As my other half is awake,
[00:48] ---
I too have roused from my long slumber.
[00:51] ---
You're up early, Kobato.
[00:54] ---
It looks like you've devised an
elaborate offering this morning.
[00:58] ---
It's not all for breakfast.
[01:00] ---
A lot's for lunch.
[01:01] ---
Really? What's gotten
into you, Bro... my kindred?
[01:06] ---
Does this mean you've finally
recognized my greatness and respect me?
[01:11] ---
I thought I told you yesterday...
[01:13] ---
That Maria girl doesn't eat real food,
[01:16] ---
so I thought I'd make her lunch or something.
[01:20] ---
Of course, I made enough for you too, Kobato.
[01:24] ---
So that Maria girl comes first
and my offering is an afterthought?
[01:28] ---
What was that?
[01:29] ---
Nothing!
[01:32] ---
Hey! Where are you going?
[01:33] ---
Breakfast is ready... Kobato!
[01:37] ---
Stupid brother...
[01:50] ---
QUIVER
[01:51] ---
Vigorously bursting with goodness
[01:53] ---
You know, that's surprisingly addicting
[01:55] ---
Let's get the ball rolling
while you're idly acting shy!
[01:59] ---
Let's make friends and play, yeah!
[02:07] ---
"Haganai"
[02:11] ---
I look cool, but I'm actually super lonely
[02:14] ---
(My delusions went bye, bye, bye
Best friends are a nope, nope, nope, nope)
[02:18] ---
I'm not held back any, but this isn't enough
[02:21] ---
(Is a happy life in the real world far, far, far away?
Best friends are a nope, nope, nope, nope)
[02:25] ---
If a group of unlucky
people gathered together,
[02:32] ---
Ah--I can't picture it
[02:34] ---
This situation is like stepping on a mine!
[02:40] ---
FIDGET
[02:41] ---
I totally, totally want to take a peek
[02:43] ---
I don't want to regret this 100 times
[02:45] ---
Totally toss aside and
shake off that boring pride
[02:48] ---
Unfortunately, this idea popped into my mind,
and you know, it's surprisingly addicting
[02:52] ---
Let's find some as we
clash and rattle each other!
[02:57] ---
Let's make friends and play, yeah!
[03:01] ---
I totally, totally want to take a peek
[03:04] ---
You! Toss aside and shake yourself off
[03:08] ---
Yes! Well? What do you think of that?
[03:12] ---
"This Time, the SAGA is a Serious Battle"
[03:18] ---
Hey! What are you doing here so early?
[03:20] ---
Again? Just eating potato
chips is bad for your body.
[03:24] ---
Don't worry about it!
The sisters' food is as disgusting as poo!
[03:28] ---
Look at this!
[03:30] ---
Whoa!
[03:31] ---
When'd you stock up like this?
[03:33] ---
Yozora gives them to me when I work for her!
[03:36] ---
What are you, a pack mule?
[03:38] ---
I shouldn't be surprised...
[03:39] ---
Here.
[03:44] ---
D-Did you make this, Kodaka?
[03:47] ---
You're giving it to me?
[03:49] ---
W-What are you after?
[03:51] ---
Higher social standing? Glory?
[03:53] ---
I don't need anything!
[03:55] ---
Just give me back the box when you're done.
[03:57] ---
I'll make you lunch tomorrow, too.
[04:00] ---
Why are you being so nice to me, Kodaka?
[04:03] ---
Are you really an apostle of God?
[04:06] ---
Somehow, Maria, you remind me
of my sister when she was little...
[04:10] ---
I just can't leave you alone.
[04:13] ---
Kodaka, you have a younger sister?
[04:16] ---
No wonder you seem
like the "big brother" type...
[04:19] ---
Yeah, well...
[04:20] ---
Anyway, I gotta get back to class.
[04:23] ---
Don't just eat potato chips, now.
[04:25] ---
Got it, Big Brother!
[04:29] ---
Big Brother...?
[04:31] ---
And so, rumor has it that Kodaka
eats his lunch before lunchtime.
[04:38] ---
I apologize, Aniki.
[04:40] ---
My snack didn't satisfy your hunger?
[04:43] ---
That's not it... Thank you.
[04:46] ---
Big Brother!
[04:48] ---
You know what? That lunch
you made me was super-delicious!
[04:51] ---
The potato chips that Yozora
gives me are like poo in comparison!
[04:54] ---
Poopy Yozora only knows how
to give poo! Dummy! Dummy!
[04:57] ---
Oh?!
[04:59] ---
I didn't mean it!
[04:59] ---
Potato chips are good, too!
[05:01] ---
Hmph!
[05:02] ---
Kodaka, if you're having a
little girl call you "Big Brother,"
[05:04] ---
does that mean you have
a little sister fetish?
[05:07] ---
I'm not making her call me anything!
[05:10] ---
Kodaka really is a big brother,
so I'm gonna call him that, too!
[05:20] ---
I wish I could go inside the game...
[05:24] ---
N-No!
[05:26] ---
That was only a joke... I mean,
I just wanted to try saying that.
[05:30] ---
Sena-sempai, Rika can't
get you inside the game,
[05:34] ---
but she's got a game where
you can have a similar experience.
[05:38] ---
Really?
[05:40] ---
Why do you have something like that?
[05:42] ---
After Rika helped them develop it,
they gave her a copy of the prototype.
[05:46] ---
Do you want to try it?
[05:47] ---
Yes! Yes, I do!
[05:51] ---
You put this on?
[05:52] ---
That's right. It's the
newest head-mounted display
[05:55] ---
from the international company Largehard.
[05:57] ---
When the time is ripe, they
may release it around the world.
[06:01] ---
And this is a demo version
of the exclusive software
[06:05] ---
they plan to release alongside it,
[06:08] ---
the 3D fantasy RPG, Romancing sAgA 14!
[06:11] ---
Why "Saga"?
[06:13] ---
Because the company is in Saga Prefecture.
[06:14] ---
That's the reason?
[06:15] ---
What the hell?!
[06:20] ---
It's pitch black! I can't see anything!
[06:22] ---
Please wait just a moment
while the software boots up.
[06:39] ---
Saga...
[06:40] ---
It is the final frontier.
[06:42] ---
Why?!
[06:44] ---
In order to bring an end to this
world, the reigning governor of Saga
[06:48] ---
has summoned the Prince of
Darkness from another dimension
[06:51] ---
and plotted to use his
power to destroy the Earth...
[06:55] ---
The opening is long, so
Rika is going to skip it, okay?
[06:57] ---
Hey! I'm really curious about
Valhalla Castle in Saga Prefecture!
[07:01] ---
We're skipping ahead.
[07:02] ---
First, character creation, but
all you can do is choose a job.
[07:05] ---
Pick whatever you like.
[07:06] ---
"Romancing sAgA 14"
Valhalla Castle...
[07:09] ---
"Thief"
[07:09] ---
"Trade Choices"
[07:10] ---
"Knight"
[07:11] ---
"Samurai"
[07:11] ---
Um...
[07:13] ---
"Samurai"
[07:13] ---
"Trade Choices"
[07:14] ---
"Wizard"
[07:14] ---
Maybe I'll be this...
[07:19] ---
Kodaka-sempai...
[07:23] ---
Whoa. That's some outfit!
[07:25] ---
Rika chose "Gunner"
and this is what it gave her.
[07:28] ---
Sempai, you look pretty impressive yourself.
[07:30] ---
Really?
[07:32] ---
If you select "equipment" from the
menu, you can see what you look like.
[07:38] ---
What the hell is this?!
[07:40] ---
I chose "Wizard"!
[07:42] ---
There's an urban legend on the Net that says,
[07:46] ---
"If you remain a virgin 'til the
age of 30, you can become a wizard!"
[07:50] ---
Your character is a man
who became a great wizard!
[07:53] ---
I don't wanna be that kind of wizard!
[07:54] ---
"You haven't learned any magic yet."
[07:55] ---
And this guy doesn't even know any magic!
[07:58] ---
It says "Wizard," but Rika
guesses it's in name only, huh?
[08:00] ---
That's no kind of job!
[08:02] ---
What's with your outfit?
[08:09] ---
I wouldn't talk... Sena.
[08:13] ---
W-Wait a second...
[08:16] ---
What is this?!
[08:17] ---
I chose "Blacksmith"!
[08:19] ---
Now that you mention it, it does
kinda look like a blacksmith's outfit.
[08:21] ---
It does not!
[08:23] ---
A blacksmith wears clothes
that are more refined
[08:26] ---
and a sword that's called forth by magic...
[08:29] ---
...which gracefully cuts
the enemy into pieces!
[08:31] ---
What world has a blacksmith like that?
[08:33] ---
Man... I screwed up.
[08:36] ---
This must be the job that's
least suited to me.
[08:39] ---
Quit your bitching, Meat!
[08:42] ---
What's that?!
[08:50] ---
I chose "Rose Girl."
[08:53] ---
It looks like the developer
just threw that together, huh?
[08:56] ---
But that class actually has high levels
[08:58] ---
of both attack ability and magical defense.
[09:01] ---
Well, as long as I'm strong...
[09:05] ---
So you like that, Yozora?
[09:08] ---
Hmph. Not especially...
[09:10] ---
Aniki, what do you think about mine?
[09:13] ---
Well, uh... You look strong.
[09:16] ---
You're a "Samurai," aren't you, Yukimura-san?
[09:18] ---
Wait a sec. Sena, Yozora,
and Yukimura are the tanks,
[09:22] ---
Rika is the long-distance
attacker... and what am I?
[09:25] ---
Kodaka-sempai, you're
the "slacker," Rika supposes.
[09:28] ---
I'm a "slacker," huh?
[09:31] ---
Then nobody is the healer...
[09:33] ---
I'm here!
[09:36] ---
Maria?
[09:37] ---
Maria-san, you chose "Sister," huh?
[09:40] ---
That's a rear-guard healing position.
[09:42] ---
I feel like I've seen
that before somewhere...
[09:45] ---
An acolyte of God is
always an acolyte of God!
[09:50] ---
Now that we're all here, shall we go?
[09:56] ---
Everyone, we're here.
[09:58] ---
That's Valhalla Castle,
where the Prince of Darkness is!
[10:01] ---
This offline mode is like
a tutorial that ends
[10:03] ---
once you defeat the Prince of Darkness.
[10:05] ---
The Prince of Darkness
can be defeated in a tutorial?
[10:08] ---
Well, it is a Saga Prefecture
Prince of Darkness...
[10:15] ---
Looks like we've got monsters.
[10:17] ---
What are these aliens?
[10:18] ---
They're totally disgusting...
[10:20] ---
They look just like poo!
[10:24] ---
Dragon Gobies... They're
Dragon Gobies, aren't they?!
[10:27] ---
What the hell are "Dragon Gobies"?
[10:29] ---
"Ariake Sea"
[10:29] ---
Fish that inhabit the Ariake Sea in Kyushu.
[10:32] ---
I ate 'em when we lived in Kyushu!
[10:35] ---
You ate them?
[10:37] ---
I can picture it, Aniki...
[10:39] ---
They're "Dragon Gobie Soldiers,"
the first of the small fry...
[10:43] ---
They were put into the game
because they look like aliens.
[10:46] ---
Because of the way they look...
[10:47] ---
Well, I'm gonna start a-killin'!
[10:50] ---
Wait!
[10:51] ---
Don't you feel sorry for them,
[10:52] ---
being treated like monsters
just because of the way they look?!
[10:55] ---
The Dragon Gobies didn't
ask to be born looking like this!
[10:59] ---
Please, won't you just
let them go on their way?!
[11:03] ---
You're kind, Kodaka-sempai.
[11:06] ---
You identify with their situation, don't you?
[11:09] ---
Big Brother is a good person.
[11:12] ---
Well, I guess that's just like you...
[11:16] ---
Everyone!
[11:20] ---
Eat this!
[11:22] ---
D-Dragon Gobies!
[11:24] ---
Why?! Why are you killing them?
[11:28] ---
Come on, they're gross!
[11:30] ---
Rika understands how you feel, but we
can't move on until we get rid of them!
[11:34] ---
Their deaths serve a purpose!
[11:35] ---
They'll continue to live on
inside us, as experience points!
[11:39] ---
Begone, demon!
[11:44] ---
This is samurai-like mercy.
[11:47] ---
W-Why don't they attack?
[11:50] ---
It's an unfinished product, so it looks like
[11:52] ---
they haven't programmed
the enemy attack patterns.
[11:57] ---
I-It's too sad... Poor Dragon Gobies!
[12:02] ---
They look scary, but they're delicious!
[12:08] ---
Sounds like we've leveled up.
[12:10] ---
Aniki, my skills have increased.
[12:12] ---
I've learned magic!
[12:14] ---
Did I get experience points too,
even though I didn't fight?
[12:17] ---
Yes, since we're all in the same party.
[12:18] ---
"Believing in Tomorrow"
[12:19] ---
I got a skill!
[12:21] ---
Let's see...
[12:22] ---
"Nothing will happen just from believing.
[12:25] ---
Nothing will change in reality
unless you actually take action"...
[12:31] ---
Screw you...
[12:38] ---
And so...
[12:39] ---
...we dispatched a variety
of Dragon Gobie monsters...
[12:43] ---
...and finally arrived at Valhalla Castle.
[12:54] ---
It's big...
[12:58] ---
The Prince of Darkness
is a Dragon Gobie too?!
[13:00] ---
They must've used the same model!
[13:07] ---
What kind of Prince of Darkness
catches you off-guard with an attack?!
[13:10] ---
It seems they haven't put
in the dialog for him yet!
[13:14] ---
Tough-skinned!
[13:21] ---
Sena! Are you okay?
[13:24] ---
It doesn't hurt... but I lost
almost half my hit points.
[13:28] ---
That's right! A time
like this calls for healing!
[13:30] ---
Where's Maria?
[13:33] ---
Maria... What's wrong? Maria!
[13:36] ---
Sempai, wait a moment, please.
[13:42] ---
Maria-san is sleeping on the sofa.
[13:47] ---
Useless little girl...
[13:49] ---
You can say that again!
But the fight's not interesting
[13:51] ---
unless you can succeed like this.
[13:53] ---
Meat! If I use my "Rose Guard,"
[13:55] ---
it can nullify the enemy's
slashing-type attack just once!
[13:59] ---
So don't worry, just charge him head on!
[14:01] ---
Got it!
[14:03] ---
Blasting...
[14:05] ---
...Hammer!!
[14:06] ---
Now! Yozora!
[14:10] ---
The wall graphics look
totally realistic too, don't they?
[14:14] ---
Yozora!
[14:17] ---
Sena!
[14:21] ---
Yozora...
[14:22] ---
All I did was tell her
I could nullify its attack.
[14:26] ---
I never said I'd use it on her behalf.
[14:28] ---
You told her to charge it head on!
[14:30] ---
I meant for her to charge and then die.
[14:32] ---
Hey, you!
[14:35] ---
What the hell did you do to me?!
[14:36] ---
You... You...
[14:38] ---
Huh? H-Hey!
[14:42] ---
Rose Guard!
[14:47] ---
That's amazing, Yozora!
[14:49] ---
But I can't use this
magic more than a few times!
[14:51] ---
Yukimura! Rika!
[14:52] ---
While I've got its attention,
circle around and attack!
[14:56] ---
Roger!
[14:56] ---
Understood.
[15:17] ---
Rose...
[15:19] ---
Yozora?
[15:21] ---
W-What?
[15:26] ---
Hey! Are you all right?
[15:30] ---
You... Meat!
[15:32] ---
Dummy! Dummy!
[15:33] ---
That's what you get for underestimating me!
[15:37] ---
Don't tell me...
[15:38] ---
...she was tickling Yozora's real body!
[15:48] ---
My ambition was to die
on the field of battle...
[15:51] ---
This game has balance issues...
[15:53] ---
Yukimura! Rika!
[15:59] ---
This is the end, huh?
[16:04] ---
"Believing in Tomorrow"
[16:10] ---
Bro!
[16:12] ---
Maria!
[16:14] ---
You woke up?
[16:16] ---
Are you okay?
[16:18] ---
I'm fine! Use your magic to...
[16:20] ---
How dare you? Bastard!
[16:23] ---
It was stupid of you to harm my other half!
[16:27] ---
--Now, taste this true ancestor's
[16:28] ---
--Hey, healing... magic...
[16:29] ---
--fury and know the meaning of terror!
[16:33] ---
I am the great--
[16:37] ---
You... You're not...
[16:48] ---
Maria?
[16:52] ---
K-Kobato?
[16:54] ---
This girl said she was going to save you.
[17:00] ---
My other half, I was wondering what you do
[17:03] ---
that always makes you come home late,
[17:05] ---
but I didn't expect it
to be kids' stuff like this.
[17:09] ---
Who is this girl that
looks exactly like Iris?
[17:11] ---
Kodaka, do you know her?
[17:13] ---
My little sister... Her
name is Hasegawa Kobato.
[17:18] ---
There's no way your little
sister could be this cute!
[17:21] ---
It's true!
[17:22] ---
So, Kobato, what'd you
come here for anyway?
[17:25] ---
Kindred, recently your
service to me has been lacking
[17:28] ---
as you've been amusing
yourself with these foolish mortals,
[17:32] ---
so I've come here to supervise you.
[17:35] ---
In other words, you didn't like it that
[17:37] ---
Kodaka-sempai was
putting the club ahead of you,
[17:39] ---
so you came to check it out, right?
[17:42] ---
N-Not at all!
[17:43] ---
What, does this girl have a brother complex?
[17:46] ---
What should I do? She's as
cute as Rika-chan in Mofu Mofu!
[17:49] ---
Would you stop comparing
everything to video games? It's sick!
[17:52] ---
True, I am at fault for
always coming home late.
[17:56] ---
I know!
[17:57] ---
How about if I make pork bone
broth ramen for you every Sunday?
[18:01] ---
Pork bone broth ramen?! Every Sunday?!
[18:03] ---
Will you put in a lot of garlic?!
[18:05] ---
Sure, why not?
[18:06] ---
Yay!
[18:08] ---
Well, I can do some
real cooking on my day off.
[18:12] ---
And make your lunch, too...
[18:15] ---
Lunch...
[18:16] ---
Big Brother!
[18:20] ---
Big Brother, did you
defeat the Prince of Darkness?
[18:22] ---
I'm glad you're safe!
[18:25] ---
Maria, are you talking in your sleep?
[18:27] ---
Talking in my sleep...?
[18:29] ---
Oh, is the game over already?
[18:31] ---
Sorry, Big Brother!
[18:33] ---
I wanted to protect you...
[18:37] ---
Idiot!
[18:38] ---
Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!
[18:41] ---
Idiot!!
[18:43] ---
What do you mean, "idiot"?!
[18:45] ---
If you say "idiot," you're the idiot!
[18:47] ---
Shut up, you idiot!
[18:48] ---
Who the heck are you?!
[18:50] ---
Kobato. She's my little sister.
[18:53] ---
This is your little sister, Big Brother?
[18:55] ---
You said "Big Brother" again!
[18:58] ---
I... I'm no little sister...
[19:04] ---
She's not your little sister?
[19:05] ---
She is.
[19:06] ---
You seem to be his little sister.
[19:08] ---
I am a member of the Night Tribe
and have lived for 10,000 years.
[19:11] ---
We've been at war with you
church dogs for many years now...
[19:16] ---
We're feared by the humans,
who call us "vampires"...
[19:20] ---
Vampires! I know you!
[19:23] ---
You're scary monsters!
[19:24] ---
What's a vampire doing here?
[19:26] ---
I'm here to make sure that my
other half, the blood of my blood,
[19:29] ---
doesn't get poisoned by
an agent of the church!
[19:35] ---
Perhaps it wouldn't be a bad
idea to enter this club in jest.
[19:38] ---
You're in the middle school!
[19:40] ---
There's no rule that prohibits the
middle school students from joining a club.
[19:45] ---
Well, since she's your little sister,
I guess it's not a problem...
[19:48] ---
I mean, I have no reason to be against it,
[19:52] ---
as I doubt she has any friends...
[19:55] ---
My only friend is the darkness of night...
[19:58] ---
So you don't have any friends, huh?
[20:01] ---
Why are we letting a vampire in the club?!
[20:03] ---
I'm against it!
[20:05] ---
Don't you dare lay a hand on my kindred!
[20:07] ---
Excuse me?!
[20:08] ---
Big Brother is an apostle
of God who makes me lunch!
[20:13] ---
Die!
[20:14] ---
I shall judge you in the name of God!
[20:17] ---
No, it is you who shall shrink
before my power of darkness!
[20:21] ---
This is the power of darkness
that once made a classroom shake!
[20:26] ---
Hasegawa Cootie Touch!
[20:28] ---
I-I touch you back!
[20:29] ---
Cross Barrier!
[20:30] ---
Too bad for you!
[20:31] ---
--My Hyper-Barrier is on,
[20:31] ---
--Cootie...
[20:32] ---
--so you can't get through.
[20:33] ---
--...Touch...
[20:34] ---
--That's not fair!
[20:35] ---
--It is fair! Church dog!
[20:35] ---
--Stop that already with the
"Hasegawa Cootie Touch"...
[20:38] ---
You poopy! Stupid poopy!
[20:42] ---
Shall we clean up?
[20:45] ---
Yeah.
[20:47] ---
In the end, there was no point to the game...
[20:51] ---
If you'd protected me then, the
Prince of Darkness would be toast by now!
[20:55] ---
You weren't needed there.
[20:57] ---
What's that?!
[20:59] ---
The way you howled and
waved that hammer around...
[21:01] ---
--...you certainly fit the
part of a primitive woman!
[21:01] ---
--With their squabbling,
they're no different.
[21:03] ---
--I was a blacksmith! A civilized person!
[21:04] ---
--I guess we shouldn't
play games with those two.
[21:06] ---
--Sorry, I don't understand monkey language!
[21:08] ---
--Really? Rika had a good time.
[21:09] ---
--Speak human!
[21:12] ---
It was the first time Rika played
a video game with other people,
[21:15] ---
but it was a lot of fun!
[21:31] ---
Yozora-sempai, your
scream earlier was really cute!
[21:35] ---
Rika may have a crush on you!
[21:37] ---
D-Don't call me cute!
[21:40] ---
Rose...
[21:42] ---
W-Wench!
[21:43] ---
Meat! I'll get you back for
that someday, 1,000 times over!
[22:10] ---
Bro...
[22:12] ---
My bro isn't really...
[22:36] ---
Ah, my mind is escaping
reality as ideally as imaginable
[22:42] ---
Not that it really matters
now if I... make friends
[22:46] ---
Those eyes that belittle me saying,
"You're a lonesome person on your own," bug me
[22:52] ---
So, while I was thinking
that it'd be cool...
[22:55] ---
...if only a superficial group gathered up,
[22:58] ---
They show up, one here,
one there, and gather together
[23:01] ---
The unique characters
[23:04] ---
Throw me off balance
[23:07] ---
It ticks me off! Especially that mean meat!
[23:09] ---
My chest is secretly filled with
apprehension and I feel a bit indecisive
[23:14] ---
I can't tell you what's in my heart
[23:17] ---
Am I the one disappointed by that?
[23:20] ---
Plow through the fog today!
[23:34] ---
Ever since the day I got left behind,
my maiden heart has been filled with regret
[23:41] ---
Hurry and find it--my lost heart
[23:50] ---
Vampire, take this!
[23:53] ---
As a true descendant of the
Night Tribe, I possess far greater power
[23:55] ---
than the average vampire,
so that doesn't work on me at all!
[23:58] ---
That's not fair!
[23:59] ---
I told you that doesn't work!
So knock it off, little kid!
[24:03] ---
I'm not a kid! I'm a full-fledged adult!
[24:06] ---
And I have a lot of adult knowledge!
[24:08] ---
Adult knowledge?
[24:09] ---
Like se--
[24:10] ---
Next time: "There Aren't Many
Customers at the Karaoke Box!"
[24:10] ---
Next time: "There Aren't Many
Customers at the Karaoke Box!"
[24:13] ---
When you get under the futon
covers together with the man you love
[24:15] ---
and you count the cracks
in the ceiling, that's se--
[24:17] ---
Begone, apostle of God!
