**[00:07] A**
Very nice. I can see the
picture forming in my mind.
**[00:13] M**
I know, right?
**[00:14] A**
Can we have them do our music?
**[00:16] M**
I'll ask!
**[00:18] K**
Who exactly is this?
**[00:20] M**
I only know them from online, but...
***SIGN*** Hot! Hot!!!
**[00:25] A**
That's stylish.
***SIGN*** Brought the new track and things got hot!!!
Haven't played here in a while. Still the best.
Crowd was super into it. Thank you!!
***SIGN*** Nice change of pace.
***SIGN*** Live @ Bossa Cafe
**[00:26] M**
They've been releasing tracks through
music sites for a while now,
**[00:29] M**
and have worked on indie
anime and movies before.
**[00:33] K**
Mizusaki, is that tan going to be a problem?
**[00:37] M**
It could've been,
**[00:38] M**
but I haven't been doing any
modeling jobs lately, so no sweat!
**[00:41] K**
Any offers?
**[00:43] M**
Not sure. Haven't been really
keeping up with them.
**[00:46] A**
Three of a kind!
**[00:48] K**
Mizusaki, could you accept the
occasional modeling job from now on?
**[00:53] K**
And watch the tan lines.
**[00:55] A**
What's this all about, Kanamori?
**[00:57] K**
What do you think the eizouken's
number one selling point is?
**[01:01] A**
Refined and carefully-crafted animation!
**[01:04] K**
It's Mizusaki's fame.
**[01:07] K**
Of course, she will be animating
until her hands fall off, too.
**[01:11] M**
They'll fall off?
**[01:12] K**
But the stardom of the model Tsubame Mizusaki
**[01:16] K**
dimming would be like having
one of our wings clipped.
**[01:20] K**
Incidentally, here's a promotional
plan that Mr. Kashima
**[01:23] K**
from the dandan noodle shop just sent over.

**[01:27] A**
Voice actor auditions?
**[01:28] M**
And I'm the judge?!
**[01:30] K**
Once the idea was proposed
to the chamber of commerce,
**[01:32] K**
they enthusiastically agreed, thinking it'd
be good advertising for the town.
**[01:37] M**
I don't wanna—
**[01:38] K**
You could have the starring role.
**[01:40] K**
Except I know you'd rather not.
**[01:42] K**
Which is why I'm asking for your
help with this instead.
**[01:45] M**
Well, I'll take it over being in the cast.
**[01:47] K**
I'll let them know, then.
**[01:49] A**
And if we're going to secure
music and have auditions,
**[01:52] A**
it'd help to know what the
story was going to be.
**[01:56] A**
A party!
**[01:57] A**
After hearing that music, I was
inspired to make our finale into a dance scene!
**[02:01] M**
It's a party! That seems fun! I love it!
**[02:05] M**
If we're going to be animating to music,
**[02:07] M**
we'll need to get an early demo
of the music for the dance scene!
**[02:09] K**
Why exactly are they partying?
**[02:12] A**
Maybe it's a...
**[02:13] A**
Celebration for a hard-won victory!
**[02:15] K**
"Inspired." "Maybe."
**[02:18] K**
It feels like you're just
submitting scenes you thought up
**[02:21] K**
with no thought to the overall picture.
**[02:27] K**
I don't care what the actual story is,
but it's about time you—
**[02:31] Sakaki**
It's lively in here, as usual.
**[02:34] Sakaki**
Having a little party, Kanamoney?
**[02:38] A**
Kanamoney!
**[02:40] Dotonbori**
Quiet, you!
**[02:43] K**
Did you think of another excuse to fine us?
**[02:45] Sakaki**
It's not about that.
**[02:47] Sakaki**
You've always got your mind on cash, huh?
**[02:48] K**
It's not money that I like,
it's productive activities.
**[02:52] Sakaki**
And the money?
**[02:53] K**
The money helps quantify that productivity.
**[02:56] Sakaki**
Well, there's a little problem with that...
**[03:02] Sakaki**
Turns out, the school isn't thrilled
about you making money on the outside.

**[04:39] A**
Wh-What's wrong, Kanamori?
**[04:41] M**
Are we in trouble?
**[04:43] K**
There's so damn much I can poke holes
in here, I can't bring myself to start.
**[04:50] M**
That's bad. Because the
two of us can't exactly...
**[05:01] Teacher A**
Extracurricular activities are
considered a full-fledged part of education.
**[05:05] Teacher A**
The government curriculum details
as much, along with the rules involved.
**[05:09] K**
We're fully willing to consider
any directions you have,
**[05:11] K**
if they actually serve a purpose.
**[05:12] Teacher A**
Well, it's not very educational to use
club activities to earn money, is it?
**[05:17] K**
Isn't the culture festival a means of
**[05:19] K**
securing profits from
outside of the school, too?
**[05:21] Teacher A**
That's... a special exception.
**[05:23] Teacher A**
Look, here... "Athletic,
cultural, or technical pursuits
**[05:28] Teacher A**
in order to exercise intellectual curiosity,
**[05:30] Teacher A**
cultivate a sense of responsibility,
and develop teamwork."
**[05:32] Teacher A**
That's what it says!
**[05:33] Teacher A**
We all saw your film. It was incredible!
**[05:38] Teacher A**
Especially for high school students.
**[05:40] Teacher A**
So we think what you're doing is wonderful.
**[05:42] Teacher A**
But you can't try and profit off of it.
**[05:45] Teacher A**
That makes it something else
than education. Don't you see?
**[05:48] K**
You've been avoiding explaining why,
exactly, turning a profit isn't educational.
**[05:55] Teacher A**
I have not!
**[05:57] Teacher A**
It's just that, working diligently
with your friends on something
**[06:00] Teacher A**
can provide things money can't buy!
**[06:05] K**
I'm starting to wonder if the
government curriculum guidelines
**[06:07] K**
say something about only
fools becoming teachers.
**[06:11] Dotonbori**
How could you say that?! They're all
great people! I mean, they're teachers!
**[06:15] Sakaki**
I think you might have what it
takes to be a teacher, president.
**[06:19] Dotonbori**
Y-You think?
**[06:23] Sakaki**
Let's get to the real issue.
**[06:25] Sakaki**
The bottom line is, a lot of people outside
the school, including parents,
**[06:29] Sakaki**
aren't comfortable with students
getting involved with money.
**[06:33] Sakaki**
And schools don't cope well with pressure.
**[06:35] Sakaki**
Which means they don't feel like
the risk your little operation
**[06:38] Sakaki**
might incur is worth the trouble.
**[06:41] Teacher A**
There are a lot of political
considerations for a school.
**[06:44] Teacher A**
To say nothing about the legal—
**[06:45] K**
What's the point of an educational institution
**[06:47] K**
if it won't stand up for its students?
**[06:49] K**
People who don't understand business
**[06:51] K**
will fall behind those who do,
and be worse off for it.
**[06:55] K**
Spewing out superficial pleasantries
about "dreams" and "hard work,"
**[06:58] K**
while turning away from anything
that might cause a headache.
**[07:01] K**
Is that your idea of teaching?
**[07:03] Teacher B**
We just can't have you doing whatever you want.
**[07:05] Teacher B**
The school has to consider its
relationship with the town, too.
**[07:08] Teacher B**
What would you be using this money for, anyway?
**[07:11] Teacher B**
For all your talk about how this is
some high-minded business exercise,
**[07:15] Teacher B**
aren't you just using the school's
name to benefit yourself?
**[07:20] K**
Indeed, I am.
**[07:22] K**
I'll use anything that helps.
Call it a "means to survive."
**[07:26] Teacher B**
You're all still students.
**[07:28] Teacher B**
Aren't there things your club
could only be doing while you're still here?
**[07:31] Teacher B**
We all want you to cherish
the time you have.
**[07:34] Teacher B**
There's no need to rush into adulthood.
**[07:36] Teacher B**
Because once you've grown up, you'll have to—
**[07:37] K**
Too optimistic.
**[07:39] K**
"The effort itself was the reward."
**[07:41] K**
It's an extracurricular cliche,
**[07:42] K**
and people who indulge in it learn
the hard truth when they're adults.
**[07:46] K**
Besides, we didn't ask the chamber
of commerce to fund the production,
**[07:50] K**
we proposed a joint operation with them.
**[07:53] K**
And they decided to accept.
**[07:56] Teacher B**
I think we're done here.
**[07:58] Teacher B**
The point is, you're free
to participate in the event,
**[08:00] Teacher B**
but you can't accept any money earned at it.
**[08:01] Teacher B**
Understood?

You see, Kanamoney, once you're
directing your third production,
**[09:56] A**
you start to understand what the people want.
**[09:58] K**
And where are we with the story, Director?
**[10:00] A**
Got it right here!
**[10:03] A**
An enemy prisoner of war comes
to understand human kindness,
**[10:07] A**
changes sides, and fights
alongside humanity!

What does the enemy look like?
And who are they?
**[10:31] M**
They're in UFOs, so they've
gotta be aliens, right?
**[10:33] A**
P-Probably?
**[10:34] K**
The enemy fortress appears
out of Lake Shibahama,
**[10:37] K**
and has the same kind of design
as the human towers. Why is that?
**[10:42] A**
Actually, why were the UFOs attacking again?
**[10:45] A**
Are they invading the Earth?

Figure it out!
**[10:49] K**
Your directions dictate what
the entire staff is doing!
**[10:52] K**
You can fret your weird head off,
but the clock is ticking!
**[10:56] K**
If the storyboards take too long, that puts
**[10:57] K**
extra pressure on every
other step in the process!
**[11:00] K**
Understand?!

Tomorrow from yesterday, which was Thursday.
**[12:01] A**
It's still Friday.
**[12:03] D**
Oh, man... so it's not tomorrow yet.
**[12:08] M**
Did you seriously think a whole day
passed while you were asleep?
**[12:10] D**
Well, I've never napped before.
**[12:13] A**
Wait, that was a lifetime first?!
**[12:15] M**
Were you doing something on Saturday?
**[12:25] A**
Good morning, comrades!
**[12:27] M**
Morning!
**[12:29] D**
You're sure you want to come along?
**[12:31] K**
Why exactly are we meeting up on bikes?!
**[12:34] A**
Because we're going sound hunting!
**[12:36] A**
Let's hunt some sounds!
**[12:41] K**
Work on the storyboards!
**[12:42] K**
And figure out who the bad guys are!
**[12:44] K**
Why are you tagging along on a sound hunt?!
That's the audio director's job!
**[12:48] A**
The general director's job is

Talk big after you finish

I would've been fine on

You clearly don't mean anything.
**[13:00] A**
But...
**[13:01] K**
No ifs, ands, or buts.
**[13:03] A**
Still...
**[13:04] K**
No, not still! Moving!
**[13:06] A**
I-I'm just looking for
ideas for the storyboards!
**[13:08] A**
It's a hunt of my own.
**[13:10] K**
What hunt?
**[13:11] A**
Scenario hunting!
**[13:14] A**
I wanted one last idea to put a
bow on the setup for the project.
**[13:18] D**
I don't mind the company,
as long as you help out.
**[13:21] A**
Sounds good!

Why am I here?

Let'sa go!

This had better be productive.

**[14:13] M**
I can see the school!
**[14:16] A**
I've been curious about
this place for a long time.
**[14:19] K**
And this has something to do
with the Shibahama-UFO Battle?
**[14:23] A**
Probably!
**[14:26] M**
No roof, huh?

Interesting to catch a glimpse up close.

This is one of the things I'm here for.
**[14:43] M**
It's kinda like a tourist spot...
**[14:49] A**
Oh, wow! It's a pendulum!
**[14:52] M**
I wonder what this place was?
**[14:53] A**
Looks to me an awful lot like an alien
base disguised as a clock tower.
**[14:58] M**
It's so big! And you can
see the back of the clock!
**[15:01] K**
I'd wager the owners or some
politician thought they'd
**[15:03] K**
fix the place up and turn it
into a tourist destination.
**[15:08] A**
This building just gave me an idea!

**[15:11] A**
It was once a luxurious home to wealthy tenants!
**[15:13] A**
And inside the clock, high atop it,
a massive treasure is hidden!
**[15:19] A**
Thus...
**[15:25] A**
An alliance of thieves has targeted it!
**[15:34] A**
They face...
**[15:36] A**
The bodyguard hired by the building's owners.
**[15:39] M**
So a security guard, basically.
**[15:42] A**
The last scene is a duel atop the
grass field that grows on the roof...
**[15:45] K**
Stop. Hold it right there.
**[15:47] M**
This is one huge clock!
**[15:50] A**
How about that concept? It'd make
for a great 15-minute short!
**[15:53] K**

You take the "K" from "kinetic

***SIGN*** K
**[16:07] A**
It's a DEW the Imperial Army

**[16:11] A**
A Directed-Energy Weapon!
**[16:14] D**
Those are urban legends, right?
**[16:15] A**
But then, it turns out, they're real!
**[16:18] A**
And maybe this is the forgotten
laboratory where it was worked on!
**[16:22] K**
Gonna stop you right there again.
**[16:23] K**
Get back on topic with our current project.
**[16:25] A**
I feel a guiding hand here...
**[16:27] A**
This time, we're working something
we were destined to make!
**[16:36] A**
Essentially...
**[16:37] A**
In our club room, on the
other side of the coast,
**[16:41] A**
the subject for an exposure
test was being stored.
**[16:44] A**
Something was fired from this side...
**[16:46] A**
Which lit something in the eizouken club room
**[16:49] A**
that kicked those fans we have
into gear, to awaken something!
**[16:54] M**
Asakusa's gone crazy!
***SIGN*** K
**[16:56] A**
I just figured out the
connection to my storyboards!
**[16:59] A**
A mecha to fight those UFOs was
developed right where we stand!
**[17:03] A**
Basically, this was the base
for the Shibahama military!
**[17:06] M**
That sounds good to me.
**[17:08] A**
See, Kanamori? This bit of sound
hunting paid fine dividends!
**[17:12] D**
Crap, my target!
**[17:13] D**
Everybody, gimme a hand!
***SIGN*** K
**[17:16] D**
Kanamori, get the fluffy thing from my bag.
**[17:19] D**
Asakusa, set up the tripod!
**[17:21] A**
Roger Wilco!
**[17:25] K**
Is this it?
**[17:26] D**
Mizusaki, your jacket's kinda noisy.
**[17:28] M**
Really?
**[17:36] D**
Almost time. Nobody move a muscle.
**[18:13] D**
Good work, everyone. That went smoothly.
**[18:17] A**
That was nerve-wracking!
**[18:18] D**
I finally got it!
**[18:21] A**
I'm surprised you didn't have it already.
***SIGN*** K
**[18:23] D**
There's an old one in the club's collection,
**[18:25] D**
but the sound has degraded with time.
**[18:28] D**
But even though everything else is
in ruins, this bell still rings out.
**[18:33] K**
It's probably just been forgotten about.
**[18:36] A**
It continues to ring for some reason?
**[18:42] A**
That's magnificent!
**[18:44] A**
All right,
**[18:45] A**
the bell that continues to chime for
some reason has given me a new idea!
**[18:49] K**
That's enough out of you!
**[19:06] M**
I wanna go next!
**[19:07] Sakaki**
Hey, eizouken.
**[19:10] A**
The class president!
**[19:11] Sakaki**
Uh, no. I'm actually the secretary.
**[19:16] Sakaki**
So, did you figure out what to
do about that stuff from before?
**[19:19] K**
The copyrights of works belong
to their individual creators.
**[19:22] K**
We'll enter Comet A as the film club,
**[19:26] K**
and then any sales and collection of
cash will be done on an individual basis.
**[19:30] Sakaki**
Couldn't you just enter a contest?
**[19:32] K**
A contest would be good for our reputation,
**[19:35] K**
but it'd take too long to pay dividends.
**[19:37] K**
An event like this gets us instant
recognition, an influx of income,
**[19:41] K**
and market research, all in one.
**[19:45] Sakaki**
The eizouken's agenda is production
and research, isn't it?
**[19:49] K**
Management is a type of research, too.
**[19:52] K**
The baseball club does that kind of thing.
**[19:54] K**
They keep records of their sales,
organize the data, and then report on it.
**[19:59] K**
It's only natural that popularity
**[20:01] K**
would be the standard by which
club activities are measured.
**[20:06] Sakaki**
You could manage all that inside
the school's jurisdiction.
**[20:08] K**
It wouldn't be anything more
than a simulation, then.
**[20:11] Sakaki**
Well, it's not exactly a model for society.
**[20:14] Sakaki**
Schools are a world unto themselves.
**[20:16] Sakaki**
Step too far outside of that world,
and you won't be protected anymore.
**[20:20] K**
What're you getting at?
**[20:24] A**
Behold!
**[20:28] A**
We're moving beyond simple rotation!
**[20:31] A**
Fans, drills...
**[20:32] A**
propeller skirts, ducted fans, and chainsaws!
**[20:37] A**
It's time we reconsider all
of these spinning machines!
**[20:40] Sakaki**
What is this thing?
**[20:41] K**
Her job.
**[20:42] Sakaki**
This?
**[20:44] A**
This motion is more like a gear.
**[20:46] M**
Like in a clock?
**[20:52] A**
What is this? Wavy grass?
**[20:54] D**
No, it's wavy sound.
**[20:59] D**
You layer it like this, the
same way you would an image.
**[21:04] A**
I can hear it.
**[21:09] A**
You knock it around, layer it,
clip it up, and reattach it...
**[21:12] Sakaki**
What kind of tool is it supposed to be?
**[21:15] A**
I'll think that up.
**[21:28] A**
I've got it!
**[21:31] A**
This equipment is said to be able
to transmit wishes and gratitude
**[21:33] A**
from the surface world to the underwater one!
***SIGN*** A device (ritual tool) that was created by using machine technology
originally designed for milling
***SIGN*** Top is a flat surface
***SIGN*** Cylinder is made from bamboo,
cut into quarters
***SIGN*** Jet
Sometimes depicted as going up
and down
***SIGN*** Range of rotation is
90 degrees, won't turn
all the way at once
**[21:39] A**
And the water responds in kind by
granting the surface world its blessing.
***SIGN*** Wing
***SIGN*** Axel catches water,
causing the paddle to rotate
***SIGN*** How the movement works
***SIGN*** Axel
***SIGN*** Stabilizer
***SIGN*** Teeth will catch if there's
ever reverse rotation.
Lower axles also rotate.
***SIGN*** Flow of water
***SIGN*** Direction of piston movement
***SIGN*** It's pushed in an undulating motion,
so the axle moves upwards
***SIGN*** The paddles move left and right,
like a pendulum, when hit by
the flow of water
***SIGN*** Raised up by water's pull
on the paddle, which is
connected to the axe
**[21:43] A**
This device is what enables
that mutual exchange!
***SIGN*** Output
***SIGN*** Output
***SIGN*** Input
**[21:45] A**
The tradition behind it is eventually forgotten,
**[21:49] A**
but the technology itself evolves
into becoming the basis for
**[21:51] A**
clockwork machinery, and is passed on.
**[21:53] K**
And the bells?
**[21:54] A**
Festival rites.
**[21:56] A**
They purify people of their evil,
**[21:57] A**
and call upon the water for a bountiful harvest.
**[22:10] M**
The chime!
**[22:59] K**
I'm curious...
**[23:01] K**
Does this have anything to
do with our current project?
**[23:05] M**
Did you figure out how to connect this to it?
**[23:06] D**
You're really gonna need
to decide on the villains,
**[23:08] D**
or I won't be able to make
much progress with the sounds.
**[23:10] K**
What about the climax? Have you figured
out the identity of the bad guys?
**[23:14] A**
Not yet...
**[23:15] K**
And what are they after?! I thought you
were gonna put a bow on the concept?!
**[23:23] Sakaki**
I forgot that they're in their own world, too.
