[00:11] ---
    This chemical sweetness!
[00:13] ---
    I love it!
[00:13] ---
    Don't eat too much of that stuff, Mia.
[00:16] ---
    "Enjoy the little day-to-day
    happinesses while you can."
[00:19] ---
    My dad told me that before he died.
[00:23] ---
    Want some, Julia?
[00:25] ---
    No.
[00:26] ---
    You know I'm on a low-carb diet.
[00:33] ---
    Anyway,
[00:34] ---
    Rapture's back on the front lines.
[00:38] ---
    Huh...
[00:39] ---
    Tamara is still with the Spetsnaz, right?
[00:42] ---
    Yes.
[00:43] ---
    Rapture,
[00:45] ---
    War Nurse,
[00:46] ---
    Phoenix...
[00:47] ---
    Four of the Magical Five have
    returned to the battlefield.
[00:51] ---
    So now it's just Peipei, huh?
[00:55] ---
    I kind of want to see her,
[00:57] ---
    and I kind of don't.
[00:59] ---
    You may get your chance
    to see Rapture and War Nurse.
[01:03] ---
    I see.
[01:04] ---
    Your next mission is probably
    going to take you to Japan.
[01:11] ---
    I can't wait.
SIGN    Wish Upon a Star
[02:50] ---
    Excuse me,
[02:51] ---
    um...
[02:53] ---
    I can't speak English.
[02:57] ---
    What?
[02:59] ---
    Um...
[03:00] ---
    Do you need help?
[03:03] ---
    Thank you!
[03:06] ---
    I want to go to this hotel.
[03:08] ---
    It's just down that road.
[03:11] ---
    Okay?
[03:12] ---
    Okay!
[03:13] ---
    Thank you!
[03:17] ---
    Thank you!
[03:19] ---
    Bye-bye!
[03:22] ---
    Oh no!
[03:26] ---
    Thanks for coming to my study group today!
[03:29] ---
    Kurumi says she'll be late.
[03:31] ---
    Nozo-chan said the same thing.
[03:33] ---
    Okay,
[03:34] ---
    let's start without them.
[03:35] ---
    Okay.
[03:37] ---
    This place has a ton of books, huh?
[03:41] ---
    Lots of plays and books about drama.
[03:44] ---
    I can tell you're in the literature club.
[03:45] ---
    You know,
[03:46] ---
    when you've read enough books,
    you start to want to write one.
[03:50] ---
    I'm hoping I can be a
    scriptwriter when I grow up.
[03:55] ---
    Is that your dream?
[03:57] ---
    Um...
[04:00] ---
    What's your dream, Asuka-san?
[04:05] ---
    My dream...
[04:13] ---
    I don't really like myself that much...
[04:18] ---
    So I don't really have a dream.
[04:22] ---
    You're wonderful, Asuka-san!
[04:26] ---
    So don't say you don't like yourself.
[04:43] ---
    Nozo-chan, knock it off!
[04:46] ---
    H-Hi!
[04:48] ---
    Kurumi?
[04:50] ---
    Asuka-san!
[04:50] ---
    Are you okay?
[04:52] ---
    Did anything weird happen
    between you and her?
[04:55] ---
    Anything... weird?
[05:00] ---
    Um...
[05:02] ---
    I think this is...
[05:05] ---
    You use this formula to solve that one.
[05:09] ---
    Oh, I see.
[05:11] ---
    I can't do this! It's exhausting!
[05:14] ---
    It hasn't even been 30 minutes, Nozo-chan.
[05:17] ---
    But I'm tired!
[05:20] ---
    I know!
[05:21] ---
    Once this is over,
[05:23] ---
    want to go to the Tanabata festival?
[05:24] ---
    Tanabata festival?
[05:26] ---
    They're doing it at the shopping
    district in front of the station.
[05:29] ---
    There're lots of little stalls,
[05:31] ---
    and I guess it might be fun.
[05:34] ---
    I haven't been to a thing like that in ages.
[05:37] ---
    Then let's go!
[05:39] ---
    We can study better when we've
    got something to look forward to!
[05:42] ---
    I'm fine,
[05:44] ---
    but I think Kurumi had something to do.
[05:47] ---
    My schedule just opened up!
[05:49] ---
    I'm prioritizing seeing you in a yukata...
[05:52] ---
    I mean, making memories with my friends.
[05:54] ---
    I-I see.
[05:57] ---
    Okay, I guess we can.
[05:58] ---
    Hooray! Festival time!
[06:06] ---
    Leonid Greenburg...
[06:08] ---
    A Jewish-American mathematician.
[06:12] ---
    He was killed in Mexico,
[06:14] ---
    and his brother's in Japan.
[06:16] ---
    Leonid's younger brother, Jerome,
[06:19] ---
    is a millionaire who runs an IT company.
[06:23] ---
    Or, well, he's retired now
    and living a comfortable life.
[06:27] ---
    He was.
[06:29] ---
    Now nobody can get a hold of him.
[06:33] ---
    The CIA's Japanese branch sent
    up a micro drone to look into his room,
[06:37] ---
    and found him embedded in a cube.
[06:41] ---
    So a fairly powerful, illegal Magical Girl
     is involved in this matter, then?
[06:47] ---
    Or a magical mercenary.
[06:49] ---
    Those Babel Brigade guys?
[06:52] ---
    Good, this'll be fun.
[06:54] ---
    What will you do if you run into Rapture
    and War Nurse during your investigation?
[07:00] ---
    I won't let them get in the way of my work.
[07:03] ---
    That's all.
SIGN    Shin Ookubo Terror Incident Were Illegal Mages Involved?
[07:08] ---
    Regarding the possibility
    that illegal mages
[07:11] ---
    were involved in the Shin
    Ookubo terrorist incident,
[07:15] ---
    opposition parties are blaming
    the government's weak—
[07:16] ---
    Asuka and Kurumi-chan are late.
[07:19] ---
    I think they should be here soon.
[07:24] ---
    S-Sorry.
[07:25] ---
    I told her I didn't need
    a fancy yukata, but...
[07:28] ---
    Kurumi insisted...
[07:30] ---
    I think it suits you best!
[07:32] ---
    I agree!
[07:36] ---
    Let's go, then!
[07:38] ---
    It's really close!
[07:49] ---
    It's so exciting, going to
     a festival with everybody!
[07:53] ---
    Huh?
[07:54] ---
    Where's Nozomi?
[07:56] ---
    I can't eat anymore...
[07:58] ---
    You eat too fast!
[08:00] ---
    When did she eat all that?
[08:02] ---
    I'll watch Nozomi-san.
[08:04] ---
    We'll catch up with you later.
[08:07] ---
    Thanks.
[08:08] ---
    Sorry to ask.
[08:13] ---
    Your lap feels so good.
[08:16] ---
    It feels like you're used
    to taking care of people.
[08:20] ---
    Maybe I am.
[08:22] ---
    Ever since you two transferred here,
[08:26] ---
    every day has been such fun.
[08:29] ---
    You're right.
[08:31] ---
    You know,
[08:33] ---
    Asuka and Sayako kind
    of look like a couple, don't they?
[08:39] ---
    As her childhood friend,
    it's kind of a good thing,
[08:42] ---
    but it also makes me kind of sad.
[08:49] ---
    Let's get going.
[08:52] ---
    But my stomach still hurts.
[08:55] ---
    I don't care!
[09:10] ---
    Are you okay?
[09:12] ---
    Yes...
[09:22] ---
    Excuse me.
[09:24] ---
    Yoshino-san?
[09:25] ---
    Hi there.
[09:29] ---
    You guys?
[09:39] ---
    Why is M Squad here?
[09:41] ---
    I said I was off today.
[09:43] ---
    So are we.
[09:45] ---
    Iizuka-san gave us
    the rest of the day off.
[09:50] ---
    He told us to go enjoy the festival with you.
[09:58] ---
    Part of the job when you work for
    the JSDF is taking breaks when you can.
[10:03] ---
    Hey,
[10:05] ---
    Asuka!
[10:06] ---
    Introduce us!
[10:08] ---
    You know them?
[10:10] ---
    Are they relatives of yours or something?
[10:13] ---
    No, we're...
[10:16] ---
    That was a really hard punch.
[10:20] ---
    We go to the same training
    gym as Asuka and Kurumi.
[10:25] ---
    Oh, I see!
[10:28] ---
    I know!
[10:29] ---
    Why don't we all go around together?
[10:32] ---
    We'll use our grown-up powers to pay!
[10:34] ---
    Hooray!
[10:36] ---
    She never learns.
[10:54] ---
    When did it get so late?
[10:56] ---
    Where did that weird group of people go?
[10:58] ---
    They're in line to get beer and yakitori.
[11:00] ---
    Oh...
[11:07] ---
    They look like normal teenagers
    when they're like that.
[11:13] ---
    We don't look like soldiers
     right now ourselves.
[11:16] ---
    Soldiers, huh?
[11:18] ---
    We enlisted voluntarily
    and we're paid for by tax dollars.
[11:22] ---
    We're not like them.
[11:26] ---
    What will happen on our next mission?
[11:30] ---
    I don't know,
[11:31] ---
    but it won't be easier than what
    we've dealt with up until now.
[11:36] ---
    I hope this isn't our last summer vacation.
[11:39] ---
    Don't even say stuff like that!
[11:45] ---
    There's been so much
    violence in the news lately.
[11:50] ---
    What's gotten into you?
[11:52] ---
    When I'm in big crowds,
[11:54] ---
    I start having flashbacks...
[11:56] ---
    To when the Magical Girl saved me.
[12:00] ---
    There was a big fight
    in Ookubo a while back, too.
[12:05] ---
    I hope the peace lasts forever.
[12:08] ---
    But I think it won't.
[12:12] ---
    What do you think the
    end of the world feels like?
SIGN    Hokkaido
    Buttered Potatoes
SIGN    Ice
SIGN    Ice
[12:18] ---
    I remember how scared I was
    when the Distonian War happened.
[12:23] ---
    Yeah...
[12:24] ---
    All the schools shut down.
[12:26] ---
    We went to be with our families
    in the countryside.
[12:28] ---
    There were urban conflicts
    happening all over the world then.
[12:33] ---
    I saw on TV that the Disas wanted
    to use humanity as an energy source.
[12:40] ---
    If the Disas Beast, their leader,
    had fully manifested itself,
[12:46] ---
    every army on Earth would've
    been wiped out in 36 hours.
[12:53] ---
    Don't worry!
[12:55] ---
    They say that every army in the world
    is learning how to deal with magical combat.
[12:59] ---
    And there are more Magical Girls now, too.
[13:05] ---
    I'm going to walk around by myself for a bit.
[13:19] ---
    A peace protected
    by Magical Girls, huh?
[13:30] ---
    Oh, you're the girl from earlier...
[13:31] ---
    Thanks for your help!
[13:33] ---
    Your kimono is very beautiful!
[13:36] ---
    Thank you.
[13:38] ---
    By the way, what is this?
[13:41] ---
    Oh,
[13:42] ---
    that's a Tanabata decoration.
[13:44] ---
    It's a Japanese tradition.
[13:46] ---
    It's said that if you write your
    wish on one, it will come true.
[13:50] ---
    What did you wish for?
[13:53] ---
    Oh, no,
[13:54] ---
    I don't have any wishes.
[13:57] ---
    That's wrong!
[13:58] ---
    A kid needs to have wishes!
[14:01] ---
    But I don't know what to wish for.
[14:04] ---
    Then you need to find something!
[14:11] ---
    Listen.
[14:13] ---
    A kid's duty is to be happy.
[14:15] ---
    Got it?
[14:17] ---
    Yeah.
[14:19] ---
    If you don't have a wish,
[14:20] ---
    then wish to be happy.
[14:23] ---
    Then you'll find something for sure.
[14:25] ---
    Yeah.
[14:33] ---
    Um, why did you come to Japan?
[14:35] ---
    Tourism?
[14:37] ---
    I'm looking for someone.
[14:39] ---
    Looking for someone?
[14:41] ---
    A child I was separated from a long time ago.
[14:46] ---
    Asuka-san!
[14:49] ---
    Tanabata decorations, huh?
[14:50] ---
    I'll write one, too!
[15:01] ---
    Hey!
[15:02] ---
    Stop spacing out
    and pay attention to us!
[15:08] ---
    Don't jump on Asuka-san!
[15:10] ---
    Let go of her!
[15:12] ---
    Nozo-chan!
[15:14] ---
    The dog's bitten down on the decoy.
[15:18] ---
    It will arrive in Yokota
    tomorrow morning.
[15:21] ---
    Roger.
[15:34] ---
    So this building is where
    Jerome's penthouse is located?
[15:39] ---
    There's nobody here, right?
[15:41] ---
    We had the CIA seal it off.
[15:44] ---
    Well done.
[15:48] ---
    Anyway, nobody's concerned
    that Jerome went radio silent?
[15:53] ---
    His secretary was cleaning
    the place and paying the rent.
[15:59] ---
    This is her?
[16:01] ---
    The Japanese police haven't figured
    out what's going on here yet.
[16:04] ---
    We should be the first
    ones to look at the scene.
[16:10] ---
    Just Cause, let's go.
[16:19] ---
    What's it look like inside?
[16:21] ---
    I won't know too much until I'm in there,
[16:24] ---
    but if nothing else, it looks like
    there's nobody alive in there.
[16:28] ---
    Okay.
[16:29] ---
    Entry.
[16:38] ---
    That's...
[16:39] ---
    A cube.
[16:41] ---
    The same as we saw in Mexico.
[16:43] ---
    The corpse is almost mummified.
[16:45] ---
    It's been a minimum of three
    months since he died, huh?
[16:48] ---
    I'll get a DNA sample.
[16:51] ---
    You two continue your search.
[16:55] ---
    Hey...
[16:56] ---
    Why do you think they
    didn't try to hide the body?
[17:00] ---
    They wanted us to find it, right?
[17:02] ---
    That's been my impression
    ever since Mexico.
[17:07] ---
    It's so damn hot in here.
[17:10] ---
    Did he turn the heater on?
[17:23] ---
    What's this?
[17:24] ---
    "He who laughs last, laughs best."
[17:28] ---
    It's our motto as Magical Girls.
[17:38] ---
    What's this?
[17:39] ---
    A biological weapon?
[17:41] ---
    The heat and Ayahuasca smoke
[17:43] ---
    will be empowered
    by my desire for revenge,
[17:46] ---
    and become a jaguar that burns you to ash.
[17:49] ---
    A magical mercenary?
[17:52] ---
    That's right.
[18:00] ---
    At point-blank range, I can
    break through shields.
[18:03] ---
    I learned that in the last war.
[18:05] ---
    Stop talking!
[18:11] ---
    Gotcha!
[18:14] ---
    Even my bullets can't break her shield?
[18:16] ---
    It's so strong!
[18:24] ---
    I remember.
[18:25] ---
    You're Crescent Moon Sandino, aren't you?
[18:28] ---
    A Colombian terrorist.
[18:30] ---
    I remember now.
[18:32] ---
    She gets high off a combination of drugs
    and heat to better absorb magical power.
[18:36] ---
    It's a tactic commonly used
    by Colombian shamans.
[18:40] ---
    So this heat and fog are your barrier?
[18:43] ---
    I'm surprised you figured that out so fast.
[18:45] ---
    You've done your homework.
[18:48] ---
    My family died during a
    US bombing raid on the Disas.
[18:53] ---
    And I'm getting revenge.
[18:55] ---
    That doesn't make it okay
    for you to be a terrorist!
[19:07] ---
    A Voorhees-class?
[19:09] ---
    Swap for magical rounds.
[19:10] ---
    Roger!
[19:14] ---
    Your bombs killed 300 US soldiers
     in the Sudan!
[19:19] ---
    And you're going to join them!
[19:43] ---
    And if you hate the Disas,
    why kill Magical Girls?
[19:49] ---
    My daughter died.
[19:51] ---
    The humans were the ones who
    killed her in that war.
[19:57] ---
    The Colombian front was a horror show.
[19:59] ---
    The military was out of control.
[20:01] ---
    People died needlessly.
[20:03] ---
    Don't try to write it off
    with just a few words!
[20:05] ---
    My war isn't over!
[20:07] ---
    My war continues until my despair
    has swallowed up the whole world!
[20:12] ---
    You're a grown-up!
[20:14] ---
    Don't whine to a kid about your problems!
[20:18] ---
    Julia!
[20:20] ---
    Roger.
[20:38] ---
    I guess we can't question
    you with those wounds.
[20:43] ---
    I'm glad...
[20:45] ---
    I didn't have to kill a kid.
[20:48] ---
    Don't even try for a deathbed redemption.
[20:51] ---
    You're just a terrorist.
[20:54] ---
    Just like the one who killed
    my mom and dad with a bomb.
[21:01] ---
    You're right.
[21:26] ---
    So maybe the Babel Brigade
    hired Sandino and she did it?
[21:31] ---
    No, that's not right.
[21:35] ---
    Only one of the Magical Five
    would've known about that phrase.
[21:54] ---
    Is something wrong?
[21:57] ---
    About my dream...
[21:59] ---
    I'm afraid I don't know what
    it means for me to be happy,
[22:02] ---
    or to have dreams.
[22:06] ---
    But...
[22:08] ---
    I can protect someone,
[22:10] ---
    and support someone else's dreams.
[22:13] ---
    Maybe that's my dream right now.
[22:19] ---
    Asuka-san...
[22:22] ---
    Asuka-san!
[22:24] ---
    Good morning!
[22:26] ---
    Morning!
[22:32] ---
    Maybe I can find my happiness through that.
[24:12] ---
    Why does a JSDF special forces
    unit use a maid café as their base, chu?
[24:16] ---
    They couldn't come up with
    anything better than that, chu?
[24:19] ---
    Next time: "Magical Girl
    Operations Development Unit."
SIGN    Magical Girl Operations Development Unit
[24:21] ---
    Shady goings-on to the north and south!
[24:24] ---
    It's getting busy around here, chu!
