Specifically, the development department that churns out the evil monsters that have to fight the good heroes. Located in the deep underground laboratories of Secret Society Agastia, its scientists do more than just research and experiments. They also have to secure development budgets, manage schedules, and gain the approval of executives through the daily battle known as... the presentation! Touka Kuroitsu works as a rank-and-file researcher at Agastia. With Dr. Sadamaki by her side, can she overcome the many trials thrown her way to create a brilliant hero-slaying monster?! Standing in their way is their mortal enemy, the anonymous but unrivaled transforming hero, Divine Swordsman Blader! This story chronicles a new perspective from the professionals who fight hard trying to develop a monster that can beat a superhero!

[02:17] Akashic     Yes, excellent. [02:19] Akashic     But Megistus, does Agastia not     struggle with its own hero problem? [02:26] Megistus     A problem no longer. [02:28] Megistus     Our development department is     already preparing a new monster. [02:33] Akashic     Ah. [02:34] Akashic     I hope to see it. [02:36] Megistus     You shall indeed, soon enough. [02:39] Megistus     Yes... a monster so terrifying,     it will shake the world to its core! [02:46] Kuroitsu     Doctor... What you're proposing... [02:49] Kuroitsu     It's too terrifying to comprehend! [02:51] Sadamaki     You needn't be frightened.

[06:46] (Flashback) Kuroitsu     Then would you get writing already?! [06:48] Kuroitsu     I've got to fake my way     through before they catch on! [06:52] Kuroitsu     Or before we put an end to Blader, [06:54] Kuroitsu     they'll be putting an end to my salary!

[07:38] Kuroitsu     I know it was a last-minute rush job, [07:40] Kuroitsu     but how could you stick me with     such an anemic monster design? [07:42] Kuroitsu     And yet... I must see it through! [07:46] Kuroitsu     As you can see, its grand visage perfectly     reflects our organization's status [07:51] Kuroitsu     as a leader in the fight     for world domination!

[07:59] Kuroitsu     This strategic design will     make Divine Swordsman Blader [08:02] Kuroitsu     assume it's an old man in a mascot suit, [08:05] Kuroitsu     thereby dropping his guard!

SIGN    Absolute Zero Chief of Staff     Megistus [08:22] Megistus     Questionable judgment     will affect group morale. [08:25] Megistus     However, the presentation     is not yet complete. [08:28] Megistus     Please continue, Miss Kuroitsu. [08:31] Kuroitsu     It's time! [08:34] Narrator     Agastia's most intelligent member     and supreme operational authority, [08:38] Narrator     Chief of Staff Megistus. [08:40] Narrator     Due to always putting in triple     the work of anyone else, [08:43] Narrator     he is also known as     Thrice-Greatest Trismegistus. [08:45] Narrator     He serves as Agastia's backbone. [08:48] Kuroitsu     I must surmount any trials     he throws before me, [08:50] Kuroitsu     or my salary will never survive! [08:55] Kuroitsu     A presentation is a battle. [08:57] Kuroitsu     Though my current forces might     leave me at a disadvantage... [09:00] Kuroitsu     Once the battle has begun, it must be won! [09:03] Kuroitsu     Contrary to his appearance, [09:07] Kuroitsu     Nesuo possesses a tremendous     combination of power and endurance! [09:10] Nesuo     Ness! [09:12] Kuroitsu     He's a perfectly worthy opponent     for Divine Swordsman Blader! [09:15] Megistus     Tremendous, you say? [09:17] Megistus     Yet you've failed to provide even a comparison graph between him [09:20] Megistus     and previous monsters,     let alone hard statistics! [09:25] Kuroitsu     We're working on those right now! [09:28] Kuroitsu     But you'll see that the proposal [09:30] Kuroitsu     does mention improvements to     the Nessie Blade's construction, [09:33] Kuroitsu     based on data from previous monsters! [09:36] Megistus     "Nessie Blade"? [09:38] Megistus     Don't you find that naming scheme     rather simplistic and trite? [09:45] Megistus     And the concept is flimsy     right out of the gate! [09:47] Megistus     What does a sword have to do     with the Loch Ness Monster? [09:52] Megistus     It's also redundant in light of     Divine Swordsman Blader's weapon! [09:56] Megistus     At least make it feminine     and call it Nesuko, [10:00] Megistus     creating a pun with the Japanese     name of Loch Ness, "Nesu-ko"! [10:05] Kuroitsu     That would have been... a better idea! [10:11] Megistus     I believe we're finished here. [10:14] Kuroitsu     No... We're not! [10:16] Megistus     Oh? You wish to continue the fight? [10:20] Kuroitsu     The key to a successful monster presentation     is believing in that monster. [10:23] Kuroitsu     I can't convince them it's strong     if I don't believe it myself. [10:28] Kuroitsu     But how can I have faith in     such a last-minute monster? [10:32] Kuroitsu     In that case... [10:33] Kuroitsu     "Nesuo" is merely its larval stage! [10:36] Kuroitsu     Once Divine Swordsman Blader     inflicts sufficient damage upon it, [10:39] Kuroitsu     a new monster shall burst out from within, [10:42] Kuroitsu     resistant to all attacks previously expended! [10:48] Akashic     Hey, that's really neat! [10:52] Megistus     I see. [10:53] Megistus     It's certainly an intriguing concept. [10:56] Megistus     But can you achieve it on     the budget listed here? [11:01] Megistus     We cannot approve ideas invented     out of last-minute desperation. SIGN    New Monster     Proposal [11:07] Megistus     Therefore, this monster is rejected! SIGN    New Monster SIGN    Proposal SIGN    Rejected [11:11] Megistus     I hereby call this meeting to a close! [11:17] Sadamaki     Yeah, I figured it wouldn't work out. [11:20] Kuroitsu     It's all your fault, Doctor! [11:22] Kuroitsu     I'll never forgive you for this. [11:24] Sadamaki     Guess you're pretty bummed, huh? [11:26] Kuroitsu     Well, I had to offer up that     slapped-together proposal. [11:30] Kuroitsu     It's not really fair to the monster, is it? [11:34] Sadamaki     You really love monsters,     don't you, Miss Kuroitsu? [11:38] Kuroitsu     Well, yeah... [11:41] Sadamaki     L... L-L-L-Lord Megistus! [11:44] Kuroitsu     Wh-What brings you here?! [11:47] Megistus     I'm concerned about what's happening     here in the Development Department. [11:51] Kuroitsu     I promise that proposal wasn't     intended to insult you. [11:55] Kuroitsu     It's all the doctor's fault anyway! [11:57] Sadamaki     Are you throwing me under     the bus, Miss Kuroitsu?! [11:59] Sadamaki     Justifiably, but still! [12:02] Megistus     So you really did throw it     together just to meet deadline. [12:09] Megistus     That's quite improper, Miss Kuroitsu! [12:10] Megistus     If you'd simply informed me     that you were struggling, [12:12] Megistus     I could have pushed back     the day of the meeting! [12:16] Megistus     It's also clear you've both been     overworked these past few days. [12:19] Megistus     I'll bet you aren't getting enough sleep! [12:21] Megistus     It's important to take breaks     to maintain efficiency! [12:24] Megistus     I receive reports from HR when you     don't use your paid leave days! [12:31] Megistus     Blader's destruction is of utmost importance, [12:33] Megistus     but your health is your finest asset! [12:35] Megistus     The only way to do your work properly     is to take time off as needed! [12:40] Kuroitsu     You mean... you're not going     to execute us for our failure? [12:45] Megistus     What's that?! [12:47] Megistus     Everybody makes mistakes now and again! [12:49] Megistus     But there's no replacement     for truly skilled labor! [12:55] Megistus     Miss Kuroitsu, you proposed a truly     intriguing idea at today's meeting. [13:01] Megistus     It's proof that you possess the     kind of out-of-the-box thinking [13:04] Megistus     that is indispensable     for monster development. [13:10] Megistus     What matters is to use this process     as a means for further growth. [13:14] Megistus     I await your next proposal,     Development Department. [13:19] Kuroitsu     Lord Megistus... [13:22] Megistus     See that you do not make     the same mistake again. [13:33] Kuroitsu     Whew... We made it through that one. [13:36] Sadamaki     Yeah... But what do we do about     Divine Swordsman Blader? [13:57] Kuroitsu     N-Nesuko! SIGN    Mascot Specialized Monster     Nesuko [14:01] Blader     Did they not come up with a monster in time?

It's unclear why the     Loch Ness Monster was chosen as its theme,     but the sword it carries takes into account     deficiencies in previous monsters' equipment.     In reality, it's just Miss Kuroitsu wearing a     monster suit.

[14:45] Kenji     She can't discuss it?!

[15:36] Nikaido     And once again, your plans reek of excess! [15:40] Nikaido     You don't need all these weapons! [15:42] Nikaido     They just add on weight,     which in turn adds bulk!

[19:02] Kuga     Each time she comes down     here with a design change, [19:04] Kuga     she begs us to put in just     that little bit extra. [19:07] Kuga     You'd think she was advocating     for a member of her own family. [19:13] Kuga     Besides, I think you turned out lovely.      I can't see a problem here. [19:19] Wolf-F     Oh, shut up! No one asked you! [19:22] Kuga     Sorry, sorry. [19:23] Kuga     That's sexual harassment nowadays, isn't it? [19:27] Wolf-F     Sheesh...

[14:11] Reo     Did that bird think I'm some     kind of balloon-loving baby? [14:16] Reo     Same to you, Yuto! [14:18] Reo     Do you think I'm still the kind     of little kid who likes balloons? [14:22] Yuto     Of course not, Reo. [14:24] Yuto     I think the mascot was just so tall,     you looked short by comparison. [14:28] Reo     Oh? [14:29] Reo     Still sounds like you're     saying I look like a kid. [14:32] Reo     I wish I could be tall like you, Yuto! [14:36] Yuto     Reo... You probably shouldn't     cling to me like that. [14:40] Yuto     Someone from class might see     us and get the wrong idea. [14:43] Reo     What do you want from me? [14:45] Reo     HQ told us to stick together. [14:48] Yuto     I know that, but... [14:50] Yuto     Do you really have to cling? [14:58] Compact     Monster mana detected!     Monster mana detected! [15:01] Reo     Yuto! [15:02] Yuto     Right!

[18:55] Cannon     But Miss Kuroitsu gives her monsters a     little more breathing room in their design, [18:59] Cannon     allowing for greater diversity. [19:02] Cannon     And so, my indecision— [19:05] Cannon     yes, indecision, followed     by the ability to decide— [19:08] Cannon     might be something that I owe to her! [19:10] Cannon     If that's true, then all I need to do [19:13] Cannon     is choose my path and follow it! [19:23] One     Matsu! You okay? [19:24] Three     Wake up! [19:27] Rose     All right!

[21:06] Zwart     You messed up this time,     but I still believe in your strength. [21:12] Reo     Yuto! [21:14] Reo     I'm sorry, Yuto. [21:16] Reo     If I'd only been more careful...

[03:51] Kuroitsu     I've got lots of ideas that are impossible      under our current technological restraints. [03:55] Doctor     Development capabilities, eh? [03:57] Doctor     That won't be easy. [03:59] Doctor     Maybe if we could get some     new research material... [04:03] Camula     Hardly working, are we? [04:13] Camula     These are business hours, are they not? [04:15] Camula     Yet you don't seem to be     doing much business.

[04:35] Kuro&Doc     L-Lady Camula! [04:37] Camula     It appears I will have to     perform a personal audit. [04:41] Kuroitsu     An executive audit?!

SIGN    Monster Development Department SIGN    Executive [05:27] Camula     Your work has been slowing down lately. [05:32] Camula     It's been a while since you've had     an equipment inspection, too. [05:35] Camula     We don't want malfunctions     occurring in crucial moments. [05:39] Camula     I've gone through the check sheet, [05:41] Camula     but it might be best to have     a specialist go over it again. [05:45] Doctor     Thank goodness. [05:46] Kuroitsu     It's a proper audit. [05:48] Camula     I'm curious. [05:50] Camula     Why have your monster production     costs been rising lately? [05:54] Kuroitsu     That was my idea. [05:56] Kuroitsu     I wanted our designs to have a     little more... breathing room? [05:59] Kuroitsu     More shades of gray, I guess you'd say. [06:01] Camula     Shades of gray? [06:03] Kuroitsu     Yes. [06:04] Kuroitsu     Previous monsters were made unable to     perform anything but their immediate function. [06:08] Kuroitsu     I thought giving them a little     more individuality and flexibility [06:11] Kuroitsu     would let them perform a variety of jobs. [06:13] Kuroitsu     That's a big part of why Wolfie boy didn't     have a breakdown despite his female body. [06:18] Wolf-F     I did have a complete breakdown! [06:21] Wolf-F     I'm totally getting this fixed, you got it?! [06:23] Kuroitsu     And why Cannon, who was created for long-range      combat, can act as a mascot at events. [06:23] Cannon     Here you go! Have fun! Can I help you? [06:24] kid     So fluffy! [06:26] kid     I can't reach the balloon! Move it down! [06:28] Camula     I see. Shades of gray... [06:31] Camula     Performing outside their original function... [06:34] Camula     That could be a legitimate philosophy. [06:40] Camula     I approve of your explanation of the costs, [06:42] Camula     but I can't overlook your     dismal track record! [06:45] Camula     The fact remains that you've     never once beaten Blader! [06:48] Doctor     You're absolutely right. [06:50] Doctor     There's nothing that can justify our failure. [06:54] Kuroitsu     Lady Camula... [06:56] Kuroitsu     I'd like to make a request to you to     improve our development capabilities. [06:59] Camula     Tell me. I may consider it. [07:02] Kuroitsu     Could I ask for some of your pluripotent     cells to use as research material? [07:07] Kuroitsu     I'm positive that new materials will lead to     new strides in monster development research! [07:12] Camula     Oh? You're asking me to     submit myself to testing? [07:18] Doctor     She really is fearless when     it comes to her objectives. [07:23] Camula     Request denied. [07:24] Camula     Agastia is not a school club. [07:27] Camula     It's a meritocratic evil organization. [07:29] Camula     If you need those cells, then take     them by whatever means necessary. [07:33] Kuroitsu     You're challenging me to     shed your blood, then? [07:38] Camula     Precisely. [07:41] Kuroitsu     Just what I was waiting for! [07:43] Kuroitsu     Wolfie boy! [07:44] Wolf-F     Right! [07:45] Wolf-F     Bete Claw! [07:52] Camula     Wolf Bete. [07:53] Camula     Modeled on the la Bête du Gévaudan     of France, were you not? [08:01] Camula     This is that wolfman monster who     was switched to a female form, yes? [08:07] Kuroitsu     Wolfie boy! [08:08] Camula     I admire your spirit, but you've      got a long way to go. [08:14] Camula     Perhaps it's time I reminded     you who's in charge here! [08:20] Wolf-F     No! [08:22] Kuroitsu     Please, no, Lady Camula! [08:24] Kuroitsu     Forgive him! [08:25] Camula     Are you talking back to me?! [08:31] Doctor     Lady Camula, this is going too far! [08:33] Camula     And one for you, too! [08:39] Camula     Have I made myself clear? [08:40] Camula     See that you have results by     the time of your next audit. [08:50] Kuroitsu     Guess we won't be solving the development     capability issue any time soon. [08:54] Doctor     What did you expect? [08:55] Doctor     It's not that easy to get     new research materials. [08:58] Doctor     We'll just have to stick     with the slow and steady. [09:00] Kuroitsu     Is it that time already? [09:02] Kuroitsu     I'm going off to do some research. [09:04] Doctor     Research? For what? [09:07] Kuroitsu     My latest idea for monster development. [09:10] Kuroitsu     It's the age... [09:12] Kuroitsu     of idols! [09:22] Bavalois A     Thank you, everyone! [09:22] Kuroitsu     Idols really are so charming. [09:26] Bavalois B     Thank you! [09:26] Kuroitsu     An idol monster that can     win over people's hearts [09:29] spectatorM     Thank you! [09:29] Kuroitsu     would let us use our existing technology     while exploring new avenues of potential. [09:29] spectactorF     Thank you! [09:31] Bavalois B     Getting to stand on this stage and see     all your smiling faces makes me so happy! [09:33] Kuroitsu     But I need a motif. [09:37] Kuroitsu     I won't be able to do a spec comparison     graph like I do with combat-oriented monsters, [09:37] Bavalois A     It's almost like a dream! [09:40] Bavalois B     I feel like we're standing on top of a     cloud, riding on waves of good feeling! [09:40] Kuroitsu     so I'll need a strong elevator     pitch to get them to— [09:44] Camula     I'm sorry... [09:45] Kuroitsu     Oh, no, totally my fault! [09:47] Kuroitsu     I was just so lost in thought. [09:47] Bavalois A     But it's not a dream, is it? [09:50] Bavalois B     No, it's reality. [09:51] Kuroitsu     The idols' performance     has moved her to tears? [09:53] Bavalois A     I used to think idols were special creatures [09:54] Kuroitsu     Their power to touch people's     hearts really is something. [09:57] Bavalois A     who lived in different worlds     than an ordinary girl like me. [10:02] Kuroitsu     L-Lady Camula? [10:02] Bavalois B     But now that we're here,     it's the same as it always was. [10:04] Kuroitsu     What are you doing here?! [10:08] Camula     You've got the wrong person! [10:12] Kuroitsu     You're not convincing anyone like that! [10:15] Kuroitsu     Really, you don't have to run away. [10:17] Kuroitsu     Lady Camula... you like idols? [10:19] Camula     Certainly not! [10:22] Bavalois A     Now for our next song! [10:25] Bavalois A     This song was all we had back in     our early days after our debut. [10:27] Bavalois A     It really means a lot to us! [10:29] Bavalois B     Back then, the idea of singing in front of     this many people really was like a dream. [10:35] Bavalois A     For the miracle that brought us here... [10:37] Bavalois B     ...and for those of you who     backed us all the way... [10:40] A&B     Please listen... to "Kimidrome"! [10:54] Camula     Sublime... [10:55] Kuroitsu     That good?! [11:00] Camula     I've been buying their merchandise     since their debut, [11:02] Camula     but it was my first time     at one of their concerts. [11:05] Camula     I refrained at first,     because it seemed inappropriate [11:07] Camula     for an evil organization's executive     to lose her mind at an idol concert. [11:11] Camula     But when you started talking about      making more versatile monsters, [11:15] Camula     I thought I'd come and see if it felt right. [11:18] Kuroitsu     Honestly, there's nothing wrong with that. [11:21] Kuroitsu     Even monsters need to live their lives. [11:28] Camula     Seeing them live for the first time, [11:30] Camula     and thinking about all they've been through, [11:32] Camula     I just... [11:48] Camula     Forgive me for losing     my composure, Kuroitsu. [11:53] Kuroitsu     Really, it's no problem at all. [11:56] Kuroitsu     I don't know a lot about idols,     so I hope you'll teach me all about them. [11:59] Camula     Really?! [12:01] Camula     No problem! I have all their albums,     including first and alternate editions! [12:05] Camula     I've got DVDs, Blu-rays, and even UHDs! [12:09] Kuroitsu     Like a young enthusiast first     meeting a kindred spirit... [12:12] Camula     I'd appreciate it if you didn't tell     the others in the organization. [12:16] Kuroitsu     Of course I won't. [12:17] Kuroitsu     Well, see you tomorrow. [12:32] Doctor     This is such a big help, Miss Kuroitsu!

[13:27] Elbucky     I didn't wanna do it, but the doctor made me     rehearse her intro with her three times, so— SIGN    Cosmic Feline Monster      Elbucky [13:32] Koharu     Be quiet, Bucky!

[14:06] Koharu     Did you really think you     could put one over on us? [14:10] Koharu     You may have toyed with his memory, [14:11] Koharu     but your deceit became obvious     with a moment's investigation! [14:13] Wolf-F     So, what? You're here to apologize? [14:17] Elbucky     Nah, mew. [14:18] Elbucky     We couldn't report to the higher-ups [14:20] Elbucky     that he picked a fight with a rival     organization and got torn to shreds, mew.

[16:17] Koharu     Take this seriously already! [16:19] Doctor     Did you just come here to     brag about your monster? [16:23] Koharu     I certainly did.

[18:23] Camula     It's Premium Friday. [18:27] Camula     Get going by the deadline, okay? [18:29] Kuroitsu     Yes, Lady Camula. [18:31] Koharu     P-P-P... [18:33] Koharu     Premium Friday? [18:35] Koharu     What system is that? You invoke its     name as if it were an ancient spell. [18:41] Narrator     Premium Friday is a campaign [18:43] Narrator     proposed by the political and economic     worlds to stimulate consumer spending. [18:48] Narrator     Workers may leave early on the last Friday     of each month to live a more enriching life. [18:55] Kuroitsu     Agastia still enforces it, as long     as it doesn't affect our work. [19:00] Kuroitsu     And we're flexible about our shifts     to make sure everyone gets time off. [19:03] Koharu     It can't be true. [19:05] Koharu     The value of one's work is based     on how much overtime one takes. [19:12] Kuroitsu     We're actually pretty respectable     about that kind of thing here, huh? [19:15] Doctor     Yeah. And if we do get stuck with     overtime, we're paid appropriately. [19:20] Doctor     Paid vacation requests     usually get granted, too. [19:22] Koharu     What? [19:24] Koharu     Black Lore forbids the use of paid vacation. [19:29] Koharu     When we work overtime, we're supposed to     punch our time card at the usual time. [19:32] Koharu     Then, so as to avoid outside criticism, [19:35] Koharu     we use a secret underground     tunnel when we do leave. [19:40] Koharu     Isn't that our duty as professionals? [19:43] Kuroitsu     Oh, right. [19:45] Kuroitsu     I've heard rumors that Black Lore     has huge employee turnover, [19:48] Kuroitsu     and quite a few of its employees     have died from overwork. [19:51] Doctor     One of those "black companies"     you hear about, eh? [20:01] Koharu     That... That can't be true! [20:04] Koharu     Black Lore is a large and     marvelous organization! [20:07] Koharu     Working for them makes me     one of life's winners! [20:11] Koharu     As long as I remain loyal     to my organization, [20:14] Koharu     victory will always be mine... [20:17] Koharu     It is trust in the organization [20:20] Koharu     that will pave the way to my future! [20:25] Kuroitsu     U-Um... are you okay? [20:28] Koharu     Y-Yes. [20:30] Koharu     We're leaving, Bucky! [20:33] Koharu     Premium Friday... [20:35] Koharu     Don't go thinking that's enough to beat me! [20:38] Elbucky     Mew!

[07:35] Doctor     Those charts only go up to last year. [07:38] Doctor     Cannon uses the renovated 30-Blue,     which isn't covered in those stats. [07:45] Cannon     I'm done for! [07:47] Cannon     I'm stuck in a group having a     conversation way over my head! [07:52] Cannon     But since they're talking about     my hardware, I can't just bow out!

[08:08] Hydra     What chocolate are you     made out of, Miss Melty? [08:09] Wolf-F     Manhood ain't all about looks! [08:10] Three     You gotta be rich to say crap like that. [08:10] Cannon     Senpai! Please get involved     so I can join your conversation! [08:11] Wolf-F     A man don't need money,     all he needs is dignity.

[08:13] One     He needs education and     body language, at least. [08:15] Melty     But we're drinking, so I might     be mostly whiskey bonbons! [08:16] Doctor     But the direction of EAPs is still— [08:19] Camula     Oh, shut up already! It's too damned loud! [08:24] Doctor     Crap! [08:25] Kuroitsu     We got so busy arguing... [08:34] Camula     I'm always... always so by-the-book... [08:39] Camula     I guess that's why everyone always avoids me. [08:42] Camula     But that's my job, so... what else can I do? [08:46] Doctor     She's a weepy drunk?! [08:48] Kuroitsu     I thought monsters couldn't get drunk! [08:50] Adamant     No, this always happens.

[09:11] Cannon     If this plate represents our organization, [09:13] Cannon     the chicken represents the     Development Department! [09:15] Cannon     And we monsters are the lemon slices! [09:19] Kuroitsu     Now Cannon's making weird metaphors     about objects in the room! [09:23] Doctor     And I can't figure out what     point he's trying to make! [09:26] Melty     Yeah, I hear that. [09:28] Melty     You're so right. [09:30] Melty     I totally feel you. [09:31] Kuroitsu     And Melty's just nodding along to be polite!

[14:06] Wolf-F     This is great! [14:07] Kuroitsu     Right? [14:09] Kuroitsu     Listen to me, Wolfie boy. [14:10] kid     Mama, I want noodles, too! [14:11] Kuroitsu     You need to always have a corner of     your mind cooking up monster ideas, [14:13] mom     Come on! [14:15] Kuroitsu     or they won't come out when you need them. [14:17] Kuroitsu     So when I'm sitting out in a     big public space like this, [14:21] Kuroitsu     watching the ordinary people     go about their lives... [14:24] Kuroitsu     I start getting ideas, like,     "How could I genetically alter him?" [14:26] Kuroitsu     or, "What kind of creature     could I combine her with?" [14:31] Wolf-F     She sounds kinda psychopathic right now. [14:35] Kuroitsu     Of course, human modification     is forbidden at Agastia, [14:39] Kuroitsu     so those ideas are just a     springboard for other things. [14:42] Wolf-F     Should you really be thinking so much about     work on your days off, Miss Kuroitsu? [14:46] Kuroitsu     Shouldn't I? [14:48] Wolf-F     I play games and sleep and     stuff on my days off. [14:52] Wolf-F     And sometimes I do karaoke. [14:55] Kuroitsu     I guess I have been kind     of a workaholic lately. [15:00] Kuroitsu     But I do want to be an executive, after all. [15:03] Kuroitsu     I really need to push myself     to earn that big score. [15:07] Wolf-F     You're serious about being an executive?! [15:10] Kuroitsu     Of course I am. [15:11] Kuroitsu     That's why I put in face time     at the factories. [15:14] Kuroitsu     I'm the kind of person who needs a     concrete goal to give a job my all. [15:17] Kuroitsu     I have to keep upping my game     if I want to reach my goal. [15:21] Kuroitsu     I've been at the Development Department     for a while because it's understaffed, [15:24] Kuroitsu     but I might end up in another     department someday.

[15:40] Wolf-F     I really didn't know anything     about Miss Kuroitsu. [15:47] Wolf-F     I can't let her keep dismissing     me as a little sister.

[17:28] Wolf-F     How'd you get so damn tough?! [17:30] Kuroitsu     Well, I can't afford to be weaker     than the executive monsters. [17:35] Kuroitsu     Come on, let's get going! [17:36] Kuroitsu     I was really holding back there,     so they'll be waking up soon! [17:40] Kuroitsu     Earlier, I said you were like a little     sister... but I think I was wrong.

[05:51] zwart     It's an ordinary interview! [05:54] rose     My name is Rin Sato. [05:55] rose     My father ran out on us for various reasons. [05:58] rose     The resulting anxiety combined with     overwork sent my mother to the hospital, [06:03] rose     and I'm looking for a job     to pay her medical bills. [06:06] zwart     How can she come up with such a     serious backstory on the spot? [06:06] rose     I saw your ad for combatants and applied. [06:10] zwart     I've got to think of something, too. [06:12] meg     I see. [06:13] meg     I'm sorry if relating that was painful for you. [06:17] meg     Now, the next one. Please begin. [06:20] zwart     Right... [06:21] zwart     My name is, um... Yu... Yusuke Tanaka! [06:27] meg     Yusuke? [06:30] rose     Yuto! [06:32] zwart     I-It sounds like a man's name, right? [06:35] zwart     People tell me that all the time! [06:38] meg     I suppose everyone has     their own circumstances. [06:41] zwart     He must think I'm a complicated person now. [06:44] meg     Now, my next question. [06:46] meg     What abilities and experiences     would you bring to our company? [06:51] meg     Sato first. [06:53] rose     My previous job put me in     frequent contact with monsters, [06:56] rose     so I know just how to deal with them! [06:59] zwart     Yeah... by destroying them, right? [07:01] meg     I see. [07:02] meg     Work experience with monsters, at your age? [07:05] meg     Then you know what's generally     expected of our combatants? [07:10] rose     I know that "combatants"     is primarily a legacy term. [07:15] rose     Your classified ad mentioned nothing     about combat ability, which suggests that [07:19] rose     the job mainly involves supporting the     monster and doing odd jobs at the work site. [07:22] rose     I might suggest that workshopping     the obsolete term [07:26] rose     would help you to find more     suitable personnel in the future. [07:30] meg     Your feedback is appreciated. [07:32] meg     Now, what do you feel is our     company's goal? Tanaka. [07:37] zwart     World domination through monsters, right? [07:41] meg     Let's assume that is true. [07:42] meg     What do you think our specific plans are? [07:45] meg     Well, Sato? [07:46] rose     You don't engage in any overtly evil     activities other than fighting heroes. [07:52] rose     I suspect this is because you're still     at the stage of running field tests [07:56] rose     to improve your monsters' performance. [07:58] rose     In other words, your current priority is the     development and expansion of your monsters. [08:04] rose     But certain elements of that     seem to be proceeding sluggishly [08:07] rose     in light of a world domination goal. [08:09] rose     Hire me, and I'll be able to offer     you a more effective plan. [08:14] zwart     Reo? [08:15] zwart     This is a performance, right? [08:18] zwart     You're not really going to turn against     the forces of justice, right? [08:21] meg     I see. A keen observation. [08:24] meg     It's a shame I can't hire either of you. [08:28] rose     Is it because of our age? [08:30] rose     I personally believe that age is     no barrier to a hatred of justice. [08:34] meg     All the more reason I cannot hire     anyone below the age of majority. [08:38] meg     You see, an evil organization fights heroes,     and some of those may be children. [08:44] meg     Needless to say, this would be unethical. [08:47] meg     It follows, too, that any organization that     would use children for an infiltration mission [08:51] meg     is also unethical. [08:53] zwart     He knows who we are! [08:54] rose     Let's do it, Zwart! [08:56] rose     Strike Rose! [09:02] meg     Now, my next question. [09:05] meg     Our business is an unforgiving     one these days.

[07:16] Wolf-F     I was second-best in my     class at monster school! [07:20] Akashic     Did that really happen? [07:22] Kuroitsu     In his mind, it did.

[07:47] Wolf-F     You obviously had mechanical help! [07:50] Cannon     Well, the mechanical bits     are a part of me, too! [07:53] Kuroitsu     Cannon's body requires     a lot of energy to run, [07:56] Kuroitsu     but he can also channel that energy     into a lot of different mechanisms.

[09:34] Camula     Yeah, I guess it's my own fault     for bringing you here. [09:45] Kuroitsu     In combat above water, Cannon's long-range     weapons give him an advantage. [09:49] Hydra     Mr. Wolf might be stronger in the     water where guns don't work as well. [09:54] Doctor     Why are they suddenly at each     other's throats like this? [09:58] Akashic     You're so dense, Doctor. [10:01] Akashic     It's clearly because they both have     someone they want to impress. [10:06] Doctor     You think that's it?

[02:07] Doctor     A blade for a blade. [02:09] Doctor     We did design her specifically     to fight Blader. [02:13] Kuroitsu     Well... [02:15] Kuroitsu     Personally, I was against the concept of     designing a monster purely to fight Blader. [02:21] Kuroitsu     It's partly what happened with Banny boy... [02:23] Kuroitsu     But a monster like that wouldn't have     much to do after they defeated Blader. [02:29] Kuroitsu     The demands of Mummy's internal mechanisms [02:31] Kuroitsu     meant we couldn't even give her     proper vocal capabilities. [02:34] Kuroitsu     I felt a little bad for her. [02:36] Kuroitsu     It's true that she's not cut out for many of     the side tasks Agastia assigns their monsters. [02:41] Kuroitsu     But for now, it's probably best to test out     a lot of different avenues of development. [02:47] Kuroitsu     There you are, Mummy. Perfect timing.

[04:41] Kuroitsu     I-I sorta thought you'd say that. [04:43] Camula     I'm pleased to see you recognize     the excellence of Bavalois, [04:46] Camula     but their world is unforgiving     to those who enter it on a whim!

[07:09] Kuroitsu     Do you think Mummy will     ever be able to sing? [07:13] Doctor     I doubt it. [07:14] Doctor     She doesn't even have proper vocal cords. [07:17] Doctor     It's like asking if you     could teach a tank to sing. [07:21] Doctor     She just wasn't built for     anything besides combat. [07:25] Kuroitsu     I'm sure you're right. [07:29] Kuroitsu     But... [07:31] Doctor     When a human loses a part of their brain, [07:34] Doctor     other parts tend to adapt to compensate. [07:37] Doctor     It's a kind of system redundancy. [07:40] Doctor     It's possible that the same     might hold true for monsters. [07:45] Kuroitsu     Yeah... maybe. [07:55] Wolf-F     You okay?

[08:30] Wolf-F     But hey, maybe just dancing to the music     will make a good show on its own. [08:35] Wolf-F     Okay, Mummy!

SIGN    Gentle Gauze SIGN    Bandages SIGN    Clear Tape [10:28] Wolf-F     Why'd you make Mummy to be like that? [10:31] Wolf-F     There's way too much distance between     who she is and what she can do.

[10:41] Kuroitsu     Of course, I didn't think that kind of     thing would happen with monsters. [10:46] Kuroitsu     But she'll be fine if she plays     to her strengths, like you do.

[13:38] Kuroitsu     What happened with you was     certainly unexpected, [13:41] Kuroitsu     but the Development Department     would love to gather data [13:45] Kuroitsu     along your quest to be an idol.

[15:12] Mummy     Bibbrother! [15:15] Wolf-F     Heck yeah! I'm your big brother! [15:18] Wolf-F     This is awesome! [15:25] Doctor     Where did these changes in     Mummy's throat come from? [15:30] Doctor     It's too strange to be a     standard biological reaction. [15:34] Doctor     Is she really forming a voice box? [15:38] Kuroitsu     Do you think... [15:40] Doctor     What is it, Miss Kuroitsu? [15:43] Kuroitsu     I think I might know what's going on here. [15:50] Kuroitsu     Lady Camula, did you implant her     with your pluripotent cells? [15:57] Camula     I was opposed to the idea of     monsters aspiring to perform. [16:01] Camula     Not only would it be stealing     work that only humans can do, [16:06] Camula     but a monster designed for that purpose     would simply become a product showcase. [16:12] Camula     But she was not designed to be an idol. [16:17] Camula     In a way, she faces a far more     difficult path than a human would. [16:23] Camula     I simply decided that, if she wishes     to be an idol despite that difficulty, [16:28] Camula     I might as well help her along the way. [16:34] Camula     Nowadays, it's possible to gain a following     on streaming sites and social media. [16:39] Camula     There's no need to follow the idol's path. [16:42] Camula     If there's one thing that every idol needs, [16:46] Camula     it's the ability to invigorate those     around her—a certain sparkle. [16:52] Camula     I believe she may just have that power. [16:58] Kuroitsu     Lady Camula... [17:00] Camula     But there's a far greater point at issue! [17:04] Camula     If she does make it as an idol, [17:07] Camula     it'll mean my cells will be part of an idol! [17:11] Camula     But it's really not like that!     That's not why I did it! [17:14] Camula     Why did I do something so presumptuous?! [17:21] Camula     We've had a lot of trouble getting your cells [17:23] Camula     to be compatible with any     of the monsters we've made. [17:26] Camula     Why are they working in Mummy? [17:30] Camula     Logically speaking, [17:31] Camula     I'd say it's the fact that she's built tough, [17:33] Camula     and that her body already     contains multipurpose cells. [17:38] Camula     But if she really is an idol, is it so     unbelievable that she'd make a miracle happen? SIGN    Monster Idol     Mummy [18:02] Kuroitsu     Do you think Mummy's voice will be ready? [18:05] Wolf-F     She's been getting better     and better at speaking, [18:08] Wolf-F     but she's been doing the song     practice all by herself... [18:11] Wolf-F     She really worked hard at the dancing. [18:14] Wolf-F     I think the concert'll be pretty darn good     with her just dancing to the music, but... [18:41] Mummy     There's a hill I always longed to climb! [18:47] Mummy     Then one day, step by step,     I started getting closer! [18:52] Mummy     But how much work do I need to put in [18:55] Mummy     before my determination finds its reward? [18:58] Mummy     I'm running through the steps     I just learned! Ready, go! [19:03] Mummy     People can laugh at me and     say that I'm crazy... [19:09] Mummy     But I just want my voice     to reach your heart! [19:14] Mummy     Hop, step, miracle! Yeah, yeah! [19:17] Mummy     Miracles don't happen every day! [19:20] Mummy     But I'll make one for myself! I believe! [19:25] Mummy     With the power you've given me... [19:30] Mummy     I will sing a song! [19:32] Mummy     And I'll do it for you! So watch me, okay? [19:35] Mummy     Smiling for you! [19:55] Audience     That was awesome! [20:03] Mummy     Hey, everyone! [20:05] Mummy     Thanks so much for being here! [20:09] Audience     Thank you! Thank you! [20:11] Audience     Mummy!

[02:50] Skylla     Personally, I think a true executive     mindset demands being a team player. [02:55] Fenrir     Why do you always have to feud like this?

[08:22] Kuroitsu     What, they're not good? [08:24] Fleurety     Well, they started making them bigger     and bigger to make them taste better.

[09:43] Kuroitsu     It is a tricky suggestion. [09:48] Kuroitsu     The real problem is that Lord Jaguar     would never actually do as he was told. [09:54] Jaguar     What, you got a particular problem with me? [09:57] Kuroitsu     Oh, of course not! [10:00] Kuroitsu     It's a particular problem with     you and Lord Uncle both. [10:02] Jaguar     Why are you sticking me     in the creep category?! [10:07] Jaguar     You'll pay for that! [10:10] Fenrir     I won't allow this.

[01:23] Kuroitsu     I'm sure the principle is correct... [01:26] Wolf-F     Yeah, we were all pretty excited     when we first heard the idea. [01:30] Doctor     I think that this monster concept,     based on all the data we've collected so far, [01:34] Doctor     is a very interesting one. [01:36] Doctor     But it's going to take a pretty long     time to finish it at our lab's scale. [01:40] Wolf-F     Huh? How many times are you     gonna blow me up here?

[02:10] Zet     If you were to join our     Secret Society: Zet Arc group, [02:15] Zet     we could easily enhance Agastia's     domination potential.

[02:50] Megistus     It is common enough for companies      to think that their capital [02:54] Megistus     should be synonymous with their influence. [02:56] Megistus     But what is your decision, Great Leader? [03:00] Megistus     They're requiring no restructuring     of our executive level or below. [03:03] Megistus     We'll receive more funding, and our     compensation will greatly improve. [03:11] Narrator     World domination is about safety in size!

[03:19] Camula     It appears Zet Arc is interested in     direct expansion into the Asia region. [03:20] Narrator     Zet Arc will repaint the whole world! [03:24] Doctor     But doesn't M&A among evil secret     societies seem a little... [03:27] Wolf-F     M&A? [03:29] Kuroitsu     Mergers and acquisitions. [03:32] Kuroitsu     It means buying up companies. [03:34] Doctor     I expect they must want to use us as     a foothold for expansion into Asia. [03:39] Doctor     That lab's budget is clearly     orders of magnitude above ours! [03:43] Wolf-F     With something like that, we could do     all the monster development we wanted! [03:47] Kuroitsu     But... we can't actually join them, can we?
