SIGN    Secret Society: Agastia Monster Development Department     Doctor: Hajime Sadamaki SIGN    Secret Society: Agastia Monster Development Department     Assistant: Touka Kuroitsu [01:21] Kuroitsu     This is so weird. [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? [01:45] Kuroitsu     If only we had a little more funding... [01:49] Camula     You might be getting more soon. SIGN    Pluripotent Cellular Executive     Immortal Camula [01:51] Kuroitsu     Lady Camula? [01:53] Camula     However... things might also     get a little more complicated. [01:58] Kuroitsu     What do you mean by that? [01:59] Camula     I've only heard the rumors, myself, but... [02:04] Kuroitsu     What?! Agastia's getting bought     out by a foreign investor?! [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. [02:19] Megistus     We will need to consider our     response to your offer. SIGN    Absolute Zero Chief of Staff     Megistus [02:22] Zet     Surely there's no reason to hesitate. [02:24] Zet     It's a fine deal, isn't it? [02:27] Megistus     We will consider it, [02:29] Megistus     and contact you again when we're ready. [02:31] Zet     Very well... [02:33] Zet     I see. [02:34] Zet     But do remember that you     have little time to waste. [02:38] Zet     Decisions should be made ASAP. [02:40] Zet     That is the global standard. SIGN    Secret Society: Agastia Great Leader     Akashic [02:45] Akashic     Ugh! What a jerk! [02:48] Akashic     Thinking he can boss us around... [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! [03:12] Doctor     The foreign investor,     Secret Society: Zet Arc... [03:14] Narrator     All of our affiliate companies     see rapid growth! [03:16] Doctor     Those worldwide players really have it good. [03:17] Narrator     Zet Arc will repaint the whole world! [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? [03:54] Camula     But according to Uncle's investigations, [03:56] Camula     they're not afraid of strong-arming     to get their way.

[04:48] Cannon     Is it a type of chocolate? [04:52] Three     What kind of question is that?! [04:52] Two     You really try my patience... [04:52] One     Now I want to eat some chocolate.

[05:47] Zet     We're attacking your executives' bases. [05:50] Zet     We are realists, you see. [05:53] Zet     We wish to drive seizure of your     assets in a thoroughly agile manner. [05:57] Megistus     Oh? I don't recall giving you our answer yet. [06:02] Zet     If I might rephrase more simply, [06:04] Zet     we have rescinded, from you,     the element of choice. [06:07] Zet     It's time to accept what's happening. [06:10] Megistus     Would this be a hostile takeover, then? [06:13] Akashic     In other words, an invasion. [06:16] Zet     You exaggerate, surely. [06:18] Zet     I simply thought I'd show     a minor organization [06:20] Zet     that has failed to control even     this small area after so long [06:23] Zet     what true power looks like.

[07:04] Kuroitsu     They must take the monsters     from the companies they buy, [07:06] Kuroitsu     alter them to their company standard, [07:07] Kuroitsu     and force them to work against their will. [07:09] Wolf-F     Ignoring the will of the monsters, huh? [07:11] Wolf-F     That's nuts! [07:14] Kuroitsu     As an evil organization ourselves, [07:16] Kuroitsu     we're in no position to object to the practice. [07:18] Kuroitsu     But I still don't like their methods!

[10:01] Zet     It appears I miscalculated. [10:03] Zet     Goodness me. [10:10] Zet     To take the field myself     is terribly inefficient. [10:13] Zet     I'll have to reflect on this later.
