[00:02] ---
    The number of people who believe in the
    existence of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts

[00:06] ---
    is increasing,
    especially among young people.

[00:12] ---
    My power is your power.
[00:15] ---
    Use it to your heart's content.
[00:20] ---
    All right.
[00:21] ---
    Good job!
[00:22] ---
    Well, should we head deeper in?
[00:25] ---
    Wonderful!
[00:26] ---
    No matter how often I see it,
    this bizarre scenery arouses my creative urge!
[00:35] ---
    It's because the Phantoms have become
    more famous after Madarame's case.
[00:41] ---
    Hey, what the hell do we do with this?
[00:44] ---
    It's the spoils of war.
    They may be worth more than you think.
[00:50] ---
    Well, shall we wash them?
[00:53] ---
    Over there.
[02:43] ---
    That's hot!
    Gimme a break, old man!
[02:47] ---
    Don't touch me.
[02:50] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting!
[02:51] ---
    I kept watch for you, Lady Ann!
[02:54] ---
    I appreciate it.
[02:56] ---
    What's up with you guys?
[02:58] ---
    Nothing.
[03:00] ---
    More importantly, let's hurry up and find
    our next target after Madarame.
[03:06] ---
    "Do you believe in the
    Phantom Thieves of Hearts?"
[03:10] ---
    Oh, they're doing a survey now.
[03:12] ---
    "If you think they exist, prove it."
[03:15] ---
    "I mean, really, Phantom Thieves of Hearts?"
[03:17] ---
    Sounds like our approval rating is still low.
[03:20] ---
    Let's do somethin' that'll
    knock their socks off!
[03:23] ---
    In order to gain fame?
[03:25] ---
    There are certainly a great number
    of sleazy adults in the world.
[03:30] ---
    So we have plenty of targets.
[03:32] ---
    Patience is a virtue, rookies.
[03:34] ---
    Madarame was a much bigger catch
    than Kamoshida was.
[03:38] ---
    I'm sure the police and media
    will be searching for us in earnest now.
[03:42] ---
    We need to proceed more cautiously
    than ever before.
[03:46] ---
    But...
[03:47] ---
    Your midterm exams
    went terribly, didn't they?
[03:50] ---
    If people start getting suspicious that you're
    ditching studying to go phantom thieving,
[03:54] ---
    we're in hot water.
[03:59] ---
    Maybe that shop will pay us a lot for these.
[04:03] ---
    No, no!
[04:04] ---
    I mean as funds for the Phantom Thieves!
[04:07] ---
    I'm broke, dude. Seriously.
[04:12] ---
    That jerk Morgana.
[04:14] ---
    When I was all hyped up... Studying?
[04:17] ---
    Boring.
[04:19] ---
    Wish there was something...
    interesting goin' on?
[04:30] ---
    A-Are you here to check out?
[04:32] ---
    Yes.
[04:33] ---
    There's that new kid.
[04:35] ---
    Is he actually a bookworm?
[04:37] ---
    The identities of the Phantom Thieves?
[04:40] ---
    None of us in the Newspaper Club
    have found any clues.
[04:52] ---
    I swear... I swear I won't
    let anyone else have him.
[04:55] ---
    Ikesugi-kun is mine and mine alone.
[04:59] ---
    Okay, question.
[05:00] ---
    Where's Morgana? He with you?
[05:00] ---
    What is another famous literary series
    that Sherlock Holmes appeared in?
[05:03] ---
    He's off alone right now.
[05:04] ---
    Perfect! There's somethin'
    I gotta tell you later.
[05:04] ---
    It's Arsene Lupin, Gentleman Thief,
    and the author is...
[05:07] ---
    Don't tell Ann either.
[05:08] ---
    I suppose there's no need to ask.
    The answer is Leblanc.
[05:16] ---
    What's this?
[05:17] ---
    It was in my mailbox!
[05:19] ---
    "Housekeeping service."
[05:21] ---
    It says that a cute maid
    will do anything for you!
[05:24] ---
    A maid, dude! A maid!
    You're a guy, so you get it, right? Right?
[05:29] ---
    You don't mean... to help at Leblanc?
[05:31] ---
    Idiot! No!
[05:34] ---
    A guy in our complex just moved out,
    so there's a vacant room.
[05:39] ---
    There's a key behind the mailbox,
    so we can get in anytime.
[05:42] ---
    W-Wait, but...
[05:43] ---
    Sure, we'll study, but don't we
    gotta blow off steam, too?
[05:48] ---
    I couldn't help overhearing!
[05:50] ---
    Can I get in on this, too?
[05:53] ---
    Oh-ho! You mean you're into
    this kinda stuff, Mishima?
[05:55] ---
    You're honest, unlike this guy.
[05:57] ---
    Not that!
    Research! It's for research!
[06:00] ---
    What does it mean
    that they'll do "anything"?
[06:03] ---
    And do the maids look exactly
    as they're advertised?
[06:07] ---
    It calls itself a maid service,
    but it's suspicious!
[06:10] ---
    We'll get to the bottom of what it actually is!
[06:13] ---
    To punish bad guys!
[06:15] ---
    To punish bad guys?
[06:18] ---
    In that case...
[06:21] ---
    In that case, maybe we should do it!
[06:24] ---
    Ren-ren!
[06:26] ---
    Then it's settled.
[06:28] ---
    So what's the code name of this operation?
[06:30] ---
    Um...
[06:31] ---
    I've got it!
[06:32] ---
    "Operation Maidwatch."
[06:34] ---
    Or "Maid Looking Party," if you will!
[06:36] ---
    Whoa! That's cool!
[06:37] ---
    TAKEMI MEDICAL CLINIC
[06:38] ---
    Something wrong? You seem fidgety.
[06:41] ---
    Got something going on today?
[06:43] ---
    No, not especially.
[06:47] ---
    You look a bit more mature
    in those clothes.
[06:50] ---
    Really?
[06:52] ---
    You're a strange boy.
[06:53] ---
    Well, if you're an adult now,
    I can up the dosage of my meds, right?
[06:58] ---
    Prepare yourself for the next clinical trial.
[07:05] ---
    You're early.
[07:07] ---
    What are you reading?
[07:08] ---
    Oh, just a little something to give me ideas
    for running the Phan-Site.
[07:12] ---
    Phan-Site?
[07:13] ---
    Oh, come on. The Phantom Thieves
    Aficionado Website, remember?
[07:17] ---
    Ever since Madarame's press conference,
    it's gotten an enormous number of hits!
[07:21] ---
    Huh...
[07:22] ---
    I'm gonna take the Phan-Site
    to the big leagues!
[07:25] ---
    This is my life's work!
    No, my mission!
[07:28] ---
    Yo, sorry. Were you guys waitin' long?
[07:31] ---
    Then let's go. To the Maid Looking...
[07:33] ---
    ...Party!
[07:34] ---
    Party...
[07:37] ---
    Thank you for calling!
    This is Victoria's Housekeeping!

[07:41] ---
    Do you have a request?
[07:43] ---
    R-Request? What's he mean by request?
[07:47] ---
    R-Request...
[07:51] ---
    Not especially.
[07:53] ---
    Very good!
    Then may I ask for your address?

[08:00] ---
    Shit! She's really here!
[08:03] ---
    By the way, are high schoolers
    even allowed to use this service?
[08:06] ---
    Huh?
[08:07] ---
    What do you mean, "Huh"?
    You should've researched it!
[08:09] ---
    H-How would I know?
[08:12] ---
    Good evening!
    I'm from the housekeeping service.
[08:15] ---
    Crap! I'm so nervous, my stomach hurts!
[08:18] ---
    M-Me too!
[08:20] ---
    Oh, the door's unlocked...
    Um, may I come in?
[08:24] ---
    I-I can't do this!
[08:26] ---
    Sorry, you handle the rest.
[08:28] ---
    And don't let her find out
    you're a high schooler!
[08:29] ---
    Hey!
[08:31] ---
    I got your back! From the veranda!
[08:33] ---
    M-Me too!
[08:35] ---
    I'm coming in.
[08:38] ---
    Oh, there you are!
[08:41] ---
    Welcome home, Master.
[08:45] ---
    That voice...
[08:46] ---
    I'm Becky from Victoria
    and I'll be serving you today.
[08:52] ---
    It sounds like her...
    Just a coincidence?
[08:56] ---
    I'm going to fill your tired heart
    full of lovely energy. Meow!
[09:06] ---
    N-Nice to meow-t you...
[09:09] ---
    What would you like me to do today?
[09:11] ---
    The basics are cooking...
[09:13] ---
    Laundry...
[09:14] ---
    Cleaning...
[09:16] ---
    However...
[09:18] ---
    If Master wishes it,
[09:21] ---
    there are other "services" we provide.
[09:26] ---
    Huh? What healthy skin you have, Master.
[09:29] ---
    Maybe you're really young?
[09:32] ---
    Are you perhaps... in high school?
[09:37] ---
    I...
[09:38] ---
    I'm a dad.
[09:42] ---
    Um...
[09:43] ---
    I'll wait to provide those other "services"
    until you've matured a bit, Master.
[09:49] ---
    So I'll be going now!
[09:52] ---
    Wh-What?! What the hell?!
[09:55] ---
    Is someone there?
[09:56] ---
    Moron!
[09:58] ---
    Shit! Run, Mishima!
[09:59] ---
    R-Right!
[10:01] ---
    "Mishima?" And that voice...
[10:04] ---
    Sakamoto-kun?!
[10:05] ---
    Then you really are...
[10:09] ---
    Ms. Kawakami, right?
[10:12] ---
    You're...
[10:15] ---
    Um...
[10:20] ---
    Yes, that's right. I'm Kawakami.
    Your homeroom teacher.
[10:26] ---
    Who'd you hear this from?
[10:28] ---
    It was Ms. Chouno,
    the English teacher, wasn't it?
[10:30] ---
    She's been snooping around lately!
[10:33] ---
    Hey, it won't be any good for you if people
    find out that you called a maid service.
[10:38] ---
    So let's both forget this happened.
[10:41] ---
    O-Okay.
[10:42] ---
    I'll treat this as if you had canceled,
    so you won't owe anything.
[10:45] ---
    Okay, see ya.
[10:49] ---
    What a shocker.
[10:50] ---
    Your homeroom teacher was
    moonlighting with a job like that?
[10:53] ---
    Are you listening?
[10:54] ---
    I couldn't believe my eyes either.
[10:54] ---
    In this sample sentence,
    it's important to put "have",
[10:56] ---
    She must have her reasons.
[10:57] ---
    plus a past participle following "should."
[10:58] ---
    Why don't you ask her about it?
[11:00] ---
    "I should have listened to you sooner."
    More quickly...
[11:01] ---
    Ms. Chouno, the English teacher.
    What's between her and Ms. Kawakami?
[11:06] ---
    No! We're not done talking!
[11:09] ---
    Please, I just...
[11:10] ---
    There's been a series of scandals
    on this campus.
[11:13] ---
    All us teachers are
    being called into question!
[11:16] ---
    And yet you leave work earlier than anyone,
    and you barely make it to faculty meetings!
[11:22] ---
    Th-That's because–
[11:23] ---
    Ms. Kawakami, may I have a moment?
[11:26] ---
    You're that transfer student.
[11:29] ---
    Sorry to bother.
    I just had another question.
[11:34] ---
    A-Another question?
[11:35] ---
    Another?
[11:36] ---
    Th-That's right!
[11:38] ---
    Amamiya-kun's questions are complicated,
    so I take time at night to help him.
[11:43] ---
    Lessons outside of school hours...
[11:45] ---
    What passion!
[11:47] ---
    You're the ideal teacher, Ms. Kawakami!
[11:50] ---
    Not at all...
[11:51] ---
    I was wrong to be suspicious of you.
[11:54] ---
    Keep up the hard work, you two.
    See you!
[11:57] ---
    Do you think I owe you one now?
[11:59] ---
    It just looked like you were in a bind.
[12:04] ---
    Later.
[12:08] ---
    Sorry about yesterday.
    Guess I can't do bad stuff.
[12:12] ---
    So I'm turnin' over a new leaf,
    and you should join me!
[12:14] ---
    Huh?
[12:19] ---
    T-Times like this when not much is going on,
    we gotta train to prep for the next mission.
[12:25] ---
    What about studying?
[12:26] ---
    This is my secret training spot.
[12:30] ---
    Ever since my track days,
    I've often trained alone.
[12:33] ---
    The hell you up to, Sakamoto?
[12:36] ---
    Nakaoka, Takeishi...
[12:39] ---
    I heard what you said.
    You're still not done with track?
[12:43] ---
    No! I was just...
[12:47] ---
    Get lost.
[12:49] ---
    Nobody invited you to join
    the new track team!
[12:53] ---
    You're formin' a new track team?
[12:56] ---
    You're that transfer student, right?
[12:59] ---
    Nakaoka, forget these guys.
[13:01] ---
    Let's go.
[13:06] ---
    Does it bother you?
[13:08] ---
    It's got nothin' to do with me anymore.
[13:10] ---
    Don't you worry about me.
[13:14] ---
    He used to be different,
    before the track team disbanded.

[13:28] ---
    You're a challenger, huh?
[13:34] ---
    Hello! This is Victoria's Housekeeping!
[13:37] ---
    Um, I have a request.
[13:39] ---
    Kid, you've got a lot of nerve.
[13:42] ---
    Though I do appreciate what you did
    regarding Ms. Chouno.
[13:45] ---
    So what's this about?
[13:47] ---
    This room does look like
    it needs some cleaning.
[13:51] ---
    No. Rather, I want to ask you something.
[13:56] ---
    I see. The track team, huh?
[13:59] ---
    Ryuji said he slugged Kamoshida
    because he couldn't take any more.
[14:05] ---
    He feels guilty for the burden
    put on his mother.
[14:10] ---
    I figured Kamoshida provoked Ryuji
    by mentioning his mother.
[14:14] ---
    I wouldn't know about that.
[14:17] ---
    But...
[14:18] ---
    "You're probably not being raised right
    with only one parent."
[14:21] ---
    Anyone, not just Sakamoto-kun,
    would get mad hearing something like that.
[14:26] ---
    I'm just generalizing.
[14:29] ---
    Ryuji took a swing at Kamoshida
    not because of his knee injury,
[14:33] ---
    but because his mother was insulted.
[14:36] ---
    He endured all of Kamoshida's hazing
    for the sake of his teammates.
[14:41] ---
    I couldn't say. Except if you're right,
[14:46] ---
    that would mean Sakamoto loses his temper,
[14:49] ---
    gets violent and holds back
    for the sake of other people, not for himself.
[14:53] ---
    I never would've thought about it,
    considering that attitude of his.
[14:59] ---
    But I understand now, thanks to you.
[15:03] ---
    Th-That being said, this isn't free today.
[15:08] ---
    Now don't call the service again.
[15:11] ---
    I heard the track and field club is reforming.
[15:14] ---
    You're well-informed.
[15:16] ---
    Yeah. The new faculty advisor
    is Mr. Yamauchi.
[15:21] ---
    He was the closest teacher to Kamoshida.
[15:27] ---
    Oh, is this it?
[15:28] ---
    Yamauchi doesn't know anything about track.
    Something's going on.
[15:28] ---
    Yeah. I recommend the roe and cheese.
[15:32] ---
    I'm grateful you looked into it...
[15:35] ---
    But why?
[15:37] ---
    I couldn't just leave it.
[15:38] ---
    Having you moping around
    uncharacteristically bothers me.
[15:43] ---
    You...
[15:44] ---
    But he knows my face,
    so I can't go in.
[15:48] ---
    Leave it to me.
[15:50] ---
    We can decide our next move after
    I find out Yamauchi's ulterior motive.
[15:53] ---
    It bugs you, right?
[15:58] ---
    Welcome!
[16:01] ---
    We'll just have to abandon
    the volleyball team.
[16:04] ---
    But there has to be a way
    to bring Shujin back into the limelight.
[16:08] ---
    And so...
[16:10] ---
    You mean with the track team, right?
[16:12] ---
    Right!
[16:13] ---
    The students who went through
    so much hardship under Kamoshida
[16:15] ---
    will rise again with a caring new advisor!
[16:18] ---
    The public will love this comeback story!
[16:21] ---
    You're a genius, Mr. Yamauchi!
[16:23] ---
    What about all the troublemakers
    on the team?
[16:27] ---
    Especially Nakaoka.
[16:29] ---
    Nakaoka...
[16:31] ---
    Oh, you mean the one who asked them
    to bring the former coack back?
[16:35] ---
    Don't worry, I've already
    taken care of him.
[16:38] ---
    I leaked certain information
    to other team members.
[16:42] ---
    Information that Kamoshida
    told me before.
[16:47] ---
    Ryuji.
[16:51] ---
    Ryuji...
[16:51] ---
    Yeah.
[16:53] ---
    Nakaoka.
[16:54] ---
    I hear you told Kamoshida secrets about us
    to avoid the bastard's hazing.
[16:59] ---
    Unforgivable! You and me are–
[17:01] ---
    Wait!
[17:04] ---
    There's something you need to hear.
[17:09] ---
    So you guys are being played by Yamauchi.
[17:13] ---
    You have proof? A recording or something?
[17:16] ---
    I believe Ren.
[17:18] ---
    That's my proof!
[17:22] ---
    So what?
[17:24] ---
    It doesn't change the fact
    that you're a traitor!
[17:26] ---
    Plus it's got nothing to do
    with you, Sakamoto!
[17:30] ---
    Didn't you know? This guy snitched
    to Kamoshida about your mom!
[17:39] ---
    So?
[17:40] ---
    It doesn't matter after all this.
[17:42] ---
    Besides, that stuff
    with Kamoshida's been settled.
[17:46] ---
    You're not mad?
[17:47] ---
    You guys should let it go, too.
[17:49] ---
    Do your new track team together.
[17:52] ---
    Don't rely on that asshole, Yamauchi.
[17:55] ---
    Sakamoto...
[17:57] ---
    Forget it.
[17:58] ---
    I can't be an ace runner
    as long as he's around!
[18:03] ---
    It would just keep eating away at me!
[18:05] ---
    I can't have that,
    not when my dad is so proud of me.
[18:09] ---
    Takeishi, who are you livin' for?
[18:12] ---
    Your parents? Teachers? Society?
[18:16] ---
    Quit lookin' at them
    and take a look at yourself.
[18:19] ---
    Are you cool? Proud of yourself?
[18:21] ---
    Well, I...
[18:23] ---
    If you ain't cool, you're doin' it wrong!
[18:27] ---
    Me too...
[18:28] ---
    I was scared of losing a place to belong...
    That's why I did what Kamoshida told me.
[18:32] ---
    I see.
[18:34] ---
    But y'know, it ain't so scary
    not havin' a place you belong.
[18:38] ---
    Wimpin' out, lyin' to yourself
    and not even realizin' it.
[18:43] ---
    I'm more scared of bein' a crappy person!
[18:46] ---
    Well, I got the club disbanded,
    so I shouldn't talk.
[18:49] ---
    In fact, you're probably pissed...
[18:51] ---
    If you wanna hit me, go ahead.
[18:53] ---
    You can all take a swing.
[18:58] ---
    I see.
[19:00] ---
    Since you offered...
[19:03] ---
    W-Wait, you're serious?
[19:04] ---
    Yeah. I'm not holding back.
[19:06] ---
    I might take a few swings, Sakamoto.
[19:08] ---
    Wait a second! Wait...
[19:13] ---
    Now we're even. No hard feelings.
[19:17] ---
    Thanks, Sakamoto.
[19:20] ---
    Ow...
[19:21] ---
    I thought we were talkin' one punch...
[19:24] ---
    You made it.
[19:28] ---
    Thanks.
[19:33] ---
    Ouch...
[19:35] ---
    I didn't really think they'd beat me.
[19:38] ---
    But at least they looked satisfied,
    and now they can do the new club together.
[19:44] ---
    To be honest, I was scared the whole time.
    Scared of facin' them...
[19:49] ---
    But...
[19:51] ---
    It ain't like me to say this
    and I ain't even sure how...
[19:56] ---
    but I'm glad you were there.
[20:01] ---
    Come on, let's eat!
[20:04] ---
    I've been a regular here since my track days.
[20:07] ---
    But this is my first time with someone else.
[20:10] ---
    It's like celebrating
    for track club's comeback.
[20:12] ---
    There ya go!
[20:14] ---
    But starting tomorrow, I'll be focused
    on gettin' Treasure.
[20:17] ---
    Let's get fired up!
[20:19] ---
    Ramen shop novelty goods?
[20:22] ---
    You have weird taste.
[20:24] ---
    Really? I don't think it looks bad.
[20:27] ---
    Apparently Mr. Yamauchi isn't going
    to be made advisor after all.
[20:31] ---
    The members made their case to Ms. Chouno,
    who used her influence.
[20:35] ---
    So who'll be the advisor
    of the new track team?
[20:37] ---
    It seems the former coach is coming back.
[20:42] ---
    Call me again if you like, Amamiya.
[20:45] ---
    I don't get chosen much, so I'll provide
    you with some of my special services.
[20:49] ---
    Cleaning, laundry...
[20:52] ---
    And massages, for example.
[20:55] ---
    I may not look it, but I'm pretty good.
[21:03] ---
    What the hell?
[21:10] ---
    June already?
[22:52] ---
    Rehabilitation is proceeding swiftly.
[22:55] ---
    You are steadily entering into
    binding contracts with your companions.
[23:02] ---
    What will rise to the surface?
[23:05] ---
    That depends on your next choice.
[23:07] ---
    Proceed with caution, Inmate.
[23:10] ---
    The footsteps of great change
    are creeping ever closer.
[23:17] ---
    At around 8:00 AM, a car suddenly went
    out of control, killing four people.

[23:18] ---
    Good morning.
[23:20] ---
    Look at this. More mayhem.
[23:22] ---
    The male driver worked for the Goodness Food
    restaurant chain and had no medical issues.

[23:33] ---
    It seemed like an accident at first glance.
[23:35] ---
    But the driver's circumstances were suspicious.
[23:38] ---
    Yes, just like the subway accident.
[23:41] ---
    It was around that time I became
    convinced of a connection
[23:43] ---
    between the psychotic breakdowns
    affecting the country and the Phantom Thieves.
[23:48] ---
    I'm going to ask you about your next target.
[23:51] ---
    This man.
[23:52] ---
    Junya Kaneshiro was completely different
    from your two previous targets.
[23:55] ---
    How did you take down a big fish like this?
[23:58] ---
    Answer me!
