[00:01] Announcement
    A mushroom warning has been issued.
[00:09] Announcement
    Please take precautions
    to avoid inhaling spores.
[00:14] LadyA
    Whoa, it's huge.
[00:16] LadyA
    What is that?
[00:17] LadyB
    You ever seen anything that big before?
[00:21] LadyC
    Nope.
[00:24] Tirol
    Maybe I should get another job.
[00:27] Madam
    Hey, come on, girls, get inside.
    What if you inhale spores?
[00:31] Ladies
    Coming.
[00:34] Miner
    Bad news!
[00:35] Miner
    The doctor's...
[00:36] Miner
    Panda Clinic's been hit by a terrorist attack!
[00:39] Madam
    What did you say?!
[00:40] Madam
    What about Doctor Nekoyanagi?
    He's safe, right?
[00:43] Miner
    We don't know yet...
[00:44] Bunnymask
    There you are!
[00:46] Bunnymask
    What are you doing over here?
[00:49] Tirol
    Oh, it's you guys. H-Have you
    actually been searching for him?
[00:52] Bunnymask
    He's causing havoc over at the West Gate.
[00:54] Tirol
    Is that so? Let's leave him to whoever's
    in charge at the West Gate, then.
[00:58] Bunnymask
    Come on, let's go.
[00:59] Tirol
    Huh? No, I was only told to search downtown...
[01:02] Tirol
    Whoa!
[01:03] Tirol
    W-Wait! Don't touch me there!
SIGN    Tag Team
[02:53] Tirol
    W-Wait! Just hold on a second!
[02:56] Tirol
    I-I was against this!
[02:58] Tirol
    I told them such a kind man
    could never be a villain, right?
[03:03] Tirol
    Yet that governor forced me to do this!
[03:05] Bisco
    Hey. Who in the hell are you people?
    What happened to the Watch?
[03:10] Tirol
    H-Hey, killing such an innocent girl
    would just haunt your dreams, right?
[03:15] Tirol
    I-I'm quitting this line of work today,
    so I could even give you the job—
[03:22] Tirol
    Scary.
[03:24] Tirol
    He's scary.

    What an awful case of Rusting.
[03:44] Milo
    At this point, even if his injuries heal...
[03:47] Jabi
    I only... have about a month left.
[03:52] Milo
    Huh? You're already conscious?
[03:54] Milo
    Oh, I'm doing a blood transfusion,
    so don't move.
[03:57] Milo
    I didn't know your blood type,
    but luckily, it's compatible.
[04:02] Jabi
    Blood type?
[04:04] Jabi
    What's that?
[04:06] Milo
    Hey, I said don't move!
[04:08] Jabi
    So are you a doctor?
[04:12] Jabi
    What happened to those punks?
[04:14] Milo
    Akaboshi-san's drawing their attention
     away by causing chaos outside.
[04:20] Jabi
    You're pretty skilled despite your age.
[04:23] Jabi
    Ow.
[04:25] Jabi
    Guess I shouldn't move yet.
[04:28] Milo
    Um, who are you, exactly?
[04:30] Milo
    How do you know Akaboshi-san?
[04:34] Jabi
    I'm Jabi.
[04:37] Jabi
    I'm Bisco's...
[04:38] Jabi
    Well, I guess you could say I'm his mentor.
[04:44] Pawoo
    Did a human shoot that arrow?
[04:47] Bisco
    What's your deal, anyway? You're strong.
[04:50] Bisco
    Where'd you learn that stunt?
[04:52] Bisco
    They teach you to swing poles
     in bridal training in Imihama?
[04:56] Bisco
    I'm the captain of the Imihama
    Watch, Nekoyanagi Pawoo.
[04:59] Bisco
    Surrender and await your
     sentence, Mushroom Keeper.
[05:02] Bisco
    Next time, I'll split your skull.
[05:04] Bisco
    Aren't you supposed to tell people
     that before you go whacking them?
[05:08] Bisco
    You look like you'd kill
     me even if I surrendered.
[05:11] Bisco
    Did I kill your parents or something?
[05:13] Pawoo
    I warned you!
[05:27] Bisco
    That's some awful Rusting she's got.
[05:30] Bisco
    She can move like that even at death's door?
[05:33] Bisco
    I'd compliment your prowess
    in spite of all that Rusting,
[05:36] Bisco
    but move too much and
     it'll hasten the spread.
[05:38] Pawoo
    You say that without shame... after spreading
    the Rust to all the towns you've been through?!
[05:45] Bisco
    Y'know, I'm sick of saying this,
[05:49] Bisco
    but mushrooms don't spread the Rust!
[05:51] Bisco
    Mushrooms...
[05:52] Jabi
    ...grow by consuming Rust.
[05:54] Jabi
    It's the only method we currently
     have of purifying the Rust.
[05:59] Milo
    So it really is true.
[06:02] Jabi
    You don't look all that surprised.
[06:04] Jabi
    I guess that's a doctor for you,
     even if you are from the city.
[06:10] Milo
    Don't overdo it! Any normal person
     with your wounds would've died.
[06:17] Milo
    Lots of creatures have gone extinct
    because of the Rust Wind.
[06:21] Milo
    But life evolved to withstand the Wind.
[06:25] Milo
    I always thought there had to be
    some organism in the outside world
[06:29] Milo
    that had adapted to the Rust in
    a way that it could thrive off of it.
[06:33] Jabi
    Your theory was correct.
[06:35] Jabi
    In short, that organism is...
[06:38] Bisco
    ...mushrooms.
[06:39] Pawoo
    Utter nonsense.
[06:45] Pawoo
    Who would ever believe
     something so preposterous?
[06:48] Pawoo
    If what you say is really true,
[06:50] Pawoo
    go and save Japan from
    the Rust Wind right now.
[06:54] Bisco
    I can't do that because of bastards like you!
[06:59] Jabi
    How easily this gets misunderstood
     is a cause of great distress.
[07:02] Jabi
    Mushroom Keepers do grow mushrooms
     in places dense with Rust,
[07:06] Jabi
    but they don't start purifying right away.
[07:09] Jabi
    So the casual observer just sees
    mushrooms growing where Rust is dense.
[07:14] Milo
    So that's how the rumors that Mushroom
     Keepers spread the Rust started,
[07:19] Milo
    and why everyone persecutes them.
[07:20] Jabi
    Well, not much can be done about that.
[07:23] Jabi
    Mushroom Keepers can't exactly socialize.
[07:26] Jabi
    And not all Mushroom Keepers
    have good intentions, either.
[07:31] Jabi
    Some use their control of forbidden
    mushrooms in plots to amass fortunes—
[07:38] Milo
    I'm sorry! I pushed you too hard.
[07:40] Jabi
    Don't make an old timer talk so much.
[07:45] Sign
    Imihama Watch Station
[07:45] WatchA
    Vice Captain! The captain has engaged
    Akaboshi near the West Gate.
[07:49] ViceCap
    All right, let's get over there, too.
[07:55] BunnymaskB
    Looks like the special forces failed.
[07:57] Kurokawa
    Hmph.
[07:58] Kurokawa
    Well, if that woman from the Watch with
    the iron pole kills him, that's fine, too.
[08:05] Pawoo
    Yap, yap, yap.
[08:07] Pawoo
    I will not listen to the words of a villain!
[08:34] Tirol
    Those two are monsters!
[08:38] Bisco
    We just plant them to grow in places
    we pass through that are dense with Rust.
[08:43] Bisco
    You should be grateful to us,
[08:45] Bisco
    not trying to bash my head
    in with a weapon like that.
[08:49] Pawoo
    You really think I'd believe
     a fairy tale like that?
[08:53] Pawoo
    You've covered every town
    you've been to in mushrooms,
[08:56] Pawoo
    and your goal is to exact vengeance for the
     persecution of Mushroom Keepers, isn't it?
[09:00] Bisco
    Wrong!
[09:02] Bisco
    I'm looking for the Rust Eater.
[09:05] Milo
    The Rust Eater?
[09:08] Jabi
    Among Mushroom Keepers,
[09:10] Jabi
    it is said to be a legendary mushroom
    born from the prayers of a dying hero.
[09:15] Bisco
    It's a mushroom that'll completely absorb even
     the deepest Rust, be it from man or machine.
[09:21] Bisco
    I want to use it to save someone.
    That's why I've been traveling.
[09:25] Bisco
    So lower your pole and let me through.
[09:27] Bisco
    I have no business or grudge with Imihama.
[09:30] Pawoo
    Imi
[09:30] Pawoo
    You think I'll be deceived
     by your stupid lies?
[09:34] Pawoo
    Imi
[09:34] Pawoo
    Prepare yourself, Akaboshi!
[09:34] Pawoo
    Imi
[09:34] Pawoo
    Imi
[09:35] Pawoo
    My pole will reach you where you stand!
[09:39] Pawoo
    Why is Akaboshi so composed?
[09:41] Pawoo
    Is the sight of my Rusting upsetting him?
[09:45] Pawoo
    No, it doesn't matter what
    this Mushroom Keeper spouts.
[09:49] Pawoo
    Our next clash will end with me winning!
[09:51] Bisco
    Well, it's not like I haven't gained
    anything from coming to Imihama.
[09:56] Bisco
    You have a great doctor.
[09:57] Bisco
    He's taking care of us.
[09:59] Bisco
    His name's Nekoyanagi.
[10:01] Bisco
    You two are a lot alike.
[10:03] Bisco
    Do you know Milo?
[10:06] Pawoo
    Milo?
[10:09] Pawoo
    Did you do something to Milo?!
[10:11] Pawoo
    What did you do to Milo, you bastard?!
[10:13] Bisco
    Did I do something to him, you ask?

[10:45] Ota
    I'd heard Mushroom Keepers can grow
     mushrooms even on barren land.
[10:49] Ota
    I guess it was actually true.
[10:51] Inoshige
    Dumbass. What the hell are
    you doing fawning over it?
[10:54] Inoshige
    It's common sense that
    mushroom spores spread Rust.
[10:57] Inoshige
    If we don't do something
    about that giant mushroom,
[11:00] Inoshige
    this whole area will be
    covered in Rust in no time.
[11:03] Bisco
    Hey, bearded pig!
[11:05] Inoshige
    Huh?
[11:11] Inoshige
    Come on!
[11:12] Bisco
    Give the King Trumpet your
    hippo dung once a week!
[11:17] Bisco
    It won't grow as well with just sand!
[11:19] Inoshige
    Y-You want us to fertilize the mushroom?!
[11:22] Bisco
    Listen closely, you pig bastard!
[11:24] Bisco
    Mushrooms consume Rust to grow!
[11:30] Bisco
    I try to be nice, but seriously,
    every single one of them...
[11:34] Bisco
    Why won't they just frickin' listen?!
[11:36] Inoshige
    I'll remember your face, Akaboshi!
[11:39] Inoshige
    Next time, I'll rip out your tongue! You hear me?!
[11:51] Jabi
    There's this nest of monsters called
    Weeping Child Ravine in Akita Prefecture.
[11:56] Jabi
    One of the Mushroom Keepers
    died there while hunting big game,
[11:59] Jabi
    and when they went to bury him,
    they found it growing there.
[12:03] Milo
    Weeping Child Ravine?
[12:08] Jabi
    I feel dizzy.
[12:11] Milo
    Jabi-san!
[12:13] Milo
    Jabi-san?!
[12:15] Bisco
    So what if I did do something?
[12:17] Bisco
    What do you think I did to him?
[12:19] Bisco
    Don't you know what people call me?
[12:32] Pawoo
    You poisoned my iron pole?
[12:34] Bisco
    If you hadn't stood around and
    listened to me talk, you would've won.
[12:39] Pawoo
    Akaboshi!
[12:47] Bisco
    It wasn't a fair tactic, but it was hard
    for me to hit you since you're pretty.
[13:07] Pawoo
    Milo...
[13:26] Jabi
    Don't move.
[13:29] Jabi
    Put down the hostage and put your hands up.
[13:43] Jabi
    No mercy for a recovering old fart, huh?
[13:46] Bisco
    Jabi!
[13:50] Bisco
    Y-You can move now?
    What happened to your wounds?!
[13:54] Jabi
    See for yourself. I had
    six bullets in me, apparently.
[13:57] Bisco
    You damn geezer!
[13:59] Bisco
    If you're gonna pull through,
    act healthier from the start!
[14:03] Jabi
    Don't be dumb. I thought I was going to die.
[14:06] Jabi
    If it wasn't for that Panda brat's skill,
    it would've been the end of the line for me.
[14:11] Bisco
    He did this?
[14:13] Jabi
    Though, you know, aren't I
    incredible for living through it, too?
[14:17] Bisco
    You dumbass! It's all because...
[14:20] Bisco
    you made it sound like
     those were your last words.
[14:23] Bisco
    I...
[14:24] Milo
    J-Jabi-san!
[14:26] Milo
    What are you thinking, pretending
     to be dead in front of a doctor?!
[14:29] Milo
    I told you not to move around yet!
[14:33] Bisco
    Milo, you pulled it off?
[14:35] Milo
    No, I only did what I could.
[14:38] Milo
    That injection of yours worked.
[14:41] Bisco
    It's the way of the Mushroom Keepers
    to repay their debts of gratitude.
[14:45] Bisco
    If there's anything I can
    do for you, name it.
[14:47] Milo
    No, I only...
[14:52] Milo
    Pawoo!
[14:55] Bisco
    So you two do know each other?
[14:57] Milo
    Sh-She's my older sister.
[14:59] Bisco
    She was going all crazy earlier,
    so I shot her with some knockout poison.
[15:03] Bisco
    She's just asleep.
[15:05] Milo
    Knockout poison?
[15:07] Milo
    Akaboshi-san, you won?! Against Pawoo?!
[15:10] Bisco
    Mushrooms will still be
    effective on her Rust.
[15:13] Bisco
    Use the stuff you gave to Jabi earlier.
[15:29] Milo
    Incredible...
[15:30] Jabi
    Bisco. This is no time to be spacing out.
[15:32] Jabi
    The Watch's iguana cavalry
     are closing in on us.
[15:35] Jabi
    It won't take 'em more than five minutes.
    Next time we're surrounded, we won't get away.
[15:39] Bisco
    Got it.
[15:41] Bisco
    The North Gate's close. Let's go.
[15:43] Jabi
    Yeah.
[15:44] Jabi
    I'll hold them off. You go on ahead.
[15:47] Bisco
    Sure.
[15:48] Bisco
    Wait, what?!
[15:50] Bisco
    What do you mean, you'll hold them off?!
[15:52] Bisco
    There's no point if you don't come with me!
[15:54] Jabi
    Use your head, will ya?
[15:56] Jabi
    There's no way an old man who just
    took six bullets can travel right away!
[16:01] Bisco
    Use your head, old man!
    What about the synthesis?
[16:05] Bisco
    Even if I harvest the Rust Eater, I need someone
    who can make it into medicine on the spot.
[16:10] Jabi
    Glance.
[16:12] Bisco
    Huh?
[16:14] Bisco
    Have you gone senile, Jabi?
[16:17] Milo
    Akaboshi-san! Please take me with you!
[16:20] Bisco
    The old man's been putting
    ideas in your head, hasn't he?!
[16:23] Milo
    He told me about the Rust Eater. I can help you.
[16:27] Milo
    I can synthesize medicine,
    and I can heal your wounds.
[16:30] Bisco
    Dumbass!
[16:32] Bisco
    Who'd want to take you along? You're likely
    to die the moment I take my eyes off you!
[16:36] Milo
    You just said you'd grant any wish I had.
[16:39] Bisco
    I'm not some genie in a lamp.
[16:42] Bisco
    It's too dangerous outside the walls
     for a city brat like you to survive.
[16:47] Bisco
    You'd be lucky to get off with losing
    one or both of those weak arms of yours.
[16:51] Milo
    So what?
[16:53] Milo
    I might be able to save my sister,
    the only family I have.
[16:57] Milo
    I'd gladly give my arms for that.
[16:59] Milo
    I don't even care if I lose my head!
[17:13] Cavalry
    Squads 2 and 3, fan out.
    Loop around to the North Gate.
[17:20] Jabi
    Bisco. It's the Watch.
[17:22] Jabi
    There's no more time for debating.
[17:27] Bisco
    If you don't wanna die,
    then listen to what I say.
[17:30] Bisco
    Mushroom Keepers fundamentally
    operate in pairs on journeys.
[17:34] Bisco
    If one dies, the other soon follows.
[17:36] Milo
    Akaboshi-san!
[17:37] Bisco
    Also! That right there. Stop with
     the pain-in-the-ass formality.
[17:42] Bisco
    Partners are always equals.
[17:45] Bisco
    I'm Bisco.
[17:46] Bisco
    You're Milo.
[17:48] Bisco
    Got it?
[17:49] Milo
    Yes, I underst—
[17:52] Milo
    Got it, Bisco.
[17:56] Jabi
    So a new tag team has been formed.
[17:59] WatchA
    We're positive they fled to this area!
[18:01] WatchA
    Leave no stone unturned!
[18:03] WatchA
    Found them!
[18:11] Jabi
    Go. Get moving.
[18:13] Jabi
    Take care, Bisco.
[18:17] Bisco
    Hey!
[18:20] Bisco
    Hey, what're you gonna do about
     your sister? Leave her sleeping?
[18:25] Milo
    She'll be fine. The guys in the
    Watch will take her into their care.
[18:29] Milo
    I put lots of those mushroom
     injections in her pouch, too.
[18:32] Milo
    Oh, but...
[18:34] Bisco
    This might be the last time
    you ever see her, y'know.
[18:37] Bisco
    We don't have much time,
    but take one last good look at her.
[18:40] Milo
    You've protected me time after time.
[18:44] Milo
    You've been my shield.
[18:47] Milo
    So just this one time, it's my
     turn to protect you, Pawoo,
[18:51] Milo
    and get hurt in your place.
[18:54] Milo
    Okay?
[18:56] Milo
    I promise...
[18:59] Milo
    I promise I'll save you.
[19:01] Milo
    So wait for me, Sis.
[19:07] Milo
    I'm done, Bisco. I'm ready to go.
[19:10] Bisco
    Took you long enough, idiot!
[19:13] Bisco
    You wanna end our journey before it starts?!

[19:32] WatchB
    No, he's coming this way!
[20:00] Bisco
    Does "Milo" mean what I think it does?
[20:03] Milo
    Yeah. Milo means " strong child."
    My mother gave it to me.
[20:07] Bisco
    Not a bad name, then,
[20:10] Bisco
    is it?!
[22:09] Milo
    It's called the Nikko War Memorial.
[22:12] Milo
    Long ago, when they scrapped all
    the tanks and stuff that had rusted,
[22:17] Milo
    they interred them in this
     temple and purified them.
[22:20] Milo
    That's why the torii are made
    from barrels that look like
[22:24] Milo
    the main gun off of something.
[22:26] Bisco
    What's that statue up on the roof?
[22:29] Bisco
    The one with three monkeys lined up.
[22:31] Milo
    It's a sacred statue. The three wise monkeys:
    "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil."
[22:36] Milo
    They're the three fast
