**[00:05] ---**
All right! I finally turned
into a decent bat.
**[00:09] ---**
I'll show John and Ronaldo right awa--
Oh, yeah, they went shopping...
**[00:14] ---**
John, I'll buy you some donuts!
**[00:18] ---**
I guess I'll have to go find them, then.
**[00:28] ---**
I'm so tired...
**[00:38] ---**
All right! I could open
the window, at least.
**[00:41] ---**
In this form, even everyday
movements are hard.
**[00:44] ---**
Oh, well. To the outside world--
**[00:47] ---**
Let's...!
**[02:25] ---**
"The Bat's Close Call"
**[02:30] ---**
My adventure's about to end here!
**[02:33] ---**
Whoa! Why are all these
pigeons gathered here?
**[02:39] ---**
Are you all right? Were you attacked?
**[02:42] ---**
You saved me, Hinaichi--
**[02:45] ---**
S-So cute! Oh, my! You're so cute!
**[02:50] ---**
You're so calm.
Are you used to people?
**[02:53] ---**
You're so cute!
**[02:55] ---**
Wait, does she not realize it's me?
**[02:58] ---**
Hmm, is this...
**[03:01] ---**
Come on, it's time to eat.
**[03:03] ---**
...my big chance to be fawned over
and also get some blood?
**[03:08] ---**
Let's go together.
Come ride in here for a bit.
**[03:13] ---**
Wow, you're so bold to put me
next to your chest, Hinaichi!
**[03:19] ---**
When she starts walking, I have
to brace myself or I'll slide down!
**[03:24] ---**
I shouldn't go any deeper
into a girl's clothes.
**[03:27] ---**
It's not gentlemanly.
**[03:29] ---**
We're almost there.
**[03:31] ---**
Oh, I wonder what
Hinaichi's house is like...
**[03:37] ---**
"Shin-Yokohama Police Station"
**[03:37] ---**
"Shin-Yokohama Police Station"
Just in case, I'll have Handa
check if it's a vampire.
**[03:41] ---**
No, no, please wait. Why do you have
to do your job properly right now?
**[03:45] ---**
Where's the usual cookie monster?
**[03:48] ---**
I mean, this is the position
we're in right now!
**[03:51] ---**
"Vampire Control Division"
If my identity is revealed right now,
she'll never talk to me again!
**[03:53] ---**
If my identity is revealed right now,
she'll never talk to me again!
**[03:54] ---**
Or rather, my body will definitely be made
into one she can never talk to again!
**[03:57] ---**
Come on, don't struggle.
Handa will look at you right away--
**[04:00] ---**
Oh, Vice-Captain! You have a pet?
**[04:05] ---**
Sorry to ruin your good mood,
but that guy's not a normal bat!
**[04:11] ---**
This guy's--
**[04:14] ---**
Wait, Handa. It's me! Draluc!
I got lost! I can't let Hinaichi find out!
**[04:20] ---**
Please gloss over this somehow!
**[04:22] ---**
Hey, if it's not a normal bat,
then what is it?
**[04:24] ---**
What's the matter?
**[04:27] ---**
This guy's... um, uh... A crab.
**[04:33] ---**
A crab?! He's obviously a bat!
**[04:35] ---**
I-It's crab skilled at mimicry!
**[04:38] ---**
What are you saying? There's no way that's
a crab. Are you trying to trick her?
**[04:40] ---**
"Kanagawa Prefectural Police
Vampire Control Division - Sagyo"
What are you saying? There's no way that's
a crab. Are you trying to trick her?
**[04:44] ---**
There's no way I'd lie, Sagyo!
**[04:46] ---**
My mom has always told me
that lying is bad!
**[04:50] ---**
Sorry, Handa.
You're too terrible at lying.
**[04:52] ---**
This is a crab!
Common name: Bat-like crab!
**[04:53] ---**
"Infraorder: Anomura"
"Scientific name: Dokkaramitemo-Draluc"
This is a crab!
Common name: Bat-like crab!
**[04:55] ---**
"Infraorder: Anomura"
"Scientific name: Dokkaramitemo-Draluc"
Normally found in the Kanto region!
**[04:57] ---**
In the same family as the coconut crab,
it's technically a type of hermit crab,
**[05:00] ---**
--but it's still a crab!
**[05:00] ---**
--So stubborn!
--but it's still a crab!
**[05:02] ---**
Is it really a crab,
even though it's so cute?
**[05:04] ---**
Are you discriminating
against crabs, Vice-Captain?!
**[05:06] ---**
What's wrong with a cute crab?
**[05:07] ---**
No, it's not a matter of whether
it's cute or not! It's not a crab--
**[05:11] ---**
If I say it's a crab, then it's a crab!
**[05:13] ---**
Look carefully!
**[05:15] ---**
C-Crab...!
**[05:16] ---**
Crabs don't make that sound!
**[05:19] ---**
I agree. Sorry.
**[05:21] ---**
Idiot! They'll make whatever
sound they make!
**[05:23] ---**
"Crab" is the sound they
make during courtship.
**[05:29] ---**
C-Crab!
**[05:31] ---**
A courtship display!
It looks like he likes you.
**[05:35] ---**
What in the world am I doing?
**[05:37] ---**
--Hey.
--Sand!
**[05:39] ---**
Have you seen my fake mustache?
**[05:41] ---**
Please don't come out
suddenly like that, Captain.
**[05:43] ---**
You lost your mustache again?
**[05:45] ---**
It doesn't look good on you, you know.
**[05:47] ---**
Be quiet. What are you all doing?
**[05:50] ---**
What are we doing...?
**[05:52] ---**
Sand...
**[05:53] ---**
Just now I saw something that
looked like ashes! That must be--
**[05:56] ---**
Idiot! These are eggs!
**[05:58] ---**
You made a move on it, so it laid eggs!
**[06:00] ---**
You should take responsibility as a man!
**[06:02] ---**
There's no way I'd make a move on a crab!
**[06:04] ---**
Anyway, that's not a crab!
**[06:07] ---**
The crab turned into something gross!
**[06:10] ---**
My Little Snort--
**[06:12] ---**
When did you give him
such a terrible name?
**[06:14] ---**
It's because of that sound it was making.
**[06:20] ---**
Fool! This is a crab!
It's a crab larva!
**[06:26] ---**
"Egg"
It hatched from the eggs earlier!
**[06:27] ---**
"Larva (Zoea)"
It hatched from the eggs earlier!
**[06:28] ---**
"Larva (Megalopa)"
It hatched from the eggs earlier!
**[06:28] ---**
"Larva (Megalopa)"
Stop talking about crabs!
**[06:29] ---**
"Adult"
Stop talking about crabs!
**[06:30] ---**
What about Little Snort?
What happened to him?
**[06:33] ---**
It's... well... When crabs breed,
everything's passed on to one child,
**[06:36] ---**
so once the child is born,
it's the parents' fate to die.
**[06:39] ---**
You don't even know what you're
talking about yourself, do you?
**[06:42] ---**
--Ga-goo!
**[06:43] ---**
--Shut up!
--Ga-goo!
**[06:44] ---**
What do you mean, "Shut up"?!
You're the one that created him! Admit it!
**[06:48] ---**
You all need to cut it out!
**[06:50] ---**
Stop teasing me! He looks harmless,
but he's a vampire, isn't he?
**[06:55] ---**
You have to get him checked out.
**[06:57] ---**
Yeah!
**[06:59] ---**
I'll take care of it.
**[07:00] ---**
Did you find your moustache?
**[07:03] ---**
Yeah.
**[07:07] ---**
What was that, anyway?
What were you hiding?
**[07:12] ---**
Wait, he's got like a
developmental fever...
**[07:15] ---**
You're Draluc from Hunter
Ronaldo's place, right?
**[07:19] ---**
Y-Yes, I am!
**[07:21] ---**
I knew it. Why were you pretending
to be a crab looking like that?
**[07:25] ---**
I wonder...
**[07:28] ---**
How did you know who I was?
**[07:31] ---**
Because I know there's a strange vampire
at Ronaldo's who is bad at transforming,
**[07:35] ---**
likes video games, and dies in no time!
**[07:37] ---**
I read it in a book.
**[07:43] ---**
Captain! I'll take Little Snort afte--
**[07:45] ---**
Sand!
**[07:52] ---**

**[08:03] ---**
Oh, but first! I can turn into a bat now!
**[08:08] ---**
Look, look! See?
**[08:11] ---**
Here we go.
**[08:13] ---**
Hey, look...
**[08:18] ---**
I need to take out the trash.
**[08:21] ---**
lt's been three days since
the first child went missing.

It's been three days since
the first child went missing.
**[08:25] ---**
"Kidnap Capriccio"
According to the police statement,
**[08:26] ---**
--it is highly likely that it is
the work of the same culprit,
**[08:27] ---**
--I see. The kidnapper hasn't
made any demands?
--it is highly likely that it is
the work of the same culprit,
**[08:30] ---**
so they have set up an investigation HQ
to look for the missing children.
**[08:34] ---**
Yeah, it's likely the work of a vampire.
Vamp Control should be brought in, too.
**[08:39] ---**
Bye.
**[08:41] ---**
Morning, John!

Hm?
**[08:50] ---**
What should we do?
I'm worried about you going alone.
**[08:59] ---**
Then, take this personal alarm with you.
If anything happens, pull the string.
**[09:05] ---**
It's dangerous out there,
so make sure you're home by five.

"Shin-Yokohama Police Station"
Here's a summary of the situation.
**[10:06] ---**
"Shin-Yokohama Serial Child Kidnappings"
"Joint Investigation HQ"
The boys went missing in different places,
but they were all around the same time.
**[10:10] ---**
The boys went missing in different places,
but they were all around the same time.
**[10:12] ---**
They all went missing
right after the sun set.
**[10:15] ---**
It's highly likely that the
kidnapper is a vampire.
**[10:19] ---**
In other words, it's *our* job.
**[10:21] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[10:22] ---**
Vampires can't go out during the day.
**[10:25] ---**
Thinking about the kids, we need
to find the kidnapper tonight.
**[10:29] ---**
Let's form teams. We'll split up
and search all of Shin-Yokohama.
**[10:33] ---**
Mixed Vamp Control and hunter teams, huh?
**[10:35] ---**
I'm itching to get out there.
**[10:37] ---**
Vice-Captain, I'll focus my investigation
on the areas where the kids were taken.
**[10:41] ---**
Yeah, we're counting on your power now.
**[10:44] ---**
If you smell any vampires,
let us know immediately.
**[10:48] ---**
You're home already, right, John?
**[10:56] ---**
Yes? Ronaldo? What is it?
**[10:59] ---**
John? I just woke up...
**[11:04] ---**
It looks like he's not home yet.
**[11:06] ---**
Kidnapped? No way. He's probably
just loitering somewhere.
**[11:10] ---**
You're not worried about John?!
That's so inhumane!
**[11:18] ---**
"Unknown Number"
**[11:20] ---**
I'm getting a phone call. Wait a minute.
**[11:22] ---**
Yes, this is Draluc.
**[11:25] ---**
Oh, John?
**[11:26] ---**
"I'm sorry!"
**[11:28] ---**
"I'll be late getting home."
**[11:30] ---**
Did John come home?! Is he okay?!
He hasn't met anyone weird?!
**[11:34] ---**
John! John! John...!
**[11:36] ---**
Shut up!
**[11:37] ---**
--John! John! John!
--Sorry, John. What did you say?
**[11:40] ---**
"I'm sorry."
**[11:42] ---**
"Help--!"
**[11:46] ---**
Okay, thanks for waiting! Three bean jam
filled pancakes for Madillo.
**[11:54] ---**
John might've been kidnapped.
**[11:57] ---**
Jo-Jo-Jo-Jo-John was kidnapped...?!
**[12:00] ---**
What?! You huge, huge idiot!
**[12:04] ---**
Vice-Captain! It's probably
the same culprit!
**[12:07] ---**
Yeah, tell the prefectural police
that there's been another victim.
**[12:11] ---**
Ask the public if they
have any information!
**[12:13] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[12:14] ---**
What did you say? John was kidnapped?!
**[12:17] ---**
We should help, too!

of the armadillo, John.

**[14:28] ---**
John!
**[14:40] ---**
Did you find him, Ronaldo?
**[14:41] ---**
No, I can't find him anywhere.
Damn it, where did you go, John?
**[14:45] ---**
John!

**[15:07] ---**
Whoops.
**[15:08] ---**
Don't do anything stupid.
**[15:12] ---**
Foolish-looking thing.
You're Hunter Ronaldo's pet, aren't you?
**[15:16] ---**
Those damn hunters.
How dare they break my spirit effigy.
**[15:21] ---**
Thanks to them, I've lost my immortality.
**[15:25] ---**
I'll definitely pay you back
for the humiliation!
**[15:28] ---**
I'll slash you all to shreds!
**[15:33] ---**
First, I'll use you as bait
to lure Ronaldo out.
**[15:37] ---**
If there's not a crowd of them,
hunters are nothing to fear.
**[15:40] ---**
Kidnapper, I'll get you!
**[15:42] ---**
John, where are you?
**[15:44] ---**
If this is the same as the kidnapper
in the missing children case,
**[15:47] ---**
then they might be around here.
**[15:48] ---**
All right, call Handa.
We'll have him investigate this area.
**[15:53] ---**
John, we'll definitely save you!
**[15:57] ---**
Guys, let's settle this before dawn!
**[16:01] ---**
Huh? It's only been about two minutes
since I kidnapped Ronaldo's armadillo,
**[16:03] ---**
and there's already such a
huge net being cast for him?
**[16:07] ---**
Is this guy the prime
minister or something?
**[16:11] ---**
I'm not someone to falter
at some mere hunters.
**[16:13] ---**
You can just waste your energy
looking around for him.
**[16:16] ---**
What do you think you're doing,
you round thing?!
**[16:19] ---**
Wh-What if those guys gather here?
You trying to get me killed?!
**[16:23] ---**
Don't think you can get on my
good side with sweet rice jelly!
**[16:26] ---**
Who's there? I heard
a voice over that way!
**[16:30] ---**
Damn it, I can't believe I'm sneaking
around because of mere hunters.
**[16:35] ---**
Be quiet! What does "nu"
even mean, anyway?!
**[16:39] ---**
Wait, if this is such
an important armadillo,
**[16:42] ---**
then I can use him as a hostage for
someone other than Ronaldo, too.
**[16:47] ---**
I'll cut those who don't resist
to my heart's content...
**[16:50] ---**
Hey! Where are you, kidnapper?!
**[16:54] ---**
Was something there, Senya?!
**[16:55] ---**
No. I thought I heard something, though...
**[16:59] ---**
Jeez! I can't believe someone
would kidnap John and those kids!
**[17:03] ---**
I'll break the balls...
of anyone that cowardly!
**[17:09] ---**
B-Break balls...?
**[17:17] ---**
D-Don't look at me like that.
**[17:20] ---**
I'll slash you, armadillo.
Who do you think I am?
**[17:24] ---**
I'm Tsujigiri Nagiri.
You don't know who I am?
**[17:27] ---**
Then find out! Watch TV or something!
**[17:29] ---**
Don't underestimate me!
The only problem is their numbers.
**[17:32] ---**
I'll disappear into the crowd
and pick them off one by one--
**[17:33] ---**
"Vamima!!!"
I'll disappear into the crowd
and pick them off one by one--
**[17:35] ---**
"Vamima!!!"
**[17:37] ---**
Found him!
It's the kidnapper!
**[17:40] ---**
Everyone, come here!
Someone suspicious has John!
**[17:48] ---**
Damn it, I let my guard down.
At this rate, I'll be trapped like a rat.
**[17:52] ---**
"Pride" "Safety"
Since it's come to this... I'll leave
the armadillo somewhere and run away.
**[17:58] ---**
Don't try to console me.
**[18:02] ---**
I shouldn't have kidnapped
this round thing.
**[18:05] ---**
Don't forget... The next time we meet--
**[18:10] ---**
An inferior vampire!
**[18:10] ---**
"Inferior Vampire - Hidden Spider Monster"
An inferior vampire!
**[18:16] ---**
Speaking of which, the searchers
said something weird...
**[18:19] ---**
If this is the same as the kidnapper
in the missing children case,
**[18:22] ---**
then they might be around here.
**[18:24] ---**
Was that the child kidnapper?
**[18:27] ---**
Good riddance, anyway.
If I just let things be--
**[18:33] ---**
If I don't do anything, I won't
be able to return the armadillo,
**[18:36] ---**
and I'll be trapped like a rat.
**[18:37] ---**
Worst case, I'll even have the other
kidnappings pinned on me and be killed.
**[18:42] ---**
Huh? It looks like
I'm in a terrible pinch.
**[19:41] ---**
Found you, you worm!
**[19:47] ---**
Die!
**[19:52] ---**
Damn it, I can't believe
**[19:55] ---**
that I, Tsujigiri Nagiri, acted like
a hunter in order to protect myself.
**[20:00] ---**
Damn it!
**[20:04] ---**
Listen! It was to deceive the hunters!
It wasn't to save you!
**[20:11] ---**
If you tell anyone about this,
I'll turn you into mincemeat, armadillo!
**[20:17] ---**
It looks like a suspicious
man came this way.
**[20:19] ---**
It must be the culprit!
**[20:22] ---**
They already sniffed me out?
**[20:25] ---**
I'm not about to get caught...!
**[20:32] ---**
What, armadillo? Let me go!
**[20:46] ---**
John! John...!
**[20:51] ---**
John...

**[21:13] ---**

**[21:16] ---**
Too bad. Looks like there's

**[21:19] ---**
John bought them for *me*!
Idiot! Right, John?
**[21:23] ---**

I'll just give you the outside!
**[21:26] ---**
Oh, thanks--
**[21:34] ---**
Damn it, it's cold.

**[21:53] ---**
Sleazebag! Open this!
**[21:58] ---**
