[00:06] Reimi
    All of these are right!
[00:08] Reimi
    The mushroom and zombie were on point.
[00:10] Reimi
    And this white circle...
[00:11] Reimi
    It's not a meat bun, it's a golf ball.
[00:14] Reimi
    This funny-looking one's a jizo statue,
[00:16] Reimi
    which means the stops coming up...
[00:18] Akira
    Kusamochi and a bowl of curry?
[00:19] Nadeshiko
    They might be completely different.
[00:21] Nadeshiko
    His other pictures weren't
    very good, either.
[00:23] Reimi
    But I'm sure he's right!
[00:24] Akira
    Then the world disappearing...
[00:26] Reimi
    That part's wrong!
[00:28] Akira
    I knew it'd happen, but not this quickly.
[00:30] Reimi
    Don't scare us like that!
[00:32] Akira
    I didn't come up with it.
[00:33] Reimi
    It sounds even more true when
    it's coming from you. No thanks.
[00:36] Nadeshiko
    What if, though?
[00:37] Nadeshiko
    If the world was going to end,
    when would it happen?
[00:41] Nadeshiko
    Do you think it'll be after
    we turn into animals?
[00:43] Reimi
    It better not be sooner!
[00:44] Reimi
    We're on our way to find Yoka-chan now!
[00:47] Nadeshiko
    That's right.
[00:48] Nadeshiko
    I'd like to read Akira-chan's travelogue, too.
[00:50] Reimi
    I bet that old guy's just making stuff up.
[00:53] Akira
    But he showed up in front of us
    when he was headed the other way.
[00:56] Reimi
    Could he have a twin?
[00:57] Akira
    It's gonna happen. The end of the world.
[01:01] Reimi
    Then...
[01:01] Reimi
    Today might be my last chance for this.
[01:04] Akira
    Cut it out with those hands!
[01:05] Reimi
    It's the last time, so I won't stop,
    even if you complain!
[01:08] Reimi
    Tickle, tickle!
[01:10] Nadeshiko
    Stop before you start fighting!
SIGN    Train to the End of the World
[02:47] Shizuru
    Funny seeing you up here, Pochi-san.
[02:49] Shizuru
    Two more stops until Ikebukuro.
SIGN    Sakuradai
SIGN    Ekoda
SIGN    Higashi-Nagasaki
SIGN    Shiinamachi
SIGN    Ikebukuro
[02:52] Shizuru
    Have you caught Yoka's scent?
[02:54] Shizuru
    Just here on a whim?
[03:09] Akira
    Sorry, Nadeko-chan.
[03:11] Reimi
    Are you hurt?!
[03:12] Nadeshiko
    I'm fine, I'm fine.
[03:14] Akira
    What happened?!
[03:15] Reimi
    What?
[03:15] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan!
[03:16] Shizuru
    There's something ahead.
[03:22] Akira
    Animals?
[03:23] Nadeshiko
    Of the stuffed variety?
SIGN    Episode 10 A True Symbol of Rebellion and Decadence
[03:35] Reimi
    They're not attacking?
[03:36] Reimi
    Any chance the chubby one's a kusamochi?
[03:39] Nadeshiko
    I don't think so, but let's stay on guard.
[03:50] Shizuru
    Huh?
[03:52] Shizuru
    Dad?
[03:55] (Flashback) Shizuru's Father
    Don't worry!
[03:57] (Flashback) Shizuru's Father
    We're just going to check out
    some other towns.
[03:59] (Flashback) Shizuru's Father
    We'll be back as soon as we
    figure out why this happened.
[04:02] (Flashback) Shizuru's Father
    I reckon it'll take two hours.
[04:04] (Flashback) Shizuru's Father
    Two weeks at most.
[04:08] Shizuru
    Wrong guy.
[04:10] Shizuru's Father
    Is that you, Shizuru?
[04:11] Shizuru
    What? Not the wrong guy?!
[04:13] Shizuru's Father
    Oh! It's Shizuru, kyurun!
[04:15] Shizuru's Father
    Eisaku, Hide-bo, it's my daughter!
[04:17] Eisaku
    That's Shizuru-chan, shupi?
[04:19] Hide-bo
    Oh, you're right!
[04:19] Hide-bo
    It's really her-ccho!
[04:20] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan's dad?!
[04:22] Akira
    And the fire department folk
    who never came back.
[04:25] Shizuru's Father
    Reimi-chan and Akira-chan!
[04:27] Shizuru's Father
    Which means...
[04:28] Shizuru's Father
    This here's Nadeko-chan!
[04:33] Nadeshiko
    That's Pochi-san.
[04:34] Shizuru's Father
    Oh, still not one for a joke,
    huh, Nadeko-chan?
[04:37] Nadeshiko
    It's been much too long.
[04:39] Shizuru
    Enough of that.
[04:40] Shizuru's Father
    Shizuru, you've grown big
    while I've been away, kyurun.
[04:43] Shizuru
    You're the one who's shrunk, Dad.
[04:45] Shizuru's Father
    Nice one!
[04:45] Shizuru
    No, it's not!
[04:47] Reimi
    Mister, mister!
[04:48] Reimi
    I've gotten pretty tall too, right?
[04:49] Shizuru's Father
    Sure have!
[04:51] Shizuru's Father
    Nadeko-chan's grown up as well.
[04:52] Shizuru's Father
    Akira-chan...
[04:53] Shizuru's Father
    Akira-chan's pretty much the same.
[05:00] Shizuru's Father
    Pochi-san's scarier than I remember.
[05:03] Shizuru's Father
    He's big enough to gobble me up, kyurun!
[05:04] Reimi
    Look, look!
[05:05] Reimi
    We drove that thing here!
    Isn't that awesome?
[05:07] Shizuru's Father
    That's one feisty ride you've got there.
[05:10] Reimi
    Not surprised at all, huh?
[05:11] Shizuru's Father
    Just look around you.
[05:12] Shizuru's Father
    It'll take more to make me
    quake in my boots.
[05:14] Shizuru
    Oh, yeah. Mom said that if I ran into you,
[05:17] Shizuru
    I'm to tell you to snap out
    of it and come home.
[05:20] Reimi
    Now he's quaking in his boots.
[05:21] Shizuru's Father
    Was she mad?
[05:22] Shizuru
    She was fed up.
[05:23] Shizuru's Father
    What do I do?
[05:24] Shizuru's Father
    She's even scarier like that!
[05:25] Shizuru
    Beats me.
[05:26] Shizuru's Father
    I told her I was going to just
    scope things out, kyurun.
[05:29] Shizuru
    It's been two years.
[05:30] Shizuru's Father
    But, but...
[05:31] Shizuru's Father
    I've sent back a few letters!
[05:32] Shizuru
    Those don't count as letters.
SIGN    I'm gonna be a little longer
[05:34] Shizuru
    Mom had no words.
[05:36] Eisaku
    Is everyone in Agano doing well, shupi?
[05:38] Reimi
    Yeah, totally!
[05:39] Reimi
    Masaharu-san gets a little carnivorous
    once in a while, though.
[05:42] Eisaku
    That's Masa for you.
[05:43] Eisaku
    He's always been like that.
[05:45] Hide-bo
    Even we have our animal
    instincts take over at times.
[05:47] Hide-bo
    Masa-san's got it worse.
[05:49] Shizuru
    So, what have you been doing all this time?
[05:51] Shizuru's Father
    Taking a break.
[05:52] Shizuru's Father
    Both we and our cart took
    a real beating, kyurun.
[05:55] Shizuru
    Seriously, why do you keep saying "kyurun"?!
[05:57] Shizuru
    And why do you look so round now?
[05:58] Shizuru's Father
    Oh, you noticed?
[05:59] Shizuru
    Of course I did!
[06:00] Shizuru's Father
    Well?
[06:01] Shizuru
    It's gross.
[06:02] Shizuru
    That's why I was ignoring it,
    but it's even grosser that you won't stop.
[06:05] Shizuru's Father
    Watch your mouth! I'll get mad,
    even with your friends here!
[06:07] Hide-bo
    Chikura-san, she's right-ccho!
[06:09] Hide-bo
    It really is creepy to have old men
    going "kyurun" or "shupi"!
[06:13] Shizuru's Father
    We kinda... got turned into this.
[06:17] Shizuru
    By who?
[06:17] Shizuru's Father
    The folks in Shiinamachi.
[06:19] Shizuru
    Why?
[06:20] Shizuru's Father
    Well, we ran into a weird
    old guy on the way.
[06:22] Shizuru's Father
    Said Ikebukuro was a real mess.
[06:24] Shizuru's Father
    So we were on our way to check it out, and
    they picked a fight with us in Shiinamachi.
[06:29] Shizuru's Father
    I don't get it, but I turned all cute.
[06:31] Shizuru
    So you lost?
[06:32] Shizuru's Father
    We didn't lose, kyurun!
[06:33] Shizuru
    No more "kyurun"!
[06:34] Shizuru's Father
    If I wasn't an animal, I'd have trounced
    them with my Agano jiu-jutsu!
[06:38] Shizuru's Father
    I'm telling the truth!
[06:39] Shizuru's Father
    I got one of 'em good!
[06:41] Shizuru's Father
    Look! My battle trophy!
[06:42] Shizuru
    A beret?
[06:43] Shizuru's Father
    They were all wearing these.
[06:45] Shizuru's Father
    Want it?
[06:45] Shizuru
    No thanks.
[06:46] Akira
    I do!
[06:47] Shizuru
    Eh?
[06:47] Shizuru's Father
    Oh, take it. Here.
[06:49] Akira
    Rampo, Guevara...
[06:51] Akira
    A true symbol of rebellion and decadence!
[06:53] Shizuru's Father
    So, what about you?
[06:55] Shizuru's Father
    Did you come out here to find us?
[06:56] Shizuru
    We're going to Ikebukuro.
    To bring Yoka home.
[06:58] Shizuru's Father
    Yoka-chan?
[07:00] Eisaku
    Chikura-san, so was that
    really Yoka-chan, shupi?
[07:02] Shizuru
    You met her?!
[07:03] Shizuru's Father
    We saw her in Shiinamachi.
[07:06] Shizuru's Father
    But, well...
[07:16] Shizuru's Father
    She was like your mother coming home
    late after drinking.
[07:19] Reimi
    Like we'd know that.
[07:20] Shizuru
    And?
[07:21] Shizuru's Father
    That's it.
[07:22] Shizuru's Father
    Things got hairy right after that.
[07:24] Reimi
    Think she's still in Shiinamachi?
[07:25] Shizuru's Father
    Who knows?
[07:27] Shizuru
    Was it even really Yoka?!
[07:29] Shizuru's Father
    Well, when you put it like that, maybe not...
[07:32] Shizuru
    Which is it?!
[07:33] Shizuru's Father
    I don't know, kyurun!
[07:35] Shizuru
    I said, stop it with the "kyurun"!
[07:36] Nadeshiko
    Um...
[07:37] Nadeshiko
    Was there anything you noticed about her?
[07:40] Shizuru's Father
    Oh, she really grew out her hair.
[07:43] Shizuru
    It was long to begin with!
[07:44] Shizuru's Father
    Hey, it almost reached the ground!
[07:46] Shizuru
    That can't have been Yoka, then.
[07:49] Shizuru
    Yoka cuts her own hair.
[07:51] Shizuru
    She's real good at it, too.
[07:55] Shizuru's Father
    Thanks a lot, really.
[07:57] Nadeshiko
    You have short arms,
    so it's the least we could do.
[07:59] Reimi
    Oh, it's Zenjiro-san!
[08:01] Shizuru
    I forgot!
[08:02] Akira
    I couldn't hear it at all.
[08:03] Nadeshiko
    That's Reimi-chan for you.
[08:05] Shizuru's Father
    Zenjiro?
[08:06] Shizuru's Father
    Did he get better, kyurun?
[08:09] Shizuru
    Currently past Higashi-Nagasaki.
[08:12] Zenjiro
    Sounds like they found Shizuru's father.
[08:15] Makoto
    That's not important now!
[08:16] Makoto
    You need to tell them what matters!
[08:18] Zenjiro
    I know that!
[08:20] Shizuru
    Um...
[08:21] Shizuru
    "Stay the course and the
    world will... disappear"?!
[08:25] Reimi
    So it really was true.
[08:27] Shizuru
    "However, put an end to it
    and turn world normal again"?
[08:34] Shizuru
    Maybe we can turn the world back to normal!
[08:38] Shizuru
    "Possible if you stop 7G
    gone haywire in Ikebukuro."
[08:44] Reimi
    Seriously? It's that easy?
[08:45] Zenjiro
    Just wait.
[08:47] Shizuru
    "Looking into a way now..."
[08:50] Shizuru
    "Once we find out, will let you kno—
    choo choo-choo..."
[08:54] Shizuru's Father
    The hell's he mean by "choo choo-choo"?
[08:56] Shizuru
    He still can't talk for long.
[08:58] Shizuru
    Although it's not as bad now.
[08:59] Shizuru's Father
    What's this about turning
    the world normal again?
[09:02] Shizuru's Father
    You mean, if we do something in Ikebukuro,
    I can go back to being human?!
[09:05] Shizuru
    I'm not sure, but he did say Ikebukuro
    was their stronghold or whatever before.
[09:09] Shizuru's Father
    Then I'll go with you, kyurun!
[09:11] Shizuru's Father
    Those beret guys might get
    in our way like before.
[09:14] Shizuru
    You don't need to come with us.
[09:15] Shizuru's Father
    I'd be worried if you kids went alone!
[09:17] Shizuru
    We'll be fine.
[09:18] Shizuru
    I'm still human, you know.
[09:19] Shizuru's Father
    I'm going!
[09:20] Shizuru
    You really don't have to!
[09:21] Shizuru's Father
    I can't leave something this important
    to my daughter and her friends!
[09:24] Shizuru
    We're just going to meet Yoka!
[09:27] Shizuru's Father
    We might be able to turn
    the world back to normal!
[09:29] Shizuru
    That doesn't matter!
[09:31] Shizuru's Father
    What?
[09:32] Shizuru
    I mean, it does! But I don't care!
[09:35] Shizuru's Father
    Kyurun?
[09:38] Nadeshiko
    It's fine, mister.
[09:40] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan's really strong.
[09:42] Shizuru's Father
    Maybe she is, but still...
[09:44] Nadeshiko
    I can use a bow,
[09:46] Nadeshiko
    Akira-chan's a snappy thinker,
[09:48] Nadeshiko
    and Reimi-chan can just plain snap.
[09:50] Reimi
    I'll snap real good.
[09:50] Reimi
    Show 'em some sexy violence.
[09:52] Nadeshiko
    You look weaker than when
    you were a real wolverine.
[09:56] Nadeshiko
    And what's more, you're hurt.
[09:58] Reimi
    If it looks like we can change
    the world back, we will.
[10:01] Shizuru's Father
    That's one laid-back attitude...
[10:03] Eisaku
    Chikura-san.
[10:04] Eisaku
    Girls grow up a lot faster in
    two years than you'd think, shupi.
[10:09] Eisaku
    Have faith in your daughter and let them go.
[10:12] Eisaku
    We should go back to Agano and
    put our families at ease first.
[10:16] Shizuru
    Go and see Mom again.
[10:19] Shizuru
    It'll be too late once you fully turn
    into animals and can't talk.
[10:24] Shizuru's Father
    I guess you've got this in the bag
    with the Agano jiu-jitsu I taught you.
[10:29] Shizuru's Father
    Okay!
[10:29] Shizuru's Father
    Go on, Shizuru!
[10:30] Shizuru's Father
    Avenge your father!
[10:35] Reimi
    Bye-bye!
[10:36] Nadeshiko
    Please be careful!
[10:38] Hide-bo
    Thanks!
[10:38] Shizuru's Father
    Yeah!
[10:39] Eisaku
    You too!
[10:44] Shizuru's Father
    Get 'em good!
[10:47] Hide-bo
    What you said earlier really got to me.
[10:50] Eisaku
    That's what it means to have a family.
[10:52] Hide-bo
    You said it.
[10:54] Hide-bo
    Even though you're a bachelor.
[10:55] Shizuru's Father
    Okay, let's get this cart
    back on the tracks!
[10:57] Group
    Yessir!
[11:02] Reimi
    Man, Shizuru-chan's dad
    hasn't changed at all.
[11:06] Shizuru
    As big of an idiot as always.
[11:07] Reimi
    I thought he was really funny.
[11:10] Nadeshiko
    Wait, what about the tracks
    past Higashi-Agano?
[11:13] Nadeshiko
    The part that's uncrossable now.
[11:14] Shizuru
    I'm sure the water's gone down.
[11:15] Shizuru
    If not, they'll come up with something.
[11:17] Nadeshiko
    You think so?
[11:18] Shizuru
    Dad'll be fine. Even if he is an idiot.
[11:21] Nadeshiko
    That's true.
[11:23] Nadeshiko
    Oh, not the idiot part.
[11:26] Reimi
    You know, what does turning
    the world normal again mean?
[11:29] Reimi
    I don't really get it.
[11:31] Akira
    Isn't it exactly what it sounds like?
[11:33] Nadeshiko
    I think he means going back
    to how things were before 7G.
[11:37] Reimi
    Honestly, I don't know which I prefer now.
[11:40] Reimi
    I did want things to go
    back if it was possible,
[11:43] Reimi
    but I'd already kinda given up.
[11:45] Reimi
    Things now are pretty
    chill in their own way.
[11:48] Akira
    My travelogue is ending up
    more and more chaotic.
[11:51] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan.
[11:53] Nadeshiko
    I think worse than the world
    not going back to normal
[11:56] Nadeshiko
    would be you and Yoka-chan
    not going back to how you were.
[11:59] Reimi
    Me too!
[12:00] Shizuru
    Yeah.
[12:04] Reimi
    Besides, there's no way we can
    stop 7G from running wild.
[12:08] Akira
    We don't know that yet.
[12:10] Akira
    We could suddenly wake up one day
    and find out we have incredible powers.
[12:14] Reimi
    Like what?
[12:19] Akira
    O sacred bitter melon!
[12:21] Akira
    Gather within me and unleash
    your bitter meloning power!
[12:32] Reimi
    Nothing happened.
[12:34] Reimi
    Akira, you fraud.
[12:36] Reimi
    Ah, that's mine!
[12:39] Reimi
    Give it back!
[12:40] Akira
    Yum.
[12:40] Reimi
    Spit it out!
[12:41] Akira
    Okay, I will.
[12:42] Reimi
    Don't spit it out!
[12:43] Nadeshiko
    Play nice!
[12:52] Reimi
    Hey, the weather's gotten worse.
[12:55] Reimi
    The sky's suddenly gone dark with clouds.
[12:58] Reimi
    It was clear just a minute ago.
[12:59] Nadeshiko
    Oh, you're right.
[13:01] Reimi
    Over there.
[13:03] Nadeshiko
    Huh?
[13:03] Reimi
    Is that Shiinamachi Station?
[13:05] Nadeshiko
    Yeah.
[13:05] Reimi
    What do we do?
[13:06] Nadeshiko
    What do you mean?
[13:07] Reimi
    Should we keep going?
[13:09] Reimi
    Shizuru's dad said they attacked him.
[13:13] Nadeshiko
    Let's go past it!
[13:14] Reimi
    Okay!
[13:14] Nadeshiko
    I'll go tell Shizuru-chan and the others.
[13:16] Nadeshiko
    Oh, you were awake—
[13:22] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan!
[13:24] Reimi

[13:28] Reimi
    We can't get to Ikebukuro like this...
[13:38] Reimi
    Ugh, I don't want to get off.
[13:40] Reimi
    I just know we're gonna
    run into some weirdos.
[13:42] Akira
    Either way, we can't move on.
[13:43] Shizuru
    It's fine!
[13:44] Shizuru
    I'm stronger than my dad.
[13:46] Reimi
    Really?
[13:46] Shizuru
    Not that I'd know!

    Why'd I get my hopes up?

    "Her Majesty Queen Yoka of Nakatomi attended

[14:24] Reimi
    They're calling her a queen!
[14:26] Nadeshiko
    If this really is Yoka-chan...
[14:29] Reimi
    She looks a little too scary
    to be Yoka-chan.
[14:31] Akira
    A rebellious phase?
[14:32] Nadeshiko
    Who are these people next to her?
[14:33] Reimi
    They look like bad guys!
[14:35] Nadeshiko
    Are these the people in power who don't
    want the world to go back to normal?
[14:41] Tokiwaman A
    So it's you!
[14:43] Tokiwaman A
    The ones trying to reach Ikebukuro!
[14:45] Tokiwaman A
    Unfortunately, we can't
    let you go to Ikebukuro.
[14:48] Tokiwaman A
    Your path ends here in Shiinamachi,
    where you'll become our art!
[14:52] Reimi
    Huh? What's that mean?
[14:53] Nadeshiko
    Become their art...
[14:55] Nadeshiko
    In other words, we're going
    to serve as their art models.
[14:57] Nadeshiko
    They'll probably strip us naked
    and do pervy stuff to us!
[15:00] Reimi
    You're awful!
[15:01] Tokiwaman A
    No, we won't!
[15:02] Shizuru
    Oh, that hat!
[15:03] Shizuru
    They're probably the ones who attacked Dad!
[15:05] Akira
    Wait, that's the kusamochi
    from the hermit's map!
[15:08] Tokiwawoman
    Ah! You there!
[15:09] Tokiwawoman
    That beret!
[15:10] Tokiwawoman
    That's the one those weird
    animals stole from Mr. T!
[15:13] Tokiwawoman
    Give it back!
[15:13] Akira
    No way!
[15:14] Tokiwawoman
    Grr!
[15:15] Tokiwaman A
    It looks like you kids ruined the story
    we set up for Oizumi-gakuen!
[15:20] Reimi
    Oizumi-gakuen?
[15:21] Nadeshiko
    Story?
[15:22] Akira
    NeriAli?
[15:23] Reimi
    Hey, wait!
[15:24] Reimi
    So the ones who made a big mess
    of the world of NeriAli...
[15:27] Tokiwaman A
    Exactly!
[15:28] Tokiwaman A
    Alice posed too large of a threat.
[15:30] Tokiwaman A
    Her charisma could have meant
    danger for Ikebukuro!
[15:34] Reimi
    So it's your fault that Alice died?!
[15:36] Akira
    You'll pay!
[15:36] Tokiwaman A
    That's my line!
[15:39] Tokiwaman A
    Gekiga Beam!
[15:43] Reimi
    Nadeko-chan!
[15:46] Nadeshiko
    Oh, my.
[15:47] Nadeshiko
    I'm perfectly fine.
[15:49] Reimi
    No, you're not!
[15:50] Akira
    She's way over the top now.
[15:52] Nadeshiko
    Over the top in what fashion?!
[15:53] Nadeshiko
    Good heavens! What has befallen me?!
[15:55] Tokiwaman F
    Her mind will soon turn into that
    of the character we invented, as well!
[15:59] Reimi
    Turn her back right now!
[16:00] Tokiwaman A
    No can do!
[16:01] Tokiwaman F
    You can stop its progress
    by leaving this town.
[16:03] Tokiwaman F
    Just turn back already!
[16:05] Shizuru
    It'll be faster to kick their butts
    with Agano jiu-jitsu.
[16:07] Tokiwaman F
    If you can, that is!
[16:08] Tokiwaman F
    Your serialization gets axed here!
[16:13] Reimi
    You're cruisin' for a bruisin' now!
[16:14] Reimi
    I'll send ya to hell!
[16:16] Tokiwawoman

[16:20] Shizuru
    Wuh-oh!
[16:21] Shizuru
    I can't use my jiu-jitsu!
[16:22] Reimi
    But you're one cute cat.
[16:23] Reimi
    I dig it.
[16:24] Nadeshiko
    We must protect Akira-chan at all costs!
[16:26] Akira
    What character will I get turned into?
[16:28] Akira
    If I could pick, ukiyo-e?
[16:29] Akira
    Or maybe something avant-garde,
    like futurism?
[16:32] Tokiwaman A
    My new serialization begins here!
[16:36] Tokiwaman A
    Hmph!

    What?!
[16:38] Akira
    Fauvism!
[16:40] Akira

[16:45] Tokiwaman A
    What?!
[16:48] Akira
    Something came out!
[16:49] Tokiwaman A
    Mr. F!
[16:53] Tokiwaman F
    I'm scared! I'm scared!
[16:54] Tokiwaman F
    What is this?
[16:55] Tokiwaman F
    What is this?!
[16:57] Tokiwawoman
    So you know how to use
    the powers of the beret?!
[17:03] Akira
    That's right.
[17:04] Akira
    Surreal Bomber!
[17:05] Reimi
    Oh, she's just pretendin' she knew.
[17:07] Reimi
    I can tell.
[17:08] Nadeshiko
    So the beret possesses powers, they say.
[17:10] Shizuru
    Maybe that's our key to victowy!
[17:12] Tokiwaman A
    Hah! Your pitiful imaginations don't
    stand a chance against us mangaka!
[17:16] Tokiwaman A
    Take this!
[17:17] Tokiwawoman
    Yeah!
[17:18] Tokiwaman F
    Uh-huh!
[17:24] Akira
    Hi-yah!
[17:35] Reimi
    See that?
[17:36] Reimi
    That's the imagination of Akira,
    the gloomy bookwor—
[17:40] Tokiwaman A
    What is this?
[17:41] Tokiwaman A
    It makes no sense!
[17:42] Tokiwaman F
    You're breaking the conventions here!
[17:44] Reimi
    What's the big idea, Akira?
[17:45] Akira
    Try it out.
[17:46] Akira
    Your thoughts will come to life.
[17:47] Reimi
    Okay.
[17:48] Reimi
    BL Flash!
[17:54] Tokiwaman A
    Mr. F, are you okay?
[17:56] Tokiwaman F
    Don't look at me like that, Mr. A...
[17:59] Tokiwaman A
    Mr. F...
[17:59] Tokiwawoman
    What in the world?
[18:00] Tokiwaman F
    Mr. A...
[18:01] Tokiwawoman
    I like it!
[18:01] Tokiwawoman
    Very nice!
[18:03] Nadeshiko
    Sparkly Spur!
[18:07] Tokiwaman A
    What's this?
[18:08] Tokiwaman A
    I suddenly feel like I shouldn't be here...
[18:10] Tokiwaman F
    Like there's no demand for us!
[18:11] Tokiwawoman
    Hey, that's not true!
[18:13] Shizuru
    Hot-Bwooded Fire!
[18:15] Shizuru
    Pew pew!
[18:19] Tokiwaman A
    We're going to lose at this rate!
[18:20] Tokiwaman F
    Time to show our guts and fight!
[18:21] Tokiwaman F
    Prepare yourselves!
[18:23] Tokiwawoman
    I'll follow you to the ends of the Earth!
[18:24] Tokiwaman A
    We don't need no stinking berets!
[18:31] Tokiwaman A
    It can't be!
[18:31] Tokiwaman F
    What sloppy plotting!
[18:33] Tokiwawoman
    It's sacrilege! Utter sacrilege!
[18:34] Shizuru
    Why are you twying to stop us, anyway?
[18:37] Reimi
    Yeah, exactamundo!
[18:38] Reimi
    Is it 'cause we got that charisma thing
    you were jawin' about with Alice?
[18:41] Tokiwaman A
    Not in the slightest!
[18:43] Tokiwawoman
    We were given the powers of the beret,
    so we have to follow orders!
[18:45] Tokiwawoman
    That's all it is!
[18:46] Nadeshiko
    You were given powers? Truly?
[18:48] Shizuru
    What's aww that about?
[18:49] Tokiwawoman
    It seems we have no choice...
[18:51] Tokiwawoman
    but to tell our tale.
[18:53] Reimi
    You can keep it to yerselves!
[18:54] Reimi
    Just answer our questions.
[18:56] Tokiwawoman
    How many years ago was it?
[18:57] Reimi
    I just said, save it!
[18:59] Tokiwaman A
    We came to this place with grand ambitions!
[19:02] (Flashback) Tokiwaman A
    We'll change the world with manga!
[19:05] Tokiwaman F
    But for some reason, our art
    styles weren't well-received,
[19:08] Tokiwaman F
    and they weren't popular in the least.
[19:10] Tokiwaman F
    Days and months of fruitless effort passed by.
[19:14] (Flashback) Tokiwawoman
    Stories should follow convention.
[19:16] (Flashback) Tokiwawoman
    Clichés are what move people the most.
[19:18] Tokiwaman A
    But those no-good editors dismissed us,
    calling us out-of-date...
[19:21] Tokiwaman A
    Wait, what?!
[19:23] Tokiwaman A
    Seriously?
[19:23] Tokiwaman A
    You're seriously going to
    skip the explanation?!
[19:25] Tokiwaman F
    No one moves during a flashback!
[19:27] Tokiwaman F
    That's convention, right there!
[19:28] Tokiwawoman
    We haven't even gotten to 7G happening!
[19:31] Tokiwaman A
    Or how these powers are a paid subscription,
[19:33] Tokiwaman A
    or the most important part,
    who gave us them!
[19:36] Akira
    We'll manage somehow.
[19:38] Group
    D'oh!
[19:39] Akira
    Artistic expression has no limits!
[19:47] Tokiwaman A
    Even if changing times lead to
    all sorts of constraints...
[19:51] Tokiwaman F
    New forms of expression
    in manga will be born!
[19:53] Tokiwawoman
    We were the ones who had given up all along!
[19:56] Reimi
    They've found enlightenment somehow.
[19:58] Nadeshiko
    A matter of no import.
    Return us to normal posthaste.
[20:00] Shizuru
    Hey, hey!
[20:01] Shizuru
    Have you seen this girl befowe?
[20:05] Tokiwaman A
    You really do know the queen?!
[20:07] Shizuru
    Yoka's our fwiend!
[20:08] Shizuru
    We're on our way to find her!
[20:10] Tokiwaman A
    That's absurd!
[20:11] Tokiwaman A
    She's not someone who
    nobodies like you can meet!
[20:15] Tokiwaman F
    They say the queen is the mother
    of Ikebukuro as we know it,
[20:18] Tokiwaman F
    not to mention the mighty being
    who gave us these powers!
[20:23] Tokiwawoman
    You're a threat to the queen
    and this very world itself!
[20:27] Tokiwawoman
    That's what Pontaro-sama told us!
[20:29] Shizuru
    Pontaro?
[20:30] Reimi
    Who's that?
[20:30] Tokiwawoman
    You can see him right there!
[20:32] Tokiwawoman
    The not-so-tall one next to her!
[20:35] Shizuru
    Pontaro...
[20:36] Tokiwaman A
    Anyway, if you value your lives,
[20:37] Tokiwaman A
    don't do anything to upset the queen!
[20:40] Tokiwaman A
    She'll turn you into egg custard!

    We saw the same term on the police box.
    Whatever does it mean?
[20:45] Tokiwaman A
    Literally what it says!
[20:46] Akira
    It really was a form of torture...
[20:47] Reimi
    Yoka-chan would never do that!
[20:49] Shizuru
    Pontaro! I wemember now!
[20:52] Shizuru
    Zenjiro-san mentioned him!
[20:54] (Flashback) Zenjiro
    That damn rotten dunghead Pontaro!
[20:57] (Flashback) Zenjiro
    How many times did I tell him
    to give up on 7G?
[20:59] Shizuru
    So he's the one wesponsible for 7G?
[21:02] Reimi
    For real?
[21:03] Reimi
    What's Yoka-chan doin' with a fink like him?
[21:06] Shizuru
    I weally don't know!
[21:07] Akira
    An evil vizier!
[21:09] Reimi
    A weevil is here?
[21:10] Reimi
    What d'ya mean?
[21:11] Nadeshiko
    You mean Yoka-chan is being
    hoodwinked by that scoundrel?
[21:14] Akira
    Or rather, being manipulated by him?
[21:16] Akira
    But the Yoka-chan we know
    would never trust him.
[21:19] Shizuru
    7G...
[21:21] Akira
    There is a chance that it plays a role here.
[21:23] Nadeshiko
    Then that means we definitely need
    to put a stop to it, does it not?
[21:27] Reimi
    This is way over my head, dudettes.
[21:35] Reimi
    We're back to normal!
[21:36] Nadeshiko
    Seems like it.
[21:37] Tokiwaman A
    We canceled the subscription for our powers.
[21:40] Tokiwawoman
    Fine by me. That thing cost a fortune.
[21:59] Shizuru
    So that's...
[22:01] Shizuru
