**[00:10] Lady**
Welcome...
**[00:13] Lady**
Well.
**[00:38] Lady**
You think a cheap little toy
like that is gonna get me off?
**[00:42] Lady**
Whip it out, sonny. Let's have some fun.
**[00:51] Lady**
*Multiple enemies... no, only one presence.*
**[01:08] Eita**
*Maybe I should go back to being a shut-in.*
**[01:12] Suzuki**
* I finally get to see*
* Yoshida Akikazu-sensei again...*
**[01:15] Suzuki**
* I can't wait to give him*
* a lot of negative criticism.*

**[03:11] Saruta**
Damn, this is a lot of blood!
**[03:16] Saruta**
Pretty impressive, though.
**[03:17] Saruta**
I guess if you're old-school enough a ninja,
**[03:20] Saruta**
you try to fulfill your duty to the very end.
**[03:30] Lady**
The voice I heard from the other
direction wasn't an illusion...
**[03:35] Lady**
but from a speaker installed in the shuriken.
**[03:39] Saruta**
Come on now, granny, no spoilers.
**[03:46] Lady**
Expanding your invisibility
suit for a moment...
**[03:50] Lady**
to blow the blood I got on it off...
and restore its complete invisibility...
**[03:55] Lady**
probably also... can neutralize some attacks...
**[04:03] Lady**
Commander Sasama... Big Sis Takachiho...
**[04:07] Lady**
I'll be... passing on... first...
**[04:19] Saruta**
That's one down.
***SIGN*** One Month Ago
**[04:35] (Flashback) Saruta**
Already?!
**[04:37] (Flashback) UN**
You seem to be surprised.
**[04:40] (Flashback) UN**
I know you're a failure, but you were trying
to flee your shinobi organization,
**[04:44] (Flashback) UN**
without a means to escape overseas.
**[04:48] (Flashback) UN**
Did you really think you could survive?
**[04:54] (Flashback) Saruta**
True enough...
**[04:56] (Flashback) Saruta**
But I... was betting on a rumor I heard.
**[04:59] (Flashback) UN**
And what might that rumor be?
**[05:02] (Flashback) UN**
Defecting to UN?
**[05:05] (Flashback) UN**
Working for us?
**[05:08] (Flashback) Saruta**
You're really with UN?
**[05:11] (Flashback) Saruta**
You've got the wrong idea here.
**[05:13] (Flashback) Saruta**
I didn't run because I wanted to survive.
**[05:20] (Flashback) Saruta**
The idea of living long enough for
my ninja skills to fade with age...
**[05:25] (Flashback) Saruta**
I'd rather die than go through that.
**[05:28] (Flashback) Saruta**
I'll be blunt with you:
**[05:31] (Flashback) Saruta**
As long as I get to fight,
I'll side with anyone!
**[05:36] (Flashback) Saruta**
Put me on a battlefield!
**[05:38] (Flashback) Saruta**
Give me a place where I can die fighting!
**[05:43] (Flashback) UN**
Very well.
**[05:45] (Flashback) UN**
I know the perfect place for you.
**[05:51] (Flashback) Saruta**
Gonna kill, and kill, and kill...
**[05:55] (Flashback) Saruta**
And keep killing until the day I die!
**[06:08] Saruta**
Now, who dies next?
**[06:21] Yoshida**
I finally finished my manuscript, so I'm
going to get a good night's sleep for once.
**[06:27] Yoshida**
Nobunaga, oh how he died, at Honnoji...
**[06:32] Yoshida**
That Akechi, he went rogue,
and it was such bad news!
**[06:36] Yoshida**
Along came Hideyoshi and...
**[06:39] Yoshida**
I think I had some strawberry
milk in my fridge.
**[06:45] Suzuki**
Oh, Yoshida-sensei.
**[06:47] Suzuki**
This manuscript is wonderfu—
**[06:49] Suzuki**
Eek! Sensei, what are you doing?!
We don't know each other that well yet!
**[06:53] Yoshida**
Whoa, hang on! I was just in the bath!
**[06:57] Yoshida**
What are you even doing here
in the first place, Suzuki-san?
**[07:02] Suzuki**
I came to pick up your manuscript.
**[07:05] Suzuki**
The door was unlocked.
**[07:08] Yoshida**
What? I'm pretty sure I locked it.
**[07:10] Yoshida**
And I thought I had a different editor now?
**[07:14] Suzuki**
No,
**[07:16] Suzuki**
I'm going to be your editor
until the day I die.
**[07:18] Yoshida**
U-Until death?
**[07:22] Junna**
You know the lady from the convenience store?
**[07:25] Junna**
I think she knows me, too.
**[07:29] Junna**
She was the one who went to the
"child welfare center" or whatever.
**[07:34] Eita**
I see.
**[07:35] Eita**
So she's not a bad person.
**[07:38] Eita**
Question, though: why are you at my place?
**[07:42] Junna**
Mom is late getting home,
**[07:45] Junna**
and you're the only one I know
who can take me to the store.
**[07:49] Eita**
You already know I just got back from there.
**[07:52] Eita**
Plus, you don't have any money.
You just wanna use mine.
**[07:57] Junna**
You're so cheap!
**[07:59] Junna**
I'm gonna go by myself and
when the police take me in,
**[08:02] Junna**
I'm gonna tell them the weird high school
kid in my building messed with me!
**[08:09] Eita**
Don't! They might actually come after me!
**[08:17] Suzuki**
*I rejected the majority of the manuscript.*
**[08:20] Suzuki**
* Now I can visit him on the way*
* home from school tomorrow!*

**[08:31] Suzuki**
*There was an attack at a convenience store...*
**[08:34] Suzuki**
*A shinobi was killed.*
**[08:37] Suzuki**
*She was one of our teachers...*
**[08:39] Suzuki**
*I honestly thought the old bat was immortal.*
**[08:45] Suzuki**
*Complete invisibility...*
**[08:46] Suzuki**
*Does this mean UN is behind the attack?*
**[08:51] Suzuki**
*And if they targeted a kunoichi...*
**[08:54] Suzuki**
*If the attacker left the store*
**[08:55] Suzuki**
* and then immediately ran into another*
* kunoichi walking around at night...*
**[09:05] Suzuki**
*Bingo!*
**[09:17] Suzuki**
* They really are invisible...*
* And they're concealing their presence.*
**[09:21] Suzuki**
* It really is different from the downgraded*
* Marishiten they let us use domestically.*
**[09:25] Suzuki**
*Yoshida-sensei... I might die today.*
**[09:34] Junna**
Huh? It's the violent lady.
**[09:37] Junna**
What'cha doing?
**[09:40] Suzuki**
Junna, run!
**[09:55] Junna**
Hey, it's Stitches! Where've you been?
**[10:00] Junna**
I was worried about you.
**[10:05] Suzuki**
Okay... I'm putting my weapon
down, so let the girl go.
**[10:10] Suzuki**
* Damn it... I lost track of them when*
* Junna showed up and caught my attention.*
**[10:15] Suzuki**
* The Ninja Lab came up with*
* this poison. D9-49-9386.*
**[10:20] Suzuki**
*If I can tag them, they'll die in two seconds.*
**[10:23] Suzuki**
* But that's long enough*
* for Junna to be killed...*
**[10:35] Saruta**
Is that cat talking?
***SIGN*** Is that you, Saruta?
**[10:41] Saruta**
Are you... Nekohira?!
**[10:43] Junna**
Violent lady...
**[10:45] Junna**
This cat is talking funny!
**[10:47] Junna**
And I can hear a man
behind me for some reason.
**[10:51] Suzuki**
Just don't move!
**[10:53] Suzuki**
* The enemy's a male...*
* And what's with that cat?*
**[10:57] Junna**
This is kinda scary!
**[10:59] Junna**
Ow, ow, ow!
**[11:00] Suzuki**
Don't hurt her! She's a civilian!
What do you want?
**[11:04] Suzuki**
* Good. As long as he's got a hold*
* on her, I can buy more time.*
**[11:09] Nekohira**
Hey, Saruta. That kunoichi...
**[11:12] Nekohira**
Isn't that Suzuki?
**[11:15] Saruta**
No way! Her face and voice
are totally different.
**[11:18] Saruta**
This is the girl they've got
infiltrating Kodan High School.
**[11:23] Nekohira**
It's easy to change your appearance.
**[11:27] Nekohira**
You know this already,
but I've got a real smell fetish.
**[11:30] Nekohira**
And becoming a cat
has given it a huge boost.
**[11:32] Nekohira**
I still remember the smell
of Suzuki's sweat vividly!
**[11:40] (Flashback) Saruta**
U-Um... Would you please...
I mean, do you wanna... well...
**[11:46] (Flashback) Saruta**
g-go out with me?
**[11:49] (Flashback) Suzuki**
I'm sorry!
**[11:53] (Flashback) Suzuki**
I know exactly how you feel, Saruta-kun.
**[11:57] (Flashback) Suzuki**
I feel the same way.
**[12:00] (Flashback) Saruta**
Suzuki-san...
**[12:02] (Flashback) Suzuki**
But when we graduate,
**[12:04] (Flashback) Suzuki**
there's no telling what kind of ninja
duty we'll be assigned to, right?
**[12:07] (Flashback) Suzuki**
Onikobe is going to be an overseas operator,
and who knows what'll happen to me?
**[12:12] Saruta**
* I saw her shoulders heaving as she walked*
* away, and all I could do was watch...*
**[12:18] (Flashback) Nekohira**
Hey, Saruta! I came up with a cat language!
**[12:21] (Flashback) Nekohira**
Check it!
***SIGN*** Ninja Technical School - Day of Graduation
**[12:26] Teacher**
The Kunoichi Program has
two valedictorians this year:
**[12:30] (Flashback) Teacher**
Suzuki and Onikobe.
**[12:32] (Flashback) Teacher**
The two of them have used the seduction
arts over the last three years,
**[12:37] (Flashback) Teacher**
resulting in 24 confessions for each
of them, numbering a total of 48.
**[12:41] (Flashback) Teacher**
And none of those 48 idiots realized
they were in a honey trap.
**[12:46] (Flashback) Nekohira**
O-Onikobe... You're kidding me.
**[12:50] Saruta**
*I'll never forget the smug look on her face!*
**[12:55] Nekohira**
Please, Saruta.
**[12:56] Nekohira**
Kill me while I've still got my memories!
**[13:00] Nekohira**
Come on, Saruta! Are you listening?
**[13:03] Saruta**
Oh, sorry.
**[13:05] Nekohira**
Oh, no... Hurry... My memories...
**[13:13] Junna**
Stitches ran off...
**[13:16] Junna**
Now what do I do?
**[13:21] Saruta**
This isn't where you die.
**[13:25] Saruta**
It'll be at Kodan High School.
**[13:33] Suzuki**
Are you okay?
**[13:35] Junna**
Not even a little!
**[13:38] Saruta**
*Suzuki...*
**[13:39] Saruta**
*Dying in a school suits you perfectly.*
**[13:45] Taira**
Well?
**[13:46] Ranran**
"Well" nothing. It doesn't even
show up on the footage.
**[13:51] Ranran**
See? Magazines fall over.
Plastic bottles, too.
**[13:54] Ranran**
They're not even being careful.
**[13:56] Ranran**
After this is when the lady gets cut down,
but you can't see the blade, either.
**[14:03] Taira**
Just get to the point.
**[14:05] Taira**
Was that thing built by the Ninja Lab?
**[14:08] Ranran**
Unfortunately, nothing exists
in my department
**[14:12] Ranran**
that can erase visibility for
a sword quite so perfectly.
**[14:16] Ranran**
This tech would have every
mouth back at the lab watering.
**[14:22] Onikobe**
Ninja Chief Kato, it's dangerous
to operate individually.
**[14:26] Kato**
Who do you think you're talking to?
**[14:29] Onikobe**
But, sir, this emergency
summons is suspicious.
**[14:32] Onikobe**
Might it be a trap?
**[14:34] Onikobe**
I should attend as your guard.
**[14:36] Kato**
You'll be on standby.
**[14:38] Onikobe**
My Marishiten's sensors are
picking up multiple readings.
**[14:42] Onikobe**
There are people in Marishiten 3.5s,
and they've already surrounded us.
**[14:47] Kato**
Did you not hear me when I said
you're on standby, Onikobe?
**[14:51] Onikobe**
Sir!
**[14:55] Ozu**
Come to think of it,
there was that overseas mission...
**[14:58] Ozu**
We were cleaning up a drug cartel after a
crackdown by the Navy SEALs, but it went south,
**[15:03] Ozu**
and we were trapped in wetlands just
like these with Commander Sasama.
**[15:08] Ozu**
I think the Marishiten model
at the time was 2.0?
**[15:11] Ozu**
They were so damn heavy,
on the fritz from the humidity...
**[15:14] Ozu**
Then the drug trafficking tunnels we were
hiding in got lit up with a flamethrower.
**[15:18] Ozu**
Everyone died but the three of us.
**[15:22] Ozu**
You and I got cooked pretty bad
protecting Chief Sasama.
**[15:26] Ozu**
Granted, that led to the Ninja Lab
giving me my old face back,
**[15:30] Ozu**
so I could finally come back to Japan.
**[15:32] Ozu**
And yet I find myself bored.
**[15:35] Ozu**
Maybe in the end, we've got an urge
to seek out conflict after all!
**[15:39] Kato**
Could you can the chitchat?
**[15:42] Ozu**
Relax. I mean, they might
think they're hidden,
**[15:45] Ozu**
but you can tell how much bloodlust
we're surrounded by, right?
**[15:48] Kato**
Yeah.
**[15:50] Ozu**
The Rainbow Hound is around, too.
**[15:54] Ozu**
Which means... Well, you know.
**[15:59] Kato**
*The Rainbow Hound...*
**[16:01] Kato**
*Kumogakure Nijiro is nearby.*
**[16:05] Kato**
* And if the Rainbow Hound is part of security,*
* then there must be jonin class around...*
**[16:12] Sasama**
Hey, there you are.
**[16:14] Kato**
Sasama...san?
**[16:17] Sasama**
Kato, have you lost some weight?
**[16:24] Kato**
*Could it be?!*
**[16:25] Taira**
Hey. Been a while, Kato.
**[16:30] Taira**
Why's Onikobe in Japan, working with you?
**[16:35] Taira**
And can you explain how, as soon as
she gets back, there was a killing?
**[16:42] Sasama**
Lower the sword, Taira.
**[16:49] Suzuki**
Hey, Onikobe.
**[16:51] Suzuki**
I know you're in there. Come on out.
**[16:54] Suzuki**
I haven't seen you since graduation.
Let's chat.
**[17:01] Suzuki**
Wow, going invisible? What's up?
**[17:04] Suzuki**
I'm putting myself out here.
Are you that scared of losing to me?
**[17:16] Suzuki**
Relax. The people who are
hiding won't make a move.
**[17:24] Suzuki**
So fast—
**[17:38] Suzuki**
Okay, stop.
**[17:40] Suzuki**
You really are a lot stronger.
**[17:42] Suzuki**
I guess I don't stand a
chance against someone
**[17:45] Suzuki**
who's been fighting on the front lines...
**[17:47] Suzuki**
I got attacked last night.
**[17:49] Suzuki**
By someone with complete invisibility.
**[17:52] Onikobe**
You think that was me?
**[17:54] Suzuki**
Hardly. You would've kept
going until I was dead.
**[17:59] Suzuki**
But the bigwigs suspect you and your boss.
**[18:02] Suzuki**
The attacker knew that I was
infiltrating a school on a mission.
**[18:07] Suzuki**
This is speculation,
**[18:09] Suzuki**
but I think it might be one of the classmates
we caught with our honey trap project.
**[18:14] Suzuki**
Can you think of anyone who'd hate us?
**[18:17] Onikobe**
Too many to remember specifics, but...
**[18:23] Onikobe**
I'll kill them if they come at me.
**[18:24] Suzuki**
I bet you will! Welcome home, Onikobe.
**[18:29] Suzuki**
Hard to tell with everyone wearing masks.
**[18:32] Suzuki**
All the guys in our class
asked you out, right?
**[18:36] Onikobe**
A few of the girls, too.
**[18:37] Suzuki**
Yeah, you always were a hit with the girls.
**[18:41] Suzuki**
I can understand why they'd be mad,
but who'd go as far as murder?
**[18:46] Onikobe**
There was a guy who confessed in cat talk.
**[18:50] Suzuki**
Oh, I remember!
**[18:51] Suzuki**
I cracked up when he tried that with me.
**[18:54] Suzuki**
Just kept meowing, and I had
no idea what he was saying.
**[18:57] Onikobe**
It was annoying enough
that I considered killing him.
**[18:57] Sign**
Saruta
**[18:57] Sign**
Nekohira
**[18:59] Suzuki**
What was his name? Nekota?
**[19:00] Onikobe**
No. Nekohira.
**[19:03] Suzuki**
Neko... Saru...
**[19:06] Suzuki**
There was that Saruta guy, too.
**[19:09] Suzuki**
I don't remember him too well,
but he had a real cowardly look to his eyes.
**[19:14] Suzuki**
Don't really remember anything else...
**[19:17] Suzuki**
I'm thinking, if things move fast,
**[19:18] Suzuki**
there'll be an attack at the school
before the end of the week.
**[19:22] Suzuki**
The Ninja Lab's looking into it, but...
**[19:25] Suzuki**
According to a kouhai who works there,
**[19:27] Suzuki**
this might've been a new suit deployed by UN.
**[19:32] Suzuki**
Newer than your Marishiten 3.5
or the latest 4.0, even.
**[19:37] Suzuki**
Isn't that exciting?
**[19:38] Onikobe**
I really wanna fight UN.
**[19:41] Suzuki**
Wanna kill him together?
**[19:42] Onikobe**
Yeah.
**[19:47] Ozu**
*Oh my God... That baby is adorable!*
**[19:51] Sasama**
The Ninja Lab thinks that the killing
**[19:54] Sasama**
was carried out by someone in a
new model of suit deployed by UN.
**[19:58] Sasama**
Kato, whose orders are you under?
**[20:02] Kato**
Okay, I understand.
**[20:04] Kato**
That explains why you have someone
higher-ranked than a jonin with you.
**[20:08] Sasama**
You're exactly right, Kato.
**[20:11] Sasama**
You're looking at one of the
seven chief NIN officers, Tara.
**[20:19] Ozu**
*Seriously?!*
**[20:20] Ozu**
* I thought he was Commander Sasama's*
* kid and gave him head pats!*
**[20:24] Sasama**
It hasn't been long since the surgery,
**[20:26] Sasama**
and we'll have to wait a while
before he's able to converse,
**[20:30] Sasama**
but he's here in order to establish
the lines of communication.
**[20:33] Kato**
*A brain transplant...*
**[20:35] Kato**
* I had heard there was a success*
* with animals, but even humans now?*
**[20:40] Ozu**
*Wait.*
**[20:41] Ozu**
* What happened to*
* Commander Sasama's kid, then?*
**[20:45] Ozu**
*Did they—*
**[20:51] Ozu**
*So cute! Like a little dumpling!*
**[20:54] Sasama**
All right, Kato.
**[20:56] Sasama**
Either you've been under orders from
someone else without my knowledge...
**[21:00] Sasama**
Or maybe you've been acting
on your own, without any orders.
**[21:05] Sasama**
All I need to do is ask the functional
head of NIN, Tara, to learn the truth.
**[21:12] Kato**
By all means, then.
**[21:15] Sasama**
I know better than most that you
wouldn't crack under NIN torture.
**[21:24] Sasama**
But I'm willing to overlook this string
of unilateral calls you've made.
**[21:29] Sasama**
In exchange, I want you to
demonstrate your loyalty to NIN.
**[21:35] Sasama**
Crawl between the Rainbow Hound's legs.
**[21:41] Suzuki**
Hey!
**[21:42] Suzuki**
Now they're suspecting me because of you!
**[21:46] Onikobe**
* Should I take her hostage...*
* or fight with her help?*
**[21:50] Suzuki**
*What now?*
**[21:52] Suzuki**
* Do I let myself get taken hostage,*
* or fight with Onikobe*
**[21:56] Suzuki**
* and try to get injured enough*
* to take tomorrow off school?*
**[22:00] Suzuki**
* If UN really does attack the school,*
* regardless of how the fight turns out,*
**[22:06] Suzuki**
*there's a chance NIN will use Escape.*
**[22:08] Suzuki**
*And if that happens, I die either way.*
**[22:11] Suzuki**
*Oh, Yoshida-sensei...*
**[22:15] Suzuki**
*I can't die. He'd be so sad.*
**[22:19] Suzuki**
*A shinobi's true job is to survive.*
**[22:22] Suzuki**
*Wait for me, Yoshida-sensei!*

Noguchi is ranked in the 90s for most

**[23:58] Noguchi**
For real? You're not lying again?
**[24:01] Kuro**
Come on, now. I've got an
"I die if I lie" disease.
**[24:04] Noguchi**
If that's a lie, then you're dead.
