Names are handled on a best-effort basis depending on the info on the source file. Dialogue is left as is.) [01:39] Mitsugu     This remote tropical island     is known only to a select few [01:42] Mitsugu     and completely unknown to     those unfamiliar with it. [01:46] Mitsugu     The last paradise on earth,     not found on any map. [01:49] Mitsugu     Unbaba Island. [01:59] Mitsugu     This heavenly sight would     excite anyone, not just men. [02:05] Mitsugu     Unbaba Island is the site of the     Blood Donation Club's training camp. [02:11] Mitsugu     The midsummer sun, blue seas, white beaches, [02:15] Mitsugu     and beautiful young women clad in swimwear     essential to any summer seaside. [02:24] Mitsugu     Though there are some oddballs present, too. [02:27] Mitsugu     And some we could've done without. [02:31] Mitsugu     And creepy ones. [02:34] Mitsugu     However, either way, the Blood Donation Club     has this marvelous beach all to itself. [02:43] Mitsugu     Our path to this intoxicating world     started with a certain website... [02:50] Sign     School Infirmary [02:50] Sign     Blood Donation Club (Temp) [02:51] Chihiro     A training camp? [02:54] All     Yes, ma'am. [02:55] Chihiro     A Blood Donation Club's training camp? [02:59] Chihiro     Are you going to train with syringes? [03:01] Chihiro     You need government     certification to use these. [03:06] Chihiro     Find the vein beneath the skin,     take aim, and plunge it in. [03:11] Chihiro     Stimpak! [03:13] Chihiro     Rather, gently slide the needle in. [03:18] Chihiro     Words can't describe that moment of bliss. [03:21] Chihiro     Did you think a bunch of high school     students would get to do that, you fools? [03:25] Mitsugu     That's not what I had in mind. [03:27] Kanbara     Doctor, a club training camp... [03:29] Horita     Takes place on a summer beach in Okinawa. [03:31] Okada     Club members dress in swimwear... [03:33] All     ...and enjoy good clean fun     with the opposite sex. [03:37] Jinko     I'll kick you brutes out of the club! [03:39] Mitsugu     Again, that's not what I had in mind. [03:41] Kanbara     Once night falls... [03:43] Horita     We'll party and drink beer. [03:44] Okada     And have fun horsing around. [03:46] Nami     Not that. [03:48] Maki     We'll enjoy discussing our youth. [03:50] Kaoru     And deepen our friendship through     cheerful club activities. [03:53] Chihiro     In other words, you want to     go on a trip and cut loose. [03:59] All     Exactly. [04:00] Chihiro     Fools! [04:03] Chihiro     We don't have the budget for that. [04:06] Chihiro     We were just barely able to     establish a night school. [04:08] Chihiro     Not only that, but the school     hasn't given a single cent [04:12] Chihiro     to this educationally useless     Blood Donation Club. [04:22] Chihiro     You're not listening!

[04:31] Mitsugu     I've been trying to tell you that     Kaoru found us a good deal. [04:35] Kaoru     Now's your chance, miss. [04:38] Koaru     Click. [04:39] Sign     Tropical Deserted Island [04:40] Okata     A tropical dessert island? [04:42] Horita     "Deserted" island, you idiot. [04:43] Kanbara     Can't you read? [04:45] Sign     Paradise by the Sea [04:46] Okata     Paradise by the See? [04:48] Horita     Wrong "sea." [04:49] Kanbara     Could you stop making jokes that don't     make sense without onscreen text? SIGN    Life [04:52] Okada     Wash away your life's troubles. [04:53] Kaoru     The whole thing, all at once. [04:56] Maki     One week on an unmapped desert island. [04:59] Nami     All meals are covered at a rate     of 10,000 yen per person. [05:03] Jinko     First come, first served.     Limited to first 12 customers. [05:06] Jinko     Campaign running now. [05:08] Chihiro     That's cheap. Or rather, super cheap.     No, insanely cheap. [05:13] Mitsugu     Right? [05:13] Mai     I'm definitely going. [05:16] Kaoru     I'm going. [05:17] Nami     I'd be willing to visit a tropical island. [05:19] Maki     I'll be coming along for the Cinema Club's     first overseas on-location shoot. [05:24] Jinko     Men and women camping together on a     tropical island is a potential minefield. [05:27] Jinko     I'll keep close watch over everyone. SIGN    Tongue [05:30] Katsuno     The only thing to do is go. [05:32] Mitsugu     You're coming, too? [05:34] All     Monsters can't come. [05:36] All     Don't discriminate. [05:37] Chihiro     Shut up, all of you. [05:39] Chihiro     It goes without saying that the club advisor [05:41] Chihiro     is required to participate     in any training camps. [05:43] Chihiro     I'll have to join you, as well. [05:46] All     Yeah! [05:48] Mitsugu     And that's how we wasted no time     planning our training camp. [05:52] Mitsugu     Perhaps we should've noticed at this point     that there was reason it was so cheap, [05:57] Mitsugu     and that Heaven and Hell were just     one step away from each other. [06:11] Maki     Since it was such a cheap package,     I wasn't expecting a direct flight... [06:16] Nami     But we've been traveling in reverse in the hold     of a less than 50-ton converted fishing vessel. [06:21] Jinko     It takes three days and     two nights to get there. [06:24] Kaoru     Which means it'll also take three     days and two nights to get back. [06:27] Chihiro     Then our stay on the island will     only two days and one night. [06:32] Katsuno     The only thing to do is puke. [06:42] Mitsugu     However, once we arrived, it was     undoubtedly a blissful paradise. [06:55] Maki     Nice. Very nice. [06:58] Maki     I'm impressed by this 4K 240FPS HS camera. [07:02] Mitsugu     Mai, we're heading back. [07:06] Mitsugu     No matter how well we protect you from     UV rays, they're still not good for you. [07:11] Mai     Okay. [07:14] Nami     I'm going for another swim. [07:18] Mitsugu     Leaving the Okinawan fisherman's     daughter Nami behind, [07:21] Mitsugu     we headed back to our lodgings. [07:24] Mitsugu     We had no idea that this would     lead to that tragedy later. [07:31] Sign     Fishman [07:34] Mitsugu     However, there wasn't a shred of fantasy     or hope to be found at our lodgings [07:38] Mitsugu     that dragged us back to reality. [07:42] Old Woman     Welcome. [07:49] Old Woman     Please make yourselves at home. [07:55] Kanbara     Um, what about the crowds of     beautiful women you advertised? [08:00] Old Woman     That's next month's campaign. [08:03] Okada     Which means... [08:05] Horita     This inn... [08:07] Old Woman     Indeed. I barely manage     to run this place myself. [08:11] Old Woman     There's a long sad history. [08:15] Kanbara     Okay, okay. Spare us the history lesson. [08:18] Okada     It's almost refreshing     to be this disappointed. [08:21] Okada     Right, guys? [08:22] Katsuno     How is this refreshing? [08:24] Katsuno     Who's going to take responsibility for this? [08:26] Kaoru     You guys were so excited earlier. [08:28] Maki     I knew it sounded too good to be true. [08:31] Kanbara     It only cost 10,000 yen. Just give it up. [08:33] Okada     No way. I paid an entire     10,000 yen for this. [08:35] Horita     In this day and age, living without a shower,     refrigerator, or TV is a valuable experience. [08:40] Jinko     Are you crying? [08:41] Maki     Now that I get a closer look, this place     does have a certain rare charm to it. [08:45] Chihiro     Exactly. As long as we're here,     let's enjoy ourselves to the fullest extent. [08:50] Chihiro     By the way, you minors will be     drinking Pepchi and castor oil. [08:54] Chihiro     We follow the broadcast code on this show. SIGN    Self-censored [09:04] Mitsugu     Anyway, why are we the only guests here     when you've got that marvelous beach? [09:10] Old Woman     There's a lot of reasons for that. [09:15] Old Woman     Anyway, I'll let you know     once dinner is ready. [09:23] Old Woman     My tongue! [09:27] Sign     Charging [09:34] Chihiro     Anyway... [09:36] Maki     Nami's still not here. [09:38] Kaoru     I doubt Nami of all people drowned. [09:42] Kanbara     We didn't see anyone on the beach. [09:45] Jinko     But we did find this. [09:50] Okada     She went skinny dipping in the sea at night? [09:52] Kaoru     It's the sea at night that     makes skinny dipping possible. [09:54] Horita     So bold. [09:56] Katsuno     Let's go look for her. [09:59] Jinko     It's obvious what your ulterior motive is! [10:01] Chihiro     This might be a serious situation. [10:05] Chihiro     She may be a fisherman's daughter, [10:06] Chihiro     but it's hard to imagine Nami     would do something so dangerous. [10:10] Mitsugu     Did a shark get her? [10:11] Maki     Jaws? No, Jason? [10:16] Old Woman     Could it be?! [10:21] Mitsugu     Please don't suddenly show up like that! [10:25] Old Woman     I hate to think that's what happened, but... [10:27] Chihiro     Ma'am, is there something on that beach? [10:31] Old Woman     He shows up once every     decade during hot summers. [10:35] Old Woman     It could be him. [10:38] Maki     Could it be? [10:39] Kaoru     The Predator. [10:41] Chihiro     Stop making jokes that     will get us in trouble. [10:45] Old Woman     It happened about 500 years ago. [10:50] Old Woman     In an impoverished fishing     village on the island, [10:54] Old Woman     there was an astonishingly beautiful girl. [11:03] Old Woman     She refused to listen to any of the     numerous marriage proposals made to her. [11:08] Old Woman     Day after day, she dove into     the sea to support her family. [11:14] Old Woman     And one day, at the bottom of the sea... [11:19] Old Woman     ...something grabbed her! [11:22] Katsuno     Grabbed her? She was eaten? [11:25] Old Woman     Grabbed... [11:27] Old Woman     ...her heart! Falling in love! [11:33] Old Woman     He was a strapping young man, but he was     neither a villager nor a fisherman. [11:40] Old Woman     Not only that, but... [11:42] Old Woman     ...he wasn't even human! [11:47] Katsuno     Could we stop with the sudden close-ups? [11:50] Chihiro     Ma'am, please continue. [11:53] Old Woman     They spent what little time they had     together while the girl's breath lasted, [11:58] Old Woman     but alas, she was only human. [12:01] Old Woman     On top of that, the seaweed wrapped around     them blocked the young man from view. [12:06] Old Woman     Overcome with grief,     the girl said the following. [12:09] Old Woman     "Meet me on the beach at night.     I want to get a good look at you." [12:15] Old Woman     "Won't you please come see me?" [12:20] Old Woman     The creature that came to meet the     girl waiting on the deserted beach [12:27] Old Woman     was horrifying in appearance. SIGN    He Was a Fishman [12:44] Old Woman     Since then, on hot summer nights, [12:48] Old Woman     a horrifying fishman appears     to kidnap beautiful girls [12:52] Old Woman     and drag them to the bottom of the sea. [12:55] Mitsugu     Hot summers? When's the     last time he appeared? [13:00] Old Woman     It was hot last year, as well. [13:02] Old Woman     And the year before that,     and the year before that. [13:05] Kaoru     That's every year. [13:06] Old Woman     Indeed. He comes every year. [13:08] Mitsugu     Didn't you say earlier that     he comes once every decade? [13:11] Old Woman     I'm old. I'm not very good     with numbers anymore. [13:14] Kanbara     Come on, you're not Daijiro Morohoshi. [13:16] Horita     And this isn't a Hollywood     B-movie horror film. [13:19] Maki     What are you talking about,     bunnies with bright red eyes? [13:22] Maki     Creature from the Black Lagoon is a masterpiece. [13:25] Maki     Its sequel Revenge of the Creature aside, [13:28] Maki     the underwater scenes and creature     costume are incredible. [13:32] Okata     She's doing it again. [13:33] Kaoru     The fishmen in The Terror Beneath     the Sea were good, too. [13:36] Maki     You can't discuss The Terror Beneath the Sea [13:39] Maki     without mentioning blonde     tokusatsu actress Peggy Neal. [13:42] Horita     We've gone from fishmen to blondes. [13:44] Kanbara     Someone stop her. [13:44] Okada     Just leave her be. [13:45] Maki     Oh, Miss Peggy Neal. [13:47] Maki     You were beautiful in     The X from Outer Space, as well. [13:51] Maki     By the way, director Hajime Sato [13:53] Maki     also produced the masterpiece     Goke, Body Snatcher from Hell. [13:55] Chihiro     Body snatcher, huh? [13:57] Chihiro     Then perhaps it wouldn't be so strange     if Nami were kidnapped by a fishman. [14:02] Mitsugu     What do you mean? [14:03] Chihiro     Think about it. [14:05] Chihiro     We're already involved     with a vampire named Mai. [14:09] Chihiro     This is fate. [14:11] Chihiro     Perhaps these two non-human creatures     seek to meet each other. [14:14] Chihiro     What is this if not fate? [14:17] Mitsugu     That's ridiculous. [14:18] Chihiro     Call it whatever you want. [14:20] Chihiro     This story has been     ridiculous from the start. [14:23] Jinko     Regardless of the reason,     we need to save Nami. [14:26] Okata     She's got a foul mouth,     but she's still beautiful. [14:29] Horita     And she's definitely a woman. [14:31] Kanbara     We'll have to recapture her. [14:34] Katsuno     It's the only thing to do. [14:36] All     Yeah! [14:43] Kaoru     Fishman, fishman, fishman! [14:49] Maki     This 4K camera is impressive. [14:52] Maki     The image remains smooth even     while using the digital zoom. [14:54] Chihiro     Anyway, he still hasn't shown up. [14:57] Kanbara     Maybe our bait isn't attractive enough. [14:59] Okada     Fishmen love beautiful women. [15:02] Horita     Which means a fishman wouldn't     kidnap another fishman. [15:05] Chihiro     We'll have to use... [15:07] Maki     Unfortunately, I'm obligated     to document this event. [15:11] Horita     Nobody asked you. [15:12] Katsuno     I doubt the fishman would get turned     on by Jinko in her school swimsuit. [15:16] Chihiro     I may be beautiful,     but I'm not a young girl. [15:19] Maki     In Hollywood movies, they like blondes. [15:22] Chihiro     Which means... [15:26] Mitsugu     No! Absolutely not Mai! [15:29] Mai     Not a problem. No problemo. [15:32] Mitsugu     Mai. [15:33] Mai     This is for Nami. [15:35] Mai     And besides, the fishman is half human. [15:39] Mai     A vampire and a fishman. [15:41] Mai     If we speak to each other     as humanoid minorities, [15:44] Mai     I'm sure we can come to an understanding. [15:46] Mitsugu     That doesn't make any sense. [15:47] Chihiro     Well spoken. Come on, let's do     this before she changes her mind. [15:52] All     Yeah! [16:02] Kanbara     Good! So good! [16:04] Okada     It's too much! [16:05] Horita     My nose won't stop bleeding! [16:06] Katsuno     Looks like I'm needed. [16:09] Katsuno     I, Perseus Katsuno, shall protect Mai. [16:13] Kaoru     Mai's Andromeda is captivating,     but her cosplay isn't revealing enough. [16:17] Chihiro     We had to self-censor ourselves     due to rating issues. [16:22] Mitsugu     How can you guys be this     laid-back during an emergency? [16:26] Chihiro     He's coming. [16:26] Mitsugu     What? He's already here? [16:30] Kanbara     He came immediately. [16:31] Okada     He's on his way. [16:32] Horita     He came in the blink of an eye. [16:35] Mitsugu     As expected, he couldn't     resist Mai's charms. [16:38] Chihiro     Fishmen are so easy to read. [16:41] Kaoru     This kind of stings. [16:43] Mitsugu     Huh? [16:50] Kanbara     It's not that he's not scary-looking. [16:53] Horita     He just looks stupid, too. [16:55] Kaoru     And creepy. [16:56] Chihiro     Well, he certainly is half-man. [16:59] Jinko     This is awful. [17:00] Maki     Regardless, he's definitely a monster. [17:03] Katsuno     Out of the way! [17:05] Katsuno     I'll kill you, you fish bastard! [17:21] Kaoru     I knew that would happen. [17:23] Chihiro     It didn't work. [17:30] Mitsugu     Mai is in danger! [17:31] Kanbara     Wait. If the captain can't beat him,     there's no way an ordinary human can. [17:35] Horita     We'll have to unleash Franken! [17:37] Horita     But he's still charging! [17:44] Kaoru     He's 80% charged. [17:46] Mitsugu     This is an emergency. [17:48] Mitsugu     Franken, activate! [17:50] Mitsugu     Save Mai! [17:51] Maki     If he's not fully charged,     he might start decomposing. [17:55] Maki     And that would be a really rotten time. [18:05] Franken     Mai! [18:07] Sign     Franken 88     AV Plus/Hulk Mode [18:09] Kanbara     Go, Franken! [18:11] Okada     Kill him!
