SIGN    I never thought
SIGN    that I would encounter an XX-jellyfish (sic)
SIGN    in this place
[02:08] Mitsugu
    I just happened to come
    to this beach to swim.
[02:12] Mitsugu
    and was stung on the left
    arm by a jellyfish.
[02:16] Mitsugu
    I need to find a doctor as soon as possible.
[02:21] Mitsugu
    My precious blood.
[02:24] Mitsugu
    The blood I should be feeding
    Mai is flowing out of me...
SIGN    Capital Under Martial Law
[03:00] Mitsugu
    Excuse me for asking, but...
[03:02] Kanbara
    Ask us anything.
[03:04] Okada
    After all, we're public servants.
[03:06] Horita
    We're obligated to answer
    the taxpayers' questions.
[03:11] Kanbara
    By the way, this armored fighting
    vehicle you're looking at...
[03:15] Okada
    ...is the Type 16 mobile combat
    vehicle used by the Mobile Division,
[03:19] Okada
    also known as the Mobile Brigade
    of the Rapid Deployment Regiment,
[03:24] Okada
    as well as by the Reconnaissance Combat
    Battalions of Local Deployment Divisions.
[03:26] Mitsugu
    Actually—
[03:28] Kanbara
    Developed in 2007 to replace
    tanks on some missions and reduce
[03:34] Kanbara
    the number of tanks in service, as
    well as improve redeployment speed,
[03:37] Kanbara
    it officially entered service in 2016.
[03:41] Okada
    Utilizing an independent suspension
    system with four wheels
[03:44] Okada
    on each side for a total of eight wheels,
[03:46] Okada
    it comes equipped with a
    Japanese-made 105 mm L/52 gun
[03:49] Okada
    and 7.62 mm machine gun on
    a fully rotating turret.
[03:55] Okada
    Its firepower is equal to or even
    greater than the Type 74's.
[04:00] Mitsugu
    That's not what I—
[04:02] Horita
    The Type 16 mobile combat vehicle
    overcomes the low accuracy and recoil
[04:07] Horita
    of conventional wheeled tanks with
    its advanced fire-control system
[04:12] Horita
    and vibration control technology.
[04:15] Horita
    Its accuracy is high even
    when firing on the move.
[04:20] Mitsugu
    I'm not asking about that.
[04:22] Mitsugu
    Is there a doctor around here?
[04:24] Kanbara
    I see.
[04:25] Okada
    In other words, you mean...
[04:27] Horita
    You're looking for a doctor.
[04:30] Mitsugu
    If you guys have any love at all
    for Mai, then take me to a doctor.
[04:38] Kanbara
    I see.
[04:39] Okada
    I'm finally beginning to understand
    what you're trying to say.
[04:42] Horita
    In other words, this is
    what you're asking us.
SIGN    Where can I find a doctor?!
[04:51] Mitsugu
    Enough with the mean-spirited jokes!
[04:54] Mitsugu
    You'd point your guns against
    your own blood sister?
[04:58] Mitsugu
    I could die here!
[05:04] Mitsugu
    My precious blood is flowing out of my body.
[05:09] Mitsugu
    Someone. Anyone.
[05:11] Mitsugu
    Somebody tell me!
SIGN    Where can I find a doctor?!
[05:17] Mitsugu
    I know. If I go to a school,
    there might be a doctor there.
[05:22] Mitsugu
    That's it.
[05:34] Mitsugu
    Anyway, these railroad tracks
    sure are difficult to walk on.
[05:40] Mitsugu
    I'm beginning to feel impatient.
[05:46] Mitsugu
    The flies. The flies...
[05:52] Mitsugu
    The flies rub their hands and feet.
[05:58] Mitsugu
    Strike not the fly that rubs its hands
[06:06] Mitsugu
    and feet together.
[06:28] Mitsugu
    This train arrived at just the right time,
[06:32] Mitsugu
    but isn't it heading back towards
    the direction I came from?
[06:38] Kaoru
    Try sitting on the other side.
[06:41] Kaoru
    Then you'll feel like you're traveling
    in the opposite direction.
[06:46] Mitsugu
    Now that you mention it, you're right.
[06:49] Kaoru
    You don't even have to go to school
    to learn about that principle.
[06:52] Kaoru
    Everybody knows that.
[06:54] Mitsugu
    That's right.
[06:56] Mitsugu
    I need to remain pragmatic.
[06:59] Mitsugu
    Despite being an otaku, you saved my life.
[07:02] Kaoru
    What do you mean, "despite?"
[07:16] Mitsugu
    This is the street corner where I started.
SIGN    Capital Under Martial Law
[07:25] Mitsugu
    I've wasted so much time.
[07:30] Mitsugu
    All right. In that case,
    I'll thoroughly search the entire town.
[07:36] Mitsugu
    No, in this case,
[07:38] Mitsugu
    it's more grammatically correct to say I'll
    "through-lilly" search the entire town.
[07:51] Mitsugu
    Damn it! This neighborhood
    is nothing but urologists!
[07:54] Mitsugu
    I'm not an old man with
    an enlarged prostate!
[08:00] Mitsugu
    Anyway, this place is as
    quiet as a ghost town.
SIGN    Blended Bath
[08:12] Mitsugu
    What's this?
[08:13] Mitsugu
    That's a sign for a public bath.
[08:17] Mitsugu
    That's odd, though.
[08:21] Mitsugu
    I feel like I've always known
    about this public bath.
[08:25] Mitsugu
    It feels so familiar.
[08:30] Mitsugu
    That candy shop, too.
[08:33] ---
    Hallelujah
SIGN    Tobacco
[08:40] Mitsugu
    How nostalgic.
[08:42] Mitsugu
    They're playing a game of menko.
[08:44] Mitsugu
    But my generation shouldn't
    know about that game.
[08:50] Mitsugu
    You kids.
[08:51] Mitsugu
    You seem to be playing Proletariat Detectives
[08:54] Mitsugu
    versus Petite Bourgeoisie with Twenty Faces menko.
[08:57] Kanbara
    So, what?
[08:58] Okada
    You can't have our menko cards.
[09:00] Horita
    If you want some,
    you'll have to buy them yourself.
[09:02] Mitsugu
    Perhaps I'll purchase that mask, then.
[09:06] Kanbara
    Anyway, you...
[09:08] Okada
    ...look just like the old lady
    attendant at the blended bath.
[09:11] Horita
    You're practically identical.
[09:13] Mitsugu
    Do we look that similar?
[09:15] Mitsugu
    Wait, I'm a high school girl!
[09:18] Kanbara
    Not just similar.
[09:20] Okada
    When that old woman first
    arrived in this town...
[09:23] Horita
    She wanted menko cards, too, just like you.
[09:26] Mitsugu
    How did she end up becoming
    an attendant at the bath?
[09:33] Mitsugu
    When did that happen?
[09:38] Mitsugu
    Like me, she wandered into town,
[09:43] Mitsugu
    and bought a bunch of masks and menko cards.
[09:46] Mitsugu
    Then she said she wanted to take a bath,
    so she was taken to the blended bath.
SIGN    Blended Bath
[10:00] Nami
    The water's gotten worse recently.
[10:03] Kaoru
    Your skin's starting to show its age.
[10:05] Maki
    What about your flat chest?
[10:07] Jinko
    You should get that looked at soon.
[10:09] Nami
    Maybe I'll visit a urologist.
[10:11] Maki
    What are you talking about?
[10:12] Jinko
    The new urologist that opened up on 3-chome.
[10:15] Maki
    Ah, the one with the macho
    and handsome director.
[10:18] Nami
    Looking at him every day
    has anti-aging effects.
[10:20] Kaoru
    Really?
[10:21] Maki
    No, obviously not.
[10:23] Jinko
    Quick and efficient Takatsu Clinic.
[10:26] Nami
    They don't accept insurance.
[10:27] Maki
    And it hurts.
[10:28] Kaoru
    And it's expensive.
[10:29] Nami
    Speaking of expensive,
    there's that designer apartment complex.
[10:32] Maki
    What are you talking about?
[10:33] Jinko
    That new rental property on 4-chome.
[10:37] Maki
    You mean that pointlessly green
    building shaped like a toilet seat?
[10:40] Nami
    Looking at it every day makes me feel
    like a socialite with a hot body.
[10:42] Kaoru
    Really?
[10:44] Maki
    No, obviously not.
[10:46] Nami
    Nothing's better than a bath
    and a lymphatic massage.
[10:49] Jinko
    Quick and efficient hormone therapy.
[10:51] Maki
    It doesn't hurt.
[10:52] Nami
    And it's free.
SIGN    Women's Bath
SIGN    Men's Bath
[10:58] Mitsugu
    Until that old woman who looks like me
    sat in the attendant's seat at the bath,
[11:06] Mitsugu
    nobody sat in that seat.
[11:09] Mitsugu
    Apparently customers visiting the baths
    would sit in the attendant's seat.
[11:15] Kanbara
    Truly.
[11:17] Okada
    This is, without a doubt...
[11:18] Horita
    Paradise.
[11:20] Mitsugu
    They're right.
[11:21] Mitsugu
    But why am I alone allowed to
    enjoy this meaningless paradise?
[11:26] Kanbara
    It's probably your past life.
[11:29] Mitsugu
    What are you talking about?
[11:31] Okada
    It's karma.
[11:32] Horita
    Your fate from a past life.
[11:34] Mitsugu
    You guys...
[11:36] Mitsugu
    Do you guys actually...
[11:39] Mitsugu
    Do you guys actually believe in past lives?
[11:43] Kanbara
    If we didn't have past lives...
[11:45] Okada
    ...then we...
[11:46] Horita
    ...wouldn't be alive.
[11:48] Mitsugu
    Why? Why wouldn't you be alive?
[11:52] Kanbara
    Because if we didn't have past lives...
[11:54] Horita
    ...then we would be like...
[11:56] Mitsugu
    Like what?
[11:59] Horita
    Bathwater.
SIGN    Are you a ghost?!
[12:05] Mitsugu
    So, what happened to the attendant
    who looks like me after that?
[12:10] Kanbara
    Nothing, really.
[12:12] Horita
    She actually still sits...
[12:13] Horita
    In the attendant's seat at the bath.
[12:16] Kanbara
    She really does look like you, though.
[12:18] Okada
    Even your voices are the same.
[12:19] Horita
    You probably have similar
    personalities, too.
[12:21] Mitsugu
    Then I'll just have to enter the bath, too.
[12:24] Kanbara
    What did you say?
[12:25] Okada
    You can't do that!
[12:27] Horita
    If you do that, something
    terrible will happen!
[12:30] Mitsugu
    What do you mean, "terrible"?
[12:36] Kanbara
    Get Katsuno!
[12:38] Okada
    Someone get Katsuno!
[12:40] Horita
    Get Katsuno!
[12:41] Mitsugu
    Don't bring that gorilla here!
[12:45] Kanbara
    Didn't you need a doctor?
[12:46] Okada
    A doctor!
[12:47] Horita
    Weren't you looking for a doctor?
[12:50] Mitsugu
    That doesn't matter anymore!
[12:52] Mitsugu
    I'm going to sit in the attendant's
    seat for no reason at all!
[12:57] Kanbara
    If you...
[12:59] Okada
    If you sit there...
[13:00] Horita
    If you sit in the attendant's seat
    for no reason at all, then...
[13:41] Jinko
    Why are you acting like that?!
[13:52] Sign
    Makkiriya
[13:56] Mai
    Miss, come have a drink.
[14:06] Mai
    Despite being penniless, you were
    looking around for a doctor?
[14:11] Mai
    How truly astonishing.
[14:13] Mitsugu
    It's true that I'm looking for a doctor,
    but I promise I'm not messing around.
[14:20] Mitsugu
    If anything, having a drink at this place
    and sulking in bed would be far easier.
[14:27] Mitsugu
    Mai, do you work as a hostess here?
[14:29] Mai
    I was sold here from Transylvania.
[14:34] Mai
    I'm the unhappiest girl in the world.
[14:37] Mitsugu
    So, tell me about your
    parents who sold you off.
[14:41] Mai
    My father comes from an
    unaccomplished family.
[14:44] Mitsugu
    Is he that man taking a bath over there?
[14:50] Mai
    My unaccomplished father won't listen to me.
[14:54] Mitsugu
    Is he really that unreasonable?
[14:57] Mai
    He refuses to hear what I have to say.
[14:59] Mitsugu
    And what about the master of
    this house who bought you?
[15:03] Mai
    The woman who bought me comes
    from an unaccomplished family.
[15:08] Mitsugu
    I have no idea what's going on.
[15:10] Mitsugu
    Sounds like a rather
    complicated relationship.
[15:14] Mai
    Thank you for waiting.
[15:24] Mitsugu
    You seem quite accustomed to working here.
[15:27] Mitsugu
    What kind of name is Mai?
[15:29] Mai
    I told you, my name is
    Mai Vlad Transylvania.
[15:33] Mitsugu
    In that case, Mai Vlad Transylvania-san,
    would you like a drink?
[15:38] Mai
    Hey, ma. Wanna drink?
[15:41] Mitsugu
    That's an obscure reference.
[15:44] Mai
    What I desire starts with the letter B.
[15:47] Mitsugu
    Is that a riddle?
[15:49] Mitsugu
    Starts with the letter B? Is it biscuit?
[15:52] Mai
    I'm tired of eating biscuits.
[15:54] Mitsugu
    Bner? No, it couldn't be that.
[15:57] Mitsugu
    I can't believe I said that!
[16:00] Mitsugu
    This drink seems to turn
    me into an indecent drunk.
[16:04] Mai
    It's castor oil and water.
[16:07] Mitsugu
    I see. There's no underage
    drinking happening here.
SIGN    Self-censored
[16:15] Mai
    What I desire is blood.
[16:18] Mitsugu
    Mai, is blood all you think about?
[16:22] Mitsugu
    For example, do you think
    nothing of your circumstances?
[16:26] Mai
    They are miserable.
[16:27] Mitsugu
    You hardly seem miserable to me.
[16:32] Mai
    I can't help that.
[16:33] Mitsugu
    Don't you have anything more nuanced to say?
[16:38] Mai
    Are you drunk on castor oil?
[16:41] Mai
    I shall take good care of you.
[16:43] Mitsugu
    That's all right. It seems my
    behavior was a bit abrupt.
[16:47] Mitsugu
    Rather, I get the feeling that I shouldn't
    be sitting around here drinking.
[16:52] Mitsugu
    Like I have something
    more important to do...
SIGN    Blade Steak
[16:57] Katsuno
    So you finally remembered.
[16:59] Mitsugu
    Huh? Well, if it isn't Katsuno.
[17:01] Katsuno
    Don't give me that crap!
[17:03] Mitsugu
    Am I wrong?
[17:04] Mai
    He's Katsuno of Shinden.
[17:06] Mai
    Katsuno of Shinden?
[17:08] Mai
    What does Katsuno of Shinden do?
[17:10] Mai
    He's a delinquent of the
    night school's class 2-B.
[17:13] Mai
    A villainous and horrible man.
[17:16] Mai
    Every day he comes to torment me.
[17:19] Mai
    And when he doesn't, I'm made to stand here.
[17:22] Katusno
    You two have found some nerve
    recently, haven't you?
[17:25] Mai
    I wouldn't know.
[17:26] Mai
    Keep speaking to me like that,
    and I'll tell Doctor Chihiro about it.
[17:31] Katsuno
    You're from Tokyo, aren't you?
[17:34] Mitsugi
    Probably, I think.
[17:37] Katsuno
    Probably?
[17:39] Mitsugu
    Apparently, it's still unclear
    where this series is set.
[17:42] Mitsugu
    Mai-chan, how much do I owe you?
[17:45] Mai
    A mere five yen.
[17:47] Mitsugu
    Really? After all I drank and ate?
[17:51] Mitsguu
    That's super cheap. Lucky me.
[17:55] Katsuno
    That can't be possible!
[18:03] Mitsugu
    A flower.
[18:05] Mitsugu
    It's a flower. A red flower.
[18:09] Right
    Gyoza General

    OB-GYN
[18:12] Old Woman
    So, what kind of doctor are you looking for?
[18:17] Mitsugu
    One who accepts insurance.
[18:19] Mitsugu
    If possible, it's definitely necessary
    that I find a female doctor.
[18:22] Old Woman
    Then you should visit the
    doctor in my building.
[18:26] Mitsugu
    Ma'am, you made quite a bit
    of money for yourself.
[18:30] Mitsugu
    This building was constructed off of your
    patented pot sticker making technique, wasn't it?
[18:35] Mitsugu
    It was certainly innovative to mix garlic
    into the skins of the gyoza itself.
[18:41] Mitsugu
    However, my mother came up with the
    idea before she left our home.
[18:48] Old Woman
    Uh, oh.
[18:50] Mitsugu
    Could it be that you're my mother?
[18:55] Mitsugu
    That's who you are, isn't it?
[18:58] Mitsugu
    You're my mother from before I was born.
[19:01] Old Woman
    There's a reason for this.
[19:06] Mitsugu
    What reason? Tell me.
[19:10] Old Woman
    To do that, I must explain how the skins
    of my special gyoza are made.
[19:16] Old Woman
    But that would surely bore the audience.
[19:23] Mitsugu
    I see. In that case, I
    can't ask you about that.
[19:35] Mitsugu
    Doctor Chihiro, please
    perform surgery on me!
[19:39] Chihiro
    Private or public, you don't belong here.
[19:44] Chihiro
    I'm a insurance doctor who
    specializes in blood.
[19:47] Mistugu
    Please! This is no time to
    argue about the details!
[19:51] Mitsugu
    I might die of blood loss.
[19:55] Mitsugu
    My precious blood...
[19:57] Mitsugu
    Mai's blood!
[20:00] Chihiro
    Fine, then. Perhaps I'll
    play doctor with you.
[20:04] Mitsugu
    What? Are you sure?
[20:07] Mitsugu
    But I'm a girl.
[20:09] Chihiro
    Fool! Of course not!
SIGN    SLAP SLAP SLAP
[20:24] Mitsugu
    Doctor, you must be out of your mind!
[20:29] Chihiro
    Shut up! Hold still!
SIGN    Self-censored
[20:40] Chihiro
    Looks like the surgery was successful.
[20:43] Chihiro
    Listen closely. You mustn't
    tighten that bolt.
[20:47] Chihiro
    It'll stop the flow of your blood.
[20:50] Mitsugu
    Doctor Chihiro, I didn't know
    you could perform surgery, too.
[20:53] Chihiro
    I simply utilized the bolt style.
[20:56] Chihiro
    The world has progressed quite a bit.
[21:04] Mitsugu
    And so, we were able to prevent my precious*
    blood from spilling pointlessly.
[21:15] Mitsugu
    All my blood exists to be given to Mai.
[21:22] Mitsugu
    As long as I have this bolt, every last
    drop of my blood belongs to Mai.
[21:32] Mitsugu
    However, tightening this bolt
    causes my left arm to go numb.
[21:40] Mitsugu
    But don't read into it too deeply.
[21:44] Mitsugu
    There's no deeper or secret meaning
    behind it being my left arm.
