[00:16] ---
The Neighbors, the invaders from
another dimension, and...
[00:18] ---
Border Defense Agency, namely Border, keep
having a fierce battle in Mikado City.
[00:23] ---
The B-Rank Wars schedule for February
The schedule has been changed from ROUND 4
[00:23] ---
In front of Osamu Mikumo and Yuma Kuga,
agents at Border Tamakoma Branch,
[00:27] ---
who are scheduled for a B-Rank War
in several days,
[00:30] ---
Enedora from Aftokrator, who died
in the recent large-scale invasion,
[00:34] ---
showed himself
in a vastly different form.
[00:37] ---
I'll infuse Trion.
[00:46] ---
Oh?! You finally came?
[00:49] ---
You're late, Meeden monkeys!
[00:54] ---
You gotta appreciate that I'm saying
that I'll tell you anything.
[00:58] ---
Hey, are you listening?
[01:01] ---
Okay, okay, hold on a sec.
[01:03] ---
Is that...
[01:05] ---
That's how the Black Trigger user who
rampaged through HQ ended up.
[01:09] ---
The Black Trigger user from Aftokrator...
[01:14] ---
No.1 Shooter, Masataka Ninomiya
[01:19] ---
The Black Trigger died because of
their internal conflict, didn't he?
[01:23] ---
The real him is dead already.
[01:26] ---
That's a Rad that we planted his horns on.
[01:29] ---
Horns?
[01:30] ---
Hey, play that.
[01:35] ---
Haven't you noticed?
That color of your eye...
[01:39] ---
It shows the Trigger Horn has become
deeply-rooted in your brain.
[01:42] ---
You don't have that much time to live now.
[01:46] ---
The effect on your brain is
manifesting in your personality.
[01:49] ---
Abusive remarks, dogmatism,
violation of orders...
[01:52] ---
And more than anything,
[01:53] ---
getting defeated by regular Triggers while
using Borboros shows a serious problem.
[01:58] ---
Borboros will be taken over
by someone more adequate.
[02:02] ---
We'll find the right person in no time
using the data we got from your horns.
[02:05] ---
So it seems like their horns...
[02:08] ---
function to collect biologic data
from those who have them implanted.
[02:14] ---
In addition, his horns had merged with
his brain partially.
[02:19] ---
That's maybe the reason his character
and memories have been backed up.
[02:24] ---
His character has been backed up?
[02:27] ---
Is that possible?
[02:30] ---
Well, Kuga can move with a Trion body
even though his living body is dying
[02:35] ---
and there are Trion soldiers like Replica
who have their own will.
[02:39] ---
Is it that sort of thing?
[02:42] ---
I see. Because you have this one,
you let go of Hyuse so easily.
[02:47] ---
And? Does he seem like he'll tell us
more information than Hyuse?
[02:50] ---
That's the problem.
[02:53] ---
He's strangely cooperative
with our questioning.
[02:57] ---
Very fishy.
[03:00] ---
That's why we need you.
[03:03] ---
Try to detect whether the information
he gives us is true or false and tell us.
[03:08] ---
I don't know how accurate your Side Effect
of detecting lies is though.
[03:14] ---
I at least detected that you weren't
willing to really torture him earlier.
[03:20] ---
I see. I guess your ability is
as good as they say.
[03:25] ---
Okay, I understand my job.
[03:28] ---
Let's do it.
[03:31] ---
Neighbor, I want you to answer
my questions again.
[03:36] ---
Don't make up silly lies. Or, we'll suck
up your Trion and dump you into a river.
[03:40] ---
You're annoying! Just start already!
[03:43] ---
First, about your purpose.
[03:46] ---
What was the purpose of
the recent invasion?
[03:49] ---
Why did you want to collect
people with high Trion ability?
[03:52] ---
To use them as our soldiers, of course.
[03:57] ---
I know you often get invaded by Trion
soldiers from other countries than ours.
[04:00] ---
Tell me something we don't know!
What I'm asking you is...
[04:05] ---
why did you launch the big away mission
bringing over...
[04:09] ---
even Black Triggers at this time?
[04:11] ---
What was the reason that you needed to
capture people with Trion so badly...
[04:16] ---
that you even sent out those
powerful agents? That's what I'm asking.
[04:24] ---
Because the god of Aftokrator
will die soon.
[04:30] ---
God?!
[04:31] ---
You know that the countries in our world
are on individual planets, right?
[04:37] ---
The planets that are floating around
in the night sea.
[04:41] ---
Those planets are made out of Trigger.
[04:44] ---
They're gigantic Triggers often referred
to as Mother Trigger or Queen Trigger.
[04:49] ---
Planets themselves are Triggers?
[04:52] ---
The god is one who is thrown into
the gigantic Trigger as a sacrifice
[04:56] ---
and looks after the planet until they die.
[05:01] ---
They assimilate with the Trigger and
live to take care of the planet...
[05:05] ---
for several centuries until they die.
[05:08] ---
When the god dies, the planet dies, too.
[05:11] ---
There will be no wind, no rain,
and dawn will never break.
[05:17] ---
That's how Aftokrator will be
in several years.
[05:22] ---
That's why they're going on away missions
here and there to find the next god.
[05:28] ---
Are they gonna use our agents that
they kidnapped as such a sacrifice thing?
[05:34] ---
It's not so easy to meet the standard.
[05:39] ---
If the god's Trion is mediocre,
the planet will shrink.
[05:44] ---
If that happens, they'll have no space to
house their current small fry citizens.
[05:49] ---
We've been called by that hideous name
"the Holy land" because...
[05:52] ---
we've been building up...
[05:54] ---
our national strength consistently
by selecting our god carefully.
[05:58] ---
Some crappy weaklings can't
meet the role.
[06:02] ---
Oh yeah, there was one baby bird
who had the potential to become the god.
[06:07] ---
What happened to her?
Did she get captured?
[06:10] ---
Cut it out, Neighbor!
We ask the questions!
[06:15] ---
If people with Trion were your targets,
[06:18] ---
why did you invade the base
and kill ordinary people?
[06:23] ---
My job was to unsettle you.
[06:26] ---
I was told to get into your fort
and kill Meeden's small fries.
[06:31] ---
That was my valiant commander's order
so I had no choice.
[06:34] ---
That's a lie.
[06:36] ---
Stop talking gibberish.
[06:38] ---
We've already gotten so much information
from the other prisoner.
[06:43] ---
We're just double-checking it now.
Be careful with what you say.
[06:49] ---
Huh? You have a prisoner other than me?
[06:53] ---
Oh, you mean Hyuse. Ha!
That serves him right!
[06:56] ---
That small fry got left behind.
[07:00] ---
But don't lie to me, old man.
[07:03] ---
That loser won't betray his country
and spit anything out.
[07:07] ---
He won't spill the beans
even if it means death.
[07:11] ---
Oh, he knows him so well.
[07:13] ---
But I'm not like Hyuse.
I'll tell you what I know.
[07:18] ---
If you wanna get the
kidnapped small fries back,
[07:21] ---
I can even show you the way to Aftokrator.
[07:26] ---
Only if you guys have the technology to
fly a ship at the very least, of course.
[07:34] ---
He's not telling a lie.
[07:35] ---
You're very generous.
[07:37] ---
You quit being a human
but your personality improved, maybe?
[07:41] ---
Huh?! I'm gonna kill you,
you creepy shrimp!
[07:45] ---
Kikuchihara senpai,
you know that Black Trigger user?
[07:50] ---
I fought him during
the large-scale invasion. Twice.
[07:56] ---
What do you want?
Why do you want to cooperate with us?
[08:00] ---
Do you really have to ask?
[08:03] ---
I want to kill those who betrayed
and kill me!
[08:06] ---
I'd share...
[08:08] ---
my wisdom to you monkeys
to accomplish that.
[08:12] ---
Not all of it, but it's partly a lie.
[08:16] ---
He has some other objective.
[08:19] ---
But it seems like it's true
that he'll side with us.
[08:23] ---
Also, the part about wanting to get back
at his former colleagues who killed him.
[08:27] ---
Humph.
[08:28] ---
I don't like that he has an attitude
although he's just a crab-like monster
[08:32] ---
but I guess he's more useful
than the other prisoner.
[08:35] ---
Do you have any other questions?
[08:38] ---
Aftokrator's Trigger technology,
[08:41] ---
land, society, and military information.
[08:44] ---
What country set off the First Large-Scale
Invasion four and a half years ago?
[08:49] ---
There are many things to ask about.
[08:52] ---
Even though today's interrogation is over,
[08:53] ---
when we have another one,
we need you to be here again.
[08:57] ---
We don't want to get disinformation.
[09:00] ---
All right. I'm often free at night.
[09:07] ---
Anyway, it's good that it seems like
we can get legitimate information.
[09:11] ---
An away mission to Aftokrator will be
in sight sooner than we expected, maybe.
[09:15] ---
They might select an away squad
just after seeing...
[09:18] ---
the first half of this season
at the earliest.
[09:20] ---
Seems like we gotta get as many points
as we can in the next match again.
[09:24] ---
Tokieda senpai and
the people from Suwa Squad.
[09:28] ---
That's what your ace is talking but
do you see any chance of winning?
[09:31] ---
I know.
[09:33] ---
B-Rank isn't so easy that we can keep
winning by relying on Kuga alone.
[09:38] ---
I'm the one who's holding back my team
so I have to become stronger...
[09:42] ---
Become stronger? How?
[09:45] ---
Well... by training myself more...
[09:48] ---
You think you can catch up to the others?
[09:51] ---
How arrogant.
[09:53] ---
I heard Kazama-san will be the commentator
for your next match.
[09:57] ---
Don't disappoint him so much.
[10:01] ---
Oh, thank you for the coffee.
[10:04] ---
Does Mikumo-kun hit it off
with Kikuchihara well?
[10:08] ---
Well, I don't know.
[10:10] ---
That was the first time I saw Kikuchihara
talking to someone one-on-one,
[10:15] ---
outside of Kazama Squad,
in a long time.
[10:17] ---
Both of you, welcome back!
[10:19] ---
Yuma-kun, good work!
[10:21] ---
I got along well with Kinuta-san. I think.
[10:25] ---
There is someone to see you
and Chika-chan.
[10:28] ---
He's waiting for you
in the reception room.
[10:30] ---
See me and Chika?
[10:34] ---
May I come in?
[10:35] ---
Osamu-kun.
[10:41] ---
That's...
[10:52] ---

SIGN Yuma Kuga

Likes: Japanese food
[12:22] ---
That's...
[12:29] ---
I'm Ninomiya from Ninomiya Squad.
[12:31] ---
Don't just stand there.
Sit down, Mikumo.
[12:34] ---
Ninomiya Squad?
[12:35] ---
B-Rank No.1 Ninomiya Squad
B-Rank No.2 Kageura Squad
[12:36] ---
The captain of B-Rank No.1,
Ninomiya Squad. Why is he here?
[12:38] ---
B-Rank No.6 Tamakoma-2
B-Rank No.7 Azuma Squad
[12:44] ---
I'm not gonna stay long.
[12:46] ---
I'll make it brief.
[12:49] ---
Rinji Amatori.
[12:53] ---
You know the name, don't you?
[13:00] ---
That's my... brother.
[13:03] ---
He used to be my tutor.
[13:07] ---
What about him?
[13:09] ---
Have you seen this girl?
[13:12] ---
No. I don't know her.
[13:14] ---
I've never seen her, either.
[13:16] ---
Are you sure?
Take a good look and try to remember.
[13:22] ---
She's a dowdy girl who always
has a fake smile on her face.
[13:27] ---
Who is she?
[13:29] ---
She's a suspect in a major breach of code.
[13:33] ---
She supplied Triggers to some citizens
and then disappeared along with them.
[13:39] ---
The executives concluded that she passed
through the Gate to the other side.
[13:44] ---
Along with citizens?
[13:45] ---
When her Trigger reaction
vanished into the Gate,
[13:49] ---
there were three other Trigger reactions
that followed it.
[13:53] ---
But those three weren't Border agents.
[13:57] ---
There were no agents who went missing
except for her that day.
[14:02] ---
Which means at least three outside
collaborators with Trion went along her.
[14:11] ---
Supplying Triggers to citizens is...
[14:13] ---
the highest level of infraction, which is
even punishable by the memory eraser.
[14:18] ---
HQ sent out Kazama Squad immediately
to chase and catch the offender but...
[14:22] ---
they were already gone by then.
[14:25] ---
I'm trying to find out about
her three collaborators.
[14:29] ---
And Rinji Amatori is one of the suspects.
[14:33] ---
Collaborators...
[14:35] ---
Rinji-san, what's this?
[14:38] ---
A Trigger.
[14:39] ---
It's Border's weapon.
I made a deal with someone and got it.
[14:42] ---
A deal? With who?
Somebody from Border?
[14:49] ---
I'll go check out the other side of
the Neighbor's Gate with them sometime.
[14:54] ---
Actually, we already marked down
some suspected spots.
[14:57] ---
We'll do it next Saturday.
If you set your mind before then, call me.
[15:00] ---
April 28
[15:05] ---
Oh yeah, I remember now.
This man was...
[15:09] ---
there at Chika's house that day
in a black suit.
[15:13] ---
What will you do if you find out
Chika's brother is a collaborator?
[15:17] ---
I won't do anything.
It's too late to catch them.
[15:22] ---
The executives are keeping
this case under wraps, too.
[15:26] ---
They think it'll bring repercussions...
[15:28] ---
if they pursue it carelessly
and let word spread.
[15:30] ---
Then, why are you investigating this case?
[15:33] ---
This girl is Mirai Hatohara,
Ninomiya Squad's sniper.
[15:38] ---
She was my subordinate at that time.
[15:40] ---
HQ is thinking she is the ringleader
but if you ask me,
[15:44] ---
that idiot can't plot something this big.
[15:49] ---
There must be a mastermind
who instigated that idiot.
[15:52] ---
I just wanna know who it is.
[15:56] ---
From what I've heard so far,
I think that collaborator is...
[16:01] ---
I think that would be my brother.
[16:03] ---
Chika!
[16:09] ---
What makes you think so?
[16:12] ---
My brother is capable of
doing something like that.
[16:15] ---
That's not proof.
Tell me something more specific.
[16:19] ---
I heard a little bit about that plan
from Rinji-san.
[16:23] ---
He had Border's Trigger and...
[16:26] ---
he said he'll go check out the other side
of the Gate along with his collaborators.
[16:30] ---
Is there anything to prove it?
[16:32] ---
I don't have any material. But...
[16:35] ---
I vaguely remember the expected
Gate-opening spots that they marked down.
[16:41] ---
One of them should match with
the spot where Hatohara-san disappeared.
[16:44] ---
I see.
[16:45] ---
But I don't think he instigated her.
[16:50] ---
He said he made a deal with
his collaborators.
[16:54] ---
So, um, don't you think Hatohara-san
had her own objective and...
[16:58] ---
they joined up because
they shared a mutual interest?
[17:01] ---
Thank you for the information.
Sorry to bother you.
[17:04] ---
Please wait!
[17:05] ---
Um, how far have you proceeded
in your investigation on...
[17:09] ---
Hatohara-san and the other collaborators?
And on the details of their plan?
[17:14] ---
There's no point in sharing it
with you guys.
[17:16] ---
We're aiming to be part of
the away squads...
[17:19] ---
with the search of Rinji-san
as one of our objectives.
[17:23] ---
We want as much information
leading to him as possible!
[17:26] ---
What could you do with it?
[17:27] ---
What?
[17:29] ---
I watched your match the other day.
[17:32] ---
At your level, you'll never get selected
for the away squads.
[17:38] ---
Why would you want information
that you'd have no use for?
[17:42] ---
You'll go to the other side
like Hatohara did?
[17:46] ---
If you really wanna search for
Rinji Amatori,
[17:50] ---
let this one join some A-Rank team.
[17:53] ---
If you wanna go to the Neighborhood
in a lawful way,
[17:56] ---
that's the most viable option.
[18:00] ---
If we...
[18:02] ---
If we get selected for the away squads,
[18:05] ---
would you tell us
the information you have?
[18:09] ---
Ask me when you get selected.
[18:15] ---
Ninomiya-san was speaking very ill
about his former teammate.
[18:20] ---
I guess getting betrayed bugs him.
[18:22] ---
Ninomiya Squad got demoted as
punishment for Hatohara's action.
[18:28] ---
Did they?
[18:29] ---
Officially, Hatohara got fired for
merely breaking Agent Regulations.
[18:34] ---
Reiji-san, you know so much
about Hatohara-san.
[18:37] ---
She and I both had Azuma-san as a mentor.
So she's my sibling disciple.
[18:42] ---
Other than the executives,
only me, Azuma-san, Ninomiya Squad,
[18:46] ---
and Kazama Squad, which chased them,
know about this case.
[18:50] ---
Don't talk about this elsewhere.
[18:52] ---
If what Hatohara did spreads around,
[18:54] ---
somebody will think of doing
a reckless thing like she did.
[18:57] ---
Okay.
[18:58] ---
But what we heard today is the first lead
we found on my brother's whereabouts.
[19:05] ---
Yeah, things are becoming more likely.
[19:08] ---
All that matters now is
getting selected for the away squads.
[19:12] ---
Whether Ninomiya-san will give us
information or not.
[19:15] ---
You're right.
[19:21] ---
Incoming call
Osamu Mikumo
[19:23] ---
What's up, Osamu?
[19:24] ---
I'm sorry, Karasuma senpai.
[19:26] ---
Um... I called you because
I need to ask you a favor...
[19:29] ---
A favor?
[19:30] ---
Could you teach me how to fight
as a...
[19:34] ---
serious shooter?
[19:36] ---
What? You got tired of basic training?
[19:38] ---
No, it's not like that but...
[19:40] ---
in the latest match,
[19:43] ---
we managed to defeat Nasu Squad and
Suzunari-1 because Kuga scored some points
[19:47] ---
and Suzunari-1 fell for our strategy.
[19:52] ---
If we fight them again,
I don't know if we can beat them again.
[19:55] ---
The same can be said for
Suwa Squad and Arafune Squad.
[19:57] ---
It'll be less likely that our current
strategies will succeed from now on
[20:01] ---
and more importantly,
we'll overload Kuga.
[20:05] ---
I'll collect data and work out plans
as before but...
[20:08] ---
I also wanna become a real fighter
like the others.
[20:12] ---
I'm not making you do basic training
out of spite.
[20:16] ---
It's just that you haven't reached
that phase yet.
[20:19] ---
I can teach you the
practical skills of a shooter.
[20:23] ---
But from my personal experience,
[20:25] ---
shooters who just learn those things
get taken down easily.
[20:30] ---
They'll try to use their newly-acquired
skills and be less cautious and flexible.
[20:36] ---
If you don't have a weapon,
you'll be more careful.
[20:39] ---
You won the previous two matches
because...
[20:42] ---
you focused on controlling the situation
rather than getting into shootouts rashly.
[20:45] ---
That's...
[20:47] ---
true but...
[20:50] ---
All right.
[20:52] ---
I'll just ask some professionals
who I can talk to.
[20:57] ---
Professionals?
[21:00] ---
Yeah, if you wanna learn from someone,
learn from experts in shooting battles.
[21:06] ---
After this, we'll review the Rank Wars!

Review the Rank Wars
B-Rank top teams
[21:11] ---
Seems like the Rank War against
B-Rank top teams will be tough.
[21:14] ---
Yeah, when it comes to top teams,
each squad has an A-Rank-level ace.
[21:19] ---
A-Rank level
[21:20] ---
They're official agents
who even assume defense duty,
[21:22] ---
they have a lot of experience
in actual battles as a team.
[21:25] ---
C-Rank Wars are basically
personal battles.
[21:25] ---
C-Rank Wars
Personal battles
[21:28] ---
Yeah, you have to earn 4,000 points.
[21:28] ---
4,000 points
[21:30] ---
But B-Rank Wars are team battles.
[21:32] ---
Team battles
[21:33] ---
Also, the simulated stages are cityscapes
in preparation for actual battles.
[21:37] ---
So instantly, it's necessary for each team
to have a battle plan or a strategy.
[21:39] ---
Battle plan
Strategy
[21:41] ---
The stage could be hilly
and the weather could be clear or bad.
[21:44] ---
They're really simulating actual battles.
[21:48] ---
In actual battles,
you could be in any kind of condition.
[21:51] ---
You have to think how your enemy would
move all the time or you'll lose so...
[21:55] ---
it's really good training.
[21:57] ---
But we have to move up to B-Rank No.1 or
No.2 quickly and challenge A-Rank.
[21:58] ---
B-Rank
[22:02] ---
Yeah, we have to rise up to A-Rank
and get selected for the away squads.
[22:04] ---
The away squads
[22:06] ---
And we have to look for Chika's brother
and her friend.
[22:09] ---
To accomplish that, let's do our best
in the B-Rank Wars!
[22:12] ---
I'm counting on you, Captain!
[22:14] ---
What's wrong, Captain?
[22:16] ---
Don't call me "Captain" too much.
I suddenly feel the heavy responsibility.
[22:21] ---
What are you saying? Whether we win
or lose is all up to our captain's plan.
[22:26] ---
Whether we get selected for
the away squads or not is...
[22:29] ---
all up to your judgment, too.
[22:34] ---
See you!
[22:36] ---
Osamu and the other members of
Tamakoma-2 start training individually.
[22:39] ---
While they're at it, Yuma encounters
Kageura whose temper seems vicious.
[22:45] ---
