At a farm in Nerima, they're busy shipping carnations for Mother's Day tomorrow.
Family comes first.
That's ridiculous. Real life isn't that simple.
What a lovely day...
Help !
Ma'am, the SNK-98...!
What's wrong, Kyoko ? Kyoko...
SNK-98...
ALL-PURPOSE CULTURAL
CAT GIRL
Looking up at the sky I saw a twinkling shooting star...
...but I couldn't finish making all of my wishes.
I wanna do this, I wanna do that.
My heart is so greedy. Dreams have filled my heart to overflowing.
The coaster carrying my dreams flies through the galaxy.
They're speeding up rapidly and going forever.
Get up, you've got to look for tomorrow while you step on the accelerator.
Today
Get up. I'll make an easy pass through a troubled canal.
Taiyaki = Jelly-filled, fish shaped cake.
Papa and mama are sure calm these days. Nuku-Nuku kind of bored.
Being indestructible isn't so easy. Mishima's people no longer play with me.
Oh, really ? Cool.
See ya.
Bye.
May 9th is Mother's Day.
Send Carnations to your Mom.
Carnations 1,500 Yen (= $ 14)
That's expensive !
How may I help you ? Carnations ?
No, no thanks.
Ridiculous.
Ryunosuke !
Are you going home now ?
Bad girl, eating out on the way home ? I'd better tell dad about it.
Well this is... H...how can I explain...?
Wanna have one, Ryunosuke ?
No thanks. Instead...
Instead ?
Could you tell dad to be nice to mom tomorrow ?
What ?
Just for tomorrow. I just want to invite her over for Mother's Day.
That's a piece of cake, leave it to me.
You sure ?
This is a Mishima mecha.
Ta...
Want to have some Taiyaki ?
Help me, they're trying to kill me !
What're you gonna do ?
No choice. I'll give you half of mine.
Hey...!
This is...
Oh, you're...
Dr. Natsume...
Who are you ?
Sorry, but I've been up for five days straight.
Doctor, I'm Eimi.
You say you're Eimi...
I'm Eimi Yoshikawa.
You mean Professor Yoshikawa's...
Granddaughter.
That's right, Eimi. I knew from the beginning.
The professor was my teacher and was called ``the father of bionics.''
Then, how is the professor ?
He died.
Oh, he died.
DIED ?!
Last year, due to the failure of an experiment.
Grandpa was hired by Mishima Heavy Industries to replace you.
He was developing a bio-robot.
But he couldn't make a stable one like you.
Mishima's people were upset about losing their lab, and...
``You must have known something about the production of android !''
I knew nothing, but they confined, tortured and embarrassed me in every possible way.
Every possible...?
No, it's too embarrassing.
Ryu, go and study in the other room !
How come ?
But finally, I escaped.
No way. Even mom wouldn't have gone that far.
That far, huh ?
After a while, Akiko passed the limit only to become a cold devil...
...and she's been strolling around like hell on earth.
Growing ! The power is growing inside of me.
Don't worry, Eimi. I'll protect you from the evil empress Akiko.
Doctor.
Papa seems different.
He's ``high'' after days of continuous all night work.
Look. It's an electromagnetic restrictor.
This little gadget electromagnetically restricts a captured object.
Thus, no matter what kind of robot attacks you, you'll be alright.
However, I haven't completed it yet.
Yes ?
I'm asking you to protect her. I'll be working on this all night.
Why don't you get some sleep ?
Well, I've gotta do it.
I guess I'd better forget about tomorrow.
I'm sorry, Ryunosuke. I'll talk to papa.
No, it's alright.
Eighteen yen.\C5 (16 cents) \C3It's not even enough for one carnation.
I shouldn't have eaten so much. Ryunosuke will be upset.
...I apologize...
...for saying so many bad things about your mother.
It's alright. I know...
...that she's wrong.
But you like her, right ?
I'm kind of jealous.
How about your father and mother ?
Three years ago they...
In an accident.
Both of them ?
Traditionally, all members of Yoshikawa family have died in explosions.
I'll be...someday...
Nobody lives forever. Not now, not yet.
It'll be OK. Even mom wouldn't go as far as to kill you.
Does your father intend to make another robot ?
Probably not. He has no money, nor any intention of going back to the company.
But, what if they became close to each other again ?
You saw his cheerful face. It can't be...
I'm sorry, I'll buy carnations for you.
No, it'd be a waste.
In return, can you tell me where to find your father's great android NK-1124 ?
Why do you...
YOU CALLED ?!
You couldn't be.
Listen Eimi, if mama finds you standing outside, you'll be in trouble.
I'm sorry.
Say, why don't we go take a bath ?
Right now...!?
Feels great.
Eimi, over here !
Y...your briefs.
There's a bruise on my hip. It's from a whip.
You poor thing. Does it hurt ?
You have such a smooth skin.
I wax regularlly.
And your proportions too.
I want your body.
What do you mean by that ?
I mean, I want to be like you.
No, not there. Don't. No, it tickles...
What are they doing ?
Nuku-Nuku will protect you...
Where is it ? It must be here.
Damn, I can't find it !
Kyusaku !
Is there a stupid girl called Eimi Yoshikawa there...?
There she is.
Why'd that ``cheap old lady'' show up ?!
What the hell are you doing there ?!
I was kidnapped by NK-1124.
Then, stay there, I'll come and get you.
There's no need to !
Oh no !
Did you call me ?
No, I didn't.
Alright.
What are you doing in here ?
I'm just wondering where the bathroom is.
Oh, the bathroom is over there.
Is that so ?
Are you alright ?
I'm fine, I'm fine !
What's that...
You saw it.
That's right. As you can see, I'm a Mishima android.
But, I have a miserable life. This beautiful body has one major defect.
If I keep fighting this body overheats, it becomes uncontrollable and ends up exploding.
``A life of flower is brief, and it is full of grief.'' By Fumiko Hayashi.
But, I want to live. To live longer and do many things.
So NK-1124, I've decided to take over your body.
Yes, the reason why I went to the bath with you was to find your kill-switch.
I'm sorry, Nuku-Nuku. No, NK-1124, I must kill you.
Hey, weren't you listening ?!
Yeah, the bathroom is over there.
No, the story that I'm an android !
No, Eimi, stop teasing me.
You saw the serial number on my hip.
The bruise from the whip, right ?
How could it have been made by a WHIP ?
This is so frustrating...
Why are you upset ?
I wasn't, but I am now !
What are you doing ?
Shut up ! Now, there's nothing more to say !
Take this.
W...wait a sec...
Time out.
Hey, stop ?!
DIE !!
Sorry Eimi, are you alright ? Hey, Eimi !
Dad, look.
What's up, Ryu ?
Oh, the sunrise.
No, there !
See Ryu ? My invention is working perfectly. Hey, Nuku-Nuku, you can take that off now.
B...but, I can't move...
I've got you !
Damn ! One step behind.
What the hell do you think you're doing ?
Hurry, follow Eimi.
I know !
Mom.
Sorry Ryu, but I'm ``super busy'' right now.
What ?
Oh, well. I wonder if they're getting along with each other.
What's this...
Unlike you, I'm foolish enough to do anything that I want until I'm satisfied. Sorry I troubled you.
P.S. You don't have to use the flowers. Eimi.
You'd better tell me where your kill-switch is now.
I don't know.
Oh, really.
Enjoy my electric shock. It'll burn your brain circuits out.
Oh no.
Eimi died ?
Three years ago. In an accident with her parents.
So, what's that ?
It's an android Professor Yoshikawa made to resemble Eimi.
He spent 4 billion Yen of the company's money... \C5(= $ 38 million )
...and it's defective.
Defective ?
That hurts...!
Hey hey hey...!
Ouch...!
That troublesome kid, Eimi...
What are you talkin' about ? We've got a day-off because of her.
We'd better go in tomorrow or Akiko will be upset.
I wish the injuries were a bit more severe.
What the hell you are saying...?!
Are you happy now, Arisa ?
This just in.
Explosions started at Miharadai in Nerima are continuing...
...and have finally reached Toshimaen.
Let's go to Ogawa, reporting from the scene.
Mejiro street, heading to Nerima, is totally blocked due to the explosions.
What?! Explode ?!
Once it's overheated from combat.
I've got to recover it before that happens.
If it explodes in the city, the company will lose credibility.
Oh, such a minor thing....
...I was worried, because you said it had a defect...
And Professor Yoshikawa was a perfectionist.
What do you mean ?
Even Nuku-Nuku has a defect.
Damn, where'd you go ?!
Eimi, won't you stop now ?
Shut up ! Your body is mine !
You.
You still have that thing ? Let me go !
You antique.
I won't lose !
Why aren't you burning out ?
It burned out...?!
Nuku-Nuku, Eimi !
We didn't make it.
Dad, Nuku-Nuku is...
I knew it.
I'll take you with me. We'll blow up together...
See ? It captured the out-of-control body.
By accident.
Damn, I can't lose. I must take over your body.
How could you be inside of me ?
An idiot like me can't think that far ! But I'll defeat you !
How can you be so happy...?
That was so much fun. Will you play with me again ?
You're making a fool of me...
You did that ?
Don't be so happy !
It's ridiculous, I can't deal with this in these busy days.
Sorry Ryu, I still have some business at the office.
Here.
What's this ?
It's... Mother's Day.
Mother's day ?
That's right, it's Mother's Day. Akiko, I'll treat you today.
Is this April 1st ?
Here, get in quick, I'll drive. Ryu, you too.
Alright.
Kyusaku, what's the catch ?
Akiko, please. Well, you could buy that device. It cost me too much.
That depends on how well you treat me.
What about Nuku-Nuku ?
Leave them alone. They need to be punished for destroying the city.
Sure, your wonderful dream that heated you up will be real.
Even a little step in the beginning makes things get bigger.
Everybody, don't forget to believe in yourself.
Be in high spirits and keep on trying.
Don't get won over.
Even if gloomy days are happening.
Be in high spirits and keep on trying.
You're not wasting your endeavor on each day...
So you'll keep on shinning.
