The time will soon be at hand.
Right now, you need only remain in slumber...
...until the time comes for us to display our fury...
we wanna be there even if we had to twist the world all around to get there
without you, i guess i couldn't even find the future here today
i was always trying to take nothing for granted
for the day i might lose them
but you just came in to my black and white monochrome destiny
and colored it all over
we won't be satisfied with the routine future
we were born to make a new history come true
there's absolutely no absolute thing in this world
this road goes on forever
as long as we won't give up
Nice Day for a Death Bazaar!
I see...
If there is a witch directing them behind the scenes,
you suspect one of those three, then?
Yes. These last Traitor incidents have been perpetrated
by law-abiding citizens who suddenly change.
If a witch were involved,
I figured it would be one with skill in mind control.
What about this witch, Arachne, that you have singled out here?
That witch is skilled in the development of Magic Tools,
and appears to have tried creating Magic Tools to brainwash people,
but on further inspection, she seems to have perished 800 years ago.
Besides which, these Traitors all display
the peculiarity of not sleeping.
Through depriving them of sleep, their sense of fear is lost,
and by casting mind control on them,
they can create soldiers who never rest.
As for those without any martial arts experience,
we think they have been expanding the abilities of people
who aren't particularly physically gifted
by performing some kind of special doping on them.
They would indeed be the ideal soldier.
Mm-hmm. And after you followed that line of reasoning
and started checking backgrounds,
the most likely suspect was that witch,
Shaula Gorgon.
This is, after all, merely conjecture.
Witches are crafty. Even if we know who the culprit is,
tracking them down is still the hard part.
Even so, well spotted, Clay. A witch's record is often cryptic,
and rather than just a decade or two, they go back for centuries.
They need those like you, who have elevated analytical skills,
here at Central Intelligence.
Thanks.
What's one plus one?
Eh? W-Why are you asking me, out of the blue?! Let's see...
Two! It's two, of course!
A bit slow on the uptake, though.
Oh, be quiet!
Well, that's where you, the cool, collected Akane, must support him.
Meister and weapon are two in one.
Geez, we came the way you said to, Miss Meme,
and now we're lost, aren't we?
As I recall, Miss Anya, you were the one who suggested a shortcut.
That's because we have a study session, Miss Meme,
and you forgot your textbook.
Now, now, you two. It's an "underground" shortcut. Get it? [chika: underground] [chikamichi: shortcut]
I am going this way. Miss Tsugumi, you're coming this way too, right?
Huh?
I think it's that way. What about you, Tsugumi?
Well... Let's see...
I think...
- Tsugumi! - Miss Tsugumi!
Ah! I wonder if there's someone in that room!
Yes?
Please excuse us. Huh?
Oh!
Hey there.
What are you all doing here?
Oh, uh... How can I say this?
I was telling Sid-sensei that I like him...
Sid-sensei asked us to pick up some snacks for him.
Sorry for putting you out like that.
Is that right?
Yes! Yes, yes. Mm-hmm.
By the way, what are you doing here?
As it happens, while we were on our way back to the classroom
to get something we forgot, we got lost.
DWMA is set up like a maze, in order to keep its secrets.
It's Miss Tsugumi's fault.
It's because she can't choose a route or a partner that we're lost.
She's right, Miss Tsugumi.
You, too, Meme?
Oh, you haven't picked a partner yet?
There are some meisters who have two weapons,
but I've never heard of one weapon having two different meisters.
You're afraid that whichever partner you choose,
it's going to end up hurting the other one, right?
Harudori, you've got a kind heart.
Mr. Akane, it's because you say that sort of thing
that Miss Tsugumi is having trouble deciding, isn't it?
She could always choose someone besides you two.
Hey! You guys are lost, right? I'll get you back upstairs!
Oh, that's right!
The study session!
Hmm... I'm bored.
There're no customers.
I guess no one wants to look at your sulky face, Master.
If only you could tell a joke.
A joke, huh?
Long ago, my entire family was killed,
and ever since, I've been unable to laugh.
I'm joking.
Nobody's gonna get that!
It was just my daughter that was killed.
I'm joking. I never married.
Hello!
Welcome.
Yo! We saved your seats for you.
Wow! Thank you so much!
But from the looks of it, there was no need to make a reservation.
No way!
I don't wanna! I don't wanna! I don't wanna!
Come on!
We came all this way to look after your studies, so let's do it!
It's no surprise that Miss Jackie's notes are well-organized,
and easy to follow, is it?
Easy to follow? Which part?
Stop your complaining and concentrate.
You're going to have to break down and memorize the basics by heart.
Miss Meme can remember everything covered by the test.
Huh? There's going to be a test on this?
What did you think today's get-together was for?
Oh, of course!
'Sup?
We came to take your orders.
I'll have a royal milk tea, please.
Iced café au lait!
A cappuccino for me.
Iced lemon tea, please.
I'll have an iced café mocha.
We'll just bring enough of whatever for all of you.
What, again?
Aw, Jackie, you're such a straight-laced chick,
I'm surprised you're not better at teaching.
What can I say? You just don't have a knack for it.
Not to mention being dreadful.
Then why don't you have Ox teach you?
Huh?
He'd be glad to spoon-feed a selfish tanuki like you.
And while you're at it, you could stand to learn some discipline.
Okay, fine. I'll put up with the straight-laced chick.
What's with the look?!? You're pissing me off!
There you go.
That is what you all wanted to drink, right?
Lately, I've gotten so I can tell what a customer will order
by the look on their face. This is perfect.
You wouldn't have a prayer!
Oh, yeah? Just watch me!
Go ahead and try it!
You've gotta be kidding me!
Shut up! You're thinking of going into EAT with that kind of control?
Shut up, you! I've got plenty of control!
- Ha-ha, not a chance! - What's with them?!
They're DWMA students. There are many who gain some skills in NOT,
and then start getting the wrong ideas.
Since Tsugumi and the others are here today, let's leave them alone.
Hey, you're bothering the other customers.
- Huh? - Huh?
What's your problem? We're customers, here!
Don't go acting so tough, or I'll send you to the hospital.
Huh? Don't get too full of yourself, just because you're a girl...
Let's go.
Hey, waitress!
Just wait! I'm coming!
It's getting full-blown busy, huh?
I know!
Master!
We'll give you a hand.
Do we have to wear that again?
Eh?
That?
What are you doing, Jackie?
Hmm, I kind of want to try it on.
I'll pass.
Master, any work back here? And by the way, I will be getting paid.
Well, could I get you to cut up those lemons?
Huh? Kim, ma'am, you're not wearing a uniform?
I'm sure you'd look good in it.
You can just pipe down.
This is definitely too short!
Jacqueline, ma'am, you look cute.
I do?
Wow! How slender!
Not really. I mean, Tsugumi, you are, too...
But I happen to be petite all over.
Master, we're ready!
What would you like us to do?
Whoo, I'm exhausted.
Just as I thought,
we only happened to be busy for a bit.
Huh?
You could have said something before we got changed!
But it's so nice to see you in those uniforms.
Still, everything is okay.
Yes, it is. We can just blow off time
when there are no customers around, like always.
It isn't right to say that.
However, you are right; the usual pace is more relaxing.
Everyone left already, right?
- Gah! - Why, you little!
♪ Death Bazaar! ♪
♪ Death Ba... ♪
♪ Death... ♪
What's going on?
Miss Tsugumi, have you ever heard of the Death Bazaar?
Death Bazaar?
They appear to be holding one, at Death Pain Square.
People open their own shops inside the plaza,
bring their old things in, and sell them, I hear.
Are you talking about a flea market?
That's my Miss Tsugumi! You know all about poor people things!
Miss Tsugumi, I thought you might want to go, so...
Huh? No, not really.
I-I see...
Ah! Actually, I'm generally acknowledged to enjoy flea markets,
and I was thinking,
I'd love to take the opportunity to find some bargains...
Well, there, you see?
That smile isn't fighting fair.
Get this katana, with which I have slain six evildoers, for just $25!
I've got the 6mm shell casing from the round
that assassinated Mafia Don Springcherry.
So this is a flea market?
Yes. It's pretty wild here.
Please buy something!
These are my own clothes! I'll discount them as much as you like!
Eternal Feather, ma'am...
You're open for business?
Step right on up.
Huh?
These are just...
What awful fashion sense, huh?
Please, don't misunderstand!
These are clothes that Miss Kim tricked me into buying!
I want to sell these clothes, and buy some clothes that I can wear
to go shopping for more fancy clothes.
So please, buy these clo...
Please buy something. These are my own clothes.
Hi there.
Hmm, there's a lot here, but not really anything I want, you know?
Oh, my! How lovely!
I guess if you enjoy it, Miss Anya, it's all right.
Is this a garbage dump?
If you keep scaring away customers with that look,
you don't stand a chance of selling anything!
I always have this look on my face!
Stop screwing around! You just don't want to sell your books, right?
But you'll chuck out my things like crazy.
If you're not gonna read the books, sell them!
There's no room in our place to keep them!
Shut up! That's why we're here, right?!
Um, about those books...
You jerk! Come on, smile! Come on!
Maka, ma'am, hello.
Hey!
Huh?
Wow. Books, huh?
Sell them. They're just in the way.
Nyah!
Oh, that book! I read that book just as I was starting school,
at the same time you're at now, Tsugumi.
Oh, yeah?
Is that right?
Tsugumi, you like books?
Huh? Oh, yes.
Okay. Well, you can have that book.
Huh? No, I couldn't!
In return, just read it carefully.
Thank you very much! I will treasure reading it!
Ugh, finally, one of them.
Miss Anya! Meme!
Oh, Miss Tsugumi. Where have you been?
Why is she smiling like that?
Please help me.
Maybe I should give up and go home.
Wow...
Step right up.
All of these accessories have a scorpion motif, huh?
Yes.
I'm a Scorpio myself, and I want to be the sort of mysterious woman
who can beguile others at first bite.
Well then...
...what about this one?
That's fantastic!
The price is reasonable, too.
I'll take it!
Shall I put it on you?
Here...
Okay.
Ow!
Are you all right, miss?
Yes...
I... am... fine...
I'm glad we came.
Well, there, you see?
What should we go look at next?
Are you okay, Tsugumi?!
Mm-hmm...
Eternal Feather, ma'am...?
Those eyes...
Your bag will be cut in half! Dodge to the side!
What are you doing?
You're a DWMA student, right?
Watch out!
I won't let you touch my meister.
I should have been there to protect Miss Anya.
You know her?
Yes. She's one of our NOT class seniors.
Eternal Feather, ma'am!
It doesn't look like she can hear you.
We can't allow her to get hurt. Soul, we can't attack her.
Gotcha.
Don't resist! We don't want to hurt you!
Miss Feather! Let's talk about what happened!
Eternal Feather, ma'am!
If this keeps up, we'll just do more damage.
Let's bring her under control, Soul.
Here goes!
It looks like an EAT pair have come to their aid.
If they're facing a single weapon, they should be fine.
Sure enough, with that amount of venom,
it would be difficult to compete with an EAT meister.
But her being in NOT aside,
it was so easy to take control of a strong-willed DWMA student.
Letting the subject be apprehended
and investigated would be problematic.
All right. Let's end this by seeing
just how far the brainwashing will allow me to command her.
Kill yourself.
Don't do it!
Hurry and get some help! Everyone, help me stop the bleeding!
Get something to hold against this wound!
What do we do?! We can't stop the bleeding!
With a big wave and a "See you,"
let's meet in the new day
Our shadows stretch along the pavement
coming together, then apart, then together
What do I say when the road home ends?
You are not alone. Nope, right nearby,
there are eyes looking back at you
And just like a miracle,
they can turn even failures into laughter
Thank you for a fun day
Let's do it again tomorrow
We'll open a brand-new door
chasing after dreams and love
and those nameless feelings, too
Tsugumi, the day will come when you will choose your partner.
Either myself, or Miss Anya.
Miss Tsugumi, you don't have a blade because you have no resolve!
He's got a screw in his head!
Ultimately, only one person can make the decision.
Next time; Tsugumi Spiral!
