ROKUJOIN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Okay, let's begin the morning meeting.
Because of circumstances at home,
Akashi, Nogami, and Sannomiya will be absent today.
Aw, that's lame.
Okay, attendance time. Asakawa? Aw, that's lame.
Okay, attendance time. Asakawa? I was gonna show off my new killer move to them.
Here. I was gonna show off my new killer move to them.
Ikeda? I was gonna show off my new killer move to them.
Here.
Ueno?
Here. I wonder what's keeping them home?
Enzo? I wonder what's keeping them home?
Here. I wonder what's keeping them home?
Here.
It's pretty awesome, invincible power!
Boy, does it feel great
Absolutely lovely! So we never lose!
Come on, let's head for tomorrow!
Zettai Karen Children
Yeah!
Zettai Karen Children Absolutely!
Zettai Karen Children
Daring!
It just takes a touch for me to know
The limiter on my heart
Has been released, and then you see
Yes! Change the world!
Trying again and again through hot battle!
Reaching through what's real
Absolutely lovely! So we never lose!
The thrills just can't be beat!
Courage begins to light the darkness of the world
It overflows with the miracles you gave
If you can take pride in a smile
That suits no one else
Then let's go beyond the future now
We can try over the future world!
Yeah!
Ultimate!
Daring!
7th sense. "Ordinary! The Children, Restrained"
2 km to the north-east, moving south-southwest at 50 kph.
Okay, we'll start with that one!
Here we go.
Here we go! PSYCHIC V-SLASH!
Kaoru! On your left!
Whew! Amazing power, as always.
Stay sharp! There are probably still enemies in the area.
We know!
Found them.
North-northwest, 1 km.
Let's take 'em out!
The Children have moved.
These small fries are obviously no match for The Children.
All right, let's get this started.
Activating new model ECM!
The fog's really thick around here.
Where's the enemy?
I'm searching for them.
I can't spot them! I'm being jammed!
What?!
Temporary withdrawal!
Huh? I can't teleport!
Then I'll take 'em!
Kaoru, no!
Oh, no!
Abort! Abort! Abort test of the ECM!
PSYCHIC MEGATON PUNCH!
OW!
Are you okay, Kaoru?
She's fine. No broken bones, just a bruise.
Does it hurt?
Kaoru...
It doesn't hurt, not a bit.
Yes, it does.
Well, that's why I told you stop.
It's your fault too, Mr. Minamoto!
You should have just said we were doing an ECM test from the start.
If you knew about the test beforehand,
we wouldn't get proper results.
What else are you hiding?
Nothing! Just the part about the ECM!
Kaoru, say something, too!
Um... Well...
What's ECM?
That's the ECM.
ESP Counter Measures.
In Japanese, chou-nouryoku taikou souchi.
In short, it's a psychic power jammer.
I can't believe it could jam a Level 7's powers.
We heard about it lots of times in our lectures, right?
Oh... We have?
Not a scrap of memory. She must have slept through it.
This new ECM generates a powerful psychic wave,
and jams out every type of psychic power.
We had more data for these compared to the current generation,
and they're a lot more efficient,
but their large size remains a drawback.
Thank heavens you're all right!
Is your injury okay?
Is there anything I can do to help?
Ask me for anything!
He's the culprit.
Agh! Chief!
Boy, that's a relief! I can use my powers!
Dammit, Kaoru! Stop that!
No, it's... It's all right, Minamoto.
Chief!
I, the chief of BABEL, even if it was unintentionally,
caused an esper to be injured!
This is only fitting.
But, sir!
Don't hold back!
Hit me with the full force of your Level 7 powers!
Well, if you insist.
More! More! Hurt me until you feel better!
Hurt me, please!
Worst sort of teacher, from the moment he gets up in the morning...
But, that ECM's a weapon to be used to counter espers like us, right?
Why would BABEL be helping to develop it?
If those things go on sale,
we wouldn't be able to use our powers freely anymore.
Don't tell me you think it'd be better if we didn't have our powers.
N-no, it's not like that!
You're worried the limiters aren't enough?
Are some people scared unless they can hold us down?
Kaoru, that's not it! I just...
He thinks "That might make things easier."
For just a moment, he thought "If they couldn't read minds...
"or enter illegally or collapse walls, it would be better."
I see.
No! Kaoru?
Whoa...
Hey, I'm different! I'm an esper too, okay?
Chief, we just got an emergency alert from the precogs at HQ!
Chief, what are you doing?
Ah... That feels better.
We have details on the prediction.
92% probability.
In 30 minutes, two espers between Levels 4 and 5...
will initiate a major drunken brawl.
Drunks fighting? Oh, for Pete's sake...
Yeah, but unlike one between ordinary people,
it's possible this could cause a lot of damage to their surroundings.
Oh, that's right.
The ECM's there for times like these, isn't it?
Between Levels 4 and 5, huh?
There shouldn't be that many, but...
We've reached the airspace over the scene.
Shockwave!
Why, you...
Shockwave, back at ya!
There's already a crowd of onlookers.
If this gets on the news, it'll just cause lots trouble for other espers.
We'd better take them in before the media arrives.
You three ready?
We can go anytime!
Okay... The Children, released!
<> Okay... The Children, released!
<>
Bring it!
Oh, yeah?
Hold it!
The fragrant morning is bright-red justice!
The wind blowing in the field is blue friendship!
And the violet mixed in is a noble heart!
The Absolutely Lovely Children!
The crowd's growing.
Let's catch these guys, fast.
Let's do it!
PSYCHIC BRAWL DOUBLE-BUSTER!
Mr. Minamoto, now! Hurry!
C'mon, let's get going, too.
Okay, got 'em.
Mr. Minamoto!
These men aren't espers!
What?!
What about all that blasting before?
Electronics hidden under their clothes!
There's also traces of fireworks that were set up.
Could this be?
This was all a trap designed to lure in you special espers!
Who are these guys?
They aren't just a normal crowd?
No, we're normal.
And normal people hate espers!
On their behalf, we stand firm in battle against you!
You're that anti-esper group, the Normal People?!
Correct!
Your hatred of espers led you to go this far?!
You're not normal! Far from it!
You're wrong! We are! We are normal!
These guys are the Normal People?!
Kaoru...
I'll catch these guys, no prob!
My power's gone, too! It feels like before!
ECM!
Impossible! There's only one ECM in the nation that can suppress Level 7's!
The Normal People are everywhere!
What?!
Including in the military.
Yo-de-le-hi-hi! Natsuko here.
Wow. Why did you yodel? By Hotaru.
The Children have been taken hostage,
and it looks like the pilot couldn't fight them off and was taken as well.
I've been calling them telepathically as hard as I can,
but I'm getting no response at all.
When I try to scan for them,
it's almost like they're being shrouded in mist.
As I thought.
What do you mean, Chief?
We just received word from the research center.
It seems the new ECM has been stolen.
You mean it was stolen to be used for this?!
Then Minamoto and The Children must be close to the ECM.
No wonder...
If they harm The Children, then God help them all.
All we want is the list of all the espers BABEL possesses.
Particularly the list of special espers.
And for that, we require the password that you have in your head.
You appear to be a normal human.
Don't you think the world would be better without espers?
If you help us, we can make that world a reality.
I refuse.
In that case, have a taste of some people...
we've brought from the normal world.
A normal cafeteria lady.
A normal pensioner.
A normal salaryman.
A normal civil servant.
And finally, a normal student.
No... Stop this!
Mr. Minamoto...
We can't let them get away with this!
Listen, you two.
We can't lose our heads in this situation.
We need to play this cool and not provoke them in any way.
If we screw up, it won't just be Mr. Minamoto and us who suffer.
The pilot they captured with us will be in danger, too.
Wait for the enemy to let down their guard and then we'll move, got it?
Gotcha.
Roger!
Why, you dirty Normal People jerks!
Lemme go! What're you doing?!
Great. All the sense of a housefly... Lemme go! What're you doing?!
Convenient. Let's take this one, then.
Right.
Eat THIS!
Little brat!
Kaoru!
Come back here!
Ow, my hand's stinging now.
You men...
You're fighting children, and we're at your mercy
because our powers have been suppressed.
But mark my words, even children won't forget what you've done.
We'll have our powers back soon, and one day we'll be adults.
Shiho!
If you harm Kaoru...
then you're going to regret that you aren't dead.
Wh-What did you say, you little-
I said we shouldn't provoke them, you idiot!
But...
You keep feelings like that hidden till the very end!
Got it? Revenge is a dish best served cold.
Later on, once we have the advantage,
we can kick their asses raw as much as we like!
Sorry, guys. She's kinda silly and says stuff like that.
You can't hide your feelings at all, either!
Dammit, I gotta find some way to shut that thing off!
I'm totally helpless as I am now!
I see you're pretty stubborn, too...
1st Lieutenant Koichi Minamoto.
We don't have time for that.
Couldn't you be a little less uncooperative?
Tell us the password.
Otherwise...
Kaoru!
M-Minamoto...
Now, what will you do? Do you want to hear her scream?
You son of a!
Stop it! Is that human?!
That's right! You people aren't normal at all!
That's not for an esper to say!
Yeah! We're normal!
We Normal People don't consider espers to be human!
They're monsters, with strange powers!
They're new life forms, the natural enemies of humans!
Well, I have news for you, then!
Even espers have families and lives!
Are you just going to trample all of that?!
I have no intention of debating the matter.
We have three of those things here. We can afford to lose one.
All right. Just don't hurt her!
The password?
Minamoto, no!
"Save the Children"...
Minamoto!
Excellent! If you'd just been cooperative from the start,
you could have spared yourself all that pain.
"EMERGENCY COUNTERMEASURES ENGAGED" you could have spared yourself all that pain.
"EMERGENCY COUNTERMEASURES ENGAGED"
Emergency mode, engaged.
Now deleting all data files.
What's happening?!
Um... I didn't do anything.
You fell for it.
What?!
I figured if I held out long enough, you'd bring one of them here!
You!
Now engaging ECCM.
ECCM?
Kaoru! Blow these guys away!
But, my powers!
They're back!
PSYCHIC ANYWHERE DOOR!
What was that?
Our powers are back!
Huh? You're right!
You okay, Minamoto?
Yeah.
What's ECCM?
ESP Counter-Countermeasures. It renders ECM ineffective.
It does?
"ECCM ENGAGED" It does?
"ECCM ENGAGED" If ECM is realized, then it could be misused by people up to no good.
"ECCM ENGAGED" We needed to think of a way to counter it.
That's why BABEL was taking such an active role in its development.
Mr. Minamoto!
Kaoru!
Move it! We have to disable the ECM while we have this chance!
This is for emergencies, and the batteries won't last long.
Screw with us, huh?!
Filthy espers and your BABEL dog!
You're the destroyers of the natural order of the world!
Shoot! Eliminate the espers!
Eat this!
Stand your ground! Shoot!
PSYCHIC AEGIS SHIELD!
It's no use. Those girls are still unremarkable. They're going to die.
No. Look closely.
See the queen's true power.
No one... No thing on Earth can stop her.
Keep shooting! Kill them!
The battery's nearly dead!
Cease fire! You'll hit the ECM!
You really have been more trouble than you're worth.
Give up. You're finished.
Die.
Kaoru!
MINAMOTO!
Impossible! The ECM is!
What... What are you, you little!
Kaoru...
Monster! You're nothing but a monster!
I'll do to you what you did to Minamoto.
Kaoru, stop it!
Kaoru, stop it! It's over!
They're beaten! They see no value to you beyond your powers!
That's why they fear espers!
They aren't worth dirtying your hands over!
Kaoru...
Kaoru, are you all right?
Kaoru.
See?
What?!
The ECM...
There's no need for it. A thing like this.
Not for us.
You can be stopped.
But not by weapons or machines.
Do you understand, Kaoru?
Help.
There's no point in hiding it
I know everything
It's no mystery, because
I love you
Go on, look at me
Truly, the bond of love we share
Is absolute!
An eternal, unchanging
Absolute declaration to the world I'll shout from Everest!
I've accepted it
The bond of love we share
Is absolute!
My wish, when fortune smiles on me
In San Pietro, I'll swear it to you
An absolute declaration of love!
