What should we name it?
I can't think of a boy name or a girl name that we both like.
Hey! Daddy's here!
Mitsuo...
Hold it, Sumire. I want it to be a surprise when it's born.
Don't tell me, okay?
They said it's an esper.
We need to think of names we can both agree on.
If it's a boy, we'll call him Ichiro.
Or maybe go for something international, like Rulurov...
Esper?
I found out during my exam today.
But the doctor said there's a chance its powers would fade after birth, so...
Mitsuo?
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!
25th sense. "A Prayer For An Easy Birth! Hello, Baby"
We still haven't found Major Hyobu?
We're trying everything we can, but...
Besides that, powerful espers are
going missing all over the world and vanishing from prisons.
More of Hyobu's doing, I'd wager.
We can't rule out the possibility.
Meaning he's gathered a significant number of espers around him, right?
I want BABEL to build a future
where espers and Normals can join hands in friendship.
Whatever PANDRA and the "queen" are,
I won't let them stop that.
Are we making smooth progress?
Yes, it's all going according to plan.
Thank you. I know this has been tough for you.
You were just a child when I first brought you onboard.
The strain's made you look old before your time!
Don't you think you should make yourself look a bit more mature?
Perish the thought! I leave the tough stuff to you.
We're nearly to the shield now!
We're home!
PANDRA's homeland!
Try not to drop the husks on me.
When will Kaoru come to the island?
Don't be hasty. We'll wait a bit more.
Wait how long?
Until she realizes that espers and Normals cannot coexist.
We won't have long to wait.
Ooh, I can't wait till she does!
When she does, I'll take her under my wing, since I'm her senior here!
The time is drawing near, my queen.
Huh? Canceled? Mom, you did this to me last time, too!
Sis can't come, either?
What's the deal?
Fine, I get it. I'll eat by myself and then go back.
It's fine. You don't have to apologize.
Good luck with your work. Later.
Darn it, I was looking forward to this, too.
Absolutely Chiru-Chiru!
I'm home.
Welcome back!
Kaoru?
Welcome back! Did you have fun at dinner?
Yeah. I'm full, so I'm going to bed.
We're off!
See you later. And watch out for cars!
I'm off.
Kaoru, did something happen last night?
Like what? Nothing, really.
It's Chisato!
Good morning!
Good morning, everyone!
See you, Minamoto!
Say, why is it you three are always leaving early together
and come to school together?
Well... There's a lot of reasons for that. Like cases, and...
Because our parents all work together!
See, they all work at the same job, so...
Right! Right!
Kaoru, no!
Keep it secret!
Jeez, I know!
What do they do?
Yipe!
Um... They, uh... Pass!
Uh, they... Uh... You take it! Pass!
Government jobs.
Right!
That's it! That's totally it!
But, there're all sorts of government jobs, right?
And that young man, Mr. Minamoto?
What's his relationship with you?
Tono!
Hey there, Akashi.
I challenge you to a game of tops!
Okay, but prepare to be beat!
Bring it on!
I'll go, too! Bring it on!
Wait! Bring it on!
I'd swear they were hiding something.
I didn't win today, either.
How can espers and Normals really get along better?
Mr. Hyobu...
Miss Akashi!
Yes?!
No daydreaming! Class is in session now.
Sorry...
What is wrong with Kaoru?
I wonder what she's thinking about.
Sorry!
No, I'm the one who should apologize.
What's wrong?
That lady...
The pregnant one?
What's wrong with her?
She's worried about something.
No... Sad about something.
Sad?
It seemed that way.
But isn't having a baby supposed to be a happy thing?
Right. I don't think there's any parent who isn't happy about it.
I wonder if my mom happy when she had me.
Of course.
Even though I'm an esper?
Why do you ask? Of course she was happy.
I see.
I'm also glad that you girls were born.
Because we were able to meet like this.
Minamoto.
Kaoru.
Aoi.
Shiho.
Thank you for being born.
Mr. Minamoto.
Aw, jeez... Don't say such embarrassing things, Minamoto!
Maybe it'd been better if we hadn't met...
It's getting bigger.
Yeah.
It's a baby elephant!
A major landslide has occurred at Mt. Gohya.
A tunnel collapsed and several passing vehicles have been trapped inside.
Special espers, move out!
It looks like a number of cars have been trapped inside the tunnel.
Rescue will take a long time, even with heavy machinery.
All right, let's begin rescue operations.
Wait!
Get those media helicopters out of the area first!
We can't let them get pictures of the girls.
Yes, Chief! At once!
SCENE OF TUNNEL LANDSLIDE
What are you watching?
Prepare the boat.
Huh? It's an order?
Wait!
All right, let's try this again!
Yeah!
Special espers The Children, released!
Neither rain nor wind will beat us!
If someone is troubled, we'll extend a helping hand!
That's the kind of person I want to be!
The Absolutely Lovely Children!
Minor injuries. He's just unconscious.
R-Roger.
They did that instantly.
That's amazing power. Do they even need us here?
No, it's not like that!
Psychic powers can't do everything, and those girls aren't magicians.
I don't think having great power means you can handle everything.
Everyone here has to do all that they can.
They may be espers, but they're still just little kids.
Their abilities bring them nothing but trouble in normal life.
For their sake and the sake of many other espers,
they must constantly use them to prove themselves.
Prove what?
That psychic powers can help people and bring happiness to them.
Now, Aoi!
I'm on it!
Unconscious from the blow to his chest, but life signs are stable.
How many more?
Just a passenger in a taxi.
Piece of cake!
Leave it to us!
Please.
Okay, now we can rescue them.
Huh? This is...
From before!
The baby inside is okay.
That's a relief!
But the mother isn't.
Let's get her to the hospital, fast!
Roger! All right, we're headed back.
Wait!
What's?
Aoi, your body!
What? There's trouble?
What happened?
Are you okay? You're not hurt, are you?!
No, it's not that...
Spit it out! What's happened?!
Something's gone wrong with Aoi's teleportation.
Get me out! Kaoru, get me out of here, now!
And my powers have weakened, too.
Looks like we can't get back.
What?!
My powers have weakened too, so I can't scan very deep, but...
What's wrong?
The baby's causing this.
What?!
It's an esper. A powerful one.
Its psychic waves are jamming our powers.
The baby's an esper?
What should we do, Minamoto?
Digging you out with heavy machinery will take half a day.
Can you wait that long?
We don't have that much time. The mother's getting weaker.
Gotcha. Don't worry. Just sit tight.
Okay?
Hey, Kaoru? Do you read me?
Shiho! Aoi!
Mr. Minamoto!
Minamoto!
Communications are cut.
Is it the baby's power, too?
Probably.
What's Mr. Minamoto going to do?
Since he said to wait and not worry...
All we can do it sit here and trust him.
It'll be all right. I know he'll come and save us...
Shiho?
The baby... It's scared.
It's scared of being born!
It's dad and mom are both scared of it being born an esper.
It senses that and is scared of coming out into the world.
So it lost control!
No way...
Sumire! Eri, or Ichiro! Possibly Rulurov!
H-Hold it!
I'm coming to save you!
Sumire! Eri or Ichiro!
Who's?
Minamoto. We're almost ready to go.
Rulurov!
It's dangerous! Please, move back!
But!
We'll get them out, I promise!
Kaoru!
It's... kinda hard...
Don't look so down.
Minamoto will come to save us, soon.
Yeah.
So we have to try and hang on till then!
Mr. Minamoto...
Hey, baby. You hear me in there?
We've had a lot of sad and painful things happen
since we were born espers.
Our parents were scared of us,
we couldn't go to school and we had no friends.
But there's plenty of good things about being an esper, too!
Kaoru!
We've had plenty of happy things, too!
Because somebody told us they were glad to have met us!
Yeah! There's nothing to be scared of!
We're here for you!
That's right! We'll protect you!
Right! So just relax and get born already!
Kaoru!
I'm... okay!
I've got their exact position.
Kaoru can't hold out much longer!
Aim for the large crack inside the rocks!
Roger!
Naomi, are you ready?
Yes, sir! Any time now!
It'll be all right. The calculations are right.
And that rock Kaoru's holding up should protect them.
Minamoto!
FIRE!
MINAMOTO!
Everybody! Now!
You okay?
Thank goodness!
Good job!
You made it.
I can teleport!
Maybe the baby understood us.
W-We're saved?
Thank God!
Sumire! Erika or Ichiro! Thank God you're safe...
Great job!
Jeez, it took you long enough.
We got tired, waiting for you!
We could have died!
Sorry.
Locating you, correctly determining
the condition of the rocks, targeting the beam,
and preparing for entry all took time.
Everyone helped.
Everyone?
Yes, everyone.
Everyone from BABEL, the rescue team, the fire department...
This came from everyone working together.
Well done!
You did great!
What's wrong, Kaoru?
No, it's nothing.
See? Being an esper has its good side, too.
Right?
That's the future which BABEL desires.
A future where esper and Normal live and work together.
Yes. And I know that future will come.
When I see those children, that's what I think.
That's why I won't let you interfere with that...
PANDRA. Hyobu!
You helped Kaoru, didn't you?
Perhaps, but not so she'd notice.
I don't want the queen to be hurt.
Besides, that baby may join us in the future.
You really like 'em young, don't you?
What was that?! You little rodent!
You pedo!
DELIVERY ROOM
It's finally born!
Thank you for being born!
That family will be just fine.
The father and mother are happy from the bottom of their hearts.
Thank goodness it was born safely!
No parent isn't happy when their child is born...
I just know that espers and Normals can get along.
They can!
Hey, Minamoto.
I'd like to have your baby!
Oh! Me, too! Me, too!
Ah, but do you know how to make a baby?
I dunno, but Minamoto must.
Mr. Minamoto, I'd like a girl and a boy!
I'd like twins.
C'mon, tell us how they're made!
Quit playing around!
Minamoto's mad now!
But why?
I don't understand!
Hey! Stop teasing grown-ups!
Because, you're my heart's desire!
Yeah
When it comes to you, you see
My ESP is no good at all
Love is a puzzle that even
Pythagoras couldn't solve
Don't hang your head or have a tearful face
Because miracles are born from smiles
My, my, my heart's desire
Zoom zoom!
I want to make
Bye-bye!
You my bold desire
So absolutely serious, it gives me chills!
Trans, trans, transform
Zoom zoom!
I'll give you
Yeah yeah!
A dynamite kiss!
I absolutely want you to love me!
Because, you're my heart's desire

His predictions are always dead on.
They're unavoidable.
What's the prediction of?
Of my own death.
But the truth is there's another important prediction,
and if possible, I'd like to prevent it.
Zettai Karen Children!

At this range, you'll definitely kill me.
Shoot, Minamoto.
Kaoru, don't!
A Change of Prediction? The Future Dances! Kaoru, don't!
A Change of Prediction? The Future Dances! We're absolutely lovely, so we never lose!
