Cuticle Detective Inaba
Are you sure you're okay with this?
You're so nice, it's tiring.
I'd even kill Joji at this point if he got in the way.
I have no hesitations.
I will kill Ogino here.
So, you followed the scent here.
You may be rotten, but you're definitely my kid.
I'm not going to forgive you for this,
Soumei!
Inaba Family Breakdown Case (Part Two)
Meeting Room
Oh, no worries. Help him get dressed.
Sorry about this...
I'm seriously pissed off about this!
Just you wait!
How about you explain some things, Soumei?
What did you do with Ogi's body?!
Cop shoots fellow police officer. It'll make a great headline.
I don't care about that!
What the hell did you do to Ogi's bangs?!
No one cares about that!
They were a little long, so Yataro cut them.
What did you cut them with?
Sulk
No...
With those...
With those cheap scissors they sell at hundred yen shops?!
Inaba-san is in so much shock that he forgot about gravity!
I'm not going to forgive you two for this.
I'm going to beat you both to a pulp!
Oh, please do.
I highly doubt that you'd be able to attack thi—
Cuticle Bolt...
...Max!
Burnt To a Crisp
Hold on a sec!
No hesitation whatsoever?!
There's no need for me to hold back on Ogi's body.
Well, I know I'm okay and all, but...
Curse you, Ogi, for being so tough.
You're sounding like the villain right now, Inaba-san!
Hey, Soumei, how does it feel to be in Ogi's body?
Probably used up quite a bit of energy.
I can go all out, and Ogi still won't die.
I won't let anyone kill Ogi.
And if I get rid of Yataro, you won't be able to recover.
You're just gonna run out of energy!
It would be a bit rough to lose my vessel right now.
I'm throwing in some extra service here.
Daddy will protect you.
Bring it on, my idiot son.
If you're planning to lay a finger on my vessel,
I'll kill you right here and now.
Intent to kill!
Inaba-san, did you not notice?!
We're at a serious disadvantage!
The ogre's got two clubs instead of one!
Say your prayers, Soumei!
That's my line, my idiot son!
What's going on? I burned out all at once.
Since you're more psychological than physical,
psychological attacks will probably work better on you.
Black hair means black aura.
The miasma that brings utter despair to all.
Haven't seen it since episode one, huh?
Damn, you're so nonsensical.
Ow!
Inaba-san!
Oh. Inaba-san.
You've got to be pretty strong psychologically
to live in a spirit form for so long.
I can heal with white hair.
Though I get super hairy on the spot I healed.
An afro?!
The subordinate of Ogi's that you shot has been healed by now, too.
Your attempt to frame Ogi failed.
His subordinate doesn't blame him at all.
And the bullet was identified as Yataro's.
Hiroshi, is your ability infinite?
Red, blond, black, white and brown.
Those are the five colors that give me powers.
Just the five natural hair colors.
He flew?!
The special power from brown hair?
Buzz...
So mean...
All of you spraying me with bug spray...
Sorry! It was sort of an instinct...
I can fly because I get brown wings from brown hair.
Isn't that amazing?
I'd rather see feathery wings!
What were you planning to do by flying, anyway?
Huh? Well, I was aiming for Yataro...
Oh, yeah... Nacchan was always the one exterminating roaches...
How disgusting...
You should be more careful, Hiroshi.
You're wide open.
Sorry we're late, Soumei-san.
It's the poison you wanted.
What the hell is with your timing?
Ogi!
Hold it.
You stay right there.
This would all be for naught if you healed him now.
Don't worry.
I told them to get one that won't make him suffer...
The hell?! He's majorly suffering, Haruka!
Oh. Sorry. My bad.
You said that totally monotone!
I'll heal him if it kills me!
Stop acting so tough. You've lost.
I'm not bluffing, you damn brat!
I'm not bluffing either, you old coot!
I'm not going to let him die here!
He's my...
partner!
Next time, I'd like to see things the way you do.
Next time...
Let's be partners...
Damn it!
Ogi!
You brats...
Soumei-san, please pull back!
Yata's going to die!
I'm not going to forget about today.
You're my prey.
I will arrest you, no matter what.
Sigh...
Wow, he's super depressed.
Sigh...
Well, you can't blame him.
Soumei totally had his way with his body while he was out.
By the way, why's Yuuta depressed, too?
Sigh...
Oh, we can leave that alone.
He's just sad that Ogi-san wasn't killed.
Ogi.
Hiroshi.
I can't face my subordinate.
I don't know what to do.
Don't cry! I'll be fine.
What do you mean, you'll be fine?
Forget about your subordinate.
You should care more about not having bangs anymore, you idiot!
Only you are worried about that!
You've burned out this much...
So cute.
He said the pain medicine is working, so you can come back in now.
He said you should stay like this for a while.
This screws things up a bit.
Get well soon, Soumei-san.
A little to the right.
Joji...
Seems like your lives are connected...
I'm the only one who can't move past thirty years ago.
No good! No good at all!
Not bad, Glasses!
Oh, it wasn't a failure. It just got a little out of control...
Be careful.
What was that?!
Love Flag Jumble Case Countermeasures Headquarters
Meeting Room
Yataro has split personalities,
and sometimes this personality comes out.
Lies
Split personalities?
What, was he abused as a kid?
He must have been through a lot. Poor guy.
Well, he was raised by a good-for-nothing foster father.
Who the hell are you talking about?
So, this one would be Jiro....
J-Jiro?!
And the reason that Taro doesn't talk is because of psychogenesis?
Exactly.
I see. The mystery's been solved.
But that really is some difference.
Squee
Let's go on a date, little girl.
Where'd that come from?!
You're going on a date with Noah-san?
I mean, Yata is?
Not a bad idea. I'll have Yata go.
Yataro's not going to be able to seduce Noah.
If words were all it took to get a woman, it'd be easy.
If we can lead her on enough, maybe we can lure her into NORA.
That's not fair for Noah-san!
Haruka-san, please say something!
Neither of them would be bad for each other,
so I don't see any reason to interfere.
If the two of them agree to the date...
There isn't a prob—
Snort
Soumei-san!
Bring out Yata!
Well, I always make him carry my things...
So I thought I'd treat him to some food sometime...
Smirk
A date? You're going on a date with Glasses?
Lorenzo, we shall be having sekihan tonight!
I don't want any!
He's quite a catch. He's tall, but he's obedient.
He's a bit unreliable, but he's sincere, he is.
I know, isn't he? Great, isn't it?
He eats a lot.
I was wondering if you could recommend some places to eat.
Noah...
Please be careful.
Men are all wolves.
Ahahahahahaha
Perv Perv
Perv
Oh, Lorenzo, you're such a perv.
What are you imagining?
Wh-What?
Hey! You're turning bright red!
Oh, but I can't see your face.
All right, then.
It is settled. Dinner shall be on me, it shall.
I love you, Don!
If that's the case, I don't need dinner tomorrow night.
I was thinking that she only had interest in experiments and not men...
She is a girl, she is.
Oh, I want to call!
Yuuta, listen to this! Accept my moe!
Am I cheating somehow? No, no. Yuuta is a friend.
He's obsessing over the wolf, so we're even!
Moe is moe!
Oh, wait. Yuuta's not my friend.
He's an enemy.
What does Yuuta like about the wolf?
Now that I think about it, the wolf has glasses, too.
My glasses have split personalities with a huge gap.
We'd probably be able to talk all night just about our glasses.
I've never been on a date.
What am I supposed to wear?
I don't want to dress like a kid.
But maybe dressing too much like an adult will make him back away.
He doesn't talk at all, so I don't know what he likes.
Yuuta, pick for me!
I want to see you. I want to talk to you...
Yuuta.
Wh-What am I going to do?
What am I going to do? What am I going to do?
What the heck? Yata's actually serious about this!
He's giving off the cool guy aura.
I think you're just imagining it.
Found you!
Flap, flap, flap...
Did you come to interfere, Mr. Assistant?!
I could ask the same thing of you.
That's not it! I was just worried...
Isn't that right, Haruka-san?
Where are you, Haruka-san?!
You can't even keep an eye on Glasses?
What is your purpose in life?!
Stop yelling! He'll know we're here!
Oh. They think that I haven't figured out they're there yet...
Taro?
Meeting up like this is pretty fresh.
You're looking pretty handsome today.
You look pretty, too, Noah-san.
You always look cute, but today you look more mature,
Twin
which actually emphasizes your loli-ness.
Chibi
Confident
I welcome that reverse effect.
Fourteen
Thank you very much.
Flat
You've gone beyond my expectations yet again today.
I can feel my muscle strain dissipating.
That's right, the loli pressure point is good for your health.
Kidding.
Why the hell is he so popular?
Oh, they've moved!
We're going after them.
You know, I have to wonder about us
following someone around on their date.
Then why are you here?
You have the least to do with any of this.
Wow.
This must look like some strange kind of fashion sense to you guys.
The date with Noah is important for NORA.
Don't get in the way.
Don't get me wrong.
I just want the best for Noah, too.
It's Noah's first date.
I want it to be a fun memory for her.
So...
I'll help you guys out.
Your phoniness is multiplying!
And so, must-have date situation number one:
get surrounded by delinquents.
Hey, bro, you look like you're having fun.
It's pissing me off!
That's a top-ranked delinquent right there!
Well, Yataro won't say anything, so maybe some action is needed.
What irresponsible crap are you saying?!
Are you trying to break them, too?
Beats me. I'm not really sure.
But it irritates me when Yataro and Natsuki are troubled
over something other than myself.
Meaning, I feel better if I trouble them with my own hands.
Must-have date situation number two:
the klutz falls and sprains an ankle, resulting in a piggyback ride.
It turned into a banana road in an instant?!
This isn't good... We can't move.
You're all overestimating banana peels way too much!
He used to...
Fall.
It was useless!
Why... Why won't you hold my hand anymore?
Because you can read information by touching his hand.
Please stop reading my thoughts!
I can't help it. I just hear it.
I'm lonely.
It's like Yata's going somewhere far away.
When you're done crying, let go.
Then I'm just going to keep crying.
Idiot.
What's going on?
Yuuta-kun, it could be that Haruka...
He replaced himself with a dummy?!
No, I am Yuuta.
Shut up! Yuuta-kun, where'd you go?!
The whole place reeks of her phoniness.
I want to hurry and leave.
He doesn't look like he's having fun.
I guess it can't be helped since I'm dragging him
around while I do stuff I want.
I wonder if Yuuta would understand.
I'm going
outside.
Must-have date situation number three:
the rival appears.
I've come to reveal your true form,
you lying wolf.
If you get in the way of people's romance,
you won't die very pleasantly.
Yataro's one thing,
but there's no way I can let you have her!
It might be better if we kill you off.
Yuuta?
Yuuta!
All right, the final blow!
Poke, poke, poke, poke, poke...
Hey, wait a sec, Yuuta! Hold on!
What? You were a wolf, too?
Why, you idiot?!
There's no way the Don would allow a wolf!
Do you want to die?!
He's a bit unreliable, but he's sincere, he is.
The Don believed in you! Why did you lie to us?!
Haruka-san.
Please take care of Natsuki.
Please, Noah-san.
In exchange for my life, please...
please grant two requests.
I'm sorry, Soumei-san.
Please let me... let me protect Natsuki in the end.
Please don't tell Natsuki that I'm a wolf!
They had no idea about this...
He's planning to sacrifice himself?
And lastly...
Please save Soumei-san!
Wait a second. What do you mean?
Sorry, Missy.
Jiro?
I'm Soumei-san.
I thought you might be able to save me,
so I got closer to the mafia.
My apologies.
As you can see, I don't have a body right now, so I'm borrowing Yataro's.
I've been living like this for over thirty years now.
I happen to be special even among werewolves,
and because of that, they've frozen my body,
and it's being carefully held somewhere.
Hold on a sec. This was thirty years ago, right?
Freezing wouldn't be enough.
Not even with the current technology.
Yeah, I was wondering what I'd do even if I found my body.
But if I do find it, I'll need your help, Missy.
How about it? As a doctor, as a scientist,
doesn't that sound intriguing?
You want to challenge the geniuses from thirty years ago, don't you?
I'll give you permission to use Yataro's body, as well.
You can study the rare werewolf all you want.
If you have any terms, go ahead and state them.
All I want is you.
Hey, you brat.
You better take responsibility for ruining the date!
Blank
Get away from me, you frozen geezer.
You'd better take her to dinner.
Should I go home, too?
No...
There's a myriad of things I want to talk to you about.
Who else am I supposed to talk to about all this?
I don't want to dwell on all this alone anymore.
Hey.
You idiot!
Yata, you idiot!
Well, we were complete outsiders.
Don't let it get to you.
What do you mean?
Seriously, why are you even in NORA?
Inaba-san is super worried about you.
I have something I need to do in NORA.
And exactly what is that?!
I won't tell.
Jeez...
