The government in this world is so serious.
What's wrong, Matsukaze?
Okay, got it.
Let's hurry.
That's the Saturday Night Rider?
Sanctuary
What do I do?
I have to go to the bathroom!
I can go, right?
It'll be okay, right?
I can do it! I can do it! It'll be fine!
Don't ignore us, old lady.
We hate being treated like we're not here more than anything.
You understand?
I apologize. I'm sorry. So sorry!
Well, if you're not going to ignore us, you can pass.
Thanks so much...
Hey, she's a teacher at Gami!
What?
If you do anything to me,
I'll tell the education committee, not just the school!
The education committee?
What are you gonna tell 'em?
Well, just if you do something...
And I bet you're going to tell them all sorts of lies while you're at it.
No, I won't, I think...
Then it would be a mistake to just let you go.
Yeah! Definitely!
Tragic.
Truly tragic.
Who are you?
Bike riders are the kabukimono of this age, right?
And yet you're attacking people at random.
The only word I can think of is tragic.
So, is this a game?
Or are you serious?
If you're serious, you're ready to wear the white clothing, right?
White clothing?
If you're prepared to pick a fight with Maeda Keiji,
then you're ready to lay down your life, right?
The Saturday Night Rider was so cool!
So you saw the Saturday Night Rider, Futagawa-san.
The mysterious bike rider,
who appears every Saturday and beats up delinquents.
Lately, everybody's talking about her.
A beautiful woman in a gorgeous kimono, on a huge, black bike!
She was just like everybody said.
Yamaguchi-san.
Stop talking about nonsense and get to work.
Right.
The Saturday Night Rider?
So stupid.
Good evening, Yamaguchi-san.
Aren't you always supposed
to greet me with "good morning," Maeda-san?
Well, I was a little late,
so I didn't think "good morning" was right.
Then don't be late.
Sorry.
Are you interested in the Saturday Night Rider, too?
The Saturday Night... what?
Does it have something to do with work?
I guess not.
Get to your place.
R-Right.
Oota-san, Oota-san.
Potato Chips is here.
You're right.
He's here every day.
He must really love potato chips.
He's coming!
Welcome.
Thank you.
He bought three again today.
Yeah.
Hello!
We're here to bring in the shipment!
Shipment!
Thank you so much.
We'll leave it here.
Goodbye!
I guess those girls are fine, for beginners.
Maeda-san.
Phone off during working hours.
But it might be something important.
Maeda-san?
Hello?
Hello? Is this the Saturday Night Rider?
Oh, you.
Hey, don't be so cold.
Sorry. I'm working now.
Then I'll be quick.
I want to thank you for yesterday.
Will you meet me?
I'm working now, so I'm hanging up.
Hey!
I shouldn't have given her my number.
She said she was a teacher,
so I thought she'd have better manners.
Hey, did you hear?
Mori-san from Sanctuary's gonna take 3 months to heal.
So what's Mizuki-san gonna do about it?
Not a thing, he says!
Is Sanctuary really gonna be okay like that?
If they're talking about "Sanctuary," does that mean
they're with the guys from last night?
What is it, old lady?
You want something?
I don't mind you talking,
but do you think you could do it a little farther away?
We're customers, too.
Do you have a problem?
Please.
Neither of us would want this place going out of business.
Y-Yeah.
We wouldn't want it going out of business because of us.
Hey, guys, let's head a bit farther away.
Are you okay, Maeda-san?
Yes, I'm fine.
Aren't you scared of those thugs?
I can't believe you went up and talked to them!
Well, they can't be in front of the store like that.
They can't?
They don't suit our store's image.
They don't?
I'm gonna go change.
Okay, leave the register to me!
I'm bad with math, though!
Is this stuff gonna come out?
Kids these days.
They do the craziest stuff.
If they did it to a customer, I would've made them regret it.
Shut up!
Give me the money!
Now a robber?
This place sure is busy.
Well, I guess I'll go save them.
Give me the money!
Um, well...
I don't really remember what the manual says for robbers,
so can I go read it?
Of course not!
Give me the money!
The enemy's got a ranged weapon.
Well, it'll work out.
What do we do?
What do you mean?
What the?!
It's dark!
Did you defeat the robber?
That's amazing.
I did?
I think one of my punches hit in the darkness...
There was another robber not too long ago.
What is it with this place?
I guess a lot of strange people come to this convenience store.
Well, I suppose that applies to you, too.
Do you think so?
I wish the Saturday Night Rider had come instead of a robber...
Yeah, but they're so violent that they'd just cause a big ruckus instead.
But don't you think a ruckus might be fun?
I'm kind of plain, so I've always wanted to do something like that.
I know!
They say peace is best.
But too much peace is boring.
So you agree, Futagawa-san...
What do you think, Yamaguchi-san?
As long as it doesn't involve me.
But you are interested, aren't you?
Get back to work.
Welcome.
It's one of the guys who was out front the other day.
Looks like he's just here to shop.
Are you going to wear these yourself?
It's none of your business, old lady.
Ring me up already.
Ring me up, I said!
Are you deaf, old lady?
That's right.
Matsuura-san, I've got a request.
Anything you want, Keiji!
Do you want me to
dress up all sexy and distract some riders?
Not at all.
I want you to find the address of one of these thugs.
One of my students?
Yeah. I'll send you something describing him later.
Can you do it?
Well, yeah.
But you've gotta go on a date with me later.
Fine.
Okay, get it for me by Saturday night.
Okay!
He's my target this weekend.
Maeda-san.
No phone calls during work.
Sorry.
Date: 2012/06/23 From: Matsuura Sub: Here's the address! ♥ It's Matsuura. I think that is Kudou from my class 2-B.
Kudou from 2-B, huh?
This address is near where I went three weeks ago.
To: Sub: Att:
The Date (None)
When?
Keiji
Sending
Even kabukimono have rules.
That goes for kabukimono in this era, too.
Let's go, Matsukaze!
No.
Not her, either.
What am I doing?
Even if the Saturday Night Rider actually came, so what?
But you are interested, aren't you?
Hey, that hurt, miss.
What?
You ran into me!
That hurts when you say that, really.
Come with me.
What are you doing?!
Stop!
Let me go! Let me go!
Stop!
Somebody!
Somebody help me!
Somebody! Somebody!
Somebody save me...
What are you doing?
When I said I wanted to go someplace private,
you nodded, right?
I did not!
They really do need to be lively like you, or it's no fun.
We can play tag for a little while longer, miss!
Why?
Why is this happening to me?
Why me?
Nobody's here.
And even if they were, they wouldn't help you.
You understand, right, miss?
That's right.
Nobody helped me on the way here.
Nobody cares about anybody but themselves.
You can run, but don't struggle.
You don't want to get hurt, do you?
What's he saying?
But I can't do anything.
Nobody will save me!
They won't save me!
Got you!
Now stay still.
No! Stop!
I wondered why Matsukaze told me to go this way.
So this was why.
I lost control for a second and hit him,
but I don't think he's dead.
But he won't be able to move for a while, so don't worry, miss.
Thank you.
Thank Matsukaze.
He's the one who told me to save you.
Matsukaze? Is there somebody else here?
No, he's my bike.
He told me you were in trouble.
Your bike did?
You can talk with your bike?
Well, just kinda.
I'm sure if you rode, you would understand.
I think I hate myself.
I've been so serious, even though I don't really mean to.
And my employees hate me...
I was so serious today, and nobody came to save me!
Then it's simple.
Live how you want to.
That's right.
It's strange.
I've never been this open to a person I've just met.
It's like I'm not myself.
Everyone's more open when Matsukaze's around.
What's your name?
The Saturday Night Rider.
That's enough, right?
By the way, can I have a little of your time?
I want to finish something.
Huh?
Kudou
Hey.
Wha—
Who are you?!
Hey, you awake, Kudou-kun?
What is this?
Who are you?
The Saturday Night Rider.
The one who destroyed the Sanctuary?
That makes this fast.
But what did I do to you?
Tragic. So tragic.
A young man who doesn't even understand what he's done wrong.
So what did I do?
If you don't know, then I'll tell you!
Look at this pure white underwear!
Are you a pervert?
Even after seeing this pure white underwear, you don't understand?
Of course not!
A kabukimono must wear white underwear!
Underwear is the last piece of clothing you wear in your life.
It's just like the clothes you wear when you're dead.
Maybe, but is that enough reason to come to my house?
And in the middle of the night?!
It's my job as your elder
to teach you modern kabukimono the rules.
Right?
Kudou-kun.
If you're not going to change your ways,
I'll be back next week.
Got it?
Okay.
Good.
So that's why the guys you go after never say anything.
Well, most men would be too embarrassed to say anything.
Yeah.
Um... will we see each other again?
Matsukaze will bring me to you when the time comes.
Okay.
What happened?
I don't have a clue. Yeah.
By the way, what color is your underwear?
My underwear?
I've always worn white.
I see.
I think you and I can be friends.
Yes.
So next time, it's the Silver Hornet, Sugitani Zenjibou?
Next time on Sengoku Collection: "Silver Hornet."
Listen. When you're ready to watch it,
wear white underwear!
