"Ruins are the Final Frontier!! A Man's Dream!!! Join Us, Comrades!!!!"
"Map of the Stars"
Our poster didn't help at all!
We still only have three people in our Ruins Exploration Club!
We're at risk of extinction here!
We have to plot our strategy over summer break!
I'm not in the Ruins Exploration Club...
Senkawa!
Don't you feel any responsibility for getting us hooked on ruins
when we kept your gloomy ass company in junior high?
It's not my fault.
How about we make a promo video or something?
We can put some music over images of abandoned buildings.
- Video? - Whoa, good idea!
We could make it on my PC.
That's it! But the problem is money.
Huh?
There aren't any abandoned buildings nearby that a newbie would love!
So, train fare and hostel fare?
Yes! Filming takes time. We can't do it all in one day!
You don't have to make something that hard-core...
Fool!
This is life-or-death for our club! Obviously we have to give it our all!
I told you, I'm not in the club...
Senkawa! You bastard, I can't believe you!
Um...
Nakasugi, I didn't know you were here.

Well, hello, Mr. Hoity-Toity.
It's not like I'm asking to take a luxury cruise around the world...
And while you're out fooling around,
I'm supposed to take care of the house all by myself?
Cleaning, taking out the trash, grocery shopping, all of it?
"Ruins Club Summer Trip" "Sawajiri Village" Cleaning, taking out the trash, grocery shopping, all of it?
Who do you think you are?! It's not like I asked you to come back here!
It's my summer vacation!
I don't want to spend it in my stuffy apartment,
I want to spend it in our big, comfy home sweet home!
It's a universal human feeling!
What's the big deal? It's just three days.
Is that any way to ask for a favor?
I'm on my summer vacation too, you know...
Hey!
Please, oh wonderful sister.
"Wonderful sister," my butt.
Pretty please?
Well, I guess...
Sis!
In return, you get to take out all the trash and buy all the groceries
for the rest of summer break.
I'll let you off of laundry duty.
Stupid Hazumi... She always holds things over me...
You have no choice. You want to go on the trip, right?
Of course I do! It's an invitation from Nakasugi!
Uh-oh, he's got hormone rush to the max.
Don't call it a "hormone rush"!
Is this really all right?
Sayaka says she wants to go.
There's nothing to worry about if you'll be with her.
If you say so, Sir...
Sayaka's finally gotten well. Please, let her do what she likes.
Yes, Sir...
That damn traitor Hazawa...
When we get back I'm gonna discipline him but good!
Oh, get over it. Sudou and Chigira came.
Yeah. He was lucky to win a ticket for that Akihabara concert.
Well, I lost! And that moron won without me!
Okay, okay. Might as well have fun while we're here, all right?
Yep. Ryo's right.
Kazu, take a shot of Nakasugi. She'll make a good picture.
- Hey Hayamiya! Get up! - Kitamura wanted to come, but...
Huh?
We're going to shoot footage of Nakasugi. You're in the way.
What's that supposed to mean?
The pretty girl by the window makes a good shot.
Now scram.
I'm a pretty girl, too!
Go on, shoot. I'll let you request a pose.
Roll 'em, Kazu. Keep the megalomaniac girl out of the frame.
Hmph!
Hello, this is Yoshie Suzuki.
This is Sayaka. We just got to the station.
Can you make lunch for us? We're all starving.
Shall I send a car for you now, Miss?
No, that's okay, we'll take the bus.
The bus?
Yep! Okay, I'll see you later.
There's nothing here. Not even a convenience store!
Yeah... It's so quiet.
It's almost scary.
Is that it, Nakasugi?
Oh, that's right, I remember now.
It was a nice hotel when I was little,
but it had a slump quite a while ago and went out of business.
Its big selling point was the hot spring,
but the government built a highway on the other side of the mountain,
and people stopped coming after that.
Now that's a nice abandoned building!
It's captivating my male heart!
Captivating! Captivating! Captivating! Captivating!
Shut up!
Got any more spuds, Auntie?
"Spuds"?
Oh, he means potato chips.
Ah! If that's what ya want, I'll get some from the back.
Upsy-daisy... Wait just one minute!
I'm sorry, but please do hurry, or we'll miss the bus.
Not to worry, the bus'll wait for ya if we ask 'em to.
We'll take a dozen cup ramen too, please!
Sure!
Sorry, Hayamiya.
Hmm?
For making you fret about me.
I'm not doing that.
You look all worried about me every time I wipe sweat off my face.
Well, hey, they're all guys,
so they don't have the delicacy to be considerate of others.
This is super-heavy.
Pipe down. I split the bags fair and square!
Ryo, don't fight.
But I think I'm okay. I'm actually feeling pretty light on my feet.
So don't worry.
Wow, you really did get stronger, huh Nakasugi!
Yes! We're here! We're on the scene!
I told you to pipe down!
Look over there. That's our vacation home.
We're going to walk all the way there?
Yeah!
Come on, let's go.
You know, when I was little, this village was more lively.
There were lots of kids, too.
Depopulation, huh?
They say all the young people leave.
I haven't been here in seven years either.
Yoshie!
Man, I'm stuffed!
Maybe it's not always a good thing for food to be too tasty.
You could've paced yourself a little. Think about tomorrow!
Says the guy who refilled his bowl three times.
Well, I was eating for two, so...
Two?
I-I only ate enough for two, but Sudou ate enough for three.
That's pretty much the same difference.
That maid looks scary, but she can sure cook!
There's all kinds of uninhabited houses upriver from here!
This place is a treasure trove of ruins!
Let's call Hayamiya and Nakasugi later and play cards or something.
Everybody here? Nakasugi says she's going to show us something neat!
Wow, I can see the whole Milky Way!
Yeah, the air is clear here and there are almost no lights around.
What's that?
My grandfather used to use this for birdwatching. Take a look.
What can you see?
Just try it.
Whoa, that's beautiful!
What is it, Senkawa? Let me see!
Let me see, too!
Shut up!
Show me! Come on, show me!
I'm next.
Let go, you jerk!
- No! - Let go!
- No! - What are you guys, grade schoolers?!
- Sheesh! - What are you guys, grade schoolers?!
But let me see, too!
Me first!
I've never seen such pretty stars.
That was Beta Cygni... Albireo, from the constellation Cygnus.
Do you know a lot about stars?
Well, you know I've been sickly since I was little, right?
So I just naturally came to like looking at the stars.
Huh.
That double star looks close by, but it's actually really far away.
How many kilometers?
It's about 4,000 times further than the Earth is from the Sun,
so maybe around 600 billion kilometers.
600 billion, huh?
C'mon, let me see! C'mon!
- I told you to let go! - Whoa, they're gorgeous!
Cut it out, you two!
Come on! Come on!
Wow.
That was a pretty nice property!
Did you get good footage?
Perfect!
Now, it's time for today's main event, but first...
Here we go, I guess.
No choice, huh?
We did decide on the rule yesterday.
Rock to practice!
Rock, paper, scissors!
And a redo!
Redo! Redo!
Are you liking the books here?
Yeah, they're all great!
The printing and binding on the photo collections are top-notch!
It's really amazing.
You don't like this stuff?
Not so much...
I guess you're not the type to like newspaper photos, huh?
Anyway, let's go downstairs.
Yoshie poured us some cold drinks.
Awesome! I was just getting thirsty.
Hmm, maybe I should have gone with the boys...
That hotel says "keep out," so they'll be in trouble if someone finds them.
I'm sure they made some kind of plan.
Kazu, can you hear me? Hey!
It's fine, Ryo. We've got two antennas.
Okay, I'll let it ring three times. Sound like a good signal?
Sure. Three rings.
If you find something cool, you better show me, too.
I know, I know. See you.
All right, let's explore!
It's a treasure trove of ancient arcade games!
Hey, Chigira, shine some light over here!
Right.
It's like we've gone back in time.
Doesn't all this stuff remind you of a horror movie?
Damn, there's so much good material I don't know what to film!
Chigira! You're in charge of lights for a while!
Yeah, yeah.
Senkawa! Go check out the upstairs! Hurry it up!
Jeez, fine.
Man, why do I have to stand guard?
Crap...
Are you on vacation, kid? I've never seen you before.
This place is practically the definition of "scenic spot," huh?
I mean, what a beautiful village!
Huh?
I wonder if he's onto us.
No! We can't be found yet!
Hey, there he goes.
Safe!
Senkawa, cancel the alert.
I was watching. Sudou wormed out of that pretty nice...
Hey, what's wrong?
Hey, Senkawa! Can you hear me?
Answer me, dammit!
It was a prank, duh!
You could easily make those prints by putting a shoe on a stick.
Maybe so.
But it was kind of shocking, huh?
Maybe it was a ghost.
Huh?
That cop was telling me
that last night, someone heard kids laughing up here.
But there wasn't a soul around.
Stop it, Ryo, I can't handle that stuff.
Sheesh, you're such a scaredy-cat.
Kazu, behind you!
Ghosts are scary!
What's with him?
I'm scared of ghosts! I'm so scared!
Shut the hell up and let go of me, moron!
I'm scared!
Hurry up and awaken, Ryunka.
No, I'm...
You've been reborn, Sayaka. Just like you wished.
Like I... wished?
Of course. That's why the Ryunka chose you.
I've been chosen?
Yes. And you wished for that.
That's why I...
Huh, they're dead.
This one's still alive.
"Ryunka"...
With your help, the Ryunka awakened from its long sleep,
and with the Ryunka's help, you gained a new life.
Ryunka...
Now fly...
...Ryunka.
Quiet, Pooch!
Useless old mutt. Ya eat like a pig, but ya never listen to a word l...
What is this feeling?
Nakasugi?
What are you doing, Birdy? I'm still sleepy, you know...
Then sleep!
C'mon, Birdy, what's up?
Over there?!
What is that?
Just be quiet!
Which way?
Birdy, what the heck is going on?!
Again?
Birdy?
What's?
Birdy?
What is that?
"All Sawajiri-Bound Traffic Blocked" Nagano Prefecture and its employees are putting all their resources
into rescue and investigative efforts,
but because Sawajiri Village is a textbook underpopulated area,
they're having a difficult time securing any means of evacuation.
The government seems to be considering deploying the SDF.
- I wonder if that was the Ryunka. - Work to confirm the number of survivors is not yet underway.
- No doubt about it. - Work to confirm the number of survivors is not yet underway.
I can't imagine there's much of anything else that could do this.
But it's a funny thing...
I thought Geega hadn't succeeded in growing the Ryunka.
But there might be other aliens around, am I right, Mr. Gomez?
The invisible death, eh? Not bad. Not bad at all.
The Ryunka isn't something a man like you can handle.
Want to bet?
I've never once lost a bet.
Yeah, he said he couldn't get through on his cell phone,
so it took him a while to call.
Yeah, a public phone.
It sounds like they were pretty far from ground zero, so he was just fine.
The trains are running, but the police have to interview them,
so they'll be two or three days late coming back.
Let's go! Have a good time!

Shion Arita here, yessiree!
Their precious vacation turned out so awful, Sirs!
So Nakasugi's grandfather gets worried and comes to see them.
What's more, Mr. Shyamalan is with him, yessiree!
It's so mysterious.
Looks like Mr. Shyamalan is up to no good!
And another powerful enemy attacks Birdy!
Plus even Hayamiya and Muroto... eek!
