Was it caused by a landslide?!
Regarding the missing and the casualties from this landslide...
That was a landslide?
Scary.
It's a UFO!
I wonder if that really was just an accident...
If it was an accident, then there should be no need to investigate, right?
It's a UFO landing!
Come on, stop kidding around!
But, don't you guys think it's strange?!
If it was a mere accident, why can't we go there?!
There has to be something there that they don't want us to see, no doubt about it!
Geez...
That what you get when you watch too much of those cheap TV shows.
Senkawa-kun.
Ah, I'm just going out for a little walk.
Birdy, what was that?
I’m not sure yet.
That’s definitely not just a landslide incident.
Still, why did you suddenly go out last night?
I felt a strange vibration.
A strange vibration?
Well, I guess over here you'll call it a 'gut feeling'.
This is terrible.
I already said you can't.
Come on, just a little bit.
Please.
Geez, how did you even get this far?
You sure made some effort getting past the police blockade.
Still, from here onwards you are absolutely not allowed to pass.
The village is completely sealed.
Just cut me some slack here. Come on, just a tiny bit.
No way, no way.
Keep it up, and we'll arrest you for interfering with police work!
Aww, don't say things like that.
Come on, get in the car. We'll drop you off at the police blockade.
Ah, shit.
Hey, you!
Tsutomu!
Wait, what're you--
Thank goodness, you're still alive!
I was terrified after seeing what happened on TV and rushed here right away!
What are you talking about?!
Man, you saved me. I can't thank you enough.
Barbecue.
You're going to treat me next time.
Uh, can we make do with just udon?
I can just yell it out, you know.
"I have nothing to do with this person."
Fine, I got it.
By the way, Senkawa... why are you here?
A friend's villa is nearby.
A friend's villa?
Hehe.
Eh!?
Why is Muroto-san here?!
I just, uh... bumped into him.
Wassup!
You still didn't have to drag him here.
Hayamiya! Don't you have any compassion to help a senpai in distress?
Sure, I do. If it’s Sanada-san, I’d help out anytime.
Who's that?
Apparently he's a senpai, uh...
Muroto. Muroto Keisuke. 23 years old.
Don’t give us that senpai talk!
Suddenly barging in like that, he's a piece of trouble isn't he, Nakasugi?
Well, he might make things a bit livelier.
TL Notes: Senpai = Senior, Kouhai = Junior.
To have such a kind-hearted kouhai, kinda proves my calibre, eh?
Happiness, happiness.
You really like this, don't you.
Whenever it's bath time you're always yelling 'Switch! Switch!'
This feels way better than being in a bio-healing tank.
What are you gonna do if someone sees you?
No worries. Everybody’s busy listening to Muroto-san's jabbering.
Then, this was the UFO that I shot last time.
Whoa! I knew UFOs really existed!
Awesome, isn't it?
Awesome!
Idiots, UFO pictures are all fake.
Hayamiya, you don't believe in them?
Of course not.
Hey, let's go for a walk, Nakasugi.
Let's all go together when Senkawa-kun finishes bathing.
Eh?
So you mean I'm getting in the way?
Come on, I never meant it like that.
Okay, okay, I get it.
Hayamiya...
I'm heading out for some night breeze by myself.
Geez.
She's making it so obvious.
Ah, it's so cool... then again it's actually quite cold.
Ah,... I'm so high.
Eh?
Hold it!
What the hell, Hayamiya!
Don't look, go away!
Sorry!
Man, don't peep!
That was weird... am I exhausted or something?
So much for letting our guard down.
Sayaka!
Grandpa!
Are you alright, Sayaka?
Yes, everyone's perfectly fine.
Master!
Oh, Yoshie is alright, too.
Isn't that great, Chairman?
Nice to meet you, Sayaka-san.
I am Satyajit Shyamalan.
Your grandfather always looked out for me.
Shyamalan-san.
It's Satyajit Shyamalan!
Wow, he's a friend of Nakasugi's grandfather?
Come now, don't treat me like some kind of celebrity. The media loves to overhype things.
But then, someday all the hype will go away.
For sure.
Despite being a famous guy, he doesn't talk like one.
Just a weird guy, isn't he?
I was on a business trip when I bumped into your grandfather.
So I decide to come with him.
I see. Just as your grandfather said, you really are a beautiful young lady.
Nice to meet you.
Come now, please come inside.
I'm honoured.
Satyajit Shyamalan?
Come in.
Oh, Hayamiya. What's up?
Are you visiting your much-hated senpai?
I'm just a curious kouhai wondering why a much-hated senpai suddenly appears here out of the blue.
It's about the Sawajiri village incident isn't it?
Speaking of which, didn't the landslide occur somewhere near here?
I feel that it's strange.
The news is hiding something too.
You want to confirm it with your own eyes?
I want everyone to know the truth!
There might not be anyone who's interested in the truth, you know?
Humans, you see, they only believe in the things that they want to see and the things they want to know.
I don't think that's true!
No, maybe it's just as what Muroto-senpai says.
But, I still want to understand the truth and tell it to everyone.
Geez.
There was a time when I once thought like that, too.
I'm organizing various newspaper articles and news broadcasts in chronological order.
Wanna help me out?
Yes, I do!
Beautiful! Such unrivalled beauty!
The god of destruction has descended upon this land.
This is the power of the Ryunka.
In order to bestow a verdict upon humanity, it has come to this Earth!
Amazing! This feeling is amazing!
Mr. Shyamalan, if you don't wear the hazard suit...
If something happened to you...
I am one of the Chosen.
It can't be! A survivor?!
Behold, from the center of the Ryunka's path of destruction, this child has been chosen!
This child is proof of the Ryunka's power.
I shall raise this child.
Make the necessary arrangements so that I may adopt this child.
Mr. Shyamalan!
Hurry and look for traces of the Ryunka.
Keep the police and the media quiet for now.
TL Notes: Ondine is a water nymph without a soul, from European folklore.
Ondine.
What's going on, Birdy?
I'm a little curious.
Eh.. what are they doing?
They don't look like any police or rescue team.
They must be investigating the Ryunka.
The Ryunka?
Yes.
But then, you don't know if it was even the Ryunka in the first place.
Then again, who would do such a thing?
The Invisible Death.
Extraordinary things happen on planets that hold extraordinary weapons.
Wouldn't it be weird if there were two that were created?
That's true.
We need to investigate if anyone is holding the Ryunka.
Who's there?
They spotted us!
Huh?
Shit!
Muroto-san!
Muroto-senpai, are you alright?
Senpai.
Run.
Don't ask, hurry up and run!
Senpai!
Found them! Over there!
Run, Hayamiya!
But--
Never mind, hurry!
Hey, I'm here, over here!
Damn it, I better run too.
Don't let him escape!
Did we get him?
I don't know, we better check.
Why the hell are they carrying guns?
This is definitely no joke.
Senpai.
There she is.
Dispose of her.
What the hell is this?!
Don't point toy guns at me!
What? An alien?
Those weapons are useless against me.
But, it still hurts a bit!
Hurry, fire!
I actually brought a high school girl to such a dangerous place.
I'm such an idiot!
You...
Take her and escape quickly.
I'll keep them busy.
Arita Shion.
Ah! The girl in the bathroom!
She's there!
Hurry up and find her!
It's okay now.
I think Hayamiya has already escaped.
Yeah, in that case, let's capture someone and--
What?
Birdy Cephon, I will not let you interfere.
Who the hell is she?
Damn!
This bitch!
You...
I am Ondine.
Birdy Cephon, I will kill you.
She...
What the hell is she?
Probably...
You will not escape.
Here she comes!
Are you okay, Birdy?
She’s ridiculously strong!
It's a real combat marionette!
It's not from this planet.
Then...
Here she comes.
Even the Ixiora biological shield cannot protect you from this.
Die.
Birdy!
Cut it...
OUT ALREADY!
Are you alright, Birdy?
Ah... ow ow, my hair got ripped out.
Birdy Cephon!
You can never underestimate a Federal Investigator's abilities.
Where's your guardian?
My guardian?
Don't play dumb, you're the Altarian from that time.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Taking away an important piece of evidence...
What you should be doing is not fighting marionettes,
but finding the Ryunka, right?
I knew it, you’re...
From the looks of it, you don’t even know what the Ryunka is.
As a comrade, I shall tell you one thing.
The Ryunka lies within humans and grows with them.
Damn, IT HURTS!
I can't let that guy go!
You're overdoing it, Birdy.
Your body is all messed up.
And that guy looked pretty strong, too.
Next time I see him, I'm definitely kicking his ass!
Ondine was defeated?
That Gomez... after all his big talk.
No, her opponent was too strong.
What, is that your friend?
That Federal Investigator.
Birdy the Berserker Killer?
We're not friends.
You are my only friend.
Just a bit longer.
I'll give you the Ryunka soon.
If it's in your hands, its potential might be fully realized.
I can control the Ryunka.
Why would she...
Birdy, switch with me.
Are you sure?
Hurry!
Ouch!
I told you, it hurts.
There's a limit to how much pain you can take, you know.
Senkawa-kun?
Nakasugi-san.
What’s wrong?
What about yourself? Why are you here?
Huh? Where am I?
We're in the mountains.
But I was... supposed to be sleeping in my room.
Why am I in the mountains?
I'd like to ask you that.
Could it be that you were looking for me?
What? Um... Ye-Yeah.
And got injured because of that?
No, this is...
I-I’m sorry.
Anyway, let’s get back before everyone starts worrying.
Just a bit more, you can do it.
Ugh, I can't...
Hehe, isn't it great to be young?
Yes, I apologize, Ondine was...
Yes.
There's no need to keep her around Shyamalan any longer.
This is Arita Shion de arimasu~
A lot of terrible things happened at Nakasugi-san’s villa.
And now, Tsutomu-kun and Birdy-san are starting to wonder about Nakasugi-san de arimasu~
And then Tsutomu-kun is going on a date with Nakasugi-san on his last day of summer break!
Kya-wawa~
Tsutomu-kun is so happy.
But... however... how could this be!~
I wonder...
