According to rumors among the other kids,
many cases of pets going missing
have been occurring in Daikoku City recently.
What's that?
Fog!
It's fog, Yuko!
That's the fog that comes out whenever a Space breaks.
"Space" refers to a cyberspace
It's kind of a bad omen, just now since we're moving.
We'll be arriving at Daikoku shortly. Daikoku.
Oh no!
Please make sure you don't forget any of your belongings on board.
Let's get off!
We'll be arriving at Daikoku shortly. Daikoku.
Here, Kyoko!
Here you go, Densuke!
Come on, Kyoko, let's hurry!
It's here.
Come on...
Just enter the cat.
Crap! I was so close...
Mom...
We're at Daikoku Station now.
Why aren't you here yet?
Sorry, sorry.
The company driver took a wrong turn.
You've been here before, so you know the way home, right?
Granny is waiting for you, so go on ahead.
Eh? But...
A taxi...
Well, if we really have to...
Geez...
I don't even get along well with Granny.
There's not a taxi in sight yet...
Poop!
Stop saying "poop"!
It's so embarrassing!
Do something! Tell Densuke to do something!
Something?
Let me see...
Okay, Densuke.
Back handspring!
Poop!
K-Kyoko!
Wait up!
I... I'm sorry!
Kyoko!
I said to wait up! Where did you get off to?
Kyoko!
You can't just do as you please!
Poop!
I wonder what that is.
I can't believe it's real poo—
Oh, it's okay.
It's a cybersubstance.
There's more over there.
A huge poop!
What is this thing?
Is it evaporating?
Densuke, is there a help file?
So there isn't...
Could it be an illegal cybersubstance?
W-Wait!
There it is! It's a cybercat!
Its name is...
Hepburn?
What a weird name.
Hey!
Hold it right there, cat!
Hey!
What are you doing to my quarry?!
Oh. Fumie.
I was asked to capture it before you were!
Yeah, but I'm the one who started the business!
Hepburn...
Hepburn!
Just where did they run off to?
Densuke!
Kyoko!
What a mess...
Densuke?
Gotcha!
Alright!
I got you now.
Oh, it's a cybercat.
How deceptive.
Hepburn!
Hey!
Who are you?
And what are you doing to my quarry?
It's rude to grab other people's quarries just as they're...
Anyway, you must be a friend of Daichi!
Wh-What are you...
Give it back!
That's my quarry!
If you don't, I'll give you a hard time!
I-I don't know what you're talking about!
Who's Daichi?
Oh, so you're a noob.
Come on, hand it over!
How much?
So how much do you want?
C'mon, I don't have all day.
So,
how's this?
200 meta! More than enough, right?
Well?
What do you think you're doing with my quarry?
H-He's here!
Okay, it's a deal!
Why you...!
Hey, wait!
Wait!
Cyberinvestigation?
Densuke!
Kyoko!
Where are they?
That's right!
I have a tracking system.
There we go.
Good, they're nearby.
Densuke!
That's odd...
It should be around here—
S-Stay back!
What is that?
I'll hit you if you come any closer!
D-D-D...
Don't come any closer!
Densuke!
Densuke...
Densuke!
Oh no!
Densuke...
This is awful.
What should I do?
Oh yeah...
I'll do it
one more time!
It's no good.
Sis!
Kyoko.
Where's Densuke?
Well...
Densuke?
He's not here...
What happened to him?
I can hear Densuke's barking coming from somewhere around here.
Where is he?
Densuke!
This is the Support Center.
All of our lines are currently busy.
Please stay on the line, or dial again at a later time.
Yuko!
Yuko.
Come upstairs.
It's a present from Grandpa.
That poor little girl...
Of all things, for him to die so suddenly...
Now that he finally had a granddaughter...
It's so cute!
I love you!
Oh yeah!
Coil Cyberinvestigation Agency...
We look for missing pets.
Aren't you getting in?
Densuke is missing.
I'll go look for him.
I want to go too!
No way!
She's not here yet?
A UFO?
Nowadays?
Hey boss!
So we meet again.
Quiet.
Don't move.
There've been a lot more Kyuu-chans lately.
"Kyuu-chans"?
You've never heard of 'em?
They're "Kyuu-chans" because they're spherical.
Kyuu means sphere.
So what's the assignment?
My pet has entered a wall.
There was a hole there,
but it disappeared right after.
Um...
My name is Yuko Okonogi.
Nice to me—
I'm Fumie Hashimoto.
Nice to meet you too.
This Space is so obsolete.
The price is 200 meta, okay?
Meta?
What're meta?
What? You don't even know what a meta-bug is?
Remember? It's like the one I gave you earlier.
Yeah, that one!
That one will do just fine.
So tell me more about how it went through the wall.
Well, it was following a strange, black, living creature...
What?!
Yes.
That's right...
That's right.
She said she spotted an illegal.
Understood, Megabar.
Is it really all right to come in like this?
This fog...
We'd better get moving.
Pick that up for a sec.
This obsolete Space was supposed to have been abandoned some time ago.
If he's really inside,
it might be dangerous.
Especially for a modern pet like him.
What do you mean?
If a pet is in a Space of a different version,
its body gets weaker.
W-Weaker?
It won't die right away.
Step back for a sec.
Scan!
Can you really save Densuke like this?
Just you watch.
Wh-What's that?!
Kuro bug spray.
They sell it in Megasia.
Megasia?
It's the name of a dagashi store.
Dagashi is a popular Japanese sweet.
First of all, we open a hole like this.
But we'll be in big trouble if Satchii finds us...
Satchii?
You don't even know who Satchii is?
It's a big, red thing
with four things here...
You really don't know anything.
I just got here from Kanazawa.
Oh?
Maybe there are no Satchii in Kanazawa.
Hold this for a sec.
It's a cyberfishing rod.
They sell it in Megasia.
And now this...
The key player for this mission.
Your pet?
It's not a pet!
It's my servant. It's pretty old, so I call it Oyaji.
Oyaji also means old man
Is this also from Megasia?
They don't sell this.
It's very polite.
Time to work, Oyaji!
So next we slap a meta-tag on it.
And now it has increased protection.
Get in there right now, Oyaji!
This isn't a school trip, you know.
If the black thing you saw really was an illegal,
the Kyuu-chans will hone in on it in no time.
What do you mean, illegal?
It's a newly invented computer virus.
I heard that when it takes over a pet it can be dangerous.
Any luck?
It's gone deeper than I thought.
I'll try to ask how it's going.
Hello, this is Fumie.
Can you hear me, Oyaji? Over.
Oyaji!
Oyaji, make some sound. Over.
Oyaji.
Oyaji, make a sound.
Well, how's it going?
It's bigger than I thought.
Indeed, this obsolete Space is like a labyrinth.
I wish we could pinpoint them more easily...
Oh no!
What's that?
It's a Kyuu-chan!
It usually takes them a lot longer!
What do we do?
Change of plans!
Don't tell me you want to abandon him!
Those guys shoot at kuro bugs and pets without any distinction!
We have no choice but to withdraw for now!
But...!
Okay, let's go!
Wait!
If we're shot, we're gonna be in big trouble!
Please... Please wait just a little longer!
Densuke.
What's wrong?
What are you...?
What's up with you?
It's not here.
Hey, what are you doing?
Not here either.
Here!
I'm sure it's around here!
Hurry!
Hurry up, Oyaji!
Hurry!
Here it comes!
Densuke!
Damn you!
Run for it!
What is it now?
In the end...
Satchii has come, too!
What...
What on earth is going on in this town?!
