One sunny morning...
Early bird I'm the early bird!
Man! It feels good to get to school really early.
Actually, my alarm clock went off an hour early.
Heh...
So, anyway... Good morning!
I'm Sorry I'm sorry.
I'm Sorry
When did I get to America?
Good morning, Kobayashi!
We both got up early this morning, didn't we?
How can you be so casual about this, Mika-Sensei?!
We're in the States! How did we get to America?!
Come on. What are you saying, Kobayashi?
I'm Sorry
I'm sorry.
Look, Kobayashi. The sky in America is also blue.
I'm getting sleepy from my jetlag.
Maybe that has to do with getting up too early.
What are those two doing?
You'd think they'd realize that he's probably an exchange student.
Nice to meet you!
My name's Anthony M. Chamberlain!
Episode 14: The Exchange Student and Okitsu, the Dark City
Is that ever a relief!
I thought it was strange that I'd suddenly ended up in America.
Most people wouldn't think that way.
So? I hear you were just as baffled as she was, Mika-Sensei.
Well...
So what was it about Japan that interested you...
...enough to come as an exchange student?
Actually...
I'm fascinated by Japanese culture.
Literature
Like Japanese literature?
No!
Manga Manga, Anime, figurines...
Manga Anime Manga, Anime, figurines...
Manga Anime Figurines Manga, Anime, figurines...
Manga Anime Figurines Games ... pretty girl games, Akihabara!
Manga Anime Figurines Games Akiba ... pretty girl games, Akihabara!
I can't get enough of that!
Japanese culture is the best for otakus like me!
Yeah, otaku! Yeah, otaku!
Moe girl characters are the best!
I guess he's not very serious.
Well, he did choose to come here.
Scribble, scribble...
It sounds like you've got a lot in common with Watabe.
Scribble, scribble...
You like girls in cat ears as well?
Cat Ears You like girls in cat ears as well?
Actually, I'm more into rabbit ears.
Look! "USA" is like "USA-gi" for rabbit.
USA (usagi = rabbit) Look! "USA" is like "USA-gi" for rabbit.
What's with this guy?
Who knows? Maybe it's some kind of American joke?
So, you like girls in rabbit ears.
What sort of thing are you into, Kitagawa?
I love the Lolita look.
Loli I love the Lolita look.
Older Type In the older type.
Oh, Mika-Sensei!
Yes, Mika-Sensei!
Um...
Up close, you're a real Japanese beauty!
Japanese Beauty
Uh, you really think so?
Japanese Beauty Just like a kokeshi doll!
Kokishi Just like a kokeshi doll!
Kokishi I see!
This here is Kudo.
What I like is Suetake.
Oh! Then this must be a case of "Boy's Love".
Boy's Love Oh! Then this must be a case of "Boy's Love".
So, which one of you is making all the moves?
Suetake X Kudo Kudo X Suetake So, which one of you is making all the moves?
Suetake X Kudo Kudo X Suetake
We'll get there later.
Hello?
How about we cut out that kind of talk?
So, did your family come to Japan with you?
Unfortunately, I'm here by myself.
But I do have pictures with me.
This is my little sister Susan.
Uh, how old is your little sister?
She'll be 14 this year.
14 Years Old She'll be 14 this year.
14 Years Old
She's only 14 and has a body like that?!
Well, Mika-Sensei has a body like this and she's 27!
27 Years Old Well, Mika-Sensei has a body like this and she's 27!
27 Years Old
That's amazing, too!
Don't be so quick to agree.
Well, your Japanese sure is good.
Impressed Well, your Japanese sure is good.
Where did you study it?
Where else? From Japanese anime!
Yeah, I should've known.
But those dubbed versions don't quite convey the same "moe".
Sob, sob And the translations in the subtitled versions are kind of weak.
Sob, sob
He's talking like Watabe.
Must be a universal language.
Your drawings are amazing, Watabe!
Scribble, scribble...
How are you able to draw such incredible moe characters?
Work Hard
I work hard. That's what it all boils down to.
As long as you're passionate about the moe...
...you'll become good at it!
He who loves the moe will improve Like, "He who loves the moe will improve"?
He who loves the moe will improve
Watabe...!
Anthony...!
So, Nakayama! We've got a new member!
Way to go, Watabe!
Where did he come from, anyway?
So this is how it goes, huh?
I never knew...
...that there're Anime otakus over in America.
The fan base is growing in numbers, too.
But I'm already glad that I came to Japan.
In America, otakus like us still don't have any civil rights.
Well, Japan isn't exactly otaku paradise either.
We get persecuted here as well.
If there was such a thing as an Otaku Control Law...
Banned If there was such a thing as an Otaku Control Law...
Banned ...you two could be in trouble.
You're late!
Apologies.
It took me a while to pick an outfit.
Ta-daa! Ta-daa!
Well, never mind.
So? Where're the goods?
Hold it!
Wh-Who is that?!
Kobayashi! Sorry, but that's as far as you get!
I-It's Manga Enforcement Agency Supervisor Eliot Mika!
But how did you find out about this place?!
We heard that there was a man wearing a dress under his coat...
... headed this way.
And the only one...
... in Okitsu who fits the bill is you, the illicit manga dealer Jyoji Seki.
Wow, sounds like I'm getting famous!
This isn't the time to be flattered! Let's run for it!
You really screwed up, Kobayashi.
Whose fault do you think it is?!
Aww, come on! I just wanted to read manga!
I feel kind of bad for her...
It's okay, Supervisor.
Remember that in Okitsu to draw, read...
...and deal in manga is against the law!
That's right.
We still have to bring down the manga kingpin Al Watabe.
So we can't go easy on anyone.
Pull yourself together, Supervisor.
Right...
What? Kobayashi and Seki were busted?
Eliot Mika got them.
Damn that annoying Eliot Mika!
If only she weren't around...
... I'd be able to sell more of my illicit manga!
Scribble, scribble...
And I'd be able to sell way more of my manga work as well.
Scribble, scribble...
Well, I wouldn't be sure of that.
Nothing to worry about, Watabe.
Scribble, scribble...
Eliot Mika is basically a weak leader.
Scribble, scribble...
She couldn't do anything without her underlings.
You have a plan?
Yes.
I know a good hit man.
The target is...
What? I'm just getting to the good part.
Mr. Kudo! I have a parcel for you!
Hang on. I'm opening the door.
I've come for your heart.
Love at first sight!
How cruel...
Kudo!
By the time I got word and rushed over here...
... it was already too late.
Oh! Suetake! Suetake!
He's been totally mutilated.
Who would do such a thing?
Must be a hit man sent by Al Watabe.
Al Watabe...
We've got to get right on the investigation, Supervisor!
I'm sure if we dig around a little, we'll be able to find that hit man!
Yeah.
And we'll make him pay for what he did to Kudo!
No!
Our priority here is to fight the war on manga!
I'm sure that's what Kudo would have wanted.
Suetake...!
Arf, arf, arf...!
Wh-What's your problem?!
Arf, arf, arf...!
Excuse me.
Uh, no!
Supervisor.
There are two manga in here!
Is that a manga?
Uh, no! This is...
Hands up! Up with your manga!
What's going on, Iincho?!
We put a hit on Kudo...
...and Eliot Mika is cracking down tougher than ever now!
I can keep on drawing, but I can't sell any of my work!
Not to worry, Watabe.
I've got a big deal in the works.
We'll make back everything we've lost.
I hope you're right.
We've got trouble, Boss!
Eliot Mika and her people have surrounded the place!
What?!
Nakamura...
...are you sure that Al Watabe's hideout is around here?
Yeah.
I got the information from a few different sources.
And this would be the ideal place to hide.
Supervisor!
We found the entrance to their hideout!
What? Where?
K-Kitagawa...
We'll be all right, won't we? No ghosts or anything, right?
It's Al Watabe we're after here, not ghosts.
Then, let's do it!
This is Eliot Mika of the Manga Enforcement Agency!
Al Watabe!
You're under arrest for drawing and distributing manga!
Empty...
What the...?!
Empty...
This isn't right.
Empty...
There's no manga anywhere.
Welcome, Supervisor.
I've heard a lot about your exploits.
Al Watabe...
Al Watabe, where did you hide the manga?
That's a funny thing to say.
I'm a respectable citizen.
Why would a law-abiding man like me possess illegal manga?
Forget it.
In fact, go ahead and search the next room if you want.
I have nothing to hide.
What's going on?
He must've had a back-up plan.
You still plan on arresting me, Supervisor?
Al Watabe! Look at this!
A brand new manga which I created myself!
Well, then, Al Watabe!
I take pride and joy in being arrested!
Al Watabe, I'll get you by the tail one of these days.
Assuming there's a tail you can get hold of.
I'm off!
I'll make arrangements for her bail.
No. Let her sit in the slammer for a while.
I'll be able to get some work done.
Man, it's no good.
I can't find a single shred of evidence linking Al Watabe...
...to any manga transactions.
Don't give up, Old Man.
As long as Al's free...
... manga will continue to pour onto the streets of Okitsu.
And he won't be paying for what he did to Kudo.
Suetake!
Supervisor, I got something!
What's up, Tominaga?
I was closely tracking the movements...
...of Al Watabe and Iincho...
...when I came across a major character.
That's...
The most devout of manga readers...
...Anthony?
That's right.
If Al Watabe is the kingpin among manga drawers...
...Anthony is the kingpin among readers.
Who would've suspected a connection between them?
It makes sense now.
We've been steadily disrupting the smaller distribution routes.
So it's become necessary for the two kingpins to deal...
...directly with one another.
Well done, Kitagawa!
This makes it easy, then.
So? Where and when is the transaction going to be?
Six in the evening, in three days.
At Central Station.
Anthony?
Yes. That's right.
The great Master Al Watabe! I read your manga all the time!
It's a pleasure to meet you, Anthony.
Let's get on with the transaction.
Well, it looks like a done deal.
Freeze, you two!
It's Eliot Mika!
How did you find us here?!
Al Watabe! You're not getting away this time!
That manga in your briefcase is indisputable proof!
Give yourselves up!
No...!
Guns?!
Ta-Daa!
Manga!
Come on, take a good look!
Then you'll be as guilty as us!
Look! Right here!
Come on! Look!
That's not fair, Iincho!
Damn it! They've got us!
You know, I'm starting to think we must look pretty ridiculous.
Don't let yourself go there.
You two! Get out of here now!
All right!
I'm counting on you!
Supervisor! Al Watabe is escaping!
We'll deal with the situation here!
You go after Al Watabe!
Right!
No, I won't let you go! Look! Look!
Nakamura!
Just go, Supervisor!
Give it up, Al Watabe!
What crime have I committed? I only wanted to...
I only wanted to draw manga!
Supervisor, please give us a moment.
If I'm going to be arrested...
... I want to at least read Master Watabe's latest before I go.
Full of moe, moe!
That's not possible!
Is it really that funny?
Of course it is!
You guys!
You wouldn't believe how funny Al Watabe's manga is!
This is like the best!
Huh?
What?!
And so I have this to declare.
Reading a lot of manga is fun!
As such, I am hereby repealing the Manga Control Law...
...effective immediately!
You are free to draw and read manga!
Have your fill!
Have as much of it as you want!
Miss Kitagawa. Any comment?
Look this way, Miss Tominaga.
Old Man, what do you think of the repeal?
Why don't you draw us in a manga strip...
...and have yourselves a laugh.
Hello!
Hey!
The law has been overturned so how come I'm still stuck in here?!
Scribble, scribble... Stick, stick... Paste, paste...
Come on! Why?!
Scribble, scribble... Stick, stick... Paste, paste...
Supervisor! Stop messing around and get inking.
Scribble, scribble... Stick, stick... Paste, paste...
Yeah! We need some screen tone, too.
Scribble, scribble... Stick, stick... Paste, paste...
I didn't have many lines this time!
Get me out of here!
Kitagawa!
Tominaga!
