It bent again?
You've got to stop doing that.
I'm jealous of Ritsu.
What are you talking about?
You have something that I don't.
We still don't have enough of them.
We need more Espers!
It must have been that guy.
Who's that guy wearing a white T-shirt?
I have been looking for you.
You were at the place where the tornado occurred, right?
"Awakening Lab"?
Won't you come to my laboratory and amplify your psychic powers?
A psychic powers laboratory?
Wouldn't you like to obtain
phenomenal power that can't be compared to others'?
You'll be greater than all other Espers.
AWAKENING LAB
Hi.
What is this place?
I have hired experts in neuroscience and neural engineering
to conduct scientific research on psychic powers.
Research on psychic powers?
My father left me his wealth.
He probably didn't want to leave it to me, though.
In any case, I'm using it to conduct research on psychic powers,
and I swear...
I will become an Esper.
Just like you.
I saw the news.
That unnatural phenomenon in Seasoning City was your doing, right?
You also destroyed (LOL).
Actually...
I'm not criticizing you.
I'm simply interested in your power.
There are other Espers here.
-What? -I'll introduce you to them.
These are Daichi and Kaito Shiratori.
When these brothers concentrate together,
they can create a barrier.
See? Isn't that cool?
Ouch, that hurt.
However, it only lasts five seconds.
That is Rei Kurosaki. Her psychic power is...
Ignite!
It lit up!
Did you see that? Did you?
That was Rei's astounding ignition ability.
It's called pyrokinesis.
It's weaker than a dollar-store lighter.
Compared to your powers, yes.
Is this the guy from the news?
I would like to see your power.
-What? -Don't be modest. Show us!
-That's right. -You'll show us, right?
Show us!
I'm not feeling very well today.
Oh, well. He's only here for a visit today.
The next time you're here, please show us your power.
He'll show us.
Right!
GHOSTS ETC. AGENCY
Who are you?
Ekubo...
Ekubo?
I want to become the greatest being among all of creation.
A god!
No. I'm Eh...
Kubo.
I knew it! You're Ekubo!
No! I'm Kubo!
Hey! Mob! What are you doing?
I'm sorry. I know a person that looks just like him.
I mean, a ghost.
You mean I look like a ghost?
Maybe that's why I have no luck.
I always lose at pachinko, horse races, bicycle races, and mahjong.
You're a loser in life.
I'm three million yen in debt, too.
I see.
You must be possessed by some kind of ghost.
Let's exorcise you, shall we?
-This way. -Okay.
You're possessed by the ghost of an old man.
What? My fisherman grandfather?
He was a fisherman?
I see...
I get it now!
Your grandfather's ghost has been calling you to the sea!
TREATMENT ROOM
HELP WANTED: FISHERMEN
Become a fisherman tomorrow and go to sea!
Then you can bet on tuna, bonito, and squid!
You'll escape the world and pay off your debts, too!
Okay! Thank you!
Your fee is 2,800 yen.
I'll pay when I get back.
Okay. But you won't be back for a year!
Oh, well...
I hope he can win at least a little against his bad luck.
Ekubo...
Is Ekubo the runt of a ghost that was following you around?
Yes.
Now that he's gone, I kind of miss him.
The poor thing.
He has been completely destroyed.
Ekubo...
Okay, let's close the office for the day, and go have a good time!
What? Where?
Well, how about a place with pretty women that will give you a good time.
What?
It will relieve your stress.
I know a nice cheap place.
If you're paying for that kind of thing,
aren't you a loser in life too, Master?
REIGEN 55%
If we're done for today, I'm going home.
Okay, but go straight home.
You have been getting in a lot of trouble lately.
My brother Ritsu is worried, too.
It's a problem for me as well.
When I need you for an exorcism, I can't get hold of you.
Oh, then let's turn on our GPS.
What? Will that kind of thing help?
Let me see.
I think it's this and this.
MASTER
Shigeo!
Oh, Tsubomi.
Thank goodness.
What?
Cram school ended late, and I felt anorexic walking home alone.
I think you meant "anxious."
Really?
But, isn't being anorexic better for a girl?
You're already slim enough, Tsubomi.
Really? Thank you!
What a lovely smile!
Could it be...
Tsubomi...
is starting to like me?
Is there something on my face?
What? Oh, no...
Did you hear about White T-Shirt Poison? He's been showing up around here lately.
Is that some kind of ghost?
No, it's not a ghost. He's our school's shadow leader.
Shadow leader?
I heard he's super strong.
Really?
I wonder who it is.
It's scary not knowing who it is.
But...
Yes?
I'll protect you, Tsubomi.
-Ouch! -What?
Get out of my way!
Oh, I'm sorry...
-Hey! -I'm sorry...
I said, get out of my way!
-Cut that out. -Ouch!
You're the one who ran into him.
That's enough for today. I'll get you later.
Tsubomi, thank you for protecting me.
Shouldn't it be the other way around?
MOB 37%
You there, Ritsu?
What's up, Shigeo?
Can you help me for a second?
With what?
Act like a hoodlum and grab me by the collar.
Okay.
Like this?
Oh! Ouch!
It hurts!
Are you okay?
Were you eating curry?
No!
Then...
I was trying to bend it
just like you do.
Do it for me.
Here.
But, my power is useless.
Most people can't do this kind of thing.
You still don't get it, Ritsu.
A man has to be strong.
I can't even protect the girl I like from a hoodlum,
let alone White T-Shirt Poison.
"White T-Shirt Poison"?
I heard he's our school's shadow leader.
Do you know who it is?
You do?
Who is it?
It's probably...
It's probably you, Shigeo.
What?
I'm White T-Shirt Poison?
How come?
When you defeated that Hanazawa guy, you were wearing a white t-shirt, right?
I'm sorry!
I'm the shadow leader?
Don't tell a soul! Keep quiet about it!
It's from the student council president.
Hello. Kageyama speaking.
Yes.
You're implementing step one of the school clean-up plan?
SALT MIDDLE SCHOOL
I'm sorry you had to come so early.
It's all right.
But, what's this plan?
Just follow me. You'll see.
Who dares look down on Tenga Onigawara the strongest?
What are we doing in the third-year students' classroom?
What are those?
Just what they look like. Recorder mouthpieces.
These are all from girls' recorders.
I collected them yesterday.
I'm going to put these in our target's desk.
Our target?
Onigawara's desk.
I suspect that Onigawara is
the White T-Shirt Poison everyone's talking about.
That's why we're going to cause an incident and get rid of him.
He'll get kicked out quickly and easily.
Isn't it immoral to do...
Then, you're okay with White T-Shirt Poison having his way?
Ritsu, what should I do?
I did it again.
If everyone thinks Onigawara is White T-Shirt Poison,
nobody will know that it was Shigeo.
If Onigawara is kicked out,
then Shigeo won't get involved in any more crazy stuff.
My mouthpiece is gone.
Really?
Mine is gone, too!
What? Why are they missing?
Who the heck took them?
-Mine is missing, too. -Mine is gone as well.
Mine, too.
Even Tsubomi's?
Oh, my god! It's only the girls' mouthpieces.
-It's only the girls. -Just the pretty ones.
-It's only the girls? -Why's it only the girls?
Why only the pretty girls?
Mine, too!
Mine is gone, too!
No, you have yours.
No, I don't!
You're holding it.
I am not!
Attention, students.
This is the student council president, Kamuro.
As you all know, the mouthpieces of the girls' recorders
were all stolen this morning. However, the student council
has an idea who the culprit is.
Everyone! Quiet, please.
I found them.
-Seriously? -No way.
They're in Onigawara's desk.
-That's so disgusting! -I can't believe this!
What?
What do you think you're doing, freshman?
Who the hell said you could stick your hand in my desk?
I knew it was you, Onigawara.
What?
Pervert!
Who said that?
Who called me a pervert?
The stolen girls' recorder mouthpieces were found inside your desk.
Recorders?
I bet you were going to lick them when nobody was looking, weren't you?
I didn't do it!
If I stole them,
why would I put them somewhere so easy to find?
Only a moron would do that!
Then, I guess you're a moron, aren't you?
You ranked last in your grade.
This isn't fair!
Violence isn't fair either, don't you think?
Why you...
There are some in his bag, too.
How dare you touch my bag!
So, you're going to resort to violence?
-Cut it out! Kageyama didn't do anything! -That's right!
-Leave him be!
-Keep your hands off him! -Back off!
What the hell's wrong with you?
Have you all lost your minds?
I didn't do it!
I said I didn't...
He just looked up my skirt! How disgusting!
You filthy pervert!
What a douchebag!
-Pervert! -Creep!
Apologize!
To hell with all of you!
I told you to get a yakisoba roll!
You sure do love those.
It's not for me. It's for this guy...
Let's get out of here.
Fucking hell.
What a bunch of jerks.
GYM
That was some great exercise.
Oh, Onigawara!
What's up?
It wasn't me.
I didn't steal the recorder mouthpieces!
Really?
I sensed that you were the culprit!
Onigawara says he didn't do it!
I'm very sorry!
I guess my reception was a little off.
It's all right.
I'm sorry. My bad.
There's something fishy about this.
I was set up.
If you didn't do it, then hold your head up high.
But...
Take out your frustration by working out!
Come work out with us.
You mean...
you'll let me join you guys?
Of course!
Starting today, you're one of us.
-It's all right. -You have been through a lot.
You're one of us now.
MOB 12%
Bodybuilding!
-Pump up! -Pump up!
Way to go! Keep it up!
Bodybuilding!
-Pump up! -Pump up!
These aren't tears!
It's sweat!
Nice! Last spurt!
I'm such a loser.
Oh, aren't you Mob's younger brother?
You're the guy from the Ghosts Etc. Agency.
What's with the gloomy face?
Are you becoming like Mob?
What are you doing hanging around our neighborhood?
Well, apparently there's a ghost around here,
so I was called in for an exorcism.
This is perfect! Can you give me a hand? Mob said he's busy with his club.
Forget it.
If you're a spirit medium, handle it yourself.
Also,
quit using my brother for your shady work.
It isn't bending at all.
Yes, it isn't bending.
Do you really have psychic powers?
Come on, Kageyama. Show us what you really can do.
Your power is much greater than this, right?
Hurry! Show us!
To hell with all of you!
I'm leaving.
What?
To be honest, I don't have any psychic powers.
What?
A middle school student I've never seen before came out of the lab.
Follow that boy.
Oh, it's just the younger brother.
What? You can see me?
Really? I guess you really are brothers!
You have awakened your psychic powers!
Amazing!
