It will be called Operation Tlaloc.
I came to see, too.
Sigma.
To see what I can do.
I'll checkmate you in five moves.
One!
Two!
Three.
I see.
You're different from the other Amazons.
You're like a machine.
Huh?
No damage?
Yes, there seems to be...
some damage.
Then I wish you'd act like it.
Damn you...
You're mine now.
Four.
Checkmate.
Violent Strike.
Jin!
The target has escaped.
Okay, no problem.
I've received the footage.
One!
The test is complete.
-Come back here. -Roger that.
You came and saved me...
You forgot something on your way out.
Huh?
I forgot to kiss her goodbye.
I had a bad feeling about today.
Me, too.
You really are a goddess of luck.
Now for the kiss... Ow!
Thanks.
Could you take me somewhere?
-With those injuries? -I want to go home soon but...
That's enough eggs.
The situation is bad.
I now know what we're facing.
This one is dangerous.
Research lab.
Did you get the battle data?
It's perfect.
Do a physical check-up when he gets back.
And,
start the large scale cultivation of the new Amazon cells.
We’re going to sign a contract with that hospital to procure the bodies.
Yes, sir.
It's me, Tachibana.
I want to start considering the mass production of belts.
How about making samples on lots of hundreds?
Subject: Tlaloc
Ouch.
-Shut up. Calm down. -Ouch!
Ouch!
Operation Tlaloc, huh?
Like a tractor?
Tlaloc.
There is a god of rain with that name.
As always, Fuku knows everything.
In other words, they're planning on strewing
pesticide all over the city using the rain.
It’d be able to exterminate 80 to 90 percent of the 4,000 bugs.
It would truly be a blessed rain.
But if this operation works, we’ll be left unemployed.
Idiot. If it can get rid of the bugs, it’d be the best thing for this world.
Although, losing a living will certainly hurt.
They should just abort.
This mass murder operation.
Exterminating Amazons that haven’t done anything...
I think that's wrong.
How many times are you going to say the same thing?
Haruka.
If you ever get in the way again...
I'll hunt you down.
But anyway, Darling Boy needs to evacuate with Mamo.
Or you’ll be exterminated by that gas.
What is it?
Miss Muzuki!
What?
Mizuki!
Haruka!
Miss Mizuki! Hello there!
How do you like my reports?
Oh, thank you for all the pictures.
It’s nothing really, I’ll do anything you ask me to...
Why?
Did you by any chance come for me because you were worried?
I'm sorry for not contacting you.
What an awful cut.
We have to go to the hospital.
It's okay.
This happens all the time.
All the time?
Haruka.
Stop doing such dangerous things.
Let's go home together.
I'll ask my mom to let you go outside freely.
I'll ask her to give you better food.
-Wait, Mizuki. -Let's get some more fish, too.
-And go shopping and... -Listen to me.
It's not that.
Your home really was a comfortable place for me.
It really was.
Then...
Stop fighting.
It's not in your character.
Do you think so?
I wonder what that means, to be in my character?
Huh?
Takayama?
Hey, Extermination Team.
Tattered as always, eh?
You sure do look pretty tattered yourself.
Yeah... right.
Yeah. The situation is pretty bad now.
Don't you want to hear about it?
Come with us to the office.
Great.
-I'll call you when it's done. -Okay.
Huh? What was that?
I'm so jealous.
Sorry to bother!
-Wait, you're getting on? -Of course I am!
Bye.
Wait!
Sorry.
I bet going home with you would make every day a lot more fun.
But...
that’s not where who I am now wants to be.
I think choosing to fight isn’t wrong.
He used to be a little baby, but he’s changed.
I can't be happy for him. Seeing him all hurt like that...
Maehara. It’s Maehara!
Maehara is alive!
I verified that...
I'm so glad.
You've got to be kidding me.
What the hell is this?
I came to make certain.
That's all.
So it was the guy from before, huh?
Um, who is he?
Jun Maehara.
He was one of us.
I don’t mind being eaten,
as long as it’s by you...
So,
-this person is... -It's Maehara!
Wait, Mamo.
-He's supposed to be... -Yes.
He's supposed to be dead.
What do you mean?
There was a project that was aborted while I was still at Nozama.
It was a project to transplant Amazon cells into a dead person.
Obviously, it’ll turn into an Amazon that looks just like the original person.
But that person has died once, you know.
You understand how various moral problems could arise.
It seems like the project was restarted
at the International Sales Strategy Headquarters.
by Yugo Tachibana, the Chief.
What for?
It’s faster than growing a human from scratch.
In other words,
it costs less.
Cost?
So, the Amazons are a product?
Or maybe a weapon...
No...
If you wear the belt, it's perfect.
Let's continue.
Amazon.
Amazon Sigma.
What they transplanted was a new form of Amazon cells.
Apparently, it has no need to eat.
Tachibana told me that in order to lure me out.
Well, half of it was probably due to his wanting to brag about it.
He's a sample.
A sample?
So, it really is a product?
What in hell’s name are they thinking?
Damn it!
Leave aside that passionate stuff.
I came here to raise your awareness as to what’s going on.
And I wanted to borrow these two Amazons, him and that guy.
We need to scrap this thing while it’s still a sample.
But there’s Tlaloc.
What is this...
Tlaloc thing?
This is the controller for the Tlaloc System.
It’s set so that only you, Chief, can start the operation.
Whoa. The Tlaloc, huh?
That’s great! That means we can wipe out all the Amazons in this city.
I never knew. And when is it going to happen?
The next time it rains.
You'd better leave the city before that.
Huh? Why?
You're an Amazon, right?
Yeah.
I’m one of those Amazons that
I’m going to completely wipe out.
Jin...
What makes you go so far?
You press down on the function key and type three on the keyboard.
I heard, Mizusawa. About Operation Tlaloc.
How the hell? That’s supposed to be top-secret information.
You're acting like such a stranger!
How dare you keep such a wonderful operation secret from me?
Well, if you’re willing to cooperate...
Nah. Actually, I came to ask you to abort that operation.
Why?
Mizusawa,
to be honest,
how do you feel about the 4,000 Amazons living freely in this city?
It's a living hell.
Right, it's hell.
Don’t you also think that it’s become the best playing field now?
For an experiment, and for a promotion.
A simulation of what would happen when
Amazon test subjects were set free in the city.
Plus,
a combat efficiency test with stronger Amazon subjects meant to exterminate them.
What are you saying?
This was originally an accident that our company caused.
Using that for promotion is--
We will exterminate them, of course.
But there’s no need to dissipate this situation immediately.
Right now, our new product is ready for field-testing.
Impossible.
I refuse.
I see.
That's quite unfortunate.
Yes.
This is the research lab.
We've finished checking Sigma's body.
Besides the damage from the fighting,
we've discovered that the power output from the belt wasn’t right.
We’d like to test the power output and see how much he’s recovered,
so we’d like to collect some more combat data.
Okay, I'll arrange something.
Ouch... Can’t you do it a little more gently?
Just bear with it.
Geez. Don't you see how awful this injury is?
You could at least worry a little about me.
Ouch!
You think I don't worry.
Every time you leave,
do you think I don't feel a thing?
No, I don't
As long as you understand.
Ouch!
Nanaha.
If I were to never came back...
Huh? What did you say?
Nothing.
Is Haruka...
not the same person that he used to be?
Is he never...
coming back?
I'm glad Maehara is alive.
That's not it.
-Mamo. -Kazuya.
Leave things as they are for now.
I guess we're lucky that he’s not an extermination target.
I see.
He’s not a test subject. We’ve got Tlaloc, too.
Haruka.
You'd better not be planning on getting in the way of Tlaloc.
I meant what I said earlier.
If you ever get in the way again...
I'll hunt you down.
Do you remember what you said?
That you wanted us to exterminate you if you started to eat humans.
If you stop the operation, that’d be the same as indirectly eating humans.
Yes, sir.
But...
I can’t do something I don’t agree with.
If that's the case...
I can't have you on the Extermination Team.
Huh?
I understand.
Wait, Darling Boy!
Mizusawa, wait! Don’t go!
Shido!
We’ve detected a test subject.
Nerima 100 Plate number 71-03
Kazuya.
It's that way.
It should be around here.
Where is it?
There's someone there.
Maehara!
Mamoru! Stop!
Maehara!
-Mamoru! -Long time, no see.
I suppose.
Do you remember us?
Of course.
Fuku.
Shido.
Nozomi.
Kazuya.
Mamoru.
Ryusuke is gone, obviously.
Sorry for making you come all the way out here.
What do you want?
I need more combat data.
-Sigma. -Amazon.
Maehara.
I need the data.
I need you to transform.
I don't want to.
Let him go!
Mamoru!
Mamoru.
Jun is the one suffering the most because of this.
That's why we have to...
hunt him down.
That's right.
Stop it!
Maehara!
It's troublesome if you don't want to cooperate.
I don't want to.
I don't want to!
I see...
Mizusawa.
I can finally test it out.
I'll checkmate you...
in four moves.
I wish he wouldn't imitate his chess line.
Are you done?
One!
Two!
Haruka!
He's strong...
Chief.
New weather report.
If all goes well, it'll rain tomorrow afternoon.
I can't have it raining right now.
Three.
Damn it. I was one move too early.
Mizusawa?
Haruka... You truly are...
I'm sure the Chairman would be pleased.
-Test subjects are alive, too! -They're not humans, just bugs.
A dead person wouldn't understand.
Hunt down
that new bug.
