No. 1107! Out!
1107--step forward!
Kuniko! Kuniko! Kuniko!
Kuniko! Kuniko! Kuniko! Kuniko! Kuniko!
Pipe down!
Kuniko! Kuniko! Kuniko! Kuniko!...
Knock it off!
Thanks for everything!
Thanks for everything!
Good luck!
Take care!
Come and play again sometime!
Let's hang out sometime!
Come back soon!
Come back anytime!
She won't get caught again!
Haha! You want her to get pinched again?!
Hey, everyone!
Kuniko! Kuniko! Kuniko! Kuniko!
Today's the day that Kuniko Hojo is released!
Everyone!
Make sure you don't end up here again.
My name is Kuniko Hojo...
After all, you've helped us out a few times by keeping those thugs in line.
...and today I go free!
You've gotta be kidding!
Yaaay!!
Momoko-san!
I don't ever want to see you back here.
But I did want to tell you what a big help you were, keeping those girls in line for us.
I don't believe this...
Momoko!
Kuniko! Kuniko!
Kuniko! Kuniko!
Ouch!
Ow-ow-ow! Not so rough...!
Welcome back, Kuniko!
Welcome back, Kuniko.
You're hurting me!
C'mon, that hurts...!
You've gotten thin, haven't you?
You got thin, didn't you?
Especially around your chest...
Especially your chest.
God, it's been bothering me, too...
Jerk... You know I'm self-conscious about that!
Hey!
Hey.
Hurry up!
Hurry and get in the car.
Oh, Takehiko's here, too.
Holy cow. You came too, Takehiko?
That's Takehiko-san to you.
Hey, that's "Sir" to you, missy.
Kuniko...
Kuniko...
Mi-ko!
Miiko!
I was so worried when they took you away.
The whole time you were gone... I was so worried... so worried that...
You were so worried, you put on 10kg?
That you put on 20 pounds?
Oh Kuniko!
Ohh! You're such a little bitch...!
Stop being mean to her.
Stop doing that.
You'll only make her ugly face even uglier!
Your face is ugly enough as it is--
Even Momoko-san is mocking me...
you certainly don't want to ugly it up any further.
Did you bring that thing I asked for?
Ohh... not you too, Momoko.
Yes, but...
Wait--did you bring it like I asked?
what exactly do you intend to do with it?
That I did, but...
I'm going to do this!
...what are you planning to do with it?
What's that thing?
I'm planning to do this!
Atlas flag.
What on earth is that?
They made us all salute to this thing every morning.
It's their flag.
Man, I feel better now.
And if you're wondering why,
Right, let's head back to Duomo.
it's because they made us salute this stupid thing every single day.
Momoko-san, is Duomo still afloat?
Ahh! Now I feel better!
Yeah. Everyone's been putting their noses to the grindstones like always.
All right--then let's go home to Duomo!
We've gained some new people, too.
Hey, Momoko, is Duomo the same as always?
I can't wait to meet them!
Yeah. Everyone's just doing their best to eke out a living.
It's not all good news, though. Shokuan Avenue is more submerged than it was.
And we've gotten quite a few new residents, too.
I see...
Wow! I can't wait to meet them!
We're here!
However... the area around Shokuan Street gets more and more submerged by the day.
Nagiko's waiting for us.
So it's not all wine and roses in Duomo, you know.
She says the Metal-age is...
I see.
Hey!
Here we are!
You're in the way, fatty!
Nagiko's waitin' to see you, kiddo.
Where's she gone?
And all the Metal Age guys are--
Beats me.
She is like the wind. Wind never stands still.
Hey, Kuni-chan!
The Metal-age force was created to oppose the government's drastic policies...
regarding the reduction of carbon dioxide.
Despite its numerous anti-government protests...
Hey!
Hey!
Sit still for a second and pay attention!
Move your fat ass! You're in the way!
Listen, everything you see here is a relic from the previous century.
Where'd she go?
The carbon markets would react violently to processes like deforestation in order to produce of paper.
Who knows?
But these relics hold wisdom.
That girl's like the wind.
Wisdom you can't find on the Internet.
How do you keep the wind on a leash?
Here, you will find the information you need.
Whoa...!
Don't assume that all human knowledge can be found on the Internet.
Hey, it's Kuniko!
When you become the leader of the Metal-age,
"From the beginning, we were opposed
if you ever find yourself in a fix, this is where you'll find...
to the government's drastic policies for the reduction of CO2 emissions.
It was our opposition that led to the formation of Metal Age.
But despite countless anti-government protests"--
Stop that!
Can't you sit still for just one second and listen to what I'm trying to tell you?!
You see all this?
Everything you see in this room is a relic from the last century.
The whole idea of smashing trees to make paper...
The carbon market would be up in arms about it.
But there's knowledge in these books.
There's wisdom here... that you won't find on the Net.
All the information you'll be needing is also right here.
Don't go thinking that the Net has all the information you need to know.
If you're ever at a loss once you've become the president of Metal Age,
this is where you'll--uh?!
Kuniko!
Kuniko!
Listen to people when they're still talking!
Can't you at least wait till I'm done talking before you run off?!
No, thanks!
Nope, I can't!
Looks like it's true - Kuni-chan has returned.
I guess it's true, after all... Kuniko really is back, isn't she?
Seems that way.
It certainly seems that way.
Kuni-chan?
What the...?
Kuni-chan, you made it out okay then?
Kuniko?
Yep, thanks for asking.
Whoa... Kuniko?
Here's a gift to celebrate your release.
So I guess you got out okay, huh?
Here, take it.
Yep! Thanks for asking.
Thank you, Take-san!
Here--to celebrate your gettin' out.
I'm glad Kuni-chan's in such high spirits.
Go on and take it.
That she is.
Thank you, Mr Také!
Who's that?
Sure!
Oh, you've never seen her before?
Kuniko... I'm glad she looks so happy.
She's Kuniko Hojo, Nagiko's granddaughter.
Yeah.
You mean, that little girl's going to lead the Metal-age one day?
Who was that?
Oh, I wouldn't go that far...
Oh, that was your first time seeing her?
Oh, I wouldn't go that far...
That's Kuniko Hojo.
Hey, Kuniko!
Nagiko's granddaughter.
Where's my souvenir?
Oh, so that's the girl who'll be taking over Metal Age someday?
Some other time, okay?
Well, I dunno about that...
What?! Cheapskate!
Ah, Kuniko! Did you bring me a present?
Z4.
Sorry--next time, 'kay!
Your report, Shogo.
What the hell?! Cheapskate!
Yes, ma'am.
Zet Vier Shogo, give me your report.
Digma 2 has left the Women's Detention Center.
Yes, Madam.
She has now returned to area E-51, also known as Duomo.
Digma 2 has been released from the Girls' Reform Center.
Sion,
For the time being, she has returned to Sector E-51,
you scratched me!
otherwise known as "Duomo."
My deepest apologies, Lady Ryoko!
Shion.
Continue your reconnaissance.
Your fingernail scratched me--!!
Understood.
Madam Ryoko, I beg your forgiveness!
So, the Sun has ventured out into the world...
Continue to monitor her activities.
What news of the Moon?
Understood, Madam.
No change, ma'am.
So The Sun is on the loose, eh...?
She's decided to go for another stroll in the underworld.
Then what about The Moon?
This is Atlas.
The same as always, Madam.
Pretty impressive, huh?
She's off for yet another stroll in the lower realms.
Are you sure we should be here?
Look--that's Atlas right there.
It was all barricaded off back there.
Pretty impressive, don't you think?
Who do you think you're talking to?
Are you sure this is okay?
Assemble the gun here.
What about, you know, the whole barricade back there...?
I apologize for the disturbance, Lady Mikuni.
I'm not just some schmuck here, you know.
The underworld sure is an intriguing place, isn't it?
Bring out the gun!
Atlas Rank BC?
Miss Mikuni, I apologize for the racket.
These buffoons dared to cross Lady Mikuni's path?
The lower realms are rather thrilling!
I'll promote them to Rank AG.
Atlas Rank BC?!
Lucky brats.
You're saying Miss Mikuni's path was blocked by this wretched pair of human lowlifes?!
Sayoko,
I'll bump both their ranks up to AG.
let me see, too.
They'll be so pleased.
No, you mustn't. Your eyes will be tainted.
Sayoko... prithee do let us see as well.
You're mean, Sayoko.
Out of the question. Your eyes will only be stained by it.
Yes, I am.
Thou art a mean thing, Sayoko.
Hurry up! This eclipse won't last forever!
Yes. I am a mean thing.
I'm back,
Get moving! The eclipse is almost over!
Tokyo!
I'm baaack!
I'll explain one more time.
Tokyooo!
You know what carbon tax is?
I just explained this,
It's a tax levied on all countries that emit carbon dioxide.
but I'll explain it to you one more time, all right?
The rate changes constantly, depending on the amount of carbon emitted and absorbed.
Do you know what the Carbon Tax is?
Indeed.
It's a tax that's been levied on all countries with positive carbon dioxide emissions.
And at the moment, Japan's tax rate stands at:
The rate of taxation varies
1.12.
depending on the ratio between carbon emissions and carbon absorption.
However, your country's tax rate stands at 2.48.
It fluctuates all the time.
It's unfortunate that you have to pay 2,480 yen for something that only costs a thousand.
That's right. And by the way, Japan's Carbon Tax Index
No matter how you sugarcoat your words, I refuse to trust anyone who declines to show their face.
currently stands at 1.12, while your nation's index is a whopping 2.48.
Previous generations thought that meeting in person would build mutual trust.
That's too bad for you--
And where did that get them?
it means you have to pay out 2,480 yen for something that's only worth 1,000.
Discriminated by looks.
It doesn't matter what you say!
Discriminated by race.
How do you expect me to trust you when you won't even show your face?!
That's not how we work, in the carbon business.
Whoever said you can't build trust unless you meet face-to-face?
Carbon! Carbon!
That's last-generation thinking.
The damn carbon credit system is to blame for all this!
And what did we get as a result of that way of thinking?
Carbon taxes were introduced in order to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
Segregation based on looks. Discrimination based on race and color.
However, many countries, including your own, continued industrialization.
But we don't do that sort of thing. After all, we're carbonists.
You probably reasoned that you could recoup high tax costs by using cheap labor, right?
"Carbon"! "Carbon"!
To stop that and ensure a substantive decrease in carbon emissions,
It's your monetized carbon that's the problem with the whole damn system!
the concept of carbon credits was introduced.
The whole reason the Carbon Tax was introduced was to reduce carbon emissions.
If you procrastinate in your responsibilities,the carbon credits accrue interest.
But instead, your nation decided to go the other way.
That's only natural.
You went right on industrializing in spite of the threat of high tariffs.
Forcing a law on the third world that's only been ratified by first world countries...
And when it came to the emissions penalties being levied on you,
Then, cut yourself off from the global economy and go back to being self-sufficient!
I'll bet you figured you could just offset those with cheap labor costs, right?
Listen to our proposal. If you sign a contract with Ishida Finance,
Well, that's exactly why they came up with the idea of monetized carbon--
we'll draw up a lease for a hundred million tons of carbon.
to give people an incentive to reduce their actual carbon emissions.
We will then transfer that to LTCI, one of our holding companies-
The longer it takes you to reduce your actual carbon emissions,
No, I don't need to hear any more.
the more interest charges you accrue on your balance of monetized carbon.
That won't reduce our carbon output in the slightest.
I don't know why that doesn't make sense to you.
It'll only change a few imaginary numbers that we've dubbed carbon credits.
It's first-world countries unilaterally deciding on a tax law!
That's fraud!
And then forcing that law on third-world countries when--
It's completely legal, sir.
If that's your view, then just pull out of the global economy!
Indeed. If such changes amounted to fraud,our nation would be just as guilty.
Just go back to being a self-sufficient nation and your troubles are over!
Looks like your two lackeys are smarter than you.
Are you listening? All you have to do is sign a contract with us here at Ishida Finance.
Just to make this clear: no one else has the computing power to pull this off.
We make a master lease agreement for 100 million tons of your emitted carbon.
Only our MEDUSA system is capable of such a feat.
After that, we just transfer the lease over to another holding company called LTCI.
MEDUSA can take carbon credits worth 100 million tons...
Enough. I don't want to hear another word of your "explanation."
and legally hedge them.
This doesn't reduce actual carbon emissions by one iota!
No computer system of comparable performance exists.
All it does is just reduce some fictitious number that you people call "monetized carbon"!
It's been mathematically proven.
This is a goddamn fraud--!!
Would you like a copy of my doctoral thesis on it?
But sir, this is completely legal.
I've already read it, thanks.
Absolutely.
There's no need to waste time on that, then.
If it weren't legal, then our own nation
We have no reason to waste this much time on contractual negotiations, either.
would be collectively complicit in the very same fraud.
Foreign Minister Abidin,
Looks like the men standing behind you are smarter than you are.
even as you hesitate, your country's lower-classes are suffering.
I'll tell you right now--no one else has a computer system capable of pulling this off.
Your decision, sir.
The only reason we can do it is because of the Medusa system we developed.
I guess it's the role of a politician to sell his soul to the Devil for the sake of his country.
Medusa can manipulate 100 million tons of monetized carbon derivatives
Bravo!
and legally hedge the collateralized risk obligation.
Your contract with Ishida Finance has been agreed to.
Any other computer system would lead you straight to bankruptcy.
1.0?
What I'm telling you here is a mathematically proven fact.
So, in effect, the tax has been eradicated.
If you don't believe me, would you like a copy of my doctoral dissertation?
You're saying that our fifty years of toil have all been for nothing?
No thanks, I've already read it.
Wasted years, I guess.
Then we don't need to waste any more time discussing this, do we?
We worked really hard there, Pudding.
Of course... there's really no reason to spend this much time concluding a contract, either.
Yes, we did, Karin!
Foreign Minister Abidin, the longer you sit there hesitating,
There are messages from Klaris and the others.
the longer the poor and needy in your country have to suffer.
It's okay. Forget about them for now.
Sir, please make a decision.
Then, what about Mom and Dad?
For the sake of his people,
I bet they're busy.
it falls upon the politician to sell his own soul to the devil if he must.
I'll text them later.
Bravo! Your contract with Ishida Finance is now concluded!
Mom and Dad will be able to have dinner with you someday!
1.0...!
No tax in effect?!
All those 50 years of blood, sweat, and toil that we put in...!
What was it for...?!
For nothing. That'd be my guess.
Pudding... we really busted our butts, didn't we?
"We sure did, Karin!
We've also got some messages from Klaris and those guys."
Oh, who cares? Forget about the messages for now.
"Okay, but what about Papa and Mama?"
I'm sure they're just busy.
I'll email them later.
"One of these days we're gonna get to have dinner with Papa and Mama, huh?"
Yeah!
Yeah!
Help me! Help me! Help me!
Help me... Help me... Help me...
You must be wary of the storm so that the island won't sink.
I want you to be afraid of the storm and hope that the island won't sink.
Then, a new storm will hit the carbon markets.
Your fear will bring a storm to the carbon market.
That storm will bring us wealth.
And when a storm comes to the carbon market, it brings wealth for us.
For a second, carbon credits worth 100 million tons of emissions vanished completely.
Even if just for a second,
you're telling me that 100 million tons of monetized carbon just vanished...?
That's impossible.
That's impossible.
With the help of Zeus, I've tried to analyze the flow of money and carbon,
I've tapped Zeus resources, analyzing the flow of carbon and money through the system,
but the complexity of the market has hindered me.
but the structure of the market is just too complicated to piece it together.
In other words, you don't know who did it.
So you're telling me you have no idea who did this.
No, I don't.
That's right.
Perform a thorough investigation.
I want a thorough investigation into why this happened.
Instability in the carbon markets threatens the development of Japan,
Without stability in the carbon market, Japan's development,
and perhaps even of Atlas itself.
and by extension the very existence of Atlas, is at risk.
Understood.
I understand what's at stake.
Lady Ryoko,
Madam Ryoko...
this is my own personal opinion,
This is simply my own personal opinion here,
but is it possible the Metal-age were behind it?
but I think there's a strong possibility that Metal Age may have done this.
The Metal-age?
Metal Age?
Publicly they're an anti-government organization,
I know they're just an anti-government guerilla group,
but Digma 2, their next leader-designate, is infamous in the carbon markets.
but their soon-to-be-leader Digma 2 has been a well-known presence in the carbon market.
Found you!
I found you!
Looks like you got me...
Guess you found me.
Who do you think has been looking after you since you were this small?
Ever since you were no bigger than this, who do you think's been looking after you?
You always come here when something's happened,
Who do you suppose that's been, huh?
whether you're crying about it or laughing.
Kuniko... whenever anything happened, this is where you always came to sort it out.
Nagiko was very put out.
Whether it meant crying your eyes out or laughing your head off.
I kinda figured that two years away would have made Granny give up on this whole "leader" idea.
Nagiko was madder than a wet hornet, you know.
It seems I underestimated the pre-disaster generation...
I've been gone for two years now.
I was just really hoping Grandma'd finally given up on that whole "president" thing.
I guess I seriously underestimated the prequake generation.
You are the wind.
You are the wind.
The wind goes wherever it wants.
And the wind can blow whichever way it pleases.
Enjoy your youth, little girl.
Just be a teenager, young lady.
I want you to be a normal girl.
All I want is for you to be a normal girl just like everyone else.
I don't want you to become the leader of the Metal-age.
Believe me, the last thing I want for you is to be the president of Metal Age.
That's Takehiko and his men, isn't it?
Takehiko and his goons, no doubt.
I must stop them.
We've gotta make them stop!
I've got a bad feeling about this.
I've got a bad feeling about this...!
I like taking toys away from boys.
Taking toys away from boys is one of my favorite pastimes. Let's go.
Burn! Burn!
Let it burn! Let it burn!
We're celebrating Kuniko's return!
We're celebratin' Kuniko's return, boys!
Let's show off to all those carbon satellites!
Let's show them carbon satellites what we got!
Takehiko! The markets will spike!
Takehiko! You'll send the market reeling!
What do you know? You haven't even looked at the markets in two years!
You haven't even looked at the market in two years. What the hell do you know?
Besides, we've calculated it so that the change in the carbon index won't be more than 0.15.
Don't sweat the carbon index--it won't fluctuate by more than 0.15 points.
It's spiked! The markets have risen to 0.38!
I did the math myself.
See what I mean?
Sudden spike--! The index just jumped 0.38 points!
If we start roiling the market, we'll have to deal with not only the government...
Now look what you've done!
but also the Carbon Police!
If we throw the markets into chaos,
You really are a blockhead.
we're going way beyond the usual anti-government stuff!
Takehiko, they're here!
We'll bring the Carbon Police down on our heads!
What? It hasn't even been a minute yet!
You are such a simpleton.
Kuniko!
Takehiko! They're here!
What's happening?
But how?! It hasn't even been a minute yet!
Young lady!
It's not the Carbon Police at all.
It's the military!
Prepare for battle!
It's the military!
Head towards the plaza!
You should fire a warning or issue a verbal warning before firing on armed civilians!
Major Kusanagi, know your place.
The Atlas Security Corps do not need to follow military protocol.
We are quite capable of demoting you.
Duly noted.
I hope they have the same things you do:
A strong spirit and...
a sword passed down from generation to generation.
Hurry!
Don't let them set foot past the Otakibashi Plaza!
Is this how the military reacts?
As long as they're in the right, they think it's acceptable to involve citizens?
Kuniko!
Kuniko!
Nagiko told me to give this to you.
What's the situation?
I don't need it!
Take a look!
It symbolizes the leader of the Metal-age!
That's not the Carbon Police.
Then, you take it!
It looks like... the army!
Hey!
Prepare for battle! It's the army!
This place...
Everyone run for the marketplace!
How dare you set foot in here!
We need to warn them first!
We don't need anything from a mob of corporate cronies!
Or at most fire a warning shot over their heads!
Why, you...
Those are the rules of engagement for confronting armed citizens!
Attacking without warning... You call yourself soldiers?!
Lieutenant Kusanagi, you need to learn your place.
A girl?
Atlas Corporation Security Forces are not required to follow military protocol.
So, she's Digma 2, huh?
Furthermore, we have the authority to demote you if it comes to that.
Like a sapling, she's still green.
Do it, if that's what you want.
Are you the leader of the Metal-age?
I hope they have exactly what you do--
Oh no, not really...
an indomitable fighting spirit,
What was the dramatic entrance about then?!
and an ancestral blade passed down for generations.
I'm not with the Metal-age, but I have ties with them, so... um...
Hurry up! Let's make sure we don't let 'em set one foot past Otakibashi Square!
In any case, you shouldn't just attack us like that!
Is this really how the army does things?!
You're the ones whose illegal acts are screwing around with the carbon markets!
As long as they're in the right, they don't care how many innocent citizens get hurt...?!
All we did was create a little smoke so we could generate some electricity!
Kuniko! Nagiko asked me to give you this.
I'm talking about the incident before!
I don't want that thing!
The incident before?
It's the Metal Age presidential emblem!
That's cheating!
All right, then you take it.
What are you doing to my little girl?!
Hey--!
What is this place...?
No one gave you permission to be here, so get the fuck out!
We got no fuckin' use for a buncha lapdogs who lick corporate ass!
Try that again, you--
You go and attack innocent people without warning?!
And you still call yourself soldiers?!
A girl...?
So this is Digma 2, huh?
She comes off like a rough-cut board full of splinters and pitch.
Are you the president of Metal Age?
Uh, no... not exactly, I'm just, uh...
Then what'd you bust in with such a big show for?!
I'm not actually in Metal Age myself...
...but I guess I do have close ties to it... I mean...
But the point is, you're not supposed to just go around attacking people!
You brought this on yourself!
You were the ones who tanked the carbon market with your illegal acts!
All we did was put out a little smoke trying to make electricity!
I'm talking about before that!
"Before that"...?
That was a dirty move!
What are you trying to do to my little girl?!
Kuniko!
Kuniko!
Take this!
Eat this--!!
That's not good form.
That's no good.
Your movements are wasting energy so you can't totally absorb the impact.
You're not fully absorbing the impacts because your movements are still too exaggerated.
But...
But...
One more thing.
And there's one more thing.
A woman must never forget her lipstick when going into battle.
When a woman enters the battlefield, she should never forget her lipstick.
All right. Now you look perfect.
There, now you look perfect.
What a hunk!
What a sexy guy.
I love men.
Get off! Y-You--!!
You know I just love men.
Men!
Men!
Take this!
Bastards!
Ouch!
Ow--!
Resistance is futile. Surrender at once!
Stop it with this pointless resistance! Just turn yourself in!
Shut your mouth!
Shut up!
What the...
What's this...?
What?
What?
Lady Mikuni...
Miss Mikuni?!
What happened?
What hath happened...?
I've heard this sound somewhere before...
I think I've heard this sound before...
The forest's tears trickle with poison.
The sadness of the forest falls to the earth as drops of poison rain.
Souls that hurt one another...
Souls that wound one another
can only be certain of one another via conflict.
can only recognize one another through conflict with one another.

Reactor 3 has shut down!
Furnace 3 is down!
Fall back to Okubo Road!
Evacuate to Okubo Street!
Momoko-san...
Momoko.
We're in a bit of a bind, aren't we?
Not the best situation we find ourselves in, is it now?
Whose forces are attacking us?
Whose forces are attacking?
Unknown! They don't appear to be our allies.
Unknown! But it's not coming from our forces.
Why haven't you given the order to counterattack?
Why haven't you ordered a counterattack?
It'd be idiotic to open fire on an unidentified force.
Engaging a force of unknown provenance is a mistake we should not make here.
So, what are you suggesting we do?
So what do you suggest we do?
We retreat.
Full withdrawal.
I'll make a note of your suggestion in my report.
This was your recommendation, Lieutenant.
Reactor 2 has shut down!
I'll make a note to that effect in my report.
The supply netwo-
Furnace 2 is down! Cut the supply valve!
Are we okay?!
Furnaces 2 and 3 are both down.
As far as how much damage the town has taken, it's...
Clear out!
You guys all right?!
I'm fine. But we need to--
I know the drill. Rescue comes first.
Let's go!
Okay!
Back there... it made some kind of sound.
It's a family blade. We've had it for generations.
I have a permit to wear it on my person.
It seemed like the same sound was coming from somewhere else, too.
I heard it too, but not enough to tell where it was coming from.
This way! Hurry up!
Mommy--!
Are you okay?
Are you okay?
Reactors 2 and 3 have shut down.
Yeah! Thank you!
I can't even guess at how much damage they've done to the town...
Run!
You okay?
I'm fine. But more importantly...
I know.
Our number one priority is search and rescue.
Let's go.
Right!
That trinket of yours made quite the din earlier, didn't it?
This blade has been in my family for generations.
I have all the correct permits for it.
There was a similar noise echoing elsewhere...
I couldn't ascertain where it came from.
This way!
Hurry!
Mom!
Are you all right?
Yeah, thanks.
Yoshihiro!
Yoshihiro!
Mom!
Mommy!
This is all your fault!
This is all your fault!
This is only happening because the Metal-age are here!
It's because you and your Metal Age friends are here!
That's not true, Mom. She just...
Now look what you've done to us!!
Shut up!
Mommy, you're wrong. This girl was just trying to--
Soichiro!
You shut up and be quiet!
Yes, ma'am.
Soichiro.
They launched their attack from old Ikebukuro.
Madam. The attack originated in old Ikebukuro.
From the precision of the impact locations,
Given the tightly concentrated impact pattern of the barrage,
we can assume that their artillery is well-trained.
I'd say the attack came from a highly disciplined infantry unit.
Are they a new anti-government organization?
So is this some new anti-government organization?
No, they're too well organized to be guerrillas.
No. This level of infantry training is way beyond guerillas.
So, what you're saying is that another country's military has infiltrated Tokyo?
So what, then? You're telling me forces from some other nation have infiltrated Tokyo?
It's true that there are signs for concern to the north and the west,
In point of fact, we have detected some disturbing activity to the north and west,
but strategically speaking, infiltrating the capital with just an artillery squad is impossible.
but to send in artillery without support is just inconceivable strategically.
I see...
I see.
Sion?
Shion?
Y-Yes.
Uh... yes, Madam!
Do you think we can let an unidentified military group just waltz into Tokyo?
No one knows who this military group is,
N-No...
but apparently they've just marched right into Tokyo.
Of course we can't!
Do you think we can allow that?
We must not.
N... No.
I...
That's right! We will not allow it!
I will head into the jungle and investigate myself.
We cannot allow it.
I'll find some trace of them.
I'll do it.
Very well.
I'll go into the poison swamp... and conduct an investigation.
Shogo, I leave the rest in your hands.
I will find some trace of who they are and what they're doing.
Yes, ma'am.
That sounds lovely.
Sion. Sion!
Shogo, I leave the rest in your capable hands.
Brother... I'm sorry.
Yes, Madam.
Leon, that little display took years off your life.
Shion! Shion!
Talking to Lady Ryoko like that...
Brother... I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry, Kudo-san.
Listen, Imaki, that just shortened your life here.
I had no choice.
Spouting off an opinion to Madam Ryoko.
I hear that their losses were less than they thought.
I apologize for what I've done, Kudo.
I'm glad.
But I had no other choice.
Yeah...
I heard there were a lot less casualties than people thought.
Isn't that great?
Yeah.
Hey, where's Kuniko?
Hey, where's Kuniko?
She's been at the Metal-age debriefing all morning.
She's been sitting in at that Metal Age meeting all morning.
She's still hanging out with that lot?
Huh? She's still hanging out with those guys?
She's got no choice.
What else can she do?
Her grandmother is the leader, after all...
I mean, when your grandma's the president...
Yeah, that's true.
I guess you're right.
They attacked from Ikebukuro, right?
So the launches came from Ikebukuro, is that right?
You're sure, Furukawa?
You're absolutely sure about that, Furukawa?
Takehiko, what about the subway tracks?
Takehiko, how about using the subway tracks?
They're still usable, but... no way!
We could use 'em, but... you don't wanna--!
Don't even think about it!
Don't even think about it!
The depths of the jungle are no place for humans!
The poison swamp is no kind of place for you to be walking around.
Even your rosy young cheeks wouldn't last ten seconds in its dense oxygen and its poisonous swampland!
With all the thick oxygen and toxic swamp water,
Not to mention that you aren't even a part of the Metal-age.
even that lovely teenage skin of yours wouldn't last ten seconds in that place!
This place... Duomo was attacked.
Besides, you're not even in Metal Age to begin with!
And Mr. Furukawa will give me some protective gear, right?
But our home...
Just so you know, the sizes you'll need are 90-60-88. You got that?
Duomo was attacked by someone.
Just how big do you think she is?!
Besides, if we need protective suits, I'm sure Furukawa here can scrounge some up for us.
Those are my measurements!
Momoko-san!
The roots have grown down even further.
We'll only be able to use this place for another year or two.
This isn't made to my measurements at all!
From behind, I can't tell you and Mi-ko apart.
What? You're kidding me!
I'm going to have a word with Furukawa.
Let's go.
Wait a minute!
Stop the car!
I'd rather die than go out looking like this!
I'm not stopping.
Hey, Karin.
Congrats. Looks like MEDUSA is a huge success.
Hey, it was this gal that brought in the funding from the EU.
Klaris, you should also mention that...
I brought in finances from the Swiss Carbon Banking Association.
We're not talking about who's top dog here.
What's important is that we made money, right?
Hey, listen to this! I got me a Ferrari!
Oh, the new 706?
The whole damn company!
How's MEDUSA doing?
Help me!
MEDUSA's doing fine.
Right?
Right?
Poor thing. It must be awful to be so close to dying all the time.
In that case, you'll need sizes for the protective suit.
It can't be helped; MEDUSA's fear is what's making us money!
From the top down, it's 36-24-35 for bust, waist and hips.
Was it necessary to isolate Ishida Finance in the Marshall Islands?
Uh...?
It's only the levees that are keeping that whole place afloat.
You think Kuniko's clothes are so slimming she drops ten sizes?!
Feeling pity for a computer program? The Marshalls are a tax haven.
Obviously, those are my measurements, you moron.
Those islands and MEDUSA share the same fear of rising waters.
Momoko!
The world's carbon emissions need to be reduced or they'll be under water.
These damn roots keep growin' further down on us.
I'm not really pitying it...
We've only got another one or two years' use out of this place at best.
You kinda get attached to your creation, don't you?
Uh...?
Right, anyway...
Why the hell did I even bother to tell him my measurements?!
Karin, what's MEDUSA's next target?
When I look at you from behind, I can't tell whether it's you or Miiko.
Help me, help me...
Ehhh?! This is ridiculous!
Hm, let's see.
We need to go see Furukawa right--
Help me, help me, help me...
Let's head out.
I'll help you.
Hold on!
Look across the carbon market for the business' weak spots.
Stop this car!
You have unlimited capabilities to hack into any system across the globe.
I can't be seen in public wearing this god-awful thing!
Weak spots? Weak spots?
I'd rather be caught dead!
You must find a spot with a big carbon debt.
I ain't stoppin' this car.
A debt means a gap between their actual carbon emissions and carbon credits.
Hiya, Karin! Congratulations! Looks like Medusa's a big success.
Found one! Found one! Found one!
Hey, but who pulled in all that investment from the EU? That was me.
Nydamia?
Well, Klaris, if we're comparing numbers,
Leave it to me, sweetie!
remember that I was the one who talked to the Swiss Carbon Banking Federation
Found one! Found one!
and secured financing from them for Ishida Finance.
Be patient.
Guys, I don't really care to sit around and discuss which of you is the most awesome.
Klaris is drawing up a contract with the Nydamian government.
What's important is that we all made tons of money here, right?
Our contract's in!
Ohh, ohh, that reminds me! I went out and bought Ferrari!
Oh, yeah? Did you get the new 706 or something?
The whole company, silly!
How's Medusa doing?
Help me...
Help me... Help me...
She's just fine. See?
I feel so bad for her.
Can you imagine what it'd feel like to be under constant threat of death?
Hey, that's just how it is--Medusa's mortal fear is what's making us rich.
But even so, did we really need to set up base for Ishida Finance in the Marshall Islands?
The only thing keeping those islands up is the levees.
Hey, why are you feeling sorry for software?
The Marshalls are a tax haven, plain and simple. And I like the realism.
If Medusa wants to stay alive,
the only way she can do it is by reducing carbon emissions.
It's not that I'm feeling sorry for software.
It's just... being involved in the construction for so long,
you get kind of attached, you know.
Fine, fine. Karin, what's our next target for Medusa?
Help me... Help me... Help me... Help me...
Right. I wonder where she'll look next.
Help me... Help me... Help me... Help me...
Okay, I'll help you.
Just scan the entire carbon market and look for any vulnerabilities you can find.
You have the ability to do that, you know.
You can hack into any system, anytime, anywhere.
Vulnerabilities... Vulnerabilities...
There have to be some.
The system is vulnerable
Vulnerabilities...
Vulnerabilities... Vulnerabilities...
wherever actual carbon rates are misvalued,
creating discrepancies between that and the monetized carbon balance.
I found one! I found one! I found one!
Nydamia, huh?
Me, me! Leave that one to me, okay?
I found one! I found one!
Hold on just a second.
Klaris is drawing up a contract with Nydamia right now.
Contract concluded!
Zhang!
Zhang!
Going well on my end, too.
Don't worry.
I have bought up Nydamia's industrial sector.
We've invested plenty in Nydamia's industrial zone.
All we have to do now is sell it off at peak price.
All we have to do now is sell it.
And take fees for the carbon debt clearance!
You mean sell it at a huge profit... plus our fee for reducing monetized carbon!
Good, foreign funds started flowing into now debt-free Nydamia!
Just look at all the money flowing into Nydamia!
I think it's time...
Maybe about now...?
Not yet.
No, not yet.
Prices haven't hit a plateau yet.
It still hasn't reached peak value.
Money, money, oh how I lurve money!
Money! Money! Kaching, kaching!
Karin...
Karin...
I think I'm gonna come!
Uhnnn... it's like an orgasm!
Now!
Do it now.
Offer all our investments in Nydamia for sale!
Selling all Nydamian assets now!
Yes! Big profits again!
Woo-hoo!!
Who should I buy next, sweetie?
Where should we buy up next? Maybe over here?
What about these guys?
Or maybe buy up this one here?
Magic time is over.
The magic hour is over for now.
Talsian, you can hear me, can't you?
Tarsian, you can hear us talking, can't you?
Say something.
Come on, now, say something.
Hey, what's our next-
Hey, so next we should--
My sigil chimed.
Our amulet rang out with a singing tone. Wherefore?
Why?
I posed that very question to Atlas Corporation,
I asked Atlas Corp, but they don't know, either.
but they do not know either.
Lady Mikuni...
Miss Mikuni?
This must be an omen.
I feel this must be... a sign of some wonderful destiny!
Glory is sure to rain down on you...
From now on, Miss Mikuni, surely glory will shine down... and crown you!
You haven't been here very long, were you?
That's right... you haven't been with us for very long, have you?
So what?
Why do you say that?
Is it so wrong to tell Lady Mikuni what you're thinking?
Is it wrong for me to share with Miss Mikuni the thoughts that are in my heart?
No. I pity you...
No...
You pity me?
It's just a tragedy.
I dislike lies.
A tragedy...?
That's the fifth one this month.
We do not take pleasure in lies.
Now, I have to find another retainer to replace her...
She is the fifth one since the beginning of the month.
It's fine.
Now we will have to find another attendant to replace her.
There are plenty of people in the lower world.
Just so.
Make sure your air systems are working.
Are there not abundantly many people for the taking?
My ears popped!
In the lower realms.
A slight pressure differential is applied...
Everyone make sure your air supplies are workin'.
to stop the air outside from getting in.
Wait, my ears just popped! I felt a pop.
Check your backup filters.
That's 'cuz of the extra air pressure in your suit.
If your protective gear breaks, they'll save you.
It's just a little bit, to keep the outside air from comin' in.
But even then, they'll only last about an hour at most.
Now everyone check your secondary air filters.
Our goal is to ascertain the location of the artillery squad.
If you get a rip in your protective suit, that secondary air filter'll save your life.
This is only reconnaissance.
But be careful--they only last an hour.
Let's go.
Our objective is simple: Verify the location of the enemy artillery.
It's no good. It's waterlogged here too.
Remember, this is just a recon job.
There must be a lake above us.
Let's head out.
We'll go on ahead for a little way and exit from there.
Goddamnit... this one's all fulla water too.
Be careful.
There must be a pond sittin' right on top of us.
You won't last even five minutes if you fall into a lake.
Let's go on for a bit and climb above up ahead.
And we won't be able to save you, for fear of getting infected ourselves.
Careful, everyone.
We're almost at the estimated launch site.
I doubt you'd last even five minutes if you fell into that pond.
We couldn't jump in and save you anyway. We might get infected ourselves.
Almost there... We're close to Furukawa's best estimate for the launch site.
Takehiko!
Takehiko!
What are they doing?
What are they doing here...?
They seem to be looking for something.
Investigating, I think.
Why would the military be investigating?
Why the hell's the army pokin' around here...?
It wasn't one of their artillery teams?
So it wasn't one of their artillery squads after all...?
It looks that way.
It would seem not.
How did you... I didn't sense anything!
H-How'd you do that?! I had no idea you were even behind us...!
I'm not as hyper as you guys.
Let's just say I can keep my cool better than you clowns.
You're part of the Metal-age, aren't you?
You're Metal Age, aren't you?
I'm not part anything but...
I'm not Metal Age.
I'm fully transsexual!
I'm a transsexual!
If I wasn't wearing this stupid thing, he'd have been mine...
That shot would've nailed him if I hadn't been wearing this stupid thing...!
Takehiko!
Takehiko!
Kuniko, you safe?
Kuniko, you all right?
Momoko-san and I are fine.
I'm all right. Momoko's here and she's fine too.
Make sure you aren't followed and head back to the station!
Start headin' back to the station, and make sure you ain't followed!
Roger!
Roger!
Hurry, Momoko-san!
Momoko, you have to keep up!
Wait up...
Just slow down!
You don't have much stamina for someone who used to do Judo.
For someone who used to do judo, you sure don't have much stamina.
Judo is about endurance...
Judo takes endurance,
not about running fast.
but no one ever asked us to run any laps.
You were once an Olympic gold medal prospect, and you're whining about this?
This from someone who might've been a crown jewel in the Olympics. What a wimp!
Oh, speaking of gold, I got mine taken away... in the surgery.
Ah... I lost my jewels, all right.
But it wasn't in the Olympics, though.
Huh...?
Oh, I get it.
Oh, I get it.
But a cross-dresser who gives up his gold gets the silver, too.
But you know what? A tranny who loses his jewels gets white pearls in return.
The silver? What do you mean by that?
Pearls?! What does that mean?!
If you want me to tell you, then let's get out of this jungle alive.
If you really want me to tell you, then let's get out of this poison swamp alive.
Hey, tell me! What's a transvestite's "silver"?
Hey, come on! You gotta tell me! What are a tranny's "white pearls"...?!
I want to know, too!
I'd like to hear this myself.
Dammit, it's so hard to move in these things...
Shit... It's so completely impossible to move in this thing.
Can't be that hard considering you've been rambling on about gold and silver the whole time...
Oh, you're breaking my heart. Too hard to keep chatting about jewels and pearls?
Kuniko!
Kuniko!
It's no use.
Don't bother.
Answer me.
My turn to ask questions.
What's the army doing here?
First off, what the hell is the army doing here?
I don't have to answer you.
I don't have to answer questions from you.
Even if I'm a prisoner.
Even if you have taken me prisoner.
Why did my grandmother's sword resonate with yours?
Why did my grandma's dagger and your dagger resonate together like that?
There's another sword like that?
You're saying there's another dagger like mine?
You know something?
Do you know something?!
Like I'd tell you even if I did!
Even if I did, I'm not talking!
You're not bad for a soldier.
I have to admit, you've got balls for a soldier.
If you ever decide to quit the military, come to Duomo.
If you ever wanna quit the army, come join us in Duomo.
I'll recommend you for the Metal-age.
I'll be sure and put in a good word for you with Metal Age.
Man, that was some crazy-ass stunt you pulled, taking off your protective gear in the jungle.
I swear, young lady.
I couldn't help it; it was hard to move in it.
That was nuts, taking off your protective suit in the middle of a poison swamp.
We have to get back immediately.
What else could I do? It's too hard to move in this thing.
You might be infected with a nasty disease.
Come on. We need to get back now.
Don't scare me like that...
You might be infected with a nasty disease!
And the enemy?
Don't try to scare me like that.
Polka dots.
The enemy?
No, I mean... they were members of the Metal-age.
It was polka dots.
I mean...! A Metal Age member, like we thought.
Digma 2, huh?
Digma 2, huh?
Never mind. They're panicking too.
Uh...?
So, we found nothing artificial then. No explosive residue or anything else, huh?
Nothing. They're just as freak
Yes.
We didn't even find any trace of its emplacement.
So, there's a force with a new weapon hiding here in the jungle?
What do you mean?
Just what I said.
Carbon Observation Satellite Icarus detected no carbon dioxide in old Ikebukuro.
An artillery attack with no carbon dioxide emissions?
Soichiro, what are you thinking?
No idea.
You're better at analysis than I am.
Maybe the forest is baring its fangs at us?
So you didn't find a single metal fragment at the sites of impact?
We were bombarded.
There should at least be a few shell fragments lying around.
But why?
It's the Atlas Corporation again.
They used Duomo as an test site for a new weapon!
That's...
They're about to announce the results of the Atlas ballot!
What?
I'm finally getting to Atlas this time!
No way! How many years do you think I've waited to go there?
You guys...
The Metal-age is an anti-government group.
You're not supposed to look forward to the government's Atlas Lottery...
Huh?
Momoko-san...
What's with that look?
A transsexual must always put exude pride!
You're right.
We're going to Atlas and bringing back Tropical Fish.
That's our dream!
But what about Kuniko?
Only those selected can go to Atlas; you'll have to say goodbye to her.
The next selected person is:
Congratulations, Mr. Tetsuo Kumagai.
Why?
Why you?!
I'd like a word with you, Lord of Atlas.
The seals have resonated.

▶ [Shinji]_Shangri-La_-_03_[65252DAE]

Hurry.
You've got to hurry.
You must finish Atlas before this child is born.
That same old dream again?
Yeah. I haven't had it in a while.
I wonder what it means...
Why would I dream about Atlas?
And that voice...
They may be memories from before you were born.
What?
Your birth mother lives in Atlas after all.
Oh, I see...
Wait, what?
What did you just say, Grandma?
You'll take these pickled veggies with you, won't you?
I don't care about that!
Didn't you just say something really important?
The time will come for you to find out for yourself.
One day.
Kuniko!
What are you doing?
Everybody's waiting!
Wait up, guys, I'm bus-
Here you go, young'uns. Take these.
Grandma!
Wow, thank you!
We're not done talking ye-
C'mon. C'mon.
Wait, I haven't even put my shoes on yet!
You look just fine.
We've got to hurry.
Are you sure this is based on a reliable source?
Furukawa said he was certain.
Here it comes!
Move out!
Congratulations, Mi-ko!
Thank you, everybody!
Here! These are from Grandma.
This'll be the last time I eat these pickled vegetables, won't it?
Either eat or cry. Don't do both!
But...
I guess it can't be helped.
Where's Momoko-san?
I haven't seen her.
Takehiko's not here, either.
What are they thinking, skipping out on a farewell party?
Don't worry about it.
I feel really bad that someone like me won the Atlas Lottery.
Oh, come off it. Everyone's celebrating with you!
That's right. Think happy thoughts!
So, what do you want to do when you get to Atlas?
Huh? Hm, let me see...
I want to eat French cuisine!
And Italian! And Chinese...
Food. I knew it.
But my greatest desire is to revive Tropical Fish.
Tropical Fish...
That's the gay bar you ran with Momoko-san, isn't it?
No, it wasn't a gay bar! It was a burlesque show!
It was pretty famous in Roppongi!
Every day, we pulled in huge audiences, and back then...
we shone as bright as the brightest star.
So... when I go to Atlas, I'll definitely restore the glory...
But I won't let you keep all of it for yourself!
I was busy getting dressed.
That signboard... You kept it?
Of course. Have you forgotten our promise?
Yeah. We swore...
that we'd go to Atlas together and revive Tropical Fish.
Wait, are you going to give it to me?
You're really giving it to me?
Of course!
I'll do my best!
I'll work hard and make it a fabulous place!
Goodbye, everyone!
Take care.
Contact us once you've settled in.
I will.
Everyone... I love you all.
Thank you!
Take care!
Takehiko never showed up...
That idiot.
Goodbye! Good-
T-Takehiko...
Farewell!
I will! I'll do my best!
So, come to my burlesque show, you hear me!
Takehiko, you're so cool!
We're heading back!
Get a move on!
I want some!
Have you got any flour or bread?
Is there any medicine in there?
Stop pushing!
We'll do this in an orderly manner!
We have Atlas-brand ham, too!
Hey, wait!
Don't push!
They're really going at it.
Stop it!
Don't accept things that Metal-age have stolen.
What did you say?!
Have you forgotten already?
Because of you guys, we were attacked by the army!
My roof was blown away!
The military did that on their own!
Yeah, that wasn't our fault!
They attacked us because you steal from the country!
Thieves!
Who do you think patched us up when we were wounded?
Shut up!
We're working for Atlas and getting paid!
We don't need to steal from them.
You people with men in your households are lucky!
What are old people like us meant to do?
We should all help each other out!
That's why we rely on Metal-age.
What if we end up being classified as terrorists because of them?
That's right!
What if we never get into Atlas because of you?!
That woman...
I see...
She had a baby last year but lost it to illness...
It wasn't a serious illness, but it's hard to get real medicine in the hospitals here.
Metal-age needs to get the hell out
