1. It was my choice,
Copy !req
2. and my fault...
Copy !req
3. This entire situation happened
because of me.
Copy !req
4. After witnessing
the results of the path I chose,
Copy !req
5. I finally realized that
you were right all along.
Copy !req
6. You explained it to me once,
Copy !req
7. what it meant to be a responsible person.
Copy !req
8. I couldn't understand your words back then,
Copy !req
9. but I do now.
Copy !req
10. It's not about what you've experienced,
Copy !req
11. but the choices you've made.
Copy !req
12. And there are choices only you can make.
Copy !req
13. An adult's
responsibilities and obligations...
Copy !req
14. I'll trust them... and you.
Copy !req
15. Please lead the way
down this twisted path
Copy !req
16. to a different end.
Copy !req
17. Someone must make the choices
Copy !req
18. that lead us to that future.
Copy !req
19. So, Sensei...
Copy !req
20. Please.
Copy !req
21. It's a refreshing morning.
Copy !req
22. The General Student Council
is in chaos
Copy !req
23. after the student council president's
sudden disappearance.
Copy !req
24. It seems the chaos
that overtook the city of Kivotos
Copy !req
25. is finally settling down.
Copy !req
26. Just this, please!
Copy !req
27. The next stop is Abydos High School.
Copy !req
28. Oh! This is my stop!
Copy !req
29. Are you serious, Shiroko?
Copy !req
30. You rode from the Abydos industrial district
and back on a bicycle?
Copy !req
31. That must be hundreds of kilometers!
Copy !req
32. I didn't check how far it was.
Copy !req
33. It was a pleasant ride though. Not too long.
Copy !req
34. Shiroko sure is something.
Copy !req
35. How was your weekend, Serika?
Copy !req
36. M-Mine? I was just...
Copy !req
37. I did some reading at the library!
Copy !req
38. You were at the library this weekend, Serika?
Copy !req
39. I was there as well!
Copy !req
40. I-Is that so? I didn't see you!
Copy !req
41. Anyways! What were you
reading about, Ayane?
Copy !req
42. I was researching a DOHC problem
Copy !req
43. I ran into during building repairs.
Copy !req
44. Ah! Let me explain what DOHC is.
Copy !req
45. The term is short for a type of engine
called a Dual Overhead Camshaft.
Copy !req
46. I thought it'd be
useful information to have.
Copy !req
47. What about you, Hoshino?
Copy !req
48. I did what any old-timer
does over the weekend.
Copy !req
49. Somehow, I'm not surprised.
Copy !req
50. I'm glad everyone had a pleasant weekend.
Copy !req
51. What about you, Nonomi?
Copy !req
52. What did I do over the weekend?
Copy !req
53. I went shopping!
Copy !req
54. I bought some new snacks,
Copy !req
55. a few daily necessities,
Copy !req
56. as well as forty dumbbells or so!
Copy !req
57. (Abydos Foreclosure Task Force
Daily Meeting)
Let's begin our daily meeting.
Copy !req
58. To start, we'll review current events.
Copy !req
59. Kivotos, the Academy City, is composed
of many different school districts.
Copy !req
60. The General Student Council,
led by the student council president,
Copy !req
61. maintains balance between the districts.
Copy !req
62. But just a few days ago,
the student council president went missing.
Copy !req
63. It's most likely due to
her disappearance that
Copy !req
64. so many districts have been experiencing conflict.
Copy !req
65. Speaking of the General Student Council...
Copy !req
66. Um, what was it called again?
Copy !req
67. That peace treaty
between Trinity General School
Copy !req
68. and Gehenna Academy?
Copy !req
69. The Eden Treaty?
Copy !req
70. Yes, exactly!
Copy !req
71. Has that been signed yet?
Copy !req
72. The student council president
was the one facilitating the peace talks,
Copy !req
73. so it's unclear what will happen.
Copy !req
74. I see...
Copy !req
75. Oh, right! Ayane!
Copy !req
76. The owner of Shiba Seki Ramen says
Copy !req
77. that the Kata-Kata Helmet Gang
is up to no good again.
Copy !req
78. The ramen there is delicious.
Copy !req
79. Do you go there a lot, Shiroko?
Copy !req
80. Is that a problem?
Copy !req
81. N-No! It's nothing...
Copy !req
82. Anyway,
Copy !req
83. it's getting harder to maintain security in Abydos.
Copy !req
84. How troublesome...
Copy !req
85. We've requested aid from
the General Student Council several times now, but...
Copy !req
86. With the student council president missing,
Copy !req
87. they're likely too busy to deal with us.
Copy !req
88. It's not like we have all the time in the world either.
Copy !req
89. Thank you very much
for using Kaiser Loans.
Copy !req
90. At the current rate,
Copy !req
91. your debt will be paid off
in 309 years and 2 months!
Copy !req
92. We will see you again next month!
Copy !req
93. 309 years and 2 months?
Copy !req
94. There's truly no end to it.
Copy !req
95. Then, see you tomorrow.
Copy !req
96. - Goodbye!
- Bye-bye!
Copy !req
97. That took long enough.
Copy !req
98. Hey, hey!
Copy !req
99. I must've heard you wrong.
Copy !req
100. Are you little girls
Copy !req
101. trying to tell me
that my hairstyle is old-fashioned?
Copy !req
102. Just bask in the coolness of my 'do!
Copy !req
103. You're the coolest, Boss!
Copy !req
104. You're so charming, Boss!
Copy !req
105. - Exactly!
- Yes, correct!
Copy !req
106. Is it wrong of us to call something
old-fashioned, old-fashioned? Huh?
Copy !req
107. H-How dare you keep saying that word?
Copy !req
108. Minions, punish them!
Copy !req
109. Are you still talking big?
Copy !req
110. Your stupid bullets
Copy !req
111. could never
Copy !req
112. ever hurt us!
Copy !req
113. He's still alive.
Copy !req
114. Is he sunbathing?
Copy !req
115. Heatstroke?
Copy !req
116. Water...
Copy !req
117. - Please...
- Here.
Copy !req
118. It's an energy drink.
Copy !req
119. Want some?
Copy !req
120. Wow! I'm revived!
Copy !req
121. Thank you so much.
Copy !req
122. Did you abduct this man, Shiroko?
Copy !req
123. It finally happened...
Shiroko committed a crime!
Copy !req
124. Chill out, everyone!
Copy !req
125. What's important is covering her tracks
before people find out!
Copy !req
126. It's not like that at all.
Copy !req
127. He said he was trying
to get to our school.
Copy !req
128. What?
Copy !req
129. So, he's a visitor?
Copy !req
130. Exactly.
Copy !req
131. - I see.
- Right...
Copy !req
132. I knew Abydos was a desert district,
Copy !req
133. but it was so hot I got heatstroke
while walking out in the sun,
Copy !req
134. and the next thing I knew I was passed out.
Copy !req
135. Well... If it's okay with you,
Copy !req
136. can we ask what your name is?
Copy !req
137. Oh! Of course.
Copy !req
138. I'm Sensei, from Schale,
the Federal Investigation Club.
Copy !req
139. It's nice to meet you.
Copy !req
140. Does that mean he's
from the General Student Council?
Copy !req
141. Right.
Copy !req
142. Our requests for aid have
finally been answered!
Copy !req
143. That's great, Ayane!
Copy !req
144. Yes! Our persistence
really paid off!
Copy !req
145. We'll finally be able to restock on supplies!
Copy !req
146. Okay, everyone,
Copy !req
147. let's get to business.
Copy !req
148. What's this?
Copy !req
149. It's for all of you.
Copy !req
150. Thank you so, so much!
Copy !req
151. We'll finally have more
ammunition and supplies!
Copy !req
152. Hoshino's going to want to hear about this.
Copy !req
153. She's probably napping
in her usual spot.
Copy !req
154. I'll drag her back here!
Copy !req
155. - By the way, Sensei.
- Hm?
Copy !req
156. We haven't introduced ourselves yet.
Copy !req
157. That was Kuromi Serika,
a first-year student.
Copy !req
158. My name is Izayoi Nonomi!
I'm in my second year!
Copy !req
159. Nice to meet you!
Copy !req
160. I'm Okusora Ayane,
a first-year student.
Copy !req
161. Sunaookami Shiroko.
Second-year.
Copy !req
162. Well, I met you first,
so you knew that.
Copy !req
163. Ah. Not that I think that makes me
more important than anyone else.
Copy !req
164. There's one more member.
Copy !req
165. The current president of the Foreclosure Task Force,
Copy !req
166. Takanashi Hoshino.
Copy !req
167. The five of us make up
Copy !req
168. the Abydos Foreclosure Task Force.
Copy !req
169. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
170. Nice to meet you too.
Copy !req
171. Oh geez, Serika.
Copy !req
172. Be more gentle with this old-timer, please.
Copy !req
173. What nonsense are you spouting?
Copy !req
174. You're the president,
and you need to act more like one!
Copy !req
175. Oh... Takanashi Hoshino here.
Copy !req
176. Pleasure to meet you.
Copy !req
177. I'm Sensei, from Schale!
Copy !req
178. The pleasure's all mine.
Copy !req
179. - Hey, Sensei.
- Hm?
Copy !req
180. I'll take you on a tour.
Copy !req
181. The desertification in Abydos
is worse than I thought.
Copy !req
182. Is it?
Copy !req
183. It's been like this
Copy !req
184. ever since I enrolled.
Copy !req
185. I haven't seen any other students here.
Copy !req
186. Is it just the five of you?
Copy !req
187. Yes.
Copy !req
188. The truth is,
Copy !req
189. this school is in severe debt,
Copy !req
190. and so everyone left. Except us.
Copy !req
191. The Foreclosure Task Force has been
taking on whatever jobs we can
Copy !req
192. and repaying the debt bit by bit.
Copy !req
193. That must be difficult for you.
Copy !req
194. The gym needed to be cleaned
a little while ago...
Copy !req
195. But Ayane was sick,
so the four of us had to do it.
Copy !req
196. It was pretty hard. There was
more trash than we expected.
Copy !req
197. We still finished in the end though.
Copy !req
198. And then Ayane scolded all of us.
Copy !req
199. She was mad?
Copy !req
200. What's this room for?
Copy !req
201. It's not used for anything right now.
Copy !req
202. But this is your room
from now on, Sensei.
Copy !req
203. - Really? For me?
- Mhm.
Copy !req
204. The regular office is
overrun with sand.
Copy !req
205. Is this too small for you?
Copy !req
206. It's more than enough. Thank you.
Copy !req
207. Okay.
Copy !req
208. Shiroko, why do you want
to protect this school?
Copy !req
209. Gunshots?
Copy !req
210. A message for Abydos High School!
Copy !req
211. Today's the day we're finally
going to conquer your territory!
Copy !req
212. Huh? The Kata-Kata Helmet Gang?
Copy !req
213. Now? Of all times?
Copy !req
214. Oh geez.
I really just wanted to have a nice, peaceful nap.
Copy !req
215. I'll drive them away like I always do!
Copy !req
216. Everyone! Let's go protect our school!
Copy !req
217. Stay here, Sensei.
Copy !req
218. Shiroko?
Copy !req
219. Watch out!
Copy !req
220. Thank you, Arona.
Copy !req
221. You're welcome, Sensei!
Copy !req
222. Here, Shiroko.
Copy !req
223. Thanks.
Copy !req
224. How tiresome.
Copy !req
225. We're rather low on ammo.
What a pickle.
Copy !req
226. If only our new supplies were here...
Copy !req
227. I see no problem.
Copy !req
228. Shiroko! Wait!
Copy !req
229. Give it up already!
Copy !req
230. We know you're
low on ammunition!
Copy !req
231. Huh? How'd they know that?
Copy !req
232. Don't worry, Ayane.
Copy !req
233. They're no match for us anyway.
Copy !req
234. - Shiroko's creating cover for us.
- Yes!
Copy !req
235. We'll never hand over Abydos High School
to the likes of you!
Copy !req
236. Shiroko?
Copy !req
237. Shiroko! Nonomi!
Copy !req
238. Hoshino!
Copy !req
239. Everyone! Retreat for now!
We'll regroup!
Copy !req
240. They're running around like chickens with their heads cut off!
Copy !req
241. We were right!
They're down to their last bullets!
Copy !req
242. It'll be a fight to the finish!
Copy !req
243. Just how I like it! We'll take them all down in one go!
Copy !req
244. Sensei, if this continues much longer,
the Abydos students will...
Copy !req
245. Let's go!
Copy !req
246. Is everyone okay?
Copy !req
247. We're fine. We can still fight.
Copy !req
248. We can't let them pin us down like this!
We need to spread out.
Copy !req
249. Hey, hey. Are you guys seriously still trying?
Copy !req
250. You don't stand a single chance against us!
Copy !req
251. Take this!
Copy !req
252. We can't handle
much more of this!
Copy !req
253. Damn it! How did we
get cornered by those losers?
Copy !req
254. Everyone!
Copy !req
255. Huh? Who's that?
Copy !req
256. Why is it important to you
to protect this school?
Copy !req
257. Sensei.
Copy !req
258. Why?
Copy !req
259. Because...
Copy !req
260. this school
Copy !req
261. is where we belong.
Copy !req
262. Is that how everyone feels?
Copy !req
263. Of course!
Copy !req
264. Who the hell is this,
swooping in like some hero?
Copy !req
265. You can call me Sensei.
Copy !req
266. Sensei?
Copy !req
267. I'm here to help my students.
Copy !req
268. Sorry, but I have to ask you to leave this school's property.
Copy !req
269. You think you can talk down to me like that?
Copy !req
270. I'll shoot you to pieces!
Copy !req
271. Let's go, everyone.
Copy !req
272. Nonomi, lay down suppressive fire!
Copy !req
273. Roger!
Copy !req
274. Serika, take aim!
Copy !req
275. Damn it! Where are they?
Copy !req
276. Just stay calm?
Copy !req
277. I would've done that
even if you didn't tell me!
Copy !req
278. Nice job, Nonomi, Serika!
Copy !req
279. What's happening?
Copy !req
280. Don't think that you?
Copy !req
281. This old-timer can't look bad
in front of her youngins!
Copy !req
282. Coordinates confirmed.
Copy !req
283. Catch, Shiroko!
Copy !req
284. Nice timing, Ayane.
Copy !req
285. Don't underestimate me!
Copy !req
286. Hey, get a grip!
Copy !req
287. Eek! How embarrassing!
Copy !req
288. Hey!
Copy !req
289. Don't come any closer!
Copy !req
290. Deliver the final blow, Shiroko!
Copy !req
291. I said stay back!
Copy !req
292. W-W-W-W-Wait! I-I surrender!
Copy !req
293. It's over.
Copy !req
294. Ow, ow! That hurts!
Copy !req
295. Please, no! Augh! It hurts!
Copy !req
296. Then leave. Now.
Copy !req
297. Okay, okay! I'm leaving! I'm gone!
Copy !req
298. We'll get revenge one day!
Copy !req
299. We won, Shiroko!
Copy !req
300. Well done!
Copy !req
301. We really managed to
turn the tide there.
Copy !req
302. All thanks to Sensei's help.
Copy !req
303. Not at all. I didn't do anything.
Copy !req
304. It's my job as a teacher
Copy !req
305. to help my students in their time of need.
Copy !req
306. Hmph. We would've beat them
on our own anyway.
Copy !req
307. Bashful as always, Serika.
Don't be so stubborn!
Copy !req
308. Sh-Shut up!
Copy !req
309. Our little Serika is so adorable.
Copy !req
310. You're putting on such a tough front!
Copy !req
311. Stop it already!
Copy !req
312. So, this is... Sensei.
Copy !req
313. The sky blue archive!
Copy !req
314. I pedal on my bike seeking new sights
Copy !req
315. We'll break the monotony,
no longer trapped in place
Copy !req
316. Daydreaming on the rooftop,
gazing at a sky so blue
Copy !req
317. Those clouds like whales are always changing
Copy !req
318. We'll embrace a past that can't be altered
Copy !req
319. Sharing juice in this world made of sand
is a taste so divine
Copy !req
320. If I were here alone, here without all of you
Copy !req
321. I couldn't laugh, I couldn't cry
Copy !req
322. A fateful coterie
Copy !req
323. Even if the world's memories blow away
like grains of sand one day
Copy !req
324. The sky, sea, wind, and you,
our youth will never end
Copy !req
325. It's easy to see why we protect what we do
Copy !req
326. Because this is the only place where we belong
Copy !req
327. Strawberry milk...
Copy !req
328. Hi, Arona.
Copy !req
329. I've been waiting for you, Sensei.
Copy !req
