Needy Girl Overdose (2026) s01e02 Episode Script

- DIE
I'LL KILL YOU
- I'll kill you.
- I'll kill you. I'll kill you.
I'll kill you.
- That's it for tonight's stream!
Let's all hang out again soon!
- Die, die, die, die. I'll kill you. Die!
- Reality's absolute trash,
disgusting as hell.
- But don't go overboard and do anything
stupid just 'cause you're bored, okay?
- I'll kill you. I'll kill you.
I'll kill you.
- Get plenty of sleep. Good night.
- Me too! Me too! Me too!
- Bless!
It should've been me, too!
One-hit poison straight into every otaku heart.
00:01:59,010 Deadly Poison Denpa Girl Purple Lollipop!
The Silver Knight shrouding your reality.
I, Nechika, will escort you
to our own private hell!
The black rose is a symbol of curses.
Rejoice! Hell's Blood Rose Michica
will hate you until the day you die.
As long as you want it, otaku,
- Karamazov will show you an eternal dream
with our sweet poison.
- DEADLY POISON DENPA GIRL
PURPLE LOLLIPOP
And that's why I said we've got
a big announcement today, right?
You wanna know? You really
wanna know, my little otakus?
Well, I guess I have no choice.
Aren't we, Karamazov,
the hottest streamer group right now?
- We're obviously planning
to take over the whole scene,
- MICHICA GOKUBARA
but there's still one washed-up relic
refusing to give up her seat.
- Unforgivable, right?
- NECHIKA-SAMA
So that's why,
one of these days, I'll be the one
to deliver the final rites.
And as the first step,
Karamazov will be holding a collab
interview event with none other than
the ultra-cutest angel herself, KAngel!
When are you finally going to retire?
You're half-assed at both
singing and dancing.
Back to selling your face again?
Zero talent.
That live singing was so bad
I thought my ears were going to break.
P!
I worked really hard
on today's stream!
I'm fine. I'm not holding anything in.
I'm seriously not bothered at all.
For. Real.
The loud, annoying fans!
The nasty, lurking haters!
They don't bother me at all.
I wish I could tie them up
and drag them through the streets.
Oh, and maybe I'd
just peel their skin off
as slowly as possible
so they don't pass out.
They're like bugs
that swarm around lights.
I don't care one bit.
I'm happy.
I'm with P, the person I love most
in the world, so I can do anything.
P, we're together forever.
Even though "forever" is a lie.
Come to think of it, I feel like
I said yes to some invitation.
I think I only agreed because
they were being super pushy,
but what was it again?
Oh well!
It's probably nothing important.
Hey, P, what should we do
for fun today?
Let's prove the parasol is
the fastest thing in "Gourmet Race."
Um, is it really okay for me
to be here with the three of you?
One extra spectator won't
change anything. Don't concern yourself.
You'll be seen by tens of thousands
of nobodies regardless.
Anyway, you said
you wanted to discuss something?
I did say I wanted to talk,
but I didn't expect to get called in
right before a Karamazov stream.
Figures that a friend of Michica's
would be so cute.
Nechika-sama!
Your fans are going to kill me.
So what if they do?
Let's just enjoy ourselves until then.
Don't do anything that ends up
getting my friend murdered.
Yeah, yeah.
A friend of high-maintenance Michica is
rarer than a national treasure, after all.
Should I kill you first?
Your friend says that, but she suddenly
gets insecure at night sometimes.
She was like that
back in middle school, too.
What did you tell her?
So, Kache, what did you want
to talk about?
It sounds shallow and pathetic
when I say it out loud.
But I keep wondering
what my value even is.
Compared to all of you, this is such a
basic, boring problem. It's stupid, right?
Go on.
The other day, I did a guest shift
at a theme cafe for the first time.
I flirted with otaku guys,
sold them this version of myself,
and walked away
with tens of thousands of yen.
I turned my youth into cash.
A piece of my life for a daily wage
of like several thousand yen.
Then I went home,
and I'm not even sure if I like him,
but I let my boyfriend
have his way with me.
It's not like I hate him
enough to break up.
He's pretty decent-looking, I guess.
And it does feel nice
to be wanted by someone.
When I say it out loud, it just sounds
so dumb, and so painfully ordinary.
I wanna di—
You're just using the
feeling of being desired
to reassure yourself that you have value.
The sleazy creeps at those theme cafes,
the girls who milk
their selfie accounts for donations,
the guys who throw money at those girls,
the boyfriends who leech off them,
they're all equally trash.
For now, anyway.
If you're giving people dreams
they can't see in their everyday lives,
then getting paid for it
isn't such a bad thing.
Then the three of us
are guilty too, aren't we?
If we're getting paid to sell dreams,
then all we have to do is keep shining.
Being diamonds, unscarred,
that never crack.
That's our value.
Crime and punishment.
So? You think youth is the only thing
that's worth anything?
Well
If you really were someone
with no value beyond that,
I don't think Michica
would've let you get close.
Oh? She lets you get close?
I mean, I'm happy you'd say that,
but I'm just a vocational student.
Ever watched tokusatsu shows?
Didn't think so.
You know those heroes
who transform with a belt?
Most of them start out
as total plebs.
Plenty of them
are unemployed nobodies.
Sure, there are exceptions,
but one day, out of nowhere, they end up
becoming heroes by sheer circumstance.
They might've been decent people
to begin with,
but if they start out as
straight-up paragons
of justice, today's
twisted kids can't relate.
Streamers are the same as a Rider belt.
The only difference is which button
you press, the belt or "Go Live."
The next moment, you're a hero
on the other side of the camera.
If you're transforming, then you're free
to play whatever persona you like.
Wear whatever mask you want.
Anyone can be the star of the show.
But they're too scared to stand
in the spotlight and dance.
The screws in their heads, their so-called
common sense, gets in the way.
They take comfort in the fact
that they're "not crazy."
School. Work. Family.
Connections on social media.
A lover's affection.
Even if it's all paper-thin, it still acts
as a safety net, protecting their brains.
So they won't be seen
as "weird" by society.
This purple fossil's
got a few screws loose, though.
Purple fossil?!
That applies to you too, you know.
True.
That's why we live
outside morality and ethics.
From society's point of view,
we're "weird" people.
In the world of normal people,
you're attractive.
You could find happiness there
as much as you like.
The screws in your head
are still in place,
so you can still live
within the bounds of common sense.
Unlike some delusional prince
or a selfish princess
who rejects everyone but herself.
If you ever do lose it and decide you want
to transform, just say the word.
I'll buckle the belt on you.
It's almost time to go live.
All right, let's get back
to that debate from earlier.
I still think she's cute.
I think she's yappy and annoying.
I mean, I do think she's cute, but
I'll kill you. Die.
I'll kill you. I'll kill you.
BLESS
Impressive. You managed to land
a live event with the Angel herself.
She definitely knew about us already.
All it took was a little provocation.
Are you sure about that?
It's not technically a competition,
but people will naturally decide
which side has the momentum.
Still, three against one
doesn't exactly feel fair.
KAngel
DRESSING ROOM
Three against one,
and we're already losing.
You're acting like
early-series Yujiro Hanma.
Shut up! I was just writhing in ecstasy
over the fact that
Karamazov is finally
about to become the strongest!
Whatever. Just open it already.
Ow!
Ouch. Damn it, how dare you
do that to your leader?
Hey, cuties!
Hey, cuties.
OMGKawaiiAngel
Uh Hello.
- I am Deadly Poison Denpa Girl,
Purple Lollipop.
- KAngel DRESSING ROOM KARAMAZOV
Thank you very much for coming today.
Like I said, losing.
This is actually my first time ever doing
a live event collab with someone.
She used to be a fan of yours
before she debuted.
Michica, you dope!
Don't make stuff up like that!
You always said your dream was to play
a fighting game against her, right?
No! I just checked her out once
and kinda got hooked, that's all!
I see
So you're not rooting for me anymore?
Well, I mean, sure,
I admired you a little back then,
but now we've got
serious momentum, too!
Who knows? Maybe there are even more
Karamazov fans here today, huh?
It's not about winning or losing
when it comes to streaming.
I just don't see myself losing.
To everyone gathered here today!
It is our deepest honor to share
this special time with you!
You guys better have a blast!
Wow.
And now, to make this special moment
even more radiant,
we've invited the ultra-cutest angel,
OMGKawaiiAngel.
As a matter of courtesy,
I'll say this first.
Thank you for accepting our invitation.
No, thank you for inviting me.
- I've been curious to see
what the "second place" group is like.
- SECOND PLACE
NOW
Right now, the cool, composed angel
may be in first place,
but if we're talking pure momentum,
Karamazov's ahead.
You're good at hyping the crowd.
Very impressive.
Even though you were shaking
like a fawn backstage.
That's a dirty lie.
Lie or not, the moment
you got flustered, that's points off.
Honestly, you weren't just a fawn.
More like a turtle flipped on its back.
Why are my own teammates
attacking me?
- Wow. I'm honored to be collaborating
with such calm, seasoned "comedians."
- COMEDIANS
- See? These days, even "idols"
know how to get laughs.
- THESE DAYS
- IDOLS
- While you've been
acting all lofty in heaven,
- A LITTLE OUT OF DATE
- haven't you gotten a little out of date?
Maybe.
I'm not really interested
in other streamers.
Then she's not interested in us either.
Or maybe you're just too scared to watch,
afraid someone might overtake you?
That's some anonymous
message-board level bait.
Shut up! Don't lump me in
with internet idiots!
We're all high school dropouts, you know.
Let's all get along as fellow idiots.
Internet High School Dropout Angel!
Don't start friendly fire!
And why are you getting buddy-buddy
with our opponent?!
We're geniuses who saw through
the limits of that tiny school early on.
Don't lump us in with you.
The three of us here
are comrades, aren't we?!
How delightful.
Maybe I'd like to feel
a little fear for once.
Because being at the top
is so lonely.
Are you lonely, KAngel?
Yeah.
That's why I stream. To see everyone.
And everyone comes to see me
because they're lonely, too.
But that isn't an equal relationship.
In the end,
we're just products being evaluated,
and the viewers are
nothing more than
a crowd measuring the
worth of human beings.
The customer isn't a god,
but to them, we have to be as a streamer.
We're the same kind of humans as them,
and yet we're made to live
as gods or princes.
But only the morons who willingly
throw themselves
into that role get to bathe
in a storm of praise.
That's fine.
Because I'm an angel
who guides her otaku.
Sometimes I spiral a little, sure.
But every time that angel coddles them,
the masses grow more foolish and entitled.
If they want to keep
looking away from reality
and stay happy forever, isn't that fine?
They'll probably get dragged back
to reality eventually.
As long as they're happy while
they're watching me, that's enough.
- BLESS
- And while the otaku
are showering us with attention,
- we get to feel like we're dreaming, too.
- Because people treat us that way,
- we're able to play
the characters we chose.
We get to keep being figures in a story.
A story that belongs only to us.
Everyone wants to be the protagonist,
but they wake up from the dream.
They lose the will to
keep the story moving
and slowly drift back to being "normal."
Before they know it,
they've settled into being, "someone
who used to be the main character."
But KAngel is an eternal angel.
That's what makes it lonely.
They can't survive in normal society,
so they throw themselves
into the madness of streaming.
If they fail, then they pretend
to be crazy from the start.
Bold words.
That's your role, Lollipop, as the leader.
It might happen to you someday, too.
Well, even an angel like you
could suddenly betray your otaku
and come crashing down
to earth, you know.
True. Maybe I will
fall from grace someday.
If that happens, Lollipop, make sure
you treasure the memory of being my fan.
Just knowing that someone remembers me
is enough to save me.
I'm telling you, that whole,
"I used to be your
fan" thing was their lie!
Not "used to be." Still are.
No matter how much of an angel you are,
and no matter how much
poisonous denpa I blast out,
it's still sad that we can't
truly face each fan one by one.
Is it?
Maybe we can't reach everyone.
But when someone truly needs me,
I can't help but feel they're special.
"Truly"? They pretend it's real,
then switch favorites in three months.
For example, if someone supports me
sincerely, like you, Lollipop,
it really does stay in my heart.
Those aren't just pretty words. I mean it.
"Sincerely"? I told you,
the "I was your fan" thing was a joke!
When I did my first fighting game stream,
there was this one girl
who sent a superchat, just 500 yen.
She wrote, "I love this game too!
I want to play it with you!"
You almost never get a message that pure
from a girl on a fighting game stream.
I could tell
she really wanted to play with me.
KAngel
You still remember that?
YOU'RE GREAT GENIUS BLESS BLESS SHE'S
IN AWAKENING MODE THERE IT IS! NICE
Mom!
What is it?
Let me use just 500 yen
on your credit card! Please!
What?
- Please! It's only 500 yen!
Yay! Thanks!
WOW! UR TOO GOOD DEADLY POISON DENPA GIRL I
LOVE THIS GAME TOO! I WANT TO PLAY IT WITH YOU!
It sounded cheerful, but somehow
really lonely at the same time. So I knew.
She was lonely, too.
I remember.
Yeah, we lost this one.
If I frame it that way,
my approval rating with the otaku
goes up infinitely, right?
That's an angel's job.
See?! This is exactly how the otaku
end up spoiling streamers!
I'd never send superchats
or anything like that!
This time I just got swept up
in the moment.
I was only showing respect to my senpai!
But someday the popularity's
going to flip.
So just stand there and tremble
until that day comes!
Your fingers are trembling, Leader.
Me, too!
You bitch!
You ruined me, and it's all your fault!
BAD WOMAN
UNEMPLOYED INFLUENCER TYPE
Oh, looks like something perfect
for stream content just showed up!
Oh, a troublesome fan.
That's how it goes. Behind every bit
of validation is just as much hatred.
That girl
Looks like she's a fan of KAngel, not us.
You! Because of you, I've fallen so far!
One of those people who blames others
for their own downfall.
She's exactly the kind of
weak-hearted person you'd expect.
Too bad. The angel doesn't even
seem to remember her.
Shut up. I don't care what you say.
I'm going to kill her right here!
I won't be able to sleep until I do!
Were you calling me?
Now then, which one of them
is really the one with a screw loose?
I can do it!
I'll do it! I'll kill you!
Because of you, I I
P is waiting.
I have to get home.
Half-hearted people can't even
lose their shit properly.
P, are you getting all this?
You know, I really, truly love you, P.
No matter how much I want to die,
or how close I am to bursting into tears,
I can keep living now,
because I'm not alone.
I cherish having the one and only
person in this world who's my lover.
I think I'm going to lose my mind soon.
I can feel it.
I'm swaying between
being an angel and being human,
and the distance between them
is getting thinner and thinner.
Because both of them are real,
the boundary between
them is getting blurry
and my brain might
not be able to handle it.
I can't even imagine what'll happen.
Maybe I won't be able
to come back from the other side.
But that's okay.
If you're there
when that moment comes, P,
I won't be afraid of anything.
Even if I die, or break, or become a god,
we'll always be together.
