Blood Lad (2013) s01e03 Episode Script

You Had It All Along

1 Listen up, you guys! As of this moment, this territory is under our control! And let it be known! The man who stands above all territory bosses A boss among bosses, the ruler of this land! Remember the name of King Wolf! I thought I told you to quit it with that stupid speech.
Aw, c'mon, let me do it It feels good to say it.
We haven't taken over everything yet.
Then when we do, can I? Suit yourself.
Let's go.
Damn it These guys weren't worth the effort.
It's no fun.
YOU HAD IT ALL ALONG Unlike an intellect such as myself, Wolf's a demon who lets his strength do the talking.
Oh my, it suits you! Shopkeeper, your rebellious fashion sense comes shining through.
How about this one? Are you guys even listening?! See, I don't really care.
Why you! But if you know him, that's perfect.
You can ask him to help you find The Book of Human Resurrection.
It's not that simple.
Yes, we were childhood friends, but now we're both territory bosses.
Meaning, it'd be much easier if we just go there using my powers? That's right.
No way.
I like to use people, but I can't stand people using me.
Okay? So that's how it is Then I'll just have to force you - Cheers! - Cheers! It doesn't get better than this! It's so peaceful when he's gone! Simply the best drink ever! Yoshida's growing into the role pretty nicely, so I say we keep it like this.
We can manage without him.
Right, Deku? What? Hey, I like that look! You've gotten good at this, Yoshida! It's me.
Huh? Boss, you're the best! H- How do I look? Make sure you return that afterwards.
Sowhat happened, Boss?! You're a total mess! Well, you see He got countered - by his own punch - Here, eat this.
And now he's like this.
That explained nothing! That woman The next time I see her, she'll pay for this.
You're okay already? A little demon world's air is all I needed.
Now that's our boss! You can kill him, but he won't die! What'd I do?! Youcome with me.
What? Where are you off to now? West Demon World.
EAST DEMON WORLD To Wolf's territory.
What?! Looks like he's decided to go on his own.
You could've taken him there instead of being a meanie.
You don't get it, do you? I still think he's suspicious.
As the guy who stole your magic? I don't think Fuyumicchi is lying, but I'm not fully convinced that Staz is innocent either.
He's hiding some serious magic.
But is he powerful enough to steal your magic? That's what I want to confirm.
Girl, why go through all the trouble? Why not just come out and say you like the boy? What?! All I'm trying to do is find the culprit And make him your husband, right? Okay, are you guys ready? - No! - Hello? Hey, it's me.
First, you go to the human world and now to someone else's territory?! And why do I have to go along with you, anyway?! Tighten his collar.
Boss, I've called for a carriage.
Good.
- Carriage? What carriage? - No, no, no, no! That was quick.
Hatomune Transport at your service! We'll take you anywhere in the demon world! Get us to the West Demon World.
Boss, let's call a carriage.
Stop being a wuss.
But we still have another 500 kilometers to go.
They run fast, but they count slow.
W-We're riding in this? Come on, Boss! It'd be faster if we called a carriage.
What? Are you telling me my legs are slower than a carriage? Well?! No I didn't mean it that way.
We're just worried about fans storming for your autograph since you're like, the star of West Demon World! We'll never be able to get home with all the girls lining up, you know? That would be a problem.
How do you like the fastest legs in demon world? Please take off these chains! I'm about to get showered by puke! Forget her.
You're almost up.
We'll be crossing through other territories on our way to West Demon World.
That's where your third eye comes in.
Navigate us through a route where we won't run into other bosses.
I can't just do this on the fly, I need Saty to Wait! I might be able to see one! No, I want to see one! Just around here is fine.
You can do that, right? Guess I'll have to The Foreseeing Eagle Eye! What's wrong? Stop the carriage! We're going to crash! Oh Looks like it's finally here.
What the hell? They're not slowing down at all.
Hey! Over here! Stop! Uh This doesn't look good.
Now it's stopped.
It sure did.
It's you Long time no see, Wolf-Boy.
Only you would dare call me that, Staz The "Cherry" Blood! Are youokay? I know it isn't much, but Please take this for the repairs.
N-No? We're sorry! It's been a long time, Staz! You haven't changed a bit yourself.
Sorry about totaling your ride.
Nah, I was just on my way to see you.
- You saved me some time.
- Seems like they're friends.
I've never seen him look like that - even with us, his loyal minions! - Say, did you cut your hair? C'mon, c'mon You're a tough one.
Yes! Oh no! That's Boss's prized figure! I-I'll pay for it But do you have that kind of money? I don't.
The Book of Human Resurrection? You think I'd read such a difficult-sounding book? Guess not Then how about using your authority as boss to help me find it? What? Are you serious? You have no idea how huge my territory is, do you? The majority of West Demon World is mine, you know? I'm not going to go through all that trouble without getting paid.
I figured as much.
Then let's make a deal the old-fashioned way.
If I win, you find me the book.
And if I win? I'll give you this girl.
What? What are you talking about? No I, uh She's not really my type, but if you insist Was my face that disgusting? No, it's just her way of showing that she's happy.
- Bowling?! - Bowling?! That's right.
If it's bowling, there's no way I can lose.
Wait! I don't know how good you are, but there's a real possibility that the unthinkable might happen! You'd think so, right? But Wolf and I are different types of demons.
I'm the type of demon who uses his magic fluidly.
My specialty is attacking from a distance.
Whereas Wolf is the type who uses his magic to strengthen his own body.
He prefers striking directly with his colossal strength.
So, the best he can do is throw the ball with all his might.
But I can move both the ball, andthe pins.
That's playing dirty.
In the end, I'll be the winner.
Looks like they're ready.
What the hell?! I thought you guys were settling this through bowling! The only thing bowling and boxing have in common are the first and last letters! Sounds pretty close to me.
Are you stupid?! Why'd you accept a fight you can't win! Just shut up, will you? Fuyumi Yanagi is at stake! I will bring her back to life, I swear I'm never going to let Wolf have her.
What's taking the guy so long? You don't think he bolted, do you? We have the girl.
He's not going anywhere.
Uh, excuse me What's this outfit for? What am I supposed to be doing here? You're the ring girl.
But this is a school swimsuit I look like a pervert dressed like this.
Boss?! - This chick is serious trouble - Did she do that to him? Is he getting excited over the girl?! You can't find that sort of cheesy reaction even in shonen manga these days! She has a look like that of a small animal.
So helpless.
There's no way she'd survive on her own in the demon world.
Like a bunny rabbit.
She's cute She's really cute! I want to protect her! This match is one I absolutely cannot lose! What the hell is she doing? CAFE THIRD EYE A friend of mine from the west owns me some money.
If I can just get that back What's up? Seems they put some money on a boxing match.
They said they'd pay me back, if they win.
Ready! Box! Break! Don't know what you had in mind by clinching from the bell, but you have no chance against me! Oh my god! - He's down with just one hit! - One! Two! - Hey, no way! - Three! Four! - Maybe I was wrong, after all.
- Five! Six! - Staz-san! - Seven! - Get up, Staz! - Eight! Nine! Staz-san! Had a good dream there? Yeah, the floor was surprisingly comfy.
Then I'll put you back to sleep again! This is bad He's no match against Wolf in close-range combat.
Staz can recover instantly from the damage he takes using his vampire powers, but! He can't keep up this pace.
You have incredible healing powers all right.
Must be that vampire blood of yours.
I could stab you in the heart and you'd still recover in a few seconds.
Butso what?! But what's left after taking all that damage? You can't win unless you fight back! Go ahead! Keep healing! Use up your magic and heal yourself! Each time, I'll crush you down! At this rate, he'll run out of magic! Is Staz-sangoing to die?! Why am I so exhausted? Wait a minute Back there, did he?! This is You finally noticed? You bastard! You've been sucking away my magic all this time! By embedding this thing into me.
Is this a tooth? That's right.
That's my tooth.
The more you hurt me, the more your magic decreased.
Hell yeah! The Chew-Chew Drain! It heals damage sustained from Wolf's attacks by using Wolf's own magic! That's why right now my damage is zero.
While you are empty on magic.
You probably want to stay away until you recover Wait just a minute, that's! "Playback-Payback"! Then again, there's no place to escape inside this ring.
B-Boss! Hey, start counting.
One, two Don't do it.
Stay down.
In your current state, I could even ZIP you.
If you get up, you'll die Or ratherI'll kill you.
What makes you do all this? Is it the book? No, it's not that.
It's something beyond that.
That's the thing you so desperately want! Tell me What is it that you want so badly? What is it that you want so badly that'd you'd force me to transform, Staz?! Boss?! That's a half-assed transformation using mediocre magic.
Answer me! It's the girl Fuyumi Yanagi.
She's a ghost now, but she was once human.
I want to return her to the way she once was.
Return her to the way she was? You're joking, right? You're not that kind of guy.
You trust only yourself and act only for your own sake! What're you going to do after you bring her back to life? What're you going to do with her after she becomes human, Staz?! Shut up It's none of your damn business.
The ZIP? Damn vampire Who's being half-assed now? You say you hate being a vampire, yet you rely on those powers when needed.
Shut up.
I'll kill you.
You're desperate to stay near the tasty human in front of you! Shut up.
You're your own person before being a vampire? Don't make me laugh! I said shut up, you mutt! You idiot, you're going to kill him for real! That's enough! You're two friends hurting one another This is nothing but a nasty fight! Why can't you just get along? I still don't know much about the demon world, or about you two.
But this is wrong Okay, that's it! You?! I, the Travel Judge Woman, shall decide the outcome of this match.
What? And here is my decision: you're both losers! You're both pathetic! And so, with that, you can both disappear from this ring.
B-Boss?! Staz! The fight is over.
You can all go home now.
Thanks for coming.
The bets are off.
What am I going to do now?! Good luck with that Where are we? Beats me.
You know that woman, Staz? Yeah.
She's the one who told me that you had that book.
She's also the one who turned our bowling match into a boxing match.
Huh? She said something about how you were going to cheat and told me to cancel bowling and make it a boxing match.
That woman was manipulating us like puppets.
For what reason? Wanna know? - What kind of joke is this?! - Give us our money back! But I'm not gonna tell it to guys who'd make a girl cry.
Anyway, here.
This is TheBook of Human Resurrection?! No charge.
A special just for you.
So you had this all along?! Stop messing with people, you puffy backpack! Oh, I see You don't want it? I do, stupid! Please stop fighting! Will you stop crying already?! Huh? Where are we? I see Yeah, just as I thought.
- Don't understand a word! - Don't understand a word! What? You guys don't know how to read? You read it then.
Huh? What's it say? "Shave burdock root into thin strips.
Soak in water.
"Drizzle sesame oil in frying pan and fry soaked burdock over high heat "Add carrots, sake, soy sauce" That's the recipe for kinpira gobo, isn't it? Yeah.
Man, can't anyone here read? I can't read either, but I figured out how this book is arranged.
What?! These are like codes.
This book is probably a huge word-based anagram.
To decode it, we'll need to swap every word and recreate the text.
I don't understand a word you said.
Basically, even if we know how to decipher it, doing it would be a huge pain.
In other words, to get the content it'd be faster to directly ask the sicko nerd who wrote this spiteful book.
Who wrote this book anyway.
.
? It must say somewhere in here What's that reaction for? No way in hell can I go ask The guy's in Demon World Acropolis, DEMON WORLD ACROPOLIS where only the elite and prestigious demons are allowed to live where only the elite and prestigious demons are allowed to live The vampire, Braz D.
Blood.
He's my older brother.
Oh good, so he's family? It can't be good if he's shaking like that.
TO DEMON WORLD ACROPOLIS TO DEMON WORLD ACROPOLIS I didn't know you have an older brother.
TO DEMON WORLD ACROPOLIS Shut up.
Don't say anything about him! TO DEMON WORLD ACROPOLIS You don't like your brother? TO DEMON WORLD ACROPOLIS Ugh, don't even go there.
TO DEMON WORLD ACROPOLIS The very thought of him is getting under my skin.
TO DEMON WORLD ACROPOLIS N-Next time on Blood Lad, "To Demon World Acropolis.
" TO DEMON WORLD ACROPOLIS There are only bad kids in the demon world.
