Kuromukuro (2016) s02e02 Episode Script

Difficult Choices

1 Kennosuke! Kennosuke! Kennosuke! Yuki…hime… SURGERY IN PROGRESS Mother? His condition seems stable.
You should get some rest, too.
But… Let the experts take care of him.
The medical team are doing their best.
Trust them.
EVACUATION PLAN ANNOUNCEMEN SHIPS TOWED TO SHANGHAI UNDER DESTROYER ESCOR Good morning, my lady.
Good morning, Sebastian.
REMOVAL CENTER It would seem many people are leaving this place.
Father? We're moving? To Spain? Yes.
To grandpa's place in Madrid.
Why? – Because— – Because it isn't safe here! Tateyama has become a dangerous place.
What if an alien attacks the school again? But… to tell me that so suddenly… It is sudden.
But there's no talking mom out of this.
She also told me to quit my job at the Research Institute.
Of course I did! Do you understand how dangerous a place that is? Yes, but I'm currently doing important work.
I don't want to abandon it.
You should leave anyway.
It's not that simple! I don't want to move.
I don't even speak Spanish.
That's fine.
You'll learn it quickly if you can't use Japanese.
I haven't even been to Nagoya.
Spain is a great place.
The food is delicious, and the women are wonderful.
Even compared to you? This isn't funny! Hey, did you know? The convenience store opposite the station will close this week.
Really? Well, with the dwindling customer numbers, it's not surprising.
I think our cultural festival put the nail in the coffin.
How unfortunate.
That place sold such great crêpe, too.
The person who stabbed Ouma-kun was… Yes, yes, she looked very much like Shirahane! She didn't just "look like" Shirahane.
The two were identical! If Shirahane's identical to an alien, does that mean she's— Good morning! Shirahane-san… G-good morning.
What? Is something wrong with my face? Well, the face of the alien who showed up at the festival— Shirahane-san, is Ouma-kun alright? Yes, Kennosuke is fine.
I see.
Sorry for giving you reason to worry.
Listen, Kaya, how would you react if I said I was transferring? What? You too? My dad's quitting the Research Institute and returning to his country.
Many are switching schools following that cultural festial.
If they want to flee, let them flee.
I'm staying.
There are things here that I need to protect.
In truth, it's more like you need protection, no? It's all that stupid samurai's fault.
Stupid samurai's? Of course! Everything has gone to crud since he showed up.
It's all Ouma's fault! Are you serious? It's actually more like he was protecting us.
He didn't protect anything! But they say the damage in America was much worse.
I even heard on the news that Las Vegas was destroyed.
You don't need to tell me that.
Uh… well… Alright, enough toxic remarks.
Mika? You're finally here, you truant.
You skipped all the post-festival cleanup work.
Huh? I didn't mean to! Yeah, right.
Has Ken-chan gotten better? Oh, yes, much better.
His body is special, after all.
Really? His condition seems stable.
Sophie? Good morning.
Whoops! Let's go.
Carlos, we're gonna have a talk after this.
Huh? Princess! He's the only survivor.
All the others have died.
Princess… Is he to pilot the Relic (Mukuro)? Yes.
Unbelievable.
Just unbelievable.
Hausen-dono? Really… the wound's completely healed! Where does the energy needed to regenerate all that come from? This is completely healed.
This is wrong! I wanted to see how the recovery progressed.
I'll be the first one to dissect you.
I won't let anyone else touch you with a scalpel.
R-right.
You really shouldn't record this, Kaya.
Here she comes.
What? Why are Akagi and Kaya here? That's because I was afraid you'd kill me.
Well, she certainly could.
Truth is, I was expecting Carlos to confess.
Seriously? I should have known.
You really are utter morons.
Huh? You have some time now, right? Help me a little.
All three of you.
I need to record a cosrom for the winter event.
Cosrom? That's what cosplay circle (doujin) videos are called.
And I'd like you to record it.
You seem awfully confident that we'll agree.
The cosplay world is tough, so I need something that will make me stand out.
But I don't want it to be something stupid.
This doesn't sound very convincing.
Haven't you shot anything before? Only photos.
But now I want videos.
After all, videos will get me more attention, right? Sounds good.
Also, Carlos has lots of your cosplay photos saved.
Really? How did you know? Let's talk about that.
Uh, well, that's not… Which one of my costumes did you like the most? What kind of cosplay are you doing, Ogino? You owe me for helping you at the festival.
I'll make you return the favor.
Well, what cosplay do you have in mind? GAUS will be piloted by only one person? Yes.
The modifications to enable that are complete.
Seriously? As such, Liu Shen Mi and Mozumi Toshiyuki will now be pilots, not navigators.
This will strengthen our force.
But, Major, we don't have machines to pilot.
We're receiving parts from which to assemble a new GAUS.
One of you will be its pilot.
Sir, if I may.
I think Sophie and I would operate the GAUS much better together— Captan Mozumi.
Sophie Noelle's parents have ordered her to return to France.
Everything will be alright.
Kennosuke? You've come a bit too late.
Hausen-sensei? Ouma-kun isn't here anymore.
TOYAMA SPECIAL SHREDDED KOMBU ICE CREAM No way… It really is unfortunate.
There were many things I wanted to research… But he recovered so quickly! Yes, I understand.
Give mother my best regards.
Bye.
I told you so many times already! I'll give you the money later.
Your order has been received.
Please insert cash.
I don't have any money at the moment! But I, Ouma Kennosuke Tokisada, would never even think about eating and running away.
Your order has been received.
Please insert cash.
Please give me something to eat! Please! Thank you for your payment.
Please pick up your food.
What were you doing with this machine? It's embarrassing, so please stop.
Sophie-dono! I feel much better now.
You ate about as much as a horse would.
If you want it, you're welcome to have it.
Are you certain? Yes.
Just looking at it sates my hunger.
You have my gratitude.
Are you going to be okay, eating so much? Yes.
At any rate, I'm still very hungry.
The food I get in the hospital from Hausen-dono is not nearly enough for me.
Are you imagining something again? Nothing.
I see.
TOYAMA SPECIAL SHREDDED KOMBU ICE CREAM I'm glad sensei was able to heal you.
Now I can return to my country with no regrets.
My parents ordered me to return when they learned that I was actually fighting in the GAUS.
The Sophie from just a while ago would obey them immediately.
COARSE/SMOOTH RED BEAN PASTE But, now I'm hesitant.
To hesitate is human.
Stay here, disobeying my parents, or return to France.
However, a warrior must be able to make a decision and trust her own judgment.
That's right! I must make my own choice! Alright, my choice is the coarse red bean paste! Huh? Sophie-dono? I wanted to order… They are a disgrace to Efidolg.
The primordial fear? What are these girls seeing, exactly? Captain Lefil.
I, Imusa, shall be the next to go.
Wait, Imusa.
We need to know what happened to Fusnarnie.
We shouldn't rush it.
But, Yoruba… We already know.
Fusnarnie has been killed.
Looks like his strategy was flawed.
Just as I thought, there is something buried down there.
Indeed, we should investigate.
That task… please let me, Muetta, carry it out.
You think yourself worthy, after all that's happened? Otherwise, I won't be able to restore my honor.
In such a case, I'd rather die! Captain Lefil! Please assign this task to me! Mirasa? Muetta? No, Muetta-neesama… Let us set aside our differences and work together to redeem ourselves.
Hm.
Such folly.
Kennosuke! Yukina.
What are you doing out here? You're wounded! – About that— – What if you open that wound again? You should return at once! I've already recovered.
You're always exposing yourself to danger.
Huh? You've recovered? See for yourself.
You really have… Cover yourself, you pervert! What was that? TOYAMA SPECIAL SHREDDED KOMBU ICE CREAM Could that be shredded kombu ice cream? Coarse red bean paste? Or smooth? What? The coarse paste is just perfect.
Good choice, Yukina.
Uh, listen… We really look alike, don't we? Me and that Efidolg woman… Is he to pilot the Relic (Mukuro)? Yes.
The first time I saw you, I thought "she looks just like the princess".
However, that wasn't true.
The princess and you are two different people.
Still, that girl… Are we that similar? It's not just about appearance.
She was the very same princess Yukihime.
If… if that person comes here again, what do you intend to do, Kennosuke? Well… Muetta-neesama, should we really just rush in? They will know we're coming.
But… Let's go! I must hurry.
