Ajin (2016–…): Season 2, Episode 3 - Episode #2.3 - full transcript

Freeze!

Are you telling me you've never had
anyone important to you in your life?

What about that friend of yours
they said helped you escape?

I don’t need him. Not anymore.

Shut up.

Idiot. Idiot. Idiot! Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!!

Flight TA16 from Haneda to Naha...

...made an emergency landing in the
ocean off of Shizuoka Prefecture.

It’s Satou. There’s no mistake.

...he shot the guards...

and then... Sakurai-san....



...after that... the door... was blown off!

The murders of Mr. Sakurai and Mr. Wakai...

The one responsible for this series of incidents, Satou...

we firmly resolve to place him under arrest,
on our pride and honor as police.

It’s a long road ahead, but the satisfaction we get
from clearing each stage will be exceptional.

Let’s have fun!

Title: I’m always scared.

-Please support Ajin financially when it becomes available to you.-

Ogura-san.

You’re not bumming a smoke.

There are my telomeres.

Tobacco?

You mean the segment of DNA at the ends of chromosomes?

You're well-informed.



I was planning to study medicine.

You mean to be a delinquent.

Here.

I didn’t come for your cigarettes.

Then what do you want?

I see.

And that's why you feel like you're not giving it your all.

To be afraid of change means you lack the guts to do it.

I need to keep it under control.
Bringing out a lot won’t mean anything, otherwise.

Is there some sort of reason?

A boy calls a woman across from him fat.

Ha?

But he’s not a bad kid.

He’s just repeating the kinds of things
his mother always gossips about.

As in the case of the Ajin farmer,

an independent IBM’s behavior
is rooted in its owner’s disposition.

Let’s say you hate humans.

That could cause your IBM to act violently.

If you want to change your IBM...

...change yourself.

People don’t change.

Meh.

Nagai.

Tosaki-san wants to see you.

Alright.

Come on, that's insulting.

There are 13 people left.

Our enemy will definitely show up to attack one of them.

That makes an ambush our best course of action.

We just need to decide who and where...

How about Kishi, who’s next on the list?

We don’t want any more people to die, right?

Rejected.

Kishi-sensei is already in hiding,

and heavily guarded by security.

I don't have the clearance to know his location.

Too bad you aren’t on the list, we could use you as bait.

Shut up, Nagai.

But...given the circumstances, we really only have one choice.

That’s right. The one that meets our conditions
is the fourteenth target,

the Minister of Health, Labour, and Welfare.

What?! We’re just going to watch
as everyone else on the list dies?

All of the targets are under police protection,

and we don’t know when or where they’ll be attacked.

We have no way to get involved.

But for the minister, Tosaki-san
can get wind of his schedule,

and if we have that, we can predict
when and where he’ll be attacked.

Concerning the cases leading up to the minister, we can analyze Satou’s strategy, and see what he tends to do.

Yes. And in the meantime,
I’ll work out how to get us on the scene.

For the present, I’ve obtained some data
on possible sites of attack.

So we’ll make plans based on each of the locations, correct?

Now we just need to figure out how we will fight.

We have three ajin, so they’ll outnumber us,

but since we can study up on the location,
that'll be to our advantage.

Three?!

There’s no way we can use Shimomura-san!

What’s wrong with her?

You can’t make a woman do something this dangerous!

This isn’t P.E. class, you know!

We use everyone we can!
Male, female, young or old!

Hey, you!!

Nakano-kun.

Thanks, but don’t bother.

I don’t intend to neglect my job.

Obviously.

Anyway, ten minute break.

I have an email I must reply to.

How can you be so casual about this, Tozaki-san!

If we rush things, it will get messy.

It won’t be easy for Satou to get Kishi’s location, either.

And one more thing, Nakano.

My name is Tosaki. Get that in your head.

Hey. What do you mean it’s impossible?

Weren’t you just bragging to me about
how you could do anything with that?

There’s a limit to what can be done and can’t be done.

Yo. Any developments?

I've given up.

I tried hacking the servers for the Management Committee
and the Ministry, but I got nothing.

Why don’t we just skip over Kishi, and go for Iwasaki Keita?

03 Kishi Yuuji / 04 Iwasaki Keita / 05 Kai Keiichi

Rejected.

We’ve already decided to go in order this time.

We’ve got to stick to the rules, just like a game.

But we don’t know where he is. This is checkmate.

Games have hacks, don't they?

Even if we don’t know Kishi’s whereabouts,

we can find him if we know where his bodyguards are.

That's right, hack the police department.

Isn't that even more impossi-

Nope, that’s a thing that can be done.

Of course if I were starting from zero it’d take a few days,

but the Ministry’s and the Police's servers are the same,
so there should be a back door.

If I use that, then...

...if I can find it, I...

What the hell is he talking about?

...past the...

I can clear the logs, so the hacking won't be trace-

Dunno. Must be a hack.

I’m done.

Target of police protection, Kishi Yuuji.

Two units are assigned, and they’ve even
pulled in traffic and petty crime units.

It seems as though the enemy has lowered their guard.

Location?

In the mountains.

Can’t you calm down a bit?

You can't keep going like this.

You’re right.

Who’s there?

A ghost!

There are two ways to make an IBM disappear.

Wait it out, or a blow to the head from another IBM.

When two IBMs collide with great force,
particles possessing different information begin to mix.

Their lines cross.

The particles that would normally re-bind can’t contact one another, and both sets of particles dissipate as a result.

That’s why they cancel each other out.

Turn off your phones in class, four-eyes.

It’s Tosaki.

What?

How did they find out?

Yes. Leave it to me. I’ll be back soon.

Is it Kishi-san?

Yeah. They got him.

As soon as the security tightened,
he was assassinated by an IBM.

Shit.

How did they get his location?

That’s unknown.

Until we know how they managed that,
going into hiding is useless.

We can’t stall any more.

We’re down an advantage on our side.

You’ve been skipping out on training with your IBM lately, haven’t you.

Our greatest strength is your IBM.

Learn how to control it as quickly as possible.

Do I make myself clear?

Seems like you’re the telomeres of this team.

The enemy is armed.

It wouldn't hurt to at least learn
how to use a weapon like this.

Try holding it.

Next...

It’s nice that machines do as they’re told.

Huh?!

No rapid-fire button?

Shut up! Just watch!

Huh? It won’t shoot.

Let me see.

Here.

Thank you!

Ouch! Ow ow ow ow!

Stupid! Don’t let go of it!

It hurt my hands!

What are you, a wuss?

Call me a wuss, but I can’t help it if my hands hurt!

Um, can I ask y-

Nagai. You need something?

Er... no.

Later is fine.

I heard from Manabe. Is there something you want?

I was just thinking it’d be better if we had
data on things like weight and height.

It’s fine if we don’t, though.

If you say so.

Nagai... are you lonely?

Wha?!

Am I wrong?

Or maybe you’re lost.

You’re starting to doubt yourself.
How you never consider the feelings of others.

“Maybe I should change.”

Is that it?

That’s not it!

When I speak, it always makes sense.

I’m delivering rational decisions.

Give me one reason why I’d need to change.

Yes.

Exactly.

Nakano is good at earning the trust of others.

If you two were in the same classroom, he’d be the hero,

and you’d be just some annoying kid.

But this isn’t school.

Here, you need the determination
to cut off ethics and emotion.

It's true.

You’re capable of that.

Yeah... I know that.

I see.

Then I was mistaken.

My father was a talented surgeon.

He could be kind to his patients, too,

to the point his discharged patients
would send him letters every year.

But that was his greatest flaw.

When I was 9, he had a patient with
renal failure who couldn’t find a donor,

so he reached out to an organ trafficker.

As a result, he lost everything.

I won’t make the same mistake.

I’m not an idiot.

Intelligence isn’t age-based.

Do as you want.

We’ll just be following the plan.

I have summarized our opinions here.

These are major points for our fight against Satou.

I want everyone to know these well.

Nakano.

You especially.

How do you read this?

Hm? “Infiltrate.”

You want us to do this? We’re not ajin!

Isn’t this your proposal, Nagai?

Yeah. And?

Pretty interesting stuff here!

Hey!

What do you want?

Kei...

Do you know a way to die that feels good?

Ha?

Like the professor said.

Manifesting an IBM is basically luck.

Yeah.

A demi-human’s IBM particles become most highly concentrated when they come back to life.

Yeah.

Some sort of special mechanism
can take place at that moment.

Quantum tunneling, basically.

So where do I go to get to this tunnel?

Where you're going is the other side.

If there is some method to create an IBM,

I suppose it would just be to die a ton.

Whaa?

I’ve already died a lot!

You need to try your luck dozens, even hundreds of times.

Otherwise you'll never win that trip to Hawaii.

This is the cheapest option, and you
can automatically die multiple times.

You can even sleep in it.

Most of all, it’s painless.

Phew...

Guess I’ll do it!

There’s nothing to be scared of.

Nagai, I’m amazed you’re always
able to die with such little hesitation.

You do it too.

I’m always scared.

There’s the off chance, right?

Maybe you won’t come back to life the next time.

It’s basically just a rumor,

but I’ve heard there's a Chinese ajin who's died 2,000 times.

And the number is only going up.

Talk about determination.

You have to be determined.

Otherwise you can never move forward.

There's no need to be scared.

You’re amazing.

Whatever. Hurry up and die.

Eh? You’re leaving?

What are you, a little kid? I have stuff to do.

Have a little heart, why doncha?

That’s right. There's no need to be scared.

Do what you want!

I won’t nag you again, so do what you want.

Yeah, I know that. I’m not an idiot.

Everyone around here is an idiot.

Look what you’ve done.

Hey, you!

There are plenty of other chairs-

Your friend’s in reform school.

What?

That day... the day you were
sent to the ajin research lab.

He was arrested by the police.

Why are you telling me this now?

If it seems like I'll betray you...

...do you plan to use Kaito to threaten me?

Like you used my fiancée.

That's only effective if you don’t show your hand.

You said you don’t need your friend anymore.

Until I judge my hand to be ineffective...

And don’t be eating this stuff when you’re trying to lose weight.

Can’t believe him...

Reform school...

I wronged Kai.

But, thinking about what’s to come...

...that might be the safest place.

Starting today, you’ll be living here.
