Baki (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 1 - Synchronicity - full transcript
A NETFLIX ORIGINAL ANIME
The first ones who noticed
the cause...
What's going on?
...were the delinquent students.
Why am I shaking?
May I go to the infirmary?
-Me, too.
-Yeah, me, too.
I can't stop shaking.
What? You, too?
Why?
-Ever since I walked into this classroom.
-And it's not like I'm cold either.
All those who can't stop shaking
raise your hands.
Everyone?
No.
He seems fine.
He's sleeping, though.
Hanma?
The ability to survive as a delinquent
is similar to living in the wild.
It's not like we are delinquents
just to be cool, you know?
Yet you say you fell down the stairs?
Those injuries don't look like
they came from a fall, do they?
Ryo, are you scared or something?
What? Scared?
Well, you've been shaking for a while.
Look who's talking.
That's enough.
We're done with this guy.
They were not fit to be delinquents.
Rather...
it wasn't in their DNA.
Never... never mind.
If we're done here, I'll be going.
He was like a deadly explosive
never encountered before.
Hey!
You...
No, who...
Who the hell are you?
I've got nothing interesting to say.
Getting involved
wouldn't be worth your time.
Delinquents are able to instantly assess
an opponent's fighting abilities.
Just stick to your delinquent ways.
As long as you don't interfere,
I won't come after you.
Sometimes, that can be more important
than the ability to fight.
Jeez, that was scary!
-Hey, hey!
-It's a limo!
Is it the CIA?
MITSUNARI TOKUGAWA
This is the 11th-generation head
of the Tokugawa family...
and ruler of the underground fight arena,
the sacred ground of combat.
A man with deep respect and love
for the martial arts and its fighters.
So, what did you do?
Nothing really.
Do you even know
what kind of man he is?
Well, how can I put it...?
PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
Well, am the principal,
but this is such a surprise.
To think that someone like Mr. Tokugawa
would come to our school...
Hey, champion!
I'm not a champion.
What do you want, old man?
Don't be angry.
Principal, will you leave us
alone for a moment?
Of course, sir!
How's the injury?
They said the cast can come off
in a few days.
But you aren't here to ask me that.
are you?
Do you know what this is, Baki?
I guess it's not red bean jam, is it?
Nitroglycerin. In other words, explosives.
I can't eat that, can I?
It is crystallized glycerin,
but 100 years ago, this was a liquid
that would not crystallize
with either heat or cold.
In the beginning of the 20th century,
a large amount of glycerin was
being transported from Vienna to London.
At that moment, the most intense
typhoon on record hit Biscay Bay.
Mind you, this shipment of glycerin
couldn't withstand a mere tremor.
Miraculously,
the ship reached its destination safely.
The crew rushed to open the barrels
to check the cargo.
What they discovered
was something they'd never seen before:
completely crystallized glycerin.
But this wasn't the only occurrence.
From that day on, it's said that glycerin
all around the world began to crystallize.
Synchronicity.
Seemingly unrelated materials
and living organisms
can undergo simultaneous changes
on a global scale.
That's what these phenomenons are called.
In the next few days,
men with great power
will arrive here in Japan...
I mean, in Tokyo.
ARGATHOS PRISON
TACOMA, WA - UNITED STATES
Be careful!
Don't get too close.
Maintain a one meter distance
at all times.
Keep your weapons unlocked!
He's a deadly beast
that can kill you in a second.
-This was the one job I didn't want.
-Don't try to talk to him!
Halt!
Officer Henry and five other guards
are here to report that the transport
of prisoner #777 is complete!
Good work.
Mr. Dorian,
any last words?
I want to taste defeat.
What happened next
should've never happened.
-Get the doctor.
-Yes, sir!
State Law, Article 29, Section 3.
After an execution by hanging,
the prisoner must remain
on the gallows for ten minutes.
Confirmation of death by a physician
marks the end of the execution.
It's always the same.
You always...
make it too easy for me.
TOKYO
GENTLEMEN,
I SHALL SEE YOU IN TOKYO
Amazing!
Baki, this is just the beginning
of the problem.
KARIOS PRISON
OUTSKIRTS OF GLASGOW, SCOTLAND
What? You want to taste defeat?
Are those your last words?
Then let me ask you, Doyle.
Are you saying this end
is a victory for you?
From what I see, your final moments
certainly seem to be the image of defeat.
In any case, before you die,
if only for a moment,
your wish will come true.
whether you like it or not.
What's the matter?
The alarm went off,you know?
Draw your gun.
I'll let you use
that modern weapon on your hip.
With the advantage of a gun, they say
humans and beasts are on equal terms.
But the difference between
our capabilities are insurmountable.
That's why I didn't even take off
this blindfold.
If you had waited ten more seconds
to turn off the switch...
my wish would've come true.
MILLBENFOSS AIR FORCE BASE
When I received the last letter from you,
I couldn't believe it.
Yet, here you are in person.
And on time, too.
Shall we go then,
to the east?
You're saying he climbed out?
A man who weighs over 100 kg?
So, he climbed a wall
that is 100 meters high?
Evans prison was originally an
intercontinental ballistic missile base.
EVANS PRISON
RUSSIA
This silo has gone through it's share
of harsh weather and launch accidents.
The walls may not be
perfectly smooth anymore.
There are small scratches and rust.
Are you saying he used that to climb out?
The wall is 100 meters high!
Sikorsky's physical abilities
are beyond extraordinary.
If he hadn't turned to crime,
he could have won countless
gold medals for Mother Russia.
With Sikorsky, maybe we could've--
Begin the search immediately!
He will be executed!
Director, up ahead is...
Yes.
If Sikorsky made a stop there...
Exactly.
Garland is in danger!
Director! Take a look at this!
Garland... Russia's hero!
The great Russian hero is...
It's exactly as I feared.
This isn't a wrestling match.
There's no way he could've
beaten Sikorsky in a real battle.
Director!
HEADING EAST
I WANT TO TASTE DEFEAT
Oh, no! Even Garland?
There are two more.
A fountain pen, a lighter,
and a wristwatch.
I feel like I've lost a gambling match.
Am I good to go?
I'm sorry, but your tie pin
and cuff links, too.
I know he's an atrocious criminal,
but he's in a special,
bullet-proof acrylic enclosure.
And have you forgotten?
I am a black belt in karate.
This is the counselor
who came to see Spec two years ago.
During the interview, Spec started
coughing blood, the counselor got closer.
Of course,
with the acrylic barrier between them.
By the time we yelled to warn him,
Spec was already done with him.
The blood was just ketchup
from the rolled cabbage served at lunch.
He grabbed the counselor
through the meal tray opening
and punched him.
This was the result.
He forced open the lock
by using bridges
used for dental work.
You said "cuff links," right?
Just in case, I'll take off my belt, too.
Of course, that goes without saying.
I'm sure you understand,
but do not get close to the acrylic.
Just stick to the questions
you have for him.
Naturally, if Spec asks any questions
or challenges you, ignore him.
He's back there, on the left.
Don't step away from the wall
during the interview.
By the way, forget you're a black belt
in karate.
The previous counselor
was a national wrestling champion.
Professor, is something wrong?
He's not here.
What?
Spec!
Spec!
Hey, guards,
thank you for your hospitality!
-I'll be heading to Tokyo now.
-This can't be!
We are...
Do you understand, guards?
I want to taste defeat!
We are...
LEVEL 5 UNDERWATER PRISON
UNITED STATES
We are 200 meters underwater!
Spec's got off the ship!
He broke the lock and escaped!
We found a piece of metal in the key hole!
It's from the professor's tooth.
It's impossible to swim to the surface
from here!
Swimming at full speed,
it'd still take five minutes!
Let him go.
He'll be dead in 30 seconds!
In any case,
notify the coast guard immediately!
How unfortunate, gentlemen.
There are many things
you still don't know about me.
For example...
I can hold my breath for five minutes.
Almost a dozen men died instantly.
He's a convict, he won't be able
to avoid the death penalty.
Still, to be able to kill
more than ten convicts?
Do you think he used martial arts?
No. He apparently used gas.
Gas?
I hear he used poisonous gas or something
of the sorts that he had hidden.
How?
Come on, a short, middle-aged man?
He's only about 160cm tall!
Will this glass barrier be enough?
We got it from the Ministry of Defense.
It can withstand a rocket missile.
SOMEWHERE IN JAPAN
Ryuukou Yanagi, the poisoner.
Hey, there.
Don't move!
I have a question for you.
What is the most poisonous gas on earth?
I said don't move!
Stop!
Why are you pointing your gun
at this bullet-proof glass?
Although for me, it's no different
than a regular glass window.
For example, this spot here.
Even if this glass
can withstand a rocket missile,
I can create a super tiny vacuum
right here...
Don't touch the glass!
... and mysteriously turn it...
Don't!
...into a normal glass window.
See?
You can shoot me now.
Don't forget to release the safety pin.
Sir!
The most poisonous gas is...
this one.
Red alert! Red alert!

All personnel, move out!
Synchronicity.
Five unrelated criminals
on death row
left the same message behind
and are now headed to Tokyo
Baki...
