Charger Girl Ju-den Chan (2009): Season 1, Episode 2 - Taimingu! - full transcript
What's wrong, Hakone-Chan?
Lately, lots of people have been illegally
downloading TV shows over the internet.
Without the right holders' permission...
...distribution, via the
internet or bootlegs, is illegal!
Please remember that...
Charger girls get up bright and early!
Even if they are citizens of a highly
technologically advanced parallel world...
They are still industrious members
of society, busy at work every day.
Get up, please!
Who turned off my alarm clock?!
Today, the charger girls go forth again!
Miracles exist next to
reality, it definitely exists.
Fight! One Shot! Charger Girl!
A small sigh, because of worries.
Now, staring at your back.
It's wrong, that's why I won't
say those kind of words.
People definitely aren't alone.
Even if I touch that
painful memory gently.
Even if I forget that precious time.
That's why, to reach even a little higher.
Look, the shine reflected
in the child's eyes.
Let the whole world be filled with energy.
I can lend you my power
only for this moment.
Bye!
Take care!
OK!
And then he got really mad.
He looked like a scary old lady.
Scary old lady brother!
Hakone-Chan's much happier.
What's up, lono-Chan?
You're smiling.
Yeah?
Am I?
Were you thinking about a certain someone?
Were you thinking about them and smiling?
OK! I'll do my best, too!
Timing!
It's digging into me!
It's so tight!
Millie-Chan!
B-Bitch-kun...
Stop screwing around, you lazy insect!
Filthy pond-leech whore!
Stop enjoying it.
You call yourself a
magical soldier of love?
I can't go on...
It feels so good!
Time for work.
Oh, no.
Found you!
Um, where's a power source...
Move! You're in the way!
Charge.
Arresta!
What are you doing here?
This isn't your area!
You don't know?
I don't!
A certain someone hasn't even
come close to making their quota...
So the chief sent me.
She told me to keep the
sections at least partially balanced.
But even so, I think coming
in and just charging someone...
You know what this is, right?
A report on a certain
someone's activities this month.
Six failed charges.
Stemming from them,
two instances of property damage.
You're already on your
third stern warning this month.
Anything to say?
Whatever! I came to help, so at least
go some place where you won't bother me!!
Who does she think she is...
Acting like my boss 'cause
I had some trouble this month?!
Stupid!
Jerk!
Four-eyed ice queen!
I should get to work.
Maybe I should get this pair of tickets.
But maybe it'd be easier to invite
him if I brought Hakone-Chan along.
Warning Level C.
Here I go!
Charge.
I can keep going and going!
I haven't lost yet.
OK, this time..
Charge.
I'm on top of the world!
Charge.
Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge.
Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge.
Charge. Charge. Charge. Charge.
Go me!
What are you doing?
You don't punch girls in the face!
Beats being hit with a bat, right?
What does that mean?
Just don't get in the way of my job.
In the way?
That's my line!
You keep stealing all
the charge targets I find!
Stealing?
I don't know about that.
You're just too slow,
the early bird gets the charge.
Am I wrong?
W-Well...
That's what the chief always says, right?
Jeez... My head hurts
just thinking about this.
I can't believe I'm working
with such a stupid girl.
Do you know what the rest
of the company calls you?
Miss Salary Cut.
The Queen of Take it out of her Salary.
The Demon of Written Apologies.
The others give me a hard enough time
simply for being in your department.
You're not cut out for this line of work.
That target...
I charged him a year ago.
Again?
There are a lot of repeaters these days.
Oh, well.
Ah, too bad. Work's over.
You're leaving?
Of course I am.
I don't need to work overtime,
and I've got things to do.
See you around.
Oh, Bitch-kun!
What the hell was that today?
You're a failure as a Magical Girl!
I'm sorry!
Stealth...
Sento-kun.
When you're done, clean out the back, OK?
Yes, Chief.
I-ls something wrong?
Going to clean!
That was awful...
You were the one who suddenly
came out of the damned wall.
I didn't Know you
worked at a place like this!
So, what are you doing here?
Are you going to charge one
of the customers or something?
No, that's not it.
It's not?
Yeah...
Did something happen?
Well, you seem more down than usual,
so I was wondering if you screwed up.
Like if you got bitched out by a co-worker
'cause you slowed them down.
I'm right?
Um, actually...
I was thinking maybe
I'm really not cut out for this job.
Heck if I know.
But you know...
This is just what I think. I'm not
really going to say anything deep here.
So don't expect too much.
I know that.
Like, your job...
My Image of Charging!
You might, for instance,
have a victim and an abuser.
Even if you charged the
victim and she got better...
Feelin' fine!
The abuser doesn't notice at all.
Bring me beer!
And since the fundamental
problem hasn't been resolved...
...it's possible that the same thing
will happen over and over again.
That's what causes those repeaters
you were talking about, right?
So basically, you're just kicking
the issue down the road a bit.
It's like changing the batteries
of a toy that won't move.
Ok, done.
Well, regardless, it's good for us,
and to you guys, it's a job.
Are you trying to pick a
fight with me, Sento-kun?
It's just what I think.
What's your problem?
That's not it!
That's not what we do at all!
You don't know anything!
H-Hey, stop it! I'm trying my hardest.
I may not look it, but I really am!
Why, you...
I'm just giving him the ticket.
It's nothing special.
Nothing special at all.
Come on!
Sen-nil!
Screw you!
I'm not taking that shit from
a girl who floats through walls!
Shut up!
I'll kill you! I'll kill you!
I'll seriously beat the
living shit out of you!
Never mind!
You stupid, female wage-slave!
Just a little...
That's great!
I didn't know he was such a jerk.
Who does he think saved Hakone-Chan?
Who?
I didn't look into what was bothering
Hakone-Chan until after he got mad.
And then I worked with him.
But if I'd been alone...
Could I have saved her?
All right!
Shouei Prep School
Did you know that Mr. Tanser,
the famous physicist...
Here, the key is what form the verb
stopped, or Japanese yameta, takes.
There he is...
This did you know ts in
past tense, of course...
I'm back.
I'm sorry it's nothing fancy, Akihiro...
But I think cutlet was
the right choice here...
Do your best on your admissions test...
Rush and you'll make
mistakes you shouldn't...
Come on. If I can do it,
there's no reason you can't...
I never did get a B...
If I fail this time, I'll have spent
four years trying to get into college...
I wish they'd told me
to get a job before...
If they had, I never
would've suffered this much...
They don't even know what I want...
So, this is what's going on...
If I'd just charged him there...
...re might have just gotten into a
big fight with the people supporting him.
He was right. It's not like changing
the batteries in a toy.
Now then, what should
I do in this situation?
Do your best.
If he's looking at the problem sheet,
he should be thinking about his future.
If I'm going to charge
him, that's the time.
Just keep going a little more, and I'll...
Hey, wait. Where are you going?
Wait!
He's just... He's giving up?
I'm not gonna pass anyway.
It's only a waste of time.
I never thought this would happen.
And he's smoking, even
though he's a student-
If he's failed the yearly exams
three times, he's 21. It's fine.
Don't scare me.
That wasn't my intent. But seeing
you freak out does make me happy.
What do you want?
What do I want?
The university entrance
exams are today and tomorrow.
Lots of students without
much energy take the exam.
It was amazing. The warning buzzer
was going off everywhere.
Targets as far as the eye could see!
I think I must easily have cleared 100.
So, he's the last one.
No!
If you charge him now, the same
thing will just repeat all over again.
He needs better timing for it!
What do you mean, timing?
What if we leave him here,
and it ends up being too late?
Well...
I'm leaving.
No way!
I won't let you!
I don't really care anymore.
The warning level moved from C to BI!
Enough.
I'm charging him now.
I said to wait!
Let me go!
No!
Damn it.
What are you doing?
To us, he may just be
a target for charging.
But just like us, he suffers and worries.
People still cheer him on.
He has a heart. He's human!
I know.
The manga cafe's open, ain't it?
No!
You have a family that's cheering you on!
Test Passing Good Luck Charm
Charge!
Wh-What? Where am I?
Only five minutes till the test starts!
Oh, no.
I'm going to do it.
This year I'm going to pass!
I did it! I did it! I
did it! I did it! I did it!
The hell you did.
My face is not a launchpad!
But I was able to jump really far.
Thanks.
And how about the results?
Well?
Huh?
Well?
You seem to have the wrong idea,
so I'll set you straight.
Wrong idea?
We get paid for charging people.
I know that.
It's true that we may help people...
...but if that were all that's needed...
...they wouldn't worry about
quotas and things like that.
You managed to save only
one person after two full days.
That's reality.
And had he not dropped
his good luck charm by chance...
Would you have been able to save him?
You really aren't cut out for this job.
Arresta may be right.
But I want to believe that his good luck
charm didn't fall from his pocket by chance.
That it was his family saying...
The next day, after completing two
days of grueling entrance examinations.
Akihiro-kun was said to have a face
filled with self-confidence and happiness.
OK, I'll do my best today!
So what?
What I said was right.
It was!
Damn it, Plug. How many times
must I tell you not to pop out of nowhere?
But hitting her felt
different this time...
Whatever.
I'm really tough, you know.
I'm fine even if I'm alone.
I can go anywhere.
I don't need a boyfriend.
I'm going for a strong mood.
It's what I decided
before meeting with you.
That is often a...
...bad habit.
It's not a conversation?
What should I do? Turn it over?
Because I am...
...always special.
You are special too, I just know it.
I don't want it if it's not like that.
I will always be by your side.
When you fall...
...you want to...
...hold your tears, right?
But why am I the one...
...who Is always protected?
Whenever it looks like
I'm gonna stumble...
...and fall from my feelings...
...you always gently support me.
That coincidental bond will be dear to me.
Always.
My eternal sweet heart.
Being a charger girl is hard work.
But it's also a wonderful job giving
hope and dreams to people who are down!
So how much take-home pay do you get?
Any extra for overtime?
What about benefits?
Um... I'll let Arresta
answer difficult questions like that.
What's wrong Arresta?
What is this?
Next time on Charger Girl: Lock On!
This indescribable shock that pierces
my brain... What's happening to my body?
Who knows?
