We'd like to have you regain this
thirteenth "Sunflowers" for us.
The criminal is number SX-28,
the figure known as Clayman.
Minato Amusement Park
House of Mirrors
What is this?!
Ban! The reflections!
So, would you like to see
with your own eyes?
You aren't trying to say it's
the real thing, are you?
It couldn't be.
Now, let us go
to the place where the
mighty artists sleep.
Oh? I see.
Clayman's gang and the
recovery service...
Thirty minutes have passed since they
entered the abandoned house,
and still no movement.
If possible, before we dispose of all
the paintings and the people,
I'd like to appraise his collection
to see whether or not
there are any real paintings mixed in.
I wonder if you can do it, gentlemen
from the disposal service?
If you wish.
Wow...
This is...
What do you think?
It doesn't match the sun's light, but
even so it's bright enough, isn't it?
Without this much light, my collection
cannot be enjoyed.
It's quite impressive, don't you think?
It's not as far along as the Louvre, but...
Ban, the guy who painted this one
was famous, wasn't he?
That's Renoir.
Yes, that work is what Renoir continued
to strive for into his declining years:
female beauty itself.
It's a snug little painting that
could be put up anywhere,
but he said "I want to paint the
kind of painting that
I could put up on a wall and
have it please people."
Don't you think it's overflowing with
Renoir's feelings as he said that?
Next to that is Van Gogh's friend
Gauguin, then Cezanne, Picasso
and here we have Matisse.
They're all beautiful, huh?
Hey, Mister Clayman.
What is it?
It looks like that thirteenth "Sunflowers"
and the rest of this collection
aren't simple fakes.
That's just like you.
I thought YOU would understand.
Don't get the wrong idea.
We're a recovery service.
And we were assigned the recovery
of that "Sunflowers."
I know.
Then why did you bring us here?
And just what are these paintings?
Are also you asking that as a recoverer?
Or are you asking that in
a personal capacity?
I am sorry, but I can't answer you
about the paintings.
The reason I invited you two was because
I heard about you from Miss Himiko
and I was interested.
So I thought I would have you show me
your skills on the way,
as well as your understanding of art.
And...
If it seemed the two of you could
understand my collection,
I thought I would become your client
in place of those villains,
in the eternal recovery of these
paintings, you see.
Eternal recovery?
We may not look like it, but we
are professionals, you know.
We won't do anything to betray a client,
as long as there's been no breach
of contract or anything.
Then isn't this perfect?
Huh?
Heh, trooping around in droves.
It looks like they've come to sting us just like
the bee and horsefly that they are, huh, Ban?
Much of my collection is stolen from
that corrupt art dealer Hachisu.
That man was going around buying up these
paintings cheaply and insuring them
for large sums of money, and then he
was trying to get rid of them himself
and swindle the insurance money
from the company.
Do you think that's forgivable?
The artists poured their entire lives
into the paintings here;
these are literally their final and
supreme masterpieces!
Those masterpieces,
at the hands of a man like that who
thinks of art only as a commodity.
Paintings were not painted for
a purpose like that!
They weren't born for a purpose like that!
That's why I became an art thief!
I wanted to protect the paintings
from that man!
Seems like it's worth listening
to what you have to say.
So, now that that's settled, I'll leave
the rest to you, Get Backers.
Himiko?
What? Himiko, are you going home?
Himiko! Why, you little...
You push a load of trouble
onto a guy and...
What are you talking about?
I'm a transport service.
My job is already over.
It ended the moment I transported
you two here.
See you.
Don't screw around with me!
You come back here!
Damn, Himiko!
Himiko's...
Her vibe has kinda changed, huh?
It's only gone back to the way it was.
Now then...
So, what are you saying you want
to hire us for, Mister Clayman?
Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen
of the recovery service.
Well, if it isn't Mr. Hachisu!
Coming to meet us yourself, what
a courteous thing to do.
So this means you want to dispose of
the "Sunflowers" along with us?
That's a dirty trick!
That's a total breach of contract, isn't it?
I used you to discover the
location of this place.
I had a shadowing service watching you.
That's his story, Ban.
How nice of you to go to
so much trouble for us.
You must be Clayman.
I'll say thank you.
I've profited quite a lot thanks to you.
However, it's about time to end this.
You see, it would be inconvenient
for me if the world found out
that all of the paintings
you stole from me,
including that thirteenth "Sunflowers,"
were fakes.
Is this a fake?
According to the results of the
scientific appraisal,
the paint is too new in all of them.
To think that you don't understand
the truth of these paintings...
You really don't have the right to call
yourself an art dealer, I see.
Get them!
Bring it on!
Just so you know, I won't
pull any punches!
Idiot! Stop it!
What are you doing?!
What are these guys?!
Us?
We're the invincible recovery
service, the Get Backers.
Snakebite!
Remember us well!
Now then, former client Hachisu.
It's time for after-sale service!
Stay back. Stay back!
Stay back!
Look out! Fuel!
Ban! The paintings!
What?!
Paintings? I don't care about
paintings anymore!
If they won't make money, worthless
things like this,
I don't care if they're real or fake!
Burn! Burn!
Everything, burn away!
Hurry! Start the car!
I said hurry!
Yes, Sir...
I did it. I did it!
I burned everything!
I win!
Just as you requested,
we've brought three hundred million
yen in cash. Please check it.
I'm terribly sorry to ask you for
something so inconvenient
as a portion of the insurance
money in cash.
If it seems the robberies will
continue any longer,
even in our position we'll be forced
to dissolve the insurance contract.
Our company never thought a thing
like this would happen, either.
As the person in put in charge of
Takaoka Department Store's gallery,
this robbery was a great sorrow.
Oh, from the viewpoint of art history as well,
this loss must be incalculable.
Am I right, Abukawa?
Yes, exactly as you say, Sir.
Oh, it's a shame. It's truly a shame.
Oh? Was it really that much of a treasure?
You two?!
It's us, the recovery service!
We're so sorry to have kept you
waiting, Mr. Client, Sir!
But we got the thirteenth "Sunflowers"
back, just like you asked us to!
But that can't be!
That is, the flame gun...
What?
Flame gun?
What the heck do you suppose
he's talking about, Ginji?
No idea!
Oh, and as a free bonus,
we also got back ALL the paintings
Clayman's stolen up until now!
It's a lie! It's a lie!
I saw it with my own eyes!
The Renoir and the Gauguin and
that "Sunflowers" too!
All of them! All of them!
I, with my own hands...
Are you sure you didn't have a
nightmare or something?
We left the rest of the paintings
with the parking lot attendant,
so don't forget to pick them up, okay?
Well, with that...
Thanks for the business!
What's this all about, Mr. Hachisu?
I don't know!
I... I don't know anything about it!
I don't know... I don't know...
I don't know!
I don't know... I don't know...
I don't know anything...
I don't know... I don't know...
That was only 50,000 volts,
not much of a shock at all.
But for your facial muscles to spasm
and peel off your mask, it might've
been enough, huh?
Show your true self...
Clayman.
A woman?
Although I don't remember
saying I was a man.
You're a fine piece of work.
So, where's the real Abukawa?
"If you never come back to Japan
again, I'll spare your life."
When I threatened him with that
and gave him money,
he fled the country with his
tail between his legs.
Himiko turning into a man the
second the Jeep crashed
was one of your cheap tricks
with clay too.
You used that clay to transform
that man into Himiko
and controlled him with Himiko's
puppet perfume.
Then when impact of the crash made the
mask come off, he turned back into a man.
You had me completely taken in.
The stuff in the amusement park
was the same thing, huh?
When you made Ban and I turn
against each other,
right before I passed out something that
looked like clay dust started falling.
That's how I noticed.
The Jagan was the fake.
You went to the trouble of coming
here to confirm that?
You two truly did well for me.
And I paid the 1,800,000 yen
recovery fee in advance.
Is there something you're
dissatisfied with?
No, the job is over.
But I have some things
I want to ask you.
Returning the paintings in this way
when you've gone to all the
trouble of stealing them...
Why is that an eternal recovery?
And...
These paintings... Whether or not
these paintings are real?
Speaking logically they can't be real.
Even that Hachisu said the paint
was too new or something.
But these damn paintings
have enough power to
drive logic like that out the window.
I told you, didn't I? I can't answer
you about the paintings.
I'm asking this in a personal capacity.
Before we talk, would you
help me with one thing?
What?
I want to get them to a sunny place.
Ban! The next one, hurry!
I know, I know!
This is the last of them!
Now then, let's have it.
What the hell is this painting?
Just as you see, it's the "Thirteenth
Sunflowers," painted by Van Gogh.
Now look here...
They say that Van Gogh saw there were
no shadows in ukiyoe prints
and thought Japan must be a country so
bright that things couldn't cast shadows.
So in search of the greatest
possible brightness,
he settled in Arles in the
south of France.
Van Gogh, who believed in Christianity,
invited twelve artists he respected
there, including Gauguin.
He wanted to create a village
of artists, modeled with
Gauguin as Christ, and himself and
the others as the twelve Apostles.
But the only one who came was Gauguin.
The "Sunflowers" series were paintings
Van Gogh did with the intention
of hanging them in the rooms of the
artists who were to become Apostles.
Believing that someday they would come,
he kept painting the flowers of
the sun, the "Sunflowers."
Eventually Van Gogh parted ways
even with Gauguin,
and some years later committed suicide,
leaving the twelve "Sunflowers" behind.
Twelve? Then it's really...
This is a work Van Gogh
did after his death.
After his death, leaving it as
flowers for his own grave.
What do you mean, after his death?!
He's not a ghost?!
Don't screw around with us!
Who would believe a story like that?!
Whether or not you believe it,
this is the truth.
All of the masterpieces here are works
painted by the masters after their deaths.
They painted into them all their thoughts
about this world and all their regrets.
Now that Hachisu's evil intent
has been revealed,
all of these paintings will certainly
be judged as fakes.
These paintings will lose
their place to go.
As the curator of its affiliated museum,
I intend to display them in
this department store.
In places where children and
adults can freely go,
like the lounges and cafes and
stairwells, you see?
I haven't truly gotten the
masterpieces back
by lining them up in my secret gallery.
When they are seen by many people,
masterpieces first begin to
gain in radiance.
And over the passage of
hundreds of years,
the boorish scientific appraisal
results will be forgotten,
and the day will come when
these paintings
are recognized as true masterpieces.
I'm sure of it.
The eternal recovery I desire,
that's what it means.
Although probably no one will believe
such an outrageous story.
Hey, Miss Clayman.
I figure it might be at least
worth asking you this.
Heya!
Yo!
Oh, welcome home!
Hey there. How's it going?
What? Kazu? What are you doing here?
Why, you! What are you here for?!
Never mind that, did you safely
complete Clayman's assignment?
What? How do you know about...
Have you been spying on us with threads?!
What did you say?!
Did you figure out right away that
Abukawa was Clayman's disguise?
Oh, and that Clayman was really a girl?
We know all of it!
Sheesh, we can't take our eyes
off you for a second,
you thread-spinning bastard!
Well, then, how about the fact that
Clayman's mother was a medium?
Hey, what did you just say?
Clayman's mother was a renowned
medium, I said.
What?
Are you sure?
I caught this information through
my intelligence network.
There's no mistake.
But a medium is someone who calls
ghosts and stuff, isn't it?!
Then those paintings really WERE
done by a ghost?!
No.
The person who painted those was
probably Clayman's mother herself.
Or to be more accurate,
perhaps I should say
the spirits of the artists borrowed her
mother's body and painted them.
That "Sunflowers" must have also
been Clayman's mother,
housing the spirit of Van Gogh.
Thinking about it that way,
I can understand Clayman's obsession
with those paintings.
In other words, strictly speaking
those paintings are fakes,
but the souls of the masters which
were poured into them...
I don't need to hear any more.
That kind of thing doesn't matter.
True art needs no explanation!
Although I did steal that from Clayman.
Oh, so you've been completely
infected with her disease.
I'm telling you, Master, if you look
at this you'll understand too.
Heh, that's right, that's right!
Ta-da!
A masterpiece!
You guys... Is that?
We bought it with the recovery fee
we got from Clayman!
What?!
Take a look, Natsumi!
That's 1,800,000 yen. 1,800,000 yen!
Wow! It's great!
Hey, Master, let's display this in the cafe!
You guys don't even pay your tab,
and then buy a thing like that...
Why, thank you.

Yeah, I can't run away.

there, including Gauguin.
He wanted to create a village
of artists, modeled with
Gauguin as Christ, and himself and
the others as the twelve Apostles.
But the only one who came was Gauguin.
The "Sunflowers" series were paintings
Van Gogh did with the intention
of hanging them in the rooms of the
artists who were to become Apostles.
Believing that someday they would come,
he kept painting the flowers of
the sun, the "Sunflowers."
Eventually Van Gogh parted ways
even with Gauguin,
and some years later committed suicide,
leaving the twelve "Sunflowers" behind.
Twelve? Then it's really...
This is a work Van Gogh
did after his death.
After his death, leaving it as
flowers for his own grave.
What do you mean, after his death?!
He's not a ghost?!
Don't screw around with us!
Who would believe a story like that?!
Whether or not you believe it,
this is the truth.
All of the masterpieces here are works
painted by the masters after their deaths.
They painted into them all their thoughts
about this world and all their regrets.
Now that Hachisu's evil intent
has been revealed,
all of these paintings will certainly
be judged as fakes.
These paintings will lose
their place to go.
As the curator of its affiliated museum,
I intend to display them in
this department store.
In places where children and
adults can freely go,
like the lounges and cafes and
stairwells, you see?
I haven't truly gotten the
masterpieces back
by lining them up in my secret gallery.
When they are seen by many people,
masterpieces first begin to
gain in radiance.
And over the passage of
hundreds of years,
the boorish scientific appraisal
results will be forgotten,
and the day will come when
these paintings
are recognized as true masterpieces.
I'm sure of it.
The eternal recovery I desire,
that's what it means.
Although probably no one will believe
such an outrageous story.
Hey, Miss Clayman.
I figure it might be at least
worth asking you this.
Heya!
Yo!
Oh, welcome home!
Hey there. How's it going?
What? Kazu? What are you doing here?
Why, you! What are you here for?!
Never mind that, did you safely
complete Clayman's assignment?
What? How do you know about...
Have you been spying on us with threads?!
What did you say?!
Did you figure out right away that
Abukawa was Clayman's disguise?
Oh, and that Clayman was really a girl?
We know all of it!
Sheesh, we can't take our eyes
off you for a second,
you thread-spinning bastard!
Well, then, how about the fact that
Clayman's mother was a medium?
Hey, what did you just say?
Clayman's mother was a renowned
medium, I said.
What?
Are you sure?
I caught this information through
my intelligence network.
There's no mistake.
But a medium is someone who calls
ghosts and stuff, isn't it?!
Then those paintings really WERE
done by a ghost?!
No.
The person who painted those was
probably Clayman's mother herself.
Or to be more accurate,
perhaps I should say
the spirits of the artists borrowed her
mother's body and painted them.
That "Sunflowers" must have also
been Clayman's mother,
housing the spirit of Van Gogh.
Thinking about it that way,
I can understand Clayman's obsession
with those paintings.
In other words, strictly speaking
those paintings are fakes,
but the souls of the masters which
were poured into them...
I don't need to hear any more.
That kind of thing doesn't matter.
True art needs no explanation!
Although I did steal that from Clayman.
Oh, so you've been completely
infected with her disease.
I'm telling you, Master, if you look
at this you'll understand too.
Heh, that's right, that's right!
Ta-da!
A masterpiece!
You guys... Is that?
We bought it with the recovery fee
we got from Clayman!
What?!
Take a look, Natsumi!
That's 1,800,000 yen. 1,800,000 yen!
Wow! It's great!
Hey, Master, let's display this in the cafe!
You guys don't even pay your tab,
and then buy a thing like that...
Why, thank you.

Was it really a good idea to
take on this assignment?
Yeah, I can't run away.
Because that's... The Limitless Fortress
is the city I grew up in.
Don't push yourself too hard.
It's okay, because now
everyone's with me.
