Get Backers (2002–2003): Season 1, Episode 30 - Mystery Assassins: The Miroku Siblings - full transcript
At the end of the pain you bear
A possibility you'd lost track of is waiting
You'll soon forget even your tears
And be drowned in a new pleasure
The story of history, striving
towards its destruction
If I'm with you, it's not that scary
Even now, the hopeless world
Seems like it'll end, but it isn't ending
I'm sure the scene you've half given up on
Will look rose-colored if we're together too
Yes.
What I want you two to recover, are
what some say don't exist,
the lost arms of Venus de Milo.
Right now, the arms of Venus are headed
toward an auction hall on a small island.
If they're joined with the replica of
the body waiting in that hall,
the mystic beauty of Venus will be lost.
Before that happens, I want you to
get back that eternal beauty.
Natsuhiko Miroku...
Ban!
Ban! Ban!
Who?!
Who did this to Ban?!
It's all right.
Midou is not the kind of person anything will
happen to because of a little thing like that.
I know that! But there's always
the off chance, isn't there?!
If he fell into the ocean with
an injury like that...
Even stuff that would normally be fine might...
There's no need for worry.
He's a person who's survived
even my attack, you know.
I forgot about this guy.
And I must have you fight me.
I'm here on a job too, you see.
My heart's begun to pound a little.
It's been a while since I've had an
opponent I could enjoy, you see.
Well, I'm in a little bit of a hurry, so...
Please ask someone else!
You're as interesting as ever, I see.
You're a truly interesting person.
The second after I think
I can easily defeat you,
you display a power I hadn't imagined.
I'm relieved.
If this is the way things are, you shouldn't be so
easily killed by that protection service, either.
Protection service?
I don't want you to be defeated
by someone other than me.
Therefore I'll give you one warning.
Don't think that your enemy is one person.
All right?
What was that?
What happened?
My, he really is a fun person.
I'm saved.
When I'm with that guy, it takes
years off of my life.
Here we go...
But what does that mean,
"Don't think your enemy is one person?"
Wait, now's not the time to be
thinking about that!
Ban!
Ban! Ban!
Ban! Ban!
Ban...
He... he's really not here.
I'm all alone?
And where am I?
Take this if you'd like.
It's my brother's share, but he's
disappeared off to somewhere.
It'd be a waste if it melted.
Would you like this one too?
Ta-da!
Venus de Milo!
That's the Statue of Liberty.
Oh, was that the way it was?
You're interesting.
That was good. Thanks, uh...
My name is Miroku,
Yukihiko Miroku.
I'm Ginji Amano. Nice to meet you!
Nice to meet you too.
Are you all by yourself, Ginji?
Actually, I'm lost.
I got separated from the person I'm with.
I see.
Then do you want to explore
the ship with me?
Soon...
Soon I'll get you to a sunny place.
And then you two will become
part of the Venus de Milo.
After more than 2,000 years you'll
be a part of that damn goddess!
Doctor Jackal, where have you been?
I hired you to transport this safely.
Miroku's left his post too.
My apologies, some meddlers have already
barged their way in, you see.
They're a recovery service.
Miroku intercepted one of them,
but the other one got in.
You couldn't stop him?
You and Miroku together?
How sloppy.
As enemies the Get Backers
are nothing to sneeze at.
I don't want to hear any excuses.
You seem quite irritated, Miss Hera.
When those arms are joined with Venus,
your name will go down in art history as the
one who completed the Venus de Milo.
Aren't you pleased?
Get out. Right now!
Well, well, Mr. Shakuryuu and Mr. Hyouko.
Do you have some business here?
Miss Hera is the Boss's guest.
We've been ordered to guard her.
Guard? Are you sure you don't
mean, "keep watch on?"
Watch your mouth, Jackal.
You say some quite interesting things.
If I don't watch it, then what happens?
Miss Hera is my client.
Miroku is here as well.
There's no need for you to stand guard.
More importantly, wouldn't it be better
for you to be near your boss?
What do you mean?
I mean it's not necessarily the case that
the recovery service's only objective
is the arms of the goddess.
There's no guarantee that they're not
after your true objective.
Damn, I screwed up.
Akabane, and dragons and tigers,
and to top it all off, Miroku?!
I never thought he'd be here.
That guy's dangerous, too dangerous!
Wait, Ginji!
Don't get involved with him
until I get there!
What is it, Ginji?
Nothing.
Hey, this is good too.
I'm glad you like it.
Yukihiko, you're a good person!
You even bought me food!
It's to commemorate us becoming friends.
Yeah, we're friends now, aren't we?!
All right, we caught up!
Man, your friends are really handy, Shido.
I wanted to try ridin' a dolphin, just once.
Just hurry up and get up there!
It hurts me to leave her, but...
Okay, here I go!
Okay, here ya are, Shido!
Let's go.
Yeah, yeah, let's get this recovery goin'.
Kuroudo Akabane
Shido Fuyuki
By the way, are you going
to be in the auction?
Auction?
No, I came here on a job.
So you're in the same situation as me.
Ban and I are teamed up doing
a recovery service.
It's called Get Backers.
That's the person you were
saying was with you?
What's he like?
Well...
A long time ago we were enemies,
but now he's my most precious ally.
Whenever I'm in a pinch, he always
pops up out of nowhere
and he helps me out, even if he's
angry at me while he's doing it.
So I'm not worried.
Because since it's Ban,
I believe that he'll catch up and
he'll come for me this time too.
That's different than how
Natsuhiko described him.
I hope he comes.
It's truly well-done, Mr. Ryuu.
It's a Venus to rival the original.
Yes, it is an important replica made to verify
the discovery of the century after all.
When the arms are fixed onto this goddess,
I'm sure that charm will increase
her value any number of times.
And when that has been accomplished, I'd by all
means like to win the bidding at the auction.
I'll participate too, of course.
It's a purchase that would be worth
any amount paid for it after all.
To the success of the auction then.
What?
Is something the matter, Mr. Ryuu?
It seems a rat has snuck its way in.
I'll have it dealt with right away.
Is everything all right?
There's no need for worry.
Wow, this is a really big boat.
I got no idea where the target is.
I see.
Emishi, I know where it is!
Really?!
It doesn't look like it'll be
that easy though.
Well now, what a warm welcome.
What do ya think we should do?
We have to fight them, obviously!
Well then, for the first time in a while
I'll laugh my fill at sprayin' blood!
Ravenous Wolf Semblance!
Isn't it a little noisy over there?
Don't go.
You'll get killed.
What?
Escape in a lifeboat right away!
Got it?
Hey, wait!
Yukihiko! What do you mean by that?
What are you doing all of a sudden?!
You're Ginji Amano, aren't you?
I'm Natsuhiko Miroku.
Wait a second!
Miroku?
Does that mean you're
Yukihiko's big brother?
Are you mad because I ate up your
ice cream, by any chance?
That Yukihiko, he had all kinds
of chances to defeat you.
I don't know what he was hesitating for.
What?
You can find a watery grave too,
like Ban Midou.
You did that to Ban?!
Why? Why would Yukihiko's
big brother do that?!
We're a protection service.
Now, reunite with your partner in Hell.
Ban is alive!
No way would he be done in that easily!
You just don't give up!
Even if he were alive, he wouldn't
be able to come all the way here.
He'll come! Ban always comes for me,
no matter what! So I know!
Well, well, so this is the
Lightning Emperor's power?
But...
You're soft!
This ends it.
What did you say?!
Don't interfere.
He's...
Why? Yuki...
I'm sorry, Ginji.
Loulan Dance Whip!
All right! Our combination
fightin' is invincible!
Let's go! We'll find what we're
after right away, and...
These guys are good.
Yeah, they got some serious bloodlust goin'.
This is bad, Shido!
That's a secret technique that's
been passed down in China!
What?
That transparent sword, I remember it's called
the Thin-Ice Sword of the Gishi people,
and that fist of fire is...
Well, this is bad!
Its name has slipped my mind!
Anyway, they're definitely
dangerous guys, right?
You sneaky snooping rats...
We'll finish you off with our technique!
This ain't good, is it?
How are things over there?
Nothing out of the ordinary!
Where are you, Ginji?
Damn!
This is bad, as long as I'm like this.
Damn, this really isn't my lucky day, is it?
Of all the people in the world...
You look extremely tired.
Yeah, thanks a lot!
This is seriously bad.
I don't have enough strength to
fight this guy right now.
I'll have to watch for an opening and
take a gamble on the Jagan.
Following us this far with that injury,
I suppose I should say that's just
what I can expect from you.
Is he gonna attack or what?
That's right, there's something
I'd like to ask you.
I'd be happy if you answered this for me.
What is it?
Have you ever fought with
the Lightning Emperor?
Yeah, I have.
With the Lightning Emperor when
he's at a hundred power?
Yeah.
Did you win?
As you can see, I'm alive.
That's your answer, isn't it?
I think I'll refrain from fighting you here.
Are you saying you've become
afraid of my Jagan?
Let's refrain from it this time.
Even if I defeated you as you are now,
there'd be no enjoyment in it.
I'll let you go.
As for what I'd like from you in exchange,
I suppose you could say...
Could I have you promise me this?
When we arrive at Gunkanjima, the
meeting place for this auction,
please fight with me then.
With your true power,
the power that fought the
Lightning Emperor.
Please pull yourself together before then.
Take care not to be defeated by Miroku.
You'll let me go?
You'll let me go, you say?
Me, Ban Midou?!
Bring it on anytime!
You jerk!
Doctor Jackal...
This is bad, it doesn't look like
we can win easily.
What do ya wanna do, Shido?
There's no need for us to overdo it here.
That's Gunkanjima!
Prepare yourselves!
So we're finally here?
The clouds are full of puddles
The sky looks like it's about to cry
In the midst of the drowning day-to-day
The backs of my eyelids are cold
I got through the long night alone
I erased morning's sounds with a sigh
It can't be taken back
The time that's slipped by can't be rewound
Mr. Déjà Vu, you aren't here
The days became illusions
I noticed, you aren't here
The hands on the clock don't move
Speak to me
Don't leave me alone without saying goodbye
Even if there's no such thing as eternity
I want to keep believing in the
red threads that connect us
I can't move!
Don't get caught!
Well, maybe if your opponent's
Miroku it can't be helped.
But good things have happened too!
The person who's got the arms of
the goddess is someone I know.
Maybe she'll hand it over!
As if it would go that easily.
But what is that woman thinking?
It looks like there's some
complicated circumstances.
Next time: "Hera and Kait"
Next Get Backers:
Hera and Kait
Next time: "Hera and Kait"
Next Get Backers:
Hera and Kait
Just watch, we'll get back your happiness!
