WEBVTT

00:00.690 --> 00:07.540
Okay. Time to kill you and 
take that Kaiju power.

00:07.860 --> 00:10.260
<i>I need to beat it here!</i>

00:14.050 --> 00:16.640
<i>No! He failed again!</i>

00:16.640 --> 00:18.480
<i>I can't transform.</i>

00:21.330 --> 00:21.960
<i>Crap...</i>

00:21.960 --> 00:26.870
Farewell, Kaiju No. 8—

00:33.780 --> 00:35.440
K-Kikoru!

02:14.630 --> 02:20.550
<b>Episode 15   The Strongest Division</b>

02:17.610 --> 02:18.670
Can you transform?

02:19.360 --> 02:23.650
No. I keep trying, but it doesn't work.

02:23.650 --> 02:24.590
I see.

02:26.610 --> 02:29.530
<i>Is No. 9 doing something to jam it...?</i>

02:30.350 --> 02:31.100
Here it comes!

02:37.260 --> 02:38.700
Kafka Hibino!

02:38.700 --> 02:41.320
I'll hit it hard and render it immobile.

02:41.710 --> 02:44.430
If it's doing something to 
jam your transformation,

02:44.430 --> 02:46.930
it'll be ineffective while it repairs itself.

02:47.600 --> 02:51.840
I hate to say it, but I need 
your power to defeat it.

02:53.040 --> 02:53.760
Roger!

02:56.910 --> 02:59.040
Hey, no fair.

03:00.390 --> 03:01.550
All right...

03:01.550 --> 03:03.140
I'll do this, then.

03:12.370 --> 03:15.420
<i>There's no way to predict 
what this guy will do!</i>

03:21.150 --> 03:22.110
Kikoru!

03:22.420 --> 03:24.280
One down.

03:26.300 --> 03:26.980
Huh?

03:34.240 --> 03:38.630
<i>I'm done watching helplessly 
as I lose something...</i>

03:39.550 --> 03:43.030
<i>This time... I'm going to save them.</i>

03:47.990 --> 03:50.930
<i>She's smiling at the cheering crowd</i>

03:50.930 --> 03:53.940
<i>after another successful Kaiju 
neutralization mission!</i>

03:55.040 --> 03:59.160
<i>She's a true valkyrie on the battlefield,
carrying Numbers Weapon 4,</i>

03:59.160 --> 04:02.700
<i>one of the Defense Force's 
mightiest weapons!</i>

04:02.960 --> 04:05.990
<i>Actually, I, Miyamo, am also a fan of hers.</i>

04:04.540 --> 04:07.380
Hey, isn't that Kikoru-chan's mommy?

04:05.990 --> 04:07.700
<i>Oh, I wasn't listening.</i>

04:07.960 --> 04:09.890
Really? Wow!

04:09.890 --> 04:12.470
Your mom's the strongest out of anybody!

04:13.970 --> 04:16.320
Yup! That's my mommy!

04:18.770 --> 04:20.410
I'm home!

04:22.070 --> 04:24.300
Welcome home, ma'am.

04:24.300 --> 04:26.380
I'm so tired...

04:31.630 --> 04:34.220
Mommy! Welcome home!

04:34.640 --> 04:35.980
Hey, Kikoru.

04:36.260 --> 04:38.380
Your mom's tired.

04:41.980 --> 04:45.370
Now you've done it!

04:48.910 --> 04:51.920
Were you a good girl?

04:53.490 --> 04:55.100
Listen! Listen!

04:55.100 --> 05:00.130
We were watching TV today at school, 
and everybody said you were super cool!

05:00.410 --> 05:02.170
Was everybody okay?

05:02.170 --> 05:02.960
Yup!

05:03.360 --> 05:05.470
That's great!

05:10.880 --> 05:12.510
Did you get hurt?

05:13.060 --> 05:17.380
Yeah. Today's Kaiju was pretty tough.

05:17.380 --> 05:18.550
But I'm fine.

05:19.030 --> 05:20.110
Mommy.

05:21.550 --> 05:25.950
I'm going to join the 
Defense Force to help you!

05:31.660 --> 05:34.960
All right. Then when you're 
in trouble, Kikoru...

05:36.500 --> 05:38.710
Mommy will come help you!

06:11.460 --> 06:16.590
<i>The mass Kaiju attacks caused by the appearance
of Kaiju No. 6 have resulted in serious damage.</i>

06:17.100 --> 06:20.240
<i>And the loss of Hikari Shinomiya, 
captain of Division 2,</i>

06:20.560 --> 06:23.540
<i>has cast a shadow on all our hearts.</i>

06:24.580 --> 06:29.770
<i>Without her brave sacrifice, 
the damage would've been far greater.</i>

06:30.820 --> 06:34.570
<i>Condolences are pouring in 
from around the globe,</i>

06:34.920 --> 06:37.770
<i>and temporary memorials have been 
set up all over the country.</i>

06:43.910 --> 06:47.030
<i>Liar... liar...</i>

06:48.380 --> 06:50.290
<i>I'm such a liar...!</i>

06:52.030 --> 06:56.040
<i>I said I'd help you, Mommy, but...</i>

06:56.720 --> 06:57.680
<i>I'm sorry!</i>

07:00.250 --> 07:01.250
Daddy...

07:15.000 --> 07:16.270
<i>I'm sorry, Mommy.</i>

07:16.850 --> 07:23.940
<i>I couldn't save you, but instead, 
I'll become the strongest...</i>

07:32.220 --> 07:34.370
<i>And when I'm on the battlefield...</i>

07:34.370 --> 07:37.170
<i>I'll save everybody, like you would do!</i>

07:37.170 --> 07:39.050
<i>...I won't let anyone die!</i>

07:42.540 --> 07:44.030
The head of the ant?!

07:44.030 --> 07:45.910
No! Her footing!

08:01.780 --> 08:02.640
Kikoru!

08:07.650 --> 08:10.770
Squadron-Style Ax Technique Number Six...

08:14.520 --> 08:16.200
Daruma Dropper!

08:16.780 --> 08:17.780
Now!

08:20.270 --> 08:21.110
Right!

08:22.070 --> 08:24.950
<i>My comrade gave me this chance...</i>

08:30.820 --> 08:33.500
<i>So I'm finishing things here, no matter what!</i>

09:17.310 --> 09:21.190
Kaiju No. 8 has failed to transform again!

09:23.340 --> 09:29.470
<i>No... No. 9 had nothing to do with this.</i>

09:31.780 --> 09:34.060
No. 8 seems to be struggling.

09:35.320 --> 09:37.490
This is why I was opposed 
to the whole thing.

09:38.280 --> 09:41.700
We have no choice but to move to plan B...

09:41.700 --> 09:42.920
<i>I'll go.</i>

09:45.200 --> 09:48.890
I can't let one rookie handle this forever.

10:00.050 --> 10:03.230
<i>Unleashed Combat Power: 98%.</i>

10:07.520 --> 10:09.560
Captain Narumi is at full power!

10:09.560 --> 10:12.020
Designating the surrounding 
area as off-limits!

10:29.560 --> 10:32.710
<i>A blade that burns as it cuts.</i>

10:34.750 --> 10:37.640
<i>I should fall back and shoot him...</i>

10:45.950 --> 10:50.770
Oh... so that's your unique weapon.

10:57.730 --> 11:02.780
<i>A combination of both blade and gun.
 No openings, either close up or far away.</i>

11:03.420 --> 11:04.290
<i>But...</i>

11:21.230 --> 11:23.180
I've already learned how to deal with it.

11:37.750 --> 11:40.680
<i>It spread its body out like roots?</i>

11:44.160 --> 11:45.570
Captain Narumi!

11:45.850 --> 11:48.430
It's evolving during battle.

11:48.430 --> 11:49.090
Yes.

11:49.760 --> 11:53.870
It looks nothing like what was 
in the Third Division's report.

11:54.230 --> 11:59.010
It learns from interactions with 
humans, continually changing...

12:00.230 --> 12:03.260
This Kaiju is like a virus.

12:04.190 --> 12:08.800
Something we've never seen in 
any other Kaiju. It's a threat.

12:09.940 --> 12:12.490
<i>Well, that's scary.</i>

12:12.810 --> 12:15.060
<i>But don't worry!</i>

12:15.590 --> 12:18.490
I'm a bigger threat than it is.

12:18.890 --> 12:20.980
Huh? He's unhurt?

12:23.640 --> 12:24.820
Now...

12:26.240 --> 12:28.860
Now that my suit's warmed up...

12:30.470 --> 12:32.800
It's time for the hunt to begin.

12:33.950 --> 12:37.790
What happened to your eyes? 
They look like a Kaiju's...

12:43.510 --> 12:46.680
<i>I thought I'd figured out that attack...</i>

12:47.450 --> 12:49.250
Retina 0001.

12:49.650 --> 12:53.770
Gen Narumi's other unique weapon.

12:54.250 --> 12:59.310
The oldest Numbers Weapon in Japan, 
created from the retinas of Kaiju No. 1.

13:09.250 --> 13:10.960
<i>Strange...</i>

13:10.960 --> 13:15.120
<i>I thought I'd figured out those attacks, 
but I can't dodge them.</i>

13:15.790 --> 13:18.160
<i>He's going faster?</i>

13:18.680 --> 13:20.670
<i>No, he's not...</i>

13:21.060 --> 13:23.470
<i>He's attacking...</i>

13:24.050 --> 13:26.180
<i>the spot I'm moving to?</i>

13:26.660 --> 13:29.050
Kaiju No. 1 had the power to see the future.

13:29.570 --> 13:33.420
It could visualize the signals 
that appear within the brain

13:33.420 --> 13:35.060
when a living creature is about to move.

13:35.810 --> 13:39.810
It could realize where a person was going 
before that person even knew themselves.

13:40.490 --> 13:41.570
The records say...

13:42.140 --> 13:48.590
that the attacks of this terrifying 
Kaiju could not be dodged.

13:52.370 --> 13:53.570
I see it.

14:04.560 --> 14:06.520
<i>So that's your core.</i>

14:08.770 --> 14:13.490
<i>No... I can't learn fast enough...</i>

14:18.670 --> 14:22.980
<i>Squadron-Style Gunsword Technique 
Number Two - Slash Salvo!</i>

14:30.330 --> 14:33.240
Captain Narumi has taken down the Honju!

14:33.620 --> 14:34.990
Splendidly done.

14:40.040 --> 14:41.970
<i>Now it's your turn,</i>

14:42.720 --> 14:44.460
<i>Kafka Hibino.</i>

14:57.650 --> 14:58.970
<i>This is...</i>

15:00.380 --> 15:01.770
<i>fear.</i>

15:11.700 --> 15:15.730
Fear of... being swallowed 
up by the Kaiju...

15:16.630 --> 15:19.540
Fear of killing my friends...

15:20.390 --> 15:23.350
My own fear...

15:24.770 --> 15:27.090
<i>So that's it.</i>

15:29.550 --> 15:30.950
Don't...

15:32.070 --> 15:33.900
Don't underestimate me!

15:36.400 --> 15:38.110
And not just me!

15:39.010 --> 15:40.590
Captain Ashiro!

15:41.220 --> 15:42.920
Vice-Captain Hoshina!

15:43.860 --> 15:46.810
Reno and the rest of the new recruits!

15:47.260 --> 15:50.570
And more than anything, you yourself!

15:52.830 --> 15:54.940
We're the Defense Force...

15:55.520 --> 15:56.950
Don't underestimate us!

16:05.960 --> 16:07.190
<i>Yeah...</i>

16:07.960 --> 16:10.150
<i>I'm an idiot.</i>

16:11.350 --> 16:15.550
<i>Somebody so strong and cool...</i>

16:17.890 --> 16:22.650
<i>There's no way a loser 
like me could kill them.</i>

16:26.270 --> 16:28.630
<i>Believe...</i>

16:34.540 --> 16:35.940
<i>in your comrades!</i>

16:49.940 --> 16:51.250
Sheesh.

16:54.990 --> 16:57.630
You're always so slow.

16:58.460 --> 17:00.140
Kafka Hibino!

17:02.570 --> 17:05.220
We can't let the battlefield get any bigger.

17:05.530 --> 17:07.730
<i>Don't let them escape 
the neutralization zone!</i>

17:07.730 --> 17:08.450
Tch...

17:08.450 --> 17:11.740
There's too damn many of them.
 We need something to turn the tide...

17:11.740 --> 17:12.600
<i>Report!</i>

17:12.950 --> 17:14.720
<i>On the west side of the neutralization area...</i>

17:14.720 --> 17:16.750
<i>Kaiju No. 8 has appeared!</i>

17:17.270 --> 17:18.400
There we go.

17:18.800 --> 17:21.910
Maybe sending Shinomiya was the right move.

17:21.910 --> 17:24.550
Move to Operation Phase 2!

17:24.820 --> 17:25.840
Roger!

17:26.720 --> 17:29.100
Now let's see how it goes...

17:35.160 --> 17:37.090
Oh, I knew it.

17:37.510 --> 17:41.030
You were Kaiju No. 8 after all.

17:50.930 --> 17:52.940
The dead Yoju...

18:02.140 --> 18:04.840
It was still hiding its power?

18:05.140 --> 18:07.040
Thanks, Kikoru.

18:08.730 --> 18:12.740
I still can't believe in myself 
like I'd want to.

18:14.350 --> 18:15.400
But...

18:16.430 --> 18:21.250
I can believe in all of you, 100%!

18:23.370 --> 18:24.760
You can, huh?

18:24.760 --> 18:29.600
So, can I let you handle the ants?

18:34.250 --> 18:38.100
You're making me fight the wimps 
instead of the big guy.

18:38.530 --> 18:40.420
So if you don't win, I'll kill you.

18:40.850 --> 18:41.800
Right.

18:43.790 --> 18:45.580
I'll go kick its ass.

18:56.370 --> 19:00.760
I owe you for last time, Kaiju No. 8.

19:01.140 --> 19:05.220
I've learned a lot since then.

19:14.600 --> 19:17.610
Now I'm capable of killing you...

19:28.060 --> 19:31.900
Oh, this is the ant's!

19:31.900 --> 19:33.300
Well, whatever.

19:34.580 --> 19:37.130
From the look of how you fought Kikoru,

19:37.540 --> 19:40.380
your core's down there too, right?

19:47.790 --> 19:49.720
<i>Seeing that, I thought to myself...</i>

19:50.430 --> 19:54.310
<i>I haven't brought out 
No. 8's power at all.</i>

19:55.740 --> 19:57.650
<i>It's ironic.</i>

20:10.380 --> 20:12.830
<i>After letting it take me over...</i>

20:12.830 --> 20:15.330
<i>I know how to use my body 
better than before.</i>

20:20.260 --> 20:21.370
Gotcha!

20:31.650 --> 20:33.510
Get ready.

20:34.430 --> 20:36.280
<i>What happened?</i>

20:36.640 --> 20:39.360
This time, you won't escape.

20:40.010 --> 20:42.000
<i>Is he...</i>

20:43.610 --> 20:45.400
<i>different somehow?</i>

20:59.580 --> 21:02.420
This is the real...

21:03.860 --> 21:05.810
Kaiju No. 8...

21:13.290 --> 21:15.050
Incredible.

22:55.190 --> 22:57.880
Soshiro Hoshina's "Hoshi Night Japan"!

22:59.250 --> 23:00.660
Here's this week's guest!

23:00.660 --> 23:02.510
Kikoru Shinomiya has arrived!

23:02.510 --> 23:04.220
Okay, here's today's letter.

23:04.220 --> 23:06.590
This is from someone whose 
radio name is "Kikorukko-san."

23:06.590 --> 23:09.590
"Why are you so perfect, Kikoru-chan?"

23:09.590 --> 23:12.710
Sure, I'm pretty, and athletic,

23:12.710 --> 23:14.920
and I skipped grades to be 
the youngest to graduate

23:14.920 --> 23:17.470
from California Neutralization 
University at the top of my class!

23:17.470 --> 23:19.350
Can you speak any languages 
other than English?

23:22.570 --> 23:23.350
What did you say?

23:23.350 --> 23:24.760
That's Arabic.

23:24.760 --> 23:28.110
"As long as I'm here,
I won't let you skip any letters!"

23:28.110 --> 23:28.770
Wow!

23:30.320 --> 23:33.290
Am I really that perfect?

23:33.290 --> 23:35.620
You'd be more perfect if 
you weren't like that.

23:35.620 --> 23:38.040
See you next week on "Hoshi Night Japan"!

23:38.040 --> 23:40.050
<b>To Be Continued</b>
