The key is to size up your target.

02:10.670 --> 02:18.010
Assess the machine, the prize's position,
the strength of the arm, and so on. And then...

02:18.970 --> 02:19.880
Strike your prey!

02:21.150 --> 02:22.310

02:41.460 --> 02:42.820

If a Master is asking for help 
from a family she has no ties to,

06:18.790 --> 06:20.870
she must be in a pretty bad spot.

06:22.630 --> 06:24.880

07:36.660 --> 07:41.670
Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak.

07:39.660 --> 07:41.160
It's that table again.

07:39.660 --> 07:42.210
Don't look. Just ignore them.

07:49.240 --> 07:50.290
Ham!

07:51.200 --> 07:52.300
Let's start over.

07:52.640 --> 07:55.790
I'm Kimie Arashiyama, the Hamster Master.

07:55.790 --> 07:57.900
This is my partner, Sirius.

07:58.590 --> 08:02.530
Hikaru Gero, he's the one 
who found you in town.

08:03.770 --> 08:07.300
When it comes to intel-gathering 
and small, fiddly stuff, I'm your woman.

08:07.300 --> 08:10.280
At least as long as I have 
these little guys helping me.

08:10.280 --> 08:12.050
He's adorable!

08:12.460 --> 08:13.280
Ham.

08:13.610 --> 08:14.740
Ham.

08:14.740 --> 08:16.740
So you're related to the Beast Clan.

08:17.050 --> 08:22.660
Masters are all expert killers, 
but not necessarily good fighters.

08:23.070 --> 08:26.000
Technically, I'm more about 
assassination and traps myself.

08:26.460 --> 08:29.130
All that, and you're still 
not a "good fighter"?

08:29.550 --> 08:32.630
I don't want anything to do
 with the Hitman Hunter,

08:33.170 --> 08:39.220
but the association I'm part of 
is all fired up to take the jerk out.

08:39.220 --> 08:41.480
And you're in danger, 
so you want a bodyguard?

08:41.480 --> 08:42.220
You got it.

08:43.170 --> 08:47.110
If you're in an association of clans, 
just get one of them to protect—

08:47.110 --> 08:48.560
No chance of that.

08:50.240 --> 08:53.410
Up until my great-great-grandpa's 
generation, we were Rat Masters.

08:53.410 --> 08:57.860
Even the main Beast Clan respected us, 
so we got to throw our weight around.

08:58.370 --> 09:00.450
Now, though, our bloodline's thinned out,

09:00.450 --> 09:05.500
and I wouldn't be surprised if we got 
stripped of our Master title tomorrow.

09:07.060 --> 09:10.210
Me, I've never even killed anybody.

09:10.210 --> 09:12.810
This collar's the only link I have left.

09:12.810 --> 09:15.470
All the branches of the Beast Clan
 have to wear them.

09:16.170 --> 09:18.140
So you see how it is.

09:19.170 --> 09:21.800
I show up to association meetings 
when they tell me to,

09:21.800 --> 09:24.900
but they've already decided 
the important stuff without me.

09:24.900 --> 09:27.020
Like this plan to take on the Hunter.

09:27.770 --> 09:29.520
They said to my face:

09:30.040 --> 09:32.270
"A 'Master' who can't and doesn't kill,

09:32.520 --> 09:35.770
and who works a normal job
at a normal company,"

09:35.770 --> 09:39.020
should at least make herself useful
 as a shield."

09:42.220 --> 09:43.710
Thanks for today.

09:44.240 --> 09:45.450
I feel calmer now.

09:46.660 --> 09:50.550
I got carried away earlier, but the future head
 of one of the Five Great Families

09:50.550 --> 09:53.250
wouldn't guard a branch-family nobody 
in a million years.

09:53.820 --> 09:56.550
I can't afford your massive fee, 
for one thing.

09:58.090 --> 10:00.630
<i>I'm so glad I got to meet my fave
 before I die.</i>

10:01.700 --> 10:03.310
Let's say 10,000 yen a day.

10:04.400 --> 10:06.140
When should I start guarding you?

10:06.140 --> 10:08.010
Are you sure, Gero?

10:09.320 --> 10:10.150
I mean...

10:11.400 --> 10:14.650
You're in a real bind, 
aren't you, Arashiyama?

10:17.800 --> 10:19.780
Well, I don't see a problem.

10:20.220 --> 10:22.960
<i>This wasn't part of my plan 
to get you hitched.</i>

10:22.960 --> 10:26.790
<i>Still, you sure are honing 
that charm of yours. Good job.</i>

10:31.250 --> 10:33.490
It's like he's acting out my fantasies.

10:33.310 --> 10:34.360
So he <i>was</i> cheating?

10:33.490 --> 10:35.470
Kinosaki, what should I do?

10:34.360 --> 10:35.510
A falling out?

10:35.470 --> 10:37.470
Try hugging her back.

10:36.190 --> 10:37.820
A love triangle?

10:37.470 --> 10:39.550
Huh? You know I can't!

10:37.820 --> 10:39.570
Maybe he proposed?

10:43.840 --> 10:45.510
Oh, there you are.

10:45.510 --> 10:46.710
Hey.

10:45.510 --> 10:46.710
Ham!

10:46.710 --> 10:51.510
Hikaru Gero and assistant! I'm gonna 
introduce you to the association today.

10:51.510 --> 10:52.560
Ham!

10:52.850 --> 10:55.160
Like it or not, 
you'll have to deal with them.

10:55.770 --> 10:59.280
They'll all be in for a shock 
when I show up with Hikaru Gero!

10:56.200 --> 10:58.820
<i>So this is how Arashiyama normally acts?</i>

10:59.280 --> 11:02.040
<i>She's the quirkiest woman so far,</i>

11:02.240 --> 11:04.160
<i>but she is a fellow Master.</i>

11:04.160 --> 11:07.540
<i>Maybe someone like her 
will mesh with Gero better than I think.</i>

11:09.790 --> 11:11.670
<b>Cuddly Animal Plaza</b>

11:09.790 --> 11:11.670
<b>Closed</b>

11:10.140 --> 11:11.110
This is the place.

11:11.890 --> 11:13.250
I'll do the introductions.

11:13.630 --> 11:15.630
<b>Serpent Master

11:13.960 --> 11:15.630
Serpent Master, Ryumon.

11:15.630 --> 11:17.880
<b>Owl Master, Chojabaru</b>

11:15.630 --> 11:17.880

11:23.890 --> 11:25.890

11:24.140 --> 11:25.890
Alligator Master, Hamawaki.

11:29.910 --> 11:31.540
Is everybody napping?

11:31.540 --> 11:33.600
No, the humans...

11:34.440 --> 11:35.980
are all dead.

11:44.920 --> 11:47.530
Are you in the association, too?
 What happened?

11:48.380 --> 11:49.130
Who's that?

11:50.950 --> 11:53.000
Kinosaki! Arashiyama! Run!

12:01.270 --> 12:02.300
Um...

12:02.300 --> 12:05.800
You're a Poison Master, aren't you?

12:06.180 --> 12:08.930
I don't know what you're doing here,

12:10.010 --> 12:11.570
but this is perfect timing.

12:12.130 --> 12:14.290
Now I don't have to go look for you.

12:14.990 --> 12:18.500
And I can cross a big name off my list.

12:21.050 --> 12:23.030
<b>The Hitman Hunter</b>

12:24.040 --> 12:24.870

12:26.400 --> 12:27.530
Did he just...

12:27.840 --> 12:29.090
stab him?

12:29.090 --> 12:30.200
Hey.

12:30.650 --> 12:32.580
Run. Now.

12:37.370 --> 12:39.840
<i>I avoided a fatal cut by a hair.</i>

<i>I've stopped the bleeding,

12:43.470 --> 12:45.550
You the Hitman Hunter?

12:45.840 --> 12:47.390
What are you after?

13:02.370 --> 13:03.490
<i>He did that...</i>

13:04.010 --> 13:05.740
<i>with one little knife?</i>

13:06.100 --> 13:07.820
<i>This guy's not human.</i>

13:22.210 --> 13:24.220
<i>I'm in trouble if this drags out.</i>

13:24.220 --> 13:27.090
<i>Can I hold out and set a trap
 for him? No chance.</i>

13:27.650 --> 13:29.800
<i>I've just gotta face him head-on,</i>

13:30.390 --> 13:32.100
<i>and go all out from the start.</i>

14:13.250 --> 14:14.510
What's up?

14:14.510 --> 14:16.620
Huh? A mistake?

14:17.410 --> 14:19.520
Yeah. Okay.

14:19.830 --> 14:23.020
But the Poison Master's 
still a hitman, right?

14:23.960 --> 14:26.380
He takes bodyguard gigs on the Dark Nav?

14:26.740 --> 14:28.790
Are you sure you've got the right guy?

14:29.380 --> 14:32.200
No one in the Five Great Families
 works gigs like that.

14:32.700 --> 14:37.560
And he seems dangerous. 
He shot two syringes into his own neck.

14:37.870 --> 14:42.590
Yeah, two at once. Dangerous, right?

14:43.710 --> 14:46.330
I think I'd better take care
 of him now after all.

14:47.050 --> 14:47.730
Yeah.

14:50.550 --> 14:52.220
<i>I'll beat him to the punch.</i>

15:19.080 --> 15:19.870
<i>No way.</i>

15:20.140 --> 15:22.580
<i>I took Toxin: Vision, 
and I still can't keep track of him?</i>

15:23.590 --> 15:25.070
That was a close one.

15:28.150 --> 15:29.380
You guys okay?

15:29.650 --> 15:32.010
You'd better believe it

15:34.690 --> 15:36.890
You sure are nice to the animals.

15:38.170 --> 15:40.680
Did they do anything wrong?

15:41.000 --> 15:45.010
Where did you come from? 
A branch of the Iron Clan?

15:45.480 --> 15:48.270
I'm just a regular guy.

15:48.960 --> 15:51.120
No way. You must be from some family.

15:51.120 --> 15:54.200
I don't need to lie to someone
 who's about to die.

15:55.590 --> 15:58.740

16:09.520 --> 16:12.470
<i>and this freak has surpassed them in one.</i>

16:10.130 --> 16:12.830
I've got lunch plans with my girlfriend.

16:12.830 --> 16:15.970
<i>Damn it. I've never tried this before,</i>

16:16.270 --> 16:17.470

16:21.920 --> 16:24.980

It's suicide.

16:29.980 --> 16:33.760
<i>I guess I should've known a triple dose...</i>

16:34.650 --> 16:37.430

18:14.600 --> 18:16.630
H-Hang on! What are you doing?

18:16.630 --> 18:18.010
What do you mean?

18:18.310 --> 18:21.510
I'm taking him to a doctor. 
He's at death's door.

18:21.510 --> 18:22.240
Huh?

18:22.240 --> 18:24.390
Canis Major gave him a change of heart?

18:25.020 --> 18:27.230
Didn't you come to kill me?

18:27.230 --> 18:28.890
Why save my life?

I've never seen Masters try to cover

I don't want to kill you anymore.

is to wipe out the Beast Clan, 
one of the Five Great Families.

19:03.430 --> 19:08.520
I heard they were planning "something 
dangerous that'll kill a lot of people,"

19:08.740 --> 19:12.520
so I figured I'd take them out 
before the damage could get too bad.

19:13.070 --> 19:16.080
Why did you hunt people 
who weren't Beast Masters, then?

19:16.080 --> 19:17.210

19:26.000 --> 19:29.850
A homicidal maniac 
they did a deal with once.

19:29.850 --> 19:31.700

Dan the Dismemberer...

19:43.050 --> 19:47.720
took payment for killings 
in octogenarian men instead of money.

19:48.580 --> 19:54.060
Kushima the Spear Master would involve 
innocent bystanders to get his jobs done.

20:43.790 --> 20:46.360
At least, not right now.

20:47.030 --> 20:49.090
So, uh...

20:49.090 --> 20:50.950
You mean you're letting us go?

20:50.950 --> 20:51.790
Ham!

20:52.040 --> 20:54.130
Well, problem solved, then!

20:56.410 --> 21:02.110
Mr. Gero, do you know about the Beast Clan
 through your family connections?

21:02.110 --> 21:03.630
Of course not.

21:04.320 --> 21:07.270
People call us the Five Great Families
 for convenience,

21:07.270 --> 21:09.640
but it's not like we have much
 to do with each other.

21:09.640 --> 21:11.230
Oh, I see.

21:12.780 --> 21:17.270
You're from a branch of the Beast Clan.
 Do you know anything?

21:17.270 --> 21:20.050
I've never visited the main house
 or met any of the family.

21:20.050 --> 21:21.150
That figures.

21:21.150 --> 21:24.770
All I know is I have this collar 
they give all the branch fami—

21:27.590 --> 21:28.660
Arashiyama!

21:31.300 --> 21:32.540
A bat?

21:33.390 --> 21:35.290
Wh-What happened to Arashiyama?

21:35.580 --> 21:36.620
I don't know.

21:36.620 --> 21:38.500
Did this collar cause it?

21:38.500 --> 21:39.630
<i>Whoa there.</i>

21:39.630 --> 21:43.500
<i>If you try to break that, 
it'll suck the host's blood dry.</i>

21:44.100 --> 21:48.640
<i>The Bonda Constrictor is a living accessory
 engineered to suck blood.</i>

21:48.640 --> 21:53.330
<i>I went ahead and activated it, meaning 
that woman's got three days to live, tops.</i>

21:54.040 --> 21:55.370
Why put that on her?

21:55.370 --> 21:57.710
<i>Wouldn't want 'em running off now, would I?</i>

21:57.710 --> 21:59.480
<i>The livestock, I mean.</i>

22:01.210 --> 22:03.040
<i>Don't give me that death glare.</i>

22:03.040 --> 22:05.880
<i>Hikaru Gero. Piichi Nakagawa.</i>

22:05.880 --> 22:09.240
<i>If you're looking for me, 
I'll extend a special invitation to you.</i>

22:10.030 --> 22:15.280
<i>Come to the Beast Clan's home turf:
Dogo Animal Kingdom.</i>

23:46.460 --> 23:48.580
Listening to you makes me sick.

23:47.040 --> 23:50.610
<i>Ultra simple: everything about 
chopping squid you're in too deep to ask.</i>

23:47.870 --> 23:51.530
Kota Hanezawa!

23:48.580 --> 23:51.170
This is 100% a trap
 for sure!

23:49.500 --> 23:52.620
This is what somebody 
who <i>is</i> good at fighting can do.

23:50.610 --> 23:53.220
Absolutely delicious.

23:53.220 --> 23:55.930
Next time: "The Animal Kingdom."

23:53.220 --> 23:56.270
