EPISODE 3
THE PARABLE OF THE THREE BIRDS

01:48.020 --> 01:50.780
Prepare yourself, Keiji

01:51.940 --> 01:53.150
What's that?

01:53.690 --> 01:54.840
Chickens?

01:56.070 --> 01:59.540
I don't remember doing anything
to you that merits my execution...

01:59.780 --> 02:01.750
Even if you don't,

02:01.750 --> 02:03.680
I do!

02:16.920 --> 02:17.990
What was that?

02:17.990 --> 02:19.140
It's on fire!

02:19.670 --> 02:22.390
Looks like you've got something
dangerous there.

02:22.760 --> 02:27.250
My Thunder baton is charged with
10 million volts of raw power.

02:29.770 --> 02:33.900
I made this especially for
turning you into roast chicken!

02:35.440 --> 02:40.160
That's impressive,
but why do you hate me so much?

02:42.780 --> 02:44.640
You've really forgotten...

02:45.110 --> 02:49.060
But I will never forget that day.

02:49.660 --> 02:50.940
Ever.

02:52.660 --> 02:56.970
Right after I hatched,
I was adopted by a wealthy family.

02:59.970 --> 03:02.850
- Papa and Mama were always kind.
- So cute!

03:03.260 --> 03:07.160
They both showered me with love.

03:05.850 --> 03:07.600
THE TALES OF MOMOTARO

03:07.600 --> 03:13.230
THANK YOU

03:08.080 --> 03:10.960
- I learned all sort of tricks...
- Wow, you're so good at that!

03:11.000 --> 03:13.230
- just to put smiles on their faces.
- My, how wonderful!

03:18.740 --> 03:22.220
- Oh! How's that?
- Do your best, you two!

03:24.240 --> 03:28.140
I had a happy life,
without any inconvenience or want...

03:29.530 --> 03:33.770
But somewhere deep down,
I felt like something was missing.

03:34.330 --> 03:35.860
Then one day...

03:35.860 --> 03:38.230
Un, deux, trois!

03:39.460 --> 03:42.780
Let me dance!!

03:47.800 --> 03:50.400
Kokekkoko!

03:55.020 --> 03:56.210
Are you hurt?

03:56.980 --> 04:01.050
In that instant, I fell in love.

04:02.230 --> 04:03.530
Afterward...

04:03.690 --> 04:05.390
We walked along the beach,

04:05.390 --> 04:08.430
and you told me
stories of your travels.

04:08.740 --> 04:10.560
I'm Elizabeth.

04:10.910 --> 04:12.060
What a beautiful name.

04:12.740 --> 04:16.940
Your stories were so exciting
and everything felt so fresh.

04:19.000 --> 04:20.860
And that night...

04:21.670 --> 04:26.490
To the sound of the waves,
we made love.

04:26.930 --> 04:29.170
Oh, Keiji!

04:29.170 --> 04:32.290
This is what I was missing!

04:32.680 --> 04:36.190
The chance to love somebody!

04:45.360 --> 04:47.180
But you had a different idea...

04:51.570 --> 04:53.520
What?!
Where are you going?!

04:55.700 --> 04:58.840
The next town is waiting for me.

04:58.840 --> 05:02.140
But we were falling in love, right?

05:02.140 --> 05:03.740
So, why?

05:04.670 --> 05:07.030
Love? I don't think so...

05:07.760 --> 05:10.350
I just gave into
my animal instincts.

05:11.300 --> 05:12.450
Be well.

05:23.900 --> 05:25.840
It's been 6 months...

05:26.120 --> 05:29.850
...since you stomped
on my heart and left.

05:30.660 --> 05:32.180
I will never forgive you.

05:32.950 --> 05:34.980
I-Is this woman...

05:34.980 --> 05:37.600
Mister's ex-girlfriend?

05:39.960 --> 05:42.190
Wait, are you telling me
that you're angry

05:42.190 --> 05:43.940
because I left you after
a one-night stand?

05:51.880 --> 05:53.020
I'm gonna kill you!

05:54.800 --> 05:57.400
Stop while you still can.
You're gonna get hurt.

05:57.550 --> 05:58.750
Shut up!

05:59.400 --> 06:02.000
Breaking a young girl's heart...

06:02.310 --> 06:04.150
...is a sin punishable by death!

06:14.160 --> 06:15.330
You're good.

06:15.330 --> 06:17.080
Don't run away, you scumbag!

06:18.870 --> 06:20.060
Whoa!

06:20.060 --> 06:21.310
What?!

06:21.710 --> 06:24.530
Mister, don't run away!

06:24.530 --> 06:28.780
Show her who's boss!

06:34.010 --> 06:35.270
Watch it!

06:35.270 --> 06:36.410
Oh!

06:37.850 --> 06:39.000
No you don't!

06:39.470 --> 06:41.110
Thunder Machine Gun!

07:14.050 --> 07:17.040
Oh, Keiji!

07:24.030 --> 07:25.040
What?!

07:25.900 --> 07:27.910
What are you doing, you monster?!

07:28.900 --> 07:31.990
You never intended to kill me.

07:37.320 --> 07:39.270
Over there, officer!

07:40.130 --> 07:41.750
Let's get out of here!

07:43.580 --> 07:44.980
Hey, they ran off!

07:46.500 --> 07:50.220
I swore I'd kill him
when I found him...

07:50.500 --> 07:52.860
This just proves
I still have lingering feelings!

07:59.550 --> 08:01.210
Hey you!

08:01.760 --> 08:05.040
You kissed my man, didn't you?!

08:05.040 --> 08:06.920
You man thief!!

08:06.920 --> 08:08.420
"Your man"?!

08:08.420 --> 08:11.530
Don't tell me you've laid
your hands on this child?!

08:11.720 --> 08:14.930
Don't be crazy,
I'd never do something like that.

08:14.930 --> 08:18.290
Liar! You have no self-control
when it comes to women!

08:18.480 --> 08:23.290
What?! I'm acting like
I still have feelings for him.

08:23.790 --> 08:27.190
I still haven't forgiven you!

08:32.300 --> 08:34.090
Don't flatter yourself.

08:34.090 --> 08:36.910
I didn't start my journey
just to chase you.

08:37.300 --> 08:39.900
I have a goal of my own.

08:39.900 --> 08:41.350
A goal?

08:41.350 --> 08:44.610
I'm going to exterminate
the Demons.

08:46.980 --> 08:51.150
After you disappeared,
I saw what they did to my town.

08:52.190 --> 08:54.090
It was truly horrible.

08:54.820 --> 08:59.000
My good friends, Yuki the dog,
and Lola the cat....

08:59.200 --> 09:02.850
...were lost along with many others.

09:04.040 --> 09:09.020
Demons are still appearing
all across the country.

09:09.540 --> 09:15.070
People are losing their families
and friends just like me.

09:15.800 --> 09:20.280
All these people around the world
shouldn't have to suffer.

09:22.550 --> 09:26.000
That's why I'm going to exterminate
the demons.

09:27.930 --> 09:29.170
I'm not interested.

09:29.640 --> 09:32.340
I just want to avenge my sister.

09:32.900 --> 09:34.010
Later.

09:34.010 --> 09:34.780
Hey...

09:35.000 --> 09:36.680
The one you want to take down...

09:36.680 --> 09:38.090
...do you know where it is?

09:39.030 --> 09:42.220
You're looking for a Demon with
a marking on its neck, right?

09:42.220 --> 09:43.430
You know?!

09:43.950 --> 09:47.290
Ever since then,
I've been researching Demons.

09:49.670 --> 09:52.530
What's this machine?

09:52.530 --> 09:55.180
A useful tool humans use.

09:55.500 --> 09:59.160
Since the first Demon sighting
three years ago,

09:59.160 --> 10:01.990
over 800 have been confirmed.

10:02.840 --> 10:05.870
They are characterized by
their tendency to destroy cities

10:05.870 --> 10:07.540
and indiscriminately attacking humans.

10:07.540 --> 10:10.540
They've been observed lacking
intelligence and complex behaviors.

10:10.940 --> 10:13.700
Their bodies are mostly
red or blue.

10:14.440 --> 10:17.380
However, recently the Demons
Have been changing.

10:18.730 --> 10:20.220
Variants have started to appear.

10:20.950 --> 10:22.080
Variants?

10:22.360 --> 10:25.980
Variants displaying human-like
emotions and intellect.

10:25.980 --> 10:28.540
Their personality and biology
are all over the place.

10:28.540 --> 10:31.940
- More bass!
- Some attack humans.

10:33.960 --> 10:35.230
Some are peaceful.

10:36.260 --> 10:37.700
- Water!
- Got it!

10:37.700 --> 10:40.030
There are some
who even help humans.

10:40.920 --> 10:42.620
Their bodies seem to
come in all colors

10:42.620 --> 10:44.910
like yellow, green, and purple.

10:45.260 --> 10:48.020
Maybe that one was
a variant as well...

10:51.270 --> 10:53.220
This is the one I want to show you.

10:53.220 --> 10:56.090
This footage is circulating online.

11:01.940 --> 11:03.010
This one...

11:03.400 --> 11:09.400
This is the first confirmed Demon with
four horns or a white body.

11:09.400 --> 11:12.440
They're calling it
the "White Demon" online.

11:19.670 --> 11:21.860
Th-That bird is...!

11:22.920 --> 11:24.120
Big Brother...

11:25.800 --> 11:26.910
Sarah?

11:43.490 --> 11:44.930
Look at his neck.

12:15.310 --> 12:18.920
Mister, please calm down!

12:34.130 --> 12:35.650
Where are you going?

12:37.080 --> 12:39.780
I need some time alone.

12:55.930 --> 12:58.880
Sarah, was that really you?

13:01.770 --> 13:02.880
Damn it!

13:02.880 --> 13:04.970
I don't know what's going on...

13:05.940 --> 13:07.270
It's fine.

13:07.270 --> 13:09.700
The key to everything lies
with that son of a bitch.

13:10.660 --> 13:13.600
I'm going to finish you,
no matter what.

13:24.130 --> 13:25.800
Is it really here?

13:25.970 --> 13:28.370
I'm pooped!

13:28.370 --> 13:31.080
Hold on.
I'll look it up again!

13:35.390 --> 13:36.560
There it is!

13:36.560 --> 13:37.960
A natural hot spring.

13:39.690 --> 13:41.500
Yay! A hot spring!

13:41.500 --> 13:44.110
Thank goodness there are no humans.

13:44.770 --> 13:48.090
Amazing!
So, this is a hot spring?

13:48.090 --> 13:50.470
It's amazing! Yup!

13:51.000 --> 13:53.740
They say the water here
is good for injuries.

13:53.740 --> 13:56.040
The sooner you heal up,

13:56.040 --> 13:59.060
the sooner you'll be ready to
take on the next Demon, right?

14:02.790 --> 14:04.030
That's what I said...

14:04.550 --> 14:07.360
I actually just wanted to take a dip!

14:13.640 --> 14:14.790
What's wrong?

14:17.930 --> 14:19.520
The depth...

14:22.850 --> 14:24.800
I'm worried about how deep it is.

14:26.200 --> 14:28.870
Huh?!
Are you afraid of water?

14:28.870 --> 14:31.720
Are you gonna sink like an stone?
That's so unexpectedly uncool!

14:32.030 --> 14:33.250
Lower your voice!

14:34.070 --> 14:36.930
What does "sink like a stone" mean?

14:37.450 --> 14:40.020
Oh! Are those wild strawberries
over there?

14:40.020 --> 14:41.730
Don't change the subject!

14:41.730 --> 14:43.420
This is like a dream!

14:43.790 --> 14:45.320
Then let me ask you this.

14:46.000 --> 14:49.300
Why would animals who live on land
need to know how to swim?

14:50.300 --> 14:52.350
If you think about it, birds are—

14:54.180 --> 14:56.250
Oops, sorry my leg slipped.

14:56.890 --> 14:58.210
Help me!

14:59.930 --> 15:01.080
I'm gonna die!

15:10.070 --> 15:11.430
The water's pretty nice.

15:11.430 --> 15:13.470
Make sure you submerge yourself
up to your neck.

15:17.620 --> 15:18.730
What's this?

15:18.730 --> 15:19.730
It's a cold towel.

15:20.540 --> 15:25.880
We chickens use our crowns
to regulate body heat.

15:25.880 --> 15:29.930
So, if we cool our crowns,
we won't overheat as quickly.

15:29.930 --> 15:31.890
Humans do this too.

15:35.840 --> 15:37.690
This is paradise.

15:37.690 --> 15:40.400
This is paradise.

15:40.400 --> 15:44.170
Ahh...how long has it been since
I've taken a proper bath?

15:45.310 --> 15:47.030
Before my travels...

15:47.270 --> 15:49.170
It was my daily routine
to sip Romanee-Conti

15:49.170 --> 15:50.970
while enjoying a view of the ocean.

15:51.530 --> 15:53.450
Once all the Demons are defeated,

15:53.450 --> 15:56.640
I want to celebrate with a glass
of Romanee-Conti in the bath.

16:00.950 --> 16:01.940
Ahh!

16:01.940 --> 16:04.650
- Nope! You're too close!
- Uh, wait...?!

16:04.650 --> 16:06.150
Move over there!

16:07.080 --> 16:08.230
Mister!

16:08.790 --> 16:10.090
Oh, yeah!

16:10.590 --> 16:11.780
Hey, Mister...

16:12.220 --> 16:15.700
I still don't have a proper name.

16:15.700 --> 16:19.540
I'd like it if you'd give me one.

16:20.640 --> 16:21.790
Then how about...

16:22.600 --> 16:24.380
- ...Piyoko?
- How thoughtless!

16:24.380 --> 16:26.790
- I like it!
- You like it?!

16:26.790 --> 16:28.920
You know that name will follow you
into adulthood?!

16:28.920 --> 16:33.160
It's the name he gave me
and I will cherish it!

16:36.160 --> 16:38.290
DUTY

16:38.290 --> 16:41.920
So, why do you have "duty" written
on your back?

16:41.920 --> 16:44.670
DUTY

16:46.000 --> 16:47.440
All right, well...

16:47.440 --> 16:49.190
You gave me a towel,

16:49.190 --> 16:51.550
so I'll tell you a special story
in exchange.

16:51.550 --> 16:53.110
My Pops wrote it for me.

16:52.070 --> 16:57.120
DUTY

16:53.150 --> 16:56.870
He wanted me to help those in need.

16:57.120 --> 17:00.580
Eat up and grow strong, you got it?

17:02.050 --> 17:03.620
Pops...!

17:07.030 --> 17:12.010
Pops!!

17:21.500 --> 17:24.820
I've decided that
I want to follow you, after all, Mister!

17:24.820 --> 17:27.360
She seems very conflicted.

17:28.540 --> 17:30.690
Hmm? "Follow you"?

17:32.880 --> 17:34.830
That's not what this is about!

17:34.830 --> 17:38.070
Because I'm never forgiving him!

17:46.060 --> 17:48.480
Oh, Mister!

17:48.480 --> 17:54.200
EKAWA HOT SPRINGS

17:48.920 --> 17:53.510
You got stubborn and stayed
in the hot water too long.

17:55.270 --> 17:56.320
Huh?

18:02.320 --> 18:04.230
A monster!!

18:05.830 --> 18:07.940
So, you've shown yourself, Demon!

18:07.940 --> 18:09.940
I hate monsters!

18:12.880 --> 18:15.190
It's me. Elizabeth.

18:16.840 --> 18:19.300
What happened?
Did you fall in the river?

18:19.300 --> 18:20.470
Huh?

18:20.470 --> 18:22.910
How rude.
It's a mud bath.

18:22.870 --> 18:24.230
MUD BATHS

18:24.230 --> 18:28.080
It said online, the mud here
is good for your skin.

18:28.080 --> 18:31.040
Even hens want to look nice.

18:31.040 --> 18:35.260
Seriously.
You don't understand women at all.

18:56.920 --> 18:57.900
Keiji.

18:59.920 --> 19:01.950
What's on your mind?

19:05.050 --> 19:07.330
The White Demon
you showed me yesterday...

19:07.770 --> 19:11.000
I've been trying to
remember it calmly.

19:11.430 --> 19:13.670
I have a feeling
he's a bit different

19:13.670 --> 19:15.550
from the one in my memory.

19:16.730 --> 19:18.260
That Phoenix too...

19:18.900 --> 19:20.740
At first I thought it was Sarah,
somehow, but...

19:20.930 --> 19:22.430
...there's probably no connection.

19:22.950 --> 19:24.850
What? Your sister?

19:24.850 --> 19:28.230
No way!
Because...

19:28.710 --> 19:30.060
...it was on fire.

19:35.170 --> 19:37.940
Ready or not, here I come!

19:37.940 --> 19:39.990
I'm ready!

19:49.390 --> 19:51.370
Over here, Big Brother!

19:57.940 --> 19:59.090
Sarah!!

20:08.330 --> 20:09.930
- Big Brother?
- Are you okay?

20:09.930 --> 20:11.350
Big Brother!
In front of you!

20:23.350 --> 20:26.220
Please stop!

20:43.360 --> 20:44.680
So that's what happened...

20:46.030 --> 20:49.940
But, like I said before,
I have no proof...

20:49.940 --> 20:54.040
...he's the one I'm looking for.

20:54.330 --> 20:57.980
The fact that variants have
begun to appear...

20:57.980 --> 21:02.050
most likely means
the Demons are evolving.

21:02.590 --> 21:05.390
If that White Demon is some
evolved form...

21:05.390 --> 21:08.410
....it would make sense that
its appearance is different.

21:08.970 --> 21:10.080
Also...

21:10.720 --> 21:13.290
Isn't that mark on its neck
undeniable proof?

21:14.020 --> 21:16.460
Anyway, we should track down
the White Demon!

21:16.770 --> 21:19.070
Finding him will lead to answers.

21:19.070 --> 21:21.300
So, about the plan...

21:21.610 --> 21:24.070
Let's see here...

21:24.070 --> 21:27.090
The White Demon appeared in
a place called Tokyo,

21:27.090 --> 21:29.930
- 300 kilometers northeast from here.
- Elizabeth...

21:29.930 --> 21:31.470
It will take some time...
Huh?

21:32.870 --> 21:33.980
Where's Piyoko?

21:35.870 --> 21:39.770
That's strange...
She was sleeping right here...

21:40.670 --> 21:42.490
Where did she go?

21:51.800 --> 21:55.000
Mister! Please help me!!

21:55.000 --> 21:58.630
I'm gonna get eaten!

23:40.000 --> 23:43.880
The village was located at the bottom
an ominous valley.

23:43.880 --> 23:46.570
The zombie-like villagers were
being controlled.

23:46.570 --> 23:48.840
That was where we...!

23:48.840 --> 23:51.280
Next time:
Homing in on Desire

23:51.280 --> 23:54.410
Keiji! What are you doing?
You pervert!
