Elfen Lied (2004) s01e01 Episode Script

A Chance Encounter

Os iusti meditabitur sapientiam The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom Et lingua eius loquetur indicium And his tongue shall speak judgment Beatus vir qui suffert tentationem Blessed is the man that endureth temptation Quoniam cum probatus fuerit accipient coronam vitae For when he hath been proved, he shall receive a crown of life Kyrie, ignis divine, eleison Lord, fire divine, have mercy O quam sancta, quam serena Oh how holy, how serene Quam benigma, quam amoena How benign, how pleasant O castitatis lilium Oh lily of purity Stop it! It must be tough working as Chief Kurama's secretary, Miss Kisaragi.
What? Why do you say that? The look in his eyes isn't normal somehow.
It's scary, isn't it? What? He's a kind person.
But I can't be of much help making mistakes all the time.
But I, Kisaragi, am trying my best! A state of emergency has been declared.
The underground research block will be sealed in 60 seconds.
All staff please evacuate immediately.
I repeat.
A state of emergency has been declared.
The underground research block will be sealed in 60 seconds.
All staff please evacuate Don't panic! The manual said that we'll be safe if we stay more than two meters away.
Oh, didn't it also say "don't drop things on the floor"? Kisaragi! Chief Kurama! I'm sorry! I did it again Run, Kisaragi! What's this? Run away, now! Lucy, don't! Shoot her! Shoot! Don't hesitate! We're out of bullets! You bitch! Stay put! She's heading to the emergency exit! Bring the partition down and lock her up! The outer partition's been opened? That can't be right! I don't need your excuses! Just send me a sniper! Finish her with just one bullet.
With her, you're not going to get a second shot.
This is a 50-caliber antitank rifle.
Even her vectors won't be able to repel this bullet.
Target the back of her head.
Roger.
Damn it! It didn't finish her off! You're Kohta, right? Uhm I'm Yuka, your cousin.
Oh, Yuka?! Geez.
Since I didn't see you at the station, I looked all over for you.
Sorry.
But I'm surprised you figured out that I was here.
You liked watching the ocean from here, right? I remembered it.
The scenery looks just like it did when I was a kid.
I'd never have thought that we'd be going to the same college.
Since we've come this far, let's go see the ocean! Hey, what're you doing?! Come on! We used to play there a lot! We used to play here a lot, didn't we? The three of us, including Kanae, came here on the last day too.
Kanae She was collecting seashells here.
Big brother! I got a bunch of seashells! Look! Look! I don't think they look that pretty.
Kohta What is it? Look the other way.
What's going on? How am I supposed to know? Nyu Uhm Hey Kohta, take off your clothes for now! Huh? Never mind, just take them off! It seems she doesn't understand what we're saying, huh? Hey, look at this.
She's injured pretty badly.
That headdress looks like horns, huh? No way! They're sticking right out from her head! Liar Kohta Kohta I'm talking to you, Kohta! What is it? I've been saying that we should take her to your place for now.
My place? The place where you'll be living from now on.
Because we can't leave her like this.
It's all right.
Don't worry.
Okay? Nyu? The house that your family's going to rent out to me.
Is this it? It was a Japanese-style restaurant, although they aren't in business any more.
Mom says that as long as you clean the house every day, she doesn't need any rent.
So, uhm What is it? How many rooms are there in this house? If I remember correctly, I think there're ten rooms.
Am I supposed to clean all of them all by myself? And the garden too.
In other words, she put me in charge of a vacant house? Well, they say that if no one lives in a building, it falls into disrepair quickly, so Nyu? I'm coming in.
Wow.
This already looks like an antique.
It doesn't work even when it's wound up, so it must be broken.
Oh, darn.
Kohta, use this room for the time being.
Okay.
Nyu.
What is it? Nyu.
Hey.
Well I don't know what to do.
I don't even know her name.
Since she keeps saying "Nyu, nyu," why don't we just call her Nyu? What?! Nyu.
Look.
She likes it too.
You think so? What's the matter? You shouldn't go to the bathroom in a place like this.
Nyu.
Sorry to make you clean it up by yourself.
You didn't have to make her wear my underwear.
But there was nothing else for her to wear.
I'll go and buy some later.
By the way, shall we eat? I brought rice balls.
Would you like some too? Nyu.
Hey, I wonder where she came from and what she was doing.
I don't know.
Haven't you ever had rice balls? You hold it like this, and You're hopeless.
Look, that's what you get for stuffing it all into your mouth at once.
The cage, the partition with five locks and the security system.
Everything was perfect.
The reason that the shutter system opened on its own is still unknown.
Right now killing Lucy is a higher priority than figuring that out.
Killing her? Not capturing her? We'll use the SAT, Special Assault Team.
If we release Lucy into the world, then mankind will perish.
That's incredible.
He locked onto and shot all the targets at the same time.
Anyone who could defeat Bandoh one-on-one would be a monster.
A monster, huh? If only his personality were a little more normal.
Bandoh! Do it seriously! Shit! What the hell's the point of shooting at stuff that doesn't scream or bleed! This is stupid! Let me shoot people! Real people! You bastard! I see This is stupid.
I'm done with this shit.
A murderer escaped from the detainment facility this morning.
I want you to find her immediately and shoot her dead.
Shoot her dead? You mean I can shoot without warning? So, shoot her dead, huh? Mr.
Bandoh.
Don't stand behind me, you stupid bitch! Excellent.
I did a quick cleanup of the house for you.
Thanks.
This was a one-time only special service.
From tomorrow, you'll definitely have to I know.
Nyu.
What shall we do with her? We can't let her stay here.
I wonder if we should contact the police after all.
Yeah.
Oops.
That Could it be from that time? Big brother! It's pretty! It really is.
I'm surprised you found something like this.
And? Okay, you did a good job.
Okay, then.
I'll give this to you, big brother.
Right after that she died of a disease, so A disease? You said disease? This is like a memento.
And since I came back here, I thought I'd take it with me.
Kohta What is it? Kohta! What are you doing?! I said it was my sister's memento, didn't I?! Kohta, no! What are you thinking?! Kohta, I said no! You can't just say that you were kidding! Kohta, stop it! Calm down! Nyu must have thought You! Get out! Hey, Kohta! Get out! What are you saying?! I said get out! Knock it off! This isn't funny! I said calm down, Kohta! What the hell was she thinking? Maybe since you looked sad I think she might have thought that the seashell was bad.
If you're sad every time you remember Kanae, I think Kanae will be sad too.
I'm gonna go and look for her since it's already dark and it's pouring outside.
We'll soon be above Kamakura.
I didn't expect to receive an order to shoot a minor in this country.
Hey, this world's gotten pretty damn cool, don't you think? Watch your mouth! What do you think our mission is?! What're you doing?! Hey, stop it! What're you thinking? Stop! What are we training every day for? Killing, right? Do you get that? I don't care if this gets your rocks off, but be on guard.
Your target is a vicious criminal who killed 23 people within just five minutes.
The hunter, and the hunted.
The tables were turned, and then turned yet again.
Unwavering impulse and also innocent behavior.
She feels pleasure due to her innocence.
