Good morning, Jeff.
Good morning, Arthur.
Good morning, Kaite.
Good morning, everybody.
Vash, come back immediately!
Emergency level E-3.
Initiating formation flight
maintenance procedure.
Stage five. Recalculating.
This ship is falling. Please evacuate.
-Not here
-This ship is falling.
Please evacuate.
Vash!
Nai! Rem!
What happened? Why are we falling?
It's nothing. The AI is exaggerating.
Quick. Come with me.
Get in. Hurry up!
What about everyone still asleep?
Is there enough time for them to get out?
Of course. Just get in.
Rem. Come aboard.
I love you very much.
Rem?
I have to save at least you two.
Vash, Nai.
I'm very happy
that I met you.
Re Rem!
Rem!
Today is May 25th, the time is 10 AM.
November Channel presents
you with the news of the day
from all over the planet.
-Yesterday, the government of July
-That's rare. From July?
My drink! What's the hurry, rookie?
You may be my senior, but it's
inappropriate to drink at work, Roberto.
Plus
My name is not "Rookie"!
Thanks for reminding me.
You graduated from November University.
A real elite
It's been my dream to become a journalist.
Weirdo.
I'll be a senior editor
at the News Desk one day.
How sad to see such a potential star
assigned to report gossip, eh?
This is why I said I didn't want
to be some rookie's babysitter.
This is work.
And do you have any intention
of learning my name?
It's Meryl Stryfe.
Oh, yeah?
Okay. Fine.
Listen carefully, rookie.
This is the barren planet, No Man's Land.
It's a harsh and brutal place to live.
You are either predator or prey.
You'll see soon enough.
You'd better learn to exist in a world
where only the fittest survive,
young lady.
Stop patronizing me!
-You spilled my drink!
-Just wait till I get a real scoop!
Fine, fine
And then I'll become a big
name in the department.
What are you so worked up about?
-Are you even listening to me?
-Yeah, yeah.
I forgot to charge the car battery.
You
are definitely going to die quickly.
I'm so thirsty.
Do you even think he's real?
This Humanoid Typhoon
or whatever they call him
What? You've really never heard of him?
They say he ruins
the lives of everyone involved with him.
That's why they call him
The Humanoid Typhoon.
How can a monster like that be real?
Well. however ridiculous
it may be, I won't give up.
I'll dig up a big scoop,
no matter how many years it takes me.
-Roberto
-I think we found them.
This is the work of the Bad Lads Gang.
The corpses here were mutilated too.
It fell off.
-That's creepy.
-I agree. Let's go.
Whoa! Hold on!
But
We can't just leave him like this.
Oh, man
Thank you.
Are you a gunman?
I don't like fighting that much, though.
But you are a gunman?
Is that Lost Technology?
That uniform
July Military Police.
What are they doing at the border?
Military Police? Thank god!
Hey!
Hello there!
Hey you.
Have you seen this man?
Answer me, young lady.
Can you tell us what he did?
Journalists, huh?
Then you must have heard his name.
They call him the Humanoid Typhoon.
He's been killing, thieving,
and taking Plants for his own.
A criminal with a bounty
of six million dollars.
So, have you seen him?
I have! He
He fled that way!
Why didn't you say so sooner, idiots?
Why thank you
We'll give you to them once we've
got an exclusive interview.
Well done, rookie.
My name is Meryl Stryfe!
And if he's innocent,
it's our job to clear his name.
I'm so lucky to have a chance to meet
kind people like you.
Oh please, you're exaggerating.
What a phony
This is not a great place to talk.
Why don't we go to the diner
nearby for the interview?
Diner?
Why didn't you tell me
earlier? Is it this way?
Wait It's not!
-Or this way?
-No
The Humanoid Typhoon
Vash the Stampede
Who is he really?
Water
Western town
Jeneora Rock
Well, well
This is no place for kids, little girl.
Could I have some water
I can't hear you if you don't speak up.
I knew she'd be here.
I got assigned the world's
most annoying rookie.
Vash!
Another baby, Rosa?
Yeah, yeah
-Where's your man?
-I kicked that idiot out long ago.
You never change.
You seem very close.
Of course. Because he's
the savior of Jeneora Rock.
Savior?
Which brings me to you two. Who are you
and what do you want with Vash?
Answer wrong and this
could become an ugly scene.
Th-They're both friends of mine!
And what about the ropes?
What ropes?
Fine
Knowing Vash, you must have your reasons
So what will it be? For you two, as well.
I want whiskey.
We're working.
Three glasses of water.
You college graduates are all squares.
Not to be immodest, but I happen to have
been a top student at November Uni
Rookie?
Sorry
We have to buy water from out of town now.
Because the water Plant here is broken.
Nobody can get clean water these days.
A broken Plant
But it may be a stroke of luck
that you all dropped by.
Can you have a look at it again,
Vash?
Who'd have thought
you were a Plant technician
I'm full of surprises.
The Plant had another
malfunction a few years ago,
and he repaired it for free.
And that's how he
became your "savior," eh?
What's up, rookie? Don't you
know what a Plant is?
Of course I do!
It's a lost technology
from the age of space travel.
A biologically powered reactor that can
make any form of matter from scratch,
enabling human survival on this planet.
Very impressive!
A perfect textbook answer
New Plants can't be built.
To get them, you have to pay up
or take them from somewhere else.
That's why all the cities keep
their Plants under close watch.
A red Plant
Red means
Is it bad?
Its lifespan is
You'd have to pay a lot of money
to buy a new one.
But if you do nothing,
things will only get worse
Did I hear someone say "a lot of money?"
Found you, Humanoid Typhoon.
The July Military Police!
Don't you know that man
has a bounty on him?
Six million
How ironic Just about
the price of a Plant.
Give him to me and the money is yours.
I'd really appreciate it
if we could avoid a fight.
Then why don't you surrender?
-Get him!
-Ouch
Stay still!
-Trying to fight back, bastard?
-You are sick!
How can they do that?
No one is going to help you!
That six million is worth more
to them than your measly life!
Ow
You really don't have to use violence.
-Okay.
-Back to July for you.
This one was easy.
Stand up!
Are you sure that's what you want to do?
Roberto!
Reporting on this
will bring in a lot of dough.
You're the reporters we met back there.
How about this for a headline?
"July Military Police Reveal
their True Cowardice."
"Thugs threaten unarmed
man with guns." Right?
I like it!
If you had class, you'd settle things
in a one-on-one duel.
-A duel?
-I see.
Or else you Military Police
will forever be a laughing stock.
He's only kidding! It was a joke!
-Sounds fun.
-Captain!
You mean it?
-I thought we were going home
-A duel? Really?
Excuse me
A duel!
-Five grand on Vash!
-Ten grand on July!
Let's make it a shoot-out.
The last one standing wins.
Roberto, I'm not sure
this was the right move.
I mean, that guy
looks like he has absolutely no chance!
A duel isn't necessarily won
by whoever draws quicker.
Being either too fast
or too slow can spell defeat.
Just watch.
I doubt he's as weak as you think.
Draw your gun.
Draw your gun!
No thanks.
Draw your gun now. This is a duel.
No.
This is so silly.
I see how it is.
Silly, indeed
A duel has got to be more sensational!
Captain!
Using a cluster munition here
will destroy the whole area
We need him alive, Captain!
We'd better run!
I was never interested in an actual duel.
-Let's enjoy this, Humanoid Typhoon!
-That guy is crazy.
You despicable coward!
How many times do you
want to die in one day, rookie?
Listen, we're just reporters.
Not Military Police or bodyguards.
But
From now on,
remember that only the fortunate
have the luxury of saying "coward."
Got it?
Yeah.
Vash! Over here, quickly!
Get inside the building!
He doesn't want anyone else to get hurt
That idiot Still trying to be a hero
He's the type that always
dies first, just like you.
Don't tell me
I forgot.
I'm out of ammo.
Seriously?
Serves you right, lame brain!
Bullets! Who has bullets?
Anyone got 0,22 bullets?
Help me!
Someone! Anyone!
Why is no one helping him?
Someone!
Please give me 0,22 caliber bullets!
Take this one!
It's from Ms. Rosa!
Aw man!
The bullet!
Got it!
Only one?
Talk about penny-pinching!
Thank you.
You wish!
Are you finished?
Just Just you wait!
You sure are an amazing gunman.
That was quite a scare
I never thought I could
do it with just one bullet.
Guess I'm just super lucky.
Who are you afraid of?
Is it about the red Plant?
You weren't afraid
of the Military Police at all.
It must be something else
Tell me.
I have an older brother.
I finally did it! It worked!
How could you?
Don't worry.
I left the Plant ships intact.
You even killed Rem!
Don't be so mad!
You're my accomplice.
Isn't that right, Vash?
Knives Millions.
Have you ever heard the name?
Did you find it?
Take me there. I'm reclaiming it.
They are all parasites.
I swear, this time
I'll kill them all.
Good morning, Jeff.
Good morning, Arthur.
Good morning, Kaite.
Good morning, everybody.
