Earth may be a hick planet, but the baths are great! This is the best! And the other thing that's the best is White rice! Time to eat! You ask me to switch bodies, and this is what you do?! Just take a bath and eat?! You sure you're not glad that Tuto is gone? Huh?! Wh-What's going on?! Pipe down! Quit making a fuss about every little thing! We're just in space! S-Sorry Wait, what do you mean, in space?! Your body's restoration has officially been approved.
Nobody told me anything about that! That's not my fault! The communication came while you were sleeping! Hey! You hit me, didn't you! La la la la la I can't hear you! What are you, a kid?! So, how soon can we get back home? In Earth time, about a day.
What about school?! I have midterms coming up, you know! What's more important: Tests or your body? My body.
That's what I thought.
Take us through the corridor to Oriotera.
Hayamiya, hurry up and wrap up the Classical Japanese Lit notes! What's your problem? You haven't finished yet either! Photos of celestial bodies, eh? So you're a romantic, Hayamiya.
Oh, you think so? Enough with the idle chitchat! The important thing right now is figuring out what's on next week's tests! It's pathetic when a guy's up against the wall like that.
What did you say?! Sorry I'm late.
Oh, hi, Nakasugi! Hmm? Senkawa's not here yet? I just got a text saying he's staying home sick.
Oh Forget Senkawa, we need to plan our cramming for the tests! Nakasugi, you take math! All right.
Say, everyone, would you like to come to my place on Sunday? Your place? You mean a cram session at your house? No, my grandfather says he wants to have a party to celebrate my recovery.
Party? So he told me to invite my friends from school.
I'm not really into that stuff Of course we'll come! I'll tell Senkawa, too.
Oh, good! Nakasugi's place, eh? I wonder what it's like? It's a totally normal house.
Lailalo, approach via course 208.
Roger.
That's your planet, Birdy? Yep.
It's blue, just like Earth Pretty much.
Navigator, the Lailalo's landing route is vermillion.
Roger.
Welcome home, Lailalo.
Whoa! I can see something! What is it?! Shut up! Just keep quiet! Birdy Cephon, we will be the ones transporting him to Econos-Quill.
How long will it take? We won't know that until we do a thorough examination.
Please get him back to normal as soon as possible.
We always do everything we can.
Will my body really go back to normal? There's nothing to worry about.
They'll restore you perfectly, down to the mole under your bellybutton.
Investigator Birdy, we'll have you undergo a thorough examination as well.
Me too?! Please get in the car.
What a pain There seem to be no abnormalities in Birdy Cephon's biomatrix.
Let's make a written record of all this, just in case.
Her neural entanglement circuits are fine, too.
No, there's a slight disturbance You're just an Altan! What is this? Is this Birdy's? He's big.
He's big, but he's definitely a bug.
He's not a bug! He's Captain Megius! Tsutomu, please bear with us a little longer.
I promise you that we will restore your body to its original condition and you'll be able to return to your normal life.
Okay, thank you very much.
He's a bug, but he speaks like a normal person! Cut it out! Excuse me, Tsutomu, but I need to speak with Birdy for a while.
Oh, go ahead.
Birdy.
Yes, Sir? I heard about Tuto.
It's a shame.
Yes.
We'll salvage as much of his functionality as we can, but you'll need a new Marker.
Excuse me, Captain.
Weegie! It's a dog! This one's a dog! We have a report from the medical department.
This is Weegie Gahhow.
- She's a dog - Welcome home, Birdy.
Thank you.
Their risk of mental fusion is within acceptable parameters, but What's "mental fusion"? It's when the parapersonality takes over the core personality.
And what's a "parapersonality"? You.
So the "core personality" is you, Birdy? Yeah.
Hmm Whoa, hold on! If I take you over, what happens to you?! She disappears from this world, Mr.
Person Inside Birdy.
This boy's name is Tsutomu.
Birdy! Aren't you scared?! You'll disappear! I'm the one who messed up and wrecked your body, so I'll just have to risk it.
But You don't need to worry.
If we're in acceptable range, there's no problem.
Birdy.
According to Econos-Quill, the restoration should be finished in about three Earth months.
Three months? So in three months, Tsutomu's body will be fixed? Good for you, Tsutomu! Birdy I'm happy to hear it will be finished sooner than we expected.
Yes, Sir! By the way, a certain someone was very excited to find out you were coming home Oh? I received word from Mr.
Skeletso that he was coming to see you.
Really, Weegie?! Yes.
Who's that? He used to be my advisor.
Your teacher? I think he's one of the mobile security police now Birdy! Instructor! Birdy! You're looking well.
It's been a long time, Instructor Skeletso! What?! What?! Yes Want to go a round? Sure! We're not done yet! I-I'll tell you whatever you want! Yeah! What's the matter, Birdy? You don't have your usual power.
Skeletso! Really? Well, right now I'm living with an Earthling consciousness.
What?! No, that's no good! Get rid of that thing! That old lizard guy is unreasonable! Hey! Listen up, guy inside! Show me your face.
Y-Yes? He's cute! Instructor Skeletso smiled! It makes him even creepier.
Skeletso, I told you to save this for later.
I know.
You're worried about the summons from the courthouse, right? Courthouse? Yeah.
So stay quiet for a while, okay? The prosecution is finished with this witness.
Wait! I told you, I only did it because Geega threatened me! The prosecution is finished with this witness.
Wait! I told you, I only did it because Geega threatened me! Wait! I told you, I only did it because Geega threatened me! I now summon investigator Birdy Cephon Altira.
I now summon investigator Birdy Cephon Altira.
I didn't do anything wrong! It was Geega and Bacillus's fault! I now summon investigator Birdy Cephon Altira.
I now summon investigator Birdy Cephon Altira.
I order the defendant to be quiet.
But Quekku Gini's just a transporter, a small fry.
Why summon Birdy? I don't know.
Apparently someone high up in the judiciary decided it.
All right, now let's have the cross-examination.
What's that? I am Pontiff Nechla Geeze Altira.
Nechla A pontiff is intervening? She exists outside the law, so I imagine So Birdy's summons as a witness was just an excuse to interrogate her? Order! The court hereby allows the pontiff's intervention.
Further, all testimony made here will be strictly confidential.
Does that meet your needs? Birdy Cephon Altira.
You have another name as well.
What are you commonly called? O-Objection! The witness's nickname has no relevance to this case.
The witness's character has great bearing on this matter.
Objection overruled.
What is your nickname? "Birdy the Berserker Killer.
" What a stirring name! I see.
It expresses your aggressive personality, then.
When you arrested the defendant, you let two major criminals escape.
Yes.
So, what was the illegal object in their possession? That's classified information in an ongoing police investigation.
Do not forget that you are being questioned by a pontiff.
It is something called the Ryunka.
And what is the Ryunka? That's You are on the stand.
Tell me everything you know.
I haven't been given detailed information on the Ryunka.
So you were investigating two fugitives without even knowing what they were carrying? One final question.
In the process of investigating the fugitives and their mysterious cargo, you killed an inhabitant of the primitive planet Earth, did you not? Don't tell me that consciousness she's carrying is? Yes.
Oh, God! You killed him, did you not? Please answer the question, Birdy Cephon Altira.
L Objection! That question has no relevance whatsoever to this case! - Further, the pontiff's opinion presupposes too much! - Switch with me, Birdy - Further, the pontiff's opinion presupposes too much! Not now! Just do it! She's showing undue contempt for the witness's rights! Objection overruled.
Excuse me! What are you trying to do?! She's talking about me, right? Who are you? I'm I mean, my name is Tsutomu Senkawa.
I'm the one who was "killed"by Birdy.
The Earthling.
Th-The court will now take a brief recess I shall allow it.
Continue.
Uh, well I mean She didn't really "kill" me.
I died, but I'm not dead.
No, wait Anyway, as you can see, I'm alive.
It's true that sharing a body with Birdy is inconvenient, and we have a lot of problems, but they say my body will be restored before long, so um Birdy didn't kill me! I never thought I'd hear a murder victim defending his killer.
Then I have a question for you as a representative of Earth's inhabitants.
Huh? Nechla! Please stand down, Birdy Cephon Altira.
But I don't really know anything about trials It's an easy question.
Do you know what the Ryunka is? No.
"Ryunka" means "invisible death" in the ancient Empire language.
Huh? Watch.
Huh? What is this? What did she do?! It's the pontiff's Bindu Attack.
He's being forced to vicariously experience the contents of her historical records.
What the hell is this?! In the Empire era, the Ryunka wiped out the entire population of the planet Bilugeva in one instant.
Our histories have recorded this event as "The Tragedy of Bilugeva.
" The Ryunka did that?! Do you understand, Earthling? That is the power of the Ryunka.
What if the Ryunka which caused the Tragedy of Bilugeva is on Earth now? What if Earth should follow the same path as Bilugeva? I don't want that! Have you all heard the Earthling's frank opinion? And it was due to Birdy Cephon's error during the initial investigation that the Ryunka was carried to Earth! But Birdy's working hard! She's giving it her all! Birdy Cephon Altira.
The Divine Council is monitoring your activities.
Don't forget that.
I'm finished.
W-Wait! What about me?! Ah, I forgot this was your trial.
As a pontiff, I will pass down an extralegal ruling.
I sentence you to 25 years with spiritual purification.
You're kidding! That's way too harsh for just smuggling! That's a pontifical ruling.
Accept it quietly.
In addition, all information we have heard here pertaining to the Ryunka is strictly confidential! I trust you all understand that? Nechla You used this trial to give me that information about the Ryunka.
Let me make one thing clear: I hate you.
I knew that already! The Sanctum Sanctorum must have deliberately used Nechla to pass on the information about the Ryunka to us.
If nothing else, it seems clear that the Ryunka is a relic of the Empire.
"Invisible death" in the ancient Empire language, was it? Yes.
Birdy, continue your investigation.
But the safety of the Earthlings is priority number one.
Yes, Sir.
Oh, and about a Buddy to replace Tuto I don't need a replacement for Tuto.
Birdy! And I have a new Buddy already.
Right here.
Huh? I promised Tuto.
Well, I guess that's fine.
We salvaged all the functionality we could from what we recovered of Tuto.
I think this will aid you in your investigation.
It won't seem unnatural for an Earthling to have something this shape.
Treasure that as if it were Tuto.
Yes, Sir.
It's the Ryunka.
If the Ryunka awakens, this world will be more fun.
Naturally, you have the right of first claim to it.
After all, you've been of great help to my work so far.
Now, let us enjoy ourselves, along with the Ryunka to our hearts' content.
It's been a long time since I last came here The people here look just like Earthlings.
Because they're Altans, like me.
"Altans"? Is something going on? It's people from the Union.
Is this your hometown? I guess you could say that.
I played here a lot as a kid.
See that shop on the corner? The patilos there were so yummy The cars exploded! Are you okay? Hang in there! Let's go! Have a good time! Everybody peace de chiiku na happy time Put your hands, ima hitotsu ni narou ze Saa narase clap hands, pang, pang! Te wo agete clap hands, pang, pang! Hito wa minna nayami wo motsu Tsukiru koto nai nara dou suru kore kara? Taito na mainichi akuseku suru koto naku Naa sou daro nee sou daro Audience wa te wo agero Mou nakanaide saa kao agete Kimi no sono egao wo misenai ka Ima wa betsu ni tsurai koto kurushii koto kanashii koto wasuresatte yuku ze C'mon baby, c'mon baby, everybody yeah yeah Let's go!

Have a good time! Everybody peace de chiiku na happy time Put your hands, ima hitotsu ni narou ze Shion Arita here again, yessiree! It looks like Birdy and Tsutomu aren't going back to Earth yet.
And now a mean-looking dog-shaped alien terrorist called Kinzel is threatening Birdy and Nechla! He's a really petty guy who holds a grudge over the past! Beat him up good, Birdy!
