My Daemon (2023) s01e04 Episode Script

[indistinct chatter]
- [Anna] An-anna.
- [Kaede] What?
Your mother is in there? Inside of Anna?
Yeah.
I'm searching for a way
to bring my mom back to life.
I'm hoping I can find the daemon
who can rewind time.
[Anna] Anna!
What do I have to do
to become a real daemon user?
- [Kaede] That's what you wanna be?
- [Kento] I don't know what else to do.
I have to find a way to make a living.
The thing is you'd have to register
with the association
and give them information
about your servant daemon.
Anna's info?
Yes. They'd find out
she's the storage daemon.
I see.
[Kento sighs]
[child panting]
[dramatic music plays]
Hm?
What's wrong?
[girl] Please help us!
Help us!
Help our big brother!
[mysterious music plays]
Looks like something's up.
All the local daemon users
have been sent a message.
- [man 1] What's going on?
- [man 2] I don't know. Let's listen.
Uh
[older man] Hello, all daemon users.
Thank you for responding
to our call for assistance.
In the ruins of the shopping center
just northwest of here,
three children were attacked
by a vicious daemon.
These two were able to get away
and make it back,
but their brother is still trapped
somewhere inside the wreckage.
I'm asking for volunteers
to help us rescue this boy.
[Kento gasps]
Anna!
Hurry, get down! They're coming over here.
There are all kinds of daemons,
aren't there?
- Na.
- [girl] Wait, no!
Please save our big brother!
He's trapped under some rubble.
We need adults to help us!
[man] Let go of my arm.
I've already got stuff to do!
It's not like we're scared of some daemon.
But we're currently
on a trailer escort mission.
What now?
Those two from yesterday.
Then the boy trapped there is
[gasps]
Well It looks like
I'm the only one who volunteered.
We'll have to send
some vigilantes as well.
We need more people than this.
You can't beat him alone!
Beat him?
[boy] We were exploring the ruins
and he came after us.
The daemon called Senju!
- [Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
- [girl screams]
[children panting]
[dramatic music plays]
[children scream]
- [Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
- [boy whimpers]
[dramatic music continues]
[boy yells]
[children scream]
[dramatic music continues]
You guys run away!
Yuta!
[music fades]
Why would you three even go there?
Because we weren't
earning enough money here!
Brother just wants to take care of us.
He works all the time
so none of us will starve.
[Anna squeaks]
- Good luck. We are counting on you.
- [Kaede] Yes.
We can take you northwest to the ruins.
Let's get to work.
Thank you. I appreciate the help.
Ms. Kaede, I wanna go too!
I don't think so. Go home, all right?
If there's a lot of debris,
you might need Anna.
She can help you move stuff.
Anna.
- A daemon! And it's got no collar.
- [Kaede] This daemon isn't dangerous.
We met yesterday.
It might be my fault that they went there,
because Anna and I ruined their plans.
If we hadn't taken back what they stole,
maybe none of this
would've happened to them.
Ms. Kaede, please let us come with you!
Uh
You run away immediately
if you sense danger. Is that clear?
Yeah.
Senju, huh? What kind of daemon is he?
Well rumors say he was originally
a servant daemon who lived in town.
And the collar
used to keep him in line broke somehow.
When Senju got away,
he chopped his owner up
and fled to the forest near Mount Fuji.
[tense music plays]
Rumor has it
his owner had badly abused him,
and that's why he attacks
any human he sees.
One thing's for sure. Senju hates humans.
[tense music continues]
[Kaede] I bet this place
used to be full of life back in the day.
[man 1] From what they said, I think
the kid is trapped on the third floor.
Somewhere up there.
Let's look around for some stairs.
[tense music continues]
[Senju] Kill, kill. kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
Kill, kill. kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill, kill!
- [man 2] Run!
- Igisu, protect them. Go!
[Igisu] Igigi!
[Kento whimpers]
- [dramatic music plays]
- [Senju] Kill, kill, kill.
He's coming!
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
[groans]
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
[dramatic music continues]
- Kento!
- [Kento yells]
Igisu!
[Igisu] Igi!
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
So awesome!
[Igisu] Igi!
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill.
- Kill, kill, kill, kill.
- [Kaede] Uh
[dramatic music plays]
[Senju] Kill. Kill, kill, kill, kill.
Kill, kill, kill, kill!
Anna!
[dramatic music continues]
Kill! Kill, kill, kill.
[Igisu] Igi, igi, igi!
[Senju screams]
It gone?
What's that glow?
This special arrow
has gunpowder on the tip.
I only have one of them though,
so I hope I don't miss this shot.
He's gone.
[exhales] We should move
while we still can.
[whimpers]
- [man 2] Hey!
- [Yuta gasps]
[gasps]
[Yuta] Hello? Is somebody out there?
[gasps]
He's here!
Kento, can you help?
- Anna?
- [Anna] Anna!
- [Kaede] Are you hurt?
- No. Where did my brother and sister go?
They're okay. They made it to town.
Come on, we gotta go.
[sniffs]
[Anna] Anna!
- Anna.
- [Kento] What's wrong?
- [Anna whimpers]
- [Kento gasps]
- Anna.
- [Kento] This is
What did you find?
The daemons are
Oh, that? We did that earlier.
Huh?
Exterminating daemons gets you good money.
Let's bring these dead ones to the mayor.
He'll be glad we got rid of them
and give us money for it!
[somber music plays]
- [boy] Look at these.
- Huh?
The mother's gonna put up a fight.
[daemons whimper]
[daemon hisses]
Now we can kill them all at once. [laughs]
[Senju] Kill, kill.
[Kento] Oh, I get it.
They were exterminated.
Daemons. They usually are.
- Looks like it's safe for us to get out.
- Yes.
Thanks a lot, Kento.
We were able to rescue the boy quickly
because of your daemon.
[Kento] I didn't do anything.
You still upset about what happened?
Just thinking.
I was lucky to have found Anna when I did,
otherwise she might've been exterminated.
That's just how things are
between humans and daemons, you know?
We use them. I only keep Igisu around
because he can be useful to me.
Daemons with no purpose
need to be killed off
or the human habitation zone
will continue to shrink down.
[man 2 groans]
Maimoto!
[Maimoto groans]
[tense music plays]
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill. [hisses]
Kill, kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill.
[Yuta screams]
[Kaede] Igisu!
[dramatic music plays]
[Kaede] I need to land a perfect shot.
- I have an idea!
- Huh?
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
[dramatic music continues]
- [Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
- [man 1 grunts]
[grunts] Kaede, do it!
[dramatic music continues]
Anna!
[Anna] Anna!
[Senju] Kill.
Now shoot!
Come on!
[dramatic music continues]
[gasps]
[gulps]
[dramatic music plays]
[Senju] Kill.
[beeping]
[Senju screams]
[Maimoto strains]
[exhales]
[man 1 groans]
- [Kento sighs]
- Anna.
[Senju grunts]
[Senju grunts]
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill.
[gasps] No way!
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
He keeps growing more arms
and getting stronger with every hit!
The owner that he killed
must've cut off his arms on purpose.
You've suffered a lot.
Every arm you have is proof of that.
That's why That's why
you hate humans, isn't it?
[dramatic music plays]
[all yell]
- Igisu, help us!
- [Igisu] Igi!
[screaming]
[all groan]
Ms. Kaede, are you okay?
Kento, watch out!
[Senju growls] Kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
[Kento yelps]
[Senju] Kill!
[dramatic music continues]
[Anna] Anna!
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
Anna, look out!
[Anna] Anna!
[Senju] Ahhhh, kill!
[Anna squeals]
Anna!
[Anna whimpers]
[Anna groans]
[tense music plays]
[Senju growls]
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill.
[Kento grunts]
[Senju] Kill?
Are you okay? Anna!
Igisu, go now!
[Igisu] Igi!
Igiiii!
Devour that thing!
- [Igisu growls]
- [Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.
[Senju] Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill.
- Kill, kill, kill!
- [Igisu grunts]
[melancholy music plays]
[Anna sighs]
[melancholy music continues]
[music fades]
- [girl] Yuta!
- [boy] Yuta!
[children laugh]
I'm so glad!
- [Anna] Anna!
- [men] Cheers!
[laughter]
- [Maimoto chokes]
- [Kento chuckles]
[laughter]
- [Yuta] We all survived.
- [Maimoto] Thought I was gonna die.
Thank you. I'm very grateful to you.
No. Kento deserves your thanks.
During the fight,
he protected his daemon from harm,
and that action confused Senju,
so Igisu and I
were able to catch him off guard.
When daemons get themselves into danger,
humans don't usually risk their own lives
to protect them.
- [Maimoto] Cheers!
- [man 1] Cheers!
[older man] He is
a special child, isn't he?
Aw, you really worked hard, didn't you?
I think you can have a treat as a reward!
What do you want? Chikuwa?
- Chikuwa, yeah? [giggles]
- [Anna squeaks]
Anna, that tickles! [laughs]
[melancholy music plays]
[snores]
[melancholy music continues]
Anna [sighs]
I wrote a special song just for you.
The title is "I Love Anna".
[Kaede] Stop right there.
Anna.
- [Anna whimpers]
- What were you doing?
We came to get that daemon.
Anna?
Isn't she the storage daemon?
If we catch her, we get 100 million yen!
You three have no shame.
Hey, Kento. It's time to leave town.
Thank you, Ms. Kaede.
You saved me and Anna from those kids.
It was nothing.
You interest me, Kento.
Can humans and daemons exist together?
I've been searching for the answer to that
all my life.
Hm. You're kinda strange,
aren't you, Ms. Kaede?
I'm quite sure the same thing
could be said of you.
Damn! We could've been billionaires!
Let's go capture that thing.
I don't think we should.
How about this?
Let's go back to the ruins instead.
The dangerous daemon is gone,
so it should be safe now.
[girl yawns]
[Yuta] I'll carry you, Kanata.
Thank you, Yuta.
I'm really sleepy.
[tense music plays]
[Senju] Kill.
Kill.
