Platinum End (2021) s01e04 Episode Script

1
What will happen?
Sakura TV Station will be running
a live broadcast all the way.
Here he is.
Here he is!
He arrives on time as promised!
It's Metropoliman!
Look. Hey!
He's flying!
There are two of them now!
There There are two new ones!
Those figures are
Metroblue and Metroyellow!
H-How could it be?
Not just Metropoliman,
but Metroblue and Metroyellow have also
arrived at the stadium!
Kakehashi.
Wings and Red Arrow.
Both of them have
first-rank or higher angels.
They are planning to shoot him.
Are they going to fight?
Why Why doesn't he spread his wings?
Kakehashi.
The Red Arrow can't strike him?!
Darn.
He's already been shot with Red Arrow.
It must be Metropoliman who shot him.
I see.
If a person is manipulated by Red Arrow
they will not get hit by another arrow
until 33 days later.
Indeed, that's not Metropoliman.
That's right. He's just a stand-in.
Speaking of which, it could be said
that he was falling from the sky
instead of soaring into the sky
when he appeared.
Does that mean he dropped him down?
But we can't be sure that the guy
isn't a god candidate himself.
Stay vigilant.
I know.
What are you talking about?
I'm Metropoliman!
You're just an impostor
who claims to be him!
Am I right?
This guy is his bait!
The real Metropoliman,
reveal yourself now!
What? What's going on?
There are three heroes now.
Are they enemies or partners?
So, will the negotiation begin next?
This is
So that's not Metropoliman himself?
It seems like it, but who knows?
Is it true that Metroblue and Metroyellow
are part of the 11 enemies?
What will happen next?
We'll witness it till the end with you.
I was intending to shoot him with
Red Arrow if such an opportunity arises.
Tabuchi
Don't call me by my name!
You won't have any regrets
if we fall to our deaths here?
I won't.
I do not wish to live in a world
where that loathsome swine is God.
No, that's not right.
If that guy became God,
I believed we'd have long been dead.
Right.
Reveal yourself now!
We have fallen into your trap!
Nothing can be done
if you don't reveal yourself!
To fight or negotiate, it's your call!
Well said, Mr. Hatakeyama.
We can do this.
Yes. We must turn our lives around.
If I fail, I will end my own life.
That's what I'd intended to do.
You're from the same cram school.
I've hit rock bottom even if I am able
to enroll in a different university.
I'm beyond hope.
I understand.
I'm beyond hope when I've already
flunked on the first try.
But you have only flunked once.
I have already flunked three times.
I just want to die.
Die
I want to die.
I
have something that can induce death
without feeling any pain.
Darn. It's not fun at all.
I intended to have a lot of fun
before committing suicide.
How could you have fun when you know
you are going to die soon?
-Angels?
-Angels?
The hope in living on? God?
No way!
Awesome!
We are incredible!
We can do it!
We know the law and the politics
a hundredfold better than other fools!
Great!
Tabuchi, if I become God,
I will make you happy.
If I become God, I will also make you
We can do it.
We can become God.
I know what you are planning to do.
You can't make the arrow fly
and shoot at an invisible speed.
In other words, you have to reveal
yourself in order to shoot the arrow.
To evade the danger,
you will use that guy as bait.
You'll wait for a god candidate to appear
before stepping out from behind
and shoot White Arrow
at your opponent, right?
This way, you can finish off one of them.
But there is a two-second interval
before you can release the second arrow.
What if two of them appeared
at the same time?
You can't kill two people simultaneously!
What do they mean by the arrows
and the god candidates?
No idea.
Besides, the arrow's
shooting range is 31,6m.
It means if you want to shoot
at someone who's on the pitcher's mound,
it'll be possible
only if you're inside the field.
This is why you chose this place.
However, this is also beneficial to us.
We don't need to worry about being shot
from the spectator stand!
-What? Are they really going to fight?
-Gosh!
I never thought they would know this much.
Uh-huh.
I didn't even know about the 31,6m range.
We only know some approximate details.
Incredible!
Great! Hit him!
What is your plan, Metropoliman?
Hi, everyone.
I am Metropoliman.
What's going on?
Metropoliman just appeared on the screen!
Well
I am the real Metropoliman.
I thought I should first declare that
It was a different actor who appeared
on TV the day before yesterday.
Both of you are outstanding.
You've pretty much got it right.
Screw you!
Firstly, the one standing
on the pitcher's mound
is a human shot by my Red Arrow.
He can neither release arrows nor fly.
So don't worry about him.
I'll let you in on that.
Didn't you say that you will neither
run nor hide?
You've made the right choice
by choosing this spacious place.
There's one thing though
Red Arrowand White Arrow.
Both of these are different.
As long as both parties are ready,
it only takes these arrows about
0,3 seconds to reach their targets.
It doesn't even need two seconds.
What a shame
But they won't appear behind you.
You two have been facing
back to back due to fear.
Disappearing and reappearing,
and ended up chasing after each other?
I'm not interested in doing something
that stupid and shameless.
Goodbye.
He has disappeared.
-Red? White?
-What will happen next?
It seems that he's not going to show up.
In that case, it's useless to stay here.
If you are afraid of us,
then keep running away!
We will get information about you
out of this guy!
That's rather careless of you
to leave behind clues!
Metropoliman!
Come on, Metroyellow!
Hold on!
A A kid?
How could it be?
A girl is floating in the air!
Hold on.
An angel.
Take me with you.
I'm scared of Metropoliman.
Please let me join you two.
I only have wings
so I might not be of any help,
but I beg you.
What should we do?
That kid might be manipulated too.
Could this be part of
Metropoliman's strategy too?
I have been bullied at school all along.
Only after I received the wings
did I feel life was a little interesting.
I don't want to die.
Bullied?
I have been an outcast
since I lost my family.
Saki?
This must be magic.
There are no wires.
What's going on?
All right.
If you let us shoot you with Red Arrow,
we will take you with us.
Please shoot me then.
Raise your hands and come closer then.
Okay.
Metropoliman!
That's too slow.
What's wrong with you two?
How could you hesitate?
Mr. Metropoliman.
If there is a god candidate around,
you must shoot at once.
Darn!
You're too slow, you fools.
Now, it's two vs two.
Well, you two are so foolish.
What a disappointment.
I shouldn't have looked forward to it.
I've had enough. Get off now.
Or else, I'll destroy you two.
What?
He appears and disappears
I don't get what they are doing at all.
Two vs two?
What should we do?
It might be only for 33 days,
but the girl will become his slave
Fortunately, the girl
has wings as her tool.
That's right.
Isn't this a good opportunity?
We can continue to fight.
Is there anyone willing to join us?
I know more of you are here too,
god candidates!
There must be someone
who also does not wish to live in a world
with that scum as God, right?
Fight him with us!
Let us take down Metropoliman together!
But it's only limited to those who
are willing to take our Red Arrow shot.
Come forward
if you want to become an ally.
What?
-What is he talking about?
-I have no idea.
Metroblue suddenly started
a call for allies.
Will other allies reveal themselves?
None of you are here?
This is an opportunity to take him down!
I understand that they wish to have
as many allies as possible.
To come forward
under such circumstances
And we'd have to take their
Red Arrow shot as a condition.
We will join you!
Metrogreen and Metropink!
Metrogreen and Metropink
have appeared in the outfield!
We are indeed not the only ones
who want to take down Metropoliman!
They are wearing the same
battle armor as ours.
ANGELS CAN'T DIRECTLY INFLUENCE
GOD CANDIDATES WITH THEIR ARROWS AND WINGS
Unprecedented events
are taking place at Jinbo Stadium.
Metropoliman, who wanted to talk it out
with the 11 candidates
has now disappeared with the flying girl.
The only ones that have remained
on the scene are Metroblue,
Metroyellow,
and the imposter Metropoliman.
And Metrogreen and Metropink
that appeared from the spectator stand!
Those two are god candidates?
If you want to join us,
you must take the Red Arrow shot!
You're ok with that?
I understand!
We only have arrows. We don't have wings.
Are you ok with it?
Of course!
They have no wings.
All right. Let's shoot them.
I'll get closer to the spectators.
Cover me.
Metroblue and Metroyellow
started to make their move.
Are they going to unite with
Metrogreen and Metropink?
Great. The arrows hit them.
They aren't manipulated.
They only have the arrows?
Only the second-ranks
are willing to be allies?
The weaker they are,
the more they want to become our allies.
There is an unexpected development
in the intended negotiation agenda.
Without knowing whether they are friends
or enemies,
the 5-Metro Super Civilized
has gathered together!
So, there are four of us with Red Arrows.
In terms of numbers,
we have a better advantage.
-Yes!
-Yes!
Kakehashi.
If Saki and I join them,
there'll be a total of six.
It'll be half the total god candidates.
Just in case. Please take out your arrows.
Arrows?
Metroyellow, it's useless.
Everybody, please look over here!
Mr. Metropoliman would like
to make a major statement.
What?
I, Metropoliman
Actually, I'm not Metropoliman.
Geez
What a bunch of fools.
I'm over here!
Mr. Hatakeyama!
I've told you.
You're too slow
Hey. Is he dead?
That's impossible.
This isn't looking good
Great job!
Metropon!
He has been killed.
It's strange.
I recall that I liked Metroblue
very much just now.
He is now dead.
But I don't feel sad at all.
Mr. Metropoliman, may I ask a question?
Go on.
I thought the one on the screen
was the real you.
What exactly is going on?
He is a human manipulated by my Red Arrow.
What does that mean?
We switched our positions
when you ran toward the spectator stand
to shoot your arrow.
Everyone had been focusing on you.
So it was easy peasy.
Besides, you and Metroblue
are very afraid of Red Arrow.
Right
Out of fear, you requested
the girl to put her hands up.
Both Metrogreen and Metropink
also raised their hands.
The girl has wings. So you knew
she's a god candidate.
But you shouldn't have left out the step
of verifying their arrows.
In reality, both Metrogreen and Metropink
are just ordinary humans.
They are just pawns I've prepared.
Huh?
-I'm at your service!
-I'm at your service!
How did ordinary humans come forward?
Were you manipulating them?
But my arrow hit them.
Humans can be manipulated
even without Red Arrows.
Is there really such a way?
Would you like me to teach you?
Yes. Please.
Well
Just use money.
They are just acting as heroes
on a part-time basis.
But I paid them handsomely.
Hey, the angel over there!
Are you trying to flee the scene?
You gave him wings and Red Arrow.
I should have the right
to take them from him.
Hand them over to me first.
Thanks.
She handed him the wings and Red Arrow.
All right.
Well, you all may leave now.
Got it!
How could it be?
So far, everything has gone
according to Metropoliman's plan.
He lured three god candidates
out to the open.
One of them was killed by his White Arrow.
The other two were shot by his Red Arrows.
How naive I was
to have thought a chance will rise
to shoot Red Arrow at Metropoliman.
He's too strong
We'll end up dead if we move now
We can only focus on not getting caught.
Kakehashi, look.
Let's begin the second show now!
What is this?
Handcuffs?
Are they going to perform an escape show?
What are they doing?
The others have already left.
The second show is about to begin.
It might be interesting!
Let's start with Metroyellow.
Despite being shot by my Red Arrows,
it seems that you two will not
obey me at all times.
That's not true.
I will listen to every word you say.
Yes!
What if I asked you two to die?
Die?
Unless you two have done something to me
that requires your death as redemption
You haven't, right?
That's right.
So, we just have to do this.
That's dangerous!
-No Please don't point it at me!
-Look, you want to fly away.
There is a limit to Red Arrow.
Wait a second. You're kidding, right?
Well
How could I be kidding you?
-It hurts!
-No!
-H Help!
-Stop it!
No No!
Mr. Metropoliman!
-He's dead?
-Really?
-No way
-Isn't this a show?
Isn't Metropoliman a hero of justice?
I wonder if Mirai will be all right.
What do you mean?
The girl will be the next.
I hope he doesn't run in and stop it.
Right.
No! I don't want to!
No! Help!
The girl will be the next.
-Metroyellow has fallen too.
-This doesn't look good.
What should I do?
I'll stand by Red Arrow first
and fly to her at an invisible speed.
No.
If I run away
before the arrow is released,
I will be revealing my status
as a god candidate.
If something goes wrong, I will be killed.
I must not die.
I must not die.
But if this goes on
Please stop it!
What?
What do you mean by that?
You did not put forward a proposal.
Why should I stop it then?
Second-rank angels
are such a bunch of fools.
Interesting
Why don't you beg for mercy too?
All right! Hurry up!
Some Someone.
Please save her.
I beg you. Please save her.
Please save her! Come on!
-No! Help me!
-Someone! Please save her!
Very good. I knew you could do that!
-I beg you! Please save her!
-No! Help me!
-Stop it! I don't want to die now!
-That's right. Shout louder!
Keep on begging for help!
You cowardly god candidates
who will just sit by
and watch a child die?
Stop
Saki
No. Stop
Help!
I beg you! Anyone, please
Stop him, please!
