- [Anna] Anna.
- [Kento giggles]
- [Anna] Anna!
- [Kento] All right, Anna.
Whoever falls off the rail first loses.
Watch out for the scary ghosts! [laughs]
- Anna! [laughs]
- [Anna] Anna.
It's strange. Anna doesn't have a collar
and yet she doesn't run away.
[Kento laughs]
- It's 'cause we're best friends.
- Anna!
You know what?
I don't think Igisu needs a collar either.
- Do you want your collar taken off?
- Huh? W-Wait!
[Igisu] Igi. Igi.
[Igi exclaims]
- Do you like yours?
- [Igisu] Igi.
Well, if you like it, that's fine.
[sighs with relief]
[Igisu] Igi.
Gi! Igi!
What's flying up there?
[Kaede] Smoke trails?

[whimpering]
Oh no. Momoka!
Are you okay?
[groans]
It's my legs. [strains]
[gasps]
[Momoka cries]
It's okay.
[Momoka continues crying]
[Kaede] Anyone in there?
Yes! We need help!
[Kaede strains]
Who's there?
[gasps] A daemon!
We need some help.
My daughter is stuck in here.
[Kaede strains]
[Kaede] What happened?
What caused the crash?
[shudders] We ran
into some balloon-type daemons,
but the pilot noticed them too late.
He flew right into them.
[Kaede strains]
Hey, Kento. Can Anna get this?
- I'm not sure. Anna, can you help?
- [Anna] Anna.
[girl] Wha Huh?
She did it!

[daemon growls]
[dramatic music crescendos]
Hold on. That spider daemon's a mutant.
[man] I've heard of this one.
O. That's what people around here call it.
[O] Ohhhhhh.
[tense music plays]
[O growls]
[Kaede grunts]
[O growls softly]
[man shudders]

- No, Dad!
[man screams]
[tense music plays]
- [Momoka] Dad!
- [Kento] It's okay!
Igisu caught him in time.
[Momoka yelps]
[O] Oooohhhh!
[O growls softly]

[tense music crescendos]
[distant footsteps thud]
[Momoka cries]
[Anna] Anna.
[continues crying]
[Kento] Here, you can have this.
It's an unagi pie.
I got this
in a town we stopped in the other day.
Nice to meet you. I'm Kento. And you are?
I'm Momoka Amamiya. I don't want anything!
Get that ugly daemon
away from me. It's gross!
[Anna squeals]
[Kento] Why would you
say something like that?
Daemons are my enemy. I hate them all!
Oh, if you say so.
But this one's huge!
I've never seen a daemon this big.
Dad told me about it.
O is a special daemon.
It grew up eating other daemons,
and that's why it's so big now.
Spider daemons have a habit
of keeping the things they like.
O destroyed Nagoya City.
But it loved the castle so much
that it made it part of its own body.
[distant footsteps thud]
[tense music plays]
[music fades]
[groaning]
[Momoka's dad] This town is so busy.
I heard these people
used to live in Nagoya.
They fled here when it was destroyed.
[Kaede] O took his daughter.
And he also took my friend.
O did?
[Kaede] We want to recruit members
for a temporary party.
Help us. I can pay whatever they want!
[Momoka's dad sighs]
[groans]
You should really eat something,
or you'll run out of steam.
[Igisu mumbles]
S TIER - DANGEROUS REQUES
URGENT MISSION
RESCUE 2 PEOPLE
[Kaede] That's a lot of reward money.
Do you mind if I ask you what you do?
I'm a doctor.
I was called to perform emergency surgery
in Toyota City.
Of course, I didn't expect this to happen.
[tense music plays]
[O] Oooooohhhh!
[Momoka gasps]
[O] Ooohhhh.
Oooohhhh.
[tense music continues]
[O] Oooohhhh.
Oooohhhh.
Ooohhh.
Oooohhhh.
[Kento] What a huge spiderweb!
I think it's displaying its collection.
[Anna] Na-na.
- [shrieks] No, get it away!
- [Anna yelps]
Anna!
What's wrong with you?
It doesn't have a collar. That's bad!
- No, it's okay. Anna is a good daemon.
- [Anna] Na-na.
Well, I hate every single daemon.
- I'll get rid of all of them someday!
- [gasps]
Why would you ever say something so awful?
It's 'cause
Daemons. They are what killed my mother!
Huh?
[sighs]
[sighs]
[Kaede] Can't sleep either?
Yeah.
[Kaede] I received a message
from the Daemon User Association.
A few people applied for the mission
after seeing your reward.
[Momoka's dad] Thank you
for all of your help.
Don't worry. I would have
gone to save Kento anyway.
It's my fault he got involved.
That boy. The mark on his face.
He must have been polluted
by a daemonium particle.
What?
I can tell.
My late wife had a similar discoloration.
[Momoka's dad] Daemonium particles
spread around the world,
and on rare occasions,
they get trapped inside a human body.
When that happens, the surrounding tissues
become polluted and discolored.
In my wife's case, the particle
had coalesced inside her heart.
Eventually, the only solution for her
was an organ transplant.
But the particle started to hatch.
[doctors groan]
[shudders]
[somber music plays]
[Momoka cries]
So Kento will also
He must have a daemonium particle
inside his head.
If it hatches, I fear he won't survive.
[Kaede] Oh no.
[Momoka] Hey. I think you need to wake up!
[Anna] Anna?
- [rumbling]
- [Momoka yelps]
[Kento gasps]
[tense music plays]
[Kento] It looks like a fantasy world.
[Momoka] It's going somewhere.
What are we going to do now?
[Anna] Anna! Na-na.
[Kento] First, we should
cross the spiderwebs,
and get to the skyscraper.
Then make our way to the ground
using the stairs inside.
[Anna] Anna.
Yeah, great idea!
Hold on. Do you understand
what it says to you?
[Anna] Anna.
Oh, well, I guess I do.
You are so weird.
[gasps] We're so high up!
Hey, can I ask you about your mom?
- What about her?
- You said she was killed by a daemon?
Yeah. And now all daemons are my enemy!
[Kento] I lost my mom too.
She died.
[gasps]
And?
I'm traveling because
I'm going to bring her back.
Huh?
[Momoka] A dead person can't
come back to life. That's impossible!
It's not.
Otherwise, everything is just bullshit.
[Momoka exhales]
[tense music plays]
This is Mr. Reiji Amamiya,
who put in the request.
Thank you for helping us.
Heh. I happened to have some free time.
The reward's too tempting.
I wanna help. We'll save your daughter.
This trio here, they usually work together
when they accept missions.
Well, let's all head out then.
[man] Will you be driving us?
I want to help you in any way I can.
[man] All right you're in charge.
[engine revs]
[Kento grunts]
[Momoka strains]
[Momoka strains]
[Momoka whimpers]
[Momoka whimpers]
[Momoka whimpers]
- [Kento] Whoa!
- [Momoka whimpers]
- I can't keep going.
- [Kento] Agh!
[Anna] Anna!
- Let's rest over by that couch.
- [Momoka exhales]
[loud rumbling]
Ugh, gross!
Can't you fix this? It's all sticky.
Maybe we can use
her storage ability. Anna?
[Anna] Anna!
Oh, it looks so good!
Can you do it here too?
Mm. Anna!
- And this one?
- [Anna] Anna!
Anna!
[Momoka] This one here too.
[Anna] Anna. Anna!
[Kento] Whoa.
[Momoka laughs]
[sighs contentedly] Huh?
[Momoka whimpers]
Hold on. Are we sinking down?
- Oh no. We're gonna fall!
- [Momoka whimpers]
[O] Ooohhhh.
I really hope your daughter
doesn't lay one finger on O's collection.
What happens if she does?
Spider daemons are possessive.
They get angry
when someone messes with their things.
I mean really angry.
[O groans]
[O] Ooooohhhhhhh. Oooohhh.
Oooohhhhh.
There's no way this is my fault, right?
[O] Oooohhhh.
Oohhh.
[O growls softly]
[crashing]
[O] Ooohh!
[O roars]
There's no way this is my fault!
[Anna] Anna!
[Momoka whimpers]
- [Kento] Whoa!
- [Momoka screams]
[Momoka screams]
Jump now!
[Momoka screams]
We gotta run.
I hate spiders.
And it has such a stupid face!
[O growls]
- [O growls]
- [Kento] Oh no, it heard you!
[O] Oooohhhh.
[tense music plays]
[O roars]
That daemon
- Hiruta, you go first?
- Yup.
[Momoka panting]
[O roars]
[Momoka whimpers]
[Momoka and Kento yell]

[Kento grunts]
[Momoka whimpers]
[O] Oooooohhhhhh.

[Kento grunts]
I'm stuck!
- [O] Oooohhhh.

[tense music plays]
[O] Oohh!
- Oohh!
- Another one! Do it!
Rock.
[dramatic music plays]
[daemon] Chuk, chuk,
chuk, chuk, chuk, chuk, chuk.
[Kento and Momoka strain]
[daemon] Chuk.
- What is that thing?
- [Anna] Anna!
[Kaede] Kento. Momoka. Are you okay?
[Kento] Ms. Kaede?
[Kaede] We're gonna draw O's attention.
So get out of there!
[dramatic music continues]
[O roars]
