Talentless Nana (2020) s01e06 Episode Script

Necromancer

1
Looks like she hasn't pieced
together what this photo means yet.
If she tries to hide the photo
I'll kill her now.
That would show distrust.
That she fears me and sees me as an enemy.
But if she holds out the photo
Nana- shan , what is this?
I'll kill her later.
"Talentless Nana"
I found it in Tsunekichi's clothes.
What does it mean?
Episode 6: 'Necromancer'
It means, Tsunekichi couldn't
always predict the future.
B-But I think I remember him
showing us photos that did come true.
His powers were probably stronger back then.
But ever since he came to this island,
he stopped working so hard.
You're right! He ditched class a lot.
I heard his thoughts.
He wasn't entirely honest
He could turn his dreams into photos,
not see into the future.
But he had a hard time admitting that.
He always boasted about how he was genuine
and everyone else was a "party magician."
S-So, was that photo also?
Yes. Just a dream.
I think he dreamed this,
because he didn't like that
Nakajima and I were so close.
So he was jealous!
So his jealousy made him
have such a morbid dream?
I'll just dispose of this photo.
Let this photo be our little secret, okay?
Our little
Of course!
By the way, what were you trying to do?
Well, actually, I've never succeeded,
but I was trying to bring him back to life.
Heh?
It was an unnatural death
Why didn't you call the police?
Look, kid, there aren't
any police on this island.
But if we committed crimes, who'd lock us up?
If you Talenteds really did commit crimes,
no one would lock you up.
Though the military would
intervene in a real emergency.
Hey, Michiru.
You shouldn't use your powers recklessly.
Doesn't it shorten your lifespan?
I don't care.
Though at first it did scare me
since I don't know exactly
how much I'm shaving off my life.
How should I put it Oh!
It's like, you know how eating
junk food shortens your lifespan?
I'm like those people who eat junk food.
I know it's bad for me, but I do it anyway.
But if you tried to resurrect someone,
if that made you die, I would be so sad!
Thank you for that.
The Committee did say that the Talented
have the ability to evolve their own powers.
That checks out.
It also means the data from when
they joined the island is unreliable.
Listen up, guys!
Don't you see the plot holes?
Tsunekichi wasn't sick.
According to Hiiragi,
the enemies of humanity killed him.
For real?
Kyoya, that's enough!
Stop scaring everyone for a laugh!
Before the cremation,
I'd like to perform an autopsy.
Autopsy? You know how?
I was going to wait until the police came
Hey. Can we talk?
Why can't you accept he was sick?
He assaulted you, then he
just randomly had a heart attack?
Well, his heart rate was up.
It does happen.
You seem angry. Are you okay?
Well
It was pretty scary having that building
explode when I was feeding the cat.
Are you saying that wasn't an accident either?
You can read my mind, can't you?
Yes.
I do have the ability to
hear a person's inner-voice.
When I saw it with my own eyes, I was surprised.
But I knew you were immortal
far before when the shed exploded.
I found out that night, when we were talking
about Nakajiima's watch by the cliffs.
What are you trying to say?
Uh, well I'm not sure exactly.
Um, I don't want to go there, but
it's possible there's a serial killer.
But why would that person try to kill you?
You can't be killed.
She's right. It is strange.
Hiiragi can read minds.
So why would she try to
kill me before Tsunekichi?
I could understand me being the final target.
But who would be stupid
enough to botch my murder,
and have that cloud of
suspicion hanging over her?
"Only the Talented are allowed here."
I'll use that premise to my advantage.
Discovering Tsunekichi was
poisoned wouldn't help him much,
but I want to avoid giving him any leads.
Regardless, it's worth
learning the cause of death.
Uh, but!
Uh, could you maybe not fight?
This's technically a funeral
Wait Hey! Can somebody please stop Kyoya?
Hey, loser! Listen to your leader, why don't ya?
Autopsies are so barbaric.
It's not like the deceased could speak to us.
He's right! Tsunekichi was one of us!
Please, just let him rest in peace!
No need for pesky autopsies.
We can just ask the deceased directly.
What the bloody hell?!
It's Shinji's necromancy!
Out of the frying pan, into the fire.
I don't really know why, but you want
to learn how Tsunekichi died, right?
Can you find out?
If the body remembers, then yes.
Don't worry.
Just because he's a zombie, that doesn't
mean he'll rot to pieces or eat you.
I always thought his presence was rather thin.
Eeek! So that's necromancy?
That magic that controls the dead?
Now, take it easy, guys.
Uh, you all seem pretty freaked out,
but Shinji isn't a bad guy, FYI.
Stay out of this, Yuka.
I didn't ask you to come out.
Ah! Listen, you! I'm just trying
to cover your creepy necro-butt
So, what's the plan?
I can control dead bodies at will.
I can see their surroundings through their eyes,
and I can also draw out their
memories and use their talents.
Wait! What about the soul?
The soul? You mean his soul?
I don't know anything about souls.
Then it's time for amateur theater hour.
Please, don't go through with it!
I just heard a whisper from Tsunekichi's soul.
He's suffering!
Holy crap, dude.
Kyoya, please!
After insisting on an autopsy, I'd feel
pretty silly asking you to make him a zombie.
Come on, Shinji, just drop it.
So you want me to stop?
I was fine either way.
A-Again, just FYI, Shinji isn't a bad guy.
Uh, can I bring in the Buddhist priest now?
Say, are you free after class?
Look, honey,
don't you have a girlfriend?
No need for violence, now
Enemy of Women!
Hey, Yuka.
Oh, hey, Nana. What's up?
Do you know where Shinji is?
Shinji?
Yes. Just thinking,
I don't see him in class much.
Oh Maybe he's in bed?
He usually ditches school.
Oh, I see. So his attendance
at the funeral was a special case.
Why d'you ask?
As your leader, I just want
to get to know everyone.
Oh, right! The enemies of
humanity are among us, after all!
Thanks. It's kind of you to
look out for Shinji like that.
He's pretty dark, you know?
Calls himself "Necromancer"
like it's a good thing.
He has no friends.
But he actually is a necromancer.
I was startled when I saw him moving Tsunekichi.
Oh, he just wanted to
show off in front of everyone.
He's always been such a child. Jeez.
When I kill Shinji, she'll be the most upset.
So they're a couple? Even better.
I'll kill them together.
Date night in the woods? Bold choice.
I was in bed when I heard their voices,
so I came to check on them.
I'm also on patrol.
You and Tsunekichi were both
attacked at night when you were alone.
You still have the wrong
idea about me, don't you?
Anyway, if I were the killer,
I'd target Shinji next.
I'd hate letting the dead incriminate me.
Is somebody there?
Sorry to disturb you two.
Were you spying?
If this were a slasher flick, you'd be dead.
The kids making out are always the first to go.
Uh, well
She's just an old friend who
likes to think there's more to us.
I only have love for the dead.
Jeez, do you always have to be so morbid?
Forget what you saw tonight.
Otherwise, prepare yourselves for a
less-than-peaceful rest in your coffins.
Then again, you're immortal, right?
I can harness the abilities
of the dead I control.
I'm curious to see what
would happen in your case.
I'd have to die first, though.
Yuka.
See you later.
So you two really are a couple.
Yeah, I'm kinda stuck with him.
See, we grew up in the same neighborhood.
He lived next door and was in my class.
His hand looks injured.
Oh! He has a burn scar there.
He's hiding it.
I think it was five years ago?
There was a fire this one time
we were at the movies together.
Shinji has his intense
moments, believe it or not,
and he helped the scared patrons escape.
But he was too busy
being a hero to save himself.
So you saved him.
Yeah! It was, like, a total adrenaline rush!
I could see the smoke rising from outside.
But when I thought of Shinji, stuck inside,
I punched the emergency exit
door open with my fist.
That's when I discovered I have powers.
Until then, people did call
me "She-Hulk," though.
So, I picked up Shinji, all passed out
from the smoke, and carried him out.
He really is like a danger-prone kid brother.
Necromancers usually play the villain,
but he's actually good?
Yeah. He's introverted,
so he rarely comes to class.
But I just want everyone to know
that people like him are valid, too.
We have training next period.
I don't really like exercising.
I think I'll go have a nap in the infirmary.
Are you okay?
Actually, no. I was up
late on patrol last night.
I didn't get much sleep.
Understood. I'll tell teacher for you.
I can slip out this window and run to
the boys' dorm without anyone noticing.
With Kyoya on patrol at night,
now's my only chance.
Hey.

Good. Stay asleep.
Your girlfriend will join you soon enough.
I have to hurry.
Kyoya still might be tailing me.
Infirmary
Um, Koya? I noticed that you
seem to really keep tabs on Nana.
Well, she's my friend.
Hiiragi, can we come in?
Sorry! Can you come with me for a bit?
Get Yuka, too!
I was in bed when I heard
someone crying for help.
This is as good as confessing I was on
my way to the boys' dorm, but I can't avoid it.
Yuka, could you use your
superhuman strength to lift the grate?
Uhh
Sorry! I can't use it right now.
Does her power have limitations?
Stay calm.
The cat doesn't look hurt.
Can you go to my room and get a can of cat food?
She looks friendly. She'll probably
jump out when she smells it.
What a troublesome kitty you are.
Say, "Thank you, Nana- shan ."
Kyoya, thanks for the help.
So you can hear cats' inner-voices, too.
It comes and goes, unfortunately.
Sorry I couldn't step up when you needed me.
I'm allergic to animals
When I sneeze, I can't use my powers.
What a cute weakness.
She's making even less sense now.
Could a cat-rescuer like her
really be a cold-blooded killer?
Yuka Sasaki, you don't seem like a bad person.
But a mission is a mission.
Go and die in your sleep, just like Shinji.
Shinji saw everything for me.
I I was too sloppy.
I sensed something was off
Why didn't I trust my gut?
I bought her story because
she has super-strength.
But emergency exits always open outwards.
This is so people inside can easily run outside.
How could she smash it open
from outside? It doesn't add up.
And when she couldn't save
the cat, it wasn't allergies.
It's because the one restraining me
right now is the true hulk of this duo.
Which means the necromancer is not Shinji.
Shinji won't die. Not now. Not ever.
I will never let him die.
It was you!
No mistaking it. Shinji is dead.
I didn't sense another presence
when I sneaked into her room.
That's also why his skin is cold as ice.
Let's all be quiet.
It's night, after all.
Sorry, Nana.
Did that hurt?
See, Shinji has always had a hot temper.
He sees himself as a smart person.
And he is smart, but also proud to a fault.
He snapped when he scored 98 on a test.
He was like, "Why not 100?!" as he ripped up the
test and threw the pieces around the classroom.
Adorable, right?
But he's always been gentle with me.
We had so much fun that day.
We went out that evening, ate crepes
from a stall at the farmer's market,
and even though Shinji gets squeamish,
he let me hold his hand.
That movie was great, too.
See, that theater was newly-built.
I bought some tea at concessions.
Oh, and Shinji has a child's palate,
so he had melon soda.
Then something crazy happened!
Before the movie started, we were sitting down,
and the guy sitting to my right spilled
his drink when he was setting it down.
It got all over my skirt.
But he wouldn't even apologize.
So Shinji lost his temper and
leaned over from my left to yell at him.
And that made him spill his melon soda,
too, so I was drenched from both sides.
It was pretty hilarious!
Are you listening?
Oh, sorry. I didn't finish my story.
So it was a scary horror movie,
and I was clutching onto
Shinji's arm from the opening credits.
Shinji said he wasn't scared,
but he was shaking.
But then, when the end credits began to roll,
The fire alarm went off
and everyone freaked out.
People were scuffling by the exits while
others were jumping out of their seats.
And in the chaos, I lost Shinji.
I evacuated before him and I waited
outside for what felt like hours.
I kept convincing myself he was okay.
But
the next time I saw Shinji,
he was on a gurney.
He suffocated to death.
His collar looked so tight because he's always
been so tiny and his uniform never fit right.
He was so busy using his power to save
everyone else that he didn't save himself.
Tragic, right?
So you were the one who was
controlling Tsunekichi at the funeral.
Well, come on.
I had to show everyone
what a hero Shinji is, didn't I?!
I wanted everyone to know how much
he loves me and how he can't live without me!
She's insane.
Hey, Yuka, how much longer
do I have to keep pinning her?
Oh! Sorry, babe.
She did sneak into my room
and stab my neck with a needle.
Yeah, yeah, I get it.
She did say she can use dead bodies
to see their immediate surroundings.
But then you had to be an angel and save a cat,
so I thought maybe I had you all wrong.
Yeah, that's why you said we should
wait until night to see what she's up to.
I guess this means she really
did come here to kill me.
She did say, "Your girlfriend
will join you soon enough."
She's got a screw loose.
I know, right? Nana's the crazy one, right?!
It's like she has split personality disorder.
I may have felt silly, pretending
to hear Tsunekichi's soul's voice,
but Yuka has been putting on
her own sick puppet show, too.
Yikes. She still had her needles on her.
Thanks, Shinji.
So anyway, Nana, sorry
but it's time to give up.
Give up?
There's always been
something off about this island.
I didn't really care,
as long as I could be with Shinji.
But now you've tried to kill us, right?
So I'm gonna tell the class
everything you tried to do to us.
What's wrong?
I remember you were pretty flustered at the
funeral when Kyoya suggested an autopsy.
Wait a minute did you kill Tsunekichi, too?
Nakajima and Shibusawa are also MIA.
Let me take a wild guess
Yes. I killed them.
Except
I may be a murderer, but at least
I let the dead rest in peace!
