Lycoris Recoil (2022) s01e10 Episode Script

1
Can you really track him down
from academic papers?
It would be hard to do clinical trials
for artificial hearts of that kind, yeah?
Well, putting it in only to have it fail
would be a big deal.
So Alan Institute gave them an opportunity
to illicitly experiment with it.
I see. Since Lycoris don't have family registries,
they're perfect for the job.
There has to be something that sparked Alan
to discover the researchers.
Kurumi.
What?
- Squeak Squeak
- This, uh perverted guy, and
I guess I should put an end to it after all.
LycoReco will be closing down.
I feel bad taking so much time away
from everyone for my sake.
And this place has to be a fun place
until the very end!
Are you okay with that, though?
I was planning to do so to begin with.
This has been running longer
than I had expected, too.
Right, Mizuki?
Now, everyone follow Takina's footsteps,
and return to the paths you came from!
Hey, you! Mizuki, where will you go?
I guess I'll go meet that hunk in Vancouver
that I met on a dating website.
Wow! Let me see.
Whoa, he's ripped.
And you, Kurumi?
In this country,
my life is in danger without you.
DA is after you, too.
I'm going to leave this country.
Then you should go to Germany!
Germany?
More board-games?
Yeah! The best place for them!
They have big competitions there too.
Then you should come with me.
I can make a ticket for you and stuff.
Oh, that's an option.
But Teach will get lonely, so I can't!
Do invite Takina someday, though.
Yeah.
Starting with the weapons deal in April,
the Metro assault, Lycoris murders,
the police station assault
The mastermind behind
all of these cases is this man named Majima.
He's a globetrotting warmonger.
He was confirmed to be in our country
ten years ago as well,
in the Radio Tower incident
that everyone knows about.
I had thought all of them had been executed.
She's been wearing a 1st uniform
from when she was such a little kid.
Majima has received requests from several
mafia groups domestically and internationally.
He's after Enkuboku.
We captured one of the clients, and identified
the location where Majima is in hiding.
We will attack with full force.
Find him, and kill him.
Heart, huh?
I have a good idea
about your relationship now.
What a sad little misunderstanding.
And you're quite the sinful one, too.
I'm sure she'd be so disappointed if the Mister Yoshi
she idolizes so much is someone like this.
I really sympathize with her.
But, thanks to that,
my life was spared at the Radio Tower.
That's why I warned you, Alan Institute!
I didn't betray you, okay?
Meddling with things because they aren't
going as planned is against Alan's rules, yeah?
Are you gonna be okay?
It was my mistake
that she strayed from her path.
I must take responsibility.
Then, are you gonna kill me too?
You're an excellent Children.
Were a thousand guns enough for you?
Don't patronize me.
I'm just like her, you know?
I live how I want to live.
So I might do as I please and kill you.
Is that gonna be all right?
If that means it’ll fulfill Alan's ideals,
I am willing to sacrifice my life.
You really are disgusting.
You're just like DA.
Sneaking in the shadows and trying to manipulate
the world with egocentric "Sense of Justice."
You're next after DA, Alan Institute.
Where's your HQ?
Well?
You can head to the airport this time
without hiding inside a suitcase.
What's wrong?
You're ruining your cute face.
Thanks for taking care of me.
What's this? This isn't like you.
You fare well too, Mizuki.
Yeah.
All right.
I'm trusting you'll take care of Chisato.
Yeah.
Don't be unreasonable, okay?
Our old man is pretty ancient, you know.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, let’s go.
Well, I guess we should
start cleaning up, Teach.
We can't do anything about it.
This is what Chisato wants.
I didn't say anything, did I?
We still have Takina.
Are you Majima's client?
I already told you guys everything.
His target is Enkuboku.
Were you the one who provided the weapons?
That again?
Even if we had a thousand guns, if we don't
have enough soldiers, then it’s meaningless.
Then was it Yoshimatsu?
Yoshimatsu? Who's that?
So this is a Lycoris.
To think brats like this
have been killing my buddies.
Stop!
I was fired once
for killing too many people.
I did like the life outside of here,
so I don't mind getting fired again.
I don't know a Yoshimatsu!
I really don't know!
Then, what about the guns?
Alan! He said it was from Alan!
You mean the Alan Institute?
No idea. That's all I know!
My shoulder!
So it was Yoshimatsu.
Hey, hold it, brat! I'll kill you!
Construction of Enkuboku
is finally wrapping up.
NOTICE
Thank you very much for your patronage!
We have decided to close our doors for a while.
We can’t thank our customers enough
for taking the time and visiting us.
LycoReco Management
With the completion ceremony
scheduled for tomorrow,
preparations are underway
in the area surrounding the venue.
Hey, I was watching that.
Sheesh, we’re supposed to be cleaning.
Hey, it's Riki! He was so cute.
Hey, Teach. What are you going to do now?
I guess I'm heading
to the realtors tomorrow morning.
I don't mean that. You could hire
part-time workers to keep this café going.
Is that what you want me to do?
How long are you going to be there?
Oh, okay.
I'm going to close up now.
I have to properly bid farewell
to this café, too.
Don't overexert yourself.
You see through it all, Teach.
I really do feel lonely.
Should I brew some coffee?
Please do!
Bravo, green. Delta, green. Charlie, green.
Looks like he already got away.
Alpha one, all green.
Whoa! There sure are a lot of you.
Is this like a school trip?
Lower your weapons!
Majima.
Huh? Oh, we have
the chaperoning teacher here, too.
Who the hell are you?
The one commanding your death, Majima.
I guess I don't need to introduce myself.
So you're the Lycoris's kingpin?
What are you after? Money?
That too. I have to worry about
how my buddies live after all.
But more than that, I took this job
because it piqued my interest.
Interest? In abetting the mafia?
Interest in the kind of people who are villains,
but pretend to be heroes for justice.
You guys are the villains.
The ruler for good or evil,
in the present age, is the law.
Do you guys exist under the law?
We have existed from before
those laws were created.
We surpass government structures
and have been nurturing the peace
and morals of this nation.
Hurry and identify
the origin of communication.
Roger.
The enemy is changing hosts
every five seconds.
Surpass the structures?
Who exactly do you think you are?
Radiata has started predicting
the next host.
I have no intention on talking about that.
In the end, the interests of this country
are being preserved.
Is that what you call
Machiavellianism? So old-fashioned.
I wonder what the public would think if they
found out stuff like that is going unpunished.
No need to worry.
True peace is a world where the presence
of villains are not even felt.
You will also disappear
without entering anyone's memory.
With information control
that you're so good at?
But you know, won't people forget the meaning
of peace if they don't know of the tragic reality?
And it's something that isn't given to them,
but something they have to win and earn.
What an intelligent thing to say.
So a villain can't bear the recognition
that he himself is evil?
I'm just worried about you, you know?
The scales of good and evil
should not be controlled by the likes of you,
regardless of which way it swings.
The balance must be restored.
Is that the reason
you're going after Enkuboku?
You see through that far?
It's unbalanced unless
both of them are broken!
Even if you arm your men with the guns you obtained,
the results will be the same as ten years ago.
You think so?
Will she help you out again?
Commander, we still need more time
to trace the host. Please keep stalling.
Stop it.
Peace out, kingpin of the Lycoris.
Hey!
Hold it!
Takina!
Oh, Miss Black Hair. It's been a while.
You went back over there?
Where’s Yoshimatsu?
What? It's about Mister Yoshi for you too?
Man, he's really popular.
I have no interest in you.
Tell me where Yoshimatsu is.
I don't have interest in you, either.
So, make yourself at home.
Damn it, we're at our limit.
Sever the comms!
The coffee I left there should still be warm.
Wait!
Line has been disconnected.
We have obtained the final host.
The last access point used
was Kamata in Ota Ward.
Hold on! What's with this? Why!?
Well, I have some personal—
Where am I supposed to draw
my manga from now on!?
I can't find a café as quiet as this anywhere.
Anyways, you have to come back.
That's a promise, okay?
Isn't this a bit too sudden, Master?
Let's not close down, okay?
S-Seriously?
I-I'm so tired.
But it kinda cheers us up. Right?
Indeed.
ENKUBOKU COMPLETION CEREMONY
- Amazing!
- So awesome.
The security Lycoris have all taken their places.
And now, we would like to begin
the Enkuboku Completion Ceremony.
ENKUBOKU COMPLETION CEREMONY
Governor Onuma, go ahead!
It’s that box.
How long haven't you touched this?
A rifle?
It's yours. Open it.
Should we lock up?
Another patron might drop by.
No, it's fine. It's not a weapon.
A kimono?
Your Sunday clothes, so to say.
Though it's a bit early
for your coming-of-age ceremony.
H-Hey!
So? How is it?
Yes, I got a good picture.
No, that's not what I'm talking about.
What do you think, Teach?
Oh. You look wonderful, of course.
You're a grown woman now.
Well
Thanks, Teach!
I haven't done anything
to earn your appreciation, though.
Come on now.
You're the one who gave me my name.
And the one who taught me how to shoot guns.
And why this café exists.
And how I was able to meet Takina.
And most of all, you're the one
who found Mr. Yoshi for my sake, right?
Hey! Can you send
Mr. Yoshi the photo you just took?
- I can ask for that—
- That's not what I mean!
Wh-What is it, Teach?
Why such a loud voice?
Chisato.
There's something about Shinji
that I want to talk to you about.
We’ve located Majima’s car.
Begin.
Avoid the ceremony,
and lure him to the north.
TRAFFIC RESTRICTIONS DUE TO SECURITY
Block every other route heading to Enkuboku.
ENTRANCE CLOSED
NO ENTRY
If he's aiming to destroy,
he'll target this location.
Bravo, complete. Charlie, complete.
Delta, complete.
Alpha, complete.
Target has passed through
the predicted point!
Impossible.
That means we have him cornered.
Surround him!
CONTROL ROOM
I'm leaving the rest up to you,
my Hacker.
ENKUBOKU BROADCAST SIGNAL
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The backdoor was set up for this day!
I asked Shinji to perform the operation
back then so I can profit as a commander.
At least, that's how I felt back then.
I'm okay with her staying alive
for the time that she's an active Lycoris.
If that's the case, I will accept.
But you have to promise me one thing.
Promise?
I want you to raise her
into being the strongest hitman.
Lies.
Lies. All lies! Because Mr. Yoshi said
he was a savior who saves people.
Then, why?
I couldn't tell you.
Your admiration for Shinji that kept growing
within you turned into power.
It supported your life
that could end at any moment.
It was too bright, and fleeting.
Teach.
Was it better for me to tell you?
That how you lived your life was a mistake?
That if you kept killing,
Shinji would save you again?
Was it better for me to tell you?
Tell me, Chisato.
Thank you, Teach.
Thank you for letting me decide.
If you had told me,
I'm sure I would have lost.
And I think I would have
resigned myself to work as a Lycoris.
And I would have blamed all the bad things
and hardships on you and on Mr. Yoshi.
I would hate for that to happen.
Yeah. No way.
My job and starting this café.
They're all things I decided for myself.
My gratitude for Teach and Mr. Yoshi
that allowed that to happen
won't change at all,
even after hearing that.
You two are my dads.
TEACH ME MR. SAVIOR
And that feels like the happiest thing ever.
I’m sorry. I'm so sorry
Come on, Teach. Don't cry.
So what do you think?
Your opinion of me looking like this. Like it?
Yeah. A daughter that I am so proud of.
And now, for the finale
of the Enkuboku Completion Ceremony,
ENKUBOKU COMPLETION CEREMONY
we will transmit a broadcasting signal!
At the end of the countdown,
the Enkuboku system will automatically begin
the broadcast transmission.
Now everyone, together with me!
Five! Four! Three! Two! One!
Start!
Hey, fools. I came here to Enkuboku
with a bit of truth to share.
This is from Enkuboku!
Shut it off.
- Radiata making an approach. Estimated
- What are you up to, Majima?
While other countries are duking it out
with terrorism and warfare,
this country is peace itself.
So much that it feels disgusting.
Because the people have a high cultural standard?
Japanese people are amazing?
Worthless people always
want to take pride in categorizing.
Terrorism has happened multiple times.
They've just been covered up.
A hard sell of peace
filled with lies and exaggeration.
They put a lid on any impurities.
This country has a bunch of people
adhering to such a filthy peace.
And I just don't like it. That's why
I scattered ones just like this
all over the prefecture.
So the thousands of guns were for this!
Don't handle civilians with guns.
Do not fire under any condition!
They're trying to bring the existence of Lycoris
out into the open. That's his true objective!
A toy?
You there! Drop the gun!
Huh? What? No, I'm
Now, shoot as you please!
And protect yourselves from them!
What you do is all up to you.
A world of truth, with no lies—
ONE MOMENT PLEASE
Broadcast from Enkuboku
shutdown complete.
Commander, incoming comm from HQ.
Kusunoki.
What is the meaning of this?
Radiata can control information
in any way necessary.
The existence of Lycoris
will always be kept secret.
However, your existence has been suggested
to everyone in Japan. This was a blunder, no?
Why aren't you deploying
Chisato Nishikigi?
Didn't you have her on a leash
just for times like this?
Please leave the operation planning to us.
Kusunoki, are you underestimating us?
I will say it one more time.
Deploy Chisato Nishikigi.
That is the only option you have.
A State of Emergency has just been declared.
I repeat.
All citizens should refrain from stepping outside
unnecessarily, and be careful of malicious rumors.
Enkuboku has been taken over
by terrorists,
What is this?
and it seems that the broadcast signal
has been hijacked.
The perpetrator is a male in his 30s.
The police is looking into identifying the individual.
Mika.
Is that you, Kusunoki?
Please put Chisato on the line.
Chisato is quite tied up right now.
Teach, give me that.
Chisato here.
Come to HQ immediately. Meet up with us,
and kill Majima at Enkuboku.
If you get close to Enkuboku,
this guy will die.
The bomb will go off in one hour.
This is a situation
where we need a Lycoris like you.
Many lives are at stake here.
It's bad for us
if a Lycoris like you showed up.
His life is on the line, got that?
Is someone there?
N-No.
Kusunoki, we'll call you back.
Good, good.
Don't you do anything stupid, okay?
I'm constantly watching over you guys.
It's likely a trap.
But I can't just leave him to die!
I said this earlier, but Shinji is—
It's not that I'm doubting you, Teach.
But I want to see Mr. Yoshi in person,
and hear it directly from him.
Looks like I can
get rid of the ammo in the armory.
Bring everything from there.
Teach!
Takina and Fuki will protect Enkuboku.
They're both my outstanding students,
just like you.
Yeah!
