01x11 - On the Road to My Justice!

[bunniefuu]

[panting]

Oh-h*... It's great to see your enthusiasm,

but you won't be able to even scratch me
with that dull blade.

Do it, Sakurama!

Have a taste of the gadget
made by the cadet you k*lled!

Burst Form!

[♪ theme music playing]

Go! Go! Loser Ranger!

[expl*si*n]

[Yamato] That form's overpowered!

Even a boss monster
wouldn't escape unscathed!

[Usukubo] You mustn't let your guard down.

Sakurama!

Are you all right?

No way. How are they still alive?

Crap! They escaped by a hair's breadth!

[Peltrola]
So you truly intend to betray us, D.

I've never seen that form before.
Let me take a look.

- Yikes! Here you go!
- [Akebayashi] Woah!

Huh?

- [Ishikawa grunts]
- [expl*si*n]

[groans]

Sakurama! It's dangerous
to do that out of nowhere!

Never mind that!
Please keep passing it around!

[Fighter D] Their laser takes time
to charge! Anyone will do.

The one that manages to get
within close range will finish them off!

[awkward chuckle]
What a reckless and naive plan.

I'm in!

[Akebayashi grunts]

[grunts]
Hey! I didn't agree to this...

- [yelps]
- Yukino! You have to get closer!

[Yukino] As if I can, stupid! Die!

[grunts]

[Akebayashi] Sakurama!

[both grunt]

[Akebayashi grunts]

I knew it wouldn't work!

[Yukino] What?

Yukino! One-two!

- [gasps]
- [Akebayashi] Let's go!

[Yukino] Jeez. Okay, fine!

Here you go!

[gasps]

Do it!

- [screams]
- [groans]

[groaning]

[Fighter D] These guys are amazing!

No wonder they managed
to survive as cadets!

- [expl*si*n in distance]
- [gasps]

This is the end, boss monster!

It's time you learn
how superior we humans are!

Go to hell, you damn b*stard!

[Peltrola] I'll start with you first.

Above you, Yukino!

[gasps]
Woah!

- [gasps]
- What...

[all gasp]

[body thuds]

I-Ishikawa!

Get away!

[gasps]

[Fighter D] Damn it,
I forgot that the clones exist...

[Peltrola] You're trembling.

No need to worry,
everyone's going to the same place as you.

[♪ intense music playing]

- [expl*si*n]
- All right! Four more left now!

Don't let your guard down yet, Tokita!

- [groans]
- You moron... Nadeshiko!

As you wish. Lovely! Hearty!

Panacea!

[Peltrola] Recovery?
No, that's regeneration.

Help me out, Suzukiri!

Roger. Beep! Fast-Forward.

- [grunts]
- [expl*si*n]

To think that a mere Junior First Rank
can come this far. Interesting!

I shall bury you with all of my power!

[Hisui] Looks like they're finally
getting motivated. In that case...

Tokita! Give them
one big blast as a greeting!

Jeez, don't order me around.

[♪ dramatic music playing]

[growling]

[Peltrola scoffs]
Where are you aiming...

Beep. Pause.

[beeping]

[Peltrola]
She stopped her own ally's attack?

[Hisui] I'm digging in.

[♪ tense music playing]

[Hisui grunts]

I can't eat any more.
I'm leaving the rest to you!

[Peltrola] Then, these fire dragons...

[Tokita] It's a barricade.

We wouldn't want you
to destroy this place any further.

I'm counting on you, old man!

Lovely! Hearty! Full Swing!

[♪ music intensifies]

[expl*si*n]

[rumbles]

- [Tokita] That was too much!
- [grunts]

That defeated
the purpose of putting up a barricade!

That was an opponent I could not afford
to go easy on, after all.

We should have taken care of most of them.

[Suzukiri] Now then...

I can't help you out openly,
but I can at least let one of you escape.

[Peltrola]
To think that there's a survivor...

It's a given
that she would detest the Rangers.

Divine Artifact, Manifest.
Pink Dragon Naga!

[♪ intense music playing]

[Pink Keeper] My way of thanking you for
what you did to my parents and my legs,

boss monster Peltrola.

[Ranger] Reporting in, Pink Keeper!

It appears that we have
multiple casualties underground.

[Pink Keeper] I'm worried.

Blue's Junior First Rank survived,

but other members of the Blue Squadron
have lost their lives...

[Pink Keeper]
I couldn't care less about those trash.

[Ranger] I'm sorry?

Why isn't it connecting?

[Pink Keeper] Hibiki... Please stay safe!

[Fighter D] Peltrola... You're pathetic.

You abandoned the fortress
and your subordinates,

and even resorted to
such underhanded means...

Is this how a boss monster,
who stands above us, is supposed to act?

[Peltrola chuckles]

[Yukino] Let me go!

If you're planning to use me as a hostage,
then too bad!

I won't be your shield!

[Yukino] We're not here to make friends!

- [Peltrola] Is that so? In that case...
- [Fighter D gasps]

- [grunts]
- [Fighter D] Please wait!

[Peltrola] Hmm?

We surrender.

[all] What?

[gasps]

Let's throw away the gadgets.

[Urabe] Are you serious, Sakurama?

I'm sure you understand what our priority
should be at this moment.

[heavy breathing]

Yeah, you're right.

[Fighter D] I don't get it myself either.

Before I met you guys...

Would I have done the same thing
before I came here?

[Akebayashi] Hold up!

If we throw away our weapons
before a boss monster,

there's no way we're not getting k*lled!

I see...

[Akebayashi] Sorry,
but I'm not going along with that!

Akebayashi! Are you escaping by yourself?

We don't have a choice.
Urabe and Shion, please hand them over.

No way! I'm doing this even if I'm alone!

Otherwise, Ranmaru wouldn't be able
to rest in peace!

Calm down.

Sakurama. Are you sure about this?

Yes.

[gasps]

Damn it!

[Fighter D] Please let us go with this,
boss monster.

[Peltrola] That's rather decisive of you.

You think I'll back down with just this?

If you don't,
we'll just fight until we die.

That's ridiculous, don't you think?

[manic laughter]

[expl*si*n]

[Peltrola]
Go, that pipe leads to the surface!

There is no need to lament.

The fact that you stopped fighting
is a huge improvement.

Once we've conquered this world,

we shall take good care of
you foolish surface-dwellers.

[Peltrola chuckles]

Ishikawa?

[Ishikawa coughs]

Excuse me. I couldn't help myself
after hearing such happy-go-lucky remarks.

[Peltrola] You still have
the energy to talk nonsense?

In that case,
I shall grant you salvation first.

I see.

Now I get why Sakurama wants to surrender.

You guys made the right choice.

Yukino managed to land a blow.

- [gasps]
- [shattering]

[grunts]

- [Peltrola groans]
- [grunts]

[clicks]

[Yukino] Darn, it's out of energy!

[Peltrola groans]
But it's too late now!

[Yukino] No, it isn't!

[pants, grunts]

You little...

[expl*si*n]

[laughing]

Sorry to keep everyone waiting!
The hero always arrives late!

- [moans]
- [groans]

- This is better, right?
- [soft chuckle]

That is exactly how a cadet,
the archenemy of monsters, should be!

[Peltrola] It's the same
no matter how many more people are here!

Everyone's Dragon Gadgets!

[Peltrola] You should have surrendered
without a fight.

It was foolish to abandon your weapons!

[both gasp]

You'll be fine, Kurusu.
Hold the bird over your head!

[grunts, yelps]

Foolish surface-dwellers!

- [Shippou] Throw it, Usukubo!
- [grunts]

No need for weapons.

All I need is this fist of mine!

For the sake of a peaceful world,
bow down to me!

No one's gonna listen to you.
We're all too busy with our own problems.

[Peltrola gasps]

Bleh.

All that fancy talk won't change anything.
We'll continue to fight.

[Fighter D] Because there are things
we can only grasp by winning.

Mimicry? Then where are the real ones?

[both grunting]

[snickers]

D! You betrayed...

I don't need your help anymore.

I wonder if I managed to act
a little more like a hero at the very end.

- [♪ somber music playing]
- [Yukino] Ishikawa... We did it.

We defeated the monster.

And it's a boss monster.

That wouldn't just make us
official Rangers.

[Yukino] We're as good as Dragon Keepers!

We did great as the Rangers.

- [sobbing]
- What a tragic end.

[Fighter D] This isn't the end for me yet.

My enemies are... the Dragon Keepers.

[reporter] Today's casualties caused
by monsters stand at 350 people,

an increase from last week.

Experts believe that the number
will continue to increase,

and thus the authorities
are working to further...

- [phone vibrating]
- [Aoshima's friend] Hello.

[Aoshima] What's up?

[lookout] The cash transport vehicle
should be arriving anytime soon.

Are you all prepared?

[Aoshima]
This sh*t isn't worth preparing for.

[lackey 1] All right,
shall we get to work?

[lackey 2] Let's make this quick
before the cops get here.

[Aoshima] Good evening.

Who are you guys?

[Aoshima] Those look heavy.

Leave the heavy-lifting work to us,
and go take a nap!

[lackey 1] Woah, awesome!
This is a whole lot of money!

[lackey 2] Mr. Kamiya's tip is perfect!

[Aoshima's friend] Let's follow him
for the rest of our lives!

- [lackeys] Yeah!
- [Aoshima] Hey.

You guys shouldn't fully trust
that old man...

- [Red Keeper] Wait!
- [gasps]

Where the evil of this world stirs,

you shall find us protecting justice!

The Red Keeper of the Divine
Dragon Rangers: the Dragon Keepers

makes his entrance!

- Let's grab those and head back quickly.
- [lackey 1] Got it.

[Red Keeper] This is important,
so I shall repeat myself! Wait!

[Aoshima's friend]
You sure we can ignore him?

He's from the Rangers.

[Aoshima]
The real one wouldn't bother with us.

We don't have the time
to deal with some cosplay dude.

[all gasp]

[Red Keeper] Sorry, but I'm the real deal.

You do know that stealing
someone else's money is bad, right?

I shall judge
all the evildoings in this world!

[all grunt]

This is how we make a living!
As if I'll let you judge us!

[grunts]

[Red Keeper grunts]

Take this!

You have a stout build.

It'll do the world a good deed
if someone like you joins the Rangers.

I'm not interested in fixing this world.

The more chaotic this world,
the better it is for scamps like us!

[both] Huh?

Seriously?
Things are just getting exciting.

[groans]

[lackey 2] Aoshima!

Something else came up.

You guys better not misbehave again.

Do that again
and I'll punish you for real!

[grunting]

[lackey 1] Damn it! What's his deal?

[Aoshima's friend laughing]

- [Aoshima] What's so funny?
- [Aoshima's friend grunts]

[Aoshima's friend]
Can you guess what this is?

[boss] Cheers to you courageous youths!

- [lackeys] Cheers!
- [glasses clink]

Is this really okay, Mr. Kamiya?

I think we've definitely
crossed the line yesterday.

Don't worry,
I've already made the perfect alibis.

We can prove that you guys were at
a completely different place at the time.

- Wow! You're really awesome, Mr. Kamiya!
- [lackey 1] Amazing!

[Aoshima] Red Keeper... That damn b*stard.
How dare he act like he's justice!

Woah! Playing games by yourself, Shougo?
That's so sad.

[Aoshima] Wakaba. Didn't you
quit this place for a daytime job?

I did, but the company
went out of business

because of monster-related problems,
so I'm back here.

[Wakaba] There are many others like me.

Come drink, Aoshima!

It wouldn't be surprising
if the world were to end tomorrow,

so let's use up all our fortune!

- I'm going home.
- Huh? What?

[lackey 2] Come on! Are you serious?

[Wakaba] What's wrong with him?

[Kamiya] Don't worry about it.
It happens all the time.

Apparently, saving money is his hobby.

Sorry to make you do this
all the time, Shougo.

This is more than the usual amount.

Should I not ask where you got them from?

Yeah. If I tell you, you'll transform.

I've had enough
of dealing with Dragon Keepers.

[snickers]

Damn brat!

I don't even need to transform
to deal with an amateur like you!

Don't look down on this Blue Keeper!

[Rikuto] I'm not here
as the Blue Keeper of the Rangers.

I'm managing this facility
in my personal capacity.

In these times, children with no one
to turn to will only increase.

As Blue, I have to deal with the monsters,
the root of all this.

So, I'll turn a blind eye to any mischief
caused by our facility graduates.

[Aoshima] Hah! Hard to believe
that you're an ally of justice.

I'm no ally of justice.

I simply want to side
with the kids living here.

Even someone like you
is a hero to these kids.

Um, big brother. Thank you for all you do.

[grunts]

[Aoshima] Don't be dumb.

I can no longer walk on
the sunny side of the street.

I'm just a scumbag who will probably
die in a ditch somewhere.

[police] No point playing dumb now.

We received a report
from the Ranger Force Headquarters.

[Aoshima] Damn you!

Fine, but I'm the only one you identified.

You don't have proof to show
that those guys were at the same place!

[police] That's right.

Those guys are suspected
of robbery, m*rder,

and abandonment of a corpse that occurred
at another place at the same time.

Kamiya!

[police] The fingerprints and shoeprints
left on the crime scene

are a perfect match to theirs.

That was unfortunate.

But you managed to earn some,
so it's all good.

- Screw you. Why did you set them up?
- [thumps on car]

It's common sense to throw away
the small fries once they're useless.

After all,
idiots tend to say unnecessary things

if they get carried away.

Damn you. You planned
to do this from the very start!

I see some promise only in you,

so I made sure that you'll get out
after five years or so.

Let's work together again.

Screw you!

- [grunts]
- [clanks]

[Kamiya] Not very obedient, are you?

Don't surface-dwellers have a rule
saying that you get punished

if you do something bad?

[Aoshima whimpers]

[whimpering]

Be a good boy and follow the rule!

[Aoshima] Damn... it...

[Aoshima grunts]

[Aoshima] Am I... still alive?

I see you're awake.

[Aoshima gasps]

[Aoshima] That voice... You're Red Keeper!

Quiet down.
Things are just getting exciting.

Because I have to protect
my precious allies!

Humans become stronger
when we fight for someone's sake!

Unlike you monsters who go on a rampage
for your own satisfaction!

[Red Keeper sighs]

Good things never grow old.

Sorry to keep you waiting, Shougo Aoshima.

Seems like you were having some trouble.

Shut up! Everything turned into a mess
because you butted in...

Calm down, now.
Still acting like a mad dog, aren't you?

[Aoshima grunts]

[Red Keeper] Many citizens fall into traps
set by monsters, just like you.

I guess a chaotic world
is inconvenient for scamps too.

[Aoshima] Damn it!
Just throw me into a cell already!

Calm down.

You have two choices.

Either you take the path of the villain,

where you'll accept your punishment
in a dark and confined room,

or you take the path
of the righteous hero,

where you'll punish the monster
who tricked you with your own hands.

You're asking me
to join the Rangers again?

What a load of crap.

You're half-right, but you have
the potential to aim even higher.

Truth be told,

Blue Keeper was gravely injured
while you were asleep.

- [Aoshima gasps]
- [Red Keeper] That one's a goner.

I can't use him anymore.

[Aoshima] You're lying. No way!

Can you forgive that dastardly monster?

You wish to avenge your allies

and the person
who took care of you, right?

The power of the Dragon Gods
will grant your wish!

Shougo Aoshima.
You are the new Blue Keeper!

[Blue Keeper] I don't need allies anymore.

If I were to be alone
from the very beginning,

then I wouldn't feel lonely.

[panting]

Damn it... There's too many of them!

Blue Keeper!

[grunts, groans]

Konno!

Konno!

You're safe...

T-Take this... It's my cartridge.

[Blue Keeper] Konno!

Isn't this the same as before?

Because of my incompetence, my allies are...

No, I won't make the same mistake!

I will protect him!

[Peltrola] We got interrupted.

There's no need to be sad.

Soon, you and your subordinate
will be headed to a quiet world.

Divine Artifact, Manifest! Hiruko!

[♪ heroic music playing]

[chokes]

Th-This is...

[grumbling]

Breathing...

It's a biological mechanism
you have to use

as long as you're living on the surface.

Boss monster, you're not becoming a god.

I avenged you, Aizome.

- I'm not dead yet!
- [♪ music stops]

[both gasp]

- Huh...
- [wails]

- Junior First Rank Aizome... I'm so glad!
- I thought you were going to die for real!

I'm sorry that I couldn't
rush over to you immediately!

[Aizome] No, it's okay.

After all,
the most trustworthy hero came for me.

[Blue Keeper] Your wound is shallow.
Thanks, Konno.

Don't you die
over something dumb like this!

[thuds]

[Fighter D] Woah, they're all dead!

You did this all alone? What a freak!

That voice...

[Fighter D]
But there is still an enemy left.

A monster is right here.

Monsters or the Dragon Keepers...

Time to settle
which one of us will rule the world!

[♪ closing theme music playing]

[laughs]
Divine Artifact, Manifest!

Time to settle
which one of us will rule the world!

Fighter-kun, it's finally the cl*max!

Wow! I'm excited
to find out who's going to win!

You guys talk
like it's none of your business!

[Blue Keeper] Next episode,
"Never Stop, Fighter D!"

- [all] Blue Keeper!
- Let me say it!
