[bunniefuu]

Approaching the target point.

Target, confirmed.

An overturned fishing vessel.

Any survivors?

I see two.

Commence rescue if possible.

Commencing rescue now.

A little to the right.

Kondo, are you there?

Yes, but I lost the survivors!

The boat sank!

Increase altitude and distance.

-We'll reapproach if we can.

-Roger that.

Akitsushima, this is JA-696A.

A giant…

a giant sea snake-like creature

has appeared.

He's already up there.

He's fast.

THEORIS

All clear. It's a person. Don't sh**t.

Hello there.

Hunters?

You must have heard the g*nsh*t.

It's dangerous. Get off the mountain.

We were also just about to…

What?

What is it?

-Yun!

-No! You can't!

Basically, Archetype may exist already?

That might be possible.

And it refracts light toward the past?

Sounds far-fetched.

I saw it with my own eyes.

Light returning over and over

and exploding.

Let's stick to the real world.

It defies the laws of physics.

Couldn't it transcend time

if information isn't transferred?

An expl*si*n is information.

That professor got super lucky

and defied the laws of physics.

Or she already knew the answer. Possibly.

But it's impossible for light

to refract through time.

I'll bet on it.

Winner gets sushi.

And a helicopter ride over Tokyo.

I'm in.

Professor Li wants to see you

about your report.

Try to picture light moving back in time

within a certain medium.

Like this, with space on the vertical axis

and time on the horizontal axis.

Light normally refracts like this,

but in this case, it refracts here.

So there's a problem

with conservation of energy?

Light is emitted from here

before photons reach the medium.

Anti-photons are simultaneously generated

and they annihilate each other

on the medium's surface.

Sounds good so far.

If this process can be generated,

it's then a matter of repeating it.

Sending photons from the past

to the medium again

will increase them infinitely.

In theory.

It sounds right.

We call that process the Ashihara Cascade.

I knew it.

You already figured it out.

I feel like I wasted time thinking.

Sometimes, the thought process

is more important than the answer.

You got the answer right away,

but it took us years.

We finally got it

by studying Ashihara's paper.

Ashihara's paper?

In the middle of the journey of our life

I found myself within a dark wood

Where the straight way was lost

What's that?

A quote from Dante's "Inferno."

I thought you were a scientist.

Well…

Fairy tales have some truth to them.

Like tossing monsters into the sea

and mixing them to achieve immortality.

Amrita.

The Acheron? Where's the ferry?

This is also Dante.

Once you cross the River Styx,

there's no turning around.

Abandon all hope, ye who enter here

The Gates of Hell.

Or is this the primordial soup

of ancient earth?

The new phase of Archetype is here.

The sensors are reacting. They're moving.

Is Ashihara's prophecy coming true?

Retreat!

Abnormal sensor levels. Unanalyzable.

The survey team is heading back.

What's that?

The one that set off the sensors.

Drop your bags and run.

What? Hey!

If I were that old woman,

I'd sacrifice us to keep it underground.

You're kidding me.

The monster is fast.

It will catch up to them.

Really? Are you sure?

Close it.

Is it controlling the Red Dust?

Keep moving! You'll get trapped in hell!

Damn that old woman.

-What is it?

-Look.

Blood?

It probably got shot.

An injured kaiju. We better be careful.

Hey.

Looks like he found something.

Yun, run!

There it is.

It deflected the b*llet.

Are you okay?

Don't sh**t all of a sudden.

It predicted the projectile

and deflected the b*llet?

Light can be collected from one

to three minutes in the future.

Isn't it the same as seeing the future?

Yes, you're right.

But if the information isn't transferred…

I guess it is, huh?

Advanced waves? EPR correlation?

What do you think?

Maybe it's not possible?

Does it still defy the laws of physics?

Let's say it's possible

for argument's sake.

What do you think

the future would look like?

TYPING…

What would the future look like?

The Archetype presentation

was like watching alchemy.

What do you think

is in the photo with Ashihara?

Since when were you allowed to quiz me?

That skeleton. Misakioku must have

already started the research.

Skeleton?

What if

there's a connection between

Archetype and the bones?

Our country is interested in funding

the research on Archetype.

The groundwork is underway.

We look forward to your response.

So your plant in India is almost complete?

You should come to visit.

Our researchers see a similarity

in the Red Dust on Rodans

and the raw material of Archetype.

Red Dust?

Actually, the raw material

of Archetype is very rare

and is found only in certain places.

We'd like to share

that information with you.

Rodans and Archetype come

from the same origin?

That's one theory.

A camper saw a huge shadow

in the middle of the night…

If the big hedgehog sees you,

it could eat you.

-Did he get eaten?

-It wasn't a boar.

It wasn't a deer either.

I heard a loud noise.

It was covered with spikes

and roared like a train.

Then what?

The city office said they're going

to hunt it down in the mountains,

but I wonder if it will work.

Mountains?

The two missing fishermen were rescued.

They were attacked

by what looks like a water snake…

Close the Uraga Channel?

We'll lose access to Tokyo Bay.

It will be an economic disaster.

What if it attacks a chemical tanker?

It must be k*lled right away.

The sea creature has been named Manda,

which means giant snake.

Disaster relief units are going after…

Rodans, which have been seen in Japan,

were witnessed in Auckland, New Zealand.

Rodans have been sighted

in the following six countries.

Australia, New Zealand,

Cook Islands, Fiji, Niue…

A flock of Rodans in Singapore,

Kuala Lumpur, and…

Airlines are canceling their flights

due to Rodans in the West Pacific…

-Flight restrictions…

-More and more Rodans…

The Otaki signal was used in Japan…

SKIES OVER HONG KONG

The weather is perfect today

for some hunting in the mountains.

To ensure the safety of our citizens,

we'll do whatever we can

to quickly find Anguirus

and either capture or exterminate it.

Fortunately…

What's Anguirus?

The name of the kaiju.

The mayor's new grandchild saw it

on the news and called it Anguirus.

Maybe he meant to say Ankylosaurus.

We want you to use that radio wave thing

that attracted the Rodans

to lure it into that trap.

Will you do it?

I don't know

if it will react to radio waves,

but Jet Jaguar can cage the monster.

Otaki, long time no see!

Hey, Gen. This is huge.

A whaling g*n?

Can this truck stand the recoil?

Don't worry. I still know how to fight.

That's not what I said.

You know how skilled I am.

Like I said…

I'm aware of the danger.

Tires must be more stable

than bipedal walking.

I didn't have time to thoroughly

design the lower body.

It's learning posture control

through a genetic algorithm.

Looks complicated.

I have various settings to readjust

since it originally used bipedal walking.

So it's like changing from fins to wings?

Will the kaiju come out of hiding

with all this commotion?

Even if it does, it might be too swift

to lure into the cage.

It might also deflect b*ll*ts

like it did before.

I'm sure it can't deflect every b*llet.

Some parts of its body must be vulnerable.

That's…

This is Japan where a sea creature

called Manda was witnessed.

Another monster appeared on land.

The hunt to capture this new monster,

Anguirus, is about to start.

Wouldn't Manda attract more views?

Hi, guys.

A small group like us

has no place in the mainstream.

I want to see the footage from before.

What footage?

Here.

Did it predict the b*llet's projectile?

Like a batter reading a pitch?

Impossible. The velocity of r*fle b*ll*ts

is over 900 meters per second.

The sh**ter was around 20 meters

away from Anguirus.

Around 0.02 seconds

for the b*llet to reach it.

Sensory nerve conduction

is 50 to 60 meters per second.

It wouldn't have time to react

even if it read the projectile.

So how did it deflect it?

Maybe it just turned its back

toward the sh**ter.

And it was already injured, wasn't it?

Why didn't it deflect

the Self Defense Force's attack?

It didn't know what firearms could do.

Then it learned about the loud sound

and ensuing pain

that comes from the cylinder.

That's why it got hit the first time.

-Still--

-Right here.

The spike moved

before the r*fle was fired.

Where?

This?

It does look like it's moving

before the r*fle was fired, but…

Predicting the future.

No. Maybe it's not predicting it.

What if it can actually see it?

That's an interesting theory.

Come on.

I have to go.

Is he really a journalist?

Will Anguirus come out?

Even if it does,

I don't know if we can help.

There are houses around here.

This is our field of fire.

Unless the monster enters it,

there's nothing we can do.

LIFE FREE OF WORLDLY CARES

Ashihara's name is on a list

of pharmaceutical patents in London.

Something about

a rare molecule from jellyfish.

It was never put to practical use

and the company was acquired.

He was also the founder of the company

that managed the patents.

Archetype Co., Ltd.

Now it's an affiliate of SHIVA.

Ms. Kanoko went to see them.

A consortium and Misakioku.

Plus, its founder

and a pharmaceutical company in London.

And here's what's confusing.

SHIVA was established 50 years ago

and it also acquired

the Archetype company 50 years ago.

Ashihara founded

the Archetype company 60 years ago.

So this one came first?

SHIVA might have been

a subsidiary of Archetype Co., Ltd.

Was it taken over by a subsidiary?

Or did Ashihara make SHIVA?

SHIVA is building a huge facility

right now in Upala, India.

You had outside help, didn't you?

I have to file for more expenses…

Manda didn't react to the radio waves.

Do radio waves reach underwater?

I'm sure not every kaiju

is attracted to radio waves.

If Rodans are radio-wave kaiju,

then Anguirus…

Can it deflect b*ll*ts?

Or can it predict the future?

We've been shot!

Angui…

It deflected the b*ll*ts.

What happened? Come in!

This is the command post!

Over there, at the course's edge.

They're coming back.

What happened?

It's gotten bigger.

It won't fit in the cage.

What about Mr. O?

He hasn't noticed.

Call him on the wireless.

It's going to catch up to them.

Look at that truck!

Whaling g*n? Will that work?

Go, Gen! Hit it out of the park!

Hard-a-port!

It's packed with expl*sives?

I missed. Load the next one.

Otaki!

I knew it.

Sit tight and watch.

So you think you can do whatever you want?

Jet Jaguar won't allow it!
