01x04 - The Worst Trio Possible

[bunniefuu]

Lonely...

So lonely.

Ms. "Akari@FightingAnIllness"

Extinguished right after birth. So lonely.

How heartbreaking.

You've been wallowing
in loneliness for eight days.

Please cheer up.

You win some, you lose some.
That's the way of the world.

Didn't you finally find "him"?

Mr. GARAN was right.

It's okay to hug.

I'm flattered.

Master K.

Let's go say hello to "him,"
the one with the ghost fire.

Let's go say hello to "him",
the one with the Ghost Fire.

[DEAD ACCOUNT]

Is this...

BIC CAMERA?

That's right.
This is the location of this exorcism.

The stage for vanquishing Ghost Accounts.

Who are you?

Oh, it's me, Azaki.

Wearing a monk's robe in the city
would draw too much attention.

That's why I'm in disguise.

All right, let's get down to business.

In this electronics store--

Excuse me.

Yes?

Sir, you're so handsome.

You're tall too.
- I don't...

What a face!
- I don't...

If you don't mind,
would you like to eat with us?

Sorry, I'm working right now.

Besides, I must renounce
all worldly desires.

Embrace poverty, chest...

Why is he so cute?

He's not making any sense.

You just peeked at her chest,
didn't you? So funny.

Let's go, come on.

Wait...

Why did he even come here?

I don't know what to do with him...

Hours ago,

[Kakiko Itabashi]
inside BIC CAMERA,

a number of paranormal phenomena occurred.

One customer was in critical condition.

It's believed a "Ghost Account nexus"
has appeared.

A "nexus"?
Ghost Accounts move in clusters?

Ghost Accounts are electronic entities.

They must recharge periodically
in electronics or they die.

That's why electronics stores
are often haunted.

I see.

So, then,

why do I have to be
in the same group as them?

You're definitely picking on me.

It's rare that we see eye to eye.

But you know that Mr. Azaki
loves playing these pranks, right?

I think there's been a misunderstanding.

Kasubata is different,

but I'm just an ordinary boy.

Ordinary boys don't laugh
and fight at the same time.

I want to go home.

My idol's live stream starts in two hours!

If I don't donate,
my existence will be forgotten.

Hey, you care more
about fangirling than the mission!

What's so strange about that?

Want me to spray slime on your face?

I didn't choose to be a spirit medium.

What's wrong with her?

This mission is to clear out
the Ghost Accounts in the building.

All customers and employees
have been evacuated.

According to the Intelligence Division,
only low-level Ghost Accounts are inside.

But don't let your guard down.

[Closed Today Due to Fallen Products]
You three,

[We Apologize for the Inconvenience]
You three,

make sure you all come back alive.

All right, let's go!

Who said you could tell us what to do?

[Unlocked Phone]

An empty electronics store
is interesting, but also a bit creepy.

Let's quickly deal with these low-level
Ghost Accounts and go home.

Hey, won't something happen
if you walk around so carelessly?

What's wrong?

Want to chat?

Uru...

Cyber Out.

[Parasocial p*stol]
Parasocial p*stol.

The slime turned into a g*n?

Kiyomi Urusugawa.

She's a clingy exorcist girl
who st*lks band members online.

Amazing... What did you say?

A stalker, clingy girl.

[Yami, Love, Love, Love]
She's a fan

[No to Fellow Fans, You Fuglies]
of some band's

[No Private Contact Allowed]
guitar or bass player.

[Is It in Nerima Ward?]
She enlarges the reflection in his pupils.

[I Love You, Love You, Love You]
She fantasizes about rivals and even

[A Woman Must Have Taken This.]
investigates addresses from photos.

Repeatedly flagged as problematic
and blocked, she just makes new accounts.

She's a total piece of sh*t, clingy girl.

Excuse my language.

They're not called "some band"!

The band is called "Yami Ichigo Union".

He's the bassist, Kureha.

And this is pure love, I'm not a stalker!

To put it simply,

the way you use your channeling device,
which is your phone,

determines the nature
of your cyberkinesis.

All attack types have
terrible personalities.

I see. So that's why
I'm a flaming exorcist.

Kasubata!

Why all of a sudden?

They were just at each other's
throats a moment ago.

No...

They've always fought side by side
like this.

Exorcism is all about teamwork.

This is true exorcism.

That was close.

Teamwork.

You're the one who's dangerous,
you piece of sh*t!

I was almost burned to death
by your Ghost Fire!

Teamwork...

[Bic Camera 7th Floor]
That was awesome!

We really lucked out this time.

That's right.

I don't know what happened,
but they suddenly announced an evacuation.

They kicked out all the customers
and staff.

If we get all these products resold...

This is so frustrating.

Didn't I say I don't want
to be a spirit medium?

It's lame and dangerous.

It doesn't suit a cute girl
like me at all.

But it can't be helped, can it?
I'm just so talented.

Besides, how can I support my idol
if I don't make money?

[Yami Ichigo Union]
I'll go all out to support my idol!

[Sweet Potato Fries]
That's why I became a spirit medium.

Explanation complete!

What's with that dumbfounded look
on your face?

Didn't you ask me why I came
to Miden Academy first?

Do you have a problem with that?

Don't spray it at me!

You two, do your jobs properly!

It's not that I have a problem.

It's just that you're quite different from
what I imagined a spirit medium to be.

I've always been at odds
with attacker-type exorcists.

Any idea how many times those jerks
reported me and I need new accounts?

That's your own fault, Urusugawa.

What did you say,
you gloomy piece of sh*t?

You're the jerk I was talking about!

Piece of sh*t? How vulgar.

I told you, that's referring to you too!

How rude!

It's amazing that they can
fight together after all that.

Anyway, he's a jerk,
but his ability is top-notch.

There's no shortage of attack-type guys.

Not to mention a guy
who controls Ghost Fire.

Indeed, I can release deadly flames.
Who would trust me to watch their backs?

But...

Exorcism is all about teamwork.

[Bic Camera 7th Floor]
All right, this is the last floor.

Yami Ichigo Union's livestream
is about to start.

Let's get this over with quickly.

You stay in the corner and watch.

Darn it!

Got you.

Now...

That's enough.

What's wrong?

I worked so hard to make

[DEAD ACCOUNT, Kirika]
that doll so photogenic.

Oh, I'm going to get new dolls again.

Super photogenic.

The wounds are healing.

This thing is cursed!

What? Didn't they say there are
only low-level Ghost Accounts here?

Retreat, Urusugawa!

What are you afraid of?

I've trapped her with my slime beam.

She can't move at all--

Photogenic! Super photogenic!

Your eyes need to be bigger!

Your arms and legs need to be longer!

Let go of me, you b*stard!

You piece of sh*t...

This is so frustrating.

Don't get in my way!

Kasu... Kasubata!

Why do I keep getting blown away lately?

What the heck is that?

You call that a low-level Ghost Account?

Don't tell me you didn't listen
to our psychokinesis lesson?

Damn it, let go of me!
- Ghost Accounts with special abilities.

Damn it, let go of me! I said let go!
- They are called the Cursed

Photogenic! Super photogenic!
- and classified as intermediate or above.

Photogenic! Super photogenic!
- Normally, we make an exorcism plan first

Photogenic! Super photogenic!
- and then form a team to exorcise it.

We'll all be wiped out if we attack now.

Let go of me, you ugly hag!

Who are you calling ugly?
I'm super photogenic, okay?

This guy is completely different
from any enemy we've faced.

Completely...

Photogenic?

You should get out of here.

I'll get out of here as soon
as I save Urusugawa.

Kasu... Kasubata.

Don't even think about us
fighting together.

It's a pain to watch out
for your Ghost Fire while I fight.

That woman is from Class 1-B.
Let go of her!

Photogenic! So photogenic!

It had no effect.

She just regenerated after I attacked her.

What should I do
with this unphotogenic girl?

That's right. I'll twist her head off
and make her blood splurt.

That would definitely look better,
wouldn't it?

Urusugawa!

He's throwing Ghost Fire
at us by enflaming a doll.

Urusugawa, retrieved!

Have you heard this saying?

Exorcism is all about teamwork.

Who cares if you think
I'm in the way, idiot?

I'm a member of Class 1-B now!

Photogenic...

Don't get in my way of
becoming photogenic!

Run!

The shutters are sealed!

Hide!

The intel didn't say anything
about an intermediate level!

Anyway, call for backup... Mr. Azaki?

He just ran off with a smile on his face!

Darn it.

What is he doing at a time like this?

Where are you? Where are you hiding?

Damn it. What should we do now?

We're doomed to die. Why hide?

See? I've come in handy.

You're right, judging by the outcome.

But what if you miss and hit us?
What are you going to do?

What are you doing?

Hey, the Ghost Fire is still on!

It's dangerous. Don't come near me...

Hey... what?

Kasubata?

You... touched the Ghost Fire?

The cursed flame that sucks
the life out of anything it touches.

Wait.

You're not dead.

I knew it. Look at that.

The bright red makeup is so photogenic.
- The wound from my Ghost Fire is raw.

In the spiritual world, the Yin Yang
dualism is an important concept.

If humans use a Ghost Account's ability,
the effect will be the exact opposite.

So... that means?

You're so slow.

Your Ghost Fire is harmless to us,
the living,

but it's a deadly poison
that can exterminate Ghost Accounts.

It's like using a healing spell
on an undead enemy in a game.

My flames aren't Ghost Fire?

They can make them wail and cry...

[Ghost Flame]

Ghost Flame!

That's so cool!

You think so?

Where are you? Don't keep me waiting!
- So, what are you going to do now?

I'm here to become stronger.

Isn't it foolish to run away
when such an opportunity presents itself?

Don't be ridiculous.

That's an intermediate Ghost Account!

Why force a fight when you don't have
a chance of winning?

You'd better come out
while I'm still patient.

If we have a chance of winning...

Of course we'll fight.
Isn't it a no-brainer? You piece of trash.

Excuse me.

Is Urusugawa going to be okay?

Don't worry, she won't die that easily.

How dare you tarnish my 'photogenic'!

Come out, you brats!

I'll make your death photogenic!

Looking for me?

Enishiro, your Ghost Fire...

No, your Ghost Flame will nullify
that thing's regeneration.

You'll make an opening.

Then I'll...

Rampage Hammer!

What a horrible personality.

As expected from a fellow
attack-type cyberkinesis user.

Shut up and just burn her,
you flaming idiot.

Enishiro!

I'm... I'm fine.

Just a graze, but it's too powerful...

I can't take it anymore!

I won't be satisfied until I make you look
the most photogenic!

That's right. First, I'll dismember
the three of you while you're still alive.

Then I'll reassemble you all
and hang you outside this building.

Blood and flesh ornaments,
the most photogenic art.

Inspiration is flowing!

So... so scary.

[Iconic Episode: 10 Bullies vs. Me]
It reminds me of...

[Iconic Episode: 10 Bullies vs. Me]
that buzzing in my head

[Aoringo Picking a Fight with a g*ng of Bullies]
when I'm fighting.

[Aoringo Picking a Fight with a g*ng of Bullies]
Goosebumps from my seemingly burning skin.

You piece of trash!

Stuffing two men's heads
into that little girl's crotch.

This will definitely be the most
"photogenic" look in history.

It'll surely be even more "photogenic"
than disfiguring that girl...

[Yami Ichigo Union's
livestream has started.]

More "photogenic"!

Too fast! I can't hit it!

Oh, no!

You're first!

Damn it!

Yami Ichigo Union's livestream
starts on time today.

Hey, everyone, it's Kureha.
- The livestream has already started.

I always watch the livestream on time
and I'm the first to comment.

If my idol forgets me, how will
you take responsibility, you jerk?

Tell me!

Urusugawa!

Little girl!

I can't move!

You jerks, k*ll her!

Is that all you've got? I'll tear
this slime apart with my bare hands!

We received a donation right away.
Thank you!

"Kureha's Beloved"? What a funny name.

What?

The comment says she'll definitely get
front row seats at the next show, Kureha.

Thanks!

Who are you?

Don't you dare try to seduce
my idol, you scumbag!

Amazing!

Urusugawa's personality
is quite awful too!

Look who's talking!

I can't believe you're enjoying
a situation like this!

You jerks!

It seems I'm the only normal one.

Don't be ridiculous!

Then let's just say...

all three of us have
crappy personalities, okay?

Don't use such vulgar words!

If it's an intermediate, we'll have
to send in second-year students.

I didn't expect the Intelligence Division
to make a mistake.

If we drag this out, it'll be too late.

[Intermediate Ghost Account Detected.]
Running into an intermediate Ghost Account

[Immediate Reinforcement Requested. ]
on his first mission?

Is Enishiro lucky,

or should I say extremely unlucky?

Reinforcements haven't arrived yet.

Aoringo is in a fix!

Seriously? Isn't that bad news?

They wouldn't confront the Ghost Account
head-on, would they?

It's certainly possible
with those three together.

No, no, no. The difference
in power is too great.

Honestly, you're a bit excited too,
aren't you?

No, I'm not!

Honestly, I am a bit excited.

You're actually excited?

An "enflaming" type.

A "bashing" type.

A "clingy" type.

Spare me...

What happens when the three exorcists
with the worst personalities...

in the three major troublesome
exorcist types team up?

No way.

Photogenic...

I can't believe I was defeated
by these unphotogenic brats.

Wait...

Aren't I super photogenic now
that I'm fading away?

Did it work?

Yes, we successfully exorcised it.

I... I almost died.

It hurts... This is the worst.

That was exhilarating.

No...

Disgusting.

Admit it.

That's who you really are.

Is that so...

It's true that I'm doing this for Akari.

But deep down,

[Account Balance]
I'm also venting

some sort of pent-up emotion.

I am actually enjoying it.

I'm such a scumbag.

You really are a scumbag.

A huge piece of trash.

But the more you are like that,
the better you are as a spirit medium.

There are plenty of people
who give up after their first mission.

At least you know you're a scumbag.

That alone is much better
than that self-proclaimed righteous scum.

What did you say?

You guys...

Do you want some sweet potato fries?

We'll start team training
as soon as we get back.

I won't go easy on you, so be prepared.

Okay!

All right! Mission accomplished!

Oh, my. The merchandise is all in tatters.

We're in tatters too.

I'm so lonely.
- Oh, no! Got to comment on the livestream!

You're the most injured,
yet you're still so energetic. Amazing.

I'm so lonely.

I feel sorry for the people
who were attacked by Kirika.

Those were resellers who ignored
evacuation orders and hid.

They brought it upon themselves.

Seriously?

I'm so lonely.

What? Why are you talking
about loneliness?

I'm so lonely.

Another Ghost Account has been eliminated.

How lonely.

You are...
