[tires screeching]

-What the hell is that?
-[gasps]

[uneasy music playing]

[Fujita] Mr. En is dead.

All the mushrooms created by his Magic
have begun to rot away.

And because of that,
now the entire world knows he's gone.

[frantic electronic music playing]

[lyrics in Japanese]

THE BEGINNING

[music fades]

[gradually intensifying warbling]

[gasps]

CHAOS SHOCK

[Fujita] After I lost consciousness,
the mansion was plunged into chaos.

Shin and Noi noticed something was wrong
and came back,

but it was already too late.

Whoever the m*rder*r was,
he escaped through the air duct.

He took Mr. En's head with him.

Shin followed the trail of blood,

but the culprit's tracks ended abruptly
inside the mansion.

[g*ons sobbing]

[Fujita] In the end,
the m*rder*r got away without a trace.

-[gasps]
-[Ebisu snickering]

Ebisu tried looking for Kikurage
with treats in hand.

[Fujita] That's right.
Kikurage has also disappeared.

Chota has too.

Even Nikaido has vanished.

Ebisu was laughing as always,

but for some reason,
she looked very lonely.

Shin and the others asked me several times
about the headless man

and the culprit
who ran off with Mr. En's head,

but no matter how hard
I tried to remember,

the blackness of that duct

was too terrifying.

I don't want to remember!

It felt like somehow,
everything fell apart in an instant.

[footsteps fading]

[reporter] The effects of Mr. En's death
have been felt in every region.

CHAOS SPREADS EVERYWHERE

The Magic World,
which he ruled with his immense power,

has lost its leader.

The chaos is expected to spread…

-[knocking on door]
-Hmm?

Is that you, Noi? Come on in.

Hey. You got a moment to talk?

SCOOP: MR. EN'S m*rder
UNMASKING THE k*ller

Look, Shin,

to tell you the truth, I hated En.

He used my Magic for his own convenience
ever since I was just a little kid,

and he was always so arrogant about it.

So no, I'm not sad
that mushroom freak is dead.

However, without him around,

the mansion is getting
completely out of control.

Nobody here is cooking.
Nobody is cleaning. Nobody is working!

Now who's supposed to take
the Cross-Eyes down?

Guess everyone got scared and ran away.

You don't have to love the guy, Noi,

but it's thanks to Mr. En
that this world was somewhat decent.

Hey, Shin, do you think
it was the Cross-Eyes' boss who k*lled En?

Yeah it probably was.

Fujita said he felt
the same physical discomfort.

Most likely, it's the same guy
who fought En six years ago.

Fine! Then let's hunt him down
and get En's head back.

We can revive him!

We could… if we had Kikurage,
but she's still missing.

Yeah, but still,

Kikurage, Chota and Nikaido,
all three of them might still be alive.

Huh?

Come on, Shin.
Are you just gonna sit there, or what?

[Shin] Me? I'm a cleaner.

I'm going to do the job I was hired to do.

I'm gonna find this guy and k*ll him.

I'm getting excited already.

[giggles] Shin, you're a genius!
That's already in our job description!

[squeals excitedly] I forgot.

[gasps, relieved chuckling]

I got so tired thinking about
all the little details! [chuckling]

-I think I'll take a quick nap.
-Go back to your own room.

Excuse me.

-[gasps]
-Am I interrupting?

-[Shin] It's not what it looks like!
-Hello.

-[Shin] Oh, Turkey.
-[Turkey] It's been a while.

[Asu] Nikaido.

Nikaido.

Nikaido!

Kawajiri… Big bro.

[gasps] Caiman.

Hey, Caiman.

I'm Aikawa. You've got the wrong guy.

[gasps]

-I'm a Sorcerer, just like you.
-[Nikaido gasps]

You're wrong. I gave it up!

I gave up Magic!

It's because of my power.

I'm sorry, Yakumo! [gasps]

[tense music playing]

-[bubbling]
-[panting]

[Yakumo] Nikaido,
I've always been a very lucky girl.

Do you know why?

[Nikaido whimpering, panting]

Yakumo!

[music fades]

[gasps, sobbing]

It's all my fault.

If I hadn't used Magic… [sobs]

[creaking]

BLACK BOX

Where am I?

Did I come here
because of this square thing?

I don't even know which button does what.

What a piece of junk!

Tell me where I am!

Huh?

I know this river…

[Nikaido gasps]

It's my grandparents!

Grandma! Grandpa!

Who are you calling "Grandma"?

-I'm not that old.
-[grandpa] Whose kid is this?

Huh? Oh, but, Grandpa, I'm Nikaido!

[grandpa] I don't know you.

Sorry little girl. We just happened
to be taking a walk around here.

[Nikaido] Grandpa and Grandma
are acting different than usual.

Could this be sometime in the past?

In that case,
is this what my Magic can do?

[uneasy music playing]

[Nikaido] You won't believe it, big bro.

Today, I went into the past
by using that weird box.

I even met Grandpa and Grandma there
when they were young.

-[grandma] Hmm?
-[grandpa] Hmm?

[all laughing]

Oh, Nikaido,
time manipulation magic is just a myth.

It doesn't exist.

[grandpa] Don't lie, Nikaido.

[Nikaido] I'm not lying!

Oh, wait.

Where's Yakumo?

Yakumo?

[grandpa] What do you mean by "Yakumo"?

[Nikaido] Huh?

[water lapping]

[Nikaido] Why is everyone pretending
they don't know Yakumo?

It's like she never existed at all.

[Yakumo] When I was a baby,
I floated down this river.

Our grandparents just happened
to be passing by and picked me up.

Oh…

[Yakumo] If they had looked away
for even a second,

I would've probably stayed in the water!

-[gasping]
-[uneasy music playing]

-[Nikaido sobbing]
-[mournful music playing]

[Nikaido gasps]

[whimpering, panting]

Yakumo!

[gasps]

[dramatic music playing]

AN UNNAMED SOUL LIES HERE

-[Asu] Nikaido!
-[Nikaido gasps]

Kawajiri. Big bro…

[Asu] This is a town about


While I was waiting for you to wake,

I purchased some healing smoke
and healed both of our wounds.

Wow, thanks, Asu.

My arms and legs are all back to normal.

Hang on. Wait.

But why did the healing smoke
start working now?

I thought the mushrooms in my body…

He was k*lled?

No way! How is it possible that En…?

Do you think it was Caiman?

Who knows? Your guess is as good as mine.

But word on the street is
that the Cross-Eyes k*lled him.

The Cross-Eyes?

I don't know if it's Caiman or Aikawa,
but if you wanna find him, I'll help you.

Okay, Asu. Thanks.

That reminds me, you talk in your sleep.

In the middle of a nightmare,
you called me Kawajiri.

I don't think I ever told you my name.

And you said
I saved your life a long time ago.

I wonder if this has
something to do with your Magic?

Do you happen to remember
way back when we first met?

I was just about to enter
the final stage of the Devil Exam.

The last few days of the exam
are purposely set

to coincide with the Blue Night.

-[gasps]
-[grunts]

[gasps]

[Asu] All sorts of people were hunting me
in order to become my partner.

I couldn't use Magic
until the exam was over.

So, as you can imagine, I was on edge.

And that was the day

when the two of us first met.

For some reason,
you wouldn't leave my side.

And later that day…

[struggling grunts]

What now?
You gonna use Magic to save yourself?

Or give up on the Devil Exam
and make us your partners?

[strains] Like I'd ever make a contract
with you guys.

-Huh?
-[Nikaido yelling]

[pained grunt]

-[Nikaido grunts, yells]
-Huh? Oof!

-What?
-Go, get out of here!

[thug 2] Not so fast! [grunts]

Thanks to you saving me,
I was able to go on and become a Devil.

I went to thank you
after I became a Devil,

but you had already started thinking
about living in the Hole.

By using my Devil powers,

I learned that your Magic had
something to do with time.

I know you've always refused
to use your abilities,

Long ago they took
something very precious to you.

But you aren't
that scared little child anymore.

Use your Magic, Nikaido.

Use your Magic
and take back what was taken from you.

No, I can't… I can't do that, Asu.

My Magic is more dangerous than you know.

Besides, I'm the reason
you were turned back into a Sorcerer.

[chuckles softly] You're the reason
I could become a Devil in the first place.

I don't mind it.
I'd give up being a Devil for you any day.

Asu…

I'm going to take back what I lost.

[Kasukabe] Ever since that En guy died,

mansion security has been
pretty understaffed,

hasn't it, Johnson?

[Jonson chitters]

We still haven't found the room
where they summon Devils.

-[Jonson growling]
-[gasps] What wrong, Jonson?

-[Jonson yells]
-Huh?

Good evening, Doctor.

Oh, Haru? You turned back into a Sorcerer?

[Haru laughing evilly]

[growls]

[both] Pretty surprising.
It was a huge success.

[Kasukabe and Jonson gasp]

[Kasukabe] What are you talking about?

I wanted it to be
a surprise for you, Hayes.

[Devil] Both of us are the real me.

[Haru] Although, it is dangerous.
If I stay out for too long, I'll die.

[both] That's no bueno.

I feel more at ease in this form anyway.

[Kasukabe] Devils are amazing.

[Haru and Devil] Obviously.
We're invincible.

I'd love to dissect you some time.

[Devil and Haru laugh] Oh, Doctor,
you always did have the silliest ideas.

[dramatic music playing]

[Devil chuckling]

To celebrate our reunion properly,

why don't I sing you
one of my original songs?

Huh?

HUMANS
BY HARU

♪ Tiny, inferior creatures
That's what humans are ♪

♪ I eat them when I'm hungry
But they're not tasty ♪

♪ So lame when scared ♪

♪ They live 90 years at most
Ah, too funny ♪

[music stops#]

[chuckling]

That's just a little number about humans.

I'm really into singing
about my true feelings lately.

[Kasukabe] Uh, anyway,

I was looking for you.
I wanted to ask for your help.

Will you come back with me to the mansion?

[Devil and Haru] Don't be in such a hurry.

There's still plenty of time
for you to see my special trick.

You know, you've changed a bit.

[Turkey blowing]

I figured this time around,

we should make the doll
using the fastest baking method available.

Although, I never thought I'd be asked
to make a doll of Mr. En like this…

I hope this will eventually help us
catch the person who k*lled him.

You can leave that part to us.

Make us the best doll you got, Turkey.
-[Ebisu giggling]

[jaunty music playing]

[Turkey] To begin,

cut the cheese, vegetables,
and salami to the ideal thickness.

[Ebisu laughing]

[Turkey] Choose a dough
that has been fermented to perfection,

lightly flour it,
and roll it into a circle.

Next, stretch it out and make it even.

Cover the dough
with a generous spread of tomato sauce,

put the toppings on,
and sprinkle powdered cheese.

Finally, take the smoke
that most embodies Mr. En,

infuse it into this oil can,

and pour it over the dough.

That all goes in the oven.

[flames crackling]

[Turkey] All that's left
is to wait for it to bake.

You know, I've been thinking.

If we follow this doll,

it's likely we're gonna have to
fight the Cross-Eyes again.

Ugh, what's taking them so long?

Sounds like you don't remember
the way they worked us over

back in the Hydra Forest, then, Noi.

Of course I remember.

They attacked the part
that stops you from producing smoke.

That's exactly my point,

but this time,
Kasukabe pinpointed the smoke's location

to work out the places
they're likely to target

[Noi] Why, that little nerd…

-[Turkey] It should be done baking soon.
-[Ebisu giggling]

[oven dings]

[sizzling]

-Let's cut him out from the dough.
-[giggling] Pizza butt!

[laughing hysterically]

The doll is finished.

Soon it will begin
making its way back to the corpse.

The lower part of Mr. En's body
is down in the morgue.

Is there a chance that it could go there?

[Turkey] No need to worry.

The doll specifically reacts
to the tumor in the head.

[goon 1 grunts]

-[gasps] Whoa, he's already moving out!
-[Shin] Follow him!

[Noi grunts]

[Turkey] Oh, Mr. En,

how nice it would be
to see the real you one more time…

[suspenseful music playing]

This thing really is a doll.

Sure, it looks like En,
but you can really see the flaws up close.

I'll say. He's Mr. En
but without his mushrooms or Kikurage.

Didn't think it'd be so sad
to watch him wander around.

-Huh? Oh, everyone's here!
-Uh, uh, Fujita!

[whimpering] En? E…

[Noi] Wait. It's a doll!

[Ebisu laughing hysterically]

Oh, brother…

-Hey, Shin, the doll's gone!
-[Shin] What?!

[Shin and Noi breathing heavily]

[dramatic music playing]

Wait, the doll of Mr. En
can use the Broom?

-[Noi] Hey!
-Huh?

Hurry, jump on!

[dramatic music continues]

[Shin] We'll lose sight of him
at this rate!

[Noi] Why do we store that Broom
with so much smoke in the tank?

You keep chasing him on this.
I'll get ahead of him from the roof.-

[Noi] Got it!

[Shin grunting]

[yells]

Damn it, he's so fast! [grunts]

This should slow him down…

Take that!

That was good thinking, Noi.

[grunts]

[grunts]

[steady beep, dwindling beep]

[Noi chuckling] Yes!
All right, we got him!

[Shin sighs]

Oh brother.

[dramatic music playing]

I was very surprised
when I heard the news that En had died.

Do you really think
it was actually the boss who k*lled him?

Who else would run off with En's head?
It had to be the boss!

We'll be fine.

If something happens,

we got plenty of healing smoke
right here with us.

[Tetsujo] I was worried
when Dokuga k*lled the Shaitan guys,

but now that En's dead,
we don't have to worry about being found.

Is that great timing or what?

I'm telling you,
the boss is coming back right now!

Dokuga, are you sure
you know where to find him?

I have an idea.

[music fades]

[phone ringing]

[phone ringing]

[phone ringing]

-[flies buzzing]
-[phone ringing]

[phone ringing]

[phone ringing]

INCOMING CALL

-[outgoing call tone, phone picks up]
-[gasps]

-[Dokuga] Boss?
-What?!

I called over and over again.

Where were you?

Boss, is that you?

It's me, Ushishimada, remember?

So was it really you who k*lled En, Boss?

[Saji] Is the boss there?
What's he saying?

[all talking over each other]

CALL ENDED

-[all moaning]
-He hung up.

[dial tone beeping]

[Ushishimada] Was that really
the boss just now?

What do you think Dokuga?

[gasps]

-Dokuga!
-Oh, dear.

We should just get going.

[tense music playing]

[Shin] Is Mr. En's head really
somewhere in this run-down building?

Don't forget,
probably the Cross-Eyes' boss too.

I can finally give that b*stard
some payback. [chuckling]

All right!

Hmm?

What's the matter, Shin? Something wrong?

It feels kinda like
there's been somebody watching me lately.

-Huh?
-No, it's fine. Forget it.

This is it.
I think it's that room up there.

[all gasp]

Is that… the boss?

[tense music continues]

[elevator dings]

[music intensifies]

-[music fades]
-[gasps] This room?

Oh man, the boss is inside!

[Dokuga] Someone's in there.
I'm sure of it.

[all gasp]

[Saji] What do we do?

[Ushishimada] Uh…
let's try opening it, yeah?

[Tetsujo] No, no,
we should ring the intercom.

[all gasp]

[chuckling gleefully]

-[dramatic music playing]
-Well, well, well.

Whoa! Look who's here!

We found the b*stards!

[gasps] It's the En family cleaners!

[Shin laughing menacingly]

[music fades]

[Japanese theme song playing]

THE END

[narrator] What we learned in Episode 20.

Turns out a lot of things
were made with En's Magic.

Haru loves to sing.

Asu is loyal to Nikaido.

What we're going to learn in Episode 21,
it's still… lost in chaos.

This is Dorohedoro!
