01x11 - The Boss/See You at the Food Stall

[bunniefuu]

I'll let you choose what gets busted.

Your brains? Your heart?

Get him, Mr. Shin!

He's with the lizard guy.

You're dead, Worms!

Hey, are you that doctor from the Hole?

It's me, remember?

Oh, you.

It's been so long.

What are you doing here?

Come on, Mr. Shin! Hurry up and--

No can do, Fujita.

He saved my life.

-He saved your life?

-Shocking!

Today is just too much.

THE BEGINNING

What's taking that broad so long?

I'm here.

Did you call for me, Mr. Chota?

Here, have some tea.

Thank you.

Do you like my poisoned tea?

Why are you so mean to me?

As En's Partner, you'll always come

face-to-face with danger.

You don't know anything

about En or the family, right?

So I asked you over today

to show you this movie.

It's an autobiographical non-fiction movie

produced by, written by, directed by,

and starring En.

The Boss, Death Mushrooms.

CHAPTER ONE

HELL

When I awoke,

I was surrounded by mushrooms.

It seems I'd turned my own parents

into mushrooms.

I survived on the mushrooms

growing around me.

Before long, a stranger came to my house.

Probably a thief.

The man found me and took me away.

I was sold to a filthy rundown factory.

This is your home now.

SAFETY FIRS

Life there was hell.

The factory was run

by low-ranking Sorcerers.

They kidnapped mid-ranking and

high-ranking Sorcerers.

They forced them to release smoke,

which they sold for a profit.

In those days,

lots of people were doing that.

TAKAGI MILK COFFEE

NINE YEARS LATER

I was forced to work there for nine years,

until I ran out of smoke

and was thrown into a river.

A Devil found me and thought I was dead.

It threw me down into hell.

But I didn't die, even amid the hellfire.

My anger kept my soul alive,

impervious to those eternal flames.

TWO YEARS LATER

Chidaruma, that's him.

What? Unbelievable.

A Sorcerer, alive in hell.

I'm Chidaruma. Who are you?

They named me En.

SIX MONTHS LATER

I returned to that rundown factory.

Come on, make more smoke!

I destroyed the factory and welcomed

the enslaved Sorcerers as my brethren.

I'm Tenjin. Thank you for saving me.

Let me repay you.

I'm En.

I want to rid the world

of filth like them.

Will you help me?

That was how the family was born.

Our numbers grew,

and those scumbags began to fear us

as their number diminished.

CHAPTER TWO

THE ENEMY

Twenty years or so passed.

En, have you heard?

About those strange murders

happening recently?

Yeah. They're k*lling people

and taking their heads.

I heard they've only been targeting

powerful Sorcerers.

Let's crush those guys, Boss.

Leave that to us. Right, senpai?

It's disgusting,

taking the head like that.

Boss!

They got three of our guys!

Boss I saw him

The guy had crosses over his eyes

Crosses over his eyes

I did what I could, but my men fell victim

to the Cross-Eyes one after another.

Damn it!

I'll act as bait and lure him out!

Calm down, Noi.

That's how all the others got k*lled.

Mr. Tenjin will track down

where the Cross-Eyes lives.

Let's lay low till then.

It's me. Tenjin?

I found him, En.

He lives in an apartment in Mastema.

Send Shin and Noi over.

So, here it is.

Let's go, senpai!

Don't let your guard down.

Another headless corpse.

It's not Mr. Tenjin, is it?

Mr. Tenjin! I'm glad you're okay.

Meanwhile,

I was making my own way to Mastema.

I trusted that Shin and Noi

would dispose of him.

But my instinct, that had lead me

through many tough situations,

whispered in my heart

that something awful might happen.

These masks.

They're definitely Shin and Noi's.

They told me later that they'd felt

a strangeness they'd never felt before

when they laid eyes on the Cross-Eyes.

Noi!

I suppose it's our destiny

to die here together.

Shin, take this Broom

and get Noi away from here.

Mr. En!

I felt it the moment I saw the man.

That he was the enemy.

That I would have no future

unless I defeated him.

The next thing I knew,

I was surrounded by countless mushrooms.

There was nobody in sight,

nothing but a chilling silence.

The man had destroyed my mask

with his knife.

I had a slight cut on my throat

to prove it.

My smoke had engulfed the entire city,

turning everything into mushrooms.

That's the truth behind

the Mushrooms of Death incident.

I was sure that I'd turned

the Cross-Eyes into a mushroom.

However

I saw it.

A headless man,

disappearing through a doorway.

What a good movie.

Do you understand the family history now?

But according to Noi, this movie

has been dramatized quite a bit.

A masterpiece, isn't it?

-En, when did you get here?

-This movie is unfinished and unreleased,

because I still need to add

that I defeated the Cross-Eyes.

The reason I was searching for

a Sorcerer who can control time

is to go back to that day six years ago.

I want to determine if

the Cross-Eyes is dead or alive,

and discover the truth behind all this.

Cross-Eyes Headless

That's just like how I first met Caiman.

LET'S MEET AT THE FOOD STAND

What's with the hood, Mr. Caiman?

It's nothing.

Nikaido, it's probably my fault

that that En guy got you.

So I'll save you, no matter what.

Restaurant Tanba, right?

That's right.

We're going to make some big money here.

You said you had three staff members.

He's a new part-timer--

I'm Tanba's wife.

We got married three days ago.

What?

Why, congratulations. What's your name?

My name is Pieman.

Pie "man"? But you're a girl.

Fine, whatever. Go on in.

-Wear these passes where we can see them.

-Okay.

Wow, there's a whole town

in the castle grounds!

This is it, huh? Not too shabby!

Huh?

What's with that van?

It's in the way. Move it, beast.

Did you just call me a beast?

Stop right there.

That's my van.

Great to see you again, Mr. Tanba.

What?! You!

Who's that?

She used to work with us

before you started.

What are you doing here, Asuka?

I started a new shop. A pie shop.

What?!

You stole Restaurant Tanba's recipe?

Come on, Fukuyama. I'm no thief.

I just referred to it.

Who are you?

I'm his newly-wed wife.

His wife!?

You?

She had feelings for Mr. Tanba,

but he didn't care for her, so she quit.

My, how pathetic!

Shut up!

You're huge

Are you really a woman?

Anyway, you're our rival now.

But you're not going to get much business

as long as I'm around.

Haven't you heard?

Whoever sells most at lunch tomorrow

gets to keep this spot.

What?

Then victory is ours.

You seem confident. What if I win?

I'll close up my shop

and come work for you.

Game on.

We must be careful.

-Come on, you know she can't cook.

-Darling.

May I go take a look around the grounds?

Yeah, right! Get to work.

Go get the food that's been delivered

to the South Gate.

You're such a controlling husband!

Whoa! Where am I?

Good for you, Jonson.

So, what are you guys going to do?

I want to save Nikaido.

No, you'd better return to the Hole

right away.

I really owe you one.

But if you're with the lizard,

we're enemies.

-Yeah, I get what you're saying.

-Hey.

I'm saying that

I'm letting you off the hook.

Stay away from the lizard guy.

You're telling me

to mind my own business, right?

But look.

Thanks to me not doing that ten years ago,

you and I are both alive right now.

Don't you agree?

Right, Vaux?

Uh, um Maybe?

Is saving people

a hobby of yours or something?

Saving people?

Nah, I'm only interested in research.

You haven't changed a bit.

Mr. Caiman.

Look at this.

It's the En family newsletter.

What? The Boss's top five

favorite mushrooms?

No, up here!

Huh? Why?

Why is Nikaido in the newsletter?

Maybe she's being held here

against her will.

What's going on, Mr. Caiman? Mr. Caiman?

All right, we're ready to go.

Mr. Caiman is looking miserable.

Over a woman? The fool. Get to work!

Good morning, Mr. Tanba.

You two are such an adorable couple.

I already knew

Nikaido was a Sorcerer.

I just didn't want to accept it.

That Nikaido was lying to me

about being human.

Maybe there's no need for me

to save her anymore.

This is where she really belongs.

Maybe I should just keep quiet

and leave this place.

Yeah, that's what I'll do.

And I'll think it over alone and

Nikaido!

Come to the main square for lunch!

There'll be a pie showdown

between two shops.

The core members of the family

will be there as special judges.

Come join the battle

as one of the customers!

This way, Boss.

Okay. Let's go, Nikaido.

Nikaido

Hey, isn't that the girl--

Darling! We're going to beat

that Asuka woman, right? Come on.

Are you sure?

I'm positive.

Nikaido's looking better than I thought.

Maybe I didn't need

to come save her after all.

CURRY FLAVOR

Boss, 30 pies are out of the oven.

All right. Get ready for a long queue.

Look, here they come.

Come on, we're ready for you!

-There it is.

-Hurry!

-Give me Asuka's apple pie!

-I want three!

Don't push now.

There's plenty for everyone.

It's just gone noon, but it seems

we already know the winner.

Give me pie!

Have some tasty apple pie.

What a sweet, yummy smell.

Come have some of Asuka's pie.

I'm going to buy some.

-Bring me an apple pie.

-Me too.

You want something sweet

instead of a Meat Pie?

Mr. En wants something with no mushrooms?

Get me one too!

What should we do? Darling?

Shut up.

I'm going to go spy on her.

Fukuyama?

Hey!

It's shaped like a heart.

PIE SHOWDOWN JUDGES

I'd say it's so-so.

Nothing worth queueing for.

-Isn't Miss Asuka amazing?

-What?

Yeah, what a great girl.

I was just thinking the same thing.

I want to eat some more of her pies.

Wouldn't it make her happy

if we bought a lot?

Yeah? Think you can compete with me?

Let's go.

-I'm going for the meat instead!

-What's so great about that hussy?

What's taking Fukuyama so long?

-Huh?

-What is it?

Miss Asuka! Hire me!

If you buy more pies, I'll consider it.

-That traitor!

-Wait.

-I get it now. It's her Magic.

-Magic?

Miss Asuka, we need to prepare more pies.

Sure, okay.

Don't let anybody in here, okay?

FROZEN APPLE PIES

Angel, I need more pies.

Asuka's Magic summons

a monster named Angel.

She uses it to charm men.

She lures men in with the smoke

and then feeds them the pie.

Wow. So why aren't you affected?

She used her Magic so much on me,

I became immune.

But what about you?

I um

-Miss Asuka!

-Give me your pies!

Nikaido's alone.

Go.

This is your only chance.

But I can't leave the shop now

It's not like you're helping in any way.

What did you just say?!

Are you sure about this?

Yeah.

Sorry I couldn't be of much help.

Don't worry.

I haven't paid you a penny yet.

Oh yeah.

Nikaido!

Caiman? What are you doing here?

Come on, let's go.

Boss, I'll be back

to get my wages someday!

Yeah, if my restaurant is still open.

Pretty quiet over here, huh?

Give us two Meat Pies.

We're the judges.

Coming right up, ladies.

Fresh out of the oven.

Looks delicious!

The filling is venison and minced veal

marinated overnight

in wine and vegetables.

There's even

some diced foie gras in there!

-Delicious!

-Yummy!

Give me another! No, give me ten!

Miss Asuka, you're using too much Magic.

I'm fine. Angel, make more

Miss Asuka!

What were we doing?

Ugh, heartburn

Boss!

I'm sorry

Fukuyama! That means

Her Magic has run out, huh.

All right, we still have 15 minutes.

Yes, Boss!

Let me try some of yours.

I wish to try both

to give a fair judgment.

Mr. En. Coming right up.

Here.

I heard you only like mushrooms,

so I prepared

a special chanterelle pie for you.

Really? A chanterelle pie?

Delicious!

You win, Tanba.

Keep up the good work.

It was that easy?

I didn't know

you'd prepared that special pie.

Of course!

Damn you, Tanba. You'll pay for this!

But for now, let's get out of here.

They'll k*ll us if they find out

we used Magic on En.

Wait Caiman, where are you taking me?

Where? We're getting out of here.

I'm not going.

What?

I want to stay with En.

Nikaido

Okay then.

I don't know what's happened,

but if you won't come with me,

I'll have to force you to.

Try me.



What we learned in Episode 11.

En wasn't a cute baby.

En's castle is humongous.

Tanba's pies are delicious.

What we'll learn in Episode 12

is still hidden in chaos.

And that, is Dorohedoro.
