Shin: Wait, why?!
Shin: The culprits were the extremist religious cult of Dekobokkoism,
Shin: who declared that those who didn't remain faithful to their new gender
Shin: would be subject to divine punishment,
Shin: and tried to force us to adopt their beliefs as our state religion.
Shin: Because of the now-pointlessly-pretty Takarazuka Revue gorilla,
Shin: we ended up catching their attention
Shin: and getting surrounded.
Shin: That's when the Shinsengumi- turned-Cunsengumi showed up.

Gin: One of them looks like a pig to me.
Gin: Looks like Tokyo X.
Shin: What on Earth is Tokyo X?
Gin: A branded breed of pig from Tokyo.
Tokyo X,Sign: Farm
Shin: No, that's not a pig! It's a demon!

Names,Sign: Tokyo-X-Shiro (F)
Hij: Who are you calling X-Shiro?!
Oki: Calm down, Tenshiro-san.
Hij: What do you mean, Tenshiro?!
Hij: Why'd it become a Roman numeral?!
Oki: Give her a break, boss.
Oki: The moment Tenshiro-san became a woman,
Oki: all of the mayonnaise calories he'd accumulated came bursting out,
Oki: leaving him in this state.
Hij: As if turning into a woman wasn't bad enough!
Hij: Why am I the only one who looks like this?!
Kon: Don't worry, Tenko.
Kon: We're all in the same situation.
Kon: All of the gorilla I'd accumulated came bursting out, too.
Kon: Despite how I look, my ass hair is running rampant.

Shin: Hey!
Shin: What are you doing, you bunch of drag queens?!
Shin: Is this really the time for that?!
D: If you intend to stand in our way,
D: we will eliminate you along with the heretics.
Kon: Unfortunately, you're the heretics in our eyes.
Kon: We won't let you have your way in this town any longer!
Kon: You...
Kon: ...damn heretics!
Kon: No need to worry, Dekobokkoists.
Kon: If anyone dares to defy Lord Dekobokko,
Kon: we, the Cunsengumi, shall throw them in jail!
Shin: Don't tell me, you guys...
Oki: Sorry, but we came to protect this town from heretics like you.
Oki: The government's already making moves to adopt Dekobokkoism as the state religion.
Shin: N-No way!
Oki: So basically, we were sent here to crack down on heretics who defy the state religion.
Kon: If you can't understand how wonderful those teachings are,
Kon: I feel so sorry for you.

M: Hacking complete.
M: Now the surveillance cameras in this area shouldn't pose a problem.
Kon: Good.
Gin: What's going on here?
Kon: It's as you see.
Kon: They've taken over all the surveillance cameras in this town.
Kon: Try anything funny like you did earlier,
Kon: and they'll come after you immediately.
Kon: If we'd gotten into a big fight back there,
Kon: all of Earth would've ended up like the Kabuki District.
Gin: What's your point?
Oki: If you keep up your moronic acts, we won't be able to cover for you.
Gin: Just so we're clear, what happened back there was
Gin: because your moronic chief defecated outdoors—
Kon: It wasn't outdoor defecation! It was a freedom fly-away du—
Gin: It was outdoor defecation, wasn't it?
Jyu: Were you people tailing that cult before all this happened?
Hij: We received intel that a religious group on the interspace wanted lists
Hij: was planning to make contact with Earth.
Hij: While we managed to figure out that they'd set up base in this town,
Hij: we didn't expect them to use "God" this early in the game.
Hij: That's why we ended up in this mess, too.
Jyu: "God"?
Hij: There's a satellite orbiting Earth way up in space.
Hij: That's what the "God" they worship really is.
Hij: To further their doctrine, the Dekobokkoists were researching
Hij: a drug that could manipulate the human body's hormone balance.
Hij: In other words, a drug that could make men more manly, and women more feminine.
Hij: But they ended up creating something unexpected in the process:
Hij: the virus that's infecting us right now.
Jyu: A drug that turns humans into pigs?!
Hij: That's not what I said!
Hij: Their radical missionary work bordering on terrorism began only after that.
Hij: Indeed.
Hij: That light was no divine judgment.
Hij: It was a hormone-reversing virus fired by an attack satellite.
Hij: In the end, this mess was entirely the doing of filthy humans.
Jyu: But why would they turn you into a filthy pig, of all things?
Hij: Who are you calling a filthy pig?
Hij: The bakufu has quarantined this town,
Hij: but the virus itself doesn't last long in the air.
Hij: What's more, it's basically not contagious at all.
Jyu: So Tae-chan won't get infected and turn into Shimura Tae-X?
Jyu: That's a relief.
Tae: Jyubei-san,
Tae: thanks for your concern.
Hij: The question is how to stop that satellite
Hij: and get our hands on the vaccine to return our bodies to normal.
Hij: It's unlikely we can stop the satellite, though.
Hij: Apparently it has a system where
Hij: it'll automatically fire the virus at Earth the moment it detects any irregularities.
Hij: There's nothing we can do.
Gin: So you're saying we have to strike the cult directly to fix things?
Jyu: And we're the only ones who can do that? With these bodies?
Hij: Yeah.
Hij: We have to slip through their surveillance, find their base,
Hij: and take them all out before they press the switch of destruction.
Hij: If it's even possible to pull such a stunt, that is.
Shin: No way! That's impossib—
Kag: Oh, it is possible.
Kag: No matter how powerful Wei may be,
Kag: if Wu and Shu work together,

Shin: Also, aren't you supposed to be in Cao Cao's camp?!
Gin: Well, if it's a way to return my body to normal, I'll take it.
Gin: I'd even take a pig's help right now.
Hij: The hell's that supposed to mean?
Oki: Oh, all right.
Oki: But if you prove useless, we'll leave you behind.
Oki: You'd better not drag your piggy feet.
Hij: Can't you damn sadists talk without adding "pig" to everything?!
Kon: All right!
Kon: From here on, we're comrades-in-arms!
Kon: To celebrate our alliance...
Kon: Prepare a pig roast!
Kon: Let's share the Oath of the Pig Garden!
Pig,Sign: Oath of the Pig Garden
Hij: We're back to this?!
Hij: First, we have to take care of the surveillance set up all over the place.
Hij: As it stands, we can't make any moves.
Hij: We'll go around connecting this to every camera we find.
Hij: It'll hack into the camera and start looping a previously recorded video.
Hij: Listen up.
Hij: If they notice us, everything will be ruined.
Hij: Be as natural as possible,
Hij: try your best not to defy their teachings,
Hij: and act feminine.
Hij: Let's go, girls.
Hij: Hey! Soko, Ginko!
Hij: Why don't we hit up a cafe for some mayo bowl—
Gin: There are no girls like that.
Hij: Wh-What was that for, Ginko?
Hij: That retort was too violent. Aren't you a girl?
Gin: Sorry, Tenko!
Gin: But it was your fault for talking about mayo bowls after you said you'd go on a diet!
Hij: R-Right.
Hij: Girls diet all year round, don't they?
Gin: Yeah!
Gin: You always go off to take in more calories the moment your mind wanders.
Gin: Come, let's enjoy this Uji Gintoki bowl togeth—
Hij: There are no girls like that, either.
Gin: What was that for, Tenko?
Gin: Don't you know that all girls love sweets?
Hij: That's no sweet! It's a sweet monster!
Hij: A calorie monster!
Gin: You're the calorie monster here!
Gin: As you can see, I have a nice body,
Gin: so I don't need a diet.
Hij: You? A nice body?
Hij: Don't make me laugh.
Hij: A nice body is a glamorous one with a bit of meat on the bone, Ginko.
Gin: Yours is grotesque if anything, Tenko.
Hij: Don't get too cocky just because you're slim.
Hij: Mark my words, I'll be cuter than you when I lose weight.
Gin: Please. My Ginko's definitely cuter,
Gin: has bigger boobs, and is willing to do all kinds of perverted stuff.
Hij: If I were a guy, I'd stay far away from a bitch like you.
Hij: I'd definitely go for Tenko!
Gin: Okay, fine, you assh*le!
Gin: Wanna compete and see who's more popular with the guys?
Hij: Bring it!

Ymz: What kind of HS girl is that?!
Kag: Hopelessly Skint.
Ymz: That wasn't funny!
Tae: I hope Ginko-san and the others are handling this all right.
Jyu: The Shinsengumi are with them. I'm sure they'll be fine.
Tae: It's the Shinsengumi I'm worried about, though.
Tae: Anyway, acting feminine to pretend they're following the teachings?
Tae: This might be inappropriate, but I could learn a lot from this.
Tae: I usually never think about that kind of stuff.
Jyu: T-Tae-chan,
Jyu: you're fine as you are.
Jyu: You're plenty feminine already.
Jyu: There's no need for you to change,
Jyu: and I don't want you to, either.

Jyu: I was the one who triggered this mess.
Jyu: Cleaning it up is my duty and responsibility.
Jyu: So why is this situation—
Jyu: Why is being a man
Jyu: making me feel a tiny bit of joy?
Jyu: I know that this isn't the time or place.
Jyu: However, I can avert my eyes no longer!
Jyu: I mean,
Jyu: as a man, I'm free to date Tae-chan!
Shin: Lovers?
Kon: That might be a good idea.
Shin: But...
Shin: Wouldn't siblings pretending to be lovers start some weird rumors?
Shin: What do you think, Kondo-san?

Jyu: Honestly, I'm not sure we can deal with them all.

Wha—
