01x12 - AIM Burst

[bunniefuu]

Harumi: What would you know?!

Harumi: I would do anything to save those kids!

Harumi: I won't stop, even if it means turning the entire city against me!

Mikoto: Hey...

Kazari: What... is that?

Mikoto: A fetus?

Kuroko: It's no use.

Kuroko: All the cameras are down.

Kuroko: I can't reach her by phone either.

Mii: Hold it.

Kuroko: I can't just leave Onee-sama alone out there!

Mii: What can you do in that state?

Kuroko: But...

Mii: Have some faith in Misaka-san.

Mii: Knowing her, she'll surely...

Mikoto: A fetus?

Mikoto: Metamorphosis?(Well, I guess she does say "metamorphose", but that happens to be a verb. Effing Japanese )

Mikoto: I've never heard of such an ability...

Mikoto: What on earth?(Localization aside, this sounds so daft when taken literally. Idioms to the rescue ><)

Mikoto: It's getting bigger...

Kazari: Misaka-san!

Mikoto: Uiharu-san? Why are you...

Mikoto: Uiharu-san, are you all right?

Kazari: Yes.

Kazari: Um—

Mikoto: You shouldn't have come down here!

Kazari: I-I'm sorry!

Kazari: But—

Mikoto: Stay where you are!

Mikoto: I don't really know what's going on, but if it's looking for a fight—

Mikoto: It's not coming after me?

Mikoto: Is it just lashing out blindly?

Kazari: It's almost as if it's in pain...

asdf: What's happening?

fdsa: The patients suddenly started thrashing around!

asdf: Have they regained consciousness?

fdsa: No. They were sleeping just now, when they all simultaneously—

asdf: Simultaneously?!

fdsa: The other patients are all exhibiting the same symptoms.

fdsa: They haven't regained consciousness; rather, it's as if they're being tormented by some fell dream.

asdf: What on earth is going on?

rofl: Hey, what is that?

: Stand back!

lmao: A monster?

omfg: Some kind of biological w*apon?

Aiho: We have no choice but to do this with those of us who can still stand.

Aiho: You have permission to use live amm*nit*on.

Aiho: Fire!

Tsuzuri: Isn't it... getting bigger?!

Harumi: Amazing...

Harumi: To think that it'd give rise to a monster like that...

Harumi: If I were to present this to the academic world, I'd receive recognition.

Harumi: The network is already beyond my control,

Harumi: and with it any hope of recovering and treating those kids.

Harumi: It's all over.

Kazari: Please don't give up!

Mikoto: AIM diffusion fields?

Harumi: It's probably an aggregate form of them.

Harumi: In fact, let's call it an "AIM Burst" for now.

Harumi: It's a manifestation of the unconscious, born when the AIM fields of , people were linked,

Harumi: with the Level Upper network as a catalyst.(Long sentence is long. "Senzaiishiki no kaibutsu" = monster of the subconscious, or something I guess)(I don't want more sentences like this ;_;)(Fck it, this'll do)

Harumi: In other words, it's a cluster of the emotions of , children.

rofl: I was supposed to realize my dream in this city.

rofl: My dream of acquiring an ability.(/bangs head into desk)

rofl: However...

rofl: ...my dream remained but a dream.

lmao: No matter how hard I try, the obstacle known as "talent" keeps getting in my way.

lmao: All that remains is this wretched existence — an everyday life of being tread upon and ignored.

rofl: That's why I have no choice but to obtain it.

rofl: I have no choice but to obtain that power, no matter how.

Kazari: It seems almost pitiful.

Mikoto: What can we do to stop that thing?

Harumi: You're asking me that?

Harumi: No matter what I tell you now, you won't believe—

Kazari: Weren't you the one who unlocked my handcuffs, Kiyama-sensei?(Yay, now we can have Kiyama-sensei in the sentence without making it look really weird )

Harumi: I just acted on a whim.

Harumi: Surely you wouldn't trust me because of that?

Kazari: Besides...

Kazari: ...you wouldn't lie to us with the safety of those kids at stake.

Kazari: I believe in you.

Egasaki: I believe in you, Sensei!

Mikoto: You were listening?

Harumi: Really...

Harumi: The AIM Burst is a monster born from the Level Upper network.

Harumi: You might be able to stop it if you can destroy the network.

Kazari: The Level Upper treatment program!

Kazari: It's worth a try.

Mikoto: I'll do something about that thing.

Mikoto: In the meantime, Uiharu-san, bring that to Anti-Skill.

Kazari: Understood!

Harumi: Really, it's worrying that so many people will trust others implicitly without any sound rationale.

Tsuzuri: Captain!

Tsuzuri: N-No! Keep away from me!

Tsuzuri: N-No...(Now, if this were a hentai, we all know what would happen next )

Mikoto: Why are you just standing there?

Mikoto: Don't blame me if you get yourself k*lled.

Tsuzuri: W-Who are you?

Tsuzuri: What is a civilian like you doing here?

Mikoto: Geez, it's always civilian this, civilian that.

Tsuzuri: Anyway, you need to get out of here—

Mikoto: You're the ones who need to get out of here.(Presumably she's talking about all of Anti-Skill, and not just Tsuzui)

Mikoto: That thing won't lash out unless you att*ck it.

Aiho: Even so, we can't afford to retreat.

Aiho: Do you know what that is?

Aiho: It's an experimental thermonuclear reactor.

Mikoto: Are you serious?

Tsuzuri: What is she doing?

Aiho: That's the girl Kiyama held hostage!

Aiho: She wasn't able to escape in this chaos?

Mikoto: You're mistaken.

Mikoto: Uiharu-san is no longer a hostage, nor is she running away.

Mikoto: I have a request.(Guess this sounds more polite than "I need a favor" )

Mikoto: I am your opponent.(Pro skills in dodging the "Your opponent is me/I" issue * Path doesn't want to use the colloquial version )

Mikoto: Damn it, at least listen to what others have to say!

Mikoto: Crap!

Kazari: Thank goodness it didn't break.(Supporting the PC movement since, uhm, anno something. /erases any mention of "God")

Kazari: I have to hurry, or it'll be too late for everyone.

Kazari: After all, I'm Judgement too!

Kazari: For the sake of everyone.

Kazari: For the sake of Saten-san.

Tsuzuri: Are you all right?

Aiho: Really, young people these days sure are reckless.

Tsuzuri: How's the treatment program?

Kazari: It's safe!

Aiho: We will cover you! Hurry!

Aiho: Damn it!

Aiho: Another one?

Mikoto: Don't just ignore me.

Mikoto: I told you, I am your opponent.

Mikoto: Cease your unsightly whimpering, and face me directly!

Title,Mikoto: AIM Burst

Harumi: By broadcasting the vaccine software(fck you Kiyama; at least be consistent with your own terminology ;_;) throughout Academy City, we should be able to destroy the Level Upper network.

Harumi: If that flower-wreathed girl is successful, we should be able to put an end to the rampage of the AIM Burst.

Harumi: But...

Mikoto: There's just no end to this.

Mikoto: Damn it, why does it have to head towards the nuclear facility?

Mikoto: What is this — some kind of monster movie?!(Gozilla movie TBH ~)

Mikoto: In that case...

Harumi: ...the emotions of , children.(Fck it, broken Japanese syntax + limited space = problems <_<)

Mikoto: Oh no!

Aiho: Yeah, that's right.

Aiho: There's no time.

Aiho: Use whatever means available to broadcast this audio file throughout the city.(Dropping the trasnfer part to shorten this a bit; it's implied as it is)

Kazari: Transfer complete!

Aiho: I'll take responsibility, so just broadcast it!

asdf: This is...

fdsa: Doctor!

fdsa: The patients are...

Mikoto: I can't let it go any further, but...

Mikoto: What is this melody?

Mikoto: Crap!

Mikoto: Damn it!

Mikoto: It keeps regenerating no matter what I do, so there's no meaning to—

Mikoto: It's not regenerating?

Mikoto: This melody must be the treatment program!

Mikoto: Uiharu-san did it!

Mikoto: Too bad, but this is game over!

Mikoto: That was a close call.

Harumi: Don't let your guard down!

Harumi: It's not over yet!

Mikoto: Hey—

Mikoto: What are you doing here?

Mikoto: No way...

Harumi: Even with the network successfully destroyed,

Harumi: that thing is still a cluster of , people's emotions born from the AIM diffusion fields.(You fail Southrop--,, not , ~)

Harumi: Common sense pertaining to normal living organisms doesn't apply to it!

Mikoto: That's not what you told me before!

Mikoto: What am I supposed to do, then?

Harumi: The core.

Harumi: There should be a core stabilizing the field somewhere within it.

Harumi: If you destroy that...

Mikoto: I wonder...(Pff, missing TL ^)

Mikoto: Saten-san?

Ruiko: Are Level s defective?

asdf: That's what they think.

fdsa: I won't forgive them.

lmao: It's no use...

Harumi: Level is...

Alternate,Harumi: This is...

rofl: ...just how hard we worked every day...

Ruiko: You probably wouldn't understand, but there are times when those expectations become a heavy burden.

Mikoto: Stand back, or you'll be caught in the crossfire.

Harumi: I don't care!

Harumi: I'm responsible for the birth of that thing—

Mikoto: You may not care, but what about your students?

Mikoto: When they recover, isn't it you whom they'll want to see?

Mikoto: If you refrain from using methods like this, I'll help you.

Mikoto: Don't give up so easily.

Mikoto: Also...

Mikoto: That thing won't hit you.

Mikoto: What I'm saying is...

Mikoto: ...that I might!

Harumi: That's the same dielectric field that I used against her.

Harumi: As I thought, her power...

Harumi: The electricity isn't making direct contact?

Harumi: Rather, the intense heat generated by the conductive resistance is burning through the surface of its body.(And this is where we pause for a quick infodump/exposition hell, just in case some philistine watching this doesn't understand the awesomeness of the "Railgun." I just love infodumps)

Harumi: She didn't bring her full power to bear against me?

Mikoto: I'm sorry.

asdf: Everyone...

fdsa: ...dreamed of...

rofl: ...acquiring abilities.

Mikoto: I didn't realize how you felt.

Ruiko: It can't be helped.

Ruiko: There's nothing I can do...

: ...but destroy everything.(sh*t. even I can't tell what is being said -Southrop)

Mikoto: You just wanted to do your best, right?

Ruiko: I hated myself for not having any power,

Ruiko: but I just couldn't stop myself from lusting after it.

Mikoto: Yeah.

Mikoto: But you know, in that case, let's try once more, together.

Mikoto: Let's not brood here any longer...

Mikoto: ...or deceive ourselves any further...

Mikoto: ...and try once more!

Harumi: This is...

Harumi: ...a Level ?

asdf: The inspection of the experimental reactor and the surrounding facilities is complete.

asdf: No irregularities detected.

Beato: Roger.

Beato: Confirm once more whether there are any casualties around the facilities.

Mikoto: Um...

Mikoto: What are you planning to do about those kids?

Harumi: I have no intention of giving up, of course.

Harumi: I'll just start over once more.

Harumi: Whether in prison, or at the far end of the world...

Harumi: ...I'll always have my mind, after all.

Harumi: However, I still have no intention of being discriminate about my methods.

Harumi: If you don't like it, feel free to foil my plans once more when the time comes.

Mikoto: Good grief.

Mikoto: What a stubborn teacher.(lack of better words. Originally: "What a teacher that won't learn from her mistakes." -Southrop)(Now that is an amusing line ~)

Kuroko: Onee-sama!

Alternate,Mikoto: Ah, Kuroko—

Kuroko: Kuroko was so worried!

Kuroko: My heart was aching ever so badly!(Yay! Kuroko's back <)

Kuroko: Your hair is disheveled, and your is skin marked by countless scratches!

Kuroko: It appears that you have no strength left with which to shock me.

Kuroko: Now, allow Kuroko to heal you by examining and lovingly caressing every part of your body.

Kuroko: Oh, that reminds me.

Kuroko: There was a message from the hospital just now.

Kuroko: It seems like those who used the Level Upper are regaining consciousness, one after another.

Kuroko: It's all thanks to you, Uiharu.

Kuroko: Now, with that out of the way, Onee-sama...

Mikoto: Hey, what do you think you're doing?

Kazari: Saten-san!

Ruiko: Yo, Uiharu.

Kazari: What do you mean, "yo"?

Kazari: You weren't in your room, so I've been looking all over for you!

Kazari: Are you well enough to be walking around?

Kazari: You're not hurt anywhere still?

Ruiko: I just took a short nap.

Ruiko: I'm already back to my old self,

Ruiko: even to the point of having no ability.

Kazari: Saten-san?

Ruiko: I'm sorry.

Ruiko: I got so worked up over something so unimportant,

Ruiko: selfishly kept it a secret from you,

Ruiko: and made you go through all this.

Kazari: That's not...

Ruiko: I was on the brink of losing something far more precious than any ability.

Ruiko: That's right.

Ruiko: I almost forgot.

Ruiko: I'm back!

Kazari: You've only just recovered! What do you think you're doing?!

Ruiko: It's to celebrate my recovery!

Ruiko: Putting that aside, Uiharu, your panties...

Kuroko: With that, this matter may be considered concluded.

Kuroko: Yeah...

Kuroko: Is something the matter?

Mikoto: Oh, it's nothing.

Kuroko: "Are those who used the Level Upper truly at fault here?"

Kuroko: "In the end, aren't those of us with abilities, who failed to realize how they felt, at fault for what ultimately transpired?"

Kuroko: Might you have been reasoning along those lines?

Mikoto: Don't mimic me; it's creepy.

Kuroko: That kindness is so very like you, Onee-sama.

Kuroko: Though that aside, there's one more thing that I wish you would notice.

Kuroko: That would be...(I admit, I'm one of those people who frown upon starting sentences with a conjunction like "and," unless it's really necessary ><)

Kuroko: ...Kuroko's true feelings.

Mikoto: Thank you, Kuroko.

Mikoto: Your perpetually perverted nature has finally brought me back to my usual self!

Kazari: Besides, Saten-san, you—

Mikoto: You...

Ruiko: Misaka-san!

Kazari: Shirai-san, are you all right?

Ruiko: You two haven't changed.(ELISA, NEVER SING IN ENGLISH AGAIN! K THX)

Preview,Mikoto: Next Episode

Mikoto: Speaking of it, isn't a swimsuit party excessive when we've only just put that incident behind us?

Kuroko: What are you talking about?

Kuroko: The viewers are our gods!(Ok, I get this now /slap; They're doing the whole th dimension thing )

Kuroko: How Kuroko will look in this, and in that—

Mikoto: I don't want to see it!(I do :<)
