01x10 - Bruised & Battered

[bunniefuu]

(Public safety devil hunter)
Yesterday afternoon,

(had a large-scale battle in Nerima)
the public safety devil hunters were engaged in a battle

(Tokyo Metropolis Nerima City)
at the west Nerima building near the Nerima Station.

According to witnesses,

the criminals include
both devils and humans.

The investigation is underway...

Shut up.

Hey you! Give me the apple!

Let me eat it!

No way! It's all mine!

No apples for cowards who
ran away from the enemy!

I didn't run away!

I left because I was hungry!

Stop lying! You coward! Chicken!

Talking about yourself!

Bastard!

- What?
- Let go!

Who else...

Who else from Division is still alive?

That little one called Kobeni.

I think the guy with the glasses is too.

But he quit.

Ms. Makima asked for me
and Power. We're gonna split.

I was just here for the fruit.

I'll be kind and leave you an apple.

Bye.

Curse...

How long do I have?

Two years...

Came back for my manga,
but caught him crying.

Of course he's crying.

A bunch of his workmates d*ed.

And his teammate Himeno is dead too...

Why do I have no tears at all?

I was so sad when Pochita d*ed.

But now that it's Himeno...

She was the first person
to say she'd be my friend.

Am I too cold?

Would I cry if Power d*ed?

I don't think so.

What if that guy d*ed?

Probably no.

What if Makima d*ed...?

If she d*ed...

I'd probably be down for a while

and carry on with my
happy life in three days.

Because I'll be happy as long as I have
three meals a day, a bath and a good sleep.

Did I lose not just my organ heart,

but the heart of a human too?

Whatever! Never mind the serious stuff!

Unhappy thoughts only make you unhappy.

Let's go see Makima!

How depressing.

Excuse me.

Hello.

Are you crying?

Should we leave you alone?

Who are you?

We came from Kyoto as advisors
for Division at Makima's request.

Can I have that apple?

Advisors?

(Chainsaw Man)

The hotel incident and the latest att*ck

proved that Denji is their target.

I was planning to strengthen Division ,

but almost all members d*ed.

Are you going to train us, Ms. Makima?

Unfortunately, I'll be pretty busy.

So I'm introducing you to
someone perfect for this job.

He'll be training you.

This is...

Shhh.

Quiet.

Answer me.

How did you feel when
your teammates d*ed?

Not much.

Well, they're dead.

Do you want to get revenge?

It's too dark. I don't like it.

I agree.

Humans or devils, which side are you on?

Whoever takes care of me.

Whoever that's winning.

You both

get a perfect score.

Types like you are so few.

Excellent.

I like you.

He's weird.

Makima, you can go.

Their training begins here and now.

Thank you.

Ms. Makima?

I'm a devil hunter from Division .

I'll be happy if you can call me master.

So do that.

I like booze, women, and k*lling devils.

I can't… get up.

Your muscle and bone
structure is the same as ours.

Unable to move when your neck's snapped.

The difference between
you and humans is...

I smell blood!

You recover by drinking blood.

Damn it!

What did you do that for?

Makima asked me to train you.

For whatever reason,
the g*n Devil wants your heart.

But you are just a small fry
who'll be crushed in no time.

That must have worried her a lot.

Why did you strangle us?

I've trained humans before.

But it's my first time with you devils.

The drunk me was thinking
about what to do.

Then...

An idea came to me.

I'm the strongest devil hunter.

So the devil who can defeat me
would be the strongest too.

I'll keep hunting you two

until you are able to defeat me.

He's nuts!

Totally!

Let's try it again.

An old drunkard or not,

we'll get arrested if we k*ll him.

Denji.

The boy's immortal.

The fiend's semi-immortal.

And all you think about is
to bash someone's head in.

Neither of you have human rights.

Ever since I was a kid, I was too
strong and constantly broke my toys.

I've always wanted
toys that won't break.

I'll turn you into the best.

Kon.

See? It won't come.

You abused the power
and got on its bad side.

It probably won't ever
let you use it again.

That sword is the Curse Devil, right?

You can use it a few more times.

So this is what you do as advisors.

I'm glad you are so quick.

We're here to do career coaching for
the humans in the special division.

It may sound inappropriate,

but don't you think it's time
to quit after the incident?

In fact, someone from
your division did leave.

It's okay if you want to
carry on with this job.

But we need you to be
sufficiently prepared.

Prepared?

Yes. Prepared.

If you are staying, you need to make
a contract with a stronger devil

to contribute to the special division.

Will you quit and enjoy
the life you have left?

Or will you stay here in this hell?

The one who k*lled my family...

and the one who k*lled my
teammate are both alive.

How could I quit?

I see.

It's late. We're leaving for today.

We'll be back tomorrow
with the paperwork.

Looks like what our senior
in Kyoto told us was true.

Nobody in the special division
is in their right mind.

Be careful. They said.

You may want to take
an objective look at yourself.

There's a lady here to see you.

I'll leave you alone.

I'm going home to sleep.

I'll visit you at your place tomorrow.

His brain broke again!

Come back!

Come back!

How many times was I k*lled today?

At least .

I went unconscious when you d*ed.

So I'm not exactly sure.

That old man's so strong.

I won't be happy at all if I
have to keep living like this.

I worked so hard to be happy.

And now I'm working so hard
and unhappy? That's crap.

Should we flee together?

It'd be running away from
public safety if we did.

And then they'd do
everything to hunt us.

That drunk bastard!

He treated us like his toys!

I'm starting to get really mad!

I got it!

Got what?

A way to defeat him!

He's very strong.

But alcohol has rotten his brain!

We should fight him using our brains!

I see!

I've been wanting to
do that lately too!

Like those smart characters in manga!

Let's k*ll him with our intellect!

I feel like I've gotten
way smarter already!

You too?

I already have ideas in my head!

With our level of intellect,

it'll be impossible to lose!

He'll be our toy this time!

I think they live at...

This scent of blood...

That old drunkard is here.

Anybody who ruins our
daily life has to die.

Super smart operation! Commence!

A blood w*apon?

They went straight for my head.

An ambush, huh?

The hunter is now the prey.

Ow!

That was your best try yet.

A prey will use its brain at
the moment of life or death.

So use your brain to the fullest.

There are two reasons
you failed this time.

One, Power uses too much blood

fighting like that and
makes herself anemic.

Two, Denji failed to predict my att*ck.

Nice try overall.
We're done for the day.

I'm going for a drink.

Power.

He said we're done for the day.

Thank god.

A prey should never trust a hunter.

Signing a contract with a strong devil

means the contract
will probably be brutal.

We are not doing it to t*rture you.

When you return to work,

you'll be plunging into the lion's cage.

You'll need a w*apon to defend yourself.

This is where public safety locks
up the devils they captured.

Find your w*apon here.

On an unrelated note,

is that cute girl from
yesterday your girlfriend?

Get your mind out of the gutter.

She's my teammate's sister.

Did she hit you?

No.

She gave me letters.

Letters?

These are the letters my sister sent me.

I think you should read them.

(Is dad feeling better?)

(I'm well fed. You don't have
to send me rice anymore.)

(How's dad doing?)
(Is he taking his medicine on time?)

(I made Aki get ear piercings.)

(How can I get Aki to quit?)

We'd like you to make a contract
with the devil in this cell.

It's the Future Devil.

Two people in public safety
have a contract with it.

One of them gave half their life span.

The other gave it their eyes,
senses of taste and smell.

If it likes you, you may
get a better deal.

There you go.
