01x01 - ACT-I "Crime Brigade"

[bunniefuu]

Why is our police department
equipped with weapons...

...with such a capacity
for mass slaughter?

They're supposed to protect
the rights of civilians...

...not threaten their safety!

When innocent lives are sacrificed
in the name of controlling crime...

...the police become the criminals.
Can't you understand?

Madame Mayor, you should've said
that to the Council 3 years ago.

Why can't you understand?

The percentage of civilians
k*lled in tank-related incidents...

...is less than a mere
five percent of the deaths...

...from traffic accidents
or bacterial poisoning.

I want the Tank Police
recognized for their work!

''A mere five percent,'' you say!

That callous talk will be the
death of us public servants.

Chief, you've no idea how easily
the voters can turn against us!

Or how readily they see the wisdom
of an idea like the Tank Police!

Do you want us to protect the
sensibilities of a few liberals...

...while everyone gets
their asses shot off?!

Why can't you protect everybody,
even the criminals?

Don't give me that crap
you feed the media!

All you're worried about
is getting re-elected!

You can't cut out a cancer without
shedding a little blood!

Would you tell a surgeon
not to operate...

...while you watch society
die of a malignant tumor?!

l'm not saying the surgery
shouldn't be done!

Sure! Because it started
three years ago!

l'm ordering that these hacksaw
surgeries on society stop!

Hacksaw?

A surgeon sterilizes his scalpel!
Avoids unnecessary loss of blood!

When tanks perform the surgeries,
society dies on the table!

Wait a minute!

You politicians gave us surgeons
the tanks in the first place!

Nowadays the tanks are about
as effective as toothpicks.

Toothpicks? lf those atrocious
tanks are toothpicks...

...then what the
hell do you consider...

...appropriate equipment
for the police department?!

Well, l wouldn't mind
sending the guys out...

...with atomic bombs
instead of g*ns.

A-- A-bombs?

lf A-bombs can deter wars,
they can deter crimes.

Of course, we'll never completely
deter crime in this world.

You... You can't be serious!

Of course l am!

You people gave us the tanks
to fight the bad guys.

We've known that the law creating
the Tank Police was a bad one.

But a law is a law!

The Tank Police must stay on
the front lines of this fight!

l'm not asking you to
find a cure for society.

But if you want law and order,
give us more tanks!

Don't you understand?!
We're already in the middle of a w*r!

CRIME BRIGADE

Hot dance in cherry moon...

Hot dance in cherry moon...

When the glass ship climbs
above the skyscrapers...

...two lives see through
each other in stardust.

Rather than dramatic lines...

...everyone just wants to
confess their loneliness...

...my love!

With an unpainted face,
heat it up.

The long-awaited kiss sparks
and catches onto my heart.

With an unpainted face,
I'll whisper.

So, love my dreams, love my tears.

Hot dance in cherry moon...

Ouch! Ouch!

Hurry up and do something!

Buaku, you're a genius!
There, there. All better!

Hey, don't overdo it!

We're almost at the hospital.

l'm nervous.
ls everything taken care of?

All set!

What's ''all set'' supposed to mean?
Hurry up! We haven't got much time!

Ouch! Ouch!

Talk about overacting...

Oh, well.

What are you doing?
This hospital is...!

What are we doing?

Don't you see this?

Ouch! Ouch!

My arm! Give me an X-ray!

Give me a scan!
My arm's falling off!

Satisfied? Now get out of the way!
This is an emergency!

B- But...!

You can see the
inside of my arm?

We don't treat sick
or injured people...

...at this hospital.

Didn't they tell you
at the entrance?

Doc, he asked if you could
see the inside of his arm.

Never mind! My pain
went away! l'm cured!

Don't move! I'll get a better
look at it in a second!

Didn't anyone tell you
this hospital is only for...

...perfectly healthy people?

''Perfectly healthy people''?

Now l can see better.

What's going on?! What's the
meaning of this machine g*n?!

I told you l was cured.

Everything is A-OK!

Hurry up! Spill
the names of your accomplices!

We gotta leave for patrol duty!

Love thy accomplices!

God will rejoice if thou
gatherest thy friends...

...and goest to jail together
rather than to heaven by thyself!

Scientifically speaking, it's just
as impossible for a bucket...

...to float in the air
contrary to the law of gravity...

...as it is for suspects
to defy the Tank Police!

Stupid! Lousy shot!

Roll it harder!
God is impatient!

Damn. lt's just not my day.

lt's your turn, Al.

Squad Leader, are we
allowed to do this?

Squad Leader!

Kid, a policeman's
gotta have guts...

...just like he's gotta
have smarts and savvy.

Okay, then.

Raise it higher!
Grab onto the grip...

...as if you're wringing
out a washcloth.

No sweat!
Let's get this over with!

Ten bucks says he won't confess!

Five bucks says he will!

All right...

What?

Who're you?
What're you doing in here?

What kind of reception is this?

This is the tank
police unit, right?

That's right. What do you
want with the Tank Police?

Sir! Leona Ozaki, sir.

Reassigned from the motorcycle
patrol to the Tank Police!

Wow! l had no idea
tanks were this big!

lt gives me a whole
new perspective...

Hey... Wasn't it you who hit me
with this hand grenade?

Uh... That was, uh...

Call me Leona.
Pleased to meet you.

Now you've done it!

Britain!

VAP room...? What's that?

lt stands for
''virus atmosphere pollution''.

What is this? lt's creepy!

This is it!
This is what l wanted!

No doubt about it!
This is it!

Stay out of our way!

You are completely surrounded!
Give up your weapons and surrender!

lf l was going to give them up,
I wouldn't have brought them!

Uni, it's been a while since
we've had such nice lighting.

Anna, with this audience,
it'll be worth our while.

Don't forget the routine.

Leave it to me!

Hah... Boy...

Hey, boy...

Boy...

Hey, let's dance! To the hot beat.

Hey! Hey, boy!

The heated heart, feel it...

...and look at me!

Hey, let's dance! Don't be so shy.

Hey! Hey, boy!

Don't be so hesitant.
Let's dance!

This dressed-up town...

This running music...

Hey, boy...

Nothing intricate...

There aren't any rules tonight.

Hey, boy!

Hey, let's dance! To the hot beat.

Hey! Hey, boy. The heated heart...

Bye-bye, baby!

The driver's split!

Oh, that's just great!

I heard that the pickpocket
spilled everything.

The guy was really shook up.

He confessed to five counts of
r*pe without being asked.

But the Chief was really upset.

That's not unusual.
Don't worry.

Not unusual?

Do you conduct that kind
of t*rture all the time?

No way! When it comes to t*rture,
I don't like it much.

lt's not t*rture!
lt's interrogation!

The finest tradition
of the Tank Police!

We're like a mountain
when facing criminals!

We've received an emergency back-up
request from the SWAT team!

Tell 'em we're busy teaching
rookies basic patrol theory.

They say they're nearby.

Probably another bank
robbery or drug w*r.

All those wimps do
is request back-up.

They should handle it themselves
once in a while!

Squad Leader, there's a crime in
progress! Aren't we going?

Leona Ozaki, listen carefully!

There's a crime in progress in
Newport City every 36 seconds!

Our duty is to make sure...

...it doesn't become every


Let's see... ls that under our
''crime deterrent function''?

IN a police academy textbook
maybe! Not on the streets!

Then what is it?

Suppose we go to
every crime scene.

My precious Tank Special's
gonna get banged up.

When you're on the street,
you love your tank first!

''Love your tank''...?

We've been rear-ended!
We've been rear-ended!

Annupuna! You idiot!

Of all the people,
you rear-end the Tank Police!

That tank was in the middle of
the road. l couldn't avoid it!

lt's their fault!

Oh, l see. lt's their fault.

ldiot!
What the hell are you doing?!

You've messed up
my precious tank!

You'll die for this!
Step out!

You've just rear-ended
Tank Police Squad Leader Britain!

My driver says it's your fault.

They got the Squad Leader!
Leona, go after them!

l've never driven
anything this big!

Go after them!

lt's easier than a motorcycle!
Now go!

My Tank Special!

Wait! Wait!

Where are you going
with my tank?!

Leona Ozaki! Stop!

I said stop!

Why are you driving
so dangerously?!

Why don't you watch
where you're going?!

ldiot! You're banging
up my beautiful baby!

What do you expect me to do?!
l'm in training!

Right 35 degrees!
No, 29 degrees!

Turbo on!

Stop yelling!
l'm busy enough as it is!

Oh, my God!

Damn! Only one chance left...

Go!

Look out! We've gotta get out!

Damn!

Goddamned Tank Police!

You'll pay for this!

Can't you walk straight?!

A pile of claims!

You didn't catch
Buaku and his g*ng!

You call yourselves
''elite'' Tank Police?

Yes, ma'am...

A pile of claims!

You didn't catch
Buaku and his g*ng!

You call yourselves
''elite'' Tank Police?!

Yes, sir...

A pile of claims!

You didn't catch
Buaku and his g*ng!

You call yourselves
''elite'' Tank Police?!

Yes, sir...

But that's not the reason
why l'm really mad!

l'm mad because you
totaled my Tank Special!

lt wasn't an ordinary biotank!

lt was a real tank,
made of steel!

lt was like my son!
lt was the apple of my eye!

Do you understand...?

This is a male thing!

But that tank was so massive.

lt didn't handle like
the motorcycles.

Silence! With man-stuff,
the bigger, the better!

That's been understood
since the dawn of time!

You've no business messing
with our tradition!

Go to the child
welfare department...

...and kiss some
juvenile delinquent a*s!

I can't believe you'd be so...

I should be crying, damn it!

l'm the one who should
be crying out loud!

Go ahead and cry, already!

What did you say?!

You'd better have a g*n!

Sir! Sir!

One or the other - me, or
that little b*tch is gonna die!

Sir, please!

C'mon, guys!
Let's stop the Squad Leader!

ls this a new narcotic?

No, it's just urine.

''Just urine''...?!

Precisely speaking, it's urine from
a perfectly healthy human being.

lt's piss! l've had enough!
Let's go!

Hold on a minute, Squad Leader!

ls there any intrinsic
value to this urine?

Can it be used to make a new
medicine or something like that?

I think they used to make
nitrogen fertilizers from urine...

...in the past, but that's
not my area of expertise.

lt's from a perfectly
healthy human being?

Yes. Once in a while,
such people are encountered.

The aim of this hospital
is to treat and study them.

''Treat perfectly healthy people''.
You gotta be kidding!

Why is that so funny?

lt's obvious. Don't you
think, Mr. Squad Leader?

Who said you could call me that?!

I can arrest you.

Sorry...

Squad Leader went
to the VAP hospital.

Are you tired? You've had a
really rough first day, Leona.

Here, you should be
wearing this gas mask.

l... l didn't mean to...

The captain knows.

He did love that tank of his, though.
Like it was his own kid.

And l totaled it.
ls the captain married?

Married to the Tank Police.

There's no reason to
blame yourself for anything.

You like tanks?

Maybe...

The police department?

Maybe.

Okay, Leona. You'll come
to like the Tank Police.

Maybe.

That's a good girl.
Nice and honest.

That quack! Using his
professional lingo.

I couldn't understand
a word of it. Damn!

lt's like this, Squad Leader.

None of us who live
under the bacterial cloud...

...can be considered
perfectly healthy.

l'm perfectly fine.
No aches or pains.

And according to that quack,
l'm seriously ill?

lmagine him bragging he
only treats healthy people...

...and not someone like me!

lf physicians
treat healthy people...

...then police should rob banks!

l'm keeping myself on a leash.

Just once in my life...
l'd like to rob a bank, too!

Wait a minute, sir!

We have no aches or
pains despite our illnesses...

...because we have developed
immunity to the bacterial cloud.

You know? lmmunity?
Pasteur and son? Inoculations?

Follow me?

A cow, yeah.
I know that much.

You do understand, don't you?!

All of us have been
infected by disease.

We don't die when we breathe
in the bacterial cloud...

...because we've lived with it for
generations. We're immune!

The gas masks and
the steam sterilization...

...really don't do very much.

Why did that quack say he
only treats healthy people?

Some people don't have
those acquired immunities...

...because they have no
bacteria in their bodies.

Why not?!

The doctors don't know why.

But if they don't have immunities,
they should be healthy.

At least theoretically.

What do you mean ''theoretically''?

l'm not sure, but if we could
destroy the bacteria cloud...

...we who have the
bacteria in our bodies...

...would become
truly sick, l imagine.

Was that what he
was talking about?

Something along
those lines, yes.

Specs, you're a genius!

Squad Leader!

Who left this lying on the floor?

The remains of my tank...

Ah, Squad Leader!

Squad Leader,
what are you doing here?

My question exactly!
What the hell are you doing here?!

Chaplain had a
good idea, Squad Leader.

A good idea?!

What, are you planning to
send me to my grave early?

You've already got one foot in
that grave. You and your tank.

We're making
Leona a mini-tank...

...from parts we've cannibalized
from the Tank Special!

l've already named it
Bonaparte! lsn't it nice?

''Bonaparte''?

That's right! Nothing's
impossible for this tank!

Since we're building
it from scrap...

...don't worry about
budget considerations.

lsn't that delightful!

lsn't it convenient how you
can use parts from my tank...

...which you wrecked
without permission!

lsn't that bloody fantastic?!

Even the devil couldn't
come up with a better one!

l'm busting my a*s
on the piss case...

...while you clowns are having
a ball making a toy tank!

lt's not a toy! lt really works!

Sure it works, honey!
I believe you!

Specs! Get your a*s over
to the quack's hospital...

...and look into that piss case.

Your Squad Leader's gone...bye-bye!

Yes, sir! l'll get right on it!

Leona Ozaki?

Yes, sir?

When you finish with your toys,
report to the welfare department!

Do you understand, Leona?

But, sir...!

That's an order!

Danger level! Danger level!

The density of the bacterial
cloud is unusually high.

Citizens are advised
to stay indoors!

Citizens are advised

The city government
will not be responsible...

...for deaths due to
bacterial toxification!
