01x38 - The Twinkling Star of Twilight and the Youth Detective Club

[bunniefuu]

Yeah yeah yeah! Wow! Yeah yeah yeah! Wow!

Yeah yeah yeah! Wow! Yeah yeah yeah! Wow!

Within the dark alleys of the metropolis

Biru no tanima no kurayami ni

Spiderman!

Spiderman!

His eyes gleam with a brilliant anger

Kirari to hikaru ikari no me

Spiderman!

Spiderman!

Leaving his tranquil life behind,

Yasuragi sutete

Leaving everything he knows behind,

Subete wo sutete

He'll fly through the skies, chasing after evil

Aku wo otte, sora kakeru

Change Leopardon!

Change Leopardon!

Why do you, oh, why do you...

Kimi wa naze, Kimi wa naze

Why do you risk your life continuing to fight?

Tatakai tsuzukeru no ka, inochi wo kakete

He's devoted himself, he'll stand firm

Hitosuji ni hitosuji ni

He is the invincible man, Spiderman!

Muteki no otoko, Spiderman

Spiderman!

Spiderman!

million yen?

You must be joking if you think I'll sell it to you for that much.

Even million isn't enough?

That's right. I am the only one in the world...

...to successfully develop this capsule, capable of containing botulism bacteria.

If you were to use it as a bio weapon, you could wipe everyone in this whole area out in six hours tops.

Not only that, you see...

The area would become habitable again a mere twelve hours after annihilation.

You've made your point. Enough.

No, no. I don't think you fully grasp what it is I'm talking about here.

The botulism bacteria it contains is the absolute best choice for a bio weapon.

So then, what sort of bid are you looking for?

Say... billion yen?

I-Impossible!

I expect it to be a paltry sum for the Iron Cross Army to cough up.

Not with all of the k*lling and looting you guys have been getting up to...

Fine.

We'll talk again soon.

Ashida Biological Research Laboratory

I thought an evil man like him would be easily bought off...

But he bit off more than he can chew.

Not even the Iron Cross Army would figure out the capsule is hidden in here.

This is it. Do or die.

That billion yen will be mine, I swear it!

Uncle Ashida...

The Tin Twilight Star and the Youth Detective Squad

Sunset Youth Detective Squad, assemble!

Hey, wait up!

What's with you guys? It's a case!

We got a case to solve!

We're tired of playing detective.

Huh?

We're going to be in the fifth grade soon. We don't have time for these childish games.

Hold on now!

It's Megumi! Megumi has a problem she wants us to help solve!

That drama queen?

She's right though! It sounds super serious!

She said she wanted to speak with all of us, as a group!

We got cram school to get to. Right, guys?

Hey!

What's more important, cram school or your pals, huh!?

Lay off, alright? Mom will have my head if I don't go!

I thought we were friends!

Isn't the idea of our youth detective squad that we help each other, no matter what?

But what I'm saying is I'm through with this stupid detective game!

"Stupid", huh? Say it again, I dare you!

Sure. It's stupid.

You lil'-

-Stinkin'... -Get off me!

Now you're gonna get it!

-Take this! You guys stay out of this! Shut up! -Hey! Get off! Stop! Get off him, dude! Quit it!

-How about some of this!? -Dang it! Hey! Stop it!

-Ugh! Dang it! Jeez! -That's what you get!

Hey, knock if off, kids!

There's no sense in fighting.

I'm sure we can work this out if we just sit down and talk about it.

Whatever! I wouldn't want people who would turn their backs as friends anyway!

We're through!

Turn their backs?

Sanpei can't get it through his head we don't want to play detective anymore.

He always thinks there's going to be this big case, like you'd expect to see in novels and stuff.

But isn't it nice, having a dream like that?

Get your head outta the clouds, dude.

Hm?

Ah! We're gonna be late for cram school.

We gotta hurry! Come on!

I see... they must be feeling the weight of reality.

Hey! Try to make up later, alright?

Take this.

Promise me you won't tell anyone you have it.

Cross my heart!

Are you sure you'll be okay alone?

No sweat! They don't call me the ace of the Sunset Youth Detective Club for nothin'!

I must warn you, those arrows are smeared in a poison from the Amazon.

I suggest you tell us where the botulism bacteria is, or...

...Well... you might become more acquainted with that poison.

Spare me!

I-It's in that woodcarving.

The bottom!

It's gone.

Dr. Ashida...

T-That can't be-!

The poison...

S-Spare me, please!

My Spidey-Sense has snared something!

Honey!

You don't know what happened to what was in here, do you?

What about you?

Spiderman! What are you doing here!?

The Man who Can Hear a Pin Drop Meters Away, Spiderman!

Enjoy your snack, Cavity Crocodile!

Once Cavity Crocodile has you in his bite, he'll never let go.

Chomp-chomp! Munch!

Cavity Crocodile!

If he has cavities... then he probably has a sweet tooth!

Hey! That sure is a nice cake over there!

Spider Kick!

Honey, hang in there, please...

A doctor is on his way.

He's burning up!

Let's hope he regains consciousness soon.

Would either of you happen to know why they attacked him like this?

No, I have no idea.

But they were talking about something that was stored in that carving.

I don't believe Dr. Ashida will reawaken before a month has passed.

Though I do believe that he was telling the truth earlier.

So you think a rat stole it from under our noses?

-Yes, sir.

Then your job is to find it.

Check every nook and cranny if you have to! We need that botulism bacteria!

Spiderman combed over Dr. Ashida's laboratory,

finally coming across Dr. Ashida's latest project.

But what caused this?

Botulism bacteria!

Then that's probably what he hid in this elephant.

But it can't be-! He wouldn't-!

H-He's not some mad scientist loon, you know.

My husband would take pride in the honest work he performed.

He was a man of diligence.

But...

Spiderman!

That man...

...has always been my loving husband.

That's right!

Uncle Ashida's a really nice guy!

Ever since I lost my real parents, he's always treated me like his own child.

Spiderman, you don't have any hard proof against him,

so you have no right to call him a bad guy!

Megumi...

Oh, so you do have proof!?

Megumi, that's enough.

Thank you.

Auntie, he'll get better soon, right?

That's the boy detective.

Ah, sh**t. Spiderman's already caught onto the missing botulism bacteria.

What!?

Come on.

My aunt adores my uncle.

Well, they are married.

Yes, but...

If she were to learn that he really had been performing such terrifying research for money...

I worry she won't be able to take it.

Even I... don't want anyone to think of my uncle as a bad man.

I see now...

Sanpei, you took care of what I asked, right?

They'll never find the hiding place, right?

Neither Spiderman nor the Iron Cross Army will ever be able to find it, right?

I think so...

What are you doing here, peeping?

Spying on young lovers is a rather crummy hobby.

Oh, please! Who do you take me for!?

What the heck is that?

We're gonna use it to catch Missie!

Huh? Missie?

They call it Missie since it's hiding in green ponds!

*Green=Midori

It's like that monster who lives in that English lake, Nessie!

Of all the foolish things...

No! It's true! A whole bunch of people have spotted it!

Prime scoop material!

Huh? Wait a-

Not the most exciting venture we've taken...

My Spidey-Sense has snared something!

What's wrong, Takuya?

Look out!

Takuya, it's Missie!

No, it's a crocodile!

No, it's a Machine BEM!

I am now the Machine BEM Denture Crocodile!

Run for it!

Hurry!

Hey! Stop!

No Vehicles Permitted

You won't get away!

Got you now! Come on!

Come on!

Run!

Wait!

That way!

They're looking for the capsule of bacteria...

It seems they figured out we hid it.

Ah crap!

We're not safe anywhere.

And we're running out of options...

Let's ask the others to help us!

Those losers?

We have to trust in them.

The Iron Cross Army are after us!

Oh please! Enough with the jokes.

No, it's true!

Kenta!

What're you doing, still here? It's time for cram school!

Oh... Okay, will do...

-Please! It's urgent! We could really use your help! -I said no! I have a test today, dude!

These guys are who you want me to trust?

They've forgotten all about their loyalty to our detective squad.

No, I don't think they forgot about this badge. Not ever.

I know they didn't.

We have to go!

Hey! Let us go!

These are those kids' detective badges...

They're in danger!

I see! They were trying to signal their friends.

It's an SOS.

These badges belong to Sanpei and Megumi.

Then they were telling the truth about the Iron Cross Army!

Sanpei hid a very important item and is trying to protect it.

Would any of you have an idea where he would've hidden it?

-Hmm... -That might be tough...

They were specifically wanting you when they left these.

There has to be a reason!

But we're going up against the Iron Cross Army here! Ain't no way we can even touch 'em!

Have you forgotten your loyalty to the youth detective squad?

Kenta!

You know you're supposed to come right home after cram school!

Okay, Mom...

-Denture Crocodile's ready to feast! -You better hurry and spit it out, or-!

Spiderman put his trust in the youth detective squad.

Let's go!

-Yeah! Let's go! -Come on, guys!

Hey! Stop causing such a ruckus for pete's sake!

Spiderman! We got just the place!

Right here!

We use this secret message drop in case of emergencies.

So this is where it's hidden!

Now where is it, bubs!?

We just have to hope everyone remembered their duty to the Sunset Youth Detective Squad.

If they did, the botulism bacteria will still be safe.

Hurry it up!

Empty!

Looking for this!?

Spiderman!

Wow!

Spider Strings!

Go! Now!

Okay!

Ha!

Wha-?

The Man who Believes in the Detective Squad's Friendship!

Spiderman!

Yeah!

We are! The Sunset Youth Detective Squad!

Hey, everyone!

Thank you!

Let's go!

Marveller!

Marveller! Change Leopardon!

Leopardon! Sword Vigor!

Goodbye! Thanks for everything!

Goodbye!

Eventually, the day will come when the Sunset Youth Detective Squad will disband.

However, the friendship formed between the members would live on forever.

The Sunset Youth Detective Squad will become eternal!
