01x12 - Solo vs. Teamwork

[bunniefuu]

Holy

Reporting in!

The Kaii from each building

have clustered and mutated somehow!

The main body seems to be

spitting out several smaller ones, too!

Mutation

B Boss!

EPISODE 12 : SOLO VS. TEAMWORK

Hang on, little Kana, Akane!

This schmuck won't quit sh**ting at me!

Defensive Magic

Template 3 : deploy multiplex!

Damn it!

What's happening, Koshigaya?

It's a doozy, Boss Man!

We're formulating a plan to counteract.

But we're lacking data.

Sorry, but you'll have to wait.

Ya better finish ASAP!

I owe Ginji big time.

An older BROOM

would've gotten burnt to a crisp.

Kana! Akane!

Y'all hear me?!

Lemme know what's goin' on!

I hear you!

The fire is spreading

and we're getting pelted,

but the mutated Kaii is stationary.

These Kaii are like tiny fireballs.

It's looking bleak!

Flowery Wreath Fortress!

Let's just meet up at Building 7!

Three brains are better than one, y'know?

Roger that!

Understood!

Our rendezvous with Ms. Koshigaya

is top priority.

Let's hurry.

Our path is blocked, Ms. Sakuragi!

Our best bet is to maneuver around this!

Agreed.

This heat At this rate

Sakuragi?

You still here?

Oh, wow, this late already?

I'm sorry.

I don't mind at all.

But I'm gonna head out.

Okay, take care.

Um, wait

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

Why did you

choose me to be the teacher

instead of Ms. Koshigaya?

Ms. Makino is spectacular.

She's determined, passionate,

and more confident than I am.

I feel like I'm not qualified.

Listen, Sakuragi.

You have your own strengths.

As I said before, you excel in

on-site judgment and leadership.

That's where you thrive.

But I

Back when we only had Koshigaya,

Nikoyama's engineering talent

wasn't being leveraged at full potential.

However,

with your contribution to our team,

our teamwork is better than ever.

Sakuragi.

Yes?

You're the glue

holding our system together.

Thank you. I won't let you down!

Good.

I have to keep it together!

Are you alright, Ms. Makino?

Yes, just fine.

Let's touch down behind that building.

Sounds good!

Let's catch our breath here.

I'm so sorry. The heat got to me

You're fine. Let's work together

and overcome this!

We're a team, after all!

Ms. Sakuragi

That reminds me

code input : C-5525!

That was phenomenal.

It's a Reverse Code.

You see, someone named Ginji actually

That just might work!

Let's fly through that complex!

Good idea Roger that!

Teamwork both on and off the field

Magical Girls working together!

That's how we operate!

Extension code input!

A-6625, scanning!

Mr. Nikoyama!

I'm sending the Kaii data!

Thanks, Sakuragi!

I'll analyze it from all angles.

I'll keep you updated!

Thank you!

Stormy Blossom Whirlwind!

Building 7 is just past here!

Kana! Where are ya?!

We've almost reached the meeting point!

A'ight, I'm almost there too.

You be careful!

Okay!

Defensive Magic : Template 3!

Ms. Makino!

No problem. I'm ready to

Oh no! That last attack

Ms. Makino, reboot your BROOM!

Understood!

Come on, come on.

Don't worry.

I'll protect you with my life.

Ms. Sakuragi

Ms. Sakuragi!

-Go to the rendezvous point without me.

-But

Just go! Hurry!

Ms. Sakuragi!

Sakuragi!

That squirmin' gets on my nerves.

This guy needs

a few more zaps, huh?

Ms. Koshigaya

She came in the nick of time.

It looks like

we finally got a new plan.

Right, Niko?

Yes, I analyzed the Kaii makeup

from the data you both sent.

I'm creating an effective spell

to neutralize it.

Judging from its size, the best route

is to overwhelm it with a single blast.

I'll send the spell as soon as it's done.

But to aim for the Kaii's main nucleus,

it's optimal to fire from the rooftop!

-Roger!

-Roger that!

-Well, ready to rock?

-Yes!

This method enables feedback

on extermination data from the field.

So this is

what it means to work in a team.

We don't have to think alone

or make all decisions alone

Or shoulder the responsibility alone

This might become a new standard

for Magical Girls to work by.

I'd like that.

I want to help pave the way

for future Magical Girls!

Ms. Koshigaya, Ms. Sakuragi!

I have a proposal.

Sure, go ahead!

This barrier magic

is super strong,

but difficult to maintain while in motion.

We'll need to keep the Kaii distracted

while we fly to the roof.

You're right.

It's gonna be tough

to keep an eye out from here.

So, I'll be the bait.

-Huh?

-You serious?!

I'll lure the Kaii's attention away

so you both can move safely.

If Ms. Koshigaya

can focus on defense and backup,

Ms. Sakuragi will be free

to accurately deploy the spell.

I'll keep its attention on myself

and give you the signal

when it's time to fire.

Can you leave it to me?

Ms. Makino

Alright we'll go with that!

Here I go!

I like that confidence.

Me too!

I believe she'll be just fine now.

I meant, uh

Hell, whatever.

Fallen Petal Flash!

An emergency accessory weapon

And she's a dual wielder!

Makino came ready for action, huh?

Come on, we got some cleaning to do!

Let's go!

Ready to go, Niko.

I see the bull's-eye.

We're ready as well.

Sending now!

Time to fire!

Long-Range Magic

range adjusted for maximum output!

Kana!

Defensive Magic

Template 5 : layered deployment!

The fire's intensifying?

Ms. Makino is in too much danger.

This Offensive Magic should

Don't even!

After what we've seen,

I no longer believe this spell is enough

to damage a Kaii of this magnitude.

Stall for more time, please!

We'll recalculate

and generate a new spell!

Nikoyama, I'll take the wheel

Mr. Nikoyama!

Can this spell's output be adjusted?

Uh yes!

It's a coordinate extension spell base,

so, in theory

Wait, you don't mean

I do.

I'll amplify its power

to the highest value right now!

Code input : Y-96cg!

Hundred Flower Strike!

Do it, Ms. Sakuragi!

Kana!!!

Format : Wit!

We did it

Containment confirmed, everyone.

Job complete.

You did amazing!

Hot dog!

I knew you could do it, Kana!

Thank goodness it all worked out.

Yeah, but

these dangerous missions

still give me a heart attack.

I want to end this crisis soon.

That is Magilumiere's goal.

We sure scraped our way

through that one, eh?

I could use a shower right about now.

Me too.

Wonderful job, team.

No need to clean up the field.

You can go straight home today.

You heard him. Let's go!

In that case,

I'll go take that shower now.

Thank you for today.

You're headin' the other way, huh?

Seeya!

Great work today.

Ms. Sakuragi, Ms. Koshigaya

from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

See you tomorrow!

Let's bounce outta here.

Let's!

So?

What's it like workin' with Akane?

Well, it's

It reaffirmed to me

just how incredible you are.

Yeah, I guess I'm kinda a pro at this

but I wasn't the star today.

Now I realize how much

you've been watching over me.

Oh that, huh?

Well, I said it before,

and I'll say it again.

You've changed.

I like that confidence.

See, you really are watching over me!

Huh? Don't make it sound like

I'm creepin' on you or anything!

MAGILUMIERE MAGICAL GIRLS INC.

Magilumiere Magical Girls.

Oh, thank you for your call.

Yes, we have two girls available now.

TRANSFORM PLEASE

A heart of passion

with an orderly mind

Add a burst of magic

for a symbol of courage!

Magilumiere Magical Girls Inc.,

Kana Sakuragi!

Closet, open!

Dress, on!

Pride and hope become my strength!

Apda's very own

dazzling Akane Makino!

Let's knock it

out of the park again today!

Alright, but today's location

is dark and cramped in places.

We'll need to beware of Kaii movement.

I'm well aware.

I'll be sure to move

calmly and cautiously.

Let me know if trouble arises.

Okay, and please do the same for me.

EVERYONE'S SCHEDULES

CRASH COURSE IN BROOMS

MAGICAL GIRLS AND MODERN SOCIETY

Thank you for having me.

It was a month I'll never forget.

You taught me a lot, too.

Let's go out for drinks again.

Next time, as friends!

I'd love to.

Find a boyfriend before then, okay?

Huh?

Why don't you find one yourself?

I don't need one.

I just want stuff to talk about

when we go drinking after a long work day.

You only want an excuse

to tease me, don't you?

Sakuragi seems

more grown-up now, doesn't she?

And now she's found someone

she can talk about girly stuff with.

Feeling left out?

Don't be stupid.

I feel like a proud parent.

Quite the chaotic month, huh?

Yes, in a good way.

By the way, guys

I'll be out running errands

until tomorrow evening.

If anything happens, give me a call.

Yes, sir.

Got it.

This past month flew by quickly

but it also felt long in some ways.

There was so much to learn

so much to think about

I played the role of instructor

for this training,

but I feel like I learned

far more than I taught.

C'mon, Kana.

We got stuff to do.

Alright!

I'll be back.

This mutation stuff isn't new to us.

We can't be having meetings

for every single case.

Well, considering

what happened at the EXPO

We established rules

for exhibitions moving forward, didn't we?

Well, yes, but

Today, we have an old member

joining again after a long hiatus.

Speaking of which,

why did they even invite him?

A lot has changed around here since

Oh, speak of the devil.

Good to see you again, Shigemoto.

It's been a while,

Mr. Shibafuji.

Alright, time to begin

our third meeting of the year

as Council of Magical Organizations.

The Extermination Measures Policy Meeting

for Magical Girls Fighting Kaii Mutations

is officially open.
