Original subtitles

Missnie, open your eyes now.

Missnie, try using your abilities.

Try using your powers, Missnie!

Professor, we will soon be arriving at the Watanabe Foundation. Please don't be worried.

Oh, so we're here!

Oran, it looks like you couldn't get me in the end.

Currently, the weather above the airport is clear, with no wind.

It will be an easy touch down.

— Gear down. — Roger.

What?!

Emergency, emergency!

Emergency reverse! Turn on the main jet!

What's wrong, NR-7022?

What's going on? Do you read me?

Emergency! The ground...

The ground is swaying! What in the world is going on?

The ground is surging up at us!

What does this mean?

Nanmo, rewind it and show us again.

Emergency! The ground...

The ground is swaying! What in the world is going on?

The ground is surging up at us!

It doesn't seem like something that could have caused a plane crash.

I wonder why it happened?

Could it be something that doesn't exist in this world?

No way to tell.

But the wisdom of the Big Computer judged that it's related to our job this time, so we should find out sooner or later.

Things that don't exist in this world can't exist.

But if we find things that don't exist, they then exist.

I don't get it!

But it's certain that with this one, we've now had seven plane crashes,

all involving aeroplanes chartered by the Watanabe Foundation for transport.

Now, let's get to the cockpit.

Planet Ookbarl should be coming into view soon!

Bleh, time for work.

Kei!

I know!

Hey, pull me up.

What are you doing? Hurry and get up!

Who's there? Who are you?

Was that...

Clairvoyance?

Dirty Pair: Affair of Nolandia

Missnie, you're back?

Missnie, welcome ba...

What?! What are you...

Stay away! No! Stop!

Please, stop! No!

Hey, what luck! A disco!

There are plenty of guys!

Hey, Yuri, let's stop in here!

What are you talking about? Work comes first.

This way, and hurry!

Whatever, come on!

— It can't be! — Yuri!

Cony Brighton!

So, who are you two?

There should have been a girl here with her. Know anything?

World Welfare & Works Association? What do you want?

You don't even know that?

I don't know anything about the WWWA or this girl.

Please don't disturb me. I'm busy.

Hang on!

What a jerk.

Those two?

Yes, Ma'am. Understood.

You'll be coming with me.

The Chief wants to see you it seems.

The Chief?

Are you the one that wanted to see us?

Welcome.

I'm the Chief of Security, Samara Gallan.

I sure thought we were being taken to the police.

We don't have police on this planet.

Most of this planet is covered with a hot sea of clouds, and this small plateau is the only habitable location.

Most of the land belongs to AJ Development,

and as such, I'm not only in charge of the company's safety, but public peace on the entire planet.

So tell me, what exactly is the infamous Dirty Pair doing all the way out here.

That's what I called you for.

Being infamous is none of your business.

She was... The victim, Cony Brighton, was our client.

Do you know anything about a girl named Missnie?

We're working to protect her.

You came all the way here to find your client dead and Missnie missing.

I guess you've already failed your mission, haven't you?

I'm afraid our work has just started!

It's what comes next that's important.

You can work as hard as you want, but we don't want any trouble.

Wherever the Dirty Pair goes, public order is disturbed, murder cases erupt, and cities are destroyed.

Shut up!

As the person in charge of public peace on this planet,

I'd like you to leave as soon as possible.

Missnie is not in this city.

She's most likely in the Southern Hemisphere, in the forest of Nolandia.

What's this?!

About three hours ago, a small aircraft belonging to the victim was stolen.

According to our investigation, the thief was that girl.

Missnie?

Why do you say the destination was Nolandia?

Anybody on this planet would know.

It's the only place to which one can escape. Are you going to go after her?

Of course. See you!

In that case, use our car downstairs to go to the spaceport.

I'm surprised to hear that coming from you.

Don't worry about it.

I just want you to leave as soon as possible, and not a minute later.

Okay, then! This is why I don't like high-ranking people!

I'm not going to thank you for the car!

Oran...

The WWWA is on the move. What are you going to do?

The scenery of the plateau and the uranium mine are tourist attractions, but there's nothing here besides those two.

So the only place people can live is on top of the plateau?

What's down under the clouds?

High temperature and humidity with magnetic storms year-around.

I wonder what made AJ Development want to develop a planet like this?

Kei, what do you think - why Missnie stole that aeroplane and ran away?

Maybe something like Cony's murderer being after Missnie as well.

That's right. We can't waste our time flying so slowly!

Is that it?

We're going down.

It looks like a pretty big place. Do we have any clues?

One is the radio signal that the marker beacon emits.

The other clue is the lake that we saw.

Once we get there, we'll work something out!

— An attack?! — There's no sign of hostile forces.

— Then what is this? — We're falling, we're falling! And fast!

I know that!

Yuri!

What? I don't want any more problems here!

Don't be selfish! Turn around, GF504!

That's impossible!

We have to go down there even if it is impossible! There's an identification signal coming from in there!

Why didn't you say so sooner?!

You suck!

Shut up! Why don't you steer then?

No thanks! I'll leave it to you!

Nice, Kei.

Don't mention it.

What a brilliant touchdown you made there!

Don't mention it.

If somebody snuck something on, why didn't Mughi notice?

Maybe he was sleeping?

After all, explosives are the only explanation I can think of!

But it was pretty incomplete, you know?

If we had been travelling through the atmosphere at the time, we would've been under the heavy clouds by now.

And we wouldn't have made it here?

Mughi! If you keep messing around over there, we'll leave you behind!

Do you think we can fix it?

That? How do you expect me to fix it without tools or parts?

We have no choice but to live down here for a while.

Yuck, I hate places like this where the insects are always after you!

Yuri! Are you all right?

Somehow!

This place isn't somewhere for humans to live!

That's not the issue, Kei!

Haven't you noticed how abnormal the wildlife around here is?

Yuri, I found it!

No doubt about it! Missnie came here in this!

Wait a minute. Is this a VTOL-type plane?

No way. Can't you tell by looking at it?

In that case, how did this thing land?

This had to be a vertical landing, don't you think?

But this type can't do that, right?

Mughi!

What's wrong, Mughi?!

Wait!

Look closely.

What the heck?!

What the hell?

A dream?

You too, Yuri?

A bad dream.

We had the same dream.

What nonsense! Let's sleep.

Mughi, get me out of here!

Ouch...

Missnie?

No, this wasn't done by just one person.

This means the group chasing Missnie has also gotten here.

Let's get back.

Yuri!

It's nothing...

Yuri!

Hey, Mughi, get out of my...

Mughi, that's enough!

Mughi, if you don't stop now, I'll shoot you!

Mughi!

What the hell is this?

Mughi! Don't bother with those, just run!

This is too weird.

— Calm down! — It's all right! Everything will be fine!

— Calm down, Kei! — Here, hold her down there.

— Calm down! Calm down! Calm down! — Right! Hang in there, okay?

Chief...

You're all right now. There's no need to worry any more.

Why are we...

You've been sleeping for three days straight since you were rescued.

Rescued?

— What about Yuri? — Over there.

A dream?

You too, Yuri?

A bad dream.

— No! — What's wrong?

No! You're not Yuri.

What are you talking about?

Pull yourself together, Kei!

Disappear!

Please disappear!

Disappear!

You're awake?

It was an illusion.

An illusion?

An illusion?

Then, what about this?

Kei!

Yuri?! Are you Yuri?

Are you the real thing? Hey, are you her?

I'm back to square one.

— Or is this still an illusion? Which is it?! — Kei!

Calm down, Kei. Calm down!

Calm down, calm down.

Have you settled down now?

Seems I managed, somehow.

Hey, Kei?

Do you remember what the pilot of the aeroplane that crashed screamed?

I wonder if the pilot was seeing an illusion as well?

I see...

Then who's doing this?

Probably...

Missnie?

Also, take a look at this.

What are those?

Pfft! Okay, did you know that molecular structures can be either right-handed or left-handed?

Oh, no! I'm no good at that.

Well then, do you remember the analysis of Pasteur's experiment using tartaric acid and racemic acid?

I forget.

The conclusion goes like this.

Inorganic substances, like crystal or anything like that,

always have both left-handed and right-handed structures, making them well-balanced overall.

However, organic substances...

I remember now! In the case of organic substances, each substance always has either right or left-handed structures,

but only one kind throughout the whole substance, right?

Yes, so if one molecule of a substance is right-handed, all the molecules of that substance will be right-handed. See?

However...

These are samples taken from the plants here.

They have both!

Okay, so that means one side is something that is not supposed to exist in our world.

Yuri! Then the aeroplane that crashed must have been carrying...

This is just a feeling that I have, but this whole forest, no...

Maybe all of Nolandia is a place filled with things that aren't supposed to exist in this world,

a place for all of those things to gather together.

Otherwise, I can't think of any explanation for the existence of these abnormalities!

Why would Missnie come to a place like this?

I don't know.

How were they killed when they had ESP shields?

The shields actually might have caused them more trouble.

When Missnie's illusions failed, she was afraid of being caught, so she panicked and made the creatures of the forest do this.

It makes sense.

But...

What's wrong, Mughi?!

Yuri!

This way!

This is...

It's not an illusion.

Yuri?

Is it trying to kill itself?

Missnie?

Shall we change our plan?

When we look for her, she hides and won't come out, right?

So let's stop trying to find her, and play instead!

Here we go!

After all, she's a little kid!

If we look like we're having fun, she'll come out on her own!

Is that how it works?

Don't worry, don't worry! It's an illusion!

Isn't it great skiing out in space?

You know...

Yuri, get out here! Where are you hiding?

Yuri, get out here!

Hi! Kei, what's wrong?

If you don't hurry, you'll run out of time!

I found you! Yuri, give me the card...

What? Out of time?!

Kei, are you all right?

You look wonderful, Kei!

Yuri, you're up next!

Take this!

Okay, you have ten seconds.

Hurry up and come to get the cancellation card!

No fair! Don't the rules say we have at least three minutes?

No!

Finished!

Hey, what do you think? Isn't it cute?

A good job, don't you think?

That's great, Yuri!

It's so out of proportion it looks just like you! How great!

What did you say?

Why don't you make one, then?

Sure thing! This should be a piece of cake!

All right, that looks about right.

How's this, Mughi?

Here we go! Faster!

That's it, faster!

This is the best!

Kei, look at these guys here! The guys!

It's just an illusion anyway.

You can't eat pictures of food.

Why don't you just take a look at them?

Good looking guys!

Shall we dissect them?

— Dissect them! — Kei?!

Dissection, dissection!

It's me.

No, I haven't heard of any contact yet.

Right now?!

I'm against this! But...

I'm stuffed!

I don't think I could eat another bite!

Do you think it's all right to keep playing around like this every day?

There are many different ways to go about work.

Hey, Yuri, have I put on some weight?

Where did you come from, birdie?

Up there!

It must have fallen from up there.

Why don't you take it back up?

What? Me?

Weren't you complaining about your extra fat?

You need to exercise!

Why do I have to...

Hurry up.

Right, just a little more! Come on!

Don't think that we'll always be here to save you!

Kei!

What did you do that for?!

Look! Over there.

Missnie!

Hi there.

Why are you hiding, Missnie?

Do you like those?

Why don't you come and play with us?

Come over here.

We've been waiting for you.

I knew that.

Why didn't you come out earlier then?

I was afraid.

I was scared, so I was watching you from far away.

You're not afraid any more, are you?

Hey, Missnie, why did you come to a place like this?

Yul, Miros, and Hisa were all brought here.

Are those your friends?

Yeah! So Missnie came here too.

But I can't find them anywhere.

The scary people came to get me and I...

I'm so happy that you're not scary people!

You don't need to worry about the scary people any more.

Really?

So let's go back together, okay?

No!

Missnie!

I don't want to go back there!

Missnie...

No!

Who is it?!

Are you all right?

Samara?!

Don't mess with us! Why did you do that?!

Missnie is the murderer.

She's the one that killed Cony Brighton.

If we had came a little later, you would have been in danger too.

You're lying!

It's sad but true.

We've been worried about you since we lost your signal, but we couldn't move because we were still assembling the proof.

It's not true! Missnie isn't the type of girl who would do that!

We have plenty of evidence.

But, but...

Why? Why Missnie?!

Samara, you certainly did make it in time, didn't you?

What do you mean?

Missnie was about to open up her heart to us.

That's all.

If you need help, feel free to let us know.

What's going on?

What in the world?

This is an illusion. Isn't it, Yuri?

This is an illusion, right, Yuri?

Leaving so easily?

I'm disappointed in you, Dirty Pair.

What are you thinking about?

It may be time to quit soon.

You should know what will happen once the information is leaked.

Soon, other investigators will come.

Once, Yullgis gave me a warning.

"It's dangerous to trust Samara too much," he said.

With you like this, I may have to think that over again.

Whatever you say, I can't follow you the way you are now.

That experiment too.

For me, as a woman...

Samara, once you've gotten blood on your hands, you can't wash it off.

Don't forget that.

Stay at my place tonight. Okay?

A suspicious small aeroplane?

Yes, yesterday, it strayed from the normal flight path.

We followed it on the radar, but a magnetic storm got in the way, so...

You two!

Okay, don't move now!

Sorry for coming in through the window!

I thought you went home!

We don't quit a job halfway through!

We hired a couple of people, and our pet is keeping an eye on them.

We've solved all the mysteries, Mr. Oran, president of AJ Development.

The first tragedy was that, for better or worse, Dr. Kishida was a scholar through and through, wasn't it?

Searching for an environment in which he could devote himself to his research, since he hated your control,

he took the research materials he had and sold himself to the Watanabe Foundation.

After you found out what had happened, you shut his mouth and destroyed the cargo at the same time.

Missnie, try using your abilities.

Try using your powers, Missnie!

Emergency, emergency!

Emergency reverse!

The second tragedy was that he didn't know about Missnie, right?

Seven aeroplanes, including the decoy.

You involved quite a few people in this thing.

This seems to have nothing to do with me, unfortunately.

I told you not to move!

Before I came here, I went to see AJ Development's uranium mine.

Your big lie of a uranium mine.

Just approximately, it's from about two million years ago.

In other words, it's not a human ruin, but an alien one.

You were very pleased to find this unexpected treasure here and started doing research on the things you found.

You not only didn't know how to use them, but you didn't even know the purpose of the majority.

But with the group effort of your scientists, and a fortunate stroke of luck, you found out how to use a few of them.

Missnie is an artificial esper born from the legacy of the alien ruins!

Do you have any proof?

Two things.

One is the illusion that Missnie showed us.

The other is the living things of Nolandia.

They're the failed products of your experiments until you made Missnie.

I can't even imagine how many of them are there.

But no matter what their purpose is, nobody should have the right to play with and neglect the lives of so many things.

You must have been thinking about controlling the universe or some nonsense like that, right?

How naive.

What?

What is goodness?

It is the desire for power, and everything which boosts that power.

Then what is badness?

It is everything that comes from weakness.

The weak cause nothing but harm for us.

What we should wish for is more power, and not peace, but war!

The weak and the failures need to be destroyed!

This is the first principle in our love of humanity, that we should undertake the weeding out...

Enough of the nonsense!

Are you saying that killing Cony was part of this weeding of yours?

That's a very convenient principle you have.

After she appealed to the WWWA, she was disposed of as a traitor!

The Dirty Pair? It couldn't be!

I'm sure the Universal Federation Police have begun to look into this.

Why don't you guys give it up?

Oran!

Samara!

Oran!

Get out of my way!

Wait!

Yuri!

Leave him to me. Go and get Oran!

I'll leave the physical battle to you, Kei.

What?

This is no good!

It's over already?

Give up!

Samara!

Wait!

Taxi!

Idiot!

Who the heck are you?

A friend of justice! Here I come, Oran!

Damn it!

It's me.

Missnie is still alive.

As we thought. They have an unbelievable amount invested in her after all.

Oran has changed ever since Missnie was made!

Stop!

It's me. Get out of my way!

I can't do that. Just a moment ago, you were released from your job as Chief of Security.

What? Oran!

Samara!

Let's go!

What the hell?!

There are too many of them!

We are Chief Samara's men to the end!

Please use this bike.

Wow, thanks!

Done yet? Quickly!

I hope the code hasn't been changed.

This way!

I'm not letting you get away!

I didn't know they had another research centre here.

Missnie!

It's all right. She's just sleeping.

She'll be awake in an hour or so now.

An hour?

Oran secretly took a part of the alien ruin to his plane.

With that, he can make as many Missnies as he wants.

His destination is the spaceport?

Take care of Missnie.

Got him!

Please replace the energy pack.

Please replace the energy pack.

Couldn't you have waited a little bit longer? Really!

Oran! Wait!

Wait up, bus!

Wait for me!

Wait, please!

Hey, Miss, what's wrong?

You look pretty desperate!

Shut up!

Hey, this is a nice chance! Lucky me!

— No, you can't! Thief! — I told you, I'm borrowing it!

I'm not letting you get away!

It's me.

I'm going to the spaceport now.

You're still alive?!

I have the Devil's luck, you know.

That devil's luck is over now!

So quick!

It'd be boring if it ended that easily, wouldn't it?

A cyborg?! Everybody move to the next vehicle forward!

You're in my way!

Wait!

The spaceport?

What's wrong, Miss?

How long until the next train?

Sixteen minutes.

How far is the next station?

1.3 kilometres.

Is that so?

Hold it!

I'm not letting you get away!

What?

I'll have to try this!

Wow, you're a die-hard.

But it's over. Here you go.

Bye-bye!

Hold it!

The chasing game ends here.

Let me through!

What is Yuri doing?

Take a look behind you.

Kei!

— Yuri, Oran is over there. — Okay!

Stop that guy!

Give me that!

Oran!

I won't forgive you!

Stop!

What are you doing? Let go of me!

Are you resisting?

He's running away. Let me go!

I said, I won't let you get away!

How's that? That should be the end of that!

That's enough!

AJ-100, you are cleared for take-off.

What a stubborn girl.

The range of fire for this gun is forty metres.

Missnie?

Yuri!

What is this? Another illusion?

No, it's not.

Can you hear me, Mughi?

Come here. Hurry!

Since ancient times, the Ajijijohari plateau has always been destined to collapse due to erosion someday.

But Missnie and the others hastened it.

Was it because of us?

I'd like to think not, but...

But what?

In the end, we weren't able to save Missnie.

But at least I can say this.

Nobody will make Missnie scared any more.

And so, you can make the report to send to the Chief, Kei!

Why do I have to do it?

I don't want to!

I don't want to either!

Please!

No, no, no!

This gentle heart beat

Dodging and hesitating

This impossible dream

Passing by my heart

The lonely way of hesitation, floating in the sky

This formal talk, I want you to know

Girls don't mean what they say, take my heart

I want to dance, shiny love

A new season begins again

Chasing aimlessly, it will make it right

For as long as time is certain

I want to believe in love forever

This rain can't fully hide my sighs

While gazing outward

The memories flow forth, and now

A new season begins again

Chase aimlessly, will make it right

For as long as time is certain

I want to believe in love forever

I want to believe in love forever
