Arresta?

Where am I?

Your room.

I brought you here.

I suddenly found you knocked out.

I was so surprised!

What were you doing in a place like that?

What if I hadn't found you?

Oh! You owe me one now, OK?

What is this?

Well, looks like you're doing all right, so I'm heading out.

Get some rest!

Bye-bye!

Boobs

Plug!

Miracles exist next to reality, it definitely exists.

Fight! One Shot! Charger Girl!

A small sigh, because of worries.

Now, staring at your back.

It's wrong, that's why I won't say those kind of words.

People definitely aren't alone.

Even if I touch that painful memory gently.

Even if I forget that precious time.

That's why, to reach even a little higher.

Look, the shine reflected in the child's eyes.

Let the whole world be filled with energy.

I can lend you my power only for this moment.

It's a lot harder to see now.

But what exactly happened back there?

Regardless...

I can't believe I screwed up that much in the parallel world.

I'm trying to be the perfect charger girl.

That kind of thing can't happen!

Just remembering it...

Pisses me off!

Lock On!

Good morning, Arresta!

This morning, you seem really into it.

Trying to get the prize for #1 again, this month?

If I can.

N-No!

Notice Charger Division 2 Plug Cryostat What did you do?

Any person(s) listed above is subject to a 10% salary reduction penalty for 3 months. - HQ General Affairs Division You've gotten single months quite a few times, but three months is a first.

I'll have to get by with one less meal a day...

It's your own fault.

Arresta.

You're doing such an awful job. Naturally, this happened.

No way! You didn't.

I reported everything to the chief, Miss Scribbler.

Arresta, are you getting back at me?

It has nothing to do with that.

Do you even know the rules at this company?

Waiting to charge somebody until after their warning level...

...Is a big no-no.

Normally, you could be fired for that alone.

B-But you were with me then, too.

Why aren't you being punished?

It wasn't my jurisdiction to begin with, and I...

...don't screw up like that.

Why, you...

Plug, wait!

Well, she had it coming.

Charger Division 1: Arresta Blanket.

Please come to the Division 2 chief's room.

Charger Division 2

You also bear some responsibility in the matter with Plug.

You couldn't stop her.

But Chief, I'm...

Let me finish.

Even so, I'm not going to reduce your salary.

Hey, Arresta.

What do you think is the difference between you and Plug?

Permission to speak candidly?

Go ahead.

Plug is an idiot.

I am intelligent.

That's a bit too forward.

However, I agree.

Therefore, Arresta Blanket...

Ma'am!

I ask, in full recognition of your abilities...

...to look after her.

You're right. She's an idiot.

She may do the same thing again.

I want you to stay beside and guide her, so that she doesn't.

Since you are, as you say, intelligent.

Why do I have to babysit her?

Damn, I'm pissed!

I hate you, Plug!

Damn, I'm pissed!

I hate you, Arrestal!

What's with her?! She's just so arrogant!

But from the company's perspective...

...she may be right.

Maybe I need a change of pace...

You look nice, Millie.

Millie-chan!

How does it feel to be attacked by your own wand?

Millie-chan, don't lose to that arrogant bitch!

What are you doing?

Stop it, implants-woman! Oh, Hi there.

I won't be...

...defeated!

What are you doing?

But this is the good part of Millie-chan!

She's been caught by the enemy.

What are you doing?!

No, that's too big!

My house is not your break room!

There you are, Plug.

All right, I'll just bully her until she can't take it anymore.

If I don't, this'll never end!

Plug?

No! Run!

You're...

It's been a long time.

That's...

Are you OK?

That man, he's the one who...

Ouch.

I see.

He got you, too.

He?

He hit me twice!

With this brutal weapon.

I shall explain.

When charger girls are in full stealth mode...

...hot only can people in parallel worlds not see them...

...they can't touch any kind of matter themselves.

This is why her hand slipped through the bat.

Wait a second.

Then how could the bat hit us?

Oh, you're up.

Put this on it.

Here.

Umm...

Can you see me?

Yeah.

What's going on?

Impossible.

Whatever he touches can touch us, too?

Why?

Is it a problem with our world's technology?

Or is it something special about him?

I'm so sorry about that.

When I sense something really weird near me, I just act reflexively.

What's going on?

Um...

This is awful!

Arresta!

Why'd you freak out all of a sudden?

I'm going to report back to HQ.

Report?

Why didn't you say anything about this?

This is a serious problem.

What's the big fuss about?

We're in full stealth mode, but you can still see and touch us.

I need to report this to my superiors, so we can formulate some kind of plan.

So, it was a big deal, huh?

Of course it was!

I'm going to tell them that you failed to report it, too.

You'll be in serious trouble, I'm sure.

This time, you may not get off with a mere salary cut.

No way...

Wait.

Man, you're pretty arrogant, you know that?

This has nothing to do with you.

Maybe so.

But when I see people like you, I just get pissed off.

Isn't there a better way of saying stuff?

A kinder way, you mean?

Yeah, something like that.

That's an interesting thought...

...for somebody whose first reaction is to hit people with bats.

You know...

Sento-kun!

Who the hell do you think you are, anyway?

I'm a charger girl.

So, you're just a charger girl, then.

Just?

That's right. You find someone who's down, and then ding!

You charge 'em up, and you're all done.

Any idiot could do that.

Any idiot?

See? This idiot does it.

Hey!

I think that was a bit much, don't you, Arresta.

I've won the #1 prize three months in a row.

I've got a good shot at MVP this year...

...and you're comparing me with Plug?

Why, you...

All right then. Let's settle this.

If I win, you don't report Plug.

If you win, you do whatever the hell you want.

Sento-kun, you'd do that for me?

No, I just want to humiliate this bitch.

All right, then.

I agree to settle this with a match.

But...

Not a fight.

I'll pick the way we do this.

You sow!

Don't screw this up!

Not bad, huh?

A match to see who can find the most charge targets!

The time limit is two hours.

There's no limit to how far you can search.

The winner is the person who manages to lock on to the most targets.

This is what you decided...

This seems a bit unfair, don't you think Arresta?

Sento-kun's never looked for targets before.

Oh?

He said any idiot could do it.

That's right. I don't care.

I'll do it.

He fell for it.

Finding targets isn't that simple.

The day is mine.

Oh right, Arresta.

Turn off your automatic sensor.

Oh, that's right.

Automatic sensor?

It's a special function that automatically finds people with a high warning depth.

But mine doesn't have it.

Why not?

Plug is bad at her job, so it's been removed, for training purposes.

So that she doesn't rely only on it.

Man, she really sucks.

Now then, let's begin.

Yeah!

Ready...

Go!

Even without my automatic sensor, I'm up against a complete beginner.

This is too easy.

Sento-kun, good luck!

With this many people around, I'll find some right away.

Plug directed me...

...to just press this.

Wow!

I can see right away.

But hey...

From what she said, targets are A, B, or C.

They'll be displayed in red.

There aren't any?

OK! Lock on!

That's a good omen.

Damn it.

If I have to look at each person, I'll never find them, no matter how much time I have.

Wait.

Right now, I'm totally relying on this device.

How did it work with Hakone?

In front of me, she acted like nothing was wrong.

But even if she looked that way on the surface, in her heart...

Which means that if I take a good look at people, maybe...

There really aren't many.

This may be bad.

Don't worry.

During your training, you didn't use the auto-search function, either.

But you did just fine then.

Remember what the instructor told you.

If you just follow those rules...

OK!

OK!

Found one!

OK, time to announce the winner!

Um...

With a score of 8 10 6...

...the winner is Oumi Sento-kun!

Hell, yes!

N-No way...

You're amazing, Sento-kun!

This was your first time finding targets, too!

I guess I'm pretty good.

I can't believe it!

You must've cheated somehow!

There's no other way a complete beginner could have beaten me!

I didn't cheat.

I just didn't use this thing.

What do you mean?

I'm not used to this thing, so I figured...

...It would be faster to look at each person individually.

First, look at their face, and then take a good look at their eyes...

That's...

What?

That's what our instructor said during training.

First, look at their face.

Then look deep in their eyes, so you won't be fooled by their face.

Sento-kun, you never even learned that!

No, even if you did, it's hard.

But you did so well... It's amazing!

Impossible.

You're lying...

I can't lose!

This can't be happening!

No way I lost!

You broke Arresta!l

Don't think you've beaten me!

What?

So, that's what you're really like.

It's surprisingly kind of cute.

C-Cute?

You were just off your game because you disabled your sensor all of a sudden, right?

Someday, let's have a fair rematch.

It's a p-promise, OK?

Sure.

Hey, don't go off into your own little world, you two.

I'm showing this to everyone once we get back.

Wh-Wha..

Give me that data!

You can have a copy.

Wh-What?

Give it to me!

No!

I said, give it to me!

Stop fighting over stupid stuff and get to work.

I can't breathe.

I said, stop...

Don't make me repeat myself. Stop it.

Stop it, already!

You, too?

Listen to me, you idiot!

S-Something's wrong with me...

An awful guy like him hit me with a bat, and I feel...

...S0 good!

Your awake?

Plug?

Sento-kun hits really hard.

You were out for three hours.

Wh-Where?

Under the tree in the backyard.

I see.

Why, I wonder...

For an instant...

I imagined him taking me to his room and taking care of me there.

By the way, about that...

That?

Oh, yeah. I know.

I won't report it to the higher-ups.

All right!

In exchange, if anything happens with him...

Let me know right away.

OK.

All right, let's finish up.

There are a lot of locked-on targets.

She seems strangely happy.

Hey, wait up!

Oumi Sento-san, huh?

I guess, I'll have to keep an eye on him.

This isn't good...I have a bad feeling.

I hope it's my imagination.

Let's see...

Sen-nii, which do you think looks good on me?

OK, this!

I'm really tough, you know.

I'm fine even if I'm alone.

I can go anywhere.

I don't need a boyfriend.

I'm going for a strong mood.

It's what I decided before meeting with you.

That is often a...

...bad habit.

It's not a conversation?

What should I do? Turn it over?

Because I am...

...always special.

You are special too, I just know it.

I don't want it if it's not like that.

I will always be by your side.

When you fall...

...you want to...

...hold your tears, right?

But why am I the one...

...who is always protected?

Whenever it looks like I'm gonna stumble...

...and fall from my feelings...

...you always gently support me.

That coincidental bond will be dear to me.

Always.

My eternal sweet heart.

They were right. At first, it really hurt...

...but if you keep doing it, eventually it starts to feel better.

I want to feel that pleasure again.

OK, let's go.

That hurt!

Plug, just a second?

Oh, Arresta?

What's up?

Hey, how does it feel?

Does it feel good?

Hey, don't just lie there.

Stand up!

M-Murderer!

I won't forgive you, Oumi Sento!

How dare you hit me!

Just remembering it...

Remembering it...

Arresta, why are you moaning by yourself?

I-I'm not!

I'm definitely not fantasizing about him and me...

Here you see Arresta being a tsundere.

Next Time on Charger Girl:

lono Crysis!

What happens to lono-chan?

And what is Arresta fantasizing about?

I'm not!
