Vast though space may be, there are few planets...

...which are famous as tourist attractions.

Among these, the name of the hot spring planet, Tenrei,

is known by many races despite the fact that is an Earth-type tourist spot.

Tales of Hot Springs Past

Further, its history is colored by legend.

Are there really gonna be any wizards on a planet like this?

I heard there are, so we had to come here!

But why's everybody dressed like that?

Welcome to Hagone Hot Springs World

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Hagone Hot Springs World!

Come along! You'll need to go through immigration first.

Right this way!

What's the big idea?!

How rude!

Hot Springs Planet Tenrei

Are you ready, everyone?

"Immigration," huh?

All we did was get changed.

All right, then! Please enjoy your visit!

An upward bound train will soon be arriving on track two.

Due to the danger, please stand behind the white line.

Gene.

What?

Everybody says that they've never heard of any wise men.

Never heard of'em.

Never heard of'em.

Never heard of'em.

Never heard of'em.

They've gotta be here!

Every time I've gone looking for Caster shells,

I heard rumors about wise men who could make them at Hagone on Tenrei!

Maybe they were messing with you.

I've never heard any rumors like that from Ctarl-Ctarl, either.

I hear that Casters and their shells are products of a lost technology...

...that no one can produce anymore.

B-But what about that old woman we met?!

Go to the temple at Mt. Nantai, then.

We'll find out something when we go the temple the old woman mentioned!

There was something fishy about that old woman, though...

We finally know the coordinates of the Galactic Leyline,

so we should go there, already!

We came here to look for Caster shells because we don't know...

...what's gonna be waiting for us at the Leyline, remember?

Well, this is a hot springs planet, so we may as well enjoy it.

That's right. By some coincidence, it's on the way to the Leyline, after all.

Fine, see if I care if the pirates get there first...

Those stupid pirates are still screwing around somewhere!

Um...

What's a hot spring?

Right, you've never been to a hot spring before...

No.

Well, a hot spring is where you...

As part of our customer service, we will now flood the train with hot water.

Basically, a hot spring is something like this.

Oh, okay!

They call this hot?

This has no charms at all...

Sir? Are you all right, sir?

Sir? Sir?

Shut up!

Mount Nantai

Hot Springs Center

Oh, wow!

My, what a cute little boy! He's just my type!

Maybe we should have some fun with him, huh?

He's so cute!

Hey, play something with us!

They call this hot?

This has no charm at all.

Hey, where's Gene?

He isn't here.

It's gotta be pretty serious if that pervert isn't here...

Did I catch a cold or something?

This is the place?

What the heck are those?

What's going on here?

Just as I was thinking that we don't get many visitors here in the inner temple,

someone arrives who has one of those old abominations,

and is red-haired, as well.

Are you one of the wise men?

Wise men? I see. That name may be appropriate.

The days we may call ourselves "priests" is almost at an end.

Can you really make shells for this thing?

I suppose.

I came here to ask you for shells.

Seeing as how you've come all this way...

...would you mind buying something as a souvenir?

How about a Mt. Nantai good luck charm?

Or how about this T-shirt, which has the same effect as the charm?

Who cares about any of that?! Are you really one of the wise men?!

Can you really, really make Caster shells?!

How dare you?! How dare you?! How dare you?!

I haven't named myself yet,

but I'll have you know that I'm Ark Manaf, 12th head priest!

Ark Manaf 12th Head Priest

12th head priest?

But all that's in the past.

For now, buy a souvenir.

Originally, "Caster" wasn't the name of a gun,

but rather, a wizard who casts spells.

Long ago, the gun was called a Spell Gun.

I always thought the shells' effect was almost like Tao spells,

but are they really magic?

Something caused the mana, the magic power of this planet, to disappear.

To maximize the power of the little mana left,

a technique to place spells into cartridges was developed.

That's what brought about the Casters.

There are 20 types, each with a different effect.

I've found 17 kinds of shells, but I've never seen a #4, #9, or a #13.

Because they're special. A #9 is now all but impossible to find.

Why?

Lord Ark, is lunch ready yet?

Only Hadul here can make a #9.

I can't hear very well.

In other words, there's no beating the advance of years, huh?

So what about #4 and #13?

I can make #13s. But #4...

#4?

The woman on Mt. Nyotai.

Oh. Then I'll have to go there, too.

I wouldn't if I were you.

Why not?

That woman... That damn woman!

Long ago, the three of us came here in search of the power of mana.

It was a long, hard, journey.

You don't say?

Instead of looking for mana, that woman found one hot spring after another,

and transformed this world into a tourist planet!

What's wrong with that?

Plenty!

Mount Nyotai

To top it all off, she banned men...

...from the summit of Mt. Nyotai,

and even I am barred from entering!

She lords over everybody like a queen over there,

and she totally ignores me!

I don't have the slightest idea what you're so mad about.

You say you want a #4 shell, so you're going to climb Mt. Nyotai, right?

Y-Yeah.

Take this and record whatever it is that Urt's up to!

If at all possible, get some dirty pictures of Urt!

Did you say dirty pictures of Urt?

I want to see that, too!

If you let me see that, a #9 shell is a bargain!

What's with the dirty old man?

It's just one of his fits.

"Go take some dirty pictures," he says...

I'll make a #13 shell! Just make sure you get those pictures!

Oh, brother...

What was that all about?

They say that Mt. Nyotai is a genuine hot spring, so I'm looking forward to it.

I sure hope this one's a hot hot spring...

Must be nice, being as relaxed as you guys...

I don't have that luxury right now.

That's Mt. Nyotai, huh?

Now this is the charm of a real hot spring.

Oh, this is the charm of a hot spring, huh?

That's right.

This isn't hot! this isn't hot! This isn't hot!

Aren't there any springs around here that're hotter than this?

I want a hot spring! A hot spring! A hot spring!

Hey, Jim! Can you hear me?

How's the water temperature over there?

I'm scared...

How come Gene isn't here at a time like this?

This cold is gonna kill me...

No Men Allowed!! Mount Nyotai Temple

"No Men Allowed," huh?

Suits me fine!

What the...?

I did come here for an eyeful, lady!

I won't fall for that trap this time!

This is paradise...

Gene!

What's the meaning of this?! This is the women's bath!

I didn't come here for a peepshow!

Fool!

This time... This time, I won't fall for that trap!

Now this is more like it...

HOT!

Hot! Hot! Hot!

Hot! Hot! Hot!

Hot! Hot! Hot!

Now I get it...

You came all the way here to get a look at ol' Aisha naked, huh?

That's not it at all! I didn't come here to...

HOT!

He's getting all worked up over this? Talk about no control...

I mean it! I really mean it!

This time...

...I'm not gonna fall...

...for their traps!

Summit of Nyotai

Hey, there ain't no temple up here at the summit...

What the...?

I hear women singing down there...

It's heaven!

How do I get in?!

Punch through!

No good, huh?

Are you awake?

Considering this gun and your red hair,

I think I'll forgive you for breaking my ceiling.

So you're the wizard of Mt. Nyotai, huh?

That's correct. I am called Urt.

Well, then, red-haired man... Come with me.

"Come with me"?

What do you have in mind?

Really, now... Ark and Hadul can be such a bother.

They said that if I don't bring back some dirty pictures of you,

they won't give me any #9 or #13 shells.

And would you like to see that, as well? Dirty pictures of me?

I win!

Very well, then.

I promised that I'd give them to you if you won.

These are #4 shells.

This time, do you want to play for those dirty pictures of you?

If you lose, I get to take dirty pictures of you.

I'm joking.

You bitch!

Wait here a moment.

I'll go and take those pictures, then.

No peeking, now.

Yes, ma'am.

What? Is that true?!

You really brought back dirty pictures of Urt?!

Yeah, taken by the lady herself!

Here are your dirty pictures.

They're right in here.

Shells.

Here!

Here!

What? Just one of each?

Red-haired man, let me give you a word of warning.

These special shells of ours...

...have more powerful magic in them than any of the others.

However, to activate them in these times of weak mana,

a certain catalyst is needed.

So what's the catalyst?

It's...

Well?

The life-force of the person who fires the Caster.

Fire it once and you'll be woozy. Fire it twice and you'll be half-dead.

In other words, no multiple discharges.

Yes, just like... you know. That.

Of all the...

I got more stamina than that, jack!

Forget about that...

Hurry up and let us see that!

Dirty pictures!

Lord Ark, let's look at them right away!

Hurry! Hurry!

Mind if I watch, too?

You sly dog!

Dirty pictures of Urt...

Dirty pictures of Urt...

Let's get started!

Just a bit...

Almost there...

Oh, you're such a dirty boy...

Great!

More! Show us more!

I wonder what those numbers are for?

Who cares about that?!

Exactly!

Forget it.

I can't believe you're still watching...

You people really are idiots, aren't you?

Three.

Two.

One.

Zero.

T-That bitch!

Urt never would've done cheesecake like that without something up her sleeve.

But it was worth it...

I can die satisfied now...

Five bean-jam buns, mister!

Gene, what took you so long?!

Hey, don't talk like that. I did get the Caster shells.

A downhill train is arriving on track 2.

Please stand behind the white line.

- What was that? - What was that?

It's about time.

You don't mind if I launch, do you?

Do it! Set course for the Galactic Leyline!

A red-haired man with a Caster?

Will this universe meet with another disaster?

Next Episode

Now that we know where the Galactic Leyline is, we gotta go there, don't we?

But it looks like we're not the only ones with that idea!

The pirates... The MacDougalls...

Looks like your classic three-way fight!

I gotta be honest, this looks bad!

When I pilot the Outlaw Star, I've gotta trust to chance...

Next time on Outlaw Star! "Cutting the Galactic Leyline"!
