Original subtitles

Whoa! Look at all those tasty-looking cotton candy puffs!

This scenery's like something out of a vintage anime or something.

Yeah.

Can you really get to the moon from here?

It's not a scam or something, right?

Because it would suck to come all this way

only to be told, "Whoops, sorry, the moon is a lie!"

Here it comes!

Wh-What the?

That would be the only thing that can take you to the moon:

the Moon Cannon.

Awesome!

So that's it...

boku ga boku no mama irareru basho sagasou

I'm gonna look for a place where I can stay the way I am.

tsuki ni terasare hashiridasu yo

Lit by the moon, I set off running.

furui shakai nado shikato shite

Ignore the old world and the old ways;

bokura ga terashi ruuru ni nare

live by the rules we bring to light.

hora! buchikowase kono te de

Look! Break it down with your own hands.

kimi ga kimi no mama motomeru basho wa doko

Where's a place where you can stay as you are?

dare no iinari ni mou naru na yo

Don't listen any more when people tell you what to do.

yume wa shinjiru furikazase

Believe in dreams and flaunt your power.

boku ga boku no mama iru tame ni wa itsumo

For me to stay as I am, I need

shinjita omae wa tsuranukunda

you, who always believed in me, to stick by me all the way,

sou da saigo wa kisu shitai

and at the very end, I want to kiss you.

RUN AND CANNON

The Skybloom Kingdom, blessed by nature,

is the closest country to the lunar surface.

Like a dreamworld, its beautiful palace and beautiful town streets

are made entirely of marble.

And don't forget Futureland,

filled with tons of fun attractions!

This isn't just an amusement park.

It also serves as a training facility for the Moon Cannon!

The Skybloom Kingdom is waiting to aid you on your path towards the stars.

The moon is near! "Let's Challenge"!

The moon is near! "Let's Challenge"!

Wow.

So if you got shot, you'd die, right?

Yeah, you'd die for sure.

Don't be so scared, Alan.

They won't shoot you if you don't cause trouble.

Y-Yeah...

Guests with moon passports are exempt from the inspection.

You're all cleared.

Excuse us.

Good job! Thanks!

Welcome to the country closest to moonside, the Skybloom Kingdom!

The Skybloom Kingdom is blessed by nature...

So they've been deployed to this country too.

...and beautiful town streets are made entirely of marble.

Towns made of marble? Wow.

Well, this country's got a monopoly on moon travel.

I bet they're rolling in money.

Stop, please!

Transportation of vehicles or machinery beyond this point is prohibited.

Store it in the parking lot over there.

That's sorta irritating.

So why can't you operate Bigfoots in town?

Well, we just have to put up with it while we're here.

What the?! What's all this?!

No kidding.

This town has always been so low-class.

I'm off, then.

I'll go with Mr. Dan and the others.

Don't get lost.

Don't worry!

I have a good nose!

"Keep our town clean"...

"Take care of our town"?

"Keep our streets clean."

"No dirtying the streets."

This one says, "If you dirty the streets, don't walk them."

This kingdom overloaded with warnings. Bleh.

No wonder there's nobody here.

What's this?

"Wear oversuits for a lovely town appearance."

What's an oversuit?

What's the deal?

If they've got that driving around, what's wrong with a Bigfoot?

School just got out.

Those are all kids going home.

Look! That's no good!

Hey, Mister, none of you are wearing oversuits!

That's no good!

No good, you're no good!

Shut up! Who do you think I am?

Dunno.

This checks out.

It should. I swapped out the part for a new one.

I guess pandering to James was worth it after all.

I'm sorry for the trouble.

The shoemaker lady was the one who pandered, not me.

Thank you very much.

Still... This part looks unique.

It can't be...

Apparently, he was shot in the back just as we were celebrating your win.

Roberto planned to use this championship to redevelop the town,

with backing from Mooneyes.

This seems like the work of an opposing faction.

His demise seems fitting for him.

Thank you for letting me know.

Later.

"Feet are honest," right?

Speaking of which, what happened to Dan JD?

No idea.

He said he was going to look around the town,

so he'll turn up sooner or later.

Whoa! Awesome, awesome!

What do you think?

Basketball's pretty cool, huh?

Yeah! It's awesome!

Those kids' clothes are for protection,

but it's not so much for them as it is to keep them from damaging the town.

Protection for the town rather than the people, huh?

So of course they don't play basketball.

Awesome!

So cool!

Basketball is great!

Play some more!

Okay, wait here.

I'll show you something even better.

What's he up to?

Miss me?

Oh, awesome!

Mr. Dan, no!

Listen up, squirts.

This is how you play Basquash!

Keep your eye on the birdy!

Wh-What?! Hey!

What's going on?

It says, "Streetball is prohibited."

Early this afternoon on the streets of the Skybloom Kingdom's Rosette City,

a single tourist was arrested for committing terrorist acts with a Bigfoot.

Terrorist?

It was explained to him

that in this country, entry by Bigfoots into towns is prohibited!

And to add insult to injury, he played basketball in the street!

Yeah...

There wasn't time to stop him.

I should have accompanied you.

This is ridiculous!

Whatever happened to just giving a warning?!

We can't give people special treatment just because they're tourists,

even if they do carry moon passports.

Dan JD's trip to Mooneyes

is more than a Kingdom matter.

The fortunes of Earthdash and the moon depend on this trip.

Fortunes?

We are prepared to resort to diplomatic channels to request immediate acquittal.

I'm so pissed off!

Any luck getting Dan released?

It's as if we're talking to a wall right now.

Good grief...

Getting stonewalled with the letter of the law is no different on the ground than on the moon.

Even if James gets the head honchos on the moon to start pulling strings,

it'll take time.

Are we talking a week or two?

Next year at the earliest?

They say they'll grant him a pardon, but we have to wait until the king's birthday.

Before applying more pressure, we have to bear in mind this country has a monopoly on transport to the moon.

If we play our cards wrong and trigger some bogus investigation,

will that damage the plan?

This has become quite a thorn in my side.

We don't have any time to spare.

Excuse me.

Come in.

Welcome home, Flora.

Please help Dan, Sister.

That handsome young man, Slash, seemed strangely agitated.

Did he?

Amidst the confusion with the Lunar League and Championships,

the incident with your father stands out like a sore thumb.

I wonder if there are any answers there.

Are you serious?

Yeah!

Are you really serious?

I'm going to the moon no matter what.

You're so strapping and valiant now, Flora.

Hush, Sister.

It sounds like you're describing a boy.

You have traveled to many places and seen a great many things.

That's how I can feel it.

The living breath of many people...

Their wills and desires...

So your journey wasn't in vain.

Then, Sister...

Release your friend?

I cannot.

We are members of the royal family.

We must always act as examples for the people.

But if Mr. Dan is the legend—

Your journey is not yet over,

is it, Alan Naismith?

The long-awaited sisters' reunion!

I only wish I could watch them getting along so perfectly.

It's time for them to each walk their own path.

A rewrite of Rouge's upgrade?

You say she volunteered?

Y-Yes, b-because...

Even if it's a success, she may not come through safely.

It's her choice.

We'll pray for success.

Uh-huh...

How's Dan JD doing?

He's fine.

I'll let him know.

Wh-What's this?!

It's ironic.

We were just this close to going to the moon...

Blocked from all directions no matter what we do.

Sounds like James is at his wits' end too.

So the moon's great influence couldn't influence this.

If things go south, he'll have his hands full just trying to protect his standing.

He used to be a lot dumber, you know.

Dumber?

Yep. A total blockhead.

Shit!

Stand back!

Are you all right, young man?

We're not all right!

What the hell are you—?

Come, quickly!

The moon awaits you!

Come on!

Run! Hurry! Fly!

We can't fly, old dude!

Yeah, old dude! What on earth are you—

I am the man who will watch over the legend til the end...

Yes!

Mr. Perfect!

Par?

Hect?

Now hurry.

The Moon Cannon is set to fire at 9pm on the dot!

What about my Dangan?

Leave that to me!

Ow!

Stride forth!

To Cannon Park!

Stride forth, my ass!

Stop blowing stuff up all the time!

Emergency. Emergency.

The terrorist has escaped his cell.

Townspeople, please refrain from leaving your houses.

What?! A terrorist?!

They say he's running amuck!

The suspect is now fleeing down Second Avenue in a Bigfoot!

All Patrolfoots in the vicinity, arrest him!

It's no good! We can't catch up!

This area is off-limits to Bigfoots...

Disregard that!

Destroy any buildings that get in the way!

Dan! Take the big street coming up on your right and then head straight!

That's Cannon Park!

Roger!

Shit!

Hurry, Dan!

Launch is T minus 15 minutes!

I know!

Alan!

Thanks!

Mr. Dan, hurry!

I know!

Basquash!

What...?

Don't tell me...

"Basquash Arrives on the Moon With a Bang."

Idiot.

Please excuse the interruption to your schedules!

We ask for your cooperation in the search!

Oh, Princess!

Did something happen?

Your pardon. Please pass on.

Thank you.

As promised, I started the Moon Cannon's launch program.

That won't cause problems?

The countdown cannot be stopped.

That's all right.

Because, unless my eyes fool me,

Dan JD is the man of legend.

Bel, do you think you can get Dan here?

Yeah. I have a map, so I'll get it done somehow.

Good.

Hey Miyuki, how about your end?

We're ready to load!

Fuel?

Already filled!

Say the word and we're good to go.

But you know, that Mr. Perfect guy has gotta be...

Remember, we promised not to tell.

I see.

I agree, Mr. Perfect, that's an excellent idea.

Moon Cannon, beginning countdown.

T minus one minute.

Dan, the countdown started!

Got it! No problem!

One minute is all you have!

If you don't bust your butt, we're gonna leave you behind!

With that much time, it'll be easy!

I'm the Basquasher Dan JD!

Stop! Stop the car, please!

Princess, that's...

The thunderbolts of legend...

Yes. Turn left there, then one more spurt gets you inside the park.

We can't!

We're surrounded by the army!

Stop this futile resistance and surrender!

Hurry! There's no time!

M-Mr. Dan!

Hey! There's less than 30 seconds left!

What're you gonna do, stupid-head?!

They have cannons!

You'll die!

You'll die for sure!

No.

Here it comes.

Destroy!

Mr. Iceman!

The party can't start without your Destroys!

Here goes our first step to the moon!

Less than 20 seconds! Haul ass!

Duh!

Only 15 seconds to ignition!

It's no good! They won't make it!

Calm down, Miyuki!

You get on first!

But what about you three—

Hello? Hello?

Dammit!

Here we go, Alan, Iceman!

Okay!

T minus ten seconds.

First stage ignition!

Second stage ignition!

Third stage!

Fourth stage!

Fifth!

Sixth!

Seventh!

Shut up!

Eighth!

Ninth!

Tenth!

Mr. Iceman!

Sela!

What?

Don't even try saying you forgot I was here!

Here we go!

See you later, Gramps.

Trailer! You are ordered to pull over!

Pull over!

I'm gonna floor it. Okay?

Go for it!

Go where your journey takes you, Flora.

No... Alan Naismith.

Break a leg!

Save us, Mr. Perfect!

Oh, I heard a man named Mr. Perfect got up to some awful hijinks.

So how did the launch go?

They exited the atmosphere safely, on course to the moon.

Really?

Look, Dan!

Mooneyes is so close!

So this is Mooneyes! Awesome!

Yeah! Awesome!

Awesome!

I wonder if they know any other words?

Awesome!

It's true there aren't words for this.

Huh? How far are we going?

Hey, Miyuki, make us stop!

We'll go past Mooneyes!

Are we on the wrong orbit?

What?

It's the same as those ruins...

Ruins?

The ones we saw in the desert?

Amazing.

They're so big...

Hey, look at that.

Where?

There, where it looks like a quarry.

Moon Bigfoots...

What's that? A giant?!

What is it?

Dunno...

Maybe we saw something we shouldn't have.

What's that?

A huge-ass...

...hand?!

Hey, wait, just a...

Hey!

Aw, dammit!

The moon!

The moon!

sora wa takaku kaze wa nagarete

The sky is high, the winds are blowing.

tsuki no hadou wo yami ni toketeku

The moon's surge dissolves into the darkness.

dakara ima wa mae dake wo muki

So, right now, never look back.

BELIEVE YOUR LOVE kono michi wo

Believe your love and the path you're on.

nageki no seiza no shirabe wo

Engrave the song of the constellation of grief

mune ni kizamu soshite hashiri dasu

in your heart and take off running.

bokura wa itsumo nayami nagara

We're always unsure; we're always searching

setsuna no kibou wo sagashiteiru

for a fleeting moment's hope.

shiro to kuro oto ga majiwaru toki

When the sounds of black and white mix together,

kitto kitto hatenaku

I know it will be limitless.

hikari no saki ni mieru michi wo

I dreamed that we walked together

futari de aruku yume wo mita yo

on the path I can see beyond the light.

itoshisa sore wa wasureteita

Till now, I'd forgotten love.

kimi e no yakusoku

It's my promise to you.

So Miyuki and the rest are in Mooneyes right now...

For some reason, it seems that isn't the case.

They spun around and fell back?

Next time: Underground.

NEXT TIME

UNDERGROUND

UNDERGROUND

Under?

Every society has an underbelly.

Believe me.
