Come on, Otaru! Do you love me?!

I sure do, Bloodberry.

Oh, Master Otaru. Do you love me?

Of course, Cherry.

Hey, Otaru. How about me?

Of course I love you, Lime.

Then, tell us...

Who among the three do you love the most?

Huh?

Come on, Otaru! Tell us!

What's the matter with you?

When you think about it, Lorelei's been saved...

...so we've done our duty.

Which means that I'm free to make Otaru my own.

I want to be Otaru's bride!

Come on, Otaru! Come on...!

Hey, hey...!

Hey! You better watch what you say!

You're making Otaru uncomfortable!

I'm the one who Otaru loves the most!

How dare you stand on the table!

Get off the table!

Don't let them get away with this!

How dare he always gets in the way!

He's such a pest!

It was just a dream...

A dream...

Under the Plasma Sky

Huh? A cold?

I think I caught a chill...

Oh, my. That's a problem.

Do you have a fever?

Not really.

She's so nice...

Okay, next patient!

I have a cold too.

Again? How about the others?

Me too... Me too...

You all have colds?

It's sure going around.

Anyway, I was wondering...

...what do you like to eat?

Food? I like anything you can eat.

Oh, good.

I picked something up on my way here.

Have some if you want.

It's a steam bun! Thank you!

I got you some dumplings.

I got some cake.

Wow! Look at all the food!

Come on, Lime. Have some.

Yeah!

Is it good?

It's excellent!

Good. Good.

You're so cute, Lime.

That smile makes me feel good.

Idiots!

What cold?! You're perfectly healthy!

I'm sorry!

I'll see you later, Lime!

And I'm sure you're all faking it!

Go home!

Or I'll break your arm and make you a real patient!

Lousy bums...

What do you mean by faking?

It means they're not sick.

I think they like you.

You have a soul, you see.

Me?

Wow! It looks so good!

Excellent!

So this is a Japoness pancake.

Here we go!

It's really good.

What's wrong, Raven?

You really are flat-chested.

Cut it out!

It's flat just like the grill.

You're wrong.

It's burning! It's burning!

Oh, no! Saved in the nick of time!

You're flat-chested, but you're a good cook...

...so I'll marry you when I grow up.

Marry? What's that?

That's when a man and a woman live under one roof.

And...

Don't be so precocious, stupid!

Ow! Ow!

My skull is cracked!

I'm gonna die...!

Oh brother!

Looks like fun.

Brother Shonen...

These kids are always fooling around.

It's all thanks to you.

Huh?

These kids never laughed before you arrived.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Brother Shonen...

Well, I've got to go out.

Can you mind the temple?

Sure. We'll see you later!

See ya!

Don't come back!

Oh, what's wrong, little Kotaru?

You're a good, little boy...

Lucky Kotaru...

Why do you say that?

You're the one who named him.

Brother Shonen gave us our names.

You guys...

Hey!

You want to try cooking the pancakes?

What? You mean us?

Really?!

Yes, I'll show you how.

All right! Yay!

You know what?

What is it, Raven?

Who goes first?

Huh?

Who's first to cook the pancake?

You have to decide.

Me?

Yeah.

Let's see...

Well, let's start with Kazu.

Yay! All right!

Here.

Pancake! Pancake!

Hey! What are you doing?!

Raven!

Raven! Wait!

What are you doing, Raven?!

Get down!

Raven!

Raven!

What is it?! What are you angry about?!

Did you want to go first?!

You're the one who told me to choose!

If you wanted to go first, you should've said so!

Come down! It's dangerous!

Raven!

All right then. You can go first.

How's that?

There won't be any pancake left unless you come down.

All right, then!

You just stay there if you want!

You can stay there forever!

Stupid Cherry...

I'll have that!

Here you go, Lime.

Thank you!

Very popular, I hear.

What is?

You are!

I hear there's a flood of patients since you came.

Oh, you mean the fakers.

Fakers, huh?

But I think I understand how they all feel.

I don't know...

...but, when I talk to you, I feel nice and warm inside.

You're an unusual marionette.

Warm inside?

Are you sick?

Sick?

Well, maybe I am. Who knows? It's hard to tell.

What a strange man.

Hello there!

Oh, it's you. I've got your order.

Great!

Hey, it's you!

Huh?

How did the round moss work?

Did you save your friend?

Round moss?

Friend?

Huh?

Well, I don't think you remember me.

Here you go.

Looking at you, it seems like it all worked out.

See you.

Thanks!

You know him?

No.

I guess he got the wrong person...

...I mean, wrong marionette then.

It's a mistake.

A mistake...

It's lunch already.

You want to have some lunch, Lime?

What?! Really?!

Yay! It's lunch time! It's lunch time...!

A young man named Otaru Mamiya, with 3 marionettes.

He should've been back by now.

Perhaps they've lost track of time as they enjoy their vacation.

I don't think there's anything to worry about.

I hope so.

Well, I'll see if we can track them down.

I'd appreciate that.

Don't worry...

...we'll find them soon enough. The young man and the marionettes.

I thank you for all your cooperation.

Good-bye.

Who's that man?

Luchs!

When did you arrive?

That's Minister Yan of Xian.

He manages the affairs of state...

...ever since General Han suddenly died.

In tracking some unusual moves by that General Han...

...we've found something out in New Texas.

What do you mean?

We don't know.

Just that something is about to happen in Xian.

What?

Raven! I'm sorry about before!

I apologize, so please come down!

You must be hungry!

Look, I saved some pancakes just for you!

What are you trying to do?!

I hate Japoness pancake!

Raven!

I hate you!

Raven...

What's wrong, Cherry?

Brother Shonen!

It's no laughing matter!

Raven wanted you to pick him.

I know that.

Then instead of asking me to choose...

...he should've said he wanted to go first.

That's not the point.

Raven has a crush on you.

He wanted you to choose him.

To have you choose him out of all the kids.

But you didn't choose him.

That's why he's sulking.

I see...

But what can I do to get him down?

Tell him you'll marry him.

What?!

Then I'm sure he'll come down.

But...

Brother Shonen...

All right!

Raven!

Listen to me, Raven.

I want to talk to you.

Well, uh...

You plan on staying there forever?

It won't be easy, you know. Think about it.

It's hard to eat up there, and sleeping would be pretty tough.

What are you saying? Just relax.

Okay...

Anyway, please come down!

I...

I really like you!

Raven!

Yes. I really like you. So, let me make a promise to you.

When you grow up...

...when you grow up...

...I want to... I want...

Come on, Cherry.

You can do it.

When you grow up, I want to...

I want to buy you a prairie dog with pedigree papers.

I'm sorry, Brother Shonen.

What was that?

Don't mess with me, you stupid!

I'm never coming down!

He might actually never come down.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't say it.

I don't know why, but...

...I just couldn't say I'll marry him.

Even if it was a little, white lie.

Oh, no!

Raven! A thunder storm is coming!

If lightening hits the tree, you're finished!

We know how you feel, so get down from the tree!

Raven!

Shut up! I'm not coming down!

Raven!

No way!

Cherry!

I'm okay. I'm okay...

Raven...

Cherry...

...what are you doing?

Cherry...

Stay away.

Stay away!

Stop that, Raven!

Don't go down the branch!

Raven!

Cherry!

Cherry!

Cherry...!

Raven...

Please, Raven.

Cherry...

All right, I'll come down.

So, don't do anything crazy.

Raven...

Come on, let's go down together.

Okay.

Raven!

Raven!

Lightning hit again.

Ow, ow, ow...!

Sorry.

Be careful. You were crushing my bones.

Sorry.

Doctor?

Huh?

Humans have it tough.

A marionette can always get parts replaced when something's wrong...

...but humans don't have it so easy.

That's right.

Did you ever think you wanted to be a marionette?

Never.

Why?

Being human can certainly be tough...

...but that's what makes us interesting.

Interesting?

Yeah.

Is it interesting now, doctor?

Oh, yeah. It sure is.

That's great.

Doctor!

What's the panic.

Someone's collapsed out in front.

Why aren't there any clues to this.

Where are you? Lime, Cherry and Bloodberry?

Sorry to make you wait, Otaru.

Where were you?

I'll tell you later.

Let's just get out of here.

They're following us?!

Hurry!

Huh? There's no one here.

What? I guess he's gone.

Where the hell did he go?!

Let's make sure we get him!

Yeah!

What was that about?

Was there someone here?

Yeah, I'm sure of it.

Hey, doctor. Look.

It'll hurt a bit. You just have to take it.

Hold on!

It hurts! I'm going to die!

Stop it!

You can do it.

I'll be right here. So, don't worry.

Cherry...

It was just a dislocated shoulder.

And a sprained foot. It'll heal quickly.

Thank goodness.

Did you say you were Cherry?

Yes, what about you?

I'm Lime.

I was so shocked that there was another marionette with a soul.

I was surprised too.

Oh, yeah...

Can I ask you something strange?

Something strange? What?

Do you know what round moss is?

Round moss?

Let's see...

Oh, well. It's no big deal.

What about it?

Well...

Somebody mistook me for another marionette today...

...so I thought maybe they thought I was you.

Well, let's go home, Cherry.

Right.

Well then...

I'll see you again. We should go out sometime.

Sure.

Are we going to hit this next, boss?

Yeah, it's a popular circus.

I'm sure they've got a fortune in their safe.

I'll bet. You sure found a good one to go after.

How about a little pre-celebration?

Hey!

Hey! Can't you hear me, you piece of scrap!

Get us some booze!

Circus?

Circus...

It's a pre-celebration. We'll let you have some too.

Have as much as you want.

Idiot!

Hanagata...

...don't you know what you've done?!

What?

It's just bread!

We're not thieves!

We may be fugitives, but we haven't done any crimes!

Things may be tough, but that's no reason to become a criminal! Idiot!

Hanagata! What're you doing?!

Just cut it out!

How dare you get high and mighty at a time like this!

I don't want to do this either!

Who do you think I'm doing it for?!

It's over.

I've had enough of this!

I'm not the one with the arrest warrant.

It's you!

It's not me!

Do what you want! You can go off on your own!

With that attitude!

Huh?

Otaru?

Oh, my... Otaru...

Oh, come on! I was just kidding!

Don't go alone! Come on!

Otaru!

Otaru! Come back!

Who am I?

Why am I in a criminal gang?

Circus?

It gives me a familiar feeling. Maybe I'll remember if I go!

Something important about me.

You are...!

I remember! Akashi Shirase.

I remember you!
