Sailor Suit and Machine Gun (セーラー服と機関銃)

A HARUKI KADOKAWA OFFICE & KITTY FILM CO-PRODUCTION

Oh, God...

Come on, step on it!

I can't go any faster!

Bullshit! Speed up or you're dead!

This is as fast as it goes!

This is? You're only doing 60.

Your speedometer goes up to 160.

That's the radio, brainiac!

Radio?

I'm shortsighted, you see.

Anyway, never mind that! Just hurry up! That way! Towards the bridge!

- Right? - Yes! Turn here!

Right! Come on, turn!

What are you doing?

Get moving! Now! You're so damn slow!

- How big's your family? - Huh?

- How many people? - Eight.

Eight? They can do without you, then.

Come on, hurry up.

I said, hurry up! That's it, through here.

Brother!

- Now you say it, too. - Brother!

That's it, very good. Maybe you can join us.

Alright, stop. Stop, I said!

That's him, over there.

Alright, here we are!

Don't forget your bag!

It might be best to notify his family.

Though they likely won't get here in time...

He has no family.

Any relatives?

Can't you save him?

Aren't you a doctor?!

All I can really do is reduce his pain...

Then do that.

Of course.

Hold on a second.

That needle's ridiculous!

I don't have any for humans.

- I'm a vet. - Wha...?

Sorry!

Hospital!

It said "hospital" on the sign!

Yes, "animal hospital"...

Moron!

- Sakuma. - Yes, boss?

- Masa. - Boss!

- Mei. - Yes?

- Hiko. - Yes!

I need to talk to you about my successor as head of the Medaka Family.

Yes, boss?

Let my nephew take over.

Where is he?

His name is...

These aren't tears

All this is

Is where the fickle rain

Has wet my cheeks a little

This is Algeria, at the end of the earth

And in the casbah night

The flower will bloom regardless

Izumi!

- Izumi! - Izumi!

What are you doing here? Don't you have class?

Who cares about class? It's your dad's funeral.

We wanted to pay our respects.

- Thank you. - Huh? Is it just you here?

I don't have a single relative.

And now I'm an orphan!

What about your dad's friends and colleagues?

I didn't tell anyone.

I wanted to see him off to heaven by myself.

You really loved him, huh?

Well, to tell you the truth, ever since Mom died,

I was like his daughter, wife, and mother, all rolled into one.

So I wanted to take good care of him, right until the very end.

Please place your hands together in prayer.

I'm all alone now.

But...

I'll be okay.

Who are you?

Are you Izumi?

Yes, Izumi Hoshi. Why?

My name is Mayumi. Nice to meet you.

Can I help you?

Can we go inside?

My father said I'm not to let strangers in.

I'm not a stranger.

Takashi talked about you all the time.

Takashi?

Takashi Hoshi. Your dad.

Nice place.

Don't touch that!

I don't want a stranger touching that.

Here.

What is it?

I'd like you to read it.

My dad wrote this?

"Dear Mayumi, since I have to travel overseas with my company,

"there's always a risk I'll have some kind of accident.

"Should the worst happen, I ask that you go and live with my daughter, Izumi.

"Izumi is a strong, sensible girl,

"but she's also very naive.

"Getting to know you will open up her outlook on life,

"which is what she needs. Please take good care of her.

"May you also be blessed with happiness.

"Forever yours, Takashi."

Excuse me,

but what was your relationship with my father?

Was it...

you know, like a man-and-woman thing?

To put it bluntly...

are you...

my father's mistress?

This blows!

- Tomoo! - Yes, sir?

Leave quietly if you don't want to paint.

Sorry, sir.

Shouldn't the nose be a bit bigger?

That looks nothing like her!

You're right, it does look nothing like her.

Alright, that's enough for me. I'm going home.

Hey, Izumi! Look!

- Who are they? - What are they doing?

It's dangerous here! What if one of them shoots at us?

Everyone, get back!

Can't you hear me?

- Out of the way! - Stay back!

What do they want?

Nobody knows! That's the weird thing.

Let's go! We're late already.

Alright! We'll escort Izumi home.

Through the back gate?

What else can we do?

I don't want to go that way!

What way do you want to go?

That way.

That way?

It's too dangerous!

This is our school, isn't it?

Why should we have to sneak out the back?

Hey, Izumi!

- Wait up! - Stop right there!

Get back here!

Turn around this instant!

Izumi Hoshi!

Come back here! Leave through the back gate!

Listen to your teachers!

Izumi Hoshi.

Correct?

We're here to pick you up.

Go on.

Excuse me.

Go on up.

Go on!

The Medaka Family?

Is that the yakuza or something?

The Medaka Family has an honorable history

that goes back to the days before the war.

Don't think we're like the scum you see these days.

"Fourth Chairman:

"Izumi Hoshi."

Um...

That's the same as my name.

It's you.

Allow me to explain.

So, my father had Medaka blood,

and the previous chairman named him as his successor? But then...

We finally found Takashi Hoshi only to discover he'd died in a car accident.

So we went to the crematorium, and saw a sweet young girl in a sailor suit.

And that

was me?

Right.

The previous chairman instructed that, failing the nephew,

we should find the next in line.

- At your service, boss. - Chairman.

Chairman.

Wait a minute! Hang on!

This is absurd!

Listen.

I'm a high school student. And I'm a girl, too!
