Bubuki Buranki: Hoshi no Kyojin

Taiwan

You called, sir?

Kaoruko, I have news on your father's whereabouts.

We've learned that he's currently at the Buranki nest.

What? How did he get there?

It's nothing less than shocking,

but it turns out there are still Buranki on Earth whose brains haven't died.

Your father borrowed the power of one

to go up to the Buranki nest and open the gate.

So you're saying he got in a Buranki that had no contract with a human

and went to Treasure Island in it?

Precisely.

A Buranki with a functioning brain could open the gate with no problem.

That's way beyond anything I imagined.

Typical Dad. I guess I should've expected that from him.

Though it's still unclear how he negotiated with a conscious Buranki.

Knowing my dad, he probably had a few drinks with it.

And so the two lovers found one another again.

How truly lovely.

They're the textbook married couple.

Marriage is the oldest and most sacred of all the contracts

two people can exchange.

Do you want to see your parents?

Not really!

Kaoruko, there is a way to see your parents.

Just bring them down here to Earth.

Th-This is...

What?

Well, this is the result of our analysis...

And it looks like Entei has a brain— no,

something resembling nerve tissue, acting as a brain.

What does that mean?

Doesn't Entei need a human because its brain has already died?

If that's true...

How were Reoko and Kaoruko able to control Entei?

I don't have a clear answer for that at the moment.

For us to fully control Entei henceforth

will require the elimination of uncertainties.

You understand that, yes?

Y-Yes, ma'am.

If I can have just a bit more time to do that...

Time, eh...

I hear this place was once an execution site.

Did you know that?

Yes. It's pretty creepy, isn't it?

Perhaps that's why several people still go missing here each year.

What's more, it seems that only incompetent engineers disappear.

Well, get back to work. And show me results!

Y-Yes, ma'am!

Sealed

Just bring them down here to Earth.

Is that possible?

Not in one leap, but if we give them steps, yes.

First, I need you to guide your brother to the Buranki nest.

Azuma? Why him?

Since he has the heart of Oubu, the only Buranki

on Earth besides Entei that can still function on Earth,

I need him to enter Oubu's cranium and

open the gate to the Buranki nest.

If that's what you need done, I'll do it!

How? You don't have a Buranki heart, let alone a Buranki.

Once the gate is open, the rest is easy.

Maxim and his team will bring it down from the sky.

Bring it down? You mean Treasure Island?

My parents won't be hurt if you do that, will they?

Of course they won't.

Breaking the barrier around that island would be far more difficult.

All right.

And I'll really be able to see my mom and dad?

I swear it on my life.

Are you awake?

I like that look in your eyes! You are gutsy, indeed!

As I'd expect of Kazuki Migiwa's daughter.

You're going to pilot Entei one more time.

And you're going to kill every last Bubuki user.

Keep killing and killing until you lose track of the body count,

and you're sure to become a hero.

Just as mass murderers throughout

history have come to be known as heroes.

You scum!

What are you gonna do?!

No! No! Stop it!

Daughter of the witch, with her loathsome blood in your veins...

I've created a fitting role just for you.

Long story short,

it should be possible

to fuse Kaoruko's brain with the nerve tissue in Entei's cranium

and control it from the outside.

So you're saying as long as we have Kaoruko from the neck up,

we can control Entei.

Yes, provided that the bonding of the severed head to Entei

is carried out with utmost speed and precision.

Then cut off Kaoruko's head with the giant sickle the Russian kids left behind.

I selected you as my most trusted aide in spite of much opposition.

I'd like to see results from you that justify my choice.

I will not fail to live up to your expectations.

We will exterminate every Buranki user and their bloodline,

and wipe all Buranki from the face of the earth.

We must restore ownership of this world to humans.

Reoko-sama's weakness may be a result

of her separation from Entei.

So it's only Entei's power that keeps her body going?

Azuma...

Shh.

Sorry, Azuma.

Reoko-sama is asking for you.

Well, we'll leave the rest to you.

Your father was a tough man.

He probably never gave much thought to his own health.

After he came back here, I could only spend a short time with him.

I wonder if your father was happy.

I hope he was.

He got to be with you in the end.

I know he was happy.

BUBUKI BURANKI

The Gentle Giants of the Galaxy

You should be laughing at the shape I'm in, son of Migiwa.

When separated from Entei, I am so powerless.

I am only keeping myself alive

by acting as Entei's heart.

How pathetic.

And I'm supposed to stop Guy?

What is this Guy person trying to do?

He wants to resurrect the Buranki's progenitor.

That's what he told me.

Their progenitor?

Guy called it the Buranki "Deus Magna."

He said it was essentially the god of Buranki,

who gave life to all Buranki on Earth.

Guy hopes to use it to rebuild this world.

It's said that the resurrection of Deus Magna

can be brought about using that comet and the Buranki nest.

Comet?

How can that comet and Treasure Island...?

I don't know.

In any case, we have little time remaining.

Guy said the comet will fall in only seven days.

That soon?!
