HYPNOSISMIC -Division Rap Battle- Rhyme Anima

And the winner is... Matenro!

Amemura, you little...

Ooh, scary!

She is majorly pissed.

She's a monster. That lady's not Beauty; she's the Beast. Eh-hehehehe.

All righty then, let's go! Dice! Gentaro!

Ah, I'm all tapped out.

"The losers leave quietly," as they say.

Ramuda! You might have lost, but you were still cute!

Ladies!

I did my best, you know!

Thanks for cheering us on!

See you later!

I'll take Beauties over Beasts any day of the week!

Oh, Ms. Beast~! I'm over here~!

Come and get me whenever!

Or I can go to you, if you like.

If you don't get a move on, I'll run off somewhere!

Why didn't I think of that before?

That's it!

I should've just run off somewhere.

Sorry, guys.

This is where I disappear.

After that, you guys can do whatever the hell you want.

But knowing those Chuohku bitches, they'll nab the both of them for sure.

And I wouldn't be surprised if they used torture to find out my whereabouts.

But no, it's my life that's on the line here.

Sorry guys, but I don't have the time to think about anyone but myself.

Ye have botched your lines.

The hero, with his cheerful and playful demeanor, is the life of the party

and gloriously defeateth his foes in the end.

There must be a splendor about it.

Aye, the hero of my tale is... thee.

Now that I think of it,

Gentaro's words sounded like they came straight out of a boys' comic

and weren't like him at all.

Here! You can have my 100,000 luckies!

Tsk. God damn it.

'Kay guys!

Listen up, you two!

'Sup?

Is something the matter, Ramuda?

We're leaving here right now.

Let's go back to Shibuya!

Huh? Let's watch the finals first.

Methinks the battle between Yokohama and Shinjuku is sure to be impressive.

Right about now, everyone's eyes are glued to the division battle, so Shibuya's a ghost town.

The slots are paying out never-ending jackpots.

No effin' way!

And the streets are quiet. It's the perfect environment to write your tales.

Hmm. Indubitably.

Anyhoo, the two of you are leaving here with me immediately!

It was my fault for trusting Amemura.

I will deal with him straight away.

There is nowhere for him to go.

It is almost time for the long-awaited final match. Let us enjoy ourselves.

When my attempt to lead Matenro into battle failed,

this stream of verbal abuse started going full blast inside my panic-stricken head.

I remembered all the crap that happened to me in the past.

Then I just got seriously pissed off.

And before I knew it...

...Doppomine the dissed stone guardian had totally lost it

and transformed into the "God of Dissing."

Man, I better pray to you.

Amen!

Nevertheless, such an abrupt fluctuation

must pose a considerable burden on your psyche.

Please bear that in mind.

I sure will, Doctor.

Um...

Thank you.

I'm... truly grateful.

That someone like me could make it this far--it's all thanks to you, Doctor.

It's the result of everyone's hard work.

Doppo. Hifumi. The two of you must be exhausted as well.

Why don't I go buy us something nutritious to drink?

Th-That's something we could--

Huh? Wh-What?

We should give the good doctor some alone time, if just for a little while.

Whenever he's with us,

he's always attending to our needs and never gets a moment's peace.

Plus, it looks like something's eating at him...

R-Really?

Are you worried?

--What about? --About your younger sister.

You saw her, didn't you? In the audience.

I might've been hallucinatin'...

Or you might not have been.

She's here, isn't she? Your younger sister. In Chuohku.

It seems she is.

People usually ask the police to search for missing persons, you know.

I shall also aid you in your search.

A search-and-rescue mission is no easy task when you're in enemy territory.

You guys helped me plenty in order to give that bastard Ichiro a good ass-whippin'.

So, we could help you once more...

I don't wanna get you mixed up in my family business.

You guys just stick to fightin' your own battles!

This is my mess, and I've gotta deal with it myself.

Where are you going?

Out for a smoke.

Nemu!

Nemu! Nemu! Nemu! Nemu!

No one except for Chuohku personnel is allowed beyond this point.

But Nemu just--my little sister just passed through here.

Lemme through!

I've gotta talk with Nemu...

--Please leave. --This ain't funny!

Step aside! You're in my way!

What the--?

Oh, it's you, Doc...

Let us head back.

If this altercation gets too intense,

I may no longer be able to fight you on stage.

Was there someone you wanted to see in Chuohku?

Everybody's got some kinda baggage in their lives...

I know what you mean.

I wouldn't call it "baggage," but...

I, too, have something similar.

Is there some link between your baggage and Chuohku too, Doc?

Well, I'm afraid I don't know.

But I suspected that a thorough investigation might lead me here.

I see... But anyway, my baggage ain't got nothin' to do with me bein' here.

It was MAD TRIGGER CREW--me and those guys that opened up these gates.

How far did the good doctor go?

It's almost time for the finals. He's cutting it a bit too close for comfort.

--Oh! Doc-- --Hold up, Doppomine!

Yes, I know what you mean.

I wouldn't be here either if it weren't for Matenro and our team solidarity.

Each of us relied on his own strength to fight his way ahead, by force or whatever.

It's crazy, but that's why we can trust each other to watch our backs.

Doc... it ain't my place to say this, but...

...the way we see it, your team's got a glarin' weak point.

It's those other two you chose to be your teammates.

Gulp!

No. It was their--or rather, our weaknesses

that enabled Matenro to make it to the finals.

Each of us has revealed our weaknesses, accepted them,

and compensated for them. This connects us.

It is because of this bond that we've made it this far as a team.

Strength and a bond, huh?

That total opposites like us would fight each other in the finals...

That don't sound like such a bad idea.

It should prove to be a fascinating battle.

Strength... If only I had been stronger,

perhaps I could have done something for him.

A bond, huh...

Were you and I connected?

Doc. I hate to tell ya this, but we're gonna crush you guys.

We accept your challenge.

The time has finally come, Brother Ichi.

This battle will decide the division battle champion.

I'm so bummed that we aren't down there.

But I'll burn this bummed-out feeling into my memory

and make sure that next time we'll be the ones standing on that stage.

Samatoki and Dr. Jakurai... This battle may show us what true strength really is.

The final battle has come at last!

We've observed many scenes involving them.

This is the final act.

Winners and losers alike, show us how strong your passion is!

The final match of the division rap battle will now begin!

Which of the teams will shine at its lyrical peak?

MAD TRIGGER CREW and Matenro will make their entrance!

Seeing that we've made it this far, let's give it our all and leave no regrets.

Sure! Just watch us, Doctor!

We'll show them how it's done!

We're gonna take 'em! So, you guys had better let loose all your strength!

Very well.

I plan to use up all my ammo.

And the first attack goes to... MAD TRIGGER CREW!
