Terra Formars (テラフォーマーズ)

This special underground theater show here in Bangkok, Thailand,

that we have been bringing to you ladies and gentlemen,

is finally drawing to a close.

Finally, tonight, in the year 2619, the strongest man on land...

oh, I beg your pardon.

The strongest man underground shall be decided.

So they actually do things like this.

I've seen it a hundred times in manga.

It might happen a lot in manga, but...

In reality, there are company presidents and oil tycoons

that make millions and billions in a month.

The people here

are that kind of out-of-this-world rich.

When people like that get together,

it might still be impossible to stop time,

but putting on a show where people kill each other is easy, huh...

So they're not dead yet?

Yeah.

First, in the blue corner, is this man!

The supernova twenty-something with a bit of a shady past.

Hi-za-ma-ru!

Hizamaru Akari!

He's 177cm tall and weighs 91 kilograms!

Citizenship is Japan, and the martial art he practices is karate.

So that's him...

Mutation

His childhood sweetheart, who grew up with him in the orphanage,

is plagued with some unknown illness and suffering!

Does he have to say this every time?

The only cure is to have an organ transplant.

Hizamaru-kun wants the prize money for her sake, no matter what!

Yeah!

That's right! You got that, you rich bastards?!

Well done... and for some bitch you haven't even screwed.

But his opponent in the final round is a strong one.

The undefeated king since this tournament started...

Brian Chaomy-kun, age 14!

He stands 251cm tall and weighs in at 342 kilograms!

His citizenship is American, and he doesn't practice any form of martial arts.

He is a natural-born fighter.

What the hell is this?!

Brian-kun here would usually be omnivorous,

but he's only been fed human flesh for quite a long time.

So you guys

never had any intention of letting me win.

Damn it!

Yuriko! I'm coming to save you now!

Hey, audience!

Get riled up!

I'm going to shatter this absurd, scripted scenario!

The likelihood of this succeeding is slim, but...

You know, too,

right?

Go home!

Is watching me waste away that

amusing?!

Coming to visit me day after day?!

You...

Who the hell do you think you are?!

You're just a monster!

Just go home!

This isn't normal.

We came here to see this?

If everything we researched is correct,

the one who isn't normal is actually Hizamaru Akari.

Ah, Akari-kun...

I said something really terrible last week.

Well, maybe it was perfect timing.

Eh?

If I keep holding onto something so childish,

I won't be able to keep up with the fashion of the other college students.

We found one.

We found a possible donor.

You're kidding...

It's the truth. It's at a hospital in another country.

Now picture it, Yuriko. You're almost there.

What do you want to do as soon as you're better?

I want to eat ramen.

Got it. Let's do it.

I want to go snowboarding.

Yeah, I can't wait until winter.

I want to try alcohol.

Sure, just don't drink too much.

I want to go to Space Land.

Yeah, I'm sure it's not too crowded right now.

And... and... and...

Why? Why are you so nice, Akari-kun?

Of course I am.

I... You're the one who gave me my kindness.

Ever since that day.

I lo—

You're very precious to me.

Because you're my friend.

Huh? He got up...

An old-fashioned knock out!

But what's this?

Wh-What...

Could this be...?

I can't believe it...

H-Hizamaru Akari...

turned it around and won!

So there was one more.

A child that was born after the surgery...

What?!

You promised! It was a promise!

S-Stop...

Operate on Yuriko!

W-We sold the girl...

Wha— To who?!

You bastard...

Bring Yuriko back right n—

She died.

We did what we could,

but the day before yesterday...

Don't.

Lie. To me!

These people never intended to find a donor for you.

They're just assholes.

By the time we found out about her existence

and went to get her, it was already too late.

I'm sorry we didn't make it in time.

What... the hell...

Give her back.

Give her back...

Give...

Give her back!

Akari-kun.

Would you like to save children that have the same disease as her?

Sorry for the late introductions.

I'm the commanding officer

of the United Nations Aeronautics and Space Administration U-NASA's Mars Exploration Team, Komachi Shokichi.

Likewise, I'm the second in command, Michelle K. Davis.

U-NASA?

That's right.

The disease that stole the life of your childhood friend

is no ordinary infectious disease.

It's a virus that came from outside the Earth.

The virus will continue to spread, and many people will die.

In order to stop that, in two years

we will fly to Mars.

Mars?

We need you. We need your strength,

and that raw rage you have inside you.

My friend died on Mars.

Anyone else could only comfort you for the pain you're feeling.

However, people like us, who have the same piercing rage boiling inside us...

We have been bound by a fate stronger than blood,

and become a swarm.

Let's go.

I loved you,

Yuri-chan.

I really did.

I...

I...

Man... I wonder why...

I'm so mad at everything.

Sorry, Michelle-chan. You had some spare sunglasses, right?

Can I borrow them?

Come on, hurry!

I'm sorry I wasn't thinking and put -chan at the end of your name!

I don't care.
