To Be Heroine

Battle Against Overwhelming Odds

Where did Futaba-chan go?

This town isn't that big.

We'll find her if we keep looking.

She didn't run into your dad, right?

He's visiting the temple in the mountains today.

If it scares you that much,

then let go of my hand.

Min-chan!

This voice...

Oh, father.

Did someone rob you in the mountains and steal your clothes?

I didn't think you'd be here, too.

Who brought you to this world?

Hey, where are your clothes?!

Min-chan! I've missed you!

What are you doing?!

As long as you're here I feel safe.

Everybody's watching!

Oh, wow!

What are you looking at!

Your Oo and Paipai!

Are they doing okay?

What?!

Heart-Piercing Fist!

Your dad just got better,

if you punch him that hard he'll end up right back at the hospital.

I only used half-power. It won't kill him.

Futaba-chan!

Futaba-chan, are you okay?

Min-chan?

What's wrong?

Was somebody mean to you?

I'll get them for you!

That's Min-chan for you...

She's strong, no matter where she is.

First, let's calm down.

Hero-sama!

Hero-sama! Hero-sama! I finally found you!

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

The second rule is that you cannot tell her about who you really are,

and about this world.

So if you want to tell her how you feel,

you need to do it another way.

Got it! I'll give it a try!

Do you remember what happened at the riverside?

When I asked you to put my underwear on!

That's your dad, right?

What's gotten into him?

Aftereffects of a stroke, that's all.

Where were you?

You weren't answering your phone or reading texts.

I went to the secret base.

I was in a big hurry so I forgot my phone.

What was the hurry?

I got sad when I realized we were graduating soon...

I started remembering the past.

Oh, right. Who was that Hikaru guy you were talking about on the phone?

I just remembered...

An old, old friend.

He lives far away now.

Futaba, you okay?

Why didn't you answer the phone?

It's okay now. Don't worry.

Super-Oldguy, stay away.

I'm sorry.

You're the person I want to see the least right now.

Did I do something wrong?

No.

When I see you,

it makes me remember him.

Futaba-chan!

Hey, Super-Oldguy,

if you did something wrong you'd better apologize.

Futaba-chan, you're late.

Did you eat lunch?

You just ran out,

left your phone here, too.

What's wrong?

I-I'm fine.

I'm going back to my room to study.

What about lunch?

I can warm up the leftovers.

No thanks.

Reports from our spies.

A suspicious girl visited the Isago household.

Yes, understood.

Futaba-chan, you're still here?

Min-chan...

Look.

There's this weird letter...

He says he wants to meet me in the yard after school.

Fine.

I don't know who sent it,

but if we see them I'll give them a punch in the face.

That's him.

He's running!

I love you! I love you! I love you!

Scram, pervert!

Please date me!

Mister... why?

I realized that I can't think of anything but you,

and then I understood...

I can't stop my love for you.

He's been really weird ever since he came back from the mountains.

He kept talking to my bra this morning...

He's still following us.

Oh, no! They saw me!

Stop fidgeting on the other side of the light pole!

Hey, watch where you're driving!

You inside! Get out!

Apologize!

Hey, girls, we'll give you a ride.

Grab them!

Roger, boss!

What are you doing?

We need to talk to the girl behind you.

Don't worry.

If you just hand her over,

we won't hurt you.

Not happening.

As long as I'm around, you won't lay a finger on her.

You think you're a hero? In these days?

Don't worry, Hero-sama!

I'll help you!

You're the four leaders who rule this world, right?

I'll purify your darkness with the power of my light!

Is he sick?

You stupid old man, call the cops!

Shut up!

Damn it!

I'll kill you!

Min-chan!

I'm fine!

Take this!

I'll show you my summon.

Summon one, summon two,

chain summon!

Ultimate summon!

Shithead.

You're bothering us.

Why?!

I can't summon?

Then, I'll use my secret move...

Get away!

Min-chan!

Give it up already!

You'll regret it!

Evil will all disappear!

I've seen this feeling somewhere?

Ultimate technique!

Strip underwear!

Please don't!

You stupid old man!

Now's not the time for this!

Stop! Let me go!

Let us have the loud one. We'll have a good time with her.

Stop! I won't let you!

Go away!

You ugly pervert!

You.

Let them go.

Boss, he's bad news.

Damn it!

Get in the car!

Huh? O-Okay!

Let's get out of here!

Min-chan! Min-chan!

Hero-san, thank you.

Hey, who are you?

You're stark naked in the middle of town.

Dad, stop. He's not a bad guy.

Oh, you're Futaba-sama's father!

Hello, father-in-law!

What?!

I want to marry Futaba-san!

Which means that you'll be my father-in-law!

You pervert!

I dare you to say that again!

I'll blow off that pig-shaped head of yours!

Dad, stop!

He's not a bad guy.

Why don't you go arrest the real bad guy?

I don't know how many bad guys there are.

But anybody who hurts my daughter

is going to regret it.

Daddy...

I know we were old friends, but it's been years.

You could've called first.

Did you call me first, when you tried to kidnap my daughter?

Oh, that was your daughter?

Did you know who she was meeting with?

I don't.

But I'll make you regret it if you go after my daughter.

You've become arrogant since you made second in command at the station.

You haven't forgotten who gave you that job, have you?

You should be more grateful to me.

Don't be stupid!

I got a promotion for bailing you out of your mistake.

It was a fair trade.
