As the adults basked in tranquility,
the young girls were plunged straight into the Sengoku period.
The national Bancho federation, Zenchura,
had launched a reign of terror and violence,
swiftly seizing control of 80 percent of the middle schools nationwide.
However, one girl rose against the tide, ready to crush their evil ambitions.
Her name was Asuka Kuraku.
Asuka Group, present!
THE GLORIOUS ASUKA GROUP!
Swift as the wind.
Silent as the forest.
Conquer like fire.
Immovable as the mountain!
GREAT TEN ZENCHURA LEADER FURINKAZAN
The only group left going against
Zenchura in Nishi-roku, is you guys.
Aphids should shrink into darkness like insignificant beings.
APHID BULLIED CHILD
Zenchura will be in charge of Nishi-roku going forward.
No one's foolish enough to defy us now.
There is one.
What!?
Asuka.
CRUSH! FURINKAZAN
You're pretty serious about going to the zoo.
THE ZOO SCHOOL
Hey, wait up a second!
You're a woman, right? Try being a bit more sociable.
What's that got to do with anything?
You won't ever get a boyfriend with that attitude.
Oh, shut up.
You're... Asuka Kuraku, right?
Please...
Come to Nishi-roku.
Nishi-roku's being overrun by Zenchura.
You're one of the Gold Ribbons, right?
I thought you guys were the biggest
Sukeban group in Nishi-ku.
Why are you coming to such a small group like ours?
Out with it. I can't stand those who dwell on their thoughts.
Despite our collective strength, Zenchura remains in Nishi-goku
because everyone is too afraid to confront them.
They just cower in the corner.
Well, they sound like aphids to me.
Your actions in Nishisan-ku will rally them if you come.
Please, come to Nishi-roku!
You goon!
You're asking us to go through Nishi-goku.
That's Furinkazan's turf. It won't be a cakewalk.
It's your problem, you deal with it.
Let's go.
What is it!?
Let's go have some fun in Nishi-roku.
Come on, Asuka, what can you do on your own?
Well, I gotta at least try!
Listen here...
She wants us to pass through Nishi-goku,
deep in Furinkazan territory.
On top of that, those guys got a severe beating.
Getting to Nishi-roku is a pipe dream.
That's exactly why we're going through Nishi-goku.
Seriously, what's with you?
From Nishi-goku, there are only five routes...
that lead to Nishi-roku.
The shortest way to Gold Ribbon's island
is the Akebono Bridge here.
But that place's outta the question.
Furinkazan's on Chuo Dori leading up to that bridge.
Next up, is this old ship bridge.
To get there, you can take this side road.
The third way is a tunnel under the highway.
The other two are this big park
and this factory that went under last year.
But to get there, we have to go through Chuo Dori.
Well, one potential candidate is this tunnel under the highway.
It's the furthest of the five routes,
but we can take all the safe back roads.
Hey, Asuka! Are you even listening!?
That's all too complicated.
Let's just waltz right in.
Dumbass. Are you that eager to die?
I'll explain again, so listen carefully.
No thanks.
That figures. I'd just be wasting my time.
Shut it!
Asuka!
Hey, Asuka!
Come here a sec!
So adorbs!
Hey, listen. I bought this for you.
What'd you think?
It's a bit childish, no?
Not at all!
I got this from the women's section.
Figured it'd suit you!
Why don't you wear it, then?
You're such a joker!
Lovely!
Always so happy-go-lucky.
Asuka Kuraku...
ZENCHURA LEADER HIBARI
Zenchura despises the weak, so we eliminate them
while fostering the strong to greatness.
GREAT TEN ZENCHURA LEADERS AOI
Kurenai was taken to Ranjuku,
and Aoi was defeated.
Furinkazan, I leave Nishisan-ku
in your hands.
Yes, ma'am.
I hope you'll continue to work with the grace of Queen Hibari
and do your best for Zenchura.
-Furinkazan. -Yes, ma'am.
You mustn't forget these words.
Zenchura has no use for the worthless!
No use for the worthless...
What is it!?
What!?
Asuka and Miko were spotted on Nishi-goku!
-NISHI-GOKU -Is this really needed?
The way you're dressing is too conspicuous.
Zip it. If it bothers you so much, just mimic my style.
Look, don't I look great?
Maybe if you fixed your face.
You snotty brat!
I can't stand you.
-Guess that's just how it is. -Guess that's just how it is.
Look who showed up...
You alone?
Can you stop flaunting yourself?
I can take you on by myself!
You'll need all four of you.
Would you quit it already!?
Silence!
She's serious!
I knew we weren't gonna make it!
-That's wild! -Is she even human?
Who told you to come in here!?
Asuka!
Ouch...
Asuka!
Asuka, don't think you can escape!
Call up your buds! We're crossing the Akebono Bridge!
Hurry!
Let's go down the side street.
We'll go to Chuo Dori. We'll cross the Akebono Bridge.
Seriously, I can't keep up with you.
I can't stick with someone rocking a dirty face.
Oh, crap!
Damn...
I told you Chuo Dori was a bad idea!
You're the one who led us off course!
-What, you serious!? -You wanna go!?
Silence!
Any trespasser will be eliminated!
This is Furinkazan territory!
More like a territory for losers!
Silence! Queen Hibari chose this territory for us!
Is that really so?
Seems to me like you guys are merely pawns in Hibari's game.
W-What did you say!?
Blindly following orders will make you look foolish.
Enough!
Asuka, Miko,
there's no escape! Surrender now!
Come on out!
Get outta here!
Who do you think you are, acting like the law?
You outta your rocker?
This is the main street.
Who has the right to dictate and control?
Miko, let's go straight to the Akebono Bridge.
Say what!? Asuka Kuraku's on her way here!?
-I just got word! -How many people is she bringing?
She's just coming with Miko.
What? Are you serious!?
A group of two isn't gonna solve anything!
Seriously!
Want some, Asuka? It'll help with the pain.
I'll take pain over gaining weight!
Skinny girls are out of style, you know.
Hayashi!
Hey, that was my ice cream!
You're through!
You wish!
-How long's the Akebono Bridge? -Not long.
Damn you, Asuka...
You've got guts. But this is the end for you.
What's your business here?
Crossing the Akebono Bridge towards Nishi-roku.
This is as far as you'll go.
Watch me navigate it with these two legs.
Asuka, today you will witness what happens to those
who defy Zenchura!
Asuka!
Might makes right, it's the world's order.
You're finished!
Asuka!
AKEBONO BRIDGE
Kaze!
-Where's Asuka!? -She's down.
She's such a cretin!
Then that means no one's getting across this bridge!
I'm sure she's crawling back to Nishisan-ku
with her tail between her legs.
Unfortunately, I don't have a tail!
Behind the truck!
They're not there!
Asuka Group, present!
Asuka, that's no fair!
I promised I'd make it on two legs. I always keep my word.
Use that brain of yours while it still ticks.
NISHI-ROKU
The Asuka Group made it through into Nishi-goku!
Hoo-ray!
Asuka!
I realized why you were fixated on crossing that bridge.
You wanted to put on a show for the Gold Ribbon, was that it?
-That hurt! -What's got you so uptight?
Precocious child!
Shut your face!
Now we just need to see if those kids will play along.
That Asuka...
She's got guts.
She's as good as dead.
Gold Ribbon are nothing but cowards.
Going to Nishi-roku won't do them any good.
When the rest of the Gold Ribbons come out,
we'll stomp them all together!
That's right, we've got a chance!
We gotta call everyone in right away!
It's time for the Gold Ribbons to battle Zenchura!
Calling them now seems a bit belated, don't you think?
-What's the deal with you? -Let's go for it.
Asuka...
How does she stay so composed, aware of our imminent threat?
It's a trap, it's gotta be!
What now?
Let's check it out.
Here you go.
What's this?
A ceremony for us?
Even aphids have guts. When needed, they act with precision.
Unlike mere puppets blindly following orders.
All of us have a passionate core.
Asuka, this time, you're dead.
We're all gonna die someday.
That's why we do what we like!
What are you after?
I just hate the kinda life
where you're hunched against the wall.
Live with zeal and enthusiasm until your last breath!
BETTER TO LIVE A FERVENT LIFE TILL DEATH...
THAN SIMPLY LIVING AND DYING
You really are an idiot.
That was a nice cup of tea.
What about the Gold Ribbons?
They will surely stand.
Those aphids?
Damn you, Asuka...
Zenchura has no use for the worthless!
Asuka managed to resuscitate the worthless.
How!?
I like her style.
There you go again, getting fond of people.
Got me there.
Asuka, I'm sick of this.
Nobody asked you to tag along.
I saved you from getting pancaked back in the third district.
You were dragging your feet! My proud outfit got totally tattered.
When, where, and who was dragging their feet!?
You're just putting on a front!
-You weasel... -Don't hit me!
On this day, the Asuka Group established itself in Nishi-roku.

Love eludes me when we exchange smiles
Like a shirt askew by one button
In the building's shadow under the moon, our eyes meet
My heart a spinning roulette of words
A kiss like earnest confusion, romance
Smart, troublemaker, unrequited love
Tell him next time Won't you kiss me?
Never give up!
Get ready! Get a chance, lady! With the power of your dreams
Get ready! Get a chance, lady! Don't hesitate!
However, words once spoken, are now gone
W-What should I do?
