This is a story of love and friendship among girls
who challenge the evil Zenchura organization,
to battle for control
of middle schools across Japan.
Asuka Group, present!
THE GLORIOUS ASUKA GROUP!
TAIZAN ACADEMY
PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
Who's there!?
Guys, let's use the school festival to spread the word
about ousting Zenchura.
-Yes! -Yes!
C'mon, do you really think people will turn up for this?
You can rest assured, everything's taken care of.
This year's school festival will have a special surprise.
-Surprise? -Surprise?
You don't mean...
You two are so simple-minded.
You're right, no way that would attract the crowd.
President, excuse us!
ZENCHURA WAS HERE
The golden statue of Ninomiya Sontoku is gone!
Guys, go search! Quickly!
What happened?
SURPRISE IN THE DARK!
That Ninomiya Sontoku statue is of pure gold
crafted by the inaugural president of Taizan Academy.
And has been kept away from the public eye
since the end of the war.
-Pure gold, huh? -Ninomiya Kintoki, huh...
It's Sontoku.
Failing to showcase it at tomorrow's festival
would damage our reputation.
So that's what you meant by a special surprise.
Ninomiya is the centerpiece, huh.
Well, good luck with that.
-Miko, where are you going? -Home to nap.
Maybe I'll do the same.
You can't!
I'm seeking your help in finding this Ninomiya Sontoku statue!
Dealing with theft is police business.
I'm not even enrolled at Taizan Academy.
I'm calling it quits!
The festival's a sure bust without the Ninomiya statue centerpiece.
But Miko and Asuka, don't you worry about a thing.
-Who says we are? -I'll take full responsibility
and withdraw myself from the school.
I bet the world won't be kind to a middle school dropout.
Nevertheless, there's simply no other choice, is there?
I'm facing the consequences of my own actions.
Now, just a minute!
This is no reason to drop out of school.
Don't get so worked up about this.
Leave me alone!
It's all over...
Fine! We'll try to help in any way we can, okay?
Lucky me!
ZENCHURA HEADQUARTERS
Hibari's mansion
is constantly patrolled by guards,
with Dobermans at the back.
Moreover, it's surrounded by tall borders.
This means, our only way in...
is through the front entrance.
We'll be caught immediately!
Don't worry, there'll be no dog hunt.
Distract the enemy using these firecrackers,
then confidently make your way in through the front entrance.
The timer is set for three minutes.
How the heck did Harumi gather all of this stuff in one night?
Is this plan really gonna work, though?
Well, it's too late to turn back now.
I can't believe Harumi left us on our own.
I'm the strategist.
My role is to provide the brains in the operation.
Let's move.
-Is it set? -Yeah.
All ready to go.
In 30 seconds, Hibari's mansion will erupt in chaos.
15 seconds.
10 seconds.
-Five, four, three... -Five, four, three...
-two, one... -two, one...
It's a total bust!
Harumi's stuff was really just for show!
Once you get inside Hibari's garden,
the rest will be a cakewalk.
Next comes the rope.
You can get in through the skylight.
Shoot into it with this harpoon.
-It didn't go in! -You're kidding!
Intruders! Search the area!
-Asuka, stop! -How the hell can I!?
Come on, don't bring yourself to a sudden halt like that!
I'm flattered that you've brought so many companions.
Totally.
So what now, Asuka?
We'll all go to hell together.
That's right!
Look, I'm gonna light it up.
Come closer, I'm about to ignite this!
This is genuine dynamite!
We promise it's not chocolate this time!
Get back!
Now why did you have to say that!?
I mean, I had no idea if it was chocolate or dynamite!
Move it, Asuka!
What are we gonna do?
What the hell, man!?
Asuka, don't just stand there, hurry!
You're a sneaky bitch, you know that?
-I see them! -Hurry!
You took advantage of me.
What are you doing, Asuka!?
I'd opt for Zenchura over a trickster like you.
-Asuka! -Ouch!
-Asuka! -Miko, just go home and nap!
Come on, don't be that way!
A... suka.
How shall we dispose of Asuka?
Let's wait for Queen Hibari first.
Yes, ma'am.
And with this...
I have one more present awaiting Queen Hibari.
Queen Hibari?
Speaking. Any disturbances in my absence?
No.
Though, I do have a wonderful item...
in store for you.
I look forward to it.
You'll be seeing me in 30 minutes.
This shall secure Queen Hibari's absolute trust.
Never trust a kid.
I guess this intrusion was a success, in a way.
Asuka!
Miko! What are you doing here?
I came here to save you, and you're asking that!?
Asuka!
Yeah, I'm so thankful, I'm on the verge of tears!
What's with that attitude!?
Did you even bring reinforcements with you!?
How the hell could I!?
Then, did you bring a soldier magnet with you?
Huh?
-Let's split up here! -Okay!
Isn't she the one with the magnet?
Can you try to draw them out!?
I'm here, too, you know!
What the heck...
Stop it!
They're setting traps like that?
I really shouldn't stick around here.
You gotta be kidding me!
What is this, Disneyland?
Go check that room.
What's wrong!?
Dummy, you scared of your own reflection?
Yeah, all right...
Miko, hurry up and answer!
Maybe it's your imagination.
Seriously, what's with Asuka!?
This is Asuka. Come in, Miko.
Miko, what the hell are you doing!? Hurry up and answer!
Come in! Over.
The heck do you want!? Over.
What's the matter with you!? Over.
I'm in a jam here, too, you know.
Some chick barged in and was startled by her own reflection.
Imagine living with that fear.
Shut up, and listen to me!
There's a ceiling over my head.
Well, duh, of course! Over.
It's a suspended ceiling!
I'm this close to getting squashed!
Yeah, right.
You really think those traps are still a thing? Over.
I swear it's the truth! Over.
Then, why not just leave the room? Over.
The door won't open from the inside!
You gotta open it from the outside! Over.
-You find her? -No.
-Look in the back, too. -Don't get excited.
I can't move from here.
-Over. -You gotta hurry!
I don't have much time! Over.
Isn't there a switch somewhere? Can't you kill the power? Over.
That's it!
Don't raise your voice outta nowhere!
You're gonna make me choke on this chocolate. Over.
Is there a power outlet around? Over.
Yeah, I see one. Over.
You have to connect a metal and short it out! Over.
I have nothing to shortcircuit this thing. Over.
There has to be something! Go search for something! Over.
There's really nothing. Over.
The chocolate! You're eating it, right?
Over.
You want me to stick the chocolate into the outlet?
Over.
Use the small piece of silver paper, and stick it in the outlet! Over.
Silver paper?
Still not ready!?
You're gonna regret it
if you leave your soul mate to die!
Are you still not done? Hurry up!
Hurry, hurry!
Asuka! Asuka!
She was a nice girl...
I'm alive... Over.
Don't confuse me like that! Over.
-Let me open it for you. -Thank you.
No freaking way!
Looks like you had a blast.
Oh, screw you.
Let's go.
That one's yours!
Why did you bring their lunch with you!?
It's not their lunch!
This is the only thing I look forward to about this job.
-Hold it! -Yes, ma'am?
While I'm out to fetch Queen Hibari,
there's a golden statue guarding the door.
Keep a very close eye on it.
Yes, ma'am!
We can't just walk out there with this.
I know.
I bet they've covered the entire back area too.
After having come all this way...
Three minutes? More like 30!
Queen Hibari will be here any minute!
I want everyone to sweep the mansion from top to bottom!
Yes, ma'am!
-Search! -Yes, ma'am.
We'll search the front.
-Hold it! -Yes, ma'am?
What the hell do we do now!?
We'll just run if we gotta.
At ease!
We did it! Hey, Asuka...
Selling this could bring us a fortune!
Pure gold, eh? I wonder how many gold coins this amounts to.
-Let's do it, okay? -I like the sound of that.
Let's go tease Harumi a bit.
What kinda strategist is she supposed to be?
What does she mean that nothing's impossible?
"The impossible is possible, isn't it?"
-Harumi... -We didn't see you there.
Nothing is impossible for strategist Harumi!
-It's been oddly rowdy, hasn't it? -Yes, ma'am.
It's quite a long story.
However, I feel you'll understand once you see what we've acquired.
I look forward to it.
Feast your eyes.
I see.
ASUKA GROUP
It transformed!
It's good to have you back.
Now we can get tomorrow's festival back on track.
So what, our safety didn't matter to you at all?
That's 'cause I knew a few blows wouldn't slow you guys down.
My brain has triumphed over Zenchura!
I don't know who really triumphed here,
but the person with the last laugh wins.
WHOEVER HAS THE LAST LAUGH WINS
Huh? What does that mean?
Good question.
I didn't quite get it myself.
What a sickening smile.
