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!
SILVER GHOST LEADER YASU
Everyone, place your bets!
My bet's on the black one!
-Another for black. -All righty.
Keep 'em coming. Is that all?
No more, huh? Guess that settles it.
Man, your acting skills are just awful.
Bro! Wait up, Bro!
Who was that girl!?
That little kid saw right through me!
She's just fickle.
No, I don't think so.
Not this again, bro.
I know you like to pick up girls, but she's just a kid!
We're going after her, and that's that!
She'll get what's rightfully hers.
Stay back!
Stay away! Stay the hell away!
-It's just a dog. -Shut it!
FIRST KISS!!
ZENCHURA
Queen Hibari.
Soon, Asuka Kuraku will be within our grasp.
Can I help you ladies?
Bad news, bro. They're the notorious Demon Ladies causing trouble.
Kid's got more punch than I anticipated.
Well, that's an interesting greeting.
Silver Ghost's Yasu!
Why did you jump such a cute girl?
For the bounty...
Bounty?
Radical, man!

DEMON LADIES LEADER HIROKO WANIGUCHI
KNOWN FOR BEING INCREDIBILITY BRUTAL
Zenchura has bought all your good skills.
Whoever defeats Asuka Kuraku...
will be rewarded handsomely.
Hey, Asuka.
We haven't seen any Zenchura guys lately.
Perhaps they gave up on Nishisan-ku.
-Yeah, you wish. -I really think so!
At last, peace has returned.
It's so wild to talk about peace...
so shamelessly like that.
And what's wrong with peace?
Forget about peace, and have a bite of this.
Everything's food to you, Miko.
-Drop by your school sometime. -Where did that come from!?
-You really should go. -Quiet!
You see something, Asuka?
Look, over there, too.
Are they Zenchura?
That's a woman's world there.
They say a man will always follow a cat.
I'll split from you guys here.
Asuka!
I've become quite popular lately,
and I think those guys over there might fancy me too.
Hey, hold on!
Let her go. Take a nibble and calm down.
Just come on out already.
Dumbass!
You guys can't even bother with introductions?
I see you've got guts, as they say.
Well, I'll be damned. All the elders are here.
Gouda!
Asuka Kuraku's head
belongs to Waniguchi of the Demon Ladies!
It's the Demon Tribe who will take Asuka's head!
The hell's going on?
-Get in! -You...!
-Just get in! -Hurry!
What are you doing, stupid!?
Here's your share.
Despite my looks, I'm all about keeping things in check.
And you are?
I'm Yasuhiro. I'm a big deal in Yokohama.
-Never heard of you. -You don't know the Silver Ghost!?
Such a terrible name.
The Demon Ladies and Demon Tribe are famous bounty hunters.
Looks like there's a bounty on your head.
Bounty hunters?
How about we work together?
Stop the car!
I appreciate your help today,
but don't be poking your nose into a kid's world!
That was a legendary rejection, bro.
We're just getting started.
I've missed this thrilling feeling.
Yep, this is love!
Oh, dear. I sense a headache coming...
Hold it!
Stop right there!
They just never give up, do they?
Asuka Kuraku!
Your head is mine!
Phew, that was close.
I thought you were a ghost, but it's just an ogre.
You gotta be kidding me! Are you really human?
Please hold!
Asuka! Asuka!
It's terrible!
I've never had to do this since you were born!
I'm at a total loss!
I'm sure you can figure it out on your own.
I'm too tired for this.
-Now just a minute! -What the...
Listen, there's a boy on the phone for you!
What?
I see you've got a boyfriend now!
I'm delighted.
Seriously? I just told you I was tired.
Yeah, hello?
No, I mustn't eavesdrop!
What the hell is it!?
The Demon Tribe and Demon Ladies
have teamed up to take you down.
What do you say?
How about we take them on together?
Persistent bastard!
Dork.
Oh, Asuka...
This kid took me by surprise.
Bro! They're starting to move!
I'm certain one day, I'll...
If you keep getting involved with that busybody Asuka, you'll...
Hiroshi, the thing about helping a busybody is that
it may be hazardous for us, and a nuisance to them,
but if you decide to play a role, you stick with it to the end.
You still have much to learn.
Outta sight!
Asuka.
Miko wouldn't go to her school by herself, would she?
How would I know? Ask her.
Fair point. Hey, Miko.
I can go to any zoo I want, can't I?
-It's not about that. -The hell's your problem?
Yo.
-Hey... -What are you doing!?
Why're you acting like she hit you?
Get off me!
-C'mere! -Let go!
The hell?
Those two are in love.
Say what!?
As the saying goes, love and hate are two facets of the same coin.
Asuka's in love!?
Maybe you should go to the hospital.
Asuka is a beautiful woman,
but just lacks awareness of her attractiveness.
I feel stupider the more I talk to you!
Let go of me already! I ain't gonna run away!
You had something on your mind?
Just get it said.
Zenchura's not just playing war with the kiddos.
Win or lose, you'll cease to be a kid by the time it's all over.
Those who taint their hands with blood
find themselves in the deepest abyss.
It's settled.
I won't say anything bad.
Lemme take care of these bounty hunters.
Forget it!
What did you say!?
I'm set on bringing down Zenchura, no matter what!
This is too big a load for a kid. Don't cut your life short.
Maybe elders like you should drop dead already.
I can't wait for you to grow up.
You'll have to wait a decade for that.
I know a better way to take those guys down.
-Screw it, then. -Is that a right?
Not that it matters to you, Lone Ranger.
It's not good for you to hold back what's on your mind.
Well, look who's interested now.
Well, I am a kid.
My interests change like the wind.
Have you seen Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo?
Nope.
In essence, is about having the mad dogs fight it out.
How?
We'll use this.
This is a wiretap.
I bought it with your share.
-Hey, count me in, too! -Miko!
You just never get bored when you're with Asuka.
-So I hear. -I'm not some toy!
How about you try acting cuter, then?
In what way am I not cute?
I've fallen for a clueless girl.
Shut it, you fiend!
DEVIL TRIBE'S HIDEOUT
You're saying Waniguchi betrayed us?
-You're not messing with us, are you? -It's the truth!
I'm here because she betrayed us,
the Demon Ladies, over Asuka Kuraku.
You got some proof?
Yeah, right here.
Listen.
Asuka, if you choose to join Zenchura,
the prize money is yours without a battle.
But we need proof...
DEMON LADIES' HIDEOUT
Here's your proof.
Why did you come to us instead of the Demon Tribe?
I'd prefer avoiding that vulgar guy's spot.
Got that right, that jerk sure is vulgar.
Let's move!
Time to go in big against the Demon Ladies!
Just as planned.
I'll infiltrate the place and save Asuka.
As soon as you hear from me, ram the car.
Okay!
I really miss this stuff, bro!
This is so exciting!
H-How the hell did a dog get in here!?
Bro, the Demon Tribe is almost there!
-Please respond. -Get away!
Who was that!?
Stop!
They're here, bro!
The Demon Tribe's here!
Asuka! You tricked us from the start!
That's right.
This only happened 'cause you all behaved like fools.
Why you little...!
Asuka!
Come back here, Asuka!
Bro! Bro!
Bro.
-Hey, you! -Shh!
-Don't "shh" me! -The Demon Tribe's here.
Miko! We've been made! Run!
-You bastards! -Hold it!
It was all a ruse.
Seems that way.
I'll draw them away while you run.
Don't get fancy, old man.
Old man? You've got a smart mouth, kid.
This is how you think, gramps.
Let's shake on it.
This was destined to happen eventually.
Now!
They're here!
You bastard, you ain't getting away!
Bro...
-Who the hell are you!? -Sorry, I give up...
Asuka!
Listen to this.
Bro, I'm sorry!
Sorry, I left you hanging, bro.
Asuka!
That guy's a beast!
Tag along if you don't wanna get bored.
Bro, I'm sorry!
Forget about me, Bro. This beast...
Asuka Group, present!
Alongside her soul mate, Miko.
Great timing! After him, you're next!
Yasu! How long you gonna keep up that act?
That coin was my bet to you!
Asuka!
Is that thing supposed to be a threat?
Fool!
You've been quite the busybody.
What?
Asuka, if you keep doing this, you'll die young.
Shut it, gramps!
I don't focus on the future.
I live in the present. Bye.
Isn't she just the opposite of boring?
DON'T FOCUS ON THE FUTURE LIVE IN THE PRESENT
She's far out!
I like her.
I like her, too.
Certainly this time,
I acted on my own accord.
Nevertheless...
it was all for the sake
of defeating Asuka Kuraku!
USELESS...
I'm truly sorry.
Well, in spite of everything, thanks for the help.
I can't wait for you to grow up.
You'll have to wait a decade.
Later.
One sec.
Gimme a farewell.
I just did.
I knew it!
You're a strange bastard.
Bro, you're head over heels for her, aren't you?
You betcha!
We're made for each other!
Heck yes!
What is it?
Did you just realize it?
You imbecile!
You're gonna pay for that!
-Asuka! -Asuka!
-Die! -Knock it off, Asuka!
Jackass!
