You're right!
It's swelling up!
FROM THE NEW WORLD
UTW presents
No way...
This can't be!
Is this part of the blowdog?
I'm pretty sure it's a bone.
You're kidding me...
What are you doing?
It kinda smells like fireworks.
I see. That explains it.
So some creatures really evolve just to kill?
They do whatever it takes for their species to survive.
Saki...
Anyway, let's get out of here.
We're sitting ducks here.
Hey...
What now?
We're helpless without our Canti!
Shh. They don't know that yet.
If we start running away now,
they'll get confident and start chasing us.
But they'll attack us anyway if we just stand here!
Yeah! Let's run!
I'm pretty sure they don't want to fight.
They just want to drive us away.
They should walk away, then.
Their nest must be on the far side.
A Sweltering Night on the Run
We're screwed if they think we're afraid, so...
Slowly! Do it slowly!
They don't seem to want to fight over there.
I guess that's where their nest is.
I think so too.
But what if we get far enough from their nest?
Run!
Don't stick together! Split up!
No...
I don't wanna die...
Saki, are you okay?
Satoru?
Are you okay?
I can't get up...
Can you run?
Is that Mount Tsukuba?
Yeah.
Come on, let's walk.
No, it's too late now.
Don't say that.
The others got away, right?
I'm sure they did.
So we're not allowed to talk?
Satoru!
It's okay.
If they wanted to kill us, they would've long ago.
Today was the first time they saw Cantus in action.
They wouldn't simply—
Satoru!
See? He didn't kill me.
We're in a real bind.
How's your wound, Satoru?
It's nothing, I'm telling you.
The blood's dried already.
You're bleeding here.
Huh? Where?
Over here.
Satoru...
When stress and anxiety between individuals rise,
they vent it through intimate sexual behavior.
This also applies to immature individuals or individuals of the same sex...
Saki?
No, it's nothing.
Let me do it.
Don't move.
They considered it their immediate duty to create a society of love similar to that of bonobos.
No.
...a powerful attack inhibition was necessary.
We aren't monkeys.
What's wrong?
Nothing, it's just... Look...
Don't they know what privacy is?
Even without our Canti, we still have brains.
Satoru?
Hey, you.
Oh, calm down.
You must be hungry from your long watch.
Is that...
Yep, it's the fake egg of a haythatcher.
Oh please, are you stupid?
Not even queerats would eat that.
Aren't they a foreign species?
Maybe they have no experience with haythatchers.
See?
No, I don't.
It'll just be covered in poop and get really mad.
They're coming!
They're coming! They're coming!
I know! Just shut up!
Hurry!
I'm trying!
We've got no choice.
This way.
Hurry!
Please, follow me quickly!
This way!
Isn't this a queerat nest?
Are you hurt,
gods?
Gods?
Please excuse my rudeness.
I am a messenger for the Robber Fly colony.
Squealer is my name.
Fly 604
The Robber Fly colony...
What honor it is that you should grace our colony with your presence.
Today is truly an auspicious day.
And we have two young and beautiful gods as well...
Do you hear something?
What could it be?
The queen is eagerly awaiting your arrival.
Gods, you honor us
with your presence.
The honor is ours.
We are delighted to be in your presence.
The queen welcomes you and shall provide hospitality as befits visitors.
R-Right.
Thank you.
Stop! Don't kill him!
Forgive Squealer!
I thank you for your intervention.
You have saved my life.
Did she really mean to kill you?
We have a favor to ask of you.
The Feral Spider colony?
They are the foreign species that attacked you earlier.
Several days ago, they declared war on us, who have been native in these parts since time untold.
I see.
Are you winning?
No.
Yesterday we sent special envoys to three neighboring colonies to plead for reinforcements,
but it will take some time until they arrive.
So, you can't afford to be attacked right now?
That's right.
What if we hadn't come by?
I am sure it is the will of the heavens that two young gods have come to save us from destruction.
Excuse my rudeness and hear my plea.
Bring down the iron hammer of vengeance on the Feral Spiders who fear not even the gods.
I implore you.
We're really sorry, but we can't do that.
We require permission to punish queerats.
I am fully aware of that.
However, if no action is taken, we will inevitably meet our end here.
I beg you.
If you would strike only a modest blow at their ranks...
If you lose this war, what would happen to you?
The queen would be executed,
and we would work as slaves until we die.
We would be treated like scum while we live,
and our corpses would be left in the hills to fertilize the earth.
For that reason we have to keep children from meeting the queerats.
Satoru! Satoru!
What is it—
Shh.
Listen.
Could that be the Feral Spiders?
Do you remember which way we came?
This is it, I think.
An exit!
Don't breathe it!
Run!
This way!
Satoru, look!
It's the sky.
We can get out from there.
Yeah.
Satoru, hurry!
What's wrong, Satoru?
That's...
No way...
Satoru!
Saki!

Nakisou na aoringo kakaeteru mune no oku
泣きそうな 青リンゴ 抱えてる 胸の奥
In my chest, I carry a green apple that wets my eyes
Korogatte tsuyogatte
転がって 強がって
I fall over yet pretend to be strong
Kyuukutsu na sora niramu
窮屈な空睨む
I glower at the sky and it seems to suffocate me
Unmei ni juujun ni
運命に 従順に
Do I look like I'd wait quietly
Jukusu no wo matsu mon ka
熟すのを 待つもんか
For destiny to ripen it?
Sen no kaze

I struggle and scream

I make a rainbow when I burst
Asahina Satoru. Asahina Satoru.
You have violated the rules and gone where you were not supposed to.
Furthermore, you have allowed your mind to be poisoned by a demon.
The real problem, however, weighs far heavier.
