Yes. Leave it to me.

Slam Tank Part II

I've succeeded in hacking into the Desanian satellite!

Police Town Underground

Control Room 12

Rio and Henry are in Desania, as we expected!

Are they okay?

Yes, they are. The Desanian Army tried to capture them,

but failed because of Henry's counterattack.

They failed?

Right after the Desanian tank unit fired warning shots,

they seem to have been completely destroyed by Henry's counterattack.

But I thought Henry couldn't move.

That's true.

Lilica, display the present location of Rio and Henry!

I'm working on that now.

They are very close to the border!

This computer is so fast!

The center of the world's

disputes, Desania...

Only Maki could arrange to use this high capacity control room!

If they capture Henry, there is no doubt

that their military government will misuse it.

We even can't compare this with the room we always use.

And Rio will definitely be...

Get Maya and Yuji at the UN Border Control Forces base!

Roger!

Saragia Republic: The UN

Force for Border Control

You know that UN Forces can't take military action

without being attacked, don't you?

Is that so? While you take it easy and do nothing,

they'll capture the tank, cross the border, and boom!

It can destroy this base easily.

But...

We'll go in our own fighter,

if you just give us permission.

I can't do that.

She couldn't shoot as much as she wanted yesterday,

so she's got a lot of pent-up stress!

Thank you for your cooperation!

Never come back here again!

Desania Military Headquarters

What? We can't track the location of the tank anymore?

No, Sir.

An unidentified satellite has attacked and destroyed

our surveillance satellite, and...

That's enough!

Damn! What is the hell going on?

General...

What is it, Ms. Ruby?

I want you to send three combat helicopters to the oasis

closest to the last known location of the tank.

There! That feels good!

But why?

Because machines don't need water, but the girl does.

Am I right?

Yes, you are!

The distance to the target is five hundred!

We are ready to fire!

Hey, are only three really enough?

Don't worry.

Switch targets! Fire warning shots at the woman!

Roger!

They were completely destroyed!

Now we'll lose the tank's location again.

It's okay. Her behavior pattern is so simple.

Have your men search for them

along the shortest line between the oasis and the border, will you?

I shouldn't be relaxing and bathing like this.

Besides that...

Why didn't you counterattack the helicopters right away?

Hey, are you listening to me?!

I was hurt like this because you didn't react soon enough!

Why don't you say something, stupid?

Well, I understand that you can't talk because you're a machine.

Can you at least react by moving your cannon or something?

With the tracer broken, I can't figure out the directions!

I'm quite at a loss now.

After all, you should rely on your intuition!

As if that would work.

Hold on!

Where are you going?

What? What is it?

What are you trying to say?

Are you possibly trying to show me the direction to the border?

What?

Hey! Stop!

Boys can't just walk away from girls! We hate that.

And I hate walking behind boys!

Also, don't you feel guilty letting a girl carry this heavy stuff?

Good! You look very good with that!

Let's go, then! Follow me!

It's so hot!

It was very stupid of me to take this miserable mission

for only one million five hundred thousand yen!

If I fail to collect the award, I'm going to blame you!

Plus...

What was it? All Terrain something...

Whatever your name is, it sounds cool,

but you can't do anything.

I'm really starving!

I want to eat Matsumotoya's Special Assorted Lunchbox!

Can you go to Matsumotoya to get one for me?

Don't forget Bodiva's chocolates for dessert too.

Needless to say, get Dokilello's Oolong tea too!

It's about noon now, isn't it?

I forgot to set the timer on the video.

I'm going to miss another show of "Three-legged Race of Love".

After missing two shows in a row, I won't be able to follow the story!

Can't you record and replay TV shows or something, Henry?

Oh, well. I bet Kasumi's just going to find another guy,

and have this problem and that...

But I still watch anyway.

I've been sighing for the last few hours, haven't I?

It's not like this is unusual,

but I'm sure I will age faster than average because of that.

But I don't want to age faster than Maya, at least!

Then again, I don't want to be a "never-grown-up girl" like Nanvel.

Oh, man! I haven't put on any sunscreen!

I'm going to have a lot of freckles on my face.

I have to apply a cucumber pack!

It's going to be a hassle.

I get stiff shoulders

if I do things that I'm not accustomed to.

I also have to drink a lot of water to avoid dry skin!

But not this much water!

Hey! Quit watching and help me!

Do it quick! Don't run so slowly!

There's a waterfall!

What took so long?

Well, you helped me after all...

By the way, I did say that I wanted a lot of water,

but this is too harsh for a girl! Don't you think so?

Oh, well...

Not only are you hard, but your shape isn't comfortable for riding!

Henry, you might be more of a gentleman than I thought.

Too bad you can't supply me with money!

Let's go, Henry!

I'm always just in awe of my friends

They're so cool

In my heart, I'm just about to burst with envy

You can copycat people, but that won't change who you are

Only you have what's important right now

And it's all special

No matter how small you are

Be brave

Shine your power

Believin' on dream, open your world

Overcome the endless future

Song for you

That's right

There's no time like now

I sing to you, for being able to take that first step

Hello?

Hello?

Is anyone home?

Wow! It's food!

Lucky! I haven't eaten for two days!

What is Henry doing?

Did he go nuts? Why is he shooting like that?

Do you really think it's okay?

Are you sure that it won't fire at us suddenly, Miss Ruby?

Don't worry. That won't happen.

Miss Ruby!

Long time no see, girl.

You're the woman who attacked Anna.

I am. Do you remember me?

Well, hello, hello.

What are you going to do with me now?

Don't you have to kill me right away?

Don't be in such a hurry.

You're an important hostage.

I'll kill you after you complete your role.

Hostage?

Why don't you move, stupid tank?!

Get moving and attack them!

Quit daydreaming! Move!

I said move!

It's no use. It won't attack us.

What? What do you mean?

Don't you understand?

The tank was programmed to protect you.

What are you talking about?

I guess you didn't know that.

You're a hostage against the tank.

A hostage.

The analysis of the tank's interface is complete.

Cut off the first connection to the system.

The second, third, and starting systems have been disconnected!

This doesn't look very good.

Henry will be completely theirs soon.

What if the destructive power he showed in yesterday's fight

falls into the Desanians' hands?

The UN, no, world peace will be...

If you push both of those buttons at the same time

within twenty meters of Henry, he will self-destruct.

There's only one guard. First...

I need my battle suit.

Hey, handsome guy, don't you want to play

with a young and beautiful girl?

When someone is talking to you, you're supposed to listen!

What do you mean?

I'm not sure.

This tank doesn't have any brain-like parts.

Not only does it have no strategic programs,

but it also doesn't have any on-board computers.

Ridiculous!

Then how did it move?

We haven't figured that out yet.

There is one thing we found which might give us some kind of answer.

What is it?

A memory chip filled with combat information.

If we analyze it thoroughly,

we might be able to learn something to solve the mystery.

Analyze it as soon as possible!

Yes, Ma'am.

An AI Strategic Tank without a brain...

What does it mean?

There, there!

That's...

Yes. Take that off.

Do it gently!

But...

You have to treat girls very gently.

Take that off carefully, because it's very important.

That is...

Look, it's the Tokyo Tower!

Hey, thanks!

If they reach Henry, use this.

This is the last resort.

Don't you understand?

The tank was programmed to protect you.

This is the end of the game.

Stop being silly!

How long are you going to stay like this without doing anything?

Henry will self-destruct...

Stop being silly!

How long are you going to stay like this without doing anything?

Henry will self-destruct...

I won't die in vain in such a barren place!

Henry will...

I won't....

Self-destruct...

Die in vain...

Self-destruct...

Die in vain...

Self-destruct...

Die in vain...

Henry will self-destruct...

If you want to die in vain...

If you want to die in vain,

do it by yourself!

Self-destruct! Self-destruct! Self-destruct! Self-destruct!

I can't...

I can't push the buttons.

I know it's just a machine, but...

A machine...

Why can't I push the buttons?!

You were a good hostage, but now you're useless!

You gave us a lot of trouble!

It's time to finish it.

Give up, young lady!

What happened?

The tank is moving, even with no starting system!

Tank unit, ready to fire! Stop the bastard!

Prepare to attack! Set the target!

Destroy it if you have to! Stop it!

This is...

I... I...

If you want to die in vain...

said...

do it by yourself!

such a cruel thing...

Rio!

Let's roll!

Damn it! Our operation has failed!

Hey, Miss Ruby!

I'll take the combat memory chip, thank you very much!

What?

You completed your role. Good job, General!

Hold on, Rio!

The border's just over that dune!

We're going to meet you on the border! Don't give up!

Thanks...

You...

You took this much damage to protect me.

Thank you, Henry. Let's...

Let's cross the border together!

We're almost there, don't give up!

Special Reward 1,500,000 yen!

I did it!

Rio scored one million five hundred thousand yen!

V! V! V!

Let's get that Herbes suit, hat, and scarf!

It's so like Rio!

She used up all of her reward money at once!

I see! She knew that she could buy a new one.

That's why she gave her scarf to the tank.

I still wonder why the tank protected Rio?

Well, apparently Rio was playing with it

and turned on the VIP Guard Switch by chance in the transport plane.

But why did it start up his systems again by himself to protect Rio,

even though they had shut out his system?

Because his brain is in space.

Space?

That's right. His brain was in space in a satellite.

They launched it from the UN's Space Base for an experiment

right before our transport plane took off.

That means Rio was protected both on the ground and in space!

What a lucky girl!

Yuji's Additional Theater II

Ta-da! Yuji's Additional Theater Il!

She took all of the reward by

herself! Hateful Rio Kinezono.

I'll report her real life!

Today's report is...

Today's report is at Rio Kinezono's apartment.

She recently monopolized the reward money

without sharing it with her coworkers.

And that was a shameful action as a human being!

That's why!

We'll try to peep on her private life as

"Spiteful girl! You got so much money, Rio Kinezono!

You should treat us sometimes!"

What kind of gorgeous life does she lead?

We are coming in from this entrance.

What a coincidence! There's a rope ladder here.

We can use this to climb up to the third floor

and sneak onto her veranda.

What does her private life look like?

I can't suppress my rapid heartbeat!

She took all of the reward by

herself! Hateful Rio Kinezono.

I'll report her real life!

She's sleeping right now!

I feel so lucky that I can show Rio like this to you, audience!

Oh, this is...

My Rio...

in her bed!

It's exciting!

She grasped my heart!

She took all of the reward by

herself! Hateful Rio Kinezono.

I'll report her real life!

I can't believe this!

It seems that young women don't have any shame these days.

I can't believe my eyes!

This is...

My Rio...

In her bed!

Oh, my god!

Is there anyone who could

hate something as beautiful as

this?

She took all of the reward by

herself! Hateful Rio Kinezono.

I'll report her real life!

The window is not locked!

Yes, this is the third floor,

but isn't it still dangerous to leave it unlocked?

She took all of the reward by

herself! Hateful Rio Kinezono.

I'll report her real life!

Doesn't she worry about someone sneaking into her room

and doing unspeakable things, like this or that?!

I'm just a reporter, but I can't help worrying about her.

She took all of the reward by

herself! Hateful Rio Kinezono.

I'll report her real life!

In fact, I worry about her so much

that I won't be able to sleep at night!

She took all of the reward by

herself! Hateful Rio Kinezono.

I'll report her real life!

You learned that you have to pay the price if you do something bad!

End

Ouch!

Come to me, if you have any

complaints! -Yuji

I'm so busy!

There are so many tedious things to do everyday!

Making tea, making photocopies, writing apologies...

I can't take it any more! Give me a cup of tea, Yuji!

Yes, coming right up!

I'm busy taking care of Rio everyday!

Making tea for Rio, making photocopies for Rio,

fetching snacks for Rio, rubbing Rio's shoulders....

I can't take this any more! Someone help me!

Oh, there is a cup here?

A cup? A cop? Mecha Cop!

We need a Mecha Cop!

Next episode: "Watch Out for The Mecha Cop!"

If you don't watch it, I'll take off my clothes!

Watch out for The Mecha Cop!

Burn Up Excess is running out of ideas for previews!
