Hai!

I sensed you on a secret frequency

and was captivated by your radiance

And seeing you with my million-bit vision

The circuits of my heart

Ah, they're going wild!

The forces of love move me as they will

So I've embraced the mystery

If it's for the sake of the one you love

Why, there's nothing you couldn't do!

Oh, the heartful, heartful mechanic

the slightest movements of a pure heart

The heartful, heartful mechanic

makes true your dream-colored heartbeats

Step Jun, Step Jun, Step Jun!

Your hot desire! Come on, come on, input!

The Mighty Kichinosuke!

Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!

Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!

Wow, it's really late.

Currently Napping

I really slept in!

That ain't the case at all, haha!

Kichinosuke, you're thinkin' about this way too hard.

You really are! It's much too silly.

What's going on? It's pretty boisterous out here.

- I was being followed by a pervert! - So scary!

What?!

Oh, you know how it is.

We sent Kichinosuke out on a delivery earlier.

And then on the way home...

Thank you, call again!

Well, that's weird.

Help me!!!

- Kichinosuke!!! - What's goin' on?

There's some crazy pervert out there!

Some pervert went after Jun?!

Heck no!!! Jun's off having a nap!

The one the pervert was after was me!

Huh, so that's all.

There are some pretty weird perverts out there!

I mean, going after Kichinosuke?

Agh! Annoyed.

Poor big brudder.

But that's not all!

There's still more to the story.

Really? More?

Wasn't long after that we got a phone call.

A phone call...?

Yes, yes!

You're speakin' to the proud owner, may I ask who's calling?

Someone from the police.

You own a robot shaped like a kettle, correct?

Well yeah, his name's Kichinosuke...

The word is that Kichinosuke was followed home by a pervert.

A passer-by filed a report with us not too long ago.

Any injuries to report?

Well uh, not really...

That's great news.

Also, just a routine question for future reference.

Would you mind letting us know how Kichinosuke is operated?

Ah! How Kichinosuke is operated, eh?

It's as simple as be!

My daughter Jun's whipped up some device called a Pipi-con --

one button push on that thing does the trick.

A "Pipi-con", you say. Understood.

Thank you so much for your time! Bye now.

Yeah, you'd have to be a real weirdo to trail Kichinosuke here,

but why the heck are the police takin' it so dang seriously?

You're not kidding! It turned into quite the affair.

Yeah, but still...

Why was this detective so interested in the Pipi-con?

What do you think you're doing?!

What's wrong with big brudder?

Hey!

Agh! Cut it out already!

I'm scared, and I don't want it to happen again!

Please, you gotta find out who this pervert is!

Oh really, is that all?

Okay!

Somebody's hacking into my computer and stealing all my data!

Agh! A computer thief?

But what could they possibly be after?

Open... sesame!!!

The only way to get into my system is by entering the secret password --

Otherwise there's no way past the firewalls I have set up.

What's the secret password?

It's actually the name of your controller.

"Pipi-con"!

Wait!

A "Pipi-con", you say. Ah, understood!

Could this be why he asked about it?

But who would do that? And why?!

Oh! The connection closed!

For the past few days,

odd incidents have been occurring at Para-Paradise Amusement Park.

Two days ago, the Sky Flower went haywire.

Then yesterday, the Boomerang malfunctioned.

Goodness, such a disgraceful fuss.

There are no clues as to the perpetrator's motives.

The police are currently conducting a frantic investigation.

What kinda awful scumbag would pull horrible stunts like that?

What are they thinking, doing that in a place with so many children.

Oh?

I'll answer it!

Hello, Nonomiya residence!

Can I speak to Jun Nonomiya, please?

This here's the Para-Paradise Amusement Park!

Huh?

The Para-Paradise Amusement Park?

What?!

My little brothers sneaked inside without paying?

Anyway, you better just come down here now.

Huh.

Excuse me -- Ah!

Big sister dear!!!

B-Big sister... What is wrong with you three?

If Dad finds out about this, he's gonna have our hides!

And if Mom finds out, we can kiss lunch goodbye.

And if Toko finds out, she's gonna stuff us all in a dark box!

So please, you gotta help us out!

And here's the bill.

That's admission for three children -- 1,500 yen altogether.

W-Wait, you want me to pay?

Of course I do! You're their big sister, aren't you?

You three twerps get back here!

Waaaaait!

Ooh, that hurt...

Th-The heck? What were you doin' standin' there?

The bigger question is why you're in that get-up.

Why you think?

Passed myself off as a high school student so I could earn me some dough.

Wow Zero, doing a part time job? I really do have to look up to you now!

So Jun, you here for some playtime?

O-Oh, me? I'm...

I'm here to get a job, too!

Yep, sure am! I came here looking for work.

Really, huh? How 'bout that!

I'll go put in a good word for ya. Just wait there.

Ooh, to think that Zero and I would end up working at the same place!

All right, we're just about ready for the next carousel ride!

If you want to ride, now's the time!

Aw crud, I really wanna ride the carousel!

Sucks 'cause we got no money.

But I still wanna ride!!!

Hey, you three.

If you want to ride that badly, take these.

Huh? Really?!

Yep.

Don't hold back, now.

So, Jun Nonomiya.

Your age?

H-Huh? My age?

- Ah, it's 16! - 16.

I wonder where on earth those three ran off to?

- Nonomiya, one question. - Yes?

Are you actually a high school student?

Well, how rude!

It doesn't matter what I look like, I'm a high schooler through-and-through!

Hey, boss!

This is all we got left for uniforms.

Well, that works out then.

Nonomiya, I'll be expecting you to work hard!

Okay!

Help me!!!

Stop this crazy thing!

Heeeelp!!!

Yet another incident has occurred at the Para-Paradise Amusement Park.

However, thanks to decisive action by a young employee, disaster was averted.

Afterwards, the perpetrator contacted management.

"You get what I'm capable of, punks?!"

"I've got way more hurt in store for you pieces of trash!!!"

And so the phone call went.

Fear has now been carved into the hearts of all those concerned.

So because of this development,

I'll ask you keep your eyes peeled for suspicious people or devices,

and please don't hesitate to reach out if something feels off.

Understood?

Haha, looks like I'm a minute late! So sorry.

Incorrect! You were exactly one minute and thirty five seconds late.

Wait, Yoko?

B-But why are you here?

Oh, just getting necessary life experience.

A part-time job like this is just what I needed.

Yes! Especially valuable for you young folk with too much time on your hands.

Wow, great job overselling it.

Let me guess, you got jealous I'd be spending extra time with Zero?

With all that said, I'll be expecting you to be at your best again today!

Okay!!!

Ah, excuse me, Mizuno.

I'll get you to team up with Kanou here at the concession stand.

- Got it? - Yes, sir!

Excuse me, sir? Shall I join them?

No, I have something else in mind for you.

Something else...?

Sure, just stick Yoko and Zero together. Why did I draw the short straw?

Gobble, gobble! Gobble.

Kichinosuke! Just what are you doing here?

Lots of crazy stuff happening these days!

Your parents asked me to come keep an eye on you.

Leave it to those two to go overboard.

So for now I'm gonna help!

Gobble.

Ah, gobble, gobble...

Gobble! Gobble! And gobble some more.

Completely unacceptable!

Dragging some ridiculous robot onto park grounds.

Yeah, for real.

Get it out of here at once!

Kichinosuke! Let's go!

The second you show up, things always go haywire.

I've had enough, so just go home already!

I can't!

I wanna help you out more! Please, Jun.

If you don't start listening, I'm powering you down!

Geh!!!

For pete's sake...

Ow, dammit!

Huh?

Kichinosuke!!!

Figured you'd pretend to leave and then hide out, huh?

What the hell, jerk? Dumb bastard!

Piss off and die!

Wh-What did you just say?!

If you're going to use language like that, then I've had it with you!

Stupid jerk!

You dumb bastard!

Oh? He's not powering down!

Jerk-ass hunk of crap!

Kichinosuke! Am I not getting through to you?

Piss off and die!

You first!!!

Ah! Kichinosuke, are you all right?

Not good.

What are the odds it'd come across Kichinosuke's inventor?

RMC No. 2.

RMC No. 2!

Change your location at once!

Kichinosuke? Ah!

What on earth was that all about?

This is all because you got an amusement park job as a middle school student!

Yep! And that ain't all.

What'd you expect, chasin' away your bodyguard?

What do you mean, "chase away"? Kichinosuke pretended to leave and then hid.

That's why I was expecting him to come to the rescue when those bees attacked.

But you're wrong, I left the park right away!

I mean, you were gonna cut my power.

You stupid liar! Ah, ooh, owie...

I'll have you know I hate lies!

Me too!

This really is odd.

I mean, even disregarding the foul language and the lying,

I don't ever recall installing circuits in you that would allow that.

Oh? Coming!

We're with the police.

What?!

The police...?

So, about this robot you got under your roof.

What's up?

Yep, that's the robot in the picture.

Hey, I'm not just some robot!

Oh? You zip those lips!

You're under arrest as an accomplice for the amusement park incidents!

- What?! - A-A-Arrest?!

We've got proof, of course.

This was captured on the park's security cameras!

B-But wait... that's!

But this isn't Kichinosuke.

Look, the arm sockets are the completely wrong color!

Kichinosuke's are red, but this robot's are green!

Got the color mixed-up, huh. Guess that means only one thing...

What we're actually dealing with is a knock-off of this robot here.

Yeah, well you better apologize!

Apologize right now!

- So sorry! - Thanks.

So right after today's incident, we received this phone call,

and it appears to be from the culprit.

These "accidents" keep piling up and your happy little amusement park is finished.

If you want all of this to end,

at noon sharp tomorrow,

leave a bag with 100,000,000 yen on the bench in front of the fountain.

It's him!

That's the detective who phoned here before.

What?

'Course, I'm gonna guess he was actually a fake.

Now I get it!

He just pretended to be a detective,

all to get his hands on the password to my computer!

Now he's built himself a fake Kichinosuke with the stolen data,

just to help him carry out these incidents!

I won't ever forgive a scumbag like him!

One more minute.

At least accordin' to that lil gal's predictions.

Got it? Don't take your eyes off that bag.

Got it.

Got it.

Here he comes.

She was right...

All right men, just as we planned!

Kichinosuke! Go go!

Okay!

- Hop on, Jun. - Okay!

Know where we're headed?

Locked on!

- Southwest from here! - You got it.

Get back here!

Well done, RMC No. 2.

Today I'm a very rich man.

Could even buy a fancy place like this!

Chaaaarge!

No forgiveness for criminals like you!

Grrr, you stupid kettle-shaped robot!

- Give that back! - Heck no!

Time to give it a rest!

Huh? I-It's you two!

Nice little plot you had going!

Too bad we figured it all out yesterday!

Cops'll be here any second.

Shut it!

None of you have any idea of what I've been through!

Got a sad story, eh?

This lot with the fancy model home on it...

This is where my house used to be.

It was a long time ago.

The only people who lived here had no money, hope, or dreams to speak of.

Of course, our house was much the same.

Old man ran out on us.

Mom stuck home sick in bed.

And then everyday, just to spit in our faces,

all we heard were laughing voices from the amusement park up on the hill!

My rage grew and grew.

And my hatred for the amusement park burned bright.

I vowed that one day I'd rub their noses in it, every single one of them!

You think any of you can understand how I feel?

You can say that again, you big baby!

Making up these dumbass excuses...

What a damned spoiled brat!

Oh, you think I'm a brat?

Damn it...

RMC No. 2! Waste these fools!

Jerkasses!

Get back here, bastards!

I'm gonna tear you apart!

I'm coming!

You like that?

Think you're hot stuff, punkass?

Heck yeah I'm hot stuff, jerk!

RMC, you useless hunk of scrap!

We got 'im now!

- You're under -- - Ah, he made a break for it!

You aren't catching me!

Stop! Stop stop stop! Pretty please?

Stop runnin' already!

The perpetrator's escaped into the amusement park!

Damn it...!

C'mon, get down here!

It's dangerous up there! Climb down!

Crap!

Got you...

Come along quietly!

"Jerkass! Bastards! Piss off and die!"

Look, the little fella had himself a potty mouth,

but it's kinda sad the little jerk ended up like this.

It really is.

He burned through his last ounce of strength in order to save his master.

It wasn't like he wanted to be an evil robot.

Robots are humanity's most wonderful friends!

-- wonderful friends!

Fine, I got it! Knock it off!

Robots are humanity's most wonderful friends!

Robots are humanity's most wonderful friends!

We're at the amusement park

On a date, eating ice cream

My crocodile tears are shining

in the illumination of the shuttle loop

But because of his warm kindness

I flash my practiced smile

But it's all a dream, isn't it?
