All language subtitles for What.to.Do.with.the.Dead.Kaiju.2022.JAPANESE.BRRip.x264-VXT

Sudden Silence.

It has been more than ten days since the mysterious death of a gigantic creature called "Kaiju,"

a monster that has caused unprecedented terror to mankind.

The everyday feelings of joy, relief, and enthusiasm

were about to be encapsulated in the new normal.

And the corpse remained.

What to do with the Dead Kaiju

Wow! Awesome! It's the Second Ship!

- I've never seen it before!
- So cool!

Okay, okay, pictures...

- Take pictures! Take pictures!
- Hey, hey! Okay! Okay!

Simply a Class Reunion

I'm pretty sure that's the Second Ship.

I wonder if this will ever become valid again.

What's that?

What you ask?

My call to arms!

- What? Really?!
- Isn't that amazing?

Hey, you...

I wonder if the situation has changed if the Second Ship is in the air.

Like the kaiju came back to life?

If that were the case, an "emergency alert" would be sounded.

No way!

I didn't get a notification.

This is an emergency alert. Be on the lookout for Kaiju activity.

I didn't get it either.

This is an emergency alert. Be on the lookout for Kaiju activity.

Hey Suda, stop it!

What?! It's a prank?!

Stop fooling around, jerk!

And yet it's a fire emergency, right?

What is wrong with the Kaiju?

Ah, no. I beg your pardon.

Yes, sir.

I'll be back by 1800H.

Yes, sir.

Arata, what's wrong?

I should get going.

I see.

That's a shame.

A shame?

Yeah.

I guess I'm expecting too much of from an ex-boyfriend for something?

If Defcon 2 has been deactivated,

I'm assuming you're okay with level 3 mail and all that?

Yeah, but I don't know if I can reply.

You're not going to run away from your "mission," are you?

What do you mean?

At that time, you were...

An emergency vehicle is passing, traveling at top priority.

Please give priority to all vehicles.

An emergency vehicle is passing. Passing it by is top priority.

So I'm always left behind.

Godspeed.

The giant creature that destroyed the nation's capital and plunged mankind into a state of terror...

The "Kaiju" as it is commonly called...

Suddenly was enveloped by a powerful light energy and died.

Currently, they found out that there is no biological response...

The causal relationship between the light and the monster's death is unknown.

I suspect it's some kind of atmospheric discharge,

in terms of the strength of the light and the energy.

As we have stated repeatedly, we have not engaged in the use of nuclear weapons.

This is the satellite image that was taken at that time.

As you can see, a huge photosphere has formed above the monster.

The government has designated a 10-kilometer radius

from the location of the Kaiju's corpse as a restricted zone.

The restricted area is

thoroughly monitored and...

Hey! Stay still!

No harmful pathogens, toxic or radioactive materials

have been identified in the Kaiju carcass.

The public can rest assured that...

I'm worried.

When can we go back to our old lives?

The government continues to urge citizens

to refrain from leaving their homes unnecessarily.

Just what is this "new, new life?"

Across the country, young men and women who went to war

as part of the Kaiju Response Team are beginning to return home.

Up next, this is a video of Prime Minister Nishio Otachime's press conference.

The Kaiju is dead.

While our military casualties were minimal,

the loss of young lives in the service of our country

is one of the most grievous losses I have ever suffered as Prime Minister.

The country must still continue to be under a declared state of emergency.

Hello. This is Amane.

Yes, I've taken care of it.

After I go home, I'll be coming to the office.

Yes, I'm fine.

Regarding the future disposal of Kaiju corpse...

So you're home.

You're the one who's early.

Yeah. The pep rally turned into a class reunion.

I see.

Was Arata there?

I think he was.

You think?

Yeah, it looks like he got a call from Special Forces on the way.

What kind of job does the Special Forces have now?

I don't know.

With the Kaiju dead,

the Special Forces Unit, which specializes in exterminating Kaiju, loses its purpose

and becomes nothing more than a big piece of baggage, along with the corpse of that monster.

Why are you telling me this?

Right...

It's none of your business.

Starting today, we'll be staying at the prime minister's residence for a while.

Yes. What I can do as a wife is...

What's wrong?

I'll keep you posted.

Dammit!

Clear!

- What's wrong?
- There's no end to this.

But is swatting flies really the job of the Special Forces?

Don't say that.

But I know what the best sniper in the Special Forces would feel rusty.

Ah, the captain is calling you.

Yeah, I know.

The Special Forces.

A combat unit under the direct control of the Prime Minister, whose symbol is the Ten Grips Sword.

It is a body of scientific and combat experts,

an agency independent of the Police Defense Forces.

Secretly founded 15 years ago during the "Bhikkhuni Incident," an incident of scientific terrorism.

Now it has been revealed that it exists as a separate unit to exterminate the Kaiju.

- Prime Minister.
- Hm?

It's time.

So a river of darkness flows through Tokyo...

It's a strange sight.

I believe the rolling blackouts in the areas where the Kaiju has passed

will be lifted only after a safety declaration.

- Amane.
- Yes, Sir?

That information-gathering ability of yours

is a double-edged sword, you know.

I believe information protects us from ourselves.

Like the epidermis of that Kaiju that was not damaged by any conventional weapons.

"Deus ex machina."

Mechanical god.

Difficult to resolve situations appear and suddenly are resolved.

It's going to end the story.

Don't you see the resemblance?

"The Chosen One?"

Well, if there is such a thing.

It's puzzling, isn't it?

I can't believe that the Kaiju, which was defying the national defense forces' attack,

is dead...

We still have no idea of the light that suddenly enveloped the Kaiju?

Well, there's always the usual way of not caring.

Any biologicial signs on the Kaiju?

None, at its present condition.

- You know...
- Yes, Sir?

If you opened the door in the morning and found a dead animal, which would you find unpleasant?

Like a cat?

I mean, wouldn't it be unpleasant to have a dead monkey or camel?

Now there's something even more unpleasant that is dead.

Well, I think it's best that they're leaving it to us now.

In the end, they want to put the blame on the Special Forces, right?

In that sense, your crisis management skills remain as strong as ever.

I guess so.

Captain!

Reporting for duty.

Okay.

Looks like your vacation turned into a long lunch break.

Well, give it up.

Are there any changes in the corpse?

That's what we think...

There is a slight rise in its body temperature.

Probably due to fermentation from decomposition.

- It's completely dead.
- Yeah.

Just that...

Is there something bothering you?

I'd like to talk to you for a moment.

Understood.

- Good evening.
- Yeah, good evening.

Maybe you all should take off

those unnatural jumpers.

- But it's work clothes.
- The size is small for me, you know.

No need to go that far.

According to the report from the Special Forces,

that Kaiju is dead, huh?

It's good that it's dead.

But...

What are we going to do with it?

The corpse, huh?

Right...

Who will do the clean up?

Well, of course, that's a given. Right?

What?

Let's not do that.

What's going on with the corpse now?

It's lying on a first class river.

- If it's in a first class river, it's MLIT.
- Right.

It's in a river so you guys should be responsible for it.

- The first class is yours.
- It's yours.

- It's not second class.
- No, well...

Hey, be professional!

He's playing dumb.

No, I'm not.

As a rule, unless radioactivity is detected,

local governments dispose of these as general waste.

So you're saying a Kaiju corpse is combustible trash?

Since conventional weapons didn't work,

I thought it was a non-burnable trash.

With all due respect, sir, I thought it was raw garbage.

If that were the case, it should be MHLW!

Wait. Why don't the Ministry of Education preserve the specimens at the National Museum?

It won't fit. Right, everyone?

There goes the dragonfly!

The Minister of Education has a dragonfly face when he's troubled.

Is that a white-tailed skimmer?

It doesn't matter if it's a white-tailed skimmer of all things.

- Is it a damselfly?
- A dragonfly! Dragonfly!

There, there, the dragonfly.

Excuse me!

Stop beating around the bush everyone.

Well, Mr. Minister of Defense.

Fine, we'll do it.

You really act like that, Mr. Prime Minister. Whenever you're in trouble, you turn to me.

Well, I wonder about that.

What? Clickety-clack?

Isn't it enough?

- What's the budget for the Incineration Unit, Minister of Finance?
- No!

Shouldn't it be preserved in principle?

If we incinerate the common property of mankind,

we will bring down this administration in flames!

First of all, maybe a safety declaration.

Yes, that's it!

Let's hope it doesn't have bacteria or radiation or something.

We are currently investigating that.

I'll be going to the Z Bridge right away.

Minister, a word please.

Minister, what caused the death of the Kaiju?

Have you found out what that light is?

Are you going to let the Special Forces do the rest?

As long as it's dead, there's no place for the Defense Force.

I know.

Garbage disposal, huh?

A fitting last job for the Special Forces.

Why do you hate the Special Forces?

The stain of not defeating the Kaiju is on the Defense Force.

I don't like them because of the similarities.

It's like, "I like broccoli, but I don't like cauliflower."

Get it?

Are you done?

Yeah, sure.

The Special Forces are directly under the Prime Minister after all.

We are in command.

I've also instructed my field personnel to do the same.

First Lieutenant Obinata Arata.

Oh, your junior from your Special Forces days?

Amane...

Are you on the side of the Special Forces?

Or...

It's the hotline from the President.

Okay.

I see.

But why am I in charge of the garbage disposal?

Your excellence means you have a grip on the center, right?

If I think positively about it.

What's your point?

In the end, they’re going to put all the blame on the Special Forces.

Even if I were to disappear, it would be fine.

I'm a person who disappeared once after all.

Don't worry about the outcome before it starts.

Right.

Anyway, I'm leaving you in charge of the scene.

If there's a problem, I'll take the blame.

Yukino! You don't have to open the door, it's useless.

I'm sorry.

- Good work.
- Good morning Ma’am!

But, Minister of the Environment, going to the body before it is safe...

That's not why I'm going.

Every first move depends on speed.

All you need is the fact that you went before anyone else!

Environment Minister, this is First Lieutenant Obinata Arata, who is in charge of the site.

- Nice to meet you!
- Nice to meet you too, Ma'am!

She is Amane Yukino.

She's my top brain on the Kaiju matters.

I'm the secretary to the Environment Minister.

We are looking forward to your cooperation on the Kaiju case...

Long time, no see.

Long time, no see.

Oh, you know each other?

Passed 2 km point.

Are you okay?

The Minister is strangely in a hurry.

I guess political ambition comes with a risk.

I guess she's already in the struggle for control of the post-Kaiju world.

Minister, we'll be at the Kaiju body point shortly.

Is that so?

Over there.

So big...

I-It's dead!

Yes, Ma'am.

To be honest, they don't care either way!

Don’t the citizens think that way?

Now that our troops have suffered casualties in the extermination of the Kaiju,

it's time for the criticism to come this way.

First, we need to spread sweets in the name of restoration and reconstruction

of temporary housing infrastructure for residents in areas where they cannot return home.

No! We don't have that kind of budget.

How much do you think the Defense Force spent to kill the Kaiju?

You say that now?

It's like dividing the amount of money you spent on your ex by the number of times you had sex with her.

Well... however.

We need to suppress public criticism with a safety declaration.

- Sorry I'm late.
- Why, hello... Oh, it's you.

What was it like? Was it big?

It's more than I expected.

Look at this.

What?! Wow!

It's huge!

It's much larger than I thought.

Whoa! Wow!

What?!

What about those scars on its body?

Then let's get serious.

What?

Oh, this is an image from our military’s satellite.

Huh?

This is a top-level military secret...

No, no, no...

- What was that?
- That's not it...

It's this, this.

Perhaps this light killed the Kaiju.

Not god of wind but god of light, huh?

That's very good, Sir.

Would the rest of the world like to see a dead Kaiju?

Whoa, that's some chuckle.

Of course they'd like to see that.

Hey, Satsuda.

Are you sure?

T-This is the calculated data of the trial.

And the d-data is dependent on personal interests.

I-I'm not sure I can give an exact number, but...

Too long! It's too long of a preamble in case you made a mistake.

But in the first place...

The number of foreigners visiting the country, which is currently close to zero,

will be approximately 100 million in the first year after the Kaiju is released to the public.

The inbound demand would be 12 trillion yen.

Hurrah!

Hurrah!

I think we have no choice but to show the Kaiju!

- Prime Minister.
- Yes?

We've already started checking for viruses.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Let's declare safety as soon as possible.

Neighboring country: "Japan is responsible
for the disposal of the Kaiju's corpse."

Department of Foreign Affairs
Wosuok, Deputy Director of the Press Department

The Kaiju is dead, but there's no telling what kind of toxic substances might be released from the body.

Your country is responsible for everything, including safety.

It sure is dead.

More than expected!

Like furniture you see at the furniture store, but when you put it in your house,

it's bigger than you thought it would be.

But still, its heat is really intense.

I wonder if it means the energy that it had was intense too.

Look over there.

What is that?

Is it a swelling due to decay?

It's just like a dead whale expands that has been washed up on the beach.

It's swelling faster than expected.

What's abolished is an assumption.

What was not abolished is a fact.

What's your point?

I guess the question is

"How do you clean it up?"

Whoa! It stinks!

This is very nasty.

That sure is a bad smell!

What is this?

Ladies and gentlemen! The Kaiju is dead!

The time of judgment is finally coming for humans!

Ladies and gentlemen, the Kaiju is dead!

The time of judgment is finally coming for humans!

Not the MHLW, not the MECSST, but the Ministry of the Environment will issue the safety declaration.

But the MHLW will conduct a thorough examination to determine the presence of bacteria and radioactivity.

Kaiju body fluid and epidermal samples collected by Special Forces

are at the MHLW's research facility.

What if it's a bluff?

I think that Mr. Shikishima, the Special Forces captain, is telling the truth.

You were in the Special Forces, weren't you?

Yes.

Can't you get the results from that guy in the Special Forces?

Well...

Get back, get back!

As a married woman, you don't want to owe your ex-boyfriend anything, do you?

Minister, that's...

The value of information is proportional to its freshness.

You're a clever girl. You know what I'm talking about.

The Second Ship is coming back.

Yeah.

Is it surely useless now?

Either way,

the monster has became a large corpse.

The real test begins here.

Disposing of the bodies will bring relief and hope as far as public sentiment is concerned.

Even if it reports directly to the prime minister, to give it to the Special Forces is...

As I recall, that Amane came from Special Forces.

We, the Defense Force, are the only ones who can respond to an emergency situation caused by a dead body.

At this point, regardless of the means, we should put the results first.

So results are more important than ethics...

Lathering soap with pubic hair makes it lather better.

Isn't that what you're saying?

Oh, my God.

Yeah, it was terrible.

The smell doesn't come off at all.

- Shizuno-kun, may I have a moment?
- Yes.

This TEM image is very blurry.

Yes. I will analyze it right away.

I was wondering if you would allow me to change

the protocol for the fixation process of these cells from last month's conference.

Got it. Understood.

Thank you very much.

Oh!

Ms. Yukki.

So for now...

you haven't found anything particularly dangerous or unknown bacteria?

Yes, it's confidential though.

To be honest, it's not worth the treat of grilled meat,

even if it's a request from my senior from the Special Forces.

But it's 70 thousand for the two of us!

- You're being too loud.
- Oh, sorry.

How about radioactivity?

The Geiger counter didn't even twitch.

So who the hell is the queen?

The rumors surrounding the Kaiju's corpse are probably already spreading!

Right.

Like the loquat seeds from the area may or may not have been shaped like a Kaiju.

Rumors sure are accurate.

What are the Special Forces doing?

Just because you would say "swoosh" when you ran

doesn't mean you can run faster.

Why not make a skeletal specimen?

Let's not do that.

It's going to rot if we don't do something.

Geez...

I wonder if it will be hot again today?

No thank you with the blandness!!

- Everyone!
- Huh?

Don't forget that the corpse will be the best tourist attraction in the world!

MHLW is analyzing the sample data, right?

We're working on it, but we'll need time.

What exact time would it be ready?!

I told you! We're currently checking on it!

Bacteria are also normal putrid bacteria. Methane gas is also being emitted.

Radioactivity is less than 0.01 microsievert.

What else do you need?

It's been leaked.

That's enough!

Nobody saw you, right?

No.

Here...

What's this?

It looks like unidentified fungal filament.

Fungal filament?

A type of mold?

Yes, probably.

We just don't know what it is.

What are the risks?

So far, no problematic data has emerged.

Did Yukino know about this?

No, the images in the documents I gave to the Ministry of the Environment have been switched.

I'm just wondering if there's any problem in declaring it safe...

We will soon be live-streaming a press conference with Prime Minister Nishiotachime.

Prime Minister's Residence

The government will be making

an important announcement regarding the Kaiju corpse shortly.

The Prime Minister will be here in the press room at 11:45.

No details of the presentation have been disclosed...

Fungal filament?

It's a mold or something else. Anyway, they say it's unconfirmed.

Why such horrible timing?!

Should we cancel the safety declaration?

No, that's impossible at this stage.

True. Who else knows about this?

Only a few people know about it.

Don't you ever leak it.

If we announced that unidentified fungal filament came from a Kaiju corpse after all this time, people would freak out.

Is it good intentions so as not to make the public uneasy?

Yes, that's it.

All for the people's right not to know.

We have something to inform the public.

Every scientific study has shown that the Kaiju corpse

has no negative effects on us humans.

The Minister of the Environment can attest to that herself.

Citizens of Japan,

I, Renbutsu, am currently at the corpse of the Kaiju!

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the produce and fish from the area near the Kaiju's corpse.

More importantly, ladies and gentlemen...

This view is amazing!

I, Renbutsu, would like to preserve the corpse of the Kaiju with the latest technology,

and show it to the children all over the world!

I, Renbutsu, hereby declare on behalf of the government that it is safe...

Aaah!

- Ah!
- Minister!

Oh, no...

Criticized Prime Minister Nishiotachime for
demanding the return of the Kaiju's corpse

Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spokesperson
Yemen Uhissi

That Kaiju originated on our continental shelf.

We own the corpse, and of course they are obligated to return it to our country.

As a result, the Minister of the Environment has shown herself to be safe,.

and as soon as it's safe, they changed their minds.

Of course, that would happen.

It did happen.

I thought it is time to make our next move.

You're already thinking about it, huh?

It's na...

It’s naming.

The name of the Kaiju?

I think it's the first step toward making use of that Kaiju as a tourist attraction.

I would like to ask you all to come up with an appropriate name for the Kaiju.

If possible, it has foreign words... Okay?

The person who will preside over this meeting is...

Mr. Kaneda Hajime from the National Institute for Japanese Language and Linguistics.

Pleased to be working with everyone.

Thank you very much.

Explosion?!

Yeah, and that might also happen in the near future.

We don't know all the details yet,

but we think that, like the lower part of the corpse the other day,

there is decomposing gas that is accumulating in the fascia.

Now, I would like to announce the name of the Kaiju that was just approved by the cabinet.

The name of the Kaiju is...

"Hope."

What?

- That's so lame!
- It's a Kaiju, right?

The issue is out! The name of the Kaiju has been announced!

It is not a question of whether or not the Kaiju is worthy or unworthy!

The name of this largest specimen in the history of human biology

is "hope" sprouting in a destroyed land!

We don't understand!

That's all!

Why is the Defense Force in charge of disposing of the body?

I don't know. The commander who was in charge of leading the Kaiju operation

is now in charge of planning and executing the plan.

Kaiju extermination specialist...

What kind of person is he?

I'm Masago of the Kaiju Disposal Unit, National Defense Force.

I'll be brief.

Why are you excluding us from the mission?

Don't you know?

I'm an expert in Kaiju disposal.

The government has also approved this cooling operation.

Cooling operation?

The liquefied carbon dioxide gas will surely freeze its body.

It's perfect except for one thing.

One thing? What is it?

That it's a little too romantic.

White smoke makes a winning "Frozen Witches."

Freeze it?

It's horrible.

You know how frozen tangerines get soggy when they melt?

That's it!

I don't eat frozen tangerines.

I wasn't asking that.

We'll make a decision after hearing the expert's opinions.

It's already spring. The morning sun will melt it as soon as it rises.

Worst case scenarios are just excuses for our own imperfections.

Anyway, discretion is ours.

Is it also your "discretion" to carry out a missile attack on your own initiative

when you landed on the island of Hope

and burned down a civilian building as a result?

We, too, want to preserve the corpse of Hope

and share that feeling with you.

No...

Let's do it! Okay?

Good intentions are tricky, aren't they?

Malice is a much better nature.

Arata...

You punk!

What do you think caused the bulging?

Maybe it's because the Minister of the Environment got stuck?

Do you find it funny? Do you find people's misfortunes amusing?

- It's funny.
- What?

It's a generalization, just a generalization.

Just a generalization, generalization!

We need to minimize damage to the corpse

and stop the expansion of the bulging.

If the damage continues, its value will decrease both scientifically and as a tourist resource.

Has the U.S. offered help?

I don't think we should receive any aid.

Once we receive aid

they will ask us part of the corpse for every dollar they put out.

That's right.

The president said, "Give me a tail."

I wonder what it is.

Roger.

Any movement on internal pressure?

We'll cool it all down at once and freeze it inside the Kaiju's cells.

Yes, Ma'am.

Every time it blows, it gets colder. Hopefully.

Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!

Hurry up! Hurry! Hurry!

Hope's surface temperature rises! Ice began to thaw!

Thyroid rot rises, internal pressure 500 kilopascals!

Hope freezing not successful! Ice chunks are peeling off extensively!

Reporting! The internal pressure of the bulging is 500 kilopascals.

Permission to drill into the bulging ASAP!

Prime Minister!

We have to make a hole, hole, hole!

Is this some kind of punishment game?

What do we do? If we don't vent a hole in the bulging, it will explode.

A hole? Then let's use our small missiles and boom!

No! If you open a big hole like that, its property value will go down

One hole could cost hundreds of billions of yen in lost inbound revenue.

Making a hole is a last resort!

There is no other way.

I'll make the decision on the spot.

If you do anything rash, the Special Forces will be lost.

We're also working on a countermeasure plan as soon as possible.

Then you won't make it in time!

We'll contact you within 10 minutes with our decision.

But!

It exploded!

Get out! Get out!

T-This stinks!

Mr. Minister of Defense, the operation to freeze has failed, hasn't it?

We are currently investigating.

Mr. Minister of Defense,

did the spraying of liquefied carbon dioxide gas make the rotting worse?

Listen here! You can't tell the difference between tears from crying because you're sad

and tears from pulling out your nose hairs, can you?

- What does that mean?!
- Minister, please!

Minister! Minister, please answer!

- Oh...
- Hey...

Ow, ow...

- Thank you.
- No problem.

Ms. Environment Minister, the decomposition bulge of Hope's corpse exploded, didn't it?

We're currently checking on it.

What about expanding the evacuation zone to a 15-kilometer radius?

Because of the strong odor emanating from the corpse.

What kind of smell is it?

I'm told it smells like poop or vomit.

Is it poop? Is it vomit?

- We're checking on it right now!
- Please clarify!

Is it poop? Is it vomit?

Vomit that is as close to poop as you can get!

...more or less. That's all!

Minister! Minister!

What do you want to say?

You still smell.

What?!

They say he's the new commander.

Decisive response to the Kaiju stench,
a turnaround from the demand for restitution

Department of Foreign Affairs
Spokesperson Yemen Uhissi

We are very concerned about this smell,
which could be poop or vomit.

and will take decisive action if the smell reaches our land.

How selfish can they be!

Maybe I'll send the corpse over by boat.

So that they hope to meet their expectations.

So that they "hope"...

So we should do something quickly.

Who's the Special Forces in charge on site?

No, not the Special Forces, but who from the Defense Forces?

What was Arata doing?

The Special Forces had lost command of the field.

I'm told that the cabinet blocked Bent's permit.

You should shut up!

Amane, don't be hard on her just because she's your wife.

Besides...

Is it poop or is it vomit?

We have to show the public something.

Which would have a better image.

I'd probably choose vomit.

What if we choose the middle?

Aah!

I am here to inform the public

that what is emanating from the corpse of Hope

is the smell of ginkgo biloba.

So you're going to take direct command, like you wanted?

No, we're just making adjustments to make it easier for the Special Forces to do their job.

The Special Forces will remain in command of the field.

A secretary to the prime minister with a special forces background...

exactly the right person for the job!

Captain! The damage to the corpse of Hope...

Arata, he is Amane, the director of Hope Processing Task Force.

Hey.

Long time no see.

We can work together again.

Of course, I'll get Yukino to work on it too.

I didn't think the three of us would ever do anything together back then.

Hey, Aoshima! Wait!

I'll see what that photosphere is.

- That's a clear violation of rules!
- I know.

You don't think it was just a meteorite?

I think it's something more brilliant...

It's coming! Watch out!

Arata...

I will not be left behind.

Watch out!

Arata!

Arata!!

Your feet...

I don't feel it anymore.

In any case, thanks to the blunder of the Defense Force, the Special Service

has once again been given back the authority to dispose of Hope's corpse.

If we don't take the next step before the authorities do, things will go from bad to worse!

So being on-site is like this...

Anyway, the next time another explosion occurs,

the area affected will more than double in size.

Depending on the direction of the wind, a 20-kilometer radius northwest of the body

will be covered in the smell of ginkgo biloba.

Gingko?

Mr. Shikishima, do you really think they smell like ginkgo biloba?

Well, I'm...

Amane, don't make me say anything I don't have to.

Mr. Obinata, Mr. Obinata.

- Mr. Obinata.
- Oh...

- What's wrong?
- There's someone who wants to see you.

Me?

I'm Obinata.

You scared me.

I am "Yamikumo."

Yamikumo...

Hmm.

Is that possible?

Yes, this is the principle of the smoke evacuation system.

Can you show us again?

Sure.

Basically, it uses internal decomposing gas.

Two vent holes are drilled in the bottom of the bulging, and a pipe is used to guide

the decaying gases along the shape of the bulging.

And we drill another hole at the top of the bulging.

Then the rising gas is pulled by the decaying gas around the uplift,

which forms a tornado and rises up to the upper stratosphere.

What do you think?

If the gases inside the second decomposing bulging could be brought up to the stratosphere,

the ozone would decompose most of the stench.

I don't believe what Mr. Yamikumo says, but...

Let's stop judging people by their names.

Is it possible?

Think about it seriously.

Arata, what do you think since you're in charge?

The question is how to puncture the exact location of the Kaiju's decomposing bulge.

A small missile!

No, let's be more delicate.

Do we need to pierce the position and angle precisely?

Yup! If there's even the slightest deviation, the airflow will reverse and blow toward the ground.

If that happens, the ginkgo area will expand.

Or we could just use dynamite directly into the decomposing bulging...

He's the only one who can do it.

Him?

But he's been missing since he left the Special Forces, right?

But his technique...

Do you know his cell phone number?

- I don't know!
- Who is that guy anyway?

- Shut up!
- Whoa, he's angry.

Let me think about it for a minute.

I don't think we have that kind of time to spare.

Just who is this "Yamikumo"?

He is the president of a small factory in a town

that mainly manufactures smoke exhaust systems for barbeque restaurants...

What?

So he's not a university researcher or anything.

Yes, he's from Machiba...

Then there's no point in taking him seriously.

Well... That's true.

And his name "Yamikumo" sounds like viewing clouds eight times...

It can also mean blindly, blindly.

Right?

Mr. Chief Cabinet Secretary.

I'm not so sure about judging people by their names.

I know.

I understand.

I'm sorry!

We can't just let it rot there.

To tell you the truth, they said it is a tourist resource

but it's more like poop.

Please wait.

What did you say?

- Poop...
- That's it!

- Why are there flushing toilets?
- What?

Submerging the waste in water prevents the odor from spreading.

How about we sink Hope into the sea...

Sinking it to the sea?

How safe are the residents in the watershed?

Of course we'll secure them. We'll evacuate them to a safe place 10 hours before the execution.

Even if the calculated water flow is enough to overflow Hope, it won't go over the levee.

Okay. In any case, we'll need an emergency cabinet decision before we go ahead with blowing up the dam.

Minister, we'll leave that to you.

Usually, the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Finance both screw over the Ministry of the Environment.

We and the Special Forces will work together to get it done.

Yukino, you have to be number one here.

This gadget spoofs my GPS location.

I'm supposed to be at a research institute right now.

So you're in a department that needs this kind of thing.

The interests of the state take priority over the dignity of an individual.

So I'm doing this on my own.

What's the secret behind doing something this dangerous?

Don't make fun of me.

"Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain" and "Adulterous Mother" are similar.

Please leave already!

I don't know who she is, but she's scary!

Don't worry. He's from a credible agency.

Though he doesn't look like that.

So don't expect the food to taste great.

What?

Your surprised look is still the same as ever.

Anyway, the Minister of the Environment has made a move

and obtained the informal consent of the Prime Minister and the Chief Cabinet Secretary to blow up the Mitsuha Dam.

As expected, she goes straight for the kill.

How about the blueprints of the dam?

I got it from the MLA via my husband.

Did Amane cooperate?

Yeah, power is something you use when push comes to shove.

That punk...

Can the Special Forces do it?

I think your idea is worth a shot.

This tired, ultra-conservative country needs that leap.

What?

I don't know if I've ever gotten that many compliments before.

No, I'm not really...

Calculations show that water does not go over the levee.

After ensuring the safety of the residents in the watershed,

we're going to blow up the now abandoned Mitsuha Dam.

I still need that man's skills after all.

You know where to find him, don't you?

My brother?

If it works out, will you tell me your secret?

Secret?

Why did you disappear three years ago?

That's...

Then...

Do you want me to continue to live with the remnants of me liking you?

Okay, okay.

I look forward to working with you.

I still love you.

Yukino.

What are you thinking?

Yes?

Excuse me for interrupting.

It's about the light, isn't it?

Yes.

The image analysis of the light at the time of the Kaiju's death has revealed certain facts.

Is that what you said awhile ago?

Yes, but we'll need to analyze the images further to be sure.

Understood, please continue.

Ignition.

Why is he called "Blues"?

- His name is Aoshima.
- I see!

Isn’t Yukino’s last name also Aoshima?

Anyway, he had the best bombing techniques in the Special Forces.

Mr. Blues.

It's been a long time.

Ow...

Before the second decomposing bulge explodes......

I told you!

I don't have to deal with that kind of thing anymore.

We need your help with this project.

You can't just come in here and tell me what to do.

I know that, but...

Now please help us save this country.

No dog will eat a corpse that has rotted away.

What?

I'm not getting involved with you guys anymore.

Wait!

Come on, leave!

Watch out, watch out!

Hot!

3 years ago

I'm off then, Mom.

Yukino, what about your wedding?

I'll talk to you next time.

I'm glad Arata is a nice person.

I wonder if I'll live to see Yukino's wedding.

An emergency vehicle is passing, traveling at top priority.

Please give priority to all vehicles.

Since the recent explosion of Hope’s decomposing bulge,

a new decomposing bulge has formed in the same location and continues to expand.

as such, the government has expanded the evacuation zone to a 20 km radius.

The no-entry zone has been expanded to a 15 km radius, and all the municipalities concerned have been notified.

The ginkgo scent generated during the explosion of the decomposing bulge...

- Oh no...
- What's wrong?

My village is also in the evacuation zone.

Again.

At this rate, I’ll no longer have a home to go back to.

Mr. Blues.

Salute!

Attention!

- We've been waiting for you.
- It's been a while!

This way, Sir.

This way.

So... what do you want me to do?

When Hope travels up the river

we will destroy all the bridges to the ocean.

There is one abandoned dam upstream...

It was scheduled to be torn down soon.

Mere water discharge is not enough.

You're going to break it down and flush it to the sea?

Yes.

So that's why flush toilets don't smell as bad.

Amane.

Long time no see, brother-in-law.

When did you come back to Special Forces?

No, I'm working with the prime minister now.

He's the Supervisor of Hope Corpse Disposal.

Of course, I'll just stay on the sidelines.

How was it?

The Mitsuha Dam project is off the table.

Oh no! Why?!

The Minister of LITT, who has jurisdiction over the dam, is against it.

Permission was not granted!

What's wrong?

Minister...

Now the Mitsuha Dam is no longer in use,

we're managing it for an environmental study...

Really?

Yes, Ma'am.

Alright!

The Ministry of the Environment has been taken for a fool so far.

A new morning has come, hope...

After submerging Hope, we build a waterproof enclosure surrounding the desired area

and replace the seawater and anti-rotting chemicals inside.

- So called formalin dipping.
- Look of the sky~

~ With the voice of the radio ~

This is not the smell of ginkgo!

This is a vomit added with poop!

It's a vomit added poop!

Don't mock the people!

People are sensitive to the smell.

Otherwise, they'll say your mouth stinks, your armpits stink, your navel stinks...

How can an "industry of fear that may stink" make this kind of money?

Speed is our top priority, and we are currently in the process of getting the blueprints

from the MLIT for the Mitsuha Dam that we need to blow up.

In the end, the result is Operation Chastise.

What's that?

During World War II, the British destroyed two dams to cut off power

to German industrial areas spilling 330 million tons of water in one fell swoop, the so-called "dambuster."

How about the air strikes?

There are no recoil bombs anywhere in the world.

- And we're going to do it?
- That's the only way.

What a pain in the butt!

We already dam got the blueprints from Amane.

He's pretty clever like that.

You are the only one who can do it.

Probably 3,000 kilograms of explosives.

Dams are weak below the waterline because of water pressure.

We'll set them on specific points and crack them all at once.

And we have 36 hours to execute the operation.

Can we make it in time?

I don't know about that.

Do you think it's going to work to dump the body into the ocean?

It's probably 50-50.

Oh well.

It'll buy us some time.

I think it means we have no choice.

If it fails, the Defense Forces will move in once again.

Yeah, body disposal has suddenly become a tasty business.

The U.S. military, via the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has also approached us about disposing the Kaiju’s corpse.

Different people want Hope...

They wants to dispose of it, but...

What jurisdiction is it originally under?

It's...

It's a dead animal, so it's at the health department!

Ow!

Hey, check the drilling depth.

How deep is it now?

25% maybe.

M28 Center.

Next would be 20 dynamites in Q37.

"Blue Hell'' means you're really into it.

Yeah, it's been a while.

Special Forces First Strike Team
Aoshima

Okay, let's do it once.

Testing explosive ignition!

5PM the Next Day
Final confirmation of temporary evacuation of watershed residents in preparation for dam release

- Is this road, okay?
- It's okay, let's hurry up.

A large amount of water will be released from Mitsuha Dam upstream.

We ask that you temporarily vacate the premises in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

A large amount of water will be released from Mitsuha Dam upstream.

8PM
Final checks continue for trespassers after residents have evacuated.

No biological reaction.

Ah, w-wait!

Ah, it's just a deer.

All right, keep going along the river at a slow speed.

Roger.

Mukogawa sneak peeking right now.

I almost got found out.

I'd love to get 100 million views on my Kaiju video.

All right, all right.

The necessary resources will arrive shortly.

Really? That's good.

All right, let's do a final check on each group right before ignition.

Are you okay with each loading operation?

Yes, the resistance is 400 ohms. It's perfectly all right.

I don't have any problem with main and sub tamping.

Let's check the blasting pattern with the lasers in order of ignition.

- Okay!
- Got it!

It's illuminated this way.

Whoa!

If that's the case, let's check the ignition path!

2AM
Final confirmation of dam blasting completed.

Okay, good.

Arata...

This can be done before sunrise.

Kunugi, contact the HQ! We need final confirmation of evacuation of residents.

3AM
Start moving to the second point

Roger!

Carry out the bombing as planned.

The time of the bombing will be at 0400.

It's about time.

30 minutes from explosion till arrival of water.

Hope, we'll let you out of here!

Evacuation of the basin residents is complete.

Roger.

Final safety check complete.

It's almost 4:00.

5 seconds.

4... 3... 2... 1...

Ignition.

No way...

Hey!

The wall at the bottom of the dam was a double structure!

But the blueprints are indeed of the Mitsuha dam.

We got the blueprints that were before the redesign!

Don't tell me, Amane did this...

It's your lucky day when a backup bomb comes to save the day.

You stay here.

- What about the detonator switch?
- No need!

At a depth of 20 meters, the fuse automatically activates.

I'm steering the boat! Otherwise you won't be able to get to safety before it blows up...

It's a habit of losers to predict and dread losing.

No, but...

You get the other one ready!

As the temperature rises, so does the danger.

What is the internal pressure?

Currently 200 kilopascals.

It's rising.

How long do you think it will last before it explodes?

I believe 500 kilopascals was the limit.

Data shows it would explode after approximately an hour.

Please...

Fly as low as you can.

Roger.

Blues, this is Arata. Respond.

Blues, this is Arata, respond!

The second decomposing bulging is now at 400 kilopascals.

Internal pressure will soon exceed the limit.

Hurry up!

Mrs. Amane, it's dangerous. Let's get away.

- Wait.
- What?

It's coming!

Blues, this is Arata, respond!

Blues, this is Arata, respond!

We'll be near Hope's corpse shortly.

Blues, this is Arata, respond!

It's moving.

Thank goodness. That's great.

What?!

Hello.

Whenever you make a move, it's always with an ulterior motive.

The loyal dog Hachiko didn't go to Shibuya

to pick up his dead master.

It's because he got fed.

- Woof!
- What?

What was that?

I had him come.

Next, the sooner the better.

The administration is no longer a lame duck.

Next...

Will we be getting ducks, or leeks…

"Bald" and "Runt" are both written with the same kanji.

Is he conscious?

I see...

We'll...

be dismissed, right?

Most likely.

There's nothing more I can do.

You sure know when to give up.

You don't always show us who you really are.

Now you're making accusations?

What happened in those two years that you disappeared?

You could have told us a little bit!

I don't know why I like someone with such a void.

I don't know.

In any case, command of the disposal of the body of Hope

will henceforth be transferred to the Defense Force.

With all due respect, Hope's decomposing bulge has in fact shrunk to an internal pressure of 200 kilopascals.

That's the power of the Special Forces.

Why do you take the side of the Special Forces?

It's like buying a souvenir knowing it's a hand-rolled ball of moss.

You could say that.

- Do you understand what he means?
- No.

So you don't get it.

What does the Defense Force intend to do about the second decomposing bulge?

What about a small missile to vent the bulge?

It's the best way to go at the moment.

If you shoot it with a missile,

gingko gas will erupt all at once from the decomposing bulge

and cause extensive secondary damage.

That's why we drill a hole in the lower part of the bulge to minimize spreading.

It's just like catching flying squirrels.

Flying squirrels?! I'm sorry about that.

It doesn't matter what it means at this point, what we need are results!

Minimal doesn't mean zero damage.

Some sacrifices are unavoidable for the sake of the national interest.

Minimal doesn't mean zero damage.

Some sacrifice is unavoidable for the sake of the national interest.

- Amane.
- Yes, Sir?

How about the previous method?

Yes, Sir.

At this point in time, the previous method has a pretty good chance of success.

Simply put, it's the principle of smoke exhaust from a barbecue...

I thought you denied everything at the time.

No, it was just sealed up for the time being for scientific accuracy.

So you pretended to dismiss it but will reuse it...

That's so like you.

So it's like a barbecue restaurant.

That sounds better than flying squirrels.

Tell us how! We'll do it!

No, I will be in charge of this matter.

The Special Forces will be directly under the command of the Defense Forces for missiles and other necessary equipment.

That is fine with you, right? Prime Minister.

Yes!

Thanks for calling.

As I told you on the phone, things have gone from bad to worse.

I guess this is no time to get personal.

Yeah, the gases in the decomposing bulge of Hope were supposed to be harmless, just stinky.

That's right.

The MHLW's research institute has already proven that, hasn't it?

But they were mixed in with the indigenous bacteria.

What is it?

Fungal filament.

Fungal filament?

I've heard what you said.

Who else knows about this?

Including us, there are very few.

Hey, do you think I'm okay?

What do you mean?

The minister was stuck in Hope.

Any change in your body?

Nothing so far.

So it can be tolerated...

Minister, let me examine your cells.

What? I'm not a cyborg.

Minister, that's enough.

The data is a top state secret.

I know.

- Can I ask one question?
- What is it?

Is that mushroom of a different kind?

Minister.

That is not a mushroom.

Then...

Oops...

Canceled?

You can't do that now!

So you don't mind if a 15-kilometer radius is covered in mushrooms?

It's okay. They're just mushrooms.

With all due respect,

once mushrooms start multiplying, they spread at an incredible rate.

They won't be contained within the 15-kilometer radius.

People, animals, land, everything will be covered in mushrooms!

After ginkgo, now there are mushrooms. Are we doing a bar?

- All this is unnecessary.
- True.

Either way, it's not going to stop.

And the Defense Forces are out of control.

The Minister of Defense just wants an achievement.

Prime Minister, under the current circumstances, no matter what the mushrooms grow on...

What?

No, it's nothing.

Huh? That mushroom is of a different kind!

Prime Minister, that is not a mushroom.

Then what is it?

That suit takes me back.

Ironic, isn't it?

Since I've already abandoned the Special Forces...

Abandoned?

But because of my mistake that time...

You still feel guilty?

And the reason you married me was atonement for it.

No...

There's something else on my mind.

Arata...

Arata?

Why did Arata disappear into the light that time?

Why did he return safely two years later?

Arata's missing time...

Do you know something?

"The Chosen One."

The Chosen One?

I'm sure you've heard the rumors too.

- Does that mean...
- That's all I can say right now.

- New fact?
- Yes.

In the center of that intense light, there was an area of varying brightness...

Simply put, they are shadows?

The problem is its shape.

Dr. Inugami.

Can you determine from its shape what was in the center of the light?

Yes, I'm sure you've seen it before.

Excuse me, Sir...

It’s probably this.

- Excuse me, Sir!
- No, don't worry about it.

Hey, Mom.

What do you think I should do?

Ah...

What's this?

Your brother pointed out in the blueprint where the explosives would be planted.

Based on the same information,

Amane said the Defense Forces could fire missiles to penetrate three locations.

That’s not going to work.

Without drilling a hole in the exact location of the second decomposing bulge,

the updraft that Mr. Yamikumo was talking about will not be created.

Amane is determined.

Can you stop him?

If this continues, a large number of people will have trouble returning home.

Okay.

I came to make a promise.

Promise?

Yukino.

I'll tell you everything after this is over.

Why...

I disappeared that time.

Everything...

I see.

Hey, Arata.

I'm sure you came to say goodbye, didn't you?

That's not true.

Just that...

Happiness is on the other side of Hope...

...I think.

Don't worry about me.

I'll be waiting for you on the other side of Hope.

15-kilometer post, all clear.

We can't do it here too.

Might as well go on foot.

No, it's 15 kilometers from here. It's too far.

I guess so.

UPLOAD

Minister of the Environment
Letter of Resignation

From now on, our forces

will conduct the operation under the command of Mr. Amane.

- Excuse me.
- What's wrong?

There's a leak.

Disgusting.

Amane, you should call off the operation.

Outsiders are not allowed to enter.

What are you doing here?

It won't work as it is now. We have to put a hole precisely.

Get out of the way.

Missile accuracy is in millimeters.

You rejected Yamikumo's proposal!

Although based on Yamikumo's proposal,

it's based on a recalculation using Fugaku to control the missile.

It's a different thing altogether.

Internal pressure is 350 kilopascal.

The decomposition bulge will explode when it's about 550 kilopascals.

There's still time.

Yukino, that means there's no turning back.

Chief Cabinet Secretary! Are you going to cancel the destruction of the bulge by missiles?

No comment!

Did the government know that mushrooms can grow on the human body?

No comment!

Why? Mr. Secretary!

Stop!

Secretary! Mr. Secretary!

Stop! Stop!

Everywhere is sealed off.

Wait!

Complete evacuation!

Complete evacuation!

On board! Get on board!

Hurry up, hurry up!

What are you doing?

Just gonna check something.

What? Where's the blockade?

- Evacuation complete!
- Roger!

- You don't know?
- What?

If you don't want mushrooms growing on you, you need to evacuate immediately.

What? I don't know anything about mushrooms.

Thank you, Yukino.

Hope's second decomposing bulge's internal pressure has exceeded 400 kilopascals.

Aim the missile

at the second decomposing bulge’s lower 1st and 2nd drilling points.

Anyway, Chief Cabinet Secretary, buy me some time.

It's too bothersome.

You wanted to see me?

You knew this would happen, right?

Of course, I thought a leak was one way to do it.

Minister of the Environment!

Because of you, our country is in a mess!

What is it?! Stop it, please. Stop it!

Ah... I'm down!

I don't know what's going on.

If left alone, it usually will explode.

Now let's find a reason to do it.

I need a confirmation.

What's wrong?

There's a person at the top of Hope!

Arata.

Internal pressure is now 450 kilopascal.

Mr. Blues.

I trust your skills.

You wanted to see me?

If I have to use the dambuster,

you're going to use that drilling exhaust launcher

to drill into that decomposing bulge, just like that Yamikumo told you to do.

Then this is...

Use this to find the exact locations.

Arata is at the top of Hope!

We have to stop the missiles!

Wait!

You bastard!

You idiot!

Prime Minister.

The missile launch...

I allow it...

The pressure is 460 kilopascal.

480 kilopascal.

The decomposing bulge’s lower portion outer skin is breaking off!

The skin has broken off.

80% of inner membrane exposed!

1st and 2nd drilling points internal pressure within expectation.

There’s still someone at the top…

I don't care.

Prepare to launch the missiles.

Ready to launch missiles!

Fire.

Why? What's the situation?

Confirming now.

That was close.

Arata... I won't allow you to leave me again.

500...

Airflow from the decomposing bulge confirmed.

The target is the third point at the top of the head.

The target is the third point at the top of the head.

Arata is there! Stop firing now!

Don’t worry about him.

Why? Why would you say that...

We're going to find out

just who the hell is he.

Almost there.

Okay!

510!

Prepare to launch missile No. 3.

Ready to fire!

No. 3...

Fire!

No!

Arata...

Arata...

What?

Deus ex machina.

I knew it.

The Chosen One...

Everyone.

It's the Light of God.

Godspeed.

Once again, a kaiju attacks this country!

Second installment of the cleaning up series!

Giant Kaiju Mera!

Should the shell and body be separated?

Yes, and the shell is unburnable trash... It doesn't matter!

Interesting.

About half the budget! Please look forward to it!
