| Saku | "...This ship is where the ANIMS pirates keep all of their spoils." |
| "Everything from stolen junk to mementos from our deceased companions reside here, cluttered together and passed down from generation to generation.." |
| "Among all these things, I especially enjoy looking at this small flower specimen everytime I clean up this space." |
| "With the original plant long extinct, this one has to be just a replica." |
| "Despite that, I still admire how this little specimen has persisted for such a long time on this ship." |
| Rat | "Hey, Saku. You done cleaning?" |
| Saku | "Oh, yeah. I only have the captain's room left…" |
| Rat | "Thanks, man. Here's your reward." |
| Saku | "Awmph…!" |
| Rat | "Woll made some real tasty sweets~" |
| Woll | "Rat! How many times have I told you not to eat the snacks!" |
| Rat | "Shit. Saku also did it!." |
| Saku | "What!?" |
| Woll | "God. Let me remind you, we don't have an infinite amount of food here." |
| Rat | "But we can resupply once we get to the next planet, can't we?" |
| Woll | "You forget we've got to preserve it in case of emergency?" |
| Rat | "Come on, dude. Stop being such a worrywart. There's no law enforcement around this area. I doubt there'll be any emergency." |
| *alarm sound ringing* |
| Rat | "Huh? What's happening?" |
| Woll | "Alarm?" |
| Rat | "I'll check it out!" |
| |
| Bat | "It's the space police!" |
| Tig | "Kick it into high gear!" |
| Dan | "Too late. We won't make it!" |
| Bat | "Damn. Look at how many they are. I haven't even sensed their presence yet and they've already got us surrounded!" |
| Doug | "Stop panicking! We ain't doing anything suspicious! Let's welcome them with open arms!" |
| Tig | "Doug, they look weird for just scouts." |
| Doug | "Prepare for emergency takeoff just in case." |
| Tig | "Roger." |
| Rat | "Why are the space police here?" |
| Woll | "That's rare." |
| Dan | "I've secured our escape route." |
| Izumi | (Everyone is in peak condition. I can feel their motivation all the way from here.) |
| |
| Ao | "This is the space police, open up! We have an arrest warrant for the robbery of the government ship ARC.." |
| Tig | "Government ship? What’s he talking about?" |
| Doug | "Oh, come on. They’ve got the wrong pirates!" |
| Suguri | "Arrest all of them. Don't let a single person escape." |
| Doug | "Detach the defense hatch! This is an emergency takeoff! We're getting outta here!" |
| |
| Suguri | "Tch." |
| Ao | "After them! Don't let them escape!" |
| Suguri | "Wait!" |
| |
| Tig | "This is bad. They're gaining on us!" |
| Doug | "Release the dock!" |
| Rat | "We can't! Saku is still there!" |
| Doug | "--." |
| Saku | "--uh." |
| Tig | "What are we going to do, Doug?" |
| Doug | "We'll all be arrested at this rate. Don't let me repeat it. Release the dock." |
| Rat | "Captain!" |
| Izumi | (As a captain, Doug is able to calmly make such heartless decisions… But we can still see a subtle glimpse of his personal feelings.) |
| |
| (Saku, who has been captured by the space police, is asked about the seized plant specimen.) |
| Suguri | "Tell me everything you know. Why would a pirate have this? Where did you get it?" |
| Saku | "…I have no idea. It's always been in my treasure chest ever since I was a child." |
| Suguri | "Tell me everything you know about A12." |
| Saku | "A12…? What is that?" |
| Suguri | "We won't make any progress if we don't have the handyman." |
| Ao | "Why are you so fixated on that specimen? I believe a replica like that can be found any…" |
| Suguri | "Look closely. This isn't a replica." |
| Ao | "What? There’s no way…" |
| Suguri | "It's been 17 years since Planet A12 disappeared. It was considered a treasure of nature and the only place where the Foundation Seed grows." |
| "It's not surprising if a specimen made during that time still exists today." |
| Ao | "Still, how in the world did pirates get a hold of this thing?" |
| Suguri | "…I want to know that too. We’ve been searching for this clue for 17 years." |
| Ao | "Suguri-san. Were you perhaps a part of that investigation team?" |
| Suguri | "Yeah. That place was like hell." |
| |
| Grimm | "Dad! I didn’t know the patrol ship was actually like this!" |
| Grimm's Father | "Don't wander around so much. You're going to bother people." |
| Grimm | "Got it!" |
| Suguri | "He's such a clever kid, just like you, inspector." |
| Grimm | "Sorry for asking you to do this for me. He wanted to see where I work for a school project." |
| Suguri | "Well. You can't take him to a brutal crime scene." |
| Officer | "Suguri-san! We discovered a suspicious ship." |
| Suguri | "Come again? Issue a warning and stop them." |
| Officer | "They noticed us and are making an escape now!" |
| Suguri | "Begin pursuit." |
| Grimm's Father | "Where are they going?" |
| Suguri | "That…" |
| Grimm's Father | "I see. It's not an A12 ship. They shouldn't be able to enter the planet if they don't have permission." |
| Suguri | "Don't tell me they're going to force their way onto the planet." |
| "Quick! Full steam ahead. Report to headquarters just in case." |
| |
| Suguri | "By the time we arrived, that land of paradise had been burned to the ground. There were no survivors… I still remember it clearly to this day." |
| "It was a huge loss to our galaxy. I can never forgive the culprit." |
| |
| Citron | (An officer with a dark past… a role that fits Guy perfectly. Look at you, getting so invested in it. Goodness.) |
| |
| Murasaki | "Hey. Are you in charge of the case involving the attack on the ARC VIP ship?" |
| Ao | "Who do you think you are?" |
| Suguri | "...What business do the ARC dogs have here?" |
| Murasaki | "We want to know the current status of the investigation. It'll save us time if you give us the updates." |
| Marine | "We'd like to ask for your cooperation." |
| Ao | "For you to come all the way here… did something happen?" |
| Marine | "It's not something that you have to know." |
| Murasaki | "Now, now. Why don't we give them one treat in return?." |
| Marine | "There's a possibility that FORTF is involved in this case." |
| Suguri | "Say what?" |
| Ao | "FORTF? Are you talking about the cult who collects all kinds of national treasures on the pretense of creating an utopia?" |
| Suguri | "Yeah. They're like terrorists." |
| Ao | "But why are they targeting the government ship?" |
| Murasaki | "I did say ‘one’ treat." |
| Marine | "It's your turn to talk now." |
| Suguri | "...Fine." |
| |
| Syu | (I see, so the Winter Troupe is playing the space police. They know themselves too damn well. It's impressive the way they can calmly escalate the situation..) |
| Itaru | (As expected, Azuma-san and Hisoka are both really good at playing enigmatic characters. Damn. I want that kind of chuuni role too, playing a policeman full of mystery.) |
| |
| Izumi | (Having escaped from the space police, the ANIMS discuss their next move.) |
| Rat | "Captain, let's save Saku!" |
| Tig | "It's too risky." |
| Dan | "In the first place, he's being falsely accused. We should have enough time before he faces prosecution." |
| Bat | "I seriously doubt they'll show mercy. I mean, we're pirates, y’know? If they search hard enough, they're bound to find evidence against us." |
| Woll | "So you're saying we should just ignore him?" |
| Tig | "All I'm saying is, we shouldn't be careless." |
| Dan | "What's your call, Captain?" |
| Doug | "..." |
| Rat | "Captain!" |
| Woll | "I thought you're not the kind of man who would throw away your friend." |
| Tig | "I'll go save Saku alone." |
| Dan | "That's reckless." |
| Tig | "But I'm the only one that can handle it." |
| Dan | "I can't deny it, but…" |
| Tig | "That's fine by you, right?" |
| Doug | "I don't mind. But… I'm going with you." |
| Tig | "You too? How about the ship, then?" |
| Doug | "I'll leave it to Dan. Can’t consider it reckless if I'm going, right?" |
| Rat | "As expected of the Captain!" |
| Woll | "Honestly, I want to tag along as well, but, guess I'm only going to get in your way. I can help you divert their attention, at the very least." |
| Bat | "We're gonna do our very very best to back you up." |
| Dan | "God. Fine. Every one of you really doesn't know how to be cautious." |
| |
| Hiro | (He did great at expressing how Doug's heart wavered… Even though he's someone he doesn't get along with, it doesn't mean he can just throw him away.) |
| Kasumi | (Whoa, everyone is so cool! I might be a die-hard Sakuya-kun stan, but at this rate I feel like I'll stan all of the newborn troupe members…!) |
| Izumi | (Because their roles were pretty much decided before the script was made, the Autumn Troupe members are able to make the most of their ability as much as they want.) |
