Concrete Revolutio ~Superhuman Phantasmagoria~
I heard it A voice cursing fate
I found it A way to use my power
What you want are not words, are they?
That love inside I want to send it on
Justice is not on my side
The only thing absolute for me is myself
Come on Wakers. Ready, go!
Protecting the illusions that somebody dreamed of
will liberate the stagnant sky
We hurl our unanswerable cries at each other
And they become the reason we live
What can I do in this hopeless world we live in?
Only those that keep searching
can become the future
Start the revolution!
(They are Always Laughing)
Yes. He looked different, but it was Hitoyoshi.
All right. I'll send backup.
No, I can handle it on my own.
Please don't tell Miss Kikko.
Really? But a kid would stand out there.
I'm...
I got it. I know what Hitoyoshi's aim is.
He's a hazard. Don't let your guard down.
(Moulin Rouge)
(Hilarious! The Mountain Horses)
Hey, wait!
Stop that Freeze, don't.
Stop it!
Darn it, Freeze!
What? I'm busy over here.
Hey, stop fooling around.
Excuse me a bit.
Oh gosh.
Cut it out already. Parihi!
It's the Thunder God.
You idiots!
So you want to work under us?
You sure? You'll have to carry instruments and stuff.
He won't be able to get beer for us.
So, you like us?
Yeah. You guys are so funny. I love you guys.
We're so happy to have so many people here.
We're not here for you.
Get the girls out here.
Oh, aren't I good enough?
Sure!
We, the Mountain Horses, have special powers.
Generate electricity.
Move things.
- Liar! - You're superhumans?
- We'll call the cops. - Oh, a slip of the tongue.
The scary Security Force will come for us.
Please keep it a secret.
We, the Mountain Horses,
gained these special powers 3 years ago.
That again?
June 30th of the 41st of Shinka Era.
It was at the Nippon Budokan.
The famous Quartet came and Japan was in an uproar.
Lots of Japanese singers were there to open.
But you must've forgotten.
Still the opening act?
They're copying Las Vegas with the comedians and stuff.
I went through quite some trouble to get these.
Let's enjoy it.
Hey, what are you doing?
He did it.
I didn't do anything.
What the heck?
We did it.
We played out our skit till the end.
I'm starry.
I mean, I'm sorry.
What's going on?
They're superhumans.
Those rumors...
They were true.
How do their powers feel like?
You don't feel anything?
It's said that their powers liberate human souls.
But I'm not human.
I can see it.
The music is a window.
There's a war going on somewhere in this world.
I can see into the souls of the young soldiers.
I'm not alone.
I'm connected through this universe.
Hey, you're going to the Budokan again, right?
That was just for yesterday.
Oh, then when's your next gig?
Excuse me a bit.
What the...?
What is this?
What's going on?
Honey, what are you doing?
A nervous breakdown?
I don't want you disappearing.
Hey, did you talk about it?
You're all still young, and can get a new job.
(Sugimoto Productions)
Um, excuse me a bit.
Good, right there.
A little stronger.
You idiot, that's too strong.
Hey, you guys.
Look, Dan. Freeze can generate electricity.
- See? - And me too.
Parihi.
Watch it, geez.
Actually, me too.
This can't be a coincidence.
This is the power to liberate the soul they talked about?
Then everyone there would have special powers,
and there'd be chaos.
Are you listening, Freeze?
Gosh.
So we're superhumans now.
Rainbow Knight and Earth-chan. I loved them as a kid.
Don't say we've become superhumans.
Why not?
Of course not.
There's the Functional Secrecy Law.
The newspaper or radio can't report about superhumans.
TV will never call us.
You're right.
But now that we're superhumans,
I feel like I can do something to bring meaning to my life.
Like if there's a bad guy...
Somebody help! Thieves!
Hey, Dee!
Can't be helped.
Wait, you guys.
Stop!
- Yeah. Dee! - Kill them.
What's wrong?
I can't move when I'm like this.
Give him a full round of bullets to his guts.
Ouch, it's starting to hurt.
Parihi.
Wait...
He's heavy...
It's my turn now.
See if you can handle the shock.
My shoulders are light.
My nerve pains are gone.
I feel warm all over.
Huh?
Why'd you heal them, idiot?
Excuse me a bit!
Gigander Seven!
Secret Detective Team BL!
Always getting in our way!
I'm sorry.
We couldn't help it. Our powers aren't much.
Superhumans aren't for us.
We're an embarrassment.
Let's go home.
They can be left alone.
Did you see that? This isn't a trick or a manga.
As you know, Angel Stars are real superhumans.
And they're girls, dressed like this.
Yes, we are officially authorized superhumans.
I thought superhumans fought unnoticed.
I didn't think Teito Publicity would promote superhumans.
The police and Public Security have authorized superhumans.
Once the Secrecy Law is amended, national projects will be started.
The Angel Stars' debut song.
"The Small Glass." Let's hear it!
(November, the 42nd of Shinka Era Sugimoto Productions)
We could've been Japan's first superhuman singers.
But we haven't been singing lately.
Not just that, we're a novelty band now.
What's wrong with that?
Kids love us. We just got a raise, too.
But can we just go on like this?
What do you mean?
Our songs aren't hits.
We just joke on stage, hit each other, and get laughed at.
We're making them laugh.
But we're not real comedians.
Just second rate.
Dee...
Hey.
I brought some coffee.
Something wrong?
Nothing, "Tarofuu."
How's work? It's tough, isn't it?
Not at all. It's great being with you guys.
Excuse me, President.
Not here, huh.
Sir, we're thinking about retiring.
An advance on our salary? 6 months worth?
You're too kind.
Excuse me a bit... Woah!
Ohnaga Confectionery is ready to increase production.
A drawing for a free life-sized poster of the Angel Stars.
This'll be a hit.
The goal is 1 million.
But what irony.
Young people who love the superhuman Stars
will lose their superhuman powers.
You mean Neynorine?
That's it.
The Superhuman Factor Suppression Drug, huh?
According to Bracks Medicines Co., it's completely harmless.
It's safe to put in chocolate.
Ever since that concert last year,
more youngsters are playing music and saying things like "love and peace."
And guys growing their hair out.
This experiment with Neynorine and would-be superhumans...
The government is curious too.
Do you dislike superhumans, Ms. Tozaki?
No.
I just think they should be managed according to the country's needs.
We can't have them multiplying.
Mr. Don.
A dog is speaking!
Fuurou...?
Us? Superhumans?
Our job is to protect superhumans.
You don't have to hide it.
You can infiltrate anything, right?
It was great how you went in that garbage can.
We heard rumors about Sugimoto Productions and sent Fuurouta.
Besides being Japan's greatest entertainment production,
they use mutants and evil scientists.
An evil organization.
That can't be.
We want to know their next step.
Help us as a superhuman.
If I did, we'd lose our jobs.
You want to keep playing stupid among evil?
Those stupid skits are our job.
Excuse me.
I think we should do it.
Do what?
The chocolates at Ohnaga Confectionery.
We can't let young fans eat harmful drugs.
The publicist said it was harmless.
We can't let them use innocent people as lab rats for some drug.
Let alone, preventing superhumans.
Dee.
We can't stay second rate forever.
Let's be accepted as superhumans.
We could be heroes that saved the youngsters.
What's wrong with second rate? Is it meaningless?
Is everyone in show-biz first rate?
Are they all superstars?
If not, you can't sing or do comedy?
You're probably too young to remember.
Before the war, superhumans were always in the papers and magazines.
But that changed with the new law.
Superhumans could be weapons of war.
So they became military secrets.
But that was before.
You might be right, but I remember it.
So superhumans aren't okay.
It's not funny.
What do you mean?
I like it when the audience laughs.
Laughter is the key to longevity.
We can be second or third rate. We can sing or do skits.
That's what I want to do.
Even if we became superhumans, we'd be second rate superhumans.
Would that be funny?
The Osaka Earth Exposition in 3 years.
All the publicity for it will be done by Imperial Publicity.
This is the theme song for it.
You could sell a million, no 10 million.
Will you guys sing it?
Incredible.
Why us?
That's because...
Laughter is universal.
I doubt it's a job for someone like us.
Isn't it okay if you're satisfied?
You'll be first rate musicians without doubt.
What was that for, Don?
Why did you send her away?
You're going to decline, aren't you?
It's not funny.
But it's 10 million copies!
She found out about the chocolate and came to silence us.
But you don't plan on being a superhuman, right?
That's right.
Until now.
But just this once.
If we don't stand up now, we'd be lower than third rate!
(Ohnaga Confectionery)
Excuse me a bit.
This feels weird.
Let's go.
All right.
With all this, we won't go hungry for a while.
- Want a bite? - Shut up.
What is it?
It's moving!
It's getting more like an evil organization.
Let's do this, superhumans!
You distract it. I'll...
No way.
We shouldn't have done this.
You guys!
Don't hide. Don't push!
- You mean... - Like this?
No!
Excuse me a bit!
Great! Now that I'm inside...
Hal, do your Parihi.
Parihi.
Weren't you going to break it?
I didn't have a chance.
It's getting faster.
What's he doing there?
Pull, Hal!
All right, got it.
Parihi.
Yes! We're like real superhumans.
Oh dear.
The novelty band Mountain Horses was a facade.
But they were actually evil destructive superhumans.
We just want you and your company to reconsider.
One, two, three.
Hurry, run.
Dee, you too!
Hal, pull me from afar.
Got it.
I'll pull you.
Pa...
...rihi.
If you wouldn't have been so stupid.
Do it, Freeze!
Really? Okay.
Shock, shock.
You won't make it in time for the drawing now.
Shouldn't you hurry on home and remake your ads?
Stars!
Superhuman Bureau, Jiro Hitoyoshi.
You're from the GaGon case...
We'll take it from here.
It's fine. I'm used to negotiations.
Tell the president.
We quit the production today.
And?
Promise not to get in our way no matter what stage we go on.
You're not disbanding?
You can't even get on TV without us backing you.
Lose those dreams.
It's not like dreaming would kill you.
And quit mixing in weird stuff.
Then we won't go show this to anyone.
Thanks.
Hey, where's Dee?
Oh yeah, our salary advances.
We'll call it even as Dee's funeral gift.
Mr. Don!
Come with us as a superhuman.
That's not funny.
Looking for a superhuman ally, right?
Yeah, to defeat you guys.
So, what did Mr. Don and them say?
They're not superhumans nor interested in being one.
Stop it!
Geez, Freeze!
A pity.
They could've been great superhumans with those powers.
Don't you get it? They are superhumans.
Look how many are laughing.
That's the greatest power of them all.
Fuurouta.
Did you want to be with them instead?
I'll stay till the end.
I only have one life.
Parihi.
Hey!
This is Human Satellite Earth.
I caught your radio waves asking for help.
If you truly desire help, I'll come.
But, why don't you understand, idiot?!
