Extermination Area Do Not Enter
Vermin confirmed.
Commencing hunt.
Awakening
Alright, get going!
Okay...
Ouch, ouch, ouch...!
Downstairs!
Got it.
Damn it, where are you going?!
Have some more!
Tough luck, critter!
Nozomi!
Get him!
Extermination complete. Notify the cleanup crew.
We're heading out...
ID Code S-203 exterminated.
Mamoru...
Try not to rip your uniform every time.
Nine guests at the hotel, and one turns out to be a vermin...
They don't grow on trees, you know.
I mean, one of the experiments.
Had himself a little buffet with the other guests.
That's a rather unpleasant way of putting it.
Well, it's the truth.
The cleaners can deal with the leftovers.
We've arranged for Public Safety to treat these incidents as disappearances,
as long as no remains are left behind.
Make sure they're taken care of, understood?
That's the eighth subject eliminated this year.
Considering there were only two last year...
The estimation of two years after the incident seems to have been accurate.
It's only just beginning...
The awakening of the Amazons.
Do you think I did a good job?
Don't worry, there's no rules what it should look like.
But...
Aquariums are like a world to themselves.
Just imagine what you'd like to see in your town, or in nature.
Make it a little world of your own.
My own world?
And when you look at it like this, it feels like you're a part of that world.
It's very calming.
I've been thinking...
Do you ever want to leave, Haruka?
My mother is so strict with you...
I know you're not in the best health...
But keeping you locked inside is too much.
Not at all, I'm really grateful to your mother for letting me stay here.
And it's not so bad, staying here all the time.
- Really? - Yeah.
This room is kind of like my own aquarium...
- What are you doing here, Mizuki?! - Mother, I —
- Welcome home. - Get changed. Now!
Don't forget, Haruka, the medical examiners are coming by for your scheduled tests.
But they just ran tests last month...
There's nothing wrong with being thorough.
But how long do they have to—
What about your medicine?
Have you been taking it every day?
Yes...
I really don't like the way it makes me feel...
It doesn't matter if you like it or not!
I can't stand this...
Every time I take it, I...
This is surveillance. We've confirmed ID on a target.
Two this time?
Too hungover to handle it?
Hey, Mamoru!
Come on, wake up!
He's out cold.
Ryuusuke...
You alright?
Yeah, probably just drank too much.
One of them is the same type as yesterday.
But it's rank B this time.
The other one is the real problem, though...
ID Code B-008.
Rank A...
Alright then...
Never taken down an A before... Wonder how much it's worth.
Plenty of good drinking for us...
The more valuable it is, the harder it's gonna be to kill.
- Everyone stay sharp. - It's here... It's close...
Ootaki...!
Go!
That's the rank A!
Fire!
Fuku!
Why did I come here...?!
Fuku!
Ryuusuke, get back!
Ryuusuke...
It's gone sideways... This doesn't look good.
What are you doing?! It's dangerous here!
ALPHA
Amazon...
What the hell...?
Guess this is goodbye.
N-No...!
Another Amazon...?
What the hell... Where are they all coming from?
Damn it, what the hell is this? An Amazon convention?
Don't tell me...
You haven't eaten yet?
You won't last long like that.
Don't move!
Are you subjects from the experiment?
Ootaki!
You're an Amazon too...?
Mamoru!
Wait!
Ryuusuke!
We still have a while before he is fully awakened...
But...
There is no putting it back into hibernation now...
Do you remember how you got here?
W-Why... Why did I do that...
Because you're an Amazon, obviously.
A-Amazon...?
Amazon cells?
That's what they named them.
Structurally speaking, they're an artificial lifeform about the size of a virus created by our company.
They're not particularly complex. They subside on proteins...
Particularly human cells, which they seek out on a base level.
Did you say...
Yes.
You could say they're a kind of flesh-eating cell.
The humanoid forms you have seen are the experiments known as Amazons.
In your own words, the vermin.
There was an accident at the laboratory, two years ago.
As a result, a number of experimental subjects were set loose in the city.
Listen...
There are these things called Amazon cells that feed on human cells, right?
We've got them inside us.
You ever get this urge to eat somebody, before?
W-What...?! Of course not!
Oh, really...
Then I guess you've got it under control.
No armlet though...
You been taking medicine?
Medicine...
The injections...!
Now it makes sense.
Wow, you are an honest kid...
That armlet acts like your injections.
It gives you medication automatically.
When it runs out, you turn into an Amazon and hunt for food.
Food...?
People to eat.
The armlets remain effective for two years.
In other words, the armlets have expired.
The subjects are starting to reawaken, and they are seeking out humans to feed on.
How many are we talking?
Approximately 4000.
Not everyone responds the same once treatment fails.
Meaning all 4000 won't become active at the same time, thankfully.
And Ryuusuke's time was up, is that it?
Most likely.
Ootaki Ryuusuke
Ryuusuke...
Shido!
Ryuusuke?!
Listen, I'm sorry...
I'm one of them... One of the Amazons...
I know, it's fine! Don't worry about that!
Are you okay?
Tell me where you are!
Jin!
They found another one of the experiments?
Hey kid, you wanna come along?
To hunt an Amazon?
I forgot to mention something important. I'm in this to wipe out every last Amazon.
Which, of course, includes you.
Wipe out...?
Kill them.
But y'know...
You haven't eaten anybody yet, so...
I'll hold off on you, if you give me a hand.
Help you...?
- You mean go after them and— - Exactly.
Kill each and every single one of them.
If you don't like it, you can be next.
Never hurting anyone...
Never getting your hands dirty...
It seems like a nice way to live...
But in the end, it doesn't amount to anything.
What's wrong, Fuku?
Are we...
Are we going to exterminate Ootaki...?
This whole time...
The vermin...
I thought they were just monsters...
But Ootaki...
He's not a monster...
Just drive, god damn it!
If someday...
...I'm going to eat another person...
...then I'm better off dead.
God damn it...
It's kind of like...
You and Jin are both Amazons, but you're totally different.
If Jin's a wild animal, then you're more like...
...a pet.
I mean, you don't even get your own food, do you?
I'm with Jin because I feel for what he's going through.
But there's nothing wrong with a nice, quiet life.
I've got nothing against it...
But if you keep this up, you'll be dead in no time.
Here, this is the same as Jin's. You can keep it, we have two.
It'll make you stronger.
I can't hold on any longer...
Hurry...
Guys...
I'm so hungry...
Your uniform is a mess, exterminator.
I'm...
Hungry...
Oh, yeah?
ALPHA
Amazon.
That Amazon again...
Ignore him unless he advances on us.
Everyone lock and load.
Ryuusuke...
We're here to hunt vermin!
Never hurting anyone...
Never getting your hands dirty...
It seems like a nice way to live...
But in the end, it doesn't amount to anything.
- Jun! - Jun, no!
Ootaki!
AMAZON!
OMEGA
Mamoru!
Another new Amazon...?
VIOLENT PUNISH
Would you look at that...
Let's do this.
Here's a present for you!
Mamo!
Maehara... He's dead!
Maehara!
I...
Maehara!
Maehara...
Hold it!
I see...
So he bared his teeth at you.
And you helped him do it, didn't you?
Huh?
The belt...
He had my spare.
Using one of these, you can turn the body of an Amazon into a weapon of precision.
Yeah, that's why I gave it to him.
Come on...
Whose side are you on, here?
Good morning, my esteemed board of directors.
Target ID code confirmed.
I'll transmit the data.
Roger that.
A-010, rank B.
The experiments are becoming more active this year.
Matters have proven more involved than our original estimate.
As a counter measure...
I propose new surveillance equipment and weapons, as well as increasing the size of the team.
Part of this is already underway.
It's not as if we have infinite resources.
The extermination team must come under scrutiny.
They've already lost two , I don't see how—
That was our fault.
One of them turned out to be an experiment.
- How could you be so careless?! - That only goes to show...
...how sophisticated their ability to hide among humans has become.
Perhaps one of them is sitting among us in this very board room...
Hold it! Stop right there!
What are you doing?! Who even are you?!
Stop!
What is all this?!
I'm sorry, sir! He says he wants to see Director Mizusawa!
Get him out of here!
Right...!
That's impossible, I'm afraid.
This young man is an Amazon.
An Amazon...?!
You should be careful, he might eat you.
I'm sorry...
But I have to ask you something.
What am I?
Call the exterminators!
No need. He is not a threat.
How isn't he a threat?!
He could lose control and attack us!
Hello there...
We just wanted to let you know we're doing pest control in the building...
Just let me get the door...
You seem to be aware that you are an Amazon.
He said I have Amazon cells inside of me...
Artificial, flesh-eating cells!
She's vermin! Mamoru!
I was being kept there.
But all along...
I could feel something inside of me trying to get out...
That was the Amazon.
Get her!
They're not human, are they?!
So then what am I?
A man-eating monster?
Mom, please! Just tell me!
His mother...?!
What is the meaning of this, Mizusawa?! Who is this Amazon?!
Mom!
Director Mizusawa.
The exterminators are currently dealing with a target.
Everyone, please remain calm.
This is one of the new Amazons being added to the extermination team.
Haruka...
I understand your concerns.
Are the Amazons still human?
You have a right to ask.
But you must see for yourself.
Your job will be eliminating test subjects.
Take this and rendezvous with them.
Mamoru!
Is he helping us?
Huh...?
She's gone....
This is Shido.
We're detecting new targets.
Where?
Multiple pings, all in that same building.
No wait, now there are more!
What the hell?
This building...
It's infested with Amazons.
So it's like a colony of ants...
Let me see if they can extract us.
Fine, just try to get an answer while we're still alive.
Everyone check your gear.
Here.
Not hungry?
Or do we look more appetizing?
Come on.
Here.
Kid...
I assume you're one of the Amazons on our side?
This is the extermination team, right?
I was told to join you...
Told by who?
My mom...
I mean Director Mizusawa...
So he's the replacement?
Hurry, put up a wire! The rest of you come help me!
Hey...
What's your name?
Mizusawa Haruka.
Mizusawa...
We're teammates now.
I'm sending anti-Amazon gas to your location.
Use it to eliminate the entire colony of escaped subjects.
It would have been nice to have that earlier...
Disposal has the building locked down.
But I don't think we can make it to your location on our own...
We're on the way, don't move.
Copy that.
Let's clear a path!
How the hell are we supposed to do that?!
Mamoru and the new guy are down until they eat!
We'll blow open a path.
Kazuya, toss some ammo.
Even if this works, we'll only have a second to move.
We'll need to do it fast!
We rendezvous with surveillance, get the gear, and finish this!
Fuku!
Move!
Move it!
Shido!
Give me the batteries and the gas! Where's the food?
Here!
Katou!
They got your friend!
We'll split up here!
Go!
This way, Mamoru!
Go!
Nozomi!
Hey, where do we put this stuff?
Right there, by the water tank!
Has he always been this weak?!
- Asami! - Coming!
What are you doing?
I came here to find out...
...if I'm still human or not.
Even if I'm an Amazon, I'm still human.
It's the same with you, isn't it?
Come on!
Human, huh?
If you really were human, would you have to ask?
It's not much, but eat up.
OMEGA
Amazon!
I see...
So that's how a human fights, huh?
Unfortunately kid, it's not that noble in the end...
You're an Amazon.
ALPHA
Amazon.
And staying alive means preying on someone else's life!
You prey on others to live...
That reality never changes. And it's the same for everyone here.
VIOLENT BREAK
What the hell?
Human or not, it doesn't even matter anymore!
Everybody get your masks on!
God damn it...!
Fuku, do it!
Look!
They did it?
No, it's okay...
Now, my board of directors,
all of whom were too scared to even watch this carnage from a distance...
Do you finally understand the gravity of the situation?
Remember...
There are 4000 more of the Amazons you just witnessed loose in this city.
Hey, that's mine!
I just put some in there!
This is my piggy bank!
See?
Sorry about that, I didn't know.
When did you start saving, Mamoru?
A little while ago.
Ever since we talked about how much we all needed money, Mamo's been saving up.
Yeah, but all he's got here are 5-Yen coins!
- Seriously? - It's true!
Really?
Haruka...
This is surveillance.
Lately, a large number of subjects have been awakening in the same location.
Far too many to dismiss as coincidence.
We advise that you gather intel on it.
What's up?
They're all vermin...
If your accompaniment would follow me, please...
Right this way.
Let's start by sealing it off.
Mamoru, get ready to move in.
Since you were brought in fresh...
...I should prepare you right away.
It's your first time, I'm sure you're nervous. But it will be fine.
As long as this is all we eat, our other side will stay dormant.
We hope that eating a little bit at a time will delay the metamorphosis.
What?!
You don't want to awaken...?
Shido!
Don't move!
Don't kill them if they comply, take them in!
Owner!
Get out of here!
Owner!
Owner, stop this!
C'mon, move it!
If you want to stay free, then run.
But—!
Come on.
Get going.
Owner, I'm so sorry!
Hurry, this way!
Watch out, he's about to awaken!
Hold it!
Move.
Move, they're vermin!
We're about to deploy a chemical agent.
Tell Haruka and M to put masks on.
Watch out!
It has been refined to have no harmful effects on humans.
In exchange, the lethality drops to about 80 or 90%, but that should be sufficient.
Why?!
They weren't awakened!
They weren't resisting...
But they were eating people.
Eating people who were murdered.
But they were living their lives...
We've prepared enough of the substance to disperse across the entire town.
Along with 50 drones on standby, ready to distribute it.
The chemical requires large amounts of water to be effective...
So we'll use rain.
Rain...?
We will make our move on the next day it rains.
We're calling it...
Operation Tlaloc.
However...
I will not activate Tlaloc if Haruka is still in town.
Because there is a likelihood that the gas will kill him.
Are you serious...?
You'd piss away the chance to kill thousands of monsters to save one kid?
That is exactly why I want to ensure it is not an issue!
We can use the Armlet to give him a boosted dose of suppressant, and bring him here.
And the only one who can make him take it is—
Forget it.
Yes, Exterminators here.
We picked up an ID code.
Looks like it's underground...
We split up and surround it.
- Copy that. - Copy.
What is this about?
It's about Tlaloc.
You're the one holding the keys, right?
The weather's gonna be perfect, today!
I will launch when the time is right. Please leave.
Damn it...
Is Haruka really that important to you?
He's a third type of Amazon, right?
Correct.
Fundamentally different from the others.
Guess I have no choice...
I've been copying the lab's files on the Amazons.
One tap and it's all over the internet.
It wasn't that hard. I mean, I used to work here after all...
Now, Tlaloc...
Let's get cracking, Ms. Director.
You're...!
You survived!
Somehow... I was the only one...
Thank goodness.
Haruka?
Are they vermin?
No, they're not.
Vermin confirmed.
Haruka, Mamoru...
You need to get out of here.
But...
Hurry!
That exit should be clear!
Amazon!
OMEGA
Where did Haruka go...?
Haruka!
Haruka?
Are you okay?
I'm sorry, just go!
I can't... I can't go with you.
Let's go.
This is surveillance. We have more ID codes.
They're all Rank E, but they're concentrated around your location.
Seriously?
Shido here!
This is Mizusawa.
As of right now, Tlaloc has been activated.
With no warning?!
We have no time for explanations.
Get Haruka and M to safety.
Haruka!
Hey!
Where are you going?! After him, Nozomi!
Kazuya, take Mamoru to Fuku and get out of town!
Got it! C'mon, Mamo! we gotta go!
C'mon Mamo, let's go!
Misaki...
Misaki!
What is it, Mamo?
It wasn't easy, creating you...
I'm doing this...
...because I care.
That's the truth.
The thing is...
We humans...
We weren't ready to let you beat us on the food chain.
There was no room for you.
I'm sorry.
So, at the very least...
I can personally escort you to hell.
Haruka!
Mizuki, why are you here?
Haruka, take this!
Enough, Haruka! Move out!
The gas is coming!
Misaki!
Just a snack, Misaki... Just a snack...
Mamoru...
Mamoru, stop!
Stop!
Mamoru!
Mamo...
Don't shoot!
Mamo!
Mamo...
Misaki...?
What did I do...?
Mamoru!
Hey, Misaki...!
Shido!
No...! Mamoru turned?!
Where's he headed?!
Haruka...
Please run! Take this!
Mizuki...
You were always there for me, even after I became an Amazon.
Thank you.
I'm going to stop Mamoru.
Haruka, wait!
Haruka, wait...!
Wait!
Keep it coming!
Mamoru!
Hurry, you have to run!
Mamoru, you have to get out of here!
I ate him...
I ate Misaki!
Mamoru...
He tasted so good...
It's alright...
What did I do to the team...?
What did I do?!
You have to get up, Mamoru.
You haven't awakened yet!
But if I see him...
What if I see him and I still want to eat him?!
That's alright! It's alright to feel like that!
That's your instinct as an Amazon, right?!
I don't think wanting to eat people is inherently evil!
I don't see why Amazons deserve to die over it!
Because being alive...
...means eating something else to live!
But I don't want to eat another person!
No matter what...
Maybe...
Maybe we can find a way to live without having to.
But right now, it's more important for you to survive!
Come on, let's go!
Hurry!
Come on!
Haruka!
I don't understand what you're saying!
It's okay to eat people...?! That can't be right!
Of course it doesn't sound right to you, you're human!
But I'm—
An Amazon?!
I understand what that means!
And I know that you can't stay with us, because you're an Amazon...
Thank you.
But you were wrong...
This is how I'm supposed to live... by fighting.
Mamoru?!
Haruka?!
Damn it...
Tlaloc is complete.
And Haruka...?
No contact.
None expected.
I want to congratulate you on Tlaloc's success.
Now, then...
How has the situation evolved in the past three weeks?
Yes, well...
We have retrieved around 3,000 armbands.
Based on our previous data, we assume that two-thirds of them were eliminated.
Magnificent!
Which means there are only...
About a thousand of them left!
There are likely to be remaining armbands that we haven't found.
So there may be fewer survivors.
No...
We must assume that they survived, that is the prudent course of action.
Biodiversity is far more interesting, anyway.
So, was the Amazon you created among the dead, Mizusawa?
We aren't sure...
Then find him!
Along with any remaining survivors.
These targets are all Tlaloc survivors.
Chemical weapons have no effect on them, don't expect any additional support.
And if you run into Haruka...
Please bring him in.
A personal request from the Director.
Here we go.
18 new vermin detected.
We're surrounded.
You gotta be fucking kidding me...
Bring it on!
Damn it!
Haruka...!
Haruka...
Sorry for not keeping in touch.
What happened?
Come back with us, for now. Director's orders.
I can't do that.
Why?
They're all survivors...?
Wait!
They haven't awakened yet!
They're vermin, kid!
Yes, and so am I.
It's him...
Haruka!
Now then, how many am I gonna get today?
You never give up...
Well, I need to kill all of you, or I can't die in peace.
And I can't live in peace, not until you stop hunting them!
You sound so determined now...
That's a vermin...
What's wrong with eating what I kill?
AMAZON!
Leave them alone!
Mamo, you're alive!
Everybody...
Damn you all...!
What are you doing?!
He's vermin!
Maybe, but I couldn't care less!
Leave him alone!
Get out of my way!
All of you!
Die...
I'll keep coming back!
Until I kill every last one of you!
To protect humanity...
Are you okay?
Mamoru!
Come on back, Mamo!
I'm alright, see?!
Come back to us...
Just come back, alright...?
Don't forget, we're still here if you need us!
Huh, I thought you went on vacation...
I knew you wanted me here...
You really do know everything, Nanaha...
You jerk...
You're so hard-headed...
Mizusawa...
When you said this boy was a third type of Amazon...
Takayama Jin is the result of implanting Amazon cells in a human.
Haruka is the result of genetically engineering Amazon cells to include human DNA.
He's not a collection of artificial cells.
Nor is he a human being...
He is a greater being. A new evolution of humanity.
And the source of the human DNA, that was...?
It was mine.
He is my son.
AMAZON!
Who are you?! The you within yourself
Show your true self! The one you've kept in the shadows
Derived from the natural struggle
A quivering body torn to ribbons of red
But where is your soul?! Search all you want for that pain, but you can't get at it
Your heart starts to race
And then it's all over! Hey hey!
We live in Armour Zone!
Feel the wind as you run, let your voice grow strained
In this city where beasts are free to bare their teeth
This is a fate of eat or be eaten, oh yeah!
The taste of tragedy clings in your throat, as you claw away with a nasty edge
Who will you have to eat to survive?
Betray all races...
How do we survive?!
Drowning fish in the aquarium of nightmares
Between life and death, the answer is clouded
The impulse to leave one's self
And fly! Hey hey!
We live in Armour Zone!
Tear away your pride, remove all your restraints
The truth is certainly still a lie
Forget the hollow words and finish it, oh yeah!
Look at the blink of the naked eye Lurking in the blind spot is darkness and judgement!
What will you abandon to survive?
No gate! Nevertheless...
Feel the wind as you run, let your voice grow strained
In this city where beasts are free to bare their teeth
This is a fate of eat or be eaten, oh yeah!
The taste of tragedy clings in your throat, as you claw away with a nasty edge
Who will you have to eat to survive?
Betray all races...
How do we survive?!
We've discovered new cells in these Amazons...
We call them lysogenic cells.
They're able to spread to human beings.
I made them!
I have to be the one to kill them!
Amazon.
Iyu...
Maybe, if I can feel pain for you...
...then you can help me keep my humanity.
Haruka.
Are you here to kill me?
Mamoru, stop turning people into Amazons!
So we can wage war...
...on the humans.
Fire!
Kazuya!
So... other people ended up paying the price.
And they paid a hell of a lot.
-Amazon. -Amazon! -Amazon!
