Alright...
What exactly has he done?!
That's going overboard! What's the point of having a state of the art train if he dismantles it?!
Well, I kind of prefer the retro look...
Rrgh!
It's fine!
And fun.
How, exactly?! I'm calling him over here to give him a piece of my mind!
Get over here!
- Wait a minute!
I guess Ticket's the only one who doesn't get along with Akira.
I wonder if we can help?
What's the big deal? No reason to force them to get along.
You've got a point.
Akira is one of those intimidating-hot types!
Maybe if he smiled more he'd be easier to approach!
When someone who hardly ever smiles actually does, it's a pretty intense impact!
I don't think that's possible. We've never seen him smile.
That's true...
Why not try and get him to laugh, then?
I appreciate you calling upon me, the mighty Jack-in-the-Box Shadow.
I am impressed—
- Save the formal greeting.
Just head out and just cause whatever damage you will.
However I want? I always try to be professional, milady!
Where I stand... it will transform into a hellscape!
Is something amiss?
Miss Grita!
Indeed...
a hellscape of laughter!
Jack-in-the-Box Shadow... how could you be so foolish?
You two are better than I could've hoped for...
I'll play along with your little farce for now.
Especially since it's made Grita shine even brighter.

Station 20
Dangerous Laughter
Station 20
Go on!
ToQ #1!
ToQ #2!
ToQ #3!
ToQ #4!
ToQ #5!
The Conductor now transferring to a mantis!
Scythe scythe scythe scythe!
My boyfriend! I love you!
- Hey, I gotcha something!
I love you!
...What kind of emergency is this?
Okay, that didn't work.
Man, talk about embarrassing...
I told you we shouldn't!
Kagura, you can stop now!
Scythe scythe scythe scythe!
Conductor, give it a rest!
Sorry about that.
Sorry, Akira...
Well...
We were talking about how we've never seen you smile before, so...
I've no right to smile.
If I ever smile...
it'll be when I've protected the rainbows...
and died in the act.
It seems the next station has been taken by the Shadows!
We'll be pulling out immediately!
Hilarity Station
Hilarity Station...
It's a weird name... but not particularly Shadowy.
Maybe it's a mistake?
What was that?!
That was a pathetic pratfall.
Jack-in-the-Box Shadow...
That's one long name.
Hello there, Zaram.
And the ToQGers!
I see you've already had a taste of my hell...
Hell?
If you laugh, you're knocked into the air.
He uses that power to keep people from laughing.
But he's not really that funny, so it's not a big deal.
Hey now, talk about harsh!
Crows!
He just surprised us that first time!
We're not gonna laugh again.
Now transforming.
Please remain behind the white line while waiting.
ToQ Change!
Imagining Victory!
Express Sentai,
ToQGer!
All aboard!
Alright...
Hey, quit chasing me!
That was a close one...
I see you withstood that one.
But my hell is just beginning to unfold!
What's going on? It's so weird that it's scary!
Come on, stop that!
What are you talking about?!
How's he doing this?
All too easy...
If this is enough to blow you away, then you'll never—
Zaram! You didn't find that funny?!
I'll laugh the day I die.
Time to pull out for now!
I mean, seriously...
Are we just too easily amused?
I don't think we stand a chance if we run into that monster again.
It's so frustrating!
- Right.
You'll have to train!
If you clear your mind, even the best jokes will have no effect!
That means you'll need to get used to it!
Good point. Maybe not laughing like Akira would be the best defense...
No.
Defense is boring.
We'll attack!
We're gonna get that monster...
And while we're at it, we'll make Akira laugh!
Time to train!
It's not here...
Where did I drop it?
Something wrong?
Oh, my! What is this?!
Phase 1: Basic Endurance Training
No breaks, come on now!
When I say breaks I mean you keep going and don't stop!
You serious?
Keep your lips zipped!
Shut your trap, and keep going!
Intense...
Phase 2: Pratfalls
A-one, a-two, a-three!
Fall!
A-one, a-two, a-three!
Fall!
Sweetie, you need to get into the rhythm! Do it more gracefully, yes?
...Okay.
Hey, you two!
Take this seriously! Or I'll step on you!
Phase 3: Punchline

No, boy, boxing is like this...
Stop! Ow!
Phase 4: Practice
Short Sketches Sketch #1, #4, #5 on a Train
If I can just check your ticket...
Heading to work?
Yeah, a little business trip.
I see. Well, good luck.
Thank you for riding with us.
Next stop... third floor, housewares.
This is an elevator?!
Manzai-Style Standup with Rainbow Tokatti & Mio
Alright!
Well, maybe if I have the time, I might just hop on the train...
Get shaken around for a few hours, stop by a nice hot spring with a good view,
and grab some of the best local food, that'd be plenty for the day.
That's what they call a trip!
Oh, my glasses popped off!
Wow... must be rough.
Is he gonna be okay?
This is all... part of the trials...
Show Your Stuff!
So intense...
That should do. I have nothing more to teach you.
Go forth, and make them laugh!
Being completely unable to control their laughter...
humans are such fragile creatures.
Hold it!
ToQGers, what's the matter?
You haven't laughed yet but you're already beat up.
We've cast laughing aside...
In order to make other people laugh instead!
What?
You seriously think you can make me laugh?
Exactly.
We'll blow you away!
Yeah, you!
Interesting...
Then, you can at least manage something like this, right?
One, two!
I'm gonna start a revolution... in your heart!
Oh no! We're lost in the mountains!
There's no saving us now! We might as well go to sleep!
Hey! You can't! It's a terrible idea to sleep in the cold!
Maybe there's gas for the car! Maybe dere's gas car! May 'de gas car!
Madagascar!
Oh yes!
You know, this Madagascar!
That was close!
Kind of a surprise attack...
But we're safe! Safe!
What're you yapping about?!
Fair enough...
But what do you all have to show?
Don't blame us when your sides are completely destroyed!
Let's do it!
Now transforming.
ToQ Change!
Imagining Victory!
Express Sentai,
ToQGer!
...The way you usually do it is funnier.
Augh, we did it!
Nooo!
Why?!
I was so sure it'd work!
This is seeming dumber and dumber.
What's that?
What is it?
What is that sound?
Akira...
This must be it...
The place where I'll die.
N-no—!
Z-Zaram, you worm—!
What? What's wrong with you guys?
Don't "what" us?!
Why do you have a recorder?!
I lost my harmonica.
...And that's why—?
You could've shown up without a musical instrument...
Zaram—! You're better than I thought!
We trained so hard—!
Aw, come on. Akira's just too good.
I have no idea what you're on about, but let's do this.
ToQ Change.
Now transforming.
Please remain behind the white line while waiting.
ToQ #6!
...What were we thinking? We could've just fought normally this entire time.
You're right!
Let's get in there!
Yeah.
Right... you okay?
Hang in there!
You can use this.
ToQ #1 Red now depressing into White.
ToQ #5 now transferring to Red.
ToQ #4 now transferring to Red.
ToQ #3 now transferring to Red.
Toccatch!
ToQ #2 now transferring to Red.
Here you go, Right.
A Crow, huh?
Cutting through!
Zaram! I can beat the likes of you myself!
Is that all you've got?
Bring it.
Alright, alright!
Come, Build Express!
The train is now arriving.
Build Express!
I think I'm gonna go with Grandpa today.
I wanna see him.
Right! Don't get so depressed just because your jokes bombed!
Well, he usually never loses...
We need to get going, too.
The train is now arriving.
Express Coupling!
Since the robots can't laugh, they should be fine!
I just want this battle to play out normally.
All aboard ToQ-Oh!
Let's get him, Grandpa!
Express Coupling!
All aboard Diesel-Oh!
Express Coupling!
Hey, Akira... what's wrong?
Did... did he just get the joke now?!
I don't like getting laughs when I haven't done anything to elicit them!
Go, Darkliners!
Here we go.
Cou-pled!
The Darkliner is coming through!
S-sorry about the hold uphahahaha!
Okay...
He's still cracking up...
Akira! You okay?!
Give it a rest, already!
Alright!
Let's get him, Grandpa!
I can see your last stop!
Whoa, you first!
Build Dai-Oh Bucket Break!
Exit stage right!
We did it!
Alright!
Okay, stop! Come on out!
A cat?!
Where'd he come from?!
Mreowr?
I'm taking care of him.
My mom says I can't keep him...
She said to get rid of him...
So cute!
So he was laughing because the kitten was tickling him...
I don't think that's all it was.
You hungry?
How about it?
You like cats, huh?
Such a cutie!
- Hey, mister!
My mom says I can keep him after all!
Thank you for looking after him.
Oh, and...
Here!
You were looking for it, right? I found it.
...Yeah.
Bye! Thanks again!
He's like a different person.
I'm getting back to work.
Okay!
See you around!
Now, the preparations are complete...
Grita, once you're the Emperor's wife—!
Madame Noire... this obsession over their marriage...
There must be some ulterior motive.
Next Station
Next time...
The Shadow Line's Emperor is getting married?!
Right and Tokatti swap bodies?!
I'm over there!
What?! Mio and Grita too?!
Give me my body back!
Now, General Schwarz and I can—!
N-no, no!
Station 21 Runaway Bride
Take Grita and escape!
Be sure not to miss your train.
