Come on! Huh?!
I'm sorry!
I'm so sorry!
Are you messing with us?!
Good evening, Sir!
Boss.
He's one from the Ryudo group.
In the first place,
it's because you're damn soft on my orders
that everyone's looking down on us, the Otaki group!
Right?!
Wrap this up!
Yes, Sir!
I'm gonna croak!
My heart went clang!
Like bam!
Bam, then boom, then bang!
Do you like octopus?
Yes, Sir!
Then you must have no joints.
Humans have 260 joints, you know.
Count them up.
Yes, Sir!
2...
2!
3!
4... 5... 6...
Anyway, who are you?
I-I came from Smile Agency!
I-I'm Kanako Nishino!
Are you a hitman?
Y-Yes!
I'll kill with everything I've got!
Kid, do you know K?
K, you say...?
The subway hit awhile back,
there is a rumor among us that it was K who did it.
No matter the situation...
Bang!
He can kill anyone.
A top-notch hitman.
That's Kanako, right?
Maybe the reason he is called "K"
is because...
it is the first letter of "Killer" or something?
Boss, no. That's Kanako's "K."
So this K...
Is he employed at your firm?
Well, who knows?
I have no clue.
Hey!
Excuse me.
If you'll ask K to do it,
then I'll pay double.
Tell that to your boss.
Wow!
Happy Kanako's Killer Life
Episode 3
Graffiti on the wall is graffiti of the heart!
I-I-It was me who did it!
Hitman K is amazing
"Assassin K and 30 Billion Yen Lover"?!
So it's a manga.
It's messing my search!
Hitman K is cute
Cute...
Could be my name?
Assassin K's true identity Kanako Nishino
Sorry, there are no results for "Assassin K's true identity Kanako Nishino"
No results!
Ah! Instagram?
Why you!
Uh, can I ask something?
Do you know K?
K?
You know, the one people are talking about lately.
I don't know!
It was in the news recently.
Haven't you heard the guy who was killed on the train?
No!
Seriously, I don't know anything!
What...?
Hi-?
"Hi-"?
-t-?
Hm? "-t-"?
...ni...
- Then forget it. -Wait, wait, wait!
Hold on! Hold on! Hey!
What?!
It's better I should know?!
Ah, no, no...
Ah! Aah!
Ah, I've heard!
I've heard! I know! I know! I know!
You mean this, right?
H-H-H-Hit-... Hit-...
-li-, -li-, -li-...
-ma-...
-ma-, -ma-, -ma-...
-m... -m...
-n! -n! -n! -n!
-n! -n!
K-K-K...
- Hitman K! - Hitman K!
That's it!
Yes! Yes! Ugh...
Have you heard any rumors of them?
Rumors?
No idea!
Really?
Wait, wait, wait, wait!
Hold on! Hold on!
I've heard one! I've heard one!
I know really! Um, well...
You know, heard that...
Heard that...
Heard they're amazing!
Really?!
In what way?
What way?
What way are they amazing?
Um, um, uh...
They have... incredible skills.
Ah!
Um... uh...
They are really... um...
...cool?
Ah!
Uh...
It's K, right? They're a hitman after all!
Scary?
What? Scary?
- Forget it. - No! No! No!
I messed up! I messed up! I was wrong!
That's someone else!
It's a different person!
I know! I know! Ahhh!
Ah, yeah, yeah, that's it...
Uh, uh, um...
Well then... No, no! Um, uh...
Cute?
What?!
That's the rumor about them?!
Oh man! That's embarrassing!
Yeah...!
To top it off, heard they are super cute!
Like they are as cute as Sayaka Isoyama!
Don't know her.
It's fine! You don't need to know her!
Anyway, heard that they're unbelievably cute!
That Hitman K!
You know...
Actually...
Actually...?
K is... me!
Rea...
I'll kill you!
Mmm, so good!
Thanks for bringing me along!
Of course! It's hard to come alone to a place like this.
Is this french based?
I don't think so.
Did something good happen?
Huh? Why do you ask?
You seem more lively than last time.
Really?
But actually, I kinda got some recognition from work.
That's great!
What did you do?
The subway job I did before got a good reputation.
That's great!
It's nothing like that!
But a client said that if I was assigned for the job, they would pay double!
Double?! Wow!
The company must be happy since you transferred there.
No! No way!
I'll take a picture.
Hey, stop that!
Sorry.
Hello?
Is this by chance Kanako Nishino's phone?
Yes.
I am...
I'm Takehara from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
We'd like to ask you some questions at the station regarding the matter from before.
Oh no, oh no, oh no, Oki, no-wan Rail!
I forgot about them...
Kanako?
Then, see you tomorrow.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Goodbye.
You're trying too hard to sound cool.
Kanako Nishino, right?
Do we need to talk to her?
Of course we do.
She was the murdered guy's former subordinate.
It's not decided that it was a murder.
And it happened again with the subway incident.
That was strange too, right?
With that many people around and not a single witness.
In the underground world they say it was K's doing.
K?
Just an urban legend.
K...
Kanako's "K."
Die.
Boss! Boss!
What should I do?
Am I getting arrested?
Imprisoned?
Will I get a shaved head?!
Calm down.
So they figured out it was a homicide.
That detective's sharp.
Well...
Seems like they're just checking everyone who might have a grudge.
Boss.
Did I have an alibi?
Where was I? What was I doing at the time of the crime?
I was selling rifles on the rooftop!
Acting natural is best.
Just stay calm during interrogation.
Interrogation.
Feels like I'm the suspect.
Sorry for the trouble.
Thumpity, thump, thump, turtley thump!
Ah! I'm so nervous!
Boss, I can't act natural!
What should I do?
Smile?
For now I'll just smile.
For identity verification, please state your name and date of birth.
Kanako Nishino.
Born on November 11, 1999.
25 years old.
I'm 30.
And your occupation?
I work at an agency.
An agency? What kind?
What kind? Did he just ask "what kind"?
Wait, are they expecting me to say "assassination"?
Is it a leading question?
Um...
Advertising?
Advertising.
Fancy.
Scary! She just slammed his chair!
So this is the good cop, bad cop thing?
Next, the desk lamp's gonna flash, right?
By the way...
Where were you around 8 PM on April 16 and what were you doing?
April 16?
Yes.
Where were you and what were you doing?
Here it is...
At that time...
I was at home.
Watching Todomenger.
A recorded episode.
What?
I cheetah-ed it!
They totally think I'm lying!
Can I keep pretending?
No, no, no! I can't, I can't!
I'm done for...
I-I-It was me who did it!
Huh?
What?
Takehara?
Sorry, sorry.
I know that show.
That was the Graffiti Monster from last week's Todomenger episode.
What?
Actually...
I like it too, I watch it every week.
Last week's episode was great, right?
"Graffiti on the wall is graffiti of the heart."
"I-I-It was me who did it!" Right?
"Graffiti on the wall is graffiti of the heart!"
"I-I-It was me who did it!"
I see!
Todomenger, huh?
Great!
Finish them.
Finish, finish, finish, finish them!
She doesn't know this, sorry.
Finish them.
Come on!
Finish them.
Hey!
Finish, finish, finish, finish them!
- Sorry. - Excuse him.
Ah, yes. Excuse me.
She has nothing to do with the case.
Satisfied now?
What is this...?
This feeling...
What's wrong?
I don't know.
But...
It really bothers me.
So what's wrong?
Finisher Sentai Todomenger!
Come on, let's all cheer for Todomengers!
Everyone, sing along!
Here we go!
One, two...!
Finish them! Finish them!
Finish, finish, finish, finish them!
- Yeah!
Finish them! Finish them!
Finish, finish, finish, finish them!
- Yeah!
Finish them! Finish them!
Finish, finish, finish, finish them!
Take this laser!
Same goes for you all!
Todomengers!
I'll take my revenge!
Oh no! At this rate...
Todomengers will be defeated!
Please, lend them your power!
Here we go! One, two!
Finisher Power!
Full charge!
So Takehara's also here.
Takehara?!
Nishino!
So you also watched.
Yes...
You really like them, huh?
Yes.
My favorite is Red.
What about you?
Yellow.
I think that's nice.
Aren't the Todomengers usually just plain, ordinary people?
But even so, they can still become heroes of justice.
Watching them gives me courage.
I know!
Sorry, I got a little passionate.
No, it's fine.
Um...
Are you free after this?
Well, no.
I have plans. Bye!
Wait!
Then how about next time?
Um, could that be another interrogation?
No!
It's outside of work!
Um...
If you'd like, maybe we could get something to eat?!
Seriously?
Could that be...
He's asking on a date!
Is it, though?
But he's a cop.
How do I turn him down?
Why? It's not like you're a criminal.
Hmm, true...
But right now, I'm not really looking for someone to date...
Just go once and see how it is.
When's the date? Let's go buy clothes!
Maybe you should diet too?
I don't need to diet!
Have you ever been on a diet?
Yeah, I have.
Even though I run this much...
My calorie burn is...
Only 130?!
Sakurai, you're so skinny.
What do you eat? Chicken breasts?
Noodles.
Not fair!
Even my parents never hit me!
I'll kill you.
I mean, I did ask for this...
Just wanted to slim my arms a bit...
Ow!
Ow.
Come again tomorrow. If you're late, I'll kill you.
A few days later...
Huh?
Whoa...
Who goes on a date looking like this?
Looks like a domestic violence case.
No protective gears this time.
Why?!
I have a date tomorrow...
At least don't hit my face.
That's enough for today. Go home.
What?
I'll kill you!
Thank you very much!
Yo.
You didn't hit her once, huh?
She was just lucky.
To think you hit her every day before.
This is the security footage from Musashi-Nakano Station.
Thanks.
Wasn't today your date with the girl we asked questions?
Hm? Yeah...
Nice shirt.
Really?!
Thanks!
This is a nice shirt, huh?! Right?!
Actually...
I brought two, just in case.
But yeah! This one is best, huh?!
Right?!
You got good style after all!
I trust you!
I'm more confident!
Thank you!
Omori!
Alright! Let's go!
Okay, okay.
I'll give you a ride.
You're awesome...!
Really?!
You're really dolled up today.
I appreciate your compliment.
Hey.
Kirishima.
Yes, Sir.
Today's job is just overseeing the deal site.
We hand over the kid to the Ryudo group.
And take the cash in exchange.
If they resist...
Only shoot if we lose the case.
Any questions?
About what time will we finish?
Huh?
Ah, it's fine. Sorry.
Looks like it's gonna be over late.
Hey.
Ryudo.
You look pale.
Got liver problems or something?
Mr. Otaki.
How's life at the nursing home?
Shut up, punks!
I'm relieved it's a simple job.
I'll go change at the office, then...
Hm?
What should I talk with him?
I can't talk about work.
Ah! Todomenger!
Ahh!
My nails are chipped! Why?!
I don't have a nail polish remover!
What happened?!
Sakurai!
Focus...
There's a sniper over there.
What do I do?
I'm sorry, it's my fault!
I should call an ambulance!
Hey, I'll kill you.
Tell the boss and get out of here!
Sakurai!
I'm sorry...
I'm sorry!
It's my fault!
Because of me, you're...!
I'm sorry!
I'm sorry...
Someone like me...
...is nothing but a cockroach!
Who's there?!
Boss! Run! Run!
So it's K.
No way...
Good work.
He won't die.
I-I'm sorry...
I'll kill you.
I'm really sorry.
There! Straight, straight!
No, no! Right, right!
Huh?
Right! No, left! Left!
- Which way?! - No, right, right! Left?!
W-Which way?! Right?
Why are we involved in another case on a day like this?!
Huh?!
What?!
Because it's natural!
Huh?
Because it's natural!
Natural?
I'm putting this out.
- Huh? Don't! -We won't make it in time.
- I'll put this out! - No!
- Here goes. - Stop!
Thanks! You're a lifesaver!
Your phone!
Nishino!
Sorry! I'm late!
Sorry.
It's okay.
Well then, shall we?
Ah, you see...
Um...
Yes?
Wait...
What's wrong?
Takehara!
Omori?
What's wrong?
Your phone...
Thanks!
Sorry.
I'll be going now.
Okay.
Hey.
So you're the detective from before.
May I ask who are you?
Ah, um, well, you see...
Don't lay a hand on my woman.

Armadillo here.
It's still pretty cold, huh?
How's everyone holding up?
I read in the bath and stuff.
Water resistant phones are nice, huh?
Now, next week on "Happy Kanako":
Kanako returns to her hometown.
It's cheating to get approval from your family.
It's an advice.
Seriously, seriously, rock, paper, scissors!
