As his school days draw to an end, Yuuki Wakura worries about his future. While lamenting the prospect of living an ordinary life, he is suddenly drawn into the world of Mato: an alternate dimension filled with dangerous monsters called Shuuki. Over the years since the existence of Mato was first confirmed, incidents of people accidentally wandering into the other world have become commonplace. To combat the threat of the Shuuki and rescue victims like Yuuki, the all-female Demon Defense Force was established. Its members have been blessed with the power of "Peaches"—Mato fruits that grant supernatural abilities only to women. Though Yuuki's situation is dire, he is saved in the nick of time by Kyouka Uzen, the chief of the Demon Defense Force's seventh unit. Despite Kyouka's impeccable skills in battle, she has long been held back by her Peach-granted ability, Slave. Slave allows Kyouka to put a living being under her control and draw out its strength, but the Shuuki that she had enslaved until now had all proven to be exceedingly weak. When Yuuki and Kyouka become surrounded by a horde of Shuuki, Kyouka resorts to something she has never tried before: using her ability on a man. To her surprise, Yuuki's slave form is much more powerful than she could have imagined. Believing the young man to be the key to unlocking her true potential, Kyouka invites Yuuki to join the Demon Defense Force, but not as a regular member.

00:00This is how I'll become.
00:16This is how I'll become.
00:21Supreme Commander. A hero.
00:25Supreme Commander. A hero.
00:25When I open my eyes, I'm sure I'll be engulfed in darkness.
00:35I'll be left all alone again, and I'll hold back my tears.
00:40I'll hold back my tears.
00:43I swore to myself that I'd grab hold of hope.
00:55I've always had a dream.
01:04It's too high to reach.
01:09But I knew it would come true.
01:12That's what I wished for.
01:14That's when you connected with me.
01:19I'll always look forward. I'll always be pure.
01:24I'm sure I can go with you.
01:29I'll definitely take this world to the light.
01:34I'll definitely change it.
01:37I'll connect with you.
01:49I'll definitely take this world to the light.
02:09Damn it! They just keep coming!
02:16I've got this!
02:26Nice one, Commander!
02:30Boom!
02:32What's this?
02:35Huh?
02:43I'm very disappointed.
02:46I waited patiently, yet only two targets came out to play.
02:50Where are the rest of you?
02:52Two targets with myself included.
02:55Is he after the Commanders?
02:57This fight will be over in the mere blink of an eye!
03:06That was the strength of their leader?
03:10I expected more from those little pests.
03:18If you could stay still, that would be great.
03:21You dare attempt to kick me? How arrogant of you!
03:25My flesh is as strong as steel. Now block this!
03:29I am invincible!
03:33I am invincible!
03:46I'm hurt? Impossible!
03:49Incredible!
03:51She's taking on a humanoid!
03:53Lady Ten is very talented.
03:55She can escape anything because of her ability.
03:58But she doesn't actually need to run away.
04:01Both Commanders came up with a plan to wipe out an invading army in no time flat,
04:05and they did it all in their heads!
04:07Oh my God! Lady Ten! Lady Kyo!
04:10You're so strong!
04:12Oh my God!
04:14Drat!
04:16All right, fine!
04:19Well, this time I'll simply have to...
04:22blow you to pieces!
04:32Good luck avoiding that one!
04:36What? Is she...
04:38Just relax.
04:40That's the end of her.
04:45Did he really think it was over?
04:56She teleported me by touching me?
05:02The perfect decision.
05:05Lady Ten has the godlike ability to manipulate space around her!
05:09Aptly named!
05:11I'll name nobody.
05:32If I rip apart the fabric of space,
05:34your defenses don't do you much good.
05:38An entire swarm of Shuki gone!
05:41All of the Commanders are brilliant like that.
05:43They're obviously on a different level.
05:46And Miss Kyoka wants to be the Supreme Commander in charge of them?
05:50Sounds like an awfully ambitious goal.
05:55True.
05:56But I'm going to be the next Supreme Commander in line!
06:01I guess I don't have to worry.
06:03All right, hunt the stragglers and take them out!
06:06Yes, ma'am!
06:09I can't just stand around gawking at Miss Kyoka.
06:12I made up my mind to be a hero and motto!
06:25We exterminated the Shuki army.
06:27But according to Nei's report,
06:29there were other enemy generals present.
06:31And yet there was no sign of them.
06:33We searched as thorough as possible but still came up empty-handed.
06:37Maybe what happened is all of them got squashed in that big blast.
06:40I'm not so sure.
06:42They were very peculiar.
06:44I'm sorry, everyone.
06:46Even with the power of foresight,
06:48I detected the enemy too late.
06:52Hey, it happens.
06:53They probably used some sort of cloaking ability.
06:56You detected them before they started attacking us.
06:59Meaning, you circumvented any potential for an ambush.
07:02You did your job well.
07:04So don't dwell on the negative.
07:06Precisely.
07:09Little slave.
07:11You really stole the show out there.
07:13Oh, I don't know about that.
07:15You were way more impressive than me, Miss Izumo.
07:18Mr. Yuki!
07:20I witnessed your performance on the battlefield!
07:22So now I know that boys can be talented sometimes too!
07:25If you don't mind, can I have your autograph?
07:28Me?
07:29You see? Now you got a fan.
07:31Hey.
07:33What do you want?
07:34About earlier.
07:38Thank you for saving my life.
07:43Yeah, well, you are an Azuma.
07:45If I let the enemy defeat you, it would bring shame upon the family.
07:49That is the only reason why I saved you!
07:51Of course.
07:52If you're saying that you felt the weight of your own inadequacies,
07:55I'd graciously train them out of you.
07:57So come back home and...
08:00The 7th Squadron is my home.
08:05Writing up a report is going to be a challenge.
08:08As for the exhibition match...
08:10I suppose we'll call it a draw for now.
08:12It's unfortunate.
08:13I was really looking forward to our one-on-one.
08:16Yes, me too.
08:18Well, we'll be heading out now.
08:20Bye-bye, ladies!
08:23See you later.
08:31Well, I'm beat.
08:33I need a nice refreshing bath.
08:38Is this...
08:40supposed to be my reward?
08:41Weren't you the one who asked for this?
08:45So indecent.
08:46Well, he did slay a substantial number of Shuuki today.
08:50Is Kyoka too?!
08:51I get both at the same time?!
08:53It's the price of my ability.
08:55Every single time.
08:57Yet I'm always surprised.
08:59Wait a minute.
09:00She's going to...
09:01get in the hot spring...
09:03with me?!
09:05Freaking pervert.
09:07Take off your damn clothes!
09:08Oh, uh, yes, ma'am!
09:11Huh?
09:18I wasn't exactly sure what to expect
09:20when he stripped down naked, but...
09:22Evidently, he wanted a good scrub down.
09:24I just thought it would be kind of nice
09:26to freshen up a little.
09:27Well, it's basically the same thing as bathing a dog,
09:29so there's no reason to be embarrassed!
09:31I can't understand anything you say when you talk that fast!
09:35Shuuki, your body is more tired than usual, isn't it?
09:40It is.
09:41Two masters at once took a lot out of me.
09:44So it makes you strong, but it's not to be used lightly.
09:47Right.
09:48We learned to utilize the skill in a practical way,
09:51and we'll need to continue
09:53to explore its possibilities in the future.
09:56But for the time being,
09:58you should get some rest.
09:59The dorm hot spring is great for curing fatigue.
10:04I see.
10:14The limbs you saw look like this!
10:19It's amazing as always!
10:21My magnum opus!
10:23Sure, it's good, but the art style is kind of...
10:27They'll make an official composite sketch at HQ later on.
10:32Neither of them are the humanoid we encountered last time.
10:48The one that looks like my sister...
10:51How come she wasn't with them?
10:53Maybe they're a different squad?
10:56Or is there...
10:58some other reason?
11:01I don't know.
11:32So this is the 6th Squadron's dorm.
11:35All of the dormitories look identical on the outside.
11:38I noticed that when we visited the 5th Squadron.
11:41For the most part, yes.
11:43Though the interiors tend to differ slightly.
11:47Welcome to the 6th Squadron dorm!
11:49Thanks for making the trek.
11:51A little change of scenery never hurts.
11:54Did you run into any trouble on your way over?
11:56No, I'm fine.
11:59Did you run into any trouble on your way over?
12:01Took down some Shuki en route, but that's it.
12:04It was business as usual in Mato.
12:09Tenka and I need to have a meeting.
12:11For now, these are my orders.
12:13Get properly acquainted with the 6th Squadron.
12:16A few members went out on an expedition,
12:18so they won't be joining us.
12:20But the rest of the girls are still here in the dorm,
12:22so feel free to take a look around.
12:25And Yuki, as we discussed this morning...
12:27Yes, as the 7th Squad's caretaker,
12:29I will help out in any way I can.
12:31Unfortunately, our caretaker isn't available at the moment.
12:35It's just until they return this evening.
12:37My apologies.
12:38Not a problem.
12:40As part of the Demon Defense Force,
12:41we've got to have each other's backs.
12:43Wouldn't you agree?
12:44Right.
12:45I'll be counting on you.
12:49Right!
12:50Leave it to me!
12:51Leave it to me!
12:55All right!
12:56First things first, cleaning!
13:01Or it would be.
13:02But this place is pretty clean already.
13:07And here I was getting all amped up.
13:12This stain...
13:14Judging by the feel of it,
13:16Formula 5 might work better than just plain old baking soda.
13:20Or maybe...
13:22So many choices!
13:24Next up is laundry!
13:32Breathe.
13:33Just breathe.
13:35You do the 7th Squad's laundry all the time.
13:39Never mind.
13:40I'm still not used to it.
13:45I wonder what Yuki is up to right now.
13:49Oh, man.
13:50I wish I could have gone with him.
13:57I told myself I'd get him to like me more.
14:00If anything,
14:01I should be using this time for self-improvement.
14:06I guess I'll start by tidying up.
14:14Kimari's big sister's room.
14:20I wonder what she'll say when she sees me.
14:26Anyone home?
14:30Hello?
14:33She's not here.
14:35I guess I'll just leave this in her room.
14:38Pardon me?
14:49Kimari's room
14:59Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God!
15:08What the...
15:10Sahara Wakasa?
15:12Why is she asleep in the living room?
15:15And in her underwear, no less!
15:19I can't let her catch a cold.
15:21So I'll just...
15:30Does she think I'm her pillow?
15:35I have to bail before someone sees me.
15:40No, no, you're not going anywhere.
15:42Oh, yeah.
15:44This is the girl who wrestled like a pro in the exhibition match.
15:47Either way, I've got to get free.
15:50Now beware yourself.
15:55And though I wished for escape, I was unable to escape.
16:00So, eventually, I stopped thinking and gave in.
16:07Oh, sorry, my bad.
16:09I completely forgot the Seventh Squadron was supposed to come visit today.
16:13Yeah.
16:18Hey, Himari, what's up?
16:20I'm waiting until she's done to speak to her.
16:40Does Yachiho do this regularly?
16:43She trained like that before the exhibition match, too.
16:46She's pushing herself even harder nowadays.
16:50Hey, do you look up to Yachi?
16:53I mean, since she's your big sister and all.
16:57Her personality is terrible.
16:59But she's successful academically and athletically.
17:02I've always thought I could learn a thing or two from her.
17:05Personally, I'm a fan of the theory that someone's Peach ability is based on their human nature and knowledge they've acquired.
17:13So in your case, your desire to learn from Yachi is the reason why learning became your ability.
17:19And the same goes for Yachi's skill to control time.
17:23It stems from her desire to spend time with her little sister.
17:26Makes sense, don't you think?
17:30I think that you are making a lot of assumptions.
17:33But it might be nice if you talk to her a little more often, right?
17:38Huh? Yeah.
17:40Your big sister's cool.
17:42Here.
17:47I guess she is.
18:04Jeez, the least you can do is say thank you.
18:06What? Can't hear you.
18:08You need to check your attitude.
18:10What a relief.
18:11Looks like they're getting along better already.
18:13Yeah.
18:14Though, I suppose showing her Yachi's room would be the most efficient way to solve this.
18:19Perhaps it would be best to keep that part a secret.
18:24Track down the humanoid Shuki.
18:26Correct.
18:29We've seen no movement from the humanoids since this latest attack.
18:32So instead of waiting around, I think we should make the first move.
18:36Yes, good point.
18:38Large crater. My team encountered a vast group of Shuki there.
18:41It's also where we first engaged a humanoid.
18:43That's where we should start our investigation.
18:45Okay. I don't have any issues with that call.
18:48I'm curious. How many more of these things do you think exist?
18:52We've confirmed a total of four so far.
18:55But you already eliminated one of those four humanoids.
18:59I'm not certain.
19:00To be honest with you, I didn't get the feeling that we truly defeated that being.
19:08Shuki's Room
19:26Glad to see you've made a full recovery, Rairen.
19:31Seriously, that was a very close encounter.
19:39Shuki's Room
19:47It's a good thing you have me.
19:49I could have kept fighting after that.
19:54The battle was lost when you let them raise your army to the ground.
19:58I agree with Shikoku's assessment.
20:01Let us review, shall we?
20:03In order to evaluate the enemy's capabilities, I fought the third squadron.
20:08It was a piece of cake, but their commander wasn't with them at the time.
20:12So the purpose of this recent endeavor was to experience the commander's strength firsthand.
20:17But they blew my expectations out of the water.
20:20It appears that your plan, to use our resources and launch a full-scale attack on the defense force, was trash.
20:27Wait just a second!
20:29They may be a tough organization, but I know they can be beaten.
20:33Which one of us do you think is right, Choryu?
20:37Shikoku.
20:38Of course.
20:40Now that that's settled, we're going with my plan this time.
20:44We will launch an attack once we've gathered all eight people.
20:47Until then, we operate from the shadows.
20:51The eight of us will be together soon enough.
20:54Very well.
20:55However, I hate it when you use the phrase eight people.
20:59We are not filthy humans!
21:01Don't degrade us like that!
21:04My mistake.
21:06Shikoku, you're interested in the humans, aren't you?
21:09Humans are fascinating creatures.
21:12You might say they're more complex than I imagined.
21:16I just can't get enough.
21:18I suppose that concludes today's meeting.
21:22Did you have anything else?
21:24Just one thing regarding personnel.
21:27What is it?
21:31The little slave. Do you mind if I keep him?
21:51I won't let go of the chain that's holding you back.
22:11There are things that can't be helped with just effort.
22:15There are also sudden misfortunes.
22:19But they can be easily overcome.
22:21A special plan begins with your encounter.
22:27My trembling feelings and body heat
22:31will be conveyed to you, won't they?
22:35One, two, three.
22:37Every time we come together, the sound rises.
22:42Let go of your shoulders.
22:45One, two, three.
22:47If we take each other's hands, we'll be able to fly.
22:51I'll hold your hand tight.
22:53I'll hold your hand tight.
22:56I won't let go of the chain that's holding you back.
23:03I won't let go of it.
23:15I won't let go of it.
