ファイアーボーイズ ~め組の大吾~ | FIRE BOYS – Megumi no Daigo Episode 3 [English subtitled]

"Soon after becoming a fireman," "I… " "began to feel the terror of fire" "and witness its power. " You… could kill… people. "My thinking, my confidence," "were broken at that fire site that day. " "I… " "felt truly useless. " "That’s how… " "I learned that the academy and reality are nothing alike. " "There’s much, much I still need to learn about fire. " Arrest my little buddy for interrupting your work, if you wish. But… at that time, all of us from Megumi will oppose you. "That’s right. " "They’re lazy… and unorthodox, but" "their firemen’s passion above all others" "triumphed. " "In Megumi’s ‘My Team. ‘" Alright, let’s invite our station hero, Kyuta-kun, please. Hold on! Way too soft! Again! Why does captain always involve himself in these? A true kid lover. Now let’s invite Kyuta out. Please. – Wait a minute! It’s too heavy! Go, go! Go! "Firemen consistently… get invited to schools. " "We conduct fire drills and teach fire safety. " "From us, aside from that," "the kids also learn a bit about our work as firemen. " Alright. Hey, Kyuta, energize, energize! Take it seriously. – Annoying jerk. Oh, no good! Itch! What’s wrong? Scared? Alright! If you’re scared, I’ll go with you… Take it seriously. Damn it all, what’s with kids these days? Damn it all! What kind of sewing is this? Mahiru, show him how it’s done. Shut up; give it back! Those two are at it again. – Don’t mind them. Bicker, bicker, the friendship grows! Chief! Matzura-san… his appendicitis is true? Yes. He’ll be laid up a few days. – Then a substitute for him…? But… all of the other medics are on vacation. Then it’s just Jun and Oda-san working? Don’t worry, we firefighters will help. Uh…? Oh, then Daigo can sub! – Huh?! Relax, just consider it a valuable learning experience for rookies. Good? – "Good?!" You’re a rookie, too! I’m YOUR senior… – Definitely a good idea. Hold on now! I’m still new to fire-fighting! So much to learn right here… Captain! Wouldn’t losing a man put you in a bind? Not at all. Right? Asahina being gone, super smooth, right? Well, it would be like dropping a heavy weight, yes? Chief! It’s good to learn new things. Ueki-san, Ueki-san, doesn’t this chart look unbalanced? I thought the same… – Hey! – Alert. Section 2. – Place: Shinoksi… Got a feeling this one’s big. Let’s move! – Yes! – Severe factory fire… You’re… on EMS, yes? But chief…! Thanks for your help. Oxygen pump is here, gas mask here. To use it… I know all of that, why worry so much? I see. Uh, then, moving on… Safety gloves up there, masks are here; got it. At the academy, I aced first-aid. Just leave it to me. That’s good, but… Well… working with Jun-chan will give me a relaxing break. Huh?! Uh, well… actually… being an EMT is hard, but not like a fireman. I can unwind a bit. – Medical alert. – Place: Shinoksi, Medakagaoka City Park. – Unconscious man on park grounds; possible alcohol involvement. Drunk in broad daylight… – It’s common, come on. Over there! Hello, can you hear me? Daigo-kun, a blanket. Reeks of booze… Yoshiko! Thank you… thank…! Seriously?! Stupid looking! Great fire, huh? Never expected it would be that big. There was a gas leak, too. Amakasu’s quick thinking helped a lot. Accurately predicting where the fire would spread. No, I just doused flames. In these cases, gas suffocation is the #1 killer, right? My first time seeing it! – A chemical plant explosion is very rare indeed. Well, a rare, but good training experience. Oh, what the? Back already? How was your job? Well, just transported a drunk to the hospital, but… I see. Amakasu. – Yes? Earlier, the fire was caused by a gas leak. Don’t spray straight on, but from the sides, instead. Only aerial buckets for straight sprays. And narrow area fires? What kind of spray should we use? Then you should spray at the ceiling. Use the rebound. I see. But what kind of angle should I use…? Time for lunch! Daigo? [Medakagaoka Fire Department] What am I doing? Hurry, if you don’t eat now, you’ll be out of luck. Huh? – Our workday is just beginning. – Medical Alert. – Shinoksi, Medakagaoka, sector five. " So much for lunch. Let’s go! Yes. "EMS is so different. " "Their unit, day after day, receives over 20 calls. " "24 hours of every day… they’re on-call. " "Their sleeping and meal times are smaller. " "They treat pregnant women," "poison victims," "sauna heat exhaustion, even. " "Where… the need for them seems so endless," "there’s not a moment to rest. " – The first-aid equipment, please. Yes. "Sometimes, they’re just people with minor injuries. " "They also get incidents of false alarms. " EMS! – You okay?! Well… this won’t slice my mochi. (Rice cakes) Damn, a senseless call. I’m totally wiped out. I’m glad no one was injured. Huh? – No injuries is always best. We’ve had choking cases for their same problem. I didn’t think of that. Just know, every EMS call is one I take very seriously. Doesn’t matter if it’s a scratch, toothache, or even helping remove a ring from a finger. I think if even just our presence can give relief, that’s enough. You’re here. Pretty tired, huh? Want some food? – No, I’m fine. As of 3AM, we ran 12 calls. I’m too weak to eat. It’s because EMS is so hectic. Especially for Jun. She’s also studying for her certification exam. Jun’s taking the Paramedic exam? – Yeah. She spends her nights and off-days studying. How awful. That’s incomprehensible. When she… first started working here, she wasn’t able to save the life of a 6-year-old patient. Her instructor at the time said, with proper treatment, the girl might’ve lived. She thinks a certificate could’ve saved the girl? Right. Without knowledge, you can’t properly solve a problem, right? But that wasn’t Jun-chan’s fault. – Of course it wasn’t. But, she wasn’t consoled, and constantly worries. That’s why she never relaxes, and stays prepared. That so. Here. Thanks. – Hey! What’s going on? Why are you two together?! Mahiru-made rice balls! Delicious! Say, by the way, be serious in EMS. Though you probably think it’ll be a cinch. That’s not true! – It’s how you are. Self-centered and conceited. Knowing nothing, but acting so capable. Anyhow, don’t cause Jun-chan any trouble. I… know that! "That’s how… " "the long, long EMS workday ended. " [Episode 3] (Paramedic Exam study guides) Oh… Jun-chan, do you live near here? Yeah. I live with Mahiru-san. I see. I can lend mine to you. Huh? That book. Hey, want some ice cream? – Ice cream? Yeah. Wasabi ice cream. Let’s go. Hot wasabi… cold ice cream! It’s good this way. I don’t get it. Him. Hey, what’s wrong? You know him? – School fire drill session. Are you in pain? Is it asthma? Carrying your medicine? I’ll get it out, okay? Breathe in. Doing okay? Was it a sudden attack? Asthma constricts and inflames the airways, you know? It’s usual trigger is the weather. Where’s your mother? – At work. I see. Then I’ll walk you home, okay? Excuse us… That’s…! You must love Kyuta! I wore the costume. You’re 100 years away from being a good Kyuta! I’m home. Kota, you here? Sorry. We’re not crooks! – We’re with the fire department. Kota-kun had an asthma episode just a while ago; we walked him home. For just entering, we’re sorry. That’s what happened? Kota, you okay? I apologize for your trouble. Now, I’ll fix drinks, excuse me. Um… do you think you could walk him to school since he has asthma…? – Hush up. I’m sorry. Truly I want to walk him, but… 2 years ago, I got divorced. I have to work now. Forgive my thoughtlessness! It’s fine! But, thank goodness… Kota, a fireman rescued you today. Hey? Someday, he wants to be a fireman. At last year’s fire drill, Kyuta fascinated this fan. Last year’s drill? The captain played Kyuta then. What? Captain was Kyuta?! He was so into it, he fell down. Hey, come thank them. Maybe when you become a fireman someday, this man will be your captain. That kinda man will never make captain! I’m so sorry…! You took off Kyuta’s head? It was itchy and smelly. No wonder he’s so upset. Why? Daigo-kun, Kamen Rider without his mask would upset you? Sure. That’s how it is. Thunder! Gonna storm. – Looks that way. My little babies hate thunder! Hope they’re alright. Looks like it’s getting closer. Kanagawa could be in for a deluge. Well, when it rains, there’s no fire, that’s good. That’s right. EMS has it harder, though. The chances for accidents increase drastically. – Medical alert. Section 16, Inomiya outskirts. – Bicycle accident… Daigo-kun? Yeah! Where is it? Inomiya. Hey! – Huh?! This. You’re pathetic. – Heavy, nonstop rain in the city – is causing floods – and numerous accidents… Massive rainfall. Oh, chief, there will probably be a typhoon alert tonight. Ah, then we’re gonna have our hands full. Taira. – Yes? You, Amakasu and Mahiru… go recon. Yes. – "Recon?" Do a landslide check. Sorry, it’s because we’re prone to landslides here. Last year, several people died. Let’s go! – Yes. Thanks for your efforts. – Thanks for your efforts. Thanks… where’re you headed? Doing a landslide check. It’s gonna be a deluge. You all should do street checks, too. Yes! A deluge? That’s not good. But hopefully no one will get injured. – Medical alert. Place: Medakagaoka Kindergarten. – A male student, an asthma suffer, has lost consciousness. Medakagaoka Kindergarten student, asthma suffer…! Kota! His face is too pale. It looks very serious. Yes. This morning he acted up. After his medicine, he seemed fine. We must get him to the hospital. This might be an asthma side effect. His mother been notified? – Moments ago. Sorry for your trouble. – We’ve given him oxygen. Now his SPU is rising. Daigo. – Yes. Prepare for X-rays. STRAIGHT… into X-rays. He’ll be okay? – We have to run some tests first. Be strong, Kota! Will he make it? We can only trust the doctors now. All finished, let’s head back. What’s wrong with you? Nothing… kinda apprehensive. I understand how you feel, but we can’t do anything more for him. Only pray for his safety. Hey… could I stay just a bit? I’ll return before the next call. That’s not possible. You cannot act based on personal feelings for the child. You know that, right? No… personal feelings aren’t it. Earlier, touching his chest, it seemed swollen to me. I could be wrong, but I feel uneasy. With just a touch, there’s no way to know for sure. We just have to let the doctors treat him. Kota… Kota?! Currently being examined. Excuse me! Please wait! Doctor, they’re still here! Thank goodness! – What’s going on? The recent boy Kota-kun… has severe pneumonia. We lack the facilities to treat him. He needs a CCU at a main hospital AT ONCE. Understood. Shucho has a main hospital. Daigo, the stretcher. Shucho Main Hospital? Quite a distance. But it’s the closest CCU hospital. There’s no choice. Shucho’s mountain pass? It’s a deluge, do be careful. Yes. Worrisome. Don’t give up! Be strong! Kota, be strong! Heartbeat 140, SPU dropping; what now? Give him more oxygen. – Okay. Oda-san! How much longer ‘til we get there? In this rain, maybe about 40 minutes. That long?! Shortcut. – Huh? Oda-san, what if we take Toryo Road? Toryo Road? Might take only 20 minutes that way. Alright! Let’s do it. Toryo Road? Will they be okay? Captain’s always said that road is prone to landslides. Yeah, but, even a minute off could cost the boy’s life. That road is their only option? Don’t give up. We’ll be there soon. Kota… Mother! If you’re not strong, then what? Ouch! Are you okay? What happened? – Avoiding a falling tree, we slid. Is everyone okay? Damn! We’re stuck in the mud! I’ll try to push it. Me, too. Again, please! Again! Shit…! This is EMS 1, can you read me? The radio? – Not working. Can’t reach HQ. This is EMS 1, can you read me? Shit. – We have to find another way. What can we do? He’ll be dead soon. – Never speak that way! Regardless, no other vehicles will dare this road tonight. If we carried Kota, could we reach the hospital in time? No, it’d take at least an hour. Waiting for a rescue is our best option. HQ will find us! But, it’ll take them at least 20 min. to get here, and the road is so bad, and any later than that Kota-kun… can’t be saved. Chief! We’ve lost all contact with the EMS unit. What’s going on? – Hopefully it’s just temporary. Upsetting, though, that road is so dangerous during deluges. Taira is where? He should be somewhere near Shucho by now. All of you go out and search for the medical unit. We’re heading to Toryo Road. Let’s go! – Yes! No communication with them for over 20 minutes. The boy’s in a bad way. Every minute, every minute counts here. What were you thinking, Daigo?! I said take EMS seriously! Anyhow, let’s find them. Fast. – Yes! Inflammation is getting worse. Should the lungs… puncture… No, Kota! Kota! Hang on… There’s nothing else we can do? He wants to be a fireman. He can’t be a fireman if he dies here! Hey! Oy, Kota? Hey! What’re you doing?! – Let go! Jun-chan… But… I can’t cause another death. Can’t just wait for him to die. I must save him! Save him! Jun-chan! Shit. Jun-chan, I’ll carry Kota. What are you thinking? It’ll take much too long… There is… I know another way. Through there. Don’t be absurd. That route will be absolutely impossible! Shucho is at the base of this mountain. Only 30 minutes, no, 20 minutes away. It’s pitch black and pouring! You get lost or injured, too, it’ll be a tragedy! Don’t you realize?! – That sure beats this! Trying that way gives us room to hope! And… I played here as a child, so I’ll be fine. But that’s nothing to gamble on! If it doesn’t save him, then what?! – I WILL save him, sir! Otherwise, we’re pointless. I beg you… Kota… I beg you. A Megumi EMT! I’ll carry the oxygen pump. Shall we go? Maybe… he’ll make it. Be strong… Kota. You want to be a fireman, right? A fireman you will be! This isn’t something that can beat you! Fight! The patient?! – How’s the patient? Well… Asahina’s carrying him out that route. That so. Daigo-kun! I’m fine! – Let me see. To make sure. I’m fine. Just slipped. Let’s go! I’ll save you. I’ll save you! Daigo-kun! You’re badly injured. Shit… can’t give out… Kota? Kota! Mister. Gotta hang on…! – Fireman and sick child missing on Shucho Mountain. – All available units, please respond. Man… what was he thinking? Taking that way in this weather. What’s with that guy?! I’m trusting that guy. Absolutely the child will be saved. Absolutely. Captain, over there! Daigo-kun. Captain. Guys. You’re a pitiful sight, aren’t you? With a sick child, attempting a 20 min. mountain trek during a deluge. That was idiocy, what were you thinking? I’m sorry… but it’s all I could do. And… Kota? Saved. Five minutes later… would’ve been too late. Even if you had managed to free the medical unit, or never left the main road, it would’ve been too late. Then…? Your choices were correct. But… everything seemed to be against me. And… I was breaking the rules… If I were… that child’s parent, I’d say, "Absolutely… " "your being there… " "was a godsend. " Remember to write your apology letter. HQ is really pissed. Alright! What the, your handwriting sucks! I’ll show you my apology letter. Well? It’s beautiful. An apology letter deserves such pride? And this "medical unit," both words are spelled wrong. Oh… gimme that. Gimme that. Matzura-san, in blood-loss cases, which method should we use? I feel that… "Matzura-san of the appendicitis" is back. EMS loses little buddy. – They’ll be relieved! But Kota is recovering very well. Truly great, right? Well, when he’s well, I’ll don "Kyuta" and revisit his school. I won’t lose to captain at this. Well, you’re 100 years away from beating me. What are you talking about? Chief! For making you worry, I’m sorry! About my recent disobedience, I’m truly very sorry. No… this letter can’t earn me your forgiveness, but, it also includes my reasons. And they’re also in my report. So… I’m ready for whatever punishment! Though I know that mountain well, it was raining and dark, I knew the risks, but went anyway. Seriously reckless of me… Tea. – Huh? Bring me tea; tea. Are you deaf or what? Yes!

A young boy by the name of Asahina Daigo was once rescued by a fireman. Ever since then, he has wanted to become a firefighter like the hero who saved him from the flames. Now he’s all grown-up and has recently received his credentials as a firefighter. However, the firefighting brigade he is assigned to is the so-called “Me-Gumi,” the nickname of the Medakagaoka Fire Brigade, which at first glance seems to have absolutely no fighting spirit whatsoever. In reality, this is the home of a group of seasoned professionals led by that legendary firefighter Commander Gomi. They’re active on the front lines, constantly putting their lives at risk. The innocent Daigo, burning with a sense of justice and of mission, battles together with his “Me-Gumi” compatriots, suffering, laughing and crying together with them as he develops into a topflight firefighter in this moving human drama. –Fuji Creative
