Betterman (ベターマン)

Aono Keita age 17, we are traveling with him across the ocean

to start testing his abilities as a Head Diver

I and Sai Kinoki, the three of us, will depart from Hotalugai

passing through Handeda and go to the Mody Warp Headquarters

This is Great!, This is great great great!

This is the brand new C21 Cargo Plane

hmm, all planes look the same to me

Ahh!

ah, a woman wouldn't understand

but still, this plane still hasn't been distributed to the

National Guard yet.

Could it be a prototype, or a specially modified one?

; could that be weapon bay?

does he understand that he's being used as a guiny pig?

A bird of the night

above the sky

it flys away

and many, and many, puppets within it

Sora- Sky

Man when the guys find out i got to fly on a C21

They'll piss in their pants

Hey i can see the two Bridges at the same time

don't tell me this is your first time on a plane?

hey that's the Umi-Hotalu

The plane is currently on a steady course

we should arrive at HQ on schedual tommorow morning

then please relax

Tired

no it's not that

it's about what happend

it feels like it happened a long time ago

um Asami-san, about the Betterman

yeah that that that

So what was it?

at the end of the 20th century

in North Carolina, there was a creation of a super plankton

Feseliaktiseen

it was able to change itself into a better lifeform

as the enviroment changed in a short time

While in the dirt, it would act as a plant, using clorophome

when plants would grow around it, it would turn to something like an Amoeba

Feeding off the plants, when fish become abundant, it would turn into a

Meat eating parasite. beside that it had over 24 other forms,

It was capable of creating Toxins to protect itself, and even more surprising

it could create a gas that would make humans lose a short period or even

days worth of memories

of course, we don't know if that was to keep us humans from knowing

of it's existance

so that plankton is the true form of Betterman

possibily, or another life form which is capable of

becoming a better lifeform. an advanced Humanoid

That's my theory

According to Sakura's battle data, he has his battle form Libra

and his humanoid form Lami

come to think of it his hair kind of look liked Hinoki's

Hinoki, Hinoki

Don't say stupid things

I won't change into a monster like that

i didn't mean it like that

where are you going?

The Bathroom

oh, i'll bring tea out very soon

oh thank you

Lami...Huh?

For betterman to be able to change into something like that

his insides must be pretty complicated

Keita

yes?

in your lifestyle, like

like

this

you're belt isn't really necessary correct?

it's only a piece of rope, but it serves it purpous well right?

when you're full you can loosen it up also too

that's basically what it means

evolution doesn't have to be complicated

if it truly is a super lifeform

it could possibly survive below -270 degrees

or even over 2000 degrees if so it truly goes beyond what

we expect

in otherwise, don't judge a book by a cover

do you like things like this?

it's kind of hard but it's interesting

Then you could possibily become a scholor

oh not really, it's faster to count my grade from the bottom

no no, didn't i say it? don't judge things from the outside

you have to look inside first, that's the first thing you learn

in science

huh? a light malfunction?

i'll take a look

oh me too

oh escuse me

the piloting area is fine right?

This is

A doll

the one they use for crash test it seems

Why is this here?

Shi------ neeeeee Shi------- ne (die)

coming, somethings coming

to the cockpit

Why won't it open?

Shi------ neeeeee

Escuse me!

escuse me

they're all dolls!

The auto pilot is on, so we're fine but if we don't enter a flight path

we'll eventually fall

Why?

Shi------ ne

Pres!

Huh?

Sakura-chan said

Keita-san

Above the sky

HInoki-san, and Asami-san

Surrounded by many puppets

Puppets?

some kind of dolls maybe?
