Story

"Die Fledermaus" (The Bat)

It is late 19th-century Vienna, where fine ladies and gentlemen have gathered to attend a splendid ball. Renowned physicist Dr. Falke (Kairi Hokusho) and his friend the Marquis von Eisenstein (Yuzuru Kurenai), dressed as a bat and butterfly, respectively, join the merrymaking. After getting themselves roaring drunk, the two chums enter Goddess Park, where they imbibe yet more alcohol at an establishment featuring dancing girls and enjoy a lively conversation. It is here that Alfred (Makoto Rei), the Marquis von Eisenstein's butler, comes to meet his master. At first the Marquis is nonplussed, but once he learns that Rosalinde, his wife, is waiting at their residence and as angry as the Devil, he suddenly makes a beeline for home. Unsure how to deal with his slobbering drunk companion, the Marquis tricks Falke into getting tied up to a statue of the goddess Nike, then dashes off in a hurry. Falke, left behind, falls asleep. As the city comes to life the following morning, he wakes up still dressed in his bat costume and becomes the laughingstock of Vienna. Falke earns the nickname "Dr. Bat" and develops a burning desire to exact his revenge upon von Eisenstein. Dr. Lert (Rei Natori), Falke's former teacher, offers a suggestion: "If revenge is what you seek, at least make it amusing." Thus begins the tale of Dr. Bat's happy retribution...

The story of revenge begins with von Eisenstein receiving a five-day prison sentence for contempt against an official. He then manages to enrage the justice behind the bench in the courtroom and confuse his lawyer, Dr. Blind (Hiroki Nanami), which results in the prison term being extended to eight days. The Marquis is ordered to begin serving his sentence forthwith. Just before he is to enter the penitentiary, Falke comes along and invites his friend to join him at a banquet being put on by Prince Orlofsky of Russia (Kaito Seijo), who has invited many a young and beautiful lady. Having received two summons of differing natures, von Eisenstein contrives a fib for his wife, then departs from his home decked out in his finest attire and feeling in high and proud spirits. But the Marquis is not the only one whom Falke has invited to the banquet, as he has asked von Eisenstein's wife Rosalinde and maid Adele (Fu Hinami) to attend as well. After opening with Falke's scrupulous scheme, the setting for this story of vengeance shifts over to the mansion of Prince Orlofsky before unfolding yet further....
