[00:09] No Face
    No Face to Wide Area Network 1.
[00:13] No Face
    We will now begin
    full-scale combat operations.
[00:17] No Face
    All Legion within this network
    are to cease standby operations.
[00:21] No Face
    All Legion within this network
    are to cease standby operations.
[00:26] No Face
    Our targets are the Giad Federacy
    in the eastern region,
[00:29] No Face
    the United Kingdom of Roa Gracia
    to the north,
[00:34] No Face
    the Alliance of Wald to the south,
[00:37] No Face
    and the Republic of San Magnolia
    to the west.
[00:41] No Face
    All Legion attached to this network,
[00:44] No Face
    begin the attack.
[02:27] Shin
    Wake up.
[02:29] Raiden
    Listen...
[02:31] Raiden
    At least say "wake up" 
    before you yank out my pillow.
[02:34] Shin
    There's no time.
[02:36] Raiden
    They're finally coming?
[02:39] Shin
    Yeah.
SIGN    August 28th, Stellar Year 2149
[02:41] Raiden
    How many?
[02:42] Shin
    I don't want to even try to count.
[02:45] Shin
    If anything,
    I wish somebody would tell me.
[02:47] Raiden
    This isn't like you.
[02:48] Shin
    This is close to the worst case
    I'd imagined.
[02:52] Shin
    Some of the forces I'd expected them to send
    to other nations are headed for the Federacy.
[02:58] Shin
    The West appears to be the most
    important theater to the Legion.
[03:02] Raiden
    Well, ain't that an honor.
[03:07] Raiden
    You...
[03:08] Shin
    During the battle today, don't connect to me
    unless you absolutely have to.
[03:13] Shin
    I thought I was used to it,
    but what I'm feeling tonight is rough.
[03:20] Raiden
    Roger.
[03:21] Shin
    I'll let you get the unit prepared.
[03:24] Shin
    Wake the others.
[03:27] Raiden
    What about you?
[03:28] Shin
    This isn't the time to stay quiet.
[03:31] Shin
    I'm waking up the entire army.
[03:37] Processor 1
    Shit. If this turns out to be a drill,
[03:40] Processor 1
    that so-called Reaper is gonna get
    an "accidental" bullet to the back.
[03:43] Processor 2
    I'll shoot him where he stands.
[03:46] Bernholt
    You two wouldn't stand a chance.
[03:49] Bernholt
    Stop talking and get ready.
[04:22] Soldier 1
    What?
[04:23] Soldier 2
    Are those all...
[04:25] Soldier 2
    There are so many!
[04:34] Soldier 3
    Incoming fire for effect!
[04:44] Soldier 4
    Defense Line 1 has taken heavy enemy damage!
[04:47] Soldier 4
    Requesting reinforcements from the rear!
[04:57] Soldier 5
    Everybody who's still alive,
    gather up your weapons and ammo!
[05:00] Soldier 5
    We're defending this place,
    no matter what!
[05:07] Operator
    We've calculated the enemy's total numbers!
[05:10] Operator
    Displaying on monitor!
[05:12] Grethe
    No... So every area in the theater
    is under large-scale assault?
[05:19] Grethe
    This is far more than we expected.
[05:22] Grethe
    The western front is going to collapse!
[05:26] Comms
    The United Kingdom of Roa Gracia and the
    Alliance of Wald are experiencing similar attacks.
[05:31] Comms
    They're both giving it their all,
    but I don't know that they'll be able to last.
[05:36] Shin
    Ma'am.
[05:37] Grethe
    Lieutenant Nouzen, what's the situation?
[05:39] Grethe
    When will you be ready to go?
[05:41] Shin
    Whenever.
[05:42] Shin
    Nordlicht squadron is all ready to go.
[05:46] Grethe
    How are you ready so fast?
[05:48] Shin
    You did not authorize us to prepare,
[05:50] Shin
    but please save any lectures for later.
[05:53] Grethe
    All right. Tell me
    all about this later, Lieutenant.
[05:56] Grethe
    Maintain our combat lines until the other units
    are ready to go, no matter the cost!
[06:01] Shin
    Roger.
[06:04] Soldier 6
    Retreat!
[06:05] Soldier 6
    The Löwes are coming!
[06:10] Soldier 7
    Commander!
[06:11] Soldier 8
    Don't go!
    No one can save them now.
[06:14] Soldier 8
    Follow me!
[06:37] Soldier 8
    A Reginleif...
[06:54] Soldier 8
    So this is Nordlicht squadron...
[06:58] Shin
    Are there any other survivors?
[07:00] Soldier
    Not any more.
[07:01] Soldier
    We're the last.
[07:02] Soldier
    The others were all killed
    by those scrapheads.
[07:05] Shin
    I see.
[07:07] Shin
    Withdraw and regroup, please.
[07:10] Shin
    We'll buy you time.
[07:17] Anju
    Okay... Let's get to work.
[07:34] Kurena
    There they are!
[07:36] Kurena
    Look at 'em all!
[07:38] Kurena
    Like ants that had their nest kicked in.
[07:51] Kurena
    I'll start with their commanders.
[07:53] Kurena
    I'll be changing places, so back me up.
[07:57] Raiden
    Roger, Kurena.
[07:58] Raiden
    Leave the little ones to me.
[08:01] Theo
    Okay, here we go!
[08:44] Pilot
    Don't shoot, Nordlicht squadron.
[08:46] Pilot
    We're allies.
[08:47] Pilot
    That headless skeleton...
[08:50] Pilot
    You're the commander, right?
[08:52] Shin
    Lieutenant Shinei Nouzen,
    commander of Nordlicht squadron.
[08:56] Shin
    What's the situation?
[08:57] Pilot
    It appears we managed to drive off
    the first wave of Legion attackers.
[09:02] Pilot
    As have the other combat areas.
[09:04] Pilot
    This happened only because your emergency unit
    managed to hold them off.
[09:08] Pilot
    You saved a lot of lives.
[09:10] Pilot
    The other units have all launched.
[09:13] Pilot
    It's okay now.
[09:15] Pilot
    Fall back and resupply,
    then follow orders from command.
[09:19] Pilot
    The Federacy will handle this.
[09:22] Shin
    I'm sorry, but that last Legion unit
     was just an advance force.
[09:26] Shin
    The second group is the main one.
[09:28] Shin
    If we fall back now,
[09:29] Shin
    this area will collapse.
[09:31] Pilot
    What?
[09:32] Shin
    We'll leave this area to you.
[09:34] Shin
    We're going to intercept the main wave.
[09:37] Shin
    If we can take down the front line
    of their advance, it will slow them down.
[09:41] Pilot
    Wait, Lieutenant.
    What do you mean—
[09:43] Shin
    Transmission over.
[09:45] Shin
    You all heard that, right?
[09:48] Shin
    Follow me if you want to live.
[09:50] All
    Right!
[09:52] Sergeant
    Take all the ammo we've got!
[09:54] Sergeant
    The minute a truck is full up, it goes!
[09:56] Supply guy
    Sergeant, our spares are ready to go!
[09:59] Sergeant
    Have them ready to go when ordered.
[10:01] Supply guy
    Yes, ma'am!
[10:02] Sergeant
    Listen to me!
    Don't make Fido come get anything!
[10:05] Sergeant
    He needs to concentrate
    on supporting the commander!
[10:09] Sergeant
    Bringing supplies to the front
    when they're needed is our job!
[10:25] Shin
    Fire.
[11:05] Raiden
    Looks like we're just getting started.
[11:11] Frederica
    If only I knew where Kiri was,
    I could help them...
[11:39] Frederica
    There!
[11:41] Operator
    The second wave is being held off
    in all combat areas!
[11:45] Operator
    Nordlicht squadron has begun advancing
    on the enemy's main formation!
[11:49] Operator
    They're still fighting on the front lines!
[12:08] Operator
    They're monsters.
[12:12] Shin
    Shinei.
[12:16] Shin
    Shinei, Kiri is...
[12:20] Shin
    Are you listening, Shinei?
[12:22] Shin
    Kiri is...
[12:27] Shin
    What are you doing, Shinei?
[12:38] Shin
    Shinei...
[12:43] Shin
    Shinei!
[12:54] Shin
    No...
[12:59] Shin
    No!
[13:01] Kurena
    Shin?
[13:09] Frederica
    You...
[13:22] Frederica
    You mustn't keep fighting like that!
[14:14] Grethe
    Command to all members
    of Nordlicht squadron.
[14:18] Grethe
    Good work.
[14:19] Grethe
    The Legion are falling back.
[14:22] Grethe
    Return to base.
[14:28] Shin
    Roger.
[14:35] Anju
    Frederica?
[14:55] Frederica
    Shinei, you fool.
[15:00] Frederica
    You're just like Kiri.
[15:08] Frederica
    You huge fool!
SIGN    August 25th, Stellar Year 2149
[15:27] Soldier
    This is Northern Combat Lines
    Combat District 1 Squadron 1, Sledgehammer...
[15:33] Soldier
    To all Eighty-Six Processors
    hearing this message...
[15:38] Soldier
    This is Sledgehammer Combat Commander, Blackbird.
[15:43] Soldier
    Our war is over.
[15:46] Soldier
    All Processors hearing this message...
[15:49] Soldier
    All who fought to the end...
[15:51] Soldier
    All who survived...
[15:54] Soldier
    We're finally leaving the service.
[15:57] Soldier
    We all did our best, huh?
[16:04] Soldier
    You get what you deserve.
[16:29] Rep Officer 1
    What's that?
[16:31] Rep Officer 1
    A movie?
[16:32] Rep Officer 2
    Somebody turn off that alarm!
[16:35] Rep Officer 2
    Quiet!
[16:37] Lena
    The Gran Mur...
[16:42] Lena
    The railgun...
[16:48] Annette
    Lena, that warning!
[16:51] Shiden
    I may as well let you know, Your Highness.
[16:53] Shiden
    The main attack came from the north!
[16:55] Shiden
    The north side's fallen,
[16:57] Shiden
    and the east and west are under attack
    from the north, too!
[17:02] Lena
    Yes, Annette, Cyclops.
[17:04] Lena
    I'm aware.
[17:06] Lena
    It's finally time.
[17:09] Karlstahl
    What do you think
    you're doing, Captain Milizé?
[17:15] Lena
    General Karlstahl...
[17:21] Lena
    I'm bringing all squadrons
    from all areas inside the Gran Mur
[17:24] Lena
    to build a defense line
    before the Legion reach District 1
[17:28] Lena
    and intercept the enemy there.
[17:30] Lena
    If we do that, we may still survive.
[17:32] Karlstahl
    Forget it.
[17:34] Karlstahl
    The people of the Republic would be better off
    being destroyed by the Legion
[17:39] Karlstahl
    than letting Eighty-Six inside the Gran Mur.
[17:42] Lena
    Are you still—
[17:44] Karlstahl
    The Eighty-Six will never fight
    for the Republic.
[17:47] Karlstahl
    The Republic oppressed, abandoned,
    and slaughtered them.
[17:52] Karlstahl
    Even if we beg them to protect us now,
[17:56] Karlstahl
    they have no reason or obligation to do so.
[17:59] Karlstahl
    The most they'll do is laugh
    and tell us we're getting what we deserve.
[18:05] Lena
    They aren't obligated, but they do have a reason.
[18:09] Lena
    We possess manufacturing and
    power plants that they don't have.
[18:15] Lena
    They've spent enough time on the battlefield
    that when it comes down to it,
[18:19] Lena
    they'll decide that
    they need those things to survive.
[18:23] Karlstahl
    They may obey us at first,
[18:26] Karlstahl
    but they'll soon realize that it would be
    much easier to fight the Legion alone
[18:33] Karlstahl
    than protect a bunch of useless citizens
    who do nothing but complain.
[18:38] Karlstahl
    And what will happen then?
[18:40] Karlstahl
    If we're lucky,
    it will just be a massacre.
[18:43] Karlstahl
    But you've studied enough history
    to know that that won't be the case.
[18:50] Lena
    Even so...
[18:52] Lena
    I don't want to give up on everything
    or just wait to die!
[18:57] Lena
    Even if I'm going to fail and die,
[19:00] Lena
    I want to fight
    until that moment comes!
[19:05] Lena
    Otherwise...
[19:08] Lena
    The ones who did the same...
[19:12] Lena
    The ones who believed
    that I could do the same...
[19:17] Lena
    I'll never be able to face them!
[19:21] Announce
    We have an explanation
    regarding the warning a moment ago.
[19:24] Announce
    Soldiers and officers,
    please come to the meeting hall.
[19:28] Announce
    I repeat:
[19:29] Announce
    We have an explanation
    regarding the warning a moment ago.
[19:32] Announce
    Soldiers and officers,
    please come to the meeting hall.
[19:38] Karlstahl
    Then do what you want.
[19:40] Karlstahl
    Follow your impossible dream
    until you're satisfied.
[19:46] Karlstahl
    It's a child's right to dream, Captain Milizé,
[19:50] Karlstahl
    and until that child wakes up
    from her dream
[19:53] Karlstahl
    and is crushed against the rocks
    of a merciless reality,
[19:55] Karlstahl
    it's an adult's job to protect her.
[20:01] Karlstahl
    I can buy you time, if nothing else.
[20:04] Lena
    Did you always intend to...
[20:06] Karlstahl
    It's time for you to be crushed, Lena,
[20:10] Karlstahl
    as you watch your naïve dreams
     shatter against reality.
[20:15] Lena
    Wait, uncle—
[20:27] Lena
    Good luck, General Karlstahl.
[20:35] Lena
    I'm going to reach that place.
[20:47] Lena
    Para-RAID, activate.
[20:50] Lena
    Synchronization target:
    All processors.
[20:58] Lena
    Synchronization complete.
[21:02] Lena
    Bloody Regina to all Processors
    in all combat areas!
[21:06] Lena
    A large-scale Legion offensive has begun!
[21:09] Lena
    You are to gather within the 85 districts
    and begin combat.
[21:12] Lena
    All personnel within National Defense HQ,
[21:16] Lena
    remove anti-personnel mines
    and open the Gran Mur's gates immediately.
[21:19] Lena
    Everything we've done was for this day...
[21:22] Lena
    To protect our honor...
[21:24] Lena
    Let's fight until the end.
[22:59] Frederica
    On that day,
    Kiri attacked the Republic.
[23:03] Frederica
    What I saw was a shattered wall
    and a burning five-color flag.
[23:09] Frederica
    And a huge Legion...
[23:12] Theo
    Which means?
[23:14] Anju
    They're inside the 85 districts?
[23:16] Kurena
    It's probably all over then, right?
[23:18] Raiden
    Yeah.
[23:20] Theo
    Is he still attacking the Republic?
[23:23] Frederica
    No, now he's...
[23:28] Kiri
    I'll kill you!
[23:29] Frederica
    Get down! Kiri is...!
[23:36] Shin
    "I won't forget."
