[03:43] Background
    Whoa!
[03:44] Background
    Look at this!
[03:51] Kurena
    If it's that hard, you should just quit.
[03:56] Kurena
    We don't really need you for anything.
[03:59] Kurena
    Nothing really changes
    if we don't have a control officer.
[04:02] (Flashback) L
    Lieutenant Kukumila...
[04:04] Kurena
    Listening to you trying to keep from losing it,
    when you're not even here,
[04:07] Kurena
    is distracting.
[04:09] (Flashback) L
    They don't bother you and the others?
[04:13] (Flashback) L
    Those... voices.
[04:18] Boy
    It hurts!
[04:22] Boy
    Mommy!
[04:22] Mom
    Be more careful!
[04:26] Mom
    Silly child.
[04:32] Kurena
    Even without Shin, Processors have to listen
    to dying screams all the time.
[04:38] Kurena
    And dying instantly when your Juggernaut explodes
    is one of the best ways to go.
[04:43] Kurena
    We've all seen our friends get their limbs
    blown off, their faces ripped to shreds,
[04:46] Kurena
    their bodies get burned all over, or their
    stomachs ripped open with guts pouring out,
[04:51] Kurena
    screaming in pain as they died.
[04:56] Kurena
    Compared to that,
    the voices of the long dead are nothing.
[05:02] Kurena
    Any of us could die at any time.
[05:17] L
    Good evening, everyone.
[05:19] Raiden
    I hear you loud and clear, Major.
[05:21] Raiden
    Sorry, it's just us guys here tonight.
[05:24] L
    Lieutenant Shuga?
[05:26] L
    Um, where's Captain Nouzen?
[05:29] L
    Did something happen in the battle today?
[05:31] Raiden
    No, he's just sleeping. He says he's tired.
[05:35] L
    I see.
[05:36] Raiden
    It happens sometimes.
[05:38] Raiden
    I... We don't know the truth.
[05:42] Raiden
    But it's probably exhausting.
    Never getting a break 24 hours a day.
[05:46] L
    Because of the voices of the Legion?
[05:48] Theo
    It's not something that
    you can do anything about.
[05:51] Theo
    We just get tired sometimes,
    being out here, is all.
[05:56] L
    He's tired, yes,
[05:58] L
    but the stress on all of you is increasing.
[06:01] L
    With all these casualties.
[06:04] Raiden
    Yeah.
[06:06] L
    You haven't been given one new member
    since I arrived.
[06:10] L
    I'll make it happen faster.
[06:12] L
    I'll do everything I can
    to make it a top priority.
[06:18] L
    Lieutenant Shuga?
[06:20] Raiden
    Yeah, that'd be good.
[06:22] L
    This unit is defending our most important base.
[06:25] L
    It has the right to receive reinforcements first.
[06:28] L
    Until then, I'll continue to request reinforcements
    from the surrounding units.
[06:33] L
    So please, hang in there a bit longer!
[06:36] Raiden
    Yeah.
[06:37] Theo
    Thanks, I guess.
[06:40] L
    Of course.

[06:46] Karlstahl
    So you decided to overstep yourself and
     complain directly to me, Major Milizé?
[06:52] L
    Sir, I can't wait any longer
    for replacements for Spearhead.
[06:58] L
    I'll do anything to help them,
[07:02] L
    even beg you for aid.
[07:07] L
    I've gone to every department
    for help, but...
[07:10] Karlstahl
    The resupply and Processor replacement plans
    for the Eastern Theater are a settled matter.
[07:16] Karlstahl
    I've already informed them of your request.
[07:20] Karlstahl
    You probably don't know,
    as it's still an internal matter.
[07:22] L
    Really?
[07:24] L
    We're finally getting supplies?
[07:25] Karlstahl
    So do your duty as best you can.
[07:30] Karlstahl
    Are you ready for the
     Revolution Festival party?
[07:35] Karlstahl
    Attend the party in a proper dress.
[07:38] Karlstahl
    Isn't that the real job of a
    daughter of the Milizé family?
[07:45] L
    Understood.
SIGN    August 25th, Stellar Year 2148
[07:51] A
    Lena, listen...
[07:55] A
    Why did you think
    that dress was a good choice?
[07:57] A
    It's pure black, like a mourning dress.
[08:00] L
    It's wonderful, isn't it?
[08:02] L
    Thanks to this, nobody's asking me to dance.
[08:05] A
    I agree this party is stupid and boring.
[08:09] A
    But that doesn't mean looking nice
    is a bad thing.
[08:12] L
    Well, I think this looks nice enough for me.
[08:15] A
    That's not the issue.
[08:17] ---
    What's wrong?
[08:18] L
    One of my fiancés is over there—
    the one who sent me those fancy new sweets!
[08:22] L
    See you later, Lena!
[08:31] S
    Major.
[08:32] L
    Is something wrong, Captain Nouzen?
    Is it the Legion?
[08:36] S
    No, you didn't call at the usual time,
    so I thought I'd check in.
[08:40] S
    Is everything okay?
[08:42] S
    If you're busy,
    I can contact you another day.
[08:46] L
    I'm fine.
[08:52] L
    Sorry, this is the time
    when I always call, isn't it?
[08:56] L
    What's wrong?
[08:58] S
    I wanted to let you know that
    the special ammunition arrived.
[09:05] L
    It got there safely, huh?
[09:06] S
    Yes. Thank you for the fireworks.
[09:10] L
    Well, it's the Revolution Festival after all.
[09:12] L
    You saw them with your brother
    and parents once, right?
[09:15] L
    I'm sure the others have similar memories.
[09:18] S
    It's a Revolution Festival tradition, huh?
[09:21] S
    Can you see the fireworks
    from the Palace Luñè where you are?
[09:24] ---
    Um...
[09:27] L
    I can.
[09:28] L
    But the sky's too bright.
[09:33] L
    I'm sure the fireworks
    where you're at are beautiful.
[09:36] L
    The night is dark, and the air is clean.
[09:41] L
    I wish we could see them—
[09:45] L
    Someday, let's all watch the fireworks
    in District 1 together.
[09:49] L
    I'm sure you'll laugh.
[09:51] S
    I don't remember them being that bad.
[09:54] S
    Then see for yourself.
[09:56] S
    When the war's over...
    When you leave the army,
[09:58] S
    we can all watch them together.
[10:02] S
    I wish Lieutenant Irma and the others
    could've seen them, too.
[10:05] S
    Sorry, my timing was bad again, huh?
[10:09] S
    No, this is the first time we've ever been able
    to give them a proper gun salute.
[10:13] S
    I'm sure they're pleased.
[10:15] S
    They never liked the mushy stuff.
[10:18] L
    I see.
[10:23] S
    And...
[10:24] S
    Anju was finally able to cry,
    just a bit ago.
[10:27] S
    She's the type to keep things
    to herself, so that meant a lot.
[10:33] L
    She won't forget Lieutenant Irma.
[10:36] S
    None of us will.
[10:38] S
    You remember my brother, right?
[10:43] S
    That made me happy.
[10:46] S
    Because I wasn't able to remember him.
[10:50] L
    Captain Nouzen...
[10:55] S
    Will you remember us as well, Major?
[11:09] L
    Of course I will.
[11:11] L
    But...
[11:13] L
    Before that, I won't let you die.
[11:18] L
    I won't let anyone else die.

    Hey, Eighty-Six.
[11:33] Soldier
    This one, too.
[11:34] Soldier
    It's a present from your master, supposedly.
[11:38] Soldier
    As if a pig deserves a present

    What's up?
[11:55] Raiden
    What's up, Shin?
[11:56] Raiden
    What is this?
[11:57] ---
    Fireworks?
[11:57] Theo
    So many...
[11:58] Theo
    From the Major? Wow!
[12:03] Kurena
    Hey, Anju, um...
[12:05] Anju
    What is it?
[12:07] Kurena
    I'm wondering if we can tell her.
[12:11] Kurena
    She's sending us, like,
    presents and stuff now.
[12:15] Anju
    Are you worried about her?
[12:16] Kurena
    No! Why would I be worried about her?
[12:20] Kurena
    But, um...
[12:21] Kurena
    She wasn't scared of Shin.
    So I think it'd be okay.
[12:26] Kurena
    That's all.
[12:29] Kurena
    Shin and Raiden, the others...
[12:31] Kurena
    None of them are saying anything about it.
[12:36] Kurena
    If we told her, she'd stop calling.
[12:39] Kurena
    And that'd be better for all of us.
[12:42] Anju
    Yeah...
[12:44] Anju
    I remember what Kaie said to her...
[12:48] Kurena
    She's not a bad person,
    so she shouldn't get involved with us.
[12:52] Anju
    I think that's why Shin and Raiden
    can't bring themselves to say it.
[12:57] Anju
    They think it'd hurt her.
[13:07] Kurena
    Anju, are you okay?
[13:10] Anju
    With what?
[13:11] Kurena
    You've never taken a shower
    with anyone before.
[13:16] Anju
    I think it's okay now, honestly.
[13:20] Anju
    It's just the two of us.
    There's no need to hide it.
[13:25] Anju
    Daiya... said I had pretty hair
    when we first met.
[13:32] Anju
    He knew I was growing my hair out to hide it,
[13:35] Anju
    but he asked if I was growing out my hair
    because it was so pretty.
[13:41] Anju
    Daiya's gone now.
[13:44] Anju
    So I think it's silly to keep worrying about it.
[13:50] Anju
    What about you? Don't you want to tell her?
[13:57] Kurena
    No.
[13:59] Kurena
    I don't think I have the right.
[14:20] Kurena
    Even if we die,
    our Reaper will take us there.
[14:30] Kurena
    I know he'll take me there, but...
[14:36] Kurena
    But then, what about Shin?
[14:39] Kurena
    Who will carry his heart?

    Undertaker, report.
[14:52] S
    All personnel are ready to begin the attack
    on the Legion forward base.
[14:56] S
    Don't forget. The base is a decoy.
[14:59] S
    Watch for the ambushers
    in the surrounding area.
[15:01] S
    When we've lured them out of their holes,
    two teams from the Fourth Platoon will attack.
[15:26] L
    A-Analysis complete!
    Launch point is 120 kilometers east-northeast.
[15:30] L
    Estimated speed at launch is...
    4000 meters per second?
[15:34] L
    It's an ultra-long range artillery cannon.
    One we've never seen before!
[15:43] L
    I'm calling off the mission!
[15:44] L
    Retreat, please! Retreat!
[15:48] S
    Roger.
[16:06] Raiden
    Seems that we shook off our pursuers.
[16:09] L
    I-I'll get you more personnel!
    I'll make it happen today!
[16:13] S
    Major.
[16:15] L
    This doesn't make any sense!
[16:17] L
    The General said that they already had a plan
    to bring in replacements.
[16:20] S
    Major Milizé!
[16:23] S
    Everyone, you're okay with it, right?
[16:27] Raiden
    Yeah.
[16:32] L
    Wh-What?
[16:35] Raiden
    Major, that's enough.
[16:37] Raiden
    Nothing you do will change a thing.
[16:40] S
    Captain Nouzen, what are you saying?
[16:42] L
    No replacements are coming.
[16:44] L
    Not a single one. Ever.
[16:47] S
    We're going to be wiped out.
[16:49] S
    This unit is an execution ground.
[16:59] L
    Wh-What are you saying?
[17:02] Anju
    The "replacements" you were just talking about
    are the Processors that come after us.
[17:07] Theo
    She means, "After we're dead."
[17:10] Theo
    We just got some brand-new Juggernauts.
[17:14] Theo
    Those are for them.
[17:17] Raiden
    The white pigs don't intend to let a
    single Eighty-Six out of the 86th District.
[17:23] Theo
    They conscript us with that
     "five years and you're out" thing as bait.
[17:29] Theo
    Then they get us killed.
[17:32] Theo
    They really are pigs. It's terrible.
[17:34] L
    That... That's impossible!
[17:37] Raiden
    The vast majority of Processors die
    before their term is up.
[17:41] Raiden
    It doesn't matter what you say
     will happen after their term.
[17:44] Raiden
    It's when you've got guys like us,
[17:47] Raiden
    who manage to survive for years on a battlefield
    where death is certain.
[17:51] Theo
    The fact that we survived means we're smart,
[17:53] Theo
    and the other Eighty-Six look up to us as heroes.
[17:56] Theo
    They can't have us leading a rebellion.
[17:59] Theo
    So anyone like that is sent
    to the worst of the fighting,
[18:04] Theo
    to die there.
[18:06] Theo
    And those who still don't die, end up here.
[18:11] Theo
    Combat District 1, Unit 1, Spearhead.
[18:14] Raiden
    The point of this place is
    to make the soldiers fight until they die.
[18:19] Raiden
    This is the last place we'll serve.
[18:22] Raiden
    We'll all die here.
[18:25] Theo
    Only after the last one is dead
    will replacements come.
[18:29] Theo
    The next group,
    awaiting their own executions.
[18:32] L
    So we're not making you fight to protect us,
    but just to kill you?
[18:37] L
    That's nothing but slaughter!
[18:41] L
    Did you all know...
[18:43] Anju
    Yes, I'm sorry.
[18:45] L
    Since when?
[18:47] Kurena
    From the start.
[18:48] Kurena
    Nobody who went to war,
    not my sister or anybody else, came back.
[18:54] Kurena
    And we weren't allowed out of the camps.
[18:57] Kurena
    We all knew from the start
    that white pigs don't keep their promises.
[19:02] L
    If you knew, then why did you fight?
[19:05] L
    Why not run...
    or try to get revenge on the Republic?
[19:11] Raiden
    Revenge wouldn't even be hard.
[19:14] Raiden
    We'd just have to sit back
    and let the Legion through.
[19:17] Raiden
    We'd die, of course,
    but we could take the white pigs with us.
[19:23] L
    Then why?
[19:27] Raiden
    Until I was twelve, an old
    Alba woman in District 9 looked after me.
[19:32] Raiden
    Shin was raised by an Alba priest,
[19:34] Raiden
    who refused to give up his land
    and was sent to the camps.
[19:38] Raiden
    Theo told you before about his captain.
[19:42] Raiden
    Kurena knows the very worst of the Alba.
[19:46] Raiden
    Of course, we all know how awful
    the white pigs can be, but...
[19:52] Raiden
    There are also people like Kaie,
[19:54] Raiden
    who were abused by other Eighty-Six
    because of the color of their skin.
[19:59] Raiden
    Anju, Haruto, and Shin have white pig
    or imperial blood. They're the same.
[20:04] Raiden
    There are scum like that
    among the Eighty-Six, too.
[20:07] Raiden
    And there were a lot of proud Eighty-Six
    who fought to the very end.
[20:16] Raiden
    Even if most Alba are scum,
[20:18] Raiden
    some of you said there wasn't
     any reason to just let us die.
[20:21] Raiden
    And not all Eighty-Six are good.
[20:26] Raiden
    And so we all decided which we wanted to be.
[20:34] Raiden
    Just because scum treats you like scum,
[20:36] Raiden
    doing the same makes you no better.
[20:39] Raiden
    If the only two paths are to die
    fighting the Legion, or to die giving up,
[20:43] Raiden
    we'll survive to the last moment
    and go down fighting.
[20:47] Raiden
    That's the reason we fight.
[20:49] Raiden
    That's the source of our pride.
[20:51] Raiden
    If that means protecting the white pigs,
    well, that's not ideal,
[20:55] Raiden
    but it's fine with me.
[21:01] L
    Even if you know that at the end, you'll die?
[21:07] Raiden
    Is there anybody stupid enough to hang themselves
    because they know they'll die tomorrow?
[21:11] Raiden
    Even if you know
    you're going to the gallows,
[21:13] Raiden
    you can choose
    how you're going to climb up there.
[21:16] Raiden
    We've made our choice.
[21:19] Raiden
    All we have to do now is survive.
