[00:24] ---
    Excellent.
[00:26] ---
    Very cute.
[00:30] ---
    Very soon, you will
    go outside on your own.
[00:34] ---
    Shinobu?
[00:35] ---
    Remember, when you want to,
    you should lick these.
[00:40] ---
    Also, one other thing...
[00:47] ---
    Misaka Mikoto.
[00:50] ---
    Remember that name.
[00:52] ---
    Misaka...?
[00:54] ---
    It was that decision
    that started everything.
[00:58] ---
    Will I...
[01:01] ---
    ...arrive at the correct
    answer this time?
[01:07] ---
    Good grief, what a
    problem sister she is.
[01:22] ---
    Hmph, some uninvited
    guests to the party?
[01:26] ---
    But then, in the face
    of 20,000 powered suits,
[01:29] ---
    exactly what can you
    do with your numbers?
[01:32] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting, Mii.
[01:35] ---
    You're late...
[01:37] ---
    ...guys!
[01:38] ---
    Wha--?
[01:39] ---
    Who are these guys?!
[01:40] ---
    "Big boobs"
[01:42] ---
    All who disrupt the public
    morals of Academy City...
[01:44] ---
    And all who pick on Febrie...
[01:47] ---
    ...by the mark of this shield...
[01:50] ---
    ...you will surely
    not be tolerated!
[01:53] ---
    Don't go getting
    too full of yourself,
[01:56] ---
    because you've got Antiskill
    wrapped around your finger!
[01:58] ---
    Okay, today we'll do
    this Shirai-style!
[02:01] ---
    Huh?
[02:04] ---
    Judgment!
[02:06] ---
    Hey!
[02:09] ---
    Mikoto?
[02:11] ---
    Mm-mm, it's nothing.
[02:14] ---
    I'll be counting on all of you.
[02:29] ---
    Okay, come and get it!
    I, Sissy's shotgun rider, Shirai Kuroko,
[02:34] ---
    will not allow you
    to take one step farther!
[02:40] ---
    You're up!
[02:42] ---
    Tank squads E and F
    come around to the left flank!
[02:45] ---
    Squads J through M,
    switch off! Let's go!
[02:49] ---
    Don't get in too deep!
[02:50] ---
    Our objective is
    to keep these things
[02:52] ---
    from leaving
    the premises, after all!
[02:56] ---
    And then...!
[02:58] ---
    Misaka will come up with something!
[03:01] ---
    To that end,
    we'll take advantage of the fact
[03:03] ---
    that these things are running
    with simple programming!
[03:07] ---
    In other words,
    once you have a target...
[03:10] ---
    ...it's a matter of
    keeping tight hate control.
[03:13] ---
    Whoa!
[03:14] ---
    Awesome!
[03:14] ---
    A combination water-current-control
    and buoyancy-control move!
[03:18] ---
    Miss Kongo!
[03:20] ---
    You couldn't lay
    a hand on my friends...
[03:24] ---
    ...in a hundred years!
[03:28] ---
    There's no way you're getting by!
[03:29] ---
    That's right!
[03:30] ---
    This is to help Febrie!
    It's also, after all, a favor...
[03:35] ---
    ...to Misaka!
[03:42] ---
    I am kicking it up a notch today!
[03:46] ---
    Shirai!
[03:48] ---
    Because today,
[03:50] ---
    I am together...
[03:52] ---
    ...with Sissy!
[03:56] ---
    They're better than I expected.
[03:58] ---
    Hey,
[03:59] ---
    our attrition rate is less than 2%.
[04:02] ---
    More importantly, where is Railgun?
[04:05] ---
    Once you find her, turn Kosako
    and Madarame loose on her.
[04:08] ---
    Nunotaba! I'm increasing
    Janie's operating ratio!
[04:11] ---
    Keep everything regulated!
[04:14] ---
    Why did I give Febrie her name then?
[04:19] ---
    Is it because I believed in her?
[04:23] ---
    No, that's not why.
[04:26] ---
    I'm sure it... must have been...
[04:29] ---
    What's that?!
[04:30] ---
    Intruders?! Is that...
[04:33] ---
    Railgun?!
[04:37] ---
    H-How did she find this place?!
[04:40] ---
    Why, that...!
[04:43] ---
    Hey there, Railgun.
[04:46] ---
    What can I say?
[04:47] ---
    You've gone and negotiated
    an invitation behind our backs.
[04:56] ---
    Wha--?
[04:57] ---
    Shinobu? Shinobu!
[05:00] ---
    But now that you're here,
    you leave us little choice.
[05:03] ---
    Please accept our hospitality.
[05:15] ---
    Just bear with this for a bit.
    We'll be seeing her soon enough.
[05:21] ---
    The espers' greatest weakness has to be
[05:24] ---
    that they are humans who become fatigued.
[05:27] ---
    And your case is no different.
[05:30] ---
    I don't care if you are an esper,
[05:32] ---
    when you're outnumbered by
    this much mass, I will definitely win!
[05:36] ---
    You're right...
[05:37] ---
    If I was all on my own,
    this could have been difficult.
[05:42] ---
    However,
[05:43] ---
    right now, things are different!
[05:46] ---
    All of us...
[05:49] ---
    ...are fighting alongside each other!
[06:19] ---
    Incredible...
[06:21] ---
    We've planned for all of this!
    Activate scenario B-7.
[06:26] ---
    Send Kosako and Madarame, too!
[06:30] ---
    Squads A and B,
    hang in there just a bit longer.
[06:32] ---
    Attacker espers,
    go once again from the left flank--
[06:37] ---
    Okay, next...
[06:39] ---
    What do we do?
    We can't get through to the others!
[06:42] ---
    Signal interference?
[06:44] ---
    I knew this would be coming.
[06:45] ---
    W-What do we do? The commands
    to my security robots aren't...
[06:49] ---
    Really, what do we do?
[06:52] ---
    You see? It's like we said.
[06:54] ---
    No matter how
    far we've developed,
[06:57] ---
    this is what happens
    when we become robots
[06:59] ---
    who leave everything up to espers.
[07:01] ---
    I really wish we could have
    gone up against Railgun, but...
[07:06] ---
    ...what are you going to do?
[07:39] ---
    You seem quite worn out, Railgun.
[07:42] ---
    However, our hospitality is
    just getting underway.
[07:48] ---
    These are equipped with
    weapons we made after analyzing
[07:51] ---
    Academy City's fourth-ranked esper.
[07:55] ---
    I guess you could call
    it a pseudo-Meltdowner.
[07:58] ---
    Have yourself a nice, thorough taste.
[08:04] ---
    Uiharu?!
[08:05] ---
    I'm all right. Miss Saten--
[08:07] ---
    Behind you!
[08:15] ---
    Sorry to keep you.
[08:17] ---
    Your friend asked
    me to bring this along.
[08:19] ---
    What is it?
[08:21] ---
    Let us handle contacting the other sites!
[08:24] ---
    Miss Haru'ue!
[08:25] ---
    Banri is helping out now, too.
[08:27] ---
    We're making a network of telepaths.
[08:31] ---
    I thought something like this might happen.
[08:33] ---
    Sorry about this.
[08:33] ---
    Everything they do follows the same pattern.
[08:34] ---
    Not at all.
[08:35] ---
    Being able to help out
    Judgment is like a dream come true!
[08:40] ---
    "Be ye prepared,
    and have no regrets," indeed!
[08:43] ---
    This is what that means!
[08:45] ---
    Miss Saten, where's the manual?
[08:47] ---
    For the moment, it's inside my head.
[08:51] ---
    Mostly.
[08:52] ---
    Okay then, here goes!
[08:56] ---
    This is the variable-form
    large-scale general-purpose
[08:59] ---
    operating machine, built
    with all the technology possessed
[09:02] ---
    by Kongo Airlines' Academy
    City Metalworks Plant No. 2--
[09:06] ---
    W-What is that thing?!
[09:08] ---
    It's name...
[09:10] ---
    ...is Ecaterina II! Upgrade!
[09:14] ---
    That's what she calls it!
[09:17] ---
    Whoa! Leave it to you, Uiharu!
[09:19] ---
    You're sure fired up today.
[09:22] ---
    All right! I'm getting fired up, too!
[09:26] ---
    It's fast!
[09:28] ---
    Game-winning punch!!
[09:30] ---
    Whoa, Miss Saten!
[09:33] ---
    Fire!
[09:39] ---
    Wha--?
[09:40] ---
    For Pete's sake,
    the real thing is nothing like this!
[09:45] ---
    Wha--?
[09:48] ---
    Damn!
[09:49] ---
    Lousy espers!
[09:50] ---
    Ruining our sublime revolution!
[09:51] ---
    Miss Saten, I'm taking over control!
[09:53] ---
    Okay!
[09:56] ---
    I'm a Level 0, you know!
[10:04] ---
    Sheesh...
[10:06] ---
    What was that
    messed-up light just now?!
[10:15] ---
    Damn it, what are
    you moving on your own for,
[10:18] ---
    Whoa! Just like our intel said!
[10:19] ---
    you decrepit piece of junk?!
[10:20] ---
    It really is copying Mugino.
    That's just asking for it.
[10:28] ---
    This is an ultra-complex situation.
    What on earth is this?
[10:32] ---
    Who knows?
[10:34] ---
    So all of those fool's errands
    we've been hired for lately
[10:37] ---
    were to this end, were they?
[10:38] ---
    Ah, damn it! They took advantage
    of us and then collected data!
[10:43] ---
    It's a disgrace!!
[10:47] ---
    Whoo-hoo!
[10:48] ---
    Ultra-pretty.
[10:50] ---
    Say, Mugino, over there a moment ago...
[10:52] ---
    Hmph!
[10:53] ---
    We don't have time to waste on
    a brat who won't learn her lesson!
[11:01] ---
    Say, those people earlier...
[11:03] ---
    Oh, those guys?
[11:05] ---
    Don't make eye contact with them.
[11:07] ---
    Let's hurry!
[11:12] ---
    Madarame!
[11:13] ---
    Kosako! Come in!
[11:15] ---
    We're not reading
    anything from above, either.
[11:17] ---
    Not yet!
[11:19] ---
    It's not as though
    we've been beaten yet!
[11:22] ---
    But you have been beaten.
[11:23] ---
    You!
[11:25] ---
    Hurry up and stop everything,
    and let Janie go.
[11:29] ---
    Shinobu!
[11:31] ---
    Febrie...
[11:32] ---
    I'm here, just like I promised.
[11:36] ---
    Once again, the espers
    exult in their victory.
[11:40] ---
    Aritomi! Is that...?
[11:42] ---
    Code input confirmed. Initiating final phase.
[11:47] ---
    Janie?!
[11:50] ---
    Eh?
[11:52] ---
    Oh, my...
[11:52] ---
    They stopped?
[11:54] ---
    Sissy...
[11:55] ---
    H-H-How could you do this?!
[11:57] ---
    Don't tell me you're really going to do it!
[12:00] ---
    You're setting the system to a runaway state?
[12:02] ---
    If I force the connection
    to break, she will die.
[12:04] ---
    Wha--?
[12:05] ---
    The final phase is
    also known as the last resort.
[12:10] ---
    I'm turning everything,
    Academy City and all, to ashes!
[12:14] ---
    Just what are you planning to do?!
[12:19] ---
    Do you think I will tell you?
[12:21] ---
    Huh?
[12:22] ---
    Aritomi!
[12:23] ---
    With the time you have left,
    g-go ahead and tremble and die!
[12:29] ---
    No!
[12:30] ---
    It's still no use.
[12:33] ---
    What I have to do is never...
[12:47] ---
    Wha--?
[12:53] ---
    Killing yourself to get out of this...
[12:58] ---
    I'm not going to make it so easy.
[13:01] ---
    There was once someone
    who had plenty of power,
[13:04] ---
    but reached out for even more.
[13:08] ---
    Meanwhile, there was someone like you,
[13:11] ---
    who was pessimistic
    about her lack of ability,
[13:13] ---
    and did inhuman
    things in order to gain power.
[13:18] ---
    There were also some girls who
    thought of themselves as mere tools,
[13:22] ---
    and quietly accepted their cruel fate.
[13:27] ---
    Then there was a fool,
    who was possessed of the ridiculous idea
[13:32] ---
    that she could give her
    life if it would protect those girls.
[13:36] ---
    But stronger or weaker, higher or lower,
[13:41] ---
    nothing like that mattered.
    I made a promise to them--
[13:46] ---
    that I would help Febrie,
    and protect the city, no matter what!
[13:50] ---
    And for me to do that,
[13:52] ---
    I'll even save the likes of you!
[13:57] ---
    So that's it.
[13:58] ---
    Now, what do we have to do
[14:00] ---
    to make the final phase
    come to a stop? Answer me!
[14:00] ---
    This is why...
[14:03] ---
    I... believed in you...
[14:07] ---
    W-Well...
[14:10] ---
    You know that it's
    too late to stop it now!
[14:14] ---
    The final phase is to have 5,000 filaments
[14:16] ---
    scattered in the skies over Academy City,
[14:18] ---
    have the Diffusion Ghost
    ability run out of control,
[14:21] ---
    and trigger a decay chain
    in the AIM diffusion fields
[14:24] ---
    that fill Academy City!
[14:27] ---
    The launch mechanism is inside
    some construction equipment,
[14:29] ---
    operating in stationary
    orbit 35,000 kilometers up.
[14:33] ---
    The missile has already been launched.
[14:35] ---
    Every second, it travels seven
    kilometers closer to Academy City.
[14:40] ---
    There's absolutely nobody,
    not even you, who can stop it now!
[14:46] ---
    You're right. I probably can't stop it.
[14:51] ---
    Not by myself.
[14:54] ---
    A missile?!
[14:55] ---
    Oh, no...
[14:56] ---
    Please give me its specifications
    and orbital elements!
[14:57] ---
    It's Ruiko! Shinobu, this is
    Ruiko, and this is Whee-ha.
[14:59] ---
    I'll try to find a way!
[15:00] ---
    Just a moment.
[15:01] ---
    There are quite a few science
    students inside Judgment.
[15:04] ---
    I'll ask around.
[15:05] ---
    Please do!
[15:05] ---
    I-I'll see what I can do, too...
[15:07] ---
    Huh? Does Febrie look flushed to anyone?
[15:09] ---
    Huh? Febrie, where's your candy?
[15:12] ---
    I finished it.
[15:14] ---
    Sissy! Any left?
[15:16] ---
    This was the last one!
[15:17] ---
    Oh, no!
[15:19] ---
    Let me handle that.
[15:22] ---
    It's not about whether I can or
    whether I can't right?
[15:26] ---
    I'll give it a try--
[15:29] ---
    the thing you told me that
    nobody else could do.
[15:36] ---
    Aw... man!
[15:39] ---
    Miss Uiharu?
[15:40] ---
    What's the matter?
[15:41] ---
    Using Judgments' system,
    not only is there no way to intercept it,
[15:44] ---
    I can't even compute its orbit!
[15:46] ---
    But with a machine having specs that high,
    something so simple should be...
[15:50] ---
    "I have heard what is happening.
    It looks like it's finally my turn,"
[15:54] ---
    says Misaka, appearing with superb timing.
[15:59] ---
    When the missile's warhead
    reaches an altitude of 30,000 meters,
[16:03] ---
    it is designed to split
    into 5,000 micro-warheads.
[16:07] ---
    Once that happens, it is too late!
[16:09] ---
    Which means that it must be
    shot down before that can happen.
[16:14] ---
    The only way that that is possible...
[16:21] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting, Febrie!
[16:23] ---
    Ruiko?
[16:26] ---
    Thank goodness.
[16:27] ---
    This will buy us a little time.
[16:29] ---
    It was right where that man
    Aritomi said they were.
[16:32] ---
    Also... in order to free Janie
    from the runaway system,
[16:37] ---
    we're going to need Febrie's help.
[16:39] ---
    Right now, she's in a state
    where she will accept no outside input,
[16:43] ---
    but if we effect a strong
    emotional bias from Febrie,
[16:46] ---
    who is basically identical to her...
[16:48] ---
    That makes sense. In other words,
    "Love gets through," right?
[16:52] ---
    Huh? Y-Yes, well...
[16:56] ---
    I had Miss Kongo rig the airframe
    so that all 8,092 jet points
[17:00] ---
    will activate to a precision
    of 1/1,000th of a second.
[17:05] ---
    Theoretically, this should work.
[17:07] ---
    But how did you get this complex
    calculation done in so short a time?
[17:12] ---
    Oh, well, you know...
[17:16] ---
    Sorry, Kuroko.
[17:18] ---
    I ended up having you
    tag along with me this far.
[17:22] ---
    What are you talking about?
[17:24] ---
    Nothing could make me prouder
[17:27] ---
    than having you count
    on me here and now, Sissy.
[17:37] ---
    Thanks.
[17:54] ---
    They're in sync!
[17:55] ---
    Febrie, please!
[17:57] ---
    Febrie...
[18:01] ---
    Big Sister, it's Febrie!
[18:04] ---
    And this is Gekota. He's my
    friend. You know what?
[18:09] ---
    Please. I know that at this
    point, it's too much to ask for.
[18:14] ---
    But even so, please, let her
    respond to her feelings!
[18:26] ---
    And also, hamburger is so delicious!
[18:27] ---
    This processing speed can't keep up.
[18:30] ---
    Ah, and taking baths feels so good!
[18:30] ---
    What's that? Access from outside?
[18:33] ---
    "I will give you a hand," says Misaka,
[18:36] ---
    seeking retroactive approval
    while already lending a hand.
[18:40] ---
    Why...?
[18:42] ---
    As thanks for the fragments of
    our mind we received from you.
[18:46] ---
    Your... mind?
[18:48] ---
    This Misaka's serial number is #19090.
[18:54] ---
    You mean, what I did earlier reached you?
[18:59] ---
    Yes. Moreover...
[19:04] ---
    ...those two's thought base
    program is identical to the Misakas'.
[19:08] ---
    Which means, those girls
    are just like the Misaka sisters.
[19:12] ---
    "Does an older sister need a
    reason to help out a younger sister?"
[19:16] ---
    asks Misaka, trying to
    adopt the air of an older sister.
[19:38] ---
    We want her to know, as well...
[19:51] ---
    ...how bright and beautiful...
[19:55] ---
    ...the world really is...
[20:10] ---
    Good morning, Big Sister.
[20:15] ---
    Shinobu!
[20:16] ---
    Big Sister woke up!
[20:18] ---
    Yes...
[20:24] ---
    Good morning,
[20:26] ---
    Janie.
[20:29] ---
    Go on, Febrie. Don't you have
    something to give her?
[20:32] ---
    Huh? Oh!
[20:34] ---
    Here!
[20:36] ---
    This is something I'm giving to
    Big Sister and you, Shinobu!
[20:40] ---
    It's something that I made!
[20:44] ---
    For me...
[20:46] ---
    ...too?
[20:52] ---
    Shinobu?
[20:54] ---
    There are a lot of things that
    I want to have you see, too.
[21:14] ---
    Thank you for waiting.
[21:16] ---
    We would now like to open this year's
[21:18] ---
    Academy City Research Assembly.
[21:26] ---
    "Academy City School District 23"
    "Kongo Airlines Test Site"
[21:33] ---
    Febrie is doing so well!
[21:36] ---
    Geez, Miss Saten, you promised
    me you weren't going to cry!
[21:40] ---
    Ruiko, Whee-ha, don't cry.
[21:44] ---
    Here, Miss Janie.
[21:46] ---
    It's a good luck charm.
    One that is tremendously effective.
[21:52] ---
    So then, overseas research
    organizations will be examining
[21:55] ---
    and reconditioning
    the two of them, huh?
[21:57] ---
    That's too bad, now that
    everyone is such good friends.
[22:01] ---
    It's an impossibly generous treatment.
[22:03] ---
    It's almost like the record of the events
[22:06] ---
    has been completely rewritten in our favor.
[22:09] ---
    R-Really?
[22:10] ---
    Electronic records are... well,
[22:13] ---
    I think you get the idea.
[22:15] ---
    It's just that I get the feeling
    that part of the human memories
[22:18] ---
    have been doctored, as well.
[22:21] ---
    Oh, um...
[22:23] ---
    Well, if you put aside
    pride and other factors,
[22:26] ---
    something like that might
    not be impossible... maybe...
[22:30] ---
    Probably...
[22:35] ---
    Now it's my turn, huh?
[22:37] ---
    It's all right. I'm sure I can do this.
[22:41] ---
    I'm no longer alone, after all.
[22:46] ---
    Right.
[22:48] ---
    Yeah.
[23:27] ---
    Well, shall we get going?
[23:29] ---
    If we leave now, we'll be in
    time for afternoon lectures.
[23:32] ---
    Yes, we will.
[23:33] ---
    I think I'll buy some lunch somewhere.
[23:37] ---
    There really never
    is a dull moment, huh?
[23:40] ---
    Not when we're with you, Misaka!
[23:40] ---
    Not when we are with you, Sissy!
[23:43] ---
    Hey, what do you mean by that?
[23:45] ---
    Ah, are you all ready for
    the regional field trip?
[23:48] ---
    Is that tomorrow, already?
[23:50] ---
    Liberal Arts City, huh?
    I can't wait!
[23:53] ---
    Hey, come on!
    What did you mean by that?!
