[00:24] ---
    Don't.
[00:27] ---
    That is far enough.
    Do not touch Her Highness,
[00:34] ---
    ...Orange.
[00:44] ---
    Bat...
[01:05] ---
    Andalusia Leader to all units.
    Target the transport only.

[01:10] ---
    Even if they launch Kataphrakts,
    do not engage.

[01:13] ---
    We will use Kaufmann 6 as an anchor
    to perform wire swingby

[01:17] ---
    and return to Trident Base.
[01:19] ---
    Good hunting, people.
[01:21] ---
    Roger that.
[01:29] ---
    Target located.
[01:30] ---
    All units, commence attack.
[01:42] ---
    Wind's too strong...
    Our rounds are drifting!
[01:49] ---
    Stay calm! They're in
    the same boat!
[01:51] ---
    Hit 'em before they can get close!
[01:53] ---
    Multiple high-density satellites!
[01:55] ---
    We can't hit them at this range!
[01:57] ---
    Don't hold back on the bullets! Keep firing!
[02:03] ---
    Andalusia 33, I'm hit!
[02:06] ---
    Damage minor! Continuing missi–
[02:09] ---
    Andalusia 33!
[02:13] ---
    Andalusia 22!
[02:15] ---
    That's not possible!
[02:16] ---
    How can he land any shots in this wind?
[02:20] ---
    What in the world?
[02:22] ---
    Intense thermal reading approaching!
[02:24] ---
    An enemy?
[02:25] ---
    No, sir!
[02:27] ---
    That's...
[02:29] ---
    The Tharsis!
[02:32] ---
    Please get clear. I'll handle them.
[02:35] ---
    Sir Slaine Troyard...
[02:42] ---
    Andalusia 11!
[02:45] ---
    Bastard!
[02:51] ---
    I'm not hitting... I'm this close,
    so how can that be?!
[03:04] ---
    The blessings of my lady, Princess
    Royal Asseylum, are upon me.
[03:08] ---
    Slaine Troyard has come.
[03:16] ---
    Ever since I was young,
    I idolized Earth.
[03:20] ---
    Its blue seas. Its blue skies.
[03:24] ---
    That world has the privilege of
    water and air and sunlight,
[03:26] ---
    and is blessed with an abundance
    of life and natural resources.
[03:31] ---
    I once lost my life
    on that world of Earth.
[03:35] ---
    And then, my eyes were
    opened to the truth.
[03:39] ---
    How outrageous it was for the Terrans
[03:40] ---
    to live among that bounty
    without appreciating it.
[03:45] ---
    A foolish race that covets
    resources, destroys nature,
[03:48] ---
    and is devoted to the
    pursuit of pleasure.
[03:51] ---
    We mustn't allow them to have their way
    with this precious world of Earth.
[03:55] ---
    I, Asseylum Vers Allusia,
    Princess Royal of the Vers Empire,
[04:00] ---
    praise and commend all those
    Orbital Knights who have died
[04:05] ---
    in the name of that noble cause.
[04:11] ---
    What's the point of watching that
    pirate broadcast of theirs?
[04:14] ---
    I'm curious, that's all... I wonder
    what happened to the princess?
[04:20] ---
    Who knows?
[04:21] ---
    I thought she was
    on Earth's side.
[04:25] ---
    Who knows?
[04:29] ---
    Maybe she lost hope in there ever
    being a peaceful resolution.
[04:32] ---
    If there's fighting, it's only natural
    that she would side with Mars.
[04:36] ---
    She's a Martian, after all.
[04:40] ---
    Say, Inko...
[04:44] ---
    What is it, Inko?
[04:47] ---
    Oh, it's nothing. I was just thinking that
    this might be our last chance to relax.
[04:53] ---
    Yeah, we board the ship tomorrow
    and lift off the day after that.
[05:00] ---
    You sure it's not him
    you're thinking about?
[05:02] ---
    I-It's not! It's not like that!
[05:09] ---
    Don't just stand there, people!
    Are you training or aren't you?!
[05:13] ---
    Y-Yes, sir!
[05:15] ---
    We plan to be able to lift off
    the day after tomorrow.
[05:18] ---
    Troops whose arrival was delayed
    should be here by tomorrow.
[05:21] ---
    Are you referring to him?
[05:25] ---
    I wonder what the top
    brass are thinking?
[05:28] ---
    We'll essentially be going into
    battle with our vitals exposed.
[05:32] ---
    If those vitals are competent
    enough, it changes things.
[05:35] ---
    They're telling us to put it
    to effective use.
[05:40] ---
    Hard to believe we'll be fighting
    side by side again...
[05:44] ---
    You can say that again, ma'am.
[05:46] ---
    It's a miracle he made it back alive.
[06:02] ---
    That landing was so skillful, one would never
    guess we are in an uneven gravity field.
[06:06] ---
    Your skills have improved
    even more, Slaine.
[06:11] ---
    Your compliment honors me,
    Count Saazbaum.
[06:15] ---
    Granting you the title of knight
    was a wise decision.
[06:19] ---
    How did the battle go?
[06:20] ---
    I destroyed some four
    enemy units.
[06:22] ---
    Quite a coup, Milord Slaine.
[06:25] ---
    Stop that, Mr. Harklight.
[06:28] ---
    There's no need for
    "milord" with me.
[06:31] ---
    That won't do, Milord.
    I am your manservant.
[06:35] ---
    But you're older than I am, and...
[06:40] ---
    I'm a Terran.
[06:42] ---
    That does not change the fact
    that you are a knight, Milord.
[06:44] ---
    And I ask that you refrain from using
    "mister" with me, Milord Slaine.
[06:57] ---
    Enter.
[07:00] ---
    Pardon the interruption.
[07:06] ---
    You seem to be in good spirits,
[07:09] ---
    Princess Lemrina.
[07:11] ---
    I am weary, Count Saazbaum.
[07:14] ---
    How fares the world?
[07:17] ---
    The invasions of North and
    South America are complete,
[07:20] ---
    and their takeover is underway.
[07:22] ---
    As for Eurasia and the Far East,
    UEF counterattacks continue
[07:26] ---
    due to the surrender of the
    Landing Castles there.
[07:29] ---
    Will I be able to
    go down to Earth?
[07:32] ---
    We expect the UE
    to be exhausted soon.
[07:35] ---
    When that happens, you,
    who inherit the bloodline
[07:38] ---
    of the Emperor of Vers,
    will be installed as–
[07:40] ---
    Do not say that!
[07:43] ---
    Highness.
[07:47] ---
    Princess Lemrina.
[07:49] ---
    I have never been pleased with
    the blood flowing in my veins.
[07:55] ---
    On the contrary, I find it repugnant.
[07:57] ---
    Am I only being kept alive
    because of the value of my blood?
[08:02] ---
    To merely be a tool that
    exists to awaken Aldnoah.
[08:07] ---
    My apologies.
[08:09] ---
    No, I understand.
[08:12] ---
    It was you who extended the hand of
    friendship to me, Count Saazbaum.
[08:17] ---
    Even if I curse my blood,
    I am grateful to you.
[08:23] ---
    Slaine.
[08:24] ---
    Yes, Highness. What is it?
[08:26] ---
    Will you teach me of Earth again?
[08:30] ---
    Gladly.
[08:33] ---
    Looks like we're together
    again for a while, huh?
[08:35] ---
    Yeah...
[08:37] ---
    I hope we make it back alive.
[08:41] ---
    Yeah...
[08:42] ---
    We're not going to die.
[08:44] ---
    We'll beat the Martians.
[08:46] ---
    We'll beat them and restore
    peace on Earth. Period.
[08:52] ---
    We don't have time to die.
[08:57] ---
    I guess not.
[09:01] ---
    Surprise attack!
    It's a Martian Kataphrakt!
[09:03] ---
    Radar return confirmed, south-southwest,
    20 klicks. Closing at 50kph.
[09:08] ---
    All hands to battle stations.
    We're leaving the dock.
[09:11] ---
    But the antigravity device
    is being serviced!
[09:14] ---
    Sorry I'm late!
[09:16] ---
    What on Earth are you wearing?
[09:18] ---
    Where is the uniform you
    were supplied with?
[09:21] ---
    Well... it wasn't very cute.
[09:24] ---
    Wasn't–
[09:26] ---
    Fine. It won't hinder her ability to
    helm the ship, so I'll authorize it.
[09:30] ---
    Captain!
[09:31] ---
    Mizusaki, shall I tell you
    why you can't get a date?
[09:37] ---
    Deucalion, activate! Kataphrakt squadron,
    launch all operational units!
[10:07] ---
    Any enemy intel?
[10:09] ---
    Count Yacoym's Kataphrakt, Frozen Elysium.
[10:13] ---
    Its Aldnoah Drive's unique capability
    is Entropy Dilution.
[10:19] ---
    Entro-what?
[10:20] ---
    It saps the molecular motion of all matter
    inside a field 1km in radius.
[10:25] ---
    It creates super-low temperatures that can
    transform the air and freeze it.
[10:30] ---
    All right, Terrans. show me how
    you defy the power of Aldnoah!
[10:36] ---
    At its current rate of speed, it'll reach
    the Deucalion's dock in 15 minutes.

[10:41] ---
    We have to slow it
    down somehow...
[10:43] ---
    Slow it down?
    You must be joking.

[10:46] ---
    We're going to destroy it.
[10:49] ---
    This is Harbinger Platoon. Target spotted.
[10:52] ---
    We're going in
    in cold-weather mode.
[10:54] ---
    Turbine output to maximum. De-icers, on.
[10:58] ---
    Commence attack.
[11:11] ---
    What's that?
[11:14] ---
    The de-icers aren't working? Impossible!
[11:18] ---
    You are helpless before it.
[11:20] ---
    It is not for nothing that
    its name is Frozen Elysium.
[11:25] ---
    Voltage is falling? The chemical reaction
    in my batteries has stopped?
[11:32] ---
    My hand!
[11:37] ---
    Harbinger Leader!
[11:42] ---
    Bastard!
[11:45] ---
    My rounds aren't connecting! Why?!
[11:47] ---
    A shield? It shouldn't have one!
[11:55] ---
    We're out of options!
[11:57] ---
    This is bad. We have to think
    of a way to slow it down.

[12:00] ---
    I thought you said we were
    going to destroy it!
[12:03] ---
    Call it a downward revision!
[12:06] ---
    Measuring bullet trajectory.
[12:08] ---
    Fall back, you two.
[12:13] ---
    I get it. The warheads entered
    a superconductive state
[12:17] ---
    and were deflected by
    the Meissner Effect.
[12:21] ---
    Let's see how air burst mode works.
[12:26] ---
    A dud? Oh, the battery in the warhead
    froze and the processor locked up?
[12:32] ---
    Where does the sapped heat go?
[12:34] ---
    Is it shunting the molecular movement
    energy somewhere else in our dimension?
[12:41] ---
    Flight distance for the warheads'
    electronic timer fuse,
[12:44] ---
    about 50 meters should do it.
[12:47] ---
    Radius of the field, 1km...
[12:50] ---
    Basically,
[12:52] ---
    20 rounds should do it.
[13:02] ---
    Inaho?!
[13:03] ---
    Charging enemy.
[13:04] ---
    You'll freeze!
[13:05] ---
    I just need to reach him
    before then.
[13:10] ---
    Hey!
[13:15] ---
    How amusing. Come, then!
[13:18] ---
    Grenade launcher, midair burst mode.
[13:21] ---
    Safe distance, cut. Flight distance, 50 meters.
[13:25] ---
    Fire.
[14:01] ---
    Oh, well done.
[14:08] ---
    Inaho!
[14:15] ---
    I took more damage than expected.
[14:18] ---
    I wonder if Calm will be mad...
[14:30] ---
    Inaho!
[14:32] ---
    Are you okay, Inaho?
[14:35] ---
    Ensign Inaho Kaizuka reporting.
    Per orders from General Headquarters,
[14:40] ---
    I have been assigned to your ship.
[14:42] ---
    Come on, what's with that?
    You never change, Inaho.
[14:47] ---
    Back at you, Inko.
    I'm glad you're looking well.
[14:51] ---
    You have changed. Quite a bit.
[14:53] ---
    You can make polite small talk now.
[14:57] ---
    That's not really a compliment.
[15:01] ---
    Inko...
[15:03] ---
    Welcome back...
    Welcome back, Inaho.
[15:12] ---
    It's good to be back.
[15:34] ---
    Shoot, Slaine.
[15:40] ---
    I have finished off the Terran soldier
    who has been a thorn in our side.
[15:50] ---
    I have finally made up my mind.
[15:55] ---
    Please forgive me for all the wrongs
    I have done you in the past,
[15:58] ---
    and am sure to do
    in the future...
[16:02] ---
    ...Count Saazbaum.
[16:05] ---
    Many Terran troops have already
    breached the castle.
[16:09] ---
    Let's escape in the Tharsis.
[16:12] ---
    And take Princess Asseylum with us.
[16:16] ---
    I am the only one who can
    save you now, Count.
[16:22] ---
    Will you die with your
    ambitions unrealized?
[16:25] ---
    Or choose to live with
    Princess Asseylum?
[16:29] ---
    Your decision, please.
[16:41] ---
    Highness!
[16:54] ---
    What?
[16:55] ---
    No!
[16:57] ---
    Inaho! Inaho!
[16:59] ---
    Yuki! Inaho's been...
[17:01] ---
    Inaho's...
[17:05] ---
    Dr. Yagarai! You have
    to do something!
[17:08] ---
    Inaho?!
[17:09] ---
    Gunshot wound to the head.
[17:10] ---
    Bullet went through the temporal
    region via the left eye socket.
[17:13] ---
    Patient unconscious.
[17:14] ---
    Three cc's of adrenaline administered
    as emergency treatment.
[17:17] ---
    This is bad...
[17:18] ---
    You'll save him, right?
    You'll save Inaho, right?
[17:21] ---
    He needs immediate
    surgical treatment.
[17:23] ---
    And a transfusion, of course. However...
[17:26] ---
    We have tools and facilities
    in the underground shelter!
[17:29] ---
    Capt. Magbaredge!
[17:31] ---
    Order the Deucalion to lift off!
[17:37] ---
    The Aldnoah Drive...
[17:40] ---
    is offline.
[17:42] ---
    Warrant Officer Kaizuka...
    Princess Asseylum...
[17:47] ---
    Where is she?
SIGN    Nao, do your best!
[18:32] ---
    Blood?
[18:34] ---
    Nao's blood...
[18:37] ---
    No, not his...
[18:40] ---
    It's blood splatter.
[18:43] ---
    Whose?
[18:49] ---
    It's...
[18:54] ---
    The light of Aldnoah...
[19:00] ---
    The activation factor...!
[19:11] ---
    Nao...
[19:20] ---
    Deucalion, lift off!
    All ahead, dead slow!
[19:24] ---
    All ahead, dead slow.
[19:54] ---
    We've left the atmosphere.
    Now coasting on inertia.
[19:57] ---
    Course, Trident Base.
[20:00] ---
    Electromagnetic grid, fire.
    Monitor all wavelengths.
[20:06] ---
    The Terrans who so foolishly squandered
    the goodwill of the Vers Empire

[20:10] ---
    are even now biding their time to attempt
    to steal our lands from us.

[20:15] ---
    The Vers Empire must exterminate them out of mercy.
[20:19] ---
    We'll be fighting her. Is that okay, Inaho?
[20:20] ---
    We shall take the blue Earth for Vers.
[20:24] ---
    Let us liberate this world,
[20:25] ---
    which possesses air and water
    in such quantities that it diffracts light

[20:28] ---
    and makes the sky and seas appear blue,
[20:28] ---
    It's wrong.
[20:31] ---
    from the hands of the barbaric Terrans.
[20:31] ---
    It's Rayleigh scattering that makes the sky blue.
[20:37] ---
    Water, please, Eddelrittuo.
[20:40] ---
    Y-Yes, Milady! Right away!
[20:42] ---
    How was that, Count Saazbaum?
[20:45] ---
    Excellent. You were the very
    image of Princess Asseylum.
[20:49] ---
    No one would ever suspect
    your true identity.
[20:52] ---
    This is the problem with you men.
[20:58] ---
    No one was speaking
    of true identities.
[21:02] ---
    Masterfully done, Princess Lemrina.
[21:04] ---
    Your majestic words
[21:06] ---
    are sure to have left an impression
    on the Orbital Knights, as well.
[21:09] ---
    Thank you, Sir Slaine Troyard.
[21:12] ---
    I am more grateful for such concern than
    any compliments on my performance.
[21:18] ---
    I am extremely and humbly delighted.
[21:24] ---
    If there will be nothing else, Milord Slaine,
    I will take my leave now.
[21:27] ---
    Thank you, Mr. Harklight.
[21:55] ---
    I've returned, Princess Asseylum.
[22:00] ---
    I see that you are in good
    spirits again today.
