**[00:07] ---**
All that and I still can't get through...!
**[00:09] ---**
Do I hear whining? You gonna quit?
**[00:12] ---**
Never. That thing's dangerous.
We have to defeat it!
**[00:15] ---**
That's right, Amou! Let's do this!
**[00:19] ---**
Yeah!
**[00:24] ---**
Japan was on the brink of destruction
during the mid-21st century.
**[00:32] ---**
Failed economic policies, the aging
population combined with low birthrate...
**[00:35] ---**
Problem after problem pushed Japan
to the verge of collapse.
**[00:43] ---**
To help, powerful countries
and allied powers stepped in.
**[00:47] ---**
In the name of economic aid,
medical support, and peacekeeping,
**[00:51] ---**
each nation deployed a vast number of
people, slowly expanding their territory,
**[00:57] ---**
until finally, an armed conflict arose.
**[01:02] ---**
Later, this battle was called
the Boundary War.
**[01:05] ---**
The nations deployed humanoid
war machines called AMAIM.
**[01:10] ---**
Unmanned AMAIMs with tactical Als became
the main players on the battlefield,
**[01:15] ---**
engaging in battles all over Japan.
**[01:19] ---**
Japan was virtually divided up and ruled,
and its people fell under outside control.
**[01:28] ---**
In the year 2061,
this is Japan's current situation.
**[01:48] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:06] ---**
Yes! Good stuff and
in a decent condition, too!
**[03:09] ---**
We might be in luck.
**[03:11] ---**
Seems that way.
**[03:15] ---**
With this AMAIM...
**[03:19] ---**
I knew it!
**[03:20] ---**
Yes! Dibs on the sequential turbo!
**[03:23] ---**
Let's take all the parts we can salvage!
**[03:26] ---**
How's it looking over there, Shiiba?
Did you find a control system board box?
**[03:31] ---**
Y-Yeah, I found it.
**[03:38] ---**
Man, we hit the jackpot.
**[03:41] ---**
With today's loot, I can customize
this beauty even more.
**[03:44] ---**
I can make my motorcycle go crazy fast!
**[03:46] ---**
Just don't overdo it.
**[03:48] ---**
Yeah, yeah.
**[03:49] ---**
What about you, Shiiba?
**[03:50] ---**
You take home quite the haul each time.
You've probably made loads of stuff.
**[03:54] ---**
Um, I just like AMAIM parts, so...
**[04:00] ---**
Well, everyone has
their own things they enjoy.
**[04:02] ---**
Yup!
**[04:03] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:06] ---**
Good hunting, Shiiba!
**[04:07] ---**
See you later. I'll ping you again
once I get a solid lead.
**[04:11] ---**
O-Okay. Thanks.
**[04:12] ---**
You little brat! How dare you touch
my clothes with your filthy hands?!
**[04:17] ---**
You're able to live a safe life
thanks to our protection!
**[04:20] ---**
You Japanese should stay
in the corner, cowering in fear!
**[04:22] ---**
Please forgive us!
**[04:25] ---**
Okay, let's go!
**[04:31] ---**
"Thanks to our protection," my butt!
They're just mercenaries.
**[04:33] ---**
You're the ones disturbing peace!
**[04:35] ---**
Stop it! What if they hear you?!
**[04:38] ---**
This area is under extraterritorial
jurisdiction. You'd be killed for nothing.
**[04:42] ---**
Dammit, how did this happen...
**[04:50] ---**
I often wonder...
**[04:54] ---**
...if there's any point in living.
**[05:02] ---**
"Japanese terrorists"
**[05:04] ---**
"20 Japanese terrorists dead"
In this day and age,
just being born in Japan
**[05:06] ---**
ln this day and age,
just being born in Japan
**[05:08] ---**
is like starting a game
with a huge handicap.
**[05:12] ---**
Sure, you might be able to turn your life
around if you have talent or money,
**[05:17] ---**
but if you don't,
your job options are limited.
**[05:20] ---**
"Video Expression of the Past and Future"
"Total unemployment rate
reaches an all-time high"
**[05:21] ---**
"Video Expression of the Past and Future"
"Total unemployment rate
reaches an all-time high"
Your future is already set in stone.
**[05:22] ---**
Your future is already set in stone.
**[05:23] ---**
So why bother trying?
**[05:27] ---**
"Next class starts in: 07:28"
"GDP in Japan plunges to a record low"
**[05:28] ---**
"Next class starts in: 07:28"
"GDP in Japan plunges to a record low"
What's hope? How much does it cost?
**[05:30] ---**
"Next class starts in: 07:28"
"Agonizing Diet deliberations!"
What's hope? How much does it cost?
**[05:33] ---**
Ugh, this is so depressing...
**[05:43] ---**
I met those three online
because we all like machines.
**[05:47] ---**
I don't even know if their names
or addresses are real.
**[05:50] ---**
What's wrong with that? You don't need
more than that in a social relationship.
**[05:59] ---**
This is my own spot that even
those three don't know about.
**[06:03] ---**
Not that I have much or
any parts they'd want anyways.
**[06:24] ---**
If only I had a car...
**[06:26] ---**
Oh, well.
**[06:27] ---**
Hey, pssst!
**[06:29] ---**
Over here. Please, help me!
**[06:32] ---**
Come on! I don't have much time left!
**[06:36] ---**
Come over here, quickly!
**[06:42] ---**
Are you okay? Are you hurt? What happened?
**[06:46] ---**
This way! Hurry!
**[06:49] ---**
Huh? A box?
**[06:52] ---**
You finally found me!
**[06:53] ---**
Uh, what?
**[06:55] ---**
I'm Gai, an autonomous AI...
Basically an AI with a consciousness.
**[07:01] ---**
Right...
**[07:03] ---**
Hey! You just thought that this was some
kind of prank with a comm or something!
**[07:08] ---**
And now you're cursing your bad luck!
**[07:10] ---**
You're thinking about
ignoring me and leaving!
**[07:13] ---**
Come on, be a pal and help me.
**[07:16] ---**
My battery is about to die and I
need help. I'm on the verge of death.
**[07:20] ---**
But there's nothing I can--
**[07:22] ---**
Shh! Be quiet!
**[07:24] ---**
Someone's coming.
**[07:34] ---**
You there. What are you doing
in a place like this?
**[07:36] ---**
Oh, um, I had a picnic at the creek
over there, and I'm on my way home.
**[07:42] ---**
A picnic?
**[07:44] ---**
What were you doing
at the edge of the road?
**[07:46] ---**
Nature called... Do you want to see?
**[07:50] ---**
Someone's scavenging for
AMAIM parts around this area.
**[07:53] ---**
They're apparently digging up AMAIM
remains from the Boundary War.
**[07:57] ---**
Do you know anything about that?
**[07:59] ---**
N-No, nothing...
**[08:06] ---**
I'm going to verify your ID.
**[08:09] ---**
Sure.
**[08:11] ---**
According to our intel, the culprits are
a group of boys around your age.
**[08:16] ---**
Y-Yeah? Is that so?
**[08:19] ---**
Shiiba Amou. Age 16. Attends an online
high school. What, you're an orphan?
**[08:25] ---**
Y-Yes, I lost both parents
when I was little...
**[08:28] ---**
How do you get by?
**[08:30] ---**
With a scholarship and some
inheritance money from my parents...
**[08:33] ---**
Ow!
**[08:34] ---**
We're going to search your backpack.
**[08:37] ---**
You're coming with us
if we find anything suspicious!
**[08:41] ---**
What's with all the trash?!
**[08:43] ---**
I told you, I'm on my way
back from a picnic!
**[08:45] ---**
Japanese people don't get decomposable
containers, so I have to bring them back!
**[08:52] ---**
Um, are we done here?
**[08:54] ---**
Stupid brat! You shouldn't be
walking around this late at night!
**[09:11] ---**
Told ya!
**[09:14] ---**
Yup. I'm surprised you could tell
it was a military vehicle, though.
**[09:18] ---**
They sound and vibrate
differently than regular ones.
**[09:21] ---**
They also come with human detecting
sensors, so hiding wouldn't have worked.
**[09:25] ---**
See! It was the perfect excuse.
No one would look for traces of urine.
**[09:30] ---**
Yeah, you really helped me.
**[09:33] ---**
Oh, don't mention it! I scratch
your back, you scratch mine.
**[09:38] ---**
Right...? People help each other!
**[09:41] ---**
You do have a heart, don't you, Amou?
**[09:51] ---**
Yes!
**[10:02] ---**
What is this place?
**[10:04] ---**
I think it used to be a maintenance shop.
**[10:06] ---**
It's abandoned now, so I'm using it.
**[10:10] ---**
Like a secret hideout?
It's every man's dream!
**[10:20] ---**
Hey, that's...!
**[10:30] ---**
Ahh, that hits the spot!
**[10:32] ---**
I couldn't figure out what would
connect to that peripheral,
**[10:36] ---**
but if your plug fits, I guess it was
an AI peripheral unit power supply.
**[10:41] ---**
Yup! The power transmission loss is low,
and the system is pretty good, too!
**[10:45] ---**
That whole unit was destroyed,
so the block was a total mystery.
**[10:49] ---**
Anyway, this is an AMAIM, isn't?
**[10:51] ---**
Did you build it yourself?
How did you move it?
**[10:54] ---**
Where'd you get the frames and armor?
**[10:55] ---**
Too many questions!
**[10:57] ---**
So take your time and
answer them one at a time.
**[11:04] ---**
I assembled it myself, but the required
parts, like the frames, were all here.
**[11:09] ---**
Huh? What do you mean?
**[11:11] ---**
One time, I got lost in the mountains,
and I accidentally found this place.
**[11:16] ---**
I really liked the vibe of this
run-down maintenance shop.
**[11:20] ---**
It still had tools and testing equipment,
even if they were a little old.
**[11:24] ---**
After spending a few days
entering random codes...
**[11:29] ---**
The door unlocked...
**[11:34] ---**
...and then I found it.
**[11:36] ---**
It had a cockpit, which was unusual,
**[11:38] ---**
but it had no control system
equipment installed. It was bizarre.
**[11:42] ---**
I still managed to use what parts
were there and got this far.
**[11:47] ---**
I get it. It's exciting to see
something starting to take shape.
**[11:51] ---**
Yes, that's exactly it!
Building something one part at a time!
**[11:56] ---**
The problem is, the main system
for this AMAIM boots up,
**[12:00] ---**
but I'm struggling with the battery
alignment mechanism, so it won't activate.
**[12:05] ---**
So you went into the mountains
to look for control system parts.
**[12:10] ---**
The scavengers those soldiers mentioned
back there were you guys, huh?
**[12:15] ---**
Don't worry, I won't repay
your kindness with ingratitude.
**[12:19] ---**
I called you to help because I knew
you had machine parts in your backpack.
**[12:24] ---**
I figured a tinkerer
wouldn't treat me so bad.
**[12:28] ---**
Anyway, what are you going to do
after this thing is operational?
**[12:31] ---**
You gonna fight them?
**[12:33] ---**
Fight? Why would I?
**[12:35] ---**
So it's just a hobby to pass the time.
**[12:37] ---**
Well, it's good to have something
to engross yourself in.
**[12:40] ---**
During the Boundary War, some traded in
their rations to go see a show.
**[12:45] ---**
Since the dawn of time,
humans needed entertain--
**[12:48] ---**
Be quiet!
**[12:56] ---**
A signal blocker that
jams cell phones, huh?
**[12:59] ---**
Do you believe me now?
That I'm an autonomous AI?
**[13:10] ---**
Hey, where are you going?
**[13:12] ---**
Home! I'm not in the mood today.
**[13:13] ---**
Don't shut down the main power!
**[13:15] ---**
It's okay, once I'm fully charged,
it'll turn off automatically!
**[13:21] ---**
Well, then.
**[13:24] ---**
Ah, there we go!
Great, I can see everything.
**[13:26] ---**
The remote circuit is doing good.
**[13:29] ---**
I'm glad I got access
to the system already!
**[13:31] ---**
Looks like Amou couldn't even
use half of what's in here.
**[13:36] ---**
Time for me to return the favor.
**[13:41] ---**
How did the squad leader meeting go?
**[13:43] ---**
Full of sarcastic comments.
"I envy the peaceful country life."
**[13:47] ---**
"All you have to do is
change the mercenary's diapers."
**[13:51] ---**
They're a quick-tempered, unruly bunch.
**[13:53] ---**
I will not end my career
in a place like this.
**[13:56] ---**
I need to achieve something great.
**[13:58] ---**
Like annihilating a group of terrorists?
**[14:01] ---**
Even wannabes will do. After all,
you're guilty until proven innocent.
**[14:10] ---**
It's been three days...
**[14:16] ---**
I wonder what he's going to do
after he's fully charged?
**[14:24] ---**
--Onishi!
--Taku!
**[14:27] ---**
I got something.
**[14:29] ---**
That's all we need.
We're charging you with terrorism.
**[14:33] ---**
What?! All we did was customize vehicles--
**[14:36] ---**
Second Lieutenant.
**[14:37] ---**
Sir!
**[14:39] ---**
There's another member. Tell us the truth.
**[14:44] ---**
Tell us, and we'll consider
letting you go scot-free.
**[14:53] ---**
"Gai" "Decline" "Accept"
**[14:54] ---**
"Gai" "Decline" "Accept" Uh,
**[14:54] ---**
what?!
**[14:56] ---**
--Hello?
--Amou, get out of there, now!
**[14:58] ---**
Gai? How did you--
**[14:59] ---**
"Gai"
"Decline" "Accept"
Never mind that! Hurry up
and head to the shop!
**[15:07] ---**
Clear!
**[15:08] ---**
Dammit!
**[15:10] ---**
Analyze the local image folder!
Get as much locational data as you can!
**[15:15] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[15:16] ---**
Sorry. I did leave you with some stuff
to work on, but this is an emergency.
**[15:21] ---**
How...
**[15:22] ---**
I solved the battery alignment issue.
It's operational!
**[15:25] ---**
How did you...
**[15:28] ---**
I accessed the facility's system
through this AMAIM to--
**[15:31] ---**
Wait, they're here!
**[15:34] ---**
What?! A security camera?
**[15:35] ---**
CO-03BR. Bunyip Boomerang...
**[15:39] ---**
Two unmanned AMAIMs
from the Oceanian military,
**[15:43] ---**
along with the vehicles
to control the AMAIMs;
**[15:45] ---**
one COMV73 and one COCV58.
**[15:51] ---**
Shiiba Amou! We know you're in there!
**[15:55] ---**
You are under arrest for conspiracy
and planning terrorist acts.
**[15:59] ---**
You do not have the right to remain silent
nor the right to an attorney.
**[16:03] ---**
Same goes for these scum.
**[16:05] ---**
I told you, we're not terrorists!
**[16:07] ---**
I asked them about you,
but they didn't say a word.
**[16:11] ---**
Of course not!
**[16:12] ---**
We don't sell our friends out!
**[16:13] ---**
We're not like you!
**[16:15] ---**
Well, well. Isn't this
a beautiful friendship, Amou?
**[16:19] ---**
Allow me to give you the chance
to help your friends out.
**[16:23] ---**
Turn yourself in immediately!
**[16:27] ---**
Kill him if he resists.
**[16:28] ---**
Roger that.
**[16:31] ---**
Don't go, Amou! If you do,
they'll arrest you and that'll be the end!
**[16:34] ---**
But...!
**[16:35] ---**
Do you want to spend the rest of
your life falsely accused in prison?!
**[16:39] ---**
Or do you want to
get out of this jam alive?!
**[16:44] ---**
This AMAIM can boost your one in a million
chance to one in a hundred, or even ten!
**[16:53] ---**
I can make that happen.
**[16:56] ---**
You saved my life,
so I'll stick by your side!
**[17:12] ---**
I'm trusting you, Gai.
**[17:15] ---**
I won't fail you!
**[17:17] ---**
Looks like he's not coming out.
Let's smoke him out, then. Fire!
**[17:28] ---**
Hey, it's practically perfect!
Man, I'm good!
**[17:31] ---**
Oh, turn it to the right.
**[17:34] ---**
Here we go!
**[17:36] ---**
This'll sting a little, but bear with me.
**[17:39] ---**
The system analyzes your brain waves
and body reaction to control the AMAIM.
**[17:44] ---**
Even if the AMAIM receives an impact,
the sensor will protect your body.
**[17:48] ---**
Transitioning to MAILeS start mode!
**[17:51] ---**
According to the program source,
this AMAIM's name is "Kenbu."
**[17:55] ---**
Kenbu...
**[17:56] ---**
Close your eyes for two seconds so I can
measure your ocular bulb location.
**[18:04] ---**
Wh-What's this?
**[18:05] ---**
It's projecting Kenbu's video feed
through the retinal display.
**[18:10] ---**
Yo!
**[18:13] ---**
Gai?
**[18:14] ---**
I look good, right? It's my avatar
so it'll be easier to talk to me.
**[18:18] ---**
Easier to talk to you...?
**[18:20] ---**
Right now, you *think* you're standing,
**[18:23] ---**
but you're strapped into your seat.
The system is controlling your senses.
**[18:29] ---**
I see. Same with this, then?
**[18:31] ---**
Right! Focus on that grip!
**[18:34] ---**
O-Okay.
**[18:36] ---**
Let's get going then!
Deactivate the control locks!
**[18:39] ---**
Deactivate the control locks!
**[18:42] ---**
Stand up!
**[18:43] ---**
Kenbu, activate!
**[18:57] ---**
Shiiba Amou! If you're not surrendering,
we will execute you as a terrorist.
**[19:03] ---**
If you're still alive, that is.
**[19:06] ---**
Dammit!
**[19:11] ---**
What?!
**[19:11] ---**
What is that AMAIM?!
**[19:13] ---**
It's an unidentified robot!
It must be an enemy force!
**[19:17] ---**
They have hostages,
but don't let them know that.
**[19:21] ---**
Draw their attention away
and confuse them!
**[19:23] ---**
Got it!
**[19:26] ---**
Could that be... Shiiba?!
**[19:37] ---**
Good! Now land on your left leg
and rotate to the left!
**[19:46] ---**
It's so powerful!
**[19:48] ---**
Pull back so your friends
aren't caught in the crossfire!
**[19:51] ---**
Right!
**[19:54] ---**
The 30mm machine gun
won't penetrate its armor?!
**[19:59] ---**
I worked hard to polish its armor!
**[20:01] ---**
You need to focus!
**[20:03] ---**
Unit-001, continue your pursuit!
**[20:04] ---**
Unit-002, attack the location
it appeared from!
**[20:07] ---**
There must be a command center beneath.
Use all your ammo if you have to!
**[20:10] ---**
Roger that!
**[20:11] ---**
It won't matter how strong the AMAIM's
armor is if we can find the pilot.
**[20:17] ---**
What're they doing?
**[20:19] ---**
They're attacking
where they think you are.
**[20:22] ---**
Nowadays, it's rare for a pilot
to actually be inside the AMAIM.
**[20:26] ---**
Watch out!
**[20:29] ---**
I'm out of ammo. I'm not picking up
any readings from the building!
**[20:32] ---**
How is it still moving then?
**[20:36] ---**
Could that AMAIM... That's it!
**[20:38] ---**
Send Unit-002 back to Unit-001 now!
**[20:53] ---**
The first one to make a move loses?
**[20:59] ---**
Oh, no...
**[21:01] ---**
That's right. We can use them.
**[21:04] ---**
Shoot, they're gonna use the hostages!
**[21:06] ---**
Use your special move and
wipe them all out before they can act!
**[21:10] ---**
My special move?
**[21:11] ---**
Bardiche Breaker!
**[21:13] ---**
B-Bar...?
**[21:14] ---**
Imagine an immense heat expanding
inside of you, and sock it to them!
**[21:19] ---**
By the way, it only accepts audio input.
**[21:22] ---**
Now you're just lying!
**[21:23] ---**
You've got a lot of
frustration built up inside!
**[21:25] ---**
Say it out loud and let them have it!
**[21:29] ---**
Amou, to your left!
**[21:36] ---**
Bardiche Breaker!
**[21:51] ---**
I knew you had it in you, Amou.
**[21:54] ---**
All I did was throw a punch...
**[21:57] ---**
But in that moment, using this AMAIM
to defeat the enemy...
**[22:01] ---**
Feeling the impact and vibration...
**[22:10] ---**
I'd never experienced anything like it.
**[22:15] ---**
I knew...

"Next on AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
So, how was it, Amou? Riding Kenbu?
**[23:57] ---**
"Next on AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
It was really exciting and thrilling.
**[24:00] ---**
"Next on AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
But now I'm a wanted person.
**[24:02] ---**
Who cares?
**[24:04] ---**
I do!
**[24:05] ---**
Nothing's guaranteed in life!
**[24:08] ---**
Let's blaze a new path
to the future, you and I!
**[24:12] ---**
All right.

**[00:09] ---**
Two enemy AMAIMs spotted at A7.
**[00:12] ---**
GS1, GS2, fire now.
**[00:20] ---**
Right flank, team two,
team four, form lines abreast.
**[00:23] ---**
Team six, team eight, back up Echo-2.
**[00:26] ---**
R1 to R7, advance forward.
**[00:28] ---**
In three seconds, open fire at W272.
**[00:31] ---**
Fire!
**[00:35] ---**
Enemy neutralized. Team one,
team three, advance forward.
**[00:37] ---**
Left flank, transition to phase 4.
**[00:40] ---**
Initiate wave attacks!
**[00:44] ---**
Grenade!
**[00:51] ---**
They're retreating.
**[00:52] ---**
A swift judgment call based on
the difference in military power.
**[00:55] ---**
They have a good commander.
**[00:57] ---**
The Eurasian military keeps at it though,
don't they, Captain Watt?
**[01:01] ---**
Small-scale drone battles are
simply a waste of supplies.
**[01:05] ---**
As long as we can handle it,
Warrant Officer Hardy.
**[01:08] ---**
Anyway, Captain, about the original
AMAIM piloted by that terrorist...
**[01:12] ---**
Ah, yes. The unidentified robot that
defeated two Oceanian military Bunyips.
**[01:18] ---**
A manned AMAIM at that...
**[01:21] ---**
This is very intriguing...
**[01:41] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:05] ---**
Amou! Be careful! We don't want
the Oceanian military to find us!
**[03:08] ---**
That's easy for you to say...
**[03:09] ---**
Uh, what was that?! I picked
the most inconspicuous route for us!
**[03:14] ---**
I'm still new at this!
**[03:16] ---**
Fine! You wanna ditch this robot, then?
**[03:17] ---**
No way! This is my AMAIM that I assembled!
**[03:20] ---**
Yeah, I like this one as well.
**[03:23] ---**
It'll also act as armor to protect us.
**[03:25] ---**
Especially after provoking
the Oceanian military like that!
**[03:33] ---**
Let's get out of here, now.
**[03:35] ---**
R-Right.
**[03:36] ---**
Shiiba Amou!
**[03:38] ---**
Exit the robot immediately and surrender!
**[03:41] ---**
Or else I'll kill them, one by one.
**[03:43] ---**
Don't think I won't!
**[03:45] ---**
Amou!
**[03:49] ---**
Don't make me laugh. You think I'll
come out because of your threat?
**[03:53] ---**
What?!
**[03:54] ---**
I was only using them
to collect the parts I needed.
**[03:57] ---**
Thanks to them,
I got this AMAIM operational.
**[04:00] ---**
But now I have no use for them anymore.
**[04:04] ---**
I've told them nothing.
Interrogating them is a waste of time!
**[04:08] ---**
The Oceanian army let the real terrorist
escape, while punishing the innocent.
**[04:12] ---**
You'll become a laughing stock
of the whole world.
**[04:28] ---**
Thanks to me,
they're walking away scot-free.
**[04:31] ---**
They're not free, they're still
under protective observation.
**[04:34] ---**
Although they were cleared of terrorism...
**[04:39] ---**
And now I'm a wanted man...
I'm not even a terrorist...
**[04:43] ---**
I got you covered, so the military can't
access your cell phone GPS or phone log.
**[04:48] ---**
You're welcome!
**[04:53] ---**
I'm so hungry...
**[04:54] ---**
I told you what berries are edible!
**[04:57] ---**
Those won't fill me up!
**[04:59] ---**
Well, you're the one being picky,
saying you can't slaughter a hog!
**[05:02] ---**
I wouldn't call that being picky!
**[05:04] ---**
Kids these days...
**[05:13] ---**
What's going to happen to me...?
**[05:16] ---**
First, we'll go through the
Seto Inland Sea and head for Okayama.
**[05:19] ---**
The Oceanian army will back off
once we're outside their territory.
**[05:23] ---**
What if they don't?
**[05:24] ---**
Then we'll escape abroad!
**[05:26] ---**
The world is a big place.
**[05:28] ---**
There's bound to be a safe haven
that they can't reach!
**[05:32] ---**
I'll come with you.
A great adventure, just the two of us!
**[05:37] ---**
Sounds fun, but also exhausting...
**[05:41] ---**
I don't like wasting energy...
**[05:45] ---**
Go to sleep. I'll be on guard.
**[05:48] ---**
Okay... Good night.
**[05:57] ---**
Look, there's the sea!
**[05:59] ---**
But we can't cross it in broad daylight.
**[06:02] ---**
We'll have to wait until the sun sets.
**[06:04] ---**
Okay.
**[06:05] ---**
So I'm going into sleep mode!
**[06:07] ---**
Huh?
**[06:08] ---**
Autonomous Als need time to
organize enormous amounts of data!
**[06:13] ---**
During that time, our functions
are temporarily limited.
**[06:15] ---**
I call it "sleep mode" because it's
similar to humans needing their sleep.
**[06:20] ---**
I've got tons of data to sort through
after operating this AMAIM.
**[06:23] ---**
H-Hold on for a second...
**[06:25] ---**
Once I'm done, we'll be able to move
a lot better than last time.
**[06:28] ---**
Never mind that!
**[06:29] ---**
I'll still keep my guard up,
but don't screw up.
**[06:32] ---**
It's all over if
the Oceanian army finds us.
**[06:34] ---**
I said hold on, Gai!
**[06:36] ---**
Good night!
**[06:41] ---**
Will this do? Gai did say
it'll have its guard up...
**[06:46] ---**
I guess I'll go find food.
**[07:00] ---**
A vegetable field this deep
in the mountains?
**[07:09] ---**
I know this is wrong,
but under these circumstances...
**[07:20] ---**
If I can just eat enough...
**[07:23] ---**
What are you doing?!
**[07:32] ---**
I'm sorry! I really am! It's just that I
was so hungry, and I couldn't help it!
**[07:35] ---**
You have my apologies! Just, please don't
call the cops! Please let me just go!
**[07:46] ---**
What's your name?
**[07:47] ---**
Huh?! Oh, um, Shiiba.
**[07:51] ---**
He who does not work,
neither shall he eat.
**[07:53] ---**
You can help. Then I won't turn you in.
**[07:57] ---**
Oh, o-of course!
**[08:01] ---**
Use scissors for tomatoes and cucumbers.
You won't harm the branches as much.
**[08:05] ---**
O-Okay.
**[08:07] ---**
Corn is ready when the silk turns brown.
They're not ready yet.
**[08:12] ---**
Loosen up the soil to harvest potatoes.
Make sure you get 'em all.
**[08:22] ---**
Here ya go!
**[08:27] ---**
Try it. It's been cooling
in that stream there for tasting.
**[08:32] ---**
Oh, but...
**[08:35] ---**
I only need enough for today.
Just shut up and eat it.
**[08:43] ---**
It's so good!
**[08:49] ---**
I got seedlings that
need planting. You can help.
**[08:53] ---**
Got it!
**[08:57] ---**
The feel of the soil...
**[08:59] ---**
Its smell, so earthy...
**[09:04] ---**
Is this your first-time doing field work?
**[09:07] ---**
Yes, it is. I came from the city, so...
**[09:10] ---**
But it's fun to do this kind of work!
**[09:15] ---**
You got time?
**[09:18] ---**
Huh?
**[09:22] ---**
Oh, my. Well, hello there.
**[09:26] ---**
My husband rarely brings anyone home,
so I didn't expect a guest.
**[09:30] ---**
Please, come in.
**[09:31] ---**
Get him dinner, will you?
**[09:34] ---**
Of course! Looks like
your clothes need washing, too.
**[09:38] ---**
I'll throw them in the washer.
You go take a bath.
**[09:49] ---**
Please, help yourself.
I hope you'll like it.
**[09:54] ---**
Don't be shy. We can't eat all this food.
**[09:58] ---**
She always makes too much.
**[10:02] ---**
Well, I can't help it.
**[10:04] ---**
U-Um, thank you for the food!
**[10:15] ---**
It's different from the store-bought food
or pre-made meals...
**[10:18] ---**
It's been so long since
I ate a home-cooked meal.
**[10:21] ---**
It's so warm, so delicious...
**[10:25] ---**
Oh, my! I'm so sorry! Did you not like it?
**[10:30] ---**
No, it's not that.
I-I'm sorry, it's really good.
**[10:33] ---**
Really... I don't know what's
gotten into me. It's just so good.
**[10:39] ---**
Well... I'm relieved to hear that.
Please, try this, too.
**[10:44] ---**
Okay! Thank you so much!
**[10:51] ---**
Thank you for the food.
**[10:53] ---**
You're quite welcome.
**[10:55] ---**
Here, I made you fresh tea.
**[10:57] ---**
Moving onto the next headline.
**[10:57] ---**
"Japan and NAC mark a new step"
Moving onto the next headline.
**[10:59] ---**
"Japan and NAC mark a new step"
The Japanese government and NAC are
working towards the restoration of Japan--
**[11:00] ---**
The Japanese government and NAC are
working towards the restoration of Japan--
**[11:04] ---**
The young terrorist who fought
the Oceanian military remains at large.
**[11:09] ---**
"Terrorist remains at large"
Authorities believe the terrorist will
try to escape through Shikoku--
**[11:23] ---**
Um...
**[11:24] ---**
Another person used to live here.
**[11:27] ---**
What?
**[11:30] ---**
My son.
**[11:31] ---**
"Genkoumaru"
He got caught in the crossfire
during the Boundary War.
**[11:36] ---**
"Genkoumaru"
He said he was gonna take after
my business and become a fisherman.
**[11:43] ---**
But after his death,
I never felt like going fishing again.
**[11:47] ---**
Occasionally, I'll go check
the condition of the engine.
**[11:51] ---**
It's yours if you want that old thing.
**[11:53] ---**
No, I can't!
**[11:55] ---**
I don't know your story,
and I don't care to know.
**[11:59] ---**
But I've never met anyone
who apologized like that in the field.
**[12:04] ---**
Usually, they either run
or throw hateful words at me.
**[12:07] ---**
But you were good-natured
and helped when I told you to.
**[12:11] ---**
Seeing that, I knew you were
straight as an arrow.
**[12:19] ---**
The way things are right now,
you've got good people and bad.
**[12:23] ---**
But what's the point if you can't
keep your faith in the people you trust?
**[12:29] ---**
So as long as you stay here,
you've got nothing to worry about.
**[12:34] ---**
Not a thing, you hear?
**[12:37] ---**
U-Um, thank you so much!
**[12:43] ---**
Oh, my. I think your clothes are dry now.
**[12:47] ---**
Oh, let me go! It's the least I can do!
**[12:51] ---**
Oh, all right. It's down the hall.
**[12:54] ---**
Okay!
**[12:56] ---**
Hey, Gen. Ya home?
**[12:58] ---**
Hey, Tokuji!
**[13:08] ---**
What brings you here so late?
**[13:10] ---**
You've seen the recent news.
**[13:13] ---**
About a terrorist kid on the run?
**[13:15] ---**
I'm patrolling the neighborhood
to be on the lookout.
**[13:18] ---**
Have you seen any kid like that?
**[13:20] ---**
A kid you've never seen,
or anything out of the ordinary?
**[13:24] ---**
Nah, nothing at all.
**[13:26] ---**
You sure?
**[13:28] ---**
Yeah, just the usual here.
**[13:38] ---**
Are you really sure about that?
**[13:40] ---**
Don't make me repeat myself.
Everything's been normal here.
**[13:48] ---**
All right, then. Sorry to
bother you late at night.
**[13:53] ---**
Call me if something comes up.
**[13:56] ---**
Yup, will do.
**[14:04] ---**
Don't worry about him. He can be trusted.
**[14:17] ---**
Amou...
**[14:18] ---**
You're awake, Gai.
**[14:20] ---**
I have been for a while.
I overheard that conversation.
**[14:24] ---**
That police officer
figured out you're here.
**[14:28] ---**
Yeah.
**[14:29] ---**
But he didn't pursue,
thanks to the old man.
**[14:33] ---**
Yeah...
**[14:35] ---**
You know, I was actually
starting to think this isn't a bad life.
**[14:40] ---**
Work the fields, harvest them,
and enjoy the meals...
**[14:45] ---**
But now is not the time nor the place.
**[14:48] ---**
Right...
**[14:53] ---**
If I stayed here,
I'd be putting them in danger.
**[15:05] ---**
Thank you for the dinner and the bath.
**[15:08] ---**
It was delicious and I had a great time.
I truly appreciate your kindness.
**[15:13] ---**
But I would be putting you two
at risk if I stayed here.
**[15:15] ---**
"Genkoumaru"
But I would be putting you two
at risk if I stayed here.
**[15:18] ---**
"Genkoumaru"
So I know I'm being selfish,
but I have to leave.
**[15:22] ---**
If anyone asks, please tell them
that I threatened you.
**[15:27] ---**
That way, you won't be
suspected of anything.
**[15:32] ---**
"Genkoumaru"
Also, I would like to borrow your boat.
**[15:36] ---**
Also, I would like to borrow your boat.
**[15:36] ---**
One day, I'll come back to return it.

Please be safe until then.
**[15:55] ---**
I didn't know you could
operate a boat, too, Gai.
**[15:59] ---**
As long as it's computerized.
**[16:01] ---**
I can operate vehicles,
aircrafts, anything.
**[16:04] ---**
We can also recharge the AMAIM using
the boat's battery. It all worked out!
**[16:12] ---**
What's wrong?
**[16:13] ---**
I said "borrow,"
but I basically stole it from him.
**[16:19] ---**
I just feel guilty, you know?
**[16:22] ---**
Give me a break.
You're a wanted terrorist.
**[16:25] ---**
Adding larceny to your list of charges
isn't that big of a deal.
**[16:29] ---**
You're missing my point!
**[16:31] ---**
Who cares what you're being charged with?
**[16:33] ---**
Stay alive and one day, you'll get the
chance to clear your name and apologize!
**[16:40] ---**
You're right.
**[16:41] ---**
Yup!
**[16:44] ---**
We're almost at the other side.
**[16:46] ---**
The undeveloped area up ahead used to be
a grueling battlefield during the--
**[16:50] ---**
Shoot, it's the Asian military!
They found us!
**[16:53] ---**
Huh?
**[16:55] ---**
I knew he'd show up sooner or later.
**[16:58] ---**
You may have been able to escape
from the Oceanian idiots, but not us.
**[17:04] ---**
Whether we capture or destroy
the robot that defeated the AMAIMs...
**[17:07] ---**
It'll be good publicity
for the Asian military.
**[17:10] ---**
AM22U Nyuren... There are at least
12 Asian military drones.
**[17:17] ---**
Wh-What do we do?!
**[17:18] ---**
We gotta fight them!
They'll just chase us down if we run!
**[17:21] ---**
Besides, we can't
outrun them on this boat!
**[17:24] ---**
B-But...
**[17:25] ---**
There's no other way!
The only way is forward.
**[17:29] ---**
You'll be a hero after defeating
both the Oceanian and Asian military!
**[17:33] ---**
I don't want to be a hero!
**[17:35] ---**
Oh, come on! Play along!
**[17:38] ---**
But you've got me fired up!
**[17:42] ---**
Yeah?
**[17:43] ---**
Prepare to open fire.
**[17:44] ---**
Prepare to open fire.
**[17:47] ---**
"Genkoumaru"
**[17:48] ---**
Fire!
**[17:49] ---**
Fire!
**[18:04] ---**
We're starting to descend!
**[18:06] ---**
We'll be entering their firing range soon.
**[18:08] ---**
We'll confuse them and
land at the end of the bridge.
**[18:11] ---**
How do I...
**[18:11] ---**
Leave it to me!
**[18:14] ---**
Orientation control, R23, L minus 1.
**[18:17] ---**
Prepare for landing. Increase
counterbalance output! Remove rev limiter!
**[18:22] ---**
How is it moving like that?!
**[18:25] ---**
Thanks, Gai!
**[18:26] ---**
Don't mention it! I'm here to help.
**[18:29] ---**
Let's go!
**[18:55] ---**
This is incredible...
**[18:58] ---**
I didn't know it could fight like this.
**[19:01] ---**
That was "push-out" in sumo.
**[19:03] ---**
Before sorting through all the data,
I added some combat sport techniques.
**[19:08] ---**
Like I said, we'll move
differently next time.
**[19:11] ---**
Nyuren-02 and Nyuren-03 are offline!
**[19:14] ---**
Team two, prepare to attack!
**[19:16] ---**
Team three and team four will advance
forward to block off his escape route!
**[19:28] ---**
Hmm... I've never seen
moves like that in AMAIM combat.
**[19:32] ---**
Please keep yourself hidden, Captain!
**[19:35] ---**
Who knows what'll happen
if the Asian military spot us!
**[19:38] ---**
Looks like our plan to
follow that robot is paying off.
**[19:41] ---**
Three-unit platoon up ahead.
Analyzing attack route. Select!
**[19:45] ---**
Go!
**[19:48] ---**
Good! We're out of their line of fire!
**[19:53] ---**
Next!
**[20:02] ---**
What?! It won't shoot!
**[20:04] ---**
It has an attachment
authentication feature.
**[20:06] ---**
Only Asian military robots
can fire that gun!
**[20:09] ---**
Then I'll just use it like this!
**[20:16] ---**
--Bravo!
--Captain!
**[20:18] ---**
He's rough around the edges,
but very fascinating.
**[20:20] ---**
Unfortunately, that isn't enough
to defeat the Asian military.
**[20:25] ---**
Send in the platoons on stand-by!
**[20:30] ---**
Shoot! We're surrounded!
**[20:32] ---**
The Asian military is a highly organized
army that never waivers.
**[20:39] ---**
There's no escaping now.
**[20:43] ---**
We need to run, Amou!
It's all going down-hill!
**[20:46] ---**
B-But...
**[20:47] ---**
Use that! It's a high-powered
ship battery!
**[20:51] ---**
The impact from the projectile will cause
the potassium ion inside to explode!
**[20:54] ---**
The law of Barnabas... Got it!
**[21:12] ---**
Now!
**[21:13] ---**
Right.
**[21:16] ---**
It's no use.
**[21:17] ---**
Fire!
**[21:26] ---**
Extinguish the fire!
**[21:31] ---**
Hold it down!
**[21:38] ---**
It took on all those hits
and it can still move?
**[21:40] ---**
They weren't lying about
how tough its armor is.
**[21:43] ---**
Let's put its strength to the test.
**[21:48] ---**
This was a manned AMAIM, right?
**[21:50] ---**
How long can the armor last
to protect its pilot, I wonder?
**[22:05] ---**
Continue firing!
**[22:13] ---**
Over there!
**[22:18] ---**
Six units remaining.
**[22:20] ---**
Give me six seconds.

"Next on AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
I feel bad about what happened
to the old man's boat.

Aw, keep your chin up.

When the time comes,
I'll apologize with you.

Thanks.
**[24:06] ---**
Anyway, I wonder who that was
that came to help us...?

**[00:10] ---**
There's a sniper!
**[00:11] ---**
Wh-Who is it?!
**[00:15] ---**
Locked on to all targets.
Launching a seeker.
**[00:24] ---**
All units are offline!
**[00:27] ---**
All enemies obliterated.
**[00:31] ---**
A-Amazing...
**[00:33] ---**
You there. Can your AMAIM still move?
**[00:36] ---**
I sent you some map data.
Security code A7C2.
**[00:40] ---**
A7C2...
**[00:42] ---**
Come with me. I'll cover you.
**[00:47] ---**
N-Now what?
**[00:48] ---**
It's a smoke screen with chaff.
**[00:50] ---**
Radar and radio waves are disabled.
We've lost the enemy units.
**[00:54] ---**
Dammit!
**[00:57] ---**
U-Um, thank you. You saved my life.
**[01:03] ---**
Oh, I'm Shiiba Amou. This AMAIM is Kenbu,
and the AI's name is Gai--
**[01:09] ---**
--Stop it.
--Huh?
**[01:11] ---**
Don't touch me!
**[01:14] ---**
But you're also trying to use
my connection against me to gather intel.
**[01:18] ---**
You're pretty good.
**[01:20] ---**
A female voice?
**[01:23] ---**
You won't believe this, Amou.
**[01:25] ---**
There's another autonomous AI
on that robot.
**[03:05] ---**
I apologize for earlier.
**[03:08] ---**
I'm Kei. This AMAIM is called Jogan.
**[03:11] ---**
And this is Tezuka Gashin.
It's nice to meet you.
**[03:14] ---**
O-Oh, the pleasure is ours.
**[03:16] ---**
What's this underground tunnel for?
It's not in my data.
**[03:20] ---**
A high-speed railway system that
fell through before the Borderline War.
**[03:24] ---**
Private-sectors were working on it,
**[03:26] ---**
but abandoned the plan
before going public.
**[03:28] ---**
It's the reason why we can
safely travel without detection.
**[03:32] ---**
So they basically realized
it'd cost too much and gave up.
**[03:36] ---**
Most likely.
**[03:37] ---**
U-Um, Mr. Tezuka.
**[03:39] ---**
Drop the mister. It makes me cringe.
**[03:42] ---**
O-Okay. Um, who are you guys?
How did you get that AMAIM--
**[03:48] ---**
Are you an idiot?
**[03:50] ---**
Gashin.
**[03:51] ---**
A Japanese person piloting an AMAIM
and fighting the military.
**[03:54] ---**
We are members of "Yatagarasu,"
fighting to reclaim Japan.
**[03:58] ---**
Ah, an encounter with
a real terrorist, then.
**[04:01] ---**
Wh-Where are you taking us?
**[04:06] ---**
To our base camp.
**[04:13] ---**
This is the terrorists' lair...
**[04:15] ---**
Hey, you're back, Gashin!
**[04:17] ---**
--Looks like everything worked out.
--Yeah.
**[04:19] ---**
Is he the kid everyone's talking about?
**[04:22] ---**
Doesn't look like he's got much spunk.
**[04:25] ---**
Okay then. I'm going to
take these to maintenance.
**[04:28] ---**
Thank you!
**[04:29] ---**
Wait...
**[04:30] ---**
You don't have a say in this.
**[04:31] ---**
Welcome back, Gashin! Is he Shiiba Amou?
**[04:35] ---**
Oh, yes, I am.
**[04:37] ---**
Hello. I'm Kozaki Risa. Nice to meet you.
**[04:41] ---**
Ah, nice to meet you, too.
**[04:43] ---**
You're blushing.
**[04:44] ---**
Shut it.
**[04:46] ---**
Come with me. Boss wants to talk to you.
**[04:51] ---**
I'm the leader of Yatagarasu's
Special Forces Group Two, Kumai Goken.
**[04:56] ---**
I-I'm Shiiba Amou.
**[04:59] ---**
May I ask a few questions?
**[05:02] ---**
Of course.
**[05:03] ---**
First of all, do you have any accomplices?
**[05:06] ---**
Secondly, how did you come across
that AMAIM and assemble it?
**[05:10] ---**
What is the code name of the autonomous
AI connected to that AMAIM?
**[05:14] ---**
It's Gai.
**[05:15] ---**
Are you the creator of Gai?
**[05:17] ---**
N-No, I'm not.
**[05:19] ---**
I found that AMAIM in an abandoned
facility deep inside the mountains.
**[05:24] ---**
I assembled it using manipulators
and winches already there.
**[05:27] ---**
For parts that were out of commission,
I went to find alternative ones.
**[05:34] ---**
I don't have an accomplice.
**[05:36] ---**
I found Gai inside the woods.
**[05:38] ---**
Inside the woods?
**[05:40] ---**
It's the truth. Apparently, Gai modified
the cockpit so it could get in...
**[05:45] ---**
Thanks to my foresight.
**[05:47] ---**
Shut it.
**[05:49] ---**
Amou.
**[05:50] ---**
Y-Yes?
**[05:51] ---**
Let me be straight with you.
That AMAIM belongs to us.
**[05:57] ---**
One of our backers provided us
with that AMAIM.
**[06:00] ---**
While the dev concept is different,
it's the same series as Gashin's "Jogan."
**[06:09] ---**
MAILeS...
**[06:10] ---**
Yes, MAILeS. We shipped the parts for
MAILeS: KENBU to our Shikoku branch.
**[06:16] ---**
The plan was to send out a pilot along
with a combat AI after its completion.
**[06:20] ---**
But the Shikoku branch fell before that.
**[06:23] ---**
We lost all communication
and had no clue where it was.
**[06:27] ---**
That's when you assembled
and activated it.
**[06:29] ---**
What's your point?
You gonna claim ownership?
**[06:32] ---**
Gai!
**[06:34] ---**
Not a bad idea, but that just
isn't fair for you guys.
**[06:39] ---**
So, Shiiba Amou.
**[06:42] ---**
Y-Yes?
**[06:43] ---**
What do you think about joining us?
**[06:46] ---**
Join a terrorist group?
**[06:49] ---**
We're not terrorists.
We're the Resistance.
**[06:53] ---**
We don't harm anyone who's unarmed.
**[06:56] ---**
I-I'm sorry.
**[06:59] ---**
With just the two of you, you assembled
Kenbu and won two battles.
**[07:04] ---**
We find your strengths very interesting.
**[07:08] ---**
What do you say?
**[07:09] ---**
But...
**[07:11] ---**
You're against it?
**[07:13] ---**
Right now, I'm just fighting drones,
but I'll eventually have to kill, right?
**[07:19] ---**
What about it?!
**[07:21] ---**
That AMAIM isn't a toy!
It's a weapon used for battles!
**[07:24] ---**
Take a look at this!
**[07:26] ---**
Japanese people are treated this way
all over Japan as we speak!
**[07:29] ---**
Yet, you'd hesitate even when you have
the power to save them?!
**[07:35] ---**
B-But...
**[07:43] ---**
I'm sorry, you'll have to excuse him.
**[07:46] ---**
It was his father's dream
to restore Japan,
**[07:49] ---**
but he died before he could realize it.
**[07:53] ---**
He was the previous pilot of Jogan,
the AMAIM that saved you.
**[07:58] ---**
Gashin has taken on his father's will.
**[08:03] ---**
If you really are opposed to it,
**[08:05] ---**
we'll help you get back
to the civilian life.
**[08:07] ---**
You'll change your name
and live elsewhere.
**[08:10] ---**
We have connections
with other organizations
**[08:11] ---**
throughout the country to do that.
**[08:15] ---**
Of course, you'll have to
return the AMAIM in that case.
**[08:21] ---**
Just think about it.
**[08:25] ---**
Will do.
**[08:31] ---**
Gashin...
**[08:38] ---**
What's up?
**[08:40] ---**
Ms. Kozaki...
**[08:42] ---**
You can talk to me
if something's on your mind.
**[08:48] ---**
Ms. Kozaki, why did you
join the Resistance?
**[08:53] ---**
I used to have a family.
My dad, mom, and a little brother.
**[09:00] ---**
They all died in a car crash.
**[09:08] ---**
The other vehicle belonged
to the Asian military.
**[09:11] ---**
It was 90 to 100% their fault.
**[09:15] ---**
But in this day and age...
**[09:18] ---**
They used their extraterritorial rights
and ended up getting away with it.
**[09:21] ---**
Somehow, they made it our fault.
**[09:24] ---**
They even charged me for the damage
caused to the military vehicle.
**[09:29] ---**
I was just in high school at the time.
**[09:32] ---**
That's awful...
**[09:34] ---**
I was left all alone.
**[09:39] ---**
To this day, I still feel pain,
sadness, and hatred.
**[09:43] ---**
There must be many others
who are going through what I did.
**[09:47] ---**
That's why I joined the movement
to take back Japan.
**[09:51] ---**
Everyone here probably has
more or less similar reasons.
**[09:56] ---**
I don't have a reason
like you or Tezuka have.
**[10:02] ---**
My parents died from illness.
It had nothing to do with the military.
**[10:08] ---**
A sudden illness claimed Dad,
**[10:10] ---**
and Mom relied on Dad for everything,
so she quickly worked herself to death.
**[10:15] ---**
Sure, it was sad and there was
a sense of loss, but that's it.
**[10:21] ---**
Amou?
**[10:23] ---**
When I assembled that AMAIM,
it was just to entertain myself.
**[10:28] ---**
During the first battle,
being able to move the robot I made,
**[10:32] ---**
feeling its impact and vibration
got my heart pumping and it was fun.
**[10:38] ---**
But in the second battle, I almost died.
**[10:42] ---**
I'm scared. I'm scared to fight.
**[10:49] ---**
To tell you the truth, they told me
to convince you to join.
**[10:56] ---**
But I'm having second thoughts.
**[11:00] ---**
If this was my brother,
I'm not sure if I'd ask him to join.
**[11:07] ---**
I think I'd want him to run off somewhere
and live a peaceful life.
**[11:13] ---**
I told you all this
because it's my mission,
**[11:15] ---**
but please take care of yourself.
**[11:19] ---**
People can't be happy all alone...
**[11:31] ---**
You're right...
**[11:34] ---**
HQ notified us that the Asian military's
been on high alert since we rescued Kenbu.
**[11:41] ---**
We're going to abort our plan
to cut the enemy's supply route.
**[11:43] ---**
Once ready, all members
will head back to HQ.
**[11:47] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[11:48] ---**
Do you think Amou will join us?
**[11:51] ---**
I'm not sure.
**[11:53] ---**
What a weakling...
**[11:55] ---**
We can always change out the pilots.
It's the AMAIMs we need.
**[11:59] ---**
That's true, but...
**[12:02] ---**
If push comes to shove, I'll be the pilot.
**[12:04] ---**
Useless pilots only hold us back.
**[12:13] ---**
Shiiba Amou!
**[12:15] ---**
Huh?
**[12:16] ---**
Come with me!
**[12:18] ---**
I'll train you.
**[12:22] ---**
Um, what's this?
**[12:25] ---**
Pilots need stamina, too.
**[12:27] ---**
It won't hurt to have it,
like in cases when you need to run.
**[12:30] ---**
You do have a point...
**[12:33] ---**
"Training Regiment"
**[12:33] ---**
"Training Regiment"
Running, 50m sprint, crunches,
back extensions, pushups, squats...
**[12:38] ---**
Running, 50m sprint, crunches,
back extensions, pushups, squats...
**[12:39] ---**
What's this?
**[12:40] ---**
It's a light training regiment.
**[12:42] ---**
--This is light?!
--We'll do three sets.
**[12:44] ---**
--What?!
--Come on. We don't have all day.
**[12:46] ---**
Uh, but...!
**[12:50] ---**
What are they up to?
**[12:51] ---**
Gashin's dragging Amou around
for something.
**[12:54] ---**
What's wrong with that? He finally has
a friend his age. Let them be.
**[13:07] ---**
What's this?
**[13:09] ---**
We brought these as
spare parts for "Jogan,"
**[13:13] ---**
but since they seem to be parts for
your AMAIM, I'm gonna install them.
**[13:20] ---**
Oh!
**[13:25] ---**
Let's call it a day.
**[13:39] ---**
It's amazing! Seriously!
You should go see!
**[13:43] ---**
Sorry, I just can't right now.
**[13:50] ---**
Let's go!
**[14:13] ---**
I heard Gashin's dragging
you around every day.
**[14:16] ---**
You haven't touched your food.
**[14:18] ---**
You can have mine if that's not enough.
**[14:20] ---**
Take some of mine, too.
**[14:21] ---**
Ah, no, that's not it...
**[14:24] ---**
I'm too tired to even have an appetite...
**[14:26] ---**
You should try this, then!
**[14:30] ---**
My special blend.
**[14:33] ---**
Uh...
**[14:44] ---**
Ah, perfection!
**[14:46] ---**
Let's move on then and
connect the weapons unit.
**[14:49] ---**
On it!
**[14:54] ---**
Thirty!
**[14:57] ---**
We're done for the day.
**[15:12] ---**
Shiiba Amou.
**[15:14] ---**
I finished assembling the armor
that never made it to Shikoku.
**[15:18] ---**
Come take a look!
**[15:21] ---**
YM-02 Kenbu.
**[15:23] ---**
This is Yatagarasu's latest
humanoid robot weapon.
**[15:26] ---**
It has a combat sword
with super thermal vibration
**[15:29] ---**
and a 60mm heavy-caliber machine gun.
**[15:31] ---**
This is the final form of
the MAILeS you assembled.
**[15:35] ---**
What do you think? Cool, right?
**[15:38] ---**
Or are you sour because
you didn't get to work on it yourself?
**[15:41] ---**
No, that's not it. I'm blown away
by such professional work.
**[15:46] ---**
Even the final touch-ups are
much better than how I did it.
**[15:59] ---**
I didn't know there was a river here.
**[16:02] ---**
Since there's not enough bathtubs
to go around at the camp,
**[16:05] ---**
I sometimes come here
to wash the sweat away.
**[16:08] ---**
I see.
**[16:13] ---**
Whoa!
**[16:14] ---**
Come on, what are you waiting for?
Take your clothes off, Amou.
**[16:18] ---**
Uh, well, I...
**[16:20] ---**
You wanna keep your clothes on?
**[16:22] ---**
It's not that, but...
**[16:24] ---**
Okay!
**[16:25] ---**
Cannon ball!
**[16:33] ---**
See? It's so cool and refreshing, right?
**[16:38] ---**
Huh? What? Did I say something funny?
**[16:41] ---**
Oh, no, it's just that this situation...
**[16:49] ---**
Boss said we're ready to leave, so we'll
be headed to Hiroshima tomorrow.
**[16:56] ---**
Have you come to a decision?
**[16:58] ---**
I'm still afraid to fight.
**[17:01] ---**
But after a few days with everyone,
I realize that you're all good people.
**[17:08] ---**
I'll come with you.
**[17:11] ---**
I also don't want to part ways with Kenbu,
now that it's in its final form.
**[17:16] ---**
And there's much to learn, so, um...
**[17:23] ---**
I see! I'm glad to hear that.
**[17:26] ---**
Thank you. We're counting on you.
**[17:29] ---**
I'll do my best.
**[17:31] ---**
Are you okay with that?
I didn't really consult with you.
**[17:35] ---**
It's totally fine.
**[17:36] ---**
Like I said before. I'll stick with you
no matter where you go.
**[17:41] ---**
Gai...
**[17:42] ---**
That's great! So he'll join us?
**[17:44] ---**
Yes, though it's a little complicated...
**[17:54] ---**
Are you ready, Amou?
**[17:55] ---**
Yeah.
**[17:56] ---**
Go!
**[18:00] ---**
Wow...
**[18:01] ---**
Let me adjust the anti-G.
Do a turn and a jump next!
**[18:05] ---**
I'll try!
**[18:10] ---**
The movement is far better than before.
**[18:13] ---**
They did a complete overhaul.
**[18:15] ---**
Even the parts we made do with have been
upgraded to the most recent models.
**[18:22] ---**
Gai! I'm going to test out the sword next.
**[18:25] ---**
You got it!
**[18:36] ---**
I-It's incredible.
**[18:39] ---**
This is the true power of Kenbu...
**[18:49] ---**
How'd it go? Did you finish your test run?
**[18:53] ---**
Y-Yeah. I'm actually shocked.
**[18:56] ---**
It felt about 20% faster
than the data being displayed.
**[19:00] ---**
But are we allowed to do this?
**[19:03] ---**
We've got the green light,
and it won't take long.
**[19:06] ---**
Under emergency situations,
we may have to swap our AMAIMs.
**[19:09] ---**
We need to be prepared.
**[19:11] ---**
Hopefully, there won't be
any emergency situations.
**[19:14] ---**
Oh, wait, wouldn't the Asian military
find us if we do this?
**[19:17] ---**
Are you an idiot?
**[19:20] ---**
We're engaged in high-level info warfare
to deny satellite and radar usage.
**[19:24] ---**
Without it, our base camp
would've been spotted ages ago.
**[19:27] ---**
Oh, I see.
**[19:29] ---**
Anyway, let's get started.
**[19:39] ---**
Yo! Nice to work with you!
**[19:40] ---**
Yeah.
**[19:42] ---**
If he turns out to be useless,
I may have to pilot this AMAIM.
**[19:51] ---**
Go easy on me.
**[19:53] ---**
Y-You, too.
**[19:55] ---**
This is mock battle. We have a fake sword,
**[19:58] ---**
and you have paintballs
that evaporate quickly. You good?
**[20:01] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[20:04] ---**
Let's go!
**[20:06] ---**
Your dash timing was off!
**[20:08] ---**
I know!
**[20:13] ---**
Gunfights can end in an instant.
Always watch your line of fire and ammo.
**[20:17] ---**
Okay!
**[20:27] ---**
You need to step into it! Give it more
*oomph*, and then *blam*! Get fired up!
**[20:32] ---**
Shut it! Your job is to just
give me data and analysis results!
**[20:35] ---**
What?!
**[20:38] ---**
Take good aim at them.
Those paintballs won't do any damage.
**[20:42] ---**
B-But it's all spick-and-span.
I don't want to ruin it...
**[20:46] ---**
What?!
**[20:48] ---**
Yes! That's what I'm talking about!
**[20:51] ---**
What an amateur!
You think this is a game?!
**[20:57] ---**
He's closing in! Change your weapon!
**[20:59] ---**
Got it!
**[21:29] ---**
A tie, then?
**[21:34] ---**
Good, there aren't any big scratches.
**[21:38] ---**
Als in MAILeS study the pilot's habits
to improve AMAIM controls.
**[21:42] ---**
This one seems to know your habits
by heart with only two battles in,
**[21:49] ---**
allowing you to move like it's your own.
**[21:52] ---**
Like my own...
**[21:53] ---**
What'd you expect? We're best friends!
**[21:57] ---**
Best friends?
**[21:58] ---**
What? I'm right, aren't I?
**[22:01] ---**
Yeah, you're right.
Best friends, huh? I like that.
**[22:08] ---**
An explosion?
**[22:09] ---**
It came from the base camp!

Gai, about Yatagarasu...
**[23:57] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
Yeah, it's a raven in Japanese mythology,
worshipped as the will of god.
**[24:03] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
Cut it out, you two. We need to focus
on the enemy in front of us.

**[00:17] ---**
Move those parts in
that truck over there, now!
**[00:20] ---**
We got this! You go ahead
and evacuate, Chief!
**[00:24] ---**
Chief!
**[00:24] ---**
Huh?
**[00:38] ---**
Please evacuate, quickly!
**[00:41] ---**
Thank you!
**[00:43] ---**
Amou!
**[00:50] ---**
What is this thing?
**[00:52] ---**
I don't know. It's not
in my database, either.
**[00:56] ---**
Either way, we need to
watch out for its left hand!
**[01:02] ---**
Gashin, that AMAIM is...!
**[01:08] ---**
That arm...!
**[01:09] ---**
Gashin, Amou!
**[01:12] ---**
We'll draw its attention to us!
Use that opportunity to attack!
**[01:52] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:16] ---**
Ms... Risa...
**[03:18] ---**
Above you!
**[03:23] ---**
Amou! We need to evacuate everyone!
**[03:25] ---**
Can you and Gashin buy us some time?!
**[03:28] ---**
Huh...?
**[03:29] ---**
Get it together!
**[03:31] ---**
Got it!
**[03:34] ---**
Gashin, stay calm!
**[03:36] ---**
That thing killed my father!
**[03:49] ---**
That day, I made a childish request...
**[03:56] ---**
I wanna practice on Jogan instead of
a training robot today. Is that okay?
**[04:00] ---**
Well...
**[04:02] ---**
It's fine. My mission is to
just patrol nearby areas.
**[04:06] ---**
One day, you may have to ride Jogan.
**[04:11] ---**
It'd be good to get used to it.
**[04:14] ---**
Yeah!
**[04:22] ---**
But...
**[04:25] ---**
Mayday! We're under attack
by an unknown AMAIM--
**[04:30] ---**
D-Dad!
**[04:34] ---**
By the time I arrived...
**[04:50] ---**
Dad!
**[04:55] ---**
I'm going to kill you!
**[04:59] ---**
Gashin, keep your cool! Your heart rate
and blood pressure's skyrocketing--
**[05:11] ---**
Hey, stay out of my way!
**[05:14] ---**
Gashin! You can't be serious?!
**[05:18] ---**
Gashin.
**[05:20] ---**
Boss...
**[05:21] ---**
You know full well that it's strong.
**[05:25] ---**
Work together with Amou, got it?
**[05:28] ---**
Roger that.
**[05:29] ---**
Gashin, get the weapon!
**[05:34] ---**
You're still here?!
We need to evacuate, now!
**[05:37] ---**
I know, just give me a few more minutes.
**[05:39] ---**
What the heck is this AMAIM, anyway?!
**[05:41] ---**
Honestly, we don't exactly know either.
**[05:44] ---**
It's unmanned and unidentified,
and its allegiance unknown.
**[05:47] ---**
It keeps popping up all over the place
and attacks without warning.
**[05:51] ---**
Our sources say even the Asian and
North American military have been hit.
**[05:55] ---**
Apparently, they call it "Ghost."
**[05:58] ---**
"Ghost," huh? How fitting. I tried to
look inside its system, but I got nothing.
**[06:03] ---**
What a pain!
**[06:05] ---**
Do you think we can
coordinate well enough?
**[06:08] ---**
It's not a question of whether
we can or can't! We *have to*!
**[06:10] ---**
R-Right.
**[06:11] ---**
It's coming!
**[06:15] ---**
Amou!
**[06:16] ---**
Be careful! Its power is off the charts!
Its limiter is likely disabled!
**[06:27] ---**
Don't ignore me!
**[06:43] ---**
How is it using our weapon?!
**[06:45] ---**
Is the attachment
authentication feature offline?!
**[06:48] ---**
That's one of its abilities.
**[07:01] ---**
It can use any parts or weapons that are
lying around on the battlefield...
**[07:09] ---**
...regardless of its attachment
authentication feature.
**[07:21] ---**
Idiot! Don't step in my line of fire!
**[07:23] ---**
Why don't you stop firing so sloppily?!
**[07:26] ---**
What?!
**[07:27] ---**
Dammit, we need to--
**[07:28] ---**
No! We'll only get in their way!
**[07:37] ---**
They're working together as a team!
**[07:42] ---**
That must be due to the
autonomous AI's learning capability...
**[07:48] ---**
Dammit, we can't finish it off!
**[07:50] ---**
We're low on ammo, too!
**[07:53] ---**
You two!
**[07:54] ---**
Ms. Misuzu?
**[07:56] ---**
You can find your weapons here!
**[07:59] ---**
Weapons...
**[08:00] ---**
We're counting on you!
**[08:05] ---**
Eat this.
**[08:31] ---**
With these weapons...
**[08:32] ---**
...we'll have more tactical options!
**[08:34] ---**
It's coming!
**[08:47] ---**
We're gonna have to think fast!
You ready, Amou?!
**[08:50] ---**
Yes!
**[08:51] ---**
We've got this as long as we
keep our cool. We need to be in sync.
**[08:55] ---**
Yeah, I got it.
**[09:02] ---**
It's pushing me back...
**[09:03] ---**
But if we know its powers,
we can easily counter it.
**[09:10] ---**
Guns would be more effective against it!
**[09:13] ---**
That's what I'm talking about!
**[09:29] ---**
I knew you'd try that!
**[09:37] ---**
Have a taste of our new weapon!
**[09:45] ---**
Now!
**[09:53] ---**
Tezuka!
**[09:54] ---**
Yeah!
**[10:01] ---**
We did it!
**[10:25] ---**
Is it over?
**[10:48] ---**
I-I can't move.
**[10:50] ---**
What's it doing?!
**[10:58] ---**
I'm getting a crazy reading!
**[11:00] ---**
Its core temperature and
energy output gain are spiking!
**[11:04] ---**
Wait, does this thing have
a self-destruct feature?!
**[11:13] ---**
It's effecting the system...
**[11:21] ---**
Huh?
**[11:23] ---**
Mr. Kumai, sir?
**[11:24] ---**
Aim for its joints!
Pull it away from them!
**[11:32] ---**
Tezuka!
**[11:33] ---**
Yeah!
**[11:39] ---**
Shoot its hip!
**[11:44] ---**
It's gonna blow! We need to run!
**[11:46] ---**
Fall back! Everybody, fall back!
**[11:58] ---**
It didn't explode?
**[12:00] ---**
It looks like the heat source moved away,
but it may be lying in wait.
**[12:05] ---**
No...
**[12:06] ---**
We'll observe for now.
**[12:11] ---**
Dammit... I wanted to avenge my dad...
**[12:15] ---**
That AMAIM was ready to die. Our AMAIMs
couldn't take any more damage, either.
**[12:21] ---**
What's the point in avenging your
dad's death if you die in the process?
**[12:26] ---**
We'll get it next time.
**[12:45] ---**
I see. I'm glad you're both safe.
**[12:48] ---**
On our side, many are wounded
and we're short on weapons, too.
**[12:52] ---**
We'll head back to HQ first.
Can you take care of the camp?
**[12:57] ---**
Yes.
**[12:59] ---**
Ghost might still be
lurking in the shadows.
**[13:02] ---**
Be extra careful and avoid any combat.
Our next channel will be F2633.
**[13:08] ---**
Roger that.
**[13:10] ---**
"Take care" of what?
**[13:12] ---**
After all that ruckus,
**[13:15] ---**
the Asian military
will find our camp soon.
**[13:18] ---**
We need to destroy
any and all confidential info.
**[13:20] ---**
O-Okay...
**[13:27] ---**
I'm not picking up any AMAIM signals.
Residual heat's gone, too. It's safe.
**[13:38] ---**
Amou.
**[13:40] ---**
I know...
**[13:47] ---**
What's that?
**[13:59] ---**
You can talk to me
if something's on your mind.
**[14:03] ---**
See? It's so cool and refreshing, right?
**[14:06] ---**
Thank you. We're counting on you.
**[14:08] ---**
People can't be happy all alone...
**[14:29] ---**
Amou...
**[14:48] ---**
So this is the terrorists' base camp
where the fighting occurred.
**[14:52] ---**
They've cleaned it out
more than I expected.
**[14:54] ---**
It's because the Asian military
went through everything already.
**[14:58] ---**
Though, I'm sure the terrorists
didn't leave any sensitive info behind.
**[15:07] ---**
One, two... No, three AMAIMs in total.
**[15:27] ---**
Oh?
**[15:33] ---**
Its movements are better than before.
**[15:35] ---**
Did the pilot or AI get better?
Perhaps it's the maintenance?
**[15:42] ---**
You can tell all that from just this?
**[15:44] ---**
Yes, if you look closely.
**[15:47] ---**
The evidence speaks for itself.
**[15:54] ---**
They were able to work together well.
**[16:04] ---**
They also have new weapons, and--
**[16:12] ---**
Which three AMAIMs were involved?
**[16:13] ---**
One is that original AMAIM
we saw at the port.
**[16:21] ---**
Another is the sniper AMAIM
the terrorists have.
**[16:25] ---**
Then, the last one must be...
**[16:28] ---**
Yes, it's Ghost.
**[16:33] ---**
So this is where it was.
**[16:35] ---**
Makes you feel like a kid again,
doesn't it, Warrant Officer Raymond Hardy?
**[16:40] ---**
Sir?
**[16:41] ---**
As you chase something interesting,
you get a glimpse of something bigger.
**[16:47] ---**
Ah, what a rush!
**[16:59] ---**
Amou must be devastated. How's he doing?
**[17:04] ---**
He seemed pretty closed off,
but he did manage to eat.
**[17:10] ---**
He seems to be handling death
better than I thought he would.
**[17:16] ---**
I understand what he's going through.
**[17:18] ---**
He was just a normal boy
only a few days ago.
**[17:21] ---**
We'll arrange for therapy
as soon as we reach HQ.
**[17:26] ---**
Keep a close eye on him, will you?
**[17:30] ---**
Roger that.
**[17:33] ---**
I'm done with the prototypes. Take a look.
**[17:39] ---**
Are these...?
**[17:40] ---**
I had the Intelligence Agency make them.
**[17:42] ---**
The original AMAIM,
the sniper AMAIM, and Ghost.
**[17:48] ---**
I entered the data I've ball-parked from
the terrorists' camp into the base models.
**[17:55] ---**
It should be close to their actual spec.
**[17:59] ---**
Is this for simulation?
**[18:01] ---**
Intel is gold. With it,
we're able to develop contingencies.
**[18:06] ---**
It's hard to believe that the Japanese
terrorists developed these by themselves.
**[18:12] ---**
Its specs are higher than our Brady Hound
or the Asian military's Nyuren.
**[18:17] ---**
I'm with the General Command Center
on this one; they likely have backers.
**[18:22] ---**
We have a lot of work ahead of us.
**[18:25] ---**
More importantly, take a look at this.
**[18:28] ---**
They're incredible... I'm surprised
the terrorists were able to win.
**[18:32] ---**
More like they were able to drive it back.
**[18:35] ---**
We already knew
its limiters were disabled,
**[18:38] ---**
but it may also have boosters
or accelerators installed.
**[18:43] ---**
A self-improving AI?
**[18:44] ---**
There must be a facility somewhere
that makes it all possible.
**[18:48] ---**
We can't move as freely
within the Asian military's territory.
**[18:52] ---**
But we can speculate.
**[18:56] ---**
Ray, contact the Development Agency.
**[18:58] ---**
Wait, you're not thinking
about moving *it* here?
**[19:03] ---**
Make sure it's in perfect
condition before the roll-out.
**[19:17] ---**
Shouldn't you try talking to him?
**[19:21] ---**
Leave him be.
**[19:23] ---**
Sometimes, you just want to
be alone with your thoughts.
**[19:25] ---**
Other times, you just need time.
**[19:29] ---**
I was the same way.
**[19:32] ---**
It's the only way I know.
**[19:41] ---**
What is it?
**[19:42] ---**
I'm not going any further.
I won't be joining the Resistance.
**[19:48] ---**
I see. That's fine.
**[19:51] ---**
Gashin, are you sure?
**[19:53] ---**
It's his decision. I'm sure
he put a lot of thought into it.
**[19:57] ---**
I'll talk to Boss for you.
**[20:00] ---**
Thanks...
**[20:01] ---**
But you can't take Kenbu with you.
Hide it so the enemies won't find it.
**[20:10] ---**
I or someone else
will come back for it later.
**[20:12] ---**
Just be sure to send me
the location of where you hide it.
**[20:16] ---**
Okay.
**[20:17] ---**
I'm sticking with Amou.
**[20:20] ---**
I'll let HQ know.
**[20:23] ---**
U-Um, d-don't die, okay?
**[20:32] ---**
It's none of your business anymore.
**[20:35] ---**
I-I don't want you to!
**[20:40] ---**
I'm afraid to die, too, but I'm
more afraid of people I know dying!
**[20:48] ---**
If I join the Resistance,
I'm basically going to the battlefield.
**[20:52] ---**
I'm sure I'll get to know
a lot more people.
**[20:56] ---**
That's why...
**[20:58] ---**
Many have said the same thing and left.
**[21:01] ---**
I chose to live my life this way.
**[21:04] ---**
You should just forget about us.
**[21:15] ---**
Okay, then...
**[21:18] ---**
Yeah.
**[21:48] ---**
Gai...
**[21:50] ---**
Yeah.

"Convenience Store: Daily Hiunasu"
Thank you!
**[00:17] ---**
I really can buy things...
**[00:19] ---**
I told you! I hacked into the database
and re-wrote your ID and warrant data.
**[00:25] ---**
You should be thankful!
**[00:31] ---**
So what are you going to do?
**[00:33] ---**
I want to visit Ms. Risa's hometown.
**[00:36] ---**
I know her family's gone,
**[00:38] ---**
but maybe I can return this
to her relatives...
**[00:43] ---**
But first, I need to find the address.
**[00:47] ---**
I'm a step ahead of you!
I already looked it up.
**[00:50] ---**
What?
**[00:51] ---**
"Military vehicle accident strikes again"
**[00:51] ---**
"Military vehicle accident strikes again"
I found an article about the car accident
Risa and her family were involved in.
**[00:55] ---**
I then went through the resident cards
in that city and found them.
**[01:01] ---**
Aren't you glad that I'm here for you?!
**[01:03] ---**
I really am.
**[01:06] ---**
I never got to say it properly,
but thanks for sticking with me.
**[01:11] ---**
I would've decked you if
you said you'd go without me!
**[01:14] ---**
How?
**[01:15] ---**
I'd use Kenbu!
**[01:16] ---**
I'd die!
**[01:18] ---**
That's true!

**[03:05] ---**
Next!
**[03:07] ---**
Japanese criminals, huh?
**[03:09] ---**
Entertainment to increase my appetite.
**[03:13] ---**
It also serves as a lesson
to others. It's a win-win.
**[03:18] ---**
Ever since you became deputy governor,
public order has dramatically improved.
**[03:24] ---**
Using a stick is the best way
to train those idiots.
**[03:27] ---**
You know, it's violence, power,
and money you need to control people.
**[03:33] ---**
And you have them all.
**[03:35] ---**
I need more. One day,
I'll return to HQ, triumphantly.
**[03:40] ---**
I suppose we'll see many more, then.
**[03:43] ---**
Many more Japanese rebels
who'll die from illness or go missing.
**[03:49] ---**
They're nothing but prey to me.
**[03:58] ---**
Is this the place?
**[03:59] ---**
Yeah, I'm positive.
**[04:00] ---**
I checked the map data. I don't see
any other Kosaki's nearby.
**[04:02] ---**
"Tanaka"
I checked the map data. I don't see
any other Kosaki's nearby.

**[04:06] ---**
M-Maybe her relatives or
someone would know something.
**[04:12] ---**
Excuse me!
**[04:15] ---**
Oh, hello! Ah...
**[04:18] ---**
Looks like this is going to be hard.
**[04:21] ---**
Hi, there.
**[04:24] ---**
Are you Risa's friend?
**[04:26] ---**
Huh?
**[04:27] ---**
Hina!
**[04:30] ---**
Who are you?
**[04:32] ---**
U-Um, I came to know Ms. Risa recently,
and I brought this...
**[04:41] ---**
Not here. Follow me.
**[04:51] ---**
The Asian military destroyed Risa's home.
**[04:54] ---**
She had no family left,
and since she joined the Resistance,
**[05:00] ---**
this guy who was recently assigned
as deputy governor sanctioned it.
**[05:05] ---**
Several other homes were
destroyed for similar reasons.
**[05:08] ---**

Several other homes were
destroyed for similar reasons.
**[05:08] ---**

They even went after
their family members.
**[05:11] ---**
They even went after
their family members.
**[05:12] ---**
It was basically oppression.
**[05:14] ---**
Fearing for their lives,
Risa's relatives all moved away.
**[05:18] ---**
No one knows where they are now.
**[05:22] ---**
I see...
**[05:25] ---**
Are you hurt?
**[05:27] ---**
Oh, not at all! I'm not hurt,
but thanks for asking.
**[05:33] ---**
Good!
**[05:34] ---**
Most people know each other around here.
**[05:38] ---**
An outsider like you would stand out.
**[05:41] ---**
So where are we going?
**[05:43] ---**
A place with some privacy.
**[05:46] ---**
I want to hear a little more about Risa.
**[05:52] ---**
"Yakisoba" "Okonomiyaki"
**[05:55] ---**
Is this the guy Mr. Nose
was talking about?
**[05:57] ---**
He knows Risa?
**[05:58] ---**
He's cute!
**[05:59] ---**
Is he a member of the Resistance, too?
**[06:00] ---**
Uh, no, I'm...
**[06:02] ---**
Tsutomu! Stop fooling around!
**[06:05] ---**
But we don't have any other customers!
**[06:09] ---**
Um...
**[06:11] ---**
This is Namba's place.
**[06:13] ---**
They're Risa's childhood friends.
**[06:16] ---**
I called them here.
**[06:17] ---**
We've known her since elementary school.
**[06:20] ---**
We have this comradery between us.
**[06:21] ---**
We were shocked when Risa told us
that she was joining the Resistance,
**[06:25] ---**
but it kinda made sense.
**[06:27] ---**
I know.
**[06:28] ---**
She was pretty kick-ass!
**[06:30] ---**
More than you were!
**[06:32] ---**
No way!
**[06:33] ---**
Um, what was Ms. Risa like
when she was younger?
**[06:39] ---**
She hasn't changed, really.
**[06:40] ---**
She joined the baseball team and played
amongst the boys up until middle school.
**[06:46] ---**
Huh?
**[06:47] ---**
After practice, she and her brother,
Satoru, would go home holding hands.
**[06:51] ---**
Yeah. They looked so happy.
**[06:53] ---**
Remember that one time
Risa bawled her eyes out?
**[06:56] ---**
Oh yeah, I remember!
**[06:58] ---**
She was set on winning that perfect
attendance award, but she caught a cold.
**[07:04] ---**
I never thought she could cry like that.
**[07:07] ---**
I see...
**[07:09] ---**
So where's Risa?
**[07:23] ---**
When Risa left this town,
**[07:26] ---**
she told us she wouldn't keep in touch
with us to avoid getting us into trouble.
**[07:31] ---**
Thanks for letting us know.
**[07:35] ---**
Not at all...
**[07:39] ---**
What was she like?
**[07:43] ---**
She was very kind.
**[07:46] ---**
She was kind, and did her
absolute best to protect others.
**[07:52] ---**
I see. It's just like her.
**[07:56] ---**
He came here to return that
to Risa's relatives.
**[08:00] ---**
That's right. But...
**[08:03] ---**
They all left.
**[08:06] ---**
So I would like to bring it
to her family's grave.
**[08:09] ---**
Where her family rests in peace...
**[08:12] ---**
Does anyone know where it is?
**[08:17] ---**
I know!
**[08:19] ---**
The Kosaki family's grave, right?
**[08:22] ---**
It's in the mountains,
so it'll take some time.
**[08:24] ---**
It's too late today,
so you can spend the night here.
**[08:26] ---**
You sure?!
**[08:28] ---**
I wouldn't hang someone
who came all the way here to dry.
**[08:31] ---**
I don't want to be a bother--
**[08:33] ---**
It'd bother me more knowing
a kid is walking around by himself!
**[08:37] ---**
She's not gonna tell you where
the grave is unless you stay!
**[08:41] ---**
Right, Mrs. Namba?
**[08:42] ---**
Yeah, that's right.
**[08:44] ---**
That's settled, then!
**[08:45] ---**
Okay, then I'll whip you up some dinner!
**[08:48] ---**
What do you want?
**[08:49] ---**
--Pork and fried egg *okonomiyaki* for me!
--Huh?
**[08:51] ---**
--I want mine with squid tempura
and green onions!
--What?!
**[08:53] ---**
You two sure don't waste an opportunity.
**[08:58] ---**
Everyone's grateful for you.
**[09:00] ---**
Huh?
**[09:01] ---**
There isn't much to do here,
but I hope you can stay a bit and enjoy.
**[09:06] ---**
This is Risa's hometown.
**[09:10] ---**
Thank you.
**[09:12] ---**
Okay, dig in!
**[09:18] ---**
It was so yummy and fun!
**[09:21] ---**
I'm glad you had fun.
**[09:22] ---**
Will he stay here forever and ever?
**[09:25] ---**
I don't know about forever and ever,
but you'll see him tomorrow.
**[09:28] ---**
Yay!
**[09:31] ---**
Hina!
**[09:36] ---**
Look what you did.
**[09:39] ---**
Look! You made me spill
a 24-year-old wine on my uniform.
**[09:44] ---**
Deputy Governor...!
**[09:48] ---**
You Japanese... Do you know
what this means?
**[09:58] ---**
You finished it sooner
than I thought you would.
**[10:01] ---**
You told us to hurry.
**[10:04] ---**
Still, no corners were cut,
no compromises were made!
**[10:08] ---**
I've apparently underestimated
the Development Agency's ability.
**[10:12] ---**
Model number NA12S.
**[10:15] ---**
This is your exclusive
Brady Hound, Captain Brad.
**[10:19] ---**
All outputs and mobility are
tuned to be at its maximum.
**[10:25] ---**
Even within the North American military,
there's no other AMAIM like this.
**[10:28] ---**
You have my gratitude, Charlie.
My heart's dancing with joy.
**[10:33] ---**
Are you planning on taking them on?
**[10:35] ---**
Yes. I'm going to hunt down the
terrorists' original AMAIM and Ghost!
**[11:04] ---**
What do you mean?!
**[11:05] ---**
How could Mr. Nose disappear?!
**[11:08] ---**
Hina never came to the preschool, so I
tried calling, but he never picked up.
**[11:15] ---**
I got worried so I went to their place,
**[11:18] ---**
but it was empty, furniture and all.
**[11:23] ---**
But their car was still there!
Something's not adding up!
**[11:27] ---**
--Did they move?
--Or skip town?
**[11:28] ---**
--They never mentioned anything.
--Why would they leave their car behind?
**[11:31] ---**
I've heard a rumor about
something like this...
**[11:35] ---**
The new deputy governor
had his eyes on this one guy.
**[11:38] ---**
Then, one night, he just disappeared,
along with all of his furniture and stuff.
**[11:44] ---**
Apparently, he was considered rebellious.
**[11:48] ---**
I heard he was sent to Asian Free
Trade Entente for forced labor,
**[11:54] ---**
or maybe even sold to human traffickers.
**[11:56] ---**
What?!
**[11:57] ---**
Mr. Nose wasn't a rebel!
**[11:59] ---**
I-I'm just saying...
**[12:01] ---**
Even if that's really true...
**[12:04] ---**
Gai!
**[12:06] ---**
Who are you?
**[12:07] ---**
A customer of ours.
**[12:09] ---**
Whose voice was that?
**[12:10] ---**
Um, it's actually accessing
my phone to talk,
**[12:14] ---**
but this is Gai, an autonomous AI.
**[12:17] ---**
It'd be in the data logs
if a military vehicle was used.
**[12:20] ---**
But there's no record of people or items
being transported during that time.
**[12:24] ---**
The Nose family should
still be here somewhere!
**[12:27] ---**
Do you really expect us
to believe all that?!
**[12:29] ---**
How's the audio device you recently
purchased working, Mr. Yazu?
**[12:33] ---**
H-How did you--
**[12:35] ---**
Vinyl records? That's a cool hobby.
**[12:38] ---**
If you want, I can dig up
your credit card history, too?
**[12:42] ---**
Stop it!
**[12:44] ---**
I know Gai has a mouth,
but it's actually a good AI...
**[12:47] ---**
If you could just trust Gai...
**[12:50] ---**
What should we do?
**[12:51] ---**
Let's go see the deputy governor.
**[12:53] ---**
If the military is involved,
we'll ask him to release them.
**[12:56] ---**
Mr. Nose hadn't done anything wrong!
**[12:59] ---**
That's right!
**[13:00] ---**
I'll go with you, too!
**[13:02] ---**
I never liked the way
the military did things!
**[13:04] ---**
I want to give them a piece of my mind!
**[13:08] ---**
I see, Amou isn't joining us.
**[13:11] ---**
That's unfortunate,
but we can't force him.
**[13:14] ---**
Right.
**[13:14] ---**
We're almost at HQ. How about you?
**[13:19] ---**
It's going to take a bit longer.
**[13:21] ---**
I'm trying to move under the radar,
**[13:24] ---**
and I also need to conserve
the remaining energy.
**[13:27] ---**
Understood. Keep your eyes open.
**[13:29] ---**
By the time you arrive, we should be able
to introduce our newest member to you.
**[13:34] ---**
You mean...?
**[13:35] ---**
Yes, she'll be riding the AMAIM with
the same series as Kenbu and Jogan.
**[13:39] ---**
This new pilot's a 16-year-old girl,
the same age as you.
**[13:44] ---**
"Pottery Studio"
**[13:59] ---**
Yup! Looks cute!
**[14:05] ---**
Last minute requests are
very difficult to handle.
**[14:08] ---**
I need to coordinate with the buyer and--
**[14:11] ---**
You're willing to let
a business opportunity pass?
**[14:13] ---**
You should be ready to act
if opportunity knocks.
**[14:17] ---**
You've got me there.
**[14:19] ---**
You said a man and a girl?
**[14:21] ---**
We'll send the man to
the sweatshop and the girl will--
**[14:26] ---**
I'm not interested.
**[14:28] ---**
The buyer's free to do
whatever they want to.
**[14:31] ---**
It doesn't matter to me,
as long as I'm paid.
**[14:36] ---**
Very true.
**[14:37] ---**
Hm? What's going on?
**[14:39] ---**
Japanese civilians are
protesting outside the gate.
**[14:43] ---**
They're demanding to speak to you,
Deputy Governor. What are your orders?
**[14:48] ---**
Seems the golden eggs
came to me themselves.
**[14:55] ---**
I hope Namba and the others are okay...
**[14:58] ---**
Yeah...
**[15:01] ---**
--Hello?
--You need to run, Mrs. Namba!
**[15:03] ---**
Kaede?!
**[15:05] ---**
What's wrong?
**[15:06] ---**
I'm near the base, but Namba
and the others were arrested!
**[15:10] ---**
They're being treated as
an antigovernment force,
**[15:13] ---**
and vehicles were sent out to go after
their family members as suspects, too!
**[15:18] ---**
So you need to go!
**[15:19] ---**
I looked into it!
**[15:21] ---**
It's true, military vehicles
are headed this way.
**[15:23] ---**
Some are headed towards
the other protestors' families.
**[15:25] ---**
They'll be here in less than five minutes!
**[15:29] ---**
Kaede, you said you're
near the base, right?
**[15:32] ---**
You also need to leave, right now!
**[15:34] ---**
Huh? Wh-Why me?
**[15:35] ---**
If the soldiers find you and suspect
something, they'll arrest you, too!
**[15:38] ---**
Hurry!
**[15:39] ---**
O-Okay!
**[15:43] ---**
Mrs. Namba, we need to go, too!
**[15:45] ---**
Shiiba, will you be okay by yourself?
**[15:48] ---**
Huh?
**[15:49] ---**
They'll tear you to shreds once they
find out you're Risa's acquaintance.
**[15:53] ---**
What?
**[15:55] ---**
Don't worry! We'll buy you time.
**[15:57] ---**
--That's right.
--Yeah.
**[15:59] ---**
B-But...!
**[16:00] ---**
Don't worry! We know the area
like the palm of our hands!
**[16:04] ---**
The Asian military
won't catch us so easily.
**[16:08] ---**
Take this.
**[16:10] ---**
It'll take you to
the Kosaki family's gravesite.
**[16:12] ---**
I'm sorry I can't take you there myself.
**[16:15] ---**
No...
**[16:18] ---**
Take care.
**[16:22] ---**
Amou! We don't have time!
**[16:25] ---**
Off you go!
**[16:30] ---**
The soldiers are coming!
**[16:37] ---**
Are you sure you don't want
to sell them off as well?
**[16:42] ---**
Excess supply will cause prices to fall.
**[16:45] ---**
Besides, I also need to prove my worth
to the upper ranks to return to HQ.
**[16:51] ---**
I see.
**[16:52] ---**
"Oriental Insurance"
**[16:57] ---**
These rebels are guilty of
attempted mutiny against the AFTE!
**[17:06] ---**
The Asian military court has sentenced
these arrestees to the death penalty.
**[17:11] ---**
A public execution will be held
**[17:15] ---**
to keep the peace for
our future and for our allies!
**[17:20] ---**
Hey, stop recording!
**[17:21] ---**
I-I'm not recording anything!
**[17:23] ---**
These videos are from nearby security
cameras and cell phones that I've hacked.
**[17:28] ---**
You can see what's going on.
**[17:30] ---**
Yeah.
**[17:31] ---**
Attempted mutiny, my ass!
We were only here to protest!
**[17:35] ---**
We did nothing wrong!
**[17:36] ---**
This is illegal! I'm going to
file charges! I'll--
**[17:39] ---**
Mr. Yazu!
**[17:43] ---**
Even criminals have the right to object.
**[17:46] ---**
However, a court ruling has already
been made, and this is AFTE territory.
**[17:53] ---**
You understand?
**[17:56] ---**
They're gonna kill them... All of them...
**[18:05] ---**
Amou...
**[18:08] ---**
I'm a coward...
**[18:10] ---**
So many people helped me so many times,
**[18:13] ---**
and yet, I ran away by myself...
**[18:17] ---**
...hiding in a place like this!
**[18:21] ---**
Calling yourself a coward means
you don't like that part about you, right?
**[18:26] ---**
Then, just do what you want!
I'll support you all the way!
**[18:53] ---**
Based on the 23rd military tribunal,
**[18:57] ---**
we will be executing these 12 criminals!
**[19:01] ---**
--Tsutomu!
--Mrs. Namba...
**[19:05] ---**
Take aim!
**[19:19] ---**
Wh-What's that?!
**[19:22] ---**
Firing squad, fall back! Nyuren, attack!
**[19:25] ---**
Attack!
**[19:51] ---**
How does it feel to be attacked by an
overwhelming force?! Scary?! Painful?!
**[19:57] ---**
You're an adult, so why can't you
understand something so simple?!
**[20:01] ---**
Shame on you for using your power
to make money off human trafficking!
**[20:06] ---**
How'd you find that out?!
**[20:07] ---**
Wow, a confession already!
**[20:09] ---**
All that data on your dual bookkeeping
and secret accounts were for nothing!
**[20:16] ---**
"Deputy governor of the Asian
Free Trade Entente, Major Liu Fu"
By the way, your slip-up along with
the data has been sent all over the world!
**[20:18] ---**
"The truth about
the disappearance of residents"
By the way, your slip-up along with
the data has been sent all over the world!
**[20:20] ---**
By the way, your slip-up along with
the data has been sent all over the world!
**[20:24] ---**
Bravo!
**[20:25] ---**
Terminate him immediately.
**[20:28] ---**
Confirm the facts and prepare a statement
to provide to the foreign nations.
**[20:32] ---**
Send a unit there, and do not
let that AMAIM get away!
**[20:35] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[20:37] ---**
Mark my words! If you bully
the Japanese people like this ever again,
**[20:41] ---**
I, no, Kenbu will make sure
that you're crushed!
**[20:46] ---**
We'll be watching your every move!
**[20:58] ---**
I mouthed off...
**[21:00] ---**
Why did I let my emotions
get the better of me...
**[21:03] ---**
Aw, come on, don't be like that.
You found the resolve to do this, right?
**[21:10] ---**
Right?!
**[21:12] ---**
Yeah!
**[21:19] ---**
Mr. Nose!
**[21:22] ---**
I'm so glad you're both all right!
**[21:35] ---**
Good!
**[21:57] ---**
You came.

Looks like you finally
made your decision, Amou.
**[23:57] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
Yeah, I did. I'm sorry we kinda
took a roundabout way.
**[24:02] ---**
No need to apologize! So where to next?
**[24:06] ---**
Apparently to HQ. But they have
a mission for us before that.
**[24:10] ---**
A mission?

**[00:08] ---**
My grandpa was a potter of Himeno wares.
**[00:12] ---**
An old kiln and the long-established
techniques were passed down to him.
**[00:19] ---**
I loved the rustic and elegant ceramics
that Grandpa made.
**[00:28] ---**
But... five years ago...
**[00:36] ---**
The Asian military confiscated the land
where Grandpa's studio was located.
**[00:42] ---**
We had no say in the matter.
**[00:48] ---**
All we could do was silently watch...
**[00:54] ---**
...as they destroyed our kiln.
**[00:59] ---**
Grandpa grew despondent,
seemingly aging faster.
**[01:05] ---**
After seeing him like that,
I made a promise...
**[01:09] ---**
That one day,
I will bring back Himeno wares.
**[01:42] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:07] ---**
The control module is fried.
**[03:10] ---**
Did sand get into it?
**[03:13] ---**
We can limit the transmission path,
**[03:17] ---**
but the performance
will drop significantly.
**[03:20] ---**
How's it looking on your side, Amou?
**[03:22] ---**
The joints around the MST bearing
and cylinder cushions are worn out.
**[03:27] ---**
It'll put a load on other parts
if we don't replace it soon.
**[03:30] ---**
There's not much energy left, either.
We need to find a place to recharge.
**[03:34] ---**
I wish I could go there
and work on them myself...
**[03:38] ---**
Out of the question!
**[03:39] ---**
Why do you think we
returned to HQ separately?
**[03:43] ---**
Do you want the Asian military to find us?
**[03:45] ---**
Well then, I'll have a local helper
arrange for substitute parts.
**[03:50] ---**
That way, you guys can still move.
**[03:53] ---**
Just keep in mind that any
vigorous movements or combat
**[03:55] ---**
will still be difficult.
**[03:56] ---**
Roger that.
**[03:58] ---**
What now?
**[03:59] ---**
We're running low on food as well.
Let's stop by a nearby city.
**[04:03] ---**
Don't forget to recharge us!
**[04:16] ---**
That hits the spot!
**[04:18] ---**
It'll take some time since we're slowly
recharging to avoid detection.
**[04:23] ---**
But with this much camouflage, it'll be
fully charged long before we're found.
**[04:27] ---**
Right. We'll be on alert and will be
connected to your cellphones.
**[04:32] ---**
Okay, let's go.
**[04:33] ---**
O-Okay.
**[04:42] ---**
"Confirm your reservation"
**[04:44] ---**
"Confirm your reservation"
"You have one room reserved"
**[04:46] ---**
This impresses you? You're so lame.
**[04:48] ---**
Give me a break! I never had to stay
at a hotel when I was in Oceanian terri--
**[04:54] ---**
Don't mention other territories, idiot.
We want to avoid suspicion.
**[04:59] ---**
Oh...
**[05:03] ---**
S-Sorry...
**[05:07] ---**
Anyway, why don't you two
hit the showers? You both smell.
**[05:11] ---**
How can you tell?
**[05:13] ---**
Do you have an odor detection sensor?
**[05:15] ---**
I can tell from other people's reactions.
**[05:21] ---**
Hurry up and wash yourselves.
Don't forget to clean your clothes, too.
**[05:28] ---**
I don't smell. I don't smell.
I don't smell.
**[05:31] ---**
I don't smell. I don't smell.
I don't smell.
**[05:34] ---**
I don't smell!

**[05:45] ---**
"Scratch Kitchen: Taotao"
I'm glad we were able to
grab some stuff, too.
**[05:46] ---**
I'm glad we were able to
grab some stuff, too.
**[05:48] ---**
Yeah. Ms. Misuzu left us a message.
**[05:51] ---**
Looks like the parts are ready.
We'll go pick them up tomorrow.
**[05:56] ---**
Okay.
**[05:57] ---**
Thank you for the food!
**[06:02] ---**
It's been a while since
I had a decent meal.
**[06:12] ---**
You don't like those?
**[06:14] ---**
Gashin's a picky eater. Not only does he
hate carrots and peppers,
**[06:18] ---**
but he also refuses to eat
cucumbers or eggplants as well.
**[06:22] ---**
You're like a kid.
**[06:23] ---**
What?!
**[06:24] ---**
S-Sorry...
**[06:31] ---**
I never had a lot of friends, so I don't
know what to do in moments like these.
**[06:37] ---**
It's like I don't know how friendly
or distant I should be...
**[06:42] ---**
Don't feel bad, Amou!
**[06:44] ---**
Gashin's only glaring
to hide his embarrassment.
**[06:49] ---**
Yeah, that's right! There's nothing
he can say because it's true!
**[06:52] ---**
Shut up.
**[06:53] ---**
Feel free to call these things out, Amou.
**[06:55] ---**
Gashin doesn't listen to me anymore,
but maybe if it comes from a friend...
**[07:01] ---**
But he's not really the listening type!
**[07:04] ---**
You need to shut up.
**[07:05] ---**
This is payback for calling Amou lame!
**[07:08] ---**
What?!
**[07:09] ---**
Mark my words! If you bully
the Japanese people like this ever again,
**[07:14] ---**
I, no, Kenbu will make sure
that you're crushed!
**[07:19] ---**
We'll be watching your every move!
**[07:22] ---**
Thanks to this video,
the AFTE is under international scrutiny.
**[07:28] ---**
They're trying to put out the fires,
but it'll take some time.
**[07:31] ---**
The revolutionary hero, huh?
**[07:34] ---**
This is great. Just great,
don't you think, Oliver?
**[07:38] ---**
Sir?
**[07:39] ---**
I was getting bored of coastal security.
Now we can have an all-out battle.
**[07:45] ---**
Afterall, we now have just cause:
save the Japanese people from oppression.
**[07:52] ---**
We can blame everything on the Asian
military even if we go a little overboard.
**[07:56] ---**
I can't wait. Every cell in my body
is tap dancing with joy.
**[08:00] ---**
So you have a plan then?
**[08:02] ---**
Yes. We'll attack the AFTE territory
and make it our bridgehead.
**[08:08] ---**
Make the necessary arrangements.
**[08:08] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[08:16] ---**
The smell of blood and smoke
is the highlight of a battlefield.
**[08:34] ---**
"East Bound City Line B"
**[08:45] ---**
Look.
**[08:48] ---**
The city of AFTE and the city
where Japanese people live.
**[08:56] ---**
Pleasure and control
versus poverty and slavery...
**[09:00] ---**
This is the current state of Japan.
**[09:05] ---**
One day, I'm going to change this.
That's a promise.
**[09:10] ---**
Yeah.

This is the place.
**[09:39] ---**
Welcome!
**[09:44] ---**
You know the AFTE laws.
I can't sell any liquor to kids.
**[09:48] ---**
We're running an errand.
**[09:50] ---**
Doesn't matter. A guardian
needs to be present.
**[09:52] ---**
Hattan Nishiki.
C10M *koji* starter. Brewery kit.
**[09:57] ---**
It should be under the name Maki Misuzu.
**[10:03] ---**
Wait there.
**[10:06] ---**
What's going on?
**[10:07] ---**
Most helpers have a front.
**[10:10] ---**
That was a cipher, a secret code.
**[10:13] ---**
We ask for them to gather intel,
or ship and store supplies.
**[10:18] ---**
That's how our organization works.
**[10:23] ---**
Here they are. Oof, they're heavy.
**[10:26] ---**
They aren't authentic parts,
so they won't last.
**[10:29] ---**
But they should be enough
to get you moving again.
**[10:33] ---**
Hey, you're that kid
who fought the Asian military.
**[10:36] ---**
Uh, that was--
**[10:38] ---**
You were absolutely amazing!
**[10:41] ---**
It was a rewarding moment.
We're counting on you.
**[10:44] ---**
Oh, of course. Thank you.
**[10:52] ---**
You're a celebrity.
**[10:53] ---**
I told you, I wasn't--
**[10:54] ---**
He wasn't lying when
he said he's counting on you.
**[10:58] ---**
That's what drives us to fight.
**[11:04] ---**
Yeah, I get it.
**[11:13] ---**
Hey, is that cargo ship scheduled
to be at the port today?
**[11:17] ---**
I'm checking now. I'm assuming
it was cleared if it's there, but...
**[11:45] ---**
We're under attack
by the Oceanian military!
**[12:22] ---**
How could we have allowed
the enemy to infiltrate us?!
**[12:25] ---**
We currently have two platoons
handling the situation.
**[12:28] ---**
I expect nothing less.
Send reinforcements.
**[12:30] ---**
Damn the Oceanians and their sneaky tactic
of masquerading as a cargo ship.
**[12:35] ---**
I didn't think they'd act so quickly.
**[12:37] ---**
Hiding behind public opinion?
We'll show them.
**[12:50] ---**
You two! Refugees need to go this way!
**[12:53] ---**
Oh, but we're actually--
**[12:56] ---**
Just do what they say. It's over if they
suspect something and check our bags.
**[13:01] ---**
O-Okay, got it.
**[13:04] ---**
Two new enemy reinforcement
platoons have arrived!
**[13:07] ---**
Not fast enough. Plus, sending troops
in increments is a foolish strategy!
**[13:13] ---**
Spread out the battlefront! We're going
for their local command center!
**[13:17] ---**
Don't hold back! Destroy the enemy units!
**[13:20] ---**
Trample on the urban districts
and march forward!
**[13:44] ---**
The battle is reaching the city limits.
**[13:46] ---**
Evacuating the Japanese people is the
last thing on the Asian military's mind.
**[13:49] ---**
We have to do something!
**[13:51] ---**
Leave it to me! I'll do what I did
last time, but in reverse.
**[13:54] ---**
In reverse?
**[13:55] ---**
I'll hack into their cellphones
and guide them to safety.
**[14:00] ---**
I'll have to simultaneously analyze
the map and tactical situation data, but--
**[14:03] ---**
Let me help.
**[14:04] ---**
Hey, don't push...
**[14:05] ---**
We'll also use the display monitors
in the city. Just sit back and watch.
**[14:15] ---**
It's okay, don't be scared.
**[14:17] ---**
Hey, can you hear me?
**[14:19] ---**
Say something if you can.
**[14:22] ---**
--What...?
--A lamb?
**[14:25] ---**
Y-Yup, a lamb. I'm a lamb. Baa.
**[14:30] ---**
What's your name, sweetie?
**[14:31] ---**
Mami.
**[14:33] ---**
I see! Well, Mami, I'm gonna show
your mom where to go for safety.
**[14:37] ---**
Can you protect your mom
and not let go of her hand?
**[14:40] ---**
Okay, I can do that!
**[14:43] ---**
Good. Now's your chance, go!
**[14:47] ---**
Keep going straight
and head for the underpass.
**[14:50] ---**

Don't worry,
I'll keep giving you directions.
**[14:52] ---**
Don't worry,
I'll keep giving you directions.
**[14:54] ---**
Turn right. I'll direct you again
once you reach the end.
**[14:58] ---**
You're almost there!
**[15:00] ---**
How's it going?
**[15:01] ---**
Little by little,
people are getting to safety.
**[15:04] ---**
But there are many more.
We have to stay alert.
**[15:08] ---**
Dammit, there's too much data to process.
**[15:11] ---**
It's hogging all my resources!
**[15:13] ---**
We need to help, too!
**[15:14] ---**
Help how?
**[15:16] ---**
Like calling Kenbu and Jogan
here to stop the fighting.
**[15:19] ---**
Have you forgotten that our AMAIMs
aren't in any condition to fight?
**[15:24] ---**
Even *with* the parts.
**[15:27] ---**
Besides, it's too far out.
It'll take too long for them to get here.
**[15:32] ---**
So we're just gonna let this happen?!
**[15:34] ---**
Do you think I'm happy
with this situation?!
**[15:40] ---**
Dammit!
**[15:42] ---**
Crap, the frontline is
drawing near the evac site!
**[15:47] ---**
The frontline's been breached!
**[15:49] ---**
The evac site will--
**[15:50] ---**
Leave it.
**[15:52] ---**
Their goal is the local command center.
**[15:54] ---**
We need to do everything to
protect it until backup arrives.
**[15:59] ---**
We have guards stationed on site, right?
**[16:00] ---**
Yes, about two units.
**[16:02] ---**
Then we have our excuse.
**[16:05] ---**
We can turn the tables
on the Oceanian military
**[16:10] ---**
if something happens there.
**[16:13] ---**
Hey, let us out of here!
**[16:15] ---**
They're fighting nearby, aren't they?!
**[16:16] ---**
I don't wanna die!
**[16:17] ---**
No, we haven't received our orders!
Stay where you are, or else!
**[16:28] ---**
--Oh, no!
--Step away!
**[16:36] ---**
Run!
**[16:46] ---**
Hold it right there, villains!
**[16:53] ---**
That AMAIM...
**[16:56] ---**
Is that the one Boss was talking about?
**[16:58] ---**
We lost communication with platoon 4!
**[17:00] ---**
What?!
**[17:04] ---**
An unidentified AMAIM is closing in
on the frontline at an alarming speed!
**[17:08] ---**
How is it jumping so far?
**[17:12] ---**
Hey, now! I can't just
ignore a war now, can I?!
**[17:17] ---**
You must be a devil
to stain this peaceful city with blood!
**[17:23] ---**
Bring it on, I'll take you all down!
**[17:26] ---**
The knight in shining armor,
Reiki is here!
**[17:31] ---**
Wh-What is that AMAIM?
**[17:32] ---**
Doesn't matter! Destroy them all,
including that idiot!
**[18:09] ---**
What?!
**[18:10] ---**
All units, open fire!
**[18:16] ---**
It can fly?!
**[19:39] ---**
Platoons 3 and 5 have been wiped out.
**[19:43] ---**
We've lost 40% of our forces.
**[19:49] ---**
Fall back.
**[19:51] ---**
Statistically, this is
a catastrophic defeat!
**[19:55] ---**
If we keep at it, we'll be dead
long before we establish a bridgehead!
**[19:59] ---**
We have to retreat before they can
cut us off. Gather the troops!
**[20:03] ---**
Y-Yes, sir!
**[20:09] ---**
Incredible...
**[20:11] ---**
It sure made an impression.
**[20:13] ---**
Looks like that AMAIM is one of ours.
**[20:17] ---**
What?!
**[20:18] ---**
It sent us the coordinates
for the rendezvous point.
**[20:42] ---**
U-Um, thanks for what you did back there.
**[20:45] ---**
It was amazing! You fought off both
the Oceanian and Asian military--
**[20:49] ---**
The one with the pigtails is Shiiba Amou,
and spiky head is Tezuka Gashin?
**[20:54] ---**
P-Pigtails?
**[20:55] ---**
Spiky head?!
**[20:56] ---**
And their partners Gai and Kei.
**[20:59] ---**
I'm Angelo, an Italian gentleman
that adores women and hates men.
**[21:05] ---**
Italian gentleman?
**[21:06] ---**
Has it lost its mind?
**[21:08] ---**
Watch your mouth. Who do you think
saved your sorry butts?
**[21:13] ---**
You should thank me, worship me,
answer at my beck and call!
**[21:17] ---**
Swear to me that you will give
your lives to me as my underlings.
**[21:22] ---**
It must be an idiot.
**[21:23] ---**
I think its logic program is shot.
**[21:26] ---**
Seems like it.
**[21:27] ---**
Really, is the concept of
"gratitude" foreign to you?
**[21:31] ---**
I expect better for my princess' servants.
**[21:36] ---**
Princess?
**[21:37] ---**
If you would, my princess, please come out
to speak to these ignorant servants.
**[21:41] ---**
Who're you calling ignorant servants?!
**[21:43] ---**
Please grace us with your presence.
**[22:05] ---**
Oh, n-nice to meet you! I'm--
**[22:08] ---**
They already know our names, remember?
**[22:11] ---**
Oh, yeah.

**[00:18] ---**
I'm sorry I just started
crying back there.
**[00:22] ---**
I'm so embarrassed...
**[00:23] ---**
Don't worry about it.
We actually owe you, so thanks.
**[00:28] ---**
They sent me to help with the fighting
that erupted nearby. I'm glad I did okay.
**[00:34] ---**
Oh! I never introduced myself!
I'm Shishibe Shion. Nice to meet you.
**[00:40] ---**
N-Nice to meet you.
**[00:42] ---**
Um...
**[00:44] ---**
Gashin, say something!
**[00:47] ---**
This isn't important.
**[00:50] ---**
Anyway, that move you did
back there was so cool!
**[00:54] ---**
I used to take *naginata* lessons
when I was a kid,
**[00:58] ---**
and thanks to our AMAIM, I'm able to fly.
**[01:02] ---**
I was just a bit scared since
this was my first actual fight.
**[01:06] ---**
Your first?
**[01:08] ---**
I used to be Yatagarasu's helper
to support their movement.
**[01:13] ---**
But this one told me I'd be a good pilot.
**[01:16] ---**
I have good foresight.
**[01:18] ---**
I bet she was just your type.
**[01:20] ---**
I think you're right.
**[01:21] ---**
Sure, that accounts for
100% of my reasoning.
**[01:25] ---**
That was your *only* reason?!
**[01:26] ---**
Who cries just because
it's their first fight?
**[01:29] ---**
Tezuka!
**[01:30] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[01:31] ---**
Unlike you, my princess is
a delicate flower, you dumbass!
**[01:34] ---**
What?
**[01:35] ---**
Stop it, Nayuta.
**[01:37] ---**
Nayuta?
**[01:38] ---**
I thought you said your name's Angelo.
**[01:40] ---**
Nayuta is an alias I use to keep
a low profile. Angelo is my soul's name.
**[01:46] ---**
Do you get it?
**[01:47] ---**
Not at all...
**[01:48] ---**
I don't expect a simple AI to
comprehend my logic algorithm.
**[01:52] ---**
That's it, you're going down!
**[01:53] ---**
Bring it!
**[02:08] ---**
This is Captain Brad Watt and Warrant
Officer Raymond Hardy, reporting for duty.
**[02:31] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:48] ---**
I specifically called you here because
our intelligence team has located Ghost.
**[03:54] ---**
Take a look.
**[03:56] ---**
Past records prove that
**[03:57] ---**
Ghost is an unmanned unit
with an autonomous AI.
**[04:04] ---**
The Japanese terrorists seem to
also possess similar Als,
**[04:08] ---**
but their procurement method is unknown.
**[04:10] ---**
However, its combat ability
is extremely impressive.
**[04:14] ---**
No one, including the North American,
Asian, Eurasian, and Oceanian military,
**[04:19] ---**
has succeeded in the practical
applications of an autonomous AI.
**[04:24] ---**
To gain the upper hand, the top brass
wants to obtain it at any cost.
**[04:30] ---**
We need you to capture or destroy Ghost.
**[04:36] ---**
Destroy, sir?
**[04:38] ---**
To stop others from obtaining it instead.
**[04:42] ---**
Ghost is currently
hiding in Asian territory.
**[04:45] ---**
But the Asian military has their hands
full with the Oceanians, leaving us open.
**[04:50] ---**
This is our chance. Pick your own team
and figure out a plan. Got it?
**[04:57] ---**
Understood, sir!
**[05:00] ---**
It's been a while, Brad.
**[05:02] ---**
You should consider going home
during your next leave.
**[05:05] ---**
Your mother wants to see you.
**[05:07] ---**
I understand, Father.
**[05:13] ---**
You're going to cram every job there is
into your schedule, aren't you?
**[05:17] ---**
During your next leave.
**[05:19] ---**
By the time I'm done with one mission,
another takes its place.
**[05:24] ---**
It is what it is.
**[05:27] ---**
I still can't get used to this.
**[05:29] ---**
I haven't been to Tokyo in two years,
but it's changed so much.
**[05:36] ---**
Hey, since we're here,
why don't we stop by somewhere?
**[05:45] ---**
"Taiyaki"
**[05:45] ---**
"Taiyaki" A *taiyaki* shop?
**[05:47] ---**
"Taiyaki"
I guarantee you it's the best
in the country. It's delicious.
**[05:52] ---**
"Taiyaki" Thank you for waiting.
**[05:58] ---**
I think you gave me too much.
**[06:00] ---**
It's our way of saying thank you
to the North American Confederation.
**[06:06] ---**
This is nothing compared to the hard work
you do to restore our country.
**[06:13] ---**
Thank you.
**[06:15] ---**
"Restoration of Japan"
sounds nice, but in reality,
**[06:18] ---**
most of Tokyo,
including the land and buildings,
**[06:20] ---**
is under the control of
our military, government,
**[06:23] ---**
or companies associated to NAC.
**[06:28] ---**
Even Japan's defense system
is under our command.
**[06:32] ---**
Gaining back autonomy while its capital
is still under the controls of NAC...
**[06:38] ---**
It will slowly but surely result in
the colonization of Japan.
**[06:41] ---**
Captain, keep your voice down.
**[06:43] ---**
Do they not understand this,
or are they turning a blind eye?
**[06:48] ---**
It's even possible that Japan
would become a new state.
**[06:53] ---**
Are you against that?
**[06:57] ---**
I suppose, if it means not being able
to eat these treats anymore.
**[07:04] ---**
Yes, they're certainly delicious.
**[07:07] ---**
What did I tell you?
**[07:12] ---**
It's not that I don't want to go home.
**[07:16] ---**
As you're aware, I'm an adopted son
of Deputy Commander Spears.
**[07:21] ---**
There were other children
like me in his household.
**[07:25] ---**
But I was never able to
fit in like they were able to.
**[07:30] ---**
I've had many sleepless nights.
**[07:33] ---**
One day, Father took me to the base
**[07:38] ---**
and I saw an AMAIM for the first time.
**[07:42] ---**
I couldn't help but admire it.
**[07:45] ---**
I snuck into the cockpit
**[07:50] ---**
and was finally able to sleep soundly.
**[07:53] ---**
That was the first time since the day
I was adopted by the Spears family.
**[07:58] ---**
Is that why you prefer manned AMAIMs?
**[08:00] ---**
I'm not sure, but it certainly makes up
a core part of who I am as a soldier.
**[08:09] ---**
All right, let's get to work.
**[08:15] ---**
Why do we have to stay at a hotel?
**[08:19] ---**
We can't let my princess camp out.
Besides, this is perfect for her.
**[08:24] ---**
It's a waste of money.
**[08:25] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[08:26] ---**
Gashin, you should learn
a thing or two about empathy.
**[08:30] ---**
What?
**[08:32] ---**
Now that there are three AMAIMs, it's got
me wondering where they come from.
**[08:38] ---**
No other militaries
have anything like them.
**[08:41] ---**
A company called Brenson Corp provides
goods and services to the Resistance.
**[08:46] ---**
Apparently, their HQ's in Europe,
but who knows?
**[08:51] ---**
It's an off-the-record company.
**[08:54] ---**
Can they be trusted?
**[08:55] ---**
So far, we've never had any problems.
They've been extremely cooperative.
**[09:00] ---**
Is that where you two were developed, too?
**[09:02] ---**
No, we, I-LeS, were developed
by a different institution.
**[09:06] ---**
I-LeS?
**[09:07] ---**
Intelligence Learning System.
**[09:10] ---**
An AI system capable of
learning on its own.
**[09:13] ---**
"Autonomous AI" is close enough.
**[09:17] ---**
"MAILeS" is what Yatagarasu and
Brenson Corp call AMAIMs with I-LeS.
**[09:24] ---**
I see...
**[09:26] ---**
I took a look at Gai's source code,
and I saw a few similarities with ours.
**[09:32] ---**
Huh?
**[09:32] ---**
Each developer has their own
particular way of writing code,
**[09:35] ---**
so it's safe to say we were
created by the same person.
**[09:41] ---**
But I don't know why Gai was
discarded in Oceanian territory.
**[09:46] ---**
So you're like siblings?
**[09:47] ---**
Right you are.
**[09:49] ---**
That's so depressing.
**[09:50] ---**
--Hey, that's my line!
--Ow! You're dead meat!
**[09:53] ---**
Stop fighting in such a tight space.
**[09:56] ---**
Play nice.
**[09:57] ---**
Jeez...
**[10:00] ---**
I wonder if Gai wants to know
how it ended up in that place?
**[10:06] ---**
Not really. It's not like knowing
the reason will change anything.
**[10:11] ---**
Besides, I like the situation
I found myself in.
**[10:14] ---**
We're besties, after all!
**[10:17] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:28] ---**
First Lieutenant Roger Young
and Second Lieutenant Sofia Louis,
**[10:31] ---**
reporting for duty!
**[10:33] ---**
Thank you for coming.
**[10:37] ---**
Frankly, I'm not happy
with this mission, sir.
**[10:40] ---**
Second Lieutenant...
**[10:41] ---**
Ghost is dangerous, so why risk lives
by sending in manned AMAIMs?
**[10:47] ---**
Wouldn't unmanned AMAIMs be sufficient?
**[10:49] ---**
That would require an entire troop.
**[10:52] ---**
Even with their hands full,
the Asian military won't let us slip by.
**[10:58] ---**
That's why I picked just two of our
best pilots. Only a select few are going.
**[11:04] ---**
I can make it work!
**[11:05] ---**
Second Lieutenant!
**[11:08] ---**
I know you're good.
**[11:11] ---**
You won the Tactical Simulation
Match twice in a row, yes?
**[11:15] ---**
But you can prove your worth later.
**[11:19] ---**
Follow my lead on this one.
**[11:22] ---**
If you can't, there may never
be a next time.
**[11:28] ---**
This way. Let's start
our strategy meeting.
**[11:41] ---**
Let's go. We need to get to HQ by today.
**[11:44] ---**
Okay.
**[11:51] ---**
The interference around here is strong,
so the Asian military won't find us.
**[11:56] ---**
Are you two nervous?
**[11:59] ---**
Just a little.
**[12:00] ---**
Absolutely not.
**[12:03] ---**
That's reassuring, but keep your guard up.
We're up against a formidable enemy.
**[12:28] ---**
Our operatives will cut off the power
to the cave where Ghost is hiding.
**[12:34] ---**
At the same time, we'll blow up
all the exits except one.
**[12:40] ---**
It's time.
**[12:46] ---**
Without power, it'll eventually run out
of energy if it tries to wait us out.
**[12:52] ---**
It'll have no choice but to come out
from the only remaining exit.
**[12:57] ---**
Even if it knows it's a trap.
**[12:59] ---**
Do you think this'll work?
**[13:01] ---**
Yes. Ghost is extremely violent
and aggressive. It won't think twice.
**[13:11] ---**
We're in place.
**[13:13] ---**
Activate!
**[13:17] ---**
Dropping off the AMAIMs.
**[13:33] ---**
Nice to meet you, Ghost.
I'm here for your head.
**[13:40] ---**
Stick to the script! Fan out!
**[14:00] ---**
Its armor's tough!
**[14:08] ---**
Don't think we're playing dirty
by ganging up on you, Ghost.
**[14:11] ---**
Numbers have always been
important in wars.
**[14:16] ---**
It's hesitating.
**[14:18] ---**
It probably doesn't have much combat
experience against manned AMAIMs.
**[14:21] ---**
It hasn't formulated combat patterns
for this kind of battle.
**[14:24] ---**
Now's our chance!
**[14:26] ---**
Roger that!
**[14:37] ---**
You're not getting away!
**[14:49] ---**
Warrant Officer Hardy!
**[14:53] ---**
--What?!
--Second Lieutenant!
**[15:04] ---**
Launching seekers!
**[15:16] ---**
A jamming feature?!
**[15:22] ---**
Tech!
**[15:25] ---**
I'm going to borrow this!
**[15:40] ---**
What?!
**[15:49] ---**
Purge left arm!
**[15:54] ---**
First Lieutenant!
**[15:55] ---**
I'm fine!
**[16:05] ---**
Wh-What kind of robot is that?! Our intel
never said anything about that feature!
**[16:10] ---**
Even its movements are insane!
It pretended to target me, but--
**[16:15] ---**
It was actually trying to lure me out?
**[16:17] ---**
Is it already learning how to combat
people and play mind games?
**[16:24] ---**
If that's true,
this is going to be tricky.
**[16:33] ---**
What is it?
**[16:34] ---**
I don't know. I thought I heard something.
**[16:38] ---**
Me, too. Did anyone else hear it?
**[16:41] ---**
--No.
--Nope.
**[16:43] ---**
No.
**[16:44] ---**
I didn't detect any suspicious audio data.
**[16:47] ---**
Did we imagine it?
**[16:49] ---**
Okay, we'll switch at the next block.
**[16:52] ---**
R-Right.
**[17:00] ---**
This is crazy!
**[17:02] ---**
It's impervious to our attacks.
**[17:04] ---**
It's improving.
**[17:06] ---**
It's growing stronger
as time goes on... What a monster!
**[17:10] ---**
Let's go! We need to create
an opening for them!
**[17:18] ---**
No, don't get too close!
**[17:23] ---**
Did we do it?!
**[17:34] ---**
It highjacked them?!
**[17:35] ---**
Dammit, how is it doing that?!
**[17:37] ---**
Roger!
**[17:46] ---**
First Lieutenant!
**[17:54] ---**
Ray, Sofia, can you grant me
access to your AMAIMs?
**[18:01] ---**
It's not that I don't believe
in your ability, but...
**[18:05] ---**
I understand. It's just like old times.
**[18:10] ---**
We'll do as you say. I owe you my life.
**[18:16] ---**
Thank you. We're going all-in
to win this fight!
**[18:45] ---**
Amazing... He's evading the enemy's
attacks with such precision...
**[18:49] ---**
This is how he commands.
**[18:55] ---**
Depending on the situation,
the pilot's judgement is prioritized.
**[18:59] ---**
I bet the combat Als wouldn't
think to use guns like this.
**[19:12] ---**
Charge in!
**[19:13] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[19:24] ---**
You're mine!
**[19:27] ---**
Second Lieutenant!
**[19:28] ---**
What?! From the ground?!
**[19:34] ---**
Ghost!
**[20:00] ---**
Roger...
**[20:03] ---**
His AI was just barely functioning.
It was only enough for one shot, but...
**[20:08] ---**
I'm sorry, Roger. I may have
tarnished your death, but...
**[20:19] ---**
I swear on your honor...
**[20:25] ---**
...that I'm going to kill Ghost!
**[20:50] ---**
What?!
**[20:53] ---**
It's using the last aircraft!
**[21:05] ---**
Damn you, Ghost!
**[21:09] ---**
I promise to beat you
and capture you!
**[21:13] ---**
Remember my name, Brad Watt!
**[21:28] ---**
Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Udou Kiryu,
the head of Yatagarasu.
**[21:37] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[21:38] ---**
Thank you for coming.
**[21:41] ---**
Gashin, Shion,
we appreciate your hard work.
**[21:43] ---**
It was no problem...
**[21:46] ---**
Sorry to immediately get down to business,
but I'd like you to meet someone.
**[21:52] ---**
He is our liaison to Brenson Corp.
**[21:58] ---**
I'm just a salesperson.
**[22:03] ---**
Hello, it's great to meet
the young pilots of Yatagarasu.
**[22:07] ---**
I'm German Gobert.
**[22:10] ---**
I'd like to establish
a good relationship with you.
**[22:18] ---**
Let's keep this business
of war thriving, shall we?

I just want you to know that
we're not only interested in fighting.

**[00:17] ---**
Is that...?
**[00:37] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[01:58] ---**
Let me reintroduce myself. I'm German
Gobert, a salesperson from Brenson Corp.
**[02:04] ---**
Our company can provide you
with anything that's war-related.
**[02:08] ---**
I'll be around for a few days, so please
let me know if you need anything.
**[02:16] ---**
I actually came to deliver the new armor,
**[02:19] ---**
but I asked if I could meet you.
**[02:23] ---**
It's an honor to meet the pilots
Yatagarasu prides themselves in.
**[02:26] ---**
I heard great things about you.
I'm glad Yatagarasu is in good hands.
**[02:32] ---**
The Resistance needs
all the help we can get.
**[02:40] ---**
You know, I would love it if you would
join us to see the new armor.
**[02:45] ---**
I do hope it meets your expectations.
**[02:51] ---**
Kenbu has a newly engineered arm,
**[02:53] ---**
while grenade launchers
were added to Jogan
**[02:55] ---**
along with a 45mm rapid fire handgun.
**[02:58] ---**
They're all cutting edge
close-combat equipment.
**[03:01] ---**
The handgun is housed in
a weapon rack, just like with Kenbu.
**[03:04] ---**
The grenade launchers are
installed on both shoulders,
**[03:07] ---**
capable of launching various grenades
while acting as a shield.
**[03:11] ---**
The new arm on Kenbu
has retractable claws installed,
**[03:15] ---**
which uses the same super thermal
vibration technology as the combat sword.
**[03:19] ---**
How is it engineered to
counter-balance claws that size?
**[03:25] ---**
No battery pack means it's being
directly powered by the robot.
**[03:30] ---**
That means I can fight without
worrying about battery power. I see...
**[03:35] ---**
You have eyes for the geeky stuff.
**[03:39] ---**
It's me.
**[03:40] ---**
I see. All right, I'll be there.
**[03:44] ---**
Yes, please take care
of them until we arrive.
**[03:46] ---**
Did something happen?
**[03:48] ---**
Do you want to tag along?
**[04:19] ---**
People really live here.
**[04:21] ---**
According to the records,
this village was deserted 20 years ago.
**[04:25] ---**
It should be abandoned.
**[04:29] ---**
This is our chairman
who I spoke to you about.
**[04:32] ---**
Nice to meet you. I'm Udou.
**[04:38] ---**
I'm Fudou Yuuji, the elder of
the Fudou family that resides here.
**[04:45] ---**
Thank you for meeting us.
**[04:47] ---**
Not at all. Kumai has explained
your situation to me.
**[04:51] ---**
This is the data pertaining
to the Fudou family we created.
**[04:54] ---**
I see. So, there are currently
nine people living here?
**[04:59] ---**
Yes, for about a week.
**[05:02] ---**
We have no water or electricity,
but at least we have shelter...
**[05:07] ---**
Daddy!
**[05:10] ---**
--Daddy?!
--Y-You didn't tell me...
**[05:12] ---**
C-Congratulations!
**[05:13] ---**
N-No!
**[05:15] ---**
What?
**[05:16] ---**
Stop that, Riko! I'm sorry,
she lost her father when she was a baby,
**[05:21] ---**
so she does this to people sometimes.
Please excuse her.
**[05:25] ---**
It's fine...
**[05:28] ---**
We're about to run out of food, but we can
get water and fish from the river.
**[05:34] ---**
We're all working together to make due.
**[05:37] ---**
Riko's good at finding mushrooms!
**[05:39] ---**
I can start a fire!
**[05:43] ---**
Why go through so much
trouble to stay here?
**[05:46] ---**
Our city turned into a war zone.
**[05:49] ---**
We stayed at an evacuation center,
but that was shut down, too.
**[05:53] ---**
We had no choice but to go back,
but it was completely destroyed.
**[06:00] ---**
Same goes for our relatives, and we barely
made it to this abandoned village.
**[06:06] ---**
It's a tough life, but we'll be
safe from the war here.
**[06:12] ---**
We plan on staying here
for the safety of our family.
**[06:18] ---**
I see.
**[06:21] ---**
But you don't have electricity or water,
and are running low on food.
**[06:25] ---**
That's right.
**[06:26] ---**
Is there anything we can do to help?
**[06:31] ---**
What?
**[06:31] ---**
It's only natural for us to help out
our friends who lost so much in the war.
**[06:37] ---**
Thank you so much!
**[06:38] ---**
Yay! I get to live with Daddy!
**[06:47] ---**
We really do give people a helping hand...
**[06:51] ---**
Fighting isn't the only thing
Yatagarasu does.
**[06:55] ---**
Helping those who lost
their homes in the war
**[06:58] ---**
will also lead to
the restoration of Japan.
**[07:02] ---**
That's what the chairman believes in.
**[07:11] ---**
Our mission here is to improve
their living environment.
**[07:17] ---**
They're short on water,
electricity, food, everything.
**[07:20] ---**
Water and electricity have been cut off,
so we need to think of an alternative.
**[07:27] ---**
Should we pull water from the river?
**[07:28] ---**
It's pretty far away.
**[07:30] ---**
How about digging a well?
**[07:31] ---**
Maybe, but it'll have to be pretty deep.
**[07:34] ---**
What about electricity?
**[07:35] ---**
Solar panels are too expensive...
**[07:38] ---**
The geography here prevents
the use of wind power, though.
**[07:40] ---**
Thermal power is gonna be tough, too.
**[07:42] ---**
That leaves us with hydraulic power?
**[07:43] ---**
What to do...
**[07:48] ---**
Okay, we have a plan!
**[07:50] ---**
We'll break into three teams to
build a well, waterwheel, and farmland!
**[07:55] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[07:58] ---**
Ah, I found the motor and battery!
It should run if we can fix them up.
**[08:04] ---**
It needs to be repaired? Can you do it?
**[08:07] ---**
Yes!
**[08:09] ---**
An excavator, building materials...
Are you sure about this?
**[08:14] ---**
There's no money in charity, you know?
**[08:16] ---**
Of course! It's to protect
the Japanese people.
**[08:20] ---**
Well, we're grateful to have any business.
**[08:23] ---**
I'll arrange everything
to be delivered by tomorrow.
**[08:26] ---**
I appreciate you procuring
things outside your domain.
**[08:28] ---**
Not at all. We're in this together.
Thank you for the payment.
**[08:37] ---**
Aren't you in a good mood?
**[08:39] ---**
Huh? Oh, well, it's been
a while since I tinkered.
**[08:42] ---**
Let me know if you need help.
**[08:45] ---**
Thanks.
**[08:55] ---**
You're Atsushi, right?
It's beautiful outside!
**[08:59] ---**
What do you want? I'm busy.
**[09:02] ---**
Don't be like that! We're shorthanded.
**[09:05] ---**
Huh? Hey! Wait a minute!
**[09:09] ---**
Why do I have to do this?
**[09:18] ---**
Look at you! Have you done this before?
**[09:21] ---**
I-I won the championship in
the plasterwork eSports division.
**[09:27] ---**
I see. No wonder you're so good at it.
**[09:30] ---**
It's nothing...
**[09:32] ---**
Let's fix the floors after this!
**[09:33] ---**
Huh?!
**[09:38] ---**
Let's drill the well around here.
**[09:40] ---**
Okay.
**[09:42] ---**
Hey, your daughter's here, Daddy!
**[09:50] ---**
I'm working right now.
**[10:14] ---**
Mm...
**[10:15] ---**
It's delicious.
**[10:18] ---**
Yeah! Even more so
after a hard day's work!
**[10:23] ---**
Thank you for the food!
**[10:26] ---**
Why don't you guys start eating, too?
**[10:28] ---**
--All right!
--I'm starving...
**[10:30] ---**
Thank you so much for helping.
**[10:33] ---**
Please, this is the least I can do.
**[10:36] ---**
Mommy is a chef!
**[10:38] ---**
Oh, is that so?
**[10:43] ---**
How can you be so delicate with machine
maintenance but so bad with rice balls?
**[11:00] ---**
Stop being picky!
**[11:02] ---**
Riko loves carrots!
**[11:04] ---**
Aw, you're such a good girl, Riko.
It makes our effort worthwhile.
**[11:12] ---**
Isn't this delicious?
**[11:14] ---**
Yeah! I want Salisbury steak tomorrow!
**[11:16] ---**
What? D-Don't be silly!
**[11:19] ---**
All right! We'll do what we can!
**[11:21] ---**
--What?!
--Woohoo!
**[11:23] ---**
I'm so sorry about that...
**[11:24] ---**
Please, don't be.
**[11:26] ---**
We are truly thankful for everything.
**[11:30] ---**
It's been a while since
I've seen my family smiling...
**[11:34] ---**
This place is going to be their new home.
**[11:39] ---**
I want them to grow up to be strong
people, taking pride in being Japanese.
**[11:56] ---**
Wow, ex-champ!
Great work, down to the wire!
**[12:00] ---**
Thanks! It's a little trickier
than doing it with a controller.
**[12:04] ---**
Yeah?
**[12:04] ---**
But it feels great to actually work hard!
**[12:08] ---**
This is the last of it.
**[12:11] ---**
Thanks, Amou.
**[12:12] ---**
Okay, we'll take these up.
Amou, could you clean up?
**[12:17] ---**
The small pieces will be for firewood?
**[12:19] ---**
--Yup!
--Thanks, kid!
**[12:21] ---**
Of course!
**[12:36] ---**
Um, did you need
something, Ms. Shishibe?
**[12:41] ---**
You can call me Shion, Amou.
**[12:43] ---**
Oh, okay then, Shion... What is it?
**[12:50] ---**
See that over there?
**[12:52] ---**
What is it?
**[12:53] ---**
I think it's a round kiln. The previous
villagers must've been using it.
**[12:59] ---**
Huh.
**[13:01] ---**
It'd be a shame to waste it,
so I was thinking of repairing it.
**[13:05] ---**
Maybe it can be used to
bake bread, pizza, or ceramics.
**[13:10] ---**
Ceramics?
**[13:11] ---**
Oh, my grandpa was a potter.
**[13:14] ---**
We lost our kiln,
but I plan on bringing it back!
**[13:19] ---**
Um, I could help with
the repair, if you want?
**[13:24] ---**
Really?!
**[13:26] ---**
Of course.
**[13:34] ---**
Hey.
**[13:36] ---**
Whatcha doing?
**[13:37] ---**
Doing?
**[13:39] ---**
We're fixing the kiln.
**[13:41] ---**
Kiln?
**[13:42] ---**
It's like an old-fashioned oven.
**[13:44] ---**
You can bake lots of things, like bread,
pizza, even bowls and plates!
**[13:49] ---**
Really?! Taku had lots of
pretty plates, didn't you?
**[13:54] ---**
Yeah, but we lost them all...
**[13:59] ---**
Why don't you two make your own, then?
**[14:02] ---**
Huh?
**[14:03] ---**
I'll show you how.
**[14:05] ---**
Woohoo!
**[14:06] ---**
Sounds fun!
**[14:27] ---**
Wow, that's so cool!
**[14:30] ---**
Cool!
**[14:31] ---**
Okay, then. Shall we start?
**[14:48] ---**
Yup, looks good! Good quality clay, too.
**[14:51] ---**
Lemme try!
**[14:52] ---**
Me, too!
**[14:53] ---**
Let's do it!
**[15:04] ---**
Once it's dry and we finish
the biscuit firing, let's paint them too.
**[15:07] ---**
Okay!
**[15:14] ---**
All the materials are installed.
How's it looking over here?
**[15:18] ---**
We're just waiting for the waterworks.
**[15:22] ---**
I'm ready!
**[15:24] ---**
The connection looks good!
**[15:26] ---**
All right, I'm gonna turn it on!
**[15:33] ---**
It's moving smoothly! Great!
**[15:38] ---**
--Is it working?
--Heck yeah!
**[15:41] ---**
This is the good...
**[15:44] ---**
...stuff...?
**[15:47] ---**
What's wrong?
**[15:48] ---**
It's not generating enough.
**[15:50] ---**
What?
**[15:51] ---**
This isn't enough electricity
to support the people living here.
**[15:58] ---**
What do we do?
**[15:59] ---**
We can add another wheel,
or make it bigger?
**[16:06] ---**
It hit the bedrock.
**[16:08] ---**
I figured the hardness would be softer,
but this is unexpected.
**[16:12] ---**
Oh-oh. Is there a hiccup here?
**[16:17] ---**
According to my measurements,
the bedrock is about two meters deep.
**[16:21] ---**
It has little cracks and
the rocks are packed tight.
**[16:24] ---**
It'll be hard to drill through.
**[16:27] ---**
But we also know there's
a water vein right below it.
**[16:31] ---**
The flow amount is expected to be
100 liters per minute! That's plenty.
**[16:36] ---**
Yeah, but we can't get through
the bedrock, right?
**[16:39] ---**
I didn't say we can't.
**[16:42] ---**
We can use explosives,
but it could cause a cave-in.
**[16:46] ---**
We can't take that risk!
Isn't there a safer way?
**[16:50] ---**
We just need to get a pipe through
that can pump the water up, right?
**[16:54] ---**
Right.
**[16:55] ---**
Then, how about this?
**[17:25] ---**
What about now?
**[17:27] ---**
Well, it's better than before,
but still isn't enough.
**[17:29] ---**
--Misuzu's back.
--Hey!
**[17:30] ---**
We need you to come over.
**[17:34] ---**
Cool, right?
**[17:37] ---**
Ms. Misuzu, you're so awesome!
**[17:38] ---**
I'm gonna call it the "Laser and
Pile Bunker Docking Machine"!
**[17:44] ---**
Sounds super cool, right?!
**[17:45] ---**
Why are *you* naming it?
**[17:47] ---**
It's also lame...
**[17:48] ---**
What?!
**[17:50] ---**
So we first melt the bedrock with
the laser, and then use the pile bunker?
**[17:55] ---**
Yup.
**[17:56] ---**
Amou, you use the pile bunker!
**[17:58] ---**
Why me?!
**[18:00] ---**
I'm not gonna operate it if you
won't do it! Period! End of story!
**[18:05] ---**
Hmph!
**[18:06] ---**
What are you saying?
**[18:07] ---**
Hey!
**[18:08] ---**
Future missions may be affected
if he continues to pout.
**[18:12] ---**
Don't worry, we'd have your back
if something were to happen.
**[18:15] ---**
So immature.
**[18:17] ---**
Let's do this! Point one!
**[18:18] ---**
Huh? What?
**[18:30] ---**
Let's! Do! This! Point one!
**[18:35] ---**
Laser output at 85%.
**[18:37] ---**
Adjusting tilt angle to 12 degrees.
Emit beam for ten seconds.
**[18:41] ---**
Point two!
**[18:43] ---**
Laser output at 93%.
Tilt angle to eight degrees.
**[18:45] ---**
Emit beam for eight seconds.
**[18:48] ---**
Moving on to point three.
**[18:51] ---**
Point four.
**[18:52] ---**
Point five.
**[18:53] ---**
Point six.
**[18:55] ---**
Emit beam at the last point!
**[19:01] ---**
Amou! Do your thing!
**[19:02] ---**
"Audio Input"
Amou! Do your thing!
**[19:04] ---**
Audio input?!
**[19:05] ---**
That's right! Here's your line!
**[19:11] ---**
Come on! Lemme hear you roar!
**[19:15] ---**
Amou!
**[19:19] ---**
Attack, Pile Bunker!
**[19:29] ---**
Attack, Pile Bunker...?
**[19:31] ---**
Amou, I didn't know you were
into this kind of stuff.
**[19:33] ---**
Th-That's not it...
**[19:43] ---**
We've got more than enough water flow!
**[19:47] ---**
This is gonna work. Okay!
**[19:50] ---**
I'm good, too!
**[20:12] ---**
Oh yeah, here it comes!
**[20:15] ---**
The amount of power generated
has sky-rocketed!
**[20:23] ---**
Okay, whenever you're ready!
**[20:30] ---**
You wanna do it?
**[20:40] ---**
Okay. One, two, three!
**[21:22] ---**
Thanks to everyone, we have a future now.
**[21:27] ---**
Thank you. Thank you so much.
**[21:38] ---**
The ceramics are done!
**[21:41] ---**
The fruits of your labor!
**[21:42] ---**
"Gashin" "Me"
**[21:44] ---**
Wow! The firing really worked!
**[21:46] ---**
It's so cute!
**[21:48] ---**
I'm glad you like them!
**[21:50] ---**
Daddy! Let's eat dinner
together with this plate!
**[21:52] ---**
We're having stew for dinner.
It'd be hard to eat on a plate.
**[21:56] ---**
That's okay! And this time,
eat your carrots.
**[22:08] ---**
We should go, too.
**[22:09] ---**
Right!

Building homes was great,
wasn't it, Amou?
**[23:58] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
Yeah, I had a great time.
I really do love making things.
**[24:04] ---**
It's not bad.
**[24:05] ---**
Hey, that person's been staring at you
forever, Tezuka. Do you know him?

**[00:05] ---**
Have I been making the wrong decisions?
**[00:10] ---**
That time...?
**[00:13] ---**
That other time?
**[00:15] ---**
Will I make the wrong decision again?
**[00:22] ---**
Okay, that should be everything
for the first delivery.
**[00:26] ---**
You can catch the next vehicle arriving
around 4pm to get back to HQ.
**[00:31] ---**
All right.
**[00:42] ---**
Does shopping for supplies
always go like this?
**[00:45] ---**
Today was mainly just
personal stuff for our members.
**[00:49] ---**
No wonder we had
such a long shopping list.
**[00:52] ---**
Are you Gashin...?
**[00:58] ---**
I knew it! It's been so long, Gashin!
**[01:04] ---**
Big brother Yuu!
**[01:19] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[02:40] ---**
You're so big now.
**[02:42] ---**
You've grown into a handsome guy.
**[02:44] ---**
You, in a suit...
I almost didn't recognize you.
**[02:47] ---**
I look good, right?
**[02:49] ---**
I'm so glad we bumped into each other.
**[02:51] ---**
Is he Tezuka's big brother?
**[02:54] ---**
He never said anything
about having any siblings,
**[02:58] ---**
but I've never seen him look like that.
**[03:01] ---**
His name is Suenaga Yuusei.
**[03:04] ---**
Kei?
**[03:05] ---**
He used to live in Yatagarasu HQ
with his parents.
**[03:10] ---**
Both of his parents died in a battle
against the Asian military.
**[03:13] ---**
Gashin's father looked after him,
**[03:16] ---**
so he and Gashin were
raised like brothers.
**[03:19] ---**
Three years ago,
Yuusei left Yatagarasu without a word.
**[03:24] ---**
At the time,
Gashin was feeling really down.
**[03:28] ---**
I didn't know...
**[03:31] ---**
Oh, look at the time.
**[03:35] ---**
Sorry, I have to be somewhere.
**[03:37] ---**
Can I get your contact info?
**[03:39] ---**
Yeah.
**[03:42] ---**
I'll call you later.
Let's grab a bite or something.
**[03:45] ---**
Okay.
**[03:51] ---**
Hey, good job!
**[03:52] ---**
Thank you for your hard work.
Did anything happen while you were out?
**[03:56] ---**
I saw Yuu.
**[03:57] ---**
You saw Yuusei?! Really?!
**[04:00] ---**
How is he?
**[04:01] ---**
He was wearing a suit.
**[04:02] ---**
Him, wearing a suit?!
**[04:04] ---**
I would've liked to have seen that.
**[04:06] ---**
He looked pretty good.
**[04:08] ---**
Tezuka should smile like that more often.
**[04:11] ---**
I agree.
**[04:12] ---**
Be nice...
**[04:19] ---**
Hard copies? That's rare.
**[04:21] ---**
The data's gone,
and this print-out's all that's left.
**[04:24] ---**
That was around the time you and Yuusei
almost got lost in the mountains.
**[04:29] ---**
You know about that?
**[04:30] ---**
The data was transferred over to me.
**[04:33] ---**
I'll never forget that day.
**[04:38] ---**
Back then, Yuu and I explored
the nearby mountains all the time.
**[04:43] ---**
One day, we lost our way
and couldn't get home.
**[04:48] ---**
"No service"
"5% remaining"
Our cell phones didn't work because of
electromagnetic interference.
**[04:51] ---**
I was so scared, but Yuu, he just...
**[04:55] ---**
It'll be okay. I'll protect you
no matter what.
**[04:59] ---**
I'm your big brother. You can trust me.
**[05:03] ---**
Yuu...
**[05:04] ---**
From that moment, Yuu became my brother
even if we weren't related by blood.
**[05:23] ---**
Hey, how are the new weapons?
**[05:26] ---**
Not bad. There's little recoil
and they're easy to handle.
**[05:30] ---**
But the bullet loses
its stability at mid-range.
**[05:33] ---**
I wonder if it was designed
for short-ranged combat.
**[05:37] ---**
I'll adjust what I can.
**[05:39] ---**
Thanks.
**[05:40] ---**
You got it.
**[05:41] ---**
Gashin, you got a
text message from Yuusei.
**[05:52] ---**
Sorry we just tagged along.
**[05:55] ---**
No worries. I wanted
Gashin's friends to see this, too.
**[06:00] ---**
They're not my friends.
**[06:02] ---**
Let it go.
**[06:04] ---**
So, what did you want to show us?
**[06:08] ---**
A city I've built for the Japanese people.
**[06:19] ---**
It was delicious.
**[06:21] ---**
Are all the residents
who live here Japanese?
**[06:24] ---**
Yes. Not one person is from the AFTE here.
**[06:28] ---**
It's unofficial, but it's a small city
with a population of 3,482.
**[06:34] ---**
The Japanese people are allowed
a degree of autonomy here.
**[06:36] ---**
And I'm the mayor of this autonomous city.
**[06:41] ---**
An autonomous city...
**[06:42] ---**
That's amazing...
**[06:43] ---**
Oh, Mayor.
**[06:45] ---**
Hello!
**[06:47] ---**
Thanks for your help the other day.
**[06:49] ---**
"Kimono Shop"
Thanks for your help the other day.
**[06:50] ---**
"Kimono Shop" It was nothing.
**[06:53] ---**
"Kimono Shop"
Just don't push yourself too hard,
**[06:55] ---**
"Kimono Shop"
or you'll hurt your hip again.
**[06:56] ---**
Yes, of course. I'll be careful.
**[06:59] ---**
Looks like he's well-liked.
**[07:00] ---**
Looks like it.
**[07:01] ---**
Mommy!
**[07:03] ---**
What's wrong? Did you get
separated from your mom?
**[07:08] ---**
Oh, it'll be okay. Don't worry.
**[07:11] ---**
It'll be okay.
**[07:13] ---**
Oh, I'm sorry! I just looked away
for a few seconds and she...
**[07:17] ---**
--Mommy!
--Don't scare me like that!
**[07:19] ---**
I'm glad you found your mom.
**[07:21] ---**
Thank you so much, Mayor!
**[07:25] ---**
Bye-bye!
**[07:26] ---**
My wish is for all our residents
to feel safe living here.
**[07:32] ---**
I believe the Japanese people could be
protected without sacrificing anyone.
**[07:37] ---**
That's why I left Yatagarasu.
**[07:40] ---**
What do you mean?
**[07:42] ---**
I wanted to go in a different direction.
**[07:44] ---**
Yatagarasu chose to fight,
but I wanted to try another approach.
**[07:49] ---**
That's why you created
this autonomous city.
**[07:52] ---**
I had to put in a lot of effort, you know?
**[07:54] ---**
It was negotiation after negotiation
with the Asian military.
**[07:57] ---**
My goal is to have this city grow larger.
**[08:00] ---**
I want to spread the word about
the success of this area to everyone.
**[08:04] ---**
That's my plan.
**[08:07] ---**
Mayor, there you are.
**[08:09] ---**
Oh, I didn't realize the time.
**[08:12] ---**
Sorry, I'm needed elsewhere.
**[08:15] ---**
I'll talk to you later.
Feel free to walk around the city.
**[08:22] ---**
He seems busy.
**[08:24] ---**
Yeah.
**[08:26] ---**
Are you friends with the mayor?
**[08:28] ---**
You should stop by my shop.
**[08:30] ---**
Here, take this.
He takes such good care of us.
**[08:33] ---**
U-Um, we're not really...
**[08:38] ---**
They gave us so much.
**[08:40] ---**
I kinda feel bad.
**[08:43] ---**
He really did build this city.
**[08:46] ---**
The Asian military allowing
an autonomous city is unheard of.
**[08:51] ---**
He kept his tone light, but he must've
worked really hard for it.
**[08:57] ---**
"Yuu"
**[09:00] ---**
Thanks for coming over.
**[09:05] ---**
Is this where you work?
**[09:07] ---**
Don't stare so much.
**[09:09] ---**
Even an illusion of authority
is important in negotiation.
**[09:13] ---**
"Autonomous City Bun"
Even an illusion of authority
is important in negotiation.
**[09:13] ---**
"Autonomous City Bun"
You didn't have to give me anything.
The residents gave us plenty.
**[09:15] ---**
You didn't have to give me anything.
The residents gave us plenty.
**[09:17] ---**
That's just an excuse.
I wanted to talk to you alone.
**[09:26] ---**
I'll be direct.
**[09:28] ---**
What do you think about
leaving Yatagarasu to live here, Gashin?
**[09:34] ---**
The number of residents is restricted,
so it isn't easy to bring people in.
**[09:39] ---**
But I can negotiate with the military
if it's just you, a member of my family.
**[09:45] ---**
I should be able to get their approval.
**[09:47] ---**
No, I *will* get it.
**[09:50] ---**
What do you think?
**[09:54] ---**
What are you saying? You think--
**[09:56] ---**
I don't want you shooting guns.
**[10:00] ---**
I want us to live in this city,
together, in peace.
**[10:04] ---**
Together?
**[10:05] ---**
Yes, together.
**[10:12] ---**
You don't have to give me
an answer right away.
**[10:14] ---**
I want you to think hard about it
before answering.
**[10:26] ---**
Oh? Is Gashin not with you?
**[10:29] ---**
He said he's not hungry.
**[10:32] ---**
He seemed off ever since he came back.
**[10:35] ---**
Yeah...
**[10:36] ---**
Probably some teenage angst.
**[10:38] ---**
Just out of nowhere?
**[10:39] ---**
Aren't all humans like that?
**[10:49] ---**
You're our client's important pilot.
**[10:53] ---**
I cannot idly stand by
and make light of this situation.
**[10:57] ---**
What's this about?
**[10:59] ---**
Tread carefully.
**[11:01] ---**
Suenaga Yuusei...
He's an Asian military spy.
**[11:10] ---**
What did you say?!
**[11:11] ---**
Intel is part our business, too.
**[11:14] ---**
And we guarantee its accuracy.
**[11:17] ---**
If you want, intel on nearby
Asian military locations is yours.
**[11:23] ---**
With the right amount of money, that is.
**[11:27] ---**
Suenaga Yuusei worked for the Asian
military to build that autonomous city.
**[11:34] ---**
He confiscated lands, leaked intel,
exposed renegades,
**[11:38] ---**
conducted bribery, sometimes even
bordering on blackmail.
**[11:42] ---**
He sold the Japanese people out
to protect the Japanese people.
**[11:46] ---**
If you stay in contact,
**[11:49] ---**
he'll leak any info on Yatagarasu
to the Asian military.
**[11:54] ---**
That'll result in a loss of a brilliant
pilot and an important client for us.
**[12:00] ---**
We'd like to avoid that.
**[12:02] ---**
You think I'd believe you?
**[12:05] ---**
I can dig deeper, if you'd like?
**[12:09] ---**
That's not necessary.
**[12:11] ---**
We can keep this talk
just between the two of us.
**[12:15] ---**
As a gesture of goodwill.
**[12:22] ---**
Gashin...
**[12:23] ---**
You were listening, right?
I don't want you to tell the others.
**[12:28] ---**
I understand...
**[12:31] ---**
I don't believe him.
**[12:34] ---**
Is Gashin all right?
**[12:36] ---**
He's been like that since his father died.
**[12:38] ---**
He gets out of control whenever
we try to drag him outside.
**[12:41] ---**
He refuses to eat.
**[12:43] ---**
If he keeps this up...
**[12:55] ---**
How long are you gonna stay there?
**[12:58] ---**
Go away, you're not wanted.
**[13:00] ---**
I'm not leaving.
**[13:01] ---**
Go away.
**[13:02] ---**
I'm not leaving.
**[13:03] ---**
Go away!
**[13:08] ---**
Why are you crying?
**[13:11] ---**
I'm your big brother,
**[13:15] ---**
so I'll cry with you
when you feel like crying.
**[13:20] ---**
That's why I'm not leaving.
We're in this together!
**[13:32] ---**
Yuu would never do something so stupid...
**[13:39] ---**
I'll find out the truth myself.
**[13:50] ---**
I couldn't sleep a wink last night.
**[14:02] ---**
I didn't notice the other day,
**[14:05] ---**
but you can see signs of
wear and tear all around.
**[14:07] ---**
Everything's a little rundown
outside of the central area.
**[14:11] ---**
Is that road still not fixed?
**[14:13] ---**
The bridge over there is still out, too.
**[14:16] ---**
It's been three months already.
**[14:18] ---**
"Enorei Drug Store"
It's been three months already.
**[14:18] ---**
"Enorei Drug Store"
You still don't have my medicine?
**[14:21] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[14:22] ---**
We placed the order,
but it's not getting delivered.
**[14:25] ---**
Could you ask your doctor
if another drug can be substituted?
**[14:28] ---**
That's right, there's not enough
baby formula and diapers for us.
**[14:33] ---**
We're only getting by because
a friend gave us some.
**[14:36] ---**
Household goods are short in supply
and they're also expensive.
**[14:39] ---**
Lots of stores are staying closed, too.
**[14:41] ---**
I wish they would do something about that.
**[14:43] ---**
I know.
**[14:45] ---**
Humans will always wish for more.
**[14:48] ---**
The living standards of
the people here are high.
**[14:51] ---**
But once they're accustomed to it,
**[14:53] ---**
they start complaining
about something else.
**[14:56] ---**
That vehicle belongs to
the Asian military...
**[15:00] ---**
Gashin, there are only autonomous
government buildings over there.
**[15:10] ---**
What?! That wasn't our agreement!
**[15:13] ---**
Rumor has it you're
experiencing shipment issues.
**[15:17] ---**
If all goes well, I promise you this city
will be prioritized for all shipments.
**[15:23] ---**
Your food and medicine
shortage will be over.
**[15:26] ---**
We'll also expedite any
bridge and road repair work.
**[15:31] ---**
Don't get the wrong idea.
**[15:34] ---**
This autonomous city is unofficial.
**[15:37] ---**
You need to understand that we're
also going out on a limb here.
**[15:42] ---**
I understand.
**[15:45] ---**
Use the regular method
to let us know of your findings.
**[15:50] ---**
All right.
**[16:04] ---**
Gashin?
**[16:05] ---**
Yuu, about what we talked about, I don't--
**[16:09] ---**
That's not what I want to
talk to you about.
**[16:11] ---**
We have an emergency.
I can't talk on the phone.
**[16:15] ---**
Can I meet you in person?
**[16:17] ---**
Sure, I'm actually in the city now.
I'll head over to your place.
**[16:22] ---**
Let's meet outside the autonomous city
instead. I'll send you the map data.
**[16:26] ---**
Okay, see you then.
**[16:35] ---**
Sorry about this. Hop in.
**[16:38] ---**
You said you needed to speak to me
immediately. You sounded desperate.
**[16:43] ---**
Yes. As you know, I've negotiated
with the Asian military
**[16:48] ---**
to build an autonomous city
for the Japanese people.
**[16:51] ---**
Because of that connection, I sometimes
come across certain information.
**[16:57] ---**
And what did you learn?
**[16:59] ---**
The Asian military is planning a search-
and-destroy operation against Yatagarasu.
**[17:06] ---**
Geographically, our autonomous city
**[17:08] ---**
is likely to be occupied
so they can build a rear base.
**[17:14] ---**
I want you to leave this area
before that happens.
**[17:18] ---**
My proposal should benefit us both.
**[17:24] ---**
Please consider it.
**[17:28] ---**
Mr. Suenaga was here.
**[17:30] ---**
Yeah, I wonder what brought him here?
**[17:35] ---**
Do you two know something?
**[17:38] ---**
N-Nothing! We don't know anything!
**[17:40] ---**
Th-That's right!
Kei didn't tell us anything!
**[17:43] ---**
Kei didn't tell us about the Asian
military or that Suenaga is an Asian--
**[17:46] ---**
--Huh?!
--Idiot!
**[17:48] ---**
You two...
**[17:51] ---**
--They hid!
--Gai! Nayuta!
**[17:53] ---**
Thank you for this valuable information,
but you needn't worry.
**[17:57] ---**
Meaning...?
**[17:59] ---**
We'll be leaving for another
location in two weeks' time.
**[18:03] ---**
You're worried over nothing.
**[18:05] ---**
I-I'm glad to hear that,
but where will you be going?
**[18:10] ---**
That's a question better left unanswered.
**[18:12] ---**
Don't worry, I promise you
it's nowhere near here.
**[18:17] ---**
Thank you so much.
**[18:21] ---**
You should hang out a little longer
since it's been a while.
**[18:24] ---**
I don't want to impose.
**[18:29] ---**
Huh?
**[18:34] ---**
Looks like a bad inverter and motor.
**[18:37] ---**
Your car's quite the vintage.
**[18:40] ---**
It's probably cheaper to buy
a new one than to repair this.
**[18:42] ---**
I don't have that kind of money.
**[18:45] ---**
Can we fix it?
**[18:46] ---**
Maybe by tomorrow morning,
but even then, it may not be 100%.
**[18:51] ---**
Why don't you stay the night,
since it won't be fixed until the morning?
**[18:55] ---**
Are you okay with that?
**[18:57] ---**
Yes.
**[18:58] ---**
I'll take you up on your offer, then.
**[19:23] ---**
Stop.
**[19:25] ---**
You weren't expecting a jamming signal
covering this entire area, where you?
**[19:32] ---**
You rigged your car
so the motor would break down.
**[19:36] ---**
You're good. You fooled
our maintenance guy.
**[19:38] ---**
You knew?
**[19:40] ---**
I wanted to believe
you would never do such a thing.
**[19:45] ---**
I didn't have a choice.
**[19:47] ---**
I know.
**[19:48] ---**
Then let me go!
**[19:51] ---**
I wasn't lying when I said
we should live together.
**[19:55] ---**
Yeah, I know.
**[19:58] ---**
By the way, the additional
resident you requested?
**[20:02] ---**
I'll make an exception
and grant that as well.
**[20:06] ---**
At first, it started with just
giving them small bits of intel.
**[20:10] ---**
But they started demanding more,
and then it was too late to turn back.
**[20:16] ---**
I just wanted to protect someone.
**[20:20] ---**
The data you stole has our relocation
destination and blueprint.
**[20:26] ---**
It's only a matter of
*who* will be the victims
**[20:28] ---**
if the Asian military gets that data.
**[20:31] ---**
I have my hands full
protecting my autonomous city!
**[20:34] ---**
I know people are complaining!
**[20:36] ---**
But that place is still my utopia!
**[20:41] ---**
Put the gun down.
**[20:43] ---**
Gashin!
**[20:46] ---**
It's true, we're moving our HQ.
**[20:49] ---**
But it's in a few days, not two weeks.
**[20:53] ---**
Our destination's completely different
from what's in that data.
**[20:58] ---**
It'll take about half a day
to get to a city with reception.
**[21:01] ---**
The military will then have to
analyze the data you send.
**[21:05] ---**
It'll be another few days for them
to arrange and deploy troops.
**[21:09] ---**
By that time, we'd be long gone
and back into hiding.
**[21:12] ---**
So Mr. Udou and Mr. Kumai...
**[21:16] ---**
They were in on it
after I explained the situation.
**[21:21] ---**
Looks like I've been played.
**[21:23] ---**
You completed your mission
when you stole our intel.
**[21:27] ---**
You can explain to them that we
moved quickly and were very careful.
**[21:33] ---**
I never imagined I'd be at your mercy.
**[21:36] ---**
I'll lose the Asian military's trust.
**[21:39] ---**
Three years of hard work
will go down the drain.
**[21:43] ---**
Yuu...
**[21:44] ---**
Never call me that again!
**[21:48] ---**
Shoot me if you want.
I'm not going to give up so easily.
**[21:55] ---**
I'm not like you. I'm doing this my way.
**[22:00] ---**
No matter how dirty my hands get.
**[22:16] ---**
Is this another mistake?

"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
Yeah. Mr. Suenaga was gone
before anyone realized it.
**[24:01] ---**
Yeah, well, it'll be fine.
**[24:03] ---**
That's right. Anyway,
we have a new mission.

**[00:14] ---**
Tohoku, huh? I've never been.
**[00:17] ---**
Me neither.
**[00:19] ---**
These days, it's unthinkable to travel
between different territories.
**[00:24] ---**
Yeah.
**[00:25] ---**
Anyway, I'm surprised we were able to
procure a huge ship on such short notice.
**[00:30] ---**
Just how well-connected is Mr. Gobert...?
**[00:34] ---**
This is about a client of ours
located in the Tohoku area.
**[00:38] ---**
They're also a resistance organization,
**[00:40] ---**
but the Eurasian military is about to
wipe them off the face of the earth.
**[00:44] ---**
We're asking you to rescue them.
**[00:47] ---**
Of course, you will be
compensated accordingly.
**[00:50] ---**
Even if we've never met our distant
brothers, we can't just abandon them.
**[00:56] ---**
The plan is to head to
our new HQ in separate groups.
**[00:59] ---**
You'll be using that between-time to
conduct the rescue mission. Is that okay?
**[01:04] ---**
I'm good with that.
**[01:05] ---**
Me, too.
**[01:08] ---**
Understood.
**[01:09] ---**
That's great news.
We'll take care of the ship.
**[01:13] ---**
Good luck.
**[01:14] ---**
Thank you!
**[01:19] ---**
Something's been off with Tezuka lately.
**[01:23] ---**
I think something happened
with Mr. Suenaga, but...
**[01:26] ---**
I'm sure he'll talk to us eventually.
**[01:29] ---**
Yeah.
**[01:32] ---**
It's so cold...
**[01:37] ---**
There it is. We're almost there.

"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:55] ---**
Immersing myself in never-ending,
beautiful music,
**[03:58] ---**
while enjoying the rich aroma
of Russian tea...
**[04:02] ---**
I live for luxurious moments like this.
It makes me feel alive.
**[04:07] ---**
I'm glad you're enjoying yourself,
Major Zelenoy.
**[04:12] ---**
Care to join me, First Lieutenant Lvov?
**[04:15] ---**
We're still on a mission.
**[04:18] ---**
Changing the command room
to your liking...
**[04:21] ---**
Your environment plays a vital role
in generating creative ideas.
**[04:26] ---**
Although, you don't need creativity
to chase away pesky rodents.
**[04:33] ---**
My brain is refusing to function.
**[04:37] ---**
What about our soldiers' orders?
**[04:39] ---**
They already have them.
Combat Als can take care of the rest.
**[04:47] ---**
Continue with plan B2.
Team Alpha, advance first.
**[04:50] ---**
Team Gamma, Team Delta, flank the sides.
**[04:53] ---**
Surround the enemy troops.
**[04:54] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[05:02] ---**
Damn these guys!
**[05:09] ---**
There's no end to them!
Conserve your ammo and retreat!
**[05:12] ---**
We'll be crushed at this rate!
**[05:13] ---**
Mr. Konno! They're behind us, too!
**[05:19] ---**
Damn, we're surrounded!
**[05:37] ---**
Good job. You didn't miss once.
**[05:39] ---**
Looks like Ms. Misuzu's adjustments
worked like a charm.
**[05:42] ---**
Tezuka!
**[05:45] ---**
The enemy units are completely exposed.
**[05:47] ---**
I'm not seeing any
command vehicles or units.
**[05:49] ---**
Roger that. Amou!
**[05:57] ---**
The Eurasian military is known for their
numbers, but their AMAIMs are inferior!
**[06:01] ---**
Destroy them all in one go!
**[06:03] ---**
Got it!
**[06:20] ---**
Good work, my princess!
**[06:21] ---**
Thanks! I was so nervous.
**[06:24] ---**
Mr. Konno, are those AMAIMs...?
**[06:26] ---**
The rescue team we requested!
**[06:38] ---**
There're so many of them!
**[06:42] ---**
We broke through
their formation! Let's retreat!
**[06:45] ---**
Roger that!
**[06:49] ---**
We lost them?!
**[06:51] ---**
We're sorry. Unidentified AMAIMs
came out of nowhere...
**[06:55] ---**
We believe they're the ones
spotted in the AFTE territory.
**[06:58] ---**
We'll send over the photos.
**[06:59] ---**
Major!
**[07:08] ---**
This just got more interesting.
**[07:10] ---**
Let's go. I want to take them on myself.
**[07:15] ---**
You can't be serious?!
**[07:23] ---**
So they passed the first stage.
**[07:27] ---**
I expected nothing less.
**[07:29] ---**
If they can't carry out
a mission this easy,
**[07:31] ---**
as an investor,
we'd have to reevaluate them.
**[07:42] ---**
Are you sure about this?
**[07:44] ---**
About Gashin and them?
**[07:46] ---**
I know Gashin's been feeling down
because of what happened with Yuusei.
**[07:51] ---**
I sent them off in hopes that he'd get
back into a more positive mind frame,
**[07:56] ---**
but it might have been too soon
to throw him into combat.
**[07:59] ---**
Don't worry. I told them to
look after themselves first.
**[08:05] ---**
Let's have faith in them.
**[08:08] ---**
Right...
**[08:16] ---**
Thank you. I'm Konno from Arahabaki.
**[08:19] ---**
I'm Tezuka from Yatagarasu.
**[08:21] ---**
We came under Brenson Corp's request.
**[08:23] ---**
Is this everybody?
**[08:25] ---**
Yeah.
**[08:26] ---**
We were originally one of the
largest organizations in East Tohoku,
**[08:32] ---**
but ever since Alexei Zelenoy
took command, we...
**[08:37] ---**
He comes from a noble family in Russia.
**[08:40] ---**
Using his wealth and power,
his style is quantity over quality.
**[08:45] ---**
We were no match for the overwhelming
number of troops he sent our way.
**[08:50] ---**
In the blink of an eye, our numbers
dropped. We're the only survivors.
**[08:56] ---**
We lost more on our way here.
**[08:59] ---**
We understand the situation.
**[09:01] ---**
What can we do to help?
**[09:03] ---**
We need help reaching the east side.
**[09:06] ---**
If we can break through their encirclement
and get across the Ou Mountains,
**[09:09] ---**
we can reach the East Tohoku area.
**[09:11] ---**
Another organization
will be waiting for us there.
**[09:15] ---**
Providing you with an escape route
was also part of the arrangement.
**[09:19] ---**
Understood.
**[09:21] ---**
We need to prepare by researching
the surrounding geography and stuff.
**[09:25] ---**
Agreed.
**[09:26] ---**
We need a good understanding
of the environment we're in,
**[09:30] ---**
but we don't have time.
We'd like to split up and investigate.
**[09:33] ---**
All right, we'll lead the way.
It'll have to be on foot, though.
**[09:36] ---**
No problem.
**[09:38] ---**
We'll handle recording the data.
**[09:40] ---**
I'll rush to your rescue
if something happens.
**[09:43] ---**
Don't worry, my princess.
**[09:44] ---**
Thanks, I'm counting on you!
**[09:56] ---**
You have pretty eyes.
**[09:58] ---**
I was born and raised in Japan,
**[10:00] ---**
but I have East European
blood in me as well.
**[10:05] ---**
Anyway, I never imagined a girl my age
would be coming to our rescue.
**[10:11] ---**
I'm so happy.
**[10:12] ---**
Me, too.
**[10:15] ---**
Hey, we should be friends.
**[10:18] ---**
I'd love that!
**[10:24] ---**
I think that should do it.
**[10:26] ---**
Yeah. If we go any further,
the Eurasian military might spot us.
**[10:31] ---**
If we combine our data, we should have
enough to calculate an escape route.
**[10:40] ---**
What's that?
**[10:42] ---**
Oh, that's a device
the enemy commander had installed.
**[10:46] ---**
It's a sensor that detects AMAIMs
or combat vehicles.
**[10:49] ---**
Several wireless units are placed
around the base unit, sending signals.
**[10:54] ---**
If anything is detected,
the Eurasian military comes rushing in.
**[10:58] ---**
They don't respond to people,
but they're placed all over the area.
**[11:03] ---**
Unplugging them won't do any good since
the loss of signal is also communicated.
**[11:09] ---**
It's getting foggy.
**[11:11] ---**
Fog?
**[11:12] ---**
Fog easily forms
because of the terrain here.
**[11:15] ---**
That's probably why the Eurasian military
installed those sensors.
**[11:20] ---**
Hey, Gai. Do you think we can use this?
**[11:23] ---**
Yeah, I was just thinking
the same exact thing.
**[11:40] ---**
I'm against this.
**[11:42] ---**
We already have the upper hand.
There's no need to put yourself in danger.
**[11:49] ---**
Are you saying I'd lose?
**[11:52] ---**
I'm saying a commander should
sit back, calm and dignified.
**[11:55] ---**
However, Dahlia--
**[12:03] ---**
What was that for?
**[12:04] ---**
Me?! I don't want to have to
scratch my eyes out!
**[12:07] ---**
We've seen each other naked
on numerous other occasions.
**[12:09] ---**
When we were little!
**[12:12] ---**
So you should know how I am, then.
**[12:17] ---**
Yes... You lose sight of everything else
once you focus on something.
**[12:24] ---**
When we were learning to ride,
**[12:26] ---**
you wanted the challenge of
riding an unruly horse,
**[12:29] ---**
only to fall off and break a bone.
**[12:32] ---**
Right when we joined the military,
you took interest in munitions,
**[12:37] ---**
coming very close to
causing a major catastrophe.
**[12:40] ---**
Really, you're like
a little brother who's a handful.
**[12:45] ---**
Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore.
**[12:49] ---**
I only wish to claim the honor
I want, the way I want.
**[12:54] ---**
That's what motivates me!
**[12:59] ---**
And that's why you're a child.
**[13:05] ---**
Don't be nervous, my princess.
I'm here for you.
**[13:08] ---**
R-Right...
**[13:11] ---**
How's the system?
**[13:12] ---**
All good. We're ready when you are.
**[13:19] ---**
We're sorry, but we have to
borrow your AMAIMs.
**[13:22] ---**
It's fine. We need it to escape.
**[13:25] ---**
All right, we're gonna go.
**[13:26] ---**
Okay!
**[13:27] ---**
Be careful.
**[13:28] ---**
Human wave tactics are very effective.
**[13:31] ---**
Many continued its use
until it was considered obsolete.
**[13:34] ---**
Let your guard down,
and that wave will swallow you whole!
**[13:39] ---**
Got it.
**[13:41] ---**
All right. My body and mind
are fully awake.
**[13:45] ---**
I gave our enemies enough time to rest.
**[13:50] ---**
So...
**[14:03] ---**
Let's start the show!
**[14:04] ---**
All units, be careful in the fog.
Proceed with the mission.
**[14:07] ---**
Proceeding with the mission.
**[14:08] ---**
Increase the detection range
of the sensors.
**[14:10] ---**
Increasing range.
**[14:14] ---**
Nothing in D2.
**[14:16] ---**
Nothing in A3.
**[14:17] ---**
Nothing in C6.
**[14:20] ---**
Are they too afraid to make a move?
**[14:23] ---**
Or did they ditch their AMAIMs
and risk getting lost on foot?
**[14:29] ---**
Force their hand.
**[14:30] ---**
Open fire!
**[14:32] ---**
Opening fire.
**[14:44] ---**
Gashin!
**[14:47] ---**
They've opened fire!
**[14:52] ---**
It's overkill! Are they trying to blow
the whole mountain to smithereens?!
**[14:55] ---**
This is crazy!
**[14:56] ---**
Movement detected in A1, B2, and E5.
**[14:59] ---**
Did they spread out to throw us off?
That was a bad call.
**[15:10] ---**
Targets acquired. Opening fire.
**[15:20] ---**
Two of the enemy units
have been destroyed.
**[15:22] ---**
Just make sure not to
destroy the original AMAIM.
**[15:25] ---**
That's what I'm here for.
**[15:28] ---**
Use your smokescreen, Gashin!
**[15:34] ---**
Enemy's smokescreen is
causing poor visibility.
**[15:37] ---**
With it plus the fog,
we've lost sight of our enemies.
**[15:39] ---**
Prioritize local sensors
in detection mode.
**[15:41] ---**
Switch signals every 40 seconds.
**[15:44] ---**
Roger that.
**[15:45] ---**
Prioritizing local sensors.
**[15:46] ---**
Switching signals in 40 seconds.
**[15:48] ---**
All right, surround the three AMAIMs
and push them into a corner.
**[15:52] ---**
I'll directly handle them from there!
**[15:54] ---**
Team Alpha, Team Beta,
immediately move to A1.
**[15:57] ---**
Team Delta, flank left.
**[15:59] ---**
Team Lambda, move from
E3 to E4 and cut them off.
**[16:02] ---**
Everyone, be ready to open fire!
**[16:04] ---**
Initiating encirclement.
Going into open-fire mode.
**[16:08] ---**
Team Beta, move forward.
Alpha 1 and 3, flank right.
**[16:15] ---**
Team Gamma, move forward.
**[16:18] ---**
Team Lambda, join up with Team Sigma.
**[16:24] ---**
Now! Surround them!
**[16:28] ---**
They disappeared?!
**[16:28] ---**
What?!
**[16:33] ---**
Making adjustments based on
wind direction and speed.
**[16:36] ---**
Changing barrel!
**[16:37] ---**
Ready to fire!
**[16:53] ---**
How can this be?!
**[16:54] ---**
--Amou!
--Yeah!
**[17:15] ---**
Impossible... We aren't
able to detect them.
**[17:18] ---**
Could it be that...?!
**[17:20] ---**
They used our system?
**[17:22] ---**
It was a simple device emitting signals,
so we decided to hack it!
**[17:27] ---**
We hid our presence using a fake signal,
**[17:29] ---**
while using another one
to misdirect the enemy.
**[17:33] ---**
The fog worked in our favor, as well.
**[17:37] ---**
That's why they showed
themselves at first.
**[17:41] ---**
The salvaged North American
military units were used as a ruse.
**[17:46] ---**
They're likely unmanned AMAIMs.
**[17:47] ---**
They were originally designed
as unmanned units.
**[17:50] ---**
It was a piece of cake to control them.
**[17:52] ---**
You didn't do that, Nayuta.
**[17:54] ---**
But we had numerous sensors
around the area!
**[17:57] ---**
We've also switched signals
every 40 seconds!
**[17:59] ---**
That was a tough one.
**[18:01] ---**
But with the three of us,
it wasn't an impossible task!
**[18:06] ---**
They cut me off from the rest.
**[18:12] ---**
Let's do this. We've destroyed
most of their units.
**[18:14] ---**
We only have the big boss to take down!
**[18:17] ---**
I see, they were after me
from the beginning!
**[18:22] ---**
Cut off the head of the snake...
**[18:24] ---**
...and the rest will be child's play!
**[18:26] ---**
Alec!
**[18:30] ---**
Looks like the enemy's aiming AI
is in heat source mode.
**[18:33] ---**
Use your new claw weapon!
**[18:35] ---**
Got it!
**[18:38] ---**
Five more seconds... three, two, one...
**[18:51] ---**
That's a manned AMAIM. It'll be different
from fighting a combat AI.
**[18:55] ---**
Okay.
**[18:56] ---**
If we can pin him down...
**[18:58] ---**
The three of us will work together
to catch him off guard.
**[19:01] ---**
Interesting. Bring it on, then!
**[19:24] ---**
Not good enough!
**[19:46] ---**
Fall back, Amou! He'll take you down!
**[19:52] ---**
He's blocking everything...!
**[19:54] ---**
Don't be naïve.
**[19:57] ---**
He tilted it perfectly in an instant!
**[20:03] ---**
What happened?! Why isn't he moving?
**[20:05] ---**
Our mission is to escape. We're going to
retreat rather than continue to engage.
**[20:09] ---**
--Okay.
--Roger that!
**[20:14] ---**
Alec!
**[20:15] ---**
I'm all right.
**[20:16] ---**
I'll send the troops after them,
once we regroup and--
**[20:19] ---**
Don't go after them.
**[20:20] ---**
Why not?!
**[20:25] ---**
They think a manned AMAIM
should simply be stopped, not killed.
**[20:29] ---**
We can't go after them
after they showed mercy on me.
**[20:33] ---**
I will not disgrace myself further!
**[20:36] ---**
I understand.
**[20:43] ---**
Remember this, terrorists...
**[20:46] ---**
Even if you forget
what happened today, I will not!
**[21:00] ---**
Thanks, we owe you.
**[21:02] ---**
You're welcome.
**[21:03] ---**
I'm glad you were able to meet up
with the East Tohoku group.
**[21:06] ---**
Yeah, we'll work together for our cause.
**[21:11] ---**
We truly appreciate your help.
**[21:14] ---**
Let's continue our efforts
to restore Japan.
**[21:22] ---**
I'm sorry I couldn't find anything better,
but please accept this gift.
**[21:27] ---**
Wow, thanks so much.
**[21:29] ---**
Thank you.
**[21:31] ---**
Um, I'd like to see you again.
**[21:33] ---**
Yeah, one day.
**[21:40] ---**
I guess we're headed back.
**[21:42] ---**
Everything went by in a blur.
**[21:44] ---**
Yeah.
**[21:48] ---**
We truly appreciate your help.
**[21:53] ---**
We can save people through combat, too.
**[21:58] ---**
This is my way.
**[22:01] ---**
Hey, you look like
you're in a better mood.
**[22:05] ---**
Whatever.
**[22:06] ---**
Hey, let's enjoy those gifts inside.
**[22:08] ---**
Okay. Come on, Tezuka.
**[22:12] ---**
All right.

**[23:54] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
**[23:56] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
That pilot in the commander
unit was strong...
**[23:58] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
Yeah, it was unexpected.
The world is a big place.
**[24:03] ---**
Where are we headed to now?
**[24:05] ---**
A base camp until our new HQ is ready.
**[24:08] ---**
By the way, who's that guy?

**[00:14] ---**
Ah, here they come.
**[00:18] ---**
Hey, welcome back!
**[00:20] ---**
Sorry for the wait!
**[00:22] ---**
How many of us are here?
**[00:24] ---**
Just the maintenance team
and two platoons.
**[00:27] ---**
The chairman and the leaders
are each at their designated area.
**[00:31] ---**
Moving in big groups would
attract too much attention.
**[00:34] ---**
This is our temporary camp
until the new HQ is ready!
**[00:37] ---**
Okay, move the units to the hangar!
**[00:40] ---**
Let's get to work!
**[00:42] ---**
Um, before we do that...
**[00:44] ---**
It's gotten pretty dirty
from the travel and combat.
**[00:47] ---**
Is it okay if I give it a wash?
**[00:51] ---**
Oh, of course!
**[00:59] ---**
Amou...
**[01:00] ---**
Huh? What are you doing here?
**[01:02] ---**
I wanted to wash my AMAIM, too.
**[01:05] ---**
Let's not keep the maintenance
team waiting. We should be quick.
**[01:08] ---**
You're right.
**[01:13] ---**
Hm. You somehow accessed
this secure line to contact me.
**[01:20] ---**
Who are you?
**[01:22] ---**
Hello. It's nice to meet you,
Captain Brad Watt.
**[01:29] ---**
I have a business deal
I wish to offer you.
**[01:47] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:04] ---**
My name is German Gobert.
**[03:07] ---**
I work as a liaison
for a particular company.
**[03:11] ---**
The people authorized to use this line
are restricted. How did you get in?
**[03:17] ---**
I have my ways.
**[03:21] ---**
Oh, it's no use looking me up.
**[03:25] ---**
I prefer to stay behind the scenes.
**[03:28] ---**
This video could be a fake, as well.
**[03:32] ---**
Captain, we should cut off
the connection now.
**[03:35] ---**
This doesn't feel right.
**[03:37] ---**
Are you sure?
**[03:39] ---**
You'll find this business opportunity
valuable if you hear me out.
**[03:46] ---**
What do you plan on selling me?
**[03:48] ---**
What I have for you is information.
**[03:51] ---**
The current location
of Ghost, to be exact.
**[03:56] ---**
I understand you're still on
a mission to capture Ghost.
**[04:00] ---**
I'm sure you want nothing more
than to learn about its whereabouts.
**[04:05] ---**
What do you want?
**[04:07] ---**
This was a request from my client.
**[04:10] ---**
Information is only valuable
if you use it right.
**[04:13] ---**
You're the only one that
I came to with this information.
**[04:20] ---**
Sounds like it'll cost me dearly.
**[04:22] ---**
I won't be taking your money.
**[04:25] ---**
However, I do expect
to gain something in return.
**[04:27] ---**
Think of it as a prior investment
for our future business.
**[04:33] ---**
See you soon.
**[04:37] ---**
Captain...
**[04:38] ---**
Have the Intelligence Agency
verify this data.
**[04:40] ---**
Report this conversation to the commander.
**[04:44] ---**
How interesting.
**[04:46] ---**
We can use this in many ways
if this data is accurate.
**[04:54] ---**
I see, Gashin and them
have returned safely.
**[04:57] ---**
Yes.
**[04:59] ---**
What are they doing now?
**[05:00] ---**
They're washing their units.
**[05:03] ---**
Though, the maintenance team
seems bored waiting for them.
**[05:06] ---**
That's fine.
**[05:08] ---**
We can't perform large-scale missions
until the new HQ is ready.
**[05:12] ---**
They should think of this as
their downtime and take it easy.
**[05:16] ---**
I'll let them know. I'll talk to you
in our next scheduled call.
**[05:21] ---**
Master, you have a visitor.
**[05:26] ---**
All right, I'll be right there.
**[05:29] ---**
There's some dirt buildup
in the nooks and crannies.
**[05:33] ---**
Make sure you polish thoroughly!
**[05:35] ---**
My mind won't work
quite as fast if you don't!
**[05:39] ---**
How does this affect your mind?
**[05:41] ---**
That refreshed feeling
you get is important!
**[05:44] ---**
M-My princess is
hand-washing me herself...
**[05:48] ---**
I'm so... I'm so...!
**[05:51] ---**
What's it going on about?
**[05:52] ---**
It must have a bug.
**[05:53] ---**
You're a third-rate AI to not
comprehend this thought-process.
**[05:56] ---**
What'd you say?!
**[05:58] ---**
You wanna go?!
**[06:00] ---**
Nayuta!
**[06:02] ---**
You're not gonna stop them?
**[06:03] ---**
Just ignore them.
**[06:07] ---**
There are a lot of scratches.
**[06:09] ---**
The parts have to be changed out if it's
heavily damaged, but not for a scratch.
**[06:14] ---**
Not much you can do but fill it in.
**[06:17] ---**
Yeah.
**[06:18] ---**
We went through so much.
**[06:21] ---**
We crossed the ocean,
**[06:22] ---**
built a waterwheel...
**[06:24] ---**
I didn't think we'd be going to Tohoku.
**[06:28] ---**
Let's visit more places
once this battle's over!
**[06:32] ---**
Not just Japan, but overseas, too!
**[06:34] ---**
I want to see a lot more things.
**[06:36] ---**
I'm counting on you, Amou!
**[06:38] ---**
Yeah, okay. You got it.
**[06:41] ---**
By the way, I saw the video, Amou!
**[06:44] ---**
That video where you
provoked the Asian military!
**[06:47] ---**
Th-That was...
**[06:49] ---**
Don't be shy about it. You should be
proud of your battle scars!
**[06:52] ---**
They aren't scars, though.
**[06:54] ---**
Shion, you want to bring back
Himeno wares after this, right?
**[06:57] ---**
Yup, that's right!
**[07:00] ---**
I want to restore our kiln
that the Asian military destroyed.
**[07:03] ---**
I want Grandpa to teach me the technique
so I can keep up the tradition.
**[07:07] ---**
Keeping up the tradition. I like that!
**[07:12] ---**
Thanks.
**[07:14] ---**
What about you, Tezuka?
Any plans after the fight?
**[07:18] ---**
I can't think about that yet.
**[07:20] ---**
We need to restore Japan,
**[07:23] ---**
and I need to avenge my father's death
by defeating Ghost.
**[07:31] ---**
You're right. I'll help you
when the time comes.
**[07:35] ---**
Me, too! We're comrades, after all.
**[07:38] ---**
Comrades... Yeah, we're comrades!
**[07:42] ---**
Yup!
**[07:44] ---**
You're not going to respond, Gashin?
**[07:49] ---**
I saw your report.
**[07:52] ---**
I agree that if it weren't for the
unexpected AMAIMs joining the fight,
**[07:55] ---**
you most likely would not have let
the remnants of the terrorists get away.
**[07:59] ---**
Yes, sir! I'm glad you understand.
**[08:03] ---**
Idiot.
**[08:04] ---**
However, there was also that incident
with the terrorists in Hokkaido.
**[08:08] ---**
That falls under Major General
Bazarov's jurisdiction.
**[08:11] ---**
My opponents were powerful.
**[08:14] ---**
I'm sure they will pose a threat
to us moving forward.
**[08:18] ---**
Hmph... Very well.
**[08:21] ---**
As you requested, you'll lead the flying
column against the original AMAIM.
**[08:28] ---**
Wait for further instructions.
**[08:30] ---**
Yes, sir. Thank you so much.
**[08:34] ---**
Are you sure about this?
**[08:35] ---**
They pulled their punches.
**[08:37] ---**
I can't rest until we fight them with
everything and I emerge victorious.
**[08:42] ---**
Besides...
**[08:46] ---**
...wouldn't it be great
to ride that AMAIM?
**[08:54] ---**
Thank you for coming over.
**[08:57] ---**
Of course.
**[09:00] ---**
What is it you wanted to show me?
**[09:03] ---**
This.
**[09:12] ---**
We're seeing similar incidents in
other ports on the Sea of Japan side.
**[09:17] ---**
It looks like these were
taken after a battle.
**[09:20] ---**
We aren't seeing any notable movements
from the Asian military.
**[09:23] ---**
If there were battles, I believe they'd
arm themselves and deploy.
**[09:30] ---**
All right. Investigate this
as much as you can.
**[09:34] ---**
Will do.
**[09:35] ---**
I have something
I want to show you, as well.
**[09:38] ---**
As you know, this is the current map
of each nation's territory.
**[09:43] ---**
We had our PFP computer, Murakumo,
**[09:47] ---**
forecast the changes of the borders.
**[09:55] ---**
Our territory is expanding.
**[09:58] ---**
On paper, NAC allows
the Japanese people autonomy.
**[10:02] ---**
Because of this, we have fewer
terrorist attacks than other nations.
**[10:07] ---**
We don't have to spend
as many military resources.
**[10:10] ---**
We don't have autonomy!
**[10:12] ---**
There's a clear difference between
the NAC citizens and the Japanese people.
**[10:17] ---**
Even if the people from
the NAC commit crimes here,
**[10:20] ---**
they aren't subjected to Japanese law.
**[10:24] ---**
They're sent back to their
home country for trials there,
**[10:28] ---**
but the rulings aren't communicated to us.
**[10:31] ---**
They call it autonomy, but it's there
to repress the people from resisting.
**[10:39] ---**
That said, there are many ways in which
the future predictions can change.
**[10:43] ---**
*I* will change it.
**[10:45] ---**
I won't let the NAC get their way.
**[10:48] ---**
If you're that determined,
why request a flying column?
**[10:52] ---**
How great would it be to do what you want
while accomplishing your goal?
**[10:59] ---**
More like exploiting that goal
to satisfy your own urge.
**[11:08] ---**
Curious, isn't it?
**[11:10] ---**
What is?
**[11:12] ---**
In the last few years, each nation's
borders haven't changed much.
**[11:17] ---**
But the forecast shows that within a year,
it will change so much.
**[11:23] ---**
There must be something
that triggers this,
**[11:26] ---**
some kind of a breakthrough.
**[11:29] ---**
You think that's the original AMAIM
the terrorists have?
**[11:32] ---**
Specifically, the autonomous AI
that's in the AMAIM.
**[11:39] ---**
According to the Intelligence Agency,
Ghost also has an autonomous AI
**[11:44] ---**
at the same level as the original AMAIM,
or possibly even further developed.
**[11:52] ---**
Aren't you dying to get a hold of it?
**[12:08] ---**
I resign...
**[12:09] ---**
Wow!
**[12:10] ---**
Shion won again!
**[12:12] ---**
She's undefeated in both shogi and go!
**[12:15] ---**
--One more game!
--Huh?!
**[12:17] ---**
B-But...
**[12:19] ---**
One more game!
**[12:20] ---**
Uhh...
**[12:29] ---**
Good morning.
**[12:31] ---**
Morning.
**[12:34] ---**
Tezuka and Shion aren't up yet?
**[12:36] ---**
He kept asking for a rematch
with Shion until very late.
**[12:44] ---**
They're probably still asleep.
**[12:47] ---**
Good morning, Amou!
**[12:50] ---**
We're gonna work on Kenbu's
maintenance after this. You wanna join?
**[12:55] ---**
Yes, please!
**[12:56] ---**
Are you really going to bite, Captain?
**[13:00] ---**
Whether I bite or not,
capturing Ghost *is* our mission.
**[13:05] ---**
Yes, but...
**[13:08] ---**
If the information is useful,
I'll use it. Simple as that.
**[13:11] ---**
That's why I'm having the Intelligence
Agency validate the data.
**[13:14] ---**
We just got the data analysis results.
I'm sending it your way.
**[13:19] ---**
Oh? The credibility of
the data is over 90%.
**[13:24] ---**
It was verified by integrating
various intel from our operatives.
**[13:28] ---**
So is Ghost currently hiding
in Asian territory?
**[13:31] ---**
Yes.
**[13:32] ---**
What's the plan? We won't be able
to send in troops like last time.
**[13:37] ---**
The Asian military will surely pick up on
our movement the second time.
**[13:41] ---**
Even if we could, we'd need to call
for a lot more troops than before.
**[13:46] ---**
Right. If we assume Ghost
has developed even further,
**[13:51] ---**
we won't have a chance unless
we have at least two companies.
**[13:55] ---**
The bar's even higher.
**[13:59] ---**
I like manned AMAIMs, but I'm also
good at controlling unmanned units.
**[14:05] ---**
Sure, but...
**[14:07] ---**
The pieces are already in place.
**[14:13] ---**
Are we sure the terrorists have
moved out of their base camp?
**[14:16] ---**
Yes, according to our operative
in the Asian territory.
**[14:22] ---**
The Asian military sent in troops after
their spy gave them the location,
**[14:25] ---**
but by the time they arrived,
the terrorists were gone.
**[14:29] ---**
They're unsure where the terrorists went.
**[14:34] ---**
Have Capricorn calculate
possible travel routes.
**[14:38] ---**
Our sophisticated
integrated processing AI?
**[14:41] ---**
I want to increase
the integrity of our intel.
**[14:43] ---**
Ray, Sophia, let's go!
**[14:47] ---**
Go where?
**[14:49] ---**
Where else? We're going sightseeing!
**[14:59] ---**
Good! We're done!
**[15:01] ---**
Okay, thanks for your help. You did good.
**[15:04] ---**
Thank you so much!
**[15:09] ---**
Hey!
**[15:10] ---**
Not bad. Not bad at all.
**[15:14] ---**
Thank you!
**[15:16] ---**
He was a lot better than
when Chief joined us, right?
**[15:19] ---**
Yeah.
**[15:21] ---**
Ms. Misuzu?
**[15:22] ---**
When Chief joined us, she had all the
knowledge and none of the experience.
**[15:28] ---**
She was completely useless.
**[15:31] ---**
But she kept at it like you wouldn't
believe and improved her skills.
**[15:36] ---**
Before you knew it, she became our chief.
**[15:39] ---**
Maybe you can be like our chief one day.
**[15:43] ---**
Y-You think so?
**[15:45] ---**
There's a lot you need to learn first.
**[15:47] ---**
Yup, you better study hard!
**[15:49] ---**
Studying is important. Very important!
**[15:56] ---**
Can I ever be like her?
**[15:59] ---**
Amou! You got a minute?
**[16:01] ---**
Yes!
**[16:02] ---**
Gashin and Shion finally woke up.
**[16:06] ---**
We're going shopping.
Amou, can you join us?
**[16:11] ---**
Yes!
**[16:14] ---**
Wow, there're so many people.
**[16:17] ---**
Not just people from the AFTE and
Japanese people, but foreigners, too!
**[16:21] ---**
This is an open market.
**[16:23] ---**
Anyone can enter as long as they aren't
carrying anything dangerous.
**[16:28] ---**
There's a lot of European companies
that conduct business with the AFTE.
**[16:32] ---**
People like that frequent this market,
with their own bodyguards, of course.
**[16:36] ---**
Is that how Mr. German
entered the country?
**[16:39] ---**
Yeah, probably using a fake cover.
**[16:42] ---**
We'll shop individually like we always do.
Stay under the radar.
**[16:46] ---**
Okay!
**[16:50] ---**
Why are you looking around so much?
**[16:52] ---**
Because I've never been
to a place like this--
**[16:57] ---**
Oh, I-I'm so sorry!
**[17:00] ---**
No, I'm sorry I didn't see you.
Are you all right?
**[17:05] ---**
Um, yes...
**[17:07] ---**
It's fine, I'm good.
**[17:10] ---**
U-Um, sorry again.
**[17:14] ---**
Ray, could you follow him
and get a voice recording of him?
**[17:17] ---**
Sir?
**[17:18] ---**
I've heard his voice before.
**[17:20] ---**
I, no, Kenbu will make sure
that you're crushed!
**[17:25] ---**
I want to run his voiceprint.
**[17:27] ---**
Understood.
**[17:31] ---**
Looks like I got lucky.
**[17:39] ---**
Thanks for your help.
**[17:41] ---**
What else can we help with?
**[17:43] ---**
Nope, we're done.
You can kick back and relax.
**[17:47] ---**
We're done, huh?!
**[17:51] ---**
Tezuka, don't bug Shion so much.
**[17:55] ---**
I'm not an idiot!
I know I'm not at her level yet...
**[17:59] ---**
I'm going to ask for a rematch
once I'm better at it!
**[18:02] ---**
O-Okay...
**[18:03] ---**
Competitive much?
**[18:06] ---**
Sorry about Gashin.
**[18:08] ---**
No, not at all.
**[18:09] ---**
My princess, if something happens,
I, Angelo, will protect you.
**[18:15] ---**
Oh, there you are. Welcome back.
**[18:18] ---**
Are you guys free later?
**[18:20] ---**
Huh?
**[18:22] ---**
Yes, I think so...
**[18:23] ---**
Then how about we go
on a nice little trip?
**[18:28] ---**
A hot spring?
**[18:30] ---**
Yeah, just down the road,
there's an old natural hot spring.
**[18:35] ---**
It only has a simple changing room
and a partition,
**[18:39] ---**
but it's a secluded hot spring
that only a few people know about!
**[18:42] ---**
Are we allowed to go, just the four of us?
**[18:44] ---**
It'll be fine. Everyone else went
before you guys came, so it's only fair!
**[18:55] ---**
"Women" "Men"
**[18:56] ---**
"Women" "Men"
All right, the women's area is this way.
The men's is that way.
**[18:58] ---**
All right, the women's area is this way.
The men's is that way.
**[18:59] ---**
No peeking.
**[19:00] ---**
W-We would never do that!
**[19:09] ---**
The temperature is perfect.
**[19:12] ---**
Looks like they're pulling in water from
that river to adjust the temperature.
**[19:16] ---**
You gotta love how free this feels.
**[19:21] ---**
Thank you, Ms. Misuzu, for bring us here.
**[19:25] ---**
Not at all! I'm glad you're enjoying it.
**[19:29] ---**
I don't get it! Why couldn't I
go with my princess?!
**[19:33] ---**
Of course you can't.
Just look at how you usually act!
**[19:36] ---**
What?!
**[19:37] ---**
Hot springs, geothermally
heated groundwater.
**[19:41] ---**
Depending on the minerals,
it may help counteract fatigue, huh?
**[19:45] ---**
Looks like the sweating
increases one's metabolism, too.
**[19:48] ---**
That's something we can't comprehend
since we don't have physical bodies.
**[19:51] ---**
I'm telling you,
it's that refreshed feeling!
**[19:54] ---**
Oh!
**[19:56] ---**
Ahh, it's so nice
to be able to stretch out,
**[20:01] ---**
and the stars are beautiful.
**[20:03] ---**
Yeah, I agree.
**[20:06] ---**
Do you come to hot springs a lot?
**[20:09] ---**
Sometimes our leaders take us.
What about you?
**[20:14] ---**
I used to go when I was little, but after
my parents passed away, not so much.
**[20:20] ---**
Sorry, I didn't mean to
bring up bad memories.
**[20:23] ---**
No! Besides, I brought it up.
Don't worry about it.
**[20:30] ---**
Oh, you're...
**[20:32] ---**
Ah, g-good evening.
**[20:35] ---**
Shh...
**[20:38] ---**
You know him?
**[20:39] ---**
I saw him earlier at the market.
**[20:42] ---**
I guess you're from around here. Are you
with the AFTE? Or are you Japanese?
**[20:47] ---**
Um, I-I'm Japanese.
**[20:50] ---**
Is he your friend?
**[20:51] ---**
Ah, y-yes.
**[20:54] ---**
Um, do you visit places like this, too?
**[20:58] ---**
I heard about it and decided
to come heal my battle wounds.
**[21:03] ---**
Battle?
**[21:05] ---**
We're soldiers from the NAC.
**[21:12] ---**
We fought against an enemy the other day.
**[21:15] ---**
We were very close to winning,
but it got away.
**[21:19] ---**
Enemy?
**[21:21] ---**
A violent, unmanned AMAIM with
unknown allegiance, called "Ghost."
**[21:27] ---**
It got away, but our Intelligence Agency
tracked its location.
**[21:32] ---**
Currently, Ghost is hiding
in the Oki Islands.
**[21:36] ---**
Oki Islands...
**[21:38] ---**
We heard it exchanged fire
with the Asian military.
**[21:41] ---**
We're going to round up the troops
in a few days to defeat Ghost this time.
**[21:49] ---**
Why are you telling us this?
**[21:52] ---**
I'm not sure.
**[21:55] ---**
Maybe I feel a connection with you.
**[21:58] ---**
Huh?
**[22:00] ---**
See you again if we have the chance.

**[23:59] ---**
But there are Japanese people
living there, right?
**[24:02] ---**
Yeah, although it's under
the Asian military's control.
**[24:05] ---**
That just means one thing. Right, Amou?!
**[24:08] ---**
Yeah, we can't let it roam free!

**[00:34] ---**
No enemies detected.
Moving on to the hangar.
**[00:38] ---**
It has to be nearby.
Don't let your guard down.
**[00:42] ---**
First Platoon, entering the hangar now.
**[00:44] ---**
Second Platoon,
continue searching the east side.
**[00:58] ---**
I'm picking up a heat source! Enemy found!
**[01:01] ---**
Second Platoon, move from the south side
and catch it in a pincer maneuver!
**[01:04] ---**
First Platoon, open fire!
**[01:14] ---**
First Platoon has been annihilated.
Second Platoon, opening fire now!
**[01:25] ---**
Second Platoon has been annihilated!
**[01:26] ---**
What?!
**[01:27] ---**
We lost Ghost's signal!
**[01:29] ---**
Damn it! It got away--
**[01:56] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:15] ---**
Ghost is in the Oki Islands?
**[03:17] ---**
Yes, based on information Gashin and Amou
received from the NAC soldier.
**[03:22] ---**
We haven't verified this intel yet,
but I wanted to give you a heads up.
**[03:28] ---**
Hmm...
**[03:30] ---**
I want to defeat it.
**[03:33] ---**
I have to avenge my father,
and until I defeat it...
**[03:39] ---**
...I can't move forward.
**[03:43] ---**
Tezuka...
**[03:44] ---**
Amou, what do you think?
**[03:50] ---**
Um...
**[03:53] ---**
I was there when our camp got attacked.
**[03:59] ---**
But I couldn't do anything.
**[04:04] ---**
Because of that, Ms. Risa...
**[04:08] ---**
...and the others...
**[04:12] ---**
I think Ghost is dangerous.
**[04:14] ---**
There's no telling
who will be its next victim.
**[04:17] ---**
If Tezuka's going to fight,
I'll help as well!
**[04:21] ---**
I see. However, we don't know
if the intel is good.
**[04:25] ---**
We'll make a decision
after we know for sure.
**[04:28] ---**
Gai, Kei, Nayuta... Will you help us?
**[04:31] ---**
Yup!
**[04:32] ---**
Of course.
**[04:33] ---**
In for a penny...
**[04:35] ---**
Thanks.
**[04:37] ---**
You're on standby
until we know more. All right?
**[04:41] ---**
Okay!
**[04:43] ---**
Roger that.
**[05:02] ---**
Hey, how long are you gonna keep this up?
**[05:05] ---**
He's been in there for hours.
**[05:10] ---**
Jeez, there's really no stopping him.
**[05:23] ---**
Our next meeting was held two days later.
**[05:29] ---**
I won't beat around the bush.
**[05:31] ---**
It's highly likely that Ghost
is in the Oki Islands.
**[05:35] ---**
According to our analysis,
the probability is 94.6%.
**[05:40] ---**
It could have left the island,
but we're pretty certain it's still there.
**[05:45] ---**
The Oki Islands is under
the Asian military's control.
**[05:48] ---**
Dougo and Nishinoshima Island
have outposts there.
**[05:52] ---**
Based on photographs of the Asian
military's movements in nearby ports,
**[05:56] ---**
along with evidence of battles
and power consumption forecast,
**[05:59] ---**
Ghost has destroyed
the outpost in Dougo Island,
**[06:03] ---**
and then moved on to the outpost
in Nishinoshima Island.
**[06:06] ---**
In doing so, Ghost has taken control of
the anti-aircraft warning system.
**[06:10] ---**
The Asian military retreated, and their
army at the mainland can't get near it.
**[06:15] ---**
They've started building
a defense line on the coastline
**[06:18] ---**
in order to prevent Ghost
from attacking the mainland.
**[06:22] ---**
For the time being, Ghost has been quiet.
**[06:24] ---**
It's probably in sleep mode.
**[06:27] ---**
Oh, to organize data?
**[06:29] ---**
And recover from any damage.
**[06:32] ---**
We do have one problem.
**[06:35] ---**
Everyone in the Japanese living quarters
of Nishinoshima was left behind.
**[06:41] ---**
What?
**[06:42] ---**
We also have reports
of people being injured.
**[06:45] ---**
The Asian military must've abandoned
the Japanese people to save themselves.
**[06:49] ---**
It's not a problem yet.
**[06:50] ---**
But there's no guarantee that they
won't be attacked once Ghost wakes up.
**[06:55] ---**
Well, we have to go help them now!
**[06:57] ---**
By defeating Ghost,
**[06:59] ---**
we can protect not only
the people of Japan but Japan itself.
**[07:04] ---**
Shion, this will be your first time
going against Ghost.
**[07:09] ---**
I've steeled my resolve after hearing
how Amou and Tezuka feel.
**[07:13] ---**
I won't just stand by on the side lines.
**[07:16] ---**
Okay. Then your next mission is
to rescue the people in Nishinoshima
**[07:21] ---**
and to defeat Ghost.
**[07:23] ---**
Please prepare for it immediately.
**[07:25] ---**
--Roger that!
--Got it!
**[07:30] ---**
Don't break formation!
You're dead if you stray off!
**[07:34] ---**
We know!
**[07:35] ---**
We know, but--
**[07:37] ---**
Dammit. One more time!
**[07:47] ---**
This will be a two-front war.
**[07:50] ---**
To protect the residents
and avoid the Asian military,
**[07:53] ---**
we'll do it simultaneously and quickly.
**[07:56] ---**
Amou, Gashin, and Shion will combat Ghost.
**[08:00] ---**
My team will conduct the rescue mission.
**[08:03] ---**
The rest is logistic support.

Once you reach there, you'll use

**[08:12] ---**
Once you reach there, you'll use
your AMAIMs to head to the outpost.
**[08:12] ---**
That's where Ghost
is most likely hiding at.
**[08:16] ---**
Remember, you're also a diversion to
protect the rescue team from Ghost.
**[08:22] ---**
Got it!
**[08:23] ---**
Next, the rescue team.
**[08:24] ---**
According to the population registry,
103 residents need rescuing.
**[08:29] ---**
Eight of those are in need of caretakers.
**[08:32] ---**
We need a boat to transport them.
**[08:34] ---**
I don't care if it's a fishing boat.
Work together and get enough.
**[08:38] ---**
We'll also need medical
supplies and stretchers.
**[08:41] ---**
Prioritize the rescue of children,
seniors, and those who need assistance.
**[08:45] ---**
By the end of this mission,
**[08:47] ---**
the Asian military should be away from
the islands and the nearby shorelines.
**[08:52] ---**
How's that going?
**[08:54] ---**
We're already on it!
**[08:55] ---**
We asked the local helpers to create a
commotion to send the military their way.
**[09:00] ---**
Don't worry.
**[09:01] ---**
How should we reach out to the residents?
**[09:03] ---**
Would they believe us
if we contact them out of the blue?
**[09:07] ---**
I actually have an idea.
**[09:08] ---**
"Restaurant: Saito"
I actually have an idea.
**[09:10] ---**

**[09:12] ---**
"Getting Ready"
**[09:13] ---**
"Getting Ready"
There's a battle on the islands?
**[09:15] ---**
Unfortunately, yes.
Please help us save them.
**[09:20] ---**
I've lost touch with everyone
after I left the islands a long time ago.
**[09:25] ---**
I was practically kicked out. No one would
care about what I'd have to say...
**[09:29] ---**
I understand that you're hesitant.
**[09:32] ---**
However, we have no time
to lose. Please, help us!
**[09:48] ---**
We managed to get enough boats.
**[09:51] ---**
Good. My helper's also onboard.
**[10:33] ---**
All right! You're good to go!
**[10:35] ---**
Thank you so much.
**[10:36] ---**
Hey! We got our stuff, too!
**[10:41] ---**
We received communication
from the Intelligence Agency.
**[10:43] ---**
Apparently, a group of Japanese people
are renting a number of boats.
**[10:48] ---**
They must be the terrorists.
**[10:51] ---**
It's as you predicted, Captain.
**[10:54] ---**
Things are moving along well.
**[10:57] ---**
Call me an opportunistic leech,
but I'll be the one that comes out on top.
**[11:03] ---**
We're all ready.
Our mission will start tonight.
**[11:08] ---**
I understand.
**[11:10] ---**
Good luck.
**[11:30] ---**
It's time! Team One, head out!
**[11:37] ---**
Team Two, head out!
**[11:44] ---**
Let's go!
**[12:35] ---**
Mr. Saito.
**[12:38] ---**
You really came...
**[12:40] ---**
Is everyone else all right?
**[12:42] ---**
Yes, everyone's gathered
in one area, just as you asked.
**[12:46] ---**
Good. Your son is waiting for you
at the other end of the coast.
**[12:51] ---**
Th-Thank you so much.
**[12:56] ---**
This is Masaki. The residents are safe.
Please come alongside the pier.
**[13:09] ---**
Looks like they've started.
**[13:11] ---**
Yeah.
**[13:13] ---**
Let's go, too.
**[13:25] ---**
Why do we have to stay here...?
**[13:27] ---**
There's nothing we can do with
two AMAIMs against that monster!
**[13:30] ---**
We've lost contact, and no rescue
is coming. They left us behind.
**[13:36] ---**
Don't say that!
**[13:38] ---**
This is a bridgehead to defend
the Asian military's territory!
**[13:42] ---**
We cannot allow that
silly AMAIM to overrun us!
**[13:46] ---**
We may have insufficient strength,
but this is still the front line.
**[13:52] ---**
We're the only ones
who can protect this island.
**[14:36] ---**
We're almost at the base.
Prepare for combat!
**[14:40] ---**
--Okay!
--Understood!
**[14:42] ---**
Our defense line will be
that valley up ahead.
**[14:44] ---**
We'll attack Ghost from both sides
and try to run it down!
**[14:50] ---**
What is it?! What happened?!
**[14:51] ---**
Switching monitors now.
**[14:55] ---**
Activate all units!
**[14:56] ---**
Activating all units!
**[15:04] ---**
E-Everyone fall back!
**[15:14] ---**
Look out!
**[15:17] ---**
--First Lieutenant!
--Stay there!
**[15:41] ---**
That AMAIM...
**[15:45] ---**
Asian military survivors found!
**[15:47] ---**
Why are they here?
**[15:48] ---**
Call Boss!
**[15:49] ---**
Roger that!
**[15:52] ---**
Okay, let's move.
**[15:54] ---**
Got it!
**[15:59] ---**
Did they leave so we wouldn't be
dragged into the fight?
**[16:02] ---**
Let's retreat!
**[16:09] ---**
Get them in quickly!
**[16:13] ---**
It's fast!
**[16:16] ---**
These attacks are new to us!
**[16:18] ---**
We're moving to plan B! Keep your distance
and move to the designated area!
**[16:23] ---**
Roger that!
**[16:25] ---**
First Lieutenant, was that AMAIM...?
**[16:27] ---**
Yes, the terrorist we've
encountered before. Why is it here?
**[16:34] ---**
Freeze!
**[16:43] ---**
We have our rights based on the treaty.
**[16:47] ---**
We're not military.
**[16:50] ---**
If you're ignoring our rights, then...
**[16:55] ---**
We've got five people in need of rescue.
Head towards us immediately.
**[17:00] ---**
However, we will restrain you.
**[17:04] ---**
We're not military,
**[17:06] ---**
but we'll help those in need,
regardless of race. That's who we are.
**[17:25] ---**
We're at the designated area.
Reiki, get into position.
**[17:29] ---**
Okay.
**[17:47] ---**
Wh-What in the...?!
**[17:48] ---**
Watch out!
**[17:52] ---**
Are you okay, Amou?!
**[17:53] ---**
I-It's...
**[17:55] ---**
Yeah, looks like it modified itself.
**[17:59] ---**
--It's coming this way!
--Yeah!
**[18:13] ---**
Shion, now!
**[18:14] ---**
Okay!
**[18:15] ---**
Controlling recoil, correcting aim!
**[18:17] ---**
Blast off!
**[18:33] ---**
Bull's-eye!
**[18:34] ---**
I'll finish you off!
**[18:38] ---**
What?!
**[18:38] ---**
It's grounding itself to direct
the current back into the ground!
**[18:51] ---**
Tezuka!
**[19:00] ---**
It won't last long! Let's move fast!
**[19:03] ---**
Roger that!
**[19:07] ---**
From the last battle,
**[19:08] ---**
Ghost's power, response time,
and speed have clearly improved.
**[19:12] ---**
It also customized its equipment
and capability to its own liking.
**[19:16] ---**
Its self-improving feature
is unbelievable!
**[19:19] ---**
Self-improving...
**[19:20] ---**
It's coming!
**[19:23] ---**
--Go up!
--Okay!
**[19:34] ---**
Amou!
**[19:34] ---**
Tezuka! Plan A!
**[19:36] ---**
We'll send the revised coordinates later!
**[19:39] ---**
Understood!
**[19:44] ---**
Good! It took the bait!
**[19:46] ---**
Optimal route!
**[19:47] ---**
Calculating!
**[19:50] ---**
After we reach the mountaintop,
it's all downhill!
**[19:52] ---**
Got it!
**[19:54] ---**
It's going to start climbing in
ten seconds! It's hot on our tail!
**[20:01] ---**
Everyone is onboard.
**[20:03] ---**
Everyone is onboard here, too.
**[20:06] ---**
Okay, start departing!
**[20:17] ---**
I see it!
**[20:18] ---**
The ammunition depot!
**[20:19] ---**
Amou!
**[20:20] ---**
Yeah, I can make it!
**[20:22] ---**
Amou, behind you!
**[20:50] ---**
Eat this!
**[20:54] ---**
Okay, let's close the door!
**[21:05] ---**
This is this outpost's ammunition depot.
**[21:07] ---**
We also added more explosives to it, too!
**[21:13] ---**
Gashin!
**[21:15] ---**
Yeah!
**[21:47] ---**
Did they do it?
**[21:55] ---**
With such a large explosion, it must've
done a good amount of damage!
**[21:58] ---**
--Hold on!
--I'm picking up movement
inside the flames!
**[22:10] ---**
No way...

**[00:29] ---**
All that and I still can't get through...!
**[00:31] ---**
Do I hear whining? You gonna quit?
**[00:37] ---**
Never. That thing's dangerous.
We have to defeat it!
**[00:40] ---**
That's right, Amou! Let's do this!
**[00:45] ---**
Yeah!
**[01:01] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[02:24] ---**
You...!
**[02:29] ---**
My princess!
**[02:30] ---**
I'm okay...
**[02:31] ---**
Shion, Amou, let's do this just like
we practiced in the simulation!
**[02:35] ---**
Okay!
**[02:44] ---**
Looks like they've already started.
**[02:46] ---**
We might've missed the beginning,
but I'm glad we made it.
**[02:50] ---**
Captain, using long-distance
radio is too risky.
**[02:54] ---**
The Asian military will detect it,
and our location could be--
**[02:58] ---**
It'll be fine. If that happens, we'll get
rid of all the equipment and leave.
**[03:03] ---**
What's important is the data.
**[03:05] ---**
Send the video to Capricorn.
I want the combat data analyzed.
**[03:10] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[03:11] ---**
All right. Let's see how much Ghost
and the original AMAIM have improved.
**[03:17] ---**
You seem to be enjoying this.
**[03:19] ---**
Of course I am.
**[03:21] ---**
If the original AMAIM wins, our mission
to defeat Ghost is accomplished.
**[03:26] ---**
And if Ghost wins?
**[03:28] ---**
If we're lucky, we can recover
the original AMAIM itself.
**[03:33] ---**
We could probably recover
one out of the three.
**[03:37] ---**
Either way, it'll work in our favor.
**[03:41] ---**
Do you think we'll be able
to recover the AI units?
**[03:45] ---**
Who knows?
**[03:47] ---**
However, I do believe
I'm a man of great luck.
**[03:59] ---**
Dammit, we can't tell
what's going on from here.
**[04:03] ---**
Can we get a little closer?
**[04:04] ---**
We'd have to be suicidal to do it.
**[04:07] ---**
With this many passengers onboard and
the distance to cover with limited fuel...
**[04:12] ---**
Not too bright, are you?
**[04:14] ---**
What?!
**[04:15] ---**
You may have restrained us,
but the body-checks were sloppy.
**[04:19] ---**
Had it been more thorough, you would've
found my military-issued cell.
**[04:28] ---**
If I was threatened and forced
to share my passcode to you,
**[04:33] ---**
you'd be able to access
the island's security camera from it.
**[04:36] ---**
You could also unlock the attachment
authentication feature for the AMAIMs.
**[04:40] ---**
Why tell us this?
**[04:43] ---**
I'm just talking to myself.
**[04:46] ---**
Even under threat,
you still leaked military intel.
**[04:50] ---**
There'll be consequences to pay.
**[04:54] ---**
A small price to pay
to save my men's lives.
**[05:10] ---**
Shion!
**[05:17] ---**
We've got this! Keep pushing!
**[05:19] ---**
Right!
**[05:20] ---**
Okay!
**[05:30] ---**
Above you!
**[05:36] ---**
Ghost... It's already
adapting to our teamwork!
**[05:39] ---**
No, it was already showing
signs of that before this.
**[05:42] ---**
It must have had experience fighting
against three manned AMAIMs before this!
**[05:47] ---**
Th-This is bad, Amou!
**[05:50] ---**
We're automatically crunching numbers...
**[05:53] ---**
Our winning percentage was
over 50% in the simulation, but now...
**[05:59] ---**
It's dropping as time goes on.
**[06:01] ---**
Gashin.
**[06:03] ---**
We know what happened.
Our plan failed, correct?
**[06:08] ---**
Yes.
**[06:09] ---**
Then fall back. Everyone in need of rescue
has made it to the safe zone.
**[06:14] ---**
One of the two goals was accomplished.
**[06:16] ---**
No!
**[06:18] ---**
I can tell because we're fighting it.
Ghost isn't going to let us go.
**[06:23] ---**
Even if we fall back,
it'll take down at least one of us!
**[06:27] ---**
That's what our calculation shows, too.
**[06:29] ---**
Then we'd rather stay and fight
to go home together!
**[06:32] ---**
Yeah, that's right!
**[06:34] ---**
Wouldn't have it any other way.
**[06:36] ---**
Looks like we're all on the same page.
**[06:39] ---**
Boss, could you back us up?
**[06:42] ---**
All right.
**[06:43] ---**
Let's gather as much intel as we can.
**[06:45] ---**
How's the attachment
authentication feature looking?
**[06:47] ---**
Eighty more seconds!
**[07:00] ---**
Something's not right...
**[07:02] ---**
What?
**[07:03] ---**
It has extraordinary power and speed
because its limiters are disabled.
**[07:07] ---**
That means its battery
should die before ours does.
**[07:10] ---**
Yeah, especially since its power usage
is being pushed even higher.
**[07:31] ---**
The weight of two units is too much...!
**[07:50] ---**
Is it doing what I think it's doing?
**[07:52] ---**
Is it actually pulling in energy?
**[07:55] ---**
Looks like it. I'm detecting energy flow.
**[07:58] ---**
What *is* that thing?
**[08:01] ---**
Just received intel from Kumai.
**[08:03] ---**
Looks like the attachment
authentication feature's unlocked!
**[08:06] ---**
He also sent images
from the security camera.
**[08:10] ---**
These are...
**[08:11] ---**
Thermal images.
**[08:12] ---**
What's that behind it?
**[08:15] ---**
I knew it!
**[08:16] ---**
Ghost's somehow maintaining
a very high-power output.
**[08:19] ---**
It'll overheat itself if it can't
release the heat its generating.
**[08:24] ---**
That's a heat sink to transfer heat.
**[08:27] ---**
Which means...
**[08:28] ---**
We just found its weak point?
**[08:33] ---**
Amou, we'll meet up
at the coordinates in Plan D.
**[08:37] ---**
Got it!
**[08:50] ---**
Amou...
**[08:51] ---**
What...?
**[08:52] ---**
We're transferring Jogan
and Reiki's energy to Kenbu.
**[08:56] ---**
But that means--
**[08:57] ---**
Don't worry, we'll still be able to move.
**[09:01] ---**
We'll be able to provide backup.
**[09:02] ---**
According to our calculations,
this is also the best strategy.
**[09:07] ---**
Come on, it's time to man up!
**[09:12] ---**
We're all going to survive this, remember?
**[09:14] ---**
We're counting on you.
**[09:18] ---**
Let's do this, Amou! We're gonna win!
**[09:24] ---**
Yeah!
**[09:38] ---**
It's power and speed are higher than ours!
**[09:43] ---**
We'll continue leading
Ghost to the hangar!
**[09:45] ---**
Let's make use of
the Asian military's weapons!
**[09:47] ---**
Right!
**[09:54] ---**
Amou's doing good. Let's get going, too.
**[09:58] ---**
R-Right, but are you okay?
**[10:01] ---**
Just moving shouldn't be a problem.
**[10:03] ---**
We don't know how long
he'll last alone against Ghost.
**[10:08] ---**
Let's hurry!
**[10:09] ---**
All right!
**[10:22] ---**
It's all destroyed...
**[10:25] ---**
Let's use that one!
**[10:37] ---**
Eat this!
**[10:53] ---**
Crap!
**[10:57] ---**
Now, Amou!
**[10:58] ---**
Okay!
**[11:11] ---**
I'm in position. What about you, Reiki?
**[11:15] ---**
I'm in position as well.
**[11:16] ---**
Ghost is still in perfect condition!
**[11:19] ---**
Its learning capability is frightening.
**[11:22] ---**
Our odds of winning decrease
as time passes. This will be over quick.
**[11:27] ---**
We'll signal you the timing.
**[11:30] ---**
Roger that.
**[11:36] ---**
Amou! We received
communication from Tezuka.
**[11:38] ---**
Okay!
**[11:49] ---**
Amou, I'm going to disable the limiters.
**[11:51] ---**
What?
**[11:53] ---**
Kenbu has limiters in place to
protect the unit against overload.
**[11:59] ---**
I'm going to disable it,
so we can only fight for a short time.
**[12:04] ---**
But if we can surpass Ghost,
or just even stop it...
**[12:10] ---**
Then Tezuka and Shion
will take care of the rest.
**[12:13] ---**
That's right.
**[12:18] ---**
All right, let's do it!
**[12:19] ---**
Hang on tight, Amou!
**[12:21] ---**
Okay!
**[12:23] ---**
MAILeS Kenbu, full boost!
**[12:39] ---**
It's so fast!
This is Kenbu's true speed...?
**[12:54] ---**
Ghost's already responding to our speed!
**[12:56] ---**
True, but our speed and power
matches Ghost's!
**[12:59] ---**
It's different this time!
**[13:05] ---**
I didn't know about that feature.
**[13:07] ---**
Likely one that's unique to Kenbu,
a hand-to-hand combat type unit.
**[13:11] ---**
But it's a double-edged sword.
**[13:14] ---**
Double-edged sword... Amou...
**[13:19] ---**
R23.14, decompress the cylinders!
**[13:22] ---**
Got it!
**[13:24] ---**
Balancer to 2.5!
**[13:27] ---**
Front 60! Balance position to -2!
**[13:29] ---**
I'm going to counterattack!
**[13:31] ---**
LL monitor, drive! Adjust gain to +6!
**[13:34] ---**
Clear!
**[13:35] ---**
Go!
**[13:38] ---**
This is how Amou and Gai fight together.
**[13:53] ---**
Wait! The winning percentage
according to our calculation is...
**[13:58] ---**
It's rising as time goes on...
**[14:17] ---**
Now!
**[14:18] ---**
Shion!
**[14:29] ---**
Gashin!
**[14:29] ---**
Yeah, a single moment's all I need!
**[14:40] ---**
Now!
**[14:40] ---**
Right!
**[14:52] ---**
We're at our limit! I'm going to
re-enable the limiters!
**[14:58] ---**
It's starting to overheat.
**[15:00] ---**
Yes. With that much damage on top of
the excessive heat surrounding it,
**[15:05] ---**
it's starting to overheat.
**[15:07] ---**
It'll trigger a thermal runaway and Ghost
will explode in the next few minutes.
**[15:15] ---**
The ocean! It's trying to get away!
**[15:17] ---**
Not if I can help it!
**[15:19] ---**
It's planning on using sea water
to prevent itself from overheating!
**[15:30] ---**
Get away, Amou! It's gonna blow!
**[15:32] ---**
I can't!
**[15:33] ---**
You'll be caught in the explosion!
**[15:41] ---**
If we let Ghost go now,
**[15:45] ---**
it'll repair itself again!
**[15:49] ---**
Like Ms. Risa and others,
**[15:52] ---**
people unbeknown to us
will be victimized...
**[15:56] ---**
I refuse to let that happen!
**[16:03] ---**
Ghost's temperature is rising!
**[16:05] ---**
We have to avenge
your father's death, too!
**[16:07] ---**
Not in exchange for your life!
We can regroup and try again!
**[16:12] ---**
This ends, here and now.
We need to protect the people!
**[16:17] ---**
That's what the Resistance is for!
**[16:19] ---**
Wait, Amou...
**[16:21] ---**
You can't do this! No!
**[16:32] ---**
The camera's about to go.
**[16:35] ---**
I can't calculate the corrections
accurately because of the heat.
**[16:39] ---**
Gai.
**[16:41] ---**
What is it, Amou?
**[16:45] ---**
I'm sorry for dragging you into this.
**[16:49] ---**
I don't mind.
**[16:53] ---**
Like I said before; I owe you my life.
**[16:58] ---**
I'm sticking with you.
**[17:12] ---**
Sensor's gone up in flames.
**[17:13] ---**
I'm switching to pilot's
life-preservation mode.
**[17:19] ---**
I don't know how long I'll last,
**[17:22] ---**
but I'll protect you
with everything I've got, Amou!
**[17:29] ---**
My life changed the moment I met you, Gai.
**[17:36] ---**
And if I'm able to protect
someone's future because of that,
**[17:42] ---**
I'm kinda happy with that.
**[17:46] ---**
That's what human feelings
are about, right?
**[17:49] ---**
Can you reach Gai?
**[17:51] ---**
It's offline. The communication
circuit's probably down.
**[17:57] ---**
Ghost is reaching a critical point.
**[18:16] ---**
Amou!
**[18:27] ---**
"Restaurant: Saito"
**[18:31] ---**
He's only received first aid care.
You need to take him to the hospital soon.
**[18:36] ---**
You're sure about this?
**[18:37] ---**
We don't have enough resources
to take care of prisoners.
**[18:45] ---**
Thank you. You have our word; We won't
share any intel on you to our military.
**[18:50] ---**
But I'm a soldier. If we meet
on the battlefield, I won't hold back.
**[18:59] ---**
Likewise.
**[19:04] ---**
All right, understood.
How are Gashin and Shion?
**[19:08] ---**
"Signal Lost"
"Damage: Left Leg" "Damage: Left Arm"
All right, understood.
How are Gashin and Shion?
**[19:08] ---**
"Signal Lost"
"Damage: Left Leg" "Damage: Left Arm"
Well, they wouldn't
come out of their cockpits,
**[19:12] ---**
Well, they wouldn't
come out of their cockpits,
**[19:13] ---**
so it was a pain to recover the units.
**[19:16] ---**
They finally managed to load them onboard,
and are headed this way.
**[19:20] ---**
Good. Please tell Gashin
and Shion to get some rest.
**[19:24] ---**
Also, it's possible our temporary camp
has been compromised.
**[19:30] ---**
You'll need to quickly move to the new HQ.
**[19:32] ---**
I understand.
**[19:34] ---**
"Signal Lost"
"Missing In Action"
**[19:36] ---**
"Signal Lost"
"Missing In Action"
One MIA.
**[19:39] ---**
Everyone in need of rescue is safe.
**[19:43] ---**
From a mission standpoint,
this is a success, but...
**[19:48] ---**
No, I can wallow and repent
when this is all over.
**[19:54] ---**
My job as the head of this organization
**[19:58] ---**
is to figure our next steps.
**[20:03] ---**
Let me ask again. Are you sure
you didn't see the terrorists' faces?
**[20:09] ---**
Yes. They wore masks when they
attacked us, and confiscated my cellphone.
**[20:15] ---**
They threatened to kill my men. I had
no choice but to tell them my passcode.
**[20:20] ---**
Your team has provided us
with similar statements.
**[20:25] ---**
However, you've leaked
classified information.
**[20:27] ---**
I'm prepared for any reprimand.
**[20:29] ---**
We need to bring the citizens
from Nishinoshima back.
**[20:32] ---**
We also need to rebuild
the First and Second Outpost.
**[20:36] ---**
We're busy with the prep work.
**[20:39] ---**
We'll let you know
how we'll handle you later.
**[20:42] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[20:50] ---**
There's not much of anything left...
**[20:53] ---**
Everything else is below, or...
**[21:02] ---**
We lost Gai's signal before the explosion
and it hasn't come back.
**[21:07] ---**
Yeah...
**[21:09] ---**
Boss, we need to go.
**[21:11] ---**
All right.
**[21:13] ---**
If we stay too long,
the Asian military will spot us.
**[21:16] ---**
We also need to get to
the new HQ. Let's go.
**[21:27] ---**
Idiot...
**[23:20] ---**
Remember my name, Brad Watt!
**[23:24] ---**
It hacked back the signal I used
that day to contact me.
**[23:33] ---**
I'm flattered you came to me for help.
**[23:37] ---**
I'll try not to disappoint you.
**[23:43] ---**
From now on,
I'll put you to full use...
**[23:50] ---**
...Ghost.

"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
What's on your mind, Gashin?
**[23:58] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
I fought Ghost to avenge
my father's death.
**[24:02] ---**
But Amou fought to prevent
casualties in the future.
**[24:08] ---**
I'm going to continue to fight.
**[24:11] ---**
I know.

**[00:15] ---**
Amou!
**[00:24] ---**
Eight months have passed
since the battle at the Oki Islands.
**[00:30] ---**
September 2061
**[00:31] ---**
During that time, the borders for each
nation's territory in Japan had changed.
**[00:31] ---**
October 2061
**[00:33] ---**
November 2061
**[00:34] ---**
December 2061
**[00:35] ---**
Simply put, the NAC expanded its
territory, calling them autonomous cities.
**[00:36] ---**
January 2062
**[00:37] ---**
February 2062
**[00:38] ---**
March 2062
**[00:40] ---**
April 2062
**[00:41] ---**
May 2062
**[00:43] ---**
The reason for their victories is clear.
**[00:46] ---**
The North American military
won the autonomous AI race
**[00:53] ---**
and used them to great effect.
**[00:56] ---**
They worked well with existing
manned and unmanned units,
**[01:00] ---**
and they had the track record
to prove their usefulness.
**[01:04] ---**
The Asian, Oceanian,
and Eurasian militaries
**[01:08] ---**
all began developing
units with autonomous AIs,
**[01:13] ---**
but the North American military
were a step or two ahead.
**[01:20] ---**
The borderlines of the Japanese
Archipelago change day to day...
**[01:27] ---**
...regardless of what
the Japanese citizens want.
**[01:38] ---**
In the year 2062,
this is Japan's current situation.
**[01:44] ---**
Episode 14: Eight Months Later
**[02:03] ---**
Shion!
**[02:04] ---**
I see you! Over here!
**[02:08] ---**
My princess, stay on this course!
**[02:10] ---**
Okay!
**[02:18] ---**
Target locked, ready to open fire!
**[02:24] ---**
We are still fighting.
**[02:44] ---**
AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline
**[02:51] ---**
**[04:06] ---**
I see, so they got away.
**[04:08] ---**
Yes.
**[04:09] ---**
Everything's going as planned.
**[04:11] ---**
Are we really doing this?
**[04:13] ---**
Second Lieutenant Knox,
do you eat your favorite dish first
**[04:18] ---**
or save it for last?
**[04:21] ---**
Sir?
**[04:25] ---**
I prefer to save it for last,
and eat as much as I want.
**[04:30] ---**
Until I tire from it.
**[04:32] ---**
Thanks to autonomous AIs,
**[04:35] ---**
manned units can go
to the frontlines more.
**[04:40] ---**
Wouldn't you want to savor it
to your heart's content?
**[04:51] ---**
No signs of enemies within a 5km radius.
**[04:54] ---**
We shouldn't be attacked
by anyone anytime soon.
**[04:57] ---**
They took some hits, too.
**[05:00] ---**
They'll likely come back
after resupplying themselves.
**[05:03] ---**
Resupply, huh? Must be nice
to have that luxury.
**[05:07] ---**
Complaining won't get us anything.
**[05:10] ---**
Good work, everyone. What's our status?
**[05:12] ---**
We got word that Tsukuyomi
got through to Fukui prefecture.
**[05:16] ---**
Unfortunately, there are other groups
and refugees nearby,
**[05:20] ---**
and we can't get in touch with them.
**[05:23] ---**
Your mission is to rescue people
left behind due to the borderline change.
**[05:29] ---**
You'll need to move them
outside the NAC's territory.
**[05:33] ---**
Security in the North American military
**[05:38] ---**
is tighter than the Asian's
and Oceanian's.
**[05:41] ---**
The power of each Resistance member
and refugee is small.
**[05:45] ---**
But united, we will become a force
large enough to win back Japan.
**[05:51] ---**
We're counting on you.
**[05:52] ---**
--Of course!
--Roger.
**[05:53] ---**
Roger!
**[05:54] ---**
Chairman, any word from Brenson Corp?
**[05:59] ---**
Nothing yet.
**[06:01] ---**
I have no new intel other than
what Kei and Nayuta found before.
**[06:06] ---**
Before we lost contact with Brenson Corp,
**[06:09] ---**
there were some incidents
and accidents overseas.
**[06:13] ---**
An industrial building in North Africa,
**[06:15] ---**
a gunpowder plant in Mideast,
a business firm in France...
**[06:19] ---**
There are more,
**[06:21] ---**
but all these facilities have collapsed
or exploded around the same time.
**[06:26] ---**
Not all of them may be connected,
**[06:29] ---**
but since we lost communication
immediately after these incidents,
**[06:32] ---**
it's highly possible that they were
owned by Brenson Corp,
**[06:34] ---**
and someone attacked them.
**[06:38] ---**
According to online rumors,
the North American military is behind it.
**[06:43] ---**
Regardless, we're currently
without Brenson Corp's support.
**[06:47] ---**
We have few AMAIM parts and supplies left.
**[06:51] ---**
Times are tough for us, but...
**[06:54] ---**
We'll continue to fight!
**[06:57] ---**
We'll fight and survive,
to "protect the people" of tomorrow!
**[07:04] ---**
Tezuka...
**[07:08] ---**
Yes, you're right.
**[07:15] ---**
You're looking sharper
than usual, Captain.
**[07:18] ---**
I look the same.
**[07:19] ---**
Seems like you're having fun.
**[07:21] ---**
I'm smiling to hide my nervousness.
**[07:24] ---**
It's a big task.
**[07:26] ---**
Yes, I'm presenting my opinion
about the units with autonomous AIs
**[07:31] ---**
to government officials and the military
top brass, as a field worker.
**[07:35] ---**
In other words,
**[07:36] ---**
our future budget depends on
how well you do.
**[07:39] ---**
Charlie asked me to tell you
to get the biggest budget you can.
**[07:45] ---**
I'll do my best to not fail him.
**[07:48] ---**
Good luck.
**[07:51] ---**
Thanks.
**[08:11] ---**
Damn the North American military!
**[08:13] ---**
Fall back! Fall back!
**[08:15] ---**
This way, hurry!
**[08:18] ---**
Hey, wait! Take me with you!
**[08:29] ---**
Run! Hide in the forest!
**[08:33] ---**
Group One, Group Two,
head to Point C7 and F5 accordingly.
**[08:37] ---**
Group Four is through Point D8.
**[08:43] ---**
The meeting's finally adjourned...
**[08:44] ---**
You must be tired. It was a long one.
**[08:47] ---**
Six hours, nonstop. Really...
**[08:50] ---**
Charlie's waiting for you.
**[08:52] ---**
Captain, how'd it go?
Did you get us a huge budget?
**[08:56] ---**
I don't know yet.
There's another one tomorrow.
**[08:59] ---**
Anyway, how's the other project going?
**[09:02] ---**
Honestly, I wish it'd give me a break.
**[09:04] ---**
There's no way I can tame that thing.
**[09:07] ---**
I have my faith in the Development Agency.
Do whatever it takes to succeed.
**[09:13] ---**
Creating a robot that can handle
*that thing* is the key to future battles.
**[09:20] ---**
In that case, please get us that budget.
**[09:22] ---**
All right. I'll see you later.
**[09:31] ---**
Captain?
**[09:32] ---**
Is this what adrenaline feels like?
**[09:35] ---**
It feels like the tiredness
I was feeling is gone.
**[09:40] ---**
So far, we're on course.
**[09:48] ---**
Ah, there it is.
**[09:51] ---**
What's wrong?
**[09:53] ---**
I thought I'd do some maintenance, too.
**[09:57] ---**
It may not be much, but...
**[10:01] ---**
It wouldn't hurt. This is an expedition.
**[10:04] ---**
We don't even have enough guards.
**[10:10] ---**
I wonder what happened to
Ms. Misuzu after that day?
**[10:14] ---**
Mr. Muramatsu's trying,
but he can't reach her.
**[10:18] ---**
I'm sure she has her reasons.
**[10:20] ---**
Like what? Family issues?
**[10:24] ---**
Do you think she got sick of us?
**[10:27] ---**
How would I know?!
**[10:29] ---**
You're right...
**[10:30] ---**
Gashin, for the last time...
You need to learn how to speak to people.
**[10:38] ---**
Sorry...
**[10:40] ---**
I hope Mr. German and
Ms. Misuzu are doing fine.
**[10:44] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:46] ---**
To be honest, I've had
too much time on my hands.
**[10:52] ---**
Too much time to myself.
**[10:57] ---**
Ever since that day,
I've tried to make a pot a few times.
**[11:01] ---**
But it never goes well. I can't focus.
**[11:06] ---**
I can't get my mind to stay on the clay.
**[11:09] ---**
I've never had this issue before...
**[11:15] ---**
That's why I came here.
**[11:19] ---**
Because I'll overthink if I'm alone,
about all sorts of things...
**[11:30] ---**
You can quit, you know.
**[11:32] ---**
You don't have to stay
just because you're Reiki's pilot.
**[11:37] ---**
It's one option--
**[11:38] ---**
I'm not quitting!
**[11:41] ---**
I want to bring back Himeno wares.
**[11:43] ---**
To do that, we need to get Japan back.
**[11:47] ---**
So, I won't quit.
**[11:48] ---**
That's my princess! You said it!
**[11:51] ---**
I, Angelo, will always stick by
your side, my princess!
**[12:07] ---**
Gashin, wake up! We have company!
**[12:10] ---**
What?
**[12:11] ---**
--My princess, you need to wake up, now!
**[12:12] ---**
--Mmm, what? What is it?
--My princess, you need to wake up, now!
**[12:14] ---**
Just wake up! You'll understand
when you go outside!
**[12:22] ---**
Huh? All these people? Why?!
**[12:32] ---**
This isn't good...
**[12:36] ---**
We can still fight!
Just give us some ammo!
**[12:39] ---**
We would if we weren't short ourselves.
**[12:42] ---**
Do you have any nursing covers?
**[12:44] ---**
And something that
can be used as a diaper?
**[12:46] ---**
I'll go look.
**[12:48] ---**
Please wait here.
I'll go talk to our leader.
**[12:53] ---**
I see, the nearby populace
has gathered there...
**[12:56] ---**
Enemy front lines were
scattered until today.
**[12:59] ---**
Now, they have us surrounded.
**[13:02] ---**
That's why there are more people now.
**[13:06] ---**
Right.
**[13:06] ---**
The enemy likely corralled them here.
**[13:09] ---**
Probably. By doing so,
they can focus on one target.
**[13:15] ---**
We'll also grow in size,
making it difficult to move.
**[13:20] ---**
How many people are gathered at your site?
**[13:23] ---**
35 resistance members
and 86 refugees. 121 in total.
**[13:30] ---**
Hmm...
**[13:31] ---**
There are elders and children
among the refugees.
**[13:35] ---**
Even if we did move, it wouldn't be fast.
**[13:37] ---**
We're low on food and
I don't know how long it'll last.
**[13:41] ---**
I see.
**[13:43] ---**
I'm sorry, the enemies were on our tail,
and we found ourselves here...
**[13:48] ---**
We fell into their trap.
**[13:50] ---**
Our combat vehicle's destroyed
and we ran out of ammo.
**[13:54] ---**
But we don't want to hold you down!
**[13:57] ---**
If push comes to shove, we can be decoys!
**[14:00] ---**
If you could break out of their
encirclement with the refugees, then--
**[14:04] ---**
No, that's not an option!
**[14:05] ---**
We're better suited as decoys!
**[14:08] ---**
With our AMAIMs, we can fight
the enemy AMAIMs, and--
**[14:11] ---**
It's no good.
**[14:13] ---**
Jogan and Reiki aren't super-machines.
**[14:16] ---**
There's a limit to how fast we can move
with so many refugees.
**[14:21] ---**
It's almost impossible for just
the two of us to handle an entire army.
**[14:27] ---**
Worst case, we'll be
flanked and taken down.
**[14:32] ---**
But, then, what do we do?
**[14:36] ---**
We won't be leaving anyone behind.
**[14:39] ---**
Let's think of a way to get through this.
**[14:43] ---**
That's what we're here for.
**[14:45] ---**
Yup, that's right.
**[14:52] ---**
We don't have much time.
**[14:54] ---**
Troops are moving in from Point 7.
**[14:57] ---**
They triggered the sensor in
south-southeast, 12.5 klicks from here.
**[15:00] ---**
They're here.
**[15:02] ---**
Since they're regular military forces,
they can't attack civilians.
**[15:06] ---**
Maybe we can use that to our advantage.
**[15:23] ---**
They're surrendering? How boring.
**[15:28] ---**
This is Captain Tony Blanc from Point 7,
Unit 23 of the North American military!
**[15:35] ---**
Does that white flag mean
you are surrendering?!
**[15:39] ---**
We will not surrender.
**[15:41] ---**
However, we have
unarmed civilians with us.
**[15:45] ---**
Take them in as refugees,
or let us take them to safety first.
**[15:51] ---**
Under military law,
this negotiation is valid.
**[15:54] ---**
I know, but there's no guarantee that
they're not terrorists themselves.
**[16:00] ---**
They won't be armed. You can even
check their identities and belongings.
**[16:07] ---**
Hey, where are you going?! Come back!
**[16:10] ---**
In return, we ask for you
to guarantee their safety.
**[16:14] ---**
Captain!
**[16:15] ---**
Quit pestering me. You want me to
reach out to HQ for instructions, yes?
**[16:20] ---**
But under emergency situations,
judgments made on the field take priority.
**[16:25] ---**
That's why we deploy manned units!
**[16:29] ---**
Don't be afraid.
**[16:31] ---**
I have a little job for you.
**[16:35] ---**
If you succeed,
I'll grant you NAC citizenship.
**[16:40] ---**
Don't you want to escape poverty?
**[16:43] ---**
Wh-What's the job?
**[16:45] ---**
Oh, it's just a simple one.
**[16:47] ---**
When it's the right time,
I just want you to cause a little ruckus.
**[16:52] ---**
That's all.
**[16:54] ---**
Your future depends on this one choice.
**[16:58] ---**
Live out the rest of
your days in subjugation,
**[17:01] ---**
or switch sides and
join those who take charge.
**[17:12] ---**
Let me contact HQ.
Wait until I hear back from them.
**[17:16] ---**
All right.
**[17:21] ---**
What?
**[17:23] ---**
I'm not gonna fall for your lies!
**[17:27] ---**
A gun?!
**[17:30] ---**
They've opened fire! The enemy is hostile!
Negotiations have fallen through!
**[17:34] ---**
All units, open fire!
**[17:36] ---**
Wait, we didn't--
**[17:42] ---**
It's no use, Mr. Kumai! We have to fight!
**[17:44] ---**
We need to run! Now!
**[17:47] ---**
Mr. Kumai, Mr. Masaki,
please get the refugees out of here!
**[17:50] ---**
We'll draw the enemies' attention!
**[17:52] ---**
We owe you!
**[17:54] ---**
Enemy units are moving to the left!
**[17:56] ---**
Not if I can help it!
**[18:00] ---**
Please follow our instructions
and evacuate, now!
**[18:05] ---**
This is a nightmare! It's chaos!
**[18:10] ---**
I did it... I did it, sir!
**[18:16] ---**
Huh?
**[18:18] ---**
Hmph.
**[18:21] ---**
Captain, that man...
**[18:23] ---**
Was a terrorist. So, I killed him.
Is there a problem?
**[18:29] ---**
Elliot, you let this happen,
so you've got blood on your hands, too.
**[18:35] ---**
Do you want to go to
military prison with me?
**[18:39] ---**
I think you and I will be good friends.
Very good friends.
**[18:44] ---**
Point I5 and I6 are under control.
**[18:47] ---**
Point Q9 is under control as well.
**[18:49] ---**
Alpha Unit is attacking Point M8.
**[18:52] ---**
Beta Unit has Point O6 under control.
**[18:57] ---**
How did this happen...?
**[18:59] ---**
We need to get to safety somehow...
**[19:14] ---**
I found the command unit!
Is the data linked?!
**[19:16] ---**
Yes. We're taking it down now!
**[19:30] ---**
Going after the command unit
is a common tactic.
**[19:33] ---**
Of course, we have countermeasures.
**[19:35] ---**
What's more, our military's autonomous AI
**[19:40] ---**
knows how to deal with
small numbers of enemies.
**[19:46] ---**
It's accurate cover fire is
preventing us from returning fire!
**[19:57] ---**
Don't push yourself, my princess!
**[19:59] ---**
The durability of armor
and joints are decreasing!
**[20:02] ---**
But...
**[20:05] ---**
This deployment of units,
and precision shooting...
**[20:08] ---**
This isn't the usual combat AI
the North American military's been using.
**[20:13] ---**
Our location isn't helping, either.
**[20:14] ---**
We need to temporary
fall back and regroup!
**[20:17] ---**
Boss! Are the civilians evacuated?!
**[20:19] ---**
Not yet! They're panicking
from all the chaos!
**[20:28] ---**
Shion!
**[20:31] ---**
Crap!
**[20:33] ---**
From behind?!
**[20:36] ---**
Masaki?!
**[20:41] ---**
Dammit!
**[20:46] ---**
Can't we do anything?
**[20:50] ---**
Is there really nothing we can do?!
**[20:53] ---**
This signal...
**[20:54] ---**
Could it be...?
**[21:14] ---**
What is it?!
**[21:15] ---**
We're picking up a different signal!
It's an unknown AMAIM!
**[21:21] ---**
What?!
**[21:26] ---**
A black AMAIM?
**[21:28] ---**
Is that...?
**[21:40] ---**
Impossible... It took down
all those units in a split second...
**[21:59] ---**
Is that Kenbu?
**[22:01] ---**
Amou...?
**[23:49] ---**
Next on AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline
**[23:52] ---**
Is that AMAIM Kenbu?
**[23:53] ---**
Yes, there's no mistake.
**[23:55] ---**
We're picking up Gai's signal, too.
**[23:57] ---**
I'm so glad... Amou's alive!
**[23:59] ---**
But we're not out of the woods yet.
Keep your guard up.
**[24:03] ---**
There's something different
about Gai and Amou, too...
**[24:08] ---**

Amou...?
**[00:10] ---**
Tezuka, Shion, can you move?
**[00:12] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[00:14] ---**
Yup!
**[00:15] ---**
I'll dive straight into the enemy lines.
**[00:17] ---**
I'll create chaos and
you two can cover me.
**[00:20] ---**
Roger that.
**[00:21] ---**
You got it.
**[00:22] ---**
We defeated the rear echelon troops!
I'm sending you the route.
**[00:26] ---**
Mr. Kumai, Mr. Masaki,
please evacuate everyone.
**[00:29] ---**
--Copy that!
--All right!
**[00:35] ---**
Let's go!
**[00:52] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[02:14] ---**
Minor damage to one unmanned AMAIM;
11 are completely destroyed.
**[02:17] ---**
Other damage to the combat vehicles
have been reported.
**[02:20] ---**
This is a catastrophic defeat.
**[02:21] ---**
Dammit! Can we resupply?
**[02:24] ---**
Reinforcements will be available
in 12 hours. We can regroup then.
**[02:28] ---**
We won't let them escape!
We'll crush them!
**[02:35] ---**
If you're unwell or in pain,
please let us know.
**[02:39] ---**
We also have a little bit
of food and beverages!
**[02:47] ---**
Amou!
**[02:48] ---**
You're alive!
**[02:52] ---**
It's been a while.
**[03:06] ---**
Idiot.
**[03:07] ---**
Sorry... To you, too, Shion.
**[03:10] ---**
--U-Um, I-I'm--
**[03:12] ---**
--Shion!
--U-Um, I-I'm--
**[03:16] ---**
Long time no see! How've you been?!
**[03:20] ---**
M-Ms. Misuzu!
**[03:22] ---**
Aw, what's this?
Are you that happy to see me?
**[03:25] ---**
I'm just kidding. Sorry.
**[03:28] ---**
Maki...
**[03:29] ---**
Captain Kumai, Lieutenant Masaki,
I apologize for my sudden disappearance.
**[03:34] ---**
I'd like to explain what happened
over the past eight months.
**[03:40] ---**
But before I do...
**[03:42] ---**
We've brought plenty of supplies,
so you can relax a bit!
**[03:47] ---**
We have food, ammo,
even AMAIM replacement parts!
**[03:52] ---**
Chief!
**[03:54] ---**
I'm not comfortable with
hugging it out with you.
**[03:56] ---**
How could you say that?!
**[03:57] ---**
We've worked together for so long!
**[04:07] ---**
It's been so long since--
**[04:09] ---**
Thank you.
**[04:22] ---**
Amou...
**[04:24] ---**
Hey, we're moving to
a different spot. Let's go.
**[04:26] ---**
Um, I'm good. I'm just gonna
go check on Kenbu.
**[04:31] ---**
Huh?
**[04:33] ---**
I'm gonna talk to Amou. Brief me
on what Ms. Misuzu tells you later.
**[04:38] ---**
Tezuka...
**[04:40] ---**
I see. I was hoping to
hear from Amou, but...
**[04:44] ---**
Let's leave it to Gashin.
**[04:46] ---**
By the way, who's this?
**[04:48] ---**
This is Collin Dialo,
**[04:50] ---**
team leader of ARES,
a private military company.
**[04:53] ---**
The development organization
I'm with has a contract with them.
**[04:56] ---**
We've asked them to transport supplies
and provide escorts for us.
**[05:01] ---**
Development organization?
**[05:03] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[05:04] ---**
My full name is Maki Misuzu Annette.
**[05:08] ---**
I'm the president and
chief developer of TRYVECTA,
**[05:11] ---**
an AI development organization
affiliated with Brenson Corp.
**[05:15] ---**
What?!
**[05:16] ---**
I'm the one who developed the autonomous
AI everyone calls "Ghost."
**[05:24] ---**
Only when you give the autonomous AI
control does it reach its full potential.
**[05:31] ---**
However, if it has control over all units
and is allowed to do what it wants,
**[05:36] ---**
troop discipline will be lost.
**[05:39] ---**
That's why, in the field and depending on
the scale of the battle,
**[05:43] ---**
company and battalion commanders would
pilot manned units with autonomous AI,
**[05:48] ---**
while the actual troops would consist of
unmanned units with tactical AIs.
**[05:53] ---**
This is the most efficient
and proven method.
**[05:56] ---**
With constraints like that,
further development of AI units is useless.
**[06:05] ---**
Be careful with Congressman Roy Walker.
**[06:08] ---**
He's garnered support by cutting down
military and government budgets.
**[06:13] ---**
He's bound to criticize
everything you say.
**[06:16] ---**
You'll need to show
good results to shut him up.
**[06:21] ---**
I understand.
**[06:24] ---**
Japan is the front line of the world.
**[06:27] ---**
A victory here will directly
impact global trends.
**[06:31] ---**
Even so, the cost is too high.
**[06:35] ---**
We're currently ahead of
the rest of the world.
**[06:38] ---**
It isn't in our best interest to lose
our momentum in development.
**[06:42] ---**
Some in the media are questioning
the purpose of this war.
**[06:46] ---**
They're growing tired of it.
**[06:49] ---**
Continuing our development is the best
and quickest way to solve that problem.
**[06:54] ---**
Just stop. This is a wasted effort!
**[07:00] ---**
Roy Walker...
**[07:04] ---**
In partnership with Brenson Corp,
we, TRYVECTA,
**[07:08] ---**
began the development of "I-LeS,"
**[07:10] ---**
an autonomous AI
that can work with humans.
**[07:13] ---**
The first autonomous AI we created
was code-named "Prototype Zero."
**[07:19] ---**
Or, as you call it, "Ghost."
**[07:25] ---**
To keep our partnership with
Brenson Corp, we loaned it to them,
**[07:30] ---**
even though we knew the control mechanism
was still a work in progress.
**[07:34] ---**
After an accident during a unit test,
Prototype Zero disappeared.
**[07:41] ---**
After some time, it reappeared as Ghost.
**[07:45] ---**
Brenson Corp has
admitted their fault in this,
**[07:48] ---**
and offered to keep the partnership.
**[07:50] ---**
After that, we created Gai, Kei,
and Nayuta based on Prototype Zero.
**[07:57] ---**
Which means...
**[07:59] ---**
We're the same as Ghost...
**[08:04] ---**
Amou!
**[08:06] ---**
What happened after
the battle at the Oki Islands?
**[08:09] ---**
Where were you? What have you been doing?!
**[08:13] ---**
Sorry, I gotta go check on Kenbu...
**[08:15] ---**
Hey, Amou!
**[08:19] ---**
He doesn't seem to be in
a talkative mood right now.
**[08:22] ---**
Hold on! That makes you
a big shot at the company!
**[08:25] ---**
What are you doing on
our maintenance team?!
**[08:27] ---**
I wanted to see my AIs' growth up close.
**[08:30] ---**
An engineer's passion, if you will.
**[08:33] ---**
"Engineer's passion"...?
**[08:34] ---**
I can relate to that.
**[08:37] ---**
I also wanted to stop Ghost
from wreaking any more havoc.
**[08:43] ---**
After the battle at the Oki Islands
eight months ago,
**[08:45] ---**
I thought we had a real chance
to get Ghost back.
**[08:50] ---**
I'm sorry for taking advantage
of you all like that.
**[08:54] ---**
Aren't I terrible?
**[09:00] ---**
That night, with the help of
Mr. Collin and ARES,
**[09:04] ---**
we got on a boat and waited. But...
**[09:13] ---**
We prioritized saving
Amou and Gai instead.
**[09:19] ---**
I couldn't let them die.
**[09:23] ---**
We quickly covered our tracks and
left before the Asian military came.
**[09:28] ---**
What about Ghost?
**[09:31] ---**
So it's still out there somewhere?!
**[09:33] ---**
No, we know where it is.
**[09:36] ---**
What?!
**[09:37] ---**
The North American military's
Development Agency in Kanto has it.
**[09:39] ---**
German Gobert arranged everything.
**[09:42] ---**
A long day at work, Captain?
**[09:45] ---**
I hear you had quite an argument.
**[09:48] ---**
German, I told you not to
come here unless asked.
**[09:51] ---**
It's just that I heard a rumor,
**[09:54] ---**
and I wanted to see it for myself--
the slip-up I caused.
**[09:59] ---**
Word travels fast.
**[10:07] ---**
Also...
**[10:10] ---**
Congressman Roy Walker.
**[10:18] ---**
Consider it done. Afterall,
I'm very good at doing the dirty work.
**[10:24] ---**
Why would the captain
work with a man like that...?
**[10:26] ---**
We need to trust him. He must have a plan.
**[10:31] ---**
If things fall apart,
we'll be there to stop it.
**[10:39] ---**
After German founded his own organization,
**[10:42] ---**
he weaseled himself into the North American
military, the largest in the world,
**[10:45] ---**
by offering up Ghost.
**[10:47] ---**
Camouflaging them as accidents,
**[10:49] ---**
he then attacked Brenson Corp
and the TRYVECTA facilities.
**[10:53] ---**
Most likely with the goal of
monopolizing the technology.
**[10:56] ---**
So those incidents
and accidents overseas...
**[10:59] ---**
Yes. Fortunately, the nerve center of
the organization was able to escape.
**[11:04] ---**
After that, we spent the next eight months
completing the new Kenbu.
**[11:08] ---**
No wonder I couldn't get a hold of you.
**[11:11] ---**
And German sounds like
a horrible industrial spy!
**[11:14] ---**
He's nefarious.
**[11:16] ---**
After investigating
Ghost's disappearance
**[11:21] ---**
and the time when Gai
was found on the ground,
**[11:24] ---**
we found out that he was the one
pulling the strings all along.
**[11:27] ---**
We think he started to
enact his plan that far back.
**[11:32] ---**
At the time, the people from
the development organization
**[11:35] ---**
were transporting Gai.
**[11:38] ---**
Because of his position, German knew
where Kenbu would be assembled,
**[11:43] ---**
so he made sure Kenbu's parts
would be hard to transport.
**[11:47] ---**
At the same time,
German sent his men to recover Gai.
**[11:52] ---**
Sensing she was in danger, she escaped.
**[11:57] ---**
She hid Gai where no one would find it.
**[12:00] ---**
As she was contacting us to tell us
the hiding spot, German's men got to her.
**[12:08] ---**
But eventually, Gai found its way back.
**[12:14] ---**
She can rest in peace.
**[12:19] ---**
Um, so what was Amou doing
during the past eight months?
**[12:25] ---**
Nayuta, did Amou say anything?
**[12:28] ---**
No, he wasn't in the mood.
**[12:31] ---**
Well then, it's probably best
if I keep my mouth shut.
**[12:35] ---**
It's his story to tell.
**[12:37] ---**
What?
**[12:55] ---**
Thank you...
**[12:57] ---**
And so, we went on an expedition
to Shikoku and Kyushu. Right?
**[13:03] ---**
Yeah.
**[13:03] ---**
Where were you, Amou?
**[13:05] ---**
Uh, I was overseas...
With Ms. Misuzu's organization...
**[13:11] ---**
What was it like? Was it fun?
**[13:14] ---**
Um, yeah, I guess...
**[13:17] ---**
I'm so jealous. I'd love to go abroad.
**[13:20] ---**
I'll be by your side, my princess!
**[13:23] ---**
Yup, of course!
**[13:25] ---**
Thank you for the food.
**[13:27] ---**
You're done? You've barely
touched your food.
**[13:31] ---**
I'm not hungry...
**[13:33] ---**
I'll see you later.
**[13:36] ---**
He's changed, hasn't he?
**[13:40] ---**
It feels like he's back to
how he was when we first met.
**[14:02] ---**
I think it's about time you tell us
what happened in the last eight months.
**[14:07] ---**
You heard Misuzu.
**[14:09] ---**
Only stuff related to Brenson Corp,
and nothing about you or Amou.
**[14:14] ---**
I can't be the one to tell you.
We have a code.
**[14:17] ---**
A code?!
**[14:18] ---**
Or are you gonna take a look
at my memory data?
**[14:21] ---**
That's something you could do!
**[14:24] ---**
No, we wouldn't do that.
It'll go against what we are.
**[14:28] ---**
We're not just machines
that process and store data.
**[14:33] ---**
--Right.
--Sorry...
**[14:48] ---**
All units are in position and ready to go.
**[14:50] ---**
We're waiting for your orders,
Captain Blanc.
**[14:52] ---**
All right! We have 1.5 times
more units than before!
**[14:57] ---**
Let's go wipe them out!
**[15:04] ---**
I'm picking up enemy movement.
**[15:06] ---**
They'll be within combat range
in 8 minutes and 40 seconds.
**[15:09] ---**
Got it.
**[15:10] ---**
Boss, how's the civilian evacuation going?
**[15:13] ---**
It's going smooth, but we're
surrounded by mountains.
**[15:17] ---**
It'll take them some time
for them to cross the border.
**[15:19] ---**
We need you to hold them off.
**[15:21] ---**
Roger that!
**[15:22] ---**
Judging from the distance to
the safe zone, we have three options.
**[15:28] ---**
To force the enemy to retreat,
to destroy them all,
**[15:31] ---**
or stop the unmanned units by defeating
the commander and the commander unit.
**[15:35] ---**
Right.
**[15:36] ---**
We found this video recording
from yesterday's battle.
**[15:43] ---**
This man opened fire on the enemy,
triggering the battle.
**[15:46] ---**
When he approached the commander unit,
he was shot dead.
**[15:50] ---**
We can infer that this man made some
type of deal with the enemy commander,
**[15:54] ---**
but was betrayed.
**[15:57] ---**
This is what the enemy is capable of.
**[15:59] ---**
They aren't planning on letting anyone,
including the civilians, go.
**[16:02] ---**
There's no going back.
**[16:05] ---**
They'll have manned units for sure.
Are you ready, Amou?
**[16:09] ---**
Yeah, I'll be fine.
**[16:15] ---**
Captain, we'll be entering
the combat zone soon.
**[16:19] ---**
Finally! All units, prepare to fire!
**[16:22] ---**
As soon as you see
the enemies, open fire--
**[16:31] ---**
Even from this distance...?
**[16:32] ---**
It might look the same,
but I tinkered with it a little!
**[16:36] ---**
You're set up to do some
super-long-range sniping!
**[16:38] ---**
Dammit! Heavy armor units, move forward!
**[16:44] ---**
Swap out your ammo!
**[16:46] ---**
There's only a few, but the new
armor-piercing grenades will do the trick!
**[16:54] ---**
Three heavy armor units
have been destroyed!
**[16:57] ---**
Impossible!
**[16:59] ---**
A durable shield like that has to weigh
a lot, decreasing the unit's mobility.
**[17:03] ---**
Shion!
**[17:06] ---**
Wow! It feels so light!
**[17:09] ---**
It's lighter in weight
while maintaining its durability!
**[17:12] ---**
The thruster output has increased as well,
so you can fly longer and faster!
**[17:17] ---**
My princess!
**[17:17] ---**
Right!
**[17:28] ---**
Shion's drawing the enemy's attention.
**[17:31] ---**
Let's go!
**[17:33] ---**
With the new model spec,
you can go toe-to-toe
**[17:37] ---**
with the North American military
even if you're outnumbered!
**[17:41] ---**
We've spotted three enemy AMAIMs!
We're taking more damage!
**[17:44] ---**
What should we do, Captain?!
**[17:46] ---**
Keep it together.
They just got the first strike.
**[17:49] ---**
It's only the three of them!
**[17:51] ---**
Break up our troops into three groups!
Attack them individually!
**[17:54] ---**
Our military's AI is
capable of handling this!
**[18:05] ---**
They're changing formation.
**[18:10] ---**
This attack's a bit tricky.
**[18:13] ---**
We need to get some distance between us.
**[18:18] ---**
It's started.
**[18:19] ---**
What's your read?
**[18:20] ---**
Overwhelming the enemy in numbers
is an obvious strategy.
**[18:23] ---**
However, Captain Blanc
made a wrong assumption.
**[18:27] ---**
What do you mean?
**[18:28] ---**
Until yesterday, the terrorists
were fighting without supplies.
**[18:34] ---**
But now, they have that
white original AMAIM with them.
**[18:38] ---**
He's also given them time.
**[18:40] ---**
It's safe to assume they were able to
resupply and conduct maintenance.
**[18:47] ---**
They're completely different.
**[18:49] ---**
That's true. The unit specs
are higher than yesterday's.
**[18:55] ---**
Are you saying they should've
taken them on last night?
**[18:58] ---**
Either that, or doubled their forces.
**[19:02] ---**
One more thing. I actually
respect their teamwork.
**[19:10] ---**
One unit attracts the enemy
while the second attacks it.
**[19:16] ---**
When the enemy targets the second unit,
the third strikes them down.
**[19:20] ---**
It's simple, but once you find yourself
in that loop, it's hard to get out.
**[19:25] ---**
If this situation continues,
the casualties will...
**[19:29] ---**
Yes, I feel the burden on
my shoulders getting heavier.
**[19:33] ---**
I suppose replicas
can't beat the originals.
**[19:38] ---**
Not yet, anyway.
**[19:47] ---**
Captain! If we continue taking damage,
we won't be able to maintain our troops!
**[19:51] ---**
What are your orders, Captain?!
**[19:54] ---**
This is ridiculous. How can this be?
**[19:57] ---**
Me, running from the terrorists
with my tail between my legs? No!
**[20:04] ---**
Brad Watt.
**[20:07] ---**
Captain Blanc, I suggest you put
a stop to this battle now.
**[20:11] ---**
There's no point in losing
our units unnecessarily.
**[20:13] ---**
If you stop now,
**[20:15] ---**
you can still get out of this
relatively unscathed.
**[20:17] ---**
I appreciate your advice.
**[20:21] ---**
He rides on Deputy Commander
Spears' coattail! The nerve of him!
**[20:25] ---**
Captain!
**[20:30] ---**
That's the commander unit!
**[20:31] ---**
Yeah!
**[20:40] ---**
Don't underestimate me!
**[21:08] ---**
Please retreat.
**[21:09] ---**
What?!
**[21:11] ---**
If you promise not to come after us,
we won't attack anymore.
**[21:16] ---**
Amou...
**[21:18] ---**
Are you ordering me?
**[21:20] ---**
We know you deceived
a Japanese man for your own gain.
**[21:24] ---**
Promise us that you'll never
hurt the Japanese people ever again.
**[21:28] ---**
If you do, then--
**[21:30] ---**
Why would I stop?! You all belong
on the ground, cowering at my feet!
**[21:36] ---**
I'd do it again and again!
**[21:40] ---**
You're nothing but terrorists!
**[21:59] ---**
Amou...
**[22:17] ---**

**[23:49] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
**[23:51] ---**
What do you think, Captain?
**[23:53] ---**
How did the white original AMAIM do?
**[23:55] ---**
I can sense its determination,
but there's grim atmosphere.
**[23:58] ---**
Captain, we have our new orders.
**[24:00] ---**
We're up against Major Alexei Zelenoy
from the Eurasia military, huh?
**[24:04] ---**
Bring it on. It's time
to test that unit out!

**[00:12] ---**
All right. Leave the civilians to us.
**[00:16] ---**
Thank you.
**[00:18] ---**
Anyway, how'd you outrun
the North American military?
**[00:22] ---**
Our pilots are very good.
**[00:35] ---**
U-Um, Amou!
**[00:38] ---**
Yeah?
**[00:40] ---**
Um, well, I was just...

Uh...

I'm sorry.

"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[02:35] ---**
Are we leaving?
**[02:36] ---**
Yes, we've got our orders.
**[02:39] ---**
We're going to the Eurasian border.
**[02:42] ---**
Our enemy is Commander Alexei Zelenoy.
**[02:45] ---**
I've heard of him. Rumor has it
that he's pretty good.
**[02:50] ---**
Ray, Sofia, get ready to leave.
**[02:53] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[02:55] ---**
You heard me, Charlie.
**[02:56] ---**
Are you serious? Even if we put a rush
on it, it'll only be about 80% complete.
**[03:02] ---**
I'm only asking because
I know you guys are good.
**[03:04] ---**
You know the way to an engineer's heart.
**[03:08] ---**
I'm counting on you.
**[03:09] ---**
No matter how difficult it is,
I'll tame it and make it my own.
**[03:32] ---**
My fingers are quite limber today.
**[03:36] ---**
This is going to be a good day.
**[03:38] ---**
That's good to hear.
**[03:42] ---**
What's the situation?
**[03:43] ---**
The enemy has lost 25% of their forces,
**[03:46] ---**
while we've only lost 12%.
**[03:49] ---**
Percentages are meaningless numbers.
**[03:53] ---**
Even if we lose the same number of units,
**[03:56] ---**
the percentage is halved if we
sent out twice as many units.
**[04:00] ---**
Numbers are important.
**[04:01] ---**
True. It also affects soldier's morale.
**[04:05] ---**
We've also received word that
the enemy is sending in reinforcements.
**[04:08] ---**
The NAC is so greedy.
**[04:10] ---**
They don't mind taking territory,
**[04:13] ---**
but they can't stand it
when it's taken away.
**[04:15] ---**
They're troublesome.
**[04:17] ---**
Indeed, they are.
**[04:19] ---**
What are your orders?
**[04:37] ---**
Let's teach them a lesson.
**[04:42] ---**
Yes. We'll go through Fukui
and enter Kyoto.
**[04:46] ---**
We should be there by tomorrow.
**[04:55] ---**
Shion! What's up? You look so glum!
**[05:00] ---**
Come on. Some studies show that enjoying
your meal increases nutritional--
**[05:07] ---**
Whoa! What's wrong?!
I'm sorry, was it something I said?!
**[05:19] ---**
I just don't know how I feel anymore.
**[05:25] ---**
I'm really glad Amou's back, but...
**[05:28] ---**
He seems so distant.
**[05:31] ---**
It's almost like he's avoiding us.
**[05:34] ---**
Did we do something that made him hate us?
**[05:39] ---**
I promise you, that isn't the case.
**[05:42] ---**
I want to go back to
how we were before, but...
**[05:47] ---**
Does it bother you?
**[05:50] ---**
The fact that Amou defeated
the enemy in the last battle?
**[05:56] ---**
I'd be lying if I said no,
**[05:58] ---**
but as a fighter myself, I'm also ready
for when the time comes.
**[06:04] ---**
But, when the time actually does come,
**[06:08] ---**
I'm not sure if I can be like Amou.
**[06:13] ---**
If I can be so calm like him.
**[06:19] ---**
My thoughts are all over the place,
all jumbled up.
**[06:24] ---**
I'm struggling to sort out my feelings.
**[06:26] ---**
I don't know what I should do,
or even what I *want* to do.
**[06:34] ---**
You really haven't changed, Shion.
**[06:37] ---**
Don't worry. Amou hasn't changed either.
**[06:55] ---**
You okay, Amou?
**[06:57] ---**
Yeah, I'm good.
**[07:02] ---**
If only I had a body, I'd rub your back.
**[07:06] ---**
It's fine. I'm just glad you're here.
**[07:15] ---**
Sir, I have information
from the recon unit.
**[07:17] ---**
Enemy forces have additional units
and are stationed at point D7.
**[07:22] ---**
We aren't seeing any movement.
**[07:24] ---**
Our troops will finish regrouping by 0430.
**[07:28] ---**
Is it true they're
sending us reinforcements?
**[07:30] ---**
Yes. HQ is sending us
Captain Brad Watt's troops.
**[07:37] ---**
We don't need his help.
**[07:40] ---**
Understood. You may leave.
**[07:44] ---**
Brad Watt. I know you're working with
the Development Agency behind the scenes,
**[07:49] ---**
but I won't let you have your way
on my battlefield.
**[07:52] ---**
I'll wrap everything up
before you get here.
**[08:05] ---**
Doing maintenance work on Kenbu?
**[08:07] ---**
Yeah. You, too?
**[08:09] ---**
It's become a habit since
Ms. Misuzu wasn't with us for a while.
**[08:21] ---**
You don't look so good.
**[08:23] ---**
Huh? Um, I guess?
**[08:26] ---**
Who knows? I don't pay attention
to you that closely.
**[08:33] ---**
You're the one that said it.
**[08:38] ---**
Do you enjoy doing maintenance work?
**[08:42] ---**
Yeah, it's fun.
**[08:45] ---**
Good. That's good.
**[09:25] ---**
We managed to get it ready in time.
**[09:27] ---**
Unfortunately, the leg sections
are incomplete,
**[09:30] ---**
and the output setting's not in line
with spec, so please watch out.
**[09:34] ---**
Understood. Thank you.
**[09:37] ---**
That suit can handle
rapid movement to some degree.
**[09:41] ---**
Really, Captain. Your requests
are too darn specialized!
**[09:46] ---**
Anyway, I've been up all night,
so I'm going to hit the sack.
**[09:53] ---**
I better have a good dream.
**[09:56] ---**
I know, I won't let you down.
**[10:29] ---**
Ah, a multi-wave line abreast formation.
**[10:33] ---**
And a very fast invasion speed at that.
**[10:35] ---**
Seems they don't want to
wait for their reinforcements.
**[10:38] ---**
Team Four, flank left!
**[10:41] ---**
Team Five, advance!
Join forces with Team Two!
**[10:44] ---**
We'll force our way in!
**[10:45] ---**
Ah, it seems they're playing
right into our hands.
**[10:51] ---**
Enemy commander unit confirmed!
**[10:52] ---**
All units, charge!
**[11:04] ---**
Enemy troops are falling back!
**[11:05] ---**
Go after them!
**[11:14] ---**
Their commander unit has
passed the destination point!
**[11:17] ---**
Light it up.
**[11:33] ---**
What?!
**[11:35] ---**
What's going on?!
**[11:36] ---**
The groundwater level's high around here,
and we're in a sandy area.
**[11:40] ---**
You can easily induce liquefaction
with enough stress.
**[11:44] ---**
Interesting, isn't it?
**[11:53] ---**
Wh-Why is it moving like that?!
**[11:56] ---**
We've utilized special equipment
designed for snowy mountains.
**[12:00] ---**
Our units can move with these on because
they're smaller and lighter than yours!
**[12:06] ---**
Target acquired!
Destroy the commander unit!
**[12:16] ---**
It seems luck is on his side.
**[12:22] ---**
Continue firing! Get the enemy units away
from First Lieutenant Cartland!
**[12:26] ---**
Roger that!
**[12:26] ---**
Drop off all AMAIMs!
**[12:39] ---**
There's an unidentified unit,
most likely a new model!
**[12:43] ---**
Oh?
**[12:44] ---**
All right. This is a special day;
our first battle!
**[12:48] ---**
Let's show them what you've got, Ghost!
**[13:00] ---**
I'm going to rescue
First Lieutenant Cartland! Cover me!
**[13:03] ---**
Roger that!
**[13:08] ---**
This is a walk in the park
for you, isn't it?
**[13:26] ---**
Did they reprogram their leg settings
to adapt to the wetland already?!
**[13:39] ---**
First Lieutenant! We're here to help!
**[13:42] ---**
Captain Watt...
**[13:44] ---**
Our AI has analyzed
the terrain's scan data.
**[13:48] ---**
Evacuate along this route!
**[13:50] ---**
R-Right...
**[13:52] ---**
They only sent one unit
for the rescue! Destroy it!
**[13:59] ---**
You're gonna take on all this at once?
**[14:02] ---**
You're going to be a bigger
challenge than I thought.
**[14:18] ---**
What an incredible machine...
**[14:20] ---**
First Lieutenant, this way!
**[14:23] ---**
This has gotten interesting! I'm going in.
**[14:27] ---**
Major!
**[14:28] ---**
I want to see its strength for myself!
**[14:30] ---**
I can't hold back
my excitement any longer!
**[14:50] ---**
Shion, you may not know this,
but Amou had a nightmare last night.
**[14:58] ---**
And he won't ask for help.
**[15:15] ---**
Come on! Show me what you've got!
**[15:19] ---**
What a surprise, the commander himself!
**[15:22] ---**
Deploy!
**[15:50] ---**
Nice! You're an excellent commander,
Alexei Zelenoy!
**[16:03] ---**
You work well with your
second-in-command as well!
**[16:08] ---**
He's on his own...
**[16:09] ---**
First Lieutenant Raymond!
We need to go help the captain!
**[16:11] ---**
Right.
**[16:16] ---**
Not one bullet has hit him
with that many aiming at him?!
**[16:22] ---**
However...!
**[16:23] ---**
Yes, he's still outnumbered!
**[16:38] ---**
I'll handle them! You guys go!
**[16:41] ---**
Roger that!
**[16:50] ---**
You're demanding a reflex
faster than a human's reaction time!
**[17:02] ---**
Jeez, you're fraying my nerves here!
**[17:09] ---**
He's already responding to our moves!
**[17:11] ---**
What an amazing learning speed.
**[17:13] ---**
So be it! Let's have a sword-match,
commander to commander!
**[17:18] ---**
Wait! His unit's responsiveness
is too high!
**[17:20] ---**
It's impossible to
take him on with your unit!
**[17:22] ---**
Life's worth risking when you're
fighting a powerful opponent!
**[17:44] ---**
Get ready!
**[17:46] ---**
Bring it on!
**[17:58] ---**
That's impressive,
considering your unit's specs.
**[18:01] ---**
You're strong. However!
**[18:22] ---**
Is that all you've got, Ghost?!
**[18:32] ---**
I'll rise higher!
**[18:42] ---**
Alec!
**[19:02] ---**
Captain.
**[19:03] ---**
Should we go after them?
**[19:06] ---**
No, I think I pushed it too hard.
**[19:20] ---**
Are you all right?
**[19:22] ---**
Yes. I'm surprised the North American
military created such a monster.
**[19:26] ---**
And it's still incomplete.
**[19:29] ---**
It is?!
**[19:30] ---**
Yes. He didn't come after me
when he should've.
**[19:35] ---**
At the very least, his output balance
hasn't been adjusted yet.
**[19:39] ---**
Once they're able to complete it
and go into mass production,
**[19:43] ---**
the North American military will
clearly be the dominant force.
**[19:46] ---**
Dahlia, cancel my fly-fishing weekend
at Lake Baikal.
**[19:52] ---**
There's a lot I need to think about.
**[20:04] ---**
Look, that's Yatagarasu's new HQ.
**[20:15] ---**
Everyone, welcome back.
You must be tired from your long trip.
**[20:20] ---**
Mission accomplished!
Twelve injured, zero KIA.
**[20:25] ---**
We also picked up two members.
**[20:28] ---**
I'm glad you're alive, Amou, Misuzu.
**[20:33] ---**
I'm sorry to have worried you.
**[20:34] ---**
It's fine. Your safety is
what matters most!
**[20:38] ---**
You must be tired.
You should eat up and get some rest.
**[20:44] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[20:59] ---**
Amou...
**[21:03] ---**
Tell us what happened to you
in the last eight months.
**[21:11] ---**
Nothing, really...
**[21:13] ---**
You're lying.
**[21:15] ---**
If that's true, why are you
distancing yourself from us?
**[21:18] ---**
You're acting so different
and it's plain as day! Spill it.
**[21:24] ---**
I'm telling you, it's nothing...
**[21:27] ---**
We'll be the judge of that!
**[21:30] ---**
Please.
**[21:34] ---**
Tell us, Amou!
**[21:42] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[21:43] ---**
Don't give me that!
**[21:47] ---**
Tezuka...
**[21:49] ---**
I don't want to hear that!
**[21:52] ---**
I don't want an apology!
**[21:54] ---**
You're in pain!
**[21:55] ---**
Something's eating at you!
**[21:56] ---**
What is it?! Let it out!
**[21:59] ---**
We want to listen!
**[22:13] ---**
Aren't we friends?
**[22:17] ---**
"Episode 16: Fierce Battle"
**[23:50] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
**[23:52] ---**
I'm surprised about what Tezuka said...
**[23:55] ---**
He said you're friends.
**[23:56] ---**
Yeah.
**[23:58] ---**
Are you afraid, Amou?
**[24:00] ---**
Yes, I'm scared. I'm a coward!
**[24:04] ---**
The reason you're afraid is because
they're important to you, too!

Tezuka...
**[00:33] ---**
Amou, this is the first time
Gashin has said something like this.
**[00:39] ---**
Please understand his feelings
and where he's coming from...
**[00:42] ---**
Yeah, that's right.
**[00:44] ---**
How long are you going to
worry my princess? Know your place.
**[00:49] ---**
Nayuta...
**[00:52] ---**
Amou...
**[00:56] ---**
TRYVECTA, the place where
Gai and the others were created,
**[00:59] ---**
was attacked around the same time
Brenson Corp was also attacked.
**[01:02] ---**
Yes, we heard.
Ms. Misuzu explained it to us.
**[01:07] ---**
I escaped with Ms. Misuzu
and others from TRYVECTA.
**[01:14] ---**
We headed to a backup research facility
that was built in case of emergency.
**[01:23] ---**
Looks like the North American military
expanded their territory again.
**[01:26] ---**
Rumor has it they've deployed a new AI.
**[01:29] ---**
It'd make sense...
**[01:31] ---**
Eurasia, Asia, and Oceanian territories
are being pushed back.
**[01:34] ---**
It seems many Japanese people
are getting caught in the crossfire.
**[01:40] ---**
I understand how you feel.
Our time will come.
**[01:45] ---**
Right...
**[01:46] ---**
Amou, Amou, Amou!
**[01:51] ---**
Are you free?
**[01:52] ---**
Let's play! Please!
**[01:53] ---**
Yeah, okay. What do you want to play?
**[01:56] ---**
Read us a story!
One of those Japanese stories!
**[01:58] ---**
Baseball!
**[01:59] ---**
Karate! Let's do Karate!
**[02:00] ---**
Absolutely not!
**[02:21] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:38] ---**
There were a lot of kids at the facility.
**[03:42] ---**
Staff members and their families
were all living together.
**[03:47] ---**
Probably to prevent family members
from being taken as hostages.
**[03:52] ---**
I get it.
**[03:54] ---**
The facility was big enough
for everybody to live in.
**[04:00] ---**
Since it was built for emergencies,
they had military-level defense systems,
**[04:03] ---**
and it was guarded by
Mr. Dialo and his team.
**[04:05] ---**
Oh, that private military company?
**[04:08] ---**
Right, ARES.
**[04:12] ---**
The facility was located on an isolated
island in the middle of nowhere.
**[04:16] ---**
I guess that's why it was
a little too boring for the kids.
**[04:22] ---**
Before I knew it, I was assisting
the nursery school teachers there.
**[04:29] ---**
And so, Momotaro and his friends
set out for the Demon Island.
**[04:32] ---**
All right! We're gonna go to the Demon
Island and beat up those evil demons!
**[04:37] ---**
Let's do it, woof!
**[04:38] ---**
I'm pumped, oo-oo-oo!
**[04:40] ---**
Tweet!
**[04:41] ---**
They're all Gai!
**[04:42] ---**
I bet he's gonna do the evil demons, too!
**[04:44] ---**
I bet you're right!
**[04:45] ---**
Well, how else are we gonna do this when
it's just me?! Get with the program!
**[04:49] ---**
Don't lose your temper
over what the kids say!
**[04:56] ---**
Take this, evil demons!
**[05:08] ---**
Amou.
**[05:09] ---**
Mr. Dialo.
**[05:11] ---**
Can I have a moment?
**[05:13] ---**
We've got it covered. You can go.
**[05:16] ---**
All right.
**[05:20] ---**
Are you really sure you want me
to coach AMAIM pilots?
**[05:25] ---**
Our mission is mainly security.
**[05:28] ---**
We have access to AMAIMs,
but we rarely fight in them.
**[05:33] ---**
Just think of it as giving advice
based on your experience.
**[05:38] ---**
If you say so.
**[05:40] ---**
Phew, they're such a handful!
**[05:43] ---**
Even if I cloned myself,
it still wouldn't be enough!
**[05:46] ---**
What's this? You seem
to be having a blast.
**[05:48] ---**
I can see it in your log.
**[05:50] ---**
Looks like you're all good,
based on the stats.
**[05:53] ---**
Yup, I'm good as new!
I actually feel sharper than before.
**[05:58] ---**
You might not look any different,
but I did swap a new unit in.
**[06:02] ---**
The one before was
too damaged to keep using.
**[06:06] ---**
I'm glad the memory data wasn't corrupted.
**[06:10] ---**
By the way, I have a favor to ask.
**[06:13] ---**
That German guy?
**[06:15] ---**
Yeah, I thought he seemed shady, but...
**[06:19] ---**
All right, I'll see what I can find.
**[06:22] ---**
I just gotta tread carefully
so they can't track us down.
**[06:26] ---**
Thank you.
**[06:31] ---**
You're here again?
**[06:34] ---**
I have the dossier on
Congressman Roy Walker.
**[06:38] ---**
Here you go.
**[06:43] ---**
You seem tired.
**[06:46] ---**
I hate playing politics.
**[06:49] ---**
Negotiating, backroom deals, unspoken
messages... Not my area of expertise.
**[06:54] ---**
Would you like some tips from me?
**[06:56] ---**
No, I'm fine.
I'll tell you if I ever need it.
**[07:00] ---**
As you wish.
**[07:03] ---**
Those accidents that occurred
overseas a few months ago...
**[07:07] ---**
There are rumors that the
North American military was involved,
**[07:11] ---**
but I didn't lend my troops.
**[07:14] ---**
Do you have sponsors other than me?
**[07:18] ---**
Of course not. What a baseless accusation.
**[07:24] ---**
I could put an end to
that rumor's source, if you'd like?
**[07:27] ---**
No, leave it be.
If the time comes, I'll ask.
**[07:32] ---**
Try not to make a move without my saying.
You'll put us in a bad spot.
**[07:37] ---**
I'm well aware.
**[07:54] ---**
When making sudden turns or doing a 180,
**[07:57] ---**
the pilot's experience is important,
**[07:59] ---**
but so is having the combat AI learn
geographic and geological patterns.
**[08:04] ---**
Practice makes perfect.
**[08:07] ---**
It's not something that
can happen overnight, then.
**[08:11] ---**
All right, let's do three more sets
and finish for the day.
**[08:15] ---**
After that, we'll take a break
and then go into basic training,
**[08:18] ---**
but do you really wanna join us?
**[08:20] ---**
Yes! All I did was sleep
while I was recovering,
**[08:24] ---**
so I need to get back into shape!
**[08:28] ---**
I'll be fine! I never stopped training
at Yatagarasu, either!
**[08:33] ---**
Well, give it a go, then.
**[08:43] ---**
Eight more laps! Keep up the speed!
Don't lower your arms!
**[08:52] ---**
Hey, you still alive?
**[08:59] ---**
Just barely...
**[09:01] ---**
Tough, isn't it?
**[09:03] ---**
Mr. Dialo and his team are one of
the most trusted in the industry.
**[09:08] ---**
I underestimated them...
**[09:10] ---**
Are you re-training because
you plan on going back to Yatagarasu?
**[09:14] ---**
Yes. We can't reach out to them,
but we know what's been going on.
**[09:21] ---**
They're clamping down on resistance
organizations even harder now.
**[09:25] ---**
Tezuka and everybody else
are hard at work.
**[09:28] ---**
I have to get back to them quickly.
**[09:30] ---**
Best not to rush things, Amou!
**[09:34] ---**
Misuzu has successfully gotten into
contact with Brenson Corp.
**[09:37] ---**
Apparently, they're developing
a new Kenbu over there.
**[09:41] ---**
Though, it'll take a little more time
to complete it.
**[09:44] ---**
Oh, come one! I wanted to be
the bearer of good news!
**[09:49] ---**
Once Kenbu's done, *zoom*!
We'll be on our way, and then *bam*!
**[09:52] ---**
--We'll show up,
and surprise everybody at HQ!
--Okay!
**[09:55] ---**
New and improved,
Team Gai and Amou is back!
**[09:58] ---**
Yeah!
**[10:02] ---**
Life at the facility was fun.
**[10:05] ---**
There was some tension, but I think
I got used to it as the days went by.
**[10:13] ---**
Like I said before, the facility was
located on a remote island.
**[10:18] ---**
Food, among other various things,
had to be transported.
**[10:25] ---**
That's where we were vulnerable to attack.
**[10:32] ---**
Hey, the transport team's back.
**[10:35] ---**
They're a little behind schedule.
**[10:37] ---**
All right, park the vehicle!
**[10:40] ---**
What're they doing?!
**[10:41] ---**
They're not slowing down!
**[11:11] ---**
--Gai?!
--Dammit!
**[11:13] ---**
It's forcing its way
through the security wall!
**[11:17] ---**
It's even coming after me...!
**[11:19] ---**
This speed and viciousness...
**[11:23] ---**
Could it be a malware based off of Ghost?
**[11:27] ---**
It's disabling the defense system...!
**[11:49] ---**
They're inside the building! I'm gonna
focus on getting the system back up!
**[11:53] ---**
Misuzu, you need to evacuate now!
**[11:55] ---**
Got it!
**[11:57] ---**
We know the situation, but we can't
use AMAIMs inside the facility!
**[12:00] ---**
Everyone, get your I-Packs!
**[12:02] ---**
Prioritize the safety of the people!
**[12:05] ---**
Strike team, take down the intruders!
**[12:07] ---**
I'm so scared!
**[12:09] ---**
We're okay. It's gonna be okay.
**[12:13] ---**
Don't worry.
We have Mr. Dialo on our side.
**[12:17] ---**
Here, Amou.
**[12:20] ---**
We have to protect the children.
**[12:22] ---**
Just in case, if we have to fight.
**[12:27] ---**
I understand.
**[12:29] ---**
Let's head to the server room.
It's the most secure room around here.
**[12:33] ---**
No!
**[12:35] ---**
Gai? Why not?
**[12:37] ---**
They're trying to break in!
Worst case, you'll bump into them!
**[12:41] ---**
Dammit, I can't even get it to budge!
**[12:43] ---**
No matter. We'll kill everyone
in this facility and take our time later.
**[12:47] ---**
You two, stay here.
Shoot anything that comes out.
**[12:50] ---**
Roger that.
**[12:53] ---**
We need to get moving. Let's go.
**[13:06] ---**
Let's go.
**[13:27] ---**
We've trained for this kind of situation!
**[13:29] ---**
We know the area better than them as well!
**[13:36] ---**
Dammit! There's no end to this!
**[13:39] ---**
It's taking up most of my resource
just trying to get the system back!
**[13:43] ---**
I'm analyzing the program now.
Just hang on for a while longer.
**[13:47] ---**
And to think it's just a copy!
That Ghost is really something!
**[14:00] ---**
There's a path here!
**[14:02] ---**
They've found us!
**[14:02] ---**
There's a shelter up ahead.
Let's pick up the pace.
**[14:06] ---**
Amou, they're coming!
**[14:12] ---**
Get the kids to the back! Now!
**[14:21] ---**
Are you okay?
**[14:51] ---**
Amou! Amou!
This is your chance to run, Amou!
**[14:55] ---**
Amou!
**[14:57] ---**
Amou!
**[15:20] ---**
Calm down, Amou! It's over!
**[15:25] ---**
You're safe now.
**[15:55] ---**
Mommy, I was so scared...
**[16:08] ---**
So that's what's been eating at you...
**[16:12] ---**
You did nothing wrong.
You did it to protect the kids.
**[16:18] ---**
It was a do-or-die situation.
**[16:21] ---**
I know that.
**[16:23] ---**
But the expressions on the enemies' faces
who were gunned down,
**[16:28] ---**
and the fear in the kids' eyes
when they looked at me...
**[16:31] ---**
I can't unsee them.
**[16:34] ---**
So I'm sorry...
**[16:37] ---**
Wait, Amou!
**[16:50] ---**
I see, so that's what happened.
**[16:52] ---**
Yes...
**[16:55] ---**
Was it all right for you
to share this with us?
**[16:59] ---**
Amou had already asked me to tell you.
**[17:02] ---**
He said, "Please let Mr. Udou
and Mr. Kumai know."
**[17:07] ---**
He knew it was necessary for the mission,
**[17:09] ---**
but wasn't sure if
he could bring himself to talk.
**[17:12] ---**
I understand. Thank you for sharing.
**[17:15] ---**
Of course.
**[17:17] ---**
It must've been hard on you, too.
I also know the pain of losing comrades.
**[17:24] ---**
No... Amou must be in
more pain than I am...
**[17:28] ---**
Age has nothing to do with it.
**[17:31] ---**
It's just that adults
know how to handle it better.
**[18:04] ---**
You did good at the briefing.
**[18:07] ---**
No, I'm sorry I couldn't have done better.
**[18:13] ---**
As expected, Congressman Walker
has submitted a budget cut proposal.
**[18:19] ---**
Even with the battle record of when you
fought against the Eurasian military,
**[18:24] ---**
he won't agree to the budget.
**[18:28] ---**
At this rate, they'll likely cut down
the budget for autonomous AI development.
**[18:35] ---**
I see...
**[18:38] ---**
Don't worry. It's our job
to take it from here.
**[18:43] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[18:48] ---**
I hear you've been spending some time
with peculiar company lately.
**[18:53] ---**
He's a good businessman. He's been
giving me advice on various aspects.
**[18:58] ---**
You should shake off the dust on you
sooner rather than later.
**[19:03] ---**
You're someone I can pass down
the mantle to one day, Brad.
**[19:08] ---**
Thank you, Father.
**[19:15] ---**
You're being very quiet, Major.
It's creeping me out.
**[19:21] ---**
My brain's gone into hibernation.
**[19:25] ---**
I'm more useless than
a cat in winter right now.
**[19:29] ---**
True, a sleeping cat is at least
heartwarming to see.
**[19:34] ---**
There's a saying in Japan,
"sleep and wait for good news."
**[19:38] ---**
But sleeping too much is boring.
**[19:42] ---**
I'm hoping for some action soon.
**[19:46] ---**
It seems you've got it.
**[19:49] ---**
You've been promoted,
Lieutenant Colonel Alexei Zelenoy.
**[19:53] ---**
They've also officially approved
the proposal you've submitted.
**[19:57] ---**
You've been appointed as
the commander in charge.
**[20:02] ---**
Let the party begin.
**[20:05] ---**
Second Lieutenant Ho Guang and
the rest of you four have been released.
**[20:10] ---**
Your sentences were reduced.
You've all been given special orders.
**[20:15] ---**
Report to the military HQ immediately.
**[20:26] ---**
Second Lieutenant Oliver Martin!
**[20:29] ---**
What is it?
**[20:30] ---**
This is from HQ. Please confirm.
**[20:33] ---**
All right.
**[20:35] ---**
What is it, Captain?
There's no reason to summon me here.
**[20:46] ---**
Nothing you say will make me
withdraw the budget cut proposal.
**[20:51] ---**
There's something I'd like you to see,
Congressman Walker.
**[21:01] ---**
Are you threatening me?
**[21:04] ---**
Of course not. It's just that...
**[21:07] ---**
...news media and self-righteous reporters
sus out the truth so quickly.
**[21:13] ---**
I figured we could build
a good working relationship.
**[21:21] ---**
I believe Captain Watt is negotiating with
Congressman Walker as we speak.
**[21:26] ---**
Honestly, I'm not sure
how he can be so passionate.
**[21:31] ---**
I cannot fathom why he's
so invested in manned units.
**[21:36] ---**
By the way, he was fishing for answers.
**[21:40] ---**
He asked if I had another sponsor
for the incidents overseas.
**[21:46] ---**
How would you like me to handle this?
**[21:48] ---**
If push comes to shove,
we'll have to cut him loose.
**[21:53] ---**
Do I have your approval,
Deputy Commander Spears?
**[21:57] ---**
Yes, that's fine.
**[22:00] ---**
It's for the good of our army
and the confederation.
**[22:05] ---**
Well, what a surprise.
**[22:08] ---**
I never would've thought
you'd reach out to me.
**[22:11] ---**
You must be in a very tight spot, Yusei.

How are Gashin and the others doing?
**[23:55] ---**
It's hard to say...
**[23:58] ---**
Are we really moving onto

The war, the world, mercilessly goes on

**[00:02] ---**
Long time no see, Mr. Suenaga!
How have you been?
**[00:05] ---**
Um, yeah, I'm fine...
**[00:08] ---**
I haven't seen you
in a while either, Gashin.
**[00:10] ---**
Yeah.
**[00:11] ---**
He came to us for help,
so I asked you guys to gather here.
**[00:16] ---**
Yuusei, can you explain what's going on?
**[00:18] ---**
Certainly. Through my own network,
a group came to me for help.
**[00:24] ---**
What kind of help?
**[00:26] ---**
Not too far from
the North American border,
**[00:28] ---**
in the mountains of
Eurasian territory,
**[00:30] ---**
is a sanctuary for Japanese people
built by a pro-Japanese soldier.
**[00:34] ---**
A sanctuary...
**[00:35] ---**
A secret one, of course.
**[00:38] ---**
It was never a problem because of
the distance from the border.
**[00:41] ---**
However, after months of
North American military invasion,
**[00:46] ---**
the area has recently
become part of the frontline.
**[00:49] ---**
Since the Eurasian military deemed
the area to have little strategic value,
**[00:54] ---**
they aren't keen on
sending reinforcements.
**[00:56] ---**
So far, the pro-Japanese soldiers
stationed there are holding their own,
**[01:00] ---**
but they're at their limit...
**[01:03] ---**
Our intel says the North American military
is planning another invasion soon.
**[01:07] ---**
If the sanctuary collapses,
many Japanese people will suffer.
**[01:12] ---**
I know I have no right
asking you this...
**[01:16] ---**
but I'd like you to
help them. Please.
**[01:20] ---**
Let's do it!
**[01:22] ---**
I see no reason not to!
**[01:24] ---**
What about you, Amou?
**[01:26] ---**
I'm with everyone else.
**[01:34] ---**
All right, we'll help.
**[01:37] ---**
Thank you so much.
**[02:01] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:18] ---**
I haven't seen or talked to Yuu
since the last time he came to HQ.
**[03:25] ---**
But you probably guessed as much, right?
**[03:29] ---**
Yeah, sort of. I suspected
something had happened.
**[03:34] ---**
Yuu was an Asian military spy.
**[03:37] ---**
What?
**[03:37] ---**
To protect his autonomous city.
**[03:39] ---**
He was threatened to find
information about Yatagarasu's HQ.
**[03:45] ---**
I gave Yuu fake information about the new
HQ's location and when we were moving.
**[03:51] ---**
I also told him the information's fake.
**[03:54] ---**
What? But, then...
**[03:56] ---**
Yuu could've told the Asian military
the information was fake.
**[04:02] ---**
If he did, they'd have
set up patrols all over,
**[04:05] ---**
making it that much more difficult
for us to move to our new HQ.
**[04:09] ---**
But he didn't do that.
**[04:12] ---**
He took the blame to protect Yatagarasu.
That's what I believe, anyway.
**[04:18] ---**
So what about this time around?
**[04:21] ---**
Udou came to me prior to this,
and I verified his story.
**[04:25] ---**
The existence of
a sanctuary was well-hidden,
**[04:28] ---**
but I have enough data
to back up what Yuusei said.
**[04:32] ---**
He wasn't lying.
**[04:35] ---**
Yuu knew the risks of being suspected
himself, but he came to us for help.
**[04:40] ---**
Even without Kei's verification,
I was going to put my trust in him.
**[04:46] ---**
Is that right?
**[04:48] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:48] ---**
Then why explain all this to us now?
**[05:02] ---**
I just wanted you guys to know.
**[05:06] ---**
I see...
**[05:16] ---**
We're arriving at our destination soon.
**[05:18] ---**
Copy that.
**[05:19] ---**
What about the AMAIMs?
**[05:20] ---**
The usual. They're on auto-pilot,
taking a route to avoid detection.
**[05:25] ---**
They're on schedule.
**[05:28] ---**
I think I see it. Is that the place?
**[05:40] ---**
We're from Kumakura Farms.
**[05:42] ---**
We've been expecting you. Please, come in.
**[05:52] ---**
Welcome. We're glad you're here.
**[05:54] ---**
I'm Takayanagi Anna.
I'll be your guide today.
**[05:57] ---**
Huh? Anna?
**[06:00] ---**
It's been forever, Shion.
**[06:02] ---**
Wow!
**[06:05] ---**
What are you doing here?!
**[06:07] ---**
My family lives around here.
**[06:09] ---**
Who's she?
**[06:10] ---**
A member of Arahabaki.
**[06:13] ---**
She exchanged numbers with my princess.
**[06:16] ---**
Are these the members
from Yatagarasu, Anna?
**[06:19] ---**
Hey, Brother.
**[06:21] ---**
Huh?
**[06:22] ---**
Nice to meet you. I'm Cyril Zhirkov,
the chairman of this place.
**[06:26] ---**
I-I'm Kumai from Yatagarasu.
**[06:29] ---**
He's your brother?
**[06:30] ---**
Yup, my brother-in-law.
**[06:33] ---**
And that's my big sister.
**[06:37] ---**
I'm Takayanagi Yuuna.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
**[06:45] ---**
So your baby's due soon.
**[06:48] ---**
Are you okay to be walking?
**[06:50] ---**
It feels heavy, but I've been told
to move around.
**[06:54] ---**
The sanctuary is disguised as
a single corporate entity.
**[06:58] ---**
We make a profit by running ranches
and manufacturing processed goods.
**[07:03] ---**
Officially, we provide
the Japanese people live-in jobs here.
**[07:06] ---**
The military has given us permission
to build residential areas.
**[07:09] ---**
That's why it's a city for workers.
**[07:12] ---**
Correct.
**[07:13] ---**
It's similar to Yuusei's city,
but a little different.
**[07:17] ---**
Yeah.
**[07:18] ---**
I like Japanese people.
**[07:20] ---**
Their tradition and culture,
the people, everything.
**[07:26] ---**
I want to protect them.
**[07:28] ---**
But if we simply call it a sanctuary,
**[07:31] ---**
military and federal government
will protest and shut us down.
**[07:36] ---**
That's why they mustn't know.
**[07:39] ---**
Only a handful of my men
who share my belief know the truth.
**[07:45] ---**
As my private property, the sanctuary's
free from military interference.
**[07:50] ---**
One day, when peace is restored,
I'd like to relinquish ownership,
**[07:54] ---**
and give it back to the people of Japan.
**[07:58] ---**
Your husband's a wonderful person.
**[08:01] ---**
Thank you.
**[08:03] ---**
Various economic blocs
consider Japan to be a bridgehead.
**[08:07] ---**
The North American military
wants to advance into the far east.
**[08:11] ---**
The Federation of Great Eurasia
wants to advance southward.
**[08:13] ---**
The Asian Free Trade Entente
needs a shield in the Pacific area.
**[08:16] ---**
The Confederation of Oceania
wants to advance northward.
**[08:20] ---**
People in Europe believe
Japan's a dead country,
**[08:24] ---**
so it is rarely talked about.
**[08:27] ---**
I'm truly sorry.
**[08:29] ---**
Please, it isn't your fault.
**[08:33] ---**
I heard there's an army
protecting this area?
**[08:35] ---**
Just one squadron that I lead.
**[08:38] ---**
I pilot the commander unit.
**[08:41] ---**
HQ sends supplies such as ammo
and the like, but not reinforcements...
**[08:45] ---**
It's just like Yuusei said.
**[08:47] ---**
Yeah.
**[08:48] ---**
How do you know the North American
military is planning on invading again?
**[08:52] ---**
Eurasian HQ got the wind of it.
**[08:55] ---**
My men and I have been
advised to evacuate.
**[08:58] ---**
Which means we need to
hit the North American military hard.
**[09:03] ---**
We really need your help. Please.
**[09:09] ---**
All right. We'll do everything we can.
**[09:13] ---**
Thank you!
**[09:16] ---**
We're in your debt!
**[09:23] ---**
We'll now take a vote
on the military budget.
**[09:28] ---**
All in favor, please raise your hands.
**[09:40] ---**
I'm shocked to see Roy Walker
change his vote in favor of it.
**[09:46] ---**
I wonder what changed his mind.
**[09:49] ---**
I don't know, but perhaps he understands
the significance of this war.
**[09:55] ---**
Whatever the reason,
the budget's approved.
**[09:58] ---**
You'll be even busier, Brad.
**[10:02] ---**
I understand.
**[10:04] ---**
I'm counting on you.
**[10:06] ---**
So we got the budget, Charlie.
**[10:08] ---**
I'm glad to hear that, but could you
do something about those guys?
**[10:13] ---**
The fresh troops from the Second Unit?
**[10:15] ---**
They're supposedly
a new experimental unit or whatever,
**[10:19] ---**
but they're asking for a copy of Ghost.
**[10:22] ---**
You sure you're okay with this?
**[10:24] ---**
We can't ignore a request
from an allied nation.
**[10:27] ---**
Besides, we're only providing
them the base program,
**[10:30] ---**
not the learning and decision-making
engine at its core. It'll be fine.
**[10:35] ---**
It's probably Zack Taylor's doing.
**[10:41] ---**
You know him?
**[10:43] ---**
Ever since we were students.
**[10:44] ---**
He's awful. The type of person
you'd never want to be friends with.
**[10:54] ---**
--Yuuna!
--Sis!
**[10:55] ---**
I think I'm having contractions...
**[10:58] ---**
All right, let's get you to the hospital.
**[11:00] ---**
Don't worry, I'll be right by your side.
**[11:03] ---**
You have important work to do.
Don't worry about me.
**[11:08] ---**
What? But...
**[11:09] ---**
I'll go with her.
**[11:15] ---**
All right, thank you.
**[11:21] ---**
Men are useless at times like this.
**[11:25] ---**
Mr. Cyril...
**[11:30] ---**
I have this dream...
**[11:33] ---**
When peace is restored,
**[11:35] ---**
I want to travel all over Japan
with my wife and child.
**[11:40] ---**
Visit different places, see various
sceneries, make tons of memories...
**[11:47] ---**
I hope for a day when we can travel
like that, for my dream to come true.
**[11:54] ---**
We hope your dream comes true, too.
**[12:00] ---**
Thank you.
**[12:05] ---**
That sound is from the North American
military transport unit.
**[12:08] ---**
They must think the air defense is light.
How bold of them.
**[12:12] ---**
Or they're trying to rile us up?
**[12:14] ---**
There's a North American
military outpost that way.
**[12:18] ---**
And not just a unit or two.
**[12:20] ---**
They may even try to invade this area
as early as tomorrow, Amou.
**[12:23] ---**
Yeah.
**[12:30] ---**
What a spectacular view.
This is great! My very own toys.
**[12:35] ---**
What are you going to do
with two platoons?
**[12:38] ---**
We may be in the middle of nowhere,
but it's still the frontline!
**[12:41] ---**
We don't have soldiers to spare!
**[12:43] ---**
Don't worry,
I'll pilot the commander unit.
**[12:47] ---**
Don't be ridiculous! You're an amateur.
The squads work together--
**[12:51] ---**
You're the one who's clueless about
its features, improvement, behavior...
**[12:56] ---**
I can operate this unit and
fight better than anybody here.
**[13:00] ---**
Just think of me as a flying column.
**[13:04] ---**
Didn't HQ tell you to
let me do as I please?
**[13:10] ---**
Tsk.
**[13:10] ---**
Ah, this is going to be so great.
**[13:13] ---**
It'll be the perfect testing ground
for my first battle.
**[13:17] ---**
I just can't wait to play.
**[13:25] ---**
I see them, the enemy squads.
**[13:28] ---**
We've got eyes on them, too.
**[13:29] ---**
Estimated time of engagement
is 12 minutes 20 seconds.
**[13:33] ---**
Good. Return to base, Masaki. We'll use
the security cameras from here on out.
**[13:37] ---**
Roger that.
**[13:39] ---**
So that's our plan.
**[13:41] ---**
The North American military
can't get wind of us fighting together.
**[13:45] ---**
If they get any footage of it,
it'll become a huge problem.
**[13:48] ---**
That's why we're going to
fight against each other.
**[13:51] ---**
Right. We need to sell it to
the North American military.
**[13:55] ---**
We'll make sure it's believable!
**[13:57] ---**
We'll send you our behavior patterns.
**[13:59] ---**
You can keep the hits to a minimum
while making it look real.
**[14:04] ---**
Thank you.
**[14:07] ---**
Sis!
**[14:08] ---**
I've got word that Yuuna's
in the delivery room now.
**[14:11] ---**
We can't let the enemies get through.
**[14:15] ---**
Give it your all, Amou!
**[14:17] ---**
Right!
**[14:18] ---**
The new 40mm arm cannon's loaded
with 20 armor-piercing shells.
**[14:25] ---**
It's powerful, but keep your eyes
on the remaining ammo.
**[14:28] ---**
All right.
**[14:42] ---**
All shots hit their mark.
Units destroyed as planned!
**[14:45] ---**
Let's move. Boss!
**[14:47] ---**
Open fire!
**[14:51] ---**
They're using the old Jo Hound models
they stole from us! Damn terrorists!
**[14:55] ---**
Eurasian military units at one o'clock!
**[14:59] ---**
The terrorists and
the Eurasian military are fighting...
**[15:01] ---**
Great! We can catch the terrorists
in a pincer movement.
**[15:05] ---**
Only a few Eurasian military units are
out there! Let's take both of them down!
**[15:10] ---**
They took the bait.
We'll attack from behind as planned!
**[15:14] ---**
--Right!
--Amou, to your right!
**[15:16] ---**
Huh?
**[15:20] ---**
Ah!
**[15:24] ---**
Be careful, Amou!
Something's up with these units!
**[15:40] ---**
After the first attack,
I knew the original AMAIM was here.
**[15:45] ---**
Your go-to tactic's to break into three
for an ambush. Just as I suspected...
**[15:58] ---**
These units...
**[16:02] ---**
Attack pattern analysis complete!
Match rate is 91.3%!
**[16:07] ---**
You...!
**[16:14] ---**
My princess!
**[16:15] ---**
Thanks, Nayuta.
**[16:17] ---**
My princess, that black unit has
Ghost's AI engine installed!
**[16:22] ---**
What?!
**[16:24] ---**
A little birdie told me you struggled to
fight against one Ghost on Oki Island.
**[16:29] ---**
I have six. I wonder...?
Will you be able to win?
**[16:34] ---**
I hope you'll serve as
good test subjects, at the least.
**[16:56] ---**
Good, their balance is broken!
Crush them at once!
**[17:00] ---**
This is bad, Boss! We can't
keep up the fake fight anymore!
**[17:06] ---**
How close are you, Gashin?!
**[17:09] ---**
I know!
**[17:12] ---**
I know, but... Dammit!
**[17:19] ---**
That's some attack!
**[17:30] ---**
Its viciousness is
certainly that of Ghost's!
**[17:40] ---**
Please fall back, Mr. Kumai, Mr. Masaki!
**[17:44] ---**
What do you mean?!
**[17:45] ---**
We can't hold the frontline much longer.
**[17:47] ---**
If we keep this up, we'll all be killed!
I don't want that!
**[17:51] ---**
So, at the very least,
please save yourselves!
**[17:54] ---**
Don't be stupid!
**[17:55] ---**
That's not how...
**[17:56] ---**
...we work!
**[17:58] ---**
You have a baby who's
waiting for your safe return!
**[18:08] ---**
Sis...
**[18:09] ---**
Come, now. Please try to be
good test subjects!
**[18:20] ---**
Huh?
**[18:24] ---**
It looks like you've got this wrong.
**[18:26] ---**
The true threat of Ghost is its
learning speed and high adaptability,
**[18:31] ---**
which this black unit lacks.
**[18:34] ---**
Not to mention the significant performance
difference between the units!
**[18:37] ---**
Just slapping the AI on any unit
doesn't make it Ghost!
**[18:40] ---**
Plus, we've learned these units'
attack pattern and capabilities!
**[18:44] ---**
Let's show them we're in
a completely different league!
**[18:54] ---**
Too much viciousness
just leads to simplicity.
**[18:57] ---**
What?!
**[19:18] ---**
It's okay! Shion, it's okay.
**[19:21] ---**
Amou...
**[19:24] ---**
Please fall back. We won't continue
attacking if you do.
**[19:38] ---**
It's not over.
**[19:40] ---**
We need to go help Boss and the others.
**[19:42] ---**
Roger that!
**[19:48] ---**
What happened to
the North American military?
**[19:49] ---**
Oh, right... We successfully
drove them back.
**[19:52] ---**
How's Yuuna and the baby?
**[19:53] ---**
It's a girl. They're both doing good.
**[19:57] ---**
She's so cute and soft!
**[20:02] ---**
She's smiling...
**[20:03] ---**
Don't be so shy, Amou.
**[20:06] ---**
Huh? But...
**[20:07] ---**
J-Just be gentle...
**[20:09] ---**
Um, right! Of course.
**[20:25] ---**
She grabbed your finger.
**[20:27] ---**
She's so tiny.
**[20:28] ---**
Well, she's a newborn.
**[20:30] ---**
But she's so warm,
and her hands are perfect...
**[20:37] ---**
You should be proud, Amou.
**[20:39] ---**
Huh?
**[20:40] ---**
You saved this life.
**[20:52] ---**
Amou?
**[20:54] ---**
Sorry, it's nothing.
**[20:59] ---**
Sorry...
**[21:07] ---**
They got away?
**[21:09] ---**
I'm sorry, sir.
**[21:10] ---**
The terrorists disappeared when
the North American military withdrew.
**[21:15] ---**
Our troops were too damaged
to pursue them.
**[21:18] ---**
It's fine. We'll send more unmanned units.
**[21:21] ---**
We've prepared two
additional platoons as well.
**[21:24] ---**
Thank you.
**[21:25] ---**
There's been a lot of
activity at HQ recently.
**[21:28] ---**
I'm counting on you to defend the area.
**[21:30] ---**
Understood, sir.
**[21:44] ---**
Sorry, you guys.
**[21:49] ---**
I'm sorry to have worried you so much.
**[21:57] ---**
Thanks.
**[22:00] ---**
Don't mention it.
**[22:01] ---**
He's right. We're friends,
after all. Right?
**[22:08] ---**
Yeah.
**[22:17] ---**
"Episode 18: The Sanctuary"
**[23:50] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
**[23:51] ---**
I'm so glad you're back
to your old self, Amou!
**[23:54] ---**
Seriously, I'm really sorry
about all that.
**[23:57] ---**
It's fine.
**[23:59] ---**
But our next special mission
won't be a walk in the park.
**[24:02] ---**
Yeah, it's gonna be tough.
**[24:04] ---**
But we'll work together, the three of us,
and make it a success!

**[00:04] ---**
Did you turn off your cell phones?
**[00:06] ---**
--Yup.
--And the PCs?
**[00:08] ---**
All networks have been cut off.
**[00:10] ---**
Cameras?
**[00:11] ---**
We used the blind spots to get here.
**[00:13] ---**
All right, let's go in.
**[00:23] ---**
We're on to them now!
**[00:41] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[01:59] ---**
She's so adorable!
**[02:01] ---**
I can't stop smiling!
**[02:03] ---**
Why are all babies so cute?
**[02:07] ---**
I can't believe this
came out of a human body...
**[02:10] ---**
Seven pounds and six ounces,
perfectly healthy.
**[02:14] ---**
Talk about the mystery of life.
**[02:17] ---**
You know, you guys were once babies, too.
**[02:22] ---**
We were?
**[02:23] ---**
Uh-huh. Each one of you
had a different caretaker.
**[02:28] ---**
Gai, your caretaker loved robot stuff,
**[02:32] ---**
and incorporated her favorite show
into your training materials.
**[02:37] ---**
Bardiche Breaker!
**[02:39] ---**
Ohhh...
**[02:41] ---**
What do you mean, "ohhh"?!
**[02:42] ---**
Oh, oh! What about me?!
**[02:44] ---**
Did they show me a brilliant
genius hacker movie?!
**[02:47] ---**
No, you watched a lot of
biographical and historical films.
**[02:51] ---**
So that's where I got my traditional
and elegant gentleman-like personality.
**[02:59] ---**
You're so positive.
**[03:01] ---**
Kei, your caretaker was
a dependable mother,
**[03:05] ---**
so you might've taken on her traits.
**[03:06] ---**
Oh, that makes sense, too!
**[03:09] ---**
It's hard to notice these things yourself.
**[03:12] ---**
Actually, it's almost the anniversary of
when your base program was completed.
**[03:16] ---**
Base program?
**[03:18] ---**
Kinda like the seed of an AI.
**[03:20] ---**
We designed Gai, Kei,
and Nayuta based on it.
**[03:23] ---**
Yeah?
**[03:30] ---**
I see, this sounds interesting.
Give it a try, then.
**[03:36] ---**
Thank you so much!
**[03:37] ---**
I'll tell Kumai and the others
to help you as well,
**[03:42] ---**
and that this is a special
top-secret mission!
**[03:47] ---**
We got a special mission.
**[03:50] ---**
It's top-secret,
so it must be extremely difficult.
**[03:55] ---**
Are you all ready for this?
**[03:58] ---**
We left all our digital devices behind.
**[04:00] ---**
The electromagnetic blockers
are set up as well.
**[04:03] ---**
What about the security system?
**[04:05] ---**
The surveillance cameras are active,
but the access code has been changed.
**[04:09] ---**
We've also intentionally
created blind spots.
**[04:12] ---**
Please use those areas when traveling.
**[04:14] ---**
All right, let's get this meeting started.
**[04:18] ---**
The execution date is June 2nd.
I'd like to move forward with Amou's plan.
**[04:23] ---**
I like this idea!
It's a lot of work, but still...
**[04:28] ---**
Sorry about that.
**[04:29] ---**
We'll divide the team up
into three like we always do.
**[04:32] ---**
Maki, Muramatsu, and Amou will
handle the programming.
**[04:35] ---**
Masaki and Gashin, you'll--
**[04:36] ---**
Oh! Is this a strategy meeting?
**[04:39] ---**
Huh?!
**[04:40] ---**
You left your cell, my princess.
**[04:41] ---**
You'd be lost without me,
Angelo, by your side.
**[04:45] ---**
--Huh? What?
--Count us in for this meeting.
**[04:48] ---**
Wait... Uhh...
**[04:52] ---**
Shoot, I forgot to turn it off...
**[04:54] ---**
Break it!
**[04:55] ---**
Please don't!
**[04:56] ---**
Take him out!
**[04:57] ---**
Eek! Stop it!
**[04:59] ---**
No! Don't touch me there!
**[05:07] ---**
Looks like the secret's still safe.
**[05:09] ---**
Hmm, that was kinda suspicious.
**[05:11] ---**
I agree.
**[05:13] ---**
I can't access the surveillance system.
Seems they changed the code.
**[05:17] ---**
They left their cell phones
in their rooms, too.
**[05:21] ---**
They're up to something!
**[05:24] ---**
Bring it on! They won't be able to
fool us in a million years!
**[05:29] ---**
We'll do whatever it takes
to solve this mystery!
**[05:33] ---**
Let's investigate!
**[05:39] ---**
Nope, this won't work.
**[05:41] ---**
This is a bit old, too.
**[05:44] ---**
Nothing's really catching my eye...
**[05:46] ---**
Whatcha doing?
**[05:47] ---**
Well, the MR--
**[05:49] ---**
MR?
**[05:50] ---**
Ah!
**[05:52] ---**
What about the MR?
**[05:55] ---**
Wh-What are you talking about?
**[05:58] ---**
Come on, don't try and hide it.
You're a terrible liar.
**[06:02] ---**
I even know you have a crush on Misuzu.
**[06:03] ---**
Huh?!
**[06:04] ---**
Don't worry, I get it!
**[06:06] ---**
But do you really want to
hide your feelings forever?
**[06:09] ---**
No, of course not.
**[06:12] ---**
Tell you what, I'll teach you
how to get Misuzu to like you.
**[06:19] ---**
What?!
**[06:20] ---**
If you tell me what you're up to, that is.
**[06:27] ---**
Don't you wanna know?
**[06:29] ---**
Just tell me. Tell me everything.
**[06:31] ---**
--Spill it!
--Come on, be a man!
**[06:33] ---**
Are you really happy
with the way things are?
**[06:38] ---**
"Don't forget your belongings!!"
**[06:44] ---**
Wouldn't it be great if someone
could help with your laundry?
**[06:49] ---**
Kei?!
**[06:50] ---**
Waking up to the smell of miso soup,
**[06:52] ---**
coming home to a house with the lights
already on, to a home-cooked meal.
**[06:58] ---**
A sense of peace that you can't get if
you're single, the perfect married life.
**[07:03] ---**
I-I don't know anything about that,
but sure! Anyway, talk to you later!
**[07:07] ---**
Wait! Don't you want to
reassure you parents back home?
**[07:11] ---**
They've been begging you to have kids.
**[07:14] ---**
How do you know that?
**[07:16] ---**
I can help you if you'd like.
I can find a perfect partner for you.
**[07:21] ---**
It'll be so easy in
the hands of us, I-LeS.
**[07:34] ---**
Operating voltage, check.
**[07:37] ---**
All actuators, check.
**[07:40] ---**
Kumai! I've been looking for you.
**[07:43] ---**
I'm not talking.
**[07:45] ---**
"I'm not talking," huh?
So, you *are* hiding something.
**[07:49] ---**
Like I said, I'm not talking.
**[07:52] ---**
You're a very loyal man.
**[07:54] ---**
I get it. I totally get the hardships
you're going through.
**[07:57] ---**
You sacrificed your family life
for the restoration of Japan.
**[08:01] ---**
Divorced your wife and left your
only daughter before joining Yatagarasu.
**[08:07] ---**
But that was to protect them.
**[08:10] ---**
And you haven't talked to them since.
That must be so hard...
**[08:15] ---**
But with my help, you could
talk to them over a secure line...
**[08:20] ---**
What?!
**[08:21] ---**
Don't worry, it'll be our secret!
**[08:24] ---**
As long as you share yours...
**[08:29] ---**
Don't underestimate me!
Sometimes, a man has to endure pain!
**[08:34] ---**
Dammit!
**[08:36] ---**
No one spilled the beans...
**[08:38] ---**
They're harder to crack than expected.
**[08:40] ---**
But there are other ways to do this.
**[08:43] ---**
They're bound to leave clues
when they make a move.
**[08:49] ---**
Did you hear? Gai and the others
were snooping around.
**[08:52] ---**
Yeah, they told me!
**[08:54] ---**
It sounds like they're
digging around for information.
**[08:57] ---**
Do you think they're listening in
on this conversation, too?
**[08:59] ---**
The signal blocker device is on,
so we should be fine.
**[09:02] ---**
But let's keep our guards up.
**[09:14] ---**
"Maplen's Hardware Store"
**[09:17] ---**
It's not shopping day today.
**[09:20] ---**
The store's different than
their usual place, too.
**[09:22] ---**
It seems they're open to Japanese
customers, but it's out of their way.
**[09:27] ---**
They might as well tell us
they're up to something.
**[09:40] ---**
Huh?
**[09:41] ---**
What was that?!
**[09:45] ---**
These paintballs take
30 minutes to vaporize.
**[09:49] ---**
Ah! What the--
**[09:51] ---**
Dammit, this is Dialo's doing!
**[09:54] ---**
I never expected them to go this far.
**[09:55] ---**
Don't they understand that
the more they hide, the harder we'll try?
**[10:02] ---**
There are other ways
to find out the truth...
**[10:13] ---**
We're on to them now!
**[10:16] ---**
This camera originally came
installed in this facility.
**[10:20] ---**
It isn't a part of Yatagarasu's system.
We're lucky it's still active!
**[10:25] ---**
Nice work.
**[10:26] ---**
I've accessed the register
at the store they used.
**[10:30] ---**
Items purchased were hard drives,
high-capacity memory, and...
**[10:33] ---**
Interior decor?
**[10:35] ---**
--Huh?
--Are they planning on building a rocket?
**[10:37] ---**
They wouldn't need decor for that.
**[10:39] ---**
Those are probably to throw us off.
**[10:41] ---**
Wait! Could they be making a new AI?!
**[10:45] ---**
Huh?! They wouldn't!
**[10:47] ---**
No, it's possible! That explains why
they've kept us in the dark...
**[10:53] ---**
So what, they don't need us anymore...?
**[10:57] ---**
This can't be... My princess!
**[11:01] ---**
We need confirmation...
We're going undercover!
**[11:20] ---**
No one's around. Over.
**[11:22] ---**
Keep going. Over.
**[11:25] ---**
And you're really sure I'd be able to
win Ms. Misuzu's heart?
**[11:28] ---**
You'll teach me how to make her
fall head over heels for me?
**[11:31] ---**
Yeah, a gentleman keeps his word.
**[11:34] ---**
I'm only giving you a peek inside, okay?
I won't tell you about the mission!
**[11:38] ---**
That's fine. We won't get you in trouble.
**[11:42] ---**
All right!
**[11:50] ---**
--Huh?!
--Get him!
**[11:53] ---**
--Ow, oww!
--You did this to yourself!
**[11:56] ---**
You traitor! This is why you're
never popular with the ladies!
**[11:58] ---**
You're one to talk!
**[12:01] ---**
Chief!
**[12:04] ---**
Dammit, we picked
the wrong person for the job!
**[12:06] ---**
I told you picking him was a mistake!
**[12:08] ---**
Hey, isn't that a little harsh...?
**[12:10] ---**
Give it up! We *will* carry out
this special mission.
**[12:18] ---**
Man, they really mean business!
**[12:21] ---**
We can't give up!
There must be another way!
**[12:24] ---**
No, the only option is to
confront them head-on.
**[12:28] ---**
I'm a little afraid to find out the truth,
**[12:31] ---**
but I'd rather hear it from Gashin.
**[12:44] ---**
Just a while longer...
A while longer and this'll be over...
**[12:48] ---**
We just need to keep it
a secret until then...!
**[12:58] ---**
Oh, Shion! Why are you
toying with my emotions?
**[13:03] ---**
Nayuta?
**[13:04] ---**
Day or night, all I think about is you.
**[13:08] ---**
I'm flooded with emotions
and I feel like I'm going mad...
**[13:12] ---**
Yet, you leave me behind and disappear!
**[13:16] ---**
Oh, tell me, who has stolen your heart?
**[13:21] ---**
Um...
**[13:23] ---**
Come on, tell me!
True love must exist between us!
**[13:29] ---**
I think you're tired.
You should get some sleep.
**[13:34] ---**
Um... R-Right...
**[13:43] ---**
Let me help.
**[13:46] ---**
No, I'm almost done.
**[13:48] ---**
I see.
**[13:50] ---**
Yeah.
**[13:51] ---**
Gashin, you look exhausted.
**[13:55] ---**
It's nothing. I'm fine.
**[13:58] ---**
Does it have anything to do with whatever
you're doing in the audiovisual room?
**[14:01] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[14:03] ---**
There's no need to hide it.
We have an idea of what's going on.
**[14:06] ---**
That's why I'm asking you, begging you...
**[14:10] ---**
I want to hear it from you,
and not from anybody else!
**[14:16] ---**
There's nothing to talk about! Really!
**[14:21] ---**
Even after all this,
you still won't tell me...
**[14:35] ---**
Is that tablet offline, too?
**[14:38] ---**
We know you guys are
up to something! Just tell us!
**[14:42] ---**
H-Huh?!
**[14:43] ---**
What's this about?
**[14:44] ---**
Don't play dumb! We know something's up!
**[14:47] ---**
Come on, what are you saying?
**[14:49] ---**
So this is something you
absolutely want to keep hidden?
**[14:53] ---**
Does our bond mean nothing?!
**[14:55] ---**
We've stuck together like brother in arms,
but now you're tossing me aside?!
**[15:00] ---**
That's not true! I couldn't have
gotten this far without you!
**[15:08] ---**
Even in TRYVECTA,
**[15:11] ---**
if you weren't there,
I wouldn't have come back to Japan.
**[15:15] ---**
Amou... Then tell me what you're hiding!
**[15:20] ---**
I told you, it's nothing!
**[15:24] ---**
Amou!
**[15:25] ---**
Everything will all make sense tomorrow.
Just one more day...
**[15:48] ---**
"The wind in Yakumo"...
**[15:49] ---**
..."smells of bamboo lily."
**[15:56] ---**
We barely managed it, but it's done!
We're ready when you are! I'm exhausted!
**[16:03] ---**
Gai!
**[16:05] ---**
Hey, Gai?
**[16:09] ---**
Gai's gone!
**[16:10] ---**
So's Kei!
**[16:11] ---**
Oh, Shion.
**[16:13] ---**
Don't tell me Nayuta's gone, too?
**[16:14] ---**
Yeah, I can't find him anywhere.
**[16:16] ---**
Hmm? No, I haven't seen them.
**[16:18] ---**
They're not here.
**[16:20] ---**
No, not a clue.
**[16:22] ---**
Huh? Gai and the other two disappeared?
**[16:25] ---**
We've looked everywhere.
**[16:29] ---**
I might have an idea...
**[16:34] ---**
Gai, are you in there?
**[16:39] ---**
Nayuta, please answer me!
**[16:43] ---**
We're all worried about you guys!
**[16:45] ---**
Worried? It's too late for that!
**[16:48] ---**
Gai's right. We know you guys
are creating new AIs.
**[16:52] ---**
Huh?!
**[16:53] ---**
We understand that our job is done.
**[16:56] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[16:57] ---**
It's just a misunderstanding!
Why would me make--
**[16:59] ---**
Enough with the lies!
We don't want anything to do with you!
**[17:03] ---**
Uhh...
**[17:04] ---**
Are they really not coming out?
**[17:07] ---**
They've shut themselves in...
**[17:08] ---**
What do we do?
**[17:09] ---**
Leave it to me!
**[17:11] ---**
Don't! Just stay out of this!
**[17:13] ---**
I think it's best if one of their partners
talk to them. Shion?
**[17:17] ---**
Huh?
**[17:21] ---**
Uhh...
**[17:24] ---**
Don't get mad if I can't pull it off.
**[17:28] ---**
O Nayuta! Wherefore art thou Nayuta?!
**[17:32] ---**
Huh?
**[17:33] ---**
I wish to see your sweet face.
**[17:36] ---**
I hope my love for you reaches you!
**[17:40] ---**
M-My princess!
**[17:41] ---**
Idiot, don't fall for it!
**[17:46] ---**
Sorry, my love didn't reach Nayuta.
**[17:49] ---**
Nice try, though!
**[17:51] ---**
Gashin, you go next!
**[17:53] ---**
Huh?!
**[17:54] ---**
Kei is more level-headed than Gai
**[17:56] ---**
and will listen if you
pour your heart out.
**[18:16] ---**
I love Kei so much.
**[18:18] ---**
I treasure Kei more than
anything in my life.
**[18:21] ---**
Thank you very, very much
for always being there for me.
**[18:25] ---**
--Oof...
--Yeesh.
**[18:26] ---**
Wow, you couldn't sound flatter than that.
**[18:28] ---**
At least put *some* emotion into it...
**[18:30] ---**
Gashin...
**[18:31] ---**
Oh, come on! Don't let him fool you!
**[18:37] ---**
Even Gashin failed.
**[18:39] ---**
Unsurprisingly.
**[18:40] ---**
We have no other choice.
Amou, you're our last hope!
**[18:57] ---**
Gai, listen to me.
**[19:00] ---**
I don't blame you guys for being mad.
We were hiding something from you.
**[19:06] ---**
And we're sorry.
**[19:07] ---**
But we weren't neglecting you three.
**[19:11] ---**
We weren't making new AIs!
**[19:13] ---**
You three are very important
and irreplaceable to us!
**[19:17] ---**
It's true! Nothing can replace you!
**[19:22] ---**
So give us another chance
and believe in us, please?
**[19:39] ---**
Just this once...
**[19:46] ---**
Okay, let's do this!
**[19:52] ---**
Huh? What's this?
**[19:54] ---**
It's showtime!
**[20:02] ---**
Wha...?
**[20:03] ---**
We're in the same space as you guys?
**[20:06] ---**
Huh? What? What's going on?!
**[20:07] ---**
Amou! What is this?!
**[20:09] ---**
Look, it's appearing!
**[20:19] ---**
Happy birthday!
**[20:24] ---**
Those faces...!
**[20:26] ---**
Our surprise party was a success!
**[20:28] ---**
We didn't tell you because
we wanted to surprise you.
**[20:31] ---**
After learning about your birthday,
Amou came up with this MR party.
**[20:38] ---**
Everyone was onboard,
and started prepping behind your backs.
**[20:42] ---**
Not bad for a rush job, huh?
**[20:45] ---**
It was a lot of work, though.
**[20:48] ---**
We're sorry we got you worried!
**[20:51] ---**
So that's what this was about...
Not a new AI, but a party...
**[20:56] ---**
This is... This is so...
**[21:15] ---**
Here.
**[21:18] ---**
This feels a little weird.
**[21:20] ---**
Like I said yesterday.
**[21:22] ---**
Gai, it's you who
got me through so much stuff.
**[21:28] ---**
Thanks.
**[21:30] ---**
Amou...
**[21:32] ---**
Let's celebrate the anniversary of
the birth of Gai, Kei, and Nayuta!
**[21:36] ---**
Cheers!
**[21:38] ---**
Happy birthday!
**[22:02] ---**
Special mission complete!
**[22:05] ---**
There's something I have to do,
so I'll excuse myself.
**[22:08] ---**
Understood.
**[22:12] ---**
Thank you all for waiting.
**[22:17] ---**
"Episode 19: Anniversary"
**[23:49] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
**[23:51] ---**
Wow, that birthday party sure was a blast!
**[23:54] ---**
I've never experienced anything like it!
**[23:56] ---**
I wouldn't mind having one every day!
**[23:58] ---**
If you had it every day,
it wouldn't feel special.
**[24:01] ---**
I'm more concerned about Mr. Udou.
**[24:04] ---**
Yeah, he left mid-party.
I wonder if something happened?

**[00:04] ---**
I never imagined there'd be a day
when I'd see you all like this.
**[00:10] ---**
Lieutenant Colonel Alexei Zelenoy
of the Federation of Great Eurasia.
**[00:13] ---**
Temporary Captain Ho Guang
of the Asian Free Trade Entente.
**[00:18] ---**
Second Lieutenant Oliver Martin
of the Confederation of Oceania.
**[00:20] ---**
Likewise, Chairman Udou Kiryu.
**[00:24] ---**
I'll cut to the chase. We're prepared
to support Yatagarasu--
**[00:28] ---**
no, the people of Japan.
**[00:32] ---**
Historians of future generations
will note that
**[00:36] ---**
this was the day when we all took
the first step to change the world.
**[00:58] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[02:13] ---**
You're clear to unload!
Be careful, though!
**[02:18] ---**
Where could Chief and the others be
when we've got something so cool here?
**[02:26] ---**
Are you serious...?
**[02:28] ---**
Yes. The Asian, Oceanian,
and Eurasian blocs
**[02:31] ---**
will form a cooperation organization
in a specific Japanese region.
**[02:35] ---**
They approached us to see if we,
Yatagarasu, could join.
**[02:40] ---**
In return, they'll liberate the Hokuriku
region, an enclave of the AFTE.
**[02:47] ---**
The three blocs will treat it as Japanese
land and allow autonomy there.
**[02:52] ---**
Wow...
**[02:53] ---**
In other words, we'll be
taking back a part of Japan.
**[02:58] ---**
Wow, that's great!
**[02:59] ---**
That's mighty generous of them.
**[03:02] ---**
It shows how alarmed they are of the NAC.
**[03:06] ---**
They'll "liberate" and return our land?
**[03:09] ---**
They should be returning *all* of our land.
**[03:11] ---**
Tezuka...
**[03:14] ---**
Anyway, can they be trusted?
**[03:16] ---**
The Japanese government became a puppet
of the NAC. We may end up that way, too..
**[03:21] ---**
I don't disagree, but I think
this is still worth considering.
**[03:27] ---**
The land they plan on returning
includes Eurasian and NAC territories.
**[03:32] ---**
The Federation of Great Eurasia
has already agreed to it,
**[03:35] ---**
and we plan on negotiating with the NAC
after Japan's autonomy is restored.
**[03:41] ---**
The three blocs will back us up
when the time comes.
**[03:44] ---**
It includes Mr. Cyril's area, too.
**[03:47] ---**
Yeah.
**[03:48] ---**
It doesn't sound like a bad deal...
**[03:51] ---**
...but it's not as simple as that.
**[03:52] ---**
Isn't that right, Chairman?
**[03:54] ---**
That's correct.
There are two major issues.
**[03:58] ---**
Location is one.
**[04:00] ---**
Just like we mainly operate
in the Chugoku region,
**[04:03] ---**
there are others that operate
mainly in the Hokuriku region.
**[04:08] ---**
Resistance organizations have
strong horizontal relationships,
**[04:10] ---**
but not a hierarchical one.
**[04:13] ---**
If we, Yatagarasu,
act like representatives of Japan,
**[04:16] ---**
those that fought to protect
that region wouldn't be amused.
**[04:20] ---**
'Cause they'd lose face...
**[04:22] ---**
The other problem would be with the NAC?
**[04:25] ---**
The Japanese government may exist only
in name, but they're under NAC's thumb.
**[04:30] ---**
"To protect Japan," the NAC is able to
take aggressive military actions.
**[04:36] ---**
Obviously, the three blocs would
welcome the Japanese government,
**[04:40] ---**
but the NAC would never allow it.
**[04:45] ---**
There's no reason for them to
give the enemy an advantage.
**[04:49] ---**
If they *do* allow it, then *they*
become the enemy of Japan.
**[04:54] ---**
And then *they'd* lose face.
**[04:57] ---**
Which means there's a long road ahead
before we could negotiate with the NAC.
**[05:03] ---**
Why are you telling us this?
**[05:07] ---**
It was a request from
Lieutenant Colonel Alexei Zelenoy.
**[05:11] ---**
We have high expectations for the three
original AMAIMs' combat ability.
**[05:17] ---**
To be completely honest,
that's all we care about.
**[05:20] ---**
We know there's another one in Hokkaido,
but it's out of my jurisdiction.
**[05:25] ---**
So my hands are tied.
**[05:27] ---**
We think highly of
the original AMAIMs you have.
**[05:32] ---**
However, that doesn't mean we'll
steal or seize your technology by force.
**[05:36] ---**
Doing so would upset the military balance
and trust between us.
**[05:42] ---**
Doubts and fear would tear us apart,
which goes against our initial goal.
**[05:48] ---**
How the original AMAIMs will be handled
will be written in the document.
**[05:53] ---**
This will be based on legal grounds.
**[05:56] ---**
We three economic blocs are open
to the cooperation organization.
**[06:01] ---**
You can take it or leave it.
We hope you'll make the smart decision.
**[06:08] ---**
You're MAILeS pilots.
**[06:11] ---**
That's why I thought you should know.
**[06:15] ---**
--Um...
--Hmm?
**[06:17] ---**
What about me?
**[06:18] ---**
Well, you're one of us, and the president
and chief developer of TRYVECTA.
**[06:24] ---**
Thank you.
**[06:25] ---**
Would you all think about it?
**[06:31] ---**
What do you think?
**[06:33] ---**
Well, I don't think it's a bad idea.
**[06:38] ---**
Yeah, but I'm sure
there'd be lots of issues.
**[06:42] ---**
More than what Mr. Udou mentioned.
**[06:44] ---**
We'll even have to go head-to-head
with the North American military.
**[06:47] ---**
They've always been our enemy.
**[06:50] ---**
Sure, but...
**[06:52] ---**
Hey, now. Don't be so down, Amou!
**[06:55] ---**
It's normal to feel nervous when you're
about to start something new.
**[06:59] ---**
It's also unprecedented.
**[07:01] ---**
Once the ball starts rolling,
the consequences will impact the future.
**[07:04] ---**
That's likely why Udou
hasn't come to a decision.
**[07:08] ---**
Yeah...
**[07:11] ---**
You all talking about that?
**[07:13] ---**
Try not to talk about it
in places like this.
**[07:16] ---**
You never know who's listening.
**[07:17] ---**
--Seriously, there's nothing better
than shiny new parts!
--If this gets out to the public, the whole plan could fall apart.
**[07:21] ---**
--The smell of fresh oil and everything
--If this gets out to the public,
the whole plan could fall apart.
**[07:24] ---**
--really gets my appetite going!
--If this gets out to the public,
the whole plan could fall apart.
**[07:24] ---**
--really gets my appetite going!
--These are sensitive topics.
**[07:26] ---**
--really gets my appetite going!
--Understood.
**[07:29] ---**
Gashin, Amou, and Shion
were discussing it, huh?
**[07:32] ---**
Yes...
**[07:33] ---**
What did the organization in Niigata say?
**[07:35] ---**
They were confounded.
**[07:38] ---**
Your initial assessment?
**[07:39] ---**
A ratio of six to four,
with more opposers than supporters.
**[07:42] ---**
I guess they aren't fond of the idea
that we'd be the new face of Japan...
**[07:47] ---**
I'm sure that's not
the only reason, but...
**[07:49] ---**
What do you plan to do if
Gashin and the other two oppose?
**[07:53] ---**
We can't simply dismiss
the three pilots' opinions.
**[07:57] ---**
So you're leaving it up to them?
**[07:59] ---**
No, it's us adults that'll
make the final call.
**[08:06] ---**
It's ours and the prior generations' fault
**[08:09] ---**
that Japan is currently divided
and ruled by strangers.
**[08:15] ---**
We mustn't leave this painful legacy
to the next generation.
**[08:23] ---**
We, the adults, must take responsibility,
so that the children can live freely.
**[08:29] ---**
That's my goal, at least.
**[08:32] ---**
Of course.
**[08:38] ---**
We should go for it.
**[08:42] ---**
I thought it over.
**[08:44] ---**
It's maddening to be in their debt,
but we'd still be getting Japan back.
**[08:50] ---**
Even if it's just one area,
it's a big step forward.
**[08:53] ---**
I choose to move forward
rather than waiting at a standstill.
**[08:59] ---**
We can deal with the problems as we go.
**[09:03] ---**
Better than fretting over it
right now, huh?
**[09:06] ---**
Yeah.
**[09:07] ---**
Yeah, I agree with you.
**[09:08] ---**
It makes me happy to think that
our actions are finally bearing fruit.
**[09:13] ---**
All thanks to you, my princess!
**[09:15] ---**
It was a team effort, silly.
**[09:18] ---**
If it means the Japanese people
can live like Japanese people...
**[09:22] ---**
If it's going to help those
who live in Japan, I'm in.
**[09:27] ---**
Yeah!
**[09:28] ---**
Exactly!
**[09:33] ---**
Ah, are they the original AMAIM pilots?
**[09:38] ---**
They're young but talented.
**[09:40] ---**
Yes, I know from experience.
**[09:48] ---**
I'd like to start, since we're all here.
**[09:52] ---**
First off, Chairman Udo, what's your
answer to yesterday's proposal?
**[09:56] ---**
We'd like to officially accept
**[09:59] ---**
and join the cooperation organization.
**[10:05] ---**
How are things going with
the organizations in Hokuriku?
**[10:08] ---**
We're still working on it,
but they're all lending their ears.
**[10:13] ---**
I believe we can get everyone on board
within a few days' time.
**[10:17] ---**
He's making it sound easy,
but this was only possible
**[10:20] ---**
because of his tenacious persuasion
during numerous meetings.
**[10:25] ---**
That said, I'd like to verify one thing.
**[10:27] ---**
Will you really enact laws to protect
the rights of the Japanese people?
**[10:33] ---**
We'll include that
in the document as well.
**[10:36] ---**
However, we will not allow immigration
to New Japan from other territories.
**[10:42] ---**
Understand?
**[10:44] ---**
--Yes.
--What...? But that's...
**[10:47] ---**
They're not saying this out of malice.
**[10:51] ---**
If the Japanese people can
live as Japanese people,
**[10:54] ---**
many would rush over to New Japan.
**[10:57] ---**
But at the start of restoration, we'll have
no economic base to support them.
**[11:03] ---**
We need to avoid New Japan from falling.
**[11:06] ---**
Of course, once it takes off...
**[11:11] ---**
We'll let the wind decide
what the future will hold.
**[11:15] ---**
Anyway, now that everyone's in agreement,
**[11:19] ---**
let's kick off the signing ceremony.
**[11:22] ---**
We'll leave immediately to assemble
in what will become New Japan!
**[11:38] ---**
I'm temporary First Lieutenant
Sun Qiong from the AFTE.
**[11:42] ---**
This hangar is for your exclusive use.
**[11:47] ---**
Please make yourselves at home.
**[11:49] ---**
Let me know if you need anything.
**[11:51] ---**
Thank you.
**[11:53] ---**
I'll excuse myself.
**[11:56] ---**
This is great. We'll be able to
work a lot more efficiently.
**[12:00] ---**
Reiki and Kenbu were sent to Hokuriku
yesterday, ready for final adjustments.
**[12:04] ---**
With all this equipment, we can assemble
Jogan's new armor and weapon sooner.
**[12:10] ---**
Don't worry, you'll catch up
to them in no time.
**[12:13] ---**
Right.
**[12:19] ---**
I've never been on a plane before.
**[12:22] ---**
Me neither.
**[12:23] ---**
We're flying between
Asian territories, so no red flags.
**[12:28] ---**
We don't need fake IDs. This is a breeze!
**[12:36] ---**
I'm Alexei Zelenoy.
**[12:38] ---**
Udou Kiryu.
**[12:40] ---**
Nice to meet you all.
**[12:43] ---**
I'd love to sit and chat,
but the signing ceremony is starting.
**[12:47] ---**
This way.
**[12:54] ---**
W-Wow...
**[12:56] ---**
Remember this moment well.
**[13:00] ---**
This will be a turning point in history!
**[13:04] ---**
"Streaming live from the signing ceremony"
"New government founded: part of Japan liberated by the AFTE"
**[13:04] ---**
Just now, the representatives of
the Eurasia, the AFTE, and the Oceania
**[13:08] ---**
have signed the document agreeing
to the cooperation organization.
**[13:15] ---**
"New government founded:
part of Japan liberated by the AFTE"
**[13:15] ---**
"Area that will be returned
to the new government"
**[13:15] ---**
The AFTE territory centering
around Hokuriku will be liberated,
**[13:20] ---**
transferring full sovereignty to the
newly established government there.
**[13:24] ---**
What are they thinking?! They just
created a country within a country!
**[13:28] ---**
Are they doing this out of spite?
**[13:30] ---**
This will shift the political
climate drastically.
**[13:45] ---**
Thank you all for your hard work.
**[13:48] ---**
Follow me, please.
**[13:54] ---**
She's pretty.
**[13:55] ---**
What?
**[13:57] ---**
Wh-Why are you making that face? Stop it.
**[14:00] ---**
Shion!
**[14:01] ---**
Anna! What are you doing here?
**[14:04] ---**
Getting some stuff done, since Brother's
sanctuary is now a part of New Japan.
**[14:10] ---**
I'm representing him.
**[14:11] ---**
He still needs to take care
of his newborn baby.
**[14:14] ---**
I see!
**[14:16] ---**
This is so exciting.
**[14:17] ---**
Yeah, it really is.
**[14:19] ---**
Hey, are you free tonight? Let's catch up.
**[14:22] ---**
Yes, of course!
**[14:27] ---**
Seems you and Major Cyril Zhirkov
know each other well.
**[14:32] ---**
I proposed we include them in New Japan.
**[14:36] ---**
Figured that'd make it easier
for you guys to join.
**[14:40] ---**
Was I wrong?
**[14:41] ---**
Um, no, I mean...
**[14:43] ---**
He knows.
**[14:46] ---**
Hmm? Who are you talking to?
**[14:49] ---**
It's bad manners to eavesdrop
on a private conversation.
**[14:52] ---**
Th-That's not what this is!
**[14:53] ---**
Amou, just show him!
He'll find out sooner or later.
**[14:56] ---**
O-Okay...
**[15:01] ---**
A sheep?
**[15:02] ---**
No! I'm a lion-dog!
**[15:04] ---**
Did you design this?
**[15:06] ---**
N-No, Gai came up with it.
**[15:08] ---**
I'm Gai, the autonomous AI in Kenbu!
Nice to meet you!
**[15:13] ---**
Hm, it speaks smoothly.
How high is its IQ?
**[15:18] ---**
Tsk, tsk, tsk. It's super-duper high!
Don't take me for an idiot!
**[15:22] ---**
You certainly talk like one.
**[15:24] ---**
What?!
**[15:26] ---**
I had Major Zhirkov secretly
send me your combat data.
**[15:31] ---**
You urged the enemy
commander to retreat. Why?
**[15:36] ---**
Why?
**[15:37] ---**
Why didn't you kill him?
**[15:39] ---**
Because I didn't think it was necessary.
**[15:42] ---**
Did the AI tell you that?
**[15:43] ---**
No, it was my choice.
**[15:46] ---**
Hmm.
**[15:48] ---**
Is that a problem?
**[15:49] ---**
I'm not talking about right and wrong.
**[15:53] ---**
I'm asking if you're prepared to kill
your enemies when push comes to shove.
**[16:04] ---**
Yes.
**[16:06] ---**
You need to, in a war.
**[16:09] ---**
You aren't in the wrong at all.
**[16:12] ---**
I believe we can be good friends.
**[16:18] ---**
I'd like to have a drink with you one day.
**[16:21] ---**
Grow up into an adult sooner.
**[16:23] ---**
That's...
**[16:24] ---**
I'll be there, too!
**[16:27] ---**
But you can't drink.
**[16:28] ---**
Sorry to disappoint, but there's this
MR technology that we used before!
**[16:33] ---**
Oh?
**[16:34] ---**
I never imagined I'd
see you again like this.
**[16:39] ---**
Me neither.
**[16:43] ---**
Looks like the AFTE
gave up a lot of land for this.
**[16:46] ---**
Got stuck with the short end of the stick?
**[16:50] ---**
The enclaves were difficult to manage
since the NAC expanded its territory.
**[16:56] ---**
Communication, transportation of human
resources and supplies, supply lines...
**[17:01] ---**
The NAC interfered with us
on many occasions.
**[17:05] ---**
Some were glad to get rid of
the thorn in their side,
**[17:07] ---**
allowing the consolidation of forces.
**[17:12] ---**
I see.
**[17:13] ---**
We're giving up the land,
**[17:15] ---**
but Eurasia and Oceania are responsible
for the manpower and budget.
**[17:19] ---**
So it evens out.
**[17:22] ---**
That's good.
**[17:24] ---**
I was relieved when I
heard about this proposal.
**[17:28] ---**
I didn't want to point our guns at you.
**[17:33] ---**
You and me both.
**[17:35] ---**
Did you get an email from Yuusei?
**[17:37] ---**
Yeah, he said I beat him to it,
**[17:40] ---**
but he sounds happy for us.
**[17:42] ---**
The framework of New Japan
was largely based on
**[17:45] ---**
Yuusei's autonomous city
and Zhirkov's sanctuary.
**[17:49] ---**
--You should share that with him!
--Yeah.
**[17:51] ---**
Gashin, give me a hand, will ya?!
**[17:54] ---**
On it!
**[17:59] ---**
Have you lost your mind?
**[18:01] ---**
Former soldier of an infantry battalion
in the First Area Army.
**[18:05] ---**
Once chosen as a candidate for
a world shooting championship.
**[18:08] ---**
You had a brilliant career,
but now you live in the underworld.
**[18:13] ---**
But I can wipe your slate clean,
give you a new life.
**[18:19] ---**
You think I'd trust you?
**[18:22] ---**
I'm crossing a dangerous bridge myself.
**[18:26] ---**
Or would you rather take me down with you?
**[18:31] ---**
Your only choice is to
follow my orders or die.
**[18:40] ---**
Thank you.
**[18:52] ---**
You need to work on your tailing skills,
Second Lieutenant Sofia Louis.
**[18:58] ---**
I could write a letter of recommendation
for the Intelligence Agency's
**[19:03] ---**
special training program, if you'd like?
**[19:05] ---**
Have you really not noticed?
**[19:08] ---**
The Public Safety Department
is making their move.
**[19:14] ---**
You *do* know... Why are you doing this?!
**[19:20] ---**
You've changed since we acquired Ghost!
**[19:25] ---**
Request for your discharge,
Second Lieutenant Sofia Louis.
**[19:29] ---**
Before you get in my way.
**[19:33] ---**
A cooperation organization
founded by the three blocs?
**[19:37] ---**
New Japan? This is absurd!
**[19:40] ---**
Meaning, the NAC will not accept it?
**[19:45] ---**
Of course not. We have
the Japanese government.
**[19:49] ---**
What they're doing is
supporting terrorist organizations.
**[19:52] ---**
To accept it is to give in to terrorism!
**[19:56] ---**
But it's the politicians that have
stepped into the spotlight.
**[20:00] ---**
Scheming bastards...
**[20:01] ---**
The nerve of them to say they'll
welcome the Japanese government.
**[20:06] ---**
You won too hard.
**[20:09] ---**
And you pushed the three blocs to unite.
**[20:14] ---**
I told you,
**[20:15] ---**
you must win a little and lose a little,
maintaining the balance.
**[20:22] ---**
I don't need a lecture from you.
**[20:24] ---**
My apologies.
**[20:28] ---**
Your orders are to dismantle this
cooperation organization, correct?
**[20:34] ---**
We'll provide anything you need.
**[20:37] ---**
Am I free to use any means necessary?
**[20:40] ---**
I didn't say anything
or hear anything. And you'll--
**[20:45] ---**
...delete our communication records.
**[20:57] ---**
The NAC just contacted us, letting us know
that they'd like to hold a meeting.
**[21:04] ---**
Not to negotiate about the Japanese
government or the territory,
**[21:08] ---**
but as a preliminary step forward.
**[21:11] ---**
Therefore, each bloc's representatives
will not be attending this meeting.
**[21:15] ---**
The meeting in Tokyo will be
attended by me, three assistants,
**[21:20] ---**
and you, Shiiba Amou.
**[21:25] ---**
Why me?
**[21:26] ---**
It was their request.
**[21:29] ---**
They asked that the original AMAIM pilot
skilled in hand-to-hand combat join.
**[21:33] ---**
What...?
**[21:34] ---**
You'll be a guest, so there's no need to
attend the actual meeting.
**[21:39] ---**
But why?
**[21:40] ---**
You must've caught
someone's eye there, as well.

I'm tingling with excitement!

Keep your guard up.

**[00:13] ---**
We may be in NAC territory,
but we're guests here.
**[00:17] ---**
They aren't going to harm us.
**[00:19] ---**
We've been expecting you.
**[00:21] ---**
Thank you for the warm welcome.
**[00:23] ---**
That's him, the man who
requested your presence here.
**[00:31] ---**
You must be tired, so I apologize,
**[00:33] ---**
but we'll be taking you straight to
the conference center.
**[00:36] ---**
Follow me, please.
**[00:46] ---**
I'm reporting live from
the guest house entrance.
**[00:49] ---**
Today, the future of the world
will be determined here,
***SIGN*** "Streaming live from the guest house entrance" "Peacemaking conference with the NAC to liberate Japan begins"
**[00:52] ---**
as the NJCO, New Japan
Cooperation Organization, and NAC
**[00:54] ---**
begin their preliminary meeting.
**[01:01] ---**
There's Congressman Roy Walker!
***SIGN*** "Streaming live from the guest house entrance" "Peacemaking conference with the NAC to liberate Japan begins"
**[01:04] ---**
Chosen as a mediator for this meeting,
**[01:08] ---**
his actions could drastically
impact the future of Japan.
**[01:15] ---**
Lieutenant Colonel!
**[01:16] ---**
I'm fine. What about you?
**[01:18] ---**
I-I'm okay, too.
**[01:20] ---**
Call the ambulance!
**[01:21] ---**
And the police!
**[01:23] ---**
Congressman Walker's been shot!
**[01:43] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:08] ---**
They're just protecting us.
**[03:12] ---**
Of course, if the situation changes,
they'll quickly point their guns at us.
**[03:17] ---**
Who'd plan an assassination...?
**[03:19] ---**
Who knows? I'm sure the NAC is
frantically trying to find the sniper.
**[03:25] ---**
Amou, I updated Udou and the others
on our situation.
**[03:29] ---**
Thanks.
**[03:31] ---**
Excuse me.
**[03:39] ---**
Amou and Alexei are safe.
**[03:41] ---**
But, as material witnesses
and for their protection,
**[03:44] ---**
they're under house arrest at a hotel.
**[03:47] ---**
Amou...
**[03:49] ---**
Now's no longer the time
to be holding a meeting.
**[03:52] ---**
We need to get them back
as soon as possible.
**[03:55] ---**
I doubt they'd let them go that easily.
**[03:58] ---**
Who was the sniper?!
**[04:00] ---**
The NAC is currently investigating.
**[04:03] ---**
It could be the IEU,
or infighting within the NAC.
**[04:08] ---**
Resistance organizations in Tokyo
are another possibility.
**[04:12] ---**
It was a sniper attack
in the NAC territory
**[04:14] ---**
that started the Boundary War, too.
**[04:17] ---**
To this day, it's unclear
which army was responsible.
**[04:22] ---**
Regardless, we need to do
everything we can,
**[04:26] ---**
just in case.
**[04:34] ---**
So that's the gist of it.
**[04:36] ---**
We don't know how
the situation will play out.
**[04:38] ---**
Finish installing Jogan's
new equipment ASAP.
**[04:41] ---**
Understood.
**[04:49] ---**
You were at the hot springs...
**[04:51] ---**
You remember me.
**[04:56] ---**
Currently, Ghost is hiding
in the Oki Islands.
**[04:59] ---**
German Gobert arranged everything.
**[05:01] ---**
He weaseled himself into
the North American military,
**[05:03] ---**
the largest in the world,
by offering up Ghost.
**[05:04] ---**
Camouflaging them as accidents,
**[05:06] ---**
he then attacked Brenson Corp
and the TRYVECTA facilities.
**[05:08] ---**
According to online rumors,
the North American military is behind it.
**[05:18] ---**
Calm down.
**[05:29] ---**
I'm Captain Brad Watt from
the North American military.
**[05:33] ---**
Why would a soldier conduct an interview?
**[05:35] ---**
Someone else will be here to do that.
**[05:38] ---**
I've been given special permission
to speak to you two.
**[05:43] ---**
We've done nothing wrong.
There's nothing to say.
**[05:47] ---**
You can exercise your right to
remain silent during the interview.
**[05:50] ---**
You guys were awfully quick to take us
into custody after Roy Walker's shooting.
**[05:54] ---**
You're either very good, or you knew
something was going to happen.
**[06:01] ---**
I wonder...
**[06:03] ---**
Our security level was raised
in order to handle any contingencies.
**[06:09] ---**
Who was the shooter?
**[06:11] ---**
It's under investigation.
**[06:13] ---**
Why are we under house arrest?
**[06:15] ---**
You're not. This is
for your own protection.
**[06:18] ---**
You're free to do as you please
in this room, even use your cell phones.
**[06:24] ---**
Unfortunately, we do have some
communication restrictions in place.
**[06:28] ---**
He's right.
**[06:30] ---**
Physically, I'm still in Hokuriku.
**[06:32] ---**
All I can do is communicate with you,
so watch your back.
**[06:36] ---**
We'll cooperate for a peaceful resolution,
**[06:40] ---**
but we don't know anything.
**[06:42] ---**
Which is why you two could be targeted.
**[06:47] ---**
Hence the protective custody.
**[06:52] ---**
Captain.
**[06:53] ---**
Looks like my time's up.
I'll see you later.
**[07:03] ---**
Yesterday, Congressman Walker
was shot by a sniper.
**[07:08] ---**
Fortunately, he survived the attack.
**[07:11] ---**
To bring peace to Japan, he continued
his efforts to end the war quickly.
**[07:17] ---**
He accepted the position as a mediator,
taking the NJCO very seriously.
**[07:24] ---**
However, his hopes were all but crushed
by an act of cowardice.
**[07:29] ---**
We cannot imagine
the depth of his disappointment,
**[07:32] ---**
but the meeting with
the NJCO will be canceled.
**[07:39] ---**
That's all. Any questions?
**[07:45] ---**
Do you have a lead on the sniper?
**[07:47] ---**
The investigation is underway,
with all hands on deck.
**[07:51] ---**
Will the meeting be rescheduled?
**[07:54] ---**
We're not at that point yet.
Apprehending the shooter takes priority.
**[08:00] ---**
Last question.
**[08:02] ---**
Our sources state that
the three blocs' Special Forces
**[08:06] ---**
have infiltrated Tokyo.
**[08:10] ---**
I can't disclose our source,
but surely the NAC knows about this?
**[08:16] ---**
Well played. Even with baseless rumors,
conversations can be steered.
**[08:22] ---**
That's how you manipulate public opinion.
**[08:26] ---**
Our investigations are
related to sensitive information,
**[08:28] ---**
so we cannot answer.
**[08:30] ---**
So you *do* know about it?
**[08:33] ---**
Wouldn't that mean the NJCO's
behind this shooting incident?
**[08:40] ---**
No comment.
**[08:42] ---**
However, seeing that we're at war
with them, that's entirely possible.
**[08:51] ---**
We don't know who the shooter is,
**[08:53] ---**
but this is an assault and
a violation of world peace.
**[08:59] ---**
We're prepared to retaliate
against this atrocity.
**[09:03] ---**
For all intents and purposes,
we've got the declaration of war.
**[09:10] ---**
I'm glad you're all right.
**[09:12] ---**
Perfect, an unwelcome visitor.
**[09:15] ---**
I heard you were wearing
a bulletproof vest.
**[09:17] ---**
Thanks to the special police's advice.
**[09:20] ---**
You were lucky.
**[09:24] ---**
Is this all part of your plan?
**[09:28] ---**
You're well protected in this
military hospital. No need to worry.
**[09:41] ---**
A-All right, I did my part!
Where's my money?
**[09:46] ---**
I just paid. Please confirm the transfer.
**[09:50] ---**
Ah... Let me know if you need me again!
**[09:56] ---**
Now to make arrangements
to take care of him...
**[10:01] ---**
You can start a war
with just a few people...
**[10:05] ---**
...and a little seed money.
**[10:17] ---**
Are you worried about the captain?
**[10:21] ---**
You're right, he hasn't been
acting like himself lately.
**[10:25] ---**
He's always been a daredevil,
but he was more jovial.
**[10:31] ---**
Can I trust you, Warrant Officer Hardy?
**[10:36] ---**
If Captain Watt is
walking a dangerous path,
**[10:41] ---**
will you be able to stop him?
**[10:44] ---**
Of course.
**[10:52] ---**
Do you know this man?
**[10:55] ---**
Pike Davis, 32 years old.
**[10:57] ---**
Ex-soldier, former candidate
for a world shooting championship.
**[11:01] ---**
Two years ago, he shot and killed
two fellow soldiers.
**[11:05] ---**
He was never caught, and he even
briefly worked with the mafia.
**[11:10] ---**
What about him?
**[11:12] ---**
The other day, I saw the captain
make contact with this man.
**[11:17] ---**
Maybe the captain ordered him
to shoot Roy Walker...!
**[11:22] ---**
Impossible. He'd never do that.
**[11:25] ---**
I wish I could believe that, but...
**[11:31] ---**
If you're going to
look into this, I'll help.
**[11:36] ---**
Just don't do anything rash on your own.
**[11:39] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[11:55] ---**
We heard back from
Temporary Captain Guang.
**[11:59] ---**
The North American military's started
their advance on the Asian borders.
**[12:04] ---**
There have been
minor conflicts in the past,
**[12:06] ---**
but it seems they've rescinded
the temporary arbitration they had.
**[12:10] ---**
The fact that they're advancing now
could be an act of retaliation.
**[12:15] ---**
"AFTE territory" "NAC territory"
**[12:15] ---**
If they breach the border
and continue their advancement,
**[12:19] ---**
the NAC will control the west side
of the main island.
**[12:22] ---**
In other words, the AFTE's only territory
will be the northern area of Kyushu.
**[12:26] ---**
If the AFTE decides that Japan
isn't worth controlling...
**[12:32] ---**
They could potentially
withdraw from Japan.
**[12:35] ---**
If that happens,
the NJCO will cease to exist,
**[12:38] ---**
making it more difficult to realize
our vision of New Japan.
**[12:43] ---**
Kumai.
**[12:44] ---**
Sir.
**[12:47] ---**
The AFTE's sending reinforcements
from all over, but it'll take time.
**[12:52] ---**
You guys are closer to the border.
**[12:54] ---**
Get there immediately and help them out!
**[12:56] ---**
Roger that.
**[12:58] ---**
Just in time, huh?
**[13:00] ---**
Yeah.
**[13:31] ---**
Dammit, quit dancing around!
**[13:33] ---**
Your attacks are too predictable!
**[13:45] ---**
This is bad. They'll breach
the front line at this rate.
**[13:50] ---**
To the west of the front line is a lake.
**[13:52] ---**
Our communication
base station is on an island there.
**[13:56] ---**
If they destroy that base station...
**[13:58] ---**
Kei, gather intel on the area.
**[14:01] ---**
You got it!
**[14:04] ---**
First and second platoons are destroyed!
**[14:07] ---**
The enemy forces are still advancing!
**[14:10] ---**
Dammit! We can't hold them off.
The front line's gonna collapse!
**[14:15] ---**
All units, fall back to
the secondary defense line!
**[14:24] ---**
Good, we're almost there!
**[14:28] ---**
Now! Fall back!
**[14:40] ---**
You can't get to us now!
**[14:45] ---**
What?!
**[14:51] ---**
Your sniper missed.
**[14:54] ---**
He's only human, he's bound to
make mistakes from time to time.
**[14:58] ---**
Have you taken care of him?
**[15:01] ---**
Don't worry, we'll take care of him,
along with that journalist.
**[15:07] ---**
Never betray my trust again.
**[15:11] ---**
Of course not.
**[15:15] ---**
I-I did everything like y-you told me to!
**[15:19] ---**
Give me my passport!
**[15:23] ---**
Good, this won't leave a trail.
**[15:35] ---**
They've got amazing mobility...!
**[15:37] ---**
Major Kaku, have you
received orders from HQ?
**[15:41] ---**
Yes, we're ready for it.
**[15:43] ---**
All right. Here's the proposed strategy.
**[15:47] ---**
While the unmanned units
are drawing enemy fire,
**[15:49] ---**
you're to retreat back to
the communication base station.
**[15:51] ---**
Roger that. I'm partially
transferring my command!
**[15:55] ---**
Transfer of command confirmed.
Executing the mission!
**[16:12] ---**
What...? Their movements
are completely different!
**[16:27] ---**
Apologies for the wait!
**[16:28] ---**
Thanks for coming.
Deploy to the left flank.
**[16:32] ---**
Roger that! They've got the rest...
**[16:40] ---**
Three hundred meters remaining!
**[16:45] ---**
Two hundred!
**[16:49] ---**
One hundred!
**[16:53] ---**
I'm gonna destroy the base station
and everything with it!
**[16:57] ---**
Zero!
**[17:13] ---**
Targets acquired! We're locked on
to all enemy units!
**[17:16] ---**
Engage!
**[17:25] ---**
What?!
**[17:47] ---**
Its power and range are unparalleled!
**[17:51] ---**
Even though we've lost some mobility...
**[17:53] ---**
...no ammo or laser
can penetrate this shield!
**[18:07] ---**
Such firepower...
**[18:16] ---**
We've destroyed half of the enemy force.
**[18:19] ---**
That's plenty. Let's move on
to search and destroy!
**[18:30] ---**
Let's go!
**[18:47] ---**
What *is* that thing...?
It isn't just a long-range sniper?!
**[19:04] ---**
All right! Follow the
original AMAIM's lead!
**[19:36] ---**
The North American military has retreated.
**[19:39] ---**
We owe our victory to you all.
**[19:43] ---**
Thank you for helping.
**[19:44] ---**
We were able to do a lot more
damage than anticipated.
**[19:48] ---**
Hopefully, they'll stay quiet for a while.
**[19:58] ---**
Damn terrorists...!
**[20:05] ---**
How rude of you to not knock.
**[20:07] ---**
I apologize, but there's been
a change in our situation.
**[20:12] ---**
There was a battle on the Asian border
on the west side of the main island.
**[20:17] ---**
The original AMAIM sniper's arrival
resulted in our catastrophic defeat.
**[20:23] ---**
You two will never be
released from here now.
**[20:28] ---**
Why not?!
**[20:29] ---**
We've put a blot on the all-mighty
North American military's record.
**[20:34] ---**
It shows that the NJCO's force
**[20:36] ---**
is more than capable
of taking on the NAC.
**[20:41] ---**
No longer over-optimistic,
perhaps we're hostages against the NJCO.
**[20:47] ---**
Maybe even to use us as scapegoats
for the shooting incident?
**[20:50] ---**
You're free to speculate.
**[20:54] ---**
What's this?
**[20:56] ---**
It's a fake security card for the hotel.
**[20:59] ---**
Isn't this a terrorist's go-to trick?
**[21:02] ---**
Unfortunately, it's only good for an hour.
**[21:05] ---**
You want us to escape?
**[21:08] ---**
I gave the same cards
to your assistants as well.
**[21:12] ---**
I don't know what your end game is,
but I won't be played with.
**[21:16] ---**
Just so you know,
the AI we have is quite smart.
**[21:20] ---**
It can delete any evidence
that could work against us.
**[21:24] ---**
Like the fact that I'm here.
**[21:27] ---**
Whether you escape or not is up to you.
Now, if you'll excuse me.
**[21:37] ---**
If it's only good for an hour,
**[21:39] ---**
we'll likely be detained
if we wait around.
**[21:44] ---**
I'm going. I don't plan on being
imprisoned for a crime I didn't commit.
**[21:49] ---**
I can clear my name later.
**[21:52] ---**
Exactly! As long as you're alive,
you can do anything!
**[21:57] ---**
Are you ready to do the same?
**[22:02] ---**
Yes!
**[22:10] ---**
I see... So they've escaped. Understood.

"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
**[23:52] ---**
Jeez, we're in deep trouble now.
**[23:55] ---**
We're back to being fugitives again...
**[23:56] ---**
--"Again"?
--U-Uh, never mind!
**[23:59] ---**
The North American military
are hunting you down.
**[24:01] ---**
We're sending reinforcements, but...
**[24:04] ---**
They won't let us escape that easily.

**[00:11] ---**
It looks like they haven't
cast a net this far.
**[00:15] ---**
Your escape's all over the news, though.
**[00:18] ---**
"Sudden disappearance
of the NJCO delegation (Tokyo)"
**[00:18] ---**
"Sudden disappearance
of the NJCO delegation."
**[00:23] ---**
The consensus in the NAC is that
we were behind the sniper incident.
**[00:27] ---**
It's the devil's proof, trying to prove
that you didn't do what you didn't do.
**[00:33] ---**
We're at a disadvantage.
**[00:34] ---**
What happened to the assistants?
**[00:36] ---**
They'll head to the NJCO separately.
**[00:39] ---**
If we travel together, we'll be a bigger
group, attracting unwanted attention.
**[00:43] ---**
They're professionals. They'll be fine.
**[00:46] ---**
We don't have a lot of
time to waste, either.
**[00:48] ---**
We should get moving. We'll find
a vehicle and supplies on the way.
**[00:52] ---**
Let's go.
**[01:11] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[02:27] ---**
"Our delegates' actions
are currently limited,
**[02:31] ---**
making it very difficult to secure
their freedom and prove their innocence.
**[02:37] ---**
Therefore, for their rights and safety,
we urged them to return home."
**[02:44] ---**
How does that sound
for public announcement?
**[02:48] ---**
I think that's fine.
We'll take it from here.
**[02:52] ---**
Gai, what's the status on
Lieutenant Colonel Zelenoy and Amou?
**[02:55] ---**
They're on the move around this area.
**[02:57] ---**
Since I'm physically located here,
**[03:00] ---**
all I can do is communicate with them.
**[03:03] ---**
They're moving carefully,
trying to stay under the radar.
**[03:07] ---**
Naturally, the North American military
will send pursuit groups.
**[03:12] ---**
We can't just sit on our hands, either.
**[03:16] ---**
However, if we move in large groups,
we'll get in each other's way.
**[03:20] ---**
Masaki, head an advance team and
meet up with the Lieutenant Colonel.
**[03:25] ---**
Take whoever you need.
**[03:26] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[03:27] ---**
I'll accompany you. I'm Lieutenant Colonel
Alexei Zelenoy's second-in-command.
**[03:36] ---**
All right. This mission requires us
to be swift and discreet.
**[03:42] ---**
Once the advance team joins up with them,
**[03:45] ---**
the backup team will
hold off any pursuers.
**[03:48] ---**
Lieutenant Colonel and
Amou's safety is top priority.
**[03:51] ---**
Kumai, you head the backup team.
**[03:54] ---**
Sir!
**[03:54] ---**
Which means we'll be in the backup team?
**[03:57] ---**
Yes. We're counting on you, Shion, Nayuta.
**[04:00] ---**
--Yes, sir!
--We're on it!
**[04:03] ---**
I hope it was all right for me to
give out the marching orders.
**[04:07] ---**
Of course. We're just supporters.
**[04:11] ---**
It'd be pointless if you don't
take the initiative in NJCO matters.
**[04:18] ---**
All right, everyone, get ready quickly.
**[04:21] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[04:23] ---**
You want us to go?
**[04:25] ---**
Yes. The first pursuit group is already
getting ready for deployment.
**[04:30] ---**
You'll be part of
the second pursuit group,
**[04:33] ---**
working together with the first
to go after the fugitives.
**[04:36] ---**
However, due to the recent battle
with the Eurasian military,
**[04:41] ---**
my unit is currently getting
a complete overhaul.
**[04:45] ---**
I cannot deploy.
**[04:46] ---**
You'll be given two platoons of unmanned
AMAIMs and a command vehicle to use.
**[04:52] ---**
Understood.
**[04:53] ---**
Anyway, I wonder how they escaped?
**[04:57] ---**
You think there's a traitor among us?
Anyone come to mind?
**[05:02] ---**
No, nobody.
**[05:04] ---**
However, doesn't this give us
a valid reason to invade New Japan?
**[05:09] ---**
Of course. We're already
working on that as well.
**[05:13] ---**
I'll inform you when the time comes.
**[05:15] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[05:17] ---**
You heard him.
**[05:20] ---**
We'll use Capricorn and Ghost
to calculate their anticipated route.
**[05:26] ---**
Go gather intel for us and
report back with what you find.
**[05:29] ---**
You have your own ways, don't you?
**[05:31] ---**
That's fine, but what will
you do with them?
**[05:36] ---**
Are you really going to capture them?
**[05:38] ---**
As long as we have their location,
we can use them in any way we want,
**[05:42] ---**
at our own convenience.
**[05:46] ---**
I only wish to serve my father.
**[05:51] ---**
How much time do you need?
**[05:53] ---**
Three hours should be enough
for my first report.
**[05:57] ---**
Use channel A37.
**[06:01] ---**
Perhaps his loyalty towards his father
is stronger than I thought.
**[06:08] ---**
That makes him easier to manipulate.
**[06:15] ---**
Well, I suppose it's time to participate
in this economic activity called war.
**[06:29] ---**
Mr. Alexei! Is this enough?
**[06:33] ---**
Ah, not too bad.
**[06:36] ---**
You're getting good at this.
**[06:38] ---**
This *is* my second time on the run.
**[06:40] ---**
All right, wait there
while I clean this fawn.
**[06:44] ---**
Not bad yourself!
**[06:45] ---**
All thanks to my survival training
when I joined the military.
**[06:49] ---**
I actually like to do
these sorts of things.
**[06:52] ---**
Good thing I borrowed a knife and seasonings
from a vacation house on the way.
**[06:59] ---**
Can you start the fire?
**[07:01] ---**
Try to use dry wood
to avoid too much smoke.
**[07:05] ---**
R-Right!
**[07:06] ---**
Why are you letting him take charge?!
**[07:08] ---**
Because...
**[07:13] ---**
I heard about various companies
in Europe and Africa
**[07:16] ---**
being involved in unfortunate
accidents or incidents.
**[07:21] ---**
Along with the rumors
that the NAC was behind it.
**[07:25] ---**
Are you saying Captain Brad Watt
was pulling the strings?
**[07:30] ---**
I have no proof, but based on
various circumstances, yes.
**[07:36] ---**
He worked with German and obtained Ghost.
**[07:40] ---**
Brenson Corp and TRYVECTA were attacked.
**[07:44] ---**
If he attacked those children
to monopolize the technology...
**[07:50] ---**
I'll never forgive him.
**[07:53] ---**
I see, that's why you were
so angry back there.
**[07:58] ---**
They say never judge a book by its cover,
but his tactics are nefarious.
**[08:07] ---**
And if that's the case,
we can't afford to take our time.
**[08:11] ---**
He's the one that let us go.
**[08:13] ---**
Amou!
**[08:15] ---**
Search the area and report
the current status to the main unit!
**[08:20] ---**
How'd you know?
**[08:21] ---**
Cell towers can be used as radars
if you know what to do.
**[08:25] ---**
I infiltrated the base station and...
Well, I'll spare you the details.
**[08:30] ---**
We're still ahead of them,
but they're closer to us than I thought.
**[08:35] ---**
Let's hurry. It'll be a race against time
to get to the rendezvous point.
**[08:39] ---**
Right!
**[08:44] ---**
These are units seized from the NAC
and transported units from Eurasia.
**[08:50] ---**
We also have combat vehicles
and the necessary weaponries.
**[08:53] ---**
This is great.
**[08:57] ---**
He's hesitant about this whole
"yesterday's enemy is today's friend" situation.
**[09:04] ---**
I get it.
**[09:08] ---**
Politics aren't my thing.
**[09:10] ---**
It's a lot easier for me to be
out there in the frontlines.
**[09:13] ---**
I don't even want to be a pivotal member
of the New Japan government.
**[09:17] ---**
I want to be one of the foundation stones.
**[09:20] ---**
I believe we can pave the way for
the future if we can build on top of it.
**[09:28] ---**
In the military, the success of a mission
relies on building a consensus.
**[09:34] ---**
People who know their strengths
and weaknesses are strong.
**[09:40] ---**
It seems we chose the right partner
to found the NJCO.
**[09:49] ---**
I'm honored.
**[09:56] ---**
Captain Miller,
**[09:57] ---**
four platoons of unmanned AMAIM
reinforcements have arrived.
**[10:02] ---**
What about the right of command?
**[10:03] ---**
It's already been transferred to us,
with the codes already entered.
**[10:06] ---**
Good. Allocate the platoons
from team three to six.
**[10:11] ---**
If they're on the move,
they'll leave tracks.
**[10:14] ---**
We can calculate their location
based on their speed and direction.
**[10:18] ---**
Surround them.
We're going to hunt them down.
**[10:20] ---**
What should we do with
Captain Watt's troops?
**[10:23] ---**
He's just a reserve force.
Ignore him for now.
**[10:27] ---**
He's making his move.
**[10:29] ---**
Eight platoons for a couple of escapees
seems a bit of an overkill.
**[10:35] ---**
What do you think Captain Miller will do?
**[10:37] ---**
Well, if I were him,
I'd flush the enemy out first.
**[10:44] ---**
Fire!
**[10:51] ---**
Th-They're firing at us!
**[10:52] ---**
It's just to intimidate us! Keep moving,
they're not actually trying to hit us!
**[10:57] ---**
But things are slowly
going to get worse...
**[11:03] ---**
That's tear gas! Be careful!
**[11:05] ---**
Okay!
**[11:07] ---**
Go left!
**[11:26] ---**
We've been led this way. Where's Gai?
**[11:29] ---**
I'm not getting any connection anymore...
**[11:32] ---**
We're in NAC territory.
They know the area better than us.
**[11:39] ---**
Run!
**[11:43] ---**
Target acquired!
**[11:44] ---**
This was too easy, but it is our mission.
Let's capture them.
**[12:04] ---**
Amou! Get down!
**[12:10] ---**
Are you all right?
**[12:11] ---**
Yes!
**[12:15] ---**
I'm sorry for the wait,
Lieutenant Colonel.
**[12:18] ---**
You never fail me.
**[12:22] ---**
Using the advance team's relay,
Gai's successfully reconnected with Amou.
**[12:29] ---**
However, they're now engaged with
the North American military.
**[12:34] ---**
They won't last long.
You need to get there now.
**[12:38] ---**
Roger that.
**[12:39] ---**
We'll provide data analysis and strategic
plans to support Masaki and his team.
**[12:44] ---**
So will I. I may not be there,
but I can help.
**[12:47] ---**
I can at least do that much.
**[12:49] ---**
Thanks.
**[12:50] ---**
This is frustrating,
not being there with them.
**[12:53] ---**
You went into the battle
by yourself last time.
**[12:57] ---**
Jogan still needs work.
And besides, we're too far away.
**[13:02] ---**
Right now, we just have to wait.
**[13:12] ---**
What's the plan? You basically jumped
into the enemy encirclement.
**[13:17] ---**
We'll break through from one point!
**[13:19] ---**
Captain Kumai and his backup team
will arrive from the route we came from!
**[13:23] ---**
We need to join them!
**[13:25] ---**
That's our only way.
**[13:26] ---**
The enemy's firing!
Your six o'clock, R23, L15!
**[13:30] ---**
Got it!
**[13:36] ---**
For such a small group,
they're impressive.
**[13:39] ---**
However, the encirclement
is nearly complete.
**[13:44] ---**
The enemy's advancing
faster than expected!
**[13:46] ---**
They must've changed their leg settings.
**[13:48] ---**
Enemy approaching from R03!
**[13:50] ---**
From our back, too!
**[13:56] ---**
Also from the left flank and front!
**[13:59] ---**
Dammit, they've completely
got us surrounded!
**[14:02] ---**
Looks like checkmate.
**[14:09] ---**
This is the perfect scene for a true hero
to swoop in to the rescue!
**[14:15] ---**
How did it get up that high?!
**[14:17] ---**
Anti-AMAIM guided missiles, ready.
All enemy units are within range!
**[14:21] ---**
Open the hatch!
**[14:25] ---**
Fire!
**[14:32] ---**
Missiles?! Intercept them!
**[14:43] ---**
The main wing is longer.
**[14:46] ---**
Is that a backup battery
on its back, or...?
**[14:50] ---**
Multiple guided missiles,
opening the hatch now!
**[14:54] ---**
Fire!
**[15:25] ---**
Its blade is sharp.
**[15:27] ---**
Equipment we've never seen before,
and a different exterior...
**[15:31] ---**
It's gone through an upgrade.
**[15:33] ---**
This is a completely new *naginata*!
**[15:37] ---**
Amou, we sent you the map data!
Mr. Kumai and his team are there!
**[15:41] ---**
We've brought Kenbu, too!
**[15:43] ---**
Got it!
**[15:44] ---**
But not my AMAIM?
**[15:46] ---**
You're the Federation of Great Eurasia's
military representative for the NJCO!
**[15:51] ---**
Please behave accordingly!
**[15:53] ---**
I know, I was just saying.
**[15:57] ---**
Platoon three and four were taken down...!
**[16:00] ---**
With the original AMAIM
joining the battle,
**[16:02] ---**
there's a hole in the encirclement.
**[16:05] ---**
What's your next move, Captain Miller?
**[16:09] ---**
Continue attacking!
**[16:13] ---**
Amou, Kenbu's in the vehicle behind us!
**[16:16] ---**
I'll also join the fight in an AMAIM!
**[16:18] ---**
Understood!
**[16:22] ---**
--Captain!
--I know.
**[16:27] ---**
I'll advance our troops.
**[16:30] ---**
Backup troops from the south side...
Be careful, my princess!
**[16:34] ---**
Yup!
**[16:35] ---**
Retreat the combat vehicle
currently deployed!
**[16:38] ---**
Transport Lieutenant Colonel
to safety is top priority!
**[16:43] ---**
Dahlia!
**[16:45] ---**
An ambush?!
**[16:57] ---**
First Lieutenant Lvov, get back!
**[16:59] ---**
Lieutenant Masaki?!
**[17:16] ---**
Losing a leg won't stop me!
**[17:31] ---**
Masaki, get out of there now!
**[17:34] ---**
Roger that, I'm on it--
**[17:44] ---**
What?
**[17:50] ---**
Masaki...
**[17:53] ---**
One enemy unit down.
**[17:55] ---**
The first pursuit group
and the reinforcements
**[17:57] ---**
are continuing their attacks.
**[18:00] ---**
It's risky.
**[18:02] ---**
How do you mean?
**[18:03] ---**
Look. The vehicle with the fugitives
is leaving the front lines.
**[18:10] ---**
They're changing tactics.
**[18:13] ---**
If he takes this change lightly...
**[18:20] ---**
Amou...
**[18:22] ---**
I know. I'm fine.
**[18:27] ---**
I know...!
**[18:40] ---**
My princess, can you continue?
**[18:43] ---**
Yes...
**[18:48] ---**
Yes, I can.
**[19:01] ---**
Shion, Amou, don't get too far ahead!
**[19:04] ---**
If we can push them back just a little,
that's enough!
**[19:06] ---**
--Yes, sir!
--Roger that!
**[19:08] ---**
The platoon on the left flank
has been destroyed!
**[19:10] ---**
Captain Miller. I advise you to
stop all combat and retreat.
**[19:15] ---**
We don't have enough forces
to pursue them.
**[19:19] ---**
Additionally, original AMAIMs are highly
experienced in fighting large numbers.
**[19:25] ---**
I've come to the same decision myself.
**[19:27] ---**
All units, fall back. Initiate plan B3!
**[19:31] ---**
Roger that.
**[19:37] ---**
I'm not picking up any enemy units.
Looks like they've retreated.
**[19:45] ---**
You're safe now.
**[19:49] ---**
Mr. Masaki's KIA?!
**[19:52] ---**
There's no mistake...
**[19:58] ---**
Dammit!
**[20:02] ---**
I apologize.
**[20:05] ---**
To save my second-in-command,
your comrade--
**[20:09] ---**
Nothing for you to be sorry for,
Lieutenant Colonel.
**[20:12] ---**
We're always prepared to die.
**[20:16] ---**
And that's how wars go.
**[20:21] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[20:23] ---**
Kumai, how're Amou and Shion doing?
**[20:27] ---**
They're keeping it together,
but they do seem a little despondent...
**[20:32] ---**
There may still be enemies around.
**[20:34] ---**
Tell them to stay alert
and come home safely.
**[20:38] ---**
Understood.
**[20:50] ---**
I know this is war, but...
**[20:56] ---**
So you've failed.
**[20:58] ---**
I'm sorry, sir.
**[21:00] ---**
It's fine. What's important is that
they reacted with hostile actions.
**[21:05] ---**
Now we have a valid excuse
to invade the Hokuriku region.
**[21:10] ---**
Yes, we'll send an armada
for our next mission.
**[21:16] ---**
You and your troops will also be deployed.
**[21:25] ---**
Now, I can take the completed Brady
Phantom and fight to my heart's content.
**[21:41] ---**
We can finally go to New Japan.
**[21:43] ---**
Yeah.
**[21:44] ---**
Okay, Gashin, get in!
**[22:06] ---**
Amou...
**[22:18] ---**
"Episode 22: Fugitives"
**[23:50] ---**
"Next on *AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline*"
**[23:51] ---**
How're Amou and the others holding up?
**[23:54] ---**
They're feeling down...
**[23:55] ---**
I don't blame them.
It's even impacting me.
**[23:58] ---**
Even if war and death go hand in hand...
**[24:01] ---**
The North American military
is making their move.
**[24:04] ---**
They're coming for us... I just know it!
**[24:06] ---**
We know what we have to do.

**[00:07] ---**
What did you think,
Second Lieutenant Louis?
**[00:10] ---**
Did the captain act suspiciously
during the op?
**[00:14] ---**
No, not really...
**[00:16] ---**
He seemed to be a little more
on the defensive, but...
**[00:19] ---**
Just don't get ahead of yourself too much.
**[00:22] ---**
Pike Davis' whereabouts
are still unknown, as well.
**[00:25] ---**
You must be patient.
**[00:28] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[00:43] ---**
In the wake of Congressman
Roy Walker's assassination attempt,
**[00:48] ---**
the NAC will be launching a large-scale
attack on the Hokuriku region.
**[00:52] ---**
So far, so good for Deputy Commander
Spears and Captain Watt, I suppose.
**[00:58] ---**
I shall be very busy.
**[01:03] ---**
Rats?
**[01:04] ---**
It seems I have a trespasser
looking into my location.
**[01:32] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[02:55] ---**
We're glad you're safe,
Lieutenant Colonel Zelenoy.
**[02:58] ---**
You too, Amou.
**[02:59] ---**
Unfortunately, we cannot
celebrate just yet...
**[03:03] ---**
Misuzu and Gashin
have just arrived, as well.
**[03:09] ---**
Maki Misuzu and Tezuka Gashin,
reporting for duty.
**[03:18] ---**
May I have a moment,
Lieutenant Colonel Zelenoy?
**[03:21] ---**
Of course.
**[03:22] ---**
You, too, Misuzu.
**[03:24] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[03:25] ---**
You two must be tired. Get some rest.
**[03:30] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[03:31] ---**
Hey, give me a hand.
**[03:33] ---**
No, not that one.
**[03:34] ---**
--Hey, thanks.
--Be careful.
**[03:37] ---**
Everyone's carrying on like usual.
**[03:40] ---**
Of course, they are. We don't know when
the North American military will attack.
**[03:44] ---**
I'm sure they're keeping
their emotions bottled up...
**[03:48] ---**
Just like I am.
**[03:52] ---**
You know, back there, I couldn't cry.
**[04:00] ---**
Don't get me wrong. I was shocked,
just like that time with you, Amou.
**[04:04] ---**
But there was a part of me that was calm.
**[04:08] ---**
My thoughts were running
all over the place,
**[04:10] ---**
but it was like another
part of me was watching
**[04:15] ---**
and thinking "I have to protect them.
I have to defeat the enemies."
**[04:27] ---**
I pushed Mr. Masaki's death
to the corner of my mind...
**[04:32] ---**
How could I?!
**[04:36] ---**
Shion...
**[04:38] ---**
Mr. Masaki would've kicked our butts
if we lost it during battle.
**[04:44] ---**
He would've said,
"Now's not the time! Fight back!"
**[04:49] ---**
We can grieve after the dust settles.
**[04:52] ---**
So you did the right thing.
**[05:11] ---**
With this incident, the NAC
has an excuse to fight us now.
**[05:16] ---**
I have no doubt they'll launch
a large-scale attack on us next time.
**[05:20] ---**
I agree.
**[05:21] ---**
We'll request reinforcements.
**[05:24] ---**
As much as I hate to
play into the enemy's hands...
**[05:27] ---**
Yes...
**[05:28] ---**
They'll likely deploy a unit
with Ghost installed,
**[05:30] ---**
as well as units with
tactical AIs based off of Ghost.
**[05:35] ---**
AMAIM with Ghost will be a pain.
**[05:38] ---**
That AMAIM, huh?
**[05:40] ---**
You know it?
**[05:41] ---**
Yes... I've fought it before.
**[05:44] ---**
I've asked Misuzu to work on AI
improvements to level the playing field.
**[05:48] ---**
I'll send you the combat data
from my battle.
**[05:51] ---**
Thank you!
**[05:52] ---**
Of course. We're on the same team,
fighting the same threat.
**[06:14] ---**
Thank you for coming all the way
down here, Commander in Chief Freeman.
**[06:18] ---**
It wasn't that long of a flight.
**[06:21] ---**
Anyway, I reviewed the data of
the AMAIM with Ghost you had installed.
**[06:28] ---**
Not bad.
**[06:31] ---**
The development of the new tactical AI
is coming along as well.
**[06:36] ---**
I look forward to its completion.
**[06:39] ---**
Yes... You'll be seeing them soon.
**[06:54] ---**
Captain.
**[06:56] ---**
U-Um, we can do that...
**[06:59] ---**
No, I want to do it. Let me do it.
**[07:07] ---**
I understand. I'll leave you to it then.
**[07:14] ---**
"Masaki"
**[07:20] ---**
Is that Masaki's belongings?
**[07:25] ---**
If it's all right,
could you add this, too?
**[07:27] ---**
I heard it was his favorite...
**[07:30] ---**
Sweet olives...?
**[07:32] ---**
They're not in season...
It must've been hard to find.
**[07:57] ---**
Pike Davis?
**[08:11] ---**
Wh-Who are you people?!
**[08:25] ---**
Hey, bring the cables over here!
**[08:28] ---**
Chief's got her hands full
with AI development!
**[08:30] ---**
That means we have to step up
and do a thorough job!
**[08:33] ---**
Right!
**[08:34] ---**
Don't worry! We'll ask Chief
to check our work if we're unsure!
**[08:40] ---**
He just ruined the moment...
**[08:49] ---**
Hello, this is Maki.
**[08:51] ---**
I'm sorry to bother you,
but do you have a moment?
**[08:56] ---**
You want ARES' help?
**[08:58] ---**
I was hoping they'd join us
in the upcoming battle.
**[09:03] ---**
Where are they now?
**[09:05] ---**
Our contract expired a while ago,
so I'm not sure...
**[09:11] ---**
What? Right now?
**[09:12] ---**
I'm sorry. There's somewhere I have to be.
**[09:16] ---**
Of course, I'll pay the fee
for breaking the contract...
**[09:19] ---**
That's fine, but where are you going?
**[09:23] ---**
I need to set some things right.
**[09:29] ---**
I see. All right, then.
**[09:32] ---**
Would you be able to provide me with
their contact info so I can contact them?
**[09:36] ---**
Yes, I'll send it to you via email later.
**[09:40] ---**
Thank you.
**[09:54] ---**
We're in position!
**[09:55] ---**
Roger that. Everyone, prepare for combat.
**[09:57] ---**
Locks deactivated.
Are we sure he's in there?
**[10:01] ---**
We've checked all the cameras.
He hasn't moved in the last six hours.
**[10:05] ---**
Move in!
**[10:11] ---**
Clear!
**[10:20] ---**
Clear!
**[10:34] ---**
It's so easy to control
security camera feeds.
**[10:38] ---**
Surely you must know that?
**[10:57] ---**
Captain.
**[10:59] ---**
An explosion?
**[11:01] ---**
According to the Intelligence Agency,
we don't know who owned that room.
**[11:05] ---**
The bomb type suggests
the work of a professional.
**[11:09] ---**
What's he got himself into?
**[11:14] ---**
Where is he now?
**[11:15] ---**
Unknown. Since none of
the bodies match his description,
**[11:21] ---**
we believe he escaped.
**[11:27] ---**
I'm with the Public Safety Department.
**[11:30] ---**
We're going after Brad Watt.
**[11:32] ---**
He's a cunning man.
**[11:34] ---**
We don't want to spook him,
so you need to stop snooping around.
**[11:40] ---**
One wrong move,
and we'll charge you as well.
**[11:44] ---**
You've been warned.
**[11:53] ---**
Have you heard that
the Commander in Chief has arrived?
**[11:57] ---**
This is really happening.
**[11:59] ---**
We're going to be busy. Let's get ready.
**[12:05] ---**
I trust you've read through the files?
**[12:09] ---**
Primary witnesses to Congressman
Roy Walker's sniper incident have escaped,
**[12:13] ---**
exchanging fire with our pursuit group.
**[12:17] ---**
These terrorists claiming to be New Japan
**[12:20] ---**
have occupied the Hokuriku region,
gathering forces there.
**[12:24] ---**
We cannot allow this.
**[12:26] ---**
The Confederation has
given us the green light.
**[12:29] ---**
We will launch a large-scale attack
to liberate the Hokuriku region.
**[12:41] ---**
Here in Yokosuka harbor, a plethora of
AMAIMs and combat vehicles are being sent
**[12:45] ---**
from the North Pacific North American
military base to join this military operation.
**[12:49] ---**
The South Pacific and
the Indian Ocean fleets
**[12:53] ---**
are also deploying their troops.
**[12:57] ---**
Commander in Chief Freeman is--
**[12:59] ---**
This is it.
**[13:01] ---**
So far, things are going as expected.
**[13:03] ---**
The second batch of troops from our
surface fleet will be here in three hours.
**[13:08] ---**
Same goes for us.
**[13:09] ---**
Troops are in position
near the northeastern border
**[13:13] ---**
to open a supply route.
**[13:15] ---**
We're quickly arranging
the troops that have arrived.
**[13:18] ---**
We should be done by 1800.
**[13:29] ---**
I never imagined
a day like this would come.
**[13:31] ---**
Me either.
**[13:32] ---**
We, the New Japan military--
**[13:36] ---**
That's what I'd like to call ourselves,
if that's okay?
**[13:40] ---**
I have no objection.
**[13:42] ---**
No issues here.
**[13:44] ---**
We, the New Japan military,
are just a ragtag team.
**[13:47] ---**
At least, that's how
the North American military sees us.
**[13:50] ---**
Let's prove them wrong.
**[13:57] ---**
Are they still inside the simulation?
**[14:00] ---**
Just let them be.
**[14:03] ---**
They're risking their lives
a lot more than we are.
**[14:15] ---**
Not bad.
**[14:17] ---**
Yeah, but I still want to
improve a little more.
**[14:20] ---**
You gain experience by practicing more,
thereby improving your accuracy.
**[14:24] ---**
In live combat, there'll always be
uncertainties, but we've got you covered.
**[14:29] ---**
All the more reason for us
to improve. Let's keep at it!
**[14:32] ---**
There's no guarantee
our hard work will pay off,
**[14:35] ---**
but that's no excuse to not try.
**[14:38] ---**
Yup, you're right.
**[14:40] ---**
You know the saying,
"do your best and leave the rest to fate."
**[14:43] ---**
That's it!
**[14:44] ---**
Hear me out.
**[14:46] ---**
We may not be able to control fate,
but we can try improving our luck!
**[14:46] ---**
"Hachiman Shrine"
**[14:52] ---**
Ooh, sweet dumplings!
**[14:52] ---**
"Candy Apple" "Skewered Chicken"
"Sweet Dumplings"
**[14:53] ---**
"Bubble Tea" "Octopus Balls"
**[14:54] ---**
Octopus balls!
**[14:57] ---**
They all look so delicious!
**[15:00] ---**
Well, this got her spirit up.
**[15:02] ---**
Yeah.
**[15:03] ---**
Ohh.
**[15:05] ---**
So this is the torii gate. This is my
first time getting to actually see one.
**[15:20] ---**
It smells like a shrine.
**[15:21] ---**
This is kind of comforting.
**[15:23] ---**
Yeah.
**[15:27] ---**
Hey, look, look! It's me!
**[15:29] ---**
Hmm... You don't really look like them.
**[15:32] ---**
Yes, I do! I look *exactly* like them!
**[15:35] ---**
I thought you were a racoon.
**[15:36] ---**
--Huh?!
--What?!
**[15:38] ---**
Now, now...
**[15:39] ---**
"Fortune Slip"
**[15:41] ---**
Hey, my fortune is "great blessing."
**[15:42] ---**
That's great! Way to go, my princess!
**[15:45] ---**
I got "great blessing," too.
**[15:46] ---**
Things are looking good.
**[15:48] ---**
Mine is "small blessing."
Not bad but not that good...
**[15:51] ---**
What are you talking about?
It just means things are gonna look up!
**[16:15] ---**
How's it going, Charlie?
**[16:16] ---**
I've incorporated all the combat data.
**[16:19] ---**
It's going through it right now.
**[16:21] ---**
I've completely deleted all of
Ghost's backup, as requested.
**[16:26] ---**
The only copy is installed on that unit.
**[16:28] ---**
Yes, thank you.
**[16:33] ---**
This is Brad.
**[16:34] ---**
This is Raymond. We have the dates
for our next mission.
**[16:38] ---**
I see.
**[16:48] ---**
We have intel that the NAC is assembling
troops at their base near Hokuriku.
**[16:54] ---**
By dawn tomorrow,
they'll be ready to deploy.
**[16:57] ---**
Tomorrow, huh?
**[16:59] ---**
According to our PFP computer,
Murakumo, our odds of winning are 45%.
**[17:05] ---**
It's far lower than expected,
and we're at a disadvantage.
**[17:09] ---**
This is the trend over time.
**[17:13] ---**
Our odds of winning decreases
as the time goes by.
**[17:16] ---**
They have slightly more resources than us,
**[17:19] ---**
but it isn't only because of
a difference in numbers.
**[17:22] ---**
It also means their tactical AI units
shouldn't be underestimated.
**[17:28] ---**
However, this is just a forecast.
**[17:30] ---**
That's right. It's up to
us commanders to change that.
**[17:35] ---**
How's the tactical AI situation
on our side looking?
**[17:38] ---**
Misuzu has completed
the early version of it,
**[17:41] ---**
and has started the installation process.
**[17:45] ---**
She said she'll collect all data
from past and present combat,
**[17:49] ---**
giving it another update.
**[17:51] ---**
Understood.
**[17:52] ---**
How does the saying go?
"Different approach, excellent method,
**[17:55] ---**
the result crowns the work"?
**[17:58] ---**
I'm impressed, although the saying
goes a little different.
**[18:02] ---**
Is that so? Well, no matter.
**[18:08] ---**
Tomorrow's going to be a long day.
**[18:23] ---**
We're finally doing this tomorrow.
**[18:25] ---**
Yup.
**[18:30] ---**
What do you wanna do after we beat
the North American army and come back?
**[18:34] ---**
Huh? Hmm... I can't think of anything.
**[18:39] ---**
What about you, Gai?
**[18:40] ---**
First, I gotta have
that drink with Alexei.
**[18:43] ---**
I'm an AI of my word!
**[18:47] ---**
I'll study up on MR technology.
**[18:51] ---**
I wanna travel, too!
Travel all over Japan, no, the world!
**[18:56] ---**
We promised, remember?
**[18:57] ---**
Our great adventure.
**[18:58] ---**
Yup!
**[19:00] ---**
But, Gai, you can see the world digitally.
**[19:03] ---**
Oh, you just don't get it!
**[19:05] ---**
The point is that we go together!
**[19:12] ---**
Right. Then, where do you
want to go to the most?
**[19:15] ---**
Let's see... First, the North Pole.
**[19:18] ---**
That's far.
**[19:19] ---**
It'll be a piece of cake!
Just leave it to me!
**[19:22] ---**
Seriously?
**[19:23] ---**
Yeah!
**[19:27] ---**
This is the most recent
tactical AI based off of Ghost.
**[19:32] ---**
These units are going to be
completely different.
**[19:48] ---**
I'm being transferred? Now?
**[19:50] ---**
"As of today, you are being transferred
to an independent force"?
**[19:55] ---**
Why? Now, of all times?
**[19:59] ---**
Brave and loyal soldiers
of the North American military.
**[20:03] ---**
The time has come for a decisive battle.
**[20:05] ---**
We, the Confederation, have been fighting
hard to protect the autonomy of Japan,
**[20:09] ---**
and we must protect it again
from other nations and terrorists!
**[20:14] ---**
First of all, I'd like to extend
my gratitude to everyone here today.
**[20:19] ---**
Because of you, we have gotten this close
to realizing our vision of New Japan.
**[20:25] ---**
This battle marks our first obstacle
in founding New Japan.
**[20:32] ---**
The NJCO's blatant lie of peace
and their use of violence are,
**[20:37] ---**
without doubt, acts of aggression
that disrupt world peace.
**[20:42] ---**
But we can... no, we're the only ones
who can stop them.
**[20:48] ---**
Each one of you has the strength.
**[20:52] ---**
However, we're currently weak.
**[20:56] ---**
We must ask for your help.
**[21:00] ---**
Yesterday, we were pointing
our guns at each other.
**[21:04] ---**
But today, we are one army.
**[21:07] ---**
We are comrades
who have each other's backs.
**[21:10] ---**
In Japan, we call this "*enishi*,"
a destined encounter.
**[21:14] ---**
Become heroes. Prove to them
that justice is on our side!
**[21:21] ---**
We're counting on you to give it your all!
**[21:24] ---**
Today, we stand here, side by side.
**[21:27] ---**
Who do you see next to you?
**[21:35] ---**
I hope for this friendship
to last forever,
**[21:39] ---**
for the day when we can smile from
the bottom of our hearts, together.
**[21:46] ---**
Godspeed.

Yeah, I am. My hands are shaking.

Don't worry, I'll do my best
to support you!

**[00:36] ---**
Alpha block, all units in position.
**[00:39] ---**
Beta block, all units in position.
**[00:42] ---**
We've received similar reports
from the other squads.
**[00:44] ---**
We're ready for combat!
**[00:48] ---**
Commander...
**[00:49] ---**
Mm.
**[01:04] ---**
All Asian military troops are in position.
**[01:07] ---**
Same goes for the Oceanian military.
**[01:10] ---**
Eurasian military, in position.
**[01:12] ---**
We're ready.
**[01:18] ---**
Fire!
**[01:19] ---**
Open fire!
**[01:35] ---**
It's started.
**[01:36] ---**
Yeah...
**[01:53] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[03:14] ---**
Miller squad, advancing forward!
**[03:28] ---**
Louis squad, advancing forward!
**[03:40] ---**
The enemy's closing in...
**[03:44] ---**
Let's deal with the advance team first.
**[03:46] ---**
Light it up.
**[03:57] ---**
Those who manage to get past
the newly-programmed Subbota troops
**[04:01] ---**
will be destroyed by me
and my Rytsar Demon!
**[04:12] ---**
If now's not the time to gain fame,
I don't know when is!
**[04:16] ---**
Wilson squad, advancing forward!
**[04:21] ---**
As is Byrne squad!
**[04:25] ---**
All squads, initiate deployment.
**[04:27] ---**
Group 1 is in enemy contact
on the borderline.
**[04:30] ---**
They're engaging.
**[04:31] ---**
This is it.
**[04:34] ---**
A battle of this magnitude has been
unheard of in recent years.
**[04:37] ---**
How will the tide of the battle turn?
**[04:53] ---**
What's this?!
**[04:55] ---**
Their movements are different
from other Asian military units!
**[05:05] ---**
Hmm. Seems our units have
learned each other's quirks.
**[05:11] ---**
It also has a variety of
tactical patterns programmed,
**[05:15] ---**
making it possible to flexibly respond
based on the situation in battle.
**[05:19] ---**
I expect nothing less from the brilliant
woman who created the lion-dog AIs.
**[05:32] ---**
Of course, with our incomplete state,
they have the advantage...
**[05:37] ---**
But it's up to the commanders
to overturn that disadvantage!
**[05:48] ---**
Go, go! Offense is
the best form of defense!
**[05:51] ---**
Eurasian attack team 1
has defeated the enemy units.
**[05:55] ---**
Oceanian advance teams 4 and 6
have broken through the enemy lines.
**[05:59] ---**
Lieutenant Colonel Zelenoy is remarkable.
**[06:01] ---**
Our troops are also doing well, but...
**[06:05] ---**
Right...
**[06:07] ---**
Looking at the situation overall,
**[06:08] ---**
the front lines are
slowly being pushed back.
**[06:11] ---**
But a small group is
achieving astonishing results...
**[06:15] ---**
You mean Yatagarasu's three MAILeS units?
**[06:18] ---**
Right.
**[06:32] ---**
All units, advance forward!
Push back the enemy lines!
**[06:41] ---**
How are the unmanned units, Kei?
**[06:43] ---**
They're good. They move
exactly the way I tell them to.
**[06:47] ---**
Their mobility has improved as well.
**[06:50] ---**
I can't complain about
their strength, either.
**[06:52] ---**
That's good...
**[07:05] ---**
Can't sleep?
**[07:07] ---**
No, I'm just thinking...
**[07:10] ---**
If we win tomorrow's battle,
**[07:12] ---**
we can get Japan back,
even if it's just a part.
**[07:15] ---**
My dad's dream will come true.
**[07:18] ---**
I'd tell you not to put too much pressure
on yourself, but that'd be impossible.
**[07:23] ---**
I understand.
**[07:25] ---**
We'll take your condition into account
and provide support for you.
**[07:29] ---**
Thanks.
**[07:31] ---**
Enemy fire concentrating
on your right, SW212!
**[07:35] ---**
Roger that. Let's provide backup.
**[07:57] ---**
That was perfect, my princess!
**[07:58] ---**
Thanks, but it's only possible
because of you and these guys.
**[08:02] ---**
They are your loyal servants.
**[08:05] ---**
Servants...?
**[08:06] ---**
Enemy squads on
our lower right rear, 37, 30!
**[08:15] ---**
Targets acquired on all units!
**[08:16] ---**
Okay!
**[08:24] ---**
Good job, Amou. We mostly wiped out
the enemies around this area!
**[08:32] ---**
That movement...
**[08:33] ---**
Yeah, I figured it'd show up.
**[08:36] ---**
Alerts are going off in my systems!
**[08:51] ---**
There's no mistake.
That unit has Ghost installed.
**[08:57] ---**
Gashin! Ghost is here!
**[09:00] ---**
It's where Amou is, my princess!
**[09:01] ---**
Got it!
**[09:04] ---**
During the mission,
we'll each lead unmanned units
**[09:08] ---**
and fight at our designated location.
**[09:10] ---**
That's the most efficient way
to fight a large-scale battle.
**[09:14] ---**
But that changes once Ghost shows up.
**[09:21] ---**
If we don't deal with it,
it'll do major damage against us.
**[09:26] ---**
Thus, lowering our chances of winning.
**[09:28] ---**
So the three of us will
engage Ghost together.
**[09:32] ---**
Udou, Hou, and the others
have signed off on this plan.
**[09:41] ---**
Get to point 366, 384!
**[09:43] ---**
Got it!
**[09:47] ---**
We've seen your aerial
maneuvers multiple times!
**[09:50] ---**
You're not getting past us to go help him!
**[09:58] ---**
I have no intentions of
helping the captain,
**[10:00] ---**
but it's a soldier's duty
to see the mission through...!
**[10:06] ---**
Kenbu is engaging in battle with
an AMAIM with Ghost likely installed.
**[10:10] ---**
Tezuka squad and Shishibe squad
are unable to provide backup.
**[10:13] ---**
Front lines are still being pushed back!
**[10:15] ---**
As expected, they brought Ghost in.
**[10:19] ---**
I need to stop it, no matter what...!
**[10:37] ---**
It seems we have all the players in place.
**[10:40] ---**
My efforts to get this stage ready
are finally paying off.
**[10:46] ---**
A single missile will cost them
tens of thousands of dollars.
**[10:50] ---**
Honestly... It's like a circus show
put on by idiots.
**[10:55] ---**
Would you like to join me and watch?
**[10:58] ---**
Although, I don't remember
inviting you, Mr. Dialo.
**[11:05] ---**
Such an outdated gun model...
**[11:13] ---**
Keep your guard up, Amou.
**[11:15] ---**
I know.
**[11:30] ---**
Why is it moving like that?!
Is it an unmanned unit?!
**[11:33] ---**
Watch out!
**[11:41] ---**
Gai?!
**[11:43] ---**
Can you hear me, Shiiba Amou?
**[11:46] ---**
This voice...
**[11:47] ---**
Ghost managed to hack into
our communication line...!
**[11:53] ---**
Our fight has just started.
**[11:55] ---**
Now, show me the time of my life.
**[11:59] ---**
The time of your life?!
**[12:01] ---**
Quit fooling around!
I'm cutting the communication!
**[12:03] ---**
Wait!
**[12:07] ---**
Is this Captain Brad Watt
piloting that unit?
**[12:11] ---**
That's right.
**[12:13] ---**
You obtained Ghost
by teaming up with German?
**[12:17] ---**
That's right.
**[12:20] ---**
Did you also order the attack
on TRYVECTA's backup facility?
**[12:29] ---**
So what if I did?
**[12:50] ---**
Amou! Your pulse and
blood pressure are increasing!
**[12:53] ---**
Calm down!
**[12:55] ---**
I'm going to take you down.
**[12:57] ---**
You're going to pay for your sins!
**[13:02] ---**
Bring it on.
**[13:07] ---**
The enemy has an endless
supply of reinforcements.
**[13:10] ---**
Don't rush and don't get caught off guard.
**[13:13] ---**
Yup, I'm good.
**[13:15] ---**
After all, I have a promise to keep.
**[13:22] ---**
I think you've already heard about it,
**[13:24] ---**
but there's likely going to be
a battle tomorrow. I'll take part in it.
**[13:30] ---**
We're going to win this.
**[13:32] ---**
We'll get Japan back,
and bring back Himeno ware.
**[13:38] ---**
Hello?
**[13:41] ---**
Grandpa?
**[13:44] ---**
Shion...
**[13:46] ---**
Yes.
**[13:47] ---**
Just... Just come back safely...
**[13:57] ---**
Okay...
**[14:03] ---**
I'm going to make it back
and see Grandpa and everyone.
**[14:07] ---**
I want to live with them again.
**[14:09] ---**
Let's do this!
**[14:25] ---**
All shots hit their marks!
**[14:27] ---**
Release the empty missile containers!
**[14:29] ---**
On it!
**[14:34] ---**
--We did it!
--In front of you!
**[14:42] ---**
We're not gonna fall for the same attack!
**[14:57] ---**
The enemy troops have
entered the set location!
**[14:59] ---**
W27, ready to fire!
**[15:02] ---**
Roger that! Let's wipe them out with this!
**[15:24] ---**
Heavy armor units, advance forward!
**[15:27] ---**
Don't aim for the actual AMAIM,
**[15:30] ---**
but its surrounding
and the slope under it!
**[15:34] ---**
Its equipment isn't designed
for mobility at all.
**[15:37] ---**
If it loses its footing,
we can neutralize it!
**[15:40] ---**
Get rid of the Gatling gun!
We're going to fall all the way down!
**[15:43] ---**
Got it!
**[15:55] ---**
It's so powerful...
**[15:57] ---**
It turned off its limiters again...
**[15:59] ---**
Not according to the detection data.
**[16:03] ---**
Cutting off the limiters
is a double-edged sword.
**[16:05] ---**
It gives you explosive power,
but your energy depletes quicker.
**[16:10] ---**
It's not fit for a large-scale
battle like this one!
**[16:13] ---**
Then, how?!
**[16:14] ---**
I think the pilot's set the safety
mechanisms down to the bare minimum.
**[16:18] ---**
Things like shock absorber
and counter cushion...
**[16:21] ---**
And he's re-allocating everything to
computer resources and control output!
**[16:26] ---**
But that means the pilot inside will...!
**[16:28] ---**
He's either not afraid to die,
or a maniac.
**[16:32] ---**
Either way, he won't make it
through this unharmed!
**[16:37] ---**
Think they figured it out by now?
**[16:40] ---**
Delivering one attack drains me
physically and mentally.
**[16:46] ---**
But I'm still going to ride this AMAIM.
**[16:49] ---**
I'm going to fight in this AMAIM!
**[16:51] ---**
I've been waiting for this moment!
**[16:55] ---**
Putting my life on the line!
**[17:09] ---**
Gai!
**[17:11] ---**
D-Don't worry...
**[17:14] ---**
Just a little power surge on the unit...
**[17:20] ---**
Gai, turn off the safety
mechanism for the cockpit.
**[17:24] ---**
What?!
**[17:24] ---**
This is the only way!
**[17:26] ---**
Don't be stupid!
**[17:27] ---**
It's not even designed to be
turned off! It can't be done!
**[17:30] ---**
But then what?!
**[17:30] ---**
I'm not gonna go through
what I did at the Oki Islands!
**[17:41] ---**
At the time, I was willing
to die with you.
**[17:46] ---**
But when I found out
that you were alive...
**[17:51] ---**
...I was happy.
**[17:55] ---**
That's why...
**[17:58] ---**
That's why I'm going to protect you,
no matter what!
**[18:07] ---**
Gai...
**[18:09] ---**
Jogan and Reiki are both unable to pull
themselves away from the enemy squads!
**[18:13] ---**
Kenbu is still fighting Ghost,
accumulating heavy damage!
**[18:17] ---**
Send in nearby troops as backup!
**[18:19] ---**
We can't! All squads are
struggling to hold on as is!
**[18:23] ---**
I never thought things would
get this hairy without the MAILeS.
**[18:28] ---**
Ms. Misuzu is doing her best
to send out version updates, but...
**[18:46] ---**
Stand strong! This is a critical moment!
**[18:49] ---**
If they break through the front lines,
there'll be no stopping them!
**[19:00] ---**
I'm not done, I can still fight--
**[19:05] ---**
The Agano River defense line
has been breached.
**[19:10] ---**
Second Lieutenant Byrne, can you hear me?!
**[19:12] ---**
Yes, I can!
**[19:14] ---**
The unmanned units in my squad
have all been destroyed!
**[19:16] ---**
Let's retreat! We'll join
the rear echelon troops!
**[19:19] ---**
Copy that. Headed to
the rendezvous point--
**[19:23] ---**
Second Lieutenant Byrne?!
**[19:28] ---**
Port defense units are wiped out!
**[19:30] ---**
The enemy has taken over the port!
**[19:33] ---**
We lost contact with Oceanian squad 4, 6,
and the advance team!
**[19:36] ---**
Enemy forces have
broken through the front line!
**[19:38] ---**
The North American military has cut off
our Tohoku and Eurasia supply lines.
**[19:44] ---**
Those were two major supply lines...
**[19:46] ---**
This is bad. Supplies are still being
transported by sea, but it won't be quick.
**[19:53] ---**
Kenbu's still fighting and taking on
significantly more damage!
**[20:03] ---**
Amou, to your left!
**[20:07] ---**
Dammit!
**[20:26] ---**
A pilot is in there!
**[20:31] ---**
He's ignoring the damage to himself!
**[20:33] ---**
He's willing to pay the price
to win the war.
**[20:38] ---**
We may have incurred
more damage to our AMAIM,
**[20:41] ---**
but pilot-to-pilot,
he's more exhausted than us!
**[20:44] ---**
Which means the situation itself is even!
**[20:49] ---**
Every move I make, I feel like my bones
are screaming and I'm being gutted...
**[20:56] ---**
But I'm not done... Not yet!
**[21:12] ---**
For every hit I get in,
he hits back two or three times!
**[21:47] ---**
That was close! I'm going again!
**[21:49] ---**
Go for it!
**[21:53] ---**
Huh?
**[22:00] ---**
Gai? Gai?!
**[22:06] ---**
Gai!

Gai, I'm where I am today thanks to you.
**[23:57] ---**
You were always by my side,
and I'm grateful. You helped me so much.
**[24:03] ---**
So let's fight till the end,
with just me, Kenbu, and you, Gai!

**[00:15] ---**
I guess that's it for you.
**[00:16] ---**
Gashin!
**[00:17] ---**
My princess!
**[00:24] ---**
How disappointing.
**[00:38] ---**
Phew, just in the nick of time.
**[00:40] ---**
I'm glad we weren't too late.
**[00:42] ---**
Kei! Nayuta!
**[00:44] ---**
Gashin and Shion sent us.
**[00:46] ---**
"Go help those two out," they said.
**[00:48] ---**
Of course, we also have to
support our partners,
**[00:51] ---**
so we can't give you our full attention,
**[00:52] ---**
but we can still allocate a lot of
resources to this fight.
**[00:56] ---**
It'd be more than enough to back Gai up,
who's completely exhausted.
**[01:00] ---**
I was just taking a nap!
**[01:02] ---**
Keep telling yourself that.
**[01:03] ---**
You can't be too tired
if you can back talk.
**[01:06] ---**
Thanks.
**[01:08] ---**
Okay, let's work together
to take him down!
**[01:10] ---**
Yeah!
**[01:27] ---**
"AMAIM Warrior at the Borderline"
**[02:42] ---**
"Episode 25: Hokuriku Frontline (Part 2)"
**[02:53] ---**
The advance guards are defeated!
They're breaking through!
**[02:56] ---**
We've deployed
unmanned reinforcement units.
**[02:59] ---**
I'm transferring the command to you now.
**[03:02] ---**
Good timing, Dahlia.
**[03:03] ---**
This is exactly why you're
my second-in-command.
**[03:06] ---**
Thank you.
**[03:07] ---**
Watch out for the left flank.
**[03:08] ---**
The enemy units should be
making contact soon.
**[03:12] ---**
Nothing gets past him...
**[03:14] ---**
Deploy units to the left flank and engage!
**[03:23] ---**
I never thought assessing the situation
would take me this long without Kei.
**[03:27] ---**
It proves just how dependent I was!
**[03:29] ---**
But we're all in the same boat,
so no complaining!
**[03:34] ---**
All frontlines are still
being pushed back.
**[03:36] ---**
Oceanian teams 5 and 8 have fallen back.
**[03:38] ---**
Asian defense team 2
is requesting support!
**[03:41] ---**
Our number of units deployed
are down almost 15%.
**[03:47] ---**
You'll need to make a decision,
with the worst-case scenario in mind.
**[03:52] ---**
Do we keep going, or...?
**[03:58] ---**
I've pushed out so many upgrades,
but I still can't keep up with them.
**[04:03] ---**
Those Tactical AIs based off of Ghost...
**[04:06] ---**
They're constantly outperforming
our calculations... How can we...?
**[04:12] ---**
Ghost?
**[04:40] ---**
They have the advantage
in terms of speed and power!
**[04:43] ---**
The damage to the pilot
is less than my own.
**[04:47] ---**
And for some reason,
their reaction speed has increased!
**[04:51] ---**
Which means the conditions are the same!
**[04:52] ---**
That's what I'm talking about!
**[04:55] ---**
Northeast teams 4 and 7
have defeated the enemy troops.
**[04:58] ---**
Teams 16 through 18
have started advancing forward.
**[05:00] ---**
Brad Watt's unit is engaging the original
hand-to-hand combat type AMAIM.
**[05:05] ---**
--Looking good.
--Sir.
**[05:07] ---**
But your son, Captain Brad Watt,
seems to be fooling around a little bit.
**[05:14] ---**
Why would he only take on the original
AMAIM with such a high-performing unit?
**[05:18] ---**
Because it's the original AMAIM.
**[05:19] ---**
That unit is the only thing
that can take it on.
**[05:24] ---**
Hence the unit development
and AI research.
**[05:29] ---**
You have a point. I can't complain since
you have the results to show for it.
**[05:35] ---**
It seems the next-gen unit development
will go according to your proposal.
**[05:41] ---**
We've already started preparations.
**[05:45] ---**
It looks like Brad's having a tough time.
**[05:48] ---**
No matter. He seemed to be
snooping around my business.
**[05:53] ---**
If this goes on, they'll likely
take each other down.
**[05:58] ---**
If I can silence Brad while also
defeating the original AMAIM,
**[06:03] ---**
the tide will turn
towards us in a big way.
**[06:08] ---**
And even if we lose, he'll take the blame.
**[06:11] ---**
I have nothing to lose.
**[06:18] ---**
You're pretty persistent, aren't you?
**[06:21] ---**
Chasing me all the way here.
**[06:24] ---**
I made a promise to my team
in front of their graves!
**[06:26] ---**
That I'll make sure you pay for your sins!
**[06:28] ---**
The foreign special forces unit is nothing
more than a ragtag team, Captain Dialo.
**[06:35] ---**
If you, our lieutenant,
didn't sell us out, they'd still be alive!
**[06:39] ---**
Not only did you sell intel to the enemy,
**[06:41] ---**
but you also stole our supplies
and made a profit off of it!
**[06:44] ---**
That's how you got to where you are now!
**[06:46] ---**
Soldiers and mercenaries make money
by putting their lives on the line.
**[06:51] ---**
That's why I exchanged their lives
for money. What's so wrong with that?
**[06:56] ---**
I'll never forgive you...!
**[06:58] ---**
Then, let's cut the chitchat
and get on with it.
**[07:02] ---**
German!
**[07:03] ---**
You're so easy to rile up...
**[07:13] ---**
That's what makes you easy to manipulate.
**[07:21] ---**
People like you deserve to be
on the ground like this
**[07:26] ---**
and die pathetically.
**[07:33] ---**
Chief! Chief!
**[07:36] ---**
Hey, Chief! We got the combat data
from recovered units and...
**[07:42] ---**
I'm such an idiot!
**[07:44] ---**
I was too focused on trying to
solve the problem, but...
**[07:47] ---**
If they've based their AIs off of Ghost,
we can follow suit!
**[07:51] ---**
Chief...
**[07:53] ---**
With a tactical AI
based off of their program...
**[07:58] ---**
Please work!
**[08:17] ---**
The unmanned units' behavior has changed!
**[08:20] ---**
This is...
**[08:25] ---**
An I-LeS based tactical AI...
**[08:29] ---**
I was hoping to see that lion dog,
but I suppose that's asking too much.
**[08:36] ---**
But the performance is excellent!
**[08:39] ---**
Let's go! It's our turn now!
**[08:41] ---**
Eurasia attack team 1
has defeated the enemy troops!
**[08:43] ---**
Friendly units are taking less hits!
**[08:45] ---**
Various areas are
pushing back the frontlines!
**[08:47] ---**
What's going on?
**[08:54] ---**
It seems your friends
are making a comeback.
**[08:59] ---**
Man, they really are stubborn.
Is it worth all this trouble?
**[09:02] ---**
Of course it is!
**[09:03] ---**
Why is that?
**[09:04] ---**
So we can get Japan back!
**[09:06] ---**
Why else?!
**[09:08] ---**
Is this channel open?
**[09:12] ---**
A place where we can live safely as
Japanese people without being afraid...
**[09:16] ---**
That's what we're fighting for!
**[09:18] ---**
That's just greed!
**[09:24] ---**
We all have it.
**[09:27] ---**
Some want money, some want happiness.
**[09:31] ---**
And this AMAIM is what I want!
**[09:35] ---**
There are those who seek power,
**[09:38] ---**
those who seek wealth...
**[09:40] ---**
But I seek violence!
**[09:45] ---**
Look around you!
**[09:47] ---**
The unmanned units are the stars of
this show, mercilessly taking lives.
**[09:51] ---**
They feel no pain!
**[09:54] ---**
To protect our soldiers' lives, they shoot
at the enemy from a safe distance.
**[09:59] ---**
It's an ugly world!
**[10:01] ---**
That's why I'm going to destroy it,
using this AMAIM!
**[10:05] ---**
This war will put on a good show!
**[10:08] ---**
That's the reason why you took Ghost?!
Attacked TRYVECTA?!
**[10:12] ---**
I'll be number one, and for that, I don't
care if Japan, or the world collapses!
**[10:19] ---**
What in the world is he
yapping about on-air?
**[10:30] ---**
I'd ask what your last words are,
but my hearing's shot from just now.
**[10:35] ---**
Not that there's a need to hear it.
**[10:44] ---**
When we soldiers die,
we just become body counts in war.
**[10:50] ---**
How could you say that...?
**[10:52] ---**
It's the same for the population,
birth rates, and death rates!
**[10:55] ---**
They're just numbers!
**[10:57] ---**
The will of an individual doesn't matter!
**[11:01] ---**
You're wrong! I changed when I met Gai!
**[11:07] ---**
Amou...
**[11:08] ---**
We went to different places,
**[11:09] ---**
and met different people.
**[11:11] ---**
Warm people, kind people,
each one of them living their lives.
**[11:16] ---**
I have comrades, I made friends,
and it made me happy.
**[11:21] ---**
Amou...
**[11:22] ---**
I just want everyone to be happy!
**[11:26] ---**
Amou...
**[11:29] ---**
Isn't it the same for you guys?!
**[11:32] ---**
Gai was always by my side.
**[11:36] ---**
When I was happy...
**[11:38] ---**
...and when I was sad!
**[11:43] ---**
Gai was happy with me and
suffered through the pain with me.
**[11:46] ---**
Gai comforted me so many times!
**[11:52] ---**
We aren't just numbers!
**[11:54] ---**
Gai was right there by my side!
**[11:56] ---**
But that's how the world is!
**[11:59] ---**
But then...
**[12:01] ---**
Then the AIs are
more human than we are!
**[12:12] ---**
Stop this nonsense from airing, now!
**[12:17] ---**
I'm sorry to bother you,
Deputy Commander Spears.
**[12:21] ---**
I'm with the Public Safety Department.
**[12:23] ---**
Energy levels are low, output's down
by 35%, rerouting now.
**[12:28] ---**
The armor's reaching its limit, too!
We can maybe take one more hit.
**[12:33] ---**
Let's do our special move, Gai!
**[12:36] ---**
We'll put everything we've got
into this attack.
**[12:39] ---**
And it only accepts audio input.
**[12:44] ---**
Jeez, twist my arm, why don't you?
**[12:50] ---**
Let's do it, Amou!
**[12:52] ---**
Yeah!
**[12:53] ---**
Go!
**[13:00] ---**
Bardiche Breaker!
**[13:22] ---**
Looks like this is it.
**[13:25] ---**
Your technology is
too far advanced, Ghost.
**[13:29] ---**
Your time ends here, with me.
**[13:32] ---**
I'm gonna take you down with me.
I don't wanna hear you complain.
**[13:53] ---**
We did it... We did it, Gai!
**[13:59] ---**
Gai...?
**[14:09] ---**
Gai?!
**[14:12] ---**
This is a joke, right?
**[14:15] ---**
Gai...
**[14:35] ---**
No...
**[14:39] ---**
Gai...
**[14:53] ---**
Gai!
**[15:10] ---**
It's only been a week since the battle,
and life is back to normal already.
**[15:14] ---**
That's just how things work. Look.
**[15:19] ---**
The NAC and NJCO have started
their peace negotiations.
**[15:24] ---**
They still need to iron out
the details, but...
**[15:27] ---**
After this ordeal, Commander in Chief
Edgar Freeman has resigned.
**[15:31] ---**
With all that's happened, I don't think
there was any other way.
**[15:35] ---**
Anyway, I'm surprised you accepted.
**[15:37] ---**
The supervisory position?
**[15:39] ---**
I thought you wanted to
return to your home country.
**[15:42] ---**
I've grown attached to the NJCO.
**[15:45] ---**
Besides, this may come as a surprise,
but I love Japanese saké and *shochu*.
**[16:02] ---**
Second Lieutenant...
**[16:04] ---**
So this was your driving motivation.
**[16:09] ---**
Deputy Commander Spears' breach of trust
and misuse of military funds.
**[16:14] ---**
The "other arrested party" mentioned
in this article is German, isn't it?
**[16:20] ---**
I only became aware of my father's
wrongdoing some time ago.
**[16:25] ---**
I was torn about what to do...
**[16:29] ---**
But I couldn't let him get away with it,
because we're family.
**[16:34] ---**
I started working with
the Public Safety Department early on.
**[16:38] ---**
They gave me the intel about
Congressman Roy Walker and Pike Davis.
**[16:43] ---**
That's why you threatened them.
**[16:46] ---**
I had a hunch there was going to be
an assassination attempt
**[16:49] ---**
in order to force
the congressmen into submission.
**[16:52] ---**
A sniper would take the shot,
but it wouldn't be a kill-shot.
**[16:56] ---**
I used the war he wanted
to start against him
**[17:00] ---**
to drive him into a corner.
**[17:04] ---**
He's bound to make a mistake during
a large-scale mission like that.
**[17:07] ---**
I know I'm terrible...
I could've stopped the whole thing.
**[17:11] ---**
The Deputy Commander had already
completed his behind-the-scenes work.
**[17:15] ---**
You couldn't have stopped him alone.
**[17:17] ---**
Still, there were casualties.
**[17:21] ---**
That's why you wanted to die with Ghost?
**[17:28] ---**
Why did you take me off your team?
**[17:30] ---**
I wasn't sure what the charges would be,
**[17:34] ---**
and I didn't want to get you involved.
**[17:37] ---**
Ray and Charlie knew what they
were getting themselves into.
**[17:42] ---**
Stop, you're gonna pop my stitches out.
**[17:48] ---**
I'm part of the team!
**[17:50] ---**
You should trust me a little more.
**[17:54] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[17:57] ---**
Engineer Ory explained that
**[18:00] ---**
you're alive because the ejection mechanism
was triggered before the explosion.
**[18:06] ---**
Based on the combat data
they managed to retrieve,
**[18:10] ---**
it looks like it was Ghost
that activated it.
**[18:18] ---**
I see.
**[18:25] ---**
I'm glad you're alive.
**[18:34] ---**
Thank you, for not killing German.
**[18:38] ---**
Now we can get all our answers.
**[18:41] ---**
I don't think he's
going to talk willfully.
**[18:47] ---**
There was this man...
**[18:50] ---**
His parents went to war zones.
**[18:53] ---**
They were good doctors
that treated everyone,
**[18:56] ---**
regardless of their race or origin.
**[18:58] ---**
But one day, they were killed
**[19:01] ---**
by a soldier they had treated just a few
days ago, for treating an enemy soldier.
**[19:07] ---**
Ever since then, he loathed
soldiers and mercenaries,
**[19:11] ---**
for killing his parents.
**[19:13] ---**
Is that...?
**[19:18] ---**
What will you do now?
**[19:20] ---**
The NJCO has hired TRYVECTA
as an AI development organization,
**[19:25] ---**
so I'm thinking about settling down here.
**[19:28] ---**
What about you, Mr. Dialo?
**[19:29] ---**
I'm going back to HQ.
My field days are over.
**[19:33] ---**
All this action is bad for my back.
**[19:35] ---**
Oh, please!
**[19:38] ---**
Thank you.
**[19:41] ---**
Right back at you!
**[19:54] ---**
Is that for Gashin's father
and Lieutenant Masaki?
**[19:58] ---**
Yes. I finally have good news for them.
**[20:03] ---**
Yeah...
**[20:05] ---**
We're counting on you.
You're our new maintenance chief.
**[20:09] ---**
I won't let you down!
**[20:11] ---**
Besides, Ms. Misuzu is still with us
as the maintenance manager!
**[20:14] ---**
Worst case, we can ask
Ms. Misuzu to check our work!
**[20:18] ---**
Seriously?
**[20:21] ---**
I'm staying here.
**[20:23] ---**
Sure, we got Japan back,
but only a part.
**[20:27] ---**
Not the entire country.
**[20:28] ---**
The Japanese government
is still with the NAC.
**[20:31] ---**
We asked them to join us, but they won't
give us a straight answer. Pathetic.
**[20:36] ---**
I'm going back to my hometown.
**[20:38] ---**
I'll stay on as a member of NJCO,
**[20:41] ---**
but I can't bring back
Himeno ware soon enough.
**[20:45] ---**
I'll be with you
wherever you go, my princess.
**[20:48] ---**
Thanks.
**[20:51] ---**
You're really going?
**[20:53] ---**
Yeah. I promised Gai
that we'd travel together.
**[21:02] ---**
Misuzu said that the AI unit retrieved
was damaged severely.
**[21:07] ---**
She was only able to
recover the logic program.
**[21:10] ---**
It's installed in your phone.
**[21:13] ---**
She couldn't recover the memory data,
so it's like a new born baby.
**[21:18] ---**
Don't worry, leave the unit repair
to the professionals.
**[21:22] ---**
We'll help them, too!
**[21:23] ---**
I'm sorry that I--
**[21:25] ---**
Don't be sorry.
**[21:26] ---**
Ah, right. Thanks.
**[21:30] ---**
I'm going to start making
new memories with Gai again.
**[21:41] ---**
Good morning, Amou.
**[21:43] ---**
G-Good morning.
**[21:46] ---**
Today's the day. You take care, now.
**[21:49] ---**
I will. Thank you.
**[21:52] ---**
I'll see you later.
**[22:03] ---**
Hey, good morning, Gai.
**[22:07] ---**
Ga... i?
**[22:09] ---**
Yup. That's your name.
**[22:13] ---**
I'm Shiiba Amou. Nice to meet you.
**[22:17] ---**
A... mo... u?
**[22:21] ---**
**[22:23] ---**
**[23:55] ---**
"Thanks for watching!"
