[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.

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