SIGN    AQUARION
[01:39] (Flashback) Momohime
    I'll finish those programs
    so I can pilot Aquarion again!
[01:43] (Flashback) Momohime
    And then I'll meet Sun-kun to talk,
    and we'll protect both universes!
[01:49] (Flashback) Momohime
    Don't worry!
[01:50] (Flashback) Momohime
    Once I'm in Aquarion, it'll all work out.
[01:56] Caster
    New developments in the stabbing murder of
    a female middle school student in Enoshima.

SIGN    Middle School Girl Stabbed to Death Suspect at Large
[02:00] Caster
    Police have obtained surveillance video
[02:03] Caster
    of a female student at the same school
    who is now a person of interest.
[02:06] Caster
    They are currently attempting to locate her.
[02:12] Rimiya
    Hana-chan really did do it.
[02:18] Munakata
    Today will be the final day
    of your Element training.
[02:21] Elements
    Huh?
[02:22] Munakata
    According to DEAVA's most recent prediction,
[02:25] Munakata
    the prophesied event should occur
     within the next 72 hours.
[02:29] Okuyama
    Within 72 hours...
[02:31] Munakata
    When you finish training,
    I'd like you all to rest and wait.
[02:34] Munakata
    Otori-kun and Tsukishiro-kun,
[02:36] Munakata
    try to complete at least one program and
    then concentrate on tuning your emotions.
[02:40] Sakko
    Wait a minute.
[02:43] Sakko
    I...
[02:45] Sakko
    I'm done fighting!
[02:47] Momohime
    Sorry I'm late!
[02:50] Munakata
    Amaha-san, hurry and take your place.
[02:53] Momohime
    Sensei.
[02:54] Munakata
    What?
[02:55] Momohime
    Is the union of universes
    really Sun-kun's wish?
[02:59] Toshi
    Of course it is.
    What are you even talking about?
[03:02] Momohime
    Then Sun-kun must also know of some
    way to stop them from uniting.
[03:07] Munakata
    That isn't how it works.
    Now take your position.
[03:12] Rimiya
    It's just like it was with Ichiki-san.
[03:15] Toshi
    Yeah. It just means the universe's
    ability to self-correct is working.
[03:21] Toshi
    In other words,
    Momohime-senpai is already dead.
[03:24] Sakko
    Shut up!
[03:25] Toshi
    But it's the truth. You must know that.
[03:29] Rimiya
    Hey, what happened to you, Toshi?
[03:32] Toshi
    What do you mean?
[03:33] Rimiya
    You were never like this before.
    You were more—
[03:36] Toshi
    More of a loser?
[03:37] Rimiya
    Huh?
[03:39] Toshi
    Yeah, that's right. Making fun of
    me always came so easy to you guys.
[03:45] Toshi
    I studied like crazy
    but still got the worst grades.
[03:47] Toshi
    I never stood out in sports either.
[03:49] Toshi
    Even I kept thinking, "How the hell
    did I get into this academy anyway?"
[03:54] Toshi
    But now...
[03:56] Toshi
    I've finally found a place where I belong.
[04:00] Sakko
    Where you belong?
[04:03] Toshi
    You guys don't need to worry
    about piloting Aquarion anymore.
[04:06] Toshi
    They've got me now.
[04:08] Toshi
    But Momohime-senpai will
    keep riding no matter what.
[04:11] Toshi
    Momohime-senpai will die in battle.
[04:14] Toshi
    Then the universe's ability to self-correct
[04:17] Toshi
    will kick in and make it so she
    was killed by Hana-chan instead.
[04:19] Toshi
    That universe will survive
    because it's going to win.
[04:23] Sakko
    The one that wins survives?
[04:25] Toshi
    Isn't that what they explained to us?
[04:27] Toshi
    The ability to self-correct indicates
    which side takes priority.
[04:32] Toshi
    Basically, Momohime-senpai
    fighting and dying in battle
[04:35] Toshi
    is a necessary condition for
    our universe's victory.
[04:39] Sakko
    How can you say that?
[04:40] Toshi
    And I can't let you mess this up.
[04:43] Toshi
    That's why I took Aquarion from you.
[04:46] Sakko
    Toshi!
[04:52] Rimiya
    I don't understand your
    feelings at all, Toshi.
[04:56] Rimiya
    And I'm glad I don't.
[05:00] Sakko
    Why? Why does it have to be her?
[05:03] Momohime
    Her who?
[05:05] Sakko
    Momohime...
[05:06] Rimiya
    Sister!
[05:09] Momohime
    Wait a minute. Toshi-kun!
[05:11] Toshi
    Huh?
[05:11] Momohime
    Let me see Sun-kun!
    You can make that happen, right?
[05:15] Toshi
    Um...
[05:17] Toshi
    I told you already. He's busy right now.
[05:20] Momohime
    Then at least do something right
    now to get us back in Aquarion!
[05:24] Sakko
    No!
[05:26] Sakko
    Oh.
[05:28] Sakko
    Um...
[05:29] Momohime
    That might be the final battle!
    Let's go, guys!
[05:32] Sakko
    Don't go!
[05:32] Rimiya
    You can't go!
[05:33] Momohime
    Why not?
[05:36] Toshi
    This isn't the final battle yet.
    It's fine. I'll go instead.
[05:41] Toshi
    Momohime-senpai, you just
    wait until it's your turn.
SIGN    Satela
SIGN    Fujisawa
SIGN    Aquarion Naushizu Defeats Mythic Beast
[05:51] Caster
    Enoshima Academy's Aquarion Naushizu
    has yet again defeated a mythic beast.
[05:59] Rimiya
    Momohime-neesama...
[06:03] Rimiya
    She disappeared again after that.
    She wasn't in the dorms either.
[06:07] Toshi
    This is how it should be. Right, Sun-kun?
[06:15] Toshi
    Where in the world have you
    disappeared to, Sun-kun?
[06:24] Sakko
    Why?
[06:25] Sakko
    Why does it have to be Momohime?
[06:28] Sakko
    She tried to save our universe,
    save Toshi, save the other universe...
[06:34] Sakko
    She tried to save everyone! So why her?
[06:40] Toshi
    When Sun-kun isn't around,
    we have no idea what to do.
[06:45] Sun
    Just tune the way your
    heart tells you, Toshi.
[06:49] Toshi
    Sun-kun!
[06:52] Toshi
    Where have you been all this time?
    You just disappeared!
[06:55] Toshi
    We were all really, really...
[06:59] Toshi
    Huh?
[07:10] Toshi
    Sun-kun...
[07:23] (Flashback) Momohime
    It's okay. I'll protect you.
[07:53] Sakko
    Huh?
[07:55] Sakko
    That's that Kamisama guy who was with Hana.
[08:17] Kamisama
    How are you doing?
    Were you able to calm down a bit?
[08:22] Kamisama
    Here.
[08:23] Hana
    Thanks a bunch, Kamisama.
[08:27] Sakko
    Hana!
[08:28] Hana
    Huh? Sakko-senpai?
[08:40] Rimiya
    Huh?
[08:44] Hana
    I don't remember nothin' about that night.
[08:49] Hana
    When I came to my senses, my hands
    were all bloody, and I was running.
[09:00] (Flashback) Kamisama
    Hey! Is that...
[09:15] Kamisama
    At least I was able to
    take her here to hide.
[09:20] Hana
    I don't feel it as strong anymore.
[09:24] Hana
    The feeling that I want
    to kill Momohime-senpai.
[09:27] Hana
    Could it mean I killed someone I loved?
    Because I feel satisfied now?
[09:33] Hana
    But when I was running away,
    I coulda swore I saw Momohime-senpai.
[09:39] Sakko
    Well, yeah.
[09:41] Hana
    I wanted to go back to check but thought
    I might actually kill her, so I kept running.
[09:53] Sakko
    I won't...
[09:55] Sakko
    I won't accept a future where she's dead!
[09:58] Kamisama
    This is all a part of their plan.
[10:02] Sakko
    Huh?
[10:03] Kamisama
    They take advantage of
    people's selflessness.
[10:06] Kamisama
    They deceptively insist it is the right thing
    to do while sending people to their death.
[10:10] Kamisama
    Always, every time.
[10:13] Sakko
    What are you even talking about?
[10:15] Kamisama
    Even now, they claim to be carrying out
    the wishes of the child of the holy egg
[10:20] Kamisama
    when what they truly want
    is to rule this world.
[10:23] Sakko
    They're using Sun?
[10:25] Kamisama
    The first time I laid eyes on
    that boy was fifteen years ago.
[10:31] Kamisama
    I had been assigned to the Space
    Preservation Agency facility on the continent.
[10:41] Kamisama
    He was in a cradle made from
    the Mythic Star Stone.
[10:45] Sakko
    Mythic Star Stone?
[10:47] Kamisama
    His face seemed somehow familiar.
[10:50] Kamisama
    As if he was someone precious to me.
[10:53] Hana
    So Kamisama, you worked at
    the Space Preservation Agency?
[10:58] Kamisama
    The Space Preservation Agency is backed by
[11:00] Kamisama
    a secret organization composed only
    of members of the ruling class.
[11:05] Kamisama
    However, there was a split in ranks
    over the child of the holy egg,
[11:08] Kamisama
    and the faction that broke off
    stole the child and escaped.
[11:12] Sakko
    The World Awakening Council
    and the Space Egg Council.
[11:17] Kamisama
    I took on the task of finding
    them and returned to Japan.
[11:22] Kamisama
    But then I came to my
    senses here in Enoshima.
[11:25] Hana
    Egg, cradle, Mythic Star Stone... oh!
[11:38] Rimiya
    Sakko, where you at?
[11:41] Sakko
    It's Rimiya.
[11:43] Sakko
    Over here!
[11:52] Hana
    Sun-kun-senpai lent me this...
[11:55] Hana
    egg?
[12:21] (Flashback) Atea
    We present to our goddess,
    Mulua Satene, a new maiden and—
[12:25] (Flashback) Maluku
    Wait.
[12:28] (Flashback) Maluku
    The true cause of the goddess's
    decay has become clear.
[12:32] (Flashback) Atea
    What?
[12:38] (Flashback) Maluku
    Twenty years ago, the spring of Soma,
    only accessible by shrine maidens,
[12:42] (Flashback) Maluku
    was defiled by a blasphemer's intrusion.
[12:46] (Flashback) Maluku
    And that person was the priest
    of the moon's blessing,
[12:49] (Flashback) Maluku
    Atea!
[12:52] (Flashback) Sukuna
    I saw it myself.
[12:54] (Flashback) Sukuna
    When I was still a child, I saw you enter
     the shrine in the depths of the cave.
[13:03] (Flashback) Haida
    Huh?
[13:06] (Flashback) Atea
    Th-That was...
[13:12] (Flashback) Atea
    No!
[13:18] (Flashback) Haida
    It can't be.
[13:21] (Flashback) Maluku
    Behold!
[13:22] (Flashback) Maluku
    This is clear proof of
    the moon priest's sin!
[13:32] (Flashback) Haida
    It can't be!
[13:33] (Flashback) Haida
    Because I...
[13:36] (Flashback) Maluku
    Subdue the clan's members!
[13:51] (Flashback) Atea
    Sedona.
[13:53] (Flashback) Atea
    Haida.
[13:55] (Flashback) Atea
    Please forgive me. This is my fault.
[14:00] (Flashback) Atea
    Twenty years ago, Soma began
    to wither, much like she is today.
[14:08] (Flashback) Atea
    At the time, people believed that the god
    protecting Soma was a monstrous snake.
[14:15] (Flashback) Atea
    I made up my mind that a god that
    tortures people should itself be killed
[14:22] (Flashback) Atea
    and entered the cave.
[14:26] (Flashback) Atea
    The moment I saw her, she enchanted me,
    and I lost all will to slay her.
[14:34] (Flashback) Atea
    The goddess and I engaged
    in intimate congress.
[14:39] (Flashback) Atea
    Several days after I returned to town,
[14:42] (Flashback) Atea
    I felt the goddess's voice calling me again,
    and I returned to the shrine of Soma.
[14:49] (Flashback) Atea
    That is when, on a ledge next
    to the moon-viewing pool,
[14:53] (Flashback) Atea
    I found you, Sedona.
[14:59] (Flashback) Atea
    The world recovered.
[15:02] (Flashback) Atea
    My reverence for the goddess
    spread throughout Naacal,
[15:07] (Flashback) Atea
    and of it was born our faith.
[15:10] (Flashback) Atea
    Thus, I became the priest
    of the moon's blessing.
[15:16] (Flashback) Atea
    I do not consider my actions sinful.
[15:27] Rimiya
    Huh?
[15:30] Rimiya
    Father?
[15:31] Kamisama
    My daughter!
[15:33] Sun
    The entire story comes from a dream.
    The dream that I have inside the egg.
[15:46] Sun
    I'll take that back now, Hana-chan.
[15:53] Sakko
    Hey, Sun! If this union is your wish,
    you must know a way to stop it, right?
[15:57] Sakko
    At this rate, Momohime will...
    You've got to do something!
[16:01] Sun
    Did something happen to her?
[16:02] Sakko
    What are you talking about?
    You must know!
[16:05] Sakko
    The universe's ability to self-correct
    made it so that she's killed!
[16:10] Sun
    In fact, there is a way
    to prevent the union,
[16:14] Sun
    but somebody still must die
    to maintain the balance.
[16:37] Sakko
    Sun! Where did you go? Sun!
[16:39] Toshi
    Sun-kun was here?
    Sun-kun, please come out. Sun-kun!
[16:43] Sakko
    Huh?
[16:45] Rimiya
    Wait a minute. You didn't know
    where Sun-kun was either?
[16:49] Toshi
    I-I dunno.
[16:51] Toshi
    Anyway, we're gonna take you into custody
    for aiding and abetting a murder suspect.
[17:07] Momohime
    Is that...
[17:11] Momohime
    my father and mother?
[17:30] Takechi
    The Sun, the Moon, and Mars together?
[17:33] Takechi
    And look at how close they are!
[17:35] Saruta
    It just appears that way.
[17:38] Saruta
    As a natural phenomenon,
    it's physically impossible.
[17:41] Munakata
    When the Sun, the Moon,
    and Mars are in alignment,
[17:44] Munakata
    the melody of a new fusion
    begins to resonate.
[17:47] Munakata
    Is this what the prophecy meant?
[17:50] Operator
    All hands to battle stations.
[17:53] Operator
    Repeat, all hands to battle stations.
[17:56] Toshi
    Sensei!
[17:59] Munakata
    The final battle is upon us.
    Are you up to this?
[18:05] Momohime
    Where's Sakko? And Rimiya?
[18:08] Toshi
    Who's going to pilot?
[18:10] Saruta
    You're about to find out.
[18:29] Takechi
    A massive rift has formed
    in Fujisawa airspace!
[18:43] Momohime
    I will go!
[18:50] Sakko
    Open up! Let us out of here!
[18:59] Rimiya
    The universes are finally starting to unite.
[19:02] Sakko
    Damn it!
[19:03] Sakko
    Hey, let us out! Somebody open the door!
[19:10] Munakata
    A massive Mythic Beast has
    appeared in Fujisawa airspace.
[19:14] Munakata
    Hatano-kun, Amaha-san,
    and Okuyama-kun have been deployed.
[19:24] Munakata
    DEAVA is saying that our universe's victory
    is conditional upon her deployment and death.
[19:30] Munakata
    That's why the World Awakening Council
    took the original Aquarion away from you.
[19:36] Sakko & others
    What?
[19:40] Munakata
    Don't worry. That's the
    vice principal's signal.
[19:55] Saruta
    Restrain that man!
[20:04] Munakata
    I came to rescue you. You have to hurry.
[20:07] Sakko
    But why do this for us?
[20:13] Rimiya
    Munakata-sensei, you're
    with the Space Egg Council?
[20:16] Munakata
    This is the will of the
    child of the holy egg.
[20:18] Sakko
    Sun?
[20:20] Munakata
    Follow me. I'll take you to the hangars
    holding the original Vector Machines.
[20:31] Okuyama
    Why the hell is it so big?
[20:43] Principal
    It appears the time for us to
    use this has come as well.
[20:50] Awakening Council Member 1
    The mobilization of Momohime Amaha
[20:53] Awakening Council Member 1
    has boosted DEAVA's prediction
    of a win to 99.9 percent.
[20:58] Principal
    And we can push it to 100 percent with this,
[21:01] Principal
    the Staff of Zeus!
[21:08] Momohime
    Toshi-kun, Okuyama-kun, listen to me.
[21:11] Toshi
    What do you want?
[21:12] Momohime
    I'm going to accept all of its emotions.
[21:15] Momohime
    And then I'm gonna love it back!
[21:16] Toshi
    Huh? What are you talking about?
[21:18] Momohime
    I realized something in mythic space.
[21:21] Momohime
    The two universes aren't approaching
    to destroy each other.
[21:25] Momohime
    They're drawn to each other by love!
[21:27] Momohime
    But if they confront each other
    head-on, they'll both get hurt.
[21:31] Momohime
    That's why...
[21:38] Takechi
    The Vector Machine hangars are activated!
[21:41] Saruta
    Who the hell started up the originals?!
[21:45] Sakko
    Momohime, I'm not letting
    you die! Not a chance!
[21:49] Rimiya
    Sister, wait for us.
[21:51] Hana
    I've already decided I'm the one who
    gets to kill Momohime-senpai!

    Go, Aquarion!
[22:53] Momohime
    With the power of all of my mana,
[22:56] Momohime
    strike, arrow of love!
[23:07] Toshi
    Our union!
[23:13] Momohime

    Sister!
[23:28] Hana
    Senpai!
[23:36] Sakko
    Momohime!
