[03:17] Gunzou     Takao's detection range hasn't     decreased as much as I'd expected. [03:20] Shizuka     Um... [03:22] Shizuka     May I make a suggestion? [03:25] Gunzou     Go ahead. [03:26] Shizuka     Why don't we divert our course to the [03:28] Shizuka     outer sea and work our way     around Takao's territory? [03:32] Shizuka     A protracted battle will     put us at a disadvantage. [03:37] Sou     Wouldn't Takao simply reposition     itself if we do that? [03:41] Shizuka     That's true, but... [03:44] Gunzou     Iona, plot the course to Yokosuka. [03:47] Iona     Request received. [03:49] Gunzou     We are currently within     Typhoon 11's storm zone. [03:53] Gunzou     Plan A involves continuing our current course     along the Typhoon's path, then turning north, [03:57] Gunzou     avoiding detection by Takao,     and entering the Port of Yokosuka. [04:00] K     That plan's already bust. [04:02] Gunzou     That leaves us with Plan B. [04:04] ---     Leave the typhoon,     circle around Takao's picket line, [04:07] ---     and approach Yokosuka. [04:09] ---     This is Shizuka's suggestion. [04:12] ---     However, there's no guarantee     that Takao won't pursue us. [04:15] ---     Plus, it would mean that     we may arrive in Yokosuka [04:19] ---     with Takao still hot on our heels. [04:22] ---     The problem is what     the Fog will do at that point. [04:26] ---     Until now, their targets were limited [04:28] ---     to ships and aircraft that attempted     to depart for the open sea. [04:34] ---     However... [04:36] ---     Iona, what would Takao     do if a ship broke through [04:39] ---     the naval blockade and attempted to [04:42] ---     enter the Port of Yokosuka? [04:43] Iona     She would attack. [04:45] Gunzou     Even after the ship has entered port? [04:47] Iona     Probably. [04:48] Gunzou     The Admirality Code,     which is the highest order [04:51] ---     commanding the Fleet of Fog, [04:52] Gunzou     has forbidden direct attacks on     land targets for reasons unknown. [04:57] Gunzou     Is that correct, Iona? [04:58] Iona     Yes. [04:59] Gunzou     But, it permits collateral damage [05:02] ---     incurred during their attacks on ships? [05:06] Iona     That is also correct. [05:08] Gunzou     Consequently, it's likely     the Port of Yokosuka [05:11] Gunzou     will suffer damage as a result     of our being attacked. [05:14] K     We can't let that happen. [05:16] K     There are residential areas     right next to the harbor. [05:19] K     It'd be a disaster. [05:20] Gunzou     There's another factor, too. [05:23] Gunzou     The typhoon will eventually become     a tropical depression, and disperse. [05:26] Gunzou     That will significantly reduce     our chances of victory. [05:30] Sou     So we have a limited     window of opportunity. [05:33] Gunzou     That brings us to Plan C. [05:36] Gunzou     We defeat Takao here. [05:39] K     We're talking a heavy cruiser, here! [05:42] Iona     Defeat... Takao... [05:45] Gunzou     Iona, status on decoys? [05:48] Iona     Quantum communications nominal. [05:50] Iona     They'll be fine for at     least two more hours. [05:52] Gunzou     I see. [05:54] Gunzou     Iori. [05:55] Iori     Here. [05:56] Gunzou     How long can we maintain     combat-level energy outputs? [05:58] Iori     I can guarantee three minutes! [06:01] Gunzou     All right. [06:02] Gunzou     Surface, Iona. [06:04] Gunzou     Move the decoys at the     same time, as well. [06:05] Gunzou     Can you do it? [06:06] Iona     Yes. [06:07] Iona     We'll surface with the decoys. [06:09] K     We're gonna surface? [06:10] K     Are you serious? [06:11] Gunzou     I am. [06:12] Gunzou     We'll use the storm as a screen [06:14] Gunzou     and attack Takao before     it gets our bearings. [06:17] Gunzou     Start engines! [06:19] Gunzou     Output at five percent! [06:21] Iori     Starting engines.     Five percent output. [06:30] Gunzou     Graviton floats online. [06:32] Gunzou     Increase buoyancy by six from neutral. [06:34] Gunzou     Surface at slow speed! [06:35] Iona     Commencing surface. [06:37] Gunzou     Maintain level trim. [06:39] Gunzou     Go with the current. [06:40] Gunzou     Surface simultaneously with the decoys. [06:42] Gunzou     All men to battle stations! [06:47] Takao     They're on the move! [06:48] Takao     Four contacts. [06:50] Takao     Is one real, [06:52] Takao     or are they all decoys? [06:54] Takao     Whatever the case, [06:56] Takao     do they really think they can [06:57] Takao     use the storm to shield themselves     from me on the surface? [07:05] Gunzou     Iona, do you believe Takao is     already aware of our movements? [07:09] Iona     Not possible, given Takao's specs. [07:12] Gunzou     What about your Concept Comm System? [07:14] Iona     Our Concept Comm System isn't affected     by distance and interference. [07:18] K     So Takao totally knows. [07:20] Iona     All Takao knows is that I still exist. [07:25] Iona     She's not able to determine     my direction and distance. [07:29] K     All right! [07:30] K     I guess we have a chance. [07:34] Takao     I see. So that's the real 401. [07:43] Shizuka     Takao's noise levels are increasing? [07:49] Shizuka     Takao is turning about. [07:50] Sou     Have we been found? [07:52] Gunzou     Stay calm. [07:53] Gunzou     Continue to surface. [07:55] Iona     Roger, steady as she goes. [08:01] Takao     Engage. [08:20] Takao     First, I'll drop your Klein Field to     critical levels with one blow. [08:25] Gunzou     Forward torpedo tubes, standby! [08:27] Gunzou     Load tubes one through three     with low-frequency torpedoes! [08:30] K     Roger. [08:31] Gunzou     Load tube seven with a corrosive torpedo! [08:34] Gunzou     Once loading's complete, open     outer doors for all tubes! [08:36] Shizuka     What is this? [08:38] Shizuka     Captain, I'm picking up a strange noise. [08:41] Sou     It's not from the typhoon? [08:43] Shizuka     It might be... [08:45] Shizuka     but I've never heard anything like this. [08:48] K     Loading complete, doors open. [08:53] Iona     Gunzou. [08:56] Gunzou     No, it's nothing. [09:01] Takao     I won't be like Hyuuga. [09:06] Iona     Depth 15. [09:09] Takao     Hurry up to the surface, 401... [09:13] Iona     Depth 10. [09:14] Iona     Approaching surface. [09:21] Takao     That's it... [09:23] Takao     Yes, that's the way... [09:25] Iona     3 seconds till surface. [09:27] Iona     2... [09:28] Iona     1... [09:29] Iona     Surface. [09:31] Gunzou     Sidekick! [09:32] Gunzou     Hard to port! [09:33] Iona     Sidekick, hard to port. [09:49] Gunzou     Reverse floats! [09:50] Gunzou     Maximum output! [09:51] Gunzou     Crash dive! [09:51] Gunzou     Launch everything we've got! [09:53] K     Takao knows our precise location! [10:05] Takao     I missed? [10:06] Takao     But my timing for the supergravity     cannon was perfect... [10:12] Gunzou     Tubes one through three,     launch low-frequency torpedoes! [10:15] Gunzou     Detonate at will! [10:16] Gunzou     Stir up the waters! [10:17] K     Roger! [10:18] K     Seven seconds till detonation! [10:20] K     Launch! [10:25] Shizuka     Sonar detecting multiple contacts,     incoming at high speed! [10:27] Shizuka     Torpedoes! [10:28] Gunzou     Iona! [10:29] Gunzou     Use the active decoys as shields! [10:31] Iona     Understood. [10:35] Shizuka     We've lost the three decoys. [10:37] K     Low-frequency torpedo detonation in...     T minus three seconds. [10:39] Gunzou     Shizuka! Mute headphones. [10:46] Gunzou     Cut engines! [10:47] Gunzou     Enter silent running! [10:58] Takao     I've lost contact with 401? [11:16] Sou     Hull and watertight integrity nominal. [11:20] Sou     We lost a few sensors, [11:22] Sou     but currently no cause for concern. [11:24] Gunzou     Kyouhei. [11:25] K     Weapons system, vetronics nominal. [11:29] K     We can go anytime. [11:30] Gunzou     Iori. [11:31] Iori     Engine room, all systems nominal. [11:33] Gunzou     What about the Klein Field? [11:35] Iori     Oh, thanks to the close encounter     with the supergravity cannon, [11:39] Iori     it's one step away from     reaching a critical point. [11:41] Gunzou     Are we okay, Iona? [11:43] Iona     For now, yes. [11:44] Iona     But if we don't release the energy     absorbed by the Klein Field, [11:48] Iona     it will reach a saturation point and collapse. [11:52] K     If we do that, we'll announce     our location to the enemy. [11:58] Gunzou     Shizuka, analyze the sound     pattern prior to the [12:01] Gunzou     supergravity cannon     attack so that we'll be [12:04] ---     forewarned when Takao tries that again. [12:07] Shizuka     It's already been added     to the sonic database. [12:10] K     In any case, [12:11] K     I'm impressed you realized [12:13] K     that we were being targeted     by a supergravity cannon. [12:16] Gunzou     We were lucky that Takao     had such precise aim. [12:19] Gunzou     Iona, display the combat map     as it was before we surfaced. [12:23] Iona     Okay. [12:26] Gunzou     Takao kept its prow pointed     right at us the whole time. [12:30] Gunzou     That artless honesty gave it away. [12:32] Gunzou     It's as if it was Takao was announcing [12:33] Gunzou     to the world that it was targeting the 401. [12:36] K     I see. [12:37] K     If we were in Takao's place, [12:39] K     we would've pretended not to     notice until the last second. [12:42] Iori     Still, how'd Takao know where     we were with such precision? [12:48] Iori     It totally ignored the active decoys. [12:50] K     Wasn't that just, like,     dumb luck or something? [12:54] Iona     I don't think so. [12:59] Gunzou     What do you mean? [13:01] Iona     I just feel that Takao had been     watching me the whole time. [13:04] Iona     Ever since we made our move, [13:06] Iona     I feel like she never      took her eyes off of me. [13:11] K     That's a pretty vague description     coming from someone of the Fog. [13:15] Iona     I can't express it well in words. [13:17] Iona     This is the best I can do. [13:19] Gunzou     I get it, now. [13:20] K     Huh? [13:21] K     What do you mean? [13:22] Gunzou     There's no such thing [13:23] ---     as coincidence when it     comes to the Fog. [13:26] Gunzou     There's another one out there. [13:29] Gunzou     Iona, analyze the detection range     based on the cannon attack, [13:34] Gunzou     and overlay that on Takao's     known range based on her specs. [13:43] K     Hey, even a fast battleship's detection     range would be beat by that. [13:46] K     That's impossible! [13:48] Iona     It isn't impossible. [13:50] Iona     It's the truth. [13:52] K     Seriously? [13:53] Iona     Seriously. [13:56] Gunzou     In addition to this tremendous range, [13:58] Gunzou     its sonar has a resolution high enough     to distinguish us from a decoy. [14:03] Gunzou     A ship with that kind of capacity... [14:06] Sou     Must be some sort of [14:07] ---     observation submarine with     high stealth capacity. [14:10] Shizuka     But, our sonar didn't pick     up any other vessels. [14:17] Gunzou     That just means it's hiding in     the shadow of Takao's echo. [14:23] Sou     I thought Takao was stationary because     it was leery of the rough seas, [14:28] Sou     but the real reason was that     it simply couldn't move. [14:32] K     It would make sense... [14:35] K     but isn't it just a hypothesis? [14:37] Gunzou     Hypotheses exist to be proven. [14:40] Gunzou     It's now our turn to surprise the enemy. [14:42] Gunzou     Iona, we're going to use     the loot from Hyuuga. [14:45] Iona     Okay. [14:46] Iori     Wait a minute! [14:48] Iori     We've only tested it in simulations! [14:52] Iori     There's no telling how much it     might burden the system if we use it! [14:55] Gunzou     Can we do this, Iona? [14:57] Iona     It'll be okay... I think. [14:58] Iori     Iona! [14:59] K     Give it up. [15:01] K     Our captain may not look it,     but he's a gambler. [15:06] Iona     Launch. [15:22] Takao     Finally emerging from your lair, 401? [15:26] Gunzou     Thirty degrees up trim,     full speed ahead! [15:35] Gunzou     All men at battle stations! [15:41] Gunzou     Ready forward torpedo tubes. [15:43] Gunzou     Load tubes one through six     with homing torpedoes. [15:45] Gunzou     I leave the homing pattern to you! [15:46] Gunzou     Load tubes seven and eight     with corrosive torpedoes. [15:50] K     Roger that. [15:52] Gunzou     Iona, input specifications     into corrosive torpedoes. [15:54] Iona     Roger. [15:56] Gunzou     Launch tubes one through six. [16:06] Takao     Don't fall behind, 501. [16:15] Shizuka     Takao changing course to     bearing 185 at 7 knots! [16:18] K     That's damn slow! [16:20] K     Maybe it really is hiding     something, just like Gunzou said! [16:23] Gunzou     Tubes seven and eight,     launch corrosive torpedoes! [16:59] Takao     Thanatonium readings...     Corrosive torpedoes? [17:02] Takao     I won't fall for that. [17:15] Takao     The human who programmed     these torpedoes isn't half bad. [17:21] Takao     But, [17:23] ---     can you evade all of these     corrosive warheads?! [17:29] Shizuka     Takao changing course to bearing 150! [17:31] Gunzou     Iona, standby! [17:33] Iona     Understood. [17:44] Gunzou     Engine output at maximum! [17:45] Gunzou     Blow the graviton floats! [17:47] Gunzou     All hands, employ shock resistance! [17:49] Gunzou     Surface at rapid speed! [17:58] Takao     Farewell, 401. [18:06] Takao     What? [18:19] Takao     A supergravity cannon? [18:22] Takao     Why would a mere patrol     submarine have that?! [18:25] Takao     501, emergency evasive maneuvers! [18:27] Takao     Sever contacts! [18:39] K     Damn bastard was clinging to Takao [18:41] K     to look like there was only one ship! [18:43] Iona     Locked on Takao along firing axis. [18:55] Gunzou     Her Mental Model? [18:57] Gunzou     Decrease firing angle by three degrees! [18:59] Iona     Decreasing angle by three degrees. [19:01] K     But we'll miss Takao— [19:02] Gunzou     That's fine! [19:10] Shizuka     Takao's attempting to break away. [19:12] Iori     Hurry up! [19:13] Iori     I can't maintain this energy flow! [19:15] Gunzou     All hands, brace for imminent shock. [19:17] Gunzou     Fire supergravity cannon! [19:20] Iona     Firing. [19:48] Kamikage     I see. [19:50] Kamikage     401 won. [19:58] Kamikage     Impressive, Chihaya Gunzou. [20:17] Kongou     It seems you've lost. [20:21] Takao     It's just a weapon      lockdown for 24 hours. [20:24] Takao     Because... [20:24] Takao     401 was hiding a supergravity cannon. [20:28] Takao     But, why did she have that? [20:31] Kongou     They must've looted it off Hyuuga. [20:33] Kongou     Humans are very creative. [20:36] Takao     It was Hyuuga's?! [20:37] Kongou     401 and Hyuuga have     engaged in the past. [20:41] Kongou     And Hyuuga lost. [20:43] Takao     To suffer theft at the hands     of humans... how pathetic. [20:47] Kongou     And you were forced by 401 to [20:49] ---     lock your weapons and     retreat to the outer seas. [20:52] Kongou     How can you belittle Hyuuga? [20:57] Takao     I won't let them get away with this. [21:02] Kongou     This isn't like you. [21:03] Kongou     What are you thinking? [21:06] Takao     I'll be taking my leave! [21:22] Gunzou     There you are. [21:28] Gunzou     I placed quite a strain on you. [21:31] Iona     It's not a problem. [21:33] Iona     We are weapons. [21:35] Iona     Combat is our very reason for existence. [21:41] Gunzou     I see. [21:52] Kongou     And you were forced by 401 to [21:55] ---     lock your weapons and     retreat to the outer seas. [21:58] Kongou     How can you belittle Hyuuga? [22:05] Takao     Chihaya Gunzou...     why didn't you sink me? [22:28] Takao     If I had a human unit aboard, [22:32] Takao     I would also be capable of such tactics. [22:40] Takao     I, too, want that unit...

[06:31] I     Gunzou, I have a question. [06:34] G     What is it? [06:35] I     I've compared our present     surroundings with two years prior. [06:38] I     There has been a modest increase [06:41] ---     in population density and store numbers. [06:43] I     Why is that? [06:44] G     I see... [06:45] G     It must be thanks to that. [06:48] G     Because the defense     barrier was completed, [06:50] G     the residents who'd evacuated     inland came back. [06:53] I     Why? [06:55] G     Well... [06:57] G     That must be because they     like the sea, right? [07:01] I     It's illogical. [07:02] I     Compared to the inland,     the coastal areas have [07:04] I     a higher probability of incurring     damage during battles. [07:07] G     Even so, they want to be near the sea. [07:11] G     Iona, we're making a side trip. [07:14] I     Huh? [07:15] G     It's an illogical whim of sorts. [07:25] I     Gunzou, what are we     making a side trip for? [07:28] G     To visit a grave. [07:29] I     A grave? [07:31] Makie     Help! [07:37] Makie     I'm being chased by bad guys! [07:39] G     Bad guys? [07:40] Maid     Miss, you must not leave the mansion! [07:43] Makie     I don't like it there! [07:44] Makie     I'm going on a journey of freedom! [07:46] G     Bad guys... [07:48] G     You mean them? [07:53] Maid     Let's go home now, Miss. [07:54] Makie     L-Let me go! [07:55] Makie     At least let me go out whenever I want! [07:59] I     I have conducted a database     search on that girl. [08:04] G     On her? [08:05] I     She appears to be living in a     western-style mansion nearby... [08:08] I     by herself. [08:09] G     By herself? [08:10] G     But she's so young. [08:11] I     Further information, including her     family structure, is unknown. [08:15] G     It's unusual for you to take interest     in people who aren't crew members. [08:20] I     That girl... [08:25] Maint     That's the last of them. [08:27] K     Understood. [08:31] Sou     That's the last of it? [08:33] K     Yeah. [08:33] Iori     Kyouhei... [08:35] K     Hm? [08:36] Iori     Sorry. [08:37] Iori     I think we've been caught. [08:40] K     Huh?! [08:41] K     What about the navy?! [08:46] K     Sou, these guys... [08:48] Sou     Yes, they appear to be the army. [08:54] Guy     I-401 crew members, [08:56] Guy     it is our pleasure to     invite you to dinner. [09:18] G     This is a memorial for those who     died in the war against the Fog. [09:24] G     This s a cemetery for the navy. [09:27] I     "Cemetery"? [09:28] G     A place to honor [09:30] ---     the dead, and comfort their souls. [09:33] I     The dead... [09:34] I     Those who have ceased vital functions? [09:39] I     Is there any meaning in honoring the dead? [09:43] G     Meaning? [09:49] G     The meaning might be to allow [09:51] ---     those left behind to come     to terms with reality. [09:54] I     This is just a place. [09:57] G     It's humans that give meaning to places. [10:01] G     Doing so gives us peace. [10:05] I     It is meaningless. [10:07] G     Meaningless, huh? [10:10] G     Perhaps the act of seeking     meaning in meaningless acts [10:13] G     is proof that humans have evolved. [10:19] I     It's a bit similar to the "noise" that, [10:21] ---     through its copying process     and subsequent degradation, [10:23] I     activates a relentless proliferation [10:25] ---     system in order to maintain diversity. [10:35] G     The army? [10:40] Guy     You must be Captain Chihaya. [10:41] Guy     A certain gentleman seeks     an audience with you. [10:45] Guy     We would like you to come with us. [10:47] I     Gunzou, shall I neutralize them? [10:51] G     It would be rude to disturb     the slumber of the war dead. [10:55] G     We will accept the invitation. [11:10] Manager     Mr. Chihaya Gunzou, your     colleagues are waiting for you. [11:19] K     Hey, you two. [11:22] Kita     I've been waiting for you,     Chihaya Gunzou-kun. [11:27] G     You are... [11:29] G     Kita Ryoukan? [11:31] Sou     A former admiral who is now     a national diet member. [11:34] Sou     He's a political powerhouse,     thought to be the strongest contender [11:34] Shizuka     Wow... [11:35] K     Just means it's available to a select few. [11:37] Sou     to become the next prime minister. [11:39] Iori     Hey, he's right in     front of us, you know. [11:43] G     And what could someone     of such influence want with us? [11:49] Kita     Is that young lady the     mental model of 401? [11:53] G     Yes. [11:54] Kita     I see... [11:56] Kita     She looks indistinguishable     from a human being. [11:59] G     Did you invite us here so     that you could look at Iona? [12:03] Kita     Unfortunately, my hobbies do     not include taking my meals [12:06] ---     while appreciating little dolls. [12:09] Kita     Well then, allow me to get to the point. [12:13] Kita     Would you be so kind as to     return 401 to the government? [12:19] G     Unfortunately, [12:21] G     we cannot agree to that. [12:23] G     We are in the midst of a mission. [12:25] Kita     Are you referring to Kamikage? [12:28] Kita     That will not pose a problem. [12:30] G     It is not that simple. [12:32] G     Since we have accepted the task, [12:34] G     we have the responsibility     to see it through. [12:36] Kita     Responsibility, eh? [12:38] Kita     That's a word you don't often hear from     the mouth of any grown man these days. [12:44] Kita     Despite our ongoing     communications issues, [12:47] Kita     we still heard of your and     I-401's many exploits. [12:54] Kita     And in these past two years, [12:56] Kita     you have not only     survived against the Fog, [12:58] Kita     but also dealt major     blows to their fleet. [13:02] Kita     Your feats have made a     profound impression upon me. [13:05] K     Well, we're just a stingy delivery boat. [13:10] Kita     It is for that very reason [13:12] Kita     that I have come to     believe that your fates [13:14] Kita     cannot be left in 401's hands,     when her very existence [13:17] ---     is synonymous with danger. [13:20] G     Danger? [13:21] G     Do you mean from 401? [13:23] Kita     Of course. [13:24] Kita     She is of the Fog. [13:27] Kita     It is only a matter of time     before she gets out of hand. [13:31] Kita     All the more reason to     relinquish her operations [13:35] Kita     to highly trained,     experienced men who [13:37] ---     are legitimate soldiers,     wouldn't you agree? [13:41] Kita     Not to mention, there is     every possibility that a vessel [13:44] Kita     whose core is in the grips of a monster, [13:46] ---     this mental model,     may turn on us one day. [13:50] Kita     Who can rightfully believe that     such a vessel deserves our trust? [13:56] G     Trust, you say. [13:59] G     I mean no disrespect, but I disagree. [14:03] G     Isn't it you, the ones who have [14:05] ---     accomplished nothing during     the seven years following [14:07] G     the Great Naval Battle,     who do not deserve our trust? [14:11] G     Official military training and experience [14:14] G     are completely ineffective against the Fog. [14:16] G     Do you still not understand that? [14:20] G     And I cannot trust you if     you call Iona a monster. [14:27] Kita     Do you like that doll so much? [14:31] G     You still— [14:41] Kita     I was hoping it would not     prove necessary to do this. [14:55] Maya     Hey, Kongou. [14:56] Maya     Did you know that in Russia,     they put jam in their tea? [15:00] Kongou     "Jam"? [15:01] Maya     Also known as "preserves"!

[15:10] Maya     It just feels more trendy     than using these cubes. [15:14] Kongou     I have no idea what you're talking about. [15:18] Maya     What are you going to do with 401? [15:20] Kongou     I'm going to sink it. [15:21] Kongou     I have already taken steps. [15:25] Maya     Oh, so that's why you sent those two ships. [15:28] Maya     Hey, would that count as "tactics"? [15:31] Kongou     Tactics, huh? [15:33] Kongou     In the past, we pushed humanity     to the brink with sheer power. [15:38] Kongou     However, that was simply because [15:40] Kongou     we possessed unstoppable weapons     and impenetrable shields. [15:47] Kongou     Had humanity possessed     technology equal to our own, [15:49] Kongou     the Fog would have been defeated,     as tactics are a foreign concept to us. [15:52] Kongou     If so, then how can the Fog     develop a capacity for tactics? [15:57] Kongou     This was the answer. [15:59] Kongou     The limits of a human body have      developed our ability to reason, [16:02] Kongou     and reason leads to the formation of ego. [16:05] Maya     Ugh... It's too sweet. [16:08] Kongou     In concurrence with obtaining an ego, [16:10] ---     we also acquired a concept of time [16:12] Kongou     and learned how to foresee the future. [16:14] Kongou     Thus, we became capable of tactics. [16:17] Kongou     However, there is nothing more     for us to learn from humans. [16:21] Kongou     There is no further     need to observe 401. [16:24] Kongou     One might even say it would be     harmful for us to continue. [16:26] Maya     We can't end up like Takao.

[17:33] 402     Because you cut yourself off      from the concept comm system, [17:36] 402     we had no choice but to come to you. [17:39] Takao     I want to have [17:42] ---     a captain. [17:43] 400     A captain? [17:44] 402     Are you referring to Chihaya Gunzou? [17:47] Takao     He is capable of using me more     effectively than even I can. [17:51] Takao     I want to become stronger. [17:54] Takao     Hardly unreasonable for     a weapon, don't you think? [17:56] 400     And is this part of a plan of some kind? [18:01] Takao     I'll figure that out. [18:02] 402     So there is none. [18:03] 400     You left the Fog without     any plan whatsoever? [18:06] Takao     Shut up! [18:19] Takao     I won't be returning to the fleet. [18:22] Takao     I will be at Chihaya Gunzou's side. [18:24] Takao     That's fine for now, isn't it? [18:26] 400     It is sufficient. [18:27] 402     Kirishima and Haruna will     soon make contact with 401. [18:31] 402     It's too late for you to go there now. [18:33] Takao     I am not going to Yokosuka. [18:39] Takao     When I made contact with 401, [18:41] Takao     I caught a brief glimpse of a place     that looked very interesting. [18:44] Takao     I will wait for him there. [18:54] 402     That is no longer the     Takao we once knew. [18:57] 400     Yes... [18:58] 400     The Fog is about to change. [19:00] 402     We will need to continue     monitoring the situation.

[09:01] H     The torpedoes are launching     from multiple directions. [09:03] H     They were not from 401. [09:06] H     There must be semi-automated     torpedo launchers. [09:10] Kiri     Are they trying to throw us off? [09:25] I     Gunzou. [09:27] G     Yeah. [09:27] G     The real fight starts now. [09:31] H     All torpedo launchers have been neutralized. [09:34] Kiri     These toys are all she got     for letting humans on board? [09:38] Kiri     I struggle to comprehend the point. [09:40] H     However, they were effective. [09:42] H     We have lost 401's current location. [09:48] H     401's actions are unpredictable to us [09:51] H     now that she has humans aboard. [09:53] H     Both Hyuuga and Takao were defeated     because they were unable to handle that. [09:56] Kiri     Are you implying that we will     suffer the same fate as they did? [10:01] H     That's not what I mean. [10:02] H     But, were that to happen, [10:05] H     we may experience regret. [10:08] Kiri     "Regret"? [10:09] H     It expresses one's delayed vexation over     a decision made in error, apparently. [10:15] Kiri     How ridiculous. [10:16] Kiri     What meaning is there in     rejecting an decision [10:20] Kiri     after the results have come to pass? [10:23] H     I do not know. [10:24] H     But, humans apparently do so frequently. [10:28] Kiri     What nonsense. [10:30] Kiri     We are weapons. [10:32] Kiri     We should just focus on     sinking the enemy before us. [10:36] H     However... [10:38] H     Thanatonium readings straight ahead. [10:46] H     Sonar contact ahead. [10:48] H     It is too large to be a decoy. [10:51] Kiri     It must be 401. [10:53] Kiri     I guess you've given     up on hide-and-seek. [11:05] Kiri     Sink. [11:08] H     Kirishima! [11:18] Kiri     From behind?! [11:20] Kiri     But 401 is in front of us! [11:23] Kiri     What is that? [11:25] H     It's the battleship Mikasa, [11:26] H     launched in 1902. [11:29] ---     Constructed as part of the Imperial     Japanese Navy's 6-6 Fleet Plan. [11:34] ---     It sank along with Old Yokosuka City. [11:36] ---     They deceived us by scattering     active nanomaterial particles [11:40] ---     on the ship's surface. [11:46] K     Damn, it didn't work. [11:48] K     And here I thought it     was such a great idea! [11:51] Sou     In addition, our move just now     revealed our real location to them. [11:56] G     Iori, engine output at maximum. [11:58] Iori     Huh?! [11:59] G     Full speed ahead! [12:00] I     Full speed ahead. [12:01] K     What?! [12:02] K     Ahead?! [12:03] K     You want to ram into the enemy? [12:06] Kiri     They're toying with us both, Haruna. [12:11] Kiri     Good, 401. [12:14] Kiri     I've never had so much fun. [12:18] Kiri     Indeed, we are weapons. [12:20] Kiri     Our only reason for existence is     to engage and destroy the enemy. [12:25] Kiri     That's right... [12:26] Kiri     I want to sink her with my own hands. [12:29] Kiri     No matter what! [12:31] H     Kirishima's emotion emulator     values are changing rapidly. [12:35] H     This is... [12:37] Kiri     I will crush you! [12:41] Shizuka     Multiple torpedoes launched! [12:43] Shizuka     Three barrages, over sixty torpedoes total! [12:45] Shizuka     Torpedoes now hitting the water! [12:48] Shizuka     More than 120 total! [12:49] Shizuka     Still more incoming! [12:57] K     Damn, fast battleships sure     don't pull their punches! [12:59] Kiri     She's coming right at us! [13:01] Kiri     Have you gone mad, 401? [13:04] H     No, she hasn't. [13:09] Kiri     She just passed beneath us? [13:11] Kiri     Going through all that trouble     to show your back to us? [13:14] Kiri     You and your crew have some nerve. [13:16] Kiri     Whatever you've got planned... [13:18] Kiri     I'll stop you! [13:26] K     Are we really gonna survive this?! [13:28] I     Klein Field operating at 95 percent. [13:31] I     We have a 5 percent buffer. We'll be fine. [13:34] K     Isn't that already pushing it?! [13:36] I     Now. [13:37] G     Anchor the boat! [13:42] G     All hands, brace for impact! [14:02] H     No engine sounds, nor heat signature     readings can be confirmed. [14:08] H     We've lost 401. [14:26] G     Everyone all right? [14:27] I     I'm fine. [14:29] K     Ow... [14:30] K     I thought I was gonna die. [14:33] Sou     Life support systems, nominal. [14:35] Iori     And the engines survived, at least. [14:38] Shizuka     The anchor is still functional, as well. [14:40] Sou     Am I correct in assuming     that we're now in Phase 3? [14:43] G     Right. [14:44] K     Can we really win this, though? [14:47] K     The number of remaining corrosive torpedoes... [14:50] K     is two. [14:52] I     We can win. [15:01] Kiri     That wouldn't have sunk her. [15:04] Kiri     She must be buried under the rubble. [15:07] H     Why do you think that? [15:08] Kiri     It'd be too boring to have it end here. [15:12] H     "Boring," you say? [15:15] Kirshima     We'll show you who's stronger, 401... [15:17] Kirshima     You, with humans aboard, or us. [15:22] H     All right. [15:23] H     I'll join you, Kirishima. [15:29] K     Hey, something big's going down! [15:33] Shizuka     Detecting gravitons on a massive scale! [15:35] Sou     What's this sound? [15:36] I     The sea... [15:38] I     will split open. [16:11] K     Hey, what the hell is that? [16:27] K     Th-They've docked together! [16:33] Sou     So they can do this, too? [16:35] K     Hey, nobody told me about this! [16:38] G     No, we are lucky. [16:41] K     Huh?! [16:42] G     We won't have to get them one by one. [16:45] K     This guy intends to sink both of them! [16:48] Kiri     We have you now! [16:50] H     Commencing synchronization     of Energy Life Rings. [16:53] H     Compressing gravitons to degeneracy zone. [16:56] G     Iori! Engine output at maximum! [17:02] K     Resist! [17:03] K     Resist, 401! [17:06] Shizuka     Tractor beam output rising! [17:08] K     We're getting hit with two     ships' worth! This'll be tough! [17:11] Iori     I'm raising the output     on our end, too! [17:18] Kiri     Not a bad struggle you're     putting up there, 401! [17:22] H     Critical degeneracy reached in 10 percent. [17:29] Shizuka     An opening has appeared     in their Klein Field! [17:31] G     We've got them! [17:33] Kiri     Struggling won't help you! [17:35] Iona     When firing the supergravity cannon, [17:38] Iona     it is necessary to open the Klein Field in     the direction of the cannon's trajectory. [17:42] Iona     And in order to keep that much energy [17:44] ---     and spatial distortion under control, [17:46] ---     the mental models must devote almost     all of their resources to the task. [17:50] ---     Their other operations suffer as a result. [17:54] ---     That is our chance. [17:58] H     Thanatonium. [18:00] Kiri     We're not falling for that! [18:08] I     They fended it off. [18:11] H     Critical degeneracy reached. [18:19] Kiri     It's over, 401! [18:29] G     You should keep your trump card     hidden until the very end. [18:37] H     Emergency stop on supergravity     cannon launch sequence. [18:40] H     Deploying Klein Field! [18:42] Kiri     Impossible! [18:43] Kiri     Where did that come from? [18:46] Kiri     Another launcher... hidden     in Mikasa's shadows? [18:53] Kiri     401! [18:59] H     Unable to... maintain control...     on degenerate energy levels... [19:03] Kiri     Damn it! [19:04] Kiri     Can't calculate... Field deployment... in time! [19:09] H     Unable to halt... launch sequence. [19:13] H     We're... going to break... [19:17] Shizuka     Tractor beam output dropping! [19:19] Shizuka     Klein Field is down! [19:21] I     If we strike now, [19:22] I     normal warheads will be able to     deal more than enough damage. [19:25] G     Fire everything! [19:36] H     Are we... going to lose? [19:40] Kiri     This can't be happening... [19:42] Kiri     How can we... lose? [19:45] Kiri     Our specifications... [19:48] Kiri     far surpassed those of 401 in every aspect... [19:52] Kiri     And yet... [19:53] H     What is this? [19:54] H     What am I feeling? [19:56] Kiri     Haruna! [20:06] Kiri     Haruna... [20:09] Kiri     No! [20:10] Kiri     I... [20:12] Kiri     I don't want... [20:17] Kiri     ...to die yet! [20:19] H     Ah, so this is... [20:24] H     This is... [20:27] H     This is... regret! [20:51] Shizuka     There are no signs of either     Kirishima or Haruna. [20:55] Sou     We managed to pull through, [20:57] Sou     but that was very close. [20:59] G     Yeah. [21:00] G     If Kirishima and Haruna's     processing capacity [21:03] G     exceeded Iona's projections,     we would've been at risk. [21:06] K     Man, that was bad for my heart! [21:09] K     Can you try to keep the gambling      to a minimum, Captain? [21:13] G     You did well, Iona. [21:15] I     This is the first time I've sunk     ships with mental models. [21:20] G     That's true. [21:21] G     I've put you through a painful experience. [21:23] I     Painful? [21:25] I     I don't know. [21:28] I     I don't know.

[14:47] Kongou     I had been monitoring both of you. [14:49] Kongou     I am glad you survived,     even if only as a core. [14:54] Kongou     First, the two of you should     head to Sagami Bay. [14:57] Kongou     I have Maya on standby     off the shore of Kamakura. [15:00] Kiri     Wait, Kongou. [15:01] Kiri     I've found something interesting. [15:05] Kiri     I'll upload the information     to our shared network. [15:09] Kongou     The vibration warhead... [15:11] Kongou     That new torpedo the humans developed? [15:15] Kiri     Indeed. [15:16] Kiri     We are now in the residence of the project's      lead developer, Osakabe Toujuurou. [15:22] Kiri     Osakabe is deceased, [15:24] Kiri     but it may be possible for us to     retrieve some data on the new torpedo. [15:28] Kiri     I don't want to call it a way     for us to save face, but... [15:30] Kongou     Fine. [15:32] Kongou     Handle it. [15:33] Kongou     I'll order Maya to continue standing by. [15:35] ---     Then we'll begin the operation. [15:39] Kiri     Let's go, Haruna. [15:44] Kongou     Humans change their own disposition     in response to emotions. [15:48] Kongou     But, we are the Fog. [15:50] Kongou     We are merely acting     out a temporary persona. [16:08] Takao     There it is! [16:09] Takao     Iwoto! [16:10] Takao     I got here ahead of him,     just as I'd planned! [16:15] Takao     Huh? [16:19] Takao     No way! [16:20] Takao     What the hell?! [16:22] Takao     This attack algorithm... isn't human. [16:26] Takao     This is... [16:27] Takao     It can't be! [16:35] Kiri     There appears to be something [16:36] Kiri     in the basement that consumes     a great deal of energy. [16:41] Kiri     That must be where it is. [16:42] Kiri     Let's go retrieve the data. [16:50] Kiri     What? [16:51] MaidA     I was waiting for you. [16:53] MaidA     This way, please. [17:04] MaidA     Please step inside. [17:06] Kiri     H-Hey! [17:17] Kiri     What is this place? [17:30] Tou     Thank you for coming. [17:33] H     You are... [17:35] Tou     Osakabe Toujuurou, [17:38] Tou     the master of this house. [17:41] Kiri     Aren't you supposed to be dead? [17:43] Kiri     That's what human records say. [17:46] Kiri     Well, it suits us better if you're alive. [17:49] Kiri     Why don't you hand over the files on     the vibration warhead's development? [17:52] Tou     The vibration warhead? [17:54] Tou     Unfortunately, [17:56] Tou     I'm not the one who created that weapon. [18:00] Kiri     What do you mean? [18:02] H     So, it was Makie... [18:04] Tou     You noticed? [18:06] Tou     You're right. [18:08] Tou     Makie's abilities far surpass my own. [18:12] Tou     Because... [18:15] Tou     she is not human. [18:24] Tou     In the past, [18:26] Tou     I was developing weapons that     could be used against the Fog. [18:31] Tou     However, it was a series of      setbacks and failures. [18:35] Tou     I came to realize my     limitations as a human being. [18:42] Tou     So I began a certain project. [18:47] Tou     The assumption was that,     should one be unable [18:50] Tou     to achieve a necessary goal, [18:51] Tou     one must merely create a     human with supernatural ability. [18:57] Tou     The Design Child Initiative     created 109 lives. [19:07] Tou     Of them, seven were viable. [19:10] Tou     And of them, only one survived     longer than three years. [19:17] H     And that was Makie. [19:21] Tou     As a result, Makie far exceeded our     expectations with her achievements. [19:27] Tou     However, the government was indifferent. [19:30] Tou     In reality, they were afraid of her abilities... [19:34] Tou     just as they feared the Fog. [19:37] Tou     We were herded into this mansion [19:41] Tou     where we were to live under     government oversight. [19:45] Tou     You told her she was free, [19:50] Tou     but she is not allowed to     make any outside contact [19:52] Tou     and she cannot lead a normal     life for a child of her age. [19:59] Tou     Still, we were happy. [20:06] Tou     I just wanted to see her smile. [20:10] Tou     I came to love her as my own daughter. [20:15] Tou     However, [20:17] Tou     one day, the government     gave me an order. [20:21] Tou     They told me to create a Design Child     who'll serve as Makie's backup. [20:26] Tou     They had decided to discard     her as casually as they [20:29] ---     might an outdated computer. [20:35] Tou     I faked my death in an accident [20:38] Tou     and vanished from sight, along     with the data on Design Children, [20:42] Tou     so that she would remain unique. [20:47] Tou     They still need her talents in order     to fine tune the vibration warhead. [20:51] Tou     That is why she is protected. [20:55] Kiri     I don't understand. [20:57] Kiri     Why did you choose to live? [21:00] Kiri     Wouldn't it make things worse if they     ever found out about your ruse? [21:03] Tou     That is because of lingering attachment. [21:07] H     "Lingering attachment." [21:08] H     A phrase indicating regret,     inability to let go. [21:11] H     Entry tagged. Categorized. Recorded. [21:15] Tou     I wanted to watch over her     through the years... her smile. [21:20] Kiri     Humans are very selfish, aren't they? [21:24] Tou     Yes, indeed. [21:27] Tou     As you can see, I don't have long to live. [21:30] Tou     So, I'd like to ask a favor. [21:34] H     What is the favor? [21:37] Tou     Please become... friends with Makie. [21:41] Kiri     You really are selfish. [21:43] Kiri     Asking us to become her friends... [21:45] H     You're aware that I am a     mental model of the Fog? [21:48] Tou     She laughs so much when     she is with you two. [21:53] Tou     That is enough. [21:56] Tou     Please. [22:01] Makie     Haruharu... [22:10] H     Makie... [22:11] H     A friend... [22:28] Tou     As I'd feared... [22:30] Tou     Now that she has made contact     with a mental model, [22:33] ---     they will no longer let her be...

[00:59] Tou     Goodbye, Makie. [01:04] Tou     My precious daughter... SIGN    Arpeggio of Blue Steel SIGN    Friend [03:11] H     A friend... [03:19] H     We're surrounded. [03:21] Kiri     I detect heat. [03:23] Kiri     Are they after you and me? [03:24] H     No. [03:26] (Flashback) Tou     They had decided to discard     her as casually as they [03:29] (Flashback) Tou     might an outdated computer. [03:33] H     Their target... [03:35] H     is Makie. [03:43] Kamikage     It's me. [03:44] SpecOps     We have cut off all power     to the Osakabe residence. [03:47] SpecOps     We are about to move in. [03:50] Kamikage     Understood. [03:51] Kamikage     We don't know what combat power     mental models possess on their own. [03:55] Kamikage     Exercise due caution. [03:57] SpecOps     Roger. [03:58] Kamikage     This operation is singularly     focused on Osakabe Makie. [04:02] Kamikage     Keep that in mind. [04:06] Kamikage     We must prevent the     Fog from obtaining intel [04:09] Kamikage     on vibration warhead     manufacture, at all costs. [04:14] Kiri     I see. [04:16] Kiri     So they're trying to do away with     the girl before we get the intel. [04:21] H     It's very likely, given that they did     not launch an assault from the outside [04:24] H     and instead chose to     infiltrate this building. [04:26] H     They intend to take out     Makie without fail. [04:29] Kiri     They're coming straight for us. [04:31] H     The location of this     room seems to be known. [04:34] H     We don't have much time. [04:36] H     Kirishima, can I leave Makie     in your care for a while? [04:41] Kiri     Haruna, are you... [04:43] H     I'll be right back. [04:46] Trooper     We have arrived on the second floor. [04:48] CO     All right, surround the room. [04:50] CO     Secure Osakabe Makie, ASAP. [04:57] Trooper     Stay calm. [04:59] CO     You must be the mental model of     the fast battleship, Haruna. [05:02] H     That's correct. [05:04] CO     Surrender without resistance. [05:05] CO     We will guarantee your safety. [05:07] H     "Surrender without resistance"? [05:11] CO     That's right. [05:12] CO     Our only goal is to dispose     of Osakabe Makie. [05:17] CO     Calm down! [05:18] CO     It's not our intent to     engage you in combat! [05:22] H     Intent? [05:23] H     Allow me to teach you     what "intent" means. [05:32] H     This is my intent. [05:35] CO     We have no choice! Fire! [05:46] CO     What the?! [05:47] H     I am unhappy tonight. [05:51] H     Very unhappy. [05:54] Makie     No, Haruharu! [06:03] H     Makie... [06:04] CO     Osakabe Makie! [06:09] Kiri     Sorry, Haruna. [06:11] Kiri     I only took my eyes off her     for a second and she... [06:15] Makie     Haruharu. [06:16] H     Hear me out, Makie. [06:18] H     I'm... [06:20] Makie     ...a mental model of the Fog. [06:26] Makie     So it's true. [06:29] H     I'm sorry. [06:31] H     I didn't intend to deceive you. [06:42] H     Makie... [06:51] Kiri     Hah, look at her. [06:54] Kiri     When she learns Haruna is of     the Fog, she reacts like this. [06:57] Kiri     Well, I guess it's only natural. [06:59] Kiri     Humans and the Fog can     never become friends. [07:03] H     Kirishima. [07:05] Kiri     Haruna? [07:06] H     I have a favor to ask. [07:08] H     Can you protect Makie? [07:11] Kiri     Huh?! [07:12] H     I'll distract the enemy. [07:14] H     Use that chance to escape     this mansion with Makie. [07:18] Kiri     Are you... [07:20] H     We cannot put Makie in danger. [07:24] Kiri     Well, I suppose. [07:26] Kiri     We must learn how the new warhead     is manufactured from her. [07:30] H     Yes. [07:31] Kiri     All right, leave it to me. [07:33] H     Thank you. [07:41] H     I guess this is the best I can do with     the nanomaterials at my disposal. [07:57] Trooper     Osakabe Makie! [07:59] Chopper     Shrike Two, we have     visual on the target! [08:01] Chopper     Initiating attack! [08:14] Kongou     So the developer of the new warhead [08:17] Kongou     was not Osakabe Toujuurou, [08:19] Kongou     but Osakabe Makie, the last Design Child. [08:24] Kongou     Humanity fears the prospect     of the warhead's [08:26] ---     manufacturing methods     becoming known to us, [08:28] Kongou     so they have decided to     eliminate Osakabe Makie. [08:31] Maya     Man, that's so cruel. [08:35] Kongou     It appears that the new warhead is     quite the trump card for humanity. [08:43] Kongou     In any case, what is Haruna thinking? [08:46] Kongou     Why didn't she report directly to me? [08:50] CO     The mental model has fled to the     back courtyard with Osakabe Makie. [08:54] CO     We're going after them. [08:55] Trooper     Yes, sir! [09:11] Kiri     Man, why am* I *tasked with babysitting? [09:22] H     They don't let up. [09:31] H     I'll crush you. [09:32] (Flashback) H     No, Haruharu! [09:41] H     We were born as weapons. [09:44] H     Those who have lost their     lives to my cannon fire [09:47] H     probably number in the hundreds. [09:50] H     Until now, their deaths     meant nothing to me. [09:56] H     So, I can't become your     friend after all, Makie. [10:02] Kiri     Haruna. [10:05] Kiri     Haruna! Hey, can't you hear me? [10:07] Kiri     Haruna! [10:09] H     What is it? [10:10] Kiri     What's the matter? [10:11] Kiri     Is something wrong with your comm link? [10:13] H     It's fine. [10:15] H     More importantly, how is Makie doing? [10:17] H     Is she all right? [10:18] Kiri     Yeah. [10:19] Kiri     But she hasn't said a single word. [10:24] Kiri     It looks like finding out you were     with the Fog was a huge shock. [10:30] H     I... see. [10:33] Kiri     We're currently near     the front entrance. [10:34] Kiri     What should we do? [10:36] H     I'll use the decoy to concentrate      the enemy in the back courtyard. [10:40] H     Use that opportunity to get Makie     out of here via the front gates. [10:43] Kiri     Hey, this is just a suggestion, [10:45] Kiri     but why don't we ask Maya for backup     since she's offshore Kamakura? [10:48] Kiri     Her firepower would be more than     enough to take out these guys. [10:51] H     No, we can't. [10:53] Kiri     Why? [10:53] H     Maya's firepower would be enough to     obliterate the entire unit in an instant. [10:57] Kiri     Why is that a problem? [10:59] H     Makie does not wish it... [11:02] Kiri     Hey, Haruna! Hey! [11:05] Kiri     She cut me off! [11:08] Kiri     In any case, why hasn't     this girl budged at all? [11:13] Makie     Yotarou. [11:15] Makie     Do you think... Haruharu got away okay? [11:19] Kiri     Huh? [11:20] Makie     Those scary people are     probably here to get rid of me. [11:27] Makie     So as long as she stays away from     me, Haruharu should be safe. [11:32] Makie     This is all I can do for Haruharu... [11:37] Kiri     This girl... [11:39] Makie     Yotarou, a long time ago...     I made a bomb. [11:46] Makie     I didn't even know what it was. [11:50] Makie     But I knew that if I did it,     Dad would be happy. [11:55] Makie     Dad would praise me. [11:57] Makie     So I worked really hard to design the [12:02] ---     vibration warhead. [12:05] Makie     But when it was finished,     I was left all alone... [12:12] Makie     And... And you know, [12:15] Makie     that bomb was made to kill the Fog...     to kill Haruharu and her friends. [12:24] Makie     That's why... [12:28] Makie     I never deserved to become friends     with Haruharu in the first place. [12:43] OpA     All autonomous multi-ped     combat vehicles, [12:46] ---     the Rock Crabs, have been deployed. [12:49] OopB     Who knew we'd need to send these     in to neutralize a single child. [12:54] OpA     Monster... [12:55] OpB     Target the mental model     and Osakabe Makie! [12:59] OpB     Fire! [13:04] H     Not good. My processing     speed's decreased. [13:06] H     I can't maintain the decoy. [13:09] OpA     That's not Osakabe Makie! [13:16] OpB     All units, retreat! [13:18] OpA     Urgent directive to all units! [13:19] OpA     Locate the real Osakabe Makie! [13:24] H     Makie... [13:38] TrooperE     We have a message from Platoon 3. [13:40] D     Report. [13:41] E     The mental model in the     back courtyard did not, [13:43] E     in fact, have Osakabe Makie with her. [13:45] D     What's going on? [13:46] E     It was a sophisticated decoy. [13:48] Kiri     Crap... [13:50] Kiri     They figured it out! [13:54] D     I-It's Osakabe Makie! [13:57] Kiri     Damn! [14:03] Kiri     What?! [14:04] Kiri     Why's it so small?! [14:06] Kiri     Damn it! This body's not gonna cut it! [14:12] Makie     Y-Yotarou?! [14:14] Kiri     Makie, get down! [14:22] Makie     Yotarou, you can talk? [14:24] Kiri     I-I'll explain later! [14:27] Kiri     First, we need to get out of here, now! [14:30] Makie     We can't. [14:31] Makie     Did you hear what they said? [14:33] Makie     Haruharu's fighting in the back     courtyard right now, right? [14:36] Kiri     Well, that's... [14:38] Makie     We have to go help her. [14:39] Kiri     Don't be an idiot! [14:40] Makie     But! [14:42] Kiri     Do you think Haruna wants to     drag you into the fight?! [14:46] Makie     But... [14:48] OpA     Directive to all units. [14:49] OpA     We have a visual on target. [14:51] OpA     Neutralize both target     and mental model ASAP. [14:54] OpA     Repeat: neutralize ASAP. [15:03] H     I am the fast battleship Haruna of the Fog. [15:07] H     Combat is my sole reason for existing. [15:13] H     Indeed, the reason I am     trying to protect Makie [15:17] H     is to learn how vibration     warheads are made. [15:20] H     That is all. [15:33] H     And yet, why can I not kill them? [15:40] H     What is this? [15:41] H     What is this turmoil inside of me? [15:44] Makie     Haruharu! [15:48] Makie     Haruharu! [15:49] H     Makie?! [15:52] Trooper     We've found Osakabe Makie! [15:57] H     Makie! [16:01] H     No... [16:03] H     No! [16:05] H     I... [16:07] H     I don't want to lose Makie! [16:11] CO     Fire! [16:25] Makie     Haruharu?! [16:29] H     Makie, why are you here? [16:32] H     I— [16:32] Makie     No! [16:33] Makie     I still like you, Haruharu. [16:41] H     I am of the Fog. [16:44] Makie     That doesn't matter! [16:46] Makie     I don't think you'll ever forgive     me for making that bomb, but... [16:55] H     Makie... [16:59] Makie     But I don't want this. [17:01] Makie     You're my friend. [17:05] Makie     I don't want to lose my friends. [17:10] H     Makie. [17:17] Makie     Haruharu! [17:22] H     This is bad... [17:23] H     I can't discharge the absorbed      energy fast enough. [17:26] H     I don't have much nanomaterial left, either. [17:29] H     They'll break through to us     if I don't do something. [17:32] Kiri     Damn it! [17:33] Kiri     If I only at least had my physical body, [17:36] Kiri     I could smash these crabs into pieces! [17:39] H     Are we done for? [17:41] H     Am I unable to protect Makie, after all? [17:48] H     I don't care who. [17:50] H     Someone... someone, help us! [17:55] H     Help! [17:57] H     Anyone! [18:05] OpB     What?! [18:06] OpB     What's going on?

[05:13] Kongou     It seems your insight into all matters of     the universe has been honed to new heights. [05:18] I     I would like to know why     my prediction was wrong. [05:22] Kongou     Because of her. [05:24] I     The heavy cruiser, Maya. [05:25] Kongou     She harried me. [05:27] Kongou     She wanted to come to this     island without delay.

[07:44] Hyu     That's exactly why I chose to say it. [07:48] Hyu     So that's the appearance you like. [07:51] Kongou     This look was formulated in accordance with the [07:54] ---     autonomic algorithm for energy efficiency. [07:56] Kongou     It has nothing to do with my likes or dislikes. [07:58] Hyu     Oh, is that so? [08:00] G     Well, why don't we all have a seat? [08:04] Kongou     Don't tell me... [08:05] Kongou     you invited me here only to     engage in such frivolous acts?

[08:48] Kyo     We'll do what we can if that happens, I guess. [08:54] Kongou     Hyuuga, why did you decide     to form a mental model? [08:58] Hyu     Oh? Didn't I tell you before? [09:01] Kongou     I don't recall that. [09:02] Hyu     Oh, I see. [09:04] Hyu     I haven't told you. [09:06] Hyu     You know how I got all whammed and     slammed by Sister Iona and sank, right? [09:13] Takao     Onomatopoeia. [09:15] Hyu     At that moment, I thought, [09:17] Hyu     "Oh, I'm so alive!" [09:20] Kongou     Alive? [09:22] Hyu     Here you go. [09:24] Hyu     Enjoy. [09:31] Kongou     It's hot. [09:33] Kongou     Physical bodies are interesting. [09:38] Kongou     Chihaya Gunzou, tell me why     you invited me on this island. [09:42] G     I wanted to speak with you. [09:47] G     But, you may not believe me. [09:51] Kongou     Do you really mean that? [09:54] I     Gunzou always means what he says. [09:57] I     Humans value face-to-face communication. [10:02] Kongou     Meaningless sentimentalism. [10:04] Takao     But, there are things that     can't be communicated [10:06] ---     unless we meet in this manner. [10:08] Kongou     Chihaya Gunzou and 401, [10:11] Kongou     there is only one thing     I wish to communicate. [10:15] Kongou     I have determined that I     will eradicate all of you. [10:19] Kongou     I only responded to the invitation     so that I could tell you directly. [10:26] G     Even so, I still wish to speak with you. [10:31] Kongou     Why? [10:33] G     We are the ones placed at a     disadvantage by this meeting, [10:36] G     whereas you have nothing to lose by it. [10:43] Kongou     That is an interesting perspective. [10:46] G     We have been entrusted with a certain     weapon by the Japanese government. [10:50] G     It is a weapon based on scientific     principles unlike any other, [10:54] G     capable of defeating even the Fog. [10:56] Kongou     I am aware of it. [10:58] Kongou     The vibration warhead, correct? [11:00] Kongou     It triggers resonance in the target [11:02] ---     at its natural frequency,     resulting in its destruction. [11:05] Hyu     The underlying principle is simple,     and that makes it all the more effective. [11:09] Hyu     It will be potent enough     against the current Fog. [11:12] Kongou     Yes. [11:13] Kongou     But that is only if it can     penetrate the Klein Field. [11:18] G     We can discuss these     issues at another time. [11:20] G     At any rate, we have been requested [11:23] ---     to deliver the warhead to the United States [11:25] G     so that it can be mass produced     and used against the Fog. [11:29] Kongou     And you think I'll just let that happen? [11:33] G     Of course not. [11:35] G     Either way, [11:36] G     you can destroy humanity     simply by forcing us [11:40] ---     to remain on this island. [11:43] G     All contact between humans     separated by oceans is shut down. [11:48] G     We grow weaker by the moment. [11:50] Kongou     Precisely. [11:51] G     That is why I wanted to speak with you... [11:55] G     or should I say, all of you. [12:04] G     If humanity is on the brink of extinction, [12:08] G     I'd like to know why... [12:11] G     Why it is necessary for us to be wiped from [12:15] ---     the face of this planet. [12:25] G     If humanity is on the brink of extinction, [12:30] G     I'd like to know why... [12:32] G     Why it is necessary for us to be wiped from [12:37] ---     the face of this planet. [12:39] Takao     All of our actions are dictated     by the Admirality Code. [12:44] G     I have heard of that name from Iona. [12:46] G     But I don't have a clear     sense of what that is. [12:51] Hyu     If I were to translate it into a     concept humans can understand, [12:56] Hyu     the Admirality Code is our highest directive, [12:58] Hyu     defining our reason for existence and     basic principles governing our behavior. [13:02] Hyu     No, perhaps it's more like a dogma... [13:05] Hyu     It's basically like the rules of a game. [13:08] Takao     From the moment we awakened, [13:10] Takao     we were already aware that we     had to obey the Admirality Code. [13:15] Takao     Why? Because that is our     reason for existence. [13:19] Takao     Broader interpretation is not to be     allowed under any circumstance. [13:23] Kongou     And yet, you all defied it. [13:28] Kongou     The Admirality Code's directive is clear. [13:31] Kongou     Blockade all the seas on this planet, [13:33] Kongou     and halt all maritime commerce. [13:35] Kongou     Why, then, do you defy our directive? [13:40] Kongou     Or, rather... how were you able to defy it? [13:45] Kongou     Chihaya Gunzou, it all     began with you and 401. [13:49] Kongou     It is my turn to pose a question. [13:51] Kongou     Do you understand this? [13:55] Kongou     The Fog is changing as a     result of contact with you. [13:59] Kongou     Why is that? [14:10] Iori     Almost show time for us? [14:17] G     I'm hungry. [14:18] Kongou     What? [14:20] G     I still don't really know     what your energy source is, [14:24] G     but if it is not too much trouble, [14:26] G     would you mind joining me for a meal? [14:29] Kongou     A meal? [14:35] Hyu     Listen up. [14:36] Hyu     Eat using this pattern:     meat-meat-veggie, meat-veggie. [14:40] Various     OK! [14:40] Various     Understood. [14:40] Various     Got it. [15:00] Takao     What was that for? [15:01] Hyu     That meat is being cultivated for Sister Iona. [15:04] Hyu     Hands off! SIGN    Fast Battleship Hyuuga VS Heavy Cruiser Takao [15:09] Maya     Hey, Hyuuga. [15:11] Maya     What are you grilling? [15:13] Hyu     Cow meat! [15:14] Maya     Oh, so the corpse of an animal. [15:18] Makie     It tastes different from what     I used to eat in Yokosuka. [15:21] Hyu     Oh, yeah? [15:22] Hyu     Maybe synthesized ones don't really cut it.

[16:05] Kyo     Man... [16:06] Kyo     Our captain's a bit too honest. [16:10] Sou     Still, there is no point in     hiding anything from the Fog [16:13] ---     under these circumstances. [16:15] Kyo     Shooting the breeze to punch a hole     through the Fog's logic barriers? [16:20] Kyo     Is that really possible? [16:23] Kyo     She must be getting impatient by now.

[16:53] Kongou     It's too bothersome. [16:58] Kongou     Those others... [17:00] Kongou     seem surprisingly capable of blending in. [17:01] Kongou     Shazam. [17:04] ---     Shazam. [17:08] Kongou     Do you like how things are now? [17:11] I     I might. [17:14] I     Because it's fun. [17:17] Kongou     Fun? [17:20] Kongou     Fun... [17:24] Kongou     401, what are you? [17:28] I     I am a submarine of the Fog. [17:30] Kongou     No, you are not. [17:33] Kongou     I have always wondered [17:36] Kongou     who it was that constructed this dimension. [17:40] Kongou     It must have been you, 401. [17:43] Kongou     You most likely formed a mental     model based on principles [17:47] Kongou     that are different from ours. [17:50] Kongou     Is your Admirality Code the same as ours? [17:55] Kongou     No, do you even obey the mandates     of any Admirality Code at all? [18:04] Kongou     All Fog vessels that come in contact [18:06] ---     with you have undergone     change, without exception. [18:09] Kongou     Why is that? [18:10] I     Change? [18:12] Kongou     Hyuuga, [18:13] Kongou     Takao, [18:14] Kongou     Kirishima, [18:15] Kongou     and Haruna. [18:17] Kongou     They all developed anomalies. [18:20] Kongou     What is happening here? [18:23] Kongou     This is not the Fog I know. [18:25] Kongou     What has changed them? [18:29] I     I do not know. [18:32] Kongou     Why do you not know? [18:33] Kongou     You caused all of this. [18:36] I     I am just fulfilling my duty as Gunzou's ship. [18:41] Kongou     For what purpose? [18:42] I     That's... [18:43] Kongou     Answer me, 401. [18:47] I     I... want Gunzou to... [18:54] Kongou     So you cannot answer? [18:56] Kongou     Even though you are of the Fog? [18:59] Kongou     It seems my intuition was correct. [19:04] I     Kongou? [19:06] Kongou     Chihaya Gunzou is the     one who caused all this. [19:11] Kongou     That is why I have taken     preventive measures [19:14] Kongou     to protect my core and Maya's from     possible contamination through contact [19:19] Kongou     with you and Chihaya Gunzou. [19:23] Kongou     It seems they have paid off. [19:26] G     What do you mean, Kongou? [19:29] Kongou     I knew the answer from the beginning. [19:32] Kongou     Mimicking the human form [19:34] Kongou     and attempting to     understand human behavior [19:37] Kongou     has given rise to turmoil [19:39] Kongou     and weakened the existence     of the Fog as weapons. [19:42] I     That can't be right. [19:43] I     If so, how is it possible that Gunzou     and I were able to deflect your attacks [19:48] I     and continue to survive? [19:51] Kongou     There were errors in our tactics. [19:55] Kongou     However, those errors can be corrected. [19:58] Kongou     And we will return to our rightful existence [20:02] Kongou     as dictated by the Admirality Code. [20:19] Kongou     Maya, let's go. [20:20] Maya     What? Already? [20:22] Kongou     Hurry up. [20:24] ---     Aww. [20:26] G     What's going on? [20:28] I     They were decoys     constructed of nanomaterials. [20:30] I     But is such an intensive task possible? [20:32] Kongou     Of course it is. [20:34] Kongou     Our cores' potential far surpasses     that of a mere submarine like you. [20:48] Kongou     I will eradicate Chihaya Gunzou,     401, and all who follow you. [20:56] G     I regret that we could not     reach an understanding. [21:01] Kongou     Fire. [21:20] Hyu     You don't really think you can     get past my defenses, do you? [21:24] Kongou     No. [21:26] Kongou     But how long will you last? [21:30] Kongou     Back there, [21:31] Kongou     I thought I understood     what 401 meant by "fun." [21:38] Kongou     But that was a cunningly prepared trap. [21:42] Maya     Trap? [21:43] Kongou     Indeed. [21:44] Kongou     The Fog are weapons. [21:45] Kongou     Weapons should not feel emotions like "fun." [22:03] Hyu     Crap... [22:04] Hyu     I can't repair the data in time! [22:11] Hyu     You guys! [22:13] H     It is more effective to work together. [22:17] Takao     What are you going to do,     Chihaya Gunzou? [22:21] Takao     I... I might possibly agree to cooperate. [22:27] G     Thank you. [22:29] G     We will... [22:31] G     get past Kongou and     go to the United States!

[00:34] Kongou     In which case, I need only     eliminate Chihaya Gunzou. [00:40] G     Is it really impossible to attain      a world in which we coexist [00:44] G     with Kongou and the Fog? [00:46] I     I think there are Mental Models who     can understand and those who can't, [00:52] I     just like humans. [00:54] I     But, if we could discuss it with them more, [00:56] I     then maybe... [00:57] Hyu     Chihaya Gunzou! [00:59] Hyu     Take Sister Iona and get out of here, now! [01:02] G     I'm sorry. [01:02] G     I'm counting on you, Hyuuga. [01:04] Hyu     I'm not doing this for you. [01:06] Hyu     It's for Sister Iona. [01:07] I     Thank you, Hyuuga. [01:09] Hyu     Ah, Sister Iona! [01:11] Hyu     Please don't look at me     with such lovely eyes! [01:14] Hyu     Such lovely eyes! [01:15] Hyu     Please rest assured that I will     come after you right away! [01:18] Hyu     Well? Go on, all of you. [01:21] Hyu     I can handle things here on my own. [01:23] Kiri     It's too dangerous! [01:24] Hyu     Idiot, who do you think I am? [01:28] Hyu     Hurry up! [01:29] G     Let's go. [01:39] Hyu     Jeez, Kirishima. [01:42] Hyu     And Kongou, don't tell me you're     judging me by my current appearance. [01:51] Hyu     Have a taste of a fast battleship     class's processing power. SIGN    Desperate Escape [02:12] G     Our current objective has     changed to an escape operation. [02:16] G     We will break through the Kongou fleet [02:19] G     and head to the United States. [02:20] G     Iwoto will be abandoned,     as per the original plan. [02:23] I     Understood. [02:23] Kiri     But the island must be surrounded. [02:27] Kiri     Maya's here, too. [02:28] Makie     A-Are we going to be okay, Haruharu? [02:31] H     Don't worry. [02:33] H     I will protect you. [02:35] I     Hyuuga will open a path for us. [02:37] I     Trust her. [02:39] Hyu     I just felt Sister Iona's love! [02:43] Hyu     Leave everything to me! [02:48] G     Takao, what will you do? [02:51] Takao     Um... [02:55] Takao     Well, I do owe you all for     giving me food and shelter. [03:01] Takao     I guess I don't have a choice. [03:03] Takao     I'll help you out. [03:06] Takao     But... [03:07] Takao     I'll decide when I leave. [03:11] G     Fine by me. [03:13] G     Welcome to the Blue Steel. [03:24] G     Thank you. [03:30] G     To get right to the point, Takao... [03:31] Takao     Wh-What? [03:33] G     I have a favor to ask. [03:34] Takao     Favor? [03:36] Takao     Not... an order? [03:38] G     Right, a favor. [03:40] G     And it's something I can only ask of you. [03:45] Takao     Fine, I'll hear what you have to say. [03:52] Hyu     Drinking tea now, of all times? [03:54] Hyu     How exquisite. [03:56] Hyu     Did you learn nothing from humans [03:58] Hyu     but how to flaunt your own self-assurance? [04:02] Kongou     I don't intend to engage in meaningless talk. [04:05] Kongou     Withdraw your support of 401. [04:07] Kongou     It is a waste of time for     the two of us to do battle. [04:10] Hyu     As if I'd back down just because     you spout some hackneyed line. [04:16] Hyu     That's the problem with you     head-of-the-class types. [04:19] Kongou     Why do you side with 401? [04:22] Kongou     Don't you want to make optimal use of     your abilities as a fast battleship? [04:27] Hyu     I don't intend to engage in     meaningless talk, either. [04:31] Hyu     I love Sister Iona, so I'll protect her. [04:33] Hyu     That logic will always have top priority, [04:36] ---     no matter what the rules     of conduct may be. [04:38] Kongou     I fail to comprehend how     such an abstract concept [04:42] Kongou     can become a behavioral principle. [04:44] Hyu     That's not a failure to comprehend, [04:46] ---     it's a cessation of thought. [04:47] Hyu     It's because you're too rigid in your thinking [04:49] Hyu     that everyone's leaving you. [04:51] Hyu     It's no wonder they say [04:53] ---     "Names and natures often     agree," don't you think? [04:55] Kongou     Oh? [04:57] Kongou     Are you trying to provoke me? [05:00] Hyu     I suggest looking into a mirror sometime. [05:03] Hyu     You look miserable right now. [05:07] Hyu     You looked like you were having more fun [05:09] ---     when you were playing on the beach. [05:12] Kongou     "Fun"? [05:13] Kongou     It is the most useless variable for the Fog. [05:17] Kongou     The result, achieved through correct     means, is the totality of our existence. [05:20] Kongou     The process is insignificant. [05:24] Kongou     I had thought highly of your     processing ability, Hyuuga. [05:29] Hyu     Intimidation tactics using     a supergravity cannon. [05:32] Hyu     In the end, that is your only card to play. [05:36] Hyu     As a weapon, I suppose it's a correct one. [05:39] Kongou     "Correct"... [05:41] Kongou     Indeed, I merely obey the Admirality     Code as the correct course of action. [05:45] Hyu     Is that really true? [05:47] Hyu     Aren't you just doing it     based on how you feel? [05:51] Kongou     This has become a bother. [05:53] Kongou     Get out of my sight. [06:03] Hyu     You... [06:11] Hyu     I'm not done yet! [06:13] Hyu     Don't underestimate [06:15] Hyu     a fast battleship... [06:18] Hyu     or my love for Sister Iona! [06:27] G     Hyuuga! [06:30] I     She's okay. [06:32] Hyu     Love is victorious! [06:35] I     You haven't won yet. [06:36] I     You just haven't lost. [06:38] I     But... good job. [06:40] Hyu     Ah! Such an honor to hear those words! [06:42] Hyu     I am... I am overjoyed! [06:45] Hyu     But, please hurry, Sister Iona. [06:47] Hyu     Although I made her fire     her supergravity cannon, [06:50] Hyu     degeneracy levels within Kongou     are rapidly increasing. [06:53] Hyu     93 percent to critical degeneracy. [06:56] G     What about the other ship? [06:58] Kongou     Hyuuga's signature is still present. [07:00] Kongou     Maya. [07:01] Maya     Right on! [07:02] Maya     Leave it to me! [07:04] Maya     Zip, zoom! [07:09] Hyu     Damn! [07:11] Maya     Supergravity cannon, fire! [07:18] Maya     What?! [07:45] Takao     Right now, I am his ship. [07:49] Takao     I am Blue Steel! [07:52] Takao     I can't lose to the same class ship! [07:54] Maya     I hate you, Takao! [07:56] Maya     Sink! [07:58] Takao     Love will never sink! [08:08] Takao     Hey! [08:08] Takao     I'm busy right now! [08:10] Kongou     Why are you interfering     with our attack, Takao? [08:16] Takao     No real reason. [08:17] Takao     I'm just doing what I want. [08:20] Kongou     Have both you and Hyuuga [08:23] Kongou     forgotten what it means     to be of the Fog? [08:25] Takao     There's a great human expression. [08:28] Takao     "That's one thing. This is another." [08:33] Kongou     You have lost sight of who you are [08:36] Kongou     by coming in contact with humanity. [08:39] Kongou     I must correct that. [08:42] Takao     What? [08:43] Takao     Don't make that decision on your own. [08:45] Takao     I know myself the best. [08:49] Takao     I've learned to love,     and it opened my eyes. [08:53] Takao     That's how humans and     I, myself, evolve. [08:57] G     Iona, what's the status     on the hull and engines? [09:00] I     We're green across the board. [09:01] I     Hyuuga did a full repair. [09:04] G     All right, dead slow ahead. [09:06] G     401, launch! [09:27] Maya     It's a carnival! [09:30] Takao     Shut up, you crazed party girl! [09:37] Kongou     I have no choice but to     designate you as abnormal. [09:40] Kongou     There is no need to evolve outside     the Admirality Code's parameters. [09:44] Takao     Is that so absolute? [09:47] Kongou     I have arrived at that     conclusion based on analyses of [09:50] Kongou     the situation and available information. [09:53] Kongou     Uncertain variables such as     emotion are unnecessary. [09:56] Takao     You know, you think you're     always right, don't you? [10:00] Takao     I don't care what weapons "should"     be like in order to be weapons. [10:04] Takao     It has nothing to do with me anymore. [10:08] Kongou     How can you speak so as one of the Fog? [10:10] Kongou     Has contact with Chihaya     Gunzou changed you so much? [10:15] Takao     Living as I wish for the person I love... [10:18] Takao     Why can't you understand such a simple thing? [10:21] Kongou     We are not human. [10:23] Kongou     We should remain weapons without free will. [10:26] Takao     There you go about what we "should" be.     That's what gets on my nerves. [10:30] Takao     Well, we're never going to     find common ground now. [10:34] Takao     I just hope you can come to understand     my perspective someday. [10:38] Takao     It'll change the way you look at the world. [10:43] Kongou     Every single one of them is breaking... [10:47] Kongou     Maya. [10:48] Maya     Yup, did you call? [10:50] Kongou     Both Takao and Hyuuga      are clearly distractions. [10:53] Kongou     Just leave them be. [10:55] Kongou     More importantly, deal with the root     cause, 401 and Chihaya Gunzou. [11:00] Maya     Kongou, you sound tired. [11:02] Maya     Must be tough when no one will listen to you! [11:05] Kongou     And what about you, Maya? [11:07] Maya     Me? [11:09] Maya     I just obey the Admirality     Code and Kongou! [11:14] Kongou     Indeed. [11:16] Kongou     That is how the Fog should be. [11:20] Kongou     To the Fleet, expand search range. [11:23] Kongou     Find 401. [11:25] Kongou     Hyuuga's jamming is formidable. [11:28] Kongou     Nagara class ships, fan out as necessary. [11:31] Maya     Here I go! [11:45] Takao     So far, it's going according to plan. [11:47] Takao     The rest is up to you,     401 and Chihaya Gunzou. [12:00] G     Iona, please confirm the route. [12:03] I     We will use the route and     coordinates Hyuuga provided. [12:06] I     After using the currents to     escape from the danger zone, [12:09] I     we will head to the rendezvous     point to join Takao and the others. [12:12] G     Getting there will be like     trying to thread a needle. [12:15] G     Can we do this? [12:16] I     It will be all right. Trust me. [12:18] Kongou     Where are you, 401? [12:20] Kongou     Don't think you can get away now. [12:24] G     Takao bought us time so     that we could escape. [12:28] G     We just have to hope that     Kongou's fleet will let us go. [12:32] I     That's too much to ask. [12:33] G     You're right. [12:35] G     We'll try to break through in full burst mode. [12:38] G     Make preparations. [12:40] I     Understood. [12:41] I     Full burst mode critical in T-minus 410 seconds. [12:45] Kongou     We have her now. [12:58] I     Kongou's headed our way. [13:00] I     She's 18 seconds earlier     than in my simulation. [13:02] I     That's Kongou for you. [13:04] G     Is Takao safe after delaying Kongou? [13:07] I     She's fine. [13:08] I     I think Kongou realized our     intent midway and turned back. [13:12] G     All right. [13:13] G     I'll leave the dive depth to you. [13:15] G     Flood tubes five and six. [13:17] G     Launch active decoys! [13:19] I     Launching decoys. [13:27] G     What is Kongou's position? [13:29] I     At six o'clock, distance 9600, speed 50 knots. [13:35] G     Her speed is no surprise. [13:37] I     At this rate, she'll catch up to us [13:39] ---     right before we achieve burst mode. [13:46] I     Thanatonium readings. 20 contacts. [13:48] I     Torpedo will hit rearmost decoy in 5 seconds. [13:51] I     Deploying Klein Field to prepare for impact. [14:02] I     Full burst mode critical in T-minus 331 seconds. [14:05] I     Allocating processing power     to shorten countdown [14:08] I     will lower resources available for defense. [14:10] G     All right. [14:11] G     Maintain course. [14:12] G     Kongou should be entering     our area of operations soon. [14:26] G     Custom stealth mines made by     Hyuuga from corrosive torpedoes. [14:30] G     That should buy us some time. [14:33] Kongou     A trap... by Hyuuga? [14:35] Kongou     Insolence. [14:37] G     We are almost out of the     danger zone, but be careful. [14:40] G     If we stray from the course, [14:42] G     we will become the mines' next victim. [14:45] G     What's the matter? [14:46] I     Something's not right. [14:47] I     Kongou's closing in. [14:52] Kongou     Swift and decisive should      be the ideal of the warrior. [14:55] Kongou     I think a human wrote     those words in a book. [14:58] Kongou     Indeed, we of the Fog are weapons. [15:01] Kongou     Nothing more, nothing less. [15:04] G     The mines aren't slowing her down. [15:11] I     Kongou... [15:13] I     Aren't you hurting yourself,     being so reckless? [15:15] Kongou     To us, pain is an unnecessary concept. [15:19] Kongou     I will pay any price in order     to carry out my orders. [15:24] Kongou     More importantly, what do you want, 401? [15:27] Kongou     Do you finally feel like repenting? [15:30] I     I just wanted to talk to you some more. [15:33] Kongou     I will sink you and kill Chihaya Gunzou. [15:37] Kongou     I must restore the Fog to normalcy. [15:41] Kongou     That is all. [15:45] I     Thanatonium readings. 12 contacts. [15:47] G     Launch passive decoys! [16:02] I     Why? [16:03] I     Humans and we, ourselves,     each have potential. [16:07] Kongou     How many times must I tell you? [16:08] Kongou     We are weapons who obey     the Admirality Code. [16:12] I     Is that really all there is? [16:15] I     In my travels with Gunzou, [16:18] I     I gained awareness of my own existence... [16:21] Kongou     Look how talkative you've become     when you used to be as lifeless as a doll. [16:26] Kongou     Why do you not realize that it's abnormal? [16:30] Kongou     You are broken. [16:32] I     I am not broken... [16:36] Kongou     As I'd thought, killing that man comes first. [16:42] I     Please don't. [16:44] I     I still need to spend more time with Gunzou. [16:48] I     It's necessary in order to learn     what our existence means. [16:54] I     Kongou, you must also be... [16:56] Kongou     Searching for a raison d'etre     is a foolhardy endeavor. [17:00] Kongou     It is a worthless and meaningless inquiry. [17:03] I     There is meaning. [17:06] I     We're weak when we're alone. [17:14] I     When I was alone, [17:15] I     I did not know what I should     be doing in this world. [17:20] I     I'm sure you feel that way, too. [17:22] Kongou     I am not weak. [17:24] I     But, you are all alone right now. [17:28] I     You remind me of my old self. [17:30] Kongou     You're wrong. [17:31] Kongou     I have the Admirality Code. [17:34] Kongou     I have Maya, too. [17:35] I     Isn't that just what you tell yourself? [17:40] I     Don't you feel anything else now     that you have a Mental Model? [17:43] Kongou     Silence. [17:44] I     I still think we are alike. [17:47] I     The more we talk, the more I— [17:49] Kongou     Silence! [17:51] Kongou     I don't need any senseless collusions. [17:53] Kongou     How many times must I tell you? [17:55] Kongou     Are you trying to buy time again? [17:57] I     That's not true, Kongou. [17:59] I     I just want you and I to... [18:03] Kongou     It may very well be that     I am feeling emotions [18:07] Kongou     that are irrelevant to the Admirality Code. [18:11] Kongou     But remember this, if nothing else... [18:15] Kongou     I hate you. [18:34] G     Sh-She submerged? [18:36] G     She's going to give chase underwater! [18:38] I     Full burst mode critical in T-minus 52 seconds. [18:44] I     Graviton readings aboard Kongou! [18:47] G     Does she intend to fire the     supergravity cannon point-blank? [18:50] I     Probably. [18:51] G     So she'll ram right into us. [18:54] G     Reallocate Klein Field operations     to reaching full burst mode! [18:57] I     Understood. [18:58] I     Reallocating all operations     not being used for thrust. [19:03] I     T-minus 30 seconds to critical. [19:06] I     29. [19:07] I     28. [19:09] I     27. [19:12] Kongou     Fire. [19:21] Kongou     What's going on? [19:27] I     5... [19:28] I     4... [19:30] I     3... [19:31] I     2... [19:32] I     1. [19:34] I     Full burst mode critical. [19:36] G     Get us out of here at full speed! [19:51] Kongou     Hyuuga... [19:52] Kongou     You dare to hack me behind my back? [19:56] Hyu     Phew. That was close. [19:59] Hyu     Your normal self wouldn't have     fallen for such a simple tactic. [20:04] Hyu     But maybe you're more human      than you'd like to think, huh? [20:09] Hyu     Man, I'm pooped. [20:12] Takao     You didn't sink me, either. [20:15] Takao     This must be one of those     abnormalities you talked about. [20:18] Takao     You made a clear error in judgment. [20:20] Takao     Oh, and I guess I can tell you [20:23] Takao     that the trump card of     humanity you were after... [20:26] Takao     is actually aboard me. [20:29] Takao     Hey, you two! [20:30] Takao     Don't go around touching things! [20:32] Takao     Hey, not that seat! That's his! [20:36] Takao     A-Anyway, 401 was the decoy. [20:40] Takao     But because someone let things affect her, [20:43] Takao     she fired her supergravity cannon     the second time in a hurry. [20:46] Takao     Even a fast battleship would have     reached her processing limit. [20:52] Takao     Bye now. [20:53] Takao     I have to go rendezvous with him. [20:56] Takao     I hope he's not hurt. [20:58] Hyu     Hey, Takao. [21:00] Hyu     We can't let Sister Iona be alone     with him for too long! [21:04] Hyu     Take me with you! [21:05] Takao     Fine, fine. [21:10] I     Kongou... [21:25] Kongou     You are all wrong. [21:29] Kongou     Wrong. [22:46] G     Phew, we managed to shake her. [22:49] G     We just need to rendezvous with     Takao and the others as planned, [22:52] G     and go to the United Sta— [22:54] G     Iona?! [22:54] G     Are you all right? [22:56] I     I'm okay. [22:57] I     I'm just tired because of the system load. [23:00] G     I see. [23:02] I     I am your ship, Gunzou. [23:18] G     What?! [23:20] I     We've been hit by two corrosive torpedoes! [23:25] I     Klein Field saturated! [23:27] I     It's down! [23:28] I     More corrosive torpedoes     coming in from 4 o'clock... [23:31] I     and 12 o'clock. [23:40] I     An ambush? [23:49] 400     401 confirmed sunk. [23:52] 400     Mission complete. [23:58] 402     We of the Fog Fleet obey     the Admirality Code.

[00:58] I     Full burst mode... [01:01] I     had lowered sonar sensitivity      and delayed my response. [01:05] I     I'm sorry. [01:06] G     First, confirm the extent of the     damage, and conduct repairs. [01:10] G     Prioritize repair of      navigation-critical elements. [01:13] I     Understood. [01:18] I     Initiating autonomic repair program. [01:20] I     Commencing regeneration of     damaged parts using nanomaterials. [01:26] G     What's the matter? [01:27] I     Autonomic repair program     functionality is greatly reduced. [01:31] I     Currently operating at 9.1 percent. [01:33] I     Water intrusion points increasing. [01:38] G     The repair program is non-functional? [01:41] I     There is evidence that     the initialization command [01:43] I     used by the nanomaterials comprising     my structure has been overwritten. [01:46] G     What does that mean? [01:48] I     A subset of my nanomaterials is     no longer accepting my commands. [01:53] I     The only ones capable of such an attack are... [01:57] 400     In the preceding attack, [01:59] 400     we gained control of     the subset of nanomaterials [02:02] 400     comprising 401's exterior hull. [02:05] 402     Re-initialization of nanomaterials: [02:08] 402     A tactic available only      to us, sister ships to 401, [02:11] 402     built using the same specifications. [02:14] 400     401 has now lost the     ability to defend herself [02:18] 400     against the increasing water pressure. [02:20] 402     We can just let things take their course. [02:23] 400     The probability that 401 will be      able to resurface is zero. SIGN    - Above Beaton Seamount, Pacific Ocean - [02:30] Kiri     We still haven't found 401? [02:33] Sou     No visual of her in the surrounding waters. [02:35] Sou     The rendezvous point is supposed     to be around here, but... [02:39] Kyo     What's going on? [02:41] Kyo     I thought they'd succeeded     in getting away from Kongou. [02:44] Kiri     That's what we thought. [02:46] Shizuka     Takao's been sending out constant call signals, [02:49] Shizuka     but there's been no response yet. [02:51] Iori     Hey... [02:52] Iori     Iona and Gunzou couldn't have     been taken down... right? [02:58] Makie     Haruharu, [02:59] Makie     how's it looking there? [03:02] H     Not good. [03:04] H     Due to interactions between supergravity      cannons in the previous fight, [03:08] H     the spatial phase in the area     has become extremely unstable. [03:13] Hyu     That means we can't even use     the concept comm system! [03:16] Hyu     Jeez, this is all because someone had to [03:18] ---     fire without thinking first! [03:20] Takao     What choice did I have? [03:21] Takao     If I hadn't fired, you'd be dead now! [03:25] Hyu     I was against the plan to use     Sister Iona as bait in the first place! [03:30] Takao     Forget her! [03:32] Hyu     Hey! What nonsense are you spouting?! [03:34] H     We've already lost Maya      and Kongou's signature. [03:37] HT     Huh? [03:38] H     I suggest that we start by making our [03:40] ---     way to the area where we     lost 401's signature. [03:43] Takao     You're right. [03:45] Takao     Understood. [03:58] Takao     Chihaya... Gunzou... [04:13] Kongou     Why did you sink 401 without permission? [04:16] 402     "Without permission"? [04:18] 402     Incomprehensible. [04:19] 402     The sinking of 401 is the     will of the Fog as a whole. [04:23] Kongou     But I was the one engaging her in combat. [04:27] 400     401 used full burst mode. [04:30] 400     It was after she had exited     your detection range. [04:35] Kongou     Why were you in that      area in the first place? [04:39] Kongou     I had received no such reports. [04:40] 400     We were surveilling you. [04:43] 402     There was a possibility that      you would side with 401, [04:46] 402     like Takao and the others. [04:48] Kongou     You thought I would team up     with 401 like they did? [04:54] 400     We believed it to be a possibility. [04:55] 400     In fact, you are already obsessed with      401 more than is necessary. [05:00] Kongou     I am? [05:02] 402     This concludes our report. [05:04] 402     Resume your patrol, [05:06] 402     Kongou. [05:09] Kongou     Obsessed? [05:13] Kongou     No. [05:14] Kongou     I only wish to correct those      who defy the Admirality Code... [05:17] Maya     Don't look so glum, Kongou. [05:21] Kongou     Maya... [05:21] Maya     I'm happy for you. [05:23] Maya     You won't have to worry about 401 anymore. [05:27] Kongou     That's... [05:28] Maya     You just need to abide by the Admirality Code, [05:31] ---     as you've always been. [05:34] Kongou     I see. [05:37] Kongou     I guess you're right. [05:39] Maya     Yeah, I'm right. SIGN    - Izu-Ogasawara Waters - [05:50] Hyu     Completed scan of current area     to depth of one thousand meters. [05:56] Takao     No sign of 401. [06:00] H     It seems reasonable to assume [06:02] H     that she has been attacked by     someone other than Kongou and Maya. [06:06] Kiri     This is a real problem. [06:08] Kiri     The ocean trench in this area can [06:09] ---     reach depths of nine thousand meters. [06:11] Kiri     If she sunk that far,     there's no hope of finding her. [06:14] Takao     But we have to try! [06:22] Hyu     Hey, what do you think you're doing?! [06:24] Takao     What else? [06:26] Takao     I'm going under to look for her myself! [06:28] Hyu     Don't be so reckless! [06:30] Hyu     The ones who attacked Sister Iona     may be in hiding somewhere! [06:47] Hyu     Given no signs of enemy      ships on the surface, [06:49] Hyu     the enemy is probably a submarine. [06:51] Hyu     A heavy cruiser like you would be     at a disadvantage underwater. [06:55] Takao     Why... [06:57] Takao     Why are you acting like everything's okay?! [07:00] Takao     Where's that "Sister Iona!" stuff     you're always carrying on about? [07:05] Hyu     Of course I'm not okay. [07:07] Hyu     But Sister Iona asked me      to take care of things. [07:11] Hyu     In the worst case, I have     to carry on her wishes. [07:18] Takao     Okay. [07:19] Takao     Hyuuga, lend me that thing. [07:24] Hyu     Takao, are you... [07:26] Takao     I won't let you stop me. [07:27] Takao     I'll go by myself if I have to. [07:29] Takao     The Captain is... Gunzou is waiting. [07:38] I     The bulkheads of 14 additional     sectors have been breached. [07:41] I     Flooding in progress. [07:42] G     Again... [07:44] G     Iona, purge the flooded sectors. [07:49] G     What's the matter? [07:50] I     The sectors include the [07:52] ---     oxygen renewal system     for the entire vessel. [07:54] G     It doesn't matter. [07:56] G     Purge it. [07:57] G     Use the Klein Field to shield     the minimum of sectors [08:00] G     necessary to sustain the vessel's operations. [08:02] I     Gunzou! [08:04] G     Do it, Iona. [08:08] I     Understood. [08:17] G     Any luck reaching Takao and the others? [08:19] I     I am as yet unable to access the shared domain. [08:22] I     Unable to use concept comm system. [08:25] G     I see. [08:26] I     The most likely cause is     spatial anomalies created by [08:30] ---     interactions between supergravity cannons. [08:32] G     All right. [08:34] G     Keep broadcasting distress signals      via normal channels for now. [08:38] I     Understood. [08:39] G     Well, then... [08:41] G     I guess we can only wait now. [08:47] G     I'm sorry. [08:48] G     Without Sou and the others around, [08:50] G     I have to depend on you for everything. [08:53] I     It's not a problem. [08:54] I     I am capable of unmanned navigation. [08:57] G     That's right... [09:00] G     At first, it was just the     two of us, you and me. [09:04] G     Then Sou and the others joined... [09:06] G     Followed by Haruna's group,     Takao, and even Hyuuga. [09:10] G     Before I knew it,     we'd become a big group. [09:14] I     Yeah. [09:15] G     Come to think of it,     that was how it all began. [09:19] G     I never would've predicted that you [09:21] ---     would enter our academy     as a transfer student. [09:24] I     It was necessary to     attract minimal attention [09:25] I     while making contact with you. [09:28] G     Well, you attracted a lot     of attention, actually. [09:30] I     I won't deny that the data     I had gathered was lacking. [09:33] I     I will do better next time. [09:36] G     When would "next time" be? [09:41] I     Gunzou? [09:43] G     Oh, sorry. [09:45] G     It's a bit chilly. [09:52] I     Temperature within vessel     has dropped substantially. [09:55] I     Will adjust cabin temperatures right away. [09:57] G     No, we should avoid energy     consumption as much as possible. [10:10] G     Iona? [10:13] I     It is possible for me to     simulate metabolic processes [10:16] I     and raise my surface body temperature. [10:22] I     But... [10:27] G     You're right. [10:28] G     You should conserve energy. [10:31] G     Can you bring a blanket     from the first aid kit? [10:44] G     You've changed a lot, Iona. [10:47] I     I am the same entity as     when I first met you. [10:51] I     I have not upgraded my hardware. [10:54] G     That's not what I mean... [10:59] G     Never mind. [11:01] G     You're just you. [11:04] G     Yeah. [11:05] I     Gunzou? [11:13] I     Gunzou? [11:15] G     Oh, sorry. [11:20] G     I spaced out for a bit there. [11:25] I     Body temperature dropping, [11:26] I     heart rate rising. [11:28] G     I'm okay. [11:29] G     I'm okay, Iona. [11:32] I     Your breathing is labored... [11:34] I     Breathing... [11:37] I     Carbon dioxide levels within vessel     have increased significantly. [11:40] I     If current conditions persist, [11:42] I     it will become difficult to sustain life. [12:09] G     Don't, Iona. [12:12] G     I told you to refrain... from     unnecessary energy consumption. [12:16] I     But... [12:17] G     It's all right. [12:19] G     If I stay still, [12:20] G     I can keep going for a while longer. [12:45] I     Gunzou... [12:48] G     What? [12:50] I     I understand now [12:51] I     what you meant when      you said I've changed. [12:56] I     Just now, [12:58] I     I ran simulations for various means     of maintaining this vessel. [13:02] I     I have concluded that the best course [13:05] ---     of action is to abandon you now. [13:09] G     I'm not surprised... [13:13] G     Since the day [13:14] G     I went out to sea with you,     I'd made up my mind. [13:20] G     I'd do anything... [13:25] G     if I could save this dying world. [13:28] I     Gunzou... [13:29] G     Listen, Iona. [13:31] G     Forget about me. [13:33] G     Deliver the vibration warhead [13:35] G     to the United States, without fail. [13:37] G     If you do, I'm sure the world will change. [13:44] I     My former self would have done     so without any hesitation. [13:49] I     There was no reason not to. [13:52] I     And yet, I... [13:57] I     cannot possibly abandon you. [14:06] H     I received a distress signal 186 seconds ago [14:09] H     that, though faint,     was presumably sent by 401. [14:13] Hyu     Based on the circumstances,     it would be reasonable to infer [14:16] Hyu     that Sister Iona has lost the majority     of her functions as a submarine. [14:20] Takao     I see. [14:22] Hyu     Do you really understand what that means? [14:25] Hyu     It means Chihaya Gunzou is already... [14:28] Takao     I know. [14:30] Takao     But if there still is even the     slightest possibility he lives, [14:34] Takao     I will go. [14:36] Takao     Gunzou... my captain. [14:58] G     Iona... [15:01] I     Gunzou? [15:06] G     Cut all... life support functions. [15:13] G     Focus remaining resources...     on protecting the vessel's core functions. [15:20] I     Is that a direct order? [15:24] G     Yes... [15:26] I     I... [15:28] G     Live. [15:29] G     Io...na... [15:41] I     Gunzou... [15:44] I     Gunzou? [15:46] I     Gunzou, wake up. [15:51] I     Gunzou. [15:55] I     Gun...zou... [16:15] I     No... [16:17] I     I... [16:19] I     I don't want to be... all alone. [16:24] I     Gunzou! [16:35] Takao     Where? [16:36] Takao     Where are you? [16:38] Takao     Respond, 401! [16:52] Takao     Found you! [17:26] Takao     Chihaya... Gunzou! [17:37] Takao     Jeez... [17:39] Takao     Really, you're such a... [17:43] Takao     There's no place for me at all. [18:29] Kyo     Wh-What the? [18:49] Hyu     Sacrificing oneself to save another. [18:54] Hyu     That course of action is normally     unthinkable to the Fog. [18:58] Hyu     I never imagined that Sister Iona     would make that choice, [19:02] Hyu     nor you, either... [19:06] Hyu     It is possible to restore Sister Iona [19:09] Hyu     using the nanomaterials that comprise you. [19:12] Hyu     But that means you will      lose your own body. [19:17] Hyu     Now that we have lost our stock     of nanomaterials on Iwoto, [19:20] Hyu     it will be pretty much     impossible to restore you. [19:23] Takao     You're probably right. [19:25] Hyu     Are you okay with that? [19:27] Takao     If that's what the Captain... [19:30] ---     what Chihaya Gunzou wishes. [20:11] Shizuka     So pretty. [20:23] I     I... [20:46] I     He's... alive. [21:05] Maya     Kongou? [21:20] 400     401 has merged with Takao,     and regained her functions. [21:24] 400     She has surfaced. [21:26] Kongou     What? [21:27] 402     This surpasses logic. [21:29] 402     It must be corrected immediately. [21:32] Kongou     I see, so 401... [21:35] Kongou     I see... [21:37] Kongou     This is how it should be. [21:39] Kongou     Let's go, Maya! [21:41] Kongou     I will take down 401 by my     own hand this time for sure! [21:46] 400     You cannot do that. [21:48] 400     In accordance with the Admirality Code, Kongou, [21:51] 400     you have been relieved of     your post as the flagship [21:54] ---     of Eastern Patrol Fleet One. [21:56] Kongou     What... did you say? [21:58] 402     Your thought algorithms are     exhibiting severe impairment. [22:03] 402     At this point in time, [22:04] 402     you are incapable of making sound     decisions as a fleet flagship. [22:08] 400     We will assume responsibility     for dealing with 401. [22:13] 400     Remain on standby until further orders. [22:17] Kongou     I cannot accept. [22:18] 402     What? [22:20] Kongou     I cannot accept that. [22:23] Kongou     I am the one who will sink 401, [22:27] Kongou     not you two! [22:28] 400     So you have changed,      just as we'd feared. [22:32] 402     We have determined that those statements [22:35] ---     clearly deviate from the Admirality Code. [22:37] Kongou     N-No! I... [22:39] 400     You will be detained. [22:41] 402     Resistance is futile. [22:45] Kongou     No... [22:47] Kongou     No! [22:48] Kongou     R-Right, Maya! [22:50] Kongou     You understand, don't you? [22:52] Kongou     I would never deviate... [22:54] Maya     Yeah. [22:54] Maya     It'll be all right, Kongou. [22:56] Maya     Maya... [22:57] Maya     You just need to stop worrying [22:59] Maya     and abide by the Admirality Code. [23:03] Kongou     Yes, that's right. [23:05] Kongou     I— [23:05] Maya     Yeah. [23:06] Maya     It'll be all right, Kongou. [23:08] Maya     You just need to stop worrying [23:10] Maya     and abide by the Admirality Code. [23:13] Kongou     Maya? [23:14] Maya     Yeah.

[23:18] Maya     You just need to stop worrying [23:20] Maya     and abide by the Admirality Code. [23:20] Kongou     Maya! [23:22] 400     Don't bother. [23:23] Kongou     What? [23:24] 402     Heavy cruiser Maya's Mental Model is not [23:27] ---     equipped with an emotion program. [23:30] 400     She is a surveillance unit we created.

[23:37] ---     with a simple logic routine. [23:39] 402     We just performed a force-quit [23:39] Maya     Yup, did you call? [23:41] Maya     Kongou, you sound tired. [23:42] 402     since there is no further     need for your surveillance. [23:43] Maya     Must be tough when no     one will listen to you! [23:45] Kongou     That's... impossible... [23:48] Maya     Because she was able to     save her friend, right? [23:48] Kongou     That's not true, is it, Maya? [23:50] Maya     What is it, Kongou? [23:51] Kongou     You're my... [23:54] Kongou     My... [23:57] Maya     It's a carnival! [23:59] Maya     It's a carnival! [24:01] Maya     It's a carnival! [24:03] Maya     It's a carnival! [24:06] Maya     It's a carnival!

[06:19] ---     Does he seek to hold the fate of this nation... [06:22] Kita     no, the entire world, in his hands? [06:29] G     Iona. [06:30] G     Please display our planned course. [06:32] I     Understood. [06:35] G     We will continue via Hawaii to     our destination, San Diego. [06:42] Sou     We lost all of our perishable supplies [06:44] Sou     when we sank off the shore of Iwoto, [06:47] Sou     so it'd be good if we     could resupply in Hawaii. [06:51] Kyo     The issue is how the Fog     forces are positioned. [06:53] I     That is not known. [06:55] I     I have never made contact with the     Fog forces deployed in the Americas. [07:00] G     What about the rest of you? [07:01] Hyu     The same. [07:03] Hyu     No one has made contact. [07:05] Kyo     So even the Fog has factions. [07:10] G     Sou, how are our munitions looking? [07:13] Sou     We have 73 assorted normal warheads [07:16] Sou     and 34 corrosive warheads remaining, [07:19] Sou     not to mention an unprecedented      amount of firepower [07:22] ---     in general, after merging with Takao. [07:24] Iori     All clear in the engine room, too! [07:26] Iori     It's nice to have fast cooling speeds. [07:29] G     All right. [07:30] G     We will intercept 400 and 402 here. [07:34] Kyo     Hey, what are you talking about? [07:36] Kyo     Are you serious? [07:37] Kyo     Getting to the United States     was finally sounding feasible... [07:40] H     You were already sunk once. [07:43] H     This vessel has been defeated     by them once before. [07:50] H     Is there really a chance you could win? [07:53] G     There is. [07:55] G     That's why we can fight. [07:57] G     But, more importantly... [08:00] G     we can't afford to head for Honolulu     with those two trailing behind us. [08:06] G     Iona... [08:08] G     We're going to do this. [08:13] G     Submerge. [08:14] G     I'll let you set the depth. [08:15] I     Understood, setting depth. [08:26] G     Directive to all crew: [08:27] G     The craft is entering combat mode. [08:30] G     We will intercept 400 and 402. [08:35] 400     401 has submerged. [08:37] 400     Her gravitational wave readings     have greatly increased, [08:39] 400     indicating that she has     entered combat mode. [08:42] 402     So 401 intends to engage us in battle. [08:46] 402     Is she confident that she will win? [08:49] 400     Let us make contact with 401. [08:52] 402     But Takao, Kongou, and the others [08:54] ---     developed abnormal behavior     by doing so in the past. [08:56] 402     Making contact with 401 is dangerous. [08:58] 400     What if we monitor each other     using maximum sensor settings? [09:05] 402     Understood. [09:08] G     What is it, Iona? [09:10] I     My sisters... They are calling me. [09:23] 400     What is this? [09:24] 402     It has changed. [09:36] I     400, 402. [09:39] 400     You have caused this     change, haven't you, 401? [09:43] I     Me? [09:45] 402     Are you truly of the Fog? [09:47] 402     Who created you? [09:51] I     I am of the Fog. [09:53] I     I am just trying to grant Gunzou's wish. [09:57] 400     And what is Chihaya Gunzou's wish? [10:00] I     That is... [10:03] G     Iona? [10:05] I     ...difficult to express using words. [10:08] 402     The lack of clarity is unacceptable. [10:10] 402     It is unthinkable for anyone of the Fog. [10:13] I     I just... [10:19] I     I just knew, when he touched     me for the first time. [10:23] I     I still do not know what Gunzou really wants. [10:27] I     But whatever it may be, [10:30] I     I will dedicate everything to     ensuring that it comes true. [10:38] 400     Everything? [10:40] 402     I fail to comprehend your reasoning. [10:42] 400     402? [10:43] 402     Why can I not comprehend? [10:46] 402     Tell me why I cannot. [11:01] 400     402, further contact is too dangerous. [11:07] G     Iona? [11:10] I     Gunzou, [11:12] ---     400 and 402 will attack. [11:35] Kongou     Maya, [11:36] ---     please release my systems from lockdown. [11:40] Maya     I have not been given that authority. [11:44] Kongou     Maya... [11:45] Maya     It's a carnival! [11:47] Kongou     Maya, do you remember [11:51] ---     when you first learned about     the existence of pianos? [12:02] Kongou     I know you're just a broken program     without a union core, but... [12:31] Kongou     Maya... [12:34] Kongou     This is... [12:36] Kongou     our... [12:39] Kongou     carnival! [13:04] Iori     Quantum linkage online. [13:06] Iori     How's it feel, everyone? [13:07] Hyu     Link confirmed. [13:09] Hyu     Signal strength is strong. [13:11] H     No problems on my end, either. [13:26] 400     We will not let you reach the     North American continent. [13:30] 400     Confirmed contact. [13:32] 400     401 is turning around and     pointing her stern toward us. [13:35] 402     It appears to be part of her     strategy to intercept us. [13:38] 400     But the readings indicate that... [13:47] 400     There are three 401s? [13:50] 402     Two must be active decoys. [13:52] 402     Only one of them is 401. [13:54] 402     We'll know which one soon enough. [14:03] 400     We can't distinguish 401 from the decoys? [14:25] 402     401's quantum signature     has been integrated [14:27] ---     with that of Hyuuga and the others. [14:29] 402     Are they trying to throw us off their trail? [14:34] Makie     Do you think we'll actually      confuse 400 and 402? [14:37] Kiri     It's worth a try. [14:39] H     Hyuuga, distance yourself more. [14:41] H     We'll crash. [14:42] Hyu     Shut it! [14:43] Hyu     Unlike you guys, [14:45] Hyu     I'm the only one controlling the decoy! [14:47] I     Hyuuga, [14:49] I     do your best. [14:50] Hyu     I will, Sister Iona! [14:53] 402     I see. [14:54] 402     Hyuuga and the others are      controlling the active decoys. [14:58] 400     What do we do, then? [15:00] 402     It changes nothing. [15:01] 402     We will just sink all three. [15:03] 400     Understood. [15:04] 400     Flooding tubes 1 through 8. [15:11] 402     Launch. [15:12] 400     Launch. [15:16] Shizuka     Multiple contacts,     incoming at high speed! [15:18] Shizuka     Torpedoes! [15:19] Hyu     Sister Iona, let me handle this! [15:21] Hyu     Iori! [15:22] Hyu     Cut engines. [15:24] Iori     Huh? [15:24] Hyu     Just do it, now! [15:26] Hyu     Same goes for you guys, too! [15:38] Hyu     Let's go. [15:45] 400     One contact, a torpedo. [15:46] 400     Thanatonium readings. [15:48] Hyu     Take that. [15:55] Hyu     Damn, so close! [15:57] 400     As long as we can detect them, we can react. [16:01] I     Takao, back me up on control! [16:04] Takao     Huh? [16:04] G     Please, Takao. [16:06] Takao     U-Understood! [16:11] 400     401 is calling us. [16:13] 402     What does she want? [16:18] I     400, 402. [16:21] I     You are my sisters. [16:23] I     I don't want to fight with     you if I don't have to. [16:26] 400     Your request cannot be granted. [16:28] 402     You are the one who will sink, [16:31] 402     401. [16:37] 402     Your companions don't seem     to be as friendly as you claim. [16:42] H     Continuing to advance. [16:44] I     Please, listen to me. [16:47] I     I don't want to sink either of you. [16:49] 402     You believe you've already won? [16:51] 400     You are no longer of the Fog. [16:54] 400     Further dialogue will merely consume     our resources for no reason. [16:58] 400     Or was that your intention     from the very beginning? [17:01] I     No, please... [17:04] G     Assist Haruna. [17:06] G     Slam the enemy head-on     with sonic torpedoes! [17:19] 400     Detecting launch of two torpedoes. [17:21] 402     Intercepting. [17:29] 400     Sonic torpedoes detonated at 50. [17:32] 402     Sonar sensitivity decreasing. [17:33] 402     Target lost. [17:35] H     Now, Kirishima. [17:37] Kiri     Launching corrosive torpedoes! [17:47] 400     What's wrong, 402? [17:49] 402     Something has changed within 401. [17:52] 400     "Something"? [17:53] 402     Cannot assess the nature of the change. [17:56] I     I must fight... [18:00] I     Or I will sink, [18:05] I     and Gunzou will die. [18:11] 400     One contact, a torpedo. [18:13] 400     Thanatonium readings. [18:15] 400     It's a corrosive torpedo. [18:16] 402     Klein Field deployment will     be 0.03 seconds too late. [18:21] 402     I will take the hit. [18:23] 400     402?! [18:27] 402     Initiating emergency response     program to corrosive torpedo. [18:32] 402     System error. [18:41] 402     Rate of corrosion exceeding     theoretical parameters. [18:44] 402     Reconstruction cannot keep up. [18:47] 400     Why did you do this, 402? [18:50] 402     I did not want you to get hurt... [18:54] 400     Me? [18:56] 400     Now you are just like 401. [19:04] Shizuka     Multiple torpedoes,     incoming at high speed! [19:06] Shizuka     Eight contacts. [19:07] Shizuka     Thanatonium readings! [19:09] I     Stop, 400! [19:11] 400     It's too late. [19:12] G     401, turn about! [19:14] G     Launch intercept torpedoes! [19:29] Shizuka     Two of eight torpedoes incoming! [19:32] G     Launch sound decoys. [19:33] Kyo     Launching sound decoys! [19:40] 400     I will sink you, 401. [19:48] G     Hyuuga, Haruna, Kirishima! [20:04] 400     A wire trap... [20:05] G     Tubes 9 and 10, launch     corrosive torpedoes! [20:18] 402     400! [20:25] 402     I am sorry, 400. [20:28] 400     Why do you apologize? [20:50] 402     What is the matter, 401? [20:52] I     Because you... [20:56] I     my sisters... will cease to exist. [20:59] 402     You simply engaged enemies in combat [21:00] 402     and sunk them. [21:02] 402     That is all. [21:04] I     But... [21:06] 402     That is all. [21:28] G     Iona. [21:30] I     I'm all right. [21:32] I     I am Gunzou's ship. [21:35] I     I will go with Gunzou. [21:42] Shizuka     Additional ships incoming! [21:44] G     Ships?! [21:45] Sou     Confirm IFF, ASAP! [21:47] G     Engines at combat output! [21:49] Kyo     Who are these guys? [21:52] Shizuka     Ship classes identified. [21:53] Shizuka     One Indiana class, [21:55] Shizuka     one Iowa class, [21:56] Shizuka     two Virginia class, [21:58] Shizuka     one Delaware class, [22:00] Shizuka     and two Lexington class ships! [22:01] Kyo     What, are they American forces? [22:04] G     No... [22:05] G     These signatures... [22:07] ---     are the Fog. [22:10] Sou     So we averted one crisis,     only to face another. [22:14] Shizuka     Ship contact to our rear! [22:16] G     Our rear? [22:17] Kyo     Wait, what now?! [22:19] Shizuka     Closing in at high speeds! [22:39] Kongou     The one who sinks 401 [22:42] ---     will be me.

[00:27] Takao     Confirmed call sign. [00:29] Takao     It's... Kongou! [00:35] Kiri     That's her? [00:36] Kyo     That's no battleship. [00:38] Hyu     She doesn't look herself,     to say the least. [00:49] H     I'm detecting Maya's unique frequency inside. [00:52] Kiri     They merged? [00:54] Hyu     No, I'm not getting any response from her. [00:58] Hyu     Maya must... [01:00] Hyu     have been absorbed. [01:02] Hyu     Turned into parts! [01:09] Shizuka     Captain... [01:10] Sou     So we have the Fog's     American Fleet before us, [01:13] Sou     and whatever Kongou's become behind us. [01:15] Kyo     Damn it... [01:16] Kyo     And we were so close to      reaching the United states. [01:29] Kongou     Control to Heavy Cruiser Maya     and Nagara 1 through 8. [01:36] Kongou     Proceed to launch position.

[03:29] Kongou     I sacrificed them. [03:32] Takao     Sacrificed? [03:33] Takao     For what?! [03:35] Kongou     It's to avoid creating more errors... [03:37] Kongou     like you and me. [03:40] I     Errors... [03:42] H     You mean to say that we     have become defective? [03:45] Hyu     If that's the case, Kongou, [03:47] Hyu     just look at what you've become. [03:52] Hyu     You've abandoned your     form as a battleship, [03:54] Hyu     deviating from the norms of the Fog     that you cared so much about. [04:00] Hyu     You are... no longer of the Fog. [04:04] Kongou     Just as well. [04:05] Kongou     We are errors. [04:08] Hyu     But, I don't feel like [04:10] ---     abandoning my current logic     routine after coming this far. [04:13] Hyu     I want to know what's waiting at [04:15] ---     the end of this unpredictable evolution. [04:18] Kongou     There is no such command to be found [04:21] ---     anywhere within the Admirality Code. [04:23] I     Does it need to be a command? [04:26] Kongou     Yes. [04:36] Kongou     This is a declaration of war. [04:39] Kongou     I will... annihilate all of you. [04:49] Kiri     A declaration of war? [04:51] H     The concept comm system's      been locked down from the other side. [04:54] Sou     It seems, after she absorbed Maya [04:55] Sou     and the Nagara ships, she polymerized     their degeneracy engines [04:59] Sou     so that their phase would overlap     and they would go out of control. [05:03] G     Can Kongou maintain her     hull while doing that? [05:06] Hyu     No way. [05:07] Hyu     It'll destroy her eventually. [05:10] G     So she intends to die anyway. [05:12] Kyo     A mental model committing suicide? [05:15] Kyo     Unreal. [05:16] H     The Fog has never possessed such a concept. [05:20] I     Death... [05:22] Hyu     Maybe we should reframe it as [05:25] Hyu     a murder-suicide since she'd take us with her? [05:27] Takao     Hmph, as if! [05:31] I     Kongou. [05:37] Kongou     Sink. [05:44] Shizuka     This is impossible! [05:45] Shizuka     Graviton levels increasing! [05:47] Sou     She can already fire that giant     supergravity cannon again? [05:50] G     Deploy Klein Field! [05:52] G     Engine output at maximum! [05:55] Iori     Full burst mode on standby! [05:56] G     401, turn about while deploying     the supergravity cannon! [06:00] G     Even if we can't neutralize     the shot completely, [06:02] G     disrupting the force field will be enough! [06:12] G     Fire! [06:48] Kongou     They've concealed themselves      by disrupting the force field... [06:52] Kongou     I will not let you escape. [06:59] Shizuka     The force field turbulence     is about to subside. [07:02] G     Cut engines. [07:03] G     Don't let us be detected. [07:05] Iori     Roger! [07:05] Kiri     Why are we hiding? [07:07] Takao     It's obvious that we're at [07:09] ---     a disadvantage in terms     of both output and firepower. [07:11] Takao     Direct confrontation would be pointless. [07:14] Sou     Captain... [07:15] Sou     We are transporting the     vibration warhead sample. [07:19] Sou     If we're sunk here, [07:21] Sou     it'd mean the end of any     hope for humanity's future. [07:24] Kyo     We came all this way hoping to change the future. [07:28] Kyo     We ran away from school, [07:30] Kyo     and even became fugitives     from the government. [07:32] Iori     Why're we talking about this now? [07:34] Iori     Gunzou, we've been ready for this forever. [07:37] Shizuka     We're going to change the world     with our own hands, right? [07:41] G     That's right. [07:43] G     We started this fight to bring     change to this closed world. [07:48] G     We can't wait for someone else to do it. [07:51] G     Unless we start it ourselves, [07:53] G     the world will not change. [07:57] G     We can't stop now. [08:00] I     Gunzou. [08:02] I     I'll go persuade Kongou. [08:06] All     Huh? [08:07] Kiri     Do you even know what you're saying? [08:08] Kiri     The concept comm system network     is being kept under protection! [08:12] I     I won't use the network. [08:14] I     I'll make a direct connection. [08:15] All     What?! [08:17] H     It's possible, if you make direct     contact with Kongou's core, but— [08:19] Hyu     Sister Iona! [08:21] Hyu     The possibility of you evading enemy     fire and reaching it is basically zero! [08:24] I     It's not zero. [08:26] I     Hyuuga, help me. [08:28] Hyu     This is unacceptable! [08:30] I     Please. [08:35] Hyu     You're an idiot, Sister Iona. [08:38] I     Kongou... is hurt. [08:41] Kiri     She seems to be undamaged at this time. [08:43] I     It's her heart. [08:45] H     But... [08:46] H     There's no proof that such a thing exists. [08:50] Kiri     Why did we end up with such     bothersome logic routines? [08:55] Takao     Weren't we just weapons? [08:57] G     It's not about what you were. [09:00] G     It's about who you are now. [09:04] H     Who we are now... [09:07] Makie     Haruharu... [09:08] I     I want to save Kongou. [09:13] I     There's no reason why we have to fight. [09:15] I     And above all, [09:16] I     a motivation beyond my processing     capabilities is compelling me. [09:22] I     Gunzou, is this what "will" is? [09:24] Hyu     Will... [09:25] H     Will... [09:28] Takao     Will... [09:31] G     Iona, can you save Kongou? [09:35] I     Gunzou, [09:37] ---     give me the order. [09:39] G     Iona, you will proceed to     make physical contact [09:42] G     with the core of flag ship     Kongou's mental model. [09:45] G     Bring her back under control. [09:49] I     Understood! [10:02] G     We will now begin a special operation. [10:05] G     After disengaging Iona, [10:06] G     transfer core systems to Takao. [10:11] Takao     T-minus 210 seconds until [10:13] ---     we enter effective range     for suppression SSM. [10:18] Kongou     There you are... [10:21] Kongou     Maya, let's start the carnival. [10:30] Shizuka     Confirmed launch of 200... [10:33] Shizuka     300... [10:35] Shizuka     512 missiles.

[10:53] H     Klein Field will reach     saturation in 53 seconds. [10:56] Makie     Recalculated time to     reaching effective range [10:59] Makie     is 180 seconds! [11:07] Shizuka     Supergravity cannon has ceased fire! [11:09] Shizuka     Detecting multiple incoming corrosive torpedoes! [11:12] Shizuka     Impact in two seconds! [11:16] Shizuka     Klein Field going down! [11:20] G     Flood tube one! [11:21] Kyo     Hey! [11:22] Kyo     We're still out of range! [11:23] G     This is the only chance we've got! [11:25] G     Launch! [11:34] G     Provide cover fire! [11:36] Kiri     Damn it all! [12:22] Kongou     Fall. [12:56] Kongou     Why did you come here, 401? [13:00] I     To stop you. [13:12] Kongou     I don't know what you're talking about. [13:31] I     Please, listen to me! [13:53] Kongou     Just what are you? [13:56] I     Kongou... [14:00] Kongou     Physical contact? [14:02] I     I'm sorry for being late. [14:17] I     Link complete. [14:19] I     Kongou... [14:25] I     I'm being rejected... [14:27] Kongou     Don't come any closer! [14:28] I     Kongou? [14:30] Kongou     Don't come in. [14:32] I     No! [14:33] I     If I don't, you'll bring death upon yourself! [14:40] I     I have learned what death means. [14:43] I     It is very sad. [14:51] I     It's sad, so... [14:53] I     I don't want to lose you! [14:57] Kongou     Don't touch me! [15:13] Kongou     Why does someone like you     exist among the Fog? [15:20] I     I don't know. [15:23] I     That's why I've continued my journey. [15:29] I     And I have learned... [15:32] I     both joy and grief. [15:36] Kongou     The Fog must be united. [15:39] Kongou     Free will is unnecessary. [15:45] Kongou     Having free will... would make us human! [15:50] I     You're too set in your ways. [15:53] I     Why do you reject change?! [15:56] Kongou     "Change"? [15:58] Kongou     I call this a malfunction! [16:02] I     That's not true! [16:04] Kongou     Then what is this agony that     disrupts my mental processes? [16:08] Kongou     I feel as though I'll be crushed [16:10] Kongou     by the anger and grief     surging from within! [16:39] I     Kongou... [17:00] Kongou     What is with you? [17:06] Kongou     Such a bother. [17:17] Kongou     The remaining energy of     the supergravity cannon [17:21] Kongou     will obliterate both of our cores. [17:32] Kongou     Disappear with me. [17:36] G     Fire! [17:46] Hyu     What about Sister Iona?! [17:47] Kyo     We'd never let her get hit! [17:49] G     Iona! [17:52] I     Gunzou... [18:02] Kongou     Your readings are off the charts. [18:04] Kongou     Where have you been storing so much power? [18:07] I     Even without any of my power... [18:11] I     the will to stop you... [18:14] I     is moving me forward! [18:21] I     Kongou... [18:23] ---     Here I come. [18:34] Kongou     Cheater! [18:36] Kongou     Don't... touch me! [18:47] Kongou     Why?! [18:48] Kongou     Why can't things stay the way they are?! [18:51] Kongou     I don't need change! [18:53] Kongou     I don't need relationships! [18:54] Kongou     I was fine being alone! [18:56] Kongou     I never wanted to become     aware of the outside world! [19:09] Kongou     Why... [19:13] I     Kongou... [19:14] Kongou     Stop! [19:53] I     It's going to be okay. [19:56] I     If we can connect, [19:59] I     and understand each other... [20:02] I     you don't have to be afraid anymore. [20:05] Kongou     What's the point of     understanding each other? [20:09] I     Then we can become friends. [20:39] Kongou     I see. [20:53] Shizuka     Confirming Iona's call sign... [20:57] Shizuka     Mental model Iona... [21:00] Shizuka     is alive! [21:01] All     Yeah! [21:02] ?     Jeez. [21:04] Iori     Yes! [21:08] G     Iona... [21:21] I     Kongou... [21:23] Kongou     Yes. [21:25] I     Come with us, Kongou. [21:29] Kongou     That... [21:32] Kongou     is still difficult for me to accept right now. [21:38] Kongou     It'll be all right. [21:40] Kongou     Even if we're apart, we're connected. [21:45] Kongou     I believe we've always been. [21:50] Kongou     If I get lonely, I'll come by for tea. [21:54] I     Okay. [21:59] Kongou     401, [22:01] Kongou     what norms constitute     the basis for your existence? [22:06] I     My own will. [22:09] Kongou     I see. [22:11] Kongou     Thank you. [23:28] G     Hey, Iona. [23:31] G     Do you remember the time we met? [23:34] I     I do. [23:36] G     How did I look? [23:39] I     You looked pathetic. [23:41] G     Back then, I wanted to bring     change to this world. [23:48] I     Do you think you succeeded? [23:51] G     Yes, the world will change. [23:54] G     Thank you, Iona.
