[00:36] Sign 0037
    Fleet of Fog
[00:40] Crew
    Enemy still in sight!
[00:41] Crew
    They're neutralizing our attacks!
[00:44] Captain
    All of humanity's remaining firepower
    has been gathered for this fight.
[00:49] Captain
    Yet, even this much firepower is not enough—
[01:22] Narr
    By the start of the 21st century,
[01:24] Narr
    humanity had lost most of its terrestrial territory
[01:27] Narr
    due to global climate change and other factors.
[01:31] Narr
    As if in response to this predicament,
[01:34] Narr
    an enemy of unknown origin,
    the Fleet of Fog, appeared
[01:37] Narr
    and blockaded all shipping routes.
[01:39] Narr
    Humanity was driven out of the seas.
SIGN    Tokyo, Splinter Capital
[01:45] Sign 0149
    Seven years after humanity's
    last stand against the Fleet,
[01:48] Sign 0149
    their governments and
    economies were in shambles.
[01:50] Sign 0149
    Their communication satellites
    and undersea cables were destroyed,
[01:54] Sign 0149
    and all communications
    were jammed by the enemy.
[02:00] Sign 0149
    Every nation-state was effectively isolated.
[02:03] Sign 0149
    Merely confirming one another's continued
    existence was next to impossible.

[05:49] Shizuka
    The launch of the intercontinental
    communication SSTO is a success!
[05:54] K
    Phew, thank God.
[05:57] Sou
    Does Japan even have anything
    to transmit overseas anymore?
[06:01] K
    They must, since they launched it, right?
[06:13] Iona
    Nagara, you were just following orders.
[06:18] Gunzou
    Iona,
[06:21] ---
    are you all right?
[06:23] Iona
    I'm tired from the Klein Field.
[06:25] Gunzou
    I see.
[06:29] Gunzou
    Why did you turn up?
[06:32] Gunzou
    What is the purpose of your existence?
[06:35] Iona
    I don't know.
[06:37] Iona
    We merely exist to follow orders.
[06:40] Gunzou
    Do you engage in battle
    because I order you to?
[06:44] Iona
    Yeah.
[06:46] Iona
    I...
[06:48] Iona
    I am your ship.

    Was Chihaya Gunzou also selected
    to be on the inspection team?
[07:07] B
    Well, he's one of the top students.
SIGN    Summons
    The following individuals are to report
    at the specified date, time, and place.
     Date: September 14, 1400 hours
     Location: Lecture Hall 201,
     Officer Cadet Campus
     Summoning:
     Chihaya Gunzou Ikaruga Gorou
     Ikuma Keita Katose Seiji
     Asai Sei Nihei Eiko
     Watabe Mami
    Marine Technical Academy Headmaster
[07:09] C
    That's not the only reason, is it?
[07:11] C
    He's the only son of a
    captain who died in battle.
[07:14] C
    Unlike us, he gets special treatment.
[07:17] B
    Oh, about that...
[07:19] B
    Are the rumors that his father
    defected to the Fog true?
[07:23] C
    Who knows?
[07:24] C
    What happened at the Great Naval
     Battle is still classified.
[07:27] A
    Either way, there's just
    something shady about him.
[07:33] Officer
    What you are about to see is top secret.
[07:37] Officer
    You have been granted
    special privilege to see it
[07:40] Officer
    because you have
     a bright future ahead.
[07:42] D
    Top secret...
[07:44] Officer
    As future officers,
[07:46] Officer
    you have the right to know.
[07:48] Gunzou
    What a joke.
[07:49] Gunzou
    They're just trying to pass on the torch.
[07:52] Sign 0754
    Warehouse 51
[08:10] Gunzou
    It's the submarine I-401...
[08:14] Gunzou
    Why is it here?
[08:16] Officer
    This is a captured Fog ship.
[08:19] Officer
    Although its appearance mimics
    that of a Pacific War submarine,
[08:23] Officer
    it is not of human origin.
[08:26] E
    So this is what the brass was hiding?
[08:29] G
    It's no surprise that they'd
    keep it from the public.
[08:32] Officer
    After the Great Naval Battle,
[08:33] Officer
    this submarine appeared at this
    harbor with all of its weapons locked.
[08:37] Officer
    Its reasons for doing so are unknown.
[08:40] Officer
    It allowed us to seize it with no resistance.
[08:44] F
    So, if we can understand how it works,
[08:46] F
    we might also find the
    Fleet of Fog's weakness?
[08:47] Officer
    We might.
[08:49] Officer
    But, we've been researching
    it for seven years.
[08:51] Officer
    We've tried everything we could think of,
[08:53] Officer
    but it has remained unyielding.
[08:57] D
    We have been unable to
    take it apart, as well?
[08:59] Officer
    Sadly enough.
[09:02] Gunzou
    A Fog ship...
[09:04] Gunzou
    An enemy of humanity...
[09:08] Iona
    A human.
[09:12] Iona
    Chihaya Gunzou...
[09:17] Officer
    Wh-What?!
[09:18] Lab1
    Hey!
[09:18] Lab1
    Collect data!
[09:19] Lab2
    What, graviton readings?!
[09:21] Lab1
    401 is activating!
[09:23] Officer
    What?!
[09:24] Officer
    Why now?
[09:24] Lab2
    We don't know!
[09:25] Officer
    Damn it!
[09:26] Officer
    Don't let this get out!
[09:27] Officer
    Close the ceiling armor, now!
[09:30] Officer
    Evacuate! Hurry!
[09:50] A
    Who's that?
[09:51] B
    I don't remember seeing her around.
[09:53] C
    Huh?
[10:03] Iona
    Found you, Chihaya Gunzou.
[10:18] K
    Huh?
[10:19] K
    What's your name again?
[10:21] K
    Are you looking for someo—
[10:23] K
    Wow, you're a total babe!
[10:25] Iona
    No, I have no business with you.
[10:27] K
    Huh?
[10:28] K
    Hey!
[10:33] Iori
    Whoa, you're a pretty one.
[10:35] Iori
    Need something?
[10:38] Iona
    You are Chihaya Gunzou.
[10:41] Gunzou
    Yeah, so?
[10:42] Iona
    Son of Chihaya Shouzou.
[10:45] Gunzou
    What about my dad?
[10:48] Iona
    I have been ordered to meet
    the son of Chihaya Shouzou.
[10:52] Gunzou
    "Ordered"?
[10:55] Gunzou
    Is this a new prank?
[10:58] Gunzou
    This crap is all you guys ever think about.
[11:00] Iona
    No, this is not a prank.
[11:02] Gunzou
    Then why mention my dead father's name?
[11:05] Iona
    Because it is the truth.
[11:07] Gunzou
    Who are you?
[11:09] Iona
    Iona...
[11:10] Iona
    That is the name I was given.
[11:12] Gunzou
    Iona?
[11:13] Iona
    We can't talk here.
[11:19] Gunzou
    What'd you just do?
[11:21] Iona
    Come tonight. Alone.
[11:23] Gunzou
    Hey...
[11:24] Sou
    What the hell?
[11:25] K
    Gunzou, what's going on?!
[11:27] K
    Why would a girl hit on a stiff like you?
[11:44] Iona
    Squishy?
[11:49] Iona
    Sensation...
[11:51] Iona
    This is to be human.
[12:05] Gunzou
    I'm here.
[12:06] Gunzou
    Let's hear why you dragged me out here.
[12:09] Iona
    To be precise, I am the one
    who has been waiting.
[12:13] Gunzou
    I'm going back.
[12:14] Iona
    No.
[12:15] Gunzou
    I don't have time to play games with strangers.
[12:19] Iona
    You have eleven hours until the wake-up call.
[12:23] Gunzou
    That's not what I meant.
[12:25] Gunzou
    I just don't want to waste my
    time on anything meaningless.
[12:28] Iona
    Am I meaningless?
[12:31] Gunzou
    Just tell me what you want.
[12:33] Iona
    To meet Gunzou, the son of
    Chihaya Shouzou, and obey him.
[12:38] Iona
    That is the only order that
    remains in my memory.
[12:42] Iona
    I have been isolated from the
    outside world for seven years.
[12:46] Gunzou
    Seven years?
[12:47] Gunzou
    Who are you?
[12:49] Iona
    I obey the orders I have
    been given... I am a tool.
[12:59] Gunzou
    What are you?
[13:01] Iona
    Chihaya Gunzou.
[13:03] Iona
    I have been ordered to obey you.
[13:06] Iona
    I know nothing else.
[13:10] Iona
    Confirm: What is your purpose?
[13:13] Gunzou
    My purpose?
[13:19] Gunzou
    I...
[13:24] Gunzou
    I want the strength... to break
    the stagnant status quo.
[13:30] Gunzou
    Even if we stay here,
[13:32] Gunzou
    our time will only go to
    waste while we do nothing.
[13:35] Gunzou
    That's not what I'm living for!
[13:38] Iona
    Understood.
[13:40] Iona
    At last, I can activate.
[14:10] Iona
    I-401, launching.
[14:19] Operator
    I-401 has left the top secret dock!
[14:22] Officer
    That's impossible!
[14:24] Operator
    But sir, it's true!
[14:25] Officer
    What is going on?
[14:44] Gunzou
    401...
[14:45] Iona
    This is me.
[14:47] Gunzou
    Are you... with the Fog?
[14:53] Gunzou
    The enemy?
[14:54] Iona
    I don't know.
[14:56] Iona
    I only know one thing:
[14:57] Iona
    make contact with you, and obey.
[15:01] Iona
    That is the only order that
     remains in my memory.
[15:06] Iona
    We are weapons.
[15:08] Iona
    We engage in battle under orders.
[15:11] Iona
    That is our entire existence.
[15:13] Iona
    That is why we desire orders.
[15:24] Gunzou
    401.
[15:28] Gunzou
    Become my ship!
[15:40] Iona
    Gunzou...
[15:43] Iona
    Come aboard me.
[15:47] Gunzou
    We'll go through their barrier.
[15:48] Gunzou
    Don't counterattack.
[15:50] Iona
    Okay.
[15:58] Gunzou
    Can you withstand this?
[15:59] Iona
    For a little while.
[16:00] Gunzou
    How long?
[16:02] Iona
    Thirty seconds.
[16:03] Gunzou
    What?!
[16:04] Iona
    This is my first time allowing
    a human body on board.
[16:06] Iona
    My calculations are not fast enough.
[16:07] Gunzou
    Can you dive?
[16:09] Iona
    My graviton ballasts
    have not been set up.
[16:20] Iona
    5 seconds until Klein Field down.
[16:22] Iona

[16:23] Iona
    3...
[16:24] Iona
    2...
[16:25] Iona

    Klein Field down.
[16:31] Iona
    Taking hits on stern.
[16:33] Gunzou
    Damn it!
[16:34] Gunzou
    If I can't change anything right now,
[16:37] Gunzou
    it means I'm as good as dead!
[16:39] Gunzou
    Please!
[16:41] Iona
    Graviton ballasts.
[16:43] Iona
    Setup complete.
[16:45] Iona
    Standby.
[16:45] Gunzou
    Dive!
[16:57] Operator
    401, lost.
[17:00] Iona
    Are you all right?
[17:01] Gunzou
    What about you?
[17:03] Gunzou
    What are your passive sonar readings?
[17:05] Iona
    No enemy sonar contact
    within detection range.
[17:08] Gunzou
    End combat.
[17:13] Gunzou
    H-Hey!
[17:14] Iona
    I was so nervous.
[17:16] Iona
    That was the first time I had a captain.
[17:18] Gunzou
    401...
[17:20] Iona
    I am Iona.
[17:21] Gunzou
    What?
[17:22] Iona
    I was named as such,
    according to my memory.
[17:25] Gunzou
    Iona...
[17:30] Gunzou
    Ever since then,
    we've been fugitives.
[17:32] Iona
    Yeah.
[17:34] Iona
    I am a ship.
[17:35] Iona
    I belong to the captain.
[17:37] Iona
    Take me with you...
    to the answer you seek.
[17:42] Gunzou
    All right.
[17:45] Kamikage
    Good.
[17:47] Kamikage
    Not bad at all for a traitor of the Fog.
[17:55] Sign 1756
    Nagasaki, Splinter Capital
SIGN    Kamikage Ryuujirou Assistant Secretary, Ministry of Military Affairs
[18:03] Kamikage
    Nice work on the SSTO job, Chihaya Gunzou-kun.
[18:08] Gunzou
    So you're Kamikage-san, our client?
[18:11] Gunzou
    If you had hired us earlier,
[18:14] Gunzou
    we could have reduced the
    damage taken by the military.
[18:16] Kamikage
    Due to the Fog's jamming,
[18:17] Kamikage
    we cannot use long-range comm systems.
[18:20] Kamikage
    Don't ask the impossible of us.
[18:22] Kamikage
    Besides, we adults have our reasons.
[18:25] Gunzou
    Politics, is that it?
[18:27] Gunzou
    That's an excuse.
[18:29] Gunzou
    It's just a detour, isn't that right?
[18:33] Kamikage
    Not everyone can do as you do.
[18:35] Kamikage
    Someone has to do the dirty work, too.
[18:38] Gunzou
    Is that so?
[18:41] Gunzou
    Well, we have finished the job.
[18:43] Gunzou
    We'll be leaving now.
[18:45] Kamikaze
    Will you stop that?
[18:46] Kamikaze
    If anything were to happen to him...
[18:49] Kamikaze
    she will attack us.
[18:53] Kamikage
    Chihaya-kun, will your battles lead
    to a way out of this impasse?
[18:58] Kamikage
    Don't misunderstand.
[19:00] Kamikage
    I think highly of your combat
    records over the past
[19:04] ---
    two years in your battle against the Fog.
[19:07] Gunzou
    What's your point?
[19:10] Kamikage
    We just received word that the SSTO
    was destroyed while in orbit.
[19:18] Kamikage
    In it was a sample of a new
    weapon developed by Japan,
[19:21] Kamikage
    the vibration warhead.
[19:24] Gunzou
    Vibration warhead?
[19:25] Kamikage
    Indeed.
[19:27] Kamikage
    It is not as though we were
    idle during the two years
[19:31] Kamikage
    that you were taking on the Fog by yourself.
[19:34] Gunzou
    Why America?
[19:35] Kamikage
    Japan no longer has the resources
    to manufacture them en masse.
[19:40] Kamikage
    Chihaya Gunzou-kun,
[19:42] Kamikage
    I'd like to ask another task of you.
[19:45] Kamikage
    I'd like you to carry the hope of humanity...
[19:48] Kamikage
    our last hope.
[19:51] K
    A new weapon?
[19:53] K
    A torpedo, then?
[19:55] Sou
    It seems they have finished analyzing
    the Fog's corrosive torpedo
[19:58] Sou
    and made further improvements.
[20:00] Sou
    Much of it is a black box,
[20:02] Sou
    but it does seem that man could strike back
[20:04] Sou
    if this can be mass produced.
[20:08] Gunzou
    If America still even exists.
[20:10] K
    Don't be such a downer.
[20:12] Gunzou
    The secret agreement with America
    was made three months ago,
[20:17] Gunzou
    after which all communications ceased.
[20:18] Gunzou
    We don't know what things
    are like there, now.
[20:21] Iori
    Iona, are you sure you can't tell?
[20:23] Iona
    I am cut off from the fleet.
[20:27] Iona
    All I know is what I've been able to detect.
[20:31] Iori
    That's true...
[20:32] Shizuka
    So, direct transport by sea is our only option.
[20:35] K
    They do say the continent
     is torn by civil strife.
[20:38] K
    It'd be too dangerous to go by land.
[20:42] Shizuka
    To think we can't trust our fellow humans.
[20:45] Sou
    And that's why you took the job, Captain?
[20:48] Gunzou
    Yeah.
[20:49] Gunzou
    We're the only ones who
    can make this happen.
[20:53] Gunzou
    The handoff for the new
     weapon sample will take place
[20:55] ---
    at the Port of Yokosuka.
[20:56] Iona
    Understood.
[20:58] Iona
    Setting course for Yokosuka.
[21:00] Gunzou
    Let's go get this last hope for humanity.
[21:07] Kamikage
    Hope for humanity, huh?
[21:11] Security
    Couldn't we have subdued I-401?
[21:15] Kamikage
    401 is sentient.
[21:18] Kamikage
    It only obeys Chihaya Gunzou.
[21:21] Security
    Because it has a Mental Model?
[21:24] Kamikage
    A traitor to the Fog,
    and a traitor to humanity...
[21:28] Kamikage
    An interesting combination, isn't it?

[21:45] Kongou
    So, we've lost Nagara.
[21:49] Kongou
    I've become quite used to
    this embodied existence,
[21:53] Kongou
    but it's still loathsome.
[21:54] Kongou
    We are weapons.
[21:56] Maya
    Kongou!
[21:58] Kongou
    Maya?
[21:59] Kongou
    What is it?
[22:00] Maya
    I'm bored.

[22:02] Maya
    401 is on the move, isn't she?
[22:04] Maya
    Isn't there something for me to do?
[22:07] Kongou
    If she's headed north,
    that's Takao's jurisdiction.
[22:11] Kongou
    We can just let her handle it.
[22:14] Maya
    Ah, jeez.
[22:15] Maya
    Can't we just forget the jurisdiction thing?
[22:17] Kongou
    We are battleships.
[22:19] Kongou
    We follow orders from the Admirality Code.
[22:22] Kongou
    That's all.
[22:23] Maya
    Aw, man!
[22:24] Maya
    You're such a stick in the mud!
[22:26] Maya
    Nyah!
[22:28] Kongou
    Hmph.
[22:29] Kongou
    You are such a pain.
[22:31] Kongou
    Takao!
[22:33] Takao
    I see.

[22:34] Takao
    401's headed this way?

    I'll turn you to dust.
