**[00:05] ---**
What's wrong, Aries?
**[00:08] ---**
This is strange.
**[00:09] ---**
I don't remember you, Charce.
**[00:13] ---**
I went to biology class many times after
I transferred in, before leaving for camp.
**[00:19] ---**
I have no doubt that Charce
was not in that class.
**[00:23] ---**
Charce, are you...
**[00:26] ---**
Are you hiding something?
**[00:34] ---**
What does this mean?
**[00:36] ---**
Charce, please explain.
**[00:39] ---**
So you trust Aries over me? That's sad.
**[00:48] ---**
I'm a transfer student.
**[00:51] ---**
I entered Caird High after Aries.
**[00:54] ---**
Right before camp.
**[00:56] ---**
What?!
**[00:57] ---**
Charce is a transfer student, too? Like Aries?
**[01:01] ---**
And right before camp...?
**[01:03] ---**
I transferred in on July 1st.
**[01:06] ---**
There was no biology class before July 4th.
**[01:10] ---**
Why didn't you tell us?!
**[01:12] ---**
I didn't think it was relevant.
Is this all that important?
**[01:16] ---**
But... when Aries brought up the fact
that she's a transfer student,
**[01:20] ---**
wouldn't the natural reaction be
to talk about yourself? It's weird!
**[01:23] ---**
We all like you, Charce.
**[01:26] ---**
Without your achievements,
we wouldn't have made it this far.
**[01:30] ---**
We're all very grateful.
**[01:32] ---**
But one thing that bothers me is that
you almost never talk about yourself.
**[01:39] ---**
Don't you see us as your friends?
**[01:42] ---**
It's not up to us to decide how much
personal information he wants to discuss.
**[01:46] ---**
I'm sure there are things he doesn't want
to talk about, like any of us.
**[01:50] ---**
But we're not under normal circumstances.
**[01:52] ---**
Saying you transferred in right before camp
**[01:55] ---**
is almost like admitting you're
the enemy sent in to kill us.
**[01:58] ---**
Charce, explain why you didn't tell us.
**[02:02] ---**
If I refuse?
**[02:04] ---**
I'd have to lock you up.
**[02:08] ---**
Okay, fine. Solid performance, Captain.
**[02:13] ---**
I didn't mention the transfer because
I didn't want to talk about my family.
**[02:17] ---**
I could have made up a more plausible story,
but I didn't want to lie to you.
**[02:22] ---**
Because you all are my friends.
**[02:27] ---**
I'm from a noble family
in the Vixia Royal Quarter.
**[02:31] ---**
Vixia Royal Quarter?!
**[02:33] ---**
Seriously?!
**[02:34] ---**
I've never heard of that, what's Vixia?
**[02:37] ---**
It's the only part of the world
where there are kings and nobles.
**[02:41] ---**
I didn't talk about this because
I was told not to discuss it...
**[02:46] ---**
And also because I wanted to forget about it.
**[02:51] ---**
After the end of the world war, a global
government was established in 1963 A.D.
**[02:58] ---**
All nations were reorganized,
and Vixia was the only one that was allowed
**[03:04] ---**
to maintain rule by royalty.
**[03:05] ---**
Life there is idyllic.
Science and technology are restricted,
**[03:12] ---**
maintaining a sort of pretend-Medieval era.
**[03:15] ---**
It has a fairy tale feel to it,
so it's a popular tourist destination.
**[03:21] ---**
But the central area, surrounded by walls,
**[03:24] ---**
is off limits to tourists and ordinary citizens.
**[03:28] ---**
It's where the royalty and nobles live.
**[03:31] ---**
I was born into a noble family.
**[03:38] ---**
Phew, I made it out!
**[03:41] ---**
Come here, Seira.
**[03:46] ---**
You're right! No alarms!
**[03:49] ---**
I found a crack and opened it up a little.
**[03:52] ---**
They'll find it and fix it soon,
but we can play in the noble area today!
**[03:57] ---**
But this noble's outfit won't fool them--
they'll know I'm a commoner.
**[04:03] ---**
Don't worry! You look great!
Just like I imagined!
**[04:08] ---**
Thanks, Charce...
But you're being kind of creepy.
**[04:14] ---**
Seira was a commoner, but we got along well,
so we hung out a lot.
**[04:19] ---**
Of course, normally we met
in the commoner area.
**[04:22] ---**
But that day, I took a risk
and invited her into the nobles' area.
**[04:27] ---**
There was a place I wanted to take her.
**[04:30] ---**
The royal zoo?
**[04:31] ---**
You said you wanted to visit there, right?
**[04:34] ---**
There are lots of unique animals there!
**[04:36] ---**
I want to go!
**[04:38] ---**
Let's go, then!
**[04:39] ---**
Come on, hurry, hurry!
**[04:41] ---**
Careful, watch where you're going!
**[04:44] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[04:46] ---**
Wait!
**[04:47] ---**
This girl is a commoner.
How are you here without a permit?
**[04:52] ---**
I let her in!
**[04:54] ---**
How did you get in?!
**[04:55] ---**
Let go of me!
**[04:56] ---**
Are you a trespasser?
**[04:57] ---**
Please, wait!
**[04:58] ---**
Come here!
**[05:01] ---**
Dirty commoner!
**[05:05] ---**
Seira!
**[05:08] ---**
Seira!
**[05:13] ---**
--Someone fell!
--Hey, look!
**[05:14] ---**
Call a doctor!
**[05:18] ---**
Are you going to see that commoner girl again?
**[05:22] ---**
Know your place! You're a noble!
**[05:24] ---**
Nobles are just caged animals!
**[05:26] ---**
I'm going to live free!
**[05:30] ---**
Seira...
**[05:32] ---**
You've been asleep for a while now.
**[05:34] ---**
I'll visit you every day.
**[05:37] ---**
I'll study biology and teach you all about it.
**[05:40] ---**
When you wake up, we can go
to the forest with the squirrels.
**[05:44] ---**
Take your time.
**[05:46] ---**
Rest now, Seira...
**[05:50] ---**
Four years later, Seira's family left Vixia
without telling me where they went.
**[05:56] ---**
Seira is probably still quietly sleeping,
somewhere in the world.
**[06:00] ---**
A while later, I left Vixia as well.
**[06:05] ---**
"Lacroix" is my adopted mother's last name.
**[06:07] ---**
I'm sorry I kept this from you.
**[06:09] ---**
I lost a close friend
and cut ties with my family.
**[06:13] ---**
I was just getting started with a new life,
and my head wasn't clear yet.
**[06:18] ---**
That's why I never got around
to discussing any of this.
**[06:20] ---**
I'm truly sorry.
**[06:22] ---**
Seira...
**[06:24] ---**
"Gloom"
What?!
**[06:26] ---**
What... What's wrong, everyone?!
**[06:29] ---**
I'm sorry, Charce...
It must still be very difficult for you.
**[06:33] ---**
It was insensitive of me.
**[06:36] ---**
No, I should have told you sooner.
I didn't think this would interest you.
**[06:42] ---**
But do you have to cry so much?
It's about someone you don't even know.
**[06:46] ---**
Idiot!
**[06:48] ---**
It's about someone dear to you!
**[06:51] ---**
It doesn't matter if we know her or not!
**[06:59] ---**
Hey, what are you laughing about?!
**[07:01] ---**
Don't be mad. I laughed because you all cried.
**[07:04] ---**
We're crying because we're sad!
**[07:07] ---**
And I'm glad you're crying.
**[07:09] ---**
So, we're crying because we're sad,
**[07:11] ---**
you're laughing because you're glad,
which made him mad.
**[07:13] ---**
--I left everything behind.
--Thanks for the confusing summary.
**[07:16] ---**
But why...
**[07:18] ---**
Another family...
**[07:23] ---**
I'll make more mushroom tea.
**[07:24] ---**
--Oh, for me, too, please.
--Thanks!
**[07:28] ---**
I'll help.
**[07:32] ---**
Seira must be very dear to you.
**[07:35] ---**
What is she like?
**[07:37] ---**
She's like you, Aries.
**[07:40] ---**
What?
**[07:43] ---**
Team B5, camp log.
**[07:45] ---**
With many different thoughts on our minds,
we approach the next planet.
**[08:00] ---**
I'm sorry, Seira.
**[08:09] ---**
"Planet Icriss
Day 75 of being lost in space"
**[08:11] ---**
Here we are, number four!
**[08:13] ---**
--♬ Turning, turning, the planet is turning! ♬
--We had a few bumps, but overall
this has been a good trip.
**[08:16] ---**
--♬ Turning, turning, the planet is turning! ♬
--I'm starting to get used to it.
**[08:20] ---**
--♬ It turns with our hopes on board! ♬
**[08:23] ---**
--What are they doing?
--♬ It turns with our hopes on board! ♬
**[08:25] ---**
--Caird High, choir competition set piece,
"The Planet Turns."
--♬ It turns with our hopes on board! ♬
**[08:30] ---**
No, this one isn't turning.
**[08:32] ---**
What?!
**[08:34] ---**
To be precise, this planet's rotation
and orbital revolution are in sync.
**[08:38] ---**
So the sun never sets there?
**[08:41] ---**
Great, sunshine!
**[08:43] ---**
That's kind of exciting, isn't it? Yeah!
**[08:47] ---**
Idiots!
**[08:49] ---**
It's a burning death zone!
No water, and definitely no life!
**[08:55] ---**
What?! Who just said "Yeah!"?
**[08:57] ---**
You did!
**[08:59] ---**
So the other side is...
**[09:01] ---**
Frozen, dark, death zone.
**[09:04] ---**
Oh Zack, please tell us there's a place
to find liquid water and life?
**[09:09] ---**
According to the data on the planet list, yes.
**[09:12] ---**
This would be where to look.
**[09:14] ---**
The belt separating the two death zones.
**[09:16] ---**
Good, we know where to land. Let's go!
**[09:28] ---**
So this is Planet Icriss.
**[09:32] ---**
Are those trees?
They're the size of skyscrapers.
**[09:38] ---**
What are these, birds?!
**[09:40] ---**
So huge...
**[09:43] ---**
They're not attacking us. They also seem
lighter in weight relative to their size.
**[09:48] ---**
Seems close to insects. We should be okay
as long as we're on the ship.
**[09:53] ---**
Oh, balloons.
**[09:55] ---**
What?
**[10:00] ---**
What?!
**[10:01] ---**
What is this, electricity?
It's dropping the insects that touch it!
**[10:05] ---**
Zack! Sparks! Dodge! Don't touch!
**[10:09] ---**
I know! If you're going to give commands,
keep it together!
**[10:13] ---**
Did we... make it through?
**[10:16] ---**
What was all that about?!
**[10:18] ---**
Probably a type of carnivorous plant.
**[10:21] ---**
It seems like this region has many plants
that ensnare and eat flying creatures.
**[10:26] ---**
Then let's land quickly, Kanata!
**[10:29] ---**
No, not yet. This area isn't safe.
**[10:32] ---**
If we get out of the sunlight a bit more,
we shouldn't see any more of those plants.
**[10:37] ---**
Head towards the cold area!
**[10:39] ---**
Aye, yeah.
**[10:50] ---**
What is this?!
**[10:52] ---**
It's breaking the ship apart!
**[10:54] ---**
Shake it off, Zack!
**[10:59] ---**
This thing is too strong!
**[11:02] ---**
It's a mass of muscle! Is it really a plant?!
**[11:06] ---**
Hold on! I'm making it spin!
**[11:23] ---**
Yes!
**[11:24] ---**
We made it out!
**[11:30] ---**
What's wrong?!
**[11:31] ---**
Error reported in the control system!
**[11:33] ---**
I'm losing attitude and deceleration controls!
**[11:36] ---**
What?!
**[11:37] ---**
Watch the cliffs!
**[11:38] ---**
I don't have portside controls!
I can't turn left!
**[11:41] ---**
Why is this happening all at once?!
Too many things!
**[11:45] ---**
Things were too easy until now! This must be
what space adventure is really like.
**[11:54] ---**
I'm counting on you, Zack...
**[11:56] ---**
This is our only ship.
**[11:58] ---**
If it breaks, we're done for...
**[12:01] ---**
I've got this. I can do it...
**[12:05] ---**
Almost there...
**[12:09] ---**
A gust?!
**[12:49] ---**
The *Astra*...
**[12:52] ---**
...has lost navigation.
**[13:07] ---**
I took a look at the damaged parts.
**[13:09] ---**
The bridge and the aft engines are fine.
It can fly a little.
**[13:14] ---**
A little...?
**[13:16] ---**
We can't go to space. We can't fix it, either.
**[13:21] ---**
The fore reactors are completely broken.
**[13:24] ---**
We can't generate energy
for super high-speed travel.
**[13:26] ---**
We have no parts, no tools, no dock.
**[13:29] ---**
We can slowly move the ship across
the surface, but not get to space.
**[13:34] ---**
What's going to happen to us...?
**[13:37] ---**
Our trip ends here.
We have to live on this planet.
**[13:41] ---**
You've got to be kidding me!
**[13:43] ---**
How are we supposed to live on this planet?!
**[13:46] ---**
Only the front part is damaged.
The residential area is fine.
**[13:50] ---**
We can live on the ship.
**[13:52] ---**
That's not what I'm talking about.
I want to go home, to my actual home!
**[13:57] ---**
That's just not possible.
Do I need to repeat the explanation?
**[14:03] ---**
Please say you're lying...
**[14:15] ---**
So it's really over? No more going home?
**[14:18] ---**
Why did this happen?!
**[14:24] ---**
It's my fault. If I paid more attention
when flying the ship...
**[14:28] ---**
No, you did well. The responsibility
is mine, as the commander.
**[14:34] ---**
I thought we could get home if we
worked together, one step at a time...
**[14:42] ---**
You're out of character, boss man.
**[14:45] ---**
I thought you're supposed to act tough
when things look bad.
**[14:49] ---**
Isn't there something
in your survival tips thing?
**[14:52] ---**
Like, "If you stand still you don't move
forward" or something?
**[14:56] ---**
Ulgar...
**[15:00] ---**
Yeah. You're right. I'm sorry.
**[15:04] ---**
Wherever we're going to live, we need to eat.
**[15:07] ---**
We're running out of food.
Let's go and explore this place.
**[15:11] ---**
Survival tip number 10: If you stand still
you don't move forward!
**[15:14] ---**
You totally made that up right now!
**[15:20] ---**
Thanks, Ulgar.
**[15:26] ---**
It's starting to snow!
**[15:28] ---**
"Food search party
Charce, Ulgar, Luca, Yunhua, Funicia"
We're close to the boundary
between the belt area and the frozen area.
**[15:32] ---**
We can see the sun, but we'll still freeze
if we don't wear our suits.
**[15:37] ---**
I see berries. Are those edible?
**[15:41] ---**
Yummy.
**[15:42] ---**
It's edible.
**[15:43] ---**
Ulgar, you're impressive.
It's nice watching you work.
**[15:47] ---**
I see a few berries, but no animals around.
**[15:51] ---**
Can we catch those big bugs?
**[15:55] ---**
That might be hard.
**[15:57] ---**
We'd need nets the size of soccer goals.
**[16:01] ---**
So... everyone's accepted it now?
**[16:04] ---**
You have nerves of steel. I can't do that.
**[16:07] ---**
They're just trying to keep up appearances.
**[16:10] ---**
We'll get swallowed up by despair if we don't
do anything, so we do what we can.
**[16:16] ---**
Nobody can accept hopelessness so quickly.
**[16:21] ---**
Ulgar, I didn't realize you're scared, too.
**[16:25] ---**
Who would've thought with that
"I'm ready for anything" look.
**[16:27] ---**
I'm not scared!
**[16:32] ---**
Hey, Charce, let's go look over
there, too--behind the cliff.
**[16:37] ---**
Behind the cliff?
**[16:38] ---**
There won't be any plants
where the sun isn't shining.
**[16:41] ---**
Oh, right. But over there...
**[16:44] ---**
...I see something.
**[16:45] ---**
Hmm?
**[16:49] ---**
What is that...?
**[16:59] ---**
"Water search party
Kanata, Aries, Zack, Quitterie"
Good, there's no problem with the water.
**[17:02] ---**
Yeah, I'm glad we were able to move the ship.
**[17:06] ---**
Quitterie, you need to switch gears.
**[17:09] ---**
We have to think about surviving.
**[17:11] ---**
What's the point of surviving here?!
**[17:14] ---**
There were so many things I wanted to do.
**[17:17] ---**
Eat good food, dress well.
I had a vision of the future, too.
**[17:21] ---**
Go to college, become a doctor, get married...
**[17:25] ---**
But now...
**[17:27] ---**
...I'm stuck to die in this unknown place!
**[17:30] ---**
How can you be so calm?!
**[17:32] ---**
My job is to stay calm.
**[17:35] ---**
I cool down when others are panicking.
**[17:40] ---**
Quitterie, you have to decide
to live here with the others,
**[17:43] ---**
or place your bets on
a low probability, alone.
**[17:46] ---**
Low probability?
**[17:48] ---**
Did you know? The *Astra* has just one
functioning hibernation device.
**[17:54] ---**
You can use that to wait for help...
**[17:57] ---**
Wait for help?
**[17:58] ---**
How do you let people know
you're waiting for help here?
**[18:03] ---**
That's why I said "wait."
**[18:06] ---**
Betting on a low probability--
it might take decades, or centuries.
**[18:11] ---**
Long after the others die of old age,
you'd keep waiting, in your sleep.
**[18:16] ---**
Maybe nobody comes, but you bet on
the slim chance that someone will come
**[18:21] ---**
to explore this planet in the future.
**[18:25] ---**
Why... would you say that?
**[18:29] ---**
That's like telling me to die alone.
**[18:33] ---**
I'm sorry. That's the only way
I can think of to return home.
**[18:36] ---**
No! I don't want to be alone!
Are you an idiot?! Stop being so mean!
**[18:44] ---**
Let's live together. On this planet.
With the others.
**[18:50] ---**
Kanata, you look ready. I'm impressed.
**[18:55] ---**
You're giving me too much credit.
I'm not ready, and I might not be until I die.
**[19:00] ---**
I'll just have to move on however I can.
**[19:02] ---**
That said, I'm not very sensitive.
I feel like I can survive anywhere.
**[19:07] ---**
I was also hoping we could make a stone axe
or something and fix this,
**[19:11] ---**
over like ten years or so.
**[19:18] ---**
I'll be okay with that, too.
As long as you're around.
**[19:22] ---**
Huh?
**[19:22] ---**
I mean, so, um...
**[19:24] ---**
Yeah, I get it.
**[19:26] ---**
What?!
**[19:28] ---**
It's Charce. He wants us to come right away.
**[19:31] ---**
What happened?
**[19:33] ---**
Over there, by that cliff.
**[19:43] ---**
What... is this?
**[19:46] ---**
What does this mean?
**[19:48] ---**
I have no idea... I have no idea at all.
**[19:55] ---**
Why is there...
**[20:00] ---**
...another *Astra* on this planet...?
**[20:03] ---**
No, it's much more weathered,
and the damaged parts are different.
**[20:09] ---**
It's a different ship of the same type.
**[20:11] ---**
Let's go inside, a team of three.
**[20:13] ---**
Me, Zack, and...
**[20:17] ---**
Ulgar, come with us.
**[20:19] ---**
Yeah.
**[20:31] ---**
Power is active.
**[20:34] ---**
Going inside now.
**[20:40] ---**
Same internal structure...
**[20:45] ---**
This ship is in bad shape.
**[20:48] ---**
It's like a ruin.
**[20:51] ---**
Ship broke down, stuck on this planet...
Just like us, it seems.
**[20:57] ---**
With this much damage on the bridge,
this ship is incapable of space flight.
**[21:01] ---**
I see...
**[21:02] ---**
I checked the residential area.
There's no one there.
**[21:06] ---**
So maybe the crew was rescued
but the ship was left behind.
**[21:13] ---**
No, there's a message left behind.
**[21:16] ---**
"Help me"...
**[21:18] ---**
Weren't they rescued?!
Why leave a message on the ship?
**[21:21] ---**
Help... I get it!
**[21:25] ---**
It's the hibernation device!
**[21:32] ---**
The device is active.
**[21:34] ---**
There's someone inside.
**[21:36] ---**
July 2051... 12 years ago.
**[21:42] ---**
Twelve years... Waiting so long for help...
**[21:47] ---**
What should we do, Kanata?
**[21:51] ---**
Let's wake them.
**[22:08] ---**
It's a woman...
**[22:30] ---**
*The meteor shower, left to spill,
every second, every second*
**[22:37] ---**
*Even though I'm breathing,
the claw marks shred my chest*
**[22:45] ---**
*Why did the heat from one arm*
**[22:48] ---**
*Draw a destiny-colored trajectory*
**[22:52] ---**
*When the warm rain is bundled up*
**[22:55] ---**
*Wavering on the blue of the sky*
**[22:59] ---**
*Forever returning, going halfsies*
**[23:02] ---**
*Lives bound tightly together*
**[23:05] ---**
*Hearts taken away, trembling*
**[23:09] ---**
*Thank you, scars*
**[23:13] ---**
*Flowing lights, inerasable shattered galaxy*
**[23:16] ---**
*Looking back on the noisy shadow*
**[23:20] ---**
*Really, really, I want to change*
**[23:24] ---**
*That self that is right next to me*
**[23:27] ---**
*Infinitely bright, all the world, we feed back*
**[23:31] ---**
*The place where we arrive
at the end of a long journey*
**[23:34] ---**
*Can't see, can't see, I want to hold*
**[23:37] ---**
*Your hands gently in the light*
