[00:05] Young Natsuki
    I-It hurts... It hurts!
[00:14] Young Natsuki
    Help me... It's cold...
[00:23] Young Natsuki
    No... No!
[00:32] Young Natsuki
    Damn it! Damn it!
[00:36] Young Natsuki
    Mom...
[00:40] Young Natsuki
    Mom!
[00:51] Natsuki
    This again...
[00:52] Catherine
    You awake?
[00:54] Natsuki
    What are you doing here?
[00:58] Catherine
    Jeez, don't look so scary.
[01:03] Catherine
    I've brought you a ticket to
    become filthy rich, after all.
[01:09] Natsuki
    You're in my way.
    And your seductions won't work on me.
[01:12] Catherine
    Look at you, trying to act all grown up.
[01:16] Catherine
    Things will actually work out this time!
[01:18] Catherine
    I had a reliable connection tell me it's
    in working condition and they sold it to me.
[01:23] Natsuki
    And how many times were you deceived before?
[01:29] Natsuki
    You're gonna die an awful death
    if you don't take life seriously.
[01:31] Catherine
    Oh, just shut up and give it a try!
[01:33] Catherine
    Just one time! Just one!
[01:36] Catherine
    Here.
[01:39] Natsuki
    Well, this definitely looks
    better than the others.
[01:42] Catherine
    Right?!
[01:45] Natsuki
    Might as well...
[01:52] Natsuki
    It's not like I have anything else to do...
[01:59] Natsuki
    ...in a world like this.
[02:14] Radio
    The Amaterasu Project is expected to be
    a new large-scale energy supply source.
[02:14] Sign
    TO THE CRADLE IN THE OCEAN
[02:19] Radio
    Regarding the launching of the rocket which
    will be the first step to this plan,
[02:25] Radio
    there are citizens who strongly oppose the launch,
[02:27] Radio
    which will probably lead
    to even more debates.
[02:27] Catherine
    Is it actually gonna fly this time?
[02:29] Natsuki
    It will.
[02:31] Catherine
    I mean, if they have the time and
    money to pop off some giant bottle rocket,
[02:34] Catherine
    they can at least do
    something about our livelihoods.
[02:39] Natsuki
    Even if we're getting by right now,
    it's all going to crumble someday.
[02:42] Natsuki
    We have to create a future.
[02:44] Catherine
    But man, look at this hunk of junk.
[02:46] Catherine
    Is that thing actually
    gonna survive underwater?
[02:48] Natsuki
    You're the one who told me
    to go under, remember, old lady?
[02:50] Catherine
    The name's Catherine!
[02:52] Catherine
    Call me "old lady" again and I'll
    send you to the depths myself!
[02:55] Natsuki
    I mean, Catherine's not even
    your real name, is it?
[02:57] Natsuki
    What's the difference?
[02:59] Catherine
    Shut up! People have their reasons.
[03:02] Minamo
    Natsu-kun!
[03:09] Minamo
    Natsu-kun! Let's go to school.
[03:14] Catherine
    Looks like she's talking to you.
[03:15] Natsuki
    If you ignore her long
    enough, she'll give up.
[03:18] Catherine
    It seems you've been rejected.
[03:19] Catherine
    You need to know when to
    give up when it comes to love.
[03:22] Minamo
    Th-That's not what's going on here!
[03:27] Minamo
    And here I thought you finally disappeared.
[03:30] Catherine
    Don't make me sound like
    the plague or something...
[03:33] Catherine
    I am Natsuki Ikaruga's
    trusty partner, after all!
[03:38] Minamo
    Partner?!
[03:39] Natsuki
    Quit making stuff up.
[03:41] Natsuki
    You're just a con artist who
    showed up with some shady offers.
[03:44] Minamo
    They aren't shady!
[03:45] Minamo
    The fact that there's some treasure deep down
    in your granny's house is the absolute truth!
[03:50] Minamo
    Natsu-kun's grandmother?
[03:52] Minamo
    The something-or-other-ologist?
[03:54] Natsuki
    The marine geologist
    Professor Nonko Yachigusa.
[03:57] Natsuki
    The deal is to use this thing to snatch up
    the treasure in my grandma's house and split it.
[04:04] Minamo
    Th-That is shady...
[04:06] Catherine
    Oh, knock it off!
[04:07] Catherine
    Well, is it ready?
[04:09] Natsuki
    Yeah.
[04:10] Natsuki
    As long as that part you
    brought earlier works properly.
[04:13] Catherine
    Really?!
[04:15] Minamo
    W-Wait! You're going into
    the ocean with this thing?
[04:18] Natsuki
    Yeah.
[04:19] Minamo
    You really shouldn't! You should
    treasure your life more!
[04:23] Catherine
    Quit butting in.
[04:25] Catherine
    The two of us need some
    money no matter what.
[04:28] Catherine
    How else can we survive
    in a world like this?
[04:34] Minamo
    Are you really going to be okay?
[04:36] Minamo
    Are you sure she won't just
    throw you into the ocean
[04:39] Minamo
    right after she thanks you
    for finding the treasure?
[04:42] Natsuki
    She just might.
[04:43] Minamo
    She might?!
[04:44] Minamo
    Don't say things like that!
[04:47] Natsuki
    Then will you come with me, Minamo?
[04:50] Minamo
    Huh?
[04:51] Natsuki
    It's been years since this
    thing's gone into the ocean.
[04:55] Natsuki
    I'd like all the help I can get.
[04:58] Minamo
    You really don't play fair.
[05:01] Natsuki
    What do you mean?
[05:03] Minamo
    Never mind.
[05:06] Natsuki
    There was a sudden sea rise that
    happened across the globe.
[05:10] Natsuki
    Coastal towns close to the sea level were
    enveloped by the ocean.
[05:14] Natsuki
    The cause is still unknown.
[05:16] Natsuki
    The expansion of seawater
    due to global warming.
[05:19] Natsuki
    A large-scale shift in the seafloor
    due to a change in the Earth's crust.
[05:22] Natsuki
    There are a number of theories like
    these, but nothing's been confirmed.
[05:26] Natsuki
    After the rise, the sea level
    never went back down,
[05:29] Natsuki
    causing many cities and
    infrastructure to be lost.
[05:32] Natsuki
    And even now,
[05:33] Natsuki
    it's slowly enveloping more and more land.
[05:37] Minamo
    Uh, um...
[05:39] Natsuki
    After I get in and close the hatch,
    I need you to release those hooks.
[05:43] Minamo
    Hooks? Is it this lever?
[05:46] Natsuki
    Catherine, I need you to control the crane.
[05:54] Sign
    MAIN POWER
[05:54] Natsuki
    Now, then...
[06:01] Catherine
    It actually turned on!
[06:04] Minamo
    Will this thing really be okay?
[06:07] Catherine
    Hurry up and release the hooks!
    We don't have endless fuel, you know!
[06:11] Minamo
    Oh, jeez...
[06:14] Natsuki
    Venting the ballast tanks.
[06:17] Minamo
    Maybe you really shouldn't do this.
[06:20] Natsuki
    I'm only diving somewhere shallow,
    and I know exactly where I'm going.
[06:23] Natsuki
    I'll be fine.
[06:25] Natsuki
    Not to mention, I need to go at least once.
[06:28] Minamo
    Huh?
[06:29] Natsuki
    If no one goes down there, it's just
    going to be lost to the sea forever.
[06:34] Natsuki
    Even though it's the city we all lived in.
[06:41] Minamo
    Natsu-kun...
[06:49] Natsuki
    Is that it?
[06:56] Natsuki
    It's hard to believe that so
    much of it is still intact.
[07:06] Young Minamo
    Natsu-kun, where are you?
[07:09] Young Natsuki
    Minamo, I'm getting a head start!
[07:11] Young Natsuki
    See ya!
[07:13] Young Minamo
    Wait for me, Natsu-kun!
[07:19] Catherine
    Did you find it?
[07:21] Natsuki
    Yeah.
[07:28] Natsuki
    Here it is.
[07:44] Natsuki
    What's that thing?
[07:46] Catherine
    What? Did you find some gold down there?!
[07:48] Natsuki
    Of course not. It's not like
    there's some shipwreck down here.
[08:05] Natsuki
    A capsule? No, wait...
[08:11] Natsuki
    It's a girl.
[08:16] Natsuki
    A doll?
[08:19] Natsuki
    She must be a Humanoid.
[08:22] Natsuki
    I'm going to lift this up.
    Get me the crane hook.
[08:25] Catherine
    You got it.
[08:26] Natsuki
    She definitely doesn't
    look like a doll.
[08:29] Natsuki
    To think they managed to
    make her so intricately...
[08:33] Natsuki
    I've never seen anything like it.
[08:48] Minamo
    Natsu-kun! Natsu-kun, what's wrong?!
[08:56] Natsuki
    No... No...
[08:59] Natsuki
    No!
[09:01] Minamo
    Natsu-kun! Natsu-kun!
[09:03] Natsuki
    No!
[09:16] Natsuki
    A... t... ri?
[09:32] Natsuki
    The winch...
[09:33] Minamo
    Huh?
[09:35] Natsuki
    Just pull up the winch!
[09:43] Minamo
    Natsu-kun!
[09:52] Natsuki
    There she is!
[10:00] Minamo and Catherine
    Huh?!
[10:09] Natsuki
    A leg...
[10:12] Natsuki
    Oh, it's my prosthetic leg.
[10:16] Natsuki
    It's no use...
[10:19] Natsuki
    It's so beautiful though.
[10:21] Natsuki
    The light... is just so...
[10:26] Natsuki
    ...beautiful.
[11:00] Catherine
    A Humanoid...
[11:02] Minamo
    So she's a robot?
[11:04] Atri
    I do indeed belong to the group of
    precision instruments that you humans
[11:07] Atri
    have given that generic name to,
[11:10] Atri
    but I do believe that calling
    me that is imprecise.
[11:13] Minamo
    Wow... I've never seen a Humanoid
    that looks this human before.
[11:18] Atri
    But of course!
[11:19] Atri
    I'm high-performance, after all!
[11:23] Catherine
    Man, to think she had something like
    this hidden down there all this time...
[11:26] Catherine
    They stopped producing Humanoids that
    were human-like quite a while back.
[11:31] Catherine
    -She's probably worth a pretty penny!
    -Huh?! You're going to sell her?!
[11:34] Catherine
    Of course, we are!
    That's why we salvaged her!
[11:38] Minamo
    But you really shouldn't do that
    without permission, should you?
[11:41] Atri
    Precisely! You must not!
[11:43] Atri
    It would be illegal to sell me
    without Master's permission!
[11:46] Minamo
    Master?
[11:48] Atri
    Professor Nonko Yachigusa!
[11:55] Natsuki
    Your master...
[11:57] Natsuki
    ...passed away a month ago from an illness.
[12:01] Atri
    Huh? Nonko did?
[12:03] Atri
    I see...
[12:06] Minamo
    Um...
[12:08] Atri
    Aw, she died.
[12:10] Atri
    Well, that's rather unfortunate.
[12:12] Atri
    RIP.
[12:14] Minamo
    Sh-She's taking this very lightly...
[12:15] Natsuki
    Well, yeah.
[12:17] Natsuki
    Everything she says and does is
    just what she's programmed to do.
[12:21] Catherine
    So, yeah. Your new master is her
    grandson, meaning this kid here.
[12:26] Catherine
    You need to listen to his orders now.
[12:28] Atri
    Oh...
[12:30] Atri
    I look forward to working
    with you, This Kid.
[12:33] Atri
    Should I continue calling you This Kid?
[12:36] Atri
    I could also call you Papa,
    Big Brother, or even Big Bro!
[12:41] Natsuki
    My name is not "This Kid." It's Natsuki.
[12:46] Natsuki
    Natsuki Ikaruga.
[12:47] Atri
    Natsuki...?
[12:49] Natsuki
    What should I call you?
[12:51] Atri
    Oh, you mean my model number?
[12:53] Natsuki
    No, your name. Do you not have one?
[12:56] Atri
    Oh, I do...
[12:59] Atri
    It's Atri.
[13:01] Atri
    My name is Atri.
[13:03] Atri
    A-t-r-i. Atri!
[13:07] Natsuki
    Atri...
[13:09] Atri
    Yes! When a thing like a
    robot is given a proper name,
[13:12] Atri
    it's proof that it has been
    acknowledged as a living being!
[13:16] Atri
    It is one of the many esteemed labels
    my high-performance self has.
[13:19] Atri
    Oh! But I believe that Natsuki
    is also a fine name as well.
[13:23] Natsuki
    Why are you looking down on me?
[13:25] Atri
    Huh? But I'm looking up at you!
[13:29] Natsuki
    I guess you wouldn't get it.
[13:35] Atri
    Wait, did he just... mock me?
[13:43] Minamo
    Make sure you don't sell her before
    I get back from school, okay?
[13:48] Natsuki
    Yeah, I know.
[13:50] Minamo
    Absolutely do not! You hear me?!
[13:57] Catherine
    So what are we going to do?
[14:02] Natsuki
    I don't have the resources to
    keep a Humanoid around.
[14:05] Natsuki
    Not to mention, I need to do
    something about this leg.
[14:08] Catherine
    That's more like it.
[14:12] Natsuki
    Atri.
[14:12] Atri
    Yessir!
[14:14] Natsuki
    Let's go.
[14:15] Atri
    Are we going on a walk, Master?
[14:18] Natsuki
    You'll find out soon enough.
[14:26] Catherine
    She sure is slow. Are you
    sure she won't run away.
[14:30] Natsuki
    She's a Humanoid. There's no
    way she'd disobey her master.
[14:35] Natsuki
    Is this place unusual?
[14:36] Atri
    Why, yes. Everything here is all new to me.
[14:40] Natsuki
    Well, this place changed quite
    a bit in the past few years.
[14:44] Natsuki
    How long were you asleep?
[14:46] Atri
    Hm? Was I asleep for that long?
[14:49] Natsuki
    You don't even know?
[14:51] Atri
    I do not. It appears as though all
    of my memories have been lost.
[15:03] Sign
    SHOPPING DISTRICT
[15:03] Natsuki
    Follow me.
[15:04] Catherine
    Hey!
[15:05] Atri
    Hm?
[15:10] Natsuki
    Choose whichever ones you want.
[15:11] Catherine
    What? You're gonna buy some for her?
[15:13] Natsuki
    That'll keep her price from going down, right?
[15:17] Atri
    I see...
[15:18] Catherine
    What?
[15:19] Atri
    Oh, it's just this one is optimal in size,
    but this one is aesthetically optimal.
[15:26] Catherine
    This is gonna take forever.
[15:28] Catherine
    Just pick a pair out for her.
[15:36] Natsuki
    Well?
[15:37] Atri
    They fit perfectly!
[15:42] Natsuki
    You're that happy about shoes?
[15:44] Atri
    Yes!
[15:46] Atri
    Because you were kind enough...
[15:49] Atri
    ...to give me something, Master!
[15:57] Atri
    Is it strange that I'm so happy?
[16:00] Natsuki
    No. It's not strange.
[16:05] Catherine
    You can't even tell that she's not human.
[16:09] Natsuki
    Well, that's probably why
    they stopped making them.
[16:17] Atri
    Are you all right?
[16:21] Natsuki
    It did come off earlier...
[16:24] Natsuki
    Not to mention this prosthetic
    leg is an older model.
[16:28] Atri
    So it's not high-performance, then.
[16:31] Natsuki
    Well, that's one way to put it.
[16:50] Junker
    Hmm... I see...
[16:55] Junker
    She's a fourth-gen Yamasaki Factory model.
[16:58] Junker
    She's two generations newer than this one.
[17:01] Natsuki
    Two generations?
[17:03] Natsuki
    They became awfully human-like in that time.
[17:06] Junker
    Yeah, they were all the rage
    when they first came out.
[17:10] Junker
    But then they were all recalled.
[17:12] Catherine
    Recalled?! What's that
    gonna do to the price?!
[17:18] Catherine
    Out of the way! Let's see it!
[17:23] Catherine
    We get to split this amount
    between the two of us?!
[17:26] Catherine
    I-I won! I just won at the game of life!
[17:29] Natsuki
    There must've been some kind of problem
    since they were recalled, right?
[17:32] Natsuki
    Are you sure this price is okay?
[17:33] Junker
    Collectors love stuff like that though.
[17:36] Atri
    That must mean that I was given a
    price that you were satisfied with!
[17:40] Atri
    As expected of my high-performance self!
[17:43] Junker
    Well? Want me to find someone
    who'll take her immediately?
[17:45] Catherine
    But of course!
[17:47] Atri
    Excuse me.
[17:48] Catherine
    Huh?
[17:50] Atri
    Could you wait just a little
    while before you sell me?
[17:54] Atri
    My former master...
[17:56] Atri
    Rather, Nonko, gave me an order.
[18:01] Atri
    Before I went to sleep.
[18:03] Atri
    I would like for you to wait
    until I fulfill that order!
[18:06] Natsuki
    Grandma gave you an order?
[18:07] Catherine
    What is it?
[18:08] Atri
    That...
[18:16] Atri
    ...data has been lost.
[18:17] Catherine
    What?!
[18:18] Atri
    Huh?! What was it again?
[18:21] Atri
    Um... Uuum...
[18:24] Natsuki
    You actually forgot?
    Even though you're a robot?
[18:28] Atri
    In order to make sure that my
    thought patterns are human-like,
[18:30] Atri
    I also forget things just like humans!
[18:33] Atri
    Um... what was it again?
[18:36] Atri
    Do you remember, Master?
[18:38] Natsuki
    How the hell would I remember?
[18:40] Atri
    Oh, you're so useless!
[18:43] Atri
    What do I do?
[18:45] Natsuki
    Seriously...
[18:54] Atri
    I can't believe I've lost
    something so important,
[18:57] Atri
    especially since I'm so high-performance.
[18:59] Catherine
    Well, I think we know why she was recalled.
[19:03] Natsuki
    I'm surprised he gave us that price
[19:05] Natsuki
    on this piece of scrap.
[19:13] Atri
    Calling a robot a piece of scrap goes
    against the Robot Anti-Discrimination Statute!
[19:18] Atri
    Please retract that at once!
[19:20] Natsuki
    Where the heck were you even hiding that?!
[19:23] Natsuki
    More importantly, could
    you remember already?
[19:26] Catherine
    Oh, for crying out loud.
[19:27] Catherine
    I'll take her in for today.
[19:30] Natsuki
    Huh?
[19:31] Catherine
    Why are you surprised?
[19:32] Catherine
    She can be sold as long as we have
    her master's permission, right?
[19:35] Catherine
    I can't leave her with you because
    you might just up and run.
[19:38] Natsuki
    We're selling her?
[19:39] Catherine
    You mean you're not?
[19:43] Catherine
    What difference is it going to make if she
    remembers her dead master's orders or not?
[19:47] Catherine
    Not to mention at this rate, I highly doubt
    she'd be capable of even carrying it out.
[19:52] Catherine
    You want a new leg, don't you?
[19:56] Natsuki
    Atri.
[19:57] Atri
    Yessir!
[20:01] Natsuki
    Go with Catherine.
[20:04] Atri
    Yessir.
[20:14] Catherine
    Anyway, I'll contact you
    when I find a buyer.
[20:17] Natsuki
    Yeah.
[20:22] Catherine
    Let's go.
[20:23] Atri
    Yes, ma'am.
[20:27] Natsuki
    H-Hey...
[20:31] Natsuki
    Wait.
[20:36] Natsuki
    Wait!
[20:43] Catherine
    What?! It's malfunctioning?!
[20:45] Catherine
    I knew I shouldn't have gotten one so cheap!
[20:53] Atri
    Excuse me.
[20:54] Catherine
    Huh?!
[20:56] Catherine
    Oh, shit!
[20:58] Catherine
    Show me what you've got, you piece of scrap!
[21:05] Natsuki
    Hey, wait!
[21:08] Natsuki
    Please wait!
[21:11] Natsuki
    Wait...
[21:21] Atri
    Master...
[21:35] Minamo
    Natsu-kun.
[21:40] Minamo
    You skinned your elbow.
    I'll go get the first-aid kit...
[21:43] Natsuki
    Sorry, could you leave me alone for a while?
[21:49] Minamo
    Sure...
[22:04] Nonko
    I even sent you to the Academy and you
    had the nerve to come running back?
[22:09] Nonko
    How pitiful are you?
[22:17] Natsuki
    What was I supposed to do?
[22:22] Natsuki
    Even I...
[22:28] Young Natsuki
    Damn it! Damn it!
[22:31] Young Natsuki
    No... No...
[22:44] Natsuki
    Atri.
[22:47] Atri
    Natsuki.
[22:52] Atri
    I'll be your leg, Master!
