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!
