[00:03] Lewis
As a kid, I wanted to be a big musclebound
man in a skintight red or blue suit.
[00:11] Lewis
But I always told myself you only ever
saw those guys in comics and movies.
[00:17] Pilot
One minute.
[00:18] Lewis
Even so, I always wanted to be a hero.
[00:25] Lewis
A jet pilot?
[00:28] Lewis
A tank driver?
[00:30] Lewis
Or a special forces operator?
[00:34] Lewis
Nah. None of those.
[00:35] Pilot
Ten seconds.
[00:37] Ryoma
Listen up, guys.
[00:39] Ryoma
The outcome of this war depends on
how fast you do your jobs after landing.
[00:46] Lewis
Yes, this is what I wanted to be.
[00:51] Ryoma
See you on the beach.
[00:53] Lewis
A Titanostrider pilot.
[00:57] Pilot
Release.
[01:21] Satake
This is Daidara-1.
[01:23] Satake
Daidara, Oni-O, and Katannaaba companies,
advance to the breakwater.
[01:28] Hibiki
Daidara-6, roger.
[01:31] Isami
Daidara-5, roger.
[01:34] Honoka
Daidara-5, Sledgehammer,
Singer-11, evasive maneuvers.
[01:47] Hibiki
He never fails to impress.
[01:50] Honoka
Daidara-5, be on alert for another barrage.
[01:53] Isami
Roger.
[01:54] Control
Ground unit Bravo is
requesting close air support.
[01:55] Karen
So he's the famous guy from the Japan SDF?
[01:57] Honoka
Yup. His reaction times are incredible.
[01:58] Control
Who's in the air and nearby?
[01:59] Control
Hog.
[02:00] Control
Hog, got it.
[02:00] Honoka
It feels like I'm running ops
for a jet fighter.
[02:01] Control
Hog flight, you have a new target.
[02:03] Control
Bearing zero-niner-zero.
[02:05] Control
Range: five miles.
[02:05] Karen
If yours is a jet pilot,
mine's a main battle tank.
[02:07] Control
TS Group. Cleared hot.
[02:10] Karen
Titan-2, Mad-11.
[02:21] Lewis
Thanks for the heads-up, Sledgehammer.
[02:24] Karen
See?
[02:24] Control
Good shot, Hog Flight.
[02:25] Karen
You're welcome, cowboy.
[02:33] Karen
Titan-3, Mad-11.
[02:38] Lewis
Hiro!
[02:46] Lewis
Damn it!
[02:50] Lewis
Wow!
[02:51] Lewis
He's moving so fast!
[02:53] Lewis
Is he going into that mess alone?
[02:56] Satake
Daidara-5, you were only told
to advance to the breakwater.
[02:59] Isami
Nobody ordered me not to go past it.
[03:02] Satake
Be sure to put that in
your disciplinary report.
[03:05] Honoka
Daidara-5, Titan-2 is following you
at a distance of 100 meters.
[03:16] Ryoma
Titan-2! Smith, get your ass back here!
[03:19] Smith
Yes, sir.
[03:20] Ryoma
Don't just "yes, sir" me.
You're not listening, dipshit!
[03:22] Lewis
He and I can end this
right here, Capt. Arakai.
[03:26] Ryoma
You're insane.
You'll be totally surrounded.
[03:30] Lewis
The JSDF went on ahead.
[03:32] Lewis
We can't just stay behind and—
[03:34] AI
Warning! Warning! Warning!
[03:34] Karen
Titan-2, Singer-11.
[03:39] Lewis
Damn it!
[03:40] Karen
Titan-2, down.
[03:42] Hibiki
Oh, dear. Not a good showing
from the US Armed Forces.
[03:59] Plumman
All units! All units, cease fire!
[04:02] Plumman
The exercise is over! The exercise is over!
[04:05] Plumman
Engagement time: 10 minutes, 35 seconds.
[04:12] Plumman
Blue team wins.
[04:14] Plumman
I repeat! All units, cease fire!
[04:18] Lewis
Daidara-5, this is Titan-2.
[04:21] Lewis
The name's Lt. Lewis Smith.
[04:24] Isami
JGSDF, Special Mechanized Infantry Group,
Second Lieutenant Isami Ao.
[04:29] Lewis
Your Type-24s are supposed
to be less capable than our M2s.
[04:34] Lewis
How did you modify yours?
[04:37] Isami
I've got a good mechanic, that's all.
[04:39] Isami
And anyway, you were declared KIA.
[04:43] Isami
The dead don't talk.
[04:46] Ryoma
He's got you there, Smith.
[05:22] Miyu
Um...
[05:23] Lewis
Don't mind me. Continue.
[05:25] Miyu
No, you're really bothering me.
[05:28] Lewis
He said his TS was good
'cause he had a good mechanic.
[05:33] Miyu
"He"? Oh, Lt. Ao?
[05:37] Miyu
He just made that up.
[05:39] Miyu
I didn't do anything unusual.
[05:42] Lewis
But this obsolete rust bucket
shouldn't be able to move like that.
[05:46] Lewis
No matter how good the pilot is, there's
a limit to what you can do with this thing.
[05:50] Lewis
Unless the mechanic's
given it a special overhaul—
[05:53] Miyu
Whaddaya mean "rust bucket"?
[05:55] Miyu
The second generation really
improved spec-wise, you know!
[05:58] Miyu
It uses power-by-wire,
so we could take out all the plumbing
[06:01] Miyu
and use the extra weight for armor!
[06:03] Lewis
Um, well...
[06:05] Miyu
There's more! The newest plasma
wrists that got added allow for—
[06:08] Chief
Hey, Miyu! I don't have
your maintenance report yet!
[06:11] Miyu
Oh, crap!
[06:14] Miyu
Just know that I didn't make any
special modifications to it, okay?
[06:19] Miyu
If you use it right, it's more than
capable of giving you whatever you need.
[06:23] Miyu
Goodbye.
[06:24] Miyu
Sorry, chief! I'm coming!
[06:31] Lewis
"If you use it right," huh?
[06:38] Hibiki
I see. Captain Satake's
being pretty harsh, huh?
[06:42] Hibiki
But we were only able to win
because you charged in alone, right?
[06:47] Hibiki
So why's he...
[06:49] Isami
No, Hibiki. There was another TS with me.
[06:51] Hibiki
Oh, you're right. There was.
[06:54] Smith
You sure you didn't drink too much, Ryoma?
[06:54] Isami
An M2 was closing in fast behind me.
[06:55] Ryoma
Nah, if anything, I didn't drink enough.
[06:57] Isami
The autonomous unit's cannon got him,
but it could just as easily have been me.
[07:02] Lewis
Hey, you two.
[07:03] Sign
Tricolor
[07:04] Sign
Tricolor
[07:04] Lewis
Enjoying your night in Waikiki?
[07:07] Lewis
Gimme a Kona beer.
[07:09] Isami
I guess.
[07:17] Lewis
That's great.
[07:19] Lewis
Let me join you.
[07:21] Lewis
You get a pay cut for violating orders?
[07:24] Isami
For three months.
[07:26] Lewis
Okay!
[07:27] Lewis
Nice work, bro!
[07:29] Lewis
I'm stuck on toilet duty for three months.
[07:38] Lewis
I think you made the right call.
[07:42] Lewis
If you'd waited for your unit,
[07:44] Lewis
you would've given the enemy time
to regroup and come up with a plan.
[07:47] Lewis
It would've been a bigger
body count in the end.
[07:50] Lewis
In a real war, you'd be a hero.
[07:53] Lewis
But you need a lot of bravery and
skill to charge into battle alone.
[07:59] Lewis
I'm honestly impressed.
[08:01] Isami
Thanks.
[08:04] Lewis
And so, Isami Ao, I issue you a challenge.
[08:08] Lewis
Tomorrow's exercise is mainly with TSes.
[08:10] Lewis
It's one of the rare times
America and Japan are on different sides.
[08:15] Isami
And you want a one-on-one?
[08:17] Lewis
That's right!
[08:18] Lewis
It might be tough if it turns into
a big, complicated fight, though.
[08:21] Lewis
Or do you not have the courage?
[08:27] Isami
Fine. Assuming you don't die
before I reach you, I'm in.
[08:34] Lewis
Listen to you.
[08:36] Lewis
All right, see you on the training grounds,
Second Lieutenant Isami Ao.
[08:43] Hibiki
He's got you locked on.
[08:45] Isami
What's his name?
[08:48] Hibiki
You two introduced yourselves
to each other, right?
[09:06] King
Attention, all participants in ADRIMPAC.
[09:09] King
This is joint exercise commander...
[09:11] King
Hal King speaking.
[09:13] King
The main participants in today's exercise
are the Titanostrider ground units.
[09:17] King
However, those of you in naval and air units
are also expected to give it your all.
[09:22] King
You will need to work together
even more closely than usual.
[09:26] King
I want to see a solid combined arms
effort from the ground, air,
[09:29] King
and naval forces of every
country involved. That is all.
[09:45] News
The ADRIMPAC military exercises,
which began in Hawaii yesterday,
[09:50] News
involve large numbers of TSes...
[09:51] News
...and are believed to be an attempt to
better integrate TSes into each nation's...
[09:56] News
...combat doctrine. The result of these
exercises will be a massive leap forward
[09:57] Commanders
I only ever thought I'd see something
like this in a cartoon or a movie.
[10:00] News
in technology and military strength.
[10:02] Commanders
I heard there's so many TS volunteers lately,
they can't find enough jet pilots.
[10:08] Commanders
Who knows what drives those muscleheads?
You and me are much better off
[10:11] Commanders
sitting in an air-conditioned room,
staring at monitors.
[10:14] Radar
Signal detected in Sector 1!
[10:16] Radar
Unidentified object incoming
from directly overhead!
[10:19] Radar
Check with NASA and the Space Force!
[10:22] Radar
No match! It's not something
launched from the surface.
[10:25] Radar
The unidentified object
is over 10 kilometers long!
[10:29] Radar
New signals detected!
[10:30] Radar
Two, three...
[10:32] Radar
There's more and more of them!
[10:33] Radar
They've separated from the larger object and
are changing course to land on the surface!
[10:37] Radar
Five minutes until they touch down!
[10:39] Radar
Why didn't we detect them sooner?
[11:06] Hiro
A mechanical problem?
[11:09] Hibiki
Isami! Look!
[11:13] Comms
Admiral! Emergency message from
Indo-Pacific Command in Oahu!
[11:17] King
What?
[11:18] Men
Hey, look.
[11:20] Men
What is that?
[11:37] Captain
Get us upright!
[11:54] King
All ships' crews to battle stations!
[11:56] King
Launch your planes immediately!
[11:58] Comms
Yes, admiral!
[12:00] Captain
What's Command saying?
[12:01] Comms
We got word they were
attacked, then nothing.
[12:03] Comms
Tell Hickam to get every
interceptor into the air,
[12:06] Comms
while they can still use their runways.
[12:08] King
A force of this size with
no known nationality...
[12:11] King
Where could it have come from?
[12:19] Pilot
Our guns aren't working! What's going on?
[12:21] Pilot
I'm requesting TS support!
[12:23] Pilot
I repeat! I'm requesting...
[12:34] Captain
Hickam control tower!
Come in, Hickam control tower!
[12:37] Captain
Damn! We lost the tower! What do we do?
[12:38] Control
Our fighters in the air
are asking for air control!
[12:41] Karen
We have multiple surface targets at
vector 2-3-0, 15 miles west from Bullseye.
[12:41] Control
We've lost our AWACS!
They'll have to figure it out on their own!
[12:45] Karen
They're moving at 30 miles per hour.
[12:45] Control
With so many planes in the sky,
we can't launch any anti-surface attacks!
[12:48] Honoka
Daidara company, come in!
I repeat! Come in!
[12:51] Honoka
Come in!
[12:51] Newscaster
We're receiving reports of mass casualties
in Washington, D.C., New York,
[12:55] Newscaster
and Los Angeles, California.
[12:58] Newscaster
The president has declared
a state of emergency.
[13:01] Newscaster
It is still not clear where
this attack is coming from.
[13:05] Satake
OP, this is Daidara-1. Do you read me?
[13:09] Satake
OP, this is Daidara-1. Do you read me?
[13:11] Wireless
We can't hold this position!
[13:12] Wireless
Retreat! Retreat!
[13:13] Wireless
What the hell is that?
[13:14] Hibiki
What are they all fighting?
[13:17] Ryoma
Daidara-1, this is Titan-1.
[13:20] Ryoma
The base is clearly under attack.
We all need to head there and join the fight.
[13:26] Satake
Titan-1, this is Daidara-1. Copy.
[13:28] Satake
All units, we will now advance
towards Wheeler Airfield.
[13:31] All
Roger!
[13:32] Hibiki
No way. Is this a real battle?
[13:47] Lewis
Daidara company, Titan-2,
Titan company will take the lead.
[13:51] Satake
Understood. You have our gratitude.
[13:53] Wireless
The enemy has shields.
Our attacks do nothing!
[13:55] Wireless
Neither HE nor AP rounds work!
[13:55] Wireless
Watch out for those weird lasers!
They rip right through your composite armor!
[13:57] Wireless
We can't hold position!
[13:59] Wireless
Retreat! Retreat!
[14:00] Ryoma
All units, Master Arm, on.
[14:03] Lewis
Roger. Master Arm, on.
[14:08] Satake
All Daidara units, safeties off.
[14:10] All
Roger!
[14:12] Isami
Roger.
[14:13] Isami
Safety off.
[14:16] Isami
Real bullets...
[14:36] Soldier
Medic!
[14:37] Nina
Give him morphine.
We've already infused two bags of saline.
[14:41] Soldier
Hey, doc.
[14:43] Nina
Hey, you'll be fine. I'm just...
[14:45] Soldier
Listen, doc. Am I gonna survive?
[14:49] Soldier
Mike died, and...
[14:53] Nina
Yeah, you'll be fine. Just hang in there.
[15:14] Joshua
Lt. Nina!
[15:21] Lewis
Okay!
[15:22] Lewis
We can hurt 'em up close.
[15:24] Lewis
But what are these things?
[15:26] Ryoma
All units! Weapons free!
[15:28] Lewis
Roger! Going hot!
[15:30] Hiro
Roger! Going hot!
[15:31] Ryoma
Focus your fire on one spot! See if you
can push through their damned shields!
[15:42] Satake
Where are the mechanics?
[15:44] Hibiki
I'm told they've all evacuated!
[15:47] Plumman
Lt. Colonel Satake!
[15:49] Satake
Sergeant Major Plumman.
Who's in charge here?
[15:52] Plumman
The TS Commanders
from every nation are KIA.
[15:57] Plumman
You're the highest-ranking officer here, sir!
[16:00] Satake
Sergeant Major, take the casualties
that can move and get out of here.
[16:04] Plumman
Sir!
[16:06] Hibiki
The captain knows him?
[16:08] Satake
All Daidara units, we will support
the evacuation of the wounded.
[16:11] Satake
You may fire at will.
[16:13] Hibiki
Daidara-1, this is 6!
[16:15] Hibiki
What's our target?
[16:16] Satake
Anything that tries to attack us.
[16:21] Isami
We have to fight them?
[16:22] Satake
I don't want any more casualties!
[16:24] Satake
Provide support while we link up with
Titan company, then we retreat, too.
[16:28] All
Roger!
[16:29] Satake
Do you copy, 5?
[16:31] Satake
Daidara-5!
[16:33] Isami
This is 5. Copy.
[16:37] Voice
Launching missiles.
[16:44] Satake
You don't need to try to defeat them!
Just don't give them time to fire!
[16:48] All
Roger!
[16:49] Isami
Roger.
[16:52] Satake
We can't hold them back.
[16:56] Lewis
Huh. So he can play well with a group.
[17:00] Ryoma
Smith, you know what to do, right?
[17:02] Lewis
Yeah.
[17:02] Lewis
We'll protect the wounded
and get out of here.
[17:05] Ryoma
That's right.
[17:06] Ryoma
We'll save as many as we can—
[17:07] Voice
Warning! Warning!
[17:09] Lewis
Ryoma!
[17:33] Lewis
What is that thing? It's huge.
[17:37] Satake
All units retreat.
[17:40] Satake
Get as far from the base as you can.
[17:44] Hibiki
Isami, just forget me.
[17:46] Hibiki
They're going to fire again.
Just get out of here.
[17:50] Satake
You are ordered to retreat, Lt. Ao!
[17:52] Isami
Lt. Rio is trapped!
[17:55] Hibiki
Just go! Isami, go!
[17:57] Hibiki
You need to hurry.
[18:00] Hibiki
Isami!
[18:01] Hibiki
Get out of here!
[18:03] Hibiki
Isami!
[18:06] Satake
That's an order.
[18:07] Satake
It's the last order I'll ever give,
so follow it, damn it!
[18:10] Hibiki
Run, Isami!
[18:36] Bravern
The wait's over, Isami.
[18:40] Bravern
I came to save you.
[18:45] Bravern
Now, climb inside me.
[18:52] Bravern
Who else could I be talking to?
[18:54] Bravern
There's no reason to hesitate.
[19:01] Bravern
Climb inside...
[19:03] Bravern
Climb inside me right now!
[19:16] Lewis
What?
[19:18] Lewis
Lt. Ao?
[19:28] Bravern
No!
[19:29] Bravern
It's too soon for you to use that.
[19:42] Bravern
Now, let's go!
[19:53] Bravern
Jump!
[20:15] Isami
What's my equipment? Don't I have
anything that can intercept them?!
[20:19] Bravern
Burn Blade!
[20:25] Bravern
Right!
[20:28] Bravern
Zu-ba-ba Burn!
[20:30] Bravern
Zu-ba-ba-ba-ba Burn!
[20:33] Isami
What the hell is that song that's playing?!
[20:42] Bravern
Burn Blade! Blaze up!
[20:49] Bravern
Now, shout it with me!
The name of our special attack!
[20:53] Isami
Wait, special—
[20:56] Brave
Courage Single Blade-Style Special Attack!
[20:59] Isami
Courage Single Blade-Style...
[21:01] Bravern
Brave Slash!
[21:05] Bravern
Bravern!
[21:30] Lewis
Like I said, I always wanted to be a hero.
[21:37] Lewis
Not a jet pilot, or a helicopter
pilot, or a tank driver,
[21:41] Lewis
or even a Titanostrider pilot.
[21:45] Lewis
A real hero.
[21:49] Lewis
An honest-to-goodness hero.
[21:53] Lewis
Like him.
[21:56] Bravern
Lookin' forward to working with you, Isami.
[22:01] Isami
How do you know my name?
[22:05] Bravern
Oh, right. I haven't told you my name yet.
[22:10] Isami
No, I didn't mean that.
Why do you know my name—
[22:13] Bravern
My name is...
[22:17] Bravern
Bravern!
