[00:08] H
    Chidori, this is goodbye, huh?
[00:12] Gi
    Yesterday, that was a close thing.
[00:15] H
    Kanno-san!
[00:17] GI
    For a minute, I thought you might win.
[00:21] H
    Were you cheering for me?
[00:24] Gi
    Of course not.
[00:25] Gi
    Yesterday, you just had a lucky day.
[00:28] Gi
    To begin with, you're no match for Takami.
[00:32] H
    Yeah.
[00:36] Gi
    What?
[00:37] Gi
    Doesn't it bother you?
[00:39] Gi
    You really wanted to be strong.
[00:42] H
    It bothers me, but I did what I could,
[00:45] H
    so I feel satisfied.
[00:46] H
    My sister really is amazing!
[00:49] Gi
    Hikari...
[00:52] H
    Chidori, thanks for everything.
[00:56] H
    Do your best with my sis.
[00:58] Gi
    Hey!
[01:02] H
    These gloves...
[01:04] Gi
    You wanted them, right?
[01:06] Gi
    A farewell gift.
SIGN    Episode 11
    "We Won't Know Until We Try"
[02:43] Gi
    Are you really going to Suomus, Hikari?
[02:47] H
    Yeah.
[02:48] Gi
    Don't break your Unit when you get there.
[02:51] H
    Yeah.
[02:52] H
    I'll be sure that they don't make me kneel.
[02:55] Gi
    I made you rice balls.
[02:57] Gi
    And something to drink.
[02:58] H
    Shimohara-san...
[03:00] H
    Georgette-san.
[03:01] H
    Thanks for everything!
[03:03] R
    Hikari-san...
[03:04] R
    Everything you did here didn't go to waste.
[03:08] H
    Sensei...
[03:09] R
    You were moving pretty well yesterday.
[03:13] H
    Thank you very much, Rossmann-sensei!
[03:18] K
    Hikari-chan...
[03:20] K
    It's best that you have this.
[03:24] H
    Th-That good luck charm!
[03:26] H
    I heard about it from Nipa-san.
[03:28] ---
    This is actually a weapon, isn't it?
[03:30] K
    You found out?
[03:32] K
    It'll feel more like a good luck charm
    if it has at least one bullet.
[03:37] H
    Thanks, Krupinski-san.
[03:44] H
    Everyone, stay safe!
[03:48] Gi
    Hikari!
[03:52] Gi
    Hikari!
[03:54] H
    Nipa-san...
[04:02] Gi
    Hey.
[04:03] Gi
    The strategy meeting is starting.
[04:05] Gi
    Why aren't you chasing after her?
[04:08] Gi
    Will chasing after her change anything?
[04:10] Gi
    She's one of us, right?
[04:12] Gi
    Wasn't she your partner?!
[04:16] Gi
    My partner is Takami.
[04:21] Gu
    Aren't you cold?
[04:22] Gi
    N-No, I'm just fine.
[04:25] Gu
    I'm honored to be able to carry
    a Witch of the 502nd.
[04:30] Gi
    But I'm not in the 502nd anymore.
[04:39] R
    Hikari left.
[04:40] T
    How was she doing?
[04:42] R
    If you were concerned, why didn't
    you see her off?
[04:49] T
    It's covered with scratches...
[04:51] R
    Those scratches prove that Hikari was here.
[04:54] T
    I can't believe she was able to fight
    on the front lines like this.
[04:59] T
    She worked really hard, didn't she?
[05:02] R
    Yeah, she really did.
[05:05] R
    But what I want is a strong Witch
    who can complete the mission.
[05:10] R
    That's all.
[05:12] T
    I shall fulfill that role. I promise!
[05:17] Gu
    As you know, Grigori is moving
    southwest at 5km per hour.
[05:22] Gu
    Its target is Petersburg and the 502nd base.
[05:28] Gu
    We're changing our normal strategy
    of responding to enemy attacks,
[05:31] Gu
    and launching our own major counterattack.
[05:34] Gu
    That is Operation Freyja.
[05:38] Gu
    The northern armies have succeeded
    in scouting inside of Grigori.
[05:42] Gu
    At the center of the cloud
    lies a massive main body.
[05:46] Gu
    That is where the Neuroi are coming from.
[05:49] Gi
    A Neuroi factory, huh?
[05:52] Gu
    Our ultimate goal is destruction
    of that main body.
[05:56] Gu
    And this is our trump card.
[06:00] Gu
    The ultra-large railway cannons
    Gustav and Dora.
[06:04] Gi
    Those?
[06:05] Gi
    They're huge.
[06:06] Gu
    Karlsland Engineering Labs has developed
[06:09] Gu
    an 800mm-caliber artillery piece,
    the largest in the world.
[06:14] Gi
    800mm?
[06:16] Gi
    I didn't know you could make
    something so big.
[06:18] Gu
    Gustav will fire first,
[06:23] Gu
    launching a newly developed HE round.
[06:27] Gu
    We'll use this to destroy the
    cloud that hides the nest.
[06:32] Gu
    Dora will then destroy the exposed main body.
[06:36] Gu
    Dora has been loaded with an
    anti-Neuroi magic AP round.
[06:40] Gi
    Magic AP round?
[06:42] Gu
    This magic AP round contains the magical power
    of several hundred ground Witches.
[06:48] Gu
    We'll pound it right into the
    enemy core and end this.
[06:53] Gu
    But to accurately strike Grigori, which is
    several hundred meters off the ground,
[06:58] Gu
    we must get within a minimum
    of several dozen kilometers.
[07:01] K
    That's inside the enemy attack area?
[07:06] Gu
    502nd Joint Fighter Wing,
[07:08] Gu
    your mission is to escort the railway
    cannons inside the firing area.
[07:15] Gu
    And then, Sub-lieutenant Karibuchi
    will ID the core's location!
[07:23] Gu
    You'll take the train from here.
[07:23] ---
    Suomus Station, Petersburg
[07:26] Gu
    I'll be on my way.
[07:27] H
    Yes, thank you very much!
[07:33] H
    Let's see...
[07:38] H
    Someone's supposed to come from Suomus.
[07:41] Gi
    Hey!
[07:45] H
    Eila-san! Sanya-san!
[07:47] H
    You came to meet me?
[07:56] R
    Listen up.
[07:58] R
    Don't think about leaving
    until Grigori is down.
[08:01] R
    502nd Joint Fighter Wing, head out!
[08:04] All
    Roger!
[08:15] T
    Hikari...
[08:23] Gi
    Nipa-san said she wanted us to meet you.
[08:27] H
    Nipa-san said that?
[08:29] Gi
    She was so worried about you!
[08:35] Gi
    Sanya?
[08:37] Gi
    The sky...
[08:44] Gi
    The 502nd took off?
[08:47] H
    Yes!
[08:48] H
    That's the flight leader!
[08:49] H
    That's Sasha-san!
[08:51] H
    And Rossmann-sensei,
[08:53] H
    Shimohara-san, and Georgette-san!
[08:55] E
    I'm amazed you can see them...
[08:57] H
    To the left is Krupinski-san,
[08:59] H
    Nipa-san, and Kanno-san!
[09:01] H
    And...
[09:03] E
    Your sister?
[09:05] H
    Yes.
[09:06] H
    You can do it, Sis!
[09:09] Gi
    Don't get so down.
[09:11] Gi
    Look!
[09:14] Gi
    When you're feeling down,
[09:15] Gi
    you can have yummy sweets
    to cheer you right up!
[09:21] H
    Chocolate!
[09:23] H
    Thanks!
[09:24] E
    It isn't chocolate.
[09:26] E
    It's salmiakki.
[09:27] E
    S-So much!
[09:30] H
    It's good...
[09:36] Gi
    H-Hey, Hikari!
[09:38] Gi
    Hikari-san!
[09:44] Gi
    Takami.
[09:48] Gi
    You beat Hikari to become my partner.
[09:51] Gi
    We have to win.
[09:54] Gi
    We have to!
[09:56] T
    Right!
[09:57] T
    Of course, Kanno-san!
[10:09] R
    Gustav and Dora sighted.
[10:12] R
    They're what we're protecting?
[10:15] R
    Ten o'clock.
[10:16] R
    Grigori sighted.
[10:20] Gi
    It's here?
[10:22] Gi
    That's Grigori?
[10:24] Gi
    I'll send you crashing
    to the bottom of the sky!
SIGN    Ultra-large Railway Cannon
    
    Giant artillery pieces that the Engineering Labs
     of the Empire of Karlsland created.
    
    They are giant weapons measuring 47 meters long,
    weighing 1,300 tons, with a 800mm-caliber barrel
    and run along a rail.
    
    Currently, two of these weapons, Dora and Gustav,
    are at Murmansk Base and are a part of Operation Freyja.
[10:55] Gi
    That's a huge force...
[10:56] Gi
    Of course.
[10:58] Gi
    Everything depends on this mission!

[11:07] Gu
    Tell them to launch planes.
[11:10] Gu
    Roger.
[11:11] Gu
    We will now begin Operation Freyja!
[11:43] R
    It's started.
[11:44] Gi
    Right.
[11:45] Gi
    Gustav and Dora will enter enemy
    combat range in thirty seconds!
[11:54] H
    That surprised me...
[11:55] Gi
    Are you okay?
[11:56] Gi
    Good stuff, right?
[11:58] Gi
    Looks like it's started.
[12:00] Gi
    You can't see it from here.
[12:04] Gi
    I wish we could go, too...
[12:06] Gi
    The Suomus force is backup, isn't it?
[12:09] H
    Sis...
[12:12] Gi
    Ta-dah!
[12:13] H
    A radio!
[12:15] Gi
    Just wait...
[12:19] Gu
    Air Wing 8 has engaged ten small-sized
    Neuroi in Zone B05!
[12:27] S
    We're inside enemy attack range.
[12:29] R
    They're coming!
[12:30] R
    No matter what, protect the railway cannons
    until they reach the firing area!
[12:34] All
    Roger!
[12:37] T
    Watch me, Hikari!
[12:39] T
    I'll win and return safely!
[12:45] Gi
    How are there so many beams?
[12:47] R
    It just means the enemy's serious.
[12:51] R
    Your quota is one every five seconds!
[12:54] K
    No need to tell me!
[13:17] Gi
    Those two are amazing!
[13:18] Gi
    They're in perfect harmony!
[13:32] Gu
    Air Wing 1 has been wiped out.
[13:34] Gu
    AA Battalion 11 has been wiped out.
[13:37] Gu
    Regimental losses have reached 30%!
[13:39] Gu
    The amount of Neuroi appearing
    every minute has been halved.
[13:43] Gu
    Keep attacking.
[13:45] Gu
    Give 'em all we've got.
[13:46] Gu
    No holding back!
[13:48] Gu
    Gustav and Dora will reach
    firing range in one minute.
[13:53] Gu
    Prepare to fire super HE round!
[14:02] Gi
    Stay away from us!
[14:04] T
    Don't get in our way!
[14:10] H
    You can do it, Sis!
[14:12] Gu
    Shut down engines.
[14:13] Gu
    Adjust sights.
[14:15] Gu
    Load round.
[14:16] Gu
    All safeties disabled.
[14:18] Gu
    Deploying magic inside cylinder
    in three, two, one...
[14:23] Gu
    Ready to fire.
[14:25] Gu
    Gustav has reached target area.
[14:28] Gu
    Fire!
[14:34] Gi
    The impact's incredible.
[14:53] Gu
    The super HE device activated successfully.
[14:56] Gu
    The clouds around Grigori have dissipated.
[14:59] Gu
    It worked!
[15:01] Gu
    So far.
[15:04] H
    Huh?
[15:05] Gi
    It was just getting good...
[15:08] S
    There's so much jamming.
[15:13] T
    That's the enemy's main body?
[15:15] K
    It's huge...
[15:23] R
    Normal weapons can't scratch it, huh?
[15:26] Gu
    Sub-lieutenant Karibuchi, ID the core.
[15:29] Gi
    Let's go, Takami!
[15:30] T
    Roger!
[15:32] R
    We'll escort Takami until she's close
    enough to locate the core!
[15:35] All
    Roger.
[15:57] Gi
    Did you see it, Takami?
[15:58] T
    Yes... Initial targeting lock!
[16:01] T
    Adjusting targets.
[16:04] T
    Final adjustment.
[16:07] T
    Targeting lock complete!
[16:09] T
    Grid H2541! T0429!
[16:13] Gu
    Grigori core identified!
[16:15] Gu
    Dora, prepare to fire!
[16:24] Gu
    Dora, spells deployed.
[16:27] Gu
    Ten seconds to fire.
[16:29] Gu
    Nine, eight...
[16:35] Gi
    Damn it! Damn it!
[16:41] Gu
    Dora is damaged!
[16:43] Gu
    The barrel's melted, and we can't fire!
[16:45] Gu
    What? We can't fire?
[16:51] Gu
    Then use Gustav!
[16:52] Gu
    Prepare the spare round!
[16:54] Gu
    Roger.
[17:00] Gu
    Grigori has initiated movement
    toward Petersburg!
[17:04] Gu
    What?
[17:05] Gu
    How long until we can fire?
[17:07] Gu
    We need twenty minutes to
    finish deploying the spells.
[17:10] Gu
    That's too long!
[17:10] Gu
    If it leaves firing range, we're finished!
[17:14] Gi
    What's going on?
[17:16] H
    Sis...
[17:19] R
    The attacks have stopped.
[17:21] K
    So it isn't interested in us now, huh?
[17:23] Gi
    If we wait twenty minutes,
    it'll move out of firing range...
[17:27] Gi
    Our weapons can't touch it!
[17:29] Gi
    What do we do?!
[17:32] Gi
    Takami?
[17:41] R
    That's...
[17:42] R
    The magic AP round?
[17:44] R
    She can't mean to...
[17:51] R
    She's going to carry it!
[17:53] R
    And slam it straight into the enemy?
[17:55] S
    That thing weighs close to a ton...
[17:59] Gi
    I-It's impossible!
[18:00] T
    This is what Hikari would do...
[18:03] T
    So I can't give up!
[18:06] T
    Ever!
[18:07] Gi
    Dummy...
[18:10] Gi
    You can't do it alone.
[18:12] Gi
    That's right.
[18:13] T
    Kanno-san! Nipa-san!
[18:16] T
    Georgette-san!
[18:20] T
    Everyone!
[18:21] K
    I'm better on offense than defense.
[18:24] S
    This is more likely to succeed.
[18:26] S
    You're just like your little sister.
[18:28] Gi
    They're both dummies, huh?
[18:33] R
    I don't mind idiots...
[18:36] Gu
    The 502nd plans to directly strike
    the enemy with the AP round.
[18:40] Gu
    It will take more time to fire Gustav!
[18:43] Gu
    They're our only hope now!
[18:46] Gu
    Ready...
[18:54] Gu
    It came up! Yes!
[18:56] Gu
    Let's go!
[19:01] K
    Never thought I'd go into battle
    hauling something like this...
[19:05] Gi
    They haven't seen us yet!
[19:08] Gi
    They think this'll be easy.
[19:10] Gi
    Let's show them they're wrong!
[19:12] S
    We're 600 meters above the enemy.
[19:14] S
    We've arrived at the location.
[19:16] T
    Core location remains the same!
[19:17] T
    Target lock!
[19:19] R
    Drop!
[19:24] T
    Let go!
[19:29] Gi
    What are you doing, Takami?
[19:31] T
    I'll make sure it hits!
[19:35] R
    Did they find us?
[19:40] Gi
    Let's go, Takami!
[19:41] T
    Kanno-san!
[19:42] T
    Right.
[19:45] T
    Go!
[19:59] Gi
    We did it, Takami!
[20:00] T
    Yes!
[20:06] Gu
    Grigori is still functional!
[20:07] Gu
    It's regenerating!
[20:09] Gu
    Grigori's regenerating?
[20:10] Gu
    Why?
[20:12] Gu
    Didn't we destroy the core?
[20:16] T
    That's...
[20:17] T
    I c-can see a core inside the core!
[20:19] R
    What?
[20:20] R
    It has a true core inside its core, too?
[20:24] Gu
    Unless we strike the true core
    directly, we can't defeat it?
[20:27] Gu
    Gustav is ready to fire!
[20:29] Gu
    This is our last attack.
[20:31] Gu
    We won't get another!
[20:32] Gu
    Sub-lieutenant Karibuchi,
    can you see the true core?
[20:36] T
    I can! Grid H66—
[20:40] R
    What's wrong, Takami?
[20:45] T
    I-It disappeared!
[20:47] T
    I can't detect it!
[20:48] T
    I can't see the true core!
[20:50] R
    What?
[20:51] T
    The core is blocking my Absolute Eye!
[20:58] Gu
    What do you mean, Sub-lieutenant?
[21:00] Gi
    There it is!
[21:00] Gu
    You can't locate the true core?
[21:03] Gi
    The true core?
[21:05] Gi
    What's that? What's going on?
[21:07] H
    Sis is going to use that...
[21:11] Gi
    Use what?
[21:16] Gi
    Hey, Hikari!
[21:18] H
    I have to stop her!
[21:23] H
    Where's my Unit?
[21:25] Gi
    I told you, the cargo train is different...
[21:28] H
    I'm going!
[21:30] Gi
    Going how?
[21:33] Gi
    And without a Unit, even if you go—
[21:35] Gi
    We won't know until we try!
SIGN    To Be Continued
[23:26] Gi
    Take flight. And fly to where you go.
[23:28] Gi
    Believe and jump, as high as you can!
[23:31] Gi
    All the way to the sky, from your
    promise on that day.
