[00:02] R
    Drop!
[00:04] T
    Let go!
[00:15] Gu
    Grigori is still functional! It's regenerating!
[00:18] Gu
    Sub-lieutenant Karibuchi,
    can you see the true core?
[00:21] T
    I can't detect it!
[00:22] T
    I can't see the true core!
[00:24] R
    What?
[00:25] T
    The core is blocking my Absolute Eye!
[00:30] H
    I have to stop my sister!
SIGN    Episode 12 
    "Shining with Light..."
[02:35] Gu
    Defensive line 6 has been breached.
[02:37] Gu
    The enemy has changed course,
    heading for Gustav!
[02:41] Gu
    It's realized what we're after?
[02:45] Gu
    Sub-lieutenant Karibuchi!
[02:46] Gu
    What do you mean, you can't
    see the true core?
[02:48] T
    The outer core is acting as a
    shield, blocking my Eye.
[02:53] Gu
    What?
[02:54] Gi
    Can't we use the old position?
[02:57] T
    The true core is moving...
[02:59] T
    It isn't where it was.
[03:01] Gi
    Then, we don't know how to attack it?
[03:06] T
    I'll...
[03:07] T
    I'll have to use that technique.
[03:10] H
    My sister will try to use the Absolute Eye!
[03:13] R
    It's a powerful technique, which lets 
    you see multiple Neuroi cores,
[03:18] R
    or special-type cores, in an instant.
[03:20] R
    But it heavily stresses mind and body,
[03:23] R
    and it badly weakens your shields.
[03:27] R
    So using it without support is suicide.
[03:31] H
    I have to stop her!
[03:41] H
    Sis!
[03:45] Gu
    There's no time, Marshal Manstein.
[03:53] Gu
    What is that?
[04:00] Gu
    A Witch is running along the water!
[04:06] S
    Sub-lieutenant Karibuchi is
    approaching the Neuroi.
[04:09] R
    Wait, Takami!
[04:10] Gi
    No! Takami!
[04:14] Gi
    Takami!
[04:15] R
    Don't do anything hasty, Takami!
[04:17] T
    There's no other way, Flight Leader!
[04:20] R
    You idiot!
[04:25] T
    Activating Absolute Eye!
[04:31] H
    Red light...
[04:33] H
    No! Sis!
[04:41] T
    Locating core.
[04:42] T
    The true core...
[04:44] T
    Where is it?
[04:51] T
    My shield isn't going to last!
[05:02] T
    Everyone...
[05:05] Gi
    I knew you'd do that.
[05:07] Gi
    Rossmann-sensei briefed us
    on the Absolute Eye.
[05:12] S
    She said you'd use it, for sure.
[05:14] R
    After all, you're Hikari-san's big sister.
[05:17] Gi
    You can't just go off alone. It isn't fair.
[05:19] Gi
    Let's all do this together.
[05:21] R
    I told you not to do anything hasty.
[05:24] T
    Everyone...
[05:26] T
    Thank you.
[05:29] T
    Absolute Eye!
[05:39] T
    Final adjustments.
[05:43] T
    Targeting lock complete!
[05:45] T
    True core... Grid H58954!
[05:54] R
    No!
[05:55] T
    T87449...
[05:59] Gu
    T87449. Roger.
[06:02] Gi
    Takami!
[06:06] Gi
    Hikari...
[06:18] Gi
    It's so warm.
[06:23] Gi
    Takami!
[06:36] Gu
    Grid coordinates input to Gustav.
[06:39] Gu
    Targeting complete.
[06:40] Gu
    Fire!
[06:46] K
    They've fired it.
[06:51] R
    We've done all we can.
[07:06] Gu
    Countdown to impact. Ten. Nine. Eight.
[07:10] Gu
    The clouds around the Neuroi are returning!
[07:13] Gu
    What?
[07:19] Gi
    The clouds stopped that AP round!
[07:22] R
    Are the clouds acting as a barrier?
[07:28] Gi
    The AP round!
[07:34] Gi
    No...
[07:36] K
    That isn't fair.
[07:38] Gi
    Damn it!
[07:39] Gi
    Damn it!
[07:41] R
    We failed.
[07:52] Gu
    All AP rounds, including spares,
    have been destroyed.
[07:56] Gu
    We're out of options, huh?
[08:00] Gu
    Tell all forces to retreat.
[08:10] H
    Sis!
[08:13] Gi
    Hikari!
[08:16] K
    Hikari-chan?
[08:17] R
    Hikari-san?
[08:18] R
    Hikari!
[08:18] Gi
    Hikari-san?
[08:19] Gi
    Hikari-san...
[08:21] Gi
    Karibuchi-san...
[08:22] Gi
    You're back?
[08:23] H
    Sis!
[08:24] H
    Hang in there, Sis!
[08:26] H
    Don't die!
[08:28] K
    It's all right, Hikari-chan.
[08:30] H
    Huh? But she used the Absolute Eye...
[08:33] R
    While she was vulnerable, we all
    protected her with our shields.
[08:37] R
    And Georgette's healing magic took
    care of her physical damage.
[08:41] Gi
    Her pulse and temperature
    are in normal ranges.
[08:44] Gi
    Don't worry.
[08:45] R
    But we couldn't block all the attacks,
[08:48] R
    and she was injured.
[08:51] R
    I'm sorry.
[08:53] H
    You all saved her, didn't you?
[08:57] H
    Thank you!
[09:01] T
    Hikari...
[09:02] H
    Sis!
[09:04] T
    I'm sorry, Hikari.
[09:06] T
    I couldn't beat the enemy.
[09:07] H
    No...
[09:08] H
    Why are you apologizing?
[09:10] S
    It isn't your fault.
[09:12] Gi
    That's right...
[09:13] Gi
    You did all you could.
[09:14] Gi
    Damn it!
[09:15] Gi
    Takami risked her life to find that core!
[09:18] Gi
    Can't we do anything else?
[09:21] K
    Look!
[09:36] Gi
    We have to sit here and watch
    as Petersburg falls?
[09:45] H
    You don't know where the true core is, do you?
[09:49] H
    Let me use my Contact Eye.
[09:52] H
    I'll fight, too!
[09:54] T
    Hikari?
[09:56] K
    I understand how you feel, but...
[09:58] S
    Without the trains or the AP rounds...
[10:02] Gi
    Me, too!
[10:03] Gi
    I want to fight, too!
[10:05] Gi
    I'm still in top shape!
[10:07] Gi
    I also have magical power left.
[10:09] Gi
    Till there's nothing left, I don't want to give up.
[10:13] Gi
    If I don't have any shells, I have my fists.
[10:16] Gi
    I'll punch it!
[10:18] Gi
    That's impossible.
[10:19] Gi
    Grigori is a Neuroi nest.
[10:23] R
    Flight Leader?
[10:24] R
    My old wounds feel strangely warm...
[10:28] R
    I sense something over there.
[10:34] R
    This is it.
[10:36] R
    The AP round's shattered core, huh?
[10:39] R
    It still has magic power left inside.
[10:43] Gu
    Members of the 502nd, you did well.
[10:47] Gu
    But we no longer have any way to fight.
[10:52] Gu
    Retreat.
[10:54] H
    Retreat?
[10:55] R
    Wait, Marshal.
[10:57] R
    We have a plan.
[10:59] Gu
    What?
[11:01] R
    Kanno.
[11:03] R
    You're getting your wish.
[11:06] R
    Go punch it.
SIGN    502nd Joint Fighter Wing
    <Brave Witches>
    
    After "Operation Barbarossa" was completed with the forces 
    of the Empire of Karlsland at its center, 
    this joint fighter wing was formed and centered in Petersburg 
    to follow the 501st for future counterattack measures.
    
    With Flight Wing Commander Gundula Rall as their squadron leader, 
    they are very strong as an offensive squad, but their waste 
    and attrition rate of ammunition is also very high.
    
    Currently, they have nine members including 
    Sub-lieutenant Karibuchi Takami from Fusou, but...
[11:13] H
    Punch it?
[11:14] K
    Grigori?
[11:15] Gi
    How?
[11:17] S
    Flight Leader...
[11:18] R
    Are you serious?
[11:19] Gi
    Now, I'm getting excited!
[11:29] R
    There isn't time.
[11:30] R
    Let's do this!
[11:32] Gu
    I see.
[11:33] Gu
    Understood.
[11:35] Gu
    Is that even possible?
[11:37] Gu
    They're our only hope now.
[11:41] S
    The impact did this to it, but there's
    still magical power inside.
[11:46] GI
    With it in pieces like this, what can we do?
[11:49] R
    We move it to Kanno's hand.
[11:51] Gi
    Huh?
[11:52] S
    More specifically, we transfer the
    magic power to Kanno-san's glove.
[11:57] Gi
    My gloves?
[11:58] Gi
    Oh!
[11:59] Gi
    No...
[12:04] H
    Here, Kanno-san!
[12:07] Gi
    Ready for anything, huh?
[12:09] Gi
    I'm borrowing these, Hikari.
[12:24] H
    Wow!
[12:25] R
    Her right hand has become the AP round itself.
[12:29] R
    Hey! I found it!
[12:34] R
    The core of the super HE round.
[12:36] R
    It was shattered, too.
[12:39] K
    This is all we can use.
[12:41] R
    Perfect.
[12:45] K
    Nao-chan's amazing, huh?
[12:47] K
    She's really going to punch it.
[12:49] R
    Listen. You only get one strike.
[12:52] Gi
    One strike is all I need.
[12:54] Gi
    Right, Hikari?
[12:55] H
    Huh?
[12:56] Gi
    Don't "Huh?" me.
[12:58] Gi
    You're my partner, right?
[13:01] H
    Kanno-san!
[13:02] Gi
    For starters, I can't punch the true
    core without your Contact Eye.
[13:11] H
    Right!
[13:17] H
    Sis...
[13:19] T
    You cannot afford to fail.
[13:21] T
    Can you do it?
[13:23] H
    Well...
[13:25] H
    But...
[13:27] H
    We won't know until we try!
[13:37] Gi
    I thought you'd say that.
[13:44] T
    Hikari, use Chidori.
[13:47] T
    Okay!
[13:54] R
    All right, let's go punch this thing!
[13:57] T
    Roger!
[14:03] T
    It's true.
[14:05] T
    You won't know if you can
    do something or not until you try
[14:09] T
    But maybe I was afraid of something
    so obvious when it came to Hikari.
[14:16] Gi
    Sub-lieutenant Karibuchi...
[14:18] T
    Now, our only choice is to believe in her.
[14:21] T
    You can do it, Hikari.
[14:28] R
    During the last battle, Takami was
    the first to find the true core.
[14:34] R
    But it was Hikari whose location
    was the more precise.
[14:40] R
    If we only have one chance, I'll bet
    all my chips on Hikari.
[14:45] R
    Only an idiot would gamble on this, though.
[14:50] K
    I like that.
[14:51] K
    I'm in.
[14:53] R
    Hikari-san, you weren't a very good student.
[14:57] R
    But you worked harder than anyone else.
[15:00] R
    Show me the result of all your efforts.
[15:04] H
    Right, Rossmann-sensei.
[15:09] S
    Analyzing my memories of the
    way the clouds formed,
[15:13] S
    I've confirmed that grid H2223
    T3358 is the weak point.
[15:19] R
    Roger.
[15:20] Gi
    12,000 meters to Grigori.
[15:23] R
    At its current speed, it will swallow
    Petersburg in fifteen minutes.
[15:28] R
    We'll finish this in five.
[15:30] R
    Go!
[15:30] All
    Roger!
[15:44] Gu
    We're counting on you, Brave Witches.
[15:57] ---
    There it is!
[16:05] R
    Now...
[16:07] S
    Arrow formation.
[16:16] K
    Don't get in my way!
[16:21] H
    Let's go, Chidori.
[16:35] S
    Break!
[16:40] S
    Hang on until we get Kanno-san and
    Hikari-san to the main body, no matter what!
[16:45] Gi
    My Unit is going to scream!
[16:46] K
    Promise not to get mad if I break it?
[16:51] S
    As long as those two get there!
[16:53] Gi
    The enemy attacks are thinning
    to the upper left.
[16:56] K
    Magic Boost!
[17:07] K
    Almost there!
[17:08] Gi
    Go!
[17:26] H
    Over there!
[17:35] Gi
    Not bad.
[17:37] Gi
    Never thought the day would
    come where I'd be following her.
[17:48] H
    Here!
[17:52] Gi
    Tsurugi Issen!
[17:59] Gi
    Break!
[18:11] H
    Almost there!
[18:12] H
    One more punch, Kanno-san!
[18:18] Gi
    I've got nothing left.
[18:20] H
    Kanno-san!
[18:30] H
    Concentrate your power
    into your right hand...
[18:34] H
    And shoot!
[19:08] T
    Hikari...
[19:22] T
    Hikari!
[19:25] Gi
    Hup!
[19:26] T
    Hikari!
[19:29] H
    Ow...
[19:31] H
    Sis!
[19:32] T
    You did it, Hikari!
[19:34] T
    You really did get stronger...
[19:36] T
    You're amazing.
[19:37] T
    You're really amazing!
[19:39] ---
    You did a great job.
[19:40] H
    No, it wasn't me.
[19:43] H
    It was thanks to everyone.
[19:48] Gi
    Kanno!
[19:52] Gi
    I'm so glad...
[19:54] Gi
    Are you hurt?
[19:58] Gi
    That hurt more than anything else.
[20:01] Gi
    G-Georgette!
[20:02] Gi
    I'm out of magical power.
[20:05] K
    Whew, it's done!
[20:11] R
    Good work.
[20:12] R
    You, too.
[20:16] Gi
    Look!
[20:17] S
    The clouds are disappearing.
[20:18] Gu
    We did it, Marshal.
[20:20] Gu
    Yes, thanks to them.
[20:25] Gu
    The 502nd Joint Fighter Wing,
    the Brave Witches.
[20:31] Gu
    Blessings be upon the Witches
    of the battlefield.
[20:38] T
    It's pretty, huh?
[20:39] H
    Yeah.
[20:40] S
    Even here, spring is about to come.
[20:43] Gi
    A peaceful spring, huh?
[20:47] Gi
    Hungry?
[20:49] Gi
    Yeah, my stomach feels empty
    enough to stick to my back.
[20:52] H
    Mine, too!
[20:56] Gi
    Oh, no!
[20:57] S
    Nipa-san, did you break it again?
[21:02] S
    Wait... No.
[21:05] K
    After that battle, none of the
    Units are in good shape.
[21:09] H
    Then, we all kneel, don't we?
[21:13] R
    Jeez...
[21:14] R
    We're going home, Break Witches.

    March, 1945.
[21:31] Narr
    The complete destruction of the Orussian
    Neuroi nest, Grigori, is confirmed.
[21:37] Narr
    And the 502nd Joint Fight Wing...
[21:51] H
    It's warm today, huh?
[21:53] T
    Is it?
[21:54] H
    Yeah, the water in the cup didn't freeze.
[21:59] T
    You used to hate the cold, Hikari.
[22:03] H
    I'm used to it now.
[22:08] Gu
    Sub-lieutenant Karibuchi,
    we're about to head out.
[22:11] T
    Right.
[22:12] Gu
    What will you do, Sergeant?
[22:14] H
    Huh?
[22:18] H
    I...
[22:24] Gi
    The Brave Witches, huh?
[22:26] Gi
    With Grigori's defeat, they're being deployed
    to the next battle, without a break.
[22:31] H
    Yes.
[22:32] H
    So they need all the Witches they can get!
[22:37] H
    Sis...
[22:40] T
    Get going.
[22:42] H
    Right.
[22:49] Gu
    She's giving herself a trial to overcome?
[22:53] T
    She's found it.
[22:54] T
    Hikari's found the place where
    she can shine the brightest.
[22:59] Narr
    March, 1945.
[23:02] Narr
    Sergeant Karibuchi Hikari becomes
    an official member of the 502nd,
[23:09] Narr
    and flies off to a new battlefield.
