[00:15] ---
You're going to the future now.
[00:18] ---
To the future?
[00:20] ---
What about you?
[00:21] ---
Dio is waiting, Aoba.
[00:25] ---
Hina... Hina!
[00:34] ---
Beat your wings
[00:36] ---
See the light of hope
in the sky you have yet to see
[00:41] ---
And don't ever give in
to the weight of sorrow
[00:44] ---
Echo unto eternity, UNISONIA
[00:54] ---
That world you see before your eyes
[00:59] ---
What colors is it made up of?
[01:04] ---
Measure feeling match
[01:07] ---
The pain of loss isn't something
[01:10] ---
You want to get used to, and yet
[01:12] ---
Even on a night like this,
the stars are beautiful
[01:18] ---
Like a tarnished coin spilling
from the palm of your hand
[01:24] ---
Can't go back
[01:26] ---
Want to go home
[01:27] ---
The two, back-to-back
[01:30] ---
Break through
[01:32] ---
Turning unfading emotions
into a lasting bond
[01:37] ---
Like painting over a colorless world
[01:40] ---
Let this sympathy reach
[01:43] ---
Growing the wing
[01:45] ---
Let's build the
future that we envision
[01:49] ---
We can change even fate
[01:52] ---
Transcending time, UNISONIA
[02:01] ---
"Nice Coupling"
[02:07] ---
"Advanced Tactical System"
"Research and Development Laboratory"
[02:09] ---
Enemy Zogilia force
composed of six Valiancers.
[02:11] ---
Garrison Team and assault
aeroship Zuihou are returning fire,
[02:13] ---
but taking heavy casualties!
[02:19] ---
Leave the materials ranked
C or lower untillater!
[02:20] ---
Top priority goes to fuel, ammo, and food!
[02:21] ---
What a pretty pickle to get into.
[02:23] ---
We just had to come under
attack while loading up cargo.
[02:25] ---
How much longer until we can take off?
[02:27] ---
Resupply, 3 Gauge remaining!
[02:29] ---
Cygnus Valiancer Team,
please prepare to sortie.
[02:32] ---
Lieutenant Conrad here, requesting
permission to mobilize Dio's Bradyon.
[02:36] ---
Captain?
[02:40] ---
We can't even request to
mobilize the Luxon, though.
[02:43] ---
Dio, you okay?
[02:45] ---
Yes.
[02:46] ---
This is payback for Marcus.
[02:48] ---
With three Valiancers,
we might have a chance.
[02:50] ---
The enemy is probably
after Dio's Valiancer, right?
[02:52] ---
Will the brass go for it?
[02:54] ---
Lieutenant, permission to mobilize
the Bradyon has been granted.
[02:57] ---
The Captain asks that you do your utmost
to keep it from falling into enemy hands.
[03:00] ---
More unreasonable demands
for you to live up to, Dio Weinberg.
[03:03] ---
Stow the chitchat, Jarl.
[03:05] ---
You'll be sitting ducks
if you go up straight.
[03:07] ---
If you don't want to die, follow me.
[03:09] ---
Here we go!
[03:10] ---
Roger.
[03:11] ---
Roger!
[03:17] ---
Is this their idea of putting up a fight?
[03:20] ---
I'm laughing it up here, Bizon.
[03:22] ---
Tarjim, our objective is
not to defeat the enemy.
[03:26] ---
Keep your eyes peeled for any and
all suspicious facilities or equipment!
[03:28] ---
Bizon, reinforcements.
[03:32] ---
You three above me, come with me!
[03:34] ---
Roger!
[03:41] ---
Once we're out of the smoke,
we take a pass at the enemy.
[03:43] ---
We'll break away before
they can return fire.
[03:45] ---
Roger.
[03:47] ---
Enemy craft!
[03:48] ---
What?!
[03:49] ---
You called it, Bizon.
[03:52] ---
No existing data. It's
probably a new model.
[03:54] ---
So that's the jackpot.
[03:56] ---
Benesh and Passo, you take the Beryls.
[03:57] ---
Lasha and Mikhailov, take the new model.
[03:59] ---
Tarjim and I will take the aeroship.
[04:02] ---
Don't let your guards down!
[04:04] ---
Roger!
[04:16] ---
How does it look, Lasha?
[04:17] ---
It's tougher than a Beryl,
but I think we can handle it.
[04:21] ---
If you can capture it, do it.
[04:22] ---
Roger!
[04:27] ---
I can't shake them.
[04:37] ---
Who's that?!
[04:44] ---
Nice Coupling.
[04:46] ---
The Luxon is showing a
Nice Coupling reading for Dio's Bradyon!
[04:50] ---
What?
[04:51] ---
What did you say?!
[04:54] ---
That's impossible!
[04:55] ---
M-Maybe the pilot Marcus is on board?
[04:58] ---
But Marcus's vitals ceased
to register 20 minutes ago.
[05:03] ---
And anyway, the hatch was supposed
to have been buried under rubble.
[05:06] ---
Can we see inside?
[05:07] ---
The internal camera is broken,
so we have no visuals.
[05:10] ---
This is Lieutenant
Commander Lene Kleinbeck.
[05:12] ---
State your name and affiliation.
[05:14] ---
Who's that?
[05:15] ---
Hina?
[05:16] ---
Where's her voice coming from?
[05:18] ---
Hina?
[05:19] ---
Is that you, Hina? Where the heck am I?
[05:22] ---
Your name and affiliation!
[05:24] ---
That's not Hina?
[05:26] ---
Uh, well, Aoba Watase,
a first year at Seio High School.
[05:30] ---
Aoba Watase?
[05:32] ---
Someone from the lab?
[05:34] ---
At any rate, it's dangerous there.
[05:36] ---
Move it in front of the cargo elevator.
[05:38] ---
You tell me to move it, but...
[05:40] ---
Don't tell me you don't
even have a Category A?!
[05:42] ---
Piloting without a license is
against military regulations!
[05:45] ---
Get off the craft at once!
[05:46] ---
Get off? But how do I do that?
[05:49] ---
You will face disciplinary
action once combat is over!
[05:51] ---
Sit tight until then!
[05:58] ---
NECTTAR Gun 3 has been hit!
[05:59] ---
Only three guns capable
of deploying Curtains remain!
[06:01] ---
What about the Valiancers?
[06:02] ---
Two on the Bradyon.
One each on Beryls A and C.
[06:05] ---
Still engaging the enemy.
[06:08] ---
Mayu, what was it that you said earlier?
[06:11] ---
Um, that the Luxon showed a
Nice Coupling reading for the Bradyon...
[06:15] ---
Right.
[06:17] ---
Let's have the two conduct the Coupling.
[06:19] ---
What?!
[06:20] ---
Captain?!
[06:21] ---
The battle isn't going well for us.
[06:23] ---
At this rate, the Luxon will be
captured by the enemy without a fight.
[06:27] ---
If he can share Dio's abilities,
[06:29] ---
even a beginner could at least
move to the elevator, right?
[06:32] ---
You intend to have Dio conduct a Coupling
with someone we know nothing about?!
[06:36] ---
The reading is green, right?
[06:38] ---
Yes...
[06:39] ---
But sir...
[06:41] ---
There are issues with maintaining
classified information as well!
[06:43] ---
I'm fine with taking
responsibility on that score.
[06:45] ---
If we leave things as they stand,
[06:47] ---
not only will they be in
jeopardy, but so will we.
[06:50] ---
Besides, it's not in my nature
to take a beating lying down.
[06:53] ---
You know that, don't you, Lt. Commander?
[07:01] ---
Luxon, Bradyon, initiate
the Coupling process!
[07:04] ---
Roger!
[07:10] ---
But XO!
[07:11] ---
CO's orders.
[07:13] ---
Roger.
[07:15] ---
Do you hear me?!
[07:17] ---
I'm going to conduct a
Coupling with you now.
[07:19] ---
What? A Coupling?
[07:21] ---
You just have to do what I tell you!
[07:28] ---
What the heck?
[07:37] ---
Is this for real?
[07:47] ---
I'd say we just have a little more to go.
[07:51] ---
Hey, there's another one!
[07:53] ---
I'll go!
[07:54] ---
Wait.
[07:55] ---
Mikhailov, you go.
[07:57] ---
Tarjim, you come back.
[07:59] ---
Roger.
[08:02] ---
That's no fun, Bizon.
[08:04] ---
Are they onto us?!
[08:05] ---
Damn it! I won't let you go over there!
[08:08] ---
Do you hear me?!
[08:09] ---
Call out, "Connective, Dio!"
[08:11] ---
Bradyon in range to
receive the Seventh Code!
[08:14] ---
Roger!
[08:18] ---
I should go back him up.
[08:21] ---
C-Connective...
[08:23] ---
"Connective!" That's "Connective, Dio!"
[08:26] ---
Dio?
[08:28] ---
Dio is waiting.
[08:29] ---
That's right! "Connective, Dio!"
[08:31] ---
You're Dio?!
[08:32] ---
What?!
[08:38] ---
Dio, I'm Aoba Watase!
[08:41] ---
Hina said you'd be waiting!
[08:51] ---
Dio, what's going on?
You're going to move out of range!
[08:54] ---
Hurry up and conduct the Proposing!
[08:56] ---
Aoba Watase, just do what I tell you!
[09:00] ---
All right.
[09:03] ---
He's headed towards the same place?
[09:05] ---
Mikhailov, just fire from where you are!
[09:07] ---
Roger!
[09:14] ---
You hear me?
[09:15] ---
It's "Connective, Dio!"
[09:18] ---
Connective, Dio!
[09:21] ---
Acception!
[09:22] ---
Linkage commencing!
[09:24] ---
First Proposing!
[10:02] ---
Did I get him?!
[10:07] ---
What?!
[10:15] ---
What the hell is that?!
[10:16] ---
They transformed?!
[10:24] ---
Coupling...
[10:25] ---
It's a success!
[10:27] ---
The Match is optimal!
[10:40] ---
He's coming!
[10:48] ---
What?!
[10:49] ---
He's fast!
[10:58] ---
So, the Coupling was a success.
[11:00] ---
For real?!
[11:01] ---
Incredible...
[11:03] ---
For him to be this compatible with me...
[11:08] ---
Did I just... take control of a robot?
[11:11] ---
That's right.
[11:12] ---
With the Coupling established,
you now share Dio's piloting knowledge.
[11:16] ---
Share?
[11:17] ---
You already know how
to control Valiancers now.
[11:21] ---
Enemy incoming!
[11:22] ---
Enemy?!
[11:33] ---
This is...
[11:41] ---
What the heck is this?
[11:46] ---
He's almost on me already!
[11:56] ---
It moved!
[12:06] ---
Damn it!
[12:07] ---
Why you!
[12:10] ---
How powerful is this thing?!
[12:11] ---
The Bradyon is at double
its usual power output!
[12:14] ---
The Coupling is living
up to our expectations?
[12:16] ---
More importantly, never mind walking,
[12:18] ---
that guy over there has
gone straight into combat.
[12:21] ---
Is that the Coupling, too?
[12:23] ---
No, he's not normal.
[12:25] ---
He rated high, but for
him to be at this level!
[12:29] ---
You're nothing but a
Confederation Valiancer!
[12:42] ---
Damn it!
[12:50] ---
I'm flying?!
[12:52] ---
You're not getting away!
[12:55] ---
He's coming!
[12:59] ---
There it is again!
[13:04] ---
All right!
[13:19] ---
Mikhailov!
[13:20] ---
He got him?!
[13:21] ---
How dare you?!
[13:24] ---
You're not going anywhere!
[13:25] ---
Damn it!
[13:26] ---
Arm 2 severed! Only close
quarter combat blade left on hand!
[13:29] ---
Damn.
[13:30] ---
All mission craft, retreat!
[13:33] ---
We've ferreted out the new model.
[13:34] ---
Taking further losses would be pointless.
[13:37] ---
Roger.
[13:38] ---
Hey, man, are you serious, Bizon?
[13:47] ---
I just finished this guy off.
[13:49] ---
Move it, Tarjim! Or we're
leaving you behind!
[13:52] ---
Roger!
[13:57] ---
Enemy force retreating!
[13:59] ---
Valiancer Team, return to base.
[14:07] ---
If the enemy came from the south,
[14:09] ---
there's the possibility of a second wave.
[14:11] ---
It looks like we're in for a hectic time.
[14:13] ---
Captain, what shall we do with
the person on board the Luxon?
[14:17] ---
I don't think we have much of a choice.
[14:20] ---
This secret base is finished, anyway.
[14:22] ---
Mayu, come with me!
[14:23] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[14:34] ---
Is it over?
[14:42] ---
Decoupling.
[14:51] ---
What's happening?
[15:11] ---
Rush order issued for all personnel.
[15:11] ---
Quickly secure everything
that's been brought in!
[15:13] ---
Soft reboot good on all craft!
[15:21] ---
He still hasn't come out?
[15:23] ---
Maybe he doesn't even
know the basic controls?
[15:25] ---
Hey, what's the matter?!
[15:29] ---
Dio?
[15:31] ---
What do I have to do to get it to open?
[15:34] ---
Maybe it's down here...
[15:41] ---
It opened!
[15:43] ---
Thank goodness...
[15:47] ---
Who are you?
[15:49] ---
So, using an out-of-the-way
laboratory location came back to bite us.
[15:54] ---
And to have one of the Couplers die...
[15:57] ---
I believe we ought to evacuate immediately.
[16:00] ---
Agreed.
[16:01] ---
We can't make your
existence publicly known,
[16:04] ---
so openly sending reinforcements
is out of the question.
[16:06] ---
Head for the main base immediately.
[16:09] ---
Furthermore, make sure you
leave no trace of our experiments.
[16:12] ---
Yes, sir.
[16:13] ---
By the way, with regards to
the new qualifier in my report...
[16:16] ---
I told you, leave no trace.
[16:19] ---
Understood, sir.
[16:24] ---
The year... 2088?
[16:27] ---
That's right.
[16:29] ---
This war... What's going on?
[16:31] ---
What do you mean?
[16:32] ---
Uh, well...
[16:35] ---
Where do I even begin?
[16:40] ---
Currently, the nation of Japan is allied
with the Liberty Treaty Confederation
[16:44] ---
and this ship is also a Confederation ship.
[16:46] ---
The Confederation has been at
war with the Republic of Great Zogilia
[16:49] ---
since the year before last, and as you
saw, the fighting has been intense.
[16:53] ---
Well? Do you understand now?
[16:55] ---
Is this really... the future?
[16:58] ---
Huh?
[16:59] ---
XO, this guy keeps insisting
that he's from the past.
[17:03] ---
It's the truth, Dio!
[17:06] ---
Don't address me by name so familiarly.
[17:08] ---
But you're Dio, right?!
[17:09] ---
I have no reason to let you call me that.
[17:11] ---
But Hina said...
[17:13] ---
Put the gun away already!
[17:15] ---
Not until you reveal your true identity.
[17:18] ---
None of this crap about
coming from 70 years ago!
[17:20] ---
Like I said, I'm not lying!
[17:22] ---
Both of you, that's enough.
[17:23] ---
Dio, put your gun away.
[17:27] ---
XO, message from the Captain.
[17:29] ---
You're asked to come to the Captain's office
along with Officer Hill and Ensign Weinberg.
[17:33] ---
Understood. Thank you.
[17:35] ---
Ensign Weinberg.
[17:37] ---
Yes, ma'am.
[17:38] ---
Hold on a second!
[17:40] ---
Hey, Dio!
[17:42] ---
Her name is Hina Yumihara!
[17:43] ---
She's a girl with long hair and
she was wearing this hair clip!
[17:50] ---
She said that you...
[17:52] ---
I know nothing of this.
[18:04] ---
Mikhailov's ultimate sacrifice has
brought us one step closer to victory.
[18:09] ---
We received word that the
Liberty Treaty Confederation
[18:11] ---
had a new Valiancer that had acquired
tactical capabilities not so long ago.
[18:14] ---
With all the numerous
dummies that they'd deployed,
[18:17] ---
it seems you did a magnificent
job hitting the jackpot.
[18:20] ---
The Adminburo back home
is urgently demanding a sample specimen.
[18:25] ---
You will capture one
immediately, I presume,
[18:28] ---
Commander Gallant?
[18:30] ---
Of course, Madam Special Officer.
[18:33] ---
I look forward to seeing results.
[18:35] ---
Slava Zogilia.
[18:39] ---
So, what about his claim?
[18:41] ---
Everything he had on him were
things that existed about 70 years ago.
[18:45] ---
Having said that,
many of the items can be faked,
[18:48] ---
so it's a real stretch
to take him at his word.
[18:50] ---
We're talking about time
travel here, after all.
[18:53] ---
Well, that sounds like a normal response.
[18:55] ---
How shall we deal with him?
[18:57] ---
He's the hero who saved us, but...
[19:00] ---
We can't have him leaking
our secrets, either.
[19:03] ---
I'd say we have to have him
come with us to the main base.
[19:05] ---
I believe that is a sound decision.
[19:07] ---
Where is he now?
[19:08] ---
Lieutenant Conrad invited
him to his own cabin
[19:10] ---
until we passed the verdict on his fate.
[19:12] ---
There goes Lee again, taking liberties...
[19:14] ---
No, it's inside the ship
[19:17] ---
and we also have a tracer on him,
so there's no need to restrain him.
[19:20] ---
Throwing him straight into a cell
would only serve to foster bitterness.
[19:24] ---
Captain, do you intend to
make use of him again?
[19:27] ---
Don't like that idea?
[19:29] ---
He's still technically the Buddy
you conducted a Coupling with, right?
[19:31] ---
That was an act of necessity.
[19:33] ---
With a bastard like him? Never again.
[19:36] ---
Well, let's pray that such
an occasion never arises again.
[19:39] ---
As soon as we're ready,
[19:41] ---
the Cygnus will take off
for the North America Base.
[19:43] ---
Roger.
[19:45] ---
It seems you've been allowed to keep these.
[19:47] ---
Thank you.
[19:51] ---
Um, are you all right?
[19:56] ---
You don't look too all right.
[19:59] ---
Here.
[20:00] ---
What?
[20:00] ---
Eat a little something and unwind.
[20:02] ---
Thanks.
[20:04] ---
Fifteen minutes to takeoff.
[20:06] ---
I have to go back.
[20:11] ---
Hey.
[20:13] ---
The door will open if you press here.
[20:16] ---
But it's a big place,
so be careful not to get lost.
[20:19] ---
Okay.
[20:19] ---
See you later.
[20:23] ---
What's going on?
[20:27] ---
Have I really traveled to the future?
[20:31] ---
Hina, is it really like you said?
[20:35] ---
You're going to the future now.
[20:37] ---
Dio is waiting.
[20:41] ---
He totally wasn't waiting...
[20:49] ---
Ogi, how's it look?
[20:51] ---
Main engine almost at critical threshold.
[20:53] ---
Sensor range, all clear of hostiles.
[20:59] ---
There are a lot of unknowns
about the new model's capabilities.
[21:01] ---
Don't let your guards down.
[21:02] ---
Roger!
[21:07] ---
Engine, ready!
[21:08] ---
Navigation, good to go!
[21:10] ---
Information, fusion complete!
[21:12] ---
FCS, all green!
[21:15] ---
Captain.
[21:16] ---
Mm.
[21:18] ---
Cygnus, lift off.
[21:28] ---
What's going on?
[21:29] ---
We're moving?
[22:14] ---
I pray that this mission is successful.
[22:16] ---
Death to the foes of Zogilia.
[22:18] ---
Death to the foes of Zogilia.
[22:20] ---
Death to the foes of Zogilia.
[22:22] ---
Death to the foes of Zogilia.
[22:24] ---
Death to the foes of Zogilia.
[22:27] ---
With my heart, I call out
[22:31] ---
To the far side, mutually drawn
[22:35] ---
Forgetting even the reason I ache

Just for now, please
[22:44] ---
I know you
[22:49] ---
I'm looking for you
[22:53] ---
Softly pressing my lips to the bright
afterimage I can't keep from leaving
[23:02] ---
If hesitation is what gives way
to the slightest of hopes
[23:11] ---
To as many gentle mornings
as the times I have wandered
[23:20] ---
In the future that
leads back to that sky,
[23:24] ---
I want to save you,
I want to protect you
[23:29] ---
In the future that arrives at that dream
[23:33] ---
Wait for me
[23:36] ---
The love we'll surely find
[23:41] ---
I want you to reach out for it
[23:48] ---
Next time on Buddy Complex.
[23:48] ---
"Next Time 'Meeting Again'"
[23:51] ---
"Meeting Again."
