[00:09] ---
    It's not your fault, Casshern!
[00:11] ---
    It's not your fault!
[00:14] ---
    It's not...
[00:23] ---
    Hey, for what reason were we born?
[00:27] ---
    Hey, for what reason did our lives cross?
[00:31] ---
    I'm scared because I don't know,
    so I take your hand

[00:36] ---
    Right now, I want you to
    firmly squeeze mine back

[00:49] ---
    I try to escape this harrowing reality
[00:53] ---
    Everything I hoped for in my life
    turned out to be an illusion

[01:00] ---
    A flood of emotions,
    struggles that lead me astray...

[01:04] ---
    I just want to cling onto them
    and move forward, forward!

[01:07] ---
    On these shattered hills,
    under a sky of rust,

[01:11] ---
    you and I are fraught with
    life like azure flowers

[01:16] ---
    We dream that we're bubbles,
    nestled together,

[01:20] ---
    and yet I'm not ready to wither yet!
[01:24] ---
    Hey, for what reason were we born?
[01:28] ---
    Hey, for what reason did our lives cross?
[01:32] ---
    I'm scared because I don't know,
    so I take your hand

[01:37] ---
    Right now, I want you to
    firmly squeeze mine back

[01:59] ---
    Casshern.
[02:02] ---
    My hands are falling to Ruin.
[02:06] ---
    No, I'm sure Luna will stop the Ruin.
[02:11] ---
    If I believe in her, she'll stop it...
[02:15] ---
    See, look. Look!
[02:17] ---
    The Ruin stopped! It stopped!
[02:21] ---
    There's not a spot of rust on me!
[02:26] ---
    All those who don't wish
    to die should go to Luna!
[02:34] ---
    Be healed by Luna!
[02:41] ---
    Luna's alive? But how?
[02:44] ---
    "The Past Rises Before My Eyes"
[02:52] ---
    Healing?
[02:54] ---
    What sort of healing exists in this world?
[03:06] ---
    Are you going to Luna?
[03:10] ---
    I am.
[03:13] ---
    It's lies. Mere rumors.
[03:16] ---
    You killed Luna yourself.
[03:18] ---
    That's what started the Ruin.
[03:21] ---
    You think your sin will be cleansed
    if she's still alive, don't you?
[03:28] ---
    That's impossible.
[03:29] ---
    Luna's dead.
[03:32] ---
    Do you not wish for Luna to be alive?
[03:40] ---
    I do, but...
[03:45] ---
    But then what did she die for?
[03:50] ---
    What am I...?
[03:52] ---
    What am I seeking vengeance for?
[04:09] ---
    I'm going to see Luna.
[04:15] ---
    We'll talk after that.
[04:37] ---
    All fugitives will die.
[04:40] ---
    Luna will stop the Ruin?
[04:42] ---
    Stop clinging to hopeless dreams!
[04:44] ---
    All we have to do is trust in Lord Dio!
[04:49] ---
    That Luna girl survived.
[04:54] ---
    She heals both robots
    and people alike, yes?
[04:59] ---
    That's no different from the old Luna.
[05:02] ---
    Yes.
[05:03] ---
    The only difference was the
    Ruin didn't exist back then.
[05:08] ---
    Back then,
[05:09] ---
    I never understood why
    Braiking Boss ordered Luna's death.
[05:19] ---
    But I'm sure you understand it now.
[05:24] ---
    For there can only be one king.
[05:38] ---
    Luna, huh?
[05:41] ---
    Luna... Luna...
[05:44] ---
    Luna...
[05:49] ---
    Luna...
    Luna! Luna!
[05:55] ---
    Ohji, what's Luna?
[05:59] ---
    Everyone's chanting "Luna, Luna."
[06:01] ---
    Yeah, it's just a fraud or a crazy person.
[06:05] ---
    Or maybe just a ghost. That's it.
[06:09] ---
    There's no way she'd be the real deal.
[06:13] ---
    Casshern killed Luna.
[06:16] ---
    Casshern did.
[06:23] ---
    Ohji...
[06:25] ---
    Smile!
[06:27] ---
    Smile, okay?
[06:41] ---
    You must be tired, Ringo.
[06:44] ---
    Want to stop and rest somewhere?
[06:49] ---
    Even if you met with Luna...
[06:51] ---
    Even if you learned everything...
[06:53] ---
    You'll come to realize
    it's exactly how I said it is.
[06:57] ---
    You aren't afraid?
[06:59] ---
    I would have been before.
[07:01] ---
    But not anymore.
[07:04] ---
    I've witnessed the Ruin firsthand.
[07:06] ---
    And now I want to stop it.
[07:10] ---
    Luna... Luna... Luna...
[07:24] ---
    Watch your footing.
[07:25] ---
    The ground gives way there.
[07:29] ---
    Luna... Luna...
[07:40] ---
    I've witnessed the Ruin firsthand.
[07:42] ---
    And now I want to stop it.
[07:46] ---
    To accomplish that, I first have
    to figure out what happened.
[07:53] ---
    Luna...
[07:55] ---
    Even if Luna's alive...
[07:59] ---
    Even if that's the case,
[08:01] ---
    you're responsible for the Ruin
    that's ravaging the world.
[08:08] ---
    It's just our luck to
    get a flat in the rain.
[08:13] ---
    Ohji, you okay?
[08:16] ---
    Yeah. It'll only be a minute.
[08:24] ---
    Rain! Rain!
[08:28] ---
    Ringo! You'll get wet!
[08:31] ---
    Wait in the truck!
[08:32] ---
    I'm fine, really!
[08:34] ---
    I love the rain!
[08:36] ---
    It makes the entire world sparkle!
[08:40] ---
    And I love the sound of the rain, too.
[08:56] ---
    What's this?
[09:04] ---
    So pretty!
[09:08] ---
    I know!
[09:12] ---
    I can see you!
[09:15] ---
    I can see you! I can!
[09:19] ---
    Oh, it's Casshern!
[09:21] ---
    Casshern's over there!
[09:23] ---
    Ringo, let's go!
[09:26] ---
    Ohji, Casshern's over there!
[09:29] ---
    Where?
[09:30] ---
    Down there.
[09:32] ---
    Casshern!
[09:33] ---
    Wait, Ringo!
[09:36] ---
    You come too, Ohji!
[09:40] ---
    Sheesh.
[09:46] ---
    I don't like the way
    those clouds are moving.
[09:50] ---
    Casshern!
[09:54] ---
    Cassher...
[09:55] ---
    Ringo?
[09:57] ---
    Ringo!
[10:00] ---
    I tripped.
[10:01] ---
    Ringo, are you all right?
[10:03] ---
    I'm fine!
[10:05] ---
    Look at this!
[10:06] ---
    Isn't it so pretty?
[10:09] ---
    I found it up there.
[10:11] ---
    What's wrong, Ringo?
[10:13] ---
    You're soaking wet.
[10:15] ---
    I'm fine!
[10:16] ---
    You are not fine.
[10:18] ---
    Running around without a coat?
    What if you started to rust?
[10:23] ---
    We have to dry you off somewhere.
[10:48] ---
    You should sit closer to the fire.
[10:57] ---
    Ringo, sit still.
[11:00] ---
    Okay!
[11:15] ---
    Ringo...
[11:16] ---
    The Ruin has advanced further on you.
[11:20] ---
    All right. Raise your arms.
[11:22] ---
    Okay!
[11:25] ---
    Ringo?
[11:26] ---
    Is this blood?
[11:29] ---
    Oh, it is.
[11:31] ---
    But it doesn't hurt! I'm fine!
[11:34] ---
    But you're rusting...
[11:41] ---
    You're dry now, right?
[11:43] ---
    Put your clothes on.
[11:45] ---
    Okay!
[11:49] ---
    Time to get dressed!
[12:35] ---
    Pardon the intrusion,
[12:37] ---
    but do you think I could also
    take shelter from the rain?
[12:41] ---
    This rain is hard on
    bodies falling to Ruin.
[13:08] ---
    It's cold! It feels great!
[13:12] ---
    Lyuze, look!
[13:14] ---
    Lyuze, come on!
[13:29] ---
    Why are you looking at him like that?
[13:35] ---
    You've been staring at Casshern
    since you walked in here.
[13:39] ---
    Have I?
[13:44] ---
    Are you going to see Luna, too?
[13:49] ---
    She's probably a fraud.
[13:51] ---
    Why's that?
[13:55] ---
    Because...
[13:57] ---
    Because?
[13:59] ---
    Because Casshern killed her?
[14:03] ---
    How? How do you know that?!
[14:09] ---
    If I put these tiny shells in here
[14:12] ---
    and do this...
[14:14] ---
    They'll probably be...
[14:18] ---
    Yup! They look pretty in there!
[14:21] ---
    All one needs to do is meet with her to see
[14:24] ---
    if she's the real Luna or not.
[14:27] ---
    And you'll find out what
    her healing really is.
[14:32] ---
    Casshern.
[14:34] ---
    That's...
[14:37] ---
    impossible.
[14:41] ---
    You're...
[14:56] ---
    You're...
[14:59] ---
    Braiking Boss!
[15:09] ---
    Casshern!
[15:12] ---
    L-Luna, you...
[15:17] ---
    Seems it's starting to come back to you.
[15:24] ---
    You'll have to learn it sooner or later.
[15:29] ---
    So you can take responsibility
    for what you've done to the world.
[15:33] ---
    Isn't that right, Professor?
[15:35] ---
    What are you talking about?
[15:39] ---
    Professor? Could you mean...
[15:48] ---
    Yes.
[15:50] ---
    The professor here is the one
    who created you, Casshern.
[16:13] ---
    Long ago, robots grew conceited
    and tried to become gods.
[16:19] ---
    No, it was something
    more foolish than that.
[16:23] ---
    They tried to create gods.
[16:26] ---
    For eternal life, you see...
    We had long achieved it.
[16:32] ---
    Even the humans did, once they
    advanced their medical technology.
[16:35] ---
    Only the most unlucky ones died.
[16:40] ---
    But they could do something
    the robots never could.
[16:48] ---
    They could reproduce.
[16:58] ---
    By being able to reproduce, we can
    surpass humans for the first time.
[17:04] ---
    We could become gods.
[17:06] ---
    That's impossible.
[17:10] ---
    It was theoretically possible.
[17:14] ---
    But they were entirely different
    from conventional robots,
[17:17] ---
    from their micro-structure on.
[17:19] ---
    A male form which could
    multiply the cells within its body,
[17:24] ---
    and a female form which could
[17:26] ---
    receive said cells and create a
    complete organism within itself.
[17:31] ---
    I speak of Casshern, Dio and Leda.
[17:38] ---
    Is that why Casshern's immortal?
[17:41] ---
    No, I had nothing to do with that.
[17:45] ---
    All three turned out to be failures.
[17:51] ---
    The only use they served was as
    highly durable killing machines.
[18:01] ---
    Killing...
[18:07] ---
    Am I truly nothing more
    than a killing machine?
[18:11] ---
    I know not how you became immortal.
[18:14] ---
    Perhaps it happened after you killed Luna.
[18:17] ---
    Indeed. Luna...
[18:21] ---
    It may have all begun once
    she appeared on the scene.
[18:29] ---
    Luna...
[18:31] ---
    The Sun named Moon.
    That's what they called her.
[18:38] ---
    Everyone eventually tired of eternal life.
[18:43] ---
    She healed that and gave
    us the strength to live.
[18:47] ---
    That's who Luna was.
[18:49] ---
    However, the world can have but one ruler.
[18:54] ---
    We have no need for two suns.
[18:57] ---
    And that's why I issued the order.
[19:04] ---
    Kill... Luna.
[19:23] ---
    Kill... Luna...
[19:27] ---
    Casshern!
[19:39] ---
    Kill...
[19:44] ---
    Luna!
[19:55] ---
    Casshern...
[20:08] ---
    It's going to be okay, Casshern.
[20:14] ---
    Kill...
[20:16] ---
    Luna!
[20:31] ---
    It's not your fault, Casshern.
[20:40] ---
    Kill...
[20:46] ---
    Luna!
[20:58] ---
    Kill!
[21:01] ---
    Kill...
[21:05] ---
    Casshern!
[21:07] ---
    You'll die if you do that!
[21:11] ---
    Kill...
[21:12] ---
    No! You can't!
[21:16] ---
    It's not your fault, Casshern!
[21:19] ---
    It's not your fault! It's not your fault!
[21:23] ---
    It's not...
[21:38] ---
    Stop this! You'll die for
    real if you do this!
[21:41] ---
    So... So please, stop!
[21:45] ---
    Please, Casshern!
[21:47] ---
    You can't! You can't!
[21:50] ---
    You can't!
[22:10] ---
    Look at yourself,
    reflected in the innocent eyes

[22:16] ---
    of that young child's smile
[22:23] ---
    Can you look her straight back in the eye
[22:27] ---
    without hesitating?
[22:38] ---
    It's a chain of moments
    that you can never rewind

[22:44] ---
    And they merely stretch
    on towards the future

[22:48] ---
    You there, become a raging wind
[22:54] ---
    Become a gently twinkling star
[23:00] ---
    The light that has awoken within you
[23:06] ---
    casts a pale shadow
[23:30] ---
    Those with inescapable pasts
[23:33] ---
    must simply walk alongside the truth.
[23:37] ---
    Next time: "The Truth
    Illuminates the Darkness."

[23:40] ---
