SIGN    Chaika the Coffin Princess
[01:51] Toru
    You're on Gavarni's side now?
[01:53] Toru
    On the battlefield, a saboteur
    does whatever it takes.
[01:56] Toru
    I'm not going to complain.
[01:58] Toru
    But why did you betray Chaika?
[02:00] Toru
    If you abandon your master,
    you're no longer a saboteur!
[02:03] Toru
    You're just an outlaw!
[02:23] Toru
    You're not going to argue?
SIGN    The False Princess
[02:43] Chaika
    Toru...
[02:44] Layla
    This way.
[02:46] Chaika
    Right.
[02:50] Chaika
    Other town girls not here?
[02:53] Layla
    So it seems.
[02:54] Layla
    They may have been moved to another room.
[02:57] Layla
    You're a thief, aren't you?
[03:00] Layla
    What did you come to steal?
[03:03] Chaika
    Remains. Father's.
[03:05] Layla
    Remains?
[03:07] ---
    Why?
[03:08] Chaika
    Father, funeral.
[03:10] Layla
    A funeral? I see...
[03:13] Layla
    So for you, that's the goal.
[03:16] Layla
    Please tell me your name.
[03:19] Chaika
    Chaika Trabant.
[03:22] Layla
    Wait here.
[03:25] Layla
    When I return, let's talk.
[03:35] Grad
    Ah, Layla. We'll be taking off soon.
SIGN    Where've you been?
[03:40] Layla
    Capturing the leader of the intruders.
SIGN    Really? The leader is the girl?
SIGN    Can I carve her up later?
[03:49] Layla
    As you please.
[03:59] Gillette
    The troops accompanying Stratus
    should be on their way here first.
[04:03] Gillette
    I'm going to try negotiating
    directly to delay their attack.
[04:07] Gillette
    I'll leave things here to you.
[04:08] Matheus
    Count on us.
[04:09] Nikolai
    Captain, don't do anything rash.
[04:11] Gillette
    I know.
[04:13] Gillette
    More importantly, be ready in
    case Vivi and Zita send for you.
[04:17] Nikolai
    Got it.
[04:18] Gillette
    We're going, then.
[04:22] Vivi
    We can't get out using levitation magic?
[04:25] Zita
    We could float in the air,
    but getting down from this height...
[04:36] Vivi
    Those guys...
[04:37] Vivi
    What are they doing here?
[04:59] Vivi
    Why did you save him?!
[05:01] Zita
    I have an idea.
[05:04] Toru
    I never expected to see you guys here.
[05:07] Toru
    Are you working with Duke Gavarni?
[05:09] Vivi
    What? With the Duke?
[05:11] Toru
    I bet you're the ones who spread
    the rumors of the remains, too.
[05:14] Zita
    I see...
[05:16] Zita
    You infiltrated Soara because
    you heard rumors that
[05:18] ---
    there were remains here.
[05:20] Zita
    Hey... Why don't we trade information?
[05:24] Vivi
    Zita, what are you saying? He's—
[05:26] Zita
    I know.
[05:27] Zita
    But since you got in here,
[05:30] Zita
    you must have a way out, as well, right?
[05:33] Vivi
    You want to have the enemy help us escape?
[05:35] Zita
    Right now, our duty is to
    return to our team alive.
[05:39] Zita
    That's what Gillette-sama would want.
[05:43] Toru
    Escape? What are you talking about?
[05:48] Toru
    An allied nations punitive force?
[05:50] Zita
    Yes. The attack will begin in the morning.
[05:53] Zita
    Our plan was to wait for this fortress to
[05:56] ---
    descend into the town and disembark...
[05:59] Toru
    But your plan's out of whack now, huh?
[06:01] Zita
    Yes.
[06:02] Vivi
    If you understand, then tell
    us how to get out of here!
[06:06] Toru
    Well, the circumstances aside,
    I do owe you for saving me.
[06:10] Toru
    I don't mind telling you,
    but we can't use it now.
[06:13] Toru
    We got separated.
[06:15] Toru
    I have a suggestion, though.
[06:17] Toru
    You guys help me.
[06:19] Vivi
    What?!
[06:20] Zita
    Help you?
[06:21] Toru
    I'm looking for Chaika and my other friends.
[06:23] Toru
    Once we're all together,
    we'll get you guys out of here.
[06:27] Vivi
    Do you even realize the position you're—
[06:29] Zita
    Vivi, I don't think there's any other way.
[06:36] Zita
    We understand. We'll help you.
[06:41] Zita
    So, do you have any idea
    where your friends are?
[06:45] Toru
    Since we fell all the way to the bottom,
[06:47] Toru
    there's only one way to go.
[06:51] Toru
    Up.
[06:55] Grad
    Ricardo-sama, everything is ready.
[06:58] Grad
    Give the order.
SIGN    Okay!
SIGN    Then, let's go!
SIGN    To create a new age!
SIGN    Our target is the capital of  the Wiemac Empire: Cadwell!
[07:18] Toru
    It's moving?
[07:20] Nikolai
    Hey! Where's it going?!
[07:23] Matheus
    That's the direction the
    punitive force is coming from.
[07:25] Nikolai
    Our only choice is to follow it!
[07:31] Chaika
    Toru...
[07:33] Layla
    Here.
[07:41] Layla
    The coffin princess, Chaika...
[07:43] Layla
    The princess without a nation, Chaika...
[07:47] Layla
    And gathering remains
[07:49] Layla
    is your only reason for living, correct?
[07:53] Chaika
    Layla?
[07:55] Layla
    You said you wish to give
    your father a funeral,
[07:58] Layla
    but are those truly your
    feelings toward your father?
[08:01] Layla
    Or are you just a creation,
    and that's what you want to believe?
[08:05] Chaika
    N-No!
[08:08] Layla
    Your joy, your sadness, your anger...
[08:12] Layla
    All to gather the remains?
[08:14] Layla
    Or were they just added to you
    later for consistency's sake?
[08:18] Layla
    To gather remains...
    And nothing else? Nothing?
[08:21] Chaika
    No!
[08:23] Layla
    You still don't know why you are alive,
[08:27] Layla
    why you were born.
[08:30] Layla
    When you find out,
[08:31] Layla
    you'll be able to feel despair
    from the depths of your heart.
[08:35] Toru
    But why would they cut the emissary
    into pieces and send them back?
[08:40] Toru
    Do they really want a war
    with the allied nations?
[08:42] Zita
    I don't know.
[08:43] Vivi
    They must enjoy killing. Just like you.
[08:46] Toru
    Isn't it assassins who specialize in killing?
[08:49] Vivi
    I didn't become an assassin
    because I wanted to!
[08:51] Toru
    Same here.
[08:53] Toru
    For me, killing is not a goal. It's a means.
[08:57] Toru
    Don't you have anyone you
    would take a life to protect?
[09:01] Vivi
    Mind your own business!
[09:04] Vivi
    What is it, Zita?
[09:06] Zita
    Wh-What is that?
SIGN    This is so exciting!
SIGN    To be honest, I never thought  this day would come.
[09:18] Grad
    I agree.
[09:19] Grad
    When the war ended, my new
    magic technique was useless.
[09:25] Grad
    If I hadn't met Layla, I'm sure I would
    have lost sight of where I belonged.
SIGN    Same goes for me.
SIGN    During the war,  death was part of the daily routine.
SIGN    Anybody could die at any time.
SIGN    I was free to kill or carve  up as many people as I wanted.
SIGN    Those days were like a dream...
SIGN    You and I are the same, Grad.
SIGN    It was Layla who brought us  together and made us realize
SIGN    that all we had to do was start another war.
[09:58] Layla
    This floating fortress is on its
    way to attack Cadwell, the capital.
[10:03] Layla
    That will be the signal to begin the war.
[10:06] Layla
    It seems we're going to plunge the
    world into the warring states era again.
[10:10] Layla
    That is the dream of
    Ricardo-sama and Grad-sama.
[10:14] Layla
    I am only supporting them from the shadows.
[10:17] Chaika
    L-Layla, who are you?
[10:19] Chaika
    Kidnapped, lie?
[10:22] Layla
    Yes, it was a lie.
[10:24] Layla
    I'm not one of the girls who were kidnapped.
[10:27] Layla
    The girls aren't here.
[10:29] Layla
    You condemn me for lying?
[10:31] Layla
    You, whose very existence
    is nothing but lies?
[10:34] Chaika
    Not lies!
[10:35] Layla
    It is a lie.
[10:37] Layla
    Your feelings and emotions,
[10:39] Layla
    and the idea that you are
    Emperor Gaz's daughter.
[10:41] Chaika
    No! No!
[10:43] Layla
    You don't want to believe it, do you?
[10:45] Layla
    I didn't, either.
[10:53] Layla
    But I know.
[10:55] Layla
    Because I am Chaika, as well.
[11:07] Toru
    The girls who were kidnapped...
[11:10] Toru
    How many of them are in here?
[11:13] Girl
    Help...
[11:15] Toru
    Hey! What happened? Who did this to you?
[11:18] Zita
    Hang in there! We're going to help you!
[11:20] Girl
    Ricardo Gavarni... killed them all...
[11:26] Girl
    I want to... go... home...
[11:34] Vivi
    Ricardo... I think that's
    Duke Gavarni's youngest son.
[11:39] Toru
    But what is he trying to do?
[11:42] Zita
    It's most likely for magic fuel.
[11:45] Toru
    All this?
[11:46] Zita
    The source of magic is the accumulated
    memories of living things.
[11:50] Zita
    Human corpses are a more
    than sufficient source.
[11:54] Zita
    The denser the memories,
    the better its quality...
[11:58] Zita
    Intense pain, agony, and fear are
    easily etched deep in our memories...
[12:03] Zita
    All the more so in sensitive young girls.
[12:06] Toru
    So that's why he took all those
    girls and did this to them?
[12:09] Toru
    No one sane could do that.
[12:11] Zita
    He shouldn't need that many magic sources
    just to power a floating fortress.
[12:16] Zita
    He has some other goal.
[12:18] Vivi
    Ricardo Gavarni and the
    wizard, Grad Lancia...
[12:21] Vivi
    It looks like those two are behind all this.
[12:25] Toru
    There's another one, a girl.
[12:26] Vivi
    A girl?
[12:27] Toru
    Yeah. She took Chaika.
[12:31] Toru
    Her name is Layla.
[12:33] Layla
    Is this your first time
    seeing another Chaika?
[12:36] Chaika
    F-Fake...
[12:38] Layla
    Sorry, but I'm real.
[12:41] Layla
    I'm the true Chaika Gaz.
[12:43] Chaika
    Real one, me!
[12:44] Layla
    Yes, as are you.
[12:47] Layla
    You're missing some of
    your memories, aren't you?
[12:50] Layla
    The human will can be controlled,
[12:52] Layla
    with drugs or magic.
[12:54] Layla
    Even memories can be fabricated.
[12:56] Layla
    So why do you believe
    you are the real Chaika?
[12:59] Layla
    If your memories of childhood connect you to
[13:02] ---
    who you are now, then why?
[13:04] Chaika
    I...
[13:05] Layla
    "Chaika" is
[13:07] Layla
    someone meant to gather
    Emperor Gaz's remains.
[13:10] Layla
    You were only given the title of
    "princess" to make that possible.
[13:15] Layla
    Who do you think gave you that title?
[13:18] Chaika
    Gave?
[13:20] Layla
    Was it God?
[13:21] Layla
    Or...
[13:25] Chaika
    No! No!
[13:26] Chaika
    Fake! Joke!
[13:29] Layla
    Like you, I awakened as "Chaika" one day,
[13:33] Layla
    though I have forgotten
    what caused it to happen.
[13:37] Layla
    Violent emotions raged within me,
[13:41] Layla
    and I started to walk...
[13:43] Layla
    focused solely on the goal
    of gathering his remains.
[13:48] Layla
    In my case, I seemed to have
    a talent for mixing drugs.
[13:52] Layla
    I used aphrodisiacs to make men
    my allies, one after another.
[13:56] Layla
    But then, one day, I learned the truth...
[14:01] (Flashback) Kraken
    The taboo emperor, Arthur Gaz...
[14:04] (Flashback) Kraken
    His daughter shall be his successor,
[14:08] (Flashback) Kraken
    as well as the one to bear
    the burden of destiny.
[14:12] (Flashback) Layla
    Destiny?
[14:14] (Flashback) Kraken
    The existence of Chaika
    is merely the beginning.
[14:18] (Flashback) Kraken
    A destiny surpassing the imagination
    of all men lies ahead.
[14:23] (Flashback) Kraken
    You are no more than a tool
    to set that destiny in motion.
[14:29] (Flashback) Layla
    A tool?
[14:30] (Flashback) Kraken
    Your body and soul exist
    only to fulfill a purpose.
[14:33] (Flashback) Kraken
    Your worries, your fears,
    and your sorrow, as well.
[14:37] (Flashback) Layla
    No! That's not true!
[14:39] (Flashback) Layla
    I'm not a tool—
[14:52] (Flashback) Layla
    That is... the truth?
[14:59] Layla
    We are all merely tools
    to gather his remains...
[15:02] Layla
    The Chaikas, as well as those who help us.
[15:05] Layla
    The saboteur, in your case.
[15:07] Chaika
    Toru, not tool!
[15:09] Layla
    You are kind...
[15:10] Layla
    But that's just another of
    your qualities as a tool.
[15:14] Layla
    You must be the type that acts
    like a fragile young girl
[15:17] Layla
    to win people's sympathy and get
    them to help you gather the remains.
[15:20] Layla
    You're very good.
[15:22] Layla
    Some are warlike, others calculating...
[15:26] Layla
    And adding in skills like magic,
     combat, and chemistry
[15:32] Layla
    makes it possible to have Chaikas gather
    remains from various perspectives.
[15:37] Layla
    It is logical... Logical and cruel.
[15:41] Layla
    When I learned that,
    I chose to stop being Chaika.
[15:50] Toru
    Run!
[15:52] Vivi
    Why are you guys fighting among yourselves?!
[15:55] Toru
    That's what I want to know!
[15:57] Zita
    It's just a guess,
[15:58] ---
    but do you think her will is
    being controlled by magic?
[16:02] Toru
    By magic?
[16:03] Zita
    It's possible to make people
    less aware using drugs.
[16:06] Zita
    I suspect the other soldiers are
    being manipulated in the same way.
[16:10] Toru
    Drugs...
[16:13] Layla
    When I saw you come in here,
    I felt it was destiny.
[16:18] Layla
    I wanted to know how
[16:19] ---
    a Chaika would face the despair
    of learning the truth.
[16:33] Fredrica
    Aww... I wanted to hear a little more.
[16:37] Layla
    A dragoon?
[16:38] Chaika
    Fredrica! Safe?!
[16:40] Fredrica
    Yep.
[16:40] Fredrica
    Hey, you...
[16:42] Fredrica
    Where are the remains?
[16:44] Fredrica
    Would you hand them over now?
[16:46] Layla
    I'm sorry. Those are not for you.
[16:54] Chaika
    Fredrica!
[16:56] Chaika
    Fredrica!
[17:02] Layla
    A dragoon's weakness is its brain, correct?
[17:06] Chaika
    Why?
[17:07] Chaika
    Stopped being Chaika...
[17:09] Chaika
    So why not give up remains?
[17:12] Layla
    I use the remains as magic fuel,
[17:17] Layla
    until none is left.
[17:18] Layla
    All to fulfill the goal of
    Ricardo-sama and Grad-sama.
[17:22] Layla
    That is my revenge on the ones
    who orchestrated all this.
[17:29] Guy
    As I thought, a few have come into
    the fray with unexpected actions.
[17:34] Guy
    I guess there are pros and
    cons to ensuring diversity...
[17:37] Zita
    Um, T-Toru-san...
[17:41] Zita
    Pardon me...
[17:43] Toru
    Please, just hurry up!
[17:48] Vivi
    Looks like we can get through
    here without being seen.
[17:51] Toru
    Okay, let's go.
[17:57] Gillette
    So that's it?
[18:05] Soldier
    Halt!
[18:08] Gillette
    I know you are the punitive
    force against Duke Gavarni!
[18:12] Gillette
    I am a cavalier of the Wiemac Empire,
[18:14] Gillette
    Albéric Gillette of the
    Kliemann Organization.
[18:18] Gillette
    I bring vital information
    concerning this punitive mission.
[18:21] Gillette
    I wish to speak with your commander!
[18:25] Setra
    Lower your swords!
[18:27] Setra
    I am the cavalier Theobald Setra,
[18:30] Setra
    captain of the first vanguard
    unit of the punitive force.
[18:33] Setra
    You said you are Sir Gillette
    of the Kliemann Organization?
[18:36] Gillette
    Yes. I bring vital information
    concerning this punitive—
[18:41] Setra
    What business does the Postwar
    Restoration Agency have here?
[18:44] Gillette
    Part of restoration is preventing
    war from arising again.
[18:47] Gillette
    It is necessary to avoid
[18:49] ---
    militaristic conflict and reach a
    solution through reasonable means...
[18:51] Setra
    Laughable!
[18:53] Setra
    This punitive mission has been
    sanctioned by His Majesty the King.
[18:57] Setra
    You have no say in this battle.
[18:59] Gillette
    But—
[19:00] Setra
    Above all, this is merely a subjugation of
[19:03] ---
    a domain lord who is planning a rebellion,
[19:05] Setra
    not a war between nations.
[19:07] Setra
    Stand aside!
[19:08] Gillette
    Two of my subordinates
[19:10] Gillette
    are inside that fortress
    on a reconnaissance mission.
[19:13] Gillette
    Please, at least delay your
    attack until they have escaped!
[19:16] Setra
    You ask an entire army to stop its advance,
[19:20] Setra
    only to save the lives of a spy or two?
[19:24] Setra
    If you continue to impede us,
[19:26] Setra
    I will be forced to eliminate you as
    a traitor to His Majesty the King.
[19:29] Gillette
    But...
[19:31] Leonardo
    Gillette-sama...
[19:32] Setra
    Stand aside,
[19:34] Setra
    Cavalier Albéric Gillette!
[19:42] Toru
    Wait.
[19:46] TOru
    Get back! Run!
[19:54] Vivi
    Ouch...
[19:57] Toru
    Damn! They were keeping a
    guard dog like that here?
[20:00] Zita
    Looks like a manmade creation
    born of a magic experiment.
[20:05] Zita
    Come, that which pierces!
[20:09] Toru
    We can't take the ventilation
    ducts or the stairs?
[20:12] Toru
    That leaves...
[20:15] Zita
    This is dangerous! Please stop!
[20:18] Toru
    I've had training in wall climbing.
[20:21] Toru
    You guys wait here.
[20:22] Vivi
    We can't trust you to—
[20:33] Vivi
    Why...
[20:34] Toru
    We're even now, right?
[20:37] Vivi
    You're not like a saboteur at all.
[20:43] Vivi
    We'll take her on.
[20:45] Vivi
    We can't have you holding back.
[20:47] Toru
    Are you stupid? I wouldn't...
[20:49] Vivi
    Just start climbing!
[20:50] Zita
    Leave this to us.
[20:53] Toru
    Thanks. Take care of my sister.
[20:55] Zita
    Right!
[21:02] Setra
    Stand aside! Can you not hear me?!
[21:05] Gillette
    Sir Setra, you won't delay
    your attack, no matter what?
[21:09] Setra
    You're wasting our time!
[21:11] ---
    What if we lose the opportunity to strike?
[21:14] Gillette
    You want war that badly?
[21:17] Gillette
    I...
[21:20] Gillette
    I...
[21:24] Setra
