[00:05] Gi
    This may sound sudden,
[00:06] Gi
    but the world was destroyed a long time ago.
[00:17] Gi
    One day, the Earth suddenly
    reached the end of its life.
[00:21] Gi
    It seemed as if humanity had
    no choice but to die along with it,
[00:27] Gi
    until a single clocksmith appeared.
[00:30] Gi
    He called himself "Y."
[00:33] Gi
    And he said that he could recreate the
    destroyed Earth with nothing but gears.
[00:39] Gi
    A thousand years passed...

    They'll be here in nine seconds.
[00:58] N
    Two silent helicopters,
[01:00] N
    and one transport helicopter,
[01:01] N
    loaded with 12 combat automata.
[01:05] N
    Three, two, one... zero!
[01:27] N
    Enemy reinforcements from the southeast.
[01:29] N
    Twelve seconds.
[01:31] N
    Clean these guys up before then, Marie.
[01:34] M
    Who said you could boss me around, Naoto?
[01:37] Gu
    Wasn't this your idea, Princess?
[01:40] M
    Stay out of this.
[01:42] M
    You're just my bodyguard!
[01:46] M
    Oh, my...
[01:54] M
    This is...
[01:56] M
    slightly bad.
[01:58] Gu
    So, what's the plan?
[02:01] N
    What do we do?
[02:03] N
    This is the end.
[02:04] N
    Right, RyuZU?
[02:06] R
    Indeed, Master Naoto.
[02:08] R
    If trying to take out my master with these
    crude machines is someone's idea of a joke,
[02:13] R
    it isn't the least bit funny.
[02:17] R
    Now, become humorless pieces of scrap,
[02:21] R
    and vanish from my master's sight.
[02:42] R
    Sorry to keep you waiting, Master Naoto.
[02:52] N
    That was some top-class RyuZUing, RyuZU!
[02:55] R
    That was an extremely low-class sentence,
[02:59] R
    indicative of your own lack
    of quality and education.
[03:05] R
    Y called this planet, formed from an
    almost infinite number of gears,

    the Clockwork Planet.

    I'm back!
[05:23] N
    Were you lonely, everyone?
[05:26] N
    I know!
[05:28] N
    Please, forgive me for being such a failure
[05:33] N
    that I couldn't even fix a single clock!
[05:35] N
    But I want you to believe that
    my love for you is real!
[05:42] N
    I'll be a clocksmith who can fix you!
[05:49] N
    I'm sorry.

    You have the right to choose, too, don't you?

    Hey, hey, hey!

    What are you doing?

    Damn it!

    What the hell?
[07:20] N
    She's pretty...
[07:23] M
    You dropped a YD-01 container?
[07:26] Gu
    I-I'm sorry!
[07:29] M
    That belongs to the Breguet family,

    and is a national treasure-class automaton.
[07:34] Gu
    The person responsible will
    be punished immediately!

    Halter, send out our own

[07:49] M
    We can't leave it to those

    Roger.
[07:54] Gu
    But, Meister Marie, a lady needs
    to behave more ladylike.
[07:58] ---
    What?!
[07:59] Gu
    Especially since this is an official request for aid
[08:02] Gu
    from the Kyoto Grid to the Meister Guild.
[08:05] M
    They're just saying,
    "We can't handle it anymore,
[08:08] M
    so save us!" and making us deal with it.
[08:11] M
    But still, we can't ignore
    problems with the Core Tower.
[08:16] M
    Hurry there.
[08:18] Gu
    As you wish, Princess.
[08:27] M
    This looks like it's
    gonna be a fun job, huh?
[08:33] N
    This is... my ideals personified.
[08:38] N
    No, more than that.
[08:44] N
    Wow...
[08:46] N
    The sound of the gears is more perfect
    than anything I've ever heard.
[08:53] N
    No... wait.
[08:57] N
    It's faint, but there's an
    unpleasant noise mixed in.
[09:01] N
    The gear at the very center is stuck.
[09:06] N
    Is that why she's not booting up,
    even though the power spring is functional?
[09:12] N
    Seriously?
[09:14] N
    I've got two to three hours
    before it collapses.
[09:34] N
    Wow...
[09:37] N
    So pretty...
[09:40] N
    I can't even fix a clock...
[09:44] N
    So what am I trying to do here?
[09:52] M
    Meister Konrad!
[09:54] Gu
    It's been a while, Meister Marie.
SIGN    16:55 Kyoto Core Tower Floor 3
[09:57] M
    Thank you so much for being
    our service chief this time.
[10:02] Gu
    They're with the military, huh?
[10:04] M
    They're here to tell us to stay
    off their turf already, huh?
[10:07] Gu
    Dr. Breguet?
[10:09] Gu
    We were ordered to give you
    as much help as possible.
[10:12] M
    That's fine.
[10:13] M
    Please leave.
[10:14] Gu
    We know this place better than anyone.
[10:17] Gu
    Do you think you can fix
    it without our help—
[10:20] M
    We were called here because
    you couldn't handle it.
[10:25] M
    Get lost, amateurs.
[10:33] N
    This is crazy.
[10:36] N
    If my hand slips and I put even the
    slightest scratch on the main cylinder,
[10:40] N
    it'll be irreparable.
[10:44] N
    But I don't like this sound...
[11:08] N
    I see!
[11:09] N
    If I can reach this point...
[11:40] N
    W-Wow!
[11:42] N
    This is great!
[11:47] N
    My head feels like it's gonna burst...
[11:49] N
    I can't move.
[12:25] R
    I am Unit 1 of the
    Initial-Y series, RyuZU.
[12:31] N
    Naoto Miura.
[12:34] R
    I am deeply grateful to
    you for repairing me.
[12:40] R
    Still, if it took this long to
    repair such a simple malfunction,
[12:43] R
    that implies that humanity's intelligence
[12:47] R
    has yet to surpass the
    level of a flea, doesn't it?
[12:52] R
    I would hope that
[12:54] R
    the person who is to be my master
    is at least superior to an insect.
[13:05] N
    No, my head hurts...
[13:18] R
    Are you awake, Master Naoto?
[13:30] R
    Master Naoto, I have a question.
[13:33] N
    S-Sure...
[13:35] R
    Do you have my design plans?
[13:37] N
    No...
[13:39] R
    Then how many gears is my body comprised of?
[13:43] N
    Um, 4,207,600,008,643... I think?
[13:49] R
    Then you really were able to comprehend
    and repair me just by the sound?
[13:54] N
    Were you able to sense
    me during the repairs?
[13:57] R
    Yes.
[13:58] R
    The whole time.
[14:00] N
    Sorry for opening you up like that!
[14:01] N
    But that gear was ruining
    that really nice sound...
[14:06] R
    Master Naoto, you are a pervert.
[14:10] N
    Yes. I'm sorry.
[14:13] R
    Then, will you allow me to officially
    register you as my master,
[14:18] R
    and serve by your side?
[14:22] N
    Huh?
[14:23] R
    I have come to the conclusion
[14:25] R
    that you are currently the most
    talented clocksmith on this planet.
[14:28] N
    No, no, no!
[14:29] N
    That's impossible!
[14:31] R
    Is there some kind of problem?
[14:34] R
    Does my perfection and
    overwhelming capabilities
[14:37] R
    damage your mitochondrian-level pride?
[14:42] N
    No, that's not it...
[14:47] R
    I see.
[14:49] R
    I'm not needed, am I?
[14:55] N
    Come on, calm down, Naoto Miura.
[14:58] N
    Who is this girl, anyway?

[16:23] M
    It's weirdly quiet, huh?
[16:25] K
    What is it?
[16:26] M
    The military people in charge here
    have been staying away since then.
[16:30] K
    You think they're planning something?
[16:32] K
    I have the perfect man for
    situations like this.

[16:37] Ka
    What can I do for you?
[16:39] K
    Can you look and see if the
    military's hiding anything here?
[16:43] Ka
    I had enough of shady business
    like that at my last job.
[16:47] M
    Can you help?
[16:50] Ka
    I can't turn down a request
    from Meister Marie.
[16:55] N
    You saved me.
[16:57] N
    If you hadn't gone to get my
    things, I'd be penniless.
[17:01] N
    But I'm sorry to make you
    go someplace dangerous.
[17:05] R
    Unlike your frail and weak self, Master Naoto,
[17:08] R
    I am capable and versatile.
[17:10] R
    How was I in danger?
[17:12] N
    I've been wondering...
[17:13] N
    Are you supposed to be so sharp-tongued?
[17:16] R
    Sharp-tongued?
[17:17] R
    Me?
[17:18] N
    You don't even realize it...
[17:21] R
    Now then, Master Naoto,
[17:23] R
    how about we stay there for the night?
[17:30] N
    That's a love hotel!
[17:32] R
    Yes. It's the most reasonably priced hotel,
[17:35] R
    and the one most well-equipped
    with amenities in the area.
[17:38] N
    B-But...
[17:39] R
    In addition, no matter how indecent
    and unusual your desires,
[17:45] R
    it is my job as your servant
    to accept them all.
[17:48] N
    What do you think I am?
[17:51] N
    No! No! No!
[17:53] N
    Anyway, tonight we can go to
    a manga cafe or something.
[17:56] Gu
    Hey, you're really pretty!
[17:59] R
    Yes, I'm aware.
[18:02] Gu
    Good stuff.
[18:03] Gu
    Want to go have some fun?
[18:05] Gu
    We can go right over there.
[18:12] Gu
    Ow.
[18:13] Gu
    What are you doing?
[18:16] N
    Shut up!
[18:17] N
    She's not someone people like you can touch!

    What did you say, you stupid brat?
[18:23] Gu
    Do you want to die?
[18:24] Gu
    You bastard!
[18:25] N
    RyuZU, run!
[18:29] R
    This is the first time you
    called me RyuZU, isn't it?
[18:33] R
    I will now enhance your
    knowledge, Master Naoto.
[18:43] R
    Did I go a little too far?
[18:46] R
    I was rather upset at the way
    you treated Master Naoto.
[18:57] R
    I see.
[18:58] R
    Instead of the big bed in a love hotel,
[19:00] R
    you wanted to get close to
    me in a narrow seat, huh?
[19:03] N
    No!
[19:05] N
    This is the only place that was open!
[19:08] N
    I'm just tired...
[19:11] N
    You get some rest, too, RyuZU.
[19:12] N
    Thanks for everything today.
[19:19] R
    Are you going to ignore it?
[19:21] ---
    What?
[19:21] R
    Are you going to ignore the
    opportunity to sleep on my lap?
[19:25] N
    But... can I?
[19:27] R
    Were you dissatisfied with my
    lap back there on the bench?
[19:30] N
    Not at all!

    I am an automaton.

    A clockwork doll.
[19:45] N
    Yeah.
[19:47] N
    That's right.
[19:48] R
    So why are you treating
    me like a human girl?
[20:00] R
    What does Master Naoto think about me?

    What?

    At least put something on down there.
[20:49] M
    You dummy!
[20:53] M
    We just experienced a gravity
    irregularity, didn't we?
[20:55] Gu
    I'm amazed you could tell.
[20:58] Gu
    It didn't shake enough that your
    body should be able to sense it.
[21:01] M
    But if it continues...
[21:05] M
    It could cause the entire Kyoto Grid to fall.
[21:09] M
    There's no time to waste.
[21:11] M
    We need to find the point that's
    causing the problem now!

    It would seem that the military
    has chosen a different method.
