SIGN    Sprocket Calendar January 12th, 1016 22:38 Kyoto Grid
[00:08] Mar
    Quick!
[00:09] Mar
    We have to do everything
    we can to stop the purge!
SIGN    Kyoto Core Tower Floor 24
[00:11] nao
    Quick!
[00:12] nao
    We need to do everything we can
    to get our hands on AnchoR!
[00:14] mar
    You are so...
[00:18] hal
    Oh? That's it?
[00:20] mar
    Even the time to get mad is too precious.
[00:23] mar
    Hey, did you notice?
[00:25] hal
    Not a single soul until now.
[00:27] hal
    Do you think the army took them?
[00:30] mar
    That's fine, too, as long as they are safe.
[00:34] nao
    Huh? There are people behind that gate.
[00:47] hal
    Hey, guys.
[00:51] mar
    You guys!
[00:52] kon
    Oh! I'm so relieved that you are safe.
[00:55] mar
    Why haven't you evacuated?!
[00:58] kon
    Meister Marie, nobody here is so unreliable
    as to leave unfinished work behind.
[01:06] mar
    Jeez, you guys.
[01:10] mar
    Another anomaly.
[01:13] kon
    Do you have any leads?
[01:14] mar
    Of course! I have the
    ultimate ace up my sleeve!
[01:18] mar
    Naoto!
[01:19] nao
    Beautiful!
[01:23] nao
    This is too much!
[01:24] nao
    I've never seen anything like this!
[01:26] kon
    Who might that be?
[01:28] mar
    Naoto!
SIGN    Episode 4 Imaginary Gear
[03:01] nao
    Oh, this is so beautiful.
[03:06] nao
    Who is the person who designed
    something this pretty, this attractive,
[03:11] nao
    this exciting, and built it to perfection?
[03:14] nao
    Thank you so much!
[03:15] mar
    That idiot.
[03:17] ryu
    Master Naoto, I believe that is not what you
    should be concerned with at the moment.
[03:22] mar
    Yeah, tell him!
[03:23] mar
    I simply cannot ignore that
    you are giving this stinky,
[03:27] mar
    mold-covered antique more praise than me.
[03:30] mar
    That's not the issue, either!
[03:31] ryu
    After you looked at my entire body,
[03:34] ryu
    you told me that I was pretty,
    that I was the best.
[03:38] ryu
    Were those words just a lie, then?
[03:40] nao
    No, that's not it! You are the best, RyuZU!
[03:44] nao
    But you know, these gears
    here are also amazing.
[03:48] nao
    So... you know?
[03:51] ryu
    I see. As long as there are gears,
    you don't care who it is.
[03:55] nao
    Um, listen.
[03:57] nao
    Your gears are really the best.
[03:58] ryu
    I see, you're telling me to strip.
[04:01] nao
    I did not say that! I did not say that!
[04:03] nao
    No, don't do it RyuZU!
[04:04] mar
    Cut it out already, you idiot!
[04:08] nao
    What was that for?!
[04:10] mar
    What did you think you were
    coming all the way here for?!
[04:13] ryu
    I guess even a meister only—
[04:14] kon
    I see,
[04:16] kon
    that boy got that Initial-Y series unit.
[04:22] mar
    Well, let me introduce him to you properly.
[04:25] mar
    This is Naoto Miura.
[04:27] mar
    I'm sure you all have doubts, but we
    need his help to repair the Core Tower.
[04:37] nao
    Um, I'm getting all these unfriendly looks.
[04:40] mar
    As you suspect, he is an idiot.
[04:43] nao
    Hey.
[04:44] mar
    But he's the idiot we need right now.
[04:46] mar
    He's the only hope we have.
[04:51] kon
    Three hours and 57 minutes until the purge.
[04:56] kon
    No matter if this boy is the real deal or
    not, let's follow Meister Marie's lead.
[05:02] hann
    Understood.
[05:03] mar
    Thank you!
[05:05] mar
    Naoto!
[05:07] nao
    I know.
[05:32] ryu
    I will hold that.
[05:34] nao
    Thanks.
[05:58] nao
    That's one.
[06:04] nao
    Two.
[06:07] nao
    Three.
[06:16] han
    What in the world is he doing?
[06:18] mar
    Quiet.
[06:24] ryu
    Good work, Master Naoto.
[06:27] ryu
    Uh-huh. Thanks.
[06:32] mar
    What did you find?
[06:33] nao
    Eighteen places.
[06:35] mar
    That's not very many.
[06:37] nao
    There are 4047 irregularities,
    but those are the only ones
[06:41] nao
    that are connected to the gravity anomaly.
[06:45] mar
    That sounds doable, then.
[06:47] mar
    Tell me where they are.
[06:49] nao
    I can't read that.
[06:51] mar
    Just give me a rough idea.
[06:52] mar
    I'll figure out the rest.
[06:55] kon
    Then, let's begin.
[06:57] kon
    Meister Marie, please direct us.
[07:00] mar
    Meister Konrad, please take care of the
    12 problems up to level 3 with your team.
[07:05] all
    Aye!
[07:06] mar
    Since we don't have time, please skip the
    inspection and do the repairs directly.
[07:10] mar
    Halter, bring materials and follow me.
[07:12] hal
    Roger.
[07:20] han
    There really is a problem here!
[07:23] han
    How did a boy who can't even
    read blueprints find this?
[07:31] mass
    Okay, done here!
[07:35] guy
    Here, too.
[07:36] guy
    And here!
[07:37] tou
    I'm done!
[07:38] han
    Done here, as well!
[07:43] kon
    I see.
[07:45] mar
    The last place is in a place where a
    human can't get to. RyuZU, please go.
[07:51] ryu
    The only one who can give
    me orders is Master Naoto.
[07:53] nao
    Please, RyuZU.
[07:56] ryu
    Understood.
[07:59] (Flashback) mar
    From your location, jump up 52.3 meters.
[08:03] (Flashback) mar
    Rotate 47.5 degrees horizontally,
    then jump another 14.25 meters.
[08:11] (Flashback) mar
    After you arrive, there will be a loose
    gear with a diameter of 0.7 micrometers.
[08:16] ryu
    This must be it.
[08:17] (Flashback) mar
    Please fix that without
    stopping it from turning.
[08:21] (Flashback) mar
    I hate to admit it, but you're
    the only one who can do this.
[08:27] ryu
    It's done.
[08:30] nao
    Am I considered material?
[08:33] haL
    Very delicate material.
[08:34] haL
    I'll handle you with care.
[08:39] nao
    Marie, it's that movement up there.
[08:42] mar
    The fourth from the right edge, correct?
[08:44] nao
    Yeah, but we need to find a platform first.
[08:47] mar
    We don't have time for that.
[08:49] nao
    Hey, what are you...
[08:51] hal
    Just watch.
[09:07] nao
    Amazing.
[09:14] mar
    All right, let's move to the next one.
[09:18] hal
    Isn't our princess amazing?
[09:21] nao
    Yeah.
[09:23] hal
    In that little head of hers, she has every
    single defect and repair method stored.
[09:29] hal
    She can consult that immense amount of data
[09:32] hal
    and figure out the best course
    of action in an instant.
[09:36] hal
    That is Marie Bell Breguet.
[09:41] hal
    So she's a genius, just like you.
[09:59] mar
    That was the last one.
[10:03] nao
    You're too much.
[10:06] hann
    The Brown's constant of Floor 24's
    pressure control block is normal.
[10:12] nao
    The dissonance is gone.
[10:16] mar
    Observation team leader!
[10:17] han
    All checks are green.
[10:21] mar
    That means.
[10:24] han
    I can't believe it.
[10:27] han
    All repairs were successful!
[10:33] tou
    This is unreal. We really did it!
[10:36] mas
    Are we dreaming?
[10:38] guy
    Damn, we did it!
[10:42] han
    Sorry for doubting you.
[10:44] han
    This is all thanks to you!
[10:46] nao
    Huh? But I didn't do anything.
[10:49] mar
    What are you talking about?
[10:50] mar
    If we don't know what's
    broken, we can't fix it.
[10:54] kon
    You managed to do what we
    were unable to do for days.
[11:01] nao
    So I was useful?
[11:06] kon
    You saved the lives of 20 million people.
[11:16] nao
    Uh...
[11:18] nao
    Um...
[11:21] nao
    Okay.
[11:29] ---
    What the?
[11:30] ---
    What's going on?
[11:32] nao
    What the heck is happening?!
[11:33] mar
    What is this?!
[11:35] han
    The purge.
[11:37] han
    The purge has begun!
[11:44] mar
    You've got to be shitting me!
SIGN    Kyoto "Military" Headquarters
[11:56] opA
    Coupling shaft disengaged.
[11:57] opB
    Shaft number 52939,
    confirmed as disengaged.
[12:01] rim
    Why are you wasting time?
[12:03] rim
    Hurry up and commence the purge!
[12:05] rim
    We can't leave any evidence behind.
[12:08] rim
    Hurry up already!
[12:14] mar
    The purge is going to use
    the gravity control system
[12:16] mar
    to drop this city into
    the core of the planet.
[12:20] mar
    What can we do to stop this purge?
[12:24] mar
    Do we get access to the system directly?
[12:26] kon
    We don't have enough time for that.
[12:28] hal
    Do we inform the public
    of the military's actions?
[12:31] klon
    That would just add confusion
    to the situation.
[12:35] mar
    Isn't there any other way?
[12:39] mar
    Something? Something else?
[12:44] ryu
    Is something the matter?
[12:46] nao
    Oh, no.
[12:49] nao
    It's nothing.
[12:51] ryu
    I see.
[12:58] mar
    Another hour. No, even 30 minutes would do.
[13:02] mar
    If we could prevent the city from falling...
[13:08] mar
    Imaginary Gear!
[13:09] nao
    No!
[13:11] mar
    Naoto.
[13:26] mar
    In order to prevent the city from falling,
    we need to generate anti-gravity.
[13:30] mar
    The only way of doing that is to use
[13:33] mar
    the Imaginary Gear, which can
    reverse the energy output.
[13:37] nao
    Are you telling me to
    sacrifice RyuZU for that?!
[13:39] mar
    I just want to borrow her temporarily!
[13:41] nao
    You can't guarantee that she will be safe!
[13:43] mar
    Trust me! I will repair her!
[13:45] nao
    No! No way!
[13:51] ryu
    Master, I swear that I will honor
    my title of "One who follows" and
[13:55] ryu
    keep you safe, no matter how
    dangerous the situation may be.
[14:00] ryu
    However, foolish Master Naoto,
[14:05] ryu
    you're not so foolish as to smile even
    after sacrificing someone, are you?
[14:13] mar
    Listen to my entire plan!
[14:15] nao
    There is no need for RyuZU to be sacrificed!
[14:19] ryu
    Master Naoto, I am certain you can do it.
[15:23] nao
    Marie, please tell me.
[15:26] nao
    What should I do?

[15:55] rim
    What's the matter?
[15:56] guy
    The gravity... has been reversed.
[16:00] guy
    Someone is pushing the city back up!
[16:04] rim
    How?!
[16:06] han
    Hurry! We need to reconfigure the system!
[16:09] all
    Right!
SIGN    Kyoto Core Tower Floor 24 Gravity Control System
[16:13] nao
    What do you think?
[16:14] mar
    Thirty minutes.
[16:16] mar
    Longer than that and the
    Imaginary Gear won't last.
[16:20] nao
    RyuZU.
[16:21] mar
    Don't worry. Thirty minutes
    is more than enough.
[16:26] nao
    What is it?
[16:27] nao
    A lot of sounds are approaching.
[16:30] nao
    I've heard these before.
[16:34] rim
    Kill them!
[16:36] rim
    Kill anyone who gets in
    the way of the purge!
[16:40] mar
    Seriously, now?!
[16:42] hal
    I just need to buy you some time, right?
[16:44] hal
    That kind of job is more suited for me.
[16:56] kon
    Mind if I join in?
[16:58] hal"
    Are you sure?
[16:59] kon
    This seems more fun.
[17:02] hal
    Hah, for sure.
[17:07] hal
    This is good. There's no need to aim.
[17:11] kon
    Quite true.
[17:12] kon
    Then let's ring the bell, shall we?
[17:18] hal
    Whoa, now.
[17:20] kon
    Don't worry, I will repair it later.
[17:23] hal
    You've got guts!
[17:32] mar
    Naoto. Naoto. Naoto!
[17:37] ---
    You need to focus, Naoto.
[17:40] nao
    I know. I know, but...
[17:44] mar
    We're going to save everything, right?
[18:01] nao
    Oh, yeah.
[18:04] nao
    That's right.
[18:05] mar
    Next?
[18:06] nao
    Rotate the fifth cylinder
    34 degrees to the right.

    We're losing more and more control.
[18:16] rim
    My plan!
[18:35] nao
    Marie, aren't you done yet?!
[18:36] mar
    Just a little!
[18:42] nao
    She's at her limit.
[18:46] nao
    Marie!
[18:55] han
    Meister Marie! We're in!
[18:57] nao
    RyuZU!
[19:04] mar
    Naoto!
[19:30] ryu
    It seems I must sleep again.
[19:34] ryu
    It can't be helped.
[19:36] ryu
    Even after 1,800,926 hours,
[19:43] ryu
    humanity's stupidity remained
    on par with that of fleas.
[19:47] ryu
    All I need to do is sleep again.
[19:50] ryu
    Nothing has changed.
[19:52] ryu
    Nothing.
[19:54] ryu
    And yet...
[19:59] ryu
    Why is it...
[20:01] ryu
    Why does my heart feel so tight?
[20:25] ryu
    Huh?
[20:28] ryu
    Ah, I see.
[20:32] ryu
    There is one thing that is different now.
[21:01] ryu
    Master Naoto, your face
    is already dull at best.
[21:05] ryu
    If you do that, nobody can look at you.
[21:17] ryu
    I believed.
[21:20] ryu
    No, perhaps I should say it was inevitable.
[21:24] ryu
    Just like there are no elements of
    coincidence in the 4,207,600,008,643 gears
[21:32] ryu
    that I am comprised of.
[21:37] ryu
