[00:01] Chief and Vice Chairman
    This is VIRM's will.
[00:03] Vice Chairman
    Star Entity is a mass of life that
    could disturb the universe's peace.
[00:10] Chief
    As such, if the klaxosaur princess
    took over the implanting process,
[00:14] Chief
    we programmed it to explode.
[00:17] Nine Alpha
    Papa?
[00:18] Vice Chairman
    The die has been cast.
[00:20] Chief
    This planet will explode,
    leaving nothing behind.
[00:25] Sage A
    What's going on?
[00:26] Sage C
    Who are you?
[00:28] Chief
    We have assimilated several lifeforms
    from all over the universe
[00:31] Chief
    and helped them break free of
    the shells of their bodies.
[00:35] Vice Chairman
    And the time has come for you
    humans to embrace your evolution.
[00:41] Sage C
    Wh-What?
[00:44] Chief and Vice Chairman
    There exists a form of pleasure
    that is gentle and perpetual,
[00:49] Chief and Vice Chairman
    and you will now experience it.
[00:58] Hiro (016)
    Damn!
[01:01] Hiro (016)
    Zero Two!
[01:16] Hiro (016)
    It's all or nothing.
[01:26] Hiro (016)
    What is this?
[01:27] Hiro (016)
    Just how long have you been alive?
[01:30] Hiro (016)
    You've been living all by yourself
    since before humans existed?
[01:44] Zero Two (002)
    Darling...
[01:56] Guard
    Command! Please come in, Command!
[02:00] Guard
    Papa!
[02:06] Futoshi (214)
    H-Hey! Who are we supposed to fight here?
[02:10] Zorome (666)
    The klaxosaurs, obviously!
    That's how it's always been!
[02:13] Ikuno (196)
    But she said the ones that came
    from the sky were invaders.
[02:17] Kokoro (556)
    It doesn't matter who the enemy is.
[02:20] Kokoro (556)
    All I can do is fight.
[02:24] Dr. Franxx
    Since the detonation stalled
    once Code 016 connected...
[02:30] Dr. Franxx
    It's a backdoor code?
[02:32] Hachi
    Backdoor code?
[02:33] Dr. Franxx
    It's targeting the Stampede Mode.
[02:35] Dr. Franxx
    They set it up so the mode's overload
    would cause an internal explosion.
[02:42] Dr. Franxx
    They got me.
[02:45] Dr. Franxx
    They got me good!
[02:47] Dr. Franxx
    If this thing blows,
    the planet will go with it.
[02:50] Hachi
    And Code 016 prevented that?
[02:53] Dr. Franxx
    All he's done is slow it down.
[02:56] Dr. Franxx
    As things stand, it will reach critical in...
[03:05] Zero Two (002)
    That's how much time
    my darling bought us, huh?
[03:09] Hachi
    Code 002?
[03:14] Miku (390)
    Uh, isn't it too dangerous to stay here?
[03:17] Zorome (666)
    What else are we supposed to do?
[03:20] Ichigo (015)
    Calm down. We should assume we won't
    get any more orders from above.
[03:24] Ichigo (015)
    We'll have to deal with this ourselves.
[03:26] Ikuno (196)
    Weren't they saying something
    strange in the last message?
[03:29] Goro (056)
    Yeah, about using Star Entity
    as a bomb or something.
[03:33] Mitsuru (326)
    They also said the whole planet would explode.
[03:36] Futoshi (214)
    Yeah, that wasn't normal.
[03:39] Zorome (666)
    What does that mean?
[03:40] Zorome (666)
    Wasn't that thing supposed
    to put an end to the war?
[03:47] Ichigo (015)
    We should go and see for ourselves.
[03:48] Ichigo (015)
    If the bomb thing is real, we don't
    have time to stand around.
[03:53] Goro (056)
    Yeah. I'm also worried
    about Hiro and Zero Two.
[03:56] Miku (390)
    Good point... Okay.
[03:59] Ichigo (015)
    We're heading back...
[04:00] Ichigo (015)
    to Gran Crevasse!
[04:08] 001
    It's no use.
[04:10] 001
    VIRM got me.
[04:13] 001
    We've lost.
[04:16] Hiro (016)
    And what is this "VIRM"?
[04:19] Hiro (016)
    Who are those guys that came from
    the sky, the ones you people fought?
[04:24] Hiro (016)
    When I connected with you, I felt it.
[04:27] Hiro (016)
    I felt the passing of an
    unbelievable amount of time.
[04:30] Hiro (016)
    When did it all begin?
[04:40] Zero Two (002)
    She called me a fake.
[04:45] Zero Two (002)
    What was that about?
[04:48] Dr. Franxx
    She is the sole survivor of the klaxo sapiens,
[04:53] Dr. Franxx
    and you are her clone.
[04:58] 001
    It has been more than
    sixty million years now.
[05:04] 001
    We inhabited this planet as a civilization
    far more advanced than yours.
[05:13] 001
    But one day, VIRM arrived.
[05:16] 001
    They were a group mind
    with no physical bodies,
[05:19] 001
    and they wanted us to join them.
[05:23] Hiro (016)
    Join them?
[05:24] 001
    They were telling us to
    cast aside our bodies.
[05:28] 001
    We refused, and war broke out.
[05:33] 001
    During that centuries-long war,
[05:36] 001
    we reforged ourselves into immortal weapons
[05:39] 001
    and evolved into what you
    people call klaxosaurs.
[05:43] 001
    By the time we finally fought off VIRM,
[05:46] 001
    fighting and warfare was all that
    remained of our civilization.
[05:51] 001
    We had even lost our ability to procreate.
[05:56] 001
    But things did not end there.
[06:00] 001
    The enemy we had fought off
    was but VIRM's vanguard.
[06:05] 001
    With no innate form,
[06:07] 001
    they keep expanding, adding the weapons of
    the planets they devour to their arsenal.
[06:11] Hiro (016)
    No...
[06:13] 001
    To prepare for VIRM's inevitable return,
[06:16] 001
    we went underground.
[06:18] 001
    The weak turned themselves into energy,
[06:22] 001
    and the strong combined to evolve
    into even stronger weapons.
[06:31] Dr. Franxx
    That's how the klaxo sapiens built
    Star Entity, a collective mass of klaxosaurs.
[06:38] Dr. Franxx
    Only a klaxo sapiens can operate it.
[06:41] Dr. Franxx
    The klaxosaur princess has probably lived
    millions of years for that very purpose.
[06:48] Dr. Franxx
    Zero Two, you were created to operate
    Star Entity on behalf of the human race.
[06:54] Dr. Franxx
    I created you from her DNA.
[06:58] 001
    Even if victory was impossible,
[07:00] 001
    I wanted to take down as
    many of them as I could.
[07:04] 001
    But this is the end.
[07:07] 001
    It's all over.
[07:10] Hiro (016)
    Is it really the end?
[07:14] Hiro (016)
    Is there really nothing more you can do?!
[07:18] 001
    That's right.
[07:23] Dr. Franxx
    Many specimens were born,
    but failed to survive.
[07:26] Dr. Franxx
    You were the only success.
[07:30] Dr. Franxx
    Eventually, with the idea of using
    them either as backups or stamens,
[07:35] Dr. Franxx
    I created clones using your cells, too.
[07:38] Dr. Franxx
    But they didn't inherit the klaxosaur blood.
[07:44] Zero Two (002)
    My... clones?
[07:49] Dr. Franxx
    The 9's.
[07:59] Ichigo (015)
    You guys...
[08:03] Nine Alpha
    Why are you here?
[08:05] Nine Alpha
    This isn't your post.
[08:08] Nine Beta
    Leaving your post without permission
    can be considered disobeying orders.
[08:11] Nine Gamma
    Return to your assignment
    and follow Papa's orders.
[08:15] Ikuno (196)
    That's meaningless at this point! The bomb—
[08:18] Nine Epsilon
    That isn't your call to make. It's Papa's.
[08:22] Ichigo (015)
    And we can't get in touch with him!
[08:25] Ichigo (015)
    We have to analyze the situation
    and make our own decisions!
[08:28] Nine Delta
    "Our own decisions"? Do you guys
    think you're special or something?
[08:32] Nine Delta
    Papa's words are absolute!
[08:39] Nine Alpha
    Damn monsters.
[08:40] Nine Alpha
    Kill every last one of them!
[08:55] Zorome (666)
    They're nuts.
[08:58] Goro (056)
    Ichigo! Now's our chance!
[09:00] Ichigo (015)
    Y-Yeah! Let's hurry!
[09:05] Mitsuru (326)
    Kokoro!
[09:08] Mitsuru (326)
    Let's go.
[09:09] Kokoro (556)
    Y-Yeah.
[09:12] Nine Delta
    What is with those guys?
[09:15] Nine Epsilon
    Delta! To your left!
[09:17] Nine Delta
    What?!
[09:20] Nine Alpha
    Delta!
[09:21] Nine Beta
    Upsilon!
[09:24] Nine Alpha
    Hang on, you two!
[09:26] Nine Gamma
    We'll get rid of them right away!
[09:28] Nine Delta
    No! I don't wanna die!
[09:31] Nine Delta
    H-Help me!
[09:40] Nine Alpha
    Screw you...
[09:43] Nine Alpha
    Screw you!
[09:53] Zero Two (002)
    Okay, I'm going.
[09:55] Hachi
    Going where?
[09:56] Zero Two (002)
    To bring my darling back.
[09:59] Hachi
    Don't push yourself.
[10:00] Zero Two (002)
    My darling's waiting for me.
[10:04] Dr. Franxx
    What can you do there?
[10:06] Dr. Franxx
    Star Entity is probably
    rigged with VIRM traps.
[10:11] Dr. Franxx
    Even if you took it back, you'd only
    end up falling into them.
[10:16] Zero Two (002)
    So what?
[10:18] Zero Two (002)
    The klaxosaur princess? VIRM?
[10:20] Zero Two (002)
    I don't care.
[10:22] Zero Two (002)
    I don't care if I'm a fake
    or a monster or whatever.
[10:26] Zero Two (002)
    My darling and I promised
    to be together forever,
[10:30] Zero Two (002)
    and that we'd go get the
    other if we were torn apart.
[10:35] Hachi
    But we learned that the door to the
    entry point only opens for Code 001.
[10:41] Dr. Franxx
    I'll go with her.
[10:43] Hachi
    Doctor?
[11:03] Zero Two (002)
    Guys...
[11:04] All
    Zero Two!
[11:11] Dr. Franxx
    016's connection has delayed
    their plans, if only briefly.
[11:17] Dr. Franxx
    He is most definitely an
    unknown factor to VIRM.
[11:22] Dr. Franxx
    The klaxosaur princess, 016, and you...
[11:26] Dr. Franxx
    The three of you together
    could create a miracle.
[11:29] Zero Two (002)
    Really?
[11:31] Dr. Franxx
    It's a highly optimistic view
    with no basis whatsoever.
[11:35] Dr. Franxx
    Some might call it blind hope.
[11:37] Zero Two (002)
    Still...
[11:39] Zero Two (002)
    It's much better than
    standing no chance at all.
[11:43] Miku (390)
    Jeez, they don't give up!
[11:47] Zorome (666)
    Now there's another!
[11:50] Goro (056)
    It's caved in!
[11:52] Mitsuru (326)
    No! We'll have to take a detour!
[11:54] Ichigo (015)
    There's not enough time!
[12:01] Ikuno (196)
    Get back, guys.
[12:02] Miku (390)
    What are you thinking, Ikuno?
[12:04] Ikuno (196)
    Futoshi! We're going to open up a path!
[12:07] Futoshi (214)
    Right on!
[12:08] Ichigo (015)
    Wait, Ikuno! If you do that...
[12:19] Ichigo (015)
    You okay?
[12:22] Futoshi (214)
    Ikuno!
[12:23] Futoshi (214)
    Your hair!
[12:25] Zorome (666)
    Damn it!
[12:26] Ikuno (196)
    Go, Ichigo!
[12:28] Ichigo (015)
    How could I?
[12:32] Kokoro (556)
    I'll stay behind.
[12:34] Kokoro (556)
    You all go ahead.
[12:35] Miku (390)
    Hell no!
[12:37] Miku (390)
    You're not throwing your life away!
    We're staying with you!
[12:40] Kokoro (556)
    Miku...
[12:42] Mitsuru (326)
    Kokoro.
[12:45] Mitsuru (326)
    I agree with them. We should
    fight together here.
[12:50] Zorome (666)
    Either way, we'll need manpower
    to hold these guys off.
[12:53] Miku (390)
    There you have it! Get going already!
[12:57] Goro (056)
    Ichigo...
[12:59] Ichigo (015)
    Got it.
[13:00] Ikuno (196)
    Get Hiro for us, Zero Two.
[13:03] Futoshi (214)
    After we save the world,
    let's have a big feast together!
[13:07] Futoshi (214)
    We'll make a bunch of your
    favorite sweet things, too!
[13:12] Zero Two (002)
    Sure.
[13:13] Ichigo (015)
    Take care of Chlorophytum!
[13:15] Ichigo (015)
    And don't you dare die!
[13:17] Goro (056)
    Let's go!
[13:21] Zorome (666)
    Welp, leader's orders.
[13:23] Zorome (666)
    Miku! We're gonna survive, no matter what!
[13:26] Miku (390)
    Of course!
[13:29] Mitsuru (326)
    Here they come!
[13:42] 001
    Why?
[13:43] 001
    Why do you still struggle?
[13:46] 001
    This battle was never yours to fight.
[13:50] Hiro (016)
    I was the same.
[13:53] Hiro (016)
    I was the same as you people.
[13:55] Hiro (016)
    I never doubted for a second that
    my purpose in life was to fight,
[13:59] Hiro (016)
    and I wasn't afraid to die.
[14:02] Hiro (016)
    But you know what I learned?
[14:04] Hiro (016)
    You don't call that living.
[14:06] Hiro (016)
    Meeting Zero Two helped me understand.
[14:09] Hiro (016)
    The time we spend crying, laughing,
    and falling in love is truly valuable,
[14:16] Hiro (016)
    and I realized I wanted to protect it all.
[14:21] Hiro (016)
    But if we march into death,
    we'll lose everything.
[14:24] Hiro (016)
    It'll all be gone.
[14:26] Hiro (016)
    And I'm not having that!
    I will never give up!
[14:30] Hiro (016)
    I promised her that I'd be with her forever!
[14:35] Hiro (016)
    I don't live to fight anymore.
[14:37] Hiro (016)
    I'm going to fight to live.
[14:54] Hachi
    Is that Hringhorni?
[14:57] Hachi
    Who's operating it?
[15:06] Nine Alpha
    Hey, Papa, say something...
[15:10] Nine Alpha
    What are we to do?
[15:14] Goro (056)
    Crap! It's going to catch up!
[15:15] Ichigo (015)
    How much farther, Zero Two?
[15:18] Zero Two (002)
    I see it!
[15:28] Zero Two (002)
    Over there!
SIGN    Star Entity Entry Point
[15:31] Goro (056)
    They keep coming.
[15:33] Goro (056)
    Go! Get Hiro for us!
[15:35] Ichigo (015)
    Both of you had better come back together.
[15:38] Ichigo (015)
    If either of you is missing,
    you'll have hell to pay!
[15:41] Zero Two (002)
    You two...
[15:44] Goro (056)
    You're not getting past!
[15:56] Goro (056)
    Damn it all!
[16:06] Zero Two (002)
    Ichigo! Goro!
[16:17] Dr. Franxx
    Dig in. It's your master's arm.
[16:27] Zero Two (002)
    Doctor?!
[16:29] Zero Two (002)
    Why?
[16:31] Dr. Franxx
    That contains the princess's cells.
[16:34] Dr. Franxx
    They didn't turn me into a klaxosaur
    like I wanted, but this will do.
[16:41] Dr. Franxx
    Get going.
[16:43] Zero Two (002)
    Doctor?
[16:44] Dr. Franxx
    It's the least I could do to atone.
[16:47] Dr. Franxx
    I won't ask for forgiveness.
    Feel free to hate me.
[16:50] Dr. Franxx
    I deserve it for what I've done to you.
[17:15] Zero Two (002)
    Are you telling me to ride you?
[17:20] Zero Two (002)
    Got it.
[17:24] Zero Two (002)
    Hey.
[17:26] Zero Two (002)
    Did you take me to Plantation 13
    to reunite me with my darling?
[17:33] Dr. Franxx
    Who knows?
[17:35] Dr. Franxx
    It's not like I was expecting you
    two to rekindle what you had.
[17:38] Dr. Franxx
    It was just a scientist's whim, a fancy.
[17:42] Zero Two (002)
    That's so you.
[17:46] Zero Two (002)
    Doctor, I should say this before I go.
[17:51] Zero Two (002)
    Thank you for creating me and
    helping me meet my darling.
[17:59] Dr. Franxx
    When did she become so human?
[18:30] Zero Two (002)
    Thank you.
SIGN    Star Entity Interior: Gran Cradle
[18:37] Zero Two (002)
    Strelitzia...
[18:43] Zero Two (002)
    Wait for me, darling.
[18:55] Zero Two (002)
    Darling!
[18:58] Zero Two (002)
    Darling!
[18:59] Zero Two (002)
    I'm here for you! I kept my promise!
[19:02] Zero Two (002)
    Hey, darling!
[19:04] Zero Two (002)
    Wake up! Open your eyes!
[19:07] Zero Two (002)
    Why aren't you saying anything? Talk to me!
[19:10] Zero Two (002)
    Hey, hey...
[19:12] Zero Two (002)
    Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
[19:14] Zero Two (002)
    I'm talking to you, darling!
[19:24] Zero Two (002)
    No...
[19:33] Hachi
    So it didn't work.
[19:37] Zero Two (002)
    I will never accept this.
[19:47] Zero Two (002)
    I will never give up.
[19:53] Zero Two (002)
    Wait for me, darling.
[20:00] 001
    Is this what living is for you?
[20:05] 001
    We believed that by abandoning
    our ties and embracing solitude,
[20:09] 001
    we could perfect ourselves,
    make ourselves stronger.
[20:13] 001
    However...
[20:14] 001
    Perhaps some lives only shine
    in unison with another.
[20:21] 001
    Very well.
[20:23] 001
    I shall give you every ounce of
    strength that remains within me.
[20:27] 001
    Whether or not you can take over
    the controls will be up to you.
[20:34] 001
    I stake this planet's future on you two.
[20:45] Zero Two (002)
    Darling...
[20:47] Zero Two (002)
    Darling.
[20:53] Hiro (016)
    Zero Two?
[21:02] Zero Two (002)
    I kept my promise.
[21:06] Hiro (016)
    I believed you would.
[21:08] Zero Two (002)
    Everyone helped.
[21:11] Hiro (016)
    Right.
[21:18] Hiro (016)
    I missed you, Zero Two.
[21:23] Zero Two (002)
