SIGN    No one can swim in the same river water twice
SIGN    "No one can swim in the same river water twice."
[00:06] Goro (056)
    That's an old saying Hiro told me about.
[00:13] Goro (056)
    Everything changes,
[00:17] Goro (056)
    all things eventually pass,
[00:19] Goro (056)
    and nothing remains stagnant.
[00:22] Goro (056)
    Yes, like a river.
[00:25] Goro (056)
    That is the nature of our world.
[00:30] Goro (056)
    Lately, I often recall these words and
    the fact that no one can halt the flow,
[00:36] Goro (056)
    in this world without Papa,
[00:38] Goro (056)
    where we don't need to
    pilot the FRANXX anymore.
[00:43] Hiro (016)
    Say, "Aah."
[00:46] Hiro (016)
    Come on, Zero Two.
[00:48] Hiro (016)
    Open your mouth, please.
[00:55] Hiro (016)
    Excuse me.
[02:32] Ikuno (196)
    Can't we increase the portions a little?
[02:35] Ichigo (015)
    No can do. We only have food
    reserves for around one more year.
[02:39] Miku (390)
    But the veggies are growing fine.
[02:42] Zorome (666)
    Yeah, yeah. We'll be able to harvest
    them in a couple of months.
[02:46] Zorome (666)
    Right, Kokoro?
[02:47] Miku (390)
    We're so lucky that Kokoro
    knows so much about plants.
[02:50] Kokoro (556)
    Oh, no. I don't really know
    anything about harvesting.
[02:54] Ichigo (015)
    Right.
[02:55] Ichigo (015)
    So we should maintain the status quo until
    we have a firm estimate for the harvest.
[02:59] Zorome (666)
    Tch.
[03:00] Goro (056)
    Mitsuru, how's the energy system looking?
[03:02] Mitsuru (326)
    We still haven't serviced the unit
    that's been acting up lately.
[03:06] Mitsuru (326)
    Output's gone down.
[03:10] Goro (056)
    Futoshi, how'd the water
    purification system look?
[03:12] Futoshi (214)
    Its efficiency has dropped, too.
[03:16] Goro (056)
    What's wrong?
[03:19] Futoshi (214)
    Should we really keep using magma energy?
[03:23] Futoshi (214)
    It originally belonged
    to the klaxosaurs, right?
[03:26] Zorome (666)
    Well, what else can we do?
[03:28] Zorome (666)
    How else are we gonna live?
[03:30] Miku (390)
    It's used in food preservation and
    for treating wounds too, you know.
[03:34] Futoshi (214)
    I know, but...
[03:37] Kokoro (556)
    Sorry. I need to lie down.
[03:39] Miku (390)
    You okay?
[03:41] Kokoro (556)
    I'm fine.
[03:49] Ichigo (015)
    How do you feel, Hiro?
[03:53] Goro (056)
    About magma energy.
[03:55] Hiro (016)
    O-Oh...
[04:02] Ichigo (015)
    Anyway, we've got to survive any way we can.
[04:05] Ichigo (015)
    Let's figure out what we need for that.
[04:09] Ichigo (015)
    Cheer up.
[04:12] Hiro (016)
    Ichigo?
[04:13] Ichigo (015)
    I guess that's impossible right now, huh?
[04:17] Ichigo (015)
    Given the state Zero Two is in...
[04:22] Ichigo (015)
    I've said this before, but please let
    us know if we can help in any way.
[04:26] Ichigo (015)
    We're all worried about you two.
[04:29] Hiro (016)
    Sorry, Ichigo.
[04:32] Ichigo (015)
    Don't apologize, dummy.
[04:35] Guard
    Um, Code 015. We have a problem.
[04:41] Ichigo (015)
    I heard.
[04:43] Ichigo (015)
    You've been refusing to eat since yesterday?
[04:47] Nine Alpha
    Eating that stuff can only abate
    our condition for so long.
[04:53] Nine Alpha
    What we really need is maintenance.
[04:58] Ichigo (015)
    I'll leave your food here.
[05:08] Nine Alpha
    Damn it!
[05:10] Nana
    I understand where you're coming from,
[05:13] Nana
    but I cannot make any decisions
    without Papa's approval.
[05:17] Goro (056)
    But if this keeps up, we're all
    going to die eventually!
[05:22] Nana
    I suppose so.
[05:33] Ichigo (015)
    Thanks.
[05:37] Ichigo (015)
    If the farm works out and we
    won't have to worry about food,
[05:41] Ichigo (015)
    we can start planning for the future.
[05:46] Goro (056)
    I went and spoke to the new Nana.
[05:49] Goro (056)
    I asked for power and purification
    system repairs, but...
[05:52] Ichigo (015)
    No go?
[05:55] Goro (056)
    Yeah.
[05:57] Goro (056)
    Life in the outside world is hard, huh?
[06:00] Goro (056)
    You run into obstacles everywhere.
[06:03] Goro (056)
    This is like...
[06:04] Ichigo (015)
    "No one can swim in the
    same river water twice."
[06:08] Ichigo (015)
    It's a saying Hiro taught me in the past.
[06:11] Ichigo (015)
    I recall it often these days.
[06:18] Goro (056)
    Hopefully, Hiro and Zero Two
    will get better soon.
[06:22] Ichigo (015)
    Yep.
[06:26] Hiro (016)
    Even more cuts?
[06:30] Hiro (016)
    Why?
[06:38] Ichigo (015)
    Are you okay?
[06:39] Ichigo (015)
    Don't push yourself.
[06:41] Ikuno (196)
    Thanks for the concern, but I'm fine.
[06:44] Ikuno (196)
    My fever's gone down, too.
[06:46] Ichigo (015)
    Okay.
[06:47] Hiro (016)
    Sorry I'm late.
[06:50] Goro (056)
    Dude, you look like a wreck.
[06:53] Futoshi (214)
    Sit this one out, Hiro.
[06:55] Hiro (016)
    It's fine.
[06:57] Goro (056)
    Hiro, you—
[07:00] Zorome (666)
    What's going on? An earthquake?
[07:03] Futoshi (214)
    Look!
[07:10] Hiro (016)
    Is that a klaxosaur?
[07:13] Goro (056)
    No, there's a VIRM soldier, too!
    They killed each other!
[07:18] Miku (390)
    Kokoro?
[07:19] Mitsuru (326)
    Are you all right?
[07:20] Kokoro (556)
    Y-Yes...
[07:22] Zorome (666)
    Are they gonna attack Earth again?
[07:25] Futoshi (214)
    N-No way...
[07:29] Futoshi (214)
    The klaxosaurs are flying off again.
[07:33] Miku (390)
    Kokoro!
[07:34] Miku (390)
    What's wrong, Kokoro?
[07:37] Futoshi (214)
    Kokoro!
[07:38] Ichigo (015)
    Let Nana know!
[07:39] Mitsuru (326)
    K-Kokoro...
[07:39] Miku (390)
    Hurry!
[07:40] Ikuno (196)
    Got it!
[07:41] Mitsuru (326)
    Kokoro!
[07:43] Nana
    The results are in.
[07:45] Nana
    Her urine sample revealed traces
    of human chorionic gonadotropin.
[07:49] Nana
    According to the database,
[07:51] Nana
    this is a hormone secreted during pregnancy.
[08:00] Kokoro (556)
    "Pregnancy"?
[08:01] Ikuno (196)
    What's that?
[08:09] Nana
    It is considered impossible for a
    pregnant woman to pilot the FRANXX.
[08:13] Nana
    Past records indicate abortion,
[08:15] Nana
    or removal of the fetus,
    as one of the treatments used.
[08:21] Nana
    Please let me know when
    you've decided what to do.
[08:24] Kokoro (556)
    W-Wait...
[08:26] Kokoro (556)
    Please wait!
[08:28] Kokoro (556)
    What should I...
[08:30] Kokoro (556)
    What should I do?!
[08:31] Miku (390)
    Calm down, Kokoro!
[08:32] Kokoro (556)
    Tell me! Tell me what to do!
[08:33] Ichigo (015)
    Boys, please give us a moment.
[08:41] Mitsuru (326)
    What am I supposed to do?
[08:44] Mitsuru (326)
    Hiro, what am I supposed to do?
[08:47] Futoshi (214)
    Mitsuru, you...
[08:48] Goro (056)
    Don't.
[08:51] Hiro (016)
    I don't know.
[08:55] Hiro (016)
    What are we supposed to do?
    What's the right thing to do?
[08:58] Hiro (016)
    How am I supposed to know?
[09:06] Hiro (016)
    Zero Two?
[09:08] Hiro (016)
    Zero Two!
[09:09] Hiro (016)
    Where are you, Zero Two?!
[09:13] Hiro (016)
    Wait!
[09:17] Hiro (016)
    Zero Two!
[09:21] Hiro (016)
    Zero Two, have you regained...
[09:36] Goro (056)
    Guys!
[09:37] Goro (056)
    Come with me! Now!
[09:41] Zorome (666)
    Hey, come on. You've gotta be kidding me.
[09:45] Futoshi (214)
    They were growing fine...
[09:48] Ichigo (015)
    We gave them water and fertilizer
    just like the instructions said, too.
[09:57] Goro (056)
    Is that...
[10:05] Ikuno (196)
    Hachi!
[10:08] Miku (390)
    Nana?!
[10:14] (Flashback) Nana
    Hey.
[10:15] (Flashback) Nana
    What is this place?
[10:17] (Flashback) Hachi
    I have no idea, either.
[10:19] (Flashback) Hachi
    I'm just following the doctor's orders.
[10:23] (Flashback) Hachi
    What's this?
[10:26] (Flashback) Hachi
    A database of adults?
[10:28] (Flashback) Hachi
    All of the memories stored in their
    brains have been copied and archived.
[10:34] (Flashback) Nana
    "Cast your bodies aside, and take
    your minds to eternal paradise"?
[10:41] (Flashback) Nana
    Why didn't you just leave me be?
[10:46] (Flashback) Nana
    I don't serve a purpose anymore.
[10:48] (Flashback) Nana
    You should've just abandoned me.
[10:56] (Flashback) Hachi
    What's that?
[11:04] (Flashback) Hachi
    Could it be...
[11:12] (Flashback) Nana
    Naomi?!
[11:14] (Flashback) Nana
    What's the meaning of this?
[11:16] (Flashback) Nana
    Why are the children who were deemed unfit
    and disappeared from Garden here?
[11:22] (Flashback) Hachi
    After the siege of Gran Crevasse,
[11:24] (Flashback) Hachi
    I received an email from the doctor.
[11:27] (Flashback) Hachi
    Apparently, it was programmed to be
    sent automatically after his death.
SIGN    Take Nana to the location below
[11:31] (Flashback) Hachi
    Aside from location data, it also
    contained a message from him.
[11:34] (Flashback) Hachi
    It said to bring you here, and...
SIGN    You two become the children's new adults
[11:38] (Flashback) Hachi
    "You two become the children's new adults."
[11:42] Nana
    How am I supposed to do that?
[11:45] Miku (390)
    Hey, Nana!
[11:47] Miku (390)
    I'm so glad you're back!
[11:50] Miku (390)
    Help...
[11:52] Miku (390)
    Help us!
[11:57] Hachi
    This is just conjecture,
[11:59] Hachi
    but decades of extracting magma energy
[12:03] Hachi
    may have depleted the soil itself of life.
[12:09] Zorome (666)
    What the heck are you saying?
[12:11] Zorome (666)
    Like, that means...
[12:14] Ikuno (196)
    So even the planet itself has rejected us?
[12:22] Ikuno (196)
    Ichigo?!
[12:23] Goro (056)
    Ichigo!
[12:47] Goro (056)
    How's Ichigo?
[12:51] Ikuno (196)
    They say it was overwork.
[12:54] Ikuno (196)
    She's such a fool, worrying about
    everyone but herself.
[12:57] Ikuno (196)
    She's really such a fool.
[13:05] Goro (056)
    Hiro!
[13:06] Hiro (016)
    Goro?
[13:07] Goro (056)
    You heard about the field, right?
    I really want to figure something out!
[13:12] Goro (056)
    If we all work together, we can
    surely make it productive again.
[13:15] Goro (056)
    Don't you agree?
[13:18] Hiro (016)
    Found her...
[13:21] Hiro (016)
    Zero Two...
[13:23] Hiro (016)
    Not again!
[13:24] Goro (056)
    H-Hey!
[13:34] Hiro (016)
    You'll catch a cold.
[13:36] Hiro (016)
    Let's go back inside, Zero Two.
[13:38] Hiro (016)
    Come on.
[13:39] Hiro (016)
    Come with me, Zero Two.
[13:51] Miku (390)
    Are you sure you'll be okay by yourself?
[13:54] Hiro (016)
    I want to keep watch over her myself.
[13:57] Miku (390)
    Fine.
[14:03] Hiro (016)
    What was that?
[14:06] Hiro (016)
    Tell me...
[14:26] Hiro (016)
    Huh?
[14:28] Hiro (016)
    Didn't she finish it?
[14:32] Hiro (016)
    "And so, she turned into a bird
[14:36] Hiro (016)
    and took to the skies,
    leaving the prince all alone."
[14:43] Hiro (016)
    You knew?
[14:45] Hiro (016)
    You knew that we'd have
    to part like them someday?
[14:50] Hiro (016)
    So you left the last page to me?
[14:53] Hiro (016)
    Why?
[14:55] Hiro (016)
    That's just cruel!
[15:23] Hiro (016)
    No...
[15:25] Hiro (016)
    Don't tell me...
[15:28] Hiro (016)
    Are you up there?!
[15:31] Goro (056)
    Hachi!
[15:31] Goro (056)
    Zoom in on that part!
[15:37] Goro (056)
    Mistilteinn?
[15:39] Hachi
    I see.
[15:40] Hachi
    I've heard that Mistilteinn contains soil
    from before this planet became a desert.
[15:46] Hachi
    Then if we start making fields
    there and gradually expand them...
[15:49] Hachi
    We'll stand a chance.
[15:52] Goro (056)
    I'll go let everyone know!
[16:02] Hachi
    Code 016.
[16:04] Zorome (666)
    For real?!
[16:05] Goro (056)
    Yeah. He said we stand a chance.
[16:07] Zorome (666)
    Hell yeah!
[16:09] Zorome (666)
    Let's head to Mistilteinn already!
[16:12] Ichigo (015)
    Hiro.
[16:14] Zorome (666)
    You're late, Hiro!
[16:17] Hiro (016)
    I need to talk to you about something.
[16:21] Ichigo (015)
    Huh?
[16:21] Ichigo (015)
    You're going to space?
[16:24] Goro (056)
    To meet Zero Two?
[16:25] Miku (390)
    What are you talking about?
    Zero Two's in her room.
[16:30] Hiro (016)
    Her mind is in Strelitzia.
[16:33] Hiro (016)
    And she's fighting in space even as we speak.
[16:38] Goro (056)
    Hang on. My brain can't keep up.
[16:41] Zorome (666)
    How are you gonna get to space, anyway?
[16:44] Hiro (016)
    There's a way.
[16:45] Hiro (016)
    A way the klaxosaurs left us.
[16:49] (Flashback) Hachi
    I found it while looking for cultivable land.
[16:53] (Flashback) Hachi
    It's a klaxosaur ship,
    but for some strange reason,
[16:57] (Flashback) Hachi
    I could access its internal systems.
[17:01] Hachi
    Decide whether you want
    to fight or accept your ruin.
[17:08] (Flashback) Hiro (016)
    I can take this ship to space?
[17:10] (Flashback) Hachi
    Probably.
[17:12] (Flashback) Hachi
    But this course...
[17:17] All
    Mars orbit?!
[17:20] Futoshi (214)
    Isn't that stupidly far away?
[17:22] Hiro (016)
    Yeah.
[17:23] Miku (390)
    W-Will you be able to come back?
[17:26] Hiro (016)
    I don't know.
[17:27] Zorome (666)
    You'll be up against those monsters, y'know!
[17:29] Hiro (016)
    That's right.
[17:31] Ikuno (196)
    We're saying that you could lose your life.
[17:33] Hiro (016)
    I know.
[17:35] Hiro (016)
    I know it's reckless.
[17:37] Hiro (016)
    But if I don't act now, I'll never
    be able to forgive myself.
[17:43] Hiro (016)
    So I'm going to go.
[17:45] Hiro (016)
    I just wanted to let you guys know.
[17:47] Hiro (016)
    Bye.
[17:48] Zorome (666)
    H-Hey...
[17:54] Goro (056)
    Hold it!
[17:57] Goro (056)
    Why?
[17:59] Goro (056)
    We need to work together
    again and start from scratch.
[18:03] Goro (056)
    Why'd you have to do this now?!
[18:08] Hiro (016)
    I can't leave Zero Two alone.
[18:11] Hiro (016)
    We made a promise.
[18:13] Hiro (016)
    Even if we were torn apart,
[18:15] Hiro (016)
    we'd go to get the other, no matter how far.
[18:18] Hiro (016)
    Zero Two kept up her end of the promise.
[18:21] Hiro (016)
    So I can't just sit here and do nothing.
[18:25] Hiro (016)
    Absolutely not!
[18:28] Hiro (016)
    I feel bad about letting you all down.
[18:31] Hiro (016)
    But I want you to understand.
[18:36] Goro (056)
    What do you mean, you feel bad?
[18:39] Goro (056)
    What do you mean, you want us to understand?
[18:42] Goro (056)
    Have you ever spared a thought for
    how the people close to you feel?
[18:51] Goro (056)
    You've always been like this.
[18:53] Goro (056)
    You run off, make your own decisions,
    and never stop to think about us.
[18:58] Goro (056)
    Papa and the adults are gone,
[19:00] Goro (056)
    but forget freedom, we've got our
    hands tied on every single thing.
[19:04] Goro (056)
    Have you stopped to think about how
    worried we are about all of this?
[19:08] Goro (056)
    When someone collapses,
    all we can do is watch.
[19:10] Goro (056)
    And yet we're trying our
    damned hardest to live on!
[19:13] Goro (056)
    But here you are, running off to die.
[19:16] Goro (056)
    What are we supposed to
    understand about you?
[19:19] Goro (056)
    There are people doing all they can to
    support you because they want you to live.
[19:23] Goro (056)
    And you're trampling their
    feelings as you leave!
[19:25] Goro (056)
    What the hell do you want us
    to understand about you?!
[19:33] Hiro (016)
    Even so, I have to go.
[19:37] Hiro (016)
    If Zero Two won't smile for me,
    I might as well be dead.
[19:48] Zorome (666)
    Hey, Goro! Knock it off!
[20:03] Miku (390)
    Do you think we'll ever
    find something like that?
[20:07] Miku (390)
    Something that means the world to us,
    that we'd choose over anything else, like him.
[20:15] Ikuno (196)
    That differs from person to person.
[20:20] Ichigo (015)
    Thanks, Goro.
[20:24] Goro (056)
    For what?
[20:27] Goro (056)
    That was never about how everyone felt.
[20:31] Goro (056)
    It was all about me.
[20:32] Goro (056)
    I'm the one scared of the
    world that I chose myself.
[20:36] Goro (056)
    That's me.
[20:39] Ichigo (015)
    Yeah?
[20:46] Ichigo (015)
    Same here.
[20:49] Ichigo (015)
    But...
[20:50] Ichigo (015)
    No one can swim in the
    same river water twice,
[20:55] Ichigo (015)
    so all we can do is find
    our own true path in life.
[21:01] Ichigo (015)
    We'll keep looking for it until we find it.
[21:06] Ichigo (015)
    Our lives have only just begun, you know?
[22:03] Goro (056)
    Hey.
[22:05] Hiro (016)
    Hey.
[22:08] Hiro (016)
    Where are you guys going?
[22:14] Ichigo (015)
    We're taking you to Zero Two.
[22:17] Zorome (666)
    But we're not just doing
    it for you, you hear me?
[22:21] Zorome (666)
    If we don't kick those guys' asses,
    no farm can help us.
[22:25] Futoshi (214)
    And letting them kill us or waiting
    here to die isn't our style.
[22:28] Miku (390)
    Exactly. Our lives have only just begun.
[22:32] Ikuno (196)
    There you have it.
[22:34] Nana
    Take care of things while we're gone.
[22:36] Nana
    Sure.
[22:37] Nine Alpha
    Let us join you.
[22:39] Ichigo (015)
    Nines.
[22:40] Nine Alpha
    Don't get the wrong idea, though.
[22:43] Nine Alpha
    We were created to fight, so we
    just want to fulfill our purpose.
[22:48] Nine Beta
    And outer space doesn't sound
    too bad as a resting place.
[22:53] Ichigo (015)
    We don't plan on dying.
[22:55] Ichigo (015)
    We'll come back, make more fields,
[22:58] Ichigo (015)
    and live on, come what may...
[23:01] Ichigo (015)
    No matter how pathetic it may make us look.
[23:08] Goro (056)
    Hiro...
[23:14] Goro (056)
    You've made your decision.
    I won't fight it anymore.
[23:18] Goro (056)
    Now we're even.
[23:21] Goro (056)
    This is the path we've
    chosen in order to live.
[23:25] Goro (056)
    You don't get to fight it, either.
[23:29] Hiro (016)
    Okay!
[23:32] Goro (056)
    Everything changes,
[23:34] Goro (056)
    all things eventually pass,
    and nothing remains stagnant.
[23:39] Goro (056)
    Yes, like a river.
[23:42] Goro (056)
    But if that nature of our world scares you
    out of appreciating what you have now,
[23:47] Goro (056)
    you'll never grasp any kind
    of future for yourself.
[23:52] Goro (056)
    That's why we reached out.
