[00:03] Goro (056)
    "Yesterday was rainy, and today is clear.
[00:06] Goro (056)
    What will tomorrow be like?"
[00:08] Goro (056)
    I'm always trying to figure
    out what your outlook is.
[00:13] Goro (056)
    I can tell what's coming, be it
    sudden squalls or clear blue skies,
[00:18] Goro (056)
    by following your gaze.
[00:20] Goro (056)
    Your forecasts are always
    simple and accurate.
[00:23] Futoshi (214)
    Guys! They're here!
[00:28] Zorome (666)
    Awesome! Which one's mine?
[00:35] Goro (056)
    You're still asking for that kiddie stuff?
[00:38] Ichigo (015)
    Wh-What does it matter?
[00:41] Zero Two (002)
    Presents?
[00:42] Hiro (016)
    Yeah. Once every year, we can
    ask Papa for the things we want,
[00:47] Hiro (016)
    and we'll get them on this particular day.
[00:50] Zero Two (002)
    Huh... What's that?
[00:53] Zero Two (002)
    A picture book?
[00:54] Hiro (016)
    A picture book?
[00:56] Hiro (016)
    Oh, nah. This is an illustrated guide.
[00:59] Hiro (016)
    Do you like picture books?
    I think we have some in the study.
[01:03] Zorome (666)
    Okay, listen up!
[01:05] Zorome (666)
    I'm gonna read Papa's message!
[01:07] Zorome (666)
    Ahem. Er...
[01:10] Zorome (666)
    "Boys and girls, your numerous
    accomplishments represent
[01:13] Zorome (666)
    a ray of hope, a harbinger of
    peace and prosperity for mankind.
[01:17] Zorome (666)
    Glory be to you noble parasites,
    who risk your lives for us."
[01:23] Zorome (666)
    Hear that?!
[01:25] Zorome (666)
    He called us "a ray of hope"!
    That makes me wanna do even better!
[03:06] Goro (056)
    Hey, what are you doing—
[03:07] Ichigo (015)
    Shh!
[03:09] Zero Two (002)
    What's this?
[03:11] Hiro (016)
    It didn't feel right that we were
    the only ones who got presents.
[03:15] Hiro (016)
    So I wanted to find something for you, too.
[03:20] Hiro (016)
    A girl called Naomi left that behind.
[03:23] Hiro (016)
    Should I not have?
[03:26] Zero Two (002)
    Nah.
[03:29] Zero Two (002)
    Thank you, darling!
[03:29] Hiro (016)
    H-Hey!
[03:31] Zero Two (002)
    I never knew getting a present from
    someone could make me this happy.
[03:35] Zero Two (002)
    I'll take good care of it!
[03:38] Hiro (016)
    Great.
[03:46] (Flashback) Hiro (016)
    Your bangs have grown, Ichigo.
    It'll be harder to see.
[03:49] (Flashback) Ichigo (015)
    You think so?
[03:51] (Flashback) Ichigo (015)
    Anyway, I asked for another
    stuffed toy! What about you two?
[04:25] Goro (056)
    Oh, there you are.
[04:27] Goro (056)
    That was a surprise.
[04:29] Goro (056)
    I didn't know Zero Two
    smiled that way with you.
[04:34] Hiro (016)
    The heck? You were watching?
[04:36] Goro (056)
    Sorry.
[04:39] Hiro (016)
    Isn't that Ichigo's...
[04:41] Goro (056)
    Yeah. The same type of hair clip.
[04:43] Goro (056)
    But this is one I tried and failed
    to give her a long time ago.
[04:49] Goro (056)
    Remember when I told you I didn't understand
    this "love" thing you guys talk about?
[04:56] Goro (056)
    Now, I'm starting to think it means
    the other person is special to you.
[05:00] Hiro (016)
    Special? Maybe, yeah.
[05:03] Goro (056)
    You've always been Ichigo's hero.
[05:07] Goro (056)
    That's special, right?
[05:10] Hiro (016)
    Where is all this coming from?
[05:12] Goro (056)
    I'm thinking she probably feels the same
    way about you as you do about Zero Two.
[05:18] Hiro (016)
    The same?
[05:19] Goro (056)
    Like, y'know, wanting to know more
    about you, be with you more, and, uh...
[05:24] Goro (056)
    do that kiss thing with you.
[05:27] Goro (056)
    What? You really hadn't noticed?
[05:30] Hiro (016)
    B-But...
[05:33] Hiro (016)
    W-Wait, doesn't that mean you—
[05:35] Goro (056)
    I know everything.
[05:37] Goro (056)
    I know what makes her laugh,
    and what makes her cry...
[05:43] Goro (056)
    But none of them would work for me.
[05:46] Goro (056)
    You might be the only one who can, Hiro.
[05:49] Hiro (016)
    Goro... You're being kinda weird today.
[05:53] Goro (056)
    Yeah, I know it's weird.
[05:55] Goro (056)
    Watching you lately made my
    own feelings clear to me.
[06:01] Goro (056)
    It helped me realize that I love Ichigo.
[06:06] Goro (056)
    Whew! That's a load off my chest.
[06:10] Goro (056)
    Time to sleep.
[06:11] Hiro (016)
    Wait, Goro!
[06:16] Goro (056)
    But you know what?
[06:18] Goro (056)
    I'm plenty happy with the way things are.
[06:27] Ikuno (196)
    I'm turning off the lights.
[06:28] Ichigo (015)
    Oh, wait a sec.
[06:34] Ichigo (015)
    Go ahead.
[06:35] Ikuno (196)
    Goodnight.
[06:50] Hachi
    We've detected a Gutenberg-class klaxosaur
    at a distance approximately 2,000 from here.
[06:55] Nana
    It's moving slowly,
     but judging from its course,
[06:58] Nana
    we predict that it'll make
    contact with the plantation.
[07:01] Nana
    We must avoid a repeat of the
    previous attack at all costs.
[07:04] All
    Yes, ma'am!
[07:05] Nana
    Also, the target is a
    long way away this time.
[07:09] Nana
    Your units have been loaded with more
    fuel than usual, so make a note of that.
[07:17] Kokoro (556)
    Look, there's a huge thundercloud.
[07:20] Ikuno (196)
    Thundercloud?
[07:29] Hiro (016)
    What is that?
[07:32] Hachi
    Target sighted.
[07:34] Miku (390)
    It's kinda gross!
[07:36] Hachi
    All units, prepare for combat.
[07:38] Zorome (666)
    Roger that!
[07:40] Zorome & Miku
    Argentea, going in!
[08:04] Miku (390)
    What?
[08:05] Ichigo (015)
    Explosions?
[08:12] Goro (056)
    This isn't good.
[08:15] Zorome (666)
    Damn it.
[08:19] Zorome (666)
    Hey, the core's right there.
[08:23] Zorome (666)
    Gotcha!
[08:25] Goro (056)
    You idiot! Don't!
[08:29] Miku (390)
    Damn, that's hard!
[08:33] Zorome (666)
    What is up with this thing?
[08:34] Miku (390)
    I can't move!
[08:35] Goro (056)
    No!
[08:41] Mitsuru (326)
    It's activating something!
[08:43] Hiro (016)
    Ichigo! Goro!
[08:44] Ichigo (015)
    I can't move!
[08:45] Goro (056)
    Everyone get away!
[09:06] Goro (056)
    Ow...
[09:16] (Flashback) Hiro (016)
    Ichigo! Goro!
[09:17] (Flashback) Ichigo (015)
    I can't move!
[09:18] (Flashback) Goro (056)
    Everyone get away!
[09:28] Hiro (016)
    Goro.
[09:29] Goro (056)
    Hiro?!
[09:31] Hiro (016)
    Thank goodness. I finally got through to you.
[09:32] Goro (056)
    Is Ichigo okay?
[09:33] Hiro (016)
    She's fine. She got knocked out by the
    ejection, but her injuries aren't severe.
[09:38] Hiro (016)
    She's getting treated along
    with Zorome and Miku.
[09:41] Goro (056)
    Oh... good.
[09:44] Goro (056)
    Hey, Hiro. Could you contact
    the transport team for me?
[09:48] Goro (056)
    I can't operate this thing alone.
[09:51] Hiro (016)
    Goro, I want you to stay
    calm and listen to me.
[09:54] Hiro (016)
    You're inside the klaxosaur right now.
[09:59] Goro (056)
    What does that mean?
[10:00] Goro (056)
    We didn't eliminate the klaxosaur?
[10:03] Hiro (016)
    It swallowed Delphinium right as it exploded.
[10:07] Hiro (016)
    Soon after that, we were ordered to retreat,
[10:09] Hiro (016)
    so we're back at the plantation for now.
[10:13] Goro (056)
    So that's what happened.
[10:15] Futoshi (214)
    But we'll figure something out,
    so don't worry!
[10:20] Goro (056)
    Got it. I'll try to figure
    out what I can do, too.
[10:23] Hiro (016)
    Goro...
[10:25] Hiro (016)
    Sorry we retreated and left you there.
[10:28] Goro (056)
    Don't worry about it.
[10:30] Goro (056)
    Anyway, I'm wasting power here, so I'm
    gonna switch to safe mode for a bit.
[10:33] Hiro (016)
    All right. We'll get in touch again.
[10:36] Ikuno (196)
    You can't utilize a FRANXX's
    magma energy without its pistil.
[10:41] Kokoro (556)
    You mean...
[10:42] Mitsuru (326)
    Don't worry.
[10:44] Mitsuru (326)
    The FRANXX are programmed to run their
    life support systems on backup power.
[10:48] Zero Two (002)
    Then he'll die if it runs out.
[10:53] Zero Two (002)
    Well, as things stand, this plantation
     and all of us will go boom.
[11:01] Miku (390)
    Wait!
[11:02] Ikuno (196)
    Ichigo?
[11:03] Miku (390)
    You should still be in bed!
[11:05] Ichigo (015)
    What's all this about Goro getting
    swallowed by the klaxosaur?
[11:08] Zorome (666)
    I told you, he tried to save us and...
[11:11] Ichigo (015)
    Then why aren't we going
    to rescue him already?
[11:14] Ichigo (015)
    How could you turn tail like that?
[11:15] Ichigo (015)
    Even now, he's trapped inside the klaxosaur!
[11:19] Ichigo (015)
    That fool...
[11:20] Ichigo (015)
    Why'd he cut me loose? He knows
    he's helpless by himself!
[11:27] Miku (390)
    You're so annoying.
[11:28] Miku (390)
    Don't you realize that Goro's
    always looking out for you?
[11:32] Ichigo (015)
    What?
[11:33] Miku (390)
    Like that time Hiro almost died.
[11:35] Miku (390)
    You broke down immediately! And who
    do you think got you back on your feet?
[11:39] Ichigo (015)
    What gives you the right
    to run your mouth at me?
[11:41] Miku (390)
    You go around all like,
    "I'm the leader, I'm the leader,"
[11:43] Miku (390)
    but you lose your cool and
    lash out at the drop of a hat.
[11:46] Miku (390)
    Goro must have a hard time with
    you as his partner! That's my point!
[11:53] Nana
    All right. That's enough.
[11:57] Nana
    I'm glad you kids are okay.
[12:00] Hachi
    I see everyone's here.
[12:04] Hachi
    Analysis of the samples stuck on your units
[12:06] Hachi
    showed that it's a klaxosaur that vaporizes
    its bodily fluids to expand and explode.
[12:12] Kokoro (556)
    You mean Goro's stuck in its fuel right now?
[12:16] Nana
    Relax. Fortunately, the part
    that Delphinium jumped into
[12:21] Nana
    has been confirmed to be harmless to FRANXX.
[12:24] Zorome (666)
    Then I guess we rescue Goro first.
[12:27] Zorome (666)
    I owe him one, after all.
[12:29] Hachi
    Our top priority is preventing the target
    from making contact with the plantation.
[12:34] Hachi
    Estimated time of contact is
    approximately one hour from now.
[12:37] Hachi
    We'll set up a last line of defense
[12:39] Hachi
    and eliminate the klaxosaur
    before it crosses that line.
[12:43] Futoshi (214)
    What if we can't eliminate it by then?
[12:47] Hachi
    In that case, the plantation
    will open fire, as well.
[12:51] Hachi
    To protect itself, the target will use its
    internal fuel and explode several times.
[12:55] Hachi
    As long as we launch enough strikes,
    there's a chance one of them will finish it.
[13:02] Hiro (016)
    Are you saying you'll leave Goro to die?!
[13:05] Nana
    In the worst case scenario, yes.
[13:08] Ikuno (196)
    No...
[13:09] Hachi
    The operation begins in 15 minutes.
[13:13] Hachi
    All hands, prepare to sortie.
[13:20] Ichigo (015)
    Um...
[13:21] Ichigo (015)
    Please let me talk to Goro first!
[13:30] Goro (056)
    Is that water I hear?
[13:33] Goro (056)
    It's been 30 minutes since
    Hiro and the others radioed.
[13:41] Goro (056)
    There's only one thing I can do right now...
[13:45] Ichigo (015)
    Goro.
[13:45] Goro (056)
    Ichigo?
[13:46] Goro (056)
    Thank goodness! You came to!
[13:48] Ichigo (015)
    You idiot! What were you thinking,
    getting yourself swallowed whole?!
[13:52] Ichigo (015)
    Why do you always put
    yourself second like this?
[13:55] Ichigo (015)
    How are you going to get
    out of there without me?
[13:58] Ichigo (015)
    You've always been like this!
[14:00] Ichigo (015)
    Always making selfish decisions,
[14:01] Ichigo (015)
    and always coming back hurt!
[14:05] Ichigo (015)
    Why don't you lean on me a little?
[14:10] Ichigo (015)
    I'll save you.
[14:12] Ichigo (015)
    I'll save you, no matter what.
[14:15] Ichigo (015)
    So wait for me!
[14:17] Goro (056)
    Ichigo...
[14:20] Goro (056)
    Are you crying?
[14:22] Ichigo (015)
    Shut up.
[14:26] Goro (056)
    It's all right, Ichigo. I came up with a plan.
[14:30] Goro (056)
    I'm going to kill this thing
    and come home to you.
[14:35] Goro (056)
    So don't worry about me.
[14:38] Ichigo (015)
    Kill it? How?
[14:40] Goro (056)
    Can't waste any more power.
    I'm gonna hang up.
[14:42] Ichigo (015)
    Goro!
[14:44] Goro (056)
    I've got this in the bag,
    even if I'm by myself.
[14:57] Ichigo (015)
    Let me go rescue Goro!
[14:59] Ichigo (015)
    Knowing him, I bet he's thinking
    of doing something stupid!
[15:02] Ichigo (015)
    He's just acting tough! I can tell!
[15:05] Hiro (016)
    I agree! Let us go, please!
[15:08] Nana
    And how exactly do you intend to rescue him?
[15:10] Ichigo (015)
    W-Well...
[15:12] Zero Two (002)
    There was one spot.
[15:14] Zero Two (002)
    There was an exhaust hole,
    of sorts, on top of the klaxosaur.
[15:18] Zero Two (002)
    Someone could probably get
    in there if they tried.
[15:24] Hachi
    Genista and Chlorophytum are standing
    by as the last line of defense.
[15:28] Hachi
    If it looks like the target will cross it...
[15:31] Ichigo (015)
    Yes, I know.
[15:35] Hiro (016)
    To get to Delphinium, you'll have to cross
    an area of highly pressurized vapor fuel.
[15:40] Hiro (016)
    There's no guarantee that
    it's safe, even in your suit.
[15:44] Ichigo (015)
    I know.
[15:45] Ichigo (015)
    But there's a chance, right?
[15:47] Zero Two (002)
    Who knows? I wouldn't do it if I were you.
[15:50] Hiro (016)
    Hey, Zero Two!
[15:53] Ichigo (015)
    But I will.
[15:54] Ichigo (015)
    I believe in you, Zero Two!
[15:59] Zero Two (002)
    I don't dislike this sort of thing.
[16:02] Zorome (666)
    Let's go!
[16:03] Zorome (666)
    Upsy-daisy!
[16:07] Hiro (016)
    Ichigo!
[16:08] Hiro (016)
    Go get Goro for us.
[16:14] Miku (390)
    Hurry!
[16:28] Ichigo (015)
    Just you wait, Goro!
[16:41] Guard
    Why does that guy keep
    picking fights with us?
[16:43] Goro (056)
    Sick of the communal lifestyle,
[16:43] Guard
    Well, he's weak as hell,
    so it's no big deal.
[16:46] Goro (056)
    I thought I'd get to be alone if
    I made everyone else hate me.
[16:51] (Flashback) Ichigo (015)
    Why do you keep getting into
    fights when you're so weak?
[16:54] (Flashback) Goro (056)
    Stay out of this!
[16:58] (Flashback) Guard
    C'mon, bring it!
[17:01] (Flashback) Ichigo (015)
    Told you so.
[17:03] (Flashback) Goro (056)
    I've got this in the bag,
    even if I'm by myself.
[17:06] (Flashback) Ichigo (015)
    Here.
[17:21] (Flashback) Goro (056)
    I never asked for your help, all right?
[17:24] (Flashback) Ichigo (015)
    But hey, we won.
[17:27] (Flashback) Ichigo (015)
    Maybe we can't win alone,
    but the two of us together can.
[17:32] Goro (056)
    Yeah, I've loved Ichigo ever since then,
[17:37] Goro (056)
    and Hiro has always been right beside her.
[17:58] Goro (056)
    But I was okay with that.
[18:01] Goro (056)
    Because Hiro was special
    to me in his own way, too.
[18:12] Hiro (016)
    You two better not die!
[18:17] Miku (390)
    It's Genista and Chlorophytum!
[18:19] Ikuno (196)
    There'll be trouble if it crosses this line!
[18:21] Kokoro (556)
    It'll be fine. Believe in Ichigo.
[18:25] Goro (056)
    I used to think that I didn't mind if my
    feelings never got through to her.
[18:29] Goro (056)
    But if there's one thing I regret...
[18:44] Goro (056)
    That's more than enough to self-destruct.
[18:58] Goro (056)
    There's the backup fuel pack, too.
[19:02] Goro (056)
    This will be one hell of a present, huh?
[19:05] Goro (056)
    I just wish I could've told her...
[19:18] Goro (056)
    Ichigo?!
[19:21] Ichigo (015)
    Wow... The air's thin in here.
[19:26] Goro (056)
    Why'd you come?
[19:28] Ichigo (015)
    I said I'd save you no matter what, didn't I?
[19:31] Goro (056)
    And I told you that I'd be all right!
[19:33] Ichigo (015)
    You're an idiot, so I knew you'd try
    to fix everything by yourself.
[19:40] Ichigo (015)
    You're so headstrong,
     even though you're weak.
[19:42] Ichigo (015)
    Even though you can't do
    anything without me...
[19:44] Goro (056)
    But that doesn't mean you
    had to do this alone!
[19:46] Ichigo (015)
    You're wrong.
[19:48] Ichigo (015)
    Maybe we can't win alone, but the
    two of us together can, remember?
[19:55] Goro (056)
    You were willing to cry for me.
[19:58] Goro (056)
    I thought I was satisfied
    just knowing that...
[20:03] Goro (056)
    until a moment ago.
[20:05] Goro (056)
    But now, seeing your face as you smile at me
[20:09] Goro (056)
    is making me happier than
    anything ever has before.
[20:15] Ichigo (015)
    What's all this? Quit being gross.
[20:18] Ichigo (015)
    Let's get out of here already.
[20:22] Goro (056)
    Let's go, Ichigo!
[20:24] Ichigo (015)
    Roger!
[20:37] Hiro (016)
    They're out!
[20:37] Zorome (666)
    Hell yeah!
[20:40] Goro (056)
    Everyone, get the hell out of here!
[20:42] Miku (390)
    Huh?
[20:42] Goro (056)
    Hurry!
[21:17] Ichigo (015)
    There. All done.
[21:18] Goro (056)
    Ow...
[21:20] Goro (056)
    Thanks.
[21:23] Goro (056)
    Ichigo, where's your hair clip?
[21:27] Ichigo (015)
    H-Huh? Did I lose it?
[21:31] Goro (056)
    Here.
[21:32] Ichigo (015)
    Oh...
[21:34] Ichigo (015)
    You picked it up for me?
[21:35] Goro (056)
    Nah. This is something I wanted
    to give you, but couldn't.
[21:43] Goro (056)
    You know, I think I love you.
[21:49] Goro (056)
    Don't get so flustered.
[21:52] Goro (056)
    I just felt like telling you.
[21:56] Goro (056)
    But I don't want to think,
    "I should've done that back then."
[21:59] Goro (056)
    I don't want to regret things anymore.
[22:03] Ichigo (015)
    I-I had something to say to you, too!
[22:10] Ichigo (015)
    Thank you for being my partner.
[22:14] Ichigo (015)
    B-But, uh, I don't know how to
    respond to the love thing.
[22:20] Goro (056)
    I wasn't trying to put you on the spot.
[22:23] Goro (056)
    I'm not expecting an answer or anything.
[22:29] Goro (056)
    But let me stay like this for a while.
[22:33] Ichigo (015)
    Sure.
[22:34] Goro (056)
    Crying one minute, smiling the next...
    I don't get you at all today.
[22:41] Goro (056)
    What's the outlook for tomorrow?
[22:43] Goro (056)
    Right now, you're impossible to forecast.
