*The shining horizon*
**[00:31] ---**
*Where beginning and end meld together*
**[00:37] ---**
*That's where tears come from*
**[00:42] ---**
*With a trembling hand,*
**[00:44] ---**
*I stuffed my pocket full
of the things I believed in*
**[00:50] ---**
*A mirage wavering in the distance*
**[01:00] ---**
*Looking up at the sky, like a guiding beacon*
**[01:04] ---**
*A familiar, warm light*
**[01:08] ---**
*Granting me that, you give a little wave*
**[01:15] ---**
*I have to go, I won't cry anymore, Shangri-La*
**[01:19] ---**
*I'll dive into a new world*
**[01:23] ---**
*In the embrace of this color blue*
**[01:30] ---**
*With this thrilling in my heart for company*
**[01:59] ---**
Colonel Tanaka.
**[02:01] ---**
Nik is fine.
**[02:02] ---**
I'm half-Japanese, half-Hawaiian.
**[02:09] ---**
Now, shall we begin?
**[02:34] ---**
Here's a treat for you guys!
**[02:36] ---**
Sure.
**[02:38] ---**
What's your technician mad about?
**[02:41] ---**
Huh? But he's happy.
**[02:43] ---**
Really...
**[02:46] ---**
JJ.
**[02:47] ---**
JJ...
**[02:51] ---**
What's *your* technician doing?
**[02:55] ---**
Shut up.
**[02:56] ---**
"Drink! You sons-of-bitches"
**[02:59] ---**
As soon as all personnel are ready, we will
begin the Third Engine activation test.
**[03:04] ---**
Prepped and ready.
**[03:06] ---**
Third Engine...
**[03:07] ---**
Connecting!
**[03:19] ---**
Fleur, go "upsy daisy."
**[03:21] ---**
Roger.
**[03:23] ---**
Elena, retract the auxiliary leg.
**[03:26] ---**
You got it!
**[03:26] ---**
What?!
**[04:10] ---**
Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
**[04:16] ---**
Wait! No way!
**[04:18] ---**
Yer done gonna be punished!
**[04:33] ---**
Ao was able to do it.
**[04:34] ---**
I can do it, too.
**[04:42] ---**
The flower... It bloomed.
**[05:10] ---**
Sheesh! Don't scare me like that!
**[05:13] ---**
Are you pretending to go diving in the bathtub?
**[05:16] ---**
Or rather, why are you using
the bathtub in *my* room?
**[05:20] ---**
Say, Fleur...
**[05:22] ---**
If you could live forever under the sea
with the dolphins, what would you do?
**[05:27] ---**
With dolphins?
**[05:29] ---**
It sounds like fun, but I'd
probably come back before long.
**[05:33] ---**
The life we know is on land, after all.
**[05:37] ---**
That's the US version.
**[05:39] ---**
Are you talking about manga again?
**[05:42] ---**
The ending that Ao chose would be
the European version, you know?
**[05:45] ---**
He's never coming back to
the world of people ever again.
**[05:48] ---**
You're making no sense.
**[05:49] ---**
The deep store of knowledge you
otaku have is such self-righteous crap.
**[05:52] ---**
Do not comprehend... Huh?
**[05:56] ---**
Hey, I'll wash that for you!
**[05:58] ---**
H-Hey, stop that!
**[05:59] ---**
--Come on! It's okay!
--No. Hey, Elena! I said, stop!
**[06:03] ---**
Stop it!
**[06:06] ---**
I've told you before that I hate stuff like this.
**[06:22] ---**
This is...
**[06:23] ---**
I'd like you to look through the final contract.
**[06:28] ---**
Whoa...
**[06:30] ---**
Makes you sick, doesn't it?
**[06:31] ---**
You didn't go through anything
like this with Generation Bleu?
**[06:36] ---**
That's how crafty Christophe Blanc is.
**[06:40] ---**
To you guys and to the world,
**[06:42] ---**
he presented the company as an
international rescue organization,
**[06:44] ---**
but secretly, he possessed a weapon
capable of wide-area damage.
**[06:47] ---**
That's...
**[06:49] ---**
Only the Allied Forces are
capable of managing that weapon.
**[06:52] ---**
You and the Nirvash will be under
the command of the Allied Forces.
**[06:55] ---**
Does that work for you?
**[07:05] ---**
Hey!
**[07:10] ---**
But you know, you really do look a lot like her.
**[07:13] ---**
What?
**[07:16] ---**
You don't mean... my mother?
**[07:19] ---**
Of course.
**[07:21] ---**
Your mother was one of us, too, after all.
**[07:25] ---**
Huh? What?
**[07:29] ---**
It was 13 years ago.
**[07:32] ---**
Your mother suddenly appeared in
this world, along with the Mark I.
**[07:36] ---**
We tracked it down immediately,
but when we found it,
**[07:40] ---**
there was no sign of her in the Mark I.
**[07:44] ---**
And then, 10 years ago,
**[07:46] ---**
the largest Scub Burst in history
occurred off the coast of Okinawa.
**[07:49] ---**
In order to resolve that situation,
**[07:50] ---**
we needed someone who
could operate the Mark I.
**[07:53] ---**
And on Iwato Island, we found
your mother, living with you.
**[07:58] ---**
She readily agreed to do it,
**[08:00] ---**
and she fought with us.
**[08:05] ---**
My mom...?
**[08:06] ---**
Now, the UN has summoned Christophe Blanc,
**[08:10] ---**
and they're scheduled to hear his
explanation for hiding the Quartz.
**[08:13] ---**
But if that weapon becomes the
property of the Allied Forces,
**[08:17] ---**
there should be no further problems.
**[08:21] ---**
If you have no objections with this draft,
**[08:24] ---**
I'll have them draw up the official documents.
**[08:27] ---**
Starting tomorrow, you'll be one of us!
**[08:32] ---**
You and the Nirvash will be under
the command of the Allied Forces.
**[08:35] ---**
Does that work for you?
**[08:40] ---**
Send this to those bastards.
**[08:43] ---**
Babysitting is such a pain.
**[09:06] ---**
On a US carrier... He should be in
the waters off San Diego about now.
**[09:10] ---**
Are you running some simulation?
**[09:12] ---**
A plan to rescue Ao.
**[09:14] ---**
But up against Eisenhowers,
even our IFOs are just evenly matched.
**[09:18] ---**
And in terms of numbers,
I'm sure it'll be difficult.
**[09:21] ---**
We've got financial backing from
an American company anyway.
**[09:24] ---**
If we mounted an assault,
they'd never let us get away with it.
**[09:27] ---**
But I mean...
**[09:29] ---**
Seriously, what's Ao thinking?
**[09:52] ---**
Is that you, Ao?
**[09:53] ---**
Chief.
**[09:55] ---**
Um, I know I left on my own
without saying anything...
**[09:59] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[10:01] ---**
I've seen the video they sent.
**[10:03] ---**
Um, I...
**[10:06] ---**
What is it?
**[10:08] ---**
I really did something terrible.
**[10:11] ---**
The way things are going,
**[10:13] ---**
I might end up doing things that
are even more impossible to fix.
**[10:17] ---**
That's why...
**[10:19] ---**
...it's better that I'm not with the company...
**[10:21] ---**
Do you have no faith in us?!
**[10:35] ---**
Damn it!
**[10:38] ---**
What else does he think I should've done?
**[10:41] ---**
With the gun there, bad things
would happen to the company.
**[10:44] ---**
But... But... I can't wash my hands of that thing.
**[10:48] ---**
I have to think of Anma, too.
**[10:50] ---**
There's no other way!
**[11:15] ---**
Fleur?
**[11:17] ---**
Ao said he's not coming back.
**[11:21] ---**
Why?
**[11:23] ---**
Why? I don't know.
**[11:26] ---**
That kid's probably got his own reasons.
**[11:29] ---**
He's been acting weird since
Operation Polaris anyway.
**[11:31] ---**
Come on, let's forget about him and we can...
**[11:36] ---**
You know, Fleur, did you
try to find out the truth?
**[11:39] ---**
What?
**[11:43] ---**
You're always like this!
**[11:45] ---**
Are you afraid to ask?
**[11:46] ---**
Or do you think you're being
kind by pretending not to notice?
**[11:50] ---**
What are you saying...?
**[11:51] ---**
The same goes for your issues
with your father. And the accident.
**[11:54] ---**
And what's going on with me,
right before your eyes!
**[11:58] ---**
Elena, that's...
**[12:07] ---**
This grave...
**[12:09] ---**
Why didn't you ask me about it?
**[12:11] ---**
You know it's been bothering you.
**[12:13] ---**
That's because...
**[12:14] ---**
You never want to know anything!
**[12:16] ---**
I killed Miller!
**[12:19] ---**
I killed that singer and I became Miller!
**[12:22] ---**
Because the real me doesn't exist anywhere!
**[12:45] ---**
I dunno...
**[12:47] ---**
I thought we were supposed
to have saved the world.
**[12:53] ---**
What's he looking so happy about?
**[12:57] ---**
Oh?
**[13:04] ---**
Does the Gazelle Agency
handle jokes now, too?
**[13:07] ---**
Jokes? I'm serious. About our future.
**[13:11] ---**
This had better be something urgent.
**[13:14] ---**
We're about to be interrogated on the
issue of the Quartz. Just thinking about it--
**[13:18] ---**
Are you really sure about leaving
things with Ao the way they are?
**[13:22] ---**
I know the US is aggressively
pushing things forward.
**[13:26] ---**
But our enemy isn't the US.
**[13:29] ---**
That's Stanley's opinion, right?
**[13:31] ---**
What do *you* think?
**[13:35] ---**
Hallström.
**[13:37] ---**
Looks like it's almost time.
**[13:42] ---**
Oh, hey. What's up?
**[13:45] ---**
I...
**[13:47] ---**
If you don't mind, I'd like
to talk to you in private.
**[13:49] ---**
Oh, we'll get out of your hair.
**[13:52] ---**
She wants you to comfort her
about something. You get it, right?
**[13:57] ---**
I don't mind, but I might be
getting a call from Rebecka, so...
**[14:01] ---**
Gazelle...
**[14:03] ---**
I mean, even just hearing her
voice is the most awesome--
**[14:45] ---**
E-Elena...
**[14:50] ---**
You're worried about a little thing like this?
**[14:54] ---**
Your breasts will come in fine, you know.
**[14:56] ---**
Huh?
**[15:00] ---**
You dummy.
**[15:06] ---**
It's not that I don't want to know. But...
**[15:10] ---**
Fleur!
**[15:12] ---**
Sorry to catch you when
you're changing, but it's Elena!
**[15:16] ---**
I told you, I'm going!
**[15:19] ---**
No matter how you do it,
with the trapars the Kyrie can carry,
**[15:21] ---**
you'll never make it to the US! Stop this!
**[15:23] ---**
I don't care! Just hurry up and open the gate!
**[15:31] ---**
What?!
**[15:34] ---**
Elena, what are you doing?!
**[15:38] ---**
I've made up my mind.
**[15:39] ---**
I'm going to go get Ao.
**[15:42] ---**
What are you saying?! I told you that Ao--
**[15:44] ---**
If he's not coming back...
**[15:48] ---**
...then I just have to *bring* him back!
**[15:49] ---**
Huh?! Do you even get it?!
**[15:51] ---**
Ao is on a US carrier right now!
**[16:01] ---**
Just leave me alone!
**[16:04] ---**
You don't want to know, right?!
**[16:06] ---**
I...
**[16:08] ---**
...didn't ask because you were my friend.
**[16:10] ---**
Isn't that how it was for you, too?!
**[16:12] ---**
No! I wanted you to tell me!
**[16:18] ---**
Fleur. Elena. Can you hear me?
**[16:21] ---**
Go get Ao.
**[16:23] ---**
Wha--?!
**[16:26] ---**
You want to know how Ao really feels, right?
**[16:29] ---**
Then go ask him in person.
**[16:32] ---**
The way you two are right now,
you can make the flight.
**[16:35] ---**
I'm going.
**[16:40] ---**
I...
**[16:48] ---**
You're 13 years old now.
**[16:50] ---**
You have to think about things as
a man and as a member of society,
**[16:54] ---**
and carry out your responsibilities.
**[16:57] ---**
Mr. Tanaka...
**[16:58] ---**
The Quartz Gun belongs to the world.
**[17:01] ---**
It shouldn't be in the hands of an individual.
**[17:05] ---**
I...
**[17:08] ---**
Precautionary warning. Two IFOs approaching.
**[17:11] ---**
What?
**[17:12] ---**
I repeat. Two IFOs.
**[17:38] ---**
It locked on to us?!
**[17:46] ---**
We'll be targeted if we
take off without precautions!
**[17:52] ---**
What's going on?
**[17:53] ---**
Ao, come out!
**[17:55] ---**
If you don't come out,
**[17:57] ---**
we'll get the stuff you have
hidden under your mattress--
**[17:59] ---**
Hey, what's the point in threatening him?!
**[18:07] ---**
F-Fleur! And Elena!
**[18:09] ---**
Ao, tell us!
**[18:11] ---**
Fleur, you have to get back quick.
**[18:14] ---**
You're going to get yelled at by the CEO!
**[18:16] ---**
Don't you want to come back, Ao?
Or do you want to stay here forever?
**[18:20] ---**
That's what we came to ask you.
**[18:22] ---**
Please, Ao, answer me!
**[18:24] ---**
What are you saying?!
**[18:25] ---**
I'm doing this for the
company and for everyone...
**[18:28] ---**
Ao, we don't care about the reasons!
Tell us how you feel!
**[18:33] ---**
Elena...
**[18:36] ---**
I...
**[18:39] ---**
The truth is, I want to go back.
**[18:43] ---**
I want to be with all of you guys!
**[18:46] ---**
Right!
**[18:51] ---**
See? He's saying that he wants to go back!
**[18:53] ---**
I'm the one who said it first.
**[18:56] ---**
Good enough friends to
take the gloves off, huh?
**[18:58] ---**
Wrong!
**[19:04] ---**
Is that what you did with Anma, too?
**[19:06] ---**
Generation Bleu is finished already.
**[19:11] ---**
Even so...
**[19:13] ---**
Even so, I'm okay with that.
**[19:24] ---**
Fleur! Elena! Let's go!
**[19:25] ---**
--Okay!
--Yeah!
**[19:57] ---**
No way! The Third Engine isn't running?!
**[20:00] ---**
It was running on the power
of love until just earlier, though.
**[20:03] ---**
Like you're any different!
**[20:04] ---**
Ooh, so you admit it's true?
**[20:06] ---**
At this rate, we'll run out
of fuel in no time and...
**[20:09] ---**
Want me to carry the two of you back?
**[20:11] ---**
No way! Never!
**[20:18] ---**
Chief...
**[20:27] ---**
There are reports that Generation
Bleu launched a surprise attack
**[20:30] ---**
against the Ronald Reagan,
a US Navy carrier. Are they true?
**[20:33] ---**
They're true.
**[20:34] ---**
Given this turn of events,
**[20:35] ---**
the questioning of Christophe Blanc
by the UN has been canceled.
**[20:41] ---**
The US now deems Generation
Bleu a terrorist organization,
**[20:45] ---**
and we will demand that
the UN adopt a resolution
**[20:47] ---**
to enact sanctions against them,
including the use of military force!
**[20:58] ---**
That was some stunt.
**[20:59] ---**
I never imagined that Fleur
would take back Ao for us.
**[21:04] ---**
You think this is a laughing matter?!
**[21:06] ---**
Now that you've raised your
hand against the US military,
**[21:08] ---**
we at Big Blue World can't
continue to support you.
**[21:16] ---**
Blanc.
**[21:17] ---**
It's not too late. Start complying
with the wishes of the main office.
**[21:22] ---**
Ivica once said...
**[21:25] ---**
...that perhaps the ones playing
the pipe and leading the way...
**[21:29] ---**
...are not us, but the children.
**[21:33] ---**
I'm certain of it now, too.
**[21:43] ---**
What's going on? We're not
being punished at all...?
**[21:50] ---**
Gazelle?
**[21:51] ---**
I'm the one who set things up
so you would bring Ao back.
**[21:55] ---**
What?
**[21:59] ---**
What do you mean?
**[22:01] ---**
The era when we just had
to fight the Secrets is over.
**[22:05] ---**
No, it's probably been over for a long time now.
**[22:08] ---**
Since the day Eureka appeared.
**[22:11] ---**
That's why I egged you on,
knowing things would turn out this way.
**[22:15] ---**
What's that supposed to mean?!
**[22:18] ---**
We've crossed a line.
**[22:27] ---**
It's beginning.
**[22:28] ---**
Starting today, the world is our enemy.
**[22:34] ---**
"To Be Continued"
**[22:35] ---**
To be continued.
**[22:38] ---**
*This uncertain world of mine now*
**[22:43] ---**
*Begins to change and expand
in the blink of an eye*
**[23:00] ---**
*Where is the rest of the dream
that I found that day?*
**[23:06] ---**
*Just watch, I'll find it soon enough*
**[23:12] ---**
*Even now, I alone remember*
**[23:17] ---**
*The familiar old warmth*
**[23:22] ---**
*So, shall I get going now?*
**[23:27] ---**
*The fate awaiting me*
**[23:33] ---**
*Frightened and paralyzed me*
**[23:38] ---**
*To never be lost ever again*
**[23:44] ---**
*I'll grow stronger*
**[23:47] ---**
*Even the past I can never return to*
**[23:52] ---**
*I'll build upon, starting tomorrow*
**[23:58] ---**
*That's what I'll do to overcome it all*
**[24:03] ---**
*And that's how I'll become me*
**[24:08] ---**
"Preview"
**[24:12] ---**
Next time on *Eureka Seven AO*.
**[24:14] ---**
The things they thought they
had believed in are overturned,
**[24:16] ---**
and Generation Bleu comes to be
deemed the enemy of the world.
**[24:20] ---**
What will they choose to protect
and who will they choose to fight?
**[24:23] ---**
As he faces the threat closing in on them,
**[24:25] ---**
Ao learns of the resolve that each of them feels.
**[24:28] ---**
*Eureka Seven AO*, Episode 19.
**[24:33] ---**
Hear the cry of the children of the stars.
