[00:28] ---
    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
[01:43] ---
    I'd known all along...
[01:46] ---
    That the things I love, I love because
    they will always be out of reach.
[02:04] ---
    How far... How far...
[02:08] ---
    No matter how far I go,
    I'm still under the same sky.
[02:15] ---
    What's going on?!
[02:16] ---
    Where's the attack coming from?!
[02:18] ---
    This world is wrong.
[02:26] ---
    Truth...
[02:28] ---
    Could it be that you've been
    inside the Abe all this time?
[02:32] ---
    I exist in various places.
[02:35] ---
    But this world is not mine.
[02:39] ---
    You're just a Secret.
[02:42] ---
    I came from a faraway place.
[02:45] ---
    In that place, there are no Scub Corals.
    Nor are there Secrets.
[02:50] ---
    Man produces energy and
    brightly illuminates all.
[03:03] ---
    Shoot him! Shoot him!
[03:09] ---
    Did we get him?
[03:30] ---
    And... happily ever after.
[03:33] ---
    Now, what should I say when I
    report back to Colonel Tanaka?
[03:37] ---
    Do something! Quick!
[03:39] ---
    What?! Me?! Pardon me, sir!
[03:45] ---
    The Abe...
[03:49] ---
    What's that? Where'd he come from?!
[03:50] ---
    Truth! How?!
[03:52] ---
    He's alive?!
[04:04] ---
    Maggie! Elena! Run!
[04:10] ---
    Maggie!
[04:10] ---
    Elena!
[04:18] ---
    Is this what you want?!
[04:32] ---
    My dad said at the end...
[04:34] ---
    ...that Truth is a Secret.
[04:36] ---
    Wasn't there a period of time
[04:38] ---
    when your country was in a
    collaborative relationship with Truth?
[04:41] ---
    That was something Nakamura
    of the Ministry of Self-Defense
[04:44] ---
    was doing arbitrarily on his own.
[04:46] ---
    That stuff doesn't matter.
[04:48] ---
    What's Truth's objective?
[04:50] ---
    He is a being who was once a Secret.
[04:54] ---
    Really?
[04:56] ---
    What about him being Johansson's son?
[04:59] ---
    Johansson...
[05:00] ---
    However, he is now ill.
[05:09] ---
    Truth, what in the world
    is it that you want to do?!
[05:15] ---
    Are you on Japan's side?
[05:17] ---
    If so, we're on the same side now.
[05:20] ---
    Are you on the Secrets' side?
[05:22] ---
    But that's also us...
[05:23] ---
    But what you did to the CEO...!
[05:26] ---
    What is it?!
[05:28] ---
    You don't make any sense!
[05:32] ---
    I'm your enemy.
[05:34] ---
    Oh, yeah?!
[05:42] ---
    What the...?
[05:51] ---
    Truth is cloaked in a layer of trapars that
    is of a higher concentration than normal.
[05:55] ---
    You could say he is
    surrounded by a trapar storm.
[05:58] ---
    Or heavy swells, if you like.
[06:00] ---
    They cannot be ridden.
[06:02] ---
    But Ao is capable of seeing the trapar waves.
[06:05] ---
    It will be impossible with his Nirvash.
[06:08] ---
    That thing has no soul.
[06:10] ---
    A soul... in a machine?
[06:18] ---
    What's going on?
[06:19] ---
    I've got no control...
[06:21] ---
    Elena!
[06:24] ---
    It's no use.
    I can't read the flow of the trapars!
[06:36] ---
    "Iwato Trapar Industry"
[06:40] ---
    Naru?
[06:41] ---
    Miss Naru... What's going on?
[06:44] ---
    Could it be her health, after all?
[06:49] ---
    I thought this Coral plant
    hadn't become active again...
[07:07] ---
    The giant...
[07:34] ---
    That's right. The Quartz doesn't matter.
[07:37] ---
    We just have to destroy the Scub Corals.
[07:40] ---
    That's all we have to do, Truth.
[07:44] ---
    Calculate his course.
[07:46] ---
    We'll be there to greet him.
[07:59] ---
    He's...
[08:01] ---
    Does that mean that the Scub Corals
    are connected to each other?
[08:04] ---
    Or is it, after all, because Ao is Eureka's child?
[08:19] ---
    Hey, aren't you hungry?
[08:22] ---
    What?
[08:39] ---
    We are grateful for your help
    with the rescue operation!
[08:41] ---
    It was nothing.
    We will be praying for your safe return.
[08:44] ---
    I don't understand the meaning of this report!
[08:46] ---
    What's happened to our IFO pilots?!
[08:54] ---
    Um...
[08:55] ---
    It is with much embarrassment,
    but I have returned!
[08:58] ---
    Or something...?
[08:59] ---
    The acting CEO approved your reinstatement.
[09:02] ---
    You'll hear no words from me.
[09:03] ---
    Where's Ao?
[09:04] ---
    It seems he popped up on Iwato Island.
[09:07] ---
    Iwato Island...
[09:09] ---
    That's where his girlfriend is.
[09:10] ---
    Not his girlfriend. He said she was
    just a childhood friend, remember?
[09:26] ---
    Truth is headed for the Coral plant in Okinawa.
[09:30] ---
    The world's largest Quartz...
[09:32] ---
    So it means that Truth really is a Secret.
[09:36] ---
    No, that is not true.
[09:50] ---
    Whoa, whoa, whoa!
    What the heck did you do?! Hey!
[09:53] ---
    Hey there, Miss Elena.
[09:55] ---
    What do you think of the new part?
[09:57] ---
    Take it off! Take this thing off right now!
[09:59] ---
    Or what?! Are we finally
    resorting to combining three-way
[10:02] ---
    with the Nirvash and the Alleluia?!
    Like with the face of a lion
[10:04] ---
    --or tiger on the chest?!
    --Truth is ill.
[10:07] ---
    He is no longer a Secret.
[10:09] ---
    He has not been for ten years.
[10:11] ---
    Ignore me, will you?!
[10:12] ---
    You say he's ill...
[10:14] ---
    But your kind is like white blood
    cells that automatically appear
[10:18] ---
    when foreign objects invade
    this universe, right?
[10:22] ---
    What if he were taken in
    by the foreign body instead?
[10:28] ---
    A Coral Carrier...
[10:29] ---
    What?
[10:31] ---
    The Allied Forces were cultivating pilots
[10:34] ---
    who had been parasitized by the Scub Corals.
[10:37] ---
    Those cases that Mom Hannah
    had reported before?
[10:40] ---
    Damn Stanley! He must've
    caught on to it long before!
[10:44] ---
    Like ocean coral, Scub Corals are
    collectives of microscopic organisms.
[10:48] ---
    When they encounter intelligent life,
[10:50] ---
    they occasionally assimilate with the
    target in an attempt to make contact.
[10:55] ---
    Assimilate?
[10:57] ---
    So they make people not-human?
[10:59] ---
    Ten years ago, Truth appeared
    in order to trigger a fusion blast.
[11:08] ---
    When the Quartz suddenly
    disappeared right before his eyes,
[11:10] ---
    the Secret was thrown into confusion.
[11:13] ---
    Because he had appeared in
    order to annihilate the Quartz,
[11:17] ---
    and yet, he no longer had an objective.
[11:20] ---
    Left alone, he would have continued
    to go on a rampage forever.
[11:25] ---
    The Scub Coral became one with the Secret
[11:28] ---
    and made it so that the
    Secret could go on living.
[11:32] ---
    That's why that child thinks
[11:34] ---
    the true world is a place where
    Scub Corals don't appear.
[11:38] ---
    Because that's what he wanted to make.
[11:53] ---
    There's no time to be doing this.
[11:55] ---
    Don't fight against Truth.
[11:57] ---
    What could they be talking about?
[11:59] ---
    The folks Naru keeps company with
[12:02] ---
    are dangerous elements who
    are possessed by the Scubs.
[12:04] ---
    Naru is just a little sick!
[12:06] ---
    The folks downstairs said it.
[12:09] ---
    That Naru's disease is spreading.
[12:11] ---
    The Scubs are contagious for people.
[12:14] ---
    Before, you treated Ao like a foreigner.
[12:17] ---
    And now Naru?!
[12:18] ---
    But it's true, isn't it?
[12:20] ---
    People who've been infected by the Scubs
[12:23] ---
    have surrounded the Coral plant.
[12:25] ---
    "Free Scubs" "No Plants!"
[12:25] ---
    Stuff about being able to hear the voice of the Scubs...
[12:28] ---
    It's creepy.
[12:29] ---
    So you find differences between you and them.
[12:33] ---
    Drawing that line. Is that
    what you call independence?
[12:40] ---
    Naru, you know, you...
[12:43] ---
    What is it?
[12:44] ---
    No, so, like...
[12:46] ---
    You've changed, you know?
[12:49] ---
    And you've got stuff... growing...
[12:53] ---
    These?
[12:55] ---
    Fashion accessories?
[12:57] ---
    Is that what Truth prefers or something?
[13:00] ---
    I mean, they say girls change how they
    dress and stuff depending on the guy, so...
[13:06] ---
    If you love Truth...
[13:10] ---
    Huh?
[13:12] ---
    Is that what you've been thinking all this time?!
[13:15] ---
    What?
[13:16] ---
    That's how you thought of me?!
[13:19] ---
    Huh? Uh...
[13:21] ---
    So, like, I told you that I met my anma, right?
[13:25] ---
    And it's possible that I might've had a big sis.
[13:28] ---
    So, then, you've been
    protecting me since I was little.
[13:34] ---
    I started thinking maybe you
    were kind of like my big sis...
[13:37] ---
    Big sis?
[13:39] ---
    Big sis?!
[13:40] ---
    Wh-What are you so mad about?
[13:42] ---
    Oh, Mom Hannah.
[13:44] ---
    Mom?! Now it's "Mom"?!
[13:46] ---
    No, that's not what I said.
[13:48] ---
    Ao, we're going after Truth.
[13:51] ---
    A joint operation with the Triton.
[13:52] ---
    What? But I thought Team Harlequin
    had turned against us...
[13:58] ---
    We had to say that then, or it
    would've affected a lot of things...
[14:01] ---
    Ao, what will you do?
[14:03] ---
    I-I'm coming, of course!
[14:04] ---
    Wait, Ao.
[14:06] ---
    You were born to Scub Corals and humans.
[14:09] ---
    Truth is the same, isn't he?
[14:28] ---
    This doesn't make sense.
[14:30] ---
    Such a thing is impossible.
[14:32] ---
    I thought Big Blue World guaranteed
    that it was absolutely safe!
[14:36] ---
    No matter what experiments we conducted,
[14:38] ---
    the Coral Carriers showed no abnormalities.
[14:41] ---
    This is because of Truth.
[14:43] ---
    What did that bastard do?!
[14:45] ---
    According to observations,
[14:47] ---
    the IFO that Blanc called the Canon,
    which Truth has fused with,
[14:52] ---
    creates a space with extremely high
    trapar concentrations around itself.
[14:56] ---
    When trapar concentrations get high,
[14:58] ---
    things run amok inside the Coral Carriers
[15:00] ---
    and the Scub kills its host.
[15:03] ---
    No...
[15:05] ---
    In Okinawa,
[15:06] ---
    there should be many Coral Carriers
    who are unaware of their condition.
[15:09] ---
    Like you.
[15:11] ---
    With the approach of
    Truth's IFO, they will all die.
[15:16] ---
    That's a lie!
[15:17] ---
    The Scubs enter into our bodies to
    change us humans for the better!
[15:23] ---
    Naru...
[15:25] ---
    For the longest time, I thought I was sick.
[15:28] ---
    But I wasn't.
[15:30] ---
    The Scub Corals had planted an
    invisible set of wings inside me.
[15:36] ---
    The world would fill
    with trapars and, someday,
[15:40] ---
    I would be on an equal footing
    with you, Ao. Wings to give me that...
[15:47] ---
    Humans and Scub Corals are different.
[15:53] ---
    So, a line will be drawn...
[15:56] ---
    You're not a Carrier,
[15:57] ---
    but there's no guarantee that it
    won't affect your body, too, Ao.
[16:04] ---
    No...
[16:05] ---
    Leave it to Ivica's team and us.
[16:08] ---
    The Secrets are saying that they'll help us, too.
[16:12] ---
    Just you watch. We'll stop them at all costs.
[16:36] ---
    Naru, I guess you hadn't
    changed in all this time.
[16:40] ---
    What are you talking about?
[16:42] ---
    You protected me from the people
    who treated me like a foreigner.
[16:46] ---
    If the world became filled with Scub Corals,
[16:50] ---
    no one would think I was special anymore.
[16:55] ---
    In that case, you know, right?
[16:57] ---
    That I haven't changed either?
[17:04] ---
    I have to go.
[17:08] ---
    You can't win against Truth.
[17:10] ---
    Because your Nirvash has no Archetype.
[17:14] ---
    Arche... What's that?
[17:17] ---
    Not "pork," right?
[17:19] ---
    Dummy.
[17:21] ---
    I wonder if they've smooched yet.
[17:23] ---
    Will they, I wonder?
[17:29] ---
    A special alert has been issued.
[17:31] ---
    I repeat, the Okinawan government
    has issued a special alert.
[17:36] ---
    Please follow the instructions of
    the Allied Forces and the police
[17:39] ---
    and evacuate immediately.
[17:41] ---
    If you are operating any FPs
    or other trapar engines,
[17:44] ---
    please shut them down for now.
[17:47] ---
    I repeat, the Okinawan government
    has issued a special alert...
[17:50] ---
    Come.
[17:51] ---
    Come, Truth.
[17:54] ---
    Ten years ago,
[17:55] ---
    the Japanese government thought
    trapar mining was dangerous
[17:59] ---
    and tried to close down
    the Scub Coral in Okinawa
[18:01] ---
    by putting it under the direct
    control of the Cabinet Office.
[18:04] ---
    But Okinawa rebelled and,
    with the help of the US military,
[18:07] ---
    forcefully won their independence.
[18:10] ---
    And look where that got them.
[18:18] ---
    This is the miserable end that
    you people chose for yourselves.
[18:24] ---
    Is this not wrong?
[18:33] ---
    IFOs...
[18:35] ---
    Team Harlequin!
[18:43] ---
    Liu. Lerato. Rajkumar.
    Don't let him get any farther.
[18:46] ---
    He may be planning to trigger a fusion blast.
[18:48] ---
    I guess we can't say that it'd be
    convenient if he blows himself up.
[18:52] ---
    If the explosion happens here,
[18:54] ---
    they say that the impact will be felt
    from Okinawa to Taiwan, after all.
[18:57] ---
    Truth made a comeback from the
    depths of Generation Bleu, too.
[19:00] ---
    Even if he triggers a fusion blast,
[19:02] ---
    maybe it's possible for him to use
    his Scub Coral powers to regenerate.
[19:07] ---
    If that's true...
[19:08] ---
    The only thing left for us is to have faith in him.
[19:37] ---
    Okay, give him a good talking-to, Daddy!
[19:39] ---
    Not funny!
[19:41] ---
    No matter how the disease eats at you,
[19:43] ---
    or how you change your appearance,
[19:45] ---
    it does not change the fact
    that you are a Secret.
[19:50] ---
    You say... that I am a Secret?
[19:54] ---
    Are you saying that you are not?
[19:55] ---
    No, I'm not.
[19:57] ---
    I have no interest in such things as Scub Corals.
[20:01] ---
    What I want to destroy is this world.
[20:05] ---
    In that case, are you a Scub Coral
    that has invaded this world?
[20:09] ---
    No, I'm nothing of the sort.
[20:11] ---
    Then are you human? The son of Johansson?
[20:16] ---
    No. No. No.
[20:20] ---
    I'm not anyone.
[20:23] ---
    Then what do you claim to be?
[20:38] ---
    The body blow sure hurt.
[20:40] ---
    Elena, get back!
[20:42] ---
    I can't quite do that.
[20:45] ---
    Since it's come to this...
[20:48] ---
    Ready the main guns!
[20:50] ---
    Chief!
[21:02] ---
    Truth, you...
[21:05] ---
    You alone...
[21:07] ---
    I'm not anyone.
[21:11] ---
    Just the one and only Truth!
[22:16] ---
    So this place is already done for, too.
[22:25] ---
    No matter how far I go, it's the same.
[22:31] ---
    The Scub Corals encountered
    the defense mechanism,
[22:34] ---
    and this planet perished.
[22:46] ---
    Seven Light Pillars!
[22:48] ---
    A Seven Swell!
[22:51] ---
    Nirvash!
[23:11] ---
    We're going, Nirvash.
[23:13] ---
    Eureka is calling to us.
[23:20] ---
    It'll end.
[23:21] ---
    With this, we'll be able to end it all.
[23:25] ---
    Right, Eureka?
[24:07] ---
    "Preview"
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Eureka Seven AO.
[24:14] ---
    Truth is consumed by what is true.
[24:17] ---
    When his grief is liberated in full,
    Ao, in turn, is tormented by reality.
[24:22] ---
    And there appears the arbitrator of the world.
[24:24] ---
    But just who is he?
[24:27] ---
    Eureka Seven AO, Episode 23.
[24:33] ---
    Hear the cry of the children of the stars.
[24:35] ---
