[02:02] ---
    Intelligence Officer Nakamura,
    have you still not given up?
[02:07] ---
    Four months ago, you failed in your
    attempt to procure the Mark I.
[02:11] ---
    And the IFO Defense Project
    is set to be scrapped as well.
[02:15] ---
    But our country is internationally isolated
[02:18] ---
    and relations with the Allied Nations
    and Okinawa are touch-and-go.
[02:21] ---
    If we can get our hands on
    an absolute means of defense,
[02:24] ---
    we've got a chance to become
    the world's greatest financial nation.
[02:29] ---
    You know, Nakamura,
[02:32] ---
    it's because we've avoided such warlike matters
[02:35] ---
    that Japan has managed to make it this far.
[02:39] ---
    There's no need to muddy the waters
[02:41] ---
    by awkwardly stirring up military uncertainty.
[02:44] ---
    And our people have an aversion
[02:47] ---
    to trapars and Scub things or whatever, after all.
[02:50] ---
    So the Ministry of Finance absolutely
    refuses to budget for this project.
[02:54] ---
    Is that what you're saying?
[02:58] ---
    I would kindly ask that you leave.
[03:02] ---
    "Ministry of Self Defense"
[03:08] ---
    So they didn't go for it.
[03:10] ---
    They plan to maintain this
    cowardly peace until they die!
[03:13] ---
    They're not thinking about the
    future of this country at all!
[03:16] ---
    Since it's come to this,
    we'll just have to get results
[03:18] ---
    and make them approve it after the fact.
[03:21] ---
    I'll send you the data that
    the Firecracker people sent me.
[03:30] ---
    Can we trust them?
[03:33] ---
    They're so-called cyberterrorists, aren't they?
[03:36] ---
    In many ways, isn't it unwise for a
    government entity to contact them?
[03:39] ---
    Firecracker probably feels sympathetic
[03:41] ---
    because the world has placed Japan
    under an intelligence blockade.
[03:52] ---
    This is data the US military
    has long refused to disclose.
[03:57] ---
    How did they...?
[03:58] ---
    At this point, I'm not going
    to question their methods.
[04:01] ---
    It's something our generation needs...
[04:04] ---
    ...in order to shatter this country this one time.
[04:38] ---
    Come on. Training, training!
[04:40] ---
    How long are you going to goof off for?
[04:42] ---
    This is perfectly good training, too.
[04:45] ---
    Why don't you join us, Ao?
[04:46] ---
    Sheesh.
[04:48] ---
    Seriously, if we don't train for real...
[04:50] ---
    Yes, yes, of course.
[04:52] ---
    You want to hurry up and get
    your girlfriend back, right?
[04:56] ---
    It's not like she's my girlfriend.
[04:59] ---
    Oh? Did that make you mad?
[05:03] ---
    Ao, are you a sinker?
[05:05] ---
    Did you eat some kind of weird fruit?
[05:07] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?
[05:09] ---
    Hmm, so you can't swim.
[05:12] ---
    Then I'm not going to save you,
    even if you're drowning.
[05:16] ---
    Like there's any way I don't know how to swim.
[05:21] ---
    We got intel from some bureaucrats
    in Japan's Ministry of Self Defense.
[05:25] ---
    You guys even have people
    in the Japanese government?
[05:30] ---
    There's no knowing whether
    they'll succeed or not,
[05:32] ---
    but it seems they intend to run a simulation
[05:35] ---
    that will artificially create a Scub Burst.
[05:38] ---
    And in order to maintain our global equilibrium,
[05:40] ---
    we cannot afford to risk
    Japan having a Coral plant.
[05:45] ---
    That's where Team Pied Piper,
    our company's ace task force, comes in.
[05:50] ---
    In other words, you're telling us to go
    and collect the Quartz on the sly?
[05:54] ---
    It's the same order that I
    always give you, I believe?
[05:57] ---
    Wha...!
[05:58] ---
    Hurry along.
[06:04] ---
    Well, there you have it. We're counting on you.
[06:07] ---
    I'll direct the capable staff I've sent over there
[06:09] ---
    to provide you with the details.
[06:12] ---
    Fine. I understand.
[06:20] ---
    Sightseeing!
[06:32] ---
    My mother got remarried to a Swiss national.
[06:35] ---
    My Japanese is really good, too, right?
[06:37] ---
    Except for a bit of an accent.
[06:47] ---
    So this is Japan...
[06:50] ---
    To think I, an Okinawan, would be
    coming to Japan as a foreigner...
[06:55] ---
    Immigrations here is so hidebound.
[06:58] ---
    They're practically antiquated.
[07:05] ---
    What's next?
[07:06] ---
    We take that and go east.
[07:08] ---
    "Welcome to the Chukyo Metropolis New Shinkansen
    with Service from Okayama to Hakone"
[07:09] ---
    That Shinkansen thing.
[07:18] ---
    I guess, long ago, Tokyo used
    to be on the other side of that.
[07:22] ---
    Yeah.
[07:23] ---
    The Scub Burst that happened 70 years ago
[07:26] ---
    was the finishing blow to war-torn
    Japan just after they were defeated,
[07:29] ---
    and that delayed their recovery.
[07:53] ---
    Light emission confirmed.
[07:55] ---
    Water temperature has begun to rise.
[07:57] ---
    The Damaged Quartz
    appears to have begun to fuse.
[08:03] ---
    All right! The reactivation is a success!
[08:08] ---
    Now our country will have a Coral plant.
[08:13] ---
    Reactivation is the first stage of the operation.
[08:17] ---
    Meaning, this is where things start to get good.
[08:22] ---
    They're saying the test's a success.
[08:26] ---
    Light emission confirmed.
[08:28] ---
    It matches the spectral signature of Quartz.
[08:31] ---
    We have a Scub appearance?
[08:33] ---
    Contact Team Pied Piper.
[08:46] ---
    Whee! Whee!
[08:57] ---
    How long are we going to
    be on standby out here?!
[09:00] ---
    Given the characteristics of an island nation,
[09:02] ---
    it's more advantageous to approach
    from the sea than from the air.
[09:06] ---
    Here, we are right on the border
    of Japan's contiguous zone.
[09:10] ---
    Go in any closer and we will get
    picked up by the Japan Armed Forces.
[09:13] ---
    Submarines patrolling their
    territorial waters will likely--
[09:16] ---
    It seems Japan's test met with success just now.
[09:19] ---
    If it's a Scub Burst, a Secret should...
[09:34] ---
    Appearance confirmed.
[09:40] ---
    What happened?!
[09:41] ---
    A Secret! Underwater, near the test site!
[09:45] ---
    We will now conduct an
    operation to capture the Secret.
[09:48] ---
    Check the equipment at the test site!
[09:51] ---
    Wh-What are you...
[09:53] ---
    After all, Secrets have the potential
[09:56] ---
    to be far better practical military
    weapons than some lowly IFOs.
[10:00] ---
    Not to worry. That thing will
    head for the Scub Coral.
[10:03] ---
    So, well, we should be safe over here--
[10:09] ---
    Escort vessel Kazusa has sustained
    damage to the bottom of her hull!
[10:12] ---
    A kinetic attack initiated by the Secret!
[10:16] ---
    Huh?
[10:20] ---
    Hey, now, it's not going for the bait?
[10:33] ---
    For this mission, you will be in
    the southern part of Tokyo Bay,
[10:36] ---
    near the submarine canyon that
    connects to the Sagami Trough.
[10:40] ---
    Generally, the waters of Tokyo Bay
    go no deeper than 20 meters,
[10:44] ---
    but this mission will take
    you to exceptional depths,
[10:46] ---
    as deep as 500 meters.
[10:49] ---
    And the estimated water
    pressure at those depths
[10:52] ---
    could possibly damage the IFO's manipulators
[10:54] ---
    beginning with the extremities.
[10:57] ---
    In order to avoid this, the IFOs should
    be kept in their flight configurations
[11:02] ---
    until the necessary conditions are met
[11:04] ---
    and only transform to their
    humanoid configurations
[11:06] ---
    once all conditions are met.
[11:08] ---
    Essentially, don't transform until the last minute.
[11:11] ---
    Don't be ridiculous!
[11:13] ---
    I hope our enemy is the sort
    to wait for us to morph.
[11:17] ---
    But then, why are we taking
    an underwater route?
[11:21] ---
    We could just surface and fight above the water.
[11:23] ---
    The objective of this operation is not the Secret,
[11:27] ---
    but the Scub Coral in the sea.
[11:29] ---
    What?
[11:30] ---
    Priority is being given to collecting
    the Quartz inside the Scub.
[11:33] ---
    The Secret is currently
    advancing towards the JAF base.
[11:37] ---
    We'll take this chance to infiltrate all the way
    to the Scub Coral's point of occurrence.
[11:42] ---
    After destroying the Scub,
[11:43] ---
    we'll collect the Quartz, and return to base.
[11:46] ---
    Roger.
[11:48] ---
    What is this "Quartz"?
[11:51] ---
    It's what the Secret is after--a crystalline
    body inside the Scub Coral.
[11:56] ---
    Is Quartz the stuff that
    we wound up transporting?
[11:59] ---
    Yeah. The Secrets target the Quartz.
[12:03] ---
    That's what the Generation Bleu folk think.
[12:06] ---
    And they've got the Quartz
    they extracted from the Scubs
[12:09] ---
    hoarded away somewhere at HQ, too.
[12:11] ---
    What for?
[12:12] ---
    Beats me.
[12:14] ---
    Then, does that mean collecting the Quartz
[12:16] ---
    has always been Generation Bleu's
    top priority all this time?
[12:20] ---
    It's especially a priority this time.
[12:22] ---
    In order to put a stop to
    Japan's dangerous experiments,
[12:25] ---
    we must destroy the Scub without fail.
[12:28] ---
    What about rescuing the victims?
[12:30] ---
    Stabilizing the Scub Burst
    by collecting the Quartz
[12:33] ---
    will allow us to minimize the casualties.
[12:36] ---
    What the hell?
[12:38] ---
    Ao, it's no use talking to them.
[12:40] ---
    They're people who look away when
    they don't want to see something.
[12:43] ---
    Yup, yup. War is heartless.
[12:46] ---
    We can't afford to let Japan
    gain trapar capabilities.
[12:50] ---
    As an Okinawan, you can
    understand that, can't you, Ao?
[12:54] ---
    What are you saying?!
[12:55] ---
    It doesn't matter whether
    they're Okinawan or Japanese!
[12:58] ---
    People are dying!
[13:06] ---
    Ao, stop right there!
[13:08] ---
    Alleluia and Kyrie, your top
    priority is to collect the Quartz.
[13:12] ---
    Understood.
[13:14] ---
    Roger.
[13:18] ---
    Forget eavesdropping on
    their little conversations!
[13:20] ---
    It'll be faster to barge into their base
    under the cover of this commotion!
[13:23] ---
    I get that, but chill a little!
[13:31] ---
    Cars are for old people!
[13:51] ---
    An explosion at the naval port...
[13:53] ---
    Which means...
[13:54] ---
    The Secret must be in the
    waters somewhere over there!
[14:07] ---
    That's...!
[14:09] ---
    Our Mark I!
[14:17] ---
    What's wrong? Why did you stop?
[14:25] ---
    That's my Nirvash.
[14:29] ---
    Wh-Who are you?
[14:31] ---
    I'm grateful to you for making
    good use of my present.
[14:35] ---
    Are you a member of Firecracker?
[14:38] ---
    My name is Truth.
[14:46] ---
    M-M... M-Move!
[15:38] ---
    Damn it...
[15:47] ---
    Ow, that hurt...
[15:53] ---
    You're that guy from the bathroom...
[16:05] ---
    Are you the one behind this whole incident?
[16:29] ---
    This...
[16:31] ---
    ...isn't a Scub Coral!
[16:34] ---
    Damaged Quartz...
[16:37] ---
    Why is there such a large quantity of it?
[16:39] ---
    And this light...
[16:41] ---
    They have been reactivated.
[16:43] ---
    For there to be this much
    remaining Damaged Quartz,
[16:46] ---
    which makes up the empty
    shell of a Scub Burst...
[16:48] ---
    Matching up the location, it can be inferred...
[16:51] ---
    The remains of the Scub
    Burst from 70 years ago.
[16:56] ---
    If you gather Damaged Quartz
    together in one place,
[16:59] ---
    it goes boom again.
[17:02] ---
    And when that happened,
    I thought a Secret would appear.
[17:07] ---
    I was right on the money.
[17:12] ---
    A fake Quartz...
[17:18] ---
    This wasn't your first...!
[17:24] ---
    Where is it?
[17:35] ---
    Damn it!
[17:36] ---
    This is bad. At this rate, under the
    water pressure, Nirvash will...
[17:56] ---
    Where is it?
[17:57] ---
    Where's the Secret?
[18:05] ---
    You could at least call for help!
[18:07] ---
    Fleur?
[18:12] ---
    Fleur!
[18:16] ---
    What's that guy after?
[18:21] ---
    That's...!
[18:26] ---
    I get it...
[18:27] ---
    Here goes nothing!
[18:37] ---
    What are you doing?!
[18:43] ---
    Ao, what are you...?!
[18:51] ---
    Bring it on!
[19:33] ---
    You're kidding...
[19:35] ---
    You're kidding, right?
[19:39] ---
    N-No way...
[20:05] ---
    What?
[20:23] ---
    I thought you weren't going to
    save him, even if he was drowning.
[20:27] ---
    Shut up!
[20:31] ---
    Answer me.
[20:32] ---
    Were you the one who made
    us transport that thing?
[20:36] ---
    You can't see the truth.
[20:40] ---
    The hell?!
[20:42] ---
    The truth only reveals itself
    to those who try to see it.
[21:03] ---
    Hey, how did you figure out that
    the Secret was after the trapars?
[21:08] ---
    I saw it.
[21:10] ---
    Saw it? Saw what?
[21:12] ---
    Something we can't see?
[21:14] ---
    A special power? Like the Jagan?
[21:18] ---
    I don't know, but...
[21:20] ---
    ...when I tried to see it, I saw it.
[21:23] ---
    There's no other way for me to describe it.
[21:28] ---
    You see now, don't you?
[21:30] ---
    Japan has no need of
    overwhelming military power.
[21:34] ---
    Though we may be poor,
    nothing is better than peace.
[22:11] ---
    You...
[22:13] ---
    What's the big idea? You interfered
    with my plans, but now...
[22:17] ---
    You said that you would shatter this country.
[22:20] ---
    What?
[22:22] ---
    I wonder, will you be satisfied
    with just this tiny country?
