[00:16] ---
Freezing!
[00:21] ---
Volt Weapon: deploy!
[00:30] ---
Halcyon!
[00:32] ---
Double Acceleration!
[00:36] ---
Triple Acceleration!
[00:42] ---
Quadruple Acceleration!
[01:00] ---
That's the Godspeed of the East...
[01:03] ---
She is the top-ranked third-year
here at East Genetics:
[01:09] ---
Cathy Lockharte.
[01:40] ---
If coming to a halt isn’t allowed
[01:43] ---
Then let's keep walking like this
[01:45] ---
"I want you to remember
that you're not alone"
[01:51] ---
Even if these emotions that can't be shaken
[01:54] ---
Are laughed at as weakness,
[01:57] ---
I don't care. I want to
tell you straightforwardly
[02:02] ---
Keep the faith
[02:03] ---
Because I made a promise
[02:13] ---
To live as I am
[02:22] ---
Inside that gale
[02:25] ---
Oh, true color
[02:28] ---
So that clear sky
[02:31] ---
Can be freely repainted in color
[02:37] ---
Oh, true color
[02:39] ---
There is no distinct scenery
[02:43] ---
Just don't forget
[02:48] ---
Every happy day
[03:13] ---
Satellizer!
[03:16] ---
Are you thinking of Kazuya or something?
[03:19] ---
Wh-Why would I spend all
my time thinking of Kazuya?
[03:23] ---
I was correct, was I?
[03:24] ---
Why would you be?
[03:27] ---
Right now, Kazuya is...
[03:30] ---
It's an honor!
[03:31] ---
Thank you for inviting me to East Genetics.
[03:34] ---
Thank you.
[03:36] ---
I am so grateful that you
accepted my invitation.
[03:40] ---
P-Please, I'm your junior.
[03:42] ---
You shouldn't speak so politely.
[03:45] ---
But...
[03:46] ---
She, Cathy Lockharte, is
one of the chosen Pandora.
[03:50] ---
She received Sacreds, the
Stigmata of Kazuha Aoi,
[03:56] ---
heroine of the Eighth Nova Clash.
[03:59] ---
My sister's Stigmata are... inside you?
[04:06] ---
When I heard that Kazuha Aoi's younger
brother was at West Genetics,
[04:12] ---
I knew I wanted to pay my respects.
[04:14] ---
Thank you very much.
[04:17] ---
Uh, not at all! I didn't do anything.
[04:23] ---
You're the top in your school year...
[04:26] ---
"A girl like you," you're thinking?
[04:28] ---
N-Not at all! Your Quadruple
Acceleration was incredible!
[04:32] ---
I never knew someone could move that fast!
[04:34] ---
And you got two Nova!
[04:36] ---
That would never happen in an actual fight.
[04:40] ---
There have been no previous examples
[04:43] ---
of multiple Nova appearing at once.
[04:45] ---
Oh. Oh, yes.
[04:47] ---
Also, I plan on retiring.
[04:55] ---
You're not going to become a fourth-year
[04:57] ---
and join the reserve forces of
Chevalier, the anti-Nova organization?
[05:02] ---
I would like to give the Sacreds to
someone fitting and then leave here.
[05:09] ---
But why?
[05:10] ---
I have... another goal.
[05:14] ---
Goal?
[05:17] ---
I want to be a novelist.
[05:20] ---
What did you just say?
[05:22] ---
I want to be a novelist.
[05:24] ---
Sorry?
[05:26] ---
I want to be a novelist!
[05:33] ---
Of course, I think that facing
the grave danger the Nova pose
[05:36] ---
is extremely important.
[05:39] ---
However... it's been my
dream since I was young.
[05:46] ---
Is that strange?
[05:50] ---
It's strange, isn't it?
[05:52] ---
It's a wonderful dream.
[05:56] ---
I look forward to the day I
can read one of your novels.
[06:06] ---
Okay!
[06:14] ---
And your decision? It hasn't changed?
[06:20] ---
I'm very sorry, Miss Milena.
[06:26] ---
Well... A novelist, huh?
[06:30] ---
It's a shame.
[06:32] ---
She is a unique talent, on
par even with your sister.
[06:40] ---
Your sister Kazuha Aoi had
20 Stigmata in her body.
[06:47] ---
She was the Heroine Pandora, able to
make abstract high-end skills a reality.
[06:52] ---
Following your sister Kazuha Aoi's death,
[06:54] ---
Cathy Lockharte received some of her Sacreds.
[06:57] ---
She was a rare Pandora, with
a 90% compatibility rate.
[07:02] ---
In all the Genetics spread across the globe,
[07:05] ---
no one else has shown such
a degree of compatibility.
[07:12] ---
We thought you would be one of
those to lead the Pandora...
[07:18] ---
To lead Chevalier.
[07:20] ---
I am not worthy.
[07:25] ---
Even entering Genetics was for
my father, who is in politics.
[07:30] ---
If he hadn't wanted to
say that I had completed
[07:34] ---
the basic three-year curriculum,
then I would never have...
[07:42] ---
I am not against combating the Nova.
[07:46] ---
Even after I graduate,
[07:48] ---
should the Nova appear, I can
fight for my friends and family.
[07:53] ---
But continuing on to Chevalier,
[07:56] ---
to be praised as one who leads the Pandora...
[08:00] ---
That is frightening beyond belief.
[08:02] ---
Frightening?
[08:06] ---
Because I lack the true
strength of a Pandora.
[08:12] ---
The strength of will to face
any threat, unyielding...
[08:16] ---
...and a belief in oneself with
a heart resolute as steel.
[08:21] ---
Those are the strengths of a Pandora.
[08:24] ---
If that's the case, then you--
[08:26] ---
No.
[08:28] ---
I do not have those things in me.
[08:31] ---
Someone has already taught me that.
[08:35] ---
"Someone"?
[08:36] ---
To be precise, my fight with
her drove that point home.
[08:43] ---
One year ago, when Brooks Leevon
was permanently injured...
[08:48] ---
Yes.
[08:49] ---
What are you doing?!
[08:52] ---
Satellizer el Bridget.
[08:58] ---
That day, she taught me all too well
[09:00] ---
just what a terrible coward I am.
[09:08] ---
Cathy...
[09:10] ---
The Sacreds...
[09:12] ---
My sister's Stigmata. Has someone
other than Cathy received them?
[09:22] ---
But she had Sacreds, just
like you. Six of them, even.
[09:27] ---
Satelli has them, too?
[09:33] ---
However, an exam before she transferred
[09:35] ---
showed a compatibility rate of not even 5%.
[09:40] ---
So Satelli looked to me like my sister
[09:44] ---
because she had the Sacreds grafted onto her?
[09:48] ---
Aoi...
[09:50] ---
Yes, Ma'am.
[09:51] ---
I've heard that you wish
to become her Limiter.
[09:56] ---
Y-Yes! I haven't received baptism
yet, but I'm her Limiter.
[10:00] ---
Sort of...
[10:01] ---
Is that so?
[10:03] ---
I've worried about this,
following the incident at East,
[10:07] ---
but it seems my fears were groundless.
[10:09] ---
The incident at East!
[10:11] ---
When Satelli permanently injured a
student who wanted to be her Limiter?
[10:15] ---
Did that really happen?
[10:17] ---
Yes. But later, the boy who was injured
[10:22] ---
acknowledged his fault
for trying to force her.
[10:26] ---
Oh. Really?
[10:30] ---
If Cathy Lockharte hadn't been there,
[10:34] ---
they say he would have been hurt even more.
[10:38] ---
If Cathy hadn't been there?
[10:40] ---
Satellizer's family runs the El Corporation.
[10:43] ---
There are rumors that she used
her influence to get the Sacreds.
[10:46] ---
But why fear her?
[10:54] ---
To be sure, the difference in
power between us was clear.
[11:11] ---
But even when the fight
seemed to have been settled,
[11:15] ---
she refused to show any sign of giving up.
[11:19] ---
Though beaten again and
again, she came at me.
[11:22] ---
Such strong will...
[11:24] ---
That, truly, was someone
with a heart of steel,
[11:27] ---
one that would be beaten by no one.
[11:31] ---
Our reason for fighting-- what
we carried in our hearts--
[11:37] ---
was clearly different.
[11:42] ---
In the end, another third-year who
showed up finally finished her off.
[11:48] ---
But I... I had lost my nerve!
[11:53] ---
Someone like me is not fit to
lead comrades to fight the Nova!
[11:59] ---
Cathy...
[12:18] ---
Under East's jurisdiction?
[12:19] ---
Correct.
[12:21] ---
The dimensional interference noticed
recently is, sure enough...
[12:29] ---
Level 1 Alert! Level 1 Alert!
[12:33] ---
All Pandora and Limiters currently on campus!
[12:37] ---
Pandora, equip Volt Textures
with powered weaponry
[12:40] ---
and Limiters, equip battle uniforms
and assemble in the auditorium.
[12:44] ---
Volt Texture: equip.
[12:44] ---
Repeating... All Pandora and
Limiters currently on campus!
[12:49] ---
Pandora, equip Volt Textures
with powered weaponry
[12:52] ---
and Limiters, equip battle uniforms
and assemble in the auditorium.
[13:02] ---
This is footage from the ground.
[13:09] ---
This is unheard of...
[13:16] ---
Four Nova Type S are now
confirmed to have appeared!
[13:21] ---
Four of them?
[13:24] ---
Target 1 has entered the defensive line.
[13:26] ---
Evacuation of civilians and
noncombatants is 97% complete.
[13:31] ---
Intercept attack will begin
in 1 minute 30 seconds.
[13:55] ---
All units were destroyed.
[13:58] ---
Sure enough, conventional firepower...
[14:01] ---
Can't even slow them down, huh?
[14:09] ---
Yes?
[14:13] ---
Understood.
[14:16] ---
A message from general headquarters.
[14:19] ---
You all are to move out and serve
as reserve Pandora and Limiters.
[14:32] ---
Kazuya!
[14:34] ---
Did you hear?
[14:36] ---
Yeah.
[14:36] ---
Four Nova at once... Just what's going on?!
[14:40] ---
Do you think they'll come here?
[14:41] ---
L-Let 'em come!
[14:44] ---
If Ganessa and I move out together,
[14:48] ---
we can get one or two Nova!
[14:50] ---
Now hold on!
[14:51] ---
Ganessa is a second-year.
[14:53] ---
There's no way they'd
mobilize the second-years.
[14:56] ---
We don't know that! East
doesn't have enough firepower,
[15:01] ---
so even Pandora not assigned to
Chevalier were ordered to move out!
[15:06] ---
Not assigned to Chevalier, meaning...
[15:08] ---
The second- and third-years, of course!
[15:12] ---
Then she is...
[15:17] ---
We will reach the mission area in 15 minutes.
[15:20] ---
All personnel, prepare for descent.
[15:31] ---
Chevalier Platoons 3, 7 and
8 have completed deployment.
[15:36] ---
Intercept attack will begin in 180 seconds.
[15:42] ---
Target 1 continues to move.
[15:52] ---
Decoys are now in place.
[15:57] ---
Strikers are now in place.
[16:06] ---
Finishers are now in place.
[16:09] ---
Operation commencing in ten seconds.
[16:14] ---
Five... Four... Three...
[16:17] ---
Two... One...
[16:19] ---
Decoys, spread out!
[16:22] ---
Get it flustered enough for
the Strikers to get up there!
[16:34] ---
Freezing!
[16:36] ---
Now! Strikers, launch a direct attack!
[16:40] ---
Expose the core!
[16:44] ---
Finishers, destroy the core!
[16:47] ---
Quadruple Acceleration!
[16:51] ---
We're counting on you, Cathy Lockharte!
[16:55] ---
She's got it!
[16:56] ---
I'm finishing this!
[17:02] ---
Miss Cathy!
[17:09] ---
It timed its movement to
my Quadruple Acceleration?
[17:15] ---
That monster!
[17:19] ---
Decoys, again! Disrupt the target!
[17:23] ---
"High-Energy Alert"
[17:24] ---
Picking up high energy
readings from Target 1!
[17:27] ---
It can't be!
[17:39] ---
The Nova released a beam?
[17:42] ---
Another first...
[17:45] ---
This type is entirely different
[17:47] ---
from those that have previously appeared.
[17:51] ---
Incoming message from GHQ.
[17:52] ---
West has been ordered to mobilize.
[17:58] ---
So it's true-- the personnel at East
isn't enough to stop them, huh?
[18:03] ---
They're making our fourth-years move out?
[18:05] ---
There are four Nova. That's a lot.
[18:08] ---
Saying this may make me sound like a coward,
[18:11] ---
but I'm glad I'm a third-year.
[18:13] ---
It's so scary...
[18:17] ---
What is occurring?
[18:19] ---
Everyone looks anxious, and is
speaking in whispered tones.
[18:26] ---
What are you angry about?
[18:29] ---
She's frustrated.
[18:31] ---
Miss Student Council President!
Miss Vice President!
[18:34] ---
Frustrated at her own situation, able to
do nothing in this state of emergency.
[18:38] ---
State of emergency?
[18:41] ---
Do you not know what's going on right now?
[18:45] ---
Correct!
[18:49] ---
What will you do if we're
ordered to move out?
[18:52] ---
What do you mean?
[18:54] ---
I mean, would you pair up
and fight with Satellizer?
[18:59] ---
You haven't received baptism, right?
[19:03] ---
Oh. You don't need the Ereinbar Set,
[19:08] ---
so you could pair up with anyone.
[19:14] ---
I will fight... with Satelli.
[19:18] ---
She's a special person.
[19:22] ---
Special?
[19:24] ---
What do you mean?
[19:27] ---
The day I transferred here...
[19:30] ---
...Satelli looked like my sister to me.
[19:39] ---
Your sister? You mean the Heroine Pandora...
[19:43] ---
...Kazuha Aoi?
[19:46] ---
Yes.
[19:49] ---
Now I know why.
[19:53] ---
Satelli received Sacreds...
[19:56] ---
My sister's Stigmata.
[19:59] ---
S-So the reason you wanted
to be her Limiter...
[20:03] ---
...is because she was like your sister.
[20:09] ---
I didn't even notice it myself.
[20:25] ---
My eyes!
[20:26] ---
I can't see!
[20:30] ---
Get the medics out here!
How many? All of them!
[20:41] ---
Target 1 is repeatedly performing
some kind of unknown attack.
[20:46] ---
What is this?!
[20:49] ---
Th-They're fusing!
[20:51] ---
It's penetrating via the point of contact,
[20:53] ---
fusing with the Pandora's Stigmata framework!
[20:55] ---
The Volt Texture is being neutralized!
[20:59] ---
Miss Cathy!
[21:04] ---
Must get away... Quickly!
[21:09] ---
Ma'am!
[21:18] ---
Quadruple Acceleration!
[21:23] ---
It's no good. From deep inside my body...
[21:28] ---
...my will is being stolen!
[21:35] ---
Miss Cathy!
[21:45] ---
Satelli received Sacreds...
[21:47] ---
My sister's Stigmata.
[21:50] ---
S-So the reason you wanted
to be her Limiter...
[21:55] ---
...is because she was like your sister.
[22:17] ---
In a future that will break
down, I want to protect you
[22:24] ---
In a world of darkness, become the
star that will illuminate tomorrow
[22:38] ---
On lonely, anxious nights, even
if it seems you'll lose hope
[22:41] ---
Remember that I'll always be there
[22:45] ---
Don't lose it, that spark that only you have
[22:48] ---
Try it over and over, and
then overcome, yeah yeah!
[22:51] ---
Emerge from that maze in your heart
[22:55] ---
Because surely it makes a person stronger
[23:01] ---
One more chance
[23:05] ---
With you, I want to find a
future that gives off light
[23:12] ---
O tears that spill forth, become
the wind that will dry them
[23:19] ---
That's right, none of us can live alone
[23:25] ---
Stand up for you
[23:26] ---
All of us, break free of
the darkness of solitude
[23:31] ---
Don't look back again
[23:40] ---
Giving birth to the Pandora meant
[23:41] ---
planting the Nova's framework upon humanity.
[23:41] ---
Four Nova have appeared.
[23:44] ---
The Pandora that fused at East, eh?
[23:47] ---
Next time: "Nova Form."
[23:50] ---
"Watch again next time!"
"Margaret is the best!"
