[00:01] ---
    We can't even use GPS or
    commercial satellite connections.
[00:06] ---
    What's going on?
[00:07] ---
    This is a global phenomenon.
    It isn't just our own satellites.
[00:12] ---
    Navstar, Comstar, and other
    spy satellites are being badly affected.
[00:17] ---
    There is no telling when they'll be restored.
[00:19] ---
    It's solar wind.
    And on a scale very seldom seen.
[00:23] ---
    Solar wind?
[00:26] ---
    Are we sure of that?
[00:27] ---
    This interference most likely is caused
[00:30] ---
    by strong electromagnetic waves from the sun.
[00:33] ---
    It was reported that there was
    an increase in sunspot activity
[00:36] ---
    over the past few days.
[00:38] ---
    Even so, is it possible for it
    to cause this much damage?
[00:42] ---
    I'm not sure, sir.
[00:43] ---
    All I know is, it's an exceedingly
    rare case in recorded history.
[00:46] ---
    Rare, eh?
[00:48] ---
    I have experience with heavy storms.
[00:51] ---
    When natural disasters like this strike,
    neither side feels like waging war.
[00:56] ---
    But the enemy's taken advantage of this.
    That is the problem.
[01:00] ---
    True. Accurate predictions
    are supposed to be impossible.
[01:04] ---
    Normally.
[01:06] ---
    What are your thoughts,
    Lieutenant Commander?
[01:10] ---
    Yes sir, for now...
    we can only remain on guard.
[01:15] ---
    I'm already aware of that.
    But in your opinion...
[01:20] ---
    Incoming ultrahigh-speed cruise missiles.
[01:23] ---
    Eight of them, in sector D4!
[01:26] ---
    Range, 70 miles. Mach 6.3.
    Sixty-five seconds to impact.
[01:30] ---
    Intercept! Go to Red 1!
[01:33] ---
    Order personnel at surface
    observation posts to evacuate!
[01:37] ---
    Air traffic control.
[01:39] ---
    Gebo 6 is to abandon craft
    on the runway and take shelter.
[01:42] ---
    As are all nearby base personnel.
[01:43] ---
    Y-Yes, ma'am. And Gebo 5, who's taxiing?
[01:47] ---
    Emergency takeoff.
[01:48] ---
    Withdraw west of Merida Island,
    and stand by in the air!
[01:51] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[01:52] ---
    FCO reports interceptor missiles
    are being launched!
[01:59] ---
    Alert, Red 1.
[02:02] ---
    Alert, Red 1. All surface personnel,
[02:05] ---
    abandon your work and
    take shelter underground!
[02:16] ---
    Interceptor missiles, making contact. 2, 1...
[02:21] ---
    Three missiles successfully intercepted.
[02:23] ---
    The remaining five are inbound.
[02:26] ---
    Second wave of enemy missiles detected!
[02:28] ---
    Sector E4! Nine-- No, 12 of them!
    Range, 85 miles!
[02:33] ---
    BOL, intercept with all missiles!
[02:35] ---
    Yes, ma'am. Launching all missiles
    from #6 to #9 using BOL.
[02:42] ---
    T-Ten seconds until the first wave impacts!
[02:45] ---
    Remain calm!
[02:49] ---
    If they're nuclear, it will be instantaneous.

    Lie low on the seat. Do not sit up.
[04:34] ---
    Wh-What's going on?
[04:35] ---
    Enemies. We're running for it.
[04:39] ---
    Stay down!
[05:20] ---
    Sousuke, up top!
[05:46] ---
    Chidori! Are you hurt?
[05:47] ---
    I'm all right.
[05:54] ---
    Stay down!
[06:02] ---
    Sh-Should I shoot?
[06:04] ---
    --No.
    --But...
[06:05] ---
    Don't touch the gun!
[06:06] ---
    Don't shoot.
[06:09] ---
    Sousuke...?
[06:11] ---
    You mustn't... shoot.
[06:15] ---
    "Cool Home Delivery"
[06:18] ---
    They fled to the west.
    Towards Nogawa Park, along Route 14.
[06:22] ---
    Keep chasing them.
[06:23] ---
    Can we open fire?
[06:24] ---
    Whatever, fire away.
[06:26] ---
    Roger that.
[07:13] ---
    Sousuke, up ahead!
[07:23] ---
    Chidori?
[07:27] ---
    Chidori!
[07:30] ---
    H-Hey, buddy.
[07:32] ---
    You okay?
[07:33] ---
    Move!
[07:40] ---
    Can you stand?
[07:41] ---
    Think so.
[07:43] ---
    Can you run?
[07:44] ---
    I'll manage.
[07:51] ---
    I'll never let you...
    drive me anywhere again.
[07:55] ---
    Sorry, but you will any number of times
    if it's for your protection!
[08:02] ---
    Innocent people got caught up in this!
[08:04] ---
    All we can do right now is run.
[08:08] ---
    Uruz 7 to Gebo 9, can you hear me?
[08:11] ---
    Gebo 9 here. Report your situation, Uruz 7.
[08:15] ---
    Uruz 7 is currently engaging
    the enemy in combat.
[08:17] ---
    Heading northwest on foot.
[08:19] ---
    Gebo 9, roger. Any change in the LZ?
[08:23] ---
    No change. The smoke bomb will be yellow.
[08:25] ---
    At the park 500m to the west...
[08:48] ---
    Get up!
[08:50] ---
    Run!
[08:55] ---
    Oh, my god...
[08:58] ---
    Are you o--
[08:59] ---
    He's hurt because of us!
[09:00] ---
    Don't stop! Don't think about it!
[09:02] ---
    Sousuke!
[09:05] ---
    Sorry...
[09:14] ---
    I can't run anymore!
[09:16] ---
    Just a little more! Keep trying!
[09:22] ---
    We'll wait here for the chopper. Stay down.
[09:24] ---
    But...
[09:25] ---
    Keep down!
[09:44] ---
    They on our side?
[09:46] ---
    They got here in time!
[09:55] ---
    That's the way.
[09:59] ---
    Come around to the north side.
    I'll bring you in from the rear!
[10:02] ---
    Get up, let's go!
[10:27] ---
    Damn it!
[10:30] ---
    No! No more!
[10:32] ---
    Don't give up!
[10:32] ---
    No!
[10:34] ---
    Get down!
[10:43] ---
    My ammo...
[10:47] ---
    Activating emergency evacuation mode,
[10:51] ---
    based on special instructions
    found in file X-ray 1.
[10:54] ---
    Mandatory use of external audio is in effect.
[10:57] ---
    Is that...
[10:58] ---
    This is serial number C-002.
    Code name, ARX-7 Arbalest.
[11:05] ---
    If any officers of the
    affiliated forces are nearby,
[11:07] ---
    please respond verbally.
[11:10] ---
    Al! You're alive?
[11:12] ---
    Check. Identity confirmed as
    Sergeant Sousuke Sagara.
[11:16] ---
    Affirmative, Uruz 7.
[11:18] ---
    This unit is being exposed to heat that
    exceeds the threshold for practical use.
[11:22] ---
    Permission to seek safety?
[11:24] ---
    Permission granted! Get over here right now!
[11:26] ---
    Roger.
[11:48] ---
    Chidori! Climb on!
[11:56] ---
    S-Sto...
[12:09] ---
    Give me a hand!
    Somebody else is down over here!
[12:12] ---
    Are they conscious?
[12:13] ---
    I don't know! I called out
    but they don't respond!
[12:17] ---
    What are our casualties?
[12:18] ---
    Minor injuries, 28.
    Serious injuries, 11. Deceased, 5.
[12:23] ---
    Observation post 2 personnel
    didn't evacuate in time.
[12:28] ---
    I see.
[12:29] ---
    Our problems are only beginning.
    That was a preliminary attack.
[12:33] ---
    Landing forces?
[12:35] ---
    They'll come.
[12:37] ---
    Make no mistake. They'll be airborne.
[12:39] ---
    This is Gebo 5.
[12:42] ---
    Calling Merida Island command center.
[12:44] ---
    Group of large aircraft detected.
    Over ten of them.
[12:47] ---
    Approaching from sector F8.
[12:54] ---
    Send out Super Harriers to intercept them.
[12:56] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[12:57] ---
    Lieutenant Commander,
    do you think we can fully hold them off?
[13:00] ---
    Possibly, with our usual strength.
[13:02] ---
    But in this situation,
    we're practically blind.
[13:07] ---
    The front door is demolished, too.
[13:10] ---
    In the worst case, we might have to
    consider how the crew will escape.
[13:14] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[13:16] ---
    What shape is the runway in?
[13:18] ---
    We can send up Super Harriers,
    but definitely not transports.
[13:21] ---
    Repairs would probably require three days.
[13:28] ---
    What about the Danaan?
[13:29] ---
    The Tuatha de Danaan could
    transport everyone in this base.
[13:32] ---
    But as you're aware,
[13:35] ---
    it's been undergoing maintenance
    since last week.
[13:37] ---
    It will take more than half a day
    before it can put out to sea.
[13:41] ---
    Have them hurry.
[13:43] ---
    Mr. Mardukas, go take command
    of the work personally.
[13:45] ---
    Understood, ma'am.
[13:49] ---
    Mr. Kalinin.
[13:50] ---
    Please have every AS ready to go.
[13:53] ---
    All of them, including the M6s
    we use for training.
[13:55] ---
    Deploy them on the north coast,
    with D equipment.
[13:57] ---
    Understood, ma'am.
[13:58] ---
    Just a moment!
[14:00] ---
    Gebo 5 has an additional report.
[14:02] ---
    Put him through.
[14:05] ---
    This is Gebo 5.
[14:06] ---
    Some kind of, uh, heat sources
    detected at sea in sector G2.
[14:11] ---
    They number three.
    I suspect they're underwater vessels.
[14:15] ---
    Deliver your report clearly.
    What is it that's coming?
[14:19] ---
    I apologize. They simply don't
    fall into any known category.
[14:22] ---
    I just picked them up on optical sensors!
    Sending you the image.
[14:29] ---
    What in the world...?
[14:31] ---
    They're Behemoths.
[15:04] ---
    What the...?
[15:08] ---
    Behemoths?
[15:09] ---
    Yeah, like the one you guys
    tangled with in Tokyo.
[15:13] ---
    There's three of them.
[15:15] ---
    For real?
[15:16] ---
    Is that bad news?
[15:17] ---
    Very bad. Missiles and 57mm cannons
    didn't work against that giant AS.
[15:23] ---
    How does our captain expect us
    to fight against monsters like that?
[15:28] ---
    Complaining won't help us.
[15:30] ---
    I don't like this. At all.
[15:33] ---
    It's fine if you skip everything
    before process C!
[15:36] ---
    Yes, sir!
[15:36] ---
    Carry the 40mm rounds over there!
[15:39] ---
    --Load all the GECs at site 2!
[15:40] ---
    --AS operators, assemble!
    --Load all the GECs at site 2!
[15:45] ---
    You're all here?
[15:46] ---
    As you probably know,
    Amalgam has launched a major offensive.
[15:50] ---
    The three Behemoths pose
    a particularly major threat.
[15:53] ---
    They're due to make landfall in 40 minutes.
[15:56] ---
    The radio interference
    allowed them to get close,
[15:59] ---
    but it's up to us to intercept them.
[16:01] ---
    "Intercept," huh?
[16:03] ---
    Aren't those giants equipped
    with those Lambda Driver things?
[16:06] ---
    That's right. Regular
    attacks won't work at all.
[16:10] ---
    I've read the report. This is ill-advised.
[16:14] ---
    Even so, we have to confront them.
[16:16] ---
    This base is strong against bombardment,
    but there's a limit.
[16:20] ---
    The de Danaan's in the middle of maintenance.
[16:22] ---
    If three Behemoths come ashore,
    they'll destroy it eventually.
[16:25] ---
    Yeah, but--
[16:26] ---
    It's our only means of escape.
[16:30] ---
    This is a solitary island far out at sea.
[16:32] ---
    If we lose the de Danaan,
    we'll all wind up dead in this cave.
[16:37] ---
    There's no way to survive
    other than defeating those Behemoths.
[16:43] ---
    How about this, then?
[16:45] ---
    Stop fighting this losing battle.
[16:48] ---
    How about we take some rifles
    and go the command center?
[16:53] ---
    Stop it, Speck!
[16:56] ---
    I bet if we handed over Tessa
    and the de Danaan unharmed,
[16:59] ---
    the enemy would go for it.
[17:01] ---
    I think they'd be happy to
    settle this with a businesslike agreement.
[17:06] ---
    Go on, keep saying that crap.
    I'll consider it treason.
[17:11] ---
    Come on, I'm just a hired gun.
[17:15] ---
    Are you telling me to happily die
    for my team? For my comrades?
[17:20] ---
    You son of a...
[17:22] ---
    I don't want to waste my life,
    for the record. Don't you all agree?
[17:28] ---
    I did warn you.
[17:30] ---
    Corporal Speck, I hereby sentence you to--
[17:32] ---
    You'd sell me out?
    That's a rather fine idea.
[17:37] ---
    Captain.
[17:38] ---
    I suspected that topic might come up,
    so I came to check on you.
[17:43] ---
    You were listening? Well,
    it's nothing personal.
[17:47] ---
    Please let me have your side arm.
[17:58] ---
    Tessa!
[17:59] ---
    Some of you are probably inclined
    to agree with Mr. Speck.
[18:03] ---
    But I won't allow it.
[18:05] ---
    If anyone is contemplating treason,
    I'll shoot you to death right here.
[18:08] ---
    Whoa, be reasonable. I think
    you're a great girl and all, but--
[18:22] ---
    Reconsider your attitude, Corporal.
[18:26] ---
    Perhaps you thought I was going
    to come all the way here
[18:29] ---
    to beg you to cooperate
    with tears in my eyes?
[18:34] ---
    That I'd ask for a mix of sympathy and loyalty,
    banking on your commendable goodwill?
[18:40] ---
    Doesn't the fact that you're here mean that
    you too walk the path of the warrior?
[18:44] ---
    You arrived at this predicament
    via your own will.
[18:47] ---
    Am I wrong?
[18:50] ---
    Did you think I was some
    princess in name only?
[18:55] ---
    No.
[18:56] ---
    Tell me who I am!
[19:04] ---
    Captain Teletha Testarossa.
[19:08] ---
    Commanding officer of
    the Tuatha de Danaan's forces.
[19:11] ---
    Then take back your previous
    remarks and apologize.
[19:16] ---
    Immediately.
[19:19] ---
    I take it back. I apologize.
[19:24] ---
    Very well.
[19:30] ---
    Mr. Speck. Your team is
    in need of your skills.
[19:35] ---
    I will overlook your treasonous instigation
    once we all survive this.
[19:40] ---
    Survive? How do you figure
    that's going to happen?
[19:45] ---
    You seem to have the wrong idea.
[19:48] ---
    I have never once ordered
    any of you to "die."
[19:52] ---
    I never have, and I never will.
[19:58] ---
    Survive. That is an order!
[20:02] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[20:04] ---
    Good luck.
[20:18] ---
    Sorry about that.
[20:20] ---
    Shit!
[20:21] ---
    But it crossed your minds, too, right?
[20:24] ---
    Don't look at me like that.
[20:27] ---
    Then don't say it in the first place.
[20:32] ---
    Good grief.
[20:33] ---
    Looks like we'll just
    have to rack our brains.
[20:36] ---
    I guess our payment for
    the mission is our lives.
[20:40] ---
    It's a fitting fee.
[20:41] ---
    Well, things might work out somehow.
[20:46] ---
    That does it! I wanna marry her!
[20:49] ---
    Too bad, then.
[20:52] ---
    Anyone who outranks you
    gets to propose to her first.
[21:04] ---
    All right... back to the strategy meeting.
[21:08] ---
    Who among you has actually
    fought a Behemoth and damaged it?
[21:22] ---
    Me...?
[21:32] ---
    "Follow-up report: Due to the explosions

[21:49] ---
    Have you calmed down?
[21:50] ---
    More or less.
[21:53] ---
    The people in that helicopter...
[21:55] ---
    Yeah.
[21:57] ---
    They died coming here to rescue me.
[22:01] ---
    No. It was in the line of duty.
[22:03] ---
    But...
[22:04] ---
    Don't blame yourself.
[22:06] ---
    So many people got involved.

    Chidori.
[22:09] ---
    Sorry.
[22:11] ---
    I'm scared...
[22:13] ---
    Of course. That was intense combat.
[22:17] ---
    Yeah, but...
[22:23] ---
    No.
[22:24] ---
    No!
