[00:10] ---
    It's been three days now.
[00:13] ---
    Michel Lemon! Out.
[00:22] ---
    Bardet.
[00:24] ---
    I've been looking for you, man.
[01:58] ---
    "Episode 7
    Giant Killing"
[02:02] ---
    It's a shame about Mr. Lemon.
    He's been in jail all this time.
[02:07] ---
    He's a hostage.
    He'll just have to put up with it.
[02:09] ---
    I suppose.
[02:12] ---
    Will this work for
    the fire control system settings?
[02:17] ---
    You did these?
[02:18] ---
    I'm not good with stuff like this. Is it okay?
[02:22] ---
    It's flawless.
[02:23] ---
    Oh, good! This took a whole half a day.
[02:27] ---
    I wasn't too confident.
[02:29] ---
    This work takes three days even for experts.
    Where did you learn it?
[02:33] ---
    Well, I mean, I just know how.
[02:36] ---
    That's impossible.
[02:37] ---
    Who in the world taught you a skill like...
[02:42] ---
    What's wrong?
[02:44] ---
    Nami. You might be...
[02:47] ---
    No, never mind.
[02:49] ---
    There's no way she's the same
    as Chidori and Tessa.
[02:54] ---
    Weirdo.
[03:05] ---
    This is takin' forever.
    Are you sure this is the place?
[03:09] ---
    Assuming this map isn't wrong, yeah.
[03:11] ---
    I figured we'd be led to some
    dangerous locale for an illegal battle.
[03:17] ---
    This is just the boonies.
[03:19] ---
    There are old ruins over there.
    I figure they probably use those?
[03:28] ---
    Looks like they're here.
[03:39] ---
    Sousuke Sagara.
[03:41] ---
    You'll board your mech here.
[03:44] ---
    There are ruins 3km to the northwest.
    Move there and stand by.
[03:49] ---
    What about us?
[03:50] ---
    Stay here.
[03:52] ---
    Huh?! Wireless instructions
    won't reach from that far away!
[03:56] ---
    What do--
[03:57] ---
    It's for safety's sake, young lady.
[04:00] ---
    One stray bullet means a horrible tragedy.
[04:03] ---
    A-A splendid order, sir.
[04:08] ---
    What about AS weapons?
[04:10] ---
    They've been placed at the ruins.
[04:14] ---
    Oh, yes.
[04:16] ---
    About your opponent tonight.
    We've prepared an interesting mech.
[04:21] ---
    By all means, have fun.
[04:40] ---
    All right, I'll be back.
[04:42] ---
    Be careful!
[04:43] ---
    Don't worry.
[04:44] ---
    I'm worried about the mech, not you!
[04:47] ---
    Oh.
[04:48] ---
    But...
[04:53] ---
    S-Still, don't do anything reckless.
[04:57] ---
    You'd better come back in one piece!
[05:00] ---
    I intend to.
[05:05] ---
    Good, then.
[05:07] ---
    You owe me dinner once this is over!
[05:14] ---
    Sousuke?
[05:17] ---
    What's wrong?
[05:19] ---
    Are you listening?
[05:21] ---
    Sure. I'll treat you to anything.
[05:23] ---
    See you later.
[05:27] ---
    Sousuke...
[05:28] ---
    Don't worry. He can take care of himself.
[05:31] ---
    And I have a feeling
    we're the ones in trouble.
[06:07] ---
    I got started without you.
[06:09] ---
    Oh, Mr. Kurama. You've arrived early.
[06:13] ---
    I don't like doing things
    this slowly and tediously, though.
[06:17] ---
    But it must be this way.
[06:19] ---
    Executives all around the globe
    are planning to watch this battle.
[06:24] ---
    It's stupid.
[06:28] ---
    Excuse me.
[06:29] ---
    Help yourself, if you wish.
    They're of the finest quality.
[06:33] ---
    Stop it.
[06:37] ---
    I quit smoking.
[07:07] ---
    Welcome to the true arena, Crossbow.
[07:10] ---
    Over there you'll find your weapons.
    Use them as you see fit.
[07:16] ---
    I appreciate that.
[07:40] ---
    That won't work. It's set up so
    this viewing area can't be attacked.
[07:46] ---
    That figures.
[07:51] ---
    So where's my opponent for tonight?
[07:54] ---
    Right there. The operator
    has a smile on his face.
[08:04] ---
    I smell ozone!
[08:18] ---
    Have you figured it out?
[08:20] ---
    This mech is...
[08:25] ---
    ...an M9, of all things.
[08:27] ---
    Surprised?
[08:29] ---
    From what I hear, you used to
    pilot that mech all the time.
[08:34] ---
    That is, when you were with
    Mithril or whatever it's called.
[08:37] ---
    Sounds like you have it all figured out.
[08:40] ---
    Sure, when you attracted all that attention
    and didn't even use an alias.
[08:44] ---
    I'd have been fine with
    getting rid of you downtown,
[08:47] ---
    but that would have been boring.
[08:50] ---
    I decided since it's here,
    I'll have you fight that M9.
[08:54] ---
    So it was Amalgam's idea?
[08:56] ---
    I might just tell you, if you survive.
[08:59] ---
    But how will you stand up
    to a cutting-edge mech using that heap?
[09:05] ---
    In other words, this isn't a fighting match.
[09:09] ---
    It's an execution.
[09:14] ---
    Do it.
[09:35] ---
    As quick as ever.
[10:06] ---
    No way, an M9?
[10:08] ---
    Say what? That's state-of-the-art! Not even
    the US military has fielded those yet!
[10:12] ---
    But... I'm sure of it. That's an M9.
[10:16] ---
    --Whoa, whoa! Ours is a Savage!
    --Ah, shit...
[10:18] ---
    That's like racing a Porsche with a mini truck!
[10:22] ---
    We don't stand a chance!
[10:23] ---
    Hey! Even if it's an illegal battle,
    isn't this a little much?!
[10:27] ---
    Cancel the match right now!
[10:32] ---
    Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Understood.
[10:36] ---
    Hey!
[10:38] ---
    We're relocating! Get in.
[10:40] ---
    W-Wait! What the--
[10:41] ---
    Hurry up!
[10:43] ---
    That hurt...
[10:52] ---
    You, come this way.
[10:53] ---
    --Hey!
    --Nami!
[10:56] ---
    Don't worry. I'll get in touch later.
[10:59] ---
    Quit wasting time.
[11:11] ---
    He's doing well in that junker.
[11:14] ---
    Between those skills and the Arbalest,
[11:16] ---
    no wonder he gave us so much trouble.
[11:18] ---
    Arbalest?
[11:19] ---
    Never mind. I'm saying we can't be too careful.
[11:23] ---
    Well, to me, he just looked like
    a typical has-been child soldier.
[11:29] ---
    Don't underestimate him.
[11:31] ---
    He's the man who killed
    the likes of Gauron and Gates.
[11:33] ---
    Gauron? Gates?
[11:36] ---
    You don't know of them?
[11:37] ---
    No.
[11:38] ---
    It's so carefree out in the country.
[11:40] ---
    Sir?
[11:41] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[11:42] ---
    Yes, sir...
[11:46] ---
    Th-That aside, we're planning on
    getting rid of Sagara's buddies.
[11:51] ---
    Would you care to watch?
[11:53] ---
    Not interested.
[12:09] ---
    I'll never win in a gunfight.
[12:24] ---
    H-Hey! Why're we going
    in different directions?
[12:27] ---
    You guys don't need to know.
[12:40] ---
    Get out.
[12:42] ---
    All right, you don't have to push.
[12:49] ---
    This is...
[12:51] ---
    A pig farm.
[13:10] ---
    Line up and climb the stairs.
[13:12] ---
    Y-You're kidding, right?
    Any way you look at it, this's--
[13:17] ---
    Don't give us any trouble!
[13:19] ---
    Are you serious?
[13:20] ---
    Just let us go.
[13:22] ---
    Sorry, but I have my orders.
    Line up like I said.
[13:26] ---
    There's no need for that.
[13:30] ---
    L-Lemon! Y-You're supposed to be in jail!
[13:35] ---
    Never mind, just get down low.
[13:38] ---
    I don't know what the deal is,
    but you have the nerve to show up here?
[13:42] ---
    I guess we'll feed you to the pigs, too!
[13:45] ---
    I'll pass.
[13:47] ---
    Kill them.
[13:55] ---
    The situation's under control, monsieur.
[13:57] ---
    Thanks, Bardet.
[14:00] ---
    Lemon, what's going on here?
[14:03] ---
    It's basically what it looks like.
[14:06] ---
    I'm not really a journalist.
    These guys are my colleagues.
[14:10] ---
    Although I can't fill you in on the details.
[14:15] ---
    Sounds like Sousuke is
    getting close to his objective.
[14:19] ---
    Probably the same objective as mine.
[14:23] ---
    My last magazine...
[14:35] ---
    He's ready to end this.
[15:04] ---
    Not much ammo left.
    And only two more HEAT Hammers.
[15:13] ---
    Might as well risk it.
[15:48] ---
    A little farther forward, that's right.
[16:25] ---
    A-A draw?
[16:27] ---
    That was no accident--it was intentional.
[16:31] ---
    The M9 is fully electrically driven.
[16:33] ---
    If it's hit by an excessive load,
    it won't be able to move properly.
[16:37] ---
    But while the Savage is an old mech,
[16:40] ---
    its oval torso makes it
    durable against pressure.
[16:43] ---
    And it also uses a hydraulic drive.
[16:46] ---
    Even if it's crushed by
    a large amount of rubble,
[16:48] ---
    a Savage can escape using its own power.
[16:57] ---
    What a good mech.
[17:18] ---
    He ended up winning.
[17:20] ---
    Impossible... Who is he...? Impossible!
[17:24] ---
    So what's your plan now?
[17:27] ---
    He found out who we are.
    He'll do whatever he has to to get to you.
[17:35] ---
    E-Enter!
[17:37] ---
    I beg your pardon, sir.
[17:43] ---
    Right, that's right! I still have you!
[17:51] ---
    Who the hell are you,
    that you took down this M9?
[17:57] ---
    I'm the one asking the questions.
    Identify yourself to me.
[18:01] ---
    I refuse.
[18:04] ---
    That combat with you wore
    this thing out quite a bit.
[18:07] ---
    I might end up crushing you.
[18:09] ---
    Stop!
[18:11] ---
    I bet it's hot. This mech's
    cooling system is shoddy.
[18:16] ---
    The heat travels all the way
    down to the fingertips.
[18:18] ---
    All right! All right!
[18:20] ---
    I surrender! Let go!
[18:24] ---
    State your name and affiliation.
[18:26] ---
    George Lovelock.
[18:28] ---
    I'm currently with Amalgam's aggressor force.
[18:32] ---
    Were you previously a Mithril soldier?
[18:35] ---
    That's right.
[18:36] ---
    Wait, don't tell me you're...
[18:39] ---
    I was with the West Pacific Fleet.
[18:42] ---
    No wonder you're familiar with
    the M9's weaknesses.
[18:46] ---
    I was with the Mediterranean Fleet.
[18:48] ---
    What happened to your forces?
[18:51] ---
    They were wiped out while I was
    away from base on a mission.
[18:55] ---
    When I returned, little did I
    know it was under their control.
[18:59] ---
    And so, you surrendered.
[19:01] ---
    It's better than dying in vain.
[19:04] ---
    Where are their bases of operation?
[19:07] ---
    I'm not too sure.
[19:09] ---
    What I actually saw was a camp
    on the outskirts of Tripoli,
[19:11] ---
    and some place on Ceylon.
[19:14] ---
    I only just got here yesterday.
[19:16] ---
    A man calling himself Kurama showed up.
[19:18] ---
    You said Kurama?
[19:20] ---
    You know him?
[19:21] ---
    Where is he?
[19:23] ---
    At that viewing area.
[19:26] ---
    Kurama...
[19:33] ---
    A chopper's coming!
[19:34] ---
    Must be to finish us both off.
    We're done for.
[19:38] ---
    Hide somewhere.
[19:39] ---
    Aren't you out of weapons?
[19:42] ---
    No problem.
[19:48] ---
    Whoa...
[19:50] ---
    You can't mean...!
[20:24] ---
    Everything has its limit.
[20:26] ---
    Is it inoperative?
[20:30] ---
    It'll run, with a few repairs,
    but for now it's stuck.
[20:33] ---
    There's no time. Go on and make a run for it.
[20:36] ---
    Don't tell me you're fighting
    all by yourself? Against Amalgam?!
[20:43] ---
    Affirmative.
[20:45] ---
    You're insane. You'll get killed!
[20:49] ---
    They took something precious from me.
[20:52] ---
    I intend to get it back no matter what.
[20:57] ---
    I don't get it. You and I are just mercenaries.
[21:02] ---
    I'm no longer a mercenary.
[21:04] ---
    I'm just a man.
[21:16] ---
    Damn it!
[21:25] ---
    Apparently, it's all over.
[21:27] ---
    I heard it was a big upset.
[21:30] ---
    I bet a lot of guys are getting
    ready to skip town tonight.
[21:38] ---
    Security's tight.
[21:45] ---
    Nami!
[21:50] ---
    Sagara! Are you watching?!
[21:52] ---
    I know you're there!
[21:54] ---
    Come out and drop your weapons!
    Otherwise, I'll kill this girl!
[22:01] ---
    You remember what happened in Tokyo, right?
[22:04] ---
    I think you know I'm serious.
[22:08] ---
    Too far away.
[22:10] ---
    I'll give you ten seconds!
[22:13] ---
    Ten!
[22:15] ---
    Nine!
[22:17] ---
    So many enemies...
[22:19] ---
    Eight!
[22:22] ---
    Seven!
[22:27] ---
    Six!
[22:30] ---
    Five!
[22:32] ---
    Chidori!
