[00:45] ---
    An unknown frontier
[00:48] ---
    On the map painted by my heart
[00:52] ---
    When I open the door, the path goes on
[00:59] ---
    I'm kicking up dust as I
    start running to your town

[01:05] ---
    Along a route where earth and sky meet
[01:11] ---
    Riding the rushing southern wind
[01:15] ---
    Slicing through the wind dyed blue by the sky
[01:18] ---
    I'm rushing out with my whole heart
[01:25] ---
    Shooting past the midday moon
[01:29] ---
    Towards a world different
    from what we've known before

[01:32] ---
    I will keep on running through to the end
[01:36] ---
    However far
[01:37] ---
    Just like that wind
[01:42] ---
    Just like that wind
[02:19] ---
    Since the breakdown of ceasefire
    negotiations yesterday it's a melee here in Taboli City,
[02:22] ---
    with the army of the Republic of
    Balic, anti-government guerrillas,
[02:24] ---
    and a number of armed militias from various
    factions all engaged in fierce armed conflict.
[02:29] ---
    Numerous assaults and acts of
    cruelty have been witnessed,
[02:32] ---
    causing the atmosphere inside
    the city to be extremely tense.
[02:35] ---
    Also, in a medical facility
    just outside the city,
[02:38] ---
    about 100 refugees...
[02:40] ---
    have been stranded...
[03:15] ---
    Al. Test the data links.
[03:18] ---
    Roger.
[03:19] ---
    ADM, on. PCL, contact.
[03:22] ---
    Opening from 403 to 412.
    Commencing TAC transfer.
[03:25] ---
    "The Ending Day By Day"
[03:28] ---
    Check the secondaries too.
[03:29] ---
    Roger.
[03:30] ---
    Bad news from the observation team.
[03:31] ---
    It looks like we're running
    late for the party.
[03:33] ---
    That's just fine by me. The
    hero always arrives late.
[03:37] ---
    Idiot!
[03:38] ---
    I'm not going to help you if
    something goes wrong for you.
[03:40] ---
    Oh man, that's cold.
[03:41] ---
    Colonel Maress,
[03:43] ---
    the only people here are sick or
    elderly, or else women and children.
[03:46] ---
    If you have even a little human
    compassion, please let us go.
[03:51] ---
    Gebo 4 to all units.
[03:53] ---
    We've arrived at Point Echo.
[03:54] ---
    Activating ECS. Now in stealth mode.
[03:57] ---
    Opening cargo bay hatches.
[03:59] ---
    I... I'm begging you.
[04:01] ---
    If you do something like this,
    God will never forgive...
[04:05] ---
    Uruz 2, roger.
[04:07] ---
    You all heard that, right? Are you ready?
[04:08] ---
    I don't give a damn.
[04:10] ---
    Least of all about the
    god your lot believe in.
[04:13] ---
    Colonel Maress...
[04:15] ---
    This is Uruz 6. I'm okay to go!
[04:19] ---
    This is Uruz 7. Ready to drop.
[04:22] ---
    Die!
[04:36] ---
    What the...
[04:42] ---
    This is Uruz 6. I'm in firing position.
[04:45] ---
    Let's get this party started!
[04:53] ---
    Defend the perimeter!
[04:55] ---
    Red 1 is... Red 1 is...
[04:57] ---
    Dammit! Radio and sensors are down!
[04:59] ---
    What's going on? Are they jamming us?
[05:03] ---
    AS spotted! Gunner, fire at will!
[05:07] ---
    Calm down!
[05:08] ---
    Close formation! There
    aren't very many of them.
[05:30] ---
    Colonel Maress, who in
    the world are those guys?
[05:34] ---
    They couldn't possibly be the
    anti-government forces...
[05:36] ---
    They're Mithril.
[05:37] ---
    Mithril?
[05:38] ---
    I've heard of them before.
[05:40] ---
    I've heard rumors that
    there's an elusive mercenary
[05:43] ---
    force not aligned with any government.
[05:46] ---
    They have weaponry ten years in
    advance of the rest of the world
[05:48] ---
    and extraordinary personnel.
[05:50] ---
    Apparently they interfere
    in international conflicts,
[05:51] ---
    acting like they're some
    sort of peacekeepers.
[05:53] ---
    But I never thought I'd ever see them...
[05:56] ---
    But why would people like
    them help the refugees?
[05:59] ---
    I have no idea.
[06:00] ---
    But you saw those AS units, didn't you?
[06:03] ---
    Not even the Americans have
    that kind of machinery yet.
[06:05] ---
    It has to be them. Mithril has come!
[06:08] ---
    I suggest we call in reinforcements, Colonel.
[06:10] ---
    Absolutely. Throw everything
    we've got at them.
[06:13] ---
    Don't let those mercenaries leave here alive.
[06:15] ---
    Or those heretic refugees, either!
[06:19] ---
    Mike 13 destroyed.
[06:21] ---
    All hostile targets neutralized.
[06:23] ---
    Master mode 6.
[06:25] ---
    Stay on alert with active sensors.
[06:27] ---
    Roger.
[06:29] ---
    Uruz 2 to Uruz 6, Uruz 7.
[06:31] ---
    Defend the perimeter around the camp.
[06:33] ---
    Secure a landing area for the choppers.
[06:35] ---
    Uruz 7, roger.
[06:37] ---
    Uruz 6, roger.
[06:40] ---
    This is Gebo 4.
[06:41] ---
    I'm descending on the landing area.
[06:43] ---
    You'd better do a good job protecting my ass.
[06:45] ---
    Heh! Sorry, I don't go for guys' asses.
[06:48] ---
    Just hurry and load up.
[06:51] ---
    Whatever.
[07:02] ---
    We'll take the wounded on first!
[07:04] ---
    All men, help out!
[07:05] ---
    Women and children,
[07:07] ---
    gather in one place and stay where you
    are until you receive further notice!
[07:09] ---
    But man, they're nothing but
    old men, old ladies, and kids.
[07:14] ---
    Why did the enemy bother to attack them?
[07:17] ---
    That's what ethnic conflicts are like.
[07:20] ---
    Well, but in this case,
[07:21] ---
    there are probably some
    more complicated issues.
[07:24] ---
    Politics?
[07:26] ---
    Economics too.
[07:27] ---
    They probably use actions that go
    against international peace treaties
[07:31] ---
    to give the major countries a
    suitable amount of provocation,
[07:33] ---
    and then look at the results
    to decide who to approach
[07:36] ---
    for backroom deals in the rights to
    their mineral resources or whatever.
[07:39] ---
    Our involvement is a part of all that, too.
[07:43] ---
    Absolutely disgusting, isn't it?
[07:46] ---
    But it was worth coming here.
[07:48] ---
    Exactly.
[07:50] ---
    Tiwaz 12, what's your situation?
[07:52] ---
    This is Tiwaz 12.
[07:54] ---
    There are two combined-arms companies
    approaching from the northwest.
[07:57] ---
    Near coordinates 36A, 87A.
[08:00] ---
    12 AS units, 12 MBTs, and a lot more.
[08:04] ---
    Looks like you've still got time
    before they reach you, but...
[08:07] ---
    Crap!
[08:12] ---
    It's Triple A!
[08:13] ---
    I've taken a hit fired from the
    hill 10 km southwest of here.
[08:15] ---
    The engine and pressure gauge are damaged.
[08:17] ---
    Unable to restart. I'm going
    in for a crash landing.
[08:21] ---
    Tiwaz 12, are you okay?
[08:23] ---
    Tiwaz 12, respond!
[08:26] ---
    I'm still alive, somehow...
[08:28] ---
    I'll send you the data on
    the Triple A immediately.
[08:30] ---
    We'll destroy this unit
    and run over your way.
[08:35] ---
    An anti-ECS missile?
[08:37] ---
    Nobody ever told me these guys
    had such advanced equipment.
[08:39] ---
    Yeah, this is bad. Our choppers
    are going to get shot down.
[08:43] ---
    Uruz 2, we can't take off now.
[08:46] ---
    As soon as we reach 150 feet,
[08:48] ---
    a missile will take us down and
    the refugees along with us!
[08:49] ---
    I know. But enemy troops are coming.
[08:52] ---
    How good are you at NOE flight?
    We'll give you an escort.
[08:55] ---
    Follow along alternate route two, and...
[09:00] ---
    Where are you going, Sousuke?
[09:01] ---
    I'll take down the anti-air missiles.
[09:03] ---
    What about the rendezvous?
[09:04] ---
    Find a way to handle it.
[09:05] ---
    We'll argue about it later.
[09:07] ---
    Understood.
[09:09] ---
    We'll guide the choppers
    to coordinates 34B, 99A.
[09:14] ---
    Be careful.
[09:15] ---
    Roger.
[09:16] ---
    We don't have time to spare.
[09:18] ---
    If this keeps up, we'll all
    be surrounded and killed.
[09:21] ---
    Report from the anti-air missile squad.
[09:23] ---
    We've shot down an enemy chopper.
[09:25] ---
    Good. Keep holding them down.
[09:29] ---
    If we keep them pinned down on land,
[09:31] ---
    we'll be able to crush
    them with our main troops.
[09:34] ---
    Relay the coordinates to the artillery!
[09:50] ---
    This is Uruz 7.
[09:51] ---
    I'm closing in fast on the enemy's
    antiaircraft installation.
[09:53] ---
    Five more minutes.
[09:54] ---
    This is Uruz 2.
[09:55] ---
    Moving away from camp. Distance
    from destination is...
[10:00] ---
    That was close.
[10:01] ---
    That was just a greeting.
[10:03] ---
    If we don't hurry, the enemy's going to
    rain down artillery fire on those choppers.
[10:06] ---
    Looks like it's just a matter of
    time before we're surrounded, huh?
[10:09] ---
    Even something as powerful as our M9s
    won't be able to handle two companies.
[10:12] ---
    I know that. If we fight here...
[10:14] ---
    Enemy AS units spotted.
[10:15] ---
    Two units. Bearing 048. Distance 15.
[10:19] ---
    Damn! They really are here!
[10:21] ---
    All units, stop. We're being
    targeted by enemy AS units.
[10:24] ---
    Uruz 6, watch 4:00.
[10:25] ---
    Our altitude is...
[10:26] ---
    Don't go any higher.
[10:28] ---
    Missile warning.
[10:29] ---
    Two RF missiles detected, locked on Gebo 4.
[10:31] ---
    Activate ECM!
[10:32] ---
    Put the blip enhancer on max!
[10:34] ---
    Roger.
[10:40] ---
    I'm taking enemy fire. This is getting bad.
[10:42] ---
    How are things over there?
[10:43] ---
    Almost done. All that's left is...
[10:46] ---
    I see them!
[10:56] ---
    One anti-air installment neutralized.
[10:59] ---
    Escape through the hole
    in their anti-air net.
[11:01] ---
    All Gebo units, did you hear that?
[11:03] ---
    We're pulling out of the
    battle area immediately.
[11:05] ---
    Roger. Uruz 2 and Uruz 6, hurry up
    and dock for the transport choppers.
[11:09] ---
    What about rendezvousing with Uruz 7?
[11:10] ---
    Impossible in the current situation.
[11:11] ---
    Gebo 7 is too badly damaged.
[11:12] ---
    And there's not enough fuel or time left.
[11:14] ---
    Besides, this hole in the anti-air
    net will last a few minutes, tops.
[11:18] ---
    Don't worry about me, go ahead and pull out.
[11:20] ---
    I'll get out on foot.
[11:22] ---
    I'm currently heading to
    the alternate escape route.
[11:24] ---
    You can handle it, right?
[11:25] ---
    Affirmative.
[11:26] ---
    I have homework I need to hand in tomorrow,
[11:29] ---
    so I can't die here.
[11:32] ---
    Okay. Let's meet at the Danaan.
[11:34] ---
    Roger.
[11:35] ---
    You heard that, right?
[11:36] ---
    All units, pull out!
[11:38] ---
    We always end up mooning
    them and then running away.
[11:42] ---
    How uncool.
[12:03] ---
    Gold 2 to all units.
[12:05] ---
    The enemy AS is heading south
    down Revolution Street alone.
[12:09] ---
    Set up a blockade at Point 03-21.
[12:11] ---
    Blue 1, acknowledged.
[12:13] ---
    Blue 1 to all Blue Team units.
[12:15] ---
    Form two lines and await further orders.
[12:17] ---
    You have permission to fire at will.
[12:19] ---
    Inputting designated coordinates.
[12:19] ---
    Good, good. Don't let that white
    AS escape, under any circumstances!
[12:21] ---
    Commencing to open fire.
[12:28] ---
    Shot cannon ammunition remaining: 0.
[12:30] ---
    I know that!
[12:30] ---
    Missile warning. Bearing 128.
[12:38] ---
    Warning. MBT.
[13:03] ---
    What just happened?
[13:04] ---
    Success. Due to the Lambda Driver...
[13:07] ---
    Save the talk for later. Damage report.
[13:09] ---
    Class B damage to the right shoulder.
[13:11] ---
    Malfunction in the stabilizers.
[13:13] ---
    Critical errors in the targeting system.
[13:16] ---
    Uruz 7 to Uruz 2.
[13:18] ---
    Due to enemy presence,
[13:19] ---
    I've abandoned the alternate escape route.
[13:21] ---
    I've only taken minor damage,
    but I'm getting surrounded.
[13:24] ---
    I don't have much ammo left, either.
[13:27] ---
    Uruz 2, do you copy?
[13:31] ---
    This is Uruz 7. Please res-
[13:32] ---
    This is the Tuatha de Danaan.
    Teletha Testerossa speaking.
[13:36] ---
    Uruz 7, do you read me?
[13:38] ---
    Captain...
[13:39] ---
    I have the transport helicopters
    on standby over the sea,
[13:39] ---
    Load SUBLARS into MVLS 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16.
[13:41] ---
    under a communications blackout.
[13:43] ---
    Input coordinates. Commence setting altitude.
[13:43] ---
    Please follow my directions to escape.
[13:47] ---
    Roger.
[13:48] ---
    However, I must apologize.
[13:50] ---
    There were more enemy troops
    than I had expected.
[13:52] ---
    At this point I do not have an escape route.
[13:54] ---
    Oh? I don't think that's quite true...
[13:57] ---
    I've transmitted the data to you.
[13:58] ---
    Please move to the position marked.
[14:01] ---
    There?
[14:02] ---
    But I would be going right into the enemy...
[14:03] ---
    It's okay, just hurry up!
[14:05] ---
    Roger. Over and out.
[14:10] ---
    Depth, 100. 8 knots. We've
    reached the target location.
[14:13] ---
    Very well.
[14:15] ---
    Activate the EMFC in active mode.
[14:17] ---
    Turn 180 degrees and stand by.
[14:19] ---
    Aye, ma'am.
[14:20] ---
    Activate the EMFC.
[14:22] ---
    Steer to port. Set course to 127.
[14:24] ---
    EMFC activated, active mode.
[14:27] ---
    Steering to port. Course set to 127.
[14:29] ---
    Please brace for impact.
[14:31] ---
    Mr. Mardukas, maximum speed on my signal.
[14:34] ---
    Aye, Captain.
[14:36] ---
    Enemy AS is heading from
    Anton Street to Rutpo Bridge.
[14:41] ---
    He's like a trapped rat.
[14:43] ---
    It's payback time for destroying
    my precious weapons.
[14:47] ---
    Uruz 7 to TDDHQ.
[14:50] ---
    ETA to designated location, 2 minutes.
[14:57] ---
    They're playing cat-and-mouse with me.
[14:58] ---
    Warning. 1 AS, 1 IFV, dead ahead. Distance 5.
[15:09] ---
    Chain gun ammunition remaining: 0.
[15:22] ---
    Designated location reached.
[15:27] ---
    This is the 3rd Combined Armored Company.
[15:30] ---
    Silver Team and Copper Team,
[15:32] ---
    Green Team and Yellow Team,
[15:35] ---
    formation complete!
[15:37] ---
    This is the 8th Combined Armored Company.
[15:38] ---
    Gold Team and Platinum Team,
[15:40] ---
    Blue Team and Purple Team,
[15:42] ---
    formation complete!
[15:43] ---
    Sniping team, in position.
[15:45] ---
    All troops are in position.
[15:47] ---
    Good!
[15:48] ---
    This is Uruz 7.
[15:50] ---
    There are large enemy forces
    on both sides of me.
[15:51] ---
    No ammo left.
[15:52] ---
    Escape is impossible.
[15:54] ---
    Recommend abandoning this unit and
    activating the self-destruct mechanism.
[15:56] ---
    Rejected.
[15:57] ---
    I won't be able to get
    my school credits then.
[15:59] ---
    Attention Arm Slave Operator.
[16:01] ---
    Attention Arm Slave Operator.
[16:04] ---
    We have you completely surrounded.
[16:06] ---
    You have nowhere to escape!
[16:06] ---
    Emergency blow!
[16:08] ---
    Aye, ma'am. Emergency Blow.
[16:08] ---
    Open the hatch and surrender!
[16:10] ---
    Main Ballast Tank Blow. Uptrim 5 degrees.
[16:13] ---
    I'll give you to the count of ten!
[16:15] ---
    Ten! Nine!
[16:17] ---
    Eight! Seven!
[16:20] ---
    Six! Five!
[16:21] ---
    Four! Three!
[16:24] ---
    Two! One!
[16:26] ---
    What?!
[16:37] ---
    The Arbalest has been recovered.
[16:39] ---
    Let's give them a little
    "reward" on our way out.
[16:41] ---
    Launch all SUBLARS!
[16:43] ---
    Roger. Launch all SUBLARS!
[16:46] ---
    Launching all SUBLARS. Aye!
[16:48] ---
    Maintain battle speed. Crash dive!
[16:50] ---
    Aye, ma'am. Crash dive!
[17:16] ---
    An amphibious submarine?!
[17:20] ---
    How is that even possible?
[17:21] ---
    Who in the hell are those guys?
[17:41] ---
    "Ii kuni tsukurou."
[17:48] ---
    "Ii kuni tsukurou."
[17:51] ---
    Muromachi shogunate...
[17:51] ---
    It's the Kamakura! The Kamakura!
[17:56] ---
    That's a junior high school question!
[17:58] ---
    How do you expect to pass the
    class like that, Sousuke?
[18:01] ---
    I'm bad at Japanese history.
[18:03] ---
    Not to mention Classics and
    Modern Literature, too.
[18:05] ---
    And stop doing your homework after a mission!
[18:10] ---
    I mean come on, you do something
    straight out of a slick Bond movie,
[18:12] ---
    and you just go right back to the boring
    nitty-gritty of life? It's sad to see!
[18:14] ---
    No can do. I'd fail the class.
[18:16] ---
    Who cares?
[18:18] ---
    Homework is something you
    can just slap together!
[18:20] ---
    Kurz.
[18:22] ---
    That's what you say, but you've
    barely written any of your reports!
[18:25] ---
    Oh, you mean this week's, right?
[18:27] ---
    And last week's too.
[18:29] ---
    The logistics unit keeps bugging me about it.
[18:31] ---
    Try putting yourself in
    my shoes a little bit.
[18:34] ---
    Oh, yeah... It must be rough
    for "Big Sis" Mao, too...
[18:38] ---
    It's all your fault, you know! Yours!
[18:42] ---
    That tickles...
[18:43] ---
    "794 A.D.: Capital transferred to Heiankyo."
[18:50] ---
    We've just passed 15 degrees north latitude.
[18:53] ---
    No ships have been detected following
    us within a 30 mile radius.
[18:59] ---
    Set alert level to Yellow 3.
[19:01] ---
    I will now hand command over
    to the Executive Officer.
[19:03] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[19:05] ---
    Setting alert level to Yellow 3.
[19:07] ---
    Taking over command.
[19:27] ---
    Mr. Sagara?
[19:29] ---
    Captain!
[19:30] ---
    Oh, no, please sit down.
[19:32] ---
    I only came to eat dinner.
[19:35] ---
    But...
[19:35] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[19:37] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[19:41] ---
    Homework?
[19:43] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[19:44] ---
    Is it difficult?
[19:45] ---
    Yes, ma'am. At least to me...
[19:48] ---
    Why don't I teach you?
[19:50] ---
    No! I could never ask you to do such a thing!
[19:53] ---
    Just kidding.
[19:54] ---
    I knew you would say something like that.
[19:57] ---
    But it does look very difficult.
[20:00] ---
    Not at all. It is part
    of my mission, after all.
[20:03] ---
    Mission...
[20:04] ---
    "Important!" "Memorize this
    or die!" "Court-Martial!!"
[20:09] ---
    Captain.
[20:11] ---
    Thank you very much for
    what you did for me today.
[20:13] ---
    You saved my life.
[20:15] ---
    Not at all. It was part
    of my mission, after all.
[20:18] ---
    He's late!
[20:21] ---
    What is that idiot thinking, being out of
    reach for two days straight all of a sudden?!
[20:25] ---
    He's still got the notes I lent him!
[20:27] ---
    I couldn't do my homework!
    What's going on here?!
[20:30] ---
    Calm down, Kana-chan. I'm
    sure Sagara has his reasons.
[20:33] ---
    We should give him a warm welcome back.
[20:36] ---
    No way!
[20:37] ---
    It's like this every single freakin' time!
[20:38] ---
    Oh, Sagara.
[20:41] ---
    Sousuke! Give me back my notes!
[20:44] ---
    What?
[20:45] ---
    Sorry, Chidori. I forgot to bring them.
[20:47] ---
    Forgot? Again?!
[20:49] ---
    Then let's go back and get them, right
    now! They're in your apartment, right?
[20:52] ---
    That's impossible.
[20:53] ---
    Why?
[20:54] ---
    Because I left them in a submarine
    two thousand kilometers away...
[20:56] ---
    "Kaname Chidori"
[20:59] ---
    "Merida Island Conference Room"
[20:59] ---
    This is the anti-air missile used by
[21:01] ---
    government forces to shoot down Tiwaz 12.
[21:04] ---
    It is an improved version of the
    Patriot, loaded with a powerful ECCS.
[21:08] ---
    This means that under the
    appropriate conditions,
[21:11] ---
    our ECS will lose its
    effectiveness against them.
[21:13] ---
    As of right now, only a limited number of
    advanced countries have this kind of missile.
[21:18] ---
    But the Balic Government Army had them.
[21:21] ---
    How are we to interpret this,
    Lieutenant Commander Kalinin?
[21:25] ---
    I can only assume that a
    very powerful organization
[21:27] ---
    independently supplied
    them with the missiles.
[21:31] ---
    That's impressive technology and
    a large amount of funds, then.
[21:33] ---
    Yes.
[21:34] ---
    What's more, there is a possibility
    that they prepared this equipment
[21:37] ---
    in anticipation of our
    intervention in this matter.
[21:40] ---
    So they have intelligence sources, too?
[21:42] ---
    Correct.
[21:43] ---
    And we can't be sure that this is unrelated
    to the seajacking incident, either.
[21:46] ---
    Of course, I doubt the enemy is in a
    position to freely detect all of our movements, but...
[21:52] ---
    They're dangerous.
[21:53] ---
    Indeed.
[21:55] ---
    We must be more cautious
    in future operations.
[21:58] ---
    Otherwise...
[21:59] ---
    I know.
[22:03] ---
    Otherwise, we will all die.
[22:27] ---
    I'm sure you're still looking
[22:29] ---
    Straight ahead to tomorrow
[22:33] ---
    Just like you always have
[22:39] ---
    Just like the sunflowers
[22:45] ---
    That bloomed on that windy hill
[22:53] ---
    No matter how far apart we are
[22:59] ---
    I pray that my singing will reach you
[23:05] ---
    On nights when the tears never seem to stop
[23:11] ---
    I want to be the moon
[23:15] ---
    That shines through your window
[23:18] ---
    Because I believe we will meet again
[23:28] ---
    No matter what
[23:45] ---
    "Next Episode"
[23:47] ---
    Daily life in Tokyo was
    no different than usual.

[23:49] ---
    But I didn't yet know that in the
    shadows of that ephemeral peace,

[23:54] ---
    the wheels of a vast conspiracy
    had started to move.

[23:56] ---
    Next time: "The Situation
    Beneath the Surface."

[23:59] ---
    Dangerous people gather, drawn
    by the smell of gunpowder.
