[00:00] ---
    The days going by are getting in the way
[00:07] ---
    of the new morning I'd found at last
[00:11] ---
    It wasn't "next" that I was headed toward,
[00:16] ---
    but "bygone" that I was always chasing after
[00:22] ---
    My incessant, merciless memories
[00:26] ---
    don't seem likely to forgive me
[00:32] ---
    It may not be long before my turmoil spills out
[00:36] ---
    down cheeks wearied by my fumbling about
[00:41] ---
    Will the rain ever stop?
[00:46] ---
    I've been cold for such a long time
[00:51] ---
    Why does the rain choose me?
[00:57] ---
    Can I wrap myself up in it?
[01:01] ---
    The rain is unrelenting,
[01:06] ---
    and it's still coming down today,
[01:12] ---
    but tenderly, under an extended umbrella,
[01:17] ---
    we share our warmth as we huddle close
[01:37] ---
    Huh? That's strange. I'm sure it was this way--
[01:42] ---
    no, that way?
[01:44] ---
    Are you lost, Fullmetal?
[01:46] ---
    Los-- Shut up!
[01:48] ---
    If I hadn't come back to make sure that
    a certain nitwit wasn't goofing around,
[01:51] ---
    this wouldn't be happening!
[01:53] ---
    Nobody asked you to come back.
[01:56] ---
    Get out of here!
[01:57] ---
    If it weren't for me and Scar, you
    definitely would have lost your way!
[02:01] ---
    Don't you patronize me.
[02:04] ---
    It was thanks to the lieutenant
[02:05] ---
    that I was able to regain control back there.
[02:07] ---
    What?!
[02:08] ---
    Keep it down. The enemy will find us.
[02:15] ---
    Scar... I want to offer my thanks now, while I can,
[02:18] ---
    for persuading the colonel.
[02:24] ---
    I know that it probably just upsets you Ishvalans
[02:27] ---
    to have someone like me say thank you,
[02:32] ---
    but you may have brought him back...
[02:37] ---
    ...to who he once was.
[02:46] ---
    Thank you.
[02:53] ---
    Your words of gratitude are not needed.
[03:06] ---
    Yes, sir! Yes, sir! Copy that!
[03:09] ---
    Hey, we can stop shooting! Cease fire!
[03:17] ---
    Attention Central soldiers!
    Attention Central soldiers!
[03:21] ---
    Briggs forces have taken the Operations Center!
[03:24] ---
    --Curse those rebels!
    --We have 13 men in our custody,
    including General Cremin. Repeat,
[03:29] ---
    Briggs forces have taken the Operations Center!
[03:33] ---
    All Central soldiers, cease hostilities immediately!
[03:37] ---
    We have General Cremin in custody!
[03:41] ---
    So the reason you were
    blasting away with your tank
[03:43] ---
    was to cover the sound of you
    digging your hole with alchemy?!
[03:48] ---
    That's right.
[03:54] ---
    What was that? I didn't copy!
[03:58] ---
    --What?! Are you sure?!
    --What is it?
[04:01] ---
    The Operations Center has fallen to Briggs forces!
[04:04] ---
    They've apparently captured General Cremin!
[04:08] ---
    Operations Center, is Buccaneer there?
[04:11] ---
    Captain!
[04:13] ---
    There are a large number of pale,
[04:15] ---
    one-eyed, humanoid monsters on the loose!
[04:17] ---
    Not only are they hard to kill,
    they are man-eaters!
[04:21] ---
    No matter what happens,
    do not open any of the gates!
[04:25] ---
    We cannot allow a single one
    of those things out into the city!
[04:29] ---
    Exterminate them within the
    walls of the command center!
[04:33] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[04:36] ---
    For the love of... What is Cremin doing?
[04:40] ---
    From here on, I am in command.
[04:43] ---
    As of right now, this is the Operations Center!
[04:53] ---
    The Fuhrer's chair...
[04:57] ---
    If we get through this crisis, I will be...
[05:12] ---
    There are still more of them coming out?
[05:19] ---
    G-General, what in the world are these things?
[05:23] ---
    They're called the Immortal Legion.
[05:25] ---
    They were created by placing
    human souls inside mannequins.
[05:29] ---
    Soldiers who have no fear of death.
[05:32] ---
    Someday, you recruits will
    probably end up as one of these.
[05:46] ---
    He's still moving?!
[05:48] ---
    How many times does he have to be killed?!
[05:50] ---
    In that case, once more!
[06:00] ---
    What tenacity.
[06:04] ---
    No!
[06:11] ---
    --Major!
    --General Armstrong!
[06:14] ---
    Keep back!
[06:17] ---
    We are the ones he is after! Keep your distance!
[06:29] ---
    Kill... the obstinate... woman general...
[06:39] ---
    Pull!
[06:50] ---
    Dig in!
[06:56] ---
    Both of you, please run, now, while you can!
[06:59] ---
    Wha...?
[07:01] ---
    This way, sirs, quickly!
[07:03] ---
    Come, Major!
[07:06] ---
    You would have me run away?
[07:11] ---
    You would have me flee from
    the battlefield once again?!
[07:15] ---
    There is no way that I could do such a thing!
[07:47] ---
    You're determined not to run. Nice.
[07:51] ---
    You're a fine man. But then,
    my husband is a hundred times finer.
[07:59] ---
    Who are you?
[08:01] ---
    Hmm? A woman officer...
[08:04] ---
    That must mean you're General Armstrong.
[08:08] ---
    Your subordinate, the one with the
    mohawk, asked me to come help you.
[08:14] ---
    Who asked him?
[08:17] ---
    What a bother...
[08:31] ---
    Coming at you, dear!
[08:33] ---
    Right!
[08:47] ---
    Who is that gentleman?
[08:49] ---
    My husband.
[09:09] ---
    Valor a hundredfold! Muscle a thousandfold!
[09:46] ---
    Ow...
[09:58] ---
    He's still moving?!
[10:10] ---
    I'm... dying...?
[10:14] ---
    I'm dying...
[10:16] ---
    What is dying...?
[10:19] ---
    Too much bother... to think...
[10:24] ---
    Too much bother... to live...
[10:29] ---
    ...too...
[10:42] ---
    --Major!
    --Major!
[10:56] ---
    All that remain now are those scrawny small fry.
[10:58] ---
    Give it all you've got to exterminate them!
[11:00] ---
    Yes, sir!
[11:07] ---
    Sorry, I need a little breather.
[11:09] ---
    Yes, sir! Please, let us take it from here!
[11:15] ---
    I don't know who you are,
    but I'm grateful for the help.
[11:19] ---
    My pleasure.
[11:22] ---
    You must be a well-renowned martial artist.
[11:25] ---
    Me? No, no, just a housewife, and an alchemist.
[11:30] ---
    You know the Elric brothers, right?
    We're as close as family.
[11:35] ---
    Then you must be Izumi Curtis.
[11:38] ---
    That's me.
[11:39] ---
    Are the Elric brothers here, too?
[11:41] ---
    Yes, they should be here.
[11:51] ---
    Now then, shall we take care of
    the remaining mannequin soldiers?
[11:56] ---
    Can you stand, Sister?
[11:58] ---
    Of course I can.
[12:00] ---
    Hold on, now. Sit back down. With your injuries...
[12:06] ---
    We adults can't very well be caught lying down
[12:09] ---
    while the youngsters are fighting.
[12:12] ---
    What if we adults, who carry
    the burden of this world,
[12:15] ---
    failed to show the youngsters,
[12:18] ---
    who will carry the burden of this
    world after us, the way to live?
[12:25] ---
    Well then, why don't we give you a hand, as well?
[12:27] ---
    Oh, thank you.
[12:29] ---
    The two of you together have
    the strength of a hundred men.
[12:33] ---
    Oh, no, don't expect too much.
[12:36] ---
    Apparently, I'm what they call a "sacrifice."
[12:40] ---
    After I've done a limited amount
    of fighting, I'm flying the coop.
[12:45] ---
    Before the really bad guy catches me.
[13:02] ---
    This is an emotional reunion. Why so sullen?
[13:08] ---
    You're no fun anymore.
[13:13] ---
    Long ago, you were full of feeling, and interesting.
[13:20] ---
    Lust, greed, sloth, gluttony, envy, wrath, pride...
[13:29] ---
    They say that man has seven sins.
[13:33] ---
    Sure, excessive appetites will ruin a person,
[13:36] ---
    but at the same time, each of
    those feelings are imperative
[13:40] ---
    if one is to understand humanity.
[13:44] ---
    Why did you sever yourself from them?
[13:55] ---
    Sheesh, watch it!
[14:08] ---
    Listen to me!
[14:12] ---
    You're kidding!
[14:20] ---
    Cut it out. I'm not very good at fighting.
[14:46] ---
    Answer me! Why did you create the Homunculi,
[14:49] ---
    keep them at your side,
    and have them call you "Father"?!
[14:55] ---
    When you were still in your flask,
[14:58] ---
    you even put down the community of the family!
[15:03] ---
    When actually, you wanted a family,
    like humans have, didn't you?
[15:29] ---
    Where is he? He's not planning to stay withdrawn
[15:31] ---
    until the nationwide transmutation
    circle is activated, is he?

[15:41] ---
    I do not wish to become human.
[15:45] ---
    I wish to become a perfect being.
[15:51] ---
    I will have the Philosopher's
    Stone that is inside you!
[16:13] ---
    Your expression has finally changed, huh?
[16:19] ---
    What did you do?
[16:21] ---
    I just did what you wouldn't.
[16:26] ---
    You probably don't understand.
[16:28] ---
    You've cast aside something else
    important, besides your feelings.
[16:33] ---
    Something important?
[16:36] ---
    Don't think you're going to
    win so easily. Not against us!
[16:47] ---
    It's no use. The tire is completely caught.
[16:51] ---
    What are you doing, fuzzy-lip?!
[16:53] ---
    If we don't hurry, the eclipse is going to start!
[16:56] ---
    Shut up! Hurry and lift the car out!
[16:59] ---
    Good grief...
[17:05] ---
    Mr. Marcoh, please keep back.
    Mr. Heinkel and I can handle this.
[17:10] ---
    Yes, but...
[17:12] ---
    We're fine. Let us take care of it.
[17:15] ---
    Okay then, here we go.
[17:17] ---
    One, two, three...!
[17:31] ---
    Turn yourselves in at the
    Operations Center! Move it!
[17:34] ---
    R-Right!
[17:35] ---
    Thank you very much!
[17:39] ---
    You know, with these mannequin soldiers
[17:42] ---
    taking out so many of the Central troops for us,
[17:44] ---
    taking control is no sweat.
[17:55] ---
    Let's keep on going and take the main gate!
[17:58] ---
    Yes, sir!
[18:10] ---
    We're not even going to get a chance.
[18:15] ---
    Why, you... Why, you...! How come?!
[18:20] ---
    I thought you were created to obey our orders!
[18:24] ---
    Does this mean the good gentleman lied to us?!
[18:29] ---
    S-Stay back!
[18:32] ---
    I'm not one of the ones who
    were supposed to die here!
[18:51] ---
    I don't know who you are, but well done!
[18:54] ---
    Join my security detail,
    and I will give you special...
[19:01] ---
    I wonder if you might tell me more
    about this "good gentleman"?
[19:18] ---
    This place is a mess.
[19:26] ---
    Are you going to take command here?
[19:31] ---
    I can't fathom why anyone would sit in a place
[19:33] ---
    where they would be so easily shot at.
[19:35] ---
    --Let's go.
    --Y-Yes, sir!
[19:39] ---
    Sister!
[19:43] ---
    Where does this passageway go?
[19:45] ---
    It appears to lead downward for quite a ways.
[19:51] ---
    Is that the opening from which
    the mannequin soldiers came?
[19:54] ---
    If it is, it might link up underground.
[19:57] ---
    Yes.. Yes... Acknowledged.
[20:01] ---
    Sir, Buccaneer Squad has
    taken control of the main gate!
[20:05] ---
    There was little resistance,
    and our casualties are few.
[20:08] ---
    We also control the main entrance!
[20:10] ---
    They've secured tanks,
    and are taking up positions!
[20:15] ---
    Buccaneer Squad, maintain your current status.
[20:18] ---
    Please be absolutely sure not to open the gates
[20:21] ---
    until every last mannequin soldier
    on the grounds has been expelled.
[20:24] ---
    Copy that.
[20:26] ---
    This is the west gate. Briggs'
    White Squad has taken control!
[20:30] ---
    North Gate. Black Squad now has control!
[20:33] ---
    Blue Squad controls the east gate!
[20:35] ---
    Yellow Squad has secured the weapons depot.
[20:38] ---
    You heard them, General Armstrong!
[20:42] ---
    Briggs forces now control 9/10ths
    of the Central Command Center.
[20:47] ---
    We are victorious!
[20:54] ---
    We won!
[21:07] ---
    The colonel didn't get here in time.
[21:22] ---
    Gentlemen, I'm back.
[21:27] ---
    Things have been quite astir
    while I've been away, haven't they?
[21:33] ---
    As of now, I am personally taking
    command, and will oust these rebels.
[21:39] ---
    All available Central forces, give me a hand.
[21:44] ---
    King Bradley!
[21:47] ---
    He's alive?!
[21:50] ---
    Where is he?! Where is he attacking from?!
[22:05] ---
    All salute His Excellency, the Fuhrer!
[22:38] ---
    Ever since that day,
[22:41] ---
    I had made up my mind not to cry
[22:46] ---
    Though the pain kept coming,
[22:51] ---
    there was something I couldn't forgive
[22:57] ---
    There's no going back after all these days
[23:02] ---
    There's still nothing I can do
[23:07] ---
    I'm losing yet another fragment
[23:12] ---
    of my memories of you
[23:19] ---
    I want to be stronger than I am today
[23:24] ---
    so that my voice may someday reach you
[23:29] ---
    I'll keep walking, and when the wind lets up,
[23:34] ---
    I'll gaze up into the sky, searching for you
[23:40] ---
    The light will shine after the day breaks
[23:47] ---
    and there will be a rainbow
[23:58] ---
    What is wrought by the king's blade
[24:01] ---
    is destruction and slaughter,
    violation and despair.

[24:05] ---
    With overwhelming power, he lays
    waste to all who stand in his way.

[24:11] ---
    Next time on Hagane no Renkinjutsushi:
    Fullmetal Alchemist,

[24:16] ---
    Episode 56: "The Return of the Fuhrer."
[24:22] ---
    The place where I come home to is the battlefield.
