[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
[00:27] ---
    don't seem likely to forgive me
[00:32] ---
    It may not be long before my turmoil spills out
[00:37] ---
    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?
[01:02] ---
    The rain is unrelenting,
[01:07] ---
    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
[01:46] ---
    The Fuhrer has returned?!
[01:50] ---
    Word is that he destroyed a
    Briggs tank at the main gate.
[01:53] ---
    Take that, lousy Briggs mountain monkeys!
[01:56] ---
    Let's round up the remaining soldiers.
[01:58] ---
    We're going to retake the Operations Center!
[02:02] ---
    The Fuhrer is at the main gate?
[02:08] ---
    Ho... this is the first time I've seen him for myself.
[02:16] ---
    This is the man who took my
    granddaughter's arm, is it?
[02:26] ---
    Oh, yeah? So, you sacrifice
    the general population,
[02:30] ---
    so that you top officials can gain immortality,
[02:33] ---
    and unite the whole world, huh?
[02:38] ---
    And Fuhrer Bradley is also aware of this?
[02:42] ---
    He was created to be this
    country's leader to that end.
[02:47] ---
    Why would we hesitate?
    We were creating a world without war!
[02:50] ---
    But to do so, it would have to perish first?
[02:57] ---
    No, not perish-- be reborn.
[03:00] ---
    What you alchemists would call reconstruction!
[03:04] ---
    We would not be giving death
    to the general population.
[03:07] ---
    They will live on forever, inside us!
[03:10] ---
    And together, we will bring
    the world together as one!
[03:13] ---
    All is one, and one is all!
[03:16] ---
    We, the chosen ones of Amestris,
    will act as one to bring everything--
[03:24] ---
    There you have it. What will you do now?
[03:28] ---
    These guys are only in this for themselves.
[03:31] ---
    Will you leave them to it?
[03:33] ---
    You men, follow me!
[03:35] ---
    Do so, and I will put in a good word for you.
[03:44] ---
    I am a soldier, so I must obey
    the orders of my superiors.
[03:50] ---
    However, to be honest, I'm not
    sure what to believe anymore.
[03:54] ---
    You still can't make up your mind,
    after everything that's happened?
[03:58] ---
    Following a superior that you have no faith in
[04:01] ---
    is not what I'd call loyalty.
[04:03] ---
    It's merely self-deception.
[04:08] ---
    Believe in yourselves.
[04:11] ---
    You just have to choose to live
[04:13] ---
    so as not to bring shame on your own soul, right?
[04:28] ---
    I have a family in the city.
[04:32] ---
    Me, too.
[04:33] ---
    As do I.
[04:52] ---
    Brigadier General, sir...
[04:54] ---
    This is our answer.
[05:03] ---
    Operations, what's the situation?
[05:05] ---
    Not very favorable, sir.
[05:07] ---
    The Central soldiers are getting
    their second wind all over.
[05:10] ---
    Where are you right now, sir?
[05:12] ---
    In the Fuhrer's office.
[05:14] ---
    Any survivors?
[05:16] ---
    We can't contact any of our allies near the office.
[05:19] ---
    There's a good chance that it has
    been surrounded by Central troops.
[05:23] ---
    Understood. If things get too
    dangerous there, get yourselves out.
[05:28] ---
    Leave me here.
[05:32] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[05:34] ---
    Well, once again, this place is full of the enemy.
[05:38] ---
    It's only a matter of time before
    the Central troops regroup,
[05:41] ---
    and start setting foot in here.
[05:43] ---
    Which will mean...
[05:53] ---
    When we get down far enough,
[05:55] ---
    I'll dig an escape tunnel,
    like I did on the way here.
[05:58] ---
    Escape...?
[06:00] ---
    Care to come with us? You could
    use a chance to regroup, right?
[06:26] ---
    We're close.
[06:27] ---
    You think so too, huh?
[06:29] ---
    Can you guys sense his presence?
[06:32] ---
    I'm getting a bad feeling.
[06:35] ---
    I guess you could say my
    uglier old wounds are aching.
[07:00] ---
    Well, well, to think that I
    would have a gallery watching.
[07:04] ---
    You're going to make me nervous.
[07:12] ---
    Who are you?
[07:13] ---
    Who, me?
[07:17] ---
    The man who created King Bradley...
[07:22] ---
    ...I guess you could say.
[07:25] ---
    The Fuhrer?
[07:31] ---
    Which would mean, you're on their side.
[07:34] ---
    Oh, it's you. I thought you
    were at the radio station,
[07:39] ---
    but you've come all the way down here for me.
[07:42] ---
    Thanks, that will save me some trouble,
[07:45] ---
    Mustang.
[07:50] ---
    You guys, take them on for a bit.
[07:56] ---
    W-Who are these guys?!
[07:58] ---
    Mannequin soldiers?!
[08:00] ---
    No, they move decidedly
    differently than those things!
[08:04] ---
    These are the men that might
    have become King Bradley.
[08:11] ---
    Men who were brought together
    as soon as they were born,
[08:15] ---
    and given specialized education and training
[08:18] ---
    for the sole purpose of becoming the Fuhrer.
[08:21] ---
    And on the twelfth trial,
    King Bradley came into being.
[08:28] ---
    Then these men are...
[08:31] ---
    The leftovers. But then,
[08:35] ---
    they have received a great
    deal of combat training.
[08:43] ---
    They're not as strong as King Bradley,
[08:47] ---
    but they are strong.
[09:14] ---
    Damn...
[09:16] ---
    Miserable rebels...
[09:19] ---
    Whoops, I passed out.
[09:25] ---
    --Captain!
    --Oh, right...
[09:29] ---
    If I pull it out, I'll just bleed to death.
[09:38] ---
    Bradley!
[09:47] ---
    Ow!
[09:48] ---
    Watch it, old man!
[09:50] ---
    I didn't do it on purp-- I mean, I didn't mean it!
[09:57] ---
    Why, you!
[10:11] ---
    I do feel more comfortable
    with a weapon like this.
[10:23] ---
    You move well, for someone even older than I am.
[10:27] ---
    However...
[10:29] ---
    ...this is the end for you!
[10:37] ---
    Old man...!
[10:48] ---
    The Xingese prince, huh?
[10:50] ---
    Damn it, Ling!
[10:51] ---
    Don't go popping up on your own!
[10:54] ---
    It's just like the time with
    that girl who lost her arm.
[10:59] ---
    Once again, you risk your life
[11:02] ---
    for something you are unable to leave behind.
[11:05] ---
    Young Lord, cast aside this
    old man, no longer able to fight.
[11:09] ---
    Don't be absurd! Are you
    telling me to be like he is?!
[11:14] ---
    A king is to be for the people,
[11:16] ---
    and there is no king without his people!
[11:19] ---
    He is about to forsake the
    people of his own nation.
[11:23] ---
    That is not what I've set out to be!
[11:28] ---
    A man worthy to be the king?
[11:32] ---
    You must overcome...
[11:35] ---
    Don't talk! You just rest!
[11:50] ---
    Yes, you're right. Rest...
    I will go to my rest now...
[11:57] ---
    Harden yourself, Greed!
    Protect the Young Lord's body!
[12:05] ---
    Young Lord...
[12:06] ---
    ...become the king...
[12:11] ---
    This old man now goes to his eternal rest!
[12:18] ---
    You stupid fool!
[12:23] ---
    I'm taking you to hell with me!
[12:25] ---
    Bradley!
[12:42] ---
    Even with my life on the line,
    I cannot even lay a scratch on him?

[12:50] ---
    Young Lord... forgive my shame...
[12:59] ---
    Even if you do have godlike eyes,
[13:03] ---
    there's no way you can dodge
    an attack you can't see coming!
[13:11] ---
    Old man, I'll accompany you down to hell.
[13:20] ---
    Oh... you have my gratitude...
[13:53] ---
    Grandfather!
[14:07] ---
    Sheesh... You get us stuck in a ditch,
    then run into a lamppost--
[14:10] ---
    you're just a lousy driver, fuzzy-lip!
[14:12] ---
    Shut up! Just be grateful that
    piece-of-junk car made it this far!
[14:18] ---
    We've come this far, let's not fight!
[14:21] ---
    Just hurry up and find us a way underground!
[14:26] ---
    Is that...?
[14:32] ---
    Could that be Colonel Mustang?
[14:34] ---
    I sure hope he's doing all right.
[14:37] ---
    Brother...
[14:40] ---
    Let's hurry.
[14:50] ---
    I know they're supposed to be superhuman,
[14:54] ---
    but come on!
[15:32] ---
    You've left your back wide open, Colonel.
[15:34] ---
    I'm letting my subordinate cover it. It happens.
[15:42] ---
    The gateway of truth...
[15:44] ---
    When an alchemist commits the
    taboo of human transmutation,
[15:50] ---
    they end up opening the gateway of truth.
[15:53] ---
    They also pay the corresponding toll.
[15:57] ---
    You mean the way the Elric
    brothers sacrificed their bodies?
[16:04] ---
    And you?
[16:08] ---
    Part of my insides were taken away.
[16:11] ---
    But after going through all that,
    what I learned was, in fact,
[16:16] ---
    that human transmutation could
    not be successfully performed.
[16:24] ---
    Oh, my, I suppose this topic might
    not be of interest to soldiers, huh?
[16:29] ---
    Not at all.
[16:31] ---
    The people who open the gateway of truth
[16:33] ---
    are the ones they refer to as sacrifices.
[16:37] ---
    That could be a clue as to
    what the enemy is planning.
[16:41] ---
    There was someone you wanted
    to be reunited with so badly
[16:45] ---
    that you would open the gateway of truth,
[16:47] ---
    and sacrifice a portion of your own bodies?
[16:54] ---
    And you?
[16:57] ---
    Is there someone whom you would
    pay any price to see, one more time?
[17:02] ---
    That is indeed a topic of no interest to soldiers.
[17:05] ---
    It is pointless to have
    attachments to those who are dead.
[17:08] ---
    All we can do is fight to keep them from dying.
[17:12] ---
    I suppose that's true.
[17:14] ---
    However...
[17:16] ---
    ...I do understand what you're saying somewhat.
[17:21] ---
    Edward Elric. When I first met him,
[17:24] ---
    I intimidated him into telling
    me everything that he knew,
[17:28] ---
    but he did not say a word about them
[17:30] ---
    holding a childhood friend of his hostage.
[17:34] ---
    All he said was,
[17:36] ---
    "You'll have to guess."
[17:39] ---
    The look in his eye was not that of a soldier,
[17:43] ---
    nor was it that of an alchemist,
    a so-called Dog of the Military.
[17:50] ---
    If I had to describe it,
[17:51] ---
    it was the look of someone
    trying not to lose anything else
[17:54] ---
    that was dear to him, no matter what.
[17:58] ---
    The eyes of a difficult child?
[18:03] ---
    I'd be lying if I said I wasn't
    moved when I looked into his eyes.
[18:08] ---
    However, I'm not sure if his naivety of thought
[18:11] ---
    is going to find us a way out of this fight,
[18:15] ---
    or if it will work against us.
[18:20] ---
    That will do. Now then, shall we get started?
[18:30] ---
    No. 16, No. 17, No. 21,
[18:35] ---
    No. 23, No. 26, come here.
[18:43] ---
    What?!
[18:48] ---
    Here goes!!
[19:04] ---
    What have you done?!
[19:05] ---
    Oh, this is just the first stage.
[19:09] ---
    Do you know how many
    alchemy laboratories there are
[19:12] ---
    under direct prefectural control here in Central?
[19:17] ---
    There are four of them
    currently in use within the city...
[19:20] ---
    No...
[19:25] ---
    The 5th Laboratory... five of them!
[19:29] ---
    A five-cornered transmutation circle!
[19:33] ---
    Don't tell me that curved
    underground passageway...
[19:36] ---
    ...connected the laboratories together in a circle!
[19:54] ---
    What the...?!
[19:59] ---
    What's the matter, Mr. Heinkel?
[20:23] ---
    Izumi...
[20:24] ---
    Mm-hmm, it looks like this is our cue.
[20:30] ---
    I'm going to dig us a hole to
    escape out of through this wall.
[20:34] ---
    Stand back a bit.
[20:35] ---
    Well then, this is where we part ways.
[20:39] ---
    We must remain here, and keep fighting.
[20:43] ---
    From here on is probably where
    the heart of the enemy will be.
[20:47] ---
    We aren't about to pass up
    our chance to storm them.
[20:52] ---
    You guys...
[21:00] ---
    You've been a tremendous help.
[21:03] ---
    Thank you, Izumi Curtis.
[21:06] ---
    Thank you, General Armstron—
[21:39] ---
    What?!
[21:54] ---
    Alphonse!
[21:57] ---
    Izumi!
[22:00] ---
    Izumi!
[22:11] ---
    F-Fullmetal!
[22:22] ---
    Why, you...!
[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
[22:58] ---
    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
[23:13] ---
    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] ---
    Anger is born at the extremities of sorrow,
[24:02] ---
    and when two souls dwell within a single body,
[24:07] ---
    the annihilation begins.
[24:11] ---
    Next time on Hagane no Renkinjutsushi:
    Fullmetal Alchemist,

[24:15] ---
    Episode 58: "Sacrifices."
[24:20] ---
    His cherished desire was to go on
    protecting him, even in death.
