**[00:09] ---**
Moonlight gathered on a blue knife
**[00:16] ---**
The cross shows who
lost a place to go
**[00:23] ---**
For now, with the dream in pieces
**[00:26] ---**
You should go on a journey
**[00:35] ---**
Do you remember that old lullaby?
**[00:41] ---**
A story I left behind long ago
**[00:48] ---**
I'll make it into love
and sing it for you
**[00:56] ---**
Every man is a lonely soldier boy
**[01:01] ---**
Lonely soldier boy carrying
a cross on his back
**[01:07] ---**
The amber colored man's
dream, where is it
**[01:20] ---**
Old Soldiers' Polka
**[01:48] ---**
It feels so great. Motorcycle
riding is awesome!
**[01:51] ---**
Hey, Stig, why don't you ride
without the riding suit?
**[01:55] ---**
It's so uncool.
**[01:57] ---**
I'm a soldier.
**[01:58] ---**
I'm not riding this bike for fun.
**[02:02] ---**
Yes, yes, you're so focused.
**[02:04] ---**
Look, Ray!
**[02:06] ---**
Why is it so bumpy here?
**[02:09] ---**
I heard this area was burned down
**[02:12] ---**
when the First Liberation Force
had a fierce fight with the lnbit.
**[02:16] ---**
Oh, really?
**[02:18] ---**
There's a town over there.
**[02:21] ---**
People built the new town after they
were driven out of the old one.
**[02:25] ---**
They did it with the frontier
spirit of the first settlers.
**[02:29] ---**
Yeah, yeah! I may find a
cool macho guy here.
**[02:32] ---**
Go, go, Ray!
**[02:33] ---**
All right!
**[02:43] ---**
Anybody here?
**[02:45] ---**
We want to buy some
food and munitions.
**[02:49] ---**
What? There's nobody here?!
**[02:51] ---**
A ghost town?
**[02:58] ---**
What?
**[03:13] ---**
She's getting used to them.
**[03:20] ---**
Aisha, who are you really?
**[03:36] ---**
No way, she can't be...
**[03:40] ---**
Aisha!
**[03:41] ---**
What's wrong, Aisha?
Aisha!
**[03:41] ---**
What's wrong, Aisha?
**[03:42] ---**
What's wrong, Aisha?
Do you hear lnbit again?
**[03:42] ---**
Do you hear lnbit again?
**[03:44] ---**
Yes, I can hear that sound.
**[03:48] ---**
Damn, that means there's
a relay tower near here.
**[03:54] ---**
Aisha, come with me.
**[03:56] ---**
I want to know where the enemy is.
**[03:58] ---**
That's too much for her, Yellow.
**[04:00] ---**
The closer Aisha comes to the enemy,
the more pain she feels!
**[04:04] ---**
I know that, but...
**[04:06] ---**
Once we get a supply of weapons,
we need to go forward.
**[04:10] ---**
I know Aisha feels pain, but
this is for everybody.
**[04:13] ---**
Yes!
**[04:15] ---**
What are you doing?
Everybody is bullying us.
Yes!
**[04:15] ---**
What are you doing?
Everybody is bullying us.
**[04:18] ---**
Let me go! Hell!
**[04:19] ---**
Why are you doing this to us?
**[04:21] ---**
There's no reason for you to
treat us this way.
**[04:24] ---**
Shut up!
**[04:25] ---**
Keep your mouth shut if you don't
want to die right here, scoundrels!
**[04:29] ---**
We didn't do anything.
**[04:31] ---**
Wait! There must be
a misunderstanding.
**[04:33] ---**
You'll tell me all about your friends.
**[04:36] ---**
Hey, everybody, take
these guys to the jail!
**[04:39] ---**
Come with me!
**[04:40] ---**
Walk, scoundrels!
**[04:42] ---**
Ouch!
**[04:43] ---**
Divorcee and criminal,
I have no future.
Ouch!
**[04:43] ---**
Divorcee and criminal,
I have no future.
**[04:52] ---**
What's up, Aisha? Do
you hear anything?
**[04:55] ---**
No...
**[04:55] ---**
Aisha, have you remembered
any of your past?
No...
**[04:56] ---**
Aisha, have you remembered
any of your past?
**[04:59] ---**
For example, how you were born.
**[05:04] ---**
Well, Yellow,
**[05:06] ---**
do you remember the
time you were born?
**[05:09] ---**
Ah, no...
**[05:11] ---**
Those eyes cannot cheat people.
**[05:20] ---**
Are you going to Reflex Point,
young man?
**[05:24] ---**
It's like a western movie.
**[05:27] ---**
You better change your mind.
It's not a good date venue.
**[05:32] ---**
We go wherever she wants
to go on our dates.
**[05:39] ---**
He's funny, Franky.
**[05:42] ---**
Beyond here, there are
many lnbit relay towers.
**[05:45] ---**
A weapon like that is not enough
to protect your princess.
**[05:48] ---**
Young man, if you have money,
I can spare weapons and food.
**[05:53] ---**
I'm surprised.
**[05:54] ---**
You're starting to look like
a goddess in a desert.
**[05:57] ---**
Russ! Let's take the customers.
**[06:03] ---**
Yellow...
**[06:04] ---**
Don't worry, Aisha.
Yellow...
**[06:05] ---**
Don't worry, Aisha.
**[06:06] ---**
They seem to have quite a bit
of information about the lnbit.
**[06:17] ---**
Here we are. Come inside.
**[06:30] ---**
What?
**[06:37] ---**
This is...
**[06:39] ---**
A Garfish!
**[06:40] ---**
It might have been called that.
A Garfish!
**[06:41] ---**
It might have been called that.
**[06:43] ---**
Inside here.
**[06:47] ---**
Are you surprised to learn
we're such old men?
**[06:54] ---**
Is he your friend?
**[06:56] ---**
Yes, no ladies just old men.
**[06:59] ---**
Mister, are you a member of the
Descent Unit from Mars?
**[07:03] ---**
Hey!
**[07:06] ---**
Forget about him. Darjeeling won't
answer you.
**[07:10] ---**
He hasn't spoken to anyone for
a few years now, not even us.
**[07:17] ---**
Please, prince and princess.
**[07:30] ---**
Cool your heads, scoundrels!
**[07:33] ---**
I am Stig Bernard of the
21 st Descent Unit,
**[07:37] ---**
Mars squadron of the Second
Liberation Force!
**[07:40] ---**
I stopped here for supplies on
my way to Reflex Point.
**[07:44] ---**
I'm not so kind as to let you guys,
**[07:47] ---**
a group of ex-soldier thieves,
do whatever you want.
**[08:08] ---**
Their motorcycles have been stolen!
**[08:10] ---**
What?
**[08:12] ---**
What's going on?
What?
**[08:12] ---**
What's going on?
**[08:15] ---**
Idiots! Who are you after?
**[08:18] ---**
These bikes belong to us now!
**[08:21] ---**
Our Mospeadas!
**[08:23] ---**
I told you. Let us out of here!
**[08:27] ---**
Bring the horses right now!
**[08:41] ---**
I see. You've survived by selling these.
**[08:45] ---**
Aren't you soldiers just like
the old man outside?
**[08:49] ---**
I don't remember.
**[08:50] ---**
All the younger guys
left for Reflex Point.
I don't remember.
**[08:51] ---**
All the younger guys
left for Reflex Point.
**[08:55] ---**
Haven't heard from them since.
**[08:58] ---**
We're mechanics.
**[09:01] ---**
But we also went out like soldiers.
**[09:05] ---**
To Reflex Point?
**[09:07] ---**
To somewhere between
here and there.
**[09:10] ---**
To reach it, you need to pass many
lnbit relay towers.
**[09:15] ---**
I have only one life, so I decided
to be smart and look after it.
**[09:22] ---**
You're lucky it's me here.
**[09:24] ---**
If Stig heard you say that,
he'd kill you.
**[09:29] ---**
They're back.
**[09:37] ---**
Idiots!
**[09:38] ---**
They'll come here once
they sense the HBT!
**[09:42] ---**
These are big ones! We can
make big money with them.
**[09:48] ---**
Those silly old men get too worked up.
**[09:51] ---**
That's true.
**[09:52] ---**
Young man, you're lucky.
**[09:56] ---**
Look, Yellow!
**[09:58] ---**
Young man, this is
Donald and Pierrot.
**[10:02] ---**
I told you not to call me Pierrot!
**[10:05] ---**
How can you say that? You can't
even remember your own name.
**[10:09] ---**
Stop it!
**[10:15] ---**
He said to not get excited
in front of the enemy.
**[10:16] ---**
Isn't that right, Darjeeling?
**[10:42] ---**
He seems to like you.
**[10:47] ---**
Why don't you stay for a meal?
**[10:48] ---**
You're heading for Reflex
Point after all.
**[10:50] ---**
Let's share a drink as a goodbye.
**[11:09] ---**
Come on, good one!
**[11:11] ---**
Here it comes!
**[11:14] ---**
I've got it!
**[11:18] ---**
Thank you.
**[11:25] ---**
A communications system...
It still looks useable.
**[11:28] ---**
Sometimes it receives
signals from Mars Base,
**[11:30] ---**
but the transmitter circuit
is bad, just like us.
**[11:33] ---**
We can't send messages.
**[11:36] ---**
It's this old man's lullaby.
**[11:38] ---**
I turn it off and he turns it back on.
**[11:46] ---**
A communications system
that can't send messages...
**[11:48] ---**
Just like it, these old men lost
their words and wills to fight
**[11:52] ---**
after their battle against the lnbit.
**[11:56] ---**
What's wrong, Aisha?
**[11:58] ---**
Do you hear the sound again?
**[12:02] ---**
Is there a relay tower near here?
**[12:06] ---**
Wait a minute!
**[12:08] ---**
That girl, is she a friend of the lnbit?
**[12:11] ---**
What?
**[12:12] ---**
Hey, young man!
What?
**[12:12] ---**
Hey, young man!
**[12:13] ---**
Yellow...
**[12:18] ---**
We can't let her tell the
lnbit about this place.
**[12:21] ---**
No!
**[12:23] ---**
Aisha is not working for the lnbit.
**[12:25] ---**
Then why did she notice that sound?
**[12:28] ---**
Aisha lost her memories from the
shock of the lnbit's attack.
**[12:31] ---**
When lnbit get close to her,
she gets very sensitive.
**[12:35] ---**
Don't lie to us! Why are you
taking the lnbit's side?
**[12:40] ---**
I'm not lying!
**[12:52] ---**
Have you calmed down, Aisha?
Don't be afraid.
**[12:56] ---**
Did you look? Franky?
**[12:58] ---**
We shouldn't live too long.
**[13:00] ---**
See, this is the way it is.
**[13:02] ---**
Okay, she's not an lnbit.
**[13:15] ---**
Idiot! Go back later if you leave
something behind.
**[13:19] ---**
In return for the soup, leave it to me.
**[13:24] ---**
Run, old man!
**[13:30] ---**
Stupid! Do you want
to die over this?
**[13:36] ---**
Old man, you are...
**[13:44] ---**
Yellow!
**[13:47] ---**
Hey!
**[13:51] ---**
I did it!
**[13:53] ---**
Good for nothing! Where did you
lose your soldier's pride?
**[13:58] ---**
I haven't heard orders like that
in a long time, Mr. Soldier.
**[14:00] ---**
Are you going to tell us, the silly old
men, to attack the lnbit?
**[14:04] ---**
What?
**[14:05] ---**
Stop it, Stig.
What?
**[14:06] ---**
Stop it, Stig.
**[14:07] ---**
That's enough.
**[14:09] ---**
They've already tried to
attack Reflex Point.
**[14:12] ---**
Their battle is over.
**[14:19] ---**
A communications system?
**[14:23] ---**
This is Earth, this is Earth!
Mars Base, please read me!
**[14:27] ---**
What's so funny?
**[14:29] ---**
It can't send messages, Stig.
**[14:32] ---**
What?
**[14:34] ---**
This is Mars. This is Mars.
**[14:36] ---**
First and Second Liberation units,
please read me!
**[14:38] ---**
We're currently preparing for the
Third Earth Liberation Operation.
**[14:40] ---**
Mars Base! Mars Base! Please
read me! Mars Base!
We're currently preparing for the
Third Earth Liberation Operation.
**[14:42] ---**
Mars Base! Mars Base! Please
read me! Mars Base!
**[14:42] ---**
Mars Base! Mars Base! Please
read me! Mars Base!
There is information that relays near
Reflex Point are increasing.
**[14:44] ---**
There is information that relays near
Reflex Point are increasing.
**[14:47] ---**
Should there be survivors, destroy
these facilities immediately.
**[14:50] ---**
This is Colonel Mienne,
Third Attack Unit.
**[14:53] ---**
This is Colonel Mienne,
Third Attack Unit.
**[14:56] ---**
I will repeat the order...
**[14:58] ---**
Colonel Mienne! Colonel Mienne!
I will repeat the order...
**[15:00] ---**
Colonel Mienne! Colonel Mienne!
**[15:01] ---**
The Third one?!
**[15:03] ---**
Are they telling us to do suicide
bombings? Ridiculous!
**[15:12] ---**
Mars Base! Mars Base!
**[15:50] ---**
Idiot! In such a hurry to die.
**[15:54] ---**
We've been together all this time.
**[16:01] ---**
That's his proud son.
**[16:05] ---**
I heard he's in the elite section
of the military.
**[16:10] ---**
This is Mars! This is Mars!
**[16:11] ---**
Darjeeling, this is your lullaby.
This is Mars! This is Mars!
**[16:11] ---**
Darjeeling, this is your lullaby.
Survivors of the First and Second
Liberation Forces, please read me.
**[16:16] ---**
Damn you! What are you thinking?
**[16:17] ---**
Darjeeling died because of the
orders from this stupid machine.
**[16:21] ---**
Do you think he'd be pleased
to hear such a thing?
**[16:24] ---**
Get off! Damn thing!
**[16:26] ---**
This is the Third Liberation Force
Commander, Colonel Mienne Darjeeling.
Get off! Damn thing!
**[16:26] ---**
This is the Third Liberation Force
Commander, Colonel Mienne Darjeeling.
**[16:30] ---**
Survivors of the first and
second Descent Units,
**[16:32] ---**
I am the commander of the
Third Liberation Force,
**[16:33] ---**
This person...
I am the commander of the
Third Liberation Force,
**[16:34] ---**
This person...
**[16:34] ---**
This person...
Colonel Mienne Darjeeling. Right now...
**[16:35] ---**
Colonel Mienne Darjeeling. Right now...
**[16:41] ---**
Old man...
**[16:43] ---**
He's been waiting alone for the
third unit to come.
**[16:46] ---**
Then why did he do such
a reckless thing?
**[16:50] ---**
He was afraid. He didn't want to
show his son the way he is now.
**[16:54] ---**
Everybody! Let's go.
**[16:55] ---**
Before the Third Liberation
Force arrives,
**[16:57] ---**
we'll destroy as many
towers as we can!
**[17:01] ---**
Beat them up!
**[17:03] ---**
Let's go, Aisha.
**[17:18] ---**
We're always good for nothing!
**[17:21] ---**
Don't get hurt!
**[17:31] ---**
Let's go, Darjeeling!
**[17:35] ---**
Oh, I can't waste it.
**[17:39] ---**
Don't treat me like a stranger,
Mr. Sergeant!
**[17:41] ---**
Don't leave me behind.
**[17:44] ---**
We go together when we die.
**[17:47] ---**
What silly old men!
**[17:50] ---**
We're leaving.
**[17:52] ---**
Yeah!
**[18:19] ---**
Damn!
**[18:25] ---**
Everybody spread out!
**[18:44] ---**
Move over, kids!
This is our trophy.
**[18:47] ---**
Weapons like that are nothing to us.
**[18:49] ---**
Fools! What can they do with
such a broken down ship?
**[18:54] ---**
Here they come, Donald!
**[19:12] ---**
Damn!
**[19:21] ---**
Old man!
**[19:23] ---**
Not yet! Leave us alone!
**[19:27] ---**
We're going to finish this!
**[19:48] ---**
All missiles, safety lock released.
**[19:51] ---**
I'll take care of the rest.
**[19:53] ---**
How's your end, Pierrot?
**[19:55] ---**
Sensing valve is fully open.
It'll detonate soon.
**[19:59] ---**
Franky, Russ! Eject in the capsules.
Don't die!
**[20:03] ---**
We can't do that. These are
as rusty as we are.
**[20:07] ---**
Use reverse jet! Reverse
jet and separate!
**[20:11] ---**
We can't do that either.
**[20:13] ---**
Why not?
**[20:15] ---**
Survive, kids!
**[20:18] ---**
Now I remember my name.
**[20:20] ---**
My name is...
**[20:22] ---**
Bye now...
**[20:37] ---**
Are you happy now? Franky,
Russ, Donald, Pierrot...
**[20:45] ---**
Why, why did they...
**[20:54] ---**
Sad people...
**[21:05] ---**
Repeat... This is Colonel
Mienne Darjeeling.
**[21:08] ---**
Should there be survivors, destroy
the lnbit's relay facilities.
**[21:11] ---**
Should there be survivors, destroy
these immediately.
**[21:26] ---**
The rain makes the skyscrapers
look in the blue haze
**[21:32] ---**
Like the tears you shed
**[21:38] ---**
As if you were making
sure of the invisible bond
**[21:45] ---**
It was hard to see you
looking back so many times
**[21:55] ---**
If you say goodbye is
the final tenderness
**[22:07] ---**
Both of us must have been born
**[22:13] ---**
In the wrong time
**[22:18] ---**
Blue, blue rain in my soul
**[22:24] ---**
Blue, blue rain in my soul
