    It's you, isn't it?
[01:58] Sak
    What's wrong, Shogun-sama?
[02:00] Sak
    Weren't you tryin' ta get in touch
    with your retainers on Earth?
[02:08] Sak
    Hello. I'm Sakamoto
    Tatsuma, of the Kaientai.
[02:13] Sak
    For reasons, I'm workin'
    with the shogun right now.
[02:17] Sak
    Don't worry. He's perfectly fine.

[02:42] G
    The comms have been restored.
[02:44] G
    What's going on?
[02:46] G
    Don't tell me, old man Gengai...
[02:48] G
    If the enemy's weapons start
    working again, we're done for!
[02:50] Hij
    Hurry!
[02:51] Hij
    No matter what, we must find Gengai
    and free him from the enemy!
[02:56] Gin
    Calm down, you guys.
[02:59] Gin
    That geezer ain't the type to
    become the enemy's puppet.
[03:03] Gin
    He'll die quietly for us.
[03:04] Shin
    Don't kill him off!
[03:06] Gin
    Don't worry.
[03:07] Gin
    He's a surprisingly good communicator,
[03:09] Gin
    so he'll do fine in space or in hell.
[03:11] Shin
    Stop killing him off already!
[03:13] Gin
    In more pressing matters,
[03:16] Gin
    I need to take some Hepa,
    and I need you to get me a sick bag.
[03:18] Gin
    Wait a second. Don't shake me so much.
[03:21] Gin
    I feel sick...
[03:24] Hij
    Hey! Why would you drink
    until you puke during a war?!
[03:27] Gin
    I figured this was the save
    point before the last boss, too.
[03:32] Gin
    I was planning on recovering all my HP.
[03:34] Gin
    But when I woke up, I found myself
    rolling in a pit of poison.
[03:37] Gin
    My status screen had turned green.
[03:39] Gin
    Real life doesn't have save points.
[03:42] Gin
    Life is all about how your hitbox
    grows larger with each step you take.
[03:46] Gin
    In the first place, do you have
    proof the geezer was abducted?
[03:50] Oki
    He was caught when he took an outdoor
    dump and was immobile due to no TP.
[03:54] Oki
    There was an unfinished
    sht left on the scene.
[03:58] Oki
    And yet there was no sign he wiped.
[04:00] Gin
    So that means he was taken somewhere
    with sht still stuck to his ass.
[04:04] Gia
    What the hell? That's the most
    useless deduction ever.
[04:06] Gia
    Can you stake your gramps's name on it?
    Wouldn't you be ashamed to face him?
[04:09] Shin
    Even if so, maybe Gengai-san left us a clue.
[04:15] Oki
    A clue, huh?
[04:18] Shin
    I see.
[04:21] Shin
    Looks like we've hit the jackpot.
[04:24] Shin
    Okita-san, that's just sht.
    We've sht the jackpot.
[04:27] Oki
    Take a closer look.
[04:30] Shin
    The shts are in regular intervals?
[04:32] Oki
    He must've left these markers
    for us so we could find him.
[04:37] Shin
    What kind of Hansel and Gretel is that?
[04:39] Oki
    If we follow these, we should find Gengai.
[04:43] Hij
    Hey, Sogo, can you stake your
    gramps's name on it? You can, right?
[04:48] Gin
    It's probably some stray dog's poop.
[04:50] Shin
    Isn't this a bit too orderly for that?
[04:52] Hij
    And can one person really poop this much?
[04:55] Oki
    He might be in danger.
[04:57] Oki
    Let's hurry.
[05:03] Kon
    I guess I drank too much since
    I saw her after so long.
[05:07] Kon
    I was going to pretend it never happened,
[05:10] Kon
    but I believed that you guys would notice.
[05:15] Kon
    Did you buy spare underwear for me?
[05:20] Kon
    Toshi!
[05:21] Oki
    Oops. It was just a stray gorilla.
[05:23] Hij
    Yeah, that was a stray gorilla.
    There was no human there.
[05:26] Hij
    Got that, you guys?
[05:27] Shin
    I mean, sure, but are you okay with
    your leader being a stray gorilla?
[05:32] Shin
    But what now? We're out of leads again.
[05:37] Hij
    Hey, look at that.
[05:39] Shin
    Blood stains? Don't tell me...
[05:42] Hij
    This might be the clue Gengai left us.
[05:45] Shin
    No... You mean Gengai-san is...
[05:47] Hij
    Dunno, but we need to hurry.
    That much is for sure.
[05:51] Oki
    Hijikata-san,
[05:52] Oki
    can you stake gopchang on that?
SIGN    Gopchang (Small Intestines)
[05:54] Hij
    Why do I have to stake gopchang?
    Let me stake my gramps's name, too!
[05:58] Shin
    Look, the blood's gradually increasing!
[06:01] Hij
    This is bad! Hurry!
[06:06] Zen
    I-I drank too much and had
    a hemorrhoid explosion.
[06:10] Zen
    But I believed that you
    would definitely notice.
SIGN    Poraginol A
[06:14] Zen
    Please apply this to my ass.
[06:19] Hij
    Hey!
[06:20] Hij
    Your drinking party has left everyone in
    tatters, their lower halves in particular!
[06:24] Gin
    Don't try to worm out of it with a jab.
[06:25] Gin
    Your deduction was off the mark, so
    hurry up and bring out the gopchang.
[06:28] Hij
    Make him bring out his gramps first!
[06:30] Oki
    Sorry, Hijikata-san,
[06:32] Oki
    my gramps died a long time ago,
    so you hurry up and die, too.
[06:36] Hij
    What kind of logic is that? You guys
    have no right to speak of deductions!
[06:39] Shin
    Enough already! This isn't the time!
[06:43] Hij
    We'll have to use the comms and have
    people check every nook and cranny.
[06:47] Kag
    This way.
[06:50] Shin
    Kagura-chan?
[06:51] Oki
    You have an idea where he might be?
[06:55] Kag
    Trust my instincts.
[06:58] Kag
    It's on nights like these that the
    rabbits of the night turn into hunters.
[07:06] En
    Oh? He still has his ears and nose, I see.
[07:10] Y
    It's easy to tell if torture will work*
    on someone by looking at their face.
[07:16] Gen
    Hey.
[07:18] Gen
    You the leader of the Liberation
    Army? I finally get to talk to you.
[07:23] Gen
    As you can see, the comms are back up.
[07:26] Gen
    I wanted to get a good look at your face,
[07:29] Gen
    so I set the virus up to go light.
[07:31] Gen
    But the nanomachines won't stop.
[07:35] Gen
    You guys won't get anywhere close to Earth.
[07:38] Gen
    Because I don't know how
    to stop them, either.
[07:43] En
    I figured.
[07:45] En
    But that goes the same for us.
[07:48] En
    We cannot stop anymore.
[07:51] En
    We, the Altana Liberation Army,
[07:54] En
    gathered and took up arms to free
    planets from the Tendoshu's clutches.
[07:58] En
    If any planet refuses to accept our crusade,
[08:01] En
    if any planet decides to fight us,
[08:03] En
    we will grant their wish.
[08:06] En
    Earth, and all of the insects living on it,
[08:10] En
    will be reduced to space dust!
[08:15] Shi
    Forgive me.
[08:16] Shi
    I forced you guys to commit treason, too.
[08:20] G
    It's fine, sir.
[08:22] Shi
    Did anything happen while I was in prison?
[08:26] G
    Admiral, Prince Ensho is...
[08:29] Sak
    We will now work with Admiral Shijaku,
[08:33] Sak
    as well as his home planet, Okoku,
[08:35] Sak
    and Okoku's Prince Dragonia.
[08:37] Sak
    and Stup—I mean Prince Hata,
[08:41] Sak
    and take over the Heavenly Bird,
    mothership of the Liberation Army's fleet.
[08:46] Sak
    There's still a huge numerical disadvantage,
[08:49] Sak
    but we're already on the mothership.
[08:51] Sak
    If we use this situation ta our
    advantage, things could work out.
[08:55] ---
    So please pass on a message
    ta the guys fightin' on Earth:
[08:59] ---
    "Hang in there just a bit longer.
[09:02] ---
    And let's stay alive and
    meet on Earth for sure."
[09:08] ---
    Will that do, Shogun-sama?
[09:12] Shi
    What?!
[09:13] Shi
    I-Is that true?
[09:15] Sak
    Admiral?
[09:17] Sak
    What's wrong?
[09:19] Shi
    I'm sorry,
[09:21] Shi
    my friends from Earth.
[09:24] Shi
    Everything was too late.
[09:29] En
    Weapon of destruction,
    the Flame of Kagutsuchi.
[09:33] En
    The Heavenly Bird is but a
    platform for this massive weapon.
[09:37] En
    Since it has the power to
    destroy a planet in one shot,
[09:41] En
    it was deemed a forbidden weapon
    and sealed away for ages...
[09:46] Shi
    But we brought it back when
    we started our crusade.
[09:50] Shi
    The Flame of Kagutsuchi has
    already begun preparing to fire.
[09:57] Shi
    In other words,
[09:58] Shi
    six hours from now, that blue planet
    will be gone from the universe.
[10:05] Gen
    If you can't get close to Earth,
[10:08] Gen
    you'll finish things off
    with one shot from space?
[10:11] Gen
    After making so many sacrifices in this
    war, you want to reduce it to nothing?
[10:16] Gen
    Along with your comrades still on this
    planet, who joined you in your cause?
[10:22] En
    That's the reason.
[10:24] En
    To ensure that our comrades'
    sacrifices aren't in vain,
[10:27] En
    our crusade cannot end in a loss.
[10:30] En
    Our comrades on Earth would be glad to
    become the foundation for our victory.
[10:38] G
    Prince, what exactly are we fighting?
[10:43] G
    Destroy a planet along
    with our comrades on it?
[10:45] G
    Wouldn't that make us the
    same as the Tendoshu?
[10:50] G
    Please stop, Prince.
[10:53] G
    This is no crusade!
[10:56] En
    Just cause is but an excuse readied for
    weaklings who can't fight without a reason.
[11:05] En
    I knew all along
[11:07] En
    that defeating the Tendoshu won't
    bring back what we've lost.
[11:13] En
    Then why do we fight?
[11:17] En
    Isn't it because that's the
    only thing we have left?
[11:25] En
    Having lost even our means to
    soothe our hatred and sorrow,
[11:31] En
    all we can do is keep burning
    them in the flames of war.
[11:36] En
    It is as you see.
[11:38] En
    We're prepared to walk over the
    corpses of our comrades to fight...
[11:43] G
    Prince!
[11:44] Sak
    Run!
[11:49] Shi
    There's no time!
[11:50] Shi
    Or any shot at victory!
[11:52] Sak
    So what?
[11:54] Sak
    Whether we have a shot at victory or not,
    what we must do remains the same!
[12:09] Sak
    Yeah. It changes nothing.
[12:12] Sak
    Whoever said bushido is found in
    death was right on the money.
[12:18] G
    The reinforcements from
    Planet Okoku have arrived.
[12:20] Kat
    Good.
[12:22] Kat
    Deploy at the edge of the Liberation
    Army's radar net at once.
[12:26] Kat
    Lure the enemy fleet as far away
    from its mothership as possible.
[12:29] Kat
    We'll use that chance to raid the
    mothership with our stealth ship.
[12:33] Hata
    Why is this happening?
[12:35] Kat
    So says Prince Dragonia.
[12:39] Sak
    Even if the end will arrive in one second,
[12:43] Sak
    live your life so you
    don't leave any regrets.
[12:46] Sak
    That's the samurai way.
[12:54] Gin
    I will never drink again!
[12:59] Soy
    Sakamoto-san...
[13:01] Soy
    Sakamoto-san!
[13:04] Soy
    Sakamoto-san! Sakamoto-san!
[13:10] NbNb
    Rest assured.
[13:12] NbNb
    I will protect Edo and our
    country, no matter what.
[13:18] NbNb
    That's what your brother would say, right?
[13:27] NbNb
    That's what a real shogun would say.
[13:29] NbNb
    Unfortunately, I have neither the
    right nor the capability to do so,
[13:35] NbNb
    but I do have the right to act
    as the country's stepping stone.
[13:40] NbNb
    So many people died failing to
    protect what they wished to protect,
[13:44] NbNb
    and I have the right to die for
    the things they left behind.
[13:53] NbNb
    Forgive me.
[13:58] Soy
    I won't forgive you.
[14:01] Soy
    Unless you come back alive,
[14:07] Soy
    I won't forgive you.
[14:10] Soy
    Come back here, accompany
    me to Brother's grave,
[14:16] Soy
    and report to him that we protected Edo.
[14:19] Soy
    If you don't...
[14:24] Soy
    I'll never forgive you!
[14:33] Y
    That prince came up with
    quite the interesting plan.
[14:38] Y
    To think he would threaten us, too...
[14:41] Y
    Let the Liberation Army on Earth know.
[14:44] G
    "HQ has abandoned us.
[14:47] G
    If you want to avoid dying with Earth,
[14:50] G
    you only have two options:
[14:52] G
    either do something about
    the nanomachine virus,
[14:55] G
    or bring down this country by dawn"?
[14:59] G
    Elder Son, what shall we do?
[15:07] Son
    Isn't it obvious?
[15:09] Son
    We'll survive and kill that brat.
[15:12] Son
    Gengai, you say you don't have the
    means to stop the nanomachine virus,
[15:17] Son
    but what if I say it can be
    the means to kill that prince?
[15:26] En
    How pitiful.
[15:28] En
    They are Earth's last hope?
[15:31] G
    I-Is this an error?
[15:33] En
    What's the matter?
[15:34] G
    The radar is detecting several
    ships behind the Heavenly Bird.
[15:38] G
    But there's no way such a
    large army could be here...
[15:42] Hata
    It's no error.
[15:45] Hata
    Members of the Liberation Army,
[15:47] Hata
    your actions toward Earth are nothing but
    an invasion in the name of liberation!
[15:54] Hata
    Even if the universe will stand
    for this savagery, we will not!
[16:00] Hata
    Planet Okoku's...
[16:02] Hata
    ...Gramps says he won't stand for it.
[16:04] Jii
    Wh-Why, you!
[16:05] Jii
    Why are you trying to blame someone else
    and save your skin now, Prince Hog?
[16:09] Hata
    But I haven't done anything!
[16:11] Hata
    I was just suddenly carried off and
    told to read this note out loud!
[16:15] Jii
    Then I've done practically
    nothing all these years!
[16:18] Jii
    All I did was grow my beard!
    I was just a walking corpse!
[16:21] Hata
    Do some damn work!
[16:23] Hata
    How'd things end up like this, anyway?
[16:25] Hata
    Who was it that said we'd fight?
    He can read the note!
[16:28] Jii
    Which one of you said we'd fight?
[16:30] Jii
    Raise your hand! I won't yell at you!
[16:33] Hata
    Fine. Everyone close your eyes.
[16:35] Hata
    I'll close mine, too.
[16:37] Hata
    Only the Liberation Army needs to know.
[16:39] Jii
    Don't peek. No cheating, okay?
[16:42] Jii
    Whoever stole the lunch money, fess up!
[16:44] Hata
    Not the lunch money bit!
[16:45] Mad
    No fair! That was a fake-out?
[16:47] Mad
    You all said you'd keep your eyes closed!
[16:49] Hata
    There was a lunch money thief among us!
[16:51] Mad
    Not exactly lunch money.
[16:52] Mad
    You only fed me dog food, so I just stole
    some of your pudding from the fridge!
[16:56] Hata
    I was wondering why my royal pudding
    always went missing! It was you?
[17:00] Mad
    Shut it!
[17:00] Mad
    You get to eat amazing food every
    day, so quit whining over pudding!
[17:04] Jii
    Prince, let me handle this punk.
[17:06] Jii
    How dare you steal my one job?!
[17:08] Jii
    Give back my pudding!
[17:10] Hata
    You ate them, too?!
[17:15] G
    Follow the prince!
[17:17] G
    Open intercepting fire!
[17:30] Kat
    So it begins. I hope they
    manage to escape later.
[17:35] Kat
    Then shall we go, too?
[17:39] Kat
    I hope you're all ready.
[17:41] G
    Katsura-san, you needn't ask now.
[17:44] G
    We'll expel the aliens threatening
    our country to protect it.
[17:47] G
    We are...
[17:50] Kat
    I am...
[17:52] Kat
    Joi Rebel Katsura Kotaro!
[17:55] Kat
    I swear on my name that I shall deliver
    divine judgment upon the Liberation Army!
[18:00] Kat
    Let's go!
[18:09] En
    Beautiful.
[18:14] En
    Such a pure, beautiful light.
[18:19] En
    There's no doubt about it.
[18:22] En
    This is a crusade.
[18:27] Hij
    Earth will blow in six hours?
[18:30] Hij
    Is that why the Liberation
    Army's on the move again?
[18:34] Mat
    I didn't expect them to give their troops
    a kick up their backside this way.
[18:38] Hij
    Is there anything we can do, Pops?
[18:40] Mat
    Well, are there any cabaret clubs still open?
[18:43] Hij
    Don't go giving up!
[18:45] Mat
    No! I'm sure there are cabaret girls
    who will fight until the world ends.
[18:50] Hij
    I wasn't talking about them!
[18:51] Mat
    Toshi, giving up isn't such a bad thing.
[18:55] Mat
    You guys throw Earth aside
    and go rescue Gengai!
[18:59] Hij
    Earth is the one thing we
    shouldn't throw aside!
[19:03] Gin
    It's not like you'll throw it at nobody.
[19:09] Gin
    I don't know if they're worthy of
    being tasked with saving the world,
[19:13] Gin
    but there are some guys who are
    even more persistent than us...
[19:17] Gin
    There's a guy who won't sit back
    and watch the world be destroyed.
[19:21] Gin
    That's for sure.
[19:24] Kat
    What's going on?
[19:25] G
    We've been hit!
[19:26] Kat
    No... Does the enemy mothership have
[19:29] Kat
    some scouting function that
    surpasses our stealth function?!
[19:34] Kat
    Don't falter!
[19:35] Kat
    Charge in!
[19:39] Shi
    Hurry this way!
[19:43] Shi
    Fall back!
[19:44] Shi
    Change direction!
[19:53] G
    The control system broke!
[19:55] G
    We can't steer!
[19:56] G
    At this rate, we won't
    reach the enemy mothership!
[19:58] G
    Katsura-san!
[20:07] Sak
    One after another...
[20:14] En
    Burn.
[20:16] En
    Turn into ash.
[20:39] G
    We're under attack from the right!
[20:40] G
    That's...
[20:43] G
    That fleet is...
[20:51] Kat
    What the—
[20:57] Tak
