**[02:01] ---**
They're gonna get behind us, Gripen!
**[02:03] ---**
I know!
**[02:09] ---**
Kei, are you okay?
**[02:11] ---**
Don't worry about me. Concentrate!
**[02:13] ---**
But...
**[02:14] ---**
I'm begging you...
**[02:15] ---**
Don't let me slow you down!
**[02:19] ---**
All right.
**[02:23] ---**
You're kidding me.
**[02:33] ---**
*I won!*
**[02:34] ---**
*Eagle wins again!*
**[02:38] ---**
My winning streak continues!
**[02:41] ---**
We lost, huh?
**[02:44] ---**
Barbie 01, RTB.
**[02:52] ---**
Hey, hey, hey!
**[02:53] ---**
I'm really strong, right?
**[02:55] ---**
Incredible, right?
**[02:56] ---**
Yeah, you totally beat us.
**[03:02] ---**
Hey, you think I'm amazing too, right?
**[03:06] ---**
Not really.
**[03:10] ---**
That last battle was just luck, then!
**[03:15] ---**
A lightweight fighter like you
can't possibly do better than me!
**[03:20] ---**
But you couldn't protect
the town on your own.
**[03:25] ---**
Hey!
**[03:27] ---**
You just lost to me!
**[03:29] ---**
Knock it off, you two!
**[03:40] ---**
It's frustrating.
**[03:42] ---**
When she says what you and I
worked hard to do was just luck...
**[03:51] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[03:54] ---**
Next time, let's show her who's better!
***SIGN*** No Smoking
**[03:59] ---**
An Anima is capable of climbs,
turns, and descents exceeding 10Gs.
**[04:05] ---**
But...
**[04:07] ---**
Now Gripen is carrying an extremely
fragile piece of luggage. You.
**[04:13] ---**
The usual limit given for humans is 9Gs.
**[04:22] ---**
Think of it like trying to
do acrobatics while holding
**[04:26] ---**
a spoon with a raw egg on it.
**[04:28] ---**
It's gonna limit what you
can do, no matter what.
**[04:32] ---**
There's no way you can beat
a solo Daughter like Eagle.
**[04:35] ---**
So you're just going to keep
telling Gripen to lose?
**[04:39] ---**
It's really getting to her!
**[04:41] ---**
There's no telling what will happen if she
goes out into a real fight like this.
**[04:47] ---**
Well, the real answer is to train your body.
**[04:52] ---**
Strengthen your muscles,
increase your lung capacity,
**[04:55] ---**
and train in anti-G breathing patterns.
**[04:59] ---**
I'm lifting weights and jogging daily.
**[05:05] ---**
But still, anything past
10Gs is gonna be rough.
**[05:09] ---**
And negative Gs are impossible to deal with,
no matter how much you train.
**[05:13] ---**
So what do we do?
**[05:21] ---**
A way for a human and
an Anima to fight, huh?
**[05:25] ---**
I understand the situation.
I'll see what I can do.
**[05:29] ---**
But I'm a little busy now.
**[05:32] ---**
To be honest, I don't have
time to take care of Gripen.
**[05:36] ---**
I'll have to ask you to keep
her in good mental shape.
**[05:39] ---**
You're busy?
**[05:41] ---**
You do look a little tired.
**[05:44] ---**
I'm dealing with a lot of problems.
**[05:47] ---**
Oh... are you free tomorrow?
**[05:51] ---**
I have something to talk to you about.
**[05:53] ---**
I think I'm oka—
**[05:59] ---**
What is it?
**[06:04] ---**
I'll be going.
**[06:12] ---**
Oh, it's Kei!
**[06:14] ---**
What are you guys doing?
**[06:16] ---**
Physical testing.
**[06:17] ---**
We get regular exams once a month.
**[06:20] ---**
But all she does is mess around.
**[06:23] ---**
'Cause it's boring!
**[06:26] ---**
You're so slow no matter what you do!
**[06:29] ---**
I was better at the side step test!
**[06:37] ---**
That boring test?
**[06:39] ---**
You took it seriously?
**[06:41] ---**
Calm down...

**[06:56] ---**
Hey!
***SIGN*** Please be quiet
inside the facility
**[07:08] ---**
My back hurts.
**[07:11] ---**
And my thighs and my arms...
**[07:13] ---**
You hate losing, don't you?
**[07:17] ---**
I lose in the sky,
**[07:18] ---**
and on land, too.
**[07:21] ---**
And then she calls me slow!
**[07:24] ---**
I can't take that.
**[07:26] ---**
I'm so mad, I could scream.
**[07:28] ---**
It's that bad?
**[07:30] ---**
Ow...
**[07:32] ---**
I'll do my best, so you hang in there, too.
**[07:38] ---**
Hey, Gripen...
**[07:40] ---**
I'm glad I got to fly with you again.
**[07:45] ---**
Yeah.
***SIGN*** JSDF Women's Dorm
**[07:50] ---**
I-I'll be going...
**[07:52] ---**
Why? You've come this far.
**[07:55] ---**
You can come in.
**[07:56] ---**
But this is...
**[07:58] ---**
I'll. Show. You. A. Good. Time.
**[08:01] ---**
*Where did she learn that?*
**[08:03] ---**
Come in...
**[08:05] ---**
* How much of this situation*
* does she understand?*
**[08:08] ---**
* Maybe I need to have them sit*
* down and give her a talking to.*
**[08:12] ---**
* Tell her how a girl her age*
* is supposed to behave,*
**[08:15] ---**
* and what things she needs*
* to watch out for.*
**[08:18] ---**
* I was planning on going home after I*
* walked her to her door, but this...*
**[08:22] ---**
*And it's a weekday afternoon!*
**[08:25] ---**
* Everybody's at their stations.*
* The whole place is empty!*
**[08:28] ---**
* In other words, it's just me,*
* alone in her room,*
**[08:31] ---**
*with the rooms on either side empty!*
**[08:33] ---**
*It smells like a crime.*
**[08:36] ---**
No, no! I'm not going to do anything wrong!
**[08:39] ---**
But this is awkward!
**[08:41] ---**
There are lots of men who'd
take advantage of this!
**[08:48] ---**
I-I came inside.
**[08:51] ---**
E-Excuse me.
**[08:54] ---**
It's really clean.
**[08:57] ---**
If I put up anything too weird,
they get mad.
**[09:00] ---**
Really?
**[09:01] ---**
My life here is a part of my tuning.
**[09:04] ---**
That camera there watches me constantly.
**[09:07] ---**
It's hard to relax around that.
**[09:09] ---**
Not really. I'm used to it.
**[09:13] ---**
What are you doing?
**[09:14] ---**
Changing.
**[09:15] ---**
The sweat feels yucky.
**[09:17] ---**
Go to the changing room or the shower room!
**[09:19] ---**
I'm right here!
**[09:20] ---**
Why?
**[09:21] ---**
Why can't I change in front of you?
**[09:24] ---**
I-It's because...
**[09:26] ---**
B-Because you can't, okay?
**[09:30] ---**
Fine.
**[09:52] ---**
Is that...
**[09:56] ---**
I used to have one, too.

* Can you buy stuff for dinner at*
* the supermarket near the station?*
**[10:34] ---**
*Komatsuna spinach and ground beef.*
**[10:38] ---**
Roger.
**[10:51] ---**
Don't ignore me.
**[10:55] ---**
Let me go!
**[10:58] ---**
What's going on today?
**[11:01] ---**
I said I'll show you around!
**[11:10] ---**
Hey!
**[11:12] ---**
If you're here, you should've said something.
**[11:14] ---**
I've been looking for you.
**[11:15] ---**
Sorry.
**[11:17] ---**
Aw, she's with somebody already?
**[11:22] ---**
Sorry for interrupting.
**[11:24] ---**
But you seemed like you were in trouble.
**[11:27] ---**
No, you saved me.
**[11:29] ---**
I don't know this area and
didn't know what to do.
**[11:35] ---**
Okay, I'll be going.
**[11:37] ---**
I'm sorry, but how do I
get to Komatsu Airport?
**[11:41] ---**
Komatsu Airport?
**[11:42] ---**
Yes, I'm trying to get to the JSDF base.
**[11:46] ---**
The base?
**[11:48] ---**
The fastest way is probably to take the bus
at Stop #5 and then get off at Ukiyanagi.
**[11:53] ---**
But it's a long way, so you
might want to take a taxi.
**[11:57] ---**
No, I'd rather use my own
legs as much as possible.
**[12:01] ---**
I've been looking forward to coming
to this town for a long time.
**[12:05] ---**
I see.
**[12:07] ---**
Anyway, be careful.
**[12:08] ---**
Stay away from weirdos like that.
**[12:10] ---**
All right. Thank you.
**[12:18] ---**
What the hell's going on?
**[12:21] ---**
How obnoxious.
**[12:23] ---**
Maybe I should've dismantled
his body as well.
**[12:32] ---**
Narutani Kei-san, is it?
**[12:38] ---**
He wants you to come to Hangar 3 today.
**[12:41] ---**
Huh? Hangar 3?
**[12:50] ---**
Hey, there you are.
**[12:52] ---**
So this is the Phantom?
**[12:53] ---**
Surprised you knew that.
**[12:55] ---**
The Phantom II, specifically.
**[12:57] ---**
Modified for tactical recon.
**[13:01] ---**
You can see that extra
tank on its belly, right?
**[13:05] ---**
That's a recon pod.
**[13:07] ---**
This is a Daughter, right?
**[13:09] ---**
It was deployed to Misawa Base in Aomori,
**[13:12] ---**
but now we've decided to bring it here.
**[13:14] ---**
It just got here last night.
**[13:17] ---**
Then the Anima...
**[13:31] ---**
Oh.
**[13:32] ---**
Huh? You're...
**[13:35] ---**
Good afternoon.
**[13:37] ---**
Thank you for your help yesterday.
**[13:39] ---**
Oh, you know him?
**[13:40] ---**
Yes. He gave me some directions yesterday.
**[13:46] ---**
Yes...
**[13:48] ---**
I apologize for not introducing myself.
**[13:50] ---**
I am RF-4EJ-ANM Phantom II.
**[13:55] ---**
Please call me "Phantom."
**[13:57] ---**
Okay...
**[13:59] ---**
But your hair...
**[14:01] ---**
This?
**[14:02] ---**
I'd dyed it yesterday.
**[14:04] ---**
I don't really like standing
out when I'm outside.
**[14:07] ---**
Or did you prefer it black?
**[14:11] ---**
No...
**[14:12] ---**
Um, I'm...
**[14:14] ---**
Narutani Kei-san, right?
**[14:18] ---**
I know you well.
**[14:20] ---**
Gripen's partner.
**[14:22] ---**
I've heard about you.
**[14:24] ---**
Kei...
**[14:25] ---**
Oh, it's Kei!
**[14:27] ---**
Huh? An Anima?
**[14:29] ---**
You're all here.
**[14:31] ---**
The director's waiting.
**[14:33] ---**
Take them to the TRDI building.
**[14:40] ---**
So this is sudden,
but I've got an announcement.
**[14:43] ---**
The Anima at Komatsu Base will now
**[14:46] ---**
function as an independent unit.
**[14:49] ---**
Your new name is the Independent Mixed
Test Unit, or IMTU for short.
**[14:55] ---**
IMTU...
**[14:56] ---**
In other words, from now on, we're a team.
**[15:00] ---**
The Daughters will be brought
together in one place
**[15:03] ---**
to increase Japan's ability
to deal with the Xi.
**[15:06] ---**
It's more efficient from a maintenance
**[15:09] ---**
and management perspective
to have us all in one place.
**[15:12] ---**
But what brought this on?
**[15:14] ---**
The attack on Komatsu.
**[15:17] ---**
It seems to have woken up the higher-ups.
**[15:20] ---**
A plan that had been shelved for
a while was finally approved.
**[15:26] ---**
Who are you?
**[15:28] ---**
I was just listening to Daddy!
**[15:32] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[15:34] ---**
I am RF-4EJ-ANM Phantom—
**[15:38] ---**
An F-4?
**[15:39] ---**
I didn't know any of
those were still flying!
**[15:41] ---**
I thought they were all scrapped by now.
**[15:45] ---**
You've got a big mouth for a child whose
airframe is only twenty or so years old.
**[15:51] ---**
Both of you are old lad—
**[15:52] ---**
Hey! Don't make it any worse!
**[15:56] ---**
Was your embarrassing failure
during the defense of Komatsu
**[15:59] ---**
because you couldn't properly
assess your enemies' capabilities?
**[16:02] ---**
Are you saying you're stronger than me?
**[16:06] ---**
Who knows?
**[16:07] ---**
But I do think that if I'd been up there,
**[16:10] ---**
I could've limited the damage
our allies suffered.
**[16:15] ---**
Then let's fight and see who's stronger!
**[16:18] ---**
I'll show you what I can do!
**[16:20] ---**
Hey, I don't think...
**[16:21] ---**
Very well.
**[16:22] ---**
Yashirodoori-san!
**[16:23] ---**
Let's do some combat training
to test out the Phantom.
**[16:29] ---**
Gripen, you go up there, too.
**[16:31] ---**
Me, too?
**[16:32] ---**
I'll evaluate all three of you.
**[16:34] ---**
We start in an hour.
**[16:36] ---**
Everybody, get ready!
**[16:38] ---**
W-Wait...
**[16:39] ---**
Okay! I'll smash you all up!
**[16:41] ---**
I'm looking forward to it.
**[16:48] ---**
You three don't get along at all.
**[16:51] ---**
Couldn't you be a little more cooperative?
**[16:54] ---**
Cooperative?
**[16:56] ---**
You're all Anima. Can't you get along?
**[16:59] ---**
You all want to defeat the Xi.
**[17:02] ---**
I don't think that set of values
is something we were given.
**[17:06] ---**
The concept you refer to
**[17:08] ---**
wasn't in our initial conditioning
or personality adjustment programs.
**[17:14] ---**
I am who I am. She is who she is.
**[17:17] ---**
We do our mission and save humanity.
**[17:20] ---**
That is all.
**[17:23] ---**
*Barbie 03, Runway 24.*
**[17:25] ---**
*Cleared for takeoff when ready.*
**[17:28] ---**

**[17:42] ---**
*Barbie 01, cleared for takeoff.*
**[17:45] ---**

**[17:46] ---**
I'm fine. Let's go.
**[17:54] ---**
* All Barbie units,*
* begin the training operation.*
**[17:58] ---**
*Time at 18.*
**[17:59] ---**
Feel free to come at me two on one.
**[18:02] ---**
I can get back to my
maintenance faster that way.
**[18:06] ---**
You really do make me mad, you old hag!
**[18:08] ---**
Fine! I'll shoot you down first!
**[18:14] ---**
What do we do?
**[18:16] ---**
Join Eagle.
**[18:19] ---**
I'm worried about how
unconcerned Phantom seems.
**[18:22] ---**
She's going out of her way to provoke us.
**[18:24] ---**
She's got some trick up her sleeve.
**[18:25] ---**
Roger.
**[18:27] ---**
*Begin mission.*
**[18:29] ---**
Engage.
**[18:30] ---**
I'm coming, too.
**[18:37] ---**
Fox 2!
**[18:43] ---**
Too easy!
**[18:46] ---**
Now, it's over!
**[18:50] ---**
*Barbie 02, lost!*
**[18:53] ---**
Gripen, break!
**[18:56] ---**
She's behind us!
**[19:02] ---**
Fox 2.
**[19:21] ---**
She disappeared again!
**[19:24] ---**
No way.
**[19:28] ---**
*It's over. Return to base.*
**[19:31] ---**
What the hell is going on?
**[19:36] ---**
Gripen, what's wrong?
**[19:39] ---**
Something... seems weird.
**[19:44] ---**
Don't tell me that was
your best shot, was it?
**[19:48] ---**
All that talk, and you lost so easily
to an old fighter like me.
**[19:55] ---**
There must be some reason, right?
**[19:58] ---**
Some reason that you couldn't
use your full strength,
**[20:00] ---**
and were instead shot down so pathetically.
**[20:03] ---**
Shut up! You jerk!
**[20:07] ---**
Jerk! Jerk!
**[20:08] ---**
I hate you! I hate your guts!
**[20:13] ---**
You didn't need to say it like that.
**[20:16] ---**
The worst people in the world are
the weak who think they're strong.
**[20:22] ---**
"I'm strong. No one can beat me."
**[20:26] ---**
There's nothing more annoying than
someone who's so convinced of that fact
**[20:31] ---**
that they stop thinking
and go out of control.
**[20:34] ---**
Are you talking about Eagle?
**[20:36] ---**
Who knows?
**[20:38] ---**
Why did you cheat?
**[20:40] ---**
Cheat?
**[20:41] ---**
I think it's wrong to cheat in
what should be a fair fight.
**[20:45] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[20:48] ---**
Hey, Gripen...
**[20:50] ---**
You inserted incorrect information
into the data link.
**[20:54] ---**
She cracked into the channel that
Anima use to share information
**[20:58] ---**
about their positions and sensor data,
then fed us false information.
**[21:03] ---**
Then the reason she kept disappearing
and reappearing in that last fight...
**[21:09] ---**
Those were fake Phantoms.
**[21:11] ---**
She was feeding us false
electronic information.
**[21:13] ---**
That's cheating.
**[21:16] ---**
What of it?
**[21:19] ---**
In a real fight, you do whatever
it takes to win, right?
**[21:24] ---**
In a real fight, allies don't share
false information with each other!
**[21:33] ---**
Who is really worse to
have as an ally, I wonder?
**[21:41] ---**
I'll be going.
**[21:44] ---**
I'm keeping the mechanics waiting.
