[00:02] Haruto
    I'm currently located above Kitaoka
    University, participating in the mission.
[00:06] Haruto
    Thanatos-san, will you
    connect me with Chris?
[00:09] Thanatos
    Ah, Haruto. What took you so long?
[00:12] Thanatos
    Chris is using her transmitter to listen
    in on what's happening with the hostages.
[00:15] Thanatos
    I'll give her your message instead.
[00:17] Haruto
    Copy that.
[00:18] Haruto
    We'll be ready to go in five minutes.
[00:21] Haruto
    Tell her to stay put somewhere safe
    instead of heading in.
[00:25] Thanatos
    I will.
[00:26] Haruto
    Also...
[00:27] Thanatos
    Yes?
[00:28] Haruto
    Tell her that we received approval,
    so there's nothing to worry about.
[00:31] Thanatos
    Okay.
[00:46] Rena
    Was that an earthquake?
[00:47] Maki
    No, that was...
[00:48] Haruto
    Did something happen?
[00:49] Thanatos
    Haruto, I've got some bad news.
[00:51] Thanatos
    Chris went to the scene just now.
[00:53] Haruto
    Murasaki, how are things going?
[01:01] Murasaki
    The mines are set, Haruto.
[01:03] Haruto
    Copy that.
[01:05] Rena
    We're ready any time.
[01:06] Maki
    You bet.
[01:08] Haruto
    All right.
[01:09] Haruto
    Let us begin our Taiga-sama rescue mission.
[01:12] Haruto
    Start the operation!
[01:34] Haruto
    Huh? No one's coming out.
[01:37] Terrorist A
    Who the heck are you?!
[01:39] Tohka
    Stop acting so cool, Haruto.
[01:42] Tohka
    We don't have much time.
[01:43] Haruto
    I know. I'm meeting up with Murasaki,
    so I got it handled here.
[01:48] Haruto
    Please support Rena and Maki,
[01:50] Haruto
    as well as secure an escape
    route for the hostages.
[01:53] Tohka
    Roger.
[01:54] Murasaki
    Thanks for waiting, Haruto.
[02:02] Terrorist A
    Boss! They're moving all at once!
    They even have a sniper on their side!
[02:06] Terrorist
    Set off the gas we left inside,
    and let's get out of here!
[02:12] Maki
    Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!
[02:14] Terrorist C
    Damn it! Stop shooting or else we'll kill
    the hostages being kept in the basement!
[02:25] Rena
    Was that all of them?
[02:27] Maki
    Looks like we've neutralized
    the entrance, huh?
[02:30] Rena
    Okay, let's keep it rolling, Maki!
[02:32] Maki
    Okay, Sis!

[02:48] Natsuki
    It's me. I see.
[02:52] Natsuki
    Yes, thank you.
[02:54] Nogami
    Any news?
[02:55] Natsuki
    The B-2 will arrive at the scene in 30 minutes.
[03:00] Natsuki
    We just have to sit tight a little longer
    for the facility to be blown to smithereens,
[03:05] Natsuki
    and our worries will be taken care of
    along with the virus going away for good.
[03:14] Thanatos
    Stop.
[03:16] Thanatos
    That’s the wrong way.
[03:17] Thanatos
    Head up the stairs to the side.
[03:20] Thanatos
    It'll take you to the tunnel
    next to the front entrance.
[03:23] Hostage A
    O-Okay! It's that stairwell!
[03:28] Hostage A
    Those who are hurt should go
    first. We're almost there!
[03:34] Terrorist F
    Don't any of you move!
[03:39] Rena
    Okay! One down.
[03:41] Maki
    Sis, that's not how you
    use a smoke grenade.
[03:46] Rena
    Huh? But I released the pull
    pin before throwing it.
[03:49] Maki
    It's not a weapon that
    you hit your enemy with.
[03:51] Maki
    Don't you remember learning that
    at Hallow's training center?
[03:54] Rena
    Did we?
[03:56] Rena
    Well, whatever, as long as we
    take care of them, right?
[03:58] Maki
    Oh.
[03:59] Rena
    Huh?
[03:59] Rena
    Oh, he's getting away!
[03:59] Maki
    You clearly didn't take care of him!
[04:01] Maki
    Damn it! How dare you play dead!
[04:01] Rena
    Hey, Maki! Don't go on your own!
[04:08] Haruto
    Okay, one down.
[04:10] Murasaki
    Uh, Haruto... That's not how you use that.
[04:13] Haruto
    Huh? But you said to throw it...
[04:16] Murasaki
    Well, I thought you knew to throw
    it after releasing the pin.
[04:19] Murasaki
    I'm sure even Rena knows that.
[04:24] Haruto
    Rena, my lovely little Rena.
[04:26] Rena
    Yes, it's your little Rena speaking!
[04:30] Haruto
    How are things on your end?
[04:32] Rena
    We've neutralized the entrance and B1,
[04:35] Rena
    but Maki went after a terrorist by herself.
[04:38] Rena
    So I'm trying to catch up.
[04:40] Rena
    Oh, Maki!
[04:41] Maki
    What took you so long, Sis?
[04:43] Maki
    Look, I took care of the dude.
[04:47] Rena
    Oh. Master, everything is okay.
    Maki took care of him too!
[04:52] Haruto
    Did you see anyone that
    looks like their leader?
[04:54] Rena
    Hmm, I don't know.
[04:56] Rena
    Maki, did you fight someone
    that looks like the leader?
[04:59] Maki
    Nah.
[05:00] Maki
    Just a few that had a red bandana
    wrapped around an arm.
[05:04] Haruto
    Those are subs.
[05:06] Rena
    Want us to take care of
    them when we find them?
[05:08] Haruto
    No, we should capture them alive.
[05:11] Haruto
    We want information that may lead us
    to the mastermind behind this plan.
[05:13] Rena
    Okay, got it!
[05:15] Thanatos
    Haruto, Taiga Sengoku's
    signal has stopped moving.
[05:19] Thanatos
    We better hurry.
[05:54] Taiga
    I have to get as far away as I can.
[06:00] Terrorist D
    The heck? It's out of bullets.
[06:03] Terrorist D
    Stupid brat.
[06:08] Terrorist D
    Where are your manners around your elders, huh?
[06:13] Terrorist D
    Sorry, but I'm just following orders.
[06:15] Terrorist D
    I'll make it quick.
[06:25] Haruto
    Hello, villains. I'm sorry for all
    the noise and trouble we have caused.
[06:29] Haruto
    It's your buddies at SORD again.
[06:31] Murasaki
    And I'm his companion,
    a professional ninja.
[06:34] Haruto
    I'm deeply sorry for all the waiting.
[06:37] Terrorist D
    One after another!
    How dare you mess with us!
[06:52] Haruto
    Seriously, are there no good
    adults left in this world?
[06:57] Haruto
    How were you raised in order to
    be so cruel to children?
[07:02] Haruto
    You're an adult yourself, so I'm
    sure you know what I'm talking about.
[07:05] Terrorist E
    You frigging brats!
[07:07] Terrorist E
    Die, die, die!
[07:15] Haruto
    It scares me how humans can
    get accustomed to anything.
[07:17] Murasaki
    Haruto...
[07:18] Murasaki
    I found Taiga-sama.
[07:21] Haruto
    Is she hurt?
[07:22] Murasaki
    Some bruises and scratches,
    but she seems fine.
[07:26] Haruto
    Okay.
[07:28] Haruto
    Taiga-sama, can you hear me?
[07:30] Haruto
    You're safe now.
[07:34] Taiga
    Kujirase! Where's Kujirase?!
[07:48] Chris
    I've seen this place before.
[07:50] Chris
    I see. I must have died.
[08:01] Chris
    I wonder if Taiga-sama is safe?
[08:05] Chris
    I can't recall.
[08:07] Chris
    My memories are starting to fade.
[08:10] Chris
    Taiga-sama, I... I...
[08:16] Chris
    Who am I?
[08:18] Chris
    Who was I trying to...
[08:29] Chris
    Taiga... sama...
[08:32] Chris
    I'm so glad you're okay.
[08:35] Chris
    You're so weak that you'll only drown
    in the water with me.
[08:40] Chris
    So please let go of my hand.
[08:44] Chris
    If you're safe, it means that
[08:49] Chris
    I've finished my duties.
[08:56] Chris
    Do not come to this side, you hear?
[08:58] Taiga
    Kujirase! Don't go! Come back!
[09:01] Taiga
    Kujirase!
[09:07] Chris
    Please don't cry, Taiga-sama.
[09:11] Taiga
    Kujirase...
[09:12] Taiga
    Thank God! The cardiotonic worked!
[09:15] Murasaki
    That's ninja revival medicine.
[09:17] Chris
    Mura...saki?
[09:20] Murasaki
    Does it hurt?
[09:21] Murasaki
    Haruto is securing a path for us,
[09:24] Murasaki
    so we'll get you out as soon
    as he's done clearing the way.
[09:26] Chris
    He is...
[09:28] Murasaki
    Hang on just a little longer.
[09:30] Chris
    Why are you here?
[09:33] Murasaki
    Ninjas appear where you least expect them.
[09:36] Murasaki
    Jokes aside, we only came for our own sake.
[09:41] Murasaki
    We save lives because we want to.
[09:44] Murasaki
    Do we really need to get
    someone's approval for that?
[09:49] Chris
    That's so selfish, though.
[09:52] Murasaki
    "Men are selfish and women are arrogant,"
[09:57] Murasaki
    is what Haruto says, right?
[10:00] Chris
    You're a girl, Murasaki.
[10:03] Murasaki
    Things have changed, and we're all
    here with the principal's permission.
[10:08] Murasaki
    Go ahead and get some sleep.
[10:11] Taiga
    It's okay. There's nothing
    to worry about, Kujirase.
[10:15] Chris
    Okay, Taiga-sama.
[10:24] Maki
    Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!
[10:29] Maki
    Two hundred rounds of ammunition won't be
    enough if I keep shooting like this.
[10:34] Maki
    There's not much time either,
    so I have no choice.
[10:36] Maki
    Hey! I know that there's
    one more of you out there!
[10:39] Maki
    I don't have any time to play
    with you, so just show yourself!
[10:44] Maki
    You heard me, didn't you?!
[10:46] Terrorist H
    Damn it, no answer. Looks like
    the other guys were taken down.
[10:53] Terrorist H
    I don't have any choice
    but to set off the gas!
[11:02] Terrorist H
    They went ahead of us and
    took care of our men?!
[11:09] Rena
    Could you be a professional?
[11:11] Terrorist H
    What are you talking about?
[11:13] Rena
    You see, I grew up in an orphanage called
    Hallow House.
[11:19] Rena
    One day, there was a weird-looking man
    in our backyard, and I nearly killed him.
[11:25] Rena
    Later, I was told that he was Santa Claus,
    and everyone got angry at me.
[11:30] Rena
    But you know, that Santa was actually
    a mass murderer who was on the loose.
[11:37] Rena
    So, I would say my instincts are
    pretty sharp. What do you think?
[11:42] Maki
    Don'tcha move.
[11:44] Rena
    Oh, Maki.
[11:45] Maki
    Oh, Sis. Shoot, he's...
[11:49] Terrorist H
    You scum!
[11:55] Rena
    Hey, hold it!
[11:57] Rena
    Maki!
[12:00] Rena
    That was way too much.
[12:02] Maki
    But he just called both of us scum!
[12:06] Maki
    You're the scum, you cockroach!
[12:09] Rena
    Good grief. Look at how
    many bullets you wasted.
[12:13] Rena
    Even the one they call Overkill in
    Russia wouldn't go this far.
[12:16] Maki
    Oh, that's actually me.
[12:19] Rena
    Huh?!
[12:19] Maki
    But I'm thinking of going by the
    name "Soul Speed" in Japan.
[12:23] Rena
    Oh...
[12:25] Rena
    Well, let's go now that
    we've neutralized them here.
[12:27] Rena
    We don't have much time!
[12:36] Hostage A
    This way! Let's hurry!
[12:39] Terrorist I
    How did they get out?!
[12:40] Terrorist J
    The hostages are getting away!
[12:42] Terrorist J
    They're on the east bridge! Shoot!
[12:49] Gumi
    Why are you aiming at their abdomens?
[12:52] Tohka
    Getting shot in the kidney means
    going through excruciating pain
[12:56] Tohka
    for ten minutes even if
    you stop the bleeding.
[12:58] Tohka
    But only for ten minutes.
[13:01] Tohka
    Families that lost their loved ones
    to terrorism suffer for a lifetime.
[13:05] Tohka
    So, I'm letting them feel what it's
    like to suffer just for ten minutes.
[13:11] Tohka
    I won't waste my bullets for nothing.
[13:13] Gumi
    I see. So there's always a
    meaning to your shots.
[13:20] Haruto
    Ugh, the blade's getting dull.
[13:24] Haruto
    Must be from the fat on that
    chubby guy I just killed.
[13:28] Tohka
    Haruto, can you hear me?
[13:30] Tohka
    We're almost done securing
    the hostages here.
[13:32] Tohka
    How about you?
[13:34] Haruto
    Me too. I just have to deal with one more.
[13:36] Tohka
    What about Chris and Taiga?
[13:38] Haruto
    They're both fine. Murasaki
    is looking after them.
[13:40] Haruto
    Once I'm done here, I'll have
    them transported to Ichiru-san.
[13:45] Tohka
    Okay. Talk to you later.
[13:47] Haruto
    Now then, sorry for the wait.
[13:49] Terrorist G
    P-Please don't!
[13:53] Haruto
    It looks like you have more
    professional equipment than your friends.
[13:58] Haruto
    Are you the boss?
[13:59] Terrorist G
    No! I'm a student, and I
    was just following orders!
[14:05] Haruto
    Hard to believe that a student would go this
    far just because they were given orders.
[14:09] Haruto
    How did you get all the firearms and gas?
[14:16] Haruto
    I guess I can let you go if
    you're not going to talk.
[14:19] Haruto
    Either die here,
[14:21] Haruto
    or make it out alive and have your friends
    come after you for the rest of your life.
[14:27] Haruto
    Which one will it be?
[14:32] Terrorist G
    I-I am...
[14:42] Murasaki
    Quit playing around, Haruto.
[14:44] Murasaki
    If things are on schedule, the bomber
    will be here in ten minutes.
[14:49] Haruto
    I guess it's a good time for us to leave,
    since we got what we came for.
[15:04] Ichiru
    Min-chan, did you find anything?
[15:07] Nogami
    Nothing else besides the fact that
    that religious group is involved.
[15:11] Ichiru
    The mobile unit's aftermath team is gonna
    go into the eastern tower in five minutes.
[15:15] Nogami
    What about the bombing?
[15:17] Ichiru
    They made a quick U-turn after hearing
    the news about Taiga being rescued.
[15:22] Ichiru
    And so did he.
[15:24] Nogami
    I see.
[15:25] Ichiru
    It's impressive how quickly he
    escapes from bad situations.
[15:28] Ichiru
    Anyway, come on back. I'm heading
    out to treat Chris's injuries too.

[16:12] Ichiru
    Sorry for getting you involved
    in our family drama, Aoi.
[16:16] Haruto
    It's fine.
[16:18] Haruto
    You made SORD to go against your
    family in the first place.
[16:23] Ichiru
    Sure, I won't deny that part.
[16:26] Ichiru
    I'm sure the members of the head family,
[16:28] Ichiru
    including Natsuki himself, won't
    be able to do anything for a while
[16:31] Ichiru
    because of what happened this time.
[16:34] Haruto
    In the end,
[16:35] Haruto
    were they the ones behind all this?
[16:38] Ichiru
    I had Min-chan look into it,
    but she couldn't find anything.
[16:43] Haruto
    But I thought we assumed
    "guilty until proven innocent"?
[16:49] Haruto
    Did Chris moving on her own have an...
[16:52] Ichiru
    Let's keep out of each other's business.
[16:55] Haruto
    Is that how grownups do things?
[16:58] Ichiru
    Sure.
[16:59] Ichiru
    They pretend to be innocent but
    harass you behind closed doors.
[17:04] Ichiru
    Grownups are all dirty people. Myself included.
[17:07] Haruto
    Did something happen?
[17:09] Ichiru
    In response to this matter, that guy stepped
    down from being Taiga's legal guardian.
[17:13] Ichiru
    In the end, he was the same
    kind of person as her mother.
[17:18] Ichiru
    Not only that.
[17:19] Ichiru
    What's even worse is that he named
    me Taiga's guardian instead.
[17:25] Haruto
    Oh.
[17:26] Ichiru
    What do you mean, “Oh”?!
    I'm not meant to be a mother!
[17:30] Ichiru
    You agree, don't you?!
[17:32] Ichiru
    Sheesh, why is this happening to me?
[17:35] Haruto
    But I thought doctors were good at
    dealing with other people's lives?
[17:40] Ichiru
    Oh, I'm used to taking away
    the lives of those who claim
[17:43] Ichiru
    to fight for the flag of justice.
[17:49] Ichiru
    Nurturing something is far more difficult
    for me than fighting for our country.
[17:56] Ichiru
    I'm just here to take on the
    responsibility as a member of the Sengoku family.
[18:02] Haruto
    Sheesh, don't litter on school property.
[18:08] Haruto
    Taking on the responsibility of being
    born in that family, huh.
[18:14] Gumi
    How can you cook such a messy dish?!
[18:17] Maki
    I told you that I'm an assassin, not a chef!
[18:21] Tohka
    We agreed to take turns while
    Chris is gone, so suck it up.
[18:25] Murasaki
    Sashimi is the best, since there's
    no need to cook anything.
[18:28] Tohka
    I can't bear eating raw fish.
[18:31] Murasaki
    But you're not a very
    good cook either, Tohka.
[18:33] Gumi
    Really?
[18:35] Tohka
    Liar. I can make fried rice.
[18:38] Gumi
    The fried rice you make is
    the best, Tohka-senpai!
[18:41] Tohka
    I was at my father's PMC before coming
    here and used to be on lunch duty too.
[18:47] Murasaki
    I'm talking about the chunk
    of sugar you call sweets
[18:50] Murasaki
    that's always served
    when it's your turn.
[18:52] Tohka
    What did you say?!
[18:52] Haruto
    Ah, things are a mess here,
    as I expected.
[18:57] Rena
    Oh, welcome back, Master!
[19:00] Haruto
    I've never felt more grateful for
    what Chris has done for us until now.
[19:03] Rena
    Master, how's she doing?
[19:06] Haruto
    She's doing better than I thought,
[19:08] Haruto
    but you won't be able to see
    her for the next two days.
[19:11] Rena
    I see...
[19:12] Haruto
    I'm planning on making time so that
    I can go visit her with Taiga-sama.
[19:16] Taiga
    Hey! Which one of you trashed
    the big bath already?!
[19:20] Rena
    Wow, how cute! Why are
    you dressed like that?!
[19:23] Taiga
    You all need to understand how much work
    you create for Kujirase on a daily basis!
[19:28] Taiga
    Hey, what are you doing! Stop it!
[19:29] Gumi
    Why is she dressed like that?
[19:31] Haruto
    When Taiga-sama volunteered
    to take over Chris's work,
[19:31] Rena
    Aw, you look so cute! I bet you'll
    look good in makeup too!
[19:35] Haruto
    Ichiru-san teased her
    and agreed to let her do it
[19:37] Taiga
    Stop, get away!

    Sniff, sniff...

    Stop smelling me!

[19:47] Chris
    I think they'll discharge
    me earlier than I thought.
[19:50] Taiga
    It's fine. We'll manage without you.
[19:53] Taiga
    I'll take over your work!
[19:56] Chris
    Is that why you're dressed like that?
[19:58] Taiga
    That’s right. I'll cover for you,
    so don't rush things and rest up.
[20:04] Chris
    I'm not. I'm doing
    better than you think.
[20:07] Taiga
    Whoa?! Wh-What are you doing? Let go!
[20:12] Haruto
    It'd be great to have you back,
[20:14] Haruto
    but you won't participate in
    missions for a while. You got that?
[20:18] Chris
    Okay.
[20:20] Chris
    Perhaps you'll become stronger than
    me while I recover, Taiga-sama.
[20:26] Taiga
    Sorry, but that’s not going
    to happen any time soon.
[20:29] Chris
    Huh?
[20:30] Taiga
    I'm a child, after all.
[20:33] Taiga
    Having the same level of knowledge or
    experience as an adult won't make me any stronger.
[20:38] Taiga
    I only thought I knew everything
    by analyzing the people around me.
[20:42] Taiga
    But the truth is, I was clueless.
[20:45] Taiga
    I didn't know how much I was protected
    under the care of the adults that surround me.
[20:50] Taiga
    So, I decided not to rush things.
[20:54] Taiga
    I'll focus on what I can
    do from my own perspective.
[20:58] Taiga
    I'll take my time and enjoy each
    step that I can take right now.
[21:03] Chris
    I think that sounds great.
[21:05] Chris
    Take one step at a time at your own pace.
[21:07] Chris
    You're allowed to stop when
    you trip over something.
[21:11] Chris
    There's something beautiful that you
    won't notice unless you take time and look around.
[21:17] Taiga
    I guess.
[21:19] Taiga
    But I'm going to stay enrolled in Class A.
[21:26] Chris
    That day...
[21:27] Chris
    I wonder if my mother, who died for me,
    perhaps had no regrets?
[21:32] Chris
    The strong determination to protect someone...
[21:37] Chris
    The love that you give grows bigger and
    gets passed on to the next person.
[21:42] Chris
    Perhaps to break out of
    a mother's love means
[21:46] Chris
    that you've become the person
    who provides love to others.
[21:51] Chris
    When I become capable of doing so,
[21:53] Chris
    then maybe the mother in my
    dreams will smile at me.
[21:58] Chris
    My life that was given to me by my mother...
[22:01] Chris
    From now on, it's up to me to create the
    reason why I survived that day.
[23:40] Chris
    I'm Chris.
[23:41] Haruto
    I'm Haruto Aoi.
[23:42] Haruto
    Let's do a word chain game as training.
[23:44] Chris
    That's so sudden.
[23:45] Haruto
    Throw this grenade like a ball to
    the next person after your answer.
[23:49] Haruto
    If it explodes, you lose!
[23:50] Chris
    Huh?! It's a dummy, right?
[23:52] Haruto
    Of course. Shiritori (word chain)! Go!
[23:53] Chris
    Um, rika (science) Here!
[23:55] Haruto
    Kami no ke (hair)!
[23:56] Chris
    K-Kendama (a toy)!
[23:57] Haruto
    Massugu na hitomi (unclouded eyes)!
[23:58] Chris
    H-Hitomi (eyes)? M-Millionaire!
[24:00] Haruto
    Afureru chisei (overflowing intelligence)!
[24:01] Chris
    Ido (a well)!
[24:02] Haruto
    Doko made mo (super) kind, but can be
    strict at times, but kind in the end!
[24:05] Chris
    Super kind... Your answers seem strange.
[24:09] Haruto
    Oh, probably because I'm
    saying what I like about you.
[24:13] Chris
    Huh?! Yasashii (kind) ... I...
[24:16] Haruto
    Ka-boom!
[24:17] Haruto
    You lose!
[24:18] Chris
    I-Ijiwaru... (How mean...)
[24:21] Chris

[24:26] Chris
    I lost, but I don't mind.
[24:29] Haruto
    Shall we do another round?
[24:31] Chris
    Yes, please!
