[00:08] Unika
    Starting the infiltration.
[02:06] Elphelt
    That bomb?!
[02:07] Ramlethal
    An unexploded bomb.
[02:08] Elphelt
    Eek!
[02:09] Ramlethal
    But I've sealed it, so it's fine now.
[02:12] Narrator
    Ramlethal Valentine. Acting under
    the orders of the United King,
[02:16] Narrator
    she and Elphelt are tasked
    with guarding the sealed barrier.
[02:22] Ramlethal
    This is the spell formula to lift the barrier.
[02:25] Elphelt
    Could that be a clue?
[02:29] Elphelt
    Maybe we could catch the mastermind ourselves!
[02:32] Ramlethal
    Go on... I can handle things here alone.
[02:35] Elphelt
    Then I, Elphelt Valentine...
[02:37] Elphelt
    am off to catch the big bad villain!
[03:04] Jack-O’
    Stop right there.
[03:06] Jack-O’
    I recommend you surrender.
    I'm far stronger than a human.
[03:16] Jack-O’
    Told you so.
[03:28] Elphelt
    Hello, Jack-O'?
[03:30] Elphelt
    There's something I wanted to ask...
    Have you heard anything about us lately?
[03:34] Elphelt
    Yeah... We were guarding the seal,
    but someone attacked the site just now.
[03:41] Narrator
    Elphelt Valentine.
[03:42] Narrator
    A creation of the higher being known
    as the Universal Will...
[03:46] Narrator
    one of the Valentine series...
[03:48] Narrator
    Recently started a band.
[03:51] Jack-O’
    You're talking about the tech used to
    break the Thunderseal's barrier...
[03:54] Jack-O’
    In that case, we should be
    able to track it down quickly.
[03:56] Elphelt
    That's what I thought, but no luck.
    I even asked around, and nothing.
[04:00] Elphelt
    No researchers have gone missing
    or anything either.
[04:03] Elphelt
    It's like they just dropped
    out of the sky all of a sudden...
[04:06] Jack-O’
    An unknown genius, huh?
[04:08] Jack-O’
    Do you have any leads?
[04:10] Elphelt
    Just one anonymous tip
    we received from someone.
[04:14] Jack-O’
    Sounds like a trap.
[04:15] Elphelt
    Right?
[04:17] Elphelt
    But when someone plays you like this,
    you can't help but get curious.
[04:20] Elphelt
    So I...
[04:22] Elphelt
    I'm going to dive in.
[04:24] Elphelt
    You need to look someone in the eye
    and speak from the heart...
[04:27] Elphelt
    or your feelings won't get through, right?
[04:30] Elphelt
    How's everything on your end?
[04:31] Jack-O’
    Same as you...
    I've been digging into this case too.
[04:34] Jack-O’
    Just tracked down the ones stirring up
    the anti-Gear demonstrations.
[04:39] Jack-O’
    They're using weapons from
    the military's special forces.
[04:41] Elphelt
    Wait, if it's the military, does that
    mean the president's behind this?
[04:45] Jack-O’
    I doubt it...
[04:47] Jack-O’
    We're starting to get stretched thin here...
[05:00] Sin
    That weird feeling...
[05:08] Sin
    What was that?
[05:11] Sin
    Huh?
[05:12] Sin
    What's that?
[05:13] Sol
    Science.
[05:15] Narrator
    Sol noticed a unique electromagnetic wave
    emitted whenever Unika uses magic
[05:20] Narrator
    and built a device to detect it.
[05:23] Narrator
    In this era where science has declined,
[05:25] Narrator
    detection through electromagnetic
    waves is a blind spot.
[05:28] Sol
    It's old tech...
[05:30] Sol
    Back in the day, it went out of control...
    and was abandoned.
[05:39] Agent
    Mr. Sol Badguy, Mr. Sin Kiske,
[05:42] Agent
    By order of the president,
    we've come to escort you.
[05:45] Agent
    Please come with us.
[05:50] Sol
    We're in the middle of something!
[05:52] Agent
    P-Please wait!
[05:54] Agent
    Tch!
[06:02] Sol
    Hang on tight.
[06:13] Command
    Target on the move.
    Charlie, circle around and block the route!
[07:02] Nervil
    Hehehe...
[07:04] Nervil
    Having a bit of trouble, are we?
[07:13] Sin
    You really saved our butts, old man.
    My name is Sin Kiske!
[07:24] Sol
    Senator Nerville, anti-Gear hardliner.
[07:30] Sol
    What's this about?
[07:31] Nervil
    I'm a politician. My job is to meet and talk.
[07:37] Sin
    Hey... You're against Gears, right?
[07:40] Sin
    So... what does that feel like?
[07:42] Nervil
    The very existence of Gears
    is too dangerous for humanity.
[07:46] Sin
    But you don't know that for sure.
[07:48] Nervil
    You're from a generation
    that doesn't remember the Crusades.
[07:50] Nervil
    Still... you're right. That's exactly
    why we're having this conversation.
[07:56] Nervil
    If I'm to judge whether Sin Kiske,
    a Gear, is dangerous...
[08:00] Nervil
    then talking to you face-to-face is
    the only place to start, don't you think?
[08:03] Sin
    Face-to-face, huh... Yeah, that makes sense.
[08:06] Sol
    This is fine. Let us off.
[08:16] Nervil
    A handshake. It's a gesture of respect.
[08:19] Nervil
    I will likely become your enemy...
[08:23] Nervil
    But not out of hatred.
[08:26] Nervil
    I want you to remember that.
[08:30] Sin
    Got it!
[08:42] Sin
    Huh... So there are some decent folks
    even among the anti-Gear crowd.
[08:45] Sol
    Don't take him seriously.
[08:47] Sin
    Man, you're so cynical, Old Man.
[08:53] Elphelt
    Thanks for worrying about me, Ram.
[08:55] Elphelt
    But you know what?
[08:56] Elphelt
    A band travels the world in search
    of fans they haven't met yet!
[09:05] Elphelt
    Hello? Is anyone here?
[09:12] Elphelt
    Used up and thrown out... Horrible.
[09:19] Elphelt
    No traps detected in the area...
[09:28] Elphelt
    Which means...
[09:40] Sin
    This is where she's hiding?
[09:44] Sol
    No sane person would come out here.
    Perfect place to lay low.
[09:51] Man A
    What the hell are you doing here?
[09:54] Sin
    We're looking for someone. A girl named Unika.
[09:57] Sin
    She's got wings like this.
[10:00] Man A
    You guys cops or something?
[10:02] Sol
    Just bounty hunters.
[10:07] Man B
    You're an eyesore.
[10:09] Man A
    Do what you came to do, and get lost.
[10:14] Sin
    Old Man.
[10:21] Elderly Man
    Sir Sol Badguy of the
    Sacred Order of Holy Knights...
[10:26] Elderly Man
    We were able to live to see
    the end of the Crusades thanks to you.
[10:32] Elderly Man
    But... What brings you to a place like this?
[10:35] Sin
    Ah-uh, well...
[10:36] Little Girl
    I saw her! An angel with wings.
[10:40] Little Girl
    She flew toward that building over there!
[10:43] Little Girl
    Are you going to fight the angel?
[10:47] Sin
    Nah... We're just gonna talk.
[10:49] Sin
    I believe Gears and humans can get along.
[10:52] Elderly Man
    Those born after the Crusades
    will never understand that suffering.
[10:58] Elderly Man
    And they don't need to.
[11:04] Sin
    You really think another
    Crusade's gonna happen?
[11:07] Sol
    If you don't stay sharp, who will?
[11:10] Sin
    Huh?! Me?
[11:11] Sol
    You're a Command-Type Gear, aren't you?
[11:14] Sol
    Justice, the Command-Type Gear who led
    the Gear rebellion and started the Crusades.
[11:20] Sol
    You and Dizzy carry that bloodline.
[11:24] Sin
    Yeah, I know...
[11:25] Sin
    So, wait... If I told that
    Gear to move, they would?
[11:29] Sol
    Don't you ever try it.
[11:31] Sin
    I won't!
[11:33] Sin
    But like... If another Crusade was about to
    start, I could just tell them to stop, right?
[11:39] Sin
    Then why not just tell Unika
    and that politician guy?!
[11:44] Jack-O’
    Frederick, can you hear me?
[11:46] Jack-O’
    I figured out Unika's next target.
[11:48] Jack-O’
    It's Illyria.
[11:51] Jack-O’
    This is footage we just recovered.
[11:58] Sin
    Whoa, this is...
[12:00] Sol
    A magic weapon from the Crusades.
[12:02] Sol
    The access key?
[12:04] Jack-O’
    Looks like a demonstration.
[12:05] Jack-O’
    Attacking the End-of-War Commemoration Festival
    was probably all part of the plan.
[12:09] Jack-O’
    Now she's threatening
    to drop it on Illyria next.
[12:12] Sol
    What are their demands?
[12:14] Jack-O’
    There are demands, but they're all absurd.
[12:16] Jack-O’
    They probably intended
    to launch it from the start.
[12:18] Jack-O’
    Also... we lost contact with Elphelt
    after she headed out toward that location.
[12:22] Sin
    El's in danger?!
[12:23] Jack-O’
    You two be careful too.
[12:25] Sol
    Got it.
[12:27] Sin
    You think El's okay?
[12:29] Sol
    She's a Valentine too.
    She's tougher than she looks.
[12:34] Sin
    Still... Unika's really planning
    to burn down Illyria?
[12:38] Sin
    She can't be serious, right?
[12:41] Leo
    On behalf of the United Kingdom of Illyria,
[12:43] Leo
    we thank the United States for assisting.
[12:46] Leo
    That said, I was told the access key to the
    magic weapon was successfully protected...
[12:51] Vernon
    It looks like it was copied
    in the brief moment it was taken.
[12:54] Leo
    A terrifying bit of tech...
[12:56] Vernon
    According to intel from Jack-O',
[13:00] Vernon
    a special forces unit
    reporting to the president
[13:02] Vernon
    was involved with the anti-Gear movement.
[13:04] Leo
    Someone on the inside is
    feeding them information.
[13:07] Vernon
    We've got a skilled bounty hunter
    tracking Unika now.
[13:10] Leo
    Hm? Not Sol?
[13:12] Vernon
    We tried to retrieve him,
    but someone interfered.
[13:15] Leo
    They've outplayed us at every turn.
[13:17] Leo
    It's about time we took the flight back.
    For the sake of the people.
[13:21] Vernon
    That's exactly what we intend to do.
[13:25] Announcer A
    A nationwide evacuation order
    has just been issued across Illyria.
[13:28] Announcer A
    All citizens, please evacuate
    immediately. I repeat...
[13:31] Announcer A
    All citizens, please evacuate immediately.
[13:37] Sol
    That's the place.
[13:38] Sol
    Go. I'll cover you.
[13:40] Sin
    Got it.
[13:55] Unika
    Father...
[14:06] Sin
    Unika!
[14:14] Sin
    You've done enough!
[14:15] Unika
    What are you talking about?
[14:17] Sin
    You don't have to kill so many people...
[14:19] Sin
    You don't have to do something so sad!
[14:21] Unika
    No matter how many sacrifices it takes...
[14:24] Unika
    It's nothing compared
    to the extinction of humanity.
[14:28] Unika
    Let tragedy be the lesson!
[14:30] Sin
    By humanity being wiped out...
[14:32] Sin
    you mean war between Gears
    and humans, right?
[14:35] Sin
    Then don't worry... I'll stop the Crusade!
[14:39] Sin
    Because I'm a Gear!
[14:43] Unika
    A Gear? You?
[14:45] Sin
    Yeah, my old man told me...
[14:47] Sin
    I'm some kinda super Gear or whatever... So.
[14:56] Sin
    Stop! I didn't come here to fight!
[14:58] Unika
    Then perish where you stand!
[15:16] Bridget
    That's... Sin's...
[16:05] (Flashback) Baiken
    Keep your eyes open...
[16:07] (Flashback) Baiken
    Or you'll miss the chance
    to save lives that can be saved.
[16:12] Sin
    Stop, Unika!
[16:14] Unika
    Listen to me!
[16:15] Unika
    If you keep defending the Gears,
    another Crusade will happen!
[16:22] Unika
    Damn you!
[16:26] Sin
    I said stop!
[16:46] Unika
    You still don't get it, do you!?
[16:48] Unika
    In the future...
    humanity won't be the victors!
[16:50] Sin
    Th... That's not true...
[16:55] Sin
    The Crusade... I'll...
[17:01] Sin
    I'll stop it!
[17:05] Unika
    What
[17:09] Unika
    can you possibly do?!
[17:21] Sin
    Just stop already... okay?
[17:26] Unika
    Shut up!
[17:35] Unika
    Go away!
[17:40] Sin
    I told you! I didn't come here to fight!
[17:49] Sin
    You want to stop the Crusade, don't you?
[17:56] Sin
    But this...
[17:59] Sin
    This isn't how you do it!
[18:03] Unika
    There's no other way...
[18:05] Unika
    There isn't!
[18:17] Sin
    If we all worked together...
[18:19] Sin
    We might actually have a shot!
[18:23] Sin
    You don't have to do this alone!
[18:35] Unika
    Not again!
[18:36] (Flashback) Young Unika
    Mom... Dad...
[18:40] (Flashback) Nervil
    Your life is worth more than theirs.
[18:44] (Flashback) Unika
    Father...
[18:46] (Flashback) Nervil
    Unika... You are my precious daughter.
[18:51] Unika
    I... I...
[18:54] Sin
    Unika!
[19:09] Unika
    I... I'm not alone!
[19:14] Sol
    Tch. You idiot...
[19:23] Sol
    That's a reinforced plastic round.
[19:26] Sol
    Your electromagnetic barrier can't block that.
[19:32] Sin
    Unika...
[20:24] Sin
    U... Uni... ka...
[20:27] Resident A
    I saw it! He controlled a Gear!
[20:30] Resident B
    Yeah, I saw it too!
[20:31] Resident C
    A m-monster!
[20:33] Commander
    Clear the way!
[20:35] Residents
    What're you doing?!
[20:36] Commander
    Stay out of the way, you squatters.
[20:39] Resident
    The hell did you just say?!
[20:44] Baiken
    Seriously?
[20:47] Baiken
    You all need to cool your heads!
[20:50] Baiken
    This ain't your fight to begin with.
[20:53] Baiken
    I was called in to back them up,
    but the president's army...
[20:57] Baiken
    What, are they reckless enough to start
    spraying bullets everywhere they go?!
[21:08] Baiken
    What the hell are you doing here, showoff?
[21:11] Johnny
    I've got a soft spot for married women.
[21:26] Baiken
    Just like Vernon said...
[21:28] Baiken
    If this had been revealed,
    we would've been in serious trouble.
[21:32] Johnny
    Yeah, we made it in time.
[21:34] Johnny
    She's hurt, but she's alive.
[21:37] Jack-O’
    You really saved us. I owe you one.
[21:41] Johnny
    Well then, miss...
    Care to join me for a cup of tea?
[23:34] Bridget
    You're... the one from the
    End-of-War Commemoration Festival, right?
