[01:39] ---
    That was the day the world was destroyed.
[01:43] ---
    The sky was shrouded in
    the fluid of despair,

[01:46] ---
    the earth filled with
    cries of helplessness.

[01:50] ---
    But even at such times,
[01:52] ---
    people searched for small dreams to show
[01:55] ---
    they are still worthy of being human.
[01:59] ---
    At the bottom of the universe,
    where the fighting never ends,

[02:03] ---
    the planet "Endless Illusion."
[02:06] ---
    "End of a Dream"
[02:12] ---
    Eldora Block Shoot!
[02:20] ---
    You pests are really starting to bug me!
[02:27] ---
    You think such measly attacks
    have any affect on my Dahlia?
[02:32] ---
    In that case, how about this?
[02:37] ---
    I've never seen such savageness.
[02:39] ---
    Miss Fasalina, the Birthday
    System is set to go.
[02:42] ---
    Our Comrade wishes to have an
    Original 7 member in attendance.
[02:45] ---
    Saudade hasn't come back yet?
[02:49] ---
    We're out of communication right now,
[02:51] ---
    although the re-entry shield was deployed.
[02:55] ---
    All right. I'll leave it to the 101's
    to keep them pinned down here.
[03:03] ---
    Joshua, where is she?
[03:06] ---
    Sorry, I'm having a hard
    time picking her up on the radar.
[03:08] ---
    It appears they've
    lowered the defense line.
[03:10] ---
    In that case, let's keep
    heading for the destination.
[03:13] ---
    Right!
[03:14] ---
    Hey!
[03:16] ---
    Don't just start moving
    without telling anybody.
[03:21] ---
    Enough already!
[03:25] ---
    We've lost Engine No.1!
[03:26] ---
    Can we make it across on No.2?
[03:28] ---
    I'll give it a shot.
[03:32] ---
    Old timer!
[03:33] ---
    Don't worry.
[03:34] ---
    We should be able to handle these guys.
[03:37] ---
    We've got an improved battery.
    Our energy will hold.
[03:40] ---
    Leave the rear guard to us. So Ray...
[03:44] ---
    that means it's up to
    you to protect the front.
[03:47] ---
    Save some fun for us.
[03:49] ---
    In that case...
[03:50] ---
    you'd better hurry
    up and clear the enemy.
[03:53] ---
    Hey, kid.
[03:54] ---
    Who do you think we are?
[03:56] ---
    But there's more Armor
    behind us every second.
[03:59] ---
    Shoot! We'll have to go back.
[04:01] ---
    No you won't.
[04:02] ---
    Not with me here.
[04:05] ---
    Listen to her.
[04:07] ---
    Pricilla.
[04:08] ---
    Yeah?
[04:09] ---
    Make it through here and we'll
    give Van to you as a husband.
[04:12] ---
    What?!
[04:13] ---
    You'd be a perfect wife for him.
[04:16] ---
    But it's not up to you.
[04:19] ---
    We've already decided. It's no problem.
[04:22] ---
    We'll hold a righteous wedding for you two.
[04:24] ---
    So don't die, all right?
[04:29] ---
    All right.
[04:30] ---
    But I'd really like to start off
    by first going on a date.
[04:35] ---
    A date?
[04:36] ---
    In that case, we know a great place.
[04:37] ---
    It's in our hometown.
[04:39] ---
    We'll tell you where it is
    after we finish all of this.
[04:42] ---
    Thanks.
[04:44] ---
    Let's go!
[04:45] ---
    Right!
[04:50] ---
    Eldora Soul!
[04:52] ---
    Dungun Bombadiro!
[05:02] ---
    I'm surrounded by idiots.
[05:03] ---
    Big brother, up ahead!
    There's another unit!
[05:06] ---
    Shit. They don't mess around.
[05:29] ---
    Birthday!
[05:31] ---
    Just hearing the name gets me excited.
[05:34] ---
    A new world born from my coffin!
[05:37] ---
    Body designed to match brain type,
    with fluid control capabilities.
[05:41] ---
    Naturally it's unarmed,
[05:43] ---
    but the underlying specs are
    superior to those of the Original 7.
[05:45] ---
    You didn't have to go that far.
[05:48] ---
    I'm sorry.
[05:50] ---
    It was selfish, but we wanted to go beyond
[05:52] ---
    the mother planet's technology.
[05:54] ---
    I appreciate your desire for a challenge.
[05:57] ---
    Fasalina.
[05:58] ---
    Yes.
[05:59] ---
    I'm sorry for calling you back.
[06:02] ---
    But I absolutely wanted you to
    see this on behalf of the Original 7.
[06:08] ---
    I'm honored.
[06:09] ---
    Comrade.
[06:10] ---
    Yes?
[06:11] ---
    The "Blessing Bell" is ready.
[06:12] ---
    Yes, Fasalina's here now,
    so please go ahead as planned.
[06:17] ---
    Very well, then.
[06:20] ---
    First party, open.
[06:23] ---
    Starting "Birthday Celebration."
[06:27] ---
    Happy Birthday.
[06:29] ---
    Congratulations!
[06:31] ---
    Congratulations...!
    Congratulations...!
[06:39] ---
    Second party, open.
[06:41] ---
    Circumterrestrial space,
    start reconstruction program.
[06:44] ---
    Terraforming base, commence ascent.
[06:49] ---
    Don't tell me we're having
    an earthquake now?
[06:51] ---
    It could be a secret enemy weapon.
[06:53] ---
    We can't worry about that now.
[07:29] ---
    It's now or never.
[07:34] ---
    What's that?
[07:35] ---
    What?
[07:46] ---
    Verify coordinate axis.
[07:47] ---
    Rising, entering stable region.
[07:49] ---
    Phase changeover at designated altitude.
[07:51] ---
    Rotational axis reconfirmed.
[07:53] ---
    Commencing Auto Balancer operation.
[07:55] ---
    Refined net deployment complete.
[07:57] ---
    Consigning attitude support to pilot mode.
[08:00] ---
    Secure E-line.
[08:01] ---
    Prison Planet Destroyer
    intervention complete.
[08:04] ---
    Moving on to partial system modification
[08:06] ---
    in accordance with main plan.
[08:18] ---
    Secure terraforming base to fixed location.
[08:20] ---
    Roger.
[08:21] ---
    Secured to fixed location.
[08:23] ---
    Proceed to third party after
    confirming system renewal.
[08:26] ---
    Comrade.
[08:27] ---
    Yes, I know.
[08:30] ---
    We can't just leave it as
    a weapon of mass murder.
[08:37] ---
    Joshua, the location of the light
    beam and the place we're going?
[08:40] ---
    Yes, they're the same.
[08:42] ---
    Then he must be there too.
[08:46] ---
    I apologize for earlier. Shall we continue?
[08:51] ---
    She doesn't know when to stop.
[08:52] ---
    Stopping!
[08:59] ---
    She's right on the axis! Go!
[09:01] ---
    All right!
[09:05] ---
    It doesn't do any good unless you hit me.
[09:07] ---
    That's what you think.
[09:18] ---
    Too bad you couldn't finish me off.
[09:21] ---
    It takes a long time to load
    that launcher, doesn't it?
[09:24] ---
    Oh, you really know your stuff.
[09:26] ---
    Yes. The outcome is already decided.
[09:30] ---
    Big brother, I'll come reload it!
[09:31] ---
    That's all right.
[09:33] ---
    You all go back.
[09:34] ---
    But your eyes!
[09:36] ---
    Go back!
[09:45] ---
    You fight with a private grudge.
[09:48] ---
    We fight to protect our Comrade's dream.
[09:52] ---
    Life is stronger when
    it's protecting something.
[09:58] ---
    Spoken like a knight in shining armor.
[10:01] ---
    In that case, there's
    something I want to ask you.
[10:04] ---
    I had a dream too.
[10:06] ---
    To live a quiet, peaceful
    life together with a woman.
[10:11] ---
    It was a modest dream.
[10:13] ---
    And he tore it to pieces simply
    because we wouldn't cooperate.
[10:20] ---
    He wants to share his dream
    with as many people as possible.
[10:23] ---
    And that means we can't have other dreams?!
[10:27] ---
    What do you think happens?
[10:29] ---
    What do you think happens to someone
[10:31] ---
    after their dream's
    been taken away from them?
[10:39] ---
    This will end it.
[10:43] ---
    Please, let me go ahead on my own.
[10:47] ---
    But...
[10:48] ---
    You said to stop if there was danger.
    I don't want to drag you all into...
[10:51] ---
    Joshua!
[10:52] ---
    You plan to die together with him?
[10:56] ---
    No. I'm going because
    I want to live with my brother.
[11:00] ---
    Because I want to see for
    myself if his choice was correct.
[11:04] ---
    And because I want him to
    choose the right path in the future.
[11:08] ---
    That's why I want to help my brother!
[11:12] ---
    All right, then.
[11:13] ---
    OK, let's break up into two parties.
    We'll try to find another route.
[11:17] ---
    You'll draw the enemy's attention.
[11:20] ---
    Right!
[11:21] ---
    Joshua, promise one thing.
[11:24] ---
    That no matter what,
    you won't waste your life.
[11:27] ---
    And if it gets dangerous,
    you and Ray will get out of there.
[11:32] ---
    Yes!
[11:46] ---
    Nero? Pricilla? Can you hear me?
[11:51] ---
    Guess we'll have to take
    a detour on our own.
[11:54] ---
    Damn it, Van! What the hell are you doing?!
[12:01] ---
    I don't understand.
[12:03] ---
    How can an ordinary Armor Rider
    like you, in that Armor of yours
[12:07] ---
    fight fairly with an Original 7 member?
[12:09] ---
    Oh, you didn't know?
[12:12] ---
    Volcain was the basis for the technology
[12:17] ---
    and foundation for the optical
    weapon you all are using.
[12:46] ---
    But you still can't defeat me. Not yet!
[12:50] ---
    Now I'm going to crush your cockpit.
[12:54] ---
    Big brother!
[12:57] ---
    I told him to go back.
    What's he doing, the idiot!
[13:07] ---
    The cannon's...
[13:16] ---
    You can't go. You can't...
[13:25] ---
    We'll be there in about 30 minutes.
[13:28] ---
    You can't use the cannon,
[13:29] ---
    so please make the left arm
    execution shells your primary weapon.
[13:32] ---
    If we run into any other
    forces, I can use the...
[13:34] ---
    Joshua.
[13:35] ---
    Yeah?
[13:36] ---
    There's something I wanted to ask you.
[13:39] ---
    Did you like Shino?
[13:45] ---
    Of course I did.
[13:47] ---
    How couldn't I? She was
    so charming and beautiful...
[13:55] ---
    Yes, I liked her.
[13:58] ---
    You did?
[13:59] ---
    Yes. That's why I envied you.
[14:04] ---
    You had her and her Armor.
[14:08] ---
    But I couldn't become like you.
    Even after she died I couldn't.
[14:16] ---
    I was incredibly sad,
    but I couldn't do the things you did.
[14:21] ---
    I'm a coward.
[14:23] ---
    That's not true.
[14:24] ---
    But...
[14:27] ---
    I was running away from sadness.
[14:32] ---
    I'm still running away now.
[14:35] ---
    I have to, otherwise the loss
    of Shino would be unbearable.
[14:40] ---
    I'm the coward.
[14:45] ---
    But that's over now too.
[14:49] ---
    After I settle things with him,
    I'll go back to who I was before.
[14:53] ---
    And I'll deal with Shino's death again.
[14:59] ---
    Big brother...
[15:00] ---
    Find your own dream.
[15:04] ---
    Do what you want, and don't
    let anyone stand in your way.
[15:08] ---
    My dream is to be with you from now on...
[15:23] ---
    Third party, open.
[15:24] ---
    Open!
[15:28] ---
    Entrance gear tuning, complete.
    Start all systems normally.
[15:34] ---
    Run safety balancer.
    Confirm absorber start up.
[15:40] ---
    Release SD lock. Switch pilot
    system over to SD main body.
[15:45] ---
    Set to stand alone.
[15:46] ---
    Party open. Raise the curtain.
[15:49] ---
    Raise the curtain.
[16:26] ---
    Oh, please, my body,
    don't give out on me yet.
[16:31] ---
    Comrade! The defense line!
[16:34] ---
    The intruder that broke through
    Fasalina's foolproof defense line
[16:37] ---
    is heading right towards you!
[16:40] ---
    Comrade, please evacuate!
[16:47] ---
    I knew there'd be an obstacle.
[16:50] ---
    But my dream won't let me die.
[16:53] ---
    Right this way! You are the
    brilliant light of the new world!
[16:58] ---
    Headquarters, this is Saudade!
[17:00] ---
    I've just now returned.
[17:02] ---
    I will eliminate the intruder immediately.
[17:06] ---
    I want the entire staff to
    focus on supporting our Comrade.
[17:11] ---
    Michael...
[17:18] ---
    Everyone, don't stop!
[17:22] ---
    Forgive me, Volcain.
[17:38] ---
    What's this?
[17:42] ---
    Carmen!
[17:43] ---
    I know. I know.
[17:44] ---
    I can see!
[18:00] ---
    What about Saudade?
    What happened to Saudade?
[18:02] ---
    There's no reply. We're presently checking.
[18:04] ---
    Comrade, there's been an emergency!
    Please come back.
[18:08] ---
    We need to temporarily call off the plan.
[18:10] ---
    We have the Prison Planet
    Destroyer controls here.
[18:13] ---
    We'll try again later,
    after we've dealt with all this.
[18:15] ---
    No, I don't want to do that.
    Not after we've come this far.
[18:18] ---
    Besides, it doesn't look
    like he'll let me go back.
[18:32] ---
    Life is death. Death is eternal.
[18:35] ---
    That is the chain which
    extends across all living things.
[18:38] ---
    Come now, you sinners and born fools
[18:44] ---
    give your blessings and take heed
    for today is the end of the world.
[18:49] ---
    Take all the sins you've accumulated
    and hold them above your heads.
[18:54] ---
    And let us wait for the
    arrival of a new dream
[18:57] ---
    soon to descend from the sky.
[19:00] ---
    Comrade! Please get away from there!
[19:02] ---
    What's the Security Force doing?
[19:04] ---
    We've sent the team from the power room.
[19:05] ---
    They'll be there in five minutes.
[19:06] ---
    That's too late!
[19:09] ---
    We sinners...
[19:11] ---
    We fools...
[19:13] ---
    Suckling infants of a new world...
[19:16] ---
    Those upon whom this day
    of death is to be conferred.
[19:33] ---
    No, I'll also kill our
    Comrade if I use Saudade.
[19:40] ---
    I'm afraid this is where it ends.
[19:43] ---
    I can't afford to spend
    any more time with you.
[19:46] ---
    A long time dream is about to blossom.
[19:51] ---
    Do you know...?
[19:53] ---
    Do you know what happens to a man...
[19:55] ---
    who's been deprived of his dream?
[19:58] ---
    His heart and body are
    tormented by uncontrollable pain,
[20:05] ---
    anger and grief which
    he can never get over.
[20:10] ---
    Can you imagine that kind of suffering?
[20:12] ---
    Choose! Your life or your dream?!
[20:16] ---
    What?
[20:24] ---
    Too bad.
[20:26] ---
    No, that'll do just fine.
[20:56] ---
    The system's been damaged!
[20:57] ---
    That's why we should
    have lowered the barrier!
[20:59] ---
    We can't hide the symbol
    of the new world's birth!
[21:02] ---
    But the whole thing's pointless if we stop!
[21:04] ---
    Comrade!
[21:07] ---
    Your dream is over.
[21:22] ---
    I did it!
[21:30] ---
    Thank you... Josh...
[21:34] ---
    Big brother, I'm coming to help!
[21:36] ---
    I'll be there in just a sec.
[21:37] ---
    So answer me! Big brother!
[21:56] ---
    Are you awake, Ray?
[21:59] ---
    Yeah, I had a dream.
[22:03] ---
    What kind of dream?
[22:05] ---
    It was a sad dream.
[22:15] ---
    But it's over now.
[22:22] ---
    I'm sorry I left you all alone.
[22:28] ---
    Welcome home, Ray.
[23:56] ---
    "Fool Comes by Armor"
[23:57] ---
    That was the day everyone in
    the world looked up at the sky.

[24:01] ---
    I guess people had all sorts of feelings...
[24:04] ---
    ...some were worried, some just
    surprised, some keeping an eye out...

[24:07] ---
    ...to see what would happen.
[24:10] ---
    What about me?
[24:12] ---
    I waited patiently while
    remembering all the things

[24:16] ---
    that had happened up until then.
[24:18] ---
    The thing I was waiting for was...
[24:21] ---
