[00:01] ---
    Freddie, take this.
[00:03] ---
    Give it to Build Divers.
[00:06] ---
    ...that this is our last remaining key
    to turn the tide.
[00:12] ---
    It seems transporting that key
    was the mission objective.
[00:16] ---
    As usual, things in that Story mission
    aren't clearly explained.
[00:21] ---
    And that machine, too.
[00:24] ---
    It was called Seltsam.
[00:26] ---
    A Mk-III based Gunpla.
[00:29] ---
    Is this the machine you're looking for?
[00:32] ---
    I'm almost positive the base is the same,
[00:34] ---
    but the silhouette is nothing like
    the registration data.
[00:38] ---
    Maybe it's been customized?
[00:39] ---
    Not a chance.
[00:41] ---
    In GBN, the Gunpla you control
    is scanned and turned into data.
[00:45] ---
    As long as you're logged in
    with a Mk-III based Gunpla,
[00:48] ---
    it's impossible to
    customize it this much in GBN.
[00:53] ---
    So, did you make contact?
[00:55] ---
    With the Diver who controls it.
[00:58] ---
    No.
[00:59] ---
    Then maybe it's just
    an event boss, after all.
[01:05] ---
    Could I ask you to keep investigating?
[01:08] ---
    Alright.
[01:10] ---
    Either way...
[01:13] ---
    it's amazing you were able to
    get away from this thing.
[01:18] ---
    Maybe your team's actually doing well.
[01:21] ---
    Team?
[01:22] ---
    Is it not?
[01:24] ---
    A team is a group capable of
[01:27] ---
    using its resources towards
    a common goal, right?
[01:30] ---
    This party doesn't
    meet that qualification.
[01:33] ---
    And to continue with
    the investigation...
[01:36] ---
    I don't need to be with that party.
[01:38] ---
    Wow. So harsh.
[01:40] ---
    But...
[01:44] ---
    With that party, might you find
    what you're seeking for yourself?
[01:50] ---
    I can't say. But...
[01:53] ---
    I don't think it's just me...
[01:56] ---
    who's searching for something.
[03:34] ---
    "Duty and Illusion"
[03:41] ---
    We were completely outmatched.
[03:49] ---
    That machine was...
[03:50] ---
    Hiroto.
[03:52] ---
    Hiroto!
[03:53] ---
    Huh? Oh, what is it?
[03:55] ---
    What are you daydreaming about?
[03:57] ---
    Kuga, how about we go together
    for a change?
[03:59] ---
    Round Bay by the station.
[04:02] ---
    No, I'll pass.
[04:08] ---
    Kuga's such a spoilsport.
[04:11] ---
    He wasn't like that before.
[04:13] ---
    Oh...
[04:14] ---
    Let's invite him again sometime.
[04:27] ---
    Hinata, you're going to be late.
[04:29] ---
    Oh, yeah.
[04:32] ---
    Just like I thought. That day...
[04:39] ---
    Did something happen?
[04:43] ---
    With that girl.
[04:54] ---
    Let's work hard as teammates.
[04:56] ---
    Yes. Can't wait to play together.
[04:59] ---
    I'm sorry.
    It's because I rushed out on my own.
[05:03] ---
    No, it's not your fault, Princess.
[05:05] ---
    Yeah, we're to blame for
    not being able to support you.
[05:09] ---
    You're going to forgive me?
[05:11] ---
    - Of course!
    - Of course!
[05:15] ---
    The Story mission.
[05:17] ---
    Yeah.
[05:29] ---
    Your expression tells me nothing.
[05:31] ---
    Huh?
[05:34] ---
    Mr. Hiroto. Ms. May.
[05:36] ---
    Good morning.
[05:38] ---
    Hey.
[05:39] ---
    What are you doing?
[05:40] ---
    Oh, you're here.
[05:48] ---
    (I finally did it.
    Destruction count: 1)
[05:51] ---
    (Captain Kazami's
    "Walk This Way Vol. 7")
[05:55] ---
    I'm going to upload this,
    so be sure to subscribe to my channel.
[06:07] ---
    Seltsam, was it?
[06:09] ---
    It was a terrifying machine.
[06:12] ---
    We just got caught off guard
    when we were exhausted.
[06:15] ---
    I wonder if it'll appear again.
[06:18] ---
    We should come up
    with some countermeasures.
[06:20] ---
    You're worrying too much.
[06:22] ---
    It could've been an intrusive boss
    just for that stage.
[06:25] ---
    We can win if we max out
    our supplies and endurance.
[06:28] ---
    No.
[06:29] ---
    We didn't fail the last mission
[06:30] ---
    only because we met
    the clear conditions.
[06:33] ---
    We'd better be prepared.
[06:36] ---
    We could just not fight it.
[06:38] ---
    - What?
    - What?
[06:39] ---
    If we can advance
    without defeating it, that is.
[06:42] ---
    Y-Yeah...
[06:44] ---
    Max out our equipment so we'll be
    ready whenever that machine appears.
[06:50] ---
    Nothing more we can do.
[06:51] ---
    Y-Yes, you're right.
[07:00] ---
    That's the floating city Seguri.
[07:04] ---
    It's a beautiful place.
[07:06] ---
    But it doesn't seem like
    it has a headquarters.
[07:10] ---
    It's out in the open
    and an easy target for the One-eyes.
[07:14] ---
    No need to worry.
[07:18] ---
    That's...
[07:20] ---
    Seguri is a city that
    was built by the Creator,
[07:23] ---
    and it's protected by
    that wall of light.
[07:26] ---
    It's what we saw at the desert base.
[07:28] ---
    I see. It's impregnable.
[07:37] ---
    Seguri is a holy land for us,
    because the Creator was here.
[07:42] ---
    Many people gather here,
[07:44] ---
    and it flourishes as a cultural hub
    where new things are born.
[07:49] ---
    Alright, I get it, but...
[07:57] ---
    Why are there so many people?!
[08:00] ---
    Getting ready for Space Crossing.
[08:02] ---
    Space Crossing?
[08:03] ---
    An annual festival.
[08:05] ---
    Seguri is the best for shopping.
[08:08] ---
    A festival?
    Now's not the time for that...
[08:11] ---
    Excuse me...
[08:13] ---
    When are we meeting up
    with the Resistance?
[08:16] ---
    They're supposed to come for us.
[08:18] ---
    OK.
[08:43] ---
    What's wrong?
[08:45] ---
    Nothing.
[09:00] ---
    Huh? What's the matter, Par?
[09:02] ---
    Don't you think Mr. Hiroto and Ms. May
    are somewhat similar?
[09:07] ---
    Huh? Maybe, now that you mention it.
[09:10] ---
    They're both pretty blunt.
[09:12] ---
    That's not what I meant.
[09:14] ---
    Oh, they're here.
[09:26] ---
    Mr. Jed. Let me join the Resist--
[09:28] ---
    Stola, we're going to that store next.
[09:30] ---
    Wait...
[09:31] ---
    Please! Let me join the Resistance too!
[09:36] ---
    Thanks, Maiya.
[09:39] ---
    Welcome to Seguri,
    members of Build Divers.
[09:43] ---
    I am Abiree,
    the commander of the Resistance.
[09:47] ---
    Gorus has told me all about
    your great exploits.
[09:53] ---
    You must be the mysterious boy
    who controls the sacred beast.
[09:57] ---
    No, nothing like that.
[09:59] ---
    It's a miracle you survived
    an encounter with the Seltsam...
[10:02] ---
    We don't need all this dialogue.
[10:04] ---
    Just tell us about the next mission.
[10:07] ---
    Forgive me.
[10:12] ---
    This is the next mission objective.
[10:15] ---
    A relic of the Creator that
    rises toward the sky.
[10:18] ---
    We call it the Silver Tower.
[10:21] ---
    It is protected by countless One-eyes.
[10:24] ---
    We believe it's an important stronghold
    for the enemy.
[10:28] ---
    After receiving word from Muran,
    we went to scout and investigate.
[10:33] ---
    But we were attacked by
    an unknown enemy
[10:35] ---
    and forced to retreat
    before obtaining any information.
[10:40] ---
    It must be
    quite an important facility.
[10:43] ---
    We'd like to investigate
    it as soon as possible.
[10:47] ---
    I know this pattern.
[10:49] ---
    You want us to do something so you can
    send a recon team in there, right?
[10:54] ---
    Yes, we need your help.
[10:57] ---
    With that underwater monster.
[10:59] ---
    Leave it to us. We'll take care
    of the underwater monster...
[11:04] ---
    Wait... underwater?!
[11:07] ---
    Mr. Kazami?
[11:08] ---
    Underwater...
[11:09] ---
    I see... It's under the water...
[11:11] ---
    Oh yeah...
[11:13] ---
    This is for you.
[11:15] ---
    That is...?
[11:16] ---
    Mr. Muran had it.
[11:18] ---
    He entrusted it to Build Divers.
[11:21] ---
    Muran did?
[11:23] ---
    He was pursuing his own mission
    separately from the main team.
[11:27] ---
    He must've found it during that time.
[11:32] ---
    I ask that you hold on to that.
[11:35] ---
    Huh? But...
[11:37] ---
    It's proof of the trust he had in you.
[11:40] ---
    It will help you find a way out.
[11:47] ---
    An underwater battle, huh?
[11:49] ---
    Our next enemy is in the water.
[11:53] ---
    Is it the Seltsam?
[11:55] ---
    It didn't seem like a machine
    that would swim well.
[11:59] ---
    You're right.
[12:01] ---
    Um, Mr. Hiroto. Have you ever
    fought an underwater battle?
[12:05] ---
    Yeah, a few times.
[12:07] ---
    I've never done it.
[12:09] ---
    I don't have much experience.
[12:10] ---
    I hate the sea.
[12:13] ---
    It'll feel like piloting in outer space.
[12:16] ---
    As for water pressure and resistance,
    you'll have to see for yourself.
[12:21] ---
    Um...
[12:23] ---
    How about we practice
    with this Created mission?
[12:27] ---
    The Grand Dive Challenge?
[12:28] ---
    Yes. It's a popular underwater mission
    you take on as a team.
[12:33] ---
    Huh? Your bookmarks
    are all team battles.
[12:36] ---
    Oh, I was hoping to try them
    with a team one day...
[12:41] ---
    Well, sounds like a plan.
[12:43] ---
    Because we're on a roll
    as a team right now.
[12:47] ---
    Team Build Divers'
    first underwater battle.
[12:50] ---
    Let's hit the big time!
[12:53] ---
    - Yeah!
    - Yeah!
[12:56] ---
    So hard to cheer them up.
[12:59] ---
    I think that's all.
[13:01] ---
    Yes, thank you.
[13:03] ---
    Alright, should we head back?
[13:05] ---
    Mr. Hiroto?
[13:06] ---
    Go home without me.
    I'll be right back.
[13:10] ---
    He's going somewhere again?
[13:12] ---
    He disappears a lot
    when we're going home.
[13:16] ---
    Huh?
[13:17] ---
    Ms. May?
[13:20] ---
    Hey, hurry up!
[13:23] ---
    - Come on.
    - Yeah!
[13:28] ---
    Hiroto!
[13:32] ---
    I think this is a shortcut.
[13:35] ---
    Yeah. Wait for me.
[13:56] ---
    - Let's go.
    - Alright.
[14:38] ---
    Looking for something?
[14:40] ---
    Hiroto.
[14:42] ---
    Huh?
[14:45] ---
    I'm going now.
[14:47] ---
    Good work.
[14:48] ---
    Mr. Ken, where's Hiroto?
[14:50] ---
    He's still logged in.
[14:52] ---
    Brings back memories.
[14:54] ---
    He'd customize Gunpla
    late into the night
[14:57] ---
    and stay logged in till closing time.
[15:00] ---
    The old Hiroto is back.
[15:06] ---
    I wonder if he really is.
[15:08] ---
    Huh?
[15:15] ---
    It's lively.
[15:17] ---
    Just like at Freddie's village,
[15:19] ---
    their lives are full of sentiment.
[15:23] ---
    Happiness and pleasure.
[15:25] ---
    Anger and sorrow too.
[15:29] ---
    But Hiroto...
[15:30] ---
    I don't sense them from you.
[15:33] ---
    What?
[15:36] ---
    It was some time ago.
[15:38] ---
    Hiroto came home soaking wet.
[15:41] ---
    Hinata, be careful.
[15:43] ---
    Yes.
[15:50] ---
    Hiroto?
[15:51] ---
    What's wrong? Are you alright?
[15:53] ---
    Hey, Hiroto. Hiroto...
[15:56] ---
    Ever since that day...
[15:57] ---
    I remember too.
[16:01] ---
    Oh... Hiroto...?
[16:05] ---
    Ever since that day,
    he stopped laughing.
[16:09] ---
    So you haven't asked what happened.
[16:12] ---
    How could I?
[16:13] ---
    Even if I asked, it's not like
    I can do anything for him.
[16:17] ---
    I'm sure he wouldn't say either.
[16:23] ---
    But...
[16:24] ---
    The word "mission" can mean
    a duty you must fulfill.
[16:30] ---
    I am searching for my mission.
[16:35] ---
    Something one wishes to obtain.
[16:36] ---
    An ideal self to become.
[16:38] ---
    A destination to reach.
[16:40] ---
    Divers all have their own missions.
[16:44] ---
    Par can now fly.
[16:46] ---
    Kazami has learned how to look cool.
[16:48] ---
    Or so it seems.
[16:50] ---
    Hiroto, what is your mission?
[16:54] ---
    What is it you search for?
[16:57] ---
    A photo?
[16:59] ---
    Yes.
[17:00] ---
    I think it was taken in GBN.
[17:02] ---
    She was with Hiroto's Gunpla.
[17:05] ---
    I didn't know about this girl.
[17:08] ---
    I was thinking that maybe
    something happened with her in GBN.
[17:16] ---
    My mission...
[17:27] ---
    Searching for what can't be found.
[17:30] ---
    That's my mission.
[17:34] ---
    What is it that can't be found?
[17:40] ---
    I hope you find
    what you're looking for.
[17:45] ---
    Let's go home.
[17:55] ---
    Welcome to the Grand Dive Challenge.
[17:58] ---
    I am junk dealer Mayol,
    leader of Force Granada Bleu.
[18:03] ---
    I'm Kazami, captain of Build Divers.
[18:06] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[18:07] ---
    Then let's begin your sea adventure!
[18:11] ---
    Submerged 500 meters
    in the Grand Dive Pool
[18:14] ---
    are your targets: Haros.
[18:17] ---
    If even one person
    can get past our defense
[18:19] ---
    and bring a Haro to the surface,
[18:22] ---
    then you win.
[18:24] ---
    Even one person?
    Pretty easy clear condition.
[18:28] ---
    It just means they're that confident.
[18:31] ---
    But we're prepared as well.
[18:34] ---
    Underwater equipment.
    And Mr. Hiroto, too...
[18:43] ---
    Mercuone Gundam.
[18:44] ---
    You have underwater equipment too?
[18:47] ---
    You're all ready to go.
[18:50] ---
    Mission start!
[18:52] ---
    Here we go!
[19:01] ---
    As expected,
    it's cold, heavy, and dark.
[19:08] ---
    It's creaking!
[19:10] ---
    It's water pressure. Nothing strange.
[19:13] ---
    It doesn't bother you guys?
[19:15] ---
    With surface sanding and planing...
[19:18] ---
    And proper seam processing,
    this water pressure should be manageable.
[19:23] ---
    Response on the active sonar.
[19:25] ---
    2 at 12 o'clock.
    1 at 3 o'clock. 1 at 8 o'clock.
[19:30] ---
    Th-There's nothing on my radar.
[19:33] ---
    Wh-What time's 8 o'clock?
[19:38] ---
    Found you!
[19:39] ---
    Justice Thunder...
[19:42] ---
    It's so hard to move...
[19:53] ---
    That's why I hate the sea.
[19:58] ---
    M-Mr. Kazami? Mr. Kazami!
[20:01] ---
    Par, they're coming. From below.
[20:03] ---
    B-Below?
[20:05] ---
    I see it.
[20:07] ---
    M-My wings... I can't move them.
[20:11] ---
    Huh?
[20:12] ---
    Oh...
[20:15] ---
    Oh no!
[20:21] ---
    They got me.
[20:25] ---
    Now it's 2-on-4.
[20:26] ---
    We've got a huge advantage.
[20:29] ---
    On to the sea adventure!
[20:32] ---
    They're coming.
[20:35] ---
    Here we go.
[20:42] ---
    That harpoon won't work on us.
[20:44] ---
    Offense and defense in one.
[20:46] ---
    We'll show you both the sea adventure.
[20:54] ---
    Nice job dodging.
[20:55] ---
    But next time... Huh?
[21:00] ---
    He abandoned his teammate?
[21:11] ---
    Alright.
[21:18] ---
    Not bad, young Diver.
[21:21] ---
    You'll even use your teammate to win.
[21:23] ---
    Judgment as calm as the deep sea.
    I like it.
[21:28] ---
    But the sea adventure
    calls for fighting fair and square.
[21:32] ---
    Here I come, young Diver.
[21:40] ---
    Nice reactions. You're pretty good.
[21:44] ---
    What?
[21:47] ---
    I'll get you.
[21:52] ---
    Don't think you can surpass
    Zock Mayol's mobility underwater.
[22:01] ---
    Such cheap tricks won't work on me!
[22:06] ---
    I got you!
[22:09] ---
    What?!
[22:11] ---
    Nice aim, but you just used up
    your killer whale's trump card.
[22:18] ---
    What?
[22:24] ---
    He got past Mayol?!
[22:38] ---
    Congratulations! Mission cleared!
[22:44] ---
    Impressive, young Diver.
[22:47] ---
    I can't approve of
    using teammates as decoys.
[22:50] ---
    A victory is a victory.
[22:52] ---
    It's part of the sea adventure!
[22:56] ---
    We will venture into farther depths.
[22:58] ---
    Do take on the challenge again.
[23:04] ---
    I don't feel like we won at all.
[23:07] ---
    I still hate the sea.
[23:11] ---
    In the next Story mission,
    I'll go underwater on my own.
[23:15] ---
    - What?
    - What?
[23:16] ---
    Only I can locate the enemy
    underwater.
[23:20] ---
    Since we have no intel on the enemy,
    there's less risk if I go alone.
[23:25] ---
    Well, yeah, that's true, but...
[23:28] ---
    But as a team...
[23:31] ---
    You haven't changed.
