    They've broken through
    the final defense line!
[00:09] ---
    Launch the Gundam!
    Launch the Gundam!
[00:13] ---
    We're counting on you, Iori.
[00:15] ---
    I've got it.
[00:18] ---
    Sei Iori, Build Strike, here I go!
[00:35] ---
    Zakus are coming!
    But with the Gundam I made...
[00:40] ---
    Sei, it's no good!
[00:42] ---
    Is that you, Dad?
[00:45] ---
    How come you're...?
[00:46] ---
    Sei, that Gunpla you built...
[00:52] ---
    Its arm isn't snapped in properly!
[00:54] ---
    W-Why?!
[01:09] ---
    It was just a dream.
[01:12] ---
    My Gunpla!
[01:15] ---
    I see, I fell asleep
    before making its right arm.
[01:19] ---
    Sei, please look after
    the store for me.
[01:23] ---
    Okay.
[01:28] ---
    Colonel Rinko Iori is off to
    the 08th Supermarket,
[01:31] ---
    in order to procure supplies.
[01:33] ---
    Supplies for Sukiyaki?
[01:36] ---
    For vegetable stir-fry.
[01:37] ---
    No!
[01:38] ---
    Hmm? You're the one who said
    my vegetable stir-fry is the best.
[01:43] ---
    Yeah, but...
[01:47] ---
    Be good to the customers.
[01:50] ---
    What customers?
[01:52] ---
    It's not like our store is
    in front of the station.
[01:55] ---
    Or near the shopping district.
[01:59] ---
    Why did Dad make a
    plastic model store here?
[02:00] ---
    Iori Models
    Why did Dad make a
    plastic model store here?
[02:03] ---
    Iori Models
[02:06] ---
    It amazes me every time.
[02:09] ---
    All these buildings have
    people living in them.
[02:13] ---
    How many times bigger
    than Arian could it be?
[02:15] ---
    Hey!
[02:17] ---
    What are you doing there?
    Get down before you get hurt!
[02:20] ---
    It's okay, old man.
[02:23] ---
    Who are you calling old man? I'm only 25!
[02:26] ---
    Anyway, get down. Get down!
[02:34] ---
    Right.
[02:39] ---
    I've decided where to go!
[02:41] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
[02:48] ---
    Welcome!
[02:51] ---
    Gundams! So many Gundams!
[02:54] ---
    It's amazing.
[02:56] ---
    They're well made.
[02:59] ---
    Thank you very much.
[03:01] ---
    I built them for display myself.
[03:04] ---
    All of them?
[03:06] ---
    Yes.
[03:07] ---
    You're amazing.
[03:09] ---
    Oh, don't.
[03:11] ---
    If you can build them so well,
    you must play Gunpla Battle too.
[03:17] ---
    Yeah, kind of...
[03:19] ---
    You must be good.
[03:23] ---
    Runner-up in the 2nd Gunpla Battle
    Championship World Tournament?!
[03:28] ---
    That's wonderful!
[03:30] ---
    That was my dad's...
[03:35] ---
    Dad, what's this Gunpla?
[03:40] ---
    I can't quite remember...
[03:42] ---
    It's the Wing Gundam!
[03:45] ---
    It can transform into a bird
    for high-speed flight.
[03:49] ---
    It's also equipped with
    a large-caliber buster rifle.
[03:53] ---
    It excels in both
    firepower and mobility.
[03:57] ---
    By the way, it's a mobile suit
    that was developed by Doctor J...
[04:01] ---
    ...for an underground organization
    that opposed the Alliance.
[04:04] ---
    With the launch of Operation Meteor...
[04:07] ---
    A-Alright, we've got it.
[04:10] ---
    Excuse me.
[04:13] ---
    Keisuke, would you like that one?
[04:16] ---
    Yeah.
[04:18] ---
    If you can build Gunpla like him,
    you'll be able to win battles for sure.
[04:24] ---
    I wouldn't be so certain of that.
[04:29] ---
    Who are you?
[04:30] ---
    Sazaki...
[04:32] ---
    Sei Iori's Gunpla is certainly well built.
[04:36] ---
    He didn't just assemble the plastic models.
[04:39] ---
    He smoothed out the seams
    and colored them with special paint.
[04:43] ---
    He made them look just like samples.
[04:47] ---
    But just because they're built well,
    it doesn't mean they can win battles.
[04:53] ---
    Right?
[04:54] ---
    Th-That's...
[04:56] ---
    Then let's try it and see.
[04:59] ---
    Whose Gunpla is better, yours or mine?
[05:05] ---
    In a Gunpla Battle!
[05:08] ---
    I wanna see! I wanna see!
[05:09] ---
    What?!
[05:10] ---
    Your customers also want to see.
[05:15] ---
    Are you chickening out?
[05:20] ---
    Let's play Gunpla Battle.
[05:22] ---
    There you go.
[05:24] ---

    Field 3, Forest.
[05:52] ---
    Please set your Gunpla.
[06:07] ---
    Battle start.
[06:12] ---
    Sei Iori, Wing Gundam, here I go!
[06:34] ---
    I'll teach you again...
[06:37] ---
    Victory in Gunpla Battle isn't decided
    by the quality of the model alone!
[06:47] ---
    I need distance!
[06:49] ---
    I can't allow that!
[06:54] ---
    Darn...!
[07:01] ---
    Your reactions are as slow as ever!
[07:22] ---
    Battle ended.
[07:30] ---
    Wow! Your Gunpla is so strong!
[07:35] ---
    Yeah. The stronger one always wins!
[07:38] ---
    That's the only rule of Gunpla Battle!
[07:42] ---
    Dad, I want the same one he has!
[07:46] ---
    Is that so? Okay then.
[07:52] ---
    Iori Models
[07:55] ---
    Thank you very much.
[07:58] ---
    You should know now.
[08:00] ---
    You can't win at Gunpla Battle
    with your control skills.
[08:06] ---
    So why don't we team up?
[08:08] ---
    I'll fight using your
    high-performance Gunpla.
[08:12] ---
    If we enter the championship together,
    we'll earn victory and honor.
[08:17] ---
    This lame store's sales would also...
[08:19] ---
    I pass.
[08:20] ---
    Huh?
[08:22] ---
    I've answered this many times.
[08:23] ---
    You're strong, but your
    fighting style is too rough.
[08:27] ---
    I can't trust you with my Gunpla.
[08:30] ---
    You're so stubborn.
[08:33] ---
    The championship is coming soon.
[08:35] ---
    If you keep on like this,
    your defeat is inevitable.
[08:38] ---
    If you want to win,
    you should think twice about it.
[08:44] ---
    This is so frustrating...
[08:46] ---
    If only I had better control skills.
[08:50] ---
    Yeah...
[08:52] ---
    Just like my dad.
[09:16] ---
    Player Takeshi Iori has
    the top point score!
[09:22] ---
    If only I could control
    Gunpla like that...
[09:27] ---
    Sei.
[09:29] ---
    Mom.
[09:30] ---
    Is something wrong?
[09:32] ---
    No, it's nothing.
[09:35] ---
    I'm going out for a bit.
[09:36] ---
    Sei?
[09:39] ---
    I wonder what's wrong with him?
[09:46] ---
    I want to win. With my models,
    and with my ideal movements.
[09:52] ---
    I want to win at Gunpla Battle!
[10:31] ---
    The 7th Gunpla Battle Championship
    is just about to begin!
[10:35] ---
    Will you be able to survive?
[10:40] ---
    Nope.
[10:42] ---
    They all look so strong!
[10:44] ---
    Like Sazaki said, at this rate,
    if I enter the championship...
[10:48] ---
    But I'll never team up with a guy
    who treats Gunpla like that.
[10:57] ---
    I'll have to think of some way
    to win at Gunpla Battle.
[11:02] ---
    Hey.
[11:03] ---
    Huh?
[11:04] ---
    What?
[11:05] ---
    What's that video playing over there?
[11:10] ---
    Don't you know about Gunpla Battle?
[11:12] ---
    What's that?
[11:14] ---
    You build Gundam plastic models,
    or Gunpla, and fight with them.
[11:18] ---
    That video is a commercial
    for the tournament.
[11:21] ---
    Fight with them...
[11:23] ---
    So it's like mixed martial arts?
[11:26] ---
    Well, something like that.
[11:31] ---
    Looking at him closely,
    he doesn't seem to be Japanese.
[11:34] ---
    But even a foreigner would know
    what Gunpla Battle is...
[11:41] ---
    You want some? It's good.
[11:43] ---
    No thanks, I...
[11:45] ---
    Okay. Bye.
[11:51] ---
    Found you, you little thief!
[11:53] ---
    What?!
[11:56] ---
    Hey now, don't walk up to
    people and call them thieves!
[11:59] ---
    How can you say that?!
    You stole bread from my store!
[12:03] ---
    This?
[12:05] ---
    It was left outside the store.
    So I took it, that's all.
[12:11] ---
    What?!
[12:12] ---
    It's called storefront sales!
[12:14] ---
    I can't have you taking
    them without paying!
[12:17] ---
    Then put them somewhere safe!
[12:19] ---
    What did you say?
    How dare you be so brazen!
[12:23] ---
    I'll take you to the police!
[12:25] ---
    What?!
[12:27] ---
    P-Please, hold on a second!
[12:30] ---
    You're Mr. Iori's...
[12:32] ---
    I don't think he meant any harm.
[12:35] ---
    I'll pay for it this time.
[12:47] ---
    Here.
[12:48] ---
    Thanks.
[12:53] ---
    What is this?
[12:54] ---
    It felt weird in my mouth!
[12:56] ---
    Haven't you ever had soda?
[12:58] ---
    But it sure tastes good.
[13:06] ---
    Cool! It's refreshing.
[13:12] ---
    Guess I caused you trouble.
[13:14] ---
    It's not your fault.
[13:16] ---
    You just came from overseas
    and don't know Japan well, right?
[13:20] ---
    We should help others
    when they're in need.
[13:25] ---
    I'll pay you back for this.
    That's a promise.
[13:28] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[13:30] ---
    I can't do that.
[13:32] ---
    It's a matter of family dignity.
    Our honor will be harmed.
[13:36] ---
    Sounds really exaggerated.
[13:40] ---
    I'll give you this.
[13:41] ---
    What is it?
[13:43] ---
    A gem?!
[13:44] ---
    I can't take something so expensive!
[13:46] ---
    It's just a rock.
[13:48] ---
    Huh?
[13:49] ---
    And you are...
[13:52] ---
    I'm Sei. Sei Iori.
[13:55] ---
    I'm Reiji.
[13:57] ---
    Reiji.
[13:59] ---
    Sei, if you're ever in trouble,
    just make a wish on that rock.
[14:03] ---
    No matter when, no matter what,
    I'll come running.
[14:08] ---
    I'll handle any sort of trouble.
[14:13] ---
    That's a promise. I swear.
[14:20] ---
    Awesome. You're like a superhero...
[14:25] ---
    Huh? Where did he go?
[14:35] ---
    It's beautiful.
[14:38] ---
    That gem is beautiful.
[14:41] ---
    It's just a rock.
[14:43] ---
    Don't you think it's silly?
[14:45] ---
    What is?
[15:03] ---
    There.
[15:06] ---
    Mom, I finished it!
[15:11] ---
    My own unique Gunpla that I made
    for the Gunpla Battle Championship...
[15:15] ---
    The Build Strike!
[15:17] ---
    It's my own original,
    based on the Strike Gundam.
[15:23] ---
    That sounds wonderful.
[15:24] ---
    It doesn't have rifles
    and stuff yet, though.
[15:27] ---
    I don't know much about
    Gunpla as you do,
[15:31] ---
    but it has the same kind of aura
    as the models your dad built.
[15:36] ---
    You think?
[15:39] ---
    Yes.
[15:43] ---
    Looks like it's finally done.
[15:46] ---
    Sazaki...
[15:48] ---
    Hello, Sazaki.
[15:51] ---
    I see, so this is your new model
    for the championship!
[15:54] ---
    It's beautifully made.
[15:56] ---
    Just right for me to operate!
[15:58] ---
    This Gunpla isn't for you!
[16:00] ---
    Oh, you still don't get it?
[16:03] ---
    You can't win battles
    with your control skills.
[16:08] ---
    I'll prove it in this battle.
    With the Gunpla I built.
[16:14] ---
    That's the spirit.
[16:16] ---
    So if you lose...
[16:18] ---
    You can do as you like with it.
[16:20] ---
    That's what I wanted to hear!
[16:22] ---
    Are you sure, Sei?
[16:24] ---
    It's fine.
[16:25] ---
    If I can't even defeat him...
[16:28] ---
    I've heard enough.
[16:33] ---
    Ral shall be the judge of this battle.
[16:38] ---
    You came.
[16:39] ---
    Who's he?
[16:40] ---
    Mr. Ral, one of our regulars.
[16:44] ---
    You have good eyes.
[16:47] ---
    They're filled with
    confidence and ambition.
[16:50] ---
    You have guts, too.
[16:52] ---
    But nothing is guaranteed
    on the battlefield, boy.
[16:57] ---
    Welcome, Mr. Ral.
[16:59] ---
    M-Mrs. Rinko.
[17:02] ---
    Excuse me for disturbing you.

    Currently Playing
    Gunpla Battle
[17:09] ---
    Field 2, Desert.
[17:12] ---
    Let's have a good look at
    your life-or-death contest.
[17:16] ---
    Please set your Gunpla.
[17:24] ---
    Battle start.
[17:29] ---
    Sei Iori, Build Strike, here I go!
[17:35] ---
    Susumu Sazaki, Gyan, here I come!
[17:48] ---
    What'll his first move be?
[17:55] ---
    He dropped his weapons?!
[17:57] ---
    That's a sign that he'll
    fight on equal terms.
[18:00] ---
    That's not it.
[18:03] ---
    I don't want him to
    make excuses when he loses!
[18:11] ---
    He's quick!
[18:12] ---
    A Gunpla's performance
    depends on how well it's built.
[18:15] ---
    Sei's new model shows just that.
[18:18] ---
    But its performance seems to be
    too much for him to handle!
[18:29] ---
    You can build a good machine,
    but you can't control it well enough.
[18:34] ---
    That's the sad reality!
[18:56] ---
    I don't want to hurt your
    machine any more.
[18:59] ---
    I'll ring you out to end the match.
[19:06] ---
    I can't get away.
    What would Dad do?
[19:13] ---
    I'm going to lose again.
[19:14] ---
    I haven't done anything yet...
[19:19] ---
    I don't want to lose.
[19:21] ---
    I don't want to lose anymore!
[19:28] ---
    Darn it!
[19:30] ---
    Don't give up!
[19:32] ---
    Go forward!
[19:36] ---
    What?!
[19:44] ---
    Reiji. You...?
[19:46] ---
    You made a wish.
[19:48] ---
    That's why I came.
[19:54] ---
    Sei, I'm going to keep my promise.
[19:56] ---
    I'll fight in your place!
[19:59] ---
    What? But you've never
    done this before, right?
[20:01] ---
    Leave it to me!
[20:06] ---
    What are you doing with my Gunpla?!
[20:09] ---
    Is he Sei's friend?
[20:11] ---
    Haven't a clue.
[20:13] ---
    I... I can't believe it, Sei.
[20:17] ---
    You're letting an amateur
    use your machine?
[20:22] ---
    That... That Gunpla...
[20:25] ---
    It's supposed to be mine!
[20:33] ---
    Okay, I get the idea!
[20:37] ---
    Don't mess with me!
[20:47] ---
    It's his first Gunpla Battle,
    but those maneuvers...
[20:51] ---
    Is that boy a Newtype?!
[20:56] ---
    I won't accept such a thing.
[20:59] ---
    I won't accept it!
[21:07] ---
    Sei, do you have any weapons?
[21:08] ---
    In the third slot.
[21:11] ---
    A beam saber!
[21:14] ---
    Found it!
[21:23] ---
    That movement is just like my dad's...
[21:27] ---
    This is what I was looking for. My ideal...!
[21:32] ---
    What?

    Who are you?!

[00:00] ---
    Sei, wake up!
[00:03] ---
    Okay.
[00:06] ---
    Good morning, Mom.
[00:08] ---
    Yes, good morning.
[00:09] ---
    Where's Reiji?
[00:11] ---
    Still sleeping.
[00:14] ---
    I went to wake him up.
[00:16] ---
    But he kicked me
    and told me to shut up.
[00:19] ---
    So I left him alone.
[00:21] ---
    He's a strange boy, isn't he?
[00:24] ---
    He's so weird!
    The way he looks and acts...
[00:27] ---
    He has no common sense either.
[00:29] ---
    But...
[00:31] ---
    Yum! This is so good!
[00:34] ---
    You're too kind, Reiji.
[00:36] ---
    This vegetable stir-fry is my favorite.
[00:40] ---
    You want more?
[00:43] ---
    Sure!
[00:45] ---
    He isn't that bad.
[00:48] ---
    I'm done eating. I'm off.
[00:51] ---
    Sei, what about Reiji?
[00:53] ---
    You're the one who let him in, Mom.
[00:57] ---
    You deal with him.
[00:59] ---
    Bye.
[01:02] ---
    Why is he so mad?
[01:07] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai

    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara

[02:35] ---
    Episode 2
    The Crimson Comet
[02:43] ---
    Reiji, let's do this together!
[02:45] ---
    Do what together?
[02:47] ---
    Gunpla Battle!
[02:49] ---
    I'll build the Gunpla,
    and you control it.
[02:51] ---
    Then we'll enter the championship!
[02:54] ---
    Your control skills in that battle
    were really incredible.
[02:59] ---
    With my Gunpla and your technique,
    I'm sure we can...!
[03:03] ---
    No, I can't be bothered.
[03:04] ---
    What?!
[03:06] ---
    Why? Doesn't Gunpla Battle interest you?
[03:09] ---
    Not really.
[03:10] ---
    Then why did you fight just now?
[03:12] ---
    I was just paying you back.
[03:15] ---
    I kept my promise. It's over now.
[03:18] ---
    Are you kidding me?!
[03:20] ---
    Then how will you pay me back
    for last night's dinner?
[03:24] ---
    I owe that to your mom, not you.
[03:28] ---
    I was going to pay her back
    for that anyway.
[03:31] ---
    And for letting me
    stay here tonight, too.
[03:33] ---
    Stay here tonight...?
[03:36] ---
    Nighty night.
[03:42] ---
    What's wrong with you?
    You're so selfish!
[03:46] ---
    C'mon! At least brush your teeth!
[03:52] ---
    Whatever happened to
    "no matter what, I'll come running?"
[04:00] ---
    Good morning.
[04:01] ---
    You were sleeping well.
[04:04] ---
    Is bread okay for breakfast?
[04:06] ---
    Yeah, anything is fine.
[04:08] ---
    Huh? Where's Sei?
[04:10] ---
    He's gone to school.
[04:12] ---
    School? What's school?
[04:16] ---
    It's where all the children
    around Sei's age go to study.
[04:22] ---
    Wake up, Reiji.
[04:25] ---
    Hmm. School, huh...?
[04:29] ---
    From this line, you can see
    that he found it important...
[04:33] ---
    ...to pour out his true feelings
    in order to resolve the situation.
[04:37] ---
    I can't count on Reiji anymore.
[04:40] ---
    I have to fight by myself.
[04:42] ---
    My Build Strike must be fully
    equipped before the championship.
[04:47] ---
    First the weapons.
    The rifle's performance...
[04:51] ---
    Iori, can you answer this question?
[04:57] ---
    I'm fretting over it.
[04:58] ---
    If the output is too high,
    then the rifle will have to be larger,
[05:01] ---
    but that hurts the maneuverability.
    You can't fire it quickly, either.
[05:06] ---
    So I have to think of a way to
    freely change the beam output,
[05:09] ---
    without increasing
    the size of the... rifle.
[05:15] ---
    The answer is two-thirds!
[05:18] ---
    This is a literature class!
[05:22] ---
    I-I'm sorry.
[05:27] ---
    Sei's mom...
[05:29] ---
    Yes?
[05:30] ---
    This is a store, right?
[05:32] ---
    That's right.
[05:34] ---
    You don't have any customers.
[05:35] ---
    I know.
[05:39] ---
    How boring.
    I came all the way here for this.
[05:48] ---
    Thanks for the notebook, China.
    It helped a lot.
[05:51] ---
    It's okay.
[05:54] ---
    I'm sorry to interrupt
    your precious break.
[05:57] ---
    Oh please, come on in!
[06:00] ---
    That's President Yuuki
    from the senior high school!
[06:02] ---
    What brings him here?
[06:06] ---
    Mr. President! I'm Kousaka
    from the class committee.
[06:08] ---
    Do you have some business here?
[06:10] ---
    No, it's not that.
[06:12] ---
    I'm not here as council president,
    but as captain of the model-building club.
[06:17] ---
    Sei Iori.
[06:20] ---
    Huh? Yuuki!
[06:22] ---
    Iori, may I speak with you
    during lunch break?
[06:27] ---
    With... me?
[06:29] ---
    Yes, please.
[06:31] ---
    Model-Building Club
[06:36] ---
    Well done, everyone!
[06:40] ---
    Especially this Old Type Zaku!
    Check out the weathering.
[06:43] ---
    It really shows how the Zeon forces
    had to deploy even old machines.
[06:48] ---
    Thank you. I built that model myself.
[06:53] ---
    You did? That's amazing!
[06:55] ---
    No, it's not as good as yours.
[06:59] ---
    To be honest, I've been to
    Iori Models a few times.
[07:04] ---
    I've been a fan of your work ever since.
[07:08] ---
    Really?
[07:11] ---
    So you came to see me because...
[07:15] ---
    You want me to join
    the model-building club?
[07:18] ---
    If so, I'm really sorry, but
    I have to help with the store.
[07:22] ---
    No, it's not about that.
[07:24] ---
    Even though I wanted that, too...
[07:27] ---
    Then...?
[07:28] ---
    Iori, I heard rumors.
[07:30] ---
    You won against Sazaki, right?
[07:33] ---
    Sazaki is famous around this district
    for his strong skills.
[07:38] ---
    You beat that guy at Gunpla Battle.
[07:42] ---
    I assume you'll be entering
    the Gunpla Battle Championship?
[07:47] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[07:48] ---
    Alright. I look forward to it!
[07:51] ---
    Now I'll be able to fight your models.
[07:53] ---
    No, no!
[07:55] ---
    You got through the championship
    preliminaries last year,
[07:58] ---
    and you even made it to
    the World Tournament.
[08:01] ---
    I won't stand a chance.
[08:04] ---
    Plus...
[08:05] ---
    Plus?
[08:06] ---
    It wasn't my own strength
    that beat Sazaki.
[08:12] ---
    I wonder what Yuuki wanted from Iori?
[08:15] ---
    He's probably asking Iori to
    join the model-building club.
[08:18] ---
    Iori's family runs a
    hobby shop, right?
[08:21] ---
    Yes, they do.
[08:23] ---
    I get it now...
[08:25] ---
    That looks delicious.
[08:27] ---
    Huh?
[08:29] ---
    Here, have some.
[08:31] ---
    Really? Thanks!
[08:35] ---
    Mmm! It's really good!
[08:38] ---
    Who is that?
[08:39] ---
    Oh yeah. This is "school," right?
[08:42] ---
    Is Sei here?
[08:43] ---
    Sei?
[08:44] ---
    Are you talking about Iori?
[08:47] ---
    Yeah, Sei Iori.
[08:49] ---
    I knew he'd be here.
[08:51] ---
    And you are...?
[08:51] ---
    Hey, you there!
    And you are...?
[08:52] ---
    Hey, you there!
[08:53] ---
    You're on the grounds of
    the Seiho Academy.
[08:56] ---
    You're not a student here, are you?
[08:59] ---
    I came to see Sei.
[09:01] ---
    I couldn't care less.
[09:03] ---
    Get out now!
[09:04] ---
    You're rude. Who are you?
[09:07] ---
    I'm an executive member
    of the student council.
[09:10] ---
    We work to protect our students
    from disruptive people like you.
[09:15] ---
    I didn't do anything.
[09:17] ---
    The fact that you're here
    is a problem already.
[09:20] ---
    Just get off school property.
[09:22] ---
    I told you, I just came to see Sei.
[09:25] ---
    Are you disobeying me?
[09:27] ---
    You messed with me first.
[09:31] ---
    You...
[09:33] ---
    What should we do?
[09:34] ---
    There's nothing we can do.
[09:37] ---
    China, where are you going?
[09:41] ---
    I see.
[09:42] ---
    Another fighter was
    controlling your Gunpla?
[09:45] ---
    Yes.
[09:46] ---
    It's because of him that
    I was able to beat Sazaki.
[09:48] ---
    Then I'm even more intrigued.
    The championship will really—
[09:52] ---
    But he says he's not
    interested in Gunpla Battle.
[09:56] ---
    So I've given up on Reiji.
[09:59] ---
    Reiji.
[10:00] ---
    So that's your partner's name.
[10:03] ---
    Iori!
[10:04] ---
    Class Rep? What's wrong?
[10:06] ---
    There's a problem!
[10:07] ---
    What kind of problem?
[10:12] ---
    Reiji! What are you doing?!
[10:14] ---
    Hey, Sei!
[10:15] ---
    Minding the store was boring,
    so I came to see you.
[10:18] ---
    What are you talking about?
    You aren't even a student here!
[10:21] ---
    That's right. You better—
[10:24] ---
    No more! Ow!
[10:26] ---
    Why are you doing this to me?
[10:30] ---
    So he's Reiji...
[10:34] ---
    Where is Reiji?
[10:36] ---
    He said he'd help with the store
    to thank me for the meals.
[10:41] ---
    But why, President?
[10:43] ---
    Why did you allow that
    outsider into the school,
[10:46] ---
    without even informing the teachers?
[10:48] ---
    What's up with him?
[10:49] ---
    Shut up.
[10:51] ---
    Sorry, Gonda.
[10:53] ---
    I forgot to tell the council executives.
[10:57] ---
    Reiji over there is someone
    I invited to this school.
[11:01] ---
    What?
[11:03] ---
    That's not true.
[11:04] ---
    Shut up.
[11:05] ---
    Not as student council president,
[11:08] ---
    but as captain of
    the model-building club.
[11:11] ---
    Reiji is an outstanding
    Gunpla Fighter.
[11:13] ---
    He beat that Sazaki.
[11:16] ---
    Isn't that right, Iori?
[11:18] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[11:19] ---
    You won against Sazaki?
    I can't believe it.
[11:23] ---
    Who's Sazaki?
[11:24] ---
    You beat him in the battle yesterday.
[11:26] ---
    Oh, that big mouth.
[11:29] ---
    You've got a big mouth yourself, kid.
[11:31] ---
    You've got one too, you gorilla.
[11:38] ---
    President, I mean Captain,
    I have a suggestion.
[11:42] ---
    Since you invited this
    talented guy all the way here,
[11:45] ---
    why not have him show off
    his ability in Gunpla Battle?
[11:50] ---
    I'll be his opponent, as a member
    of the model-building club.
[11:55] ---
    What do you say?
[11:58] ---
    Sure thing.
[11:59] ---
    But...
[12:00] ---
    You're gonna regret it.
[12:02] ---
    Alright then.
[12:04] ---
    You guys can choose whichever
    Gunpla you like from our display.
[12:09] ---
    No, that's fine.
[12:11] ---
    I have my Gunpla with me.
[12:15] ---
    Of course you do.
    You came prepared, Iori.
[12:18] ---
    But only members of our club are
    allowed to bring Gunpla to school.
[12:24] ---
    I know. I'm sorry.
[12:29] ---
    Hey, I heard Yuuki is about to
    play Gunpla Battle in the gym.
[12:32] ---
    He's fighting a freshman who
    isn't even a club member.
[12:35] ---
    Why is there a battle system here?
    It's really expensive.
[12:40] ---
    Yuuki's father is the chairman
    of the school's support association,
[12:43] ---
    and he donated a ton of money
    to the model-building club.
[12:46] ---
    Yuuki isn't just cute, he's rich too?
[12:50] ---
    If only his hobby was playing in a band
    instead of model-building.
[12:52] ---
    Come on, that gap is
    what makes him attractive.
[12:56] ---
    Look, Gonda is gonna play.
[12:58] ---
    What? It's not Yuuki?
[13:01] ---
    Who is that gorilla?
[13:02] ---
    I'm not a gorilla!
[13:04] ---
    Is that a middle school student?
[13:06] ---
    That one kid is really cute!
[13:08] ---
    Who is he?
[13:10] ---
    Iori. And that boy...
[13:13] ---
    Are you ready?
[13:15] ---
    Yes, Captain.
[13:17] ---
    We're ready.
[13:18] ---
    Anytime now.
[13:20] ---
    In that case...
[13:22] ---
    We now begin this
    Gunpla Battle exhibition match...
[13:24] ---
    ...hosted by the Seiho Academy
    model-building club.
[13:28] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[13:36] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[13:45] ---
    It's beautiful.
[13:46] ---
    That's the light of the Plavsky particles.
[13:50] ---
    These particles, invented ten years ago,
[13:53] ---
    react only with the plastic
    from which Gunpla is made.
[13:58] ---
    By fluidly controlling the
    Plavsky particles from the outside,
[14:03] ---
    you can breathe life
    into inanimate Gunpla.
[14:07] ---
    And, thanks to
    particle transformation,
[14:10] ---
    effects such as beams and
    explosions are also added.
[14:13] ---
    The sense of realism
    is almost lifelike.
[14:17] ---
    This is Gunpla Battle, miss.
[14:21] ---
    Who is this old guy?
[14:27] ---
    Field 5, City.
[14:29] ---
    Please set your Gunpla.
[14:32] ---
    This is my Gunpla, Sumo!
[14:44] ---
    Weapons are the same
    as yesterday. Got it?
[14:46] ---
    Leave it to me.
[14:46] ---
    Battle start.
    Leave it to me.
[14:49] ---
    Piece of cake!
[14:53] ---
    Launch!
[15:04] ---
    Iori's new model is amazing.
[15:19] ---
    Reiji's control is really good!
[15:23] ---
    He's winning.
[15:25] ---
    He's a talented fighter.
[15:27] ---
    But...
[15:30] ---
    Hey, is that all?
[15:34] ---
    Above you!
[15:35] ---
    Don't underestimate me!
[15:40] ---
    Gotcha!
[15:50] ---
    That was close.
[15:51] ---
    He can dodge that?
[15:54] ---
    I'm getting excited.
[15:56] ---
    You should be dead already!
[16:01] ---
    Sorry about that.
[16:04] ---
    Oh no!
[16:09] ---
    What's that?
[16:11] ---
    The stage is changing because
    they blew a hole in the colony.
[16:15] ---
    How will they fight in
    such a fierce airflow?
[16:24] ---
    Charge right up to him!
[16:25] ---
    Seriously?!
[16:26] ---
    High-output guns like that
    have a time lag before the next shot.
[16:30] ---
    Go, Reiji!
[16:32] ---
    Alright.
[16:37] ---
    You're charging against
    this headwind?! What a fool.
[16:42] ---
    He's getting away!
[16:44] ---
    My Build Strike can do it!
[16:48] ---
    Go!
[17:06] ---
    M-My Gunpla...!
[17:09] ---
    Gonda was defeated?!
[17:10] ---
    The gorilla lost!
[17:13] ---
    Don't call me a gorilla!
[17:16] ---
    Reiji.
[17:18] ---
    Ouch!
[17:28] ---
    That ended a little too quickly.
[17:32] ---
    I feel sorry for the
    audience that showed up.
[17:37] ---
    Don't you agree?
[17:40] ---
    Yes.
[17:41] ---
    I think so.
[17:44] ---
    Yuuki?
[17:47] ---
    That jerk...
[17:49] ---
    Just as I thought.
[17:52] ---
    That Gunpla was in last year's Gunpla Battle
    Championship World Tournament.
[17:56] ---
    Tatsuya Yuuki's Zaku Amazing.
[18:01] ---
    The best among all high schoolers,
    people call him the "Crimson Comet!"
[18:07] ---
    Crimson Comet...?
[18:10] ---
    Let's do this, Sei.
[18:12] ---
    Reiji?!
[18:13] ---
    He's messing with us.
[18:15] ---
    We can't run away now!
[18:19] ---
    Sorry. And thank you.
[18:22] ---
    I apologize for
    barging into the battle.
[18:25] ---
    And I'm grateful for the chance...
[18:29] ---
    ...to fight against you!
[18:31] ---
    Shut up!
[18:37] ---
    He dodged?!
[18:38] ---
    But we're upwind of him!
[18:46] ---
    He's quick.
[18:49] ---
    Rage on...
[18:55] ---
    Rage on...
[19:00] ---
    Rage on!
[19:04] ---
    Gunpla!
[19:21] ---
    It can't be...
[19:23] ---
    What was that?
[19:26] ---
    Yuuki won!
[19:28] ---
    Amazing, it only took him seconds.
[19:31] ---
    Yuuki!
    Yuuki!
[19:34] ---
    In an instant, victory can turn into defeat.
[19:38] ---
    That's the sad truth of battle.
[19:41] ---
    And the battlefield is a wasteland...
[19:45] ---
    But who is this old guy?
[19:50] ---
    That's Yuuki's Gunpla.
[19:54] ---
    It's like a comet burning crimson...
[19:58] ---
    I can't believe I lost
    in this battle of toys.
[20:09] ---
    That jerk!
[20:12] ---
    I'm irritated by that Yuuki guy.
[20:15] ---
    Barging into a battle like that.
[20:18] ---
    But Yuuki sure built a strong Gunpla.
[20:22] ---
    With its quality, and his skills,
[20:26] ---
    he really does have the ability to be
    a World Tournament contestant.
[20:30] ---
    We completely lost.
[20:32] ---
    No, we didn't!
[20:34] ---
    He said it himself!
[20:38] ---
    Let's stop the battle here.
[20:41] ---
    Judging from your machine's
    workmanship and movement,
[20:45] ---
    it appears to be incomplete.
[20:49] ---
    I want you to perfect it
    before the championship.
[20:54] ---
    I want to fight against
    your truly completed Gunpla.
[20:59] ---
    Yuuki, why are you being so...
[21:03] ---
    I'll tell you if you can beat me.
[21:06] ---
    And the championship is
    the perfect stage for that.
[21:12] ---
    He's right. This isn't settled yet.
[21:16] ---
    Sei, complete that Gunpla.
[21:19] ---
    Reiji...?
[21:21] ---
    We have to pay him back.
    Especially for the humiliation!
[21:26] ---
    Let's play Gunpla Battle!
[21:28] ---
    Are you sure?
[21:30] ---
    It's decided!
[21:33] ---
    Reiji.
[21:36] ---
    Maybe Yuuki...
[21:38] ---
    He barged into the battle
    to fire up Reiji.
[21:48] ---
    Reiji, I'll complete this Gunpla...
[21:53] ---
    The Build Strike Gundam.
    I'll make it the best...
[21:56] ---
    ...no, the strongest machine!
[22:00] ---
    I'm counting on you!
[22:02] ---
    Yeah.
[22:07] ---
    A-Are you...
[22:09] ---
    ...glowing?
[22:10] ---
    Oh, looks like it's almost time.
[22:12] ---
    See you later, Sei.
[22:22] ---
    What's going on?!
[22:25] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[22:28] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[22:31] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[22:33] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[22:47] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[22:53] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[22:58] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[23:04] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[23:08] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[23:13] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[23:16] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[23:21] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[23:25] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[23:27] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[23:30] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[23:32] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni
[23:35] ---
    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[23:38] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[23:41] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[23:43] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,
    Mugen no chikara wo shinjitai kara
[23:48] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[23:51] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[23:55] ---
    Next Episode
[23:56] ---
    This is the fully equipped Build Strike!

[00:13] ---
    That's some precise firing.
[00:15] ---
    As such, it's easy to predict.
[00:20] ---
    It's not my style to fight
    so cautiously!
[00:24] ---
    You're a very decisive pilot.
[00:26] ---
    You're tough. However...
[00:32] ---
    Battle ended.
[00:37] ---
    Impressive, Reiji.
[00:39] ---
    But your own strength
    didn't win the battle.
[00:43] ---
    It was the performance of
    Sei's Gunpla! Don't forget it!
[00:48] ---
    I'd rather say
    your Gunpla is simply obsolete.
[00:52] ---
    Huh?
[00:53] ---
    One more battle! Just one more!
[00:55] ---
    What?
[00:56] ---
    This time, I'll fight using
    my old guerrilla tactics...
[01:02] ---
    Welcome home.
[01:04] ---
    Hey, Sei.
[01:05] ---
    Won't you join us?
[01:07] ---
    My Best Mecha Collection Gouf
    is pretty strong.
[01:10] ---
    Come with me for a sec.
[01:11] ---
    What's up?
[01:12] ---
    Just come.
[01:16] ---
    What do you want?
[01:17] ---
    Reiji, tell me clearly.
[01:20] ---
    What?
[01:21] ---
    Who... Who the heck...
[01:26] ---
    Who the heck are you?
[01:33] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[01:35] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[01:38] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[01:41] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide

    Kono sora ni azayaka na niji wo kakeyou

[01:57] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of
    Kore to itte torie mo nai
[02:00] ---
    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[02:04] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[02:08] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me

    Ready set go!!
[02:19] ---
    From the minute I felt you in my heart
    Hitori janai tte omoeta toki kara
[02:24] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[02:27] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[02:32] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[02:34] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[02:39] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[02:43] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai

    You're not alone anymore
    Kimi wa mou hitori janai!
[02:57] ---
    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[03:01] ---
    Episode 3
    Full Package
[03:06] ---
    In a totally different world
    from the one you live in...
[03:11] ---
    There was a beautiful and
    peaceful country called Arian.
[03:16] ---
    And there lived a fine prince
    who was the heir to the throne.
[03:22] ---
    Now, this prince had
    a great deal of curiosity,
[03:25] ---
    and one day he found a secret treasure
    in the treasure room of the palace.
[03:30] ---
    Suddenly, the treasure began to move,
[03:32] ---
    and the prince's body was
    surrounded by an intense light!
[03:37] ---
    The prince discovered that he
    was able to travel to your world!
[03:42] ---
    He immediately decided
    to go and explore it.
[03:46] ---
    Everything was new,
    and he had an exciting few days.
[03:51] ---
    And then,
[03:52] ---
    the prince encountered Gunpla!
[03:56] ---
    You see, that prince is me.
[04:03] ---
    I don't have a fever.
[04:06] ---
    I'm not sick, either.
[04:08] ---
    I see. So you're a prince
    from another world,
[04:12] ---
    and you just happened
    to come to Earth.
[04:15] ---
    You finally get it.
[04:16] ---
    I get that you're insane.
[04:20] ---
    Are you messing with me?
[04:21] ---
    You'd have to be crazy
    to believe such a silly story.
[04:25] ---
    But it's true.
[04:26] ---
    You saw me glow and disappear, right?
[04:30] ---
    The sunset must have dazzled me
    so it looked like you vanished.
[04:34] ---
    Are you ever gonna believe me?
[04:37] ---
    Okay, then prove it to me.
[04:39] ---
    Take me to this other world.
[04:41] ---
    That I can't do.
[04:42] ---
    Then show me something
    like psychic powers or magic.
[04:46] ---
    You read too much manga.
[04:49] ---
    Darn you!
[04:51] ---
    Is that all you wanted to ask?
[04:53] ---
    I was watching the store,
    so I'm going back.
[04:56] ---
    W-We're not done talking.
[04:57] ---
    Anyway...
[04:59] ---
    Don't you have something else to do?
[05:03] ---
    I want you to perfect it
    before the championship.
[05:08] ---
    I want to fight against
    your truly completed Gunpla.
[05:15] ---
    Yeah, you're right.
[05:17] ---
    But...
[05:18] ---
    Sei, I'm taking some time off
    starting tomorrow.
[05:21] ---
    Hey, wait!
[05:23] ---
    What the heck?
[05:27] ---
    What? So he's a prince
    from another world?
[05:31] ---
    I knew Reiji was strange, but
    it turns out he's really strange.
[05:35] ---
    Don't believe it so quickly, Mom.
[05:39] ---
    But why would he tell
    such an obvious lie?
[05:43] ---
    I'm sure he has his reasons.
[05:45] ---
    Huh? Like what?
[05:47] ---
    I don't know.
[05:49] ---
    But whoever Reiji is,
[05:51] ---
    you want to play
    Gunpla Battle with him.
[05:55] ---
    Right?
[06:00] ---
    True, he is the only guy who
    can ideally move my Gunpla.
[06:07] ---
    It might sound selfish,
[06:09] ---
    but I need his strength to
    get through the championship.
[06:49] ---
    Reiji said he was
    taking off for a while.
[06:53] ---
    I wonder when he's coming back.
[06:56] ---
    You're late.
[07:00] ---
    Sorry. I'm still not
    used to this world.
[07:03] ---
    This world?
[07:04] ---
    Anyway, are you sure
    it's going to work out this time?
[07:07] ---
    They've all been lousy ones so far.
[07:10] ---
    I know. Follow me.
[07:15] ---
    It's been ten years since
    Plavsky particles were invented.
[07:18] ---
    And this is the seventh year of
    the Gunpla Battle championship.
[07:22] ---
    The popularity of Gunpla
    has spread throughout Asia,
[07:25] ---
    and even North America and Europe.
[07:29] ---
    But there are people who have always
    loved Gundam and Gunpla,
[07:33] ---
    even before the Gunpla Battle boom.
[07:36] ---
    They're like old soldiers who have
    been through many battles.
[07:39] ---
    Such people gather after work,
[07:42] ---
    and free themselves by
    fighting night after night.
[07:45] ---
    Here is their battlefield.
[08:04] ---
    What do you think?
[08:05] ---
    Nice.
[08:06] ---
    They all look like fanatics.
[08:10] ---
    L-Lieutenant!
[08:12] ---
    Lieutenant Ral!
[08:16] ---
    Sieg Zeon! Sieg Zeon!
    Sieg Zeon! Sieg Zeon!
[08:20] ---
    Sieg Zeon!
    Sieg Zeon!
[08:22] ---
    What are they doing?
[08:24] ---
    They're greeting us.
[08:26] ---
    Have you come to sortie?
    It's been ages, sir.
[08:29] ---
    I'd be proud to play with you!
[08:31] ---
    No, it's not I who'll fight today.
[08:34] ---
    It's this boy.
[08:36] ---
    He's still just a kid.
[08:38] ---
    But he must be special
    for you to recommend him.
[08:43] ---
    When did you start with Gunpla?
    How many have you built?
[08:47] ---
    I've never built one.
[08:49] ---
    You've never built one before?
[08:52] ---
    If you're not gonna build one,
    go buy a doll to play with!
[08:56] ---
    Now, now, people.
[08:58] ---
    A warrior must show his strength
    not by words, but on the battlefield.
[09:03] ---
    Lend this boy a hand.
[09:06] ---
    If you say so, sir.
[09:08] ---
    Reiji, you can also rent Gunpla here.
    Choose one you like.
[09:13] ---
    Give me the weakest Gunpla of them all.
[09:18] ---
    Here is the machine you ordered.
[09:21] ---
    What's this?
[09:22] ---
    An Earth Federation Forces
    combat pod called the Ball.
[09:25] ---
    Also known as the spherical coffin.
[09:28] ---
    Good. Okay, let's do this.
[09:31] ---
    Let's play Gunpla Battle for real!
[09:34] ---
    Bring it on, kid.
[09:36] ---
    I'll make you cry like a baby.
[09:44] ---
    Battle ended.
[09:46] ---
    S-So strong...
[09:48] ---
    Is this kid from the Flanagan Institute?
[09:51] ---
    I knew you could do it, Reiji.
[09:54] ---
    It's impressive that you beat
    experienced soldiers with a Ball.
[09:57] ---
    Mr. Ral.
[09:58] ---
    What?
[09:59] ---
    I now know two things.
[10:01] ---
    First, having used that Gunpla,
    I see how great Sei's Gunpla really is.
[10:06] ---
    And second, these guys aren't
    skilled enough to practice with.
[10:14] ---
    His...
[10:16] ---
    Tatsuya Yuuki's Gunpla
    is way stronger than this.
[10:21] ---
    I want more. Isn't there
    anyone stronger around here?
[10:25] ---
    Don't get carried away, kid.
[10:27] ---
    Don't mess with grown-ups!
[10:31] ---
    Five against one? That's crazy.
[10:34] ---
    They're still just small fry!
[10:50] ---
    No! Stop the fight!
[10:53] ---
    Are you kidding? Just for this?
[10:55] ---
    This is it!
[11:10] ---
    What?!
[11:13] ---
    With only two shots, he shot
    down five Gunpla in motion...
[11:19] ---
    That Gunpla is...
[11:24] ---
    Who are you?
    Don't barge into my battle!
[11:29] ---
    Oops, you didn't need me?
[11:31] ---
    Fellini...
[11:35] ---
    You're Ricardo Fellini of Italy.
[11:41] ---
    You're interesting.
    How about playing head-to-head?
[11:46] ---
    Sounds fun.
[11:50] ---
    Dad. Dad!
[11:57] ---
    Sei, I finally did it.
[11:59] ---
    I finished my Gunpla
    for the championship.
[12:03] ---
    Fly, Gundam!
[12:09] ---
    What do you think?
[12:10] ---
    Cool!
[12:11] ---
    Right? It sure is!
[12:15] ---
    Iori?
[12:17] ---
    Hey, Iori.
[12:24] ---
    Class Rep...?
[12:25] ---
    Sorry, I must've fallen asleep.
[12:28] ---
    The teacher wants to
    close up this art room.
[12:30] ---
    Okay.
[12:32] ---
    That's Gunpla, right?
[12:34] ---
    Yeah.
[12:35] ---
    The shape looks different
    from when I last saw it.
[12:39] ---
    Yeah. I finally finished it.
[12:43] ---
    This Gunpla has everything
    that I could imagine.
[12:48] ---
    It's the Build Strike Full Package.
[12:51] ---
    It has a variable-output beam rifle,
[12:53] ---
    a multi-layered chobham shield,
[12:56] ---
    and a backpack fighter that can
    transform and move independently.
[13:00] ---
    And with the backpack, its power
    is increased by over 160 percent.
[13:06] ---
    I don't understand,
    but it sure sounds strong.
[13:09] ---
    It's not only strong, but quick!
[13:11] ---
    So souped-up that an ordinary fighter
    wouldn't be able to handle it.
[13:15] ---
    But I built it because
    Reiji should be able to control it.
[13:19] ---
    Is Reiji the guy who came
    to school the other day?
[13:23] ---
    Yeah. I'm going to enter the
    Gunpla Battle Championship with him.
[13:29] ---
    I've got to go!
    Sorry for talking so much.
[13:32] ---
    Oh.
[13:33] ---
    Please don't tell the teacher
    I was building Gunpla here.
[13:36] ---
    Yeah, I know.
[13:38] ---
    Thanks.
[13:43] ---
    Come to think of it...
[13:45] ---
    When we talked for the first time,
    at the beginning of school...
[13:51] ---
    Um, excuse me.
[13:54] ---
    Iori?
[13:55] ---
    Oh, Class Rep?
[13:57] ---
    Oh yeah, you joined the art club.
[14:00] ---
    I have permission from the teacher.
[14:03] ---
    I came to borrow a chisel.
[14:08] ---
    What?
[14:09] ---
    Oh, just thinking that the drawing was good,
    but the colors are even better!
[14:15] ---
    Th-Thanks.
[14:18] ---
    Do you like art?
[14:19] ---
    Huh? Why?
[14:21] ---
    The teacher praised
    your drawing during art class.
[14:26] ---
    Nah, I'm only interested
    in drawing sketches.
[14:30] ---
    I want to be able to sketch out
    the images in my head,
[14:34] ---
    so I wanted to learn
    the basics of drawing.
[14:37] ---
    What for?
[14:40] ---
    Gunpla.
[14:52] ---
    This is what Iori pours
    his heart and soul into...
[14:56] ---
    This is what he loses sleep to create...
[15:00] ---
    This is Iori's artwork.
[15:03] ---
    It's Gunpla.
[15:13] ---
    This is a good shield!
[15:23] ---
    My Gyan is the best.
[15:25] ---
    With this, I can fight
    for another ten years!
[15:36] ---
    That's a pretty good
    Gunner Zaku Warrior.
[15:39] ---
    It's a shame I have to damage it.
[15:54] ---
    But it's not good enough
    to drive me into a rage.
[15:57] ---
    Match 4
[15:58] ---
    Match 4
    Winner Tatsuya Yuuki
[15:59] ---
    I'm left unsatisfied and frustrated.
[16:02] ---
    Is it arrogant of me
    to wish for a true battle?
[16:10] ---
    Kousaka?
[16:12] ---
    President Yuuki.
[16:15] ---
    I didn't know you were
    interested in Gunpla Battle.
[16:19] ---
    No, it's not like that.
[16:21] ---
    Then I guess you're here to cheer
    for your classmate Iori.
[16:26] ---
    He should be up after this match.
[16:41] ---
    Battle ended.
[16:45] ---
    My best Gunpla...
[16:47] ---
    President, everyone here worked
    really hard to build those robots.
[16:53] ---
    Why would they fight with them?
[16:57] ---
    It's all because they
    worked so hard on them.
[17:01] ---
    Their own Gunpla is the strongest.
[17:04] ---
    Even if it damages their machines,
    they want to prove it.
[17:07] ---
    That's why.
[17:09] ---
    To prove their strength?
[17:12] ---
    Iori's here.
[17:15] ---
    Hmm? I don't see his partner...
[17:19] ---
    Match 7
[17:20] ---
    We now begin match seven
    of the first round...
[17:22] ---
    ...of the regional qualifying tournament.
[17:26] ---
    Is he going to fight by himself?
[17:29] ---
    But his control skills are...
[17:33] ---
    Iori.
[17:36] ---
    It's true...
[17:37] ---
    Reiji just wanted revenge on Yuuki.
[17:40] ---
    I'm the one who wanted to win
    the championship, not him.
[17:42] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[17:44] ---
    I dragged him into this,
[17:46] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[17:46] ---
    I dragged him into this,
[17:47] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[17:47] ---
    and then got my own hopes up...
[17:49] ---
    Like they say in Gundam,
    that's just my ego.
[17:53] ---
    Field 3, Forest.
[17:53] ---
    Like they say in Gundam,
    that's just my ego.
[17:53] ---
    Field 3, Forest.
[17:55] ---
    I mean, he has no common sense.
    And he's so willful.
[17:59] ---
    It's like he really does
    come from another world.
[18:02] ---
    Please set your Gunpla.
[18:09] ---
    But even so...
[18:16] ---
    We made a promise!
    We were going to fight together.
[18:20] ---
    Why? Why, Reiji?
[18:25] ---
    You fool!
[18:26] ---
    Who's a fool?
[18:31] ---
    Sorry I'm late.
[18:35] ---
    Reiji!
[18:37] ---
    What happened to you?
[18:39] ---
    I'm fine. Let's start.
[18:42] ---
    Can you fight without practice?
[18:46] ---
    Trust me.
[18:49] ---
    I'll do that.
[18:50] ---
    Take the Gunpla I built,
    a machine made just for you.
[18:55] ---
    The Build Strike Full Package!
[18:59] ---
    It's so perfect.
[19:01] ---
    It was supposed to be mine!
[19:04] ---
    I'm impressed that you
    completed it to that level, Sei.
[19:16] ---
    Let's go, Reiji!
[19:17] ---
    Yeah!
[19:18] ---
    Battle start.
[19:21] ---
    Build Strike Full Package!
[19:23] ---
    Let's go!
[19:44] ---
    This is an amazing Gunpla, Sei!
[19:48] ---
    It's you who's amazing.
[19:50] ---
    The performance is way higher,
    but you control it like your own body.
[19:54] ---
    How do you do it?
[19:56] ---
    I can't believe you made me
    fight 200 battles with you.
[20:03] ---
    Show them that your skills are
    equally matched with the Italian champ!
[20:10] ---
    Target acquired! Beam rifle!
[20:13] ---
    Go!
    Go!
[20:24] ---
    Where does that power come from?!
[20:27] ---
    With only one shot...!
[20:28] ---
    Wow.
[20:32] ---
    Battle ended.
[20:34] ---
    That was easy, Sei!
[20:37] ---
    Huh?
[20:38] ---
    We won round one.
[20:42] ---
    With the Gunpla I built.
[20:45] ---
    Why are you looking so weepy?
[20:47] ---
    We're gonna keep winning, right?
[20:49] ---
    Yeah.
[20:51] ---
    Let's practice more
    for next week's round two!
[20:54] ---
    Tough training, right?
    Tough training!
[21:07] ---
    Now I've seen it, Iori.
[21:10] ---
    The true performance
    of your new model...
[21:24] ---
    So this is Gunpla.
[21:31] ---
    Reiji the fighter,
    and Sei Iori the builder.
[21:35] ---
    I never expected to see boys like them
    at a regional qualifying tournament.
[21:40] ---
    Now I'm really excited
    for the World Tournament!
[21:44] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[21:47] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[21:50] ---

    Yume wo mitakutte
[21:52] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[22:07] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[22:13] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[22:17] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[22:23] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[22:27] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[22:33] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[22:35] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[22:40] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[22:44] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[22:47] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[22:49] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[22:52] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni

    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[22:57] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[23:00] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[23:03] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,
    Mugen no chikara wo shinjitai kara
[23:08] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[23:10] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[23:19] ---
    Welcome.
[23:24] ---
    Is that you, Class Rep?
[23:26] ---
    Couldn't you tell?
[23:28] ---
    I've never seen you in plain clothes.
    It's kind of a different look.
[23:33] ---
    Did you need something?
[23:35] ---
    My little brother
    wants to build a Gunpla.
[23:37] ---
    Do you have any for beginners?
[23:39] ---
    Yeah.
[23:42] ---
    I recommend this one.
[23:45] ---
    Iori.
[23:47] ---
    Are there any for girls?
[23:50] ---
    Of course.
[23:55] ---

[00:07] ---
    Hyper mega launcher incoming!
[00:09] ---
    Block it!
[00:13] ---
    Go!
    Go!
[00:21] ---
    We did it!
[00:31] ---
    Darn it.
[00:32] ---
    One more shot!
[00:35] ---
    Rifle, maximum power!
[00:37] ---
    Okay!
[00:54] ---
    The Build Strike.
[00:56] ---
    It's a customized Gunpla
    based on the Strike Gundam.
[01:00] ---
    Its main weapon is
    a medium-type beam rifle.
[01:03] ---
    Presumably, the output of
    the beam is variable.
[01:06] ---
    At high output, it rivals that
    of a hyper mega launcher.
[01:10] ---
    Such high output...
    How does the rifle endure it?
[01:15] ---
    Please look at this.
[01:17] ---
    The barrel interior probably uses
    metal parts for improved durability.
[01:23] ---
    Also, the shield withstood
    a shot from a hyper mega launcher.
[01:28] ---
    Considering its
    state of damage afterwards,
[01:31] ---
    it may be a normal shield overlaid
    with thin, narrow plastic boards.
[01:38] ---
    That would take such perseverance...
[01:41] ---
    Did that boy build it all by himself?
[01:45] ---
    It's fate.
[01:47] ---
    The builder, Sei Iori, is the son of...
[01:51] ---
    ...the runner-up in the 2nd Gunpla Battle
    Championship World Tournament,
[01:55] ---
    Takeshi Iori.
[01:59] ---
    I see. No wonder.
[02:02] ---
    Even so, our victory is certain.
[02:06] ---
    After all, a battle begins...
[02:11] ---
    ...long before you enter the battlefield.
[02:15] ---
    ...and make it!
    Open the box, just can't wait...
[02:20] ---
    Gunpla The World!
[02:23] ---
    Build it, build it, it's so exciting!
[02:25] ---
    Build Gunpla World!
[02:30] ---
    Kirara!
    Kirara!
[02:33] ---
    Thank you, everybody!
[02:37] ---
    Kiraran!
[02:41] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[02:43] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[02:46] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[02:49] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide
[02:53] ---
    And create a bright rainbow up in the sky
    Kono sora ni azayaka na niji wo kakeyou
[03:03] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
[03:05] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of
    Kore to itte torie mo nai
[03:09] ---
    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[03:12] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[03:16] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me
    Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku
[03:20] ---
    When I'm alone inside (Flash back)
    Kokoro no naka de hitori ni naru to (Flash back)
[03:22] ---
    I synchronize with you (Mash up)
    Nara shinkuro sasete (Mash up)
[03:24] ---
    With you, I feel confident (Right now)
    Kimi to nara dekisou sa (Right now)
[03:26] ---
    Ready set go!!
[03:27] ---
    From the minute I felt you in my heart
    Hitori janai tte omoeta toki kara
[03:32] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[03:35] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[03:40] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[03:43] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[03:47] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[03:51] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai
[03:55] ---
    I will cover the powers that you lack
    Chikara wo kasanete
[03:58] ---
    Let's fly away
    Tobitatsu yo…
[03:59] ---
    Don't stand still (Don't stop)
    Tachidomaruna (Don’t stop)
[04:01] ---
    I'll be there for you (Don't cry)
    Soba ni iru kara (Don’t cry)
[04:03] ---
    You're not alone anymore
    Kimi wa mou hitori janai!
[04:05] ---
    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[04:10] ---
    I see! You've made it through round two.
[04:14] ---
    For now, congratulations, Reiji.
[04:19] ---
    It was easy.
[04:20] ---
    With Sei's Gunpla and me,
    we can beat any—
[04:24] ---
    Not so fast.
[04:25] ---
    What?
[04:26] ---
    Gunpla has a long history that
    you still know nothing about.
[04:32] ---
    If you lower your guard,
    somebody will trip you up.
[04:38] ---
    Are you're saying that's you?
[04:41] ---
    Keep on winning, Reiji.
[04:44] ---
    I look forward to seeing you
    at the World Tournament.
[04:52] ---
    The World Tournament...
[04:55] ---
    It seems that I've got
    yet another reason not to lose.
[05:00] ---
    Right, Sei?
[05:05] ---
    Episode 4
    Gunpla Idol Kirara ☆
[05:10] ---
    Sei.
[05:12] ---
    What is it, Mom?
[05:14] ---
    Would you find the Gunpla that
    this customer is looking for?
[05:18] ---
    I don't know them quite as well.
[05:23] ---
    Thank you.
[05:27] ---
    Ah, excuse me.
[05:29] ---
    What kind of Gunpla
    are you looking for?
[05:31] ---
    I'm looking for a GM kit.
    The Cold Districts Type from 0080.
[05:36] ---
    Oh, that. It's over here.
[05:40] ---
    Is this the one?
[05:42] ---
    Yes, this is it! Thank you!
[05:45] ---
    No problem.
    Are you familiar with Gunpla?
[05:48] ---
    I love the GMs from "War in the Pocket."
[05:52] ---
    The GM Command,
    GM Command Space Type, GM Sniper II...
[05:57] ---
    The Draken-E included with
    the GM Sniper II was cute, too.
[06:01] ---
    That's the Riah forces'
    middle mobile suit, right?
[06:03] ---
    Yeah, that's it!
[06:13] ---
    You have questions about
    the Gunpla you bought the other day?
[06:18] ---
    Would you like to build it here?
[06:37] ---
    You're the one I met in
    the place called "school."
[06:41] ---
    Did you come to see Sei?
[06:46] ---
    Who's that girl?
[06:49] ---
    Hey, didn't you come to see Sei?
[06:53] ---
    What's with her?
[06:58] ---
    Hey, Sei.
[06:59] ---
    What?
[07:00] ---
    That chick in the store,
    is she your girlfriend?
[07:04] ---
    No, it's not like that.
    She's just a customer.
[07:07] ---
    You seemed to be
    hitting it off with her.
[07:10] ---
    We were talking about Gundam.
[07:13] ---
    I see. How boring.
[07:15] ---
    I've never met a girl who
    knows so much about Gundam.
[07:20] ---
    What? You're participating in the
    Gunpla Battle Championship, Sei?
[07:25] ---
    For now. I'm past round two, but...
[07:29] ---
    Wow, amazing!
[07:31] ---
    Oh, stop.
[07:33] ---
    When's the third round?
    I'll go cheer for you.
[07:36] ---
    There's no need.
    It would be embarrassing if I lost.
[07:41] ---
    I can tell from looking at your display.
[07:44] ---
    There's no doubt
    that your Gunpla are strong.
[07:48] ---
    You think?
[08:01] ---
    Good morning, Class Rep.
[08:03] ---
    Morning.
[08:05] ---
    Did you build the Gunpla
    you bought the other day?
[08:08] ---
    If have any questions, please ask me.
[08:12] ---
    Wh... What is it?
[08:14] ---
    Uh...
[08:16] ---
    No, it's nothing.
[08:19] ---
    O-Okay.
[08:21] ---
    Watercolor
    Techniques
[08:29] ---
    Huh? The girl I was talking with
    at the store yesterday?
[08:34] ---
    She was just a customer.
[08:35] ---
    We were just talking about Gunpla.
[08:38] ---
    Why do you ask?
[09:00] ---
    Iori.
[09:05] ---
    What's wrong, Kousaka?
[09:07] ---
    You dropped your bag.
[09:13] ---
    That girl...
[09:15] ---
    Do you know her?
[09:16] ---
    I think I've seen her before
    at a Gunpla Battle venue.
[09:20] ---
    But...
[09:21] ---
    I could be mistaken.
[09:27] ---
    Miss Mihoshi, why did you
    come to see me?
[09:31] ---
    Do I need a reason to come see you?
[09:35] ---
    No, it's not like that.
[09:37] ---
    But how did you know that
    I go to Seiho Academy?
[09:41] ---
    Oh, that was...
[09:43] ---
    ...feminine intuition!
[09:47] ---
    You're like a Newtype.
[09:49] ---
    Oh, yeah. Would you like some tea?
[09:51] ---
    Thank you. I'll have some.
[09:59] ---
    Um, so...
[10:01] ---
    You see, I was wondering
[10:02] ---
    if I could see the Gunpla you
    made for the championship.
[10:07] ---
    Sure, I have it with me right now.
[10:10] ---
    Here.
[10:11] ---
    It's as cool as I expected!
[10:13] ---
    Can I touch it?
[10:15] ---
    Sure.
[10:17] ---
    Wow. It's based on the Strike.
[10:20] ---
    You really know it well.
[10:23] ---
    Impressive. Its rifle and shield
    are completely original...
[10:27] ---
    It must've taken you days.
[10:29] ---
    Yeah, sort of.
[10:31] ---
    Is this backpack transformable?
[10:34] ---
    Yes. And don't tell anyone,
[10:36] ---
    but there's a gimmick to this backpack.
[10:40] ---
    Really? What is it?
[10:43] ---
    Well...
[10:47] ---
    Excuse me. I need to use the bathroom.
[10:51] ---
    Yeah, I'll wait here.
[10:53] ---
    Okay.
[11:10] ---
    Excuse me.
[11:12] ---
    That's Iori's Gunpla...
[11:14] ---
    Yeah, I asked him to show it to me.
[11:19] ---
    Who are you, anyway?
[11:22] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[11:26] ---
    Huh? Class Rep?
[11:28] ---
    Why are you here?
[11:32] ---
    I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong idea.
[11:37] ---
    Sei was just showing me his Gunpla.
[11:40] ---
    So don't worry.
[11:42] ---
    Thank you, Sei.
[11:44] ---
    I'll see you at the store again.
[11:47] ---
    Oh, yes. Thank you.
[11:52] ---
    Um, Class Rep?
[12:01] ---
    I see.
[12:05] ---
    So this is youth.
[12:21] ---
    Are you leaving, miss?
[12:23] ---
    It's that weird old guy.
[12:25] ---
    You must be here because
    you're interested in Gunpla Battle.
[12:29] ---
    Let's go.
[12:30] ---
    Um...
[12:31] ---
    Where we're going,
    you'll see ultimate battles.
[12:34] ---
    Besides, you can get in for free.
[12:36] ---
    It's not that...
[12:59] ---
    In the third round of the
    regional qualifying tournament,
[13:02] ---
    the winner of match one
    is Tatsuya Yuuki.
[13:05] ---
    His Zaku's been tuned up even more.
[13:08] ---
    He's really something.
[13:10] ---
    His Gunpla was already so perfect.
[13:13] ---
    Ours is still stronger.
    We'll prove it in this tournament!
[13:18] ---
    I'm looking forward to it, as well.
[13:21] ---
    But before that, you should
    concentrate on round three.
[13:25] ---
    Your next opponent has won
    the first two rounds by default.
[13:30] ---
    Keep your guard up.
[13:32] ---
    By default?
[13:33] ---
    You've got a problem with—
[13:34] ---
    We shall now begin match seven.
[13:38] ---
    It's our turn. Let's go, Sei!
[13:39] ---
    Oh, yeah.
[13:47] ---
    Their battle is just about to begin.
[13:51] ---
    Iori.
[13:54] ---
    One, two...
[13:56] ---
    Kirara!
    Kirara!
[14:09] ---
    Open the box, just can't wait...
[14:12] ---
    Gunpla The World!
[14:15] ---
    Build it, build it, it's so exciting!
[14:17] ---
    Build Gunpla World!
[14:23] ---
    Hi. I'm your idol, Kirara!
[14:28] ---
    Kiraran.
[14:29] ---
    Kiraran!
    Kiraran!
[14:32] ---
    What the heck is that?
[14:33] ---
    Don't ask me.
    What the heck is that?
[14:33] ---
    Don't ask me.
[14:35] ---
    That girl...
[14:37] ---
    Kirara!
[14:38] ---
    He's a fan?!
[14:42] ---
    I see, she's...
[14:45] ---
    Be careful, Iori.
[14:49] ---
    Hello, I'm Kirara.
[14:51] ---
    Don't be too hard on me.
[14:53] ---
    Let's finish this quick.
[14:55] ---
    Don't get distracted, okay?
[15:00] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[15:09] ---
    Field 5, City.
[15:13] ---
    Please set your Gunpla.
[15:20] ---
    Battle start.
[15:23] ---
    Build Strike Gundam.
[15:25] ---
    Let's go!
[15:28] ---
    Kirara, here I go!
[15:34] ---
    The Gerbera Tetra!
[15:36] ---
    It was originally going to be
    the prototype Gundam Unit 4.
[15:40] ---
    You're a smart guy.
[15:41] ---
    So what?!
[15:50] ---
    So fast!
[15:52] ---
    Big deal!
[15:57] ---
    What?!
[15:58] ---
    Why?
    What?!
[16:14] ---
    What's going on?!
[16:15] ---
    Sei!
[16:16] ---
    How is this possible...?
[16:23] ---
    The joint parts are scratched.
[16:26] ---
    How'd that happen?
[16:28] ---
    I haven't allowed anyone to
    touch the Build Strike.
[16:33] ---
    No... It can't be...
[16:36] ---
    Yes, you're right. Kiraran.
[16:40] ---
    Are you Miss Mihoshi?!
[16:43] ---
    As I thought...
[16:45] ---
    Miss Mihoshi...
[16:47] ---
    She came to me knowing that
    I was her next opponent?
[16:50] ---
    And she scratched my Gunpla on purpose...
[16:55] ---
    A battle begins long before
    you enter the battlefield.
[16:59] ---
    Go, Gerbera Tetra!
[17:10] ---
    Darn you!
[17:12] ---
    Miss Mihoshi, are you happy
    winning battles like this?
[17:15] ---
    Doing something so dirty to win
    just brings shame to your Gunpla!
[17:20] ---
    You're sweet, Sei.
[17:22] ---
    But I'm not interested
    in Gundam or Gunpla.
[17:25] ---
    My agency decided to promote me
    as an Akihabara-style Gunpla idol.
[17:30] ---
    So I studied intensively.
[17:33] ---
    I watched over 20 anime series
    that I don't understand well.
[17:36] ---
    I memorized names
    like Zaku and Gouf.
[17:39] ---
    And I mastered plastic model
    construction and techniques.
[17:43] ---
    Sometimes, I wondered
    if I was an idol or a modeler.
[17:51] ---
    But I kept working hard...
[17:54] ---
    To make my dream come true!
[17:58] ---
    Yes, to become a top idol!
[18:02] ---
    That's not true! If you
    didn't really like Gunpla,
[18:06] ---
    you couldn't have built
    such a strong Gerbera Tetra!
[18:09] ---
    Who said I built it myself?
[18:12] ---
    Huh?
[18:15] ---
    I had my fans build it
    in exchange for two-shot photos.
[18:21] ---
    I'll do whatever it takes
    to win this battle.
[18:24] ---
    If I win, I'll get media exposure.
[18:27] ---
    The more they cover me,
    the more famous I'll become.
[18:30] ---
    I'll be able to debut as a singer,
    and release my first album.
[18:33] ---
    There's a shining stage...
[18:36] ---
    ...waiting for me in the big arena!
[18:42] ---
    The shield!
[18:43] ---
    I'm sorry, Sei.
[18:44] ---
    I'll make it up by
    sending you arena tickets!
[18:51] ---
    Oh no!
[18:51] ---
    Iori!
[18:53] ---
    Sei!
[18:56] ---
    Reiji, the twelfth slot.
[19:05] ---
    What?!
[19:09] ---
    The backpack transformed!
[19:11] ---
    It's a fighter... No, a booster?
[19:15] ---
    What the heck is that?
[19:18] ---
    There's a gimmick to this backpack.
[19:21] ---
    That's what he was talking about?!
[19:28] ---
    Your name's Kirara, right?
[19:30] ---
    I don't hate people who
    challenge the impossible.
[19:35] ---
    I like daring people like you.
[19:38] ---
    But...
[19:40] ---
    We also have reasons
    why we can't lose!
[19:55] ---
    Battle ended.
[19:58] ---
    No way. My dream...
[20:01] ---
    Kirara's dream...
[20:13] ---
    Sei, don't let it get you down.
[20:17] ---
    Now I can't chat with her
    about Gundam anymore.
[20:21] ---
    What? I thought you had a thing for her.
[20:25] ---
    No way. I told you,
    she's just a customer.
[20:30] ---
    I know! If I teach her
    the joys of Gunpla,
[20:33] ---
    I bet she'll come to love it!
[20:37] ---
    All that effort for nothing!
[20:39] ---
    Let's try again together!
[20:41] ---
    I'll build you a stronger Gunpla!
[20:43] ---
    I can't wait another year!
[20:49] ---
    Fat chance.
[20:52] ---
    Congratulations, Sei and Reiji.
[20:54] ---
    Thank you, Mr. Ral.
[20:56] ---
    It was rough going, though.
[20:58] ---
    A warrior grows by facing
    hardship and overcoming it.
[21:07] ---
    Iori.
[21:08] ---
    Class Rep, you came to cheer for me?
[21:11] ---
    Congratulations, Iori and Reiji.
[21:13] ---
    Thank you.
[21:14] ---
    Thanks, Class Rep.
[21:18] ---
    And...
[21:20] ---
    What is it?
[21:21] ---
    I'm not sure how to build
    the Gunpla I bought from you.
[21:25] ---
    Will you teach me sometime?
[21:28] ---
    Of course.
[21:30] ---
    You wanna come to my store right now?
[21:35] ---
    Yeah, let's go.
[21:47] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[21:50] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[21:53] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[21:55] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[22:09] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[22:15] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[22:20] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[22:26] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[22:30] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[22:35] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[22:38] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[22:43] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[22:46] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[22:49] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[22:52] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[22:54] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni
[22:57] ---
    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[23:00] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[23:03] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[23:05] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,
    Mugen no chikara wo shinjitai kara
[23:10] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[23:13] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[23:24] ---
    Well done, Iori.
[23:26] ---
    You've easily surpassed
    what I anticipated.
[23:28] ---
    I can't afford to slack off.
[23:30] ---
    Tatsuya.
[23:33] ---
    Allan! Why are you here?
[23:36] ---
    Tatsuya, listen to me carefully.
[23:39] ---
    The Meijin has fallen ill.
[23:41] ---
    The Meijin?!
[23:43] ---
    That's why I'm here.
[23:47] ---
    To bring you with me,
[23:49] ---
    and to make you leave
    the name "Yuuki" behind.
[23:54] ---
    Next Episode
[23:55] ---
    Just looking at it, I understand
    that his Gunpla is something else.

    You're too young to be a backpacker.
[00:04] ---
    Don't you have school, kid?
[00:07] ---
    Don't worry, I have permission.
[00:10] ---
    Now, let me show
    my gratitude for the ride.
[00:15] ---
    Until we get to Tokyo,
[00:18] ---
    please look forward to it!
[00:23] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[00:25] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[00:28] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[00:31] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide

    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[00:54] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[00:58] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me
    Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku

    With you, I feel confident (Right now)

[01:09] ---
    From the minute I felt you in my heart
    Hitori janai tte omoeta toki kara
[01:14] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[01:17] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[01:22] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[01:24] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[01:29] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[01:33] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai
[01:37] ---
    I will cover the powers that you lack

[01:45] ---
    You're not alone anymore
    Kimi wa mou hitori janai!
[01:47] ---
    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[01:56] ---
    This is an HG Gouf, Mr. Ral!
[01:58] ---
    That's right, Sei.
[02:00] ---
    The painting is great!
[02:01] ---
    The color scheme is perfect,
    and it's weathered for the desert.
[02:05] ---
    The heat rod can also move
    thanks to this lead wire.
[02:08] ---
    Very cool!
[02:12] ---
    This is no Best Mecha Collection, boy!
    No Best Mecha Collection!
[02:16] ---
    This Gunpla's good enough
    for the toughest training!
[02:19] ---
    Fight with us, Mr. Ral!
[02:22] ---
    No thanks.
[02:25] ---
    Reiji, people don't just
    build Gunpla for battles.
[02:30] ---
    Some, like my HG Gouf, are built
    in order to cherish the anime world...
[02:34] ---
    ...and faithfully replicate it.
[02:38] ---
    Others are used to reproduce
    anime scenes in diorama form,
[02:42] ---
    or to build the mobile suit's details
    according to your own interpretation.
[02:48] ---
    Yes, there are many ways
    to enjoy Gunpla.
[02:53] ---
    Is it fun just building it
    and looking at it?
[02:55] ---
    Sure!
[02:57] ---
    With Gunpla,
[02:59] ---
    we can expand our imagination
    of the Gundam world.
[03:04] ---
    Oh, is that so?
[03:06] ---
    Anyway, your HG Gouf is really good!
[03:10] ---
    I still have plenty to learn.
[03:13] ---
    I heard a rumor that there's
    an amazing builder in the Kansai region.
[03:18] ---
    He's about the same age as you.
[03:22] ---
    Thanks, old man!
[03:24] ---
    Your kids will definitely
    be excited to see that!
[03:29] ---
    This Gunpla is really amazing...
[03:34] ---
    Let's see...
[03:35] ---
    Where could you be, Sei Iori?
[03:39] ---
    Episode 5
    The Strongest Builder
[03:44] ---
    "Kansai, boy, builder..."
[03:49] ---
    There are so many.
[03:52] ---
    I wonder which ones were made
    by the boy Mr. Ral was talking about?
[03:57] ---
    Sei, our Gunpla got damaged
    in the last battle.
[04:00] ---
    Don't you need to repair it?
[04:02] ---
    Don't worry.
[04:03] ---
    I'll have it fixed by
    the quarterfinals this weekend.
[04:07] ---
    Actually, I want to add something
    to the Build Strike while I'm at it.
[04:12] ---
    Because if we win at the quarterfinals,
[04:15] ---
    our next opponent will be Yuuki.
[04:19] ---
    I see.
[04:21] ---
    We'll finally be able to face him.
[04:24] ---
    That Tatsuya Yuuki.
[04:27] ---
    I'll pay him back for
    the humiliation he caused us.
[04:31] ---
    On my family's honor.
[04:34] ---
    Let's win, Sei!
[04:36] ---
    Reiji, to be honest, I'm a bit worried.
[04:41] ---
    You saw it in the third round, right?
[04:44] ---
    Yuuki's Zaku had been tuned up.
[04:49] ---
    When we fight with him,
    he'll have upgraded it even more.
[04:54] ---
    I wonder if just fixing
    the Build Strike is enough.
[05:00] ---
    C'mon! Don't be a 'fraidy cat!
[05:03] ---
    I'll do everything I can, of course.
[05:07] ---
    But I still feel like there's
    something missing.
[05:11] ---
    If I look at the Gunpla made by
    the boy Mr. Ral talked about,
[05:14] ---
    I might be able to get some hints.
[05:17] ---
    Sei, believe in yourself
    and your Gunpla!
[05:22] ---
    You're too confident, Reiji.
[05:24] ---
    How can you be so sure of yourself?
[05:27] ---
    Thinking about losing is pointless.
[05:31] ---
    I'm going out. Fix that Gunpla, will you?
[05:43] ---
    Thank you for waiting.
[05:46] ---
    Here is your Gunpla.
[05:47] ---
    Huh?
[05:49] ---
    It's from that gentleman.
[05:58] ---
    Did you send me this Gunpla?
[06:01] ---
    It's the Victory Gundam.
[06:02] ---
    It has a sophisticated design
    and a streamlined form.
[06:06] ---
    This Gunpla is well suited
    to a beauty like you.
[06:10] ---
    Please take it.
[06:12] ---
    Oh, I could never.
[06:14] ---
    I can't accept such a beautiful piece.
[06:17] ---
    Then I'll take it!
[06:20] ---
    R-Reiji?!
[06:22] ---
    You brat, I spent three days
    building that Gunpla to rope in girls!
[06:26] ---
    Anyway, why are you here?
[06:28] ---
    I only came here to battle with you.
[06:32] ---
    There's a guy I'd do anything to defeat.
[06:35] ---
    Help me.
[06:36] ---
    Is this really the time and place?!
[06:39] ---
    Wait, Señorita? Where's the Señorita?
[06:42] ---
    Given the atmosphere, she left.
[06:44] ---
    Oh dio mio!
[06:46] ---
    So let's go!
[06:47] ---
    No...
[06:49] ---
    What a disaster!
[07:00] ---
    Rage on...
[07:02] ---
    Rage on...
[07:04] ---
    Rage on!
[07:05] ---
    Gunpla!
[07:11] ---
    There's no point in thinking ahead.
[07:14] ---
    To win the next match,
[07:16] ---
    I have to get this machine
    into top condition.
[07:21] ---
    I finally made it here.
[07:23] ---
    Why am I so bad with directions?
[07:27] ---
    I'm disgusted with myself.
[07:29] ---
    So where's Iori Models?
[07:34] ---
    Before that, I need to eat first.
[07:34] ---
    Keyaki Mall
[07:39] ---
    Iori.
[07:40] ---
    Thanks for teaching me how to
    build models the other day.
[07:44] ---
    Did you finish yours?
[07:46] ---
    No, I'm only halfway done.
[07:49] ---
    I see.
[07:54] ---
    Say, are you worried about something?
[07:57] ---
    Yeah, just a little.
[08:01] ---
    Would you like to come over
    to my restaurant?
[08:04] ---
    Have some of my dad's sherbet.
    You'll feel refreshed.
[08:07] ---
    Oh, I don't want to impose.
[08:09] ---
    I want to thank you for the Gunpla.
[08:14] ---
    Oh, my...
[08:17] ---
    Dad?
[08:18] ---
    Oh, China.
[08:20] ---
    What's going on?
[08:21] ---
    Well, this customer wants to pay
    for the rest of his bill with a toy.
[08:27] ---
    What?
[08:28] ---
    It's not a toy, it's a Gunpla.
[08:30] ---
    Please take a look.
[08:32] ---
    It's well made, right?
[08:34] ---
    That's not really the point...
[08:36] ---
    That's...!
[08:40] ---
    It's the Extreme Gundam.
    Finished to perfection...
[08:44] ---
    Did you build this Gunpla?
[08:47] ---
    Don't look at it so close.
[08:49] ---
    I'm ashamed because
    I built it here quickly.
[08:52] ---
    It's far from perfect.
[08:55] ---
    You built this Gunpla here?
[08:57] ---
    So don't stare at it too much.
[09:00] ---
    How did you do this part?
[09:07] ---
    Thank you for helping me out
    with the manager.
[09:12] ---
    I didn't do anything.
    You should thank the Class Rep.
[09:15] ---
    Thank you. You saved me.
[09:18] ---
    No, it's fine.
[09:20] ---
    I'll display that Gunpla with care.
[09:22] ---
    It isn't worth that much.
[09:26] ---
    I'm jealous that you have
    such a cute girlfriend.
[09:32] ---
    What a nice person.
[09:34] ---
    You know, it sounds like
    you're not from Tokyo.
[09:39] ---
    What did you come here for?
[09:41] ---
    There's a place I want to go.
[09:43] ---
    It's a plastic model store
    called Iori Models.
[09:46] ---
    My place?
[09:47] ---
    Huh? Did you say "my place?"
[09:49] ---
    My family owns Iori Models.
[09:54] ---
    Does that mean you're Sei Iori?
[09:58] ---
    Yeah, I am.
[10:00] ---
    I see. So it's you.
[10:05] ---
    I've finally met you, Sei Iori!
[10:07] ---
    My lifelong rival!
[10:11] ---
    My name is Mao Yasaka.
[10:12] ---
    I won the Japanese 5th Block
    of the Gunpla Battle Championship,
[10:16] ---
    and I want to become the best
    Gunpla builder in the world!
[10:20] ---
    Sei Iori, I've got hold
    of you at long last—
[10:24] ---
    Hey, wait! Where are you going?!
[10:27] ---
    There's no time left because
    I have to look after the store...
[10:31] ---
    Same here.
[10:32] ---
    Okay, I'll be brief.
[10:34] ---
    My name is Mao Yasaka.
[10:36] ---
    I won the Japanese 5th Block
    of the Gunpla Battle Championship,
[10:38] ---
    and I want to become the best
    Gunpla builder in the world!
[10:42] ---
    Do you think I attract weird people?
[10:46] ---
    Yeah, I think so.
[11:28] ---
    Are you satisfied? Let's—
[11:31] ---
    No, not yet!
[11:35] ---
    I'm not finished just yet.
[11:39] ---
    If you want to stop,
    then it's a win for me!
[11:42] ---
    You're so stubborn.
[11:44] ---
    Sorry, I'm persistent.
[11:50] ---
    Yeah, you sure are!
[11:54] ---
    That's one of my strengths!
[12:00] ---
    Iori Models
[12:02] ---
    Wow.
[12:04] ---
    It cleanses my soul
    to see well-built Gunpla.
[12:08] ---
    Hey, China.
[12:10] ---
    Is that boy Sei's friend?
[12:12] ---
    I'm not sure.
[12:13] ---
    I see.
[12:15] ---
    They're about to become friends.
[12:18] ---
    Did you build all these Gunpla here?
[12:22] ---
    Well, yeah.
[12:24] ---
    I see. It's just as my master said.
[12:28] ---
    What is?
[12:30] ---
    You see, I've loved Gunpla
    ever since I was little.
[12:33] ---
    To be honest, I thought
    I was pretty special.
[12:37] ---
    But my master...
[12:42] ---
    Gunpla Shingyo School
[12:48] ---
    It's a good piece.
[12:50] ---
    I could tell that at a glance.
[12:53] ---
    You've improved your skills, Mao.
[12:56] ---
    Thank you very much, Master!
[12:58] ---
    Do you finally recognize me as the
    heir to the Gunpla Shingyo school?
[13:02] ---
    Fool!
[13:04] ---
    You're too complacent, Mao!
[13:06] ---
    You think it's easy as bean-jam pie?!
[13:09] ---
    Heir to the Shingyo school, you say?
[13:11] ---
    Don't be full of yourself!
[13:14] ---
    Master!
[13:17] ---
    Mao, the world is huge.
[13:20] ---
    Even I, who have mastered the Gunpla
    Shingyo school, once feared a man.
[13:25] ---
    R-Really?
[13:27] ---
    The man's name was Takeshi Iori.
[13:31] ---
    He's the owner of Iori Models,
    a plastic model shop in Tokyo.
[13:35] ---
    Takeshi Iori...
[13:38] ---
    And he has a son named Sei.
[13:42] ---
    I heard a rumor that
    he's as talented as you.
[13:46] ---
    First, go see that boy.
[13:49] ---
    Go and learn how big the world is!
[13:53] ---
    That's why I came
    all the way from Kyoto.
[13:57] ---
    I wonder what my dad did?
[14:00] ---
    Wow, he was respected
    by such a great man?
[14:03] ---
    I'm so proud of my husband!
[14:06] ---
    Is this where you get excited?
[14:07] ---
    Sei, show him the talent
    you inherited from your dad!
[14:12] ---
    Stop it, Mom.
[14:14] ---
    There's no need for that.
[14:17] ---
    Looking at the Gunpla here,
    to be honest, I was disappointed.
[14:21] ---
    What do you mean?
[14:22] ---
    I mean exactly what I just said.
[14:25] ---
    The most important thing in the
    building process is imagination.
[14:29] ---
    All the Gunpla here lack it.
[14:32] ---
    You just built the products nicely.
[14:36] ---
    That's because they're just samples.
[14:39] ---
    Then, can I see your real work?
[14:43] ---
    I also have one that reflects
    the results of all my training.
[14:47] ---
    Will you two play Gunpla Battle?
[14:49] ---
    There's no need to.
[14:51] ---
    A true builder can tell which model
    is better with one glance.
[14:56] ---
    Right, Sei?
[14:59] ---
    Okay, I'll go get it.
[15:02] ---
    I commend you for not running
    away from a competition.
[15:16] ---
    Let's show them at the same time.
[15:19] ---
    Alright.
[15:23] ---
    This is my...
[15:25] ---
    And this is my...
[15:27] ---
    Build Strike!
[15:29] ---
    Gundam X Maoh!
[15:31] ---
    Th-This is...!
[15:35] ---
    This Gunpla is...!
[15:40] ---
    Strong!
    Strong!
[15:54] ---
    That machine is...
[15:55] ---
    ...an assault type
    based on the Gundam X.
[16:02] ---
    You sure know your stuff!
[16:05] ---
    Yours is based on the Strike.
[16:11] ---
    It has a variable-output
    rifle and a chobham shield.
[16:15] ---
    That backpack can detach
    and transform, right?
[16:20] ---
    He sees right through it. But...!
[16:32] ---
    The power isn't bad either.
[16:38] ---
    The plastic is reinforced, too.
[16:41] ---
    Amazing. Mao's...
[16:44] ---
    This Gunpla is amazing!
[16:50] ---
    Why aren't they moving?
[16:53] ---
    I think they're battling.
[16:56] ---
    Their imaginations are
    making their Gunpla move.
[17:02] ---
    Don't create distance!
[17:04] ---
    If I do, he'll use that
    reinforced satellite cannon!
[17:07] ---
    I can tell what you're thinking!
[17:16] ---
    Did he compress the Plavsky
    particles and release them?
[17:19] ---
    Unbelievable!
[17:21] ---
    That's right. Everyone can do that
    in the Gunpla Shingyo school.
[17:25] ---
    And now, I'll show you my
    Gundam X Maoh's true worth!
[17:30] ---
    Th-The moon is...
[17:34] ---
    The moon is out!
[17:41] ---
    It receives super microwaves from
    a power generation system on the moon,
[17:46] ---
    and converts them into energy.
[17:48] ---
    This is the ultimate secret
    of the Gunpla Shingyo school!
[17:53] ---
    Hyper satellite cannon!
[18:22] ---
    How do you like my Gunpla, Sei?
[18:32] ---
    Wh-What?!
[18:34] ---
    How did you dodge it?!
[18:37] ---
    I'm impressed, Mao.
[18:39] ---
    You're superior as a builder.
[18:42] ---
    I admit it.
[18:44] ---
    I couldn't have dodged that attack
    if it had been against me.
[18:47] ---
    But the regular pilot of
    this Build Strike isn't me.
[18:52] ---
    It's Reiji!
[18:57] ---
    Reiji could dodge it
    and keep fighting!
[19:02] ---
    That's enough!
[19:06] ---
    Let me put this match on hold.
[19:09] ---
    This battle is too good to let it
    finish in your imaginations.
[19:15] ---
    You won't settle this in your heads,
    but on a shining stage...
[19:21] ---
    Yes, at the World Tournament!
[19:25] ---
    The World Tournament...
[19:28] ---
    I don't know who you are,
    but what you said is admirable.
[19:33] ---
    Sei, let's put this on hold.
[19:36] ---
    Mao?
[19:37] ---
    Don't get the wrong idea.
[19:39] ---
    I'm sure I'm better at a
    Gunpla building battle.
[19:44] ---
    But if you're saying
    your Gunpla's regular pilot...
[19:48] ---
    ...would be able to
    top my imagination,
[19:52] ---
    then I definitely want to face him!
[19:55] ---
    I think you'll be surprised.
[20:00] ---
    I have a good story to tell my master.
[20:04] ---
    I'll see you at the World Tournament!
[20:09] ---
    See? Just as I told you.
[20:12] ---
    They became friends.
[20:14] ---
    That's right.
[20:19] ---
    Mao Yasaka.
[20:23] ---
    In this country, no, in the world,
[20:26] ---
    there are many amazing
    builders like him.
[20:30] ---
    I want to meet more of them.
[20:32] ---
    I want to see their Gunpla.
[20:36] ---
    And I want to battle with them!
[20:39] ---
    With my Gunpla!
[20:53] ---
    Reiji!
[20:54] ---
    Alright!
[21:10] ---
    Battle ended.
[21:12] ---
    Iori and Reiji won!
[21:15] ---
    Since he met with Mao Yasaka,
[21:17] ---
    his Build Strike has
    become even more perfect.
[21:21] ---
    You did some really great work, Sei!
[21:24] ---
    Yeah. With this,
    even if he's our opponent...
[21:27] ---
    Just wait, Tatsuya Yuuki.
[21:30] ---
    Our Build Strike is up next!
[21:34] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[21:37] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo

    Yume wo mitakutte
[21:42] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[21:56] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[22:02] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[22:07] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[22:13] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[22:17] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[22:22] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[22:25] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[22:30] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab

[22:34] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[22:36] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[22:39] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[22:41] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni
[22:44] ---
    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[22:47] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[22:50] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[22:52] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,

[22:57] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[23:00] ---
    Forever and always

[23:04] ---
    We will now begin match four
    of the quarterfinals.
[23:14] ---

[23:15] ---
    I don't know.

[00:46] ---
    What do you mean?
[00:50] ---
    The president has...
[00:52] ---
    He's taken an indefinite
    leave from school.
[00:58] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[01:00] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[01:03] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[01:06] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide
[01:11] ---
    And create a bright rainbow up in the sky
    Kono sora ni azayaka na niji wo kakeyou
[01:19] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
[01:22] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of
    Kore to itte torie mo nai
[01:25] ---
    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[01:29] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[01:33] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me
    Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku
[01:37] ---
    When I'm alone inside (Flash back)
    Kokoro no naka de hitori ni naru to (Flash back)
[01:39] ---
    I synchronize with you (Mash up)
    Nara shinkuro sasete (Mash up)
[01:41] ---
    With you, I feel confident (Right now)
    Kimi to nara dekisou sa (Right now)
[01:43] ---
    Ready set go!!
[01:44] ---
    From the minute I felt you in my heart
    Hitori janai tte omoeta toki kara
[01:49] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[01:52] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[01:57] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[01:59] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[02:04] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[02:08] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai
[02:12] ---
    I will cover the powers that you lack
    Chikara wo kasanete
[02:15] ---
    Let's fly away
    Tobitatsu yo…
[02:16] ---
    Don't stand still (Don't stop)
    Tachidomaruna (Don’t stop)
[02:18] ---
    I'll be there for you (Don't cry)
    Soba ni iru kara (Don’t cry)
[02:20] ---
    You're not alone anymore
    Kimi wa mou hitori janai!
[02:22] ---
    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[02:29] ---
    Okay, okay.
[02:31] ---
    So, Tatsuya Yuuki quit Gunpla Battle,
[02:34] ---
    and then he quit that "school" thing.
[02:37] ---
    I asked why he left school,
    but nobody knows.
[02:41] ---
    Even the teachers just heard
    it was for personal reasons.
[02:44] ---
    He turned tail and ran.
[02:46] ---
    He was afraid to face our Gunpla.
[02:49] ---
    I can't believe I wanted to
    fight such a loser.
[02:53] ---
    I feel stupid.
[02:54] ---
    Stop it, Reiji.
[02:56] ---
    Well, but...
[02:57] ---
    Thanks to that, we're a step closer
    to winning the tournament, right?
[03:02] ---
    Reiji!
[03:04] ---
    Yuuki isn't like that.
[03:07] ---
    He chickened out!
[03:10] ---
    He gave up honor and pride
    and ran away from us!
[03:20] ---
    Sei.
[03:21] ---
    Don't ever talk about him again.
[03:25] ---
    Our next game is the semifinals.
[03:27] ---
    Let's win it, Sei.
[03:28] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[03:35] ---
    Episode 6
    A Reason to Battle
[03:42] ---
    We will now begin match one
    of the semifinals...
[03:45] ---
    ...in the regional qualifying tournament.
[03:49] ---
    Winning that game by default
    must've brought me luck.
[04:01] ---
    I've enhanced my Gyan Gya Gyan's
    weapons even more.
[04:05] ---
    With these, I'll get my ticket
    to enter the World Tournament!
[04:17] ---
    Up ahead!
[04:28] ---
    Reiji!
[04:29] ---
    How could you...!
[04:40] ---
    Gotcha!
[04:43] ---
    Someone like you...
[04:48] ---
    ...against someone like me...
[04:51] ---
    ...is not a worthy opponent!
[04:54] ---
    Gyan Gya Gyan!
[04:57] ---
    Battle ended.
[05:03] ---
    D-Darn it!
[05:07] ---
    Next time, my Gyan will...!
[05:11] ---
    My bad, Sei.
[05:12] ---
    I thought it'd be an easy win...
[05:16] ---
    ...so I let my guard down.
[05:18] ---
    Reiji.
[05:19] ---
    In this last battle, you seemed...
[05:21] ---
    I'm starving all of a sudden!
[05:23] ---
    Sorry, but I'm going home.
[05:28] ---
    It's good that they were able
    to advance to the final round,
[05:32] ---
    but Reiji's maneuvering seemed to be off.
[05:36] ---
    At this rate, I'm not sure
    if they'll win the upcoming final.
[05:39] ---
    Maybe he's still bothered
    that President Yuuki withdrew.
[05:45] ---
    Even so, he must get past it.
[05:48] ---
    I'm certain Reiji knows it, too...
[05:52] ---
    That someone who has
    no reason to battle cannot win.
[06:24] ---
    Trial battle ended.
[06:30] ---
    Your time was 30 seconds.
[06:32] ---
    Your accuracy was 98 percent.
[06:35] ---
    You have the best scores of all
    the fighter cadets here, Tatsuya.
[06:42] ---
    And you did it with your own Gunpla,
    not a PPSE works model.
[06:49] ---
    They'll have to choose you
    at tomorrow's ceremony,
[06:52] ---
    and you'll inherit the name
    as the third generation.
[06:59] ---
    Where are you going?
[07:02] ---
    Don't worry.
[07:04] ---
    I'll be back by tomorrow's ceremony.
[07:08] ---
    Do as you wish.
[07:11] ---
    No matter how you might act,
    this fate was one you wanted, too.
[07:34] ---
    If we'd fought against
    Yuuki's Zaku in the semifinals,
[07:41] ---
    then probably...
[07:43] ---
    No matter what he said,
    I'm sure Reiji felt the same way.
[07:48] ---
    But neither of us thought
    we'd run away from the battle.
[07:53] ---
    So then, why did Yuuki...?
[07:59] ---
    I want you to perfect it
    before the championship.
[08:05] ---
    I want to fight against
    your truly completed Gunpla.
[08:09] ---
    And the championship is
    the perfect stage for that.
[08:14] ---
    Ours is still stronger.
    We'll prove it in this tournament!
[08:19] ---
    I'm looking forward to it, as well.
[08:29] ---
    I came all the way to this world.
[08:32] ---
    What on Earth am I doing?
[08:36] ---
    Iori Models
[08:37] ---
    Sei, Miss Kousaka is here to see you.
[08:39] ---
    Sei, Miss Kousaka is here to see you.
[08:42] ---
    Okay!
[08:45] ---
    I'm sorry for calling suddenly.
[08:48] ---
    There's no need to apologize.
[08:50] ---
    You want to use our compressor, right?
[08:52] ---
    Yeah.
[08:54] ---
    Do you know how?
[08:55] ---
    I know it from the art club.
[08:57] ---
    Okay, off we go.
[08:59] ---
    Yeah!
[09:08] ---
    You're pretty good, Class Rep.
[09:10] ---
    You think?
[09:12] ---
    Isn't Reiji here today?
[09:15] ---
    No.
[09:17] ---
    Actually, I haven't seen him
    since last week's semifinals.
[09:20] ---
    He must be still bothered
    about President Yuuki.
[09:24] ---
    Probably.
[09:25] ---
    He can't hide his feelings,
    so it's pretty obvious.
[09:28] ---
    Yeah.
[09:31] ---
    I was the one who asked Reiji
    to play Gunpla Battle.
[09:35] ---
    He seemed uninterested.
[09:38] ---
    But I wanted him to
    control my Build Strike so badly.
[09:45] ---
    There was one time when
    Reiji came late to the tournament.
[09:49] ---
    I thought, if he wasn't
    interested in Gunpla,
[09:52] ---
    it's only natural that
    he wouldn't show up.
[09:55] ---
    As much as that ticked me off.
[09:57] ---
    But he did come.
[10:00] ---
    Later I heard from Mr. Ral...
[10:02] ---
    ...that he was with Mr. Ral's friends,
    training hard for Gunpla Battle.
[10:05] ---
    I see.
[10:08] ---
    He went through all that because
    he wanted to fight Yuuki.
[10:12] ---
    Now that Yuuki's gone, I can
    understand him losing his motivation.
[10:16] ---
    Will he quit Gunpla Battle altogether?
[10:19] ---
    No, never.
[10:21] ---
    Maybe it's just something I want to believe,
[10:24] ---
    but I think for Reiji, Gunpla is...
[10:29] ---
    I'm envious.
[10:32] ---
    About what?
[10:35] ---
    By the way...
[10:38] ---
    What are you staring at, Mom!?
[10:41] ---
    Please don't mind me.
[10:43] ---
    That's impossible!
[10:45] ---
    Keyaki Mall
[10:55] ---
    Go, GN-X!
[10:58] ---
    Don't lose, Asshimar!
[11:03] ---
    Take this!
[11:09] ---
    Sweets Cafe
[11:09] ---
    Oh, Reiji.
[11:12] ---
    Are you looking for
    someone to battle with?
[11:12] ---
    Sweet Bean Buns
[11:12] ---
    Are you looking for
    someone to battle with?
[11:14] ---
    Sweet Bean Buns
[11:14] ---
    Sweet Bean Buns
[11:14] ---
    Nah. Who'd wanna fight such little kids?
[11:17] ---
    Nah. Who'd wanna fight such little kids?
[11:18] ---
    That's right.
[11:19] ---
    You only started playing
    Gunpla Battle two months ago,
[11:22] ---
    but you're now a finalist
    in the qualifying tournament.
[11:26] ---
    It's no exaggeration to say
    that your ability is world-level.
[11:29] ---
    Thanks.
[11:32] ---
    When you really look at it,
    don't you think it's silly?
[11:36] ---
    What is?
[11:37] ---
    Everybody is so serious
    about playing with toys.
[11:42] ---
    Don't you like it?
[11:44] ---
    I just don't get it.
[11:46] ---
    You can quit if you like.
[11:50] ---
    Building and battling Gunpla
    is merely a hobby.
[11:54] ---
    Unlike the Mobile Suit Gundam story,
    we're not in a state of war,
[11:58] ---
    so we don't have to
    put our lives on the line.
[12:01] ---
    The fights are merely a game.
    You're absolutely right.
[12:06] ---
    But despite... No, because of this,
[12:09] ---
    people put everything they have
    into their Gunpla, and into their battles.
[12:13] ---
    Because they like it,
    they can take it seriously.
[12:18] ---
    I can see seriousness in you.
[12:23] ---
    Yes, just like that guy over there.
[12:39] ---
    Iori Models
[12:43] ---
    Reiji! What's the hurry?
[12:45] ---
    Sei, lend me your Gunpla!
[12:48] ---
    What's wrong?
[12:50] ---
    Even though the final round is almost here, I might damage it.
[12:54] ---
    I might even break it.
[12:56] ---
    But please, let me borrow it.
[12:58] ---
    Please!
[13:00] ---
    I already told you.
[13:02] ---
    This Gunpla,
[13:04] ---
    the Build Strike, is made just for you.
[13:09] ---
    Sei.
[13:12] ---
    But I'm coming along.
[13:14] ---
    He's waiting, right?
[13:28] ---
    Reiji, why are we at school?
[13:33] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[13:35] ---
    President Yuuki, why?
[13:40] ---
    Please tell us why you bowed out.
[13:44] ---
    Why you left school...
[13:46] ---
    Nevermind his reasons.
[13:48] ---
    He's standing here now
    with his Gunpla in his hands.
[13:52] ---
    That's all we need.
[13:54] ---
    Yeah, we'll find out his reason
    through this battle.
[14:01] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[14:06] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[14:13] ---
    Field 1, Space.
[14:22] ---
    Please set your Gunpla.
[14:33] ---
    Battle start.
[14:34] ---
    Build Strike Gundam!
[14:36] ---
    Let's go!
[14:39] ---
    Zaku Amazing, Tatsuya Yuuki.
    Here I come!
[15:39] ---
    I sense it. I can sense...
[15:43] ---
    I sense their feelings.
[15:45] ---
    I thought you chickened out.
[15:47] ---
    Sorry.
[15:48] ---
    I had reasons I can't share.
[15:51] ---
    It doesn't matter.
[15:53] ---
    All I wanted to do is fight with you!
[15:58] ---
    Same here!
[16:06] ---
    Old man Ral told me,
[16:07] ---
    Gunpla is just played for pleasure.
[16:10] ---
    That's why people take it seriously!
[16:14] ---
    That's how it is for me.
[16:15] ---
    And now you, too.
[16:24] ---
    Reiji, I'll fix it no matter
    how many times it breaks!
[16:27] ---
    Go forward!
[16:34] ---
    I'll show you my seriousness!
[16:37] ---
    I'll respond to it
    with my raging spirit!
[16:50] ---
    Reiji. Yuuki.
[16:52] ---
    I can hardly sit still, Mr. Ral.
[16:55] ---
    Fellini.
[16:58] ---
    Seeing a battle like this
    gets me all fired up.
[17:12] ---
    It's not over yet!
[17:26] ---
    Tatsuya, I finally understand
    why you're so obsessed with them.
[17:31] ---
    Takeshi Iori's son, Sei Iori.
[17:35] ---
    And Reiji, a boy with control skills
    that are equal to yours.
[17:40] ---
    If you're a man, you would
    want to fight with them.
[17:44] ---
    If you're a fighter!
[18:24] ---
    Not just yet!
[18:30] ---
    Not yet.
[18:33] ---
    Yeah, not yet!
[18:46] ---
    This is our...!
[18:47] ---
    This is our...!
    This is our...!
[18:50] ---
    This is my...!
[18:52] ---
    Gunpla!
    Gunpla!
[19:07] ---
    You're amazing.
[19:10] ---
    And I was truly convinced.
[19:14] ---
    Tatsuya Yuuki,
[19:15] ---
    you're worthy of assuming the name
    as the third generation.
[19:19] ---
    I'm not thrilled with
    the victory at hand.
[19:23] ---
    What I'm aiming for...
    No, what we're aiming for is...
[19:27] ---
    ...much further away.
[19:34] ---
    I hope we'll meet again, Iori and Reiji.
[19:38] ---
    No, we'll definitely meet again.
    In the near future.
[19:42] ---
    Ah, we lost completely.
[19:44] ---
    So completely that there's
    no room for excuses.
[19:48] ---
    Yuuki was really great.
[19:52] ---
    But...
[19:53] ---
    We'll win next time.
[19:56] ---
    Yeah!
[19:58] ---
    Seeing the Gundam X Maoh that Mao built,
[20:01] ---
    and battling with Yuuki's Zaku Amazing,
[20:05] ---
    I'm filled with ideas.
[20:10] ---
    But after that battle,
    the Build Strike is...
[20:14] ---
    True, it'll be hard to fix it
    in time for the final round.
[20:19] ---
    But do you think I just sat by
    while you were gone?
[20:24] ---
    Sei, you mean...?
[20:28] ---
    We have more than one Gunpla!
[20:34] ---
    This is...
[20:36] ---
    The Build Gundam Mk-II.
[20:38] ---
    Model number RX-178B!
[20:41] ---
    It was developed by the Titans,
    an elite special unit...
[20:43] ---
    ...of the Earth Federation Forces
    created to hunt down Zeon remnants!
[20:48] ---
    In the anime setting,
[20:49] ---
    its armor and frame used
    older standard parts.
[20:52] ---
    But mine is different!
[20:53] ---
    Look here! I used the newest materials!
[20:57] ---
    I don't really get it, but...
[21:01] ---
    With this, we can fight!
[21:03] ---
    With the Gunpla you built!
[21:06] ---
    Yeah!
[21:08] ---
    Let's nail the final round!
[21:10] ---
    You know it!
[21:19] ---
    We will now begin the final round of
    the regional qualifying tournament.
[21:23] ---
    Let's go!
[21:24] ---
    Yeah.
[21:28] ---
    Our opponent is Mr. Kato,
    a regular tournament veteran.
[21:33] ---
    Who's that? Never heard of him.
[21:35] ---
    I knew you'd say that.
[21:39] ---
    If we win this, we're going
    to the World Tournament.
[21:42] ---
    And there, even more
    amazing players are waiting!
[21:51] ---
    Build Gundam Mk-II!
[21:53] ---
    Let's go!
[21:58] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[22:02] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[22:04] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[22:07] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[22:21] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[22:27] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[22:32] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[22:38] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[22:42] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[22:47] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[22:50] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[22:55] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[22:58] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[23:01] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[23:03] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[23:06] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni
[23:09] ---
    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[23:12] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[23:14] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[23:17] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,
    Mugen no chikara wo shinjitai kara
[23:22] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[23:24] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[23:34] ---
    I can't believe it.
[23:36] ---
    Tatsuya Yuuki bowed out?
[23:40] ---
    Watch carefully.
[23:41] ---
    You may fight with one of these two.
[23:44] ---
    The white Gunpla is going to win.
[23:55] ---

[23:55] ---
    Okay, everyone. It's time for the goodies.

[00:03] ---
    I see it, Reiji.
[00:05] ---
    He's our opponent for the final round.
[00:09] ---
    Yeah.
[00:10] ---
    Gundam Double X!
[00:14] ---
    This is the power of the famous
    Magician of Armies! Look well!
[00:22] ---
    G-Bits?!
[00:23] ---
    What are those?
[00:25] ---
    They're unmanned mobile suits
    remotely controlled by the Flash System.
[00:30] ---
    Fighting is about numbers!
[00:32] ---
    Even if the performance of each unit is low,
[00:34] ---
    I'll surround and destroy the enemy
    with the sheer amount of firepower.
[00:39] ---
    One single machine
    can't resist my army!
[00:53] ---
    Our Gunpla...
[00:55] ---
    Isn't just for show!
[01:12] ---
    Twelve G-Bits wiped out?
[01:15] ---
    Fire twin satellite cannon!
[01:17] ---
    I know that!
[01:29] ---
    I'll tell you one thing.
[01:31] ---
    Fighting is about quality, not quantity!
[01:37] ---
    Battle ended.
[01:42] ---
    The white Gunpla really won!
[01:45] ---
    But how...?
[01:50] ---
    You're perceptive.
[01:54] ---
    It was worth taking you
    under my wing.
[02:00] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[02:02] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[02:05] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[02:08] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide
[02:12] ---
    And create a bright rainbow up in the sky
    Kono sora ni azayaka na niji wo kakeyou
[02:21] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
[02:24] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of
    Kore to itte torie mo nai
[02:27] ---
    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[02:31] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[02:35] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me
    Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku
[02:39] ---
    When I'm alone inside (Flash back)
    Kokoro no naka de hitori ni naru to (Flash back)
[02:41] ---
    I synchronize with you (Mash up)
    Nara shinkuro sasete (Mash up)
[02:43] ---
    With you, I feel confident (Right now)
    Kimi to nara dekisou sa (Right now)
[02:45] ---
    Ready set go!!
[02:46] ---
    From the minute I felt you in my heart
    Hitori janai tte omoeta toki kara
[02:51] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[02:54] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[02:59] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[03:01] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[03:06] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[03:10] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai
[03:14] ---
    I will cover the powers that you lack
    Chikara wo kasanete
[03:17] ---
    Let's fly away
    Tobitatsu yo…
[03:18] ---
    Don't stand still (Don't stop)
    Tachidomaruna (Don’t stop)
[03:20] ---
    I'll be there for you (Don't cry)
    Soba ni iru kara (Don’t cry)
[03:22] ---
    You're not alone anymore
    Kimi wa mou hitori janai!
[03:24] ---
    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[03:28] ---
    This extra prize for the winner is so cool!
[03:30] ---
    Hey, Sei.
[03:32] ---
    Your grin creeps me out.
[03:34] ---
    Oh, let it go.
[03:37] ---
    He's been like this since
    he won the tournament.
[03:44] ---
    I didn't think the extra prize
    would be a trip to a hot spring.
[03:48] ---
    PPSE, the tournament sponsor,
    is pretty thoughtful.
[03:52] ---
    Mr. Ral, thank you for driving us.
[03:55] ---
    Not at all, I'm happy to do it.
[03:59] ---
    Um...
[04:01] ---
    Was it okay that I tagged along?
[04:03] ---
    Of course it's okay.
[04:05] ---
    The ticket was for five people anyway.
[04:10] ---
    This is your chance, China.
[04:11] ---
    F-For what?
[04:13] ---
    Should I spell it out for you?
[04:15] ---
    No, please don't.
[04:18] ---
    Wh-What? What?
[04:20] ---
    I-It's nothing!
[04:23] ---
    It's good to be young!
[04:27] ---
    Episode 7
    World-Level Ability
[04:42] ---
    Huh?
[04:43] ---
    Hey, the water's salty!
[04:46] ---
    What's up with that?
[04:47] ---
    It's sea water, of course.
[04:50] ---
    Really?
[04:52] ---
    Awesome!
[04:56] ---
    Is this your first time
    swimming in the ocean?
[04:59] ---
    A salty one like this, yeah.
[05:02] ---
    Mr. Ral, is there an ocean
    that isn't salty?
[05:06] ---
    Maybe in the colonies...
[05:09] ---
    We're ready, guys.
[05:16] ---
    Mrs. Rinko, you look beautiful.
[05:20] ---
    Thank you, Mr. Ral.
[05:26] ---
    I know.
[05:28] ---
    I think China's swimsuit is cute, too.
[05:32] ---
    Right, Sei?
[05:35] ---
    Oh, I guess...
[05:38] ---
    Th-The material seems good.
[05:41] ---
    It's really well-detailed.
[05:44] ---
    She's not a Gunpla, Sei.
[05:47] ---
    Hey!
[05:49] ---
    Aren't you gonna swim?
[05:50] ---
    So, Reiji.
[05:51] ---
    What do you think about
    China's swimsuit?
[05:54] ---
    Huh? What do I think?
[06:03] ---
    I wouldn't worry about it.
[06:06] ---
    Right into the minefield!
[06:08] ---
    What's up?
[06:16] ---
    Hey, why did I get hit?
[06:20] ---
    You blurt out everything
    without thinking first.
[06:22] ---
    One, two...
[06:25] ---
    There.
[06:29] ---
    Got it!
[06:35] ---
    Let's start.
[06:36] ---
    Okay.
[06:38] ---
    Nice one.
[06:41] ---
    We really won the tournament.
[06:44] ---
    You're saying it again, Sei.
[06:46] ---
    Thanks.
[06:48] ---
    For what?
[06:50] ---
    Without you, my Gunpla
    would never have won.
[06:55] ---
    Oh, come on.
[06:57] ---
    Are you still dreaming?
[06:59] ---
    The World Tournament's coming up.
[07:02] ---
    Act confident, man.
[07:05] ---
    Yeah, you're right.
[07:18] ---
    Bamboo House Inn
[07:19] ---
    This place looks really run down.
[07:21] ---
    That's strange.
[07:23] ---
    In the pamphlet, it says "high-class inn."
[07:25] ---
    An inn's quality is about
    the service, not the outside.
[07:29] ---
    Bamboo House Inn
[07:31] ---
    Hello.
[07:33] ---
    I'm coming!
[07:36] ---
    Welcome.
[07:38] ---
    M-Mao?!
[07:40] ---
    Why?
[07:42] ---
    Who's this?
[07:43] ---
    He's Mao Yasaka, the winner
    of the championship's 5th Block.
[07:47] ---
    Oh, I get it.
[07:49] ---
    Are you here because of the extra prize?
[07:52] ---
    That's right.
[07:54] ---
    Today's Guests
    Mr. Iori's Party
[07:54] ---
    Today's Guests
    Mr. Iori's Party
[07:54] ---
    The winners of the other blocks
    must be coming on different days.
[07:58] ---
    Today's Guests
    Mr. Iori's Party
[07:58] ---
    Are they?
[07:59] ---
    Today's Guests
    Mr. Iori's Party
[07:59] ---
    I wanted to meet them.
[08:02] ---
    By the way,
[08:03] ---
    why are you dressed like that?
[08:06] ---
    Oh, that's because...
[08:08] ---
    Mr. Yasaka?!
[08:09] ---
    What...
[08:12] ---
    I'm sorry for not noticing!
[08:15] ---
    That's alright.
[08:17] ---
    Please leave it to me.
[08:20] ---
    You're our guest here, too.
[08:22] ---
    Please relax in your room.
[08:24] ---
    Don't say that.
[08:26] ---
    I want to help you, Misaki!
[08:30] ---
    I appreciate the thought, but...
[08:32] ---
    Please let me!
[08:34] ---
    I... want to spend time with you.
[08:40] ---
    He's as persistent as ever.
[08:42] ---
    So nice.
[08:44] ---
    Sei.
[08:45] ---
    Is that guy really going
    to the World Tournament?
[08:48] ---
    You're kidding.
[08:51] ---
    What did you just say?
[08:52] ---
    You're Mr. Reiji, right?
[08:54] ---
    Wanna see if I'm kidding?
[08:56] ---
    They have a battle system in this inn.
[09:01] ---
    Interesting.
[09:05] ---
    Anyway, let's go see our room.
[09:08] ---
    Please.
[09:10] ---
    Y-Yes!
[09:11] ---
    This way, please.
[09:16] ---
    Beautiful!
[09:18] ---
    Wow, great view!
[09:21] ---
    Oh?
[09:24] ---
    Ah, never mind, never mind.
[09:28] ---
    By the way, China.
[09:30] ---
    Yes?
[09:31] ---
    Why don't you go for a walk with Sei?
[09:34] ---
    I think you should learn from Mao!
[09:38] ---
    Um... I...
[09:40] ---
    Just go.
[09:44] ---
    Right after checking in,
    this is what he does?
[09:47] ---
    Seeing Mao again must've
    rekindled his Gunpla spirit.
[09:51] ---
    Well, it's better than him
    grinning all the time.
[09:55] ---
    I agree.
[09:56] ---
    You have only two months
    till the World Tournament.
[10:00] ---
    I'm going to have a bath.
[10:02] ---
    I'll go take a walk, too.
[10:13] ---
    Yes?
[10:19] ---
    Oh, Class Rep.
[10:22] ---
    Sorry for disturbing you.
[10:24] ---
    No! Come in.
[10:29] ---
    What are you doing?
[10:31] ---
    I'm modifying the rifle a little.
[10:33] ---
    Wow, it looks cool.
[10:37] ---
    Um...
[10:38] ---
    I'm building a new Gunpla right now.
[10:45] ---
    I'll have one of these!
[10:49] ---
    Oh?
[10:51] ---
    Where did that Misaki go?
[11:03] ---
    Mr. Yasaka?
[11:05] ---
    Misaki!
[11:07] ---
    Did you repair that?
[11:09] ---
    It's just a temporary fix.
[11:12] ---
    That's my job.
[11:14] ---
    No, please let me do it.
[11:17] ---
    But you're a guest...
[11:19] ---
    I'm very good at handicrafts.
[11:23] ---
    I'm the guy who's gonna be
    the world's best Gunpla builder!
[11:41] ---
    Misaki!
[11:45] ---
    What's going on, Mom?
[11:47] ---
    Take the guests
    and get away from here.
[11:50] ---
    Are they here again?
[11:51] ---
    Just hurry!
[11:55] ---
    What's all this noise?
[12:01] ---
    Huh?!
[12:02] ---
    A crash?!
[12:04] ---
    What was that?
[12:25] ---
    What the heck is this?!
[12:29] ---
    Watch where you're going!
[12:32] ---
    Those guys...
[12:34] ---
    Say something!
[12:35] ---
    Shut up, kid.
[12:39] ---
    So sorry, landlady.
[12:41] ---
    It seems the brakes were faulty.
[12:44] ---
    But you can't keep this inn
    open in this condition.
[12:49] ---
    So now will you give us
    the rights to this dump?
[12:56] ---
    They want to buy the inn?
[12:57] ---
    They're typical land-sharks.
[13:02] ---
    I don't think it's a bad deal.
    Sell us the rights.
[13:05] ---
    It doesn't matter
    how many times you come.
[13:07] ---
    This inn has been handed down
    from generation to generation.
[13:10] ---
    I won't sell it to people like you!
[13:12] ---
    Yeah, go home!
[13:14] ---
    I see.
[13:16] ---
    So, you're the bad guys, right?
[13:19] ---
    Did you forget that
    I told you to shut up, kid?
[13:23] ---
    Yeah, I did.
[13:25] ---
    Who listens to bad guys?
[13:27] ---
    So you're looking for a beatdown.
[13:30] ---
    Reiji!
[13:32] ---
    Stay back!
[13:33] ---
    Sei, this is my specialty.
[13:36] ---
    No! No, Reiji!
[13:38] ---
    She's right.
[13:40] ---
    Fighting is no good.
[13:43] ---
    Stay out of it, old man Ral!
[13:45] ---
    R-Ral?!
[13:48] ---
    L-Lieutenant.
[13:50] ---
    Long time no see, Tatsuzo. No...
[13:53] ---
    Blazing Tatsu!
[13:55] ---
    Do you know him?
[13:57] ---
    Yes. I certainly do.
[13:59] ---
    Blazing Tatsu...
[14:01] ---
    Three years ago, I think,
[14:03] ---
    a Gunpla builder by that name
    fought in the World Tournament.
[14:08] ---
    He's a Gunpla builder?
[14:12] ---
    What happened, Tatsuzo?
[14:15] ---
    You drove people around the world
    into a frenzy with your Gunpla.
[14:19] ---
    So why...?
[14:21] ---
    Don't talk lightly about my past.
[14:24] ---
    This is my job now!
[14:26] ---
    Keep your nose out of it!
[14:28] ---
    So, landlady, tell me what I want to hear.
[14:33] ---
    If not, I'll keep coming back
    until this place is a vacant lot.
[14:39] ---
    Wait!
[14:41] ---
    Let's settle this with Gunpla!
[14:43] ---
    Sei?
[14:44] ---
    You were a Gunpla builder, right?
[14:47] ---
    Then let's settle this in Gunpla Battle!
[14:52] ---
    Yeah!
[14:53] ---
    If we win, don't ever
    bother Misaki's family again!
[14:57] ---
    Shut up, kid!
[14:59] ---
    Okay then.
[15:01] ---
    But if I win, I'll take the rights for free.
[15:05] ---
    Oh no...
[15:11] ---
    Mr. Yasaka...
[15:15] ---
    We accept your conditions!
[15:17] ---
    Misaki?!
[15:18] ---
    Trust me, Mom.
[15:21] ---
    I don't want to lose this place
    without doing anything!
[15:25] ---
    Okay, it's a deal.
[15:27] ---
    I can take you on all at once, kids.
[15:31] ---
    You think it's that easy?
[15:33] ---
    I'm returning a favor.
[15:36] ---
    You made my job easier.
[15:44] ---
    Field 5, City.
[15:47] ---
    Please set your Gunpla.
[15:49] ---
    Let's go, Sei and Mao!
[15:51] ---
    Yeah!
[15:52] ---
    I'm ready!
[16:02] ---
    Battle start.
[16:07] ---
    Gundam X Maoh!
[16:09] ---
    Build Gundam Mk-II!
[16:10] ---
    Let's go!
[16:28] ---
    What firepower!
[16:31] ---
    That's...
[16:35] ---
    ...the heavy assault mobile
    armor, Apsaras III!
[16:40] ---
    That's right.
[16:44] ---
    This is the ultimate Gunpla
    that swept the world!
[16:49] ---
    Just because your Gunpla's big...!
[16:54] ---
    It bounced off?!
[16:55] ---
    Is that an I-field?!
[16:57] ---
    It didn't have one
    in the official setting!
[17:03] ---
    There's no doubt.
[17:05] ---
    It deflects the Plavsky particles,
    and repels the particle beams!
[17:11] ---
    That's the Gunpla that fought through
    the World Tournament for sure!
[17:26] ---
    Why did the beam bounce off?
[17:28] ---
    The surface of the Gunpla
    is specially treated...
[17:31] ---
    ...to alter the Plavsky particles.
[17:34] ---
    That's just like Tatsuzo. He's tough.
[17:37] ---
    Should you be so relaxed?!
[17:47] ---
    You seem restless.
[17:55] ---
    Wh-What?!
[17:58] ---
    What's this gas?
[18:04] ---
    An Adzam Leader?!
[18:11] ---
    Darn. It won't move!
[18:14] ---
    Isn't there anything we can do, Sei?!
[18:23] ---
    Iori!
[18:25] ---
    Can't they do something?
[18:26] ---
    No, they can't.
[18:28] ---
    Nobody has ever escaped
    from this blazing inferno.
[18:32] ---
    Landlady, keep your promise!
[18:47] ---
    How did they...?
[18:50] ---
    Bouncing beams by
    altering the particles...
[18:53] ---
    You aren't the only one
    who knows that technique!
[18:59] ---
    Old guy!
[19:01] ---
    How could you do this to Misaki?
[19:04] ---
    Fool!
[19:05] ---
    The Satellite System won't work
    if the moon hasn't come out.
[19:08] ---
    Who do you think I am?!
[19:14] ---
    I'm the guy who's gonna be
    the world's best Gunpla builder.
[19:18] ---
    Mao Yasaka!
[19:20] ---
    The heir apparent to the
    Gunpla Shingyo school!
[19:24] ---
    You...
[19:25] ---
    Gunpla Shingyo School
[19:28] ---
    Are you Chinan's pupil?!
[19:30] ---
    Remember it!
[19:58] ---
    Sei and Reiji!
[20:00] ---
    Okay!
    Okay!
[20:08] ---
    Take this!
[20:22] ---
    Battle ended.
[20:26] ---
    Yes, they did it!
[20:33] ---
    Mr. Yasaka.
[20:36] ---
    Thank you, everyone.
[20:41] ---
    Why... Why didn't my blaze...
[20:46] ---
    Tatsuzo.
[20:48] ---
    Gunpla is constantly evolving.
[20:50] ---
    The goddess of victory won't smile
    on those who neglect their daily efforts.
[20:57] ---
    One more thing.
[20:58] ---
    Keep your promise to the landlady.
[21:01] ---
    L-Lieutenant...
[21:08] ---
    Well, I'll be leaving now.
[21:11] ---
    Mao.
[21:13] ---
    Seriously, thank you for yesterday.
[21:15] ---
    Please be sure to come again.
[21:18] ---
    Of course I will!
[21:20] ---
    I'll win the qualifying tournament
    every year and come back!
[21:24] ---
    I'll be waiting.
[21:28] ---
    Oh, look at him.
[21:32] ---
    By the way, Mr. Reiji,
    we still have to fight it out.
[21:37] ---
    Bring it on.
[21:39] ---
    More importantly...
[21:41] ---
    How did you fire the
    hyper satellite cannon,
[21:44] ---
    without the super microwave system?
[21:49] ---
    I can't tell you that.
[21:51] ---
    It's top secret.
[21:54] ---
    Okay.
[21:57] ---
    We'll definitely win
    in the World Tournament.
[22:02] ---
    I'll start building a new Gunpla
    as soon as we get home.
[22:05] ---
    I'm counting on you.
[22:07] ---
    You got it!
[22:08] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[22:11] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[22:14] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[22:16] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[22:30] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[22:37] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[22:41] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[22:47] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[22:51] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[22:57] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[22:59] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[23:04] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[23:08] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[23:11] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[23:13] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[23:16] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni
[23:19] ---
    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[23:21] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[23:24] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[23:27] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,
    Mugen no chikara wo shinjitai kara
[23:32] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[23:34] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[23:39] ---
    It's finally complete.
[23:42] ---
    The works model our PPSE research team
    used all of their resources to build.
[23:48] ---
    And of course, you will be its fighter.
[23:52] ---
    Kawaguchi.

[00:03] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[00:09] ---
    The Plavsky particle.
[00:11] ---
    This is the name of a special particle...
[00:15] ---
    ...invented by the Plavsky Particle
    System Engineering Company, or PPSE.
[00:31] ---
    These particles react with the plastic
    from which Gunpla is made.
[00:35] ---
    By fluidly controlling the particles,
[00:38] ---
    the normally immobile Gunpla can be
    manipulated as the controller wishes.
[00:45] ---
    And through the use of
    particle transformation,
[00:48] ---
    effects such as beams, missiles,
    and explosions can be reproduced.
[01:06] ---
    Any thoughts, Professor?
[01:10] ---
    Are you seriously going to do research
    on a particle that only moves toys?
[01:15] ---
    You, the one they call the "Early Genius!"
[01:20] ---
    Professor, may I speak?
[01:22] ---
    Did you know Plavsky particles are made
    by bonding antiparticles together?
[01:29] ---
    I-Is that right?
[01:31] ---
    This technology could be
    applied to other fields of study.
[01:34] ---
    However, PPSE only uses this
    revolutionary particle to move toys.
[01:41] ---
    Besides, the manufacturing method
    is kept completely secret.
[01:45] ---
    Either they're scared of their
    technology being leaked and misused,
[01:49] ---
    or there's some other reason.
[01:52] ---
    Professor, I...
[01:54] ---
    ...I have to discover
    the secret of this particle.
[02:01] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[02:03] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[02:06] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[02:09] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide
[02:14] ---
    And create a bright rainbow up in the sky
    Kono sora ni azayaka na niji wo kakeyou
[02:22] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
[02:25] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of
    Kore to itte torie mo nai
[02:28] ---
    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[02:32] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[02:36] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me
    Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku
[02:40] ---

    Kokoro no naka de hitori ni naru to (Flash back)
[02:42] ---
    I synchronize with you (Mash up)
    Nara shinkuro sasete (Mash up)
[02:44] ---
    With you, I feel confident (Right now)
    Kimi to nara dekisou sa (Right now)
[02:46] ---
    Ready set go!!
[02:47] ---
    From the minute I felt you in my heart
    Hitori janai tte omoeta toki kara
[02:52] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[02:55] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[03:00] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[03:03] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[03:07] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[03:11] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai
[03:15] ---
    I will cover the powers that you lack
    Chikara wo kasanete
[03:18] ---
    Let's fly away
    Tobitatsu yo…
[03:19] ---
    Don't stand still (Don't stop)

[03:21] ---
    I'll be there for you (Don't cry)
    Soba ni iru kara (Don’t cry)
[03:23] ---
    You're not alone anymore
    Kimi wa mou hitori janai!
[03:25] ---
    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[03:28] ---
    Episode 8
    Encounters of Fighters
[03:33] ---
    New York, America
[03:36] ---
    Hey, Ricardo!
[03:38] ---
    Ricardo Fellini!
[03:40] ---
    Long time no see, Greco.
[03:42] ---
    Haven't seen you since
    the last World Tournament.
[03:44] ---
    Yeah, I guess.
[03:47] ---
    What brings you here?
[03:49] ---
    Tomorrow's the final round
    of the qualifiers, right?
[03:51] ---
    I came to encourage you.
[03:53] ---
    Guess you have some free time
    now that you're in the World Tournament.
[03:57] ---
    Don't be sarcastic.
[04:01] ---
    Oh, if it isn't this year's new model.
[04:04] ---
    I see, it's well built.
[04:06] ---
    I'll pay you back for my losses in
    the last two World Tournaments.
[04:11] ---
    Is your opponent Scott? Or is it Carter?
[04:15] ---
    No, it's some first-timer kid.
[04:18] ---
    Then it'll be easy.
[04:20] ---
    I'm not so sure about that.
[04:22] ---
    I hear he only has three months
    of experience with Gunpla.
[04:27] ---
    Three months...
[04:29] ---
    What's his name?
[04:32] ---
    Nils.
[04:33] ---
    Nils Nielsen.
[04:37] ---
    Greco Logan. Age 27.
    20 years of Gunpla experience.
[04:42] ---
    Has previously participated
    in two World Tournaments.
[04:45] ---
    Top rank is Best 16.
[04:48] ---
    The Gunpla he uses is
    the Tallgeese Valkyrie.
[04:53] ---
    This machine possesses
    high firepower, heavy armor,
[04:56] ---
    and more than enough thrust to match.
[05:02] ---
    You're fighting in
    the Gunpla Battle Championship?
[05:05] ---
    Yes. The best way to get information
    about the Plavsky particle,
[05:09] ---
    is to win the qualifiers
    and get into the World Tournament.
[05:15] ---
    The PPSE works team will also
    participate in the Tournament,
[05:19] ---
    and its founders will be at the venue.
[05:23] ---
    If I become a contestant,
    I'll be able to meet them...
[05:26] ---
    ...at receptions and other events.
[05:30] ---
    That being said, I'm facing
    Mr. Greco in the final round.
[05:35] ---
    He's on another level
    from my previous opponents.
[05:39] ---
    To compete with him...
[05:44] ---
    I wanted to keep it in reserve
    until the World Tournament, but...
[06:00] ---
    Rate of particle motion, 99.97 percent.
[06:05] ---
    Particle compression rate of
    energy packs installed in weapons...
[06:08] ---
    ...is stable at 24 percent.
[06:13] ---
    The high polycaps in all joints
    have been successfully activated.
[06:16] ---
    No loss of emotion paint.
[06:20] ---
    The numbers underwater are
    equal to those on land.
[06:23] ---
    It's just as you designed it, Chief Allan.
[06:26] ---
    No, it's all thanks to
    the PPSE lab's technology.
[06:30] ---
    What's more, its fighter
    is Meijin Kawaguchi.
[06:37] ---
    We're all set for
    the World Tournament.
[06:40] ---
    I still have concerns.
[06:43] ---
    Nemesis?
[06:45] ---
    Yes. The Gunpla team led by the
    methane hydrate excavation king.
[06:50] ---
    Rumor has it they're aiming to
    make it to the World Tournament.
[06:54] ---
    Is that so...
[06:57] ---
    Sir, Mr. Barthes from the
    Flana Institute wants to see you.
[07:02] ---
    Let him in.
[07:03] ---
    Yes, sir.
[07:09] ---
    Excuse me, sir.
    Let me wish you the best—
[07:12] ---
    Enough pleasantries. Let me see him.
[07:16] ---
    Absolutely, sir. Get in here.
[07:26] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[07:27] ---
    My name is Aila Jyrkiäinen,
    from the Flana Institute.
[07:33] ---
    What is this?
[07:35] ---
    What, sir?
[07:37] ---
    Our Nemesis team asked for
    the strongest Gunpla fighter.
[07:42] ---
    That's why we invested
    big bucks in you.
[07:45] ---
    And this is the result?
[07:48] ---
    Aila is the Flana Institute's masterpiece.
[07:52] ---
    She is humanity's strongest fighter.
[07:55] ---
    Chairman, if you're
    skeptical about my ability,
[07:58] ---
    please see it with your own eyes.
[08:02] ---
    I see.
[08:05] ---
    Yes, sir.
[08:06] ---
    Call Gawain. He has a battle.
[08:09] ---
    But she didn't bring her Gunpla.
[08:14] ---
    Just use one in the battle room.
[08:16] ---
    If you're humanity's strongest,
    you won't mind, right?
[08:20] ---
    Of course not.
[08:22] ---
    Your opponent is Gawain!
[08:23] ---
    Never heard of him.
[08:26] ---
    He's the main fighter of team Nemesis,
    and a world-level player.
[08:32] ---
    Come in.
[08:37] ---
    Gawain, it's battle time.
[08:41] ---
    Iori Models
[08:43] ---
    Huh?
[08:44] ---
    Is Sei still holed up in there?
[08:47] ---
    I've been telling him to take a break.
[08:51] ---
    But just like his dad,
[08:54] ---
    he won't stop once he gets all fired up.
[08:57] ---
    One month until the World Tournament.
[09:00] ---
    When I won the regional qualifiers,
[09:02] ---
    I assumed the Build Strike Gundam
    could compete in the World Tournament.
[09:08] ---
    Reiji battled for me as a fighter,
[09:10] ---
    and I poured all my energy
    into the Build Strike.
[09:18] ---
    But as we are now,
    we just aren't good enough.
[09:21] ---
    We lost to Yuuki, a contestant
    in the last World Tournament.
[09:24] ---
    His levels of completion,
    manueverability, and firepower...
[09:28] ---
    Reiji and I couldn't match them.
[09:34] ---
    When we went to the sea,
    we fought that mobile armor Apsaras.
[09:39] ---
    Its I-field reflected particle beams
    by altering the Plavsky particles.
[09:45] ---
    That's the true strength of
    a world-level Gunpla.
[09:51] ---
    And then there was Mao.
[09:52] ---
    Even without a super microwave system,
[09:55] ---
    he fired his hyper satellite cannon.
[10:00] ---
    All the Gunpla that
    fight at the world level...
[10:03] ---
    They all understand and apply the
    characteristics of Plavsky particles.
[10:10] ---
    I've got to build an
    original Gunpla that can face them!
[10:42] ---
    Darn!
[10:43] ---
    Where'd it go?!
[11:06] ---
    Battle ended.
[11:09] ---
    Gawain's Devil Gundam,
    defeated by a Jegan...
[11:13] ---
    Wh-Who the heck are you?!
[11:17] ---
    So what do you think, Chairman?
[11:20] ---
    Excellent.
[11:21] ---
    I'll make her the team's main fighter.
[11:25] ---
    Thank you very much.
[11:27] ---
    But don't get conceited.
[11:30] ---
    He will also be a contestant
    in the qualifying tournament.
[11:35] ---
    The champion of
    the last World Tournament,
[11:38] ---
    Carlos Kaiser.
[11:41] ---
    Can you defeat him, Aila Jyrkiäinen?
[11:46] ---
    If that is your order.
[11:49] ---
    Hey, 6.5 billion Gunpla fans
    around the world!
[11:53] ---
    The moment of joy has come!
[11:55] ---
    Tonight, here, at the
    La Vie en Rose Garden...
[12:06] ---
    It's the final round of the
    American regional qualifiers!
[12:09] ---
    This will decide who goes to the
    Gunpla Battle Championship World Tournament!
[12:13] ---
    This sizzling match
    will be brought to you live!
[12:19] ---
    Isn't it exciting?
[12:20] ---
    Of course.
[12:22] ---
    I can't wait.
[12:23] ---
    In this final round, we'll see Greco,
    who went to last year's World Tournament.
[12:28] ---
    His abilities are guaranteed.
[12:31] ---
    But his opponent Nils
    can't be underestimated either.
[12:34] ---
    Nils is only 13 years old,
[12:36] ---
    and this is his first time
    entering the tournament.
[12:38] ---
    Ability in Gunpla Battle
    isn't a matter of experience.
[12:42] ---
    So it seems.
[12:54] ---
    He's here!
[12:55] ---
    America's mightiest raging bull!
[12:59] ---
    But, despite his bold nickname,
[13:02] ---
    his fighting style is
    subtle and accurate!
[13:04] ---
    The winner of the previous
    qualifying tournament,
[13:07] ---
    Greco Logan!
[13:12] ---
    Wow, he looks full of spirit.
[13:15] ---
    He seems resolute about this!
[13:17] ---
    Yes.
[13:18] ---
    Please welcome the challenger
    from the opposite side.
[13:22] ---
    He's just 13 years old!
[13:24] ---
    But having skipped grades and
    gone to America's top university,
[13:27] ---
    this young genius has
    already earned three Ph.Ds!
[13:31] ---
    His father is a world-famous detective,
[13:34] ---
    and his mother is a master of martial arts.
[13:36] ---
    The one-of-a-kind super-boy, Nils Nielsen!
[13:44] ---
    As always!
[13:45] ---
    It's Nils' famous Samurai Hello!
[13:49] ---
    Influenced by his mother,
    he's also familiar with martial arts.
[13:52] ---
    I hear he's a black belt
    in both karate and judo.
[13:56] ---
    I can't wait to watch this match!
[13:59] ---
    I've been looking forward to this.
[14:01] ---
    I can't wait to battle with you, Early Genius.
[14:05] ---
    Thanks.
[14:07] ---
    But I can't let you go
    to the World Tournament.
[14:09] ---
    There's a man waiting for me there.
[14:15] ---
    I also have a reason not to lose.
[14:18] ---
    Well then, let's see
    whose feelings are stronger.
[14:22] ---
    Bring it on!
[14:26] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[14:31] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[14:38] ---
    The Plavsky particle.
[14:40] ---
    If I can just find out
    the secret of this particle,
[14:44] ---
    then I can...
[14:48] ---
    Field 1, Space.
[14:51] ---
    Please set your Gunpla.
[15:03] ---
    An improved version of
    the Gundam Astray?
[15:06] ---
    He switched machines to face Greco.
[15:09] ---
    How on earth will he fight?
[15:18] ---
    It'll be even more fun defeating you, now.
[15:23] ---
    Tallgeese Valkyrie, launching!
[15:26] ---
    Sengoku Astray, here I come!
[15:31] ---
    The final round has begun!
[15:39] ---
    That Astray's a close range type.
[15:41] ---
    It doesn't have any extra
    long range weapons.
[15:43] ---
    So...
[15:55] ---
    He's dodging with minimum movement.
[15:58] ---
    Is that what they call
    "mikiri" in the martial arts?
[16:01] ---
    In that case...!
[16:14] ---
    Darn!
[16:16] ---
    Take a full burst!
[16:33] ---
    Th-This is amazing!
[16:36] ---
    The Sengoku Astray is splitting
    Greco's beam in half!
[16:41] ---
    I can't believe it.
[17:00] ---
    Greco!
[17:08] ---
    The match is over.
[17:10] ---
    Not yet.
[17:17] ---
    It's not over yet!
[17:21] ---
    Please just give up.
[17:22] ---
    There's no use battling any longer.
[17:24] ---
    I'm being underestimated, huh?
[17:27] ---
    Why are you still fighting,
    knowing you'll lose?
[17:31] ---
    I told you. There's a man
    who I truly want to defeat.
[17:35] ---
    I can't lose here!
[18:03] ---
    At this distance,
    you can't use your precious swords!
[18:06] ---
    I'll slam you against the rocks!
[18:10] ---
    It's useless!
[18:37] ---
    Come on.
[18:51] ---
    Wh-What?
[18:56] ---
    What happened?!
[18:59] ---
    What did you do?!
[19:12] ---
    Battle ended.
[19:15] ---
    B-Battle ended!
[19:18] ---
    Nils Nielsen's Astray has defeated
    Greco, the raging bull!
[19:23] ---
    This is unbelievable.
[19:26] ---
    The champion of the
    American qualifying tournament,
[19:28] ---
    the player who will go to the
    World Tournament, has been decided!
[19:31] ---
    The winner is Samurai Boy, Nils Nielsen!
[19:41] ---
    Greco.
[19:43] ---
    I didn't imagine the match
    would be this one-sided.
[19:47] ---
    Those swords, and that final technique.
[19:52] ---
    That boy makes full use of
    the Plavsky particle.
[19:58] ---
    This is...
[20:00] ---
    ...a Gunpla built by the new generation.
[20:04] ---
    A reformation, I should say.
[20:07] ---
    No, it's not just him.
[20:10] ---
    New fighters from
    around the world are...
[20:11] ---
    Bangkok, Thailand
[20:24] ---
    Buenos Aires, Argentina
[20:46] ---
    Gunpla Shingyo School
[20:59] ---
    Hey, Sei!
[21:01] ---
    I said, Sei!
[21:03] ---
    Why are you shouting?
[21:05] ---
    What?
[21:07] ---
    Isn't your Gunpla ready yet?
[21:10] ---
    It's not that easy!
[21:13] ---
    Go away, I need to concentrate!
[21:14] ---
    Wh-What did you say to me?!
[21:17] ---
    Just...
[21:19] ---
    Leave me alone!
[21:21] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[21:25] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[21:27] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[21:30] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[21:44] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[21:50] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[21:55] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[22:01] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[22:05] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[22:10] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[22:13] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[22:18] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[22:21] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[22:24] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[22:26] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[22:29] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni
[22:32] ---
    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[22:35] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[22:37] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[22:40] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,
    Mugen no chikara wo shinjitai kara
[22:45] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[22:47] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[22:55] ---
    I'm finally here.
[22:57] ---
    It was worth traveling this far to watch
    the last tournament's champ, Carlos Kaiser.
[23:04] ---
    Oh, my.
[23:05] ---
    The final round is about to begin.
[23:08] ---
    I'd better hurry.
[23:16] ---
    Wh-What's all this cheering?
[23:19] ---
    The battle should've just begun...
[23:23] ---
    Kaiser's Alpha Azieru...!
[23:29] ---
    The world champion, beaten so badly?
[23:34] ---
    What kind of fighter is that?
[23:39] ---
    Aila Jyrkiäinen of team Nemesis...
[23:43] ---
    ...will represent Finland in the 7th Gunpla
    Battle Championship World Tournament.
[23:51] ---
    I-It's a young lady!
[23:54] ---

    The day has come at last.
[00:07] ---
    Keyakigaoka Middle School Art Exhibition
[00:08] ---
    Keyakigaoka Middle School Art Exhibition
[00:11] ---
    It's time to end to this!
[00:13] ---
    I've undergone gifted
    education in the arts,
[00:15] ---
    and have won prizes
    at many exhibitions.
[00:19] ---
    There is only one person
    better than I, Caroline Yajima...
[00:22] ---
    And she always stands in my way.
[00:24] ---
    But this year...
[00:27] ---
    I'm going to get my revenge,
    China Kousaka!
[00:31] ---
    Oh, Caro. Long time no see.
[00:34] ---
    It's not Caro, it's Caroline!
[00:36] ---
    Caroline Yajima!
[00:38] ---
    Don't address me like
    some candy mascot!
[00:40] ---
    But you're still Caro to me.
[00:43] ---
    Like I said...!
[00:46] ---
    No, no.
[00:47] ---
    She's just trying to upset me
    for the sake of psychological warfare.
[00:51] ---
    It's not going to be that easy.
[00:53] ---
    I'm not only trained in the arts,
    but also in mental disciplines.
[00:57] ---
    Yes, everything I do...
[01:00] ---
    ...is to win against you!
[01:03] ---
    Aren't you going to check the results?
[01:04] ---
    Of course I am!
[01:08] ---
    Miss Caroline.
[01:10] ---
    J's Dining Table
    Caroline Yajima
[01:10] ---
    Congratulations on your gold prize.
[01:10] ---
    J's Dining Table
    Caroline Yajima
[01:13] ---
    The contours are crisp,
    and the image is well simplified.
[01:16] ---
    The value contrast is strong.
[01:18] ---
    You fully explored the charm
    of watercolor painting.
[01:21] ---
    It's an excellent piece.
[01:25] ---
    Congrats.
[01:27] ---
    I guess I should
    thank you for saying that.
[01:31] ---
    By the way,
    what kind of work did you present?
[01:34] ---
    Some landscape, like always?
[01:37] ---
    Not this time.
[01:39] ---
    Beargguy in Wonder Forest
    Grand Prize
    China Kousaka
[01:42] ---
    G-Grand prize?!
[01:47] ---
    It's better than your prize, Miss.
[01:49] ---
    The most valuable...!
[01:51] ---
    That's just like my lifelong rival.
[01:54] ---
    But what is this?!
[01:56] ---
    What on earth is this?
    A bear? A robot?!
[01:59] ---
    It's not a robot, but a Gunpla.
[02:01] ---
    A what?
[02:04] ---
    Gunpla means a plastic model
    from the anime "Mobile Suit Gundam."
[02:10] ---
    A plastic model...
[02:12] ---
    I lost to a piece that's about a toy?
[02:16] ---
    Sh-She's making fun of me.
[02:19] ---
    China Kousaka...
[02:20] ---
    ...I won't forget this humiliation!
[02:27] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[02:29] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[02:32] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[02:35] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide

    And create a bright rainbow up in the sky

    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
[02:51] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of
    Kore to itte torie mo nai
[02:54] ---
    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[02:58] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[03:02] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me
    Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku
[03:06] ---
    When I'm alone inside (Flash back)
    Kokoro no naka de hitori ni naru to (Flash back)

    With you, I feel confident (Right now)
    Kimi to nara dekisou sa (Right now)
[03:12] ---
    Ready set go!!
[03:13] ---
    From the minute I felt you in my heart
    Hitori janai tte omoeta toki kara
[03:18] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[03:21] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[03:26] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[03:29] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[03:33] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[03:37] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai
[03:41] ---
    I will cover the powers that you lack
    Chikara wo kasanete
[03:44] ---
    Let's fly away
    Tobitatsu yo…
[03:45] ---
    Don't stand still (Don't stop)
    Tachidomaruna (Don’t stop)
[03:47] ---
    I'll be there for you (Don't cry)
    Soba ni iru kara (Don’t cry)
[03:49] ---
    You're not alone anymore
    Kimi wa mou hitori janai!

    Episode 9
    Wings of Imagination
[04:01] ---
    Welcome.
[04:06] ---
    Are you ready to order?
[04:08] ---
    T-Two rice omelets, please.
[04:12] ---
    C-Certainly, sir.
[04:18] ---
    Dad, two rice omelets.
[04:21] ---
    Hey, China.
[04:23] ---
    Can't you be a little friendlier
    to our customers?
[04:28] ---
    L-Like this?
[04:30] ---
    My bad...
[04:32] ---
    Just be yourself.
[04:36] ---
    China, you have a phone call
    from Iori's mother.
[04:41] ---
    Hello, it's China.
[04:44] ---
    China, help me.
[04:46] ---
    What's the matter?
[04:47] ---
    These last few days,
[04:49] ---
    Sei hasn't come out of our workshop.
[04:53] ---
    Except for eating and sleeping,
    he's always working on his Gunpla.
[04:56] ---
    I tell him to rest,
    but he won't listen.
[04:59] ---
    But he might listen to what you say.
[05:04] ---
    I mean, you are
    his precious girlfriend.
[05:13] ---
    Okay.
[05:14] ---
    I'll be right there!
[05:18] ---
    Iori Models
[05:21] ---
    Thanks for the meal, Class Rep.
[05:25] ---
    Iori, you're working too hard.
[05:30] ---
    I know.
[05:32] ---
    But I have less than two weeks
    until the World Tournament.
[05:35] ---
    But...
[05:37] ---
    Your Gunpla is almost done.
[05:41] ---
    Yeah.
[05:42] ---
    I think I gave it everything I have.
[05:46] ---
    But I wonder if this Gunpla...
[05:48] ---
    ...can fight on par with
    the world's greatest fighters.
[05:52] ---
    I can't help but think
    there's more I can do.
[05:57] ---
    I know I have to finish it soon
    so Reiji can practice, but...
[06:03] ---
    Where is he?
[06:04] ---
    I haven't seen him for a few days.
[06:07] ---
    But there's nothing unusual about that.
[06:09] ---
    Hey, Iori.
[06:11] ---
    Huh?
[06:12] ---
    I finished my new Gunpla.
[06:15] ---
    Would you take a look at it?
[06:18] ---
    Really?! I will, I will! Show me!
[06:21] ---
    It's not as nicely built as yours.
[06:23] ---
    That doesn't matter!
[06:25] ---
    I'll go get it, then.
[06:27] ---
    Meet me at the park?
[06:28] ---
    Okay.
[06:30] ---
    Nice job, China.
[06:38] ---
    A Beargguy made using
    your original colors, huh?
[06:42] ---
    You're definitely a member of the art club!
[06:44] ---
    The paint is really well done.
[06:46] ---
    You think?
[06:47] ---
    Yeah!
[06:48] ---
    You'd never think that
    a Gunpla beginner built it.
[06:53] ---
    Huh?
[06:55] ---
    What is it?
[06:56] ---
    Class Rep, this Beargguy...
[07:03] ---
    Haven't seen you since
    the exhibition, Miss China.
[07:08] ---
    Do you know her?
[07:10] ---
    I see her often at art exhibitions.
    Her name is Caro.
[07:14] ---
    Don't call me by that name!
[07:15] ---
    I'm not Caro, I'm Caroline!
[07:18] ---
    Caroline Yajima!
[07:22] ---
    Oh no.
[07:24] ---
    I almost got caught up
    in your game again.
[07:27] ---
    By the way,
[07:28] ---
    I did some research on you, Miss China.
[07:32] ---
    You got a boyfriend recently, huh?
[07:36] ---
    What? I'm not her boyfriend.
[07:39] ---
    Right?
[07:40] ---
    Um...
[07:43] ---
    Oh, how charmingly naïve.
[07:46] ---
    But that's not my point!
[07:49] ---
    You've been building Gunpla
    because of his influence, right?
[07:53] ---
    Yeah.
[07:55] ---
    This is the Gunpla that I built,
[07:58] ---
    Beargguy III.
[08:01] ---
    How cute!
[08:03] ---
    Right?
[08:04] ---
    Look. Its mouth moves.
[08:06] ---
    Cute!
[08:07] ---
    Right?
[08:09] ---
    "Hello, Caro."
[08:11] ---
    "I'm Beargguy."
[08:12] ---
    Hello!
[08:14] ---
    I'm Caro!
[08:18] ---
    Stop it!
[08:19] ---
    Why am I putting on
    a puppet show with a Gunpla?!
[08:22] ---
    But, Miss Caro...
[08:24] ---
    It's Caroline!
[08:26] ---
    S-Sorry...
[08:27] ---
    I thought you came to see the Class Rep?
[08:31] ---
    Oops. For a person of my status,
    I lost control a little bit.
[08:36] ---
    Miss China Kousaka.
[08:37] ---
    Yes?
[08:38] ---
    I came to tell you about... this!
SIGN    Gunpla Battle World Tournament Exhibition Girls' Only Gunpla Battle Now Taking Applications
[08:42] ---
    "In commemoration of the
    Gunpla Battle World Tournament?"
[08:46] ---
    "Girls-Only Gunpla Battle...
    Now recruiting contestants?"
[08:50] ---
    Yes!
[08:51] ---
    I lost to you at the last exhibition.
[08:54] ---
    But I'll beat you this time!
[08:57] ---
    Let's see whose Gunpla is
    the most beautiful and the strongest!
[09:01] ---
    I challenge you!
[09:02] ---
    W-Wait a minute.
[09:04] ---
    I didn't build Beargguy III
    to play Gunpla Battle.
[09:08] ---
    Are you chickening out?
[09:10] ---
    No, I'm just...
[09:12] ---
    These last few days,
[09:14] ---
    Sei hasn't come out of our workshop.
[09:17] ---
    Except for eating and sleeping,
    he's always working on his Gunpla.
[09:21] ---
    Okay. I'll enter.
[09:23] ---
    Class Rep?
[09:24] ---
    So you'll accept my challenge?
[09:27] ---
    Yes. I will.
[09:30] ---
    Thank you, Miss China.
[09:31] ---
    I'll be waiting for you
    at the arena next Sunday.
[09:38] ---
    Are you sure, Class Rep?
[09:40] ---
    Yes. I've made up my mind.
[09:43] ---
    Iori, I've never played Gunpla Battle.
[09:46] ---
    Will you teach me?
[09:47] ---
    Okay.
[09:49] ---
    I can teach you
    stuff about Gunpla,
[09:52] ---
    but as for controlling it...
[09:54] ---
    I'll teach her.
[09:56] ---
    Reiji!
[09:58] ---
    I heard what you were talking about.
[10:01] ---
    If you're challenged by
    some awful stuck-up girl,
[10:04] ---
    you'll just have to win!
[10:06] ---
    Yes, I intend to.
[10:08] ---
    Okay! Let's go to the store!
[10:11] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of

[11:14] ---
    Thank you for being my personal

    You're welcome.
[11:20] ---
    It's an honor to be able to

    Nils Nielsen.
[11:28] ---
    Dad!
[11:29] ---
    Caroline? Why are you...?
[11:31] ---
    I have a favor to ask of
    the American champion.
[11:35] ---
    Huh? I...
[11:37] ---
    I'll explain the details
    at my mansion.
[11:41] ---
    There's no time to waste!
[11:43] ---
    W-Wait. What...?
[11:45] ---
    What's going on, Mr. President?!
[11:50] ---
    No! It's not like that!
[11:52] ---
    It's more like,
    Pow, Bang and Boom!
[11:57] ---
    Reiji, how is she going
    to understand that?
[12:01] ---
    Control skills are my department.
    I'll do it my way!
[12:05] ---
    P-Please don't fight.
[12:13] ---
    Class Rep, keep an eye
    on your opponent!
[12:15] ---
    Okay.
[12:20] ---
    Here I go!
[12:43] ---
    Okay.
[12:45] ---
    You should win tomorrow's match
    if you can move like this.
[12:48] ---
    Thanks, Reiji and Iori.
[12:52] ---
    Sei, it's already dark.
[12:54] ---
    Walk her home.
[12:55] ---
    Okay, I got it.
[12:59] ---
    I'll go cheer you on
    tomorrow with Reiji.
[13:03] ---
    Thanks.
[13:05] ---
    Can I ask you one thing?
[13:07] ---
    Yes?
[13:08] ---
    Why did you decide to
    play Gunpla Battle?
[13:11] ---
    It seemed like you hated it at first.
[13:13] ---
    Th-That's because...
[13:15] ---
    It's okay, I was just curious.
[13:19] ---
    I got to teach you about Gunpla
    and how to control them.
[13:24] ---
    I'm really happy about that.
[13:27] ---
    I was able to go back to the basics,
[13:30] ---
    since I was at a dead end
    building my new Gunpla.
[13:36] ---
    Wait, did you...?
[13:37] ---
    Iori, here is fine.
[13:40] ---
    See you tomorrow.
[13:42] ---
    Goodnight.
[13:59] ---
    Good luck, China!
[14:01] ---
    We're rooting for you!
[14:04] ---
    Yeah, thanks.
[14:09] ---
    You're finally here, Miss China.
[14:11] ---
    I commend you for not running away.
[14:14] ---
    Today is the day that I defeat you.
[14:20] ---
    Miss Caroline.
[14:22] ---
    Is she the girl that you want
    to beat no matter what?
[14:26] ---
    Yes.
[14:27] ---
    Don't worry. Just fight as
    I taught you, and you'll win.
[14:32] ---
    We now begin the Gunpla Battle
    World Tournament Commemorative...
[14:36] ---
    ...Girls-Only Gunpla Battle Tournament.
[14:40] ---
    Introducing the players for match one...
[14:43] ---
    Miss China Kousaka, a first year student
    at Seiho Academy middle school.
[14:47] ---
    Her Gunpla is Beargguy III.
[14:50] ---
    Miss Alice Imai, a second year student
    at Sakurazaka Senior High School.
[14:53] ---
    Her Gunpla is the Noble Gundam Deco.
[14:58] ---
    Iori isn't here yet...
[15:02] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[15:09] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[15:18] ---
    Field 3, Forest.
[15:20] ---
    Beargguy III, it might hurt a bit,
[15:23] ---
    but let's do this together.
[15:29] ---
    Battle start.
[15:34] ---
    China Kousaka, Beargguy III. Here I go!
[15:55] ---
    Relax and aim carefully.
[16:04] ---
    Battle ended.
[16:08] ---
    She's pretty good.
[16:11] ---
    She'd better be.
[16:13] ---
    She can't lose before I beat her.
[16:17] ---
    Why were you late?!
[16:19] ---
    Sorry!
[16:21] ---
    What if the Class Rep's battle is over?!
[16:24] ---
    Don't worry.
[16:25] ---
    Her control is pretty good now.
[16:27] ---
    She won't lose to some no-name player.
[16:34] ---
    Girls' Only
    Gunpla Battle Tournament
[16:37] ---
    She made it to the next round!
[16:38] ---
    See, just like I told you.
[16:41] ---
    What's the situation?
[16:51] ---
    Elementary stuff!
[16:53] ---
    That girl!
[16:54] ---
    However cute it may be,
    with that kind of performance,
[16:58] ---
    you can't beat my Knight Gundam!
[17:04] ---
    Sei, what is that
    funny looking Gunpla?
[17:07] ---
    It's an SD Gundam.
[17:09] ---
    They're Gunpla whose heads and bodies are the same size.
[17:12] ---
    They're made to look cute.
[17:14] ---
    But... that Gunpla is beautifully made.
[17:22] ---
    Even if it's the Legend version,
[17:25] ---
    the surface plating is perfect.
[17:26] ---
    It was painted without using stickers.
[17:28] ---
    The cape has been
    replaced with real cloth!
[17:31] ---
    This isn't the work of someone
    who just started building Gunpla.
[17:35] ---
    How on earth...?
[17:37] ---
    You haven't seen anything yet!
[17:40] ---
    Take a good look, Miss China.
[17:42] ---
    This is the elegant, brave,
    and magnificent true form...
[17:47] ---
    ...of my Knight Gundam!
[17:50] ---
    I won't lose!
[17:56] ---
    You can do it, Class Rep!
[17:57] ---
    Iori!
[18:00] ---
    You can't afford to look away!
[18:05] ---
    Darn it!
[18:05] ---
    Class Rep!
[18:12] ---
    Goodbye, Miss China!
[18:15] ---
    Adieu!
[18:22] ---
    What?
[18:23] ---
    It bounced back?
[18:27] ---
    Whatever trick you played...
[18:39] ---
    Cotton inside a Gunpla?
[18:41] ---
    Why is there...?
[18:43] ---
    What were you thinking?!
[18:45] ---
    Well, Beargguy III's back story is that one day,
    a cute teddy bear turned into a robot.
[18:53] ---
    What kind of logic is that?!
[18:55] ---
    I've had enough!
[19:05] ---
    I-I can't move!
[19:08] ---
    The cotton is stuck in the parts!
[19:10] ---
    She stopped her move.
[19:12] ---
    I've never seen a Gunpla like that...
[19:19] ---
    What is this?!
[19:22] ---
    I may have put in too much cotton.
[19:25] ---
    Move!
[19:26] ---
    Please move, my Knight!
[19:38] ---
    I can't accept it...
[19:39] ---
    I won't accept it!
[19:45] ---
    Such a Gunpla Battle is unacceptable!
[19:59] ---
    Battle ended.
[20:03] ---
    Amazing, Class Rep!
[20:05] ---
    Good job, China!
[20:13] ---
    Oh, man.
[20:15] ---
    Why did you lose
    in the final round?
[20:17] ---
    She couldn't help it.
[20:19] ---
    She didn't have the parts
    to fix that damaged arm.
[20:21] ---
    But congrats on
    coming in second, Class Rep.
[20:25] ---
    It's all thanks to your help, Iori and Reiji.
[20:29] ---
    Yeah, that's for sure.
[20:32] ---
    Thank you.
[20:33] ---
    No, I should thank you.
[20:37] ---
    When I saw your Beargguy III,
[20:39] ---
    I realized that you can build a Gunpla
    using your own inspiration.
[20:43] ---
    I was all caught up in Gundam's
    setting and worldview...
[20:47] ---
    And now I realize that.
[20:51] ---
    Seriously, thanks, Class Rep.
[20:54] ---
    Iori...
[20:58] ---
    I'm going!
[21:00] ---
    Wait! Where are you going?!
[21:03] ---
    Back to the store!
[21:04] ---
    I finally saw it. My own Gunpla!
[21:07] ---
    Wait. Hold on, Sei!
[21:21] ---
    Hello, Kousaka residence.
[21:23] ---
    China, what's going on?!
[21:25] ---
    Sei is even more caught up in
    Gunpla building than before!
[21:29] ---
    I think that's a good thing.
[21:31] ---
    Huh?
[21:32] ---
    He isn't troubled anymore.
    He's found his way out.
[21:35] ---
    Now he can move forward.
[21:37] ---
    What do you mean?
[21:39] ---
    I'm sure that Iori...
[21:43] ---
    ...is going to build a great Gunpla!
[21:49] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara

    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo

[21:57] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[22:11] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[22:18] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[22:22] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[22:28] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[22:32] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[22:38] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[22:40] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou

    focus on your dreams

[22:54] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke

    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...

[23:22] ---
    Oh, Mr. Ral.
[23:24] ---
    I finally finished my—
[23:25] ---
    Sei, Kaiser lost!
[23:28] ---
    What?!
[23:29] ---
    The last World Tournament champion?
[23:32] ---
    Yes.
[23:33] ---
    He was defeated in the
    Finnish qualifying tournament.
[23:38] ---
    H-How could...
[23:43] ---
    His opponent was...
[23:49] ---
    A young girl!
[23:54] ---
    Next Episode
[23:55] ---
    Reiji, it's finally started!
[23:57] ---
    No matter who our

[00:03] ---
    Oh, Greco.
[00:05] ---
    What? Hold on.
[00:11] ---
    He... He lost?
[00:14] ---
    The last World Tournament champion,
[00:17] ---
    Carlos Kaiser himself...!
[00:20] ---
    Who was the opponent?
[00:22] ---
    It was team Nemesis.
[00:24] ---
    Are you saying that Gawain won?
[00:26] ---
    No, not him.
[00:28] ---
    What?!
[00:30] ---
    The winner was a girl around my age?
[00:37] ---
    It serves that Kaiser right.
[00:40] ---
    Don't you agree, Brother?
[00:47] ---
    Kaiser lost...
[00:49] ---
    Does that mean my biggest
    obstacle is now eliminated?
[01:00] ---
    That can't be.
[01:01] ---
    Even with our information
    gathering capabilities,
[01:04] ---
    we don't know anything
    about Nemesis' top fighter.
[01:09] ---
    Who on earth is she?
[01:16] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[01:18] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[01:21] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[01:24] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide

    And create a bright rainbow up in the sky
    Kono sora ni azayaka na niji wo kakeyou

[01:40] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of
    Kore to itte torie mo nai

    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[01:47] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[01:51] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me
    Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku

[02:07] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[02:10] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[02:15] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[02:17] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[02:22] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[02:26] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai

    I will cover the powers that you lack

    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[02:44] ---
    Keep Out!
[02:55] ---
    Reiji!
[02:56] ---
    Keep Out!
[02:57] ---
    Are you alright, Reiji?!
[02:59] ---
    Hold on!
[03:00] ---
    Unbelievable...
[03:01] ---
    What?
[03:05] ---
    Sei has built an unbelievable Gunpla!
[03:13] ---
    Episode 10
    The World Tournament Begins
[03:17] ---
    Hello, everyone!
[03:20] ---
    Chosen as the image character for the
    Gunpla Championship World Tournament,
[03:24] ---
    I'm Kirara, the Gunpla idol!
[03:26] ---
    Kiraran!
[03:27] ---
    Hey Reiji, Miss Mihoshi's on TV!
[03:31] ---
    I'm not surprised.
[03:35] ---
    She's a woman who does
    what she says she'll do.
[03:38] ---
    Right now I'm in Shizuoka City,
    in Shizuoka Prefecture.
[03:42] ---
    I'm at the arena where tomorrow,
    the World Tournament will begin.
[03:48] ---
    This is the 7th World Tournament.
[03:51] ---
    More than 80 Gunpla fighters from
    68 countries will gather here,
[03:55] ---
    to fight exciting battles and
    strive for the championship!
[04:02] ---
    Let me briefly explain
    the tournament rules.
[04:06] ---
    The contestants will earn points
    through several kinds of battles,
[04:10] ---
    such as individual, team
    and endurance matches.
[04:15] ---
    The 16 fighters with the most points
    will advance to the final tournament,
[04:20] ---
    and attempt to become the champion!
[04:22] ---
    Sei and Reiji, Mr. Ral's here.
[04:26] ---
    Iori Models
[04:27] ---
    Thank you for picking us up
    and giving us a ride, Mr. Ral.
[04:28] ---
    Thank you for picking us up
    and giving us a ride, Mr. Ral.
[04:31] ---
    No problem at all.
[04:33] ---
    I was going to go watch the tournament anyway,
    starting with the opening ceremony.
[04:37] ---
    Mr. Ral,
[04:39] ---
    please take good care of them.
[04:43] ---
    Leave it to me, Mrs. Rinko.
[04:45] ---
    You two, do your best,
    so that you won't regret anything.
[04:49] ---
    Yeah.
[04:50] ---
    Count on me!
[04:51] ---
    Iori! Reiji!
[04:54] ---
    Class Rep!
[04:57] ---
    Iori...
[04:58] ---
    Here.
[05:00] ---
    Wow, cool!
[05:02] ---
    What's that?
[05:03] ---
    It's a charm.
[05:04] ---
    Here's one for you, too.
[05:06] ---
    I assume Sei's was the main one,
[05:09] ---
    but thanks.
[05:12] ---
    I'll catch up and go cheer for you.
[05:17] ---
    Thanks, Class Rep!
[05:25] ---
    This is it.
[05:27] ---
    Mine and Reiji's...
[05:30] ---
    Our World Tournament!
[05:37] ---
    This is the players' village
    where you'll stay.
[05:40] ---
    But by the 10th day of the tournament,
[05:42] ---
    70 percent of the fighters
    will be gone from here.
[05:50] ---
    May you two survive!
[05:58] ---
    What's with these clothes, Sei?
[06:00] ---
    I told you.
[06:02] ---
    PPSE, the organizer
    of the World Tournament,
[06:05] ---
    is having a reception party for
    the players and tournament staff.
[06:10] ---
    We've all been asked to dress up.
[06:12] ---
    A party?
[06:14] ---
    I don't like formal stuff.
[06:17] ---
    Just change already.
[06:22] ---
    If I do say so myself...
[06:25] ---
    This really doesn't suit me.
[06:28] ---
    Reiji, are you...
[06:36] ---
    Re...
[06:39] ---
    Reiji!
[06:45] ---
    Sorry, Sei.
[06:47] ---
    Your mom gave me some funds.
[06:50] ---
    I'm off to go wherever I like.
[06:59] ---
    Welcome, Mr. Sei Iori.
    Please go inside.
[07:02] ---
    Y-Yes. Thank you very much.
[07:10] ---
    W-Wow.
[07:13] ---
    Everybody here came from all over
    the world to play Gunpla Battle.
[07:20] ---
    Mr. Sei.
[07:22] ---
    Long time no see!
[07:24] ---
    Last time we met was at the beach.
[07:26] ---
    Mao!
[07:28] ---
    I can see it in your eyes.
[07:31] ---
    You've completed your Gunpla
    for the World Tournament, huh?
[07:35] ---
    Just wait and see.
[07:39] ---
    Oh!
[07:40] ---
    That's Luang Dallara!
[07:42] ---
    He's the Thai champion,
    and a World Tournament veteran.
[07:46] ---
    Yeah, I've seen him in magazines.
[07:49] ---
    Mr. Sei, look over there!
[07:52] ---
    It's Ricardo Fellini.
[07:54] ---
    The Italian Dandy.
[07:55] ---
    Wow, he's so good-looking!
[07:59] ---
    Hey, Sei Iori!
[08:02] ---
    He knows my name?!
[08:03] ---
    It's amazing, Mr. Sei!
[08:05] ---
    Ricardo Fellini knows who you are!
[08:10] ---
    Reiji isn't with you?
[08:13] ---
    Mr. Fellini, you know Reiji?
[08:16] ---
    I don't just know him,
[08:18] ---
    he put me through the wringer.
[08:21] ---
    Were you the one who
    gave Reiji his tough training?
[08:25] ---
    That was me.
[08:26] ---
    I didn't know!
[08:28] ---
    Thank you so much.
[08:30] ---
    I mean, he must bother you a lot.
[08:34] ---
    Doesn't he?
[08:35] ---
    Um... Not that much...
[08:39] ---
    I'm so sorry.
[08:41] ---
    H-Hi, I'm Mao Yasaka!
[08:46] ---
    I know you.
[08:47] ---
    You're a student of Master Chinan
    of the Gunpla Shingyo school, right?
[08:51] ---
    Do you know my master?
[08:53] ---
    Yeah, a little bit.
[08:56] ---
    Long time no see, Sei.
[09:02] ---
    Congratulations on making it
    to the World Tournament.
[09:07] ---
    Who's she?
[09:09] ---
    Sh-She's Kirara, the Gunpla idol.
[09:12] ---
    What? Oh yeah!
[09:14] ---
    You seem to be busy, Miss Mihoshi.
[09:17] ---
    Yeah, I saw you on TV!
[09:21] ---
    Yes, I must use this opportunity
    to become a top idol...
[09:27] ---
    What's your name, miss?
[09:29] ---
    Huh?
[09:31] ---
    Well... It's Kirara, but...
[09:35] ---
    What a charming name.
[09:41] ---
    Just like in Gunpla Battle,
    he's as fast as lightning.
[09:50] ---
    Excuse me, sir.
    Aila isn't in her room.
[09:55] ---
    Yes. I'll go search for her right now.
[10:06] ---
    Eel Restaurant
[10:09] ---
    Please come again.
[10:11] ---
    Ah, that was fantastic!
[10:14] ---
    Grilled eel on rice is so good.
[10:17] ---
    Alright, the next tasty dish
    that old man Ral told me about is...
[10:23] ---
    Baked Sweet-Sticks
[10:26] ---
    Excuse me, can I have some of
    those baked sweet-sticks?
[10:30] ---
    I'm sorry. We just sold out.
[10:35] ---
    Oh, man...
[10:36] ---
    Turtle Sweet Buns
[10:40] ---
    One turtle sweet bun, please!
[10:42] ---
    We're sold out today.
[10:45] ---
    Again?!
[10:47] ---
    Meat Buns
[10:53] ---
    Meat bun, please!
[10:53] ---
    One meat bun!
    Meat bun, please!
[11:00] ---
    Miss Kirara!
[11:02] ---
    Did you see that
    08th MS Team bonus video?
[11:07] ---
    That smooth animation must
    have used so many inbetweens!
[11:10] ---
    Don't you think? Yes?
[11:10] ---
    What? Um...
    Don't you think? Yes?
[11:12] ---
    Yeah, I guess.
[11:14] ---
    You think?
[11:18] ---
    Yes, it's amazing!
[11:20] ---
    I'm disillusioned.
[11:21] ---
    Yeah.
[11:27] ---
    Baked sweet-sticks and sweet buns?!
[11:29] ---
    So you're the one who's been
    buying all the food around here.
[11:33] ---
    Don't say it like that.
[11:35] ---
    Um... Excuse me.
[11:38] ---
    There are a lot of people
    here for the tournament,
[11:41] ---
    so there's only one left.
[11:43] ---
    Then give it to me!
    Then give it to me!
[11:47] ---
    Give it up!
[11:49] ---
    No, you give up.
[11:51] ---
    You've already had a lot!
[11:54] ---
    Don't you know it's "ladies first?"
[11:57] ---
    Men should respect the ladies.
[12:00] ---
    A lady? I don't see any here.
[12:03] ---
    Do you see any?
[12:04] ---
    Are you asking for a fight?
[12:07] ---
    I'm not asking, I'm insisting!
[12:10] ---
    Can't you keep your mouth shut?
[12:12] ---
    Why, you—!
[12:19] ---
    Wh-What?!
[12:20] ---
    Please pay here
[12:22] ---
    Keep the change!
[12:23] ---
    Come again.
[12:26] ---
    Y-You...!
[12:49] ---
    Who is that girl?
[13:01] ---
    You'll never keep up with me.
[13:11] ---
    You think you can get away from me?
[13:14] ---
    How?
[13:15] ---
    Just give me this...
[13:17] ---
    Keep off me!
[13:19] ---
    That's mine!
[13:21] ---
    No, it's mine!
[13:22] ---
    You've been eating the whole time!
[13:26] ---
    That's none of your business!
[13:54] ---
    What did you do, you idiot?!
[13:58] ---
    That's my line!
[14:00] ---
    Pay for it!
[14:01] ---
    Why should I...?
[14:14] ---
    Huh?
[14:16] ---
    Hey, wait.
[14:21] ---
    What's up with her?
[14:27] ---
    Who was that boy?
[14:29] ---
    I don't know.
[14:31] ---
    Don't act on your own
    during the tournament.
[14:35] ---
    Don't forget that
    a lot of money is invested in you.
[14:40] ---
    I understand.
[14:43] ---
    Where were you?
[14:44] ---
    I went out to grab a meal.
[14:48] ---
    Um... Care for some oden stew?
[14:52] ---
    I won't be fooled by that!
[14:54] ---
    Are you aware that tomorrow is
    the first day of the tournament?!
[15:02] ---
    Ladies and gentlemen,
    thank you for waiting.
[15:05] ---
    We will now begin the 7th Gunpla Battle
    Championship World Tournament.
[15:15] ---
    The first period is a
    four player knockout match.
[15:18] ---
    The winners will get four points.
[15:22] ---
    Where are Mr. Sei and Mr. Reiji...?
[15:28] ---
    I drank too much...
[15:30] ---
    So disillusioned.
[16:08] ---
    The winner of match one is
    Rainer Cziommer, representing Germany.
[16:12] ---
    He has earned four points.
[16:27] ---
    The winner of match three is,
[16:29] ---
    Luang Dallara, representing Thailand.
[16:40] ---
    The winner of match six is,
[16:42] ---
    Ricardo Fellini, representing Italy.
[16:48] ---
    We will now begin match seven.
[16:52] ---
    Finally, it's her turn.
[16:57] ---
    The fighter who defeated Carlos Kaiser.
[17:00] ---
    Let's see how good she is, Brother.
[17:05] ---
    We should fight together for now.
[17:07] ---
    Yeah, let's get that one first!
[17:09] ---
    Show us how strong you are.
    You, who defeated Kaiser!
[17:24] ---
    What happened?
[17:25] ---
    Funnels?
[17:28] ---
    I didn't see anything.
[17:31] ---
    That weapon is...
[17:33] ---
    The winner of match seven is,
[17:36] ---
    Aila Jyrkiäinen, representing Finland.
[17:41] ---
    So this is the power of Team Nemesis'
    prized fighter, Aila Jyrkiäinen.
[17:48] ---
    Up next, representing Japan,
    will be Sei Iori and Reiji,
[17:51] ---
    the winners of the 3rd Block qualifiers.
[17:54] ---
    Mrs. Rinko, it's Iori's and Reiji's turn.
[17:57] ---
    Okay.
[17:59] ---
    Finally, they show up!
[18:02] ---
    They're very late. They only have
    ten seconds till the match.
[18:06] ---
    Whoa, this is embarrassing!
[18:08] ---
    It must be Reiji's fault.
[18:10] ---
    Yeah.
[18:12] ---
    See, I told you yesterday!
[18:14] ---
    Just set the Gunpla! Hurry!
[18:18] ---
    That's Sei Iori's Gunpla.
[18:21] ---
    I can tell!
[18:23] ---
    Though it looks the same,
    it's completely different.
[18:28] ---
    Sei. Reiji.
[18:30] ---
    Let the world know...
[18:33] ---
    Show them your
    imagination and passion!
[18:38] ---
    Reiji, let's go!
[18:40] ---
    Okay!
[18:42] ---
    Battle start.
[18:45] ---
    Star Build Strike!
[18:47] ---
    Here we go!
[18:57] ---
    Take this!
[19:05] ---
    Gotcha!
[19:10] ---
    What?!
[19:11] ---
    It erased the beam?
[19:13] ---
    You're something, but how's this?!
[19:25] ---
    I knew it was new equipment!
[19:28] ---
    They sure amaze us.
[19:40] ---
    They did it!
[19:40] ---
    They did it!
    Star Build Strike has shot down Zaku F2000!
[19:41] ---
    Wow.
    Star Build Strike has shot down Zaku F2000!
[19:42] ---
    Star Build Strike has shot down Zaku F2000!
[19:44] ---
    I didn't know such a Gunpla existed.
[19:46] ---
    Who's the fighter?
[19:52] ---
    They're...
[19:54] ---
    From back then!
[19:58] ---
    Go, funnels!
[20:10] ---
    Darn, this is never ending.
    Sei, how's the charging?
[20:14] ---
    Ready to go at full power!
[20:17] ---
    Okay!
[20:31] ---
    This is our...!
[20:33] ---
    Gunpla!
[20:57] ---
    What performance...!
[21:12] ---
    These moves...
[21:15] ---
    Just like that time...
[21:25] ---
    Powerful.
[21:28] ---
    The winners of match thirteen are,
[21:31] ---
    Sei Iori and Reiji,
    representing Japan's 3rd Block.
[21:43] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[21:47] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[21:49] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[21:52] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[22:06] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[22:12] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[22:17] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[22:23] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[22:27] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[22:32] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[22:35] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[22:40] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[22:43] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[22:46] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[22:48] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[22:51] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni
[22:54] ---
    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[22:57] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[22:59] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[23:02] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,
    Mugen no chikara wo shinjitai kara
[23:07] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[23:09] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[23:14] ---
    Mr. Sei, congratulations!
    That was really amazing!
[23:17] ---
    Thank you.
[23:19] ---
    In the last match, PPSE's works team
    will finally make their appearance.
[23:24] ---
    What's PPSE?
[23:26] ---
    The company that makes
    the Gunpla Battle System.
[23:29] ---
    Meaning, this team knows
    all about the Plavsky particle.
[23:33] ---
    And the one who controls their Gunpla is...
[23:36] ---
    ...the Meijin.
[23:39] ---
    Meijin Kawaguchi!
[23:41] ---
    Meijin...
[23:42] ---
    Kawaguchi...?
[23:46] ---
    But that's...!
[23:48] ---
    Yu...
[23:50] ---
    Yuuki?!
[23:54] ---
    Next Episode
[23:56] ---
    In the second period,
    all players will fight at once!
[23:58] ---
    Next episode, "Battle Royal."
[24:00] ---
    We'll definitely survive, Sei!
[24:02] ---
    Next Episode
    Battle Royal
[24:02] ---
    We'll definitely survive, Sei!
[24:03] ---
    Mission accepted.

    Gunpla Battle World Tournament,
    last match of the first period.
[00:06] ---
    The legend is finally revived.
[00:09] ---
    The PPSE works team is here
    as the organizer's special entry.
[00:13] ---
    Their fighter is the third person
    to inherit the title of Meijin,
[00:16] ---
    the name once given to a man
    who was the god of Gunpla building.
[00:20] ---
    Meijin Kawaguchi!
[00:23] ---
    P-President Yuuki?
[00:25] ---
    What? China, do you know him?
[00:27] ---
    Y-Yes, I think so.
[00:31] ---
    But he bowed out of the qualifiers.
[00:34] ---
    Why is he at the World Tournament?
[00:39] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[00:41] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[00:44] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[00:47] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide
[00:51] ---
    And create a bright rainbow up in the sky
    Kono sora ni azayaka na niji wo kakeyou
[01:00] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
[01:03] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of
    Kore to itte torie mo nai
[01:06] ---
    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[01:10] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[01:14] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me
    Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku
[01:18] ---
    When I'm alone inside (Flash back)
    Kokoro no naka de hitori ni naru to (Flash back)
[01:20] ---
    I synchronize with you (Mash up)
    Nara shinkuro sasete (Mash up)
[01:22] ---
    With you, I feel confident (Right now)
    Kimi to nara dekisou sa (Right now)
[01:24] ---
    Ready set go!!
[01:25] ---
    From the minute I felt you in my heart
    Hitori janai tte omoeta toki kara
[01:30] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[01:33] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[01:38] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[01:40] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[01:45] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[01:49] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai
[01:53] ---
    I will cover the powers that you lack
    Chikara wo kasanete
[01:56] ---
    Let's fly away
    Tobitatsu yo…
[01:57] ---
    Don't stand still (Don't stop)
    Tachidomaruna (Don’t stop)
[01:59] ---
    I'll be there for you (Don't cry)
    Soba ni iru kara (Don’t cry)
[02:01] ---
    You're not alone anymore
    Kimi wa mou hitori janai!
[02:03] ---
    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[02:11] ---
    The Kӓmpfer Amazing.
[02:14] ---
    It's the first battle for this Gunpla,
[02:16] ---
    created with all the know-how of
    PPSE's technical development division.
[02:20] ---
    I'm hoping for battle results
    worthy of the Meijin title.
[02:23] ---
    There's no need to hope.
[02:32] ---
    For a Meijin, victory is the
    absolute minimum requirement.
[02:46] ---
    I don't care if you're
    the works team or not!
[02:51] ---
    So fast!
[02:56] ---
    Take this!
[03:14] ---
    Darn it!
[03:20] ---
    What?!
[03:20] ---
    What's that?!
[03:25] ---
    Battle ended.
[03:33] ---
    That was absolutely perfect!
[03:38] ---
    So that's the PPSE works team's...
[03:43] ---
    The Meijin's real power.
[03:46] ---
    I don't like him.
[03:48] ---
    He thinks he's so special.
[03:52] ---
    His strength is like a monster.
[03:55] ---
    He fights as if he only cares
    about being the champion.
[03:59] ---
    Reiji, how would you...?
[04:02] ---
    Hey! Where are you going?
[04:04] ---
    Mr. Sei! Mr. Reiji!
[04:08] ---
    No way.
[04:10] ---
    I didn't know he'd inherited
    the name of Kawaguchi.
[04:13] ---
    Sei. Reiji.
[04:16] ---
    This must be fate, too.
[04:20] ---
    Wait up!
[04:22] ---
    Huh? You're...
[04:25] ---
    You're Yuuki, right?
[04:29] ---
    Tell us if you're Tatsuya Yuuki or...
[04:33] ---
    No!
[04:35] ---
    I'm not Tatsuya Yuuki.
[04:38] ---
    I'm not the former council president
    of Seiho Academy High School,
[04:42] ---
    and I was never the captain of
    the model-building club.
[04:46] ---
    You know a lot about him, though.
[04:48] ---
    If not, then show us your face!
[04:57] ---
    Alright.
[04:58] ---
    Take a good look...
[05:01] ---
    ...at the man who inherited
    the Meijin's title.
[05:04] ---
    The face of Kawaguchi!
[05:13] ---
    I-I knew it.
[05:15] ---
    Episode 11
    Battle Royal
[05:21] ---
    He was Yuuki, alright.
[05:24] ---
    Yeah.
[05:25] ---
    That was definitely Tatsuya Yuuki.
[05:29] ---
    But why is he here?
[05:33] ---
    He bowed out in the middle.
[05:36] ---
    PPSE is this tournament's organizer.
[05:39] ---
    He's in this tournament
    as their special entry.
[05:44] ---
    He's going to be a tough foe.
[05:46] ---
    It's already amazing that his Gunpla...
[05:48] ---
    ...was made by the PPSE works team,
    who know all about Plavsky particles.
[05:52] ---
    On top of that, the fighter is Yuuki.
[05:57] ---
    And what's more, he's inherited
    the title of Meijin Kawaguchi.
[06:00] ---
    That name! Who's "Kawaguchi?"
    What's a "Meijin?"
[06:05] ---
    The Meijin is...
[06:10] ---
    Meijin Kawaguchi.
[06:12] ---
    About half a century ago,
    during the first Gunpla boom,
[06:17] ---
    he appeared like a comet,
    a legendary plastic model builder.
[06:22] ---
    His superior works were praised
    as being made by the hand of God.
[06:27] ---
    He was so esteemed that he
    was called a Meijin, a maestro.
[06:34] ---
    The third-generation Meijin Kawaguchi
    is a brilliant fighter,
[06:39] ---
    backed up by the PPSE works team
    with all their pride.
[06:47] ---
    According to information
    leaked by the organizer,
[06:50] ---
    tomorrow's second period is
    going to be a Battle Royal.
[06:55] ---
    I don't need advance information.
[06:57] ---
    Oh, come on. If it's a Battle Royal,
    everyone will be participating.
[07:01] ---
    You may fight against
    the team Nemesis fighter.
[07:08] ---
    Aila Jyrkiäinen.
[07:10] ---
    Of course, I don't doubt your victory.
[07:13] ---
    But our CEO, Mr. Mashita, will come
    to watch the tournament tomorrow.
[07:19] ---
    I want you to give it your best.
[07:22] ---
    A Meijin's objective is always victory.
[07:26] ---
    That's the spirit.
[07:27] ---
    I'm counting on you, Meijin.
[07:31] ---
    By the way,
[07:33] ---
    why did you show your face
    to Sei Iori and his friend?
[07:36] ---
    No idea.
[07:37] ---
    I must've been out of my mind.
[07:39] ---
    Alright. It's okay.
[07:51] ---
    It's tiring to act like a Meijin.
[07:58] ---
    Allan, I wanted to show
    Iori and Reiji my determination.
[08:04] ---
    As Meijin, I'll be the champion
    of this tournament no matter what.
[08:13] ---
    That was President Yuuki,
    just as I thought.
[08:16] ---
    Yeah. He denied it, but I'm sure.
[08:21] ---
    It was so obvious.
[08:24] ---
    You sound happy.
[08:26] ---
    Huh?
[08:28] ---
    Yeah.
[08:30] ---
    I may get to fight with Yuuki
    on a worldwide stage.
[08:36] ---
    I can find out how good my Gunpla is,
[08:40] ---
    and how far and high it can fly.
[08:43] ---
    I'm so excited.
[08:53] ---
    Someone there?
[08:55] ---
    I-I'm sorry.
[08:57] ---
    I was out shopping.
[08:59] ---
    Oh, you!
[09:01] ---
    You're...!
[09:03] ---
    What are you doing here?
[09:05] ---
    I could ask you the same thing!
    Get out of here.
[09:09] ---
    Only people involved in
    the tournament are—
[09:14] ---
    Huh?
[09:14] ---
    Hey, you...
[09:17] ---
    Come here.
[09:18] ---
    What?
[09:19] ---
    Hurry!
    What?
[09:26] ---
    What's going on?
[09:27] ---
    Be quiet for a moment.
[09:28] ---
    What?
[09:29] ---
    Please!
[09:49] ---
    What a wonderful scent.
[09:51] ---
    Wh-Wh-What are you saying?!
[09:55] ---
    Oh, it's this!
[10:01] ---
    What are you doing?!
[10:05] ---
    It's payback for last time.
[10:07] ---
    Bye!
[10:08] ---
    W-Wait!
[10:12] ---
    Money?
[10:14] ---
    With this much,
    you could buy four meat buns.
[10:21] ---
    I don't get him.
[10:29] ---
    Thank you for waiting.
[10:31] ---
    We'll now explain the second period
    of the World Tournament.
[10:38] ---
    In the second period,
    we'll use this huge field...
[10:42] ---
    ...for a Battle Royal with all 90 fighters.
[10:47] ---
    Wow!
[10:49] ---
    The battle ends when only
    one-third of the machines are left.
[10:52] ---
    Every fighter who survives
    will earn four points.
[10:57] ---
    We will now begin the second period.
[11:04] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[11:11] ---
    Star Build Strike!
[11:12] ---
    Let's go!
[11:17] ---
    All I have to do is to beat up
    every opponent I see, right?
[11:21] ---
    Yeah, but they're all strong.
[11:23] ---
    Be careful!
[11:25] ---
    Mr. Sei is right.
[11:27] ---
    It's dangerous to fight alone
    in this battle, so...
[11:31] ---
    How about fighting together?
[11:33] ---
    Yeah, let's!
[11:35] ---
    Watch out!
[11:37] ---
    Who did that?!
[11:40] ---
    That Gunpla is...!
[11:42] ---
    The Abigorbine!
[11:53] ---
    It's Luang Dallara,
    the Thai champion!
[12:01] ---
    That Gunpla must be the one
    that erased the beam.
[12:07] ---
    Let's go!
[12:08] ---
    Reiji?!
[12:09] ---
    That's reckless!
[12:18] ---
    Use the shield!
[12:19] ---
    Okay!
[12:22] ---
    As I thought, it erased my beam, but...!
[12:29] ---
    He fired missiles at
    the same time as the beam!
[12:35] ---
    Mr. Reiji!
[12:44] ---
    With one look, he saw
    the weak point of our Absorb Shield!
[12:55] ---
    Too much chasing is a bad idea.
[13:00] ---
    He's a tough opponent.
[13:03] ---
    Where are Mr. Sei and Mr. Reiji?
[13:39] ---
    Gotcha!
[13:39] ---
    Gotcha!
    Gotcha!
[14:16] ---
    Too strong!
[14:22] ---
    The second period is a Battle Royal.
[14:25] ---
    I don't have to fight needlessly
    and give away my tactics...
[14:39] ---
    Mustn't lower my guard.
[14:50] ---
    Let's cooperate for now and
    beat one of the top contenders!
[14:54] ---
    Fire, fire, fire!
[15:01] ---
    I can tell what you're thinking!
[15:14] ---
    How's my smart fighting technique?
[15:17] ---
    Did you see that, Kirara?
[15:19] ---
    Above you!
[15:25] ---
    That's one heck of a welcome!
[15:28] ---
    Who did that?
[15:31] ---
    Th-That's...
[15:47] ---
    A Gaw attack carrier!
[15:50] ---
    I found you, Ricardo Fellini!
[15:53] ---
    Cziommer of Germany.
[15:55] ---
    Wasn't it hard building that?
[15:57] ---
    In order to beat you,
    I poured all my energy into this.
[16:03] ---
    I'll... I'll...!
[16:07] ---
    I'll get my revenge on you
    for stealing my girlfriend last year!
[16:13] ---
    Wait, she came to me!
[16:16] ---
    That's not true!
[16:23] ---
    How is it, Sei?
[16:24] ---
    It's okay, the damage isn't too bad.
[16:27] ---
    But we can't use the Absorb Shield now.
    One discharge is the limit.
[16:31] ---
    Keep that in mind.
[16:32] ---
    Okay!
[16:35] ---
    What's that?
[16:36] ---
    It's a Gaw attack carrier!
[16:39] ---
    Who's it fighting against?
[16:43] ---
    That Gunpla is...
[16:45] ---
    The Wing Gundam Fenice!
[16:52] ---
    I told you, it was her
    who came to me!
[16:55] ---
    You should've turned her down!
[16:58] ---
    It's my policy to keep
    my door open to everyone!
[17:02] ---
    Don't let him attack, Gengaozo!
[17:10] ---
    Blame this on your own policy.
[17:14] ---
    Let's go, guys!
[17:17] ---
    This is an alliance of those
    who share the same scars!
[17:19] ---
    Let's get revenge on him and
    go on to the next stage!
[17:22] ---
    Yeah!
    Yeah!
[17:29] ---
    Are you serious?!
[17:30] ---
    Fellini, prepare yourself!
    Fellini, prepare yourself!
[17:43] ---
    Brother!
    Brother!
[17:46] ---
    What? Where was that from?!
[17:48] ---
    Darn it!
    Darn it!
[17:53] ---
    That Gunpla is...
[17:55] ---
    ...the Star Build Strike!
[18:01] ---
    What are you doing, Reiji?
[18:03] ---
    If I get beaten, it'll benefit you later.
[18:07] ---
    I don't want you to retire here.
[18:10] ---
    I want a one-on-one battle with you!
[18:14] ---
    That's nice to hear!
[18:39] ---
    I've been expecting you, Chairman.
[18:41] ---
    Hello!
[18:44] ---
    How's the Meijin doing?
[18:47] ---
    He's so strong that
    opponents won't go near him.
[18:51] ---
    Being too strong is also a problem.
[18:54] ---
    But this proves PPSE's superiority
    in the field of Gunpla technology.
[18:59] ---
    I know, I know.
[19:01] ---
    I'm happy to have such
    excellent employees.
[19:06] ---
    Thank you, sir.
[19:09] ---
    What's going on?
[19:23] ---
    Nice and extravagant.
[19:26] ---
    Gunpla Battle should be like this!
[19:37] ---
    Wh-What the heck...?
[19:39] ---
    Why...?
[19:42] ---
    Why is he in this world?!
[19:47] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[19:50] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[19:53] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[19:55] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[20:09] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[20:15] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[20:20] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[20:26] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[20:30] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[20:35] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[20:38] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[20:43] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[20:46] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[20:49] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[20:52] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[20:54] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni
[20:57] ---
    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[21:00] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[21:02] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[21:05] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,
    Mugen no chikara wo shinjitai kara
[21:10] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[21:13] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[21:21] ---
    It's fast!
[21:27] ---
    I won't let anybody get in our way!
[21:42] ---
    How sad, Fellini.
[21:45] ---
    I'll go ahead and crush you!
[22:00] ---
    Darn!
[22:14] ---
    The buster rifle...!
[22:15] ---
    Don't underestimate my Gaw!
[22:21] ---
    Mr. Fellini!
[22:22] ---
    Darn!
[22:43] ---
    It can't be!!!
[22:48] ---
    Cziommer!
[22:56] ---
    I barely made it.
[22:58] ---
    Mao!
[23:00] ---
    I owe you for this.
[23:03] ---
    Please be sure to pay me back.
[23:12] ---
    Wh-Why is the ground shaking?
[23:34] ---
    Th-That's...
[23:42] ---
    That Gunpla is...!
[23:55] ---
    Next Episode
[23:56] ---
    What's that huge machine?
[23:58] ---
    Reiji, we've got no choice but to use "that."

[00:03] ---
    You're not alone
    Hitori janai
[00:05] ---
    You and I have this bond between us
    Bokura tsunagatteru kara
[00:08] ---
    That bond has made me want to take a step forward
    Asu e to fumidashitaku nattanda
[00:11] ---
    Let's link the colors of our dreams
    Sorezore no yume no iro wo tsunaide
[00:15] ---
    And create a bright rainbow up in the sky
    Kono sora ni azayaka na niji wo kakeyou
[00:24] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
[00:26] ---
    I don't have any merits to speak of
    Kore to itte torie mo nai
[00:30] ---
    I always felt inferior, I had no confidence
    Rettoukan to aruite jishin datte nai
[00:34] ---
    "What's so fun about that?" you asked,
    "Tte yuu ka sore de tanoshii no?" tte
[00:38] ---
    As you smiled and ran ahead of me
    Kimi wa waratte boku wo oikoshiteku
[00:42] ---
    When I'm alone inside (Flash back)
    Kokoro no naka de hitori ni naru to (Flash back)
[00:44] ---
    I synchronize with you (Mash up)
    Nara shinkuro sasete (Mash up)
[00:46] ---
    With you, I feel confident (Right now)
    Kimi to nara dekisou sa (Right now)
[00:48] ---
    Ready set go!!
[00:49] ---
    From the minute I felt you in my heart
    Hitori janai tte omoeta toki kara
[00:54] ---
    I was sure my dream would come true
    Kanaeraresou na ki ga shitanda
[00:57] ---
    With that same smile you always had,
    Kawaranai itsumo no egao no mama de
[01:01] ---
    You firmly took my hand
    Kimi wa boku no te wo tsukande
[01:04] ---
    With you, nothing is impossible
    Futari nara fukanou nante nai sa
[01:09] ---
    You're the one who made me feel this way
    Sou omoeta no wa kimi ga ita kara
[01:12] ---
    You make up for the strength that I lack
    Boku ni nai tsuyosa to kimi ga motte nai
[01:17] ---
    I will cover the powers that you lack
    Chikara wo kasanete
[01:20] ---
    Let's fly away
    Tobitatsu yo…
[01:21] ---
    Don't stand still (Don't stop)
    Tachidomaruna (Don’t stop)
[01:23] ---
    I'll be there for you (Don't cry)
    Soba ni iru kara (Don’t cry)
[01:25] ---
    You're not alone anymore
    Kimi wa mou hitori janai!
[01:26] ---
    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[01:38] ---
    Oh, no!
[01:39] ---
    I can't believe I forgot
    to set my alarm clock.
[01:43] ---
    In the middle of a fight,
    Ral forgot to fight.
[01:50] ---
    Oh! No matter how many times I see it,
[01:53] ---
    PPSE's giant battle system
    is still overwhelming.
[01:59] ---
    Good, Sei and Reiji
    are still fighting.
[02:04] ---
    Huh? That's...!
[02:10] ---
    What's that huge Gunpla?
[02:16] ---
    N-No way.
[02:21] ---
    Why...?
[02:29] ---
    Hey Sei,
[02:31] ---
    what is that?
[02:34] ---
    That big thing?
[02:41] ---
    Chairman, as you requested,
[02:44] ---
    we sent an auto-controlled
    Gunpla into the battlefield.
[02:48] ---
    Thanks, babe.
[02:50] ---
    Also, we've found out the name of
    the Star Build Strike's fighter.
[02:55] ---
    It's not a full name,
    but he's registered as "Reiji."
[03:00] ---
    A-Alright.
[03:03] ---
    His name's the same, too.
[03:05] ---
    As I thought, Arian is...
[03:09] ---
    No, it can't be.
[03:11] ---
    Although, if it were...!
[03:15] ---
    Episode 12
    Discharge
[03:22] ---
    Th-That looks like a 1/48
    Mega Size Model Zaku.
[03:29] ---
    What the heck's going on?
[03:42] ---
    Wh-Why?
[03:44] ---
    There was no Gunpla like that
    when the battle started.
[03:47] ---
    Somebody changed his machine?
[03:49] ---
    I can't believe...
[03:50] ---
    It's moving!
[04:07] ---
    Mao!
[04:14] ---
    Oh no!
[04:15] ---
    Run!
[04:22] ---
    The size of that explosion...
[04:27] ---
    It's a Mega Size?!
[04:30] ---
    I see. That Gunpla is
    an unmanned machine,
[04:34] ---
    stored in the battle system
    for playing against the computer.
[04:38] ---
    And it's been activated...?!
[04:44] ---
    But why?
[04:45] ---
    Who did this?!
[04:48] ---
    What happened, Kawaguchi?
[04:53] ---
    A Mega Size...?
[04:55] ---
    Chairman, an unmanned Zaku
    is running wild in the field.
[04:59] ---
    We should tell them to
    stop the battle at—
[05:01] ---
    No need for that.
[05:03] ---
    What?
[05:04] ---
    This makes it more fun. That's all.
[05:07] ---
    N-No... Did you send out that Zaku?
[05:11] ---
    Can't I?
[05:13] ---
    Gunpla fans all over the world are
    enjoying this tournament.
[05:18] ---
    We should make it extravagant.
[05:21] ---
    Right?!
[05:28] ---
    The organizers have sent a large
    unmanned Gunpla into the battlefield.
[05:35] ---
    To avoid facing it,
[05:37] ---
    we're changing our plans
    to land on the ground. Stay put.
[05:41] ---
    Roger that.
[05:44] ---
    Oh, man. This is insane.
[05:48] ---
    Let's get away too, Brother.
[05:52] ---
    We don't want to get involved in this.
[05:59] ---
    Apparently, the large Gunpla
    that was just sent out...
[06:02] ---
    ...is a surprise event
    prepared by the organizers!
[06:06] ---
    What happens now?
[06:07] ---
    I-I don't know.
[06:10] ---
    But that big Gunpla looks like
    it's after Iori's Gunpla.
[06:23] ---
    Darn!
[06:24] ---
    It's aiming for us, all right!
[06:30] ---
    Mr. Sei? What are you doing?!
[06:33] ---
    Get away! That Zaku has
    nothing to do with the battle.
[06:36] ---
    You don't have to fight it!
[06:37] ---
    I know, but...
[06:39] ---
    It's persistent!
[06:53] ---
    You...! That's enough!
[06:58] ---
    Good, good!
[07:01] ---
    What's that mecha called again?
[07:03] ---
    It's the MS-06F Zaku II.
[07:06] ---
    Yeah, yeah. Zaku, Zaku.
[07:08] ---
    Go for it, Zaku!
[07:19] ---
    Sei, what do we do?
[07:22] ---
    Should we discharge and escape?
[07:23] ---
    Is that what you want?
[07:27] ---
    No!
[07:28] ---
    Me, either. I can't stand this nonsense!
[07:33] ---
    That's the spirit!
[07:34] ---
    My partner!
[07:46] ---
    Mr. Reiji?!
[07:46] ---
    Darn you!
[07:48] ---
    Reiji, aim for the joints!
[07:50] ---
    Alright!
[07:59] ---
    Here's some more!
[08:05] ---
    No way...
[08:07] ---
    They're fighting it?
[08:11] ---
    But survival is the priority
    in a Battle Royal.
[08:15] ---
    Why are they risking it for nothing?
[08:18] ---
    They're fools...
[08:21] ---
    They're just like Don Quixote
    attacking the windmill.
[08:25] ---
    But why...?
[08:28] ---
    It's obvious.
[08:32] ---
    Because they're fighters!
[08:37] ---
    If long range is no good...
[08:42] ---
    We'll go in closer!
[08:47] ---
    A cracker?!
[09:03] ---
    Iori!
[09:13] ---
    Fellini! Mao!
[09:16] ---
    I can't leave you guys alone.
[09:18] ---
    I'm returning your favor!
[09:20] ---
    Get out of my way!
[09:22] ---
    What?!
[09:24] ---
    Who do you think I am?
[09:42] ---
    Kawaguchi, what are you doing?
[09:44] ---
    Destroying the Zaku!
[09:45] ---
    You don't have to join in
    Chairman Mashita's game.
[09:48] ---
    But...!
[09:49] ---
    Our only goal is the championship.
[09:53] ---
    Don't forget your position.
[10:00] ---
    I know...
[10:03] ---
    A combined attack!

    Aim for the head!
[10:17] ---
    Yes!
[10:25] ---
    Not yet!
[10:26] ---
    Then...!
[10:29] ---
    Reiji, discharge!
[10:31] ---
    Got it!
[10:35] ---
    Put all the particles into one shot!
[10:46] ---
    No you don't!
[10:57] ---
    Mao!
[10:57] ---
    Fellini!
[11:06] ---
    No!
[11:17] ---
    That machine...

    Not yet!

    focus on your dreams

    Take this!!!
[11:45] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...

    ...were fading away

    move forward with more strength

    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves

[12:18] ---
    This is...
    This is...
[12:19] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[12:19] ---
    ...our Gunpla's power!
    ...our Gunpla's power!
[12:20] ---
    ...our Gunpla's power!
    ...our Gunpla's power!
[12:20] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[12:22] ---
    ...our Gunpla's power!
    ...our Gunpla's power!
[12:28] ---
    Destroyed!
[12:29] ---
    The Mega Size Zaku has
    finally been laid to rest!
[12:33] ---
    Sei and Reiji did it!
[12:35] ---
    Yeah!
[12:39] ---
    Oh, are they finally down to
    the required number of fighters?
[12:43] ---
    The buzzer for the end of
    the second period has sounded!
[12:51] ---
    Iori's Gunpla...
[12:53] ---
    I hope it's okay.
[12:58] ---
    How is it, Sei?
[12:59] ---
    It's fine. We have a spare shield.
[13:02] ---
    With this amount of damage,
    I can fix it in one night.
[13:06] ---
    Okay. I'm counting on you.
[13:08] ---
    I know, believe me.
[13:11] ---
    Mao.
[13:12] ---
    So how's yours?
[13:14] ---
    I also have a spare satellite cannon,
    so I can repair it quickly.
[13:18] ---
    Mr. Fellini told me that
    his isn't that bad, either.
[13:22] ---
    That's good to hear.
[13:26] ---
    It seems like their Gunpla are alright.
[13:31] ---
    But even as a surprise event,
[13:34] ---
    I can't believe they sent
    a Mega Size Gunpla into the battle.
[13:39] ---
    Besides, that Zaku...
[13:41] ---
    ...seemed like it was only after
    Sei's and Reiji's Star Build Strike.
[13:47] ---
    I might be over-thinking it, but...
[13:51] ---
    ...I still feel somewhat uneasy.
[14:04] ---
    What do you want?
[14:06] ---
    Ricardo Fellini.
[14:09] ---
    I wanted to thank you, Nils Nielsen.
[14:17] ---
    Thanks for your help.
[14:19] ---
    Grazie, Samurai Boy.
[14:25] ---
    No need to thank me.
[14:27] ---
    I wasn't helping you guys.
    I just prolonged the battle,
[14:31] ---
    in order to study
    the performance of your Gunpla.
[14:36] ---
    So, was it worth it?
[14:39] ---
    It was worth it.
[14:41] ---
    Especially the features and performance...
[14:43] ---
    ...of the Star Build
    Strike built by Sei Iori.
[14:47] ---
    Its shield doesn't erase
    the beams fired by an opponent.
[14:53] ---
    When the shield is deployed,
[14:54] ---
    it alters the beam particles
    and absorbs them into its body.
[14:59] ---
    It's the only explanation
    for the huge particle emission...
[15:04] ---
    ...in that last attack
    that destroyed the Zaku.
[15:09] ---
    But now that I understand
    the theory, I can prepare for it.
[15:14] ---
    If I face him in the next round,
    my victory will be rock-solid.
[15:21] ---
    "Rock-solid?"
[15:23] ---
    You think you're so smart.
[15:26] ---
    Come on, be honest.
[15:28] ---
    After seeing that battle,
    your heart is raging, right?
[15:41] ---
    Fighter registry name is "Reiji."
[15:45] ---
    It's the same name...
[15:46] ---
    And considering what age he would be now,
    this is how he would look.
[15:50] ---
    The resemblance is too strong
    to be a coincidence.
[15:55] ---
    But if so, why hasn't he
    done anything to me?
[16:00] ---
    Am I over-thinking it?
[16:02] ---
    Please stop!
[16:04] ---
    You can't see the Chairman
    without an appointment!
[16:07] ---
    I said, out of my way.
[16:10] ---
    Excuse me!
[16:13] ---
    My, my! Nice to see you,
    Meijin Kawaguchi.
[16:18] ---
    I hear you're doing a great job.
[16:20] ---
    What brings you here?
[16:22] ---
    Chairman Mashita.
[16:24] ---
    Even if you are the tournament organizer,
[16:27] ---
    please refrain from selfish actions.
[16:29] ---
    What actions?
[16:31] ---
    Oh, that Zaku?
[16:34] ---
    That was good, wasn't it?
[16:35] ---
    Thanks to that surprise,
[16:37] ---
    the TV broadcast ratings
    went up like crazy, you know.
[16:41] ---
    The sponsors were delighted, too.
[16:44] ---
    Next time, your performance
    should make the fans roar like that.
[16:48] ---
    Got it?
[16:50] ---
    It-It hurts!
[16:52] ---
    The Chairman's arm hurts!
[16:54] ---
    Please refrain from selfish actions.
[16:57] ---
    Meijin, that's enough!
[17:01] ---
    Chairman, please refrain from—
[17:04] ---
    Okay, okay. I won't do it anymore!
[17:07] ---
    Very well.
[17:12] ---
    Sorry for interrupting. Excuse me.
[17:15] ---
    Ouch!
    Are you alright, Chairman?
[17:17] ---
    My arm hurts!
    Please make this pain fly away!
[17:24] ---
    Pain, pain, fly away!
[17:28] ---
    I feel great now!
[17:30] ---
    Oh, man...
[17:32] ---
    Chairman Mashita can be
    such a troublemaker.
[17:35] ---
    He's so disrespectful.
[17:37] ---
    I can't stand such selfish actions.
[17:40] ---
    But you're selfish, too.
[17:42] ---
    What do you mean?
[17:44] ---
    Don't play dumb with me.
[17:46] ---
    When the Mega Size Zaku
    was running wild...
[17:50] ---
    You helped them, right?
[17:55] ---
    Using your long range sniper rifle.
[18:00] ---
    I could tell by looking at the beam.
[18:02] ---
    After all, I designed that rifle myself.
[18:07] ---
    Then let me say...
[18:09] ---
    What's the value of winning
    by defeating a damaged Gunpla?
[18:14] ---
    It's not enough just to win.
[18:17] ---
    A Meijin should crush opponents
    when they're at their best.
[18:24] ---
    In order to prove that,
    I won't budge an inch.
[18:35] ---
    Sei, it's dinner time.
[18:37] ---
    I'm gonna keep working.
[18:39] ---
    Reiji, are you going out
    for snacks again tonight?
[18:43] ---
    When you go to the store,
    get me something, too.
[18:45] ---
    Gotcha!
[18:55] ---
    The Absorb System, which alters
    and absorbs enemy particle beams...
[19:05] ---
    Not only does Mr. Luang know its secret,
[19:07] ---
    but I should assume that
    other fighters already know, too.
[19:12] ---
    Also about the Discharge System,
    which releases all the absorbed particles.
[19:19] ---
    Depending on the situation,
    we may have to use...
[19:23] ---
    ...the third system after the
    Absorb System and Discharge System.
[19:37] ---
    Thank you.
[19:46] ---
    What's this? Meat buns?
[19:50] ---
    You gave me too much money last time.
[19:53] ---
    I'm making up the difference.
[19:55] ---
    You...?
[19:57] ---
    You were waiting for me
    this whole time, just for this?
[20:01] ---
    I didn't want to keep on owing you.
[20:04] ---
    So I paid you back right away.
[20:09] ---
    Huh? What?
[20:11] ---
    I don't want them.
    They're cold already.
[20:14] ---
    It's not my fault. I didn't know
    when you were coming!
[20:17] ---
    So who asked you to wait?
[20:21] ---
    Take them!
[20:22] ---
    I don't want 'em.
[20:23] ---
    But I want to pay you back!
[20:37] ---
    Look at them.
[20:39] ---
    What are you kids flirting about?
[20:41] ---
    "No, we can't do it here."
[20:46] ---
    What did you say, you idiot?!
[20:50] ---
    Eh?
[20:51] ---
    Who do you think you're talking to?
[20:55] ---
    Hey, do you mind?
[21:01] ---
    Oh, man.
[21:03] ---
    Stop trying to show off
    in front of your girlfriend, kid!
[21:16] ---

[21:39] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[21:45] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[21:50] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[21:56] ---
    ...were fading away

    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air

    Chairman.
[22:50] ---
    Why are you so concerned
    about that boy Reiji?
[22:56] ---
    Do I have to tell you why?
[22:59] ---
    If you don't want to, that's fine.
[23:02] ---
    I'll just do as you say.
[23:04] ---
    Then do that.
[23:06] ---
    So, how's it going?
[23:09] ---
    As you requested,
[23:11] ---
    I've set up Sei Iori's and Reiji's
    opponent for the upcoming third period.
[23:19] ---
    Their opponent is the Thai champion,
[23:23] ---
    Luang Dallara.
[23:26] ---
    Their defeat is inevitable.
[23:31] ---
    This boy can't be the prince.
[23:36] ---
    But it's a real eyesore to have
    a boy with that face around here.
[23:54] ---
    Next Episode
[23:56] ---
    We fight Luang Dallara,
    a tough opponent.
[23:58] ---
    Sei, what the heck is this weapon?
[24:00] ---

    Reiji, I'm off to pick up the Class Rep.
[00:09] ---
    We'll meet at the park
    in front of the arena at ten o'clock.
[00:11] ---
    Okay, okay.
[00:15] ---
    See ya.
[00:22] ---
    Hey, what are you—
[00:24] ---
    Whatever, just go already.
[00:26] ---
    Don't order me around!
[00:28] ---
    You're in my way.
[00:31] ---
    You think you're a knight?!
[00:33] ---
    Darn kid!
[00:42] ---
    Just you wait...
[00:46] ---
    I'm coming full-on.
[00:55] ---
    This... is nothing.

    You're not alone

    Everything's gonna be alright!! (Alright)
[02:33] ---
    Iori, Mr. Ral, thanks for picking me up.
[02:37] ---
    Thank you for coming over.
[02:40] ---
    You're staying with relatives, right?
[02:43] ---
    Is it far from here?
[02:44] ---
    It's about 20 minutes by car.
[02:47] ---
    So I can be there every day
    to cheer you on.
[02:51] ---
    That's really nice,
    but you don't have to.
[02:54] ---
    You don't want me there?
[02:56] ---
    What? No!
[02:58] ---
    It's just I thought there'd be
    other places you'd want to go.
[03:03] ---
    Well, now that you mention it...
[03:06] ---
    No, please wait.
    Hold on, Class Rep!
[03:11] ---
    I feel all itchy.
[03:13] ---
    I somehow feel this itchiness
    right down to my bottom.
[03:16] ---
    What's wrong?
[03:18] ---
    Is it hemorrhoids?
[03:19] ---
    No it's not!
[03:21] ---
    Episode 13
    Battle Weapon
[03:28] ---
    Why is Sei so late?
[03:31] ---
    The three of them better not be off
    eating something yummy.
[03:40] ---
    I'm starving.
[03:49] ---
    Hey.
[03:52] ---
    Is your wrist okay?
[03:54] ---
    I'm not that fragile.
[03:59] ---
    True, you seem pretty insensitive.
[04:02] ---
    Did you come here to pick a fight?
[04:04] ---
    I was worried about you.
[04:06] ---
    Worried? You?
[04:09] ---
    I'm telling you.
[04:12] ---
    I'd have beaten those guys on my own.
[04:17] ---
    But you just had to show off and
    fight them by yourself.
[04:23] ---
    I'm not gonna let a girl fight.
[04:25] ---
    Allowing that would be
    a matter of family dignity.
[04:28] ---
    Our honor would be harmed.
[04:30] ---
    What are you talking about?
[04:32] ---
    Nothing.
[04:46] ---
    Th-Thank you for yesterday!
[04:48] ---
    Huh?
[04:49] ---
    I forgot to tell you.
[04:51] ---
    That's all!
[04:57] ---
    What's up with her?
[04:59] ---
    She's such a weird girl.
[05:02] ---
    Do you know her?
[05:04] ---
    Nope.
[05:07] ---
    Reiji.
[05:08] ---
    Hey, what took you so long?
[05:11] ---
    So, who was that just now?
[05:13] ---
    Just now?
[05:15] ---
    Ah, that was...
[05:17] ---
    Darn, I don't even know her name.
[05:20] ---
    Oh, come on. Spill it out.
[05:22] ---
    My bottom feels all itchy again.
[05:25] ---
    I feel bad for you.
[05:28] ---
    Surely, it must be hemorrhoids.
[05:29] ---
    No it's not!
[05:50] ---
    You're late, Aila.
[05:54] ---
    I'm deeply sorry.
[06:02] ---
    What a crowd...
[06:04] ---
    It's not just this arena.
[06:06] ---
    Gunpla fans around the world
    are watching the live broadcast.
[06:14] ---
    Thank you for waiting!
[06:16] ---
    We will now explain the third period
    of the World Tournament!
[06:21] ---
    The third period is
    an Original Weapon Battle.
[06:25] ---
    Using only the weapons decided by lot,
[06:27] ---
    they'll fight in one-on-one battles.
[06:31] ---
    By lot?
[06:32] ---
    The drawn weapons will be placed in
    containers set up in the battlefield.
[06:38] ---
    We won't know what the weapons are
    until the containers are opened.
[06:44] ---
    This battle requires the skill...
[06:46] ---
    ...to instantly understand
    the weapon and how to control it.
[06:51] ---
    Choosing weapons by lot, eh? Interesting.
[06:55] ---
    What if you draw a useless weapon?
[06:58] ---
    Then you'd have to deal with it
    using your wit and resourcefulness.
[07:02] ---
    Would all the fighters
    please come up to the stage?
[07:08] ---
    Drawing lots?
[07:10] ---
    You've got to be kidding me.
    So ridiculous.
[07:15] ---
    All those Gunpla...
[07:18] ---
    ...and these Gunpla Battles, too.
[07:22] ---
    We will now begin drawing lots.
[07:25] ---
    Ricardo Fellini, representing Italy.
[07:34] ---
    Weapon number 23.
[07:37] ---
    Nils Nielsen, representing America.
[07:41] ---
    Weapon number 47.
[07:43] ---
    Mao Yasaka, representing Japan's 5th Block.
[07:47] ---
    Weapon number 7.
[07:50] ---
    Aila Jyrkiäinen, representing Finland.
[07:53] ---
    Weapon number 16.
[07:55] ---
    Meijin Kawaguchi, PPSE's special entry.
[08:00] ---
    Weapon number 1.
[08:06] ---
    Sei and Reiji are up next.
[08:11] ---
    I hope they draw a good one.
[08:19] ---
    This looks fun. Let me...
[08:26] ---
    Sei, you do it.
[08:27] ---
    What's up?
[08:29] ---
    Just do it.
[08:32] ---
    Sei Iori and Reiji,
    representing Japan's 3rd Block.
[08:38] ---
    Weapon number 44.
[08:41] ---
    44...
[08:42] ---
    An unlucky number.
[08:45] ---
    I've got a bad feeling about this.
[08:48] ---
    All fighters have drawn!
[08:52] ---
    We'll begin the third period battles
    according to the weapon numbers!
[08:57] ---
    Our number is 44,
[09:00] ---
    so our opponent is
    the fighter with number 43.
[09:04] ---
    He's the one.
[09:07] ---
    Mr. Luang Dallara.
[09:11] ---
    He instantly saw the weak point of
    the Star Build Strike's Absorb Shield.
[09:15] ---
    He's a World Tournament veteran.
[09:20] ---
    The guy from that one time!
[09:22] ---
    Huh?
[09:27] ---
    Mr. Sei, Mr. Reiji,
[09:31] ---
    I've been watching you guys closely!
[09:35] ---
    Creative ideas, the skill to give them form,
[09:40] ---
    and great control sense.
[09:43] ---
    Really impressive!
[09:46] ---
    Let's battle it out
    so that we leave no regrets.
[09:50] ---
    Y-Yes, let's do it.
[09:56] ---
    But, hey.
[09:57] ---
    Eh?
[09:58] ---
    We're the ones who are going to win.
[10:02] ---
    That's the spirit.
[10:04] ---
    I want to fight you at your best.
[10:11] ---
    Sei Iori and Reiji.
[10:14] ---
    You're about to be utterly defeated...
[10:19] ---
    ...by my perfect plan,
[10:22] ---
    and Mr. Luang's hidden talent.
[10:29] ---
    We now begin match one
    of the third period.
[10:36] ---
    I see the container.
[10:37] ---
    I'll retrieve it.
[10:46] ---
    Tonfas, huh.
[10:53] ---
    With this railgun,
    even the Meijin will...!
[11:13] ---
    Whatever great weapon you have,
[11:16] ---
    it's pointless if you can't use it.
[11:24] ---
    A spray gun...
[11:29] ---
    Bad luck!
[11:45] ---
    The rules never said you couldn't
    take your opponent's weapon.
[11:55] ---
    Aila, the shield won't hold any longer.
[11:59] ---
    Aila!
[12:08] ---
    What?!
[12:17] ---
    I won.
[12:26] ---
    Gotcha!
[12:37] ---
    Sorry.
[12:52] ---
    Thanks for waiting.
[12:54] ---
    Fellini! With this WaDom,
    I'll finish you off at last.
[13:00] ---
    It's tiny!
[13:05] ---
    I feel bad for you.
[13:08] ---
    Those scissors won't cut
    through this WaDom!
[13:17] ---
    Easy peasy.
[13:21] ---
    You're using the scissors
    the wrong way!
[13:29] ---
    It's Iori's and Reiji's turn next.
[13:31] ---
    Their opponent is Luang Dallara,
    the Thai champion.
[13:37] ---
    Is he strong?
[13:40] ---
    He's like Char Aznable,
    Johnny Ridden, or Anavel Gato.
[13:47] ---
    What does that mean?
[13:49] ---
    It means his abilities are
    in the ace pilot class.
[13:55] ---
    Let's go, Reiji.
[13:56] ---
    Heck yeah.
[14:00] ---
    Battle start.
[14:02] ---
    Star Build Strike.
[14:03] ---
    Here we come!
[14:05] ---
    Abigorbine, go!
[14:18] ---
    What's this?
[14:20] ---
    A glove and balls?
[14:23] ---
    How are we supposed to
    fight with these?
[14:28] ---
    I mean, are these even weapons?
[14:34] ---
    This is just so funny!
[14:36] ---
    A glove and balls!
[14:39] ---
    So, what are they for?
[14:41] ---
    To give them a dramatic defeat, of course.
[14:47] ---
    Wh-What?
[14:51] ---
    No way...
[15:06] ---
    A baseball stadium.
[15:09] ---
    Baseball...?
[15:12] ---
    Announcing a change of player
    for the Thai team.
[15:17] ---
    Pinch hitter, 3rd base 4th.
    Luang Dallara, number 43.
[15:24] ---
    Looks like this match will be
    more exciting than expected.
[15:30] ---
    Are you seriously going to
    make Gunpla play baseball?
[15:35] ---
    Sei, what's baseball?
[15:37] ---
    You don't know?
[15:39] ---
    I-I know what it is!
[15:41] ---
    We hit that thing with this, right?
[15:45] ---
    No!
[15:46] ---
    If it's baseball, Sei and Reiji
    will have an advantage.
[15:51] ---
    Why is that?
[15:52] ---
    The batting average of even the
    greatest batter is merely 30 percent.
[15:56] ---
    Meaning that the pitcher has
    a 70 percent chance of winning.
[16:01] ---
    Plus, this is their first contest
    and their pitching style is unknown.
[16:07] ---
    I wouldn't be so sure of that.
[16:09] ---
    Reiji, in baseball, you throw
    the ball over that plate—
[16:14] ---
    Play ball!
[16:15] ---
    Already?!
[16:16] ---
    Alright, let's do this.
    Take... this!
[16:37] ---
    Please watch out for foul balls.
[16:39] ---
    He hit it back!
[16:41] ---
    What a slugger...
[16:43] ---
    That swing speed...
[16:45] ---
    Wow, he's incredible!
[16:48] ---
    Luang Dallara was a member of
    the Thai national baseball team.
[16:52] ---
    He was even scouted
    by the major leagues.
[16:55] ---
    His lifetime batting average
    was 89.9 percent.
[16:58] ---
    Wow, it's just like a manga!
[17:02] ---
    But why a foul ball?
[17:04] ---
    With his ability,
    he could easily have hit a home run.
[17:11] ---
    I know you can do better than that.
[17:15] ---
    I want you to give your all next time!
[17:20] ---
    Reiji, don't aim for the batter.
[17:23] ---
    Then how about this?!
[17:30] ---
    Not good enough!
[17:32] ---
    I'm sorry, but I think
    I've overestimated you two.
[17:37] ---
    I'm disappointed!
[17:42] ---
    Reiji!
[17:50] ---
    What?!
[17:52] ---
    Iori's Gunpla...!
[17:53] ---
    He caught it!
[17:55] ---
    No, the ball vanished, so that didn't count.
[18:01] ---
    But with the final ball, their Gunpla will...
[18:05] ---
    ...be completely pulverized.
[18:12] ---
    The left arm is severely damaged.
[18:15] ---
    The joints are under
    a lot of strain, too. Reiji!
[18:19] ---
    What's wrong with your wrist?!
[18:22] ---
    It's all swollen!
[18:24] ---
    When did you hurt yourself?
[18:25] ---
    It's nothing. I'm fine.
[18:30] ---
    Reiji, give me control.
[18:32] ---
    No, I'll do it.
[18:33] ---
    But...!
[18:34] ---
    Please let me do this!
    But...!
[18:34] ---
    Please let me do this!
[18:36] ---
    I'm not giving up on such a fun battle.
[18:40] ---
    I can take one more.
[18:43] ---
    Let me, Sei.
[18:47] ---
    Alright. But move the
    machine exactly how I say.
[18:52] ---
    Are you going to use that
    here and now?
[18:54] ---
    It's our only way to win.
[19:00] ---
    Activating RG system!
[19:06] ---
    In its current state, the output
    will only be around 30 percent.
[19:11] ---
    But if I concentrate it
    all on the right arm...
[19:18] ---
    The Star Build Strike is...
[19:20] ---
    It's glowing.
[19:24] ---
    That light...
[19:25] ---
    Yes! I wanted to fight you
    when you're giving it your all!
[19:31] ---
    Come on, bring it!
[19:51] ---
    Reiji, bend the torso backwards.
[19:57] ---
    Lift up the left leg.
[20:01] ---
    Then slam it down on the ground!
[20:13] ---
    Th-This is it!
[20:16] ---
    This is the ball!
[20:41] ---
    Game set!
[20:50] ---
    Sei and Reiji won!
[20:52] ---
    Yeah!
[20:56] ---
    Whoa, did he lose?
    Are you kidding me?
[21:01] ---
    Why won't you say anything?
[21:04] ---
    We did it, Reiji!
[21:07] ---
    That was a piece of cake.
[21:08] ---
    Mr. Sei, Mr. Reiji.
[21:12] ---
    What an incredible match that was.
[21:15] ---
    Should we face each other again in the future,
    please fight with all you've got!
[21:20] ---
    Mr. Luang...
[21:22] ---
    We will!
[21:24] ---
    But we'll win next time, too.
[21:30] ---
    It won't be that easy!
[21:35] ---
    What, what, what?!
[21:38] ---
    They're all smiling.
    What's going on?
[21:44] ---
    Why won't you say anything?!
[21:49] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[21:52] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[21:55] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[21:58] ---
    That's how we get past the present
    Ima wo koeteikunda bokutachi wa
[22:12] ---
    Somehow, I was caught up in the flow of time
    Nantonaku sugiteku toki ni nagasare
[22:18] ---
    I was just dimly moving forward
    Bonyari to susumu dake ja
[22:23] ---
    As I walked, it felt like even my footprints...
    Aruitekita michi ni ashiato sae mo
[22:29] ---
    ...were fading away
    Nokosenai ki ga shitanda
[22:33] ---
    I have a place to head to, with my fist in the air
    Kobushi wo furiagete mukau basho ga aru
[22:38] ---
    Let's try to question ourselves,
    Jibun ni toikake
[22:41] ---
    move forward with more strength
    Motto tsuyoku fumidashite miyou
[22:46] ---
    If there's a future you want to grab
    Tsukamitai asu ga aru no nara
[22:49] ---
    No matter how many times you get hurt,
    Nando kizutsuitemo
[22:52] ---
    focus on your dreams
    Yume wo mitakutte
[22:54] ---
    Get past the present
    Ima wo koeteyuke
[22:57] ---
    I don't want to turn away from the obstacles...
    Tachihadakaru mono ni
[23:00] ---
    ...that stand in my way
    Me wo somuketakunai
[23:03] ---
    I don't wanna lose
    Maketakunainda
[23:05] ---
    What can I accomplish?
    Nani ga dekiru no ka?
[23:08] ---
    I want to believe in infinite power,
    Mugen no chikara wo shinjitai kara
[23:13] ---
    So I want us to keep challenging ourselves
    Idomi tsuzuketai
[23:15] ---
    Forever and always
    Bokura wa itsumo
[23:24] ---
    My head hurts.
[23:26] ---
    I need to get out of this.
[23:32] ---
    I need to go back to my room
    and get some rest.
[23:35] ---
    That was really fun, Sei.
[23:38] ---
    Gunpla Battle is great, isn't it?
[23:41] ---
    Yeah, I agree.
[23:43] ---
    What do you think
    our next opponent will be like?
[23:45] ---
    Before all that, you gotta
    get to the nurse's office.
[23:47] ---
    I know.
[23:54] ---
    Next Episode

[00:05] ---
    We value your ability.
[00:08] ---
    And we have the technology to
    increase that ability many times over.
[00:14] ---
    The rest is up to you,
[00:16] ---
    Aila Jyrkiäinen.
[00:19] ---
    What do you want me to do?
[00:23] ---
    We want you to win at Gunpla Battle.
[00:26] ---
    That's all we're asking from you.
[00:35] ---
    Whatever. I'll do it.
[00:51] ---
    The fighter of that white Gunpla.
[00:57] ---
    Reiji...
[00:59] ---
    That boy... Why does he play
    Gunpla Battle like it's actually fun?
[01:07] ---
    He's just going to
    lose against me, anyway.
[01:12] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[01:17] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[01:20] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky
    Mou ichido ano sora e
[01:24] ---
    I built, destroyed, and built again

[01:27] ---
    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[01:30] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[01:34] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[01:38] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[01:40] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[01:46] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)

    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!

    Yay!

    Day 2
[03:18] ---
    Day 3
[03:51] ---
    Battle ended.
[03:57] ---
    Thank you for your support, Mao.
[04:02] ---
    I wasn't just being nice.
[04:06] ---
    I want to battle you two
    in a serious contest.
[04:09] ---
    I want to make it clear
    whose Gunpla is better.
[04:13] ---
    So I can't have you
    losing to some stranger first.
[04:18] ---
    Yeah. When the time comes, then...
[04:21] ---
    We'll fight you with
    everything we've got.
[04:23] ---
    Right back at you.
    I'm going to give it my all, too.
[04:27] ---
    See you later.
[04:34] ---
    Aila.
[04:36] ---
    What's going on?
    Something wrong with the suit?
[04:39] ---
    No, there's no problem.
[04:44] ---
    Episode 14
    Codename: C
[04:49] ---
    Reiji.
[04:50] ---
    Huh?
[04:51] ---
    How's your injury?
[04:53] ---
    It's fine now.
[04:55] ---
    I'm all in for the next battle.
[04:57] ---
    That's good.
[04:59] ---
    You're unbelievable.
[05:01] ---
    Undefeated through the sixth period of
    the qualifiers, even with Reiji's injury.
[05:07] ---
    We were just lucky.
[05:09] ---
    It's our true strength!
[05:13] ---
    Iori.
[05:14] ---
    There are eight periods
    in the qualifiers, right?
[05:17] ---
    Yeah. Then the 16 players
    with the most points...
[05:21] ---
    ...will make it into the finals.
[05:25] ---
    They've won all their battles,
    so they're in, right?
[05:29] ---
    No, not necessarily.
[05:33] ---
    There are other fighters who've
    also won all their battles.
[05:37] ---
    First, there's Meijin Kawaguchi,
    participating as PPSE's special entry.
[05:43] ---
    His Gunpla is the Kӓmpfer Amazing.
[05:47] ---
    He's rumored to be the leading
    tournament contender. It's no bluff.
[05:52] ---
    Another potential champion
    is the main fighter of team Nemesis,
[05:57] ---
    Aila Jyrkiäinen, representing Finland.
[06:01] ---
    Her Gunpla is the Qubeley Papillon.
[06:04] ---
    People still feel the shock
    from when she defeated...
[06:09] ---
    ...Carlos Kaiser, last year's champion.
[06:11] ---
    Then there's the scientific prodigy
    who they call Samurai Boy,
[06:16] ---
    Nils Nielsen, representing America.
[06:20] ---
    His Gunpla is the Sengoku Astray.
[06:23] ---
    In this tournament,
    he's at the eye of the storm.
[06:27] ---
    Also, someone you both know well,
[06:29] ---
    Ricardo Fellini, representing Italy.
[06:33] ---
    His Gunpla is the Wing Gundam Fenice.
[06:37] ---
    And the builder who mastered
    the Gunpla Shingyo school,
[06:41] ---
    Mao Yasaka, representing
    Japan's 5th Block.
[06:44] ---
    His Gunpla is the Gundam X Maoh.
[06:51] ---
    There's also Morris,
    representing Australia.
[06:55] ---
    Szpilman, representing Poland.
    Fox, representing Canada.
[06:59] ---
    The Renato brothers,
    representing Argentina, and so on...
[07:02] ---
    A total of 12 players, including you two.
[07:07] ---
    As well as seven fighters who
    are four points behind,
[07:11] ---
    including Luang Dallara of Thailand,
    who you just defeated.
[07:15] ---
    You may be undefeated now,
    but depending on the seventh period,
[07:20] ---
    the ranking could still change.
[07:24] ---
    Brace yourselves, you two.
[07:28] ---
    Yes, sir!
[07:32] ---
    What?!
[07:33] ---
    What!?!?
[07:34] ---
    Whaaat!!?!??
[07:36] ---
    Those kids haven't lost once!
[07:38] ---
    At this rate, they'll make it to the finals!
[07:41] ---
    I don't want that. I don't!
[07:43] ---
    I don't!!!
[07:45] ---
    Why are you so concerned
    with the Sei Iori and Reiji team?
[07:52] ---
    B-Because...
[07:54] ---
    Th-They just bug me!
[07:58] ---
    If they...
[08:00] ---
    If they what?
[08:02] ---
    Anyway, just make sure they
    don't reach the final tournament!
[08:07] ---
    Yes, sir.
[08:09] ---
    If you say so, I'll call in that man.
[08:14] ---
    A man who accepts any task
    and executes it perfectly,
[08:17] ---
    as long as the price is right.
[08:23] ---
    The one called Codename: C.
[08:31] ---
    Hello, everyone!
[08:33] ---
    I'm Kirara, the Gunpla idol!
[08:36] ---
    Kiraran!
[08:39] ---
    The World Tournament organizers
    have just announced...
[08:43] ---
    ...the details of the seventh period!
[08:47] ---
    The seventh period event will be...
[08:50] ---
    Thump thump! Thump thump!
[08:53] ---
    A Gunpla Race!
[08:58] ---
    The course is indicated
    with lights like this,
[09:01] ---
    and there are some gates along the way.
[09:04] ---
    Contestants must pass these gates
    and go around the course three times.
[09:09] ---
    Ten Gunpla will compete in each race.
    There will be nine races in total.
[09:13] ---
    Starts 10 o'clock tomorrow!!
[09:13] ---
    Ten Gunpla will compete in each race.
    There will be nine races in total.
[09:14] ---
    Starts 10 o'clock tomorrow!!
[09:14] ---
    The first in the race gets four points,
    and the others get no points.
[09:20] ---
    To get through the qualifiers,
    this race is a must-win!
[09:26] ---
    Fighters may choose any Gunpla
    they like for this race.
[09:30] ---
    Not only support craft
    like Base Jabbers and Dodais,
[09:33] ---
    but even fighter planes and tanks
    are allowed in this race.
[09:38] ---
    And now for the key point!
[09:40] ---
    Do tell, Kirara?
[09:42] ---
    Use of firearms is permitted
    during the race!
[09:46] ---
    Hey, are you serious?!
[09:48] ---
    It's up to the fighters to decide...
[09:51] ---
    ...whether to go for speed,
    or to win by taking out the other Gunpla.
[09:56] ---
    Check out the fighters'
    choice of Gunpla and strategies!
[10:02] ---
    Guess that's that.
[10:03] ---
    It's fine.
[10:04] ---
    I've got the Star Build Strike's
    three systems all set to go.
[10:08] ---
    Reiji, you should see the doctor
    before tomorrow's race.
[10:12] ---
    I'm fine. I'm all healed.
[10:15] ---
    Just go already!
[10:36] ---
    Sports Osteopathic Clinic
[10:39] ---
    Sports Osteopathic Clinic
[10:39] ---
    Please take care.
[10:41] ---
    It's healed for good.
[10:43] ---
    I can't wait until tomorrow!
[10:46] ---
    Reiji.
[10:51] ---
    How do you know my name?
[10:55] ---
    I saw it on TV.
[10:57] ---
    You're playing in the
    Gunpla Battle tournament, right?
[10:59] ---
    Yeah, I am.
[11:01] ---
    You're rather childish.
[11:03] ---
    How can you be
    so serious about a game?
[11:06] ---
    It's because it's a game
    that I can take it seriously.
[11:10] ---
    You should try it.
[11:12] ---
    It's more fun than you think.
[11:18] ---
    H-Hey!
[11:22] ---
    It's not fun at all.
[11:26] ---
    It's just painful.
[11:30] ---
    We've entered the final lap
    of the third race!
[11:39] ---
    Watch how fast I am!
[11:41] ---
    Coming right through!
[11:46] ---
    Are you watching me, my dear Kirara?
[11:49] ---
    And that was Mao Yasaka,
    the winner of the second race!
[11:54] ---
    She's not even looking!
[11:59] ---
    I've been waiting for you to lap me, Fellini.
[12:03] ---
    I was already eliminated
    in the qualifiers.
[12:06] ---
    But I'm not the type to just give up.
[12:10] ---
    I'll stop you cold!
[12:15] ---
    See ya!
[12:16] ---
    He vaporized me!
[12:20] ---
    Finish!
[12:22] ---
    The winner of the third race
    is Ricardo Fellini!
[12:32] ---
    It's a souped-up version
    that depends on power output.
[12:35] ---
    I knew you'd be able to control it.
[12:38] ---
    Naturally. I'm a Meijin!
[12:43] ---
    The winner of the fourth race
    is Meijin Kawaguchi!
[12:53] ---
    The winner of the fifth race
    is Aila Jyrkiäinen!
[12:58] ---
    The winner of the sixth race
    is Luang Dallara!
[13:03] ---
    The winner of the seventh race
    is Nils Nielsen!
[13:10] ---
    As I thought, they're all good.
[13:13] ---
    We can't lose against them.
[13:15] ---
    Let's do this!
[13:17] ---
    Yeah.
[13:21] ---
    I'm sorry, China.
[13:24] ---
    I overslept again.
[13:26] ---
    I guess my age is starting to get to me.
[13:29] ---
    How old are you, Mr. Ral?
[13:32] ---
    Me? I'm 35.
[13:35] ---
    Huh?
[13:36] ---
    What?
[13:37] ---
    N-Nothing. I think that's... wonderful.
[13:46] ---
    Mr. Ral, hurry!
[13:48] ---
    Yes.
[13:54] ---
    China, go ahead without me.
[13:56] ---
    Mr. Ral?
[14:11] ---
    What is he doing here?
[14:18] ---
    We'll now begin the ninth and final race.
[14:23] ---
    I made it.
[14:26] ---
    Iori, good luck.
[14:53] ---
    Stick to the plan, okay?
[14:55] ---
    Trust me, I got it!
[15:03] ---
    Go!!!
[15:06] ---
    It's fast!
[15:07] ---
    I don't think so!
[15:09] ---
    Fire! Fire! Fire!
[15:18] ---
    Reiji, discharge!
[15:20] ---
    Yeah!
[15:37] ---
    Whoa, unbelievable speed!
[15:39] ---
    Can he control it?
[15:44] ---
    They're trying so hard.
[15:48] ---
    Yes! Just as we planned.
[15:50] ---
    With this lead,
    they won't be able to attack us.
[15:53] ---
    Now, we just have to keep
    this distance and drive safely.
[15:56] ---
    Leave it to me!
[16:00] ---
    The Star Build Strike is
    at the top with a huge lead!
[16:10] ---
    Leading the first lap
    is the Star Build Strike!
[16:33] ---
    What?!
[16:36] ---
    The machine's being pulled!
[16:39] ---
    What's going on?!
[16:44] ---
    Th-That Gunpla...
[16:56] ---
    There's trouble in the ninth race!
[16:59] ---
    The Star Build Strike has fallen
    in a lake and isn't coming up!
[17:02] ---
    What do you think happened?
[17:04] ---
    Um... I don't know.
[17:07] ---
    What do you mean, "I don't know?!"
[17:11] ---
    The other machines are
    passing it, one by one!
[17:15] ---
    Iori!
[17:17] ---
    Good!
[17:19] ---
    Good! Good!
    They aren't coming up.
[17:23] ---
    By now, their Gunpla should be...
[17:29] ---
    What is this?!
[17:34] ---
    Darn!
[17:45] ---
    This is bad! At this rate...
[17:51] ---
    Hey!
[17:52] ---
    What are you doing here?
[17:55] ---
    That's the Star Build Strike...
[17:57] ---
    It's supposed to be racing.
[18:01] ---
    Are you interfering with the race?!
[18:04] ---
    I won't let you do that!
[18:28] ---
    No!
[18:32] ---
    Leave them alone.
[18:40] ---
    And not just those two...
[18:43] ---
    Never interfere with anyone...
[18:47] ---
    ...who takes Gunpla Battle seriously!
[18:56] ---
    Looks like this is it.
[18:59] ---
    Why are you after them?
[19:02] ---
    Who asked you to do this?
[19:11] ---
    Sei! We ready yet?
[19:14] ---
    We're back on!
[19:15] ---
    Reiji, use the RG system
    with the arms only.
[19:18] ---
    Be careful not to overdo it,
    or it'll damage the machine!
[19:21] ---
    I know!
[19:35] ---
    What happened just now?!
[19:42] ---
    It's the Star Build Strike!
[19:45] ---
    Iori!
[19:46] ---
    It's back in the race!
[19:49] ---
    Yes!
[19:50] ---
    But the lost time has left it
    trailing far behind the leader!
[19:54] ---
    Will it catch up in time?
[19:56] ---
    Sei, how's the discharge?
[19:58] ---
    Particles remaining, 28 percent.
[19:59] ---
    Only 56 seconds of full discharge left!
[20:02] ---
    That's plenty!
[20:10] ---
    The Star Build Strike has passed
    the main stand at an incredible speed!
[20:14] ---
    It's still trying for the lead,
    but can it catch up?!
[20:20] ---
    It passed the FLAT
    to get out of last place!
[20:25] ---
    It's passed the Gabthley and Zudah, too!
[20:29] ---
    It passed the G-Armor
    to take sixth place!
[20:38] ---
    Amazing! It's passing the
    Moebius Zero and Gundam Maxter!
[20:42] ---
    What an incredible comeback
    for the Star Build Strike!
[20:45] ---
    The Kyrios and Den'an Zon
    are straight ahead!
[20:50] ---
    The Star Build Strike has
    risen to second place!
[20:53] ---
    Ten more seconds!
[20:55] ---
    I see it!
[20:56] ---
    The BuCUE Tank is in the home straight!
[20:59] ---
    The Star Build Strike is right behind!
[21:02] ---
    Brother, behind us!
[21:04] ---
    I know.
[21:05] ---
    Just a little further to the goal!
[21:11] ---
    Darn!
[21:14] ---
    Wow!
[21:15] ---
    The Star Build Strike has caught up
    to the BuCUE Tank!
[21:19] ---
    Brother!
[21:20] ---
    It's alright. Time's up.
[21:28] ---
    No!
[21:30] ---
    Darn it!!
[21:32] ---
    Finish!
[21:35] ---
    The winners of the ninth race
    are the Renato brothers.
[21:41] ---
    Sei and Reiji couldn't make it.
[21:44] ---
    The seventh period is now over.
[21:46] ---
    Sei and Reiji have fallen to
    17th place in the qualifiers.
[21:49] ---
    They've hit a yellow light
    on their way to the finals!
[21:54] ---
    We lost.
[21:55] ---
    What was with that Gunpla...?
[22:15] ---
    I was nibbling potato chips and it hit me
    Poteto chippusu tabetetara futo omotta
[22:18] ---
    (Hold dear my days)
[22:21] ---
    How many years have I been eating the same thing?
    Nanjuunen onaji mon tabetsuzuketeirun darou
[22:25] ---
    (Fight your fears)
[22:27] ---
    People tell me I need to act my age
    Mou otona nandakara tte iu kedo
[22:30] ---
    (I go my way)
[22:33] ---
    But it's not like I can turn against something I love
    Suki na mono wo kirai ni nareru wake nado nainda
[22:37] ---
    (Normal life)
[22:39] ---
    I put all my energy into childish things
    Taai nai koto mo zenryoku toukyuu
[22:44] ---
    Doesn't matter if you're young or old,
    Muchuu ni nareru kodomo mo
[22:47] ---
    you can lose yourself in something
    Otona mo kankei nai
[22:50] ---
    Let's keep on walking at the same rhythm
    Kawaranai rizumu de arukitsuzukete yukou
[22:56] ---
    True, our stride is a little longer now
    Maa hohaba wa sukoshi dake ookiku natta keredo
[23:02] ---
    The sunset from back then colors our skies today
    Ano hi no yuuhi wa kyou mo sora wo someyuku
[23:08] ---
    I want to be a fool tomorrow,
    Nee ashita mo gojuunengo mo
[23:12] ---
    and even 50 years from now
    Baka yattetainda
[23:15] ---
    The short-pants spirit goes on
    Tsuzuite yuku hanpan supirit
[23:17] ---
    Let's whistle a tune and head home
    Kuchibue fuite kaerou
[23:22] ---
    The never-ending short-pants spirit
    Never-ending hanpan supirit
[23:25] ---
    Our childhood will go on forever
    Owaranai childhood
[23:40] ---
    This is delicious.
[23:41] ---
    Today's wine tastes so good.
[23:44] ---
    It truly is the sweet taste of victory.
[23:52] ---

[00:01] ---
    Sei. Reiji.
[00:04] ---
    The Gunpla that interfered
    with your race was controlled by...
[00:08] ---
    ...a Gunpla mafia guy called "C."
[00:12] ---
    Gunpla mafia?
[00:14] ---
    Who are they?
[00:16] ---
    They're underworld types who'll
    take any dirty job for money.
[00:23] ---
    Whoever hired this guy
    must be after you two.
[00:28] ---
    That Mega Size Model Zaku
    that barged into the Battle Royal...
[00:32] ---
    ...also seemed to be
    deliberately targeting us.
[00:37] ---
    But why?
[00:39] ---
    We haven't done anything wrong.
[00:41] ---
    I heard that Zaku...
[00:42] ---
    ...was sent in by the organizer
    to spice up the battle.
[00:49] ---
    Reiji?
[00:50] ---
    Where are you going?
[00:52] ---
    I have some business to take care of.
[00:54] ---
    Sei, I'm leaving the Gunpla to you.
[00:59] ---
    What!!?!??
[01:01] ---
    H-How did you get in?
[01:04] ---
    I asked them to let me in.
[01:07] ---
    Very gently and politely.
[01:09] ---
    A-And what do you want from me?
[01:13] ---
    Are you the one who's been
    interfering with our matches?!
[01:18] ---
    Th-That gem...!
[01:20] ---
    Just as I thought, this boy is...
[01:24] ---
    ...the crown prince of Arian!
[01:28] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[01:33] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[01:36] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky
    Mou ichido ano sora e
[01:40] ---
    I built, destroyed, and built again
    Tsukuriagetemo kowashite mata tsukutte
[01:43] ---
    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[01:46] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[01:50] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[01:54] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[01:56] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[02:02] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)
[02:04] ---
    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!
    Me wo samashina tsuyosa wa meikaku
[02:07] ---
    Break through destiny (Fight for yourself!)
    Sadame nante kowase (Fight for yourself!)
[02:09] ---
    Don't look away (Fly again!)
    Me sorasuna (Fly again!)
[02:12] ---
    When you wish to become stronger,
    Tsuyoku naritai to negau koto de
[02:17] ---
    Your wings that once trembled...
    Furueteta hane wa
[02:19] ---
    ...will cut through the darkness
    Yami wo kirisaiteku
[02:23] ---
    I won't be afraid, with you by my side
    Kimi ga iru kara mo kowakunai yo
[02:29] ---
    I grasp your hand in mine
    Sono te nigitte
[02:33] ---
    Because you told me...
    Yowasa datte
[02:34] ---
    ...that my weakness is my strength
    Kimi no tsuyosa to oshiete kureta kara
[02:40] ---
    I was able to stand up again
    Boku wa mata tachiagareta
[02:44] ---
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete
[02:51] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete
[02:51] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
    Let's start now, and fly into the sky once again
    Koko kara mou ichido ano sora e
[02:53] ---
    Let's start now, and fly into the sky once again
    Koko kara mou ichido ano sora e
[02:59] ---
    I-It's a misunderstanding, Mr. Reiji.
[03:02] ---
    S-Sure, I'm the main sponsor and
    head of the organizing company, but...
[03:08] ---
    ...I'm not directly involved
    in running the tournament.
[03:10] ---
    I would never interfere with—
[03:13] ---
    But the fact is, we're being attacked!
[03:15] ---
    Th-That's unforgivable.
[03:18] ---
    I'll have the administration side
    look into it at once,
[03:20] ---
    and reinforce the security.
[03:23] ---
    Mr. Reiji, we caused you some trouble.
[03:27] ---
    I must apologize as the organizer.
[03:30] ---
    I'm sorry.
[03:34] ---
    Really, I'm so sorry!
[03:39] ---
    Personally, I don't care.
[03:42] ---
    Huh?
[03:44] ---
    Whether there's
    interference or meddlers,
[03:46] ---
    I'll accept any challenge.
[03:49] ---
    But...
[03:50] ---
    If anyone messes with the people
    giving their all in this tournament...
[03:56] ---
    No matter who it is,
[03:59] ---
    I won't show any mercy.
[04:01] ---
    Episode 15
    Fighter's Radiance
[04:08] ---
    We're 17th in the qualifiers.
[04:10] ---
    To get into the best 16
    and advance to the finals,
[04:14] ---
    we have to nail the final period
    that starts tomorrow.
[04:19] ---
    We've got to win.
[04:22] ---
    I'm... I'm scared, Baker.
[04:26] ---
    Don't worry anymore, Chairman.
[04:29] ---
    I-I mean, that boy...
[04:31] ---
    He doesn't seem to remember
    anything right now,
[04:34] ---
    but he could recall everything.
[04:36] ---
    Recall what?
[04:40] ---
    My secret.
[04:42] ---
    And the secret of the Plavsky particle—
[04:49] ---
    What's wrong?
[04:52] ---
    I'm sorry, sir.
[04:54] ---
    It was just my imagination.
[04:56] ---
    D-Don't scare me!
[04:59] ---
    Just as I thought.
[05:01] ---
    PPSE's Chairman Mashita knows
    the secret of creating Plavsky particles.
[05:08] ---
    But why is it so confidential?
[05:21] ---
    Meijin,
[05:23] ---
    the final period rules
    and matchups are set.
[05:28] ---
    They'll be one-on-one battles.
[05:31] ---
    Your opponent is Khalifa,
    representing Oman.
[05:35] ---
    Never heard of him.
[05:37] ---
    There's no need
    to remember a loser's name.
[05:40] ---
    Just win.
[05:42] ---
    Yeah, you're right.
[05:45] ---
    By the way, I found
    one interesting match.
[05:53] ---
    No way.
[05:55] ---
    Mr. Fellini is our next opponent?
[06:01] ---
    That's exciting.
[06:03] ---
    We'll finally be able to
    battle with Fellini for real.
[06:07] ---
    But if you lose, you guys will—
[06:11] ---
    Don't say negative things like that.
[06:14] ---
    Right, Sei?
[06:16] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[06:19] ---
    Exactly!
[06:21] ---
    We're gonna win!
[06:24] ---
    Mr. Fellini!
[06:27] ---
    He's all ready for battle.
[06:32] ---
    I'm getting fired up.
[07:15] ---
    This should take me
    to the tournament finals.
[07:55] ---
    Old man Luang did it, too!
[07:58] ---
    Now he's got a ticket
    to the tournament finals.
[08:03] ---
    Make sure to follow him, Reiji.
[08:06] ---
    Of course.
[08:08] ---
    Iori didn't come to watch?
[08:10] ---
    He's in the room prepping
    the Star Build Strike.
[08:13] ---
    He's concentrating so hard
    I'm afraid to talk to him.
[08:31] ---
    Is this seat taken, Señorita?
[08:35] ---
    Oh, Mr. Fellini.
[08:37] ---
    Huh? Have we met before?
[08:41] ---
    What're you saying?
[08:43] ---
    It's me.
[08:44] ---
    K-Kirara?!
[08:47] ---
    You couldn't tell?
[08:48] ---
    What?!
[08:49] ---
    Um... Of course I knew.
[08:52] ---
    How could I not tell?
[08:55] ---
    Whatever.
[09:00] ---
    Anyway, congratulations on
    passing the qualifiers.
[09:07] ---
    Grazie.
[09:12] ---
    It's impressive.
[09:13] ---
    You made it to the finals even
    before tomorrow's match.
[09:19] ---
    Yeah, tell me about it.
[09:23] ---
    So you can lose for them
    tomorrow without hesitation.
[09:26] ---
    What?
[09:28] ---
    Am I wrong?
[09:29] ---
    After the first day, 14 fighters
    have passed the qualifiers.
[09:34] ---
    Your favorite team of
    Sei Iori and Reiji are 17th.
[09:38] ---
    If you lose for them,
[09:40] ---
    then you can all go
    to the tournament finals.
[09:43] ---
    That's your plan, right?
[09:47] ---
    Huh? It's not?
[09:49] ---
    What?
[09:50] ---
    H-How did you know?
[09:53] ---
    Oh, Fellini!
[10:05] ---
    The Star Build Strike Gundam.
[10:09] ---
    A shield that absorbs
    the opponent's particle beams,
[10:12] ---
    and a system that uses the
    absorbed particles for its own output.
[10:16] ---
    It's amazing he built
    such a Gunpla in so little time.
[10:21] ---
    No.
[10:23] ---
    He had that potential from the beginning.
[10:27] ---
    By partnering with Reiji
    and fighting all those strong opponents,
[10:31] ---
    Sei Iori's building ability
    finally awakened.
[10:36] ---
    And who knows how it will evolve?
[10:44] ---
    Going head-to-head with it
    would be costly.
[10:48] ---
    I could lose on purpose and
    spare my machine for the finals.
[10:53] ---
    Besides, I'm fighting Sei and Reiji.
[10:56] ---
    Part of me wants to let them win.
[11:03] ---
    But that's just not me.
[11:09] ---
    That isn't like the Italian
    champ, Ricardo Fellini.
[11:14] ---
    Right, Fenice?
[11:24] ---
    Funnels!
[11:36] ---
    They must be transparent!
[11:43] ---
    Battle ended.
[11:59] ---
    Mr. Ral, where were you?
[12:02] ---
    I was on patrol.
[12:03] ---
    Huh?
[12:04] ---
    Oh, nothing. Don't worry.
[12:07] ---
    What about their battle?
[12:09] ---
    It's about to begin.
[12:23] ---
    Let's go.
[12:24] ---
    Yeah.
[12:27] ---
    We will now begin match 26
    of the eighth period.
[12:31] ---
    A Gunpla battle of
    Sei Iori and Reiji versus Ricardo Fellini.
[12:40] ---
    Aren't you leaving?
[12:42] ---
    Allow me to watch this battle.
[12:44] ---
    It's rare for you to show
    interest in a battle.
[12:49] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[12:59] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[13:05] ---
    Field 9, Canyon.
[13:17] ---
    Battle start.
[13:21] ---
    Star Build Strike!
[13:23] ---
    Let's go!
[13:25] ---
    Wing Gundam Fenice, here I come!
[13:36] ---
    He's not firing at us?
[13:38] ---
    He's wary of our Absorb Shield.
[13:41] ---
    That's not all.
[13:43] ---
    Huh?
[13:45] ---
    He wants to greet us first!
[13:51] ---
    We're going to collide!
[14:02] ---
    Fellini.
[14:05] ---
    I accept...
[14:07] ---
    ...your resolve!
[14:17] ---
    What?!
[14:18] ---
    Where are you looking?
[14:30] ---
    The shield!
[14:31] ---
    How dare you...!
[14:34] ---
    Why?
[14:36] ---
    How come...?
[14:38] ---
    Aren't you letting them win?
[14:40] ---
    Fellini...
[15:02] ---
    That wasn't good enough.
[15:04] ---
    What?!
[15:06] ---
    I taught you to make use of
    the terrain, didn't I?
[15:15] ---
    The booster!
[15:21] ---
    As I thought, the Star
    Build Strike is losing.
[15:24] ---
    Sei Iori's Gunpla has
    slightly better performance,
[15:29] ---
    but as a fighter, Mr. Fellini has
    vastly more experience.
[15:34] ---
    Think again.
[15:36] ---
    Sei's knowledge of Gundam stories...
[15:40] ---
    ...more than makes up
    for Reiji's inexperience.
[15:51] ---
    There!
[15:52] ---
    Gotcha!
[15:55] ---
    What?!
[16:06] ---
    It's going to explode!
[16:09] ---
    You're mine!
[16:15] ---
    Darn you!
[16:36] ---
    The Star Build Strike...
[16:46] ---
    Does it hurt, Fenice?
[16:51] ---
    I'm sorry.
[16:54] ---
    But I didn't build you to
    be put on a shelf for display.
[17:04] ---
    I built you to win!
[17:16] ---
    The Gunpla I made...
[17:20] ---
    My Wing Gundam Fenice...
[17:24] ---
    I made you to show the world
    that you're the strongest!
[17:33] ---
    So...
[17:35] ---
    Just hang in there a little longer.
[17:41] ---
    Okay, partner?
[17:45] ---
    Let's grab victory with these hands!
[17:56] ---
    Reiji, use the RG system in full mode.
[18:01] ---
    You sure, Sei?
[18:02] ---
    If we use it in this condition,
    the Star Build Strike will...
[18:07] ---
    Mr. Fellini means to win the battle,
[18:10] ---
    even if he loses the Fenice.
[18:14] ---
    To win against him,
[18:15] ---
    the Star Build Strike and I
    need to have the same resolve!
[18:27] ---
    That light...!
[18:29] ---
    By having Plavsky particles
    permeate it both inside and out...
[18:33] ---
    They can control the Gunpla better
    and maximize the machine's output.
[18:38] ---
    This is the true power
    of the Star Build Strike!
[18:42] ---
    This is Iori's...
[18:45] ---
    This is Reiji's Gunpla.
[18:54] ---
    Let's go, Sei!
[18:56] ---
    Yeah!
[19:01] ---
    It's fast!
[19:28] ---
    The strain's too much!
[19:29] ---
    Just do it!
[19:44] ---
    Why is he doing all this?
[19:47] ---
    Mr. Fellini already
    has a spot in the finals.
[19:52] ---
    Don't you get it?
[19:54] ---
    Meijin Kawaguchi?
[19:57] ---
    You don't seem to
    be a big fan of Gunpla.
[20:01] ---
    Then watch closely.
[20:05] ---
    Watch this battle
    between true Gunpla Fighters!
[20:25] ---
    Go, Reiji!
[20:27] ---
    You're finished now!
[20:30] ---
    I won't lose!
[20:53] ---
    Battle ended.
[21:00] ---
    This battle is a draw.
    The end result is a tie.
[21:34] ---
    Sorry, Star Build Strike.
[21:41] ---
    Thank you.
[21:56] ---
    I was nibbling potato chips and it hit me

    The never-ending short-pants spirit
    Never-ending hanpan supirit
[23:06] ---
    Our childhood will go on forever
    Owaranai childhood
[23:14] ---
    Th-Th-They got through the qualifiers?!
[23:16] ---
    Yes.
[23:17] ---
    Sei Iori and Reiji earned
    two points for a draw,
[23:22] ---
    and made it to the finals in 16th place.
[23:26] ---
    How could that happen?!
[23:29] ---
    Sei, can I borrow your pin vise?
[23:33] ---
    The 0.5mm drill.
[23:36] ---
    Would you like some sandpaper?
[23:37] ---
    Yeah. #800, please.
[23:40] ---
    To think you guys beat
    each other up yesterday.
[23:47] ---
    Hey, is Gunpla building really that fun?
[23:51] ---
    It sure is!
    It sure is!

[00:02] ---
    Dad! Dad!
[00:06] ---
    Welcome, Sei.
[00:08] ---
    Today is your celebration.
[00:10] ---
    Yeah!
[00:11] ---
    Come on in.
[00:26] ---
    Congratulations on making the
    best 16 in the World Tournament!
[00:30] ---
    And welcome back from traveling
    around the world to promote Gunpla.
[00:42] ---
    Sei, I brought you a present.
[00:47] ---
    Thanks, Dad!
[00:53] ---
    How wonderful it is to love Gunpla!
    How wonderful it is to love Gunpla!
[00:56] ---
    Hurray for Gunpla!
    Hurray for Gunpla!
[01:07] ---
    It was a dream.
[01:10] ---
    I wonder where Dad is right now?
[01:15] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[01:20] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[01:23] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky
    Mou ichido ano sora e
[01:27] ---
    I built, destroyed, and built again

    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[01:33] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[01:37] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[01:41] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[01:43] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[01:49] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)

    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!

[02:46] ---
    Hello, everyone!
[02:48] ---
    I'm the image character for the
    Gunpla Championship World Tournament,
[02:51] ---
    Kirara, the Gunpla idol!
[02:54] ---
    Kiraran!
[02:58] ---
    It's day ten of the World Tournament.
[02:59] ---
    The qualifier periods are over,
[03:01] ---
    and 16 teams have been selected
    to advance to the tournament finals!
[03:06] ---
    Before the finals,
    which start in three days,
[03:10] ---
    we have here with us...
[03:11] ---
    ...Rainer Cziommer of Germany, who was
    unfortunately eliminated in the qualifiers!
[03:16] ---
    Mr. Cziommer, what can we
    expect to see next?
[03:22] ---
    Who could've guessed
    Sei and Reiji would still be in.
[03:27] ---
    I'm gonna make it nice and clear.
[03:31] ---
    Fellini will lose.
[03:33] ---
    He'll be totally crushed.
[03:36] ---
    You must have really bad taste
    if you're into a loser like that, Kirara.
[03:40] ---
    Mr. Cziommer!
[03:44] ---
    I'm all dressed and ready!
[03:47] ---
    Now I can deal with those reporters.
[03:54] ---
    Could you tell us
    how you raised Sei Iori?
[03:59] ---
    I didn't do anything special.
[04:01] ---
    I just hoped he'd become
    a kind and honest boy.
[04:04] ---
    Your husband Takeshi was runner-up
    in the 2nd World Tournament.
[04:07] ---
    Now your son Sei is in the best 16.
[04:10] ---
    Yours is truly a Gunpla family.
[04:12] ---
    And you're so beautiful, madam!
[04:14] ---
    Oh, stop.

    Dad, We Meet Again?
[04:41] ---
    My bad, Sei.
[04:43] ---
    I'm sorry I broke it.
[04:45] ---
    You don't have to keep saying that.
    It couldn't be helped.
[04:50] ---
    I mean, our opponent was
    Mr. Fellini, after all.
[04:53] ---
    But will you be able to fix it for
    the tournament finals in two days?
[04:58] ---
    It's okay. The Class Rep
    and Mr. Ral are going to help.
[05:03] ---
    I know! I'll help, too!
[05:07] ---
    No you won't.
    You've never built Gunpla before.
[05:11] ---
    It'll be a piece of cake for me.
[05:14] ---
    Here, let me see.
[05:16] ---
    Wh-What?!
[05:18] ---
    It'll be fine.
[05:19] ---
    No!
[05:22] ---
    I said no!
[05:34] ---
    How could you?!
[05:36] ---
    Y-You're the one who wouldn't let go.
[05:40] ---
    Don't bother me anymore.
[05:41] ---
    I'll work alone!
[05:44] ---
    Okay, okay. I got it.
[05:47] ---
    You're so bossy just because
    you're good at Gunpla building.
[05:51] ---
    Where are you going, Reiji?
[05:53] ---
    None of your business!
    You told me not to bother you.
[05:56] ---
    Bye.
[06:02] ---
    And that's what happened.
[06:04] ---
    Don't fight.
[06:06] ---
    No, we're not fighting.
[06:10] ---
    This could be a good
    development for Reiji.
[06:16] ---
    At least he's interested
    in Gunpla building now.
[06:34] ---
    Y-Yummy!
[06:37] ---
    Why is Japanese food so delicious?
[06:40] ---
    This is just a local specialty,
    but it's still so good.
[06:45] ---
    Hurray for "Exotic Japan!"
[06:51] ---
    Mommy! Mommy!
[06:53] ---
    Buy me a Haro!
[06:55] ---
    Fine, fine.
[07:06] ---
    I wish I could stay
    in this country forever.
[07:23] ---
    Just you wait, Sei.
[07:25] ---
    I'll build an amazing Gunpla
    so you can't brag anymore.
[07:30] ---
    But...
[07:32] ---
    Looking at these again,
    there sure are a lot of them.
[07:36] ---
    Just how many different kinds
    of these Zaku things are there?
[07:42] ---
    Lalah Sune's Mobile Armor?
[07:46] ---
    Is that the Gunpla's name?
[07:48] ---
    There's a whole story behind it.
[07:52] ---
    It looks like this is
    your first time buying Gunpla.
[07:55] ---
    Who are you, old man?
[07:57] ---
    I'm just a passing Gunpla fan
    traveling around the world.
[08:02] ---
    If you're having trouble,
    I can choose a Gunpla for you.
[08:07] ---
    Huh? Who asked you to...
[08:09] ---
    Let me see.
[08:11] ---
    He's not listening.
[08:18] ---
    Oh, this is good.
[08:20] ---
    It's the Beginning Gundam,
[08:22] ---
    the main machine in Model Suit
    Gunpla Builders Beginning G.
[08:26] ---
    This machine was the first one
    that its controller Haru Irei built.
[08:30] ---
    It's distinguished by
    its range of movement.
[08:33] ---
    It has high mobility in Gunpla Battle
    even when assembled normally!
[08:37] ---
    It has a beam rifle and nine beam sabers…
[08:39] ---
    Don't get carried away, old man!
    It has a beam rifle and nine beam sabers…
[08:39] ---
    Don't get carried away, old man!
[08:43] ---
    Who is that guy?
[08:44] ---
    As for the young lady
    peeking in from over there...
[08:47] ---
    Huh?
[08:49] ---
    For you,
[08:51] ---
    I'd recommend the Command Gundam.
[08:53] ---
    M-Me?
[08:55] ---
    You're...
[08:57] ---
    I-I've never built a Gunpla before.
[09:02] ---
    Then I'll teach you!
[09:05] ---
    See? I have all the tools!
[09:12] ---
    What are you doing here?
[09:14] ---
    It's just a coincidence.
[09:16] ---
    Anyway, who is that old man?
[09:18] ---
    How would I know?
[09:20] ---
    Stop your whispering!
[09:23] ---
    Eliminate distraction
    from your Gunpla building!
[09:25] ---
    You're like a totally different person.
[09:28] ---
    You're supposed to say "Sir, yes sir!"
[09:30] ---
    Otherwise, keep quiet!
[09:33] ---
    Sir, yes sir!
    Sir, yes sir!
[09:35] ---
    First, open the Gunpla box
    and take out the instructions.
[09:42] ---
    Read the instructions carefully.
[09:45] ---
    You have one minute!
[09:46] ---
    Impossible!
[09:48] ---
    Sir, yes sir!
[09:52] ---
    Before you start, check the parts.
[09:55] ---
    Make sure everything shown
    in the instructions is in the box.
[09:59] ---
    Don't forget the polycaps and stickers!
[10:03] ---
    Start building from
    step one in the instructions.
[10:08] ---
    Pay close attention
    when using the nippers!
[10:12] ---
    Cut the gate slightly long,
    and then trim the extra bit.
[10:17] ---
    It's more effective to make two cuts.
[10:22] ---
    Assemble the parts you cut out
    as per the instructions.
[10:26] ---
    Be careful not to forget the polycaps.
[10:29] ---
    Removing the sticker will
    weaken its adhesive strength.
[10:33] ---
    Position it carefully!
[10:36] ---
    It's more effective to
    rub it on with a cotton swab.
[10:43] ---
    Check the machine's
    movement range as you build.
[10:46] ---
    A deep understanding of your Gunpla
    will be an advantage in battle.
[10:54] ---
    Finished, sir!
    Finished, sir!
[10:58] ---
    Wonderful.
[11:00] ---
    I can't believe it's your first time.
[11:02] ---
    They're built diligently
    according to the basics.
[11:05] ---
    You both did a good job.
[11:08] ---
    To commemorate your
    first time building Gunpla,
[11:11] ---
    keep the nippers and sandpaper.
[11:13] ---
    He's back to normal.
    He's back to normal.
[11:16] ---
    We may as well give
    the Gunpla a little extra touch.
[11:21] ---
    By just panel-lining with a marker
    and adding some matte spray,
[11:26] ---
    they'll be transformed!
[11:28] ---
    Sir, yes sir!
    Sir, yes sir!
[11:31] ---
    Well, I'm off.
[11:33] ---
    Please be careful, Chairman.
[11:35] ---
    Miss Baker, while I'm away, take care of...
[11:39] ---
    Yes. I'll think of a new plan
    before the tournament finals.
[11:44] ---
    Please do.
[11:53] ---
    Chairman Mashita is away on business.
[11:55] ---
    Now, how am I going to
    I'll get into the PPSE factory?
[12:01] ---
    It'd be quicker if
    I got close to Meijin Kawaguchi,
[12:04] ---
    but they'll catch me if I'm careless.
[12:09] ---
    What did you say?!
[12:11] ---
    Wait a minute.
    The assignment is over.
[12:15] ---
    Your pride won't allow it?
    I don't care.
[12:19] ---
    The assignment is pointless
    if it's outside the tournament!
[12:22] ---
    What's going on?
[12:24] ---
    That's enough!
[12:25] ---
    Don't let it go public!
[12:27] ---
    Hello? Hello?
[12:38] ---
    Sir! Panel-lining with marker is done!
    Sir! Panel-lining with marker is done!
[12:41] ---
    Good. On to the finish!
[12:43] ---
    Sir, yes sir!
    Sir, yes sir!
[12:48] ---
    When it comes to Gunpla,
    he suddenly changes.
[12:51] ---
    He reminds me of someone.
[13:00] ---
    How's it going, Iori?
[13:02] ---
    Can you fix the Gunpla by
    the tournament finals in two days?
[13:07] ---
    Just about, yeah.
[13:10] ---
    Don't worry!
[13:12] ---
    I'll cheer you on until you finish it.
[13:15] ---
    Huh? You'll stay here until I'm done?
[13:19] ---
    Um...
[13:24] ---
    Even if it gets late,
    I'll be sure to take her home.
[13:30] ---
    Th-Thank you very much!
[13:46] ---
    W-Wow!
[13:47] ---
    Just with those little touches
    the old man taught us,
[13:51] ---
    I can't believe they
    look so much better.
[13:54] ---
    Gunpla gets better and better
    the more you add to it.
[13:59] ---
    Coloring, a change of weapons,
    customizing the machine...
[14:03] ---
    It's as unlimited as your creativity.
[14:05] ---
    That's what makes Gunpla so fun,
    and also what gives it depth.
[14:09] ---
    Great, let's try them out!
[14:12] ---
    Can you battle?
[14:15] ---
    Huh?
[14:15] ---
    Gunpla Battle!
[14:18] ---
    I've never done anything like that.
[14:20] ---
    I don't even know how.
[14:22] ---
    Alright, whatever.
[14:25] ---
    I can't help it.
[14:28] ---
    It's alright.
[14:29] ---
    The battle system here has an unmanned machine
[14:32] ---
    so you can play against the computer.
[14:36] ---
    You can enjoy a battle on your own.
[14:43] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[14:52] ---
    Field 1, Space.
[14:57] ---
    Battle start.
[15:01] ---
    Reiji, Beginning Gundam, let's go!
[15:13] ---
    How awesome is the Gunpla I built?
[15:17] ---
    Yeah, yeah. It's so amazing.
[15:20] ---
    Even if it's your first time
    controlling a Gunpla,
[15:22] ---
    if you built it yourself,
    it's easier to master it.
[15:26] ---
    You're right!
[15:29] ---
    Let's see who my opponent is.
[15:33] ---
    That machine...
[15:35] ---
    I've seen it before.
[15:39] ---
    It's huge.
[15:40] ---
    That Gunpla was made by
    putting claws on a Zeong.
[15:44] ---
    How did such a well-customized
    Gunpla get into the battle system?
[15:54] ---
    What?!
[15:58] ---
    The arms came off!
[16:00] ---
    That's an all-range attack!
[16:06] ---
    Darn!
[16:08] ---
    There's no opening!
[16:11] ---
    Reiji!
[16:12] ---
    Darn you.
[16:14] ---
    I worked so hard
    to build this Gunpla...!
[16:18] ---
    Th-This is...
[16:20] ---
    This is how Sei must've felt
    during every battle.
[16:24] ---
    And unlike mine, his Build Strike...
[16:29] ---
    ...takes days or weeks to build.
[16:32] ---
    Ahead!
[16:39] ---
    Charge right up to him!
[16:45] ---
    Amuro Ray, the Gundam pilot,
    defeated Char's Zeong that way!
[16:58] ---
    Oh no! I forgot it had legs.
[17:01] ---
    What a liar!
[17:11] ---
    Backup?
[17:14] ---
    I can't watch this any longer!
[17:16] ---
    You!
[17:17] ---
    Here come the arms!
[17:39] ---
    Without the arms...
[17:40] ---
    All that's left is...!
[17:42] ---
    That humongous...
[17:43] ---
    Body!
[18:17] ---
    Battle ended.
[18:20] ---
    Yeah!
[18:21] ---
    We did it.
[18:23] ---
    You're good.
[18:24] ---
    Of course. Who do you think I am?
[18:29] ---
    Huh? I thought you'd never
    played Gunpla Battle before.
[18:33] ---
    I-I learned by watching you operate it.
[18:37] ---
    It was surprisingly easy.
[18:39] ---
    Seriously?
[18:41] ---
    Of course.
[18:43] ---
    Anyway, how long are you
    going to hold my hand?
[18:46] ---
    You held mine first!
[18:48] ---
    No, I didn't!
[18:49] ---
    Yeah, you did!
[18:54] ---
    Wait a minute.
[18:55] ---
    What?
[18:56] ---
    Where's the old man?
[18:58] ---
    Huh?
[18:59] ---
    Where did he...?
[19:05] ---
    I knew as soon as I saw
    that customized Zeong.
[19:08] ---
    I didn't think I'd meet you here.
[19:14] ---
    Sometimes he's the owner of
    a back-alley model store.
[19:17] ---
    And sometimes he's a Gunpla fan,
[19:20] ---
    traveling around the world
    to promote Gunpla.
[19:23] ---
    But his true self is...
[19:29] ---
    International Gunpla Battle
    Official Referee, Takeshi Iori!
[19:33] ---
    Gunpla mafioso "C."
[19:35] ---
    I'm arresting you for 36 crimes, including...
[19:39] ---
    ...illicit participation in an official tournament
    and unlawful Gunpla control!
[19:56] ---
    Don't use Gunpla for foolish things.
[20:02] ---
    What?!
    What?!
[20:04] ---
    You built this Beginning Gundam yourself?!
[20:07] ---
    What do you think?
    Building Gunpla is a piece of cake.
[20:15] ---
    He didn't just assemble it.
[20:17] ---
    He drew in the panel lines
    and even used matte spray.
[20:21] ---
    So cool.
[20:24] ---
    You really made this by yourself?
[20:27] ---
    Well, I did have a little help.
[20:31] ---
    Who helped you?
[20:33] ---
    An old man who was usually calm,
[20:36] ---
    but got real strict
    when we built Gunpla.
[20:38] ---
    Oh yeah, he gave me this!
[20:43] ---
    Th-Those nippers...!
[20:45] ---
    What is it?
[20:48] ---
    Oh. It's nothing.
[20:54] ---
    Dad...
[20:59] ---
    Sorry, Sei.
[21:00] ---
    I'll still be roaming
    the world in disguise, but...
[21:04] ---
    ...I've been watching you on TV.
[21:06] ---
    You've become a good builder.
[21:08] ---
    Good luck in the tournament finals.
[21:11] ---
    Sei...
[21:21] ---
    I'll do my best, Dad.
[21:23] ---
    With the Build Strike I made,
    and together with Reiji.
[21:43] ---
    I was nibbling potato chips and it hit me
    Poteto chippusu tabetetara futo omotta
[21:46] ---
    (Hold dear my days)
[21:49] ---
    How many years have I been eating the same thing?
    Nanjuunen onaji mon tabetsuzuketeirun darou
[21:53] ---
    (Fight your fears)
[21:55] ---
    People tell me I need to act my age
    Mou otona nandakara tte iu kedo
[21:58] ---
    (I go my way)
[22:01] ---
    But it's not like I can turn against something I love
    Suki na mono wo kirai ni nareru wake nado nainda
[22:06] ---
    (Normal life)
[22:07] ---
    I put all my energy into childish things
    Taai nai koto mo zenryoku toukyuu

    Doesn't matter if you're young or old,
    Muchuu ni nareru kodomo mo
[22:15] ---
    you can lose yourself in something
    Otona mo kankei nai

    Let's keep on walking at the same rhythm
    Kawaranai rizumu de arukitsuzukete yukou
[22:24] ---
    True, our stride is a little longer now
    Maa hohaba wa sukoshi dake ookiku natta keredo

    The sunset from back then colors our skies today
    Ano hi no yuuhi wa kyou mo sora wo someyuku

    Let's whistle a tune and head home
    Kuchibue fuite kaerou

    The never-ending short-pants spirit
    Never-ending hanpan supirit
[22:53] ---
    Our childhood will go on forever
    Owaranai childhood
[23:02] ---
    Sei! Reiji!
[23:04] ---
    Congrats on making the tournament finals!
[23:07] ---
    I came to cheer for you!
[23:09] ---
    Thank you, Sei's mom.
[23:11] ---
    Mom, what about the store?
[23:13] ---
    I closed it for a while.
[23:16] ---
    But what about the store's sales?
[23:18] ---
    Don't worry.
[23:19] ---
    B-But...
[23:20] ---
    Let it go. She's here now.
[23:23] ---
    Well, I know but...
[23:26] ---
    Oh, Mom!
[23:28] ---
    Yes?
[23:30] ---
    Well... Dad was...
[23:31] ---
    Iori Models
[23:34] ---
    I'm finally back in Tokyo,
    so I came to see you, but...
[23:39] ---
    Why is it closed?
[23:41] ---
    It isn't a holiday, is it?
    Why is the store closed?!
[23:44] ---
    Are you mad because
    I've been gone so long?
[23:46] ---
    Open the store, Rin!
[23:49] ---
    Rin!
[23:50] ---
    Rin, I love you!

[00:02] ---
    Wow!
[00:04] ---
    Look at that craftsmanship.
[00:06] ---
    Cool!
[00:08] ---
    It's amazing!
[00:09] ---
    I want it.
[00:10] ---
    I've watched Gundam and built Gunpla
    since I was in kindergarten.
[00:15] ---
    I've even been showcased in
    model-building magazines.
[00:18] ---
    I never thought there would be anyone
    better than me at Gunpla building.
[00:30] ---
    I became arrogant.
[00:32] ---
    Looking back on it now,
    I can't believe how childish I was.
[00:36] ---
    Though I still am a child...
[00:39] ---
    But...
[00:56] ---
    ...there's always someone better.
[00:58] ---
    There's no end to Gunpla.
[01:01] ---
    That's what that man...
[01:03] ---
    That's what my master taught me.
[01:07] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[01:12] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[01:15] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky
    Mou ichido ano sora e
[01:19] ---
    I built, destroyed, and built again
    Tsukuriagetemo kowashite mata tsukutte
[01:22] ---
    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[01:25] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[01:29] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[01:33] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[01:35] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[01:41] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)
[01:43] ---
    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!
    Me wo samashina tsuyosa wa meikaku
[01:46] ---
    Break through destiny (Fight for yourself!)
    Sadame nante kowase (Fight for yourself!)
[01:49] ---
    Don't look away (Fly again!)
    Me sorasuna (Fly again!)
[01:51] ---
    When you wish to become stronger,
    Tsuyoku naritai to negau koto de

    Your wings that once trembled...
    Furueteta hane wa

    ...will cut through the darkness
    Yami wo kirisaiteku
[02:02] ---
    I won't be afraid, with you by my side
    Kimi ga iru kara mo kowakunai yo
[02:08] ---
    I grasp your hand in mine
    Sono te nigitte
[02:12] ---
    Because you told me...
    Yowasa datte
[02:13] ---
    ...that my weakness is my strength
    Kimi no tsuyosa to oshiete kureta kara
[02:19] ---
    I was able to stand up again
    Boku wa mata tachiagareta
[02:23] ---
    For you, I'll overcome all pain

    The day has finally come.
[02:42] ---
    The 7th Gunpla Battle
    Championship World Tournament.
[02:46] ---
    The tournament finals start today,
[02:50] ---
    with the 16 teams that
    made it through the qualifiers.
[02:55] ---
    The battles will probably get
    very fierce from here on.
[03:00] ---
    I wonder how the fighters
    must be feeling this morning.
[03:07] ---
    Like Iori and Reiji...
[03:11] ---
    Wake up, both of you!
[03:16] ---
    M-Mom...
[03:18] ---
    What? Let me sleep.
[03:21] ---
    I just finished the Build Strike's—
[03:23] ---
    Just wake up!
[03:24] ---
    Brackets for the tournament finals
    will be announced today!
[03:28] ---
    You'll be late if you don't wake up!
[03:30] ---
    Actually, you're already late!
[03:34] ---
    What?!
    What?!
[03:37] ---
    When humans become Newtypes,
    one day they'll even be able to control time.
[03:43] ---
    When humans become Newtypes,
    one day they'll even be able to control time.
[03:43] ---
    Sei, stop babbling and hurry!
[03:43] ---
    Sei, stop babbling and hurry!
[03:43] ---
    Why do we repeat the same mistakes?
[03:56] ---
    Looks like we made it.
[03:59] ---
    Our first opponent is...
[04:01] ---
    It's me.
[04:03] ---
    The one you guys will be fighting against...
[04:07] ---
    It's me, Mao Yasaka.
[04:11] ---
    Mao...
[04:13] ---
    I see. The time has come at last.
[04:16] ---
    Yes, it finally has.
[04:19] ---
    We'll have our showdown.
[04:27] ---
    Episode 17
    Model of the Heart
[04:32] ---
    There will be two battles today.
[04:34] ---
    Obviously Meijin Kawaguchi
    and Aila Jyrkiäinen will win.
[04:41] ---
    Hey, Samurai Boy.
[04:44] ---
    Looks like both our
    first battles are gonna be easy.
[04:47] ---
    You should never be off guard, Mr. Fellini.
[04:50] ---
    Although, there's no factor
    that could make me lose.
[04:55] ---
    You're a smart-mouthed kid.
[04:58] ---
    Even if you win the first battle,
    the next one will be tough.
[05:02] ---
    In my second battle, I'll face...
[05:05] ---
    ...the winner of this fight,
    Mao Yasaka versus Sei Iori and Reiji?
[05:09] ---
    Hey, let's hear the genius' opinion.
[05:13] ---
    Which do you think will win?
[05:18] ---
    Let's see.
    According to my prediction...
[05:23] ---
    Attack with the regular rifle.
[05:27] ---
    Particle beam is absorbed by the shield.
[05:30] ---
    It discharges the absorbed particles...
[05:33] ---
    ...and then accelerates!
[05:40] ---
    No!
[05:43] ---
    Then I'll lead off with the hyper
    satellite cannon. It can't absorb that.
[05:55] ---
    But Mr. Reiji will dodge it.
[06:00] ---
    That won't work either.
[06:02] ---
    The Build Strike is approaching.
    Fire back with vulcans.
[06:05] ---
    It's coming even closer.
    Respond with beam saber.
[06:08] ---
    Saber to saber.
    Fire the satellite when separating.
[06:11] ---
    No, he'd dodge that.
[06:13] ---
    Put away the regular rifle,
    attach a missile pod...
[06:17] ---
    Not enough ammo.
[06:21] ---
    Even in close combat,
    I'm overpowered.
[06:30] ---
    The Build Strike has that glowing system...
[06:34] ---
    I can't imagine any winning moves!
[06:45] ---
    Old man!
[06:47] ---
    Old man!
[06:49] ---
    Teach me how to do that awesome trick!
[06:52] ---
    Awesome trick?
[06:53] ---
    You just did it.
[06:55] ---
    Blowing away your opponent's
    Gunpla like boom! Teach me!
[06:59] ---
    No, I can't be bothered.
[07:01] ---
    Come on, teach me!
[07:03] ---
    I want to do that trick!
    I want to get stronger!
[07:06] ---
    And become the best
    Gunpla builder in the world!
[07:09] ---
    I'm not leaving until you do!
[07:11] ---
    Want some soba noodles?
[07:14] ---
    Yes please.
[07:18] ---
    You've got to teach me today!
[07:20] ---
    I can't. I have to train now.
[07:23] ---
    Train?
[07:24] ---
    At what? Let me join you!
[07:30] ---
    Is fishing a training?
[07:32] ---
    Yeah.
[07:33] ---
    Will this make you
    stronger in battles?
[07:36] ---
    Of course!
[07:42] ---
    Look.
[07:44] ---
    Me, too!
[07:46] ---
    That was good!
[08:13] ---
    The two battles that took place
    today were very interesting.
[08:18] ---
    Tomorrow it's your turn.
    I wish you luck.
[08:22] ---
    Leave it to us.
[08:24] ---
    Right?
[08:25] ---
    Yeah!
[08:27] ---
    Isn't that Mao?
[08:29] ---
    Huh?
[08:31] ---
    Yeah.
[08:49] ---
    W-Wow!
[08:51] ---
    You really are awesome, Master!
[08:55] ---
    Please teach me that trick!
[08:58] ---
    Oh, that's not a big deal.
[09:01] ---
    If you follow the Gunpla Shingyo school
    until you're about my age,
[09:05] ---
    you'll be able to do things like that.
[09:08] ---
    Don't be mean, just teach me already!
[09:11] ---
    Mao, this isn't something
    you can be taught.
[09:14] ---
    Even if I could teach you,
    would that make you happy?
[09:18] ---
    Would it satisfy you to make a perfect copy
    of a Gunpla that someone else built?
[09:25] ---
    That's not the kind of Gunpla I'm seeking.
[09:29] ---
    That's not the way of the Shingyo school.
[09:35] ---
    Gunpla is about
    imagination and originality.
[09:38] ---
    You have to find that yourself.
[09:41] ---
    There's no right answer.
[09:44] ---
    You must use your experiences
    to expand your imagination,
[09:49] ---
    and then model the ideal
    that lies within your heart.
[09:53] ---
    That is the Gunpla Shingyo school.
[10:10] ---
    How long do you plan on standing there?
[10:16] ---
    Aren't you in the middle
    of a tournament?
[10:22] ---
    Master!
[10:23] ---
    Please... Please...!
[10:26] ---
    Please teach me your trick!
[10:32] ---
    Please teach me your trick!
[10:35] ---
    You said I'd have to find it myself.
[10:37] ---
    I understand it's against
    the teachings of our school.
[10:41] ---
    But I...!
[10:43] ---
    I want to win tomorrow's battle!
[10:46] ---
    Master, please!
[10:48] ---
    Please teach me the innermost mystery
    of the Gunpla Shingyo school!
[10:57] ---
    Okay, just a little.
[11:02] ---
    M-Master, this is...
[11:05] ---
    I'll teach you the mystery
    of the Shingyo school.
[11:08] ---
    But I won't teach your head,
[11:11] ---
    I'll teach your body!
[11:13] ---
    Bring it on!
[11:20] ---
    Stand up! We don't have time!
[11:38] ---
    What are you lying down for?! Get up!
[11:43] ---
    How is this going to help?
[11:45] ---
    I'm just being thrown around.
[11:48] ---
    It's only hurting my body.
[11:50] ---
    That's it? How pitiful!
[11:54] ---
    Master, I...
[11:56] ---
    Didn't you beg on the ground for this?
    Out of gas already?
[12:00] ---
    Is this all the resolve you've got?!
[12:04] ---
    Bring it!
[12:14] ---
    Hey, Master.
[12:16] ---
    What, Mao?
[12:17] ---
    Who's your favorite female character
    in all the Gundam series?
[12:22] ---
    Mine's definitely Miss Emma Sheen.
[12:25] ---
    I think she's pretty,
    and she's really determined.
[12:30] ---
    How about you?
[12:32] ---
    Me?
[12:33] ---
    I...
[12:35] ---
    Fire! Fire!
[12:40] ---
    Murrue Ramius is my only choice.
[12:42] ---
    You're dirty-minded!
[12:45] ---
    You don't need reasons
    to like something.
[12:47] ---
    You simply like it.
[12:49] ---
    Right, Mao?
[13:03] ---
    M-Master?
[13:07] ---
    From
    Master
[13:08] ---
    From
    Master
[13:08] ---
    A letter?
[13:12] ---
    "I'm tired so I'm going home."
[13:15] ---
    What the heck?!
[13:18] ---
    He's so selfish,
    doing whatever he likes!
[13:25] ---
    Whatever you like...
[13:35] ---
    I see...
[13:37] ---
    You're right.
[13:42] ---
    But, Master...
[13:44] ---
    I still think Miss Emma is the best.
[13:49] ---
    Because I simply like her.
[14:02] ---
    That lady...
[14:04] ---
    Where's the entrance?
[14:06] ---
    Excuse me...
[14:08] ---
    Oh, it's you!
[14:09] ---
    You stayed at our inn before.
[14:11] ---
    I knew it! You're from that inn.
[14:14] ---
    Yes, I'm Misaki.
[14:17] ---
    Did you come to cheer for Mao Yasaka?
[14:20] ---
    Yes.
[14:21] ---
    I feel bad for Iori and Reiji, but...
[14:26] ---
    We now begin match three in the
    first round of the tournament finals.
[14:37] ---
    Where's Mao?
[14:40] ---
    We don't wanna win by default, do we?
[14:42] ---
    Don't worry.
[14:44] ---
    We promised to battle
    in the World Tournament.
[14:48] ---
    He'll definitely come.
[15:02] ---
    Sorry I'm late.
[15:09] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[15:15] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[15:22] ---
    Field 1, Space.
[15:28] ---
    Sei Iori!
[15:29] ---
    Reiji!
[15:32] ---
    Mao Yasaka!
[15:34] ---
    Star Build Strike Gundam!
[15:36] ---
    Gundam X Maoh!
[15:37] ---
    Let's go!
[15:39] ---
    Here I go!
[15:50] ---
    Already?!
[15:59] ---
    How can he keep firing?!
[16:15] ---
    That's a solar panel?!
[16:17] ---
    I get it!
[16:19] ---
    It's using a Solar System for power
    to gather the surrounding particles!
[16:23] ---
    Its reflectors have been enhanced, too.
[16:26] ---
    Sei, the explanation doesn't matter.
[16:29] ---
    Can't you tell from his Gunpla's moves?
[16:32] ---
    He's enjoying this battle!
[16:37] ---
    Here I go!
[16:48] ---
    Well then, we're going all out, too!
[17:13] ---
    Being able to enjoy
    a battle in this situation...
[17:16] ---
    Mao, you're really awesome!
[17:23] ---
    This battle's great!
[17:28] ---
    Not bad, Mao.
[17:30] ---
    Not bad.
[17:32] ---
    Mao's doing well.
[17:34] ---
    He must've practiced hard yesterday.
[17:37] ---
    He was blinded by the sight
    of victory in front of him.
[17:40] ---
    I just cleared up his doubts.
[17:43] ---
    Now he's absorbed in fighting...
[17:45] ---
    ...with an unclouded heart.
[17:48] ---
    The Shingyo school models one's heart
    in the tangible form of Gunpla.
[17:53] ---
    As well as in battles.
[17:56] ---
    You've grasped the innermost mystery
    of the Shingyo school, Mao!
[18:20] ---
    A-Awesome...
[18:27] ---
    This one's really going to hurt!
[18:31] ---
    So is this!
[18:32] ---
    Yeah!
[18:33] ---
    Activating Solar System!
[18:40] ---
    And...
[19:00] ---
    This is my...
[19:04] ---
    ...Maoh Sword!
[19:06] ---
    Activating RG system!
[19:15] ---
    Go, Build Knuckle!
[20:29] ---
    Mao.
[20:31] ---
    Misaki.
[20:33] ---
    You came?
[20:35] ---
    Thanks for coming all this way.
[20:38] ---
    I'm flattered...
[20:44] ---
    You were really awesome!
[21:14] ---
    Master...
[21:16] ---
    That was an interesting battle.
[21:19] ---
    This is why I can't quit Gunpla.
[21:24] ---
    Master.
[21:29] ---
    I want to build an even better Gunpla.
[21:33] ---
    No, I will build it!
[21:36] ---
    Just watch!
[21:54] ---
    I was nibbling potato chips and it hit me

    But it's not like I can turn against something I love

    True, our stride is a little longer now

    Mao sure was strong.
[23:18] ---
    Yeah.
[23:19] ---
    I bet the next time we battle him,
    he'll even be stronger.
[23:24] ---
    That's just what
    we're hoping for, right?
[23:26] ---
    Yeah.
[23:31] ---
    Battle ended.
[23:34] ---
    What?!
[23:35] ---
    What's that?!
[23:39] ---
    N-No way...
[23:42] ---
    Mr. Luang lost...?
[23:45] ---
    To whom?
[23:48] ---
    So much for being a top contender.

[00:03] ---
    Where are you...?
[00:06] ---
    A super long range shot!
[00:13] ---
    That's the GM Sniper K9.
[00:18] ---
    What firing accuracy!
    No wonder they're in the best 16.
[00:30] ---
    But I'm better at close combat!
[00:35] ---
    Hold it for 20 seconds.
[00:37] ---
    Roger that!
[00:39] ---
    It's a lightweight type,
    but it has so much power!
[00:49] ---
    If that's all the firepower you've got,
    my Abigorbine won't even break a sweat—
[01:00] ---
    Wh-What?!
[01:06] ---

[01:12] ---

[01:19] ---
    Mr. Luang lost...?
[01:23] ---
    To whom?
[01:26] ---
    So much for being a top contender.
[01:29] ---
    That was a piece of cake.
[01:32] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[01:37] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[01:40] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky

[01:50] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[01:54] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[01:58] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[02:00] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[02:06] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)

[02:33] ---
    I grasp your hand in mine

    Because you told me...

    ...that my weakness is my strength

[03:04] ---
    That was unexpected.
[03:06] ---
    Luang Dallara has been
    eliminated already?
[03:10] ---
    The Renato brothers haven't done
    anything remarkable until now.
[03:15] ---
    They must have been concealing...
[03:19] ---
    ...their sharply honed claws.
[03:23] ---
    But that's probably all over now.
[03:26] ---
    Their next opponent is too tough.
[03:32] ---
    What the heck!
[03:33] ---
    Everybody's talking about
    Meijin this and Meijin that.
[03:36] ---
    Leave it be.

    Just imagine their reaction
    when we beat him.
[03:43] ---
    Can't you hear it already?
[03:45] ---
    The sound of people around
    the world gasping in surprise.

    Episode 18
    Bloodhounds
[03:57] ---
    Gunpla Shingyo school, Mao Yasaka!
[04:01] ---
    I'm completely revived!
[04:03] ---
    That was quick.
    That was quick.
[04:05] ---
    I have no time to mope around.
[04:08] ---
    I've figured out my problems,
    so now I just need to move forward.
[04:12] ---
    I'm staying here until
    the tournament is over.
[04:16] ---
    Please tell me if I can help with anything.
[04:19] ---
    Alright. Thanks.
[04:22] ---
    By the way...
[04:24] ---
    Do you know where I'm off to now?
[04:27] ---
    Who cares?
[04:30] ---
    Wh-Where are you going, Mao?
[04:33] ---
    Actually, I'm off to
    the hobby center with Misaki.
[04:38] ---
    It's a date. It's a date.
[04:40] ---
    A date!
[04:45] ---
    What was that about?
[04:46] ---
    Maybe he's cheering us
    up in his own way.
[04:50] ---
    I doubt that.
[04:52] ---
    A date with Misaki.
[04:53] ---
    M-Maybe...
    A date with Misaki.
[04:54] ---
    A date with Misaki.
[04:59] ---
    Yasaka's on a date?
[05:01] ---
    Is he with Miss Misaki?
[05:02] ---
    Yeah, that's what he said.
[05:06] ---
    That's nice.
[05:09] ---
    Wh-When the tournament is over,
    m-maybe we could...
[05:16] ---
    This yakisoba looks so delicious!
[05:19] ---
    But so do those dumplings.
[05:22] ---
    That's the girl Reiji was with.
[05:28] ---
    H-Hello.
[05:31] ---
    Have we met somewhere?
[05:33] ---
    Oh! I'm sorry.
[05:35] ---
    We saw you with Reiji the other day.
[05:39] ---
    Reiji?!
[05:40] ---
    Hey!
[05:43] ---
    Sorry I'm late.
[05:48] ---
    I'll introduce myself first.
[05:51] ---
    I'm Sei Iori, a contestant in
    the Gunpla Battle Championship.
[05:55] ---
    I'm his classmate, China Kousaka.
[05:58] ---
    Y-Yes...
[06:00] ---
    And I'm Reiji!
[06:01] ---
    That I know.
[06:04] ---
    What's your name?
[06:07] ---
    I'm Ai... Ai...
[06:11] ---
    I'm Aina.
[06:13] ---
    You have the same name as
    the 08th MS Team's heroine!
[06:17] ---
    R-Really?
[06:20] ---
    So your name is Aina?
[06:22] ---
    I didn't know that.
[06:24] ---
    I never told you.
[06:26] ---
    Miss Aina,
[06:27] ---
    did you come here to watch
    the Gunpla Battle Championship?
[06:31] ---
    Huh? Um... Yes...
[06:34] ---
    Didn't you say you aren't
    interested in Gunpla?
[06:38] ---
    M-My friend invited me.
    I'm just tagging along.
[06:42] ---
    Do you even have any friends?
[06:46] ---
    What do you mean?
[06:47] ---
    I'm saying you're rude.
[06:49] ---
    You're one to talk!
[06:52] ---
    What did you say?!
[06:53] ---
    What!
[06:54] ---
    Calm down...
[06:56] ---
    Would you like something sweet?
[07:00] ---
    Yeah!
    Yeah!
[07:18] ---
    Sure, joints may be fragile,
[07:20] ---
    but it's impossible to destroy them
    like that with handguns.
[07:26] ---
    There are no traces of funnels or bits.
[07:28] ---
    It's like magic.
[07:32] ---
    There's a cause and effect for everything.
[07:36] ---
    Even if it's sorcery or sleight of hand,
[07:38] ---
    you just need to know the trick.
[07:41] ---
    You're confident.
[07:43] ---
    I welcome this.
[07:45] ---
    It looks like I can fight
    seriously against them.
[07:48] ---
    And I'll win.
[07:50] ---
    That's the mission of a Meijin...
[07:52] ---
    ...who has inherited the Kawaguchi name.
[07:59] ---
    And then...
[08:05] ---
    Julio, we can't afford to hold back
    in tomorrow's battle.
[08:09] ---
    We'll give it our all.
[08:10] ---
    There's no need for that, Brother.
[08:14] ---
    Compared to the second Meijin,
    fighting the third will be child's play.
[08:19] ---
    That's exactly why.
[08:21] ---
    We'll strip him of his glory...
[08:24] ---
    ...while the whole world watches.
[08:27] ---
    Alright, Brother.
[08:29] ---
    Let's give them a chance
    to witness our battle.
[08:33] ---
    No, our war!
[08:42] ---
    This is yummy.
[08:44] ---
    Yeah, it's delicious!
[08:48] ---
    D-Don't eat too much.
[08:52] ---
    They're very much alike.
[08:54] ---
    You say something?
    You say something?
[08:56] ---
    Nothing.
[09:00] ---
    Let's go get some more!
[09:02] ---
    Looks like you're having a good time.
[09:05] ---
    M-Mao?!
[09:07] ---
    Where did you come from?
[09:08] ---
    What happened?
    Weren't you on a date?
[09:12] ---
    Yes, I went on a date.
[09:14] ---
    I did go on a date...
[09:24] ---
    Misaki!
[09:27] ---
    Mao!
[09:28] ---
    Misaki!
[09:30] ---
    Mao!
[09:32] ---
    Misaki!
[09:34] ---
    Mao!
[09:37] ---
    Misaki! Misaki!
[09:39] ---
    Misaki...!
[09:43] ---
    It's too soon!
    I'm not ready for that!
[09:45] ---
    You should never rush these things.
[09:48] ---
    Misaki!
[09:52] ---
    Misaki... Misaki...
[09:55] ---
    It's your fault.
[09:57] ---
    So straightforward!
    Can't you use a little more tact?
[10:00] ---
    I can't. You're so insensitive.
[10:01] ---
    You're so mean...
    I can't. You're so insensitive.
[10:03] ---
    You're so mean...
    Shut it for a sec!
[10:05] ---
    Stop crying like a baby!
[10:12] ---
    Fellini isn't here.
[10:14] ---
    He said he'll watch it on video
    because Yuuki will win anyway.
[10:18] ---
    Yeah, I agree.
[10:20] ---
    And Mao?
[10:21] ---
    I'm afraid to talk to him now.
[10:25] ---
    China, where's Mrs. Rinko?
[10:28] ---
    Since Iori and Reiji
    don't have a match today,
[10:31] ---
    she said she was
    going to go shopping.
[10:32] ---
    I-I see.
[10:35] ---
    We now begin quarterfinals match one
    of the tournament finals.
[10:41] ---
    Here we go.
[10:42] ---
    Yeah.
[10:56] ---
    We'll show you our war.
[10:59] ---
    Buckle up, Mr. Meijin.
[11:06] ---
    We now begin quarterfinals match one
    of the tournament finals.
[11:12] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[11:22] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[11:28] ---
    Field 7, Ruins.
[11:36] ---
    Battle start.
[11:40] ---
    Meijin Kawaguchi,
    Kӓmpfer Amazing, launching!
[11:57] ---
    I've reached the destination.
[11:59] ---
    It's best to assume that
    they can already snipe at us.
[12:05] ---
    The points from where
    they can aim here...
[12:08] ---
    One of these three.
[12:10] ---
    What should we do, Kawaguchi?
[12:11] ---
    I won't give them
    any time to use their tricks.
[12:14] ---
    I'll poke at the shrubs.
[12:29] ---
    Did he spot our location?!
[12:30] ---
    Don't be panicked.
    It's just a diversion.
[12:34] ---
    It looks like the Meijin is
    hoping for a shoot-out.
[12:38] ---
    Plan S4. Send in the Hound.
[12:40] ---
    Roger!
[12:46] ---
    Take off!
[12:51] ---
    Hound, start firing
    as soon as deployment is complete.
[12:58] ---
    Mr. Ral.
[12:59] ---
    Huh?
[13:00] ---
    What's he shooting at?
[13:02] ---
    His opponent is the GM Sniper K9.
[13:06] ---
    The Meijin is attacking the sniping points,
[13:08] ---
    and trying to flush it out.
[13:24] ---
    Deployment completed.
[13:25] ---
    Then let's begin.
[13:27] ---
    Okay.
[13:40] ---
    It moved!
[13:41] ---
    I'll pursue it!
[13:47] ---
    Are you serious?
[13:52] ---
    He blocked it?!
[13:54] ---
    Now that I know where it is...
[14:01] ---
    The right leg container!
[14:03] ---
    An attack from another direction?
[14:04] ---
    That's self-propelled artillery!
[14:08] ---
    Behind you!
[14:10] ---
    We can't get them from above.
    Drag the opponent down!
[14:24] ---
    Movement confirmed.
[14:25] ---
    You won't get away!
[14:39] ---
    A wire trap!
[14:40] ---
    In such a short time?!
[14:51] ---
    A trap!
[14:55] ---
    Gotcha!
[15:03] ---
    Kawaguchi, there's a facility
    behind you to the right. Head there.
[15:06] ---
    I have no choice.
[15:14] ---
    He fell for it, Brother!
[15:15] ---
    Good. Deploy the Bloodhound team.
[15:25] ---
    We can't see anything from here!
[15:26] ---
    What's going on?
[15:28] ---
    Let's go where we can see!
[15:29] ---
    Y-Yeah!
    Let's go where we can see!
[15:30] ---
    Y-Yeah!
[15:34] ---
    I can't believe they
    brought in multiple machines.
[15:37] ---
    When we confronted the GM,
    its backpack was missing.
[15:41] ---
    Yeah.
[15:42] ---
    They're operating it independently
    as self-propelled artillery.
[15:46] ---
    But it was a good call to run in here.
[15:50] ---
    Even if they bring in two machines,
    you have an edge in this tight space.
[15:54] ---
    No, I suspect that they
    lured us here on purpose.
[15:59] ---
    What do you mean?
[16:01] ---
    A tactician likes to use tricks.
[16:03] ---
    Keep searching for enemies.
[16:06] ---
    I can see now!
[16:07] ---
    Yuuki's Kӓmpfer still looks intact.
[16:11] ---
    That's good.
[16:13] ---
    Sei, over there!
[16:14] ---
    Something small is moving!
[16:16] ---
    Something small?
[16:21] ---
    What are those?
[16:24] ---
    What?!
[16:24] ---
    What happened?
[16:25] ---
    There's something near us!
[16:27] ---
    Execute Operation Time Stop.
[16:29] ---
    Roger.
[16:31] ---
    Those are...!
[16:32] ---
    1/144 Zeon soldier figures?!
[16:35] ---
    They're setting
    time bombs on the joints!
[16:40] ---
    Zeon soldiers?! I get it now!
[16:43] ---
    Setup is complete, Brother.
[16:46] ---
    Detonate.
[16:47] ---
    Detonate.
[16:50] ---
    Yuuki!
[16:52] ---
    What happened?
[16:53] ---
    They set bombs.
[16:55] ---
    Bombs?
[16:57] ---
    Yeah.
[16:58] ---
    It's probably the same tactic
    they used against Luang Dallara.
[17:03] ---
    The Renato brothers...
[17:05] ---
    What they're playing isn't Gunpla Battle!
[17:09] ---
    Hound, stand by to rear.
[17:10] ---
    Have the GM charge in.
[17:12] ---
    Though it should be in pieces by now.
[17:21] ---
    He's still alive!
[17:22] ---
    How did he survive that explosion?!
[17:26] ---
    Why? Why?!
[17:31] ---
    This sliminess and shine...
[17:34] ---
    Grease?
[17:35] ---
    Exactly.
[17:37] ---
    By looking at the way
    Luang Dallara's Gunpla was damaged,
[17:40] ---
    we anticipated that you'd
    do something to the joints.
[17:44] ---
    That's why we applied
    slippery grease beforehand.
[17:51] ---
    Is the magic over now?
[17:52] ---
    You!
[18:00] ---
    Then prepare for the worst!
[18:05] ---
    What?!
[18:08] ---
    What?
[18:09] ---
    Its power suddenly increased.
[18:11] ---
    A Trans-Am system?
[18:12] ---
    No,
[18:14] ---
    its head camera has changed
    from green to red.
[18:17] ---
    That's not Trans-Am,
[18:19] ---
    but the EXAM system developed
    for use against Newtypes!
[18:25] ---
    Save your trump card till the end.
    That's just basic tactics.
[18:30] ---
    Go!
[18:35] ---
    It's fast!
[18:49] ---
    You don't deserve the name of Meijin.
[18:52] ---
    We'll prove it to the world
    through this war of ours.
[18:56] ---
    A war?
[18:57] ---
    Yes.
[18:59] ---
    A real battle that a peace-spoiled
    boy like you can't handle.
[19:06] ---
    Darn! Our last weapon...!
[19:27] ---
    That's not good!
[19:27] ---
    President Yuuki!
    That's not good!
[19:28] ---
    President Yuuki!
[19:30] ---
    Yuuki...!
[19:33] ---
    He's going to lose...
[19:37] ---
    Our Gunpla is going to lose.
[19:41] ---
    The Gunpla that embodies
    all of PPSE's best technologies...
[19:45] ---
    Allan.
[19:46] ---
    Some things in our lives
    we leave to fate.
[19:49] ---
    Some things are like
    dramas without a script.
[19:52] ---
    But the outcome of
    this fight is inevitable!
[20:00] ---
    Time to give up, Mr. Meijin.
[20:08] ---
    What?!
[20:32] ---
    Th-That's impossible.
[20:34] ---
    He lured us to the spot
    where the container fell...!
[20:39] ---
    It's not over!
    We still have the Hound.
[20:45] ---
    A rifle?!
[20:46] ---
    This is not a war.
[20:49] ---
    This is Gunpla Battle!
[20:52] ---
    Kawaguchi!!!
[21:03] ---
    Battle ended.
[21:11] ---
    B-Brother...
[21:14] ---
    So this is where it ends?
[21:17] ---
    The war of the Renato brothers...
[21:21] ---
    Thanks, Kawaguchi.
[21:23] ---
    If you weren't the fighter,
    we couldn't have won this battle.
[21:27] ---
    I'm mad at myself.
[21:30] ---
    I let the machine
    take this much damage...
[21:35] ---
    I've failed as a Meijin.
[21:37] ---
    That guy, he showed us
    an incredible fight.
[21:40] ---
    Yuuki really is amazing.
[21:43] ---
    If he wasn't, we'd lose our edge.
[21:45] ---
    Right, Sei?
[21:47] ---
    Yeah.
[21:50] ---
    Let's go, Reiji!
    Let's go to where he is!
[21:53] ---
    Yeah!
[22:08] ---
    I was nibbling potato chips and it hit me

    Never-ending hanpan supirit
[23:18] ---
    Our childhood will go on forever
    Owaranai childhood
[23:26] ---
    I'm sorry, Chairman.
[23:29] ---
    Yes.
[23:30] ---
    Yes.
[23:32] ---
    By the time you get back,
[23:34] ---
    The Sei Iori and Reiji team
    will definitely...
[23:36] ---
    Yes.
[23:37] ---
    Goodbye.
[23:42] ---
    They won't win this time.
[23:46] ---
    Because their next opponent
    is the Early Genius...
[23:51] ---
    The Samurai Boy.

    He's set his sword to the same
    particle band as my beam!
[00:32] ---
    That's right.
[00:34] ---
    This sword has a particle
    alteration coating.
[00:38] ---
    It changes the particle band
    based on the blade direction,
[00:43] ---
    and cuts through the beams.
[00:54] ---
    When you match it to the field's
    control particle band,
[00:58] ---
    this is what happens.
[01:15] ---
    Battle ended.
[01:20] ---
    What an amazing Gunpla!
    How did he build it?
[01:24] ---
    I can't wait to battle him.
[01:27] ---
    Yeah!
[01:30] ---
    Now I've advanced to the best eight.
[01:33] ---
    My next opponent is...
[01:38] ---
    Nils Nielsen.
[01:40] ---
    Can I have a moment with you?
[01:45] ---
    Just as I planned.
[01:48] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[01:53] ---
    But I won't run away anymore

    I built, destroyed, and built again

[02:03] ---
    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[02:06] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[02:10] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[02:14] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[02:16] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[02:22] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)

    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!

    Kimi ga iru kara mo kowakunai yo
[02:49] ---
    I grasp your hand in mine

    Because you told me...

[02:54] ---
    ...that my weakness is my strength

[03:19] ---
    Episode 19
    Astray's Blade
[03:19] ---
    I'll get straight to the point.
[03:22] ---
    We at PPSE are fully prepared
    to be your personal sponsor.
[03:27] ---
    Materials for building Gunpla,
    a state of the art workshop,
[03:31] ---
    and an excellent support team.
[03:34] ---
    We'd provide them free of—
[03:36] ---
    Wait a second.
[03:38] ---
    I already have
    Yajima Trading sponsoring me.
[03:42] ---
    Plus, shouldn't you be backing
    Meijin Kawaguchi of your works team?
[03:49] ---
    To spread Gunpla Battle further,
[03:53] ---
    Chairman Mashita wishes to support
    excellent players more widely.
[03:58] ---
    If you accept our sponsorship,
    we won't ask anything in return.
[04:04] ---
    And we won't cause you trouble.
[04:07] ---
    Nothing in return?
[04:10] ---
    Why are they so eager
    to get me on their side?
[04:13] ---
    What do you think?
[04:15] ---
    I'm honored that you
    think so highly of me.
[04:19] ---
    Well...
[04:21] ---
    I'd gladly accept your sponsorship.
[04:25] ---
    Thank you.
[04:26] ---
    Chairman Mashita
    will be delighted to hear that.
[04:29] ---
    I'll show you to our workshop at—
[04:32] ---
    No, there's no need for that.
[04:35] ---
    My Sengoku Astray is so perfect
    that there's no need to add anything.
[04:41] ---
    But there is one thing
    I'd like to request of PPSE.
[04:46] ---
    What is it?
[04:48] ---
    The Gunpla battle system...
[04:52] ---
    The factory that produces
    Plavsky particle generators.
[04:57] ---
    May I please see it?
[05:00] ---
    The factory?
[05:02] ---
    If I understand the particle's
    manufacturing process,
[05:05] ---
    the matching of my Gunpla and the
    Plavsky particles will vastly improve.
[05:09] ---
    I can't think of any better way
    to strengthen my machine.
[05:14] ---
    I see.
[05:15] ---
    That's why he accepted our sponsorship.
[05:20] ---
    So what will you do?
[05:26] ---
    Alright.
[05:27] ---
    I'll talk to our management to see
    if I can get you permission.
[05:32] ---
    Thank you.
[05:33] ---
    But it might take some time
    before we can get you permission.
[05:39] ---
    Why don't we wait until
    the quarterfinals are over?
[05:43] ---
    Okay. Then if I get permission...
[05:47] ---
    We'll contact you straight away.
[05:55] ---
    Nils Nielsen.
[05:57] ---
    That's why this scientific genius
    suddenly entered the tournament.
[06:02] ---
    To find out the secret of
    the Plavsky particle.
[06:06] ---
    But you see, little boy...
[06:08] ---
    That secret...
[06:09] ---
    That place is off limits.
[06:13] ---
    The factory tour will be
    after the quarterfinals, eh?
[06:18] ---
    That's a very restrictive condition.
[06:20] ---
    There must be a reason.
[06:26] ---
    I'm... I'm scared, Baker.
[06:29] ---
    Don't worry anymore, Chairman.
[06:32] ---
    I-I mean, that boy...
[06:35] ---
    He doesn't seem to remember
    anything right now,
[06:38] ---
    but he could recall everything.
[06:40] ---
    Recall what?
[06:43] ---
    My secret.
[06:45] ---
    And the secret of the Plavsky particle—
[06:49] ---
    Back then, Chairman Mashita said...
[06:52] ---
    that "that boy" might recall his secret,
    and the secret of the Plavsky particle.
[06:56] ---
    The boy the Chairman fears...
[06:59] ---
    And why does my factory tour
    have to be after the quarterfinals?
[07:04] ---
    Judging from the situation,
[07:07] ---
    the boy must be my next opponent.
[07:12] ---
    Either Sei Iori or Reiji.
[07:16] ---
    One of those two must know the secret.
[07:21] ---
    If my deduction is correct, PPSE...
[07:24] ---
    No, Chairman Mashita himself
    wants to get them out of the tournament...
[07:29] ---
    ...before either of them recalls the secret.
[07:32] ---
    And that's why they approached me.
[07:35] ---
    So, even if I defeat them,
[07:39] ---
    I doubt I'll get a factory tour.
[07:42] ---
    It was just a verbal promise.
[07:44] ---
    They can make up
    any reason to call it off...
[07:46] ---
    Huh?
[07:49] ---
    Ow, ow, ow! I give up!
[07:52] ---
    Miss Caroline?! S-Sorry about that!
[07:55] ---
    You really are
    a master of martial arts.
[07:58] ---
    I just have a bit of
    experience in Aikido.
[08:01] ---
    Anyway, what are you doing here?
[08:03] ---
    You're saying I can't cheer
    for my boyfriend?
[08:10] ---
    Huh?
[08:11] ---
    B-Boyfriend?!
[08:12] ---
    Am I the boyfriend?!
[08:14] ---
    Of course.
[08:15] ---
    You accepted my dad's
    company's sponsorship.
[08:18] ---
    My dad's things are my things. Meaning...
[08:22] ---
    You're mine, too!
[08:27] ---
    That formula is incorrect!
[08:30] ---
    It doesn't follow reason or logic!
[08:33] ---
    I'm not good enough for you?
[08:37] ---
    Not good enough?!
[08:40] ---
    N-No, I'm honored.
[08:49] ---
    Tomorrow is the battle between
    Nils Nielsen, Sei and Reiji.
[08:53] ---
    We can't miss it.
[08:55] ---
    That boy Nils hasn't shown us
    his true power yet...
[09:00] ---
    The technique he used on Greco
    in the American final round.
[09:08] ---
    Who do you think will win?
[09:10] ---
    That's obvious.
[09:12] ---
    Whoever's feelings are strongest.
[09:19] ---
    I know what choice I have to make.
[09:23] ---
    The choice that takes me
    toward my goal the fastest.
[09:28] ---
    I'm sorry to take your time.
[09:31] ---
    Mr. Iori. Mr. Reiji.
[09:33] ---
    You can just call me Sei, Nils.
[09:36] ---
    Yeah, and just call me Reiji.
[09:38] ---
    Alright.
[09:40] ---
    So, what did you want from us?
[09:43] ---
    We have a battle tomorrow.
[09:45] ---
    Wouldn't it be bad if someone sees us
    meeting at a place like this?
[09:50] ---
    Sei. Reiji.
[09:51] ---
    Do you know the special properties
    of Plavsky particles?
[09:56] ---
    Huh?
[09:57] ---
    I just know they're special particles
    that can move Gunpla.
[10:01] ---
    Do you know how they're made?
[10:04] ---
    I don't know...
[10:06] ---
    How would I know?
[10:09] ---
    Please recall it.
[10:10] ---
    Recall?
[10:12] ---
    Yes.
[10:13] ---
    According to my deduction,
[10:15] ---
    one of you knows
    the secret of the particles.
[10:18] ---
    Us?
[10:20] ---
    Yes. I don't expect you to
    remember it right away.
[10:22] ---
    But when you do, if you promise
    that you'll tell me the secret,
[10:28] ---
    I'll withdraw from tomorrow's battle.
[10:33] ---
    Hey... What did you just say?
[10:35] ---
    I said I'll let you win.
[10:38] ---
    You...!
[10:40] ---
    Nils, are you serious?
[10:43] ---
    Of course.
[10:45] ---
    The whole reason I entered
    this championship...
[10:48] ---
    ...was to find PPSE's hidden method
    of generating Plavsky particles.
[10:54] ---
    Th-That's why you entered
    the championship...?
[10:57] ---
    You want to win the championship.
[11:01] ---
    It's a win-win.
[11:03] ---
    I can't believe it.
[11:05] ---
    What's the point of winning like that?
[11:09] ---
    Everyone in the tournament works
    so hard to build and fight Gunpla.
[11:13] ---
    Don't you know that?!
[11:16] ---
    I understand, but I can't relate to them.
[11:19] ---
    It's a mere battle of toys.
[11:22] ---
    The Plavsky particle could well have
    revolutionary applications in every field.
[11:29] ---
    If so, then revealing its secret
    will lead to scientific advancement.
[11:34] ---
    Do that somewhere else!
[11:36] ---
    This arena is for Gunpla Battle!
[11:39] ---
    This is the best way to
    get closer to the heart of PPSE!
[11:42] ---
    Don't insult those who
    are fighting in earnest!
[11:45] ---
    I'm in earnest, too!
[11:46] ---
    Your earnestness is different from ours!
[11:51] ---
    Reiji.
[11:52] ---
    Sei, there's no need
    to talk to this guy.
[11:56] ---
    So is this negotiation over?
[11:59] ---
    You said your name is Nils.
[12:01] ---
    If you want something, win it yourself
    and don't beg someone else.
[12:06] ---
    Win it myself?
[12:07] ---
    That's what I said.
[12:09] ---
    If you win tomorrow's battle,
    we'll do whatever you say!
[12:13] ---
    Is that okay, Sei?
[12:15] ---
    Yeah!
[12:17] ---
    I'll hold you to that.
[12:20] ---
    I'm strong, you know.
[12:23] ---
    Sure, your Gunpla's strong, but...
[12:29] ---
    We're going to win!
    We're going to win!
[12:36] ---
    We now begin match three
    of the quarterfinals.
[12:45] ---
    It looks like those
    two are fired up today.
[12:48] ---
    We're definitely gonna win, Sei!
[12:50] ---
    Yeah!
[12:51] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[12:57] ---
    Field 11, Castle.
[13:02] ---
    Sei Iori.
[13:03] ---
    Reiji.
[13:04] ---
    Star Build Strike!
[13:05] ---
    Let's go!
[13:08] ---
    Where is he, Sei?
[13:10] ---
    Over there!
[13:12] ---
    The castle tower!
[13:36] ---
    The beam was cut in half!
[13:38] ---
    Just as I thought,
    a rifle's no good against that.
[13:42] ---
    Iori.
[13:44] ---
    Not just the rifle.
[13:45] ---
    The particle-absorbing shield, too.
[13:49] ---
    It's useless against the Sengoku Astray
    that has no beam weapons.
[13:54] ---
    Just like you said, it's no use.
[13:57] ---
    Seems so.
[13:59] ---
    Then...
[14:02] ---
    Activating RG system!
[14:12] ---
    There's only one way!
[14:14] ---
    I see.
[14:16] ---
    That's not a wrong choice.
[14:19] ---
    But...
[14:20] ---
    No matter what you do,
    my victory is certain!
[14:26] ---
    Sorry!
[14:33] ---
    So fast!
[14:46] ---
    Take this!
[14:48] ---
    Build Knuckle!
[15:05] ---
    What?
[15:06] ---
    The acceleration of its fist
    made the particle band transform!
[15:12] ---
    Gotcha!
[15:26] ---
    Wh...?!
[15:27] ---
    What?!
    Wh...?!
[15:33] ---
    That technique is
    the one that beat Greco!
[15:37] ---
    People call this...
[15:38] ---
    ..."particle fa jin."
[15:41] ---
    Fa jin?!
[15:42] ---
    Mr. Ral, what's "fa jin?"
[15:45] ---
    It's the ultimate secret of
    the Chinese martial arts.
[15:48] ---
    By sending your own "chi" energy
    into the opponent's body,
[15:52] ---
    you can destroy them from within.
[15:54] ---
    A Gunpla used that technique?
[15:57] ---
    He probably used
    Plavsky particles instead of chi.
[16:02] ---
    That's odd.
[16:04] ---
    He named his Gunpla "Sengoku,"
    but he's using Chinese martial arts.
[16:09] ---
    I told you that I'm strong.
[16:16] ---
    Don't get too excited.
[16:20] ---
    Wh-What?!
[16:24] ---
    The Build Knuckle reached him!
[16:27] ---
    Reiji, one more attack!
[16:29] ---
    Yeah!
[16:32] ---
    How dare you!
[16:32] ---
    Build Knuckle!
[16:35] ---
    Particle fa jin!
[16:54] ---
    No! Do it!
[16:56] ---
    Not yet!
[16:59] ---
    Discontinued.
[17:02] ---
    What happened?
[17:05] ---
    May we have your attention.
[17:07] ---
    This battle has been temporarily suspended
    due to technical difficulties.
[17:11] ---
    After one minute for repairs,
    the battle will resume. Please stand by.
[17:18] ---
    I'll work on the right arm.
    Reiji, can you do the left one?
[17:22] ---
    Of course!
[17:30] ---
    How dare you hurt
    my perfectly built Astray...!
[17:35] ---
    How dare you...!
[17:38] ---
    Iori!
[17:41] ---
    Keep it up!
[17:46] ---
    Nils!
[17:49] ---
    Win for me!
[17:53] ---
    Please shut up.
[17:56] ---
    15 seconds until battle resumes.
[17:59] ---
    Restarting Plavsky particle dispersal.
[18:07] ---
    Sei, what are you doing?!
[18:09] ---
    Hurry!
[18:12] ---
    Sei!
[18:15] ---
    No, they'll be disqualified!
[18:17] ---
    Sei!
[18:21] ---
    Resuming battle.
[18:24] ---
    They made it!
[18:26] ---
    That's good!
[18:30] ---
    I'll beat you this time...
[18:34] ---
    ...with my Sengoku Astray!
[18:36] ---
    You're the one who'll get beaten!
[18:38] ---
    No, it's you guys.
[18:41] ---
    The winner will be...
[18:43] ---
    Me!
[18:45] ---
    Us!
    Us!
[18:50] ---
    Maximum power output!
[18:58] ---
    Wh-What's this reaction...?
[19:02] ---
    The fa jin particles didn't get through?
[19:07] ---
    The right arm is
    covered with instant glue!
[19:13] ---
    No wonder the particles
    couldn't get through.
[19:16] ---
    But in this state,
    its Build Knuckle can't—
[19:18] ---
    It can!
[19:22] ---
    By using the particles
    flowing through the Build Strike,
[19:25] ---
    our Gunpla can move!
[19:30] ---
    What nerve...!
[19:53] ---
    Particle fa jin!
[20:08] ---
    This is the last attack!
[20:12] ---
    RG...
[20:14] ---
    Build...
[20:16] ---
    ...Knuckle!
    ...Knuckle!
[20:26] ---
    Battle ended.
[20:31] ---
    They won!
[20:32] ---
    Yes!
[20:34] ---
    They did it!
[20:35] ---
    Oh my. I'm impressed.
[20:47] ---
    Nice, Sei!
[20:54] ---
    The next time we battle,
    I'll definitely win!
[21:00] ---
    I thought you were going to
    bring up that particle thing again.
[21:03] ---
    Huh?!
[21:05] ---
    Hey now, were you so caught up
    in the battle that you forgot?
[21:11] ---
    So you do like Gunpla, after all.
[21:16] ---
    We'll be your opponents anytime, Nils.
[21:19] ---
    But we're gonna win next time, too.
[21:26] ---
    Nils.
[21:27] ---
    Sorry about yesterday.
    I misunderstood you.
[21:30] ---
    After battling with you, I get it now.
[21:32] ---
    If we can do anything for you, just tell us.
[21:35] ---
    See you.
[21:40] ---
    Nils.
[21:43] ---
    I'm sorry, Caroline.
[21:45] ---
    I lost.
[21:47] ---
    You were great out there.
[21:49] ---
    No.
[21:50] ---
    I was so caught up
    in solving the mystery,
[21:53] ---
    that I didn't even understand myself.
[21:57] ---
    I like Gunpla.
[22:03] ---
    Don't worry.
[22:05] ---
    Yajima Trading will continue
    to give full support to you.
[22:12] ---
    Of course, so will I.
[22:15] ---
    Because I'm your girlfriend.

[00:03] ---
    Hello, this is the 1st Lab.
[00:06] ---
    Chief Allan.
[00:09] ---
    You want us to send you A5 right now?
[00:12] ---
    We've only just finished phase three.
[00:16] ---
    I'll make the final adjustments.
[00:18] ---
    But the armament—
[00:19] ---
    I told you, I'll do it.
[00:22] ---
    Alright.
[00:26] ---
    Cease development.
[00:28] ---
    We're rolling out A5.
[00:30] ---
    Are you serious?
[00:31] ---
    No way.
[00:32] ---
    It's the chief's order. Do as he says.
[00:41] ---
    Although it's incomplete,
    it's the strongest Gunpla in history.
[00:46] ---
    Is the World Tournament
    getting so unpredictable...
[00:49] ---
    ...that Chief Allan actually
    needs this machine?
[00:55] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[01:00] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[01:03] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky
    Mou ichido ano sora e
[01:07] ---
    I built, destroyed, and built again
    Tsukuriagetemo kowashite mata tsukutte
[01:10] ---
    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[01:13] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[01:17] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[01:21] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[01:23] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[01:29] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)
[01:31] ---
    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!
    Me wo samashina tsuyosa wa meikaku
[01:34] ---
    Break through destiny (Fight for yourself!)
    Sadame nante kowase (Fight for yourself!)
[01:36] ---
    Don't look away (Fly again!)
    Me sorasuna (Fly again!)
[01:39] ---
    When you wish to become stronger,
    Tsuyoku naritai to negau koto de
[01:44] ---
    Your wings that once trembled...
    Furueteta hane wa
[01:46] ---
    ...will cut through the darkness
    Yami wo kirisaiteku
[01:50] ---
    I won't be afraid, with you by my side
    Kimi ga iru kara mo kowakunai yo
[01:57] ---
    I grasp your hand in mine
    Sono te nigitte
[02:00] ---
    Because you told me...
    Yowasa datte
[02:01] ---
    ...that my weakness is my strength
    Kimi no tsuyosa to oshiete kureta kara
[02:07] ---
    I was able to stand up again
    Boku wa mata tachiagareta
[02:11] ---
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete
[02:18] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete

    Let's start now, and fly into the sky once again
    Koko kara mou ichido ano sora e
[02:20] ---
    Let's start now, and fly into the sky once again
    Koko kara mou ichido ano sora e
[02:33] ---
    Thank you for coming
    all this way, Chairman.
[02:36] ---
    Yeah.
[02:37] ---
    It looks like you're still winning.
[02:40] ---
    We're now in the best eight.
[02:42] ---
    We hope to make best four
    in tomorrow's quarterfinals.
[02:45] ---
    All I want is the championship trophy.
[02:48] ---
    That's why I invested big bucks
    in the Flana Institute.
[02:52] ---
    We appreciate it.
[02:54] ---
    Just win. That's an order.
[02:56] ---
    Yes!
[02:57] ---
    Grandpa! Grandpa!
[03:00] ---
    What now, Lucas?!
[03:02] ---
    I can watch Gunpla Battle
    tomorrow, right?
[03:06] ---
    Yeah, you can.
[03:08] ---
    Your team's gonna win, right?
[03:10] ---
    But of course.
[03:12] ---
    Because I'm going to give you...
[03:15] ---
    ...a nice big trophy for
    your birthday present.
[03:19] ---
    Thank you, Grandpa!
[03:32] ---
    So he got involved in
    Gunpla Battle for his grandson.
[03:37] ---
    That's a crazy indulgence,
    but he's an important sponsor for us.
[03:43] ---
    We'll just have to humor him.
[03:45] ---
    What rubbish.
[03:46] ---
    Hmm? Did you say something?
[03:49] ---
    No.
[03:50] ---
    I'll do my best for Nemesis' victory.
[03:55] ---
    Episode 20
    Aila's Betrayal
[04:03] ---
    Those two are still winning?!
[04:07] ---
    They're in the best four?!
[04:09] ---
    You said, "Leave it to me!"
[04:12] ---
    Explain yourself, Miss Baker!
[04:15] ---
    Huh?
[04:16] ---
    Hey! Where are you?
[04:18] ---
    Miss Baker!
[04:24] ---
    Sei Iori. Reiji.
[04:26] ---
    I never imagined that
    you'd beat Nils Nielsen.
[04:32] ---
    Now, close your eyes.
[04:35] ---
    Correct your posture and breathing.
[04:39] ---
    Clear your mind.
[04:43] ---
    Go to the depths of your memory.
[04:46] ---
    Where the secret of
    the Plavsky particle is sleeping...
[04:51] ---
    He's asleep?!
[04:52] ---
    Nils.
[04:54] ---
    I don't think Reiji knows anything.
[04:56] ---
    Then, do you know the secret?
[05:00] ---
    I don't know, either.
[05:02] ---
    The only person I can think of
    who might know something is my dad.
[05:06] ---
    Your dad?
[05:08] ---
    Yeah. He's the manager of our store.
[05:12] ---
    I heard that, about ten years ago,
    he was involved as a monitor...
[05:16] ---
    ...in the development of
    the Gunpla Battle system.
[05:23] ---
    Rin, come home soon.
[05:26] ---
    That's it!
[05:28] ---
    Ten years ago,
    you were three years old!
[05:31] ---
    If you saw something when
    your dad was helping develop it,
[05:36] ---
    the memory would be stored
    in the depths of your consciousness!
[05:41] ---
    Don't you think so?
[05:43] ---
    I... I'm not sure.
[05:46] ---
    May I try?
[05:48] ---
    Try what?
[05:51] ---
    Awakening your memory with hypnotherapy.
[05:55] ---
    I have to repair the Star Build Strike.
[05:58] ---
    I'll help you when we're done.
[06:00] ---
    It'll just take a minute.
[06:03] ---
    Wait...
[06:05] ---
    No, I can't wait.
[06:07] ---
    You two seem to be having fun.
[06:10] ---
    Mao?!
[06:13] ---
    Misaki!
[06:14] ---
    What?!
[06:15] ---
    Mi...sa...ki!
[06:19] ---
    Shut up!
[06:21] ---
    I can't sleep, Mao.
[06:22] ---
    Mr. Reiji, how could you do that
    to a heartbroken guy?!
[06:26] ---
    What, you wanna fight?!
[06:28] ---
    Mr. Reiji, you moron!
[06:30] ---
    Stop it, Reiji! You too, Mao!
[06:33] ---
    Alright Sei, let's start the hypnotherapy.
[06:36] ---
    With all this going on?
[06:39] ---
    Man, those kids are so annoying.
[06:44] ---
    I'm nervous with
    the quarterfinals coming up.
[06:49] ---
    Well, it's a little early, but...
[06:52] ---
    Let's go, my partner.
[07:02] ---
    Mr. Ral.
[07:03] ---
    I'm sorry I'm not Kirara.
[07:06] ---
    She already headed
    to the arena for work.
[07:11] ---
    Thank you for your concern, Lieutenant.
[07:15] ---
    The quarterfinals are finally here.
[07:18] ---
    Yes.
[07:19] ---
    Your opponent is Aila Jyrkiäinen, who
    beat the previous champion, Carlos Kaiser,
[07:24] ---
    and has kept her undefeated record
    in the World Tournament.
[07:31] ---
    Yeah, that's a pretty tall order.
[07:33] ---
    Do you have a chance?
[07:35] ---
    I'll manage to find one.
[07:38] ---
    They're waiting for me
    in the semifinals.
[07:41] ---
    It was a draw in the qualifiers...
[07:44] ---
    ...we have to settle it once and for all.
[07:53] ---
    The best of luck.
[07:57] ---
    You, the famous "Blue Giant,"
    wishing me luck...
[08:01] ---
    It's reassuring.
[08:10] ---
    The Wing Gundam Fenice.
[08:12] ---
    Its firepower and mobility,
    its support mecha,
[08:16] ---
    and the control techniques
    of its fighter, Ricardo Fellini.
[08:21] ---
    All of them are class S.
[08:24] ---
    There's no problem.
[08:26] ---
    Keep your guard up.
[08:27] ---
    I know.
[08:31] ---
    If I win this battle,
    my next opponent is...
[08:37] ---
    Please stop.
[08:38] ---
    If you want to deploy the Gundam so badly,
    you should go out in it yourself!
[08:45] ---
    You... You hit me!
[08:47] ---
    Do you really think
    I'm such a petty person?!
[08:53] ---
    You hit me again!
[08:55] ---
    Not even my father ever hit me!
[08:58] ---
    That's it! I refuse to go on!
[09:00] ---
    Mao, what's Sei talking about?
[09:04] ---
    He's saying Amuro Ray's lines
    from the anime Mobile Suit Gundam.
[09:07] ---
    He's reached episode nine.
[09:10] ---
    His subconscious memories from age 3
    are filled with Gundam dialogue.
[09:16] ---
    Miss Matilda...
[09:17] ---
    Sei...
    Miss Matilda...
[09:18] ---
    Sei...
[09:19] ---
    You're a real Gundam freak.
[09:23] ---
    Incredible! The youngest team, Sei Iori
    and Reiji, have advanced to the best four!
[09:29] ---
    What's the motivation
    behind their rise?
[09:31] ---
    Right! I'd like to interview Sei Iori's
    classmate, Miss China Kousaka.
[09:38] ---
    So, my first question! Would you
    tell me what Iori is like at school?
[09:42] ---
    D-During class...?
[09:44] ---
    He often secretly sketches
    ideas for his Gunpla.
[09:49] ---
    That's not good for his education.
[09:54] ---
    Oh, no, that came out wrong!
[09:55] ---
    I made a mistake...
[09:56] ---
    Oh, Sei... You're so...!
    I made a mistake...
[09:58] ---
    Oh, Sei... You're so...!
[10:05] ---
    Fellini.
[10:08] ---
    Go get 'em.
[10:11] ---
    Now you'll see...
[10:13] ---
    The Italian Dandy's not just for show.
[10:21] ---
    We now begin match four
    of the quarterfinals.
[10:25] ---
    After this battle,
    the best four will be decided.
[10:30] ---
    Are you ready, Aila?
[10:32] ---
    I can do it.
[10:34] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[10:45] ---
    Field 4, Mountain.
[10:50] ---
    Team Nemesis, Qubeley Papillon.
[10:54] ---
    Here I go.
[11:09] ---
    Now, allow me to seduce you,
    O legendary undefeated...
[11:13] ---
    ...Señorita!
[11:18] ---
    Launch funnels!
[11:20] ---
    Roger that.
[11:24] ---
    They're clear funnels.
[11:44] ---
    The funnels aren't fast enough.
[11:48] ---
    Aila, what happened?
[11:50] ---
    Aila!
[11:53] ---
    If I win this battle,
    my next opponent is...
[11:57] ---
    At this speed, the funnels can't keep up.
[12:05] ---
    They're invisible,
[12:07] ---
    but if I can locate them...
[12:17] ---
    All the clear funnels
    have been wiped out?!
[12:20] ---
    Aila!
[12:23] ---
    Aila!
[12:32] ---
    The undefeated machine
    has taken its first direct hit!
[12:43] ---
    This time they're visible!
[13:01] ---
    Honestly! I can't believe how
    long that interview took!
[13:09] ---
    The battle...
[13:19] ---
    Fellini.
[13:21] ---
    Mr. Ral.
[13:23] ---
    Ricardo Fellini is fighting very well.
[13:30] ---
    I'll wipe you out!
[13:42] ---
    Grandpa.
[13:43] ---
    Your Gunpla is...
[13:45] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[13:47] ---
    It'll make a comeback soon.
[13:49] ---
    Just wait a little longer.
[13:51] ---
    Okay.
[14:03] ---
    Yes!
[14:10] ---
    Aila's Embody numbers
    are getting lower.
[14:14] ---
    Why?
[14:16] ---
    What are you doing?
    You're letting him beat you.
[14:19] ---
    Ch-Chairman?!
[14:21] ---
    My grandson wants to see
    an overwhelming Nemesis victory.
[14:25] ---
    Sorry, but there's a problem
    with the Embody numbers...
[14:28] ---
    Then switch to full output right now.
[14:31] ---
    B-But Aila's body will...!
[14:33] ---
    I don't care.
[14:35] ---
    Just win this match.
[14:38] ---
    If she becomes useless,
    then use another one next time.
[14:43] ---
    That's my order as your sponsor.
[14:46] ---
    I-I understand.
[14:50] ---
    He gets hung up on trivial details.
[14:57] ---
    Don't blame me.
[14:59] ---
    It's your fault for being off your game.
[15:05] ---
    What?!
[15:17] ---
    If you want to be released,
    beat him immediately!
[15:27] ---
    The Qubeley stopped moving?
[15:30] ---
    A control error?
[15:31] ---
    Or did she finally...
[15:34] ---
    ...fall for my charms?
[16:00] ---
    What?!
[16:05] ---
    Why?!
[16:16] ---
    Because of Sei, we're late again.
[16:19] ---
    What are you saying?
[16:21] ---
    You're the one who's
    always late, Mr. Reiji.
[16:24] ---
    No, it's Sei's fault this time.
[16:26] ---
    It's because Nils was hypnotizing me!
[16:30] ---
    That was unanticipated.
[16:32] ---
    I never imagined that
    you'd remain in a trance,
[16:35] ---
    until you'd recited the dialogue
    of all 43 Gundam episodes!
[16:38] ---
    Just hurry up,
    or Fellini's battle will be over!
[16:45] ---
    How's Fellini?
[16:48] ---
    Wh-What?
[16:53] ---
    The Wing Gundam Fenice...!
[16:55] ---
    Why is it so badly damaged?!
[17:00] ---
    What about his opponent...?
[17:02] ---
    Aila Jyrkiäinen's Qubeley?
[17:07] ---
    It's barely scratched.
[17:10] ---
    No way...
[17:12] ---
    Mr. Fellini is losing that badly?
[17:17] ---
    Sh-She can read my moves perfectly.
[17:21] ---
    Is that the secret of her strength?
[17:26] ---
    But it's not over yet!
[17:31] ---
    Not just yet!
[17:43] ---
    Give it up, Fellini!
[17:44] ---
    You can't fight like this!
[17:46] ---
    Don't talk nonsense!
[17:49] ---
    I...
[17:51] ---
    I can't give in so easily!
[18:08] ---
    What is it doing?!
[18:10] ---
    It can't be...!
[18:11] ---
    No!
[18:13] ---
    I'm inviting you to...
[18:17] ---
    ...my self-destruction show.
[18:21] ---
    This is the final curtain call
    for the Italian Dandy!
[18:26] ---
    Coward!
[18:30] ---
    Kirara?!
[18:31] ---
    You're so full of yourself.
[18:33] ---
    Blow yourself up along with an opponent?
    You must be kidding!
[18:37] ---
    What are you fighting for?
[18:40] ---
    To win, right?!
[18:42] ---
    Even if you lose today, win tomorrow!
[18:45] ---
    If not tomorrow, the day after tomorrow!
[18:48] ---
    Together with your Fenice!
[18:54] ---
    Listen to you.
[19:04] ---
    You're right.
    This isn't very cool.
[19:08] ---
    Not cool at all.
[19:11] ---
    Fellini.
[19:16] ---
    We wish to inform the audience...
[19:19] ---
    ...that with the concession
    of Ricardo Fellini,
[19:22] ---
    Aila Jyrkiäinen is the winner.
[19:25] ---
    Mr. Fellini...
[19:27] ---
    He lost...
[19:29] ---
    Mr. Sei. Mr. Reiji.
[19:32] ---
    What?!
[19:40] ---
    What are you doing, Aila?!
    The battle is already—
[19:48] ---
    The Embody output was so high
    that her consciousness is...
[20:08] ---
    Stop...
[20:10] ---
    Fenice...
[20:13] ---
    Stop.
[20:16] ---
    Stop it!!
[20:18] ---
    You bastard!!
[20:26] ---
    What are you doing?!
[20:29] ---
    The battle has already been decided!
[20:33] ---
    Reiji?!
[20:36] ---
    You won the fight. So...
[20:39] ---
    ...stay away from him!
[20:53] ---
    Reiji's Beginning!
[20:55] ---
    It's only a straight assembly, but still...
[20:57] ---
    It shouldn't have broken that easily!
[21:01] ---
    Wh-What...
[21:04] ---
    What was that move?
[21:08] ---
    What the heck are you?!
[21:25] ---
    I was nibbling potato chips and it hit me
    Poteto chippusu tabetetara futo omotta
[21:28] ---
    (Hold dear my days)
[21:31] ---
    How many years have I been eating the same thing?

[21:37] ---
    People tell me I need to act my age
    Mou otona nandakara tte iu kedo

    (I go my way)
[21:43] ---
    But it's not like I can turn against something I love
    Suki na mono wo kirai ni nareru wake nado nainda
[21:47] ---
    (Normal life)
[21:48] ---
    I put all my energy into childish things

    True, our stride is a little longer now
    Maa hohaba wa sukoshi dake ookiku natta keredo
[22:12] ---
    The sunset from back then colors our skies today
    Ano hi no yuuhi wa kyou mo sora wo someyuku

    I want to be a fool tomorrow,
    Nee ashita mo gojuunengo mo

    and even 50 years from now
    Baka yattetainda

    The short-pants spirit goes on

[22:27] ---
    Let's whistle a tune and head home
    Kuchibue fuite kaerou
[22:32] ---
    The never-ending short-pants spirit
    Never-ending hanpan supirit
[22:35] ---
    Our childhood will go on forever
    Owaranai childhood
[22:44] ---
    Battle aborted.
[22:51] ---
    Aila?!
[22:53] ---
    How dare you do that.
[22:58] ---
    I'll never forgive you!
[22:59] ---
    Reiji?!
[23:00] ---
    Aila?
[23:02] ---
    Aila.
[23:03] ---
    Aila!
[23:05] ---
    Open your eyes!
[23:13] ---
    I...
[23:14] ---
    Why did I...?
[23:17] ---
    Hey, you're...
[23:24] ---
    Rei... ji?
[23:34] ---
    Aina... What are you doing?
[23:41] ---
    Hey...
[23:48] ---
    I said what are you doing, Aina?!
[23:54] ---

[00:01] ---
    Hey, Aina... What are you doing?
[00:06] ---
    I said what are you doing, Aina?!
[00:09] ---
    You must have the wrong person.
[00:11] ---
    Her name is Aila, not Aina.
[00:14] ---
    I don't care what her name is!
[00:16] ---
    Or that she hid being a fighter!
[00:19] ---
    But I'll tell you one thing.
[00:24] ---
    The way you fought back there...
[00:28] ---
    I'll never forgive you!
[00:30] ---
    We'll beat you!
[00:31] ---
    In our next battle,
    we'll beat you for sure!
[00:35] ---
    On the honor and pride
    of the Royal House of Arian!
[00:43] ---
    Arian...
[00:45] ---
    Just as I thought,
    that boy is the Prince of Arian!
[00:50] ---
    Aria von Reiji Asuna!
[00:54] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[00:59] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[01:02] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky
    Mou ichido ano sora e
[01:06] ---
    I built, destroyed, and built again
    Tsukuriagetemo kowashite mata tsukutte
[01:09] ---
    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[01:12] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[01:16] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[01:20] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[01:22] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[01:28] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)
[01:30] ---
    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!
    Me wo samashina tsuyosa wa meikaku
[01:33] ---
    Break through destiny (Fight for yourself!)
    Sadame nante kowase (Fight for yourself!)
[01:36] ---
    Don't look away (Fly again!)
    Me sorasuna (Fly again!)
[01:38] ---
    When you wish to become stronger,
    Tsuyoku naritai to negau koto de
[01:43] ---
    Your wings that once trembled...
    Furueteta hane wa
[01:45] ---
    ...will cut through the darkness
    Yami wo kirisaiteku
[01:49] ---
    I won't be afraid, with you by my side
    Kimi ga iru kara mo kowakunai yo
[01:56] ---
    I grasp your hand in mine
    Sono te nigitte
[01:59] ---
    Because you told me...
    Yowasa datte
[02:00] ---
    ...that my weakness is my strength
    Kimi no tsuyosa to oshiete kureta kara
[02:06] ---
    I was able to stand up again
    Boku wa mata tachiagareta
[02:10] ---
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete
[02:17] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete
[02:17] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
    Let's start now, and fly into the sky once again
    Koko kara mou ichido ano sora e
[02:19] ---
    Let's start now, and fly into the sky once again
    Koko kara mou ichido ano sora e
[02:24] ---
    So that really was Miss Aina.
[02:28] ---
    But why give us a fake name?
[02:31] ---
    Because she fights in such a cruel way,
[02:34] ---
    maybe she didn't want us to know.
[02:37] ---
    Yeah, the way she fought...
[02:40] ---
    I barely know her.
[02:42] ---
    But I can't believe that Miss Aina...
[02:44] ---
    No, Miss Aila, would do such a thing.
[02:49] ---
    Don't you agree, Class Rep?
[02:51] ---
    Yes.
[02:52] ---
    Maybe the suit she wears has
    some sort of special system.
[02:57] ---
    Like the Berserker System in G Gundam?
[03:01] ---
    No way.
[03:02] ---
    You'd be disqualified for
    violating the tournament rules.
[03:06] ---
    Then what other reason...
[03:09] ---
    The reason doesn't matter.
[03:12] ---
    She... That woman...
[03:15] ---
    She's a despicable Gunpla fighter
    who doesn't respect her opponent!
[03:22] ---
    Do you really think that?
[03:25] ---
    Are you okay with that, Reiji?
[03:28] ---
    I don't care about her.
[03:30] ---
    She's our enemy.
[03:32] ---
    We'll wipe her out in our next battle!
[03:35] ---
    That's all there is to it.
[03:40] ---
    Why did this happen?
[03:43] ---
    I think the one who's
    wondering that the most...
[03:47] ---
    ...must be Reiji himself.
[03:51] ---
    Episode 21
    Amid the Glittering Particles
[03:56] ---
    How is Aila?
[03:58] ---
    Brainwaves and pulse are both normal.
[04:01] ---
    Her body is perfectly healthy.
[04:03] ---
    Then why did Aila's Embody
    synch rate drop in the quarterfinals?
[04:09] ---
    It's probably a psychological thing.
[04:11] ---
    The reason isn't clear, but...
[04:13] ---
    ...she's subconsciously refusing
    to play Gunpla Battle.
[04:18] ---
    She doesn't want to fight?
[04:20] ---
    Is she affected by that boy Reiji?
[04:25] ---
    The Flana Institute's masterpiece
    is weakened by a little crush?
[04:41] ---
    She was right again!
[04:42] ---
    Wow, Aila!
[04:44] ---
    Like you said, the red Gunpla won.
[04:47] ---
    You guessed it right 47 times in a row!
[04:49] ---
    How do you know who'll win?
[04:51] ---
    I want to know that, too.
[04:55] ---
    Would you teach me?
[04:58] ---
    I feel it.
[05:00] ---
    I feel the glittering stuff
    flowing around that toy.
[05:04] ---
    From the flow,
    I can tell what it'll do next,
[05:08] ---
    and also which one is stronger.
[05:11] ---
    Sh-She can sense the movement
    of the Plavsky particles...?!
[05:17] ---
    Incredible. Instead of Gunpla
    building mastery or control skills...
[05:23] ---
    This is a third talent.
[05:28] ---
    The red one will move to the right.
[05:30] ---
    The blue one will
    move down, then back.
[05:33] ---
    Red will move forward,
    blue to the left, and then up.
[05:36] ---
    Her accuracy rate is 87.3 percent.
    Red will move forward,
    blue to the left, and then up.
[05:37] ---
    Her accuracy rate is 87.3 percent.
[05:39] ---
    It's unbelievable.
[05:41] ---
    We can use her.
[05:44] ---
    Make it 100 percent.
[05:46] ---
    We'll try.
[05:48] ---
    Particle visibility rate is 99.97 percent.
[05:52] ---
    Embody system is stable.
[05:55] ---
    Embody.
[05:57] ---
    It's a system that links
    with Aila's brainwaves...
[06:01] ---
    ...and visualizes the particles
    on a head-mounted display.
[06:04] ---
    It's like a supernatural
    precognitive ability.
[06:08] ---
    Nobody can hurt a girl
    who can see the future.
[06:13] ---
    Any possibility that Embody might be
    against the championship rules?
[06:17] ---
    It won't respond when
    anyone else wears it.
[06:21] ---
    As far as they can tell,
    it's just a cosplay outfit.
[06:25] ---
    It's finally complete.
[06:30] ---
    Aila,
[06:31] ---
    we've devoted time and money to you.
[06:35] ---
    We'll do whatever it takes,
[06:37] ---
    because we can't afford to lose.
[06:48] ---
    Reiji...
[07:00] ---
    Darn.
[07:01] ---
    How frustrating!
[07:05] ---
    You seem to be in a bad mood.
[07:10] ---
    Eh, Reiji?
[07:12] ---
    Fellini.
[07:15] ---
    Sorry about your battle today.
[07:17] ---
    Yeah, thanks.
[07:19] ---
    Leave the rest to us.
[07:21] ---
    Sei and I will avenge you.
[07:24] ---
    That rotten Gunpla fighter will...
[07:26] ---
    It's none of your business.
[07:28] ---
    Or are you unable to fight her
    without using me as an excuse?
[07:35] ---
    If you have to hate your opponent
    when you battle, then just quit now.
[07:40] ---
    So much for the Italian Dandy.
[07:42] ---
    To think, I fought to a draw
    with such a snot-nosed kid.
[07:45] ---
    Are you picking a fight?
[07:47] ---
    You only just figured that out?
[07:49] ---
    You're not very bright.
[07:52] ---
    Fellini!
[08:00] ---
    What are you doing, Aila?
    It's time for training.
[08:03] ---
    I'm quitting.
[08:05] ---
    What is this place?
[08:06] ---
    Training and testing, day in and out.
[08:11] ---
    I can't stand it.
[08:13] ---
    You're paid more than enough for it.
[08:15] ---
    If you're still unsatisfied,
    then go back home!
[08:20] ---
    Back to that life of poverty!
[08:23] ---
    O-Okay.
[08:27] ---
    And correct your vulgar tongue.
[08:30] ---
    I-I understand, Doctor.
[08:55] ---
    Wearing this suit makes my head numb.
[09:01] ---
    Why are they making me do this?
[09:06] ---
    Who cares about Gunpla Battle?
[09:09] ---
    It's ridiculous.
[09:11] ---
    So ridiculous.
[09:13] ---
    So ridiculous!
[09:17] ---
    I just want a normal...
[09:23] ---
    A normal...!
[09:31] ---
    We'll beat you!
[09:36] ---
    Does it hurt?
[09:41] ---
    If it hurts, close your eyes
    and cover your ears.
[09:45] ---
    If you close your eyes,
    you don't have to see his face.
[09:48] ---
    If you cover your ears,
    you don't have to hear him.
[09:52] ---
    This is business.
[09:54] ---
    Results are everything.
[09:56] ---
    Forget your emotions.
    Don't be sentimental.
[09:59] ---
    All you have to do is win.
[10:03] ---
    Win the next match,
    and the ones after that.
[10:11] ---
    Ouch, ouch.
[10:12] ---
    M-More gently...
[10:15] ---
    Fighting a kid? Really?
[10:17] ---
    Words weren't going to
    reach him. I had no choice.
[10:21] ---
    Especially since we're men.
[10:24] ---
    You're too kind.
[10:26] ---
    I did it to warn myself, too.
[10:29] ---
    Don't fight out of hatred.
[10:31] ---
    I want them to enjoy
    their battles, instead.
[10:37] ---
    Darn.
[10:41] ---
    That Fellini.
[10:43] ---
    What does he want me to do?
[10:46] ---
    What should I do...?
[10:55] ---
    What can I do?
[10:58] ---
    What is it that I can do
    for Reiji and Miss Aila?
[11:11] ---
    Miss Baker!
[11:12] ---
    It'll be okay this time, right? Right?!
[11:16] ---
    Of course, Chairman.
[11:18] ---
    There's no need for tricks anymore.
[11:20] ---
    Because their opponent
    is the undefeated legend,
[11:23] ---
    Aila Jyrkiäinen.
[11:29] ---
    Miss Aila!
[11:33] ---
    Good luck in today's battle!
[11:35] ---
    I'm cheering for you!
[11:37] ---
    This is a charm for you.
[11:40] ---
    Accept it.
[11:44] ---
    We've got to get to our match.
[11:46] ---
    Yes, sir. Thank you.
[11:49] ---
    Start learning how to please fans.
[11:52] ---
    Wear that on you.
[11:54] ---
    Yes, sir.
[12:00] ---
    We now begin match one
    of the semifinals.
[12:05] ---
    The time has come.
[12:07] ---
    Yeah.
[12:08] ---
    Sei and Reiji are coming.
[12:11] ---
    Is Reiji alright?
[12:14] ---
    He's pretty tough.
[12:17] ---
    You fought with him,
    so you know that, right?
[12:22] ---
    Yeah.
[12:47] ---
    Hey, Sei.
[12:48] ---
    What?
[12:49] ---
    I thought hard, but
    I couldn't find an answer at all.
[12:53] ---
    So...
[12:55] ---
    I've decided not to think.
[12:58] ---
    You don't mind, do you?
[13:02] ---
    Fine!
[13:03] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[13:09] ---
    Field 3, Forest.
[13:13] ---
    Sei Iori.
[13:14] ---
    Reiji.
[13:15] ---
    Star Build Strike.
[13:16] ---
    Here we come!
[13:30] ---
    Aina...
[13:32] ---
    Wait, or is it Aila?
[13:34] ---
    Whatever.
[13:36] ---
    Finish it quick.
[13:40] ---
    Let's get going!
[13:50] ---
    Fire the vulcans!
[13:59] ---
    He put special paint in the shells?
[14:03] ---
    That's our Mr. Sei!
[14:04] ---
    If I can see them, they're nothing!
[14:16] ---
    You're finished.
[14:25] ---
    The Embody numbers are...
[14:28] ---
    Fight, Aila!
[14:29] ---
    You want to go back to your old life?!
[14:35] ---
    Women are so hard to manage!
[14:54] ---
    It's just like when she fought Mr. Fellini!
[14:56] ---
    Bring it on!
[15:17] ---
    She foresaw that?
[15:37] ---
    Do it.
[15:52] ---
    Aila!
[16:05] ---
    I can't hit it!
[16:07] ---
    Of course not.
[16:08] ---
    Through the Embody,
    Aila can see the particle flow.
[16:13] ---
    Finish it off, Aila!
[16:17] ---
    No...
[16:33] ---
    Iori!
[16:38] ---
    Darn it!
[16:41] ---
    No...!
[16:47] ---
    What?
[16:48] ---
    Help me.
[16:49] ---
    This voice...
[16:52] ---
    What's this?!
[16:57] ---
    What's that light?!
[16:59] ---
    The Plavsky particles are increasing!
[17:02] ---
    Chairman, something is glowing!
[17:08] ---
    Arista is...!
[17:10] ---
    What's this phenomenon?!
[17:11] ---
    This light...
[17:13] ---
    Could it be the light of the heart?
[17:22] ---
    It hurts...
[17:25] ---
    My head hurts so bad.
[17:27] ---
    I don't want to fight anymore!
[17:31] ---
    You weren't doing it willingly?
[17:34] ---
    Then you should quit.
[17:36] ---
    I can't!
[17:37] ---
    I don't have any family or relatives.
[17:41] ---
    To survive, I have to fight.
[17:44] ---
    If I don't win, I'll have nowhere to live.
[17:48] ---
    You can live any place you want.
[17:55] ---
    I'm also a drifter here,
    but I'm surviving.
[17:59] ---
    I know!
[18:00] ---
    Come to Sei's house.
[18:02] ---
    I'm staying there, too.
[18:03] ---
    They won't mind an extra person.
[18:08] ---
    Are you serious?
[18:11] ---
    I'm always serious.
[18:38] ---
    Yeah.
[18:41] ---
    You're always...
[18:44] ---
    ...so foolishly serious.
[18:56] ---
    The Embody number is zero?!
[18:59] ---
    Why?
[19:01] ---
    Oh, man.
[19:03] ---
    If you were worried,
    why didn't you just say so?
[19:05] ---
    Why hide your identity?
[19:08] ---
    I mean...
[19:10] ---
    You love playing Gunpla Battle.
[19:14] ---
    But if you fight against me,
    I'll defeat you.
[19:17] ---
    If that happens, then we can't keep...
[19:20] ---
    What?!
[19:21] ---
    I'm the one who's gonna win.
[19:24] ---
    You fool!
[19:26] ---
    Wh... Who...
[19:27] ---
    Who are you calling a fool?!
[19:31] ---
    You're the fool!
[19:34] ---
    Say that again!
[19:36] ---
    Fool! Fool! Your punch is weak!
[19:39] ---
    Hah! You were crying just now!
[19:42] ---
    No, I wasn't!
    I absolutely was not!
[19:45] ---
    Yes you were!
[19:46] ---
    No, I was not!
[19:48] ---
    Is this a lover's spat?
[19:49] ---
    I told him to enjoy the battle,
    not flirt his way through it.
[19:53] ---
    I thought you wanted
    to quit Gunpla Battle.
[19:56] ---
    Never!
[19:57] ---
    Not until I smash you to pieces!
[20:00] ---
    Stop it, Aila!
[20:01] ---
    No! I won't listen to you anymore!
[20:04] ---
    Aila, what are you doing?!
[20:06] ---
    Shut up, old geezer!
[20:08] ---
    And you, kid! If you want to win
    at Gunpla Battle, play it yourself!
[20:12] ---
    Y-Yes, ma'am!
[20:15] ---
    Let's go, Reiji.
[20:16] ---
    I'll show you how strong I am
    when I'm battling in earnest.
[20:20] ---
    Watch me!
[20:22] ---
    That's the spirit!
[20:33] ---
    Sei, use the RG!
[20:35] ---
    Uh, right!
[20:44] ---
    Build...
[20:46] ---
    ...Knuckle!
[20:49] ---
    Useless.
[20:50] ---
    I can feel the particles.
    An attack like that will never hit me!
[20:56] ---
    What's this...?
[20:58] ---
    I can't dodge it!
[21:00] ---
    Take this,
[21:01] ---
    Aila!
[21:16] ---
    Battle ended.
[21:20] ---
    This is real Gunpla Battle.
[21:25] ---
    I see. I'm not special after all.
[21:45] ---
    I was nibbling potato chips and it hit me
    Poteto chippusu tabetetara futo omotta
[21:48] ---
    (Hold dear my days)
[21:51] ---
    How many years have I been eating the same thing?
    Nanjuunen onaji mon tabetsuzuketeirun darou
[21:55] ---
    (Fight your fears)
[21:57] ---
    People tell me I need to act my age
    Mou otona nandakara tte iu kedo
[22:00] ---
    (I go my way)
[22:03] ---
    But it's not like I can turn against something I love
    Suki na mono wo kirai ni nareru wake nado nainda
[22:07] ---
    (Normal life)
[22:08] ---
    I put all my energy into childish things
    Taai nai koto mo zenryoku toukyuu
[22:13] ---
    Doesn't matter if you're young or old,
    Muchuu ni nareru kodomo mo
[22:17] ---
    you can lose yourself in something
    Otona mo kankei nai
[22:20] ---
    Let's keep on walking at the same rhythm
    Kawaranai rizumu de arukitsuzukete yukou
[22:26] ---
    True, our stride is a little longer now
    Maa hohaba wa sukoshi dake ookiku natta keredo
[22:32] ---
    The sunset from back then colors our skies today
    Ano hi no yuuhi wa kyou mo sora wo someyuku
[22:38] ---
    I want to be a fool tomorrow,
    Nee ashita mo gojuunengo mo
[22:41] ---
    and even 50 years from now
    Baka yattetainda
[22:44] ---
    The short-pants spirit goes on
    Tsuzuite yuku hanpan supirit
[22:47] ---
    Let's whistle a tune and head home
    Kuchibue fuite kaerou
[22:52] ---
    The never-ending short-pants spirit
    Never-ending hanpan supirit
[22:55] ---
    Our childhood will go on forever
    Owaranai childhood
[23:03] ---
    Thanks for the silly errand, Class Rep.
[23:06] ---
    Not at all.
[23:07] ---
    That was all I could do for them.
    I wasn't sure if it would work.
[23:12] ---
    But I just hoped that...
[23:16] ---
    ...Miss Aila's wishes would reach Reiji.
[23:22] ---
    We won.
[23:24] ---
    Yeah, I lost... This time.
[23:27] ---
    Anyway, you'll keep
    your promise, right?
[23:31] ---
    Promise? What promise?
[23:34] ---
    You said if I had nowhere to go,
    I could come to Sei's house!
[23:38] ---
    Oh, that.
[23:40] ---
    W-Wait!
    You can't make a promise like that!
[23:44] ---
    It's okay, right?
[23:47] ---
    Thank you, Sei.
[23:48] ---
    Getting familiar already?!
[23:50] ---
    Misaki!
[23:52] ---
    Shut up!
[23:54] ---

[00:01] ---
    I never imagined that
    the boys you fought in Tokyo...
[00:04] ---
    ...would defeat Aila Jyrkiäinen
    and advance to the final round.
[00:10] ---
    Did you foresee this?
[00:11] ---
    I'm not that all-knowing.
[00:15] ---
    But working all night reminds me
    of being at the Gunpla Academy.
[00:20] ---
    It was hard as hell.
[00:23] ---
    Even in my dreams,
[00:24] ---
    I still recall the second Meijin's words...
[00:28] ---
    "Gunpla Battle is all about victory."
[00:31] ---
    "Even if the opponent is
    your friend or sibling,"
[00:34] ---
    "you must push them
    out of your way to win."
[00:39] ---
    Thanks to my severe experience
    at the Gunpla Academy,
[00:43] ---
    I succeeded as a builder.
[00:46] ---
    I'm grateful to the second Meijin.
[00:48] ---
    Of course, I'm grateful to him too.
[00:51] ---
    For being a bad example.
[00:54] ---
    A bad example? What do you mean?
[00:56] ---
    Our semifinals opponent is...
[00:59] ---
    ...Sir John Ayers Mackenzie,
    representing the UK.
[01:01] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[01:03] ---
    He's 78 years old,
[01:05] ---
    the oldest contestant
    in the tournament.
[01:08] ---
    And...
[01:09] ---
    a veteran fighter who fought
    deadly battles with the second Meijin.
[01:14] ---
    Commodore Mackenzie!
[01:16] ---
    Oh, Lieutenant Ral.
[01:19] ---
    Long time no see.
[01:20] ---
    Congratulations on
    advancing to the semifinals.
[01:23] ---
    My opponent is the third Meijin.
[01:26] ---
    I must have a fateful
    connection with Meijins.
[01:33] ---
    M-My heart...!
[01:34] ---
    Commodore?! Hang in there!
[01:38] ---
    Commodore!
[01:41] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[01:46] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[01:49] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky
    Mou ichido ano sora e
[01:53] ---
    I built, destroyed, and built again
    Tsukuriagetemo kowashite mata tsukutte
[01:56] ---
    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[01:59] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[02:03] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[02:07] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[02:09] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[02:15] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)
[02:17] ---
    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!
    Me wo samashina tsuyosa wa meikaku
[02:20] ---
    Break through destiny (Fight for yourself!)
    Sadame nante kowase (Fight for yourself!)
[02:22] ---
    Don't look away (Fly again!)
    Me sorasuna (Fly again!)
[02:25] ---
    When you wish to become stronger,
    Tsuyoku naritai to negau koto de
[02:30] ---
    Your wings that once trembled...
    Furueteta hane wa
[02:32] ---
    ...will cut through the darkness
    Yami wo kirisaiteku
[02:36] ---
    I won't be afraid, with you by my side
    Kimi ga iru kara mo kowakunai yo
[02:42] ---
    I grasp your hand in mine
    Sono te nigitte
[02:46] ---
    Because you told me...
    Yowasa datte
[02:47] ---
    ...that my weakness is my strength
    Kimi no tsuyosa to oshiete kureta kara
[02:53] ---
    I was able to stand up again
    Boku wa mata tachiagareta
[02:57] ---
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete
[03:04] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete

    Koko kara mou ichido ano sora e
[03:12] ---
    Sei. Reiji.
[03:14] ---
    We brought you lunch
    that we made together.
[03:17] ---
    I thought you'd be fed up with
    the meals in the players' village.
[03:21] ---
    Th-Thanks.
[03:24] ---
    What's wrong?
[03:25] ---
    U-Um...
[03:27] ---
    Wow!!
[03:29] ---
    Is that a "Japanese bento?!"
[03:34] ---
    I'm starving!
[03:36] ---
    Thank you.
[03:41] ---
    Sh-She has nowhere else to go,
[03:42] ---
    so she suddenly moved in yesterday!
[03:44] ---
    No way!
[03:46] ---
    Yeah, she can't stay here.
[03:48] ---
    After all, you're going out
    with China, right?
[03:53] ---
    I-I didn't mean it that way... We're not...!
[03:57] ---
    The rice balls are yummy!
[03:58] ---
    And she's just eating!
    And she's just eating!
[04:00] ---
    This is all chaos!
[04:04] ---
    Episode 22
    Meijin vs Meijin
[04:09] ---
    Boys and girls in the same room?
[04:11] ---
    I can't allow that!
[04:13] ---
    So until the tournament ends,
[04:17] ---
    Aila will stay at
    the inn where I'm staying.
[04:21] ---
    And after that...
[04:23] ---
    I'll stay at Sei's house.
[04:25] ---
    What? Our house?
[04:27] ---
    Yeah. Reiji said if I had
    nowhere to go, I could stay at Sei's.
[04:32] ---
    Reiji.
[04:33] ---
    Why didn't you ask me first?
[04:36] ---
    Why not, Sei's mom?
[04:39] ---
    I'm sorry. If it's too much trouble...
[04:45] ---
    I'm going to stay with you, then.
[04:47] ---
    Why do you say that?
[04:49] ---
    Take responsibility for your own words!
[04:53] ---
    It's no good.
[04:54] ---
    My home is in Arian.
[04:58] ---
    Arian?
[04:59] ---
    Apparently Arian is the name
    of a country in another world.
[05:03] ---
    Reiji is a prince there, right?
[05:07] ---
    Huh?
[05:08] ---
    Is that true?
[05:10] ---
    Impressed?
[05:15] ---
    Why don't you believe me?!
[05:21] ---
    Why don't you stay at the inn, too?
[05:23] ---
    Are you sure?
[05:25] ---
    The more, the merrier.
[05:30] ---
    Sheesh. Why does
    everyone laugh about it?
[05:33] ---
    So...
[05:34] ---
    What's your real story?
[05:36] ---
    Like I told you.
[05:41] ---
    Nils?
[05:43] ---
    I'm sorry to interrupt you.
[05:45] ---
    What do you want?
[05:47] ---
    I'd like to ask Reiji a favor.
[05:50] ---
    Me?
[05:53] ---
    What is it?
[05:54] ---
    Reiji, during yesterday's battle...
[06:00] ---
    What's that light?!
[06:01] ---
    What caused that phenomenon?
[06:04] ---
    What, that?
[06:06] ---
    This rock glowed.
[06:10] ---
    That's...
[06:12] ---
    Would you please lend me
    that gem for a little while?
[06:18] ---
    No problem.
[06:20] ---
    Thanks, Reiji.
[06:22] ---
    Does that gem...
[06:24] ---
    ...have something to do with the secret of the
    Plavsky particle that you're looking for?
[06:29] ---
    I can't tell until I analyze it,
[06:32] ---
    but I think it's possible.
[06:40] ---
    Grandpa!
[06:42] ---
    Julian?
[06:43] ---
    Lieutenant!
[06:45] ---
    Long time no see.
[06:46] ---
    J-Julian...
[06:49] ---
    Grandpa!
[06:50] ---
    Sorry I'm late.
[06:52] ---
    No, thank you for coming all this way.
[06:55] ---
    Sorry for the trouble.
[06:59] ---
    I'm relieved to see you're okay.
[07:03] ---
    I saw the championship on the news.
[07:06] ---
    You've made it to the semifinals.
[07:08] ---
    This is my first opportunity
    in my 78 years of life.
[07:13] ---
    But my next opponent is the Meijin.
[07:19] ---
    The Meijin?!
[07:20] ---
    Someone was chosen to be
    the third generation?
[07:23] ---
    Yes.
[07:24] ---
    And he's too strong for me...
[07:30] ---
    Grandpa!
[07:31] ---
    J-Julian...
[07:33] ---
    I don't have much time left.
[07:35] ---
    Don't say that.
[07:38] ---
    Please take this.
[07:41] ---
    Fight in my place.
[07:44] ---
    Grandpa, I quit Gunpla Battle.
[07:48] ---
    This is my last wish.
[07:51] ---
    Please.
[07:53] ---
    Julian.
[07:54] ---
    Win victory and honor
    for me and the Mackenzies!
[08:03] ---
    Grandpa?
[08:05] ---
    Grandpa!
[08:07] ---
    Please let him rest.
[08:14] ---
    This is unfair, Grandpa.
[08:17] ---
    If you ask me like that,
    I can't decline your request.
[08:21] ---
    And the battle is tomorrow.
[08:23] ---
    I don't even know
    what Gunpla I'll use...
[08:35] ---
    This Gunpla is...!
[08:40] ---
    Are you sure, Commodore?
[08:43] ---
    You just deceived your grandson.
[08:45] ---
    Whether it's wrong or right,
[08:47] ---
    I'm not good enough
    to defeat the Meijin.
[08:51] ---
    But Julian will...
[08:55] ---
    My grandson will...!
[08:56] ---
    You're persistent, as always.
[08:59] ---
    I just assessed the battlefield.
[09:04] ---
    I-I had no idea...
[09:07] ---
    You have no family,
    nor the means to earn money.
[09:11] ---
    You played Gunpla Battle to survive.
[09:14] ---
    I have a weakness for stories like that!
[09:19] ---
    Aila, you can stay at my house
    until you find someplace to live.
[09:24] ---
    Really?!
[09:25] ---
    Yeah!
[09:27] ---
    Besides, if you come to my house,
[09:29] ---
    you can be with Reiji.
[09:31] ---
    Wh-What?!
[09:35] ---
    What do you mean "what?"
[09:36] ---
    How cute.
[09:42] ---
    Grandpa always intended
    to give me this machine.
[09:48] ---
    But it's been three years.
[09:50] ---
    Can I do it?
[09:52] ---
    Are you looking for an opponent?
[09:55] ---
    Who are you?
[09:56] ---
    I'm Mao Yasaka, best 16
    in the World Tournament.
[10:01] ---
    If you like, shall I be your opponent?
[10:04] ---
    Is that okay?
[10:05] ---
    I haven't battled for a while,
    so I can't wait to fight!
[10:09] ---
    Thanks.
[10:11] ---
    But what's that Gunpla?
[10:14] ---
    The joints are worn out.
[10:16] ---
    I've used it for a long time.
[10:22] ---
    Are you ready?
[10:23] ---
    Yeah, I'm all set.
[10:26] ---
    I need to blow off some steam.
[10:31] ---
    So I'm playing in earnest!
[10:37] ---
    It's no good.
[10:39] ---
    With my limited equipment,
[10:41] ---
    I can't get much data on this gem.
[10:44] ---
    I'll have to ask my professor...
[10:45] ---
    ...to get me some help from
    this country's research institutes.
[10:49] ---
    Battle ended.
[10:53] ---
    A free battle?
[10:57] ---
    Th-That's...!
[11:00] ---
    The Gundam X Maoh!
[11:02] ---
    Mao! What happened to you?
[11:05] ---
    T-Too strong...
[11:07] ---
    What?
[11:10] ---
    That Gunpla is a monster.
[11:15] ---
    We got it working for now, but...
[11:17] ---
    ...it's only 80 percent complete.
[11:20] ---
    This will do.
[11:22] ---
    With this machine's potential,
    I could manage as it is.
[11:25] ---
    Chief Allan.
[11:26] ---
    Your opponent in the semifinals
    has changed their fighter.
[11:30] ---
    What?
[11:32] ---
    What's his name?
[11:33] ---
    His registry name is Julian Mackenzie.
[11:37] ---
    Julian?!
[11:38] ---
    Julian Mackenzie?!
[11:41] ---
    Kawaguchi...!
[11:42] ---
    Allan, in tomorrow's semifinals,
[11:47] ---
    we might lose.
[11:54] ---
    It's a mess.
[11:55] ---
    I can't believe any fighter
    could hurt Mao's Gunpla so much.
[12:00] ---
    Who the heck did it?
[12:02] ---
    Someone called Julian.
[12:05] ---
    He told me he's fighting
    in the semifinals tomorrow.
[12:08] ---
    In the semifinals?
[12:10] ---
    Which means that person
    must be Yuuki's opponent.
[12:16] ---
    Julian Mackenzie.
[12:19] ---
    He was the head student of the first class...
[12:22] ---
    ...at the Gunpla Academy, an elite
    training institution for Gunpla builders.
[12:25] ---
    Even people with world-level ability
    had trouble getting in.
[12:30] ---
    With his genius building skills,
[12:32] ---
    he was the closest to being the next Meijin.
[12:36] ---
    Yeah.
[12:37] ---
    I also thought he was worthy
    of being the third Meijin.
[12:42] ---
    But he suddenly quit the Academy,
[12:46] ---
    and disappeared from
    the Gunpla Battle scene.
[12:49] ---
    Three years later,
    the genius has returned.
[12:54] ---
    Kawaguchi, how many times
    did you fight him at the Academy?
[12:58] ---
    Seven times.
[13:00] ---
    The results?
[13:03] ---
    Zero wins, seven losses.
[13:06] ---
    Total defeat.
[13:09] ---
    Is it true, Lieutenant?!
[13:11] ---
    Yeah.
[13:12] ---
    The third Meijin Kawaguchi is...
[13:15] ---
    ...Tatsuya Yuuki.
[13:16] ---
    He's that youngster you
    looked after at the Gunpla Academy.
[13:21] ---
    No way...
[13:23] ---
    He loved Gunpla so much.
[13:26] ---
    Now he's inherited the Meijin name
    and the fiendish pursuit of victory?
[13:31] ---
    Why?
[13:33] ---
    Why, Tatsuya?
[13:38] ---
    Julian!
[13:42] ---
    Why did you quit the Academy?!
[13:45] ---
    I entered this academy
    to enjoy Gunpla.
[13:49] ---
    I couldn't live my life
    like the second Meijin,
[13:53] ---
    trampling friends and
    making enemies in order to win.
[13:59] ---
    You can think that I ran away.
[14:05] ---
    Julian.
[14:07] ---
    You quit Gunpla
    to protect your affection for it.
[14:11] ---
    But I want to find my own way...
[14:15] ---
    ...to keep my love for Gunpla.
[14:22] ---
    Tatsuya.
[14:24] ---
    Have you been captured
    by the second Meijin's ideology?
[14:29] ---
    Wallowing in carnage,
    seeking only victory...
[14:36] ---
    We now begin match two
    of the semifinals.
[14:41] ---
    He's the one Mao told us about.
[14:43] ---
    Yeah.
[14:44] ---
    Mr. Julian Mackenzie.
[14:47] ---
    Tatsuya.
[14:51] ---
    Julian.
[14:54] ---
    I made a promise to Grandpa.
[14:56] ---
    Suddenly, you've become
    my greatest obstacle.
[14:58] ---
    But more than that,
[14:59] ---
    I want to know why
    you became the third Meijin.
[15:03] ---
    I'll overcome you!
[15:05] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[15:14] ---
    Field 2, Desert.
[15:21] ---
    Yuuki brought a new Gunpla!
[15:25] ---
    It's a remodeled Gundam Exia.
[15:28] ---
    A third-generation mobile suit developed by
    the private armed organization, Celestial Being.
[15:33] ---
    Battle start.
[15:37] ---
    Meijin Kawaguchi,
    Amazing Exia, here I come!
[15:46] ---
    That's Julian's own machine,
    the Gundam F91 Imagine!
[16:13] ---
    They're not moving.
[16:14] ---
    No, they are.
[16:16] ---
    What?
[16:17] ---
    They've traded blows
    in their minds countless times.
[16:21] ---
    It's so intense I'm getting
    goose bumps all over.
[16:28] ---
    The Exia is on the move!
[16:30] ---
    Julian Mackenzie's F91 Imagine
    is supposedly invincible.
[16:39] ---
    But it's still an old Gunpla
    made three years ago!
[16:50] ---
    Darn!
[16:55] ---
    One machine turned into three?!
[16:57] ---
    They're just afterimages with mass.
[17:02] ---
    When the F91 moves at high speed,
[17:04] ---
    the Gunpla's paint peels off
    and creates afterimages.
[17:08] ---
    That's why it seemed to split.
[17:10] ---
    I saw this a long time ago.
[17:13] ---
    This is why Julian was called
    worthy of being the next Meijin.
[17:16] ---
    It's the "Back Jet Stream!"
[17:23] ---
    You've improved, Tatsuya!
[17:29] ---
    And you haven't lost your edge!
[17:42] ---
    Tatsuya!
[17:44] ---
    Why did you take on the name?
[17:46] ---
    Have you yielded to
    the second Meijin's ideology?!
[17:48] ---
    I'd never do it for such a reason!
[17:55] ---
    If you have another one,
    then show me.
[17:58] ---
    Your belief!
[18:00] ---
    Your determination!
[18:02] ---
    He's coming!
[18:03] ---
    Allan, I'm resigning as Meijin for now.
[18:06] ---
    What?!
[18:07] ---
    I'll overcome him as Tatsuya Yuuki!
[18:11] ---
    By doing so, I'll become
    the Meijin I'm aiming for!
[18:26] ---
    Gotcha!
[18:29] ---
    Darn!
[18:37] ---
    Back Jet Stream!
[18:40] ---
    Turn bright red, Exia!
[18:44] ---
    Trans-Am!
[19:42] ---
    Tatsuya!
[19:49] ---
    Darn!
[19:52] ---
    This is my...
[19:55] ---
    ...determination!
[20:03] ---
    He met all my attacks.
[20:07] ---
    This isn't the fighting style
    of the second Meijin.
[20:12] ---
    Tatsuya.
[20:13] ---
    You dared to become a Meijin, in order to
    transform Gunpla into what it should be?
[20:20] ---
    That's your determination?
[20:27] ---
    Battle ended.
[20:31] ---
    It was a splendid battle.
[20:33] ---
    Wow!
[20:35] ---
    Reiji is going to fight
    someone that strong?
[20:38] ---
    It's so exciting, Sei.
[20:40] ---
    That guy's our opponent
    in the final round!
[20:44] ---
    That was pretty reckless.
    The Trans-Am hadn't been adjusted yet.
[20:48] ---
    It was the only way to win.
[20:54] ---
    I'm completely defeated, Tatsuya.
[20:56] ---
    No,
[20:58] ---
    Meijin Kawaguchi the Third.
[21:02] ---
    Without these sunglasses,
[21:04] ---
    I'd have been shot down.
[21:06] ---
    You should thank the Meijin's costume.
[21:09] ---
    Julian, won't you come back to Gunpla?
[21:14] ---
    It was going to be a one-time thing,
    but that seems unlikely.
[21:18] ---
    I can't stay away
    from something this fun.
[21:23] ---
    Meijin, let's battle again someday.
[21:28] ---
    Of course.
[21:34] ---
    Julian will play Gunpla again...
[21:38] ---
    I should thank the third Meijin for that.
[21:42] ---
    Hey, Sei, what's Trans-Am?
[21:45] ---
    It's a system that temporarily
    triples your particle emission.
[21:49] ---
    But once it's used up,
    the machine's performance plummets.
[21:53] ---
    Sure sounds like a last resort.
[21:56] ---
    We'll counter it with the RG system!
[21:58] ---
    And then we'll win!
[22:01] ---
    We're gonna win the World Tournament!
    We're gonna win the World Tournament!
[22:19] ---
    I was nibbling potato chips and it hit me
    Poteto chippusu tabetetara futo omotta
[22:22] ---
    (Hold dear my days)
[22:25] ---
    How many years have I been eating the same thing?
    Nanjuunen onaji mon tabetsuzuketeirun darou
[22:29] ---
    (Fight your fears)
[22:31] ---
    People tell me I need to act my age
    Mou otona nandakara tte iu kedo
[22:34] ---
    (I go my way)
[22:37] ---
    But it's not like I can turn against something I love
    Suki na mono wo kirai ni nareru wake nado nainda
[22:41] ---
    (Normal life)
[22:42] ---
    I put all my energy into childish things
    Taai nai koto mo zenryoku toukyuu
[22:47] ---
    Doesn't matter if you're young or old,
    Muchuu ni nareru kodomo mo
[22:51] ---
    you can lose yourself in something
    Otona mo kankei nai
[22:54] ---
    Let's keep on walking at the same rhythm
    Kawaranai rizumu de arukitsuzukete yukou
[23:00] ---
    True, our stride is a little longer now
    Maa hohaba wa sukoshi dake ookiku natta keredo
[23:06] ---
    The sunset from back then colors our skies today
    Ano hi no yuuhi wa kyou mo sora wo someyuku
[23:12] ---
    I want to be a fool tomorrow,
    Nee ashita mo gojuunengo mo
[23:15] ---
    and even 50 years from now
    Baka yattetainda
[23:18] ---
    The short-pants spirit goes on
    Tsuzuite yuku hanpan supirit
[23:21] ---
    Let's whistle a tune and head home
    Kuchibue fuite kaerou
[23:26] ---
    The never-ending short-pants spirit
    Never-ending hanpan supirit
[23:29] ---
    Our childhood will go on forever
    Owaranai childhood
[23:43] ---
    My deduction was right after all.
[23:46] ---
    The gem that Reiji wears
    is a Plavsky particle crystal!
[23:54] ---

[00:09] ---
    It's been a long time.
[00:11] ---
    I, Tatsuya Yuuki, am now the third
    inheritor of the Meijin Kawaguchi name.
[00:20] ---
    I have to tell you clearly that,
[00:23] ---
    I won't continue your philosophy
    of building Gunpla only for victory.
[00:30] ---
    I'll spread its fun and enjoyment,
    like the first Meijin Kawaguchi.
[00:46] ---
    Yes. Like the man who taught me
    the wonders of Gunpla!
[00:55] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[01:00] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[01:03] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky
    Mou ichido ano sora e
[01:07] ---
    I built, destroyed, and built again
    Tsukuriagetemo kowashite mata tsukutte
[01:10] ---
    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[01:13] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[01:17] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[01:21] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[01:23] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[01:29] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)
[01:31] ---
    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!
    Me wo samashina tsuyosa wa meikaku
[01:34] ---
    Break through destiny (Fight for yourself!)
    Sadame nante kowase (Fight for yourself!)
[01:37] ---
    Don't look away (Fly again!)
    Me sorasuna (Fly again!)
[01:39] ---
    When you wish to become stronger,
    Tsuyoku naritai to negau koto de
[01:44] ---
    Your wings that once trembled...
    Furueteta hane wa
[01:46] ---
    ...will cut through the darkness
    Yami wo kirisaiteku
[01:50] ---
    I won't be afraid, with you by my side
    Kimi ga iru kara mo kowakunai yo
[01:57] ---
    I grasp your hand in mine
    Sono te nigitte
[02:00] ---
    Because you told me...
    Yowasa datte
[02:01] ---
    ...that my weakness is my strength
    Kimi no tsuyosa to oshiete kureta kara
[02:07] ---
    I was able to stand up again
    Boku wa mata tachiagareta
[02:11] ---
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete

    Koko kara mou ichido ano sora e
[02:25] ---
    Hello, everyone!
[02:28] ---
    I'm the image character of the Gunpla
    Battle Championship World Tournament.
[02:31] ---
    It's me, Kirara!
[02:33] ---
    Kiraran.
[02:35] ---
    The final round will
    take place in one week.
[02:37] ---
    So now, on the eve of the final battle,
[02:40] ---
    a huge festival is being held
    at the arena in Shizuoka.
[02:43] ---
    People have gathered from
    all over the world to enjoy it!
[02:49] ---
    And take a look!
[02:52] ---
    Look at its size!
[02:53] ---
    It's a life-sized Gundam statue!
[02:56] ---
    It was relocated from Odaiba
    just for this festival!
[03:02] ---
    Plus!
[03:04] ---
    A life-size Zaku statue is being
    shown for the first time!
[03:10] ---
    It's the 06S commander type,
[03:12] ---
    as used by Mr. Char Aznable,
    the famous "Red Comet!"
[03:17] ---
    They'll both be be lit up at night.
[03:19] ---
    It'll be a brilliant and beautiful scene!
[03:23] ---
    This is a Gunpla-building classroom.
[03:27] ---
    You can build Gunpla that you've just bought,
[03:30] ---
    and then battle with it at
    the Free Battle corner next door.
[03:35] ---
    You can even play against fighters who
    participated in the World Tournament!
[03:48] ---
    Darn!
[03:50] ---
    At a special stage in the arena,
[03:53] ---
    various talk shows and live events
    will be held every day.
[03:57] ---
    I'll also be holding my own mini-concert,
[04:00] ---
    so please come and see me!
[04:03] ---
    Kiraran.
[04:06] ---
    Rin?!
[04:07] ---
    I see!
[04:08] ---
    She closed our store and
    went to cheer for Sei.
[04:11] ---
    Rats!
[04:12] ---
    Why didn't I realize that?!
[04:16] ---
    Because you're a spoiled kid.
[04:17] ---
    Shut up!
[04:19] ---
    I'm coming soon, so wait for me!
[04:21] ---
    Rin!
[04:25] ---
    Episode 23
    Gunpla Eve
[04:36] ---
    Nooo!
[04:39] ---
    What happened to him?
[04:41] ---
    My, there are so many people.
[04:44] ---
    Everyone here is looking forward
    to seeing Reiji's final battle.
[04:50] ---
    It reminds me of the one
    my darling participated in.
[04:53] ---
    The reason Iori is so into Gunpla...
[04:56] ---
    ...is because he watched
    his father doing this.
[04:59] ---
    That's right!
[05:01] ---
    Shizuoka
[05:02] ---
    Shizuoka
[05:02] ---
    My darling was so cool.
[05:03] ---
    My darling was so cool.
[05:05] ---
    Hey! Hey!
[05:08] ---
    Hey, China.
[05:09] ---
    I want to build my own Gunpla.
[05:13] ---
    Will you help me?
[05:14] ---
    Sure, of course!
[05:16] ---
    Thanks!
[05:17] ---
    Let's go!
[05:23] ---
    It's a big success, Chairman.
[05:26] ---
    Tournament attendance
    and merchandise sales...
[05:29] ---
    ...are both up 140 percent from last year.
[05:33] ---
    You've created such a great
    Gunpla boom all on your own.
[05:36] ---
    You're amazing, Chairman Mashita.
[05:40] ---
    Big deal.
[05:42] ---
    It's a piece of cake for me to
    make a success out of an event like—
[05:47] ---
    Wait a minute!
[05:49] ---
    That's not the point!
[05:51] ---
    That boy is one of the finalists!
[05:55] ---
    And he even made Arista glow.
[05:59] ---
    If he wins, it'll be a real problem!
[06:01] ---
    I'll have to use him in commercials
    and see him over and over again.
[06:06] ---
    I don't want that!
[06:08] ---
    I want him to go away!
[06:10] ---
    Don't worry, Chairman.
[06:12] ---
    You keep saying that.
[06:14] ---
    But you never do anything!
[06:18] ---
    Miss Baker?
[06:20] ---
    You can relax this time.
[06:22] ---
    Their opponent in the final round
    is Meijin Kawaguchi.
[06:25] ---
    There's no doubt they'll lose.
[06:28] ---
    But just to make sure,
[06:30] ---
    I've asked for someone's help.
[06:33] ---
    Who? Who?
[06:36] ---
    Come in.
[06:40] ---
    Nice to meet you, Mr. Mashita.
[06:43] ---
    I'm Nine Barthes of the Flana Institute.
[06:50] ---
    Hey, Sei.
[06:51] ---
    Is it okay not to tune up
    the Star Build Strike?
[06:54] ---
    There's one week until the final round.
[06:57] ---
    I have to rest sometime.
[06:59] ---
    By the way, this is lavish!
[07:01] ---
    The contestants can eat
    any food here for free.
[07:05] ---
    But you're eating too much, Reiji.
[07:08] ---
    There's no "too much"
    at a time like this!
[07:12] ---
    Want some, Mao?
[07:13] ---
    I'll pass, thanks.
[07:15] ---
    Mao, cheer up.
[07:18] ---
    But...
[07:20] ---
    Misaki's gone...
[07:22] ---
    ...and the Gundam X Maoh is ruined.
[07:26] ---
    I...
[07:28] ---
    ...I've lost everything now.
[07:31] ---
    You fool!
[07:33] ---
    M-Master?!
[07:35] ---
    Mao, what's up with you?!
[07:37] ---
    You're captured by negative thoughts!
[07:40] ---
    Build and fight with an unclouded heart.
[07:42] ---
    Did you already forget the innermost
    mystery of Gunpla Shingyo?!
[07:47] ---
    Come with me!
[07:48] ---
    I'll whip your rotten mind into shape!
[07:51] ---
    P-Please forgive me, Master!
[07:54] ---
    Master!
[07:58] ---
    Now the battle is raging on!
[08:04] ---
    I'll win this battle,
[08:06] ---
    and I'll claim the prize!
[08:08] ---
    I can't allow that.
[08:11] ---
    The prize is a year's supply of Gunpla.
[08:14] ---
    It'll go to me and my machine...
[08:16] ---
    Flash!
[08:17] ---
    The Gyan Vulcan!
[08:22] ---
    Is that all you've got?
[08:24] ---
    You won't defeat the Turn X,
    big brother of all Gunpla!
[08:32] ---
    This is the Moonlight Butterfly!
[08:38] ---
    I won't let you!
[08:40] ---
    You will, you will! Oh, you will!
[08:52] ---
    Battle ended.
[08:54] ---
    Darn you!
[08:57] ---
    This is the power of the
    ultimate Gyan I've created!
[09:03] ---
    Oh, those guys.
[09:05] ---
    Hey!
[09:06] ---
    Iori, good luck with the final round!
[09:09] ---
    Thank you, Gonda.
[09:11] ---
    Sei, don't misunderstand me.
[09:15] ---
    I didn't come here to cheer for you.
[09:18] ---
    I came to observe my opponents
    in next year's championship.
[09:22] ---
    Sazaki... Next year, you said?
[09:26] ---
    You're a pretty patient guy.
[09:27] ---
    Oh, my! A new challenger has appeared!
[09:35] ---
    That Gunpla is...!
[09:37] ---
    The Fenice...?
[09:38] ---
    No, it's...!
[09:41] ---
    You haven't see me for a few days,
[09:44] ---
    because I've been upgrading my partner.
[09:47] ---
    And now, the prize will
    go to the Italian Dandy...
[09:53] ---
    ...and his Gundam Fenice Rinascita!
[09:59] ---
    N-Nobody told me about this!
[10:01] ---
    How can my opponent be one of the
    best eight in the World Tournament?!
[10:18] ---
    Battle ended.
[10:20] ---
    Gyan Vulcaaan!
[10:25] ---
    Evvai!
[10:27] ---
    He's like a little boy.
[10:29] ---
    This is bullying.
[10:30] ---
    Iori.
[10:33] ---
    Class Rep!
[10:37] ---
    Are you building a new Gunpla?
[10:40] ---
    Not mine, but Miss Aila's.
[10:42] ---
    Huh?
[10:46] ---
    Like it says in the instructions,
[10:48] ---
    put in the polycaps first
    and then fit the parts together.
[10:52] ---
    Like this?
[10:53] ---
    Good. You're talented.
[10:56] ---
    Yuuki...?
[11:05] ---
    As I thought.
[11:07] ---
    More people have come
    to the festival than expected,
[11:09] ---
    so there won't be
    enough particle tanks.
[11:14] ---
    Bingo.
[11:15] ---
    What's up?
    Are you playing detective?
[11:18] ---
    C-Caroline?! Why are you here?
[11:20] ---
    Why? I'm your fiancée.
[11:24] ---
    Our relationship has gone forward...!
[11:31] ---
    Oh, no!
[11:32] ---
    Don't worry.
[11:34] ---
    I'll have my butler chase it.
[11:37] ---
    That truck is headed for...
[11:40] ---
    ...the Plavsky particle production plant.
[11:43] ---
    That's where the secret of
    the particle's creation lies!
[12:07] ---
    What, no more challengers?
[12:12] ---
    It's a Gerbera Tetra.
[12:14] ---
    It's still pretty rough,
    but it's built with time and care.
[12:17] ---
    Thanks, Mr. Fellini.
[12:20] ---
    K-Kirara?!
[12:21] ---
    I built this Gunpla myself.
[12:25] ---
    So don't be too hard on me.
[12:29] ---
    R-Right...
[12:32] ---
    Oh, don't.
[12:34] ---
    Kirara...
[12:37] ---
    But... this isn't bad.
[12:54] ---
    Yay!
[13:06] ---
    What a wonderful scene.
[13:09] ---
    Everyone here enjoys Gunpla so much.
[13:13] ---
    You're not the Meijin today?
[13:17] ---
    That outfit makes my shoulders stiff.
[13:20] ---
    Then you should quit.
[13:22] ---
    You're right.
[13:24] ---
    Yuuki.
[13:27] ---
    You bowed out of
    the regional qualifiers...
[13:30] ---
    ...because you became the third
    Meijin Kawaguchi, right?
[13:34] ---
    That's right.
[13:35] ---
    I'm really sorry about that.
[13:40] ---
    Let me apologize.
[13:42] ---
    I'm sorry.
[13:43] ---
    Don't worry.
[13:45] ---
    Now we can face you on the best stage ever,
[13:48] ---
    the final round of the World Tournament.
[13:50] ---
    He's right.
[13:52] ---
    We couldn't hope for anything more.
[13:56] ---
    You two are glowing.
[14:00] ---
    Iori, do you remember?
[14:03] ---
    The reason I cared about you...
[14:06] ---
    I said I'd tell you why
    if you defeated me.
[14:09] ---
    Yes.
[14:11] ---
    You see, the one who taught me
    the joys of Gunpla was...
[14:16] ---
    ...your father, Mr. Takeshi Iori.
[14:20] ---
    My dad?
[14:23] ---
    Back then, I was set to
    inherit my stepfather's company.
[14:26] ---
    I was studying abroad to learn
    how to be a good leader.
[14:31] ---
    In those days, I just followed
    the path that was laid out for me.
[14:35] ---
    Honestly, I was growing resentful.
[14:39] ---
    That was when I met him.
[14:44] ---
    Mr. Takeshi told me that...
[14:48] ---
    ...Gunpla is freedom.
[14:51] ---
    You can build it as you like.
[14:52] ---
    You can fight with it as you like.
[14:55] ---
    Just build Gunpla as you think best,
[14:59] ---
    and enjoy the battles
    to your heart's content.
[15:08] ---
    Gunpla gave me freedom and pleasure.
[15:14] ---
    That's why I became a Meijin.
[15:16] ---
    I wanted to help more people
    share that pleasure.
[15:22] ---
    Just like your father.
[15:28] ---
    Iori. Reiji.
[15:31] ---
    Let's fight a great battle
    in the final round next week,
[15:35] ---
    so that people all over the world
    can feel the joys of Gunpla.
[15:41] ---
    Yes!
[15:42] ---
    You got it!
[15:43] ---
    Thank you for listening to me.
[15:46] ---
    Now, I can fight with all my heart.
[15:49] ---
    See you in one week.
[15:51] ---
    Even so, we're gonna win.
[15:53] ---
    I don't intend to lose, either.
[16:05] ---
    Let's do this, Sei.
[16:07] ---
    Yeah.
[16:08] ---
    We'll hit him with everything we've got!
[16:12] ---
    I can hardly wait!
[16:14] ---
    Sei, let's battle!
[16:18] ---
    W-Wow!
[16:20] ---
    Iori and Reiji, two of the finalists
    in the World Tournament,
[16:25] ---
    have suddenly decided to
    fight each other unofficially!
[16:29] ---
    This is truly a special match!
[16:32] ---
    Please set your GP Base.
[16:39] ---
    Field 1, Space.
[16:52] ---
    Battle start.
[16:56] ---
    Sei Iori.
[16:57] ---
    Reiji.
[16:59] ---
    Build Gundam Mk-II!
[17:01] ---
    Beginning Gundam!
[17:03] ---
    Here I go!
[17:05] ---
    Let's go!
[17:17] ---
    He dodged that attack!
[17:18] ---
    Sei's gotten better.
[17:21] ---
    Of course.
[17:22] ---
    Mr. Sei's been through the
    battlefield of the World Tournament.
[17:27] ---
    Not bad, Sei!
[17:29] ---
    Then...!
[17:31] ---
    How's this?!
[17:37] ---
    What?!
[17:45] ---
    Good! Good!
[17:47] ---
    Well, duh!
[17:48] ---
    My Mk-II is superior
    in terms of Gunpla quality!
[17:53] ---
    Then we're evenly matched!
[17:59] ---
    Iori and Reiji are having fun.
[18:01] ---
    I should hurry up and
    complete my own Gunpla!
[18:05] ---
    Yeah.
[18:09] ---
    You're good, Reiji.
[18:11] ---
    But...!
[18:21] ---
    I can't quit!
[18:23] ---
    Yeah, me neither.
[18:26] ---
    I can't quit Gunpla Battle!
[18:39] ---
    Gunpla Building Class
[20:30] ---
    We investigated the factory
    where the truck stopped,
[20:34] ---
    and ended up discovering
    this underground passage...
[20:47] ---
    We've walked pretty far.
[20:50] ---
    Where are we now?
[20:52] ---
    This point is...
[20:54] ---
    Huh?
[20:55] ---
    Right under the
    World Tournament arena?!
[20:59] ---
    Nils, look.
[21:16] ---
    Th-This is...!
[21:19] ---
    Wh-What is this?
[21:24] ---
    It's a Plavsky particle crystal.
[21:26] ---
    But it's huge.
[21:30] ---
    What?!
[21:31] ---
    You're an Early Genius, alright.
[21:34] ---
    I never thought you'd find this place.
[21:38] ---
    But now that you've seen it,
[21:41] ---
    I can't just let you walk away.
[21:43] ---
    Y-You're...
[21:47] ---
    Prepare yourselves.
[22:05] ---
    I was nibbling potato chips and it hit me
    Poteto chippusu tabetetara futo omotta
[22:08] ---
    (Hold dear my days)
[22:11] ---
    How many years have I been eating the same thing?
    Nanjuunen onaji mon tabetsuzuketeirun darou
[22:15] ---
    (Fight your fears)
[22:17] ---
    People tell me I need to act my age
    Mou otona nandakara tte iu kedo
[22:20] ---
    (I go my way)
[22:23] ---
    But it's not like I can turn against something I love
    Suki na mono wo kirai ni nareru wake nado nainda
[22:27] ---
    (Normal life)
[22:29] ---
    I put all my energy into childish things
    Taai nai koto mo zenryoku toukyuu
[22:33] ---
    Doesn't matter if you're young or old,
    Muchuu ni nareru kodomo mo
[22:37] ---
    you can lose yourself in something
    Otona mo kankei nai
[22:40] ---
    Let's keep on walking at the same rhythm
    Kawaranai rizumu de arukitsuzukete yukou
[22:46] ---
    True, our stride is a little longer now
    Maa hohaba wa sukoshi dake ookiku natta keredo
[22:52] ---
    The sunset from back then colors our skies today
    Ano hi no yuuhi wa kyou mo sora wo someyuku
[22:58] ---
    I want to be a fool tomorrow,
    Nee ashita mo gojuunengo mo
[23:02] ---
    and even 50 years from now
    Baka yattetainda
[23:05] ---
    The short-pants spirit goes on
    Tsuzuite yuku hanpan supirit
[23:07] ---
    Let's whistle a tune and head home
    Kuchibue fuite kaerou
[23:12] ---
    The never-ending short-pants spirit
    Never-ending hanpan supirit
[23:15] ---
    Our childhood will go on forever
    Owaranai childhood
[23:29] ---
    We now begin the final round of...
[23:33] ---
    ...the Gunpla Battle Championship
    World Tournament.
[23:41] ---
    Let's start.
[23:49] ---
    It's time for Gunpla Battle.

[00:01] ---
    It's finally completed.
[00:03] ---
    Yeah.
[00:04] ---
    Equipped with a Trans-Am booster,
[00:06] ---
    it's the true form of the Amazing Exia.
[00:11] ---
    Allan.
[00:12] ---
    I swear by this Gunpla,
[00:15] ---
    tomorrow's final battle will thrill
    Gunpla fans around the world.
[00:21] ---
    Yes.
[00:24] ---
    That's not good enough!
[00:27] ---
    Ch-Chairman Mashita.
[00:29] ---
    Meijin, I want you to win.
[00:34] ---
    Otherwise, it wasn't worth
    making a works team for you.
[00:38] ---
    Of course, I'll try to win.
[00:41] ---
    But, more than that,
[00:43] ---
    I want to show the world
    what a true Meijin—
[00:45] ---
    Forget such childish thoughts!
[00:48] ---
    Just win.
[00:50] ---
    If you win, you'll get
    honor, glory and praise.
[00:54] ---
    You can have everything!
[00:57] ---
    But you must hit your opponent's
    weak points, ignore his pleas,
[01:02] ---
    and smash him until he stops moving.
[01:06] ---
    Yes, just like the second Meijin.
[01:10] ---
    N-No...
[01:12] ---
    Did you push your philosophy
    on him and make him a demon...?
[01:18] ---
    Is that bad?
[01:20] ---
    I reject your philosophy!
[01:22] ---
    Alright. Then I have no choice.
[01:28] ---
    Wh-What?!
[01:30] ---
    Allan!
[01:31] ---
    Meijin.
[01:33] ---
    I brought you a special present.
[01:38] ---
    Sorry, but this is business.
[01:42] ---
    That mask...
[01:44] ---
    It's an improved Embody.
[01:46] ---
    When you put on this,
    you'll be reborn...
[01:51] ---
    ...as a demon that pursues
    nothing other than victory.
[02:00] ---
    I covered up my weakness by acting tough
    Tsuyogari no uragawa ni yowasa wo kakushiteta
[02:05] ---
    But I won't run away anymore
    Nigenai yo korekara wa
[02:08] ---
    Let's fly once again into the sky
    Mou ichido ano sora e
[02:12] ---
    I built, destroyed, and built again
    Tsukuriagetemo kowashite mata tsukutte
[02:15] ---
    Hundreds of times (Again and again!)
    Nanbyakukai mo (Again and again!)
[02:18] ---
    But I knew what it felt like to lose
    Demo makeru itami ni naresugiteta
[02:22] ---
    I wanted to be recognized, spinning my wheels
    Mitomeraretakute karamawatte
[02:26] ---
    Even if I was just acting tough
    Tsuyogari miseta tokoro de
[02:28] ---
    But that just made me feel empty, you know?
    Sore ja jibun ga munashikunaru dake ja nai?
[02:34] ---
    Uh, let's go! (It's time to wake up!)
    Uh ikouka (It’s time to wake up!)
[02:36] ---
    Open your eyes, your strength is clear!
    Me wo samashina tsuyosa wa meikaku
[02:39] ---
    Break through destiny (Fight for yourself!)
    Sadame nante kowase (Fight for yourself!)
[02:41] ---
    Don't look away (Fly again!)
    Me sorasuna (Fly again!)
[02:44] ---
    When you wish to become stronger,
    Tsuyoku naritai to negau koto de
[02:49] ---
    Your wings that once trembled...
    Furueteta hane wa
[02:51] ---
    ...will cut through the darkness
    Yami wo kirisaiteku
[02:55] ---
    I won't be afraid, with you by my side
    Kimi ga iru kara mo kowakunai yo
[03:02] ---
    I grasp your hand in mine
    Sono te nigitte
[03:05] ---
    Because you told me...
    Yowasa datte
[03:06] ---
    ...that my weakness is my strength
    Kimi no tsuyosa to oshiete kureta kara
[03:12] ---
    I was able to stand up again
    Boku wa mata tachiagareta
[03:16] ---
    For you, I'll overcome all pain
    Kimi no tame nara donna itami mo koete
[03:23] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
    For you, I'll overcome all pain

    Dark Matter
[03:39] ---
    We now begin the final round of...
[03:42] ---
    ...the Gunpla Battle Championship
    World Tournament.
[03:57] ---
    Hey, what's with the new look?
[04:00] ---
    Are you trying to show off
    because it's the final round?
[04:10] ---
    What's this pressure
    coming from the Meijin?
[04:14] ---
    Ramba, do you recognize
    this hostile will?
[04:18] ---
    It reminds me of the second.
[04:20] ---
    It's the same as the second Meijin's.
[04:24] ---
    President Yuuki...
[04:26] ---
    He has a strange aura about him.
[04:30] ---
    I don't know what's up with him,
[04:32] ---
    but we'll find out when we fight.
[04:35] ---
    Yeah.
[04:37] ---
    Let's give it our all
    and make this a great battle!
[04:41] ---
    Yeah, man!
[04:43] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[04:49] ---
    Field 1, Space.
[04:53] ---
    Sei Iori.
[04:54] ---
    Reiji.
[04:55] ---
    Star Build Strike.
[04:56] ---
    Let's go!
[05:00] ---
    What?!
[05:05] ---
    Right out of the gate...!
[05:13] ---
    Reiji, the Absorb Shield!
[05:15] ---
    Yeah!
[05:24] ---
    It's ready!
[05:25] ---
    Okay!
[05:37] ---
    Discharge! Maximum output!
[05:39] ---
    Take this!
[05:56] ---
    What's that?!
[05:57] ---
    That's Mr. Nils's technique!
[06:17] ---
    The main camera...!
[06:27] ---
    Darn!
[06:35] ---
    Reiji!
[06:36] ---
    Iori!
    Reiji!
[06:37] ---
    Sei.
[06:38] ---
    That relentless fighting style.
[06:41] ---
    Just like the second Meijin.
[06:43] ---
    But why is Yuuki fighting like that?
[06:51] ---
    Stop the match!
[06:52] ---
    This isn't the battle he wanted!
[06:55] ---
    But Chairman Mashita wants it.
[07:00] ---
    Wh-What?!
[07:02] ---
    What's going on?!
[07:04] ---
    The Plavsky particle crystal...
[07:06] ---
    Is it resonating with something?
[07:23] ---
    Good! Defeat them!
[07:25] ---
    Defeat them!
[07:29] ---
    An effect that can interfere
    with human consciousness, eh?
[07:33] ---
    I thought Arista could only
    be used to move Gunpla.
[07:39] ---
    I had no idea we could use it
    like this, Miss Baker!
[07:42] ---
    It's thanks to PPSE's science team.
[07:46] ---
    Your wishes, your drive for victory...
[07:50] ---
    They're being amplified by
    the huge underground Arista.
[07:53] ---
    It's controlling the
    Meijin's consciousness...
[07:57] ---
    ...via the Flana Institute's improved Embody.
[08:00] ---
    Chairman, with this power,
    you could have any—
[08:04] ---
    No,
[08:05] ---
    you could have the entire world!
[08:08] ---
    Eh, I'm not interested in that.
[08:11] ---
    It would be a lot of work.
[08:13] ---
    I just want to be rich,
[08:15] ---
    and spend the rest of my life at ease.
[08:19] ---
    I-I'm sorry.
[08:22] ---
    In Arian I was a petty thief.
[08:25] ---
    When I snuck into the
    treasure room of the palace,
[08:28] ---
    the Arista reacted and I was
    thrown into this world.
[08:36] ---
    I'd completely lost my bearings.
[08:38] ---
    But then I met Miss Baker,
[08:40] ---
    and we came up with the business
    of using Arista for Gunpla Battle.
[08:44] ---
    And so I succeeded in this world.
[08:49] ---
    I can't give up this position now.
[08:51] ---
    If I return to Arian,
    I'll be arrested as a criminal.
[08:56] ---
    So Prince Reiji must never
    learn my true identity!
[09:01] ---
    Win, third Meijin Kawaguchi!
[09:05] ---
    Win, and get rid of that boy!
[09:08] ---
    For the sake of my peaceful life!
[09:13] ---
    He's only aiming for the joints?!
[09:14] ---
    He's strong, but petty!
[09:17] ---
    Field change.
[09:18] ---
    What?
    What?
[09:22] ---
    The field changed!
[09:23] ---
    Why?!
[09:31] ---
    What?
[09:33] ---
    What's going on!
[09:35] ---
    The Exia is coming!
[09:42] ---
    Darn you!
[09:54] ---
    This sword...!
[10:09] ---
    How dare you!
[10:24] ---
    The Star Build Strike...!
[10:30] ---
    Iori's Gunpla is...
[10:34] ---
    I-Is this the end?
[10:41] ---
    No way...
[10:48] ---
    That's good, Meijin.
[10:54] ---
    Destroy...
[10:57] ---
    I will... destroy.
[11:05] ---
    Move! Move!
[11:07] ---
    Just move!!
[11:10] ---
    We'll fight!
[11:11] ---
    Please move!
[11:14] ---
    Star Build Strike!
[11:16] ---
    This battle isn't over yet!
[11:19] ---
    Not yet!
[11:21] ---
    That's right, Prince.
[11:25] ---
    You've caused me so much grief!
[11:29] ---
    I...
[11:32] ---
    I'm furious!
[11:37] ---
    No...
[11:38] ---
    Iori.
[11:40] ---
    Sei's Gunpla is...
[11:44] ---
    Where are you going, Takeshi?!
[11:45] ---
    I'll protest to the organizers
    about them changing the field,
[11:49] ---
    as an International
    Gunpla Battle Official Referee.
[11:52] ---
    Stop.
[11:53] ---
    I know you're worried about your son,
    but don't meddle in a battle.
[11:58] ---
    The die has been cast.
[12:02] ---
    Sei...!
[12:06] ---
    Huh? Aren't you fighting back?
[12:09] ---
    It's almost too easy.
[12:11] ---
    Chairman, it's better to
    finish it off immediately...
[12:15] ---
    It's alright.
[12:17] ---
    The Meijin's victory is certain.
[12:20] ---
    After all, my strong will
    controls the Meijin!
[12:24] ---
    What?
[12:26] ---
    Whose voice was that?
[12:29] ---
    The gem that Sei gave me...
[12:32] ---
    Who said, "controls the Meijin?"
[12:38] ---
    Could it be the Embody?!
[12:43] ---
    Yuuki...
[12:45] ---
    Why... Why...?
[12:48] ---
    Iori.
[12:50] ---
    Reiji.
[12:52] ---
    Let's fight a great battle
    in the final round next week,
[12:56] ---
    so that people all over the world
    can feel the joys of Gunpla.
[13:01] ---
    Is... Is this the kind of
    battle you meant, Yuuki?

    What?!
[13:23] ---
    He's being controlled?!
[13:25] ---
    Could it be that mask?!
[13:32] ---
    Reiji, let's stop the battle
    and save Yuuki.
[13:35] ---
    Keep fighting, Sei.
[13:36] ---
    What?!

[00:02] ---
    What?
[00:04] ---
    Plavsky particles are
    leaking in from somewhere!
[00:08] ---
    What's going on?
[00:17] ---
    The particles are materializing!
[00:19] ---
    It's an emergency!
[00:22] ---
    Is the alteration effect
    going out of control?
[00:26] ---
    Oh no! At this rate,
    the arena will collapse!
[00:30] ---
    Let's evacuate everyone.
[00:32] ---
    Help me!
[00:35] ---
    The emergency exit is this way!
[00:37] ---
    Line up, everyone.
[00:39] ---
    Move forward calmly, please!
[00:43] ---
    Ch-Chairman, please stop the Arista!
[00:46] ---
    I can't, Miss Baker!
[00:48] ---
    It won't stop glowing!
[00:52] ---
    What's going on?!
[01:04] ---
    Space?!
[01:17] ---
    Sei, what's that huge thing?!
[01:20] ---
    Yuuki, that's...
[01:22] ---
    Yeah, there's no doubt.
[01:26] ---
    It's Space Fortress A Baoa Qu.

    Hurry!
[02:00] ---
    You guys?!
[02:01] ---
    P-Prince Reiji, please save me!
[02:04] ---
    I apologize for stealing the Arista
    from your treasure room!
[02:08] ---
    I'm sorry!
[02:09] ---
    You're from Arian?!
[02:12] ---
    Never mind that, just do something!
[02:14] ---
    You're a prince, after all!
[02:17] ---
    What a selfish guy...!
[02:20] ---
    Reiji, we've got to run!
[02:22] ---
    No.
[02:24] ---
    Nils?!
[02:25] ---
    Caro!
[02:26] ---
    We saw a large Plavsky particle
    crystal under the arena,
[02:31] ---
    and it was out of control.
[02:33] ---
    What?!
[02:34] ---
    If the particle emission and
    the alteration effect continue,
[02:38] ---
    even I can't predict
    what kind of disaster will result.
[02:46] ---
    Okay, it still works.
[02:48] ---
    Nils, what are you...?
[02:50] ---
    It's obvious.
[02:52] ---
    Before the worst can happen,
    I'll destroy the crystal!
[02:57] ---
    It's dangerous to go in person.
[02:59] ---
    But if I use my Gunpla to break
    into the core of the fortress...
[03:03] ---
    Okay! I'm with you, Nils.
[03:05] ---
    Reiji?
[03:07] ---
    I'm not gonna turn and run.
[03:10] ---
    If there's anything I can do, I'll do it!
[03:16] ---
    Okay. I'll go, too.
[03:19] ---
    If I ran away, I wouldn't be a man.
[03:22] ---
    Kirara, you run.
[03:24] ---
    What?
[03:26] ---
    You must be kidding.
[03:28] ---
    I'm going too!
[03:29] ---
    I was in the best four of the tournament.
    You need my strength, don't you?
[03:33] ---
    I'll show you what I've got!
[03:39] ---
    You guys are all fools, no doubt.
[03:44] ---
    Let's do this, everyone!

    What's wrong?
[04:48] ---
    I can't find Sei and the others.

    Reiji and China, too.
[04:54] ---
    N-No...!
[04:56] ---

    What happened to the large crystal?
[15:05] ---
    We destroyed it.
[15:07] ---
    I see.
[15:09] ---
    But, it's a little regrettable.
[15:11] ---
    Huh?
[15:12] ---
    Since the Plavsky particles
    were being generated by that crystal,
[15:16] ---
    now we'll never be able to...
[15:19] ---
    Wh-What?!
[15:21] ---

    Huh?
[15:55] ---
    Well, let's get to it.
[15:57] ---
    Huh? Get to what?
[15:59] ---
    We made a promise.
[16:02] ---
    Let's fight a great battle.
[16:05] ---
    So that people all over the world
    can feel the joys of Gunpla.
[16:10] ---
    Yeah, you're right.
[16:13] ---
    Tatsuya Yuuki was being
    controlled by that Mashita guy.
[16:17] ---
    That kind of victory
    doesn't feel like a win.
[16:20] ---
    You're really gonna fight?
[16:22] ---
    Must you do that now?
[16:25] ---
    The particles are disappearing.
[16:28] ---
    We may not be able to
    play Gunpla Battle ever again.
[16:32] ---
    So...
[16:33] ---
    Okay. Let's play.
[16:36] ---
    Yeah, let's play.
[16:37] ---
    But your Gunpla's in no shape to—
[16:43] ---
    Use these.
[16:45] ---
    Please use these.
[16:47] ---
    Thank you, Mr. Fellini and Mao.

    It's the best we can do now.

[17:21] ---
    All the Gunpla fans around the world,
[17:24] ---
    are you watching this?
[17:26] ---
    If you are, keep your eyes on this fight!
[17:31] ---
    Battle start.
[17:32] ---
    Let's go!
[17:33] ---
    Yeah!
[17:50] ---
    Thank you, Iori and Reiji.
[17:53] ---
    This is the battle I've been waiting for!
[17:56] ---
    Yeah. Me, too!
[18:05] ---
    Thank you, Reiji.
[18:07] ---
    What for?
[18:09] ---
    If I hadn't teamed up with you,
    I couldn't have enjoyed a battle like this.
[18:14] ---
    I wanted to be like my dad,
    but I'm bad at controlling Gunpla.
[18:20] ---
    You're not bad at all.
[18:22] ---
    Huh?
[18:23] ---
    You like Gunpla so much that you
    don't want to damage them in battle.
[18:29] ---
    That's why you couldn't
    concentrate on controlling them.
[18:34] ---
    What you were missing wasn't skill,
[18:36] ---
    but the resolve to fight on,
    whatever you might lose.
[18:40] ---
    Yeah.
[18:41] ---
    I've learned that resolve
    from so many people.
[18:45] ---
    Yuuki.
[18:47] ---
    Mr. Fellini. Mao.
[18:49] ---
    Nils. Miss Aila.
[18:53] ---
    Then my Class Rep taught me
    to free my imagination,
[18:57] ---
    along with something
    even more important.
[19:00] ---
    Sei.
[19:07] ---
    If you have all that,
    you can move forward, right?
[19:11] ---
    You think?
[19:12] ---
    Just try.
[19:19] ---
    Here I go!
[19:27] ---
    Good, Sei. Good!
[19:34] ---
    Darn!
[19:49] ---
    Gotcha!
[19:59] ---
    The Plavsky particles are...

[20:13] ---
    Gunpla Battle really is fun.
[20:17] ---
    It's the greatest!
[20:20] ---
    Y-Yeah!
[20:23] ---
    So let's play it together next year,
    and year after that...
[20:28] ---
    Let's keep on being a team!
[20:32] ---
    Why won't you answer me?
[20:34] ---
    We'll play Gunpla Battle
    together forever, right?
[20:37] ---
    Make a wish on that gem!
[20:42] ---
    Sei.
[20:44] ---
    When we fought against each other
    earlier, I had one thought.
[20:49] ---
    I want to play Gunpla Battle
    against you when you're stronger.
[20:53] ---
    That's my wish now.
[20:57] ---
    Reiji...
[21:00] ---
    Become stronger.
[21:04] ---
    I will.
[21:12] ---
    It's a promise.
[21:15] ---
    Yeah.
[21:34] ---
    It's a promise, Sei.
[21:44] ---
    Reiji...
[21:48] ---
    We'll meet again, Sei.
[21:52] ---
    I know we will. The two of us
    will always be connected.
[21:58] ---
    You forgot this.
[22:00] ---
    What?! Wh-Why are you here?!
[22:04] ---
    I-Isn't it obvious?
    I made a wish.
