The first wave is
doing their best, but...
**[01:54] ---**
I love Gundam.
**[02:03] ---**
I love Gunpla.
**[02:11] ---**
But the person who promised
to fight alongside me...
**[02:17] ---**
...took a different path from mine.
**[02:30] ---**
I don't want to give up.
**[02:49] ---**
Somebody...
**[02:52] ---**
...please fight together with me!
**[02:58] ---**
I want to...
**[03:05] ---**
...play Gunpla Battle!

S-So strong...
**[03:29] ---**
Hey, you.
**[03:32] ---**
Have you seen the girl in this photo?
**[03:37] ---**
Episode 1
The Boy Who Calls the Wind
**[03:45] ---**
Have you seen the girl in this photo?
**[03:49] ---**
I need to know where she is.
**[03:50] ---**
Sh-She's a hottie.
**[03:53] ---**
Is she your girlfriend?
**[03:55] ---**
That's not what I asked.
**[03:57] ---**
I said, do you know where she is?
**[03:59] ---**
I might've seen her...
**[04:02] ---**
Where?!
**[04:02] ---**
I don't know!
Where?!
**[04:03] ---**
I don't know!
**[04:03] ---**
You said you saw her!
**[04:04] ---**
Sorry. Don't get mad!
**[04:06] ---**
Hey, what are you doing?
**[04:09] ---**
This guy just suddenly...
**[04:11] ---**
Help me! He's gonna kill me!
**[04:13] ---**
Help!
**[04:14] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[04:22] ---**
Care to explain what's going on here?
**[04:25] ---**
Seriously?
**[04:28] ---**
I have good news for you all today.
**[04:32] ---**
Yesterday, at the Artistic Gunpla Contest,
**[04:36] ---**
a model made by one of our middle school's
second-year students, Yuuma Kousaka,
**[04:41] ---**
received the glorious Grand Prix.
**[04:45] ---**
Kousaka, please come on stage.
**[04:48] ---**
Yuuma!
**[04:49] ---**
Kousaka!
**[04:51] ---**
Yuuma!
**[04:55] ---**
Yuu...
**[04:58] ---**
So you're not joining
the Gunpla Battle Club?
**[05:02] ---**
Why not?
**[05:04] ---**
I've lost interest.
**[05:08] ---**
I'm not into Gunpla Battle anymore.
**[05:17] ---**
Miyaga.
**[05:19] ---**
Kousaka is really amazing.
**[05:22] ---**
As the president of
the Plastic Model Club,
**[05:24] ---**
I'm proud to have such
an excellent club member.
**[05:27] ---**
I guess.
**[05:30] ---**
Hoshino, when are you going to
give up on the Gunpla Battle Club?
**[05:35] ---**
That club only exists because a
student here won the World Tournament.
**[05:42] ---**
But that was seven years ago.
**[05:45] ---**
The glory is long past.
**[05:47] ---**
In fact, as of this year,
you're the only member left.
**[05:53] ---**
That's because the Plastic Model Club
stole all our members!
**[05:55] ---**
That's not very nice.
**[05:57] ---**
We attract more people
because we win contests,
**[06:01] ---**
while your Gunpla Battle Club
loses in the first round every year.
**[06:07] ---**
Gunpla Battle makes
no sense in the first place.
**[06:10] ---**
You fight with the model
you put so much effort into building,
**[06:13] ---**
and it's ruined if you lose.
**[06:15] ---**
The whole idea is a contradiction.
**[06:19] ---**
Originally, the right and proper
path of plastic modeling...
**[06:22] ---**
...was to enjoy the building process
and seek the perfection of your work.
**[06:28] ---**
Hoshino,
**[06:30] ---**
I have great respect for
your ability as a Gunpla builder.
**[06:34] ---**
You're welcome to join our club anytime.
**[06:38] ---**
No thanks.
**[06:39] ---**
I want to play Gunpla Battle.
**[06:45] ---**
Fumina Hoshino...
**[06:47] ---**
...you're pushing yourself too hard.
**[06:49] ---**
But that stubbornness is
also one of your charms.
**[06:54] ---**
Darn that Praying Mantis Man!
Everything he says is so creepy!
**[06:59] ---**
Mirai Kamiki of senior high school,
second year class A,
**[07:03] ---**
please come to the teachers' office.
**[07:05] ---**
Mirai, they're calling you.
**[07:06] ---**
Mirai Kamiki of senior high school,
second year class A...
**[07:07] ---**
Mirai Kamiki of senior high school,
second year class A...
**[07:09] ---**
Mirai Kamiki of senior high school,
second year class A...
**[07:09] ---**
Right.
**[07:11] ---**
I'm telling you!
**[07:12] ---**
They suddenly ganged up on me.
**[07:15] ---**
They said I was obnoxious!
**[07:17] ---**
And so it became a fight?
**[07:19] ---**
It wasn't a fight!
**[07:20] ---**
You know, it was...
**[07:21] ---**
...just self-defense.
**[07:24] ---**
You took them all down by yourself?
**[07:29] ---**
I know a bit of martial arts.
**[07:31] ---**
Karate?
**[07:32] ---**
Have you ever heard of the
Jigen Haoh School of Kenpo?
**[07:35] ---**
No.
**[07:36] ---**
I guess it is pretty obscure.
**[07:38] ---**
Anyway, I contacted your guardian.
**[07:41] ---**
Huh? Did you tell her what happened?
**[07:43] ---**
Of course I did.
**[07:45] ---**
By the way, you only gave us her name.
It was hard to find her contact info.
**[07:50] ---**
Um, excuse me...
**[07:54] ---**
I'm Mirai Kamiki,
Sekai Kamiki's guardian.
**[07:59] ---**
I'm sorry he caused so much trouble.
**[08:06] ---**
Y-Yes...
**[08:12] ---**
Teachers' Office
**[08:13] ---**
You want to enter
the Gunpla Battle Championship?
**[08:17] ---**
But Hoshino, you need
a team of three people.
**[08:21] ---**
You're the only member, so...
**[08:23] ---**
I have until the entry deadline
to get more members!
**[08:27] ---**
Excuse me.
**[08:28] ---**
I'm Sekai Kamiki,
the new transfer student.
**[08:31] ---**
Transfer student?
**[08:32] ---**
We weren't told about it
at the staff meeting.
**[08:36] ---**
I was supposed to be here
more than a month ago.
**[08:38] ---**
A month? Why are you so late?!
**[08:41] ---**
Well, I was on a training trip
with my master.
**[08:45] ---**
Anyway, which class should I join?
**[08:48] ---**
Wait just a minute.
**[08:50] ---**
I'll ask the grade's head teacher.
**[08:53] ---**
What's your name again?
**[08:55] ---**
Sekai Kamiki.
**[08:56] ---**
And your grade?
**[08:57] ---**
Second year.
**[08:58] ---**
Sekai Kamiki, second year...
**[09:01] ---**
Wait here.
**[09:02] ---**
Okay, thank you.
**[09:10] ---**
You're a student here, right?
**[09:13] ---**
I'm Fumina Hoshino, third year.
Nice to meet you, new guy.
**[09:18] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[09:21] ---**
So, um, is there a karate club here?
**[09:25] ---**
A karate club? No.
**[09:27] ---**
Well, how about a judo or kendo club?
**[09:29] ---**
Nope. There aren't any
martial arts clubs at our school.
**[09:34] ---**
What?! Then which club should I join?
**[09:40] ---**
Hey, do you like Gunpla?
**[09:43] ---**
Gunpla? What's that?
**[09:46] ---**
Gundam plastic models.
Commonly known as Gunpla.
**[09:52] ---**
Never heard of it?
**[09:54] ---**
Yeah.
**[09:55] ---**
Unbelievable!
**[09:56] ---**
To think, there's a boy today
who's never heard of Gunpla!
**[10:00] ---**
What the heck? It's not like he
transferred here from another planet.
**[10:04] ---**
So this Gun-whatever...
It's that famous?
**[10:10] ---**
Of course!
**[10:12] ---**
Hey, why don't you try
playing Gunpla Battle?
**[10:15] ---**
It's a real...
**[10:16] ---**
No, it's the ultimate battle!
**[10:20] ---**
Ultimate battle?!
**[10:21] ---**
So you do have a martial arts club!
**[10:24] ---**
Why didn't you tell me?
**[10:27] ---**
Sorry.
**[10:28] ---**
Off to the club room, then.
**[10:30] ---**
But I...
**[10:32] ---**
Let's go, let's go!
**[10:33] ---**
H-Hey...
**[10:37] ---**
Sekai Kamiki, second year class B.
**[10:42] ---**
Huh? Where'd he go?
**[10:53] ---**
Where's the training hall?
**[10:55] ---**
Sorry for the wait.
**[10:59] ---**
This is a plastic model
used for Gunpla Battle.
**[11:04] ---**
A Gunpla!
**[11:12] ---**
I'm leaving!
**[11:13] ---**
N-No, wait!
**[11:15] ---**
That thing is just a toy!
**[11:17] ---**
It's a plastic model. A Gunpla!
**[11:19] ---**
C'mon, let go of the door!
**[11:24] ---**
Gunpla Battle simulation mode, startup.
**[11:29] ---**
Model damage level, set to C.
**[11:32] ---**
Gunpla Battle is played
within this battle system.
**[11:39] ---**
Why are you explaining
this to me with a smile?!
**[11:41] ---**
Anyway, just untie me!
**[11:43] ---**
Please set your GP Base.
Anyway, just untie me!
**[11:43] ---**
Please set your GP Base.
**[11:45] ---**
First you set the GP Base, which
contains the Gunpla and fighter data.
**[11:49] ---**
Are you ignoring me?!
**[11:50] ---**
Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
**[11:59] ---**
Well? Isn't it beautiful?
**[12:01] ---**
You'll be amazed to see
what these shiny particles can do.
**[12:06] ---**
Field 2, Desert.
**[12:09] ---**
They turn into this!
**[12:11] ---**
It looks so real.
**[12:13] ---**
And...
**[12:15] ---**
When you set your Gunpla
on the GP Base,
**[12:18] ---**
you're ready to battle.
**[12:27] ---**
Battle start.
**[12:28] ---**
Fumina Hoshino,
Powered GM Cardigan, here I go!
**[12:40] ---**
Wow, it flies!
**[12:41] ---**
Using this console,
you can move the Gunpla.
**[12:49] ---**
Awesome! It looks like it's alive!
**[12:52] ---**
What's that?
**[12:56] ---**
It's the simulation mode's enemy machine.
**[12:58] ---**
Huh?
**[13:00] ---**
Just watch.
**[13:03] ---**
It fired a beam?!
**[13:07] ---**
There are weapons like this, too.
**[13:24] ---**
What do you think?
This is Gunpla Battle!
**[13:27] ---**
Gunpla Battle...
**[13:29] ---**
Sekai, don't you want to try?
**[13:31] ---**
I'll show you how.
**[13:40] ---**
Choose whichever one you like.
**[13:53] ---**
The 7th World Tournament champion,
**[13:56] ---**
Sei Iori and Reiji.
**[14:04] ---**
Th-This is...
**[14:07] ---**
Have you chosen your Gunpla?
**[14:10] ---**
I pick this one!
**[14:12] ---**
The Zeon forces' heavy mobile suit Dom.
**[14:15] ---**
Great choice.
**[14:18] ---**
But I didn't know we had one of those...
**[14:23] ---**
Now try to move it like I told you.
**[14:26] ---**
Okay, here goes!
**[14:36] ---**
Yeah, not bad.
**[14:39] ---**
Sekai, change the move slot to number two.
**[14:43] ---**
This one?
**[14:52] ---**
It's sliding on the ground!
**[14:53] ---**
This is hover mode.
**[14:56] ---**
Wow. This is fun!
**[15:02] ---**
Wait! If you go too far—
**[15:04] ---**
Huh?
**[15:06] ---**
You'll be out of bounds!
**[15:17] ---**
Ouch...
**[15:19] ---**
The Gunpla...
**[15:23] ---**
What a relief.
**[15:29] ---**
O-Once it's out of bounds,
the Gunpla stops moving, so be careful.
**[15:33] ---**
Oh, okay.
**[15:36] ---**
What are you...
**[15:39] ---**
What are you guys doing?
**[15:46] ---**
I see... So that was just an accident.
**[15:50] ---**
I'm relieved.
**[15:52] ---**
Anyway, are you a new member?
**[15:55] ---**
It looks like you have no experience
in either battle or model-building.
**[16:00] ---**
Hoshino, are you seriously thinking...
**[16:02] ---**
...of entering the Gunpla Battle
Championship with this amateur?
**[16:06] ---**
Is that a problem?
**[16:07] ---**
You'll only embarrass yourself.
**[16:09] ---**
You came out of nowhere.
Who the heck are you?
**[16:13] ---**
I'm Daiki Miyaga, the president
of the Plastic Model Club.
**[16:16] ---**
You'd better watch your attitude
towards upperclassmen.
**[16:21] ---**
"You should be rude to rude people."
**[16:23] ---**
That's my master's teaching.
**[16:26] ---**
If you're such a big talker,
**[16:28] ---**
I suppose you're strong
in Gunpla Battle.
**[16:32] ---**
Wanna try me?
**[16:33] ---**
Sure. I know a bit about battle, too.
**[16:37] ---**
Wait!
**[16:38] ---**
Sekai just started battling today.
**[16:40] ---**
There are only two months
until the regional qualifiers.
**[16:43] ---**
You don't have time
to be so laid back.
**[16:47] ---**
Then I'll play, too.
**[16:50] ---**
I'll support you.
That's okay, right?
**[16:53] ---**
Yes, go ahead.
**[16:56] ---**
Plastic Model Club
**[16:56] ---**
Hey!
**[16:57] ---**
President Miyaga is fighting
the members of the Battle Club!
**[17:11] ---**
A Gunpla Battle, eh?
**[17:14] ---**
An Enact.
**[17:17] ---**
No wonder he's club president. It's built well.
**[17:21] ---**
This is nothing.
**[17:23] ---**
Any member of my club could
build a model like this in two days!
**[17:31] ---**
It's faster than it looks.
**[17:33] ---**
Hoshino!
**[17:35] ---**
No! If you go forward—
**[17:38] ---**
Amateur!
**[17:49] ---**
Sekai!
**[17:54] ---**
You obsess over Gunpla Battle.
But I'll tell you the truth.
**[18:00] ---**
The student council executives...
**[18:02] ---**
...are thinking about shutting down
the Gunpla Battle Club.
**[18:05] ---**
Shutting it down?
**[18:15] ---**
You'll be shut down on the grounds...
**[18:16] ---**
...that you're inferior to the
Plastic Model Club at battling.
**[18:21] ---**
So, that's why you challenged us.
**[18:24] ---**
You jerk!
**[18:25] ---**
I asked you so many times
to join my club.
**[18:28] ---**
But you kept turning me down!
**[18:31] ---**
You spurned my kindness!
**[18:33] ---**
You're so selfish!
**[18:46] ---**
Y-You!
**[18:49] ---**
Your opponent...
**[18:51] ---**
...is me!
**[18:57] ---**
Sekai!
**[18:59] ---**
Don't worry, Hoshino.
**[19:06] ---**
I have...
**[19:09] ---**
...this!
**[19:15] ---**
What can you do without weapons?
**[19:21] ---**
I'll skewer you!
**[19:38] ---**
W-With your bare hands?!
**[19:54] ---**
Jigen Haoh School!
**[19:56] ---**
(Holy Fist Punch)
Seiken-Zuki!
**[20:19] ---**
My work of art...
**[20:22] ---**
Sekai...
**[20:23] ---**
I can't believe this was
his first Gunpla Battle.
**[20:26] ---**
He reminds me of seven years ago.
**[20:29] ---**
It's like the second coming of Reiji.
**[20:34] ---**
How was my fist?
**[20:36] ---**
This is...
**[20:37] ---**
...the Jigen Haoh School!
**[20:46] ---**
What?!
**[20:46] ---**
An attack?
**[20:47] ---**
By who?
**[20:57] ---**
That's China's...
**[21:00] ---**
Yuu.
**[21:02] ---**
Kousaka, you came!
**[21:04] ---**
Show them how inferior
the Battle Club is!
**[21:10] ---**
A surprise attack. How could you...!
**[21:20] ---**
I should be dodging his shots!
Can he read my moves?
**[21:27] ---**
Stop! This battle is already—
**[21:29] ---**
Not yet!
**[21:31] ---**
I hear it. This Gunpla's loud roar.
**[21:35] ---**
I can't lose. I haven't lost yet!
