[00:00] ---
    And now, match one of the third round
    of the West Tokyo qualifiers.
[00:05] ---
    Team Try Fighters from Seiho
    Academy Middle School versus...
[00:10] ---
    ...team Angelfish, the swimming club
    from Chusui Middle School.
[00:16] ---
    The course of this battle depends
    on what the battlefield will be.
[00:21] ---
    We are loved by water.
[00:23] ---
    The battlefield will love us, too.
[00:26] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[00:32] ---
    Field 13, Tundra.
[00:34] ---
    We are truly loved by water!
[00:38] ---
    Battle start.
[00:40] ---
    Gogg!
[00:40] ---
    Z'Gok!
[00:41] ---
    Zock!
[00:42] ---
    Take your mark!
    Take your mark!
[00:44] ---
    If there's water, we are invincible!
[00:55] ---
    The surface of the sea is frozen?!
[00:59] ---
    President, the ice is so hard
    that we can't go underwater!
[01:02] ---
    No way!
[01:08] ---
    Without water, we are...
[01:12] ---
    We are...
[01:17] ---
    We are...!
    We are...!
[01:21] ---
    Battle ended.
[01:24] ---
    There are no limits, there are no absolutes
    Genkai nante nai zettai nante nai
[01:28] ---
    I was inspired when you said "there are no limits,"
    Genkai nante nai tte kimi no kotoba ni akogarete
[01:35] ---
    So I extended my hand
    Kono te wo nobashitanda
[01:38] ---
    I gave it my all, I cried, I laughed
    Zenkai dashite naite waratte
[01:41] ---
    We're setting out again under the cloudless sky
    Mata kumori no nai sora no shita fumidasu no sa
[01:48] ---
    We're going there!
    Ano basho e
[01:50] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
    We're going there!
    Ano basho e
[01:51] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS
[01:52] ---
    GUNDAM BUILD FIGHTERS TRY
[01:54] ---
    The beginning is always the same
    Hajimari nante onaji de
[01:57] ---
    Our hearts are pierced by burning knives
    Atsukunatta naifu ga bokura no mune wo tsuranuita
[02:04] ---
    We keep on running above the racing rain
    Ame no reesu no ue hashiritsudzukete
[02:08] ---
    We can't forget when we're hurt and lose ourselves
    Kizutsuite miushinattemo mada wasurerarenai kara
[02:13] ---
    The skies are gray,
[02:14] ---
    but we're still showing off our faith!
[02:16] ---
    We no longer care about blame or pain
    Mou ki ni mo naranaize blame to pain
[02:18] ---
    Victory is in our hands
    Uh tsukamitoru no sa eikou
[02:21] ---
    Our hearts are on fire. Flame on!
    Sono haato ni flame on
[02:22] ---
    We're fighting back against the word "never"
    "Zettai nai" tte kotoba ni sakaratte
[02:26] ---
    Reaching toward the dreams we swore we'd realize
    Chikatta yume e to kono te wo nobashiterunda
[02:32] ---
    There's no right answer anymore
    Seikai nante mou nakutatte kotae wa
[02:37] ---
    The answer is within our hearts
    Bokura no mune no naka ni aru
[02:40] ---
    Just grasp it with burning desire
    Futtou shita omoi de tsukamunda
[02:49] ---
    There are no limits
    Genkai nante nai
[02:55] ---
    Well, at any rate...
[02:57] ---
    Anyway, congratulations on
    making it to the quarterfinals.
[03:01] ---
    Well done.
[03:02] ---
    I'm not really happy.
[03:04] ---
    I understand.
[03:09] ---
    The other team just self-destructed.
[03:13] ---
    Even so, victory is victory.
[03:15] ---
    Yuuma is right.
[03:17] ---
    Let's say that luck was on your side.
[03:20] ---
    Thank you for waiting.
[03:21] ---
    We now begin match two.
[03:25] ---
    Let's go see the battle.
[03:26] ---
    The winner of this match will be
    our opponent in the quarterfinals.
[03:31] ---
    Battle start.
[03:35] ---
    Team Babylonia from the Cosmo
    Academy's Aristocracy Department.
[03:39] ---
    This team regularly reaches
    the higher rounds.
[03:42] ---
    All their machines are from
    the Crossbone Vanguard.
[03:46] ---
    Hoshino, who's their opponent?
[03:50] ---
    Well...
[03:51] ---
    Joto Municipal Middle School.
[03:54] ---
    This is their first time
    competing in the championship.
[04:00] ---
    The Destiny Gundam.
[04:02] ---
    Mr. Ral, that Gunpla's just
    a straight assembly, right?
[04:05] ---
    Yes. The other machines are, too.
[04:08] ---
    Hoshino, what do you mean?
[04:10] ---
    I mean it isn't painted or customized.
[04:13] ---
    It was just assembled
    according to the manual.
[04:17] ---
    A Gunpla's performance is
    determined by how it's built.
[04:21] ---
    But they've made it to round three...
[04:23] ---
    ...using Gunpla with the
    lowest possible performance.
[04:26] ---
    Still, their opponent is
    the Cosmo Academy.
[04:29] ---
    They don't have a chance of winning.
[04:35] ---
    Just as I thought...
[04:37] ---
    Nope.
[04:43] ---
    What the...?!
[04:44] ---
    Know your place, snap-fit!
[04:50] ---
    He's fast.
[04:56] ---
    He's like a boxer.
[05:01] ---
    Where'd he go?!
[05:07] ---
    Wow.
[05:22] ---
    Two down with a single blow?!
[05:24] ---
    Amazing.
[05:25] ---
    Battle ended.
[05:29] ---
    Joto Municipal
[05:29] ---
    The winner of match two is
    Joto Municipal Middle School.
[05:32] ---
    The winner of match two is
    Joto Municipal Middle School.
[05:35] ---
    He's strong.
[05:37] ---
    Instead of relying on
    the Gunpla's performance,
[05:40] ---
    he won purely through
    his own control skills.
[05:45] ---
    Interesting!
[05:46] ---
    I wanna fight guys like that!
[05:51] ---
    They may say that
    "necessity knows no law,"
[05:54] ---
    but I've taken too much time.
[05:57] ---
    Gorou.
[05:58] ---
    Are you serious?
[05:59] ---
    Our next opponent's on another level.
[06:02] ---
    We have to do this for Mr. Shimon.
[06:04] ---
    Let's go!
[06:09] ---
    Excuse us.
[06:10] ---
    You're the members of
    team Try Fighters, right?
[06:12] ---
    Yeah, we are.
[06:14] ---
    You guys are from
    Joto Middle School...
[06:16] ---
    Yeah, our next opponent.
[06:26] ---
    We beg you!
[06:27] ---
    In the next quarterfinals,
[06:29] ---
    please let our Joto Middle School team win!
    please let our Joto Middle School team win!
[06:34] ---
    We have... No, Mr. Shimon has...
[06:38] ---
    He has a reason he must win!
[06:49] ---
    Big Brother.
[06:51] ---
    Yo.
[06:52] ---
    Episode 7
    Straight-Assembly Shimon
[06:58] ---
    Brother, did you win the third round, too?
[07:00] ---
    Of course.
[07:01] ---
    Who do you think I am?
[07:03] ---
    You're a middle school boxing champ,
[07:05] ---
    and the strongest Gunpla fighter.
[07:08] ---
    And you're my brother!
[07:11] ---
    That's right.
[07:12] ---
    But it's like a dream.
[07:14] ---
    Though you're controlling it,
[07:16] ---
    I can't believe my Gunpla is
    winning championship matches!
[07:20] ---
    It's too early to be satisfied.
[07:22] ---
    I'll bring you the champion's trophy.
[07:24] ---
    So you build a new Gunpla for
    the National Tournament, okay?
[07:29] ---
    Right.
[07:31] ---
    Work on your rehabilitation, too.
[07:32] ---
    Right.
[07:39] ---
    Leave it to me, Mamoru.
[07:43] ---
    I'll win for sure!
[07:52] ---
    The truth is, Mr. Shimon's
    brother is seriously ill.
[07:56] ---
    He's always in the hospital,
[07:57] ---
    and his only joy is building
    the Gunpla he loves so much.
[08:02] ---
    To encourage his brother,
[08:04] ---
    Mr. Shimon quit boxing, even though
    he won the National Tournament last year.
[08:09] ---
    Instead, he took up Gunpla Battle!
[08:12] ---
    He sacrificed himself so that
    his brother's Gunpla could win.
[08:17] ---
    That's why...
[08:19] ---
    That's why you're
    telling us to let you win?
[08:23] ---
    Is that what you mean?
[08:26] ---
    We know it's an unreasonable request.
[08:30] ---
    Mr. Shimon doesn't know
    that we're doing this.
[08:34] ---
    But after seeing what
    he's done for his brother,
[08:37] ---
    we absolutely must ask you!
[08:41] ---
    What an unfair request.
[08:43] ---
    We have reasons to fight, too.
[08:46] ---
    But our reasons aren't
    as urgent as theirs.
[08:51] ---
    We can play Gunpla Battle anytime.
[08:55] ---
    And we can enter the championship
    next year, and the year after.
[08:58] ---
    So, what are you saying?
[09:00] ---
    Are you going to lose for them?
[09:02] ---
    No...!
[09:04] ---
    But their eyes were really serious.
[09:10] ---
    You're right.
[09:12] ---
    It didn't sound like a lie.
[09:15] ---
    Sekai, what do you think?
[09:19] ---
    Sekai?
[09:21] ---
    Hey, Sekai!
[09:25] ---
    Sekai...
[09:29] ---
    Mr. Ral.
[09:32] ---
    What are you doing?
[09:36] ---
    Miss Hoshino. Kousaka.
[09:40] ---
    Sekai?
[09:42] ---
    Did something happen?
[09:48] ---
    I see.
[09:50] ---
    That's what happened.
[09:51] ---
    Perhaps they're asking themselves
    the reason why they fight.
[09:58] ---
    Whether they should fight,
[10:00] ---
    or just quit the battle.
[10:03] ---
    Even if they choose to fight,
[10:05] ---
    can they ignore the pang
    of their conscience?
[10:09] ---
    And if they go into battle,
[10:12] ---
    what kind of resolve
    should they have in mind?
[10:19] ---
    Won't you teach them
    the meaning of their fight?
[10:23] ---
    It's easy to give them advice.
[10:27] ---
    But that doesn't lead to
    progress in the truest sense.
[10:31] ---
    Thinking for themselves and finding
    their own answer is more valuable.
[10:38] ---
    Even if that answer is a mistake.
[10:47] ---
    Wow, amazing!
[10:49] ---
    How did you build this Gunpla?
[10:51] ---
    Actually, I didn't build it.
[10:54] ---
    Mamoru, who's your friend?
[10:56] ---
    Big brother!
[10:57] ---
    Look at this Gunpla.
    It's really well built!
[11:04] ---
    That Gunpla...!
[11:06] ---
    It's mine.
[11:08] ---
    You're my opponent in the next battle.
[11:11] ---
    I'm Sekai Kamiki of team Try Fighters.
[11:13] ---
    Huh?
[11:15] ---
    Why are you here?
[11:16] ---
    I came to declare war.
[11:18] ---
    To your brother who built the Gunpla,
    and to you who'll fight with it.
[11:22] ---
    I declare that I'll win with...
[11:26] ---
    ...my other self, Build Burning Gundam!
[11:35] ---
    Very interesting.
[11:39] ---
    Sekai...
[11:41] ---
    Why?
[11:45] ---
    What was that about, Sekai?
[11:47] ---
    Why were you there?
[11:49] ---
    How about you, Hoshino?
[11:50] ---
    Huh?
[11:51] ---
    I...
[11:53] ---
    I wanted to test my resolve.
[11:57] ---
    Me, too.
[11:59] ---
    I see.
[12:01] ---
    You, too...
[12:02] ---
    You met his brother,
[12:04] ---
    and yet decided to fight after all.
[12:07] ---
    Yeah.
[12:13] ---
    You asked them...
[12:15] ---
    You asked Sekai Kamiki to let us win?
[12:18] ---
    Why would you do that?!
[12:20] ---
    W-We're sorry.
[12:21] ---
    But Mr. Shimon, we—
[12:23] ---
    Shut up!
[12:24] ---
    We don't need sympathy.
[12:26] ---
    With Mamoru's Gunpla,
    I'll definitely win!
[12:29] ---
    But Seiho Academy isn't
    like our previous opponents.
[12:33] ---
    We'll only get in your way.
[12:44] ---
    Don't worry about that.
[12:47] ---
    Believe in me.
[12:52] ---
    Stick with me, just a little longer.
[12:56] ---
    Okay?
[12:57] ---
    Yes, Mr. Shimon.
[12:59] ---
    We'll believe in your victory.
[13:03] ---
    Okay.
[13:05] ---
    We now begin the quarterfinals
    of the West Tokyo qualifiers.
[13:09] ---
    Match one is team Try Fighters
    from Seiho Academy Middle School,
[13:14] ---
    versus team Faith from
    Joto Municipal Middle School.
[13:19] ---
    Mr. Ral, did they find
    their answer in the end?
[13:23] ---
    We'll see that when the battle starts.
[13:27] ---
    Time to settle our battle, Shimon Izuna!
[13:29] ---
    Bring it on, Sekai Kamiki!
[13:34] ---
    Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
[13:41] ---
    Field 12, Island.
[13:44] ---
    Please set your Gunpla.
[13:53] ---
    Seconds out.
[13:57] ---
    Here we go, Mamoru.
[13:58] ---
    Shimon Izuna,
    Destiny Gundam! Let's box!
[14:09] ---
    They're coming.
[14:10] ---
    Let's go, Gorou and Kouji!
[14:12] ---
    Yes, Mr. Shimon.
    Yes, Mr. Shimon.
[14:18] ---
    I also have a reason to fight!
[14:24] ---
    Is that all you've got?!
[14:28] ---
    Not yet!
[14:34] ---
    He's—!
[14:38] ---
    The truth is, Mr. Shimon's
    brother is seriously ill.
[14:44] ---
    Yuu!
[14:46] ---
    A field-out warning?
[14:47] ---
    Oh no!
[14:55] ---
    Field out.
[14:57] ---
    Kousaka's Gunpla...!
[14:59] ---
    His determination wavered...?
[15:04] ---
    Hoshino! Yuuma is—
[15:05] ---
    I know!
[15:09] ---
    I'm here too...!
[15:13] ---
    I can't move.
[15:15] ---
    Kouji?!
[15:16] ---
    Mr. Shimon, we'll leave this to you.
[15:18] ---
    Stop it, Kouji!
[15:21] ---
    Please...
[15:22] ---
    Please win!
[15:25] ---
    Kouji...
[15:36] ---
    Field out.
[15:39] ---
    I...
[15:41] ---
    I hesitated.
[15:43] ---
    Hoshino, too...
[15:48] ---
    Shimon Izuna!
[15:49] ---
    Sekai Kamiki!
[15:59] ---
    Jigen Haoh School!
[16:01] ---
    (Whirlwind Tornado Kick)
    Senpu Tatsumaki-Geri!
[16:15] ---
    How dare you...!
[16:29] ---
    Is that it?
[16:31] ---
    No. It's just the beginning!
[16:36] ---
    Jigen Haoh School!
[16:38] ---
    (Holy Fist Punch)
    Seiken-Zuki!
[16:44] ---
    A cross-counter!
[16:50] ---
    Sekai.
[16:51] ---
    Sekai!
[16:54] ---
    Not...
[16:55] ---
    Not just yet!
[16:58] ---
    Jigen Haoh School!
[17:02] ---
    Take this!
[17:04] ---
    (Gale Force Punch)
    Shippu-Zuki!
[17:06] ---
    Blow away!
[17:36] ---
    Neither of them can use
    their right arm anymore.
[17:41] ---
    Not bad.
[17:42] ---
    You, too.
[17:59] ---
    At first, I thought
    this was just kid's stuff.
[18:02] ---
    But now I know why Mamoru got into it.
[18:04] ---
    That's right!
[18:05] ---
    This is Gunpla Battle!
[18:08] ---
    I'll win, for Mamoru...
[18:12] ---
    And for myself!
[18:21] ---
    What?!
[18:27] ---
    A flying arm bar?!
[18:33] ---
    Now it's over!
[18:35] ---
    Not yet! I won't let this end!
[18:40] ---
    I can't let it be over!
[18:44] ---
    The Destiny Gundam's
    broken right arm is...!
[18:54] ---
    Sekai, move!
[19:00] ---
    I'm fired up, Shimon!
[19:01] ---
    Yeah, I don't want to finish this yet.
[19:04] ---
    But I'm gonna settle this!
[19:07] ---
    My sentiments exactly!
[19:16] ---
    I didn't think you'd knock me down.
[19:19] ---
    But...
[19:20] ---
    ...the ten-count hasn't sounded yet!
[19:23] ---
    Where is he?
[19:29] ---
    Jigen Haoh School!
[19:31] ---
    (Flashing Black Magic Kick)
    Senko Majutsu-Geri!
[20:04] ---
    Big brother! How was the match?
[20:07] ---
    We lost. I'm sorry.
[20:10] ---
    No, I'm the one who should apologize.
[20:13] ---
    I'll build a much stronger Gunpla!
[20:17] ---
    Like Mr. Kamiki's Build Burning.
[20:19] ---
    I'll customize it, and paint it, too!
[20:21] ---
    I'll build the best Gunpla ever!
[20:25] ---
    Then, will you fight for me again?
[20:28] ---
    Yeah, of course.
[20:31] ---
    I'll get better for sure!
[20:33] ---
    Yeah.
[20:39] ---
    Here you are.
[20:41] ---
    Hoshino.
[20:43] ---
    We got a call from Joto Middle School.
[20:47] ---
    I see.
[20:48] ---
    His brother said that...
[20:50] ---
    Sekai,
[20:52] ---
    did you know this would happen?
[20:54] ---
    Is that why you could fight
    without hesitating?
[20:56] ---
    I did hesitate.
[20:58] ---
    But when I met Shimon Izuna's brother,
[21:02] ---
    and I saw his joyous face,
[21:04] ---
    I remembered something my master said.
[21:08] ---
    "Don't bring a lie to a battle."
[21:11] ---
    Don't lie...
[21:13] ---
    Yes.
[21:15] ---
    If I lost on purpose,
[21:17] ---
    Shimon Izuna's victory would be a lie.
[21:20] ---
    And his brother would
    be delighted over a lie.
[21:25] ---
    I didn't want to do that.
    That's what I thought.
[21:28] ---
    I see.
[21:30] ---
    Yeah.
[21:33] ---
    You're pretty cool.
[21:35] ---
    Huh? What?
[21:36] ---
    Huh?
[21:38] ---
    What did you say?
[21:39] ---
    I said, I'm such a fool.
[21:41] ---
    Why are you a fool?
[21:43] ---
    Because that's what I am!
[21:50] ---
    I don't really understand.
[21:52] ---
    You don't need to!
[21:56] ---
    Go fight!! Go fight!! Ready!!

    I looked out at the gloom one day
    Saenai menshita one day
[22:14] ---
    It can't be defeated this way
    Nankoufuraku no this way
[22:16] ---
    My thoughts are scattered, I wonder to myself
    Edawakare no shikou jimonjitoushite
[22:21] ---
    Is this the right path? Question
    Kocchi de atteru no question
[22:24] ---
    Let's leave it up to chance, motion
    Detatoko shoubu no motion
[22:26] ---
    I stumble along under the crying sky
    Yoromeite susumu naki sora no shita
[22:31] ---
    Don't call it a stereotype
    Suteriotaipu nante
[22:33] ---
    Don't judge, just drop-kick it
    Kimetsukenaide doroppukikku suru ze
[22:36] ---
    Let's hold hands and fly away
    Te wo toriatte tobidasunda
[22:41] ---
    (Fly away! Higher!) Beyond the sky
    (Fly away! Higher!) Sora no kanata
[22:45] ---
    Amazing the world!
[22:48] ---
    If you're with me, I feel like I'll find it
    Issho nara mitsukarisou sa
[22:51] ---
    (Go together!) At supersonic speed,
    (Go together!) Onsoku no haisupiido de
[22:55] ---
    We'll connect the shining points in our hearts
    Mune ni hikaru 'ten' to 'ten' wo tsunagiawase
[23:01] ---
    (Like a rainbow!) With an unshakable bond, find out
    (Like a rainbow!) Yuruginai kizuna de find out
[23:07] ---
    Let's go where the light guides us, dive!
    Hikari sasu hougaku e dive
[23:22] ---
    Go fight!! Go fight!! Let you go!!
[23:27] ---
    N-No way!
[23:29] ---
    The Zeo Zeong I put so much
    effort into building...
[23:35] ---
    What do you say, Mr. President?
[23:37] ---
    Will you choose me as
    a member of your team?
[23:40] ---
    Yes, of course.
[23:41] ---
    Where did you get such ability?
[23:44] ---
    Didn't I tell you?
[23:46] ---
    My previous school was...
[23:49] ---
    ...the private Gunpla Academy.
