[00:11] アーシェム
    I'm sorry for leaving so suddenly,
    Yamato, but I must go to Xidol at once.
[00:18] アーシェム
    I promise I will come back.
    So please trust me and wait for me.
[00:24] 大和
    Arshem...
[00:26] 坂東
    "She's not there"?
[00:28] マーガレット
    We've received word she will return.
[00:31] 坂東
    You can't trust these aliens one bit.
[00:35] マーガレット
    Commander Balto of the White Knights
    Order will follow our move.
[00:42] マーガレット
    That means we were not betrayed!
[00:44] 坂東
    Nonetheless, a leader who suddenly
    disappears cannot be counted on!
[00:48] マーガレット
    I still choose to believe!
[00:51] マーガレット
    I have one more report.
[00:55] マーガレット
    Contact has been established with Sanctuary.
[00:59] 坂東
    What?!
[01:01] マーガレット
    Play back incoming video
    transmission from Sanctuary.
[01:05] 坂東
    What?! What is this?!
[01:09] 東山
    An incoming transmission
    from an encrypted source.
[01:11] マーガレット
    Here?! Where is it coming from?
[01:14] 東山
    The signal's detection point is where
    Sanctuary is believed to be located.
[01:22] マーガレット
    Put it through!
[01:24] AIボイス
    Welcome to Sanctuary! The official
    name is Ortega, Home Base.
[01:29] AIボイス
    It is the largest of Earth's bases
    utilizing all of its technologies.
[01:34] 北根
    It's... kinda cute?
[01:37] 清夏
    Sanctuary's mascot perhaps?
[01:40] 天堂
    But what's with the presentation?
[01:42] マーガレット
    Using elements of earthen society
    to prove it's not an alien...
[01:47] AIボイス
    Great work collecting the pieces of
    the counterattack plan. Congratulations!
[01:54] AIボイス
    Now we can complete the ultimate
    Space Battleship Ameno-Murakumo
[01:58] AIボイス
    and defeat the Draktors!
[02:00] AIボイス
    Yay!
[02:01] 東山
    Is this supposed to be some kind of joke?
[02:07] マーガレット
    We've intercepted the transmission.
    They have all they will need now.
[02:13] マーガレット
    They will be able to complete the
    Space Battleship Ameno-Murakumo!
[02:18] マーガレット
    We will, therefore, proceed
    to Sanctuary airspace.
[02:25] クロウゼード
    Arshem is gone?
[02:27] デミル
    We have received a message stating
    she will return, however.
[02:31] クロウゼード
    Doubtful. She's fallen for Grieffas's scheme.
[02:35] デミル
    Grieffas! You don't mean he...?
    What shall we do?
[02:39] クロウゼード
    Grieffas does not know the real Arshem.
[02:43] クロウゼード
    If he awakens her true power,
    Grieffas will doubtlessly fall.
[02:48] デミル
    But isn't it dangerous to let it go on like this?
[02:52] クロウゼード
    Let him show us whether she is
    truly a vessel for the queen.
[03:13] アーシェム
    What is the meaning of this, Grieffas?
[03:16] グリファース
    Would you have returned any other way?
[03:20] アーシェム
    You deceived me!
[03:22] グリファース
    I wish to rebuild Xidol.
[03:25] グリファース
    To turn it into a might nation
    and restore its peace.
[03:29] アーシェム
    Peace created from the
    destruction of the Terrans?!
[03:33] グリファース
    Princess, it is not the
    Terrans that occupy my mind.
[03:38] アーシェム
    What?
[03:39] グリファース
    Those who destroyed Xidol...
    I intend to defeat El Zeid.
SIGN    EPISODE 24
[05:27] マーガレット
    Is that...?
[05:28] 康太
    Sanctuary.
[05:30] 東山
    Ixia. Shift to landing position.
SIGN    LARGE-SCALE TACTICAL BASE: ORTEGA, HOME BASE
[05:33] 金田一
    It's incredible! I can't believe how big it is.
[05:39] 康太
    We've gathered data on Sanctuary.
    It's the largest base ever erected.
[05:44] 康太
    Ortega, Home Base stretches out
    over 25,000 square kilometers.
[05:50] 康太
    On the city level, there is even a joint
    shelter with multiple residential zones.
[06:00] 龍吾
    We're like feudal lords or something.
[06:02] マーガレット
    By the way, did I mention that all
    Megaton pilots must be registered?
[06:14] ディクセンベルグ
    Welcome to Ortega, Home Base.
[06:17] ディクセンベルグ
    Sorry, you're all probably more
    familiar calling it Sanctuary.
[06:26] ディクセンベルグ
    General Margaret, it is an honor to meet you.
[06:30] ディクセンベルグ
    I am the commanding officer of
    this base, Dechart Dixenberg.
[06:35] ディクセンベルグ
    Everyone calls me by my nickname DD.
    It is a pleasure to meet you all.
[06:40] マーガレット
    The pleasure is all mine, Commander
    Dixenberg. Or shall I call you DD?
[06:47] ディクセンベルグ
    Feel free. You did surprise me though.
    I did not expect aliens in tow.
[06:54] マーガレット
    They are not our enemies! They are
    our comrades. They share our goals.
[06:59] ディクセンベルグ
    Comrades, huh? Doesn’t make
    the enemy any weaker, though.
[07:04] ディクセンベルグ
    Now, where is Commander Minami?
    I'd like to finalize our attack plan.
[07:11] マーガレット
    Commander Minami has passed away.
[07:14] ディクセンベルグ
    What?! This plan would never have
    existed without her contributions!
[07:20] ディクセンベルグ
    I wanted her to see the completed base.
[07:23] マーガレット
    The counterattack was but a step to her goal,
    which was to foster peace with the Draktors.
[07:30] マーガレット
    That's why she has given us
    the bargaining power to negotiate with them.
[07:37] ディクセンベルグ
    Her death is a great loss.
[07:40] ディクセンベルグ
    But it is comforting to know she managed
    to see Ixia float before she passed.
[07:49] ディクセンベルグ
    Oh, but where are my manners?
    You must wish to rest after your trip.
[07:55] マーガレット
    No. My grandfather... Would you grant me
    a meeting with Commander Brecknen?
[08:00] ディクセンベルグ
    I suspected you would make such a request.
[08:02] マーガレット
    What?
[08:03] ディクセンベルグ
    Now then, let's go pay a visit
    to the commander-in-chief.
[08:06] ディクセンベルグ
    This person here will give the
    rest of you a tour of the base.
[08:18] 輝
    Sayaka!
[08:26] デューク
    No.
[08:28] セイレーン
    I am Siren, an android tasked with guiding
    everyone around Ortega, Home Base.
[08:36] セイレーン
    Please let me know if I can be of assistance.
[08:38] 大和
    Incredible. She looks just like the commander.
[08:44] ディクセンベルグ
    Shocked? After all her contributions,
    we built an android in her likeness.
[08:52] ディクセンベルグ
    Now, I'll leave it to you.
[08:54] セイレーン
    Understood.
[09:00] セイレーン
    I will be assisting you from this point forward.
[09:04] セイレーン
    Which area shall I show you first?
[09:07] 大和
    Pfft, this android's blowing my mind.
[09:11] 龍吾
    You're tellin' me. He said she was great
    and all, but ain't this a bit much?
[09:17] 輝
    It's thanks to Sayaka that we
    were able to get this far at all.
[09:22] 龍吾
    What're you talkin' about?
    I wasn't really listening.
[09:25] 輝
    Didn't you ever think it odd?
[09:27] 輝
    With the staggering gap between
    Draktors' advanced technology and ours,
[09:32] 輝
    how we've managed to fight against them this far?
[09:35] 大和
    Now that you mention it...
[09:37] セイレーン
    Allow me. Preceding the Draktor invasion,
    Minami Sayaka possessed certain intel.
[09:44] セイレーン
    It outlined the invasion plan and the
    technologies to be used in opposition.
[09:51] セイレーン
    Our primary weapon, the tachyon engines
    that power the Megaton-Class Rogues.
[09:56] セイレーン
    They apply Draktor heterospectral
    photon technologies.
[10:02] 金田一
    Commander Minami was a marvelous woman.
[10:06] 大和
    Sectoral? What the hell is that?
[10:09] 輝
    But the credit should also go to the person
    in charge of the Rogue R&D, Professor Haruma,
[10:15] 輝
    who applied the technology
    and created an innovative system.
[10:18] セイレーン
    That is correct.
[10:19] 大和
    Professor Haruma?
[10:21] セイレーン
    He is the inventor and foremost
    expert on Rogue technologies.
[10:26] 大和
    Wow!
[10:27] 輝
    I wanna meet him.
[10:28] 龍吾
    I bet he could power up my
    Rogue to be even tougher.
[10:32] セイレーン
    In that case, allow me to guide you to him
    in the main Rogue Hangar, "Shinden."
SIGN    ROGUE HANGAR: SHINDEN
[10:48] ハルマ
    I'm Haruma Ryusei, the chief of Rogue development.
[10:52] デューク
    Ryusei! Long time no see!
[10:55] 金田一
    You know each other?! No way!
[10:57] ハルマ
    Oh, but of course. How long has it been?
[11:00] デューク
    I always knew you'd do great things,
    but to think you'd take it so far.
[11:06] 金田一
    Whoooooa! What is that?!
[11:09] 金田一
    I've never seen a Rogue like that!
    It's unlike anything in Ixia's database!
[11:16] ヴィクト
    That type is certainly not like
    anything in the development plan.
[11:20] ハルマ
    Yes, that is Yoshitsune.
[11:22] ハルマ
    This is in fact an improvement on Musashi's frame.
[11:27] ハルマ
    You know your Rogues well.
[11:29] デューク
    Huh?
[11:32] ハルマ
    Yoshitsune is an all-purpose model
    capable of both land and air combat.
[11:37] ハルマ
    Additionally, we've developed a new
    mechanism to overdrive its abilities.
[11:43] ハルマ
    We've also adopted use of the Ogre Exhaust.
[11:46] 金田一
    Amazing! That's all I can say. Amazing!
[11:51] 金田一
    The artistry, the design concept,
    every aspect is of the utmost quality!
[11:56] ハルマ
    Kojiro, come here a moment.
[11:58] 小次郎
    Yes, sir!
[11:59] ハルマ
    I need to get these plugs connected.
    Will you show our guests around for me?
[12:04] ハルマ
    I can't imagine Siren makes
    for the most stimulating host.
[12:07] 輝
    Siren's been most accommodating actually.
[12:10] 小次郎
    Leave it to me, Professor!
[12:13] ハルマ
    Well then, excuse me.
[12:16] 小次郎
    It's nice to meet you. My name is
    Toyama Kojiro. I'm a test pilot.
[12:21] 輝
    Kojiro...
[12:23] 小次郎
    You're Ichidaiji Yamato, right?
[12:25] 大和
    Huh? Uh, yeah.
[12:26] 小次郎
    I can't believe I'm really talking to
    Ichidaiji Yamato! You're like my hero!
[12:30] 大和
    What the heck?
[12:32] 小次郎
    I saw your Rogue combat footage that
    the base's survey drones recovered.
[12:36] 小次郎
    I'd never seen fighting like that!
    I've been a huge fan ever since!
[12:43] 大和
    Okay... No need to flatter me.
[12:46] 龍吾
    And what did you think of Gaudia?
[12:48] 小次郎
    Huh? Oh, I...wasn't really watching.
[12:51] 龍吾
    Wha...!
[13:04] マーガレット
    Where are we?
[13:05] ディクセンベルグ
    Margaret, there is something that I must tell you.
[13:13] マーガレット
    What?! It can't be!
[13:15] ディクセンベルグ
    Commander Brecknen chose to be fused with
    a machine in order to maintain his aging body.
[13:22] ディクセンベルグ
    You can talk to him through a terminal,
    but he's no longer mobile.
[13:29] マーガレット
    Grandfather!
[13:32] ディクセンベルグ
    Upon hearing Commander Brecknen's will,
    the true elder of Earth.
[13:37] ディクセンベルグ
    I am serving as his proxy
    to oversee Earth's forces.
[13:43] ブレクネン
    Margaret...
[13:46] ブレクネン
    You've made it.
[13:49] マーガレット
    Grandfather!
[13:54] 小次郎
    Ortega, Home Base's main
    hangar is called Shinden.
[13:57] 小次郎
    In addition, there are three other
    Rogue Hangars: Sword, Axe, and Lance.
[14:03] 龍吾
    So there're four hangars?
[14:06] 小次郎
    That's right.
[14:08] 輝
    You don't seem to be in combat regularly,
    so is it necessary to have so many?
[14:14] 小次郎
    I've heard we are amassing forces for
    a final battle with the Draktors.
[14:20] 大和
    Stockpiling in advance, huh?
[14:24] 小次郎
    This base has other more important
    facilities than the hangars too.
[14:28] 小次郎
    Arcadia, for example, a large-scale
    dock where Ameno-Murakumo is built.
[14:34] 九世
    I've heard rumors about
    Ameno-Murakumo. Let's go see it!
[14:37] 小次郎
    That is prohibited! No entry permitted
    to anyone without a commander's pass.
[14:41] 小次郎
    It's top secret!
[14:43] 九世
    Tch!
[14:44] 小次郎
    I will show you Ortega's downtown
    area, Pumpkin City, instead.
[14:50] 小次郎
    We have all kinds of entertainment.
[14:53] 小次郎
    You're all VIP guests here, so we've
    reserved our very best hotel for you.
[14:57] ジュン
    For real?! Awesome! This is so exciting!
[15:00] 萌々香
    Let's bring it down a notch, okay?
[15:04] ブレクネン
    Margaret, the time has come...
[15:08] ブレクネン
    Use Ameno-Murakumo, humanity's last resort,
    and the Dimensional Extinction Cannon,
[15:14] ブレクネン
    to annihilate the aliens.
[15:17] マーガレット
    The cannon is out of the question!
    Its axial distortion endangers the Earth!
[15:24] マーガレット
    We cannot use it under any circumstance!
[15:27] マーガレット
    You always told me there was value
    in strength without violence!
[15:32] ブレクネン
    No! We cannot let the crimes
    of those aliens unpunished!
[15:41] マーガレット
    We have to reconcile with the Draktors
    for the sake of Earth's future!
[15:46] ブレクネン
    You would admonish me, Margaret?
[15:51] マーガレット
    This decision will impact the very future
    of Earth! It can't be taken lightly!
[15:57] ブレクネン
    Don't you understand? 99.9% of humans
    are now gone. There is no future.
[16:06] ブレクネン
    Death begets death.
[16:09] マーガレット
    No! That will only create
    a vicious cycle of hatred!
[16:13] マーガレット
    I want to restore Earth and save
    as many lives as I possibly can!
[16:19] ブレクネン
    I have made my decision
    as the Chief Commander of Earth.
[16:25] ブレクネン
    And I will not be swayed
    even by my own granddaughter.
[16:32] マーガレット
    There are those among the aliens
    who wish for the same thing.
[16:37] マーガレット
    I will work in tandem with
    them, and I will end this war!
[16:43] マーガレット
    No matter what my grandfather
    thinks, I will not give in.
SIGN    PUMPKIN CITY
[16:55] 龍吾
    Security's super tight. Somethin' go down?
[16:58] セイレーン
    Everyone's safety is of great concern to us.
[17:02] 大和
    Is it for us?
[17:04] シズカ
    Even here in the base though?
[17:06] 小次郎
    Security is certainly well-staffed today.
[17:10] 大和
    Anyway, where're we going now?
[17:12] デューク
    Wait, where are Kota and Taku?
[17:14] 大和
    Said they had somewhere to be,
    so they're showing themselves around.
[17:18] 小次郎
    Now then, everyone, this way!
[17:27] 九世
    Knowing how diligent she is, she must be
    checking the base's resources at the hotel.
[17:33] 輝
    What's wrong, Masamune?
[17:34] 九世
    Sorry. I'm a bit tired, so I'm
    going to head to the hotel for now.
[17:39] 輝
    Hm?
[17:43] 龍吾
    This is a club, ain't it?!
[17:47] 大和
    Nice! Now we're talking!
[17:49] 輝
    Nothing like this at Akagicho.
[17:58] 小次郎
    C'mon, let's dance, Yamato!
[18:02] 大和
    Yeah, I don't know how.
[18:03] 小次郎
    What's to know? You just
    have to shake your body!
[18:30] 大和
    Wha—!
[18:32] 小次郎
    Yamato!
[18:38] 小次郎
    Brother!
[19:05] ヴィクト
    I don't want to involve
    any innocent people. Let's run!
[19:08] 大和
    Okay!
[19:12] 輝
    Everyone, split up and run!
[19:22] ホテルマン
    Room service!
[19:27] マーガレット
    I didn't order room service.
[19:29] ホテルマン
    This service is complementary
    from management.
[19:41] マーガレット
    I'll call for someone!
[19:43] ホテルマン
    You'll be dead before you get the chance.
[19:53] ホテルマン
    Now let's end this, lady.
[20:00] 九世
    Margaret!
[20:01] マーガレット
    Masamune!
[20:02] 九世
    Are you okay?!
[20:12] 九世
    Who are you?
[20:26] マーガレット
    Is anyone here? There is an intruder, help!
[20:33] マーガレット
    Stay strong, Masamune!
[20:38] 九世
    You look so lovely when you get like this.
[20:41] マーガレット
    What?!
[20:48] 大和・小次郎
    Is everyone all right?
[20:50] 大和
    We're all tougher than that.
[20:53] 大和
    What was that back there, Kojiro?
    Are you specially trained or something?
[21:00] 大和
    And why'd mention "brother"?
[21:02] 小次郎
    Did I say that? I must've
    summoned him unconsciously.
[21:08] 大和
    Huh?
[21:12] 小次郎
    In the chaos, my brother helped evacuate
    a lot of people from the burning city.
[21:19] 小次郎(12才)
    Brother!
[21:20] 大吾
    Kojiro!
[21:21] 大吾
    Kojiro, now's your chance. Run!
    Mom and Dad should be in the shelter.
[21:26] 小次郎(12才)
    If you're not going, I'm staying too!
[21:29] 大吾
    Kojiro, listen to me. I'm here
    to save you and everyone else!
[21:34] 大吾
    You don't want to make this
    harder for me, do you?
[21:37] 小次郎(12才)
    Brother!
[21:39] 大吾
    Now, Kojiro! Go!
[21:44] 小次郎
    I lost them all that day.
[21:48] 小次郎
    And I decided I wanted to
    be strong and kind like him.
[21:57] 大和
    They'd be proud.
[21:58] 小次郎
    But that is most likely what
    caused my sickness to develop.
[22:03] 大和
    What sickness?
[22:04] 小次郎
    I have my brother's personality inside
    me now, and sometimes it possesses me.
[22:13] 輝
    A dissociated identity disorder?
    Generally known as a split personality.
[22:20] 大和
    Teru...
[22:22] 小次郎
    I guess whenever I want his help,
    it causes me to summon his spirit.
[22:29] 大和
    Interesting.
[22:31] 小次郎
    Something about you reminds
    me of my brother, Yamato.
[22:35] 大和
    Me?
[22:36] 小次郎
    So when I saw you were hurt, I just...
[22:40] 大和
    Well, you're strong enough in a fight.
    I'll let you be my little bro for now.
[22:46] 小次郎
    Oh, I... Okay!
[22:49] 大和
    What?
[22:54] 康太
    Look, Takumi! We've got a Sparkman here!
[22:58] 金田一
    Yeah! An amazing Gaudia repro here too.
[23:03] マーク
    Will this trash really do the trick for you two?
[23:06] 金田一
    Huh? What do you mean "trash"?
[23:08] マーク
    I know a place with much
    rarer stuff. Intrigued?
[23:13] 金田一
    I'm listening!
[23:16] マーガレット
    The doctors said it missed any vital
    organs, so he'll pull through.
[23:22] マーガレット
    Right now he's undergoing medical
    treatment and a thorough examination.
[23:25] シズカ
    What a relief.
[23:26] デューク
    Don't stress us all out like that.
[23:28] 大和
    Why'd they try to kill Masamune?
[23:31] マーガレット
    It was most likely an assassin targeting me.
[23:34] 大和
    Same difference! And we almost died too.
[23:38] マーガレット
    Masamune was wounded saving me.
[23:41] 龍吾
    Another Draktor assassin, ya think?
[23:44] 輝
    Or perhaps a traitor who has
    aligned themself with the aliens.
[23:48] マーガレット
    Was this really the work of an alien?
[23:51] デューク
    What?
[23:51] マーガレット
    Just a feeling I can't let go of.
[23:53] 輝
    I doubt it's just a coincidence.
[23:55] 龍吾
    What do you mean?
[23:57] ヴィクト
    You mean to say Ixia's members
    are being targeted, don't you?
[24:01] 龍吾
    Huh?!
[24:03] マーガレット
    I was already on edge after what
    Dixenberg said about Commander Minami.
[24:09] マーガレット
    He was aware of her sacrifice
    to get Ixia to fly.
[24:14] マーガレット
    How could he know of that if
    he was not there to witness it?
[24:18] デューク
    There's something bothering me as well.
[24:23] ヴィクト
    This base is hiding secrets.
    We should poke around.
[24:28] マーガレット
    Yes, but stay vigilant.
[24:31] 九世
    I guess the wound wasn't so deep.
    I was talking with the doctor.
[24:37] 九世
    Hm? What's wrong, everybody?
[24:41] ディクセンベルグ
    You were unsuccessful?
[24:43] ディクセンベルグ
    No matter. Activating this
    will bury the whole base.
[24:49] ディクセンベルグ
    How are the departure preparations?
[24:51] オペレーターA
    Departure should be possible
    tomorrow as planned.
[24:54] ディクセンベルグ
    Good. Not a moment too soon.
[25:03] 毛むくじゃらの男
    Status for Ixion and Cross?
[25:05] 看守
    Delays will be inevitable, but we
    will manage to make it in time.
[25:09] 毛むくじゃらの男
    Make haste.
[25:10] 看守
    Understood, Professor.
[25:30] 輝
    Excuse me.
[25:32] セイレーン
    Yes?
[25:33] 輝
    There's an issue with the video system in my room.
[25:37] セイレーン
    I will resolve it.
[27:09] 輝
    Please look, Sayaka.
[27:15] 輝
    This is our child.
[27:18] 輝
    She's not so little anymore.
[27:22] 輝
    I know she'll grow up to be just
    as beautiful as you, Sayaka.
