    Admission process, check.
[00:05] ---
    Uniform, check.
[00:07] ---
    School regulations, check.
[00:08] ---
    Cockpit regulations, check.
[00:13] ---
    Don't worry, Aerial.
[00:14] ---
    I did an application for you, too.
[00:17] ---
    Arriving at Front Sector 73,
[00:19] ---
    Asticassia School of Technology, in five minutes.
[00:23] ---
    The ship will now enter a docking course.
[00:47] ---
    That's the school?
[00:50] ---
    Mom, I finally made it!
[00:58] ---
    What? No way! You can't!
[01:03] ---
    This is the bridge.
[01:04] ---
    They'll die!
[01:05] ---
    What?
[01:06] ---
    S-Someone is...
[01:09] ---
    1\an8}Someone is outside!
[01:10] ---
    Rescue team, alert.
[01:11] ---
    A person is in need of rescue.
[01:13] ---
    Prepare for extravehicular activity.
[01:14] ---
    Roger!
[01:15] ---
    Please confirm victim's status.
[01:17] ---
    It should be over here.
[01:19] ---
    Are there any signs of collision with debris?
[01:22] ---
    If you move forward, you gain two.
[01:24] ---
    What?
[01:25] ---
    I'll save them!
[01:29] ---
    Hey! What do you think you're doing?
[01:31] ---
    Leave the rescue to us!
[01:37] ---
    Do they intend to leave the ship?
[01:38] ---
    Damn it...
[01:40] ---
    Attention mobile suit pilot!
[01:42] ---
    We're opening the exit hatch.
[01:44] ---
    Stay put until then!
[01:46] ---
    I-I'm sorry.
[01:48] ---
    If you spot someone
    in need of rescue, let us know.

[01:51] ---
    We'll respond immediately.
[01:52] ---
    Yes sir!
[02:28] ---
    Almost out of oxygen. Beginning rescue!
[02:44] ---
    Are...
[02:45] ---
    Are you okay?
[02:46] ---
    Hello? Can you--
[02:49] ---
    Don't interfere!
[02:52] ---
    Excuse me?
[02:53] ---
    I'd almost made my escape!
[02:55] ---
    Because of you, it's all for nothing!
[02:57] ---
    You'll take responsibility for this.
[03:01] ---
    Sure.
[04:38] ---
    Ms. Suletta Mercury?
[04:41] ---
    Y-Yes!
[04:42] ---
    You're here to observe the drills, right?
[04:45] ---
    I'm Nika Nanaura,
    a second-year student in Mechanics.
[04:48] ---
    If you have any questions, just ask.
[04:50] ---
    Yes, M...
[04:53] ---
    Thank y...
[04:55] ---
    Thank y-you verr...
[04:56] ---
    Are you nervous?
[04:57] ---
    I-I've never...
[05:00] ---
    been to...
[05:01] ---
    a school before.
[05:03] ---
    It's your first time?
[05:05] ---
    Say, is it true you're from Mercury?
[05:07] ---
    Do people live there?
[05:10] ---
    
[05:11] ---
    What's your major?
[05:12] ---
    I'm in the Piloting department...
[05:15] ---
    That makes you one of the elite!
[05:16] ---
    What did you transfer here for?
[05:18] ---
    My mother...
[05:21] ---
    told me to go.
[05:23] ---
    Your mother?
[05:25] ---
    So did she also tell you
    to wear that old-fashioned hair band?
[05:29] ---
    Cut it out!
[05:32] ---
    Yes, of course!
[05:34] ---
    Seriously?
[05:46] ---
    Miorine Rembran.
[05:48] ---
    I've heard what happened.
[05:49] ---
    Prepare immediately to join the class.
[05:52] ---
    Yes sir.
[05:53] ---
    I-I'll take...
[05:57] ---
    I'll take responsibility!
[06:00] ---
    I-I'll help you with your escape!
[06:02] ---
    Just tell me what I should do!
[06:05] ---
    It's you!
[06:05] ---
    You're the girl who got in my way!
[06:07] ---
    Responsibility?
[06:08] ---
    What's that?
[06:09] ---
    Idiot!
[06:10] ---
    This isn't the place...
[06:10] ---
    Responsibility, huh?
[06:11] ---
    Why not let her take it?
[06:13] ---
    You want to run away, right?
[06:15] ---
    To Earth.
[06:17] ---
    Class is in session!
[06:18] ---
    No more chatter!
[06:20] ---
    Earth?
[06:50] ---
    A red Dilanza.
[06:52] ---
    It must be Guel Jeturk.
[06:54] ---
    Apologies for interrupting your drills.
[06:56] ---
    This is an official duel,
[06:59] ---
    approved by the Dueling Committee.
[07:01] ---
    I, Shaddiq Zenelli, will be the witness.
[07:05] ---
    I ask that no one interfere.
[07:08] ---
    A duel?
[07:20] ---
    Hey! That way is...
[07:23] ---
    No way.
[07:23] ---
    Are they coming toward us?
[07:25] ---
    Go, Guel!
[07:26] ---
    Get him!
[07:31] ---
    Ms. Suletta!
[07:34] ---
    You fool! Do you want to get hit?
[07:38] ---
    Run!
[07:52] ---
    Did you see that, Miorine?
[07:55] ---
    How Guel Jeturk fights his duels!
[07:59] ---
    Both you and the company
[08:01] ---
    will be mine before long.
[08:04] ---
    Class is still in session, brother.
[08:06] ---
    Leave here immediately.
[08:08] ---
    The bastard down there laughed at me.
[08:11] ---
    Calling me a man with a runaway bride.
[08:14] ---
    Bride?
[08:15] ---
    That jerk.
[08:19] ---
    Hold it, Miorine!
[08:20] ---
    The rules say that when you lose,
    you apologize like a groveling worm.
[08:24] ---
    I want you to see how he does that.
[08:46] ---
    I'm home.
[08:47] ---
    E-Excuse me!
[08:50] ---
    You again?
[08:51] ---
    I-I just wanted to thank you
[08:55] ---
    for saving me earlier.
[08:56] ---
    
[08:58] ---
    M-Ms. Miorine,
[09:00] ---
    About your fiance--
[09:01] ---
    Stop. I never agreed to any of that.
[09:05] ---
    You mean that guy
[09:06] ---
    just decided on his own that you're engaged?
[09:10] ---
    -It was a duel.
    -
[09:11] ---
    What?
[09:12] ---
    At our school,
[09:14] ---
    the students settle
    important matters through duels.
[09:18] ---
    Money, authority, apologies...
[09:21] ---
    Even marriage partners.
[09:23] ---
    So you're going to marry him?
[09:27] ---
    Why?
[09:28] ---
    My lousy father designed it that way.
[09:33] ---
    Jeturk Heavy Machinery,
[09:36] ---
    Peil Technologies,
[09:39] ---
    Grassley Defense Systems...
[09:42] ---
    These three are the Benerit Group's
    highest earners for this period.
[09:49] ---
    However,
[09:51] ---
    the Parneo Company has recorded a loss
[09:53] ---
    for three consecutive periods.
[09:56] ---
    Our group has no need
    for companies in the red.
[10:00] ---
    I am hereby suspending their access
    to the group's finances.
[10:04] ---
    Wait a minute, President Delling!
[10:06] ---
    If that happens, we'll go bank--
[10:09] ---
    Exactly.
[10:10] ---
    You'll go bankrupt.
[10:13] ---
    Their financial documents indicate
    there is potential for recovery.
[10:17] ---
    They've had their chance.
[10:19] ---
    The only thing I'm interested in is results.
[10:29] ---
    I've assigned two agents
    to keep watch on Mistress Miorine.
[10:32] ---
    Would you like to meet them?
[10:34] ---
    For what?
[10:36] ---
    You know better than to waste my time.
[10:48] ---
    Stay out!
[10:49] ---
    I-I'm sorry!
[10:51] ---
    What is your deal?
[10:53] ---
    Excuse me, what is that?
[10:57] ---
    What is what?
[10:59] ---
    It's a tomato, naturally.
[11:01] ---
    That's a tomato?
[11:03] ---
    What exactly do you Mercurians eat?
[11:06] ---
    We do have tomato flavoring, but...
[11:19] ---
    Here.
[11:21] ---
    Th-Thank you!
[11:25] ---
    Just bite into it.
[11:33] ---
    It's good!
[11:35] ---
    Not all tomatoes taste good.
[11:38] ---
    That one's special.
[11:41] ---
    My mother made it.
[11:43] ---
    She made a tomato?
[11:44] ---
    That specific breed, of course!
[11:47] ---
    Your mother...
[11:50] ---
    It's the same for me.
[11:53] ---
    My mother
[11:55] ---
    sent me here to study, so that I could
[11:59] ---
    make Mercury a more prosperous planet.
[12:01] ---
    That's why...
[12:03] ---
    I see.
[12:04] ---
    So your mother is still alive.
[12:07] ---
    S-S-Sorry!
[12:10] ---
    Hand me your student notebook.
[12:12] ---
    Why?
[12:15] ---
    You don't know the way back, right?
[12:18] ---
    Once I've given you the school map app,
    scram and leave me alone.
[12:22] ---
    Playing farmer again?
[12:24] ---
    All this pretending you're on Earth...
[12:26] ---
    what's it good for?
[12:28] ---
    Guel.
[12:30] ---
    You can't just barge in here.
[12:31] ---
    I came up with a bright idea.
[12:34] ---
    From now on, you're gonna live
    with us at Jeturk House.
[12:38] ---
    We can't have any more
    escape attempts, after all.
[12:41] ---
    I never agreed to this.
[12:44] ---
    It's your father who made the rules.
[12:46] ---
    Do we always have to follow
    what our parents decide?
[12:49] ---
    Aren't you daddy's little lap dog.
[12:54] ---
    What are you doing? Leave them alone!
[13:00] ---
    Oh, how clumsy, my lady!
[13:02] ---
    Better watch yourself!
[13:05] ---
    W-We have to... we have to stop--
[13:07] ---
    If you want to stop my brother, do it yourself.
[13:11] ---
    Sh-She needs h...
[13:16] ---
    I've been too lenient with you, it seems.
[13:18] ---
    As your future husband,
[13:20] ---
    I'll have to teach you some discipline.
[13:23] ---
    You just need to shut your mouth
    and give yourself over to me.
[13:33] ---
    D-D-Didn't your mother ever teach you?
[13:37] ---
    You can't act like that!
[13:40] ---
    What the hell's your problem?
[13:43] ---
    
[13:43] ---
    Don't you know who I am?
[13:45] ---
    Um, well...
[13:47] ---
    A pushy suitor?
[13:50] ---
    I happen to be
[13:52] ---
    the heir to one of
    the three branches of the Benerit Group,
[13:55] ---
    the head of the Dueling Committee,
[13:57] ---
    and the reigning Holder!
[13:59] ---
    Holder?
[14:01] ---
    The school's number one pilot,
    as chosen through duels.
[14:05] ---
    Th-That may be true, but...
[14:08] ---
    But what's wrong is wrong!
[14:11] ---
    Please tell Ms. Miorine
[14:13] ---
    that you're sorry!
[14:16] ---
    Here at this school,
[14:17] ---
    right and wrong are decided through duels.
[14:21] ---
    Or would you like to duel me yourself?
[14:25] ---
    I accept.
[14:27] ---
    What?
[14:28] ---
    You and I will duel!
[14:32] ---
    Stop it! This has nothing to do with you!
[14:35] ---
    Sounds fun.
[14:37] ---
    If you lose, you'll have to leave the school.
[14:39] ---
    Right.
[14:40] ---
    You idiot!
[14:42] ---
    I'll do it.
[14:45] ---
    Send the carrier to Gate No. 2!
[14:47] ---
    Load it with spare packs, too!
[14:51] ---
    The carrier is now moving to Gate No.2.
[14:54] ---
    Spare packages are loaded.
[14:56] ---
    There's gonna be a duel!
[14:57] ---
    With Mr. Guel!
[14:59] ---
    Who's he against?
[15:00] ---
    A transfer student, I hear.
[15:01] ---
    Passage to tactical testing sector.
[15:03] ---
    No obstacles.
[15:04] ---
    Takeoff granted!
[15:10] ---
    Are you sure about this?
[15:11] ---
    If Delling dies,
[15:13] ---
    my son Guel's engagement will be secured.
[15:17] ---
    I have to act before the results
    of these silly "duels" are nullified.
[15:21] ---
    Set the detonation
    for ten minutes after launch.
[15:26] ---
    Delling...
[15:28] ---
    our long friendship ends today.
[15:36] ---
    Environmental setting data
    for tactical testing sector received.

[15:40] ---
    Coriolis correction, stable.
[15:42] ---
    Bioinfo, identification complete.
[15:45] ---
    Permet link, satisfactory.
[15:48] ---
    KP001, Guel Jeturk.
[15:52] ---
    Dilanza, let's go!
[16:03] ---
    Show-off.
[16:05] ---
    Aren't you going to watch, Elan?
[16:07] ---
    Who cares.
[16:09] ---
    Why accept a duel from that country bumpkin?
[16:12] ---
    I'll make it quick for her.
[16:14] ---
    I'm the future ace of Dominicus, after all.
[16:19] ---
    There she is. The Mercurian girl.
[16:23] ---
    Tricolor means a three-colored flag,
[16:24] ---
    She's got a flashy one, too.
[16:27] ---
    especially the national emblem of old France.
[16:27] ---
    I don't see a logo. Could it be handmade?
[16:30] ---
    Arriving at the designated coordinates.
[16:31] ---
    With mutual consent by both parties,
[16:34] ---
    we will now begin the duel.
[16:36] ---
    As always, victory will go
[16:38] ---
    to the first one to break the blade antenna
    of their opponent's mobile suit.
[16:42] ---
    Both parties, face off!
[16:46] ---
    What?
[16:47] ---
    Isn't that the princess?
[16:48] ---
    I thought it was the transfer student?
[16:50] ---
    How did Ms. Miorine board Aerial?
[16:55] ---
    Right.
[16:56] ---
    Ms. Suletta?
[16:59] ---
    What's wrong?
[17:00] ---
    What's the meaning of this, Miorine?
[17:05] ---
    I'm sick of people making decisions for me.
[17:08] ---
    This is my fight!
[17:12] ---
    Impudent girl. Have it your way.
[17:15] ---
    I'll show you firsthand
    that you're no match for me.
[17:19] ---
    Guel?
[17:20] ---
    Do you approve the change in duel opponent?
[17:23] ---
    I approve.
[17:25] ---
    Victory is never decided by
    mobile suit performance alone.
[17:29] ---
    Nor by the skill of the pilot, alone.
[17:33] ---
    The result itself is the only truth!
[17:33] ---
    The result itself is the only truth!
[17:36] ---
    Fix release!
[17:40] ---
    Weapons. Where are the weapons?
[17:51] ---
    Did you think any amateur
    could handle a mobile suit?
[17:56] ---
    Two minutes left.
[18:01] ---
    It's my life...
[18:03] ---
    let me do as I please!
[18:04] ---
    I'll decide for myself!
[18:12] ---
    The princess of Management Strategy
    has no chance of winning.
[18:17] ---
    Take a good look at yourself.
[18:21] ---
    You're nothing more than a trophy.
[18:25] ---
    An alert?
[18:27] ---
    What? An intruder?
[18:30] ---
    Who the hell are you?
[18:33] ---
    Exceeding speed limit. Please decrease speed.
[18:37] ---
    Why is it showing your name, Nika?
[18:39] ---
    I guess I helped.
[18:45] ---
    Why is--
[18:48] ---
    What are you doing?
[18:49] ---
    Give it back!
[18:50] ---
    What?
[18:51] ---
    Aerial is mine!
[18:53] ---
    I told you, this has nothing to do with you!
[18:56] ---
    Then fight in your own mobile suit!
[19:00] ---
    1\an8}Don't be so stingy!

[19:00] ---
    What's going on?
[19:01] ---
    A falling-out?
[19:01] ---
    It's just another mobile suit!
[19:03] ---
    Aerial isn't just another one!
[19:06] ---
    We were raised together,
[19:09] ---
    as family!
[19:11] ---
    Family?
[19:12] ---
    Why don't you let me fulfill
    my responsibility by winning?
[19:15] ---
    Aerial and I will never
[19:17] ---
    lose to the likes of him!
[19:19] ---
    "The likes of him"?
[19:22] ---
    Shaddiq, I'm changing opponents again!
[19:26] ---
    Give him the go ahead, Cecilia.
[19:28] ---
    Sure thing.
[19:33] ---
    Brother!
[19:34] ---
    I'll correct your ignorance,
    you country bumpkin!
[19:40] ---
    Straight ahead!
[19:41] ---
    My mother taught me,
[19:43] ---
    "If you run, you gain one,"
[19:45] ---
    "but if you move forward, you gain two."
[19:48] ---
    What?
[19:49] ---
    When you run, you gain one by not losing.
[19:52] ---
    But if you move forward...
[19:54] ---
    You can win?
[19:56] ---
    Whether you win or not,
[19:57] ---
    there are two things you gain.
[20:00] ---
    Experience and pride.
[20:03] ---
    Not to mention trust!
[20:20] ---
    A shield?
[20:21] ---
    She blocked it.
[20:24] ---
    In that case...
[20:39] ---
    What just happened?
[20:41] ---
    What kind of mobile suit is that?
[20:43] ---
    GUND-ARM...
[20:47] ---
    Gundam.
[20:53] ---
    Wh-What... What the hell are you?!
[21:02] ---
    It's time.
[21:04] ---
    Mr. Jeturk.
[21:06] ---
    A last-minute intervention?
[21:08] ---
    No.
[21:09] ---
    Your son was defeated in a duel.
[21:12] ---
    What?
[21:14] ---
    Even if you killed President Delling now,
[21:16] ---
    Master Guel won't be Mistress Miorine's fiance.
[21:20] ---
    Who was the opponent? Grassley?
[21:22] ---
    Peil?
[21:24] ---
    No.
[21:26] ---
    It was...
[21:35] ---
    Excuse me...
[21:37] ---
    I-I won.
[21:40] ---
    So it seems.
[21:43] ---
    Suletta Mercury...
[21:48] ---
    Huh? What the...
[21:50] ---
    How did you...
[21:51] ---
