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...
