    Mobile Suit Gundam
    Rage on! Rage on! Rage on! Gundam!
[00:22] ---
    You must run forth!
[00:29] ---
    If you are still burning
    with furious rage...
[00:36] ---
    You must fight the towering foe!
    Fight! Fight! Fight!
[00:42] ---
    Bring to bear the rage of justice, Gundam!
[00:49] ---
    Mobile Suit Gundam! Gundam!
[00:56] ---
    Rise once more! Rise once more!
    Rise once more! Gundam!
[01:02] ---
    You must seize the power!
[01:09] ---
    Fly toward the galaxy, Gundam!
[01:16] ---
    Mobile Suit Gundam! Gundam!
[01:32] ---
    The Gaw formation from North
    America, with Captain Char as its leader...
[01:36] ---
    ...carried out a surprise attack against the
    Earth Federation Headquarters in Jaburo.
[01:45] ---
    However, with the Gundam
    and the efforts of many soldiers,
[01:49] ---
    the Federation Forces fought back
    hard and the enemy was forced to retreat.
[01:52] ---
    But will the infamous Char
    continue withdrawing his forces?
[01:56] ---
    A Wish of War Orphans
[02:01] ---
    A Wish of War Orphans.
[02:25] ---
    Point B 3! Thus far, we have
    nothing out of the ordinary to report.
[02:29] ---
    Zeons are staging periodic bombings.
[02:31] ---
    Roger!
[02:33] ---
    What the hell's the point in regular
    reports from a remote outpost like ours?
[02:36] ---
    Don't complain so much!
[02:38] ---
    Even they aren't doing their patrols
    just so they can collect their paychecks...
[02:42] ---
    What's wrong?
[03:18] ---
    Another periodic bombing, is it?
[03:20] ---
    Well, it's nothing to be concerned about.
    Now then...
[03:23] ---
    The White Base's crew organization
    will remain as it is now.
[03:27] ---
    You will join the 13th Autonomous
    Corps of the Tianem fleet.
[03:33] ---
    I will now announce each of your ranks.
[03:35] ---
    Lieutenant Bright Noa.
[03:37] ---
    Yes, sir!
[03:41] ---
    Ensign Mirai Yashima.
[03:42] ---
    Yes, sir.
[03:44] ---
    Petty Officer Sayla Mass.
[03:45] ---
    Yes, sir.
[03:46] ---
    Before we've had a chance to think
    about it, we've been made into soldiers.
[03:50] ---
    Chief Petty Officer Amuro Ray.
[03:52] ---
    Y-Yes, sir!
[03:53] ---
    Corporal Kai Shiden.
[03:55] ---
    Yes, sir.
[03:56] ---
    Corporal Hayato Kobayashi.
[03:57] ---
    Yes, sir!
[03:59] ---
    I haven't received anything like
    this since my grade school diploma.
[04:04] ---
    What good will this do?
[04:06] ---
    Private First Class Fraw Bow!
[04:09] ---
    Private Fraw Bow? Isn't she here?
[04:12] ---
    Nooo! We don't wanna!
[04:13] ---
    Come back here, you...!
[04:17] ---
    Oh no. Please excuse me.
[04:18] ---
    No way! I'm not going anywhere!
[04:21] ---
    Me neither!
[04:22] ---
    No way are we leaving!
[04:26] ---
    What was that all about?
[04:28] ---
    Well, the children absolutely refuse
    to go to the childcare center, and...
[04:32] ---
    How self-centered.
[04:34] ---
    I have some expertise in this area.
[04:36] ---
    I'll convince those children.
[04:38] ---
    Ah, you should come with me.
[04:40] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[04:41] ---
    Hurry up and receive your appointment.
[04:43] ---
    Uh, yes sir.
[04:46] ---
    Ryu Jose has been promoted two ranks
    for honorable death in the line of duty.
[04:51] ---
    He's been appointed lieutenant junior grade.
[04:53] ---
    Other White Base casualties have
    also been promoted two ranks. That is all.
[04:57] ---
    Promoted two ranks?
[04:59] ---
    Promoted two ranks...?!
[05:14] ---
    Promoted two ranks...?
[05:17] ---
    Is... Is that all they get?
[05:20] ---
    Huh?
[05:22] ---
    They get promoted two ranks, and that's it?
[05:25] ---
    That's the end of the matter?
[05:27] ---
    What? What exactly are you saying?
[05:29] ---
    You do nothing for us while we're fighting,
[05:32] ---
    and afterwards you hand out ranks.
[05:34] ---
    Couldn't you at least say "thank
    you" to Ryu and the others?!
[05:38] ---
    Amuro. That's enough.
[05:39] ---
    How dare you!
[05:43] ---
    Who said you could dodge my blow?!
[05:45] ---
    Do that again and I'll throw you in a cell!
[05:47] ---
    What?
[05:48] ---
    There!
[05:49] ---
    Well, you do say things that you shouldn't.
[05:51] ---
    You need sense smacked into you
    once in a while.
[05:54] ---
    Yeah. I get the message. Let's just drop it.
[05:57] ---
    So what about Kikka and the other kids?
[06:00] ---
    The childcare officer told them
    the facility has lots of fun playgrounds.
[06:03] ---
    So they were convinced and went with her.
[06:07] ---
    But I wonder...
[06:09] ---
    Do you think those kids will
    really be happy if they stay here?
[06:12] ---
    Really be happy?
[06:14] ---
    I think they'll be fine wherever
    they end up.
[06:17] ---
    Do you really believe that?
[06:18] ---
    We've got no choice.
    They've gotta stay behind.
[06:22] ---
    But...!
[06:23] ---
    Young children shouldn't have to see
    people killing each other.
[06:30] ---
    Maybe you're right.
[06:59] ---
    The preparations are done, Captain Char.
[07:02] ---
    Okay! Let's go!
[07:15] ---
    Juice! Juice! Delicious juice!
[07:22] ---
    I want some soft-serve ice cream!
[07:23] ---
    You guys are so innocent and carefree.
[07:25] ---
    Huh?
[07:27] ---
    What's wrong with kids being carefree?
[07:30] ---
    But all that does is make adults happy.
[07:32] ---
    You are one cynical kid!
[07:35] ---
    If you stick around here long
    enough, you'll all end up like this.
[07:43] ---
    There's a war going on right now!
[07:45] ---
    Nothing to do with me.
[07:46] ---
    All I do is sit around waiting until
    my mother and father come and see me.
[07:54] ---
    Mommy...?
[07:56] ---
    Daddy?
[07:57] ---
    Aw, cut it out!
[07:59] ---
    But...
[08:01] ---
    Why you...!
[08:02] ---
    Ow!
[08:04] ---
    Fraw Bow! I wanna go home!
[08:07] ---
    I wanna go back to the ship!
[08:10] ---
    Look what you did!
[08:11] ---
    This is all your fault!
[08:13] ---
    M-Me too...
[08:15] ---
    I wanna go home. I wanna go...!
[08:20] ---
    What's wrong, kids?
[08:22] ---
    She's coming!
[08:24] ---
    Let's run away!
[08:24] ---
    Right! Now, Kikka. Let's run!
[08:27] ---
    Okay...
[08:28] ---
    Hey! Come back here!
    Katz! Letz! Kikka!
[08:32] ---
    Where are you going?!
[08:41] ---
    Come back, you kids! Can't you hear me?
[08:45] ---
    Please answer me, Kikka dear!
[08:48] ---
    Katz! Letz!
[08:52] ---
    What am I going to do?
[09:10] ---
    Somebody's coming.
[09:12] ---
    Wait. They're kids.
[09:16] ---
    Come on, Kikka.
[09:18] ---
    Okay!
[09:19] ---
    It's slippery, Katz. So be careful.
[09:33] ---
    Katz!
[09:35] ---
    Yeah.
[09:38] ---
    They sure gave me a scare.
[09:45] ---
    Captain Char?
[09:46] ---
    The Federation's come a long way.
[09:49] ---
    This is probably just a small sample
    of what they have.
[09:53] ---
    Are we doing it now? Captain?
[09:55] ---
    Yes, of course...
    Ramsey. Have your unit set them here.
[09:58] ---
    Sir.
[09:59] ---
    Akahana, our teams will head
    to the Trojan Horse's dock.
[10:02] ---
    Right!
[10:03] ---
    Ha! This'll be a piece of cake.
[10:07] ---
    Keep running! If they catch us,
    they'll take us back there!
[10:13] ---
    I can't run anymore!
[10:14] ---
    Kikka! Pull yourself together!
[10:15] ---
    I wanna rest!
[10:17] ---
    Well, if we have to...
[10:17] ---
    Hey. This door opens.
    Well, if we have to...
[10:18] ---
    Hey. This door opens.
[10:19] ---
    It does? Okay, Kikka.
    We'll rest here for a little bit.
[10:23] ---
    Then we'll go back to the ship.
[10:29] ---
    How much longer?
[10:30] ---
    Five more minutes, sir!
[10:33] ---
    Wait! Hide!
[10:34] ---
    Sir?
[10:36] ---
    Stinky.
[10:36] ---
    Is there nobody here?
[10:37] ---
    Hey! Look, Gundams!
[10:39] ---
    Oh, wow!
[10:40] ---
    There are so many!
[10:45] ---
    But it's kinda different than Gundam.
[10:47] ---
    Come to think of it, they're a lot different.
[10:53] ---
    Oh! Something's near its feet!
[10:54] ---
    Huh? Near its feet?
[10:55] ---
    I saw something move.
[10:57] ---
    What?!
[11:00] ---
    You imagined it. I don't see anything.
[11:02] ---
    But it's true!
[11:03] ---
    Something really moved!
[11:06] ---
    It could've been a person!
[11:08] ---
    What?! If it's a person, we're in trouble.
[11:10] ---
    L-Let's hide.
[11:11] ---
    Okay!
[11:16] ---
    Run away! Run away!
    The other way!
[11:20] ---
    I know how you feel
    but it'll make it tougher, Fraw.
[11:24] ---
    But I'd just like to see them once more.
[11:26] ---
    Even if I just watch them quietly, from afar.
[11:28] ---
    Huh?
[11:29] ---
    That's the childcare officer!
[11:31] ---
    Oh, I'm glad I found you now!
[11:33] ---
    Kikka, Katz and Letz have all run away!
[11:35] ---
    What?!
[11:35] ---
    Don't think ill of us, kids.
[11:38] ---
    I've set them to detonate in 30 minutes.
[11:40] ---
    Okay. Let's go!
[12:04] ---
    Bombs!
[12:05] ---
    They've set b-b-bombs!
[12:31] ---
    Sorry for the wait.
    We're finally authorized.
[12:33] ---
    That's terrific! Now we can go on the tour!
[12:36] ---
    You're coming too, right, Kai?
    The Gundam factory?
[12:39] ---
    Ah, sure. I'll go to take my mind off things.
[12:42] ---
    Lieutenant Bright. Come to
    the operations conference room at once.
[12:46] ---
    Coming, sir.
[12:48] ---
    Well, that's the military for you.
    You guys go ahead without me.
[12:51] ---
    Okay.
[12:52] ---
    You'll enjoy it more without your superior.
[12:56] ---
    I did it! Katz, hurry!
[12:58] ---
    You saved me!
[12:59] ---
    W-We gotta get rid of those Zeon bombs!
[13:01] ---
    Right!
    W-We gotta get rid of those Zeon bombs!
[13:06] ---
    Katz! Kikka! You two look under here!
[13:08] ---
    Okay!
    Katz! Kikka! You two look under here!
[13:09] ---
    Um... Let's see...
[13:12] ---
    Well? Any bombs??
[13:13] ---
    Hey! Did you find any?!
[13:15] ---
    Um...
[13:16] ---
    No good! At this rate,
    we'll blow up along with them!
[13:19] ---
    I don't wanna blow up! What should we do?
[13:22] ---
    I found one!
[13:22] ---
    What?!
[13:23] ---
    This one's a bomb, right?!
[13:25] ---
    Th-There's one over here, too!
[13:27] ---
    Here we go...
[13:54] ---
    Come on, Kikka, hurry up!
[14:05] ---
    Come on! Start, engine! Start!
[14:08] ---
    H-Hurry up!
[14:10] ---
    I'm... I'm trying, but
    this thing won't start!
[14:12] ---
    But are you sure you know
    how to make it move?
[14:15] ---
    I'll manage!
[14:22] ---
    I did it! It started!
    Okay, next I need to do...
[14:26] ---
    This!
[14:31] ---
    No. That wasn't it.
[14:43] ---
    Those voices were Katz and Letz!
[14:45] ---
    What are they doing in a place like this?
[14:47] ---
    We gotta go after them!
[14:48] ---
    Right!
[14:53] ---
    Stop the car, Katz! Stop the car!
[14:55] ---
    Big brother Amuro!
[14:56] ---
    What are you doing here?!
[14:58] ---
    Zeon soldiers set up some bombs!
    We're throwing them away!
[15:01] ---
    Bombs?
[15:03] ---
    Th-This is... Amuro, looks like it's true.
    These are time bombs.
[15:08] ---
    Where did you find them?!
[15:09] ---
    Inside the Gundam factory!
[15:12] ---
    All right, Letz. Get in the other
    car and leave the rest to me. Hurry!
[15:15] ---
    Okay!
[15:17] ---
    Mr. Kai! Help the kids into the car!
[15:19] ---
    Just leave it to me.
    Okay, Letz! You go first!
[15:22] ---
    C'mon!
[15:23] ---
    Okay. C'mon!
[15:24] ---
    Okay, don't be scared. On three...
[15:27] ---
    See, I told you it was fine!
[15:28] ---
    Okay! You're next, Kikka. There!
[15:32] ---
    Now it's your turn! Here we go!
[15:35] ---
    You all did good. All yours, Amuro!
[15:38] ---
    Thank you, Mr. Kai!
[16:11] ---
    We did it! Yay! We did it!
[16:16] ---
    The White Base is in danger!
[16:17] ---
    Whoever set these bombs
    will likely attack the White Base too!
[16:29] ---
    Sounds like Ramsey's team went all out.
[16:31] ---
    Ivanov. Can you hear me?
[16:33] ---
    Yes, Captain Char.
[16:35] ---
    Our mission has failed.
[16:36] ---
    Distract the enemy with the Acguys.
[16:38] ---
    Understood, sir.
[16:39] ---
    Let's go!
[17:04] ---
    It's starting to look rough up ahead.
[17:05] ---
    The enemy's attacking with mobile suits.
[17:11] ---
    That's...!
[17:13] ---
    Katz!? Kikka!
[17:15] ---
    Letz!
[17:17] ---
    Katz! Letz! Please answer me!
[17:19] ---
    Kikka! Where are you?!
[17:20] ---
    Kikka!
[17:20] ---
    Katz! Letz! Kikka!
[17:26] ---
    Artesia?
[17:33] ---
    I thought so.
[17:51] ---
    I... I never would have thought
    you'd join the Zeon Forces.
[17:55] ---
    Not my gentle brother Casval!
[17:57] ---
    Will you leave the military for me, Artesia?
[18:01] ---
    Sayla! Are you there?
    Please answer me...
[18:05] ---
    Got that?
[18:06] ---
    Casval!
[18:10] ---
    Sayla!
[18:12] ---
    Where are you?! Kikka!
[18:15] ---
    Sayla?
[18:15] ---
    Oh! Sayla?
[18:17] ---
    I heard gunfire... Was there a Zeon soldier?
[18:20] ---
    Was there a...?
[18:21] ---
    There was a Zeon officer here on this rock.
[18:24] ---
    You didn't notice?!
[18:26] ---
    I'm sorry...
[18:28] ---
    Maybe we shouldn't go that way, then.
[18:51] ---
    Captain Char...
[18:52] ---
    Ignore them. We're all leaving right now.
[18:54] ---
    Our mission is a failure,
    so we're falling back. Got that?!
[18:57] ---
    Sir!
[19:08] ---
    Here I go!
[19:25] ---
    I won't let you get away!
    Four or five mobile suits... that's nothing!
[19:33] ---
    Captain Char...!
[19:37] ---
    Captain! Ivanov's Acguy
    has been destroyed!
[19:40] ---
    Don't stop!
[19:42] ---
    If you stop, you won't survive!
    Keep moving!
[19:54] ---
    Char!
[20:05] ---
    I'll get you!
[20:06] ---
    He's still coming?!
[20:26] ---
    They may only be Acguys, but
    he took out four of them all at once.
[20:30] ---
    He's improved his skill as a fighter.
[20:34] ---
    An underground water vein.
[20:47] ---
    I can't see ahead.
[20:59] ---
    Knowing Char, he must have
    used that opportunity to escape.
[21:18] ---
    I understand how you feel.
[21:20] ---
    However, they're guaranteed to be safe here.
[21:23] ---
    Besides, the children are the future
    of the Federation Forces...
[21:26] ---
    ...so they're brought up with great care.
[21:29] ---
    Even after what happened today?
[21:31] ---
    Also, when I consider their
    feelings, I'm not sure these kids...
[21:35] ---
    And you called them the future
    of the Federation Forces, but...
[21:38] ---
    ...they might see a world without Zeon or
    Federation Forces within their lifetime.
[21:44] ---
    Can't you consider that possibility?
[21:49] ---
    Our little rascals here
    aren't your average children.
[21:53] ---
    In all the time they've been with us,
    they've experienced explosions and more...
[21:55] ---
    ...and they've made it through those
    battles, fighting alongside us.
[21:58] ---
    They've seen some terrible things
    even an adult like you couldn't imagine.
[22:03] ---
    And they never turned away their
    eyes. You understand?
[22:06] ---
    They don't wanna leave us. Isn't that right?
[22:08] ---
    Yeah!
[22:09] ---
    But... but they...
[22:18] ---
    Yes. I suppose you may be right.
[22:21] ---
    I'll make all the necessary arrangements.
[22:24] ---
    Then... then... It's so wonderful!
[22:26] ---
    Yeah!
[22:32] ---
    This is great!
[22:33] ---
    Now we can bicker again like always!
[22:36] ---
    That's right!
    Now we can bicker again like always!
[22:36] ---
    That's right!
[22:38] ---
    Meanwhile, due to Char's guerilla
    attack, the Earth Federation Forces...
[22:44] ---
    ...have decided to speed up
    their military operations in outer space.
[22:47] ---
    The admirals have figured out...
[22:49] ---
    ...that the Zeons are overestimating
    the real potential of the White Base,
[22:53] ---
    and that the White Base
    would be an ideal decoy.
[23:02] ---
    Are you saying that
    the 13th Autonomous Corps...
[23:05] ---
    ...will specialize in decoy operations? Sir?
[23:20] ---
    The White Base takes off into space...
[23:22] ---
    ...where an immense battlefield awaits.
[23:25] ---
    Char pursues them relentlessly,
[23:27] ---
    which finally leads to fleet combat.
[23:29] ---
    Will the approaching gigantic
    spacecraft crush the mobile suit to pieces?
[23:33] ---

    Will you be able to survive?
[23:50] ---
    Amuro, do not look back.
[23:55] ---
    The star shining far off in space...
[24:00] ---
    Amuro, it's your homeland
    where you were born.
[24:10] ---
    Do you remember the days
    of your childhood?
[24:15] ---
    The morning when you woke up in warmth?
[24:20] ---
    Amuro, do not look back, Amuro...
[24:25] ---
    A man must hide his tears, hide his tears.
[24:30] ---
    Only look to tomorrow,
    to tomorrow... Forever...
