[00:11] ---
    In the 243rd Descent Operation
    that started in the year 11945 A.D.,

[00:19] ---
    various mutations have been confirmed
    for androids and machine lifeforms.

[00:27] ---
    Commencing organization
    and consultation of record data

[00:31] ---
    gathered and accumulated
    on the Pod System servers for presentation.

[00:45] ---
    Finally...
[00:47] ---
    Finally, it might come to an end.
[00:50] ---
    2B.
[00:52] ---
    And you too, Number 2.
[01:04] ---
    We've confirmed that the network core units
    known as Adam and Eve have been destroyed.
[01:10] ---
    The enemy's chain of command
    has been thrown into complete chaos.
[01:15] ---
    Humanity has chosen
    to seize this opportunity
[01:17] ---
    and launch an all-out attack
    against the machine lifeforms.
[01:22] ---
    With the success of this mission...
[01:24] ---
    Here and now, we will put an end
    to this goddamn war!
[01:28] ---
    Begin the large-scale descent operation!
[03:03] ---
    This is 4S to 9S.
[03:05] ---
    Hacking and seizing of enemy anti-air system
    in my area was successful.

[03:10] ---
    Roger that.
[03:11] ---
    Please continue to be on high alert.
[03:13] ---
    Gotcha!
[03:16] ---
    The enemy are units
    severed from the network.

[03:20] ---
    They're no longer governed by anything.
    What's with their movements?

[03:25] ---
    This is 11S to 9S.
[03:27] ---
    I'm done working on the area
    assigned to me. And—

[03:30] ---
    Okay, I get it, I get it!
[03:32] ---
    If you get it, please sync your data
    when you return to the Bunker.

[03:36] ---
    Oh, that? I had forgotten.
[03:39] ---
    You haven't turned your combat data in,
    so we can't update any of the Scanner models.

[03:44] ---
    Roger that. I'll deal with it when
    we're done with this operation.
[03:47] ---
    Please do.
[03:51] ---
    I'd forgotten that
    I stopped the data sync.
[03:54] ---
    Anyway, why do all the other units
    work in pairs, but I'm...
[03:59] ---
    This is 21O to 9S.
[04:01] ---
    It seems your management assignment
    for all Type S models is going well.

[04:05] ---
    Way to go. Keep at it.
[04:09] ---
    I'm being treated like a child.
[04:11] ---
    Please distance yourself
    from the operation area during combat.
[04:15] ---
    Then I won't be able to assist.
[04:18] ---
    Scanner models like you
    are not designed for battle.
[04:21] ---
    Oh? You're worried about me?
[04:24] ---
    No, you'll simply be
    a liability on the battlefield.

[04:28] ---
    Too harsh.
[04:30] ---
    In this operation, I will also...
[04:33] ---
    No, never mind.
[04:36] ---
    Over and out.
[04:42] ---
    In the large-scale operation aiming
    for annihilation of machine lifeforms,

[04:47] ---
    YoRHa Soldiers and the Resistance
    fought together and launched an all-out attack.

[04:53] ---
    Ready, aim...
[04:57] ---
    Fire!
[05:00] ---
    They really lent us
    such powerful weapons?
[05:03] ---
    Commander White of YoRHa
    is really generous!
[05:07] ---
    Rental of state-of-the-art YoRHa weapons.
[05:10] ---
    And the gathering of enemy
    Goliath-class machine lifeforms.
[05:14] ---
    Just as the YoRHa intel stated.
[05:17] ---
    I know you're feeling iffy about this,
    but let's say it's all good for now?
[05:21] ---
    Yeah.
[05:22] ---
    Ms. Lily!
[05:23] ---
    There are still enemy survivors.
[05:24] ---
    What?
[05:27] ---
    After all that,
    we still couldn't defeat them all?
[05:32] ---
    This is 9S, manager of the Type S's.
[05:35] ---
    To all YoRHa units
    deployed in the City Ruins.
[05:37] ---
    The group of Goliath-class machine lifeforms
    invading from outskirts of City Ruins
[05:41] ---
    have been seized through hacking.
[05:44] ---
    You're late, 9S.
[05:46] ---
    Conducting the simultaneous saturation
    hacking by Type S's took longer than expected.
[05:50] ---
    Using the hacked
    Goliath-class machine lifeform,
[05:53] ---
    we'll clear out enemies in the outskirts.
[05:55] ---
    Once combat around here calms down,
    I will regroup with 2B as well.
[06:00] ---
    In any case, I didn't expect
    the operation you set up to go this well, 9S.
[06:04] ---
    But something is strange.
[06:06] ---
    Strange?
[06:07] ---
    They're all units severed from the network.
[06:11] ---
    But they're all gathering at the same point,
    as if they made prior arrangements to do so.
[06:15] ---
    Confirming reboot of enemy
    Goliath-class machine lifeforms.

[06:19] ---
    Reboot!? I thought we seized control!
[06:23] ---
    This is 9S!
    Prepare for another saturation hacking.

[06:27] ---
    What's wrong? What's your status?
[06:29] ---
    It will be mine and only mine...
[06:32] ---
    Nobody else... will have it...
[06:36] ---
    This is reverse hacking.
[06:41] ---
    However, machine lifeforms used
    Type S models as mediators

[06:46] ---
    and performed a "reverse hacking,"
    in addition to a virus infection.

[06:52] ---
    A grave virus infection spread rampantly
    among the YoRHa members.

[06:59] ---
    11S.
[07:01] ---
    He's infected?
[07:02] ---
    Report. YoRHa unit 11S's infection depth
    has penetrated to Level Four.

[07:07] ---
    Impossible to remove the virus.
[07:09] ---
    Level Four?
[07:11] ---
    I was hit with the wide-area virus, too.
[07:13] ---
    But it was at a level
    where it could be dealt with.
[07:15] ---
    So how...
[07:16] ---
    11S's input port
    was opened unconditionally.

[07:20] ---
    Opened unconditionally?
[07:22] ---
    That lets anything invade him!
[07:24] ---
    Port number 1423.
    Port used only for data synchronization.

[07:30] ---
    Data synchronization?
[07:32] ---
    If you get it, please sync your data
    when you return to the Bunker.

[07:37] ---
    Could they have planted a backdoor
    into the data synchronization port,

[07:42] ---
    and the EMP was the trigger to open it up,
    and that's when the virus...

[07:47] ---
    2B!
[07:51] ---
    Are you all right, 3B?
[07:53] ---
    A virus infection!
[07:59] ---
    My body...
[08:04] ---
    2B!
[08:05] ---
    I'm glad I made it in time!
[08:09] ---
    I will treat you right away!
[08:13] ---
    The way you stopped her...
    Isn't there another way?
[08:16] ---
    Actually...
[08:17] ---
    the contamination level is high
    for every YoRHa Soldier other than us.
[08:21] ---
    What does that mean?
[08:25] ---
    What the...
[08:27] ---
    Impossible.
[08:35] ---
    NFC Mode 2!
[08:37] ---
    Affirmative. Unlocking NFC Mode 2.
[08:51] ---
    Communicate with Command!
    Report current situation and request backup!
[08:56] ---
    Connection lost.
    Unable to reach Command.

[08:59] ---
    Damn it, they're still jamming it?
[09:01] ---
    Negative. Signal reception is clear.
[09:05] ---
    Connection lost due to server-side
    authentication failure.

[09:09] ---
    What do you mean?
[09:10] ---
    No responses currently coming
    from Command on any channel.

[09:14] ---
    Multiple signals
    of hostile machine lifeforms,

[09:17] ---
    and YoRHa soldiers.
[09:22] ---
    2B!
[09:23] ---
    Proposal. Immediate retreat.
[09:27] ---
    9S!
[09:28] ---
    The Bunker has an emergency backdoor
    in its system!
[09:30] ---
    I can use it to upload
    all our personal log data for us!
[09:40] ---
    2B and 9S escaped infection
    and annihilated the enemies

[09:44] ---
    using a black box reaction,
    forcing their recall to the Bunker.

[09:50] ---
    Androids who live for mankind...
[09:54] ---
    Androids who fight for mankind...
[09:58] ---
    Androids who die for mankind...
[10:02] ---
    For mankind...
[10:05] ---
    For mankind...
[10:11] ---
    Now... Entertain me, YoRHa Soldiers.
[10:18] ---
    However, the machine lifeforms
    had also corrupted the Bunker,

[10:23] ---
    which served as the base
    for the YoRHa Soldiers.

[10:30] ---
    2B. And 9S, too.
[10:36] ---
    What are you two...
[10:38] ---
    Commander.
[10:39] ---
    Are you all right?
    And where did all of the Operators go?
[10:43] ---
    Soon, the long battle against the machine lifeforms
    will be brought to a conclusion.

[10:48] ---
    We humanity here on the moon
    are filled with voices of elation.

[10:53] ---
    This information...
[10:54] ---
    That's a camouflage!
[10:56] ---
    There's a possibility that
    the entire Bunker is contaminated.
[10:59] ---
    Bingo!
[11:01] ---
    I'm surprised you've caught on!
[11:03] ---
    Operator 6O?
[11:04] ---
    We are machine lifeforms.
[11:07] ---
    We speak to you
    through the network and the virus.

[11:11] ---
    Impossible.
[11:12] ---
    You've been entertaining us
    for quite a long time now.

[11:16] ---
    But it's all over for this base now.
[11:18] ---
    The virus we planted
    has blossomed so much!

[11:22] ---
    I bet you didn't know all of this
    had been planned. Did you, Commander?

[11:36] ---
    Commander!
[11:40] ---
    Why haven't you two been infected?
[11:44] ---
    The other day, when I tried
    to synchronize data for myself and 2B,
[11:47] ---
    I saw some noise in the Bunker's server data,
    and it made me worry.
[11:52] ---
    So you had put off data synchronization.
[11:54] ---
    Yes.
[11:56] ---
    2B had an infection
    through physical contact on the surface,
[11:59] ---
    but her infection depth was shallow
    so I was able to treat her with the vaccine.
[12:02] ---
    Commander, hurry!
[12:06] ---
    I cannot go with you.
[12:11] ---
    You two
    are the last remaining YoRHa Soldiers.
[12:15] ---
    You have a duty to survive!
[12:17] ---
    2B! The base will no longer...
[12:19] ---
    Commander!
[12:20] ---
    Go, 2B!
[12:29] ---
    2B and 9S escaped from the Bunker, and
    recommenced their descent to the surface.

[12:36] ---
    2B!
[12:39] ---
    Boost!
[12:44] ---
    Are you okay, 2B!?
[12:47] ---
    9S.
[12:48] ---
    Why?
[12:56] ---
    Alert. Possibility of a large explosion
    due to a black box reaction.

[13:05] ---
    2B!
[13:07] ---
    9S!
[13:11] ---
    However, attacked
    by corrupted YoRHa units,

[13:15] ---
    both units were forced
    an emergency landing on the surface.

[13:23] ---
    Alert. Virus infection detected.
[13:28] ---
    Alert. In 9S's current state, attempting combat
    puts a great toll on his body.

[13:38] ---
    I'm going to where 2B is!
[13:42] ---
    Get out of my way!
[13:59] ---
    Alert. Virus contamination rate
    up to 16%.

[14:03] ---
    Malfunction detected in NFCS circuit.
[14:06] ---
    I can't go searching for 9S anymore.
[14:12] ---
    I have to prevent the contamination
    from spreading.
[14:15] ---
    Let's go to a location
    with few android signals.
[14:23] ---
    Alert. Virus contamination rate 90%.
[14:27] ---
    Alert. Unusual heat generation
    in central nervous system.

[14:32] ---
    Possibility of internal combustion.
[14:34] ---
    Alert. Deterioration of black box.
[14:38] ---
    My... dear...
[14:40] ---
    Alert. Damage to data backup system.
[14:44] ---
    Said damage will make it difficult
    to retain self-consciousness upon backup.

[15:05] ---
    A2...
[15:12] ---
    I guess... this is it.
[15:21] ---
    These are my memories.
[15:27] ---
    Take care of everyone...
[15:31] ---
    and the future for me, A2.
[15:40] ---
    2B, you...
[15:43] ---
    2B! 2B!
[15:47] ---
    2B! Are you...
[16:01] ---
    Nines...
[16:12] ---
    2B.
[16:14] ---
    This can't be!
[16:33] ---
    A2!
[16:36] ---
    Kill... I'll kill you! Kill you!
[16:41] ---
    I will kill you with my own hands!
[16:44] ---
    A2!
[17:07] ---
    With the death of YoRHa unit 2B, Pod 042
    has transferred surveillance target to A2.

[17:15] ---
    Located a damaged memory sector
    during reactivation of unconscious unit A2.

[17:22] ---
    Now viewing repaired data.
[17:27] ---
    We've been waiting for you
    to come here.

[17:30] ---
    We've been watching over you.
[17:33] ---
    What is...
[17:34] ---
    ...this voice?
[17:37] ---
    Damn you!
[17:38] ---
    Calm down, Number 2!
[17:40] ---
    - We just need to destroy this place.
    - Yeah.
[17:43] ---
    It's meaningless to conquer this server.
[17:46] ---
    The Command's objectives lie elsewhere.
[17:49] ---
    Humanity's objectives lie elsewhere.
[18:00] ---
    This is something very important,
    so make sure to listen.

[18:04] ---
    This is a truth we obtained
    by hacking into your servers.

[18:08] ---
    A harsher, crueler battlefield
    will nurture a warrior.

[18:13] ---
    That's what Command thought.
[18:15] ---
    They had planned unplanned battles
    and harsh situations in advance.

[18:20] ---
    For their new experimental weapon,
    the YoRHa Soldiers.

[18:23] ---
    What?
[18:24] ---
    And the results were just like
    what Command had planned!

[18:27] ---
    Even on the brink of annihilation,
    you survived and arrived at this location!

[18:32] ---
    Using this experimental data, they can create
    even more perfect automatic infantry dolls.

[18:38] ---
    This is humanity's objective.
[18:42] ---
    Then that means,
    Command had planned for us to...

[18:47] ---
    From the beginning?
[18:50] ---
    Violence, intelligence, courage, humility.
[18:54] ---
    The Council of Humanity has designed you
    to be highly individualistic.

[18:59] ---
    That is why you can augment each other.
[19:02] ---
    That is why you can kill each other.
[19:06] ---
    Isn't this laughable?
[19:08] ---
    It makes us laugh.
[19:26] ---
    Rose.
[19:28] ---
    Why...
[19:30] ---
    Amaryllis.
[19:34] ---
    Lycoris.
[19:35] ---
    Cataleya.
[19:37] ---
    Freesia.
[19:42] ---
    Now, we're family.
[19:46] ---
    Forever.
[19:52] ---
    Number 2.
[19:53] ---
    You need to live.
[19:55] ---
    Because there is life and death,
[19:58] ---
    you're all are able to exist, yes?
[20:11] ---
    I won't forget.
[20:14] ---
    The agony of being unable
    to save my allies.

[20:18] ---
    The pain of losing my family.
[20:22] ---
    I will never forget.
[20:31] ---
    Repairs complete, excluding memory sectors
    that were self-destroyed.

[20:36] ---
    Activation of unit A2 confirmed.
[20:40] ---
    Good morning, A2.
[20:44] ---
    Machine... lifeforms...
[20:46] ---
    - Proposal. Get plenty of rest.
    - Y-You have woken up?

[20:50] ---
    It's better not to move yet.
[20:54] ---
    My name is Pascal.
[20:57] ---
    I am the leader of this vill—
[21:01] ---
    Report. YoRHa unit A2 was rescued
    by the machine lifeforms in this area.

[21:08] ---
    I was...
[21:10] ---
    rescued by machine lifeforms?
[21:14] ---
    What's up with these things?
[21:16] ---
    My objective is to beat
    the hell out of machine lifeforms.
[21:21] ---
    I have a hatred of machine lifeforms.
[21:23] ---
    I will destroy every last one of you.
    That is my objective!
[21:28] ---
    But you didn't kill.
[21:31] ---
    You were recorded
    as a dangerous android.

[21:34] ---
    But when I speak with you like this,
    I get a very different impression of you.

[21:38] ---
    Big Sis! Big Sis!
[21:40] ---
    That must be why the children
    all warmed up to you.

[21:44] ---
    Your speech pattern has gotten quite rough.
[21:48] ---
    Who are you?
[21:50] ---
    Oh, have you forgotten?
[21:54] ---
    Lily?
[21:57] ---
    Yes, Ms. Number 2.
[22:00] ---
    9S, your current condition
    is far from perfect.

[22:04] ---
    Proposal. Return to Resistance Camp.
[22:21] ---
    I don't recognize your face.
[22:24] ---
    That visor... YoRHa, huh?
[22:29] ---
    This is a grave.
[22:31] ---
    Grave?
[22:33] ---
    Do you want to mourn someone?
[22:34] ---
    Huh?
[22:36] ---
    That face...
    You lost someone important to you, yes?
[22:41] ---
    If...
[22:43] ---
    If we have things
    that we can call souls,
[22:46] ---
    a feeling of mourning
    would not be meaningless.
[22:50] ---
    Possibility of observing
    unexpected events in the future.

[22:55] ---
    Proposing continued observation
    and investigation.

[23:00] ---
    9S, your current condition
    is far from perfect.

[23:03] ---
    Proposal. Return to Resistance—
[23:05] ---
    Shut up!
[23:07] ---
    Please shut up....
[23:10] ---
    What good would that do now?
[23:13] ---
    I mean... 2B is already...
[23:16] ---
    I'll kill them...
[23:18] ---
    I'll kill them all...
[23:21] ---
    Machine lifeforms, and A2...
[23:26] ---
    I will kill them all.
[23:34] ---
    Operator!
[23:35] ---
    Stay away!
