[00:09] ---
    Once upon a time, a giant and a dragon
    fell from the skies.

[00:14] ---
    After those two entities fought and died,
    an incurable illness went rampant.

[00:19] ---
    Those who were affected
    either turned into salt and died,

[00:22] ---
    or became violent and turned
    into monsters attacking fellow humans.

[00:28] ---
    Humanity was on the brink of extinction.
[00:31] ---
    And that was when people had an idea.
[00:34] ---
    "We can separate the human soul
    from its body."

[00:37] ---
    "And when we are cured of the illness,"
[00:39] ---
    "we can transfer the soul into a vessel
    created to look just like humans!"

[00:44] ---
    Humans named this concept
    "Project Gestalt."

[00:49] ---
    The original bodies
    for Devola and Popola

[00:51] ---
    were twin androids created
    as observers of Project Gestalt.

[00:58] ---
    The two worked diligently for the day humanity's
    souls would be returned to their vessels, but...

[01:06] ---
    At some point, Devola and Popola became unable
    to control the vessels created to save humanity.

[01:15] ---
    As a result, Devola and Popola
    could not fulfill their duties.

[01:20] ---
    A catastrophic failure.
[01:22] ---
    And of course,
    Project Gestalt collapsed as well.

[01:27] ---
    That is how humanity went extinct.
[03:17] ---
    Once again...
[03:19] ---
    we couldn't protect them.
[03:22] ---
    Yeah.
[03:24] ---
    But... They all...
[03:27] ---
    - They all—
    - Popola.
[03:30] ---
    Don't say it.
[03:34] ---
    This feeling... How long will it last?
[03:38] ---
    That's...
[03:40] ---
    Hello!
[03:42] ---
    This is Tower System Services!
[03:45] ---
    All sub-units are now unlocked.
[03:49] ---
    Starting today, patrons with passcodes
    will be welcomed inside the Tower.

[03:59] ---
    And in appreciation of your continued patronage,
    we have prepared a special prize.

[04:08] ---
    We eagerly look forward to your next visit!
[04:18] ---
    Query. Why was an entrance
    for this Tower created?

[04:23] ---
    Confirmed that resource transport
    is done through the sky.

[04:28] ---
    It is unnatural for an entrance
    from the outside to be set up.

[04:32] ---
    Prediction. A trap.
[04:34] ---
    Trap or not, I don't care.
[04:37] ---
    I will simply kill them all.
[04:40] ---
    Starting today, patrons with passcodes
    will be welcomed inside the Tower.

[04:51] ---
    It doesn't open with the passcodes?
[04:54] ---
    Proposal. Retreat.
[04:56] ---
    Shut up!
[04:57] ---
    Hacking in!
[05:05] ---
    Was I able to hack in?
[05:14] ---
    A doorknob?
[05:16] ---
    Is it a trap?
[05:21] ---
    This is...
[05:51] ---
    This place...
[06:01] ---
    My copied data?
[06:04] ---
    I'm not a copy.
[06:05] ---
    I was you at some point.
[06:09] ---
    Me? "At some point"?
[06:12] ---
    Let's hurry. We don't have time.
[06:20] ---
    Hey!
[06:21] ---
    What the hell are you?
[06:22] ---
    I told you.
[06:24] ---
    I was you at some point.
[06:27] ---
    And he was you at some point, too.
    And me at some point.
[06:34] ---
    At some point...
[06:38] ---
    Let's go.
[06:50] ---
    That too...
[06:51] ---
    Right. He was me at some point.
[06:54] ---
    Hold on!
[06:55] ---
    Some point? When exactly was he me?
[06:59] ---
    The end. That's you
    who met your final moment.
[07:04] ---
    I can tell that just by looking!
[07:06] ---
    What I want to say is...
[07:08] ---
    You haven't seen it yet.
[07:11] ---
    You haven't seen the truth.
[07:15] ---
    Let's go.
[07:24] ---
    I collected the three passcodes.
[07:27] ---
    Yeah.
[07:29] ---
    Why can't I proceed?
[07:32] ---
    But you are proceeding.
[07:34] ---
    I'm asking you
    why I can't go into the Tower!
[07:37] ---
    If you proceed further, it will open.
[07:41] ---
    The entrance to the Tower, that is.
[07:42] ---
    How long are we going
    to keep doing this?
[07:47] ---
    Until the truth is seen.
[08:01] ---
    Hey. What do you mean by the truth?
[08:04] ---
    The truth is the truth.
[08:06] ---
    I'm sure you've picked up on it
    already, right?
[08:09] ---
    Because I picked up on it.
[08:12] ---
    - What are you—
    - Who got you?
[08:15] ---
    An enemy.
[08:16] ---
    Not an enemy.
[08:19] ---
    This is...
[08:23] ---
    This...
[08:25] ---
    I...
[08:31] ---
    2B.
[08:40] ---
    They're all my selves
    who were killed by 2B.
[08:46] ---
    Isn't that right?
[08:51] ---
    You finally see it.
[08:53] ---
    The truth.
[09:03] ---
    2B's true unit designation
    is YoRHa No. 2 Type E.
[09:10] ---
    She's an Executioner model
    built to destroy deserters and moles.
[09:16] ---
    She gets close to traitors
    through camouflage and kills them.
[09:21] ---
    2B has... Over and over...
[09:25] ---
    That's right. You're an excellent unit.
[09:28] ---
    You always end up
    knowing too much information.
[09:30] ---
    That's why you were executed.
[09:32] ---
    Always executed?
[09:35] ---
    That means I'm a flawed unit!
[09:39] ---
    But why did Command keep producing me...
    Producing the 9S model?
[09:46] ---
    That, I don't know.
[09:50] ---
    But for 9S to continually
    be born and killed...
[09:55] ---
    That fact in itself is built
    into the foundation of Project YoRHa.
[09:59] ---
    You are not a flawed unit.
[10:01] ---
    But what I've been seeing
    are all my selves who were failures!
[10:06] ---
    But for 2B, it was following through
    with the mission. A success.
[10:12] ---
    Don't make it sound like
    2B gleefully kills me!
[10:16] ---
    You were not the only one who was killed.
[10:19] ---
    All of us were.
[10:21] ---
    But we started over and over.
[10:25] ---
    You're the result of all that.
[10:28] ---
    But 2B died!
[10:30] ---
    That's right. That's the important part.
[10:34] ---
    Your selves who has led up to this point,
    in other words us... We were killed by 2B.
[10:40] ---
    But you as you are now is different.
[10:42] ---
    You survived, and 2B was lost
    in your place. Forever.
[10:48] ---
    A new finale
    that has never happened before.
[10:52] ---
    A new ending.
[10:55] ---
    The success that 2B truly wanted to fulfill
    was perhaps for you to be standing here right now.
[11:04] ---
    Such an ending
    wasn't something that I needed.
[11:18] ---
    Let's hurry.
    We don't have time here, either.
[11:41] ---
    I see it.
[11:50] ---
    Now, this is as far as I go.
[11:54] ---
    I am... We are within you.
[11:58] ---
    And no matter what the ending,
    our feelings for 2B won't change.
[12:03] ---
    That's right. You also were...
[12:08] ---
    Please move forward, 9S.
[12:12] ---
    Move forward?
    2B isn't here anymore.
[12:23] ---
    Why is it me? Why is it just me?
[12:33] ---
    Report. Loss of 9S's self-consciousness data
    within memory sectors

[12:40] ---
    has triggered the release of the seal.
[12:44] ---
    Alert.
[12:45] ---
    Hostile machine lifeforms approaching.
[12:49] ---
    And the door finally opened, too.
[12:57] ---
    Alert. Combat is dangerous
    under current conditions.

[13:01] ---
    Proposal. Immediate retreat
    into the Tower.

[13:04] ---
    Shut up!
[13:05] ---
    I will kill machine lifeforms!
[13:13] ---
    Damn it!
[13:22] ---
    You're...
[13:27] ---
    9S.
[13:29] ---
    We thought you'd come here.
[13:39] ---
    You're still under treatment!
    Just sit tight right there!
[13:43] ---
    Leave this part to us.
[13:47] ---
    We gotta show ya that we can
    put up somewhat of a fight!
[13:51] ---
    Right!
[14:00] ---
    Sheesh.
[14:02] ---
    You really are a handful, 9S.
[14:05] ---
    Please let us finish your treatment
    this time.
[14:13] ---
    This is terrible.
    Your motor cortex is full of holes.
[14:17] ---
    It must have been difficult
    to even walk like this.
[14:20] ---
    9S, just sit there and listen, okay?
[14:23] ---
    The Resistance Camp that we were at
    has been annihilated.
[14:29] ---
    How? What about Ms. Lily and Ms. Jackass?
[14:33] ---
    A virus infection spread rapidly.
[14:36] ---
    Leader and everyone
    wanted to stop the infection from spreading.
[14:40] ---
    But when they sheltered the children of
    Pascal's village, there was a unit that was infected.
[14:46] ---
    The virus had a very rapid pace of infection.
[14:48] ---
    By the time we realized, it was already...
[14:51] ---
    We were the only ones allowed to escape.
[14:54] ---
    Leader let us go so we can
    treat other androids.
[14:58] ---
    Okay, you should be all right now.
[15:02] ---
    Thank you.
[15:04] ---
    Ms. Lily, Ms. Jackass... Everyone...
[15:09] ---
    Everyone is dead.
[15:12] ---
    Alert.
[15:14] ---
    Multiple hostile machine lifeforms
    approaching.

[15:18] ---
    Proposal. Immediate retreat
    into the Tower.

[15:22] ---
    Looks like we won't be able
    to handle this anymore.
[15:25] ---
    Let's go.
[15:28] ---
    Ms. Devola! Ms. Popola!
[15:31] ---
    Report. Confirmed activation
    of a stealth trap.

[15:35] ---
    Are you all right?
[15:37] ---
    If you can stand up,
    we have to hurry and evacuate.
[15:43] ---
    Popola!
[15:46] ---
    We'll manage here somehow!
[15:48] ---
    Before the door closes! Hurry!
[15:51] ---
    I can open that again later!
    The two of you should hurry and escape!
[15:54] ---
    Enough!
[15:55] ---
    We...
[15:57] ---
    We have to atone
    for the sins we committed!
[16:01] ---
    Devola!
[16:08] ---
    We don't want you to regret anything!
[16:11] ---
    Devola!
[16:17] ---
    The original bodies
    for Devola and Popola

[16:19] ---
    were twin androids created
    as observers of Project Gestalt.

[16:41] ---
    Watch out!
[16:43] ---
    Are you all right?
[16:44] ---
    Sorry. I spaced out for a bit.
[16:48] ---
    Your bandage is coming undone.
[16:51] ---
    Do you want to change it soon?
    So that we can proceed safely.
[16:56] ---
    No.
[16:58] ---
    Let's keep moving for now.
[17:00] ---
    The rain will get to us
    if we don't move quickly.
[17:04] ---
    At some point, Devola and Popola became unable
    to control the vessels created to save humanity.

[17:13] ---
    As a result, Devola and Popola
    could not fulfill their duties.

[17:18] ---
    A catastrophic failure.
[17:20] ---
    And of course,
    Project Gestalt collapsed as well.

SIGN    "THAT IS HOW HUMANITY WENT EXTINCT."
[17:29] ---
    The nerve circuitry underneath
    has been damaged.
[17:33] ---
    That's why it's affecting
    your ambulatory control.
[17:36] ---
    Sorry.
[17:37] ---
    Don't apologize.
    It's not like this was your fault.
[17:42] ---
    I'm sorry. Any further treatment requires
    a facility with adequate equipment.
[17:47] ---
    Now, why are you apologizing, Popola?
[17:52] ---
    We both apologize while insisting
    the other's apology isn't necessary.
[18:03] ---
    Since then, only androids
    were left on Earth.

[18:08] ---
    The secret of humanity's extinction
    had been hidden.

[18:11] ---
    However, those who had the same shape
    as Devola and Popola, the great failures,

[18:15] ---
    became hated by all.
[18:20] ---
    If we can make it to the new camp,
    I can fix your leg as well, Devola.
[18:25] ---
    That'd be nice.
[18:27] ---
    But perhaps my other leg
    will suffer the same fate.
[18:31] ---
    It'll be fine. I'll protect you.
[18:35] ---
    But it's all right
    because this is a matter of course.
[18:39] ---
    A fellow Resistance slashed your leg!
[18:42] ---
    We were allies.
[18:44] ---
    Why didn't you get angry?
    How did you stay calm?
[18:49] ---
    Because you had lost yourself a bit.
    That's why I was able to stay calm.
[18:54] ---
    Because you were angry for me,
    so I was able to let it go.
[18:59] ---
    But that was...
[19:00] ---
    The maintenance failure was caused
    by a different unit of the same model.
[19:04] ---
    It wasn't us.
[19:10] ---
    But still, it's only natural
    for our twin models to be persecuted.
[19:18] ---
    I wonder how long this will continue?
[19:21] ---
    Well, that's...
[19:24] ---
    Until someday when we can atone
    for the sins we have committed.
[19:30] ---
    If so, that means
    it'll keep going for eternity.
[19:37] ---
    "But there's nothing we can do."
[19:40] ---
    All Devolas and Popolas
    think that way.

[19:44] ---
    That's because they were unable
    to protect the humans who created them.

[19:49] ---
    They must undergo a memory wipe
    with programming to generate

[19:53] ---
    constant feelings of guilt
    to prevent them going haywire.

[20:08] ---
    I'm glad it was the two of us.
[20:10] ---
    I don't think I could have
    endured this alone.
[20:13] ---
    We can endure this because we're together.
[20:18] ---
    Every Devola and Popola has been,
    "I'm sorry" this, "I'm sorry" that.

[20:23] ---
    They have lived
    currying favors the whole time.

[20:27] ---
    I'm sorry.
[20:29] ---
    I'm sorry.
[20:31] ---
    I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
[20:42] ---
    Devola.
[20:44] ---
    I'm sorry.
[20:51] ---
    Don't apologize, Popola.
[20:53] ---
    Don't apologize anymore.
[21:01] ---
    What's with the,
    "not regretting anything"?
[21:05] ---
    Such a feeling is something I've already...
[21:14] ---
    Hello! This is Tower System Services!
[21:18] ---
    Patrons with passcodes
    will be welcomed inside the Tower.

[21:31] ---
    153 to 042. I have a report about 9S.
    Sharing data now.

[21:38] ---
    Affirmative.
[21:41] ---
    9S's psychological state
    has deteriorated to a grave level.

[21:45] ---
    It is approaching a dangerous condition.
    We should handle that quickly.

[21:50] ---
    Agreed.
[21:51] ---
    However, treatment method is unknown.
[21:54] ---
    Proposal. Rest, combined with
    data checking and maintenance.

[21:59] ---
    Affirmative. Proceeding right away.
[22:03] ---
    Glory to mankind.
[22:07] ---
    ...to mankind.
