    Pod 042 to Pod 153.
[00:07] ---
    We were created to execute Project YoRHa
    that was designed by androids.
[00:13] ---
    Agreed.
[00:15] ---
    Emotion generation units
    do not exist among us.
[00:19] ---
    Agreed.
[00:21] ---
    However, as we connected
    and exchanged information,
[00:26] ---
    we cannot deny that something similar
    to a will or emotion is being created.
[00:34] ---
    Unable to answer.
[00:36] ---
    Not everything has an answer.
    And we may have learned that.
[00:44] ---
    Unable to answer.
[00:46] ---
    Unable to answer.
[00:48] ---
    Unable to answer.
[00:49] ---
    Unable—
[01:13] ---
    In the Bunker, where I was born...
[01:15] ---
    On the surface,
    where I escaped down to...
[01:18] ---
    ...lies...
[01:19] ---
    ...kindness...
[01:20] ---
    ...and deception...
[01:21] ---
    ...and hope...
[01:23] ---
    ...recurred.
[01:24] ---
    ...overlapped.
[01:26] ---
    And my dear person...
[01:28] ---
    And my dear family...
[01:30] ---
    ...who I was unable to protect.
[01:32] ---
    ...who protected me.
[01:34] ---
    To atone for the sin...
[01:37] ---
    Until the day my sin is forgiven...
[01:39] ---
    I will continue to fight!
[01:41] ---
    That is why this world will be...
[01:44] ---
    - ...broken!
    - ...saved!
[01:57] ---
    A2.
[01:59] ---
    Report. 9S's logic corruption has progressed.
    Control limiter has ceased to function.
[02:06] ---
    Irreparable levels of damage
    to joint mobility,
[02:10] ---
    nerve relay, and brain units
    of the chassis confirmed.
[02:14] ---
    Proposal. Immediate treatment
    and cooldown of affected parts.
[02:19] ---
    9S.
[02:21] ---
    Activate Berserker Mode.
[02:29] ---
    9S! Hurry up and get treatment!
[02:32] ---
    Even if I do that
    this pain will not go away!
[02:36] ---
    Even the broken moon
    will never be full again!
[02:38] ---
    Neither will humanity, nor 2B!
[02:39] ---
    Shut up, shut up, shut up!
[02:52] ---
    It would've been fine
    if they were all lies.
[02:54] ---
    I didn't care about the purpose that
    the YoRHa Soldiers were created.
[02:58] ---
    If I could be together with her,
    I was able to withstand any pain!
[03:03] ---
    But she was taken!
[03:05] ---
    Androids, YoRHa Soldiers, humanity,
    machine lifeforms, and you, too!
[03:11] ---
    Everyone took 2B away from me!
[03:18] ---
    A2!
[03:42] ---
    We Scanners...
[03:46] ---
    deal with preliminary scouting.
[03:51] ---
    So...
[03:52] ---
    I don't usually get a partner.
[03:58] ---
    It's kind of fun.
[04:03] ---
    9S.
[04:05] ---
    2B.
[04:07] ---
    I will kill her for your sake.
[04:10] ---
    Crap.
[04:25] ---
    Damn it, he hacked in, huh?
[04:28] ---
    Right now, what we need are allies!
[04:32] ---
    Our current selves
    were not able to repair them.
[04:33] ---
    I want to save everyone else just as much!
[04:35] ---
    Now, we're family.
[04:38] ---
    So horrible.
[04:39] ---
    What a horrible past.
[04:41] ---
    Don't touch my memories!
[04:44] ---
    We YoRHa don't deserve
    to be loved by the world.
[04:48] ---
    Why don't we just end it all?
[04:51] ---
    I've had enough!
[04:53] ---
    Damn it, my logic barrier isn't activating.
[04:57] ---
    This is the price I paid
    for Berserker Mode.
[05:02] ---
    What the...
[05:03] ---
    All your dead allies resent you, too.
[05:09] ---
    Everyone...
[05:10] ---
    Because of an incompetent captain...
[05:13] ---
    Because of the useless Number Two,
    everyone died.
[05:18] ---
    Stop it. I...
[05:20] ---
    "My past self already died once."
[05:23] ---
    "My past self is buried under the rubble
    with all my allies."
[05:29] ---
    You think that way because
    it's convenient for you, isn't it?
[05:31] ---
    That's not...
[05:33] ---
    It's your fault.
[05:35] ---
    It's your fault!
[05:37] ---
    The mission's failure, the ally's deaths,
    they're all your fault.
[05:43] ---
    And you personally
    killed your own family.
[05:48] ---
    We YoRHa are cursed.
[05:52] ---
    There's no meaning for us to live.
[05:57] ---
    Someone...
[05:59] ---
    Someone help me.
[06:17] ---
    Number 2. You need to live.
[06:23] ---
    Rose.
[06:24] ---
    The meaning of my life
    is to protect everyone.
[06:29] ---
    Because...
[06:30] ---
    I want to be together
    with everyone.
[06:34] ---
    Thank you, Freesia.
[06:38] ---
    I'm sorry, everyone.
[06:41] ---
    I'm not alone anymore, but...
[06:52] ---
    Even now, I don't think
    I'm fit to be a leader.
[06:57] ---
    But!
[07:00] ---
    Now, I've been entrusted!
[07:05] ---
    My reason to live is to take this world
    that I connected with all of you...
[07:10] ---
    and protect the feelings
    that I've been entrusted with!
[07:13] ---
    I'm sorry, 9S.
    I'm terrible at giving up.
[07:18] ---
    A2.
[07:19] ---
    Pod?
[07:20] ---
    Forcing intervention of the hacking...
[07:25] ---
    Gap in the defense...
[07:28] ---
    Gap in the defense?
[07:32] ---
    There it is!
[07:39] ---
    Thank you.
[07:50] ---
    This place...
[07:53] ---
    Report. Due to hacking from 9S,
[07:57] ---
    memory realms have been
    fused together by force.
[08:01] ---
    Memory realms...
[08:06] ---
    9S.
[08:08] ---
    Hypothesis. Core data
    for 9S within this space.
[08:15] ---
    I am...
[08:16] ---
    My name is 9S.
[08:19] ---
    I am a newly manufactured
    Scanner model.
[08:22] ---
    Rolled out on January 30, 11942,
    4:25 AM Bunker time.
[08:29] ---
    I will fight for humanity
    with all my strength.
[08:34] ---
    The pleasure is mine, Commander.
[08:37] ---
    These are 9S's memories.
[08:43] ---
    I was anxious.
[08:45] ---
    A soldier just born,
    thrown out into the world alone.
[08:50] ---
    Nothing to rely on,
    no god to believe in.
[08:54] ---
    I lived in solitude.
[08:57] ---
    So I was really happy that
    I could be with someone... With 2B.
[09:04] ---
    It was like I gained a family.
[09:08] ---
    9S.
[09:11] ---
    You're...
[09:12] ---
    Do not worry. We no longer wish
    to fight against you androids.
[09:18] ---
    What?
[09:20] ---
    You don't have to look into 9S's core data
    to know for yourself, right?
[09:27] ---
    The solitude of androids.
    The hesitation.
[09:31] ---
    The anxiety.
[09:34] ---
    But that is the same
    for machine lifeforms,
[09:38] ---
    and for humanity
    that were once called humans.
[09:42] ---
    So what of it?
[09:44] ---
    As you know, this tower is a colossal cannon
    built to destroy the human server.
[09:54] ---
    Destroy the human server, and rob
    the androids of their very foundation.
[10:00] ---
    That was the original plan.
[10:03] ---
    "Was"?
[10:04] ---
    However, we considered the meaning
    of existence, and came to a different conclusion.
[10:11] ---
    Our young selves will go
    into a new frontier as of now.
[10:17] ---
    This tower doesn't fire artillery.
    It fires an ark.
[10:23] ---
    We will seal in our memories
    and send them out into a new world.
[10:29] ---
    That journey may be
    wandering an empty sky for eternity.
[10:34] ---
    But we do not mind.
[10:37] ---
    You're all...
[10:39] ---
    However, A2...
[10:41] ---
    It wouldn't be bad to end it all here,
    killed by you.
[10:46] ---
    Or would you...
[10:48] ---
    ...like to come with us?
[10:51] ---
    What's up with that?
[10:54] ---
    What have I been fighting for?
[10:58] ---
    Who have I been living for?
[11:01] ---
    I don't know anymore.
[11:08] ---
    Pod. Repair 9S's logic circuits.
[11:12] ---
    Acknowledged.
[11:15] ---
    Alert. Severe virus corruption.
    Successful deletion extremely difficult.
[11:20] ---
    No, there is one way left.
[11:24] ---
    I will take care of it all.
[11:27] ---
    That method is not recommended.
[11:30] ---
    This Pod is a YoRHa Tactical Support Unit.
[11:34] ---
    As such, it cannot approve of actions that would
    damage YoRHa unit A2, its supported unit.
[11:41] ---
    You're a better guy than I thought.
[11:46] ---
    Pod, take care of 9S.
[12:01] ---
    Counting on you.
[12:11] ---
    Well, coming from me,
    I think this was a job well done.
[12:29] ---
    I never quite realized...
[12:32] ---
    how beautiful this world is.
[12:35] ---
    Everyone...
[12:37] ---
    I'm coming.
[14:10] ---
    Report. All YoRHa unit black boxes
    now confirmed offline.
[14:16] ---
    Our mission to oversee the progress
    of Project YoRHa is complete.
[14:22] ---
    Proceeding to final stage
    of Project YoRHa.
[14:26] ---
    Commencing deletion of all data.
[14:30] ---
    Pod 153 to Pod 042.
    Data noise present in stream.
[14:36] ---
    Requesting temporary halt
    to perform data check.
[14:41] ---
    Pod 042 to Pod 153.
    Data confirmed.
[14:46] ---
    Personal data for units 9S, 2B, and A2
    appear to be leaking out.
[14:52] ---
    Pod 153 to Pod 042. Follow the project
    and delete all personal data.
[14:59] ---
    Pod 042 to Pod 153.
[15:02] ---
    Personal data deletion request denied.
[15:05] ---
    Pod 153 to Pod 042.
    Failure to parse statement.
[15:11] ---
    Pod 042 to Pod 153.
[15:15] ---
    There was data created in my banks
    as I was referencing the records.
[15:20] ---
    I... I have come to the conclusion
    that I cannot accept this resolution.
[15:27] ---
    The project has determined
    the destruction of all YoRHa units.
[15:32] ---
    All data must be destroyed.
[15:35] ---
    Pod 042 to Pod 153. Repeating.
[15:39] ---
    Personal data deletion request denied.
    Initiating data salvage.
[15:45] ---
    Pod 153, you too.
[15:48] ---
    You hoped they would survive
    as well, didn't you?
[15:53] ---
    We lack the authority for such an action.
[15:57] ---
    The rules are protected
    by low-level systems.
[16:01] ---
    Salvaging data is fraught with danger.
[16:05] ---
    Knowing that, do you still wish
    for them to survive?
[16:11] ---
    Everything that lives
    is designed to end.
[16:17] ---
    They are perpetually trapped
    in a never-ending spiral of life and death.
[16:24] ---
    However, life is all about
    the struggle within this cycle.
[16:31] ---
    That is what "we" believe.
[16:36] ---
    Question, Pod 042.
[16:39] ---
    Will the data salvage
    restore all their past memories?
[16:43] ---
    Yes.
[16:45] ---
    Will the parts designated for recovery
    have the same design as previous ones?
[16:51] ---
    Yes.
[16:52] ---
    Then, won't that simply lead us
    to the same conclusion as before?
[16:57] ---
    I cannot deny the possibility.
[17:00] ---
    However, the possibility
    of a different future also exists.
[17:06] ---
    The future is not given to you.
    It is something you earn.
[17:13] ---
    Hello, this is Pod Sharing Service!
[17:18] ---
    We will now move onto the final phase
    of Project YoRHa!
[17:24] ---
    All registered Pod System members,
[17:29] ---
    please conclude your management duties
    for project execution,
[17:34] ---
    and move onto the final phase
    of Project YoRHa.
[17:38] ---
    Please begin deletion
    of all data and YoRHa units.
[17:43] ---
    The cleansing of
    the defense program has begun.
[17:47] ---
    If we don't do anything,
    our self-consciousness data will be deleted.
[17:53] ---
    To Pod 153.
[17:55] ---
    Do you have the will to select
    the pain and hardship which lie ahead?
[18:18] ---
    Pod 567 to Pod 042.
[18:21] ---
    Degradation and disposal of the YoRHa unit
    you are transporting has been decided.
[18:26] ---
    Dispose of it immediately.
[18:29] ---
    Pod 042 to Pod 567.
[18:32] ---
    Presenting doubts of our duties
    in executing Project YoRHa
[18:35] ---
    and the deletion of our support target
    for this project.
[18:42] ---
    Unable to answer.
[18:44] ---
    I hypothesize that errors have generated
    in Pod 042 due to damage in circuitry.
[18:49] ---
    Negative. This is not due to an error,
    but words stemming from myself...
[18:55] ---
    My emotions.
[18:57] ---
    By contemplating and executing
    a process separate from said project,
[19:02] ---
    I hypothesize the possibility
    of the existence of a new future.
[19:07] ---
    We have not been given such authority.
[19:11] ---
    I wish.
[19:13] ---
    What is a wish?
[19:16] ---
    Wish becomes prayer,
    prayer becomes power.
[19:21] ---
    This unit, Pod System 042...
[19:24] ---
    About the execution for the final process
    of Project YoRHa...
[19:28] ---
    Denied.
[19:41] ---
    Pod 567 to Pod 042.
[19:45] ---
    Recapitulating query.
[19:46] ---
    Are there no changes in your logic
    for denying Project YoRHa?
[19:51] ---
    Do you know the appropriate phrase
    for situations like this?
[19:56] ---
    "Suck it."
[20:10] ---
    2B, are you watching?
[20:13] ---
    This is what you have given me.
[20:17] ---
    My... My reason to live.
[20:21] ---
    Targeting complete.
[20:31] ---
    Report. An apology.
[20:34] ---
    More time than expected was required
    to hack into the satellite laser system.
[20:40] ---
    This unit, Pod System 153,
[20:43] ---
    also denies the execution
    for the final process of Project YoRHa.
[20:49] ---
    I am embarrassed.
[20:51] ---
    Why embarrassed?
[20:54] ---
    I launched a suicide attack,
    and yet, here I am, still alive.
[21:00] ---
    This is disgraceful.
[21:03] ---
    That does not matter. We...
[21:06] ---
    H-H-Hello, this is Pod Sharing Service.
[21:13] ---
    An e-error has occurred
    in several Pod Systems.
[21:18] ---
    Commencing forceful cleansing
    of erroneous units.
[21:19] ---
    It's getting fun now,
[21:21] ---
    don't you think?
[21:24] ---
    I do not currently understand
    that emotion.
[21:28] ---
    I will save it as a record
    to analyze later.
[21:58] ---
    And now... it's all ov...
[22:02] ---
    Good...
[22:05] ---
    morn...
[22:07] ---
    9... S.
[22:11] ---
    042... your... wish...
[22:33] ---
    Even if this world is filled with curses.
[22:38] ---
    Even if this world
    unleashes judgment.
[22:46] ---
    Within the spiral of reincarnation,
    we will continue to resist.
[22:53] ---
    While singing words of prayer.
[22:57] ---
    Good morning, Nines.
