[00:02] ---
Extendeds.
[00:04] ---
A deformed existence that is created by
supplementing something one lacks
[00:08] ---
with something else.
[00:11] ---
Comical, yet somewhat beautiful.
[00:16] ---
My name is Andy Wachowski.
[00:20] ---
In the past, I worked with Berühren to
create the theory of extension technology.
[00:26] ---
And as its creator,
[00:28] ---
I cannot forgive the outrageous actions
of the Berühren company.
[00:35] ---
Gun Slave Units have a limiter
that they cannot release without
[00:40] ---
the authorization of their Hands.
[00:44] ---
Master Tetsuro, the hacking abilities of
Harmony is needed to remove that limiter
[00:52] ---
so Device 13 can fight
evenly against Seven.
[01:03] ---
Now, for my sake,
unleash the power of that man.
[01:21] ---
We have Master Tetsuro's body here.
[01:25] ---
He will not be able to put
up much of a struggle.
[01:28] ---
Take care not to injure him
too much during capture.
[01:31] ---
Though, it seems a little discipline is needed.
[03:06] ---
"I'm Dreaming"
[03:18] ---
Who would have thought I'd be having
my rematch with you like this?
[03:25] ---
I doubt my anger will subside by defeating
you while you are controlled by a child...
[03:34] ---
But I shall not hold back.
[03:46] ---
You bastard!
[03:50] ---
Even though he is in a Gun Slave Unit,
[03:53] ---
why are they having
so much trouble with a child?
[03:56] ---
Go join them, Kunugi.
[04:00] ---
But...
[04:01] ---
I am the only one here.
[04:05] ---
Well, then.
[04:09] ---
What a foolish child.
[04:11] ---
I extended my hand out to him
because I had found him pitiful.
[04:20] ---
It seems we have no choice,
but to extract Harmony somehow...
[04:27] ---
Be quiet.
[04:29] ---
If you call for help,
[04:31] ---
I will unplug the life-support system
connected to your chair.
[04:36] ---
Harmony is definitely still active.
[04:40] ---
You should be inside Device 13 right now.
[04:45] ---
I used Harmony to hack into my own sub-brain.
[04:51] ---
Your own sub-brain?!
[04:53] ---
I wasn't controlling Juzo from the start.
[05:06] ---
Wha--?!
[05:07] ---
Bastard!
[05:09] ---
Weren't you being controlled by that brat?!
[05:13] ---
That kid.
[05:14] ---
He asked me to help him so he
could settle his own problems himself.
[05:22] ---
He's always asked me not
to get involved until now.
[05:28] ---
You get to decide your own worth.
[05:33] ---
He accepted his own weakness and still
said he'd move forward in front of me.
[05:40] ---
Damn. That kid has learned to say
some pretty cocky things!
[05:45] ---
I needed to talk with you alone one more time.
[05:52] ---
Now, why don't we start negotiations,
Professor Wachowski?
[06:04] ---
There is only one thing I want.
[06:08] ---
I want Spitzbergen to stop committing
any more acts of terrorism.
[06:27] ---
To call something like that a negotiation...
[06:33] ---
No, my apologies.
[06:36] ---
For this demand, that affects
the very basis of Spitzbergen,
[06:40] ---
what will you give in return?
[06:43] ---
Do you really think you have
something befitting of such a trade?
[06:47] ---
I cannot imagine that you do...
[06:51] ---
Me.
[06:54] ---
I will hand myself over to you.
[06:58] ---
You wanted me to eliminate Seven.
[07:02] ---
The Gun Slave Unit working with Berühren,
also known as Seven.
[07:08] ---
He has become a great
obstacle in our activities.
[07:14] ---
I can inhibit the powers of a
Gun Slave Unit with just Harmony.
[07:19] ---
There is no need for Juzo.
[07:22] ---
Should I call this a wonderful
example of self-sacrifice?
[07:29] ---
It seems your guilt in aiding terrorist
activity has made you think in this way.
[07:36] ---
I do not plan to sacrifice anyone.
[07:38] ---
Including myself.
[07:40] ---
That is quite a lofty ideal.
[07:45] ---
Though I have lost my memories as the
son of Berühren's CEO, Tetsuro Arahabaki,
[07:52] ---
I know what they do in the shadows.
[07:56] ---
Such cruel experiments should be
stopped as soon as possible.
[08:02] ---
And so, you will hand yourself over to us?
[08:04] ---
I will cooperate with you!
Until Seven is defeated.
[08:10] ---
There should be ways to show Berühren's crimes
to the public that don't involve terrorism.
[08:15] ---
I want Spitzbergen to think of another method.
[08:21] ---
You were quite lucky to be released with
all your limbs intact a few days ago.
[08:30] ---
Many in the organization wanted
to kill you as a warning to Berühren
[08:36] ---
or use you as a bargaining chip.
[08:41] ---
Do you think such people would
be willing to lend their ears to you?
[08:49] ---
It seems you have already prepared yourself.
[08:53] ---
However, you understand nothing.
[08:57] ---
Do you know why the anti-extension
organization commits terrorism?
[09:02] ---
It's because there is no other choice.
[09:06] ---
After the great war, Berühren gained
control over half of the country.
[09:12] ---
The government is their loyal dog,
the press is controlled,
[09:17] ---
and the economy is manipulated
to endorse Extendeds.
[09:21] ---
I understand that the power
of Berühren is immense.
[09:25] ---
Then, do you know their
final objective with that power?
[09:28] ---
Have you ever thought about the reason
they conduct such cruel experiments?
[09:36] ---
Well...
[09:41] ---
Come to think of it, I still haven't told
you the reason I am a part of Spitzbergen.
[09:49] ---
No, the very reason I created this organization.
[09:53] ---
Created?! You?
[09:56] ---
Yes.
[09:57] ---
I wanted to change Berühren and extension
technology back to what it once was.
[10:05] ---
Long ago, before you were even conceived,
[10:09] ---
Berühren was an institution that focused
purely on research and development.
[10:16] ---
The board officers known as Wurzel,
who founded Berühren...
[10:21] ---
CSO Strange.
[10:24] ---
CTO Dreamy.
[10:26] ---
CMO Timid.
[10:28] ---
And COO Honest.
[10:32] ---
I was an engineer that had
worked directly under them.
[10:36] ---
We struggled against this world,
[10:38] ---
researching extension technology
so humans could live fully as humans.
[10:45] ---
That was also the wish of Honest,
who was the central figure of Wurzel.
[10:54] ---
However, as the years passed,
their form and ideals slowly degenerated.
[11:03] ---
The research in order to live
became the research not to die.
[11:09] ---
And funding that research
became their main objective.
[11:16] ---
Berühren has become a giant life-support
system for a group of ugly elders
[11:21] ---
that are desperately clinging to life.
[11:26] ---
Then what about the CEO Souichiro Arahabaki?
[11:29] ---
Wasn't my father the one who gave orders
for the illegal human experiments?
[11:34] ---
He... No, his name has been used as the
public face of Wurzel for generations.
[11:45] ---
Even now, your father should
be working under Honest.
[11:52] ---
After the war, I escaped from the
Berühren that Wurzel controlled
[11:57] ---
"Anti Extension"
After the war, I escaped from the
Berühren that Wurzel controlled
[11:57] ---
"Anti Extension"
and created the organization Spitzbergen.
[12:00] ---
"Anti Extension"
I did it in order to monitor Berühren
and warn the rest of the world.
[12:06] ---
However, most of the organization members
here are victims of Extended crime.
[12:11] ---
Over time, it became a place where
those against the government gather,
[12:16] ---
"Anti Extension"
distorting its original principle.
[12:20] ---
Now, it's just a terrorist group that
wishes to stamp out extension technology.
[12:26] ---
Unfortunately, I can no longer stop
the actions of this organization.
[12:32] ---
No way!
[12:33] ---
But there is still a way to fight against them.
[12:37] ---
I need Gun Slave Unit Device 13 for that.
[12:51] ---
Not yet!
[12:53] ---
The match hasn't been decided yet,
you profane existence!
[12:58] ---
That's great and all, however...
[13:01] ---
...it looks like you've improved your armor
but you're still flesh and bone inside.
[13:11] ---
I can't guarantee your life
if we keep going at it like this.
[13:17] ---
What was that?
[13:27] ---
These can't be?!
[13:38] ---
I can hit trigger points with my needle bullets,
controlling the condition of Extendeds at will.
[13:48] ---
Sorry, but I've already heard
of that technique elsewhere.
[13:54] ---
Oh, I remember now.
[13:57] ---
You're the strange man who hangs out
with Kronen, even though you're an Extended.
[14:03] ---
It's difficult having an inadequate junior.
[14:06] ---
Kunugi!
[14:08] ---
The brat isn't controlling this man!
[14:11] ---
The brat is still inside, near the elder!
[14:15] ---
I see. I guessed as much.
[14:19] ---
There weren't many disturbances
in his neural system for being controlled.
[14:26] ---
Kunugi, you bastard!
[14:28] ---
If you knew, why did you
leave the elder's side?!
[14:32] ---
It is your duty to protect him!
[14:37] ---
A single child with his Harmony sealed
is not a danger to that old man, Shimazu.
[14:45] ---
What?
[14:46] ---
As long as we hold this Extended back.
[14:52] ---
Hold me back?
[14:57] ---
Looks like you all don't get it.
[15:02] ---
I'm the one holding all of you back.
[15:07] ---
You can still move.
[15:09] ---
I can see why Kronen couldn't handle you.
[15:12] ---
What a troublesome guy.
[15:16] ---
He didn't depend on my power from the start.
[15:22] ---
He's trying to do something
you can't do with just your fists.
[15:28] ---
And I won't let you get in the way!
[15:32] ---
The reason I want Device 13,
which you call Juzo Inui...
[15:39] ---
Destroying Device 7, known as Seven,
will destroy the very core of Wurzel.
[15:53] ---
What do you mean?
[15:55] ---
Device 13 is the only device I involved
myself with during every step of production.
[16:01] ---
There is a certain setting that none
of the other Gun Slave Units have.
[16:09] ---
That setting I implemented is the very
difference between me and Wurzel.
[16:18] ---
I am sure that Wurzel is the only one
who would understand that difference...
[16:23] ---
No, only Honest and I would understand.
[16:27] ---
That is what is important.
[16:30] ---
If I can destroy the delusions of Wurzel
and weaken their power,
[16:35] ---
Berühren will return to its former glory.
[16:42] ---
If that happens, silencing the acts of
terrorism would no longer be a dream.
[16:47] ---
Do you understand now?
[16:50] ---
The reason Device 13 is needed.
[16:53] ---
Using Harmony to release
the true power of Device 13
[16:58] ---
will be the key to bringing this
country a new era of peace.
[17:05] ---
The honorable sacrifice of Device 13 will make
your dream come true, Master Tetsuro.
[17:21] ---
As the organization's representative,
I thank you for your assistance, Master Tetsuro.
[17:36] ---
I see...
[17:38] ---
I took your hand at that time
to right the wrongs of Berühren.
[17:44] ---
Do you remember now?
[17:47] ---
I didn't know what kind of person
I was before I lost my memory.
[17:52] ---
Because of that, I recklessly caused
other people a lot of trouble.
[17:57] ---
But, thanks to you, I understand who I am
a little more so I can overcome that hurdle.
[18:07] ---
Right now, I am not a person
who can obey someone
[18:11] ---
who talks about sacrificing another so easily.
[18:17] ---
Professor.
[18:19] ---
I will not give up on making my ideals
a reality without the sacrifice of others.
[18:24] ---
That's why I won't allow you
to hurt my friend, Juzo!
[18:33] ---
I didn't realize you were this stupid.
[18:36] ---
It seems any further argument is useless.
[18:39] ---
It will be difficult to find someone
compatible with Harmony, but no matter.
[18:47] ---
I will remove your head carefully
and extract Harmony from you.
[19:02] ---
You were an Extended!
[19:05] ---
Didn't I tell you?
[19:07] ---
I created extension technology
to struggle against this world.
[19:13] ---
What will you do now?
[19:15] ---
Are you going to beg Device 13 for help?
[19:20] ---
The nerves of an old man
cannot fully control this body,
[19:25] ---
but it will be easy to defeat someone
with legal extensions that lack power.
[19:35] ---
If you could have used Harmony,
you may have had a chance against me.
[19:46] ---
Unless I release it, Harmony will
remain locked in its current position.
[19:52] ---
In other words, it will stay
locked on your own sub-brain.
[19:59] ---
What's wrong?
[20:01] ---
Do you plan to protect that
boy with a body like that?
[20:10] ---
Protect?
[20:11] ---
True, I promised him that.
[20:14] ---
But that was only until he
could walk on his own two feet.
[20:20] ---
Well... it's not like that
changes much of what I do.
[20:24] ---
I'll play with you guys...
until you all are completely satisfied!
[20:36] ---
No matter what pretty words
you claim, this is reality.
[20:42] ---
No matter how noble your cause,
blood will spill if you fight,
[20:47] ---
and the weak die.
[20:50] ---
I know.
[20:52] ---
I know that I am only spouting idealism.
[20:56] ---
Justice that doesn't put your own life
on the line is just an empty pipe dream.
[21:02] ---
It's just as you say, Juzo.
[21:06] ---
It seems you are getting disoriented.
[21:09] ---
Device 13 isn't here right now.
[21:12] ---
You have no way to fight back, Master Tetsuro!
[21:27] ---
But...
[21:29] ---
Even so...
[21:34] ---
Even though I know it's a pipe dream...
[21:37] ---
...I can't help being
enamored by the beauty of it!
[21:41] ---
I'll put my life on the line...
[21:44] ---
...to grasp that dream!
[23:21] ---
--This is the end, profane existance!
[23:22] ---
--All action causes a reaction.
--This is the end, profane existance!
[23:23] ---
--All action causes a reaction.
--I told you he was an inadequate junior.
[23:25] ---
--Bastard, what did you do with Tetsuro?
--All action causes a reaction.
--I told you he was an inadequate junior.
[23:27] ---
--Bastard, what did you do with Tetsuro?
--Become mine.
