"501st, Ready for Night Work?"
**[01:30] ---**
Today, Barkhorn is teaching us a lesson.
**[01:33] ---**
Something to keep in mind
when fighting the Neuroi.
**[01:36] ---**
They use beam weapons,
**[01:38] ---**
which means a single moment's
lapsed concentration can be fatal.
**[01:41] ---**
That's why you need to not close
your eyes or look away.
**[01:44] ---**
You can't close your eyes?
**[01:45] ---**
That's tough.
**[01:46] ---**
At first, nobody could do it.
**[01:48] ---**
Right, Hartmann?
**[01:51] ---**
But with enough training,
you can keep them open at all times.
**[01:56] ---**
Want to try it?
**[01:58] ---**
It involves a gun?
**[02:00] ---**
Could you show us first?
**[02:02] ---**
Can you do it, Hartmann?
**[02:05] ---**
What's wrong?
**[02:06] ---**
Come up front.
**[02:09] ---**
That's fine. We can do it with her asleep.
**[02:09] ---**
"Hartmann's Ultimate Technique:
'Open-Eyed Sleeping'"
"Its weak point is dry eyes."
**[02:12] ---**
Hartmann, wake up!
**[02:15] ---**
--No! Lynne's magic will blow
a hole right through me!
**[02:15] ---**
--This is an emergency. Everyone, report
to the commander's office immediately.
**[02:21] ---**
What do you think this is about?
**[02:21] ---**
"Thanks for letting me get
some target practice in. Bye!"
"Oh, um, sure."
**[02:22] ---**
Well, we'll know when we get there.
**[02:25] ---**
Hey, Mio.
**[02:26] ---**
Don't let me sleep a wink tonight.
**[02:28] ---**
Yeah, you can count on me.
**[02:30] ---**
Don't bring me here to show me that.
**[02:33] ---**
Have a good time.
**[02:34] ---**
Come back!
**[02:36] ---**
There's reports the Neuroi
will attack tonight.
**[02:39] ---**
So you're on night duty tonight.
You'll be staying up all night.
**[02:44] ---**
Huh? You're on night duty tonight, Yoshika?
**[02:47] ---**
That's right.
**[02:49] ---**
We all are?
**[02:50] ---**
The reports say you and the regular
night patrol can handle it.
**[02:54] ---**
♪ No matter what happens, it won't get to me!
Even if the Earth blows up... ♪
**[02:59] ---**
Sanya, I need you tell me all about
how I can do my best tonight.
**[03:04] ---**
Sure. I'll teach your body how
to do what it needs to do.
**[03:09] ---**
No sign of the Neuroi...
**[03:11] ---**
Want to go for a walk?
**[03:13] ---**
Bad idea.
**[03:14] ---**
You shouldn't wander around at night,
even if it's just inside the base.
**[03:17] ---**
Yeah. You're a frail little girl.
**[03:20] ---**
What about her?
**[03:21] ---**
She doesn't count.
**[03:22] ---**
What's she doing?
**[03:24] ---**
I see a glimpse of a Fuso blade
in the darkness...
**[03:29] ---**
So tired...
**[03:30] ---**
You guys ready?
**[03:31] ---**
For the Neuroi?
**[03:32] ---**
No, I filled up the big bath.
**[03:35] ---**
Go take a dip.
**[03:37] ---**
I see!
**[03:38] ---**
So you were cutting logs to heat it up.
**[03:41] ---**
Sorry I'm late!
**[03:43] ---**
You took your time, Miyafuji.
**[03:45] ---**
Sorry, it was tougher than I thought!
**[03:48] ---**
Miyafuji?!
**[03:51] ---**
Hot!
**[03:54] ---**
This is the normal temperature in Fuso.
**[03:56] ---**
Th-That's right.
**[03:58] ---**
I like it so hot it's painful.
**[04:01] ---**
You heard her...
**[04:03] ---**
Hot baths are dangerous,
and can cause strokes and heart attacks.
**[04:07] ---**
What do you think, Miyafuji?
**[04:10] ---**
Moderation in all things is important.
**[04:13] ---**
Sexy girl Hartmann has special tips
for bath beauty care.
**[04:18] ---**
I recommend using Sturm to move air
under your body, creating a bubble bath!
**[04:23] ---**
It relaxes and beautifies!
**[04:26] ---**
Feels so good!
**[04:28] ---**
You're a lady, act like it.
**[04:31] ---**
"Sauna"
**[04:31] ---**
Doesn't the sauna feel good, Eila?
**[04:34] ---**
Yeah. Glad we begged them to put one in.
**[04:37] ---**
I would've preferred a *savusauna*, though,
**[04:37] ---**
"A sauna that fills the room
with steam instead of smoke."
**[04:39] ---**
but everybody was against it.
**[04:41] ---**
So the temperature's 80 degrees?
**[04:41] ---**
"100"
"50"
"0"
**[04:43] ---**
That's cold.
**[04:44] ---**
Want to head out for a second?
***SIGN*** "People from Northern Europe are unaffected by cold but seem to not like temperatures between 0 and 60."
**[04:46] ---**
It's so hot outside.
**[04:49] ---**
It's five degrees.
We're in the tropics, after all.
**[04:51] ---**
I feel so relaxed, don't you?
**[04:53] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:54] ---**
Want some coffee?
**[04:55] ---**
Sure.
**[04:56] ---**
That was a great way to relax.
***SIGN*** "Can't breathe" "Can't breathe" "So bitter"
**[04:59] ---**
Oh, right.
**[05:00] ---**
Shirley, Lynne.
**[05:03] ---**
What is it, Yoshika?
**[05:05] ---**
You can go to bed now.
**[05:07] ---**
Why were we brought here then?
**[05:08] ---**
"For Your Boobs"
**[05:10] ---**
"Sorry..."
**[05:10] ---**
Do you have any gum to help me stay awake?
**[05:13] ---**
It's not gum, but we used to
eat this back in Fuso.
**[05:17] ---**
A devil fish!
**[05:19] ---**
"Tentacles? For a magical girl?!"
**[05:19] ---**
You don't like them?
**[05:21] ---**
Please remember that, Squadron Leader!
**[05:24] ---**
"Kyaaah"! You went "Kyaah."
**[05:28] ---**
I'm going to use the
kitchen for a little bit.
**[05:30] ---**
You're going to cook?
**[05:32] ---**
Everybody will be hungry soon.
**[05:34] ---**
But eating makes you sleepy, right?
**[05:37] ---**
Should we deliberately make it taste bad?
**[05:39] ---**
That sounds kind of fun.
**[05:40] ---**
Wait! That's a problem in and of itself!
**[05:43] ---**
We're going to go to
battle. We need nutrition.
**[05:46] ---**
It'll be fine!
**[05:47] ---**
Fine for you, I'm sure, but...
**[05:49] ---**
That's not what I mean!
The Neuroi aren't coming,
**[05:51] ---**
so don't ruin Sanya's cooking!
**[05:54] ---**
Hang on a second!
**[05:58] ---**
They really didn't come.
**[06:00] ---**
Who's to blame here, you think?
**[06:02] ---**
The Neuroi are going to pay for this...
**[06:05] ---**
I've never wanted
the Neuroi to come so badly.
**[06:08] ---**
Excuse me, everyone.
**[06:10] ---**
They're finally here?
**[06:11] ---**
I'm so sick of waiting.
**[06:13] ---**
I didn't think I'd get such a warm welcome.
**[06:17] ---**
Marseille has come from the African
theater to do a photoshoot.
**[06:22] ---**
And the Neuroi that were coming...
**[06:24] ---**
They were in my way, so I took
them down for you before I landed.
**[06:28] ---**
You can welcome me,
but I don't do autographs.
**[06:34] ---**
Huh?
**[06:36] ---**
Ultimate Technique: "Open-Eyed Sleeping."
**[06:39] ---**
I have a special announcement
for you all today.
**[06:41] ---**
I'm Hanna Justina Marseille.
**[06:43] ---**
I've come to do a photoshoot
for the PR department.
**[06:47] ---**
Nice to meet you all.
**[06:51] ---**
Where are the others?!
**[06:54] ---**
They were all up all night last night...
**[06:56] ---**
So they were awake when
**[06:58] ---**
I came because they
were up waiting for the Neuroi I defeated?
**[07:01] ---**
So it's up to you, Lucchini!
**[07:03] ---**
Give her everything she needs!
**[07:05] ---**
Roger!
**[07:07] ---**
They wanted photos of me
meeting another ultra ace...
**[07:10] ---**
But they're all asleep.
**[07:12] ---**
Mina! I know this is the front lines,
**[07:14] ---**
but you shouldn't abuse your people
so much that one night knocks them out!
**[07:18] ---**
That's not it! It's because
they slack off all day!
**[07:18] ---**
"What!?"
**[07:21] ---**
But I can't say that!
**[07:23] ---**
We were woken up.
**[07:25] ---**
My name is Marseille, and I'm with
the Storm Witches in Africa.
**[07:29] ---**
I'm here for part of a military propaganda
campaign called "Meeting of Aces."
**[07:34] ---**
Nice to meet you all.
**[07:36] ---**
Um... sorry.
**[07:39] ---**
If you want an autograph
as an apology, I'll...
**[07:41] ---**
It's not your fault!
**[07:43] ---**
Well, this is a pain.
**[07:45] ---**
You know her?
**[07:47] ---**
I guess she was Hartmann's
rival in Karlsland.
**[07:50] ---**
She would try and compete
with me in everything.
**[07:54] ---**
Eating.
**[07:56] ---**
Bathing.
**[07:57] ---**
During training...
**[07:59] ---**
It was rough.
**[08:02] ---**
She sounds like a stalker.
**[08:03] ---**
You don't get to talk!
**[08:06] ---**
I just remembered that my sister
wanted your autograph.
**[08:12] ---**
Oh, she wants my autograph, huh?
**[08:15] ---**
Huh? She looks happy.
**[08:17] ---**
I bet almost nobody ever actually asks.
**[08:19] ---**
I'm not doing any autographs
for rock-headed sister-lovers!
**[08:23] ---**
Hey, Hanna!
**[08:25] ---**
Trude isn't rock-head, and she
isn't obsessed with her sister--
**[08:28] ---**
Never mind. Sorry for interrupting.
**[08:30] ---**
Hey!
**[08:32] ---**
For now, why don't we eat lunch?
**[08:34] ---**
We can have an eating competition, Hartmann!
**[08:37] ---**
Fine, let's settle this!
**[08:40] ---**
It's rare for you to actually agree.
**[08:42] ---**
Here we go!
**[08:43] ---**
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses...
**[08:47] ---**
What bad manners!
**[08:48] ---**
I guess we have our winner.
**[08:50] ---**
No, this isn't what I wanted.
**[08:53] ---**
Oh, right. Can I have milk, not tea?
**[08:53] ---**
"So full..."
**[08:56] ---**
Does that go well with lunch?
**[08:58] ---**
Of course.
**[08:59] ---**
It's the only way to
maintain my good eyesight.
**[09:02] ---**
And my proportions are the best
in the world, and it's thanks to milk!
**[09:06] ---**
You think you're the best, huh?
**[09:08] ---**
Yoshika...
**[09:10] ---**
Why compete when you've got
something only you can do?
**[09:13] ---**
Like your butt reload.
**[09:15] ---**
What's that?
**[09:16] ---**
She carries her ammo on her hip,
**[09:18] ---**
and bounces it up to her hand
with her butt so she can reload.
**[09:22] ---**
That's a neat trick.
**[09:23] ---**
I see...
**[09:25] ---**
So I guess I'm the greatest
butt-master in the world.
**[09:30] ---**
Ignorance is scary.
**[09:32] ---**
What?
**[09:33] ---**
Get a load of this.
**[09:34] ---**
Wing Commander Mina used her butt to--
**[09:36] ---**
"Neuroi"
**[09:36] ---**
So, who are you going to pair off with?
**[09:39] ---**
Oh, right.
**[09:41] ---**
I made time in my busy schedule
to come here because Hartmann's here.
**[09:45] ---**
"Stay strong..."
"Thank you, friend."
**[09:45] ---**
Sucks to be Hartmann...
**[09:48] ---**
Well, she's probably the strongest here.
**[09:52] ---**
Yeah.
**[09:54] ---**
Yeah. Looks like I'm your girl.
**[09:56] ---**
What's going on between them?
**[10:01] ---**
Good work!
**[10:03] ---**
Hartmann's really cool
when she's not slacking off!
**[10:06] ---**
That's my rival for you.
**[10:09] ---**
Brave in the sky. Beautiful on the ground.
**[10:09] ---**
"Please shut up..."
**[10:11] ---**
Like a lily in bloom...
**[10:13] ---**
It's tough to have a stalker.
**[10:16] ---**
Eila, we need to talk later.
**[10:19] ---**
Okay, I need to get going.
**[10:21] ---**
You're leaving already?
You could at least take a bath first.
**[10:25] ---**
Yoshika...
**[10:27] ---**
Oh, right. Here.
**[10:27] ---**
"I knew it. She had some ready
even though nobody asked..."
**[10:30] ---**
An autograph, huh?
**[10:31] ---**
Thanks!
**[10:32] ---**
Stay longer next time.
**[10:34] ---**
I don't want to compete in anything, though.
**[10:37] ---**
Yeah. Thanks for your help today, Hartmann.
**[10:40] ---**
See you around!
**[10:41] ---**
--Why were we woken up for this?
--Yeah, take care!
**[10:45] ---**
Hartmann acting serious.
**[12:18] ---**
"Yamakawa Michiko's
Strike Witches Classroom"
**[12:19] ---**
Hi everybody!
**[12:21] ---**
It's time for Yamakawa Michiko's
Strike Witches Classroom!
**[12:24] ---**
Today's witch is Mina Dietlinde Wilcke!
**[12:31] ---**
She's the leader of the
501st Joint Fighter Wing,
**[12:37] ---**
and also one of the Karlsland
Empire's ace witches.
**[12:41] ---**
She's accomplished many
things in her battles.
**[12:45] ---**
Due to the beautiful, elegant way she fights,
**[12:48] ---**
she's sometimes called the Fürstin,
which means "Flying Princess."
**[12:51] ---**
She's also good at dealing
with delicate military politics,
**[12:57] ---**
and is the witch who created the 501st!
**[13:01] ---**
Her inherent ability is called
"Three Dimensional Space Understanding."
**[13:06] ---**
She can immediately find
the positions of enemies and allies,
**[13:08] ---**
and just the right orders.
**[13:11] ---**
You could say she's the ideal commander!
**[13:16] ---**
But she also wanted to be a vocalist,
**[13:19] ---**
and she's one of the best
singers among the witches!
**[13:24] ---**
The way she gets to be with a girl
who's great at fighting and the arts...
**[13:28] ---**
Yoshika's so amazing!
**[13:39] ---**
It's me, Michiko Yamakawa from Fuso!
**[13:41] ---**
I've heard Yoshika isn't doing so good!
**[13:45] ---**
What's going on? I'm worried!
**[13:48] ---**
Next time: "501st, You Can't Fly Anymore?"
**[13:48] ---**
"Next time:
501st, You Can't Fly Anymore?"
**[13:51] ---**
You've never seen witches like these before!
**[13:54] ---**
**[13:57] ---**
