**[00:02] ---**
What is this?
**[00:03] ---**
I-It's huge!
**[00:04] ---**
Is it... an iceberg-type Neuroi?
**[01:47] ---**
"Episode 2:
The Strike Witches Come Together"
**[02:01] ---**
What unit is that witch with?
**[02:02] ---**
I thought the Neuroi
jammed our calls for backup!
**[02:05] ---**
Her shield is so powerful...
**[02:07] ---**
Get us some distance! Now!
**[02:14] ---**
If I had my weapon...
**[02:34] ---**
I won't let you through!
**[02:46] ---**
N-Not now!
**[02:56] ---**
Give 'em everything you've got! Everything!
**[02:59] ---**
Fort Scheldt is Antwerpen's
ultimate line of defense!
**[03:03] ---**
No Neuroi will get past us!
**[03:08] ---**
Fire support from Fort Scheldt!
**[03:10] ---**
Okay, we'll support the witch!
**[03:18] ---**
Please, work!
**[03:22] ---**
Not the other one!
**[03:29] ---**
The Neuroi's attacks stopped!
**[03:32] ---**
It's working! Keep firing!
**[03:35] ---**
Captain, the witch
is going to land on top of us!
**[03:38] ---**
What?
**[03:39] ---**
It's not working!
**[03:41] ---**
No!
**[03:42] ---**
She's coming down! Get under her!
**[03:43] ---**
--Right!
--No, left!
**[03:53] ---**
Th-Thanks...
**[03:57] ---**
We've got her! The witch
is safely in our hands!
**[04:00] ---**
Who's she with?
**[04:01] ---**
Miyafuji, with the Fuso military!
**[04:04] ---**
Miyafuji? From the 501st?
**[04:12] ---**
Okay, we've got the Neuroi pinned down.
**[04:15] ---**
Where's our backup?
**[04:17] ---**
It's no good. We can't get through!
**[04:19] ---**
The Neuroi are jamming our calls for backup?
**[04:22] ---**
But we don't need any backup!
**[04:24] ---**
It's no match for the fort!
**[04:28] ---**
This thing's a mess!
**[04:29] ---**
It's barely been maintained!
**[04:31] ---**
I'm amazed you managed
to fly with this thing at all!
**[04:33] ---**
Please make it so I can fly!
**[04:36] ---**
We don't have the parts for a Striker Unit.
We'll have to make do.
**[04:41] ---**
Give us some time.
**[04:42] ---**
Okay, thank you!
**[04:44] ---**
Okay, let's get started!
**[04:46] ---**
Roger!
**[04:49] ---**
What is that?
**[05:00] ---**
The Neuroi...
**[05:03] ---**
The Neuroi split into smaller pieces!
**[05:05] ---**
What's it going to do?
**[05:18] ---**
The fortress has been hit!
**[05:19] ---**
All visible cannons have been destroyed!
**[05:22] ---**
The Neuroi launched themselves at it!
**[05:24] ---**
Bomb-type Neuroi?
**[05:26] ---**
No... bomb-type Neuroi?
**[05:29] ---**
A hit from them would finish us!
**[05:37] ---**
That's enough!
**[05:39] ---**
I'm going up right now!
**[05:41] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[05:42] ---**
--We just started!
--But...
**[05:45] ---**
Even if you could get off the ground,
they'd just shoot you immediately!
**[05:47] ---**
But if I don't go out there now,
the ship will be sunk!
**[05:50] ---**
Pilot Officer Miyafuji. You're wanted
on the bridge immediately.
**[05:53] ---**
The Captain wants to see you.
**[05:54] ---**
The Captain...
**[05:56] ---**
Altia's father!
**[06:04] ---**
The iceberg Neuroi is on the move again!
**[06:07] ---**
What direction is it going?
**[06:09] ---**
It's heading into mouth of the Scheldt.
**[06:11] ---**
It's heading straight for...
**[06:12] ---**
Antwerpen!
**[06:14] ---**
"Antwerpen, Belgica"
**[06:19] ---**
What's that?
**[06:28] ---**
This isn't right.
**[06:29] ---**
The Neuroi's attacks stopped.
**[06:32] ---**
I brought officer Miyafuji.
**[06:34] ---**
Oh, Officer Miyafuji.
**[06:36] ---**
I'm Carlo Grimani, the captain of this ship.
**[06:39] ---**
You're Altia's father, right?
**[06:41] ---**
You know Altia?
**[06:43] ---**
Yes!
**[06:44] ---**
The iceberg Neuroi has destroyed the fort
**[06:47] ---**
and is heading straight for port Antwerpen.
**[06:51] ---**
It stopped attacking
because this ship isn't a target.
**[06:54] ---**
But the situation is dire.
**[06:57] ---**
Antwerpen Port is the military's
most important supply base.
**[07:00] ---**
We can't let it fall.
**[07:03] ---**
I'm afraid our ship's firepower
isn't enough to destroy it.
**[07:10] ---**
We can't destroy it, but we should
be able to get it to change its target!
**[07:39] ---**
We switched the *Doge* to anti-Neuroi armor!
You won't destroy it that easily!
**[07:44] ---**
HE rounds loaded into all guns!
We're ready to fire!
**[07:49] ---**
Distance to iceberg Neuroi, 40 meters!
**[07:51] ---**
Fire!
**[08:03] ---**
Even anti-Neuroi armor
won't be good enough...
**[08:08] ---**
It's not ready!
**[08:10] ---**
I'm sorry! Just give us a little more time!
**[08:12] ---**
But the ship can't...
**[08:14] ---**
We know that!
**[08:15] ---**
We'll get you up there, so just shut up--
**[08:19] ---**
Cannon #2 is destroyed!
**[08:20] ---**
They broke through the anti-Neuroi armor!
**[08:23] ---**
The Neuroi's course remains unchanged!
It's heading for Antwerpen!
**[08:27] ---**
Come on, Neuroi, we're your opponent!
**[08:44] ---**
They're coming!
**[08:45] ---**
Shoot them down!
**[09:06] ---**
Where's the target?
**[09:16] ---**
It's changed course! It's coming after us!
**[09:20] ---**
Okay, it took the bait!
**[09:22] ---**
Full speed ahead!
We'll drag it out to the open sea.
**[09:27] ---**
The Neuroi changed direction
and is coming after us!
**[09:48] ---**
Military communications have
announced that a battle has begun
**[09:51] ---**
with the Neuroi at the mouth
of the Scheldt River.
**[09:53] ---**
Civilians in the area are
to evacuate immediately!
**[09:56] ---**
Get the civilians out of here!
**[09:58] ---**
Protect the port facilities from the Neuroi!
**[10:06] ---**
What's our damage?
**[10:07] ---**
The rear engine room's taking on water.
**[10:08] ---**
We've lost half our speed!
**[10:10] ---**
That's fine. Half speed is enough.
**[10:13] ---**
Get it as far away from the port as you can.
**[10:16] ---**
Miyafuji's shield kept us afloat, I guess.
**[10:34] ---**
If only my unit could fly...
**[10:41] ---**
Miyafuji!
**[10:43] ---**
Rear living quarters damaged!
**[10:45] ---**
Our front area is taking on water!
**[10:46] ---**
Our speed is dropping!
**[10:47] ---**
Our propulsion is dropping!
**[10:51] ---**
Even with anti-Neuroi armor,
this is the best we can do?
**[10:59] ---**
We'll have to stop it even if we die trying!
**[11:03] ---**
Captain! The deck elevator is active!
**[11:06] ---**
What?
**[11:17] ---**
Officer Miyafuji?
**[11:18] ---**
She can fly?
**[11:19] ---**
We've done what we can.
**[11:21] ---**
You can fly, but it'll stall out
if you push it too hard!
**[11:25] ---**
Got it!
**[11:26] ---**
Keep it under 2000 RPM!
**[11:29] ---**
Got it?
**[11:29] ---**
Roger!
**[11:33] ---**
Miyafuji, taking off!
**[11:39] ---**
Go!
**[11:46] ---**
She flew!
**[11:48] ---**
Captain! The bomb-type
Neuroi are coming!
**[11:51] ---**
What?
**[11:59] ---**
I won't let you through!
**[12:20] ---**
All the bomb-type Neuroi are destroyed!
**[12:23] ---**
She took them all down herself?
**[12:45] ---**
Next!
**[12:52] ---**
There's more!
**[12:53] ---**
I'm not getting anywhere!
**[12:55] ---**
The core must be somewhere...
**[12:57] ---**
The Neuroi are concentrating
their attacks on Miyafuji!
**[13:01] ---**
We'll back her up!
Switch all rounds to armor-piercing!
**[13:17] ---**
I found it!
**[13:19] ---**
The core must be down there!
**[13:25] ---**
It's no good...
**[13:26] ---**
The ice is too thick!
**[13:35] ---**
I need to break the ice!
**[13:43] ---**
The guns...
**[13:44] ---**
From the *Doge*!
**[13:50] ---**
All guns fire at full power!
**[13:55] ---**
They should be able to destroy the iceberg
and get at the Neuroi under it!
**[14:03] ---**
Yes! This'll do it!
**[14:22] ---**
That's the core!
**[14:30] ---**
But I kept the RPMs below 2000!
**[14:43] ---**
Again... The output's just not stable!
**[14:51] ---**
The *Doge!*
**[14:52] ---**
The Neuroi changed course to Antwerpen.
**[14:55] ---**
We can't catch up to it!
**[14:57] ---**
Is this the end?
**[15:02] ---**
The engine's power is still reduced...
**[15:04] ---**
And we're so close!
**[15:06] ---**
I can't get any closer!
**[15:09] ---**
I can't catch it!
**[15:14] ---**
That's...
**[15:16] ---**
Target: the mouth of the Scheldt river.
**[15:18] ---**
Right-o!
**[15:19] ---**
The right answer is "Roger!"
**[15:22] ---**
Roger!
**[15:24] ---**
Mina! Barkhorn! Hartmann!
**[15:41] ---**
It exploded?
**[15:44] ---**
Then...
**[15:50] ---**
Trude!
**[15:53] ---**
Leave it to me!
**[16:08] ---**
Hey, Miyafuji!
**[16:10] ---**
You okay, Miyafuji?!
**[16:12] ---**
Yes!
**[16:13] ---**
It's been a long time.
**[16:15] ---**
I can't believe you're having trouble
with something like this.
**[16:18] ---**
I can't believe you're here.
**[16:20] ---**
But why...?
**[16:22] ---**
We'll talk later!
**[16:23] ---**
It's coming!
**[16:26] ---**
My engine speed...
**[16:34] ---**
An anti-armor rifle!
**[16:36] ---**
Yoshika!
**[16:39] ---**
Lynne!
**[16:41] ---**
You came!
**[16:43] ---**
Yeah!
**[16:45] ---**
Come on, we're not done yet!
**[16:47] ---**
Perrine!
**[16:49] ---**
Sakamoto asked for my help.
**[16:52] ---**
I had to come.
**[16:54] ---**
Sakamoto did?
**[16:58] ---**
Hey, Shirley!
**[16:59] ---**
When we're done with the Neuroi,
let's eat some Belgica mussels!
**[17:03] ---**
Nice!
**[17:04] ---**
We can eat some mussels and have a party!
**[17:12] ---**
It split?
**[17:13] ---**
It's heading for the town!
**[17:14] ---**
Leave this to me!
**[17:16] ---**
Shirley!
**[17:17] ---**
Okay, it's yours!
**[17:19] ---**
Lucchini!
**[17:24] ---**
Nope!
**[17:30] ---**
Wow...
**[17:32] ---**
The Neuroi doesn't stand a chance!
**[17:34] ---**
Is this the power of the Witches?
**[17:38] ---**
Hey, you been waiting!
**[17:39] ---**
You're late! What have you been doing?
**[17:41] ---**
Listen, the base we were at
was the furthest from this one!
**[17:46] ---**
Look! The iceberg!
**[17:58] ---**
The core!
**[18:00] ---**
So that was what was controlling the iceberg!
**[18:02] ---**
Is it fleeing to high altitude?
**[18:08] ---**
That's a rocket.
**[18:10] ---**
Which means...
**[18:13] ---**
Eila! Sanya!
**[18:19] ---**
You won't get away!
**[18:20] ---**
Let's go. Formation Emile!
**[18:23] ---**
Roger!
**[18:28] ---**
Your unit's unstable, right?
**[18:30] ---**
Yeah. But it's fine now.
**[18:33] ---**
Stay behind me, I'll block the wind!
**[18:36] ---**
Thanks, Lynne!
**[18:40] ---**
We're in its firing range.
**[18:42] ---**
Here it comes!
**[18:47] ---**
Now!
**[19:03] ---**
There's the core! Hartmann!
**[19:15] ---**
They're so strong!
**[19:18] ---**
This is the 501st... the Strike Witches!
**[19:23] ---**
Yay!
**[19:28] ---**
Yoshika!
**[19:33] ---**
Are you okay?
**[19:36] ---**
Shizuka?
**[19:38] ---**
It's been too long, Officer Miyafuji!
**[19:41] ---**
Whew...
**[19:43] ---**
Wait! That's not good!
**[19:47] ---**
The iceberg didn't stop!
**[19:50] ---**
But we destroyed the iceberg!
**[19:52] ---**
The momentum's keeping it going!
**[19:54] ---**
It's too big to stop quickly!
**[19:57] ---**
Shatter!
**[20:06] ---**
It's no good! It's too big!
**[20:11] ---**
Out of the way, everyone!
**[20:22] ---**
Father!
**[20:24] ---**
Altia...
**[20:29] ---**
Father!
**[20:35] ---**
We defeated the Neuroi, but the iceberg
destroyed the port facilities...
**[20:40] ---**
I can't believe the Neuroi came up with
such a complex plan of attack.
**[20:45] ---**
That's a big hit to take
before our counterattack.
**[20:49] ---**
Counterattack?
**[20:51] ---**
That's right.
**[20:52] ---**
Humanity's counterattack against
the Neuroi is about to begin.
**[20:57] ---**
Our target is Berlin.
**[21:00] ---**
Berlin? In Karlsland?
**[21:03] ---**
Yup. It's its capital.
**[21:04] ---**
It's finally time!
**[21:06] ---**
You're excited.
**[21:07] ---**
Of course I am!
**[21:09] ---**
It's time to take back our home!
**[21:12] ---**
We've confirmed the presence of
a powerful Neuroi nest above Berlin.
**[21:16] ---**
The battle will be harsher
than any we've ever had.
**[21:20] ---**
Sakamoto left the unit, but Fuso
will be sending a replacement.
**[21:29] ---**
Hattori!
**[21:30] ---**
Yes!
**[21:32] ---**
Shizuka!
**[21:33] ---**
You're joining the 501st!
**[21:35] ---**
That's right.
**[21:40] ---**
Now, as of this moment, the 501st
Joint Fighter Wing is officially reformed!
**[21:49] ---**
Roger!
**[21:51] ---**
"To Be Continued"
**[23:25] ---**
I get to live with Miyafuji!
**[23:28] ---**
Yoshika's miso soup is delicious!
**[23:30] ---**
And she's cute when she's sleeping!
**[23:32] ---**
You seem close to her, Sergeant Lynette.
**[23:36] ---**
