    Ms. Sakamoto...
[00:46] ---
    Reppuzan!
[00:59] ---

    "Episode 8: Please Give Me Wings"
[02:39] ---
    Miyafuji...
[02:40] ---
    Th-The Reppuzan is an amazing technique!
[02:44] ---
    Not like this!
[02:45] ---
    What I want to master is a *Reppuzan
    *that transcends the Reppuzan...
[02:50] ---
    ...the Shin-Reppuzan.
[02:51] ---
    Shin-Reppuzan...?
[02:54] ---
    Yes. A secret technique of the Fuso Empire,
    passed down since antiquity.
[02:58] ---
    If I can master it,
[03:00] ---
    I'll be capable of destroying any
    Neuroi at all with a single blow.
[03:05] ---
    Ms. Sakamoto! Teach me the Reppuzan too!
[03:09] ---
    I want to beat the Neurois and make
    the world peaceful as fast as possible!
[03:13] ---
    No. A fledgling like you
    cannot use this technique.
[03:17] ---
    I'll try my hardest! So, please! Teach me!
[03:25] ---
    You can't do it.
[03:35] ---
    Oh, Miyafuji! What took you so long?
[03:38] ---
    Today we're having spaghetti
    di farro and vongole bianco!
[03:41] ---
    We made it ourselves!
[03:45] ---
    Oh...
[03:48] ---
    What's wrong, Yoshika?
    Are you not feeling well?
[03:51] ---
    No, I'm okay! I don't feel sick!
[03:55] ---
    Then eat!
[03:56] ---
    Even if you aren't hungry!
[03:59] ---
    You won't be able to fight
    properly in an emergency
[04:01] ---
    if you don't ingest energy!
[04:04] ---
    Y-Yes, ma'am...
[04:05] ---
    Just "energy," huh?
[04:07] ---
    Urgh. I don't wanna hear your soldier
    lectures first thing in the morning...
[04:12] ---
    Stop that, Hartmann! That's not
    what a Karlsland soldier would say!
[04:16] ---
    Here we go again...
[04:18] ---
    Listen! Unlike Britannia, there's a
    severe lack of military might here!
[04:22] ---
    Our duties here are more
    vital than ever before!
[04:25] ---
    That's right. I gotta try harder, too.
[04:28] ---
    I bet that's why Ms. Sakamoto
    won't teach me that technique.

[04:31] ---
    Because I'm unreliable.
[04:33] ---
    Yeah!
[04:34] ---
    Thank you for this meal!
[04:49] ---
    She's fast! She's faster than before!
[04:52] ---
    But I'm still faster!
[04:59] ---
    Got you!
[05:01] ---
    A hard left turn?!
[05:03] ---
    Now!
[05:04] ---
    You don't have me yet!
[05:08] ---
    She missed?! At this range?!
[05:13] ---
    What?!
[05:14] ---
    Got you!
[05:19] ---
    The match is over! Perrine wins!
[05:22] ---
    Though I think it comes as no surprise!
[05:25] ---
    That was strange... It was like
    I suddenly lost strength...

[05:30] ---
    Miyafuji!
[05:31] ---
    Yes?!
[05:32] ---
    What are you standing around for?!
    We have two more skirmishes to go!
[05:43] ---
    Match over! Perrine wins!
[05:48] ---
    I can't seem to fly well... How come?
[05:50] ---
    Three losses out of three.
    That's not like you, Yoshika...
[05:54] ---
    Hold on, Miyafuji!
[05:55] ---
    Could you please not hold back
    just because this is training?
[05:58] ---
    Or is it that you can't take me seriously?!
[06:01] ---
    No...! I'm not holding back at all!
[06:13] ---
    I see. It seemed that way
    to you, too, Perrine?
[06:16] ---
    Yes. There was definitely
    something off about Miyafuji today.
[06:20] ---
    It was like she was off her game...
[06:23] ---
    All right. I'm glad you told me.
    You're very kind, Perrine.
[06:28] ---
    Oh, no, I simply feel it's important
[06:32] ---
    to rectify any factors that
    might weaken our unit...
[06:36] ---
    I... wasn't concerned
    about Miyafuji at all...
[06:42] ---
    We crosschecked everything listed,
    but found nothing out of the ordinary.
[06:47] ---
    The magic engine's been
    given a complete overhaul.
[06:50] ---
    We even replaced the oil and used
    brand new plugs just to be sure, but...
[06:54] ---
    I see. So there's no problem
    with the Striker...
[06:57] ---
    Understood. Thank you.
[07:00] ---
    Meaning the problem lies
    with Miyafuji herself...?

[07:06] ---
    Okay. You can put your clothes back on.
[07:09] ---
    Okay.
[07:11] ---
    Looks like she's perfectly healthy.
[07:14] ---
    I see...
[07:15] ---
    What's wrong? Why the
    sudden medical checkup?
[07:18] ---
    Oh, it's the job of a commanding officer
[07:20] ---
    to keep tabs on the health
    of her subordinates.
[07:24] ---
    But there's nothing wrong with me, right?
[07:26] ---
    That's right. There's nothing
    wrong at all. You're in ideal health!
[07:32] ---
    Actually, the one thing I take pride
    in is that I've never caught a cold!
[07:37] ---
    Hey. What are you doing there?
[07:40] ---
    W-We're sorry...
[07:44] ---
    Oh! Lynne! Perrine!
[07:47] ---
    Is there something wrong with you, Yoshika?
[07:49] ---
    No, it's just a checkup. I'm perfectly fine!
[07:53] ---
    Thank goodness...
[07:55] ---
    Sheesh! As a Witch, maintaining
    good health is a vital duty!
[08:00] ---
    I really am perfectly fine.
[08:02] ---
    If you're fine, then that's
    all the more worrying.
[08:05] ---
    Barkhorn! Where were you?!
[08:07] ---
    We know for sure that you can't fly properly.
[08:10] ---
    And, given that we don't know the cause,
    we can't send you into combat!
[08:14] ---
    Really? You can't fly right, Yoshika?
[08:18] ---
    Until the cause is clear, you are
    ordered to remain at base on standby!
[08:21] ---
    No! I can fly!
[08:23] ---
    That is an order!
[08:26] ---
    An order...?
[08:27] ---
    Yes. It'd be for the best.
[08:30] ---
    You can't be serious!
[08:31] ---
    Yoshika...
[08:46] ---
    Who's there?
[08:47] ---
    Oh? Yoshika?
[08:49] ---
    Miyafuji? What are you doing?
[08:52] ---
    Huh?!
[08:55] ---
    Oh? You were training with a broom?
[08:57] ---
    Come to think of it, there was
    an old lady in my neighborhood
[09:00] ---
    who flew on a broom, too.
[09:01] ---
    But why are you doing it at this hour?
[09:05] ---
    Say, have either of you ever
    suddenly lost the ability to fly?
[09:10] ---
    You can't fly anymore, Yoshika?
[09:13] ---
    What?! Is that true, Miyafuji?!
[09:15] ---
    N-No! I can still fly, but...
[09:17] ---
    Sheesh. Don't scare us like that.
[09:21] ---
    Who's there?!
[09:24] ---
    Oww...
[09:26] ---
    What on earth was that for?!
[09:29] ---
    Perrine!
[09:31] ---
    I-I'm not here for anything special.
    I just need to use the restroom...
[09:35] ---
    You have a lump...
[09:39] ---
    It's your fault!
[09:42] ---
    Oh, it's all better!
[09:44] ---
    It looks like your magic energy is fine...
[09:47] ---
    That's great, Miyafuji!
[09:49] ---
    Listen, you! Could you please not
    experiment on other people's heads?!
[09:53] ---
    Why can't I fly right, then...?
[09:56] ---
    Maybe some rest will help.
[09:58] ---
    Yeah. I bet it's just the exhaustion.
[10:02] ---
    Who knows? Maybe you'll
    be all better in the morning!
[10:05] ---
    In any case, get some sleep for today.
[10:07] ---
    Yeah...
[10:23] ---
    Fly!
[10:34] ---
    No...
[10:36] ---
    Why... Why can't I fly?
[10:39] ---
    I can't protect anyone like this...
[10:46] ---
    Lynne...
[10:56] ---
    Looks like the broom broke...
[11:01] ---
    The Adriatic Sea sure is pretty...
[11:05] ---
    The two of us looked out at the sea
    like this before. Do you remember?
[11:10] ---
    Yeah...
[11:13] ---
    Want to fix the broom together?
[11:16] ---
    Yeah... Thanks...
[11:35] ---
    According to Allied HQ, a Fuso fleet
    is scheduled to arrive tomorrow--
[11:38] ---
    with the battleship Yamato as the flagship--
[11:40] ---
    in order to reinforce our military
    presence in the Romagna region.
[11:44] ---
    At last it's arriving!
[11:46] ---
    Huh? The Yamato?
[11:47] ---
    You know it, Yoshika?
[11:49] ---
    Yeah. I saw it in a port
    in Fuso. It's really big!
[11:54] ---
    Wow...
[11:58] ---
    Yes.
[12:00] ---
    What?! An accident on the Yamato?!
[12:02] ---
    What?!
[12:05] ---
    An accident...
[12:06] ---
    Yes. I understand!
[12:09] ---
    They request assistance.
[12:11] ---
    There was an explosion in
    the Yamato's sick bay just now.
[12:14] ---
    Many were injured.
[12:15] ---
    They want us to dispatch doctors immediately.
[12:18] ---
    All right! We'll send them over on the H8K!
[12:21] ---
    Please let me go, too!
[12:23] ---
    Even if I can't fight, I
    can still heal and fly!
[12:26] ---
    I'm going with her! I can wrap bandages!
[12:29] ---
    Girls...
[12:31] ---
    I knew they would say that.
[12:34] ---
    They would arrive much
    sooner than the airship.
[12:37] ---
    All right. Miyafuji and Lynne,
    head to the Yamato on the double.
[12:43] ---
    Understood!
[12:48] ---
    Yoshika! Are you all right?
[12:50] ---
    Y-Yeah!
[12:54] ---
    What do I do? I can't fly right.
    It's getting worse and worse...

[12:59] ---
    "Fuso Empire Allied Fleet"
[13:00] ---
    It's the Yamato!
[13:01] ---
    lt's so big!
[13:01] ---
    "Flagship Yamato"
[13:19] ---
    Are you Ms. Miyafuji and Ms. Lynne?!
[13:21] ---
    Yes!
[13:22] ---
    This is the most critical patient!
[13:24] ---
    There's nothing more we can do
    with the equipment we have here...!
[13:29] ---
    He's really hurt...
[13:31] ---
    Understood!
[13:36] ---
    The bleeding has stopped!
[13:38] ---
    Okay! Bandage him up, Lynne!
[13:40] ---
    Right!
[13:41] ---
    Who's next?
[13:48] ---
    Wow. So this is the power of
    Ms. Miyafuji's healing magic

[13:51] ---
    that I'd heard so much about...
[13:54] ---
    Are you okay, Yoshika? You've
    treated over ten people already...
[13:58] ---
    Yeah, there's no problem
    at all. I'll be fine.
[14:02] ---
    There! That should do it!
[14:05] ---
    Who's next?
[14:06] ---
    No one. That was the last of the injured.
[14:09] ---
    The last?
[14:10] ---
    Yes. Thanks to you two,
    everyone made it out alive.
[14:14] ---
    Thank you very much!
[14:17] ---
    Isn't that great, Yoshika?!
[14:19] ---
    Yeah!
[14:21] ---
    Whew, that's great. Everyone survived.
[14:24] ---
    It's a miracle, after an accident like that.
[14:27] ---
    Ms. Miyafuji has saved us yet again.
[14:31] ---
    How shall we show our gratitude this time?
[14:35] ---
    It was a doll of a Fuso soldier
    last time, as I recall.
[14:41] ---
    Report from the radar room!
[14:43] ---
    Large Neuroi detected at
    bearing 340º, distance 60,000!
[14:47] ---
    That can't be! This is
    supposed to be a safe zone!
[14:50] ---
    Sir!
[14:53] ---
    All ships, prepare for battle at once!
[14:57] ---
    A Neuroi?!
[14:58] ---
    Let's go, Lynne!
[14:59] ---
    Yeah!
[15:10] ---
    A Neuroi has appeared!
[15:12] ---
    Location?!
[15:13] ---
    Grid D-15! Course bearing 165º!
[15:16] ---
    Wait! Those waters are where...!
[15:19] ---
    The Yamato!
[15:20] ---
    That can't be! It's 500 kilometers
    from the Neuroi hive over Venezia!
[15:25] ---
    Yes. There's never been a case
    of one appearing so far away!
[15:28] ---
    But it's really there. See?
[15:31] ---
    It's heading for the Fuso fleet!
[15:33] ---
    Damn!
[15:54] ---
    All ships, prepare for anti-aircraft
    combat! Ready main cannons!
[15:58] ---
    Ready main cannons!
[16:00] ---
    Target, 70 degrees right! 3-0-0!
[16:03] ---
    Starboard!
[16:05] ---
    Starboard!
[16:11] ---
    All right, Neuroi.
[16:12] ---
    Now we'll show you the might
    of the Yamato's 46-cm cannons!
[16:16] ---
    Range, 2-5-0!
[16:18] ---
    Ready to fire!
[16:20] ---
    Commence fire!
[16:26] ---
    How did you like that?!
    That's the power of the Yamato!
[16:29] ---
    Ready next volley!
[16:32] ---
    Are you okay, Lynne?
[16:34] ---
    Yeah... What was that sound?
[16:36] ---
    Yeah, it was really loud. Can you stand?
[16:39] ---
    I'm fine...
[16:39] ---
    Let's hurry!
[16:41] ---
    Yeah!
[16:43] ---
    Raise by two! Right adjust by two!
    Armor-piercing shells!
[16:49] ---
    Damn! Such power!
[16:55] ---
    Impacting... now!
[16:58] ---
    Did we get it?!
[17:04] ---
    The Takao has been hit!
[17:05] ---
    Damn! It regenerates too quickly!
[17:17] ---
    Huh?
[17:23] ---
    Why? Why won't it work?
[17:28] ---
    Yoshika?
[17:29] ---
    J-Just a minute...!
[17:39] ---
    Please! Work...!
[17:44] ---
    Heavy damage to the cruiser ship Takao!
[17:50] ---
    Yoshika. I'm going to go on ahead, okay?
[17:55] ---
    Lynne!
[17:56] ---
    Wait! Wait for me!
[17:59] ---
    Lynne!
[18:04] ---
    This is bad! The Takao is dead in the water!
[18:06] ---
    It's a sitting duck out there!
[18:09] ---
    It's too late! It's going to be hit!
[18:12] ---
    Lynette!
[18:13] ---
    Can you hear me, everyone?!
[18:15] ---
    Please escape while I'm blocking the attack!
[18:20] ---
    What are you saying, Lynne...?!
[18:22] ---
    I can't buy much time! Please hurry!
[18:26] ---
    The Yamato is vital to the coming
    operation. We cannot lose her here...
[18:32] ---
    Full power to the engines! Hard aport!
    All ships, withdraw immediately!
[18:37] ---
    Hard aport!
[18:43] ---
    Lynne!
[18:50] ---
    Please...! Work!
[18:52] ---
    Please! Let me fly!
[19:02] ---
    Thank goodness...
[19:07] ---
    It has no effect?!
[19:11] ---
    Fleet appears to have altered course!
    It's moving away from the Neuroi!
[19:15] ---
    They managed to escape?!
    How on earth did they do that?!
[19:19] ---
    Actually... it looks like
    Lynne is acting as a decoy...
[19:22] ---
    What?!
[19:25] ---
    Why...?
[19:27] ---
    Why won't you let me fly?
[19:35] ---
    Yoshika.
[19:36] ---
    You have a power just as great as
    your mother's and grandmother's.
[19:41] ---
    Grow up to be a wonderful girl
    who can protect everyone with it.
[19:45] ---
    I will! I promise!
[19:51] ---
    I'm sorry, Dad... I can't keep my promise...
[19:55] ---
    I can't fly anymore! I can't
    protect anyone anymore...!
[20:01] ---
    Lynne...
[20:07] ---
    Stop crying, Yoshika.
    You haven't lost the ability to fly.
[20:13] ---
    These are your new wings!
[20:32] ---
    A Striker Unit...
[20:34] ---
    Distance from Neuroi,
    approximately three nautical miles!
[20:37] ---
    Now out of firing range!
[20:38] ---
    I see.
[20:40] ---
    Even though it's to protect the Yamato,
[20:43] ---
    we're still withdrawing from the
    battle line and leaving a Witch behind...
[20:46] ---
    As a soldier of the Fuso Empire,
    I am deeply ashamed!
[20:52] ---
    Captain! The aft hangar is opening!
[20:54] ---
    What?!
[21:00] ---
    Hold on, Lynne!
[21:02] ---
    I'm coming!
[21:04] ---
    Th-That's the prototype unit...!
[21:06] ---
    That's dangerous, Ms. Miyafuji!
    That unit hasn't been test-flown yet!
[21:17] ---
    Takeoff!
[21:29] ---
    Lynne!
[21:38] ---
    I hope Yoshika and the others
    managed to get away...

[21:48] ---
    My shield is almost...
[21:56] ---
    Yoshika...
[22:02] ---
    Lynne!
[22:11] ---
    Y-Yoshika...
[22:13] ---
    Lynne! I'm sorry I'm late!
[22:16] ---
    Are you okay? Can you fly?
[22:18] ---
    Yeah...
[22:20] ---
    How dare you...
[22:22] ---
    How dare you do this to Lynne?!
[22:49] ---
    Yoshika!
[22:52] ---
    Lynne!
[22:54] ---
    You did it! You did it, Yoshika!
[22:56] ---
    Yeah!
[22:59] ---
    Thank you, Dad...
[23:03] ---
    That light... Are those Neuroi fragments?!
[23:05] ---
    Yes. It appears the Neuroi was destroyed.
[23:08] ---
    Major! What about them?!
[23:10] ---
    Don't worry. They're both fine.
[23:14] ---
    That unit...!
[23:16] ---
    The Shinden! They completed it?!
[23:22] ---
    So this is Fuso's newest unit?
[23:24] ---
    The J7W1 Shinden.
[23:27] ---
    I'd heard it had suffered
    development setbacks,
[23:29] ---
    but it sounds like Dr. Miyafuji's
    letter helped it reach completion.
[23:33] ---
    The professor's letter?
[23:34] ---
    That almost makes it sound like it
    was made specifically for Miyafuji.
[23:37] ---
    So, where are the two heroes, anyway?
[23:40] ---
    They went to sleep the moment they returned.
[23:42] ---
    I can't blame them. They used every
    last bit of magic energy they had.
[23:46] ---
    This is amazing, though.
[23:48] ---
    Miyafuji's old Striker couldn't
    handle her magic energy
[23:52] ---
    because she'd grown so much stronger, right?
[23:54] ---
    Yes. It appears the limiter kicked in
    to prevent damage to the magic engine.
[24:00] ---
    But this Shinden will be able
    to use Miyafuji's full power.
[24:04] ---
    Perhaps the fledgling has grown up?
