[00:23] ---
    Just a little more work until this
    elementary school is completed.
[00:28] ---
    Upsy-daisy!
[00:29] ---
    The village's restoration
    has come a long way!
[00:33] ---
    I'm so glad...
[00:41] ---
    Perrine...
[00:43] ---
    What's the matter?
[00:44] ---
    Well, you see, my friends
    can't come to the school!
[00:48] ---
    Oh, my. Why can't they?
[00:50] ---
    Come this way!
[00:51] ---
    Huh?
[00:58] ---
    There...
[01:05] ---
    The bridge...
[01:08] ---
    Yeah... That's why my friends
    can't come to the school...
[01:18] ---
    Someday, someday I'll be able to fly
[01:24] ---
    through the promised skies with you again
[01:34] ---
    Some nights are so frustrating
    and painful that you can't sleep
[01:40] ---
    They happen to everyone
[01:45] ---
    Whenever you feel that way,
    call me-- I'll rush right over
[01:51] ---
    at the speed of sound
[01:56] ---
    Even if it's fate, I'll struggle against it
[02:01] ---
    Because, see, you always give me a smile
[02:06] ---
    Our dreams are still far from coming true
[02:11] ---
    but together we can make it happen,
    with our unbeatable courage
[02:18] ---
    Your tears sparkle and shine
[02:22] ---
    But if you use the magic of your smile
    to change them into wings
[02:29] ---
    I'm sure you'll be able to flutter them
[02:35] ---
    So go over the rainbow and further beyond
[02:46] ---
    "Episode 9: The Bridge to Tomorrow"
[02:57] ---
    Neuroi located!
[02:59] ---
    Everyone prepare for battle!
[03:01] ---
    Understood!
[03:09] ---
    She's climbing so quickly!
[03:24] ---
    You're rushing too far ahead!
[03:30] ---
    Got it!
[03:37] ---
    Th-The bridge!
[03:39] ---
    The damage is minimal! Don't break formation!
[03:41] ---
    Here comes the next volley!
[03:44] ---
    Perrine!
[03:45] ---
    How dare you damage the bridge?!
[03:51] ---
    Perrine is incredible...!
[03:54] ---
    Now's our chance! All units, attack!
[03:56] ---
    Understood!
[04:12] ---
    There's the core!
[04:14] ---
    How dare you damage the bridge?!
[04:24] ---
    Perrine!
[04:26] ---
    You did it!
[04:36] ---
    Great work, everyone!
[04:39] ---
    You all did well!
[04:41] ---
    It appears you've grown
    accustomed to the Shinden, Miyafuji.
[04:43] ---
    Yes! I want to train with it even
    more until I've fully mastered it!
[04:48] ---
    Excellent! That's the spirit!
[04:50] ---
    Perrine!
[04:53] ---
    Perrine?
[04:54] ---
    Y-Yes, ma'am...!
[04:56] ---
    You fought very well today!
[04:58] ---
    Yes, ma'am... Thank you...
[05:03] ---
    Something seems off about her.
[05:04] ---
    Yeah.
[05:06] ---
    What do you mean?
[05:07] ---
    It's just that whenever the major
    praises her, Perrine is usually like...
[05:11] ---
    "Oh, Major! That's oh so very true!"
[05:15] ---
    "Please praise me even more!"
[05:19] ---
    You know?
[05:20] ---
    D-Do you think so?
[05:28] ---
    Of the many heirlooms passed
    down in the Clostermann family,
[05:34] ---
    this rapier is all that we have left.
[05:38] ---
    But, if I sell this...
[05:40] ---
    ...will it be enough money
    to rebuild that bridge?
[05:51] ---
    Father... Mother... What should I do?
[05:59] ---
    Perrine!
[06:04] ---
    P-Perrine?!
[06:06] ---
    Are you okay?!
[06:08] ---
    Barging into someone's room
    shouting... What do you want?!
[06:12] ---
    U-Umm, the beach...
[06:15] ---
    We're all going to the beach tomorrow!
[06:17] ---
    The b-beach?
[06:22] ---
    Yahoo!
[06:25] ---
    Hurry up!
[06:27] ---
    Come on! Let's go!
[06:28] ---
    H-Hold on...!
[06:30] ---
    At least do some warm-up exercises!
[06:35] ---
    --Yay! Yay!
[06:36] ---
    --Don't splash me! It'll make...!
[06:40] ---
    Listen up! You must not hold back
    just because it's a training exercise!
[06:45] ---
    It's been a while, so be careful!
[06:48] ---
    Oh, no. Not this training...
[06:50] ---
    We're doing this again?
[06:52] ---
    Why do I have to do this too?
[06:54] ---
    Just dive in!
[07:04] ---
    This is such lovely weather!
[07:06] ---
    It certainly is.
[07:11] ---
    Oh! Impressive, Perrine!
[07:13] ---
    Y-Yes, ma'am! I owe it all
    to your regular guidance!
[07:17] ---
    It is important to always be prepared--
[07:20] ---
    Stop...! What are you...?!
[07:31] ---
    This exercise is over!
[07:34] ---
    I'm hungry...
[07:37] ---
    I'm sleepy...
[07:43] ---
    That was exhausting...
[07:44] ---
    Yeah. It had been a while, too.
[07:47] ---
    Thank goodness you were there, Perrine!
[07:49] ---
    I nearly drowned as a result, too!
[07:53] ---
    Honestly!
[07:57] ---
    That's a magnificent bridge...
[07:59] ---
    Perrine?
[08:06] ---
    Oh! Lucchini!
[08:08] ---
    Whatcha doing?
[08:10] ---
    Guess what! Guess what!
    I found a box underwater!
[08:13] ---
    Huh? A box?
[08:15] ---
    Yeah! It's real big and has a lock!
    I think it might be a treasure chest!
[08:20] ---
    What?!
[08:21] ---
    A treasure chest?!
[08:22] ---
    A treasure chest, you say?!
[08:24] ---
    Th-The Adriatic Sea has always
    been an active area for trade.
[08:29] ---
    I wouldn't be surprised if there were a
    treasure chest or two on the sea floor...
[08:34] ---
    Oh, wow! This sounds neat, Lynne!
    Let's check it out!
[08:38] ---
    Yeah!
[08:39] ---
    Hold on!
[08:41] ---
    You honestly think there's a treasure
    chest down there? That's nonsense!
[08:44] ---
    You just said there is!
[08:46] ---
    I did not! I only said it's a possibility...
[09:10] ---
    I can't... go on...
[09:13] ---
    Lynne! Lucchini!
[09:15] ---
    I can't go on either...!
[09:17] ---
    Hey! Wait!
[09:22] ---
    I'm at my limit...! B-But...
[09:24] ---
    ...with this treasure...
[09:31] ---
    ...the bridge can be...!
[09:34] ---
    Tonnerre!
[09:48] ---
    Perrine's been down there a long time...
[09:50] ---
    I hope she's okay...
[09:51] ---
    Hopefully she didn't get eaten...
[09:53] ---
    Huh?!
[09:54] ---
    Well, there are all kinds of dangerous
    creatures in the sea, y'know?
[09:58] ---
    Huh?!
[09:59] ---
    You know, like giant squids!
    Giant sea cucumbers! Giant starfish!
[10:05] ---
    We have to find her quick!
[10:07] ---
    Yeah!
[10:11] ---
    A Neuroi!
[10:15] ---
    Who are you...
[10:17] ---
    ...calling... a Neuroi?!
[10:19] ---
    Oh, Perrine.
[10:24] ---
    You wanted the treasure that badly?!
[10:27] ---
    I-I got... the treasure...
[10:30] ---
    Ahh!
[10:31] ---
    Perrine!
[10:32] ---
    Perrine! Perrine!
[10:37] ---
    Did you hear something?
[10:39] ---
    No...
[10:53] ---
    I apologize for the wait, everyone!
[10:55] ---
    Here it is! The bridge has been finished!
[10:59] ---
    --Yay!
[10:59] ---
    --Hurray!
[11:00] ---
    Thank you so much, Perrine!
[11:07] ---
    Perrine!
[11:09] ---
    Perrine!
[11:13] ---
    Perrine!
[11:14] ---
    Thank goodness!
[11:16] ---
    I wonder what's inside!
[11:21] ---
    This is a piece o' cake for me!
[11:24] ---
    What do you think you're doing,
    Ensign Francesca Lucchini?
[11:27] ---
    I've already decided how
    that treasure will be used.
[11:32] ---
    Oh! It's open!
[11:34] ---
    Huh?!
[11:38] ---
    Huh?
[11:42] ---
    It's another chest...
[11:44] ---
    Yeah...
[11:45] ---
    Th-That just goes to show how valuable it is!
[11:49] ---
    I just bet this chest is filled
    with silver, gold, and jewels!
[11:56] ---
    Just how many are there?
[11:58] ---
    Every time we open one
    chest, there's another...
[12:01] ---
    When do we get the treasure?!
[12:02] ---
    Will you please be quiet?!
[12:05] ---
    This has to be the last 
    one! I'm opening it now!
[12:08] ---
    Right!
[12:11] ---
    It's empty...
[12:13] ---
    We were tricked!
[12:16] ---
    That can't be...
[12:18] ---
    No treasure? Then how are
    the kids going to...?
[12:24] ---
    P-Perrine!
[12:26] ---
    Wh-What's wrong?
[12:30] ---
    All right! It's finished!
[12:32] ---
    Oh. You pushed yourself so hard
    so you could fix the bridge...
[12:37] ---
    So that's why you seemed odd
    after coming back from Gallia?
[12:41] ---
    Money won't be that easy
    to come by after all...
[12:45] ---
    I guess I have no choice but to
    sell my family's heirloom rapier...
[12:49] ---
    Perrine...
[12:50] ---
    Huh?! This makes a weird sound!
[12:52] ---
    A sound?
[12:53] ---
    Yeah.
[12:54] ---
    It makes a sound even though it's empty.
[12:57] ---
    See?
[12:59] ---
    Oh! Could it be?! Let me see it!
[13:05] ---
    There's a place in my neighborhood
    that makes things like these.
[13:09] ---
    Got it!
[13:10] ---
    What is this...?!
[13:13] ---
    It looks like a map...
[13:15] ---
    Could it be?!
[13:17] ---
    It's a treasure map!
[13:20] ---
    Here it is!
[13:21] ---
    It's just as the map says!
[13:23] ---
    Wow, Perrine! You can read this writing!
[13:26] ---
    Wow, you can read Latin!
[13:28] ---
    Every daughter of a decent
    family is well versed in Latin!
[13:32] ---
    Wow!
[13:33] ---
    I'm so glad you're cheerful again, Perrine!
[13:36] ---
    Wh-What nonsense! Let's get going!
[13:41] ---
    I'm right behind you!
[13:45] ---
    Let's go, Lynne!
[13:46] ---
    Yeah!
[14:02] ---
    Oh!
[14:03] ---
    Wow!
[14:04] ---
    It's so pretty!
[14:06] ---
    It's like a starry sky!
[14:07] ---
    The sunlight coming through the
    entrance is reflecting off the water!
[14:12] ---
    This is amazing!
[14:20] ---
    There are paths over there!
[14:25] ---
    Which way?
[14:26] ---
    They both seem to lead further inside, but...
[14:29] ---
    This way!
[14:30] ---
    You sure?!
[14:32] ---
    If you don't want to get separated,
    be quiet and follow me!
[14:34] ---
    Yeah, yeah...
[14:36] ---
    Lucchini is missing?!
[14:37] ---
    Yeah. She went over to the rocks
    to catch fish or something
[14:40] ---
    but hasn't come back.
[14:43] ---
    Come to think of it, Miyafuji's group
    went there after their training, too...
[14:48] ---
    Let's check it out!
[14:50] ---
    It's so pretty!
[14:52] ---
    Wow, the moss on the wall is glowing!
[14:55] ---
    Are you all right? Can you see the map?
[14:57] ---
    Try your best, Perrine! You're the
    only one of us who can read the map!
[15:02] ---
    You can do it!
[15:05] ---
    I got it! It says we'll be safe
    if we continue straight ahead!
[15:10] ---
    Straight ahead?
[15:12] ---
    Yes! Okay, let's go!
[15:16] ---
    Perrine!
[15:18] ---
    A pitfall!
[15:20] ---
    I'm falling...!
[15:22] ---
    Are you okay, Perrine?!
[15:24] ---
    It's... not safe.
[15:28] ---
    Well?
[15:29] ---
    Someone was just walking here.
    They must've gone further in.
[15:34] ---
    Which way, though?
[15:36] ---
    Shall we split up?
[15:37] ---
    Splitting up would be dangerous.
[15:40] ---
    Let's go right.
[15:42] ---
    Sheesh! What a pain this is...
[15:44] ---
    But this is fun! It's like we're explorers!
[15:47] ---
    This isn't a game!
[15:49] ---
    This cave appears to be man-made...
[15:51] ---
    Ancient Witch ruins used to
    stand where our base is now.
[15:56] ---
    Perhaps this cave is a part of that.
[15:59] ---
    Oh?
[16:02] ---
    What an impressive-looking jar!
[16:05] ---
    So this is the work of
    our early predecessors...
[16:08] ---
    It's superb!
[16:09] ---
    It really is...
[16:11] ---
    Who cares about that...?
[16:17] ---
    Look out!
[16:20] ---
    Major!
[16:21] ---
    Major!
[16:22] ---
    Wh-What is this?!
[16:25] ---
    Mio!
[16:25] ---
    Mio!
[16:27] ---
    Major!
[16:34] ---
    You did it!
[16:35] ---
    Mio! Are you all right, Mio?!
[16:36] ---
    Say something! Mio!
[16:38] ---
    Hold on!
[16:40] ---
    What is this smell?!
[16:43] ---
    Oh? This isn't blood...
[16:46] ---
    Don't tell me it's...
[16:47] ---
    Yeah.
[16:48] ---
    It's wine.
[16:49] ---
    Huh? M-Mio?
[16:52] ---
    Huzzah!
[16:54] ---
    Huh?!
[16:56] ---
    Umm, Mio... I mean, Major... Are you okay?
[17:01] ---
    Of course... I'b otay...!
[17:09] ---
    M-Major?
[17:11] ---
    Wh-Wh-Wha...
[17:15] ---
    Oh! She's running away!
[17:17] ---
    --Huzzah!
[17:18] ---
    --Wait, Major!
[17:19] ---
    Wh-What's going on?
[17:21] ---
    What do we do, Mina?!
[17:23] ---
    Mina?
[17:26] ---
    Mina's gone bye-bye...
[17:27] ---
    O-Oh...
[17:29] ---
    She's in no condition to lead us now...
[17:36] ---
    What is that creepy laughter?!
[17:38] ---
    I-I don't know!
[17:40] ---
    Everyone!
[17:41] ---
    Hide!
[17:45] ---
    D-Did you see that?
[17:46] ---
    Yeah. Was it a person?
[17:47] ---
    Don't tell me it was an
    ancient evil spirit...!
[17:49] ---
    Evil spirit?!
[17:51] ---
    Let's go home!
[17:52] ---
    I agree, Perrine!
[17:55] ---
    No! I am continuing on!
[17:58] ---
    I'm coming, treasure!
[18:00] ---
    Perrine!
[18:01] ---
    Wait!
[18:02] ---
    Don't leave me behind!
[18:07] ---
    Come on, how much further is it?
[18:10] ---
    Hang in there, Lucchini!
[18:12] ---
    Just a little further!
    I'm certain it's beyond this light...!
[18:15] ---
    Really?!
[18:21] ---
    Wow! This place is so big!
[18:23] ---
    Is this the treasure room on the map?
[18:25] ---
    No question about it!
    We've finally reached it!
[18:30] ---
    What a big statue... It's as big as
    the giant Buddha statue in Kamakura!
[18:34] ---
    But it seems kinda scary, too...
[18:37] ---
    There! Beyond the statue!
[18:41] ---
    That's where the treasure must lie!
[18:44] ---
    Let's go!
[18:46] ---
    Oh! Cool!
[18:50] ---
    Where is it? Where's the treasure?
[18:53] ---
    No, I mean the children's bridge...!
[18:57] ---
    Tadah! Whadya think? Am I cool?
[19:01] ---
    Wow, that really suits you!
[19:02] ---
    You think?
[19:03] ---
    You look cool, Lucchini!
[19:08] ---
    Maybe I'll keep these!
[19:14] ---
    Th-The statue!
[19:16] ---
    Run, Perrine!
[19:18] ---
    No!
[19:20] ---
    I can't give up until the bridge is built!
[19:24] ---
    But I'm at a distinct
    disadvantage unarmed like this...
[19:31] ---
    What do I do...?!
[19:33] ---
    Perrine!
[19:37] ---
    Father! Mother! People of Gallia!
[19:41] ---
    I won't be beaten!
[19:51] ---
    Tonnerre!
[19:54] ---
    Perrine!
[20:04] ---
    Wow!
[20:05] ---
    You did it! You beat it!
[20:07] ---
    You're amazing, Perrine!
[20:10] ---
    There's a door...
[20:13] ---
    The treasure...!
[20:19] ---
    This is the treasure room...
[20:22] ---
    Herbs?
[20:24] ---
    Cloves and bay leaves...
[20:26] ---
    Oregano, saffron... and this is pepper!
[20:31] ---
    Don't tell me this is the treasure?!
[20:37] ---
    Perrine!
[20:39] ---
    Wh-Wh-What are *you
    *doing here, Major Sakamoto?!
[20:41] ---
    Are you crying, Perrine?
[20:45] ---
    I can't help it...
[20:46] ---
    I can't believe this is the
    treasure I was looking for...
[20:50] ---
    They're all just spices...
[20:53] ---
    These would've been worth
    a lot in the old days,
[20:56] ---
    but they're all easy to come by now...
[20:59] ---
    This won't help the Gallia
    Restoration Fund one bit...!
[21:04] ---
    Don't cry, Perrine. Your
    feelings are what count.
[21:08] ---
    Your feelings for Gallia are the
    most important treasure of all.
[21:14] ---
    Major...
[21:17] ---
    Oh! There's Lucchini!
[21:20] ---
    And Miyafuji and Lynne!
[21:21] ---
    All right! Come on, Hartmann!
[21:23] ---
    S-So heavy...
[21:25] ---
    Hey! What were you doing?!
[21:27] ---
    Oh! Shirley!
[21:28] ---
    You had us worried!
[21:33] ---
    Wanna head back?
[21:35] ---
    Yeah...
[21:36] ---
    I think they were ancient ruins,
[21:38] ---
    and the Witches' magic spells to
    protect the treasure were still in place.
[21:44] ---
    And maybe that's why it
    attacked you, Perrine...
[21:46] ---
    Sheesh! What a nuisance that was!
[21:49] ---
    Here, Perrine! A letter arrived for you!
[21:53] ---
    Oh? It's from Gallia...
[21:56] ---
    This is...!
[21:57] ---
    The bridge!
[21:58] ---
    Everyone must've helped build it!
[22:01] ---
    Everyone worked together 
    to build the bridge...
[22:05] ---
    Perhaps this is what true 
    restoration is like.
[22:08] ---
    I'm so glad...
[22:09] ---
    That's great, Perrine!
[22:12] ---
    Yes. I need to help defeat the
    Neurois as quickly as possible
[22:15] ---
    and return to Gallia!
[22:17] ---
    I wanna go, too!
[22:18] ---
    Yeah! Let's all go!
[22:20] ---
    In that case, I'll be kind enough
    to at least show you around!
[22:26] ---
    Thanks, Perrine!
[22:32] ---
    My skin feels burned...
[22:34] ---
    I can't put on my pants...
[22:36] ---
    I see. This base is full of mysteries.
[22:40] ---
    Come to think of it,
    where's the lieutenant colonel?
[22:42] ---
    Huh?!
[22:51] ---
    "To Be Continued"
[22:55] ---
    Even in wide-open skies where
    being alone might make you cry
[23:00] ---
    I won't run away, I'll stand up to it head-on
[23:03] ---
    Together with my friends
[23:06] ---
    Over Sky
[23:18] ---
    If you've felt wind in the palms
    of your hands, you'll be all right
[23:26] ---
    Let's have faith and jump
[23:30] ---
    With just one hop we can reach
    the clouds floating in the distance
[23:35] ---
    I never imagined how exhilarating it was
[23:41] ---
    We're going to protect everyone's future
    using all the courage we have
[23:49] ---
    Now hold tight and take flight
[23:54] ---
    Even in spacious skies where
    being alone might make you cry
[23:59] ---
    As long as you have friends,
    you can smile-- see, it isn't a miracle
[24:05] ---
    I promised and I made up my mind
[24:10] ---
    So I won't run, I'll stand up to it head-on
[24:13] ---
    For an even more wonderful world
[24:19] ---
    Over Sky
[24:26] ---
    Hey, Hartmann! How many
    aircraft have you shot down?
[24:28] ---
    One, two, three... I dunno!
[24:31] ---
    On the next Strike Witches 2: "500 Overs."
[24:33] ---
    "Episode 10: 500 Overs."
[24:36] ---
    So how many?
