**[00:41] ---**
Thank you for always being so helpful!
**[00:44] ---**
I made some sweets. Please have some!
**[00:52] ---**
U-Umm, these are traditional Fuso sweets...
**[00:57] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[00:58] ---**
Commander Mina has forbidden unnecessary
conversation with the Witches.
**[01:04] ---**
Huh?

"Episode 8: I Won't Forget You"
**[02:42] ---**
Wow! It's so windy today!
**[02:45] ---**
Yeah. But I bet it'll make
the laundry dry fast!
**[02:51] ---**
Say, Lyn. I went to the
hangar earlier, but...
**[02:58] ---**
Oh? That happened?
**[03:01] ---**
Why did Commander Mina make that rule?
**[03:05] ---**
Do you know?
**[03:06] ---**
I knew she gave those orders,
**[03:09] ---**
but I never paid it much thought.
**[03:11] ---**
Huh?! There's definitely something
strange about those orders!
**[03:15] ---**
Too strange!
**[03:16] ---**
Don't you think so too, Lyn?
**[03:18] ---**
Huh?
**[03:20] ---**
I've hardly ever talked to men
before, except for my brothers.
**[03:26] ---**
What about school?
**[03:28] ---**
I was always at girls-only schools.
**[03:31] ---**
Really?
**[03:32] ---**
Yeah. Sorry.
**[03:34] ---**
No, it's okay!
**[03:37] ---**
Look! It's the Akagi!
**[03:40] ---**
Akagi?
**[03:42] ---**
Yeah, it's the ship I took here!
**[03:44] ---**
I heard they were repairing it.
**[03:46] ---**
I wonder if it's fixed...
**[03:48] ---**
There she is! Yoshika!
**[03:51] ---**
Commander Mina wants to see you!
**[03:53] ---**
Okay!
**[03:55] ---**
I wonder what for...
**[04:00] ---**
Pardon my intrusion.
**[04:02] ---**
Ms. Miyafuji! I was hoping to see you!
**[04:06] ---**
This is the captain of the Akagi.
**[04:08] ---**
He insisted on seeing you.
**[04:11] ---**
I'm Sugita. I've come to thank
you on behalf of my crew.
**[04:16] ---**
Thank?
**[04:17] ---**
Thanks to you, the European fleet
avoided losing any important ships,
**[04:21] ---**
and more than anything, you saved many lives.
**[04:24] ---**
We are truly grateful to you.
**[04:27] ---**
No, I didn't do anything.
**[04:30] ---**
It was Ms. Sakamoto and the others who...
**[04:33] ---**
No, it's true that we might've been
wiped out had you not been there.
**[04:38] ---**
It's okay to be proud of yourself, Miyafuji!
**[04:41] ---**
Really?
**[04:45] ---**
After discussing it, the crew
decided to give you this...
**[04:50] ---**
Oh! Good for you!
**[04:52] ---**
Accept it gratefully, Miyafuji.
**[04:55] ---**
Yes!
**[04:58] ---**
Thank you!
**[05:02] ---**
We're being deployed as part of
the counterattack operation too,
**[05:05] ---**
as an outpost unit.
**[05:07] ---**
This is finally it?
**[05:10] ---**
Counterattack?
**[05:12] ---**
Yes. We stopped by here today
because it was on our way.
**[05:16] ---**
We leave port tomorrow,
**[05:17] ---**
so everyone would love it
if you visited our ship!
**[05:22] ---**
Okay!
**[05:23] ---**
Unfortunately, we have a battle
scheduled for tomorrow.
**[05:27] ---**
I see. That's too bad.
**[05:31] ---**
He's a colonel, which means he
outranks Commander Mina, you know.
**[05:36] ---**
Oh? He was that important of a person?
**[05:39] ---**
It's incredible that a ship's captain
came to thank you for his entire crew!
**[05:45] ---**
Ms. Miyafuji!
**[05:47] ---**
I-I really admired the
courageous way you fought!
**[05:52] ---**
Th-Thank you very much
for protecting our ships!
**[05:56] ---**
S-Sure! You're welcome!
**[05:59] ---**
Also... Umm... Please accept this!
**[06:06] ---**
Umm...
**[06:08] ---**
It must be a love letter!
**[06:10] ---**
Love letter?
**[06:11] ---**
Yeah!
**[06:12] ---**
You should accept it!
**[06:27] ---**
Wait!
**[06:29] ---**
Wow! Wow!
**[06:38] ---**
What a relief!
**[06:50] ---**
Commander Mina!
**[06:51] ---**
I made it clear that this sort
of thing is strictly forbidden.
**[06:56] ---**
I'm sorry. I just really wanted to thank her.
**[06:59] ---**
Yes. He hasn't done anything wrong.
**[07:07] ---**
Unnecessary contact with the
Witches is strictly forbidden.
**[07:10] ---**
Therefore, I'm returning this.
**[07:14] ---**
I'm very sorry...
**[07:21] ---**
Commander Mina was scary...
**[07:23] ---**
Yeah...
**[07:24] ---**
I wonder what the letter said...
**[07:27] ---**
Yeah...
**[07:28] ---**
Yoshika?
**[07:30] ---**
Yeah...
**[08:05] ---**
I heard what happened.
**[08:10] ---**
Mio...
**[08:11] ---**
I hear you refused to accept the letter.
**[08:15] ---**
Those are the rules.
**[08:18] ---**
You still can't forget?
**[08:28] ---**
Wow! A Fuso doll!
**[08:31] ---**
It's so cute!
**[08:33] ---**
I really want to thank them...
**[08:42] ---**
Reports indicate the enemy is
on its way here from Gallia.
**[08:45] ---**
I guess the predictions
were right again for once.
**[08:48] ---**
Yes. It's currently flying at 15,000 meters
**[08:51] ---**
and heading straight for this base.
**[08:55] ---**
All right. Our routine intercept
pattern should suffice.
**[08:58] ---**
Today's team will consist of
**[08:59] ---**
Barkhorn and Hartmann at the fore
and Perrine and Lyn at the rear.
**[09:04] ---**
Miyafuji will be direct
support for Mina and me.
**[09:06] ---**
Shirley, Lucchini, Eila, and Sanya
will remain at base on standby!
**[09:09] ---**
♪ Holding down the fort!
Holding down the fort! ♪
**[09:12] ---**
Guess I'll tune my unit's settings...
**[09:17] ---**
All right! Get ready!
**[09:32] ---**
See you later!
**[09:40] ---**
Enemy sighted!
**[09:42] ---**
What type is it?
**[09:43] ---**
Determining!
**[09:50] ---**
300-meter class. Our usual formation?
**[09:53] ---**
Yes.
**[09:55] ---**
Alright! Charge!
**[10:09] ---**
What?!
**[10:10] ---**
It split into pieces!
**[10:14] ---**
Lower-right, 80! Middle, 100! Left, 30!
**[10:17] ---**
210 total. This is going to turn
into a medal of honor spree.
**[10:22] ---**
Yes.
**[10:23] ---**
So, what's the plan?
**[10:25] ---**
You look for the core.
**[10:27] ---**
Understood.
**[10:28] ---**
Barkhorn's team will take the middle.
**[10:29] ---**
Understood!
**[10:30] ---**
Perrine's team will take the right.
**[10:32] ---**
Understood!
**[10:33] ---**
Miyafuji, you'll act as direct
support for Major Sakamoto.
**[10:36] ---**
Understood!
**[10:38] ---**
Listen! Your job is to keep the enemy
**[10:40] ---**
away from her at all costs
until she locates the core!
**[10:43] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[10:54] ---**
That's ten down!
**[10:56] ---**
Twelve for me!
**[10:58] ---**
Looks like this is a good chance
to really up our scores...
**[11:01] ---**
Yeah, it's been really slow-going lately!
**[11:05] ---**
Listen! Your gun isn't
made for rapid firing!
**[11:08] ---**
Fall back and aim!
**[11:09] ---**
Right!
**[11:10] ---**
You have my back!
**[11:13] ---**
Using this always makes my hair
so uncooperative afterward...
**[11:18] ---**
Tonnerre!
**[11:26] ---**
For me, this is as easy as--
**[11:38] ---**
N-Not bad.
**[11:41] ---**
Everyone's amazing...!
**[11:53] ---**
Keep it up!
**[11:54] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[12:08] ---**
Twenty!
**[12:09] ---**
There's no end to them!
**[12:12] ---**
Which one is the core?!
**[12:29] ---**
Have you located the core?
**[12:31] ---**
No luck.
**[12:32] ---**
Could this be another diversion?!
**[12:34] ---**
I don't think so.
**[12:36] ---**
I can sense the core.
**[12:37] ---**
It's just not inside that swarm.
**[12:41] ---**
The battlefield *is* changing location...
**[12:44] ---**
Yes, we're approaching land...
**[12:49] ---**
Above!
**[12:52] ---**
Damn! I can't see!
**[12:54] ---**
I'll get them!
**[13:02] ---**
All right! That's it! Just a little longer!
**[13:04] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[13:08] ---**
Found it!
**[13:15] ---**
Is that it?
**[13:16] ---**
Yes.
**[13:17] ---**
Attention, all squad members!
Enemy core located!
**[13:20] ---**
We're going to take it down,
so keep the others off of us!
**[13:23] ---**
Roger!
**[13:24] ---**
Let's go!
**[13:25] ---**
Understood!
**[13:33] ---**
There it is!
**[13:39] ---**
Don't let it get away, Miyafuji!
**[13:40] ---**
Right!
**[13:59] ---**
Mio!
**[14:00] ---**
You're amazing, Yoshika!
**[14:05] ---**
That was only a fluke.
**[14:07] ---**
No, it's quite difficult to hit
an erratically moving enemy.
**[14:12] ---**
You're great, Miyafuji!
**[14:16] ---**
D-Do you think so?
**[14:21] ---**
It's so pretty...
**[14:22] ---**
Yes, once they wind up like this.
**[14:25] ---**
Beautiful flowers have thorns, as they say.
**[14:29] ---**
Are you referring to yourself?
**[14:30] ---**
How rude!
**[14:33] ---**
Though I *will* admit to the
part about being beautiful.
**[14:37] ---**
Meaning you're full of thorns?
**[14:40] ---**
Why must you always try to
find fault with others?!
**[14:43] ---**
Ha, ha! You're full of thorns!
**[14:49] ---**
Mina...?
**[14:52] ---**
Hey, where are you...?
**[14:54] ---**
Wait. Let's let her be by herself.
**[14:59] ---**
Oh, I see.
**[15:01] ---**
This is Pas-de-Calais...
**[15:27] ---**
Ostmark has fallen...
**[15:29] ---**
Yes. I'm being sent to the front lines.
**[15:37] ---**
I volunteered, too.
**[15:39] ---**
But you wanted to be a musician!
**[15:46] ---**
You wanted to go to Vienna
and the Mozarteum yourself.
**[15:51] ---**
I'm a Witch. It's my duty
to protect everyone.
**[15:55] ---**
I can't let you fight by yourself.
**[15:58] ---**
But you going to the front lines is crazy...
**[16:03] ---**
This way, I can be with you.
**[16:12] ---**
Mina!
**[16:32] ---**
Operation Dynamo seems to be going well.
**[16:34] ---**
Is it really possible to
evacuate all of Gallia?
**[16:38] ---**
I'm sure most everyone can
evacuate from the south by rail.
**[16:42] ---**
There isn't enough time.
**[16:44] ---**
At the very least, we need
to let the civilians escape.
**[16:47] ---**
So until then, we're stuck here.
**[16:49] ---**
Yeah. You're the only ones we can count on.
**[17:00] ---**
There! All set!
**[17:03] ---**
We're abandoning this base.
**[17:05] ---**
Continue on to Britannia after the battle.
**[17:08] ---**
What about you?!
**[17:10] ---**
We'll come afterward. See
you on the other side.
**[17:13] ---**
Promise?
**[17:15] ---**
Yes.
**[17:21] ---**
Mina! There's something
I want to give you later!
**[17:38] ---**
They haven't arrived?!
**[17:40] ---**
No, no one has...
**[17:44] ---**
Wait! Mina.
**[17:46] ---**
The others are out helping
with the evacuation right now.
**[17:48] ---**
There's nothing *we* can do;
we're out of magic right now!
**[17:51] ---**
But...! That's where...!
**[18:10] ---**
I'm sorry... Mina...
**[18:28] ---**
You're finished already?
**[18:30] ---**
Yes.
**[18:33] ---**
We're returning to base!
**[18:36] ---**
Understood.
**[18:43] ---**
She didn't come after all...
**[18:55] ---**
Ms. Miyafuji!
**[19:08] ---**
Thank you, everyone!
**[19:10] ---**
Try your hardest! I'm going
to try my hardest, too!
**[19:15] ---**
Good for you, Yoshika!
**[19:18] ---**
Yes! I was able to thank them!
**[19:21] ---**
We do owe them a lot.
**[19:22] ---**
Yes!
**[19:24] ---**
They all look so happy!
**[19:26] ---**
I'm so glad...
**[19:28] ---**
All right, let's head back to base!
**[19:30] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[19:36] ---**
Captain! We're receiving a transmission!
**[19:39] ---**
Put it on.
**[19:44] ---**
This is...!
**[19:46] ---**
Broadcast to all the other ships!
**[19:48] ---**
Understood!

**[20:58] ---**

**[21:02] ---**
What are you doing?
**[21:04] ---**
What about Sanya's piano playing?!
**[21:07] ---**
It was very nice, too!
**[21:10] ---**
You can praise her more than that!
**[21:11] ---**
I *am* praising her!
**[21:15] ---**
Please let go!
**[21:17] ---**
Nope! I'm just getting started!
**[21:19] ---**
That hurts!
**[21:36] ---**
That was a nice song.
**[21:40] ---**
Thanks.
**[21:47] ---**
I appreciate you giving
permission to see them off.
**[21:51] ---**
You wanted to see them too, didn't you?
**[21:53] ---**
Yes. They've done a lot for me.
**[22:03] ---**
It was really hard on me when I lost him.
**[22:07] ---**
I felt I'd have been better
off never growing fond of him.
**[22:12] ---**
But I've realized that's not true.
**[22:17] ---**
I see...
**[22:21] ---**
But, even now I'm terrified of losing people.
**[22:25] ---**
Which is why I have to make
sure I *never* lose anyone again.
