[00:09] ---
    Moonlit Guns for Hire
[00:16] ---
    I'm tellin' ya...
[00:17] ---
    I woulda sworn I'd get myself
    a few more tags, but no, nothing!
[00:20] ---
    Talk about not living up to the hype!
[00:22] ---
    Gimme a break, Adolfo.
[00:24] ---
    Pass.
[00:24] ---
    You fly about as steady as
    a windsock on a latrine.
[00:28] ---
    Pass-What's that even mean?
[00:29] ---
    Pass.
[00:30] ---
    I'm just saying you always wind up
    right where I'm trying to avoid.
[00:31] ---
    I got nothing.
[00:33] ---
    Swinging 'round aimlessly this way and that.
[00:36] ---
    Really, Miguel?
[00:38] ---
    What's our own ammo-wasting
    champion got to laugh about?
[00:40] ---
    Don't throw a fit now, Adolfo.
[00:41] ---
    Bam!
[00:43] ---
    Not so fast.
[00:49] ---
    I'm out.
[00:50] ---
    Again?!
[00:51] ---
    This is ridiculous.
[00:53] ---
    Guess we don't stand a chance
    against the hand of God himself, eh?
[00:56] ---
    God had no part in this.
[00:58] ---
    You bet he didn't!
    God ain't never helped anyone anywhere!
[01:03] ---
    Both of you be damned.
[01:04] ---
    Ririko, my dear!
[01:06] ---
    I've gotta be the most pitiful chap
    in the whole Nazarin Air Squad.
[01:09] ---
    Why doncha come cheer me up?
[01:10] ---
    That's not on our menu.
[01:12] ---
    Oh, that's cold.
[01:14] ---
    But that's what I love about ya!
[01:15] ---
    Give it a rest, Adolfo.
[01:17] ---
    If there ain't a single gal in this world
    who'd gimme the time of day...
[01:20] ---
    How do I know I'm not in hell already?
[01:22] ---
    Sure they might not be friendly,
    but we've still got plenty of gals, right?
[01:25] ---
    Where, exactly?
[01:26] ---
    Here are your pancakes,
    just the way you like them.
[01:28] ---
    Hooray!
[01:42] ---
    Reona, so as I was saying,
[01:45] ---
    I'd like to take two days off after
    this job, but what do you say?
[01:49] ---
    What's this for now, Emma? A date?
[01:51] ---
    Not at all. I simply need
    to attend to the orchard.
[01:54] ---
    Ah, those Yoshino cherry trees?
[01:57] ---
    The very ones. I can't have them dying off now
    that they've been left to me.
[02:01] ---
    The Madame's the one who calls the shots,
    but I don't see two days being an issue.
[02:05] ---
    I'll be going to the hospital.
[02:06] ---
    Say hi to Allen for me.
[02:07] ---
    Right.
[02:08] ---
    Ririko, whip me up some more!
[02:10] ---
    What are you planning to do, Reona?
[02:12] ---
    The same as always.
[02:13] ---
    You should come out drinking with me.
[02:15] ---
    I'll think about it.
[02:17] ---
    That's basically the same as saying no.
[02:19] ---
    You're no fun.
[02:20] ---
    Here you are.
[02:22] ---
    Ririko, you're the quickest cook around!
[02:24] ---
    Kylie, you certainly do have
    an appetite for pancakes, don't you?
[02:27] ---
    I mean, it has been a whole
    18 hours since my last plate.
[02:29] ---
    I fail to see your point.
[02:30] ---
    They're so light and fluffy, with
    just that hint of sweetness.
[02:33] ---
    The perfect match to some salted meat
    and just the right size, too!
[02:36] ---
    Plus there's that ultra-lite whipped cream on the side
    to give it a boost when it needs it.
[02:39] ---
    Not that they aren't delish as-is!
[02:42] ---
    They taste like something
    you could only dream of!
[02:44] ---
    Yet the 850 calories on that plate
    are anything but a dream.
[02:47] ---
    Well, how are you supposed to enjoy pancakes
    if you worry about the calories?
[02:50] ---
    Who can't handle a scary
    little thrill like this?
[02:53] ---
    Oh, to be young again.
[02:54] ---
    I doubt we could keep up with her.
[02:56] ---
    Johnny's place here has got
    the best pancakes around!
[02:58] ---
    Well, well.
[03:00] ---
    Pardon me!
[03:01] ---
    The name's Adolfo.
[03:02] ---
    We're both off shift in
    another seven hours, yeah?
[03:04] ---
    Sure it's still a bit early,
    but whaddya say we celebrate?
[03:06] ---
    Seven hours is plenty enough time
    to find some love in the air, eh?
[03:11] ---
    Unfortunately...
[03:12] ---
    Cursed be any who dare
    disrespect a good pancake!
[03:15] ---
    What?
[03:16] ---
    Oh, sorry. I'm only interested in
    these two over here, ya see.
[03:19] ---
    Well, that's a shame.
[03:20] ---
    Because Reona here doesn't
    waste her time with men
[03:22] ---
    who couldn't even hold their own against her.
[03:25] ---
    Oh yeah? Well, let me introduce myself, then!
[03:28] ---
    I'm Adolfo Yamada of the Nazarin Air Squad.
[03:30] ---
    I've been at this for five
    years and three months now.
[03:31] ---
    And I've got 11 and 5/7th stars to my name!
[03:33] ---
    When it comes to lightning fast first strikes
    and always being one step ahead, I'm a pro!
[03:37] ---
    Whaddya say? Impressive, yeah?
[03:38] ---
    Kate, what the heck is 5/7th of a star?
[03:40] ---
    A number he is still aspiring for.
    That is, one he has still yet to earn.
[03:43] ---
    Oh!
[03:44] ---
    But only eleven, huh?
[03:45] ---
    What?!
[03:46] ---
    Whaddya mean "only" eleven?
[03:47] ---
    Oh well, I mean that's still pretty good
    if you're flying a Shiden.
[03:50] ---
    "For a Shiden?!"
[03:52] ---
    Let me tell you a little something about
    the gunpods on those wings there-
[03:54] ---
    YIKES!
[03:55] ---
    Ladies, sorry about our boy Adolfo here.
[03:58] ---
    Quit acting so immature
    around a bunch of kids.
[04:00] ---
    Many thanks for your kindness.
[04:02] ---
    Your friend here certainly seems
    quite lively and ambitious.
[04:05] ---
    Why would you say that?
[04:07] ---
    Kate, this is what some would
    call "lip service," you see.
[04:10] ---
    So you mean, you're lying, then?
[04:13] ---
    I'd prefer it if you'd
    say I was acting wisely.
[04:15] ---
    Do you really need to go that far, though?
[04:16] ---
    If you hope to get along.
[04:18] ---
    No, thanks!
[04:19] ---
    With a guy that's acting all tough over
    just eleven measly stars? No way!
[04:22] ---
    He ruins the mood, talks himself up,
    and gets a big nope from me!
[04:25] ---
    You wanna say that to my face?!
[04:27] ---
    Well now girly! If you're gonna
    run your mouth off like that,
[04:30] ---
    I take it you got the skills to back it up?
[04:32] ---
    Yup. Let's see...
[04:34] ---
    I think I'm at 43 now. And that's without
    any unofficial, unconfirmed tags.
[04:37] ---
    Forty three?!
[04:38] ---
    No way! That's impossible!
[04:40] ---
    Unbelievable!
[04:41] ---
    Believe it.
[04:42] ---
    All of them together have
    tallied up over 200, you know.
[04:57] ---
    Why do none of my good hunches
[04:59] ---
    ever come to fruition but the
    bad ones never seem to fail to?
[05:02] ---
    Hey! Howdy! Your dependable First Officer
    of the Hagoromo, Saneatsu here!
[05:07] ---
    This alarm is an automatic alert set off
    by readings on our radar.
[05:11] ---
    Radar shows movement bearing 340 degrees,
    on our two o'clock.
[05:14] ---
    We're picking up no large
    aircraft in that direction,
[05:17] ---
    but we have unidentified
    bogey moving in fast.
[05:19] ---
    Altitude is 600 khrill.
[05:20] ---
    Cloud base sits at 450 khrill.
[05:22] ---
    Winds are blowing in from 280 degrees.
[05:23] ---
    Wind speed is 4.5 khrill.
[05:25] ---
    We are currently positioned at A-E
    145 degrees and 54 minutes.
[05:29] ---
    M-B 30 degrees and 17 minutes.
[05:31] ---
    What are our fuel reserves?
[05:32] ---
    4,102 bottles.
[05:34] ---
    We can maintain course at current speeds
    for 695 more kilometers.
[05:37] ---
    Which means we have no
    chance of evading them.
[05:40] ---
    What's the speed on those bogeys?
[05:41] ---
    Bogeys moving in at 165 kilometers per hour.
[05:43] ---
    Altitudes like that must mean
    they're flying zeroes, then?
[05:45] ---
    I take it that means we're
    dealing with air pirates?
[05:47] ---
    Really? Do we have no escape routes?
[05:49] ---
    Tell me Maria, can you
    resist buying new shoes?
[05:52] ---
    Not a chance.
[05:52] ---
    Same goes for me and bags.
[05:54] ---
    That's how big of a chance we have here.
[05:55] ---
    Things are looking grim, then.
[05:57] ---
    First Officer.
[05:58] ---
    Requesting permission to launch fighters.
[06:01] ---
    We're really doing this?
[06:02] ---
    We're running out of time.
[06:04] ---
    So be it!
[06:07] ---
    Permission to launch all fighters!
[06:09] ---
    Oh, and uh...
[06:11] ---
    All crew to their battle positions!
[06:17] ---
    Anyone who can't keep up is gonna get
    an inertia handle cranked right up their butts!
[06:20] ---
    Roger!
[06:21] ---
    I thought we'd at least
    get off this time around.
[06:24] ---
    Well, aren't you nauseatingly naïve?
[06:55] ---
    All right, all right! Time
    to tag me a few more stars!
[06:58] ---
    Sure you got it in ya?
[06:58] ---
    I do!
[06:59] ---
    Fernando, say a prayer for us.
[07:01] ---
    My days of praying are long behind me.
[07:04] ---
    Please.
[07:09] ---
    Hey, check out our little gal's plane.
[07:17] ---
    She plays it up with talk of 40 tags,
    200 even, but she flies a Hayabusa?
[07:21] ---
    All girls wanna do is show off.
[07:23] ---
    Focus, leave them be.
[07:24] ---
    Yeah, yeah.
[07:25] ---
    Attention all crew! Commencing braking!
[07:30] ---
    Nazarin Air Squad, clear for takeoff!
[07:36] ---
    The Nazarin are good to go already?
[07:39] ---
    That's what I like about these freelancers!
[07:42] ---
    First officer, that's the Madame on the line.
[07:45] ---
    I'm aware.
[07:45] ---
    Aren't you going to pick up?
[07:46] ---
    'Course I am.
[07:49] ---
    Hey there, Loulou!
    Our vessel's got no problems to report!
[07:52] ---
    Well, of course not.
[07:53] ---
    Today's cargo is of particular importance.
[07:56] ---
    You are aware of this, yes?
[07:58] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[07:59] ---
    Let my lovely little birdies know
    there's a bonus to be had today.
[08:02] ---
    For each and every plane they shoot down.
[08:04] ---
    For me, too?!
[08:05] ---
    Lose even a single drop of
    that cargo and you're done.

    All right. Same as always, two to a team-
[10:32] ---
    No wait, today we're in two
    teams of two and three.
[10:34] ---
    I finally feel awake.
[10:36] ---
    Zara, don't you go falling
    asleep on me out here.
[10:39] ---
    I'll be fine. I could pilot
    this thing in my sleep.
[10:41] ---
    Don't push your luck.
[10:43] ---
    That's what got Chika in trouble.
[10:46] ---
    Yeah, yeah.
[10:46] ---
    Kate, Emma, Kylie.
[10:48] ---
    The rear's all yours.
[10:49] ---
    As you wish.
[10:50] ---
    Roger that.
[10:50] ---
    Bogeys sighted, two o'clock.
[10:52] ---
    Oh, this'll be fun!
[10:53] ---
    Fly high, KOTOBUKI Flight Corps!
[10:55] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[11:17] ---
    Think you're good, eh?
[11:18] ---
    Wobbling and fluttering around?
[11:20] ---
    Gotcha!
[11:26] ---
    Damn! Where'd they go?!
[11:35] ---
    I can't shake 'em!
[11:43] ---
    Rodriguez!
[11:43] ---
    Adolfo, behind you!
[11:50] ---
    Nazarin Squad, three birds down.
[11:52] ---
    What?! Didn't these guys say
    they were the best of the best?
[12:02] ---
    Did I lose 'em? Did they just give up?!
[12:20] ---
    Something's up. These aren't the regular
    sort of pirates we're used to!
[12:28] ---
    Got 'em!
[14:42] ---
    The Hagoromo's in trouble!
[15:02] ---
    Air pirates, closing in.
[15:03] ---
    Gimme a break! You shoot us down and
    there'll be no cargo left for you, you hear me?!
[15:18] ---
    These horrid pirates!
[15:38] ---
    Emma sure is something.
[15:42] ---
    Permission to fire granted! Requested even!
[16:57] ---
    Is that one of ours? One of theirs?!
[16:58] ---
    It's an enemy craft.
[16:58] ---
    We aren't going to make it!
[17:04] ---
    Woohoo!
[17:05] ---
    Kylie, nice work!
[17:07] ---
    Enemy in retreat. No need for pursuit.
[17:09] ---
    All birds return to nest.
[17:27] ---
    Uh-oh.
[17:49] ---
    Oh no! You're definitely going down!
[17:55] ---
    All right!
[18:21] ---
    What? Huh?!
[19:24] ---
    What? Why? How?!
[19:31] ---
    Not this! Not again!
[19:49] ---
    Urgh, that's so annoying!
[19:58] ---
    The captain's taken flight!
[20:00] ---
    Kylie's home to roost!
[20:34] ---
    You doofus!
[20:36] ---
    How many times do I need to
    tell you to cut that out?!
[20:37] ---
    I just...
[20:38] ---
    I don't want your excuses!
[20:41] ---
    I bet the first officer plans to pay out
    bonuses for their families.
[20:45] ---
    I can see where he's coming from.
[20:47] ---
    What, are you telling
    me you like that whiner?
[20:49] ---
    No, I just mean it must be tough to be
    the family of a fighter pilot.
[20:54] ---
    Oh.
[20:55] ---
    So cocky and full of themselves.
[20:57] ---
    Always looking for another thrill.
[20:59] ---
    Reckless and quick to disappear.
[21:02] ---
    Nothing but morons.
[21:04] ---
    Where have Reona and the girls gone?
[21:06] ---
    Couldn't say. They all headed for town
    as soon as we landed.
[21:09] ---
    And here I was ready to dish out bonuses.
[21:11] ---
    I'll take it in their stead!
[21:12] ---
    Are you really that dumb?
[21:14] ---
    I might just be.
[21:17] ---
    Long ago, the world opened right up,
    and lots of things rained down on us.
[21:24] ---
    Some good things. Some bad things.
[21:26] ---
    Some lovely things. Some tarnished things.
[21:28] ---
    There was all sorts of stuff.
[21:30] ---
    But since then, things have closed up again.
[21:34] ---
    And now, while we slowly lose
    many of the things we have...
[21:39] ---
    We still live on.
[21:48] ---
    Okay! I'll be back!
[22:14] ---
    Flying through the mesh of clouds
[22:17] ---
    Our dancing wings wrap up in the wind
[22:21] ---
    Stars fall right before our eyes
[22:30] ---
    The blue of all blues that drew us in
[22:33] ---
    We kicked up off the blurring ground
[22:37] ---
    Let me hear the sound of the sky you know
[22:44] ---
    Take flight make gravity your ally
[22:51] ---
    One more time, however many
    times, laughing all along
[22:57] ---
    We would never look back when we fly
[23:05] ---
    An everlasting dream we
    live in pursuit of tomorrow
[23:10] ---
    Amid rising despair I locked away my love
[23:13] ---
    I hate my weak self
[23:16] ---
    Here and now passes by as
    we head towards the future
[23:25] ---
    Preview
[23:33] ---
    Next time on The Magnificent KOTOBUKI,
    "The Wandering Six"!
