[00:01] ---
    My good people, I am forever grateful that
    you have assembled before me here this day.
[00:07] ---
    Why, you may ask? Because you have chosen
    to gracefully share in our peace and happiness!
[00:13] ---
    But let us not forget!
[00:15] ---
    This world is full of miscreants
    who would seek to stop us!
[00:18] ---
    The hole is what once brought us the Yufang!
[00:22] ---
    It brought us prosperity!
[00:24] ---
    It brought airplanes, anti-air artillery, Yufang liquor,
    curry and rice, and even pancakes!
[00:34] ---
    But our enemies now wish to take
    its blessings for themselves!
[00:38] ---
    These heinous criminals spare
    no thought for anyone but themselves!
[00:43] ---
    These criminals are the people of Rahama!
[00:45] ---
    They tried to keep our long awaited new hole
    all to themselves, but failed!
[00:49] ---
    And just like that it was gone once again.
[00:52] ---
    We of the Brotherhood of Freedom Union will not
    forgive any who side with Rahama or Porokka!
[00:57] ---
    We must not allow these criminals to
[01:00] ---
    keep to themselves, stealing away
    the wonders of the holes from us!
[01:04] ---
    The Brotherhood of Freedom Union
    is the only path to world peace!
[01:07] ---
    Because only the Brotherhood of Freedom Union
    has the power to make it a reality!
[01:10] ---
    The Brotherhood of Freedom Union is the best!
[01:15] ---
    That damn Isao!
[01:16] ---
    How could he do this?
[01:17] ---
    How could he set our beloved Porokka ablaze?!
[01:20] ---
    Mr. Gaudreau, please settle down.
    You'll only bring your blood pressure up.
[01:24] ---
    Blood pressure be damned!
[01:25] ---
    It's these Ikesuka bastards
    we need to worry about!
[01:30] ---
    Mr. Gaudreau...
[01:32] ---
    Get in touch with Shouto!
[01:34] ---
    And that haughty gal from Gadoll, too!
[01:48] ---
    The Magnificent
    KOTOBUKI
[01:55] ---
    Flying through the mesh of clouds
[01:58] ---
    Our dancing wings wrap up in the wind
[02:02] ---
    Stars fall right before our eyes
[02:11] ---
    The blue of all blues that drew us in
[02:15] ---
    We kicked up off the blurring ground
[02:18] ---
    Let me hear the sound of the sky you know
[02:25] ---
    Take flight make gravity your ally
[02:32] ---
    One more time, however many
    times, laughing all along
[02:39] ---
    We would never look back when we fly
[02:46] ---
    An everlasting dream we
    live in pursuit of tomorrow
[02:51] ---
    Amid rising despair I locked away my love
[02:54] ---
    I hate my weak self
[02:57] ---
    Here and now passes by as
    we head towards the future
[03:06] ---
    Duel in Ikesuka
[03:07] ---
    He goes around preaching of brotherhood this and freedom that,
[03:10] ---
    but it's all just fancy talk.
[03:12] ---
    All he's after is consolidating
    all power into his own hands!
[03:16] ---
    How can they not see that?
[03:17] ---
    That's what we're here for, isn't it?
[03:19] ---
    You'd better believe it!
[03:20] ---
    Damned if I'll ever let
    Isao tell me what to do!
[03:22] ---
    If he did take control,
    the world would be as good as finished.
[03:25] ---
    Ijitsu would be split into three classes.
[03:27] ---
    Isao, his followers, and...
[03:31] ---
    His slaves.
[03:35] ---
    This is the Ofukouyama squad.
[03:36] ---
    We've reached the target airspace.
[03:43] ---
    All right! We've got eyes on
    the Union air force! On our ten!
[03:46] ---
    Looks like roughly a hundred fighters.
[03:48] ---
    That's fewer than intel reported.
[03:50] ---
    Another hundred or so, on our one o'clock.
[03:52] ---
    That puts them at around two hundred...
[03:54] ---
    Okay everyone, are you ready for this?
[03:56] ---
    You bet!
[03:57] ---
    You'll be safe with me
    covering you, captain Naomi!
[04:00] ---
    Yeah, no thanks.
[04:01] ---
    What?! Come on! Don't be like that, captain!
[04:05] ---
    I'm Adolfo Yamada, of THE Nazarin--
[04:08] ---
    Camilla, you know what our job is
    and what we're here to do, right?
[04:11] ---
    Don't you go chasing any of them down!
[04:13] ---
    Of course! A grudge is a grudge!
[04:15] ---
    Gotta stay calm, cool and collected!
    Gotta riddle them with holes!
[04:18] ---
    More importantly you gotta stay alive.
[04:20] ---
    Exactly.
[04:20] ---
    Now all fighters, prepare to engage!
[04:22] ---
    The Ofukouyama squad has
    moved to engage the enemy.
[04:25] ---
    Good! Good, good, good!
    They fell for it, then.
[04:28] ---
    Those idiots from Ikesuka and the Union
    just threw two hundred fighters at a decoy!
[04:32] ---
    That's gotta be nearly all their aircraft.
[04:34] ---
    Don't let your guard down yet.
[04:35] ---
    They might still have more
    firepower than we know.
[04:38] ---
    C'mon now Julia, that doesn't sound like you.
[04:40] ---
    Overthinking things will
    just make you a coward!
[04:43] ---
    We've got all the intel we need right here.
[04:46] ---
    Right, my faithful assistant, you?
[04:48] ---
    Oh yes. According to my sources there
    is no reason to doubt any of this.
[04:54] ---
    Well there you have it!
[04:56] ---
    We're gonna wipe 'em all
    out! Now let's move out!
[04:59] ---
    What is it with men like that who think shouting
    their orders will make any difference?
[05:02] ---
    I bet he thinks the louder he shouts
    the more power he wields.
[05:05] ---
    What an ingrate.
[05:07] ---
    Now now, girls. Let's curb
    the slander, shall we?
[05:09] ---
    No, feel free. They're entirely
    right about Gaudreau there.
[05:13] ---
    But everything comes in
    handy when used properly.
[05:17] ---
    And right know Porokka's military force
    is just what we need.
[05:19] ---
    You seem pretty confident about all this.
[05:21] ---
    Of course.
[05:22] ---
    We might be a rag tag assortment,
    but we have them beat in sheer numbers.
[05:26] ---
    This is anyone's battle.
[05:27] ---
    I prefer to stay away from gambling
    when I'm just as likely to lose as win.
[05:31] ---
    But if we pass up this opportunity,
    our chances of winning only go down from here.
[05:34] ---
    So this is really our only chance, then.
[05:37] ---
    Exactly!
[05:38] ---
    I sure hope Miki made it
    safely out of Porokka.
[05:41] ---
    I haven't heard word from
    her, and I'm so worried...
[05:45] ---
    Why would she get in touch with you?
[05:47] ---
    Why? I thought the madame sorted things out?
[05:49] ---
    More like smoothed them over.
    She never said she'd speak with you again.
[05:52] ---
    I'm sure you've guessed as much,
    but we don't have any time to waste.
[05:55] ---
    First we need to hit the factories
    producing those bombers!
[05:57] ---
    Right, and those would be where...?
[06:00] ---
    Oh, yeah. Right there.
[06:02] ---
    Our target is 25 kilometers
    southwest of central Ikesuka.
[06:05] ---
    The Fugaku construction assembly plant!
[06:07] ---
    Wind speeds are at 17 khrill,
    blowing in at 90 degrees.
[06:09] ---
    First Officer, your orders, sir!
[06:13] ---
    Move the bridge upwind! All
    engines, full speed ahead!
[06:16] ---
    On our twenty!
[06:18] ---
    Releasing the hatch! All
    fighters, prepare for takeoff!
[06:24] ---
    Hey, so uhh, I don't really get what's going on here.
    Isn't this kind of a cheap move?
[06:28] ---
    Well we drew out their
[06:29] ---
    main forces so we can close
    in on their facilities, so you might say that.
[06:32] ---
    Diversions are perfectly
    acceptable military tactics.
[06:36] ---
    I hate these missions, though.
    It's such a pain when we can't just fly however we want!
[06:40] ---
    I know what you mean, but I think we'd best avoid
    being hasty and try and talk this all out.
[06:46] ---
    I would have to disagree.
[06:48] ---
    Oh my, and why's that?
[06:49] ---
    Reona seems to be forgetting that there
    are some people you just cannot reason with.
[06:53] ---
    The more trust you put in someone,
    the weaker you are when facing them.
[06:57] ---
    That may be, but her word
    is still good by me.
[07:00] ---
    Right or wrong.
[07:02] ---
    That's nonsensical.
[07:03] ---
    Where do you stand, Kate?
    Good or bad? Do it or don't?
[07:06] ---
    There are things I wish to clear up.
[07:08] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?
[07:09] ---
    This mission is my chance to clear up
    things I wish to make clear.
[07:11] ---
    What does that even mean?
[07:31] ---
    Kylie, quit lagging behind!
[07:32] ---
    Yeah, yeah.
[07:34] ---
    You're flying too low, too.
[07:35] ---
    Yeah, yeah.
[07:36] ---
    How can you be so lax?
[07:39] ---
    Kylie has seemed out of
    it for a while now, huh?
[07:41] ---
    Know what? I bet she's just scared!
[07:43] ---
    Nope. I was just thinking about what
    we're actually supposed to be doing out here.
[07:48] ---
    At a time like this?
[07:49] ---
    We're defending the Hagoromo
    and attacking Ikesuka.
[07:52] ---
    Defending the Hagoromo I can understand,
    but why are we attacking Ikesuka, again?
[07:57] ---
    Kylie! Were you in some other realm of existence
    during our briefing or something?
[08:00] ---
    No, I was listening.
    But none of it really made sense to me.
[08:05] ---
    So a hole almost opened over Rahama, right?
[08:08] ---
    Then Isao showed up?
[08:10] ---
    And then Julia formed some kind of alliance.
[08:12] ---
    I get all that.
[08:15] ---
    But then what?
[08:17] ---
    What are we doing here?
[08:20] ---
    Are wars supposed to just be
    fought on a whim like this?
[08:25] ---
    Is that what the KOTOBUKI Corps stands for?
[08:29] ---
    Orders are orders. And things
    are already in motion.
[08:32] ---
    The Magnificent
    KOTOBUKI
[09:00] ---
    I figured this lot was just a bunch of rag tag pilots,
    but they're better than I thought!
[09:04] ---
    Don't forget! This is for Shouto!
[09:06] ---
    For the theater they leveled on First Avenue!
[09:08] ---
    For the bakery and the Takochu Park, too!
    Let them have it!
[09:28] ---
    Got ya--
[09:30] ---
    My lady! I, the world's dandiest man,
    am here by your side! Fear not!
[09:33] ---
    Whaddya think you're doing,
    eggplant for brains?!
[09:36] ---
    When I'm maneuvering behind an enemy fighter you
    should be making sure they can't pull away!
[09:40] ---
    W-well how am I supposed to know that?
[09:41] ---
    If you have to ask, then quit talking yourself up!
    You're just wasting your breath!
[09:45] ---
    My lady, look out!
[09:46] ---
    Captain Naomi, on your five!
[09:54] ---
    What are you even out here for?
[09:55] ---
    If you're just gonna float around
    up here, then quit wasting gasoline!
[09:58] ---
    I was trying to warn you...
[09:59] ---
    If you can't even cover me
    then you're good for nothing!
[10:11] ---
    Stay out of my line of sight, fish face!
[10:13] ---
    Sorry...
[10:31] ---
    Pummel that factory,
    and we'll really curb the Union's firepower!
[10:41] ---
    Those big planes from the
    other day aren't here, huh?
[10:43] ---
    The Fugaku?
[10:44] ---
    Yeah, those!
[10:45] ---
    Perhaps the bombers we saw
    the other day were their whole fleet?
[10:47] ---
    That still doesn't explain why this place seems
    deserted.
[10:49] ---
    You'd figure they'd leave behind at least enough
    people to defend the place.
[10:54] ---
    We're blowing this place up?
[10:55] ---
    Don't sweat the details. Light the place up!
[10:58] ---
    Where's our welcoming committee?
[11:00] ---
    There's no sight of 'em here.
    I bet they all ran away scared of us!
[11:04] ---
    Madame! Councilor Julia!
[11:19] ---
    It was a trap?!
[11:19] ---
    I count 200- No, wait...
[11:21] ---
    That's impossible!
    They don't have those sort of numbers!
[11:24] ---
    What happened to that
    perfect intel of yours?!
[11:27] ---
    Gaudreau, sir, it would seem despite
    all unlikelihood that you were wrong.
[11:30] ---
    I was what, now?!
[11:31] ---
    I believe it is about time
    I make a career change.
[11:31] ---
    RESIGNATION
[11:33] ---
    The pleasure has been all mine!
[11:36] ---
    Are you telling me you were a double agent?!
[11:38] ---
    You have my best wishes!
[12:07] ---
    Send the order to retreat.
[12:09] ---
    If we don't do so this instant,
[12:10] ---
    our fifty-fifty chance
    will quickly become much more of a gamble.
[12:12] ---
    We can't!
[12:13] ---
    Julia, it would seem we made light of Isao.
[12:17] ---
    We've lost.
[12:21] ---
    Full retreat!
[12:22] ---
    Turn us around!
[12:23] ---
    Turning now!
[12:25] ---
    Bearing 180!
[12:26] ---
    Alert the decoy squad!
[12:27] ---
    Roger!
[12:28] ---
    Gaudreau, it's Julia.
    The Hagoromo is retreating. You'd best as well.
[12:33] ---
    Retreat isn't even on the table for us!
[12:37] ---
    You'll be wiped out at this rate!
[12:38] ---
    It's talk like that that's
    gonna cost us this battle!
[12:40] ---
    We can still win!
[12:42] ---
    And so the tricksters
    have become the tricked.
[12:45] ---
    Do you have any other
    options or back up plans?
[12:47] ---
    Not really, no!
[12:49] ---
    But this is just too cruel...
[12:50] ---
    Why don't you call that ex-wife of yours?
    She might even worry about you, now.
[12:55] ---
    Even now, it's only a "might"?
[12:57] ---
    Come on! Go away!
[13:00] ---
    Whew!
[13:01] ---
    Thank you, Naomi!
[13:03] ---
    How do they expect us to
    retreat from all this?!
[13:07] ---
    Well, we can't just have you running off
    without paying for what you've done.
[13:11] ---
    This time it's our turn!
[13:13] ---
    I would appreciate it if you would
    stick around with us just a tad longer.
[13:20] ---
    Hmph, fine then.
[13:21] ---
    Those Type 5's aren't half bad, huh?
[13:26] ---
    I sure love these near death battles!
[13:28] ---
    You two bastards better keep up!
[13:31] ---
    What?!
[13:31] ---
    Aren't we retreating?
[13:32] ---
    That one there's all yours!
[13:33] ---
    All my- What?!
[13:46] ---
    Engines 21 and 23 have been knocked out!
[13:50] ---
    Engine 12 has been knocked clean off!
[13:51] ---
    We can't go at 'em like this!
[13:52] ---
    Fires have broken out in hangars 1 and 2!
[13:54] ---
    You have to retreat!
[13:55] ---
    So much for your day of dominance, huh?!
[13:58] ---
    I never claimed such to begin with!
[14:04] ---
    Dammit! How am I supposed to face up to Chika
    if I can't even put her teachings to work here?!
[14:07] ---
    Keep your wits about you, Tokiwagi!
[14:09] ---
    Don't take this too far!
    We need to focus on each of them, one by one!
[14:11] ---
    You ain't gotta tell me!
[14:14] ---
    Rahama still has its secret weapon!
[14:16] ---
    And it's time you had a taste of it!
[14:18] ---
    Fires have broken out in block 13!
    We can't put these out!
[14:21] ---
    Keep at it! The enemy's falling back!
[14:24] ---
    All we gotta do is push
    through this, and we win!
[14:35] ---
    Are you seeing this?
    Something just went down!
[14:37] ---
    The Hagoromo?!
[14:38] ---
    It appears to be the Porokka flagship.
[14:39] ---
    How could this be?
[14:40] ---
    Reona...
[14:41] ---
    We retreat!
[14:42] ---
    Fall back and protect the Hagoromo!
[14:43] ---
    Got it!
[14:51] ---
    What the heck is that thing?!
[14:53] ---
    Oh yeah! This is what I call a scuffle!
[14:55] ---
    May the last plane flying win!
[14:58] ---
    Oh, this is so exciting!
[15:09] ---
    Isao, sir, please fall back.
[15:11] ---
    There is no need for you to fly
    head-first into this conflict.
[15:13] ---
    How did that saying go again?
    That old Yufang one...
[15:17] ---
    What?
[15:17] ---
    Oh yeah!
[15:18] ---
    The real fool's the fool that
    doesn't fool around at all!
[15:43] ---
    Zara, will you fly with me?
[15:46] ---
    I'm with you.
[15:51] ---
    I assume that's you,
    Brotherhood of Freedom Union Chairman, Isao!
[15:53] ---
    Huh?
[15:54] ---
    I'm Reona, captain of the Ouni Company's
    KOTOBUKI Corps from Rahama!
[15:59] ---
    When I was still a fresh pilot,
    you once saved my life.
[16:03] ---
    I just want to talk with you!
[16:05] ---
    Uhh, talk about what, exactly?
    I don't like talking about complicated stuff!
[16:10] ---
    I don't want to have to
    fight any pointless battles.
[16:12] ---
    I'm sure neither of us wish to see
    the loss of any more lives!
[16:14] ---
    That's true.
[16:16] ---
    If you issue the order,
    our side will surely agree to a ceasefire.
[16:19] ---
    I'll do what I can to make sure of it!
[16:21] ---
    Yes, yes, and then?
[16:22] ---
    Please allow us to retreat!
[16:32] ---
    Sure.
[16:34] ---
    I knew you were not the person
    everyone says you are!
[16:43] ---
    Just kidding!
[16:44] ---
    Reona!
[16:51] ---
    I told you I don't like getting
    all caught up in complicated stuff!
[16:57] ---
    How dare you do that to her!
[17:09] ---
    Well, lookie here, another new face!
[17:11] ---
    Hi there, newbie!
[17:13] ---
    I'm no newbie, I'm Kylie!
[17:15] ---
    We met in Areshima!
[17:16] ---
    And back with that fish, too!
[17:18] ---
    We did?
[17:19] ---
    You know, I think I do remember
    that mark on your tail, there.
[17:23] ---
    But I don't remember you being
    a girl. Or young, either!
[17:26] ---
    What?!
[17:26] ---
    It was just some old fool who got left behind
    when the Yufang disappeared from Ijitsu.
[17:31] ---
    A real stubborn guy.
[17:33] ---
    Indeed. A mulish man stuck in his old ways.
[17:36] ---
    We call them them the Yufang here, but they call
    themselves the Japanese Army, you know!
[17:42] ---
    Yes, indeed. Not the
    Yufang, but the Japanese.
[17:44] ---
    Apparently that guy was some
    sorta "mill-ee-terry" engineer or something.
[17:47] ---
    But no matter how many times we talked,
    he'd never listen to what we told him.
[17:49] ---
    ALTITUDE
[17:51] ---
    OIL PRESSURE
    FUEL PRESSURE
[17:51] ---
    He even tried fleeing.
[17:54] ---
    Ol' Sab...!
[17:55] ---
    Maybe he just didn't like to fight?
[17:57] ---
    Despised it, I'm sure.
[17:59] ---
    Who knows, though?
[18:00] ---
    Indeed, we have no way of knowing now.
[18:04] ---
    Nope!
[18:06] ---
    'Cause he was such a pain
    that we shot him down!
[18:09] ---
    Stinks to be him, huh?
[18:10] ---
    Abandoned by the Yufang only to be shot down by me.
    Not a happy ending!
[18:14] ---
    I wonder what he's up to now?
[18:16] ---
    Probably rotting away somewhere
    out in the wastelands.
[18:20] ---
    You miserable stinkin' buttface!
[18:24] ---
    Lemme tell you about Ol' Sab!
[18:26] ---
    Huh? What? What's the matter?
[18:28] ---
    Ol' Sab!
[18:30] ---
    He hated people like you!
[18:40] ---
    We can shoot down one after another,
    but there's no end!
[18:42] ---
    Chika, on your two o'clock!
[18:43] ---
    Above you!
[18:54] ---
    They've just got far
    stronger engines onboard!
[18:56] ---
    What are we gonna do?
[19:03] ---
    Chika, here they come! Get ready to evade!
[19:04] ---
    Gotcha!
[19:20] ---
    We got them!
[19:33] ---
    Chika! That was excellent!
[19:34] ---
    Yikes! People can see my
    underwear from down there!
[19:37] ---
    I'll be right down to pick
    you up. You just sit tight.
[19:43] ---
    Engines 2, 4, and 6 are down!
[19:45] ---
    Engines 1 and 7 at 30% output!
[19:47] ---
    This is bad. Real bad!
[19:49] ---
    Then why do you look so excited?
[19:52] ---
    I was just thinking how I feel so alive!
[19:54] ---
    I suppose you won't really
    "feel" it when we're dead.
[19:55] ---
    Helium leaks in sections
    2 and 4 cannot be stopped!
[19:58] ---
    We'll need to abandon the
    ballast on the bow to realign!
[20:01] ---
    They really won't make this
    easy for us, will they?
[20:04] ---
    Mayor!
[20:04] ---
    Coming, coming!
[20:05] ---
    Enemy formation coming in on our nine!
[20:07] ---
    All right, all right!
    I can't handle them all with this thing, you know!
[20:19] ---
    I'm done for!
[20:23] ---
    Mind if we join you, then?
    In this big gamble, I mean big opportunity here?!
[20:28] ---
    Who's that?
[20:29] ---
    Who is that?
[20:29] ---
    Who are you?
[20:30] ---
    The CEO and big boss of
    Elite Industries, Torihei!
[20:34] ---
    Here they come!
[20:43] ---
    Seriously though, what?
[20:52] ---
    Aw, here I was thinking maybe he'd taught you
    a thing or two, but I guess not, huh?
[20:56] ---
    That old man wasn't good for much,
    but he was great in the cockpit
[20:58] ---
    of his Zero there, at least.
[21:01] ---
    He flew it like a hawk!
[21:15] ---
    Buh-bye, now.
[21:20] ---
    Will we meet again?
[21:23] ---
    Nope, I doubt it!
[21:28] ---
    Carelessness is your worst enemy.
[21:30] ---
    Thanks, I'll keep that in mind...
[21:32] ---
    There's something I want to ask you.
[21:34] ---
    Are you the one who shot Allen down?
[21:36] ---
    I sure am.
[21:46] ---
    I wanted to try and soar through that sky
[21:50] ---
    So I wished upon the winds right before me
[21:54] ---
    Our aspirations build us scenery
[21:58] ---
    I wonder how that wind is now
[22:06] ---
    Why do we fight, I wonder
[22:11] ---
    What is our purpose here?
[22:15] ---
    I asked, but the skies do not answer
[22:24] ---
    We all have wings
[22:30] ---
    Far away at the end of all lament
[22:35] ---
    The stories we found
[22:39] ---
    No one can steal these skies away
[22:47] ---
    We will soar unafraid of anything
[22:52] ---
    Because happiness is right here
[23:12] ---
    Come on, over here!
[23:13] ---
    Move, move, move!
[23:16] ---
    What's the situation?
[23:17] ---
    Do you even need to ask?!
[23:19] ---
    It's a load of garbage!
[23:20] ---
    Understood.
[23:21] ---
    Kate is returning with Kylie aboard.
[23:24] ---
    Well I hope you're all in the
    mood for a grand surprise!
[23:27] ---
    Another hole's about to open
[23:29] ---
    Where?
[23:30] ---
    Right here!
[23:31] ---
    Right above Ikesuka.
[23:34] ---
    And you wait until now to tell us?!
[23:35] ---

    Next time on The Magnificent KOTOBUKI,
