[00:23] ---
    Lady Suzumiya,
    we have the scout fleet reports.
[00:27] ---
    We've found the enemy fleet.
[00:29] ---
    The enemy fleet is at ecliptic 8:20.
[00:32] ---
    Distance: 6.3 AU...
[00:34] ---
    ...and approaching at 60% of light speed.
[00:38] ---
    Total number is roughly 15,000 ships.
[00:41] ---
    They're here.
[00:42] ---
    We're going to annihilate them!
    All ships, battle stations!
[00:47] ---
    Aye aye, ma'am. All ships to battle stations.
[00:50] ---
    All reactors to combat output.
[00:52] ---
    Propulsion to initial battle speed.
[00:54] ---
    Three, two, one, ignition.
[00:58] ---
    S-Supergravitational torpedo?
    Begin loading all cannons.
[01:03] ---
    That and the superpro... proton cannon?
[01:07] ---
    Um, a-all cannons to fireable status!
[01:10] ---
    Starting electronic warfare.
    Range boosters maxed.
[01:13] ---
    All ECM and ECCMs are operational.
[01:16] ---
    Okay, all ships at full speed!
[01:19] ---
    Hey, Haruhi, isn't it better to pull back a bit?
[01:23] ---
    Your fleet's out too far.
[01:25] ---
    I want to blast beams
    and missiles at the enemy too!
[01:29] ---
    In shogi or chess, the king never
    tramples into enemy territory.
[01:34] ---
    You have a point there...
[01:37] ---
    Then you guys do something.
[01:40] ---
    Find the enemy leader and bombard him.
[01:43] ---
    Win for sure.
[01:45] ---
    Take those worthless computer
    club fools and thrash them to bits!
[01:53] ---
    Wouldn't it be better
    to hurry and raise the white flag?
[01:56] ---
    Well, I guess that's out of the question.
[02:05] ---
    The answer is always in my heart.
[02:12] ---
    The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
[02:20] ---
    I don't know why, but I chose you.
[02:26] ---
    It won't stop now. Mr. Destiny deemed it so.
[02:32] ---
    I believe it's boring to just mimic.
[02:39] ---
    You'll be right, so I'll do what I feel as I feel it.
[02:47] ---
    It's an adventure, right, right?
[02:49] ---
    In this world where truth becomes fiction.
[02:54] ---
    We become stronger
    because we have dreams...
[02:58] ---
    ...not for the sake of someone.
[03:01] ---
    Please come with me.
[03:04] ---
    See me and my endlessly free self.
[03:10] ---
    Today's present that becomes
    tomorrow's past is the miracle.
[03:16] ---
    Let's grab the future.
[03:22] ---
    I believe you...
[03:31] ---
    One Week Ago
[03:32] ---
    The season is autumn.
[03:34] ---
    The arts festival
    somehow ended well days ago.
[03:37] ---
    The campus regained its calm.
[03:39] ---
    In other words, plain,
    everyday life had started again...
[03:42] ---
    "The Day of Sagittarius"
    ...though I should hold off calling the time...
[03:42] ---
    The Day of Sagittarius
[03:45] ---
    ...after school in SOS Brigade HQ "plain."
[03:49] ---
    Spending a relaxing time with
    a future girl, an alien, and an esper...
[03:53] ---
    ...and keeping sane and objective
    must make me a big shot.
[03:58] ---
    Maybe Lacan'll scout me.
[04:01] ---
    You seem terribly worried.
[04:03] ---
    Not really.
[04:07] ---
    I'm impressed that I adapted
    in this irrational space normally.
[04:15] ---
    Then should I give you some words of praise?
[04:19] ---
    You praising me won't please me.
[04:21] ---
    It'll just make me worry
    that you have ulterior motives.
[04:25] ---
    True enough.
[04:27] ---
    Sorry to make you wait.
[04:29] ---
    I bought some stem tea called karigane...
[04:32] ---
    I hope I brewed it well.
[04:35] ---
    No, if Miss Asahina's
    divine hands put it forth...
[04:38] ---
    ...even tap water is better
    than thawed snow from the Alps.
[04:43] ---
    Please savor it.
[04:46] ---
    Say, where's Miss Suzumiya?
[04:47] ---
    In charge of cleanup.
[04:50] ---
    When she's not around, it sure is peaceful...
[04:56] ---
    Yes, coming.
[05:01] ---
    The computer club chief...
[05:04] ---
    The brigade leader is out?
[05:07] ---
    What is it?
[05:10] ---
    I'd like you to accept this first.
[05:14] ---
    Inside is game software.
[05:17] ---
    It's an original we developed in our club.
[05:20] ---
    We exhibited it at the festival,
    but perhaps you didn't see?
[05:24] ---
    I don't recall.
[05:25] ---
    The only festival memory I want...
[05:28] ---
    ...is Miss Asahina's yakisoba café costume.
[05:31] ---
    I see. Perhaps the location was bad...
[05:35] ---
    So what do you want?
[05:37] ---
    That's right.
[05:38] ---
    We'd like to challenge you to that game!
[05:41] ---
    A duel! A duel using a game!
[05:44] ---
    A serious duel.
[05:46] ---
    We want to duel you!
[05:47] ---
    Please, don't repeat the word
[05:48] ---
    A duel, a duel!
[05:48] ---
    "duel" so many times.
[05:50] ---
    The long strife between us will come to an end...
[05:50] ---
    If Haruhi's ultrasharp ears hear...
[05:55] ---
    Chief!
[05:56] ---
    A duel? Who are you, anyway?
[06:00] ---
    A secret syndicate that my
    SOS Brigade is in the way of.
[06:05] ---
    You won't succeed.
[06:06] ---
    It's a hero's duty to destroy evil
    and shine light on dark shadows.
[06:11] ---
    Haruhi, listen before you kick them.
[06:15] ---
    Kyon, a duel is a duel
    from the moment it's mentioned.
[06:19] ---
    Whatever the loser says is just excuses!
[06:22] ---
    Wait. The guys from next door?
[06:25] ---
    Why'd they come to pick a fight?
[06:27] ---
    That's exactly what they were about to explain.
[06:31] ---
    Oh, really?
[06:34] ---
    The SOS Brigade's so unfair...
[06:37] ---
    In any case, we the computer club
    challenge you to a duel!
[06:41] ---
    A duel, huh?
[06:43] ---
    Chief!
[06:45] ---
    I'd like to move the story forward already.
[06:48] ---
    So what is it?
[06:50] ---
    Play our game against us,
    and if we win, we'd like it returned.
[06:54] ---
    Returned? What?
[06:56] ---
    If you're not using it, give the PC back!
[06:59] ---
    I'm using it.
[07:01] ---
    We edited the movie with this too.
[07:04] ---
    I did that.
[07:05] ---
    Made a homepage.
[07:07] ---
    Me again.
[07:08] ---
    You haven't updated
    that homepage much at all!
[07:12] ---
    So he's the bored guy
    daily checking the site...
[07:15] ---
    The time with the camel cricket too...
[07:17] ---
    But when I said that I wanted it,
    you said you'd give it to me.
[07:22] ---
    Kyon, you recall, right?
[07:24] ---
    Was that so?
[07:24] ---
    That deal's off! I'll fight to the end!
[07:28] ---
    I can even forget the trauma
    of when my PC was abducted.
[07:33] ---
    No, I want to forget. Both of us should...
[07:37] ---
    In any case, we want you to fight us!
[07:40] ---
    Well, all right. If you want to
    that much, then we'll accept.
[07:45] ---
    So what'll you put at stake?
[07:48] ---
    Let's see...
[07:50] ---
    A new computer for each member,
    four of them in total.
[07:54] ---
    That's all right?
[07:55] ---
    Yeah.
[07:56] ---
    Really? I won't let you
    call it off in the middle, okay?
[08:00] ---
    I won't. I promise.
[08:02] ---
    What confidence.
[08:04] ---
    All right.
[08:05] ---
    You don't have girls in your club, right?
[08:09] ---
    If you win, we'll give her
    to you computer club guys.
[08:13] ---
    I'm sure you'll make use of Yuki.
[08:16] ---
    After all, four PCs at stake
    against one doesn't match up.
[08:20] ---
    No, Nagato is way different
[08:20] ---
    Well, uh, um...
[08:23] ---
    in specs compared to four PCs...
[08:25] ---
    ...though you're unaware.
[08:26] ---
    What? You want Mikuru instead?
[08:32] ---
    You be the prize.
[08:34] ---
    If you're betting, why not bet your own body?
[08:37] ---
    Don't be selfish.
[08:38] ---
    What are you talking about?
    A divine and inobtrusive figure...
[08:42] ---
    That's the SOS Brigade's leader.
[08:45] ---
    I won't give up this role
    unless it's someone I feel is "the one."
[08:49] ---
    You'll stay even after you graduate?
[08:52] ---
    So which do you prefer?
[08:55] ---
    Well...
[08:56] ---
    If you insist, well, I guess I'll have to do.
[09:00] ---
    No, I'll definitely decline that...
[09:04] ---
    The game is a five-on-five,
    online space battle simulation.
[09:08] ---
    The match is at 4:00 PM next week.
[09:11] ---
    Till then, brush up. We'll be
    disappointed if you're too weak.
[09:16] ---
    He acts like he's won.
[09:17] ---
    It's generous to pay your prize up front.
[09:20] ---
    Yup, we should have the same
    number of PCs as members.
[09:25] ---
    She acts like she's won too.
[09:28] ---
    This upcoming duel...
    For now, let's not cheat.
[09:32] ---
    Cheat?
[09:33] ---
    Alien, future, and esper cheating
    methods are prohibited this time.
[09:40] ---
    We'll fight fairly and come to a fair ending.
[09:43] ---
    That's best.
[09:44] ---
    You don't mind losing?
[09:47] ---
    Right. Even if we do, the only
    thing lost is the PC we stole.
[09:51] ---
    We won't be troubled.
[09:53] ---
    Though I'll need to move
    the Asahina gallery inside the PC.
[09:59] ---
    I don't mean the PC.
[10:01] ---
    Miss Suzumiya doesn't like to lose in anything.
[10:05] ---
    Mikuru, we'll have
[10:05] ---
    When a loss draws near,
[10:06] ---
    she creates an enclosed space...
[10:06] ---
    extensive game training starting tomorrow.
[10:08] ---
    ...and unwittingly lets "that" loose.
[10:09] ---
    We'll go all out, so psych up and keep up!
[10:11] ---
    That's fine?
[10:12] ---
    I don't care.
[10:14] ---
    Even with her,
    it's about time she learns something.
[10:19] ---
    What? That's gross.
[10:20] ---
    No, I just got a bit jealous...
[10:23] ---
    ...of the unseen trust that exists
    between you and Miss Suzumiya.
[10:28] ---
    I'm totally lost.
[10:30] ---
    Let's say we lose the game in one week.
[10:34] ---
    But you're thinking she won't
    create an enclosed space even so.
[10:40] ---
    You have such trust.
[10:43] ---
    Also, Miss Suzumiya believes
    you'll lead our game to victory.
[10:48] ---
    This is also trust.
[10:50] ---
    She spoke of risking her own members...
[10:53] ---
    ...because she's convinced she can't lose.
[10:56] ---
    Even Admiral Nelson will be all blue.
[10:56] ---
    She'll never verbalize that though.
[10:59] ---
    You two are bound by a sense of trust
    that could be said to be ideal.
[11:10] ---
    "The Day of Sagittarius III," huh?
[11:12] ---
    Three? They have a one and two?
[11:15] ---
    Sounds like a name trying to
    sound cool but ending up cryptic.
[11:20] ---
    When you say that,
    what about the "SOS Brigade"?
[11:24] ---
    The game itself is very simple.
[11:27] ---
    The five players are each given
    a fleet of 15,000 spaceships...
[11:31] ---
    ...and control them via their computers.
[11:33] ---
    You win when you destroy all enemies
    or blow up their flagship.
[11:39] ---
    What are these bright spots?
[11:41] ---
    The scouting range.
[11:43] ---
    You can only find enemies
    and obstacles within this.
[11:47] ---
    We can't strike first unless
    we increase this range with scouts.
[11:52] ---
    Prompt positioning and predicting actions...
[11:54] ---
    ...seems the key to winning or losing.
[11:57] ---
    Um, so you can't see
    the enemy in the beginning?
[12:01] ---
    Kyon... um, I'm not good at this stuff,
    so I don't really understand.
[12:07] ---
    It's all right. It's a game,
    so just play as you see fit.
[12:11] ---
    See fit? Of course not!
[12:13] ---
    We'll crush the computer club
    till they can't stand.
[12:16] ---
    We'll practice hard now.
    I'm the leader of course.
[12:20] ---
    Now, all of you, battle positions!
[12:23] ---
    Nagato'll put up a good fight...
[12:25] ---
    I take it back.
[12:27] ---
    No good.
[12:28] ---
    First Day of Training
[12:28] ---
    All ships, charge!
[12:33] ---
    Jeez!
[12:34] ---
    Second Day of Training
[12:34] ---
    All ships, charge!
[12:38] ---
    Jeez!
[12:39] ---
    Third Day of Training
[12:39] ---
    All ships, charge!
[12:42] ---
    Jeez!
[12:43] ---
    Fourth Day of Training
[12:43] ---
    All ships, charge!
[12:45] ---
    Jeez!
[12:46] ---
    Fifth Day of Training
[12:46] ---
    Beaten again!
[12:48] ---
    Kyon, this game's irritating me.
[12:51] ---
    Because you keep charging.
    That's a mistake to begin with.
[12:54] ---
    Jeez, it's so cumbersome.
[12:57] ---
    I like easier-to-understand things!
[13:03] ---
    It might be me,
    but it seems she's having fun.
[13:06] ---
    I'll make it clear again. No cheating this time.
[13:14] ---
    The Day of Battle
[13:16] ---
    Today, skies are clear, but waves are high.
[13:16] ---
    SOS Brigade Space Force: Lady Haruhi's fleet
[13:19] ---
    The empire's fate rests on this battle.
[13:22] ---
    This fight is only the start.
[13:24] ---
    We'll clear all obstacles...
[13:24] ---
    Same Force: Koizumi's Fleet
[13:26] ---
    ...and the SOS Brigade will be
    known all over the universe!
[13:29] ---
    Same Force: Mikuru's Fleet
[13:29] ---
    I'll confer with the school board...
[13:32] ---
    ...and make SOS Brigades in every public school!
[13:33] ---
    Same Force: Yuki's Fleet
[13:36] ---
    We'll win of course,
    but slacking off is forbidden!
[13:39] ---
    Same Force: Kyon's Fleet
[13:39] ---
    We'll pulverize them!
[13:42] ---
    What's her confidence made of?
    I'd like some, even two milligrams.
[13:47] ---
    Yeah? Should I inject some?
[13:54] ---
    Well? Did it work?
[13:56] ---
    What good does this staring game do?
[13:58] ---
    I charged the glare
    with energy and sent it to you.
[14:02] ---
    Like your body warming up
    or your sweat being stimulated.
[14:06] ---
    You felt that, right?
[14:08] ---
    No, but I felt my life in danger.
[14:10] ---
    It's about to start.
[14:24] ---
    All ships, move forward!
[14:24] ---
    1600 Hours: Battle Begins
[14:26] ---
    And so the game began...
[14:28] ---
    ...and we finally found
    the enemy fleet just now.
[14:32] ---
    Thanks to Nagato, we somehow
    grasped enemy movements.
[14:36] ---
    She scouts while battling.
    What a show of bravery.
[14:40] ---
    Clueless gamer Miss Asahina
    and rushing idiot Haruhi are useless.
[14:45] ---
    It's already three on five.
    We're completely behind.
[14:49] ---
    They're using the kakuyoku
    formation to lure us into range.
[14:53] ---
    It's best to stay with defense.
[14:55] ---
    Easily said. I'm fine with that,
    but what would Haruhi say?
[15:01] ---
    What?
[15:02] ---
    Another fleet's attacking us?
    When did they advance?
[15:06] ---
    Whoa, here too. How'd they
    figure out where we were?
[15:10] ---
    What are you doing? Retaliate already!
[15:13] ---
    I'd do that even without prompting.
[15:15] ---
    Rotate 90 degrees starboard!
    Open all cannons!
[15:18] ---
    You sound like you're playing seriously.
[15:21] ---
    Targeting enemy fleet! All beam cannons, fire!
[15:25] ---
    Wait, what?
[15:26] ---
    Damn, they ran.
[15:28] ---
    Here too.
[15:29] ---
    They shot as they pleased and vanished.
[15:33] ---
    Hit-and-run tactics...
[15:34] ---
    Oh, again. From the side.
[15:37] ---
    Picking away...
[15:38] ---
    What are you so slow for? They'll get away!
[15:41] ---
    I know. I'm helpless.
    They're slippery, coming right and left.
[15:46] ---
    Then launch the Gunda(beep)!
[15:48] ---
    Go! Not!
[15:49] ---
    Um... Um...
[15:52] ---
    Where am I right now?
[15:55] ---
    I can't take any more! All fleets, full speed!
[15:58] ---
    I'll find the enemy leader
    and pummel him down!
[16:02] ---
    I said not to advance!
[16:04] ---
    Leave this to us.
[16:05] ---
    Enough, move! The leaders
    will duke it out one-on-one!
[16:09] ---
    We don't know where he is.
[16:11] ---
    I'll find him!
[16:13] ---
    I said stop!
[16:14] ---
    Calm down first. Then we'll intercept...
[16:17] ---
    Where is everyone?
[16:19] ---
    Move it!
[16:21] ---
    I can't even if I wanted to!
[16:23] ---
    We've lost...
[16:26] ---
    What the?
[16:27] ---
    I see. A split fleet.
[16:27] ---
    Yuki [split] 12
[16:30] ---
    Split fleet?
[16:31] ---
    It was at the end of the manual.
[16:34] ---
    It seems you can split the fleet
    and control 20 separate squadrons.
[16:37] ---
    Yuki [split] 07
[16:38] ---
    But controlling so many at once
[16:40] ---
    Yuki [split] 20
[16:40] ---
    is impossible for humans...
[16:43] ---
    ...so nobody did it.
[16:45] ---
    Impossible for humans, huh.
[16:48] ---
    U-Um...
[16:50] ---
    If you're so forceful, wouldn't it break?
[16:53] ---
    Losers will be punished with
    ten stark-naked schoolyard laps...
[16:57] ---
    ...shouting, "Green Martians
    are chasing me," all the while!
[17:01] ---
    I won't let you give up!
[17:02] ---
    You know...
[17:05] ---
    Um, Miss Nagato? What in
    the world are you doing right now?
[17:10] ---
    Hey, Nagato.
[17:11] ---
    What?
[17:12] ---
    I told you that cheating wasn't allowed.
[17:15] ---
    I am not.
[17:16] ---
    I am not using special information controls.
[17:20] ---
    I am following all rules.
[17:22] ---
    R-Really?
[17:23] ---
    The ones cheating are
    those in the computer club.
[17:27] ---
    They are? What are they doing?
[17:30] ---
    Their scouting mode has been turned off.
[17:33] ---
    Everything on the map,
    including our positions, is already obvious.
[17:37] ---
    That was a simple explanation for you.
[17:41] ---
    We can't see them, but they can
    see us. No wonder we can't win.
[17:47] ---
    Right. We had no other choice but to lose.
[17:51] ---
    I would like to correct that.
[17:54] ---
    I get that they were cheating.
[17:56] ---
    But that said, if we cheat
    even more and use magic to fight...
[18:02] ---
    ...we'll be like them in the end.
[18:03] ---
    No, lower.
[18:05] ---
    Nothing defies your orders.
[18:07] ---
    I'd like to correct the program
    at Earth's technological levels.
[18:13] ---
    It will only make conditions equal.
[18:16] ---
    Please approve it.
[18:24] ---
    Could it be you want to win?
[18:35] ---
    All right, do it.
[18:40] ---
    Right.
[18:42] ---
    All right...
[18:43] ---
    Using squadron mode to scout
    scared me, but we're still ahead.
[18:48] ---
    After all, the enemy's in plain sight.
[18:50] ---
    We'll wrap it up soon.
[18:52] ---
    Destroy all enemies!
    Decimate the SOS Brigade!
[18:59] ---
    Scouting mode is on!
[19:01] ---
    Enemy fleet lost!
[19:04] ---
    Our blind spot's being attacked!
    We can't read enemy movements!
[19:09] ---
    What are you doing?
    Turn scouting mode off now!
[19:12] ---
    No good!
[19:12] ---
    Access denied
[19:12] ---
    Fully locked
[19:13] ---
    Denied
[19:13] ---
    Unable to change
[19:13] ---
    It's locked, and access to change it is denied!
[19:17] ---
    N-No way!
[19:18] ---
    Enemy found! Fire, fire, fire!
[19:24] ---
    Fall, daddy longlegs!
[19:25] ---
    Hey, Kyon, that's my enemy!
[19:28] ---
    Two enemy fleets destroyed.
    The other fleets are in chaos too.
[19:32] ---
    The confusion of Miss Nagato's
    squadrons has turned it around.
[19:38] ---
    But the leader's still standing.
    How should we take him?
[19:42] ---
    Not a problem. I will herd him to you.
[19:45] ---
    D-Damn it...
[19:47] ---
    He's flying in perfectly.
[19:50] ---
    A trapped mouse.
[19:52] ---
    Um, you can shoot this?
[19:54] ---
    I don't really get it, but you guys did well!
[19:57] ---
    All ships, fire at full force!
    Burn their leader with the fires of hell!
[20:10] ---
    Don't let him get away!
[20:24] ---
    G-Glory to the computer club!
[20:34] ---
    I lost. An utter loss.
[20:36] ---
    I'll admit it. I apologize.
[20:39] ---
    I'm sorry.
[20:41] ---
    But I can't believe game contents
    were rewritten during play...
[20:48] ---
    What are you muttering?
[20:50] ---
    Still, you remember the promise, right?
[20:52] ---
    All these PCs are ours.
    I won't let you say you've forgotten!
[20:57] ---
    Hey, you...
[20:59] ---
    Who did it?
[21:02] ---
    The hacker with the skills
    to make it anywhere in the world...
[21:05] ---
    Well, I have a good idea.
[21:12] ---
    Something to consider when you have time...
[21:15] ---
    Would you attend some
    computer club activities? Please!
[21:18] ---
    He's recruiting her.
[21:20] ---
    Hey, you can't rent Yuki without permission.
[21:23] ---
    Listen, she's the silent girl,
    a must in the SOS Brigade.
[21:27] ---
    I set eyes on her first!
[21:30] ---
    Hey, wait.
[21:33] ---
    Even Nagato has a few things that interest her.
[21:37] ---
    She seemed to be having fun
    pounding at the keyboard.
[21:42] ---
    I'm sure she gets tired of
    doing nothing but observing Haruhi.
[21:47] ---
    Even alien organic humanoid interfaces...
[21:51] ---
    ...need to take their
    mind off things sometimes.
[21:55] ---
    Do as you please.
[21:57] ---
    When you feel like it, head next door...
[22:00] ---
    ...and play around with their PCs.
[22:06] ---
    I see...
[22:10] ---
    Maybe once in a while.
[22:11] ---
    Really? Oh, I'm thankful!
[22:14] ---
    So she says.
[22:15] ---
    Well, if she's fine with it...
[22:17] ---
    Oh, and...
[22:19] ---
    You're the losers.
[22:21] ---
    Losers have to listen to
    all the winners' demands.
[22:25] ---
    All of you need to swear
    absolute loyalty to me.
[22:30] ---
    Yeah, you won't have it bad.
[22:32] ---
    Work hard and I may let you
    be real brigade members.
[22:36] ---
    Koizumi, make a contract right away.
[22:39] ---
    As you wish, Your Excellency.
[22:49] ---
    If we figured out the globe
    like we would a riddle...
[22:55] ---
    ...we could all go anywhere together.
[22:58] ---
    To the end of time, BOOOON!
[23:01] ---
    This feeling that is a warp and a loop.
[23:05] ---
    With an imagination that engulfs
    anything and everything, let's play.
[23:11] ---
    Something on one sunny day,
    more fun than any magic possible...
[23:16] ---
    ...endlessly pours down. It's not impossible.
[23:22] ---
    When we meet again tomorrow,
    we're all humming as we smile.
[23:28] ---
    Let's gather happiness. Such a thing is so easy.
[23:33] ---
    Chase after me. Try to catch it.
[23:38] ---
    A big dream... You like dreams, right?
