**[00:15] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
My tears scattered like bits of paper
**[00:18] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
Scared of the unknowable tomorrow
**[00:22] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
I lived the same day over and over,
back and forth
**[00:25] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
But a new morning never came
**[00:29] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
All the reasons to calm down
**[00:31] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
Are just some moments until the crash
**[00:36] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
I'm no longer the one that everyone knows
**[00:39] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
Took off the fragile armor
**[00:44] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
I don't want to lose any more love
**[00:51] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
I don't want to lose any more love
**[00:58] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
There's still no line
between today and tomorrow
**[01:02] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
My waking nightmare doesn't end
**[01:05] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
And yet I won't lose hope
**[01:09] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
And yet there's no night that doesn't end
**[01:15] [SONG] OP Lyrics**
Not here, not here
**[01:45] Meryl**
Undertaker!
**[01:46] Meryl**
Where's Vash?
**[01:49] Wolfwood**
That's none of my business anymore.
**[01:52] Meryl**
Huh?
**[01:55] Meryl**
Stop playing around.
**[01:57] Wolfwood**
What?
**[01:58] Meryl**
Where is Vash?
**[02:00] Wolfwood**
I'm tellin' you, I don't know.
**[02:02] Wolfwood**
Maybe Knives is turning him
into a mummy or something.
**[02:09] Wolfwood**
What was that for?
**[02:10] Meryl**
I'm so disappointed in you.
**[02:12] Wolfwood**
Huh?
**[02:15] Wolfwood**
Who does she think she is?
**[02:31] Knives**
Don't panic, Vash.
**[02:48] Knives**
Now, let's begin.
**[02:56] Conrad**
Initial connection complete.
**[02:58] Conrad**
Vitals are stable.
Looks like the connection was a success.
**[03:03] Conrad**
At last, a hundred years
of my research bears fruit...
**[03:11] Meryl**
Stop this.
**[03:13] Meryl**
I mean it.
**[03:15] Conrad**
You won't shoot me.
**[03:19] Conrad**
It's bulletproof glass. Besides...
**[03:22] Conrad**
Forcefully severing the
connection now would be fatal.
**[03:27] Meryl**
What are you trying to do?
**[03:30] Conrad**
The plants are just husks.
**[03:35] Conrad**
Their true being is located elsewhere.
**[03:39] Conrad**
Not here, but an alternate dimension.
A higher plane.
**[03:45] Conrad**
That's where the energy
we consume from plants originates.
**[03:52] Conrad**
Plants are merely windows that
connect the two dimensions.
**[03:57] Meryl**
So what do you want?!
**[03:59] Conrad**
Why do you think the twins are
the only ones with their own will?
**[04:04] Conrad**
I hypothesize that the key difference
between the plants and Independents
**[04:10] Conrad**
is the existence of a soul.
**[04:12] Conrad**
In order to give the plants souls,
we must connect to the core.
**[04:17] Meryl**
What core?
**[04:18] Conrad**
The manifestation of the
beginning and the end.
**[04:21] Conrad**
The source of all matter and energy.
**[04:24] Conrad**
Access the core. Give plants souls.
**[04:29] Conrad**
That is my objective.
**[04:30] Meryl**
Are you saying... you intend to make every
plant on this planet an Independent?
**[04:46] Vash**
This place...
**[04:48] Knives**
Curious this is the first memory I come to.
**[04:53] Vash**
What do you mean?
**[04:55] Knives**
Do you remember what I vowed that day?
**[04:59] Knives**
I've done it. I found the way to free them.
**[05:04] Knives**
To make it happen, I need your help.
**[05:06] Knives**
Come. Let us save our brethren together.
**[05:11] Vash**
You know why humans abuse plants?
**[05:14] Vash**
Because they crashed on this barren planet.
**[05:17] Vash**
It's our fault!
**[05:19] Knives**
I see.
**[05:22] Vash**
Then be crucified on behalf
of the Sinners, as you wish!
**[05:35] Meryl**
If all the plants become Independent,
humanity won't survive!
**[05:40] Conrad**
We're already in the process
of a slow suicide.
**[05:44] Conrad**
Plant Independence is the
only way to reverse that.
**[05:49] Conrad**
Vash's "window" is special.
**[05:50] Conrad**
He's the only one able to take from
*and* send to the higher dimension.
**[05:55] Meryl**
He'd never agree to something like this!
**[05:58] Conrad**
That is why he shall be remade.
**[06:00] Meryl**
"Remade"?
**[06:05] Conrad**
Second connection successful.
**[06:08] Conrad**
We can now interfere with
every plant using Vash as a window.
**[06:13] Conrad**
This is the point of no return.
**[06:18] Meryl**
Vash! Snap out of it!
**[06:21] Meryl**
Vash!
**[06:24] Conrad**
Initializing assimilation, absorption,
awakening, and memory manipulation.
**[06:29] Meryl**
Memory manipulation?
**[06:31] Conrad**
Knives.
**[06:32] Knives**
It's going well. I'm heading deeper now.
**[06:38] Knives**
Soon, you won't recognize anything.
**[06:41] Knives**
Not me, not the world...
**[06:46] Knives**
Nothing.
**[06:50] Wolfwood**
I owe you one.
**[07:00] Wolfwood**
*Gotta make a choice, huh?*
**[07:10] Rosa**
Leave this town!
**[07:14] Tonis**
You said you'd save us.
**[07:17] Vash**
Tonis...
**[07:19] Rollo**
You said you'd save us.
**[07:22] Vash**
Rollo!
**[07:30] Wolfwood**
You want us to live on,
even if it's as monsters?
**[07:35] Wolfwood**
How could you be so irresponsible?
You can't even take care of us.
**[07:42] Wolfwood & Knives**
Kill him. Put him out of his misery.
**[07:45] Monev**
Kill...
**[07:48] Monev**
Kill...!
**[07:49] Vash**
No, Rollo.
**[07:52] Vash**
That's enough!
**[08:07] Knives**
You're no hero who'll save everyone.
**[08:11] Knives**
You're just a coward who can't
stand to watch anyone die.
**[08:19] Vash**
Where am I?
**[08:22] Vash**
My hand...
**[08:26] Vash**
This isn't real!
It's a dream you're showing me...
**[08:30] Vash**
It's fake!
**[08:41] Vash**
I have to get out of here.
**[08:50] Vash**
I have to find the exit.
**[08:57] Conrad**
Synchronization at 40 percent and climbing.
**[09:00] Knives**
I won't let you get away, Vash.
**[09:26] Vash**
This is...
**[09:28] Young Nai**
That's right. It's the Big Fall.
**[09:33] Young Nai**
What will they think once
they learn it was your fault?
**[09:41] Young Nai**
Don't you worry.
**[09:44] Young Nai**
They're just feeble creatures
that don't even live for a century.
**[09:49] Young Nai**
Now forget.
**[09:51] Young Nai**
Let go and relax.
**[09:59] Vash**
Who were they again...?
**[10:06] Conrad**
Synchronization at 70 percent.
**[10:08] Conrad**
Seventy, eighty... What speed!
**[10:20] Meryl**
What's going on?
**[10:26] Meryl**
These are... They're like the flora!
**[10:30] Conrad**
What is this, Knives?
**[10:32] Knives**
Don't panic.
**[10:54] Young Nai**
Release your powers, Vash!
Let's remake the world!
**[11:15] Conrad**
Synchronization at 90 percent...
**[11:20] Conrad**
Progress has stalled?
**[11:44] Young Nai**
That woman...
**[11:46] Young Nai**
There you are!
**[11:49] Young Nai**
Rem Saverem!
**[11:54] Conrad**
Love for humanity versus...
**[11:58] Conrad**
love for a younger brother.
**[12:05] Conrad**
It will determine the fate of the world.
**[12:14] Shopkeeper**
Quite an appetite you've got there.
You on your way home?
**[12:17] Chuck Lee**
Nope.
**[12:17] Shopkeeper**
I see.
**[12:19] Soldier 11-A**
Haven't you heard? The Humanoid
Typhoon snuck into the city.
**[12:23] Shopkeeper**
What? No way.
**[12:25] Soldier 11-B**
That's why we're working all night.
**[12:39] Meryl**
Vash!
**[12:41] Meryl**
Don't get taken in! Wake up!
**[12:47] (Flashback) Young Vash**
A "flower"?
**[12:48] (Flashback) Rem**
Yes. This one's a geranium.
**[12:51] (Flashback) Rem**
There were lots of other
flowers back on Earth, too.
**[12:54] (Flashback) Young Vash**
Can you eat it?
**[12:55] (Flashback) Rem**
Not this kind, I'm afraid.
**[12:58] (Flashback) Young Nai**
So it's ornamental, right, Rem?
**[13:01] (Flashback) Young Nai**
Just like the one in the plant room.
**[13:05] (Flashback) Rem**
That's right, Nai. You're very observant.
**[13:10] (Flashback) Young Vash**
Too bad it's not edible...
**[13:12] (Flashback) Young Nai**
You're always thinking about eating.
**[13:15] (Flashback) Young Vash**
Well, sorry that's all I'm good for.
**[13:17] (Flashback) Young Nai**
That's not what I said.
**[13:19] (Flashback) Young Vash**
It's what you meant!
**[13:20] (Flashback) Young Nai**
What was that?
**[13:20] (Flashback) Rem**
Gosh, you're always bickering.
**[13:23] (Flashback) Rem**
Nai, just because you're
the one with special powers—
**[13:26] (Flashback) Young Nai**
Yeah, yeah. It doesn't mean
I should show off, right?
**[13:30] (Flashback) Rem**
The power you received is wonderful,
but promise me this.
**[13:34] (Flashback) Rem**
When everyone wakes up from cryosleep—
**[13:36] (Flashback) Young Nai**
Never show it to anyone but you.
**[13:39] (Flashback) Rem**
And even if you don't need to—
**[13:41] (Flashback) Young Nai & Rem**
Pretend to eat and drink.
**[13:43] (Flashback) Young Nai**
I know.
**[13:47] (Flashback) Young Nai**
You should be more worried about Vash.
**[13:49] (Flashback) Young Nai**
At this rate, he'll really just be a human.
**[13:55] (Flashback) Rem**
That's fine. There's no need to
compare yourself to anyone else.
**[14:00] (Flashback) Rem**
You are who you are,
and that's all you need to be.
**[14:04] (Flashback) Rem**
You too, Nai. Come here.
**[14:08] (Flashback) Rem**
Powers or no powers,
both you boys are still precious to me.
**[14:15] (Flashback) Rem**
I love you.
**[14:20] Vash**
This must have meant something to you, too.
**[14:23] Knives**
You really think so?
**[14:47] (Flashback) Young Vash**
This is bad, Nai.
**[14:49] (Flashback) Young Nai**
You have to be wondering
what Rem is hiding, too.
**[15:09] (Flashback) Young Nai**
Me?
**[15:10] (Flashback) Young Vash**
And me, too.
**[15:14] (Flashback) Young Nai**
Project Code "Type T"?
**[15:17] (Flashback) Young Nai**
Another Independent like us
was born on this ship...
**[15:21] (Flashback) Young Nai**
Fifty years ago.
**[15:22] (Flashback) Young Vash**
The records are being kept... here?
**[15:29] (Flashback) Young Vash**
H-Huh?
**[15:32] (Flashback) Young Nai**
What?
**[15:53] (Flashback) Rem**
Nai! Vash!
**[15:58] Vash**
I know that humans
did terrible things to her.
**[16:02] Vash**
I understand why you'd hate them.
**[16:04] Vash**
But even so...
**[16:06] Knives**
You still don't get it?
**[16:08] Knives**
That was but one grain of sand.
**[16:34] (Flashback) Young Nai**
Humanity repeats the same tragedies.
**[16:37] (Flashback) Young Nai**
They deplore conflict,
yet no era is ever free from war.
**[16:43] (Flashback) Young Nai**
History is proof.
**[16:47] (Flashback) Young Vash**
Reading that again?
**[16:50] (Flashback) Young Nai**
Humanity never learns.
**[16:55] (Flashback) Young Vash**
That's not true.
**[16:58] (Flashback) Young Vash**
Rem told me.
**[17:00] (Flashback) Young Vash**
When we were born, she vowed
never to let that tragedy occur again.
**[17:06] (Flashback) Young Vash**
So...
**[17:07] (Flashback) Young Vash**
let's have faith in humanity.
**[17:19] Knives**
Without any powers,
you're too weak to live as a plant.
**[17:24] Knives**
That's why you craved the
love of humans over all else.
**[17:28] Knives**
You needed to smile, show your charm,
and behave like a harmless pet.
**[17:34] Knives**
You'll never find happiness that way.
I had to protect you.
**[17:40] Knives**
That's why I crashed the ships.
**[17:44] Vash**
It's my fault?
**[17:46] Knives**
I did it all for you.
**[18:07] Knives**
This is it! The final memory...
**[18:09] Conrad**
Synchronization at 99 percent.
**[18:12] Meryl**
Please, make it stop!
**[18:13] Meryl**
It's not too late!
**[18:15] Conrad**
It is indeed too late.
About 150 years too late.
**[18:25] Meryl**
Vash!
**[18:27] Meryl**
Artillery fire?
**[18:29] Soldier 11-C**
A giant unknown organism has appeared
in the central tower! Need backup!
**[18:35] Chuck Lee**
What is that thing?
**[18:37] Conrad**
We're so close...
**[18:43] Knives**
That woman was the cause
of all the confusion.
**[18:47] Knives**
What you tried to believe was love,
Vash, was just a bunch of excuses.
**[18:54] Knives**
Mere silly fantasies.
**[19:00] Vash**
No! Rem!
**[19:03] Vash**
Please! Don't leave me!
**[19:07] Knives**
I'll save you.
**[19:24] Conrad**
Synchronization at 100 percent.
**[19:26] Conrad**
Memory manipulation and
assimilation complete.
**[19:36] Knives**
I've finally got him back!
**[19:43] Knives**
Happy birthday, Vash.
**[20:02] Conrad**
Third connection successful.
**[20:05] Conrad**
That's...
**[20:07] Conrad**
the entrance to the higher plane!
**[20:30] Soldier**
This is the Third City JuLai
to the Alliance of Cities!
**[20:33] Soldier**
Request immediate assistance!
**[20:35] Knives**
Flaming arrows will vaporize the cities,
and a flood will purify the lands...
**[20:41] Knives**
Today is the battle of Har Megiddo.
**[20:58] Knives**
I'm going to enter the higher plane
and directly touch the core.
**[21:04] Conrad**
Be careful, Knives.
**[21:09] Meryl**
You're...
**[21:12] Conrad**
It's been a long journey.
**[21:15] Conrad**
Until Knives realized his wishes,
I was not even permitted death.
**[21:21] Conrad**
But it'll all be over soon.
**[21:28] Knives**
The human race and its zealous
assertion of dominance ends here.
**[21:55] Knives**
We Independents...
**[21:58] Knives**
will bring a new order to this world!
***SIGN*** #11 To a New World

I'm moving forward, I'm standing still
**[23:04] [SONG] ED Lyrics**
Tell the people who are praying
**[23:07] [SONG] ED Lyrics**
But today this flower
before me is praising you
**[23:13] [SONG] ED Lyrics**
My song is a song of joy and wishes
**[23:16] [SONG] ED Lyrics**
Yes, I'm reaching out
**[23:19] [SONG] ED Lyrics**

My song is a song of joy and wishes
