[00:13] ---
    Hoping you'd beat me
    in a two-on-one?
[00:16] ---
    No.
[00:22] ---
    Crap.
[00:24] ---
    Huh?
[00:26] ---
    Suzunari-1 scored here.
[00:28] ---
    7. Suzunari-1
[00:28] ---
    The point goes to Suzunari-1.
[00:35] ---
    Unrivaled
[00:39] ---
    What? Why is that?
[00:42] ---
    I guess he took an even bigger hit
    before fighting us.
[00:47] ---
    When agents bail out from Trion loss,
[00:50] ---
    the one who dealt the most damage
    to them gets the point.
[00:55] ---
    Murakami's slash must've been
    the heaviest hit Kageura took.
[01:01] ---
    I've never seen Kage flee like that.
[01:05] ---
    He must've been determined
    not to let Tamakoma score.
[01:11] ---
    Nice escape.
[01:15] ---
    Kitazoe pretended to take Kuga down
    but created an escape route for Kageura.
[01:21] ---
    His judgment was excellent.
[01:25] ---
    It's just like with Nasu.
[01:32] ---
    We misread our enemy's damage.
[01:34] ---
    Don't sweat it.
[01:47] ---
    The more I hope not to lose
    what's most precious to me
[01:51] ---
    They slip through my fingers
    by way of cruel fate
[01:56] ---
    More means of reclaiming
    our stolen time and hearts
[02:00] ---
    I know that's what
    we're painfully lacking
[02:04] ---
    Dark and lonely, inside a mirror
    The siren falls on deaf ears
[02:09] ---
    I stood there, watching you depart
[02:13] ---
    Should be weaker than glass
    A bullet should pierce through
[02:17] ---
    And I pulled the trigger
[02:21] ---
    There's something I need to protect
[02:25] ---
    The hopes of thousands
    are on my shoulders
[02:30] ---
    I will become the wind
[02:34] ---
    And promise to reach our goal
[02:39] ---
    The yearning that connects
    our past and present
[02:46] ---
    Illuminates the path to our future
[02:52] ---
    Embracing our overlapping histories,
    the light radiates brightly
[03:08] ---
    Tamakoma-2 missed the point for
    Captain Kageura but purged two of them.
[03:15] ---
    Riding the momentum,
    they're taking on Suzunari-1.
[03:20] ---
    Don't let those walls separate us.
[03:23] ---
    - Beware of Escudo's range.
    - Roger.
[03:26] ---
    I also saw his Bullet Trigger.
    It's a delayed-action Asteroid.
[03:31] ---
    So he's an All-Rounder
    who fights out front.
[03:35] ---
    Right.
[03:37] ---
    Let's use our long-ranged
    shooting formation.

[03:41] ---
    I'll handle their shots.
[03:52] ---
    Suzunari's new formation again.
[03:55] ---
    This strategy cornered Kageura Squad.
    How will Tamakoma-2 counter?
[04:03] ---
    Now I get it.
[04:04] ---
    Earlier, he shot the Viper straight
    to show it to Suzunari-1.
[04:09] ---
    He faked it as Asteroid to break down
    Murakamisenpai*'s defense with Viper!
[04:17] ---
    Tamakoma-2 has fired back.
[04:19] ---
    Hyuse is a skilled Trion user, but
    Kuruma's fullattack could be on par.
[04:26] ---
    The bullets aren't curving.
    Was I wrong? Wait...
[04:31] ---
    Hyuse, why aren't you
    redirecting your shots?
[04:34] ---
    Wasn't that our plan?
[04:36] ---
    Change of plans. I won't use
    curving bullets in this match.
[04:41] ---
    I'll defeat them differently.
[04:43] ---
    I'll explain why after the battle.
[04:48] ---
    You did everything I requested.
[04:52] ---
    I will fulfill my end of the deal.
[04:55] ---
    I swear to take this team
    to the expedition.
[04:59] ---
    For my sake as well.
[05:02] ---
    So...you have an idea?
[05:05] ---
    I do.
[05:09] ---
    Got it. What should I do?
[05:13] ---
    Once we take hold of Murakami,
[05:15] ---
    help by aiming at Kuruma from behind.
[05:18] ---
    Okay!
[05:21] ---
    There are only enemies above.
[05:24] ---
    If they pause,
    I can hit them via the ceiling.
[05:27] ---
    I wanted to get points
    from Tamakoma,
[05:31] ---
    but I guess I won't have that luxury.
[05:37] ---
    Ema's right around here.
    He's probably aiming up.
[05:41] ---
    Okay, got it. Ready when you are.
[05:45] ---
    Stay sharp.
    Ema can strike up close.
[05:48] ---
    Make him fire.
    Hit him while he's reloading.
[05:56] ---
    A third round of Escudo from Hyuse.
[06:01] ---
    Are they approaching
    instead of firing back?
[06:04] ---
    
- They're coming, Ko!
    
- Roger.
[06:11] ---
    I'll intercept.
[06:18] ---
    Hound!
[06:25] ---
    Kogetsu: Whirlwind.
[06:38] ---
    Murakami's slash has stopped
    Tamakoma-2 from approaching.
[06:43] ---
    The distanced firefight
    seems to be Suzunari-1's plan.
[06:47] ---
    Escudo has much more durability
    than ordinary shields.
[06:52] ---
    But Murakami's Kogetsu: Whirlwind
    and Thruster slash can cut them up.
[06:58] ---
    I bet it'll take more than Escudo
[07:01] ---
    for Tamakoma to repel
    Suzunari's formation.
[07:05] ---
    Obviously, Tamakoma
    wants to approach Kuruma senpai.
[07:09] ---
    But Ko-kun's defense is solid.
[07:12] ---
    Although I admit Tamakoma's duo
    is both A-Rank level,
[07:16] ---
    dealing with Ko-kun focused on defense
    should be a hassle.
[07:21] ---
    They should split the two and fight
    two-on-one like with Kageura Squad.
[07:27] ---
    If it's a numbers game,
[07:29] ---
    Captain Mikumo is on the opposite side
    of the same floor.
[07:33] ---
    Hmm...
[07:35] ---
    Yeah, but he can't receive cover
    from his allies there.
[07:40] ---
    If Suzunari notices his location,
    he'll be shot down in no time.
[07:46] ---
    But they could pull off a pincer strike
    if they get the timing right.
[08:12] ---
    Tamakoma's slowly losing ground.
[08:14] ---
    Suzunari has the lead in this firefight.
[08:21] ---
    It's a pity Kuga-kun
    can't fight from there.
[08:30] ---
    Escudo again?
[08:33] ---
    
- Don't get separated.
    
- Got it.
[08:58] ---
    He grew an Escudo
    on Murakami's body?!
[09:05] ---
    Captain Mikumo made his move.
[09:07] ---
    Captain Kuruma got pierced
    with Asteroid, off-guard.
[09:16] ---
    Thruster.
[09:27] ---
    A pincer attack, two-on-one!
[09:29] ---
    Ko will always prioritize
    defending Kurumasenpai
.
[09:33] ---
    Mikumo-kun must've read that
    and targeted Kurumasenpai
.
[09:38] ---
    A single Kogetsu can't handle
    foes on both sides.
[09:42] ---
    He'll receive one of their attacks!
[09:46] ---
    Kogetsu...
[09:50] ---
    Whirlwind!
[09:57] ---
    - What?!
    - Neat trick.
[10:00] ---
    Trying to cut down both
    in a single move? And...
[10:04] ---
    Ko-kun's faster than the two!
[10:25] ---
    Trion supply system damaged.
[10:28] ---
    Bail out.
[10:39] ---
    Tamakoma's teamwork surpassed his skill.
[10:42] ---
    Agent Murakami bails out!
    And now...

[10:46] ---
    Captain Kuruma can't escape!
[10:57] ---
    He fired!
[10:58] ---
    Trion body limit exceeded. Bail out.
[11:03] ---
    Through the ceiling?
    Was it Azuma-san?
[11:06] ---
    Ema made the shot on Captain Kuruma.
[11:09] ---
    Now, Suzunari-1 is annihilated.
[11:12] ---
    It was Ema?
[11:13] ---
    This is bad!
[11:15] ---
    Too late.
[11:21] ---
    Osamu!
[11:23] ---
    Warning. Critical Trion loss.
[11:27] ---
    Captain Mikumo has taken
    massive damage. However...
[11:31] ---
    The Azuma Squad duo
    is closing in on Agent Ema.
[11:36] ---
    
- Get Ema with Whirlwind when he jumps.
    - Gotcha.
[11:39] ---
    Seems like Yuzuru-kun
    won't have time to reload.
[11:56] ---
    Ema made a free fall escape
    via the atrium!

[12:02] ---
    Not quite...
[12:18] ---
    Captain Azuma was lying in wait!
[12:22] ---
    Agent Ema bails out!
[12:25] ---
    Which means...
[12:27] ---
    This match is down to two teams left,
    Tamakoma-2 and Azuma Squad.
[12:39] ---
    Azuma-san was also in the building?
[12:43] ---
    They got me.
[12:45] ---
    Sweet ceiling shot.
[12:47] ---
    2. Kageura Squad, 4. Tamakoma-2
    6. Azuma Squad, 7. Suzunari-1
[12:48] ---
    These are the current points.
[12:50] ---
    Azuma Squad scored
    and created a three-way tie.
[12:54] ---
    That point came from
    Azuma Squad's signature move.
[12:58] ---
    The Attackers corner their foe
    for the Sniper.
[13:01] ---
    Ema was doomed when he
    got trapped near the atrium.

[13:05] ---
    Okudera and Koarai scored that point.
[13:09] ---
    I see.
[13:11] ---
    Now, Azuma Squad is
    observing Tamakoma from below.
[13:16] ---
    As for Tamakoma-2 on the 6th floor,
[13:18] ---
    Captain Mikumo seems to be hindered,
    missing a leg.
[13:22] ---
    Osamu-kun, you're low on Trion.
    You probably won't last long.
[13:28] ---
    Kageura will get another point...
[13:31] ---
    I failed to estimate
    that Ema might sacrifice himself.
[13:35] ---
    It wasn't your fault.
[13:39] ---
    And it's thanks to you
    we beat Murakami senpai.
[13:43] ---
    Mikumo-kun's likely to bail out.
    That could impact the rankings.
[13:48] ---
    These were the ranks and points
    before Round 7 began.
[13:52] ---
    2. Kageura Squad, 4. Tamakoma-2
    6. Azuma Squad, 7. Suzunari-1
[13:53] ---
    If we add the current points
    from this round...
[13:57] ---
    If Mikumo drops out,
    Kageura Squad will reach 36 points.
[14:01] ---
    Tamakoma-2 will be three points behind.
[14:04] ---
    Tamakoma needs to reach
    B-Rank No. 2 to get in the Away squad.
[14:10] ---
    To surpass the current No. 2,
    Kageura Squad,
[14:14] ---
    they need four more points.
[14:16] ---
    That's tougher than I thought.
[14:19] ---
    They need to wipe out Azuma Squad
[14:21] ---
    and get two points
    for surviving, at least.
[14:25] ---
    - But can they take down Azuma-san?
    - Good point.
[14:29] ---
    Captain Azuma has bailed out
    only once in all six rounds so far.
[14:33] ---
    That was in Round 2, when Yuba, Oji,
    and Katori Squad attacked him at once.
[14:39] ---
    If Captain Mikumo drops from Trion loss,
    Kageura Squad will earn another point.
[14:46] ---
    It's better if Azuma Squad
    takes him down before that.
[14:51] ---
    Well, technically, yes.
[14:53] ---
    But I'm sure manipulating points by
    suicide will incur a penalty.
[14:58] ---
    A voluntary Bail out
    60m away from opponents
[15:02] ---
    can avoid giving Kageura Squad a point.
[15:06] ---
    But that seems impossible
    when they're all in the mall.
[15:11] ---
    Kuga and Hyuse are overwhelming
    our opponents in battle...
[15:16] ---
    But our point gap just won't shrink.
[15:19] ---
    Is this why I felt so uneasy
    before the match?
[15:24] ---
    I'm sorry, Kuga, Hyuse, Chika.
[15:27] ---
    Severe Trion loss.
[15:29] ---
    The rest is on you guys.
[15:31] ---
    Bail out.
[15:33] ---
    Leave it to us.
[15:35] ---
    Yup.
[15:39] ---
    As expected,
    Captain Mikumo bailed out.
[15:42] ---
    A second point for Kageura Squad.
[15:45] ---
    - Oh.
    - It must be Mikumo.
[15:48] ---
    4. Tamakoma-2, 6. Azuma Squad
[15:49] ---
    Both squads are down to three agents.
[15:52] ---
    And Kuga seems to have the most damage.
[15:56] ---
    - I'll support them too.
    - Okay.
[16:00] ---
    How will this battle evolve?
[16:02] ---
    It's three-on-three,
    but their arrays are different.
[16:06] ---
    Right.
[16:07] ---
    The regrouped Azuma Squad
    could have the lead.
[16:11] ---
    But Tamakoma, with their Sniper
    unspotted, also has an advantage.
[16:16] ---
    Depending on how effective Amatori is,
[16:19] ---
    this battle could go either way.
[16:25] ---
    
- We're coming up from the south side.
    
- Okay.*
[16:29] ---
    I'll take the north.
[16:31] ---
    Amatori is still unseen. Stay alert.
[16:33] ---
    Roger!
[16:34] ---
    Hitomi, the Beacons.
[16:36] ---
    Okay. Activating Beacons.
[16:48] ---
    Oh? Azuma Squad has
    activated Dummy Beacons.
[16:52] ---
    They're causing chaos on the radars.
[16:55] ---
    What's this?
[16:57] ---
    Azuma uses these decoys at times.
    I saw it in the logs.
[17:01] ---
    What a number. He's pouring
    tons of Trion into this tactic.
[17:06] ---
    Did he know the mall fight
    would be pivotal?

[17:11] ---
    The Beacons move robotically.
    You can tell them apart from humans.
[17:15] ---
    But if you focus on their movement,
    you'll get sniped.
[17:19] ---
    Be careful.
[17:20] ---
    I see. It's a double-layered diversion.
[17:24] ---
    This is pretty tough.
[17:27] ---
    Azuma Squad is
    using the indoor setting well.
[17:31] ---
    The space is dense with Beacons.
[17:33] ---
    For the few minutes
    the Beacons' Trion lasts,
[17:36] ---
    Azuma Squad has a huge advantage.
[17:39] ---
    Oh, even a former member approves.
[17:42] ---
    Let's see how Tamakoma
    will survive this.
[17:47] ---
    This situation...
[17:49] ---
    It's hard to get a clear shot indoors.
[17:51] ---
    And it's too risky
    to fight close-ranged.
[17:55] ---
    So you'll aim from
    outside the battlefield
[17:58] ---
    and turn the tables with your blast
    if we get overpowered.
[18:04] ---
    Chika! Now's your chance!
[18:07] ---
    Blow a hole in the mall with Meteor!
[18:11] ---
    Open up the confined battlefield!
[18:15] ---
    Roger!
[18:17] ---
    Aim at the side nearest to you
    to keep our mates safe.
[18:21] ---
    Got it!
[18:25] ---
    Meteor!
[19:05] ---
    Ah...
[19:06] ---
    Ugh...
[19:08] ---
    Wha...
[19:09] ---
    What was that?! Half the mall's gone
    from that one blast!
[19:14] ---
    I've seen her Ibis shots
    in the logs, but...
[19:18] ---
    This is what she can do with Meteor...
    Never knew.
[19:22] ---
    4. Tamakoma-2, 6. Azuma Squad
[19:22] ---
    Okudera dropped out
    from that massive explosion!
[19:26] ---
    Tamakoma-2 earns another point!
[19:29] ---
    But previous intel stated
[19:32] ---
    that Agent Amatori can't shoot people,
    did it not?
[19:36] ---
    Yeah, oddly enough.
[19:39] ---
    If she has overcome that weakness,
    they're bound to win.
[19:43] ---
    But if so, she'd have
    shot them earlier.
[19:46] ---
    Maybe that hit was unintentional?
[19:49] ---
    Chika! That was just an accident!
[19:52] ---
    Don't worry. You did great!
[19:54] ---
    R...Right...
[19:57] ---
    That got about half the decoys.
[19:59] ---
    And an Attacker.
    It'll be easier for us to move.
[20:03] ---
    Great support, Chika. Thanks.
[20:06] ---
    Yeah...
[20:11] ---
    This is crazy! I thought she
    couldn't shoot people!

[20:16] ---
    We thought so too, but...
[20:19] ---
    There's a possibility that she
    overcame that just now...
[20:24] ---
    We can't assume she won't shoot us.
    Let's cook up a new plan.
[20:29] ---
    So, what now?
[20:33] ---
    First off, if we stay close
    to Tamakoma's members,
[20:36] ---
    we'll be safe from those blasts.
[20:38] ---
    Right.
[20:40] ---
    Seems like they plan to
    hide close to Tamakoma.
[20:44] ---
    Even if Amatori-chan
    can shoot people,
[20:47] ---
    she won't blast her mates.
[20:49] ---
    She could sacrifice them
    to wipe out foes,
[20:52] ---
    but they'd be screwed
    if a foe survives.
[20:58] ---
    Now then...
[20:59] ---
    The situation has changed vastly.
[21:03] ---
    The condition, forces, positions,
    and intel on each other...

[21:07] ---
    Taking all that into account...
[21:11] ---
    What's our next move?
[21:16] ---
    This is where I get to see how much
    Okudera and Koarai have really grown.
[21:32] ---
    How many points until
    second is all ours?
[21:37] ---
    Three more.
