You are...

...despicable.

I don't need that thing.

Kouichi! You need to get up, or you'll be late!

Yesterday, there was yet another accident involving

the Special Self-Defense Force's new Armas going out of control.

It took place in the warehouse district of Misaki Town in Miura City.

With this string of shocking events,

"Misaki Town Disaster Zone / In the warehouse district of Misaki Town in Miura City Another Runaway SSDF Arma Accident!!" With this string of shocking events,

"Misaki Town Disaster Zone / In the warehouse district of Misaki Town in Miura City Another Runaway SSDF Arma Accident!!" Miura City has expressed its dissatisfaction with the government.

Miura City has expressed its dissatisfaction with the government.

- Tighter administrative controls for the future - It's gotten rather scary lately...

- and the cause of the accidents... - It's gotten rather scary lately...

- That hurt! - Wake up! It's morning!

Just leave me alone!

I'm not going today!

No! No playing hooky allowed!

Huh?

Oh!

Hide's here!

What?

Kouichi.

You got worried and came to get me, huh?

You didn't have to do that. I'm totally fine.

Overall armor DS level, nominal.

The Drexler soil metabolic rate, 99.8%...

In other words, it's already completely repaired itself?

Its core system is similar to the S-systems of the other Machinas,

but its capacity is incomparable.

Incredible!

And you captured this monster Machina without any trouble!

You really are awesome, Reiji!

Yes?

Morning, Emi-chan.

Did you sleep well last night?

Hey, Kouichi!

What do you want?

Who in the world was that girl from yesterday?!

You never told me that a cute girl like that was li-li-li...

...living together with you!

Hey! Don't say it so loud, or...

What?! Living together?!

Who and who?!

See?! That's what you get for saying weird things!

But!

She was just staying at our place for a little while!

She's already gone, so it doesn't matter.

B-But Kouichi...

- What?! - That is...

Her b-b-b-b-b-b...

B?

Her b-b-b-b-b...

No!

- You can't! - H-Hey!

What did you do that for all of a sudden?!

I heard Shizuna-chan and Izuna-kun will be getting back by tomorrow.

Things didn't go smoothly with the US armed forces,

so it sounds like they had a rough time.

The US armed forces are fiercely territorial, after all.

Who knows? Maybe it was Shizuna who actually picked a fight with them.

Ooh, I'm gonna tell Shizuna you said that!

- What?! - That you said she's a savage girl,

who indiscriminately picks fights with anyone!

I didn't go that far!

Rachel!

Satoru-kun, are you okay?!

Go back to America!

No, thank you!

Until I've unraveled the secrets to the Linebarrel,

there's no way I'm going back, even if I'm ordered back to the States!

Is it that incredible?

Yup! It's clearly not a normal Machina.

Really?

If we've gotten a Machina like that,

I guess our future missions will be a piece of cake.

Even if we have the Machina, it does us no good without a Factor.

You must be some kind of idiot, Satoru.

Shut up!

Now you've done it!

Oh, Kizaki-san...

We should have come for you sooner,

but talks with the government and the UN took longer than expected.

It must have been scary to be in an unfamiliar world.

Not at all. I should be the one to apologize.

I made such trouble for the people of this world upon my arrival...

So? Have you recovered your memories?

Yes, for the most part.

But...

...just before I came over to this world...

Something... happened, but...

There's no need to be impatient.

Take all the time you need to remember.

Yes, sir.

Your father, Dr. Kizaki, sent you two to our world

in spite of great difficulties.

To honor his determination,

we at JUDA will not fail to put the Linebarrel to good use.

But the one who became the Linebarrel's Factor is...

Yes, his name is Kouichi Hayase-kun, right?

Each Machina can only have one Factor.

If that Factor should turn out to be unfit,

in order to select another Factor,

the current Factor...

...must die.

But I don't want to have to do something like that.

I just hope Hayase-kun will soon come to realize

the true nature of the power he has gained.

Is this the guy?

The one that beat you guys up?

He doesn't look so tough.

You're our upperclassmen. Teach him a good, hard lesson for us!

All right!

- Come at me already. - What?

I'm in a bad mood right now!

That's just perfect!

That's right.

Even without that stupid Linebarrel,

I'm still the most powerful!

I see.

Against ordinary citizens, huh?

Yes, please continue to monitor him.

Kouichi Hayase, is it?

Y-Yes.

I think he has a natural aptitude for this, but...

So, your clothes for the time being have been placed in here.

Thank you very much.

Oh, also...

Do you still plan to wear these clothes?

Please... dispose of them.

Then, I'll take them away.

Oh, Ogawa-san!

Um...

I've changed my mind about those clothes...

It's positively weird!

I don't really understand,

but strange things are happening around Kouichi.

That must be what's making Kouichi all weird!

- Come on, Yajima! - What?

You don't have any ideas?

You'd never...

Someone like you could never understand how I feel!

How it feels to be powerless and unable to do anything!

How frustrating it was to be unable to even protect the girl I liked!

Risako.

Could you wait until tomorrow?

Tomorrow?

I'll go try to talk to Kouichi now.

Once I do that, I'll tell you everything.

All right.

Then I'll make lunch and bring it by tomorrow.

Let's have lunch, the three of us, like we used to.

Sure.

It's a promise, okay?

Well, see you tomorrow!

Damn. I should've headed home earlier.

Kouichi.

Let's settle this.

We settled this already.

Then prove it to me.

What?

That you don't need me anymore.

Capture... the Line... barrel... Eliminate the Factor...

Eliminate the Factor...

What's the big idea, Yajima?

Did you think you'd be able to win against me,

now that I'd lost the Linebarrel?

It's no use. You can't win against...

So that's...

...what I want... you to prove to me.

In that case, I'll beat it into you!

That I'm in a different league now!

The main dish for lunch will be curry pilaf.

With plenty of corn and topped with boiled egg in the middle.

Ooh! That's my bro's favorite!

I know everything about what those two like and don't like.

But what about these green peppers?

My bro will never eat these!

I'm going to mince them finely and put them in the hamburger patties.

If I do that, even Kouichi will eat them.

That's Risa for you!

That's what I call love!

Oh, please!

Why? Why?!

Didn't I want to win against him?!

Didn't I want to become like him?!

So... So why...

...do I feel worse and worse, every time I punch him?!

K-Knock it off already!

Don't you see that it's useless?!

The other day...

When you said those things...

I realized for the first time...

I... I...

...just wanted to get Risako's attention,

and that's the only reason I protected you.

I never even noticed how that was making you feel.

I'm... a dirty sneak.

That's why...

...Risako never did look my way in the end.

Wh-Why are you saying this now?

I've...

...always thought of you as...

A champion of justice?

Is that what you thought?

Don't worry, Kouichi.

I'm...

...just a brat, like you'd find anywhere else.

Yajima...

I'm sorry, Kouichi.

I'm the same.

I never once considered your feelings...

Capture the Linebarrel!

Eliminate the Factor!

A-A Machina!

Why?!

The Linebarrel isn't here anymore!

Yajima!

Ya... jima...

- You're so good, helping out like that! - Here, this is it.

Okay!

Hey, you've got to be kidding me!

Hang in there, Yajima!

Why?!

Why you?!

Damn it all!

What the hell am I supposed to do?!

Kou... ichi...

What's important...

...isn't what you're supposed to do.

What?

It's what you want to do.

Me?

You've been fortunate enough... to gain this power...

Use it to do... what's right.

Yajima?!

Don't let it... bother you...

This is how... it's always been, right?

Yajima!

Elimination of Factor, failed.

Elimination, failed...

Don't apologize now... after all this time...

Don't say... things like that... now...

Not now!

- What?! - The Linebarrel!

Linebarrel...

What's important...

...isn't what you're supposed to do.

It's what you want to do.

I... I...

...want to kill that bastard!

The Linebarrel has ported into the vicinity

of the unidentified Machina that appeared earlier.

Sortie all units immediately!

We will seize the Linebarrel and the unidentified Machina!

Yes, sir!

He called the Linebarrel without Emi Kizaki's authorization...

Eliminate the Factor!

How dare you go after Yajima?!

Die!

All right, seize them!

Hayase-kun, please stop fighting!

Sheesh! Quit going on rampages in the city!

Out of my way!

Satoru-kun!

Please stop this already!

Out of my way!

So he's completely awakened as a Factor.

But this is...

What's this?

The Vardant is frightened?

The Hind's acting strange, too!

What in the world is going on?

The Executor...

Emi-chan, can't you stop the Linebarrel?

My voice isn't getting through...

No matter how many times I call, I get drowned out...

So the system has closed itself off and gone berserk...

The Linebarrel isn't managing to fully process the Factor's emotions...

Damn it all! Damn it all!

Yajima! Yajima!

Yajima!

Yamashita!

Are your Bullet Arms still operational?

Yes, sir! Just barely!

Launch on my mark!

- Now! - Yes, sir!

Come on, reach!

Dream, huh?

Dream, huh?

I want to become rich and let my mom have it easy.

What about you, Kouichi?

I... want to become strong like you.

Huh?

I want to help people who are weak or in trouble, too.

Like you.

Huh...

That sort of sounds like a champion of justice.

Does it sound childish, after all?

Nah, it's just like you to say that. I think it's good.

- Really? - Yeah.

You make sure you become this champion of justice!

I will!

Let me make it in time!

You know, Yajima...

Even so...

...I still...

...wanted to become like you.

What's this? What's this? What's this?!

I go away for a while and what's this mess that I come back to?!

What? A new Factor?

Moron! Any freakin' idiot who does moronic things like this is...

You're despica... or rather, who are you?
