Original subtitles

Currently, we are experiencing an inexplicable solar eclipse

and an eerie aurora that is blanketing the entire Earth.

These appear to be phenomena caused by the spatial distortion

that appeared in orbital space

directly above Misaki Town in Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture.

Furthermore, it is said that in time,

an unimaginably colossal force will appear from this distortion in space.

According to the Katou Organization's statement,

this force is coming to invade us

from a world that is in a different dimension than ours.

And their objective is to eradicate us, the species of man on Earth.

Only the Katou Organization and the JUDA Corporation

possess the firepower to oppose them and as such,

the two camps have announced that they are putting up a united front.

At the same time, they have demanded full cooperation

from the UN and all governments across the globe.

The Katou Organization's Shangrila and the JUDA Corporation's Flag

will rendezvous over Miura City, Kanagawa Prefecture.

After which, it seems they will coordinate

with ground troops assembled around the Special Self-Defense Force

and deploy a defensive line for Earth with the Linebarrel at the forefront.

Shangrila prepared for rendezvous.

Flag prepared for rendezvous.

Releasing alignment system.

Roger.

With the fate of all of Earth's mankind riding on their shoulders,

the might of justice has now risen up and taken a stand!

Kono mune ni idaku no wa seigi

What I hold in my heart is justice

My sun that burns red and hot

Akaku atsuku moeru waga taiyou

Kono yo no dokoka de kouri-tsuki nemuru shinjitsu

The truth slumbers frozen somewhere in this world

I reach out in search of it

Mitsuke-dasu kono te

How much love and sorrow will I touch?

Ai to kanashimi ni doredake fureru no ka?

To remain true to myself, I melt the darkness away

Boku wa boku de aru tame yami o tokashite-yuku

When I pass through the doorway to a world I have yet to see

Mada minu sekai e no tobira o kuguru toki

If my wings are to be injured

Tsubasa ga kizutsuku no nara

I will turn my heart hard as iron

Kono kokoro o hagane ni kae

Kousa-suru hikari yo

O crisscrossing lights

The shadows dropped will surely make the time beyond the future shine

Ochiru kage wa mirai no saki o kagayakaseru-darou

Far corners of the boundless universe

Hateshi no nai uchuu no sumi

Each to their own solitary star

Hitotsu-hitotsu kodoku no hoshi ni

We live, connecting to one another

Ikiru bokura tsunagari-au

To become bridges that transcend Earth

Chikyuu koeru hashi to naru you ni

The daylight moon, dimly lurking in the azure sky

Kuraku hisomi-uku seiten no tsuki

Taunting, clouding, though droplets of the dream may spill

Azakeri kagerou yume no shizuku ga koboretemo

I reach out my hand, the warmth that I receive

Sashi-nobeta kono te uketoru nukumori

The smile I find there, for you to remain true to yourself

Soko ni aru hohoemi kimi ga kimi de iru tame

I will lay down my life by your side

Inochi o sowaseyou

Soshite boku o mamoru shouri

And the triumph that shields me

North American defense force deployed.

East Europe, deployed.

West Asia, deployed.

North and South Africa, deployed.

Oceania, deployed.

If you slow us down, I'll make you pay for it, kid!

Right back at you, Mister Rooster Hair!

Wha?! Who are you calling "Rooster Hair"?!

All ground units deployed.

With the exception of a handful of cities,

it seems the evacuation of residents is also complete.

I'm amazed that this all got done in such a short time...

Is this because

the entire world is under the Katou Organization's rule right now?

Kizaki.

H-Hayase-kun?

Are you okay with this?

You haven't talked to Hisataka Katou about any of this...

Y-Yes.

Because right now, our priority is to end this war.

Right... Sorry, what I said was uncalled-for...

No, I do understand.

That there was no other way at the time.

But still...

Large-scale gravitational disturbance confirmed within dimensional transfer tunnel!

It seems they are finally making their appearance.

Our guests from the other world...

So that's our enemy!

First enemy wave has appeared.

Numbering 600,000, approaching at a speed of 850.

Do you not need to mind the Flag, Ishigami?

My employees are all exceptionally capable.

I appreciate your help,

but just spare me the mackerel sushi.

What? That's too bad.

All Sphere circuits, switch to bypass connections!

Reverse the space excavation waves at Level E!

Deploy the Wall of Shangrila at maximum strength!

A shield system that covers the entire Earth?!

I had no idea those Spheres had such a hidden functionality.

First, our units will push forward and clear the way.

After which, JUDA's Machina unit will penetrate to Point Helios.

There, the Linebarrel will cut the Hub Dynamo in half with the Executor

and then throw all enemy units into the resulting space-time chasm.

Roger! I'll settle this with one shot!

It's too bad that we've been assigned separate duties.

Once we've sorted out this commotion,

let's do something nice, just the two of us.

- What?! - Like hell he will, ya moron!

Moritsugu-san,

I will acquit myself as the Linebarrel's backup, without fail!

I'll leave it to you, Yamashita.

Enemy force has reached anticipated combat zone!

Shangrila, prepare for battle!

All assault units, move out!

Initiating Termino Clementia!

Enemy units appear to have begun neutralizing the shield.

Shield energy dropping by 0.80 per minute.

Directly connecting Sphere circuits #6 through #9 to #2!

It'll keep the energy from dropping, even if it's just a little!

Termino Clementia, Phase 2!

JUDA's Machina unit heading out!

- Here we go, Hayase! - Yeah!

Moritsugu-san...

He really is amazing.

Shield strength in the Oceania area has decreased massively!

They will break through shortly!

Hah! This is quite the swarm that's come to visit us.

Don't fall behind, Mister Rooster Hair!

Eh?! Who do you think you're talking to?!

All right, I'm going, too!

Wh-What are you doing?!

Don't ya gimme that!

Hayase, have ya already forgotten the plan?!

We must save the Linebarrel's firepower for the very end.

But you didn't have to do this...

Please bear with it.

That is your lifeline, to prevent you from falling into the space-time chasm

when you cut up the Hub Dynamo.

Seriously, quit it with yer dumb one-trick pony act of rushin' in headlong.

What we need right now's teamwork!

I know that!

But it's not cool, and this is the final decisive battle.

Gravitational distortion confirmed directly ahead at close quarters!

The Glain Neidr?!

Fire all guns.

The Shangrila!

No!

Hisataka Katou.

Central had already predicted your actions.

Everyone!

That damn monstrosity!

Hey, Hayase, what're ya doin'?!

Right now, we have to focus on teamwork!

Immediately purge the Flag from the Shangrila.

After which, all crew members will evacuate at once.

As of now, the Shangrila will activate its emergency program.

Sawatari, Yuriannu, and my fellow comrades,

this is my final order

as Supreme Commander of the Katou Organization.

- What? - His final order?

Imagine the ideal future.

And realize it, without fail!

Emi.

I am sorry.

What?

An object with great mass has appeared behind the Glain Neidr!

Shangrila, flank speed ahead!

Kouichi Hayase.

We will clear the way.

We leave the rest to you, champion of justice.

Brother!

Kizaki!

I'll beat the crap out of the whole lot of them!

I'll end it all!

Wait! Kouichi! Emi!

You must not charge in there alone right now!

We have yet to analyze our current situation over here!

Kouichi, can't you hear us?!

Moritsugu-san!

Hayase, I'll back you up.

P-Please wait a minute!

Moritsugu-san, with just the Linebarrel and you, even you can't...

Take a good look.

Thanks to the Shangrila,

there is a narrow route that will allow us to get to Point Helios.

You guys get down to the surface and support the defensive effort.

- Let's go, Hayase! - R-Right!

You damn small fry!

Drop dead!

I hate persistent guys!

Saki-chan! Mina-chan!

No!

Saki-chan! Mina-chan!

No... Stay away!

Th-Thank you.

Yajima?!

Just how many do we have to bring down to finish them off?!

A place where Kouichi-kun and everyone else can come home to...

I'll protect it, without fail!

Eat this! Nerve Crack!

l-I'm countin' on ya, Izuna!

Right! Leave it to me, Sister!

That's right! All of you! All of you die!

I'm the one who'll swallow you up!

I'll devour you all!

I'm sorry, Izuna.

But hang in there for me.

Out of my way!

- What?! - That was the Override!

Amagatsu Kizaki's legacy... I will eliminate it.

Hayase!

Data verified! That's the main body of the Glain Neidr, the Naked!

Then, that Factor is alive?

D-Soil activation level, 370%...

He is likely also...

...a Machina Human!

Looks like we're going to have to defeat you to keep on going!

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

This is a bit dicey...

I swear! Just the sheer number of them...

Earthlings, resistance is futile.

This voice... Soubi?!

Wh-What?!

Stop resisting and become one with us.

Become one with us.

Yeah, you know, Izuna...

When this is over, let's go have some tasty octopus balls...

France and Russia have ceased to respond to us.

We have also not heard from the US since their message

that they had rendezvoused with the UN Forces.

This is terrible!

Kouichi Hayase.

I have observed you for a long time now.

To discover the reason why Hisataka Katou had such high hopes for you...

...and the reason why the Machina Killer chose you...

However, I was ultimately unable to find the answers.

You have no noteworthy talents, your psyche is immature,

and there is nothing about you that is particularly outstanding.

You people cannot win against us.

Stop fighting and surrender.

Your people's DNA is worthless on its own.

However, its diversity will prove useful in developing the System.

Allowing that to just be lost would be meaningless.

D-Don't be ridiculous!

Do not waste any more lives.

Masaki may be right there.

Are you turning traitor?!

I'm saying, I can't come up with a way to flip this situation around!

No matter how I think about it...

True...

Even if we continued to fight now, the result would probably be the same.

What are you saying?!

Don't be getting all discouraged!

Our objective is not the eradication of Earthlings.

Therefore, the usefulness of this war would be deemed extremely low.

All must become one.

The time has come to discard old values and to realize a new world.

Accept this evolution.

For this is the natural flow of things.

Where it leads, there is no strife and no suffering.

Become one with us

and enjoy eternal peace.

Further sacrifice is literally meaningless.

No way!

- What? - There's absolutely no way I'll do it!

Like hell I'm going to become a Machina!

I'm a human being!

A champion of justice!

What is justice?

What I hold in my heart is justice

Your notion of "justice"

is the preservation of order within the extremely narrow scope of things

My sun that burns red and hot

that an individual is capable of concerning himself with.

The truth slumbers frozen somewhere in this world

In other words, it is nothing more than the simple defensive reaction

of the primitive ego and its trappings!

I reach out in search of it

How much love and sorrow will I touch?

Trying to drive out intruders and to protect the social system

To remain true to myself, I melt the darkness away

that individuals voluntarily revert to.

That behavior is nothing more than a biologically conditioned response!

Your notion of justice

is egocentric behavior designed to preserve that crude construct!

Kouichi Hayase!

When I pass through the doorway to a world I have yet to see

So what?!

I protect it because I want to! That's all!

And your reason for that?

If my wings are to be injured

It's cooler that way, don't you think?!

Pompously going on and on with that clever talk like you do...

I will turn my heart hard as iron

...isn't cool!

O crisscrossing lights

The shadows dropped will surely make the time beyond the future shine

I swear, that guy...

Kouichi-kun...

He really is cool.

Far corners of the boundless universe

Well, I definitely don't want to be uncool.

Each to their own solitary star

Like hell I'm going to let Hayase have all the cool moments!

We live, connecting to one another

So in the end, all he wanted was to be cool.

To become bridges that transcend Earth

But it's very true to who Hayase-san is.

Izuna!

That kid's grown up to become a really fine man.

The daylight moon, dimly lurking in the azure sky

Not as fine as me, though.

Taunting, clouding, though droplets of the dream may spill

Okay, I guess we'll go raise a little more hell!

I reach out my hand, the warmth that I receive

Yes!

The smile I find there, for you to remain true to yourself

I will lay down my life by your side

Now, the fight's just beginning, you pompous ass!

So, in spite of it all, you wish to die a human being.

And the triumph that shields me

In that case,

I will erase you along with all that you want to protect!

Ki...

Kizaki...

You were more easily defeated than I had imagined.

Reality...

...will... outstrip...

...your imagination!

Hayase-kun,

please...

...become a true...

...champion...

...of justice.

Th-This is...

So, it's finally revealed its true form.

Taking in the view from atop a hill

The nostalgia of it almost made me cry

The memories I wanted to forget, sparkling

I'm beginning to change

I'm still scared, but please watch over me

I'll be carrying them for a long, long time to come

These emotional scars that won't go away

A time when I can touch them, laugh, and properly face them

May such a time come someday

I want to pray for my future self

So that I will be sure to find happiness

Kizaki!

Kizaki, pull it together!

Do like you always do.

Look down on me with your cold gaze

and lambaste me, saying, "You're despicable!"

Kizaki!
