My body starts to melt

It was waiting for this miracle

009

You've got the chance to express you

Here comes the imagination

Time, place

Truth and lies

Joy and sorrow

Kindness, hateness

Happiness, sadness

Smile, tears, friendship

Alone, together, birth

Death, sleep, fight

Space and oneself

In that promised place

I feel it once again

The spreading of a dream that's come true

I start running today too

Wait here a second. I have to make a phone call.

A phone call? To whom?

Oh, there's just something I have to check on.

Hello.

Dr. Gilmore?

Episode 32: Man or Machine?

004?

Sorry to call so early, but I have a favor to ask.

I picked up word of disturbing movements

in Mozell Castle on the outskirts of Triela.

Would you go on ahead and check it out?

We're at the airport now.

We'll be on our way over there soon.

Someone else is here.

A raygun?!

It's me...

A robot!

Bastard...

It's predicting my movements?

Who made this pain in the ass?!

Eat this!

What?!

Machine gun, laser knife, micro-missile...

It has all of my abilities,

but it's entirely robotic.

The more drawn out the fight, the more I'm at a disadvantage.

It's programmed to move like me.

AllI can do is outsmart it.

Here he comes.

004! 004!

004! 004!

004!

Your brain cells and optic nerves are fine.

There's nothing to worry about.

I did replace part of your damaged right shoulder with new material.

New material?

It's material that wasn't available when you were first turned into a cyborg.

In fact, the material used back then isn't around anymore.

It does feel lighter.

I increased your speed and power, too.

Did you increase my deadliness as a weapon, too?

It doesn't feel too good knowing that I'm becoming less and less human.

I hate to see you like this, 004.

Actually, I used cutting edge technology

to create robots with your exact abilities for an experiment,

to test which is superior, them or you, the original model.

Experiment?

And now I know that you lost to cutting edge technology.

Why are you so attached to that old body?

Why won't you let me improve on your weaponry?

I'm not a weapon.

You protest after all this?

You haven't been human for a long time.

Don't you think it would be braver to live as a weapon

than some half-hearted human-weapon hybrid?

What do you say? Will you live as a perfect weapon?

If so, I'll do everything in my power to help you.

I'm

Doctor...

I feel like I'm fighting the shadow of my former self.

Bastard!

I never thought my work would lose to a cyborg!

Don't get cocky!

With this experiment, you just happened to get lucky!

Just wait, you half-baked cyborg!

Next time, I swear...

The real doctor would never involve me in a stupid experiment like this.

Rain isn't good for a machine body.

You guys helped me out.

So long. My apologies for the ruckus.

What happened to you?

Oh, I just ran into a little trouble.

Trouble?

Dr. Gilmore called and asked me to go somewhere.

I didn't call you.

Well, it turned out to be more of a prank call.

But you did make a phone call from the airport, didn't you, Doctor?

Oh, that was to Japan.

I couldn't remember if I unplugged the iron

and it bothered me even on the plane.

I had 006 check it for me.

Doctor, you do your own ironing?

Once in a while.

Instead of researching all the time, you should search for a bride.

W-What are you talking about?!

You need a wife who's kind and good at housework.

Like 006?

Honey!

Oh, stop!

You too, 0047?!

You shouldn't mock the elderly!

I held my heart up high proudly

I held my heart up high proudly

There wasn't even a lingering trace of that scent

There wasn't even a lingering trace of that scent

Once again I'm dancing, arcing through the air

Once again I'm dancing, arcing through the air

I'm surprised by the meaning of the pain

Like the red light from a towering building at night

My blinking heart won't turn off

Now I'm starting from here again

Now I'm starting from here again

Along with a vow

There are things I don't want to forget and things that will be wiped away

There are things I don't want to forget and things that will be wiped away

My courage, one courage, a kind courage

My courage, one courage, a kind courage

I can see

Dancing you and me

Time has stopped!

Dr. Gilmore and Francoise are also stopped.

I'm the only one left, while the rest of the world is immobile, as if frozen.

Why? How? What happened?!

The sights are the same, but nothing is moving.

I can't hear anything.

Is this a dream?!

I want to hear everyone's voices once more.
