All right!
May I have everyone please look to the front right-hand side?
Please look! Please look!
Looking!
Where? Where? Looking!
Where? Where? Let's see. Let's see.
Looking, looking. Let's see. Let's see.
Looking, looking. Let's see now...
Where?
Ahem! This is the former capital of Moad, Lasala City!
The capital! Lasala City!
Wow, so that's the capital!
Lasala City, eh?
''Oh, in Lasala
Lasalasala something
Salasa something...''
Huh?
No, wait...
''My dear Lasala
Sala salasalasa
Sala salsa.''
Okay!
''My dear Lasala far, far away Lasala between clouds and sea!''
''What was once the dream of dreams is this present day in ruins.''
Why, that was a pretty good poem.
I actually took haiku lessons back on King Kuron.
So, where is this Lasala Station we promised to go to?
Where?
You can't see it from here.
But...
But big brother, we'll be able to join you soon, and no mistake.
Currently 07 Moad miles from Lasala City.
ETA is 1900 hours.
There is a possibility that they will make contact with Shiro Tokisada inside Lasala City.
Surround Lasala City.
As soon as you can identify Shiro Tokisada,
take every one of them into custody.
Apply Article Five.
Understood, Sir.

Episode 14
The Lasala Express
Doko e nagaretsuku no ka
Dare ga shitte iru no ka
Kurayami no naka mo akiramenakereba
Hikari wa kitto kurun da
Kodoku to ai ga tatakatte iru
Kaze to yuku tatoe tookute mo
Yume ga aru kagiri
Ikite yuku nani ga atte mo
Kimi ga iru kagiri
At the height of its prosperity, there were about 500,000 people living here.
But once the deportation plan was put into effect,
the Federation Government tried to speed up the process by burning down this big city.
''My dear Lasala burned, distorted, abandoned...''
''Traces of tears now rusted and sad...''
''The rain continues to fall, saying 'drip drop, splish splash.' ''
That poem had way too many syllables.
Superb!
Hey, Lucky.
Yes?
I don't like this at all.
You don't like what?
Take a look straight up and you'll see what.
And over there and over here...
I know.
'''I know about that' She said she knew about that as she packed her things''
''My dear wife and only child It was dusk when they left me.''
Captain, me, fight preparations, okay.
Everyone okay too. Preparations, complete.
Getting ready, complete. Complete!
Now, now, don't be so hasty.
They'll attack us eventually,
when Lucky's friends come to welcome us.
You said he was called Murato, right?
Right, yes.
If I were a gloomy person like him, I'd say that's what I would do.
That's right.
That guy hates my big brother like an obsession.
He would do anything to capture my big brother.
But it's not even for certain if your bro is coming or not.
No, Sir, brother Shiro will definitely come!
Huh?
My big brother believes strongly in courtesy.
You all have come such a long way from King Kuron
that no matter what happens, I know he'll come to welcome you!
I see...
So that means Murato's figured out that much?
If that's the case, he's a dangerous guy, huh?
Where is Shiro? Has he not appeared yet?
There it is! That's Lasala Station!
Go faster!
Sure thing!
The station, Sir! They're headed for the train station!
I see. So Shiro will come to the station, eh?
I see now. They're going to use the Lasala Express.
Cruising speed is 200 per hour.
We'll arrive at Lasala Station at 1930 hours.
Priest Shiro, what do you direct us to do next?
Go to Platform Six. We will welcome our new friends there.
Temperature of combustion is 985. Engine working normally!
This joy of welcoming new friends
is as great as the heart of the Universe's joy at the birth of a new planet.
We thank the heart of the Universe for everything.
Number six!
Look for the entrance to number six!
Sure thing!
Hey, Lucky, why number six?
Huh? Did I just say number six?
Yup, clearly, six, as in ''four, five, six.''
I see, then it must be my big brother making me say it.
It's something not of this world. Don't strain yourself over it.
You're just average Joes.
Get it? Just simply average.
What about you?
I'm also an average Joe.
Somehow I don't like that.
Me neither.
How come? Why?
There it is! Number six!
Barba!
Platform Six is a hundred meters underground.
Now you tell me that?!
Sorry!
Here we are! Platform Six.
Hey, Lucky, where are you going?
Where are you going?
What? What's going on?
He's coming! My big brother is coming!
Coming?
What? What's coming?
Hey, Captain, what's coming?
''From this tunnel come Lucky's thoughts and wishes and tracks that bring them here.''
Huh?
Big brother!
Welcome home, Sachiko.
How's your fever? What about your appetite? Are the night sweats bad?
I'm fine.
Really?
Really.
Thank goodness! Thank goodness... Thank goodness...
Well, I guess it's that kind of a situation.
Yeah, it's that kind of a situation.
She did go through a lot of stuff after all.
Ah, crybaby...
Lucky really is the number one crybaby of us all, is what this means. Ah, crybaby...
Lucky really is the number one crybaby of us all, is what this means.
Baby, baby!
Big brother, I brought them here!
The universe's number-one whale hunters!
Good job. You did a good job, Sachiko.
Captain...
Captain Ahab...
Afterwards, I heard from everyone that you dared to say something like this:
''My dear cry baby dream train at Moad's station what'll it carry?''
''Where's it going to go, eh? Hey, that's a pretty good one!''
Now, Sachiko.
Yes?
We must pay our respects to everyone.
Yes!
Everyone, salute the guests!
I am truly, truly glad that you have come.
I am Shiro Tokisada.
I'm terrible at formalities...
Hold on a sec, Captain!
Huh?
I know we'd come across this situation,
and salvaged it from Lady Whisker when she was sinking.
Let's see...
What are you doing? Hurry up! I'm sticking out like sore thumb here!
Here it is!
Ta-da!
Here!
A captain is not properly formal without that.
Ah, I see.
Aca! I didn't know you were so considerate!
Don't mention it!
Well then, let's start over...
AHEM!
I am Ahab. Lucky's... well, his friend.
I'm Atre!
I'm the one who took care of cry-baby Lucky the most!
Barba! Barba likes Lucky Sachiko!
Don't say such rude things!
I'm Speed King!
I'm the number one guy Lucky depends on!
Doc Christiansen, I was the main caretaker of Lucky's health.
Cook! Cook the Chef! I always fed delicious food to Lucky!
Even though I've been abandoned by my wife and kid,
I'm working hard, which shows him the pride of a true man.
Academias! I'm, well, perhaps you could say I'm the tutor.
Mutz, well... knowledge of martial arts, et cetera.
Lucey! Lucey! Lucey! Lucey! Lucey!
THAT'S ENOUGH, YOU BASTARDS!
Don't get carried away! You're making fools out of yourselves!
Well, as you can see, they're all stinking liars.
Priest Shiro, I think we should depart soon.
Oh, yes.
Everyone, please come aboard the train.
There are still many of our friends waiting for your arrival at headquarters.
What should we do, everyone?
Shall we ride the train to the next stop?
On four! Two, two, three, four...
Let's go!
The train has left Lasala Station!
The direction is 601B.
They're traveling 100 meters underground at the rate of 92 Moad miles per hour.
Send the seventh squad to area 605A.
The train will briefly come up to the surface at that point.
Please excuse me, Captain Ahab, everyone.
Just for a little bit... Please let me rest for a little bit.
Hey, Doc!
Yes!
Can't we get a diagnosis from you here?
Certainly! This is Lucky Sachiko's big brother after all,
so we'll treat him as a family member of the insured party,
making this a free-of-charge case.
Your humble servant, who was called ''Patch Adams'' at med school, will...
Hey, idiot!
Yes, Sir?
Is this supposed to mean anything?
No...
Then get off of me!
Aw, come on!
Awww, how nice.
Priest Shiro was never very strong physically.
But lying down like this is not only because he's resting.
He opens his heart to the Universe for the sake of the people,
listening to see if anything harmful is happening far away or if anyone is calling for help.
He's listening for those voices.
My big brother's been different from me since we were small.
He's not selfish like I am, nor does he get mad easily.
He never wants anything, nor does he play.
He's always only thinking about what he should do for the people.
If you compare me with him, I'm always so ashamed.
Don't be ridiculous, Lucky.
What have you got to be ashamed about?
Your brother is your brother. You are you.
This is a vast universe, so it's not strange that someone like your brother exists.
But what's shameful about only thinking about yourself and doing lots of selfish things?
Usually, that's the way it is!
What are you getting mad about, Ahab?
I'm not mad!
You are mad.
I told you I'm not mad!
Nope, you are mad!
I know!
I know you really hate having people made out to be really something
and you hate special treatment. I know that!
No, I, I didn't...
No, I understand!
I've been traveling with you since King Kuron and I know that's the kind of person you are.
But my big brother... Brother Shiro is special to me!
Because he's my brother!
Perfectly natural.
See, I'm not saying that that's bad at all.
Captain Ahab, you're not my big brother, and you're not my father.
Of course not.
But you're special...
Hey!
Don't mess with me!
Why do you always have an unlit cigarette in your mouth?! Bastard!
Stop it! Hey, STOP it!
Be careful! There is danger above us!
Tranquilizer shells! Everyone, put on your masks!
Captain!
What?
You're so relaxed.
Let's go at it too!
If you want to help, feel free.
That's the kind of person he is.
As if something in his core is cold, or how should I put it...
Moron, I'm saying that they don't need our help.
Our side has the advantage, 8 to 2.
Come to think of it, it does seem like that.
You see?
Not everything in this world is something you should just go at head-on, you know.
So the seventh squad by itself can't produce much of a result.
Commander!
I can't let the opportunity to capture Shiro slip away.
Kiyoshi! What's wrong, boy?!
What's wrong?! What's wrong?!
It's him!
Captain, where are you going?
Shut up! I'm going to the bathroom!
Don't do it, Ahab!
Hophophophop! Hophophophop! Hophophophophophophop!
One more!
If you interrupt my mission, I will be forced to arrest you.
Oh you will, will you? Bring it on!
On dodo, kon gogogo... On dodogas kon gododos...
Your pain saddens me. On dodo, kon gogogo... On dodogas kon gododos...
On godo on go...
For the Lasala Express to arrive at our headquarters,
we will still have to travel underground for a while.
But we won't have to travel on the surface anymore.
I'm so surprised. The Captain, who never loses his cool...
Yeah, he went head on against the enemy's boss.
Maybe he was in a bad mood.
But isn't it a distinctive characteristic of the Captain's to get mad like that sometimes?
Barba, made, haiku.
Let's hear it.
''My dear Cap-i-tan he is pissed off that he lost Kerochitchi game.''
I see...
Reflect on why you lost! Reflect on why you lost!
Shut up!
