Specimen E-57's quantum brainwave implementation operation has been completed.
Commencing post-operation observation.
Can anyone... Can anyone...
Can anyone... hear me?
A voice is ringing in my head...
Over here...
I'm over here...
Here...
Can anyone... hear me?
Are you talking to me?
Ah, you can hear me?
Where? Where are you?
I'm right in front of you.
Sorry, I can't tell.
However, I'm happy I was able to talk to you.
Because I've always been alone.
Thanks for coming here.
Who are you?
Marie.
Marie...
What about you?
I don't know. I can't remember.
Who I used to be...
...or why I'm here...
I can't even remember my name.
In that case, I'll give you a name.
Let's see... Your name shall be...
Allelujah sounds good.
Allelujah?
It's a word you say to give thanks to God.
Thanks... What's there to thank for?
It's obvious, isn't it?
For being alive.
That was, quite literally...
...my baptism.
aiga aiha omosugirutte ikaiwo kobami
Our love broke our bond with the reason that "It's just too much,"
nikushimini kawattekawaru maeni
before it turned into hatred.
nanimokamo soudarou
Everything is just like that.
batsuno warui jijouniha itsumo futashite
The terrible circumstances always cover that.
kuwasemonono real
It's the reality of the powerful.
yuganda dilemma daite
Embracing a distorted dilemma...
yakusokushita hazuno futarisae kidukazu toorisugiteyuku
Without noticing, even the two who have pledged are being separated far away.
kowashiatte wakariaeta kokoro
Even my shattered heart
okizarinishita korega nareno hatenano
is deserted as if it were something normal.
mitomenaide tachimukatte tokino
I won't accept this and stand up
ochiteku tokino image kara nigedasezuni
without escaping of the image of my ruin.
aa nandodemo sagashidasuyo
Ah, I'll search for your eyes and
kimino me sono teno nukumoriwo
the warmth of your hand no matter how long it takes.
"aiha itsumo atashiwo kizutsukerudake"tte kimiha tsubuyaite
You murmured that love always hurt you.
shinjirukotoga kowakute naitendarou
You were crying, afraid of finding the truth.
yowasawo shitte soshite
You've learned what it meant to be weak, and
osorezu shinjirukotode hontouno aiwo shiruno darou
without fearing and believing, you will learn what true love is.
Reason For Fighting
I thank you for helping me,
as well as for stopping the conflict in Azadistan five years ago.
Ending the conflict without fighting,
what a wonderful course of action.
Putting that aside, what are you going to do now?
I'll return to Azadistan.
That's reckless.
The Security Bureau will come.
There's also the possibility that the Federation might invade using you as an excuse.
Azadistan, which didn't join the Federation, has been abandoned by the world.
The economy has collapsed.
Due to the death of the leader of the conservatives, Rasa...
...the conflicts with the reformists have devolved into a hopeless mess.
However, that is why I must...
I understand.
Plot a course to Azadistan for Ptolemy.
Setsuna?
Roger that, Setsuna.
I'm heading to the bridge.
I'm going to ask a blunt question.
Are the two of you lovers?
No.
Nope.
My maiden's intuition was wrong.
How's Sumeragi?
It seems that she's not ready to put on her uniform yet.
Haro, what's the accuracy rate?
78%! 78%!
I guess I'm not as good as my brother.
Hey, something wrong?
No, it's nothing.
You're Feldt, right?
I keep getting this impression that you're looking at me, but...
Why?
Ah, that's...
Feldt loves Lockon! Feldt loves Lockon!
Haro!
I'm not my brother.
I know...
Yeah, I know.
However, I'm willing to go out with you if you're fine with that.
We can head to my room after that if you feel like it...
You're dumped! You're dumped!
I did it to wake her up.
If I got compared, I wouldn't be able to bear it...
How about a glass?
Above the Arabian Sea
The captive Gundam pilot was rescued.
On top of that, Kataron also got the best of us...
What a failure, Colonel.
We misread the strength of Celestial Being.
No excuses.
A-LAWS has no use for incompetent people.
Major Lindt,
you're in charge of planning the next operation.
Yes, Sir.
Colonel, I shall show you how A-LAWS does things.
I'll watch and learn.
That's enough. You're dismissed.
Yes, Sir.
Major Arba Lindt, specialist in search-and-destroy operations...
To think that they're bringing that notorious man along...
According to the testimony given by the Security Bureau members,
it seems that the Gundams took the imprisoned Azadistan princess along.
How do you feel about this?
I heard that there's someone from the Middle East among the Gundam pilots.
Does he think he's some white knight riding in to save the young princess?
I'm guessing that Celestial Being's now acts on the basis of personal feelings.
The best piece of evidence is how they saved a fellow pilot.
In that case...
It's appropriate that we spread out a net here, right?
Understood.
I authorize the use of the Trilobite.
Thank you.
Another thing...
He wishes to join this operation as well...
Mister Bushido...
A blitzkrieg operation that didn't even take five minutes.
They plunged their ship into the ocean, causing a tsunami.
This created confusion among the troops.
By raising the humidity of the environment, they also halved the effectiveness of particle weapons.
Furthermore, the coordination between the four Gundams...
This strategy that combined both boldness and subtlety...
Where have I...
Trilobite, prepare for launch.
Trilobite?
The new model from the report?
To think that even GN Drive-based mobile armor has been developed...
Rumor has it that a woman donated a large amount of money.
There are curious people out there.
An order has been issued for platoon 4 to head towards Earth.
Warrant Officer Halevy, please go to the bridge immediately.
Yes, Sir.
Mobile suit squadron, prepare for launch!
Information from Gene-1 has arrived.
As expected, they seem to be heading towards Azadistan.
Klaus, are we really going to do it?
Celestial Being is an entity essential to our objectives.
Moreover, if we help them, we can protect Princess Marina.
Klaus...
We'll save her no matter what...
...that precious friend of yours.
Marina...
To say that you're leaving the royal palace...
Princess, with the way the Federation Government's policies currently stand,
this country won't have a future even if we enter the Federation.
In that case,
I'll craft a future for this country my own way.
Is there nothing you can do in Azadistan?
Simply reorganizing this country won't do it any more.
Klaus, let me join in with the troops.
That's dangerous.
I won't get in your way. Please, Klaus.
There must be something I can do too.
There you are.
Setsuna...
What's wrong?
Setsuna, won't you come with me?
To Azadistan.
I want to reorganize the country,
into a country without fighting, one where everyone can live normally.
I want your help.
I can't do that.
Why?
The only thing I can do is fight.
Stop saying such sad things.
Setsuna,
nothing is born from conflict.
You only end up losing more.
That's how I felt before I joined Celestial Being.
However, there are things that are born from destruction.
Gundam will put a stop to the injustice of the world.
For the sake of the future....
That's the reason Gundam and I are fighting.
Maintaining a depth of 3200.
Is this all right?
Showing me such classified information.
We're short of people.
You've got a license as a Class 2 space technician, don't you?
Well, yeah....
Also, if you don't work, you don't get to eat.
I understand... Umm...
I'm Ian.
Ian Vashti.
Ian, why are you here?
I've seen so many battles that I'm sick of them.
I just want conflicts to disappear.
My colleagues here all feel the same way.
Those who were sent to the frontlines of conflicts.
Those whose bodies were modified by the military.
Those who lost their families to terrorists.
Those who were trained to become guerrillas.
Everyone lost something important due to conflict.
That's the reality of the world.
However...
That's right, we're all criminals.
We will be punished. After we've eliminated conflict, that is.
Soma Peries...
If I'm not wrong, she was a Super Soldier from the HRL, right?
I wonder why I didn't notice.
No one but Marie could have caused such strong interference to my quantum brainwaves.
I felt that it was time to make up for my sins when the UN troops caught me.
I even thought I'd just let myself rot away like that.
However, I feel different now.
I want to get Marie back.
But she's our enemy now.
I know.
On top of that, the Superhuman Facility, you...
Yes...
I killed my own kind.
Marie will probably hate me if she learns about that.
I did something that bad.
But even if I'm hated...
I feel so envious of you.
You've found your reason to fight.
I wonder if I ever had one.
You joined because you agreed with Aeolia's plan, right?
Of course I did.
I wanted to end conflicts.
However, that's different.
I believe I was just trying to erase my abominable past.
Abominable past...
That's why I fought.
That's right.
I sacrificed a huge number of lives just for my ego.
Sumeragi...
However, I was unable to erase my past.
Right now, I have no reason to fight.
Nor a reason to be here.
I believe there's a reason for you to be here.
That's just...
Then why did you help me?
You'll be able to find your reason for fighting.
Since you're you.
Arios Gundam...
The machine that succeeds Kyrios.
I will get Marie back with this machine... with this Gundam.
Even if Hallelujah is gone,
and I can't use quantum brainwaves any more...
A reason for fighting...
In the past, I would have denied such a concept.
Lockon, Chris,
Lichty, Mr. Moreno...
Will I be able to do this again?
To face the world...
And also...
...to protect those who are dear to me...
Emilio...
The Ptolemy will be surfacing at the Strait of Hormuz soon.
The surroundings are too quiet.
The fish aren't even...
At this depth...
The E-Sonar has picked up something!
Six enemies are approaching at high speed!
Those are torpedoes!
Feldt!
Fully expanding the GN Field!
What the...?!
An enemy attack?!
Heavy compound discovered in the torpedoes!
It's rendering the sonar ineffective!
There's an enemy that can operate at this depth?!
A new model?!
Stop the enemy vessel at the designated spot!
Fire our trump card!
Head towards the center of the ship!
Setsuna!
Second volley, incoming!
Two large torpedoes were launched!
They've broken through the GN Field!
A new weapon?
The lower containers are flooding!
Even if we want to launch the Gundams, this depth is too great!
Surfacing the Ptolemy!
Rising to a depth where we can launch the Gundams!
A depth charge from the surface...
They're most likely using chemical bombs!
Have the Trilobite commence close combat after two minutes of bombing.
It's unfortunate that we can't witness the enemy vessel being crushed.
Major Lindt...
He's good at searching out the enemy and initial mobilization.
However,
what will the enemy commander come up with?
We're unable to open our gun ports because of the resins covering the hull!
It's affecting the steering too!
Damn it, where are the hostiles?!
E-Sonar, unable to operate!
Is there nothing we can do?!
Calm down.
There's something we can do.
Sumeragi!
They will stop launching depth charges soon.
The enemy in the sea will be approaching to commence a direct attack.
The enemy has pierced the port side!
C-Critical damage!
If this goes on, we might be crushed...
We're lucky.
How?!
The enemy we were unable to pinpoint is right there
and the Ptolemy has reached the depth where the Gundams can be launched.
Furthermore, the enemy has shortened the time needed to get the lower container flooded.
You're trying to push the Trilobite away with a mobile suit?!
We have a trump card up our sleeves!
Trans-Am!
Wh-What the...?!
Even underwater, at such a short distance, it's still...!
Try to keep our distance and launch torpedoes!
Setsuna!
Understood.
00, exter...
Won't you come with me?
To Azadistan.
...exterminating target!
I-Impossible!
The Trilobite is...!
Setsuna, I'm going to surface!
Roger!
Trans-Am!
What's going on?!
I-It's a Gundam!
Don't tell me the Trilobite was...!
Retreat the ship!
The mobile suit squadron will...!
Too late!
That Ahead is...?!
Mister Bushido!
A-LAWS' new machine!
This movement...!
He's a tough one!
That swordplay...
There's no mistake; it's that boy from back then.
What luck!
You are the reason I've been living through all this disgrace!
That machine... specimen E-57!
It's not the machine's fault.
My own capabilities are...!
Incoming!
Fall, Gundam!
That's...!
Could it be...
Kataron?!
What's this...?
An anti-government organization...
Don't get in my way!
Maintain formation and retreat.
What?!
So, my duel was refused.
I've learned a lot, Major.
The anti-government organization, Kataron...
They have this much power.
I wonder who's the one who wanted to meet me?
It's been a while, Marina Ismail.
Shirin...
Shirin Bakhtiar.
Why are you...?
I'm a member of Kataron now.
A woman who stands against the way the Earth Federation operates.
junshinsa ga shinpuruna chikara ni kawaru toki
When innocence turns into simple strength,
sekai ni kage wo tsukuridasu
it casts a shadow on the world.
garasukeesu ni yokotawaru
Resting in a glass case.
hikari no sonzai ni furetakutemo
Even if I wanted to touch that being of light,
furiageta te orosenakute
I'm unable to lower my raised hands...
ochiru you ni shagamikonda
I've collapsed as if I'd fallen...
prototype for asu no risou wo nukete
Surpass the ideals of tomorrow's prototype,
kataritsugu youna bidan ni mo naranai kedo
even though it won't turn into some touching story that is passed on.
kono karada wo ushinaisouna girigiri no basho ga
Sadly, the place where you might lose your life
kanashii kurai niatteru
is the one that suits you best.
Looks like you have finally made a decision, Billy.
I will be in your care, uncle.
Call me Commander in here.
You will take over the late Professor Eifman's role in developing new mobile suits.
Yes, Sir.
Sumeragi!
The size doesn't suit me...
It's too tight...
I'll prepare another one for you immediately!
I think it's just fine the way it is now.
Papa, that's sexual harassment!
Sumeragi Lee Noriega...
Kujou...
You've always made use of me.
And then trampled on them...
My feelings...
The Meisters are tossed about by A-LAWS' almost ruthless attacks.
And Setsuna experiences a dramatic turn within the crimson flames.
Next time, Burning Homeland.
Burning Homeland
Next Time
Was that reunion a dangerous medicine?
