14 years ago Union Territory International University
I've read your graduation thesis.
Tactical theorem pertaining to the use of unmanned machines in combat and the scale of the expected damage.
So, you really intend to become a strategic forecaster after you graduate?
That's the plan.
What about you?
I'm going to stay in college and continue to research mobile suits with Professor Eifman.
But you're incredible.
After all, you are graduating from here at the young age of 17.
I've still got a long way to go.
I'm nowhere as good as Kati.
Kati...
Oh, that genius strategic forecaster...
The tactics she presented led her to victory in seven successive disputes,
and it seems that the AEU is trying to scout her by treating her as a field officer.
That's my goal.
If war isn't going to end,
I'll devise tactics to end conflicts quickly.
Damage can be minimized and lives can be saved.
I want to become a strategic forecaster like Kati.
You can do it.
After you graduate, we won't see each other anymore.
I'll be lonely.
I didn't expect you to say that to a girl five years your junior.
Ah... no... Is that so...
Lessa, I read your graduation thesis.
Splendid work.
Thanks, Kati.
I wonder if the next time we meet will be on the battlefield?
If it's possible, I hope it wouldn't be as enemies.
Mannequin...
Why did you join A-LAWS?
Why?
ai ga ai wo "omosugiru"tte rikai wo kobami
Our love broke our bond with the reason that "It's just too much,"
nikushimi ni kawatteiku mae ni
before it turned into hatred.
nani mo kamo sou darou?
Everything is like that, right?
batsu no warui jijou ni wa itsu mo futashite
The terrible circumstances are always concealed.
kuwase mono no riaru
It's the reality of the powerful.
yuganda jirenma jidai de
During an era full of distorted dilemmas,
yakusokushita hazu no futari sae
the two of us who made a promise together,
kidukazu toorisugite yuku
simply walk past each other without noticing.
kowashiatte wakariatteta koto mo okizari ni shita
We hurt and refused to understand each other.
kore ga nare no hate nano?
Is this the desired result?
mitomenaide tachimukatte toki no
I won't accept this and stand up
ochite iku toki no image kara nigedasezu ni
without escaping from the image of my ruin.
aa nan do demo sagashidasu yo
Ah, I'll search for your eyes and
kimi no me sono te no nukumori wo
the warmth of your hand, no matter how long it takes.
"ai ha itsu mo atashi wo kizutsukeru dake..."tte kimi ha tsubuyaite
You murmured that "love always hurt me..."
shinjiru koto ga kowakute naitan darou
You were crying, afraid of the truth.
yowasa wo shitte tsuyoku nare
Learn what it means to be weak and become strong.
osorezu shinjiru koto de hontou no ai wo shiru no darou
Don't fear and believe. You will learn what true love is.
Heavenly Light
Colonel, has Seel made a move yet?
Presently, no changes.
But, at any rate, they are bound to do something.
Seel opposes the Middle East reorganization plan,
but we can't make light of their national power.
Once Seel takes action,
it's inevitable that other countries will follow.
In order to prevent that from happening, the Federation Government has decided to dispatch the Autonomous Peace Keeping Force.
A-LAWS?
The Federation army has stationed troops along Seel's border.
They are basically restraining Seel's actions.
Since it's that king, he is probably willing to stir up some trouble with the Federation.
Even if they are part of the world's greatest information industry,
as long as the communications network across the Middle East remains locked down,
information can't be used as a weapon.
With the way the Middle East is now,
due to the Federation's information manipulation, it's harder than before to report the condition of the Middle East to the rest of the world.
What's Seel's military strength?
I don't know the details, but it seems like they're in possession of the best armaments in the Middle East.
Before the establishment of the Federation,
they became the richest country in the Middle East due to rare metals and information.
It's reckless.
Even so, we don't stand a chance against the Federation's military might.
That's certainly true.
Even though we are talking about Seel,
it's impossible for them to have developed new weapons that exceed those used by the Federation.
However, we won't be able to help much even if we deploy our troops.
There is just one option left.
We will take the information that Seel has: the misgovernment of the Federation in Middle East,
and spread it to the world through our Katharon network.
As long as the public opposes it, the Federation wouldn't make any careless moves against the Middle East.
I see.
We will need to talk to Seel then.
Ikeda, can we try to contact the ruling family?
I can probably do something about that if I seek out my friends from back when I was a reporter.
I'll leave it to you.
It's for Middle East— No, for the world.
Roger.
Since there's a beautiful lake...
Let's eat together!
Shirin, what's the situation in Azadistan now?
How are the people?
Ever since they announced that a provisional government has been established,
no other significant information has been released.
The Federation is regulating information for their own benefit.
Even though I wanted to go and see how Azadistan is,
the borders are under lockdown by the Federation.
It's hopeless.
I see...
Marina.
We have no choice but to defeat the Federation if we want to rebuild Azadistan.
Fight.
It's your duty to fulfil as princess.
No, fighting will only lead to more fighting.
Can we really bring everyone happiness if we use force to regain Azadistan?
Are you saying that we should accept this meekly?
We've been robbed of our homeland!
Shirin, I just...
It's okay. It's okay for you to remain as you are and do nothing.
I will fight.
Because if I don't, I can't get my country back.
Setsuna...
I understand now.
How you felt when you lost your homeland... Krugis...
This sense of loss... It feels as if everything I ever laid foot on has disappeared.
How are you still able to fight... even after experiencing this pain?
According to the report from the reconnaissance party,
there's a high chance that the spaceship of Celestial Being is heading towards Lagrange 3.
Since I have a mission for Major Lindt,
the operation to pursue the Gundams will be left under your command.
Yes, Sir!
I have arranged for reservists as well.
I await your vengeance for Colonel Zhejiang.
Kujou...
Emilio!
That incident left her with an unpleasant after-taste.
Did she side with Celestial Being's ideals because they pledged themselves to eliminate war?
How foolish.
That's nothing more than a silly dream.
The world will never be completely free of conflict.
Didn't we become strategic forecasters to prevent battles from dragging on?
Colonel, I've brought your food!
Don't enter without permission!
Bring was issued an attack order?
What will happen?
Celestial Being.
Sensors, all green.
Particle emission at control value.
Azadistan...
My country is...
Marina.
Ali Al-Saachez.
Nothing's changed.
And I couldn't...
Detected something on the E-sensor!
Approaching suit sighted!
Enemy? A-LAWS?
It's coming.
What's wrong, Marie?
Marie?!
It's coming.
Something... dangerous.
Something... dangerous?
The approaching suit is moving at a speed of 78 kiloseconds!
What's with that speed?!
It's only one enemy?
Arios and Seravee are still being repaired.
Gundam, prepare for an emergency launch.
Intercept the enemy.
00, going off first.
That's...
A suit with a fake GN Drive.
It really is A-LAWS!
This mobility. Another new suit?!
That is...!
GN Field?!
The Federation has a suit capable of using it?
If only I could use Trans-Am—
Setsuna, are you okay?
That new suit is overwhelming 00?
What?
He ran off?
The enemy has retreated.
That's too quick.
After we retrieve the Gundams, we'll head to Lagrange 3 at maximum speed.
Roger.
Hey, what is the enemy trying to do?
They are trying to tell us that they have also deployed troops here,
as well as to show off the performance of their new suit.
It's both a feint and a warning.
Looks like there's an increasing need for the 0-Raiser.
Yes.
Is this Mannequin's diversion?
There's no mistake.
The pilot of that suit was an Innovator.
He is capable of it since he seized Veda.
He could develop a suit capable of using GN-Fields as well.
Also...
Tieria?
Is something wrong?
Nothing.
Why didn't I inform the others about him?
Am I confused?
Major Lindt, how are things?
Everything is going smoothly according to plan.
Report back once everything is prepared.
I will take direct command over it.
Roger.
Take a good look at this, those who have enmity toward a unified government.
What I'm going to have you experience, is thunder from heaven.
Divine retribution.
Lagrange 3 Resource Observation Satellites
Laser sensor has been synchronized with the Ptolemy.
Ptolemy, touch down.
Three... two... one.
Docking completed.
Commencing the connection of the fixation arm.
Connecting boarding hatch.
Hey, we've been waiting for you guys.
Mama!
I'm back!
Mileina, have you been doing well?
Of course!
Did she just say "Mama"?
Yes, she did.
Which mean...
Oh yeah, some of you haven't met her before.
This is my wife.
I'm Linda Vashti...
S-She's young.
This is a crime.
What do you mean?!
Time to stop joking.
What's with that joke?!
Can we speed up the resupplying and repairs of the Ptolemy and the Gundams?
What happened?
A-LAWS is deployed in this space region.
The camouflage here should be pretty perfect.
I understand.
Even so,
we need at least five days for resupplying and repairs.
You are?
Haven't seen you before.
Nice to meet you.
I was scouted for Celestial Being after activities were resumed.
My name is Anew Returner.
Scouted?
By whom?
She was introduced to us by Wang Liu Mei.
Anew is pretty amazing.
Astrophysics, mobile suit engineering, regenerative medicine,
she's good at piloting and cooking and, to top it all off, she's a beauty.
What do you think? An outstanding talent, right?
I-I hope we get along well.
It's a cryptogram from Ikeda.
Seel's ruling family has agreed to have a discussion.
Really? He did it?
I will attend the discussion.
I'll leave the command here to you.
Roger.
Bring an escort along just in case.
Yeah, I will.
This is a red car.
Hey, Princess.
What's wrong?
Is it true that Seel was attacked?
Don't trouble the Princess.
Sorry, he is from Seel, that's why he is feeling uneasy.
Why doesn't everyone just get along with each other?
That's right. That's how I feel too.
That is why we need to think of a way for everyone to get along.
We should all just eat together!
That's a great idea.
Right?
What else do you think we can do?
We can all play together, sing songs together...
That's right.
We can also show each other our treasures!
Erm... also... also...
This is the 0-Raiser?
Onboard that machine is a function which is able to control the Twin Drive.
It also has the ability to amplify Trans-Am.
What about the other machine?
That's a support fighter for Arios.
GN Archer.
GN Archer...
Let's commence the test, Setsuna.
Roger.
To think that there's such a large base in Lagrange 3.
What's wrong?
I don't know what I should do.
A lot of people died because of me.
I must do something to atone for it.
But fighting is...
Killing is...
I just can't...
It's natural to be unable to do those things.
But I have to do something.
There must be something I can do.
Erm... can I ask you something?
What is it?
Do you intend to stay with them from now on?
Yes, as long as Allelujah is here.
Even if you're dragged into battle?
I used to be a soldier.
I believe I'm prepared for it.
Either way, I've already made up my mind.
No matter what happens, I won't leave Allelujah.
I envy you.
There's someone I feel that way toward too.
If we met again, I wouldn't ever want to leave her.
However, I'm feeling uneasy for some reason.
Very uneasy.
Rendezvous in space and having personnel transfers...
Hey.
On top of that, a new suit.
Colonel!
New suit!
Give me a new suit too!
Shut up!
Colonel...
I never expected you to join A-LAWS.
What's bringing you here?
You are quiet as usual.
Memento Mori is being activated.
Memento Mori?
I see.
Ribbons is finally...
Using the Memento Mori...
With this, the Middle East plan will be sped up.
We will be able to unify the will of mankind.
"Unify"?
Don't you mean "standardize"?
No, it's unify.
Meaning that they'll be gathering around us.
I thank you for the collaboration in building the Memento Mori.
I look forward to the future the Innovators will create.
What are you doing?
Yo!
You...!
Michael and...
Johanne...
My brothers were...
Oh, I see!
I thought I'd seen you somewhere before.
You're the girl from back then?
You've turned out to be remarkably feminine.
You...!
Want to have a go with me?
Forget it.
Or I'll end that puny little life I spared, now.
0-Raiser has completed docking with 00!
Connectors, all green.
Okay, Setsuna.
Time to test 0-Raiser's control system.
Activate Trans-Am.
Roger.
Seel Kingdom Palace
Above the Low Orbit Ring "Memento Mori"
Finished transition into bombardment configuration.
Electric supply, 98%.
Maintaining output at 6800.
Correcting measurement error of the target point.
No problems detected in the cannon's power output.
General, firing preparations have completed.
Good. Begin the countdown.
Start the countdown!
Roger. Counting down until firing:
Ten, nine...
I've looked around according to your instructions, but I can't find it, boss.
I see. It's okay then.
Sorry for wasting your time.
My client is my boss.
Use me as you wish.
This isn't really an apology, but watch this with me.
What's that?
You will definitely find it interesting.
Time remaining until Trans-Am commences:
Eight, seven...
Six, five...
Four, three...
Two, one...
Commencing bombardment.
What?!
What...
...is this?!
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
The being of light resting within the glass case
hikari no sonzai ni furetakute mo
is so hard to perceive.
furiageta te orosenakute
I'm unable to lower my raised hands...
ochiru you ni shagamikonda
I've collapsed as if I'd fallen...
Prototype boy asu no risou dake de
A prototype boy just for the ideals of tomorrow.
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.
Time remaining until Trans-Am commences:
Five, four, three...
Two, one...
Setsuna!
Roger!
Activating Trans-Am.
Topographical defect is moving to a high transition state.
The amount of particles produced and output is increasing at the same time.
Above 180% of normal output and raising.
It's nearly there, Linda!
Yeah.
230... 260...
This is...
Exceeded 290%!
What?!
Exceeding the theoretical boundary!
How...
This is...
The Twin Drive that Aeolia foresaw...
Is this its true potential?
Colonel!
My head...!
W-What is this sensation?
Could this light be...?
Colonel!
Run away, Colonel!
Colonel!
The particles are speeding up toward me...
Damn it, can't even let me sleep quietly.
00-Raiser has finally awoken the Twin Drive.
It shall bring Setsuna to an unknown frontier.
Next time, Voice of 00.
Is that the first cry of a new world?
