Are you alright?
Yeah, but this is really tough...
Maybe it's not possible...
To import the Alaya-Vijnana System the Brewers used into this.
Don't give up, Yamagi.
- But... - I'll test it as often as you need.
I want it too.
The power to protect someone.
Shino...
I couldn't sleep at all.
Rather...
Rather, there's no way I could sleep.
Good morning.
Good morning?
The present has come after twists and turns
It has overlapped with the future
We are the last survivors
It looks like it might work out
A disguised ideal thought
Please do something about it
Armed ambition and hope
Those people like machines...
Find your place before you're controlled by them
The present has come after twists and turns
It has overlapped with the future
We'll hold hands, crawl on the ground, and rise up against it
The present has come after twists and turns
The wish that has been shot to the sky
We cannot lose
The dream that came true...
We will protect it
We are the last survivors
"Everything has been arranged."
"Enter port at Dort 2, along with Kudelia."
I want to know.
More about the people of Mars.
Even more.
Fumitan, I want you to tell me everything you know.
Young Miss?
Do you have a minute?
Excuse me...
What's wrong?
Fumitan. Have you...
ever dated a man?
I've heard men, even without romantic feelings,
will ask a woman out.
Is that true?
For example...
Ki...
When you're kissed...
Is it okay to think they're serious?
Were you kissed by someone?
No, hypothetically, I mean. You know, like what if.
In such a situation,
should I be seriously thinking about marriage?
Why are you laughing? Did I say something strange?
I'm sorry.
Well, if you're curious,
how about you honestly ask the man about his feelings?
Yes, you're right.
Sorry to suddenly ask you this.
I've always talked to you about everything.
That's why.
I'm sorry, I was wondering where Miss Kudelia was.
Miss Atra?
Miss Kudelia. Would you like to go to the bridge with me?
The bridge?
We can see the colonies now.
Are those them over there?
- Apparently. - Wow.
Is Dort 2 the one right ahead?
Yeah.
There's a bunch that look the same.
Dort is a public enterprise of the African Union.
They all belong to a company called Dort.
(DORT COLONY CLUSTER) They all belong to a company called Dort.
And the one we're going to is called Dort 2?
What about that one?
- So... - Dort 3.
In it are luxurious homes for factory owners from Earth,
and commercial facilities for them.
I see. You really know your stuff, Biscuit.
Commercial facilities...
Hey, Mikazuki.
Is that... Could it be?
Earth?
Yeah, it is.
I see. Earth is actually pretty.
Yes, it's like a jewel.
Really? Doesn't it look tasty?
Don't think everything is food.
Sorry to make a detour when we're nearly there.
Once we deliver the cargo requested by Teiwaz, we'll be on our way.
Not at all. That's an important job as well.
Rather than that,
um, I have a favor to ask.
While you are all working at Dort 2,
can Fumitan and I go to Dort 3?
Young Miss?
To Dort 3?
Yes.
If there are commercial facilities, I'd like to go shopping.
Young Miss, that is...
It's fine, right Fumitan?
There are things I need.
And I haven't been shopping for so long.
Well...
I understand. Then I will accompany you.
What? Shopping?
I'm so jealous.
Then join us, Miss Atra.
Can I really?
It shouldn't be only women.
Mika, can you go too?
Yeah, sure.
Mikazuki will? But...
Anything could happen, and you're an important client.
Though if you're with her, I doubt anything would happen.
Hey, Orga.
Can I go with them too?
I don't mind.
Thanks.
Let's buy lots, Miss Kudelia.
Yes...
I can't wait.
I know. I should wear what I bought on Saisei.
That'd be nice.
Detailed maintenance will be when we get to the colony.
Looks like you'll be staying here for a while.
Hey, did you really decide to pilot that?
It killed your brother.
Lafter.
It's alright.
I've already decided.
Any problems with the cargo?
No. We've counted the containers and nothing is wrong.
Okay. It's your first job so I'd like to come along,
but we got to close out the Brewers.
We'll go to Dort 6 where Teiwaz's branch is.
Do it right.
Leave it to us.
Just make sure you don't mess with Gjallarhorn.
The ones in the branches here are
much better trained and motivated than in the Outer Spheres like Mars or Jupiter.
I see.
But we won't know until we fight them.
You really don't get it, do you?
We're in the Earth Sphere now.
The Outer Sphere where you were is basically a lawless area.
But there is law and order here.
If you kill someone, you'll be charged.
Teiwaz is feared in the Outer Spheres,
but it's just as good as a normal company on Earth.
If you don't want to be crushed, behave yourself.
Listen. Do not cause trouble.
They're at the Dort colonies?
(GJALLARHORN HALFBEAK-CLASS WARSHIP BAUDUIN FAMILY VESSEL SLEIPNIR)
Yeah, they got a call from the mustache guy on watch. (GJALLARHORN HALFBEAK-CLASS WARSHIP BAUDUIN FAMILY VESSEL SLEIPNIR)
I'll finally settle things with those brats.
But are we allowed to deploy ships without orders?
We're just using them for a drill.
There's no problem.
We'll have no other mission during McGillis' vacation anyway.
It's a chance to get revenge for your superiors. Get ready.
Yes, sir.
I'm looking forward to this.
Yes.
Can we withdraw money there?
There's a Teiwaz affiliated bank, so it should be fine.
Okay.
Why did I...
Looks like the launch is safely on its way.
Thanks. For helping us out.
It's alright.
Then we'll go too.
Contact the controller for Dort 2.
What was that?
Well... It's a ship.
A ship?
It's approaching.
Tekkadan, right? Welcome to Dort 2. You're our guests.
Please follow our guide.
Do you know us?
Of course.
We were waiting for your arrival.
Let us see the young heroes' faces.
- Heroes? - What?
I got it. Please guide us.
So you're Tekkadan.
Yes...
I'm surprised. You really are young.
You're just kids.
What? Underestimating us because we're kids?
Don't get us wrong.
We were all looking forward to you guys arriving here.
Are you Miss Kudelia Aina Bernstein?
No, I'm not. I'm...
Kudelia has gone to a different colony for other matters.
She's not coming here.
What? Is that so...
I thought you looked old for a teen.
Old...
You know about the Young Miss too?
Of course we know.
Miss Kudelia is the goddess of the Mars independence movement.
She's the star of hope for us workers.
And the young band of knights protecting Miss Kudelia on an expedition to Earth.
What's a band of knights?
I don't know.
This feels strange.
Thank you for coming. We welcome you.
Thank you for your hospitality.
Without further ado, may we unload our cargo here?
Yes, please.
Alright guys, this is our first memorable job as a Teiwaz group.
Let's do this!
"VESSEL OF HOPE"
Yes! "VESSEL OF HOPE"
(DORT 3)
When you said shopping... (DORT 3)
When you said shopping...
Let me ask you two.
When did you last wash your body?
When was it?
I think it was 4 or 5 days ago.
What?
I've been concerned about that.
Inside the ship... that smell...
Now that you say so, it does stink.
When everyone's together, I sometimes gag.
Oh.
Do we smell that bad?
You do.
When I go near Mr. Yukinojo, it stings my eyes.
Hygiene is very important.
Let's buy clothes, detergent, and cleaning tools.
How about we clean up inside the ship?
Yes, I'm in. I'll help too.
What are you looking at?
What? Well...
When I was little, it was my dream to come here.
When you were little?
I've never told anyone, but I'm actually from these colonies.
Oh.
But I lived in the slums of Dort 2.
Mom and Dad both worked at the factory all day.
We were poor.
Even in the Earth Sphere, our life there was the same as the people on Mars.
It's just the handful of those who transferred from Earth that are rich.
Those of us born and raised in the colonies are disposable tools.
We're made to work for dirt cheap pay,
and get fired if we're physically disabled.
No insurance even if we die from illnesses or accidents.
People on Earth just live in idleness and suck up all the profits.
We've been enduring that for decades.
Disposable tools, huh.
It's the same as when we were at CGS.
So no matter which planet you're on, the bossy ones are scums.
But suddenly, a light of hope shone on us.
We heard about Miss Kudelia Aina Bernstein.
A young girl leading the Mars independence movement
influenced a magnate of an economic bloc of Earth.
Could there be anything more exciting?
We realized that if we rise up, we can change this world.
And the ones escorting her to Earth
are said to be young guys still in their teens.
They're..
talking about us?
Yes. Miss Kudelia the revolutionary maiden,
and Tekkadan who fights to protect her.
You guys are a symbol of hope to all of us.
I see. That explains the warm welcome.
Hope, huh. That's not too bad.
In any case,
it's strange the newly formed Tekkadan is already known in the Earth Sphere.
Who'd you hear about us from?
From our supporter.
Supporter?
Boss, I'm done unloading.
Okay, you guys go back to the ship.
Yes.
Can you please confirm the cargo?
Okay, I got it.
You have a big brother, Biscuit?
Yeah.
I haven't seen him for a long time.
When our mom and dad died in an accident,
Cookie, Cracker, and I were taken in by our grandmother on Mars.
My brother was going to school and was smart,
so he was taken in by a company executive.
We haven't kept in touch since, but I wonder if he's still in Dort 3.
How about you call him?
But if I call him all of a sudden, it might trouble him.
Of course it won't.
Why don't you call him?
You're brothers. I'm sure he wants to see you too.
Atra...
I think so too.
You'll only have regret if you leave here without seeing him.
Well...
Mr. Akihiro too.
If only he saw his brother earlier...
Contact him.
Okay?
(AFRICAN UNION PUBLIC ENTERPRISE DORT COMPANY HQ)
What is it?
There's a call from someone who says he's your brother.
My brother?
Put him through.
Um, Savarin?
It's me, Biscuit.
Biscuit? Is it really you?
Yes. I work in a group called Tekkadan now.
Tekkadan?
Well, yes.
And I'm here at Dort 3 for some work.
And...
If you don't mind, could we meet a bit?
Um, Bro?
Sorry, I was just surprised because it was so sudden.
Then...
Yes.
Okay, I got it.
I'll see you later.
He says he'll see me.
That's great.
Yes...
You don't seem so happy.
No, I'm happy. It's just that...
We live in such different worlds.
I don't know how to face him.
Did I cause trouble for you?
Not at all. I'm just thinking too much.
Should I come along?
Wouldn't it be easier than just two of you?
Well, but...
Yes, let's do that. If that will make you relax...
I'm sorry, Miss Kudelia.
Can I leave the rest of the shopping with you?
Yes, of course.
It's finally going to start.
Yeah.
Our years of endurance will finally be over with this.
Hey, this is...
A Mobile Worker?
For combat...
This was the cargo?
The list just said industrial supplies.
Amazing.
This is more than enough.
Hey...
This looks dangerous.
I'll check the order form.
Hey, what are you trying to do?
What? You haven't heard?
You delivered these to us because our supporter asked you, right?
Supporter? We just did it as...
Just who is your supporter?
I don't know the name. They said they're Miss Kudelia's proxy.
Proxy?
They said Miss Kudelia is calling to start a rebellion against Earth
in places besides Mars.
And the necessary arms and ammo
will be provided to us by Miss Kudelia via Tekkadan.
What?
We know nothing about that.
- Oh no! - What's going on?
Gjallarhorn?
Nobody move.
Drop your weapons and raise both hands.
Mobile Worker for combat, arms and ammo.
Looks like the report was true.
Report?
That an illegal transaction is going on.
Wait, we just...
- Save your excuses. - Hey.
What now, Orga?
Hurry up.
This is not good...
You too.
Hurry up and go.
Darn you...
We'll just have to do it.
Darn, it's started.
This is...
Shucks. Let's go!
- Go where? - Duck down.
Take this!
Bastard!
Don't shoot. Remember what Bro said.
But at this rate...
Boss? What's going on?
Get the ship out now.
What?
We're caught in a skirmish with Gjallarhorn.
- Tekkadan's ship can't be here. - The boss?
- Leave now. - What's wrong?
Yes. Oh, there's one thing to report.
The client for the cargo seems to be a company called GN Trading.
GN Trading?
I got it. I'm leaving the rest with you there.
Yes, sir.
You're buying more?
Yes, just a bit more.
Mikazuki.
What?
Well...
- K... - K?
Clothes for changing... We need to buy some.
Oh. Then let's get it done with.
"Kudelia will become central to the rebellion within the colony,"
"and be shot by a Gjallarhorn assassin."
"We have already laid the groundwork."
Why did I disobey orders?
Kudelia...
To me, she is...
Hammerhead, please respond. This is Isaribi.
(DORT 6 SPACEPORT)
This is Isaribi. (DORT 6 SPACEPORT)
What's wrong?
Those idiots caused trouble right away.
Retreat for now.
Retreat!
Yes, they're running!
We won.
It's not time to rejoice.
They'll be back right away. This time with a lot of troops.
Yeah, you're right.
We can't turn back now. We have to fight and win.
That's right.
Let's do this.
We can do this.
Are these guys serious?
Orga, what now?
Let's see...
What should we do?
I admired torn clouds when I was little
I felt like I could fly up to them with toy wings
La La La La La La
The wind wavers like waving hands and shadows dance
It's like I'm being beckoned to traces of a lost friend
An iron flower that is deeper than blood
Love becomes a bond
Having started to run, we are travelers of the era
Far and far, strong and strong, bloom in the barren land
If you've fixed your sight straight ahead,
hope is in your hands
Don't lose Burn up your life
Nicely done.
I've attained a toy I can play with a lot.
The moment I put on this mask,
I will gain the life of a different man.
Maybe I'll change the way I talk, huh?
No, I will not do that.
