During the first half of the 21st century,
a revolutionary energy source called "Nectoribium" was discovered,
which in turn shook the world's structure.
The great Zogilia, who had a history of excavation,
conquered nearby countries in order to increase their power.
In response to this, some countries formed the "Confederate Treaty of Liberty Alliance"
and fought against Zogilia as the world's final hope.
The alliance was at a severe disadvantage
and sought a new type of combat system.
This was the Coupling System.
But at the time, the system was flawed and suffered numerous setbacks.
As a result, the project was halted.
However, two years ago during the Third Far East War,
the project was secretly resumed.
After rectifying the flaws, the—
What...
Aoba-san?
Wake Up!!

Engine changed, maximum speed, ready for arrangement.
He's an expertise when it comes to sleeping during lessons.
Captain! That's not nice.
But I'm worried about Mayu-chan.
The Coupling System is highly classified information.
Whether he's a time traveler from the past,
or an unregistered civilian, he must always be observed.
Don't worry, Corporal Nasu is the best when it comes to self-defense.
But…
Captain.
I understand, Lieutenant Lene.
I'm so sorry. Erm..
My name's Nasu Mayuka.
I figured that I would teach you some of the basics since you told me you don't know anything.
But I'm also very busy since I'm the one in charge of the Coupling System.
Mayuka-chan, are you a specialist?
Oh, no.
Actually, I'm just an assistant to the technical officer, Elvira-san.
I'm sorry. I was tired.
Trying to operate a robot while running for my life was very difficult.
It's called a Valiancer.
That's right. A Valiancer.
But there shouldn't have been any Valiancer units around 70 years ago.
Yeah, it came from the future. That's what Hina said.
Hina?
My classmate, Yumihara Hina.
She came from the future to save me and brought me to this time period.
I wonder what happened to her after that?
If your story's true...
then what?
The most likely explanation would be...
That it was a dream.
You don't believe me at all.
Oh, lift's here.
This way please.
This is the Valiancer you were piloting, Luxon.
Luxon?
Just a while ago, I was definitely in there with Hina.
Valiancer and war.
I really did come to the future.
Weird. It looks so different from before.
That's because it's a prototype. It's always being improved upon.
Elvida-san is rewriting the data for you to operate it, Aoba-san.
Data? For me?
A Valiancer must be calibrated for the pilot in order for a Coupling to succeed.
The next time you pilot it, it'll be even better than before.
Huh? I have to pilot it again?
You're not?
Then why did the captain have it modified?
I... have to fight again.
What're you doing?
It's him.
No more guns please, Dio.
I told you not to call me by my name.
Corporal Nasu. This area of the ship is classified by the joint headquarters.
Civilians are prohibited from being here.
I… I was ordered to show him around by Elvida-san.
Mayuka-chan did noting wrong.
Why don't you just tell me directly?
You are not a soldier. I won't force civilians to obey military rules.
Did the army also teach you to yell at women?
Corporal Nasu is a soldier as well.
Excuse me. The both of you..
The battle deployment alarm.
We're in trouble.
Hey!
I'm sorry, Aoba-san. Please return to your room.
Wait, Mayuka-chan!
Where is my room?
The Valiancers have past the third warning perimeter.
Two more minutes before they make contact.
Engines need five more minutes for a crash drive.
We'll need to hold them back for at least three minutes.
Everyone, prepare for battle.
Sorry I'm late.
I've finished. Help me with the rewriting.
Understood.
All Valiancer units are to defend the ship until it is ready to dive.
Understood.
Three enemy units. The same type as before.
There's less of them this time.
This is going to be good.
Valiancer team, launching.
All units have been launched.
Okay, prepare for a crash dive.
Yes, sir.
So... what are you doing here?
Incredible.
No previous data on their flagship.
Is it also a new-type?
It kinda looks like a white swan.
The enemy ship's engine is increasing in output.
Are they planning to outrun us?
Enemy units spotted.
Don't get hit before the real show begins.
Our goal is to hold them off. Don't overdo it.
Valiancer team has engaged the enemy.
Activating Nectar shield.
Commander, it's seven sequences to the surface.
Dio, the one with the red crest is yours.
Yes, sir.
Is that all you got?
Seems like we've overestimated you.
This will be easy.
The white new-type hasn't appeared yet.
It has begun.
Commander we're almost ready for a crash dive.
Valiancer team, return immediately.
All units, return please.
We're getting out of here.
Yes, sir.
I've been waiting for this.
"Everything went as planned," huh?
We should return, too.
Damn.
I don't like this.
Enemy Valiancers are falling back.
Commander, ready to crash dive.
Valiancer units are returning at our 10 o'clock.
Cygnus, maximum speed...
Warning! Incoming high energy source at our 6 o'clock.
Avoid it.
Changing course.
The rear water tank has been damaged by a Nectar Cannon.
A Nectar Cannon?
There should be no such weapon in this area.
I'm bringing an image up now.
A Valiancer?
That mecha is...
Don't tell me it's Zogilia's...
Alfred Gallant.
So the enemy that was tailing us was his teams.
Our left engine has been heavily damaged.
This is the Nectar Rifle.
I can't believe they managed to create a portable Nectar Cannon
for a Valiancer unit that has already been deployed.
Two consecutive shots is its limit.
The star of Zogilia's army came bearing new weaponry,
we really are unfortunate.
Maximum speed unattainable, we can't lose him.
Valiancer team, begin counterattack.
We are going for it now.
What the...?
They didn't fall back?
Good job on the diversion, Bizon.
Took some effort but that was expected.
The real battle starts now. Let's go.
Yes, sir.
At this rate, Cygnus will be destroyed.
We'll deal with those three.
Dio, can I count on you to defeat Alfred?
Of course.
Is that it?
At that speed, it doesn't appear to have transformed.
How convenient.
Is he trying to run away?
Hurry up.
If you're not quick enough, we'll all be dead.
We got shot again?
Yeah.
We are in the middle of a battlefield, after all.
Battlefield?
And this time the enemy is even stronger. You may have to fight again.
Can you swim?
The sea is bellow us, you know?
You may live little longer if you can.
Don-san, Aoba-kun, I need to talk to you guys for a moment.
Oh, Captain.
Me too?
Enemy is closing in on the final warning line.
Be careful, Dio.
Just a bit more.
There he is.
Why isn't he fighting back?
The fun begins now.
It was a trap?
This weapon is useless in close combat.
While it's recharging, back me up.
Capture the new mecha.
Yes, sir.
Close combat?
Perish, enemy of Zogilia.
As expected from Hina.
She isn't called Lieutenant Riazan's best disciple for nothing.
This is Bradyon. I've been surrounded by three enemy units.
Is that all, Alliance new model? I expected more from you.
This guy is strong.
Damn it. I'm surrounded, too.
The enemy's goal is the capture of Bradyon.
What about our backup weapons?
They're too far away from the ship.
Dio.
Have I completely lost to Alfred's trick?
All set. Luxon is ready to launch anytime.
What? Luxon?
Aoba-san!
That guy.
I'm truly sorry that I have to rely on you, a civilian, once again.
However, in such desperate situation, I have no other choice but to ask for your help.
No. I, too, don't want to die like this.
Let me fight.
But it's still scary.
Are you ready for launch?
Yes.
You've already shared Dio's knowledge from the previous Coupling,
so you should have no problems flying.
Prepare for launch.
Anyway, fly towards the red mecha.
We will direct you with the Coupling timing.
The timing window is small in aerial battles.
Please be careful, Aoba-san.
If you can't handle it, you should turn back now.
Who in the world would give up?
What's with this guy?
Luxon, let's go.
Lieutenant Colonel, the other new mecha is approaching,
I've got him.
Hina,
you heard him.
Don't let your guard down.
Yes, sir.
Entering the Coupling region, ETA 15 seconds.
In the end, it's with him again.
What?
Are you running away?
Let's do it, Dio.
Luxon is within range of the Seventh Code.
Start the Proposing.
Connect with Dio!
Accept!
Approach ring activated.
Starting the guidance navigation.
Approach ring assigned. Beginning linkage.
Fourth veil is opening.
Emphater level increasing. Start Consolation.
Commencing Esthev navigation guide.
Coupling complete.
They've finished Coupling?
Bizon, the enemy.
Leave it to the Lieutenant Colonel.
This is...
What?
That is?
I'll leave here to you.
Where is "here"?
This again?
Could this be...
This is Dio's?
Disappear, enemy of Zogilia.
If he can last for at least a minute, I'll...
I see.
A completely different speed from before.
But speed is merely a number.
You thought it'd hit?
He was able to dodge it visually?
Impossible.
Fall.
Did I miscalculate?
Lieutenant Colonel.
I'm sorry, Passo. I'll be back on my feet.
Yes, sir.
I won't let you get away!
Lieutenant Colonel?
Lieutenant Colonel.
This guy.
Dio counted on me to handle this.
Go away!
That Valiancer unit, Alfred of Zogilia, is being cornered.
Luxon is also putting up a good fight.
Of course. It is a Coupling mecha.
The Coupling System is when both pilots begin sharing all of their potential to each other.
Through linkage, pilots not only link their minds, but also their senses to the other.
By doing this, the Valiancers' power is drastically increased.
Zogilia pilots are now facing a Valiancer exceeding conventional limits.
What overwhelming speed and power.
We have underestimated the alliance's Valiancer technology.
Or is it...?
Lieutenant Colonel, I'll stop him for you.
Stop. Do not engage.
What?
There's no way you can hit me.
Passo!
At least target the cockpit.
I'm going to backup the Lieutenant Colonel.
Understood.
Yeah.
What kind of mobility is that?
I'm used to it so far.
I don't see Dio's hands anymore, but...
What kind of move was that?
Don't make fun of me!
What?
I did it.
The enemy's pilot...
Hina?
Hina!
Hina? I remember...
Emphater levels decreasing.
That's dangerous. Separate them immediately.
I'm working on it.
The link has been forcefully broken.
Why?
Luxon has opened the cockpit.
What?
You... what are doing in the middle of battle?
Hina. Hina is there!
That bastard.
Dio, prepare yourself.
No!
Forced Decoupling.
Bradyon's performance is dropping.
Dio, get a hold of yourself.
U-Understood.
Wake up, Hina.
Sympathy towards the enemy.
I'm not sure about that.
Maybe he doesn't see that person as an enemy.
An alliance pilot.
Hina. Are you awake? You okay?
Why do you know my name?
It's me. Watase Aoba.
Aoba?
Yes. Aoba. Now, I'm going to your side.
What is he doing?
Is he trying to capture her?
You bastard! Stay away from Hina!
Bizon.
Just in time.
Get out of the way!
Aoba, get back inside your mecha.
Lee-san? But, Hina..
I don't care who. If it's necessary, bring her.
Understood.
Don't come near me.
You are an enemy of Zogilia.
Hold on.
Battle Priority System has been activated.
Hina.
Hina, are you okay?
Bizon.
Let's retreat.
Lee!
Lee-san.
Captain Conrad. Please reply.
The enemy?
They're also at their limits.
All units retreat.
Lasha, understood.
Tarjim, understood.
Bizon, got Fortuna.
You have failed, Lieutenant Colonel.
I understand, Special Service Agent.
There shall be no more failures, Alfred Gallant.
First Lieutenant Duran, what's the condition of Beryl?
The left arm was destroyed, however, the cockpit is undamaged.
I'll open the 2nd hatch now. Return immediately.
Yes, sir.
Hina's alive.
Can you confirm Luxon's condition?
I cannot.
He said Hina?
