What does the world you see
look like?
I don't want to get used
to the pain of losing loved ones,
but the stars are so beautiful tonight
We are like two sides

Wake up, Watase Aoba!
Okay, okay.
Zogilia to Mine New Natural

Now, for our story.
A Zogilian government agency has stated that they believe Nectrobium,

Aren't you going to be late? It's your first day back!
I'll be fine if I catch the 7:12 train.
will become a revolutionary energy source that can potentially replace all current sources of energy.
I swear! Are you sure?
Thanks for breakfast.
They intend to begin full-scale mining operations sometime in the near future.

High school kids sure have a hard time commuting.
Quiet, middle-schooler.
Tsubasa, hurry up and get ready.
Okay!
Well, I'm going.
Fire Dept
See you later!
Be careful!
I think I cut it a little close.
Press The Button to Cross
Barely made it.
Aoba.
Over here.
Hey, long time no see!
What did you do over the summer?
Hawaii.
For real?
Morning.
High School

High School
No, I'm telling you it's for real.
Morning!
For real?
Good morning!
Yo.
Sup?
We got new seats.

Crap, I'm in the front row.
I'm in the back. Score!
Let's see...
Aoba, you're next to Yumihara.
Ooh.
Morning, Yumihara.
M-Morning, A-A... Aoba.
Nice to see you.
Uh, nice to see you...
Off the Coast of Hachijo Island
Since this is the first day of the second term,
I'm going to go over the schedule.
First, the midterms are in October...
Yumihara Hina.
She's a returnee from abroad,
who came back to Japan in April and enrolled in this high school.
That's about all I know,
but she keeps acting kind of cold towards me, maybe she's just nervous.
Did I do something to her?
Got it.
What?
Here.
You okay?
I-I...
I'm fine!
Thank you.
Uh, sure...
Actually, why are you always so nervous?
Watase! Yumihara!
What are you doing?
Oh, no... We're not really...
It's nothing.
So sorry about that.
Oh, damn it!
So, Aoba wins yet again?
He's a basketball machine.
All right!
Then it's my turn next.
Sure.
Aoba, did you do something to that returnee?
Huh? You mean Yumihara?
Yup. Her name's Hina, isn't it?
She's a cutie, isn't she?
I'm jealous, Aoba.
Huh? You're not making any sense.
I haven't done anything.
But y'know, seems like ever since the entrance ceremony,
it's like she can't take her eyes off you.
I was talking! That's no fair!
There's no rule that says I have to wait.
He's good at basketball, don't you think?
In middle school, we were both on the basketball team.
Well, until I got hurt.
I'm the one who picked this high school,
since it's close to where I get physical therapy.
And then Aoba got it in his head to come here too.
It's not even his fault I got hurt.
It made me happy.
I was really nervous about going to a different high school all by myself,
on top of being injured.
Isn't he a great guy?
Hey, Yumihara.
What is it about Aoba that you like?
It's not like I...
Off the Coast of Hachijo Island
What just happened?
Where am I?
My coordinates...
Is the clock broken?
It's 2014?!
It can't be...
I've traveled across time?
Then, this is the past?
If that's true...
I'm definitely in the past.
What's with this pathetic security?
Watase Aoba
Tokyo Prefectural Seio High School
That's right! That's definitely you, Watase Aoba!
To think I'd run into you even in the past!
I'm coming for you!
What's this?
What's wrong?
I got a disaster warning.
Feel any shaking?
Nope.
False alarm?
Yeah, maybe.
A-Aoba... Everyone...
Hmm? What is it?
Hey, look at that.
What the hell is that?
So you did come.
What is that thing?
It's huge!
What a stupid look you've got on your face, Watase Aoba!
You look like you think this is a dream!
This isn't a dream!
Run!
Damn it!
What the hell is going on?!
This way!
Ryutaro! Junichi!
So it's after me?!
I can't hit him! Why not?!
It can't get a good lock on him?
It needs line of sight!
Damn! I'm out of ammo?!
Why is that thing after Aoba?!
Junichi, I'm borrowing this!
Borrowing what?!
This is the end!
What?!
If it's me you're after, follow me!
Don't mess with me!
Hey, there's something flying this way!
That's a robot, isn't it?
Everybody, run!
What's with them?!
Staying in back alleys...
You think you can escape me?!
Where'd it go?
Yumihara?!
Follow me!
Why?!
Why would you—
There's no time! Hurry!
H-Hey!
Damn it!
CVP-014A, activate!
That's far!
It's over!
What the?!
Another one?!
Activation process, all green.
I made it in time!
That's...!
Wait!
Get in!
Yumihara!
Hurry!
It can't be...
Are you really the Yumihara I know?
Be quiet.
Why?
Why the hell?
Why?!
Hina, why?!
Answer me, Hina!
I know. I just need this one time.
Goodbye.
Amazing...
Two rounds left.
Enemy energy reading, terminated.
You beat him?
Yes.
Wh-What are you looking at?
You okay?
I'm fine!
Can I ask you about it?
About what?
All of this.
All right.
You might not believe it,
but I came here from the same future as the person in that robot.
You mean...
We're time travelers.
I am...
And he was too.
Then, what about this robot?
Yes, it's from the same future.
It's falling apart, though.
I've been watching you closely
since I came back to this time.
Watching me?
Yes, the whole time...
The person who became the Aoba I know.
Watase
Yumihara
Fuji
Miyano
Tanabe
Today, when we ended up seated next to each other,
I was really surprised.
I'd never imagined, even in my wildest dreams,
that we'd ever be sitting next to each other.
You look confused.
But I couldn't afford to be apart from you.
Because I knew he was going to come kill you someday.
How?
Well...
You told me he would.
I what?
Whoa, hey, things are about to get crazy here!
Aoba, get out.
Wh-What?
My job here is done.
I was able to stop the person who wanted to kill you.
Go back to your normal life.
You can forget about this story of people from the future.
Hold on, Yumihara. What are you going to do?
I'm going to run.
I don't want to get caught, after all.
You're going back... to the future?
I don't know how to do that.
I'm gonna run, that's all.
Just run? Where to?
They've seen this robot, they'll track you!
I know that!
I don't exactly have a lot of options, do I?!
I know!
Hina, even after this defeat,
even in death, there's still something I can do!
Don't tell me he plans to self-destruct?!
What?!
Eject!
It won't open!
Hey, we're taking damage!
It's falling apart due to lack of maintenance!
I never thought you'd be here, Hina.
I knew you'd be coming.
I see.
In that case, do you know what happens after this, too?
The three of us will die together!
This is...
The singularity...
I see. So that's it.
Huh?
Hang on tight.
Hina, what are you planning to do?!
What are you thinking?!
I finally understand.
So, this is how it was fated to be.
Fated?
I'd always wondered...
Why you'd appeared before me...
Why I've been unable to forget you...
Yumihara...
It's Hina.
Hina?
Aoba, trust me.
All right, Hina.
That was quick!
You plan to fly in there?!
It's starting to close!
Here we go!
Aoba...
This is goodbye.
Goodbye?
You're going to the future.
The future?
What about you?
Dio is waiting.
What?
Who's that?
Wait!
What's going on?
Hina?!
What is this?!
What the hell is this?!
Dio is waiting, Aoba.
Hina?
Hina!
Dio?
Dio!
Dio, do you read?!
This is Dio.
I have two on my tail.
I can't shake 'em!
Sorry! I've got my hands full here, too!
Same here!
I'll handle it somehow!
Dio?
Dio?!
Concentrate your firepower!
Get them under effective fire, stat!
Targets are moving too fast!
Fall back! All units, fall back!
We've lost the 1st Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battalion!
This is bad! We probably don't have much left down there, do we?!
We'll have to fight these guys with no cover fire!
What is all this?!
The Luxon's Feeling Match number is rising!
What are you saying, Corporal Nasu?!
Wait, Mayuka, there's no one aboard that one, right?
But the reading...
And the Matching with Dio is extremely high!
Who the hell is Matching with me?!
Where the hell am I?
Where's Hina?!
Nice Coupling.
Our hearts call to each other from afar
I've forgotten the end of pain,
but still I know you,
and I look for you
My soul kissed the remnants of a powerful light
deep within itself
If doubt paves the way for a tomorrow full of hope,
then all my hesitation is sure to lead me to a wonderful dawn
I want to protect and shelter
our dream of peace
Please hold out your hand
to grasp the love
that we are sure to find
