Fire the Gala Puska!
We've destroyed more than half of the enemy fleet!
We did it... We did it!
What in the world is going on?
We're mopping up what's left of the enemy!
Form up!
Let's go, Hina!
We're going to kill Watase Aoba!
Slava Zogilia.
Acception
Our strike team has broken through the front line!
Prepare to fire a second round!
A second round?
The plan doesn't call for that!
I'm in charge here.
Enemy units have broken through our front line!
Concentrate on them!
We should still have the upper hand!
Don't let them fire that cannon again!
Message from the fleet flagship.
The reserve forces are to destroy Gorgon.
They want us to rush the enemy base in this chaos?
What would you like to do?
Orders are orders. We have no choice but to do it.
Roger that, sir.
Full speed ahead!
The fate of this battle is up to you two.
I'm counting on you, Dio and Aoba.
Absolutely no Coupling in these Valiancers!
I'll send your adjustment data on ahead.
They're different Valiancers, but the cockpits will be the same.
Good luck.
Follow me!
Don't fall behind!
Roger!
Firing again?
They say it'll take half an hour.
That fool. Is he high on luck?
If we can hit them like that again, our victory is assured.
That weapon has the power to destroy cities and fleets.
You think that's without a cost?
The Gala Puska draws its energy directly from Nectoribium.
The Nectoribium consumed firing that weapon one time
is equal to the amount Zogilia can mine in one year.
Seriously?
A whole year's worth? It can't be...
Winning the war would be meaningless if we had nothing to return to.
But it was your idea to use that weapon, Alfried Gallant.
Commander?
Let's go!
We'll take advantage of their confusion
and secure our victory!
Roger!
Slava Zogilia.
We've been caught up in the fight against Zogilia's vanguard!
We can forget about destroying Gorgon at this rate.
Valiancer Team, move out!
Hanging us out to dry, huh?
Cut the chitchat, Jarl!
Here we go!
Roger.
Yeah, yeah.
Damn it! I can't break through!
Their numbers have increased!
I'm going to create an opening! Follow me!
There's no need for that, Commander.
Bizon?
Hina and I will do away with the enemy.
Hina, let's conduct a Coupling.
Roger.
Doctor, if you please.
All processes are green.
Connective, Hina!
Acce-
What are you doing, Hina? "Accept," right?
What a troublesome child.
I'm sorry. It looks like there was an oversight on my part.
I've fixed the problem. It should be fine now.
Be careful! What if something were to happen to my Hina?!
Sorry about that.
Here we go!
Connective, Hina!
Hina!
Now, go show them.
Slava Zogilia.
Indefatigable and Inflexible's Valiancer teams have been wiped out!
Codewave detected from the two enemy Valiancers!
They're Coupling Valiancers!
What?!
I had no idea they had Couplers over there...
Look, Hina!
This is what the two of us are capable of!
What's gotten into Bizon?
This is amazing...
Don't let this chance slip by! Let's go!
There's the Swan, Hina!
Aoba's come all this way for us!
You're in my way! Move it!
They're too fast!
There's no way we can go up against Coupling Valiancers!
Oh, no! The Cygnus!
Left NECTTAR Gun has been hit!
Right engine nacelle has been hit!
Output down by 40%!
T-minus thirty seconds until NECTTAR Curtain is charged up again!
Be gone!
What the?!
It's the Luxon Next and the Bradyon Next!
Aoba!
Well it's about time!
A NECTTAR Rifle?!
Those Valiancers aren't identified.
New models, then?
Let's do this, Dio!
Don't order me around!
Connective, Dio!
Acception.
Enter the heroes.
You two took forever!
No kidding.
Coupling Valiancers?
They're the Confederation's new Coupling Valiancers.
The pilot is probably...
Watase Aoba!
Aoba...
Those Valiancers...
Are they the ones you saw in the past?
Yeah, the one that came to kill me and the one Hina used...
Don't tell me...
Here we go, Hina!
Is it Hina piloting that one?!
Here they come!
What's with those new Valiancers?!
Amazing...
So that's what combat looks like between Coupling Valiancers...
Emphatier Level at 90%
It's the greatest Match we've ever seen!
I never imagined
that we'd be seeing combat between Coupling Valiancers so soon...
This should yield some valuable data.
This is...
Elvira, please look.
What is this?
At any rate, this means the enemy's overwhelming advantage is gone.
Attack with everything we've got!
This is the turning point!
We're taking losses.
So we've lost the element of surprise.
And we've been reduced to relying on Coupling Valiancers, too.
Damn it! They're strong!
Aoba, if you don't fight like you're going to take them down,
you're going to get killed!
I know that, but...
Both of you, listen!
There was some weird signal noise, so we analyzed it.
There's something strained about the Coupling on the enemy side.
They might be forcing something somewhere.
If that's true, it's an opening we can take advantage of.
So I have an idea.
I see.
This is a gamble. And one with pretty bad odds at that.
Let me do it. I'm sure Hina's in there.
All right.
Here we go, Aoba!
Right!
Decoupling!
They dissolved their Coupling?!
Hina, can you hear me?!
It's me!
What?
What the?! Damn it!
The cockpit can do this?!
What...?
Hina! It's Aoba!
Aoba...?
That's right! Aoba!
Aoba...
It's me! It's Watase Aoba!
You're you, right?
Aoba!
Hina!
There's the forcible Decoupling!
Now!
All right!
You! What did you do, Aoba?!
Dio, Aoba.
It looks like they're getting ready to fire Gorgon again.
We've got about four minutes until then.
There's no time.
Understood.
Let's go, Aoba!
Roger!
T-minus three minutes to firing.
Please wait! We still have friendlies on the battlefield!
We've informed them. We will fire as planned.
Understood.
Three Valiancers approaching at high speed!
Are you awake, Hina?
Aoba...
I had no idea that you were a Coupler.
I don't really understand.
I thought I declined Doctor Hahn's request that I be a pilot...
What do you mean?
I don't know the details,
but knowing him, I imagine he'd do anything.
That's my Hina!
Hina! You okay?!
Let's conduct a Coupling one more time!
Stop it, Bizon!
They're coming! We have to hurry!
Connective, Hina!
No!
What's wrong, Hina?! Are you okay?!
Answer me, Hina!
Hina!
Stop!
The enemy Valiancer is emitting Force Consultors!
I knew it...
Hahn, you've made it possible to conduct Couplings
that ignore the will of the Couplers, haven't you?!
The mistake lies in being shackled by preconceptions.
The enemy is trying to force a Coupling!
Hina, the two of us are going to conduct a Coupling now!
What?
It'll be fine, Hina! Trust me!
Aoba...
Hina!
Connective, Hina!
Do it, Aoba!
Connective, Hina!
Emphatier Level is rising!
It's still going up and up and up!
What's going on, Aoba?!
Ensign Ryazan...
Aoba.
Hina.
In the beginning, I hated you.
That's true.
But you continued to place your trust in me all this time.
This time, I'll place my trust in you, Aoba.
Acception.
Aoba...
Why, Hina?! Tell me why!
What's going on? What is that light?!
U-Unknown!
To hell with it! Fire the Gala Puska!
A singularity of unknown origin has appeared at coordinates 125, -979.
It is beginning to expand.
Gravitational anomaly detected.
Internal mass increasing at a geometric rate.
Retreat! Retreat!
Propulsion problem on Proto-Valiancer Unit 2.
He will be pulled in at his current rate of acceleration.
What's wrong, Unit 2?! Accelerate!
D-Damn it!
Bizon...
I'm pretty sure that's the thing from when...
What is it?
I told you before, remember?
I went into that thing and came to the future.
A time tunnel...
A time tunnel?!
I see, so that's the thing you were talking about...
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it looked like that.
It can't be...
Why you!
You won't get away with this,
Watase Aoba!
Because you brought me here.
A Valiancer suddenly came after me at school
and you saved me, remember?
Aoba will be... attacked...?
A time... tunnel...
I get it now!
Hina!
What's wrong?!
Aoba, it's exactly like you said.
What?
This time, I'll be the one to save you!
Wait, Hina!
Don't, Aoba! It's dangerous!
Out of my way, Dio! If I don't go now...!
Hina!
Accelerate, damn you!
See you later, Aoba.
Hina!
I...
I wonder when this is...
It'll be fine.
I have time. I'm sure of it.
Wait for me, Aoba.
I see, so Hina...
Hina alone...
...has been going back and forth across the same time all along...
...to make sure I...
I...
Who... am I?
Hina has been doing the same thing over and over again,
and I've never been able to stop her...
Hina...
Hina!
Aoba, it's exactly like you said.
What?
This time, I'll be the one to save you!
Wait, Hina!
Aoba, hurry!
What?
What's wrong?
You're not going to stop me?
Why would I stop you? She's Hina, right?
The one who saved your life?
Oh, yeah, that's right.
You know, don't you?
See you later, Aoba.
Hina, don't go!
Aoba?! Why?!
It's time to put an end to doing this over and over again!
What are you saying?!
If I don't go, Bizon will come to kill you!
I know!
It's no use saying anything to him right now.
You got this, Aoba? Don't miss!
Right.
What are you bastards doing?
So long.
Damn you!
Aoba!
Hina!
Evacuate! Evacuate!
What happened to Bizon?
The Alaska Base...
It's not as if this war is over.
Is this our punishment for misusing Nectoribium?
The Zogilian forces are withdrawing!
So, we managed to survive somehow.
This is Dio. Rendezvousing shortly.
Aoba, likewise.
Aoba!
The heroes return.
Aoba,
why did you stop me?
Why? Because...
I didn't want to let you go. That's all.
That was your chance to go back to the past. So why...
That's...
This guy doesn't think.
The hell was that?!
There might still be other chances, right?!
Talk about optimistic.
But it's true, isn't it?
No one knows the future, after all.
Aoba...
Besides, there's a guy who'd miss me if I left.
Are you talking about me?!
Who else would I be talking about?
You're more dense than I thought.
Dense...! You're one to talk!
You're right. No one can know the future.
Like anyone would miss you!
Bradyon Next, Luxon Next, and one captured Valiancer.
Coming in for landing shortly.
Roger.
Ready to receive Valiancer Team!
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
Central Committee Political Administration Bureau of Zogilia
So, the time has finally come...
There's no hope left for you.
I'll make you feel my wrath,
Watase Aoba.
