Big news, big news!
What's wrong, Yasu?
The news is that...
Gyanko from Odessa Academy lost in an exhibition match?
No way!
The news is true.
And her opponent was a middle school team.
Which school?
It was Seihou Academy.
Seihou...
But their team loses in the first round every year.
Looks like Odessa's Gyanko has fallen pretty low.
You can't say that for sure.
Kousaka Yuuma was part of Seihou's team.
Kousaka?
Kousaka Yuuma, the one who took the grand prize in this year's artistic Gunpla competition?
And it appears there was a fighter who uses a strange form of kenpo.
Japan's number one builder from middle school and a mysterious martial artist?
We'll win anyway.
In the water, we're invincible.
Why is that man on top of the jungle gym?
Don't look at him!
No matter who appears... I won't lose!
Isn't that right, Mamoru?
"Limits don't exist."
「限界なんてない」
"Absolutes aren't real."

"Limits don't exist," that's what you said to me

I stretch my hands to you because you're what I want to be
見憧れてこの手を伸ばしたんだ
"I haven't done my best," you laughed and said again
「全開出してない」って笑ってまた

It was the same thing that gave us our start
始まりなんて同じで
That sharp and heated knife just pierced right through
熱くなったナイフが僕らの
the centre of our beating hearts
胸を貫いた
We continue to run the race, in the rain when everything's wet
雨のレースの上走り続けて
Even if we lose sight of each other or get hurt
傷ついて見失ってもまた
Because we can't let ourselves forget
忘れられないから
The skies are gray but we're still showing off our faith

Don't care about any of that, the blame or pain,
もう気にもならないぜ BLAME と PAIN
Oh, just grab a hold of that glory and gold
OH つかみ取るのさ栄光
Take your heart, turn your flame on!

"There's no way," you said, but I think I'll go against that
「絶対ない」って言葉に逆らって
and stretch my hand up high to get the dream that I swore to get
誓った夢へとこの手を伸ばしてるんだ
There's no right way now, you can find the answer there,

In our hearts that's where you'll find that unexpected memory

Episode 4
G-Muse
Sekai, Yuu, and I have formed Team Try Fighters.
We've also managed to register for the Gunpla Battle Championships without any problems.
In preparation for the West Tokyo Regionals next month, we have been training pretty hard.
Come at me, Sekai!
Jigen Haoh Style... !
Gale Thrust!
He overpowered Mr Ral's Gouf!?
He took that head-on on purpose.
How about that, Mr Ral?
So this is your Jigen Haoh Style.
I see. That was a good punch.
But... how about this?
Field changed to 1 - Space.
The surroundings have changed to space!
Now, try the skills that you're so proud of!
You asked for it... !
Jigen Haoh Style... !
I can't keep my footing!
I see... It's because there's no ground to step on.
Then... I'll try the Whirlwind Tornado Kick!
Battle ended.
My... Jigen Haoh Style...
Sekai.
You pilot your Gunpla based on the kenpo that you've experienced in person.
However, you could only give out your true potential under the conditions that you yourself have experienced; under gravity.
The fields in Gunpla Battles include outer space...
... the Moon, with 1/6th normal gravity...
... under high pressure underwater, and many others.
Unless you can use your Jigen Haoh Style to its maximum potential under any conditions,
you won't be able to win your way through the Championships.
Okay!
You were lucky that the battle damage level was set to the lowest.
Otherwise, your Gunpla would be in pieces.
Where are you going, Yuu?
I'm going home to start some work.
I have more equipment at home.
I'm looking forward to seeing it.
I can't wait to see the workmanship on the upgraded Lightning Gundam.
Come, shall we resume our practice?
Mr Ral.
There's something I'd like to discuss with you first.
What is it?
I want to change the Gunpla that I'll use in the Championships.
"Illustrated Encyclopaedia of All Gundams"
I've been thinking a lot after the exhibition match with Gyanko.
Sekai's unit, the Build Burning Gundam, is a close-combat melee type unit.
Yuu's Lightning Gundam is an extra long range sniper unit.
To order to make use of the attributes of their units, mine has to be a mid-range type.
And I'm thinking it might be better if it's an all-rounder unit with support capabilities.
I see. You have a point.
But if that's the case, then the Powered GM Cardigun that you're using now should be sufficient.
I was hoping for something to increase the mobility and firepower.
Then how about the Blue Destiny with the EXAM system?
I don't think it fits the role of a support-type unit.
How about the Gundam Ground Type?
You can carry support weapons in the container on its back.
But that would reduce its mobility.
And the Ground Type is only suited for land-based combat.
Firepower and mobility, and a capacity for support weapons...
I would prefer a mobile armour, but...
The rules state that you require 3 people to pilot one.
All right, Fumina! Then let's just go for it!
Let's use the Gouf!
Mr Ral, were you listening to me?
I'm just kidding!
Oh, come on, I'm really worried about it!
I'm sorry.
What are they talking about? I don't understand it at all... !
If you're going to make a new one, then it doesn't have to be one that's in the club room.
Fumina, tomorrow's Sunday. Why don't you take a trip down to G-Muse?
Okay. I was thinking of that myself.
Hoshina, what's G-Muse?
G-Muse is...
This is a good opportunity to take Sekai down and have a look with you!
Training in battles may be important to you,
but it's also important to experience for yourself about the depths and complexities of Gundam and Gunpla.
I see.
Sekai, are you free tomorrow?
Well, yeah.
Then let's go on a date.
Or something like that.
Okay...
It's been a while since my backside has started to feel itchy...
Say, Sis.
Yes?
What should I wear on a date?
A date? You!?
Yeah.
With who?
With Hoshino.
With Hoshino!?
Yeah.
I-I see...
With Hoshino...
How did you ask her out?
She was the one who asked me out.
I-I see...
Looks like Hoshino is unexpectedly daring...
So what should I wear?
Well...
Just wear what you normally would.
There's no point making yourself uncomfortable with something you're not used to.
So that's how it is?
Probably.
By the way, what's a date?
You need me to tell you that!?
Sekai!
You're early!
It's still 10 minutes before we're supposed to meet.
My sister told me to make sure I'm not late.
And she told me to just dress normally.
I see.
Well, it's still a little early, but let's get going.
Okay.
It feels kind of strange that we're not in our school uniforms.
I guess dressing normally feels unexpectedly awkward instead.
Dad, Mom... Sekai might be a little strange...
But I will make sure he grows up to be a healthy man.
And I'll make sure he won't make any impulsive mistakes that any other boy his age will make!
Because I'll be carefully monitoring him.
What was that?
I'm getting a bad feeling about this...
We'll be there soon.
Okay.
Sekai, do you think you can close your eyes?
Why?
Just do it!
Okay.
This way.
Hoshino... What a daring move that is... !
Keep your eyes closed.
Sekai's climbing his way up the ladder of adulthood way too fast!
Your sister thinks it's way too early for you for that!
Open your eyes, Sekai.
No!
A-Amazing!
What a large Gunpla!
Isn't it?
But it's not a Gunpla, it's an actual-sized statue...
There are so many people here... !
Gunpla must be pretty popular!
Well... It's more like Gundam instead of Gunpla that's popular...
Amazing!
Gunpla's amazing!
It's pretty fun inside as well.
Let's go!
Okay!
Yup, your sister trusts the two of you... !
But still... This Gunpla is really amazing!
These are all Gunpla!?
Exactly how many are there... ?
Did you find anything good, Hoshino?
Umm... Looks like it might be better to get a Ground Type and modify it for space...
But if that's the case, then the Zephyranthes might be better...
But there's also the Thunderbolt version of the GM...
Please, take your time.
Wow, you can build Gunpla here too.
Not just build, but battle as well.
How about it? Want to give it a try?
But I've never built one before.
It's all right. I can teach you.
And a suitable Gunpla...
I'd recommend an SD Gundam for a beginner.
Doesn't it look a little short?
It's a Gunpla that's been deformed from its original design.
Pick one that you like.
Sekai, what are you doing, leaving Hoshino all by herself?
Kamiki!
Kousaka? Why are you... ?
I needed some parts for my Gunpla so I came here to buy some.
What are you doing here, Kamiki?
With sunglasses on too.
That's... Umm... Well... !
All right! I pick this Gunpla!
That voice...
I'm feeling a little thirsty...
How about a cup of tea, Kousaka?
Really!?
Of course! Come, let's go.
Okay... !
Great job, sister!
What an excellent surprise this is... !
Enjoy the rest of your date, Sekai!
This is what you wanted.
A 1:100 scale Master Grade Queen Mantha.
Wow, excellent workmanship!
I expected no less from you, Sakai.
You really are the hope of the Shingyo Style.
Thanks!
But still, why did you order from me all the way in Osaka?
Aren't there a lot of great builders in Tokyo as well?
The truth is, the person we ordered from cancelled at the last minute.
Who was that?
It was Kousaka Yuuma.
Oh, so that's it.
So I'm just his replacement, I see.
Oh, no, that's not what I meant...
I'm feeling a little depressed now.
I'm sorry, Sakai...
Where did Sekai go?
Jigen Haoh Style... !
Holy Lance Kick!
Battle ended.
How about that!? What do you think about my Gunpla!?
Sekai?
Ah, Hoshino!
I was feeling a little bored, so I decided to battle.
What's with this Gunpla?
I built it just now.
You did, Sekai!?
Yup.
The staff here taught me how.
What do you think of my Musha Godmaru?
Let's have another battle!
My turn next!
Sure! All of you can take me on together if you like!
What was that, loser?
Did you say something?
Well, well, looks like people from Tokyo are just so vulgar.
Cancelling people's orders, feeling pleased with themselves at beating a bunch of kids...
You have to be serious in all your fights.
That's what my master taught me.
Talking so high and mighty when you can only make a Gunpla of that standard.
What did you say!?
Hey kids, sorry, but how about letting me go next?
I'll beat him for you.
But you don't have a Gunpla.
I'll just build one now.
It's done.
A-Amazing!
He built a Gunpla...
... in the blink of an eye!
I'll teach you how we fight real Gunpla Battles in Osaka... !
Gunpla Battle, combat mode, start up.
Model damage level, set to A.
Please set your GP base.
Beginning Plavsky particle dispersal.
Field 3 - Forest.
Battle start.
Kamiki Sekai, Musha Godmaru, heading out!
Kouki Gundam has arrived.
Come at me, Tokyo brat!
I'm no Tokyo brat, but I'm coming at you all the same!
Holy Fist Thrust!
Such a weird move...
But... !
He dodged it!?
He's fast!
Do you think such moves are useful for an SD Gundam with their short arms and legs?
SDs have their own way of fighting!
He transformed!?
You don't even make use of your unit's special abilities and just use brute force!
You are so lacking in skills!
Shine, Beam Crystal!
What power... !
Sekai!
Hey, loser.
All you're doing is pushing your own senses and intuition into the Gunpla!
The essence of a Gunpla Battle...
... is to have the fighter and the Gunpla both fight together as one!
Unless you can use your Jigen Haoh Style to its maximum potential under any conditions,
you won't be able to win your way through the Championships.
I have to become one with my Gunpla and use the Jigen Haoh Style to its maximum potential...
If I'm the Musha Godmaru...
If I'm the Musha Godmaru itself...
If I'm the Musha Godmaru... !
"Explosive Form"
Super Mode!
So, it's the Explosive Form.
All of my power, concentrated into this fist... !
Looks like you got a little spirit in you!
The Kouki Gundam's super finishing move!
The Single Slash of the Ghostly Crystal!
How's that!?
I'm not done yet!
Flight mode!?
Gunpla is freedom!
And in that infinite freedom, this is what I have made real!
That's right! This is the shape of my heart!
Battle ended.
Amazing!
How was that? I was pretty cool, wasn't I?
Sekai...
My Gunpla... lost...
I...
You understand now, don't you?
Just how little you know.
Small fry like you should just act like it and stay out of the way.
The essence of a Gunpla Battle is to have the fighter and the Gunpla both fight together as one!
Gunpla is freedom!
Hoshino. I really know nothing about Gunpla Battles.
But... I'm starting to understand what it is that I'm lacking.
I also feel like I've learnt something.
That Gunpla is about going beyond your own imagination and making it real.
I'm going to practise!
I'm also going to build it!
I'm going to build my very own Gunpla!
Wow, you two are so lovey-dovey.
It's time to kiss now! Kiss!
Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!
What are you talking about!?
We're not going to do that!
Eh!? You're not going to kiss?
I said we're not going to! I said we're not going to!
Go fight! Go fight! Ready!
GO FIGHT! GO FIGHT! READY!
Go fight! Go fight! Let you go!
GO FIGHT! GO FIGHT! LET YOU GO!
Putting on a sullen face this one day
冴えない面して ONE DAY
Doesn't feel like I can do it this way
難攻不落の THIS WAY
All my branching thoughts, I think I need to sort my feelings out
枝分かれの思考 気持ち直して
Is this is the right way, so I question.
こっちであってるの QUESTION
Why don't I just choose and make a motion.
出たとこ勝負の MOTION
Staggering ahead, and moving forward under a rainy sky
よろめいて進む 泣き空の下
Judging things by stereotyping
ステレオタイプ なんて
I'll dropkick you to the ground if you do that.
決めつけないで ドロップキックするぜ
Take my hand and let's go, let's take off and fly!
手を取り合って飛び出すんだ
Fly away higher
FLY AWAY HIGHER
Beyond the skies that we see.
空の彼方
The world's amazing, I'm sure I can find it if you're here with me,
アメイジングザワールド 一緒なら見つかりそうさ
Go together
GO TOGETHER
At supersonic high speeds
音速のハイスペードで
Joining up the little lights that flash and flash from deep within our hearts.
胸に光る点と点を繫ぎ合わせ
Like a rainbow
LIKE A RAINBOW
We can find out with this lasting bond that we share
揺るぎない絆で FIND OUT
Let's dive right into where the light shines most bright.
光指す方角へ DIVE
Go fight! Go fight! Let you go!
GO FIGHT! GO FIGHT! LET YOU GO!
Thanks for the tea, Mirai.
That's okay, it's my pleasure.
That Gunpla... !
Amazing... What level of workmanship... !
Is it on par with my own work? No, it's even more detailed than mine... !
That mark is... !
So, it's him.
Someone you know?
Yes.
The person who built this Gunpla is the foremost builder among Osaka's middle schools...
Sakai Minato of the Gunpla Shingyo Style.
