Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It's my alarm clock. Yes.
Don't worry. I'll be there on time.
I'm excited to see Millie again, I haven't seen her in a while.
What? Hey! I won't be late this time.
Yes. Then, I'll see you at 1:00.
Wow! There they are.
All right! I'll work hard today!
Episode 12 The Day the World Floated Away
The 100 Years Memorial Ceremony
It is the 100 year anniversary since The Eight City Union was born.
Surprisingly, 100 years ago the world that had been sealed...
under the ocean, rose back up to the surface.
Today, we are visiting Mrs. Helena Nakayashiki...
who just had her 108th birthday.
I was still a child back then.
So, I didn't understand why all the adults were so happy.
But, I remember, my heart beating...
with lots of excitement without knowing why.
And another thing...
I still remember seeing the blue sky for the first time in my life.
It was endlessly clear and so beautiful.
We'll soon begin the 100 Years Memorial Ceremony.
It will be broadcast live all over the world.
Today is the anniversary when the submerged...
metropolises rose to the surface.
However, it is sadly also the anniversary of the tragic accident...
when one of the submerged cities, Elpida, was destroyed.
Hundreds of thousands of lives were lost in a single moment.
Maia, what's going on over there?
Everything is fine! It's quite peaceful.
Listen! A good paying government job like this is rare for us.
You must keep a tight guard.
Keep an eye on the ceremony, and carefully patrol the city.
Oh, darn. I wanted to sample food from every street vendor this year.
Stop complaining!
We have the government's permission to shoot guns today.
National Establishment Day! Let's give a big cheer for the festival!
Bang!
There's always some festival in your head.
What did you say?! Do you want me to...
sacrifice you first?! You idiot!
M e m o r i a l
A long time ago, due to a state of emergency on Earth...
the human race lost their land and escaped to the origin of all life...
on the planet, at the bottom of the sea.
Those were indeed hard times for them.
However humans brought an end to those hard times...
with the strength of their own will.
Just 100 years ago, our ancestors returned to the surface...
and embraced the sun once again.
But, as a result...
many precious lives were lost from the nation of Elpida.
Their souls are now sleeping in the deep sea.
I wish I could show them the same blue sky above us today.
When I think of it, it saddens my heart.
But, we overcame our sorrow and won our future!
The submersed metropolis Genikos has become Greenland City...
Proodeftikos became Alaska City.
Entyposiakos became Scandinavia City.
Chara became Lavladol City, and Eirini became Patagonia City.
Noimosyni became Siberia City.
Idianikos became Kamchatka City, and...
Ousiastikos became Antarctica City. All the cities have prospered now.
Thanks to our ancestors great decision, we are here right now.
Let's follow in the brave ambition of our ancestors and...
embark on our great future together.
Three more hours. All right!
Sorry, but can you daydream or lose your memory after you finish your job?
Oh, yes.
Everybody should patrol their individual assigned areas...
as I explained in yesterday's meeting.
Our real job is starting now.
Wait!
Fool! Who's going to wait just because you say so?!
Wait! Wait! Wait! Wait!
Listen! Don't cut corners just because no one is watching you!
Work hard, or I'll make you work overtime this afternoon.
Understand? Maia? Maia?
I understand!
Excuse me, but if you keep the bathroom occupied...
other people can't use it.
What did you say?!
Oh! Branch Manager.
Oh! It's you, Maia.
Are you also treating me like a stumbling idiot?
Oh, no. Not at all.
But, I thought you were taking the day off...
to spend time with your family?
What?! What's wrong with me?! Can't the family provider have a drink?!
Who cares about my wife?! Who cares about my daughter?!
I'm the head of the family!
Papa! I hate you!
Yukari!
Don't fool me you bastard!
Nice! You missed. Zero points.
Shut up! Why the hell didn't it hit the target?
You're a damn cheater!
Don't accuse me just because you can't hit the target.
Are you going to play, or not?
If you aren't playing, then get out of here.
There are a lot of people in line behind you.
Move away!
I'll do this right with real bullets!
Hey, you're supposed to be patrolling now.
Don't cause any problems!
Uh, thank you very much.
Move it! We can drive wherever we want!
If you don't want to get hurt, then get lost!
Hey! Stop it!
Starting a fight in a place like this! What the hell are you thinking?
I mean, would you mind explaining?
Detective, why don't you stop them?
Idiot! Are you telling me to die?!
This is not a place for little girls to play.
Hey! Are you listening?
A weak dog barks a lot.
What did you say?!
Oh, Maia dear, it's you.
Hi, everybody. Long time no see.
Wait!
Hey, wait for me.
Maia, dear! Why don't we help you?
How did it turn out like this?
Who knows?
One more hour.
Mama.
Oh, what should I do?
Mama.
Hey, what's your name?
Kirika.
Kirika, can you tell me your mommy's name?
Kirika's mama.
No, it's not that.
Oh, Kirika.
Lost Child Center
Reception
Kirika?
Unfortunately, we didn't receive any reports of a lost child.
I see.
Old man! One more large crepe with Kimchi topping, please.
You got it!
Excuse me!
I wasn't goofing off.
I was just consulting with this man here.
Is Kirika's mother around here?
Kirika's mother!
Oh? Were we assigned to that job?
Kirika is right here.
Kirika! I'm here. It's your mommy!
Mama!
I'm so glad that you found your mom, Kirika!
- Mama! - Kirika!
I was so worried about you.
I asked to do that job, because I thought...
her mom would easily find us up there.
Well, you did a good job.
And, that outfit suits you very well.
What? Stop, you're embarrassing me!
Oh, do you know what time it is?
Oh, let's see.
Oh, no!
I'll be late! I'll be late! I'm going to be late!
Co-sponsored by The Ocean Agency and...
the new car manufacturing company, Albatross...
the Hover Car Exhibition Race will begin shortly.
I'm sorry. I'm late.
Long time no see.
Millie!
I'm sorry I pushed you to race today.
I know you're busy.
Oh, don't worry about it. I'm happy to do this.
I've been looking forward to racing with you today, Millie.
Let's have a good time today.
Yes, let's do our best!
Let's have fun!
We should all have a good time, Maia.
Yes. Afterwards, we can check out the food vendors.
Then, let's go!
Oh, Tsukasa!
Maia, we'll do our best, but try not to get hurt.
Food vendors are waiting!
Damn amateurs!
I guess Maia made it in time.
I hope she's not exhausted after working so hard today.
I wonder who will win.
It doesn't matter, it's just an exhibition race.
Well, I think this race will be very exciting.
What?
Hey! Do you guys want to take a share of some of our bets?
Right now, number 2 is the dark horse.
Hey! Be a man! Make up your mind!
Well, then I'll bet on that one.
I'll take that one too.
Here are the new models from the Albatross Corporation...
this year's official car of the Ocean Agency.
The different colored cars are lined up nicely.
Time to watch their performance.
Now, the roar of the engines is indicating their start.
The drivers are clutching their steering wheels getting ready to begin.
Damn!
What's going on?
Fast acceleration and smooth shifting are the special features...
of this new model.
They are now approaching the first corner.
Please note its beautiful cornering.
Damn it!
Hey! They're fighting with each other?
Isn't this just an exhibition?
Taking the challenge of any race to heart.
It's so like you, Millie.
It's getting exciting.
All right, go!
Maia, hang on! One more lap.
Maia moved to the top spot!
Millie.
She's so good!
All right! Go!
Good work.
You are so skillful. I could never beat you.
It's because I have this.
Oh, who is she?
She's my Great Grandmother.
She is also one of the people who...
saw the blue sky for the first time 100 years ago.
Great Grandmother.
She was a racer like me.
Actually, I became a racer because I wanted to be like her.
It was nice that I could race with you before I leave.
Before you leave?
I decided to move to Alaska City.
What?
It's the home of the car racing industry.
I'm going over there to see how well I can do as a professional racer.
So, I guess I have to say goodbye now.
I've been wanting to go to a far away place since I was young.
A place I haven't yet seen.
Going as far as I can has been my dream.
Just like the people who reached for the sky 100 years ago.
Millie, good luck.
You too, Maia.
I'm sorry, Maia. There's an emergency, and I have to go back to work now.
I wanted to try out the food vendors with you, but...
I see. If it's work, you can't do anything about it.
I'm really sorry.
Hurry up, Tsukasa.
Yes! I'll be there. Well, see you later.
Yes. See you later.
Why are you so sad? Did you lose your memory again or something?
Everybody...
The festival is not over yet.
Hey! Let's hurry before all the food vendors close.
I want to try every single food vendor this year.
They are totally broke because of you.
So, why don't you treat us all?
Why? Why do I have to?
Oh, isn't it beautiful, Grandma?
It is. I was looking up at the sky like this 100 years ago.
Oh, it's so big.
When I first looked up at the real sky, I thought...
"Oh, I'm looking up at my future now."
Nemuri ni tsuku mae niwa itsumo

Humanity's historic undertaking since the rise of the submerged cities...
has now reached the hundred year mark in its new age.
During the ceremony, Maia saw that Tsukasa was walking an elite path...
with the Ocean Agency, while Millie was seeking her own dream.
Looking at their paths, how does Maia feel?
What kind of future can a girl have when she doesn't have a past?
