What happened? What's going on?
Hurry up and do something!
Can't we warp?
Escape shuttles don't have that kind of equipment.
The real wind, the real sea
Everyone, are you okay?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Where's the gravity storm?
How does it look?
I can't see anything.
The instruments seem to all be broken.
Maybe we weathered the storm.
Even if that were true...
I guess that gravity storm wasn't such a big deal after all.
What's going on up there?
Only our shuttle seems to have been left behind.
That can't be!
But why just this shuttle?
Shingo! After you came in here, you were touching all sorts of switches!
It's definitely because of that!
If that's it, then how about you, Howard?
What's that?
Wait! We'll look into that later.
Exactly! We still don't know if we're going to be rescued.
Shingo, can you figure out where the shuttle is?
I don't think we should be that far from our colony yet, but...
First off, we should turn on the rescue beacon.
I am the computer installed in this craft, M-17.
M-17, where are we?
That is impossible to determine.
Can we send out the emergency beacon?
That is impossible.
This thing is useless.
Why is that?
This craft will momentarily enter a planet's gravity well.
Please fasten your seatbelts.
Gravity well?
Did we get close to some planet?
Earth?
That's impossible.
Yeah, Earth already stopped being a blue planet.
Then what planet is that?
The former earth?
Are you saying we flew through time?
It might not be impossible in space.
Have we come to the world of long ago?
If so, what's going to happen to us?
Stop being ridiculous!
I can't take it anymore!
Will you give it a rest?
Hurry up and do something!
What is this thing?
Whaddaya mean, "This thing?"
I have a proper name, you know! It's Chako!
--I'm sorry! She's my robot pet! --Idiot, let go of me!
You thought it was okay to bring something like that along?
"Something?" I'm not a thing!
I knew that, but there was a little mistake, and...
You knew?
The shuttle getting left behind is that thing's fault!
That's just silly!
It's obviously true!
You two are going to take responsibility for this!
Howard, calm down!
Exactly! The shuttle wouldn't cut itself loose just because an extra animal got on!
Then how come this happened?
As usual, you're a barking dog.
What?
More importantly, is it okay to be getting so close to the planet?
This craft is beginning its approach to land on the planet.
We will enter the atmosphere momentarily.
All passengers, please take your seats and fasten your seatbelts.
Landing?
Even though we don't know what planet that is?
M-17, can we avoid it?
It is impossible.
This craft will momentarily enter the atmosphere.
M-17, are we equipped for that?
Now landing under autopilot control.
Okay, everyone, let's take our seats.
State of emergency entered.
Due to the damage to the ship, activation of autopilot is impossible.
What did you say?
The gravity storm must have affected the computer.
Computer system cannot return to normal operation.
Reserve systems cannot be activated.
Performing forced shut-down.
Wait! What do we do when we enter the atmosphere?
Computer system... down...
What's going to happen?
At this rate, we'll be destroyed by the atmosphere.
The shuttle's going to burn out?
What?
We're going to die?
Stop kidding me!
You think I can die in a place like this?
Calm down! Isn't there anything we can do?
We should be able to fly it manually, but without knowing the angle of approach...
But, the computer...
Chako!
You finally remembered I'm here.
Gauges're all busted, huh?
Ah well, it'll work out somehow.
Guidance calculations okay.
Entry angle calculated.
Autopilot is impossible after all.
Luna, take the helm.
Wait How do we know you...
Luna, do you have experience?
It's my first atmospheric entry...
...but I have piloted an escape capsule before.
Can you do it?
We have no choice but to let her try.
I think so too.
Me too.
Bell, damn you!
Okay, we'll leave it to Luna.
Everyone else, take your seats.
First off, you hafta point the ship straight.
Press the left button on the lever, and the jet propulsion switches will come out.
First is roll.
Push the bottom left switch for two seconds.
Stop.
Next is top left for two seconds.
Stop.
Next we have to lift the nose.
Top for three and a half seconds.
Sixteen above level. We're entering nose first.
Close the heat-resistant shutters. It's the bottom right lever.
Roger.
There should be some switches lined up at your upper left.
Those operate the cooling system.
These?
Cooling system activated.
Entering atmosphere.
Outer wall temperature rising.
Set cooling to maximum.
There's a lever on that last panel, right?
This one?
Cooling system at maximum.
What's next?
That's all.
From here on we leave it in the hands of fate.
Airspeed good.
Altitude 25,000.
Luna, we made it through.
Really?
Open the front shutter.
Roger!
Are those... clouds?
Yep.
Real clouds.
I guess we succeeded.
It's a little early to celebrate.
Set the nose back.
Roger.
What is this?
It's lightning.
It's my first time seein' the real thing too.
After the lightin' comes the rain.
What should I do?
Can you see the ground?
It seems like just ocean.
Alright, we'll land on the water.
Raise the nose.
Roger! I'll give it a try.
Luna... are you awake yet?
Chako...
Ah! How's everyone?
Safe. Nobody seems to be hurt.
Everyone, wake up!
Sharla.
Howard.
Howard!
Luna...
What happened to us?
It looks like we survived somehow.
The sea!
The clouds are moving.
It's the sun.
I wonder where this is.
That sun's the real thing, right?
It's obviously a man-made sun.
But this doesn't seem like the inside of a colony.
That's right! Those clouds and the sea right in front of us don't seem to be man-made.
That's really the sun!
It's the first time I've felt this.
It's warm and soft and gives me a happy feeling.
It's true.
If you're saying that's the real sun, then this is Earth after all?
I ain't sure about that, but the atmosphere's composition seems to be like Earth's.
Wha'?
Come to think of it, we've been breathing this last while, but...
The shuttle's systems are supplying us with Oxygen, right?
All those're totally busted.
Wha'!?
What'cha gettin' all surprised about now?
We've been breathin' this planet's atmosphere for a while.
Lookee here!
The outside air's gettin' in through here.
Is the air's composition okay?
It doesn't have anythin' toxic, but the amount of Carbon Dioxide is five times normal.
Don't worry.
That's well within your tolerance.
The seawater is okay, too.
Yeesh! What's going on here, anyway?
Can we send out the rescue beacon?
Can't. The shuttle's systems're all totally busted.
Then there's nothing we can do?
They should have noticed on the ship that our escape shuttle was cut loose.
That's right. They'll have realised we're gone by now and will start looking for us.
Then we're supposed to hang out here like this until help comes?
Anyways, let's open the hatch and see how things look outside.
Agreed!
The wind feels nice!
It seems like a real world.
A real sun, the real sea, real clouds, and the real wind.
--I'm gonna look too --Let me see! Let me see!
I wanna see too!
Beautiful!
They certainly look real.
Don't they?
--Somebody move and let me see too. --Is the real sea like a giant puddle?
There!
It's land.
It's true!
Land, land!
There's foliage.
Maybe there are animals too!
Can we swim there?
It's dangerous, and furthermore, far.
I've certainly never swum in a real sea.
Oh yeah! Maybe there's some equipment in the shuttle!
Then let's look around for it!
Here!
There's a boat!
There's a laser gun, too!
And a knife and a mini-light!
There's a sewing set...
...there's more...
...Mineral water and emergency rations.
What, this is all?
Let's distribute them among us.
One of each for each person.
We don't know when we'll be able to refill them. Everyone manage their own eating and drinking.
We'll save the rest for later.
Don't talk so miserly.
There's sure to be something when we reach shore.
We don't know that for certain.
Shut up!
I certainly know it!
What will you do if we find a dangerous animal?
When it happens, I'll use this.
You can use it?
Papa took me hunting lots of times.
By hunting, you mean shooting at special animal robots, right?
If you ask me, that's a dangerous hobby.
It's something nobles have a taste for.
After all, it's just a game.
What?
Stop it!
At least while you're holding something so dangerous!
I'll show you my skills sometime soon.
Are you really going alone?
Yeah, just me will be plenty.
I'll go with you.
I don't need you.
It'll be faster with two.
And you plan to row by yourself?
Do what you want.
Alright.
Hold it still!
Will he really be okay?
Menori, here.
Luna, I'm leaving the rest to you.
Be careful.
Howard.
Okay, let go.
Luna.
We're depending on you.
While Menori ain't here, everyone's countin' on you to protect us.
Keep your head clear.
We're turning.
Row more reliably!
I know! That's what I'm doing!
What just happened?
I couldn't see the waves coming from behind.
That's why I said it was dangerous!
This is why swimming across is unrealistic!
Keep it up!
Keep going!
Fight!
Luna, Kaoru is...
What's wrong?
Let's call them back.
Look!
What's that?
What is it, what is it?
What can you see?
Big trouble!
There's a weird animal!
What did you say?
It's going after the boat!
Hey!
--Menori! --Menori!
Menori!
Come back!
Hey!
It's dangerous!
Come back!
I'm all worn out.
Keep going! If you give up, we're done for!
It's stopped.
It's true! We've stopped!
It seems like we got away from them somehow.
Come back!
Hey!
Hurry back!
Come back!
It's dangerous!
Come back!
Hey!
Howard!
Below you! Below!
Did he say below?
What's up, what's up?
That's a flashy welcome!
Otherwise I might not've noticed.
Wrong, wrong, Chako! It's aiming for us!
What?
That's right! It's because I'm a little more attractive!
Too bad, after you guys ignored me for so long.
Just stay away forever!
Next time: What's going to happen to us!?
