That's why I told you to buy a new one...
This truck's a piece of junk.
Yeah.
Shut up!
Stop complaining...
I'd love to retire this thing.
Your husband just doesn't make enough money—
That's mean!
It isn't Pedro's fault... It's the economy.
I'm sure Kal and Ari will be surprised
when they hear Noelle's married, with a kid.
So many people...
They've all come to see tomorrow's welcoming ceremony.
Welcoming ceremony, huh?
The government has some nerve,
considering that they sent all those people to Isla to get rid of them.
And there we go!
Get in, you two... It's getting late.
Tomorrow, we have to be first on-site.
After all, it's our kids' big day.
Yeah!
Episode 13 The Sky Where You Are
Speed 15 knots.
As planned, we'll be home by morning.
Then our journey's finally at an end.
It's been a long time...
But learning our world looks like this is a surprise.
The three seas Saint Aldista created to catch the rain
are these three oceans, in a staircase formation.
The first stair, the second stair, and the third... Three seas.
Supporting them, the giant bedrock is the flagstone.
And this edge is the End of the Sky.
A rainbow wall created to keep seawater from pouring off the edge.
The water is absorbed by the wall and temporarily destroyed...
Before spurting up from the Holy Spring, which is the center of the world.
This shape... It resembles a larger Isla.
Perhaps our world is actually a special structure
that Saint Aldista created.
Balsteros is located here...
We passed through the Holy Spring
and this sea, where the Holy Levamme Empire lies.
We then went to the End of the Sky and returned.
It's hard to believe, and I was here...
I doubt the hard-headed idiots in the government will believe it.
Hard-headed idiots?
What are you trying to say?
You little—
Enough...
If Balsteros and Levamme work together,
we could solve even deeper mysteries of this world.
High Consul Fana Levamme says the same.
But it'll be hard to persuade Balsteros.
We have all the cards we need.
You're...
Nina Viento, no...
Claire Cruz's friend.
When she left, I saw you at the Mercurius flight zone.
Is that all?
You are Leopald Melze, former commander
of the Balsteros Imperial Army.
The Imperial Army?
Why bring that up?
It's been almost ten years since the Wind Revolution...
Impossible.
It's been a long time, sir.
We last met was at the palace when I was quite young.
Everyone, I'm seeing something unbelievable...
The flying island Isla's crew, which left our nation, has returned!
With the help of our unknown ally,
the Holy Levamme Empire!
I would like to begin by thanking Saint Aldista!
And all those who believed in, and waited for, us.
After making our treaty with the Sky Clan,
we passed through the Holy Spring and back to the sea,
where we set course for the Holy Levamme Empire.
Admiral Luis told them everything...
That the legendary Sky Clan was real.
That we fought them.
And how we met the Holy Levamme Empire.
About Isla's end.
Now then, I'd like to introduce someone to all of you.
The former Balsteros Empire's crown prince...
Karl La Hire!
Hello, everyone.
I am the one who was once known as Karl La Hire.
I have revealed my identity
because I'd like to make a request.
Kal!
No way!
Wait, what? Are you serious?
The prince died in the revolution...
Don't be fooled. He's a fake!
I have not come here to discuss politics with you.
I would like to retrieve someone.
She went to enemy lands
as a hostage, so Isla could continue its voyage.
Her name is Nina Viento!
Yes, the leader of the Wind Revolution that you all remember so well.
The Governor of Isla, Nina Viento.
When I first arrived at Isla, I hated her.
I hated the power of the wind that had taken my rank
and my mother away from me...
I participated in the Isla plan to take revenge on her.
But Isla taught me so much...
The people I met there
spoke to me and led me.
To forgive, not hate!
That, alone, can bring us a better tomorrow.
We can build a happy future for everyone.
I want to retake the girl I love!
At her side,
I want to create the future!
The girl he loves?
Does that mean...
I...
I love Nina Viento!
Everyone, please let us begin a second Isla Plan!
I want to start a journey to force the Sky Clan to open relations with us, and retake Nina!
I'm surprised.
This is more than I expected.
To take advantage of the historical romance, and bring the public to our side...
Wasn't that your plan, Foreign Affairs Minister?
Yes.
In every era, people have always loved drama.
With their support,
it's quite possible to overthrow the revolutionary government.
Why didn't you tell me until the last second?
I didn't want you opposing me...
And I wanted to see your reaction when I did.
It's just the kind of guy I am... I hope you'll forgive me.
Especially after all we've been through.
That won't happen.
Governor, wait a little longer.
We'll be there soon.
And the man you love will be with us...
Hey, Kal...
That was amazing.
Stop it, Noripii.
That was quite the proposal.
You were great... Really wonderful, Kal!
My face is still all red!
Yeah, I'm amazed you said all that embarrassing stuff in public!
Amazing...
Amazingly embarrassing.
What do you mean, "embarrassing"?
When Kal first told us about his identity and his plan,
I was stunned.
Oh, come on... It was wonderful.
I'm sure Claire will be happy.
Thank you.
Come, everyone, and let's take a picture.
I heard you're going to teach at a civilian flight school?
Yeah.
Teaching little kids like you.
The gorilla-woman will be going with me.
Who are you calling a gorilla?!
Weirdo...
If you want, you can go right back to the military.
I'm going to try and become a teacher again.
I'll miss you, but I'll be wishing you good luck.
If you all grow up to be splendid adults,
that would make me happier than anything...
Teacher!
I will never forget how you saved me.
Nor will I.
Me, neither!
Everyone...
I'm taking the picture.
Here I go.
Cadoques High, Aerial Division students, as of today, you...
Happy graduation!
H-Huh?
Where's the RA?
Contact the mother country.
Yes, ma'am.
If there's a new Isla Plan, we'll have to intervene.
Kal, look!
Welcome back!
Kal... Ari!
You've grown up so much!
Sisters...
Welcome back, kids.
I'm home!
You got even bigger...
What have you been eating?
I'm back, Father!
You're a man, so don't cry.
Kal... Ari...
Welcome home!
It has a good sound...
Ari tunes it.
When I try, she won't let me touch it.
She thinks she's a real engineer, huh?
We were both in this when we saw the End of the Sky.
It was amazing...
I couldn't have imagined it.
I see.
Hang on tight!
I need to talk to you about something.
Tomorrow, I'm going back to Alexandra.
There are many things I need to do before my new journey.
Get going.
Aren't you going to save the girl you love?
That's so great... That's my son!
Yeah?
Damn! You really have grown up...
You're starting a fight that involves the whole world,
all to save the woman you love, huh?
Go up!
Fly even higher.
Right.
Everyone... Cheers!
Drink! Drink! Eat! Eat!
You won't be eating like this for a while...
Look at who I've got!
Just look at him.
He's grown up, and it's kind of weird.
Kal, this is...
The Aerial Knights' next main fighter plane, the Maestra.
Its top speed is over 700 kmph.
A fixed-wing single seater.
Admiral Luis got me a prototype.
A single-wing single seater is their primary fighter, huh?
Times have changed.
I'm off.
Yeah.
I look forward to seeing your wife.
Yeah, I'll bring her back.
Don't do anything too crazy.
That's right.
Make sure you come back!
Yeah... Believe in me, Noelle and Manuelle.
Kal...
Ari...
You aren't saying goodbye to me?
N-No, that isn't true...
Well, it's a bit late for that!
And I don't like big goodbyes.
Ari...
I...
Well, thank you.
It was because of you
that I...
Kal...
Ari...
You were about to say something cheesy, weren't you?
I sensed the danger, so I punched you without thinking.
Sorry!
What?
I haven't even said anything yet!
Why act like this now?
Right, right.
I get it... Go.
Go, get Claire, and then head home!
That's all you have to do.
Ari...
Go!
I said go, dummy!
Yeah, I know.
I'm going, I'm going!
I'll be back!
Don't return until you have her!
I know that...
Jeez... For a little sister, you're pushy!
And you're my little brother!
You're my little sister!
Little brother!
Little sister!
I'll be back, everyone.
Goodbye... My prince.
Some love songs can't be sung.
It's for the best, isn't it?
Isn't it?
You'd better return, stupid brother!
And bring Claire with you!
Yes? Who is it?
Is this the home of Mitsuo Fukuhara's parents?
Y-Yes.
My name is Chiharu de Lucia.
I was his fellow student.
I wanted to give you this personally.
I heard you made the Ciela Sazard Aerial Guard.
Congratulations.
When will you be leaving?
Next month.
I need to prepare...
By the time the flowers bloom,
we'll be over Haizuran skies.
I want to be your right arm.
Sharon...
So just wait a little while.
I'll do my best, and I'll catch up soon.
On your days off, come and see me, okay?
Yes.
In a plane, 500 kilometers is nothing.
Congratulations on your return!
Banzai! Banzai! Banzai!
Thanks!
Seriously, what's wrong with you?
Everyone returned to their lives.
And then...
Enemy flying fortress, distance 30,000 meters.
They're here.
Sir...
Open fire.
Fighters, engage enemy escorts.
Bombers, attack enemy fortress!
That's the silver fox!
Thanks!
Come on!
I'm almost there.
Wait for me, okay?
Kal...
Kal?
Claire?
Kal, the sky's so blue again today, isn't it?
Do you remember the day we first met?
Yeah, I'll never forget it!
Ever since I first saw you,
you were the only one I ever cared for.
I'm coming, Claire... To the sky where you are!
I'll take her back.
And then, I'll never let her go.
We'll be together forever, flying through this sky.
Flying in an infinite summer sky, singing an endless song of love!
