Rice
Number Four Food Factory
Rice
What are you doing there?
Hey, stop!
Come back here, rice thief!
So, did that guy die?
I heard he survived.
They caught him, then transported him to the hospital.
Women's Photosynthesis Chamber
He tripped over a pole and plummeted ten meters. How's he still alive?
Bi-gender Photosynthesis Chamber
He raided the rice factory, right?
That's scary.
What's that? Did something happen?
We're talking about that underdweller.
Underdweller?
That's ridiculous.
That's just an urban legend.
The city's been around for a thousand years.
They say the tunnels beneath the foundation are so complex that
if you get lost in them, you'll never get out.
That's what an urban legend is!
Then let's go see if it's true or not.
What?
You know which hospital he's in, don't you, Ren?
Yeah.
I'm going to pass on this
since my test is coming up soon.
Yamano is as studious as ever.
We're currently in a state of war!
You all know it's our duty as cadets to become pilots as soon as possible,
so that we're prepared to defend Sidonia when called upon!
And here you are just...
Oh, it's Kunato and Hoshijiro.
I wonder if they'd come with us.
Hoshijiro would, but Kunato...
Yeah. Let's just go.
This Garde was once piloted by a legendary war hero known as the Flying Ace...
Mark 17 Garde Lunar White Model Tsugumori Specially restored lunar white edition used at the end of the Fourth Gauna War.
My dream's to pilot it and protect Sidonia from Gauna.
It's nice that you have a dream.
Hoshijiro, come over to my place.
What?
Having the head of Kunato Developments as an acquaintance will make everything work in your favor
when you become a real pilot.
Is it true, Kobayashi?
What does the trespasser have to do with HIM?
What? What happened to Hiroki Saito?
We discovered Saito's mummified remains when we were tracing that trespasser's steps.
We need to confirm if he really possesses all of Hiroki Saito's knowledge and experience.
As the captain, I will oversee this matter personally.
But what's more important now are...
The Gauna.
D-doctor!
The patient- The rice thief has escaped!
I wonder if we made Yamano mad...
She didn't have to talk to us like that.
She said we're in a state of war, but we haven't been up against Gauna in over a hundred years.
If there's never gonna be another battle,
then what exactly are we training to become pilots for?
Well...
Yeah...
Once we've reached the end of our life span, all we have left is to go to the organic converter reactor, huh?
Throw down our weapons!
The military must call off this war at once!
An anti-war demonstration!
They're at it again.
Huh? Is that Kunato and Hoshijiro?
You young'uns must listen to me.
Sidonia is being controlled by the Immortal Council.
Fourth Captain
Thirteenth Captain
They've been pretending for hundreds of years that we are at war so they can extend their lives!
Nineteenth Captain
Twenty-eighth Captain
You're all delusional.
Don't turn away! You must not ignore the truth.
Honestly.
This is the problem with these activists.
No!
Not the organic converter reactor. You can't make me go there!
Ouch...
I'm on the surface.
Someone down there stop him!
Not the organic converter reactor.
Don't worry.
You're completely healthy.
Here's the hospital's report.
You won't be turned into fertilizer for a while.
You should really thank her.
She volunteered to bring you here today.
You say your name is Nagate Tanikaze.
You were living underground with your grandfather.
He died and you ran out of food, so you broke into the rice factory.
Look.
There's no one with the name "Nagate Tanikaze" here.
If you're gonna lie, at least make it believable.
Are you okay?
Food.
Jeez.
Is this the police station that the underdweller was brought to?
Yeah, that's right. Who are you?
I'm sorry, sir.
Nagate Tanikaze, there's someone who wishes to become your personal guarantor.
I'm here on their behalf.
My name is Ochiai. Nice to meet you.
It must be tough not being able to photosynthesize.
Having to constantly feed yourself.
Thank you, sir.
Let's keep it casual.
What's your first impression of being on the surface?
It's the same as what I saw in the virtual training consoles.
They included a residential area combat setting.
I see.
You're on your own from here.
What?
Now, go on.
You're Nagate Tanikaze, correct?
I'll be looking after you from now on.
I have a favor to ask you.
I want you to become a Garde pilot.
Will you do it?
100 Sights of Sidonia: North 93rd Apartment Complex
100 Sights of Sidonia: An External Stairway For Pilots
You're the new cadet, right?
I'm Hiyama, the matron of this dorm. Nice to meet you.
Oh, this?
I hurt myself when I was very young.
But don't worry.
It's never once interfered with my work.
Never mind that, your clothes really stink.
Hurry up and change out of your clothes.
All right. Introduce yourself.
What?
What's the problem? Introduce yourself.
I-I'm Nagate Tanikaze.
Hello, everybody.
"Hello, everybody"?
Hey, isn't that guy...
That's the underdweller.
What? I heard he was a rice thief.
Hey, you!
Nagate.
Nice to see you again.
Oh, yeah?
You don't remember me?
Yet you remembered Hoshijiro.
I'm Izana Shinatose. Nice to meet you.
So do you have some sort of special ability or something?
Huh? Not really.
It's just that it's not that easy to get into the Garde pilot cadet program.
Oh, really?
They usually hold parades in town when someone gets accepted.
I thought there was something special about you since you were accepted so quickly.
You're wondering what I am, right?
Huh?
Whether I'm a boy or girl.
What? No!
I'm neither.
What?
I guess you didn't know living underground,
but there are genders besides male and female now.
It doesn't matter who my partner is for conception.
When I choose one, my body changes on its own.
1st Norio Kunato 2nd Shizuka Hoshijiro
I see.
So close. Second place again.
What's this about?
It's a virtual training console.
Hey? Nagate, wait!
Hey, look.
Isn't that the new guy?
Mark 18 Garde Virtual Garde Training System
Mark 18?
Is that a new Garde model?
Do you know how to operate this?
It's different from what I used underground, but I think so.
Everyone is curious to see what the new mystery cadet is capable of.
All right.
Good luck, Nagate.
1st Norio Kunato
Unranked Nagate Tanikaze
Don't feel bad. Your fingers are injured.
Actually, not anymore.
The Gauna main core is located near where the human brain and spine would be.
Concentrate your attacks on one location to open a hole.
Then, stab them with a special weapon that disintegrates the outer wall.
Right. That will incapacitate the Gauna and expose the Ena.
And the only thing that can penetrate the Gauna's core is...
...one of the 28 remaining spears in Sidonia.
The Kabizashi.
What? Impossible.
It's me.
The Mark 17 that was on display went missing!
Look into it ASAP!
Mark 17 Garde Lunar White Model Tsugumori
If I had a Mark 17...
If I had a Mark 17, I wouldn't have lost.
I guess people underground do cleanup a little differently from us.
I'm not-
Deployment Order
Nagate! It's our first sortie!
Though it's just a mining expedition.
Congratulations on your first mission, Tanikaze.
Not too bad since you just joined. Impressive.
Yeah. I can finally pilot a real Garde.
We've confirmed the presence of ice on a nearby asteroid.
Kunato Squad
Hoshijiro Squad
We can have the cadets perform the mining operations, but...
Is that okay?
I'm not sure they're ready.
It doesn't matter.
Nagate!
Don't be reckless. Walk on the floor.
Like this?
Tanikaze. Your Garde unit is in lane five. Hurry.
The Tsugumori.
It's really the Tsugumori. Awesome.
That new guy is going to pilot it?
Why is HE going to pilot...
MY Tsugumori?
Hey, you.
It's a waste to give this unit to a rookie like you.
So if you don't take good care of it, I'll kick your ass!
Y-yes, ma'am!
Okay. I got this.
Turrets in all craft have been loaded.
West Gate Four is ready.
Prepare to launch.
Each Garde unit proceed in sequence.
Roger.
Tanikaze's Heigus engine output ready for takeoff in 20.
Launch!
That's...
Sidonia?
Four-unit clutch formation!
Wait, this is Tanikaze's first time.
Tanikaze, ready!
The mining squads will arrive at target destination in 30 seconds.
Tanikaze!
Stand it up straight.
Okay, I'm firing the cutter.
Roger.
Heavy damage to Yamano.
Damage to Tanikaze as well.
Wh-what happened?
We're reading a heavy concentration of Heigus particles within the asteroid.
It's a Gauna! A Gauna has emerged!
G-Gauna.
The first one in a hundred years.
