Resolve
The target is the 830-meter-long Gauna pod!
We count 27 individual cores.
There has to be one host Gauna among them.
Finding and destroying it is our priority!
Also, there's low probability the host is in the tail segment.
Cut off the tail to reduce the amount of mass we have to deal with!
Analysis Result: No cores detected
It's a large target, but we already have experience taking out Gauna.
There's no need to be afraid.
Garde units are 1,000 kilometers from target.
Engage reverse thrusters.
36 Garde Clutch Formation
Affirmative. Commencing operation now.
Thrusters engaged. Fifteen seconds to contact.
All units, prepare to release clutch formation.
After we disperse, Kunato, your team will work to cut off that tail immediately.
Imada's team will back you up!
Copy!
The rest will target the front end, where we suspect the host is located.
Roger!
Release clutch formation!
Team, follow me!
Team, watch the tentacles, and each of you cover a section.
Place charges at the base of the tail!
Roger!
Take this!
Core separation confirmed!
I guess this won't end until we take out the host core.
Samari, your eight o'clock! Watch out!
Oh, no! The tail!
Heavy damage to units 115 and 013!
Kunato squadron, status on the tail separation? Heavy damage to units 442, 587! Pilot life signs lost!
All units have successfully latched onto position. Heavy damage to units 442, 587! Pilot life signs lost!
They're currently setting charges! Moderate damage to 378! Unable to continue fighting! Withdrawing!
Kunato squadron, you have to hurry! Moderate damage to 378! Unable to continue fighting! Withdrawing!
This is Kunato. I've just placed my third charge.
Team, give me your count!
Hoshijiro, three!
Honoka, two!
Tanikaze, four!
Kunato squad has successfully placed 12 charges.
Explosive Charges set
Good! Get those charges ready, and detonate!
Affirmative! Team, fall back!
Team, fire on my command.
The timing is crucial!
Roger!
Private Channel
Get ready.
Set charges.
Detonate.
Detonating!
Charges 08 through 12, detonation confirmed.
Simultaneous detonation failed!
Tanikaze?
Weren't we doing it together?
Tanikaze, what are you doing?
You didn't wait for Kunato's count!
This is Kunato.
The operation failed.
Awaiting instructions.
The Gauna's turned its attention to the tail.
Imada and Kunato, get your teams out of there at once!
Roger!
Gauna tail segment reacting to the explosion.
Charges 01 through 07 have been dislodged.
Imada's and Kunato's squads are withdrawing.
Reestablish formation 118.
One of the dislodged charges detonated!
It's no good! Help me!
What?
Units 052 and 219 were caught in the blast.
Abandon the tail.
Yes, Captain. All teams, fall back.
Gain some distance to regroup.
Affirmative! All units, fall back!
We'll regroup and reestablish our formation before the next attack!
Tanikaze, what are you doing?
Fall back. Are you listening, Tanikaze?
Wait, no. I didn't...
Tanikaze, come on!
Forget it, Hoshijiro! Don't go after him!
Tanikaze!
If he had separated the tail more quickly, you might have had a complete victory.
No, our failure to separate the tail was not solely Tanikaze's responsibility.
Nagate Tanikaze: Serious Condition Found Unconscious
I am equally responsible for not being able to manage my squad properly.
I tried to do everything I could,
Shizuka Hoshijiro: Killed in action
but it still resulted in losing a member of my own team.
Are you okay, Nagate?
Sorry.
Wow, this is awful.
Yeah...
I was expecting more from that pilot.
I guess the battle before was just a fluke.

Wait, no. I didn't...
Tanikaze, come on!
Forget it, Hoshijiro! Don't go after him!
Tanikaze!
Come on, open your eyes!
Are you listening? This is a direct order!
Tanikaze!
Just a little more.
Stop, Hoshijiro! Don't.
Get back!

Kunato...!
Why?!
Hoshijiro...
Hoshijiro's death is your responsibility.
Some are suggesting that Nagate Tanikaze's pilot license be suspended.
Public opinion is unfavorable as well.
I believe this is blowback from allowing him to pilot the Tsugumori,
which was piloted by the Sidonian hero.
Of course, he couldn't possibly deploy in his condition.
We don't need to be concerned about public opinion.
And he won't be suspended.
We'll send him out.
Understood.
No Answer- Nagate Tanikaze No Answer- Nagate Tanikaze No Answer- Nagate Tanikaze No Answer- Nagate Tanikaze
How is he? Any word?
Well...
I take it he didn't come out again?
Yes.
I feel that he's been coddled way too much.
I'll just have to do something about it.
Hoshijiro wouldn't have wanted this.
Ms. Hiyama.
The Gauna won't attack if we lay down our arms
Lay down our Kabizashi
Don't put our civilians in danger
If we disarm ourselves, the Gauna won't come!
Sidonia, throw down your arms at once!
With the large number of casualties in this most recent battle,
many anti-military activists have redoubled their efforts.
Anti-military activist demonstrations on the rise
The military leaders have announced significant personnel changes.

Nagate Tanikaze
Open this door already.
Nagate, are you listening to me?
I'm coming in!
It stinks in here.
And what's with all this dust?
I'm gonna tidy up.
Nagate!
Pull yourself together!
After all, you're a Garde pilot.
Garde pilot...
Nagate,
you want to become a Garde pilot when you grow up, don't you?
Then no matter how hard things get, you need to be ready to fight.
The Gauna won't wait for you to finish crying.
Nagate, are you okay?
It's going to take a little while for me to clean, so why don't you two go for a walk?
Oh, but the door...
Don't worry about that.
Go on. Get going.
Take care of him, okay?
Right.
Let's go, Nagate!
So, what are the anti-military protesters doing?
The demonstrations are getting progressively larger.
The desire to leave Sidonia is growing.
If operations continue at this rate,
the majority will believe that the Kabizashi will attract the Gauna.
So if we destroy the Kabizashis, the Gauna won't come, right?
According to them, it's the only legitimate plan that would ultimately allow safe navigation to the Lem star system.
Ridiculous.
Very well, then.
Those who wish to leave will be allowed to do so.
But the war won't stop.
We can't rebuild a home for ourselves as long as the Gauna exist.
Very well. I'll make the arrangements.
Call Yure.
Right.
You called for me?
Professor Yure, we will be performing the "Resurrection Ritual."
I understand.
Make the preparations.
Understood.
Nagate, you're hungry, aren't you?
What?
Hold on just a second.
I heard seven died in combat. Four of them were his fault.
I heard that too. That's unbelievable, right?
This is... I heard that too. That's unbelievable, right?
His first battle since becoming an official pilot. What a joke.
Well, they don't think some of them are going to make it.
Hey.
Isn't he the guy?
Yeah.
Here you go.
Since you're a cute lady, I threw in a drink on the house.
Really? That's great.
Except that I'm not actually a girl.
What?
Thanks!
What?
I can't stop eating.
Hoshijiro...
You war criminal!
How many pilots died because of you, huh?
You think you can just walk around like nothing happened?
We don't need pilots like you!
Are you okay, Nagate?
Y-yeah...
Oh, no. You're bleeding.
I'll be fine.
Let's go somewhere else.
Rogue Planet N68203L
The Gauna pod 488 originated from this rogue planet.
The Gauna core that got away was heading in that direction.
Yuhata Midorikawa, entering.
Please display rogue planet N68203L.
Yes, Probationary Commander Midorikawa.
We are currently 700,000 km from planet N68203L.

Displayed on the monitor is the planet the Gauna fled to. No Gauna detected.
There's a high probability that there are other Gauna taking refuge there.
We will launch a surprise attack while we have distance on them,
destroy the entire planet, and watch the Gauna burn.
Use an Interplanetary Missile.
A planet buster?
Is that not sufficient?
Yes.
Prepare the IPM. Right away!
Affirmative! Preparing the IPM.

Good!

Roger!
Why?
I didn't apply for the position!
You're suited perfectly for it.
More than any other I've ever seen.
I don't want it!
It's the Captain's order.
All I wanted was to be a Garde pilot, like my brother.
Midorikawa,
if you wish to fight the Gauna,
then that's all the more reason why the cockpit isn't where you belong. Do you understand?
IPM is 3,000 kilometers away from the planet!
Maintain observation until impact.
Five seconds until impact.
Tinne till innpact:
Three, two, one.
Impact!
Upper atmosphere has been penetrated. Currently descending through the mantle.
It has the power to destroy an entire planet, 5,000 km to planet core contact.

No, there's another one!
The gas is too thick.
Rush the visual analysis.
Midorikawa.
Form a suppression force and send them out.
Pick the members yourself.
Got it.
It's good.
I'm glad you get to finally eat.
What about your head?
Are you sure you're okay?
Yeah. I'm okay now.
Good.
I think we should head back soon.
I don't want Ms. Hiyama to worry about us.
Right.
But I am glad to see that you cheered up a little bit.
Yeah. Izana, thanks.
Deployment Order
You're being deployed? Why do they always have to deploy you?
Nagate?
I can pilot again.
Izana, I'm heading out.
Yeah.

You need to make up for lost time!
Roger!

Don't even think about trying to blame me.
I'm here to fight the Gauna.
And that's all.
That's right.
