Yoiraiki Festival
Yoiraiki Festival?
Yoiraiki's the local phrase for...
Uh... I guess "Let's all work hard together."
No one actually says it, though.
Robotics Club, yoiraiki!
Come on guys! Show me spirit!
We're celebrating the future completion of GunPro-1!
We should all have fun together!
I'm going home as soon as I can.
What about Yashio and Furugoori then?
Kai went to get Frau Bow, but they're still not back.
They should be here enjoying the festival!
Behind the words passing by
The key of my closed heart is hidden
If setting your flag
Could save your smile
The late summer breeze
Turns into a midday squall
As we sync our wavelengths
I'm such a bad romantic
Can't even find
Any words with an edge
Still I aim for the blue sky
We can become one
As our dreams and confused tears
Draw us ever closer to the truth
That becomes our beloved
Magical keyword
I'm so sleepy in your warm embrace...
Blood, sweat, and tears
Or should I be on top today?
So wild I'll break, 'kay?
It's here!
Uh, you remember that I'm here to invite you to the festival?
Not to hunt cheaters.
Who cares about festivals?
How about cleaning the place up a little?
A loli maid, do want. Rosetta would do.
I've been wondering for a while, but who's this Rosetta?
Hawaugh!
Greetings, Yashio. I'm Yuuki Rosetta.
Oh!
You play Kill-Ballad yet you ignore the name of G-G-Gunvarrel's main heroine?
You s-s-secondary!
I'm Genki! Dotou Genki!
I pilot Gunvarrel!
Cheers, mate!
You made these bots?
Doyaa!
Do they start talking by themselves?
No. That'd be damn annoying too.
True... I should tell Airi that.
Airi?
Did you call me?
I told you not to show up...
Is that a bot? Looks totally real!
Thank you very much!
Switched to Sister Centipede mode.
Sister Centipede, explain who you are to this creep.
As you wish.
Launch Iru-O.
Hurry up already. Aki's waiting for us.
Girl characters are meant to be waifus,
but guys aren't waifus 'cause they're too bro-tier.
You get that?
Erlie x Genki, right? Yes, I understand.
There's no such thing as a woman who hates gays.
You quoted her! It's happening!
You seriously understand each other?
Number 2 HANASONO's here! Matching successful!
Coulds you pleash let goes of my hand?!
You mustn't, Jun! He'll leave if you let go!
Roger!
Let me leave!
There's a shooting gallery over there!
But I don't really like that...
Look! Gunbams!
No! Too expensive.
And you're not meant to turn into a robot yourself.
You should build one.
Delicious!
When do the fireworks start?
You can't eat hot food?
Does that make me a bad person?
Grr!
Heads down!
What's wrong?
Mr. Nagafukada and... Tennouji from JAXA?
Tennouji!
They shouldn't even know each other!
Could she be trying to entwine Mitchie now that we refused?
Entwine?
Ugh! Is that JAXA lady some kind of monster?!
And their hands slowly reach for each other... No!
Ah Akiho, you were around here too?
Little one, you're that hungry?
But you mustn't take others' food!
They could even call the police on you you know!
Mitchie, you stink of booze.
How come you're together, by the way?
I dropped by the school for formalities, and he was kind enough to show me around at the festival.
It's business entertainment for the Robotics Club's sake!
I was right to intervene.
How's the robot coming?
Ah, right! We're joining the upper and lower halves tomorrow.
So it's nearing completion?
Exactly! The fruit of the Robotics Club's nine years of blood, sweat, and tears!
The time for GunPro-1 to set foot on land has come!
Yep, I lost.
How's it coming, Kona?
Facedesk! Facedesk!
My analysis tools don't catch anything either.
If he caused artificial lag,
of course he wins.
cheating o9k.
But how does he do it?
A virus?
An emp?
I tried patching the tools, no luck.
I'm out of ideas.
I checked the logs too, but there's nothing suspicious at all.
sorry, but gtg now
I asked my Tokyo friends to help online too, but nothing.
So it didn't work again?
The fireworks are so pretty!
Kai, come to the Sun Village already! The fireworks will be over!
Gotta watch Puella Magi Elin Strike Homerun! Elin's an eternal loli! 2D forever!
Senomiya Akiho
Kai, come to the Sun Village already! The fireworks will be over!
The fireworks started too.
The anime's director was Kogoori Minami.
My mom.
Yashio...
Do you remember what I told you before?
Yeah.
Please tell me everything relevant. Anything weird or off on the island.
Off?
Have you ever heard of the Kimijima reports?
"Dear Sister,
"I told you this in my previous mail I think, but we're finishing the GunPro-1 tomorrow.
"The dreams you started are finally taking form.
"I wanted you to see it...
"But I guess you're busy with your job.
"I'll write you again tomorrow!"
Move it now!
Jun in the Robotics Club? What a surprise.
Slowly! Slowly!
How can Frau and Subaru not come to such an important occasion?
You too, Kai! You ended up not coming yesterday either!
Hey! Club kids!
Aki, he's calling you.
On my way!
All right! All right!
GunPro-1 has arrived!
It's huge!
Now that's what I call an impact.
Hey, Aki...
I'd be so happy if you fulfilled my dream.
See you!
Don't forget that tomorrow's activation test starts at 10am!
I know, I know.
Ah, it's just Mom...
I'm already in front of the house!
You haven't gotten any messages from Misa?
Yeah...
I hoped she'd say something if I sent her pictures of the GunPro-1...
Say, Kai...
Did she really want us to build the GunPro-1?
Does it matter at all?
She asked you to fulfill her dream for her.
But when she left for Tokyo, she told me...
Sis!
I'll join the Robotics Club and fulfill your dream!
Sis?
Whatever you do, it'll always be ordinary.
I told you before.
She was just trying to motivate you with tough love.
I wonder...
Outgoing mail
It's done!
Sis
We're completing the GunPro-1!
Sis
Where's Frau Bow?
Kai
I'm off!
Sis
Festival tomorrow!
Kai
Re: Meeting tomorrow
Jun
She's not mailing you 'cause she must be frustrated you completed it.
But...
So are you gonna have that face on tomorrow?
After you finally completed the GunPro-1?
That's right... Worrying about it'll solve nothing.
What's this?
Thanks a lot!
It's so big!
Is it really gonna move?
Looks like my flyers had an impact!

Look!
So many people...
We could just call it off. It's the first test afte--
Genki blast! Gunvarrel!
Yay!
The time we can restore the Robotics Club's glory has come!
I'm fired up! So damn fired up!
Great!
Hello, everyone!
I'm the club president of Central Tanegashima High's Robotics Club, Senomiya Akiho!
Our club's been working on this giant robot walking on the legs of love and justice for nine years!
Now, the pilot will get in, and we'll try to activate it!
And...
It was designed by my sister, Senomiya Misaki!
Have a nice time!
Wait wait wait!
What are you doing?
Getting in the cockpit.
I can't let you.
Then who will?
Ugh, it aches...
Ah...
Okay, I get it.
You got candy?
Kai!
Damn, is this thing a sauna?!
Answer the phone.
Kai, how is it?
Damn hot.
We should've at least installed a fan.
I'll consider it.
That isn't really the problem.
Check the console, okay?
Turn
Walk
That's such a challenge!
Can we get started?
I'm stewing in my own sweat.
Then on my signal, turn the engine on!
Watch, everyone! The GunPro-1 wakes up!
Countdown!
Three!
Two!
One!
GunPro-1, activate!
And now Kai, the first step!
Huh? What?
Walk to my count!
Walk? Damn! It's so loud!
Countdown! 3! 2! 1!
Launch!
Aki, what's going on?!
It's okay!
It sure doesn't sound like that!
Is it really walking?
So slow!
This won't do.
Mitchie, don't say that!
It's walking! Even if it's slow, it's walking!
It's amazing! It's an amazing thing!
Nine years ago, yeah.
Times change. Human history advances.
Dad, I'm bored!
Is it just gonna stand there?
Is it broken or something?
That's the Robotics Club for you.
Eh?!
Number One?
It stopped?
Hey, is that it?
What happened?
I don't know.
The engine stopped suddenly.
Start it up again!
I can't! It won't start up.
What?!
It's because it was a junk diesel engine.
It was old.
It's over.
Akiho...
Kai, good work.
Thank you. You can get off.
My sister could've done it bettter...
My sister could've...
So cold!
What do we do now?
I want her to acknowledge it.
Or rather...
I... I want to catch up to her!
GunPro-1 looks so sad...
I see. They completed it.
It's quite different from my plans though.
What's that?
Just a pile of junk.
The blinding light of childhood memories
Turns the scenery of my dream
Into monochrome as it lies forgotten
And vanishes from my eyes
But you've always been
Looking straight at the future
And you paid the price in tears
So we turn our hesitation
Into strength by the power
Of our connected hearts
Feel it! These overflowing emotions
For that someone in the sunset
I'll use what little courage I have
And overcome the rage of the wind
Because I want to protect you
Tune in next week too!
