The melody you hum lets you remember
In memories, everything just shines
You gotta remember
Even now, hold on to those fragments of dreams
Just like what you used to have
The heart of a boy that sets the light free
Written in the column of "future dreams"
How many years have passed since that was me?
Between reality and ideals, I waver
The fires of my passion growing fainter
Hold on! Just, just hold on a second!
The battle's just beginning, so get it together!
The minute you give up, it's game over
Shall we take what is and make what we want it to be?
Do you remember?
You used to give your all for the faintest hope
You were living your life for tomorrow
Sure you haven't lost that feeling somewhere?
There's no time limit on being young
You don't think age really matters to a questing heart
It's true, don't you think?
We wanna make the dream come true!
That's to say...
Let it bloom! Let it bloom, let it bloom!
Let the flower of passion bloom!
Let it bloom! Let it bloom, let it bloom!
The melody you hum lets you remember
In memories, everything just shines
You gotta remember
Even now, hold on to those fragments of dreams
Just like what you used to have
The heart of a boy that sets the light free
How long has it been since I left Charles' place?
I kept walking for the sake of my promise.
To see Eureka.
But now...
Now, even walking was impossible.
And I was starting to lose sight...
of the reason I kept walking on.
Sis... I think I might be...
EPISODE 25 WORLD'S END GARDEN
Nirvash...
Are you lonely when nobody is aboard?
Do you feel a gaping hole right here?
Please... Say something.
Have you come to?
Surprised?
You'd passed out, so I brought you here.
Well, you surprised me, too.
I mean, there was a person collapsed there, of all places!
I thought this was an area that nobody would bother to come to.
At first, I thought it was something like an optical illusion...
or a ghost that the trapars were showing me.
The person who saved me seemed very kind,
but he was very talkative.
Was I being a little talkative?
William B. Baxter.
Call me Will.
And don't ask me what the "B" stands for.
It's an embarrassing name my dad picked when he was drunk.
Oh, I...
Oh, sorry! No, don't force yourself.
It's my fault.
Oh, shoot, I forgot! You're probably thirsty and hungry!
Sorry about that!
I'll bring you some soup right away.
Drink slowly. It's tough on you if you cough too much.
It was only a spoonful of soup, but that spoonful was more delicious...
than anything else I've ever eaten in my life.
Do you like how it tastes?
Well, I'm sure that you're hungry enough...
to eat a whole horse in one bite, but don't force yourself.
You were starting to show signs of severe dehydration.
So, for now, bear with me and eat just the soup.
Thank you so much.
No, I should be thanking you.
I'm happy that you came here.
Because I didn't have anyone to talk to, aside from Martha.
Oh, I haven't introduced you yet.
This is my wife, Martha.
Desperation disease...
Martha, this is, um...
Renton. I'm Renton Thurston.
Renton.
Martha, it's our first guest in quite a while. Aren't you happy?
Martha, you're embarrassing me in front of our guest!
I understand that you're hungry, but Renton hasn't finished his meal yet.
I have to entertain him.
Martha, be reasonable...
Oh, I'll be just fine.
No, I can't just leave you.
I'm all right by myself now. I can handle soup.
Sorry about that.
It's tough having a very demanding woman as your wife.
I'm kidding! Don't be so mad at me.
I'll give you some soup now.
I'm really sorry about this.
No problem.
It's pumpkin soup, your favorite.
Come now, you have bad table manners.
Well, table manners mean nothing in a rundown house like this!
The State Army's blocked this line as well. Is something going on today?
My entire body still ached,
but after getting some sleep, I was able to move a little bit.
Two beds.
Two cups.
Two plates.
Two chairs.
It was a house that had two of everything.
She's not breathing!
Is everyone who has the desperation disease like this?
Oh!
Be careful!
I planted potatoes there!
And carrots over there!
And there... I forgot what I planted there.
Anyway, be careful not to step on the crops.
I have no idea where anything is planted!
You can see my footsteps, right?
Can't you follow them here?
I can't even see those!
Oh, well, then!
You okay getting up so soon?
Yes, Mr. William.
I told you to call me Will, right?
Will, thank you so much for saving me.
You don't need to thank me.
Besides, if you're going thank anyone, thank Martha.
She was the one who told me you'd collapsed where you were.
How did she...
Well, we should eat soon.
U-Um, Will?
Um, what were you doing over there?
I was pulling out the pile bunkers.
H-How? They're all so huge!
Oh, it's nothing.
You just cast a little hocus-pocus spell.
Pulling them out causes something serious, doesn't it?
Isn't this area stable because...
so many of them are stuck into the ground?
No. It's stable because I pulled them out.
What was that just now?
See? It doesn't even shake one bit over here.
Wh-Why?
I mean, when you pull them out, it causes tectonic shifts,
which causes a catastrophe that can...
Yeah! It can swallow up an entire tower, right?
Look at the tree over there.
What do you think happens when the wind blows?
What would happen if the wind blew?
It would sway, of course.
And if a stronger wind blew?
And then a wind that was even stronger than that?
It would sway more and more, and finally fall down.
You understand it well.
It's the same thing as that.
If you fight the force of the land with force, someday you'll fall.
Even the towers that are stable now thanks to the pile bunkers...
can't withstand the force of the land.
That's true.
So, when a wind strong enough to knock over that big tree blows,
what do you think happens to the grass?
The grass will probably get knocked over, too.
That's right. It'll get knocked over.
But it'll all rise again after a few days.
This land is like this grass.
Take a deep breath.
A deep breath. You've never done that before?
Of course I have!
Then try it!
The wind I breathed in was sweet, full of the smell of the grass.
See?
The wind teaches you more things...
than all the words I can line up for you.
But, be careful.
Each breath you take brings you one step closer to death.
Renton... People shouldn't use up any more energy...
than what the sun shines down upon us.
When you try to use up more than that,
you end up having to dig for scubs to drain energy from,
or having to build towers.
You don't have to do that.
People can survive on what little land they are given to them.
But you have times when the crops don't grow, right?
There are. But it's not so bad that you'd die of hunger.
This land gives us permission to live on.
A beautiful woman like a fox and an old guy like a raccoon...
It can't be Ray and Charles, can it?
Come on, Holland!
Adroc is calling for you.
The State Army has blocked this line, too?
If this line and this one here are both blocked, then...
Shit!
This is no time to find Renton!
It was hard for me to watch, and I was just an observer.
Will...
What?
I hate to say it, but Martha suffers from the desperation disease.
No.
But...
Do you know why people call it the desperation disease?
It's because the people around the patients,
not the patients themselves, who fall into despair.
But I haven't fallen into despair.
So, this is not the desperation disease.
That... That's just a play on words, isn't it?
Renton.
I made a promise to Martha.
A promise to show her the place where I was born.
I'd told her to throw the thing away,
but she was an engineer and couldn't bring herself to do it.
I wanted to show you.
How she looked when she walked.
It was truly beautiful.
But...
When we arrived, my birthplace was nothing but a wasteland.
Martha was captivated by the land.
And so, I built a house here.
I cultivated the land just like Martha told me to, planted flowers,
and started to live an everyday life. That's all there is to it.
Isn't it tough for you?
Tough? Why do you think so?
We love each other.
Enough to make the angels envy us.
Do you have someone?
Someone you want to be with, even if the world came to an end.
Do you have someone?
I do.
I see. That's a good thing.
I have to go.
You should. You have a promise to fulfill as well, right?
Yes.
Is Gearnus close to here?
Yes, it's only a little bit further, so hang in there.
But she won't necessarily be waiting for you there.
Will you still go?
Yes!
Yeah. He's a good, straightforward boy.
Eureka, wait for me.
Renton...
A bulletin from the State Army.
They say the hounds are in place, and that it's time to corner the fox.
We're doing it?
Yeah. I made a promise to Renton.
I love that cruel streak you have.
I'm going to go back to the Gekko!
I'm going to see Eureka!
TO BE CONTINUED
To be continued!
I've really fallen in love with someone
I was scared of getting hurt
And even though I can't do anything on my own
All I did was talk tough
And even though I pretended not to see
The weakness deep inside my heart
Despite all that,
I found something big enough
To blow me away! You are my sunshine!
Fly away! Fly away! As long as there's the two of us
Fly away! Fly away! There's nothing to fear
Fly away! Fly away! It doesn't matter if you fail
Go another place. Take it easy.
Fly away! Fly away! Let's fly into the sky
Fly away! Fly away! Don't hesitate anymore
Fly away! Fly away! Because you're here for me
Take my chance. Believe in myself.
Take it easy
The unavoidable battle of those who cannot accept each other.
The hearts of the boy and the girl seeking one another...
create a rainbow-colored miracle.
