The love which ends with the first light
Streaming in on the dreamy morning
Starting tomorrow, we go our separate ways
So abruptly, we can't prepare our hearts
Was there something
We knew which could not wither away?
Cherry blossoms falling everywhere
Saying with your voice
Goodbye, fall in love
Cherry blossom, cherry blossom
Forget all your tears
Starting now, fall in love
Does the message reach you now?
It's finally begun.
Begun?
There must be a big commotion on the surface.
This is most likely an attack started because...
you people have arrived at the Vodara Shrine.
Attack? What for?
No doubt ordered by a man who doesn't want you sent to the other side of the Zone.
A young man named Dewey.
Then, what about Holland and the guys?
Relax. That man isn't going to be defeated so easily.
You know that?
It's just a hunch.
This tower...
using a portion of Lady Sakuya's powers, had a barrier wrapped around it.
However, now that we can hear the rumbles of the attacks down here...
It's proof that Lady Sakuya decided that the powers used...
to protect this tower will now be used for another purpose.
Another purpose?
Right now, Lady Sakuya is building up her powers.
...so that together we can send you two to the other side of the Zone.
To the true promised land.
The true...
promised land?
EPISODE 42 STARDANCER
Not looking good, Leader.
No way we can win if it's nine against two!
The soldier monks have stopped attacking, but now...
Matthieu, I have a favor to ask.
Wait a minute, Holland! What's up with that?!
Never mind, just do it! It's the only way we'll get through this!
Listen up, don't you dare do anything rash!
I'm counting on you!
Doggie, you heard all that, right?
Roger! Everyone, hold on tight!
Mama! Mama!
I'm glad I was able to meet you all.
Don't! Stop talking like we'll never see you again!
People always meet others very suddenly.
But those meetings are what changes people, what makes them move on.
The same can be said of farewells.
But you shouldn't be hesitant because of their suddenness.
Mr. Norb...
I will now create a porolocca with Lady Sakuya.
Porolocca?
I will momentarily reverse the barrier around the Great Wall.
Porolocca is the phenomenon that accompanies it.
Fly towards the center of it all!
Beyond it is the Zone which leads to the true promised land.
What about Sakuya? And what will happen to you, Mr. Norb?
Just go. Renton, Eureka...
Even if darkness spreads beyond it, where you two tread becomes the path.
Leader, are you sure about this?
Talho and Ken-Goh have been training him constantly. Believe in Doggie.
That's not what I mean. Can we really do this?
It's time. Launch!
I'm not responsible for this!
The attacks have succeeded?!
Yes! We're currently in phase 4 of our attacks,
but we've confirmed the detonation of every shot on the wall!
Launch an Orange into it at once!
B-But sir, three of our own ships are near the Vodara Shrine!
The shrine in that area used to be protected by a barrier.
If it's vanished, what does that mean?
They've succeeded in making contact?!
Send The End over there!
We need to send it through before them!
If not...
Aye, sir!
Even knowing you have no chance, you've still embarked on this, Holland?
We're finally alone again.
Lady Sakuya.
Impossible! You injected yourself?!
That's right. Because... I can't fight without it.
That's enough! What meaning is there if you have to...
inject this much medication into you?!
There's meaning.
After all, it's what Dewey wants.
What in the world is the true promised land?
I don't know. I failed, so don't ask me.
Mama!
However...
However?
However, there is something you two have that we lacked.
Mr. Norb was crying.
What they lacked... Is that you, Nirvash?
Where... is this?
Stand firm! Only cowards show their backs!
It's time!
Roger!
Where's the 606?
Not here yet!
It's here! Launch the 909!
Don't you die, Leader!
Of course I won't!
Eureka?!
Th-This is...
KUTE Th-This is...
A Kute Class has appeared!
Everyone is in danger!
There's no end to them!
Honey!
Are you all right?
Thanks, Matthieu.
Matthieu!
Dammit!
Dammit, there's no time!
Holland!
Sorry I'm late, you two.
What do we do, Leader? We're like rats in a trap!
Hold the line to the end.
Hold on here! We can't hold anything in this situation!
We'll hold it until Renton and the others...
Everyone, get out of here, please!
Renton?!
Sorry to worry you! We're all fine!
Hey, why are Maeter and the kids?!
Sorry.
Sorry...
Oh, well.
Holland... Mr. Norb told us to go.
What?
He said that he'd open up a Zone in the Great Wall just for us.
Where's Norb?!
With Miss Sakuya. He decided to stay underground.
It's all right.
I feel Sakuya's feelings. And Mr. Norb's feelings, too.
Let's go... Beyond the Zone!
Right!
This is the 909!
Talho, recover the 606 and 808!
As soon as the Zone opens in the Great Wall, we're going in!
Wait a minute! Go in?! Between us and the Great Wall is!
Lady Sakuya. I... Um...
Wait!
Lady Sakuya, is something wrong?
I suppose you're dissatisfied to be with someone like me, after all.
Or perhaps you still can't forgive me.
For my leaving you here back then...
Back then, if you hadn't called my name...
I'm sure I wouldn't be here right now.
Here, look at this.
My book.
40 years' worth of blank pages.
But, before that...
Sakuya...
You finally called out for me.
I've been waiting for that for all this time.
Let's begin. For the sake of those children.
And for our sake as well.
What's?
The "porolocca" that Mr. Norb mentioned.
Listen up, Renton.
I don't know where you'll be going from here on.
But if something happens... If you end up in a bind...
Use the thing stowed behind the subpilot's seat.
Holland, what are you talking about?!
It's something that you deserve to have more than me.
Holland, wait!
We don't have time! We're busting through that swarm of antibody Coralians!
Got that, Talho?!
Let's go, Doggie!
Roger!
Holland!
It's no good! At this rate, before we make it through, you'll all!
Renton!
Listen up. You two are the hope for our future!!
Talho...
What you're carrying on your backs isn't just for us.
It's not just for mankind.
It's the hope of every living thing on this planet!
The hope of everything?
Miss Talho!
We're all right! We'll make sure to stay alive...
until you guys come back. We'll all be waiting for you!
So, hurry up and go!
I...
Don't hesitate! Go!
No, Nirvash!
Take us back! Please, go back!
We're counting on you, Renton... Eureka...
Leader! One KLF is closing fast!
What?!
What's up with this! Are you going to run away?!
I won't let you get in the way!
What?! You're not my opponent!
What's this? You're pretty good.
Dammit! What an opponent!
Dammit!
Bye-bye, Mr. Ugly! It's your fault for getting in my way!
Holland!
Go back!
Go back, go back!
Renton, look!
So you're saying you want to run away from me?
Stuff like that really pisses me off!
Renton!
Let's go.
Let's go, Eureka. For everyone's sake!
What's up with that?!
Why can't I catch up?!
No, no, I won't allow it!
We confirm the Type Zero switched to supersonic flight...
and then entered the Zone.
The End's position is confirmed at point A-2527. Zone penetration...
Has failed?
Yes.
Oh, well. I have other plans set up.
Recover The End at once.
We're headed back.
Take care on your journey...
Renton, Eureka...
Mr. Norb.
I feel like I've left all sorts of stuff behind us.
But I'm not scared. As long as I'm with you, Renton.
Me, neither.
Hey, wake up!
Hey, Renton!
See, Mama?
That!
Renton!
I thought we entered the Zone!
Incredible... A huge tunnel.
Where...
Where are we?
TO BE CONTINUED
To be continued!
Trying to escape the same old thing
You set out, walking all alone
Thinking that if you just spread out the map clutched in your hand
You'd be sure to reach your destination
But you were mistaken
You thought you'd be stronger on your own
You discovered your own weakness and the path was hazy
But then the light fell on you and you remembered all their faces
So you kept getting up, moving forward, no matter how many times you fell
Because you knew inside that everyone has a place to call "home"
Always relying on those bonds every time
Hands in the air, with a yell that carries on in your heart
Always looking back to where you've been
Because there are some places that never change
No matter what adversities or fears you overcome
You advance down this unknown endless road
Always looking back to where you've been
Because there are some places that never change
No matter what adversities or fears you overcome
You advance down this unknown endless road
Always looking back to where you've been
The boys and girls have wandered into a new world.
They all try to step forward, in search of a place to go.
