Link up with Second Moon.
We'll use its engines to fire La Gramis's Digmazenon cannon again.
Make the preparations.
But with the battlefield in such chaos, our forces will be caught in—
For the sake of the plan, I'll make any sacrifice!
Do it.
Y-Yes, sir!
La Gramis, switch to firing mode!
La Gramis has begun transforming.
What's going on?
Master Zeheart, what are you...?
The creation of the Eden that Lord Ezelcant pictured...
I will accomplish it!
haruka na sora samayoeru hikari datte
Even among the lights wandering through the faraway sky
kono michi wo hashiritsuzukeru
I will run along my path through this age
aa sekai wa doushite konna ni mo
Oh, why is the world so full
futashika na yume wo utsushiteru no?
of vague and uncertain dreams?
sou kurayami no naka de mogaiteru
I know why; we struggle in darkness
kotoba naki hitomi ga sayonara tsugeta
You spoke no words, yet your eyes said goodbye
yabureta kumo no sukima ochiteyuku hoshitachi
Through the ripped clouds we saw planets die
tamerai wo keshisareta nara
If I left behind all my hesitation for good there,
haruka na sora samayoeru hikari datte
then even among the lights wandering through the faraway sky
ato ichibyou ippo saki ni mitsukedashite miseru kara
I would go, step by step and second by second to find you again
tsuki ga terasu tashika na omoi nara kitto
If the moonlight would witness the strength of my emotions,
ashita made te ga todoku kara
then I am sure the future would be within my reach
kono michi wo hashiritsuzukeru
I will run along my path through this age
Episode 48 Glimmer of Despair
Are you okay?
Yes.
Support our allies as we advance!
We're breaking...
through this sector!
Don't cry, Jonathan!
Do you want the commander's death to be in vain?
Let's break on through the Vagan lines!
Roger!
Engine output dropping!
What about the sub-engines?
We're already using them!
I know it's painful, Captain.
But for now...
Please maintain full combat speed, even if you have to shut down everything but life support!
Roger!
Mobile suit team, take care of any enemies that try to flank us!
Both sides are all jumbled together.
I don't want to see any friendly fire, understand?
Right!
What am I trying to do here?
Master Zeheart...
Daz?
Master Zeheart...
Everyone who fights beside you shares your desires.
Please follow the path you believe in.
I believed in your dream of Eden.
Dole...
That dream cannot be false.
Hey, what's wrong, Zeheart?
Desil!
You're the one who got me killed.
You wouldn't let something like this slow you down, right?
I... can't go back now.
The only path I have left...
is the path that leads to Eden.
Master Zeheart, what is it?
Fram, lure the Gundam into the Digmazenon cannon's line of fire.
I'll destroy it along with the Diva.
Together with the Gundam?
I'll stop their advances and crush the Federation's chances of victory.
That will decide this battle.
But, Master Zeheart...
I understand.
Leil! I'm going to lure the Gundam!
You take command, okay?
Fram!
Do you know what that order means?
If you follow it, you'll...
You should remember the names of soldiers who die in battle.
Master Zeheart, who was so kind....
Have you ever tried imagining it?
The Eden we're about to create?
Eden is everything to him.
Don't forget that you're my valuable subordinate.
When this fight ends, he'll become that kind Master Zeheart again.
I want to protect him... and his gentle heart.
Activity on enemy detection systems!
Enemy ship in our path!
Hard to starboard!
Evade!
Why're they trying so hard all of a sudden?
Deen... I'll stop the fighting.
I'm gonna stop it.
I'll never give up!
Now get into the cage!
The cage of death!
Gundam!
If it weren't for you...
We should use our power to end the war!
Shut up!
You don't know anything!
Go, bits!
You're just getting in Master Zeheart's way!
This is the end!
Kio, you okay?
Dad!
Out of the way, pirate!
Leave her to me!
Dad!
Fram!
Leil! If you come here, you'll...
I'm prepared to accept that.
Let's go, Leil.
For Eden!
What is this?
Something's coming.
Something terrible.
What is this?!
Get me Ocramud at once!
No response!
Calling again!
What are you planning, Zeheart?
They're going to use that beam cannon again.
But they can't fire that weapon again so soon, can they?
There must be a reason they're transforming it mid-battle.
Algreus.
Could the enemy fortress be recharging its beam cannon via Second Moon?
Based on the heat source data, it's not out of the question.
But if they fire it in this free-for-all situation...
No, it couldn't be!
They plan to destroy their own allies along with the Gundam and Diva!
Don't forget, the enemy are Vagan.
Then issue withdrawal orders at once!
No.
As long as the Diva is going forward, that's where they'll aim.
And so...
we'll use the Diva as a decoy!
Withdraw all other ships!
Very well. I'll give the order.
Along with their own comrades...
Zeheart, you wouldn't!
Captain! We're going to have the Diva crew abandon ship.
Abandon the Diva?
In this situation, the enemy's attacks—
You'll be killed otherwise.
I've already requested a rescue for the crew.
A rescue? In these conditions, who could...
All hands, prepare to abandon ship!
Move to hangar three immediately!
Flit Asuno, AGE-1 Glansa, heading out!
I won't let you get away!
Are you okay, Fram?
Kio, Asemu!
I'm evacuating the crew from the ship.
Draw the enemy's attention!
You're abandoning the Diva?
Obright! Jonathan!
Sorry we're late, Commander Asuno.
Are we just jumping out into space?!
The commander told us to wait on the deck, not in the lifeboats.
Captain!
Look at that!
Hurry up and get in here!
We're going on a pirate ship?
Looks like fun!
Hurry! We don't know how long we can fool their detection systems!
All hands, transfer to the pirate ship Baronoke!
It worked?
The Diva...
It's been a long time...
Farewell.
Our ship...
Everyone, grab onto the Dark Hound!
I'll use the Hyper Boost to get us out of the enemy line of fire!
Roger!
I won't let you go anywhere!
Leil!
Take this!
What?
Listen.
Stay here until the last minute, so the enemy flagship doesn't realize we're escaping.
Roger.
Got it, Grandpa!
No way...
I can't... not like... like this!
Leil!
Damn you!
Don't count me out!
This is for the Commander!
Damn it!
Jonathan!
It's time.
Everyone grab onto the Dark Hound!
Roger!
On my way!
Mr. Obright! Please hurry!
Just this one...!
I'll destroy you!
You're just small fry!
Struggling now won't make a difference!
Take this!
Preparing for Hyper Boost!
Ignition sequence activated!
Kio, when it ignites, we'll go to maximum output and act as supplementary boosters!
Right!
The Diva...
Mr. Obright!
Never mind me.
You guys go.
You can't! Mr. Obright!
You guys... must live!
Remi... I'm finally going to see you again.
I've kept you waiting...
Mr. Obright!
All three Gundams are now in range!
Okay.
Fram.
Fram!
Master Zeheart!
I'm sorry.
I know an apology doesn't make it forgivable.
But...
Master Zeheart, I...
I'll succeed with this plan, and repay the spirit of your brother Dole.
Forget about my brother.
I'm proud that I was able to fight for you.
Fram, I...
Master Zeheart... please, obtain Eden.
I promise.
I shall reach Eden!
Master Zeheart...
Fire!
Zeheart, you—
Five Federation warships have been sunk.
We did it.
Of course we did.
I've sacrificed even those who loved and adored me.
I'll surely reach it!
The Gundams!
Wh-What?!
There's no mistake!
It's the Gundams!
What am I doing?!
What have I...
Zeheart!
Worthless.
Is that all you...
A younger brother can't surpass his elder.
He couldn't handle it.
Pathetic!
Is that all you...
Worthless.
He couldn't handle it.
I know!
I'll defeat the Gundams no matter what!
I'll win this fight!
Commander! Master Zeheart's launched from the Fa Zard!
What?!
Master Zeheart...
Gundam!
Zeheart!
Asemu!
Zeheart!
Zeheart, what are you doing?!
You just sacrificed your own allies!
I have to do it!
I threw away my human feelings long ago!
What's the point of a cause that makes you throw away your humanity?
What do you know?!
Wasn't Eden a place where people could be truly human?
I've... I've sacrificed everything for Eden!
I have no regrets!
So you've finally caught up to me?
Impressive.
Zeheart!
Everything is slipping through my fingers.
Why... can't I grasp it?
There are things we can't grasp, because we're human.
You saved me many times when I was your enemy.
Before you were a warrior, you were a human being.
I wanted to make them come true...
Lord Ezelcant's ambitions...
Our dream.
Otherwise, I don't know... what I've been living for.
Zeheart!
The time I spent with you in that mobile suit club...
I was so content then.
You may have been jealous of me and my power.
But I was jealous of you, too.
I wanted to have children with the person I loved, and live like you!
Zeheart!
It's finished!
All right! Now we can win!
Wow! You're amazing, Zeheart!
This is all thanks to you, Zeheart.
Thanks to... me?
Yeah. We made it this far because of you.
Thanks, Zeheart.
Asemu...
Zeheart, I made it this far because of you!
Thank you... Asemu.
Zeheart...
Zeheart!
soba ni yorisotteru dake de
We just sat leaning against each other
sore de ii to omotteta kedo
and I felt it should just continue like that
itsuka ki ga tsuita n da
One day I realized
kimi ni sae mo yuzurenai mirai ni
that the future wouldn't show mercy, even to you
yume ga futari tsunaide
Dreams connected us
soshite yume ga futari wo ima toozaketa no
and dreams now keep us apart
wasurenai yo wasurenai yo hitotsu nokorazu
I will never, ever forget any of it,
kimi ga oshietekureta uta mo
not even the song you taught me
meguru kisetsu kurikaeshite itsuka namida ga
The seasons pass, and one day
tsuyosa ni kawatteku sono hi made kitto
the tears I already shed will be my strength
nakanai de aruiteku kono mama
Until that day, I will shed tears no more
Next Time
The long battle now comes to an end.
When it does, can three minds open the door to the future?
