Takamura's Flight 2, exterminate the Destroyer Class!
Flight 2, roger!
Flight 1 under my command, cover Flight 3!
Flight 3, concentrate fire on individual Grappler Class,
and prioritize any Laser Class you see!
Flight 3, roger!
Here they come...
The Imperial Capital Burns - Part 2
Here they come...
Draw them in as close as possible!
Keep TSF altitude below 100m!
Roger!
That's...
BETA?!
Move it!
Shift formation to intercept! Arrowhead 1!
All units, fire at will!
Let's go!
Roger!
Remember your training, Shimako!
How do you fight a Destroyer Class?
I-I know!
Watch out for lasers!
You're too high!
Shimako?
Don't falter!
If you get up close to one of them, the lasers won't fire!
Where's our target Laser Class?
Forward-right, 1200. Right in front of the relay station.
I see them!
Lock...
They're still coming?
Low ammunition warning.
Aki! Are you alright?
Yui...
Start to focus fire on a single target!
Don't let the enemy concentrate on Flight 3!
Roger!
I did it!
I did it, Yui!
I survived the 8 minutes of death! Now I'm...
Aki?
I'm not going to let you fire!
Hit.
Hit! One more at the rocks to your left!
More?
What's going on? It was supposed to be a single group!
Command post, respond!
These trainees won't hold them off...
What on earth are the regular soldiers doing?
Command post, respond!
Arashiyama Supply Base - Fallen
Command post?
Flight 3 will resupply first, then the others!
All other flights, cover them!
C-Captain!
We'll never let them into Kyoto!
Yawata Defense Line - Broken
These losses exceed our original predictions...
What's the American army doing?
They're launching the TSFs carried aboard the Theodore Roosevelt in Lake Biwa Canal,
American Navy F-14 Tomcat
and continuing to provide support.
What a strong sense of duty.
But there won't be enough of them.
The Guard may be forced to make a hard call.
A hard call?
Yui... Don't die.
Biwa Lake
Owari, Flagship of the Imperial Navy's 2nd Fleet
Admiral! Please confirm the operation with HQ one more time!
Prepare the main battery!
Admiral?
I said prepare the main battery!
Prepare the main battery!
We're surrounded!
There's too many of them!
I'm out of ammo!
Last one!
120mm, 0!
36mm, 500!
36mm, 1 clip!
Remaining ammo, 450!
There's no more point in holding this position...
All flights, listen up!
Withdraw from this battlefield at once!
Fall back to Line 8!
Izumi! Fall back!
Izumi!
No!
I can't run away!
Revenge! I will get my revenge here!
You!
Pilot officer Noto!
Hurry, the enemy is massing together!
Laser Warning
More Laser Class?
Don't worry! So long as you don't fly high-
Squadron Commander?
At this altitude?
They've widened the firing angle of their lasers!
What do we do?
It's 120 seconds to a ridge that'll provide cover!
Do something, Yui!
Takamura! Take command!
At this rate, we're all goners!
Alright.
Maintain heading and set engine output to maximum!
Fly as low as possible!
Anti-laser smoke!
Can we make it?
It's no use!
Don't give up!
90 seconds to the ridge!
Low. Low. Like you're stuck to the ground.
We're done for!
Only 60 seconds!
What?
Firing... from a ship's guns?
I share your regret, Admiral.
A soldier carries out the mission he is given.
I'll bear the full responsibility for this.
Our 1200 year old Imperial Capital... Japan is done for...
This is Arashiyama Flight 2,
somebody please respond.
We are cut off and isolated on line 3.
Everyone is going to be eaten...
Orders, please.
Eaten?
You saw it in lecture, didn't you?
The BETA eat people!
They'll eat us too!
Izumi! Get it together!
We've all survived past the 8 minutes of death!
So what is the next thing we should be doing?
I want revenge...
For him!
For everyone!
You can have it.
Live on in their stead, and fight the BETA.
Yes...
A signal on the motion sensor!
There's nothing here. Is the sensor...
Oh no!
It's too close!
Izumi, shoot!
Izumi.
I-It wasn't me!
A Type-94... Mk. 1-C?
Now that you've survived the 8 minutes of death, are you feeling a bit more like soldiers?
Instructor!
Call me Captain out here.
Pardon me, Captain!
I picked up your call sign when I made my retreat.
Now... I'll cover you as you retreat.
You all head for Kyoto station on Line 8.
That's the rally point.
If all goes well, you should be able to resupply there.
But...
Are you disobeying an order from your superior?
Go!
Become a true soldier by the next time we meet...
Command post,
this is Arashiyama Flight 2, requesting permission to approach from the west.
It's Kyoto station!
Watch your surroundings, don't let your guard down!
A Fort Class?
Look out!
Thanks for lasting as long as you did.
Yamashiro-san, Izumi.
If you can hear me, respond.
Izumi?
Soldier Class...
Takamura-san...
Yamashiro-san? Where are you?
Yamashiro-san? Are you alright?
Takamura-san... please...
Yamashiro-san...
...ease...
Please...
Please!
Yamashiro-san?
Please...
shoot...
me...
Hurry!
Please...
Shoot me!
Before these things eat me!
Yui!
I can't... I...
A Takemikazuchi?
The day I woke up...
That was the day Kyoto fell, overrun by the BETA.
Someone had said that this world was going to end...
When was it?
When did the living stop counting the dead?
Is this world truly walking the path to extinction?
Where did you go, Takamura-san?
You're in no condition to be walking around!
I'm begging you, please get some rest!
No, it's not.
Are you alright, Takamura-san? Does it hurt anywhere?
Three years later
That day, I carved my rejection of extinction in my heart,
along with my vow that I would never cry again.
You should be careful.
I heard that he was the Raptor's test pilot.
Doesn't matter.
I'll have him go through the Argos Flight's baptism.
What's a top elite from the American army doing out here?
