Sprocket Calendar January 12th, 1016 22:38 Kyoto Grid
Quick!
We have to do everything we can to stop the purge!
Kyoto Core Tower Floor 24
Quick!
We need to do everything we can to get our hands on AnchoR!
You are so...
Oh? That's it?
Even the time to get mad is too precious.
Hey, did you notice?
Not a single soul until now.
Do you think the army took them?
That's fine, too, as long as they are safe.
Huh? There are people behind that gate.
Hey, guys.
You guys!
Oh! I'm so relieved that you are safe.
Why haven't you evacuated?!
Meister Marie, nobody here is so unreliable as to leave unfinished work behind.
Jeez, you guys.
Another anomaly.
Do you have any leads?
Of course! I have the ultimate ace up my sleeve!
Naoto!
Beautiful!
This is too much!
I've never seen anything like this!
Who might that be?
Naoto!
Episode 4 Imaginary Gear
Oh, this is so beautiful.
Who is the person who designed something this pretty, this attractive,
this exciting, and built it to perfection?
Thank you so much!
That idiot.
Master Naoto, I believe that is not what you should be concerned with at the moment.
Yeah, tell him!
I simply cannot ignore that you are giving this stinky,
mold-covered antique more praise than me.
That's not the issue, either!
After you looked at my entire body,
you told me that I was pretty, that I was the best.
Were those words just a lie, then?
No, that's not it! You are the best, RyuZU!
But you know, these gears here are also amazing.
So... you know?
I see. As long as there are gears, you don't care who it is.
Um, listen.
Your gears are really the best.
I see, you're telling me to strip.
I did not say that! I did not say that!
No, don't do it RyuZU!
Cut it out already, you idiot!
What was that for?!
What did you think you were coming all the way here for?!
I guess even a meister only—
I see,
that boy got that Initial Y-Series unit.
Well, let me introduce him to you properly.
This is Naoto Miura.
I'm sure you all have doubts, but we need his help to repair the Core Tower.
Um, I'm getting all these unfriendly looks.
As you suspect, he is an idiot.
Hey.
But he's the idiot we need right now.
He's the only hope we have.
Three hours and 57 minutes until the purge.
No matter if this boy is the real deal or not, let's follow Meister Marie's lead.
Understood.
Thank you!
Naoto!
I know.
I will hold that.
Thanks.
That's one.
Two.
Three.
What in the world is he doing?
Quiet.
Good work, Master Naoto.
Uh-huh. Thanks.
What did you find?
Eighteen places.
That's not very many.
There are 4047 irregularities, but those are the only ones
that are connected to the gravity anomaly.
That sounds doable, then.
Tell me where they are.
I can't read that.
Just give me a rough idea.
I'll figure out the rest.
Then, let's begin.
Meister Marie, please direct us.
Meister Konrad, please take care of the 12 problems up to level 3 with your team.
Aye!
Since we don't have time, please skip the inspection and do the repairs directly.
Halter, bring materials and follow me.
Roger.
There really is a problem here!
How did a boy who can't even read blueprints find this?
Okay, done here!
Here, too.
And here!
I'm done!
Done here, as well!
I see.
The last place is in a place where a human can't get to. RyuZU, please go.
The only one who can give me orders is Master Naoto.
Please, RyuZU.
Understood.
From your location, jump up 52.3 meters.
Rotate 47.5 degrees horizontally, then jump another 14.25 meters.
After you arrive, there will be a loose gear with a diameter of 0.7 micrometers.
This must be it.
Please fix that without stopping it from turning.
I hate to admit it, but you're the only one who can do this.
It's done.
Am I considered material?
Very delicate material.
I'll handle you with care.
Marie, it's that movement up there.
The fourth from the right edge, correct?
Yeah, but we need to find a platform first.
We don't have time for that.
Hey, what are you...
Just watch.
Amazing.
All right, let's move to the next one.
Isn't our princess amazing?
Yeah.
In that little head of hers, she has every single defect and repair method stored.
She can consult that immense amount of data
and figure out the best course of action in an instant.
That is Marie Bell Breguet.
So she's a genius, just like you.
That was the last one.
You're too much.
The Brown's constant of Floor 24's pressure control block is normal.
The dissonance is gone.
Observation team leader!
All checks are green.
That means.
I can't believe it.
All repairs were successful!
This is unreal. We really did it!
Are we dreaming?
Damn, we did it!
Sorry for doubting you.
This is all thanks to you!
Huh? But I didn't do anything.
What are you talking about?
If we don't know what's broken, we can't fix it.
You managed to do what we were unable to do for days.
So I was useful?
You saved the lives of 20 million people.
Uh...
Um...
Okay.
What the?
What's going on?
What the heck is happening?!
What is this?!
The purge.
The purge has begun!
You've got to be shitting me!
Kyoto "Military" Headquarters
Coupling shaft disengaged.
Shaft number 52939, confirmed as disengaged.
Why are you wasting time?
Hurry up and commence the purge!
We can't leave any evidence behind.
Hurry up already!
The purge is going to use the gravity control system
to drop this city into the core of the planet.
What can we do to stop this purge?
Do we get access to the system directly?
We don't have enough time for that.
Do we inform the public of the military's actions?
That would just add confusion to the situation.
Isn't there any other way?
Something? Something else?
Is something the matter?
Oh, no.
It's nothing.
I see.
Another hour. No, even 30 minutes would do.
If we could prevent the city from falling...
Imaginary Gear!
No!
Naoto.
In order to prevent the city from falling, we need to generate anti-gravity.
The only way of doing that is to use
the Imaginary Gear, which can reverse the energy output.
Are you telling me to sacrifice RyuZU for that?!
I just want to borrow her temporarily!
You can't guarantee that she will be safe!
Trust me! I will repair her!
No! No way!
Master, I swear that I will honor my title of "One who follows" and
keep you safe, no matter how dangerous the situation may be.
However, foolish Master Naoto,
you're not so foolish as to smile even after sacrificing someone, are you?
Listen to my entire plan!
There is no need for RyuZU to be sacrificed!
Master Naoto, I am certain you can do it.
Marie, please tell me.
What should I do?
Purge, final sequence.
Counting down for gravity energy generator.
Commence countdown.
Five...
Four...
Three...
Two...
One...
Purge commencing.
Purge confirmed.
The city is falling, 50, 100, 150...
What's the matter?
The gravity... has been reversed.
Someone is pushing the city back up!
How?!
Hurry! We need to reconfigure the system!
Right!
Kyoto Core Tower Floor 24 Gravity Control System
What do you think?
Thirty minutes.
Longer than that and the Imaginary Gear won't last.
RyuZU.
Don't worry. Thirty minutes is more than enough.
What is it?
A lot of sounds are approaching.
I've heard these before.
Kill them!
Kill anyone who gets in the way of the purge!
Seriously, now?!
I just need to buy you some time, right?
That kind of job is more suited for me.
Mind if I join in?
Are you sure?
This seems more fun.
Hah, for sure.
This is good. There's no need to aim.
Quite true.
Then let's ring the bell, shall we?
Whoa, now.
Don't worry, I will repair it later.
You've got guts!
Naoto. Naoto. Naoto!
You need to focus, Naoto.
I know. I know, but...
We're going to save everything, right?
Oh, yeah.
That's right.
Next?
Rotate the fifth cylinder 34 degrees to the right.
We're losing more and more control.
My plan!
Marie, aren't you done yet?!
Just a little!
She's at her limit.
Marie!
Meister Marie! We're in!
RyuZU!
Naoto!
It seems I must sleep again.
It can't be helped.
Even after 1,800,926 hours,
humanity's stupidity remained on par with that of fleas.
All I need to do is sleep again.
Nothing has changed.
Nothing.
And yet...
Why is it...
Why does my heart feel so tight?
Huh?
Ah, I see.
There is one thing that is different now.
Master Naoto, your face is already dull at best.
If you do that, nobody can look at you.
I believed.
No, perhaps I should say it was inevitable.
Just like there are no elements of coincidence in the 4,207,600,008,643 gears
that I am comprised of.
That is why I believe I exist.
Have you heard these words before?
"Gears of Fate"
In this world comprised entirely of gears,
I'm sure those gears, too, will also begin to...
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock...
The Core Tower was repaired and the Kyoto Grid was saved.
It seemed as if this planet had regained a moment of tranquility.
But that was only momentary, as in the deepest floors in the vicinity,
another Gear of Fate was beginning to creak and move.
Next time "Trishula."
Beginning imaginary output through the
Episode 5 Trishula "One who annihilates"
Chrono Hook - Perpetual Gear; materializing now.
