Zone of the Enders
What do you want? You show me!
A numbing kind of touchdown!
Don't! You can't beat me!
Even God, I don't know!
About tomorrow, no problem, this hot pulsing is burning blood
Oh! Let's go, fearsome things are
No way! Get off my way!
Know where we are going?
Zone of the Enders
Danger! Craving for the danger! Obstructing everything
Give me! Give me more danger! Just break through it
Times are so bad my head spins, but open the way with love and anger!
What's she doing?
Well, it just started firing at me all the sudden, and so. . .
The defense systems are still live!
Can you do something about it?
It's a system from fifty years ago. Somehow. . .
You did it, Leon!
Total Recall
It's so big!
Looks like it could dock a large-scale ship easily, doesn't it?
They probably had that in mind when they built it.
Dad, go farther in just like that. There should be a dock for repairs.
And it's securely airtight. We can take our time with them.
That's good.
After using the catapult became the norm for space traffic,
there was a faction of the army that opposed space compression navigation.
They said they couldn't put their faith in a way
that used something as poorly understood as Metatron.
So for that one in ten thousand chance,
they left this base so they could use it at anytime.
Probably something like that.
That's okay. It's an old model, but it's still more than useable.
Then I'll leave this to you.
Missy, help him, please.
Yes!
Can you eat food from fifty years ago?
The things left in places like this
have a "best by" date of at least a hundred years.
Wow. . .
Load the things we need. Don't forget to refuel.
Oh? Yeah.
Clothes and stuff are easy to forget, so. . .
Got it.
Papa?
I'll go take a look at the control room.
Oh, make sure you don't forget underwear.
I know already!
I can't accept that!
Even as we're doing this,
I'm sure that John Carter is committing myriad evil deeds on Mars!
Is this it? John Carter?
It's about James Links and his idiot kids!
Issue orders for pursuit immediately! Please!
That action exceeds our jurisdiction.
Your authority to command is limited to within the sphere of Earth.
That's why I'm asking you like this!
They should be using the army's top-secret circuit. It's not that I don't understand how you feel,
It can be monitored here? but the Martian army garrison has already been contacted
on the matter of the Links family.
You are to leave it to them.
What can the guys at Deimos Base do
when they were annihilated by just one LEV five years ago!
Baan Dorlfoum!
Excuse me.
Five years ago?
Deimos Base?
No, evidence that they have arrived has not yet. . .
Two days have passed since the estimated arrival.
We have already taken into account the possibility
that they have infiltrated Mars and are investigating.
Do anything to recover it before it reaches someone else's hands.
Yes!
I've caught some strange information.
Strange information?
It seems the Kudoshu asteroid has suddenly become active.
Kudoshu? First time I've heard of it.
It seems that it's an army base that was deserted fifty years ago.
It seems the army sees it as only a malfunction.
Is it there?
Probably.
Can you move out?
Of course.
Papa!
Let's have dinner.
Papa?
This is Self Defense Force Unit One!
It's no good! We're useless against it!
What was that?
Communication records from five years ago.
This is probably the Deimos Affair.
Five years ago, an accident broke out during a practice exercise.
Ostensibly, it's the incident where tens of LEVs
and a section of Deimos Base were destroyed.
Isn't that. . .
They said your mother, Rachel, died in that incident.
Mama. . .
These past five years, I've been desperate,
trying to find out about this incident, but. . .
The Earth army looks down on Mars,
and the investigation was never carried out in earnest.
To Earth it was nothing more than a small incident that happened far away.
The reason I quit the army and became a trucker is that
I thought I wouldn't be able to find the truth while on Earth.
All I learned was the fact that the Martian army
was carrying out large scale construction in secret.
That I would find the key to the truth here!
And the records concerning Mama?
If she was at Deimos, then something should be left, right?
Yeah, I've been looking, but. . .
Move!
It's dangerous here! Hurry up and get Dr. Links out!
That's about Mama!
She was at Deimos after all.
Have you found Dr. Links yet?
This port won't hold any more!
There's been an unidentified LEV going wild. . .
After all, Mama. . .
Leon! It's not like this is the end, right?
Retrieve the next data!
Yeah. . .
Hey! This one's still breathing!
I'll confirm. Face this way!
Mama!
Rachel. . .
Confirmed as Dr. Rachel Stewart Links.
I'm going to transport her to the rescue ship.
Hey! What happened after that?
I'm looking it up right now!
This is?!
It's a list of the places injured people were taken.
I'll start retrieving the data.
Found it!
She was transported to the Basilia County Army Hospital.
Then. . .
The story that she died on Deimos was a lie!
You were safe, weren't you, Rachel?
Mama!
Everyone sure is late.
I wonder what they're doing?
It seems the Deimos Affair is an incident where
an LEV manufactured on Mars went AWOL.
All that fuss because of just one LEV?
It's unbelievable, isn't it?
It wasn't just an LEV.
Leon!
Is this it?
I've captured those Martians' new weapon!
What a thing?!
The firepower and speed are incomparable!
This. . . This is!
Dolores?
This is Dolores!
Look closer. It's similar, but different.
The probability that the same person built this guy and Missy is pretty high.
Is that. . . You mean Mama?
She was involved in the incident because she built this guy?
Yes, if you think about it that way,
it makes sense why the army put out a fake mortality list.
But why did she send Dolores to where you were, Dad?
There's no mistake there was some kind of reason,
but she sure got us involved in a troublesome situation.
I was trouble after all, then?!
Missy!
You were listening?
I felt it a little bit. . .
Uncle was always kind and. . .
You're wrong!
I didn't say . . . Well, I did say, but. . .
Oh! It was so after all then?!
I can't cause everyone any more trouble!
Farewell!
Missy!
Hey! Wait!
Missy!
Come back!
I don't think she's gone outside. . . Probably.
What do you mean, "probably?"
There should be a tracking device, right?
A number of them are broken, so there's a blind spot!
Why?
Dolores broke them, didn't she?
To let the Ender come close.
Oh, that's right.
But if she's inside, then we don't have to worry.
Then let's all cooperate and look for her!
Well, now. . .
Hey?
I still have re-supplying left to do, so. . .
Good luck looking for Dolores!
Wait a minute, both of you!
I'll hang with you once the repairs are done.
We can't just leave it be, so. . .
Now that we know Mama's alive, that kid's our only link,
so you have to bring her back.
Always rebelling against your parents.
You're kids forever, aren't you?
She's got that much mass, the places she can hide. . .
It seems like there's as many as there are mountains.
Hey! Missy!
Let's quit the hide and seek now!
Hey, please come out!
Unlike her build, she's naive.
That "teenage girl" thing, isn't it?
Well. . .
"Ways to find a child that has run away: Ask the police."
Well, even if you tell me that. . .
Hey! Come out now, Missy!
Let's talk! Okay!
Oh! That is. . .
I'm going to end up like that too someday?
What should I do?
Uncle. . .
That's it, right?
It doesn't even look like they're being vigilant.
If it's gonna be like this, then it means our raid will be easy.
Wait!
Don't rush into things. You have a tendency to be impatient.
Quit acting like you're my big brother while we're under orders.
That's right, isn't it?
Found a good one?
Dad found it.
It's an advanced piece that can be used in a pinch
when rushing into an atmosphere. Nice, isn't it?
And Dolores?
That. . . That is, not yet.
We'll be done with our preparations pretty soon, so hurry up!
I know already.
What?
What is it?
This feeling is. . . Again!
What was that shake just now?
The main hatch is broken!
Something's come in!
Something? Who is it?
Like I'd know?!
Why didn't you notice they were approaching?!
I told you there's a hole in the surveillance network, didn't I?
That's right!
Okay, you guys get into the Ender.
Make it so that we can take off at any time.
I'll look for Missy!
Papa!
Noel, let's hurry!
Uncle!
Papa!
So James Links' luck has finally come to an end.
Something's coming!
It's Isis! Where is it?
Where is it coming from?
It! Is it hiding?
What?
Uncle!
Uncle, are you all right?
So you finally came out?
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
I'm really causing you nothing but trouble.
What are you saying?
I never once thought that you were troublesome.
But. . .
Earlier that was one of those figures of speech.
Don't worry about it.
Uncle. . .
What is it?
No!
Aim for only the cockpit.
Leave the rest as undamaged as possible, okay?
Roger, already!
My consciousness. . . my consciousness is fading.
Get a hold of yourself, Missy!
You're gonna get like that again?!
Missy!
Get a hold of yourself, Missy!
Anti-fortification battle. Switching over to fuselage mode.
Particle cannon output fifty percent.
Particle cannon?
Are they planning to blow up the whole of Kudoshu?!
No! Stop it!
Commencing offensive.
Uncle!
Missy!
Make it stop, Uncle!
System unstable. Command backup engaged.
Stop it! Missy!
But my consciousness. . . my consciousness is fading.
Do you want to become truly troublesome?
System unstable.
Uncle. . .
Unc. . .
That's it! The song! Sing! Missy!
Song?
That's right! That song you learned from Rachel!
You can't remember it?
Okay, I got it. Then I'll sing it for you!
Think about yourself as you always are!
Good night
Riding on a ship of clouds
Good night
With your white wings
Warmly enfolded more and more
Peacefully on my breast
It's coming, Missy! Peacefully on my breast
No choice! Peacefully on my breast
You!
I've got you now, you!
Uncle, behind you!
Are you okay?
I'm still a little out of it.
Damn, what's going on with it?
I can't predict its actions!
What?
Outta the way! Outta the way!
You're kidding!
You! Why don't you take this?!
Oh! The beer I secretly loaded!
You loaded that kind of stuff?!
Missy, can you use that weapon from earlier?
What? Probably.
Okay, shoot it around there, minimum output!
The output will be about that of a microwave though.
That's enough!
Do it!
Yes!
What?
Take this chance and get out!
Got it!
But Pete's still!
What? Where?
I don't know!
You're no different from Dad!
What did you say?
Pete! You were onboard!
Damn, a trick to fool kids.
Big Brother! Right!
You there?!
That couldn't be. . .
Brother. . .
Uncle!
How're you feeling?
The worst. I bet a hangover feels like this.
Well, my chances for a hangover have decreased.
Uncle, thank you very much!
Rachel's song saved you.
If you want to express your gratitude,
then find out where she is no matter what it takes.
Yes!
Damn!
A flying ship, dreams of a journey grown cold
My memory returns inside the brilliant light
When enfolded in the gentle breeze
Frozen eyes melt, time begins to move
The bells rings, ring on, ring on
This Earth awakens life
And then it shines, ring on, ring on
Ring on, ring on, the world
Next Episode
It's come, the Olympics!
They say that everyone's fate depends on my rope pull!
They say Mars' atmosphere is three times thicker than that of Earth's!
I will try hard and with a blaze of glory!
Next Zone of the Enders: Dolores:
"Tight Rope"
Heave, heave, ho!
