Zone of the Enders
What do you want? You show me!
Shibireru youna, touchdown!
Don't! You can't beat me!
Kamisama datte, I don't know!
Asu no koto nado, no problem, atsui kodou wa, burning blood
Oh! Let's go, osoreru mono wa
No way! Get off my way!
Know where we are going?
Zone of the Enders
Danger! Craving for the danger! Saegiru subete
Give me! Give me more danger! Buchikowasu dake
Kurakura kuru hodo yabai toki demo aito ikari de kattsuruo hirake!
You Martians! Clean out your ears and listen well!
We know that John Carter has come back to Mars!
His real name is James Links.
It doesn't matter what his name is!
These are what's important!
If you see them, report them immediately!
If you pathetically try to shelter these evil ones,
I don't know what will happen to Mars then!
You understand?!
Showdown at Noon
You may not be able to believe this,
but what I've told you just now is the truth.
We aren't criminals.
It's a pretty interesting story,
but most criminals say, "I didn't do it," don't they?
I'm saying it's not a lie!
Mr. Nikolai, you'll believe us, won't you?
I know that you aren't all bad people, but. . .
What he's saying is absurd, you know, so please don't believe it.
So we say, but we need definitive proof, don't we?
If we only had a picture. . .
Oh, Dad!
I tried making a drawing of the guys who imprisoned me before!
Take a look at it!
Mama?
This isn't it!
An Electra complex?
It's this one.
It's him! Him!
He's the one who killed the inspector too!
Then this is the real suspect?
Dolores! Can you do something like find out where this guy is?
That's impossible even for me!
Really?
If we could find him that way, we wouldn't have to suffer.
There's nothing to do but find Rachel after all.
All these mysteries will be solved if we see Rachel.
The proof that will clear us from these suspicions should appear too.
How about it? Does it look good on me?
No matter how you look at it, you're a splendid dome repair worker.
Really?
I wonder if it'll be all right to let just the two of them go?
That guy's all right, isn't he?
The whole family can't go shopping.
What's wrong?
What is that?
Oh, that's a human face rock.
Human face rock?
What's this?
Oh, they're life sized digital figures.
Creepy!
What is this?! The worst, isn't it?
It's too mean.
If you stare at them too much, you'll seem suspicious.
I can't accept this after all.
How irritating!
Calm down a little.
I wonder if it was all right to send just the two of them?
You're the one who said it was all right, weren't you, Dad?
No, when I think about it longer,
maybe it was bad to let a young man and woman go alone together.
It'll be all right. Miss Noel isn't a child either.
No, I'm worried because she isn't a child!
That's right, isn't it?
Right now, they might be getting to know each other or something.
Getting to know each other? What in the world. . .
Because it is something adults do, you know.
I'll go see how they're doing!
Hey, Dad?!
There's no helping him.
Tease him just a little, and there he goes.
Can't he let his kids grow up?
Just because a young man and woman are alone together,
it's not like something will always happen.
Pete, you're my bodyguard now.
If that Electra complex tries something weird,
scratch him as hard as you can.
What's that about?!
Stare. . .
Missy? I'd like to hurry, but. . .
Stare. . .
What is this, Uncle?
These are models of Martians.
These are Martians?! I didn't know!
Hey, hey, these aren't the real things.
I know that, Uncle.
Wow!
In the past,
Earthlings used to imagine that Martians looked like that.
They're probably from a Martian amusement park
that was scrapped after being half built.
It's cute!
I'll call you Baby Octopus.
What are you going to do by naming it?
What is it?
One trailer is approaching from 3 o'clock.
Okay, let's have this guy give us a ride to the sphere,
because you stand out, Missy.
Staying behind again, again?
Damn, how unlucky.
Fainting in a place like this.
This voice is!
Hey! You alive?
Oh! I thought so.
Raia! You!
Links!
When the Earth Army occupied Deimos,
I just happened to be down on Mars for a job
and then I was in a bind because I couldn't get back to Deimos.
It's that all of a sudden, right?
It's not the time and place for work!
And so I gave up on going back in a hurry and ran away, you see?
When it comes down to it,
the cause of all this is that job you got me, isn't it?
No. . . no!
I couldn't have known that kind of thing was in the container.
Nice to meet you! I'm Dolores, the orbital frame.
So polite. . . Thank you.
But murder isn't good, Links.
I didn't do it! It's an unbelievable set up.
What? Is that so?
Yeah!
Oh, then what about that orbital elevator thing?
That was an "Act of God" type thing.
Anyway, that container Missy was in,
where was that hauled in from? Tell me.
Well. . .
Well, what?
I left all my data at Deimos!
You're useless!
Thank you very much.
What's the matter?
You've been happily laughing all day.
I was thinking that when we first met,
I had you come along with me on my shopping like this too.
Oh, that's right, isn't it?
Maybe you'd forgotten about it?
How mean!
No, I remember.
It kind of seems like I'm just using you, doesn't it, Mr. Nikolai?
Say, Mr. Nikolai,
do you have a lover or something?
No, unfortunately, I've been focused only on work until now.
That's how it's been!
I wasn't found out after all.
Miss Noel. . .
You still can't make contact with Noel?
Yeah, I've been hailing her, but. . .
We've got our hands on food and stuff!
Tell her to quit loitering and come back quick!
Heave ho! Heave ho!
Taking away people's merchandise.
Links, you're horrible.
What're you doing?
I'm taking pictures of people who've come to ill luck
through meeting up with the Links Family.
So I'm miserable after all!
Don't say things that sound so bad!
You're the one who made us miserable!
Oh, Mr. Nikolai!
What happened? We couldn't contact you.
Hey, you aren't doing weird things to Noel, are you now?!
I'm keeping her in my custody.
You! What did you do to Noel?!
According to the circumstances, I may not forgive you!
You needn't worry. I'm just having her sleep.
What's the meaning of this?!
Are you planning to sell us to the police or something?!
They have nothing to do with it. Look.
This is?!
You remember, don't you? It used to be my face.
This. . . this person!
You were still after us?
Hey! Tell us your demands!
What'll we have to do to get Noel returned safely?
I want a duel with Dolores.
A duel?
Around the end of the 20th century,
there was a big to-do about there being a human face rock on Mars
and there were businessmen who tried to build
a real human face rock in that location to attract tourists.
But they couldn't get the financing and the project fell through.
The human face rock is in a state of neglect.
So it's a perfect place for a duel?
It's a trap, Dad!
He was tricking us this whole time, you know!
Saying it's a duel!
He probably has a lot of his cohorts waiting! I'm sure!
This isn't a fair fight!
Leon, even if it is a trap,
you can't turn a blind eye to your own family, can you?
That's right!
And if you do it right, you have a chance to catch the real criminal!
He's not that easy an opponent.
Missy, can you go?
Yes, I'm okay anytime!
Dad. . .
Leon, if the unthinkable happens to me, you. . .
No, it's nothing.
Uncle?
The color in your face isn't good. Are you all right?
I'm fine.
Why do you think Mr. Nikolai thought to do something like a duel?
Who knows?
He probably has his reasons.
Now, shall we go, Missy?
Yes!
Dad. . .
In one hour a point signal will be transmitted.
Someone should find you.
You liar!
It's all for the sake of Mars.
We were given the orders to recover Dolores.
But we failed entirely, and were taken off the assignment.
Then why now?
It's not fun for anyone to end up losing, right?
That's just putting the blame on us for no reason!
Because of you, I've finally scrabbled this far.
I am thankful.
It was fun observing your family.
You! Idiot!
That's it.
I've come, Nikolai!
Uncle, there's a high level jamming signal
all around this area with a radius of ten kilometers.
All sensors are down sixty percent.
So that means it's already begun.
Wow! Amazing! Amazing! Super intense!
Dad! Answer me, Dad!
I don't want to cross guns with something like that.
If the jamming is so strong,
then he shouldn't be able to see us either!
Don't think you can get away!
No!
Come out, James Links! I won't let it end like this!
I'll put up a shield!
Don't!
There?
Get rid of the shield! He'll find us!
Uncle. . .
The final stroke!
Noel. . .
What?!
Damn. . .
Damn! The controls don't work!
Grabbing?! That can't be?!
Enemy craft, mobility at sixty percent and declining.
Will commence transfer to complete removal mode.
Stop it! Missy!
You stop this!
Stop! Can't you hear my voice?!
Uncle, what did I . . .
What did I do?
Missy, can you talk to Nikolai?
Yes. . .
Nikolai, can you hear me? Nikolai?
Where is Noel?
Find her yourself.
For the moment she's safe.
Why did you want a duel?
You had many chances to get us.
I wonder why?
I had a younger brother.
Younger brother?
He always followed after me,
but in contrast, he was strong willed
and he joined the organization because I was in it.
He died at Kudoshu.
Yes. . .
I was the one who gave the final stroke,
but even so, it's not something one can come to accept, is it?
I wanted to take revenge for my younger brother and die!
No good! Get back!
I got it, Dad.
Mama's at Nokuteisu Base, and. . .
There's even data about Bufram's security!
I can use this!
But why is there so much important data?
He was just a careless guy to leave it in such easy to find places!
He didn't think even this much that he was going to lose?
That's why Martians are. . .
Missy, did you make graves?
Yes. . .
But that Nikolai was awful, wasn't he?
Deceiving us and acting like a good guy.
That's why Martians are. . .
Goodnight
Riding on a ship of clouds
Goodnight
With your white wings
Warmly enfolded more and more
Peacefully on my breast

Next Episode
We've finally reached it,
the day of Uncle and Auntie's ten year reunion!
Auntie is a birth mother to me too!
How will I be spoiled if I jump into those arms?
Next week, Zone of the Enders, Dolores:
"The Time of Reunion"
Maybe I'll throw Uncle away and run to Auntie?!
