Go run through, just as your heart guides you
To the place of freedom which isn't shown on a map
In the town where a faint darkness settles
A crowd of people who hide their true faces
I struggled those days, but could not protect your smile
Soar above the sadness by piercing through
Shout out your passion
And take the pain along with you
To the future where you will meet your unknown self
The First Stage
During the 20th century, there was a large-scale war.
It was a full-force battle between humans and monsters.
After bloodshed so violent no words could ever explain...
it was the monsters who won.
Time went by and a new century began.
And then, people started to forget that melody.
After all, this world is just an illusion.
So, those who can have exciting dreams are the winners.
Welcome to the labyrinth.
Chapter 8
The Range That's Outside the Range
Episode 21
The Range That's Outside the Range
Child
They can't attack us from out there.
I'll crush them with my fangs.
That's a bit much.
The Vintarlize is an armed defense ship designed for satellite orbit.
And it has tremendous power.
While it's protecting the Mitranome...
we can't recklessly attack it.
The Child Lizard was originally part of the Mitranome.
It's from Engine-2.
The Mitranome will allow this ship to approach it...
since both ships have the same code.
Although it's troublesome...
I have to dock with the Mitranome first then go inside to destroy it.
So, when is my turn?
Well...
I guess it might come later.
This is awesome.
The planet is such a beautiful sphere.
It's the same color as you.
When are you coming back?
Bocca, come over to the bridge.
Thanks.
I want to explain our strategy to everybody.
Oh, a horn.
The horn can control the ship freely.
Oh, I see.
The Mitranome is a space base that generates...
the organic magnetic field to make the Aibar machines fly...
within the Earth's range.
We must stop the enemy's plan to destroy it.
We're at a disadvantage in this battle.
We have to be on the defensive.
That's right.
That's why the best thing is to activate...
The Mitranome's primary system.
Coco, you are too close.
When its primary system EPR circuit operates...
The Mitranome will transport to an area that no one can access.
Theoretically...
it will oscillate between past and present every 0.07 seconds...
remaining in satellite orbit.
It becomes invisible from space.
And the living magnetic field in the Earth's range becomes stronger.
That is what the Mitranome was meant to accomplish...
in its completed form.
If we go inside the Mitranome...
it is very possible to activate the system.
Coco, you are drinking too much.
Engine-2 is approaching the enemy.
The enemy ship, Mahoroba, is now within attacking range!
Begin combat!
The surface control room must focus to maintain...
the safety of Child Lizard!
Roger!
Prepare to fire the GA missiles!
My turn. My turn.
Target! The enemy ship Mahoroba!
Direction 632 mark four! Distance...!
Distance 800!
Fire!
Six GA missiles are approaching!
Evade action. Kuron-Alpha!
Shield 30 percent gone.
Continue to fire the GA missiles!
My turn! My turn!
Let's Fire!
Fire!
Thank you, Skyblue.
Thank you.
They're coming again.
I can dodge those missiles.
Can't you intercept?
We don't have any missiles.
All the weapons were removed from this ship.
What did you say?
Kuron.
We are all right. Maintaining 70 percent shield.
Evade action Nick-Beta!
Uh! Ouch!
Shield reduced an additional 20 percent!
That was close
What?
It evaded the second wave, too?
Is it outside of our range?
Keep shooting!
Smoke out the Melos warriors out of the ship!
My turn. My turn.
They know we don't have any weapons.
Even though this is an unarmed ship...
it must have some ability to fight.
Since the Melos warriors and the Aibar machines are...
lined up like this...
My ears hurt.
Nick, the air pressure's low in the hanger deck.
Oh, and check the drive mode conversion device.
Roger.
Neither of you have any experience fighting in space, right?
Fighting in space?
Yes, fighting in space. This is called Bio Concerto.
Bio Concerto
Gel
Bio Concerto? This is it?
Right.
Melos warriors can fight in space driving mode...
using their own Aibar machines.
But, why do we have to take our clothes off for that?
Hey, Bocca! Come on! Move quickly!
Hurry up!
We must hurry up.
Otherwise they'll start attacking us again!
Now we can fight in the vacuum of space and not die.
- Wait! Wait a second. Now we can fight in the vacuum of space and not die.
You mean I also have to?
Both of your Aibar machines are equipped to do this.
Right, Skyblue?
Yes.
The maximum time limit is 37 minutes and 33 seconds.
But why do we have to get naked?
We must put the gel on our body for that!
Bio Concerto
Gel
To maximize its power, we must put gel all over our body.
Hey, help me put gel on my back.
What?
After we fight the full amount of time in Bio Concerto mode...
we must come back here for at least 9 minutes.
While the other fighters are on the battlefield...
you'll need to reapply the gel all over your body.
Why haven't you explained this to me before?
Because this method is only used in space.
Tone! Hey, what are you waiting for?
Hurry up.
Do I have to put it on?
What do you mean? Of course you have to.
No, I don't want to. No!
You could even use this on Earth...
if the Mitranome was fully operational.
Do I have to do this on the surface, too?
Here, Tone.
After you prepare for Bio Concerto, you have to stay close to me.
No, not there.
Tone, your skin looks so beautiful.
Coco, we must hurry.
Don't worry. I can gel my front-side on my own.
In theory, up to 120 meters is acceptable.
But, if you go any further than that from me...
it'll shorten the time limit.
Bio Concerto is very useful.
Your Aibar machine will keep an eye on your biological data.
Uh, yes.
Coco, hurry!
Bio Concerto!
I'm going ahead!
Coco, the third wave is approaching.
It'll take a while to restore the shield.
Can you keep blocking until then?
Roger! No problem!
Let's go!
Ring out! My Melos!
Four Card!
Did she just say, "Ring out! My Melos!"?
In the vacuum of space, where no sound travels?
They really lack common sense.
Then it's time for us to start the real Silent Operations.
Fire the GA missiles! Blow up the little vagabond girl!
If I had the Noise Cannon, I could disable that Aibar machine easily.
Damn Lucky Thoroughbred!
Oops. I shouldn't say that out loud.
My turn. My turn.
We can't just keep intercepting the missiles like this.
One more warrior should come out before Coco reaches her time limit.
Wow, Bocca! You are pitching a tent!
Elanvital?
Why doesn't your Aibar machine fly?
Stupid Melos.
Let's go. Elanvital!
Bio Concerto!
This is warm.
Oh, I did it.
What?
Coco, Bocca just went out.
Bocca?
Here they come! Those useless bugs!
The bugs carrying the time limit matter!
Let's Fire!
Now, Bocca.
You don't have time to be fooling around!
Ring out! My Melos!
Bocca, can you handle it over there?
Flush!
I'll leave it to you for a little while.
Get used to this quickly.
Are you going back? Why?
Thank you!
My
My turn
My turn My
My turn My turn
Discount Uribou.
I'm impressed by your splendid monster battles.
Can you do it?
Roger.
Just fit rim!
Why isn't Tone coming out onto the field?
That super-aggressive girl!
I wonder if she thinks that she's the strongest of the Monster Union?
My fangs are aching! Boost! Foost! Woost!
I'm going to make a sortie! Viva Monster Union!
A robot monster finally showed up.
I'm sure selfish agents of the Monster Union aren't ready to die...
in a place like this.
So Engine-2 must be equipped with a system to return to Earth.
I want to steal that ship if possible.
Viva, viva, viva, viva, viva, viva, viva, viva...!
Damn. Why'd she have to go back now?
Well. It's difficult to do this in zero G.
Are you afraid of space? You came here to fight, didn't you?
My ears hurt.
Air pressure should be normal now.
I think you are very strong.
I aimed many arrows at my enemies.
And I shot as soon as I felt some energy from them.
So, is Bio Concerto...?
It's very easy. I'm so addicted to it.
Even if my physical condition isn't good...
my Aibar machine will detect it and give me support immediately.
We have to go onto the field immediately.
Did you finish already?
See.
He even lets me know when I should go to the bathroom.
Oh, I see.
Viva, viva, viva, viva, viva!
She can attack from any direction?
Bocca. Missiles are approaching!
I can't dodge them. Back up, please!
Cute!
You are so cute.
Hey, Skyblue, Tone is...
She's shy because you know about her physical condition.
So, she can't fight.
Coco.
Didn't you come here for my wings?
Skyblue.
Bio Concerto
Gel
Bocca is in danger. Can you come help us quickly?
Tone.
Tone. It's not scary. Now, relax.
Bio Concerto.
More.
Bio Concerto.
Stronger.
Bio Concerto.
You have to open your heart!
Bio Concerto!
Accept me.
Bio Concerto!
Open your heart!
Bio Concerto!
Open your heart!
Bio Concerto!
I feel it. I feel it.
I feel you, Tone.
Can you feel me, too?
Yes.
Let's go, Tone! Go!
Go! Go!
Go!
Viva, viva, viva, viva...
Tone
Danger Approaching closer
It's her!
Danger Approaching closer
Let me take care of her!
Your friend?
Tone, you are nothing more than pig's food!
Ring out! My Melos!
Go! Boost! Foost! Woost!
Straight Flush!
Discount Uribou. Withdraw immediately!
Docking
Tone
Withdraw
We're going to dock with the Mitranome!
Withdraw
After that, we'll go inside.
Withdraw
Not until I beat Tone!
This is an A-class command.
The enemy ship Engine-2 docked.
Are they trying to destroy it from the inside?
We must dock, too.
Everyone must withdraw immediately.
Remember this!
Tone, you should hurry too.
The Mitranome.
Hey, the quiet voice is sounding so sad
Why are you hiding your loneliness
And just smiling silently in front of me?
Even the night I'm losing the courage
that tomorrow will come again
So, let's go as far as I can to look for new pain
If you would be by my side on the night I can't sleep
I wish for a new future, just to hold it, so I can continue walking
Forever

Is he living all alone in this space fortress?
Since he's the same Unicorn series, can we make him our ally?
Don't relax your guard.
There is a reason that they used to be called "the forbidden series".
Next episode, "The Mitranome".
