1. I'm a soldier, znatchit ya...
I'm a soldier, and that means...
Copy !req
2. I otvetchik I sud'ya
that I am both defendant and judge.
Copy !req
3. Ya stoyu na dvuh kontsah ognya
I stand at both ends of the fire.
Copy !req

5. obgonyaya smert' I zhizn',

6. ya begu srazit'sya s ten'yu lzhi
I'm running to fight the shadow of lies.

No matter how tangled the web of deception is woven,
Copy !req
8. pokazhet lik sveta istina...
truth will always illuminate the outline of the light...
Copy !req
9. Save your tears for the day...
Copy !req
10. when the pain is far behind.
Copy !req
11. On your feet, come with me.
Copy !req
12. We are soldiers, stand or die.
Copy !req
13. Save your fears, take your place.
Copy !req
14. Save them for the Judgment Day.
Copy !req
15. Fast and free, follow me.
Copy !req
16. Time to make the sacrifice.
Copy !req
17. We rise or fall...
Copy !req
18. Go on ahead!
Copy !req
19. Don't be stupid!
Copy !req
20. Using formation B, huh?
Copy !req
21. We'll stick to ground-level corridors. We need to
shake them before they start moving any faster.
Copy !req
22. Got it.
Copy !req
23. Hold it.
Copy !req
24. This is strange.
The ECM isn't working.
Copy !req
25. Something must've happened.
Copy !req
26. Okay, people, switch your comms to "on."
Pursue using formation A.
Copy !req
27. Proto, can you lock
the door?
Copy !req
28. Yes, sir. I'm sorry to put you
to all this trouble...
Copy !req
29. That's all right.
Copy !req
30. More importantly, have you gotten
any more reports from the Tachikomas?
Copy !req
31. Yes, sir. The nuclear sub doesn't
appear to be doing anything.
Copy !req
32. Also, it looks like the sentry plane
over Dejima has crashed.
Copy !req
33. The refugees
shot it down?
Copy !req
34. I don't have all the details,
but it seems likely.
Copy !req
35. Which means that we can get through
to Dejima now, doesn't it?
Copy !req
36. That's the place, huh?
Copy !req
37. Hey!
Copy !req
38. Don't you mind me. I'm here on orders
from the Chief Cabinet Secretary.
Copy !req
39. Sorry, fellas, but this
is a national emergency.
Copy !req
40. Prime Minister, I'm here
to take you back.
Copy !req
41. Chief Aramaki says that he
needs your assistance.
Copy !req
42. Please come with me,
ma'am.
Copy !req
43. I understand.
Take me to him.
Copy !req
44. Representative, it looks like the MSDA's
sentry plane has been shot down.
Copy !req
45. Oh, he's trying to reunite the
isolated refugees, is he?
Copy !req
46. It's about time to make
the finishing touches.
Copy !req
47. Manipulate the Defense Ministry into carrying
out a series of bombardments from their ships.
Copy !req
48. Understood, sir.
Copy !req
49. Is anyone here?
Copy !req
50. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
51. I'd like you to mail
a letter for me.
Copy !req
52. A letter, sir?
Copy !req
53. That's right.
By express delivery.
Copy !req
54. Tachikoma!
Do you read me?
Copy !req
55. We read you, Major!
Copy !req
56. - We have a lock on the Major's position!
- So Mr. Batou's okay!
Copy !req
57. What's the status
of Batou's team?
Copy !req
58. They're safe.
Copy !req
59. They seem to be inside one of the buildings,
so we can't get visual confirmation.
Copy !req
60. I've found Kuze. Relay my position
to Batou and the others.
Copy !req
61. Yes, ma'am. Major, we've got some other,
more disturbing news...
Copy !req
62. What is it?
Copy !req
63. The thing is, an American Empire nuclear sub
is holding position off the coast of Okinawa,
Copy !req
64. and it looks like it's planning to
launch a nuclear missile at Dejima.
Copy !req
65. Are you sure? Give me
a visual feed!
Copy !req
66. Roger!
Copy !req
67. What the hell?
Copy !req
68. Why the hell did we even bother
to bring this thing here, then?
Copy !req
69. Son of a bitch!
Copy !req
70. What about the arrival of
the inspection team, Major?
Copy !req
71. Batou, start heading for the bridge
right away with the plutonium.
Copy !req
72. They're planning to launch that nuclear missile
before the inspection team gets here!
Copy !req
73. Give the plutonium to the SDA forces
who are holding the bridge...
Copy !req
74. and explain the situation
to them!
Copy !req
75. No, you get out of
here first, Major.
Copy !req
76. We've got some dangerous customers
on our tail at the moment.
Copy !req
77. We'll try to move as fast as we can,
but things might get a little hairy here.
Copy !req
78. Who's after you?
Copy !req
79. My guess is the Rangers
from Section 4.
Copy !req
80. Are you sure
about that?
Copy !req
81. Yeah. Looks like they're followed us here
to get the plutonium back.
Copy !req
82. I'll meet up with you soon.
Do whatever it takes to give them the slip.
Copy !req
83. We'll give it our
best shot.
Copy !req
84. Let's move!
Copy !req
85. How many times have we met?
Is this the third? No, the fourth?
Copy !req
86. Why are you following me?
Copy !req
87. We went to a lot of trouble
to come here.
Copy !req
88. We brought the plutonium,
just like we said.
Copy !req
89. Come with me.
Copy !req
90. If you don't, there'll be a huge number
of casualties, refugees included.
Copy !req
91. And they're going to put the blame
for it squarely on your shoulders.
Copy !req
92. What's about to happen?
Copy !req
93. My guess is a nuclear attack disguised
as the refugees blowing themselves up.
Copy !req
94. What?
Copy !req
95. Who are you?
Copy !req
96. Hey, look a this! A hatch on
the sub has started to open!
Copy !req
97. This is bad... They might
launch at any minute!
Copy !req
98. This type of missile flies all the
way up into the stratosphere!
Copy !req
99. Looks like they want the
attack to go unnoticed.
Copy !req
100. Even if they can clean up the radiation,
the blast radius will be so big...
Copy !req
101. that it'll take out all the SDA soldiers
that are deployed in Nagasaki and Dejima!
Copy !req
102. Those guys are crazy... Isn't there anything
we can do to stop the attack?
Copy !req
103. What if we sent this visual feed
all around the world?
Copy !req
104. There wouldn't be any point.
Pictures don't prove anything anymore.
Copy !req
105. It would just end up as a source of
amusement for the uninvolved masses,
Copy !req
106. an image from an unknown source that
showed up at an all-too-convenient time.
Copy !req
107. B-But, if we don't
do something...
Copy !req
108. Hey, it looks like the Aegis cruisers are
gonna start attacking with missiles...
Copy !req
109. before the nuclear strike!
Copy !req
110. They caught up to us, huh?
Copy !req
111. Looks that way.
Copy !req
112. They switched to a different formation.
Activate optical camouflage.
Copy !req
113. Tachikoma, can you locate their encrypted
signals and run a back-hack?
Copy !req
114. We'll give it a try,
but you should be careful.
Copy !req
115. There will be a missile attack
from the Aegis cruisers soon.
Copy !req
116. I don't think they'll attack
the residential area directly,
Copy !req
117. but there's no telling where
the missiles will land.
Copy !req
118. What about that
nuclear missile?
Copy !req
119. It hasn't been
launched yet.
Copy !req
120. They sure didn't waste any time
getting started...
Copy !req
121. Got movement
over here, too.
Copy !req
122. Damn, they've started.
Copy !req
123. We don't have much time.
We'll surrender to the SDA together.
Copy !req
124. I'll drag you there
if I have to.
Copy !req
125. What'll it be?
Copy !req
126. Very well. I'm explaining the situation to the
refugees who are currently connected to me.
Copy !req
127. I'll leave the final decision up to them, but
for the time being, let's head to the bridge.
Copy !req
128. Tachikoma, show me
the trajectory of the...
Copy !req
129. A Self Defense Army counterattack in response
to the missile attack from Dejima has begun!
Copy !req
130. According to government statements,
this is a measure that must be taken...
Copy !req
131. in order to secure the area for the
arrival of the UN inspection team.
Copy !req
132. I repeat, a Self Defense Army
counterattack has...
Copy !req
133. Well, looks like
it's started...
Copy !req
134. Tachikoma, are the Major
and the others okay?
Copy !req
135. We've lost communications with the Major.
Mr. Batou and the others are okay, though.
Copy !req
136. And it's Section 4
that's after them?
Copy !req
137. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
138. Sorry to keep you waiting!
Copy !req
139. Listening to the reports coming out
of Dejima are making me worried sick!
Copy !req
140. What good is your getting
worried gonna do?
Copy !req
141. Focus on doing everything we can
right here and now.
Copy !req
142. Roger!
Copy !req
143. Are you all right?
Copy !req
144. Yes.
Copy !req
145. It looks like things have
quieted down for now.
Copy !req
146. Tachikoma, situation report.
Copy !req
147. Major! You're okay!
Copy !req
148. Yeah, somehow.
Copy !req
149. The nuclear missile might
be launched any minute now.
Copy !req
150. You should get out of
the area right away!
Copy !req
151. Have there been any official statements
from the government?
Copy !req
152. They announced that there would be
a limited series of air strikes...
Copy !req
153. in order to send in
the inspection team.
Copy !req
154. It's no use. It looks like
we're sealed in.
Copy !req
155. We are, huh?
Copy !req
156. Major, don't tell me you're...
Copy !req
157. I am. I'm trapped beneath
a pile of rubble.
Copy !req
158. It looks like I'll have to leave this
in Batou's hands now.
Copy !req
159. Oh, no! Isn't there anything
you can do to get out?
Copy !req
160. I'll see what I can do, but focus all
your attention on assisting Batou's team.
Copy !req
161. Roger!
Copy !req
162. Are you linked
with the refugees?
Copy !req
163. Yes. A good number of them
have returned.
Copy !req
164. It looks like most of them are in a panic
thanks to that air strike, though.
Copy !req
165. You said something about
a nuclear attack.
Copy !req
166. How did you find out about it?
What group do you work for?
Copy !req
167. Believe it or not,
I'm a police officer.
Copy !req
168. In the course of investigating
the Individual Eleven crime,
Copy !req
169. we uncovered a project within the government
designed to physically drive out the refugees.
Copy !req
170. We've been trailing you
in order to expose it.
Copy !req
171. If that's true, why did you
bring the plutonium here?
Copy !req
172. Because we knew that you hadn't
been given any plutonium.
Copy !req
173. So we stole the nuclear bomb
that was used in Fukuoka...
Copy !req
174. and tried to use that as evidence
to resolve this situation.
Copy !req
175. But the plan our enemy came up with
unfolded faster than we anticipated.
Copy !req
176. We never expected him to make a deal with
the American Empire for a nuclear strike.
Copy !req
177. What's happened to
the plutonium?
Copy !req
178. My team should be bringing it
to the Self Defense Army,
Copy !req
179. but they've been surrounded by
a squad that was tailing them,
Copy !req
180. so that's going to be
difficult now, too.
Copy !req
181. I see.
Copy !req
182. So, have you given up on the idea
of making me turn myself in?
Copy !req
183. I haven't exactly abandoned
the idea, but, well...
Copy !req
184. I turned off the zoning and filtering
on my hub cyberbrain a while ago.
Copy !req
185. Anyone who wants to can connect and see
everything that is happening here.
Copy !req
186. We can try to get out of here, but I'm going to
try to carry out my revolution at the same time.
Copy !req
187. I made up my mind to go through with it when
you told me there would be a nuclear strike.
Copy !req
188. Made up your mind?
What do you mean, revolution?
Copy !req
189. Tachikoma, haven't you been able to run
a back-hack on their communications yet?
Copy !req
190. No, sir. They seem to be changing their
encryption at random based on prime numbers.
Copy !req
191. Get down!
Copy !req
192. - We're moving out.
- Got it.
Copy !req
193. We're going outside.
Tachikoma, how's that back-hack coming?
Copy !req
194. Just a little longer!
Copy !req
195. Kuze, why did you become
the refugees' leader?
Copy !req
196. And how did you break free of the virus'
mind control in the first place?
Copy !req
197. I already had an objective.
The liberation of the refugees.
Copy !req
198. That resulted in the Individual Eleven
virus being triggered,
Copy !req
199. but when I joined forces with them, I noticed a
discrepancy between their ideology and mine.
Copy !req
200. That's probably why I was able
to break free from the virus.
Copy !req
201. But why the fixation on
refugee liberation?
Copy !req
202. I heard you spent time wandering Eurasia,
does it have anything to do with that?
Copy !req
203. There's no direct connection.
Copy !req
204. I only traveled the continent because
I wanted time to reaffirm my motives.
Copy !req
205. I wondered if I would be able to carry out
the revolution, the liberation I'd envisioned.
Copy !req
206. What's this "revolution"
you keep talking about?
Copy !req
207. The transference of people
to the superstructure.
Copy !req
208. To have people cast off the fossilized system
and fuse with the net.
Copy !req
209. Fuse with the net?
Copy !req
210. How's your decryption of Section 4's
communication codes coming?
Copy !req
211. Almost there...
Copy !req
212. Is there any way that we could
hack this submarine?
Copy !req
213. It's flat-out impossible.
Copy !req
214. During an operation, submarines are
in a completely standalone state.
Copy !req
215. How about the crew's
personal e-mails?
Copy !req
216. Maybe we could back-hack a crewman
who's breaking regs!
Copy !req
217. Oh, I follow you! That might
be worth trying out!
Copy !req
218. Chief, I've brought her.
Copy !req
219. Proto, open the door.
Copy !req
220. Are you all right,
Prime Minister Kayabuki?
Copy !req
221. I'm up to speed on
the situation.
Copy !req
222. Can you patch my hotline to the
American Empire through to this room?
Copy !req
223. I'll try requesting that they
call off the nuclear strike.
Copy !req
224. Please do. It all hinges on whether or not
they realize what is going on.
Copy !req
225. You have a point.
Copy !req
226. Hold it right there.
We have you surrounded.
Copy !req
227. Put down the plutonium and disengage
your optical camo!
Copy !req
228. Mr. Batou! The back-hack
is in place!
Copy !req
229. All right,
I'm setting it down!
Copy !req
230. While I'm putting the case down, make a break
for the walls with your camo still on.
Copy !req
231. Roger.
Copy !req
232. What the...?
Copy !req
233. Hold your fire!
You'll hit our own men!
Copy !req
234. I'm going to disengage
my optical camouflage now.
Copy !req
235. If you still feel like carrying out your mission
after I do, go ahead and shoot me.
Copy !req
236. But if seeing my face convinces you otherwise,
listen to what I have to say.
Copy !req
237. This is a matter
of life and death!
Copy !req
238. You're...
Copy !req
239. Those eyes...
Were you a Ranger?
Copy !req
240. That's right.
Copy !req
241. My experiences on the peninsula
gave me an insight into life.
Copy !req
242. I found an order that was full of contradictions.
Exploitation at the hands of the powerful.
Copy !req
243. A structure that had
grown corrupt.
Copy !req
244. But what disillusioned me most of all was the
utter lack of responsibility of the people.
Copy !req
245. Even though they haven't created anything
themselves and understand nothing,
Copy !req
246. when the masses come across
information that they agree with,
Copy !req
247. they immediately internalize it
and are thus controlled.
Copy !req
248. People who feel no sense of responsibility,
no matter the unintended consequences,
Copy !req
249. caused by their unmotivated actions that
make poor use of the infrastructure of the net.
Copy !req
250. My revolution is also an act of
revenge against such people.
Copy !req
251. Revenge?
Copy !req
252. I've had a full prosthetic body
ever since I was a child,
Copy !req
253. so I've constantly felt a sense of
disparity between mind and body.
Copy !req
254. If such a thing
could be done,
Copy !req
255. I wanted to abandon this clumsy body
and paddle out onto the sea of the net.
Copy !req
256. The Asian refugees gave a man like me
hope to live.
Copy !req
257. They told me that my artificial face
was a handsome one,
Copy !req
258. and flattered me by saying that
my Ghost can be seen in it.
Copy !req
259. It was then that it hit home for the first time that
the spirit and the body might be inseparable.
Copy !req
260. And I was able to think of myself as
a human being with a body of his own.
Copy !req
261. But when they come across information
that they find palatable,
Copy !req
262. they get swept along in the direction
that is easiest, just like everyone else.
Copy !req
263. I suppose that in the end, humans are
designed to follow the path of least resistance,
Copy !req
264. So? How are you planning
to carry out your revenge?
Copy !req
265. I will take into the net the memories and
Ghosts of those who are linked to me.
Copy !req
266. They will lose their physical bodies
if a nuke is dropped here,
Copy !req
267. but they will gain the chance
to undergo a forced evolution.
Copy !req
268. What are the odds of them being able
to retain their individuality in the net?
Copy !req
269. I don't have the
answer to that.
Copy !req
270. But as pioneers, they might become beings
who will enlighten those left behind in the base,
Copy !req
271. constantly making them aware
of the superstructure.
Copy !req
272. In exactly the same way that humans
have felt reverence and awe...
Copy !req
273. towards spiritual beings
since ancient times.
Copy !req
274. That's your revenge against, and offer of
salvation to, those who let you down?
Copy !req
275. Yes, although I believe it
is a revolution.
Copy !req
276. I see that you're
full-prosthetic, too.
Copy !req
277. Then you must have felt
the doubts and fears...
Copy !req
278. caused by the disparity between
body and spirit, just as I have.
Copy !req
279. What do you say?
Will you come with me?
Copy !req
280. Do the refugees intend
to go with you?
Copy !req
281. Yes, unfortunately.
Copy !req
282. Most of them prefer the idea of carrying out
the "nuclear suicide bombing" scenario.
Copy !req
283. They probably want to feel like
they weren't defeated.
Copy !req
284. Even though that, too,
is taking the easy way out...
Copy !req
285. I see.
Copy !req
286. Batou, I'm going to try rescuing the refugees
using the method that Kuze suggested.
Copy !req
287. The rest of you, let the Self Defense Army
know about the nuclear strike.
Copy !req
288. Batou, are you listening
to me?
Copy !req
289. You crazy bitch!
I'm not letting you go alone...
Copy !req
290. Wait for me! No way am I gonna
let you go alone!
Copy !req
291. What are they
waiting for?
Copy !req
292. Beats me.
Copy !req
293. Anyway, let's get this
to the bridge.
Copy !req
294. The GSDA might believe your story
if it comes from us.
Copy !req
295. Once the second air strike is over,
commence the invasion of Dejima.
Copy !req
296. We're gonna get it ready
for the inspection team!
Copy !req
297. Finding out a galaxy...
Copy !req
298. of planets and stars within me...
Copy !req
299. Listening to each of them...
Copy !req
300. singing the same silent melody...
Copy !req
301. I've never seen such beauty...
Copy !req
302. In possibility...
Copy !req
303. No speck of doubt or fear...
Copy !req
304. Wake up!
Copy !req
305. I hear a voice,
Copy !req
306. hear a voice calling out to me...
Copy !req
307. I see inside,
Copy !req
308. see the light now ever holding me...
Copy !req
309. All the truth, all I need...
Copy !req
310. to make of this reality, it's inside...
Copy !req
311. The beauty within the shell...
Copy !req
312. I hear a voice,
Copy !req
313. hear a voice calling out to me...
Copy !req
314. I see inside,
Copy !req
315. see the light now ever holding me...
Copy !req
316. All the truth, all I need...
Copy !req
317. to make of this reality, it's inside...
Copy !req
318. Right here within the shell...
Copy !req
