Copy !req
3. The Capital of the Free Planets Alliance, Heinessenpolis.
Copy !req
4. About 100 kilometers away...
Copy !req
5. Heinessenpolis
Copy !req
6. the Strategical Planning Headquarters
was holding a memorial service...
Copy !req
7. Strategical Planning HQ
Copy !req
8. for the soldiers killed
during the Battle of Astate.
Copy !req
9. Commodore...
Copy !req
10. it's almost
time to get up.
Copy !req
11. Commodore Yang Wenli
Copy !req
12. Let me sleep a
little while longer, Julian.
Copy !req
13. But if you don't hurry, you'll miss the memorial service.
Copy !req
14. Julian Minci
Copy !req
15. Good!
'Cause I'm not going.
Copy !req
16. But Commodore, aren't you the one being honored for distinguished service at Astate?
Copy !req
17. I'd think you
have to attend.
Copy !req
18. Because, as it were,
you're the star.
Copy !req
19. Properly speaking, the stars of the
memorial service are the war dead.
Copy !req
20. Not me, a survivor.
Copy !req
21. Neither one of us will be the star of this memorial service. You see...
Copy !req
22. it'll be Truniht,
the Secretary of Defense.
Copy !req
23. Be in a political show for
his sake? Count me out!
Copy !req
24. Secretary of Defense Job Truniht
Copy !req
25. What?
Copy !req
26. Commodore Yang Wenli is absent?
Copy !req
27. What's the meaning
of this, Chief?
Copy !req
28. He still hasn't recovered from the exhaustion or wounds he received at the Battle of Astate.
Copy !req
29. Oh? I didn't realize it
was such a serious wound.
Copy !req
30. That can't be, eh?
Copy !req
31. Please tell him Truniht
said to recuperate fully.
Copy !req
32. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
33. Fleet Admiral Sidney Sitolet
Copy !req
34. Well, then, Sir, we'll go
ahead and take our seats.
Copy !req
35. I didn't hear about Commodore Yang Wenli being hurt.
Copy !req
36. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
37. I heard it was
a mere scratch.
Copy !req
38. At any rate, the absence of
the Hero of Astate changes things.
Copy !req
39. Rewrite this at once!
Copy !req
40. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
41. Rear Admiral.
Copy !req
42. It is the honorable
Secretary of Defense's gracious wish.
Copy !req
43. Why don't you go
contact Yang at once?
Copy !req
44. What? Me?
Copy !req
45. Yes.
Copy !req
46. By the way, include
this message from me.
Copy !req
47. "Quit pretending to be sick,
and show your face at HQ, early."
Copy !req
48. Rear Admiral Alex Cazellnu
Copy !req
49. He hasn't changed since
he was at Officer's School.
Copy !req
50. I suppose we can't tell other people
about a scandal like this involving a hero.
Copy !req
51. You came to see me, eh?
You saw through my cover.
Copy !req
52. Well, for HQ Chief of Staff Sitolet, to say nothing of Mr. Truniht...
Copy !req
53. to be neglected by
the Hero of Astate.
Copy !req
54. Who's a hero?
Copy !req
55. The character who's
talking to me now.
Copy !req
56. Don't you
watch the news?
Copy !req
57. That's what all of
the media's saying.
Copy !req
58. I'm the commander
of a defeated army.
Copy !req
59. Do you know how many
people died in that battle?
Copy !req
60. Therefore, you're a hero.
Copy !req
61. It's to prevent the citizens from asking questions, isn't it?
Copy !req
62. If you hate being made a hero that much,
it's probably best that you're absent.
Copy !req
63. Indeed, just thinking about that man's tediously vulgar, agitating speeches makes me ill.
Copy !req
64. Good bye.
Copy !req
65. It seems Rear Admiral Cazellnu doesn't like the Secretary of Defense very much, either.
Copy !req
66. It's not bad taste to admire Truniht for his sheer nerve.
Copy !req
67. Well, then. Since I have no bad taste, can I get a cup of Ceylon tea?
Copy !req
68. OK.
Copy !req
69. With milk in it?
Copy !req
70. Brandy.
Copy !req
71. It's still morning.
Copy !req
72. Here.
Copy !req
73. After all, your tea's
the best, isn't it?
Copy !req
74. Yesterday in school, we were asked about our plans after next year.
Copy !req
75. I want to be
a soldier, but...
Copy !req
76. A soldier?
Copy !req
77. Yes. Because my late
father was a soldier, too.
Copy !req
78. There's no law that says a child has to pursue his parents' occupation.
Copy !req
79. My father was a merchant.
Copy !req
80. But he died in debt,
on the verge of bankruptcy.
Copy !req
81. But the military paid
my way through school.
Copy !req
82. If I don't join,
I have to pay them back.
Copy !req
83. I'll pay it.
Copy !req
84. Don't underestimate
your guardian.
Copy !req
85. I have that
much in savings.
Copy !req
86. I can't take that!
Copy !req
87. Don't be impertinent.
You're just like a kid.
Copy !req
88. Kids grow by
exploiting adults.
Copy !req
89. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
90. But...
Copy !req
91. What?
Copy !req
92. Do you want to be
a soldier that much?
Copy !req
93. Commodore...
Copy !req
94. do you hate
soldiers that much?
Copy !req
95. I do hate them, don't I.
Copy !req
96. In this war, I've come to
hate them more and more.
Copy !req
97. If there's anything I can do to wash my hands of this business soon.
Copy !req
98. I want to devote myself to
historical research, you see.
Copy !req
99. Well, there's no need
to rush into anything.
Copy !req
100. We'll talk again.
Copy !req
101. It's time, isn't it?
Copy !req
102. Oh, dear.
Copy !req
103. As a soldier, shall I at
least watch the broadcast?
Copy !req
104. Gathered citizens and soldiers!
Copy !req
105. What is the purpose of our having gathered in this place today?
Copy !req
106. It is to console the souls of the 1,500,000 departed who fell in the Astate Starzone.
Copy !req
107. They sacrificed their honorable lives
protecting the freedom of their motherland.
Copy !req
108. They were good spouses...
Copy !req
109. good parents...
Copy !req
110. good children...
Copy !req
111. good lovers.
Copy !req
112. They deserved to
have happy lives.
Copy !req
113. But they gave up that privilege and gave up their lives.
Copy !req
114. Citizens, I dare to ask!
Why did 1,500,000 soldiers die?
Copy !req
115. Because the chief executives'
planning directives were unwise.
Copy !req
116. There is only one answer.
Copy !req
117. They gave up their lives to protect the freedom of the motherland!
Copy !req
118. Do you suppose that this is worthy of a noble death?
Copy !req
119. My friends.
Here we must bear in mind!
Copy !req
120. The motherland and freedom;
these are things worth protecting!
Copy !req
121. This mighty motherland is free!
Copy !req
122. Friends, don't be
afraid of death!
Copy !req
123. We will fight for the sake
of our free motherland!
Copy !req
124. We must fight
for our motherland!
Copy !req
125. Long live the Alliance!
Copy !req
126. Long live the Republic!
Copy !req
127. Down with the Empire!
Copy !req
128. Long live the Alliance!
Copy !req
129. Long live the Republic!
Copy !req
130. Down with the Empire!
Copy !req
131. Long live the Alliance!
Copy !req
132. And so, in any age,
there are instigators.
Copy !req
133. Our weapon is the unified
will of all our citizens.
Copy !req
134. This is a free country.
Copy !req
135. And being a part of
a democratic Republic...
Copy !req
136. you have the freedom to oppose national policy.
Copy !req
137. Jessica Edwards
Copy !req
138. However!
Copy !req
139. If you citizens are people of good sense, you must understand...
Copy !req
140. that in order to advance
toward true freedom...
Copy !req
141. you must be one
with the nation!
Copy !req
142. Friends...
Copy !req
143. Jessica!
Copy !req
144. What do you
think you're doing?
Copy !req
145. Secretary of Defense,
I am Jessica Edwards.
Copy !req
146. I am the fiance of 6th Fleet
Staff Officer Jean Robert Lap...
Copy !req
147. who died in battle
at the Battle of Astate.
Copy !req
148. No.
Copy !req
149. I was his fiancé.
Copy !req
150. That's...
Copy !req
151. That's regrettable.
Copy !req
152. But...
Copy !req
153. You don't need
to console me.
Copy !req
154. Because you say that my fiancé achieved a noble death protecting the motherland.
Copy !req
155. I see?
Copy !req
156. Well, you are a person who must be called a model for the surviving women and children.
Copy !req
157. Tell us about it.
Copy !req
158. The human race doesn't know
what shame is, eh, Julian?
Copy !req
159. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
160. I only came to ask you one question, Secretary of Defense.
Copy !req
161. What kind of
question is it?
Copy !req
162. I hope it's a
question I can answer.
Copy !req
163. Where were you?
Copy !req
164. Huh?
Copy !req
165. What?
Copy !req
166. My fiancé went to battle...
Copy !req
167. in order to protect the motherland,
and now he's gone.
Copy !req
168. Secretary of Defense!
Copy !req
169. Where were you?
Copy !req
170. Where were you,
who glorify the war dead?
Copy !req
171. Miss...
Copy !req
172. Where is your family?
Copy !req
173. I offered my fiancé
as a sacrifice.
Copy !req
174. So where is your family, you who preach the necessity of citizens' sacrifice?
Copy !req
175. Are you practicing...
Copy !req
176. what you preach?
Copy !req
177. Guards, this woman has
lost her composure.
Copy !req
178. Take her into
another room!
Copy !req
179. Let me go!
Copy !req
180. Julian!
Copy !req
181. Get the car ready!
Copy !req
182. Y... yes!
Copy !req
183. Yes?
Copy !req
184. Ah, Commodore!
Copy !req
185. It's Commander Attenborough.
Copy !req
186. Eh?
Copy !req
187. Attenborough, didn't go to
the memorial service either?
Copy !req
188. I was also "injured".
Copy !req
189. Indeed.
Copy !req
190. Commander Dusty Attenborough
Copy !req
191. But that's not what I called about.
Copy !req
192. Jessica's in danger.
Copy !req
193. Even if Truniht
doesn't say anything...
Copy !req
194. that Patriotic Knight Corps
bunch won't be silent.
Copy !req
195. The Patriotic Knights Corps?
Copy !req
196. A group of
violent nationalists.
Copy !req
197. It's said that they're
Truniht's shadow army.
Copy !req
198. Yeah...
Copy !req
199. I'll go out
in my car.
Copy !req
200. Wait and I'll pick
you up on the way.
Copy !req
201. Thanks.
We'll be waiting.
Copy !req
202. Let go!
Copy !req
203. Regrettably...
Copy !req
204. grief invites madness.
Copy !req
205. However, we citizens of the Free Planets Alliance must not be defeated by grief.
Copy !req
206. We must commit
ourselves to sanity!
Copy !req
207. Victory in freedom!
Copy !req
208. The military band...
the national anthem!
Copy !req
209. Play the
national anthem!
Copy !req
210. Liberty stands for freedom...
Copy !req
211. oh hail the flag that set us free.
Copy !req
212. Standing righteous symbolic of strength...
Copy !req
213. our hopes for freedom to be.
Copy !req
214. My friends, not so far away...
Copy !req
215. rules will reunite hand in hand.
Copy !req
216. Oh hail! Liberty bell!
Copy !req
217. True freedom for all men.
Copy !req
218. I can walk by myself!
Copy !req
219. Shall I call a car?
Copy !req
220. I'm fine!
Copy !req
221. A free country...
Copy !req
222. The Free Planets Alliance...
Copy !req
223. Patriotic Knight Corps
Copy !req
224. I cannot help but sympathize
with your situation.
Copy !req
225. However, to us of the PKC,
your behavior at the ceremony...
Copy !req
226. was an act of treason against the
nation and, as such, must be purged.
Copy !req
227. Jessica! Hurry!
Copy !req
228. That car just now?
Copy !req
229. It's a Capital Traffic
Department car, but...
Copy !req
230. the person currently
using the car is...
Copy !req
231. . Alliance Force Commander,
Dusty Attenborough.
Copy !req
232. Commander Attenborough?
Copy !req
233. He's a friend of
Yang Wenli's, isn't he?
Copy !req
234. Now that you mention Yang...
Copy !req
235. that woman's fiancé,
Captain Lap, was Yang's friend.
Copy !req
236. Yang Wenli seems to be a
dangerous element, doesn't he?
Copy !req
237. Let's go.
Copy !req
238. Yang...
Copy !req
239. Huh?
Copy !req
240. I suppose you think
I'm a bitch, don't you?
Copy !req
241. Why?
Copy !req
242. Shouting like that in
front of all those people...
Copy !req
243. although most of the bereaved families are silently enduring their grief.
Copy !req
244. No, that's not true.
Copy !req
245. It was something
that needed to be said.
Copy !req
246. That's for sure.
Copy !req
247. They're coming out to
meet us in front of the hotel.
Copy !req
248. What should we do?
Copy !req
249. They must have traced
the car's license plate.
Copy !req
250. They probably found
out about me.
Copy !req
251. For now, we'll go
to my residence.
Copy !req
252. It's in the high-ranking
officers' residential district.
Copy !req
253. They probably won't
try anything stupid.
Copy !req
254. Commodore.
Strange people are...
Copy !req
255. What?
Copy !req
256. That's the PKC, isn't it?
Copy !req
257. Is there, "The freedom to break into other people's homes" in the Alliance constitution?
Copy !req
258. Commodore Yang!
Copy !req
259. Yeah, yeah...
Copy !req
260. We are the PKC,
who truly love our country!
Copy !req
261. We accuse you!
Copy !req
262. Have you
become conceited?
Copy !req
263. Perhaps you recall when you acted to demoralize the united will of the motherland!
Copy !req
264. What a thing to say?
Copy !req
265. With all this uproar, why don't
the neighbors come out?
Copy !req
266. Who's behind the PKC?
Everybody knows.
Copy !req
267. The freedom to
"not get involved..."
Copy !req
268. is perhaps the most valued
freedom we have in this country.
Copy !req
269. Get down!
Copy !req
270. Behave!
Copy !req
271. Building demolition grenades?
Copy !req
272. This is war.
Copy !req
273. Julian, get me
the terminal.
Copy !req
274. Okay!
Copy !req
275. Which one is the
fire hydrant switch?
Copy !req
276. Don't hesitate!
Copy !req
277. Fire outbreak at
#24 Silverbridge Street.
Copy !req
278. Emergency dispatch!
Copy !req
279. Dammit!
Copy !req
280. We've attracted
too much attention.
Copy !req
281. Pull out!
Copy !req
282. They showed up pretty
quickly, didn't they?
Copy !req
283. If it's only a fire,
it's a different story, isn't it?
Copy !req
284. If they ignore it,
they'll also get burned.
Copy !req
285. Maybe nobody really wants to see the Alliance burn up, too.
Copy !req
286. But, as it stands, those guys probably won't be silenced.
Copy !req
287. Yeah.
Copy !req
288. I want you to play taxi
driver one more time, but...
Copy !req
289. Where to?
Copy !req
290. To Truniht's house.
Copy !req
291. You're healthier than I expected, aren't you, Commodore?
Copy !req
292. By depending on individual freedom,
one can't help but become well, I guess.
Copy !req
293. Individual freedom, eh?
Copy !req
294. That's a serious matter.
Copy !req
295. Want one?
Copy !req
296. No.
Copy !req
297. Well, tell me what you want...
Copy !req
298. Hero of Astate.
Copy !req
299. Guarantee Jessica Edwards' safety.
Copy !req
300. Jessica Edwards?
Copy !req
301. That unfortunate young woman?
Copy !req
302. What's happened to her?
Copy !req
303. She's being pursued by the PKC.
Copy !req
304. But even though I'm
the Secretary of Defense...
Copy !req
305. I can't order a bunch
like that to stop.
Copy !req
306. I suppose not...
Copy !req
307. Very well.
Copy !req
308. As a favor for the
Hero of Astate himself...
Copy !req
309. I'll do something.
Copy !req
310. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
311. Well, now if
you'll excuse me.
Copy !req
312. Since the media is waiting...
Copy !req
313. Media?
Copy !req
314. It will probably become a beautiful story of yours, Mr. Secretary.
Copy !req
315. Well, then...
Copy !req
316. Commodore Yang Wenli.
Copy !req
317. I have expectations of you.
Copy !req
318. Sorry to bother you.
Copy !req
319. No, it's fine.
Copy !req
320. Knowing how to handle heroes is also a talent of a nation's leader.
Copy !req
321. That's why it
worked out for the best.
Copy !req
322. That kind of woman
is of no account.
Copy !req
323. I'm stumped.
Copy !req
324. To be guaranteed safety by pulling Truniht's strings, of all things.
Copy !req
325. There are still just causes left in this country, aren't there?
Copy !req
326. It's just on
that pretext.
Copy !req
327. But...
Copy !req
328. because of this, war will probably become unstoppable again.
Copy !req
329. Well, sit down.
Copy !req
330. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
331. By the way,
Copy !req
332. Rear Admiral Yang...
Copy !req
333. A promotion?
Copy !req
334. Yes.
Copy !req
335. And you'll be reassigned. I want you to assume the office of Commander of the 13th Fleet.
Copy !req
336. Isn't fleet commander
a post for a Vice Admiral?
Copy !req
337. It's a fleet that supplements recruits with the troops who survived at Astate.
Copy !req
338. 6,400 ships,
about 700,000 personnel.
Copy !req
339. It's about half the
usual number, you see.
Copy !req
340. Its first duty will be the
capture of Iserlohn Fortress.
Copy !req
341. Take out Iserlohn Fortress,
with a hodgepodge half fleet?
Copy !req
342. That's right.
Copy !req
343. Do you think
it's possible?
Copy !req
344. If you can't do it...
Copy !req
345. nobody can.
Copy !req
346. Is there no chance
of winning?
Copy !req
347. If you succeed in this, no matter how the Secretary of Defense feels about you...
Copy !req
348. he can't continue
to ignore your talent.
Copy !req
349. I'll do what little I can.
Copy !req
350. Thanks for bringing me.
Copy !req
351. Not at all.
Copy !req
352. Congratulations...
Copy !req
353. on being promoted.
Copy !req
354. Jean Robert was always saying...
Copy !req
355. that you were the
pride of your classmates.
Copy !req
356. In the end,
I'm a soldier.
Copy !req
357. True...
Copy !req
358. Thanks for everything.
Copy !req
359. Probably... Surely...
I won't forget... My whole life...
Copy !req
360. Thank you.
Copy !req
361. Well, 'bye.
Copy !req
362. Um...
Copy !req
363. Your Excellency Yang Wenli?
Copy !req
364. Yes, I am.
Copy !req
365. I am Meia.
Copy !req
366. Both my husband and my son
achieved a glorious death in battle...
Copy !req
367. fighting in
the Alliance Forces.
Copy !req
368. Knowing your important role,
I am deeply moved, but...
Copy !req
369. my grandson says he wants
to be a soldier, too.
Copy !req
370. If you, a hero, would shake his hand,
I think it would be an incentive.
Copy !req
371. What?
Copy !req
372. Do you think you can become
a brave soldier like that?
Copy !req
373. Mrs. Meia...
Copy !req
374. when that child grows up,
I think a peaceful age will arrive.
Copy !req
375. There will probably be no need to force him to be a soldier.
Copy !req
376. No matter whether
a person likes it or not...
Copy !req
377. the battle to
capture Iserlohn Fortress...
Copy !req
378. which could decide the fate of the Empire and the Alliance was growing near.
