Copy !req
5. After defeating the 11th Fleet, Admiral Yang
gathered support all over the Alliance.
Copy !req
6. The National Salvation Military Council
became completely isolated on Heinessen.
Copy !req
7. Retired veterans and units
are rallying to our cause.
Copy !req
8. Among them are many who were
sympathetic to the coup d'etat at the start.
Copy !req
9. Their opportunism
is amazing, isn't it?
Copy !req
10. That's no good.
Copy !req
11. We can't place trust in hardliners
who change their allegiance.
Copy !req
12. Because, on the whole, the military produces
like minded people with firm beliefs.
Copy !req
13. Now they are in
control of Heinessen.
Copy !req
14. The members of the National Salvation Military
Council believe in their own righteousness...
Copy !req
15. and don't think anybody
can defeat them.
Copy !req
16. Planet Heinessen
Copy !req
17. Artemis Necklace
Copy !req
18. Not yet...
Copy !req
19. We still have the automatic
defense system, the "Artemis Necklace."
Copy !req
20. As long as we have that,
even Yang Wenli can't capture Heinessen.
Copy !req
21. We aren't beaten yet.
Copy !req
22. We haven't won yet.
Copy !req
23. Are you worried about
the "Artemis Necklace" ?
Copy !req
24. There's that, too.
Copy !req
25. Lieutenant, I'll retire
to my quarters.
Copy !req
26. Please have Commander
Bagdashu meet me there.
Copy !req
27. On the way to Heinessen, we'll stop
by the 6th planet, Shilyunagal.
Copy !req
28. Until then,
I'll leave matters to you.
Copy !req
29. The truth is, the "Artemis Necklace"
is not that big a problem.
Copy !req
30. It just proves you can't win
a war by relying on hardware.
Copy !req
31. So you don't plan to
attack the Necklace?
Copy !req
32. No, I'll have to
destroy the Necklace.
Copy !req
33. The gang who instigated
the coup d'etat...
Copy !req
34. probably think the "Artemis Necklace"
is their last hope.
Copy !req
35. Therefore, by destroying it...
Copy !req
36. we give them a psychological
shock to induce them to surrender.
Copy !req
37. Since the Necklace is unmanned,
destroying it won't cause any casualties.
Copy !req
38. Right.
Copy !req
39. But there are more than a
billion civilians on Heinessen.
Copy !req
40. Hostages...?
Copy !req
41. I don't want to think that
Admiral Greenhill would go that far.
Copy !req
42. But to prepare for the worst,
I want Bagdashu to work for me.
Copy !req
43. Julian, wait here.
Copy !req
44. Come in, Commander.
Copy !req
45. Well, now. At last I can
put you to good use.
Copy !req
46. Anything.
Copy !req
47. If you order it,
I'll even infiltrate Heinessen.
Copy !req
48. Then you'd seek refuge
under Admiral Greenhill?
Copy !req
49. Don't embarrass me.
Copy !req
50. Just kidding.
Copy !req
51. The truth is,
I want you to testify.
Copy !req
52. Testify...?
To what?
Copy !req
53. That the coup d'etat by the
National Salvation Military Council...
Copy !req
54. was instigated by Marquis
Reinhard von Lohengramm of the Empire.
Copy !req
55. You embarrass me again.
Copy !req
56. That's a preposterous accusation.
Copy !req
57. Honestly, I don't much
care to make such charges.
Copy !req
58. If Lt. Greenhill hears of it
somehow, won't she be angry?
Copy !req
59. It's the truth, though.
Copy !req
60. There's no material evidence yet,
but it's not a fabrication.
Copy !req
61. Well, it's not surprising
you don't believe it.
Copy !req
62. Even so, I will
ask you to testify.
Copy !req
63. Understood.
Copy !req
64. At any rate,
I'm a convert.
Copy !req
65. I'll be of whatever
help I can to you.
Copy !req
66. Attention, citizens of
the Free Planets Alliance.
Copy !req
67. I'm Commander Bagdashu, a
participant in the NSMC's coup d'etat.
Copy !req
68. I must reveal to
you an awful secret.
Copy !req
69. Damn that Bagdashu!
Copy !req
70. Not only did he fail
to assassinate Yang...
Copy !req
71. I participated in the coup d'etat...
Copy !req
72. but now he's
turned against us!
Copy !req
73. believing it motivated by righteousness
and concern for the nation.
Copy !req
74. But that wasn't the case.
Copy !req
75. By now, it is
common knowledge...
Copy !req
76. that the largest civil wars in history have taken place not just here, but in the Galactic Empire.
Copy !req
77. Do you think this
is a coincidence?
Copy !req
78. It is not!
Copy !req
79. This coup d'etat was instigated as a plan of Marquis Reinhard von Lohengramm's...
Copy !req
80. who is now preoccupied with his
own civil war in the Galactic Empire.
Copy !req
81. He plotted to divide us
in order to prevent...
Copy !req
82. Planet Shilyunagal
Copy !req
83. our Alliance Fleet from taking advantage of the current civil war that has split the Empire.
Copy !req
84. Knowing that to be true, I knew that
this military revolt was no more than...
Copy !req
85. a reckless act by a dissatisfied
but ambitious military faction...
Copy !req
86. controlled by the
ambitions of the Empire.
Copy !req
87. My friends!
Copy !req
88. There is no righteousness
in your military revolt.
Copy !req
89. Our nation must bring these useless
disruptions to an end, and begin reunification.
Copy !req
90. Damn that Bagdashu!
Copy !req
91. The shameless traitor!
Copy !req
92. He was supposed to kill Yang,
but instead he's become his tool!
Copy !req
93. It seems I've underestimated
Yang Wenli's abilities.
Copy !req
94. By defeating the 11th Fleet and suppressing
the other rebellions he's left us isolated.
Copy !req
95. His talent far exceeds my expectations,
and I thought I knew him well.
Copy !req
96. But to use such political propaganda,
suggesting we're agents of the Empire...
Copy !req
97. By spreading such clever lies, he
proves himself still more formidable.
Copy !req
98. Admiral Greenhill...
Copy !req
99. you're wrong,
very wrong.
Copy !req
100. Yang is certainly
a formidable foe.
Copy !req
101. But he's not formidable
for the reason you think.
Copy !req
102. What?
Copy !req
103. He's formidable because he's the
one who figured out the truth.
Copy !req
104. Truth...?
Copy !req
105. Are you implying what
Yang said was true?
Copy !req
106. Here. This is the plan Marquis Lohengramm
himself gave me for this coup d'etat.
Copy !req
107. Why?
Copy !req
108. Admiral Lynch, why would you go
along with a scheme like this?
Copy !req
109. Were you promised a position as
Admiral in the Imperial Fleet?
Copy !req
110. There was that, too.
Copy !req
111. But I don't really
care about that.
Copy !req
112. It didn't much matter who...
Copy !req
113. but I wanted to put inexcusable
shame on unthinking bastards...
Copy !req
114. who believe in their
own self-righteousness.
Copy !req
115. What do you think
of that, Greenhill?
Copy !req
116. Your National Salvation Military
Council are just dupes.
Copy !req
117. How does it feel to discover yourself a
mere tool of a brat from the Empire?
Copy !req
118. How does it feel to know what you
believed was right, backfired horribly?
Copy !req
119. It's an emergency!
Copy !req
120. The Yang Fleet
is approaching!
Copy !req
121. What?
Copy !req
122. 300 years ago...
Copy !req
123. the founders of the Free Planets
Alliance, Ale Heinessen and his comrades...
Copy !req
124. escaped the Empire in
huge spaceships of ice.
Copy !req
125. This plan is modeled on the
tradition of Ale Heinessen.
Copy !req
126. We've carved out large lumps of ice and
outfitted them with Bussard ramjets.
Copy !req
127. Under continuous acceleration...
Copy !req
128. absorbing interplanetary matter and
converting it to energy for propulsion...
Copy !req
129. they'll approach
the speed of light.
Copy !req
130. Whereupon, according to the theory of
relativity, their mass will increase rapidly.
Copy !req
131. If we use the right entry angle
and throw them at the Necklace...
Copy !req
132. it should be possible
to destroy it all at once...
Copy !req
133. without affecting the
planet or harming us.
Copy !req
134. Any questions?
Copy !req
135. Does it matter if we destroy
all 12 Necklace elements?
Copy !req
136. It doesn't matter.
Let's demolish it all.
Copy !req
137. Missiles approaching...
Copy !req
138. It's ice!
Huge chunks of ice!
Copy !req
139. Direct hits at
near lightspeed!
Copy !req
140. Wiped out!
Copy !req
141. The Artemis Necklace...
Gone... just like that...
Copy !req
142. It's all over.
Copy !req
143. Our military
revolt has failed.
Copy !req
144. We're beaten.
Copy !req
145. No, it's not over yet!
Copy !req
146. We have hostages.
Copy !req
147. Both the Joint Operations Chief and
Space Fleet Commander in Chief...
Copy !req
148. indeed, all one billion
citizens on Heinessen!
Copy !req
149. Stop it.
Copy !req
150. Further resistance will only
worsen the wounds to the nation.
Copy !req
151. It's already finished.
Copy !req
152. Shall we not face
the end like men?
Copy !req
153. Then, what will we do now?
Copy !req
154. Surrender and stand trial?
Copy !req
155. Those who want to do that should do so.
I will choose another road.
Copy !req
156. However, before that,
there is something we must do.
Copy !req
157. We must not leave any evidence that our
revolt was instigated by Marquis Lohengramm.
Copy !req
158. Admiral Lynch...
Copy !req
159. people often pick on trifling matters.
And, sometimes people make mistakes.
Copy !req
160. I didn't believe you were really the bastard
you were said to be 9 years ago at El Facil.
Copy !req
161. However, I thought you wanted
a chance to restore your honor!
Copy !req
162. I am a man very much like
the public rumors say.
Copy !req
163. Even knowing that, you're a poor
judge of character, aren't you?
Copy !req
164. Fools...
Copy !req
165. I've saved Greenhill's honor!
Copy !req
166. Honor?
How worthless...
Copy !req
167. Dispose of this corpse!
Copy !req
168. Burn the files!
Copy !req
169. Dispose of anything that
might look incriminating!
Copy !req
170. Yang has deployed his fleet
outside satellite orbit.
Copy !req
171. They've begun
landing operations.
Copy !req
172. What should we do?
Copy !req
173. Open a comm link.
Copy !req
174. I will speak
with Admiral Yang.
Copy !req
175. I am speaking as acting Chairman of
the National Salvation Military Council.
Copy !req
176. Recognizing our own defeat,
we have abandoned futile resistance.
Copy !req
177. Further attacks
are unnecessary.
Copy !req
178. That's good.
But...
Copy !req
179. what happened to
Chairman Greenhill?
Copy !req
180. The Admiral...
took his own life.
Copy !req
181. It was a noble death.
Copy !req
182. Admiral Yang...
Copy !req
183. we stood for overthrowing the
despotic rule of the Galactic Empire.
Copy !req
184. You falsely accused us as
being agents of the Empire...
Copy !req
185. but you will be remembered as one who has
lent aid to the Empire's continuing despotism!
Copy !req
186. I think despots are any statesmen
not chosen by the people...
Copy !req
187. who rule by means of force,
and steal the peoples' freedoms.
Copy !req
188. This is what you're
doing now on Heinessen.
Copy !req
189. You are despots.
Isn't that so?
Copy !req
190. You're wrong!
Copy !req
191. We weren't seeking
personal power!
Copy !req
192. There was no other way to
end the political corruption!
Copy !req
193. Political corruption isn't
just politicians taking bribes.
Copy !req
194. That is just the corruption
of individual politicians.
Copy !req
195. Political corruption means that people aren't
free to criticize politicians for taking bribes.
Copy !req
196. You banned free speech.
Copy !req
197. For that alone,
you aren't fit to criticize...
Copy !req
198. the despotic Imperial government
or Alliance politics.
Copy !req
199. Don't you see?
Copy !req
200. No... At least we were risking our
lives to build a better political system.
Copy !req
201. We're not politicians like Truniht, who
seek only personal gain and influence.
Copy !req
202. We can't be
criticized for that!
Copy !req
203. Justice was on our side!
Copy !req
204. We just didn't have
enough efficiency, or luck!
Copy !req
205. Captain Evans...
Copy !req
206. Admiral Yang,
I beg of you, at least...
Copy !req
207. Don't let our
deaths be in vain!
Copy !req
208. Take care of the future of
our country... our Alliance.
Copy !req
209. Admiral Greenhill was
hoping for that, too.
Copy !req
210. Farewell!
Copy !req
211. He means to die,
doesn't he?
Copy !req
212. He didn't change his
opinions right to the end.
Copy !req
213. Different people have different
opinions on what is right.
Copy !req
214. General Schenkopp, take command
of the landing squadron.
Copy !req
215. I'll go down afterwards.
Copy !req
216. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
217. Lieutenant Greenhill...
Copy !req
218. Can I have one...
no, just two hours?
Copy !req
219. I know I can
compose myself, but...
Copy !req
220. I can't do
it just yet.
Copy !req
221. So...
Copy !req
222. Lieutenant... what can I say?
Don't lose heart.
Copy !req
223. The National Salvation Military
Council has surrendered.
Copy !req
224. The coup d'etat
has ended in failure.
Copy !req
225. Fair and generous treatment
is offered to soldiers.
Copy !req
226. As promised by
Admiral Yang Wenli.
Copy !req
227. Do not waste more valuable human
lives in useless resistance.
Copy !req
228. Rejoin your respective regiments,
and await further orders.
Copy !req
229. Wait.
Copy !req
230. The remains of Admiral
Greenhill and Captain Evans.
Copy !req
231. Have them autopsied.
Copy !req
232. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
233. I'm so ashamed.
Copy !req
234. Even though you took the
trouble to warn me beforehand...
Copy !req
235. I was absolutely
no help at all.
Copy !req
236. Not at all.
Copy !req
237. It was my lateness that
caused all the trouble.
Copy !req
238. No. Thanks to you I spent
every day taking afternoon naps.
Copy !req
239. It was tedious, but compared to you,
I had no problems at all.
Copy !req
240. In the meantime,
is there anything you need?
Copy !req
241. Oh, yes there is. What I'd
like is a glass of whiskey.
Copy !req
242. Let's get him a drink.
Copy !req
243. Well, what happened
to Admiral Greenhill?
Copy !req
244. He died.
Copy !req
245. I see.
Copy !req
246. And the old man
survives again?
Copy !req
247. You!
Copy !req
248. You're...
Copy !req
249. You should know who I am.
Copy !req
250. I'm the head
of the government.
Copy !req
251. You're Julian Minci, right?
Copy !req
252. Chairman Job Truniht
Copy !req
253. I hear you're the promising
young ward of Admiral Yang.
Copy !req
254. These are the members of
the Earth Church who hid me.
Copy !req
255. While hidden in
their underground church...
Copy !req
256. I was working secretly to
overthrow the military junta.
Copy !req
257. So please guide us to
wherever Admiral Yang is.
Copy !req
258. He'll be glad to
learn that I'm safe.
Copy !req
259. And so will all
the citizens, too.
Copy !req
260. Hey, don't treat
me like an invalid.
Copy !req
261. I can walk
fine by myself.
Copy !req
262. Chairman Truniht?
Copy !req
263. Oh dear. Are we going
from bad to worse?
Copy !req
264. At any rate, he's
waiting over there.
Copy !req
265. Want to run away?
Copy !req
266. I guess I can't do that.
Copy !req
267. Truniht and the Earth Cult?
Copy !req
268. Who is using whom?
Copy !req
269. No, Captain Bay, under my secret orders,
infiltrated the coup d'etat on Heinessen.
Copy !req
270. He kept me informed of
their movements in detail.
Copy !req
271. Hey, it's Miracle Yang!
Copy !req
272. Why me with that bastard
Truniht of all people?
Copy !req
273. To preserve that
scoundrel's power...
Copy !req
274. I had to fight Admiral Greenhill,
who was like my own father.
Copy !req
275. Not to mention Jessica...
Dammit.
Copy !req
276. Admiral!
Copy !req
277. It's urgent!
Copy !req
278. What are you
shouting about?
Copy !req
279. There's nothing that could possibly
be worth getting that excited about.
Copy !req
280. But you know of
Admiral Merkatz, don't you?
Copy !req
281. Yeah. He's a famous
Imperial Commander.
Copy !req
282. Not as impressive
as Marquis Lohengramm, perhaps...
Copy !req
283. but as a veteran,
he uses troops prudently.
Copy !req
284. He's also popular.
Copy !req
285. So, what about him?
Copy !req
286. That same famous
Imperial Commander...
Copy !req
287. has come seeking refuge!
Copy !req
288. He's come to you
for help, Admiral Yang!
Copy !req
289. There's an urgent
message from Iserlohn!
Copy !req
290. What?
Copy !req
291. If you please,
hand over your weapons.
Copy !req
292. That's rude!
Copy !req
293. Admiral Merkatz
is not a prisoner!
Copy !req
294. He's come seeking refuge
of his own free will!
Copy !req
295. It should be common courtesy
to treat him like a guest!
Copy !req
296. Lt. Commander Schneider...
Copy !req
297. No. My mistake.
Copy !req
298. Please keep it.
Copy !req
299. Do you think
we can trust him?
Copy !req
300. Did you notice if Admiral
Merkatz brought his family?
Copy !req
301. No, his family is still
living in the empire.
Copy !req
302. I see.
Good, then.
Copy !req
303. It's not good!
Copy !req
304. If that's so, it's as if
they were taken hostage.
Copy !req
305. No. If Admiral Merkatz
was trying to deceive us...
Copy !req
306. he probably wouldn't do
so leaving his family behind.
Copy !req
307. As a precaution, he'd probably
bring a fake family with him.
Copy !req
308. Wouldn't that be
the situation?
Copy !req
309. Well, I suppose it
would be like that.
Copy !req
310. To someone like Admiral Merkatz,
a genuine warrior...
Copy !req
311. such plots are
probably beneath him.
Copy !req
312. I think we
should trust him.
Copy !req
313. Clearly more than you?
Copy !req
314. Such a bad joke.
Copy !req
315. I'm not joking.
Copy !req
316. I will believe
Admiral Merkatz.
Copy !req
317. So, to the best of my ability,
I'll defend his rights.
Copy !req
318. If an Imperial Fleet commander
says he'll trust me...
Copy !req
319. I think I must
reward that.
Copy !req
320. Do you insist
on doing so?
Copy !req
321. I'm powerless
against flattery.
Copy !req
322. Admiral Cazellnu, I want to
speak with Admiral Merkatz.
Copy !req
323. Would you please
swap places?
Copy !req
324. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
325. Admiral Merkatz,
I presume?
Copy !req
326. I'm Yang Wenli.
Copy !req
327. Pleased to meet you.
Copy !req
328. I must turn myself in to
Your Excellency's care.
Copy !req
329. For myself, and my subordinate,
at least, I ask leniency.
Copy !req
330. It seems you
have loyal subordinates.
Copy !req
331. At any rate, Yang Wenli
will take charge of you.
Copy !req
332. Please don't worry.
Copy !req
333. Admiral, these need to
be signed before morning.
Copy !req
334. Right.
Copy !req
335. If you're concerned
about me, I'm fine.
Copy !req
336. There are so many
things to do now.
Copy !req
337. Admiral...
Copy !req
338. Are you sure about the
family of Admiral Merkatz?
Copy !req
339. Wha...? Yeah, the Empire's civil
war is probably over by now.
Copy !req
340. So Marquis Reinhard von Lohengramm will be
able to grasp complete power in the Empire.
Copy !req
341. It's not like him
to try a cheap trick.
Copy !req
342. He'll come to destroy
us with great dignity.
Copy !req
343. Iserlohn will become
a battlefield soon, then?
Copy !req
344. Can there be any doubt?
Copy !req
345. No doubt he's thinking how to attack
it with dreadful grandeur.
Copy !req
346. Marquis Reinhard von Lohengramm...
Copy !req
347. So ended the greatest civil war since the
founding of the Free Planets Alliance.
Copy !req
348. For many, it was only a battle
to lose their loved ones.
Copy !req
349. Victory for Whom?
Copy !req
350. End Theme
Copy !req
351. Ogura Kei
Copy !req
352. People are hoarding up...
Copy !req
353. Tomiyama Kei
Sakakibara Yoshiko
Sasaki Nozomu
Masamune Issei
Hirose Masashi
Copy !req
354. wonderfully hot tears in their hearts.
Copy !req
355. Tomita Kosei
Aono Takeshi
Kamiya Akira
Nanba Keiichi
Hazama Michio
Yamada Keaton
Nakao Ryusei
Copy !req
356. The heavily futile war...
Copy !req
357. Naya Goro
Meguro Yuichi
Ishizuka Unsho
Ikemizu Michihiro
Copy !req
358. obstructs the road you'll go on.
Copy !req
359. Yara Yuusaku
Copy !req
360. Don't kill your dreams, follow your dreams.
