3. OF THE
Copy !req
4. GALACTIC HEROES
Copy !req
5. In every age,
Copy !req
6. in every place,
Copy !req
7. the deeds of men
Copy !req
8. remain the same.
Copy !req
9. It's a stately formation.
Copy !req
10. Its azimuth is good,
its depth is good...
Copy !req
11. It's splendid.
Copy !req
12. It means they don't skimp,
even for diversionary operations.
Copy !req
13. How will you
cope with it?
Copy !req
14. We can't move carelessly.
Copy !req
15. The enemy's waiting
for us to move.
Copy !req
16. It doesn't even tremble.
Copy !req
17. No reason it should.
Copy !req
18. But part of our duty this
time is to do things gaudily.
Copy !req
19. Shall we put on
a dazzling show?
Copy !req
20. Send to Admiral Lutz.
Copy !req
21. Take a half-enveloping formation
according to the prearranged plan.
Copy !req
22. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
23. The fleet can
launch any time.
Copy !req
24. Stay and wait
where you are.
Copy !req
25. But...
Copy !req
26. We've already been
delayed by the enemy.
Copy !req
27. I want a little
time to observe them.
Copy !req
28. Admiral.
Copy !req
29. Part of the Imperial Fleet is deploying at the
very edge of the main gun's firing range.
Copy !req
30. It's obvious from the enemy's movements that
they're taking a half-enveloping formation.
Copy !req
31. If we allow it, they could unexpectedly stick
to the guns' dead angle from the front.
Copy !req
32. It's unavoidable.
Copy !req
33. Get me Rear Admiral Fischer.
Copy !req
34. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
35. I can't move from here.
Copy !req
36. The two of you cooperate, and stop
the enemy's movements for me.
Copy !req
37. Roger!
Copy !req
38. The enemy fleet's
coming out!
Copy !req
39. Now!
All ships, charge!
Copy !req
40. Damn!
Copy !req
41. Enemy ship approaching!
Copy !req
42. Fire main guns!
Copy !req
43. Please wait!
It's too close!
Copy !req
44. There are friendlies
in our firing arc!
Copy !req
45. Break off the attack!
Copy !req
46. Concentrate on avoiding collision!
Copy !req
47. Admiral!
Copy !req
48. This was the
enemy's intention?
Copy !req
49. This will allow the enemy to get close without
us being able to use the Thor Hammer!
Copy !req
50. They aren't too shabby.
Copy !req
51. Admiral...
Copy !req
52. The enemy's at an advantage,
in a situation like this...
Copy !req
53. so how can I take advantage
of that to make a crack?
Copy !req
54. Admiral...
Copy !req
55. Now then, how will
the enemy come out?
Copy !req
56. If they can't use
the fortress' main gun...
Copy !req
57. they'll have to send
out reinforcements.
Copy !req
58. If they do, we'll just send
in our reinforcements.
Copy !req
59. If we carry on a war
of attrition like that...
Copy !req
60. it won't be
the extreme summit.
Copy !req
61. But the enemy is a man
called "the Magician."
Copy !req
62. He'll probably come
trying something.
Copy !req
63. Battleship Oxiana destroyed!
Copy !req
64. Battleship Lubljana,
communications cut off!
Copy !req
65. Hold out, somehow!
Copy !req
66. Reinforcements are coming
out of the fortress!
Copy !req
67. He's come?
Copy !req
68. But if it becomes a war of
attrition, will it be alright?
Copy !req
69. Enemy reinforcements
have come out.
Copy !req
70. Good. We'll send in
Lennenkanpt's fleet, too.
Copy !req
71. Wait.
What's that?
Copy !req
72. Confirm ship type!
Copy !req
73. Ship type collated.
Copy !req
74. Battleship Hyperion!
Copy !req
75. The Hyperion, is it?
Copy !req
76. Isn't that Yang Wenli's flagship?
Copy !req
77. I'd heard he
was resourceful.
Copy !req
78. But unexpectedly, he's acting like a fierce
commander at the head of the formation.
Copy !req
79. Good.
Copy !req
80. All ships, charge!
Copy !req
81. Your target...
Copy !req
82. Enemy battleship Hyperion.
Copy !req
83. Your Excellency!
Copy !req
84. If we defeat Yang Wenli, the
war situation will reverse.
Copy !req
85. We'd be no match if he'd stayed inside
the fortress, but if it's a fleet battle...
Copy !req
86. Don't let this
chance escape!
Copy !req
87. All ships, maximum battle speed!
Copy !req
88. Twenty seconds until
effective firing range.
Copy !req
89. Good.
Open all gun ports!
Copy !req
90. Enemy ship,
rapidly approaching!
Copy !req
91. What?
Copy !req
92. Trajectory angle,
minus fifty degrees!
Copy !req
93. From one o'clock!
Copy !req
94. What happened?
Copy !req
95. It's the enemy!
Copy !req
96. An enemy assault ship has made
contact with the ship's hull!
Copy !req
97. Intruder alert!
Copy !req
98. Intruder alert!
Copy !req
99. Intruder alert!
Copy !req
100. Take emergency counterattack measures!
Prepare for hand-to-hand combat!
Copy !req
101. I've been beaten. And taken
in by a trick like this...
Copy !req
102. Your Excellency, I'll take
command of the counterattack.
Copy !req
103. As a precaution, please put on an
armored suit, Your Excellency!
Copy !req
104. Right.
Copy !req
105. Never mind the small fry!
Our objective is the enemy commander!
Copy !req
106. Look for the bridge!
Copy !req
107. They appear to have
succeeded in breaking in.
Copy !req
108. Reuental is a
first-class commander.
Copy !req
109. To trip him up, this kind of second-rate
trick is rather more effective.
Copy !req
110. If we can capture or kill the enemy
commander like this, it's for the best.
Copy !req
111. Well, even if that doesn't happen, we'll
create a chance for our fleet to withdraw.
Copy !req
112. Yeah.
Copy !req
113. Remember, don't let those
bastards leave the ship alive!
Copy !req
114. We'll attack them
from two sides!
Copy !req
115. General!
Copy !req
116. What the...?
Copy !req
117. Who're you?
Copy !req
118. Admiral Reuental?
Copy !req
119. Yes.
Copy !req
120. Alliance hunting dog?
Copy !req
121. I'm Walter von Schenkopp.
Copy !req
122. I'll have you remember that for
the short time until you die!
Copy !req
123. General Schenkopp!
Copy !req
124. Your Excellency,
are you alright?
Copy !req
125. Lintz, pull out!
Copy !req
126. Yes, sir!
Copy !req
127. Don't let them escape!
Copy !req
128. After them!
Copy !req
129. After them!
Don't let them escape!
Copy !req
130. Your Excellency,
are you hurt?
Copy !req
131. I've acted out
a ridiculous farce.
Copy !req
132. For a person who's a fleet commander
to engage in hand-to-hand combat...
Copy !req
133. So they're the
notorious "Rosenritter?"
Copy !req
134. Yes, it seems so.
Copy !req
135. Interrupt the battle
and withdraw.
Copy !req
136. I was too eager for success, and ended
up going along with the enemy's pace.
Copy !req
137. And it's a story of the timing being off to allow
a land-battle regiment to invade the flagship.
Copy !req
138. I have no excuse.
Copy !req
139. Yes, but it's not particularly
your responsibility.
Copy !req
140. I got too hot.
Copy !req
141. I'll cool off a
little and start anew.
Copy !req
142. Sir!
Copy !req
143. Enemy fleet seems
to be retreating.
Copy !req
144. Attenborough.
Copy !req
145. Go ahead.
Copy !req
146. How about it?
Copy !req
147. Can you follow up the enemy's retreat,
and reverse to pursue and attack?
Copy !req
148. Not likely. There aren't
any openings to punch through.
Copy !req
149. I see.
Copy !req
150. It can't be helped, can it.
Copy !req
151. Don't pursue them closely,
and return to the fortress.
Copy !req
152. Roger!
Copy !req
153. Admiral, Brig. General
Schenkopp has returned.
Copy !req
154. I was this close, but
the big one got away.
Copy !req
155. But we succeeded in invading the flagship,
so it's not like we scored zero points.
Copy !req
156. That was regrettable.
Copy !req
157. Indeed, maybe that
side thinks so, too.
Copy !req
158. He was pretty skilled.
He parried my attacks many times.
Copy !req
159. You mean you failed
to change history?
Copy !req
160. So the fleet battle
ended in a tie?
Copy !req
161. Yeah.
Copy !req
162. He should've kept on
stubbornly attacking like he was.
Copy !req
163. Indeed, the man called one of the
Twin Stars of the Empire is different.
Copy !req
164. The skilled ones always come
out from the enemy side.
Copy !req
165. What do you think, Commander?
Copy !req
166. The present situation is shaping
up to be fortress versus fleet.
Copy !req
167. But if it becomes a game between fleets,
can you defeat that half of the Twin Stars?
Copy !req
168. I don't know.
Copy !req
169. Kempf, whom we fought before, should be
inferior to Reuental at flexibility of troops use.
Copy !req
170. But we barely won then.
Copy !req
171. It's a matter of luck.
Copy !req
172. Please don't say things
that ruin my expectations.
Copy !req
173. I've said before I think you can defeat
Reinhard von Lohengramm later.
Copy !req
174. What'll you do if you can't
defeat his subordinate?
Copy !req
175. You're free to
think what you like...
Copy !req
176. but sovereign self-confidence
need not lead to objective results.
Copy !req
177. Nevertheless, since that time,
the enemy hasn't moved.
Copy !req
178. Right. They absolutely won't come
within firing range of the fortress gun.
Copy !req
179. And they don't respond
to our challenges.
Copy !req
180. By repeating approach and retreat,
their goal is probably to exhaust us.
Copy !req
181. Because no matter how long
we stay inside the fortress...
Copy !req
182. the soldiers' sense of unease and
nervous exhaustion will just intensify.
Copy !req
183. Oh dear, I'm regretting
my failure of a while ago.
Copy !req
184. Admiral, I think for the time being, you
should go back to your quarters and rest.
Copy !req
185. Do I look like
I'm that tired?
Copy !req
186. Somehow, you
seem depressed.
Copy !req
187. Oh well, I guess I should
take your suggestion then.
Copy !req
188. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
189. This is the first time I've fought
in this kind of boring battle.
Copy !req
190. When we launch, the enemy won't approach.
And when they attack, it's not our turn.
Copy !req
191. It's a battle for the fortress'
defenses to take care of.
Copy !req
192. Wouldn't you
rather be safe?
Copy !req
193. It doesn't suit
my disposition.
Copy !req
194. Even if I question your taste, I'm worried
about what the enemy's planning.
Copy !req
195. Are they seriously interested
in toppling this fortress?
Copy !req
196. Didn't they come all this
way to do just that?
Copy !req
197. I wonder...
Copy !req
198. Looking at how they're doing things, doesn't
it seem like they're just playing with us?
Copy !req
199. Rather than the type of guy
who makes war seriously...
Copy !req
200. I like the type of guy who
does it like he's playing.
Copy !req
201. Listen. What I'm saying is, it's not
a matter of your likes and dislikes.
Copy !req
202. I'm worried about
the enemy's intentions.
Copy !req
203. I know that well...
Copy !req
204. You see, as much
as you're worrying...
Copy !req
205. our commander has been
thinking about it since long ago.
Copy !req
206. He doesn't deserve any points as a lover,
but as a strategist, no one else is better.
Copy !req
207. That rustic genius.
Copy !req
208. The opposite of you?
Copy !req
209. I'm not that conceited.
Copy !req
210. Because I'm just
digesting quantity.
Copy !req
211. To a lover, the thing called "philanthropism"
becomes a matter of demerit.
Copy !req
212. That kind of
thing, is it?
Copy !req
213. Yeah! And much
more than that!
Copy !req
214. Talking to you, I've
thought of it again...
Copy !req
215. but when I'm "playing catch"
with words with somebody...
Copy !req
216. many times my situation
and thoughts become organized.
Copy !req
217. I see.
Copy !req
218. But a partner is
essential for that.
Copy !req
219. On that point, Julian was
my truly obedient partner.
Copy !req
220. He's not like somebody.
Copy !req
221. Because you make
each other think.
Copy !req
222. So, if even you think so...
Copy !req
223. then you're saying that Julian's
absence is even greater to Admiral Yang?
Copy !req
224. Well, yeah.
Copy !req
225. I guess that boy's value is
unexpectedly greater than we think.
Copy !req
226. So you finally noticed?
Copy !req
227. When Julian's not here,
you're inconvenienced, too.
Copy !req
228. Maybe I should get Charlotte
to take care of you?
Copy !req
229. Oh, dear!
Copy !req
230. You understand words?
Copy !req
231. OK...
Copy !req
232. I'm aware that the Imperial Fleet is
deadlocking the front lines at Iserlohn.
Copy !req
233. Rather, taking that premise, by
sending reinforcements in name only...
Copy !req
234. they intend to cause
the next military maneuver.
Copy !req
235. But where these reinforcements are
heading isn't the Iserlohn Corridor.
Copy !req
236. It's the Phezzan Corridor.
Copy !req
237. That course of action will be the
true objective of the next dispatch.
Copy !req
238. So we're being made into
a huge camouflage pageant.
Copy !req
239. I know that.
Copy !req
240. But, so what?
Copy !req
241. It was the same way during
the coup d'etat last year.
Copy !req
242. I can read Prince Lohengramm's
strategic designs...
Copy !req
243. but I can't do anything
by just knowing.
Copy !req
244. I can't be happy about
my guesses being right.
Copy !req
245. There's clearly more value in being the
active agent, rather than the predictor.
Copy !req
246. At times like this,
I wish Julian were here.
Copy !req
247. Admiral, very sorry for disturbing you
while you're taking a much needed rest.
Copy !req
248. There are movements
in the enemy fleet.
Copy !req
249. Understood.
Copy !req
250. I'm on my way.
Copy !req
251. Lieutenant.
Copy !req
252. It's not particularly your fault.
You shouldn't be so apologetic.
Copy !req
253. Besides, my mood's
changed for the better.
Copy !req
254. Thanks.
Copy !req
255. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
256. Well, now...
Copy !req
257. What has the enemy
planned this time?
Copy !req
258. Small groups of about 500 ships
are using hit-and-run tactics...
Copy !req
259. repeatedly attacking
from close range.
Copy !req
260. Shall we counterattack with
the floating gun platforms?
Copy !req
261. Good.
Copy !req
262. Prepare the Thor Hammer.
Copy !req
263. Enemy fleet, retreating!
Copy !req
264. Turret number 538 in block
E27 was severely damaged!
Copy !req
265. Spacecraft launching deck
number 52 was damaged!
Copy !req
266. No response from
turret number 47!
Copy !req
267. Enemy's fourth
wave approaching!
Copy !req
268. Prepare to fire the
Thor Hammer a second time!
Copy !req
269. Thor Hammer energy full!
Copy !req
270. Are they planning
on sacrificing them?
Copy !req
271. Enemy's fifth wave, angle of
elevation 53 degrees, at 9 o'clock.
Copy !req
272. The blind spot
of the Thor Hammer?
Copy !req
273. Turrets from area 67B, to 77,
move to area 56.
Copy !req
274. We'll set up
a barrage of beams.
Copy !req
275. Shall we send out
the Spartanians?
Copy !req
276. No, it's no use now.
Copy !req
277. Counterattack with
the gun turrets.
Copy !req
278. Have the engineering staff
prepare to repair the damage.
Copy !req
279. Thor Hammer is
ready to fire!
Copy !req
280. Fire!
Copy !req
281. As things stand, they'll
take the outer wall!
Copy !req
282. Automate the guns near
the enemy's attacking point...
Copy !req
283. fire the main gun
inside the fluid metal.
Copy !req
284. What?
Copy !req
285. But then they'll
blow themselves up!
Copy !req
286. Yes, and it will push the
fluid metal back in place.
Copy !req
287. Indeed!
Copy !req
288. Oh dear,
the cost...
Copy !req
289. He can fight.
Copy !req
290. But with the surface in that state, they
can't use the floating gun platforms.
Copy !req
291. Don't let up
on the attack!
Copy !req
292. Now's our chance!
Copy !req
293. Thor Hammer's third firing, target angle
of elevation, 27 degrees and 50 minutes.
Copy !req
294. Azimuth 8:30 o'clock direction.
Copy !req
295. Energy recharge is 70% !
Copy !req
296. I don't care. Stop the
enemy's concentration.
Copy !req
297. It's a diversion.
Copy !req
298. Thor Hammer, fire!
Copy !req
299. It's the Thor Hammer.
Copy !req
300. We're outside the firing range.
Copy !req
301. We're in the middle of the scheduled
concentration of the sixth formation.
Copy !req
302. Sixth formation,
retreat temporarily!
Copy !req
303. Chief of Staff, what are the enemy
and allied damages so far?
Copy !req
304. We've destroyed two hundred
enemy gun turrets...
Copy !req
305. but we've also had
two hundred ships destroyed.
Copy !req
306. This is enough.
We'll withdraw for now!
Copy !req
307. Yes, sir.
B... but...
Copy !req
308. What we've done should be enough. We've
inflicted considerable damage to the enemy.
Copy !req
309. We don't want to incur
any more useless damage.
Copy !req
310. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
311. Then...
Very soon...
Copy !req
312. Yes. It's the start
of the big drama.
Copy !req
313. The attack on Iserlohn Fortress
has ended in failure after all...
Copy !req
314. and the Imperial Fleet has retreated
into Imperial territory again.
Copy !req
315. According to information from Phezzan, the
Imperial Fleet hasn't given up on the invasion.
Copy !req
316. High Admiral Reuental has sought
reinforcements from his government.
Copy !req
317. Imperial Fleet Supreme Commander
Field Marshal Reinhard von Lohengramm...
Copy !req
318. is expressing regret at Admiral
Reuental's hard-pressed fight.
Copy !req
319. His intention to capture Iserlohn
at this opportunity in one blow...
Copy !req
320. is being transmitted to his
highest ranking staff officers.
Copy !req
321. Those who have been on standby in the
star zone surrounding the capital are...
Copy !req
322. High Admiral
Wolfgang Mittermeyer...
Copy !req
323. Admiral Karl
Robert Steinmetz...
Copy !req
324. Admiral August
Samuel Wahlen...
Copy !req
325. and Admiral Neithardt Mueller,
have all been given orders to launch.
Copy !req
326. As rapidly as possible, go to the Iserlohn
Corridor, and carry out your duty.
Copy !req
327. If you find you still
need troop strength...
Copy !req
328. I will personally depart
the capital and join your ranks.
Copy !req
329. As you will!
We'll do what we can!
Copy !req
330. It's started, hasn't it.
Copy !req
331. Yes, it's the beginning
of the end, Fraulein.
Copy !req
332. I might be going
on a long trip.
Copy !req
333. I've got to pay Heinrich
a visit before I depart...
Copy !req
334. S.E. 798 Imperial
Year 489, December 9.
Copy !req
335. The second act of the
Ragnarok Operation had begun.
Copy !req
336. Beyond the line of sight
where Reinhard and Hilda gazed...
Copy !req
337. a sea of stars that must be
subjugated showed limitless breadth.
Copy !req
338. Preview of Next Episode
Copy !req
339. Declaring that they're going to
Iserlohn Corridor as reinforcements...
Copy !req
340. the Imperial Fleet departed
from the Imperial capital, Odin...
Copy !req
341. but then immediately changed course to the Phezzan Corridor.
Copy !req
342. Julian and the resident military
officer face imminent danger.
Copy !req
