Is that a relic from the Great War's times... ?
It has been about a century... since Magic became a real technology.
Those who had talent for magic were considered as weapons by the State
and eventually became power itself.
Among them, those capable of destroying an entire city in one blow
and repelling an entire army alone are called Strategic-Class magicians.
Being able to influence the state of affairs, they're becoming a symbol for the military force.
March 27th North America, USA Albuquerque Airport Arrivals' lobby
Silvy~
You came to pick me up?
Welcome back, General commander.
We're not in service right now so just Lina is fine.
Look, I brought a lot of souvenirs!
Here.
No... actually...
Umh?
Orders from the HQ's staff, General commander.
Please head over to Honolulu.
Wai... WHAT?
I just came back, you know!?
What sort of mission is it ??
I wonder... please get more directives from their HQ when you get there.
At least let me rest for a while!
I think you can at least get some rest in Honolulu...
There's no way you can know tha-
Uh... wait... eh?
Sorry, Lina.
Silvy...?
Heh?
SILVYY!!
Wait! Please!
See you later~ haha. Thank you very much for the souvenirs!
Uuuuhhhhh. Silvy, you heartleeeeeeeess!
March 28th Osawagara Archipelago Saojima Islands Nakoudojima
Delicious, isn't it, Onii-sama?
There!
Erika, why do you lie?
Isn't this also this game's true charm?
But man... what's the meaning behind breaking a watermelon with a bat?
Tradition, of course?!
Yeah..
Onii-sama?
Huh?
Umh... how is it... ?
I mean... my new swimsuit?
The one you chose for me when we went out for shopping together the other day...
What do you think?
Uwaa!
Uh-huoo..
What are you doin-
It suits you very well.
As I thought.
Hah... Thank you very much, Onii-sama.
Shizuku Ojou-sama, I made preparations for your share too.
Thank you, Kurasawa-san.
Let's go, Honoka.
Yes.
That watermelon game looks so fun!
Erika sliced it perfectly.
Sliced?
Wasn't Mizuki taking indications?
Yep.
Delicious, really delicious, Shizuku!
Right? It's Kurosawa-san's specialty, you know.
She used a lot of fruits.
I can sort of imagine it.
Indeed.
Eeeeh? Really? I can't waaaiiit.
Hey, Miyuki, don't you feel the same?
Yeah, you're right.
Tatsuya-san, Miyuki, thanks.
What's with you all of a sudden?
It's like Onii-sama is saying: why all of a sudden, Shizuku?
I invited you all abruptly...
Thanks to you everyone came on a vacation during Spring break.
Rather, we should thank you.
Go ahead.
Onii-sama, that's...
What a rare sight... a Defense Army air boat...
Onii-sama...
An immediate order from the army.
Miyuki... please remove my seal.
Heh? But...
"Depart in condition of firing the Material Bust..." the orders say.
It's also written I get our aunt's approval.
I understand.
If you say our aunt won't meddle into this, I'll gladly do it.
Ibaraki prefecture Ibaraki Military Base
At ease.
Yes.
Without delay...
We monitored an unnatural change in the trajectory of an asteroid passing between Mars and Earth's orbits.
Unnatural... you say?
It seems its trajectory suddenly bent inwards.
Due to that, the possibility of a collision with the Earth rose up.
At the current state, that possibility has been calculated to be higher than 90%.
"It's almost certain to fall on Earth" is what you're implying, right?
That's right.
Asteroid 2095GE9, code name: Sieg.
If we try to blow it up mid-air, the most probable area of impact of its rests is in the East China Sea.
If it deviates to Japan, Kyushu's region will take considerable damage.
We can't afford to ignore this situation.
Therefore, orders to Special Officer Oguro:
using Material Bust, destroy Sieg.
Asteroid 2095GE9: explosion confirmed.
Southern Tatejima Nanpo Islands' Arsenal
Army's Strategic-Class magicians...
as expected they intervened, huh...
Unfortunately, I can't say we got enough data from the examination but...
there's no need for us to get rid of it anymore.
Next is the trajectory ejection experiment.
In a few days... no... Tomorrow,
March 30th, from 19:00, we will implement the appropriate experiments.
It's finally time, isn't it?
Yes... if this experiment succeeds
there's no way the Navy's higher-ups shouldn't recognize us.
Wait a moment, Chief.
These girls haven't recovered yet from the current experiment's damage.
As we did till now, we should give them at least a week of rest.
Morinaga-kun, is there any proof their magical powers need a week to be restored?
I don't remember seeing such data if you ask me...
That's...
I believe scientists should rely on objective data to make any decision and not on their personal feelings though...
There are no changes for the next experiment's date.
Needless to say, make sure to fix every change in the prisoners' conditions.
March 29th Osawagara Arcipelago Chichijima
What might it be...
Huh? Is this an encrypted email?
Mari, wake up!
Look at this for a moment.
Isn't it too early...?
It's already morning, you know.
This...
Bitter.
This is... !
Southern Tatejima
That's the center of navy's military base, huh...
The base and the mall being joined by land...
means it's not a continuation of the artificial ground, right?
Even if it's a military base, this is a civilian property built using the base's surplus production of supplies.
They can't be together.
Yoshida-kun~ Leo-kun~
What about lunch?
Oh, finally! I had enough to wait.
Huh?? If you had enough of waiting already you still have a long way to go.
Wait, I have no clue what you mean. That sort of follow-up...
Hey, hey guys, what should we have for lunch?
Mayumi!
Did you find her?
Not yet, can't see her anywhere.
I'll go look that way.
Thanks.
Mizuki and Tatsuya-kun starting next year will be in the Magical Engineering course...
and Miki will be a Course 1 student, huh.
Hey Miki, your honest opinion becoming a Bloom?
Please... you know I don't make distinctions between Blooms and Weeds...
Leo... what happened?
Not sure. Something's up outside.
Huh?
Security personnel... ?
No, military police perhaps?
Someone might have escaped from the base?
It's not normal. For some reason I have the feeling something dangerous is going on.
Better hurry back to the villa.
You're right...
It's a bit earlier than planned, but shall we go back?
The plug door was left opened.
I'm sorry.
He was sleeping...
Oh...
Even though Date-san has the skills...
Let us check inside of the plane!
You, the private jet over there! Open the plug door!
Those guys...
Erika?
What do you want?
Kuh! Uh... Erika Ojou-san?
You guys... what do you want from this airplane?
I think I heard you wanted to search inside...?
You see... Truth is...
It seems a particular patient from the base's hospital run away.
"It seems"... ?
Ah, yes!
So we've been informed.
It's not on this airplane.
No... well... you see...
I wonder if you can let us search inside just in case...
I said "it's not here", right?
Or...
You don't trust my words?
No, excuse us, ma'am.
H-hey...
That's fine, let's go.
The soldiers from before... were they disciples from the Chiba branch?
Umh, yeah.
Looks like they didn't forget my face.
By the way, Erika.
Why did you cover up for her?
Heh, you noticed...
You can get out now.
Come out now... it's fine.
Welcome back, Ojou-sama.
I'm back, Takeuchi-san.
Our guest didn't come?
The guest you told me about didn't show up.
I see...
Instead, a couple of soldiers from the base barged in.
They came under the pretext of searching for an escaped patient from their hospital but...
after I briefly showed them inside the plane, they went back satisfied.
I see.
But still... where did that girl go?
She wasn't at the rendezvous point either.
Could it be she got caught already?
Even now there's still personnel who seem to be looking for her around the terminal.
I don't think she got caught yet.
Ojou-sama, about that... I might have a lead.
What is it?
Until few moments ago, it got crowded between this plane and a similar one, roughly 100m from the terminal.
I think there's a high probability she mistook the plane and boarded the other one.
That! Please find which plane that was.
As fast as you can.
Onii-sama, you came back.
Yeah, about an hour ago.
You guys instead: you came back earlier than planned.
Heh? Tatsuya-san!
Oh, you came back.
Good work.
Thanks.
That girl is... ?
Let's see... what's your name?
It's... Kokoa.
Kokoa, I see. How old are you?
I am... 14 years... old.
14?
I thought she was a bit younger...
Is it true you run away from the navy's military base?
No...
From the... military base's laboratory.
Do you know what sort of laboratory?
It was a... magic laboratory.
Heh? Kokoa-chan, are you a magician?
..magician?
That word refers to those able to use magic.
Have you ever used magic, Kokoa-chan?
We... were called... the Watatsumi series.
Onii-sama...
Yes. It must be body adjustment.
So... what sort of things Kokoa was doing in the laboratory?
From time to time... I went inside a... big machine.
A big machine?
Most likely, a bigger version of a CAD.
In case a giant CAD machine is used, all of a magician's senses are controlled by the machine's programs to automatically build a Magic Sequence. It's a common case scenario.
It's fine to assume not even Kokoa knows what she was used for.
That way... it sounds like she was just a component of the machine.
Why did you escape from the laboratory?
"Run away!" they told... me.
Who told you?
Morinaga-san.
She is a... scientist.
Do you know why she told you to run away?
Kokoa, run away!
If you continue with the experiments like this, you'll lose your personality.
You'll end up becoming a doll.
Before that happens... we've gotta do something...
.."you'll lose your personality"?
Tatsuya-kun, is that even possible?
I won't say it can't be.
Kokoa.
Uhm.. well, Tatsuya-san, Kokoa-chan didn't do it out of ill will...
No... sorry, Honoka. Don't worry about it.
Please ask her if she was the only one connected to that big CAD machine.
Kokoa-chan, were you the only one entering that big machine?
No...
It was us...
"When you say us, do you refer to the Watatsumi series?"
When you say us, do you refer to the Watatsumi series?
Yes... it was... the nine of us.
So body adjustments were made on nine of them...
Well... when you get out of that big machine, how do you feel?
Feel..?
Fluffy...
as if it was... melting...
What exactly was melting?
Myself... something inside of us...
So they were self-aware of the symptoms of their personality disappearing....
But that's... !
When several magicians' magic calculation areas are forced together, it's possible to create a large scale Magic Sequence.
There's a rumor such a research was going on during the Great War.
Most likely, they tried to revive it...
That's crazy. There's no way the magician's soul will remain intact by doing that.
I want... your... help.
Rest assured, no one will take you away from here.
I'll help you until everything's over.
No...
I want you... to save... us.
Us... you mean...
"I want you to save the other girls from the laboratory"... is what you're asking, right?
Yes.
If we were to make the other girls escape from Navy's secret laboratory
we won't be able to avoid the conflict with them.
Even so, I want to do something.
If Honoka's gonna do it, I'll do it too.
If you take on such resolve, it just makes it harder to pull back.
Me too. I vote to help them.
I don't mind either, but...
I can't agree with putting Shibata-san, Kitayama-san and Mitsui-san in danger.
Oh, is it fine for me to be in danger then?
Well, of course. You're way stronger than him after all, Miyuki.
Erika, might it be you have something to tell me?
Nooope. Nothing at all.
I was joking.
Yoshida-kun, I'm fine, so go help Kokoas please.
Shibata-san...
Ok, got it.
Onii-sama...
I, too, want to be of help to Kokoa and the others.
Alright, let's do something.
Orders from the General Headquarters' Staff:
completely destroy the Magic Research Laboratory of the Japanese army located in the military base of Southern Tatejima, including equipment and research documents.
Does this imply the General Headquarters' Staff has deemed their magic research dangerous for the USA?
...for the entire world, actually.
At the aforementioned Magic Research Laboratory they are developing a Strategic-Class Magic able to pull giant mass bodies near the Earth and making them fall down.
Depending on their mass...
it's a magic capable not only of blowing up a city, but an entire nation too. It's an extremely dangerous magic.
General Commander, about the "destroy all research results" part...
Does it also include the scientists' brains' complete destruction?
Orders say to completely destroy the research documents.
I didn't get any more details.
Which means... they leave on-site decisions to us?
Ralph! On-site decisions will be taken by the General Commander or case being, me, the superior officer.
I know very well, officer.
I won't take action on my own.
Very well. Then let's work on a plan.
Operation will commence in 27 hours from current time.
Keeping in mind we'll go with an amphibious strategy, Hardy and I will make a diversion.
More in specific, I will destroy the defense positions on the eastern coast of Southern Tatejima with my magic.
Hardy will back me up.
Using the diversion, Ben and Ralph will land in the Laboratory using Thrust Suits coming from north.
After destroying all the documents and equipment, blow up the Laboratory.
However, in case the amphibious operation fails, just retreat immediately without worry.
As plan B, I will blow up the military base using Heavy Metal Bust.
Wha- Did we get permission to fire the Strategic-Class magic?
That's just how serious of a threat it was deemed by the General Headquarters' Staff.
The USA won't be coerced by the fact a Strategic-Class magic threatening the world is being reborn anew.
That's something even the Japanese military army must know.
That's how it is.
Luckily, reports say that after sunset there are no civilians working across all military facilities on Southern Tatejima.
We should be able to keep casualties to a minimum.
Well then, everyone. Prepare for the operation.
Ahhh, it feels so good.
True.
How is it, Kokoa-chan?
I'll give you a hand then.
Ah, gosh, Erika.
Geez, her hair became all foamy.
Look, this way you make a lot of bubbles.
Here, foamy foamy. It feels nice, right?
There are too many bubbles now!
Kokoa-chan, your front bangs grew too much.
You fine? Did you get any in your eyes?
Honoka... what are these bubbles?
It's shampoo. Don't you know what that is?
I... don't.
It's also the first time... I see the water... of an aquarium.
..water of an aquarium?
Kokoa-chan, have you never got into a bathtub?
So... it is.
Since we usually used the disinfenction tank...
Then you've gotta enjoy the bath to make up for the time you lost.
Baths for girls, you see...
are not just to clean up your body, it's a place where they make themselves nicer.
Today I'll polish you from tip to toe!
Huh? Are we too early?
Actually, is everyone readying the table?
Where is Kurosawa-san?
She's out on a special request of mine.
..special request?
Truth is... ah!
Hoh!
You're lovely, Kokoa-chan.
Looks like the size of those clothes is fine, I'm glad.
Well then, shall we have dinner?
You're right.
Kokoa-chan, is something wrong?
Where is... Saegusa Mayumi-san?
Saegusa Mayumi-san... that Saegusa-senpai?
She's not here.
What's your business with her?
Morinaga-san... told me to... ask for help... from Saegusa Mayumi-san.
..from Saegusa-senpai?
Wasn't that plane... Mayumi-san's... plane?
Now that you mention, there was a similar type of tilt rotor aircraft parked on the airfield...
Tell us sooner about such a thing.
Don't be ridiculous!
Which means, was that aircraft Saegusa-senpai's private jet?
Probably, yes.
She might be around here for her graduation trip.
Onii-sama, I think senpai must also be worried we couldn't meet up..
If you're fine with it, I will send her a message to get a call later...
You're right...
I'll leave it to you.
Certainly.
Everyone:
please take a seat.
Uh-oh, this looks delicious.
Come on, let's eat.
Onii-sama...
Is it fine to disturb you?
I don't mind.
Have a seat here.
Tomorrow, I will go with the Magic Association to the military base of Kasumigaura.
I see.
As expected, the conflict with the navy is un-avoidable, isn't it?
Was wanting to save Kokoa an impulsive decision, I wonder...
Even if it was just sympathy... it's not a fleeting feeling, right?
That...
That's my belief.
I, too, didn't want to abandon that girl.
To counter the body adjustments, I knew I had to replace sympathy with rationality, but...
Even for you, I think that by no means it was an evil act.
Kokoa and the others aside, there's something bothering me.
A magic research, expropriating human beings of their personality using a giant CAD and applying really valuable body adjustments on 9 people until they break down,
is living behind closed doors.
"I can't neglect this." - That's what I feel.
March 30th
Ibaraki prefecture Lake Kasumigaura's military base
Thank you very much for preparing the Converted Mobile Suit.
Captain Sanada.
No, no. On our side, this is a great opportunity to test it.
By the way, was everything fine at the Magic Association?
I just reported what really happened.
What I'll do hereon is up to the Magic Association.
As the ones who declaim the magicians' safety, the Magic Association won't be able to ignore this, most likely.
The national defense army is the one breaking the "do not use less than 18 years old magicians as magical military weapons" after all
I am 16 though...
That's that, this is this.
Ah, right, special officer.
Bring these with you.
These are... a Deep and a Beta storage, right?
The Deep one aside, I know the Beat one is still incomplete and we can't fully rely on it in battle...
On our side, if we have the chance we'd like to gather data.
See it as a loan for the Converted Suit.
Understood.
Well then, special officer. Be careful.
Welcome back, Onii-sama.
I'm back.
Did Saegusa-senpai come?
Yes, she arrived just a moment ago.
Are you Watatsumi Kokoa-chan?
Watatsumi series, manufacture number 22, alias Kokoa.
Are you... Saegusa Mayumi-san?
Yes, I am.
Sorry I couldn't go to save you yesterday.
Uh-uhn.
I see. Thanks.
Umh... what's your relationship... ?
Morinaga-sensei, my brother's teacher, joined navy's secret magic experiments but...
seeing the terrible treatment Kokoa-chan and the others received there, she asked me for protection.
So that's how it was...
Well then, would you like to come with Onee-chan to Tokyo?
Regarding that, I'd like you to ask something, senpai.
What might it be?
Aside from me, can you also take all the others with your jet back to Tokyo?
Everyone besides you?
That's right.
Also, Shizuku.
What is it?
Can I borrow Kitayama family's airplane for a while?
What are you gonna use it for?
There are other 8 girls on the same boat as Kokoa.
Tatsuya-kun, what are you planning to do?
Are you saying you're gonna save them all alone?
Well... yes.
I understand.
Mayumi?
We've been asked to just take Kokoa back to Tokyo.
Other than that, it's none of our business.
Are you saying I'd be a burden?
That's not it.
I think Tatsuya-kun has a duty to accomplish on behalf of someone else.
Alright.
Tatsuya-kun. Be careful.
I won't be a burden to you, you know.
Besides, don't you think taking out 8 girls like Kokoa is a bit hard for you alone?
Indeed, manpower is needed.
I'll stay here too.
I knew you guys wouldn't stay quiet and obey my orders.
But of course.
Even if I'd rather not, I have to agree.
Me too.
Onii-sama.
Don't you need someone to take care of Shizuku's airplane?
That being the case, I'll stay behind.
Then, Yoshida-kun, can't we take care of it together?
Shouldn't it be fine if it's like this, Onii-sama?
Alright...
Mikihiko, I'm sorry, but I'll leave it to you.
Yes.
Looks like it's gonna be a crazy Spring break.
You can say it out louder.
I beg you, don't go out of control, please.
Erika... what is that?
Ah, it's a down-sized version of Horochimaru: Mizucchimaru.
I brought it with me without Shizuku knowing.
Nice thing being always prepared.
Since you never know what might happen, right?
Then... I'll leave house-watching to you.
Yes.
Please be careful.
Kokoa-chan, this one-piece really suits you.
Yes, it's really cute.
There are others...
JA-85-942, follow this plane's orders and land at Southern Tatejima island's airport.
Ojou-sama, what shall we do?
Please ignore them.
JA-85-942, obey our orders.
There's no other way, huh...
This is JA-85-942, I'm deeply sorry but we're unable to obey.
If we go back to Southern Tatejima now we won't have enough fuel.
Don't screw around.
Instead of heading to Haneda, Southern Tatejima is closer by.
Unfortunately, we didn't prepare additional fuel so we won't be able to go back to Tokyo afterwards.
JA-85-942, I repeat my advice: obey this plane's orders.
As I said, our fuel supply won't last.
JA-85-942, this was a warning. Next one will hit.
We're serious.
That's troublesome, isn't it...
That one was a warning. Next one will hit.
I am serious, you know.
I wonder if you can wait here for a moment...
Alright.
Sorry for the wait. Get changed into these, please.
Hey, Tatsuya-kun, how did you get a hold of these?
Want to know?
No no, I won't ask.
Thanks for the wai- Huh?
Tatsuya-kun, what the heck is that...
Just a tiny secret weapon.
Erika, Leo. Take out your terminal.
I located the Laboratory.
You got it, right?
The Laboratory's public name seems to be Southern Islands' Arsenal.
I will infiltrate before you and take out Kokoa's companions, after that please escort them to this boat.
Huh!?
Control room, are there any civilians left?
I can't confirm any civilian's presence.
It's as we planned, I see.
Then, commence operation.
Yes, Ma'am.
Your flagship is violating our country's territorial waters.
Surface immediately and clarify your ship's name and nationality.
I repeat.
Unknown warship, surface immediately.
No luck, Commander. We can't get through.
Defense positions: launch submarine missiles.
Are we gonna sink it?
First, an intimidation.
Point-blank shot. Concentrate your shots.
Rocket launcher: activation confirmed.
Transferring satellite footage.
Footage confirmed.
Aim: rocket launcher.
Heavy Metal Bust: activation.
This shaking...
Looks like our General Commander made it flashy once again.
Ralph, stop laughing.
But officer, what should we do? With that thing we can't infiltrate for a while now.
Indeed...
The magic just now... was it Lina's Heavy Metal Bust?
Why are the Stars here?
But man... she doesn't know how to hold back as usual.
Was it like this?
No... something's off.
Not sure what's happening, but this is our chance.
Finally the electromagnetic interferences are weakening.
Just now, didn't you hear "An unknown submarine appeared" too?
I heard it too.
Also, an evacuation warning for the civilians is currently out.
It seems that...
the attacks from the submarine destroyed the defense positions on the eastern coast.
An evacuation warning for the civilians is out.
You are... ?
Do you perhaps know a girl called Kokoa?
Did you find Kokoa?
Is she... is Kokoa alright?
She's fine.
Are you Morinaga-san?
Yes, I am.
Did they find out you made her escape?
No...
but letting her escape was more than enough to be disposed of.
We accepted Kokoa's request to save the other 8 girls here.
Are you gonna save those girls?
Please, I don't care if you abandon me or the other scientists.
But those girls...
If you're so worried for them, why performing such experiments?
You knew using Soul Linkage wouldn't produce any decent results.
It's as you say.
We got conceited... no... we were impatient.
Army's Strategic-Class magic that annihilated the Diamond Alliance Fleet.
On par with the magic that brought the Scorched Halloween - a Strategic-Class magic of such caliber -
that's what the navy asked for.
We thought such a thing was possible.
But that's our sin alone.
Those girls are just victims!
If it's for saving those girls, I don't care what happens to me.
That's why...
Where are the remaining girls?
I'll lead the way.
Those girls are being used for an experiment right now.
What sort of magic is the one you were developing?
We call it Meteorite Fall, it's a meteorite bomb.
Capable of manipulating the trajectory of asteroids in the Earth's neighborhood...
a magic able to make them fall down on Earth.
..asteroids?
The asteroid 2095GE9 from two days ago... was that your doing?
That's right.
How do you know?
It would be for the best to not use the elevator.
The one going on right now is the trajectory ejection experiment.
By inverting the direction of a falling meteorite's equation formula...
it's an experiment able to overturn the falling trajectory of satellites which become a threat now or even in the future and send them back into space.
But every artificial satellite is more or less made to burn into the atmosphere.
Is there a satellite's trajectory you must change at all costs?
The target this time is...
USNA, high temperature military satellite, Seventh Plague.
What!? Is the person in charge here crazy?
That military satellite contains 60 tons of depleted uranium, you know.
If the ejection experiment fails and it falls on Earth
the environment contamination would be immeasurable.
Even if that won't be the case
due to the shock dealt by the trajectory change, the 30 ground-to-ground missiles inside it, Hell of Fire, might be accidentally launched.
If that happens... the worst case scenario is a return to the Great World War.
Impossible.
What's happening?
There's must be an error.
There's no error in the measurements.
Do something!
How did it become like this?
Could it be you input the wrong settings?
No way...
Chief, what the heck is going on?
Morinaga-kun, huh?
Chief, what happened?
Don't tell me... it failed?
Seventh Plague will fall down within 24 hours.
That's why I told you: it's impossible to make it work with just 8 people when you'd normally need 12.
Preparations had no flaws.
The experiment was perfect.
The data from this experiment will bring huge advantages for the future experiments to succeed.
Don't fool around! There won't be a next time!
Give it a rest!
The reason it didn't meet our expectations was... due to an un-expected explosion.
Due to the influence of a large scale magic used on the defense positions
the Magic Sequence got corrupted.
It's the outrageous invaders' fault.
You know it wouldn't get corrupted with just that.
I'm not wrong.
..not wrong. I'm not wrong.
The experiment has ended.
There's no need to keep them imprisoned anymore.
Chia, get it together. Chia!
Who are you?
Kokoa asked me to come here.
Kokoa?
She asked me to take you out of here.
You can do it?
Only if you wish for it...
Please...
..save us.
Tatsuya-kun?
Tatsuya!
Erika. Leo.
Good thing we managed to meet up.
Yeah.
I'll leave them to you. She is Morinaga-san.
..leave to us? What do you plan to d-
Onii-san.
Do you plan to abandon us?
You won't be truly saved as long as we leave behind the research's information.
They would just need to make other copies of you.
If that's the case, I'll accept it.
Leave it to us, Tatsuya-kun.
Leave without me.
I'll catch up later.
You're still here?
What did you come back for?
Dump the information about Seventh Plague's trajectory on this.
Why should I do such a thin-
Just so you know: even without your help I can get it myself.
Not taking your life is just time-saving in the end.
Done with it?
Yeah.
Hey, what are you doing?
Deleting it.
Please don't.
Be careful.
Careful.
Don't! Come back!
Eh? Military Police?
Those are not Mobile Suits, huh....
Who are you?
Those girls...
Ralph, those creations are Meteorite Fall's operators.
Which means... I can kill them all, right?
Can't be helped.
GREEAAAAT!
You lot, stay back.
I'll leave it to you, Morinaga-san.
Girls, this way.
Don't be in such a hurry.
Well... we can't take it slow either though...
Looks like an opponent able to make a bloody festival.
Siegfried!
This one looks like can keep me company!
You damn psychopathic.
Ralph, you damn idiot!
Why did you stop your attack?
Crossing swords with that katana seemed to be dangerous.
Those movements... the same as Lina's...
You guys are Stars, right?
I see. You're the swordswoman from Chiba the General Commander mentioned in her report.
Shut up, you're annoying.
Got you!
Eh?
Juumonji-senpai!
Katsuto Juumonji?
Saijou. Chiba.
What are you doing here?
What's with that getup?
This is... you see...
This is Katsuto Juumonji's Phalanx, huh?
Why is Stars' Fist Divider in a Japanese military base?
Hidden mysteries of the shadow: Kirikage.
I'm deeply sorry, General Commander.
We failed.
You, Ben?
Ahem... Understood.
Let's move on with plan B.
Millfake, did you repair the satellite aim system?
It's still imperfect.
Then I will go myself in the sky and take aim.
According to the data I gathered at the Laboratory
Seventh Plague should soon be visible northeast at the horizon.
If I attack it with the Material Bust, the depleted uranium will rain down.
To completely prevent the uranium from polluting the environment,
there's no other way than using the Beta Trident to destroy the neutrons and make them harmless all at once.
Seventh Plague is not on the trajectory as planned??
What?
Is that... Lina?
Opposition located.
Activation Sequence: deployment.
Just when we don't have time to waste...
Erika and Leo are still on the island, not to mention all the tourists.
Heavy Metal Bust: activation.
Deep Mist Dispersion: activation.
Eh?
Heavy Metal Bust's Sequence suddenly crashed?
The plasma vanished?
The target...
Oh...
What exactly... is happening?
Changing aim to the underground structure.
Mist Dispersion: activation.
This means... mission completed... right?
Connection with the spy satellite re-established.
Put the footage on screen.
Chief, a telegram from the naval HQs.
Read it out loud.
Military satellite Seventh Plague has been confirmed to be on a falling trajectory...!?
What about the rest?
Sorry.
Impact location: north 27° ± 5° latitude, east 142° ± 5° longitude...
it's the area near us to the east!
So, what are the orders from the HQs?
The fleet deployed in the west Tokyo and Chiba area has to return to the military base in Hawaii within 48 hours.
Tch... asking the impossible.
Send out and order to the assault ship to return.
Depart depending on their reception.
Yessir.
Chief.
What is it?
I request permission to use ground-to-ground missiles.
Can you get closer?
Eh? It's still burning, you know. I can't get closer.
Something wrong?
Please stop here.
Well then, ladies first.
Date-san, please close the plug door.
I can't do it as Onii-sama would, but...
To prevent their movements this is enough.
Freeze!
What's going on?
Hah... it's ice.
The foundation of the warship is...
..no, the entire ship is trapped into a sea of ice!
This is...
General Commander.
Hardy, I'll go aid the New Mexico fleet.
You take care of the enemy's defense magicians.
The only one able to do this... is Miyuki.
New Mexico, can you hear me? This is Major Sirius.
General Commander, this is Canopus.
I'll start melting the ice.
Once you can move again, submerge at once.
Múspellsheimr!
Lina... can you hear me, Lina?
That voice... Tatsuya!
Lina, do you know the high temperature military satellite?
What is it all of a sudden... What's with it?
It's falling down on Earth.
Say what?
It should be known to the USNA that it's falling by now.
Go! Umi no Yamada!
What!?
Is it true?
Seems you confirmed it.
Sorry Ben, I'll cut the connection for a while.
Lina.
I have a way to completely neutralize the Seventh Plague.
I need your cooperation.
Why mine?
The reason why it has become harder to neutralize it is due to your Heavy Metal Bust which made my survey optics go out of control.
What do I have to do... ?
Miyuki.
Onii-sama!
I'll get there soon.
Lina is headed there too, but please do not attack her.
Lina is coming too?
So you need Lina's strength too.
I understand. I'll be waiting, Onii-sama.
Within 24 hours!?
Lina... I want you to send me at 140Km of altitude.
and within 10 minutes.
140Km of altitude is already space!
If it's to avoid parts wandering around, shouldn't the stratosphere be enough?
The magic I plan on using is not something I can fire many times.
With my magical power it will be a one-shot match.
That's why I want to secure my chances as much as possible.
Or might it be... you can't?
Uh- Of course I can!
I'll show you I can fulfill your order, including complete control and load reduction.
But even for me, it will be impossible to follow you on the way back.
I want to ask Miyuki for that.
Miyuki.
Most likely, I'll be falling down with my magical powers almost depleted.
Will you catch me?
Leave it to me, Onii-sama.
Even if it costs me my life, I'll make sure to take you back here safe and sound.
I'm in your hands, Miyuki.
Yes.
All ready?
Any time is fine.
Ok.
