1
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,240
I'm a soldier, znatchit ya...
I'm a soldier, and that means...
2
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,510
...i otvetchik i sud'ya
...that I am both defendant and judge.
3
00:00:15,510 --> 00:00:20,910
Ya stoyu na dvuh kontsah ognya
I stand at both ends of the fire.
4
00:00:22,110 --> 00:00:25,310
Ogibaya virazhi,
Leaning into the curves,
5
00:00:25,310 --> 00:00:28,650
obgonyaya smert' i zhizn',
overtaking life and death,
6
00:00:28,650 --> 00:00:34,180
ya begu srazit'sya s ten'yu lzhi
I'm running to fight the shadow of lies.
7
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:40,790
Skol'ko b nitej ne plyol obman,
No matter how tangled the web of deception is woven,
8
00:00:40,930 --> 00:00:48,300
pokazhet lik sveta istina...
truth will always illuminate the outline of the light...
9
00:00:49,170 --> 00:00:52,380
Save your tears for the day...
10
00:00:52,380 --> 00:00:55,680
...when the pain is far behind.
11
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,870
On your feet, come with me.
12
00:00:58,870 --> 00:01:02,320
We are soldiers, stand or die.
13
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,490
Save your fears, take your place.
14
00:01:05,490 --> 00:01:08,590
Save them for the Judgment Day.
15
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,020
Fast and free, follow me.
16
00:01:12,020 --> 00:01:16,730
Time to make the sacrifice.
17
00:01:16,730 --> 00:01:23,790
We rise or fall...
18
00:02:07,950 --> 00:02:12,120
Prime Minister Kayabuki has just greeted
Secretary of State Schrader with a handshake.
19
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,680
Imperial America has flexed its muscle
as a powerful military state...
20
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,420
...ever since the last
world war.
21
00:02:17,530 --> 00:02:20,720
But now, with the decline in national power
resulting from the collapse of their economy,
22
00:02:20,930 --> 00:02:22,460
they seem willing to
swallow their pride,
23
00:02:22,570 --> 00:02:25,030
...as is attested by their Secretary of State
suddenly coming to Japan to search for...
24
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,800
...common ground on the Security Treaty
Renegotiation Bill that was proposed by Japan.
25
00:02:30,210 --> 00:02:33,040
However, if the government of Japan were
to turn their eyes inside their own borders,
26
00:02:33,110 --> 00:02:36,010
they would see a huge number of issues
to address, such as economic instability,
27
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,810
the delay in a refugee policy,
and the Article 9 issue.
28
00:02:39,150 --> 00:02:43,850
An intensification of protests and marches
on all fronts seems inevitable.
29
00:02:44,920 --> 00:02:47,320
Turn that crap off,
we're on our break!
30
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,190
Don't take it out on those two
just 'cause you're losing.
31
00:02:50,530 --> 00:02:52,520
You're not doing
so hot yourself.
32
00:02:56,830 --> 00:02:58,660
Okay, this time I'm
gonna clean you out!
33
00:03:09,950 --> 00:03:11,470
I wouldn't be
so sure.
34
00:03:21,290 --> 00:03:25,990
So tell me, why do we have to bother with
mutual security guarantees these days?
35
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,530
Japan's got a military,
too, right?
36
00:03:28,830 --> 00:03:31,560
The current administration
is ultra-hawkish,
37
00:03:31,670 --> 00:03:34,260
but with Imperial America's
economy in the toilet now,
38
00:03:34,570 --> 00:03:38,770
they want to negotiate a new Security Treaty
while we have the upper hand.
39
00:03:39,180 --> 00:03:41,870
I guess they wanna make up for the humiliation
they went through in the 20th Century.
40
00:03:42,310 --> 00:03:44,280
What humiliation
in the 20th Century?
41
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,320
Well, to put it simply, I guess it's
the memories of losing the war.
42
00:03:48,690 --> 00:03:53,520
And because the Article 9 wild card
of our constitution is still in effect,
43
00:03:53,890 --> 00:03:56,620
the Self-Defense Army can't operate
outside the country officially.
44
00:03:56,690 --> 00:03:58,790
We can't possess
nuclear weapons, either.
45
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,960
And even though the 20th Century's Security
Treaty was signed at the expense of our pride,
46
00:04:03,030 --> 00:04:05,590
the two worked pretty well as an
implicitly indivisible team,
47
00:04:05,670 --> 00:04:08,400
with America being the spear
and Japan being the shield.
48
00:04:09,010 --> 00:04:13,310
But now that we're at the point where
the new enemy is economic issues,
49
00:04:13,580 --> 00:04:18,380
I bet this new agreement is out of wanting
to protect each other's vulnerable spots.
50
00:04:18,850 --> 00:04:23,440
Gosh, you know so much!
Synchronize that last data with me, okay?
51
00:04:23,790 --> 00:04:25,280
Sure, if you want.
52
00:04:25,790 --> 00:04:27,550
Would you two
pipe down?!
53
00:04:27,690 --> 00:04:30,390
He's right! This is a life or death
struggle here.
54
00:04:30,460 --> 00:04:31,590
Shut your traps
for a while.
55
00:04:31,660 --> 00:04:36,290
Geez, not you, too, Azuma! For a rookie,
you're being awfully pushy, don't ya think?
56
00:04:37,230 --> 00:04:40,200
Don't blame others just
because you're losing.
57
00:04:41,340 --> 00:04:43,770
Let's see you laugh
when I turn the tables on you.
58
00:04:44,470 --> 00:04:45,460
I raise.
59
00:04:50,380 --> 00:04:51,440
Raise.
60
00:04:51,820 --> 00:04:53,650
Now we've got ourselves
a poker game.
61
00:04:57,820 --> 00:05:02,690
This "poker" game is all about probabilities,
so how come Mr. Saito is winning all the time?
62
00:05:03,660 --> 00:05:06,460
That's been
bugging me, too.
63
00:05:07,260 --> 00:05:09,060
Especially with the rules
they're playing under now,
64
00:05:09,130 --> 00:05:11,190
where everybody memories
the other players' cards.
65
00:05:11,330 --> 00:05:15,070
You're supposed to predict your opponent's
hand based on the first and last cards.
66
00:05:15,370 --> 00:05:18,500
Mr. Saito shouldn't be
winning every hand,
67
00:05:18,710 --> 00:05:21,680
but for some reason, he's the one who
ends up with all the chips in the end.
68
00:05:22,380 --> 00:05:24,070
He's damn good
at bluffing, that's all.
69
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,680
I'll see through that mask of yours
soon enough.
70
00:05:27,180 --> 00:05:31,550
He's right. That's called a "poker face."
Remember it.
71
00:05:32,390 --> 00:05:34,150
You're out of
your league.
72
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:40,390
Compared to the life-or-death stakes
I'm used to, poker is a kid's game.
73
00:05:40,700 --> 00:05:42,490
Aw, what do you know
about it?
74
00:05:42,570 --> 00:05:45,800
I'll be the first to admit that
you're a first-class sniper.
75
00:05:45,870 --> 00:05:49,100
But comparing that to poker?
I don't buy it.
76
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,500
There was this one time when I was in
a one-on-one sniping duel...
77
00:05:54,910 --> 00:05:58,140
...against somebody who
scared me down to my boots.
78
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,720
I've never been as afraid of a battle of wits
as I was against that person.
79
00:06:06,820 --> 00:06:13,820
After that duel, I've been able to guess what
most people are thinking with a single look.
80
00:06:14,530 --> 00:06:16,660
Aw, you're full
of crap.
81
00:06:17,070 --> 00:06:19,500
So tell us, what was
this person like?
82
00:06:20,270 --> 00:06:21,330
Wanna hear the story?
83
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,340
Tell us the story!
Tell us the story!
84
00:06:28,180 --> 00:06:31,050
If the rest of you call my raise,
I'll tell you the story.
85
00:06:35,620 --> 00:06:38,680
I ain't dying to hear your
tall tale or anything.
86
00:06:39,590 --> 00:06:41,020
Don't get the
wrong idea.
87
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,590
It was back in the summer
of 2020.
88
00:06:47,930 --> 00:06:51,160
Eurasia was bogged down in
a pointless war of attrition,
89
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,770
and I had gotten fed up with the vindictive
isolationist policy that Japan enjoyed,
90
00:06:55,840 --> 00:06:58,810
sitting there in the middle of
the delicate political balance.
91
00:06:59,110 --> 00:07:02,340
So I hired on as a mercenary
with the "Crimson Bianco,"
92
00:07:02,410 --> 00:07:06,540
a volunteer army that supported
Mexico's provisional government.
93
00:07:07,250 --> 00:07:12,210
And back then, my left eye was still
in its socket, safe and sound.
94
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,090
Middle Eastern oil and
Central American drugs.
95
00:07:24,300 --> 00:07:27,790
There's always conflict in places
where there's profit to be made.
96
00:07:28,610 --> 00:07:32,800
Imperial America, which was divided and
exhausted from the recent nuclear world war,
97
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,340
was beginning to seriously entertain the notion
of wiping out the New World's drug markets...
98
00:07:37,410 --> 00:07:40,680
...to stem the drain it caused
on their national budget.
99
00:07:42,020 --> 00:07:44,890
Using the pretext of overthrowing
Mexico's corrupt government,
100
00:07:44,950 --> 00:07:47,650
Imperial America whipped up the U.N.,
which sent in forces...
101
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,690
...comprised of British and Japanese
troops into South America.
102
00:07:51,060 --> 00:07:53,860
They began with relentless
carpet bombing attacks,
103
00:07:53,930 --> 00:07:55,960
citing "speedy capture of
the capital" as a reason.
104
00:07:56,170 --> 00:08:00,300
Afterwards, they resorted to strong-arm tactics
like sending mechanized divisions...
105
00:08:00,370 --> 00:08:02,860
...into Monterrey to mop up
any armed resistance.
106
00:08:03,770 --> 00:08:08,270
With my squad wiped out by the U.N.'s
armored units after the bombing,
107
00:08:08,410 --> 00:08:11,540
I was biding my time, waiting
for a chance to surrender.
108
00:08:12,020 --> 00:08:13,570
That's when it happened.
109
00:08:15,020 --> 00:08:17,380
The terminal I was using to monitor
enemy communications...
110
00:08:17,450 --> 00:08:20,820
...reported that it had made contact with a
special forces unit that had a tactical nuke.
111
00:08:23,460 --> 00:08:26,190
I hadn't been able to rack up
many kills up until that point,
112
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:31,300
so I figured that I'd earn my pay
in exchange for some thrills.
113
00:08:32,500 --> 00:08:36,170
These bastards had the nerve to
bring in a damn tactical nuke,
114
00:08:36,370 --> 00:08:41,370
so I was determined to put the fear of God
into 'em from on high.
115
00:09:04,700 --> 00:09:05,470
What is it?
116
00:09:05,470 --> 00:09:07,160
Forget it.
It's nothing.
117
00:09:17,650 --> 00:09:19,170
That must be them.
118
00:09:20,750 --> 00:09:25,150
They're too worried about being criticized for
attacking medical institutions and churches.
119
00:09:25,820 --> 00:09:28,520
They left too many places
for guerrillas to hide out in.
120
00:09:28,860 --> 00:09:29,850
True enough.
121
00:09:29,930 --> 00:09:33,490
But we've got two platoons
working on wiping out the holdouts.
122
00:09:33,860 --> 00:09:37,960
I sure hope so. You Yanks
are fundamentally sloppy.
123
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:43,170
And I think you Brits put too much faith
in that legendary SAS of yours.
124
00:09:44,370 --> 00:09:46,170
Bloke thinks he's
John Rambo...
125
00:09:51,310 --> 00:09:52,800
Bit start...
126
00:10:03,060 --> 00:10:04,050
Three...
127
00:10:04,930 --> 00:10:05,920
Four...
128
00:10:06,830 --> 00:10:07,630
Five.
129
00:10:15,340 --> 00:10:16,770
Sniper! Take cover!
130
00:10:19,180 --> 00:10:21,640
Ishikawa, assume the sniper's
using a satellite downlink.
131
00:10:21,980 --> 00:10:24,140
Hack the satellite and
pinpoint his location.
132
00:10:24,210 --> 00:10:25,150
Understood!
133
00:10:26,050 --> 00:10:28,450
Why me?
Son of a bitch...
134
00:10:28,790 --> 00:10:30,650
Corporal Mother!
Hold still!
135
00:10:31,050 --> 00:10:32,520
He isn't using
a satellite.
136
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,380
There's a wide-area jammer running
that's got a radius of one kilometer.
137
00:10:35,490 --> 00:10:38,720
Can you use the source of the jamming
signal to determine his position?
138
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:39,950
Already on it.
139
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,360
Damn, you two are good at this.
You been at this a long time?
140
00:10:43,730 --> 00:10:46,220
If you have time for chit-chat,
you've got time to do some recon!
141
00:10:46,300 --> 00:10:47,630
You stupid rookie!
142
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,830
Which way did the fire come from?
Were you able to get a fix?!
143
00:10:51,740 --> 00:10:54,470
The sniper's gonna listen in on us!
Switch to cybercomms!
144
00:10:54,940 --> 00:10:58,040
Just you try, tough guy.
The static's gonna give you a nasty surprise.
145
00:10:58,110 --> 00:10:59,120
Crap!
146
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,280
Sorry, we slipped up. We didn't get
a fix on the enemy's location at all.
147
00:11:03,450 --> 00:11:05,050
We've gotta help
him soon, or...
148
00:11:05,190 --> 00:11:06,710
Hey, Sergeant!
What's the plan?
149
00:11:10,430 --> 00:11:12,830
Ginger!
We'll all cover you!
150
00:11:12,900 --> 00:11:16,700
Go rescue Mother!
Snow, you help Ginger!
151
00:11:17,630 --> 00:11:19,160
Racist bastard...
152
00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:20,800
Hey, Japs!
153
00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:24,700
You guys target the buildings to the west!
The rest, take the buildings to the east!
154
00:11:24,910 --> 00:11:25,870
Let's do it!
155
00:11:31,750 --> 00:11:33,550
You'll be okay.
We're gonna help you.
156
00:11:33,850 --> 00:11:34,780
You got him?
157
00:11:35,050 --> 00:11:35,980
Okay.
158
00:11:41,220 --> 00:11:43,250
Bloody hell! It's the buildings
to the west!
159
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,700
I'd better make you guys wonder
where I am for a little longer.
160
00:11:59,680 --> 00:12:01,370
Now, let's see you sweat.
161
00:12:09,490 --> 00:12:10,650
A 20 millimeter?!
162
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,990
Wait a minute! Stop shooting!
Hold your fire!
163
00:12:17,860 --> 00:12:19,450
Which direction was Ginger
shot from?
164
00:12:19,730 --> 00:12:20,700
From the west.
165
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,320
What're you talking about? Didn't you see
that car get blown to hell just now?!
166
00:12:24,670 --> 00:12:28,070
The enemy's to the east! No, there's a
good chance that we're surrounded!
167
00:12:28,470 --> 00:12:30,530
Ishikawa, where's the jamming
signal coming from?
168
00:12:30,670 --> 00:12:32,270
It's a rough guess, but I'd say
there are three possible places.
169
00:12:32,540 --> 00:12:36,640
One's the building to the east, and the other
two are probably that church and hospital.
170
00:12:37,210 --> 00:12:38,940
You think the one to the east
is a decoy?
171
00:12:39,020 --> 00:12:40,070
Yeah, probably.
172
00:12:40,380 --> 00:12:43,650
Just before the 20mm fire, the jamming
signal cut out for a split second.
173
00:12:43,890 --> 00:12:46,380
Besides, warfare 101 says
to keep the sun at your back.
174
00:12:46,820 --> 00:12:49,550
Sergeant! The one to the east is
a decoy and probably unmanned.
175
00:12:50,490 --> 00:12:52,480
If we were surrounded, we'd be
taking more fire than this!
176
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,390
It's possible that we're only
up against a single sniper!
177
00:12:55,630 --> 00:12:57,160
How the hell can you
be so sure?!
178
00:12:57,630 --> 00:12:59,570
That's what the situation
tells me!
179
00:12:59,940 --> 00:13:04,400
I have a suggestion! I'll circle around the
buildings to the east and get over to you.
180
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,340
If it turns out to be unmanned,
I'll give you a signal.
181
00:13:07,510 --> 00:13:10,780
If I do, have everyone cut loose and
open fire on the church and hospital.
182
00:13:11,210 --> 00:13:13,510
Use that cover to recover the corporal
and the tactical nuke.
183
00:13:14,650 --> 00:13:17,080
Without that,
we're stuck here.
184
00:13:17,820 --> 00:13:19,880
Okay, take Snow
with you!
185
00:13:23,130 --> 00:13:24,960
Taking a detour
to regroup, huh?
186
00:13:25,130 --> 00:13:27,720
I guess they'll find out that the building
to the east is deserted soon.
187
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,190
Before they do, I guess I'll pick off
another one of them.
188
00:13:35,100 --> 00:13:36,500
Just as I thought.
189
00:13:53,590 --> 00:13:55,320
Stay where you are,
Mother!
190
00:13:58,060 --> 00:13:59,650
It was deserted,
just like I thought.
191
00:14:01,030 --> 00:14:03,290
He was smart enough to only
have one round in it.
192
00:14:03,500 --> 00:14:04,770
This guy is really good.
193
00:14:04,770 --> 00:14:07,860
But we're probably only up against one man.
We should use our numbers to pin him.
194
00:14:08,070 --> 00:14:11,100
Okay, the sniper's in the church.
We'll bring the whole damn thing down.
195
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,070
No, it might be
the hospital.
196
00:14:13,740 --> 00:14:15,570
That jamming signal cut out
for a second,
197
00:14:15,680 --> 00:14:20,140
so even if we exclude the ruins we can't find
a transmitter in, we can't rule out the hospital.
198
00:14:20,650 --> 00:14:24,750
How many meters do you think it is between
here and there?! It's the church!
199
00:14:24,990 --> 00:14:31,120
How can you be so sure? This guy is sniping us
while making sure we can't use GPS.
200
00:14:31,630 --> 00:14:35,460
If he's a pro who knows how to compensate
for the Coriolis effect, we'll all be picked off!
201
00:14:37,270 --> 00:14:39,930
What a pain in the ass...
Who cares which one it is?
202
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,870
Don't be in such a hurry. The key to survival
on the battlefield isn't bravery, it's caution.
203
00:14:45,140 --> 00:14:47,130
Take a look at Queen Kong
over there.
204
00:14:47,610 --> 00:14:50,740
When they talk about real pros,
they're talking about people like her.
205
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:52,710
"Queen Kong"?
206
00:14:56,990 --> 00:14:58,350
A woman, huh?
207
00:15:03,030 --> 00:15:03,790
Pickles!
208
00:15:03,860 --> 00:15:04,880
Got him!
209
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,160
The sniper's in the hospital!
Ishikawa!
210
00:15:10,900 --> 00:15:12,530
Shithead!
211
00:15:22,650 --> 00:15:26,510
We retrieved the pod, at least.
It was too late for the Corporal.
212
00:15:30,790 --> 00:15:34,950
All right, let's return to base for now.
We can't stay here and all get wiped out.
213
00:15:35,390 --> 00:15:37,920
Don't be stupid!
He killed Pickles!
214
00:15:38,230 --> 00:15:40,220
We have to avenge him.
That guy's dead!
215
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,560
That's an order! We're returning
to base to regroup!
216
00:15:43,900 --> 00:15:47,800
You can go back if you want, but we'll need
to take out that sniper whatever we do.
217
00:15:48,270 --> 00:15:50,500
As long as our comm gear doesn't work,
we can't call for reinforcements.
218
00:15:50,870 --> 00:15:54,170
She's right. We still have
numerical superiority.
219
00:15:54,610 --> 00:15:57,200
What's it gonna be?
Your own mates got killed, too!
220
00:16:00,450 --> 00:16:01,920
All right. We'll do it
your way.
221
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,760
That's strange... They should be in a panic,
but they're regrouping.
222
00:16:12,190 --> 00:16:14,250
Looks like they've got a good
commanding officer.
223
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,490
I realized that the final showdown
was fast approaching.
224
00:16:21,340 --> 00:16:26,330
The tension shot up, and I felt the rush of
adrenaline right down to the cellular level.
225
00:16:27,610 --> 00:16:31,640
When people kill each other on the battlefield,
you don't know who killed who.
226
00:16:32,210 --> 00:16:36,240
But there's one exception to that rule.
And that's with snipers.
227
00:16:38,820 --> 00:16:42,990
With sharpshooting, the act itself
leaves a calling card attached.
228
00:16:43,290 --> 00:16:46,090
That's why snipers are never
taken prisoner.
229
00:16:46,660 --> 00:16:49,650
It's their fate to be always
killed on the spot...
230
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,400
...as the guy who killed somebody's
buddies or commanding officer.
231
00:16:56,970 --> 00:17:00,370
Once you've pound the building with the
recoilless rifle, cut loose with smoke grenades!
232
00:17:00,710 --> 00:17:02,580
We'll use the smoke
to cover our advance!
233
00:17:03,110 --> 00:17:04,040
Okay, let's...
234
00:17:04,650 --> 00:17:05,550
Wha...?
235
00:17:06,980 --> 00:17:08,310
You shithead!
236
00:17:16,690 --> 00:17:19,790
Okay, cover me!
Snow and I will storm the building!
237
00:17:20,430 --> 00:17:21,920
What am I,
your backup?
238
00:17:22,470 --> 00:17:25,260
Look on the bright side.
This means you've earned her trust.
239
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,340
That's enough.
Leave it to the Major.
240
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,110
She'll improvise
from here.
241
00:17:39,620 --> 00:17:43,110
"The Major"? What's up with that
and that Queen Kong crap?
242
00:17:43,390 --> 00:17:44,850
Who the hell
is that lady?
243
00:17:44,990 --> 00:17:48,950
Hell if I know.
I just know that she's a wiz at combat.
244
00:17:49,030 --> 00:17:52,430
And that all of us
call her the Major.
245
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,070
In that span of less than a second when
I was facing off against the Major,
246
00:18:34,370 --> 00:18:37,810
I pictured the outcome of the exchange
of fire, and the hairs on my neck stood up.
247
00:18:38,340 --> 00:18:41,140
After taking into account
all the factors,
248
00:18:41,410 --> 00:18:45,280
this was the conclusion that my experience
as a sniper arrived at.
249
00:18:45,780 --> 00:18:47,340
I was going to
be killed.
250
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:52,310
From her stance, and the way she was holding
that rifle on her hip without so much as blinking,
251
00:18:52,790 --> 00:18:56,250
I knew instantly that she
was a full-body cyborg.
252
00:18:56,830 --> 00:19:00,460
And that rifle was a full-sensing
semiautomatic.
253
00:19:01,230 --> 00:19:05,690
Naturally, she also had full installs of long-,
mid-, and short-range firing control software.
254
00:19:06,540 --> 00:19:10,900
Just as a test, I visualized what would happen
if I fired a single round at the Major.
255
00:19:21,820 --> 00:19:25,250
She would shoot down my first shot,
and I, with my bolt-action rifle,
256
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,420
would get hit with a second round as
I tried to get back behind the pillar.
257
00:19:29,060 --> 00:19:32,190
I simulated it again and again
and got the same conclusion.
258
00:19:32,630 --> 00:19:34,530
But if you just sat there
and did nothing, you'd...
259
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,790
Yeah. If I stayed put, I'd get
taken out sooner or later.
260
00:19:38,370 --> 00:19:40,390
I thought desperately, trying
to come up with some way...
261
00:19:40,470 --> 00:19:43,030
...that I could turn the tables
in a situation like that.
262
00:19:44,370 --> 00:19:46,670
And that's when something
occurred to me.
263
00:19:46,980 --> 00:19:50,610
I noticed the jamming gear, which was
the first thing that the Major shot.
264
00:19:51,010 --> 00:19:54,920
Why did she use three whole rounds
to destroy it?
265
00:19:56,220 --> 00:20:01,090
Wait a minute... Could it be that she doesn't
have mid-range fire control software installed?
266
00:20:01,390 --> 00:20:02,980
Yes, that's the only
explanation...
267
00:20:03,190 --> 00:20:07,600
She knew the sniper's position, but she used
her full-sensing rifle as a short-barrel.
268
00:20:08,100 --> 00:20:10,460
That's because she's falling back on
the premise that it can be used...
269
00:20:10,530 --> 00:20:12,930
...as a substitute submachinegun
while at medium ranges.
270
00:20:13,370 --> 00:20:17,810
In which case, she needs control software
to snipe against me at this range.
271
00:20:19,110 --> 00:20:23,740
She must be in the middle of downloading
the control software via satellite!
272
00:20:25,210 --> 00:20:26,200
Get there first!
273
00:20:41,230 --> 00:20:43,700
You're pretty good with that rifle,
you bastard.
274
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,030
From now on, I want you
working for me!
275
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,870
The software...
You had it all along!
276
00:20:54,210 --> 00:20:59,080
That's right. The Major's poker face
had me fooled from the very beginning.
277
00:20:59,650 --> 00:21:03,780
And I didn't have any right
to refuse.
278
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:08,280
Because that was the first order
that the Major ever gave me.
279
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:16,520
Deal the last cards.
280
00:21:21,670 --> 00:21:25,070
That was an interesting story, but it's
got nothing to do with this game here.
281
00:21:25,310 --> 00:21:27,280
I raise you.
All in.
282
00:21:29,610 --> 00:21:31,240
I'm all in, too, then.
283
00:21:31,750 --> 00:21:32,940
Stop trying to
play it cool.
284
00:21:33,450 --> 00:21:36,650
This is one match that you're
not gonna bluff your way out of.
285
00:21:37,290 --> 00:21:40,150
You're trying for a royal flush
in spades, right?
286
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,050
But you've got squat.
287
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,690
I know that because I've
got the ace of spades.
288
00:21:50,270 --> 00:21:54,530
You can't possibly win.
And that story was a load of bull, am I right?
289
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,300
It was interesting
and all,
290
00:21:56,370 --> 00:21:59,740
but I seem to recall an old movie with
a plot that was awfully similar to that.
291
00:22:01,540 --> 00:22:04,840
Yeah, you're right.
I made the whole thing up.
292
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,370
Really? You did?
293
00:22:15,090 --> 00:22:19,220
I'm gonna let you guys off easy today.
Azuma, cash me out.
294
00:22:20,430 --> 00:22:22,090
Feeling a bit ashamed
of yourself, huh?
295
00:22:22,230 --> 00:22:24,400
Hey, rookie! Pay up
what he owes!
296
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,060
Geez, talk about self-centered.
Some role model he is...
297
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,570
I wonder if Mr. Saito
really didn't have anything...
298
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,070
Look, everybody!
Look! Look!
299
00:22:35,180 --> 00:22:39,340
His last card was the 9 of spades!
He's got a straight flush!
300
00:22:39,780 --> 00:22:41,080
He's got a what?
301
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,660
So does this mean... that maybe
that story just now was also true?
302
00:22:51,830 --> 00:22:53,320
Could be...
303
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,320
304
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,100
Finding out a galaxy...
305
00:23:13,100 --> 00:23:17,060
...of planets and stars within me...
306
00:23:17,250 --> 00:23:19,720
Listening to each of them...
307
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,710
...singing the same silent melody...
308
00:23:23,710 --> 00:23:27,720
I've never seen such beauty...
309
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,010
In possibility...
310
00:23:31,010 --> 00:23:35,520
No speck of doubt or fear...
311
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,010
Wake up!
312
00:23:37,010 --> 00:23:39,710
I hear a voice,
313
00:23:39,710 --> 00:23:43,650
hear a voice calling out to me...
314
00:23:43,650 --> 00:23:46,160
I see inside,
315
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,690
see the light now ever holding me...
316
00:23:49,690 --> 00:23:53,030
All the truth, all I need...
317
00:23:53,030 --> 00:23:57,830
...to make of this reality, it's inside...
318
00:23:57,830 --> 00:24:03,640
The beauty within the shell...
319
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,340
I hear a voice,
320
00:24:06,340 --> 00:24:10,280
hear a voice calling out to me...
321
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,790
I see inside,
322
00:24:12,790 --> 00:24:16,320
see the light now ever holding me...
323
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,660
All the truth, all I need...
324
00:24:19,660 --> 00:24:24,460
