[L]one wolf

Give me a break.
This is happening
because she doesn't have any.
We kill her before the infection spreads.
I said I'm on it.
- Captain!
- Hurry!
If we don't kill it, it'll kill us.
You guys are family, aren't you?
Get up there, Lily!
Lily.
You were groaning.
Were you dreaming about something?
We'll be proceeding on foot from here.
We're counting on you
for continued guidance.
That wasn't a dream.
Those were my
my memories.
Launching hostile machine lifeform
detection system.
Is this another order from the Bunker?
No, this is at my discretion.
Setting up radars like this is a pain,
but it's important work.
I see.
Perhaps you're wondering if we can detect
machine lifeforms with a device like this?
How should I answer that?
- As you please.
- I am wondering.
I knew it.
But unfortunately for you, we can still
detect them with a device like this.
Report. Hostile machine lifeform
detection system shutdown.
What?
Perhaps you're thinking, "You're taking
too long, Nines," or something?
I'm not thinking that.
I'm glad.
I'm thinking,
"You're taking too long, 9S."
Oh, wow.
Pod, what's the reason?
Report. Caused by an error
in installation No. 2.
Oh, that far back?
I'll go fix it right away,
so please proceed.
Pod.
I've been wondering.
Why is it that until now,
YoRHa Soldiers and the Resistance
never took a stance of formal cooperation?
Hurry up and go.
Yes, yes, I'll hurry.
Lily, if you doze off because you're bored,
nightmares will haunt you again.
What's wrong?
Do we dream?
We don't.
There was a time
when we worked together.
We Resistance
rescued a newer model of androids.
During their descent for a top-secret operation,
they were assaulted by machine lifeforms.
We met only four units.
They said their squad name
was "YoRHa."
The previous generation of YoRHa Soldiers.
Why are you talking to me about this?
I don't know why.
But
When I look at you, I'm reminded of No. 2,
who was the leader of YoRHa.
Because all No. 2 models
use the same synthetic body.
That might be why I'm telling you this.
YoRHa requested assistance.
There was a server
for controlling machine lifeforms,
and they wanted to destroy it.
However, they had no backup from Command.
They were isolated and helpless.
It was an operation that they couldn't
complete with just the four of them.
The Resistance wasn't made aware
of anything like that.
That's why we doubted them,
thinking it was an enemy trap.
The situation looked like it will be a bloodbath,
but that was when No. 2 shouted
Right now, what we need are allies.
It was the voice of someone
who still had hope,
despite being crushed
by the hopelessness of the situation.
That's why our captain
Enough.
No. 2, we'll head out on our own.
- Huh? Wait
- We’re wasting time.
Wait.
Listen.
For the past few decades,
we've been fighting a war of attrition.
With no clear measures to take,
we had no other option
but to spend our days where our comrades,
our family, gradually dwindled in number.
By that
They were also denied their backup.
They're a squadron tossed aside.
They're no different from us.
However
Then, how are you going to fight
with those things in the Pacific Ocean?
Will we continue this drawn-out battle
against infinitely multiplying machine lifeforms,
and watch our family numbers
dwindle while doing nothing at all?
What we need to do in this battlefield
is to not sit idly and simply survive.
You're right.
There's something we need to do
for all the family members that we've lost.
That's the spirit.
But these folks aren't our family.
The enemy that YoRHa
needs to defeat is the same as ours.
Right?
The captain chose to fight alongside YoRHa.
Am I not getting the point across?
I get it.
This is what you mean, right?
If we go to the top of Mt. Ka'ala,
there will be an elevator hall.
There's an entrance camouflaged as a rock.
We found it with infrared analysis via satellite.
We don't care about that.
And the elevator heads straight down
underground from that landing.
Straight down is not accurate.
Actually, it draws a helix—
In any case, if we head down
with that elevator,
we can clobber the server
of those machine lifeforms?
If we don't, those guys
in the Pacific Ocean won't stop.
That's right.
How did you determine
the server's location?
That is a military secret.
I cannot tell you.
So the key part is a secret?
Please understand.
Captain Rose,
can we fight together with them like this?
I can't trust them.
Lily.
When the time comes for you to become
the head of the household,
you'll be making the same decision
that I'm making right now.
That’s a cute gun.
Lily hates that gun
because it looks like a child's toy.
So I see.
I'm sorry, that was rude.
Don't worry, Lily.
You’re fine the way you are.
Don't mock her too much.
I didn't mean to!
Right, No. 21?
I was faster!
Admit defeat.
Give me a break! That was
an overwhelming defeat for you.
Hey, what are they doing?
Huh? Wanna go at it?
A race to fill water.
Stop it, both of you.
Please calm down!
That's enough.
That was delicious.
She drank it all.
More, please.
Round Two?
Captain Rose.
Lily is
I was infected with the enemy logic-virus.
If left alone, it would overwrite my data,
take over my body, and that would be the end.
There's no cure once you get infected, so
Are you really going to shoot her?
We kill her before the infection spreads.
That's what we've always done.
If we don't kill it, it'll kill us.
But
What about shields? They aren't working?
This is happening
because she doesn't have any.
What power
No. 4, No. 16, hold her down.
No. 21.
Please cure Lily.
That's impossible!
If we don't hurry,
she’ll become unmanageable.
Captain!
Forgive me.
Lily.
You guys are family, aren't you?
Wait!
Get back here!
Damn this ridiculous power.
Stay still already!
Reprogramming. Start.
Don't get close. You'll get infected!
Shut up! Lower that gun!
Captain.
Not yet, No. 21?
I'm not sure if I can do this
under these circum—
Stop it!
Because I wasn't made for combat,
everyone keeps protecting me.
I want to save everyone else
just as much!
Captain.
I don't want to lose comrades
and Lily, anymore.
I
Rose, believe in your comrades.
It's the captain's job
to protect your comrades, right?
Vaccine installed.
Launching virus removal program.
Hurry!
Just a bit more.
Everyone, keep at it!
Forcing system restart.
Lily?
Lily.
Lily!
Lily?
Lily!
Lily.
Everyone saved me.
No. 2 helped to save me.
And what happened to the operation?
By the time we approached the server area,
300,000 enemy units had already converged.
300,000? What about backup?
Of course there were none.
That's how those guys
on the moon do things.
Was the operation a failure?
If it failed, I wouldn't be here, would I?
Then all the comrades from back then
are still around somewhere?
We were sacrificial pawns.
I repeat.
YoRHa Soldiers, please promptly head
to the elevator with the current forces on hand.
Give me a break.
Hurry up and send us some backup!
Where is the Commander?
I request a reply from the Commander!
This is a direct order
from the Commander.
That can't be
Please! Get another
confirmation from the Comman—
Command. Command!
We're going to engage.
Now!
Serves you right.
Gerbera, get a—
Look out, Lily!
Captain, please go on ahead.
I will hold them off.
Stop that, idiot. You can't win
against this many of them.
I don't wanna hear anything logical
coming from your mouth.
Then I’ll remain here with you.
I can't leave this
in the hands of one idiot.
Who's the idiot?
YoRHa Soldier, Gunner No. 16.
Entering enemy squad feint attack mission
on Mt. Ka'ala with the Resistance.
But
No! Both of you will die, too.
If I'm with her,
I won't die all that easily.
Don't drag me down, idiot.
Now go!
The elevator is not functioning.
The enemy has placed
a protective program on it.
We must remove that blockage.
Hurry up and remove it.
I'm on it now.
There are limits on how long
the guys outside can hold.
I said I'm on it.
They're coming.
It opened.
Okay, hurry.
I will remain here and continue hacking.
Please go on ahead.
Why?
If I interrupt this operation,
the elevator will not move.
What? You're going to stay here alone?
Just hurry up.
The enemy is closing in.
I'll remain here and protect No. 21.
Anemone!
I'm trusting you with the server.
No. 21 has been infected.
Anemone has noticed as well.
Don't waste their determination.
It's my fault.
No. 21 will be able to remove the virus.
I hope so.
I'm having a nightmare.
Do we dream?
We don't.
It would be nice if it was a dream.
Then we engaged in combat with the enemy
that was at the server,
and Captain Rose
was injured covering for me.
That's why I think No. 2
made us go back to the elevator.
She told us two to evacuate.
I don't remember all too well.
What remains in my memory is
Captain Rose?
You should go alone.
We'll do something about the server
by the time you make it up.
Captain?
I still want you
to keep thinking about the future.
No! Captain, come with—
Get up there, Lily!
I'm sorry.
Because I was here, everyone
You're going to save everyone, right?
Then don't forget.
Engrave it into your memory.
Use that to protect.
I won't forget.
All of you.
How we were together.
How we fought.
How you saved me.
I will never forget!
We androids don't dream,
and we have no souls.
But our memories are genuine.
The memories from back then
form who you are now.
You're quite calm.
What kind of memories do you have, 2B?
What if one of your comrades
from back then
was somewhere out there
right now, and still alive?
That’s a nice dream to have.
POD 042 REPORTING TO ALL OF MANKIND.
WE WILL NOW EXECUTE THE TASK
OF INTRODUCING THE MULTIPLE ENDINGS
FOR THE VIDEO GAME "NIER:AUTOMATA." OVER.
PUPPET PLAY
NIER:AUTOMATA
“ADAM AND EVE”
Hey, Brother.
What's with these outfits?
It is said humans wear clothing classified
as "uniforms" when they gain knowledge.
And call me "elder brother,"
not "brother."
So that's it.
Figures you'd know, Brother.
"Elder Brother."
Is that interesting?
Maybe I'll try reading it later.
Can we go play
when you're done reading that?
I found a secret base underground.
It's like a withered plant bulb.
Brother, come on, come on,
come on, Brother.
Mackerels bite with every cast.
Huh? Brother?
Where are you going?
Hey. Hey!
Fed up, Adam left the camp to its fate and decided to
Go fishing?
Yeah, that's it. Fishing.
With a smile on his face, he packed up
and
