Space Battleship Yamato 2199 (2012) s01e18 Episode Script

Over the Black Light

1
So Balun's on the other side, huh?
Wasn't this supposed to be a lighthouse?
Yeah.
It surprised us, too. We had no idea Balun was a warp network's hub station.
But with it, we can head straight for the Large Magellanic Cloud.
It won't be that easy. This is enemy tech, after all.
Yeah
Of course, Misaki was a bigger surprise.
I can't believe she was being possessed by an Iscandarian.
Will Misaki be able to return to normal?
With her help, we managed to get the gate control system back on line.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Show me your gratitude with action, not words.
We're loading a simplified version of the system onto a captured Garmillas fighter.
It's a dangerous mission Who will be the Balun recon pilot?
The fighter squad captain will choose. I'll notify you once it's been decided.
I wish they'd picked me.
Don't covet all the glory.
Come back soon, okay?
Hey, you guvs!
It's been decided, so scram!
Bye.
Good luck.
Don't screw up.
Back to your stations!
We were just trying to cheer him up.
Hey, Shinohara
Yes, sir?
Try to relax a little.
I'm surprised.
Volunteering for this kind of mission isn't like you.
What are you thinking?
A long time ago When I was still a trainee.
I saw one of our fighters flying, and it was so beautiful.
I don't know how to put it
It was just flying, high overhead But it was strong and noble.
And at that time, I thought it was the most beautiful thing in the world.
I later heard that it was a recon plane.
You know, I actually wanted to be in recon
Huh?
Let me tell you one thing.
A recon pilot's job is to return.
So be sure you do. Got it?
Goergametsch, take off!
The Field Marshal will soon arrive.
Escort fleet, to your positions.
Repeat, the Field Marshal will soon arrive.
Five seconds until Geschtam Jump.
Three, two, one
We have arrived at Balun on time.
The Goergametsch requests permission to come alongside.
I suppose that's Goer.
Yes.
Thank you for coming to this isolated location.
I am so honored that you've decided to hold such a huge naval review at Balun.
Even now, more ships gather
The Empire is in greater peril than ever before.
And it falls to me to bring it together!
Three hours?
That's correct.
He has to recon the area, and locate the Magellanic gate in a mere three hours?
He's agreed to it.
Agreed?
If we can't use the gate, we have to leave as quickly as possible.
So when time runs out, we're leaving immediately?!
Sword 3 to control.
Ready to launch.
Permission granted.
Sword 3, roger.
See you soon.
Taking off.
Beginning phase 1.
We've lost Sword 3's physical signal.
It's been isolated from normal space.
Navigation Officer, give me the plan for our last chance to use the gate.
Yes, sir.
When time expires, we leave at once, without waiting for Sword 3.
This place is pretty crazy
Garmillans?
What?
Nothing on radar, huh?
All I can rely on
is this, huh?
That call sign?
His choice.
Sword 3 was a call sign used by the 343rd Squadron.
I never thought I'd hear it out here.
You always said it was part of recon's job to return, but
Brother
Shinohara will be fine.
He'll come back.
He definitely will.
Approaching gate. Entering phase 2.
Brace for shock.
Huh? Seriously?!
43rd Milky Way Theater Carrier Strike Group, move to designated area.
The 124th Torpedo Squadron is now arriving.
Upon arrival, all ships are to move to designated positions.
Repeat, upon arrival, all ships are to move to designated positions.
I didn't think I'd survive that
A-Are these
Are all these Garmillans?
How is the Imperial Marshal doing?
He's so happy, I can read it in his coded message.
It sounds like he's feeling like a king.
So this is no mere astro naval review. Contact me if there are any issues.
But of course Loyalty is my life!
Delheid theater forces now arriving. This is the 66th Astro Corps, from Zelloom.
What a splendid sight
This dignity, this power This is Garmillas!
What are they all doing here?
Ten thousand No, maybe more.
The Magellanic gate?
What is this?
An artificial object at the planet's center?
Okay
Unidentified Czvarke!
What is your squad?!
Watch your formation!
We're in the midst of a review!
- Oh, that got them mad
Sorry, but I have things to do too!
11 Minutes to Warp
Bring secondary engines on line.
No!
We will prepare to leave area.
This is the patrol squad.
We are in pursuit of a suspicious, unidentified craft.
Understood. Permission to fire granted.
- Out of the way!
I'm going to be like they were!
Fly strong, fly noble Fly beautiful!
Fly
Moving to phase 3.
Wow, look at this thing
So how's Shinohara doing?
Luckily, his wounds were minor, and he was otherwise unhurt.
We'll give him a thorough physical when he wakes up, but
"Eh, don't worry,"
the doctor said.
This is the data he retrieved.
An artificial object at the center?
Yes, Balun is an artificial planet, with a central energy plant to power the gate.
Fortunately, we've confirmed that the Magellanic gate is functional.
But the problem is
that the Garmillans have an enormous force of over ten thousand ships there.
That's
It's impossible.
We have already plotted our other course.
Captain, we should change plans, and leave immediately.
No.
We hold our course.
Our best chance is to go straight through them.
Proud soldiers of Garmillas, and my courageous friends
I have sad and painful news for you, who carry the glory of Garmillas.
Indeed
Our Empire's noble ruler, our great Leader, Abelt Desler, has passed away!
As our nation faces this peril, who must lead us next?
My soul shakes at this great task.
As I share in this sorrow with you
Here and now, I vow to you!
I shall carry out our great Leader's will,
and bring justice to the central government criminals who conceal his death.
If you would fight with me, then rise.
Wipe out the criminals who infest the government in Baleras!
All of them, without mercy! We must not
What?
What is this?!
Something is at the galactic theater gate. A foreign ship has entered the area.
The gate is opening.
Combat speed 1.
Open fire
Open fire!
The Terron ship is breaking through the 6th Army,
Heading for Balun.
- What luck
This is a message from the gods, that I should destroy the Yamato.
Open fire!
As a gift to our fallen Leader, sink the horrid Terron ship.
Ghale Garmillan!
Maintain heading.
Increase speed.
Increasing speed Black 20.
This is how Admiral Okita fights.
Allies are between us! We can't fire at the Terron ship!
Don't let them fire with so many ships around!
We're losing more ships!
What are you doing? The ships are too close!
Split them!
No!
Surround and crush it.
But then our ships
I don't care.
History is only made through sacrifice.
But
All ships, change course! Don't be afraid
Strength through numbers!
Concentrate fire forward.
Tear a hole through them!
Enemy ships are closing!
Shield on port side, breached!
Lower the bulkheads.
Gun turrets, report!
Damage control.
We're caught in Balun's gravity well!
Terron ship has been sunk. It's crashing on Balun.
Calculating crash point.
Mel-106, nar-68.
The Yamato has perished at Balun.
Had you been unable to sink that ship,
you'd have embarrassed the name of the wolf, Domel.
You're in a good mood, Zoellik.
Y-You
I was so very moved by your speech.
Lord Desler!
That's impossible!
Your ship sank
You are quite a stupid man.
Then, it was a double that died?
Cerestella was well aware of your assassination plot
You've saved me from a very boring trip.
Now, then Your crimes are clear.
But have you any final words, Zoel--
No It's not true!
My fellows,
I only took on the mantle of traitor out of love for my country
Goer, you fool
Sir!
Traitor.
General Goer!
What is it?
Something's rising near Balun's equator!
It's the Yamato! The Yamato is climbing!
What?!
All crew to battle stations!
Wave Motion Gun is on line.
Increase engine power. Seal emergency vents.
Adjust course 180 degrees.
Open the firing vent.
Activate force injector.
Activation confirmed.
Releasing safety.
Pressure rising in chamber.
Adjust ship heading.
Target locked.
Ready to disable gravity anchor.
Fire Wave Motion Gun!
That gun of theirs
Those idiots. What are they aiming at?
Emergency! Emergency!
Balun energy core is out of control! It's going to explode!
N-No!
R-Retreat!
Get out of this system now!
Disable gravity anchor. All crew, brace for impact.
The Large Magellanic Cloud.
Yeah, that's the Large Magellanic Cloud.
We made it, didn't we?
I've returned To my own sea of stars.
Episode 18: Over the Black Light
They arrive at the distant Large Magellanic Cloud.
The Space Wolf is unleashed.
His eyes are like fire, his fangs like swords.
Each wields their knowledge against the other to further their ends.
Next time: They're Coming!
There are 246 days left before humanity is extinct.
