Video of this chapter
Last time, we defeated Neo Zeon once and for all. Now, onto D.O.M.E.
[Nahel Argama, Bridge]
We’ll be able to see the transmission facility soon.
…It’s too quiet. We haven’t been attacked for a bit now.
How boring. I was sure we’d be dodging Satellite Cannons the whole time.
Don’t jinx it.
W-what the hell is that!?
What is it?
Look at the facility…
Are those DG Cells!?
Hurry and analyze it!
The results are in… Wow… More than half the facility is infected with DG Cells.
My god.
Is this a nightmare…?
Look over there!
Speak of the Devil Gundam!
So they won’t let us in that easily.
All units, launch! Destroy them!
Space Route Chapter 31: I am Duminas…
There’s something strange about that Devil Gundam.
It’s almost completely integrated with the facility. I’d assume it has control over most of its functions.
Basically we gotta defeat it to get inside.
If the Devil Gundam is here, then does that mean Despinis is here too!?
quote:
Is Despinis not here?
quote:
Uuuu… Domon…
Master!
What a sad reunion between master and disciple.
I don’t dislike these tear-jerkers.
Bastards! Prepare yourself!
Neo Zeon battleship approaching!
What!?
Damn you! D.O.M.E. isn’t for Oldtypes!
Seidel, huh? Are you still obsessed with Newtypes after all this time?
Now you’ll taste our power.
I’m still here!
Bastards!
That Newtype obsessed moron showed his face here. That’s why I attacked him.
Newtypes are our mortal enemies. Then again, so are you.
So you won’t negotiate.
Fine then. You’re making a huge mistake if you think something like that will stop us!
Let’s go!
Deploy 13 units. The Main Character and Domon are forced deploys. For all intents and purposes, this is the G Gundam finale. Maybe the Gundam X finale too.
…I have to hurry…
See that Devil Gundam in the middle of the base? If you don’t get rid of that, the enemy will literally have endlessly respawning reinforcements that trigger when there are 8 or less enemies left on the map. I got things to do, so I rushed to destroy it as soon as possible. Up to you if you want to take advantage of these infinite enemies to grind exp and/or money.
If you didn’t save Master Asia from Despinis all the way back in the Shin Getter chapter, you’ll have to fight him here in the Devil Gundam. But since we did, it’s only a Zombie Soldier, thus making that fight a cakewalk.
When there are 8 enemies left…
Everyone, look over there!
[Enemies spawn]
I don’t care how many there are. I’ll crush them one by one!
When there are 8 enemies left a second time…
Whoa! More incoming!
[More spawn]
I get it! It’s the Devil Gundam! They’re just being created by that Gundam!
So that means this won’t end until we defeat it?
You’re kidding!
quote:
If this becomes a war of attrition, we’ll be at a disadvantage.
And then the third time…
More of them!
[More spawn]
Hey! Do something about it already!
There are only quotes for the first three times.
A quick boss dialog if Master Asia is still under Duminas’ control.
quote:
Master! I know what you want. Now’s the time for you to rest in peace forever!
Uuuu…
Master Asia or no, the Devil Gundam goes down. Firstly, this is if you did have to defeat the Undefeated.
quote:
[Devil Gundam explodes but spawns again]
Grah…
I-it’s still moving?
So this is self-regeneration…
D-Domon…
Master…
I’ll somehow stop this thing from moving… Hurry, use the Sekiha Tenkyoken on me…
Master…
As long as I’m alive, the Devil Gundam will keep moving. If even a little bit of my body remains, Duminas will revive me. But half hearted measures won’t solve anything… Destroy every cell of my body. That’s the only way!
…I understand.
[Domon maxes out on will]
Heh… No matter how many times I die, I’ll never get used to it…
Master. Even though I’m an unworthy disciple… Here I go!
School of the Undefeated of the East!
The Winds of the King!!
Zenshin Keiretsu!
Tenpa Kyoran!!
LOOK, THE EAST IS BURNING RED!!
[Insert a battle scene of Domon using Sekiha Tenkyoken on Master Asia]
(Finally…)
[He explodes]
Master… I won’t say goodbye. You’ll always be by my side.
That’s odd. The Grand Master Gundams aren’t disappearing.
But that’s in a different timeline. Let’s go back to our normal one.
Yes! We’ve almost won!
…That’s odd. The Grand Master Gundams aren’t disappearing.
But we defeated the Devil Gundam.
Is there another force that can control these Gundams besides Devil?
There’s only one thing that can… Show yourself, Duminas!!!
(Domon says this line if you had to kill Master Asia here.)
Super Robot Wars R - Original Sin
There it is…
So that’s…
Just like I remember… DUMINAS!!
My name is Duminas… I was told that my very existence was a mistake…
Huh? I know you have evil intent… But I sense no malice…
What is that thing? Is it a living being or a machine?
…I can’t answer that question because I don’t know myself.
You don’t know!?
Correct. I don’t know… Am I a living thing, a machine, or somewhere in between… All I know is that I am Duminas.
What do you mean!?
Duminas… When translated into an Earth language, it means “mistake”, “failure”, or “error”... That’s what I’m called. That’s why I call myself that.
Who called you that?
My parent. My creator… When I was born into this world, my creator said this… “Your birth was a mistake. Your very existence is a mistake. You are Duminas!”... And so, I am Duminas…
What’s your purpose!?
That’s…what I’m seeking. So I ask THE BOYS, what is my purpose?
W-what is it talking about?
Are you unable to answer? This is the answer I seek in order for me to exist… Despinis!
…Yes.
Eh?
Wha--?
Status report!
There was an explosion in the residential area! We have an intruder!!
Ugh…
Ugh…
Raji! Mizuho!!
I need these two. Despinis, leave with them,
Yes.
Wait! Give them back!
quote:
What do you want with them!? Give them back!!
UWAAAAAAA!!
Raul!
Lord Duminas, I have them…
Go.
Dammit… Wait…
quote:
Raji… Ugh…
Bastard!
Are you going to fight me…
Not just that! I’m going to kick your ass!
Then I’ll fight back… I want to exist…
B-BASTAAAAAARRRRD!
[Raul/Fiona gains 30 will and regains full health]
Well crap. Not only do we have to fight off the Frost Brothers, but Duminas too. None of them retreat at low HP, so focus on one at a time.
Now we can get a proper look at Duminas, or rather Duminas Proton. It has HP and EN regen, but no MAP attack. Try to burst him down in a single turn, taking advantage of defensive spirits as well.
Are you trying to start another war between humans!?
Human history is a history of war… Isn’t it natural that wars keep happening?
Don’t make such arbitrary arguments!
Do you know what’ll happen if you mess with the Satellite System?
I know very well. War will break out. The world will end.
If you know, then why?
To create a world that revolves around us.
How can you justify something like that!?
It’s because of the world that we’re like this!
No boss quote with Duminas. Eventually, all three bosses will fall.
Impossible. This is impossible!
B-brother!
You’re trying to erase my existence. All because my existence is a mistake… But I want to exist…
[It explodes]
Did you do it!?
No. That explosion was a decoy. It looks like it got away.
That wasn’t that big of a deal.
Next time it’ll be saying its prayers.
Raji… Mizuho…
The map ends when all enemies are defeated.
[Ra Cailum, Deck]
That Despinis girl is the worst. Not only did she kidnap the two of them, she even destroyed the new Frame.
We should have noticed.
If they need the Time Flow Engine, they’ll need its developer, Raji. I guess it makes sense when you think about it.
Dammit. I’m going to save them!!
That’s the spirit.
Anyway, let’s search this facility.
quote:
But… They…
Hey, why’re you so depressed? If you have the energy to mope, you have the energy to think how you’re going to save them!
She’s right. Anyway, let’s search the facility.
There might be a clue as to where Duminas is.
Okay. Let’s go!
quote:
Y-you’re right. Got it.
[Microwave Facility, Hangar]
Hey, isn’t that an escape pod?
Based on the type, it’s from the Sadalahn.
You mean Seidel is still alive!?
Calm down. Even if he is still alive, he can’t do anything now.
Huh?
This… I’ve felt this before…
D.O.M.E…
Are you…calling us?
Judau, this way!
[Microwave Facility, D.O.M.E.]
What is this place? It’s so bland.
It looks like a planetarium.
I-it’s you!
Seidel!
Gotcha. I’ll be holding onto this.
Hey! Give me back my gun! Goddamn Oldtype!
You’re still going on about that? Dumbass.
Aren’t you satisfied enough with turning the first Newtype into this!?
Into what?
This is D.O.M.E.'s control room. D.O.M.E., no, the entire facility is the first Newtype themself!
…So they’re a kind of biological computer?
But as a result of being infected by Duminas and DG Cells, most of the systems are no longer in their control.
Is that why the G-Bits attacked us?
You Oldtypes tried to overcome the fear within yourselves by using Newtypes. The jealousy of the powerless has derailed human history.
You asshole! Do you even hear what you’re saying?
Seidel, Newtypes aren’t gods. They’re not tools or messiahs. And they certainly shouldn’t be used by anyone!
Besides, Newtypes aren’t as great as you think.
Newtypes are without a doubt the next stage of human evolution, baptized by the universe…
Shut up!
Don’t use Newtypes as a center for your ideology. If you do that, humans will just keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again.
Distorted power makes everything go wrong.
…!
Here we go again…
Hey, D.O.M.E. or whatever you are. Show yourself! You’re just making things more complicated!
[A screen turns on]
What’s that?
A hallucination…
…
…So you’re D.O.M.E…
I am D.O.M.E… Someone who was once called a Newtype…
(D.O.M.E.)
This is D.O.M.E… the will of the first Newtype who still exists despite losing their body.
You’ve come a long way, Tiffa Adill. And all you other Newtypes.
It’s because we understand each other… But war keeps raging on…
War… I can’t believe humans are still doing that without getting bored of it.
It’s necessary for the revolution of mankind.
The revolution of mankind? That’s why we, or more accurately, the word Newtype, has continued to be used.
You’re saying I’m just using Newtypes?
We interpret Newtypes in whatever way suits us and use their powers. In that respect, we’re all the same.
Why would the first Newtype say something like that? You have power, don’t you? There’s no point in not using it.
Aren’t Newtypes the supposed innovation of mankind?
No. Superhuman powers and the evolution of man are two different things. Among the people who lose confidence in war, there are those who gain special powers. Others call them Newtypes. It doesn’t matter to them what the nature of those powers are.
Indeed. Back then, the term Newtype only had a vague definition.
There was a time when anyone with psychic powers was considered a Newtype.
People had both excessive expectations and fear of Newtypes. That’s why they had no choice but to either use them in war or imprison them to prevent them from using their powers.
Aren’t Newtypes our future?
You don’t have to be a Newtype to create the future. Look at THE BOYS. The Mazinger Team, the Getter Team, Dendoh’s chosen ones, the young men and women who control the Super EM robots. They’re not Newtypes, but they have the power to create the future.
D.O.M.E., your example is inappropriate. It’s not just warriors who make the future.
You are correct. Everyone should be able to do that. But those who cling to the term Newtype will exclude everyone else.
To me, Newtypes are something to believe in. I can’t just deny them now!
Unless you yourself can break free from that shackle, Spacenoids have no future.
So you’re saying we shouldn’t deny Newtypes, but we shouldn’t be obsessed with them either.
Tiffa Adill.
Yes.
The moment you met Garrod was when you first acknowledged your own power. You desired to become stronger.
Because I didn’t want the future where I live with Garrod to be sad.
Do you still acknowledge your power?
I don’t hate it… But I want to live as a normal human if I can.
Then just forget the word Newtype.
So the reason you called us was…
I didn’t want to see my fellow Newtypes get tied down or be at the mercy of a single word. You yourselves must create the future. If a single word gets in the way of that, then it’d be better if it never existed.
There’s something else I need to ask you.
About Duminas? They’ve been here for a long time now. I apologize, for there was nothing I could do about it.
It’s too late to apologize now. Where did they go?
I don’t know.
You, the first Newtype, don’t know?
Even I don’t know everything.
What is it anyway? What’s their purpose?
I don’t know… But I know what they’re like. They have no ill will, but having their creator deny their existence is what makes them what they are now.
No ill will? How could they do something what they did to Master without any ill will?
Pure hearts can be the most cruel.
It doesn’t understand the pain of others. It’s just like a child who kills insects out of curiosity.
Garrod, Tiffa, and everyone else. This is the end of the old era. The future is yours to create. Farewell.
Please don’t go! What will become of us without Newtypes!?
Stop it. There’s no need for a world that can’t exist without Newtypes.
quote:
There’s nothing we can do. We just have to live in the present, so that the current and next generations can live…
[Microwave Facility, Hangar]
A little to the left. A little more.
Are those G-Bits? What’re you gonna do with those?
We’re gonna modify them so that the GX and DX can use them instead of D.O.M.E.
But you have to be a Newtype to use the Flash System.
In that case, only I, Lancerow, and Jamil can use them.
quote:
But don’t you need to be a Newtype to use them?
Yeah. I guess only I or Jamil can use them.
Don’t worry. If I ride with Garrod, we can use it too.
Tiffa…
Are you sure? Using the G-Bits means you’ll be fighting too.
…I want to do whatever I can to help Garrod survive.
How sweet. Must be nice. I wish someone would say that to me.
Tifa, there’s no need to push yourself.
It’s fine.
So any unit that Tiffa is in can use the G-Bits?
Good luck getting her to help anyone besides Garrod.
Of course.
[Nahel Argama, Bridge]
What’ll happen to Seidel?
He’ll be taken back to Earth and will probably stand trial along with Dekim.
I almost feel sorry for him.
I feel worse for Raul…
[Nahel Argama, Deck]
Dammit…
Hey, no matter how much we look at it, the Lightning Frame isn’t gonna fix itself.
Dammit. What should we do? They got kidnapped and the Lightning is in ruins…
quote:
…Haaaaa…
What’s wrong with you? You’ve become an idiot.
It must’ve hit hard when her friends got kidnapped.
And even the Eternal Frame is in tatters.
If it’s broken to this extent, there’s little we can do.
I just left the Excellence to those two.
I’m no expert on the Time Flow Engine either.
I guess we have to give up on this…
quote:
Ah well. Hey, can I throw out this broken Frame?
Throw out… You want to get rid of the Eternal!?
There’s no point in leaving it like this here. At this point it’d be better if we recycled it for parts for other mechs.
…
[Nahel Argama, A Room]
It’s not just Newtypes that can create the future…huh?
That’s right. It’s something that kids like Tiffa, Garrod, Hokuto, and Ginga can create. Isn’t it our role to believe in the future and protect the world?
I’ll think about it after this battle is over. I fear I’ll lose my freedom again.
A big job like that requires a human sacrifice of two.
Am I a human sacrifice?
Maybe you come from a family of sacrifices…
[Meteo, Hallway]
Wow! This is Meteo!?
This is what brought Vice Commander Vega and Dendoh here from the Galfa homeworld.
And it was GEAR HQ’s foundation.
How’d you like it? Surprised?
Yeah. It’s beyond my wildest imagination. It sure is an alien spaceship.
Does it work?
Not right now. It’s still being repaired.
But once it does work, it’ll be able to go into outer space while mooring the Nadesico and Nahel Argama.
Really? That’s incredible.
[Meteo, Command Room]
It looks just like GEAR HQ.
Of course it does. GEAR HQ was based off of Meteo.
So this is the original.
Welcome back. I’ve heard Reika’s report. That must have been tough.
It was. How was it here?
We’ve repelled the Galfa, but, well, you can see HQ.
We also managed to destroy the Gaizok too!
The damages are great, but it seems to have been worth it.
I just got a call from Anaheim. THey’re sending us a new battleship and new mobile suits.
Nergal is also planning to send us a large number of new Aestivalises.
Good. We need to prepare our forces while the enemy can’t counterattack.
[Meteo, Hangar]
Correct… And this lever is…
Hey Subaru. What’s up?
I’m learning how to pilot the Cell Fighter and Valhalla.
Are you sure?
Yeah. I’ve been causing you all a lot of trouble. I have to pay you back somehow.
Who’s the kid?
You mean Subaru?
Like Altair, he was used by Galfa and was forced to fight. But he’s on our side now.
Lord Subaru, your tea is ready.
Here you go.
Here you go.
Who’re the three stooges here?
They’re Subaru’s plus ones.
I don’t know anything about them, but they didn’t want to get scrapped so they surrendered.
Now they’re gophers for THE BOYS. Honestly it’s been super helpful.
Hey three idiots, have you restocked the vending machines yet?
I forgot.
Let’s do it now.
Where’s the stock?
Good grief. Don’t be a bother.
Altair, how are you feeling?
A lot better, but not good enough to be a pilot yet.
Here comes the new Aestivalis Customs!
It’s a lot more maneuverable than the previous Aestis, but it’s more difficult to control.
Don’t worry. I’ll master it in no time.
And this is an Aestivalis with superior firepower. It’s called the Super Aestivalis!
Wow, what a cool-ass name! I’ve decided. I’m calling dibs!
It’s all yours.
Hey, what’s this one with the black armor?
That’s additional armor for Akito’s Aestivalis Custom.
It’s the only prototype we have of it.
Its special feature is a small Phase Transition Engine built into the armor.
In other words, you don’t have to worry about running out of energy even if you leave the Nadesico’s range.
Exactly! This armor will solve the Aesti’s energy problem!
And that’s not all. Eventually it’ll be able to perform Boson Jumps on its own.
So it can appear instantly anywhere and operate independently?
Unfortunately it’s not that simple. For now, it can’t do any Boson Jumps.
Well, just bear with it and think of it as gathering data.
Why my unit though?
Because you’re the only pilot with the potential for Bio-Boson Jumps.
I can’t do it!
It’s not possible right now anyway.
But if you put that armor on the Aestivalis Custom, it’ll be pretty bulky.
It has boosters and other features added, so there shouldn’t be any problems. By the way, its development name is “Black Sarena”
Black Sarena… A Black Hydrangea…
quote:
By the way, we’ve also added in a high mobility attachment. If you feel like it, try it out.
Also we have another machine here that we developed along with the Black Sarena, called the “Alstroemeria”.
Alstroemeria… So it’s named after the Peruvian Lily…
This unit also has a small Phase Transition Engine built into it, so it can do short distance Boson Jumps.
Just look at those claws. It’s perfect for close quarters. Awesome!
Who’s it going to?
Shiratori, will you pilot it?
M-me? But I’m a Jovian…
You’re the only other person who can do Boson Jumps besides Akito.
…Okay. I’ll use it for peace on Earth.
This is impressive. You’ve completely redesigned your mobile weapons.
Not as much as Anaheim did. I heard you have a new battleship.
You mean the Ra Cailum?
There’s also some extra armor for the ZZ.
So now the ZZ has a Full Armor pack too.
It’s not like it’s competing with the Black Sarena or anything.
And we’ve got some new Gundams too.
The Nu Gundam and Sazabi, huh?
Both of them are Newtype-only machines equipped with funnels. They won’t lose to the new Aestis.
Stop saying things that might ignite an arms race.
Captain, what’s that Nu Gundam ripoff looking thingy?
Don’t call it a ripoff. It’s a mass produced Nu Gundam.
But they’ve only made one prototype so far.
You can replace the Fin Funnels with INCOMS, so you don’t have to be a Newtype to use it.
Tch. They should have left that kind of modification to me.
(The rest of this scene is Raul only.)
(...All of these new models are from our time… They shouldn’t have been made this early… Uchuta and Keiko also survived… I knew it… Our history doesn’t mean anything anymore…)
Dammit! What should I do!?
Just follow your heart.
Banjo!?
You’re afraid of changing the past, but that’s a mistake.
W-what are you talking about?
I’m not gonna press you about it. It’s more fun not knowing what the future holds. But there’s one thing I want to tell you.
Which is?
Isn’t the present right now?
…
If you live your life to the fullest, it’s only natural that the future will change as a result. Even if it ends up in the worst possible way, it’s still better than doing nothing and waiting in silence. There’s no need to be shy. Use all your strength to rescue them.
To rescue them… What should I do…
Think about it carefully.
…Even so, the Lighting, our trump card, is in shambles…
Dang, I wanted to show Mizuho the new Aestis.
Would she really be interested in them?
It’s made from her data after all.
What data?
Her data. I proposed various ideas that were in Mizuho’s data to Nergal.
Apparently they adopted some of them.
…Wait a second… What data exactly?
Here. Look at this. It’s an idea for a new model that Mizuho came up with.
Wha--!
(This is data for the future mechs that Mizuho put into the new Frame… That’s the reason why this future technology is here…)
What’s wrong? You look pale.
Aw hell… He’s gonna be pissed…
By the way, how long do you want to hang onto that?
You mean the remains of that new Excellence Frame?
I feel sorry for Raul, but it has to be disposed of.
What a waste.
You’re not wrong, but we’re getting cramped here.
Hold it!
Raul, I know how you feel, but we don’t have enough space here just for scrap metal.
It’s not scrap!
…You can’t be saying you’re gonna fix it…
Yeah. I’ll fix it.
Are you out of your mind? It’s a bunch of scrap!
I still have Mizuho’s blueprints. I’m no novice when it comes to the Time Flow Engine, so I should be able to repair it.
You…
Well, I might not be able to do it alone. But if everyone helps me… Please, help me out!! If I complete this Lightning Frame, then I can save them from Duminas!
…Well?
We’ll still need to check on our new models.
It’s not impossible.
I’m very interested in what this new Frame can do.
Then it’s settled.
Garrison, can you fetch the Mechamarus from home?
Understood.
Thank you, everyone.
(I have no choice. History may change. Space-Time might be distorted. But to hell with it! I’ll save them with the Lightning they left behind!)
Right. Let’s do this!!
The next two scenes are Fiona only.
[Meteo, A Room]
(Nu Gundam… Black Sarena… None of these things should exist in this era… It’s completely different… Is this our fault? Raji…)
There you are.
Garrison…
I was entrusted with this from Master Raji.
This is… a recording disk…
I don’t know what’s inside, but it seems he thought something like this would happen…
Raji…
Well then, excuse me…
I wonder what’s in it… Oh! Blueprints and improvements for the Time Flow Engine! Why did he leave this for me? There’s another message… From Raji… “You can do it”... What does he mean by that? Is this a will…in case something happens to him? What the hell man!? There’s no way I can do this! I dropped out of researching that thing! I dropped out…
…
…I’ve decided…
[Meteo, Hangar]
Hey, is Fiona not here yet?
She said she was on her way.
What should we do? Shall we dispose of it ourselves?
You mean the remains of the new Excellence Frame?
But we need her to look at them. There might be important parts left.
That’s right. We need to keep all usable parts.
So the rest will be thrown out back?
What a waste.
You’re not wrong, but we’re getting cramped here.
There she is.
You’re late. Let’s start sorting already.
Wait a minute!
Fiona…?
Don’t throw away that Frame. I’m going to use it.
In this state?
You’re not going out there in scrap!
I’ll fix it!
Are you out of your mind? It’s a bunch of scrap!
It’s fine. The Eternal Frame is already 80% complete. I also have Mizuho’s blueprints.
You…
Well, I probably can’t do it myself. But if everyone helps me…
You’re asking for our help?
I want to complete the Eternal and save them from Duminas!
…Well?
We’ll still need to check on our new models.
It’s not impossible.
I’m very interested in what this new Frame can do.
Then it’s settled.
Garrison, can you fetch the Mechamarus from home?
Understood.
Thank you, everyone.
Don’t sweat it.
(Raji… Wait for me…)
This scene is Raul only.
[???, ???]
Where am I…
You’re finally awake.
W-who’s there? Where am I?
You may ask one question at a time.
…Who are you?
I am Duminas…
Duminas… What do you want with me?
If you do what I want, I guarantee your life.
And what is that?
I want an Excellence Frame. I want to know the flow system of the Time Flow Engine.
Why?
To obtain the power of that engine…
For what purpose?
…To transcend time…
There’s no way I can do that!
…You have already transcended time… You will share that power with me.
I refuse! If I do that, who knows what you’ll do to the Earth Sphere!
Then let’s make a deal… If you cooperate with me, I will disappear from the Earth Sphere.
Really?
My wish is not in the Earth Sphere.
But…
Raji has already promised his cooperation and is working on perfecting the Time Flow Engine.
Raji is?
My wish can be granted by that Engine. I want the Frame data to ensure its perfection. However…
You’re not going to get it through force.
You’re right… There’s no need to resort to force to keep you alive… Now, decide…
…
This scene is Fiona only.
[???, ???]
…Where am I…
You’re finally awake.
…Who’re you?
My name is Duminas… Raji Montoya.
Where am I? What do you want with us?
I’ll answer your questions one at a time.
…Where are we?
I can’t answer that. Do you have any more questions?
Fine then… Where’s Mizuho?
She’s in another room.
What do you want with us?
To complete your research. Your research into time travel…
So that’s why you took the Time Flow Engine?
Yes.
What if I refused?
Mizuho Saiki’s life would end.
…She’s just a hostage…
You cannot refuse. You created the Time Flow Engine to put an end to war caused by energy conflicts… So that many people can live in peace… You cannot take a human life…
…You want me to make a choice that could potentially kill tens of thousands of lives in order to save one?
The life of one friend is worth far more than tens of thousands of nameless people… Am I wrong?
…You’re not wrong… It’s not uncommon for someone who can easily press a button to kill tens of thousands of strangers to shed a tear over a single family member.
Would you rather protect the life of one close friend, or the lives of all those strangers? The deaths of those strangers is merely an assumption, but I expect you to consider the certainty of your friend’s death. Decide.
…I understand. While I continue the research, let’s also think of a way to save all those potential lives.
Your choice isn’t a mistake.

Brother… Is this the end of us?
No. The climax has yet to come.
So what now?
The microwave transmission facility is still intact… THE BOYS have made a big mistake.
They were so close to losing the DX and GX’s Satellite Systems.
Let’s go, Olba. Despinis and Duminas should be making their move.
Where’s our next stage, brother?
…The Jovian Federation…
[Meteo, Command Room]
We just got a call from the government. They’re agreeing to peace talks with the Jovian Federation.
Really? Thank goodness!
Sorry it took so long.
No, I understand their dilemma.
I’m sure D.O.M.E. will feel a little more at ease with this.
I guess humans aren’t that dumb after all.
What a relief. I’m glad…
