Video of this chapter
Last time the secrets of D.O.M.E were unveiled and both Neo Zeon and Gaizok were defeated for good. We’re in the home stretch now.
I’ll note now that there are loads of new units for UC pilots that you’ll have to reassign. All the Nadesico pilots also got new units. Subaru is also a new pilot for the Dendoh Battery delivery planes. I’ll cover the new units when we get to the gameplay portion.
[Presidential Palace, A Room]
So you’re Major Tsukumo Shiratori, the Jovian Federation’s representative?
I am. I’m grateful for this invitation, Mr. President.
I think you’ve already heard the news, but the other day the UESN decided to entertain a ceasefire agreement with the Jovian Federation.
Not a peace treaty?
Well this whole war started due to an incident over 100 years ago. All the parties involved are dead and there’s no records about the ordeal.
We should still have records from that time.
But since it’ll be the Jovians providing the information, many people are questioning its validity. For that reason, we’ve decided to call this a truce instead of proper peace. We’ll call for representatives from both sides to investigate.
I’m sure the Jovians won’t be happy with this.
No, the most important thing is that we stop pointing our guns at each other first.
I appreciate your understanding. Now, regarding the ceasefire agreement, I’m concerned that we haven’t heard anything from your superiors.
I must apologize for that. Even among us Jovians, there are still those who reject the notion of peace.
So you’re not all united in this?
Correct.
Depending on what they say, we may only be able to confirm each other’s intentions and not end up signing anything.
I don’t believe it’ll come to that.
I’m going to have Vice Minister Relena Darlian lead the negotiations on this.
[Meteo, Command Room]
So THE BOYS are tasked to escort Vice Minister Relena and Major Shiratori to the ceasefire conference between Earth and Jupiter.
Of course, we’ll also be tasked with providing security for our side.
Wouldn’t it be better if either the Nadesico or Ra Cailum stayed behind?
I agree… This seems a bit excessive.
This shows how important this conference is to the government.
…I can’t help but have a bad feeling about this.
Is it really okay to make peace like this?
What do you mean?
You want to stop the war, right?
Yes. As long as we both wish to stop fighting… It should be fine.
That’s true, but when it comes down to it, I start thinking about all the people killed by the Jovian Lizards. I lose the confidence to say with pride that this is the right thing to do…
…Don’t worry about me.
Akito…
It’s true, I hated them at first. I wanted to kill all of them for attacking that Martian city and killing everyone there.
…That’s a natural human response.
But that won’t solve anything. That’s just more justification to keep hating and killing each other.
Hatred only brings hatred, right?
We promised D.O.M.E. that we would build the future with our own hands. We can’t miss an opportunity to stop the war.
quote:
This is what Gaizok was talking about. Have confidence, you’re doing the right thing.
Yurika, you should go in with your head held high.
Thank you, Akito!
Whoa, there’s a time and a place for hugging!
Man, go flirt somewhere else.
…Back on track, it’s true that they spoke of wanting peace and even sent us an envoy. But we don’t know their demands.
I’m having some doubts… What do you think, Captain?
I can think of two outcomes. One is that this peace conference is just the Jovians buying time.
And the other?
Just as Major Shiratori said, there’s no consensus within the Federation. His dispatch to us may have been premature.
So you’re saying the Jovians might not want peace?
Hatred towards Earthlings has been building up for over a century.
Even if some of them want peace, there will be others who don’t.
Major Shiratori believes in peace from the bottom of his heart, but…
No, I believe in the Jovians. Peace cannot succeed if we’re all suspicious of each other.
That’s right. Let’s try believing in them.
I can’t be that optimistic…
No matter what everyone thinks, I believe in myself… I believe in myself and him.
All we can do now is to trust the Jovian Federation.
There’s also Ikuta as an example. If you go there lured in by the bait of peace, you might get betrayed.
To prevent that from happening, we’ll be there as bodyguards.
The next two scenes are Raul only.
[Meteo, Hangar]
Um… So it goes like this…
Ah, no no. Not like that.
Leave the Frame to us. You just worry about the engine.
I can help here too.
We want you to worry about the engine since you’re the only one who knows anything about it.
…Fine.
[Meteo, A Room]
I can do simple maintenance, but when it comes to making serious adjustments with the Frame, I guess it’s not in my wheelhouse… Even so, she left behind a lot of blueprints… Oh these are… “A Heat-Resistant Frame”, “A Cold-Resistant Frame”, “A Pressure-Resistant Frame”, “High Speed Transport Frame”... Are these blueprints for the rescue machine that eventually became the Excellence?... This looks just like the Lightning Frame… “The Almighty Frame”... Basic yet versatile. I see… The Lightning is based on the Frame she designed for all-purpose rescue… From rescue to combat…
…
Oh, you were here? Everyone’s waiting in the hangar.
I’ll be right there… I have to save them… I can’t let this combat Frame be our final work…
Did you say something?
No. It’s nothing…
The next two scenes are Fiona only.
[Meteo, Hangar]
Phew…
Why don’t you take a break. You look exhausted.
Thank you… I’ll rest a bit after I finish this part.
How’s the Frame repair going?
It’s going better than expected. At this rate, it’ll be finished before the Jovian negotiations begin.
I left the busywork to the Mechamarus, so it should be going smoothly.
But this is the first time I’ve worked on one of your Frames. I’m amazed by how good Mizuho’s designs are.
Yeah. There’s nothing particularly outstanding about it apart from the Time Flow Engine, but it’s extremely well made.
It’s just as good as the new Aestis. She’s been at this for quite some time.
(...I mean she is an engineer from the future after all…)
…!
Ah, watch out!
[Impact noises]
You fell!
Hey, are you alright?
Sorry, I’m fine. Just tripped.
You’ve been working on this all night. I think it’s time for a break.
But I still need to work on the parts around the Engine…
[Meteo, Infirmary]
I’ve given you an IV, but don’t push yourself too hard. If you collapse, who’s gonna save them?
I’m fine. Compared to the Frames I’ve worked on until now… I really need to complete the Eternal quickly. Ow!
No. Stop working and rest. Doctor’s orders!
…
[Y-Nadesico, Cafetaria]
Well then, I’d like to begin the pre-celebration party for the Jupiter-Earth peace agreement.
Let’s start by having Mr. Tsukumo Shiratori give us a speech on behalf of the group.
Thank you very much for providing us with this chance. We’ve faced many difficulties, but we’ll never lose. That’s because love, courage, and passion are what will bring true peace to this world! Cheers!
…If only it was that easy.
In an hour in the next room, we’ll be holding a special “Every Single Episode of Gekiganger 3 Marathon” event!
UWAAAAA! Everyone, please watch and learn how hot blooded men live!
Gekiganger is a god-tier anime that teaches us the greatness of humanity.
What’s Gekiganger?
I’ve explained it before, but it’s a mecha anime that the Jovians are obsessed with.
It’s like their holy scripture.
…I guess I should watch it too.
A bunch of adults are gathering to watch an old mecha anime?
…Everyone.
…Are idiots. Right?
…
All the adults who watch that anime happily act the same way. It’s so weird. …What’s up with you?
Nothing really…
I’ll pass. Hokuto, you wanna have our rematch?
You mean billiards? Sure, I’m down. Subaru, do you want to join us?
I don’t know the rules though…
Don’t worry. I’ll teach you as we play.
[Jovian Battleship Kagurazuki, A Room]
You summoned me?
Yes. Rejoice, for we’ve obtained our goal.
You mean the Martian Ruins?
Not only will this revive the ancient Solar System civilization’s culture, but it will also change the very meaning of the war against Earth.
Those evil Earthlings won’t know what hits them.
There’s no need for peace.
The Jovian Federation Supreme War Council is in session as we speak. They’ll likely use this to suppress those who support the peace talks.
I see. This will save the Federation.
I’m sure the Earthlings will have their complaints. To hold them off, I will attend the peace talks.
To that end, I’m giving you a secret mission.
A secret mission?
What’s the matter, Major Tsukiomi? You don’t look well.
It’s nothing… More importantly, what’s your take on this peace treaty with Earth?
You’ve got to be kidding me. Peace with Earth? Just what are they thinking?
…I think it’s fine.
Why?
It’s true that it’s hard to forgive them. But what will be left if we continue fighting like this? Our victory shouldn’t be over a mountain of corpses.
You underestimate the Earthlings. If we let our guard down, there’s no telling what tactics they might use!
Earthlings did create Gekikganger… I can’t believe that all of them are bad people.
How many of them know about it these days? Most of them have forgotten about it. They’ve abandoned it!
That’s right. They deny what’s important to you.
They’re unforgivable.
Who are you?
They’re the Frost Brothers, here at Vice Admiral Kusakabe’s invitation.
They’re Earthlings!?
There are eccentrics among Earthlings like us.
More importantly, are you really going to accept peace with those who deny what you hold dear?
(...Tsukumo was seduced by the women and children of Earth and abandoned Nanako… He abandoned Gekiganger!)
[Meteo, Hangar]
Master Raul, didn’t Master Rain tell you to take a break?
In a minute. I’ll be done soon.
Is that so… I’ve brought you a simple meal. Please take the time to eat it.
Okay.
…
(Raji made the Time Flow Engine and Mizuho made the Frame… I had no part in either of that… I’m not nearly as skilled or smart as them, but I still have to finish this. It took Muzuho a long time to make this. Makes sense since it’s the strongest Frame. There must have been a lot of technical ingenuity put into it. I knew you didn’t like that this Frame was made for combat… Mizuho… I’m making this to rescue you. This is your Rescue Frame. After that, let’s go home… To our own time.)
quote:
I’m almost finished. So please…
Very well. I’ll try to fool Master Rain somehow. But don’t push yourself too hard.
…I know…
…
(I know I’m not as smart as Raji or dexterous as Mizuho… Raji, when our dads died, you took over as main researcher for the Time Flow Engine. But I became a pilot since I knew I couldn’t outdo you. I thought I’d never be better than you if I kept researching, so…I ran away… I didn’t want to stay in your shadow, so I ran. But I can’t run away any more. I just can’t. I will complete the Frame you and Mizuho left behind. I will save you both. And then…we’ll be together again…)
[Meteo, A Room]
We’re finally alone!
Ah! Um… could you please give me some space?
Fat. Chance.
I’m…well…I’m not used to situations like this.
How cute!
Over by Jupiter, we hardly ever have the chance to interact with women.
So you’ve never kissed before?
C-correct…
Shall I teach you?
N-No… No…
You don’t want to?
No… That’s not what I meant…
Make it clear!
…I don’t not want to.
Then I’ll take the lead… Close your eyes… Tilt your head like this…
…Like this…
Okay… My arms are here and here… Hey, don’t open your eyes.
Sorry.
You’re not moving… Are you excited?
Yes…
…Me too…
This next scene is Raul only.
[Meteo, Hangar]
…It’s done…
Yea, it’s finally done.
It’s been a while since I had to work this hard.
I’m a bit disappointed you didn’t let me modify it.
Then it wouldn’t be theirs.
Is it finished?
Yes. Behold.
The strongest Excellence Frame… The Lightning Frame!
This scene is Fiona only.
[Meteo, Hangar]
…
You pushed yourself too hard.
I know she wanted to finish it quickly, but to work to the point of collapse…
But she looks happy.
Yeah. That’s the face I make when I write the perfect thesis.
I’ll take her to the infirmary.
Yes, please. Can you guys help her?
Sure.
Leave it to me.
Let’s go.
But it’s completed.
Yes, we’re finally done.
So this is the strongest Excellence Frame… The Eternal Frame…
[Y-Nadesico, A Room]
Relena, there’s two hours left until the summit. Are you ready?
Yes. Thank you for accompanying me.
It’s finally time. I’m feeling anxious.
It’s okay, we all share the same love for peace. …Hey Akito.
Hmm?
When this peace is realized, I intend to propose to a certain someone.
Propose?
If someone you truly love appears, no matter how difficult a decision you’re forced to make, you should give a definitive answer.
Is that right?
WAAAAAAH! Minato!
It’s alright. You haven’t asked me properly yet.
I-is that so?
That’s how it is.
Oh?
[Ra Cailum, Bridge]
That is our meeting place, the Jovian Federation battleship Kagurazuki.
…
What’s wrong?
This is…
So you all feel the same way.
Yeah. This is supposed to be a place to negotiate peace, so why does it feel so ominous?
…There are those who keep wishing for war among them…
Please don’t insult them.
But I certainly sense their malice… Just as hateful as Haman… No, even more so.
Shiratori, you know there are those on Earth and Jupiter who are opposed to peace, right?
It’s unfortunate, but…
They probably feel that way.
So the person in charge of negotiations will be Vice Minister Relena.
I’ll go too.
Me too.
I’ll be there too… It would be a problem if things got too emotional.
I’ll represent the Preventers.
It would be better if we had some proper bodyguards.
In that case, I’ll go.
Count me in too.
I’d feel safe surrounded by the Shuffle Alliance.
You got that right.
I’ll go with you, Domon.
Sounds like a party. I want in.
Then we’ll use Daitarn to go there. It’s big, so more than ten people can ride in it comfortably.
Plus it’ll help if fighting does break out.
Then let’s go. It’s rude to keep them waiting.
[Jovian Battleship Kagurazuki, A Room]
I’m Vice Admiral Kusakabe, representative of the Jovian Federation.
I’m Relena Darlian, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs for the UESN.
Vice Admiral Kusakabe… You’re here?
I’ve also awakened to the prospect of peace, Major Shiratori.
…You’re all soldiers.
The Jovian Federation is a very militant nation. It’s unavoidable if we are to survive. Well then, let’s start by presenting our proposal.
(...Be careful)
(They’re like this now of all times?)
(Even though they talk about peace, I only sense murderous intent everywhere.)
(...I might be a Newtype after all…)
What is this proposal!?
What does it say?
The abandonment of the Earth Sphere, dissolution of the government, a change of political ideology…
Accepting this is the same as an unconditional surrender.
There’s no way we can accept this.
Vice Admiral Kusakabe, please retract this document!
Why should we, Major Shiratori?
It’s because they love Gekiganger! That’s why!
Shiratori…
Gekiganger is a god-tier anime. Effort, victory, friendship, love. All the things important to us as people are contained in that work.
That’s right!
They realized that, which is why they agreed to peace. There should only be one justice!
That’s right. As you say, there is only one justice!
[Gunshot]
T-that’s…
Assassinating someone under the guise of peace… Is that your idea of justice? Huh!?
I-impossible… You stopped a bullet with your bare hands…
I’ll give it back to you now!
Ugh!
What are you planning!?
The evil empire will be destroyed by justice. Evil empires deserved to be destroyed! Earth, which oppressed us and drove us to Jupiter, deserves to be destroyed!
No way.
You’re saying we’re evil!?
That’s right. There is always only one justice, and it will always be with us!
Destroy the evil Earthlings!!
I won’t let you!
Looks like they failed to kill them, brother.
Good grief. Looks like we’re up again.
…We’ll get ready too.
[Jovian Battleship Kagurazuki, Hallway]
What have you done!?
Don’t think about it until we’re long gone.
I’ll cover you. Everyone, hurry to Daitarn.
Tsukumo!
Genichiro… Not you too…
You’re the one at fault! You insulted Nanako!
Stop it, Genichiro!
Ha!
[Stabbing sounds]
Guh… A rose on my arm… A throwing knife!?
Recognize your own ugliness in front of the beauty of a rose.
This way!
What’ll happen to you?
I’m responsible for putting you all through this without knowing anything. I’ve got you covered!
In that case, you should live. If nothing else but as a witness for the Jovians.
That’s right. Leave it to us to find a way out.
Don’t let them get away!
Attention everyone, this is an announcement. The Earthlings have attempted to assassinate us under the pretense of negotiations.
(He’s on the monitors)
What a bold-faced lie.
They are evil beings who exploit peace. We must not let them escape no matter what!
We must free the evil from the Earthlings through death.
You’re just being selfish. Domon, let’s use that!
Yes, Master!
CHOUKYUU!
HAOU!!
DEN’EIDAN!!!
UWAAAAAAA!
W-what’s that!?
Launch me, Domon!!
HA!!
UYRAAAAAAAAA!
Uwaaaaaaa!
Explode!
quote:
Good luck with that. Everyone step back. I’ll open up a path!!
What are you scheming?
Haaaaaaaaaahhhh. School of the Undefeated of the East Ultimate Technique!!
T-this is…
SEKIHA! TENKYOKEEEEEEEEEN!!
[Explosions]
Chapter 32: The War We Asked For
Something’s wrong.
What’s going on?
Banjo, what happened?
Negotiations have broken down. Actually, they never intended to negotiate in the first place.
So it was a trap.
Where’s the Captain!? Is everyone alright?
What about Shiratori? Is he safe?
It’s fine. We’re all here.
…
Don’t let them get away! Defeat the evil Earthlings! Justice is on our side!
How dare you Earthlings plot such an evil scheme.
I was wrong to even consider the notion that you desired peace!
Hehehe…
Look who’s still alive!
Did you really think we’d die from something like that?
Was it your fault that all that happened!?
Not this time. This is what the Jovians wanted.
But we also want war.
This is the war we asked for!
Those jerks!
Alright, we’re here. Get the Vice Minister to safety!
Tch. Let’s settle this!
Select 13 units to deploy. Banjo is a forced deploy since he’s already out there. You cannot deploy Raul or Fiona since they’re preoccupied.
Before I get started, let me show off all the fun toys we have.
I’ve already covered the Nu Gundam, Mass Produced Nu Gundam (only if you got the secret pre-time skip), Ra Cailum, Black Sarena, Super Aestivalis, and Aestivalis Customs from before the time travel. Go back to those chapters if you want to read about them. Gai got the Super Aesti while Ryoko and friends got the Aesti Customs. It’s worth noting that you can finally equip the Fin Funnels on the MP Nu now. If you choose the Nadesico B route at the start of the game, the Black Sarena will also come with its High Mobility Frame. Despite what Inez said earlier, the Black Sarena can Boson Jump to avoid attacks at high wills.
You get the Alstroemeria for Tsukumo if you get him 10 kills before the end of the previous stage. Since he’s only available for one stage if you went the Space route, you had to get all 10 kills in one chapter. You can move him between this unit and his Tetsujin.
[MSN-04 Sazabi]
It’s a very good Newtype mobile suit. Just watch out it doesn’t drain its EN instantly with all the funnel usage.
[FA-010S Full Armor ZZ Gundam]
An extra frame for the ZZ Gundam. It gives it a new massive beam cannon attack and increased survivability and the cost of slightly lower mobility and a lack of transformation. You can also purge the armor either manually or when it hits 0 HP for a full HP, EN, and ammo refresh.
If you went on the Space route during the last split, Garrod also permanently gains Tiffa as a subpilot. Not only does this make the DX amazing with a second support-based spirit pool (three pilots if you include the G-Falcon), but Garrod, whether intended to or not, gains Tiffa’s Newtype skill. This increases his already amazing evasion and accuracy even further beyond. Plus it lowers the cooldown timer on the Double Satellite Cannon by another turn. It’s not hard to argue that with Tiffa, the DX + G-Falcon is one of the best units in the game. Also the DX and GX both gain the G-Bits attack and a G-Bits boosted Satellite Cannon attack. It’s only functional for the GX if Jamil, Carris, or Lancerow are piloting it though.
Now onto the map. Defeat the Jovians and Frost Brothers. They’ll eventually move to you, so you can wait for them or meet them part-way. Watch out for the named Jovians and their higher stats. They and the Frost Brothers can be quite difficult to hit at times.
The Frost Brothers have done something smart for once. They’ve both equipped themselves with three Propellent Tanks, letting them max out their EN three times each. This all but gets rid of their main weakness of their Satellite Launcher’s massive EN cost. Try to take them out before they can use these tanks.
Amuro Ray! If you hadn’t achieved so much during the One Year War, Newtypes wouldn’t be so highly sought after!
You should be the first to die!
They’re just a bundle of hatred!
(Which line is said depends on which brother he fights first)
Is this the war you wanted?
War is the best way to change the world. We failed using powers inside the Earth Sphere, but this time we’ll succeed.
Are you trying to use the Jovians to start another war?
They’ve wanted war with the Earth the whole time!
Once war breaks out again, it’ll be our victory!
What’s so fun about starting wars!?
This is for your atonement. Now repent for not valuing us!
Genichiro, please listen to me! This was a trap. It was all planned by Kusakabe!!
That has nothing to do with this. Tsukumo, this is your fault for betraying Nanako!
You didn’t know about Kusakabe’s plan…?
Major Akiyama, calm down and listen to me. This was all Kusakabe’s plot. The Earthlings want peace!
I’m not going to listen to your excuses now!
It seems the rumors that you were seduced by an Earth woman to betray us were true.
No! Mintao is not that kind of person!
Thankfully, none of them retreat at low HP. But only the Frost Brothers have death quotes.
What a shame… I lost again!
Why!? Why do I always lose!?
The plot continues when all enemies have been defeated.
Good. The first wave has been taken care of.
What a travesty. The Frost Brothers and Tsukiomi are useless!
It’ll be fine. Just leave it to us!
We have to kill THE BOYS here.
…I thought we didn’t have to do anything… But now I guess we gotta kill them…
It’s them!
I knew they were involved!
We should have noticed since the Frost Brothers were here.
Despinis, Lalia, let’s go! We’ll sink the Nadesico with a simultaneous attack!
WAIT!
(TL Note: Rom Stoll!?!?!)
…Who’s there?
You’ve finally shown yourself. There’s something I need to ask you guys!
quote:
I’ve been waiting for this. It was worth holding back until you guys showed up…
That voice…
Aren’t they just their plus one?
Time Flow Engine, start… Energy conversion efficiency rising from 50 to 70… No abnormalities in the Frame’s drive systems. Time Flow Energy output rising from 60% to 70%... Time Flow Energy flow level A… No abnormalities in all systems…
W-what’s that?
The Ra Cailum… No, there’s a massive energy reaction from the Excellence inside the Ra Cailum…
This power… It’s different from what the Excellence was like before!
O flow of time! Become the Excellence’s power!
Excellence Lightning, standby OK! Excellence Lightning, GOOOO!!
quote:
Excellence Eternal, standby OK! Excellence Eternal, GOOOO!!
Super Robot Wars OGs - Over the Time Flow (Raul’s Theme)
Super Robot Wars OGs - Over the World Wall (Fiona’s Theme)
What’s that!?
I thought we destroyed it…
No way…
A single moment in the flow of time… Time itself is but an infinite series of moments… Now all of those moments become one! This is Mizuho’s masterpiece, the Excellence Lightning!
The Excellence…
…Lightning…
Answer me! Where are they!?
quote:
I will transform the infinite flow of time into power… This is the endless power that Raji entrusted to me, the Excellence Eternal!
The Excellence…
…Eternal…
Answer me! Where did you take them!?
T-that’s…
Can’t answer that. If you really want to know, try defeating me first! If you do, I’ll spill the beans.
Tis, you can’t!
What can a new Frame even do?
[Tis is left at 10 HP]
Tis!
Impossible… Y-you beat me with just one hit!?
A promise is a promise. Where are they?
No way… I… Dammit… DAMMIT!!
Lalia, Despinis, what are you doing? Let go!
We can’t win like this…
We need to run.
Let go of me! I hate you!
I don’t care if you hate me… As long as you’re still alive…
Despinis…
…As promised. Raji and Mizuho are…
…On the Galfa homeworld.
On the Galfa homeworld!?
Yes, on the Galfa homeworld. Right at home with Lord Duminas and Emperor Galfa… Is that good enough for you!?
Yeah…
But remember this. I’ll pay you back in full! Got it!?
What’s wrong with those brats? They’re no good for anything!
Leave this to us. Luckily, we just completed a new model.
Okay. They’re all yours.
What’re those!?
The Jovians got new models?
They finished it already!?
I see… It’s not like we’re the only side with some future technology.
quote:
…I see. There’s a technology leak somewhere.
Disasters destroy everything… Destroy them!!
Finally, after all the buildup...
[Excellence Lightning Frame]
Raul exclusive. There’s little reason to use any other Frame at this point except maybe the Gunner if you really like that long range cannon. The Lightning sports really good stats, great movement, powerful attacks at close and long range, a bunshin, A ranks in all terrains, and innate EN regen.
[Excellence Eternal Frame]
Fiona exclusive. It’s literally the same as the Lightning Frame except it has 200 less HP and lacks the Sword Cut defensive option (the HP difference here is due to different upgrades). Otherwise it has the same attack ranges and powers.
Now comes Hokushin and his Hokushin Six! Remember them from before the time leap? They’re all tough to hit without offensive spirits and can even Boson Jump when they reach over 120 will. Try to finish at least Hokushin off before that happens. What’s funny is that Hokushin doesn’t spawn on Kagurazuki’s good terrain, so he lacks the defensive bonuses and the HP regen that comes with it.
Tsukumo Shiratori, perish for the future of the Jovian Federation!
Hokushin, the Jovian Federation’s dirty little secret.
Since Hokushin only had 9000 HP, I tried to one shot him. It was easier than I expected.
It’s hard to handle an unfamiliar mech…
The map ends when all enemies are defeated.
The enemy’s attacks have stopped. We need to retreat now!
Is it okay to leave them like this?
Not really, but we have no choice!
The thing they fear most is our survival!
Understood. Retreat at full speed!!
[Y-Nadesico, Deck]
You sure showed them.
That Excellence Lightning thing is pretty snazzy.
Yeah. It’s all thanks to everyone. Thank you.
quote:
Up close, the Excellence Eternal is really cool.
I’ve caused you all a lot of trouble until now.
Don’t worry about it. We’re all in the same boat.
Even so, I can’t believe they were kidnapped to the Galfa homeworld.
You know where that planet is, right Altair?
Yes, but it’s too far for the Nadesico or Ra Cailum.
Both ships were designed to be only used within the Solar System.
But if we use Meteo…
That’s right. Meteo can get us there easy.
It is possible with Meteo, yes.
But Meteo can’t move yet, right?
We’re working on it. It should be ready soon.
Alright. Let’s storm the Galfa homeworld!
But what about the Jovian Federation?
Right. Now that negotiations have broken down, war could flare up at any time.
Right now, we’re the only ones who can defend the Earth Sphere. We can’t just abandon them to go to Galfa.
They’re not foes we can beat by splitting our forces either…
At least we know where they’re hiding.
[Y-Nadesico, Bridge]
Vice Minister Relena, I have to offer my deepest apologies.
Apologizing won’t solve anything.
I can see that you’re also a victim here.
That’s right, Shiratori. Please, stop worrying.
Even if you say so, it’s impossible for him not to.
But were they planning to kill us all from the beginning?
No, that’s not true. I know before I was sent as an envoy, the Jovians were debating on the pros and cons of peace, but there were no movements to do something like that.
So it happened after you were sent to us.
Maybe they had their own coup and wiped out the peace faction?
That can’t be. If they did that, they would be in a civil war right now. They don’t have the time for that.
So maybe the war faction got the upper hand somehow?
Right, it has to be Duminas. They cooperated with Duminas and got too strong!
I see. That makes sense.
I guess that’s that… I feel like I’m forgetting something though…
OH YEAH!!
What’s with the sudden yelling?
That new model… I’m sure it’s that.
It’s what?
Go to Mars with the Ra Cailum right away!
To Mars?
They must have gotten their hands on the Martian Ruins!
[???, ???]
Ugh… Dammit… Dammit…
Tis… Please stop crying.
I’ve never been this frustrated at someone before…
I know the feeling.
No, not like that. Not like this. I lost so easily…
Lalia… Despinis… Tis…
Lord Duminas…
…Go to Mars… Deliver it to me…
