Natsuno Minami:

Are they here? Not yet, right…?

Keitaro Miura:

Don’t push yourself so hard… I can hold the line here, Natsuno-san. Please, fall back if you need to.

Natsuno Minami:

…

Keitaro Miura:

Natsuno-san?

Natsuno Minami:

Y’know, Miura-kun… you kinda remind me of BJ.

Keitaro Miura:

Uh… I do?

Natsuno Minami:

Weird, right? It’s not like the two of you are that similar, even.

Keitaro Miura:

If I had to guess… it’s because he felt the same way.

You can withdraw, Natsuno-san… I’ll stay here, as a shield.

Natsuno Minami:

I'm not going anywhere. No. 17’s gonna win this for us. It’s BJ’s own Sentinel, after all.

Keitaro Miura:

…

You're right… He and that Sentinel are one and the same. And I know I can count on him to protect you.

Ryoko Shinonome:

Deimos signatures approaching… They're coming.

Keitaro Miura:

Well, nothing else for it… Please, cover me.

Nenji Ogata:

Now we just gotta slam the Aegis down on the others, right?

Ei Sekigahara:

Unfortunately, it’s not so simple.

If we activate Aegis on all the terminals, time as we know it will stop in this world.

Nenji Ogata:

We’ll stop time!? You gotta be shittin’ me…

Juro Kurabe:

Our link to Universal Control would be completely cut off.

Everyone but us will disappear. They’ll never come back.

Ei Sekigahara:

And that’s not all. We’d be completely isolated.

Trapped in a dead world. Just us and the ruined city until the day we die.

Nenji Ogata:

…So this Aegis isn't gonna save our asses after all.

Ryoko Shinonome:

So that’s Operation Aegis… Even then, I guess she thought it’d be better than being annihilated.

Ei Sekigahara:

If Morimura believed the Sentinel Project was a lost cause, this must have seemed like her only option.
