No. 306 Planet RS13-Alpha RS13アルファ惑星
Iori Fuyusaka: What happened…?
I don’t see anything…
Where is everyone?
Shu Amiguchi: Right here.
Natsuno Minami: I can't tell what’s going on outside.
How about you?
Shu Amiguchi: Same here.
My Sentinel’s not resonding…
Yuki Takamiya: I can't ecen get outta mine.
Still stuck in this damn cockpit.
沖野司:
Tsukasa Okino: Relax, everyone…
Shu Amiguchi: Tsukasa Okino!?
沖野司:
Tsukasa Okino: And not just me.
Tamao-san’s safe too, even if she's still out cold.
Keitaro Miura: Tamao-san’s all right? Really?
沖野司:
Tsukasa Okino: I know you've all been assuming these are the Sentinel cockpits.
But they're not. They’ve always been something else entirely.
Keitaro Miura: Then… where are we…?
沖野司:
Tsukasa Okino: If my communications are reaching you…
That means you're now outside Universal Control.
Ei Sekigahara: …You're saying we’re out of that virtual cityspace?
Does that mean… this is the real world?
Keitaro Miura: “Real world”? What are you talking about?
Ei Sekigahara: The five sectors you know? They're artificial worlds.
We’ve been living in a virtual reality.
Keitaro Miura: …That wasn’t real…?
鞍部十郎:
Juro Kurabe: We were born within the simulation.
We spent out whole lives in a waking dream.
And now we’re finally awake. We’re back in reality…
Natsuno Minami: Wait, Juro-kun.
Aren't we supposed to be on a different planet now?
That was like, the whole point of interstellar development, wasn’t it?
Shu Amiguchi: Minami’s right. This is a whole different planet.
And I think we’re in one of the five sectors…
鞍部十郎:
Juro Kurabe: Almost, Amiguchi-kun.
This isn't Earth.
But I don’t think it’s a residential district at ground-level.
I think it’s a pod facility. Where we’ve all been sleeping.
Shu Amiguchi: So… does that mean…
Everything up until now was just… one big Illusion?
薬師寺恵:
Megumi Yakushiji: Even if that’s true, what we lived was real. What we felt was real.
This was Fluffy’s plan all along… Or, well…
Juro Izumi’s plan. The one he brought from the ruined world.
Miyuki Inaba: It was your only chance.
No other escape plan had any possibility of survival.
By reconnecting the terminal link…
The mainframe detects abnormal conditions.
If then initiates the emergency escape procedure.
…That’s what he found out.
Ei Sekigahara: So that’s was 426’s plan…
Miyuki Inaba: But there was one more issue that prevented escape.
Namely, your bodies.
You weren’t ready to live outside of the pods…
Shu Amiguchi: What…?
Is that what this cockpit was for…?
Miyuki Inaba: You couldn’t survive outside that environment.
Your bodies needed conditioning to sustain your lives unaided.
It was a very long process…
We had to give you all the preparation time you needed.
Nenji Ogata: So… are we done cookin’ in here? Can we get out yet?
Miyuki Inaba: Yes. The growth process has finally come to an end.
Iori Fuyusaka: So what happens to everyone else back in the city?
Miyuki Inaba: I knew you would ask me about that.
It’s part of why I didn’t explain the details sooner, but…
They are not human. They only exist within the simulation.
All 1.2 million people, everyone who lived in those sectors…
They were all AI, created and managed by Universal Control.
Iori Fuyusaka: That’s… not going to be easy to accept…
Miyuki Inaba: If it’s any comfort to you…
The professor saved all their data.
They haven't been erased. They all still exist.
Iori Fuyusaka: …
Tomi Kisaragi: Please… No more secrets.
What was this whole interstellar development project for?
Was all this stuff with the kaiju part of the plan? Testing us?
Ryoko Shinonome: Actually…
It might have been because of the old me.
The Ryoko Shinonome of 2188 tried to sabotage the plan.
Maybe that’s why the Deimos appeared…
Nenji Ogata: She wanted to stop it?
Ryoko Shinonome: I… She was… sick of humanity. Sick of the despair.
比治山隆俊:
Takatoshi Hijiyama: I saw the logs from those who were there in the final days.
And the end was… truly horrific…
Nenji Ogata: …
Renya Gouto: So what can we expect from this new planet?
I think we’re due some basic information if we’re going to live here.
Miyuki Inaba: It is approximately 1,200 light years from Earth, in the direction of the Virgo constellation…
The planet is RS13-Alpha. It has two moons.
The time plapsed since departing the solar system is…
Nenji Ogata: Okay, okay, that’s good for now…
Any more of this crap and my head’s gonna explode…
Miyuki Inaba: If you say so. In any case, this will be your new Earth…
The satellite’s about to enter the atmosphere.
In a couple moments, you'll lose your connection to the command ship.
…But before that, please allow me to offer a word of apology.
I believed this plan would be impossible.
After all, some of you had never even piloted a Sentinel before.
I thought I would just throw everything into the plan.
That way, I could at least end this with no regrets.
But… against all odds… you pulled it off.
No matter how far technology may come…
It’s humanity who always seems to make miracles come true.
You've done well, children of mankind…
Once you're out of your pods, I can't talk to you anymore.
But I’ll always be watching over you from my place in the sky.
Don’t ever forget that…
