Waching daily Nov 30 2018

We repeat this special announcement:

Rita, we're leaving! Come back! At 7:20 Greenwich Mean Time today,

- Don't act up! - Out of the way! Side 3, now calling itself the Principality of Zeon,

- Don't act up! - Out of the way! declared war on the Earth Federation Government.

declared war on the Earth Federation Government.

H-Hey! Reports say that it is currently trading fire with the EFSF in Earth orbit,

Rita! Come back! Not you, too! Reports say that it is currently trading fire with the EFSF in Earth orbit,

but details remain scarce due to-- Don't! Come back this instant!

Jona! Michele!

Rita!

What's the matter? Why'd you run off all of a sudden?

Let's hurry back, the teacher is gonna be--

What?

What was that just now?

Jona! You saw it too, didn't you, Jona?

You did that? Right, Rita?

Is that gonna happen?

It can't be stopped?

Scary things are about to happen.

Sad things, too.

Hey, do you think there's really such a place as Heaven?

No. There's no such place.

Yeah. That's just a delusion from back when humans believed in a God.

Eventually, we die and all the pain and all the sadness ends.

You can't change that.

I'm not so sure.

Isn't it different for Newtypes?

Rita!

New Hong Kong

I don't distrust you, of course.

However, if anyone ever found out that I showed you those documents,

I would be lucky to only be arrested.

- At worst, I would be-- - You needn't worry, Vice Admiral Mauri.

No harm will befall you.

"In change can be found the great ultimate.

The great ultimate generates the two modes.

The two modes in turn generate the four basic images.

And the four basic images generate the eight trigrams."

Divination is the art of using divining sticks to attempt to ascertain

the workings of the dual yin and yang elements that comprise all things.

It is no different than a computer that uses calculations to work out probabilities.

The only difference

is that the intuition of a diviner

is required to decipher the results.

I see...

If that is your foresight, Lady Michele,

by all means, proceed.

Is it wise to trust her?

She may be Chairman Luio Woomin's second daughter,

but she isn't his biological daughter, right?

Ever since Chairman Luio fell ill and became bedridden,

there have been rumors his real daughter, President Stephanie Luio,

is planning to oust him.

- Her divinations are supposedly spot on. - Sir?

During all the postwar upheavals, Luio & Co.

never once misread the political situation.

During the Gryps Conflict, they allied themselves with the AEUG,

and during Char's Rebellion, they were the first to pull out of Lhasa.

- Surely you don't mean her divinations-- - I doubt that was the only reason.

But it seems to be a fact that Luio Woomin always consulted Michele

whenever he had to decide on a plan of action.

But, sir!

The Gryps Conflict happened a decade ago!

She would have been a child at the time!

Yes. The Miracle Children.

Miracle Children?

A idle gossip that went around during the war.

The RX-0 Unicorn Gundam...

A mobile suit made of psycho-frame,

an alloy that responds to human will.

However, no one refers to that machine

by that name these days.

Singularity One.

A technological singularity.

A technology whose appearance

will transform human society to its very core.

Predictions reach an impasse there.

I'm not sure if this is something that ought to be called technology.

The true nature of this pulse-like effect

as well as the mechanism by which it was generated, remain unclear.

All we know for certain is that every last Federation suit that was hit by it...

These documents say that their generators were disassembled.

It's as if the clock was turned back to before they were ever built.

The Gundam that was hunted by Federation and Zeon alike

when it was considered to be the key to Laplace's Box.

Over the course of that conflict it began to exhibit unknown powers,

eventually becoming something that was beyond human comprehension.

Was this the result of the psycho-frame

reacting to its pilot's Newtype abilities?

Whatever the case, an uncontrollable weapon can't be considered a weapon.

Singularity One, which was in the possession of the Mineva faction,

and its sibling unit, the Federation's Unit Two,

were both dismantled in the presence of inspectors

and sealed away.

When confronted by this godlike power that it had unexpectedly gained,

humanity could only flinch and recoil from it.

However...

Father, I'll be back soon.

This power that can manipulate time itself...

I'll get it no matter what, and once again...

"Prior awareness of the colony drop...

The Miracle Children

who saved a town"...

North America / Colorado Mountainous Region

All this fuss every time I'm relocated...

You don't need to go overboard to keep me in custody.

That should be clear by now.

Come now, don't sell yourself short.

No one knows more than you about the extent of the Vist Foundation's

involvement in the Laplace Incident.

- What was that?! What's happening?! - We're under attack! From the skies!

Don't let yourselves get surrounded! Spread out your mobile suits! - These guys are pros! - These antiques are useless!

- Do you have to do that? - Jona!

- You're on rear support! - But I--

We can't let you get hurt right now!

You bastards!

Martha Vist Carbine!

Do you remember me?

You're Luio & Co.'s-- Michele Luio!

Why are you...

Anaheim and the Vist Foundation have both turned their backs on you.

But I can give you a new life.

And in return?!

The White Unicorn and the Black Lion...

What I want is the third brother!

The Phenex?

The military may have expunged all record of it,

but you witnessed that incident firsthand.

Tell me. Everything.

You can't say no to me.

Can't say no...

You have to know it, Jona! We aren't the real thing!

There's only one real Miracle Child!

This is the only way! This is the only way the three of us can survive!

Liar...

Vicinity of Side 4 / Shoal Zone

You're not getting away!

Phenex...

Pavel! Delao!

Can you target just its thrusters?!

- Amaya! Can you see it? - Yeah!

Speed... Distance... Tracking sensors locked!

It accelerated again!

How can the pilot survive that?!

That blue light isn't coming from its thrusters!

All units! We'll stop it in its tracks! Don't hold back! Try to hit it for real!

RX-0 Unit Three...

The third of the Unicorn brothers...

Where did you come from, and where are you going?

And who's inside your belly?

Attention, Shezarr Team units! Do you copy?

We'll herd the target.

On my signal, scatter and then regroup at designated point Oscar.

Who is this?! State your affiliation!

Who is this?! State your affiliation! We cannot guarantee your safety if you do not comply.

We cannot guarantee your safety if you do not comply.

Ten!

Nine!

Eight!

All Shezarr Team units, scatter immediately!

Seven! All Shezarr Team units, scatter immediately!

Six! All Shezarr Team units, scatter immediately!

Five!

Four!

Three!

Two!

One!

- It stopped! - High-temp object closing in from rear!

- Commander! What the hell is that?! - Damned if I know! It's news to me!

There's a Gundam at designated point Oscar?

Narrative accelerating even further!

Relative distance to target closing!

The pilot's physiological and mental readings are unstable.

I believe he can only remain close to it for 200 seconds.

You won't get away...

Narrative! Use the high mega cannon!

She's going to shake you at this rate!

Not yet! She could dodge it!

Adjusting deflection... Next shot, range... 12,000...

Firing solution... set! Shooting... now!

Do it!

I have her!

Damn it!

Here it comes...

- It's not safe to continue. - Narrative!

Use the high mega cannon immediately!

If you get thrown from your cockpit at that speed,

you're the one who's going to die, Jona!

Shoot!

Rita!

That's you, isn't it, Rita?! If it's you, hear me out!

It's me! It's Jona!

Jona Basta!

You can hear me, can't you, Rita?!

I know this is coming too late!

- But I-- - Gundam! Do you copy?

I don't know who the hell you are, but I'll give in to work with you.

Keep it up and drag it to the designated point!

We finally found our phoenix... Don't blow it!

Hey, do you think there's really such a place as Heaven?

I don't know about Heaven,

but I'm absolutely sure that there's such a thing as the soul.

This life isn't all there is.

We're reborn again and again.

Rita...

Dumbass! All units, scatter! Scatter!

In my next life, I hope I get to be a bird!

How about you, Jona?

Side 3 / Republic of Zeon

Side 3 / Republic of Zeon You appear to be playing a dangerous game, Minister Monaghan Bakharo.

You appear to be playing a dangerous game, Minister Monaghan Bakharo.

I can't believe you'd use Sleeves remnants to intervene in a Federation operation.

Nothing gets past you, Highness.

However, this is a highly political issue.

Simply keeping the Magallanica within Republic of Zeon territory

requires constant political effort.

Given the increased momentum for space colonist independence

after the Laplace Declaration,

if your whereabouts were to become known, Highness...

So you're saying,

"This is all to avoid a war"?

- I do hope you can understand. - Very well.

Have Zinnerman sent to me.

- Minister... - She isn't the sort to sit idly by.

Don't take your eyes off the Magallanica.

- Warn Zoltan, too. - Yes, Minister.

Hey, how come work on our stuff's getting pushed back?

How should I know? They said the Narrative gets top priority.

"Narrative"?

Captain!

Don't start with me, Cdr. Iago. I'm a victim here, too.

So what is this thing?

Reinforcements.

They said they had brought new, experimental equipment with them,

so we should just be thankful and take them aboard.

"Reinforcements"?

Phoenix Hunt is a top-secret mission answering directly to Staff HQ!

It was Staff HQ that sent them.

Are these people from Anaheim?

- No, from Luio & Co. - Luio & Co.?

- That big trading company on Earth? - How'd they get this stuff?

Apparently, Anaheim has entrusted them

to conduct experimental operations with that Gundam.

Look, just try to get along--

Wow, that's some heavy gear.

He don't look normal! Are you sure he ain't a Cyber-Newtype?

It's possible, right? That thing's like the Phenex!

It takes a Gundam to catch a Gundam, and the same with a Cyber-Newtype, huh?

How are us mere mortals supposed to compete?

I'm terribly sorry.

We've taken over use of this block.

Funny, I thought I was the commander of this ship's mobile suit force.

I'm well aware of that.

However, we have authorization for our suit maintenance to be treated as top secret.

Fine, whatever.

- Hey, you can't be here. - I'm observing! What's the big deal?

Oh, so those are add-ons...

The idol's true form is about to be revealed.

Huh? It's kinda, you know...

The damn thing's a scarecrow...

He needs to recuperate.

His vitals are within normal ranges, though.

Understood. Step outside.

Hurry up and get dressed.

- Why did you let her escape? - She got away.

- Liar. - I'm not as good as you.

No. You're nowhere near as good as me.

When you lie, it's written all over your face. Always has been.

If we had kept hounding her, there was a chance she could have been shot down.

If we don't capture her alive, there's no point to all this, right?

If she could be killed that easily, I wouldn't need her in the first place!

Can't you see it?!

She's not human, not anymore! The Miracle Child is a genuine--

I want to claim that power for myself.

I have the right.

I'm the one who did everything.

That girl always has what I want...

Get some rest.

I don't intend to wait around for her.

This time, we're taking the fight to her.
