Lighting a blue light; that is destruction, slumber, rebirth Gespenst Jäger Wandering wounded, you advanced toward a definite rendezvous Gespenst Jäger Ah, your back Bears scars where your wings were plucked off Believe in that small something and grasp it once more Pulsing steel burning red, pain and then wavering Gespenst Jäger Rise to tear to pieces and rip apart any kind of husk Gespenst Jäger Have pride and raise your sword overhead I (You) Your hands (My hands) know peace! Non! That is enough Non! That is hope I will at least (Hold me) protect (Tightly) Your smile! Man, I can't believe she didn't see right through that.
Some people are so dumb.
You're kidding me Don't do it! I guess I was wrong.
The Woman in the Morning Mist One per person! One per person, please! Here you are.
What happened to Oreldo? Oreldo? I'll go look for him.
One per person! Come on, man! What are you doing over there? What's it look like? My job, of course.
Okay, all the ladies line up here! You're pretty, so I think I'll give you two.
And my address, too.
I'll be waiting! Oh.
It's not her Excuse me.
Oh, sorry, sorry.
Huh? We're back! Hey, we're back! We're back! Hey, we're back! Oreldo! Do you know what time it is? You're only allowed to take the girls out for two hours.
Sorry, sorry.
What would you do if something happened to them? Hey everyone, we bought some sausage! What would you do if something happened to them? Hey everyone, we bought some sausage! He's not even listening H-Hey! He's not even listening I will be taking my leave now.
Certainly.
You should have some, too.
That girl I don't remember her being here.
You mean Hannah? She's been around a while.
Welcome.
This is unusual, seeing you here two days in a row.
Unfortunately, Marie and Cathy have the day off.
Oh, is that so? Then I guess I'll have to be satisfied with you.
A little pretentious, aren't you? Something wrong with Hannah? Nah, I was just wondering if she's really been here.
You said something like that before, didn't you? Is she always like that? Something about her seems a little off.
Like she's not smiling from the heart or something You could be right.
She came here when she was 17 years old.
With her parents dead and nowhere to go, the owner here took her in.
Even if it is to survive, this is rough work for a 17-year-old girl.
What's more, she's waiting for a boyfriend who went to war and hasn't come back.
War? The one with the Republic? She said he was sent to the Neue Goerlitz front four years ago.
His friends brought him here the night before he was sent out.
He looked like he was still a child.
You see over there? They would sit perfectly still in that corner and just hold hands.
Captain Hunks, I made some coffee.
Oreldo, let's work hard today, too! Oreldo? Is something wrong with Oreldo? Even I don't know.
He's been like that since this morning.
Everyone, move out! Your mission today is to patrol the Haupt District.
Yes, sir! Oreldo! Oreldo, are you listening? Oreldo, she's calling you.
Oreldo! Oreldo, are you listening? Oreldo, she's calling you.
What?! Where, where? Oh.
It's just the Commander.
"Oh, it's just the Commander"? Oreldo! What's with that attitude?! P-Please, calm down! Oreldo! What's with that attitude?! I swear, it's only morning and you're already slacking off! This is exactly why we're laughed at and called a "Cheery little unit.
" Commander! Calm down! Shape up, damn you! Shape up! Oreldo! Commander! Calm down! You want to take Hannah out? Yeah.
Oh, here it is! The spaghetti here looks kinda bad but it tastes great! Yeah, pardon us for makin' it look bad.
Oh! Don't be shy, go ahead and eat.
This is a fork, and this is a spoon.
Aren't you enjoying yourself with me? That's not it at all.
Look, I have leftover rations for you today.
Hey.
Oreldo! What's wrong? What brings you out here? I just sort of Shall we eat together? I don't think she's really living.
Oreldo said that? I knew it, something must've happened.
You really haven't heard anything about it? N-No If he hasn't even talked to you about it, this must be a rather serious situation.
Should we try casually bringing it up? But it looks like he doesn't want to talk about it.
He might just be waiting for us to ask.
I'm going to ask about it! No, don't! If he wants to talk about it, he'll bring it up himself.
But he looks troubled.
That's why we should wait and see.
Martis! Y-Yes? Could you lend me some money? Stecchin.
Mar Mar tis? I couldn't stand to just sit back and watch.
You too, Martis? Let's go.
Yes, sir.
THIS kind of place, huh? There he is! Where do you think he's going? How do you like it? Feels great, doesn't it? One more time around! Love?! There's no doubt about it.
What's more, his lady friend is an unfortunate woman who lends her body to gentlemen to make a living.
I see you by the window And wonder if this love was never meant to be Well the thing about him is And wonder if this love was never meant to be Well the thing about him is As members of Section 3, I think we should support him! Is Oreldo here? He took a military motorcycle without authorization! The Vehicle Section is furious! Sorry, I asked him to do it.
I just forgot to hand in the paperwork.
That's all that happened.
Right? I haven't been here in a while.
Come over here! See? It's beautiful, isn't it? Over there is the Army Intelligence Division.
And over there is the Geurst district.
Ever since I was a kid, I've always come here whenever something bad has happened.
Enjoying the view like this makes me feel better.
I sneaked this from the military.
This stuff's good! A toast as we look at the imperial capital.
Why do you do so much for me? Huh? Why? Hannah, you were on Meinz Bridge, right? You looked so sad.
Just forget it! Forget that man who went to the war.
There's no point in thinking about a man who'll never come back.
I understand why you want to believe, but it's been three years since the war ended.
If he were still alive, he would've come back long He'll be back.
If he were still alive, he would've come back long He'll be back.
Frank will be back.
He promised me he would.
Maybe he did, but at this rate, you'll Please just leave me alone.
Dammit, what a creep.
What's your problem? Sorry, but I'm Hannah's customer.
What? Stop it, Oreldo! Ah.
You're the guy they're talking about.
Don't worry, I'll take over from here.
I'll be taking REALLY good care of Hannah Oreldo! What are you doing?! You scum! Hey! Stop it! Somebody! Somebody help over here! That's enough, buddy.
Stay out of this! Quit tryin' to act tough.
Oww Honestly, that was one big mess you made.
Sorry.
I got mad and just Anyway, what's with those bouncers? A lot of guys like you go badgering the girls.
I had to hire them.
I just wanted Hannah to smile, that's all.
I wanted her to smile from her heart.
Stop being so full of yourself.
You want to make Hannah smile? Do you really think you can do something like that? You think you have the power to do that? What a laugh.
There's no way you can.
Neither can I.
No one can.
Hannah will smile from her heart when her boyfriend comes back.
Though I'm afraid that's an empty dream.
The guy's dead.
He's dead?! What girl would accept that her boyfriend is dead just because one letter tells her so? No one, of course! Right?! He was killed in action? That's what happened.
And that girl's heart will stay closed.
If you understand, just leave her in peace.
That's what it means to be kind.
A woman who keeps waiting, huh? There's a woman who's still waiting for a guy who went to war and hasn't come back But the guy was killed in action.
Why does she have to care so deeply about a guy who's already dead? Turning into an empty shell But I can't just sit back and do nothing.
Even though there's nothing I really CAN do.
I think it's not over yet.
The war isn't over yet.
That's why people can't move on.
I was the same way.
I couldn't get a real sense that the war was over.
But lately, I've finally been able to.
Still, it's little by little.
Ever since I joined Section 3.
But I think it will happen for her, too.
It's not over yet, huh? Military Report Imperial Army It's all right, I'll be back for sure.
For sure.
I promise.
Frank! You're back? Frank! Neue Goerlitz was a battle that would decide the outcome of the war.
The Republic Army had planned to use Neue Goerlitz as a launch pad for a full-on assault on the imperial capital.
The imperial forces stationed in Neue Goerlitz were short on personnel and equipment.
Stop it.
The Imperial Army dispatched reinforcements from the capital.
I'm begging you, stop! The Imperial Army dispatched reinforcements from the capital.
I'm begging you, stop! They sent one division, which included the 7th Company.
They sent one division, which included the 7th Company.
Stop it! Frank isn't dead! There's no way he would die! Why? Why don't you try to understand? He put his life on the line and fought.
He fought for this country and to protect you, Hannah! Listen, Hannah.
You have to hear what feelings he fought with and what feelings he died with, so you can live enough for the both of you.
The 7th Company left the imperial capital and arrived at Neue Goerlitz on February 5.
The forces already stationed there were almost completely wiped out.
The Republic forces they were up against had three battalions, including a tank battalion.
In the minus 15-degree temperature, the strategy that the 7th Company took was to dig trenches and fight a war of attrition.
Despite their overwhelming disadvantage, they continued to fight.
But three days later, their food supply ran out.
They considered retreating, but they received word that reinforcements were on their way, so the 7th Company continued to fight.
Five days later, half the men were dead of starvation and cold.
But they continued to fight To protect the ones they loved.
Later, the 7th Company gained a temporary advantage, but on February 15, the Republic Army's 3rd Battalion, 4th Division reached Neue Goerlitz.
Suddenly, the 7th Company was at a disadvantage, but reinforcements were just 50 km away from Neue Goerlitz.
If they could hold out for two no, just one more day, they'd have a chance of winning.
They put their faith in that one ray of hope and kept on fighting.
But their ammunition was running out and only a third of the men were left.
If they could hold out for one more day But the 7th Company was on its last legs and completely isolated, and at 2:00 in the afternoon on February 17, a barrage of enemy gunfire began.
Heartbroken? Heartbroken? ME? You aren't? But up until yesterday, you couldn't even concentrate on your work You guys have got this whole thing wrong.
I just can't leave a woman like that on her own.
Then it wasn't love or anything? Of course not.
