Uninstall.

Back then, the greatest shock to our reality...

was that our lives were so primitive and simplistic, it was laughing in our faces.

Even covering my ears, the truth slipped through my fingers and left me confused.

Where in my frail body am I supposed to hold the strength to stand?

Uninstall. Uninstall.

Right now, I can't even begin to understand...

how the countless lives on this planet are essentially one.

Uninstall. Uninstall.

It looks like I'll have no choice but to act as a soldier who knows no fear.

Uninstall.

Uninstall.

It was really tough!

A pop quiz! It was math, and you know how bad I am at that!

But you got through it, right?

Somehow.

If Moji-kun hadn't warned me, it would've been a close one.

There's that sixth sense of yours again, huh?

Hattori-sensei has some habits with his teaching.

Like how he won't have a test on the same day he last held one.

Or how he'll have a test one week after we finish a chapter.

Or sometimes he'll be strangely fidgety in the morning.

When you notice things like that, it's pretty easy to tell.

Man, you should become a detective or something.

Yeah, that'd be fitting.

Oh, looks like it's about time.

Ah... yeah.

We'll be back.

Don't forget to bring your test grades.

Don't say mean things like that.

Bye!

Tsubasa, do you want to hear what my sixth sense is telling me now?

Don't say that, Moji-kun.

Your sixth sense isn't run-of-the-mill.

This time, it really is just a feeling.

A donor for Nagi is going to show up soon.

And one with a 0% chance of rejection.

A full match donor.

It's not like you to make jokes like that, Moji-kun.

It's not a joke.

Nagi will be saved.

He'll be healthy again.

Life

So you're finally up, eh?

Dung Beetle, I have a favor to ask you.

And you as well, Tanaka-san.

What is it?

After my battle is over, I want to transplant my heart into my friend's body.

Tanaka-san, if you could please arrange for a hospital where the surgery can be done...

And Dung Beetle, I want you to teleport me to the hospital before I die so there's time.

And why do I have to help you with that?

You won't?

Guess you'll just have to wait and see after you've won.

All right. I'll try to make the preparations somehow.

Thank you very much.

Could I ask you something?

What kind of friend is this person?

We lived together in the same facility.

Actually, we're orphans.

Nagi... Tsubasa, and me.

The three of us grew up in an orphanage.

Take that!

No!

Children, it's lunchtime.

Okay!

There were lots of kids there besides us, but we were the only three who were the same age.

Now that I think back on it, we were always together.

And from then on, we intended to be together the rest of our lives.

But during the summer of fifth grade, we realized that would be impossible.

That's when we saw Tsubasa as a girl for the first time.

But we still got along great despite that, and for a while, there weren't any problems.

Things took a sudden turn for the worse during the summer of our first year of middle school...

when Nagi started showing signs of his illness.

It's cardiomyopathy.

The heart tissue will grow increasingly cancerous, and his cardiac function will gradually deteriorate.

We have no choice but to transplant. It's terminal otherwise.

But if there's a donor, he can be saved, right?!

Of course, there is still hope...

if we can find a record of someone with a heart that has a low rejection rate.

But in this country where we have so few donors, please be prepared for the worst.

If a donor isn't found, he'll have roughly one year left.

We never told Nagi, and keeping things calm and peaceful, we visited him almost every day.

Nagi-kun?!

Watching Nagi weaken day after day hurt us terribly.

But deep down, I was glad that it had been Nagi who got sick, not Tsubasa.

It's cruel, but I didn't blame myself since there was nothing we could do to save him.

And that's when...

I met Zearth.

That pretty much means you're absolutely gonna die after your battles.

I thought the heavens were finally punishing me...

because I didn't care whether or not he died.

In the first place, I was a fool.

After all, there's no way Tsubasa would pick me even after Nagi died.

Thinking of her personality, I must've known it from the start.

That she would never choose me.

That I wasn't the one who came first in her mind.

Hey, where are you going?

I just have some things to take care of today.

I'll be going on ahead.

Are you pitying me?

No, it's just that...

Is it because I'm going to die soon?!

Looks like my sixth sense is right sometimes, too.

Moji, I've had enough of your consolation.

Just because I'm gonna die soon, or because the three of us won't be together anymore...

isn't it even sadder to act like this?

The three of us have been together our whole lives...

Just be yourself, as you are now. I wish the three of us could be together...

As we all really are... until the end. All three of us.

All right, Nagi.

I'm sorry...

If I were to pick the most sinful person in the world, it would be me.

It was just on a whim.

I took the test, not really expecting anything.

It can't be...

One chance in a couple thousand...

No, one chance in tens of thousands that I was a full match.

With my heart, there would be no immunological rejection.

When I learned that, I knew what I had to do.

I had the power to save Nagi, protect the Earth with Zearth, and save Tsubasa in the process.

I would give them both my life. There were no more reasons to hesitate.

Welcome, girls.

Hey.

Please, make yourselves at home.

I'm glad you could make it too, Kana-chan.

We pulled her away from her no-good brother.

You have such a lovely place!

It's so big!

Tanaka-san, you really have a sense. for this sort of thing, don't you?

It feels so mature... completely different from my house.

It must be really expensive to keep this up.

That's enough appraising from you. Have a seat!

Is black tea all right?

Ah, let me help.

It's okay.

Yay!

Tanaka-san.

What is it?

Did you find out anything about Onii-chan's situation?

Ah... that. I'm investigating right now, but it looks like it's pretty hard...

Wait just a little longer, okay?

Yes, ma'am.

Tanaka-san, do you really live alone in a place this big?

Yep.

You don't have a boyfriend?

As a military officer, I can't reveal classified information.

So that's a no!

What a waste! You have such a good sense for things, and beauty to boot.

What about Seki-san?

Out of the question.

I thought so.

But Seki-san's all right! Don't you think?

Seriously?

I can respect him as a military officer, but he doesn't eat vegetables, you see.

He's such a child, isn't he?

What about you girls?

Feel anything for the other Zearth pilots?

None of them are any good.

Kirie-kun's...

kind of emo.

And I want to slug Ushiro a good one!

He's a bastard.

What about Kariji-kun?

He's so superficial.

Yeah, total rejection there.

So that leaves Moji? The only one worth looking at.

I thought it was Moji-kun who wasn't part of the contract.

Me, too. His sixth sense seems so random, and he has this mysterious aura about him.

Deep down, I kinda wish I'm the one who isn't contracted.

Me, too.

We're all the same.

I'd bet so.

The military and government are doing everything we can. Don't give up hope.

Yeah.

Bokurano.

Nagi.

Good timing.

Moji, it looks like they're transferring me to a different hospital.

It was all so sudden, it was kinda confusing.

I see.

Apparently, I'm going to the National Defense Force's Medical University Hospital.

The doctor said it'd be best if I was at least somewhere where the equipment was in place.

Though it's not like I'll get any better.

You will. I'm sure of it.

Moji.

Yeah?

I... like Tsubasa.

Yeah.

I said I wanted the three of us to be together from now on, but...

you know how Tsubasa treats me so nicely here?

When she does that, I find it hard to hold back my true feelings.

Nagi. Definitely express those feelings to Tsubasa.

It'll be for the best, for both her and me.

I never expected that from you...

It's time to go.

Just ask Mori-san where I'll be staying.

Yeah.

Oh, that's right.

Be sure to tell Tsubasa that I transferred hospitals, okay?

She doesn't know yet, either...

Tanaka-san, thank you for taking care of the hospital business for me.

Using our supralegal authority, we've arranged for your heart to absolutely go to your friend.

Give it your all.

Now I can fight with some relief.

What kind of enemy is it this time?

What will it be good at, and how strong will it be?

There's an airport over there...

What is that place?

I dunno...

I don't know this town.

I don't see any of the National Defense Forces helicopters, either.

Didn't this happen last time, too?

It moved!

It split in two!

Are there two of them?! Or are they really just one?

Dung Beetle, what is this?!

Well, enemies should normally only come one at a time.

Then that means this thing only has one vital point?

I would guess so.

Dung Beetle, I've been meaning to ask this for a while, but where is Zearth's vital point?

Try lookin' for it for yourself.

I see...

Got it!

Then you should know where the enemy's vital point is too, right?

I'll try to get it.

It's kind of hazy... I can't really tell.

Why not? Even though you know where Zearth's is?

Maybe because the enemy doesn't want you to know, so they're jamming your thoughts?

You can jam telepathy?!

Moji, look over there!

Wouldn't their vital point be that thing between them?

All right! I'll try cutting it down!

If that's it's vital point, this battle will be over quickly.

Even if I'm wrong, the one without a connection to it's vital point should fall, having lost its "heart."

Hurry!

Did they get us?!

Can you move?

We're fine.

Nice!

They're both still alive! Why?!

Even though you cut one off from the other...!

Isn't their vital point that heart?!

Isn't their energy supplied through it?!

It's simple. They get their energy through the air.

What?

So they're cordless?!

There's no way such a huge amount of energy could be transmitted through the air!

Dung! Don't you think that's a little too convenient?!

Don't try to measure these guys with your primitive "common sense."

You all think you're so smart, eh?!

They plan to attack us from both sides!

If we're hit by those, they'll skewer us in an instant!

Zearth's arms are strong, too!

Yeah... as long as we know where their vital point is.

Which one has it?!

If you don't attack one of them soon, we'll be really screwed here!

But if he doesn't know which has the vital point and shows his back to the wrong one, we're done for!

What?

It's protecting itself.

Then that one must have the vital point!

Wait! It might be a trap!

I see...

All right, I'll know for sure if I do this!

Zearth's vital point is in its chest, isn't it?

Wait! There are two enemies here!

There's no way you can win in a one-sided defensive battle!

And now they know where our vital point is...

No, that's not it.

Moji-kun's gambling.

You mean you're going to play mind games with a robot?

Now, how will you respond?!

Watch out! It's coming straight for us!

Our head flew off!

Are we okay?!

We're fine.

Our vital point is protected.

You suspicious little mushroom!

If you won't come straight at us, then that means you're the one with the vital point!

Amazing...

Yeah.

Nice work.

It was pretty interesting this time around.

As your reward, I'll teleport you like you asked.

In winning, now there's something else I'm wondering about.

The enemy fell for my psychological warfare.

Which, at the very least, means the enemy isn't just a robot.

They have a heart, just like us.

What do you mean?

Sorry. I have to get going.

Everyone, thank you for everything.

See ya.

Off you go.

Moji-kun!

Nagi-kun!

Tsubasa!

You're going in for surgery now, right?

Yeah. A donor was found! I can't believe it.

Thank heavens!

Though when I think that someone else is dying, I can't honestly be too happy about it.

No, it's because of that person that you can live.

Hey, Tsubasa...

Yes?

If the surgery goes well, there's something I want to tell you.

So wait for me, okay?

Yeah.

Looks like the surgery started with no problems.

Moji-kun's friend will be saved now thanks to him, right?

Thank goodness.

What's so great about it?

We're not even being treated as pawns, just mere parts and accessories!

No, we're martyrs.

We're being made into the martyrs of the world.

Someone lay a branch beneath the baby bird's feet...

as a guidepost, so it won't get lost on the other side of the river.

Don't think that what you see here is everything there is to the world.

I watch your smiling profile as you gather the unripened blue berries.

I know they'll be bitter, yet your small wings shine brightly as you carry them.

Because you were born, you thought you were perfect.

You tried to fly off, but I held you back.
