166
00:12:36,560 --> 00:12:39,270
<b>So that's why they pardoned me too!</b>

167
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,660
<b>Excuse me, girls.</b>

168
00:12:44,660 --> 00:12:47,880
<b>It's my fault you both got a scolding from Coach, right?</b>

169
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,160
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>I'm really shy around others...</b></font>

171
00:12:53,790 --> 00:12:57,000
<b>Still, Miss Amano, you really are something.</b>

172
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,330
<b>I heard you were good...</b>

173
00:12:59,330 --> 00:13:02,510
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>but I never expected you to be <i>that</i> good.</b></font>

174
00:13:06,690 --> 00:13:10,320
<b>Being on the moon is nice! It makes my breasts lighter.</b>

175
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,180
<b>But here it's worse.</b>

176
00:13:12,180 --> 00:13:14,230
<b>My bra gets so tight, my shoulders get so stiff...</b>

177
00:13:14,230 --> 00:13:16,810
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>and on top of that, my breasts are on the verge of sagging.</b></font>

178
00:13:16,810 --> 00:13:18,850
<b>Don't you think so?</b>

179
00:13:19,580 --> 00:13:22,730
<b>Oh, yes, it's a strange way to apologize...</b>

180
00:13:22,730 --> 00:13:25,800
<b>but I'd like to invite you both to my birthday party.</b>

181
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,360
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>It's on the 12th of the month after next.</b></font>

00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,570
<b>That's the same birthday as mine!</b>

183
00:13:29,570 --> 00:13:31,700
<b>Really?</b>

184
00:13:31,700 --> 00:13:32,910
<b>Well, that's perfect timing, then!</b>

185
00:13:32,910 --> 00:13:35,370
<b>We can throw a party together! A big one!</b>

186
00:13:38,730 --> 00:13:40,960
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>By the way, that coach is totally hot.</b></font>

187
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,160
<b>I love that atmosphere of tension he has.</b>

188
00:13:45,270 --> 00:13:48,170
<b>Say, when's his birthday?</b>

189
00:13:48,170 --> 00:13:50,340
<b>It was 2 days ago.</b>

190
00:14:16,390 --> 00:14:18,080
<b>What do you think, Ohta?</b>

191
00:14:19,470 --> 00:14:23,090
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>I think it certainly merits further investigation.</b></font>

192
00:14:23,090 --> 00:14:23,800
<b>Indeed.</b>

193
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,170
<b>The object is coming from the direction of the Perseus Arm...</b>

194
00:14:31,030 --> 00:14:36,310
<b>Uh... It's approaching our Sol System at 99.8% lightspeed.</b>

195
00:14:36,310 --> 00:14:40,600
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>We expect it to just barely infringe on Neptune's orbit, but...</b></font>

196
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,220
<b>such speed, for such a large mass, is quite unusual.</b>

197
00:14:45,330 --> 00:14:48,310
<b>I'd like for you to find out what this object is.</b>

198
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,320
<b>Can we get an image of it?</b>

199
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,880
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>Due to a strong Doppler-Lorentz shift...</b></font>

200
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,690
<b>I'm afraid that's impossible.</b>

201
00:14:56,220 --> 00:14:59,920
<b>Which means we'll have to catch up to it and see it for ourselves.</b>

202
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,160
<b>Do we have any lightspeed battleships near Neptune?</b>

203
00:15:04,650 --> 00:15:06,090
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>No battleships, as such...</b></font>

204
00:15:06,090 --> 00:15:09,390
<b>but a vessel is out for training around the asteroids.</b>

205
00:15:09,390 --> 00:15:11,180
<b>If you used its external boosters...</b>

206
00:15:11,180 --> 00:15:14,880
<b>you could accelerate two machine weapons up to sub-lightspeed.</b>

207
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,810
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>We'll send Amano and Takaya.</b></font>

208
00:15:17,810 --> 00:15:20,830
<b>Well, putting Amano aside...</b>

209
00:15:20,830 --> 00:15:23,510
<b>wouldn't Jung be a better choice for the other pilot's seat?</b>

210
00:15:23,510 --> 00:15:27,140
<b>Amano and Takaya are both candidates to pilot Gunbuster.</b>

211
00:15:27,140 --> 00:15:28,650
<font face="Franklin Gothic Medium Cond" size="50"><b>I'd like to use this as an opportunity...</b></font>

212

<b>to let them experience lightspeed travel for themselves.</b>

213
00:15:32,590 --> 00:15:33,690
<b>All right.</b>

214
00:15:42,140 --> 00:15:44,430
<b>We will control your acceleration timing.</b>

215
00:15:44,430 --> 00:15:48,410
