The war continues
for generations.

Blood washes every generation. In
the end only empty lands remain.

The scars of war
disappear with time.

Maybe only the stars will
remember the killings and bloodshed...

...being the only
ones bearing witness.

These stars will one day
vanish as meteors do.

That is their destiny.

Only the stars
remembered the past...

The history that is
forgotten by all...

At that time, above the Galaxy,
there were...

Two countries
battling each other.

Known as the Reich Empire and
the Free Planets Alliance.

At the same time,

Phezzan excluded
itself from the war,

preferring to stand
aside and watch.

The war has been going
on for 150 years.

Are you looking at the stars,
Sir?

Yes. The stars are beautiful.

They remain in the
same place forever.

Always in the same spot.

And, it looks as though they are...

... protecting us with
those shiny blinking eyes.

Right. Compared to the stars,

the war seemed so insignificant
and less important.

I agree.

The war, us...
we're so small in comparison.

So, what is the situation here?

Forty thousand ships in total.
It's twice our number.

They intent to surround us
from three directions.

Apart from that,

The five admirals request that
you hold an emergency conference.

They wish to see you.

I know they will.

Fleet Captain.

Sir, may we express
our humble opinions?

I know what you want to say.

Do you want to tell me that our
fleet is in an unfavorable situation?

Yes, sir.

It also seemed that the
enemy got the upperhand.

We need to undertake certain
actions to minimize our losses.

Then do you imply
that we will lose?

I did not mean that, sir!

I never thought of retreating.

Why?

Can you tell us the reason?

Very simple.

This is because we have great
advantages over our enemy.

From the number of Fleets they
have, does it means Free Planets will win?

No matter what,

the war will not be at end.

We shall watch and
wait at Phezzan.

The battle between the Empire and
Free Planets is getting more exciting.

Phezzan will only stand to gain.

We can only advance,
this is our strategy.

That is only your personal view.

Your strategy might not work.

Fleet Captain, if this continues...

Enough!

Don't forget that I hold a higher
rank than all of you.

If you do not obey me,

I can punish you according to
military laws and strip you of your ranks.

Then, court-martial you for
insubordination. Do you understand?

That's all.
You may go.

I am finished.

Damn!

The arrogant blonde brat!
The boy rose to

his ranks due to his sister's
relationship with the Emperor.

He knows nothing!

He is still young.

We needn't get angry
over a brat like that.

We are adults and shouldn't
stoop to his level.

It'll be ok. They will stop
complaining once they see the results.

I won't forget.

I shall win this battle
as her birthday present.

Latest news, Those traitors...

... their fleet power is
two times that of ours.

Are we going to lose this time?

I am afraid... I'm afraid...

Is that so?

That sickening Captain.
Isn't he her brother?

That is the tradition of
inheriting of Lohengramm title.

First Expedition

Will our luck run out this time?

I don't think he will
give up so easily.

Sieg,
please take care of Reinhard.

No problem.

We will definitely win.

But if...

What are you worrying about?

... he is there...

Yes?

I don't know if he is
in the enemy's camp?

You mean the one who's called
the 'Hero of El Facile'?

That's correct.

Commodore Yang,
I've seen your battle plan.

But, don't you think
you're being over cautious?

Our Fleets are two times
that of our enemies.

We need not be afraid
of facing this battle.

Since we have all the elements of
a victory, why should we worry?

No one knows what will happen
out on the battlefield.

There is no need to worry.

No matter, everyone has decided
to reject your plans.

I'll like to explain that I've
nothing against you personally.

That is good to know.

I shall take my leave.

Back to square one?

Bad luck.

My battle plans
were not supported.

There's nothing you can do.

The older they get,
the more stubborn they get.

Honestly, I wish I can
stay young forever.

Do you think they can win?

Looking at our Fleets, we do
stand a good chance of winning.

But then...
What?

He is the Fleet Admiral.

You mean Reinhard von Lohengramm?

Yes, and he is the Commander
of that white ship.

I don't know what
he is going to do.

Please don't say that,
I've no wish to die yet.

That's why I must
keep an eye on him.

I must keep an eye on things now.

Okay, let's get going.

Let me study this.

There is no need.

We have only 20 thousand
Fleets this time.

This time, that arrogant brat
is going to lose out.

Maybe...

he has something up his sleeves.

His fighters are not as good
as that of the past.

What do you mean?

The experienced soldiers are
excluded from the battle.

Due to some differences.

A battle does not depend
only on one person.

We need brave soldiers, with
sound strategy and good command...

... in order to win.

That must mean you
possess great strategy.

Funny.
Never heard you winning before.

It has been announced.

The enemy army is two times ours
for the battle at Astate.

We shall await the Empire's
forthcoming victory.

It has been 4 months
since the break up.

We have no authority in
soldiers' personal business.

He is not close with the others.

Only that red-haired
boy follows him.

I wonder how he'll do
without our help.

Even so,
there's no way we can help him.

No worries,
I am confident that he can.

I hope you are right.

The battle at Astate
is starting soon.

All Fleets, in attack positions.

The enemy is not
stopping as planned.

Looks like they are planning a
all out attack on the 4th Fleet.

What the heck?
This is impossible.

Unbelievable.

There is nothing strange.

If it was me, I would have done
exactly the same thing.

This is bad! He is right again!

Attention! The forward
ships to commence attack.

With the direct attack,...

..it wouldn't be in danger
of being surrounded.

And it also holds the edge
of striking first.

Looks like they thought
of this point too.

Then, according to you,
what should...

There is no need
to follow through.

This battle plan is useless.

But, I have a plan.

If we do not carry this out,

We will continue to lose
another 40,000 Fleets.

And our enemy none.

But our enemy is only approaching
with 13,000 Fleets.

Numbers mean nothing.

Victory is everything.

You are right.

We planned to surround our enemy.

If we are under attack,

from the enemy
that has 13,000 Fleets...

we still stand to
lose even with 20,000.

What the heck? Attack!

All battle ships to attack.
Strike out ahead!

We shall launch a surprise
attack! Catch them unawares!

4th Fleet reloaded,
but could not be ignited.

Also, as the enemy
has used neutron beams...

... our eyesight are unclear.

What to do?

We had just load ourselves with
dynamites for our enemy?!

2nd Fleet to strike forward.

All battleships to the front.

Great! We can go out!

I don't want to die here!

That's right.

I don't want to die
on the battlefield.

2nd Fleet ready.
Prepared to battle.

Okay.

2nd Fleet, go to the
assistance of 4th Fleet.

No! Hold on.

By the time we get there,
the war will be over.

The enemy will had left
before we can arrive.

It will attack the flanks of
the 2nd or 6th Fleet.

Since we have lost out edge,

we can almost be sure
where it'll attack next.

In my opinion, we cannot
afford to lose anymore.

Then,
what do you think we should do?

We should prevent the 6th Fleet
from meeting with the enemy.

Using the fastest speed
at the shortest distance,

we should meet up with 6th Fleet,
setting a new battle field.

After the two combine,
we'll have 28,000 ships.

That's against our enemy's
20,000, means we have a good chance.

According to you,...

... you mean to leave our friends
at 4th Fleet to die.

It's too late to send help now.

The universe is too big.

How much time do you think
we need to get there?

But we can't just
leave them alone.

Then, all our separate Fleets
would be slaughtered.

We would become baits in the
enemy's separate attacks.

That may not be.

It would not be so easy
to defeat the 4th Fleet.

If they can withstand it...

I've already reported
that it is impossible.

Commander of 4th Fleet,
Admiral Pestall is my friend.

He is a great warrior.

He would not give up so easily.

That's enough, Commodore Yang,
we do not leave comrades behind.

Friends are indeed important.

But I have friends onboard
the 6th Fleet too.

The 6th Fleet is still in battle.
I don't want to lose them.

And the 2nd Fleet as well.

I didn't want to lose
the 4th Fleet as well.

The condition of the
4th Fleet is unknown.

Unknown means that we still have
hope that they're alive.

2nd Fleet is now going to
the help of 4th Fleet.

Understand?

If you insist...

I have nothing to say...

Good day.

This is bad!

We have to consider
this other factor.

We have to survive!

Go to their aid like this?

The helpers who are going to help
others need to be helped.

I wonder what the
6th Fleet will do?

Their war advisor,
was in the same batch as me.

You mean Lapp, our senior?

Yes.

His ideas are always
considered by the tutors.

Not me.

Captain Lapp, you were saying?

In my opinion, I think
the 4th Fleet is defeated?

You mean the 4th Fleet was gone?

That's right.

So, I thought,

we should unite with
2nd Fleet at once.

Of course we will unite...

... at the battlefield
of the 4th Fleet.

I think we are unable to make it.

We will be defeated by our enemy.

Defeated by our enemy?

Don't you mean us defeating them?

Enough said.

Let's hurry to the support
of the 4th Fleet.

I'm sorry.
I was impudent.

If it was Yang Wenli,
what would he do?

Organized resistance has ended.
We are winning.

Now it's time for a final sweep.

There is no need.

Let the remaining forces escape.
They are of no threat.

The enemy are only
left with two fleets.

Let's conserve our strength
for the next battle.

Yes, Commander!

Their attitudes
should have changed.

Those old men have to.
We had won.

Which fleet should
we attack next?

Kircheis?

Whichever.

You must have made
calculations already.

Right.

How long to get there?

No less than four hours.

You are good.
You have planned ahead.

Alright then.
Send the message.

Change into clockwise heading,
continue forward.

Start attack behind the right
side of the enemy 6th Fleet.

Yes, Sir. I shall pass
the message at once.

Any other views?

Not for the moment.

However, I feel that we've time
to let the soldiers rest.

What do you think?

I almost forgot...

What do you propose?

A change in shifts once
every hour and a half.

Maybe we are getting
lucky this time.

This young Fleet Commander
is so capable!

But then we are only
insignificant little soldiers.

We shall expect good
battles in future.

If you want to live,

you should take your rest.

You are badly injured.

In this time period,
one won't die from injuries.

My arm is an example.

Look.

However, in this time of war,

Victory can be
told in a few moments.

There are also less injured.

It's either live or die.
What other choices are there?

Okay, sleep now.

We can only sleep
for an hour anyway.

An hour of sleep in there will
reduce eight hours of weariness.

It'll only reduce our weariness,
no time to even dream.

This is a time of war,
we have no time for dreams.

Even if we dream,
it'll be nightmares.

Enemy Fleet 6th spotted.

Attack now!

Trace of a Fleet from
the four-thirty clockwise.

Four-thirty clockwise?

The enemy.

Prepare for battle.

Enemy attack from front,
to the right.

It cannot be.

But, Admiral...

I think the enemy have
changed battlefields already.

Do you mean for me to give up
going to the aid of 4th Fleet?

I have already told you.

The 4th Fleet have
already been defeated.

Enough. I don't want to
hear that anymore.

Something more unpleasant now.

The enemy is approaching.

Prepare battle.

The whole Fleet! Turn back!

Sir, if we turn back now, the
situation would get only worse.

We should rotate clockwise and
move for the back of the enemy.

Shut up! I am not a coward.

Yang, don't be like me...

Jessica!

I won't be able to see you again...

Please forgive me,
I have to leave you.

The 6th Fleet is
totally destroyed.

What!

Captain Lapp...

Useless advisor.

Useless, no matter how capable
they did in school.

Enemy Fleet approaching
towards 2nd Fleet!

With the 4th and
6th Fleet destroyed...

our standing do not look good.

Admiral, cannons readied.
We're prepared to attack.

You... you are ready?

Lapp, I shall avenge you.

My Fleet will definitely win.

We will defend until the end.

What else can I expect?

If that guy is
on the enemy Fleet...

You mean Commodore Yang?

Yes.

Maybe.

He was called...
'The Hero of El Facile.'

It was believed that he was able
to twist the situation around...

The Forever Night

Next Episode Preview.

The situation has changed.

The 2nd Fleet is
now under attack.

It is facing the
problem of wipe-out.

Can Yang turn it around?
