Who is this vision I see floating before my eyes? Dare ga miteiru VISUAL? Me no mae no

Rushing water runs back over my body Kyuu na mizu ga karada wo sakasa ni kakemeguru

Now, the two of us think about... Ima futari wa

the meaning of our having met Deatta imi omou

Even though we must be swimming... Kitto dareka no kioku no naka

Within someone's memories Oyoideiru dakedemo

The wings of light upon your back Kimi no senaka

Spread out towards the sky Hikari no hane ga sora e hirogaru

No matter the place, no matter the past Donna basho mo donna kako sae mo

A single wish... Tadahitotsu no negai ga

Will surpass it all Norikoete yuku yo

Something is... broken?

REINCARNATION

REINCARNATION Quantum computers... Infinite evolution... The I.A.L. Corporation...

Quantum computers... Infinite evolution... The I.A.L. Corporation...

Naga... It all began with this, huh?

Kyo! Something important's happened!

Don't scare me like that!

Besides, me studying history right now is kind of important, too.

Forget that! This is about Ryoko!

Hey! Is it true?!

Is it true that Kaminagi's still alive?!

Where?! Where is she?!

Inside of the Altair.

In the Zega?!

It still isn't definite.

There just may be a chance that we can restore her, though.

We're salvaging her data.

Like we once did for you, Kyo.

Due to the transmission interference during your last battle,

it was assumed that Ryoko Kaminagi's data had been completely lost.

Entangle, time out.

However, while the data comprising her didn't transfer to the Oceanus,

it remained within the Altair's meta-body data buffer.

If enough of her memory and personality data are left,

we can regenerate her body using her genetic data...

and restore Ryoko as she used to be.

Right now, we're investigating just how damaged her data is.

This is?

Ms. Mizusawa! Please listen to what I have to say!

No. Maybe if I play it straight, but with a lighter touch...

Ms. Mizusawa, the fact is, the way I feel about you is...

No, that's not right.

Ms. Mizusawa...

Multidimensional holographic data analysis, complete.

I believe there is a high probability that Ryoko Kaminagi's data can be salvaged.

Really?!

That's wonderful!

This should cheer things up here on the bridge again!

Yeah!

But I wonder if she'll be any use to us in battle once she's recovered.

All right. Suspend salvage operations for now.

Knowing she can be salvaged is enough.

Reroute the system load to the development section.

Give top priority to the development of the Sparrow and the Holo-Bolt.

Aye, sir!

You look like you want to say something.

No, sir. It's nothing.

Feel free.

Your father was the chairman of the Mao Enterprise Group,

the main sponsor of I.A.L. Corp.

It was through your peoples' efforts that humanity could escape...

into the quantum servers when it faced extinction.

Which is another way of saying that we were the ones...

who led mankind to its destruction.

Aside from that, isn't it you who has something to say to me?

Just that I see you act in a very precise manner.

And that sometimes you might even go right over my head.

You mean how I went to Maihama on my own?

Or that I talked to Kyo?

Both, actually.

In both cases, the passage of time forced the decision.

What I wanted or didn't want had nothing to do with it.

Of course. It's no problem.

For now, at least.

Where is this place?

It's so cute!

Hey. Did you know?

This species of dolphin attacks people.

You big liar!

Huh?

What?

Haven't we done this before?

Yeah, your gags are just as lame as they always are.

No, not that. Haven't we come here before?

MINAMI MAIHAMA AQUARIUM No, not that. Haven't we come here before?

MINAMI MAIHAMA AQUARIUM

MINAMI MAIHAMA AQUARIUM No, we couldn't have.

No, we couldn't have.

This is my first time here, too.

Is this what they call deja vu?

No! Maybe it's precognition!

Hey, maybe I'll be able to predict the future from now on...

Oh, yeah. We were gonna fall in here, like this.

If you knew, why didn't you keep us from falling in?!

Why isn't anyone else showing up?!

Aren't we trying to get to the nationals?!

You want some, Hayase?

MINAMI MAIHAMA

Ms. Mizusawa. Is something wrong?

Mr. Kurashige...

Um, when I saw you rush off before with that look on your face,

I tried to come after you.

But, for some reason, I can't seem to leave the school.

Any idea what's going on?

Mr. Kurashige!

Mizusawa...

I don't understand! I just don't understand!

Oh!

Commander Shima is so cruel!

In what way?

Every way!

I'd tend to agree.

Hell yeah!

We're so close to saving Ryoko, and he just!

No, on that point, he's totally correct.

Right now, gaining a way to counter the Anti-Zega has priority.

No way!

I think it's better for Kyo now, too.

He'll have enough to deal with soon...

He'll need time to take in a lot of things.

Unconfirmed enemy shadow. Quantum weapon, responding.

Vehicle silhouette, bearing 2 o'clock! Quantum weapons, detected!

This pattern is!

It's him!

Anti-Zega Coatlicue seems to have locked on to the Garuda!

The Garuda is taking evasive action.

Where's Chris?

Boarded and standing by! He's awaiting launch!

Scramble! Have him support the Garuda!

Hraesvelg, prepare for transmission!

Yehl.

Coatlicue will reach Garuda in 90 seconds!

At last, she shows her face. You ready?

Yeah, I figured I'd tag along with you.

Don't be modest. You're the Wizard who protected that kid's backside. I trust you.

Thanks. You know how to make a girl feel welcome.

Countdown, initiated. Transmission scatter rate, confirmed.

E.X. Condition, green!

Bednorz parameter, stable.

Bednorz curve, steady!

Materialization probability flux 99.992 C.C.A.T.

Recovery coordinates, set and locked!

Hraesvelg, transmit!

Entangle!

She's coming back.

Kaminagi's coming back!

Kyo.

Kyo...

Kyo!

Kawaguchi.

I don't like all this.

I know.

I don't like that attitude, either!

I know that, too.

And you're fine with that?

You're just fine about leaving things like this?!

No, I'm not.

So?

I don't like this, either!

Good for you!

It's all your fault!

What?!

We never went to the nationals because of that punch you threw!

It was an unfair call! I couldn't let it go!

I know that!

What?!

Why couldn't you just say that from the start?!

Because I don't do excuses!

What, are you some kinda samurai now?!

Shut up! That's just how I am!

Ow...

I'm sorry.

If I'd just accepted the whole thing...

we'd could have gone to the nationals.

I'm sorry.

Dumb ass.

You're not the kind of guy who'd shut up and take anything.

Like a guy who'd just accept that would win even if he got to the nationals? Idiot...

The truth is... I would've punched him over a call like that, too.

Kawaguchi...

Wanna go hit him again?

Kidding!

Ow...

Damn. I'm bleeding!

Aw, you'll be in the pool soon. Just leave it.

It'll get infected!

It's chlorinated, remember? Chlorinated.

Look, I'm not a damn savage like you, okay?!

It's Kurage. What'd he do to make her cry?

No! Look!

Dammit, Kurage!

What are you doing on our sacred school grounds?!

Besides, no fair doing it in the nurse's office!

Oh, brother...

We were kinda hoping to keep this quiet for a while.

Having you two finding out is like publically announcing it to the entire school!

Oh, what's the harm? They'll all just find out a little sooner than we planned.

Besides... I have a feeling we should hurry.

Is that not amazing?!

OI' Kurage actually proposed to Omizu!

Well, I guess I should announce that I'm going steady with Mizuki.

"Going" steady, huh?

That's great! Everyone's on course for happiness, full speed ahead!

And with Kawaguchi joining, we'll have five members for next term!

The swim club's survival is in the bag!

Sorry, sorry! Starting tomorrow, we'll practice seriously, okay?

Since you guys blew off today's practice, snacks are on you.

What?! What?!

Okay, while we chow down some okonomiyaki,

we'll come up with a training schedule that'll take us to the big swim meet.

I wonder if there's still time for us.

Uh...

Hold it.

Don't say another thing. Got it?

Sure.

What? What's the secret? You two finally hit puberty?

Shut up, you jerk!

Why, you! Don't call Mizuki a jerk, you... jerk!

What?!

You and me, right now!

Guys, please! Don't fight!

It feels like we're back to the old days.

No... We've moved on.

And once Kaminagi's back, then we can-

Wh... What the?!

What's up, Kyo?

What's got you looking so weird?

But... Don't you?!

I see.

It's too bad.

This is the end, isn't it?

Coatlicue is closing in on the Garuda.

We'll attack as soon as we're within effective firing range. A pincer strike!

Holonic field, forming. Holonic rifles, both hands!

Entering firing range in five seconds.

Four... Three... Two...

One!

Locked on!

Fire!

Did we do it?!

Light armor is shifting phase in response to wave interference.

Our light armor's phase shifting!

Warning! Left arm, hit! Main frame, damaged!

Increase light armor density! Warning! Left arm, hit! Main frame, damaged!

Route all our Q.L. To support the armor!

Roger!

An attack our light armor can't protect against... What is it?

Hraesvelg! We'll cover you!

Negative, Lu-Shen! Stay away from us!

May-Yu! Holonic Lancer!

Okay!

Holonic Launcher!

What?!

Garuda! Hraesvelg! Combat level of both is down!

They can't take much more!

It's too dangerous for them to try and withdraw!

They'll end up like the Altair!

Soon, they won't have enough Q.L. To make it back here!

Commander!

Open gun ports for the G.A.S.P. R!

Target the Coatlicue!

Transmit the Garuda and Hraesvelg back here simultaneously as we fire!

Particle accelerator coil, activated!

Forty...

Eighty...

One hundred!

Main engine, transmission scatter rate, confirmed!

Confirm transition to G.A.S.P.R. Mode!

Range to enemy target: Twelve hundred!

Releasing safety locks!

Particle coil, secondary turbine, open!

Bearing: 8.15! Declination: 0.03!

Particle accelerator coil now at 240!

Enemy target, locked!

FIRE!

Transmit!

Entangle, time out.

Garuda and Hraesvelg have been recovered!

Portside armor has been hit!

Retreat from this area, best speed!

Pellucidar mode, off-line!

We made it...

They must have a limit on their Q.L. Charge, too.

Our light armor can't protect us from it?

That thing's gonna be a pain to deal with.

Kyo is calling!

What the hell is happening?!

The server's failed.

Constantly running this world...

has exceeded the processing power of the Maihama server.

What?

There's a limit.

It's impossible to simulate an infinite flow of time.

That's why it's started to fail.

No way...

Relax. It's not going to break down.

Instead, it's going to reset, soon.

Except for the data of Cerebrants,

the people, their memories, the environment...

Everything here in the world of Maihama will return to what it was five months ago.

Return?!

Maihama repeats the same time period.

Again... and again.

So, what happens to us?!

I finally made up with Kawaguchi!

And Kurage's going to marry Omizu! What about Ushio and Mizuki?!

What happens to the swim club?! To everyone?!

This always happens.

You've made up with them over and over in the past.

Every five months.

Can't you stop the reset?!

That's not the problem.

The quantum servers are a system to preserve people.

All they do is run these programs we call "people" in order to do that.

But those who are preserved...

are done so within a constantly repeating realistic dream.

It can't be.

It just means that within the world of data,

dreams and reality have the same meaning.

Kyo...

You've lived through this summer in Maihama over a hundred times already.

Kyo...

Awaken Me ga samete

The pain of your dream Yume no itami ga

Melts away into the night Yoru ni tokete yuku

The cold sky of the windy city Kaze no machi no tsumetai sora ga

Causes everything to change Subete wo kaete yuku

If time should turn back Toki ga modotara

If time should turn back Toki ga modotara

If time should turn back Toki ga modotara

Kiss me and say goodbye KISS shite GOODBYE

To everything there is Ari to Arayurumono

And in the endless loop of time Meguriyuku toki ni

You'll come back to me again Megurikuru anata ni

On the edges of memory Kioku no fuchi de

Time repeats itself Toki wa kurikaesu

As I imagined once IMAGE wo mita

As I wish to imagine again IMAGE wo mitakute

NEXT EPISODE

NEXT EPISODE Maihama is a world that exists within a time loop.

Maihama is a world that exists within a time loop.

For us, the first morning of September will never come.

Come on, Sogoru. Let's spend the last night of summer break with everyone, having fun!

Tomorrow, everything we've done or remember from the past five months will reset.

You will once more set out onto the battlefield.

Yeah... The sad battlefield where Kaminagi awaits you.

Next time, on Zegapain: "Battlefield of Rebirth."

My pain, never to be forgotten.

BATTLEFIELD OF REBIRTH My pain, never to be forgotten.
