High School Fleet (ハイスクール・フリート)

May 5th 11:40

Musashi, Time until Uraga Channel Arrival: 20 Min.

Ships Two, Three and Four are crippled.

Ship One, travel speed, no more than six knots.

At this rate, the Musashi will enter the Uraga Channel in 20 minutes!

I repeat. All citizens, please evacuate to the designated ships immediately.

Principal. We have a call from the Harekaze.

This is Misaki, captain of the Harekaze.

Please give us permission to execute our plan against the Musashi.

All of my classmates agree with the plan.

Please let us carry it out.

I, Mayuki Munetani, principal of

Yokosuka Girls' Marine High School, give you permission to take action against the Musashi.

However, you may only attack once.

Ground forces are also preparing to deal with the Musashi.

There's no need for repetitive attacks.

If you buy us five minutes... no, three minutes, that should be plenty.

Yes, ma'am.

Wait, Principal Munetani!

The Musashi has already disabled three Blue Mermaid ships.

The Harekaze by itself is too...

The Musashi will enter the Uraga Channel in 20 minutes.

Sis... I mean, Director Munetani.

We may not be able to stop the Musashi.

But, we will be able to buy you some time by slowing it down.

Besides, Moka... I mean the captain of the Musashi is under siege on the bridge.

You can communicate with the captain of the Musashi?

We can't get through by radio, but we can communicate with flashing light signals.

Captain Misaki, I acknowledge your plan to approach the Musashi and take action against it.

We're counting on you.

Yes, ma'am.

Let's go, Captain.

We're stronger when we're the hunters instead of the prey!

- That's right. - Aye, aye.

Captain, your orders.

30 degrees, steady as she goes!

30 degrees, steady as she goes!

Full speed ahead!

Full speed ahead!

30 away from the Musashi.

The Harekaze is approaching.

The Harekaze?

I sent them a signal to not get close.

Mike...

- Tama, aim for the Musashi's main gun turret. - Aye.

Let's stop the Musashi, no matter what.

Aye...

Mei, when we line up with the Musashi, launch all our torpedoes.

The coveted "launch of all torpedoes at once". For real?!

We'll probably only get one chance to fire. I want to stop them with that one chance.

Let's aim at their stern.

Understood. I swear I'll hit the mark.

Ricchan, Kayo, let's go!

Yes, ma'am!

Roger!

Mike... Don't tell me.

Target is the Musashi's stern. Commence fire!

Our target is the Musashi's stern. Let's have all torpedoes hit the target.

Prepare to fire!

Fire!

No good. We're not even making a dent.

All right! 100% accuracy!

The Musashi is slowing down!

Here they come!

All personnel, brace for impact!

The Musashi has fired!

Are you all right?

Thank you.

Captain.

The Harekaze...

Our stern smoke generator is disabled!

The torpedo launcher is damaged!

Fire in Number Five operation shed!

Extinguishing the fire now!

Th-They did so much damage with just one attack.

They really are powerful.

No good. It's broken.

The radio's broken.

The radio, too?

Captain. We bought them five minutes.

Rin, get us away from the Musashi.

Leave it to me!

The Musashi fired!

Here they come!

Mike!

Number One firing system is disabled!

Fire in the dining hall! Going in now to extinguish it!

This is the Musashi?

It's keeping us from moving ahead!

There's nowhere to run!

Captain?

What's wrong?

I'm going to stop the bombarding.

That's absurd!

Captain!

If I don't, the Harekaze will...

Please calm down, Captain.

I'm sorry.

Chief Engineer! Water! Water!

What? I'm on my way!

Captain, our port side engine room is flooding!

Get all the pumps in here! Don't let the furnace go out!

Even the engine room...

Captain, shall I have everyone prepare to evacuate?

For real? We're going to run away?

If a snake's head gets eaten, it can't revive itself anymore.

I'm sorry! If I were better at maneuvering...

Aye...

Everyone...

All personnel! Prepare to evac—

What's this?

Rin, hard right rudder!

Hard right rudder.

Visual confirmation of ships behind us!

Is it the Blue Mermaids?

I'll go look!

Identification signals confirmed.

The Hiei,

the Maikaze,

the Hamakaze,

the Admiral Spee,

and then, it's the Tenjin!

The Tenjin?
