Black Rock Shooter: Dawn Fall (ブラック★★ロックシューター DAWN FALL)

You're just a bunch of scrap iron!

Where's Empress and what is she doing?

Damn it!

Tell me, where are you?

What are you doing?

Answer me…

Black Rock Shooter.

Why don't you give up already?

Everything was in vain.

Everything.

Trying to live, all the fighting…

it's all just worthless.

SAN FRANCISCO, 2062 A.D.

20 YEARS AFTER PROJECT "ELYSION" FAILED AND AI ARTEMIS RAN AMOK

THE ECOSYSTEM CHANGED RAPIDLY

THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH WAS CONTAMINATED BY ARCHE, NANOBOTS,

AND AN IRON OCEAN WAS FORMED

It's replenishing the Iron Ocean with humans.

Yes. There's one Gigantes and numerous guards.

Should we help?

Are you crazy?

Let's go. They shouldn't cause any problems.

Episode 1: "The Good, The Bad & The Mechanics"

Where am I?

Lighthouse No. 8.

No, I can't remember.

But I feel like I have to get there. Why?

Norito, I'm thirsty.

The Arche level is way over the threshold here.

Wait until we get back to town where I can test the water quality.

Okay.

It's glowing.

I've never seen this before.

Hey!

There's somebody out there, right?

Please help. Something's stuck and the door won't open.

Somebody is trapped in there.

Let's go. It feels dangerous.

But…

Titans! Those same guys might be here again.

Damn it.

Norito!

Run… Miya.

No.

Open this door.

What?

I can probably fight.

Step back.

Well, well. It's been a long time.

This girl... she's not human?

Watch out, behind you!

Hey.

Who am I?

Well, that's what I want to know.

Wait, you're okay without a mask?

A mask?

You're not human, are you?

What is that?

Don't you know? They're Artemis' human hunting drones.

They feed us to the Iron Ocean as nourishment for the machines.

Artemis…

Hey.

I… kind of remember but I'm still confused.

Show me your gun.

Out of ammo, right? If these are compatible I'll reload it.

I've never seen this type of gun.

This gun wasn't out of ammo.

I forgot how to use it.

But thanks. Now I just remembered.

You don't remember anything about yourself either?

Yes, and it's causing me trouble.

I'm Miya. He's my big brother.

Your big brother…

My name is Norito. Were you living here?

No.

My home is Light House No. 8.

I have to go there.

We've been detected.

Take me to the surface. If we fight them here, we'll be cornered.

Okay.

Oh, no!

Hey, can you take my sister and help her escape?

Norito.

With your ability, perhaps you can safely escape with her.

-No. -What?

Either we all die, or we all survive.

I just feel it has to be that way.

Whoa!

Hemiteos Unit Type 01, confirmed.

-It talks! -It talks!

It's been a long time, Empress.

Hey, hey, ho!

Done!

Hello, Lunatic. I feel very good now.
