Koutetsujou no Kabaneri (Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress)

Don't drop the pressure!

If we stop, it's all over!

Yes, sir.

Make the announcement.

Yes, sir.

We're passing through the abandoned station.

Please brace for impact.

Damn it!

Get out of here!

Stay back!

What you need to survive...

It's not some tool that will keep you hidden and safe.

It's the power to fight the Corpses without fear.

Shingo!

Are you okay?!

Yeah.

I owe you.

You...!

Twenty years ago...

...the people of Japan...

...have locked themselves in fortified stations out of fear of the Corpses.

They abandoned their pride and fellow man...

...and run away.

Use it.

Use it!

The suicide bag!

Hurry up!

Show us what you're made of!

Don't be a disgrace!

What are you doing?!

Pull it! Pull it!!!

Can we really be proud of our survival... that's predicated on sacrificed our own?

And we lose not only the lives of our friends.

That's why...

...I...

Mother...

Damn it!

I want the power to defeat the Corpses.

I'm... so close!

You're awake?

The Warriors held them off.

You can go back to sleep.

For now.

Did...

...another station get overrun?

Hey, did you hear?

They said the supplies are late.

I guess the front line fell back again.

How long is this place going to last?

Stop it, don't say that!

What if a Warriors heard you?!

Hey there, hero!

Running late?

Watch your calculation.

Plate 3 needs more adhesive.

Heeeey, Ikoma!

How did yesterday go?

No good.

It should have plenty of pressure, but...

What's wrong with using normal lead shots again?

Because then it'd be the same as the Warrior's steam guns.

It will just get repelled by the Corpse's heart cage.

That's why we need jet bullets.

We need more penetrating power!

And you're going to use that to fight the Corpses instead of the Warriors?

You must be insane or something...

Did you up the explosives?

Come on, because you just increased the cavity in the last tune-up.

That's it, Takumi!

Why did I skip a step?

Where are you going?

I'm going home to start over.

Hey, hey!

At least finish your work here first...

Hey, it's Ayame-sama.

From the Yomokawa family?

I like to check everything myself.

Oh, isn't it Ayame-sama.

How can we help you?

It's my father's steam gun.

It's having some problems, so I was hoping someone could take a look.

We would be happy to.

Ayame-sama.

She is beautiful.

She is the Warriors princess.

Ikoma!

Come here and help Ayame-sama!

Here's your chance, hero.

Allow me to take that.

Do you want to become a hero?

I just don't like having to run away.

Ayame-sama...

...where will you be pointing this?

The west gate is opening!

The Iron Fortress is coming!

The Iron Fortress should be coming tomorrow.

Let's go.

The Iron Fortress?

The Tree Fortress is supposed to come tonight.

Two Railforts in one day...?

Father, wasn't the Iron Fortress supposed to arrive tomorrow?

Hayatani Station has been lost.

With less stops to make, of course it would arrive earlier.

No way...

Get the inspection box!

I wonder if anyone's been bitten.

That's what they're about to find out.

They search for bite marks to determine if they have been infected by a Corpse.

If they find one, they throw them in jail.

It's what the authorities always do.

Well of course they do.

That one might be infected.

All right, start the maintenance!

Hey, look!

Just the carotid artery is thicker.

So the virus really does pass through here.

Hey!

It's rare to find this good of a specimen.

You're breaking the rules!

This isn't some curse.

We both know it!

What?

Some kid of a bigwig?

What is it?

Oh, nothing.

Hey!

You there, kid!

The exit is the other way.

Even children have to go through inspect—

Only a fool would judge a book by its cover.

It's what my brother always told me, Mustache-san.

Wh-What did you say?!

Enough.

She is my guest.

My lord!

Are you the boss here?

I am Kensho, head of the Yomokawa Family.

Yomokawa-dono, thank you for your hospitality.

Shimon-sama, I presume?

I have read your letter.

We would like to take you to our mansion first.

They're not going to be inspected?

What is going on?

Who are they?

No idea...

It's a Corpse!

He has a wound!

Don't let him get away!

A Corpse?

Stop right there!

No! I'm not a Corpse!

Stop!

Kill him!

Surround and kill him!

I swear, it's not a bite!

Please help me!

Stop!

Who the hell are you?!

He's saying he's not a Corpse!
