The first 162 lines.
Damn it... They keep coming, one after another.
They don't give up.
The two of us came all the way to Mars
just to be trapped by an army of terraformars.
The Special Two
Talk about a life or death situation.
Should you be laughing right now, Michelle-san?
It's because you're watching my back.
Huh?
Akari, you can keep going, right?
Yes...
We made that promise, after all.
Promise?
If we beat these guys, I get to see your shower scene.
I never made that promise!
It's against the rules, but it can't be helped.
But I'm sure we'll be able to make it work.
Let's finish this in one shot.
Right!
In the year 2020,
cockroaches were sent to Mars along with moss,
which would be their food source,
as part of a terraforming plan to make Mars habitable and relieve Earth's overpopulation.
However, 600 years later, that would provide humanity two nightmares...
The cockroaches underwent an unexpected evolution on Mars,
becoming creatures known as "terraformars,"
and a communicable disease called the Alien Engine Virus, which originated on Mars
and has a 100% fatality rate in humans, is currently plaguing Earth.
In order to capture the 1,000 terraformar samples
needed to create a vaccine, many young people
underwent a special surgical procedure
and were sent off to Mars.
Evil Planet
On this distant, evil planet, will humanity be able to obtain their hope for tomorrow?
Can you all hear me?
Captain!
I want to confirm the status of No. 1 and No. 2 Divisions.
Report your status!
All members of No. 2 Division are safe.
We're holding back the west side.
Having to stay up late because of these guys...
You can't be serious!
My skin's going to get damaged!
My skin's going to get damaged!
This is No. 1 Division.
All the civilians are in the escape vessel, but...
Th-They're nearby!
What?!
No. 1 Division, I can't say we're in an ideal situation, either.
We'll head over as soon we're done here.
Do what you can to survive.
No... I'm going to protect the medicine, no matter what.
Escape vessel, just a little longer!
As soon as I take care of the wounded, I'll head over!
Michelle, are you okay over there?
Yeah... For the record, both of us have injected twice.
What?!
Hey, it's too soon!
It's better than becoming their food!
Hizamaru Akari.
You've gone way past your limit.
And yet, this passion...
Why?
That girl who was more than your friend, but not quite your girlfriend,
is already gone.
Yes...
We made that promise, after all.
I see...
Hey, can I fix that?
I'm really good at that stuff.
You are?
I've been over there, but haven't had anything to do.
The AE virus...
I'm Harukaze Sakurato.
The boy inflicted with the AE virus...
We made that promise, after all.
Did you come to say goodbye?
He'll be quarantined soon, too.
Don't say anything that'll give him hope.
The mission to Mars is cruel.
Even if we're able to get the samples,
there's no proof that the vaccine will be made in time.
I know.
Here.
Wow, not bad, kid.
Thanks.
Hey.
Is it true that you're going to Mars?
Yeah.
So we probably won't see each other again.
Why would you say that?
Because...
We're going to Mars to find a cure for your sickness.
Really?
It might be a very small, distant hope,
but wait for us, and don't give up.
I'll leave that with you.
So I can wait for you?
Leave it to me!
You fool.
Promise, eh?
Damn...
What are you? The hero of some shonen manga?
The second dose definitely takes its toll...
Akari, are you all right? We're heading to No. 1 Division's ship.
Akari!
Like hell I'm going to lose!
The net! The net!
Hurry, everyone!
You idiot! What are you doing?!
Well...
Yaeko!
Dawn?
Are you planning to crash us into the ground?
Alex!
Don't you dare underestimate
the grip strength of a (future) major league pitcher!
Alex!
Captain!
I've regrouped with No. 1 Division.
I've secured survivors of the crew.
Michelle, how are you doing over there?
Akari was taken by those things.
What?!
He doesn't have any medicine left.
That's not good.
Akari, you understand, don't you?
You and I can't fall into their hands.
We're both special like that.
So...
No... That's not it.
Anyway, just don't die, Akari!
What am I doing?
Where am I?
That's right... Mars.
I... I...
Sakurato.
Is there anything you want to eat when you get better?
French fries!
All right! I'll buy you a large order of fries!
Really?!
But my mom says I can't even have a small...
I'll even get you a double L or a triple L!
Those don't exist.
Akari...
Is that your only promise?
What else?
I wanna do karate.
Oh, sounds good.
I wanna go to the ocean, too.
Sure!
You...
And the zoo!
Yeah!
And then... And then...
The girl who had the same virus as him...
I want to eat ramen.
All right! I'll find a great place!
I want to go snowboarding.
Then I'll buy the gear.
I want to try alcohol.
Sure. Just don't drink too much.
