Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam A New Translation II: Lovers

That's it!

Bridge, can you see it?! It's straight ahead!

A biplane!

This is Beltorchika Irma of Karaba.

I'm ready to land on the Audhumla.

What?! How's she gonna land? She should be in front of us!

She's flying a biplane?!

Have her land at the stern! The deck cannot be used!

-- A guide from Hickory has arrived?! -- Yeah!

What's this about a guide arriving?!

She's landing an antique plane on board!

Point the craft's nose at the Audhumla!

Kamille! You help cushion it as well!

The aircraft is unstable!

She's too close to the Audhumla!

I expected that from Amuro Ray. He caught it gently.

No, I'm more impressed by the pilot stopping the propeller with perfect timing.

Is the pilot all right?

Well, she ain't dead.

A Rick Dias and the Hyaku Shiki?

You don't appear injured.

I'm all right. Thank you.

You must be Lieutenant Quattro.

You seriously thought you'd be able to reach us?

It was worth a try.

-- And you're...? -- Huh? K-Katz Kobayashi.

He's my son.

Preparations are complete at Hickory, I take it?

Yes! But it won't be easy to make it in time.

We'll make it.

You're Kamille Bidan, the Mark-II pilot?

Nice to meet you.

It's a relief to know there are people like you on Earth.

I was so glad to hear that Newtype Amuro Ray has decided to return to the field of battle.

I'm sure you were.

Mr. Amuro!

The AEUG plans to drop a colony on Earth to eradicate all the people.

A space colony falling...

It's like the sky itself falling.

Such a sight...!

You're that obsessed?

Rosamia.

It seems your memories have been reinforced too, Ensign...

Even now, I dream every night...

I dream of the sky falling!

I understand. I'll permit you to sortie.

Thank you very much!

We've gotta use this fog and at least get Kamille and Lieutenant Quattro back into space.

Are those orders from Bright?

The Titans in outer space are preparing to drop a colony onto the moon.

You despise me, don't you?

I'm not that thickheaded.

Everybody needs a rest now and then.

And when you finally awaken, you'll adapt to the new era.

I don't have that much confidence.

Seven years ago, you were like Kamille, weren't you?

Huh?

Beltorchika! Don't bother feeling pity for me.

So it's okay if the Titans take over the Federation Government?

Ah, Miss Beltorchika.

Captain Hayato would like to see you.

Thank you!

Could you leave a mobile suit behind?

Sorry, but Kamille's used to the Mark-II. I can't leave it behind.

A Rick Dias will be fine.

The AEUG developed that model.

So you can't be convinced to go into space?

The feeling of weightlessness terrifies me.

You're scared to see Lalah, aren't you?

You're afraid that if you return to space, you'll end up meeting her again.

No...

There are things that the living should do while they're alive.

Doing those things is the best tribute they can pay to the dead.

Be quiet!

Captain!

Char!

La-Lalah!

Hickory's signal flare confirmed!

They will send up a shuttle during our next orbital cycle!

Okay! Be on the lookout for enemies! Don't fail me!

If your father's given you permission to go up into space, then why not join Lieutenant Quattro?

I don't care whether Miss Beltorchika had something to do with it or not!

I'm just happy that you've agreed to pilot a mobile suit, Mr. Amuro!

Mr. Bright and others are waiting for us on the Argama, right?

I wanna tell him that you took me to Hickory.

Even though I'm only chasing after a woman?

If only we could use the radar, we wouldn't have to resort to aerial observation!

Indeed! The Audhumla will contact Hickory!

Major Buran. Hickory had an old shuttle as well.

Should we send out Rosamia too?

I told her to work with us as a team.

The Gaplant's heading out!

They're here!

Okay!

Lieutenant Quattro, please look after him!

I'm sure being a surrogate father will be good experience for me.

Amuro, you too.

Sure thing!

Go!

Okay!

The enemy is making its move, Major Buran!

Gaplant and Asshimar, approach the enemy from the front!

Hizack team, attack from the rear!

Sortie!

I will do my best to repay you for allowing me to join your team.

Did you really sense their movements?

There is no mistake about it. You'll feel some G-force.

I can see the runway!

Lieutenant Quattro, I'm landing.

I'll leave that to you. Amuro Ray is on the move.

Only one?!

I didn't hit it!

You can do it!

-- You got him! -- That was a fluke!

The Hyaku Shiki has been transferred to the shuttle, right?

Hurry up with the Gundam! What's taking you so long?!

It's not time yet, is it?!

We have less than five minutes! Gundam!

There's one more person I'd like to bring to space! Wait a bit longer!

Release the joints!

It can't be done!

I see them!

Mr. Amuro!

Please take Katz to the shuttle at Hickory!

Katz. Here's a parting gift. I'm sure it'll come in handy.

What?

I used it in a shootout against Char of Zeon during the last war.

But isn't it important to you?

There will be times when you'll need it.

Yes!

He made it.

Amuro...

Please look after Katz Kobayashi.

You must return to the shuttle, Lieutenant.

It will be meaningless if the shuttle gets shot down.

I'll protect it.

Where's Kamille?

Katz!

Lieutenant Quattro! You must command the AEUG!

Hurry! To the cockpit!

I'm not experienced with this thing, so I really could end up shooting you!

All right.

I'll take the Audhumla later.

What's the big deal about a mere Gundam!

Kamille! You're not gonna make it!

I'm already resigned to that!

You've already contacted the Argama, I presume.

We're currently confirming their beacon.

The G-force on older rockets can be strong.

I know.

A gun won't fire while the safety catch is on.

We'll leave the rest up to the heavens.

Take good care of your gun.

Yes, sir.

Commencing countdown.

Aren't you scared?

No, sir!

I'm scared.

I'd rather be moving about. It's a lot less scary.

It blew up!

Amuro destroyed just the backpack?!

Damn this guy!

Kamille!

I've gotcha now!

I won't let you!

I can't get a clear shot!

My Asshimar!

Set our rendezvous point with the Argama!

We're going up!

I've been listening too much to ordinary humans!

That's the guy from the last time!

Is he an ordinary pilot as well?

You're leaving yourself wide open!

I...!

It was a woman...?

Thank you for coming.

I'm Namicar Cornell.

I'm the chief instructor at the Murasame Laboratory.

And I'm Ensign Four Murasame, also from the lab.

I have a request.

What is it?

Once I sortie in the Psyco Gundam, I wish to be free to do as I please.

This is the military.

If I cannot have permission, then I will return to Japan.

Four!

Very well. Do as you wish.

Thank you very much.

I'm impressed with Mr. Kai Shiden's work.

Well, he's a freelance journalist.

You will leave here by dawn, won't you?

I also have a message from my father.

I will have Stephanie cooperate, but please understand I can't guarantee New Hong Kong's neutrality.

So there you have it.

Yet you're helping us out like this.

We are very grateful.

In the meantime, this Audhumla is blocking off the entire bay.

I'll persuade the authorities with some hush money.

Thank you. We only ended up here by accident, after all.

She's quite something.

And Kai, sending us reports in a place like this.
