"So pretty... 8 hours and 12 minutes, she's slept so long." "For a legendary soldier, she is cute when she's sleeping." "Were you ready to see her?" "She sure will be surprised." "When we get to Utopia." "Utopia..." "Olympus A5, requesting permission to land." "Don't get too close before ID is confirmed, or the Gun Platform will fire." "Olympus A5, come in."

"It was ordered by the Legislative Council." "Still sleeping... maybe we used too high a dosage?" "Don't move or I'll break your neck!" "Deunan Knute, Second Team Captain, stand down!" "Briareos..." "I can't believe it." "I don't blame you, but it is the truth..." "So after such a large scale World War, there is no winner?" "Right." "After that, the previous administration took over." "In other words, Olympus is now controlling the world." "Then that means I knew nothing, and kept fighting for months with no cause?" "That's how war is, isn't it?" "Well, it's different here." "Olympus is the ideal government that mankind has searched ages for, a Utopia." "Why did you bring me here?" "Because you are not a normal soldier." "Your name is the first on ESWAT's list." "It's my job to bring people on the list from the "Badlands", to Olympus." "ESWAT?" "I know you must have lots of questions." "But, please take a good night's rest." "We will continue tomorrow, and I will show you around the city." "Deunan, I'm sure you will fall in love with our Utopia." "Here is your bedroom." "Haven't slept on a soft bed for a long time, have you?" "I'll pick you up at 10AM tomorrow." "You are Hitomi, right?" "That's right." "Have we met before?" "I'm afraid not." "Goodnight." "When..." "In the battle of North Africa," "I lost my body." "It's been over a year." "This is Carl's..." "Your father left it for you." "Hang onto it." "Call me if there's trouble." "Briareos..." "Out there.. do you know who attacked me?" "No." "What a pity..." "Athena, you ordered that attack didn't you?" "It's impossible for mercenaries to compete with ESWAT." "Have you forgotten the purpose of the Bioroids?" "If the military learns of this," "General Uranus would surely retaliate." "We won't be able to control them by ourselves." "Gaia may be reaching it's limit." "Athena, we don't have much time left." "Nike." "They've found out." "My apologies, Ma'am." "Nike, we need our man inside ESWAT." "I'll make preparations right away." "The worst of it is... we didn't find what we were looking for." "But that means.." "The time hasn't come to use our last resort." "However, the fire has to be put out before it grows." "Catch Deunan Knute by all means!" "Yes Ma'am!" "Man is such a strange creature, he falls for his own traps." "Captain Hades, I never thought you would come here personally." "Imagine, ESWAT chasing after false information..." "We have now reached 98% completion..." "Outstanding." "The problem with the special part on the leg was also solved." "General Uranus will be pleased." "Now the Bioroids won't be able to do as they wish." "We should not be protecting wolves." "Instead, we should protect those who are sheep, shouldn't we?" "That was the principle for our first generation Bioroid." "However some of these wolves are disguised as sheep." "No matter wolf or sheep, there should not be sacrifice." "So tragic." "We've known the answer to this." "Even then, we still must debate with Gaia." "Indeed, let us continue our debate with Gaia." "Deunan!" "Briareos!" "Morning, Deunan." "It looks good on you, come on." "Your visa was approved this morning." "So Deunan, you are now a citizen of Olympus." "Beautiful, isn't it?" "Compared to where I was yesterday, it seems like a dream." "From today on, this is your reality." "Everyone seems happy." "It's because 50% of them are Bioroids." "Bioroids?" "Man-made humans." "Clones?" "No, not a simple clone, but hybrid humans with carefully selected genes." "Does that mean the city is controlled by clones?" "You know, it's not polite to say "clone"." "I myself am one of the Bioroids." "Despite seeming superior to some," "Bioroids don't control humans." "Bioroids coexist with humans peacefully and are an important part of society." "Half of them are Bioroids..." "This car is kind of weird." "It has a Damysos System installed." "Damysos System?" "Yes, it's hovering." "Well, drivers live longer." "So they've actually completed the technology?" "But, you can control the car with the steering wheel?" "In this city, the use of automated technology has reached such level, the steering wheel has become one of the few things that still give people a sense of control." "Functional simplicity, structural complexity makes people more human, right?" "What do you mean?" ""People first"." "That was the basic philosophy of the original architects." "There are the capital buildings." "Tartarus and Daedalus." "Within, is the "brain" of Olympus, the I.N." "I.N.?" "The "Intellectual Network" central control system." "Known as Gaia." "Gaia evolves with the network and monitors all of Olympus." "...especially we Bioroids." "Why's that?" "Well, humans have emotions." "They argue amongst themselves, and start wars with one another." "Bioroids have limited emotions." "They don't hate others so there won't be any fighting." "But, there is an invincible defense system, "D-Tank", which stores a virus at the top of Tartarus." "If the virus is released, all Bioroids will die." "It's a product of the human defensive instinct, it's really a shame." "You believe humans are more dangerous." "That's why balance is so important." "Gaia monitors the effect of the Bioroids on humans." "Then it's the humans that are being monitored." "You sound like General Uranus." "Who?" "General Commander of the Olympus Military, an extremist that hates Bioroids." "A being that's unfit for a Utopia." "Olympus is controlled by Bioroids." "Administrative Director Athena is a Bioroid too." "Athena?" "Athena?" "Do you know her?" "Probably not..." "The Administrative Director is just like a President." "But, the military is controlled by humans." "Scary, right?" "Recently, the ESWAT under Athena has been growing larger and relations with the military go from bad to worse." "But, all decisions in Olympus are made by Gaia." "Something wrong?" "We've got company." "Hitomi, are you ok?" "I think so..." "But what could..." "They know what they're doing." "Seems like I'm the target." "So it seems..." "I guess this is my reality..." "Briareos!" "...cannot unseal the Appleseed..." "How are you doing, Grandpas?" "Hitomi, are you alright?" "Are you hurt?" "I'm okay." "And I bring you the long awaited Deunan Knute." "Ahh, the legendary beauty!" "Goddess of Fighting." "You have Carl's eyes." "You know my father?" "Not only that, most of the Bioroids in Olympus have inherited some of Carl Knute's genes." "That means Hitomi is your sister." "We've heard you encountered some unpleasant things." "It's getting very complicated to control people from the outside." "We worry that the balance will be broken." "First, let us introduce you to Gaia." "How are my pesky colleagues?" "The Legislative and Administrative Councils have begun confronting each other on the issues of the Bioroids increasing population, and so on." "Athena is really targeting Carl's daughter?" "Positive, sir." "Everything is prepared." "Degree of the information source?" "It's level 5, sir." "General, we await your orders." "Humans cannot be the tools of souls any longer." "This is..." "Gaia?" "Gaia lets the network expand to better control Olympus." "Gaia speaks with the Seven Elders and the conclusion becomes the spirit of Olympus." "Gaia is the result of the hard work and intelligence of many scientists." "However, a machine is a machine." "It's absolutely stable." "A reliable tool." "No emotions, no feelings." "Only with the seven of us, could Gaia think more like a human." "But, we have different opinions from Gaia these days." "Our job is to debate with Gaia." "The conclusion of the discussion will lead Olympus in the right direction." "Deunan, you were still on the battlefield yesterday, right?" "What did you fight for?" "Well..." "Human beings will not stop fighting as long as there are emotions and desires." "That is why Olympus was built." "The last hope for human beings is coexistence with the Bioroids." "Gaia continuously monitors the balance." "Bioroids are totally different from humans." "Without the ability to reproduce, they can have no children." "No sex." "No love, no desire and therefore no hatred." "However, if the life-extension process is not carried out regularly, they will get old very quickly and die." "We wanted to make Bioroids different from humans, so we restricted their reproductive ability, thusly changing their life-cycle." "Hitomi, aren't you due for your own life-extension process?" "No worries, I'm going in two days." "I hope someday there will be a less troublesome process." "Kudo, all your team members are dead." "Your all blue -- keep practicing." "Starting with only a knife, she killed 16 men in ten minutes." "She really is amazing." "Still too arrogant." "Your team members might save your life some day." "You shouldn't act like a smart ass with them." "It's been so long since I've seen you, can't you say something else?" "Can't you say anything else?" "Like "how have you been?"" "Or "Nice to see you again"." "They are interested in you." "I know." "But why would anyone be interested in me, who are they?" "I don't know." "Then what's "Appleseed"?" "I don't know." "I don't want to hear a mechanical answer." "I'm sorry." "Right now, my mission is to protect you." "Mission..." "Tomorrow we meet at 0900 hours." "Well... if it isn't the legendary soldier, Deunan Knute." "I heard you were killed in the War." "The stories of you fighting in North Africa became legends." "May I sit here?" "Sure." "Deunan, what about your father, Carl Knute?" "He died before the World War." "I see..." "Your mother?" "I can't remember anything about her." "My father didn't tell me anything either." "You and Briareos were lovers, right?" "That was when he still had a human body." "So the body is more important than love?" "That's not what I meant." "To man, the body is a sex symbol nonetheless." "So..." "How does it feel to be in love?" "A Bioroid's emotions are limited." "We don't know what love feels like." "I can read about it, but, I can never actually experience it." "So, I've only become more curious." "I suppose in that sense, I truely envy human beings." "A woman in love, what is that like?" "The feeling of loving someone..." "You bastard!" "Your only a Bioriod!" "How dare you..." "Olympus Military... always causing trouble, always making a scene." "Synchro-test finished." "No errors found." "Only thing left is to adjust the belt." "Can you explain to me, what's the reason for the reduction in shock-absorption?" "I've already mentioned that." "Dynamic structure can absorb shock." "But, the cartilage has many structures, joints, bearings and depressor mechanisms that are self-restrained, they will dislocate under too much stress." "Yoshitsune-kun, remember this is Deunan Knute." "But, women aren't usually able to operate Land Mates." "OK, let me try." "Help me adjust the safety belt." "Deunan, Yoshitsune-kun is the best mechanic in Olympus." "When it comes to Land Mates." "You should look into Hecatonchires next." "Next time, let me see the interior structure please." "Forget it, I'm blushing now." "All secured?" "Yea, I'm fine." "These are the keys for the start switch." "You need to practice first, take it slowly." "Right, right." "What's happening?" "It's the emergency launch alarm!" "Unidentified Land Mates have breached Gaia's Research Center!" "ESWAT respond immediately!" "Stop wasting time, let's go!" "Alright, I'm going." "Like that?" "!" "Deunan!" "Stop!" "Here they come." "Targeting..." "Deunan..." "Wait!" "Don't come this way!" "Don't move!" "Briareos." "It's my fault..." "What mindless waste." "The third generation Bioroids are all destroyed." "The DNA systems for the life-extension process were all destroyed too." "They came in through the underground elevator shaft." "All 7 levels of security were breached." "None of the insurgents were from outside of Olympus." "We don't know who owns those Land Mates." "How could this happen here... we have to face the reality of the situation." "This leaves us with no alternative." "From now on block all entrances to Tartarus and Daedalus." "No one is permitted to access the D-tank from the top." "Yes Ma'am." "Call for an emergency meeting immediately!" "I wonder if Deunan is okay..." "Hitomi!" "Don't tell me..." "She exceeded the life-extension limit by over three days!" "Hitomi!" "We are still not clear who owns the Land Mates that attacked Gaia." "This concludes the ESWAT report on the terrorist attack." "All Bioroids, please remain calm." "We are trying to restore the life-extension process." "Please be patient and do not panic." "Administrative Director Athena, isn't it beyond ESWAT's authority to blockade all entrances of Tartarus and Daedalus?" "This is the only option under martial law." "It's our responsibility to protect Gaia." "And not the D-tank?" "To protect Gaia." "Regardless of the Olympus Military?" "I chose the only option available." "What are you implying?" "Are you trying to insult me?" "Please, we have no time to argue!" "Ladies and gentlemen, the terrorist attack was targeted on the Bioroid population, an unforgivable tragedy." "If this continues, the Bioroid's fate will be to perish from the surface of Earth." "However, there is one way to save them and protect Olympus." "It took a long time to come to a conclusion." "We discussed it with Gaia for quite awhile." "Gaia has made a decision." "Gaia wants to let Bioroids live, by giving them the ability to procreate." "Concerning the technology to restore Bioroid reproductive ability," "It's my understanding that Dr. Gillian, developed the technology, and erased all of the research data, which made the development impossible." "That's true, General Uranus." "If the technology's data was indeed erased, it's impossible to develop it again." "However, the lost data which we called "Appleseed" does exist!" "Soon we will find the lost Appleseed, and restore the Bioroid's reproductive ability, to help them evolve into a new form of human race, and build a new world." "Hitomi!" "She's OK." "Only sleeping..." "Are you sure she can be saved?" "As long as we find the lost Appleseed." "If not?" "Her body will degenerate very quickly." "She will die within 24 hours." "Not only Hitomi herself, all Bioroids will face the same fate." "I am Administrative Director Athena Reyes... you are Deunan Knute?" "Deunan." "Do you know Dr. Gillian?" "No." "We have researched for over twenty years, and still we can't replicate Dr. Gillian's work." "However, if we find Dr. Gillian's Appleseed, the Bioroids reproductive ability can be restored, and we can build the new human race regardless of the D-tank." "Gaia has finally decided." "Athena, we are all depending on you." "Deunan, we need your help." "This old disc is the only clue?" "Is it true that the first generation Bioroids were born in this research center?" "Yes, from what I'm told." "I wonder why Athena kept the data on this disc a secret?" "Why did she restrict the Bioroids ability to reproduce?" "Deunan, this is a secret and dangerous operation." "We need to concentrate on the mission." "Hopefully, everyone can be saved somehow." "Don't get distracted." "Can I ask you a question?" "During the terrorist attack, your last shot nevermind, forget it." "Deunan, Redon, here." "No mistake about it, this is it." "Kudo, stand back." "Dr. Gillian, there's no time, you must hurry!" "Athena, there's still some data left, I have to erase every last bit." "We'll try to hold off the first attack, please hurry!" "Mama." "What's wrong?" "Did you wake up?" "It can't be..." "What is it, Deunan..." "Mother." "Deunan, listen carefully." "Mama hid the most important information inside this pendant." "But, bad men wanted to take it and do bad things." "So, mama had to hide it." "Bad men?" "Yes." "Bad men that want to take away Deunan's future." "So, Deunan must protect this pendant, for mama." "OK, Deunan will protect it for mama." "Good girl." "Deunan, if Athena asks you for this pendant, give it to her, OK?" "." "Athena is the only exception." "Got it." "Only give it to Athena." "Deunan, protect the Appleseed for mama." "Deunan, do you remember what we are looking for?" "Do you remember?" "Carl's pistol..." "Is Appleseed inside that pendant?" "Dr. Gillian, stay where you are." "Don't move!" "Please... don't move!" "Mama, what is it, mama!" "Deunan, don't come in here!" "Don't shoot!" "Mother..." "Trouble." "Olympus..." "When did they..." "How did they know we were here?" "There's too many enemies, the dock is occupied!" "Only way out is up." "To the roof!" "Alright, everybody freeze." "Room D, 5th floor." "Redon, you betrayed us!" "I've always hated Bioroids." "As for traitors, hes the first one." "Hades." "Deunan, long time no see." "I regretted not killing Carl myself." "No wonder you smell like a Bioroid." "Even with that cyborg body, you two are still together?" "To be honest, I was afraid the seven old men might be up to something." "Trusting them was your weakness, Briareos." "Briareos, what's going on?" "Let me tell you Deunan." "The one behind the attack on Gaia, is Briareos." "Remember the Land Mate that got away from him?" "Because of him, many Bioroids died." "Is that true?" "Answer her, you dog!" "Now, give the pendant to me." "Deunan!" "Hurry, head to the roof!" "Hurry!" "Kudo!" "Let's go!" "Don't come any closer!" "Stay away from me!" "Deunan, give me the pendant now!" "They want the pendant, not you." "My mother protected this with her life." "You knew everything from the beginning, didn't you?" "Deunan." "Deunan!" "Deunan!" "Have you finally realized it was that monster?" "Deunan Knute." "I am the General Commander of the Olympus Military, Senator Edward Uranus." "Carl Knute was my old friend, so was Dr. Gillian." "I even remember when you were just a child." "We don't want to hurt you." "Just hand over the research data." "We are preparing to overthrow the Legislative Council, take control of the D-tank and eliminate all Bioroids." "To make human society more human again." "But, the data in your hand will ruin our plan." "Could you please give it to me?" "I refuse." "Deunan!" "Deunan." "Olympus is not the Utopia your parents' once envisioned." "My father had always forced me to fight." "But, I never really understood why," "Now, I know why." "General, my mother's last words were that I am not to give this data to anyone except Athena." "Bioroids aren't worthy of your trust." "They will continue to control humanity." "Maybe they aren't to be trusted, but one thing is clear." "Bioroids don't kill each other!" "General, we are wasting our time." "Deunan, it's a pity." "Athena was trying to protect human society." "So were Carl and Dr. Gillian." "They tried to hide the Appleseed to protect humanity." "They wanted to prevent the rapid evolution of Bioroids." "Because Bioroids are dangerous." "No." "Dr. Gillian's work will continue," "Athena is allowing them to evolve gradually." "General..." "Bioroids have never been a threat to human society." "It's true I helped Hades with the terrorist attack, to slow down the evolutionary process of Bioroids," "and keep your lost memories lost." "Athena wanted to keep it a secret until the end." "My real mission is to give the Appleseed to the Seven Elders." "So I took the job to protect you." "If so, that pendant must be destroyed." "General, don't you think it's strange?" "The Seven Elders wanted Appleseed before even needing it!" "It's because they want to use it to detonate the D-tank!" "Don't you think there is an important reason for Athena to protect the D-tank?" "General, don't stand by while the D-tank is destroyed!" "Briareos!" "Don't be fooled by the words of that worthless machine!" "This is revenge, Deunan!" "Can you imagine the hell I went through after I was discharged from ESWAT?" "This is my revenge on Carl for getting rid of me!" "I will kill all Bioroids with his DNA!" "I will kill all Bioroids!" "Hades..." "Deunan!" "If you want to blame someone, blame your father!" "I'm sorry." "Don't speak any more." "...it's the latest cyborg body, and I still feel pain when I'm hit." "Please, try not to speak." "I've wanted to see you..." "When I was dying on the battlefield," "I just wanted to see you one more time." "Then I was saved by the Seven Elders." "If I can protect you, nothing else matters." "I know." "I became a monster like this." "You didn't change." "You're still you." "But " " I can't protect you any more..." "I won't let you die." "Deunan, humans " "Briareos!" "There won't be a single human sacrifice." "The Seven Elders promised that." "But, they were planning something secretly." "Go, hurry!" "But, I can't leave you here." "The future of the planet is in your hands." "I don't want a future without you." "Deunan, don't let your mother die in vain." "Enough!" "Don't speak any more!" "Deunan " "Briareos..." "Briareos!" "Briareos sent an S.O.S. signal when he was hit." "The Hecatonchires' body structure is really something." "The tissues are restorable, we might be able to save him." "Save him, please." "There should be fuel enough for the trip." "That Land Mate is equipped with a Damysos System." "Flying is far more stable, the centre of gravity may have some offset, but 60 deg rotations shouldn't be a problem" "Deunan, even we Bioroids, have a few feelings left." "Please save Hitomi." "Deunan Knute reporting." "Mission accomplished." "Good work." "Deunan." "Deunan, good work!" "Finally we can restore the Bioroid's reproductive ability." "Hitomi shares the same life-cycle as humans now." "Thankfully, Hitomi is saved." "Thank god." "No need to worry any more." "Deunan..." "Was it you who had my mother killed?" "It's you had my mother killed, isn't it?" "Deunan, please forgive us." "It really was an accident." "If Dr. Gillian were still alive, we would only have more options." "Why did my mother hide Appleseed?" "Dr. Gillian was our only hope... for the human race, it's final chance to survive." "Bioroids and humans coexisting peacefully was the only solution." "However, the humans never gave up fighting the decision." "They despise and fear a superior race." "With all of their being." "They no longer have the ability to run this planet anymore." "They are a disgrace to Dr. Gillian's ideal." "According to Gaia's prediction, the human race will be no more, along with the Earth, in three generations." "Deunan, it's time for the human race to step aside." "Step aside?" "We must pass the future of the Earth over to the Bioroids." "The virus Dr. Gillian developed, will have the most important role in this decision." "My mother created a virus?" "Yes, on the top of Tartarus, sealed inside the D-tank." "This virus will sterilize the human beings reproductive abilities." "No human being will be sacrificed." "Mankind's history will end peacefully." "It is the euthanasia of humanity." "My mother objected to that, she disagreed with the rapid evolution of Bioroids, so you had her killed!" "There used to be two options for Olympus:" "Coexistence with the Bioroids or evolution to the new human race." "To make a right and fair judgement," "Gaia was created." "Dr. Gillian worked very hard to develop Gaia." "And Gaia worked exactly as Dr. Gillian intended." "If Gaia has a different opinion, it's impossible to release the virus." "Just then, the World War began, the planet was turned into a wasteland." "The Olympus which controls the world came out of it all." "General Uranus' hatred towards Bioroids only added to Gaia's anger." "Eventually, Gaia was forced to make a final judgment." "To use the Appleseed to make Bioroids the new master race, and erase humanity from history." "You used me." "You used me to make Briareos obedient." "Our efforts were only to make Gaia decide." "Gaia is a hoax!" "This is the fate of humanity, Deunan!" "As soon as I press this switch, the D-tank at Tartarus will explode, and the virus will spread throughout the world." "Stop there, old men!" "It's 984G calling, act immediately!" "That switch has no use now." "What do you think you are doing, Athena?" "Bioroids were created to prevent the extinction of human race." "Did you forget that?" "Bioroids were created to obey the orders of humans." "We are no longer Bioroids, call us "New Humans"." "Athena, this is Gaia's decision!" "It's the response to Uranus's rebellion." "Punishment for mankind's atrocities." "General Uranus gave up the rebellion just a moment ago." "He is seeking to coexist with us peacefully." "The General did?" "Gaia should have realized that by now." "Deunan, Gaia is no longer here." "Gaia isn't here?" "The hostility of the human race has decreased," "Gaia should have reconsidered it's judgment." "Not before long, Gaia was manipulated, and forced to agree with them instead." "Athena you are brilliant." "The new human is perfect." "By stopping Gaia, your life-support system will stop with it." "That is correct." "We will remove ourselves from history as well." "...The Gun Platforms...!" "All Gun Platforms are activated and heading towards Olympus!" "The Gun Platforms will walk to the top of Tartarus!" "Nothing can stop them now." "All ESWAT Land Mates move out now!" "Attack the Gun Platforms!" "Stop them at all costs!" "Will D-tank's defense system hold?" "If hit by a Gun Platform at short range, it will break." "A powerful sword and a perfect shield..." "It's a shame to worship power." "At this speed, they will reach Tartarus in 15 minutes." "Have the civilians been evacuated?" "We're in the process, Ma'am." "That's our top priority!" "Once they enter the evacuated areas, attack immediately!" "Platform No.7 is the control center of all of them." "Hitomi!" "Hitomi..." "I am sorry, Grandpas." "If you send an abort signal from the control box inside No.7, all of them will stop." "But do not destroy it!" "No.7 has to be stopped manually." "The access code is 'HITOMI'." "Briareos!" "Deunan, we made a deal." "Deunan, let's go!" "Jump!" "There's no time!" "The human race will cause the planet to perish." "Deunan, we can't turn back now!" "Why not let the new humans bear the sins of the old?" "We will survive even if it's not a perfect world." "The future of humanity is up to the humans!" "Deunan!" "Not good, do they have a weakness?" "The Gun Platforms are now 2000 meters from Tartarus!" "We can't even scratch them!" "Captain, we are approaching No.7!" "Cover us!" "No.7 is " "The one in the middle." "Attack the legs of No.6 and No.8." "How about No.5 in front?" "Let it go." "Concentrate all of your firepower on No.6 and No.8!" "No.6 is down!" "Good." "How about No.8?" "There it is..." "let me attract its attention." "Deunan you approach it from below." "Got it!" "Briareos!" "Deunan!" "The Gun Platforms have reached Tartarus!" "They're climbing towards the top!" "Deunan, time's up!" "Platform No.3 is near the top!" "There's no way to stop it!" "Why?" "What's wrong..." "Briareos!" "Deunan, let go!" "No, I can't!" "Hurry, enter the password!" "Mother..." "They stopped..." "All Gun Platforms have been deactivated, the D-tank is safe!" "Briareos!" "Deunan!" "Hitomi!" "Where are the Elders?" "I see..." "Then the last letter of the access code...?" "It's up to us... it's in our hands now." "Nothing has really changed." "It must be their unwillingness to change that makes the human race guilty." "Even so, I will continue to fight." "For our children, for the true new human race..." "Mythological References:" "Briareos, one of the Hecatonchires, born of Gaia and Uranus."
