"Shori no megami wo mikata ni tsukete." "All my life, you're my life..." "Anata wo aishite yukou nani ga attemo." "Zutto stand by you." ""Air and Ground Are One"." "The Xth of O." "My friend Misora-chan has become an Air Defense Force member." "Together we will defend Japan!" "How ritzy!" "Mao-chan, your vocabulary is a little old-fashioned." "Maybe that's my grandpa's influence..." "Hey, Sorajiro!" "Who gave you permission to build that monstrosity on the site of my HQ building?" "!" "Why, I got approval from the Cabinet, Mr. Rikushiro Onigawara." "You enlisted an elementary student Defense Force member and even provided her with her own toy support mecha!" "You're such a copycat!" "You're using your own granddaughter as a means of Defense Forces propaganda to go for a budget increase." "I saw through your little plan long ago." "Your granddaughter is cute, I'll grant you." "But compared to mine, I'm not so sure." "Wh-What did you say?" "!" "Sorajiro, you knucklehead!" "Big talk for somebody who was always hiding in my shadow back in college!" "Rikushiro, a man is someone who fights and fights and fights his way though." "Even if he knows it is hopeless." "Right?" "Oops." "Hi, Misora-chan!" "Were your press interviews tough?" "They sure were!" "I was more nervous than fighting against aliens." "To tell you the truth, I feel the same" "Oops, I'm sorry." "She's pretty!" "That's Yurika Oozora, Student Body President at our High School." "H-How do you do?" "I'm" "Defense Force member Mao-chan, right?" "You're a real go-getter for someone so small." "Oh, I wouldn't go that far..." "President!" "Pardon us!" "What do you think you're doing cheering her on, President?" "W-Well, it looked like she was trying really hard..." "That's not the point!" "You really think so?" "Yes, I do." "I guess you're right..." "What in the world is the meaning of this?" "!" "You not only approved construction on an HQ for Sorajiro's defense force, but you even OK'd the appointment of a special Defense Force member!" "Well, it was because..." "Are you saying that my granddaughter is not enough?" "But, but..." ""A second elementary school student Defense Force member is born."" ""Her name is Misora Tsukishima," huh?" "Why am I here when the Defense Forces are in the spotlight?" "How come the Chief of Staff isn't here by my side?" "!" "Miss Mishima is such a basket case..." "If she weren't like that, she'd be such a babe." "What a waste!" "Hey, I know!" "That's right!" "Homeroom teachers can make house calls at their students' homes!" "Which means I have a legitimate reason to go to the Chief of Staff's personal residence!" "Here, open wide!" "Miss Kagome, you're a wonderful cook." "Not at all, Chief of Staff!" "Just kidding!" "Is Miss Onigawara here?" "Mao-chan isn't here, Ma'am." "Her grandpa took her away." "Same with Misora-chan." "I-It can't be...!" "Chief of Staff!" "Grandpa" " Oops, Chief of Staff, what's my mission for today?" "It's not a about mission, but I wanted to tell you this personally." "What is it?" "Mao, never lose out to the Air Defense Force." "And especially not to that granddaughter of Sorajiro's." "You mean Misora-chan?" "That's right." "This is an order from the Chief of Staff of the Ground Defense Force." "But Grandfather, why shouldn't Mao-chan and I fight side by side?" "Because Onigawara's granddaughter is a member of the Ground Defense Force, and you are a member of the Air Defense Force!" "But it would be better to fight together to protect Japan from the cute aliens." "Misora, establishing air supremacy is the key to modern combat." "The Air Defense Force's right to defend takes priority." "You understand that, right?" "Y-Yes, sir." "I'm a member of the Ground Defense Force." "I'm a member of the Air Defense Force." "But..." "But..." "If the cute aliens come, it gives me a legitimate reason to see the Chief of Staff!" "Chief of Staff, sorry I'm late." "What did you say?" "!" "The Air Defense Force has already been dispatched?" "!" "Curse you, Sorajiro..." "You got the drop on me!" "I'm counting on you, Misora!" "Understood, sir!" "Type 2 Flight Gear..." "Download!" "Ku-bo!" "Misora Tsukishima of the Air Defense Force!" "I will protect the skies of Japan!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Hurry up and defend the skies of Japan!" "Misora!" "Get 'im!" "Chief of Staff Tsukishima!" "We've received a request from the Ground Defense Force to halt the operation!" "That knucklehead!" "Sir?" "Tell them one word!" ""Knucklehead"!" "Chief of Staff Onigawara!" "The reply from the Air Defense Force Chief of Staff is "Knucklehead"!" "What does he think he's doing, showing off like this?" "!" "Well, Miss Kagome, what's Mao doing?" "!" "Where's Mao?" "!" "S-She's just about to arrive at the touchdown site!" "Help me!" "What are you doing, Misora?" "!" "Defend the skies of Japan!" "I'm trying!" "It's too scary to do this alone!" "It's too lonely to do this alone!" "Misora-chan!" "Mao-chan!" "Mao-chan!" "Mao-chan!" "Mao-chan..." "Misora-chan, let's defend the country together!" "Our mission is supposed to be to defend Japan." "Besides, the ground and sky are connected." "Mao-chan..." "Japan is Japan." "Mao-chan..." "You're right!" "Yeah, you're right!" "So I'm gonna..." "So I will..." "...defend the country!" "...defend the country!" "What's happening?" "That's... the Light of Kusanagi!" "Impossible!" "They're full-blooded earthlings!" "Oh, no!" "Mao!" "Misora!" "Mao!" "Misora!" "Mao!" "Grandpa?" "Grandfather?" " It's "Chief of Staff"!" " It's "Chief of Staff"!" "Chief of Staff, sir..." "Can Misora-chan and I..." "Can Mao-chan and I..." "...defend Japan together?" "...defend Japan together?" " Well, I suppose..." " Well, I suppose..." "Problems lie ahead of us." "Hayaokuri de kakenukemasu, brand-new everyday." "Yoyu no egao de fuwari hirari kawasu toraburu."
