"Rikka Studios hf-network fansub division presents" "The archives we know of as history ended at some point." "Before we knew it, humans were living in this world." "(Restoration complete)" "Good." "Finished already?" "Yeah." "It's a visual record, after all." "Got it." "I'll get the next one ready." "The atmosphere is clear, and there are lot's of greenery." "It's a record from the surface layer, around 2000 A.D." "The location..." "Who cares about the location?" "Ura, I'm always telling you..." "Yeah, I know." ""Why bother doing extra analysis."" "Got it." "Send me the next one." ""Transferring to Analysis Department"" ""Population Explosion"" "Next, I'm sending two together." "There's a lot of code." "I'll try opening them." "What happened?" "Strange, it's an image record with audio." "I think can restore it." "So, until tomorrow." "I'm disconnecting the book." "Until tomorrow." "Wreckage of archives lying dormant all over the world." "Contained within them, rare fragments of the former world." "Binary code that can be restored." "That's why I was excavating archives." "Because it's the only way to understand the past." ""Archive Excavation Department #092"" ""Work Day Finished"" "Go punch your timecard at the end of the day." "I'll go back if there's work to do in the analysis division." "Hey, Riko, why are you always lying there..." "Everybody's left." "Why are you so obsessed with the Excavation Department?" "Because of the archives." "Otherwise I'd never come up to this level." "The Excavation Department is the only thing left up here." "Eventually the department will move down, too." "They say more Excavation Departments will be closed off." "There's work for you to do tomorrow." "You found something again?" "Today I sent a record." "This time a record of the surface layer when the sunlight wasn't cut off." "Green..." "Through the excavated archives... people got to understand this reality." "The world in the beginning." "The artificial world formed, covering its surface." "Humans living in the gap." "Environmental maintenance equipment in the bottom layer." "That's where it is possible to live." "Below the bottom layer, there's an area called the Sea." "According to the excavated archives, humans came from the Sea." "And so that means lots of people are eking out a living in the bottom layer." ""Transferring to Analysis Department"" "Take a look at the record I just sent you." "What's it this time?" "The green world again?" "Or human history?" "That's what I want to know." "What's this a record of?" "What's this about?" "Well..." "You should have brought me the fully restored version." "I got this far with simple restoration." "The thing I'm curious about is is this." "A book?" "It isn't, right?" "It's probably a book." "But doesn't it look strange?" "Originally books were archives where text and images were physically imprinted on material." "Like this." "Of course, you could only record once and there were no communications with other books." "But it was a medium for passing on archives, just as they are now." "So this is an archive storage facility?" "Looking at records, putting them in a database." "And then..." "Why are you so obsessed with the Excavation Department?" "Aren't you interested in knowing?" "Where are you going?" "Haven't you had enough?" "They say long ago, a lot more people worked here." "There were people everywhere." "Whenever a new record was excavated, everyone was so excited." "I'm still excited about it." ""Ocean"" ""Sky"" ""Pale" "Cocoon"" ""I won't forget you."" "How's the restoration coming along?" "It's strange." "The image fragments are without context." "Same with the words spoken by the girl." "Restoration is almost complete, but analysis might be tough." "But that's not my job." "Today no one showed up for work in the analysis division again." "Riko is still absent without permission?" "Seems she wants to quit the Excavation Department." "Dunno." "I haven't seen her in a while." "Long ago, she said people have things they want to stay the same thus they leave records." "All the things in the archives we've excavated until now ...none of it exists anymore, right?" "I'm quitting this job." "Ura, have you ever thought that maybe the archives are all lies?" "But they've all been confirmed as fact." "Ura, I often wish they were lies." ""Environment" "Degeneration"" "My grandma said when she was little, people lived higher up." "The environment maintenance equipment reached the levels up above." "But I heard eventually people couldn't live there, so they came down here" "Did you know some people continued living up there?" "My grandma was one of them." "The world in the archives." "A world where the environment maintenance equipment wasn't needed." "And people who didnt want to accept their own reality" "What's up there?" "Then she fell down from above." "She collapsed here." "They said her insides were all messed up." "Even though you can't live where the environment maintenance equipment doesn't reach." "Maybe if we researched the archives more...?" "Is digging up archives going to change this world?" "We can understand." "It was better not to understand the green world too and that humans destroyed that world." "I don't want to lose anymore hope in reality." "The archives shouldn't have been dug up in the first place." "No one wants to see more of human stupidity." "Don't you get it?" "I got it." "Even I understood." "It's something everyone understands." ""Population growth is steadily degrading the environment."" ""If nothing is done, major change in the earth's environment is unavoidable."" "So what about me?" "Maybe I just wanted to immerse myself in archives to avoid this reality, nothing more than the ruins of a gigantic artificial concentration camp." "But back then," "I wanted even a tiny bit of the world in the archives to remain somewhere in this reality." "What was she looking at?" "(Restoration Complete)" "After the woods have slept, morning" "Smoke leaves a trail in the sky" "Intersecting with the horizon" "Creating a silver cross" "Following a long sleep, morning" "The moon's waiting has ended." "It waxes and then wanes" "In the stead of a prayer, it presents a cradle" "That is the last angel" "The remaining horn" "Pale cocoon that cannot hatch" "Even if I lose my smile" "After the stars have slept, morning" "At the least, tomorrow's cloudy sky" "During the time when there was God" "Wet and glistening garden strawberries" "Promising a day when at last we shall meet" "I won't forget you" "This is "sky"..." "When I'm here, I often wonder why people long ago left behind archives." "So what are you doing now?" "There are things you want to stay the same." "OK, recording now!" "(Restoration Complete)" "Hello to everyone watching this program on earth." "This is Yoko." "I arrived here a week ago." "It's a residential area in "Sea of Tranquility"." "It's the first colony built on the moon." "And it's close to the harbor." "Places with the gravity maintenance equipment are like earth." "It's a lot more comfortable than I'd expected." "But looking up at the sky there's the rust colored earth." "Wait!" "I know it's tough for everyone waiting for a place on the immigration ships." "Let us pray together, that some day, the mother star will wake from her long sleep, for dawn to come again and for the people there." "Yoko and the "Pale Cocoon"." "Rusted earth..." "Blue..."
