Do you live around here?
It's all right, we're
not your enemy!
We're looking for a place
where we can unwind.
If there's a village,
could you lead us there?
Sorry about this.
Base here. What's wrong?
We're currently about
200 meters from G Nest.
We haven't seen a
single Blue around here.
There are no Blue?
According to X-ray
camera investigation,
the hardness of the
outer walls is about 200.
And to make things worse...
...there's nothing like an entrance
anywhere along the outer walls.
It is expected that securing an infiltration
route will be extremely difficult.
Understood. Take it easy, and
find yourself a suitable place to rest.
Roger. We will do just that.
What do we do?
With the Armor Shrikes, it won't
even take half a day to reach the Nest.
It's not very fair
to the villagers,
but we'll make our
base here for a while.
That's fine. Seeing as how
there are people living here,
you know that there
is enough to eat!
In the worst case, if we're
short on combat supplies,
there won't be much trouble
turning back to the shuttle and all...
It's better than nothing at all.
Nothing at all, huh?
Yuji, doesn't it strike you
as being a little strange?
The scouting party says that
there are no Blue around the Nest...
Yeah, we haven't
encountered a single Blue yet.
And yet, how come there's that
gigantic Nest here in a place like this?
It's our job to
investigate that too.
It's been three months.
What in the world is
happening now on Earth?
What's that? The Blue on the
surface have started to migrate?
Look at this.
These are the latest images of the surface that
have been sent by our surveillance satellite.
It's thought that the Blue
were born to eliminate the
continually multiplying humankind.
The existence of many more Blue in urban areas
was also thought to make it more convenient
for them to fulfill their role.
However, suddenly, there are
more Blue existing elsewhere.
What is seen as unusual are those Blue that
are inhabiting those areas out in nature.
You can see that the Blue all
over South America are migrating,
heading to one spot.
South America... The
Guyanan highlands!?
Why are they now headed
toward the Guyanan highlands?
What exactly does it mean?
I am guessing that this could be a harbinger
of what other changes will occur on Earth.
- Harbinger of changes?
- What does that mean?
At this current stage, we
cannot be certain of anything.
Supposing that something has
happened, I don't think that we,
living here in space, have
any particular influence over it.
I'm going!
In any case, somebody has to
go down and verify this, right?
I will go and see what is happening
on Earth with my own eyes for you!
Yuji...
I will provide you with
the necessary supplies.
You should recruit volunteers
and put together a unit. However...
...afterward, no matter
what is occurring,
it will be no concern of ours.
If our communications
with you are lost,
we're cutting off all
contact with Earth.
That's fine. I wasn't planning on
coming back here in the first place.
After all, there's no room
on this station for a Sleeper.
Let's go, Marlene.
Right...
We will find for ourselves the
road down which we will live!
I never even tried
to imagine it...
Being here like this, it
seems crazy that up until now,
I've lived up there.
Marlene...
No matter what happens,
I am here with you, Yuji.
I was just thinking...
I wish this moment
could last forever.
Yuji...?
Are you okay?
If you're fetching
water, I'll go with you.
You show me where
the water is, okay?
H- hey...!
If only all people could
live like these children...
Marlene!
What's this?
Blasting operations complete.
Status?
No good. There's no
damage to the outer wall.
I see...
Looks like forcing our
way through is hopeless.
Shall we increase the charge
and try from a different direction?
No, there's no sense in
wasting the explosives.
Let's try thinking
of some other way.
- Roger.
- But when you talk about some other way...
That's the problem right there.
Yuji!
A giant road in the
middle of the forest?
The people in the
village said they saw it.
A great deal of Blue moved through
the forest and disappeared into the valley.
There's a valley ahead of here?
But this is quite a ways off
from the direction of the Nest.
About how long
ago are we talking?
According to what the children
said, about three months ago.
That coincides with the time
of the Blue mass migration
observed by the
surveillance satellite.
My, my, we're leaving already?
And here I thought we were going to be
able to live like humans for a little bit.
Now that you mention it,
Ted, you're a Sleeper that
woke up on the station, right?
Would you mind telling us...
...about the life you used
to lead in the past, Ted?
Hm? Sure...
I was raised in rural Texas,
see? On this huge sprawling ranch.
I spent long days there,
living my life driving cattle.
Thinking back now, I
lived pretty casually then.
If I could, I'd sure like
to go back to that time.
Whether we can go back or not...
...all depends on this.
An underground path?
Does this go
through to the Nest?
Yuji...
I'm sure that ahead of us, there must
be something that we want to know.
Infantry and vehicles 8
through 12 stay here on stand-by.
If after six hours, if nobody
returns, pull back to the village.
Let's go!
This is eerie!
Looks like this might continue all
the way down to the bottom of Hell.
All units, equip night scopes.
I- It's the Blue!!
Relax!!
Calm down, Ted! Look closely!!
Man, don't scare me like that!
Yuji, look at that.
Ew... What is all this?
That is nasty!
Is this...
...a Blue graveyard?
Graveyard...!? Is this
another "Planned Suicide?"
What do you mean by that?
The Blue were born in
order to eliminate mankind,
who were breeding
without bounds.
Supposing they were to accomplish
their goal, then instead of mankind,
the Blue themselves would
then be the ones breeding,
and to the Earth, they would be the
ones whose existence was unessential.
And so, it was necessary for
them to go extinct themselves.
They were already
programmed to do this.
I see. Which means...?
The "Planned Suicide"
over the Earth is near its end.
Is that unthinkable, Yuji?
Yuji?
The "Planned Suicide"...is over?
No... What is this!?
Ted, can you
feel it? Like this...
...incredibly strong...
some kind of power!
Huh? P-power, you say?
What's the matter, Yuji?
- I can feel it!
- Feel what?
I don't know... But I feel
it. I feel a strong power!
Sensing a large-scale tremor in
the northern area of South America.
Measuring M7.8
on the seismic scale.
The quake's center is in the
eastern Guyanan highlands!
Scout party, this is the military
station! Report your situation!
Oh, shit!
Marlene!
Marlene... Marlene!
Ted! Ted!?
Yeah, I'm okay.
Yuji, look!
What's that?
Let's go!
Let's go? H-hey!
Hold on, now! Yuji!
What!?
Yuji!
W- what is that!?
It's not over!
You intend to not
let us through!?
Are we that much of an
inconvenience to you!?

What do we do, Yuji?
Are we that much of an
inconvenience to you!?
Let's go, together...
This is where we part, Marlene.
Yuji?
Marlene, I want you
at least to stay alive.
In that case, more than
ever, let's stay together!
Come back with me. For
the sake of our unborn child.
So that I may live
together with you, Marlene,
and everyone else, I'm going!
