Natsume learns the truth and sees her relationship with Kaburagi in a whole new light. The cyborgs need to escape the the correctional facility. How long can the bugs escape the system's clutches?

Here we go.

Three.

Two.

One.

Boss, this doesn't make sense.

This is nothing like a nest.

And that man earlier...

Natsume...

This world, the Gadoll, even my body...

They're all manufactured.

"Seldurum" "Spoonwormer" "Burrn"



Listen, Natsume.

What you believe is the world

is a world we cyborgs created.

Gadoll are produced here

and programmed to attack Deca-dence.

To us, the fight with the Gadoll

is nothing but a game to...

Natsume!

Hey!

Hey, Natsume!

Natsume! Come on. Wake up!

Natsume.

What happened?!

I don't know!



Whatever it was, it's bad!

This is bad!

What do we do?

This is a huge emergency!

Dammit! Why the hell is the GGS active?

A-A-At this rate, we'll lose
every Gadoll in Deca-dence!

What do we do? What do we do? What do we...

Can it! I've told you
not to lose your cool!

What do we do?

No way...

Even the Gadoll factory?!

What do we do?!

Shit!

Those damn bugs!

What's the holdup?

Data transfer completed!

Good. Let's log out.

What about him?

Leave him. He's dying.

What?

That hurt, you piece of shit!

Let's go.

That left damned marks.

The hell was that?

What's going on?

They're disintegrating?

What did this?

Natsume, you did it, didn't you?

They're dying off on their own!

Yeah...

What's going on?

It's gotta be a bug.

Come on! For real, what's the deal?

It's completely bugged!

"Service Disruption Announcement"
"(Error Code 0440)"

"Service Disruption Announcement"
"(Error Code 0440)"
Due to error code 0440,
service will be temporarily halted.

Due to error code 0440,
service will be temporarily halted.

Please wait until it is restored.

Oh come on. That's no fun.

Well this sucks.

Commander, what should we do?

Should we go on standby for now?

Who knows. Ask the system.

Kabu,

what do you plan to do?

No... No!

Your wounds...

So it wasn't a dream.

We don't dream... unlike you humans.

We have to tell the others ASAP.

You can't.

The truth of the world
is off limits to you humans.

Humans who learn the truth...
The world does not permit such bugs.

What do you mean?

You're the only exception.

B-But...

Do you think I'm lying?

Remember your father.

Wh-What is this?!

Muro, it's exactly as you said.

Yeah. There's something
strange about our world.

Some hidden secret...

Stay strong!

You're going back home, okay?

Natsume, Daddy's gonna be back soon, okay?

Wait for me.

He got too close to the truth.

So he was deemed a bug and killed.

So then,

you knew, didn't you, Boss?

About the Gadoll,

about the world...

...about my father.

That means you've been
deceiving me the whole time.

Natsume,

I...

What I wanted wasn't to change the world.

What I wanted was to have confidence.

I thought, if I worked hard to
get stronger, I might change.

Now I feel stupid.

If this is the truth,
I would've rather stayed ignorant.

Nothing needed to change.

I never should've

trusted you.

I'm sorry.

Pipe.

I'm sorry.

"Boss, don't worry about Pipe. I promise I'll take great care of him! So l̶e̶t̶
̶m̶e̶ ̶k̶n̶o̶w̶ ̶a̶s̶ ̶s̶o̶o̶n̶ ̶a̶s̶ y̶o̶u̶ ̶g̶e̶t̶ ̶b̶a̶c̶k̶!̶ Natsume"

"I promise I'll take great care of him! So l̶e̶t̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶k̶n̶o̶w̶
̶a̶s̶ ̶s̶o̶o̶n̶ ̶a̶s̶ y̶o̶u̶ ̶g̶e̶t̶ ̶b̶a̶c̶k̶!̶ Natsume"

"To Boss"

Cheers!

Drink up!

Let's get drunk today!

The damn Gadoll all
just frickin' disappeared!

Did they really all die?

You worry too much.

According to the Gears,
scouting doesn't even turn any up.

We might be able to live outside!

We can go where we
want and do what we want!

We're free!

To freedom and peace!

All right, another round!

Natsume?

What are you doing over here?

I'm so glad you're okay. Welcome back.

Come on! Let's go!

What's wrong?

Natsume...

What am I doing?

What was all my effort even for?

"Jill"

"Jill"
Kaburagi, just how much time
do you plan to spend there?

Come back ASAP!

The game police?

Yes, and sooner than expected.

It seems the system handed down
another elimination order.

Just hurry it up!

Hmm. She is indeed a bug.

The ID search doesn't work.

And we can't use the Gears' visual data.

So then how...

True.

Let's go with that plan.

Natsume.

Kurenai.

Tell me what's wrong.

This isn't like you.

What... should I believe?

I thought I'd see things,

and change,

and live free, you know?

But I don't want to know anything anymore.

Or do anything.

I don't know anymore... what I want to do.

I'm really glad you came back unhurt.

And glad to have you as a comrade.

Maybe Fei was right
and there was no need to change.

Only you know what you've seen,
heard, and felt.

Someone else's opinion is irrelevant.

It belongs to you.

Value it.

It belongs to me...

Good thing I came prepared.

Here.

Th-Thank you.

I appreciate it.

Finally!

Sorry. What's the situation?

There's no time to waste. Let's go!

We're gettin' outta here!

Hurry it up, boys!

Hey! Get back up!

Drag your feet and we'll leave you!

Oh no!

How stupid can you be?!

Hurry up!

What?!

It's slippery!

Shit!

Get back up!

Drag your feet and we'll leave you!

Hurry it up, boys.

We're blowing this joint!

Hurry!

What?!

So long, crap factory!

...Farewell.
...We'll visit soon!

Idiot! We ain't ever coming back here!

Still, thanks for everything! Hurray!

Hurray! Hurray!

What I've seen, heard, and felt...

I start with the Kaburagi team today.

Pleased to meet you.

This is battle.

Change your mind about becoming a soldier?

Please teach me how to fight!

You won't change my mind.

Here! My meager life savings!

What made you decide
to teach me how to fight?

Well... I suddenly wanted to see
how a bug would live in this world.

I-It's amazing, Boss!

This thing isn't your weakness.

It's your weapon.

Wh-What is this thing?

I told you, didn't I?

You aren't ready yet.

Boss?!

I swore to myself...

...that I'd push myself
to the very edge of my limits!

Why didn't you fill up the oxyone?!

There was a lot going on. I forgot.

We'll do it fast!

Fine.

Here. You have some, too.

No, I don't...

Drink it.

It's the last oxyone liquor Sark made.

That tastes awful.

So bad it makes some bots blind!

What are you going to do next?

The Gadoll factory will be
rebuilt in a few years.

I'll put an end to Deca-dence first.

So you plant to pick a serious fight
with the system, then.

You're barreling straight
toward being scrapped.

I won't accompany you.

I was just looking for new toys.

If it seems fun, I'm in.

How could it be fun?

"Registered Bug Gear" "Bug Record" "Kaburagi"
Regardless, we've been fully designated as bugs.

"Registered Bug Gear" "Bug Record" "Jill"

I have to log in! Please, Jill!

What? We can't do it here.

We have to reach the hideout.

Dammit!

I can't drink any more!

I'm not done yet.

This is the best!

What's this?

"Kaburagi"

Boss!

"I am deeply sorry I couldn't
be honest with you all this time."

At the same time, I regret
hurting you by telling you the truth.

I lived my life deceiving you humans.

That was part of the rules of the world.

I just turned a blind eye to the fact that
upholding the rules brought suffering to others.

It was normal.

When I first met you,

I had no attachment to life.

"Please Refill Oxyone"
"Time until scrapping: 175 years"
I had no attachment to life.

"Please Refill Oxyone"
"Time until scrapping: 175 years"
I intended to die.

Maybe I was trying to find some
small peace by abandoning life.

"Operational Limit Near"
Maybe I was trying to find some
small peace by abandoning life.

But, after seeing the way you
lived your life, I was captivated by it.

I decided to try pushing
myself to my limits.

I've decided to work to
destroy the rules of this world.

I believe that's at least
what I can do to atone.

I want you to live
your life as you see fit.

"You'll be all right. Kaburagi"

"You'll be all right.
Kaburagi"
You'll be all right.

You'll be all right.

What?

What the hell?!

Old Deca-dence parts, huh?

...This is nice.
...Isn't this awesome?

We'll definitely be safe here.

What're you two doing?

There ain't even any Gadoll. Why log in?

Jill, can't you go faster?!

This is the problem with you guys.

Please be safe!

Hey, Boss! You're here, aren't you?

Boss, I'm coming in!

Ow.

Boss! A-A-Are you okay?

Boss, I read your letter.

What was that about?

I got what you wanted to tell me, but...

Are you planning to leave again?

Yeah.

I'm about to...

How can you be so selfish?!

What?

You just write what you
want to say and run?!

And where do you get off with,
"You'll be all right"?!

I'm not right at all!

I won't be all right...

I'm sorry.

It was a shock, that I had been
deceived for so long.

But the time I spent with you,

the fights we fought,

the things we did weren't lies.

I decide for myself, right?

And so

I choose to trust you, the person I know.

Natsume.

Boss, if you're gonna fight these "rules,"

you'll have my help.

I see.

Let's...

B-Boss!

So you came here, just as I predicted.

You won't escape either.

The world must be rid of bugs.

Jill, can't you do something?

No, I can't.

It's impossible to log in to your avatar.

Dammit!

I have to help or she'll...

What was that noise?

Hey, look...

What is that?

How?

So it's not over.

They sure don't disappoint!
