Fafner: The Beyond S1:E4

Azure Operation

Using the Fifth Operation Azure, they aim to bring back their stolen comrades. Kazuki Makabe and the other Tatsumiyajima pilots board the humanoid weapon, Fafner, to engage in a fierce fight with the Festum. "Someone will be sacrificed in order for someone else to live. Let's abandon such world and make a new one." "Return to the place where you belong."

Child of Paradise

In a dream, Soushi meets two children who look exactly like Orihime. They tell Soushi that the Mir's child is looking for him. Suddenly, a man stands behind him. When he wakes up from his dream, he sees the usual peaceful island and the blue sea that continues forever. Loving parents, a cheeky but cute little sister, and a carefree close friend. It is a satisfying daily life, but Soushi is curious about the outside world.

Instrument of Destiny

Soushi refuses to listen to the man from the outside world who killed his dear little sister and also caused the destruction of the island where he lived. Kazuki puts him to sleep and entrusts the rest to Miwa and the others. Sometime later, Soushi wakes up and takes a rebellious stand against the people of the island――especially Kazuki. Fumihiko and his collagues try to convince Soushi that this world is the reality...

Pupil

South America, Independent Human Army Bermuda Base. Under the glowing red moon, Benon's mothership, Olympus, has anchored in a military port that has been attacked and destroyed. Inside the ship sits a blonde, blue-eyed young man wearing a military uniform on a throne. Beside him stand Maris Excelsior and Marespero, who created a new body. The young man declares that he will move his fleet and make an all-out attack on Wadatsumijima, but Maris wants to pursuade Soushi before destroying the island...

By Your Side

Wadatsumijima's movements are put to a stop by Marespero. Alvis considers escape routes, but the simulation results aren't in their favor. They have come to a conclusion that the Mir, Altair, is the only hope to counter the enemies from space. Soushi is given the opportunity to board Mark Nicht again in order to locate Tatsumiyajima... The teachings of the pilots, Chizuru's achievements, Miwa's determination, the history of peace and suffering of the Tatsumiyajima's citizens. When he learns, absorbs, and feels them, a new awareness will emerge from within Soushi.

People who won't return

Maris counteracts Ashoka's defense from the bottom of the ship and secures an invasion route to the CDC. Soushi attacks Maris. The desire to settle the score with his old close friend and Maris' ability to compromise the island's defenses drives him. On the other side of the island, Fumihiko, whose life was saved by Chizuru, stares into the distance with a saddened look...

Message Passed On

The island, which suffered many casualties due to fierce battles, is filled with heavy air. Many of the belongings, that has drifted away, are recovered, and the funeral home is lined with portraits of several fallen people. They were all family members, lovers, and friends.

Second Plan L

The Second Plan L is put into action. The first Plan L was a demonstrative battle that used the L-Boat as a decoy to buy the island time before it would be discovered by the Festum, the second Plan L is exactly the opposite where the island is used as a decoy to buy time for the L-Boat, which is manned by a small number of personnel, to find Tatsumiyajima.

Storm, Come and Go

The technique Marespero uses to track Wadatsumijima is a clever one that uses human emotions and blind spots. With the truth revealed by Miwa and Soushi, Alvis uses the mechanism and devises the Sixth Operation Azure aiming at Tatsumijima while deceiving the eyes of Marespero and others.

Heroes, Two Heroes

The Fafner unit, exposed to the fierce attack of Mark Raison, doesn't even get a chance to the counterattack, and the battle reaches a stalemate. Kazuki gives priority to Miwa's escort over the destruction of Raison and dives into the sea, but standing before him is Legato who is obsessed with copying the power of Alles.

Beyond the Azure

The blessing that Miwa chooses pours into the world. The Festum rise in groups to heaven and cover the red moon. Everyone who witnesses the miracle stops moving simultaneously and are lost for words of admiration. The blessing that Miwa chooses pours into the world.
