Aldnoah.Zero Part 2

Inaho despierta los poderes de Aldnoah después de que la sangre de Asseylum le otorgue el control sobre el Deucalion.

19 months after the events at Saazbaum's Landing Castle, a UFE raiding party finds themselves shot down by the Tharsis, piloted by Slaine himself. Slaine has become a Vers Knight with the power of Aldnoah under Saazbaum, and the Vers Empire has been slowly conquering North and South America under the new support of Princess Asseylum as they plan to expand their reach. On Earth, the crew of the Deucalion prepare to finish their R&R when they come under attack from a Martian Kataphract called the Frozen Elysium, capable of freezing all matter around it. The UFE Kataphracts find that they can't hit this new threat before getting frozen to death, when Inaho appears in his restored KG-6 Sleipnir, a training mech, using airburst grenades to create a small path through the freezing field and destroy the enemy. The episode flashes back to the moments after Asseylum and Inaho were shot in the Landing Castle. Slaine decided to spare Saazbaum and escape with him and Asseylum in the Tharsis, while Inko and Yuki tried to get a wounded Inaho back to base where he needed surgery. Things looked grim with Asseylum absent and the Deucalion still unpowered. However, the blood from Princess Asseylum that had splattered on his face was ingested and it was discovered that Inaho now has the power to activate Aldnoah Drives as well, and use it to reactivate the Deucalion. In the present, with repairs complete, the Deucalion launches into space. Meanwhile, the Princess Asseylum giving the war speeches to the Vers Empire turns out to be another Princess named Lemrina, disguising herself as Asseylum under Saazbaum's supervision. As the night ends, Slaine goes to visit the real Asseylum, being kept alive in a medical tank. (Source: Wikipedia)

Las fuerzas de UFE se preparan para el asalto a Marineros mientras Slaine y Lemrina resuelven sus conflictos internos antes de la batalla.

The UFE forces gather in Earth's orbit at Trident Base, built into an asteroid, as they prepare for a large-scale operation against another asteroid base called Marineros, which is owned by Vers. Meanwhile, Saazbaum rallies his own forces for a quick strike on Trident as they travel to Marineros Base. Slaine finds that Lemrina shut down the Tharsis' Aldnoah Drive, and tries to reason with her to get it running again. Eventually, Slaine gets her to restart the Tharsis. As Lemrina visits her still-unconscious sister and schemes to replace her position, the Martian forces begin their assault while the UFE dig in on nearby asteroids. Inaho makes use of his new cybernetic eye to accurately shoot down several enemies, but Slaine uses the power of his Tharsis to see the trajectories of the shells being fired at him, and dodges at the last second. The Martian forces soon pass by the base as Inaho and Slaine confirm that they fought each other. (Source: Wikipedia)

Las fuerzas del Imperio Vers se preparan para la batalla mientras Slaine es adoptado por Saazbaum.

Both UFE and Vers forces prepare for battle on their respective asteroid bases. Magbaredge confirms with Inaho that it wasn't Asseylum's blood alone that gave him the ability to activate Aldnoah Drives, but something that was transferred when he gave her CPR. Meanwhile, other Counts of the Vers Empire show open contempt at Slaine for being a Terran, but before they harm him, Saazbaum abruptly announces that he is adopting Slaine as his son and legal heir. Finally, Trident and Marineros bases are close enough that the two sides begin their attacks. Inaho shoots down several enemy spacecraft and eventually runs into Slaine again, confirming that he is somehow able to accurately predict the near future like himself. Saazbaum appears in his refurbished Dioscuria II, and mentions that his shield's weak spot is different from last time as he chases down Inaho. With Inaho's help, Inko manages to disable the Dioscuria II's shield just as a micrometeoroid shower hits it, disabling the Kataphract. Slaine then tells Saazbaum that the shower was actually his own work, using Tharsis' systems to accurately pinpoint where Saazbaum would be two minutes in the future so he could destroy him as revenge for shooting Asseylum. After a second micrometeoroid shower finishes off Saazbaum, Slaine becomes a Count of the Vers Empire while Inaho confirms from Slaine's speech that Asseylum is alive. (Source: Wikipedia)

Yuki y Marito se reúnen con la tripulación después de interceptar al Conde Mazuurek en Yemen.

Down on Earth, Yuki and Marito are part of a UFE squadron garrisoned in Yemen, when they are informed that the Deucalion will be transferred to their area, giving them a chance to reunite with the crew. Meanwhile, on the Moon, Slaine reaffirms his loyalty to Lemrina as Princess Asseylum's guardian. He then discusses the ramifications of his inheritance of Saazbaum's position with Harklight. Slaine realizes that the others Vers Knights will suspect that he had betrayed Saazbaum, so he decides he must do something that will earn their respect. Meanwhile, the faction of Vers Knights who oppose Slaine's promotion order Count Mazuurek to begin an offensive. Count Mazuurek has so far avoided fighting, seeking to preserve Earth's natural resources, but reluctantly deploys in his Kataphract which generates artificial gravity waves to defend itself. Yuki and Marito are sent to intercept, but cannot penetrate Mazuurek's defenses. Marito then realizes that Mazuurek's Kataphract is vulnerable to attacks from above, and lures him to an area where Inaho can fire at him from orbit. Mazuurek's Kataphract is disabled and Mazuurek himself is captured. The Deucalion finally lands and Yuki and Marito are reunited with the crew. However, they find out that Slaine has singlehandedly destroyed Trident Base. Slaine wins the respect of the Vers Knights and silences his detractors, while Inaho realizes he has no choice but to defeat Slaine. (Source: Wikipedia)

Inaho ayuda a Mazuurek a escapar mientras Marylcian reta a Slaine a un duelo.

On Earth, Count Mazuurek is imprisoned by the UFE while Yuki and Marito reunite with their comrades from the Deucalion. Inaho reveals to Doctor Yagarai that he customized his own cybernetic left eye, and Yagarai responds that it may lead to brain problems down the road. Later, Inaho interrogates Mazuurek, managing to find some common ground with him regarding Princess Asseylum. That night, Inaho and Rayet sneak Mazuurek out of the UFE base and into the desert, offering him a chance to get back home under the conditions that he find the real Asseylum and determine Slaine's real objective. Inko witnesses Inaho's act, but chooses not to report it. Meanwhile, at the Vers' Moon base, Count Marylcian initiates a private conversation with Lemrina (disguised as Asseylum) and states that she is caged bird. Marylcian then personally arrives at the station, unwilling to forgive Slaine for being a Terran, and formally challenges Slaine to a duel for the honor of being Asseylum's Royal Guard.

Deucalion destruye a Kataphract mientras Slaine derrota a Marylcian y Lemrina declara la independencia

On Earth, the UFE launches an attack on a Martian Knight whose Kataphract can fire powerful lasers, preventing UFE forces from being able to get close. While UFE forces distract the Vers Kataphract, Inaho begins directing artillery fire from the Deucalion main cannons. Because Deucalion uses traditional artillery shells, it can arc its shells over the curvature of the Earth, protecting it from reprisal attacks since lasers can only travel in a straight line. Eventually, the Deucalion manages to score a direct hit on the Vers Kataphract and destroy it. Inko then confronts Inaho about him freeing Mazuurek, and Inaho acknowledges what he did, and that he didn't want Inko to get involved. At the Moon base, Slaine and Count Marylcian begin their duel. Marylcian's Herschel uses numerous unmanned drones to attack Slaine, straining the Tharsis' abilities to the limit. However, Slaine manages to outsmart Marylcian by luring him into a tunnel, allowing him to destroy all of the Herschel's drones. The now vulnerable Marylcian is then surgically killed by Slaine, who seizes all of Marylcian's assets and awards Herschel to Harklight for his faithful service. Lemrina, still posing as Asseylum, makes an announcement to the rest of the Martian Knights, declaring that they form their own kingdom independent from Vers, and that she and Slaine will be married. Afterwards, she visits the still comatose Asseylum and considers shutting down her life support, but decides to spare her life. However, after Lemrina leaves, Asseylum begins to regain consciousness.

Slaine consolida el poder de los Caballeros Marcianos mientras el Deucalion enfrenta a tres caballeros enemigos.

Lemrina, disguised as Asseylum, continues her announcement to the Martian Knights, ordering them to unite under Slaine's banner. With Asseylum, and by extension her power to activate Aldnoah, under his control, Slaine effectively becomes the uncontested leader of the Martian Knights. Meanwhile, Asseylum regains consciousness, much to Slaine and Eddelrittuo's enjoyment. However, Slaine decides to keep news of Asseylum's recover secret from Lemrina, instead telling her that Asseylum's condition has worsened and that Lemrina cannot visit her anymore. Lemrina then reiterates her pledge of loyalty to Slaine, who feels uncomfortable having to lie to her. In addition, an amnesiac Asseylum recovers, she begins to recall memories about Inaho, much to Slaine's dismay. Finding his resolve, Slaine decides to continue with his plans. Back on Earth, the Deucalion is tasked with assaulting another Landing Castle. However, when the Deucalion crew begins to gain the upper hand, two more Martian Knights arrive as reinforcements. The Deucalion crew are then left in a situation they never had to consider before: being attacked by three Martian Knights simultaneously. Inaho realizes that this kind of organization could have only been possible under Slaine's direction. (Source: Wikipedia)

Inaho navega el Daedalus dañado mientras Mazuurek expone a la impostora Lemrina

Now facing three Martian Knights at once, the UFE forces are quickly surrounded and trapped. However, thanks to timely intervention from the Deucalion, Inaho and his squad manage to escape, but not without the Deucalion suffering severe damage that disables its navigation systems. Inaho then uses his cybernetic eye to help navigate the ship, but later begins to feel pain as a side effect of overusing his eye. The Deucalion then receives new orders from HQ ordering them to renew the attack, much to their displeasure. On the Moon, Count Mazuurek holds a personal audience with the disguised Lemrina, and deduces that she is an imposter based on her conflicting account of her experiences with Inaho on Earth. Now convinced Inaho is right, Mazuurek then sneaks onto Slaine's landing castle and returns Asseylum's lost pendant to Edelrittuo. Meanwhile, Slaine begins to feel stressed over having to both hide Asseylum's recovery from Lemrina as well as having to lie to Asseylum about what he has done. He confides in Edelrittuo that perhaps his predicament is punishment for losing faith that Asseylum would wake up. Lemrina eventually begins to feel distressed at how Slaine is becoming more distant from her, and discovers that Asseylum is missing from her recovery tank. At the same time, Edelrittuo gives the pendant back to Asseylum, which triggers the full recovery of her memories. (Source: Wikipedia)

Inaho se enfrenta a los Caballeros Marcianos utilizando contramedidas de teletransportación cuántica mientras Asseylum enfrenta un arresto político.

With the Deucalion still undergoing repairs, Inaho and his squad are forced to assault the Martian Knights again without its support. Knowing the abilities of the three knights' Kataphracts, Inaho devises special strategies to combat them, and two of the knights are quickly defeated. The third knight proves to be a tougher challenge, as his Kataphract has the ability to multiply itself. Inaho figures out that the Kataphract multiplies itself using quantum teleportation, and that the only way to defeat it is to destroy every single one of its copies simultaneously. In order to achieve this, Inaho uses his eye to connect to every UFE Kataphract on the battlefield and manually control their targeting systems. The plan is successful, and all Martian Katapracts are destroyed. However, Inaho again begins to suffer pain as a side effect of overusing his eye. Meanwhile, the freshly repaired Deucalion receives new orders to head for space for a new mission. On the Moon, Lemrina finds and confronts a fully recovered Asseylum, and tells her of what Slaine has been doing while she was unconscious. Shocked, Asseylum confronts Slaine and attempts to arrest him, though Slaine explains that he is no longer a citizen of Vers and therefore no longer under her authority. He has both Asseylum and Lemrina put under house arrest when he receives news that Count Klancain, Cruhteo's son, has arrived from Vers. (Source: Wikipedia)

Slaine intenta reclutar a Klancain mientras las fuerzas de la UFE lanzan un asalto en dos fases contra la Base Lunar para eliminar a la princesa Asseylum.

Slaine greets Klancain and tries to subtly convince him to join his side. However, Klancain is staunchly loyal to the Emperor and remains skeptical of Slaine's motives. Meanwhile, the UFE decides to assault the Moon Base with the aim of eliminating Princess Asseylum. It is a two-part operation, with the Deucalion assaulting Slaine's landing castle to draw enemy forces away while a second UFE force assaults the Moon Base itself. Inaho correctly predicts that the UFE will also send in covert infiltrators to assassinate Asseylum, and infiltrates the base on foot. Inside, the UFE infiltrators begin to clash with the base guards, and Asseylum, Lemrina, and Edelrittuo are separated from their guard detail. Lemrina decides to stay behind, leaving Asseylum and Edelrittuo to try and evacuate to the landing bay themselves. Meanwhile, Inaho encounters Slaine and accuses him of exploiting Asseylum like he feared, and they both have a brief gunfight before Inaho is able to escape. He finally manages to find Asseylum, but passes out from his wounds. Inaho's artificial eye then takes control of his consciousness, and reveals to Asseylum that Inaho considered Asseylum a part of himself, and prioritized her safety above his own. Touched, Asseylum instructs the eye to tell Inaho that he is a part of her as well, and also asks for an unmentioned favor. Inaho's eye then instructs Asseylum to head to a designated airlock where Inko will extract her, telling her that help will soon arrive to evacuate Inaho. Asseylum and Edelrittuo reach the designated airlock, but are cornered by a UFE commando. The commando is then shot and killed by Klancain, who introduces himself to Asseylum. (Source: Wikipedia)

Asseylum transmite su plan de paz mientras Slaine ordena ataques simultáneos de los Orbital Knight contra las fuerzas de la UFE.

After rescuing Asseylum, Klancain evacuates her to his ship against Slaine's wishes. Slaine tries to convince Asseylum to return, but she refuses. With most of the Orbital Knights now loyal to Slaine, Edelrittuo tells Asseylum that she can trust Mazuurek, who agrees to shelter them in his landing castle to repay his debt to Inaho. Determined to stop the war, Asseylum makes contact with her grandfather. Unfortunately, the Emperor's physical and mental condition have deteriorated significantly, making him incapable of ruling. Meanwhile, Inaho regains consciousness and escapes the Moon Base with Inko's assistance. The UFE then temporarily withdraws from the battle to regroup, intending to take the Moon Base in one final attack. Slaine is aware of the UFE attack, and in response, not only sends forces to intercept them, but orders every Orbital Knight on Earth to simultaneously attack as well in order to ensure the complete destruction of the UFE. However, Slaine's orders are interrupted when Asseylum broadcasts a message to both the UFE and the Orbital Knights, proclaiming her intentions to foster peace between Earth and Vers with her official ascension of the throne as Empress of Vers. She also announces that she will marry Klancain. (Source: Wikipedia)

Slaine se rinde tras la destrucción de Harklight e Inaho lo salva, lo que lleva a un tratado de paz.

After Asseylum gives her speech, the Orbital Knights, now in a state of confusion, decide to call off their full-scale attack until they can figure out what is going on. Realizing that the battle is lost, Slaine orders the Moon Base to be evacuated and to surrender to the UFE. Lemrina is put onto a transport ship with the rest of the noncombatants, while Harklight and the rest of Slaine's forces defy Slaine's orders and continue to battle the UFE. Eventually, they are all completely destroyed in one final, doomed charge against the Deucalion. Seeing that his forces are still battling and that he has nothing to lose at this point, Slaine boards the Tharsis and engages Inaho in single combat. Both pilots manage to heavily damage their opponents, with Inaho narrowly achieving victory. The Tharsis begins to fall into Earth's atmosphere, but Inaho saves Slaine's life by grabbing the Tharsis and stabilizing its descent. Some time later, a formal peace agreement has been signed between Earth and Vers, including a trade agreement where Vers would provide Earth with Aldnoah technology in return for resources. Slaine is officially blamed for the assassination attempt against Asseylum and is reported as having been killed. In reality, Slaine is being held in a secret prison facility. He asks Inaho why he spared his life, with Inaho revealing he was following Asseylum's wishes, as the favor she asked of him was to "save Slaine." Realizing Asseylum still cares for him. The series ends with Asseylum, Inaho, and Slaine smiling as they look forward to the future. (Source: Wikipedia)

A este lado del paraíso

Los hermosos y los malditos

Un precio pagado por los valientes

La paga de los soldados

La rueda que sigue girando

La rosa y el anillo

De aquí para allá

La luz del amanecer

El bufón de la fortuna

Emergiendo del pasado

Los invictos

Heredando las estrellas
