[Raws-4U] Planetes - 16 (BD 2ch+5.1ch).ass (DOWNLOAD SUBTITLES)

Crap!

Tanabe! Can you see me?! If you can see me, answer me!

Please respond! Somebody!

Is anybody out there?!

Anybody! Come in!

I'm here! I'm right over here!

Please, find me!

Somebody!

Ignition

Fee, it was an accident. Don't blame yourself.

The sun is at the peak of its 11-year cycle this year.

Anyway, radio reception was bad to begin with.

No one could have predicted that solar flare.

And they couldn't have done anything about it even if they had.

As ship's captain, I'm responsible for losing track of my crew during EVA.

I should've anticipated a comm blackout based on...

...the plasma flow information in the space weather report.

I should've called off both their jobs, not just Tanabe...

He wasn't exposed for all that long.

He might not have been exposed to lethal amounts of radiation.

How is he?! Is he going to be all right?!

They said that nothing's wrong with me.

The doctor was shocked, too! I didn't catch much radiation at all.

Looks like I was floating between the Van Allen belts when the radiation was at its peak.

Besides, we were in the Earth's shadow.

He said that most people would've had their nervous systems fried by high-speed particles!

They complimented me on my dumb luck!

You've got some nerve to be laughing!

This whole mess happened because you missed your rendezvous with the target debris...

...and went chasing after it like an idiot, right?!

And you let go of your lifeline, too!

Yesh, ma'ab! I'b zorry!

You ignore my orders like that again,

...and I'm gonna leave you out there to join the debris, got it?!

For one thing, you...

Thank goodness...

I'm so relieved...

I thought you were going to die...

Yeah, sorry for making you worry like that...

If that's the case, there will be a vice president's position opening up.

The top candidate is probably you-know-who.

We certainly can't complain about the Second Division's record.

So, we're finally looking at Vice President Dolf," eh?

You must be joking! Second Division owes its record to the fact that he ignores the rules.

Well, he's certainly expanded our business by breaking with tradition.

I'll give him that. Still, we can't build good relations with INTO, not with his methods.

Meaning?

I'll talk to the company president personally. Your people won't have any objections, I take it?

Banks are always on the side of harmony and order.

Y'know, this goes beyond luck.

Huh?

Space loves me! I'm a man who won't die before he completes his life's ambition!

Sure, sure...

Go on, ask me! Ask me what my life's ambition is.

To own a spaceship, right? You've told us that a million times.

Look here, you... When a man's talking about his dreams, you just sit back and listen quietly.

Hoshino-san.

Hoshino Hachirota-san.

That's me. Are my discharge papers ready?

I'm sorry, but we need to run one more test.

Wha...?

Would you mind going to the Sensory Deprivation Chamber?

Sure...

Damn it, what's all this about?

"Sensory Deprivation Chamber" sounds a bit ominous, but there's nothing to be afraid of.

It's simply an empty room. With one difference.

We're ready to begin.

All right, here goes.

Yeah, fine.

This whole thing is stupid. What am I, a kid?

As if an astronaut would be scared of something like this...

Wow, this takes me back! I did this during training!

I couldn't take it for more than 15 minutes at first.

When I heard that you have to stay in for 6 hours to get your EVA license,

...I nearly passed out.

Heart rate climbing.

But it's only been two minutes.

Perspiration increasing. Blood pressure climbing, too.

I thought as much.

When I read the incident report, I thought this might be the case.

It's a condition that rarely turns up in EVA workers.

He was floating alone in space, cut off from all communication, right?

The terror he felt then has been burned into his body.

Spatial Loss Disorder.

Increase in blood pressure, rapid breathing, panic, disorientation...

There are sometimes even intense visual and auditory hallucinations.

If left untreated, it's a fatal blow to an astronaut's career.

That guy is full of crap! What a quack!

It was right after work, so I was tired that day! I hadn't eaten anything, either!

They'll slap a name on anything and call it a disease!

Hachimaki, you're spitting your food...

Anyway, I'm ready for 'em this time!

I'll stay in that room until I'm nearly dead from starvation!

Just you watch, you quack!

Right! I'll be back later.

Do you think Senpai's gonna be okay?

Apparently, it's a psychological problem. Whether or not he recovers is up to him.

Well, with his spirit, I think he'll be fine. He's an optimist.

I guess you're right. He's not that fragile a person.

No, Hachimaki is an EVA specialist.

If this turns out to be Spatial Loss Disorder, his license will be revoked.

Revoked?!

He'll never be able to go out into space again.

He has to be terrified of that possibility.

What the...?

M-My ears!

The sound... It's inside... my head!

T-The wall! Where's the wall?!

Son of a...

Get Sea of Tranquility General Hospital on the phone!

Right away!

I knew it... Spatial Loss Disorder.

So, is Hoshino's rehabilitation coming along smoothly?

He's receiving medication and mental training on the moon, but...

I'm not optimistic about his chances.

After all, it's all in his head.

Yes.

Are you worried about him?

I'm just... We're colleagues.

How did it go, Lavie-chan?

The other departments should be able to juggle their schedules to cover for us.

Should we go ahead and send Fee-san and Yu-chan to the moon, then?

I suppose so.

We can't take a break like everyone else, though.

Yuri-san, you're going to the moon, right?

Right.

Hachimaki's reinstatement test is this weekend.

Sorry to trouble you, but could you give this to Hachimaki?

It's a care package. We all pitched in.

He probably doesn't want to see anybody, but could you give this to him for us?

Thank you.

He is, huh? I had heard about it from Hakim, but this sounds bad.

Tanabe's staying with him now.

Spatial Loss Disorder is a psychological sickness. He might have trouble getting over it.

I know. Depending on the test results, he might be sent back to Earth.

Hachi won't be happy about it, but there's no other way.

I'm no doctor, but I know something that might do the trick.

We'll give it a shot.

If he's a real astronaut, it should work better than any stupid rehabilitation.

But if it doesn't, I won't have any other choice.

I'll give him his dismissal papers myself.

I'll have him...

I'll have Hachimaki go back down to Earth.

I ran into the ninjas before I came here.

They say they have jobs now.

At that test site on the dark side of the moon.

You know, where they're building the Von Braun's engine.

Yeah...

Hoshino Hachirota-san of room 204, preparations for your testing are now complete.

Please report to the Sensory Deprivation Chamber.

Hoshino Hachirota-san of room 2004...

Senpai...

I've been in rehab for two weeks. I'll be fine this time.

Yeah... I'll be okay.

Hachimaki? Is it time for your test?

Oh... Uh... Yeah.

See you later. The doctor's waiting.

Sorry, Nono-chan. We can talk after the test is over.

Sure. Tests are important.

Let's begin.

Yeah!

I've taken my medicine.

I've been through rehab.

I'm rested up, too.

I can't possibly fail a simple test like this.

The sea? Where am I?

That's me!

Then, this is...

What is this?

What is all this?!

Oh, right... I'm a...

Now I remember...

I'm an astronaut. A debris hauler.

Who's there?!

You felt it, didn't you? While you were drifting in that radiation storm.

Say what?

"I might die out here."

But that thought actually came as a relief.

What're you talking about?

If a man puts his mind to it, he can get married or even buy a spaceship!

Hey, is that him? The idiot who says he's gonna buy his own ship?

Did you buy your spaceship yet, mister?

I thought you said you were gonna work hard until you had your own spaceship!

Isn't getting a spaceship your dream, Senpai?

You know, don't you?

You know a lowly junk jockey like you will never get his own spaceship.

Don't tell me what I can't do! I'll get one, no matter what!

I understand... It's all clear now.

A lowly debris collector could work for decades and still not be able to buy a real spaceship.

Is me buying a spaceship that funny?

Damn it, I haven't even gotten my spaceship yet...

The reason you kept spouting that crap was because...

...you wanted to stay in your little dream world.

Right?

Screw you! I still haven't...

Having dreams that are too big will ruin a man.

Even you have to realize that. Even you.

That's right. You've seen it.

You've seen how it always ends.

You've heard the expression "know your limitations," haven't you?

They're finally letting me carry people now.

Let it go. Any more of this, and you'll make us think that you have an inferiority complex.

Sure, you talk the talk, but you settled down and got complacent the first chance you got!

You can't fight your way though, so now you're finally starting to look for an excuse.

An excuse?!

Me?

No way!

It's true.

This sickness of yours is exactly what you wanted.

Me?

Families? Why are you showing me this?

I'll leave them love!

Tanabe?

Living alone and dying alone...

Alone...

How could anyone be satisfied with that?

It's stupid.

She's cute, isn't she?

It's not so bad.

No, it doesn't sound so bad.

Go down to Earth, get married, grow old...

Shut up!

You wanted the right to look up at the lights in the night sky and say,

..."If it wasn't for that sickness, I'd still be up there right now."

"I didn't give up or anything. It's not my fault."

"It was because of that accident."

"If it wasn't for that accident, I know I'd..."

Give me a straight answer!

Is it just me, or does he eat more than Dad?

It's for the best.

Like hell! Shut the hell up!

Admit it. Accept reality. Make it easy for yourself.

Apologize for lying to yourself.

Shut up! Shut up!

Space might not love you, but it will forgive you.

Shut the hell up!

Senpai!

Get a medical team in here!

A stretcher! Go get a stretcher!

You sure get depressed easily, you know that?

And after all those speeches you've given to me...

Still, you're able to stay in there longer now, right?

The rehab must be working. You were in there a whole 20 minutes today.

I got a message from Fee-san and Yuri-san.

They're in Tranquility City right now, so they should be here pretty soon.

Senpai... Maybe it would be better if you went back to Earth.

You could breathe fresh air and tackle this nice and slowly.

Let me handle the Fishbone while you're away.

I'm pretty good at the job now.

It's okay, space isn't going anywhere.

There's always gonna be lots of debris that will need to be brought in.

Senpai?

Senpai!

That's right, Hoshino Hachirota.

He's been checked in here since last month.

Tanabe!

Yuri-san!

Good timing. We were just...

It's Senpai!

He's missing!

This is a page for Hoshino-san of room 204.

Hoshino Hachirota-san.

Hoshino Hachirota-san of room 204, please come to the reception desk at once.

Nono-chan! Have you seen Hachimaki?

No, sorry. Is something wrong?

He's missing!

He hasn't gone through the gate, so I think he's still in the hospital.

What is it? Do you know where he is?

Maybe... Maybe he's over there.

You gotta be kidding me! I'll never get better on Earth!

Senpai...

Damn it...

I wanna stay in space...

No way am I gonna let everything I've worked for go down the tubes...

I won't!

Senpai, stop it!

Please!

I'll never go into space again...

This is suicide. Or is this some kind of special training?

Screw you!

I seem to recall an astronaut who died out here on the surface of the moon.

Well, maybe that's better than living with a lifetime of regret.

Still, you aren't in such a hurry to die...

...that you can't put up with a little meddling from your teammates, are you?

It took a lot of doing to get these visitor's permits.

Gigalt-san said this might be just what the doctor ordered.

He said that?

Glad you could make it, Hoshino.

Hakim?

Thanks. I guess we're making a lot of trouble for you.

Don't mention it. We're both students of the Gigalt School.

Feast your eyes on this, Hachi.

A little something to take with you to the afterlife.

The tandem mirror nuclear fusion engine.

The most powerful engine ever built.

It uses the deuterium-helium 3 fusion reaction to generate thrust.

High-speed, charged particles are generated inside the fusion chamber at 500 million degrees Celsius.

They are controlled by means of magnetic fields,

...and released along with propellant from its nozzle in back.

It has a specific impulse of 600,000 seconds.

That's about 10,000 times greater than our own ship's.

This is the main engine that will be mounted in the Jupiter explorer, the Von Braun.

If we can use this to develop the Jovian system, it will make a great fuel supply center.

Before too long, astronauts are going to have their hands full.

The solar system is going to change.

At times like this, the world needs fools.

It needs people like you.

You seem relaxed today.

Let me ask you something. What have you decided?

Nah, I'm not really any different from before.

No, I take that back. Maybe I have changed a little.

Something occurred to me.

Maybe the engineers who built that engine also had to fight things like you.

There in the darkness, blind, groping along and trying to find their way,

...I bet they all went through that same experience.

Even Tsiolkovsky. And Goddard. And Oberth. And Von Braun.

But once I swore to myself that I'd fight you my whole life,

...I knew I'd see the light eventually.

I'll go for now. But don't let your guard down, Hachimaki.

I might come back when you least expect me.

Test cleared.

Senpai!

Senpai!

You do that.

I'll be ready for you.

His Reasons

Next Time

Okay, you can come out now.

Hey! How have you been, dumb son o' mine?

A fool in that position... will cause us trouble.

Talk about a self-centered boss...

But he doesn't know the meaning of the word harmony.

And whose fault is that?

You said it to me once, remember?

Because I'm a man of exceptional talent who is incapable of loving anything but spaceships.

Keep your comments to yourself, you sleazy old geezer!
