[Coalgirls]_Strike_Witches_01_(_Blu-Ray)_[AF4B942E].ass (DOWNLOAD SUBTITLES)
The year 1939.
It was then that they appeared without warning before humanity.
We named them "Neuroi".
No one knows where the Neuroi are from, or what they came for.
But it is a fact that their attacks drove people from the towns and countries they called home.
Humanity invented a new anti-Neuroi weapon, and took up arms against them.
The Striker Unit.
It augments magical power, the only means of combating the Neuroi.
It is a new type of magic broom that makes flight possible through this power.
In order to equip these and fight,
Magic-using Witches were gathered from all countries of the world.
An elite task force was organized to fight the Neuroi, The 501st Joint Fighter Wing.
People called these young women: The Strike Witches!
Target sighted!
15,000 to the upper-right.
In the clouds.
Got it.
All units to the enemy Neuroi.
Formation Bravo, standby.
Commence attack!
Finish it off.
Copy.
Perrine, follow me.
Right!
Episode 1
Magical Girl
It is now the end of the school day.
Any students still on campus should go home at this time.
Fuso Empire, Yokosuka Fourth Girls' Junior High School
Yoshika-chan, it's too dangerous!
Do you want me to call the teacher?
I'm okay!
I can do this...
Yoshika-chan, that's enough!
Come back!
J-Just a little further!
I'll rescue it for sure!
Yoshika-chan...
Hey, you're safe now.
Yoshika-chan!
Yoshika-chan!
Thank goodness.
Get me down!
Ah, I'll call the teacher...
You got scolded, huh?
Well, I wanted to save the kitty!
At least you have the motivation of a grownup.
Well, that is what's good about you, though.
Grandpa!
Oh!
Michiko!
That's amazing...
And then...
Wow, what a big ship.
I wonder if that's the battleship that arrived.
Battleship?
Yeah.
A ship for war...
I don't like that...
Is it your father?
Yeah.
My dad left when I was six years old.
You're leaving, dad?
You said you'd come to the school entrance ceremony tomorrow.
I'm sorry, Yoshika.
I've got important work to do.
If it succeeds, we can defeat the Neuroi.
When it's finished, I'll be with you all the time.
Really?! You'll be with me forever?!
Yeah, I promise.
Yoshika...
You have a great power, just like your mom and grandma.
You must become a great person and protect everyone with that power.
Okay! I promise!
That was the last I ever saw of my dad.
What came back three years later was a bag of personal effects...
and a notice of death...
They wouldn't even say where or why he died, because it was classified military information.
But what I do know is that if it weren't for the war,
my dad would still be alive.
Is that the girl?
Yeah.
That's Yoshika Miyafuji.
She looks like just an ordinary student.
Academic performance is average.
Athletics, also average.
Special skill... cooking, huh.
Could she really be the leading candidate?
What should we do?
Major Sakamoto.
Let's see...
Micchan!
Hijikata!
Right!
Ow...
Michiko!
Michiko!
Micchan!
Micchan!
Y-Yoshika-cha...
Don't try to speak!
That's...
A healing spell.
A very powerful one, at that.
But, she's unable to control it.
M-My power...
Calm down, Miyafuji!
Concentrate.
Stay focused!
Relax your shoulders,
And control the magic.
Control the magic...
All-Illness Miyafuji Clinic
Micchan!
She'll be all right.
Mom...
The wound is closed, and there shouldn't be any scarring.
Thank goodness...
I see you still haven't learned to use your power.
Letting your feelings get ahead of you.
I can understand you wanting to help others.
But if you don't learn how to use this power we possess,
You will pay with your own life.
But...
But I...
I want to save everyone too, just like you two do.
Besides...
I made a promise...
Don't lose heart.
Yeah...
Huh?
Your talent is outstanding.
If you can learn how to use it, you can become a great Witch.
Witch? Wait, who are you?
Ah, sorry.
I haven't introduced myself yet.
I am a member of the 501st Joint Fighter Wing,
Also known as the Strike Witches,
Major Mio Sakamoto.
Hello...
She's the one who carried you and Micchan here.
Carried?
We are searching for promising future Witches with great magic potential.
I have witnessed your power.
You have a crude, yet amazing gift!
Thank you!
Now then, let's put that power to work and fight against the Neuroi!
Yes!
Huh?
That's...
Are you trying to take my granddaughter into the military?
Military...
No, thank you.
When I graduate from school, I'm going to take over this clinic!
Well, your wish to take over the clinic is wonderful.
But, there are people who needs your power even more.
Ah, I didn't expect to receive your consent right away.
But, you will definitely come to me!
H-how do you know that?!
Huh? It's my intuition!
But those with power are led to where their power is needed most.
Well then, I'll be waiting at the port!
Hijikata.
Yes.
What's with her? Geez!
My power is needed?
But... if I go to her, then that means I'll be engaging in war.
Not in a thousand years!
Mail for you.
Coming!
Thank you.
Mom! Grandma!
Why did a letter from Dad come?
Are you telling me Dad didn't die?!
Calm down.
It was mailed from Britannia.
Why only now...
Dad...
There's one more...
This person is...
Oh, Sakamoto-san, was it?
She knew Dad.
So, you've come!
I knew you'd make up your mind.
I see you've decided to put your power to work.
U-um...
It's okay! Don't worry about a thing.
Leave all the enlistment and school matters to me!
N-No, um...
I didn't come here to enlist.
A letter from Dr. Miyafuji?
So...
You know my dad...
Yeah.
I owe him my life.
It is because of his research that I am here now.
Is my dad alive?
That, I don't know.
But I will look into...
Take me with you! To Britannia!
I want to go there, and find out about my dad!
I like the look in your eyes.
All right.
We leave the day after tomorrow!
Thank you!
Ah, so about enlistment...
Forget it!
I will never participate in war!
All right, all right.
Yoshika-chan!
Good luck!
Micchan!
Take care!
Take good care of yourself.
Yoshika...
Mom...
Grandma...
I'll be back!
So, does the Akagi provide a smooth ride?
Ah, yes, it's very comfortable.
I see...
But the comfort is limited only to the ship.
I'm sure you've heard...
what Britannia is like now.
It's the front line in the fight against the Neuroi, who have conquered the continent.
Is your reason for going there,
really only to find out about your father?
There are many troubled people in Britannia, aren't there?
Indeed.
Many.
I...
I want to protect them!
The wounded, the sick. I want to use my power to help many people!
I promised my dad!
Sakamoto-san, is there anything I can do?
Cleaning, laundry, I'll do anything!
All right!
That's the spirit!
One, two... Miyafuji, are you on the deck?
Stay right there. I have something I want to show you.
Something to show me?
Mio Sakamoto.
Now conducting flight training!
Wow...
Sakamoto-san!
How was that?
I'm so impressed!
You looked so cool flying through the sky.
You were like a bird!
A bird, huh?
But we are not birds.
We are witches who soar through the blue sky...
Strike Witches!
Strike Witches...
And this is our magic broom...
The Striker Unit.
Dr. Miyafuji.
Your father is the one who accomplished this.
My dad did?!
With the invention of the Striker Unit,
We gained the power to fight back against the Neuroi.
Without them, the world might have been conquered by the Neuroi by now.
We, and all of humanity, owe Dr. Miyafuji our lives.
Dad...
Want to try it on?
Your father is the one who invented it.
There's no need to hesitate.
I think I'll pass.
I see.
I understand the work my dad did.
But...
I don't approve of war!
Hi, welcome back!
As usual, you two have no sense of urgency.
Dressed like that... We're on standby, you know!
Oh, come on. We got permission from the commander.
The analysis team said the enemy won't come for another twenty hours.
Besides, I've got nothing to lose if I'm seen like this.
Perrine, you'll be in trouble if you lose anything, so keep your clothes on.
That's none of your business!
I say, Major Sakamoto will return any moment now.
When she does, I'll tell her straight away about your slack behavior!
Whoa! A tattletale!
Such a flat-chest.
Shut your mouth!
I don't want to hear that from you, of all people!
The enemy?!
It can't be! It's too soon!
I still can't see it...
It will still take half a day to reach Britannia.
Be patient.
Yeah, but it's been a month already.
When we arrive, let's go to the address on the letter.
If we go there...
Sakamoto-sa-
Enemy attack!
Twelve o'clock, distance 4000!
It's the enemy!
This is not a drill!
T-That's the Neuroi...
Miyafuji! You're a noncombatant.
Take shelter in the sickbay!
O-Okay...
Dad...
To be continued
The roar tore through the air, and shook the heart of a young girl.
In the midst of despair, what is it that she sees...
Is it in the face of the enemy...
Or is it hope?
