Yes, I am aware of that.
Let me teach him that to stay alive is true suffering.
For all eternity, he will pay…
…for the grievous sin of injuring you.
He will suffer unceasing despair, anguish…
…wounds which can never be healed!
A wonderful show is about to begin…
…in which you are the star…
…Vash the Stampede.
Three?
Three demons are here?!
That’s right. This is your big comeback celebration…
… Vash the Stampede.
What is that?!
Hey… you! Are you from the outside?
We’re a peaceful people! So please leave this p…
He’s just lying there.
What is he doing?
Hey, you! Get out of here!
You must be aware that this ship…
… is easy prey.
The next few moments are likely to be…
… the most fulfilling you have ever experienced.
You have a short temper.
Then again, we’re probably the cause of your temper.
What now?
Doctor, what’s the situation?
Oh, Vash!
Intruders are approaching from both sides of the ship.
The ones who went to check it out…
… stopped reporting in.
I’m going to do it my way.
A word for the wise:
We’re not dealing with typical human beings.
If you try pulling the same stunt as before, I guarantee…
…they’ll kill you.
Go to where the doctor is.
Wait! What the hell are these things?!
Do we have you to blame?!
Go, now!!
How many of these things are there?!
I’m getting nowhere!
Where’s the man behind the curtain? Where?!
The kick is too strong!!
Must aim…
I can’t trust you to do everything!
This is bad. They’re after the power plant.
W-What?!
Are they trying to make us crash?!
Now our fates rest with those two men.
Everything depends on Vash the Stampede and the minister in black.
Finally you’re here.
I bet you’re after the power plant.
I’m amazed a big guy like you managed to get in so far!
Fine! You’re a worthy opponent!
Do you understand what I’m saying?!
I’m saying, I will show no mercy!!
What?!
Well, that was different!
I’ll show you!
Fool!!
I think that’s most of them.
Yeah.
Vash!
One of them is heading for Power Room no.2!
They’re trying to bring down the ship!!
Power Room no.2?! That’s 6 floors below us!
Hey, what are you doing?
I’m making a shortcut.
But now that I stop to think about it…
…this is pretty…
…scary!!!
That idiot.
Ow, ow, ow…
This new model is great! What power!
Now…
No.
No…
Val…
Jones… Lumiera…
Farina…
I remember you…
…all of you. I’ve never forgotten you.
I’m sorry I didn’t come home.
I’m…
Don’t make me laugh.
What’re you crying for? This only happened because you’re here, remember?
I am the third Gung-Ho Gun, Hoppered the Gauntlet.
Why?! Why did you have to kill them?!
Why do you have to do this?!
Because you’re Vash the Stampede.
Compared to what you did toJuly and Augusta…
…this is a tiptoe through the tulips!
You shouldn’t be on this planet.
That’s why I’m going to crush you with my G√∂tterer.
How’d you like that?
No effect!
I get it… You’re Gray the Ninelives!
So, the rumor of the man with nine extra lives…
…was true!
What the hell did you do that for?!
This can’t get any worse!
In another language…
…the word “contradict” is derived from when a great spear and a great shield…
…were pitted against each other and both broke.
However, my shield is invincible. It will repel any kind of attack.
Okay, then how about this?!
That’s what they call a waste of time.
Nothing can contradict G√∂tterer!
I have only three words in my vocabulary:
Attack, trample, and destroy.
These describe what you’ve been doing all this time…
…Vash the Stampede.
No way!
That explains your invulnerability.
This simplifies matters!
Stop it!!
Yes, that’s it! Keep making those faces.
I can’t get enough of them!
Is it so much to ask? Can’t you leave them alone?
Are you telling me I had this done to me…
…just so I could listen to this nonsense?
You’re crazier than they told me.
I’m going to pulverize you, and this ship…
…into tiny little pieces!
Must keep moving!
I promised her! I must keep moving!!
Leonof’s wire!
Hey, snap out of it!
Th… The plant!
What?!
The plant!
Well, I’ll be going.
Persistent bugger!
I’m out of ammo!
Nuts! It’s too close!
Stop!
STOP IT!!!
Hey, I think it stopped.
You’re right.
What is that?
Plant no.1 is down!
This is not good. The power levels of plant no.2 are also dropping.
The plant is shutting down?
Is our city gonna fall?!
Dammit, why did this happen?!
Until yesterday, all I had to think about…
…was how to get the girl I love to look my way!
Are you giving up already?
It’s too soon to give in to despair!!
We haven’t tried everything yet!
If you’re still alive, prove it! Think!!
Think of what you should be doing!
You can work the controller, can’t you?
Yes.
There is still time…
…still!
Can you do anything with it?
Well, can you?!
Hey, little sister. Just a little longer…
Hold on just a little longer…
…please.
W-What is that?
What?!
The plant is up again!
The power levels are rising!
We’re going to make it!

All right!! – We’re saved!!
Good… That’s the way…
The beings who live outside of time.
Vash the Stampede!!!
Don’t!!
It all went down the way they wrote it!!
Damn it!
Like it or not, the time will come!!
The time will come for all of you to live on that desert planet!
I never thought I would be the one to trigger it.
What are you doing here?!
Don’t tell me that the girl we saved was a…
The ship…
We’re done for… We’re stuck on this planet…
Our way of life…
…our peaceful days are over.
Damn… How did this happen?!
It’s Vash!
This is his fault!!
Yeah! Everything was fine until he came back!!
Forgive me…
Do you think that’ll make it better?!
SHUT UP!
It was bound to happen someday! It was obvious!!
We were just running from reality!!
We didn’t lift a finger, so we have no right to place blame!
We just huddled together, shaking in fear!!
We’re alive, so it can still work out!
If we all work together, we can live on this ball of sand!!
Brad…
Vash!Brad…
Vash! – Jessica!
You’re all right! What a relief!! I haven’t thanked you.
Thanks for the coat. It fits like a glove.
Thanks. It looks great on you, Vash.
She’s totally ignoring the state of the ship. Women are tough!
NEEDLE-NOGGI N!!!
Brad!
Brad…
BRAD!!!
I failed.
But it was the perfect plan…
You depraved lunatic!!!
This is killing me.
Are you crying, Vash the Stampede?
That is a wonderful thing.
Brad!
Brad!!
Hang on, Brad!!
Brad…
The beings who live outside of time…
My hands grew this big in 13 years…
… but you really don’t change a bit.
Brad…
BRAD!!!
Eternal pain, hm?
Self-protection. The means of protecting oneself.
People expose their weaknesses, and thus form a group.
Before they know it, they begin to exclude outsiders.
But what becomes of those who have been excluded?
I smiled at the children who lived in a tight group in their rickety house.
Let’s live today. Let’s live tomorrow. And let’s live the day after that…
…even if it means living in eternal pain.
