4 4 301 DialogEnable Nanami's thoughts start to drift away after wandering and fighting through countless worlds.
5 5 301 She is facing a dark, void space. No planets or stars can be detected nearby, nor is she able to receive signals of any frequency. Even the temperature in this area is closer to the absolute zero.
6 6 301 She just curls up in the vacuum, letting the abyss consume her.
7 7 301 Lights of future die in the darkness, but more stars appear from this "infinite" space.
8 8 301 When the light shines upon Nanami, everything seems to move in slow motion.
9 9 301 She remembers a human who once told her that humans could enter the "mind palace" during deep thinking, in which they could think at an incredibly fast speed that also made time flow slower to them.
10 10 301 Nanami, however, never thought about lives in the universe or complicated scientific theories. Her mechanically-made chip and cords repeat one and only one question—"Why?"
27 27 301 —It overwhelms the high-speed data flow in her mind like a storm, capturing every piece of memory whether they are real or only exist in the program's simulation.
28 28 301 Nanami looks at the scenes in her memory and feels deeply confused but curious.
29 29 301 Nanami's curiosity, however, is nothing like what humankind feels when seeing something they've never seen—rather, she is feeling curious about how she came into being.
30 30 301 Why?
31 31 301 How did the machines manage to awaken when they were man-made?
32 32 301 And for what?
33 33 301 In different futures, Nanami comes across mechanoids like herself—who are fond of humans and pursue human consciousness. And there are those like Gabriel—who believe power is everything—and those from "Gear" who are set on fighting humans. They don't fight to live, but to find the meaning of war.
34 34 301 What's the point of war anyway?
35 35 301 Why did Punishing appear? Why would it fall upon the earth? What was controlling and manipulating Punishing? What did they want?
36 36 301 Why is humankind so stubborn about Earth, anyway? Is it because they love it? But why? What is love, anyway?
37 37 301 And what is Nanami seeking after all? To protect the things she loves, so they don't disappear?
38 38 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Was it designed by Nanami's creator, who added "love" to her program logic... Or something else?
40 40 301 AniZhuanchangEnd Nanami had a long dream during endless, prolonged thinking.
41 41 301 In the dream, she seems to have turned into a giant, pale-gray wolf running on the ancient wilderness, chased by a gray forest that strangled her claws with thorns.
42 42 301 She struggles, growls, but could not do anything.
58 58 301 As she stumbles forward, buildings rise under her feet. Giant ships sail from the ocean in distance. She sees everything underneath in a miniature scale. Humans gather in cities, civilizations begin to grow. Skyscrapers pierce through the ground. The honking of cars and howling wind make her drowsy.
63 63 301 The steel buildings continue to rise and wrap her inside. She sees a large, complicated computer standing in front. She looks around, this place feels so familiar but strange.
64 64 301 A person in white walks around Nanami, their eyes shining and their hands moving as they speak like a commandant. Nanami could almost see a promising future in those eyes.
65 65 301 She grabs the finger of that human.
66 66 301 The human pats her forehead. It is the first time she feels the warmth of a human since she was born as a mechanoid.
67 67 301 Human ...Nanami, experience everything of mankind, then make your own choice.
68 68 301 Nanami Nanami does not understand. What does that mean?
69 69 301 She hears her answer that overlaps with her own, naive voice long ago.
70 70 301 Nanami Are you the human who created Nanami? Can you tell me why you made me...?
71 71 301 Before she hears an answer, she is thrown into another scene.
83 83 301 Like a child that falls from space into soft cotton, Nanami finds herself lying on a boat. The boat is sailing smoothly on a peaceful sea. She turns around and sees her most familiar human next to her side.
