The year is 2010.
Catia has formed the Earth Defense Association.
We did
We did!
Its headquarters was built in secret in a civilian home in Okinawa.
Under the calm and cool Supreme Commander Eris,
the Dogisian invasion was averted.
Against the force made by the universe's best, the Catian mechanics,
the Dogisians have finished their preparations for a counter-assault.

作戦立てましたよ
I've come up with a plan to make you mine.
We have come to aim
The incident began a long time ago.
Fire!
Wow, they're pretty.
Christmas is around the corner.
This is how the followers of the faith celebrate the birth of their leader.
Not everyone believes in God.
They don't?
I don't know about overseas, but in Japan, people usually celebrate it.
It's like a festival or a special event.
Hey, Aoi.
What are you gonna do for Christmas this year?
What do you mean?
I'm talking about Kio!
You're going to ask him out, right?
Why are you so surprised?
This opportunity comes only once a year!
You have to get presents, go on a date, and earn some affection points with him.
But, Kio-kun looks rather busy.
He's only busy about Eris, so you shouldn't feel bad about it!
Listen, it's already been four months, yet they haven't gotten any closer. You had plenty of chances.
In fact, this is the best time to attack: while their relationship's at a stalemate.
Attack?
If I force it, it'll bother him.
Are you going to do it or not?
If Christmas is a chance for you to get close, it's also the same for Eris.
Are you fine with Kio and Eris getting intimate because they were together on Christmas?
You have to take the initiative and do something irreversible with Kio before Eris does.
Something irreversible with Kio-kun?
Eris' next mating season won't come for a while, but humans can do it all year long.
You gotta use that to your advantage.
Come on, don't you like Kio?
Like him...
Futaba-san!
Hear this!
Futaba-san, would you come with me...
What are you saying in public?!
You should only say that privately or somewhere more romantic!
What?
I was just about to ask her if she'd come with me since I found her favorite Ichikawa Raizou DVDs on sale.
No matter how many times you watch it, this movie's really good.
I don't like how they're so dependent on religion, but it's a great example of human generosity.
It's said that Earth celebrates Christmas at this time of the year.
It used to be for celebrating the birth of the founder,
but now it's become a day where people become especially generous.
I contacted Headquarters about the event, and they suggested that we should send them gifts.
On Earth there's a fabricated existence known as Santa Claus which represents gratuitous generosity.
That's why I'd like to put this operation into action under the name of Operation Santa Claus.
Danger
Captain, the radar shows several objects rapidly approaching our ship.
All ship on alert!
Show me the radar data!
All of them seem to be Earth's satellites.
They're scraps that have been put out of commission.
So the dogs are trying to pick a fight with us again?
Prepare the phaser cannon!
Target: harassment debris!
Ready for fire.
Fire!
Direct hit on all targets.
Targets annihilated.
Confirming nullification.
No matter or energy detected.
Goodness, those dogs pull off such annoying tricks.
A ship made from tilsonite and fortified tektites won't even be scratched by debris.
They probably can't attack us directly.
Dogisians are prohibited from making first contact.
I suspect that they're only doing this secretly.
It seems like these pranks are going to continue.
Break from alert status! Return to observation!
Roger!
Can I get this wrapped?
Is it for Christmas?
Yes.
You have to get presents, go on a date, and earn some affection points with him...
How can I do it...
Your points?
Oh, not at all.
You've saved up points. Would you like to use them?
Please keep them on the card.
We've received information from Headquarters.
It's the time schedule for Operation Santa Claus.
We have plenty of time until Christmas.
Can you calculate when the atmospheric entrance speed and angle synchronization, Melwin?
Sure, Captain.
I'm going to give my greetings to some executives on Earth, so I'll be leaving the ship in your hands for a while.
Are you asking me to be a deputy captain?
You have enough experience to do it.
Thank you, I'll do my best!
Doctor, do you have the item?
I do, so feel free to take it.
What are you talking about?
An early Christmas present for Kio-kun.
I'll be going over for dinner, so it's the least I can do.
It's so good!
It's delicious.
The sweetness of the black part and the texture of the meat are in absolute harmony.
They mix so well with the oil melted by the warmth of the rice.
It's so good!
It's delicious!
It's been far too long since I've had this!
I can't have enough of it.
They cooked the meal today.
We did
We did!
We did!!
We did!
We did!!
We did!
We did!!
It takes a lot of time to prepare the meat and cook it,
but they practiced hard and mastered it!
Good job, all of you!
Now we can take this delicacy back to our planet.
Eris's Assistaroids are such good kids.
Yes!
By the way, don't you have Assistaroids?
Yeah, I do.
They're inside this bell.
My bell and Chaika's are just for status and communication,
but high-ranking officers' bells also function as multi-task organizers.
Multi-task organizers?
They can modify the elemental composition of matter or freeze elements floating in air.
They can also be used as weapons.
Wow, that's impressive.
Oh, before I forget.
Let's see...
There it is.
Here, this is for you.
What's this?
You said you wanted an emergency weapon the other day, right?
It's a power suit for combat.
Thank you so much!
It requires a certain trick to use it. You can get Eris to teach it to you later.
Yes!
What's wrong, Eris?
I feel a bit lonely.
I don't think you should use this suit...
I know it's pathetic, but I've been thinking that I shouldn't let you and Futaba-san handle everything.
I'm a man, after all.
I don't quite understand how being a man relates to fighting,
but I'm glad you feel that way.
I was hoping that you wouldn't have to do this.
That means we must put in more effort to sign the agreement.
If we can befriend Earth, Kio-kun wouldn't need to use the suit.
Yes.
It should be about time.
What do you think, Muttley?
I agree
Alright, let's move to phase two.
Contact your friends.
We're making our move.
Melwin
Kuune
Let's go play!
Manami?
Aoi!
I'll be right down.
So, what did you get for him?
A DVD box for the films of Bantou-han and Decchi-don.
A what?
It's an old television show starring Oomura Kon,
and I thought he'd like this, since the actor resembles Sada-yan.
I'm not going to say anything about your weird tastes, but...
Why didn't you pick something romantic that both of you can watch together?
Still...
Do you really think you can kiss him from watching that film?
K-Kiss?!
I don't think we need to rush it and know how we feel...
If you don't do it now, when are you gonna do it?
It's Christmas for heaven's sake! Christmas!
Well...
I see, like Valentine's?
You're naïve!
What if Eris takes a shot at him first?
But...
I don't really have a problem with the way things are right now.
I'm fine just being able to be around him.
Stop.
Now's the only time you'll be able to look at it like that.
Manami?
You see, if you miss this opportunity, you'll never get another one.
You can't turn back time.
If you really like him, you should act now before it's too late.
You'll regret it if you fall behind because you're embarrassed.
So...
Apport!
What is this?
Everyone, defend!
What's wrong, everyone?
It's Nefelter Gas.
It's completely jamming their sensors.
Everyone, hibernate!
Here they come.
Let's run through the yard.
Don't come this way!
What about my armor?
It hasn't been initialized yet, so you can't use it.
Let's head upstairs.
Got it!
Roger.
Danger
The third external shell has been destroyed.
Energy detected.
We're under attack.
Level 3 emergency status.
Report damages.
What are we facing?
I sense six unidentified objects inside our ship.
No, seven.
They're rather small.
They're Assistaroids!
Dispatch security.
Equip the Assistaroids with level 3, no... level 4 weaponry and get them ready to sortie.
Roger.
Lock down and secure the bridge.
Roger.
Space-time acquired.
System dimensional separation complete.
Temporary space-time control system, ready.
All hands, hold your positions.
Complete the absolute defense setup.
We'll leave the fighting to the security personnel.
How did they get in?
Our sensors didn't pick up any ships in the vicinity.
Where did they come from?
Fire!
Wait...
Were they stuck to the debris?
They launched their Assistaroids into space at the risk of destroying them?
Have they no pride as people?!
What?!
We need masks!
It's sleeping gas!
This way!
Friend, sleep in silence
Captain!
Captain Kuune!
You little...

We cannot attack
This is well within our expectation
Captain!
Please... take... this.
Eris, the Captain collapsed!
Captain! Captain! Captain!
Eris, can you use your scanning tool?
Yes!
Thank goodness, she's alive.
Then we should heal-
What's wrong?
We can't.
They didn't drug her. They injected her with nanomachines.
They sent tiny machines into her brain to block her electrical synapses.
If she isn't given proper treatment, the nanomachines could kill her.
Captain, we have an emergency!
Where's Captain Kuune?
Well...
Captain!
What happened?
We were attacked by Dogisians.
You too?
What happened over there?
Our ship was attacked, and it's no longer under our control.
At this rate, it'll crash into Earth within two weeks.
What's the status?
We're not quite sure what's going on.
The bridge is safe in hyperspace,
but the rest of the ship is completely frozen in time and the other personnel can't even escape.
Frozen in time?
I never thought the dogs had such advanced technology.
Our ship's course has been locked, so we can't do anything about it from our end.
We'll go up there to rescue you.
Can we teleport there?
No, all the teleportation stations outside the ship have fallen to enemy hands.
Understood, then I'll call Rulos.
This is bad!
Emergency!
What's wrong, Rulos?
I'm under attack!
I'm getting bombarded!
What's the damage?
25% at the moment.
My camouflage mechanism is completely destroyed.
Who's attacking you?
The dogs' weapons!
They'll be breaking my shield in a few moments.
Engine load has topped at 45%.
Rulos, activate program H-36.
Roger!
Activating H-36.
Rulos?
Rulos!
Rulos! Rulos!
The Catian ship is going to crash into Earth with its personnel on board.
The Captain has fallen unconscious.
They have two weeks at most.
What will Earth do?

Which way is tomorrow?
Next time!
We have come to search.

See you again!
