[EDIT] On a loosely related note, kouryakukan is saying that the Gundam that appeared in Beat the other day was Zabaniya (idk why s/he says that, as far as I know there’s no concrete information on it and most of 2ch seems pretty convinced that it’s Raphael still)

Imma go back over this after a nap because I’m not very awake and have the distinct feeling that it might make more sense after I get some sleep.
Up, going back over it now. Positive there are some biggish errors.
Done going over it, there are still some messy spots but it should make a fair bit more sense now. I should note that I changed more than just the struck-through areas.

#I04 “Gundam”

Lyle makes an appearance at the beginning of this month’s story.
He was among the prisoners released at the same time Allelujah was rescued in episode 3 {holy shit wat}
In the moment Lars was trying to shoot an Innovade, he shot and stopped {??? maybe I’m just not getting it because I’m not totally awake, I’ll look at it again later, I think there’s something funky going on here subject-wise, or I’m missing other meaning of 止める that should be obvious}
In the instant Lars was about to shoot at an Innovade among the prisoners released at the same time Allelujah was rescued in episode 3, [Lyle] stopped him by sniping him {hurr, relative clause; also 狙撃して止まる is still tripping me up–mike_s_6, hope you don’t mind my re-correcting this based on your reading}

The scene changed and Leif was having a nightmare. {p. sure 地面 is a typo}
In his dream, Gundam Rasiel and 1 Gundam were fighting.
Grave and an Innovade who looked like Leif (Beside Pain) were piloting each of the Gundams.
Leif woke up when the machine(s) blew up.
*Linked to this month’s 00P

Leif talked to Dr. Terishia {sp} about the contents of his dream.
The doctor told him, “Even if that was your past, you weren’t yourself back then. But, essentially, your memories shouldn’t be able to transfer.”
“(Innovade’s) individual bodies last a long time so they can be recycled quite a few times.
The Innovades’ [recycling mechanism], is most likely the result of Veda not understanding human nature, and consequently, as a computer terminal, it sought only what was most efficient,” the doctor continued {*I think 仕様 is a typo for 使用 but I could be wrong, I just don’t really get how 仕様 works and it’s read the same as 使用 which does make sense, to me at least… so I don’t know}
But, after Leif and the Innovades they were searching for awakened, they would not be recalled.
This differed completely from how (Innovade) recycling [worked] up until this point.
Has it been decided that the six comrades I’m assembling are to guide the Innovades to the next step? Leif thought.
“Because all Innovades are just reiterated like computer terminals [over and over], if I/we could be set free, that’s something I’d like to accomplish.
And then a world where humans and Innovades can coexist [will be born].
If we of all people don’t believe in that hope…”

The scene changes to Lars staring at a campfire in the middle of the forest.
Once, in the past, Lars had slaughtered the combat Innovades who had appeared before the tomb of his wife, who they had killed with their own hands, with a knife.
And so, Lars targeted those he knew were Innovades by their faces, without differentiating between Innovades like Leif.
But, Lars was identified by Leif as one of the 6.
For that reason, he set his sights on the Doctor who hadn’t been a target (because of his physical appearance).

Leif himself didn’t know why Lars had been selected as one of the six.
Brun, who had regained consciousness, addressed to him via QBW.
Brun spoke. I awoke Terishia’s specialized quantum communication ability. And I can feel that power faintly calling out to Leif.

The scene changes to Katharon’s hideout. There, the doctor found an 874 type Innovade. And he met a “female type” Innovade like himself, Through Suruuzu. {this 自分と同じ isn’t implying that the doctor is also a female type Innovade, but that the female type Innovade is the same model as him like Revive and Anew; also not sure on the second part of the name, all I could find with that spelling of kana was a norse god, but I don’t think that’s what it is. Some other options: Slew Slews, Threw Threws, Through Sleuth, idk this one might be the weirdest Innovade name yet}
The doctor stiffened up.

The scene returns to Brun and Leif.
Brun sends Leif a single vision.
“This is….an enormous sealed power”
The image was of 1 Gundam from Leif’s dream.
Continued next issue.
