Last installment of 00P. The series is being replaced with 00N starting next month (sorta, next month is the prologue, so it’ll probably be short/previewish). Assuming I’m not reading too much into the 00N description, it sounds quite interesting.

Also, just a reminder, SE I is out in ~5 days.
[EDIT] Seems like someone on 2ch has it already (actually, it kind of looks like at least 2 people have it). I’ve been skimming through the last few threads to see if they mention anything, all I’ve caught so far is that the movie news flash is “interesting,” but I’ve just been scanning through quickly so there’s probably more information floating around that I’ve missed. Hoping the news flash will show up on nico soon.

00P #25 “FRIEND”

Chall was crushed by sadness upon learning of Grave’s “record erasure” {idk, haven’t been keeping up with 00P enough, so the term might not make sense}
From Chall’s personal computer terminal, data on “Fon Spark,” who Grave was proposing to scout, was sent to Veda.
Seeing that, Chall made the best use of what Grave had left behind for her. She decided to make Fon Spark a comrade and continue moving forward.

Elsewhere, in the void of space, the battle between Beside Pain in 1 Gundam along with his support units and Meister 874 in Gundam Artemie continued.
But, in a three-on-one battle, Artemie was accumulating damage bit by bit.
847’s cockpit was struck with a beam, when 874 resolved to “hit” as well, a GN Beam Shield protected 874 from the beam aimed at her.
Gundam Rasiel had forced it’s way through [the fray].

Rasiel was being piloted by a “revived” Grave.
Realizing that Grave was “not human,” Moreno treated him swiftly, along with support from Ian.
Grave’s brainwaves had already stopped, but after a short time he was revived.
But, because the bullet Grave was shot with had been laced with cell-destroying nanomachines, Grave could only stay alive for about 30 minutes.
Using that time, Grave decided to sortie in Gundam Rasiel’s second form using a condenser to help 874.
“Doctor, Ian. I’m grateful to both of you.
I would have died after a few minutes.
But before that happened, I was granted a reprieve to complete my final duty.
Compared to my entire life up until now, these fleeting minutes are most precious.”
Ian and Moreno saw Grave off as he thanked them simply with a big nod.

Seeing Rasiel, Beside was thrown into chaos.
Grave advocated that he stop what he was doing.
“Someone who escaped death has….!” Beside rejected the recommendation.
Before Beside, Rasiel quickly discarded it’s weapons, and lowered the machine onto an asteroid. {there are like three をs in this sentence D: }
Grave was trying to provoke him.
Graves actions made Beside completely lose his composure.
The fundamental characteristic of Beside’s personality was that he “loathed his plans going awry.” Because a course of action had been established, but Grave, who should have been eliminated, was still hanging around, everything was screwed up.

Taken in by Rasiel’s provocation, Beside drew near.
In order to conserve particles, Grave waited until the last moment to draw his beam saber.
In the instant the two Gundams came into contact, Beside’s special ability was put into effect.
“Install!”
The ability was that Beside’s restricted/limited personal data can be forced upon and overwrite any Innovade linked with Veda. {限定的な個人データ not totally sure about that adjective, I kind of think it’s something like a limited portion/version of Beside’s personal data can be used to overwrite other Innovades, but idk}
But, because Grave had his “record erased,” and was released from his Veda link, this technique was useless.
Grave tore 1 Gundam to pieces.

Beside quickly transfered all of his personal data to one of the Innovades piloting his support units with the same base pattern.
But, the cockpit was destroyed mid-transfer, and the data that made Beside an individual was mostly lost, and disappeared.

20 minutes had elapsed since Gundam Rasiel sortied.
Grave didn’t even have 5 minutes left.
In the end, Grave sent a voice-only transmission to Hixar.
Hixar was lying on the bed in his room, but his eyes were not focused on anything.

Grave spoke, intentionally not naming himself.
He reported the progress of the battle in a business-like manner. He let emotion slip into the last words.

“So… Stand up and live.”

Then, these last words revived Hixar, and it was determined that he would work for the plan.

Rasiel, having exhausted all of it’s particles, and Grave, having finished all his duties, quietly began a journey into the abyss.

A record of a civil war from Veda.
Grave is dead. All of [his?] actions were overlooked.
Upon being equipped with an anti-treachery explosive, Hixar [became?] a private Veda agent {I think?}
As for Meister 874, under the saboteur to Aeolia’s plan, she caused the conflict of her own accord, but no evidence was found. {er… I’m really not sure if that makes any sense, this last chunk is confusing}
Taking responsibility for the civil war, she was sealed into a restricted-function terminal and assigned to Fershette.
Beside Pain’s sub-body had a new personality written to it, and became an observation Innovade.
