[creatures whooping and whistling]

[lumbering giant bug]

huh?!

ohm tracks...

...looks like they're still fresh

huh?!

a perfect ohm shell!

amazing!

I've never seen a whole shell before

[blade ringing]

huh?!

a perfect sound!

uhh!

[groans]

ahh!

huh?! it even chipped a
xerconian ceramic sword!

this should make the people
of the valley happy,

they won't have to worry
about finding materials

for making tools
for a long time

what an amazing eye...

I wonder if I can fly back
home with this...

[clicking]

[tapping]

[klakha-klink!]

[clicks]

[fazhoomm!]

[blade striking]

uhmh!

it came off!

ah, it's so light!

[laughing]

oh...

...the mushigo palms are sending
out their afternoon spores...

it's so beautiful...

it's hard to believe these
spores could k*ll me

five minutes without a
mask and I'd be dead

Huh?

what's that?

my heart's pounding...

what's going on?

[distant g*nf*re]

huh? g*nshots!

someone is in trouble,

the insects must
be attacking!

[g*nf*re continues]

[insect squeals]

oops, sorry!

[trruipp!]

[g*nshots continue]

[bwaaoommm!!!]

there they are!

look at that cloud of spores...

[brrgaassh!!]

an ohm!

it must be the one that
shed that shell

[bwaammm!]

[bwaamm!!]

[bwaammm!!!]

whoever it's chasing will
never escape that way

[kla-kah klak!]

[clink!]

[blaamm!!]

[projectile whistling]

[insects screeching]

I hope they see the signal
[reloading and c*ck]

[countershot whistling]

good, they're coming this way!

[thump!]

[twop!]

[tshkech!]

[tweewok-tweep!]

[air blast]
- bwheeoohh!

[jet blasting]
- vhwoooshh!!!

[glider whizzing]

[sssshh!]

[whoooshh!]

[hhssss!]

[bwaaahmm!]

[vawhooshh!]

[ssshwaasshh!]

there they are!

[horseclaws squawking]

[rumbling]

[brrgaassh!!]

what an amazing ohm!

[Nausicaä] get upwind of it!!

[rider] right!!

ohm, go back to the jungle!

this is not your world!

come on now be good!

[growling]

look at those red eyes,

it's blind with rage,

I've got to calm it!

[grenades exploding]

[ohm bellows]

[horseclaws hooting]

[rumbling]

look at that,

she's stunned it with
flashgrenades!

[pulsating hum]

an insect charm...

[humming continues]

ohm wake up!

you need to go back
to your jungle

[carapace rumbling]

It's coming to

[groaning]

[ground rumbling]

unbelievable!

it's going back to the jungle...

she turned it back with nothing but an
insect charm and flashgrenades

[horseclaws squawking]

[wind howling]

[wind vanes rattling]

Lord Yupa!!

[lord Yupa laughing]

Nausicaä!
I didn't recognized you

[Nausicaä!]
It's been over a year now,

it's great to see you

[Lord Yupa]
thank you for helping
me with that ohm

you've certainly mastered
that glider of yours

[Nausicaä!] you think so?

father says I have
a long way to...

hmm?

[Lord Yupa] ah? oh yes!

I forgot all about
this little fellow,

he's the reason I got in
trouble with the ohm
[creature squeaking]

[Nausicaä!]
wow! is that a fox-squirrel?
I've never seen one

[Lord Yupa] I hadn't either,

I saw an insect carrying him off

and I mistook him
for a human baby,

I had no choice but
to use my g*n

[Nausicaä!]
oh, so that's why the ohm
was so angry with you

[Lord Yupa]
he's quite spirited,

apparently he didn't inhale too
much of the jungle's poisons

better not touch him,

even the babies are vicious

[Nausicaä!] come on,

it's okay!
[squeaking]

[Lord Yupa] careful!

[Nausicaä]
theres nothing to fear,

[snarling]

nothing to fear

[chomp]

hmph!

see? nothing to fear

[growling]

right?

you were just a little scared,
weren't you?

[giggles]

he's perfect!

will you let me keep
him lord Yupa?

[Lord Yupa]
of course, certainly

[Nausicaä giggles]

thank you!

Kai! Kui! do you
remember me?!

what a mysterious
power she has

[giggling]

you must be tired after
running from that ohm?

[giggling]

[Lord Yupa]
so how's your family Nausicaä?

[birds squawking]

what's wrong?

[Nausicaä]
it's...

[sighs]

father can't fly anymore

[Lord Yupa] King Jihl?

so the jungle's poisons
are taking their toll?

[Nausicaä] yes,

father says it's the fate of all of
us who live near the jungle

[Lord Yupa] I'm sorry,

I should've come sooner

[Nausicaä]
no, I'm just glad you
could come at all

lord Yupa,

there's something I want to show you
when we get back to the valley,

- I've created my own secret room
oh? -

I haven't shown it to anyone yet
because I think it'll frighten them,

you get to be the first!

I'll go on ahead and announce you,

see you there!

Lord Yupa? -

- hmm?

do you think you could carry
this back for me?

I'm afraid it is not the easiest
thing to fly with!

[chuckles] she certainly knows
how to read the wind

come you two, we're almost there

[flaps whirring]

[birds chirping]

[gulping]

[man]
oh! Lord Yupa!

[Lord Yupa]
Gol! Muzu! how you've been?

[men laughing]

[Gol]
good, good!

the wind is strong and
the water is clear

[little valley girls]
- Hi!
- Hi lord Yupa!

[Lord Yupa]
hello girls, you're looking well

- hurry, hurry! -
[crowd murmuring]

- lord Yupa!

[valley woman]
welcome home lord Yupa!

[valley man]
we've waited so long
for your return!

[man]
princess, lord Yupa has arrived

[Nausicaä]
I'm almost finished!

[man]
welcome back lord Yupa!

[Lord Yupa]
why Mito, you're looking fit!

[Mito]
thank you sir, I'm looking
forward to hearing all

the news from the other
kingdoms tonight!

[Nausicaä]
ok, start 'er up!

[windmill creaking]

[Mito]
nice work princess

[Nausicaä] thanks!

[Gol]
this is high-grade material lord Yupa!

[Valley elder]
I'll send out a party to retrieve the rest
of the shell first thing tomorrow!

[Nausicaä]
come on, it's ok

[Toeto] yes ma'am

[Nausicaä]
lord Yupa, we had a baby
born in the Valley this year

[Lord Yupa]
wonderful! let's have a look

oh, she's a fine baby,
strong and healthy

she reminds me of Nausicaä as a child

[Toeto]
we would be very honored if you
would choose a name for her

[Valley woman]
with your blessing fair winds
are sure to favor her

[Lord Yupa] very well,

I'll see that she is
given a good name

[Toeto]
thank you lord Yupa,

may she grow up to be strong
just like princess Nausicaä

[Mito] hmph!

it's good to hope for a daughter
whose strong like the princess,

but not for one who likes
to play in the toxic jungle

[Nausicaä]
but Mito, the jungle is where
I found the ohm shell

[Mito]
all I do is worry when she's
running around out there,

I'd trade a thousand ohm shells

for a good night's sleep
[men chuckles]

[Gol laughs]

sorry Mito, we'd rather
have the ohm shells

and I think the princess should
explore all she wants

[Lord Yupa] I agree,

who else would rescue me
when I'm in trouble?

[all laughing]

[children shouting laughing]

[Valley folk]
- welcome home!
- welcome home lord Yupa,

- you've been missed!

- our blessings lord Yupa!

- we're so happy you've returned!

- lord Yupa!

[men laughing]

[man]
so Nausicaä rescued
the brave lord Yupa

[Lord Yupa]
this is such a wonderful valley Jihl,

it soothes my heart

[King Jihl]
how are the other kingdoms
you visited faring?

[Lord Yupa]
hmm, things are grim

I found two more kingdoms
to the south

that have been consumed
by the jungle

It seems as if it spreads
faster everyday,

and the kingdoms that still survive
are torn by w*r and starvation,

the cities are plagued with fear,

why can't the the other kingdoms
live happily as you do here?

[old woman]
it's because we have the
wind from the sea

to protect us from the
jungle's poisons

we know the poison cannot
reach us here

[King Jihl]
lord Yupa, isn't it about time
you settled down here?

with my present condition, it would
bring peace of mind to us all

[Lord Yupa] hmm...

[old woman laughs]

that's impossible

lord Yupa must continue
his search,

it's his destiny

[slurps]

[Lord Yupa]
it's my destiny is it?

[Nausicaä]
Obaba, what is it that
lord Yupa searches for?

[Obaba] what?

Nausicaä, how could you
not know this child?

the answer is on the tapestry
which hangs before you,

although I can no longer
see it, I remember it well...

there is a figure in the
upper left corner,

"After a thousand years of
darkness, he will come,

clad in blue and surrounded
by fields of gold,

to restore mankind's connection with
the earth that was destroyed"

[Nausicaä]
"and he will guide the people of this
planet at last to a land of purity"

Lord Yupa are you searching
for the Man in Blue?

I thought that was just a myth?

[Lord Yupa] it is a myth,

Obaba is just teasing me

[Obaba]
not true, that is the goal you seek

[Lord Yupa]
the only goal I seek Obaba is
to understand the mysteries

of the toxic jungle,

I want to know if mankind is truly
fated to be swallowed up by it

or if there is still some hope
that we may survive,

I want to know the truth

[wind howling]

[trees rustling]

...I wish there was something I
could do to help lord Yupa...

[wind howling]

[windmills groaning]

[footsteps]

[knocking on door]

[Mito] Princess?

Princess!

[Nausicaä]
Mito? what is it?

[Mito]
Gol has detected something in the wind

[Nausicaä]
alright, I'll be right there

[trees rustling]

[Nausicaä]
what's going on?

[Gol]
there's a good storm
brewing princess,

but I'm afraid something is not right!

[wind whistling]

[windmills groaning]

[Nausicaä] huh?!

there it is!

up there!

It's an airship

[Mito]
what in the world is an airship
doing way out here?

[Lord Yupa]
what's going on?

[Mito]
lord Yupa, there's an airship

[Lord Yupa] are you sure?

[Nausicaä] here it comes!

[Mito] it's enormous...

[ship rumbling]

[all gasps]

[Lord Yupa]
it's a Tolmekian ship

[Nausicaä] it's in trouble!

[Nausicaä]
they're trying to make
an emergency landing

help me launch Gol!

[Gol] what?!

[Mito]

[Nausicaä]
I'll just guide them to the shore!

[turbine starting]
vwaangweooomm

[Gol]

[Nausicaä] the cargo?

[Lastel]

[Nausicaä]

[man1 : look over there!]
[man2 : where?!]

[Lastel] thank God

[Mito] Princess!!!

[yes follow me, follow me!!]

[every direction!]
[put out the fire here!]

[we need more men, hurry!]

[hurry!!]

[on the left, the left!]

[Mito]

a tolmekian ship?

[ssrrth!]

[tchwingg!]

[yeah, bring it here]
[right!]

[come on men!]

[mandibles chattering]

- maybe it can't fly!

- hurry get your g*ns!

[Gol]

[Nausicaä] wait!

[All cheering]

- wooo!! -
[all laughing]

- yes!! -

- it worked!! -

- unbelievable! she did it!!
- nice job princess!! -

[Mito] thank goodness,
[we're saved!]

I hate to think what would've
happened if the insects

in the jungle would've
come to its aid!

[humming continue]

[gasps]

huh!

an ohm...

[distant rumbling]

[airship engines roaring]

[Valley folk]
- this row is clear!
- don't touch this area!

- it's all clear!
- we haven't covered this part yet

- the west grove is open!
- [check under every leaf]

- do you see any?!

[lad]
over here, I found one!

[villager : you found one?]

down here!

that ship was infested
with spores all right

[Valley man]
good thing you found this before
it released its poisons

[fshwmm!]

[fshhwmmm!]

[valley man]
keep up the good work son

[lad]
I'll keep searching 'til
I find every last one!

- ack! what in the world do
you think that thing is?

- I don't know, the fire didn't
seem to harm it all

[Mito]
okay everyone we'll examine
this thing later

go help look for spores
in the fields

[grumbling]

make sure you get every
last one of 'em!

what a mess those tolmekians
dumped on us!

[Lord Yupa]
Mito, take a look at this

[Mito] what?!

[organic mass throbbing]

it's beating like a heart,

it looks like this
thing is alive

lord Yupa, what is this?

[Lord Yupa]
while I was traveling, I heard
heard a frightening rumor

It was said that a monster
from the old world

was unearthed from deep
beneath the city of Pejite

[Mito]
a monster from the old world?

[Lord Yupa]
a giant warrior

[Mito] a giant warrior?

from the Seven Days of Fire? that
was a thousand years ago!

it can't be...

[Lord Yupa]
after they incinerated the Earth

all the giant warriors were said
to have turned to stone

apparently one has lain dormant
deep underground

for the past 1000 years

[Mito]
if they unearthed it in Pejite,

what was it doing on
a Tolmekian ship?

[Lord Yupa]
Tolmekia is far to the west, and
its rulers are very warlike

that they had a Pejite hostage
on board worries me

[Nausicaä]
take care of the rest will you?
[valley man] right

[Teto growling]

what can it be?

[rumbling]

[woman] huh?! whats that?

[girl] what's that?

[villagers murmuring]

[engines roaring]

[boy] aaah!

[people screaming]

[brrgaassh!!]

[Nausicaä]
Tolmekian airships!

get everyone to the castle!

out of the way!

[ground rumbling]

[man] ohh!

[panting]

[Nausicaä]
everyone in the castle!

everyone in the castle!

hurry!!!

huh!

they're after father!

[soldiers hutting]

[royal guard] Move out! go!

go! forward!

[tank engines whining]

[chwhiwohk!]

[King Jihl]
Obaba, quickly hide yourself

[Obaba]
I think I'll stay right here

[engine humming]

- Go, go! Go!
- move out!

[squad leader] up there!

[approaching footsteps]

[soldiers] hold it!

[g*nshots]

huh?!

[child] princess!

[panting]

[gasps]

huh?!

[shuddering]

[Teto squeaks]

I'll k*ll you!!!

[bashing, grunting, groaning]

uhh!

aaahh!!

ahh!
[chwhing!]

oooff!

[soldier]
rrraarrrghh!

[sword swashing, clashing]

[bash]
aargghh!

oomph!
[thud]

[screaming]

[shield clanking]

[royal guard grunting]

uh!

[Obaba]
huh?! Nausicaä!

[Nausicaä] aahhh!!

uhh!!

huh?!

[Lord Yupa] don't move!

this ohm shell knife can
slice right through that
[guard shuddering]

xerconian ceramic
armor of yours

[royal guard]
that's lord Yupa,

the sword master!

[Lord Yupa]
soldiers of Tolmekia,

hear me now!

last night, the people of this
valley risked their lives

attempting to prevent your
airship from crashing

and just this morning they finished
giving your dead a proper burial

this may be a small kingdom,

but it clearly deserves your
courtesy and respect!

if you are here to make w*r there
must be a fitting reason, and

it's only right to first send a messenger
[blood dripping]

to announce your grievances!

[shuddering]

[Lord Yupa]
Nausicaä, be calm

If you fight now, the people of
the Valley will be massacred
[dripping echoing]

we must stay alive and wait
for the right opportunity
[drips echoing]

[groaning]
uunghn...

I'm going to...

[woman]
put it down, Kurotowa

but she...

[sighs]

oh fine,

but look at this mess, now I
must acquire all new men!

[woman commander]
so you're lord Yupa, the greatest
swordsman in the land

I'm offended that you think
we need reprimanding

we're not savages who've come
to m*ssacre your people,

we're here to talk,

so would you put your
knife away, please?

[blade sliding]

[royal guard] ahh, beat it!

[sword clanks]

[royal guard captain]
secure the room!

[flag flapping]

[Valley folk murmuring]

[Mito]
huh?! it's the princess!

[man] the princess!

[woman] she's ok!

[Kurotowa] listen now!

you will be addressed by
her highness Kushana,

commander of the
Tolmekian army!

[Kushana] villagers!

we have come to your land
in the name of peace,

our goal is to unify the kingdoms
surrounding Tolmekia,

and build a world
of prosperity

you now live at the
edge of the jungle,

on the verge of extinction!

follow us, and join
our enterprise,

we shall put the toxic
jungle to the torch,

and resurrect this
land together!

[burn the jungle?]
[burn the toxic jungle?]

[with what?]
[Muzu] : is that possible?

[Kushana]
I have in my possession
mankind's greatest tool,

the awesome force which once
allowed human beings

to rule the Earth.

I guarantee

that those who join me,

will live without fear
of the insects

or the jungle's poisons

ever again!

[Obaba] stop!

stop I say!

you must not touch
the toxic jungle!

[Kurotowa]
what are you babbling
about woman?

guards, take her away!

[Kushana]
no, let her speak

[Obaba]
since the origin of
the toxic jungle,

a thousand years ago,

people tried time and
again to burn it,

but time and again their attempts
did nothing but enrage the ohm

and swarms of them spills
from the jungle,

and stampeded across the lands

[kkrrkashhh!]

they toppled cities,

destroyed kingdoms,

and k*lled thousands

the ohm could not be stopped

such rage did they feel

the ohm fought 'till they
died of starvation

then spores took root
in their corpses,

and the land soon became
part of the toxic jungle

that's why you do not
interfere with it

[Kurotowa]
silence you old hag!

we will have none
of your raving!

[Obaba]
oh you won't will you?!

how will you shut me up?!

will you k*ll me too?!

[Kurotowa]
ah! silence I said!

go ahead and k*ll me!

it will be easier for you to
k*ll an old blind woman

than it was for you to m*rder
our king Jihl!

[Mito] king Jihl!

[Valley man]
what?!! he was bedridden!!

- you murderers!!
- how could you!!

- you'd pay for this!!
- no!!

- we won't let you get away with this!!
- they k*lled the king!!

[Kurotowa] silence them!

no mercy for the insolent!

[Nausicaä!]
quiet everyone, please!!

I need everybody
to listen to me!

[crowd quiets down]

I can't bear to have
anyone else die

I beg of you

[Mito] princess...

[Nausicaä!]
Obaba, please understand

we need to do as theTolmekians say

[weeping and murmuring]

[engine whining]

[soldier]
come on! let's move!

let's move!

- heave!

- heave!

- heave!

- heave!!!

[soldier]
set it down over there!

let's go!

come on!

[Kushaha]
nice valley, I think
we should keep it

[Kurotowa]
I must object your highness

our orders are to transport
the giant warrior back

to tolmekia immediately

[Kushana]
those orders cannot
be carried out,

the giant warrior
is so heavy,

even our largest ship
couldn't transport it

[Kurotowa]
your highness, you can't
seriously want to stay here

and start a new kingdom?

[Kushana]
then what should I do?

you really think I should
deliver up that monster

as a plaything for those
fools back home?

[Kurotowa]
ah yes, I do see your point,

but I'm just a soldier of tolmekia,

I'm not in a position to
make that decision

[Kushana]
hmm, weasel

I'm reporting back to Pejite,

while I'm gone, begin to
awaken the warrior

[Kurotowa] right!

[Kushana]
they have a gunship?

[Kurotowa]
yes, an unexpected find
for such a quaint valley

[Kushana]
those are my orders,

I'll leave for Pejite first
thing in the morning

[Mito]
but, Kushana, why must the
princess go with you?

[Gol]
aren't five hostages, food
and the gunship enough?

[Kushana]
select your five hostages

and load up the cargo barge
before tomorrow's departure

[soldier] take it all!

[workers grunting]

we leave nothing here!

[Lord Yupa] Mito,

thank you for accompanying
the princess

[Mito]
no I'm glad to go,

but look at those greedy tolmekians,

they're stripping us of everything!

[Lord Yupa]
don't worry about that,

our only concern is that the
warrior staying dormant

I'm going to leave the valley,

then I'll slip back and
wait for my chance

[Mito] good luck

[knocking on door]

Nausicaä!

[door opened]

[door closed]

[scratching on wall]

Teto?

where has Nausicaä gone?

[Teto squeaking]

[wall opens]

[Teto squeaking]

[footsteps]

[gasps]

[water trickling]

[Teto grunting]

huh?!

Nausicaä!

what are you doing here?

this chamber is filled
with toxic plants!

[Nausicaä]
I collected the spores and grew
them down here myself

don't worry, the plants
aren't poisonous

[Lord Yupa]
they're not poisonous?

[sniffs]

its true the air is pure in here

but I know these plants
from the jungle,

these are some of
the most lethal

[Nausicaä]
I irrigated this chamber using water
drawn from deep underground

by the castle windmill

I used soil drawn from there as well

I found that with clean water and soil

the plants from the toxic jungle
aren't poisonous

all the poison is in the soil

even the topsoil on our
valley is polluted

but, I don't understand who could've
polluted the entire Earth?

[Lord Yupa]
you discovered this
all on your own?

[Nausicaä] yes,

I was hoping to find a cure
for father's illness,

but...

[sobs]

it's too late now,
I'm shutting down

I've already cut
off the water,

soon these plants
will wither and die

[sobbing]

[Lord Yupa] Nausicaä

[Nausicaä]
I'm afraid of myself lord Yupa

I had no idea that, my rage
could drive me to k*ll,

no more k*lling,
it has to stop!

[airship engines starting]

[engines humming]

[vwazhaam!]

[vwazhaamm!!]

[vwazhaawmmm!!!]

[feet shuffling]

[villagers murmuring]

[I hope she'd be safe]

[Nausicaä] oh my...

[little girl] yes!

[Nausicaä] thank you

I'll think of you when I eat them

[little girl]
we don't want you to go!

[soldier]

[Nausicaä]
alright, I must go now

theres no need to cry, I'll
be back very soon ok?

[little girl] you mean it?

[Nausicaä]

a promise to you?

- No

[gunship soaring]

[engine humming]

[engines roaring]

[Gol]
hey Niga, aren't we in Pejite yet?

[Gikkuri]
yeah! hurry it up my
back is k*lling me!

[Niga]
good lord! no wonder they send
you two off to be hostages,

all you do is complain!

[Gikkuri chuckles]

[Gol]
hey, doesn't this formation
seems strange?

why are we flying
so close together?

[Niga] yeah...

[Gol]
it is as if they fear an attack!

the air beneath the clouds must be
charged with poisonous gas...

huh?!

[gasps]

[Mito] what?
[royal guard] hey, sit down!

[gunship swooping down]

it's a gunship!

[gunship firing]

- [Pilot] enemy ship!
- we're under fire!

- your highness,
- they're attacking us!

[chrrak-vhwooom!]

- ahhh!

- aahhh!
- uhhh!

[alarm blaring]
- our number two ship
is going down!

[Gol]
what did I tell you?!

[Gikkuri]
this is terrible!

[chvaashh!!]

[shhkhoommm!!!]
- yahhh!!!
- Ohhh!!!

[Pilot 1] lookout!
- he's coming in from below!

[Pilot 2]
that's a Pejite gunship!

Pejite?!

[multiple g*nf*re]

[krrvwaaaooomm!!!]

[Pilot 1] no. three's been hit!
[gunner] signal from no. three!

they can't steer!
they can't steer!

[Pilot 2] where's our fighter plane?
[Mito] these are some flimsy ships.

[chvraashhkoomm!]

[gunner]
he's hit the rear guard!

huh?!!

the barge detached!

[gunship whizzing]

Teto come on!

[b*ll*ts hitting]

[soldiers] aahhh!!!

[g*ns firing]

[fires roaring, crackling]

[Mito]
we're going down, we
got to get out of here.

princess!

stop it!

all this k*lling must stop!!

[vhwoosh!!]

[g*ns firing]

you must stop!!!

[gasps]
[shreee-vwooshmmm!]

[braabraabksheoowhh!]

[brakah-kashaamm!]

[gasps]

[plummeting hum]

[Mito] princess!

[bwaammm!!]
hahhh!!

[engine failing]

ohh! aagghh! princess,
where are you going?!

[Nausicaä]
let's try the gunship!

[Mito] what?!

Mito, hurry up!

uh, right!

[fa-thud!]
uuhh!

[Nausicaä]
start the engine,

then we'll sh**t the door open!
[Mito] got it !

huh?!

come on!

hurry!

here, get in!

can we launch?!

[Mito] I hope so!

[Nausicaä]
open the throttle to full,
then fire the g*ns!

[Mito] roger!

[Nausicaä] ready?

now!!!

[bcheow!]

[bwaamm!!!]

[vweeoohh!!]

[brakashhkooom!!!]

[chweegh!]

[Nausicaä]
put on your masks!

I'm going below the clouds
to rescue the cargo barge!

[thrusters engaged]
- vwhooosshh!!!

[Nausicaä]
hold on Teto, don't die!

[Mito] look at this,

I've never seen the poison
this dense before!

[Nausicaä]
Mito, watch the starboard
side of the ship,

we should come across
the barge any minute!

[Mito] roger!

[Nausicaä]
It should still be gliding!

[Mito] there it is!!

down to the right!

[vwhaaooshhh!!!]

[hwwwhhoooshhh!!!]

- thdoosshh!!!

[men on barge]
- It's the princess! princess!
- princess Nausicaä!!

[Nausicaä] hold on!

I'll throw you a tow rope!

[Niga]
the towing hook broke!!

we can't be towed!!

[Gol]
I don't want to land this
thing in the jungle,

the insects will
eat us alive!!

[Gikkuri]
we'd rather jump
to our deaths!!

[Mito] calm down,

just dump the cargo, and
we'll help you land!!

[men on barge]
- farewell!
- it's been nice

- knowing you!!
[Mito] Listen to me,

just dump the cargo!!

[Nausicaä]
Mito, cut the rear engine!

[Mito] what?!

[Nausicaä]
just do as I say,

hurry!!

[Mito] alright!

[all gasps] huh?!

[Gol]
princess, what are you doing?!!

[Gol]
put on your mask!!

[Gikkuri] you'll die!!

[Muzu]
put it back on!!

[Nausicaä]
listen, please!!

dump your cargo and
glide down with us,

you'll be just fine!!

[Gol]
we'll do whatever you say!!!

- just put your mask on!!!

- hurry!!!
- do it now, please!!!

[Gol] look at her smiling

[Gikkuri]
she actually thinks we're
going to be okay

- hurry!
- hurry! Dump the cargo!

[Nausicaä]
start the engines, we'll look
for a place to land!

ackh! I inhaled some of that poison

[vwhaashhmm!!]

[shhreeeeee!!!]

[Gol] hurry it up!
[Gikkuri] this is so wasteful!

[Gol]
don't think about it just hurry!!

[insects buzzing]

[wings fluttering]

[bwawsshhh!]

[hwawsshhh!!]

[egress hatch opens]

[men on barge]
- what do we do?
- Princess!!

[Nausicaä] is everyone okay?!
- yeah?!
- we're fine!

[Kushana] don't move!

[all gasps]

[Gol] you!

thank you for rescuing
me Nausicaä

[Gol]
princess, you brought her
with you on purpose?

[Kushana]
you're too naive

you shouldn't think we're
best friends now,

just because you saved me

[Nausicaä] listen,

you don't understand the jungle

this is no place for g*ns,

if you fire that here,

the insects will descend
upon us in seconds

they're already enraged from all your
ships crashing into their jungle

look at them swarming

[insects buzzing]

[Nausicaä]
the giant dragonflies are
the sentries of the jungle

soon they'll summon hordes
of insects to this site,

we must get out of here now,

- bring me your extra rope, quickly!
- yes princess!

- Mito, repair their towing hook

[Mito] right!
[p*stol fired]

[b*llet ricochets]
- ohh!

[Kushana]
don't move, I'm the one
who gives the orders!

[Nausicaä]
what are you so afraid of?

you act like a scared
little fox-squirrel

[Kushana]
what did you call me?!

[Nausicaä]
don't be afraid,

theres nothing to fear,

I just want you to go back
to your own country

[Kushana]
how dare you talk
to me that way!

oh! ah!
[waves rumbling]

- whoah!

- a-ahh!
- oohh!

[waves rumbling]

[Nausicaä] they're here!

[burbling]

[kushana gasps]

[Nausicaä] stay calm,

whatever you do,
don't startle them

[Gikkuri]
we're in the middle
of an ohm nest!

[Gol]
[gasps] we're surrounded!

[Kushana shuddering]

they're examining us...

[Nausicaä] ohm!

please forgive us for
disturbing your nest!

we're very sorry!

we're not your enemies,
we mean you no harm!

[feelers whistling]

[shuddering]

- princess...
- [gasps]

[distant echo of child singing]

[little girl singing continues]

♪ la la la la la la la....

[singing fades]

Huh?! The pilot from Pejite!

he's still alive?!

ohm, wait!!

[water splashing]

[insects swarming]

[Gol]
huh, what's going on?

- their eyes are red with rage!
- aaahh!

[opening hatch]

[Gol]
princess, what in the world
do you think you're doing?

[Nausicaä]
take off as soon as
the waters are calm,

and wait for me above
the cloud line!

Mito, if I'm not back in one
hour, return to the valley!

[Mito] are you crazy?!

[Gol] princess no!!!

[loud splash]

[glider whizzing]

[Gikkuri]
the princess is gone...

[Mito]
why don't I take that for you?

all right,

let's do as the princess said!

she better be okay...

[bugs squealing]

[g*n firing]

[thud!]

uhh!

whoah!

I'm trapped !

[g*n clicking]

oh!

it's jammed!

ah-ahh!

aaahhh!!!

[gasps]

[bug screeching]

[glider swooping]

uhh!

ahh!

[Pejite boy]
who are you?

[Nausicaä]
you've done far too much k*lling

my insect charm and flash grenades
won't do any good now

[roaring]

[mandibles clashed]
- krrching!

[thud]

a-ahh!!

[thump]

[screeching]

[carapace rattling]

[crumbling]

[groaning]

[gasps]

quicksand!

[grunting]

No!

[gasping]

[buzzing]

[engine roaring]

[Gikkuri]
It's already been two hours

[Gol]
more insects keep
coming by the minute

[Gikkuri]
Princess, where are you?!

princess!!!

[King Jihl] Nausicaä

Nausicaä!

come here!

[child singing fading in]

come here child!

[young Nausicaä!] father!

[child singing continue]

mother's here too?

wait, don't go this way!

stay away!

ahh!

get back, there's nothing here!
stay away from me, please go!

[clicking]

get back inside!

[Gol]
[gasps] she's got a baby ohm

[King Jihl]
the insects have bewitched her

hand it over child

[young Nausicaä!]
No! It hasn't done anything wrong

[King Jihl]
insects and humans cannot
live in the same world,

you know that

[ohm clicking]
[young Nausicaä screams]

[King Jihl] you knew that...

[young Nausicaä] don't k*ll it!

please, don't k*ll it!

please...

[sobbing]

[Teto squeaking]
[singing stopped]

[sound of water rushing]

Teto

...what a strange place...

[feet running]

[Pejite boy] hey!

I found your glider!

how are you feeling?

[Nausicaä]
where are we?

[Pejite boy]
I should introduce myself first

I'm Asbel, from the land of Pejite

I'd like to thank you for saving me

I'm Nausicaä, I'm from
the Valley of the Wind

what is this place?

[laughs]

you're not going to believe this

we're actually beneath the toxic jungle

[Nausicaä]
beneath the jungle?

[Asbel]
yeah, see that?

We fell through that hole up there,

along with a bunch of sand

[Nausicaä]
[Gasps] How can we be breathing
without our masks?

[Asbel]
I don't know, somehow the
air down here is clean

I couldn't believe it either,

I never dreamed the toxic jungle
could be like this

what's wrong?

[Teto squealing]

[Asbel]
Nausicaä, don't wander off too far!

what a magnificent tree

[echoing burbling and plopping]

it's dead, but water's still
flowing through it

[fffsshhhh!]

[twing!]

this is like the sand from
the bottom of our well

it looks like these trees must die and
fossilize, and then crumble into sand

[Asbel] Nausicaä?

are you crying?

[Nausicaä] mmh,

It's okay though,

I'm just happy

[hhfffffshhh!]

[Asbel]
can't believe she's dead,
Lastel was my twin sister

I wish I could have
been there for her

[Nausicaä]
I'm sorry, I was too late to save her

[Asbel] no,

I apologize,

you took care of my sister
while she was dying,

and I just shot down your ship

[Nausicaä] it's ok

[Asbel]
so, the giant warrior's in the
Valley of the Wind now

[crackling]

ugh!

these nuts taste awful,
what are they?

[Nausicaä]
they're called chiko nuts, they're
supposed to be good for you

[crackling]

[crackling]

[Asbel sounding disgusted]
why is it everything that's good
for you tastes so bad?

[giggling]

[water rushing]

[Asbel]
what's the origin of the jungle?

you sure spend a lot of time
thinking about strange things

[Nausicaä]
the trees of the toxic jungle must've
evolved to purify the Earth of all

the pollution that we
humans have made

the trees absorb the pollution
so it becomes inert,

then they die and petrify and then
crumble into purified sand,

that's how these underground
caverns must've been formed

and the insects, they evolved
to guard this place

[Asbel]
if that's true, then mankind
is destined to go extinct

it'll take centuries for these
trees to cleanse the Earth,

we can't survive with
insects that long

somehow,

we are going to have to find a way to
stop this toxic jungle from spreading

[Nausicaä]
you Pejites sound just
like the Tolmekians

[Asbel] what?!

we are nothing like those
bloodthirsty Tolmekians!

we'd never use the warrior
as a weapon!

[Nausicaä]
let's get some sleep, Asbel

we'll need our strength to
make it to Pejite tomorrow

[steam hissing]

[throbbing]

[soldier] all is well sir
[Kurotowa] Fine, fine

[throbbing continue]

[Kurotowa] everything going smoothly?
[technician] yes sir!

- the warrior's torso is almost
fully developed!

[organic mass pulsating]

[Kurotowa]
I swear, the more I gaze at you,
the more attractive you get

you're awakening long-forgotten ambitions,
even in a lazy old soldier like me

eww, is that a smile?

perhaps you should remain buried
deep beneath the Earth after all

[royal guard] Sir!
[Kurotowa] Mm?

[royal guard]
Her Highness's fleet was attacked
by a survivor from Pejite

all but one of her ships were destroyed

[Kurotowa]
what happened to her Highness?

[royal guard]
according to our reports,

her ship exploded in midair

[soldier]
how shall we proceed sir?

[Kurotowa]
do the villagers know that their
princess's ship went down?

[royal guard] No, sir.
[Kurotowa] good, keep it that way

continue working as if
nothing has changed

[soldiers]
- yes sir!

[Kurotowa]
so, is this lowly soldier finally on
the path to fame and fortune?

or on the path to destruction...

[boy]
Lord Yupa, Mito and the
others are back,

[boy2]
they're all waiting for you
at the Acid Lake

[boy] down there!

[Mito]
we shouldn't have returned
without the princess

[Lord Yupa]
no, I'm glad that all
of you are safe

[Kushana]
you're letting me go?

[Lord Yupa]
yes, granted that you drown the
giant warrior in the Acid Lake,

and then return to your kingdom

you have very few soldiers
left in the Valley,

we could easily defeat
your forces now,

but I see no point
in further k*lling

[Kushana]
the warrior can't be drowned
or destroyed,

and until it walks on its own,
it can't be moved

don't you understand? It's too late,
there's no turning back now

I was ordered to attack Pejite
because we feared another

kingdom would get ahold
of the warrior's power

once its existence is known,

all the remaining kingdoms will send
their armies here to claim it

you really only have one
choice lord Yupa,

revive the giant warrior,

use it to repel the invading kingdoms,

and learn to live with the monster

[clanking!]

look
[krrekk]

[krrchingg]

[all gasps]

[Lord Yupa]
an insect did that?

[Kushana] that's right,

and whatever lucky man becomes my
husband will see worse than that!

the insects must be stopped,

you must revive the warrior and use
it to destroy them and their jungle!

steal it from us as
we stole it from Pejite

that's what I'd
do if I were you

[klakhting!]

[Lord Yupa]
no, we will keep the warrior
dormant as it was meant to be

[kid]
[panting] Lord Yupa!

emergency! -
[Kid2] hey wait, you gotta
give us the password

I'm in a hurry! -

- Wind?

Valley! -

- okay

some of the spores survived! -

[Mito]
what?! In the valley?

they're spreading poison everywhere,
the whole valley's in a panic!

[crowd agitated]
[leaves rustling]

[valley folk]
- please! we need to do something!
- don't be foolish!

- before it's too late!
- hurry!

[valley man]
if we don't do something fast,

the whole valley will
be destroyed!

- the spores are spreading fast!!

[royal guard]
if we give them tools
to burn the spores,

they could use them
against us instead

[Kurotowa]
we have no choice,

hand over everything
but their g*ns

[royal guard] yes sir!

[captain]
sir, the ship is ready to depart

[kurotowa]
try not to fail this time

assemble all the Tolmekian
soldiers left in Pejite

and bring them to the Valley

[captain] yes sir!

[Kurotowa] what a mess,

this is starting to look bad already

- this way!
- come on! Hurry

- Let's go! Let's go!

[engine starting]

[Gol]
good luck finding the princess

[Lord Yupa]
take care of the valley,

and don't do anything rash
while we're gone!

[all]
yes sir!!

[engine roaring]

[Gol]
come on, let's get back
to the valley!

[crowd shouting]
[torch blowing]

[grunting]

[valley man] check it!

[valley man2] oh, no!

we're too late, the spores have
infested the entire tree!

[valley man3]
this one's infested too!

[valley woman] this way!

- get out of the way!
hey! -

[royal guard]
what do you think
you're doing?!

[woman grunting]

[woman 2]
oh no, it's everywhere!

- Obaba!

[Obaba]
this forest is doomed

we must burn it down

if we hesitate, the toxic jungle
will engulf the entire valley

[valley man]
isn't there some other way?

this forest has protected the valley from
the jungle's poisons for 300 years

[valley man2]
if only the Tolmekians
had never come

[Gol]
it looks like things are
getting out of control

we better get back there fast!

[clicks]

[clanking]

[wind howling]

[inaudible speech]

[Asbel] you think so?

everything looks the same to me

[Nausicaä]
the insects have left the jungle...

...what's going on? my heart's
pounding like crazy...

[Asbel]
hey, we're almost there!

Pejite's just over that mountain

[wind howling]

[glider whizzing]

[sshwoooshh!]

[Asbel]
something strange is going on

what's that haze over there?

[Nausicaä]
Asbel, put your mask on!

[Asbel] the insects,

they're all dead

[Nausicaä]
we've got to get to Pejite

[Asbel] be careful,

the Tolmekian army
could still be there

[fires crackling]

[gasps]

[Nausicaä] a dead ohm

[Asbel]
and the capital's been destroyed

Pejite is finished,

it was far too much to pay, even if it did
get the Tolmekians out of our city

[Nausicaä]
"Too much to pay" ?

Asbel, what are you
talking about?

[engine humming]

[Nausicaä] an airship

[Asbel]
it's one of ours, they're
landing let's go!

[screeching]

[Pejite chief] Asbel!

you're still alive!

[Asbel]
what have you done to our city?

it's completely destroyed!

[Pejite chief]
don't worry, we can rebuild it

and if the jungle starts
to spread here,

- we'll burn it off
- [Pejite man] Asbel!

[Asbel]
with what? the giant warrior isn't here

[Pejite chief] we know,

it's in the Valley of the Wind

[Asbel]
how do you know that?

[Pejite chief]
[chuckles] we've already made
plans to get it back

our plan is being ex*cuted as we speak

all the Tolmekians in the Valley
will be dead by...

[Asbel] what!?

[Nausicaä]
what are you planning
to do to my valley?!

[Pejite chief]
Asbel, who is this?

[Asbel]
she's the princess of the
Valley of the Wind,

and she saved my life

- [All gasp]
- the Valley of the Wind?

[Nausicaä]
tell me, what is gonna happen?!

Asbel, you know what the
plan is you have to tell me

[Asbel]
we're going to bait insects
into the valley

[gasps]

[Nausicaä]
so you lured the insects
here into Pejite?

[sobs]

what a monstrous thing to do

[Pejite chief]
we have to get the giant warrior out
of the hands of the Tolmekians

no matter what it takes

[Pejite man]
we're doing this for the
good of the planet,

you've got to understand

[Nausicaä]
Ahh! the good of the planet?
you're k*lling my people!

don't do this, I beg you! please,
please, stop this now!

[Pejite man] It's too late

[Pejite chief]
once the insects start stampeding,
they can't be stopped

the Tolmekians nearly k*lled off all
our people, they must be stopped!

we have no other choice

Stop her!

- Stop her!
- Grab her!

[Nausicaä] let me go!

Ahh, let me go!

[Pejite chief]
things may seem bad to
you now, princess,

but once we have the warrior,
we'll burn the jungle,

and take back the Earth

[Nausicaä]
you savages, you're just as
bad as the Tolmekians!

[Pejite chief]
you're wrong, the Tolmekians
want to take over the world!

[Nausicaä]
listen, every one of us relies
on water from the wells

because mankind has polluted
all the lakes and rivers

but do you know why the
well water is pure?

the trees of the wasteland purify it

and you plan to burn
the trees down?

you must not burn down
the toxic jungle!

you should have left the giant warrior
beneath the Earth!

[Pejite chief]
so what should we do?

surrender and become the
sl*ves of the Tolmekians?

[Nausicaä]
don't you understand?!

Asbel tell them how
the jungle evolved,

and how the insects
are guarding it

so that we won't pollute
the world again

Asbel, please?

[Pejite chief]
oof! what are you doing?!
[g*n clicks]

[Asbel]
just stay right there,

let go of the princess, now!

[Pejite chief]
calm down, Asbel

[g*nf*re] ptang!

[Asbel] let her go!!

I mean it!!

Nausicaä, go back and
warn your people!

[thwogg!]
uhh!

[Nausicaä] ahh!

Asbel!!

let me go!!

[breathing heavily]

uhh!

[distant g*nshots]

[shouting, screaming]

[Kushana]
what a bunch of fools

[Gol]
I can't wait to beat the tar
out of those Tolmekians

[Gikkuri]
I thought we said we wouldn't
do anything rash?

[Kurotowa]
don't panic, just rescue the
soldiers with the tanks

- yes sir!

- sir, the villagers just k*lled our
last soldier on the field!

[Kurotowa]
are they heading for the castle?

- not yet,

but more of them keep gathering

[Kurotowa]
all this over a little forest,

they're as annoying as the Pejites,

if they just calmed d...

[grunting]

[soldiers] look out!
- huh?!
[grenades clinking]

[ka-boom!]
- aaahhh!

- uhh?

[whomp!]
- uahhh!

[Kurotowa]
they hijacked our tank!

[Gol]
get this thing moving!

[Niga]
I'm going, don't rush me

[soldier] fire!

[Gikuri]
Here they come!

- forward! -

[soldiers hutting]

[Gol]
come on, come on let's go!

[Niga]
maybe it's this one

[engine whining]
hey, it's doing something!

[Gikkuri]
Niga, where are you going?!

[gasps]

[screaming]

[g*ns firing]

[brrgaassh!!]

[Gol]
what do you think you're doing?!

go forward!

[Niga]
I know, I know

[grrrkkhshh!!]

[krakaashh!!!]

[soldiers shouting]

[stop them!]

[Kurotowa]
they're getting away, send
out all the tanks!

huh?!

- your highness!
- ten hut!

[Kurotowa]
...she's alive...

well that dream didn't last long

your Highness!

[weeeoooo!]

[bwaamm!!]
- aa-aahhh!!!

[Gikkuri]
we'll hold off the troops,

you round up the villagers and
seek shelter by the Acid Lake!

- right, let's go!

- come on!

[Muzu]
we just have to lie low until the
princess returns in the gunship

[panting, gasping]

- don't slow down, come on!
- you can make it, keep moving!

[Gol]
don't just stand there,
give me a hand

[Gikkuri]
but I have a bad back

[blaamm!!]

[Gikkuri]
eyaagh! get us out of here!

the tanks are coming!!!

[engines whirring]

[Gikkuri] you're just turning in circles!
[Niga] I know,

- Go forward!
- I know!

thoomm!

[bwaamm!]
- gyaahh!!!

[Gikkuri] we're hit!!

thoomm!!

thooommm!!

[engine humming]

[alarm blaring]

[captain]
what do you got, soldier?

[gunner]
it's a ship from Pejite!

I caught a glimpse of it just
beyond those clouds!

[captain] good work!

[engine humming]

[guard]
careful, she's a wild one

[door unlocks]

[creaking]

[Pejite woman]
quickly now

[Teto squeaks]

Nausicaä, we're going to
get you out of here

so you can warn the
people of the valley

there may still be enough time
if you take your glider

it's ready and waiting for you

Asbel told me everything
that has happened

[Pejite girl]
I'm going to be taking
your place princess,

put this on

[Nausicaä]
but, who are you?

[Pejite woman]
I'm Asbel and Lastel's mother

[gasps]

[Nausicaä]
you're their mother

[Asbel's mother] ohh!

please forgive us,

what our people did
was horribly wrong

[Pejite girl] hurry!

[Nausicaä]
what will happen to her?

[Asbel's mother]
don't worry, she'll be fine

[women murmuring]

[Pejite woman]
please be careful

[elder woman]
and forgive us for the way
you've been treated

[Asbel] Nausicaä, this way!
[Pejite woman] here!

[Asbel] hurry!

[Pejite women]
- be careful
- we're sorry

[Nausicaä]
thank you everyone!

[women]
- good luck,
- take care

[Asbel]
I'm sorry it took me so long

can you launch from here?

[Nausicaä] I'll try

[gears turning]

the Tolmekians!

[b*ll*ts hitting]

[Pejite chief]
get us out of here,

head for the clouds!

[gunner] cease fire!

they'll never survive,

it's a pilot's worst nightmare
in those clouds!

[thunder crashing]

[pilot]
this is suicide! I can't steer!

[women and children screaming]

[thunder crash]

[metal ripping]
- krrching! zhting!

[Asbel]
the storm is tearing
the ship apart!

[Pejite chief]
it's no use! our only hope is to get out
of these clouds and fight back!

[engine humming from above]

[pilot] daaahh!
[Pejite chief] They expected this!

[engines buzzing]

[Asbel]
look, what are they doing?

[Nausicaä]
Oh no! they're trying to
pin us against the clouds

so they can board our ship!

[wind slam]

[metal clashing]

[soldiers grunting]

[soldier] open it up!!

[Asbel]
they're coming in,

you got to get out of here now!

[Nausicaä]
I can't just leave you like this!

or your mother, or the girl who
took my place in the cell

you need all the help you can get!

[Asbel]
you have to save the
people of the valley,

please!

go, or my people will never
forgive themselves!
[kkra-aashh!]

[both gasping]

[blades clashing]

[captain] take the ship,

I want every Pejite dead, now!

[grunting]

[Nausicaä] huh?!

[blades swishing]

[Asbel]
go, Nausicaä, go!!

[thud!]

[Nausicaä] Asbel!!

[whizzing]

[jets blasting]
bwooosshh!

[Mito]
there's the princess!!

[Nausicaä] Mito!!

[gunship fires]
brraattt!

[gasps]

va-kooomm!!
- aa-ahhh!!

[Mito] hahaaah!!!

[vrreeeeooohhmm!]

[bwakhoom!]

[Nausicaä]
Mito, lord Yupa! the
Valley is in danger!!

[Mito] princess!!

[Nausicaä]
hurry, hurry, please!!

[Mito]
I'll send out the docking hook now!

lord Yupa, pull the red
lever on your right!

[bashing]

[grunting]

[captain]
why is this taking so long?

knock it down!

[baby crying]
[murmuring]

[Asbel]
this door's gonna bust
any second now

[Pejite chief]
fine, let them break it down

we must fight them with
honor and with dignity

[Pejite girl]
what's behind us?

a bird?

[soldier]
look, a gunship from the
Valley of the Wind!

[captain] what?!

[fwsshhh]

- uhh!

- ahh!

[krsschiiing!]

- get 'im! aahh!

[blades clashing]

ttwiiing!

- ah-aahh!!

[captain] it's lord Yupa,

k*ll him and you'll be famous!

- eyaaahhh!!

[blades clashing]

[chwikk!]

[Lord Yupa]
I suggest you surrender,

there's no ship coming to rescue you

[captain] this guy's tough

[ffwoooshh!]

[engine humming]

[Mito]
this is way too fast!!

the engine's gonna burn out!!

[Nausicaä]
I don't care, as long as it holds
out until we get to the valley!

Increase speed!

please dear God, please
hear this prayer,

you must protect the
people of the valley!

[wind howling]

[murmuring]

[coughing]

[soldier]
- I don't like this waiting game...

- check your weapons!

[Kurotowa]
well this is dull, are they
ever going to budge?

[Kushana]
they're waiting for their
princess to return

[Kurotowa]
the princess?

[Kushana]
they expect her to come back
here and rescue them,

with their gunship

[Kurotowa]
that gunship could be a
real pain in the neck,

should we start a fight now
and avoid the mess?

[Kushana]
do you know anything about that
old ship they're hiding in?

[Kurotowa]
I've heard it was built before
the Seven Days of Fire

I don't know if its true but it's supposed
to have traveled everywhere,

even to the stars

they say g*ns can't
penetrate its armor,

but I bet if you hit it just right...

[Kushana]
no, we're going to wait
for the princess

[Kurotowa] what?

[Kushana]
I want to see if she can
make it back alive

from the middle of the jungle,

If she's not dead,

I'd like a chance to
get to know her

so men, have you made
up your minds yet?

if you advise the villagers to
surrender, I'll let you go

or would you rather
end up like Pejite?

[Gikkuri]
it's strange that you're
a princess too

you're not anything at
all like our princess

[Gol]
ehh, take a look
at my hands

I have the same illness as King Jihl

six months from now, my hands
will be as hard as rocks

but our princess told me
that she truly loves

these beat-up old
hands of mine,

when she looks
at these hands,

she knows these are the
hands of a hard worker

[Kushana]
how can you be so foolish?
the jungle is k*lling you

yet you want to live in
harmony with it?

[Gikkuri]
you plan to burn down the jungle,

but we've learned to use fire
only in small amounts

[Gol]
that's right, too much fire
gives birth to nothing

fire can reduce a forest
to ashes in a day,

while it takes the water and the wind
a hundred years to grow one anew

[Gikkuri]
we prefer the ways of the
water and the wind

[Niga]
the princess will be devastated when
she sees that our forest is gone

[soldier]
sir, do we have any
orders yet sir?

[Kurotowa] just shut up

[soldier] yes sir!

[Kurotowa]
something must have happened,

because she's starting to
look kinda cute to me

[Kushana]
Kurotowa!

prepare the troops to attack!

[Kurotowa] what!?

we're not gonna wait?

[Kushana]
we'll begin the attack in one hour

so get the troops fed
and ready to go

[Kurotowa]
ah yes food, plenty of time
for a leisurely meal

[Valley man]
- someone's comin'!

[Gol gasps]

[Gikkuri]
Gol, what's wrong?

[Gol]
the wind has died

[Gikkuri]
there's no wind?

I don't believe it, it's never
stopped before!

[Obaba agitated]
aa-ahhh!

[little girl]
Obaba, what's the matter?

[Valley woman]
are you okay?

[Obaba] someone,

someone take me outside

something is very wrong!

[all gasps]

[girl in red cap]
the wind has stopped blowing

[high-pitched ringing]

[girl in green tunic]
Obaba, what's making
my ears hurt?

[Obaba]
it's in the air, the atmosphere
is saturated with anger!

[engine humming]

[Nausicaä] we're close!

[Mito]
we've cleared the jungle, three
minutes to the Acid Lake!

[Nausicaä]
Idle the engines,

drop beneath the clouds!

[Mito]
princess, what's that red glow?

[Nausicaä] ohm!

[bellowing]

[Mito]
look at them all,

every ohm in the jungle is headed
straight for the valley!

[Nausicaä]
what's making them
stampede like that?

huh?!

something out there is
calling to the herd

Mito, pull the ship
up to the left!

[Mito] roger!

[Nausicaä] what's that?

Mito, send out a flare!

ready?

Fire!!

[bchoomm!]

[flare whistling]

[thoomm-krzzzt!]

[Mito]
what the heck is that?!

[gasps]

[bug clicking]

[Nausicaä]
no, they've got a baby ohm!

they're using the baby to lure
the herd into the valley!

[Mito]
I'll blast them out of the sky!

[Nausicaä] No!!

don't sh**t, Mito! don't sh**t!!

[Mito]
what do you mean don't sh**t?!

[Nausicaä]
if we k*ll the baby ohm, there'll be
no way to stop the stampede!

[Mito]
what are we supposed to do?

I can't just sit here and watch
our valley be destroyed!

[Nausicaä]
don't worry Mito,

I'll get the baby ohm back
to the herd, just trust me

[groaning]
uhnnn...

nahh!
[brrkasshh!]

[Mito]
hey, what are you doing?!

[Nausicaä]
go warn the valley!

uhh!
[thsskhhwtt!]

[Mito] but princess,

you don't even have a weapon!

[gasps]

[murmuring]
- are those engines? -
[clearing throat]

[soldier]
that flare is not one of
ours, your Highness

[Kushana]
what's the range?

[soldier]
approximately twenty leagues
just the other side of the lake

[Kushana]
is it the princess's g*n ship?

[Kurotowa] most likely

[flare whistling]

[explodes]

- flare!
[fweeeeoooohh!]

[thoomm!]

[Kurotowa]
yes, that's their distress signal,

it's the gunship, all right

[Kushana]
hour's up, Kurotowa, let's go

[Kurotowa]
sure you don't want to wait?

[Kushana]
no, I have chosen the bloody path

[chvrroommm!]

- infantry, move out!

[troops hutting]

[Kurotowa]
won't you go in?

[Kushana]
I'm staying right here

- the gunship!

- fire!!

[Kushana]
hold your fire!

you idiot, stop it!

- It's the princess' gunship!
- Princess!

[Kushana]
wait for my orders,
hold your fire!!

[Kurotowa]
Your Highness, wahh!

[Kushana]
what happened to the princess?

[Gol]
yeah, where is she?

[Gukkiri]
shouldn't she be in the back seat?

[Mito]
listen up, a herd of ohm
was coming this way

[Gol] they're what?!

- the ohm?!

[Mito]
the princess stayed behind to
try to stop the stampede

from reaching the valley!

this is no time for a battle,

everybody, get to high ground, hurry!

[Kurotowa] wahh!

[little girl]
Obaba, I see a red glow in the distance

it keeps getting bigger!

it's coming this way!

[Obaba]
just hold on tight to Obaba children,

the ohm will come, there's
nothing we can do about it

- quickly!

[Niga]
don't panic, just keep
moving forward,

- there is still time
- hurry!

[elderly woman]
but Mito, we're going to die anyway

we should die in the valley

[Mito]
no, as long as the princess
hasn't given up,

we can't either!

[Kushana]
hold the ohm off for
as long as possible

I'll be back with help

[Kurotowa]
your Highness, don't do it!

it's not ready yet!

[Kushana]
if not now, Kurotowa, then when?

move out!

[engine whining]

[b*ll*ts zipping]

[Nausicaä]
don't sh**t!! listen to me, please!!!

[sssshh!]

[woooshh!!!]

[bwakaa!]

[fthoom! fthoom! fthoom!]

[bksheoowhh!!!]

[Pejite man]
she flies like the wind!

[younger Pejite]
I think she's trying to
tell us something,

maybe we shouldn't sh**t her

[older Pejite]
anyone who interferes with
the plan is an enemy

besides, if we don't release this
baby ohm in the valley soon,

we'll be the ones in trouble

here she comes, wait till she
gets close, and then fire

[younger pejite] huh?!

[older pejite]
she's in range, sh**t her!

[younger pejite] I can't!

it's Lastel...

[older pejite] Move it!

[Nausicaä ] aagh!

ahh!

[older pejite] daahhh!!

[sshwoosh!]

[ba-thud!]

[tsschwaang!]

[brrgaassh!!]
[Nausicaä ] aahh!!

[Teto squeaking]

[Nausicaä groaning]

[ohm clicking]

[fwssshh!]

[Nausicaä ] ohm,

[groaning]

[buzzing]

I'm not gonna hurt you,

don't be frightened

I'm not your enemy

[sobbing]

I'm so sorry

is there any way
you can forgive us?

how we've treated
you so badly

[bellowing]

[shhssss!]

no,

n-no, don't move,
you'll bleed to death!

come on, be a good boy, hold still!

[gasps]

[distant rumbling]

[Pejite man]
oh no! they've found us!

[younger pejite]
uh-they're coming this way!

[Nausicaä ]
no, you can't go in this lake
with wounds like that!

this water's bad!

it's filled with acid!

[splash! hisss!]

eeaahhh!!!

[groaning]

[ohm clicking buzzing]

[thud!]
- uhh!

- aahh!
[Teto squeaking]

[vibrating hum]

ohm,

[sobbing]

you're so kind

it's gonna be all right

soon they'll be here
to take you home

huh? where are they going?

how can they be
turning away?

ohm, not that way! you're headed
straight for the valley!

they must be blind with rage

if I can't find a way to calm them

[boom!]

[gasps]

[rockets fired]

[kkthoomm!]

[bwakaamm!]

[bwakaamm!]

[laughing]

those idiots!

they're drawing the
ohm with their fire

[younger pejite]
we're gonna live

[older pejite]
come on, let's get out of here,
help me tip this over

wait!

No!, n-no don't sh**t!

don't sh**t!

[Nausicaä]
you're gonna fly me back to the herd

and we're gonna give their
baby back to them

[older pejite]
there's no reason to try to
pull a stunt like that

it's too late, the herd won't stop

[bratatatatat!]
- daahh!! ahh!!

[Nausicaä]
you'll take us there and you'll set
us down in front of the herd

now, let's get going!

[younger pejite]
but there's no way you'll survive

fire! fire!
[thoomm! thoomm! thoomm!]

Fire!!!
[thooomm!]

[distant explosions]
[crowd murmuring]

[little girl in red cap]
Obaba, are we all going to die?

[Obaba]
if that is to be our fate, we
can only wait and see

[Kurotowa]
they don't even flinch

[soldier]
I think we should retreat, sir

[Kurotowa]
don't be stupid soldier, there's
nowhere to retreat to

[clank!]

[royal guards]
- let's go, let's go

[Kurotowa]
hey, hold your position!

wait! Hold it!

stand your ground until her
highness returns!

where is she? huh?!
your highness!

[tank approaches]

[growling]

[soldiers]
- ah, the giant warrior!

- It's him!
- is it intact?!

- it's the warrior! -

[All cheering]
alright!!!

- Now we got 'em!!!

- the warrior!
- it's the giant warrior!

[Kurotowa]
ahh, it's falling apart!

I knew it was too soon

[Kushana] incinerate them!

what are you waiting for?

were you not designed
to be the most

evil creature on the face of the Earth!

[roaring]

[fsshzaaamm!]

[tsshkrraakooommm!!!]

[all screaming]

[rumbling]

[Kurotowa] amazing, no wonder
the world was incinerated

- hail to her highness Kushana!!! -

[clicking, bellowing]

[Kushana] hit them again!

listen to me warrior,

fire on my command!

[grrrwaahrrr!]

[kzzthwiing!]

[vwhaammm!]

[hissing]

[soldiers screaming]

- run!
[spplooogghh!!!]

- it's dead!

- No!
- but...

- we're doomed!
- oh no!

run!!!

[soldiers screaming]

[girl in red cap]
the giant warrior died

[Obaba]
that's the way it should be

the anger of the ohm reflects
the anger of the Earth

the Earth knows it's wrong
for us to survive

if we have to depend on
a monster like that

[little girl] it's the princess!

[little girl 2] the princess is back!

[shrshhh]

- princess!
- what is she doing?

- she'll be k*lled!

[swarm roaring]
[rumbling]

[thud!]

[gasping]
[shuddering]

[krrkaashh!!]

[krrgiisshh!!]

- ohhhh!!

[crashing]

[ggrrkshkrrmmm!!!]

[screaming]

[bellowing roaring]
[rumbling]

[engine humming]

[Lord Yupa]
look the color's changing,
their rage is subsiding

[gasping]

[Obaba]
the rage, it's left the atmosphere

[Mito]
we're okay,

the ohm have stopped running

[all gasps]
[little girl] there's the princess!

she's dead Obaba, she's dead

[Obaba]
the princess has quieted
the rage of the ohm

she gave her life to save the valley

[weeping, shuddering]

- look!

- over there!

- aahh!

[Kurotowa] what is this?

what are these lights?

[distant echo of child singing]

♪ la la la la la la la...

Teto

[young ohm clicking]

I'm glad you're okay.

ohm, thank you

thank you

[Gol] ah, it's a miracle!

[Obaba]
what beautiful creatures!

who knew how wonderful and
caring the ohm could be?

children,

look carefully and tell me what
these blind eyes cannot see

[little girl]
the princess is wearing a blue dress
that I've never seen before

it looks like she's walking
through a golden field

"...after a thousand years
of darkness, He will come,

clad in blue and surrounded
by fields of gold!...ohh"
[weeping]

[little girl]
what's the matter?

[Obaba]
the legend has come true!

- look there!

- the glider!

- there's wind!

- the wind has come back!

[cheering shouting]

[gasps]

[all laughing]
