| Blue Submarine No. 6 |
| Wallpaper Description: |
The OVA starts out with patrol planes dropping sonar buoys into the ocean, searching for an enemy vessel, the Ghost Ship, commanded by Verg, a shark-type hybrid. A nearby patrolling submarine named the Shang 9 (an SSGN type submarine) received messages citing that a potential threat has been spotted, and goes to battle stations.
In a near-by city, decimated by the rising tides, a young female officer named Mayumi Kino and a fellow sailor Mouse are on a mission to re-recruit Tetsu Hayami, An elite cadet at the Naval Academy; he was involved in the development of the Grampus (smaller, two person crew submarine capable of short and long range combat. The shape of its dorsal-like fins can be manipulated to strike at its target) during his years at the academy. He refused to rejoin Blue Fleet, and Mayami radioed in their non-success. Meanwhile, the creature that was spotted earlier in the episode (later identified as a Musuca) shielded in a large white tube-like shield, prowls the sunken city streets and launched several Umigumo, large crab-like robots that attack with large pincer-claws that holster cannons and many hundred anti-aircraft rounds. While they conduct their attack- starting with the destruction of two destroyers- they broadcast a message from Zorndyke stating that \"resistance is futile\", similar to Star Trek's Borg. Kino attempted to get aboard a cutter to return to Blue 6's port, but unfortunately they were blown out of the water. She and her fellow sailor spot an elderly woman who was stranded. Mouse shoulders her, and they become surrounded by Umigumo. Hayami reappears with his own speed boat, and guns down the two Umigumo, rescuing Kino and the other two.
Blue 6 departs her berth, and sets out to sea. Kino, Hayami, Mouse, and the old woman all board the sub, and the fight begins. The Musuca's bubbling white shield is shattered, and the creature is revealed to be a large sentient deformed looking whale. It released more Umigumo, and Kino and Hayami depart in a Grampus, an underwater robot that converts into a submarine speeder, to fight the Umigumo.
A daring undersea battle commences, with the Blue 6 destroying the Musuca with the help of the Shang, whose CO is revealed to be a personal friend of Blue 6's captain.
Hayami destroyed all of the Umigumo, with the final emerging from the water and landing on a beach. Hayami pursued it with a small detachable robot, and sprayed it with bullets. He dismounts, and approached the device which opened up to reveal a woman-like creature who emerges, and Hayami returns the creature to the water after arguing with Kino over what to do with it.
The episode concludes with Kino and Hayami discussing what they have witnessed in the past day. Out at sea, Verg, a shark-like young man in command of the Ghost or Phantom Ship- a submersible battleship mounted on a colossal Whale shark-like entity- shells the city from afar. Cool bluesy jazz music and credits ensue.
A massive undersea battle ensues, with many twists and turns. Six’s captain (apparently the man responsible for the other subs) orders all ships to \"...fight to the death\" to protect \"Sub Zero\". Several volleys of torpedo and anti-torpedo weaponry are exchanged as each side seeks to gain the upper hand in the battle. Hayami and Kino take the Six's Grampus out to confront Zorndyke, with Hayami busting his friend, now an aquatic hybrid, out of the storage chamber that was stored on the Six (They used his knowledge to penetrate the Antarctic's passages, and in exchange he keeps Zorndyke's creatures away from the Grampus), and he is freed into the ocean. Hayami sees him off one last time as they sped away.
Meanwhile, the Atlantic Fleet engages Zorndyke’s forces on the other side of the Antarctic in an effort to draw as many enemy forces away from the Pacific Fleet as is possible. This results in the probable annihilation of the Atlantic Fleet, as the overwhelming number of submarines- including the Altantic Fleet’s admiral’s flagship- are destroyed.
After several battles, Sub Zero, with the nuclear missiles, was forced to surface, but Six after a series of battles, managed to destroy Verg's \"Ghost Ship\", losing the rest of the fleet; except Three, which acted as a decoy. Six's captain and 1st officer prepare to remotely authorize the nuclear barrage into Zorndyke's territory.
Hayami and Kino landed in the Arctic, transformed by Geothermal energy into a small paradise, and meet Zorndyke face to face, who reveals his plans for a pole shift- the reverse of the Earth's magnetic field, which would eliminate humanity. We learn that he can no longer power the machines to conduct the pole shift, and that if Blue Fleet launches her nuclear weapons, the machines with be super-powered and the pole shift will begin. The machines, interestingly enough, use Zorndyke's own heart as a passcode.
Kino confronts Zorndyke with Hayami's pistol, but after a bit of tense standoff, Kino was not able to kill Zorndyke, and thus, saved the world. Zorndyke then asked Hayami to pass on to the Blue fleet... Leave the Poles and this ocean (?) to his 'children', and there can be co-existence between his 'children' and the humans.
Verg- who survived the sinking of his \"Ghost Ship\" managed to swim to shore, and attacked Kino and Hayami, but broke down emotionally at the site of Zorndyke's funeral procession, for he loved Zorndyke as a father. He and Mutio, as well as an animal-like band of processioners, carry Zorndyke to rest at the bottom of the ocean.
Six picks up Kino and Hayami, and the series ends as the war ends. |
