Muv-Luv Alternative Episode 8 English Subbed

The standoff between Takeru and Kei is interrupted when the base enters in alert status, as a rebel military faction led by Naoya Sagiri has staged a coup and seized the Japanese capital of Tokyo. Sagiri claims that he is acting in the best interests of the Japanese people by purging the corrupt government and seeking the Shogun’s endorsement. Despite no civilians being killed in the uprising, many government officials have been assassinated, including the Prime Minister, who is also Chizuru’s father. The interim Japanese reluctantly accepts offers of assistance from the UN and US military to retake Tokyo. Meanwhile, Takeru is concerned about Chizuru seeking revenge on Sagiri. Kei reveals that she is connected to Sagiri through her father, who was a general who was executed for disobeying orders to save civilians. The 207th then receives orders to deploy while fighting breaks out in Tokyo. Takeru private talks with Meiya, who is anxious about the fate of her sister, the Shogun.
