Summary[]

To get a hold of Orb's mass driver, the Earth Alliance demands Orb to concede with them or be attacked for siding with ZAFT.

Quotes[]

"Because they're... neutral? That's not right, is it? People are risking their lives in this fight against humankind's enemy."

—Azrael's opinion on neutrality in war, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, Decisive Battle

"Final Warning! The Orb Union has not considered the present state of the world, and has abandoned its responsibilities as a nation on Earth, showing concern only for its own peace. Furthermore, the nation has continued to refuse repeated requests for cooperation. On behalf of all participating nations, The Earth Alliance demands the following from the Orb Union. One, the immediate mass resignation of the Orb Union's present ruling government. Two, disarmament and dissolution of its national army. Should these demands not be met within 48 hours, the Earth Alliance will consider the Orb Union to be a supporter of ZAFT, and confront the nation with force."

—Earth Alliance's ultimatum to the Orb Union, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, Decisive Battle

"What a farce! They've even lost the decency to keep up appearances with the loss of Panama? Damn Atlantic Federation!"

Uzumi Nara Athha about the Atlantic Federation, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, Decisive Battle

Cagalli: "Kira! Kira! Um...!"
Kira: "Calm down. If people see you in that outfit looking nervous, it will only make them anxious. "
Cagalli: "Y-You think so? You're right. Oh, but... Orb's becoming a battlefield. How could this be?"
Kira: "I think the right choice is being made. Although I also think the path Orb is taking is the toughest."
Cagalli: "Kira."
Kira: "So calm down, Cagalli. I don't know how much I can do, but I'll give all the protection I can... to this nation called Orb that your father and others are trying to protect."
Cagalli: "K-Kira!"
Kira: "So stay calm. Okay?"

Cagalli Yula Athha and Kira Yamato about Orb's decision to fight back against the Earth Alliance, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, Decisive Battle

Sai: "I see. You're getting off, are you, Kuzzey?"
Kuzzey: "Yeah... Aren't you leaving, Sai?"
Sai: "I'm staying. It's Orb that's gonna be under attack, after all... and right now, I can contribute. I just called my parents a moment ago and told them the same thing."
Kuzzey: "But... Oh, what about Milly? She's getting off, right? I mean, she's a girl."
Sai: "Kuzzey."
Kuzzey: "Wh-What is it?"
Sai: "Don't worry about what other people are deciding. If you made the decision yourself, that should be good enough. Everyone has their own reasons."
Kuzzey: "But... if I'm the only one saying I want to get off, everyone will think I'm timid and cowardly, right?"
Sai: "Kuzzey..."
Kuzzey: "It's probably true. But, there's nothing I can do on board! Nothing to do with fighting! I'll leave that stuff to guys who are able to do it!"
Sai: "I know. Fighting wars is just not your thing. You're too kind for this stuff."
Kuzzey: "Sai..."
Sai: "We'll meet again when the war is over. Be sure to survive until then."
Kuzzey: "Sai... You know, I've changed my..."
Sai: "Don't even think about it. You'll regret it again later."

Sai Argyle and Kuzzey Buskirk about Kuzzey leaving the Archangel, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, Decisive Battle

Murrue: "Y-You know I'm not to found of mobile armor pilots."
Mu: "Good thing I'm a mobile suit pilot now."
