SUPER ROBOT WARS ALPHA 2 ZENGAR ROUTE STAGE 7 DAIKUMARYU Daimonji: ...and from here onward, we'll commence our seeking out of the stronghold of the underground forces. On the way, I think it will become a trip to go battle against the stronghold, but... Is this fine with you? Shiba Hiroshi-kun. Hiroshi: ...yes. I'll stay with the Daikumaryu at least until the end of Operation Destroy The Underground Forces. Daimonji: Then, I'll be depending on your acquaintance. Hiroshi: I understand. Then, if you will excuse me... (Hiroshi walks off) Pete: ...is this okay, Professor? We can't tell any of the others about it. Daimonji: It's best we leave it at that... his situation has complicated circumstances. Pete: Circumstances...? Daimonji: (Right... that time...) FLASHBACK Daimonji: What did you say!? Hiroshi-kun's body holds that kind of secret...!? Senjirou: ...yes, that's correct. Daimonji: Does he even...? Senjirou: No... When the time comes, I think he should hear it from my mouth. Daimonji: ..... Senjirou: But, in order to pass the secret of that Bronze Bell over the head of the Great Evil Empire, I had to do it this way. I had pass the burden of that cruel destiny onto Hiroshi. ...and, to compensate for that, I exist in this current form. Daimonji: (Professor Shiba decided to go that far in order for the underground forces to be...) Senjirou: ...Professor Daimonji, I have a favor to ask. When the time comes that Hiroshi decides to accompany the Daikumaryu............ END FLASHBACK Daimonji: (...people... for the sake of one's mission, must sometimes be callous, huh...) (This battle can't be won if I'm not, huh...) (At least, I'll have to be until Hiroshi-kun can accept everything...) (Watching over him, I'll guide him as best I can.) Pete: ...Professor Daimonji, what do we do from here on? Daimonji: As per the orders from Chief Miwa, we're going to seek out the stronghold of the underground forces. Pete-kun, have the Daikumaryu depart. Pete: Acknowledged. Daikumaryu, lifting off. COASTAL TOWN Sanada: So it's as I thought... The activation of Orphan and the growth of Bimura appear to be synchronized. And, Bimura and Getter Rays. If this truth were to be somehow explained, humanity could reach a new stage... (footsteps, door opening) Sniper: ..... Sanada: Who are all of you!? ???: ...Professor Sanada, right? Sanada: ! Cuttnal: From here on, you're going to be a member of the Dokuuga. Sanada: Dokuuga...! The ones said to be manipulating the global economy, that one...? Cuttnal: We value your intellect and research very highly. If you cooperate, we'll spare your life. Sanada: So you plan to coerce me? If you kill me, you won't be able to learn any of the secrets of Bimura. Cuttnal: Mh...! Sanada: If you want to coerce me, try to think of a better approach. Cuttnal: Argh, shut up! As long as your brain is fine, I don't care! Besides, don't you value your son!? Sanada: !! Kenta...!? Cuttnal: Now, what will you do!? Sanada: ...fu, fufufu. So that's it... meaning whatever I say is useless, huh. Cuttnal: Heh. It seems you've gotten the idea now. Sanada: Yes, I've gotten the idea. Completely. (finger snap, machinery sound) Cuttnal: You, what did you do...? Sanada: Fufufu, Sorry, but I won't be associating with you. Cuttnal: You wouldn't, you're gonna self-destruct!? Sanada: (Sorry, Kenta... Please, live strongly...) TITLE: GOSHOGUN, TAKE OFF Kenta: Eh? Someone's come to the house. Could it maybe be a vistor? (explosion) Kenta: M, my house!? Dad! Daaaaaaaaaaaad!! (Enemy units appear) Kernagul: Argh, that idiot! He wasn't supposed to take Professor Sanada dead!! Cuttnal: Be silent, Kernagul! Don't tell me what to do!! Kernagul: What was that!? You intend to turn against me, is that it!! Cuttnal: That's why you're just like a single-celled organism. There's a giant empty space in the basement of this mansion... I saw that the Bimura research results were being hidden there. Kernagul: Hmph. Doesn't that mean you just stumbled across it by chance? Cuttnal: (In spite of having the intellect of a single-celled organism, he's perceptive...) Argh! If you've got the spare time to blather on, get off your ass and surround this mansion!! Kernagul: What's with that air of importance! I'll give you a loan to deal with this matter! Cuttnal: Very well. But, don't forget that the credit is mine. Kernagul: Nnrgh! If that's the case, the interest rate is triple! Kenta: Aah!? Cuttnal: Fufufu, Kenta Sanada right? Come along with me. Kenta: Wh, who are you, uncle...? Cuttnal: An acquaintance of Professor Sanada. He requested for me to retrieve you. Kenta: Then, where is dad!? What happened to my house!? Cuttnal: What, it was just a little accident. Besides, boy... I'm not a suspicious person. Kenta: You're completely suspicious! What's with that crow on your shoulder!? Cuttnal: Argh, how bothersome! Just come along with me!! Kenta: !! ???: Boy, get down! Kenta: Eh...!? (gunfire) Sniper: !? Cuttnal: You, who are you!? Savalas: Someone who fights all of you Dokuuga. Now boy, this way! Kenta: O.. okay! Cuttnal: Kernagul!! Kernagul: Pushing all the fundamental work on me, are you! Get them, Impacter! (shaking) Cuttnal: Wh... what was that earthquake!? (Good Thunder launches) Cuttnal: See, look at that! As I thought, there was something hidden in that basement!! Kernagul: Don't act so proud! What is that!? Cuttnal: I told you! That's the results of the Bimura research! Kernagul: You left out that little detail! That's no ordinary mobile fortress!! Father: Good Thunder startup complete. Commencing conversion of Bimura for teleportation energy. Savalas: Alright, GoShogun, ready yourself! (GoShogun appears) Shingo: Remy, Killy... GoSghogun is going. You okay on standby? Remy: I'm OK anytime. Killy: I'll be depending upon your mercy. Shingo: Alright... GoShogun, GO! Kenta: Th, that robot...!? Savalas: That's GoShogun, which Professor Sanada created... And, this is the Good Thunder. Kenta: GoShogun... Good Thunder... just who the heck are all of you...!? Remy: Hold on, hold on~! Don't the Tri-Three get a turn!? Shingo: For some reason, it was omitted. Probably because this time there's a troublesome amount of work. Remy: But then, I won't get to make my debut! Shingo: Don't complain, Remy. This is an era where things have to speed up, after all. Killy: Right, right. Well, if Remy wants an opponent afterwards, I could give her ample... Remy: Aa~h... From here onwards, fighting together with these kinds of colleagues will raise my stress... Killy: The only thing I'd like to raise is the pay. Savalas: ...Shingo, Killy, Remy. Go ahead and show them your power. Killy: Roger that. I guarantee I'll work precisely. Remy: The heroine who opposes the evil organization... I didn't think I'd ever be that kind of gal~~ Shingo: Just be careful not to become a tragic heroine instead. Remy: If I'm together with you, Shingo, I might end up that way, huh? Killy: It's better than being a comedy. Well, this is where we should face the task at hand... Shingo: Then let's go, you two! [Beginning of Turn 3 Player Phase] (Daikumaryu appears) Pete: Professor Daimonji, we've arrived at the outer limits of the area that reported a battle! Daimonji: Good! Order all units to sortie! Pete: Roger! Sakon: Th, this place is...! Daimonji: Do you know something, Sakon-kun? Sakon: Y, yes sir. This is unmistakeably the home of Professor Sanada of the Space Development Corporation...! Daimonji: What!? THAT Professor Sanada's...? Pete: All units, sortie immediately! [Launch] Hyouma: Who're those guys? Kosuke: Everyone! Please look at that battleship's marking! Kouji: Yeah, that's definitely... Err, what was it again? Sayaka: Oogh! Kouji-kun, read the newspaper once in a while! That's got to be the marking of Dokuuga! Kouji: Yeah yeah, that! Hyouma: That's called a Dokuuga? The Planet Boazan's Beast Soldiers'... Juuzou: That's a Dokugaga(ed. note: Japanese monster)! What are you talking about at a time like this, you doof! Hyouma: Sh, shut up! It was a joke, a joke! Chizuru: It was more like a genuine mistake. Hyouma: Ugh... M, more importantly, what's a Dokuuga? Kosuke: Dokuuga is an organization which schemes to rule the global economy. Hyouma: Organization? So they take over companies? Nana: That's not all that frightening, is it. Kyoshiro: Don't speak foolishly. An enemy that holds more economic power than battle power is a much more troublesome opponent, by far. Nana: Why's that? Kyoshiro: For example, suppose they took over the maker of our mechs' parts. If we needed adjustments and repairs, we'd be in serious trouble. Nana: Ah...! Kosuke: Our laboratories are for the most part civilian institutions... they're far more vulnerable to financial attacks than to physical ones. Hyouma: Anyhow, they're no different from bad guys, right!? So in that case, we fight them! Shingo: What do we do, Captain Savalas? Those people seem to be coming to our aid. Remy: They look like they're in good spirits too. Savalas: We'll make full use of the useful ones. We'll cooperate with them and destroy the Dokuuga. Killy: So Team Play is one team of three buddies playing together. Honestly. Shingo: Quit grumbling, Killy. Something can be accomplished if three hearts become as one. (ed. note: "three hearts becoming as one" is straight out of the Getter Robo theme song) Remy: Or rather, skill and power and heart joining hands? Killy: That's not the kind of thing that suits a lone wolf like me. Shingo: Well, we won't refuse the protection of the rumored famous Super Robot-sama's. Let's accept it respectfully. [Beginning of Turn 3 Enemy Phase] (Units appear) Kernagul: Cuttnal! Do you intend to snatch my share!? Cuttnal: Hmph, didn't I tell you the credit would be mine? Besides which, an assault by some talentless buffoon would ruin the bounty of war and put us right back where we started. Kernagul: Rrgh...! So you intended to use me from the start!! Cuttnal: Idiot, it's your own fault for not realizing that. Kernagul: Why you! If it's gonna be like that, the fastest one wins! I'll snatch the secrets of Bimura up with this hand! Remy: Oh my, it's getting ugly... the bad management's getting into a tug-of-war. Killy: Heh... we could have the role of flunkies fated to lose. Shingo: What's this, would you rather we scattered flashy flower petals around for our debut battle? [Cuttnal vs Savalas] Cuttnal: Now, hand the results of the Bimura research over to me. Savalas: I refuse. Cuttnal: What was that!? You think you can flee the hand of Dokuuga!? Savalas: Yes. That's what Good Thunder and GoShogun are here for. [Cuttnal vs Shingo] Cuttnal: Professor Sanada's inheritance is too precious a thing for you guys. You should hand it over to me. Remy: You wouldn't say that kind of thing if you'd inherited it yourself. Killy: Really. And isn't the inheritance tax in this case a little high? Shingo: That's the way the Dokuuga do things. ...I remember that for myself all too well. Cuttnal: In that case, shouldn't you remember the full terror of us as well? If you value your life, you'll hand that robot over. Shingo: ...so he says, while in the middle of struggling to snatch it... That's also the way you all do things, as I fully know. [Cuttnal defeated] Cuttnal: Nngh...! I won't forget this treatment!! [Kernagul vs Anyone] Kernagul: Guhuhu...! If I defeat the Super Robots of the Far East, people will quake before my name! [Kernagul vs Savalas] Kernagul: Whatever the case, this mobile base seems to be Professor Sanada's research results! Just hand it over to Dokuuga like an adult! Savalas: I refuse...! To hand the Good Thunder over to people like you would mean the end of humanity...! [Kernagul vs Shingo] Kernagul: Show me the true power of a former Boxing Champion! Remy: Ara, you're more versatile than you look. Killy: ...so she says, but doesn't that one look like a boxer? Shingo: Well... Boxing and combat aren't all that different, are they? Kernagul: Ngh... you don't have to tell me that! Shingo: Then in that case, fly like a butterfly and sting like a bee in that huge frame of yours. Though that's only if you can. [Kernagul defetaed] Kernagul: Why you! Tons of nuisances are in our way! Then I'll give you this match!! [When battle is over] Kouji: Heh! You could be a Dokuuga or a Dokugaga, and you'll still get beaten into next week! Kazuya: The only one remaining is that mysterious robot. I don't think it's an enemy, but... Daimonji: Midori-kun, try to open up contact with that battleship. Midori: Roger. Savalas: ...Shingo, return GoShogun to the Good Thunder. Remy: Arara, Captain... we're not even sticking around to thank them? Isn't that a little rude? Savalas: That is an order. Hurry it up, Shingo. Shingo: ...so we gotta, Remy. Killy: You can't win against a crying child or a sponsor, huh. Remy: Guess there's no way around it. Then, a promise... "See you again!" Midori: Professor Daimonji, it seems the other party isn't planning to respond to our hails. Daimonji: What...!? Pete: Being this way, those guys are just as suspicious as the others... Professor, let's put those people under arrest. Sakon: Wait! There's an unknown energy reaction coming from that battleship on our sensors! Pete: What!? Father: Bimura conversion complete. Good Thunder, commencing teleportation. Savalas: Shingo, Remy, Killy, Kenta... This is the beginning of a long journey for us... (Good Thunder disappears) Kazuya: ! It vanished!? Sayaka: Wasn't that a warp!? Kosuke: N, no...! There were no gravitational abnormalities on the sensors at all. Sakon: That was probably teleportation... But, it wasn't a Vital Jump...! (A completely unknown teleportation method made possible by a complete unknown energy source...) (What is this premonition...? I feel as though... something unbelievable is rising, beyond any of our expectations...) HIMALAYA MOUNTAIN RANGE Father: Good Thunder, teleportation complete. Arrival destination... the Himalaya Mountain Range, in Tibet. Savalas: We succeeded, anyway. Father, if you would, a full status check. Kenta: Uncle, my dad.... What happened to my dad? Savalas: ...Professor Sanada is deceased. By the hand of the Dokuuga... Kenta: That's! So, at that time!? OVA: Kenta-kun.... Kenta: OVA... I, I'm all alone now... OVA: ...that is not true... I am your educational mecha. I go any place that you go, Kenta-kun... Kenta: Hey, OVA... From now on, what should I do...? Savalas: Yes. You'll go on a journey, boy. A long, long journey. Kenta: Eh... OVA: That's right. Savalas here was a friend of Master-sama. Savalas: I'll introduce you to the Good Thunder Team, which will be your companions. ...Enter please. Shingo: I'm Shingo Hojo. I'm the leader of the Good Thunder Team, more or less. Remy: I'm Remy Shimada. Nice to meet you, boy. Killy: I'm Killy Gagurey. Kenta: Um... What about other people...? Savalas: The Good Thunder staff consists of 5 people. In other words, it's just us. Kenta: Eeh!? That's all!? Savalas: 5 people is enough. ...but beyond that, in order to teleport, more than 5 humans can't board. Besides which, the Good Thunder is under the perfect management of the Father Computer. Shingo: By the way, Captain Savalas... with our destination reached, where are we headed towards now? Savalas: Abusing the teleportation system could mean we would vanish from the face of this world... ...if that were to happen, we might continue fleeing forever. Remy: Forever...? Shingo: Then, let's flee already. We could get stuck as monks if we stay in a place like this. Savalas: The Good Thunder is not yet complete. After teleporting once, it can't move for a while. Remy: Eh~!? Savalas: Furthermore, there are limits to the range to which it is possible to teleport. Killy: And this is why I hate new prototypes. Shingo: ...I see. So GoShogun is pretty much the knight made to protect this landlocked boat. Remy: You just now say that? Savalas: GoShogun is not an ordinary combat robot. That body holds a great secret within. Remy: And if it's a secret, that must mean it's pointless to ask. Savalas: Sorry. I'll tell you everything when the time comes. Kenta: (Could that secret be... the results of Dad's Bimura research?) Savalas: Kenta-kun. On this journey, you'll get to experience meeting a lot of people and doing a lot of things. One by one, I want you to remember the meanings that all of those things hold. OVA: Kenta-kun, keep persisting. I'll also be rooting for you. Kenta: Yeah. I'll go...! This journey is what Dad wanted too... I can't keep being sad all the time. Savalas: Mm-hmm. That's the spirit, Kenta-kun... DOKUUGA BASE Neoneros: Is that so... Cuttnal and Kernagul failed to abduct Professor Sanada... Bundol: The Professor's intellect was a global asset... To lose such a thing before one's very own eyes is sheer foolishness. Neoneros: ..... Bundol: In the end, it was an impossible operation for those who were overanxious or not anxious enough. I should have handled it myself... Neoneros-sama... leave the pursuit of Bimura and the Good Thunder to myself, Bundol, and I will handle it without fail. Neoneros: Very well, Bundol. I'll leave the next operation to you. Jitar... you develop a radar to detect Bimura. Jitar: To locate the place the Good Thunder teleported to... right? Orders accepted. Concerning the research expenses, though. If it can be done, it will cost more than usual... Neoneros: When you can pinpoint the location of the Good Thunder, I'll pay whatever you want. Jitar: Y, yes... so it's a post-work payment... Then, if you will excuse me... Neoneros: (The surfacing of Orphan with the alien invasion, and Bimura...) (Everything is proceeding smoothly. Fufufufu...) [Eyecatch]
