SUPER ROBOT WARS ALPHA 2 ZENGAR ROUTE STAGE 9 COAST OF JAPAN MEDICAL FACILITY Girl: ..... Midori: How is she, Dr. Eileen? Eileen: She's recovered from her state of shock, but... she still needs time before she can recover her memory. Midori: Is that so... I wish she could at least remember her own name... Girl: ..... Eileen: At any rate, we shouldn't try to rush things. I think it would be a better idea to let something act as a trigger. Midori: Trigger...? Eileen: Yes. Something that moves this girl's heart. Midori: ...I understand. Eileen: Then, I'm returning to Novis Noah. If anything happens, contact me, okay? Midori: Yes, thank you very much. HANGAR Hime Brain: ..... Kouji: He~h, so this is a Brain Powered... It's the first time I've seen one up close. Chizuru: Somehow, it feels different from other mecha. Hime: Ah! You all, you're people from the Daikumaryu right? Kouji: ! You're, the one piloting this Brain Powered... Hime: I'm Hime Utsumiya. Thanks for saving me earlier. Hyouma: Heheh, no need for thanks. It was the natural thing to do. Kouji: Anyway, I'm curious... When you pilot the Brain Powered, what kind of feeling is it? Hime: Let's see... Maybe a warm, gentle feeling? Kouji: Hm~~m... So it's like being bundled up in nice sheets, huh? Chizuru: I don't think that's exactly what it means... Hime: Besides that, it's like a child. Even the way it answers when I talk to it makes it sound that way. Hyouma: Y, you talk with the robot? You're pulling my leg. Hime Brain: ..... (sound) Boss: U, uhaah! Kouji: Hey, Boss... don't shout weird stuff, you startled me. Boss: K, K-K-- KABUTOO! D, d, did you see that just now!? Kouji: See what? Boss: The B- Brain Powered moved its finger! Chizuru: Eh? Nobody's piloting it though. Kouji: You're just imagining things. It's not a living thing, you know. Kosuke: No, it's close enough to one. Hyouma: You're serious, Kosuke? Kosuke: According to my data, Brain Powereds and Granchers and other Antibodies are called Organic Machines... Living machines possessing the capability of independent functionality. Besides that, they're not "manufactured" in factories, per se... It's more like they're "born" through Revival from a Plate. Boss: Antibody? Plate? R, Recital? Kouji: He said Recycle, geez. Chizuru: Oh honestly, it's Revival! Hyouma: Alright, Kosuke. It's your turn. Kosuke: U, um... I'm not here as a narrator but.. Hime: If it's alright, could you explain more of it to me too? I want to know all the details about the Brain. Kosuke: G, got it. Please leave it to me! Hyouma: (...he's a handy guy, huh.) Kosuke: First of all, Antibody is a general term for Brains and Granchers. In short, the same way Super Robot is a general term for Combattler V, Mazinger Z, and the like... And like how Mobile Suit is a general term used for Gundams and GMs. Kouji: I see, I see. Kosuke: Antibody translates to "Koutai" in Japanese... It's said that Orphan's Antibodies exist in order to fight foreign entities from the outside. Boss: So, Brain Powereds are like that too? Kosuke: No... it's said that Brain Powereds are recognized by Orphan's side as inferior Antibodies. Hime: (So that's why that guy and that girl were trying to destroy the Brain...) Kosuke: ...and so, the Reclaimers use Granchers rather than Brain Powereds as their weapons. Kouji: In short, that means Orphan's Antibodies.. Granchers, and Brain Powereds, are rivals, right? Boss: So what's the deal with Plates and Revivals? Kosuke: A Plate is like the egg of an Antibody... And the phenomenon in which a Brain Powered or Grancher is born from one is called a Revival. Hime: That's what they said on TV too. But, they don't know how to tell if it will be a Brain or Grancher... Kouji: In other words, it's like a treasure chest, huh. Hime: Ah, that's a good example. Until you open it, you won't know what's inside? Kouji: Right, right. You could get a big surprise or a disappointment. Hime: But, you went through Revival right in front of me right? Hime Brain: ..... (footsteps) Yukio: Akari! Carry that bucket over there! Akari: Ee~h? Do it yourself, I'm busy. Nanga: You all, what are you doing? Kumazo: Giving the Brains a massage! Rasse: You call cleaning them with a deck brush a massage? Kumazo: When I do it, it makes the Brains happy! Nanga: Hey, hey... get serious. Rasse Brain: ..... Rasse: ...so it seems. Akari: Right? Nanga: Fine then. Take care of 'em, our little masseuse. Kosuke: Please allow me to lend a hand. I would like to know more about the Brain Powereds as well. Kouji: Alright, since there's still time until we reach GGG, mind if I lend a hand too? Rasse: Honestly, so many curious people. Nanga: Isn't that okay? Something like that could tie into the Brains' activation. Rasse: Maybe. Looking at Hime-chan and the others over there, I almost feel that way... DAIKUMARYU INTERIOR Zengar: ..... Kyoshiro: Let's go, Major...! Zengar: Come at me...! Kyoshiro: Oooooryaaa--!! Zengar: Uwooo--!! Kyoshiro: --ngh!? Zengar: An opening!! CHESUTOOOOOO!! Fan Lee: One tag! That's the match!! Hachiro: Zengar-san wins! Hiroshi: ...that looked dangerous, Major. It was a paper-thin line you walked. Kyoshiro: Kh...! What driving force. Praiseworthy of the Jigen-ryuu style... my hands were completely numbed. Zengar: ...if I had even slightly underestimated the timing of that interception, the one who lost would have been myself. ...that swordsmanship is nothing ordinary. Kyoshiro: It's due to my old man driving it into me ever since I was small. Well, that makes it two victories, two losses... That's the sum of the matches so far. Zengar: Mm-hmm... I'd like to spar again. (door slides) Midori: What are all of you doing? Hachiro: We're watching Zengar-san and Kyoshiro-san's dueling. Midori: Dueling? Fan Lee: Yes, those two are both swordsmen. I'm the acting referee for the duels. Midori: You all really like that sort of thing, don't you... Hachiro: Fan Lee-san and Kazuya-san also sparred, you know. Fan Lee: ...by the way, you have a child with you? Girl: ..... Midori: Yes... Hiroshi: Still... not yet? Midori: I'm afraid so. Dr. Eileen said something could act as a trigger, but... Hiroshi: So that's it... I guess it's not unreasonable, after such a disaster right in front of her eyes... Zengar: ..... Girl: Ah...! Hachiro: Ne, ne, what's your name? Midori: Ah, Hachiro.. this child is... Girl: ...I'm... Irui... Hachiro: He~h, Irui-chan huh. That's a cute name isn't it? Midori: (Why...? Until just now, she couldn't remember her own name...) Irui: Ah, um... Hiroshi: ? Me? Irui: For earlier... Thank you... for saving me... Hiroshi: Y, yeah... Irui: And also... the person I'm facing... Zengar: ...don't worry about it. For both myself and Hiroshi... it was the natural thing to do. (door slides) Hachiro: Ah... Zengar-san left. I wonder if he was shy? Kyoshiro: That commander, shy? No way... Midori: Could this have possibly been the trigger Eileen-san spoke of...? Kyoshiro: Could be. Hiroshi: (...trigger, huh...) DAIKUMARYU BRIDGE Pete: What...!? Hiroshi's the children out? Midori: Yes... He said he was taking Hime Utsumiya-san, Kumazo-kun, Irui-chan, and the others out for sightseeing in Tokyo... Pete: This isn't a joking matter. We didn't come all the way out to G Island City for this sort of thing. Midori: But, right now we're in the middle of a break period, right? Pete: ...I never issued permission to leave. Miwa: ...Hiroshi-san has a little sister about the same age as Irui-chan, you see. It's probably... that he feels sorry for her, and wants to cheer her up... Pete: The Daikumaryu isn't a day care center. To keep order, there are certain rules and regulations we have to... Sanshiro: Don't talk so strictly, Pete. We're not military, you know. Pete: You're still saying things like that... Sanshiro: Yes. Besides, Hiroshi and I aren't combat machines. ...we're humans. Miwa: ....! Sanshiro: So, come on, you've gotta relax a little. Pete: That sort of thing can wait until after this mission is over. Sanshiro: You really are a strict guy, aren't you. Pete: I'm the captain that was entrusted with the Daikumaryu and all of its crew. It's my obligation to protect the life of all of them. So, I want to avoid danger that can be averted. ...that's all I'm concerned with. Sanshiro: (So that's it... This guy's been...) Daimonji: You can stop there, you two. Pete: ! Professor Daimonji... Daimonji: Don't worry about Hiroshi-kun or his company. While the Daikumaryu is anchored at G Island City, they have permission to leave. Pete: ...Professor, don't you think that's going too easy on Hiroshi? Daimonji: ...that's how it looks, huh? Pete: (...is he implying that there's some reason for it?) Daimonji: Beyond that, Pete-kun, Sakon-kun and I are going to GGG Headquarters. I'll depend on you to take care of them. Pete: ...Understood. TOKYO Yukio: It's huge~! There're so many big buildings! Hime: This area is barely affected by floods, huh. Hiroshi: ...looks that way. Hime: By the way, is this okay? Hanging out with us sightseeing in Tokyo like this. Hiroshi: Yeah, don't worry about it. You and the kids have been restless, right? Hime: That's not it, I mean regarding that Miwa-san lady. Was it okay not inviting her along? Hiroshi: Wh, why should I invite Michie along!? Hime: Hmm~~~m... being confused like about it that is kind of suspicious. Akari: Ne, ne, that red tower... what's that? Hiroshi: Ah, that's Tokyo Tower. It's been seen for three generations. Hime: Ah...? Where did Kumazo and Irui-chan go off to? Yukio: Eh!? But they were right there just now...!! Hiroshi: Don't tell me they're not here!? Hime: Th, that's how it looks...! We have to find them quickly! Hana: Nee, where did you all come from? Kumazo: From Novis Noah! Hana: That's not what I mean, where's your home? Irui: ...a big dinosaur... Mamoru: This is a problem... Where could these kids' father and mother be? Sunou: Hey.. since they're lost kids, wouldn't it be best to take them to the police station? Sueo: You moron! If people can't depend on you, you'll never grow into a real adult! Sunou: But I think at a time like this you should just meekly ask the police for help... Reiko: I wonder if you could be forgetting that we came here on a field trip to see the Tokyo government building? Mamoru: But, we can't just leave these kids by themselves, right? Irui: .... Mamoru: Don't worry. We'll help find your house, okay? Irui: ...thank you... Reiko: A~ra, you're being rather nice to that cute child. Hana: Is that it...? Mamoru-kun. Mamoru: N... no, Hana-chan! I'm, going to look over there! Sunou: Ah... he ran off. Mamoru: Phew... That girl, something bothers me about her. What could it be...? Ah...!? What is it... I'm getting a premonition...! G ISLAND CITY Taiga: Professor Daimonji, welcome to the GGG Main Order Room. Daimonji: It's the first time I've gotten the opportunity to meet the GGG chief. Taiga: Yeah, rather than a usual Space Development Corporation, it's... (alarm sounds) Ushiyama: What's happened!? Mikoto: It's trouble! Galeon is going wild in the hangar! Leo: What'd you say!? In two years' time he's not made any sudden moves, so why!? Swan: At this rate the hangar door won't close in time! Leo: Whatever the case, Galeon seems to be headed outside. But, where on Earth to...? Daimonji: Chief Taiga, What's going on!? Taiga: I'm terribly sorry. I'm afraid don't have the time to explain it fully at the moment...! Ushiyama: It's 79.6% likely that the gate will be destroyed within one hour! Leo: Chief, let Galeon out. Taiga: Let him go... Open Gate #3! Entouji: Roger that. (beeping sound) Taiga: What is it this time!? Mikoto: A transmission from Officer Hyuuma! Hyuuma: This is Hyuuma! Taiga: Hyuuma? Where are you right now! Hyuuma: This ain't the time to get into that! Right now, worry about the heart of Tokyo! Get a look at the image of it I'm sending you! Taiga: What's that!? Leo: Probably the same guys that appeared two years ago... Taiga: ...!! TITLE: FINAL FUSION, APPROVED! Hime: What's that over there!? It's not an Antibody! Hiroshi: It's not a Haniwa flunky either...! Akari: Hime-neechan, we've gotta find Kumazo quick! Hime: I, I know that but... Yukio: Ah! Look over there! (on top of the Shinjuku government building) Kumazo: A, aaah...! Sueo: No good! The elevator won't move! Sunou: Th.. then, we can't run away from here!? Irui: ...! Hime: Those kids, in that kind of place...! Hana: I'm not scared, I'm not scared...! Mamoru: Hana-chan, don't give up until the end. Someone will come to save us, definitely...! Hime: I- if we don't do something... Kumazo and Irui-chan will be!! Hiroshi: Okay, I'll go save them! You all should run away from that place! Hime: You say save, but how!? Hiroshi: Like this!! (Cyborg Hiroshi appears) Hyuuga: Hyuuga here! There are some children that were left behind in the government building! Ushiyama: Ch, chief!! Taiga: What is it, Ushiyama-kun!? Ushiyama: Among the children that got left behind, brother's... my brother's with them! Taiga: What did you say!? Leo: This is bad! With those kids there, we can't attack that thing! Taiga: Under these circumstances, the one to turn to is... Leo: Mm-hmm. Hyuuga: Yup! Taiga: Hm... Utsugi-kun, call Gai! Mikoto: Yessir. Mobile force on standby, please respond! Gai: I hear you loud and clear! I've been waiting too long for anything like this, Mikoto. Mikoto: Sorry, is your energy alright? Gai: OK! It's a full tank! Mikoto: You understand, right? Gai: Rescue the kids, isn't it? Mikoto: We're depending on you... Gai! Gai: Leave it to me! EEEEEEQUIIII--PP!! (Cyborg Gai appears) Hiroshi: ! That guy's...!? Gai: !! Hiroshi: Who are you!? Gai: No way... you're like me!? Hiroshi: Like you!? What do you mean!? Gai: Sorry, but I don't have the time to be concerned with it! Hiroshi: Hold up!! (explosion) Uguh--!! Gai: Alright, made it in time! Mamoru: !! Sunou: Wh, what the!? Gai: Everyone, I came to save... Hiroshi: Wait! Let go of those children!! (Hiroshi attacks) Gai: Wait! I'm not an enemy! Hiroshi: What...!? Gai: I came to rescue the children! Hiroshi: !! Sunou: R, really!? Gai: Yup! Hiroshi: Uwa-ha! Thanks, ojisan!! (ojisan = uncle, used here as a term for a man older than Mamoru) Gai: Hey, hey... I'm no ojisan, I'm only in my 20's, okay? Irui: ..... Hiroshi: Irui, you okay? Irui: Y, yes... Gai: ...you believe me? Hiroshi: Yeah, sorry about that. I was too hasty. Gai: Nah, more importantly.. I'm depending on you to take care of those kids. Hiroshi: What!? Gai: I'm going to be fighting that robot, so get the kids to safety quick! Hiroshi: H, hey! ....there goes a guy as impatient as Kouji. Alright, everyone... we're getting out of here. Hang in there and keep up! Mamoru: OK! Hime: Kumazo! Kumazo: Hime-neechan! Hime: Honestly, I was so worried! Irui-chan, you're not hurt either are you? Irui: Not at all... Hiroshi: Okay, everyone... this way! (leaves) Mamoru: (...what could it have been...? That premonition I had not to come here...) (explosions) Gai: Kh...! What a temperature! Leo: It's a charged particle cannon made out of accumulated microwave ovens! Taiga: So in this case, does that mean we have to say it's a particle cannon fit for a savvy consumer...? (this is a pun I had to adapt to put into English - by switching the first kanji in "kadenryoushi-hou", Taiga changed it from Charged Particle Cannon to Consumer Electronics Particle Cannon.) Hyuuga: This isn't the time for spouting bad puns! You plan to make Gai fight that kind of thing by himself!? Gai: Damnit, at this rate!! (Galeon appears) Gai: Galeon, you came for me! Leo: So he was going for where Gai was!? Galeon: ..... Mamoru: (Somehow... it's not the first time. That Lion... I've seen somewhere...) (attack sequence) Gai: Did we do it!? (Zondar full heals) Gai: What!? Swan: NO! He'll be fully regenerated in 10 seconds! Leo: Just like the time two years ago...! Taiga: Henceforth from this moment, that will be designated codename EI-02! Professor, what's Fusion's success percentage!? Leo: By simulation, 99.9%... We don't have any real battle data to go by. There's no way to know what will happen if we try it. Taiga: Ungh... FUSION, APPROVED! Mikoto: Gai, you can do Fusion! Gai: I've been waiting for that! Galeon: GAAOOO--!! Gai: FUUUUUSIOOONNN!! (Gaigar appears) GAIGAAAAAARRR--!! Come on, EI-02! I'll be your opponent!! [BEGIN BATTLE] [Turn 2 Player Phase] (Brain Powereds show up) Hime: That's!? Gai: Brain Powered!? Did it come from Novis Noah!? Mamoru: ! Ah, that robot...! Nanga: You okay, everybody! Hime: Nanga-san and Rasse-san! Rasse: Hime-chan, I brought your Brain along. Get inside quickly. Hime: Thanks! Rasse: If you want to thank someone, tell that to the Brain. It flew off on its own dangerously. Hime: Eh...? Did it really do that? Nanga: Yeah. It could have been responding to that monster. Anyway, we should stop that thing! Hime: Right! Gai: Brain Powered unit! Sorry, but I'm depending on your support! Nanga: Sure, leave it to us! Mr. GGG Rookie! Hime Brain: ..... Hime: Eh!? What's wrong, you!? Rasse: My Brain's also getting agitated. How's yours, Nanga? Nanga: It's like that over here, but it's more like it's frightened. Hime: That robot... is it also an Organic Machine...? No, that's wrong... Something far different... Anyway, we have to stop that thing! I'm depending on you! Nanga: Let's give them a good show, Brother! Rasse: Don't let Nanga and Hime-chan hog all the action! (all three get Kiai) [RESUME BATTLE] [Hime vs EI-02] Hime: As I thought, this robot... It's not an Organic Machine! [Once EI-02's HP goes into the yellow zone] (EI-02 Full Heals) Hyuuga: Damnit! Is that thing undead!? Leo: But, we still hold the Barrier System...! Gai: ...!! [Turn 3 Player Phase] Mikoto: From Gaigar, he's requesting clearance be issued for Final Fusion! Taiga: Professor! Leo: But... the chances of Final Fusion's success are close to Zero. Taiga: Those percentages are only for standard things. He should be able to do it since he has courage! (Final Fusion transformation sequence) Leo: It's a miracle!! Taiga: I'm depending on you, Brave one!! (Yuusha is the Japanese word for Hero, literally translated as "Brave one". I'll use both.) Gai: Yeah-! Nanga: So it's come out, the child of GGG's tiger. Rasse: Shouldn't it be a Lion? Nanga: You've got a point there. Then, shall we let it show us the extent of its true power? [RESUME BATTLE] [Once EI-02's HP is reduced to 0] (EI-02 half heals) Nanga: What kind of guy is this...! At this rate we aren't affecting it at all! Gai: In that case!! (Hell And Heaven attack sequence) Mikoto: He did it! Gai gouged out the enemy robot's core! Gai: Huff... huff...! Hyuuga: Alright! We don't know what it will do if we leave it be! Crush it quickly while you have the chance! Gai: OOoooohhh--!!! Zondar Human: Zondaaarrr...! Taiga: That's!? Leo: A living thing from outside Earth...!? Gai: Uwooooohh!!! (alarm beeps) Taiga: What is it!? Gai's status is odd!! Mikoto: Gai's adrenaline is driving him to critical mass! Gai can't control himself! Leo: That's bad! The self control system must have sustained damage during the battle! Zondar Human: Zondaaarrr...! Gai: Ooaaaaaa!!! Mamoru: You can't break that, STOP--!! (Mamoru appears) Taiga: What the!? That little boy's!? (healing sequence) Gai: Huff... huff... hu... Mikoto: Professor! Gai's adrenaline level is rapidly falling! Leo: Just from contact with that boy, Gai's anger subsided... just what is that child...!? Kodakarayama Kanekura(?): A, aahhh... Taiga: Is that... the true form of the living beings outside of Earth!? Kodakarayama Kanekura: Aahh... ah... Leo: No... that's without a doubt an Earthling... Gai: ..... Mamoru: ..... (Mamoru leaves) Taiga: Ah! The boy!? Entouji: Aa~h... it's no good. Satellite Search turns up nothing. His energy signature even vanished... Taiga: Hyuuga-kun... see to the human in the palm of Gaogaigar's hand... Hyuuga: Got it. Taiga: Gaogaigar, withdraw from pursuit! (Gaogaigar leaves) Hime: They left... Nanga: That Gai fellow, looks like he did what should have been impossible... Hime: Do you know about that person? Nanga: A bit... it's a different organization, but they're allies of ours. Especially, that one is... Rasse: Nanga, Hime-chan! Be careful, something's coming!! Hime: !! (Good Thunder appears) Hime: What's that!? It came out of nowhere! Rasse: Could that be the mobile fortress they said appeared over the Sanada Research Laboratory? Hime Brain: ..... Hime: ! What is it, you...? Killy: H, hey, hey... Isn't this Japan? Shingo: Could this mean, we're being divorced!? Remy: Hold on! I haven't even gotten married yet, that's not a joke! Killy: I doubt that's what it means. Shingo: Captain... is this the destination that we're supposed to meet? Savalas: ...it's Father's decision. We're just following it. Killy: Geez, leave it to the computer. My fortune never predicted something like this. Shingo: Good luck coming, or bad luck coming... Well, whatever it is, it should be fine as long as we don't share it with the Dokuuga. Remy: When you say that sort of thing, doesn't romantic trouble always follow? Killy: Sorry, but I don't have that kind of hobby. Nanga: What're those guys doing? Hime: They're not enemies right...? Kenta: Ah, that's... Hime Brain: ..... OVA: What's the matter, Kenta-kun? Kenta: That mecha over there... it's like it's laughing... Remy: No waayy. That bunny-eared robot? Killy: Sorry, but I don't enjoy fairy tales as a hobby either, Kenta. Kenta: No, Killy! Mecha have minds and hearts... Mecha are my friends! OVA: Kenta-kun... Savalas: Kenta, we can talk about that later. Right now we're going to deal with them... Remy: Them...? You don't mean, those smiling bunny-eared robots? Killy: If we're going to be their opponents, I'd prefer the term Bunny-chan. Savalas: No, they are our allies. The enemy you must fight, that is... (Blue Danube starts playing) Shingo: What's with this music? Killy: Heh... it's too refined for Shingo to appreciate, huh. This's "The Beautiful Blue Danube"... Heheh, not a bad hobby. Shingo: Hu~~h... So a guy with nice hobbies plays classical music at such a huge volume? Remy: So then, street rave clubs should be the best? Shingo: Otherwise.. well, I suppose this is better, so it's good luck. (Enemies show up) Bundol: Waltzes are nice... How beautiful, my Bundol Corps... Nanga: Those guys... could they be, Dokuuga!? Shingo: What do we do, Captain? Savalas: Of course, go ahead and sortie. Since times like this are what you all are employed for. Remy: OK! Then, let's go! (GoShogun appears) Bundol: Fufufu... So you've emerged, GoShogun. The real thing is ever more beautiful... That shining black body of an armored warrior, even at its last will be gorgeously radiant when it is wrapped within crimson flames... And so, I, Leonardo Medicci Bundol, will humbly accept the job of fulfilling that role... Shingo: What's with that guy? Killy: From how he talks and acts, it's pretty easy to estimate what sort of general guy he is. Remy: Uhe... I'm not all that good at dealing with conceited men. Bundol: That is unfortunate, Madamoiselle Remy. Remy: While we're talking, let me take the opportunity to make it clear that I don't like people who investigate others' names on their own. Bundol: That was rude of me... I should have mentioned Bundol Corps' intelligence capacity... Shingo: In short, you mean it's a matter of pride, huh. Bundol: Then, will you accept me as a partner? Hime: Nanga-san, Rasse-san! Shouldn't we be lending that robot our support? Nanga: Well, that's... We shouldn't just leave the Dokuuga be, but why do you think that way? Hime: Something about that big ship is bothering this one. Nanga: ! (...so it's the same thing here, huh. I don't think it's an Organic Machine, but could there be some other connection?) (Daikumaryu shows up) Rasse: Looks like help has come, you two. (Launch) Bundol: So that's the rumored Daikumaryu Squadron... There is only one word which can do justice to the spectacle of so many strong and matchless warriors gathered in one place. Beautiful... Shingo: ...if we're done with the chatting, can we get on with our job now? Killy: Yeah, it's time for us to be the highlight. Daimonji: All units, commence attack! [RESUME BATTLE] [Bundol vs GoShogun] Bundol: GoShogun... The secret of teleportation that Professor Sanada left behind as his inheritance, bequeath that unto the Dokuuga! Remy: So Bundol is Bundoru(verb: to seize, to plunder)... A name befitting of your conduct, isn't it? Shingo: Sorry. We're being commissioned to protect the Good Thunder, you see. Killy: As he says. Besides which, we're in a bit of a debt to that captain as well. Remy: Meaning, we'll have to beg your pardon, along with your conceited-looking rose. [Bundol defeated] Bundol: How incredibly beautiful... The enemy is too gorgeous... Certainly not unsuited to being my enemy... But, remember this much. GoShogun, as well as the Daikumaryu Squadron... I shall certainly be the one to stand over your tombstones. I will look forward to that day... fufufu... (leaves) Shingo: Geez, he's even conceited in his parting shots. Remy: What do we do this time, Captain? Disappear without thanks again? Savalas: No. For now, you all will be accompanying the Daikumaryu Squadron. Remy: A~rara... Is our term up already? Killy: We're working off our advance still. Shingo: If it's an order then we'll follow it, but will the Good Thunder be alright with its own guard? Savalas: ...it doesn't matter. In its place, you'll be taking care of Kenta and OVA. Remy: Ee~h? Isn't that putting the priority of the cart before the horse? Shingo: It's just as Remy says. Wasn't your objective to travel together with Kenta? Savalas: ...that's a little off. But, these orders are part of the plan. Time goes by somewhat quickly. Remy: ? Well, if it's like that it's fine, but. Savalas: I'll send transmissions periodically. Until then, I'll depend on you for Kenta's care. (Good Thunder departs) Killy: Honestly... Gone like the wind, huh. Remy: What'll we do, Shingo? Shingo: There's nothing for us to decide. We should accompany Kenta and go along with the Daikumaryu Squadron. Killy: Tch, that bald captain and piece of junk computer. They dumped us with protecting some punk... Remy: You'd think it'd be preferable, if it's just protection. Shingo: Well, let's give it our all for the mission, like professionals should. Kenta: ..... The Good Thunder and Captain Savalas... went away... OVA: Kenta-kun... I think this is surely also what Professor Sanada wished for. Kenta: Yeah... But, I... It looks like I'm going to meet all those people. I don't know why, but I think travelling with those people is something I have to do... OVA: Kenta-kun... [END BATTLE] G ISLAND CITY Daimonji: Then, you're telling me your employer requested for you to accompany our corps? Killy: To fight evil for the sake of justice... is what I'd like to answer, but unfortunately, that'd make for a pretty poor book title, don't you think? Shingo: Hey, hey, Killy. If you insist on being blunt, you'll be rude to all our partners here. Killy: Say what you will. I'm just doing my job. Remy: In short, just putting on a stylish air. Killy: Then, how about you, Remy? Remy: I don't think fighting evil for the sake of justice sounds too bad. Shingo, what about you? Shingo: Well, I wouldn't mind being able to protect the Earth's peace every once in a while. Pete: ...with that kind of lighthearted attitude, whether you can keep up a fight starts to come into doubt. Remy: Ara ara, you're serious aren't you? Doesn't that ever make your shoulders stiff? Let oneesan loosten you up a bit. Pete: Wh, what!? Remy: Ahaha, got you. You have cute spots too, don't you. Pete: C, cut out the teasing. Sanshiro: (He~h. That Pete guy's stammering.) Remy: If the ones we've met here are any indication, we should make friends fine. Sakon: ...it seems that your proprietor has various and complicated circumstances, but what about this particular grouping of team members? Shingo: Hou... you've done your research on us. Sakon: Heh... don't underestimate the main computer of the Daikumaryu either. Killy: Then, you have some insight into our old days? Sakon: In general. Shingo: Just as you presume, we're not familiar to the main world. Remy: At a time when our thoughts were centered on our own small shoulders, we were hired by a sponsor. Shingo: In my case, I have a personal grudge against the Dokuuga as well. Daimonji: ...and your proprietor is Professor Sanada... no, you consider him something closer than that, right? Shingo: Yeah. And Kenta is Professor Sanada's son. Daimonji: Understood, I'll approve your accompanying us. From here on, good to meet you, I'll be depending on you. Remy: Same goes for us, Boss. Shingo: By the way, what about Kenta and OVA? Hachiro: If you mean that kid, he was happily headed towards the hangar earlier. Killy: An expected development. For Kenta, who considers mecha to be friends, this place must be Heaven. Shingo: Then shall we also go sightseeing in Heaven? Hachiro: If you are, I'll give you a tour! Shingo: Thanks. Then, go ahead. Pete: ...Professor Daimonji. If they're here, it means we'll be targeted by the Dokuuga. Daimonji: I'm aware of that. But, if we don't protect the results of Professor Sanada's research, Earth itself could be ruined... Midori: Eh...? Pete: The world being ruined, what do you mean...!? Daimonji: ...no, sorry. I'm going beyond conjecture again. Pete: ..... Daimonji: Then, Pete-kun. Go to the place where Chief Taiga is. Pete: ...Roger. GGG HQ Taiga: Professor Daimonji, I offer my humblest apologies for the various problems. Daimonji: No, not at all... More importantly, could you explain to me a bit about the opponent Gaogaigar was facing? Taiga: ...regarding that, explaining that for us would be... Sakon: Based on the research we've done, I don't think there's any connection to the Combat Beasts or Mechazaurus. And, though it might be just my over-hypothesizing, is that not something using alien technology? Taiga: ..... ...I guess it's impossible to hide it from you all. Daimonji: In that case, you do know something? Taiga: I can't say everything, but... Before I give an explanation, there's one person I'd like for you to meet... Daimonji: Could that possibly be... Taiga: Yes, Gai Shishio... the one who went through Fusion with Gaogaigar. MEDICAL ROOM Leo: Mikoto-kun, what's Gai's status? Mikoto: His blood pressure has fallen from the huge stress of earlier, but is currently still not reaching normal levels. Leo: I see... (door sliding) Taiga: How is it, Professor? Leo: ...how can I put it. It will take at least 12 hours to neutralize the immunoreaction and xenobiotic reaction to the new parts. Ah, Professor Daimonji. Sakon-kun as well. Sakon: Professor... by any chance, is this your son...? Leo: Just as you surmise... my son, Gai, is a Cyborg. Daimonji: ! Leo: ...two years ago, Gai was a pilot for the Space Development Corporation... During the test launch of a new model of shuttle, a mysterious creature caused an accident by colliding into it. Then... in order to save Gai from the brink of death, I performed an operation on him to make him into a cyborg. Sakon: (Two years ago... so, around the time that the Aerogaters' advance reconaissance forces appeared around the Earth sphere.) Daimonji: Then, the one that crashed into his shuttle was... Leo: No, not the Aerogaters. They're an entirely different alien intelligent lifeform. Taiga: Right. In other words, Number 1 of the ones designated as Extra Intelligence... EI-01. Sakon: ...EI... Leo: It's not infeasible that you all wouldn't know of them. EI-01's existence has been kept secret... And that monster made of electronic goods that showed up previously was confirmed to be the second, so it was designated as EI-02. Sakon: So, EI-01 is already...? Leo: No... After that one descended down to Yokohama, it covered its tracks. And, the other things we kept over from that time are Galeon, and the limitless intelligence circuit, G-Stone. Sakon: Galeon... You're speaking of that lion-like robot? Leo: Galeon flew in from space much like EI-01, and carried the near-dead Gai back to us. And, the green-glowing G-Stone that we coincidentally discovered isn't just tied in with Gai's life... It also acts as an unlimited energy source for Gai's activity as a cyborg. Taiga: And so, we've been prepared to move again someday, in order to oppose the threat of EI-01 and others beyond the Earth... And formed Gusty Geoid Guard, codename GGG. Leo: Well, there's various other things involved in the preperatory period... We've only gotten genuinely active recently, you see. Taiga: Furthermore, we couldn't anticipate the damage taken by Gai, the most fundamental part of Gaogaigar's combination process... Gai: Chief.... If it's about my body, don't worry... Mikoto: Gai! You shouldn't be up yet! Gai: Don't worry, Mikoto. I'm the strongest cyborg on the face of the Earth, after all. Besides, even when my strength is weak, I must be there for the sake of peace. Right, Chief? Taiga: But, you see... Gai: ...we can't rely on the Daikumaryu Squadron forever, you know. Mikoto: Stop it, Gai. You're body's in no condition to endure fighting right now, right? Gai: ...this life of mine isn't all that important. So, I want to be at least useful for someone else's sake... That's really all I want. Mikoto: Gai... Taiga: I understand your feelings, but your body is still in unstable condition... As long as I don't see a solution to that, as the GGG Chief, I can't allow you to participate in battle. Gai: ..... Leo: Gai... Endure it for now... The day will definitely come when you can use your strength for the sake of the people, definitely... Gai: Yessir... GGG HQ Leo: That green-winged boy helped Gai regain control, and stopped his adrenaline flow... Taiga: Mm-hmm... That green light might have some connection with the G-Stone. Leo: Moreover, he returned the core of EI-02 that was ripped out back to a human... That boy could be the key to explaining a lot of mysteries. Taiga: Got it. I'll have Entouji-kun get the people of the intelligence bureau to check it out. MAMORU'S HOUSE Ai Amami: And so Mamoru-chan is...!? Hana: He got seperated from us... and then... I thought he would possibly go back to his house... Ai: Ah... how awful. Isamu Amami: Hang in there, Mama. Mamoru'll definitely come back...! Hana: ..... (footsteps) Mamoru: Ah, Mom...! Ai: Mamoru-chan! Isamu: Mamoru! You're okay!? Mamoru: I'm home... Ai: What a relief, you're not hurt! We were so worried, honestly! Isamu: Ahahaha! What a relief, what a relief! Ahahaha, haha! Mamoru: I'm sorry to make you worry! Hana: Mamoru-kun... where'd you go from there? Mamoru: Eh? H, here and there, you know. (I fled with a sudden dread, but that power of mine... What the heck could it be...) [EYECATCH]
