SPACE KNIGHT

TEKKAMAN

Let the sun burn! Race forth, Tekkaman!

Moero taiyou kakero Tekkaman

The Waldastar are there, scheming in the dark!

Yami ni ugomeku Waldastar

In the light of the shining galaxies

Kudaite hoshikuzu uchuu no hate ni

If you call out your father's name...

Kirameku ginga ni chichi no na yobeba

The tear you cry will be another star

Hitosuji nagareru namidaboshi

Do it, Pegas! Tek Setter!

Yaruzo Pegas Tek Setter

Space Knight! Space Knight Tekkaman!

Uchuu no kishi uchuu no kishi Tekkaman

Do it, Pegas! Tek Setter!

Yaruzo Pegas Tek Setter

Space Knight! Space Knight Tekkaman!

Uchuu no kishi uchuu no kishi Tekkaman

Danger draws ever closer to Earth.

As mankind destroys itself with pollution,

the evils of Stellar Rogue Cluster Waldastar drive it further into despair.

It is only the Space Knights that offer mankind any hope.

I think it might be a quiet day.

Come on, Waldastar, show yourselves! You won't get off this easily!

Don't be so impatient. Peace is best for everyone.

That's why we can't afford to let them go.

W-What's that?

What?

I knew they'd come!

Strange. It's not attacking us.

That's true. Should we have a look?

If we don't strike first, they will!

Jouji, it could be a trap. Leave it alone!

Pegas! Tek Setter!

Roger!

That's odd.

What kind of spaceship was that?

It didn't even fight back!

The Lost Spaceship

It went down that easily?

Strange. Was there anything else out of the ordinary?

No.

But it is the Waldastar. They may still have a trick up their sleeves.

What's wrong, Andro?

I'm not certain they were hostile.

It was Jouji who made the first strike.

But if I hadn't attacked them, they might have tried something terrible.

Did you have any proof that the spaceship was Waldastar?

What?!

You'll condemn anyone just because they're aliens.

I don't care for it.

That's right.

This is the control room.

Contact the lunar base. Have them search for the saucer's remains at once.

Understood.

What's wrong?

You mentioned the saucer had an unusual shape.

If we can find the remains, it might aid us in our Leap Navigation research.

Of course!

I want one of those enemy spaceships so badly I can taste it.

Right. We'll steal one of those Waldastar spaceships.

Then, Earth can have Leap Navigation as well.

Listen, Amoebans. This time, I'm counting on you.

Infiltrate the Space Development Center! Kill Jouji before he becomes Tekkaman!

Go!

Andro is always alone.

Although he fights against the Waldastar as a member of the Space Knights,

he is still an alien, and cannot fully open his heart to the alien-hating Jouji.

I want to go home.

I want to go home to Sanno.

A human!

Oh, you're awake.

We should give her some peace and quiet.

Andro, stay with her, please.

You're the one who saved me?

Sure.

What were you doing there?

I tripped and fell off the cliff.

That was close. You need to be careful up there.

I was thinking of my dead father and mother.

Hmm, you're just like me.

Your father and mother are gone, too?

What's your name?

Karen.

Karen, is it?

They call me Andro Umeda.

Where am I?

The medical bay of the Space Development Center.

What?

Nothing to worry about. They're friendly, here.

You work here, then?

Sure.

Why?

No reason...

Strange stones.

They're not from Earth, are they?

It's a souvenir.

My father and mother worked on a Space Observation Ship.

Andro Umeda. Come to the control room at once.

Have a nice rest. I'll drive you home, later.

What is it?

Two men from the government regulation center have been murdered.

They were both fine young men.

Director, this must be the work of aliens.

Yes, this is definitely aliens.

They were smothered from all sides at once.

A human couldn't do this.

This won't be the last of it.

I want you all to keep a tight watch.

Andro.

What?

It's about the woman you saved from the ocean earlier.

Did you notice the strange stones in her necklace?

What about them?

I'm just a bit curious about them.

There are no stones like that on Earth.

She said her parents worked on a Space Observation Ship.

They probably picked them up on another planet.

I see.

That's right! I promised I'd drive her home.

Be back in a bit!

Take care.

Did Andro say something to you?

I hope I'm just being paranoid...

Wow, this is where you live?

Quite a mansion!

I used to live here with my parents, but now I'm all alone.

It's lonely, but it's the only home I have.

You can come by the Space Development Center if you ever need a friend.

You'd be my friend?

Oh, sure!

Goodbye!

It's getting late.

It's past the time we're supposed to change posts.

What?

Tch. They overslept again?

Right, I'll go wake them.

Thanks.

What's wrong?!

The auto-alert!

It's the third gate, Jouji!

So you're the ones behind all this nonsense?

That's right! We are Amoebans!

We are looking for a boy named Jouji from the Space Knights!

Jouji?

Tekkaman! If you know, you had better tell us!

Tekkaman?

I see.

So it's Jouji they're after!

He disappeared!

Darn! That was the Sannonite!

I'm right here, Amoebans.

Andro! Are you okay?

Yes. But we had a few more sacrifices, I'm afraid.

Four security guards...

...plus one car.

So it was the Waldastar?

There should be others nearby.

This won't be the last of it.

Jouji, be careful.

You're the one they're after.

Me?

Just as you hate aliens, they hate you, Tekkaman.

What?

So that Jouji boy is Tekkaman?

Going for another swim?

I wouldn't recommend it.

Earth's oceans are filthy, you know.

This planet doesn't have much longer, after all.

There's no fish in those oceans. The birds won't come near.

I'd like to go back to my own planet.

I don't want to die here, mixed up in some other man's fight.

Andro, are you...

I'm a Sannonite.

Do these stones look familiar to you?

These are...

The Lunar Base sent them earlier.

They found them in the remains of the spaceship you destroyed.

They're just like the stones on that Karen girl's necklace!

There may be connection between her and the spaceship you destroyed.

But more importantly...

Have a look at this.

Does it look familiar?

The stones in these pictures were taken from a Grecian dig site.

Which means what?

There's a theory that Earth's ancient culture was brought here by aliens.

Earth's ancient culture, brought here by aliens?

Aliens were coming here that long ago?

There is no proof.

But there are many ruins out there that our science can't explain.

For instance, the pyramids of Egypt.

The temples of the Inca, the observatories of the Maya.

The stone faces of Easter Island.

The diagrams of the Nazca plains.

It wouldn't be strange for friendly aliens to visit Earth again, millennia later.

Then, the mysterious spaceship I destroyed...

That's right. It wasn't the Waldastar.

Director!

That's all I wanted to tell you.

That's all. Return to your mission.

I hate him.

Tekkaman killed my parents and friends, who only came here to trade with Earth.

What's that thing?! Take evasive maneuvers!

I will have revenge on Tekkaman.

Karen...

Back again, Amoebans?

Wretched Sannonite.

We shall avenge our comrades!

Andro!

You won't be parted long!

Karen!

Yucoc!

Karen, are you all right?

Wait!

Jouji!

Tekkaman.

I am Karen of planet Yucoc. You destroyed our spaceship and killed my parents.

Now, tell me.

Where is the spaceship you used to get here?

This is a Space Bazooka.

Don't try anything funny.

Now tell me!

The far side of the moon, Tsiolkovskiy Crater.

Jouji! Don't!

Why did you kill him? He was running.

That's just the kind of person you are!

A monster who kills aliens like one might kill a bird or a bug!

This is Earth!

Even if it doesn't have much longer, the Earth is our home.

I cannot allow any alien to invade it!

Jouji, what are you saying?

You saw how it works, didn't you?

You can use it to kill me.

But not just yet.

There's somewhere I have to take you first.

Father!

What is it, Hiromi?

Jouji and Andro have taken off in the Blue Earth!

They said they know where the alien spaceship is!

I see. If they can take it intact, we can complete Leap Navigation!

But how could they leave us behind?

That's right! It's so inconsiderate!

It was a long and bitter fight.

To take the spaceship intact, Tekkaman could not use his lances or his whip.

With wounds all over his body, he could only wait for a chance.

Too bad for you, Tekkaman.

We'll finish you, now.

Voltekka!

Jouji!

K-Karen...

Now's your chance. Shoot me!

Take the Waldastar spaceship outside.

You can use that to Leap Navigate back to your home planet.

Now... use that Space Bazooka to shoot me and go home.

If you can find the strength to pull the trigger

then... that will end this!

Don't do it, Karen!

Andro, move.

I'm going to kill him like he wants.

You can't do it, Karen. You know you can't.

If you pull that trigger, you'll be making the same mistakes as Jouji.

Andro!

Please. Forgive Jouji, Karen.

Jouji has suffered enough.

Please do not torment him any further.

Please.

Karen.

Let's go.

Jouji, what a dummy you are.

Why can't you ever just apologize?

Don't play the villain and take your life for granted that way.

How am I supposed to apologize?

To cry, say that I made a mistake and it'll never happen again?!

You want me to be that pathetic?!

How is that supposed to make up for what I did?!

I'm a person of Earth! I'm a man!

I don't know how to atone except with my life!

The spaceship has disappeared. Andro will not return.

That's fine.

Pegas, let's go back to Earth.

You'd better not, Jouji.

Or are you trying to abandon me out in space?

Andro!

You idiot.

You could have used that spaceship to return to Sanno.

Besides, you were in love with that Karen girl, weren't you?

Gosh, that was stupid of you, Jouji.

You gave Karen that spaceship we needed to perfect Leap Navigation.

Director Amachi will scold you, silly boy.

Jouji and Andro had disagreements many times before.

Having now softened towards each other,

they laugh from the bottoms of their hearts.

This is proof of the friendship beginning to sprout between the lonely pair.

Charge! The Robot Army!

To strike a blow against the fiercely guarded Space Center,

the Waldastar send five robots to Earth in the form of meteorites.

Each individual machine has powerful capabilities.

When they combine, they become the powerful space robot Biggestar.

Meanwhile, knowing that without Pegas, Jouji cannot become Tekkaman,

the Waldastar secretly target Pegas.

The alien spies seal Pegas deep in a cave.

Jouji cannot become Tekkaman as Biggestar draws near.

Next time, on Space Knight Tekkaman:

Charge! The Robot Army!

Tek Setter!

No flowers, no rainbows, no wind to blow

Hana mo niji mo kaze no nai

No tears to flow down our cheeks

Namida no hoho ni nagarenai

It's a cold, sad battle out here in space

Tsumetaku kanashii uchuu no tatakai da

And yet, my heart still burns

Dakedo kokoro wa moeteiru

It burns as hot as the sun!

Taiyou mitai ni moeteiru

The Space Knights are... (The Space Knights are...)

Space Knights wa (Space Knights wa)

The heroes of the sun!

Taiyou no yuusha
