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!

Space Knight! Space Knight Tekkaman!

As Earth entered the 21st century,

it suffered famine due to natural disasters, pollution, and population growth.

Even the International Food Organization's ten-year emergency stores

had only three years remaining.

In other words, famine was another factor in Earth having three years left to live.

What's that?

The Spinning Tek Lancer!

Region A third Storehouse security, calling headquarters.

This is headquarters. Go ahead, third Storehouse security.

A flying object of unknown affiliation just fell into the sea nearby. Over.

Roger. We'll investigate at once.

Hello. This is Amachi.

What? The third food storehouse?

Understood. I'll send the Space Knights at once.

Jouji, it's the Waldastar.

Roger! Andro! Hiromi! Let's go!

Roger!

Roger!

Up we go!

Jouji!

Don't you worry. We can't fight here, so let's lead them out into space.

Although, it might be better to leave it to Tekkaman.

Hey!

Tek Win!

Here we go!

Heave-ho!

That machine seemed like a big deal, but it went down surprisingly easily.

But what are the Waldastar after now?

Did they think they could take out our food stores with one little steel beast?

Maybe they sent it to the wrong place.

No, I don't think so.

More precious to the Earth than any of its precious metals or jewels,

is one grain of wheat, one slice of bread.

Even the slightest loss of food cannot be recovered from.

If they sent that steel beast after dozens of storehouses...

Earth's food stores would be nearly exhausted.

Humanity would die of starvation in ten days.

Starvation tactics, eh?

It's an old strategy, but effective.

Anyway, I'm glad you nipped it in the bud.

Contact the Earth Defense Force. We'll increase security at the storehouses.

Did you fail again, you fool?

And you call yourself leader of the Waldastar?

I beg your forgiveness, Space Emperor Doblais!

But, Space Emperor Doblais...

That's the strongest steel beast we can remote control from out here in space.

Then why not create a remote control base on Earth?

On Earth?

I didn't even think of that.

Then I could control several thousand destructor beasts at once.

Stop daydreaming and go!

Go?

Me, sir?

Yes. You will erect the base personally,

to atone for your previous failures.

Yes, sir!

Let us go straight to Earth using Leap Navigation.

Yes, sir. Leap engines activated.

Our Leap Navigation makes Earth just a short flight away.

Lord Rambos, preparing to leap.

Right. Let's go.

Four. Three. Two. One.

Leap device activated.

Leap complete.

W-W-What?

Earth's atmosphere is different from space.

To Rambos's spaceship, traveling with Leap Navigation,

the atmosphere was like a wall, creating a shock wave as they hit it.

The Space Development Center picked up on that shock wave right away.

It fell on the South Pole.

It just appeared suddenly in the atmosphere?

Leap Navigation!

Now's my chance.

With a Leap Navigation machine,

the Space Development Project is as good as complete!

And it's at the South Pole right now, right?

Space Knights, fly to the South Pole at once.

Recover the Leap Navigation machine at all cost.

Good. We'll be landing at the South Pole soon.

There!

Look! They're going to fight tooth and nail to protect their Leap Navigation!

Pegas and I will handle those saucers.

Andro, Hiromi, retrieve the Leap Navigation machine.

Leave it to me.

Pegas!

Roger!

Tek Setter!

Come on, let's go.

I'll be waiting in the hangar. Meet me there, okay?

Sure.

Hey, Mootan.

I think we've come to like these Earthlings too much.

Andro!

It's time we said goodbye.

This is our chance to leave the Earthlings behind.

A-Andro, don't tell me...

Earth has Tekkaman.

But our homeworld, Sanno, has no Tekkaman.

We should go home.

I understand, Andro.

We should leave the Earth in Tekkaman's hands.

Those are...

It looks like they left some guards here, too.

Are you shocked, Space Knights?

We Iceans come from an icy planet that exists at 230 degrees below zero.

Space Knights, become ice!

Andro!

Damn it...

Hiromi! Andro is...

W-What is all this?

I cannot see anything!

Hiromi! What is this?

It's a blizzard. A snowstorm!

We do not have this on our planet.

Where are the Space Knights?

Where is Lord Rambos's spaceship?

They lost sight of us!

We're saved.

Thanks to the blizzard.

Andro!

Andro, are you okay?

Yes. But Mootan...

Where is Rambos's spaceship? Do you see it?

Yeah. It's right nearby!

Good. Let's go.

Andro!

You can't do this in your condition.

I must go.

Andro, thank you.

You're working so hard to save Earth.

I'm sure that some day, Earthlings will work to help Sanno, too.

We won't forget all you've done for us.

Is anyone there? We came to get you!

Oh, you're here! I've been waiting.

I was worried when you Iceans went out and never came back.

It's Rambos!

Hurry! Get into the escape pod!

Wait. Let me activate the self-destruct mechanism.

Oh, my!

This is awful. I can't see a thing!

Where are you?

This way. Hurry! Tekkaman is coming!

What? Tekkaman?!

W-We can't have that!

I'm freezing!

It worked!

Andro! What are you doing?

Andro!

Forgive me, Hiromi. Forgive me.

You won't make it back to Sanno with an injury like that!

Andro, come back!

Andro! Andro!

Mootan, turn off the self-destruct switch.

It should be in the central circuit.

I'll restore the damaged facilities.

Mootan!

Okay, Andro.

I know it's hard. It's hard for me, too.

But we must get back to Sanno, no matter what.

There it is!

Come on, Andro! I turned off the self-destruct mechanism!

Andro!

I-I'm fine.

I'll make it back.

Back to Sanno... I won't fall apart here.

I-Is this...

The Leap Navigation machine!

What?

We can make it back to Sanno with this!

Mootan! What are you doing?

Stop it!

Stop it, Mootan!

Mootan!

Andro, I don't think it's good to only care about our own planet.

If we do that, we won't ever be friends with the people of other planets.

Get out of the way! If you don't... I'll hurt even you, Mootan!

I won't move. Hiromi said it, too.

Some day soon, Earthlings will help Sanno...

Right now, it's our turn to help the Earthlings!

Mootan, you're some guy.

I give up.

Andro!

Andro, are you trying to betray us?

No!

Andro thought the active self-destruct system was too dangerous, so he shut Hiromi out!

Here's the proof! He was removing the Leap Navigation system, see?

The Leap Navigation system?

It's like a living thing.

Hey, Hiromi! Please, trust Andro! Please?

Mootan.

I trust you.

Come out, Space Knights!

You think I'll let you have that Leap Navigation system?

Leave them to me.

Hiromi, you treat Andro.

You want to fight?

Heave-ho!

I have beaten you!

Pegas!

Tekkaman!

That is unfair.

Pegas!

My body will not move.

Pegas! Set Return!

Tekkaman!

Oh no... the time limit!

Well done, Iceans!

Freeze Pegas over!

Unable to return to Pegas, Tekkaman will exceed his transformation time and die!

Tekkaman...

My, he's a stubborn one.

Spinning Tek Lancer!

W-What is this?!

Hot! Hot! Hot!

The pain!

What in the world? They're melting!

I doubt you can figure out that Leap Navigation system anyway!

It's less a machine and more a living being.

The science of these aliens truly does outstrip that of Earth.

If it's a living thing, could it die?

It's possible.

Father, you can figure it out before then, right?

I don't know. It defies imagination.

All I can feel is awe.

But we must do it, or we lose.

The future of Sanno rests on Earth's science.

If not, then all of Mootan's feelings go to waste.

The Space Knights nearly died to capture the Waldastar's Leap Navigation system,

but they do not yet know if they can use it.

But upon this machine, which resembles a living brain,

rests the fate of both Earth and Sanno.
