Fight, Santa! Longing for Mother's Love

We've wasted so much time in our attempts to defeat our fated enemy, Ginguiser.

Still, we must hurry to fulfill the Sazorion Empire's desire to rule the world.

We'll eradicate the Earthlings along with Ginguiser using the power of the Antares Orbs!

Remember! The prosperity of the Sazorion Empire rests upon the efforts of each and every one of you!{Remember this! The Sazorion Empire's prosperity depends on all of you!}

Yes, we understand. There's no excuse for our incompetence.

However, you can be sure that my divination will locate the Orbs.

The Orbs have been dormant for about a week.

But we must not idly anticipate their appearance, for that would be sheer incompetence.{However, waiting for the Orbs to appear with a finger in our mouths is inefficient.}

General Gabara! High Priest Necroma!

Yes, my lord?

Yes, sir?

Use a Revived Beast to destroy all important facilities on Earth that you can find.

Bring all activity on the planet to a standstill.

Yes, Your Highness.

Yes, sir!

To-Kai-Rin-Rin-Soku-Chou! To-Kai-Rin-Rin-Soku-Chou!

O Sazori Chaos that lurks within the darkness of the Sazorion Empire!

Surge forth and breathe life into Revived Beast Pandaron!

Revived Beast Pandaron

Mother!

You are my mother, aren't you?

Please, tell me! Don't hide it!

It's been twenty years, and from the old memories of that time,

the mole on your chin is something that I can still vividly remember.

You've got the wrong person. I've never had a son like you.

Don't hide it. Please, tell me.

You're my mother, aren't you? It's me, Chuuji!

Your son, who was separated from you twenty years ago.

So many times, I've seen you in my dreams. So many times, I cried.

During sad times, I'd close my eyes like this and try to picture my mother's face.

It was the only thing that consoled me.

Only the belief that I'd reunite with you someday helped me through life.

Chuuji!

Mother!

You never forgot about me until this day.

Thank you, Mother.

Hey, Santa.

What's wrong?

Santa?

Huh? Santa's acting weird.

I wonder what made him so sad.

He's at that age.

It's a very delicate age, I was like that too.

Delicate? Santa, of all people?

Mom...

If you're alive, you must be living somewhere in this vast world.

But if that was true, you'd be looking for me.

Maybe I was abandoned for real.

No, my mother would never do that!

I'm sure she's desperately looking for me, too.

I'll definitely meet my mother one day.

I'll do my best until then!

Mom!

Hey! Could someone help us?

Wh-What was that?

We're down here!

Our car fell into a ditch and won't start. Can you help us?

G-Got it!

Hold on, I'm on my way!

Are you all right?

Ouch! I was coming to help you, but you had to help me instead, how ironic.

I'll start the engine. Can you push the car a bit?

Sure.

She's beautiful.

Pops, what happened to her?

Is she not feeling well?

My lady has frail health.

She was slightly startled by the shock when the car fell.

And as you can see...

Oh, no! We need to take her to a hospital right away!

But the car is...

Oh my, you've got a blowout.

Okay, Pops, we'll go in my car.

Come on, let's go!

That would be a great help.

If you can take us to the mansion down the road, we have a personal doctor there.

She looks so pretty.

I wish my mom was someone like her.

It's a picture of her when she was younger.

That doesn't look like me at all.

Santa!

I'm right here. Did you need anything?

How does she know my name? That's strange.

Santa!

Huh?

S-Santa, don't go! Santa, come back!

I'm right here! I'm not going anywhere!

Santa...

This is odd. Who is this Santa?

He's her missing son.

Her missing son?

That's right. It happened about nine years ago.

She loved him so much.

After her husband passed away, Santa was the only reason for her to live.

And yet...

We've tried everything and searched everywhere,

but in the end, we were unable to find him.

My lady then became crestfallen.

Sometimes, she calls out his hame like this.

If he was still alive, he would be around your age.

S-Santa! Where are you, Santa?

Santa! Santa, do you read? Come back right away!

I've got bigger things to worry about right now! Sorry.

Santa! Respond!

A Revived Beast has appeared! Come back at once!

It's no use. He's not responding.

What the hell is he doing during an emergency?!

That reminds me, he looked down in the dumps.

In any case, we can't stay still.

You'll have to go by yourselves.

Contact Santa and have him join you along the way.

Yes, sir!

There you are, you panda monster!

Take this!

Torajiro, let's go!

Take that!

Crap! Don't let him get away!

Get him with the Paranormal Smash!

We can't, Goro.

Santa's not here.

We can't use the Paranormal Smash.

Damn, he's escaping from under our noses.

What the hell is Santa doing?

Aren't they beautiful?

Gazing at these asters really puts my heart at ease.

S-Same here. They really are pretty.

I-I'm glad you're feeling better.

It's all because of you.

Speaking of which, I still don't know your name.

My name? My name, uh, well...

Sa... Sa...

Don't tell me it's Santa?

Uh, no, it's... it's Sannosuke.

Sannosuke... That's a good name.

Fool! Idiot! Dumbass!

Why didn't you tell her your real name?!

Why didn't you tell her the truth?!

Sannosuke.

Yes?

My Santa loved these asters.

Looking at them reminds me of him.

If he is still alive, he should be around your age.

Excuse me, does your Santa have any unique identifying traits?{Um, is there anything about your Santa that you would recognize?}

Maybe a birthmark or a slightly protruding navel?

Now that you mention it, his navel...

Was it big?

No, it had a small mole.

Oh.

I don't have any moles on my bellybutton.

But apparently moles can naturally appear and disappear, so you can't rely on them.

You're right! Of course you can't!

Maybe Santa is much closer to you than you might think. Who knows?

Could she really be my mother?

I should ask her directly.

Mo—

Oh, right.

What's wrong?

It's nothing, just knocked off stride.

Say, Sannosuke.

Why don't we ride a yacht here on Hachijou Lake tomorrow?

Or do you have to go back because your parents are worried?

Not at all! I don't actually have...

Then you can come? I'm so glad.

Pinky swear.

Yeah.

Pinky swear!

Can't break a promise!

At last! It has appeared, Emperor Kaindark.

What? It finally showed itself?

Yes, what seems to be the Second Orb is heading towards the Hachijou Lake.

Hachijou Lake, huh? Let's ambush it there.

We can lure the Second Orb that prefers fire by blanketing Hachijou Lake in a sea of flames.

Very good.

Salome, when will the Second Orb pass by the Hachijou Lake?

Tomorrow morning, I believe.

Excellent.

Gabara, Necroma, make all of the necessary arrangements!

Yes, my lord!

Yes, sir!

Sannosuke, hurry up!

Yes, I'm coming!

My mom sure is impatient.

The Sazorion Revived Beast attacked the Keiyo Industrial Zone yesterday.

Afterwards, from Hokkaido in the north to Kyushu in the south,

it destroyed many vital industrial cities throughout Japan.

The damage estimate is approximately 99.9 billion yen.

Oh no! I'm a member of Ginguiser.

I can't just hang around here!

Why do you have to go back all of a sudden?

I'm sorry, but I remembered a very important errand.

I'll come visit you again. I'm sorry!

Oh, I see. Forgive me for making you stay here.

Somehow, you reminded me of my Santa.

So I wanted to spend some time with you.

I-I reminded you of Santa?

Yes, I felt as if you were my real son.

What's wrong, Sannosuke?

The truth is, I'm your...

My? My what?

Your... Your...

No, I can't say it...

Sannosuke!

Sannosuke...

The Second Orb will pass by the Hachijou Lake very soon.

Drop all the oil we have into the lake and set it on fire!

The Orb will surface, attracted by the fire, and we'll grab it then!

General Gabara, we've arrived at Hachijou Lake.

Good, drop the barrels!

Yes, sir!

Dropping the barrels.

My lady, look!

What's happening?

Set it on fire!

You fools!

You couldn't fight without Santa?

Do you think that's an acceptable excuse?!

But, Professor, the Sazorions run away the moment we attack them.

That's right, and we can't use the Paranormal Smash without Santa.

Don't talk back!

Five of the key industrial zones were decimated.

The damage was tremendous.

Had you given it your all, we'd just have to accept the outcome.

But what was that miserable display you showed?

Goro, if you can't even keep track of your teammates, step down as the captain!{Goro, if you cannot even understand one of your teammates, you shouldn't be captain!}

Umm, sorry for going off on my own.

Santa!

If you ever repeat what you did yesterday, you will have no place here!

We don't need someone who's not a team player!

Yes, I understand.

This is Godo.

Understood.

What's the location?

Hachijou Lake.

The Sazorions have set the lake on fire.

The lake became a sea of flames!

Where are you going?

Santa!

Goro, move out!

Yes, sir!

Wait for me, Miss! I'm coming!

Grand Fighter, Scramble!

Bull Gator, Scramble!

Spin Lancer, Scramble!

Miss!

Santa, where are you going?

Heart Cutter!

Santa, where did you go? Come back!

Miss!

Miss! It's me, Sannosuke!

Where are you? Please respond!

Miss! Miss!

Miss! Miss!

Miss!

That was dangerous, but it's all right now.

Santa...

Way to ruin your beauty, though.

It's safe here. Wait here for a bit.

You bastards!

These flowers are not just mere asters!

They're my mother's... my mother's memories!

Damn it! Curse you, Sazorions!

I won't let you do as you please!

Gotta put out the fire...

It's the Orb!

There it is! Go, Pandaron!

That hurt!

Damn, despite the pretty two-tone coloring you're a nasty scumbag!{Damn you, you ugly two-tone monster! If you want some, you'll get some!}

Torajiro, hurry!

I know!

Magic Cards!

Blow Up, Ginguiser!

Go!

Paranormal Smash, go!

Now, Pandaron! Take the Orb!

Power up!

Go!

Huh? What the heck's up with that Orb?!

H-Hey, Santa! Where are you going?

Godo's gonna scold you again!

Sorry, Bro. Just this once.

Just this one time, sorry.

It's nothing short of a miracle that you escaped from those flames.

Someone saved me.

Right, the butler mentioned something about a giant robot.

No.

It was Santa. I saw it in a dream.

A red devil was about to engulf the yacht, but Santa was there.

Santa came and saved me.

He became a splendid young man and came to save me.

Oh, Miss...

Miss, you have to stay in bed!

I feel like Santa is somewhere very close.

Miss!

It's all right. It's better like this.

I don't know if she is my real mother or not, but I've made my decision.

She is my mom.

My mom... My mom...

She was a kind mother he saw in his dreams.

He wants to rest at her lap.

He wants to listen to her words.

"But I can't, because I must continue to protect Earth."

"I can't afford to feel lonely!"

"If I want to see her, I'll close my eyes and remember her kind face."

Mom!
