Switch on! 1-2-3!

Electric sparks rush through his body

Jiro, change! Become Kikaider!

Stand against the robots of DARK!

Android Kikaider!

Change, change!

Go, go, go, go!

Go, go, go!

The late Dr. Araki's completed conscience circuit schematic

is currently hidden in Masaru's red shoes.

Masaru, however, was unaware of this. He was also all on his own.

Mitsuko's rash attempt to test Jiro's love

had placed Masaru's life in grave danger.

Were Jiro to acquire the plans, his conscience circuit would be complete.

Professor Gill, having realized this, ordered Green Sponge to seize the schematic.

Green Sponge's Third Revival

Help!

A DARK Destructoid is after me!

DARK?

No! Let me go!

Let me go!

Brat!

Masaru?

He's not here.

That truck was headed to Tokyo.

Masaru will be somewhere in Tokyo.

I was sure he'd come here...

If Masaru wanted to meet up with us,

he'd come here, where Father raised us.

Maybe Masaru doesn't want to see us anymore.

That can't be!

It's all my fault. If only I hadn't done what I did!

Don't do that.

Blaming yourself won't do any good.

No...

I forgot all about Masaru and thought only of myself.

Your feelings for me were all I was concerned about.

What's wrong, son?

You look like there's a murderer chasing you.

Stay away, DARK!

DARK? Are they chasing you?

Stay away! You won't trick me again!

What are you talking about?!

If DARK is after you, I'll take you to safety.

No!

Stop, son!

Son! Hey, son!

I am DARK Destructoid Green Sponge!

Hey! Keep away from the boy!

Please. Your little toy can't hurt Green Sponge!

Now it's my turn.

Sponge Slime!

Dr. Komyoji, who now worked as a taxi driver,

stopped for a break at a park after dropping off

the mysterious man from the hot spring in Izu.

There he is again. Something about him bothers me...

What's he up to now?

Playing hide-and-seek when everyone's so worried...

Masaru! Hey, Masaru!

Eh?

What, practicing your baseball signs?

Okay, I'll play ninja-style.

Oh, no. He's after that boy!

That's enough for now, Masaru. I'll give you a ride back. C'mon.

Masaru! Why're you running away?

Who are you?!

What were you going to do to that boy?!

What?!

Wait, Masaru!

Look out!

I'll help you. Hop in.

That busker is after you, right? Get in!

Masaru!

Masaru! Masaru!

Who's she calling a busker?

And when did Masaru find a girlfriend?

Where'd that brat go, busker?

That way.

Who're you supposed to be? Charlie Chaplin?

Shut up!

The boy in the red shoes... Ran off with his girlfriend!

Masaru? That boy's name is Masaru...

I've heard that name before.

This is Green Sponge's doing. He's still nearby.

Father...

Where are you, Father?

Come back and tell me what I should do!

I'm in love with Jiro and I don't know what to do!

Father...

Is it wrong to worry more about the man you love...

...than about your own brother?

I want to complete Jiro's conscience circuit!

Let me guess...

Guess what?

Why you ran away.

You ran away from home, right?

I did?

Don't try to hide it. I know these things.

Adults just don't understand.

It's no fun going to school in a limo.

That's why I know how you feel.

I know, I'll run away with you!

In your chauffeur-driven limo?

"How" doesn't matter!

Remember, I'm the one who helped you.

Aoki, turn up ahead. I've decided to run away.

No, miss!

Do as I say!

What will you give me for helping you?

I know.

Those red shoes aren't your style. I'll get you a new pair.

Aoki, stop at the first shoe store you come to.

I love the outdoors!

This is so much nicer than crowded Tokyo!

I had a fight with my older sister!

I do that all the time with my family.

Papa, Mama, and my older sister... Adults are terrible!

Don't you agree?

Yeah. I hate both Jiro and Sis!

Young people like us really do think alike.

Adults are all selfish.

Right! They think only of themselves!

Papa and Mama say I'm the selfish one.

I want to teach them a lesson.

I wouldn't use my limo and driver to run away, though.

Silly! Children can't drive, you know.

Where are we going from here?

Who cares? If we have to, we can camp in the car.

Okay. Let's go somewhere without any adults!

Good idea. We'll find a place just for children!

Just for children... I like that. Let's go!

Okay!

I'm getting tired. Carry me.

Me?

Who else? You're the only one here.

I'm here, too!

Help! Papa!

Help me up, Masaru!

Carry me!

Run!

But I'm tired! Carry me!

Run by yourself!

Sponge Illusions!

Oh, no!

Help!

Here we go!

Sponge...

Kikaider? Show yourself!

Back again, Green Sponge?

I'll make you pay for hurting children!

Fool! I can't be destroyed!

Get him!

Jiro!

Jiro!

Kikaider can't destroy me!

Fight me!

Destroy him!

Kill him! Kill him!

Kill Kikaider!

Damn. Where'd they go?!

Kill him!

Sponge Roller Ball!

Drat!

Masaru...

Masaru!

My body never dies!

Pardon me.

Did you see two children around here?

I'm afraid not.

A girl in a red dress and a boy about ten.

What will you do?

You want to go to him, right? I can tell.

And I heard you call "Papa"! You miss home already.

Not me!

You're jealous because you don't have a father.

My dad is alive, somewhere!

Let's go. We don't need grownups' help.

Right.

I'm exhausted. It's all your fault.

Mine? How's that?

It's these shoes. They're wearing me out.

I hate them.

Let's go to the house where you used to live.

Weren't we going to find our own place?

We can do that tomorrow.

Aoki, ask him for directions and take us there.

Did you hear me, Aoki?

Yes. I sure did.

DARK!

Who are you?! Let us out right now!

Hey, watch it! Don't hog the road!

Oh, it's you, Mr. Chaplin...

We meet again, busker!

So we do.

Quickly!

The red shoes...

Red shoes!

It really is!

What do I do? This makes me a target!

I should throw this away!

But... Mr. Jiro needs this!

But I'm in deep trouble if I keep it!

What do 1 do?!

I knew it!

Help!

Masaru!

- Help! - Sis!

Over here!

Masaru doesn't have the schematic!

What?! Never mind, I'll kill you all, anyway!

Help! Help!

- Hanpei! - Mitsuko! I've got the schematic!

What?!

Sponge Fireballs!

Don't shoot me!

Ouch, it's hot!

The schematic!

Oh, no!

Now I'll really get rid of all of you!

Kikaider again?!

Where is he?

Where is he? Where is he?

Up there!

Green Sponge!

This time I'm putting an end to it!

You forgot, I can't be killed! Try me!

Get Kikaider!

Get rid of him!

Cha-!

Those born of DARK must return to DARK.

Come back to DARK!

Professor Gill's evil flute torments Jiro.

If he succumbs, Jiro will become a follower of DARK.

Suffer!

Sponge Fireball!

Fortunately, the roaring flames masked the sound of Gill's flute.

Jiro changes into Kikaider!

Now!

Change!

Switch On!

Go, go, go, go! Denji End!

Go, go, go, go!

Jiro!

Mr. Jiro!

Jiro, I'm afraid the conscience circuit schematic was...

That's all right.

If my conscience circuit were to become complete,

I'd be a machine superior to humans.

I prefer to be closer to human.

Jiro...

Masaru, don't run away from Mitsuko again.

Masaru!

Jiro was very concerned about you!

Much more than about me!

I hate both Jiro and you!

Masaru!

I don't need adults to help me.

I'll live independently, like you!

Papal!

Kaoru!

Papal!

Kaoru!

I'm so glad you're all right!

There, there, dear...

Sis!

Forgive me. But please, Masaru...

Tell Jiro you won't run away again.

Okay?

Let's all work together to find Father. Okay?

Okay.

Kikaider defeated DARK Destructoid Green Sponge.

But where is Dr. Komyoji?

When would they all find happiness?

Jiro continues on his endless quest.
