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!

What did you say?

DARK will break into the Yokohama Gold Repository?!

That's nonsense!

It's true! They'll break in at nine tonight!

It's already past nine.

I'm not lying! Please believe me!

What is it?

Sir! Someone broke into the Yokohama Gold Repository!

What?!

Excellent.

Now... Destroy the institute!

Understood!

Lone Monster and Cub: Black Echidna

There, you see?

DARK plans to blow up the nuclear research institute!

Well? Do you believe me now?!

Who is that?!

Who is that woman trying to stop DARK's plans?!

- Intelligence! - Sir.

Check our blacklist.

Sir.

Who's there?!

Get them!

This isn't good!

We must silence the drones. Activate self-destruction!

Where'd they go?!

Where'd they go? Find them!

- Intelligence! - Sir.

Nothing yet on the woman?

Sir! We've identified her! She is Kazuko Momoyama.

Her husband was Dr. Momoyama, a DARK explosives researcher.

What? Dr. Momoyama?!

Sir.

Damn that Momoyama...

He was a member of DARK, but he tried to rebel,

so I had him executed three months ago.

I see. So it was Momoyama...

He gave that woman DARK's Target List!

Black Echidna!

Yes, sir! I understand, Professor Gill!

I shall retrieve the Target List from the woman!

Allow me to take care of it!

Another job, Daddy?

Yeah... Come with me.

My work suffers when you're not around.

I guess I'll have to.

Thank you.

C'mon. Let's go.

Okay.

Bye-bye!

Thank you very much!

Thank you for coming.

Welcome back.

Closing?

Yes.

You've been a tremendous help.

I was about to close this place for good.

As you know, I have other things I need to focus on now.

With DARK?

If you're trying to probe DARK's secrets... don't.

It's dangerous.

Why do you say that? Do you know about DARK?

I believe there's a lethal poison behind that name.

Though I can't remember why I think that.

Anyway, it's too dangerous. Don't do it!

I'm well aware of the danger.

But I must expose DARK's secrets to avenge my husband's death.

But you've left Mayumi in the orphanage!

I realize she misses me,

but it's to keep her out of danger!

I'm sure Mayumi understands.

Please take these Girl's Day dolls to Mayumi's orphanage.

I will.

You must miss her...

You know why I cannot go to see her.

This is very important. Please make sure she gets it.

I feel like something terrible is about to happen...

And that these dolls are the key.

It's microfilm.

Okay, Mayumi! Everyone else, too!

Have your teacher set these up for you!

Okay!

Happy, Mayumi?

Yeah.

I wanna see!

Not that I ignored her orders, but I sense that this microfilm

will endanger Mayumi and the other children.

It'd be best if I disposed of it,

even if it puts me in danger.

I am DARK Destructoid Black Echidna!

Kazuko Momoyama! Hand over DARK's Target List!

Die!

Black Echidna Killer Spines!

It's horrible, but there's nothing I can do.

You're next! Hand it over, or die!

Help!

Black Echidna Missiles!

Stop it, Black Echidna!

Damn... Get him!

Die!

Damn...

What were you trying to do, Black Echidna?!

None of your business! Die, Kikaider!

Die!

Double Chop!

We'll meet again, Kikaider!

Damn! He got away!

You really are hopeless without me, Daddy.

The lonely, hungry north wind blows You really are hopeless without me, Daddy.

The lonely, hungry north wind blows Yeah.

The lonely, hungry north wind blows You're my personal mechanic. You and I are inseparable!

It strokes my short cut hair You're my personal mechanic. You and I are inseparable!

It strokes my short cut hair

Where has my father gone to?

Where has my father gone to? All fixed, Daddy. Next time, don't lose, okay?

He's off, working as a Killer...

He's off, working as a Killer... Count on it!

He's off, working as a Killer...

I slay others, hiding my tears

I await the day when I can return

In this wind, even my child will turn to dust

In this wind, even my child will turn to dust

Ah, Daigoro, you're only three years old

What?! You say that woman has a daughter?

Yes, sir.

A seven-year-old.

That must mean...

That woman may have sensed the danger she was in

and left DARK's Target List with her daughter.

All right.

Send Tiny Echidna to the orphanage...

Have her find the Target List.

Is Mayumi really in danger?

Yes. That's why we came to protect Mayumi.

But why is Mayumi in danger?

I don't know.

I've asked Mitsuko and Hanpei for their help.

What's that child doing?

What's your name?

Nanako.

Hi, Nanako!

That's cute.

You mean this? I am a girl, after all.

You can have it.

Does it look pretty on me?

Humans are so lucky...

Tomorrow's going to be fun. It's Girl's Day!

Aunty Mitsuko is making sweet white saké!

There'll be lots of sweets, too!

Can I join you?

Of course!

I'm so happy...

What's the matter, Nanako?

Mayumi, time to go to sleep.

Okay!

Let's go to sleep.

Good night!

Good night.

How was she?

Well... She seemed to be having fun with Mayumi.

Really?

Kaoru, I've checked everywhere,

but I can't figure out why DARK would be after Mayumi.

Did anything unusual happen in the last few days?

There were those Girl's Day dolls...

Girl's Day dolls?

A middle-aged man brought them for Mayumi.

Girl's Day dolls...

Got it!

Tell me more, Kaoru.

Right...

My... What a terrible thing to happen.

These dolls were what they came for.

DARK wanted whatever was inside here.

What?! DARK's Target List wasn't there?

Damn...

Take the girl hostage and force the woman to talk!

Yes, sir!

I'm scared! Help!

Stop it, Daddy!

- Let me go! - What are you doing?

- Help me! - Out of my way! DARK needs this child!

- I'm scared! - No!

You're disobeying your father!

- Move. Move. Move! - Stupid Daddy!

- What are you doing?! - Run away!

Hey! Come back here! Wait! Wait!

Stop!

You...

You've shown yourself... Black Echidna!

That's absurd. I just came to see my daughter.

Look at your shadow!

Damn her... She's betrayed DARK!

But no matter.

Kill Black Echidna's daughter... Kill Tiny Echidna!

Black Echidna Missiles!

Damn! Where'd he go?

Let's see...

Got you!

Found you!

There she is!

I'm scared!

- Don't let them get away! Kill her! - I'm scared!

Are you going to kill me?

That's right. You've betrayed DARK!

Die!

W-Wait!

- Don't do this! Wait! - Daddy! I'm afraid!

Don't kill my daughter!

But... it's Professor Gill's orders!

Wait! I'll destroy Kikaider, even if it costs me my life!

So, please... Spare my daughter!

You'll give me a chance?

- Come with me! - I'm scared!

- I'm scared! - Stop it, Daddy!

Someone help!

Where is he?

Curse you, Kikaider!

Up there!

DARK Destructoid Black Echidna!

I'm the one you want! Let's fight!

Die!

Those born of DARK must return to DARK.

Come back to DARK!

Your end is near, Kikaider! I'll bury you alive!

Echidna Dust Storm!

Jiro was in dire trouble.

Being buried alive, however, shut out Professor Gill's flute.

With his remaining strength, Jiro changes into Kikaider.

The empress with her white face...

Looks like my sister when she was a bride... Let me ask one more time.

Looks like my sister when she was a bride... Are you the only one who knows about the microfilm?

Are you the only one who knows about the microfilm?

Actually, there was that man...

Dr. Komyoji?

He called DARK "lethal poison."

Could he have taken the microfilm from the doll?

The day when it's reflecting off the gold folding screen... Could he have taken the microfilm from the doll?

Could he have taken the microfilm from the doll?

Dr. Komyoji...

Kikaider defeated DARK's Destructoid, Black Echidna.

But where is Dr. Komyoji?

When would they all find happiness?

Jiro continues on his endless quest.
