Original subtitles

Somebody's wounded soul is

burning in the lonely sky.

And eyes that have never known love...

...seek the reason hidden in the dark.

Tekkaman Blade

Just hold me close, and tell me how you feel.

As tears fall from your eyes for no reason

Love is endless violence... and this entire world...

...will be embraced by its last brilliance.

Ah... Who needs yesterday...

In the year 192 according to the Allied Earth Calendar...

...mankind is on the brink of extinction.

The Orbital Ring was built to realize mankind's...

...dream of venturing to other planets, but it has been occupied...

...by mysterious alien life-forms called the Radam.

Trapped on the ground, mankind has...

...no way of avoiding attacks from the Orbital Ring.

The land has been gutted, and cities have been destroyed.

Earth is steadily heading toward ruin.

TWIN BROTHERS DESTINED TO FIGHT

16 spaceships, bearing precious cargo such as energy plants...

...and metal ore, returned from the moon of Io today.

Of this second group of spaceships, two burst into flames...

...but the rest were able to land safely.

Brigadier General Colbert, supreme commander of this mission...

...had this to say about the success of the operation...

The significant goal we achieved during this operation was complete...

...destruction of the generators on the Orbital Ring with our own forces.

Because of this, the enemy can no longer cultivate Radam monsters.

And because their forces were so debilitated in battle...

...they were left unable to attack the transportation ships.

Man, it's because of Blade and us the energy generators were destroyed.

They're totally stealing our thunder!

Oh, never mind.

We should be glad that most of the spaceships made it safely from Io.

Just think how many more lives were saved!

She's right. I haven't felt so relieved in a long time.

Absolutely.

Hey, listen, Chief...

Just for today, can't you take us off emergency standby status?

All right, I don't think the Radam will make trouble for us anytime soon.

Yay! This is great!

It's our first day off in 3 months! I'm so excited I don't know what to do first!

Oh, Aki, let's go shopping, okay?

All right.

Just one thing...

You must come back by 3 p.m. Be sure to get back to base on time.

Only until 3 o'clock, huh? I thought the Chief was being too generous!

You won't have time to pick up girls... don't let that get you down, Noal!

Aren't you going out too, D-Boy?

Hey, you don't look happy at all... what gives?

It's still safe around here.

Walking around with ordinary people like this...

...it's easy to forget that we're always fighting the Radam!

If only we couldn't see that... it would be even easier.

Where should we start... clothes?

I'm going on a shopping spree!

Hey, will you guys let me play, too?

I'll treat you all to candy bars!

Okay!

Let's go!

Maybe we got a little carried away?

Hey! That stuffed animal's so cute!

No way, Milly! You're still not done shopping?

I'm sorry.

Come on! I almost dropped my things!

Well, I told you I was sorry... didn't you hear me?

Wait...

Huh?

It's you, Rebin!

Oh, it's you, Milly!

So you're here with Aki!

What are you doing, anyway?

What am I doing? Listen, I'm a longtime customer here, you know!

D-Boy!

What's the matter, Aki?

I just saw D-Boy...

D-Boy?

I'm sure it was him! I called to him but he didn't even turn around.

Well, it is D-Boy's first day off.

I'll bet he was just being shy. Maybe he wanted to be left alone.

He's so gorgeous whenever he transforms into Tekkaman...

...but otherwise he's a pretty gloomy guy.

Hey, D-Boy!

Didn't you go out?

No. Going into town wouldn't do anything for me.

Hey, D-Boy. Too much tension will wear you out.

You should try to relax.

Why don't you come back to my quarters?

What are you making?

A kite.

A kite?

Yes, someday, when it's peaceful here on Earth again...

...I'm going to fly them higher than anyone else.

Hey, do you want to try your hand at this?

Out on the town for the first time in a long time... I feel so refreshed!

You said it!

Same for you, too, D-Boy, right?

What are you talking about?

Hey, you don't have to hide it! Aki saw you in a department store.

Wasn't that you?

D-Boy was with me. We were right here, making kites.

Then I mistook you for someone else.

But he looked just like you.

Did he really look like me?

Yes...

It can't be!

I haven't been on Earth for a long time.

It may look different now, but these humans are as foolish as ever.

Can you sense me, Blade?

Can you sense me, Blade?

E-Evil!

What's the matter, D-Boy?

D-Boy!

D-Boy, where are you going?

Blade, I'm here! I'm right here!

These Radam trees are still asleep now...

...but soon they will all burst into bloom.

And when that happens, we Radam will...

Blade!

Tekkaman Evil... so you finally showed up.

Such an emotional reunion...

Why did you come down to Earth?

To eliminate the traitor...

...what other reason could there be?

Evil... so there's no way, is there?

There's no way you'll stop your assault on Earth?

It has to be done if we Radam are to survive.

Survival of the fittest... it's the same thing!

But all Tekkamen were once human beings! You and I were, too!

No, we're Radam.

As long as we're Radam...

...it stands to reason that we should work for the Radam cause.

You're the traitor... siding with the humans!

E-Evil!

Don't you agree, Big Brother Takaya?

Shinya!

Tek-setter!

Go to hell, Blade!

Pegas!

Roger!

Pegas has taken off!

D-Boy!

Something must have happened to D-Boy!

Chief!

Chief!

Space Knights... mobilize!

Roger!

Pegas!

Tek-setter!

Roger!

Tekkaman Blade!

Pegas has come to a halt.

What's his location?

Area F-22, in the Radam Forest.

It's close to the city where we were.

Dammit! What the hell's going on?

I'll take a look through Pegas's camera eye.

But that's...

It's the one who destroyed the Allied Defense Force spaceships in seconds!

What's the matter? You're leaving yourself wide open!

You shouldn't try so hard to be human. It makes you vulnerable!

That's more like it! That's what I expected of you, Big Brother.

Now it feels like a real battle.

You and I once shared our mother's womb, and now we fight each other.

Feels like you're battling yourself, doesn't it, Brother?

You and I are twins.

What was once one... split into two separate beings.

Whoever wins this battle should be the one to live on...

...if one of us survives, that is!

Blade!

I've found you out, Blade, now I know what your Achilles heel is!

D-Boy!

I see your friends have come to pick you up, Blade.

No matter... as I've just been struck by a brilliant idea.

I think I'm going to call it a day.

P-Pegas!

Pegas! Stop the Tek-Set!

Roger!

Noal! We've got to get D-Boy...

I know!

D-Boy!

Hang in there, D-Boy!

Who the hell was that, anyway? Is he after you or something?

What's going on? Please, you've got to tell us, D-Boy!

Are there even more Tekkamen out there? Why won't you talk to us?

D-Boy!

D-Boy!

D-Boy!

Cold as ice... my motherland...

Tell me the reason for your sorrow.

Will there never be an end to this battle?

I don't need any sweet dreams right now.

Ah... I'm going to rip out the pages of

my memory until yesterday...

Ah... And search for the path beyond these tears.

Two brothers are reunited in the place they spent their childhood, but...

...this innocent past becomes a trap in Evil's hands.
