Tekkaman Blade

My fingertips are stained with blood

and nothing can stop them...

...until the day it's over, once and for all.

Destiny gone mad...

Even though I've stumbled into this eternal loneliness...

...somewhere deep down inside I can smile.

Only this battle can set me free.

Now that I no longer have anything more to lose...

...I'm never going to give up the chase

and I'll reclaim the future for myself.

I know that my soul

will find its way back to this planet someday.

Until the day this body of mine

finally shatters into pieces...

The Space Knights' base fell and vanished from the face of the Earth...

...on May 6 in the Year 192 by the Allied Earth Calendar.

The planet had been ravaged, and people were leading lives of fear.

After five months wandering D-Boy was reunited with Aki and the others.

They set off to search for the crystals owned by Axe, Sword and Lance...

...to enable them to get to the moon, where the Radam base is located.

REUNION IN THE WILDERNESS

Now's your chance, Noal!

Leave it to me!

Look out, Noal!

I owe you one, D-Boy.

I'm all right now.

Thank you so much!

Well, well, she's like a lily that blooms in the wilderness.

We came here because we heard there's a town nearby.

Yes, there used to be, until three months ago. But...

The Radam?

Yes.

That's not good. I guess we're not going to be refueling, then.

That was a close shave.

Excuse me! You mean it was a close shave for me!

You just dropped all of the potatoes we're having for supper!

What? Potatoes again!

Don't get so high and mighty, missy! I'm doing everything I can with...

...the little I have to work with! You little potato girl!

Oh, Rebin, you're so mean!

Well, if you don't mind coming to my place, you're more than welcome!

What?

Although I can't really offer you much...

But we don't want to trouble you...

No, it's to thank you for saving me.

Oh, great! Noal, let's accept her offer.

Yeah, we're tired of bachelor cooking, right?

Hey, no fair!

What?

You're snacking!

Here you go. This is between you and me.

Yummy!

Huh? A car just stopped.

It's Big Sister Lille!

Lille!

Welcome back.

I'm home, Rick.

Oh? You brought some guests?

Rick, don't forget your manners, now.

Good evening.

Do you live here alone with your brother?

No, with that man, too.

Too bad, she's got a man.

Oh, please, Noal.

Well, long time no see.

Boys and girls of the Space Knights...

...and D-Boy!

B-Balzak!

This has to be fate. Who ever think we'd meet out here in the boonies!

Damn you! How dare you...

I'll bet you're hungry. Lille is a great cook, you know.

Come on, Rick.

Okay!

Everyone, please come this way.

Mmm... this is one of my favorites!

Gotcha!

Hey, that's mine!

Well, first come, first served!

Milly, if you eat so much, you'll get... fat!

And by the end of this journey, you'll be a piglet!

So what? People my age have healthy appetites!

Besides, I'm not like you, Rebin... you put on pounds every time you eat!

Your table manners are terrible!

But that's because...

Don't worry. We have plenty of food.

Besides, we haven't had such a cheerful meal in a long time.

Oh, perhaps you don't care for it?

Oh, don't mind him. He's just a man of few words.

Hey, D-Boy, you're so clueless. Say anything! Like, "This is great!"

Well, I find it amazing that you and Balzak know each other.

It's awesome that Big Brother Balzak is friends with Tekkaman Blade!

Friends?

Hey, what's the matter? You are friends, aren't you?

That's right, Balzak is our friend.

That's great! Big Brother Balzak is friends with Blade!

Cool, oops...

Now, Rick, you shouldn't get so excited.

I'm sorry.

So Balzak, what have you been up to since Operation Heaven?

As you can see, I survived... isn't that enough for you?

Don't give us that attitude!

Noal!

Well...

I've got to get up early tomorrow morning, so I'm going to turn in.

I finally got Rick to bed.

Did you?

Anyway, I was very surprised today.

I never dreamed you were a member of the Space Knights.

Fallen in love with me again?

Oh, stop!

Well, I really owe you a lot... both you and Rick.

I was a wild beast who couldn't stop fighting for power and glory back then.

And when I realized that I was only going after a house of cards...

I was left with nothing in my hands...

Nothing at all...

Am I going to die?

Here... in a place like this?

Well, that's life, isn't it?

Right, Marlo?

Lille! There's a man lying here hurt!

He's seriously wounded!

Where am I?

So am I still alive?

I started crying before I could stop myself...

...looking out at the sunset, which had dyed everything bright red.

I don't know why, but it was as if a storm of emotion burst inside me.

I just stood there... and I cried and cried.

Every stroke of my hoe into this magnificent land let me take back...

...my human heart, bit by bit.

I'm going to keep on protecting both you and Rick, forever and ever.

Balzak...

Marlo...

Marlo... just what were you and I searching for?

Now that I've lost everything, I think I know what it is.

Marlo, I can't keep the promise I made you...

...but I know you understand.

Now that I have... I have someone to protect...

...someone to protect...

To protect!

I want to fight!

I want to fight and strike down the Radam!

The Radam who killed you!

D-Boy!

What are you doing up at this hour?

Balzak...

I just can't seem to get to sleep tonight.

Well, good night, then, D-Boy.

Balzak, the Radam base is on the dark side of the moon.

If we can just steal one of the Tekkaman crystals...

...we can go to the moon using the crystal's power.

Are you sure?

Can we really beat the Radam, if we get our hands on that crystal?

I'm sorry.

It's a bad habit of mine... getting all worked up.

The Radam mean nothing to me anymore.

I'm sorry, D-Boy.

Balzak...

Balzak...

Well, let's get started!

It's gonna be another hot day!

Balzak...

Noal! Axe is here!

What? How did he find out where we are?

Aki, take care of Lille and Rick! Milly, open the hatch!

Roger!

Pegas, Tek-Setter!

Roger!

Tekkaman Blade!

Axe!

Blade!

How fortunate to have found you here.

Go to hell!

Dammit!

There's a whole swarm of Radam, but I'm down to my last cartridge!

Oh...

Balzak!

Lille, look out!

Balzak!

Lille!

Are you all right, Lille?

Do you remember, Balzak?

The first time you worked in the fields here?

Yes...

A man of your size and strength and yet...

...you were completely worn out after 10 minutes in the field.

I used to wonder what kind of work you did before you came here...

And I also thought that... maybe there was something important...

...something important that you still had to do...

...and that someday, you'd probably be leaving us.

Lille!

Go on, Balzak.

I want you to go on... be true to yourself now and fight!

I want you to be true to yourself now.

I'll wait for you for the rest of my life.

Lille!

I think our little game is over, Blade.

D-Boy!

And I'm out of ammo!

What's that?

Balzak!

Pretty lame, Noal! You still haven't mastered that machine?

So sue me!

There's more than one way... to use Sol Tekkaman!

What the... Ugh!

Axe!

Curses! We'll settle this score next time, Blade!

Hey!

Have you come to see us off?

You really helped us out a lot...

That was nothing. Next time, you're going to be looking out for me!

Huh? What do you mean?

What do you mean?

You people are a bit thick. I mean I'm coming along.

Are you crazy? We can't take a shady character like you!

Of course, I mean to pay my way.

What if I give you the Fermion power packs I hoarded away?

You do have a desperate need for it, don't you, Noal?

Damn you!

That'll help a lot.

D-Boy!

It's settled, then.

Fine.

But that still doesn't mean I trust you.

One false move, and I'm going to beat you to a pulp, got that?

Roger!

Rick, take care of your big sister for me.

Okay.

Lille...

Take care of yourself.

D-Boy...

Why were you so understanding with him just now?

What are you talking about?

You know... Balzak.

He has the same eyes as I do.

What?

Balzak... I believe in you.

You'll make the world a place where we can live in peace with our child...

In a dream I had last night, I saw your smiling face.

But when I opened my eyes,

it was still the same as yesterday.

Forgetting what kindness is, I close off my heart.

All the pain and hatred raining down day after day.

On the eve of his battle with Axe, D-Boy looks back on his past.

And Shinya, despite sharing many of the same memories...

...continues his relentless plan of attack.
