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 the people were leading lives of fear.

After five months of wandering alone...

...D-Boy was reunited with Aki and the others, and they all set off on...

...a search for the crystals owned by Axe, Sword and Lance...

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

Damn!

My scar's aching.

I guess that means Blade's coming.

This time for sure... we'll be able to fight face to face...

...without anyone getting in our way.

We're crossing over the Dover Strait.

I just hope the computer analysis checks out and we find Axe there!

Don't worry!

I've input all the data on the appearance and distribution of the...

...Radam, as well as Axe's path of flight, etcetera.

The probability of Axe being in England is about 96%.

That means the danger index is 96%, too.

This time around, we can't afford to let our guard down, you know.

Jeez, you really did a number on poor Sol Tekkaman!

What did you do, use him as a scarecrow?

Don't throw a hissy fit, now.

Those scratches are all medals for making it through hell so many times.

You don't have to tell me!

That's why I'm trying to power it up as well as repair it.

Hey, Pegas, tilt it a little. I can't see inside.

Roger.

You overdid it!

You really are a klutz!

A klutz?

I don't understand. That word has not been entered into my memory.

Oh... no?

Listening to music? How unusual, D-Boy!

What are you thinking about?

A lot of things.

Like what?

This was one of Shinya's favorite songs, too.

A song from your memories...

Are you recovering, Evil? Has your wound healed yet?

About 80%.

But of course, I'm just being extra cautious.

Because you protected Axe, Sword, and Lance by using...

...Psi-Voltekker's energy at maximum power when Rapier self-destructed...

...Earth is about to fall under our control as planned.

So rest yourself sufficiently.

Well, if I rest for too long, I'll lose my edge for battle.

Restless as always...

You have nothing to fear... your Tekkaman form is superior to Blade's.

I don't know about that, Big Brother Kengo.

What makes you say that, Shinya?

In first place, Shinya Aiba with a time of 10.90.

In second place, Takaya Aiba with a time of 10.91.

You did it, Shinya! Congratulations.

I thought you'd beaten me.

What are you talking about?

You won because you practice every single day.

Hey, what are you doing, Shinya?

Look, Goddard. Takaya loses and he's the one getting excited...

...and Shinya wins, but looks displeased as usual.

Master Shinya always strives for perfection.

Still, nothing beats two brothers competing for first place!

If I'd lost, I would've been too angry to even look at his face. Besides...

Besides?

I'm not sure that Takaya was really going all-out in that race.

Even though I always gave it my best effort, I could never beat Shinya.

He couldn't stand losing even by a fraction of a second...

...so he always kept himself in perfect condition.

Unlike our Dangerous Boy who lives by taking his chances, your...

...brother was a Perfect Boy aiming for 100% at all times, wasn't he?

Right.

Seeing the way Shinya would go all- out no matter what the challenge...

...I was sure I could never defeat him.

It was right that I lost to him every time.

If Big Brother Takaya put in as much effort as I did...

...then he would defeat me. Sometimes that thought crosses my mind.

Both Master Takaya and Master Shinya were born with exceptional talent...

...one's an eagle, the other's a hawk.

The only difference between them is that...

...Master Takaya was capable of developing his skills on his own...

...but Master Shinya, on the other hand, needed coaching.

Try flipping me, Master Shinya!

Or are you ready to give up?

Not... not yet!

Father, Miyuki, and our mother, who died before I was...

...old enough to truly remember...

...they all loved Takaya better than me, because of his cheerful personality.

So did you, right?

You're imagining things.

No, I know you did. Don't you remember?

Back then, I spent more time with Goddard than with the family.

You mean Axe?

Right hand! The right! Use your feet!

Don't just punch with your hands.

If you're out of steam already, you'll never beat Master Takaya!

That's the spirit.

One more time... bring it!

Goddard was our father's assistant. Now he's known as Tekkaman Axe...

He was always hanging around Shinya, and taught him everything.

He was an electronics expert, but he loved martial arts.

And he seemed more suited to that kind of life.

Whenever Master Shinya, I mean Lord Evil... fights Blade, he loses his cool.

There's no telling how a showdown between an eagle and a hawk will end.

But I'm sure that I can force Blade...

...into submission and get him to join the Radam.

By the time this beard grows out, Blade will come.

And that's when he'll pledge his loyalty to the Radam!

The moon's the color of blood tonight.

Seems a little ominous...

It happened just before we left for outer space on the Argos.

As part of our survival training...

...we hiked up a mountain with our father and Goddard.

The rain's coming down hard now.

Even though it was fine a minute ago.

The weather can be unpredictable in the mountains...

...but I never thought it'd change so abruptly.

I figured we'd make it down before the rain, but I guess I was wrong.

Not to worry! Just give it an hour or so and the sun'll come out again.

But it didn't stop raining, no matter how long we waited.

Our refuge was getting flooded, so...

...we tried to move to higher ground. And then...

Takaya!

Master Shinya!

Are you okay, Shinya?

Somehow, yeah.

But we're not gonna last long...

I was powerless before Nature.

Human wisdom and effort were useless against the power of Nature.

So I gave up completely. But Big Brother Takaya...

Takaya didn't give up?

That's right. Far from giving up, he even tried to encourage me.

Don't give up, Shinya. It won't do us any good to give up hope.

That's right.

As long as you have hope, you can somehow find your inner strength.

It was all bravado.

I was just as scared as Shinya...

And what happened after that?

Luckily, the driftwood got snagged on a rock.

And my father and Goddard were able to find us.

I'm going to save you now. Hold on!

Dr. Aiba! Hurry! The driftwood is starting to come loose.

I thought Father would save Takaya first. Of course he would...

But...

Shinya, grab hold of my hand.

What?

What are you waiting for, Shinya? Hurry up!

Big Brother Takaya!

Big Brother!

Climb up on your own!

Takaya! You know you can do it!

Takaya!

You've got to climb up on your own! You can do it!

That's good! Hurry! Before you get swept away!

When Father saved me first, the truth is... that really made me happy.

But then I realized it was only because he thought I needed help...

...while Takaya could overcome adversity by himself.

When push came to shove, he rose to the occasion better than I could.

That's why you're afraid of Takaya, or rather... Blade?

I guess you can call it an inferiority complex.

This feeling won't disappear until I defeat Takaya with my own hands.

There's no reason for us to both exist as twins.

It should only be one or the other who survives!

Evil...

Perhaps you would've been better off if our roles had been reversed.

If I could move from here, I would've killed Blade with my own hands.

What's that?

It's Miyuki's crystal.

Miyuki didn't lose her human heart even after she became a Tekkaman.

Somewhere deep inside, Shinya and Goddard must still be...

...who they used to be.

They're just obeying their Radam instincts... that explains their actions.

The invasion of Earth, too?

Yes.

But I'm going to strike them all down.

Axe, Evil, and Omega...

...with my own hands.

To do that, I've got to get a complete crystal, and...

...reach the Radam base on the dark side of the moon as soon as I can.

Yes.

I'm all done now!

What do you say? Pretty sexy, isn't it?

Hey, I like it. This one looks like a hard worker!

You don't have to give me a thank you kiss, Balzak! I really don't mind.

Oh, well, too bad!

No!

Psi-Voltekker!

We're all set now, Evil.

You can kill Blade now... without fail.

I'm ready, Blade!

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.

At last, D-Boy and the other Space Knights have found Axe.

And D-Boy must overcome not only the past, but also his old mentor...

...in the battle about to begin.
