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...

Thanks to a successful operation by Blade and the Space Knights...

...the Orbital Ring is back under mankind's control again.

But D-Boy is suffering from nerve damage...

...as the price of evolving into Tekkaman Blaster...

...losing parts of his memory each time he goes into battle.

And the Radam trees have now covered the entire planet.

The time is drawing near when they will...

...blossom at once, transforming all humans into Tekkamen.

Mankind and Earth are slowly ascending the stairway to extinction.

THE HOUSE IN WHICH TIME STOOD STILL

What did you say?

We're to evacuate all mankind to the Orbital Ring?

Yes, sir, the Radam have completely abandoned the Orbital Ring.

It's safe for now.

We're requesting that you inform as many people in your city...

...as possible and get them to take refuge, using any possible means.

That will be difficult.

But why?

Please don't take this the wrong way.

After all, Mr. Freeman came to our rescue so many times, and I'm sure...

...he has his reasons.

Of course we'd like to comply with the instructions. But...

But?

Look outside.

In the week since the Radam monsters disappeared...

...the frightened citizens have gotten their lives in order...

...and started to rebuild the city.

How can I tell them to abandon the city and...

...go back living the way they were before?

The only thing we really fear are the Radam plants...

...but at present they seem quite harmless.

Or do you Space Knights have information that we don't?

I have no choice, but please keep this to yourself.

What? No... it can't be true.

I'm sorry to tell you this, but it is. Our research is 100% accurate.

But...

There's no time to lose! Please help as many people as you can!

I see... I'll do my best.

It's such a hassle, having to visit each city one by one.

If only we could go public with this to all of the cities.

But if the people find out the Radam trees' true purpose...

...it would cause an uproar...

Right.

So I guess we have no choice but to press on, right?

Until the Orbital Ring is completely restored...

...and the communication system is up and running again.

So what kind of favor are you asking for, D-Boy?

What's the matter?

It's not like you to hold back like this.

Well, Noal...

You're flying to the Far East today, aren't you?

That's right. It's northbound to Manila, Peking and then Tokyo.

It's like I'm traveling around the world on the run everyday.

So tell me, what's up?

Will you let me take on that job?

Huh? What are you talking about?

But what about your condition?

Resting isn't going to do any good.

That's true, but...

Please, Noal!

Okay. I got it.

Well, tell Aki I've got to bail because I have a cold or something.

I owe you one, Noal.

D-Boy.

D-Boy?

What's wrong, D-Boy? Is there something on your mind?

Oh, it's nothing.

I want to ask you for a favor.

What?

After we finish our job, an hour, no... half an hour should be fine...

...would you mind stopping somewhere with me?

Roger!

Where are we? Wait, don't tell me this is...

It's my house.

It's just as we left it. Two years ago...

The day we set off for outer space.

D-Boy...

Aki, would you like some coffee?

What?

It's my house, after all. I remember where we kept the coffee, at least.

No, thank you.

Oh? You mean that?

It's unusual, isn't it? To have a study in the living room.

Yes...

My father was a strange kind of scholar.

He said he could get more done listening to his kids' voices...

...than working alone in his study.

So he put his desk here.

Of course, he complained a lot later, saying he'd made a mistake.

Hey, here's Dad's pipe.

He made a big deal out of it losing it somewhere on the Argos...

...but he just left it at home.

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

What?

What's going on, you two?

Happy Birthday!

Oh, is this a present from you?

Can I open it?

Yes!

Well! Look at this!

Big Brother Kengo, Shinya and I pooled our money to buy it!

Hey, don't act so high and mighty!

You could only put in 50 yen, Big Brother Takaya!

Hey! You promised not to tell!

It's your fault for deciding on a pipe without telling us!

Thank you very much, boys.

This will be my greatest treasure.

I'm glad he likes it.

Don't lose it, Dad.

Takaya, your mission is to destroy Shinya and Miyuki...

...whose bodies have been possessed by the Radam.

No!

Farewell, Takaya.

Starting today, you're to forget that name.

Your enemy is the invading Radam... they're not your siblings!

Dad!

Big Brother Kengo! Shinya! Miyuki!

Dad...

D-Boy...

Hey! Aki, do you want to see Big Brother Kengo's room?

Who's Kengo?

My older brother. He's the oldest son in our family.

He turned into Tekkaman Omega.

No... no, thank you.

How about Miyuki's room, then?

You did meet Miyuki, didn't you?

D-Boy!

D-Boy, what are you doing?

These memories are only making you suffer!

D-Boy!

It's on the second floor, Aki. Let's go.

I'm sorry.

Aki, please come with me.

Won't you please come with me?

Going alone will be too sad.

D... D-Boy!

What... what do you mean by doing this, D-Boy?

Big Brother Kengo!

Please let me out, Big Brother Kengo!

Let me out of here, please!

I don't care if it costs me my life.

No matter what, I'm going to kill Blade!

So please...

...give me the power...

...the power to beat Takaya...

Are you sure?

You're sure you can risk death to kill Blade?

Can you give me your word on that, Lord Evil?

Feng?

Yes, as long as I can defeat Takaya...

...I have no fear of death.

So, please... so, please, give me the power!

Very well.

How do you feel now, Lord Evil?

Sword...

Why?

Why did you let me out?

I don't know.

At any rate, it's none of your concern, Lord Evil.

My crystal...

Now, then, Lord Evil.

Now that Lord Omega is one with the ship in a deep sleep...

...there is no one to stop you.

You are free to kill Blade!

Thank you, Sword.

Just wait for me, Blade!

Really, Big Brother Takaya!

I told you to knock before you came in here!

This house... it's so strange.

The people who lived here are no longer in this world...

...but it still smells like Miyuki.

You want this pain to stop, don't you?

Miyuki!

Miyuki!

Blade!

Miyuki!

I won't let you kill them...

Big Brother Takaya...

D-Boy...

Where are you going, D-Boy?

To Shinya's room.

D-Boy...

Let's go back now.

We shouldn't stay here any longer.

D-Boy!

Stop it, please, D-Boy!

You're acting so strangely today. Why...

Why are you making yourself suffer like this?

Shinya... Shinya's room is...

You and I are twins. What was one... split into two separate beings.

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

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

D-Boy!

D-Boy!

Hey, what are you doing, D-Boy?

It's buried here... a time capsule from when we were ten years old.

We promised to open it together, when we turned twenty.

Shinya and I...

The micro-recorder.

Big Brother! Big Brother Takaya!

It's me... Shinya.

You're listening to this now as a grownup.

I don't know, that seems so strange.

I wonder what you and I are doing now... and where?

We're still friends, aren't we?

Don't tell me we're fighting or anything.

I'm saying this because Big Brother Kengo just told me...

...something mean. That it's hard to be a grownup, so we'll change.

That can't be true, can it?

We won't change no matter how old we get.

It won't change how much I love you, because we're twins.

Because you and I started out as one boy.

I'll always love you, Big Brother...

...more than Big Brother Kengo or Miyuki...

...forever...

...and ever...

Shinya...

Shinya... Shinya...

Shinya...

D-Boy, why are you doing this?

You know it's only going to hurt you.

At least I can still cry.

What?

I still remember Shinya and Miyuki...

I can still grieve...

And as long as I don't lose these memories and these tears...

...I can hate the Radam!

I can fight the Radam!

D-Boy...

You came here to your house...

...so you'd never forget your rage and hatred towards the Radam.

D-Boy...

Someday, you too will be saved...

I know you will!

Kengo, I'll stop at nothing to protect you...

...even if I have to drive your brother to his death!

Right now, I feel as though I can be totally honest.

I can say it now...

The two brothers I loved so much... I'll kill them with my own hands.

I never would've chosen such a destiny for myself.

D-Boy...

I can't do anything.

You're suffering, but I can't do anything.

All I can do is stand by and watch you.

Today, I couldn't understand how it felt for you to come here.

Aki...

It's all right, Aki.

Just your being here with me is enough.

I don't want to forget about you, Aki.

Your name, my memories of you...

I don't want to forget anything about you.

I won't let you forget me...

Big Brother Takaya, just wait...

...until I evolve myself!

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.

Tekkaman Sword swoops toward the Blue Earth, on its way to the moon.

Balzak risks his life to take her on, for the sake of mankind's future.
