Robot Ball

The whole world is watching!

Today, right now...

...is the Robot Ball World Series opening game!

Goal!

Good job World Shoot Harley!

A combination play!

Harley! Harley! Harley! Harley!

Fighting between robots, is that so enjoyable, humans?

Watching robots get hurt, is that so enjoyable?

Rules?

What are rules?

They are something needed so humans and robots can live together peacefully.

To begin rules are...

Today, the Robot Ball World Series begins.

Seems like fun! Let me play too!

Hey, Atom!

ATOM!

Hey! What's happening?!

Hey You! Return the ball at once!

Let me play too.

I can't.

The rules won't allow it.

Rules?

Tobio.

Atom!

Ochanomizu.

Doing what you please with my Tobio!

We agree that Atom is a super robot that stopped the berserk core...

...but what about his interference during Robot Ball?

Could it be a program break down?

Listen, ladies and gentlemen.

Atom isn't a robot programmed to just move.

He is a robot that has the ability to think for himself!

He has the same mind as humans, it's amazing!

What's so good about that?

First, a mind, do you know what that means?

If he has a mind, then why doesn't Atom respond?

Right, right! Atom, please respond!

M-me?

Yuka, please take Atom back.

Okay, let's go Atom.

We want to ask that robot!

Don't take him!

Listen!

Okay then. Atom has the same mind as humans.

He has emotions!

Atom's birth will create the ties of friendship between humans and robots!

Friendship?

Robots won't work for humans?

What about the problems for the robots?

Also, if they have the same mind, can't they also feel anger and hatred?

Man, how can I explain it so that they'd understand?

No.

Their questions have some merit to them.

Inspector Tawashi!

That Atom Robot, how much power does he have?

Even you don't know!

Atom is not a dangerous robot!

Is that so?

What?

Atom was not originally created by you!

Isn't that right?

Wh-what?

I investigated it.

Atom, no, Tobio was created by a previous scientist!

Who is also the suspect in the lab explosion!

It was Professor Tenma!

Robots will evolve and rule the humans!

After Tobio was created, Tenma sealed the robot and burned all the research data.

"Robots will evolve and rule the humans!"...

...those were his remaining words right?

A robot created by such a person cannot be safe!

Atom has nothing to do with Tenma!

That boy isn't anyone's copy! He's a child with a mind!

A mind is dangerous isn't it?

No way!

If robots had minds, they'd be able to understand people. It would be wonderful!

The most important thing is that robots are here to protect humans.

That's why there are rules.

Rules?

Listen Atom, we humans are much weaker than robots.

And if we break, we can't be easily repaired, so...

I see.

Just like humans, to process the data he must sleep.

Today was a busy day, huh?

Tobio.

I am your creator.

But I also do not...

...know how much power you have.

I wasn't able to confirm it.

Tobio, awaken!

Are you awake Atom?

From today on this will be your room.

Professor!

Do you like it?

Professor, you'll be late, hurry!

Okay! Okay!

Atom, today with Robita...

...see how robots live in this city.

Watch carefully.

You're late!

Okay!

Hurry!

Another public announcement...

Tonight will be part two of the Robot Ball World Series!

The players are getting energy, right now!

With no surprise, like yesterday, it's the Omega Knights.

Who will win today?

You want to win.

No matter what methods, you want to beat your enemies.

Right?

To win...

Pass!

Are those robots?

No, those are human kids.

Okay, Omega Knights counter attack!

Harley breaks through the enemies defense!

Is that the children's job?

No, it's playing. Playing is... oh! Atom!

Harley Shoot!

I got the ball! Let me play!

Huh, that robot!

Ah.

You were the one that interfered with yesterday's match.

Hey, you put the ball in here right?

One point!

Flying in the air isn't allowed.

It's cheating. That's not a point!

Cheating?

I'm sure he doesn't know the rules.

Right?

Rules?

Right, rules.

If everyone did there own thing...

...it wouldn't be a game. That's why rules are needed.

I didn't obey the rules?

I'll teach you.

Really?

I'm Shinichi, and you?

I'm Atom!

Okay, let's go Atom!

Okay!

Ah, to play with human kids. I'm so jealous.

Hey! Hey, hold on a minute!

Alright Atom.

Jump and get the ball.

But no flying in the air.

Got it.

Play ball!

It's okay to block or attack the player with the ball.

That's why you have to pass.

Okay!

Atom, pass!

What should I do?

Atom!

I see. Shinichi pass!

Shoot!

Goal!

Shinichi got a goal!

Are you okay Atom?

One point right?

That was just a point right?!

Thanks to your pass!

One point! One point! One point!

Isn't this fun?

Yeah, it's so fun!

Winning with "fair play" feels great.

Omega Knights always use "fair play".

That's why I'm a big Harley fan.

"Fair Play"?

Huh, where's the ball?

Yeah, it was here a moment ago.

Ah, there!

Hey, that's my ball! Return it!

What's that?

A robot dog.

Weird... It's a robot, but it's not listening to me, a human.

Ah, stop!

I'll go to!

Hey, let me be!

Welcome! Enjoy!

Welcome! It's tasty!

Welcome!

Wait!

Welcome!

Welcome!

Wait!

What a weird robot.

Well, it's like it's leading us somewhere.

Where?

I don't know, but let's go see.

Bye bye! Take care everyone!

I'm tired.

Atom, where is he?

There it is!

This is...

Okay, Robot Ball World Series part two, play ball!

What? Atom disappeared again?!

I'm so sorry Professor Ochanomizu!

I should...

Atom!

This is...

Alright! The attack begins!

But the Omega Knights seem strange.

That's true. Today Harley seems kind of strange.

What?! Harley made a great offence! He attacked a player without a ball!

Oh no! The judge robot needs repairs!

What's wrong with Harley?!

Where is Atom?

There he is!

I see, Robot Ball, huh?

Emergency exit gate open!

What the...

Tobio!

The world's best robot sports players...

...can you beat them?

What's going on?! Hey, open up!

What the heck is going on?!

Foolish humans.

Watch this match till the end!

Tobio...

Accept the challenge of these robots!

I-I'm Atom. I don't know any Tobio.

Atom!

Have a match with us!

Or else...

Fight Tobio!

And win!

Otherwise, who knows what'll happen to the humans!

The most important thing is that robots are here to protect humans.

I will fight!

With "Fair Play"!

The boy robot Atom...

...has accepted Harley's challenge!

Atom...

He really accepted it?

Will he be okay with that tiny body?

The match's beginning.

Let's go!

Atom, get the ball!

Atom, pass!

That's it!

What's going on?!

Try the gate again!

Haven't we contacted the police yet?

Why are the robots out of control?

Ah, Professor. I don't know. I've given up.

There must be a reason!

I'm going after Harley!

That's great Atom!

Atom has no one to pass to!

Atom is surrounded!

What'll you do Atom?

Atom is running on the wall!

There's no time!

Four seconds left! Three seconds!

Two seconds! One!

Goal!

You did it Atom!

Game set!

Atom wins!

That's power Tobio.

By beating the world's best you greatly evolve.

But it's not over yet.

Atom, you can do it!

Atom!

Don't lose Atom!

You can do it!

Atom!

Atom!

Atom!

Atom!

Atom!

I see!

Atom! The sunglasses!

Aim for Harley's sunglasses!

Sunglasses?

Okay!

What?! That tiny robot has stopped raging Harley!

Atom!

Shinichi!

The audience is not permitted to enter the field.

This is the rule.

Harley! You're back to "Fair Play" Harley!

Atom, thanks!

Atom! Atom! Atom!

Still using the hearts of people.

Tobio...

...my ultimate robot.

Do not fear, for I will make you evolve.

Your hidden power... I will see how much you have!

Professor Tenma...

He's no longer your Tobio.

He's Atom.

Naze... Naze... Kokoro ga... Why... Why... is my heart...

Itamu to namida ni naru? Is filled with pain and tears?

Naze... Naze... Namida ga... Why... Why... Tears...

Ochiru to Hitori ni naru. They fall and I'm alone.

Chiisa na hiza kakae... I hold my tiny knees...

Tooku wo mata miageru. And look up and far away.

Hiroi... Hiroi... Vast... Vast...

Kono sora yori motto hiroi hazu da! It has to be more wide than these skies!

Takai... Takai... High... High...

Ano kumo yori motto takai hazu da! It has to be higher than those clouds!

Kimi no kokoro mo... Your heart is...

The robots working in space have contracted a virus!

They sent out a distress signal. There are two holes.

Professor, what's this?!

Next time! Atom goes to space!

With your heart... Catch the future!
