Toho presents

Excuse me, what can I do for you?

This is a robbery! Don't move.

We shouldn't have let Ryotsu play the bank robber.

I strongly opposed it but we had no choice.

The computer picked him for the job.

He's very spirited. That's the problem.

Terai is with him, he'll calm him down.

It's only a drill, if he sticks to the manual...

Move and I'll blast you!

You're overdoing it.

It's got to look real.

No need to worry, they're loaded with blanks.

Where's the alarm?

Should have gone off by now. Ready to go'?

Press that button and I'll blow you away!

You, too!

They have to sound the alarm.

I don't care, it's got to be real!

Still no sign of the holdup alarm.

Look at this!

What is it'?

Now they can't monitor us.

Don't overdo it!

Even a complete moron would think of that.

The man is crazy.

Open the safe.

Isn't this just a drill?

You have to be prepared for anything.

Now open it up.

Hand over the money.

Now he'll fall for the booby trap.

What's that'?

If they open it, it sprays an indelible red dye.

Oh no!

Well done!

You won't get far covered in paint!

Now give me the real money.

It's gotta look real!

No way!

What's the point if it doesn't mimic reality?

That idiot! Send the squad in now!

But the alarm hasn't gone off yet.

He must be stopped. He's making us look like fools.

What's this?

Who ordered them here'?

They're good cops.

He's getting away!

Stop right there!

Inspector!

Why didn't you stop him'?

I'm sorry, sir.

Inspector, a nearby bank has just been robbed.

What's that'?

Stay where you are.

One false move and she's dead.

Damn them.

Are you holding a drill, too?

It's no drill! This is a real robbery.

What'?

Drop your gun or we'll kill the hostage.

Let's go.

Like hell you will.

You fools, they're only blanks.

Get them!

I got 'em for you, Inspector.

Where did you get that weapon?

From that gang we arrested last week.

Reality is important, sir.

It is not needed!

So you won't want these either?

I'll be off.

No you won't. Give me that money.

Of course, I forgot. I didn't intend to take it.

Empty your pockets, too.

What's that doing there'?

This too and this.

The bomb seems to be ticking, sir.

We've got five minutes.

What's going on here'? Bank robbers don't need bombs.

If we remove the primer wire...

What's it got so many wires for?

Inspector, save me!

You started it, finish it!

If it goes off, we're in trouble.

Get it somewhere safe.

But I'm all tied up!

Get moving!

This wire goes to here...

You idiot!

Everybody off the bus! Now!

I've got a live bomb here.

You too, get off!

No! This is my bus.

20 years I've driven this bus. I'll never give it up.

You'll give it up this time!

You think this is a racetrack?

Sorry, I was in a hurry.

If "sorry" worked, we wouldn't need cops.

So be very careful. Let's not have an accident.

We're out of time.

Watch out!

Sorry folks, we have a slight problem...

I guess we've stopped.

We were almost there!

Am I glad to see you!

In one minute this will explode.

Wait!

Catch you later!

Come back!

I'm tangled in it!

I've disarmed it!

I'm a dead man.

It's stopped.

A woman?

KOCHIKAME - The Movie -

Fool, that bus you commandeered is a total write off!

I had no other choice, did I?

You're always causing trouble.

It's time to go on patrol.

See ya later!

I haven't finished with you!

I'd better stay out until he cools off.

What beautiful weather. Great for cycling.

Hello Ryotsu!

Hello, Chomachi, Naoko.

In trouble again, I hear.

A magnet for trouble.

Shut up! Mind your own business.

You're a real caveman!

- Kameari Shopping Street -

In the news again, are you?

He'll lose his bonus.

You still owe on my bill.

Hope he doesn't get fired.

I should go further out.

- Sensoji Temple -

I've cycled all the way to Ueno.

I used to play around here when I was a kid.

Chasing dragonflies...

I used to fish in that pond.

And my favorite old shrine...

What's that'?

Shinatora Hotel

All my childhood memories destroyed!

Who built this monstrosity?

Take this!

That's impossible!

For one mad moment, I thought Ryotsu had done it.

But it was obviously an expert.

A demolition's expert?

The charges were set to make the building collapse inwards.

Very artistic technique.

It took barely one kilo of plastic to bring the hotel down.

If Ryotsu isn't involved, then it's not our case, right'?

But someone specifically sent a warning to us on the Internet.

Is that so'?

You have a computer now'?

An essential tool for modern day crime fighters.

I'm very impressed.

Can someone come and turn this on?

“Hotel Shinatora goes at noon today. Benten Mask.”

Who's Benten Mask?

We don't know but he's obviously a master criminal.

HQ says to expect a series of similar crimes.

But we're no match against a professional explosives expert.

Good man. You may go.

Coincidentally, HQ has invited an expert over.

One of the FBI's top bomb disposal people.

Come in.

I'm Lisa Hoshino, from the FBI.

Welcome, Agent Hoshino.

I'm honored to work with you.

No, we're the one's who are honored.

My pleasure.

Our hatred of crime is a mutual link.

I'll do my best to help maintain public safety here, too.

Very well said.

I wish that idiot was like her.

The FBI? So what?

Makes no difference.

She graduated from Yale University.

She's an authority on bomb disposals.

I don't care if she's elite, or petite.

It's nothing to do with me.

That's great!

Now check this out.

You have a wealth of useless talent.

It's not useless, it helps me communicate with the citizens.

Anyway, you will attend her lecture on explosives.

I've had enough of bombs.

That's an order!

Dismantling Explosives

...they break down into high and low explosives,

depending on the quantity and quality of the actual materials used.

We can either remove the fuse from the circuit,

or cut the wire leading to the triggering mechanism.

If it cannot be moved, we freeze it in liquid nitrogen.

This neutralizes most devices.

Let's go onto some practicalities.

- What's that? - It's a robot.

Dandy was jointly developed by the Mars Probe team and the FBI.

Dandy, are you ready'?

Please input commands.

A talking robot! You believe that'?

It's artificial intelligence.

A hundred times smarter than someone we know.

Roger, Wilco. Target selected.

The idiot's chair is dismantled.

What's that'?

That smarts!

He's coated with hyper titanium, harder than steel.

Hyper titanium?

He's far superior to any other disposal device.

No, he's just hard!

Dandy is, without doubt, the world's most advanced robot.

We'll see how smart he is!

What's he up to now'?

More of the same.

Look!

This is Densuke the 28th, a super robot I built.

How embarrassing.

I'll win the 3 million yen robot sumo contest with him.

I spent my vacation building Densuke.

If you reckon yours is so great, prove it. Let them fight it out.

Certainly, since you insist.

Hi folks, guess who?

It's Naoko and...

...Komachi!

The battle of the robots is about to begin!

Let's explain the rules.

These two robots will try to defuse a time bomb.

The winner is the first one to complete the task.

The loser gets an iron ball dropped on him.

Hell to lose. Heaven to win!

Are you both ready?

- In that case... - Ready, go!

Message received.

Go Densuke!

Why aren't you guiding him?

Dandy is fitted with AI circuits.

Once I enter an objective, he works it out.

I'd better try something.

That'll learn ya!

Unfair. That's interference.

How embarrassing.

That robot's just like Ryotsu.

You cheated!

He's programmed to defend himself against attack.

Time for my secret weapon.

Dandy, back to work.

Roger.

The red one.

Game over!

Poor Densuke the 28th!

He can't win the sumo now.

It appears that we have a winner.

Repeating the same mistake. That's very ape—like behavior.

What did you say?

Warning!

Shut up! What warning?

You'd better heed his advice.

He's worse than a skunk.

I told you to be careful.

Emergency, emergency! All personnel report to HQ.

What have we got'?

Another message from Benten.

Shinatora Moonlight building will explode at midnight.

Another Shinatora target?

A grudge against the Shinatora Company?

Their CEO? Who would that be'?

His name is Torazo Shinada, 56.

President of Shinatora Company.

Hotels, nightclubs, and resort development.

All fingers, many pies.

He has a total of 36 arrests for fraud, embezzlement,

and professional negligence.

But each charge was dropped.

Why is that'?

His personal attorney, Ma-chin,

does whatever it takes to keep him out of trouble.

He's notorious for his deeds.

My job is to defuse bombs, even for vicious criminals.

Why did you make me her partner?

Because no one minds if you end up dead.

How dare you say that!

Hey! I'm no arcade game prize!

- Shinatora Towers -

Sir, a call from Ohara of the police dept.

I'll take it.

Speaking. What?

Benten has threatened to blow up the Moonlight Building.

Our experts are on thew way over now.

Help me!

We're supposed to be working as a team.

What did you say?

A blackout? I can't see anything.

Benten has obviously cut the electricity to hinder us.

What's that'?

Special goggles to see in the dark.

You should've told me.

Now I can see!

They also detect heat and distance by laser.

These are great.

See that? Part of that pillar is a different color.

It shows evidence of having a charge there.

So we've found it?

There are others.

Here, too.

And one there.

Why so many?

He's using sophisticated demolition techniques.

What'?

By exploding multiple charges at slightly different times,

the weight of the building brings it down.

And there's no collateral damage.

It's our task to find the central triggering device.

Obviously, yes.

Let's split up and search.

Aren't we supposed to be a team?

Sorry about this, sir.

Why target only our buildings?

Only Benten knows the answer to that.

Benten? Who is he?

We're still investigating.

Useless! You're lust a waste of our taxes.

That's ripe! They're the biggest tax dodgers.

There's a rumor that they've stashed a mountain of cash.

She treats me like a nuisance.

I've found it. Get yourself over here.

Where?

Who put the lights on?

Up there.

Well hidden.

Air ducts can take wiring all over the building.

Don't you push me!

Oh no! Not again.

What is it, Dandy?

His drive shaft is damaged.

What? Ain't he made of hyper titanium?

He can't complete his task.

Okay, let me try to lift him up.

No way, he's far too heavy.

Whaddya reckon'?

I can't believe it! Dandy weighs 350kg.

Three hundred and fifty kilos'?

Better hurry up, please...

I hope they don't stumble on it.

Don't worry. It's safely hidden away.

Still not finished?

What happened?

A short circuit has advanced the clock.

Nu!

We've got 30 seconds. No time to rest.

You're an FBI agent! Do something!

You damaged Dandy, not me.

I'm holding the elephant!

20 seconds. We'd better get out of here.

20 seconds'? Go!

Will they be alright?

Of course they will. She's an FBI agent.

Everybody get back!

It's gonna blow!

The symbol of my honor and glory is gone.

What's that'?

Ma—chin!

Stop that! You stupid robot.

It's raining money!

Fool! That's evidence of tax evasion!

Sir, I'll have to take you downtown.

Boss!

What? Are you saying it's my fault?

If you hadn't got violent with Dandy, he'd have been fine.

But he started it!

You can't shift the blame to a robot.

But because he did we now have evidence of tax evasion.

That's right, without him we'd never have found the money.

But Shinatora is out on bail.

That's a separate matter.

Where did he get to?

It's all your fault. You hunk of junk.

“Stupid jerk"

- Warning! - Shut UP!

Lovely, isn't it'?

Looking over the town from up here.

I really love this area.

I'm pleased I can offer some service to them.

What made you join the force?

Why do you ask'?

It's such a dangerous job. Your family must worry.

I have no family.

I'm sorry.

That's alright.

That's Dandy's alarm.

We heard an alarm.

Inspector!

What in hell are you doing down here'?

Someone scribbled graffiti on Dandy.

I was wiping it off for him.

More likely you did it!

You must be kidding. We're friends, aren't we Dandy'?

Ryotsu did it...

Inspector, perhaps this camera caught something.

Whoever did it will be on tape.

But security cameras, in a police station?

That shows how important Dandy is.

It's all your fault. You hunk of junk.

That's your voice.

It can't possibly be.

How did he get a police uniform?

I'll show you!

How cunning to disguise himself as a policeman.

Security alert!

Shut up, jerk! Stop ridiculing the Japanese police.

Amazing. He's disguised himself as me!

He's obviously an intelligent man.

It's obviously you!

But that's impossible.

Watch, he'll probably rip off his mask like this.

Enough! You're suspended for two weeks!

You're not welcome!

You mean I'll get paid for not working?

Idiot! You're restricted to barracks.

No work, no pay!

Oh, it's only you.

What did I do to deserve this?

You're lucky, I was about to kill you.

What are you doing here?

I was ordered to watch Ryotsu and keep him from going out.

So watch him! Not visitors to the dormitory.

Yeah, right.

Excuse me.

I'm here to cheer you up.

Ryotsu?

Are you asleep?

A dummy?

What brings you here?

I thought you'd be bored so I brought you some snacks.

They're my favorites. That's good of you.

What's going on? You'll be in big trouble if...

Never mind them. They're all quite stupid.

I found an interesting article in this magazine.

The old shogun's money is buried around here.

This is a boy's magazine from 1968!

That means nobody ever found the treasure.

Just one gold piece is worth 5 million yen.

The total will be worth billions.

My dad's company is digging a subway line near here.

Don't tell me they're after my treasure!

I'd better hurry it up.

You misunderstand!

I'd better find it before they do.

That's a great indication. Good, it's near here.

We did it!

Anything wrong, boss'?

What is this tunnel'?

Maybe one of the other gangs dug it out.

There's been a change in plans.

Follow that tunnel.

Certainly, sir.

Go!

Inspector.

Hello, Nakagawa. Is Ryotsu still in barracks?

Yes, he was in his room.

He'll never get out while those two are watching.

That's a relief. I have no problems if he isn't around.

Here's your tea, sir.

Thank you.

He's searching for the Tokugawa Shogun's treasure.

The shogun's treasure?

Is it an earthquake'?

What? So it's this way now.

It changes direction here. These guys are fast!

Follow that tunnel!

What's going on'?

Maybe it's a mole?

There are no moles here.

Only Ryotsu could do this.

I'm getting worried.

I never expected waste disposal could earn so much money.

Another message from Benten.

At noon today, I'll blow up the Shinatora Ocean Bldg,.

Signed Benten.

Another attack on Shinatora.

Damn him! Hurry, we have very little time.

I found you!

Now it's only Asuka to find.

- Police. - Let's go look.

So this is the Shinatora Ocean...

It used to be a children's playground.

When did it go up?

Yet another attack on our property?

What is this building used for?

That's confidential.

You're not hiding anything'?

Watch your mouth. It's your job to arrest this Benten.

I have no answer.

Hurry up, Dandy.

Roger, roger.

I must begin immediately.

You'd better not make another stupid mistake!

Another mistake?

If you don't accept full responsibility this time,

we'll not allow you to enter.

Another earthquake?

I'm almost there.

More moles'?

There are no moles!

I have an uneasy premonition.

We can't find Asuka!

We were playing hide-and-seek.

No one was supposed to go in there.

We must find her now!

How dare you sneak in here!

This used to be our playground!

Yeah, give it back!

Shut up! You'll get a smack!

Stop that.

Seven minutes to go.

Damn that Benten, getting innocent kids involved.

He would never!

I mean... I'll help her out.

We haven't given you permission!

Asuka! Where are you?

Come out. Hide—and—seek is over.

Say something. Asuka!

I never imagined this would happen.

I did it!

What in hell is this'?

I wanted some treasure, not these stupid barrels!

I'm caught...

Wait!

Please help me find a missing girl.

The building will explode in 5 minutes.

Not again!

What's all this'?

A waste disposal processor.

What's that mean?

We can talk later.

There's the trigger!

3 minutes to go.

Where are you Asuka?

Just calm down.

How can I?

You don't know how lonely and scared she must be.

Help!

Over here.

Where are you'?

In there?

How did she get in'?

She probably squeezed in, but now she can't get out.

We're here to help you.

One minute to go. We must stop the timer.

How can you do that without Dandy?

I know a way.

You did it.

That's great. You did it with one finger.

Asuka! Good, you're okay.

You're safe now.

How did you get in there?

I removed a few of the pipes.

It's collapsing.

Let's go!

It's collapsing.

This way!

Not again.

Boss, no'.!

You stupid fools.

Get in there and find them!

Hurry!

There's no sign.

Look. There's a tunnel.

What's this tunnel?

It's the mole's!

You and your moles!

Ryotsu's dug it.

What are you looking at?

That was close.

We're safe. Everything's okay.

You were good. Were you scared'?

I was scared stiff.

Dinner is ready.

Come home, dear. Your dinner's ready.

I'll be right there.

Where is everyone?

Help me! Someone help me!

Help!

Take it.

What'?

Nothing. Why was there a tunnel there?

My treasure hunt.

I almost forgot! I must go.

What's wrong?

Take care of her.

Get out!

We don't want Shinatora!

Benten's explosion of the Shinatora Building

has revealed it to be an illegal waste disposal plant.

Citizens are banding together to remove Shinotora.

Those people will do anything for money.

They found high levels of dioxin there.

Once again, Benten reveals Shinatora’s evil crimes.

Yes, and we have Lisa to thank for saving that child.

Notice how she's yet to prevent an explosion?

Yes, that's right.

There's something fishy.

You again'?

We meet again. What are you doing?

Are you still after that treasure?

I'm taking a break. I'm starving.

Fuji TV must be celebrating something.

Want a pancake?

Thanks.

When I was a kid, I'd sit here and watch them raise the bridge.

Is it a drawbridge?

Yes, they'd raise it and the big boats would sail under it.

They say the bridge is the soul of the river.

You were raised in the US, you wouldn't understand.

But I do. I was born and raised near here.

My father made fireworks.

Our life wasn't easy but they were happy days.

That's amazing. I didn't know that.

We'd all play, the boys with toy guns and spinning tops.

All covered in mud.

That sounds like me!

I'd go to the festival and see Dad's fireworks.

Those were my happiest days.

I probably watched your dad's fireworks.

How's he doing?

He was swindled, he got into debt and had to work all hours.

The day before the fireworks demonstration...

Daddy... Mommy!

I was brought up by a relative in the States.

Life there was far from happy.

I never imagined that you'd had to suffer.

This is my very favorite town.

All my best memories are here.

And your first love? Was he as handsome as me?

Far better than you.

Who would that be'?

I never knew his name. But to me he was like a prince.

Don't cry. The God of Happiness hates crybabies.

If you keep crying, the god will hide your treasure.

Okay, I won't cry.

What was your special memory? C'mon, tell me.

No, you'd only make it cheap.

You make me sound like a germ, or a virus.

I'll do anything to save this little town.

From Benten?

Benten won't ever be back.

My childhood memories of here are my treasures.

Memories are treasures, eh?

We found it!

We did it!

Party tonight! All the meat you can eat!

Take me to a fancy night club.

I'll buy you a couple!

That's the treasure I was searching for.

Wait!

Are you hurt?

I fell into a hole I dug myself.

What was all that hard work for'?

-Shogun's Treasure Found-

Can I come in'?

What brings you here?

I want to talk to you.

Talk about what?

I checked up on Lisa.

Her parents died 20 years ago in a fireworks explosion.

I know. They were deeply in debt.

Yes, in debt to one of Shinatora’s loan sharks.

Is that right'?

Shinatora is an object of vengeance to Lisa.

Could be.

What do you think?

What do you mean?

Sure you don't think...?

Benten won't ever be back.

Lisa is Benten.

It's you, Ryotsu.

I only wanted to save my treasure. That's all.

Even 20 years on, Shinatora still makes people suffer.

They'll do anything to make a profit.

Steal a children's playground, spread dioxin.

When I learned that I just couldn't suppress my anger.

Think about your father's fireworks.

He worked very hard to make the townsfolk happy.

Fireworks bring happiness, bombs bring only suffering.

You want to save the town but your bombs scare people.

Your father would be disappointed.

I know I was wrong.

I might have killed that little girl.

Go on, arrest me.

No need to.

Benten's gone forever, so you said.

If so, then so be it.

Constable Ryotsu...

Tax evasion, toxic waste disposal and other crimes have emerged.

Citizen protests at these despicable crimes have escalated.

Do you have an opinion about Shinatora?

His skyscraper's shadow has killed off all my bonsai.

They said it was to be an old folk's home.

Just one of many complaints about Shinatora.

What's your phone number, honey?

Despite fierce objections from local residents,

Shinatora appears to be starting a new project.

Now it'll be difficult to pull off our new theme park.

That Benten is becoming a popular hero.

They're selling Benten crackers, Benten cakes,

and they're planning all manner of Benten goods.

We should jump on his popularity.

Be serious, man!

But then again...

...you're right. We could make it work for us.

Reporting back from two weeks' suspension.

Forget that, another message from Benten just came in.

Another one'?

Asia's biggest theme park, the proposed Shinatora World,

will start with a real bang! Signed Benten.

It reads like an advertisement.

This isn't from Benten, it's obvious.

It isn't?

There's a slight difference in the logo this time.

Let's report to HQ.

Thank you for coming.

I will not allow anyone to destroy our dream of Shinatora World.

The public eagerly awaits our fantastic new theme park.

We will not yield to that evil fiend, Benten.

Shinatora World, will never give in!

We fight the evil Benten, and we will win!

Make sure you get the logo in the background.

He's using Benten to promote his new theme park.

The real Benten would never be so commercial.

Are you taking sides with Benten'?

We don't mean that.

That cheapskate wouldn't blow it up as a publicity stunt.

They say it's heavily insured.

They make a fortune either way.

I won't let him get away with that!

That Ryotsu, he's hopeless. Where's Lisa?

I don't know.

We can't let him go alone. We'll all go down there.

—Chief Inspector's Office-

Three hours to go. Did you organize the bomb?

I adapted an ex-Soviet missile and set the warhead.

How big is it?

2,000 pounds, I think it was.

2000 pounds?!

It has to be big to collect the insurance.

Are you alright, sir'?

Do you realize that's a ton of explosives'?

A ton'? Is it that much?

It'll flatten Tokyo! We'll all die!

What can we do'?

No time. We have to escape.

Stop right there!

How dare you act in Benten's name?

I'll drive. On second thought, you drive!

Did you hear me'?

I've got no time for you.

You won't get away!

Fool! It'll destroy the entire city!

A ton of high explosives.

They're the culprits! They planted the bomb, not Benten.

Get Shinatora!

Hurry, get away!

The rocket!

Run!

It collapsed too easily.

Fell like fiddlesticks.

They cut corners. It was unsafe.

The message was not from Benten. Benten has stopped.

What do you mean?

To tell you the truth...

Chief, a big problem down at Shinatora World Park.

A 2000lb bomb is set to explode in 3 hours.

What's that'?

Emergency. A bomb will explode in 3 hours.

All residents are ordered to evacuate.

Leave the area. A bomb will explode in 3 hours.

Follow police instructions and leave now.

We're in big trouble, boss.

Because of your bomb, you idiot!

I am so sorry.

Have my jet ready.

Yes, sir.

All citizens have been ordered to evacuate the area.

It's like a ghost town, as if humans were extinct.

The bomb is a remodeled Soviet-era device.

It contains 2,000 pounds of high explosives.

Based on the available data, we calculate this entire

area will be totally obliterated.

In this far zone, we expect to lose all services and infrastructure.

How can we stop it going off?

First stop the timer device, then transport it to a safe zone.

We have very little time to move it to a safe area.

This device is far powerful than Benten's.

Put your lives on the line.

Lisa and Dandy are gone! They're headed to the site.

Dandy, let's go.

Roger, roger.

Wait there.

I'm coming, too. No one blows up my town!

How did you get here'?

I'm getting good at hanging from a chopper.

Don't ever forget, Lisa, we're a team.

Lisa, Dandy and I are proceeding to disarm the bomb.

What'?

Do you realize how dangerous it is?

We sure are. Leave everything to us.

Lisa, Dandy, let's go.

We have no choice but to rely on Lisa.

Some kid must have dropped it.

I hope one day children can play here again.

They surely will.

Police bomb disposal experts have been sent in.

The explosive device is extremely powerful.

Can they stop it in time'?

There it is.

It's blocked!

We've hit a snag here, sir.

What's that?!

Sorry Dandy, I'll wash that off once this is over.

You promise'?

It certainly is.

They're like brothers.

It's taking too long. They'll never make it back in time.

It's too dangerous!

Stop immediately. Return to base.

Not until I finish.

Me, too.

After all, we are a team.

Lisa, don't you get it'? You'll both die!

You're out of time.

Return immediately!

No time for a round trip.

If they can't disable the timer...

We made it.

Dandy can get at it through that porthole.

Dandy! Pull yourself together!

P...p...promise me.

He saved my life.

I promised to wash that graffiti off.

No time for tears, Lisa.

I've got it. 5 minutes to go.

It's not very sophisticated, just cut the circuit.

I can't reach it.

Just that one wire will do it.

My reach is too short.

If only Dandy were here.

3 minutes to go.

Ryotsu, it's all up to you now.

Careful, if you cut wrong wire, it will blow.

I'm almost there.

One minute to go.

No, we're too late.

Don't give up now.

I'll never give up. I'll get it!

Something pricked me.

The spinning top!

Maybe this can do it!

A spinning top'?

No time for childish games!

30 seconds to go!

The roof is falling!

Damn it.

Hurry!

We did it!

What's happening?

Ryotsu, come in! Are you there?

Inspector!

You're alive?

The rocket just shifted position.

We cut the circuit.

Mission accomplished.

Fantastic!

You saved the city.

Ryotsu! I am so moved!

We did it, Lisa.

Ryotsu!

Something's wrong.

What's going on'?

Ryotsu, no!

I think it's a real rocket!

A rocket is loose in the subway system'?

The express train on platform 1...

What was that?

An urgent news bulletin.

A rocket is on the loose in the city subway system.

The rocket is carrying high explosives

and a local policeman, Constable Ryotsu.

-Subway Control Center-

Thank god you're here.

Where is it?

That's it! That moving light.

It's far too fast!

It changed at Otemachi.

Is it transferring to another line?

You idiot. A rocket can't change trains!

Out of the way!

-Change Trains Here-

He'll hit that train!

What a disaster!

There's no escape!

What happened?

There's no line there.

The tunnel Ryotsu dug out!

He dug a tunnel?

He's on the Hibiya Line.

He's heading straight for Katsushika.

What can we do'?

Inspector Ohara.

Chief Inspector.

HQ orders us to blow up the rocket when it reaches there.

What'?

Everyone’s been evacuated. The area is clear.

If it explodes anywhere else, it'll be mayhem.

We're lucky it's headed there.

We have to do it.

What about Ryotsu'?

Don't you care what happens to Ryotsu'?

It's an order from HQ, we have no choice.

Are Ryotsu and our town expendable?

He risked his life to save us all. How can you'?

All the charges have been set and primed.

Ryotsu. Don't head that way!

Don't say that!

They've set charges to blow you up.

No choice, I'm already heading that way!

I know! I've got an idea.

It's gone.

Where!

It's going UP!

It surfaced at Ueno Station.

What have you done?

Leave everything to that idiot, sir.

But...

I'll take full responsibility.

That was close. It started up again!

The runaway rocket is heading for the Kanda area.

The fate of the city lies in the hands of one man, Constable Ryotsu.

The rocket is carrying a massive bomb.

Do not approach the rocket.

New York

That's Ryotsu!

Hong Kong

Japanese madman hijacks kamikaze rocket.

The UN and the US are preparing for air strikes.

Look!

My darling Ryotsu.

Rio de Janeiro

Japanese people are enjoying their annual rocket festival.

The rocket is headed south on Hibiya St.

Sparks!

Friction could set it off.

You must stop it exploding, Any plans?

I don't know.

You said you'd do something.

This is hardly the time...

I know! Raise the Kachidoki Bridge.

Raise the bridge? Then what?

Anyway, let's do as he says.

Roger, roger. We'll do it.

I used to work on the bridge but that was 30 years ago.

You're our only hope.

Block all traffic to the bridge.

Start evacuating now.

Hang in there, Ryotsu.

The rocket is heading for Hibiya.

Go left.

It's now on Harumi St.

Heading straight for the bridge!

- You're our hero! - Go Ryotsu!

Despite the danger, people are cheering him on.

Will their cheers reach him?

Honda!

What's wrong?

It's been so long he can't remember the sequence.

I never forget a pretty girl's phone number.

He's headed this way.

We have no time.

There it is! What do we do now?

I remember now.

First these two...

It's moving.

Can you pull that breaker down?

We're out of time.

Don't rush me.

Raise the drawbridge!

Look at that!

It's working.

For the first time in 30 years the drawbridge is opening.

The entire city waits with bated breath.

Look at that.

How's Ryotsu?

Here we go!

It's airborne.

He's taking it out of range.

Once I reconnect these wires, I'll jump off.

That's ripped the wires out!

-Shinatora Company-

There's a fitting target.

They managed to stop the timer.

It's not our concern any more.

Help me!

Will you let go!

I can't. I'll fall if I do.

That stupid idiot, he killed himself.

“City Jail”

Good! You're right where you belong.

Lisa is being deported.

Well, she did break the law.

But thanks to her we could arrest Shinatora.

She should get a pardon.

It should be here soon.

Wow! Look at that!

It's my Dad's.

I'm sorry you have to leave.

There's no choice. An FBI agent committed a crime.

But you're the one who saved us all, Lisa.

It wasn't me. You did.

I'll get all embarrassed.

Thank you for everything.

You take care.

Lisa, don't cry.

The God of Happiness doesn't like crybabies.

The God of Happiness doesn't like crybabies.

We'll surely miss her.

We'll see her again.

Yes, that's for sure.

I felt like I'd met her somewhere before.

Dandy! You're all fixed!

Lisa did it last night. His memory functions were all intact.

He can work for the FBI again.

That's great Dandy!

Your promise.

I'll give you a good wash, I will!

Ryotsu! Are you okay?

You're supposed to be in Hong Kong with your father!

How could I risk losing my future husband?

What husband'?

But you're a man! We can never get married.

Nobody's perfect.

No, it's a big 'un!

Moles!

You and your moles!

I'm afraid...

...that's Ryotsu's tunnel.

You idiot! Ryotsu!
