People call upon these so-called nine warriors.
However, for the sake of love,
For the sake of the weak who have forgotten how to fight,
Crossing over the tears of bloody waters,
In the midst of dreaming, running through the wilderness, oh yeah !
Cyborg warriors, fight for mankind !

Sleep, Oh Giants, into the Legends !
Script Writer Yamaguchi Kazutowa
Director Takizawa Toshifumi
Egypt,
Inca,
Maya,
Stonehenge,
San Augustin,
Olmec,
These are all megalithic cultures.
A lot of speculations have been made regarding how the ancients managed to carve, transport...
...and stack these rocks and stones, but a lot of them still remain a mystery.
Among them, the one that interests me the most...
...Are the Moais of Easter Island.
I wonder why that is ?
Could it have any relationship to those recent disturbances the giants have caused ?
Well, Moais are about four to ten meters in height,
...And they weigh more than 50 metric tons.
Nobody has the slightest idea to why, or even how these ancient statues were made.
In addition, these Moais are located 20 to 30 kilometres from where they were originally made,
But how they were even transported is yet another unsolved mystery.
According to a book I've read, legend has it that the lives of witches were infused into the Moais,
This enabled the Moais to walk freely out of their own volition.
So, the huge rock statues just got up and walked around by themselves.
Just like the recent giants we've been encountering.
And we know for sure those giants aren't mechanical robots either.
Now, the interesting aspect is...
...the composition of that one giant's arm and the composition of the Moais are strikingly similar.
On one hand, you've got the giants of Norse mythology,
And on the other, you've got the Moais of the South Pacific.
What relationship do these two even have with each other ?
Why don't we take a fancy little tour of Easter Island ?
That's a good idea !
Let's go ! Let's go !
My big round head has always wanted to see the long narrow heads of the Moais !
Right, 007 ?
Yikes ! A Moai !
Don't scare me like that, 007 !
Okay, it's been decided then !
Everyone, we're going to Easter Island to see the Moais !
Easter Island is located 3800 kilometres from Chile in South America,
And is 4000 kilometres from the Island of Tahiti.
Indeed, this remote island in the South Pacific is aptly named "The Naval of the Earth".
The island is approximately one-fourth the size of Satogashima's in Japan.
There are about 900 Moais on the whole entire island,
But most them can be found in the Rano Raraku quarry.
This is where the Moais originated.
I wonder what sorts of mysteries lie hidden within these Moais ?
I'm delighted that you're here, Professor Gilmore.
Everyone, allow me to introduce to you a close personal friend of mine, Professor Milton.
Beware, malignant wave forces are approaching.
Look ! The Moais are causing this earthquake !
You're right ! The Moai's are shaking the ground !
Professor, for your safety, please get underneath the car ! Hurry !
Milton, get under the car !
Whew ! Oh me oh my !
It looks like it has finally ceased.
Everyone, now's our chance !
We must withdraw to the Dolphin 2 at once !
Professor, what on earth was that incident we saw earlier ?
That was a supernatural phenomenon known as the "shaking rocks."
Milton, does this phenomenon occur frequently on this island ?
No, this is the first time I've ever seen this happen since I came to this island.
Then, all that must have been aimed for us !
Yes. It was a warning;
A warning to those who have come to uncover the secrets of the Moais.
The Moais feel that we are getting too deeply involved.
T - Then, if anyone finds the secret of the Moais --
That person would probably never be allowed to leave the island alive.
Which means, my brother must have been...
Milton, get a grip on yourself !
This does not testify that Galton has been killed !
But, my brother Galton has been missing...
...ever since I got a letter from him saying that he had solved the secret of the Moais !
There is no reason to doubt this speculation !
But Milton...!
Say, Professor !
Who is this Professor Galton guy anyway ?
There must be a reason behind all this.
Please tell us about it.
Well, the fact is --
Please, allow me explain everything.
To start with, Galton and I are twin brothers,
And we both studied archaeology.
It was 30 years ago from this day...
...Where we went on board Doctor Heimdall's boat, the Contagio.
It was a brave and adventurous attempt to link the ancient civilisations of Peru and Polynesia.
Boy, we were young back then.
Before long, after a few years had passed, we were somehow drawn to this mysterious island.
That was this island of the Moai, Easter Island.
My brother Galton was deeply drawn to the Moai,
But for some reason, I just could not bring myself to like the Moais.
Moreover, every time I looked at them, it felt as if they were sucking my spirit away from me.
So I left Easter Island alone, and went back to Norway, my home country.
However, my brother stayed behind, devoting all his time studying the Moais.
During those thirty years, it was as if my brother really had his soul taken from him by the Moais.
One day, I received a letter from him.
He said he finally solved the Moais' mystery, and he wanted me to come and see him.
So, I came to this island to pay him a visit at his laboratory.
But, my brother wasn't there !
No matter who I asked, I found no trace of him.
I've settled on this island ever since, in search of my brother's whereabouts.
And so, being interested in Milton's story,
I dragged all of you to come here.
Beware ! The malignant wave forces have surrounded the submarine !
I hear something ! It's coming right towards us !
C y b o r g
Cyborg warriors, fight for mankind !

I've got it !
The Moias... The Moais have started to make their move !
The Moais are walking on the bed of the ocean !
The Moais are attacking !
Me wust get out of here immediately !
Ascend at full speed !
Dolphin change ! Prepare for emersion !
It appears that the Moais are unable to surge out into the air.
This is frustrating !
No matter how hard we contend against the Moais,
Nothing is going to happen unless we can find the underlying source behind our adversaries.
If only we knew where their headquarters were...
He's right.
There is a way to beat them.
What ?!
We should trace the location of where the wave forces controlling the Moais are propagating.
Trace the wave forces ? Is that even possible ?
Yes, it is.
But in order to do that, we'll have to charge the Dolphin right into the heart of the Moai horde.
Once we're in the centre of the heart,
The computer will trace whatever feedback I have detected.
N - No ! It's far too risky --
Let's give it a shot, Professor !
No ! Stop !
Descending at 30° !
Head speed, 203 ! Charge !
Moais approaching, 200 meters ahead !
500 meters behind us, the Moai horde is advancing towards us !
009, could you make the Dolphin turn 180°, and charge directly into the centre of the horde ?
W - What ?! Don't be ridiculous !
All right. I'll see what I can do.
001, how was it ? Were you able to trace it ?
It's been traced successfully. I'll display it on the infrared monitor.
Enlarge it on the infrared monitor.
Adjust it to actual size for us.
It's the opened-mouthed Moai !
The "opened-mouthed Moai" ?
It is said that if you toss a coin into the Moai's mouth,
You'll return to this scenic tourist site of Easter Island and meet the Moais again.
However, if anyone enters the Moai's mouth to take the coins,
A curse is placed upon them and they die.
Recently, about five days ago, an inhabitant fell victim to this phenomenon.
That's weird !
That's probably just to keep people away.
Cursed Moais, huh ?
Did you find anything yet ?
N - No.
Tracing wave forces certainly is tiring, isn't it ?
And 001 is sleeping at a crucial moment in time too.
We left 003 to look after 001,
Maybe we should have brought them along after all.
"Either do it now or regret it later." People used to say that all the time back in the old days.
Rather than just muttering a load of rubbish over there, why don't you help us out a bit, 002 ?!
I'll help out later...
Well of all things...!
Is something the matter, 009 ?
Take a look at the composition of the wall.
Up until now, it was a dugout cavern, but it's different here.
Over here, the wall is comprised of piled up stones.
On top of that, if you look even farther, it turns back into a dugout wall again.
Professor, hurry !
Don't worry about me !
We owe you one, 005 !
I - Is everybody okay ?
Everyone's safe and sound.
There's an exit !
W - What's this...?!
Milton, look !
It looks just like a factory of sorts !
Shall we go down there ?
There's something really creepy about this place...
What's that ?!
It's written in the ancient runic alphabet !
What does it say ?
Let me see...
Milton...
Galton ! Is that you, Galton ?
It's been a long time, hasn't it...
G - Galton !
It's my older brother...!
He's a entirely different person, but it's definitely Professor Galton !
Galton, what happened to you ?!
This is the secret of the Moais.
From here, I can control the Moais to resurrect the giants of Jotunheim.
Jotunheim ?
The land of the giants ?!
This is a psychic power amplification device.
I can control the giants in any way I want.
So you're the one behind all those recent occurrences...?!
I'm going to take over the entire world !
I'm going to become one with the gods !
Now that you know my secrets, I cannot allow you to return.
This bloody well doesn't look so good !
Oh golly goodness gracious me !!
Split up !
On my signal, aim for the head !
Fire !!
We did it !
He stuck on...
...a different head !
No one shall leave here alive !
Galton, stop this madness ! Please put a stop to the giant !
Farewell, Milton...
Galton ! Galton !!
Galton !
Galton !!
Galton !!!
Giant, oh giant !
I'm over here !
Come !
Come and get me !
What's wrong ? Just destroy me !
What's the matter ? Come after me !
Don't be foolish !
I see, Professor Milton intends to die with Professor Galton !
Watch out, Professor !
Acceleration device !
Galton ! Galton !!
Beware the gods of Ĉsgard !
The gods are planning to rule the world !
The gods of Ĉsgard...?
The cavern is collapsing ! Everyone, retreat !
Galton...
Beware the gods of Ĉsgard !
The gods are planning to rule the world...!
Now in search for eternal slumber, the giants return once again as mere legends.
But, what lies ahead of the cyborg warriors are the beginnings of a new battle...

I Desire Not the Tears of a Goddess
Script Writer Sakai Akiyoshi
Director Miura Masanori
This is London, a city known for its thick fog.
The building we can barely see in front of us is the Bank of England.
I am the goddess, Freya.
I am here to reclaim the tears I have shed,
The tears of avarice that I have implanted in you !
...So there you have it.
Those self-proclaimed gods have shown up in England as well.
What ?! Even my country ?!
But, why would the gods even steal gold for ?
Could it have been the god of poverty ?
This is what was written in the old Norse myths :
In Ĉsgard, the city of gods, resides a goddess named Freya.
That goddess had been wandering all over the world,
...In search of her lost lover.
Legend has it that the tears she shed during her search turned to gold.
'Cause of gold, greed emerged as a part of human nature, huh ?
And now she comes to take back the gold ? That's absurd !
It appears to me that the gods themselves are the incarnation of avarice !
Go to Africa. Something is about to happen.
Africa ?
As 001's telepathy indicates, you must go to the Transvaal province in South Africa.
It's the world's foremost gold mining country.
I'm absolutely certain that they'll strike there !
We've finally reached South Africa.
Okay. We'll be entering the Transvaal province soon.
What on earth happened here ?
It's as if it's a ghost town, isn't it ?
Anyways, there should be someone here. Let's split up and look around.
Come back here !
Phenos, hand over that necklace !
No ! Anything but this necklace !
Do you intend to defy God ?
Just hand it over, willya ?!
No ! No !!!
Why the hell did you do that for ?!
Who the hell are you ?!
We're just a band of travellers.
You're not from around here, so get lost !
This is none of your business anyway !
When someone's in distress, we don't just stand by and watch doing absolutely nothing !
You don't even know what the hell's going on, and you're mouthin' off at us like some wise-ass !
If we don't offer her gold necklace to God, our lives will be at stake !
No !
This is my most cherished necklace that Ozul gave me as a present !
Ha ! Ozul, huh ?
You mean that bastard who defies God by mining gold ?
Phenos, the god says she'll obliterate this town if we don't give her every little bit of gold there is !
Do you want the whole entire town to be destroyed ?!
But I just can't bring myself to have any faith in a god like that !
What ?!
It's up to the individual to decide whether they want to have faith in god or not.
What did you say ?!
Get them !!
Leave them to me.
We'll get you for this !
Thank you, everyone.
And you are ?
I'm Phenos.
Ozul !
Phenos ?
Just as I was being threatened to have my necklace taken away,
These people came to save me.
Who in blazes are they ?
They're not bad people; they're just a band of travelers.
Why did you come here ?
I told you never to come here, it's too dangerous !
Who the hell are you ?
Get out of here ! Outsiders are unwanted here !
What are you saying ? These people are the ones who...
Shut up !
You too, Phenos. You must leave this place.
Please, I beg of you, stop mining for gold...!
I don't want you to be in danger anymore !
What are you saying ? Right now, this is our best chance to mine for gold !
Once all this is finished, we can both live happily !
I don't want that ! We can be happy even without gold !
Shut up !
What do you think you're doing ?!
Stay out of this, you outsider !
Yeah, we're outsiders all right.
But let me just say one thing : You people are ignorant !
Yeah, do you think you're even capable of defeating a god ?
A "god," you say ?!
Would you consider someone who destroys towns and steals everything in sight, a "god" ?!
That's a devil !
We not about to let any devil take our gold !
But if you defy them, they'll kill all of you.
I don't care !
No matter who tries to stop us, we'll continue to mine gold anyway !
And we won't let anyone have it !!
The gold belongs to us !
Yeah ! You said it !
Ozul...!
You got that ? So just take Phenos and leave !
Ozul, look at this.
Phenos, happy birthday.
This is proof that we will be with each other forever.
I'll never forget that day.
This necklace is all the gold we need !
My mother was killed by that god...
Furthermore, what would I do if I were to lose you as well ?
I'll never leave your side even if you stop mining.
Let's get back to work !
It seems futile to even bother stopping him.
Now all of you, you'd better get out of here.
The god left us a message saying that she might appear somewhere in the vicinity tonight.
A messenger from god...?
You're getting in the way just standing around like that, so get the hell out of here right now !
Jeez, what an asshole...!
Phenos !
What happened ?!
Foolish humans !
You shall all relinquish the gold you have mined over to the gods !
Heck no ! This gold here belongs to us !
Run, Phenos !
Now !!
Watch out !!
Phenos...!
Phenos !
Ozul...!
Phenos !
Ozul !
Phenos !
Ozul !
Ozul...!
Phenos !
Wait !

Enough !
I'm terribly sorry to have such an incompetent underling.
The reason why the cat fled from battle was because...
...it winced at the overpowering display of love that woman protecting her fallen mate had.
The cat's heart, in other words, is your heart.
What you are insinuating, my lord ?
You were once the goddess of love.
However, you have foolishly wandered around the world,
weeping wherever you went, in search of your missing lover.
You must take full responsibility for the all the tears you have shed all over the world.
Don't you forget about those hawk wings.
Ever since those wings were attached to your body,
You were no longer the goddess of love, but the goddess of war !
Listen... Discard whatever feelings of love and kindness you still have, for you shall do battle.
Bring every bit of gold back to the hands of the gods !
This time, I will not allow anyone who defies the gods to live !
What's on your mind ?
I was wondering why the cat withdrew.
I see... Why do you suppose it did ?
Perhaps it was overwhelmed by the love Phenos displayed while protecting Ozul...
Come to think of it, Freya is the goddess of love.
But now, there's no doubt on my mind that someone has changed her for the worse.
It looks like they've arrived !
I wonder if the enemy really is a god ?
To the mines, hurry !
Stop ! Please !
Or Ozul will die !!
Please, save Ozul !
Please, save Ozul...!
Whoever defies a god shall end up like this !
If you want to save this man...
...You must kill those fools over there !
Only then shall you be spared by the grace of God !
Ozul !!
Dear God...!
We must kill those nine people !
If we do, God will forgive us !
Kill them !
Kill each and every single one of them !
What are you doing ?!
You people are being manipulated by that witch's magic !
Be quiet ! We have no choice but to obey god's commands.
What shall we do, 009 ? Should we get them ?
We can't ! These people are innocent !
Shoot 'em !
Wait ! Please !
Phenos !
Your lover was just taken hostage by God !
Don't you even want to save Ozul ?!
Of course I do !
Then, we must kill these people...!
These people saved my life !
If you're going to shoot anyone, shoot me instead !
I'm pretty certain that Ozul doesn't want anymore victims for the sake of his actions.
Phenos, you're such a wonderful person...
I can understand exactly how he feels.
I promise, no matter what it takes, we will save Ozul.
Bringing sorrow to this kindhearted Phenos... Not even a god can be forgiven for this !
Able to distinguish even the smallest of alterations,
003 is endowed with an eyesight more acute than radar.
Did you see anything ?
Yes, about twenty kilometre away, there lies an old castle inside a forest up ahead.
Okay, let's be on our way !
Everyone, here we go !
What is this place...?
This is incredible...!
It's so beautiful !
Be careful ! This has to be some kind of a trap !
Don't shoot ! It's magic ! We'll just have to fall through them !
Ouch ! I fell right on my rump ! Ow !
Here I go !
Freya !!
You humans who possess powers that rival that of gods,
What in blazes are you ?
Oh, shut up !
Taking the lives of innocent persons, is this how a god treats people ?!
Silence !!
Unless you obey the gods, you too shall end up like this !
Ozul !
Ozul !!
You possesses gold ! I won't allow for it !
Phenos !
Ozul...
Damn you, Freya !!
Take this you impudent little wretch !
Ozul...
Phenos...?
Phenos !!
Phenos...?!
Phenos !
I - I am the goddess of love, aren't I ?
Being the goddess of love, I have taken away the precious love those two had for each other.
Forgive me ! Please, forgive me !
Forgive me...! Forgive me !
My goodness...!
This is all the gold that's been stolen worldwide !
Phenos...
This... This necklace... It really meant that much to you...?
I was such a fool.
Even more than this necklace, even more than gold...
I wanted you to be alive more than anything else !
We don't want the tears shed by a god.
The tears we shed ourselves are beautiful the way they are !
Breaking into the human emotions of love and desire,
The the gods have attempted to implant their powers of malefic intent deep inside our hearts.
But 009 will not allow such acts of deviance to proceed.
...Even if the enemy is a god.

A god appears in the plateaus of Tibet,
Forcing the inhabitants to build an enormous shrine in his honour.
Both the young and elderly are being held captive inside a dark dungeon...
