The time is one hundred years ago.
Jean and Nadia escaped from the mighty submarine Nautilus
when it was sinking.
With Marie and King, they washed up on a desert island.
The children began life on that island all alone.
They found themselves growing up day by day.
Nadia began to trust Jean because of his devotedness,
and she kissed him for the first time and then again.
She has also grown up mentally,
Iearning that a friend in need
is truly a friend indeed.
Just as things were looking up,
a terrible typhoon hit the island,
and blew away their peace and civilization.
But fortune's wheel is always turning,
and Mother Nature presented a huge island before them.
They found Grandis and the others on the new island,
and began living peacefully on the floating island.
But Nadia's fate is not so easy.
Jean and Nadia discovered a large cave
containing a structure just like the Nautilus.
Jean learned that the moving island was artificial.
In the cavern, Nadia was told by a mysterious alien
that she was not a human being.
She was very shocked.
Suddenly, the island began to sink.
Grandis and the rest began their escape on the Gratan.
Jean arrived just in time to help Nadia escape.
Now that they have lost their peaceful place to live,
they have set sail for the African continent.
It seems that Nadia is just as before.
However...
What's that?
A Garfish!
A Garfish? A Garfish!
A Garfish?
That's Gargoyle's submarine.
A submarine?! How lucky!
Let's ask them to help us!
Ahoy!
Help us! Ahoy!
We're...
You idiot! We're...
You idiot!
What are you doing?! They'll find us!
I'm trying to be found! Do you want to stay lost?
Shut up, you idiot!
What did you say?! Withdraw those words!
You moron! That submarine belongs to Gargoyle!
We've been fighting against them.
They have their eye on Nadia.
What?
They'll kill us if they find us.
Sanson!
We'll win the game by making the first move.
Go to hell!
Amazing!
What happened?
It's obvious! I sunk it with my shot! What happened?
It's obvious! I sunk it with my shot!
No, it must be chasing the sunken island.
How do you know that?
My sixth sense!
But why?
Why did Gargoyle's submarine appear there?
And the island sank suddenly.
We could see something on the ground while it was sinking.
What happened there, Jean?
Nadia is still sleeping. Will you tell us about it?
There are so many things we don't understand.
A lot of things have happened since we met.
Gargoyle...
The Tower of Babel...
The minefield...
The crab robot...
The valley of ancient fish...
The ruins of Atlantis...
The giant nautilus...
The base in Antarctica...
The space battleship...
Each one by itself was unbelievable.
Nobody will believe all the things we've seen.
That's true.
I would think those things could never have happened.
Come on, what are you talking about? You're all liars.
How nice!
The greatest braggart in the world just called us liars.
There are lots of things we wouldn't have believed
if we hadn't see them ourselves.
So?
So, the things I saw on that island are also unbelievable.
But an island sank.
What could be more unbelievable?
I'll tell you everything some other time.
Nadia?
Can't you sleep?
We'll be in Africa soon.
I know.
You don't look so pleased.
No, that's not true.
You've been wanting to go to Africa for so long.
I wish I could have taken you there in my own invention.
It doesn't matter.
We are able to go to Africa because you fixed the Gratan.
Thank you, Jean.
But, Nadia...
What happened beyond that wall?
What's that?!
The space battleship!
We've got trouble! Wake up, everybody!
What is it? It's after midnight!
It's the space battleship!
What? First a Garfish, now the space battleship?
Is it my turn again?
Oh, my God!
Somebody, save us!
I see! The gas is rushing out the hole made in the balloon.
How lucky! We'll get to Africa sooner,
though it won't be a comfortable ride.
But we can't control our speed this way!
It means we're going to crash someplace going this speed!
I can't take this!
I thought I was going to die.
My Gratan is indeed great!
There's not a scratch on it!
Where in the world are we?
It must be Heaven.
God and the angels must be waiting beyond this hull.
If I just open this hatch...
Jumbo?
Jumbo! Jumbo!
Jumbo!
Oh my, who does he think he is? Jumbo!
Oh my, who does he think he is?
A God or a king?
He thinks he's something all right.
Amazing, Ayerton! You can understand what they say?
Of course!
To tell you the truth,
I was an honorary professor at Cambridge University.
I majored in linguistics!
Jumbo!
Is that true?
Why do you ask?
He just keeps saying "jumbo".
Jumbo! Jumbo! Jumbo!
Hey, Professor, where are they taking us?
They say they welcome us as honored guests!
This isn't what you told us!
What does he say?
He talks too fast to understand.
You lied to us again! You fraud!
This isn't Africa!
It's totally different from what I imagined.
What will happen to us?
It's this idiot's fault.
Is my life going to end this way?
Is he going to use that?!
How cruel!
Say something! How cruel!
Say something!
Jumbo...
Is that all you can say? You really are a fraud! Jumbo...
Is that all you can say? You really are a fraud!
Where did you get this?
What?! He speaks our language!
What is your name?
Nadia.
Nadia?!
Nadia?
What's happening here?
Are they friends?
I don't know what happened,
but I don't think they'll kill us.
Where is Nadia?
She's with Hamahama, I imagine.
What are they doing?
She's probably trying to find out where her native land is.
There's nothing to worry about.
You look extremely worried though.
Were you born in this village?
Yes, I was born and brought up in this village.
When is your birthday?
Birthday?
I was born sometime in January, 1 877.
I envy you, Hamahama.
I don't know where or when I was born.
I'm very sorry.
I'm looking for the place where I was born.
It must be somewhere under this wide sky.
Where has she gone?
Isn't she back yet?
I see.
What a poor boy!
Doing that is too cruel.
It's not that bad.
Nadia's grown up enough to fall in love at first sight.
But that's not good!
You're a girl who fell in love at first sight,
and suffered a tragic result.
You mean the Senorita's fake marriage?
Grandis was swindled?
Oh, be quiet! Grandis was swindled?
Oh, be quiet!
Don't make fun of the sweet memory of my youth!
You've really become mild.
You used to say "Shut up!"
And "Don't mention that!" And other things like that.
Once safe on shore, we pray no more.
Anyway, it doesn't matter. It's but a beautiful memory.
A beautiful memory?
This is our guardian god, Shisa Shisa.
Shisa Shisa? It looks just like King.
My father told me that the blue stone you have
Iooks like the one the ruler of the Silver Kingdom had.
The Silver Kingdom?
A long time ago, beyond this village, The Silver Kingdom?
A long time ago, beyond this village,
there was a kingdom made of silver.
But when I was still a child, a big war took place
and the kingdom was destroyed.
A silver column that the king of the Silver kingdom gave us
as a token of friendship is in here.
Evil people from Europe, America, Arabia, and others
have attacked our village trying to take the column.
But we're a people who've never been defeated.
Because we are protected by Shisa Shisa,
the evil ones are no match for us.
That's wonderful.
It's not us. We just do what we must.
By the way, we must apologize for how rude we were to you.
We thought you had come to take our column too.
No, that's okay. I'm an evil girl compared with you.
A pretty girl like you could never be evil.
Oh, no!
My, you flatter me so prettily!
No, it's the truth. We are a people who never lie.
Oh, really? Well...
Oh, no! What am I doing?!
What's this?
The rightful heir of the Toris Megistos
will see the beginning of human life.
His power will bring destruction to every human
three times over,
and the light of Babel will incinerate every city.
Nadia, you can read these words?!
You really are from Tartessos.
Do you know something about Tartessos?
Yes, I do.
Please, tell me about it!
I...
Nadia...
Cheer up, Jean!
Females make up half of the human race.
You'll have lots of chances.
I'd rather be with a machine than a girl anyway.
I like machines. They don't complain.
You can remodel them if you have the technique.
You can't do that to girls.
What?
You're saying the town where you were born is near here?
Yes, Hamahama told me so.
How nice for you!
And Hamahama is such a nice boy.
Hey, have you seen King anywhere?
King?
I haven't seen him for a while.
Where could he have gone?
Did you find him?
No.
Not anywhere. No.
Not anywhere.
Did he run away from home again?
Again?!
Yes, King is a very jealous lion. Again?!
Yes, King is a very jealous lion.
He ran away once when he saw Jean and Nadia kissing.
Kissing?!
She shouldn't have changed her mind if she did that.
She's too cruel!
Keep this a secret, okay?
What did you say?!
King is missing. Will you search for him with me?
King is the name of the lion you were with, right?
Yes, I'm so worried about him!
That's terrible. Let's go find him!
It's a terrible sight to see.
Marie will go and tell Jean about this.
Why are you going to do that?
I feel sorry for Jean.
So, I'm going to give him a chance.
King is lost?
Please, Jean, help me find him.
Sure, but...
King!
Where are you going?
Why do we have to run after we've made it to Africa?
Yeah! Where's the Gratan?
The engine isn't working very well.
Why is it always useless when we need it the most?
I didn't know King could run so fast.
Could he have drunk the red fruit juice?
Red fruit juice?
It's a secret medicine handed down in our village.
By taking it, we gain a strange magical power.
What a cute lion!
What a poor lion!
Well, well, how unusual.
It's a white lion cub.
King!
King! King!
Everyone, get down!
What's that?
They have an eye on our treasure. What's that?
They have an eye on our treasure.
Treasure?
We thought we'd beaten them. Why are they still here? Treasure?
We thought we'd beaten them. Why are they still here?
Hamahama! Is that you Hamahama, hiding out there?
How does he know we're here?
Is this the one you're looking for, Hamahama?
King!
Well, Hamahama?
I think the time has come to settle our problem quietly. Don't you agree?
Shut up! I don't like your roundabout way of talking!
Very well, I'll give it to you straight then.
If you want this lion to remain alive,
you must give us your treasure.
I'll give you twenty-four hours.
If you don't answer by then,
I'll put this lion cub to death!
