Oh, Our Green Planet!
The moon orbits the Earth with the same side always facing it.
The other side is never seen.
The Vega Empire, after experiencing defeat by Duke Freed,
plans to make their base on the hidden side of the moon.
[ Skull Moon Base ]
All right! Let's go!
Yes, sir!
Commander Gandal, I'm reporting in.
You have a lot of nerve to show your face after that defeat, Blaki.
Sir, I am sorry.
I did not realize he was on Earth...
Idiot!
With the mighty Vega fleet, how dare you lose to him.
But, Sir, he possesses Grendizer!
I already know.
Should he decide to go up against us with Grendizer,
we will be forced to rethink our invasion plans!
Gandal.
Yes, Emperor Vega.
Why is the mighty Vega fleet afraid of him?
To conquer the solar system, we must successfully invade planet Earth.
Listen to my orders carefully, Gandal.
Gather the forces of the Vega fleet and crush him.
Until then, assume that the invasion of planet Earth is on hold.
Do you understand me, Gandal?!
Yes, sir!
I'll be waiting for your next report.
Yes sir!
Did you hear that, Blaki?
We must crush him no matter the cost.
Commander Gandal, please instruct me on our next mission.
If only he did not possess Grendizer.
Commander Gandal,
why are you cowering?
Eye for an eye.
You must take revenge!
I am thinking about that.
Do not hesitate for a single moment!
Blaki!
Commence the next attack immediately.
Yes, sir!
Alright then.
We will show him the power of the Vega fleet.
Daisuke!
Father, please take a look.
You say this is a sign of an invasion?
Without a doubt.
They want revenge for their last defeat.
They will arrive in two to three days.
I can't do it.
I do not wish to pilot Grendizer again.
I do not wish to spread war on this beautiful green planet.
But... Emperor Vega will never give up.
They will...
without a doubt, attack Earth again.
Daisuke!
Daisuke...
Is there no way to escape from one's own destiny?
Kouji...
Why are you following me?
I want to know your true identity.
You sure are paranoid.
I am Genzo Umon's son, Daisuke.
Who do you think you are fooling?
You may fool others, but not me.
I am just a citizen who loves this peaceful green planet.
Why don't we just leave it at that?
I don't think so.
I've got an early morning.
Please move aside.
After you tell me who you really are.
Don't you run away!
Are you hurt?
Kouji!
What are you doing?
Just tell me who you really are!
Feel better now, Kouji?
No matter what...
I am going to find out who you really are.
I only wanted to live as a human,
and lead a simple life...
On this beautiful green planet...
Can I not even obtain the simple joys of life?
Why?
Why is that?!
This is it.
Uncle Dumbei,
could you pull the throttle lever?
All right. Leave it to me.
Are you sure, dad?
This is not a job for an old man, dad.
You fool!
Don't let my looks deceive you, I'm still very young!
Is he really alright?
Jeez, I'm so scared, I can't look.
Keep quiet! It's just a throttle or something.
Thro-ttle...
There are a lot of switches to choose from.
Please focus and pull on the throttle.
Throttle!
I am sitting down!
He's confusing "throttle" with "swattoru," which means sitting down.
Not sitting! Throttle!
What are you saying?
He's so thick headed...
You really are clueless, jeez.
Please pull on this lever.
Why didn't you say that sooner?
That's good.
The humming sound of this engine,
I feel like the pilot of this vessel!
I feel like I am flying!
Uncle!
Stop, stop!
Please bring it down!
I am really flying!
Uncle!
I said stop! Stop!
You untamed saucer!
Stop, stop! Stop it already!
Not again!
What can I do?
Let me off!
You finally woke up, uncle.
Daisuke!
What happened to me?
You were unconscious inside the flying TFO.
That was not a dream.
I saw it with my own eyes.
It was for real, there's no mistaking it.
Looks like I was right after all, Daisuke.
So who are you, really?
Kouji.
Looks like I was unable to fool you after all.
So it is true!
Well, Daisuke is...
not my real son.
Let me explain the truth about Daisuke to you.
Daisuke was a prince from the Freed planet in the Vega system.
His real name is Duke Freed.
Duke Freed, a prince from planet Freed?
Planet Freed was an advanced, peaceful, warless planet.
But...
One day, to conquer the Vega system,
the Vega Empire invaded our planet.
They killed innocent civilians,
and set our green planet on fire.
Also...
Inside those flames...
My father,
and my mother.
Their lives were taken.
After the technological advancements of planet Freed were taken by Emperor Vega,
a powerful war machine was created.
That was Grendizer.
Vega created Grendizer to conquer all the planetary systems.
However...
I couldn't let him have Grendizer at any cost.
I escaped from the prison,
stole Grendizer, and escaped the planet.
Grendizer flew across countless galaxies,
and discovered a beautiful shining blue planet.
That was Earth.
I came across a crashed Grendizer,
and unconscious Duke Freed.
That was the fateful day that brought Duke Freed and I together.
Is that why you adopted him as your own son?
Yes. It's been two years now.
I see...
Daisuke.
Please forgive me for what I did last night.
Don't worry.
That's not like you.
I'll keep this secret to myself.
Looks like I won't be looking forward to getting punched for no reason anymore.
Daisuke!
Dad said he needs your help getting the cows back in the stable.
Oh, I see.
Is it that time already?
Well, why doesn't Kouji help us as well?
Let's go before the sun sets!
Alright, you don't need to pull on me so hard!
Hurry up, Daisuke!
Sis is waiting outside in the Jeep!
You are persistent, Goro.
Daisuke...
Sorry for reminding you of your sad past.
That's alright, Dad.
I think Kouji understands now.
I wish I could have let you live a simple life as a human being.
Professor!
A flying object is approaching from the moon!
What?!
That's the Vega fleet.
Daisuke's prediction was on target.
The inevitable is here.
Kouji.
Don't throw your life away so hastily.
I'm from Earth.
I need to protect Earth.
Kouji.
I intend to be a human and protect it as well.
No matter what you say,
I'm going to fight them.
If you want to fight so bad,
then you'll have to get past me first!
So be it!
I have nothing against you,
but I have to go fight!
Let's go!
Damn you!
Fight like a human!
Kouji.
I am only doing this to protect you.
This green planet.
This beautiful planet.
I won't let them do as they please!
Even if it costs my life, I will protect it.
My new home.
Duke Freed!
Hello, Moshi-Moshi,
Ni Hao, Konnichiwa!
This is Gunbei!
If you can hear me, please respond!
All set.
Let's go!
Grendizer, go!
Daisuke...
I can not protect you from your fate any longer.
Just...
Please return to us safely.
To this green planet.
Damn you, Vega fleet!
Screw Crusher Punch!
Spin Saucer!
Double Hand Beam!
Hey Kouji! This is no time to sleep!
Wake up!
Don't you know there are UFOs right above us?!
Where's Daisuke?
I don't know.
But we've got to get out of here!
Dang it!
Space Thunder!
Damn you...
Launch the saucer beast!
Yes sir!
Saucer Beast Game Game
There you are,
Saucer Beast!
Space Thunder!
Now's our opportunity!
Execute our plan to overpower him!
Damn it!
Damn!
He plans to crush me into the ground!
Chute in!
Dizer go!
Oh no, I can't get out!
Damn it!
I can't go down like this!
Crush him! Crush him!
At this rate,
he and Grendizer will be crushed into pieces!
Damn!
800 meters left!
700 meters!
600 meters!
500 meters!
400 meters!
300 meters!
200 meters!
Daisuke. Are you alright?
Kouji...
The enemy is coming from behind!
He's going to attack you from behind!
Daisuke!
Daisuke...
I can not protect you from your fate any longer.
But... Please return to us safely.
To this green planet.
Damn!
He's in pain now.
Saucer Beast Game Game, drag him down to the bottom of hell.
This is my chance!
Space Thunder!
I was able to protect it...
My new home...
Can you hear me, Daisuke?
Father...
You fought well.
Kouji...
Had you not come in time, I would be...
Daisuke.
You protected this planet as one of us.
Kouji.
Even if it costs my life,
I will protect it.
This green planet.
