192 U.C. (United Century )
Humans are on the brink of extinction
The Orbital Ring System, a giant space base
that the humans built for space exploration,
has been taken over by the mysterious life forms ''Radam''
Man are forced to stay on earth,
where they can not ward off attacks from the Orbital Ring System
The land is burnt
Cities are destroyed
Earth is becoming a ruin
Die, Tekkaman Blade!
Voltekka
Let's go back and get D-Boy
Aki, we still don't know if he's a friend or foe
How can we take that dangerous thing back with us?
Our mission is to bring D-Boy back to earth
I know
''Power of the Space Knights''
Nice work! We showed them
That was intense
Yeah, it feels like I've eaten a week's worth of candy
Miri,
don't you have another way to describe it?
Isn't it true? We have always been the loser
Rebin, aren't you glad?
That's not what I meant
Okay, let's report in to the commander
Come on, D-Boy
Huh?
Strange
D-Boy
Where did D-Boy go?
I don't belong here
If you guys don't want to go into space
I'll just look for someone else
Wait up, D-Boy
What now?
Can you help us?
Work with us
I'd like to do a check on your body
My body?
About the system that turns you into ''Tekkaman''
Can I?
I see
Pulse 1 72
Blood pressure 128/63
Body temperature 36.3 C
Blood, skeleton, internal organs
All normal
No different than an ordinary human being
The only thing is the crystal-like structure underneath the armpits
The rest...It's hard to figure out
the reason why he's so powerful
So you believe there's something special about the system?
I think so
Miri, how's the system analysis going?
Not good The important parts are all charred
I can't even make out the parts
You'll just have to ask him directly
The Orbital Ring System
Where are you taking me?
My job is done here
You're right. It's up to you whether you want to leave or stay
But before you decide, I want to show you something
Show me?
That's...
Radam
We know too little about Radam
All we know is that they come to earth as living beings,
then they go underground and turn into some sort of plants
That's all
But you know they're called ''Radam''
and their goal is to take over earth
If you know anything else Can you tell me?
What exactly is Radam?
And how is it that a normal person like you
can turn into Tekkaman Blade?
An analysis about this guy
I'm sorry, I...
Really?
I'd like to know too
All I know is that
I'm the only one on earth who can defeat the Radam
That's all
I'm sorry, but my job is done here
Yes
But even if you leave here you won't find any spaceships
Where will you go?
How are you going to fight the Radam without a spaceship?
It's not so bad to stay here,
for you or for us
I give up
D-Boy
Hi, D-Boy. Want to join us?
Is the physical exam over, kid?
Yes
Then how about a test of physical strength?
D-Boy, you can battle it out with Aki
Well, you'll probably have to transform into Tekkaman
Sounds interesting
Want to give it a try, D-Boy?
No
What's the point?
I get enough fights with the Radam
D-Boy
''Radam'' again?
This ''Radam'' expert is no fun at all
I am General Colbert of the Earth Defence Force
I need to see the responsible of this base
Please give permission to land
Welcome, General Colbert
Long time no see, Freeman
I had wanted to get together, but now's not the time
Time is money
You're saying...
Stop pretending You should know that
a section of the Orbital Ring System has broken free
Yes
Section 23 has fallen off
It will enter the atmosphere in 30 minutes
2/3 of its mass will burn off during the descent
But it's simply too big
We know that the remains will hit the ground
The question is where
Area X2008
Yes, there is an ammunition factory there
So what would you, General Colbert,
like us to do?
Let us have Tekkaman
Huh? For the army?
Yes
D-Boy
Do you like Miri?
Stop pretending You look at that kid differently
She's like my sister
Where are you going to go?
I don't know yet
Oh yeah? Then stay
I can't
Why not? Why? Freeman
The mass of the falling section is just too big
It's going to be hard to destroy it even with a missile
But we might be able to do it
if we had Tekkaman's help
Please take a look at his records
D-Boy is a human being
in any way and form
It's obvious he's an ordinary citizen
So?
It seems to me you're implying that D-Boy is some sort of weapon
He's human, not a weapon
Not even you or me...
No, not anybody
has the right to order an ordinary citizen
Freeman
I had planned to handle this in a gentlemanly manner,
but I guess it's not going to work
Chief Freeman
It's nice to have loyal subordinates
Colbert, you...
This base is already surrounded by my troops
When I press this button
this base will be under attack
Come on, give me Tekkaman
20 minutes until the section hits the ground
Come on, give me Tekkaman
Or do you want to perish with the base?
What will it be, Freeman?
General Colbert, you'll die too if you press that button
Freeman, are you stupid?
Don't underestimate my troops
There is a special force on guard here on the base
If they move in with the troops,
the base will be turned into ashes,
except the spot I'm standing on, that is
Come on, give it up
Freeman
Tekkaman is of no use to you anyway
Only the army
will bring out the best in him
1 5 minutes until the section touches ground
Freeman
D-Boy and the Space Knights
Report to the Command Room immediately
Repeat D-Boy and the Space Knights
Report to the Command Room immediately
Miri, is Rebin here?
And Honda too?
Are you D-Boy, Tekkaman Blade?
Very spirited. Not bad
Okay, this is the first time
that you have appeared officially as Space Knights
Before this, you were asked to
keep your identities a secret
Commander, you mean...
Ten minutes until touchdown
All crews prepare
What?
Give Tekkaman to the army?
Yes, and I will hear no objections
Commander
You're going to do what he says?
I have no choice
Exactly
D-Boy, the rest is up to you
Will you help the army?
Help?
I'm not the one who's going to do the helping
That's the job of the army
What?
No matter how big the Earth Defence Force is,
you won't win those guys
There's only one man who can defeat them
And that is me
So they are the ones who should help me
If you don't agree then get out of my way
Find a place to hide and watch
You...
Wait. No
Shoot if you dare
Don't you want me? Huh?
You old military fart
Begin attack
Well? Didn't you hear me?
General Colbert
Five minutes until touchdown
The Orbital Ring System section
is about to enter the atmosphere
Commander, we have an incoming call
What? Ignore it
But its priority one
Who is it?
It's the president
What?
Mr. Colbert
What are you doing here?
Ah, I'm asking that Tekkaman be turned over to army
How? By pointing a gun at them?
You fool
I know about everything
From now on, the Space Knights
are members of a commando force,
with Tekkaman as the leader
They are free from the control of the army
But, Mr. President
Do you hear me, General?
This is not a request, it's an order
Have the army stop the attacks now
Help the Space Knights destroy the falling section
End of story
Stop the attacks
Well, then
You may give your orders now, Space Knights
Wait
I never said anything about joining the Space Knights
D-Boy
I don't like to be ordered around
whether it's the army or you
But
Looks like the food here is better than that of the army
Blue Earth, let's go
Yes, sir
Two minutes until the target reaches the atmosphere
That's it
It's through
I know
Come on
Look
''Radam'' is on it
One more minute
Tekset
Tekkaman Blade
30 seconds until it enters the atmosphere
There are too many of them
1 5 seconds until it enters the atmosphere
It's through? Ten more seconds
9...8...
7...6...
5...4...
3...2...

Voltekka
It worked
It's completely destroyed
It worked. That was cool
Tekkaman, that was beautiful
Firework to commemorate the founding of the Space Knights
Not bad
Tekkaman Blade
Kid, don't think..
Don't think I'll give up so easily
Tekkaman Blade suddenly breaks away from battle
The ''Radam'' Buggers begin their attacks on the Blue Earth
On the next episode of Tekkaman Blade,
''Unreasonable Escape''
Holding back the tears behind the mask
