How can I ever forget that day when...
wearing my favorite white straw hat...
with the cool summer breeze against my face...
the sky and the wheat fields ablaze in red...
in the midst of all that glowing red...
I chanced upon a ghostly demon...
a white and very gentle demon.
And on that day...
I lost my favorite white hat...
and my parents...
and myself as a human being.
Just as I thought, You are Blade, right?
How I longed to meet you.
A dream?
A dream I'm sure.
It's been a week since we've been placed on special tactical alert.
A counteroffensive is in the works... so it is rumored.
All we have to do is sit back, relax and be thankful.
Let's relax. Now's the time to enjoy it. Forget Radam.
Relax, like them over there.
I guess you're right. Yumi? Coming?
Yumi? Yumi!
What's up? Something bothering you?
- No, nothing. - I got it!
- You've got boys on your mind! - David!
Could be...
- Huh? - Serious?
The truth is...
Hmm... The white Tekkaman is Yumi's prince, right?
By that she means Blade?
Right.
When mankind was first attacked by Radam ten years ago...
The hero who single-handedly fought to save mankind... Tekkaman Blade.
But remember?
After that battle, no one knew if Blade was dead or alive.
I don't think he has disappeared.
He's still alive... inside that girl.
I wonder if it's Blade.
It just doesn't look like she's dreaming.
Dark glasses and hair all combed back?
I've never seen anyone like that.
I actually saw him.
Don't get so excited. No one is calling you a liar.
- Yumi would never tell a lie. - All right, all right.
But I have no idea what kind of an individual he is.
So? How do you feel about him?
I still don't know.
Aren't you trying to fool yourself?
I think you have a crush on that guy.
Be honest, put your thoughts into action.
- David! Lay off her, will you? - Shut up!
Listen, Yumi.
You may regret what you do...
but you will regret it more if you don't take any action.
David.
Then again, I wouldn't put too much faith in this advice of mine.
Regret more if you don't...
Chief, I've got the results of the analysis.
The worst predictions have come true.
Chief, it's happened again.
What do I do now? I just can't seem to find him.
How I miss him.
David...
Wait.
Wait up, Blade.
Here... I think it was.
"D"?
You...
Forgive me for entering without asking.
I... I am Yumi Francois.
Do you remember me?
Isn't your name...
"D." May I call you D?
Isn't that a strange name.
Leave it at that.
Today, I saw you in my dream.
And in that dream, you had become a white Tekkaman.
White?
Many years ago I met him...
Tekkaman Blade. You know him, don't you?
I was still a child and I can't remember exactly.
Nevertheless, he was beautiful.
Beautiful, plunging straight and endlessly into the bright red sky.
Then, I lost sight of Blade. I searched and searched.
Then, later, I was absorbed into a Radam Tree.
But I wasn't frightened.
You may think I am lying.
But in a way I was happy, just a bit.
You were... happy?
Why not? It was my dream.
To become a Tekkaman and protect the Earth with him...
that was my dream.
I was less shocked to learn that I was no longer human...
than when I heard that Blade had died.
One of those dreams faded away like any other dream.
But I wanted to continue with my thoughts of Blade.
It was for these memories that I joined the Space Knights.
Luckily, I was also selected to become a Tekkaman.
But sometimes...
I wonder if I deserve to become a Tekkaman.
Don't worry.
You are a fine Tekkaman, just the way you are now.
Yes.
The operation will commence in five days.
From the looks of it, the Earth will...
I know it. He's the one. I know he'll understand.
Please don't go!
Thank you.
Forgive me, please.
May I be excused?
And, oh, by the way... May...
May I visit you again?
Thank you very much.
By the way, that letter "D" in your name...
could it be "D" in "dream"?
Dream?
Yes.
Good night.
Chief!
Get back to your room.
Roger.
Finally, we have the results.
This is an image of the Radam fleet...
taken by our surveillance satellite.
What a shabby-looking fleet.
Chief, why is that?
They are using a nuclear shrinking reactor...
in conjunction with a micro Black Hole.
Their flagship, which appears to be a massive battleship...
is absorbing other ships and increasing weight of the micro Black Hole.
Decreasing the number of fleet units, but increasing the flagship weight...
they can have only one objective.
Their plan is to crash that flagship into the Earth.
- Into the Earth? - If that happens...
Our Army no longer has the firepower for a large-scale combat.
Therefore, we will attack, using the Space Knights only.
With the added weight, the Radam flagship will be unable to warp.
It will accelerate with a gravitational slingshot around the sun.
This will be our point of attack.
In approximately 94.38 hours from now...
the asteroid Tochitas will pass by this region.
We'll use Reactor Voltekker to fermiumize the asteroid...
send it colliding into the Radam flagship...
and alter its course.
Yumi, the fate of our civilization is in your-
- Hey! - Yes!
- Yumi, be responsible. - Roger.
Our operation will commence in three days.
Thoroughly familiarize yourselves with the battle plans.
- That'll be all. - Roger.
Say... Chief?
Please tell me your relationship with that individual.
Think only of matters concerning warfare.
But... this concerns me very much.
I cannot go into battle feeling this way!
Yumi, are you...?
I like him.
It's the first time that I have felt this way.
You're sure, huh?
Then I must give you an honest answer.
Me... I love him.
He, too, has accepted me in the same way.
That's all there is to it.
Since meeting him...
we have fought together for almost ten years.
We have been through a lot.
I became a Tekkaman, because...
I wanted to help him.
Let me tell you this much.
The current Space Knights is...
a dream he has cherished for so many years.
If you care for him, you must...
save the Earth from Radam, with all your talent-
All I need to do is eliminate Radam, right?
And if I become as strong as Chief is...
and eradicate Radam...
then, will he recognize me?
Yumi, that depends on-
- I'm leaving! - Come back! Yumi!
Ouch!
Yumi.
Hayato.
Forgive me. Did I hurt you?
- Hayato, I need a favor! - Yumi!
A favor?
Hayato and Yumi on the Alpha ship?
Initiate contact immediately.
We can't! They've cut off all lines of communication.
Fools! Now what?
Those two? Against Radam?
How reckless!
Launch all units of the Blue Earth.
We'll bring back the Alpha ship.
Forgive me, Hayato...
for asking you to accompany me.
Come to think of it, it's only natural.
He is so handsome, he has to have a girlfriend.
She just happens to be the Chief.
I just had a crush on him, all on my own.
Yumi, no need to worry.
I have a thing of my own, too.
Thank you, Hayato.
Is that so? That's how Yumi feels toward D-Boy?
Right.
Man! Of all the brash and reckless things to do at a time like this.
It's partly my fault.
Hmm? Aki.
Chief! The Radam fleet has stopped!
- What? - What're they up to?
You scared, Yumi?
No, because I'm the one behind this whole idea.
And what's more, if I get cold feet now...
I'll never prove that I'm as good as the Chief.
Say! Now is not the time for you two to be romantic.
- We don't need any grandstanding. - Everyone's listening.
Let's come home!
- Hold it. - What's up?
Enemy fleet is making a strange maneuver.
Headquarters to all units, Blue Earth.
Tactical change.
All units proceed immediately for observation only.
Report to me on enemy movement.
Roger.
As for Yumi and Hayato...
you two merge with Beta and Gamma and assist in observation.
Roger.
What's that?
What? That stream of energy that looks like a tunnel?
And, they have gathered all their ships.
Oh, no!
Now what, Chief?
Rather than absorbing all those ships into the micro Black Hole...
what if they blow them up all at once?
You mean with that huge rail gun?
Old man! Give me the details.
Gotcha!
Yumi! David!
- Get out of the ships? - What else?
Tekksetter!
Tekkaman Hiver!
Tekkaman Vesna!
Tekkaman Sommer!
What's that?
Chief?
Indications of self-destruction within enemy fleet.
- There's another one coming. - No end to it!
D-Boy.
"D" for "Dream"?
That's what she said?
It was Noal who named you "D-Boy," wasn't it?
"Dangerous Boy"... for being such a reckless fella.
It took ten years...
but we've made it this far.
For those young kids... And our dream project...
no one shall destroy it!
Tekksetter!
Yumi!
Oh, no!
Now what?
Voltekker?
Are they willing to sacrifice their comrades to kill us?
Damn it! Got to do something.
The Radam ship is leaving for the Earth.
Yumi!
Are we all doomed?
The Earth, and me, too.
It's all my fault.
No! I don't want that!
No!
- What's that? - What happened?
- Who is it? - The Chief?
Uh-uh.
That is... that is...
Tekkaman Blade!
It's no dream. That's Tekkaman Blade!
That's right.
Chief! Then it's true?
We will commence our operation against the Radam flagship.
Are you all ready to fight?
Roger!
Yumi, he will be leading the attack.
You fight alongside him.
Yes.
All the others, cover the two. Here they come.
Wow!
That's the strength of Blade.
On your toes and stay alert!
Just as I suspected. You are Tekkaman Blade, right?
- Aim at the rear of the flagship! - Roger.
Blade or D, watch me.
I will protect the Earth.
Reactor Voltekker!
Look out!
- Are we too late? - Yumi! D-Boy!
Yumi!
Yumi, the Reactor! Aim it at my Voltekker.
Yes!
Voltekker!
- He did it. - It's deviating from its orbit.
You did it, Yumi.
Those demerits on your record will be erased.
No, it won't be that easy.
In the meantime, I'd say she did well.
Thank you very much. But this is all-
Chief, as I thought, he was Blade.
Yes.
By the way, Chief...
I must tell you that I just cannot give him up.
In due time, Chief, I'll take him away from you.
Please be so advised.
Yumi!
She's risking her life against the Chief.
Okay. I can put up a good fight.
Good. She's given me the okay.
Got to make smart moves now. Hayato, let's go!
Yumi... I have faith in you.
Wait up!
Got to do something about that attitude.
I am bound by the chain called Tekkaman placed around the human race.
But they are about to severe that chain.
Then, as Tekkamen and as human beings...
they will create a new world order.
My vision is taking shape...
and will soon become a reality.
I will now free myself of that sad dream.
My dream has become a reality and it will continue on and on.
I am Yumi Francois, Tekkaman Hiver!
