HEY HO! THE HAPPY PENSIONED LIFE!
I want to thank you for volunteering.
For the Raalgon Empire, we would gladly give our lives!
I believe you are familiar already with this UPSF officer.
Admiral Hanner.
Yes. His brave and daring battles on the galactic frontier...
...have earned him respect even among we in the Empire.
I thought he'd retired.
He has.
As you can see, he's living on a pension.
Good lord...
To think a former admiral would be reduced to this!
The UPSF is desperately trying to build up its troop strength...
...in preparation for the coming war with us.
But the real question is how high will their morale be?
The twilight of a soldier's life is a sad thing to see.
I want you to pass this fact on to the citizens of the United Planets.
Is that clear?
Checkmate! I get your hovertank!
Whoa! Hold on a sec! There!
UPSF Benefits Administration Pension Department
What's the problem, ya darned idiot?! I play to win!
I'M ready to play, so why should I hold off on ya?
Wow, I really admire your attitude!
Bet you were popular with the ladies when you were young, Chief.
Oh? How could you tell?
'Cuz you're a sharp guy, and from sharp minds comes sharp thinking!
You always know exactly what to say.
That's not something an ordinary person could fake.
You really think so?
So, please, can you lay off on me?
Oh, sure. Hm?
Now what?
Former admiral Robert J. Hanner. Current address: unknown.
Pension cannot be delivered. Confirm new address at once.
A former admiral? Wow...
Oh, it can wait till after lunch.
Hey, Tylor! Whaddaya wanna do?
Oh, right. Right, right.
Let's see... Former admiral Hanner, huh?
There you go. Say "ah."
Well, Father? It isn't too hot, is it?
I'm sorry to be such a burden.
Now, Father, you promised you wouldn't say that.
If I'd just died in space...
...you two could be living on my survivors pension.
Please don't worry about that.
We're just glad you're with us.
Yumi, Emi, I'm really sorry.
The change of address was reported, but it's all tied up in red tape.
When I get back to HQ, I'll make sure the pension gets delivered.
Yuriko...
You're always looking out for us.
I don't mind. We've known each other since we were little.
Besides, your father's done so much for the Force.
How can the United Planets government treat him like this?
Welcome to our home.
May we ask...
...who you are?
"Universal Peace Revolutionary Front?" What's that?
Look out!
Lieutenant Yamamoto. I'm sorry to interrupt your vacation.
Please report in at once!
END
ALL
WAR
Bring Peace and Love to the Universe! My friends! We, your comrades in the glorious Universal Peace...
...Revolutionary Front, seek universal love!
Comrades of the United Planets! Stop this senseless war!
You in there! Release the hostages and come out!
What are your demands?!
We have only one demand: abandon all war!
Look! They once called him a space hero!
But once he got too old, his army just tossed him aside!
That's terrible!
Stop recruiting the general public into the military...
...and dissolve the United Planets Space Force at once!
Otherwise we cannot guarantee the safety of the hostages.
That's!
Lieutenant Yamamoto! Sorry we interrupted your vacation, sir.
That's all right. How many hostages?
Four, sir. Admiral Robert J. Hanner, his two daughters...
...and Lt. Cmdr. Yuriko Star, a family friend.
And what are their demands?
Well... Dissolution of the UPSF and renouncement of war.
Why don't you rush them?
Because they apparently have an ultra high-power bomb.
We have to be careful with them.
I see...
Where is it? There must be a blind spot.
Maybe that thing on the roof?
Lieutenant, message from HQ, sir.
Right, put it on the main monitor.
Who's in charge here?
Admiral Mifune, sir!
Do you hear me, friends? The most important thing in life is love!
Love is everything!
Don't be fooled by mere appearances!
The universal truth is realizing...
Hey, what's going on? ...that love exists in your hearts!
Terrorists have taken hostages... ...that love exists in your hearts!
Terrorists have taken hostages... Love! Is anything more beautiful?
...in a retired admiral's home. Is it not our duty...
...to defend it at all costs?
A retired admiral?
Is that clear? Handle this sensibly and rescue those hostages quickly!
Yes, sir. Understood.
This is a critical phase in our preparations to fight the Raalgon.
You're too soft, Mifune!
Fuji!
Do we renounce war to free the hostages?
Don't you see that the moment we do...
...the United Planets would become a Raalgon colony?!
Quiet! Don't you care about the hostages?!
It's better to save the hostages and sacrifice our citizens?!
I never said that!
Is that clear, Lieutenant Yamamoto?! Take care of this!
Hey, you! Recruit! Where do you think you're going?!
Oh, don't worry.
I'm just going in to give Admiral Hanner his pension.
Do you have any idea what's going on here?!
Oh, sure. You must have a really tough job, Lieutenant.
Grabbing hostages isn't very fair, is it?
Sir, the data on the Hanner home. Our Space Force is much better!
Right. Our Space Force is much better!
Right.
Sure, we deliver the pension checks late sometimes...
...but we always get them there.
Okay, run a simulation using this.
In any case, I, Justy Ueki Tylor, am off to do my duty!
What? Hey, wait a second!
Pension? Is that some sort of code word?
He must be a secret agent sent by Admiral Mifune.
I'm just going in to deliver the pension!
Well, now, Mr. Tylor... Let's see how you handle this.
What's keeping them?! How long are they gonna make us wait?!
Even if you wait forever, they're not going to dissolve the military!
What?!
First of all, we can't do that just as we're gearing up for a war!
You guys are Raalgon agents, aren't you?
Even if you aren't agents...
...you must be real second-rate soldiers to pull a stunt like this!
Why, you! Who are you calling second-rate?!
Calm down!
How am I supposed to stay quiet after hearing that?!
Go! Both of you!
But, what about...
...our father?
He may be old, but he's still a soldier! Now hurry!
Yuriko!
Get going!
Hold it!
Is this clear? Nobody move another step!
Hi! I'm Recruit Justy Ueki Tylor of the United Planets Space Force!
The Space Force!
You've come to help us?!
That's right. Recruit Tylor of the UPSF is at your service.
I'm here to deliver your delayed pension check.
Pension?
I can see you're sorta busy...
...but you have to understand that this is my job. Sorry about this.
Excuse me, sir.
Don't be sad, Admiral, sir.
I'll be glad to come and play go or shogi with you anytime.
Well, then, sir, if you'll excuse me.
Hold it.
But, sir. I have other things on my schedule...
Oh?
Oh-ho!
Your schedule or your life? Choose now!
Well, no schedule's written in stone.
Hi there. My name's Tylor.
Looks like you've gotten yourself caught in a real jam.
But, now that I'm here, everything's okay!
Just relax and leave everything to me!
Hold it! Who do you think...
Excuse me, shouldn't I be handcuffed?
If you don't have any, I can share hers.
Oh, you do? Don't feel you have to. It'd be wasteful.
Have to watch limited resources, right?
What's WITH this guy?
He's had enough time to contact us.
Could he have failed?
Lieutenant, there's video on the monitor outside again!
Right! Put it on!
Since they've allowed us to have another hostage...
...I can only conclude the Space Force has more men than it needs!
Oh, not at all!
They've really been pouring on the recruitment ads lately.
What?
I don't see why everyone doesn't join the military.
I mean, there's no easier job!
Uh, anyway, we'll wait one more hour!
If we don't hear a response by then, we'll kill the hostages!
Got that?!
Lieutenant Yamamoto! Who the hell was that idiot just now?!
Uh... Wasn't he a special agent you sent in, sir?
You fool! I didn't send that moron!
What?! Then, he must really be...
I'm just going in to deliver the pension!
PENSION I'm just going in to deliver the pension!
PENSION
THAT IDIOT!!!
What did you really come here for?
Huh? I told you. To deliver Admiral Hanner's pension.
Why, that's...
...so kind of you!
Wow, it really makes me happy to hear that.
Now, hold on here!
But to have met a woman like you in a place like this...
...makes me even happier! What's your name?
Yuriko. Yuriko Star. I'm a lieutenant commander.
Shut up!
I thought I told you! No talking!
Pick on somebody your own size!
A terrorist dedicated to his revolution...
...shouldn't act like a salaryman.
Yes, you're right.
Yumi, sorry about this...
Here, you dropped this.
Oh, thank you kindly.
Why did you give him the gun back?!
Huh? But you're supposed to return things when people drop them.
Not in this situation!
Be quiet. How many times are you going to resist us?
You're only going to get yourselves killed.
Wow! He's gorgeous!
That is one handsome guy!
The only place we can get in is through this vent.
Organize a raiding party. We'll use gas shells.
You're being too easy on them, Lieutenant Yamamoto!
Do you want the United Planets to become a Raalgon colony?!
We can't let the civilians get caught in the middle of this!
Who cares? One shot from a missile will make 'em surrender!
Do you want to kill the hostages with them?
Do you want to sacrifice all mankind for five people?!
But...
It doesn't matter! Attack! Show 'em we mean business!
No! No!
Should I or shouldn't I?!
You're wonderful!
So elegant!
A warrior must not be concerned with his looks.
That is the essence of manliness.
Oh, no! Looks are part of being a man!
And, with yours, I'm surprised you aren't a model or a movie star.
Come on! Looking at you, I'd bet you spend an hour...
...in front of the mirror every morning.
Certainly not.
Really? I wouldn't think you'd look so good otherwise.
What use would I have for a mirror?
Don't let him trick you!
Now, now. Just hold on there.
If you have to be killed, wouldn't you prefer the handsome one to do it?
That's right!
I want this one to kill me, too!
Oh, dear...
We can forgive anything a beautiful person might do.
If we could be strangled by your long, graceful fingers...
...we would die happily.
All right, fine!
If you wanna die so badly, I'll oblige you!
Be quiet!
If you're naughty, you won't get fed!
Huh?! "Get fed?"
Who do you think you are?! A man's looks are everything!
Do you think you have any looks?!
Ugly men don't exist in this world!
Even if they do, they're not real men! They're less than human!
Girls, please! You shouldn't be so hard on him.
At least explain how he's bow-legged and short...
...and all the other details that make him so ugly.
But...
A man's face is most important.
Right?
The United Planets must not become a Raalgon colony!
This is for the best...
I knew it'd look good!
I see...
The more you polish yourself, the more manly you look!
I now truly appreciate the effect of cosmetics.
Don't be fooled! A man isn't his face!
A man's his heart! His guts! His soul! His passions!
Enemy missile lock detected. Take shelter at once!
What?! But we're still in here!
Target locked in. Three minutes to launch.
Well, looks like they've abandoned you.
Looks like they have.
Listen, if you don't do something, we'll all be killed!
Or do you want to die here?!
She's right. Everyone has a right to live, no matter how they look.
You little! Are you still talking nonsense?!
A man's his heart! His guts! His soul! His passions!
Right?
It's too late to try flattering me!
Oh, no! I mean it!
Come on, a man without feelings...
...couldn't have made that speech before.
A person must have a pure heart above all else.
A pure heart. That's human love.
But nobody really understands your pure heart.
They're too distracted by your looks.
They don't see the real you hidden deep behind that horrible face.
You're right! Nobody understands me!
We don't have time for this!
If we don't get out of here, we're all...
No, that won't be necessary.
Are you crying?
He really does have a pure heart.
I'm not sad!
I'm moved to tears! Man's tears!
Today, for the first time in my life...
...I've met someone who truly understands me!
So, you're going to put down the bomb and let us go?
No. I'll never be moved like this again!
I'll never receive such understanding from another man!
So, please! Let's all die together!
Please! Die with me!
We, the abandoned, will all die by this bomb!
Well, if you say so, but...
I think I blew it, Yuriko.
Don't talk to me like we're friends!
Everything went from bad to worse when you showed up!
"Just relax and leave everything to me," huh?!
There's still... There's still so much I want to do!
Why do I have to die like this?!
Give me back my youth!
Well, I can't give you back your youth...
...but I can let you hit me. Here, use this.
Are you sure? I can hit you?
Go on. I don't mind.
I'll hit you really hard.
I don't mind.
Right! Fifteen seconds to launch!
Here it comes!
Damn it all! Can't I even be allowed to die?!
You shouldn't want to!
If you live, good things may happen to you.
You could even become a movie star one day.
Think how boring the world would be if everyone was handsome.
Maybe women'll even like your kind of face someday.
Better to have that than a pretty face and an ugly heart, right?
Oh, my...
Somebody, give me a status report!
So, their last message simply said "Justy Ueki Tylor"?
Yes, sir.
Tylor, eh? It might be worthwhile to learn more about him.
What just happened?
Lieutenant, sir! Are you okay?
We're all set up here!
Good work, sir!
Didn't something just fall on me?
Don't worry! The hostages are all fine!
Tylor. You said you were Recruit Justy Ueki Tylor, right?
Yeah.
I won't ask for my youth back, but I can still hit you, can't I?
Huh? What for?
Who is that man?
