Why did you refuse?
Huh?
The offer to erase the information that's going around online.
Aren't you scared?
Having all sorts of things said about you?
They're all people I dunno.
If I don't like it, I just hafta do this!
More importantly,
we had hella fun today, Utsutsu!
What?
Let's play hide-'n'-seek together again!
X.
Yes, how may I be of service?
Are there any among the current Hundred who appear to have lost initiative?
Among current members, none exhibit a significant drop in initiative.
There are sporadic comments along the lines of being "made" to do Hundred activities,
but they appear to be joking in tone.
And what are their numbers?
Numbers 41, 63, and 80.
Please remove them.
I do not want any cause for concern to remain in our work to come.
Understood.
Numbers 41, 63, and 80 have been removed.
Summon the remaining Hundred.
Tonight, we will eliminate Katze.
Understood.
I'm bluetsutsu...
Oh, Utsutsu.
I have a favor to ask.
What?
Can you go borrow a pair of scissors from Hajime?
Oh, welcome back, Rui-Rui!
Were you out working away on your GALAXter project again?
I really think you should stop piddling around with little things and just go out and take over the world.
After all, I went through the trouble of giving you power.
Right? So much trouble.
What's with that knife?
Oh, that's the first time you're asking any questions.
Until now, you were too scared to ask me what I do when I go off.
That makes me happy!
What made you change your mind?
Fly amaze it crore vavry rough
Spin up and know feel in brender lonely
Estrad and me under graven me on the starnet
Write the mean destroy baby rat stay up and no fear
Into end aloud these sir prize on me
Unders heavenly on the clone it
The world your word is
We are not alone
Don't let your fear hold you back
We're all like birds
Have to fight and go the distance
Listen to this sound
You go there
I'll fly away
The world your word is
We are not alone
We all are sometimes strong, sometimes weak
We're like birds
Have to fight and go the distance
My emotions are free now
They call me from far away, telling me to go
Crowds are calling my name
D-I-Y means Do-It-Yourself!
Come in.
Utsutsu!
Scissors, please.
Oh, sure!
Which one do ya want?
Maybe these would be good for ya.
I'm here for OD, so...
D might like these?
Those, then.
Here ya go!
What's up?
O-Origami.
C-Can we—
Oh!
Huh?
That's a frog, right?
You were tryin' ta make a frog!
Yeah.
It's more fun ta have a lot of frogs!
O-Okay.
But frogs're green, right?
There are... red ones too.
Oh, let's make them in diff'rent colors, then.
You're really good with them.
The only reason this motley crew hangs together by a thread is you, I have to say.
I'm a poor leader.
I made another memory again.
Even though it only brings pain.
Yahoo!
You even brought them here?
Do you finally intend to get rid of me?
Sparkle!
That's right.
I must defeat you, after all!
What is that?!
Could that be...
It was really tall.
Long, tangled hair and a diamond-shaped tail.
Who is it?
What?!
Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go, Go Bird!
Where'd it go?
What's going on?
Are they trying to defeat that alien?
Hey, you!
Riding a monster like that...
For all your quibbles,
you're relying on that power, aren't ya?
Who are you?!
Oops, you got me.
In the end, you're just like me!
You!
You love violence!
You put on a cool show with the whole revolution talk, but in the end, you just wanted power!
Right, Rui-Rui?
Rui-Rui!
Stop!
It disguised itself as a passerby.
No doubt about it. It's the one!
Wh-Where are you?!
See?
It hurts if you get hit.
Oh, bingo!
C'mon, Rui-Rui. Rui-Rui.
How's it feel?
How's it feel?!
Help...
Here, here, here.
Crap. If we don't do something...
Leader, do you copy?
Requesting permission to attack. Now!
Attack?
What's going on, Sugane?!
The one Jou fought—
that alien is causing mayhem right in front of me!
That alien must be the bad Gatchaman, right?
It transformed?
Let's go, Pai-Pai!
Pai-Pai, Pai-Pai, Pai-Pai. Pai-Pai, come on!
Shut up!
Stay quiet, Newbie!
Wait for Lord JJ's... Lord JJ's orders!
But people are dying!
Lives will be lost again!
I can't just stand by and watch!
Jou!
It's really the one?
Yes!
Leave it to me.
You watch for an opening and get them out of there.
But...
I told you, didn't I?
That the next time I see it, I'll definitely beat the crap out of it.
Jou...
Amnesia Effect!
Go, Bird!
You're not getting away this time.
Here comes a Gatcha!
Don't go, Rui-Rui!
Sugane, hurry!
Don't go!
Roger!
Come back!
Quiet, monster!
Flame Feather!
Flame Feather...
Hey.
Hey!
Hey, are you guys still doing the same old thing?
Like, "Gotta save Earth" and "I've gotta do it"?
Do you really think you can?
Hey, are you stupid?
See, you're stupid!
Damn bastard!
Are you okay?!
You're...
Tell me... What is that thing?
Lord JJ!
It has finally transformed!
It intends to destroy this planet! Destroy Earth!
Lord JJ, why did not you give us a prophecy?
Do you mean to abandon this planet?!
Lord JJ, please respond!
Lord JJ!
That's...
Jou.
Yep.
Jou's fightin'.
It'll be a-okay!
Of course it won't be okay!
Don't be ridiculous!
Pai-Pai, if yer this scared, that bad Gatchaman must be hella strong.
That's right.
Even all of us together can't take it down.
So we're gonna give up?
I don't know!
I don't know what to do anymore...
Yeah.
It's scary to hafta decide, ain't it?
But we gotta decide on somethin'.
If we make a decision, things might change.
Gatcha!
One day, it suddenly appeared and drew a NOTE out of me.
Since then, I've been able to summon the CROWDS.
"CROWDS"?
Are they the things that were near you?
Yeah.
They are the human consciousness made real; a tremendous power.
A tremendous power?
The power to make my ideals into reality.
I provided GALAXters I'd personally selected with an app that summons the CROWDS.
With them, we've solved many incidents and accidents.
I saw them too.
In the tunnel when it collapsed.
It was thanks to CROWDS that lives were saved.
But deep inside, I was always conflicted.
Because it's not my own power.
It's a power that the alien, Berg-Katze, had given me.
I was aware of its evil nature.
But I thought I could take advantage of it.
No, I had to take advantage of it,
in order to update the world...
Hey, hang in there!
I'm okay.
How pathetic.
I told you we don't need heroes, and just look at me now.
I'm no different.
I suspected you,
even though I'd seen you save so many lives with my own eyes...
It's pathetic.
But it's okay.
Please believe in us Gatchaman.
Jou will defeat it, without a doubt.
I want to believe.
But you still don't know
its true terror...
Bastard!
Burning Hammer!
Burning Hold!
Damn it.
Jou!
Jou's...
Don't cry.
You're a man, aren't you?
Jou!
Utsutsu!
You can't.
Why not?
Please, Hajime.
Listen to me.
But it'll get both Jou an' Sugane if we don't do somethin'.
I'll go.
I want to help.
I can't abandon them.
Utsutsu, you've become a wonderful person.
All right.
I'll go.
You all stay here.
Wait, OD!
OD, do not spread your wings.
That is an order.
Let's go.
All right!
That's more like it!
Pai-Pai, you're too foolish.
Amnesia Effect!
Go, Bird!
Awesome!
Get in!
Roger!
I'm going to gun it.
You couldn't transform, could you?
Coward!
Quit sneaking around and show yourself!
Okay!
Oh my! You're so manly!
Where are you?!
Here.
Maybe I'm at my limit.
I can't possibly win.
It's impossible.
I acted tough until now,
but in the end, I'm just a civil servant.
I wanted to make it big,
but I knew my limitations from the beginning, really.
Oh, well.
I guess I'll just keep trailing on in life.
Not like there's a whole lot I can do, anyway.
I should just give up on my dreams
and resign myself to being a nobody.
Stop.
"World peace"?
I'm so naive!
Stop!
I want to die, really.
Not that I can tell anyone.
I'll defeat it!
Defeat it...
Defeat?
How can I defeat it...
I... I'm sorry!
Pai-Pai...
Gatchaman, finished!
Oh?
Just a human!
How cute when asleep!
Let's get right to it...
You perv!
What?
Hang in there...
Utsutsu...
Hang in there...
Um, hello!
I'm Hajime!
A Gatchaman!
Can you tell us yer name?
I'm Katze!
Berg-Katze!
Katze, is it? Nice to meet ya!
Nice to meet ya!
Um... why won'tcha show yerself to us?
Huh? What? Ya can't see me?
I'm right here, though!
Oh, I get it now.
Um, I have a question.
What is it?
What'd ya mean by "go up in a big red blaze"?
And... oh, two questions.
What'd ya mean by "it's all you guys' fault"?
What do ya think I meant?
Um, are ya saying somethin' will happen because of us human beings?
Well, it's already happenin'.
Ain't that true.
Yer not bad.
You actually thought about what I said.
It's been botherin' me this whole time.
Because if that's true, it means things're hella bad.
That's right.
Yer good, for a Gatchaman, that is.
Yeah, things're hella bad on Earth!
Here's a quiz!
When does a planet have the prettiest shine?
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick...
I know! Around 5 AM in the mornin'!
Buzz... Wrong!
The answer: when it's destroyed.
Oh, that a fact?
Hajime.
What is it?
I like you, so I'll give you a riddle.
Please do!
What's the sweetest, tastiest thing every human being loves?
Think about it, okay?
Oh, one last question!
What is it?
Katze, are you havin' fun right now?
It's hella yummy!
Are ya full?
Hmm, not even close.
Later!
Hang in there...
Utsutsu.
I don't really know why, but I'm hella sad.
Rui...
Rui.
Where am I?
After you lost consciousness, that man hid you here.
I see.
Where is the Gatchaman?
He seems to be gravely injured.
I see...
But I'm glad he's alive.
X, what should I do now?
I've lost the Hundred.
I now have no other means of opposing it.
You must first heal and protect yourself,
in order to make your ideal world become a reality.
My ideal world...
I see.
So he got the CROWDS from Katze.
That might be why JJ said "broken child."
I see.
I don't think that Rui guy is suspicious.
Oh, so that's yer feel of him, now that you've actually talked to him.
Yeah, that's how I do things.
It is.
Actually, why are you eating so much sweet stuff?
I'm thinkin'.
About what?
A riddle!
Well, aren't you happy-go-lucky?
It's pretty.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's pretty.
I'll hold you
Still unaware of where my feelings are headed
It's shinin' bright.
I try to enjoy myself, but it always gets me down
Makes me want to disappear
I can't tell the difference between fact and fiction
This world I live in is just a puppet
A half-empty notebook
Full of emotions that cannot be put into words
Those pure feelings
Keep screaming out my name
No man is an island
We all wish to be connected
It is that desire that keeps you safe
And gives you strength
Even if the changing times make walking hand-in-hand
A thing of the past
We fully understand this chaos
And that dreams have the power to change destiny
