The Neon Giant that Smiles in the Dark
Night falls on this major city.
However, the scientists at the International Science Organization, work late into the night
so that people all around the world can sleep soundly.
Goodnight.
Thank you.
Take care, Sir. Thank you.
Please turn on the news.
Okay...
How strange. The radio won't turn on no matter what station I tune it to.
How strange.
It can't be.
What is that strange sound?
It seems to be coming from somewhere, but...
What is that?!
Everyone, we're being called directly by ISO Headquarters in the nation of Ameris.
Okay! I'll show them just how cool we, the Science Ninja Team, are!
I'm going to go in dashingly, in Birdstyle.
No, we have to go in our ordinary clothing.
Why?!
It's not good if they know we're the Science Ninja Team.
Darn, it's tough being a ninja.
Ken, we're almost at the nation of Ameris.
Okay, let's look for a bay to hide the God Phoenix in.
Roger!
Sis, there's a huge amusement park here!
Of course, there are amusement parks everywhere.
Wow, what a giant statue.
I think that amusement park was only recently built.
It wasn't there when we came here last time.
It looks like fun. I want to go in there.
Jinpei, we're not here to play.
I know.
Do you really know that?
Look, it's up ahead.
Hey, hey! No children allowed.
I'm , well...
Just where do you think this is? Come on, get out.
I don't wanna! Let me go!
Help me, Dr. Nambu!
Hey, that boy is here to see me. Please let him go.
Oh, please excuse me.
See! Teaches you a lesson.
Okay, come on.
This is my first time calling you here,
so I thought I would treat you to great food and show you fun places.
That would be great.
But we don't have time for that.
To get straight to business, scientists have been being killed one after another recently.
You should all know about that already.
Unfortunately, we don't know who's behind it yet.
Doctor, is it in this city, where the headquarters are?
Yes, the only ones who could do such a bold thing are...
Galactor!
It has to be them.
You're right. The evil hand of Galactor has reached even here.
So I would like you to find the assassins from Galactor.
Okay, Doctor, we will find them no matter what.
All of the scientists have been fried to death by some strong electricity.
I'm counting on you Gatchaman.
These scientists build peace. They're very important.
I want you to protect them from harm somehow.
Yes, Sir!
The Science Ninja Team takes action immediately.
The five of them split up, and guard the scientists closely.
These are the plans for secret project number thirty.
Oh, I've been looking forward to seeing this. These are the plans for secret project number thirty.
Oh, I've been looking forward to seeing this.
Oh, I see.
I'm counting on you for this project.
Who is it?!
We are Galactor Ninja Blackbirds.
We are taking those plans!
Oh no!
Wait!
Damn, Bird Go!
We are the killer ninja of Galactor, the Blackbirds.
Who are you? Who dares to get in our way?
People call me the agent of Justice who works behind the scenes,
the Science Ninja Team's Gatchaman!
So you are Gatchaman.
I will show you how fearsome the Blackbirds are!
Watch!
Oh no!
Ouch...
Jinpei, skipping out on your job again?
Oh, it's just you, big brother. Why are you here?
I was attacked by Galactor's ninja killers and chased them,
but I lost track of them around here.
Oh, but this is just a place for children to have fun.
There's nothing suspicious here.
More importantly, listen that flutist is really good.
It's so mesmerizing.
I wish I could play that well.
Stop saying such carefree things. We have work to do. Come on!
I kinda feel like I should apologize to big brother,
since I'm the one going with you, Sis.
Stop saying such silly things and hang on.
It's your own fault if you fall off.
Huh? Sis, do you hear a strange sound?
Yes, now that you mention it, it sounds like a flute.
Oh! What is it?!
Sis, look! It looks like the statue they have in front of the amusement park.
You're right.
Watch out! Hang on Jinpei! Here we go!
Please leave it up to us, and run! Hurry!
Sis!

Jinpei, Jinpei!
Oh, good morning, Sis.
Oh, I can't believe you!
This is G-3. Ken, please go to the amusement park immediately!
It's urgent!
Jun, Jinpei, are you sure you weren't hallucinating?
I can't believe that this statue can move.
But it really looked like it. The size and appearance were both similar.
I see. It doesn't look like this is entirely a joke, Ken.
Yes, I was suspicious of this amusement park to begin with.
I guess we need to investigate this place thoroughly after all.
Okay, let's go in!
No, wait!
There's nothing we can do during the day. Let's wait for nightfall.
Hey, listen! That's pretty good, isn't it? Let's go listen to it!
Hey! Jinpei!
Jeez, that Jinpei.
He's not usually the kind of guy to get excited about a flute.
Oh yes, Ken. I remember now.
When we were attacked by the Neon Giant last night,
I heard a strange sound that sounded like a flute playing.
Strange sound?
Yes...
The Neon Giant and the sound of a flute?
Okay, then I'll investigate that flutist.
We'll take action after I'm done.
Change into Birdstyle just in case.
Roger!
Jinpei, this isn't the time to be playing.
Hey! What's going on here?!
Jinpei, watch out!
This is bad! Sis is in danger!
Damn it! They were after us after all.
Okay...
That's the great Jinpei's skill. Not too shabby, huh?
Sis!
Jinpei, are you all right?
Thank you, Jinpei.
Looks like this is Galactor's base after all.
I wonder if big brother is okay?
Damn...
I've been expecting you, Gatchaman.
Just who are you?!
The doubts you have started to have are correct.
This is indeed Galactor's assassination base.
Now you see who I am!
You're Berg Katse!
Here's a song of farewell to those who are about to be killed by the Neon Giant!
I see, you are using that Neon Giant to kill the scientists just as we thought.
So you finally catch on.
It's the Neon Giant, a creation of Galactor.
As Leader X has ordered, the last target is Dr. Nambu.
He should be in the headquarters of the International Science Organization tonight.
Oh no!
G-2! G-5! It's urgent!
The Neon Giant has gone to attack Dr. Nambu.
Please go help him immediately!
Roger!
You imbecile.
The Science Ninja Team doesn't have a chance against the Neon Giant. Give up!
Go! Finish Gatchaman!
Dr. Nambu, please be safe!
Ryu, we won't make it in time.
Let's ram straight into the Neon Giant.
Okay!
Bird Run!
Sis and I came to help you out, big brother.
Berg Katse, take this!
Bird Run!
I know now!
I know now, Berg Katse!
Stop it!
Jinpei, quickly! Play that flute! Stop it!
Jinpei, quickly! Play that flute!
But big bro, I don't know how to play it.
It doesn't matter. Just play it randomly!
You still don't get it, Jinpei?
If you play that flute, the Neon Giant will move!
Hurry!
That's it! That is the sound we heard back then!
Don't talk nonsense!
The panic you are in is proof enough!
They were using this device to turn the sound of the flute
into electric signals to control the Neon Giant in any manner they liked!
Jinpei, hurry!
Stop!
Come on, Jinpei!
Okay, I'll give it a shot then.
It's started acting weird.
What's going on?
Keep playing, Jinpei!
Stop it!
Yes!
Gatchaman! You have crushed our plans yet again!
But we will not give up!
Not until the world is in our hands!
Just you wait!
Oh! Stop, Berg Katse!
Ken, wait! Something is wrong!
It's dangerous here.
We need to escape!
He's getting away!
Watch out!
Get down! Watch out!
Get down!
G-2, is Dr. Nambu all right?
Of course, he'll be fine so long as we are here.
Okay, good job.
Thanks for the souvenir, Sis.
Hey, what did you buy?
Cosmetics that Ameris is famous for.
At my age, I should start wearing makeup soon. I am a young lady after all.
Like cosmetics will make a big difference.
Jinpei!
Sorry, how about a song in apology?
Oh! Stop it!
