The I nvisible Devil
Hey, Joe, even though their just kids, they're pretty good.
Wow, that's pretty good.
Someone help me!
Joe, did you see that?
He disappeared stupid.
I'm the Science Ninja Team's G-1 , Gatchaman!
Bird Go!
Goro, where did you go? Come out!
Stop it! Stop it! Let me go! I said, let me go! Someone help me!
Huh? What's this?
Wait!
It's the mirror pavilion.
Wait!
Damn! It sure escaped to one bothersome place.
There is no way I can find it in here. Everywhere I look, all I see is me.
This is a news flash.
Whether the disappearances that have occurred all over the nation
are simple kidnappings or are being caused by some sort of scientific phenomenon
is still completely unknown.
There are eight victims and they are all elementary and middle school children.
The government announced that until this case is solved, all elementary and middle school...
This time they are no match for the wits of Lord Katse.
Lord Katse, what are your plans for the children we have captive?
We shall use them as the eyes of Galactor.
Release the children from the invisible tank.
Switch on!
Look! This is the children's dreams made into a solid image.
I will use the brain waves from these children
and create a monster that can infiltrate anywhere.
We shall call this monster Alphagila.
Children have a sharp memory.
Alphagila, which is an aggregation of it, will go read the secret documents
of the Mantle Project hidden in the basement of the International Science Organization.
What's that?
It appears to have reached the file storage area in the basement.
Very well, run the memory unit at full capacity.
Save the secret files into the computer as Alphagila reads them.
Alphagila has started reading the secret files.
Very well, we finally have the secrets of the International Science Organization.
I just don't get how they're disappearing.
I heard that there are cases where people fall into the fourth dimension.
Yeah, right, that's unbelievable.
But did you really see them disappear?
Yeah, Jinpei, I saw it happen too.
I also saw a hazy, snail-like object in the mirror pavilion too.
We searched the mirror pavilion, but there was nothing there.
If we can't see the opponent, we won't be able to do anything.
Everyone, another strange incident has occurred.
What happened this time, Doctor?
I heard that a mysterious creature appeared at the International Science Organization.
So the opponent is visible this time?
It disappeared after it entered the room in the basement where the secret files are kept.
What? It disappeared again?
So was something stolen?
No, they said that the files are all fine.
Then everyone must have been dreaming or something.
No, two men were killed when they came in contact with the creature.
Also, important documents on the Mantle Project are kept in that room.
It must be Galactor.
Yup, I think so too.
That's horrible.
On top of having to search for the vanished children, now this.
Hey, I just thought about it, but did you hear a strange noise when the children disappeared?
Yeah, now that you mention it.
I heard it too!
What?
It's terrible! The dam... The dam...
This is the Geothermal Development Center, Observation Station 3,
we are under attack by someone. We cannot see our enemy!
SOS, SOS, this is the petrochemical complex,
we're under attack by an invisible enemy and we're being annihilated.
Damn it!
The dam, the Geothermal Development Center, the petrochemical complex...
They're all part of the Mantle Project.
They stole the secret documents.
But not one of the files were stolen.
Are you saying that they stole all those files, read them and returned them?
Maybe it's clairvoyance?
Clairvoyance? You mean where you close your eyes and see things that are far away?
That's stupid.
Is it okay for us to be just playing around here?
What is there to do? We can't see the enemy.
The only thing we can do is wait for Dr. Nambu to return from the ISO.
Doctor, the monster has appeared again in the file storage area.
What?!
Attention all guards, do not do anything to the monster.
Turn on the camera inside the file storage area.
This is...
Look, that monster is flipping through the files. It's reading the documents.
Well done, Alphagila. Read all of the files and send your memory here.
It's doing it! It's doing it!
I see!
This is Nambu. Come in, Gatchaman.
This is Gatchaman. Go ahead, Dr. Nambu.
Assemble at the International Science Organization immediately.
Gather the team and launch the God Phoenix!
Roger!
Ken?
It sounds like the Doctor discovered something.
Science Ninja Team, move out!
After receiving the orders from Dr. Nambu, the God Phoenix left the crescent coral reef.
But Galactor, who had already stolen the secrets of the Mantle Project,
has already started its next attack.
Crush them! Crush every part of the Mantle Project one by one!
Crush them with the hand of Galactor!
SOS, SOS, this is the Desert Development Center,
we're being annihilated by an unknown enemy!
The enemy is completely invisible!

It's tire marks.
Correct. Judging the size and weight from the indentations, they were left by a tank.
An invisible tank? Galactor sure thought hard about this one.
This is...
It's the monster that appeared in the file storage area.
As you can see, it's reading the secret documents.
What is this thing?
I don't know, but I'm sure this is acting as the brain and eyes of Galactor.
So, you're saying that Galactor is reading the documents sent by this thing from far away?
And then having the invisible tanks attack. I see!
Then all of the Mantle Project is going to be destroyed.
We have to do something.
What can we do? The enemy is completely invisible.
Actually, there is a way to see it.
Listen, we are able to see things due to the refraction of light.
If an object is made to have refract light in the same way as air,
that object will become invisible like air.
Although it is imperfect, Galactor has managed to create such an object.
We know it is imperfect because Ken has seen it once.
I see now. At that mirror pavilion...
Right.
I see...
What do you mean, I see? Do you understand this?
In short, it's ...
Damn you're slow, Ryu!
I'm assuming the invisible tank is able to make itself disappear if light hits it from one direction,
but if it receives light from all directions as it did in the mirror pavilion, it will become visible.
Just like he said. Do you understand now?
That's tiresome. Just do what you guys want.
Then what should we do, Doctor?
This is a dangerous bet, but...
We are going to have someone in here become a decoy.
I noticed this after I analyzed the data on the missing children.
Galactor has been only abducting children with relatively high brain wave activity.
We don't know why or what they're using them for, but it probably has some connection
with the strange monster that appeared in the file storage area.
I see. So we're going to get caught by them on purpose and search their secret base.
Right, we're going to increase the brain wave acivity of one of you
to three times the normal amount as a lure for Galactor.
In the end, Jun was chosen to be the decoy.
It was a harsh experiment.
Strong electro magnetic waves were directed at Jun all at once
to raise her brain wave activity to three times the normal amount.
The Science Ninja Team set up a trap using Jun as a decoy at the amusement park
where the unexplained disappearance of children had occurred many times.
Hey, a girl with brain wave activity that is way more then compatible has appeared.
Abduct her immediately.
Damn it, as we expected, they took the bait.
The direction detector has started to move.
As I thought, it's moving towards the mirror pavilion.
Don't let it get away!
Bird Cross!
Bird Go!
So the girl that you say has wonderful brain wave activity is her?
Yes, Sir. There were four males that tried to enter the pavilion chasing after that girl,
but we dropped them down the trap door at the entrance.
Very well, be sure to clean up the dead bodies.
We'll be in a lot of trouble if the Science Ninja Team finds out about us.
Alphagila's weakness is that it doesn't last for a long period of time.
But I'll create it again and again until I completely destroy the Mantle Project.
Big brother, we ended up in one weird place.
Damn you Galactor for making all these odd things.
Ken!
That's funny, there's no one here.
There should be four dead bodies.
It seems like the entrance.
Okay!
Let's go!
Here you go!
Ninja Technique: Cross Fighter!
Hurry!
Something is wrong. Alphagila isn't responding.
What?
Dr. Nambu, it appeared just as we expected.
It responded. Alphagila has commenced reading the files.
Now I know everything.
Look, the International Science Organization built a giant uranium storage unit in the desert.
Send the invisible tanks out immediately and retrieve the uranium.
We won't let you do that, Berg Katse!
What?
Gatchaman! Where did you come from?!
Berg Katse, this is going to be the end of your evil plan!
Unfortunately for you, Gatchaman,
I have no need for this secret base or the children I abducted any more.
I know where the last of your precious Mantle Project is located.
What?
Farewell, Gatchaman!
Ken!
Big brother, they're disappearing! The snail tanks are disappearing!
Damn it!
Anyway, let's save Jun and the children.
Roger!
This is Gatchaman. Come in, Dr. Nambu.
This is Nambu. What happened Ken?
We've failed, Doctor.
We have succeeded in rescuing Jun and the children, but the invisible tanks...
Don't lose hope, Gatchaman.
Come back right away. We still have one more card we can play.
Lord Katse, it's over there.
Very well, all troops attack at once!
Oh, this is...
Welcome, members of Galactor.
What?
I've been waiting for you.
What? So that file was...
Indeed, it was a trap I set.
I created this castle and waited here just for you.
Damn you! I won't let you forget this!
Stop struggling and give up, Berg Katse.
Gatchaman!
The invisible tanks aren't really anything special once they are visible, huh?
You won't escape this time, Berg Katse.
You think you've won, Science Ninja Team?
We won't lose! Galactor will never lose!
Until we meet again, Gatchaman.
After all they'd gone through to track down Berg Katse,
he once again narrowly escaped them, disappearing into the flames.
A strong sense of defeat was left in Ken's heart.
Don't lose heart, Gatchaman. Another battle awaits you tomorrow.

Galactor makes the magma underneaeth the Earth's crust erupt
and causes volcanic eruptions one after another.
Hearing this, Gatchaman and the others set off to solve the mystery,
all except for Jinpei and Ryu, who are on vacation.
Meanwhile, Jinpei and Ryu see grounds for suspicion in Gallack X,
the new champion of kick boxing.
Who is demon man Gallack X? What is Galactor plotting?
Next time on Science Ninja Team Gatchaman: “Gallack X, the Demon Man” Look forward to it!
