Science Ninja Team Gatchaman
Who is it? Who is it? Who is it?
The shadow dancing high in the sky
It's the white wings of Gatchaman
You stake your life and fly out
That's the Science Ninja Technique Firebird
Fly! Fly, fly, Gatchaman
Go! Go, go, Gatchaman
There is only one Earth
Oh, Gatchaman, Gatchaman
You stake your life and fly out
That's the Science Ninja Technique Firebird
Fly! Fly, fly, Gatchaman
Go! Go, go, Gatchaman
There is only one Earth
Oh, Gatchaman, Gatchaman
The Stolen Gatchaman I nformation
The gigantic city that's the pride of Ameris: Amegapolis.
The headquarters of the International Science Organization
is located roughly in the center of this city.
Underneath this facility is a computer room where various important data is stored.
Hello, Dr. Borombo.
Working hard as usual, I see. How is everything...
Doctor? Dr. Borombo!
Oh yeah, this rain sure is annoying. See you later.
Rain?
He's going for the computer room.
That computer room is where confidential information called the “Secret Circuit” is stored.
You could call that room the heart of the International Science Organization.
It is also where complete information is stored on the organizational structure and secrets
of one of our covert operations: you, the Science Ninja Team.
So basically, Dr. Borombo stealing our secret information could mean...
You guessed it. He could be a spy.
No one is allowed to enter that computer room without permission.
I can't believe it.
Dr. Borombo is just as high up the totem pole as you, isn't he?
Anyway, we can't let any of the ISO's data be leaked to outsiders.
Therefore, I want all of you to trail Dr. Borombo's every movement,
and keep the confidential information from being leaked.
No big deal! We just have to scare Dr. Borombo a little.
That will end this whole thing.
No!
Things are more serious than you think.
We have a very stringent security system
and have adopted comprehensive measures,
and yet an incident like this has happened.
It inevitably forces us to re-think our future security system.
That's right. There's even an infrared device in the room,
but Dr. Borombo still managed to bring in equipment like that.
You're right. You can easily trick the infrared device
just by using some special plastic for the equipment.
Man, I guess the ISO isn't all it's cracked up to be, huh?
So here's your mission.
First, retrieve the data before it leaks out, and at the same time,
investigate what led Dr. Borombo to conduct espionage.
Understood. We'll take action right away.
After careful consideration,
I've come to the conclusion that Dr. Borombo is...
Yeah, whatever! Hurry up and finish the sentence!
Isn't it possible he's Berg Katse in disguise? You know, he's really into disguises.
I don't think that's it.
Remember he was acting so nervous that even Dr. Nambu figured out something was wrong.
You know Katse is a better actor than that.
But there's no doubt Galactor is involved in this somehow.
I agree. Supposedly Dr. Borombo comes here once a day,
so we'll find out soon enough.
Here he comes.
All right, it's showtime. Wait for me to contact you.
Okay, just be careful, Ken.
Welcome, Doctor.
Give me the usual, make it black.
Certainly. Can I take your bag?
Oh, no, I've got it.
Did you get it out of there without any problems?
What?! Who are you?
I work for them.
But the appointment is for tomorrow.
Appointment? You see, Lord Katse ordered me to keep an eye on you,
and make sure you don't turn your back on us.
You can't do this do me!
What if someone sees us like this? I'd be... Let's just go to my house.
Hey, Doctor, what about your coffee? Your coffee!
Looks like we guessed it right.
Your family members won't be suspicious?
No, I live alone. There's nothing to worry about.
I see. So you're still not married at your age, huh, Doc?
What a beautiful girl...
Who's this?
Say, you're going to keep your promise, right?
Don't worry.
What about my daughter? Will you guarantee her life?
Daughter?
Yeah, we'll give her back before you know it. Just trust me.
How could I trust you?
I'll give this to you in exchange for my daughter. That was the deal.
You better keep your word.
I see... That's how it is, huh?
Actually, Doctor...
Don't you move.
You're my hostage!
That's not going to work, Doctor.
The lives of minions like me don't mean anything to them.
I don't care. If anything happens to my daughter, I'll kill you.
Then I'll feel like I got at least a little revenge on them.
Doctor, please listen to me. I'm a member of the Science...
Get back! Just sit down over here.
Look, don't move!
You punk.
You should be more careful when you're dealing with scientists.
I wouldn't make a move if I were you. I don't like getting rid of burnt bodies.
Dr. Borombo, how did the plan go?
Listen very carefully. There's been a change in plans.
Get in your car right now and head south.
You'll hear from me for further instructions.
Don't forget to bring the data.
Doctor! Please wait! Doctor! Doctor! Please listen to me, Doctor!
This is Gatchaman, over.
What's going on, Ken?
Dr. Borombo left the house. I want you to follow him.
Okay. Let's go!
Roger!
Hey! You have to pay!
Put it on Dr. Nambu's tab!
Wait! What are your names? Hey, your names!
Papa! Help me! Papa!
If you want your daughter back, you must steal confidential information from the ISO.
Rumi, hang in there just a little longer, just a little longer!
I guess Dr. Borombo thought this would be enough to trap me, huh?
This has to be Dr. Borombo's car, but it's odd.
It's hard to believe he's meeting up with Galactor in the middle of the city like this.
But where did he go?
And after all the driving we did,
we're right back by the International Science Organization.
Ryu, come over here! Check out this sweet looking car!
It says maximum speed 350km per hour! Whoa! This is so cool!
Stop, Jinpei! This is no time for that!
This is awesome! I wish my G-4 was as cool as this!
This is second, third, fourth, and this is reverse, eh?
What's this?
Jinpei!
Come down! This place is very fishy.
All right, let's go! If we don't hurry, Galactor will get the data!
I'm glad you made it, Dr. Borombo. I've been expecting you.
Now, hand over the confidential data.
Where's my daughter?
Don't worry!
You'll get her back as soon as we confirm the data is authentic.
No, I'll only give it in exchange for my daughter!
Give me that!
We should be able to destroy the whole Science Ninja Team this time.
This has every piece of information about them after all.
If you turn the main dial on the box to the right, it will reproduce what's in its memory.
Listen, don't make a mistake. It's to the right!
All right! However Dr. Borombo, unfortunately we won't be able to return your daughter to you.
What?! You lied to me! You broke our deal!
You're the one who broke it.
You were supposed to come here alone, but look at that!
It wasn't me! They followed me here on their own!
It's the truth!
Either way, it's the same thing. It's the truth!
Either way, it's the same thing.
We judge based on results.
If you want to blame someone, blame the Science Ninja Team.
Please spare her! She lost her mother when she was little,
and I've raised her all by myself.
She's my life! Please spare my daughter!
Oh yeah, there is one way to save your daughter.
What?
Kill the Science Ninja Team, with your own hands.
What?!
I'm sure they'll lower their guard around you.
Use that chance to kill them.
Although if you do that, I won't need this any more.
You're really going to give my daughter back to me, right?
You better be sure about that.
Wait! You'll blow it if you go out there right now.
Let's just wait and observe them until your right hand stops shaking.
Hey, this will take us upstairs!
Good, let's go.
Will we be okay?
Things are getting interesting.
Now!
Ah! My hands hurt! Joe, let's jump down!
Wait! If we go down, we'll be at a disadvantage.
What's coming next is...
What are we going to do? It's going to crush us!
Jun, use your yo-yo bomb!
Roger!
Jump into the elevator!
If you don't get the timing right, you'll be crushed!
No good! I can't stop it!
Here it comes!
Now!
Damn it!
Jun, c'mon, go up!
I can't ! It feels like my arms are going to get ripped off!
We're not going to make it!
C'mon, hurry up!
Science Ninja Team Gatchaman
Gatchaman
Big brother!
Is everyone okay?
Big brother! Big brother!
Big brother!
Be careful, just a little carelessness could be deadly.
Dr. Borombo, has your hand stopped shaking?
Then it's your turn now.
Okay...
Huh? Someone is coming!
That's Dr. Borombo. He doesn't have the case with him.
Doctor!
Hello, Science Ninja Team.
Where's Galactor? You'll show us the way there, won't you?
Yeah, it's over there. Everyone's there, just follow me.
Whoa, there.
A scientist shouldn't be using things like this, Dr. Borombo.
You're such a bad actor, Doc. Normally if you met us in a place like this...
...you'd be more surprised than that!
Doctor, we're aware of everything that's been going on.
Please let us handle the rest.
Remember, we were formed to prevent incidents like this as well.
Help... Please help my daughter!
I'll acknowledge your hard work, Gatchaman.
It seems you've come all the way out here to retrieve the data,
but unfortunately you're too late.
I'm going to take my time and unlock all your secrets,
just like I'm plucking the feathers from those capes one by one!
And when I finish plucking all of your feathers,
you'll be eliminated from this world!
The hell we will!
Shoot them!
Bird Run! Shoot them!
Bird Run!
Take that!
Wait, truce! Truce!
He's so evil!
Bastard!
Bird Run!
Ken, Katse is running away!
I bet he's going to try to escape in the ladybug mecha!
All right, take care of the rest!
This must be it!
You're stretching my neck!
You jerks!
I'm done. There's always so many of them. It's such a pain in the butt!
Wait, where did Ken go?
He's gone after Katse.
What?
Damn it! He's going to steal the limelight! What?
Damn it! He's going to steal the limelight!
We'll hear from him soon. Let's stand by until then.
Anything suspicious?
No, Sir!
All right! You may all rest until I give you your next orders.
Yes, Sir!
Gentlemen, you should be delighted.
Galactor's victory is finally right around the corner.
Lord Katse, how would you like us to send his daughter back?
What? Did you just say, “ send her back?” Are you serious?
Sir? What do you mean?
Don't let Borombo find out we killed his daughter!
We'll keep him thinking that his daughter's life is in Galactor's hands.
It'll come in handy for us in the future.
So his daughter is going to...
Man, he's ruthless!
Yeah, he's the devil! Man, he's ruthless!
Yeah, he's the devil! Did you just say something?
No, Sir! That's our Lord Katse! What a brilliant idea, Sir!
Good, then get rid of her now. We don't need the daughter anymore!
What's going on?
Shoot! It's an infrared beam!
He's over there!
All right, go get him! He's over there!
All right, go get him!
Hold it right there!
Don't let him get away!
Up there!
Damn it!
You're...
Dr. Borombo's ...
He's not here?
I could have sworn he came this way.
Find him!
Hey, the lock is broken.
He's not here either!
Might as well finish her off while we're here. He's not here either!
Might as well finish her off while we're here.
If you want to blame someone, blame Katse.
It's him!
Hurry!
Get him!
Hurry up!
Come on!
Get him!
Take this!
We've got to hurry!
I'll just help myself to this. You can have that time bomb in exchange.
Damn it! We've got to get out of here quick! It's too dangerous here.
There he is!
Out of my way!
Don't listen to Katse's orders! He's the kind of guy who escapes and leaves all of you behind!
Get out of my way!
This place is going to blow up. You'd better get out of here.
Hey, wait!
Your father is really worried about you. Come on, let's go back.
Thank you. I don't even know how to thank you enough.
I was so scared. But I'm saved, right?
That's right. You're okay now.
I couldn't get the data back...
How should I report that to Dr. Nambu?
What's big brother doing anyway?! I hope they didn't get him.
Ken! We've been waiting for you to call!
Dr. Borombo's daughter has been rescued safe and sound.
But instead...
What? You couldn't get the data back?!
What the hell have you been doing?
That's all. I'm ending my report.
Ken, where the hell are you?!
Galactor got us good this time.
Then what are we going to do?
That data is useless.
Was it fake?
No, it's the real data, but I manipulated the equipment
so it erases all the data on the plastic tape when you flip the switch.
It's the same method used to erase the sound from a cassette tape.
So right about now...
What's going on?!
The data is being erased! It's being erased! What's happening?
Damn, that Borombo scum! He tricked me!
Setting up a little trick like that was a piece of cake for me.
After all, I'm still a scientist.
Wait, so we did all that for nothing?!
No, you saved my daughter.
This is Galactor we're dealing with.
I'm pretty sure they would have killed my daughter, even if I let them have the data.
I knew that, but I still wanted to save my daughter's life.
I'm really jealous of your daughter.
Oh yeah, I'm holding one of Galactor's minions as a hostage.
If we interrogate him, we might be able to find out something about them.
What? What's going on? What's so funny?
Doctor, he escaped a long time ago.
He is pretty skilled after all.
What? Do you guys know that man? Huh?
I envy you for having such a caring father.
I'm told he's flying all the way here to come get you.
Hey, do me a favor. I want to see your face.
It wouldn't feel right if I didn't even know the face of the man who saved my life.
C'mon, take it off for me.
Your father should be here any minute.
Please, let me see your face.
Rumi!
Rumi! Rumi!
Papa! Papa!
Rumi! Rumi!
Papa! Papa!
Rumi, I'm so glad! I'm so glad!
Papa!
Papa, that guy over there saved me... Huh?
Rumi...
He must be a busy man. It's okay, you'll meet him again.
Come on, the train uptown will be here soon. Let's go.
Rumi, would you like an orange?
Papa, I'm going to check around.
I just can't help thinking that that man might be on the same train.
That's too dangerous. What will you do if Galactor shows up again?
It's okay, because if that happens, that man will come help me again.
Don't be ridiculous. You have no idea what I've gone through.
Be careful!
I wonder if he's the one?
She doesn't know my face...
And that's how it should be.
A single flower, there for a transient moment in the midst of a grueling battle.
However, just like the scenery passing by, it quickly disappeared into the distance
as if representing the heartbreaking destiny of Ken the Eagle,
who has dedicated his irreplaceable youth to world peace.
