The End of the Crescent Base
Torpedoes detected, distance 500!
Fire the rocket engine! Move the base!
Engine Room 1 is damaged! Engine Room 1 is flooded!
All maintenance personnel begin repairs immediately!
Abandon Engine Room 1 ! Close the shutter to avoid flooding!
Second round of torpedoes approaching, distance 300!
Having discovered the Science Ninja Team's secret base, the Cresent Coral Reef,
Galactor begins a full-scale attack.
Led by a homing device planted in Engine Room 1 ,
a barrage of torpedoes hit their target without fail and destroy the base.
The main engine room is damaged! The main engine room is damaged!
Abandon the coral reef camouflage!
Otherwise, the base will be crushed and fall into the trench!
Understood! We will abandon the coral reef camouflage!
Rocket 2 has failed! The coral reef camouflage won't detach!
Doctor, unless we burn through the pillar and remove it,
the base will fall on its side!
Let's call back the God Phoenix and cut it off using the rocket gun.
Don't , Jun!
Why, Doctor?
Think about what will happen when the God Phoenix comes back.
It will only get shot at by Galactor, who are lying in wait for it.
Computer Room 2 is damaged! It's started flooding!
Repeat, it has started flooding!
Damn!
Doctor!
Attention all Crescent Base engineers.
Evacuate this base immediately!
Attention everyone in the Crescent Base.
Evacuate this base immediately!
Doctor, we can't leave here!
This base won't hold any longer!
It's just a matter of time until it is completely destroyed!
We know, but if we leave here now,
it will be a setback to world peace and the Mantle Project!
What stubborn people!
Ken, evacuate everyone.
All we can do now is to reduce the casualties as much as possible.
What about you, Doctor?
I'll dispose of the important documents
so that Galactor won't get their hands on them. Hurry up!
If anyone disobeys, throw them into the midget submarine even if you have to use force!
Let's go, Jun!
Okay! Let's go, Jun!
Okay!
Huh?
What was that noise?
It was an explosion.
Is it possible that Galactor has attacked our base?
No way! If so, we would have heard from them.
But it's strange that we haven't seen any sign of Galactor even after a thorough search.
At any rate, Ryu, let's go back to the base!
Okay!
This is terrible!
Hello! Is anyone here?!
Is anyone here?!
Hello!
Is anyone here?! Anyone?! Hello!
Is anyone here?! Anyone?!
Ken!
Hello! Isn't there anyone who survived?!
Is anyone here?! Anyone?!
Hello! Is anyone here?! Anyone?!
Hey! Over here!
Is this all? Aren't there any other survivors?
We're the only ones left, but we'll probably die here anyway.
No! The submarine isn't damaged. Please evacuate immediately!
No, if we leave here, it will mean that we caved in to Galactor.
We haven't lost yet. In any case, let's get out of here!
We can't do that.
After all the research and development we've done,
do you think we can just give the Mantle Project to Galactor without a fight?
Sorry.
If you won't listen to me, then I'll drag you out of here, even if it means I have to use force.
Those are my orders from Dr. Nambu.
Please everyone, what we need to achieve world peace aren't machines and documents.
It's your lives! Your strength!
She's right. Even if we retreat this time, we can start fresh as long as we have all of you.
Please hurry! It's dangerous to stay here any longer!
Okay, let's go!
Oh man, lucky thing that the impact was small.
I think it will be able to get out somehow.
Aren't you two coming with us?
We'll leave with Dr. Nambu. Please go on ahead.
Listen, based on the direction the torpedoes are coming from,
Galactor must be taking up positions in the southeast.
Head in the opposite direction and surface as soon as possible.
Okay!
Jun, open the shutter! Turn on the monitors!
Roger!
Damn! The generator room's destroyed!
The escape shutter won't open any higher!
Do you think the submarine can get out okay?
I don't know!
Come on! Make it out of here okay.
Looks like it just barely got through.
Dr. Nambu, the research engineers have escaped safely.
Dr. Nambu! Dr. Nam...
That darn God Phoenix! Looks like they really haven't noticed us.
What?! The God Phoenix returned?
Yes! Would you like us to fire torpedoes at it?
Well, hold on. It'll be fun to see their faces
when they see that their base is on the verge of collapse!
We have a radar shield around us.
There's no way they'll find us.
Our base...
...is a total wreck.
It's gonna be hard to enter.
Be careful, the base has lost its balance.
Even a little shock will make it fall.
What? So the God Phoenix has entered the base?
All right, then!
Everyone! The Science Ninja Team is now a bunch of trapped rats.
Fire the torpedoes all at once, and destroy the Crescent Coral Reef!
Fire!
Dr. Nambu!
Doctor! Dr. Nambu!
Doctor! Dr. Nambu...
Ken, you don't think...
Damn! An automatic door's no good at a time like this.
Ken! Can you hear me, Ken?!
Oh, Joe, is that you? Where are you now?
I'm in the God Phoenix's hangar.
What happened? The shutter won't open.
The generator room was destroyed.
Everything's disabled, from elevators to automatic doors.
That's just great. We shouldn't have tried so hard to get in.
There's something on the radar! A swarm of torpedoes is coming!
What?!
Torpedoes?! Jinpei, what's the distance?!
200! It's too late!
Damn! They were hiding right nearby!
Why? Why didn't their whereabouts show up on the God Phoenix's radar?
They were using a radar shield!
Distance 100!
Ken!
This is it. This is the end for us!
Science Ninja Team Gatchaman
Gatchaman
Here goes...
Did we do it?!
We did it! The Crescent Coral Reef has been torn to shreds!
Hey, out of my way!
It's torn to shreds!
Banzai! Banzai! Banzai!
We did it! We did it! We did it!
We did it. We finally did it!
We blew away the Science Ninja Team along with their base!
Oh, how long I've waited for this day...
Calm down, everyone! This is not the time to party!
Stay on your guard, even after you've won!
We defeated our enemy, but we haven't achieved our goal yet!
We've sacrificed many of our fellow Galactor members
in order to create our ideal world.
We won't toast and shout banzai
until the day the Earth is under the control of Galactor!
What happened? It's terribly quiet.
Jun! Jun!
Did we survive?
Seems like it. Looks like we escaped from the swarm of torpedoes,
but we may have only delayed our deaths for a little while.
In any case, let's start up the God Phoenix.
Oh boy, it's upside-down. What are we gonna do?
Ken! Ken! Are you guys okay?
Joe! We're okay,
but we're worried about Dr. Nambu. He's trapped inside a room.
Dr. Nambu is...
He isn't done for, is he?
Can't you break into the observation room in one burst using the God Phoenix?
We can't . The God Phoenix turned upside-down due to the impact we just had.
We can't do much in a small hangar room!
What's our current depth?
The water pressure is 80. In other words, the depth is 800.
Unless we make a move now, we won't have a chance.
Can't you somehow bring the God Phoenix back right-side up?
That's impossible, unless there's another impact and we get thrown out of the hangar room.
You heard him. We can't do anything like this.
Ken...
Yeah?
What are you thinking about right now?
About my dad and mom.
I see...
What was your mother like?
She was kind, but she was frail.
Especially after Dad went missing, she was often confined to her bed.
And she finally died when I was eleven.
I remember how terribly light her ashes were in my hands.
I envy you, Ken, since you have memories.
What about your parents?
I don't remember, since I grew up in an orphanage.
What's funny?
We've worked together quite a long time, but we didn't know anything
about each other's past or circumstances.
Yeah, that's really true.
Huh? What's that?!
Yes! God hasn't abandoned us yet!
Ryu, turn around and break through the hangar room!
Okay!
Ken, the God Phoenix got inside the base. We'll head over there now.
Really? Then bring something that will burn through the automatic door.
Will gunpowder do?
We don't know where in the room the Doctor is.
We can't do it roughly, Joe.
Got it. I'll figure out something.
Ryu, what's our current depth in the water?
1200!
Okay, Ryu. You remain here and stand by so that we can leave at any time.
Let's go, Jinpei!
Okay! Let's go, Jinpei!
Ryu, open the top dome!
That noise is...
Ken, the water has started coming in.
This isn't good! Pretty soon this base will be twisted apart because of the water pressure!
What happened to Jinpei?
Don't worry. He hallucinated because of the water pressure and blacked out.
More importantly, Joe...
Okay!
Ryu, have the God Phoenix face toward the observation room.
Also, have medical equipment ready.
Ken, we're at a depth of 1800. We're running out of time!
Doctor!
He's all right. Let's transfer him to the God Phoenix immediately!
Hurry up!
You've regained consciousness, Doctor?
You all saved me from that difficult situation.
Is Jinpei also injured?
Don't worry. It's a mild case of decompression sickness.
It will heal by itself if the God Phoenix surfaces slowly.
What happened to the Crescent Base?
I'm sorry, but we abandoned it.
Ryu, turn the God Phoenix around. We'll blow up the Crescent Base.
What?! What did you just say, Doctor?
Doctor!
We'll blow it up using the Super Bird Missiles.
Doctor, that base has our memories in it.
Please let it rest in peace in the depths of the ocean.
Ken, and everyone, listen.
This area of the ocean has a depth of 7,000 meters.
It'd be an easy task for Galactor to salvage it considering their scientific capacity.
If that happens, it means all the records and materials in that base
will fall into Galactor's hands.
The Science Ninja Team must not lose their heads over sentiment.
Look at the reality closely, analyze and act.
Understood, Doctor. Joe, are you ready?
You're the leader.
Ryu, turn around and descend!
That's it.
Okay, I think we can fire from here.
Everyone, watch the end of our base closely.
We'll protect the Crescent Base. We won't let Galactor defeat us!
Ken...
Joe, what are you doing? Ken...
Joe, what are you doing?
Don't worry about me, go rescue Dr. Nambu!
He thinks he's still in the water.
Depth is 2,500. This is beyond the limit of the God Phoenix.
This is how the Crescent Coral Reef,
the secret base of the Science Ninja Team, was lost.
Gatchaman and the others swallow their tears of regret as they rise,
and they keep hearing the laughter of Berg Katse.
However, those who hope for peace are waiting
for the day when the wings of those five become a phoenix
and fly high in the sky, just like the name “ God Phoenix” implies.
Shupa, Shupa, Shupa, Shupa
Unaru enjin, kagaku no ninja
Taosu zo Garakutaa
Sekai no akuma
Tobu zo ninpou tatsumaki faitaa
Taiyou kagayaku chikyuu wo mamore
Kagaku ninjatai Gatchaman, Gatchaman
Taiyou kagayaku chikyuu wo mamore
Kagaku ninjatai Gatchaman, Gatchaman
The Crescent Base is scattered on the bottom of the ocean.
Katse can't stop laughing, and he runs amok as if he owns the world.
Gatchaman and the others grind their teeth in frustration.
However, for some reason, Dr. Nambu doesn't give the order to deploy.
Gatchaman stakes everything on the last Super Bird Missile.
Will Gatchaman and the others really be able to counterattack?
Next time on Science Ninja Team Gatchaman: “Counterattack! The Underground Torpedo Operation” Look forward to it!
