[03:21] ---
    Joey.
[03:23] ---
    Joey!
[03:24] ---
    Joey Jones!
[03:26] ---
    Hang it up for now. It's about time to go to school, right?
[03:33] ---
    Have a nice day!
[03:34] ---
    Hey, wait up!
[03:40] ---
    Have some lunch!
[03:43] ---
    Thank you very much!
[03:45] ---
    Don't be late now!
[04:11] ---
    I'm home!
[04:15] ---
    That you, Joey?
[04:16] ---
    Yeah!
[04:27] ---
    I'm heading out!
[04:29] ---
    Take care now!
[04:40] ---
    Good morning, Joey!
[04:47] ---
    Hi, Lina.
[04:50] ---
    Hey, you free this weekend?
[04:53] ---
    The cheerleaders are having a dance party, you see...
[04:57] ---
    This time we're going together, okay?
[04:59] ---
    Promise me!
[05:02] ---
    B-But on the weekend I have things to do at home...
[05:05] ---
    Man, you always turn me down when I ask you out.
[05:09] ---
    You should ask out some guy that's cooler than me...
[05:12] ---
    You jerk!
[05:13] ---
    Hey, Joey!
[05:18] ---
    Get away from Lina right now, Joey!
[05:22] ---
    It's my brother...
[05:24] ---
    Joey... You and us live in different worlds, you see.
[05:29] ---
    Give up on her.
[05:30] ---
    Nick, that's mean!
[05:31] ---
    Be quiet, Lina.
[05:33] ---
    But I'm the one who...
[05:35] ---
    I told you to be quiet!
[05:37] ---
    It's okay, Lina.
[05:38] ---
    But...
[05:39] ---
    Stop it!
[05:42] ---
    I hate useless punks like you.
[05:45] ---
    And I get real annoyed when they hang around my little sister!
[05:51] ---
    I'm not really...
[05:57] ---
    I can't hear you, Useless!
[06:01] ---
    If you got somethin' to say, then say it nice and loud!
[06:05] ---
    That's about enough!
[06:12] ---
    Will... Let go of him.
[06:17] ---
    Psy...
[06:24] ---
    Got it, Joey? Don't come near my sister again.
[06:28] ---
    We're leaving, Lina!
[06:32] ---
    Joey...
[06:40] ---
    You okay?
[06:43] ---
    Sure. This stuff always happens.
[06:45] ---
    Stand up for yourself, man.
[06:48] ---
    They take advantage of you 'cause you act that way.
[06:52] ---
    What can I do? I'm no match for them.
[06:55] ---
    And I hate fighting.
[07:01] ---
    Thanks.
[07:23] ---
    It'd be awesome if you could put giant wings on it too.
[07:30] ---
    Joey Jones!
[07:33] ---
    Y-Yes?
[07:34] ---
    No talking during class.
[07:37] ---
    S-Sorry...
[07:43] ---
    Okay, that's all for today.
[07:45] ---
    Sorry, Joey.
[07:47] ---
    Don't mind it.
[07:50] ---
    Oh, I'm gonna head over to Prof. Denton's place.
[07:52] ---
    Prof. Denton?
[07:53] ---
    The Professor asked me to buy some stuff for him.
[08:01] ---
    Prof. Denton? I bought those parts you asked for.
[08:06] ---
    Joey, is that you?
[08:09] ---
    You sure look happy...
[08:11] ---
    Something happen?
[08:12] ---
    I did it!
[08:13] ---
    I finally did it!
[08:15] ---
    The greatest accomplishment in history!
[08:18] ---
    This will overturn the common sense of the entire world!
[08:21] ---
    In history?
[08:22] ---
    I was finally successful!
[08:26] ---
    I contacted intelligent extraterrestrial life forms!
[08:31] ---
    Really?
[08:32] ---
    My long research has finally paid off!
[08:35] ---
    I calculated which planets were most likely to contain extraterrestrial life.
[08:39] ---
    Research and development,
[08:41] ---
    experimenting again and again with all kinds of different methods and communication devices!
[08:45] ---
    Slaving away at the microwave transmitter, failure after failure after failure after failure....
[08:51] ---
    And then I finally did it!
[08:55] ---
    C-Congratulations!
[08:56] ---
    Yes, those words are indeed appropriate.
[09:00] ---
    I must refine it even more...
[09:02] ---
    And if I can improve it to allow me to communicate freely,
[09:04] ---
    I, as the first human to make contact with extraterrestrial life,
[09:10] ---
    will surely have my name inscribed into the annals of history!
[09:16] ---
    Okay!
[09:17] ---
    I've got to get to my part time job, so I'll be going now.
[09:20] ---
    Why aren't you more excited about this?
[09:22] ---
    Were you even listening to me?
[09:22] ---
    Bye!
[09:25] ---
    Bye-bye...
[09:27] ---
    Contact with aliens?
[09:30] ---
    I wonder if I'll get to meet an alien before long.
[09:36] ---
    Let's head home.
[09:40] ---
    Hey, Psy...
[09:43] ---
    Something bothering you?
[09:44] ---
    Will said something this morning.
[09:47] ---
    He said I was useless.
[09:49] ---
    That's not true.
[09:51] ---
    You try really hard.
[09:53] ---
    Working a part time job to support your grandma and yourself...
[09:57] ---
    And you're pretty good at school, too.
[10:00] ---
    What does that stuck-up rich kid know, anyway?
[10:03] ---
    You're so cool, Psy.
[10:06] ---
    But I'm not strong like you are.
[10:10] ---
    Come on now, Joey...
[10:16] ---
    Them again?
[10:18] ---
    Hey, that's pretty awesome.
[10:21] ---
    It responds to voice commands.
[10:22] ---
    Watch this... Back flip!
[10:29] ---
    It's a Heybo.
[10:32] ---
    Hey, Nick... Let me try it!
[10:38] ---
    I'm askin' ya!
[10:38] ---
    Let go!
[10:39] ---
    Why not?
[10:41] ---
    I said stop it!
[11:01] ---
    That's dangerous! Be more careful!
[11:09] ---
    S-Sorry...
[11:12] ---
    Whatever. My dad'll buy me a new one.
[11:20] ---
    Let's go, guys.
[11:22] ---
    You sure about that?
[11:23] ---
    Yeah. It's useless now, so I don't need it anymore.
[11:30] ---
    He said he didn't need it, right?
[11:35] ---
    So it's okay if I take it, right?
[11:37] ---
    Hey, buddy... That's one of Nick's toys, you know.
[11:41] ---
    And it's totally broken anyway.
[11:45] ---
    All I have to do is fix it.
[11:47] ---
    And I'd never be able to buy one like this myself.
[11:51] ---
    I'm gonna fix you right up, just you wait.
[12:31] ---
    It's looking pretty good.
[12:34] ---
    Yeah!
[12:35] ---
    I gave it a name.
[12:37] ---
    A name?
[12:39] ---
    Heroman!
[12:40] ---
    Hero...?
[12:42] ---
    That's the name of this robot.
[12:45] ---
    Sounds nice, I like it.
[12:48] ---
    Heroman, huh?
[13:31] ---
    Finished!
[13:34] ---
    Heroman...
[13:36] ---
    Go, Heroman!
[13:38] ---
    Get the bad guys!
[13:40] ---
    Punch, kick!
[13:45] ---
    Joey, isn't it about time?
[13:48] ---
    Oh, that's right.
[13:53] ---
    See you later.
[14:16] ---
    Thanks, Dad.
[14:18] ---
    Sorry about calling you out here like this.
[14:20] ---
    I don't mind.
[14:37] ---
    It's raining... That's rare.
[14:41] ---
    I might have left the window open!
[14:44] ---
    Oh, no!
[14:46] ---
    Hey, Joey, fill me up!
[14:50] ---
    Hey, where are you going?
[14:52] ---
    Sorry, I'll be right back!
[15:01] ---
    Lina, I heard from Will that you have a friend named Joey.
[15:08] ---
    Yeah...
[15:10] ---
    He doesn't seem to have a very good reputation.
[15:13] ---
    There my brother goes again...
[15:25] ---
    Oh, no! The rain!
[15:51] ---
    What the...
[16:01] ---
    What the heck was that?
[16:22] ---
    This is...
[17:08] ---
    Heroman is... alive!
[17:33] ---
    Wow, awesome!
[17:35] ---
    My Heroman! He's alive!
[17:50] ---
    Heroman?
[17:55] ---
    What? An accident, maybe?
[17:59] ---
    Something the matter, Heroman?
[18:11] ---
    It looks different than before...
[18:36] ---
    Stop!
[18:38] ---
    Please, stop!
[18:57] ---
    What?
[19:22] ---
    That car... Isn't that...
[19:31] ---
    Lina, Lina!
[19:35] ---
    Lina!
[19:43] ---
    What should I...
[19:47] ---
    Heroman!
[19:49] ---
    Please, please...
[19:51] ---
    Save Lina, Heroman!
[20:06] ---
    Right!
[20:09] ---
    Heroman...
[20:13] ---
    Go!
[21:20] ---
    Lina...
[21:21] ---
    Heroman...
[21:43] ---
    Heroman!
[21:48] ---
    You are definitely... my hero!
[21:55] ---
    Hello, hello, to my unseen friends and neighbors!
[22:02] ---
    I am Prof. Matthew Denton, representing the third planet of the solar system.
[22:08] ---
    We Earthlings wish to make contact with you!
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    Oh, no! Saucers are coming down from the sky!
[23:55] ---
    Are those... aliens?
[23:57] ---
    Joey has had his dramatic meeting with Heroman.
[24:00] ---
    And waiting for them is an earth invasion by extraterrestrial life forms, the Skrugg!
[24:07] ---
    The responsibility of one who gains power...
[24:09] ---
    When the time comes, Heroman and Joey will...
[24:12] ---
    Next time, Heroman Episode #2: Encounter!
[24:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[01:43] ---
    That wasn't a dream... was it?
[03:14] ---
    Joey, what's the matter?
[03:18] ---
    I-It's nothing!
[03:19] ---
    Come on now, is something the matter?
[03:22] ---
    No, seriously! It's nothing, really!
[03:25] ---
    Can you leave me alone for a bit?
[03:27] ---
    Please! Stop!
[03:32] ---
    Joey's acting strange...
[03:40] ---
    Don't be frightened.
[03:42] ---
    All that happened is some lighting struck our house and damaged it.
[04:22] ---
    Heroman... Go!
[04:38] ---
    W-What am I going to do?
[05:02] ---
    Even if you have an expression like this,
[05:04] ---
    if you factor it into primes you can still solve for the least common multiple.
[05:10] ---
    All you need to do is think of it just like how you deal with numbers,
[05:14] ---
    and take the prime factor with the highest exponent.
[05:17] ---
    Joey!
[05:19] ---
    Pay attention.
[05:20] ---
    Right! I'm sorry...
[05:23] ---
    For example: Like the previous expressions,
[05:26] ---
    if you have an x and an x cubed...
[05:29] ---
    Psy's got his part time job, huh?
[05:31] ---
    Give me V!
[05:33] ---
    Give me I!
[05:35] ---
    Give me C-T-O-R-Y! VICTORY!
[05:47] ---
    Joey!
[05:51] ---
    Lina!
[05:54] ---
    Don't worry, my brother and his gang aren't around.
[05:57] ---
    Anyway, did you hear?
[05:59] ---
    When we had that storm the other day, something amazing happened!
[06:03] ---
    I was caught up in an accident and me and my dad were trapped in our car.
[06:09] ---
    But then...
[06:11] ---
    I-I don't know a thing about that!
[06:14] ---
    I don't know anything!
[06:16] ---
    It had nothing to do with me!
[06:17] ---
    Is something the matter?
[06:18] ---
    Sorry, I have stuff to do.
[06:20] ---
    Gotta go!
[06:23] ---
    Joey's acting strange...
[06:36] ---
    Something the matter?
[06:42] ---
    Don't scare me like that...
[06:45] ---
    You're the one that's scaring me.
[06:47] ---
    What's with you lately?
[06:49] ---
    Are you hiding something from me?
[06:52] ---
    No... That's not it.
[06:56] ---
    Say that, hypothetically...
[06:59] ---
    If a hero appeared before you one day, Grandma,
[07:03] ---
    and it turned out he'd do anything you told him to...
[07:08] ---
    What would you do?
[07:10] ---
    Do you have a fever or something?
[07:12] ---
    I told you, hypothetically...
[07:16] ---
    Well...
[07:19] ---
    For the time being, how about trimming the grass for me?
[07:33] ---
    So, that's the deal.
[07:35] ---
    What do you think, Psy?
[07:38] ---
    Hold it a sec.
[07:40] ---
    I don't get what you're saying.
[07:44] ---
    Neither do I.
[07:46] ---
    Can something like this even really happen?
[07:49] ---
    Uh, so basically this "Heroman" turned into a giant and saved Lina?
[07:56] ---
    But Heroman here holds amazing power...
[08:01] ---
    Yeah.
[08:03] ---
    What do you think I should do?
[08:07] ---
    Is it really okay for me to have a robot with such amazing power?
[08:12] ---
    Maybe I should hide it somewhere...
[08:16] ---
    Look here, Joey.
[08:18] ---
    What is Heroman to you?
[08:26] ---
    Welcome!
[08:28] ---
    You answer that question first, and then figure out what to do.
[08:32] ---
    Don't rely on other people's opinions. You have to make this decision yourself.
[08:37] ---
    Hey, Psy...
[08:40] ---
    What would you do if you were me?
[08:45] ---
    I'd jump in bed and go back to sleep.
[08:48] ---
    Then maybe I'd wake up from the dream.
[08:58] ---
    Heroman, what should I do?
[09:11] ---
    Hello, hello, to my unseen friends and neighbors!
[09:16] ---
    I am Prof. Matthew Denton, representing the third planet of the solar system.
[09:22] ---
    We Earthlings wish to make contact with you!
[09:26] ---
    Please, respond!
[09:29] ---
    Hello, hello, to my unseen friends and neighbors!
[09:34] ---
    I am Prof. Matthew Denton, representing the third planet of the solar system.
[09:48] ---
    Huh?
[09:55] ---
    What's that?
[10:23] ---
    Whoa, it's aliens!
[10:25] ---
    What? Another TV shoot?
[10:27] ---
    Wait, isn't that my car?!
[10:54] ---
    It's a movie... Gotta be a movie shoot.
[10:57] ---
    Hey, you people!
[10:59] ---
    If you want to film a movie, you need to get a permit first!
[11:30] ---
    Hey, what's that?
[11:32] ---
    Seems like something's going on.
[11:35] ---
    What's all the fuss about?
[11:40] ---
    Let's go check it out!
[11:41] ---
    Hey, wait, Will!
[11:56] ---
    That's far enough!
[11:58] ---
    Throw down your weapons and surrender immediately!
[12:00] ---
    You're completely surrounded!
[12:03] ---
    I repeat!
[12:05] ---
    Throw down your weapons and surrender!
[12:07] ---
    If you do not comply with our warning, we're willing to use force!
[12:12] ---
    Throw down your weapons...
[12:26] ---
    Open fire!
[12:35] ---
    Holy... Is this some kind of a joke?
[12:38] ---
    Guns... have no effect!
[12:41] ---
    They're monsters!
[12:49] ---
    Lord Kogorr, reporting in.
[12:52] ---
    Their level of civilization is low, and their military and offensive capabilities are nothing to fear.
[12:57] ---
    The composition of the atmosphere is also within our operational limits.
[13:01] ---
    I see...
[13:02] ---
    I'd like more information.
[13:04] ---
    Search out the source of the interplanetary communication signal, and bring me the one responsible for it.
[13:09] ---
    I wish to use him as a sample...
[13:13] ---
    Understood.
[13:14] ---
    We have already locked on to the signal.
[13:17] ---
    Do not fail me.
[13:24] ---
    Are you sure we're not dreaming?
[13:28] ---
    Will, we've got to run away, too!
[13:31] ---
    Run away?
[13:32] ---
    Yeah!
[13:33] ---
    If we don't hurry up, we'll get caught up in it ourselves!
[13:38] ---
    We've received information that the explosion at the intersection in Center City
[13:41] ---
    was due to an attack by some unknown group.
[13:44] ---
    What's going on?
[13:44] ---
    According to eye-witnesses,
[13:46] ---
    the ones responsible were three... aliens?!
[13:49] ---
    Aliens?
[13:50] ---
    I contacted intelligent extraterrestrial life forms!
[13:55] ---
    It couldn't be...
[13:57] ---
    Anyway, this sounds bad. Joey...
[13:59] ---
    Hey, Joey! Where are you going?
[14:15] ---
    Prof. Denton!
[14:17] ---
    What's up?
[14:19] ---
    Why're you giving me that look?
[14:20] ---
    Well, seems like something's going on outside, but...
[14:23] ---
    It's bad!
[14:25] ---
    I know this sounds crazy, but they're already here!
[14:50] ---
    Is it you?
[14:52] ---
    It spoke!
[14:54] ---
    We are the Skrugg.
[14:57] ---
    Are you the one broadcasting the interplanetary signal?
[15:01] ---
    Yes! That would be me!
[15:04] ---
    So you picked up my signal and came here, right?
[15:09] ---
    That is correct.
[15:10] ---
    This is all because of that signal which you are broadcasting.
[15:16] ---
    I bid you welcome! As the representative for humanity!
[15:19] ---
    That will not be necessary.
[15:22] ---
    Because, we...
[15:27] ---
    Because we are beings that will destroy this planet.
[15:35] ---
    Destroy... this planet?
[15:39] ---
    We will bring you with us as the representative for humanity.
[15:45] ---
    In order to extract various information from your memory area.
[15:51] ---
    What do you...
[15:52] ---
    Let us also take the one with you.
[15:55] ---
    The more samples, the better.
[15:59] ---
    Me, too?
[16:04] ---
    Looks like we've got ourselves another sample.
[16:12] ---
    Professor!
[16:14] ---
    This is my responsibility!
[16:16] ---
    You expect to resist us with that?
[16:27] ---
    Go, run!
[16:30] ---
    Don't rely on other people's opinions. You have to make this decision yourself.
[16:38] ---
    What's the matter? Get out of here, Joey!
[16:41] ---
    No, I'm not leaving!
[16:46] ---
    I might... No...
[16:49] ---
    He might be able to do something!
[17:16] ---
    Heroman...
[17:19] ---
    Engage!
[17:52] ---
    What?!
[17:59] ---
    That's...
[18:01] ---
    Are you okay?
[18:03] ---
    Sure...
[18:05] ---
    But...
[18:07] ---
    That robot...
[18:13] ---
    Was it...
[18:22] ---
    You want some?
[18:38] ---
    Lina!
[18:44] ---
    Lina!
[19:05] ---
    Joey...
[19:09] ---
    Heroman!
[19:11] ---
    Joey?
[19:12] ---
    Stay here.
[19:14] ---
    I've got this power inside me, too!
[19:27] ---
    Let's do this, Heroman.
[19:37] ---
    Lina, are you okay?
[19:40] ---
    Joey is... Joey is...
[19:43] ---
    Whoa...
[20:04] ---
    I can't believe this!
[20:07] ---
    Heroman!
[20:19] ---
    Stay back!
[20:20] ---
    Stay back!
[20:39] ---
    Heroman...
[20:42] ---
    Finish!
[21:05] ---
    Joey!
[21:11] ---
    You did it, Joey!
[21:12] ---
    Yeah!
[21:13] ---
    Heroman is our hero!
[21:16] ---
    Nope...
[21:19] ---
    That's not right, Joey.
[21:21] ---
    You're both heroes!
[21:23] ---
    Both of us?
[21:34] ---
    What in the world...
[21:37] ---
    Joey...
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    Oh, no, Prof. Denton!
[23:54] ---
    A giant Skrugg saucer is here!
[23:56] ---
    It seemed liked the invaders were driven away thanks to Heroman's actions,
[23:59] ---
    but it was just a prelude to the coming battle.
[24:03] ---
    Under the command of their leader, Kogorr,
[24:06] ---
    the Skrugg have begun their Earth invasion, and humanity's forces are at their wit's end.
[24:12] ---
    Next time, Heroman Episode #3: Invasion!
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[02:00] ---
    That's...
[02:02] ---
    The Skrugg's... spaceship!
[02:32] ---
    It's so big...
[02:33] ---
    I can believe anything now...
[02:56] ---
    You've got to be kiddin' me!
[02:58] ---
    The chief told us to shoot that thing down with these?
[03:02] ---
    That's like takin' a grizzly down with your bare hands!
[03:05] ---
    Wait a sec... Please, tell me what's going on here...
[03:09] ---
    Is this really happening?
[03:11] ---
    How the hell should I know?
[03:31] ---
    Where is the report from the reconnaissance team?
[03:33] ---
    Communications have remained silent.
[03:35] ---
    No matter. Begin!
[04:40] ---
    Hurry Joey! Everyone evacuate!
[04:43] ---
    Right!
[04:44] ---
    But, where should we run to?
[04:47] ---
    We were taught to gather at the city hall if something like this happened.
[04:50] ---
    Let's go!
[04:58] ---
    That's in the direction of my house...
[05:03] ---
    I'm going to check on my grandma!
[05:05] ---
    Wait!
[05:08] ---
    I'm coming, too.
[05:09] ---
    But...
[05:10] ---
    Don't worry.
[05:14] ---
    As long as I've got this guy, I can handle it.
[05:18] ---
    Okay, let's get a move on.
[05:19] ---
    Wait a sec!
[05:20] ---
    Let me come, too!
[05:21] ---
    You take care of the professor, Lina.
[05:23] ---
    We're countin' on you.
[05:27] ---
    Hold it!
[05:30] ---
    Will!
[05:35] ---
    Where are you planning on going?
[05:37] ---
    And why the hell would we tell you something like...
[05:40] ---
    I'm going to my house.
[05:42] ---
    Bye.
[05:44] ---
    We're not done talking here.
[05:48] ---
    What are you going to use that robot for?
[05:52] ---
    You plan on becoming a hero or something?
[05:55] ---
    I'm not really...
[05:57] ---
    I won't accept it.
[05:59] ---
    I'll never accept someone like you being a hero!
[06:04] ---
    Stop it, Will!
[06:09] ---
    All I'm doing is going home.
[06:13] ---
    Let's go!
[06:16] ---
    Chickens like you should turn-tail and run!
[06:19] ---
    Say that again!
[06:22] ---
    Come on! We've got to hurry and evacuate!
[06:29] ---
    Why those little...
[06:50] ---
    I didn't copy that...
[06:51] ---
    Please repeat.
[06:55] ---
    Just to double check... This is not a joke, correct?
[06:58] ---
    What's wrong?
[07:02] ---
    Mr. President, we have a matter of grave importance.
[07:04] ---
    A matter of grave importance?
[07:25] ---
    I take back what I said!
[07:27] ---
    This is more like ants tryin' to stand up to an elephant!
[07:34] ---
    Shouldn't we high-tail it out of here while we still can?
[07:38] ---
    No kidding...
[07:44] ---
    It's the army!
[07:55] ---
    America, hell yeah!
[08:32] ---
    How awful...
[08:35] ---
    Joey!
[08:39] ---
    Why'd you do that?
[08:47] ---
    It's them.
[08:48] ---
    What should we do?
[08:49] ---
    Uh...
[08:50] ---
    Should we let them pass by?
[08:52] ---
    Or bust 'em up with your pal there?
[09:03] ---
    I'm worried about my grandma. Let's wait for them to pass.
[09:06] ---
    Okay.
[10:07] ---
    Eat this, you cockroach sonofabitches!
[10:19] ---
    All right!
[10:19] ---
    Yeah!
[10:41] ---
    Joey...
[10:43] ---
    Joey, Joey!
[10:46] ---
    Hurry up.
[10:48] ---
    Y-Yeah...
[10:55] ---
    Balzac 1 to squadron...
[10:57] ---
    Balzac 1 to squadron...
[10:59] ---
    Maintain formation.
[11:01] ---
    Approach at low-altitude until 7 miles to target, then break, climb, and begin attack!
[11:06] ---
    Copy that?
[11:08] ---
    Don't go giving the ground any kisses now, you hear!
[11:10] ---
    Roger that!
[11:18] ---
    Begin attack!
[11:35] ---
    Impossible!
[11:44] ---
    Evasive maneuvers!
[11:46] ---
    Reform and regroup!
[11:55] ---
    To think there would be such a difference in our powers.
[11:59] ---
    There is now nothing for us to fear.
[12:02] ---
    Proceed to the next step in the plan!
[13:06] ---
    Fire!
[13:17] ---
    Don't push!
[13:18] ---
    One at a time!
[13:24] ---
    Everything will be fine. Calm down.
[13:28] ---
    This is my fault...
[13:31] ---
    If I hadn't broadcast that transmission, then this...
[13:34] ---
    Then this wouldn't have...
[13:37] ---
    Will?
[13:43] ---
    Hey...
[13:45] ---
    Lina!
[13:46] ---
    Have you seen my brother?
[13:47] ---
    I don't know where he is.
[13:49] ---
    He was here a little while ago, but...
[13:51] ---
    We came here together, right?
[13:53] ---
    Did you guys hear where he was going?
[13:55] ---
    I told you, we don't know.
[13:57] ---
    You should ask Nick.
[13:59] ---
    Now that you mention it, I haven't seen him around either.
[14:17] ---
    W-What are you planning on doing, Will?
[14:20] ---
    Good question.
[14:22] ---
    How about sneaking into their saucer?
[14:26] ---
    What? No way!
[14:27] ---
    Didn't you just see? Even the military is no match for them!
[14:32] ---
    Exactly.
[14:33] ---
    What do you mean?
[14:35] ---
    Look here. I have an idea.
[14:40] ---
    You don't have to come, you know.
[14:42] ---
    Oh, no... I'll come, too!
[14:45] ---
    If I stick with Will, I might get famous!
[14:49] ---
    I'll be the one that becomes the hero!
[14:53] ---
    Just you watch, Psy, Joey!
[15:12] ---
    Somehow the house looks like it's safe.
[15:14] ---
    Thank goodness!
[15:24] ---
    Joey!
[15:34] ---
    Hey! Your grandma comes first, right?
[15:37] ---
    I have to stop them!
[15:38] ---
    If they destroy any more, my grandma'll die of shock!
[15:42] ---
    I'm counting on you, Heroman.
[15:44] ---
    Hey, Joey!
[15:46] ---
    Hurry up!
[15:54] ---
    W-Wait!
[15:56] ---
    T-Time out!
[16:01] ---
    Uh... Well...
[16:41] ---
    Heroman...
[16:43] ---
    Engage!
[17:47] ---
    Heroman!
[17:56] ---
    Heroman!
[18:01] ---
    Joey!
[18:32] ---
    All right!
[18:35] ---
    Heroman, I'll fight, too!
[18:39] ---
    I won't leave you alone.
[18:49] ---
    What's this?
[18:59] ---
    Heroman...
[19:01] ---
    Blast!
[19:58] ---
    All right!
[20:19] ---
    Grandma!
[20:29] ---
    Oh? Joey, Psy... Why are you here?
[20:32] ---
    Why are we here?
[20:34] ---
    You didn't notice?
[20:36] ---
    Notice what?
[20:40] ---
    Now that you mention it, it's been quite noisy outside today.
[20:44] ---
    Is something going on?
[20:47] ---
    And why aren't you two at school?
[21:15] ---
    Attention, all living things on this planet.
[21:19] ---
    Attention, all living things on this planet.
[21:23] ---
    Attention, all living things on this planet.
[21:28] ---
    We are the Skrugg.

    Rulers of the universe!

    To repeat:
[21:35] ---
    We are the Skrugg.
[21:37] ---
    Rulers of the universe!
[21:41] ---
    From henceforth we proclaim this planet as ours!
[21:54] ---
    This decision will not be overturned.
[21:57] ---
    We will eliminate all who resist without mercy.
[22:02] ---
    To repeat:
[22:04] ---
    We are the Skrugg.

[23:53] ---
    It's big and round and...
[23:55] ---
    ...a sea urchin?!
[23:56] ---
    Joey and Psy managed to rescue his grandmother,
[23:59] ---
    however the Skrugg's Earth invasion plan has proceeded to a new stage.
[24:05] ---
    People can do nothing but stand their ground against the indestructible,
[24:09] ---

[01:35] ---
    Oh, my goodness!
[01:43] ---
    Sure is quiet...
[01:44] ---
    It doesn't look like there's any of those guys around.
[01:47] ---
    Joey, look at that!
[01:53] ---
    What is that monstrous mushroom?
[01:58] ---
    Hey, Psy... Let's hurry to the emergency shelter.
[02:02] ---
    Who knows when they'll come again.
[02:04] ---
    Yeah. That sounds like a good idea.
[02:13] ---
    All right, let's go.
[02:15] ---
    Hey, Will, this is kinda...
[02:17] ---
    Episode #4 Sphere
[02:24] ---
    Lord Kogorr, our forces have finished withdrawing.
[02:28] ---
    Although it is only a trifle, we have suffered some small losses.
[02:33] ---
    They try and resist, but it is futile.
[02:35] ---
    Now, proceed to the second stage of the plan!
[02:39] ---
    Yes, Lord.
[02:54] ---
    It's a lot bigger than it looks from afar.
[02:58] ---
    Where can we get in?
[03:00] ---
    That's what we're going to look for now.
[03:04] ---
    Hey, don't you think maybe we should go back?
[03:07] ---
    You want to go back? Then go by yourself.
[03:10] ---
    I didn't mean...
[03:14] ---
    What is it?
[03:43] ---
    Hey, Will...
[03:45] ---
    What are you planning on doing?
[03:48] ---
    I told you, remember? We're going to be the heroes.
[03:52] ---
    I think we're already plenty good heroes sneaking into the enemy's base...
[03:57] ---
    That's not good enough!
[03:59] ---
    Then what is?
[04:02] ---
    You want to know?
[04:07] ---
    We're going to steal their weapons!
[04:10] ---
    Then we'll take them all down!
[04:13] ---
    That's impossible!
[04:15] ---
    No, it's not!
[04:16] ---
    We've made it all the way here, after all.
[04:19] ---
    Uh...
[04:28] ---
    Here.
[04:28] ---
    Thank you.
[04:31] ---
    Joey!
[04:33] ---
    Lina!
[04:34] ---
    Thank goodness, you're safe!
[04:37] ---
    Yeah! Grandma's safe, too.
[04:39] ---
    Hello!
[04:40] ---
    Hello, my dear.
[04:42] ---
    Lina, where's the Professor?
[04:44] ---
    Professor Denton went back to the school a little while ago.
[04:48] ---
    Let's go.
[04:49] ---
    I'm sure the Professor knows something.
[04:51] ---
    Yeah.
[04:53] ---
    Grandma, I'm going back out for a bit.
[04:57] ---
    Wait a second!
[05:00] ---
    Do you know where Nick and my brother are?
[05:02] ---
    I haven't seen them around here for a while.
[05:05] ---
    Will and Nick?
[05:09] ---
    Where are you planning on going?
[05:10] ---
    I'll never accept someone like you being a hero!
[05:15] ---
    I sure hope that guy isn't doing anything reckless...
[05:19] ---
    Will...
[05:21] ---
    I'm sure he's fine.
[05:22] ---
    We'll look for him later.
[05:25] ---
    Thank you.
[05:27] ---
    First comes the Professor.
[05:29] ---
    Come on, Joey.
[05:30] ---
    Right.
[05:31] ---
    Joey, be careful!
[05:33] ---
    I know!
[05:41] ---
    Professor Denton!
[05:44] ---
    Oh, it's you two.
[05:46] ---
    What are you doing at a time like this?
[05:49] ---
    Now is exactly the time to do this!
[05:51] ---
    Take a look at this.
[05:53] ---
    That's...
[05:54] ---
    ...one of the alien's weapons!
[05:56] ---
    Exactly!
[05:58] ---
    It was tossed aside from the wreckage of one of the ones your robot defeated.
[06:02] ---
    It's hyper-advanced technology the defies description!
[06:05] ---
    With this I can understand why the military was completely useless.
[06:10] ---
    How do you figure that?
[06:12] ---
    Anyway, it's amazing!
[06:15] ---
    I can't even put it into words to explain!
[06:17] ---
    In other words, you don't really understand.
[06:20] ---
    Well, this is all basically my fault.
[06:23] ---
    Each time some part of this city was destroyed,
[06:26] ---
    I felt my heart be torn more and more to shreds!
[06:29] ---
    However!
[06:30] ---
    That is exactly why I can't run away from this!
[06:33] ---
    In order to atone for the sins I have committed, I must act!
[06:38] ---
    These are my true feelings!
[06:41] ---
    So then, Joey...
[06:43] ---
    Uh, yes?
[06:45] ---
    That robot of yours... It's called, "Heroman," yes?
[06:48] ---
    Would you let me disassemble it?
[06:51] ---
    N-No!
[06:53] ---
    But if I can uncover how that robot operates, we can fight back against them!
[06:59] ---
    It'd greatly increase our offensive potential...
[07:01] ---
    Whatever, Professor!
[07:03] ---
    Have you figured anything out about them?
[07:06] ---
    Well, you see...
[07:08] ---
    I understand, but I don't really understand...
[07:11] ---
    Well, there's some things I've figured out...
[07:13] ---
    Um, can you cut to the chase here?
[07:18] ---
    Oh?
[07:19] ---
    Fine then.
[07:22] ---
    They are called the Skrugg.
[07:24] ---
    From their outward appearance,
[07:26] ---
    I could imagine them as some sort of evolved form of cockroach.
[07:30] ---
    However!
[07:32] ---
    They possess incredible technology based on science that human beings have yet to even imagine!
[07:40] ---
    And...?
[07:41] ---
    And?
[07:42] ---
    And what?
[07:43] ---
    Do they have a weak point or something?
[07:45] ---
    Are they weak against germs?
[07:47] ---
    Or can't stand the cold?
[07:49] ---
    You expect me to determine that kind of thing in such a short time?
[07:55] ---
    In other words, you haven't figured anything out.
[07:59] ---
    It's true that everything's full of mysteries right now.
[08:03] ---
    But there is one thing I know.
[08:06] ---
    The strength to surpass the overwhelming power of the Skrugg...
[08:10] ---
    ...is possessed by Heroman.
[08:15] ---
    Heroman holds the key to this battle, Joey!
[08:39] ---
    These are amazing.
[08:46] ---
    Look for some weapons we can use.
[08:49] ---
    Damn it, it won't budge...
[08:53] ---
    It's no use.
[08:56] ---
    How do you work it?
[09:02] ---
    What happened?
[09:07] ---
    W-Whoa!
[09:08] ---
    Let me have it!
[09:10] ---
    With this, I can fight them!
[09:16] ---
    H-Hold up, Will!
[09:24] ---
    A dead-end?
[09:27] ---
    Something isn't right, Will.
[09:29] ---
    I'm sure this is the way we came before...
[09:34] ---
    Let's turn back.
[09:42] ---
    Was there a passageway here before?
[09:45] ---
    Will!
[09:46] ---
    Stop crying like a little sissy!
[09:50] ---
    Will!
[10:00] ---
    This is a pretty big room.
[10:02] ---
    Look at that!
[10:23] ---
    Damn it!
[10:24] ---
    Why won't it shoot? Damn it!
[10:55] ---
    We have captured some intruders.
[10:58] ---
    Did you little bugs get lost?
[11:01] ---
    Bugs...
[11:02] ---
    You're the damn bugs!
[11:06] ---
    You'd best know your place, feeble human.
[11:10] ---
    But, worry not.
[11:13] ---
    This world will soon fall into our hands.
[11:17] ---
    Thanks to those weapons you fools saw.
[11:21] ---
    You think we'll let you?!
[11:23] ---
    Take them away!
[11:25] ---
    Yes, Lord.
[11:29] ---
    Open the main gate!
[11:31] ---
    Proceed to stage 3 of the plan!
[11:50] ---
    Now, go! Mow down all before you!
[12:00] ---
    Ready?
[12:01] ---
    Okay, here I go!
[12:04] ---
    Heroman Engage!
[12:11] ---
    And nothing happens...
[12:13] ---
    Maybe he didn't say it right.
[12:15] ---
    I guess it only reacts to you, Joey.
[12:19] ---
    Heroman... Engage!
[12:27] ---
    What's that?
[12:28] ---
    It wasn't me!
[12:29] ---
    Definitely not me!
[12:31] ---
    We know!
[12:38] ---
    See something?
[12:48] ---
    A sphere?
[12:49] ---
    A perfect sphere indeed.
[12:52] ---
    Now's not the time to be impressed!
[12:55] ---
    That sphere is heading this way!
[12:58] ---
    If it keeps going in that direction...
[13:05] ---
    This is not good!
[13:12] ---
    Psy, Professor... You two evacuate everyone.
[13:15] ---
    No, I'm coming with you.
[13:18] ---
    I must take responsibility!
[13:21] ---
    I have a duty to take responsibility for the people of this city... no, for the world!
[13:28] ---
    I understand.
[13:30] ---
    Let's go, Joey.
[13:32] ---
    Psy, everyone's counting on you.
[13:35] ---
    Leave them to me!
[13:45] ---
    It's kind of... big.
[13:47] ---
    I'm doing it now.
[13:50] ---
    Let's go.
[14:00] ---
    Heroman...
[14:02] ---
    Engage!
[14:21] ---
    Heroman!
[14:22] ---
    Are you okay?
[14:40] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
[14:45] ---
    All right!
[14:49] ---
    What? It didn't even make a dent.
[14:54] ---
    Come on now, hurry.
[14:56] ---
    Everyone over here. Quickly!
[14:59] ---
    Watch your step.
[15:01] ---
    Hurry! Hurry and get to safety!
[15:05] ---
    This is bad. They're not going to make it at this rate.
[15:08] ---
    We're counting on you, Joey!
[15:15] ---
    It's not working at all.
[15:17] ---
    Joey!
[15:18] ---
    Professor Denton!
[15:22] ---
    Joey...
[15:23] ---
    Professor, that sphere is incredibly hard.
[15:26] ---
    I know. And I have a plan about that.
[15:33] ---
    We'll trap that sphere in a hole.
[15:36] ---
    A hole?
[15:38] ---
    Oh, don't worry.
[15:41] ---
    I'm not talking about digging one now.
[15:44] ---
    Then, how?
[15:48] ---
    A subway station and underground mall are being constructed under here.
[15:53] ---
    And there's a large cavity that's been made to construct the extension to the tracks.
[16:00] ---
    I see! So we open up a hole here, and then the sphere drops into it.
[16:05] ---
    I'd rather not destroy things,
[16:08] ---
    but it's better than losing people's lives.
[16:11] ---
    Can you do it?
[16:13] ---
    I'll try.
[16:21] ---
    Heroman...
[16:23] ---
    Attack!
[16:57] ---
    All right!
[16:58] ---
    Woohoo!
[17:22] ---
    This is nonsense...
[17:24] ---
    This is complete nonsense!
[17:27] ---
    Quickly, everyone!
[17:28] ---
    Hurry!
[17:29] ---
    Hurry up!
[17:33] ---
    Grandma, you need to evacuate.
[17:35] ---
    It looks delicious...
[17:36] ---
    What?
[17:39] ---
    Please stop it, Heroman!
[18:32] ---
    He finally stopped it!
[18:46] ---
    Don't, Heroman!
[18:51] ---
    That's enough! That's enough I say!
[18:56] ---
    Heroman!
[19:18] ---
    Heroman!
[19:40] ---
    Heroman...
[19:42] ---
    Heroman is telling me not to give up... To fight together!
[19:49] ---
    Heroman...
[19:52] ---
    Augment!
[20:07] ---
    Heroman...
[20:08] ---
    ...turned into a giant...
[20:15] ---
    What's that?
[20:40] ---
    That's the way!
[20:41] ---
    Don't let up! You've got to hold out until everyone's evacuated!
[20:47] ---
    Right...
[21:04] ---
    Joey!
[21:06] ---
    Everyone's evacuated!
[21:08] ---
    Right!
[21:09] ---
    Heroman, move away from the sphere!
[21:30] ---
    What is that white thing?
[21:33] ---
    Do they actually possess a power that can oppose us?
[21:48] ---
    Good going, Joey!
[21:50] ---
    No, it's not over.
[21:52] ---
    If we don't do something about that sphere...
[21:57] ---
    Joey.
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    No way! Could that... Could that be?
[23:56] ---
    Thanks to Heroman's actions, the people of the city evacuated safely.
[23:59] ---
    But the Skrugg do not rest, and intensify their attacks.
[24:04] ---
    Joey and the others head to a battlefield with no breakthrough in sight.
[24:07] ---
    And what stands before their eyes are new assassins.
[24:11] ---
    Next time on Heroman Episode #5: Assassins!
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[01:31] ---
    Don't let up! You've got to hold
    out until everyone's evacuated!
[01:36] ---
    Right...
[01:46] ---
    Joey!
[01:48] ---
    Everyone's evacuated!
[01:55] ---
    Do they actually possess a
    power that can oppose us?
[02:01] ---
    In that case...
[02:22] ---
    Heroman, let's go!
[02:25] ---
    Wait, Joey.
[02:28] ---
    Do you have a plan?
[02:30] ---
    A plan?
[02:31] ---
    If not, then we need to think one up.
[02:36] ---
    What are you talking about, Professor?
[02:37] ---
    You can't destroy those
    spheres with normal attacks.
[02:41] ---
    Even Heroman's repeated attacks
    didn't even scratch it!
[02:45] ---
    You should know that better than anyone.
[02:48] ---
    Well, yeah, but...
[02:51] ---
    And Heroman's taken considerable damage.
[02:54] ---
    I'm also worried about your stamina.
[02:57] ---
    I'm not saying to do nothing.
[03:00] ---
    We'll return for now, and
    think up a new plan!
[03:03] ---
    That's for the best.
[03:12] ---
    Okay?
[03:16] ---
    Right...
[03:23] ---
    Why those...
[03:26] ---
    Hey, Will...
[03:28] ---
    What?
[03:30] ---
    I wonder what's gonna happen to us...
[03:34] ---
    Who knows?
[03:36] ---
    Maybe they'll put us on trial or something?
[03:40] ---
    I wonder if we can bribe them to get away?
[03:43] ---
    I seriously doubt that.
[03:46] ---
    Then we'll be executed?
[03:48] ---
    No, we won't.
[03:50] ---
    If they wanted to do that, we
    wouldn't have been locked up in here.
[03:54] ---
    Then, what'll happen to us?
[03:56] ---
    How the hell should I know?
[04:04] ---
    I'm never going to give up!
[04:07] ---
    I'm going home, alive!
[04:09] ---
    It's no use...
[04:21] ---
    To think this planet hid an enemy with
    this level of combat ability.
[04:27] ---
    However there only seems to be a single one.
[04:30] ---
    It does not surpass our own attack strength.
[04:34] ---
    So there is only one thing to do.
[04:43] ---
    Just give up already.
[04:45] ---
    There's no way we can get out that way.
[04:49] ---
    Damn it!
[04:51] ---
    There has to be a way!
[04:54] ---
    There has to be...
[05:01] ---
    Nick!
[05:04] ---
    Come!
[05:05] ---
    You as well.
[05:16] ---
    Um... We didn't come here to rebel
    against you at all, really!
[05:21] ---
    Nick...
[05:22] ---
    What's going to happen to us?
[05:25] ---
    Anything you could tell us
    would be just great...
[05:28] ---
    Nick!
[05:29] ---
    What else can I do?
[05:31] ---
    This is all your fault anyway, Will.
[05:33] ---
    What?
[05:34] ---
    Silence!
[05:35] ---
    Okay! Sorry!
[05:37] ---
    I'll be quiet now!
[06:33] ---
    Is Heroman okay?
[06:36] ---
    I think so.
[06:37] ---
    I replaced the broken parts.
[06:39] ---
    But, how are you, Joey?
[06:43] ---
    I'm fine.
[06:45] ---
    It's strange... When Heroman
    got big I felt really tired.
[06:50] ---
    But I'm fine now.
[06:53] ---
    Anyway, Professor, what should we do now?
[06:56] ---
    The power's out so we can't do anything.
[06:59] ---
    Worry not!
[07:00] ---
    I thought something like this might happen,
    so I installed a personal power generator.
[07:05] ---
    But, Joey... Are you sure
    you're feeling okay?
[07:09] ---
    Yes! Just spiffy!
[07:11] ---
    I'm glad to hear it!
[07:21] ---
    A bicycle?
[07:23] ---
    So, pedal it for me.
[07:31] ---
    That's good, Joey. Keep going like that.
[07:35] ---
    R-Right...
[07:37] ---
    Professor, what are you planning on doing?
[07:40] ---
    I'm going to come up with a plan.
[07:42] ---
    In order to do that, you can't neglect
    information gathering and analysis!
[07:45] ---
    Well, I guess so.
[07:48] ---
    But what are you doing, specifically?
[07:58] ---
    First up is hacking and
    communications interception!
[08:05] ---
    This is the 21st armored division reporting.
[08:08] ---
    We are currently deployed to
    the suburbs of Center City.
[08:11] ---
    We are guiding evacuees, and have
    taken a defensive position.
[08:14] ---
    We have nothing else to report at this time.
[08:16] ---
    What's that?
[08:29] ---
    Communications have ceased
    from the seventh squad!
[08:31] ---
    Secure the citizens' evacuation routes!
[08:33] ---
    Prepare for battle!
[08:34] ---
    Prepare to fire...
[08:35] ---
    Fire!
[09:06] ---
    It's no use...
[09:08] ---
    Not even a scratch!
[09:09] ---
    Don't give up!
[09:11] ---
    Keep up the attack!
[09:12] ---
    It's coming... All hands, retreat!
[09:33] ---
    What's going on, Professor?
[09:34] ---
    Please don't rush me.
[09:36] ---
    I need more information!
[09:42] ---
    I am now at the suburbs of Center City!
[09:46] ---
    Just look at this scene!
[09:49] ---
    The five giant spheres that
    have been released
[09:54] ---
    are each progressing straight ahead in one
    direction, oblivious to the military's attacks.
[09:59] ---
    The Skrugg's UFO appeared suddenly from the
    sky and began to attack Center City...
[10:04] ---
    What could be their purpose behind this?
[10:08] ---
    We're going to keep a close
    watch on their movements.
[10:11] ---
    We want everyone to see what's really happen-
[10:15] ---
    Verify that...
[10:18] ---
    Excuse us, but we've received some
    new information during the report.
[10:21] ---
    There are new developments at Center City.
[10:26] ---
    I'm reporting from on top of a
    building in front of the factory.
[10:28] ---
    Skrugg troops are emerging from the
    factory that the Skrugg have occupied.
[10:32] ---
    And in incredible numbers!
[10:33] ---
    I repeat: Skrugg soldiers are coming down
    from the factory one after another!
[10:42] ---
    The Skrugg are making another move.
[10:44] ---
    This is bad. What are they planning now?
[10:48] ---
    Um...
[10:54] ---
    I can't just stay here doing nothing!
[10:57] ---
    Joey...
[10:59] ---
    You...
[11:04] ---
    I'm going.
[11:05] ---
    We can't leave the Skrugg
    to do whatever they want!
[11:09] ---
    I'm coming too.
[11:10] ---
    I should at least be able to
    attract their attention.
[11:14] ---
    Sure!
[11:15] ---
    Thanks, Psy.
[11:18] ---
    Yes, it's exactly as you said.
[11:21] ---
    I wanted to come up with a plan to deal
    with those spheres if possible, but...
[11:32] ---
    A guitar?
[11:33] ---
    What's that supposed to be for, Professor?
[11:35] ---
    You're going to stop them with rock 'n' roll?
[11:38] ---
    It's true that this is nothing but a
    guitar, but there's a secret hidden here.
[11:43] ---
    It's just a normal speaker, right?
[11:45] ---
    No, no... That's not all.
[11:48] ---
    In here is the amplification device that
    was installed in that weapon of theirs.
[11:53] ---
    What are you saying?
[11:55] ---
    Think back...
[11:58] ---
    Their weapon was able to create that
    powerful an air vortex from absolutely nothing!
[12:04] ---
    Using that amplification
    device, I successfully...
[12:11] ---
    ...amplified sound!
[12:13] ---
    That's... very impressive...
[12:15] ---
    But what's the point to go
    through all the trouble?
[12:19] ---
    A reasonable question.
[12:21] ---
    But there is a very good reason, you see.
[12:27] ---
    It is merely conjecture, yes,
[12:29] ---
    but they may communicate among themselves
    using high-frequency sound waves.
[12:34] ---
    This is also merely conjecture,
[12:36] ---
    but their hearing may also be able to detect
    sound from a much wider range than humans.
[12:41] ---
    That's what I've surmised!
[12:43] ---
    So, what does it mean?
[12:46] ---
    If you're going up against the Skrugg, this
    guitar is more of a super powerful weapon...
[12:53] ---
    ...than missiles or cannons!
[13:01] ---
    Okay? I'm going to continue
    analyzing those spheres.
[13:04] ---
    Be careful out there.
[13:07] ---
    I don't like this.
[13:08] ---
    Yeah...
[13:10] ---
    But...
[13:13] ---
    We gotta do what we gotta do.
[13:15] ---
    Yeah.
[13:52] ---
    Ready, Joey?
[13:53] ---
    We're gonna play hit and away.
[13:56] ---
    We can't go up head-to-head
    against those kind of numbers.
[13:59] ---
    Once you beat the enemy, hide
    yourself and move on.
[14:02] ---
    We can't let them get a bead on our location.
[14:05] ---
    That way we're sure to thin
    out their numbers.
[14:08] ---
    Got it?
[14:16] ---
    I'll try!
[14:19] ---
    Let's go.
[14:49] ---
    It's him!
[14:51] ---
    Over here!
[14:58] ---
    Cross my heart and hope...
[15:09] ---
    Oh? That's surprising.
[15:13] ---
    The professor's invention actually worked!
[15:16] ---
    Joey!
[15:29] ---
    Hostilities have broken out.
[15:31] ---
    It seems to be that white one of interest.
[15:33] ---
    Good. Dispatch reinforcements.
[15:36] ---
    We'll finish this right at once.
[15:38] ---
    Display the location.
[15:40] ---
    About that...
[15:41] ---
    What is the matter?
[15:44] ---
    It seems they are using the wrecked buildings
[15:46] ---
    and passageways we are not aware
    of to keep on the move.
[15:50] ---
    We cannot pinpoint the
    enemy's precise location.
[15:53] ---
    What is this?
[15:55] ---
    Our losses are already greater than 14.
[16:00] ---
    Using the terrain to your
    advantage? What impudence!
[16:03] ---
    In that case, it's an eye for an eye!
[16:20] ---
    Lina!
[16:23] ---
    Joey!
[16:26] ---
    What are you doing around here?
[16:29] ---
    It's dangerous, you have to hurry and escape!
[16:32] ---
    My brother's gone, so I...
[16:38] ---
    Anyway, hide yourself here.
[16:41] ---
    I'll come and pick you up
    after the battle's over.
[16:44] ---
    No!
[16:46] ---
    Please, Joey...
[16:48] ---
    Take me along!
[16:50] ---
    W-Why?
[16:52] ---
    It'll be dangerous no matter where I go.
[16:55] ---
    So staying next to you and Heroman
    is the safest place, right?
[16:59] ---
    But...
[17:01] ---
    I want to search for my
    brother, no matter what!
[17:04] ---
    So...
[17:06] ---
    Please!
[17:11] ---
    You just can't.
[17:13] ---
    You'll be in danger.
[17:15] ---
    If I am, then protect me, okay?
[17:21] ---
    Huh? Where's Joey?
[17:24] ---
    Hey Joey, what are you...
[17:27] ---
    Lina?
[17:28] ---
    Oh, you're here too, Psy?
[17:30] ---
    I'm so happy!
[17:31] ---
    I'm getting more confident by the second.
[17:33] ---
    Now, let's go.
[17:51] ---
    Let's go.
[17:57] ---
    Heroman...
[18:01] ---
    Attack!
[18:13] ---
    That's...
[18:15] ---
    ...a different kind of Skrugg than before.
[18:17] ---
    Joey!
[18:19] ---
    Over here!
[18:21] ---
    Don't face them all at once!
[18:23] ---
    Heroman!
[18:46] ---
    What's the matter, Joey?
[18:49] ---
    Oh, it's nothing.
[18:51] ---
    Good, then let's try this again!
[19:08] ---
    But, how?
[19:15] ---
    Lina, Psy!
[19:17] ---
    Shoot, there goes our escape route!
[19:33] ---
    I knew it... It's different than
    the enemies from before.
[19:57] ---
    Heroman...
[20:00] ---
    Attack!
[20:23] ---
    Joey, behind you!
[20:35] ---
    Leave this one to me!
[20:37] ---
    You guys bust up that one!
[20:39] ---
    Right!
[20:41] ---
    Heroman...
[20:43] ---
    Blast!
[21:01] ---
    It's planning on taking it?
[21:08] ---
    Heroman...
[21:10] ---
    Finish!
[21:33] ---
    It actually blocked...
[21:36] ---
    ...Heroman's attack...
[21:53] ---
    W-What the hell is this?
[22:12] ---
    Brother?!
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    But... we still have to fight!
[23:55] ---
    The identity of the assassins are Lina's
    brother Will and his best friend Nick.
[23:59] ---
    Joey and the others retreat, able to do
    nothing against their modified bodies.
[24:04] ---
    Joey cannot hide his trembling,
[24:06] ---
    but in front of the Skrugg's unrelenting
    invasion they are forced to make a new decision.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman Episode #6: Backlash!

[01:40] ---
    Why?
[01:41] ---
    What's this mean?
[01:43] ---
    Why has Will turned into an enemy?
[01:46] ---
    Which means that one is... Nick?
[01:54] ---
    Brother!
[01:56] ---
    Brother!
[02:02] ---
    Brother!
[02:16] ---
    Li...na...
[02:26] ---
    Will!
[02:27] ---
    Brother!
[02:29] ---
    You idiot, don't!
[02:30] ---
    Lina!
[02:31] ---
    Let go of me!
[02:32] ---
    My brother... He's...
[02:40] ---
    Joey!
[02:43] ---
    We're gettin' outta here. Now's our chance.
[02:45] ---
    No! We can't leave him!
[02:48] ---
    We're surrounded!
[02:49] ---
    If we don't escape now we're in trouble!
[02:51] ---
    No!
[03:01] ---
    Brother...
[03:07] ---
    Come with me!
[03:10] ---
    Joey!
[03:17] ---
    Ah, well...
[03:52] ---
    Test subject 01 has malfunctioned.
[03:55] ---
    Recall him and 02 immediately.
[03:57] ---
    What are we to do with the remainders?
[04:00] ---
    They have the territorial advantage.
[04:02] ---
    We will regroup and rethink our strategy.
[04:05] ---
    Until then, intensify our surveillance.
[04:08] ---
    Yes, sir.
[04:36] ---
    Lina.
[04:47] ---
    Hey!
[04:50] ---
    Everyone!
[04:53] ---
    Professor!
[04:54] ---
    This is bad!
[04:56] ---
    Real bad, everyone!
[05:02] ---
    Same for us...
[05:29] ---
    All shots were a direct hit...
[05:32] ---
    No damage.
[05:33] ---
    Not even a scratch...
[05:35] ---
    Is there some reaction?
[05:37] ---
    No reaction.
[05:38] ---
    The target is simply proceeding
    in a direct line.
[05:41] ---
    Okay. Analysis team, head in front!
[05:47] ---
    Crow 01, we will now begin analysis.
[05:59] ---
    Unable to identify its composition.
[06:01] ---
    Unable to identify its internal structure.
[06:05] ---
    It's no use. I can't understand a thing.
[06:07] ---
    Hey, look...
[06:09] ---
    What's that?
[06:24] ---
    Oh, I see.
[06:26] ---
    But something was weird!
[06:31] ---
    I think he was only being
    manipulated by them!
[06:35] ---
    And that's not all, remember?
[06:37] ---
    He managed to go toe-to-toe with Heroman!
[06:40] ---
    They must have done something to his body.
[06:43] ---
    Oh, no!
[06:50] ---
    Okay, I basically get the picture.
[06:53] ---
    You do?
[06:55] ---
    Then how can you just be sitting there?
[06:58] ---
    If getting upset would help
    solve this, I'd do it.
[07:06] ---
    In order to deal with Will, we'll need
    to come up with some countermeasure.
[07:10] ---
    What kind of countermeasure?
[07:12] ---
    Uh, I don't know yet...
[07:15] ---
    Look, Joey...
[07:16] ---
    But!
[07:17] ---
    Anyway, listen to me.
[07:19] ---
    Anyway nothing! Will's in trouble!
[07:21] ---
    Joey, we've got a ton of
    problems at once here!
[07:23] ---
    Try and stay a little calm, okay?
[07:27] ---
    Okay...
[07:28] ---
    It's gotten cold...
[07:33] ---
    But it tastes good.
[07:36] ---
    Thank you, Professor.
[07:38] ---
    I'm okay, Joey.
[07:47] ---
    Will you listen to what I have to say?
[07:49] ---
    Yes.
[07:51] ---
    While you were fighting I approached
    the issue at various different angles,
[07:55] ---
    and at the end of my investigation
    I've determined something really bad!
[07:59] ---
    Really bad?
[08:01] ---
    What could that be?
[08:04] ---
    It's about those spheres...
[08:08] ---
    Um...
[08:11] ---
    You sure I don't need to pedal?
[08:14] ---
    Yeah. I collected some batteries I can use.
[08:24] ---
    Currently the five giant spheres that
    were sent forth from the Skrugg's saucer
[08:28] ---
    are each proceeding along at
    a speed of 25 miles per hour.
[08:32] ---
    Of the five, two of them
    disappeared toward the ocean,
[08:35] ---
    however the other three are moving
    within the American continent.
[08:38] ---
    The spheres are not affected
    by our attacks at all.
[08:42] ---
    We also have been unable to identify the
    construction or internal structure.
[08:46] ---
    Of the three, one has avoided major population
    centers and will soon leave our borders.
[08:54] ---
    One will shortly enter the ocean.
[08:58] ---
    However the last one is the problem.
[09:05] ---
    Listen up. The issue is these spheres
    moving in perfectly straight lines.
[09:10] ---
    What's the meaning of it?
[09:12] ---
    At first glance it seems
    like they're just rolling,
[09:15] ---
    but each of the five spheres
    has its own destination.
[09:19] ---
    Really?
[09:20] ---
    Take a look.
[09:22] ---
    These are the paths of the five spheres
    as they move in straight lines.
[09:33] ---
    That's...
[09:34] ---
    Where?
[09:36] ---
    Washington D.C. 1600 Pennsylvania Ave...
[09:41] ---
    The White House!
[09:43] ---
    That sphere is heading here?
[09:46] ---
    Yes. There is no mistake.
[09:51] ---
    If we extend the paths
    of the other spheres...
[09:55] ---
    Europe,
[09:57] ---
    Oceania,
[10:00] ---
    Africa,
[10:02] ---
    and Asia...
[10:04] ---
    They'll reach each of the five continents.
[10:06] ---
    If we leave them alone, then
    something really bad is...
[10:08] ---
    This is bad!
[10:09] ---
    See? I told you!
[10:13] ---
    But this is a seriously dire situation.
[10:16] ---
    They're not just attacking at random.
[10:21] ---
    They've done plenty of
    research on us humans,
[10:24] ---
    and planned out their
    method of attack!
[10:35] ---
    It is currently heading toward an area
    of relatively low population density.
[10:44] ---
    Mr. President?
[10:47] ---
    Are you...
[10:51] ---
    ...suggesting we use nuclear weapons?
[10:56] ---
    We cannot ignore the saucer
    in Center City either.
[11:00] ---
    When you think about the future, there
    is only one decision to make...
[11:04] ---
    Wait!
[11:05] ---
    How much time do I have until the launch?
[11:08] ---
    It's currently 11 AM.
[11:12] ---
    You have 9 more hours.
[11:40] ---
    After looking at the recording,
[11:42] ---
    it seems he received some external
    shock to his memory storage area.
[11:47] ---
    Therefore the primary factor was the damage
    done by the enemy to the controller.
[11:52] ---
    It would cause such confusion.
[12:02] ---
    Can you repair him?
[12:04] ---
    Of course.
[12:05] ---
    Although it will take
    some time to perfect it.
[12:09] ---
    Make haste.
[12:11] ---
    It looks like the white one and the test
    subject have some connection to each other.
[12:26] ---
    Could things get any worse?
[12:28] ---
    But even Heroman couldn't fight those
    spheres in five places at once.
[12:35] ---
    And anyway, we haven't chased off
    the Skrugg here in the city.
[12:40] ---
    We can't just ignore the White House!
[12:43] ---
    So you don't care what
    happens to Center City?
[12:46] ---
    Well, I don't like it obviously...
[12:48] ---
    Calm down, you two.
[12:50] ---
    Anyway, let's gather information.
[12:53] ---
    So that we know what we
    should be doing first!
[13:07] ---
    Why do they just go straight?
[13:11] ---
    I wonder why they can only go straight?
[13:14] ---
    Because they don't need to turn?
[13:17] ---
    But...
[13:17] ---
    Wait, what are you trying to say?
[13:21] ---
    When fighting it I got this weird feeling.
[13:25] ---
    Like it didn't even notice
    Heroman being there.
[13:29] ---
    Like it couldn't do anything
    but try to move forward.
[13:34] ---
    Maybe those spheres don't have any drivers!
[13:37] ---
    That's it!
[13:41] ---
    I see! So that's what it is!
[13:45] ---
    You figured something out?
[13:47] ---
    All five spheres are going perfectly
    straight at the same speed!
[13:51] ---
    And the timing of those spikes...
[13:56] ---
    That's...
[13:58] ---
    ...exactly at the same time!
[14:00] ---
    Exactly!
[14:02] ---
    Those spheres are clearly unmanned weapons!
[14:05] ---
    Which means they're being
    controlled from the spaceship.
[14:10] ---
    And therefore, if we can do
    something about that UFO...
[14:12] ---
    Exactly!
[14:14] ---
    ...we can stop the spheres!
[14:16] ---
    And that's where my brother and Nick are!
[14:19] ---
    Lina!
[14:21] ---
    That's right, isn't it?
[14:22] ---
    Yeah, true...
[14:26] ---
    It's easy to say, but...
[14:30] ---
    Give me a bit more time.
[14:34] ---
    Heroman and us three have
    got to do something.
[14:39] ---
    No!
[14:41] ---
    Us four!
[14:46] ---
    Lina!
[14:48] ---
    I know it's dangerous, but
    it's my problem, too!
[14:52] ---
    Please, let me help!
[15:03] ---
    It'd be our pleasure.
[15:04] ---
    We need all the help we can get, after all.
[15:08] ---
    Professor!
[15:08] ---
    Professor Denton!
[15:10] ---
    I'll need some time to prepare.
[15:13] ---
    And you two need your rest.
[15:18] ---
    Yeah... How many days has it been
    since I got some real sleep?
[15:23] ---
    I think we'll head out tonight.
[16:20] ---
    We gotta do this...
[16:24] ---
    You're really strong, Lina.
[16:26] ---
    All the other people have
    long evacuated the city.
[16:30] ---
    I'm scared too, you know.
[16:32] ---
    And compared to you, Joey,
    I'm not doing much.
[16:37] ---
    No, I'm not really...
[16:42] ---
    Why'd all this happen, I wonder?
[16:46] ---
    Just a bit before we were
    going to school like normal,
[16:49] ---
    I was going to cheerleader practice like
    normal, playing with my friends like normal...
[17:00] ---
    Brother...
[17:03] ---
    Lina...
[17:05] ---
    I'll definitely... I'll definitely bring Will...
[17:13] ---
    They found us!
[17:22] ---
    Joey!
[17:27] ---
    Run for it!
[17:47] ---
    Heroman!
[18:02] ---
    Lina, hide!
[18:04] ---
    Joey!
[18:05] ---
    I have to fight, too!
[18:22] ---
    Heroman!
[18:38] ---
    Heroman!
[18:53] ---
    Heroman...
[18:55] ---
    Blast!
[19:59] ---
    We've got to tell the Professor and
    Psy that we've been found, quick!
[20:02] ---
    Let's go back, Heroman!
[20:04] ---
    Heroman!
[20:08] ---
    Joey!
[20:20] ---
    Now that they know we're here,
    there's no turning back!
[20:28] ---
    Ready, everyone?
[20:35] ---
    We're off!
[21:06] ---
    What is it?
[21:07] ---
    Mr. President.
[21:08] ---
    General Watkins would like
    to meet with you urgently.
[21:12] ---
    Watkins?
[21:14] ---
    Let him in.
[21:20] ---
    Excuse me, Sir.
[21:21] ---
    What is it, Watkins?
[21:24] ---
    I hope you've found some method
    other than using nuclear weapons.
[21:28] ---
    About that...
[21:30] ---
    How do you do, Mr. President?
[21:34] ---
    I have a suggestion about
    this problem you face.
[21:39] ---
    So I asked the general to bring me here.
[21:43] ---
    Who are you?
[21:45] ---
    Oh, I apologize for the late introduction.
[21:49] ---
    My name is Minami.
[21:52] ---
    Dr. Minami.
    I am most humbled to make your acquaintance.
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    Don't do it, Nick! You're wrong!
    You're completely wrong!
[23:56] ---
    To stop the five spheres each heading
    to invade a different continent,
[24:00] ---
    and in order to rescue Will and Nick, Joey
    and company infiltrate enemy territory.
[24:06] ---
    But what awaits them there
    is an all too sad reality.
[24:12] ---
    Next time Heroman Episode #7: Resistance.
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[02:19] ---
    Will...
[02:24] ---
    Will...
[02:26] ---
    Brother...
[03:16] ---
    That's toward my house!
[03:19] ---
    This ain't no joke! At this
    rate my house is a goner, too!
[03:22] ---
    What the hell is the government doing?
[03:25] ---
    Let me introduce you, Mr. President.
[03:27] ---
    He is a director at Generas Industries
    in charge of weapons development.
[03:34] ---
    Doctor Minami.
[03:36] ---
    Generas, you say?
[03:38] ---
    Correct.
[03:39] ---
    He is currently in charge of a project
    developing weaponry for the army.
[03:44] ---
    I see. I understand who you are now, Dr. Minami.
[03:49] ---
    Let's hear what you have to say.
[03:51] ---
    I will cut to the chase, Mr. President.
[03:57] ---
    I want you to call off the nuclear strike!
[04:15] ---
    As we figured, it won't be so
    easy to get close to their base.
[04:25] ---
    I wonder if we can keep going
    without being discovered?
[04:28] ---
    How's it going, Professor?
[04:30] ---
    It's definitely impossible if
    you approach it normally...
[04:33] ---
    Then, wait a second! What are we...
[04:38] ---
    Worry not! That's why I took the
    time to come up with a new plan!
[04:42] ---
    "Be Prepared," or so they say.
[04:46] ---
    Um... Hmm, was this the right way?
[04:50] ---
    I am so not reassured...
[04:53] ---
    I'm sure this is it! Over here.
[04:59] ---
    A dead-end.
[05:01] ---
    I knew it.
[05:03] ---
    Well, this is the Professor we're talking about.
[05:05] ---
    No. This is right.
[05:07] ---
    What are you planning on doing?
[05:13] ---
    Here it is!
[05:16] ---
    First the subways, and now the sewer system!
[05:18] ---
    Using these would should be
    able to approach their base
[05:21] ---
    without encountering the enemy!
[05:29] ---
    Thanks for waiting.
[05:31] ---
    Now, shall we?
[05:41] ---
    They have demonstrated
    some impressive abilities.
[05:44] ---
    It is not so uncommon for developing planets.
[05:48] ---
    Although it is clear they
    are a barbaric species...
[05:53] ---
    Is that what is making them so hard to control?
[05:56] ---
    Yes. These subjects are
    causing us much difficulty
[05:59] ---
    due to the varied emotions
    that coexist within them.
[06:15] ---
    Test Subjects 01 and 02, can you hear me?
[06:19] ---
    Yes, Lord Kogorr...
[06:21] ---
    I can hear you well, my Lord!
[06:24] ---
    How do you feel?
[06:28] ---
    Incredible!
[06:31] ---
    Oh? Incredible you say?
[06:32] ---
    Yes! I can feel power
    flowing throughout my body!
[06:36] ---
    I want to fight soon!
[06:38] ---
    Don't be hasty.
[06:40] ---
    When they show themselves, you
    can go at them all you want.
[06:44] ---
    I thank you for the opportunity, Lord Kogorr!
[06:48] ---
    So what are you talking about, Dr... um...
[06:53] ---
    Minami.
[06:54] ---
    Exactly what I said, Mr. President.
[06:58] ---
    Do you even understand what that would mean?
[07:02] ---
    Of course.
[07:03] ---
    Then do you realize the number of victims
    we'll have if we don't use a nuclear strike?
[07:10] ---
    But a pittance!
[07:11] ---
    This is no laughing matter!
[07:13] ---
    It's my duty to protect the homeland!
[07:16] ---
    Do you think I can just abandon
    the citizens in a time of crisis?
[07:21] ---
    And not just that!
[07:23] ---
    The sphere is heading for the White House!
[07:27] ---
    The White House? Perfect.
[07:30] ---
    Let's give it that much.
[07:33] ---
    You can rebuild as many
    White Houses as you want,
[07:37] ---
    but there's only five of those
    weapons in the entire world!
[07:40] ---
    Are you saying that sphere is more
    important than the White House?
[07:43] ---
    Please think about this logically.
[07:46] ---
    The balance of power in the world
    will be drastically altered
[07:49] ---
    depending on what happens
    to those spheres.
[07:52] ---
    Haven't you considered what might happen
[07:54] ---
    if another country obtained one
    while the United States did not?
[07:59] ---
    The United States of America must
    always remain number one in the world!
[08:04] ---
    Isn't that right?
[08:07] ---
    It's up to you whether to
    think of this as a crisis,
[08:11] ---
    or an opportunity...
[08:13] ---
    Watch yourself!
[08:15] ---
    Do you have some sort of plan?
[08:17] ---
    I've been waiting for you to
    say those words, Mr. President!
[08:37] ---
    Professor...
[08:39] ---
    You've prepared for something like this,
    right? You took this into account, right?
[08:47] ---
    Joey...
[08:48] ---
    This is a job for Heroman!
[08:57] ---
    Okay? Do it nice and slow, and
    try not to make much noise...
[09:01] ---
    Right.
[09:02] ---
    Heroman... Attack.
[09:18] ---
    I wonder if that's okay?
[09:23] ---
    Doesn't look like we've been discovered.
[09:25] ---
    Let's move on.
[09:45] ---
    There's a light...
[09:47] ---
    Quiet!
[09:48] ---
    Let's be careful from here on.
[09:58] ---
    Professor, come here!
[10:01] ---
    I said to be quiet!
[10:04] ---
    This is...
[10:25] ---
    Okay, let's review.
[10:27] ---
    We have three goals.
[10:29] ---
    First, destroy the sphere control system.
[10:32] ---
    Second, rescue Will and Nick.
[10:34] ---
    And finally, destroy this factory.
[10:37] ---
    It bears repeating, but I don't think we
    should force trying to accomplish all three.
[10:43] ---
    Just completing one would be excellent.
[10:47] ---
    However, there is one thing
    I hope you understand.
[10:51] ---
    There isn't much time until the
    sphere reaches the White House.
[10:56] ---
    So our first objective should be
    to destroy the sphere's control system.
[11:03] ---
    In other words, this is our only chance.
[11:06] ---
    Exactly.
[11:08] ---
    We'll use a diversion.
[11:10] ---
    While Joey and Heroman cause a
    commotion inside the factory,
[11:14] ---
    we'll head to the controls
    without drawing attention.
[11:18] ---
    Okay?
[11:19] ---
    Right.
[11:19] ---
    Got it.
[11:21] ---
    Oh, but before that...
[11:24] ---
    Walkie-talkies.
[11:26] ---
    If something happens, contact us immediately.
[11:29] ---
    Roger!
[11:31] ---
    All right, here we go.
[11:33] ---
    Let's get this party started!
[11:37] ---
    Are you okay?
[11:38] ---
    Hold on tight, got it?
[11:50] ---
    Good.
[11:52] ---
    We'll head that way.
[11:54] ---
    Joey... You head up.
[11:56] ---
    Right! Heroman, this way!
[11:59] ---
    See you later, Joey.
[12:01] ---
    You guys be careful!
[12:03] ---
    Same to you!
[12:05] ---
    Lina, hurry up!
[12:11] ---
    Lina, where are you going?
[12:13] ---
    I'm going with Joey!
[12:15] ---
    Why?
[12:17] ---
    Lina, wait! Lina!
[12:21] ---
    Lina?
[12:23] ---
    I'm sure my brother and Nick will come for you!
[12:32] ---
    Please let me come with you!
[12:34] ---
    Okay.
[12:39] ---
    What are we going to do?
[12:42] ---
    If we're discovered then
    the plan's out the window.
[12:45] ---
    Let's leave this to Joey.
[12:47] ---
    Got you.
[12:51] ---
    Women...
[12:56] ---
    Lord Kogorr, the white one has appeared.
[12:59] ---
    Its location?
[13:01] ---
    Inside the factory. It's in the underground.
[13:05] ---
    Here?
[13:07] ---
    Correct!
[13:08] ---
    To think they would actually
    invade our base themselves.
[13:14] ---
    Teach them how mistaken they are!
[13:22] ---
    It's them!
[13:33] ---
    Heroman...
[13:36] ---
    Attack!
[13:49] ---
    Okay, let's go!
[14:01] ---
    Will!
[14:02] ---
    Let's go, 02.
[14:04] ---
    I'll handle the white one.
[14:07] ---
    You get them.
[14:12] ---
    Will, Nick!
[14:21] ---
    Don't, Heroman!
[14:23] ---
    Don't hurt those two!
[14:30] ---
    Stop it, you two!
[14:31] ---
    Please!
[14:39] ---
    Professor Denton!
[14:41] ---
    Joey? What's the matter?
[14:44] ---
    Those two have shown up!
[14:46] ---
    Really? Then follow the plan!
[14:49] ---
    Got it, Joey?
[14:50] ---
    Right!
[14:52] ---
    Let's go, Lina.
[14:54] ---
    What?
[14:55] ---
    The Professor said that Will and
    Nick are being mind-controlled.
[14:59] ---
    This is to break their control.
[15:02] ---
    They're being controlled by their helmets.
[15:05] ---
    You saw it too, Lina.
[15:06] ---
    We're pretending to run away
    now to get an opportunity!
[15:12] ---
    I get it.
[15:24] ---
    Heroman!
[15:37] ---
    Joey! It looks like we can get through here.
[15:55] ---
    They're coming after us!
[15:58] ---
    Over here!
[16:06] ---
    This is...
[16:07] ---
    Joey, look!
[16:11] ---
    Is this where the spheres are made?
[16:18] ---
    Lina, you hide over there!
[16:20] ---
    Okay.
[16:34] ---
    The white one's friend has such power as well...
[16:39] ---
    But in the end you are still no match for us!
[17:18] ---
    This is it for you!
[17:22] ---
    Stop it!
[17:31] ---
    Please, Will! Go... Go back to normal!
[17:38] ---
    Don't make Lina sad!
[17:41] ---
    Please!
[17:43] ---
    Will!
[17:52] ---
    Brother, Brother!
[17:54] ---
    Heroman!
[17:56] ---
    Get the helmet!
[18:01] ---
    Brother...
[18:04] ---
    Please, enough!
[18:06] ---
    I'm begging you, come to your senses!
[18:11] ---
    Brother! Brother...
[18:19] ---
    Brother!
[18:23] ---
    Nick, everything's okay now. Snap out of it!
[18:29] ---
    I-I'm fine...
[18:31] ---
    No problems... at all!
[18:41] ---
    Joey!
[18:45] ---
    Joey, I remember now!
[18:48] ---
    Your name is Joey!
[18:51] ---
    And my name is Nick!
[18:53] ---
    Nick... Why?
[18:55] ---
    Why?
[18:56] ---
    You two are just being
    manipulated by the Skrugg!
[18:59] ---
    So...
[19:00] ---
    What are you talking about, Joey?
[19:03] ---
    I've gotten power!
[19:05] ---
    I'm finally free!
[19:10] ---
    I've always sucked up to someone...
[19:14] ---
    and when other people noticed me
    I'd get scared for some reason!
[19:19] ---
    But I don't need to worry about that anymore!
[19:22] ---
    Do you understand why?
[19:25] ---
    It's power!
[19:26] ---
    Power!
[19:28] ---
    Power!
[19:29] ---
    As long as I have power I can do anything!
[19:32] ---
    I don't have to worry myself
    about that annoying crap anymore!
[19:36] ---
    I've finally become free!
[19:42] ---
    You're just like me, right?
[19:44] ---
    No!
[19:45] ---
    Sure, whatever.
[19:47] ---
    You should just disappear!
[19:50] ---
    Stop it!
[19:51] ---
    You do this, and that'll be it!
[19:54] ---
    Do you understand, Nick?
[19:56] ---
    Give this up?
[19:57] ---
    You're wrong!
[19:59] ---
    Stop this already, Nick!
[20:00] ---
    Shut up! Don't order me around!
[20:05] ---
    Lina!
[20:10] ---
    Will!
[20:11] ---
    Brother!
[20:12] ---
    Lina, you stay there.
[20:14] ---
    Open your eyes, Nick!
[20:16] ---
    Don't order me around!
[20:19] ---
    You still trying to be the boss?
[20:21] ---
    Nick, you're...
[20:23] ---
    You don't get it!
[20:25] ---
    We're not human anymore!
[20:27] ---
    We're Skrugg!
[20:32] ---
    What are you...
[20:33] ---
    Lina, stand back!
[20:43] ---
    Brother, are you okay?
[20:45] ---
    I'm sorry, Lina...
[20:48] ---
    But... I'm okay now.
[20:50] ---
    Thank goodness.
[20:52] ---
    Looks like the mind-control
    wasn't perfect after all.
[20:57] ---
    Y-Yes, it seems that way...
[21:03] ---
    I have no tolerance for failure.
[21:06] ---
    And that goes for all of you.
[21:09] ---
    Do it! Crush them all together!
[21:12] ---
    Yes, Lord!
[21:17] ---
    I won't let you anymore! I won't!
[21:20] ---
    You're nothing to me anymore!
[21:23] ---
    I'm not going to follow anyone's orders!
[21:27] ---
    And this all started with you, Will!
[21:30] ---
    This is your fault!
[21:32] ---
    This is all your fault!
[21:37] ---
    What? The roots?
[21:39] ---
    This is...
[21:45] ---
    The sphere!
[21:47] ---
    I'm free!
[21:49] ---
    I'm free!!
[21:53] ---
    Nick!
[21:54] ---
    Nick!
[21:55] ---
    It's dangerous here!
[22:11] ---
    Joey... What happened?
[22:14] ---
    Joey!!
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    That's... Kogorr?
[23:56] ---
    Joey's group has broken into
    the center of the factory.
[24:00] ---
    Then before them, at last, appears
    the leader of the Skrugg, Kogorr.
[24:06] ---
    And the curtain rises on this
    spectacular decisive battle.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #8: Combat.
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
[24:18] ---

[01:31] ---
    How do you feel?
[01:33] ---
    Incredible!
[01:40] ---
    This is it for you!
[01:43] ---
    You're wrong!
[01:44] ---
    Shut up! Don't order me around!
[01:53] ---
    Open your eyes, Nick!
[01:55] ---
    Lina, stand back!
[02:04] ---
    Will!
[02:05] ---
    This is your fault!
[02:07] ---
    This is all your fault!
[02:09] ---
    Nick!
[02:11] ---
    Nick!
[02:12] ---
    I'm free! I'm free!!
[02:41] ---
    Joey, Joey!
[02:44] ---
    Respond, Joey!
[02:48] ---
    Joey!
[02:49] ---
    What happened?
[02:51] ---
    Answer me!
[02:53] ---
    Joey!
[02:54] ---
    Joey!!
[02:58] ---
    What's going on?
[03:00] ---
    I don't know.
[03:01] ---
    All I'm sure of is that Joey isn't able
    to use his walkie-talkie right now.
[03:22] ---
    The sphere is currently moving in a
    straight line at 25 miles per hour.
[03:27] ---
    The evacuations of the
    residents are mostly complete,
[03:29] ---
    Aliens? That's like something
    out of a comic book.
[03:29] ---
    but nothing is left in the wake of
    the sphere's path of destruction!
[03:34] ---
    I can't believe they'd really
    show up in front of us like this.
[03:36] ---
    No complaining.
[03:38] ---
    It's not like it has anything
    to do with us, anyway.
[03:41] ---
    Oh, I wouldn't be so sure.
[03:44] ---
    D-Doctor!
[03:45] ---
    You're back?
[03:46] ---
    And wait, what do you mean?
[03:48] ---
    You see... We're going to stop that sphere!
[03:55] ---
    Something that big?
[03:56] ---
    But, how?
[03:59] ---
    I have a plan.
[04:01] ---
    But my true aim is the alien's technology!
[04:07] ---
    We are heading out in 30 minutes.
[04:10] ---
    We are scheduled to arrive in 3 hours.
[04:13] ---
    The mission is scheduled to
    start in 3 hours and 20 minutes.
[04:19] ---
    You heard her!
[04:20] ---
    Now, begin the preparations, comrades!
[04:32] ---
    This way.
[04:33] ---
    I think that's the entrance over there.
[04:35] ---
    Thanks to Joey, it doesn't look like
    there's anyone to get in our way.
[04:39] ---
    Joey...
[04:41] ---
    Don't worry!
[04:42] ---
    We're going to accomplish our mission.
[04:45] ---
    Got it!
[05:00] ---
    Report.
[05:02] ---
    The area we attacked has
    been completely destroyed.
[05:07] ---
    I can't believe something that
    small would put an end to them.
[05:11] ---
    Intruders detected!
[05:13] ---
    The white one?
[05:15] ---
    No... Well, he's white,
    but it's a different one.
[05:18] ---
    Two humans.
[05:20] ---
    Beginning attack.
[05:27] ---
    Damn it! Why'd they discover us all of a sudden?
[05:31] ---
    They must have some kind of
    high-tech security system!
[05:35] ---
    Really?
[05:37] ---
    'Cause I think it's that white coat of yours!
[05:44] ---
    Let's put the matter of
    my attire aside for now.
[05:48] ---
    Anyway...
[05:51] ---
    What's crucial here is getting
    out of this sticky situation.
[05:54] ---
    Yes. Please do tell me your thoughts on that.
[05:57] ---
    I can use this to slow 'em
    down, but it can't beat 'em!
[06:02] ---
    Oh, I accounted for that.
[06:04] ---
    With this.
[06:10] ---
    Psy, here we go!
[06:12] ---
    Okay!
[06:31] ---
    Wow!
[06:32] ---
    So this went according to plan, too?
[06:35] ---
    Yup! First we stop the enemy in their tracks...
[06:38] ---
    ...and run away while we have the chance!
[06:41] ---
    So that's your plan after all?
[07:08] ---
    Thanks.
[07:09] ---
    Lina! Will!
[07:23] ---
    Lina! Will!
[07:37] ---
    Nick...
[07:45] ---
    Heroman, over here!
[07:54] ---
    Lina!
[07:55] ---
    Will!
[07:57] ---
    J-Joey?
[07:59] ---
    You okay?
[08:01] ---
    Yeah... Fine.
[08:03] ---
    Lina's fine...
[08:05] ---
    Will!
[08:09] ---
    Brother?
[08:11] ---
    Joey!
[08:13] ---
    Lina...
[08:17] ---
    Brother!
[08:19] ---
    Lina.
[08:20] ---
    Take Will with you and escape from here.
[08:23] ---
    What about you, Joey?
[08:24] ---
    I'm heading toward Psy and the Professor.
[08:27] ---
    Then I'll go too!
[08:29] ---
    We can't leave Will behind.
[08:31] ---
    You need to protect Will now, Lina...
[08:36] ---
    Me, protect my brother?
[08:49] ---
    We're counting on you.
[08:52] ---
    Okay. I understand.
[08:58] ---
    You still haven't finished them off?
[09:01] ---
    They're just two humans!
[09:03] ---
    We're still attacking.
[09:05] ---
    There is no change in the situation.
[09:10] ---
    Enough!
[09:12] ---
    Yes, sir?
[09:13] ---
    I will finish them myself!
[09:19] ---
    Go!
[09:23] ---
    Take this! Denton Beam!
[09:38] ---
    What's that?
[10:01] ---
    That's...
[10:03] ---
    Just great... Another new face joins the party.
[10:11] ---
    Attention humans!
[10:13] ---
    I must teach you what it means to oppose us!
[10:18] ---
    Here I come!
[10:40] ---
    Are you seeing this?
[10:42] ---
    Yeah, I am...
[10:44] ---
    This guy's dangerous.
[10:46] ---
    Anyway, at times like this...
[10:49] ---
    We run!
[10:52] ---
    There is no escape.
[11:03] ---
    That's...
[11:10] ---
    It's only a matter of time!
[11:12] ---
    I know Joey will come.
[11:14] ---
    We have to hold out until then!
[11:18] ---
    Split up!
[11:19] ---
    When one of us is targeted,
    the other one provides cover!
[11:23] ---
    Aim to keep 25 meters apart!
[11:26] ---
    Got it!
[11:31] ---
    You impertinent little...
[11:39] ---
    Now!
[11:59] ---
    How'd you like that?
[12:05] ---
    I see...
[12:07] ---
    You amplified high frequency sound waves,
[12:09] ---
    in order to temporarily paralyze us.
[12:13] ---
    But if you actually thought an
    attack like that would defeat me...
[12:18] ---
    ...you would be sorely mistaken!
[12:28] ---
    Show yourself!
[12:29] ---
    Don't you care about what
    happens to your friend?
[12:32] ---
    Don't do it, Professor!
[12:34] ---
    He'll get you, too!
[12:36] ---
    Silence!
[12:38] ---
    Psy!
[12:40] ---
    No matter.
[12:41] ---
    I'll deal with you first.
[12:44] ---
    Wait! Please wait!
[12:52] ---
    I'll take his place!
[12:55] ---
    Release Psy!
[13:02] ---
    Fool.
[13:04] ---
    You're in no position to negotiate!
[13:06] ---
    All you have left is death!
[13:34] ---
    J-Joey...
[13:35] ---
    You okay?
[13:36] ---
    Yeah, this is nothin'...
[13:51] ---
    So, you show yourself...
[13:54] ---
    ...white one.
[14:13] ---
    Let me introduce myself!
[14:16] ---
    My name is Kogorr!
[14:18] ---
    And I am the ruler of this planet.
[14:21] ---
    Why?
[14:22] ---
    Why are you doing this?
[14:25] ---
    What do you want from us?
[14:27] ---
    You didn't just come here to
    fight with humanity, right?
[14:31] ---
    If your science is so far
    advanced compared to ours,
[14:34] ---
    you should be able to choose a different path!
[14:37] ---
    I didn't make contact with you so
    that something like this would happen!
[14:41] ---
    It was for cultural exchange!
[14:43] ---
    It was to bring peace to this world!
[14:46] ---
    How foolish.
[14:47] ---
    What?
[14:49] ---
    You slaughter livestock yourselves,
    and yet you have to ask?
[14:55] ---
    Are you calling us livestock?
[14:58] ---
    Don't, Psy!
[14:59] ---
    It seems it's no use no matter what we say.
[15:03] ---
    I'll do it!
[15:05] ---
    Stand back, you two!
[15:06] ---
    Be careful, Joey!
[15:08] ---
    He's a whole 'nother level from
    the guys we've faced so far.
[15:11] ---
    Right!
[15:13] ---
    That's right!
[15:14] ---
    Negotiating won't work with us Skrugg.
[15:17] ---
    You either submit, or die!
[15:32] ---
    His body...
[15:56] ---
    Fight me!
[15:57] ---
    Heroman...
[16:00] ---
    Attack!
[16:02] ---
    That power...
[16:04] ---
    Show it to me!
[16:13] ---
    There!
[16:15] ---
    Heroman!
[16:18] ---
    Heroman took damage!
[16:20] ---
    I see.
[16:21] ---
    You do have power, yes.
[16:30] ---
    But... How about your speed?
[16:40] ---
    Wings?
[16:41] ---
    I can't believe it, this guy's able to...
[16:43] ---
    That's right! Believe it!
[16:56] ---
    Heroman!
[17:04] ---
    This is bad.
[17:05] ---
    What?
[17:06] ---
    Well, there's that speed, of course.
[17:08] ---
    But do you realize what being able
    to fly freely like that means?
[17:15] ---
    It means he can attack the enemy from above!
[17:18] ---
    And most importantly, Heroman's attacks
    can't reach targets in the air!
[17:35] ---
    There!
[17:40] ---
    Heroman!
[17:44] ---
    Oh, no!
[17:45] ---
    Stand up, Heroman!
[17:48] ---
    Not so fast!
[17:50] ---
    Die!
[17:52] ---
    Heroman!
[17:52] ---
    Heroman!
[18:06] ---
    Joey!
[18:06] ---
    Joey!
[18:09] ---
    If you need speed...
[18:11] ---
    I'll handle that.
[18:12] ---
    So... Heroman...
[18:15] ---
    You'd better...
[18:16] ---
    ...not give up!
[18:32] ---
    So there's another little
    fellow flitting around...
[18:35] ---
    That won't change a thing!
[18:40] ---
    You're mine!
[19:12] ---
    He's fast...
[19:15] ---
    Out of my way!
[19:23] ---
    Excellent, Joey.
[19:24] ---
    That's the way to fight to compensate
    for Heroman's lack of speed.
[19:28] ---
    Yeah, no kidding...
[19:30] ---
    They fight together, compensating
    for each other's weaknesses.
[19:33] ---
    This is probably the form that Heroman
    and Joey should become in the future!
[19:39] ---
    What's this?
[19:43] ---
    Stay back!
[19:46] ---
    What the...
[19:52] ---
    This guy's fast!
[19:53] ---
    Now!
[19:56] ---
    Good one!
[19:59] ---
    Heroman...
[20:02] ---
    Blast!
[20:38] ---
    All right!
[20:39] ---
    You did it!
[20:57] ---
    Impressive teamwork.
[21:00] ---
    There's no way that Kogorr would
    come away unharmed from that hit.
[21:10] ---
    It's all...
[21:19] ---
    How dare you!
[21:21] ---
    You, damage me?
[21:24] ---
    I will not allow this to pass!
[21:43] ---
    You let your guard down, boy!
[22:08] ---
    Joey!!!
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    Heroman, you can't!
[23:54] ---
    If you let yourself be taken over by hatred...
[23:56] ---
    Joey is injured, and falls
    before Kogorr's fierce attack.
[23:59] ---
    Heroman seeing Joey in such a
    state shows an unexpected power.
[24:04] ---
    Power uncalled for... An evil
    energy clashes within him...
[24:08] ---
    And so, the battle heads to its conclusion.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #9: Alive.
[24:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
[24:18] ---

[01:54] ---
    Spectacular!
[01:55] ---
    Indeed, this is a splendid view!
[01:57] ---
    What are we going to do about that ball?
[02:00] ---
    Can the M1-R Prototype really stop it?
[02:03] ---
    I think it can.
[02:05] ---
    I never go into a battle
    with no chance of victory!
[02:10] ---
    Then, how?
[02:11] ---
    You people know about gyroscopes, right?
[02:15] ---
    Yes, we do.
[02:16] ---
    They're sensors used for
    maintaining balance, correct?
[02:19] ---
    That's right.
[02:20] ---
    Their system may be different than ours,
[02:23] ---
    but I'm sure that sphere has
    some function like that.
[02:28] ---
    I see! So you aim for...
[02:31] ---
    We can't take the thing head on.
[02:34] ---
    This is a chance, after all.
[02:36] ---
    With a tad bit of ingenuity,
    I'm sure we can stop it!
[02:40] ---
    But that sphere is unaffected
    by attacks, EM waves, or scans.
[02:45] ---
    And our weapon is still incomplete!
[02:49] ---
    There's two or three layers to my plan.
[02:52] ---
    Then why haven't we done it yet?
[02:56] ---
    I want to show off!
[02:59] ---
    If we want direct access to the government,
    we need to put on a good show!
[03:06] ---
    Anyway, how are the White
    House's preparations coming?
[03:09] ---
    They are proceeding as scheduled.
[03:12] ---
    Oh, I see...
[03:14] ---
    30 minutes until operation start.
[03:31] ---
    Joey!!
[03:43] ---
    I understand now.
[03:45] ---
    It was that boy which was controlling him!
[03:51] ---
    In other words, without that little boy,
[03:53] ---
    the white one is nothing
    but a worthless puppet!
[04:28] ---
    What?
[04:38] ---
    Joey!
[04:41] ---
    I'm okay!
[04:43] ---
    Still alive after taking that hit? I
    guess you really aren't a normal human.
[04:49] ---
    However!
[04:56] ---
    My calculations... are never wrong!
[05:13] ---
    This is over!
[05:25] ---
    Joey!
[05:34] ---
    Hey, Joey! Wake up!
[05:37] ---
    Joey!
[05:40] ---
    We're through...
[05:46] ---
    I win!
[05:48] ---
    All that's left is to crush the
    leftover weaklings and finish up.
[06:11] ---
    That's...
[06:12] ---
    Heroman is...
[06:14] ---
    ...shining...
[06:22] ---
    But what is it?
[06:26] ---
    What is that shining light?
[06:31] ---
    Heroman's acting strange...
[06:40] ---
    That's nothing...
[07:40] ---
    He's strong... But...
[07:43] ---
    He's not fighting anymore...
[07:47] ---
    It's like he's...
[07:49] ---
    ...out of control!
[08:37] ---
    S-Stop it...
[08:39] ---
    Please, stop!
[08:50] ---
    H-Heroman?
[08:56] ---
    Heroman!
[08:59] ---
    That's enough, Heroman!
[09:10] ---
    Don't!
[09:16] ---
    You mustn't fight like that!
[09:19] ---
    Because... You're...
[09:22] ---
    ...my Heroman!
[09:49] ---
    Heroman...
[10:03] ---
    Looks like you have trouble
    finishing people off!
[10:06] ---
    You damn brat!
[10:17] ---
    Heroman!
[10:18] ---
    Too late!
[10:43] ---
    Heroman...
[10:46] ---
    Blast!
[12:03] ---
    Hey!
[12:07] ---
    You okay, Joey?
[12:13] ---
    You did great, Joey!
[12:31] ---
    To think I'd be outmatched
    on this backwoods planet...
[12:36] ---
    But I won't let it end here!
[12:39] ---
    I'll send you all... to hell!
[12:45] ---
    W-What are you...
[12:48] ---
    We Skrugg will never accept defeat!
[12:53] ---
    I'll blow up this base and you along with it!
[13:07] ---
    In the end I cannot allow
    you to stop the plan!
[13:23] ---
    What should we do?
[13:24] ---
    Get outta here?
[13:25] ---
    No, we still have something we need to do.
[13:29] ---
    We need to do?
[13:31] ---
    Those spheres!
[13:32] ---
    Even if this place explodes,
    they'll keep rolling.
[13:37] ---
    This is our last chance!
[13:39] ---
    We have to stop those spheres
    before this place is destroyed!
[13:44] ---
    So, where should we go?
[13:49] ---
    The controls should be
    where Kogorr came from.
[13:56] ---
    The top floor, probably!
[14:30] ---
    Here?
[14:31] ---
    Yes, I'm sure this is it.
[14:34] ---
    And the controls are...
[14:37] ---
    There!
[14:50] ---
    Now, then...
[14:56] ---
    What's the matter, Professor?
[14:58] ---
    Start the clicky-clackin' already!
[15:00] ---
    Don't you get it, you two?
[15:02] ---
    This work is very delicate, and
    requires precise operation!
[15:06] ---
    Why?
[15:07] ---
    If I screw up and hit the self-destruct
    switch, there's no turning back!
[15:12] ---
    That switch has already
    been pushed, remember?!
[15:17] ---
    Hurry up, Professor!
[15:19] ---
    F-F-Fine!
[15:24] ---
    Heroman... Go!
[15:34] ---
    Quickly!
[15:36] ---
    I-I know!
[15:49] ---
    Mr. President, leave
    everything to me, Minami!
[15:53] ---
    We're counting on you.
[15:55] ---
    3 minutes to operation start.
[15:57] ---
    Now, shall we begin?
[16:11] ---
    Ladies and gentlemen...
[16:18] ---
    It's showtime!
[16:23] ---
    Do you understand it?
[16:24] ---
    There's nothing I like less as a scientist...
[16:27] ---
    Activating some unknown device using
    only guesswork and supposition...
[16:32] ---
    But there are linguistic rules
    common to all morphologies...
[16:36] ---
    And I worked a bit with their technology.
[16:50] ---
    Hurry up, faster!
[16:52] ---
    I know!
[17:03] ---
    Damn it!
[17:04] ---
    Stop! Stop! Stop!
[17:07] ---
    Professor!
[17:09] ---
    30 seconds until sphere is
    within area of effectiveness.
[17:13] ---
    28, 27, 26, 25,
[17:18] ---
    24, 23, 22, 21,
[17:22] ---
    20, 19, 18, 17, 16,
[17:23] ---
    Now begins the dawn of a new era... Mine!
[17:27] ---
    15, 14, 13, 12, 11,
[17:32] ---
    10, 9, 8, 7, 6,
[17:33] ---
    That's...
[17:36] ---
    I don't care anymore, just stop!
[17:38] ---
    5, 4, 3, 2, 1...
[17:40] ---
    Sphere Capture Plan...
[17:45] ---
    Begin!
[17:56] ---
    The sphere has ceased movement.
[17:58] ---
    What?!
[18:14] ---
    Aw, it stopped.
[18:17] ---
    And we didn't do anything.
[18:24] ---
    They stopped...
[18:26] ---
    Okay! Next to stop the self-destruct...
[18:36] ---
    Professor!
[18:38] ---
    Looks like that's all I can do.
[18:40] ---
    We did everything we planned to!
[18:41] ---
    Now we just have to get outta here!
[18:43] ---
    Joey!
[18:45] ---
    Heroman...
[18:47] ---
    Finish!
[19:03] ---
    Joey...
[19:48] ---
    Joey!
[20:59] ---
    Psy, Psy!
[21:05] ---
    Professor! Hey, Professor!
[21:08] ---
    I'm alive...
[21:16] ---
    It's over.
[21:17] ---
    Yeah.
[21:19] ---
    And so, peace returns to Center City.
[21:22] ---
    Thank goodness.
[21:24] ---
    Good going, Joey.
[21:25] ---
    Yeah!
[21:28] ---
    Thank you, Heroman.
[21:46] ---
    It's a good thing we didn't have to depend
    on that weapon we don't really understand.
[21:49] ---
    Ah, all's well that ends well!
[21:52] ---
    It wasn't something to be so worried about.
[21:54] ---
    Why those... Who did this?
[21:56] ---
    Who got in my way?
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    It's over! Now I can concentrate
    on my part-time job again!
[23:57] ---
    Time to work!
[23:58] ---
    The battle is over, and it seems
    like peace has returned to the city.
[24:03] ---
    Joey and the gang should
    have saved the world,
[24:07] ---
    but new tendrils of evil have begun to
    creep up and are steadily closing in.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #10: Approach!
[24:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[01:40] ---
    It's been 3 months since the battle
    with the Skrugg was finished.
[01:45] ---
    Peace has returned to the city, but it's not
    like everything is the way it used to be.
[01:52] ---
    Deep scars remain from the Skrugg, and a
    large number of people lost their homes.
[02:01] ---
    Those spheres stopped moving, and
    have remained where they are.
[02:05] ---
    It doesn't seem like we have the technology
    on this planet to reactivate them.
[02:11] ---
    I heard on the news that the government
[02:14] ---
    has finished surrounding the sphere in front
    of the White House with a research lab.
[02:22] ---
    The utilities and transportation networks
    haven't been fully restored yet, either.
[02:29] ---
    But... Even so...
[02:31] ---
    Okay, just hold it like that.
[02:34] ---
    Okay! No problem!
[02:35] ---
    Here I go!
[02:36] ---
    Ready, set...
[02:39] ---
    Everyone in the city is taking
    a new step toward tomorrow.
[02:44] ---
    And I've got a ton more work
    to do at my part-time job!
[02:49] ---
    Joey! I've got a lot of
    work again for you today!
[02:53] ---
    Right! Thank you!
[03:01] ---
    According to the latest reports,
[03:03] ---
    the reconstruction of the areas destroyed
    by the spheres is proceeding as scheduled.
[03:08] ---
    And what of the investigation into the Skrugg?
[03:12] ---
    I am sorry, Sir, but although we
    are investigating quite diligently,
[03:17] ---
    we still know nothing of the codenamed
    "Ghost" that destroyed the Skrugg.
[03:22] ---
    So, no change on that front.
[03:24] ---
    However, there have been small incidents
    in Center City during its reconstruction.
[03:30] ---
    Incidents?
[03:31] ---
    Well, I would hesitate to
    even call them that....
[03:36] ---
    Overnight, piles of rubble have been cleaned up,
[03:39] ---
    ground has been leveled,
[03:42] ---
    scaffolding has been erected...
[03:45] ---
    It seems like someone is assisting
    with the rebuilding of the city.
[03:49] ---
    The work always seems to
    occur over a single night.
[03:52] ---
    And these are jobs that would take many
    weeks to finish even using heavy equipment.
[03:57] ---
    So you're saying that this "Mr.
    Hero" is hiding out in that city?
[04:05] ---
    We have no guarantee that this
    hero will always be on our side.
[04:12] ---
    Furthermore, if this mysterious hero
    and the Ghost are one in the same,
[04:18] ---
    the United States cannot
    turn a blind eye to them.
[04:22] ---
    Do you have some evidence?
[04:24] ---
    This.
[04:30] ---
    It's a printout from a
    security camera in the city.
[04:34] ---
    That's...
[04:36] ---
    This Ghost may became a threat
    to the United States.
[04:48] ---
    Call Hughes.
[04:50] ---
    Let him handle this.
[05:02] ---
    You there, out of the way!
[05:09] ---
    You pitiful ants!
[05:20] ---
    Sheesh...
[05:21] ---
    It is inadvisable to become
    overly emotional, Dr. Minami.
[05:25] ---
    I know that, damn it!
[05:26] ---
    Why do I have to help out here in Center City?
[05:33] ---
    Clearly because the Skrugg were destroyed
    prior to you stopping the sphere.
[05:37] ---
    I know that, damn it!
[05:39] ---
    Thanks to that, my beautiful work of art is
    being put to work rebuilding this puny city!
[05:47] ---
    Is there some other reason
    for involving the MR-1?
[05:51] ---
    Yes, of course there is!
[05:53] ---
    But I can't stand even watching it!
[05:56] ---
    Then perhaps you should not watch it?
[05:58] ---
    Of course not!
[06:00] ---
    You expect me to leave my work
    of art in other people's hands?
[06:04] ---
    Then you should watch it.
[06:08] ---
    I'm sure it's in this city somewhere...
[06:11] ---
    The one that got in the way
    of my grand ambition...
[06:15] ---
    It's in this city!
[06:22] ---
    What's the matter, Joey?
[06:23] ---
    Not getting enough sleep?
[06:25] ---
    Um, yeah...
[06:26] ---
    Sorry...
[06:37] ---
    Where are you going to go, Will?
[06:41] ---
    I don't know.
[06:43] ---
    But I can't stay here any longer.
[06:47] ---
    I can't live in human society with this body.
[06:51] ---
    I can no longer be with you, Lina.
[06:54] ---
    That's...
[06:55] ---
    Stay back!
[07:01] ---
    Stay strong, Lina.
[07:08] ---
    Brother!
[07:14] ---
    I haven't seen him since.
[07:20] ---
    My mother said he's sure to return.
[07:24] ---
    And my dad seems to be
    trying to forget about him
[07:29] ---
    by absorbing himself in
    the reconstruction work.
[07:46] ---
    Lina!
[07:48] ---
    Joey, good morning.
[07:50] ---
    Good morning.
[07:58] ---
    How've you been?
[08:00] ---
    Yeah... Okay, I guess.
[08:03] ---
    Is that so?
[08:06] ---
    So, Lina...
[08:08] ---
    I know a lot happened and all...
[08:11] ---
    But keep on working hard!
[08:13] ---
    If something's up, tell me anything.
[08:15] ---
    I'll be happy to lend an ear.
[08:19] ---
    Really?
[08:20] ---
    That's something I can handle.
[08:22] ---
    Just talking about things can
    make people feel better, right?
[08:26] ---
    Yeah... Thanks.
[08:37] ---
    Then, um...
[08:42] ---
    Would you...
[08:44] ---
    ...go out on a date...
[08:48] ---
    What?
[08:50] ---
    Would you go out with...
[08:51] ---
    Joey, Lina!
[08:53] ---
    What's your problem? You'd better
    hurry or class will start.
[08:58] ---
    Oh, no!
[08:59] ---
    Gotta run!
[09:13] ---
    Using this distributive law,
[09:16] ---
    you can take these products of polynomials
    and turn them into a single polynomial.
[09:20] ---
    This is called the polynomial expansion.
[09:23] ---
    This is the opposite process from factorization,
[09:26] ---
    When class is over, I'll
    ask him out, no excuses!
[09:28] ---
    which we studied previously, therefore you
    can use that process to check your work.
[09:29] ---
    If I ask him nice and quick before anyone
    interrupts, then it should go fine.
[09:36] ---
    That's all for today.
[09:41] ---
    Joey!
[09:42] ---
    Oh, Lina...
[09:43] ---
    Um, you see...
[09:45] ---
    I...
[09:49] ---
    Joey Jones!
[09:51] ---
    Yes?
[09:52] ---
    Would you come here for a bit?
[09:55] ---
    Okay...
[10:00] ---
    What's with this?
[10:10] ---
    That was amazing...
[10:14] ---
    I tried making it yesterday.
[10:17] ---
    H-Hey!
[10:21] ---
    What the heck is going on here!
[10:28] ---
    Did something happen?
[10:30] ---
    I have a feeling like I heard Lina's voice.
[10:35] ---
    Must be your imagination.
[10:45] ---
    I'm gonna ask him out, this time for sure!
[10:48] ---
    Even if something gets in my way, I don't care.
[10:50] ---
    I've got to get him to promise, then...
[10:53] ---
    But...
[10:55] ---
    Joey!
[10:56] ---
    Hey, Lina.
[10:57] ---
    Um, I want to talk about something.
[10:59] ---
    It'll just take a second. Do you mind?
[11:02] ---
    What? Am I in the way?
[11:04] ---
    Yes. You are.
[11:06] ---
    W-What's with you?
[11:08] ---
    Whatever, just be quiet!
[11:09] ---
    F-Fine, I get it.
[11:11] ---
    Let's go, Joey.
[11:13] ---
    S-Sure...
[11:16] ---
    What time is it?
[11:17] ---
    Um... Three thirty.
[11:21] ---
    Sorry, Lina! I have to
    hurry to my part-time job!
[11:25] ---
    Don't worry. I'll run with you!
[11:28] ---
    B-But...
[11:30] ---
    I'm running with you!
[11:32] ---
    S-Sure...
[11:35] ---
    Then, let's go.
[11:37] ---
    Right.
[11:42] ---
    From Dad?
[11:44] ---
    Hello?
[11:45] ---
    No, I can't.
[11:46] ---
    I'm...
[11:48] ---
    Wait, really?
[11:50] ---
    But...
[11:51] ---
    Sorry, I'm in a hurry.
[11:53] ---
    Wait!
[11:54] ---
    No, I wasn't talking to you.
[12:01] ---
    What in the world is going on?
[12:23] ---
    Joey!
[12:25] ---
    Would you get me another cup of coffee?
[12:27] ---
    Sure!
[12:30] ---
    Could you fill me up as well?
[12:32] ---
    Sure, of course.
[12:37] ---
    Thanks.
[12:37] ---
    No problem.
[12:43] ---
    Not bad. The coffee here is top notch.
[12:46] ---
    Yeah! Best instant coffee you can buy!
[12:49] ---
    What's that?
[12:50] ---
    If you can't taste the difference,
    get outta my store.
[12:52] ---
    Sorry, sorry... Fill 'er up.
[12:57] ---
    Are you also here to help with the reconstruction?
[13:00] ---
    Well, something like that.
[13:02] ---
    The city needs a lot of workers to help
    with the rebuilding and construction.
[13:08] ---
    And thanks to that, I've got a lot more work.
[13:10] ---
    I see. Good for you.
[13:12] ---
    Yes.
[13:13] ---
    By the way, uh...
[13:14] ---
    Joey.
[13:15] ---
    Okay then, Joey.
[13:17] ---
    Have you heard the rumors?
[13:20] ---
    What rumors?
[13:21] ---
    That there's some hero that shows up
[13:24] ---
    and helps with the reconstruction in
    the middle of night, uncalled for.
[13:29] ---
    You know about it?
[13:30] ---
    N-No! I...
[13:32] ---
    Well, maybe it's just some urban legend.
[13:37] ---
    You're investigating those rumors?
[13:41] ---
    No. Just wondering what you
    thought of someone that kind.
[13:46] ---
    I think it's the work of God.
[13:48] ---
    It's been a giant help.
[13:50] ---
    What are you talking about? I
    won't have any work left to do!
[13:57] ---
    I guess I should cut back
    on anything too flashy...
[14:07] ---
    Ready?
[14:09] ---
    Yeah!
[14:13] ---
    Then ready... Start!
[14:16] ---
    Heroman... Go!
[14:39] ---
    Heroman...
[14:42] ---
    Attack!
[14:47] ---
    Okay!
[14:48] ---
    That's enough!
[14:50] ---
    Perfect.
[14:56] ---
    Professor, what's this?
[15:01] ---
    Heroman's power comes from electricity.
[15:04] ---
    Electricity is the origin of magnetism, and
    has the power to attract and repel things.
[15:12] ---
    I think you two have improved
    considerably these past three months.
[15:16] ---
    Plus your teamwork has
    made remarkable progress.
[15:19] ---
    You have some new attacks, too.
[15:21] ---
    Um, since the Skrugg are
    gone, why am I doing this?
[15:26] ---
    What are you saying? The Skrugg aren't
    the only threat to the world, you know.
[15:31] ---
    It's obvious that you must make all
    possible preparations for the next time.
[15:37] ---
    Studying construction is
    more useful to the city...
[15:41] ---
    Like how to pour concrete, or how to
    erect a steel frame foundation...
[15:54] ---
    Professor?
[15:55] ---
    Joey. You're the only one who can use Heroman.
[15:59] ---
    If you don't do it, who will?
[16:11] ---
    I don't want to see Heroman
    like that ever again...
[16:18] ---
    Yeah, that's right.
[16:20] ---
    Yup, and that's that.
[16:25] ---
    Um, Professor Denton...
[16:27] ---
    What is it?
[16:28] ---
    I heard that there are rumors about
    Heroman at my part-time job earlier.
[16:32] ---
    Oh, about the volunteer work
    you're doing at night?
[16:35] ---
    Yeah, well...
[16:37] ---
    Well, the rumors I've heard are that there are
    government types going around investigating.
[16:44] ---
    Well, don't worry.
[16:45] ---
    No one's ever going to think that your
    toy is some hero of justice or anything.
[16:52] ---
    That being said, I recommend that you
    take all precaution in your actions.
[16:57] ---
    Make up your mind.
[17:45] ---
    Sheesh...
[17:51] ---
    Who's that?
[17:57] ---
    Um, hello?
[17:58] ---
    Joey! It's Joey, right?
[17:59] ---
    Y-Yeah!
[18:01] ---
    Sorry about today. My job...
[18:03] ---
    Anyway, where are you right now?
[18:05] ---
    I have something I-
[18:09] ---
    Lina? Lina?
[18:11] ---
    What's the matter?
[18:14] ---
    Lina...
[18:19] ---
    Sheesh...
[18:36] ---
    That was...
[18:37] ---
    Lina!
[18:41] ---
    Quiet down, you!
[18:43] ---
    Sorry about this, little princess.
[18:44] ---
    You stay quiet and we won't
    have to get our hands dirty.
[18:47] ---
    For a little while, anyway...
[18:51] ---
    If you want to hate someone, hate your dad!
[18:53] ---
    We realized he must have been crazy rich after
    he started doin' all that flashy charity work.
[18:58] ---
    It's obvious his daughter
    would be targeted, right?
[19:03] ---
    And that's that.
[19:05] ---
    As soon as your dad coughs up
    the cash we'll go easy on you.
[19:08] ---
    Keep quiet until then.
[19:22] ---
    Who the hell are you?
[19:26] ---
    Joey!
[19:28] ---
    We got a strange one here...
[19:30] ---
    Move outta the way!
[19:33] ---
    Ignoring me?
[19:35] ---
    Fine by me!
[19:41] ---
    What the heck?
[19:42] ---
    Um, Boss...
[19:56] ---
    I-It's a monster!
[19:58] ---
    S-Stay back!
[20:05] ---
    Heroman...
[20:08] ---
    Attack!
[20:18] ---
    Lina... Lina!
[20:25] ---
    It's okay now.
[20:28] ---
    Joey...
[20:30] ---
    Joey!
[20:32] ---
    Lina!
[20:33] ---
    I was scared...
[20:37] ---
    But, I knew you would come for me...
[20:51] ---
    Thanks. Here is fine.
[20:53] ---
    Then, I'll be going.
[20:55] ---
    Right.
[20:57] ---
    Joey!
[21:00] ---
    Thanks for today.
[21:04] ---
    Good night, Lina.
[21:11] ---
    I forgot to ask him out on a date!
[21:22] ---
    Why can't I say it?
[21:24] ---
    It's such a simple thing...
[21:28] ---
    Would you like to go out somewhere
    together on Sunday, Joey?
[21:35] ---
    U-Um... You forgot...
[21:40] ---
    And that's how we finally
    promised to go out on a date!
[21:48] ---
    What did we do?
[21:50] ---
    We're the victims!
[21:51] ---
    We were attacked by a monster!
[21:53] ---
    Let me go!
[21:54] ---
    We didn't do anything wrong!
[21:56] ---
    We got you on illegal possession
    of firearms, at least!
[21:58] ---
    Those aren't ours!
[21:59] ---
    Give us a break!
[22:04] ---
    This is Special Agent Hughes.
[22:08] ---
    Reporting to the President.
[22:12] ---
    The Ghost... is real.
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    What is everyone out there most afraid of?
[23:55] ---
    For me... For me...
[23:58] ---
    Hughes's investigation is
    getting closer to the truth,
[24:01] ---
    but Joey has bigger problems than that.
[24:05] ---
    With the entrance of, in Joey's view, the
    greatest evil of all, Joey shudders and weeps in fear!
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #11: Menace.
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[01:43] ---
    Good morning!
[01:45] ---
    This is the front desk,
    with your wake-up call!
[01:48] ---
    Uh, right.
[01:50] ---
    Thanks, I'm awake.
[01:52] ---
    Have a nice day, Mister!
[02:09] ---
    Now, then...
[02:27] ---
    Time for work.
[02:38] ---
    I'm finally here...
[02:42] ---
    Center City.
[02:57] ---
    Good morning.
[02:59] ---
    Morning.
[02:59] ---
    How's the welcome party coming?
[03:01] ---
    We've already proceeded to phase two.
[03:04] ---
    There have been no oversights.
[03:06] ---
    We're up against the Ghost here.
[03:07] ---
    Make sure not to get yourself haunted.
[03:10] ---
    Right, Sir.
[03:11] ---
    Before the road repair erases the footprints,
    I want to go check it out myself once again.
[03:16] ---
    We'll proceed with the
    steamroller plan right away.
[03:19] ---
    Now, don't be hasty.
[03:21] ---
    I have two or three things I'm curious about.
[03:23] ---
    Hold up the invitation until I've
    determined them one way or the other.
[03:29] ---
    Got it?
[03:30] ---
    Understood, Agent Hughes.
[03:39] ---
    I was asked out on a date!
[03:41] ---
    What do you think, Heroman?
[03:43] ---
    I'm kinda embarrassed.
[03:47] ---
    But, wait! The guy needs to
    take the lead on a date, right?
[03:51] ---
    I wonder where Lina would enjoy going to?
[03:55] ---
    What do you think, Heroman?
[03:59] ---
    The barricade is set to be
    lifted at eight o'clock.
[04:02] ---
    #3 filming is complete.
[04:04] ---
    Proceeding to precision measurements.
[04:05] ---
    Nothing out of the ordinary detected
    in a 30 meter square perimeter.
[04:14] ---
    This is where the trail cuts off.
[04:28] ---
    Onesy, twosy, threesy...
[04:30] ---
    I knew it... I'd better
    put in some work or else.
[04:37] ---
    Yes! Coming, coming!
[04:41] ---
    Who is...
[04:50] ---
    S-Sis?!
[04:58] ---
    Hey, you alien!
[04:59] ---
    Show your true form!
[05:01] ---
    Sis, it's me! Joey!
[05:03] ---
    What are you talkin' about?
[05:05] ---
    My little brother is a tiny munchkin!
[05:08] ---
    Well, I grew a bit in four years!
[05:11] ---
    It's Holly!
[05:13] ---
    Granny, I'm home.
[05:16] ---
    Don't worry. I caught the alien.
[05:19] ---
    I'm Joey!
[05:24] ---
    I thought you were touring with
    your band on the east coast?
[05:29] ---
    I heard that Center City was attacked by
    aliens so I came runnin' all the way here.
[05:37] ---
    It's been three months since then!
[05:39] ---
    I didn't have the money to
    get here so quick, sheesh.
[05:43] ---
    Here, it's a souvenir.
[05:47] ---
    You're old enough, right?
[05:49] ---
    I-I'm not...
[05:50] ---
    I wish you'd have at least called...
[05:53] ---
    Oh yeah, that would have been a good idea.
[05:57] ---
    She hasn't changed.
[05:58] ---
    Doing things at her own pace, as always.
[06:00] ---
    You say something?
[06:02] ---
    N-No, nothing.
[06:04] ---
    I'll make some coffee.
[06:06] ---
    Five lumps of sugar, please!
[06:08] ---
    I came running here, but what a letdown.
[06:11] ---
    There ain't any aliens around anymore.
[06:15] ---
    It happened three months ago!
[06:17] ---
    You're always like this, Sis...
[06:19] ---
    Egocentric and selfish... You never
    care at all about the people around you.
[06:23] ---
    Well, I came all this way so
    I ain't leavin' right away.
[06:27] ---
    I'll probably crash here two or three days.
[06:37] ---
    Damn, it's hot!
[06:39] ---
    This is why I hate the west coast!
[06:41] ---
    Dr. Minami. We have a request for a meeting.
[06:47] ---
    From who?
[06:48] ---
    They say they're someone with the government,
[06:50] ---
    but it seems they wish to tell
    you the details only in person.
[06:54] ---
    Accept it.
[06:55] ---
    Yes, sir.
[06:56] ---
    Finally they're here.
[06:58] ---
    It's been three months since we've
    been helping the reconstruction.
[07:00] ---
    What took them so long?
[07:03] ---
    These are gross!
[07:04] ---
    Give me another one!
[07:09] ---
    That's my favorite, limited time
    only, pumpkin flavored cereal!
[07:13] ---
    What do you care, I ain't eating that much!
[07:15] ---
    Yes, you are!
[07:16] ---
    Stop being such a nag. That ain't cool, Bro.
[07:25] ---
    I just got in the shower!
[07:27] ---
    I wanna clean off after the trip!
[07:29] ---
    You go after me. I'm first.
[07:32] ---
    How does that work exactly?
[07:35] ---
    Sis, why are you stripping?
[07:37] ---
    Let's just shower together, then.
[07:39] ---
    I'm leaving!
[07:40] ---
    I'm leaving right now,
    so keep your clothes on!
[07:42] ---
    What's the big deal? We used to
    do this all the time, remember?
[07:46] ---
    I'm in middle school now!
[07:52] ---
    When did you...
[07:53] ---
    T-That's...
[07:55] ---
    Sis!
[08:00] ---
    Knock before you enter, will ya?
[08:02] ---
    But yeah, I see you still
    treasure this thing.
[08:06] ---
    Stop it.
[08:08] ---
    Dad's helmet is mine.
[08:11] ---
    Don't go wearing it around!
[08:12] ---
    Hmph! You and your father complex.
[08:14] ---
    So, what is it now?
[08:16] ---
    Joey, you sleep in the living room.
[08:20] ---
    You plan on making a lady sleep on the sofa?
[08:23] ---
    This room is now mine.
[08:27] ---
    Y-You're joking, right?
[08:29] ---
    You're always, always taking my...
[08:31] ---
    What's this?
[08:36] ---
    No! Anything but that, please!
[08:39] ---
    Don't worry, I won't break it.
[08:42] ---
    Sis, do you remember how much of
    my stuff you've broken before?
[08:47] ---
    I didn't break 'em. They just broke.
[08:50] ---
    Man... Caring so much about
    a stupid toy at your age.
[08:53] ---
    You're pathetic.
[08:55] ---
    So, Joey, how old are you?
[08:58] ---
    Whatever!
[09:00] ---
    That thing looks pretty expensive.
[09:02] ---
    Think we could get some cash by selling it?
[09:06] ---
    Don't even joke about that!
[09:08] ---
    Heroman isn't a toy, or something to be sold.
[09:11] ---
    He's my friend!
[09:19] ---
    Your friend?
[09:20] ---
    Oh, I get it, he's your friend!
[09:22] ---
    You're a riot!
[09:24] ---
    Hey, Joey, wait!
[09:27] ---
    Where are you going?
[09:28] ---
    To Psy's place.
[09:35] ---
    Pardon me.
[09:36] ---
    This is the first time we've met.
[09:38] ---
    I am Agent Hughes from the National
    Intelligence Agency, abbreviated NIA.
[09:44] ---
    Nice to meet you, Dr. Minami.
[09:47] ---
    Nice to meet you as well.
[09:50] ---
    You're from the NIA?
[09:52] ---
    So what does the agency under direct
    control of the President want with me?
[09:58] ---
    If you want the MR-1 to be formally
    adopted into the military, then...
[10:02] ---
    I'm afraid it's something else.
[10:05] ---
    We'd like your advice on a certain
    case we're investigating.
[10:09] ---
    Or more precisely, to hear your opinion.
[10:13] ---
    My opinion?
[10:14] ---
    Yes. And I would like for you to
    cooperate with us on this matter.
[10:20] ---
    Cooperate?
[10:21] ---
    Why me?
[10:23] ---
    We are an agency that answers
    directly to the President.
[10:27] ---
    We have a very deep connection
    with your clients.
[10:32] ---
    If you think about your future...
[10:34] ---
    So you're saying this is for my own good?
[10:37] ---
    By the way, I will write
    all the reports myself.
[10:42] ---
    Oh, I see then.
[10:45] ---
    Then, if you'll allow me to ask a question.
[10:49] ---
    Is that okay?
[10:50] ---
    Sure. Ask whatever you'd like.
[10:53] ---
    At the request of the government,
[10:55] ---
    or rather you used your great
    power as one close to the military
[10:59] ---
    to join in and aid the government's
    reconstruction in a grand way.
[11:04] ---
    This was designed as a demonstration
    of your robot, correct?
[11:09] ---
    But if that was the point, there are more
    prominent places, like near the White House.
[11:15] ---
    What are you trying to say?
[11:17] ---
    Allow me to be frank.
[11:20] ---
    What are you doing here in Center City?
[11:38] ---
    What?!
[11:42] ---
    That nightmare has returned?
[11:45] ---
    Yeah...
[11:46] ---
    Just great...
[11:48] ---
    Guess I'd better steer clear
    of your house for a while.
[11:51] ---
    She's only been here half a
    day and I'm already worn out.
[11:54] ---
    It's a disaster, huh?
[11:56] ---
    And it's only just begun.
[11:59] ---
    Holly, huh?
[12:02] ---
    It's been four years since
    she suddenly left town.
[12:08] ---
    It's all coming back to me...
[12:10] ---
    That dark period in our youth...
[12:19] ---
    Always pickin' a fight, rude, strong as
    heck, buttin' in at the wrong time...
[12:26] ---
    Who're you callin' beautiful,
    elegant, and graceful?
[12:34] ---
    H-Holly!
[12:35] ---
    Long time no see...
[12:37] ---
    What's with the leg?
[12:39] ---
    N-Nothing much...
[12:41] ---
    I see.
[12:42] ---
    Anyway, I have a favor to ask you two.
[12:47] ---
    Will you do it for me?
[12:49] ---
    Do what?
[12:54] ---
    Well then, I will contact
    you again in a few days.
[12:58] ---
    I'll be waiting.
[13:02] ---
    Cunning bastard.
[13:07] ---
    How could I not be surprised!
[13:10] ---
    In just one night the entire
    pile of wreckage was cleaned up.
[13:15] ---
    Any clues?
[13:16] ---
    If there were I'd go and
    thank to guy myself.
[13:19] ---
    Thank them?
[13:21] ---
    Well sure.
[13:23] ---
    Thanks to them our schedule and
    budget is looking much better.
[13:26] ---
    What's there to complain about?
[13:28] ---
    Here, too?
[13:30] ---
    Well, I'd like to get back to work, so...
[13:34] ---
    One final question.
[13:36] ---
    What kind of person do you
    think this individual is?
[13:42] ---
    An ally of justice!
[13:44] ---
    Everyone around here thinks so.
[13:49] ---
    Ally of justice...
[13:54] ---
    Sheesh... So you just wanted
    us to show you around town?
[13:59] ---
    You leave for a bit and
    everything changes in this city.
[14:03] ---
    So then, where do you
    want us to show you, Sis?
[14:07] ---
    A place with a lot of people, if you can.
[14:09] ---
    And a place where it won't
    matter if I stick out a little.
[14:13] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?
[14:15] ---
    Shut it!
[14:16] ---
    Stop complainin' and find a place!
[14:18] ---
    I'm gonna fall!
[14:22] ---
    Any results?
[14:23] ---
    I ended up questioning people.
[14:25] ---
    But I didn't get any proof.
[14:27] ---
    Then, we should go one by one...
[14:29] ---
    Now, wait.
[14:30] ---
    There's one thing that's peaked my interest.
[14:33] ---
    It's still only in the realm of conjecture,
[14:35] ---
    but all the incidents of the Ghost
    have the same characteristic.
[14:39] ---
    Did you think of something, Agent Hughes?
[14:42] ---
    Yeah. Just a bit of an
    opening act for the party.
[14:50] ---
    How long are we going to go on like this?
[14:52] ---
    Ask that to my sister...
[14:55] ---
    I've decided on here.
[14:57] ---
    I'll set off a big firework right here!
[15:02] ---
    Huh? An explosion?
[15:08] ---
    Excuse me, what happened?
[15:11] ---
    Some accident.
[15:12] ---
    Seems there are some people left behind...
[15:14] ---
    People?
[15:16] ---
    That giant sphere destroyed this building.
[15:19] ---
    The foundation isn't doing so well, so
    the rescue squads can't get to them.
[15:23] ---
    Oh, no!
[15:25] ---
    What're you going to do, Joey?
[15:27] ---
    You could probably use Heroman
    to save them, but today...
[15:30] ---
    What are you two standin' around for?
[15:34] ---
    It's nothing!
[15:38] ---
    Psy, I've been entrusted with a
    great duty to protect Center City.
[15:42] ---
    W-What?
[15:45] ---
    Hey, wait!
[15:46] ---
    I'll be back soon, so handle things here!
[15:50] ---
    Hey, Joey! Where are you going?
[15:52] ---
    Joey!
[15:55] ---
    Psy.
[15:57] ---
    Hold my stuff.
[16:00] ---
    Holly!
[16:08] ---
    The accident happened above here.
[16:23] ---
    Heroman...
[16:26] ---
    Engage!
[16:31] ---
    Where are the people that were left behind?
[16:36] ---
    I knew you'd appear.
[16:39] ---
    I've been searching for you a long time.
[16:42] ---
    We finally meet, Mr. Ghost.
[16:47] ---
    He's been searching for Heroman?
[16:49] ---
    I apologize for tricking
    you into coming here.
[16:52] ---
    But I didn't think I could
    meet you any other way.
[16:56] ---
    Don't worry, there are no people nearby.
[17:00] ---
    That means this is a trap!
[17:02] ---
    So the people being left behind was a lie?
[17:06] ---
    I have a lot of things I want to ask you.
[17:09] ---
    About your relationship with the Skrugg,
[17:11] ---
    and the large amount of volunteer
    work you've been doing lately.
[17:15] ---
    But first... May I ask you what you are?
[17:24] ---
    Silence, eh?
[17:26] ---
    Or perhaps you cannot speak?
[17:29] ---
    This is bad. I have to escape.
[17:30] ---
    Oh, pardon me. Let me introduce myself first.
[17:35] ---
    I am from the NIA, an agency that
    answers directly to the President...
[17:39] ---
    Heroman!
[17:43] ---
    Hey now, we're not done talking yet!
[17:50] ---
    Crap, crap, crap!
[17:52] ---
    I've got to do something!
[17:57] ---
    Man, I was finally going to show my stuff,
[18:00] ---
    and the main guest goes
    wandering off somewhere!
[18:08] ---
    Oh, no!
[18:13] ---
    That's it!
[18:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
[18:26] ---
    Taking a shortcut through the floor?
[18:40] ---
    Heroman, let's go.
[18:42] ---
    Wait!
[18:49] ---
    At least listen to my whole introduction.
[18:53] ---
    I am...
[19:10] ---
    What's all the smoke?
[19:33] ---
    Cool...
[19:45] ---
    Hey!
[19:49] ---
    Sorry, Sis!
[19:54] ---
    Sheesh.
[19:55] ---
    Don't go leaving your cute
    sister and wandering off!
[19:58] ---
    I-I'm sorry.
[20:01] ---
    Whatever.
[20:05] ---
    Let's hurry and get back so I can start!
[20:08] ---
    Start?
[20:10] ---
    What?
[20:26] ---
    Does the clear blue sky know?
[20:37] ---
    Does even the kind wind know?
[20:47] ---
    Right or left, going either
    way it's the same anyway.
[20:53] ---
    I don't got no map...
[20:59] ---
    But the sky'll point out, like sproutin'.
[21:05] ---
    If I stretch out my hand, I
    should be able to find it.
[21:11] ---
    I want to be able to bloom,
    like dandelion fluff.
[21:16] ---
    If I wander, I'll be able
    to find it, I'm sure...
[21:23] ---
    Gently...
[21:27] ---
    At the base of the rainbow.
[21:38] ---
    Holly's gotten really good!
[21:51] ---
    Amazing, Sis! You're sure to be
    a big star with a song like that!
[21:55] ---
    I'll work hard to save up money and
    see you perform on stage sometime!
[21:59] ---
    Where are you heading to
    next? The east coast again?
[22:02] ---
    No, I think I'll stay here for a while.
[22:07] ---
    There's something interesting in this town.
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    Why? Why won't everyone leave us alone?
[23:57] ---
    Why?
[23:59] ---
    Lina wants to get closer to Joey,
[24:01] ---
    so she successfully asked Joey out on a date.
[24:05] ---
    However a new threat appears
    and gets in the way.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #12: Stalkers.
[24:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[01:31] ---
    Are you also here to help
    with the reconstruction?
[01:34] ---
    Well, something like that.
[01:37] ---
    The city needs a lot of workers to help
    with the rebuilding and construction.
[01:42] ---
    Would you like to go out somewhere
    together on Sunday, Joey?
[01:46] ---
    Yeah!
[01:49] ---
    I was asked out on a date!
[01:52] ---
    What do you think, Heroman?
[01:54] ---
    I wonder where Lina would enjoy going to?
[02:01] ---
    Now, time for work.
[02:51] ---
    Joey...
[02:53] ---
    Hey, Joey!
[02:56] ---
    What's the matter, Joey?
[02:58] ---
    S-Sorry...
[03:03] ---
    Worried about something?
[03:06] ---
    N-No, I'm not...
[03:08] ---
    I see.
[03:13] ---
    Um, Mister...
[03:15] ---
    Suppose you were...
[03:16] ---
    Come on Joey, stop calling
    me "Mister" already...
[03:21] ---
    My name is Axel Hughes.
[03:24] ---
    Pleased to meet you.
[03:25] ---
    Sure!
[03:29] ---
    So, what was it you wanted to ask me about?
[03:34] ---
    You see, tomorrow...
[03:37] ---
    A date?
[03:39] ---
    You and me going on a date?
[03:41] ---
    No, duh...
[03:43] ---
    I'm talking about Joey.
[03:45] ---
    You're going on a date with Joey?
[03:46] ---
    Joey and Lina!
[03:48] ---
    Oh, those two.
[03:55] ---
    Are you serious about that?!
[03:57] ---
    I've told you like, how many times already?
[04:28] ---
    Lina!
[04:30] ---
    Sorry!
[04:32] ---
    Were you waiting?
[04:33] ---
    No! I just got here myself!
[04:36] ---
    What is she talking about? She's
    been waiting for 30 minutes!
[04:40] ---
    Um, Psy... Don't you think this
    is an invasion of their privacy?
[04:45] ---
    Nothing of the sort.
[04:47] ---
    This is friendship!
[04:49] ---
    I'm looking out for him, and
    there's nothing wrong with that.
[04:52] ---
    It looks like we're totally stalkers!
[04:55] ---
    Don't yell in my ear like that!
[04:57] ---
    This is the first date Joey's
    ever had in his life.
[05:00] ---
    If we can't help support him at
    a time like this, when can we?
[05:04] ---
    The first?
[05:06] ---
    Joey there'll screw up the second
    we leave him alone, I know it!
[05:11] ---
    I don't want to spend my precious
    weekend doing this sort of thing either!
[05:18] ---
    There goes a day's worth of pay from my job.
[05:20] ---
    You look like you're
    enjoying yourself plenty.
[05:23] ---
    You're no fun.
[05:25] ---
    Looks like they're on the move.
[05:28] ---
    Where do they plan to go, I wonder?
[05:31] ---
    I'm heading off!
[05:33] ---
    Do your best not to be discovered!
[05:40] ---
    Crap!
[05:41] ---
    Something the matter?
[05:43] ---
    Hey!
[05:44] ---
    Hold it!
[05:48] ---
    Oh, Psy.
[05:49] ---
    What are you doing here?
[05:51] ---
    That's what I should be asking!
[05:54] ---
    Why are you here, Holly?
[05:57] ---
    'Cause...
[06:00] ---
    Joey's been acting strange
    ever since yesterday.
[06:04] ---
    He was fussing with his hair in
    front of the mirror this morning.
[06:07] ---
    Brushed his teeth super carefully...
[06:11] ---
    Then snuck out of the house
    trying not to be seen.
[06:18] ---
    So I thought: "This has got to be a date!"
[06:21] ---
    I, as his big sister, came to heckle him!
[06:23] ---
    I'm begging you, don't!
[06:25] ---
    Why?
[06:27] ---
    If you join in it won't be a date anymore!
[06:31] ---
    Fine, fine. Then I'll call
    it somethin' different.
[06:34] ---
    I, as his big sister...
[06:37] ---
    ...will blow his date to smithereens!
[06:38] ---
    That's even worse!
[06:40] ---
    You got a problem with that?
[06:41] ---
    Pardon the interruption, you two.
[06:45] ---
    Who are you?
[06:45] ---
    Let's save the fighting for later.
[06:48] ---
    We're going to lose track of
    Joey and Lina at this rate.
[06:51] ---
    They're heading to the next place!
[06:53] ---
    That direction is probably...
[07:09] ---
    It's been so long since
    I've been to the ocean!
[07:12] ---
    Hey, Joey!
[07:16] ---
    Let's swim!
[07:17] ---
    Yahoo!
[07:31] ---
    I can't believe I'm able to spend
    a day together with Lina like this!
[07:36] ---
    What's the matter, Joey?
[07:38] ---
    Hurry up! Hurry up!
[07:41] ---
    S-Sure, I'm coming!
[07:45] ---
    So, who's the broad?
[07:48] ---
    Lina. She's a cheerleader
    in the same grade as Joey.
[07:51] ---
    A stuck-up rich girl?
[07:54] ---
    That don't match no matter
    how you look at it.
[07:57] ---
    And that's why we're helping him, got it?
[08:01] ---
    Fine. And who're you, old dude?
[08:03] ---
    Old dude?
[08:04] ---
    That's Prof. Denton.
[08:07] ---
    He's the science teacher at our school.
[08:09] ---
    A lot of stuff happened,
    and we're all pals now.
[08:13] ---
    Man, have you guys lost it.
[08:15] ---
    You're friends with a teacher?
[08:16] ---
    And who is this girl who doesn't mince words?
[08:20] ---
    She's Holly, Joey's sister.
    She was born rude.
[08:24] ---
    Yup, that's basically it. Nice to meetcha.
[08:28] ---
    And you, as well.
[08:37] ---
    Hey! Stop it Joey!
[08:41] ---
    The more you say you don't like
    it, the more you want it, right?
[08:44] ---
    Oh, now you've gone too far!
[08:47] ---
    Lina's counterattack!
[08:49] ---
    Don't count me out yet...
[08:51] ---
    Are you two having fun?
[08:54] ---
    It's boring!
[08:56] ---
    Everything's actually going
    pretty smoothly for those two.
[08:59] ---
    So I guess we aren't needed?
[09:01] ---
    That's a good thing, right?
[09:04] ---
    Professor Denton?
[09:07] ---
    Ms. Collins!
[09:09] ---
    What in the world are you doing?
[09:11] ---
    We're stalking.
[09:20] ---
    Joey and Lina?
[09:22] ---
    So isn't this... an invasion of privacy?
[09:26] ---
    What's wrong with a big sister
    worrying about her little brother?
[09:29] ---
    What's wrong with his
    friend worrying about him?
[09:32] ---
    For me, although I am a teacher, I
    don't think I'm doing anything...
[09:35] ---
    Even so, you shouldn't be doing this!
[09:40] ---
    They're on the move?
[09:43] ---
    Where? Where? I can't see
    Joey and Lina anywhere!
[09:53] ---
    P-Pardon me...
[09:59] ---
    Should we really be doing this?
[10:03] ---
    That's... They're planning on getting lunch?
[10:10] ---
    I can't... I can't!
[10:13] ---
    They're really heading to that restaurant.
[10:18] ---
    This is bad! This is real bad!
[10:41] ---
    And what's so bad about this?
[10:44] ---
    Joey has never been to such
    a high-class restaurant!
[10:47] ---
    On the other hand, Lina's filthy rich!
[10:50] ---
    Joey's going to be red-faced embarrassed
    when he's not able to order anything!
[10:55] ---
    So, let 'im be.
[10:57] ---
    They're no match for each other anyway.
[10:59] ---
    I can't! I can't!
[11:01] ---
    Don't worry.
[11:03] ---
    I thought something like this would
    happen, so I gave him some advice.
[11:06] ---
    What?
[11:07] ---
    Don't enter any expensive
    looking restaurants.
[11:12] ---
    They just entered!
[11:14] ---
    Well, that's odd.
[11:16] ---
    We've got to do something!
[11:18] ---
    At this rate, Joey will...
[11:19] ---
    I can't!
[11:27] ---
    This restaurant is quite good.
[11:32] ---
    What'll you have, Joey?
[11:36] ---
    Oh, what a coincidence, you two!
[11:38] ---
    I was out for a jog, and I
    just happened to run into you!
[11:43] ---
    Ms. Collins!
[11:44] ---
    A-At this restaurant...
[11:47] ---
    I recommend the caviar
    salad and clam chowder,
[11:49] ---
    the lobster for the main course,
    and the panna cotta for dessert!
[12:06] ---
    Raw oysters are good, right?
[12:07] ---
    Yeah!
[12:09] ---
    I'm really glad you ordered
    all that stuff for me, Lina.
[12:12] ---
    Next time we'll try what
    Ms. Collins recommended.
[12:17] ---
    I knew it, they're here.
[12:20] ---
    Sounds good, right?
[12:22] ---
    O-Of course!
[13:09] ---
    Lina.
[13:10] ---
    Y-Yes?
[13:12] ---
    Let's run!
[13:15] ---
    He noticed us?
[13:16] ---
    You won't get away!
[13:17] ---
    J-Joey, what's the matter?
[13:19] ---
    This way!
[13:20] ---
    Ladies second!
[13:23] ---
    I can't! I can't!
[13:25] ---
    Then don't come with us!
[13:27] ---
    I can't! I can't do that!
[13:33] ---
    Ladies first!
[13:45] ---
    Miss Jones!
[13:48] ---
    Where's Joey?
[13:52] ---
    Where's Joey?
[13:53] ---
    I lost 'im.
[13:55] ---
    The little sucker's always
    been fast at runnin' away.
[14:04] ---
    We should be fine outside.
[14:05] ---
    Fine from what?
[14:08] ---
    Why'd you suddenly start running?
[14:12] ---
    S-Sorry.
[14:13] ---
    How should I put this...
[14:16] ---
    I'm really sorry!
[14:17] ---
    In exchange...
[14:17] ---
    We have breaking news to report.
[14:21] ---
    It looks like a robot used in the
    reconstruction has gone out of control.
[14:27] ---
    This is Keisha, reporting.
[14:29] ---
    Generas Industries' robot, MR-1, is moving
    out from the center of Center city...
[14:35] ---
    Get the shot!
[14:39] ---
    According to reports...
[14:40] ---
    Oh no, it's heading this way!
[14:44] ---
    I guess that's it for our
    date then. Too bad...
[14:48] ---
    You're going, right?
[14:52] ---
    Wait, I mean...
[14:53] ---
    Go!
[14:54] ---
    You're a hero, Joey!
[14:58] ---
    Right.
[14:59] ---
    It's okay! Don't worry about me.
[15:02] ---
    I already had plenty of fun today.
[15:04] ---
    When I get back, let's
    go to the amusement park!
[15:06] ---
    Huh? The amusement park?
[15:08] ---
    I'll be back, for sure.
    So, will you wait for me?
[15:15] ---
    Got it. Can we ride the
    ferris wheel together later?
[15:19] ---
    Sure.
[15:20] ---
    Go get 'em.
[15:23] ---
    I'm off.
[15:24] ---
    Be careful.
[15:25] ---
    I will!
[15:35] ---
    Are you sure about this?
[15:36] ---
    Pretending like it's gone out of control?
[15:39] ---
    Our company's reputation is sunk.
[15:41] ---
    Reputation? Have you
    people forgotten already?
[15:44] ---
    The plan for the MR-1 going
    out of control came from
[15:47] ---
    the agency above the military
    directly connected to the President,
[15:52] ---
    the NIA!
[15:55] ---
    Oh, so you actually
    accepted that nutty offer?
[15:59] ---
    They wanted us to lure out the Ghost and
    to bust it up with the MR-1, right?
[16:03] ---
    Exactly!
[16:05] ---
    The time for our revenge is near!
[16:09] ---
    We can prove that we have the ultimate weapon
[16:13] ---
    to all of North America if we
    are able to defeat the Ghost.
[16:16] ---
    If we get it formally
    adopted by the military,
[16:18] ---
    it's only a matter of time until
    it's introduced to the entire world.
[16:21] ---
    What are you guys doing standing around?
[16:24] ---
    Keep your eyes peeled!
[16:26] ---
    Yes, sir!
[16:30] ---
    Is that it?
[16:36] ---
    I have to hurry before
    it crashes into the city.
[16:43] ---
    That guy might appear again.
[16:49] ---
    Anyway, I have to stop that robot now!
[16:58] ---
    Heroman... Engage!
[17:20] ---
    There you are, Ghost!
[17:24] ---
    I've wanted to meet you, you bastard!
[17:27] ---
    Now will be a moment that
    goes down in history!
[17:34] ---
    Make sure to take all the data you can.
[17:36] ---
    Don't miss even a second!
[17:38] ---
    I know, I know!
[17:47] ---
    Heroman!
[17:48] ---
    Think you can escape?
[17:54] ---
    This is strange.
[17:56] ---
    The news said that it went out of control,
[17:58] ---
    but that robot seems like it's
    being controlled by someone.
[18:01] ---
    I knew it. This is a trap!
[18:05] ---
    Is that all you got?
[18:07] ---
    Is that all you got, eh?
[18:20] ---
    What's that white thing?
[18:26] ---
    This is a scoop!
[18:29] ---
    That helicopter is...
[18:31] ---
    Did they see Heroman, I wonder?
[18:34] ---
    I've got to finish this up quick.
[18:59] ---
    The jaw?
[19:00] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
[19:05] ---
    He's tearing open the jaw!
[19:15] ---
    It's been overturned!
[19:17] ---
    I'm not done yet!
[19:21] ---
    You'll be in big trouble
    if you underestimate...
[19:24] ---
    ...this pinnacle of my technology!
[19:27] ---
    Doctor!
[19:31] ---
    Heroman... Finish!
[20:00] ---
    Where'd that white thing go?
[20:26] ---
    Thanks for waiting!
[20:28] ---
    Is the city safe?
[20:30] ---
    Yeah! We stopped it, somehow.
[20:32] ---
    Good.
[20:36] ---
    It looks like it's closed already...
[20:39] ---
    Don't worry!
[20:46] ---
    Wow!
[20:48] ---
    I'm sorry. I wanted to actually ride
    inside the gondola for real...
[20:52] ---
    It's okay.
[20:54] ---
    You can't experience something
    like this every day, after all.
[20:59] ---
    This is...
[21:26] ---
    Thank you, Mr. Hughes.
[21:29] ---
    You shouldn't get hung up
    over making a date "go well."
[21:32] ---
    Don't think about that, just
    go with the flow, naturally.
[21:40] ---
    Oh, yeah...
[21:41] ---
    Girls love the night view.
    I'd say that much, at least.
[21:47] ---
    Thanks to Mr. Hughes, we
    had a successful date!
[21:58] ---
    That's...
[22:01] ---
    Agent Hughes.
[22:03] ---
    Did you find something?
[22:06] ---
    Yes. There's a boy with the Ghost.
[22:14] ---
    Joey Jones.
[22:20] [SONG] ---
    "Can you hear this voice?"
[22:24] [SONG] ---
    I've been calling that, always, from deep within my heart.
[22:34] [SONG] ---
    Would you, all alone, let another lonely one be next to you?
[22:45] [SONG] ---
    Because together it's not lonely, it's twoly.
[22:51] [SONG] ---
    See, you're not alone any longer.
[22:57] [SONG] ---
    Just because there's no one next to me
[22:59] [SONG] ---
    doesn't mean that I'm lonely!
[23:02] [SONG] ---
    For someone to notice this pain
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    that heart must have surely cried.
[23:13] [SONG] ---
    Right now, we'll crush to bits
[23:16] [SONG] ---
    the fortress of our limitless sadness!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I'll take you with me!
[23:24] [SONG] ---
    Got it? I'm running through at full power.
[23:27] [SONG] ---
    To where you're waiting, left behind
[23:31] [SONG] ---
    in the place of tears...
[23:35] [SONG] ---
    I believe in you, with burning passion!
[23:39] [SONG] ---
    Come to me!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    Everyone, farewell. I am leaving this city.
[23:58] ---
    With their identities revealed to the NIA,
[24:01] ---
    Joey, Denton, as well as Psy all flee.
[24:05] ---
    Completely and utterly surrounded,
[24:08] ---
    can Joey and the others really slip through?
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #13: Getaway!
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:45] ---
    Everyone is in position.
[01:47] ---
    We're prepared to break in.
[01:49] ---
    Agent Hughes... Your orders, Sir?
[01:52] ---
    Wait a moment. What is this article?
[01:54] ---
    This isn't the way I like to do things!
[01:58] ---
    Next time, wait for my approval.
[02:01] ---
    Yes, Sir.
[02:02] ---
    Okay. We'll head in the front door.
[02:05] ---
    But...
[02:06] ---
    It'll be fine.
[02:12] ---
    Mr. Jones!
[02:18] ---
    Whaddaya want so early?
[02:22] ---
    We're from the NIA. This is Joesph
    Carter Jones's house, correct?
[02:27] ---
    Yeah... So?
[02:29] ---
    We need to talk. Is he home?
[02:33] ---
    Dunno. Go and check for yourself.
[02:37] ---
    In that case, we'll be happy to.
[03:10] ---
    I don't see him!
[03:17] ---
    Contact the local authorities.
[03:19] ---
    Send out pictures of the boy and his
    accomplice to be searched for over a wide area.
[03:22] ---
    Cordon off all major roadways and
    stake out checkpoints at all the interchanges!
[03:26] ---
    Seal off Center City!
[03:40] ---
    I'm home!
[03:42] ---
    Oh, Joey!
[03:44] ---
    You were out quite late.
[03:46] ---
    Yeah, well...
[03:49] ---
    So how'd it go, you little bugger!
[03:52] ---
    How'd it go?
[03:53] ---
    Don't play dumb!
[03:56] ---
    You were out on a date, right?
[03:58] ---
    Had a lot of fun all night long, did we?
[04:01] ---
    Oww!
[04:06] ---
    You two sure get along.
[04:07] ---
    Grandma, that's not it!
[04:11] ---
    She's got me in a headlock!
[04:24] ---
    Good night...
[04:26] ---
    Lina.
[04:41] ---
    Hello. This is the Jones residence...
[04:44] ---
    Joey, is that you? It's Alan Smithee.
[04:47] ---
    Professor Denton?
[04:49] ---
    Oh, Alan, right!
[04:50] ---
    What's up?
[04:51] ---
    You see, tomorrow's the date!
[04:55] ---
    That's the emergency evacuation code!
[04:57] ---
    Did you hear me?
[04:58] ---
    R-Right! So, where's the party at?
[05:01] ---
    The movie opens in October.
[05:04] ---
    Oh, and this is off-the-record.
[05:07] ---
    Got it?
[05:08] ---
    Right.
[05:08] ---
    So, please try to avoid being seen by anyone.
[05:12] ---
    You wouldn't want to bother the other
    people in the neighborhood, right?
[05:42] ---
    Sis! Hey, Sis!
[05:50] ---
    What's all the racket about?
[05:52] ---
    Sis, I have something important
    I need to talk about.
[06:16] ---
    Beware of Global Warming!
[06:19] ---
    Eliminate greenhouse gases,
    and protect our Earth!
[06:23] ---
    Thank you. I'm heading out, Sis.
[06:23] ---
    The glaciers and north pole are melting!
[06:26] ---
    And the temperature is going up!
[06:28] ---
    The sea level is also rising!
[06:38] ---
    Looks like you made it here safely.
[06:40] ---
    Professor Denton! Psy, too!
[06:44] ---
    Do you understand the situation?
[06:46] ---
    Your phone call was the emergency
    evacuation code, but...
[06:50] ---
    Yeah, that worked pretty well.
[06:53] ---
    I'm sure the people on the
    wiretaps are totally confused.
[06:56] ---
    There was a car parked outside as well.
[07:00] ---
    Did something happen?
[07:01] ---
    It started with the out-of-control
    robot incident yesterday.
[07:05] ---
    Then, that was...
[07:07] ---
    Your connection to Heroman has
    been revealed to the government.
[07:11] ---
    I bet they've been investigating
    for quite a while.
[07:15] ---
    So that's why they set
    up that bogus accident!
[07:18] ---
    Well, that's that.
[07:20] ---
    Whoa there, buddy! What
    are you talking about?
[07:23] ---
    The out-of-control robot yesterday, and
    the building accident were both set-ups!
[07:28] ---
    All for the purpose of uncovering
    Heroman's true identity.
[07:33] ---
    Um, Professor Denton...
[07:36] ---
    Why don't we explain the circumstances
    to the people from the government?
[07:38] ---
    If we do that, then...
[07:39] ---
    It's no use.
[07:41] ---
    If they were interested in talking, then
    they wouldn't have put out this report.
[07:43] ---
    Report?
[07:45] ---
    I guess someone didn't watch the news.
[07:51] ---
    According to the report on
    the out-of-control robot,
[07:55] ---
    Heroman attacked the
    reconstruction equipment.
[07:57] ---
    They covered it up as the robot
    counterattacking and driving away Heroman.
[08:03] ---
    They seriously made out
    Heroman to be the bad guy.
[08:05] ---
    Oh, no!
[08:09] ---
    Give me a break! It's all
    the government's damn plot!
[08:14] ---
    This isn't right!
[08:15] ---
    Heroman didn't do anything bad!
[08:20] ---
    This isn't child's play.
[08:25] ---
    The government has officially labeled
    Heroman as a remnant of the Skrugg.
[08:32] ---
    What should I do now?
[08:35] ---
    You should leave the city.
[08:38] ---
    The government goons are probably pulling
    out all the stops to capture you and Heroman.
[08:43] ---
    You have to get away from here as quickly as-
[08:45] ---
    You've got to be kidding me!
[08:48] ---
    Joey saved Center City from the Skrugg!
[08:52] ---
    He's a hero!
[08:54] ---
    So what were we fighting for then?
[08:57] ---
    I don't even know anymore!
[09:00] ---
    There is still a chance to escape!
[09:02] ---
    Or rather, I'd like to believe there is.
[09:04] ---
    What's with the uncertainty?
[09:08] ---
    I don't want to leave this city.
[09:11] ---
    I know how you feel.
[09:13] ---
    But if you're caught here, it's game over.
[09:15] ---
    If you can at least escape,
[09:17] ---
    you can find a way to prove your innocence!
[09:23] ---
    There's no other way right now.
[09:26] ---
    Understand, Joey?
[09:34] ---
    Ah, sure I get it.
[09:36] ---
    So we all up and skedaddle?
[09:41] ---
    We're in this together, after all.
[09:43] ---
    Wait, you can't!
[09:45] ---
    Come on, Joey. Don't make
    me say it twice, sheesh.
[09:51] ---
    Psy...
[09:55] ---
    Then, shall we go?
[10:16] ---
    What are we going to do now?
[10:18] ---
    I have an eccentric scientist friend of mine.
[10:21] ---
    He hates other people
    and lives like a hermit.
[10:24] ---
    He's the perfect person to hide out with.
[10:28] ---
    Well, if he's a friend of yours...
[10:30] ---
    He lives deep in the mountains of Nevada.
[10:33] ---
    We've got to run away there somehow.
[10:39] ---
    So to do that we have
    to bust out of Center City
[10:42] ---
    while it's being staked
    out from top to bottom.
[11:04] ---
    What's with this?
[11:06] ---
    Don't complain. It's orders
    from the government.
[11:10] ---
    Our reporting and investigation was perfect!
[11:13] ---
    So why are they saying something like this?
[11:15] ---
    I'm sure it's something very important.
[11:18] ---
    We're talking about aliens here, after all.
[11:20] ---
    I... don't like this.
[11:24] ---
    Well, neither do I.
[11:26] ---
    Is that really how you feel?
[11:28] ---
    Yeah, of course I do.
[11:30] ---
    It makes me shiver seeing how they've
    twisted that footage I shot of the truth.
[11:40] ---
    The truth, huh?
[11:50] ---
    Just so you know, I ain't talkin'.
[11:54] ---
    But before we get to that, would you
    mind explaining what's going on?
[11:58] ---
    Holly Jones, the boy's older sister.
[12:01] ---
    You've only recently returned to Center City.
[12:04] ---
    It seems like you were living in New
    York trying to be a musician beforehand.
[12:08] ---
    How do you know all that?
[12:14] ---
    You're quite the easy one to read.
[12:20] ---
    Do you know anything about Joey's secret?
[12:24] ---
    Secret?
[12:25] ---
    What are you talking about?
[12:27] ---
    I see. Then, on to the next question.
[12:31] ---
    What's Joey like?
[12:34] ---
    Just like I asked.
[12:37] ---
    Don't read too much into it.
    Will you tell me about him?
[12:44] ---
    I'm sorry for waking you up
    in the middle of the night.
[12:48] ---
    What time is it?
[12:50] ---
    I can't tell you the details.
[12:53] ---
    But I might not be able to
    come back for a little while.
[12:56] ---
    What? Are you going somewhere?
[13:00] ---
    Please take care of Grandma, okay?
[13:04] ---
    Joey...
[13:06] ---
    You're...
[13:07] ---
    There's not much time. I have to go.
[13:12] ---
    Is there anything I can do?
[13:14] ---
    Thanks. But I don't want to get you involved.
[13:18] ---
    You're my little brother.
    What's with all the secrets?
[13:25] ---
    Joey's a good kid.
[13:51] ---
    How is it?
[13:52] ---
    Nope. This road's no good either.
[13:56] ---
    There are checkpoints everywhere.
[13:59] ---
    Um...
[14:01] ---
    Maybe it'd be better for me to go alone.
[14:04] ---
    I can't get everyone involved...
[14:06] ---
    That's not the problem!
[14:10] ---
    Well, it's true that you might be
    able to escape more easily on your own.
[14:14] ---
    But it'd be better to have a car.
[14:17] ---
    And you've got to have your friends
    with you for encouragement, right?
[14:21] ---
    You think you can handle
    this all by yourself?
[14:24] ---
    Psy...
[14:25] ---
    Prof. Denton...
[14:27] ---
    Professor, we've got to slip
    out of this city somehow.
[14:30] ---
    Yeah, I know!
[14:32] ---
    But, how?
[14:35] ---
    Well, we'll be needing you
    and Heroman's power for that.
[14:42] ---
    Report.
[14:44] ---
    Right. We have not yet found them.
[14:46] ---
    However we have staked out all the highways
    and interstates with checkpoints.
[14:51] ---
    Not a single ant could slip by.
[14:54] ---
    That'd be nice if it were true.
[14:57] ---
    We're up against some
    super advanced technology.
[14:59] ---
    We don't know how much of our
    common knowledge will apply.
[15:04] ---
    Joey's older sister didn't know anything.
[15:07] ---
    Which means there's no point in staying here.
[15:10] ---
    I wish I could get ahead
    of them, if it's possible.
[15:16] ---
    Got it? Here's the plan.
[15:19] ---
    All the main roads have checkpoints set up.
[15:23] ---
    First, Joey and Heroman
    cause a distraction here.
[15:27] ---
    If they do that, most of the unit
    in this area should transfer over.
[15:31] ---
    If Heroman appears, there's no reason
    to have the checkpoints anymore,
[15:35] ---
    But just in case we'll make another
    small distraction over here.
[15:40] ---
    While they are focused on that,
    we'll break through the checkpoint.
[15:44] ---
    Then Joey wraps things up,
[15:48] ---
    and we meet back up here.
[15:50] ---
    Got it.
[15:57] ---
    Then, let's begin!
[15:59] ---
    Right!
[16:14] ---
    Heroman... Engage!
[16:43] ---
    Why head toward the mountains?
[16:46] ---
    The Ghost is a mysterious existence
    with powers that we don't understand.
[16:51] ---
    But we do know it has some
    connection with that boy Joey.
[16:55] ---
    If it's connected to a human, than we can
    use human thinking to predict where it goes.
[17:00] ---
    So then...
[17:01] ---
    They wouldn't be in a
    city or the coast, right?
[17:04] ---
    There aren't enough places to hide.
[17:06] ---
    There's also a high probability of involving
    innocent people in battles there.
[17:11] ---
    I think he'd try very hard to avoid that.
[17:14] ---
    Emergency transmission!
[17:16] ---
    The Ghost has been spotted!
[17:18] ---
    Where?
[17:19] ---
    Off Route 6!
[17:21] ---
    In the mountains!
[17:32] ---
    Halt! Halt or we'll shoot!
[17:34] ---
    Idiot! Do you think it understands us?
[17:36] ---
    We've got standing orders to fire at will.
[17:39] ---
    Fire!
[17:49] ---
    Why'd it turn out like this?
[18:11] ---
    What are you doing? After it!
[18:20] ---
    Go! Hurry!
[18:23] ---
    It's begun.
[18:27] ---
    Professor, is everything set?
[18:29] ---
    Everything's A-OK.
[18:31] ---
    Now, time for us to start, too.
[18:39] ---
    All right, now!
[18:47] ---
    What's this?
[18:48] ---
    It's the enemy!
[18:52] ---
    How scary!
[18:54] ---
    Run for your lives!
[19:06] ---
    All right!
[19:07] ---
    We've successfully broken
    through the checkpoint!
[19:10] ---
    Joey, can you hear us?
[19:12] ---
    Yeah!
[19:13] ---
    All that's left is to meet up where we said.
[19:15] ---
    Got it.
[19:18] ---
    After him!
[19:29] ---
    Heroman...
[19:33] ---
    Magnecto!
[19:48] ---
    What the...
[20:04] ---
    All right. That should do it.
[20:10] ---
    Target acquired!
[20:12] ---
    Good! Pursue it!
[20:14] ---
    Don't let them get away!
[20:15] ---
    Heroman, over here!
[20:31] ---
    Should we attack?
[20:33] ---
    There's no need.
[20:35] ---
    We're faster than they are.
[20:37] ---
    Expand out the personnel on the ground.
[20:39] ---
    Encircle them so they have nowhere to escape.
[20:41] ---
    Roger.
[20:42] ---
    Attention, all personnel!
[20:44] ---
    The Ghost is currently at
    point 207 heading north!
[20:49] ---
    There's no end to this...
[20:51] ---
    What should I do?
[20:55] ---
    That's...
[20:57] ---
    Damn! It's an abandoned coal mine!
[21:06] ---
    Shoot! We lost them!
[21:08] ---
    Should we land?
[21:10] ---
    It'd be no use, considering who they are.
[21:13] ---
    He's probably already vanished.
[21:34] ---
    Joey, welcome back.
[21:38] ---
    Everyone!
[21:40] ---
    You were pretty late. You had us worried.
[21:42] ---
    Sorry, a lot of stuff came up.
[21:45] ---
    Well, I'm glad you're okay.
[21:47] ---
    We don't have much time. Let's
    hurry and get out of here.
[21:56] ---
    What's the matter, Joey?
[21:58] ---
    It's nothing! I'm coming.
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    Professor Denton!
[23:55] ---
    Psy!
[23:58] ---
    Under the dogged pursuit of NIA,
[24:01] ---
    his friends make themselves
    sacrifices, falling out...
[24:05] ---
    Joey continues to escape, in despair,
[24:08] ---
    when who else appears but...
[24:11] ---
    Next time on Heroman #14: Beleaguer!
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:51] ---
    Why? Why did it turn out like this?
[01:55] ---
    All we wanted to do was
    to protect Center City...
[02:03] ---
    Why...
[02:07] ---
    What? We broke through the checkpoints.
[02:10] ---
    They don't know where we're headed.
[02:13] ---
    Now all we need to do is head to our
    destination without sticking out.
[02:17] ---
    Exactly!
[02:18] ---
    Although, don't let down your guard.
[02:22] ---
    What's with the long face?
[02:25] ---
    No, it's nothing really...
[02:26] ---
    Don't worry, we'll get through this somehow!
[02:30] ---
    I think you're being a
    bit too optimistic there.
[02:33] ---
    Fine, then how should I be?
[02:35] ---
    Our journey is going to
    get rough from now on.
[02:39] ---
    Even after we escape to my
    friend's place in Nevada...
[02:43] ---
    Are you listening, Joey?
[02:45] ---
    To clear Heroman's name,
[02:48] ---
    all kinds of challenges are
    going to stand in our way.
[02:52] ---
    And to get through them, we're
    going to need Heroman's power,
[02:57] ---
    and all the experience you
    have gained to this point.
[03:00] ---
    It goes without saying that we'll need
    Heroman to grow his powers even further.
[03:07] ---
    Heroman's powers?
[03:09] ---
    I'm not saying you need to be
    constantly worried about it.
[03:11] ---
    But, you mustn't relax, ever.
[03:19] ---
    Yeah, that's the spirit!
[03:21] ---
    Can't go to battle on
    an empty stomach, right?
[03:24] ---
    First, we have a meal.
[03:27] ---
    And we'll stock up while we're at it.
[03:29] ---
    Music to my ears!
[03:42] ---
    The coal mine he ran into is a
    twisted maze of countless tunnels.
[03:47] ---
    It's pointless. He's already
    escaped from Center City.
[03:52] ---
    The question is, where is he heading?
[03:55] ---
    We'll continue with the checkpoints
    on the major roadways.
[03:59] ---
    The search is already
    on for Denton's vehicle.
[04:02] ---
    We can also put up in various locations...
[04:04] ---
    All we can do is wait, then.
[04:07] ---
    Until he makes a mistake.
[04:11] ---
    Agent Hughes.
[04:12] ---
    What is it?
[04:14] ---
    Dr. Minami is here to see you.
[04:34] ---
    The inclement weather on the east coast
    is affecting more than 20,000 people.
[04:40] ---
    Now, continuing to the next story.
[04:43] ---
    With regards to the battle between
    police and a mysterious power
[04:46] ---
    in the outskirts of Center City
    that happened the other day,
[04:48] ---
    the government believes the probability is
    high that it was a remnant of the Skrugg.
[04:55] ---
    Although there was some damage from the
    incident, they were successful in driving it away.
[05:00] ---
    It looks like they prevented
    it from entering the city.
[05:03] ---
    What the heck are they
    saying? It was their doing!
[05:07] ---
    Why are they saying that?
[05:09] ---
    Public opinion is important.
[05:12] ---
    If they can convince people
    they're fighting "evil,"
[05:15] ---
    then they can fight without holding back.
[05:18] ---
    We're up against the government here.
[05:19] ---
    Don't go getting upset
    about every little thing.
[05:24] ---
    Now, the next story.
[05:26] ---
    A middle school teacher and
    a student have gone missing.
[05:31] ---
    They have been identified as Center City
    Middle School teacher Mr. Matthew Denton,
[05:36] ---
    and this student, Mr. Joseph Carter Jones.
[05:41] ---
    The police believe they may be
    involved with some incidents,
[05:44] ---
    and have opened up a criminal investigation.
[05:46] ---
    If anyone has any information, please
    contact your local law enforcement department.
[05:48] ---
    Well, that is surprising.
[05:50] ---
    They'll even go this far?
[05:53] ---
    And wait, what am I, chopped liver?
[05:56] ---
    We've got to get out of here, quick.
[06:06] ---
    It looks like we should
    avoid eating out for now.
[06:09] ---
    Sheesh, it's like we're wanted men.
[06:20] ---
    Got it? Try not to stand out at all.
[06:23] ---
    We'll get our shopping
    done quickly and smoothly.
[06:28] ---
    I may have told you before, but please
    don't place too great a hope on my wallet.
[06:44] ---
    I can't stand it!
[06:46] ---
    That incident the other
    day was right near here!
[06:48] ---
    Don't worry, the government's handling it.
[06:51] ---
    They'll get 'im soon.
[06:53] ---
    Some remnant of the Skrugg isn't
    anything to be worried about.
[06:56] ---
    But anyway, what do you
    think that white alien is?
[06:59] ---
    It has such an evil face!
[07:03] ---
    Joey!
[07:09] ---
    Joey...
[07:12] ---
    Let's hurry and finish the shopping.
[07:15] ---
    Yeah. Let's do that.
[07:18] ---
    Let's see here...
[07:21] ---
    Which would be good?
[07:27] ---
    Something the matter?
[07:29] ---
    No...
[07:31] ---
    I'm going to the bathroom.
[07:53] ---
    Hello?
[07:55] ---
    Lina...
[07:56] ---
    Joey? It's you, Joey, right?
[07:59] ---
    What's happened?
[08:00] ---
    I saw about Heroman on TV...
[08:03] ---
    There were men in black asking
    about you around your house.
[08:07] ---
    And Prof. Denton has gone missing, too!
[08:11] ---
    I'm sorry, a lot has happened.
[08:13] ---
    Anyway, Joey...
[08:15] ---
    Are you okay?
[08:16] ---
    Yeah! The Professor and Psy are safe as well.
[08:19] ---
    I wouldn't say we're doing
    super or anything, though...
[08:22] ---
    Is there anything I can do?
[08:25] ---
    Yeah. There's one thing I'd like to ask.
[08:28] ---
    What is it? Anything you want!
[08:30] ---
    Don't worry about us.
[08:34] ---
    Joey...
[08:38] ---
    I'll see you again, right?
[08:43] ---
    I have to hang up now.
[08:44] ---
    Joey, Joe-
[08:50] ---
    Phone trace is complete.
[08:51] ---
    4649 North Street, Lukesville.
[08:55] ---
    It's a public phone inside the grocery store.
[08:57] ---
    Great, good going.
[08:59] ---
    Use the satellite data!
[09:00] ---
    Determine which one is
    Denton's vehicle immediately!
[09:03] ---
    When you've found it, track it!
[09:06] ---
    We'll head there immediately.
[09:08] ---
    Mr. Hughes.
[09:10] ---
    Let me say something first.
[09:13] ---
    We're up against technology
    that is out-of-this-world.
[09:15] ---
    If you continue using these half-hearted
    tactics you will fail again.
[09:19] ---
    Half-hearted?
[09:21] ---
    It seems to me that you are more interested
    in the humans than the target itself.
[09:26] ---
    That's because we are up against humans here.
[09:28] ---
    That is how we managed to
    track them down, after all.
[09:30] ---
    Well, fine then.
[09:33] ---
    But I'll have you remember this:
[09:36] ---
    We are not meant for fighting humans!
[09:40] ---
    Then I'll say something as well:
[09:42] ---
    I am in command here, and don't forget it.
[09:52] ---
    I wonder just how long you'll
    be able to say that, Mr. Hughes.
[09:58] ---
    He's only involved in the investigation because
    of pressure from his connections to the military...
[10:13] ---
    At this pace I think we'll arrive
    faster than I anticipated.
[10:17] ---
    Faster... Like, how fast?
[10:19] ---
    Including rest, another two days or so.
[10:25] ---
    Professor Denton.
[10:27] ---
    What is it?
[10:29] ---
    Something is strange.
[10:30] ---
    Strange?
[10:35] ---
    We're in a town, but...
[10:37] ---
    ...there are no people.
[10:40] ---
    You're right.
[10:42] ---
    It couldn't be...
[10:51] ---
    How'd they find us?
[10:53] ---
    That's not what's important right now!
[10:56] ---
    What's important is...
[10:58] ---
    ...how we can get through this crisis!
[11:01] ---
    Stop! Stop or we shoot!
[11:04] ---
    Damn it!
[11:08] ---
    After them!
[11:09] ---
    Hurry!
[11:14] ---
    I'll draw them away.
[11:16] ---
    We're counting on you!
[11:17] ---
    Psy, is there some good place to meet up?
[11:20] ---
    There's some warehouses two blocks ahead!
[11:22] ---
    Let's meet behind there!
[11:23] ---
    Got it!
[11:27] ---
    Heroman... Engage!
[11:39] ---
    It's here!
[11:40] ---
    That's the target?
[11:41] ---
    Prepare to fire!
[11:46] ---
    Heroman... Go!
[12:23] ---
    In the middle of the town...
[12:25] ---
    Heroman!
[12:52] ---
    What are you doing? After him!
[13:02] ---
    Something that giant, disappeared?
[13:07] ---
    Keisha, the military's on the move!
[13:10] ---
    I've been waiting for this!
[13:11] ---
    Hurry up, we're leaving immediately!
[13:13] ---
    I know!
[13:29] ---
    We're back.
[13:30] ---
    Good. We managed to get away
    from them thanks to you.
[13:35] ---
    So it seems like they haven't got
    us completely surrounded this time.
[13:39] ---
    What do you plan to do?
[13:41] ---
    You expect to escape in such a big vehicle?
[13:44] ---
    I think we can.
[13:45] ---
    But I'll need everyone's help.
[13:49] ---
    Psy, get in the back.
[13:51] ---
    You want me to cook or something?
[13:54] ---
    Turn the transceiver in
    the back to channel 7.
[13:58] ---
    Roger that!
[13:59] ---
    After that, flip the switch on the side.
[14:03] ---
    What's he planning?
[14:05] ---
    We'll monitor their transmissions!
[14:07] ---
    That'll take the wind out of their sails!
[14:09] ---
    Target has been lost!
[14:11] ---
    It worked!
[14:12] ---
    I think the vehicle was proceeding north on 3rd!
[14:16] ---
    Encircle a large perimeter!
[14:18] ---
    Roger.
[14:19] ---
    We'll use the satellite to track them down.
[14:21] ---
    I won't let you do that.
[14:25] ---
    What's going on?
[14:27] ---
    Why did they ignore my orders to
    stand by and start the plan?
[14:31] ---
    They received an order to start a
    direct attack if they had the chance...
[14:40] ---
    Is this Minami's doing?
[14:43] ---
    This is a war.
[14:45] ---
    Victory goes to the one who strikes first!
[14:56] ---
    What's going on?
[14:57] ---
    We still haven't found the target!
[14:59] ---
    Target has changed to heading east!
[15:01] ---
    It seems like they're heading
    to the highway entrance!
[15:04] ---
    To repeat: The target is to the east!
[15:06] ---
    Damn it! Move out immediately!
[15:09] ---
    Gotcha!
[15:11] ---
    Good! All clear over here, too.
[15:18] ---
    I can just imagine their freaked out faces...
[15:20] ---
    What have you done?
[15:22] ---
    What? Just a little prank.
[15:29] ---
    Now we head to the west which should
    be unguarded, and we're home free!
[15:37] ---
    Really?
[15:38] ---
    They can do something like that?
[15:41] ---
    What's happened?
[15:42] ---
    It seems that the military satellites and
    transportation systems have been hacked!
[15:47] ---
    What?
[15:48] ---
    The satellite, tracking system, and
    all security cameras in this area...
[15:53] ---
    We can't operate any of them!
[15:56] ---
    What in the world?
[15:58] ---
    Where are our units located right now?
[16:01] ---
    The target was heading east,
[16:04] ---
    so our forces are spread out around
    the crucial entrance to the highway.
[16:09] ---
    The target's to the west!
[16:11] ---
    Move our forces immediately!
[16:13] ---
    Y-Yes, sir!
[16:14] ---
    Use secure channels for communication.
[16:17] ---
    Secure channels?
[16:18] ---
    We're up against someone who
    can hack military satellites.
[16:21] ---
    It'd be an easy matter for them
    to intercept communications.
[16:24] ---
    Hurry! Don't waste any time!
[16:26] ---
    Roger!
[16:32] ---
    All right! We're almost out of the town.
[16:45] ---
    Stop this futile resistance!
    You have nowhere left to run!
[16:52] ---
    Surrender!
[16:54] ---
    If you surrender, you won't be harmed!
[17:01] ---
    Yeah, like we'd honestly believe that.
[17:05] ---
    I repeat, surrender!
[17:12] ---
    Negotiations have broken down!
[17:15] ---
    Begin the attack!
[18:04] ---
    Where's your friend?
[18:06] ---
    Friend?
[18:07] ---
    I dunno... What was I doing again?
[18:18] ---
    Get outta here, Joey.
[18:27] ---
    What happened?
[18:29] ---
    We've captured Denton!
[18:30] ---
    But we can't find the boy or the target!
[18:35] ---
    What?!
[18:38] ---
    Go back! Go back!
[18:41] ---
    So the Ghost wasn't being
    transported by vehicle?
[18:44] ---
    I don't know, but we haven't found the Ghost!
[18:50] ---
    Land the helicopter. I'm
    getting off on the ground.
[18:57] ---
    That boy will try to avoid fighting.
[19:02] ---
    So in that case, he'd...
[19:08] ---
    Begin questioning him.
[19:10] ---
    Spread out a search party
    focusing on the forest area.
[19:14] ---
    Got it?
[19:15] ---
    Roger!
[19:21] ---
    Howard...
[19:22] ---
    Yes, sir?
[19:23] ---
    You're in charge.
[19:24] ---
    Yes?
[19:25] ---
    Then, what about you?
[19:27] ---
    I'm really not cut out for group operations.
[19:32] ---
    If anything happens, contact us!
[19:35] ---
    Roger that!
[19:58] ---
    Are you okay, Psy?
[19:59] ---
    Yeah...
[20:00] ---
    ...is what I'd like to say, anyway.
[20:02] ---
    But I'm obviously holding you back.
[20:04] ---
    That's not true!
[20:06] ---
    I feel a lot more confident with you here!
[20:10] ---
    It's more important that you get
    away from here than feel safe!
[20:15] ---
    Go on ahead!
[20:17] ---
    No!
[20:18] ---
    I can't leave you behind, Psy!
[20:21] ---
    So you want the two of us to be caught?
[20:24] ---
    Go!
[20:25] ---
    As long as you two aren't captured...
[20:27] ---
    The Professor and I will
    handle things somehow!
[20:30] ---
    But!
[20:30] ---
    Get outta here, Joey!
[20:32] ---
    For our sakes, as well...
[20:35] ---
    Psy...
[20:37] ---
    Okay?
[20:49] ---
    Don't worry. I'll buy you plenty of time.
[21:12] ---
    Now, then...
[21:14] ---
    Let's rock this place real good.
[21:17] ---
    It might not work on humans, but it'll
    get their attention, that's for sure!
[22:02] ---
    I found you.
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    Is it really okay for me to trust you?
[23:56] ---
    Just as he thought he'd escaped,
    he meets NIA Agent Hughes.
[24:01] ---
    But what he says is the opposite
    of what Joey expected.
[24:05] ---
    With the possibility of talking reopened,
[24:08] ---
    the situation seems to be heading
    to a peaceful conclusion, when...
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #15: Revolt!
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:31] ---
    Negotiations have broken down!
[01:33] ---
    Begin the attack!
[01:46] ---
    I found you.
[02:00] ---
    Joey! I've been looking for you.
[02:04] ---
    Hey, you've forgotten me already?
[02:06] ---
    It's me!
[02:10] ---
    Well...
[02:13] ---
    See, me?
[02:22] ---
    M-Mr. Hughes?
[02:24] ---
    I'm Agent Hughes from the NIA, and
    I report directly to the President.
[02:29] ---
    I'm the person in charge
    of this series of missions.
[02:34] ---
    Will you listen to what I have to say?
[02:39] ---
    I can understand why you're apprehensive.
[02:41] ---
    But if you want to run away, you
    could wait until after we talk, right?
[02:45] ---
    I'm a real sucker for coffee, see.
[02:57] ---
    Still? You still haven't found them?
[03:00] ---
    The army is getting special reinforcements
    and searching the forest.
[03:05] ---
    What? Special forces?
[03:18] ---
    Damn it!
[03:20] ---
    With all the big boys here, what
    do they think they're doing?
[03:24] ---
    The Ghost is one thing, but why is it
    taking so long to find one little brat?
[03:28] ---
    We are continuing to use thermal
    sensors to perform our own search.
[03:33] ---
    I believe we will find them
    eventually if we stay calm...
[03:36] ---
    That's not the problem!
[03:39] ---
    The problem here is that we adults
    are being made fools of by a child!
[03:43] ---
    Is that so?
[03:44] ---
    Yes, it is!
[03:46] ---
    I'm gonna show that brat who he's dealing with!
[03:51] ---
    Is that so?
[03:53] ---
    Yes, it is!
[04:01] ---
    It's not as good as Hilly's, but it's not bad.
[04:05] ---
    Now, what should we talk about?
[04:09] ---
    Did you know from the beginning?
[04:11] ---
    I wish...
[04:13] ---
    If I had known, we could have
    worked something out earlier.
[04:18] ---
    But man, what a surprise to
    learn you knew the Ghost.
[04:24] ---
    Ghost?
[04:25] ---
    The robot.
[04:27] ---
    Heroman's name isn't Ghost!
[04:30] ---
    Oh, so you call it Heroman?
[04:33] ---
    So then, where is he now?
[04:38] ---
    What's the relationship between you
    and that robot... I mean, Heroman?
[04:46] ---
    Fine, then I'll go first.
[04:50] ---
    I received command of this
    operation two weeks ago.
[04:54] ---
    We got a shot of Heroman from a
    security camera at one of the scenes.
[04:59] ---
    In order to find out its identity,
    I came to Center City.
[05:06] ---
    Our mission is to confirm or deny the
    existence of hyper-advanced technology,
[05:11] ---
    as well as secure it.
[05:15] ---
    The government is scared.
[05:17] ---
    Of your power, that is.
[05:20] ---
    It's to be expected.
[05:21] ---
    Someone destroyed the Skrugg,
[05:23] ---
    who the entire might of the United
    States military wasn't able to scratch.
[05:27] ---
    And their identity is still a mystery.
[05:29] ---
    Well, that's...
[05:31] ---
    But I was thinking of doing something
    like this from the start.
[05:35] ---
    I'd like to talk with the Ghost.
[05:39] ---
    I mean, think about it!
[05:40] ---
    Somebody that wanted to conquer the world
    isn't going to help the city rebuild.
[05:45] ---
    Plus, all the people at the construction
    sites said the same thing:
[05:49] ---
    That you guys are allies of justice.
[05:53] ---
    Everyone said that about Heroman?
[05:56] ---
    Yup.
[06:03] ---
    I'm convinced now.
[06:05] ---
    A person who can smile like you can't be evil.
[06:09] ---
    Mr. Hughes...
[06:14] ---
    Would you tell me?
[06:16] ---
    Joey?
[06:18] ---
    About everything.
[06:29] ---
    Keep the altitude lower!
[06:31] ---
    Please, don't ask the impossible!
[06:32] ---
    You know what'll happen if
    we drop any lower, right?
[06:35] ---
    So you wanna get picked up on the military's
    radar and taken to the woodshed?
[06:40] ---
    This is the place, right?
[06:42] ---
    Stay calm, it'll be fine. My info is right.
[06:46] ---
    I sure hope it is.
[06:48] ---
    Don't underestimate the power of the press.
[06:50] ---
    It doesn't matter how much they try and keep
    people silent, the info always leaks out!
[06:55] ---
    A government plot...
[06:57] ---
    And behind it all is Dr. Minami with his deep
    connections to higher-ups in the military.
[07:03] ---
    We know who's behind it, so if we can bring
    it to light, this'll be a big scandal!
[07:07] ---
    All that's left is to pile on
    the pressure to broadcast it.
[07:11] ---
    And that's exactly why we're here!
[07:15] ---
    Wait a second, that's...
[07:26] ---
    That's...
[07:27] ---
    It's huge!
[07:32] ---
    Hey!
[07:33] ---
    Turn back at once!
[07:34] ---
    I'm not paid enough for this!
[07:36] ---
    I said turn back!
[07:40] ---
    Point 302, no sign of the target.
[07:43] ---
    Point 257, no sign of the target.
[07:50] ---
    I see. So it really was you
    who defeated the Skrugg.
[07:54] ---
    Yes. We were just trying to survive...
[07:59] ---
    It seems we've been trying to get
    rid of the saviors of the world.
[08:04] ---
    Why do you think it came to this?
[08:08] ---
    I apologize. I take full responsibility.
[08:12] ---
    If I had been able to speak with you
    first, this would never have happened.
[08:17] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[08:22] ---
    We have a reaction from the thermal sensor.
[08:25] ---
    Is it the Ghost?
[08:26] ---
    It does not seem to be the Ghost. We
    have confirmed a boy and Agent Hughes.
[08:32] ---
    What?
[08:33] ---
    What the hell is he doing?
[08:39] ---
    Um...
[08:42] ---
    What's going to happen now?
[08:44] ---
    You'll be taken for observation,
[08:46] ---
    and be subject to intense government
    experiments for the rest of your life in captivity.
[08:52] ---
    Is that what you thought?
[08:56] ---
    The power that destroyed the Skrugg
    is definitely something special.
[09:00] ---
    But turning the tables
[09:02] ---
    and using force to oppress someone with
    power greater than ours isn't right.
[09:10] ---
    First we need to decide on a way we can
    cooperate instead of being enemies.
[09:16] ---
    That's how I feel.
[09:18] ---
    Um, then...
[09:21] ---
    That's a promise. I report directly to the
    President of the United States, after all.
[09:26] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[09:30] ---
    You think I'll let you do that?
[09:33] ---
    First, let's end all this.
[09:36] ---
    After that we can talk at leisure.
[09:40] ---
    Doctor, your orders?
[09:41] ---
    Block his communications, obviously!
[09:44] ---
    Roger.
[10:17] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[10:21] ---
    Attention all forces! The target
    has been spotted at point 451!
[10:26] ---
    Commence attack at once!
[10:28] ---
    Dr. Minami!
[10:30] ---
    This NIA agent is cooperating with the target!
[10:35] ---
    He's a traitor to the United States,
    and is colluding with the Ghost!
[10:39] ---
    Eliminate him together with the Ghost!
[10:42] ---
    It is with regret that I now assume
    command of this operation from the NIA.
[10:48] ---
    However!
[10:50] ---
    I expect you all to deeply impress me!
[10:52] ---
    This battle will determine
    the fate of the entire world!
[10:56] ---
    You must completely destroy the target!
[10:58] ---
    I repeat: You must destroy the target!
[11:05] ---
    W-What's going on?
[11:08] ---
    As you can tell, I've been set up.
[11:10] ---
    For the time being, let's get away from here!
[11:13] ---
    Beginning attack toward target!
[11:17] ---
    Set up?
[11:19] ---
    An evil man who has wheedled
    his way into the government
[11:23] ---
    is trying to crush our peaceful negotiations!
[11:26] ---
    It's the doings of a man who knows
    how to deal with the military.
[11:30] ---
    Then what about your promise?
[11:33] ---
    Deal's off.
[11:34] ---
    If I'm dead, that is.
[11:40] ---
    But if I can get word through the appropriate
    channels, we can counter his plan.
[11:46] ---
    Well, that's why he's trying to silence me
    before I get a chance to get the word out.
[11:56] ---
    Um, I don't really understand.
[11:59] ---
    Basically, I can't die just yet.
[12:03] ---
    So, would you like to help me with that?
[12:08] ---
    I need your cooperation.
[12:15] ---
    Now, hurry and show yourself, Ghost!
[12:19] ---
    Heroman...
[12:22] ---
    Engage!
[12:35] ---
    Target confirmed. It is the Ghost.
[12:37] ---
    There it is!
[12:43] ---
    I'm counting on you, Joey!
[12:45] ---
    Heroman!
[13:08] ---
    Heroman!
[13:22] ---
    What happened?
[13:24] ---
    No damage?
[13:26] ---
    If we can stop them here...
[13:30] ---
    We're going to split up now.
[13:33] ---
    I'm going to find a way to send a message.
[13:35] ---
    Until then, I need you to keep their attention.
[13:39] ---
    Okay! I understand.
[13:41] ---
    Don't die on me.
[13:45] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[13:48] ---
    Yeah, thanks.
[13:55] ---
    If we can stop them here, then
    we won't have to run anymore!
[14:02] ---
    Perfect, perfect! This is
    all going according to plan!
[14:06] ---
    Amanorich and Stallion are
    at the scheduled location.
[14:10] ---
    Are they?
[14:12] ---
    Seems we're also right where we should be.
[14:15] ---
    First, we let the Ghost's combat ability
    be made clear during the military's attack.
[14:27] ---
    Then after they've had quite
    enough of the Ghost's power,
[14:32] ---
    I take the Ghost and crush it with my robot!
[14:35] ---
    Start up the electromagnetic pulse cannon!
[14:37] ---
    Yes, sir!
[14:39] ---
    Stallion!
[14:41] ---
    Leave this to me!
[14:51] ---
    Damn it! Our attacks are completely ineffective!
[14:54] ---
    Don't we have any stronger weapons?
[15:01] ---
    What was that?
[15:02] ---
    What was that just now?
[15:03] ---
    Who fired?
[15:23] ---
    Let me introduce you!
[15:25] ---
    This is art in movement!
[15:32] ---
    I, Dr. Minami, have invented the strongest,
    ultimate weapon in the entire universe!
[15:39] ---
    MR-1!
[15:43] ---
    MR-1?
[15:45] ---
    Now, let's begin Ghost! You minion of evil!
[15:50] ---
    I'll make sure you taste
    the wrath of justice!
[15:59] ---
    Take this!
[16:02] ---
    E!! M!! P!!
[16:24] ---
    I know! I know!
[16:27] ---
    I know your weakness!
[16:30] ---
    No need to pay that high tuition!
[16:34] ---
    I took data during our last battle!
[16:38] ---
    Incredible defensive ability.
[16:41] ---
    And even more incredible battle strength!
[16:44] ---
    It wouldn't be overstating it to say that you
    could defeat any weapon on this planet easily!
[16:52] ---
    However!
[16:53] ---
    You have a crucial weakness!
[16:58] ---
    And that is...
[17:00] ---
    You're not equipped with
    any long range weaponry!
[17:12] ---
    As long as I stay outside of your attack
    range, there's nothing to worry about!
[17:25] ---
    Hey, what's that light?
[17:27] ---
    Does anyone have any information?
[17:37] ---
    What's the matter? Feeling glum, Ghost?
[17:43] ---
    Nothing is going to be settled at this rate.
[17:46] ---
    I've got to find some way
    to get close to that robot.
[17:50] ---
    And in order to do that, I have
    to do something about that weapon.
[18:14] ---
    Finally noticed?
[18:15] ---
    This fearsome weapon is a indeed an
    electromagnetic pulse generator!
[18:21] ---
    Electromagnetic pulse?
[18:23] ---
    Listen up, boy!
[18:25] ---
    I, Dr. Minami, will lecture you uneducated fool!
[18:30] ---
    This electromagnetic pulse generator
[18:34] ---
    was developed from a system that spreads out
    electromagnetic waves over a large area,
[18:38] ---
    into a weapon that uses semiconductors
    and electricity for complete destruction!
[18:44] ---
    Electromagnetic waves?
[18:45] ---
    Even if it is hyper-advanced technology,
    the Ghost is still a machine!
[18:50] ---
    One hit with this and it'll be all over!
[18:55] ---
    Oh, really?
[18:58] ---
    Whatever, just set up the relay!
[19:00] ---
    This is an exclusive! A total scoop!
[19:03] ---
    It's meaningless unless we do it live!
[19:07] ---
    Give me a break! No edits, no way, no how!
[19:12] ---
    Yeah, none of the other media have noticed yet.
[19:14] ---
    This is the scoop of the century!
[19:17] ---
    I don't really mind either way...
[19:20] ---
    But it's already started.
[19:24] ---
    Hey, if you noticed then say something!
[19:29] ---
    Y-Yeah...
[19:30] ---
    Leo, you ready?
[19:32] ---
    Okay! All set!
[19:33] ---
    Hurry and connect the relay!
[19:35] ---
    We're heading to the scene!
[19:37] ---
    Hey, Keisha, wait!
[19:38] ---
    Go, please!
[19:40] ---
    Roger!
[19:45] ---
    Heroman!
[19:49] ---
    Child's play.
[19:51] ---
    Then how about this?
[20:01] ---
    Heroman!
[20:06] ---
    I've been waiting for this!
[20:12] ---
    It's over!
[20:17] ---
    Heroman!
[20:20] ---
    What?
[20:27] ---
    So you've figured out we can't
    fire in quick succession?
[20:29] ---
    Rapid charge!
[20:32] ---
    That's crazy!
[20:34] ---
    Impossible. Doing that would cause
    the machine to become immobile.
[20:41] ---
    Then how about this?
[20:45] ---
    Fire!
[20:52] ---
    Heroman!
[20:57] ---
    Why, you...
[21:06] ---
    Heroman...
[21:10] ---
    That's enough!
[21:12] ---
    Attention all forces! Halt hostilities at once!
[21:16] ---
    That's an order from the President
    of the United States of America!
[21:20] ---
    I repeat: End the battle!
[21:24] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[21:25] ---
    Sorry I took so long, Joey.
[21:29] ---
    This battle is over!
[21:32] ---
    Dr. Minami, surrender at once!
[21:36] ---
    This battle ends now!
[21:38] ---
    Hughes...
[21:41] ---
    Fine, I get it. Just like you asked...
[21:45] ---
    I'll end this battle now!
[22:07] ---
    Heroman!
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    This is bad... At this rate,
    Heroman's energy will...
[23:58] ---
    With his true intentions revealed, Dr.
    Minami continues his attack on Heroman.
[24:03] ---
    It's a standoff with Dr. Minami.
[24:06] ---
    Then, light is shined on the truth.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #16: Decision!
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:32] ---
    Dr. Minami?
[01:34] ---
    Yes. The man who offered to
    stop the Skrugg's sphere.
[01:40] ---
    Oh! Dr. Minami is working together
    with the NIA to capture the Ghost, yes?
[01:46] ---
    Yes, and he has used that position to
    seize control of some military units.
[01:51] ---
    What?!
[01:53] ---
    Hughes was the first to notice, and it seems
    he is attempting to regain control, but...
[01:57] ---
    Currently Minami has gone completely rogue.
[02:02] ---
    Let me introduce you!
[02:04] ---
    This is art in movement!
[02:07] ---
    MR-1!
[02:10] ---
    MR-1?
[02:12] ---
    I know! I know!
[02:15] ---
    I know your weakness!
[02:18] ---
    You're not equipped with
    any long range weaponry!
[02:22] ---
    As long as I stay outside of your attack
    range, there's nothing to worry about!
[02:27] ---
    Fire!
[02:36] ---
    Heroman...
[02:39] ---
    That's enough, Dr. Minami!
[02:42] ---
    Surrender at once!
[02:44] ---
    This battle ends now!
[02:46] ---
    Fine, I get it. Just like you asked...
[02:51] ---
    I'll end this battle now!
[03:15] ---
    Heroman has been...
[03:21] ---
    I did it! I finally did it!
[03:24] ---
    This is proof that my MR-1 is the
    most powerful in the universe!
[03:29] ---
    Now there is nothing left that
    can stand against my invention!
[03:51] ---
    What's this?
[03:54] ---
    Heroman's power comes from electricity.
[03:56] ---
    Heroman was born that night
    from a bolt of lightning.
[04:00] ---
    And all his techniques so far use electricity!
[04:11] ---
    So no matter how powerful that attack might be...
[04:14] ---
    ...if it uses the power of electricity...
[04:17] ---
    ...there's no way that it could defeat Heroman!
[04:21] ---
    Heroman...
[04:24] ---
    Go!
[04:27] ---
    Crap!
[04:31] ---
    That's the perfect distance for Heroman!
[04:35] ---
    I don't think so!
[04:49] ---
    Heroman!
[04:57] ---
    Emergency pullback!
[05:04] ---
    You think you can escape?
[05:06] ---
    Heroman...
[05:10] ---
    Magnecto!
[05:27] ---
    You annoying little...
[05:35] ---
    Did I get him?
[05:44] ---
    How dare you!
[06:01] ---
    You can't keep your distance any longer!
[06:16] ---
    Fine! I accept your challenge!
[06:19] ---
    Beating you to a pulp at your own
    specialty of hand-to-hand fighting,
[06:24] ---
    will make the MR-1's victory just that
    much more beautiful and convincing!
[06:37] ---
    It's on, Ghost!
[06:43] ---
    Dr. Minami, won't you stop already?
[06:46] ---
    Cease the fighting at once and surrender!
[06:49] ---
    Surrender?
[06:50] ---
    Yes! You are charged with treason!
[06:55] ---
    What might you be talking about?
[06:57] ---
    Playing dumb isn't going to work!
[06:58] ---
    You'd better be prepared for the consequences.
[07:01] ---
    Oh, I see. I really do apologize then.
[07:06] ---
    ...did you seriously expect me
    to say something like that?!
[07:11] ---
    Minami, you fiend!
[07:13] ---
    This conversation ends now!
[07:15] ---
    I think you people should keep quiet!
[07:18] ---
    Secretary!
[07:20] ---
    Roger.
[07:25] ---
    Oh, no! Everyone, emergency evasive maneuvers!
[07:36] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[07:38] ---
    What are you doing? Stabilize us already!
[07:40] ---
    I can't! All the electronic
    equipment is inoperable!
[07:44] ---
    That missile again?
[07:48] ---
    It might not work against the
    Ghost, but it sure works on you.
[07:52] ---
    Now then, with no more people getting in
    my way, I can fight to my heart's content!
[08:08] ---
    Look, smoke!
[08:10] ---
    Good, it seems they're at it again.
[08:12] ---
    H-Hey, isn't that it?
[08:21] ---
    I won't let you!
[08:24] ---
    I'll fling you around and around!
[08:35] ---
    Don't go thinking some chain
    is going to defeat me!
[08:40] ---
    Everyone, can you see what is happening here?
[08:44] ---
    This footage is the scoop of the century,
    brought to you exclusively by the All-American Network!
[08:50] ---
    The Ghost behind the incidents
    all over the news yesterday
[08:54] ---
    and a robot created with the intent
    of getting adopted into the military,
[08:57] ---
    are engaged in a fierce battle!
[09:04] ---
    That's...
[09:05] ---
    Impossible! I thought that
    there was a press gag order!
[09:10] ---
    That's a TV station?
[09:12] ---
    The press?
[09:15] ---
    Excellent!
[09:17] ---
    I'll crush you in front of a wide audience!
[09:24] ---
    Please look at the person
    underneath the helicopter!
[09:27] ---
    He's the leading robotics expert, Dr. Minami!
[09:30] ---
    Which means that robot with the giant arms
    must be the MR-1, which Dr. Minami created!
[09:38] ---
    The MR-1 was called in by the military in
    order to try and stop the Skrugg's sphere.
[09:44] ---
    But right before it could be used,
    the sphere stopped on its own.
[09:48] ---
    After that, it's been involved in
    the reconstruction of Center City!
[09:52] ---
    This robot has been custom reconfigured for battle,
[09:57] ---
    and is running wild!
[09:59] ---
    On the other hand the Ghost has often appeared
    in Center City helping with the reconstruction,
[10:04] ---
    and was thought to be an ally of justice
    among the citizens of the city!
[10:08] ---
    But thanks to certain "news" reports,
    uncertainty has grown about it...
[10:12] ---
    Yes! It was that news about the
    incident at the reconstruction site!
[10:24] ---
    Being flung around like this isn't
    going to get Heroman and me anywhere.
[10:28] ---
    What should I do?
[10:57] ---
    We've come out to a fun place, haven't we?
[11:01] ---
    Here we will decide this battle.
[11:10] ---
    Run, run!
[11:13] ---
    At least until you have no where left to stand!
[11:17] ---
    What is he...
[11:19] ---
    Heroman!
[11:23] ---
    Joey!
[11:25] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[11:27] ---
    You're hurt?
[11:28] ---
    Don't worry. Just a scratch.
[11:30] ---
    I'm sorry. I wasn't able to stop Minami myself.
[11:35] ---
    It's okay. This way the military
    people aren't targeting me, right?
[11:40] ---
    That's thanks to you, Mr. Hughes.
[11:45] ---
    Dr. Minami can think of nothing else than
    defeating Heroman with his own robot.
[11:52] ---
    Minami has been plotting all kinds of things to
    get the MR-1 officially adopted into the military.
[11:58] ---
    Heroman defeated the Skrugg before
    he was able to face off against them.
[12:03] ---
    So he thinks defeating the thing that destroyed
    the Skrugg will be the ultimate demonstration.
[12:09] ---
    That's why he turned Heroman into the bad guy?
[12:12] ---
    Yes, but that's not all.
[12:15] ---
    He completely loathes Heroman
    for taking his spotlight.
[12:20] ---
    That's why?
[12:23] ---
    Joey... I mean, Joseph Carter Jones...
[12:26] ---
    I have a request.
[12:29] ---
    This is an official request from
    the NIA, speaking for the President.
[12:33] ---
    Stop Dr. Minami going out of control.
[12:36] ---
    We want you to destroy the MR-1
    before there are any more victims.
[12:43] ---
    Yes, sir!
[12:47] ---
    Heroman...
[12:50] ---
    Go!
[13:06] ---
    I'll smash you to bits!
[13:12] ---
    This time I'll...
[13:23] ---
    How dare you!
[13:29] ---
    Heroman!
[13:32] ---
    Heroman!
[13:39] ---
    T-They fell!
[13:42] ---
    Heroman, I'm coming!
[13:49] ---
    This is...
[13:51] ---
    Could it be... His energy is...
[13:54] ---
    What in the world...
[13:58] ---
    What's the matter, Joey?
[14:00] ---
    Mr. Hughes, I need a favor!
[14:24] ---
    It seems like the Ghost is okay!
[14:26] ---
    Meanwhile the MR-1 is still
    underwater, with no sign of it!
[14:30] ---
    Has the battle been decided?
[14:32] ---
    Dr. Minami has been observing the battlefield.
[14:36] ---
    Damaged report: check.
[14:38] ---
    Balancers reconfigured.
[14:40] ---
    Standby power operational.
[14:42] ---
    MR-1, reactivate!
[14:59] ---
    Commence attack!
[15:06] ---
    The battle has started up again!
[15:09] ---
    But...
[15:10] ---
    This is bad, Joey!
[15:18] ---
    The dam! The dam is being destroyed
    by the attacks on Heroman from the MR-1!
[15:23] ---
    This isn't good... At this rate...
[15:36] ---
    Heroman!
[15:45] ---
    This is...
[15:54] ---
    The Ghost has started using himself
    to block the MR-1's spears!
[15:58] ---
    Fool! Even if you protect the damn,
[16:02] ---
    you'll be trashed to pieces!
[16:09] ---
    Heroman...
[16:12] ---
    Let's hurry.
[16:14] ---
    Joey!
[16:15] ---
    What could Dr. Minami be thinking?
[16:18] ---
    If the dam is destroyed,
[16:20] ---
    it's obvious there will be a large number
    of casualties from people downstream!
[16:23] ---
    And besides, Dr. Minami continues to attack
    relentlessly with the weapon he created
[16:29] ---
    while the Ghost, labeled as "evil" by the world,
[16:32] ---
    is doing everything it can to protect the dam!
[16:36] ---
    This is a live broadcast that
    has not been edited in any way!
[16:40] ---
    What does everyone feel when watching this?
[16:44] ---
    I can only see it one way!
[16:47] ---
    He is not something that threatens humanity!
[16:50] ---
    He is something that is here
    protecting us, being our shield!
[16:55] ---
    He, indeed, is our...
[17:01] ---
    ...new hero!
[17:07] ---
    Damn. Out of ammo.
[17:27] ---
    This is the final blow!
[17:33] ---
    W-What's happening?
[17:43] ---
    Joey... The electricity generator
    should be running at full power now.
[17:47] ---
    Thank you!
[17:49] ---
    But, is this really going to...
[17:52] ---
    Heroman needs to eat, too.
[17:55] ---
    The power plant is...
[17:57] ---
    T-This isn't good...
[17:58] ---
    This isn't good at all!
[18:52] ---
    Heroman...
[18:55] ---
    Attack!
[18:57] ---
    Damn you!
[19:09] ---
    Trying to blind me?
[19:11] ---
    Fool! Even if I can't see
    from above, the MR-1 can see!
[19:22] ---
    There!
[19:27] ---
    Dr. Minami, above you.
[19:35] ---
    Heroman...
[19:39] ---
    Blast!
[20:26] ---
    He did it! The Ghost has won!
[20:37] ---
    Heck, yeah!
[20:43] ---
    ...ahem.
[20:46] ---
    My hero...
[20:59] ---
    And that's how we stopped being fugitives.
[21:03] ---
    Thanks to Mr. Hughes all the
    charges on us were cleared.
[21:08] ---
    And thanks to that live broadcast,
[21:11] ---
    Heroman turned from a bad guy
    into an ally of justice overnight.
[21:16] ---
    What's the connection between
    Dr. Minami and the government?
[21:18] ---
    Did the government really chase down the Ghost?
[21:19] ---
    No comment! No comment!
[21:22] ---
    As for the mad scientist Dr.
    Minami and his followers...
[21:35] ---
    And that's how I returned
    to my normal, everyday life!
[21:43] ---
    Joey, could you get me another cup of coffee?
[21:46] ---
    Sure!
[21:50] ---
    Welcome!
[21:52] ---
    Hey Joey. You look the same as ever.
[21:56] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[22:01] ---
    Get me a coffee.
[22:07] ---
    Sure!
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    Freedom is really the best!
[23:55] ---
    Nothing better than peace and quiet!
[23:56] ---
    After the end of their fugitive days,
[23:59] ---
    Joey and the others enjoy
    a brief period of peace.
[24:02] ---
    But in that shadow a new danger lurks.
[24:06] ---
    An unexpected creature appears
    before Joey and the others.
[24:09] ---
    He gives them a warning.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #17: Legacy.
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:45] ---
    It was a totally breeze...
[01:47] ---
    Was it?
[02:02] ---
    Whoa, hold it there.
[02:03] ---
    If you wanna get through here you're
    gonna have to show us what you got.
[02:06] ---
    You got somethin' to say to that, huh?
[02:20] ---
    What's with you?
[02:21] ---
    You all scared?
[02:23] ---
    Then I'll...
[02:24] ---
    Don't!
[02:26] ---
    That guy's...
[02:28] ---
    ...dangerous.
[03:03] ---
    So Joey, what's Holly been doing since then?
[03:07] ---
    She's totally got a crush on Heroman.
[03:11] ---
    Heroman!
[03:13] ---
    My hero!
[03:14] ---
    I hope I can meet him again soon!
[03:16] ---
    ...like that.
[03:17] ---
    It's really annoying every day.
[03:19] ---
    Guess it won't be good for her to
    learn more than she already does.
[03:23] ---
    Yeah...
[03:24] ---
    Well, at least being able to worry about this
    stuff is proof that peaceful days are back.
[03:28] ---
    But someone, even now...
[03:32] ---
    ...is trying to wreck havoc on that peace!
[03:36] ---
    Professor?
[03:37] ---
    Did something happen?
[03:40] ---
    I think I should tell you
    the details after school.
[03:43] ---
    After class is over, meet up in my lab.
[03:47] ---
    Those three...
[03:50] ---
    They're plotting something again.
[04:00] ---
    Lina, sure you don't need to go to practice?
[04:03] ---
    Yup! I still have time, so
    don't worry about me. Go on.
[04:07] ---
    I see...
[04:09] ---
    Uh, where should I start?
[04:12] ---
    What? Did you do something bad again?
[04:16] ---
    O-O-Of course not!
[04:19] ---
    I w-would never...
[04:21] ---
    In that case...
[04:23] ---
    You should just talk normally...
[04:25] ---
    Right?
[04:27] ---
    Yes, of course.
[04:32] ---
    Fine, let me begin.
[04:33] ---
    It was this morning that I began
    to realize the situation.
[04:38] ---
    Last night, a research lab for a
    pharmaceutical company was attacked.
[04:43] ---
    A pharmaceutical company?
[04:45] ---
    Why would someone attack a place like that?
[04:48] ---
    And that's not all.
[04:50] ---
    I realized when I started looking into it,
[04:52] ---
    but there have been many facilities that
    have been attacked these past few weeks.
[04:59] ---
    All these places were attacked?
[05:01] ---
    Yes.
[05:02] ---
    The attacks happened at a
    university, a military industrial plant,
[05:05] ---
    a government facility, a
    foodstuffs maker, etc, etc...
[05:10] ---
    They seem completely random, however...
[05:40] ---
    I conjecture they were all
    attacked by the same individual.
[05:46] ---
    How do you know that?
[05:48] ---
    Before I tell you my conclusion, look at this.
[05:53] ---
    What is it?
[05:54] ---
    These are research labs that have stopped
    functioning due to accidents or some other reason.
[06:00] ---
    So, these too?
[06:01] ---
    It's not been revealed to the public,
[06:04] ---
    but I suspect these places have also
    been attacked by the same culprit.
[06:07] ---
    And?
[06:09] ---
    What's the link between these
    seemingly random labs?
[06:12] ---
    Indeed, exactly that!
[06:15] ---
    These incidents are all linked together.
[06:18] ---
    And that link is...
[06:20] ---
    It's...
[06:23] ---
    The legacy of the Skrugg!
[06:28] ---
    Stop your resistance!
[06:30] ---
    Give yourself up quietly!
[06:31] ---
    If you don't...
[06:46] ---
    Wait!
[06:59] ---
    The places that were attacked
    may have had different aims,
[07:01] ---
    but they were all researching leftover
    Skrugg weapons and wreckage.
[07:05] ---
    That's what I surmise.
[07:07] ---
    I see.
[07:08] ---
    Makes sense to me.
[07:10] ---
    So then, who is behind it?
[07:12] ---
    Well, I haven't yet...
[07:15] ---
    Do you have an idea what the next
    place to be attacked will be?
[07:18] ---
    Well, I haven't yet...
[07:20] ---
    Then, what do you know?
[07:24] ---
    Nothing in particular.
[07:27] ---
    Oh...
[07:29] ---
    Just telling us to be careful out there?
[07:32] ---
    Oh, no!
[07:33] ---
    I've got to get to practice!
[07:36] ---
    See everyone later!
[07:39] ---
    Sure...
[07:41] ---
    Later...
[07:46] ---
    So, Professor, is that all you wanted to say?
[07:48] ---
    No.
[07:52] ---
    Now I get to the good part.
[07:56] ---
    I didn't want to say it with
    Lina here, but there's more.
[07:59] ---
    I don't want to get her involved, see.
[08:02] ---
    You lied?
[08:04] ---
    Some lies are justified.
[08:05] ---
    Look at this.
[08:08] ---
    It's the map from before, right?
[08:09] ---
    If I connect them in the order of attacks...
[08:16] ---
    This is like a map of the culprit's movements.
[08:20] ---
    They are moving from the central
    US toward the west coast.
[08:23] ---
    You're right...
[08:25] ---
    And my guess for their next target is...
[08:33] ---
    Center City.
[08:40] ---
    We'd better start patrolling Center City then.
[08:44] ---
    Yeah.
[08:45] ---
    And shouldn't we tell the old dude at the NIA?
[08:48] ---
    Um, you guys...
[08:49] ---
    It'd be easiest to ask Mr. Hughes to look into
    the places that might be researching the Skrugg.
[08:54] ---
    Uh, I'm trying to tell you...
[08:55] ---
    Yeah, you're right.
[08:57] ---
    You guys!
[08:59] ---
    Listen!
[09:01] ---
    I actually have a guess to
    where they'll be attacking.
[09:07] ---
    Where?
[09:09] ---
    Here.
[09:10] ---
    Yup, right here.
[09:19] ---
    Hey now...
[09:21] ---
    You kept it?
[09:23] ---
    Yeah, my bad...
[09:26] ---
    So you want us to protect
    the scrap you picked up?
[09:29] ---
    But won't this be good in the end?
[09:32] ---
    With this we can lure out the culprit!
[09:34] ---
    Do you have any proof they'll be coming here?
[09:38] ---
    That's not a problem.
[09:40] ---
    Just think about it.
[09:42] ---
    All the research labs the culprit
    attacked must have been top secret.
[09:46] ---
    But they found out about them!
[09:50] ---
    So you mean...
[09:53] ---
    Exactly!
[09:54] ---
    They must have some special ability
    that lets them discover the locations!
[10:00] ---
    They always attack at night.
[10:03] ---
    We'll go over the specifics until then.
[10:06] ---
    Right!
[10:06] ---
    Got it.
[10:23] ---
    The multi-purpose hall?
[10:24] ---
    Why here?
[10:26] ---
    We won't get the public involved
    no matter what happens here.
[10:32] ---
    I sent the school a note that
    we were doing an experiment.
[10:35] ---
    We don't need to worry
    about the security guards.
[10:38] ---
    But then don't we need to keep a lookout?
[10:41] ---
    Don't worry.
[10:43] ---
    I've installed security sensors at
    various locations around the school.
[10:47] ---
    If the culprit breaks in, we should
    get a signal on this terminal.
[10:52] ---
    So all that's left is to wait?
[10:55] ---
    That's right.
[11:07] ---
    Oh, gimme that!
[11:13] ---
    Hurry up and play, Professor.
[11:22] ---
    It's here!
[11:25] ---
    What is it?
[11:26] ---
    Calm down!
[11:27] ---
    Calm down!
[11:28] ---
    First, everyone calm down.
[11:30] ---
    Take your own advice, damn it.
[11:32] ---
    So, what'll we do?
[11:34] ---
    Well...
[11:37] ---
    I'll go!
[11:39] ---
    I'd rather not damage the school...
[11:41] ---
    I'll contact you if anything happens.
[11:44] ---
    Got it.
[11:45] ---
    Don't do anything crazy.
[11:47] ---
    Right.
[12:12] ---
    Heroman... Engage!
[12:41] ---
    It's up here...
[12:43] ---
    Round the corner and then...
[12:54] ---
    We'll capture them, and drag them out at once!
[13:05] ---
    You're...
[13:19] ---
    Joey?
[13:22] ---
    Ms. Collins?
[13:24] ---
    What are you doing here, Joey?
[13:28] ---
    And look at that toy on your arm.
[13:31] ---
    What?
[13:32] ---
    I mean... So you're the culprit, Ms. Collins?
[13:37] ---
    Culprit?
[13:38] ---
    What are you talking about?
[13:40] ---
    Uh, about the Skrugg...
[13:42] ---
    I figured you guys were up to something
    and came to stop you, that's what.
[13:48] ---
    You three are always doing strange
    experiments or sneaking around outside...
[13:53] ---
    It's gone far enough!
[13:55] ---
    You're always causing problems.
[13:58] ---
    I tell you to stop, but you
    refuse to listen.... Why?
[14:02] ---
    Professor Denton's an adult, too...
[14:05] ---
    He really needs to stop doing
    these sorts of things.
[14:08] ---
    Are you listening, Joey?
[14:09] ---
    Uh, right!
[14:11] ---
    What?
[14:12] ---
    Are you hiding something?
[14:13] ---
    No, nothing at all!
[14:16] ---
    What are you talking about?
[14:19] ---
    There's nothing there.
[14:24] ---
    Well, of course!
[14:25] ---
    You're weird, Joey.
[14:36] ---
    What was that sound?
[14:38] ---
    The experiment!
[14:39] ---
    He wanted to show the nature of the relationship
    between subliminal stimuli and the hall!
[14:44] ---
    It seems like the experiment is dangerous
    though, so I came to stop him!
[14:47] ---
    I knew it.
[14:49] ---
    Fine, then I will...
[14:50] ---
    No!
[14:51] ---
    It might be dangerous!
[14:53] ---
    That's even more reason
    for me not to let you go!
[14:56] ---
    No, I mean it might be dangerous for you!
[15:00] ---
    For me?
[15:01] ---
    Anyway, I'll take responsibility
    and bring the two back with me!
[15:05] ---
    Ms. Collins, wait here!
[15:08] ---
    Got it?!
[15:10] ---
    I'm going now!
[15:21] ---
    What a handful they are.
[15:29] ---
    T-There it is!
[15:30] ---
    Hey, who are you?
[15:38] ---
    Hey! Can you hear me?
[15:42] ---
    I've got a bad feeling about this...
[15:45] ---
    I knew it.
[15:46] ---
    A Skrugg?
[15:47] ---
    Professor?
[15:49] ---
    Right!
[15:51] ---
    Always strike first!
[15:55] ---
    Take this!
[16:06] ---
    Professor!
[16:07] ---
    Got it!
[16:08] ---
    It's after this!
[16:12] ---
    Don't give it up, no matter what!
[16:20] ---
    Professor!
[16:50] ---
    Joey, you're late!
[16:54] ---
    Sorry, I had to deal with stuff.
[17:01] ---
    Heroman...
[17:04] ---
    Attack!
[17:40] ---
    Heroman!
[17:48] ---
    Joey!
[18:11] ---
    That's...
[18:15] ---
    Will!
[18:16] ---
    Why?
[18:18] ---
    I thought you regained your humanity...
[18:23] ---
    Where have you been all this time?
[18:25] ---
    Everyone was worried about you!
[18:27] ---
    Especially Lina!
[18:34] ---
    Joey!
[18:43] ---
    Psy!
[18:48] ---
    Will...
[18:54] ---
    Why do you hesitate?
[19:00] ---
    I am no longer human!
[19:03] ---
    Stop it!
[19:04] ---
    Will!
[19:28] ---
    Why?
[19:29] ---
    Why are you doing this?
[19:31] ---
    What are you attacking humans for?
[19:34] ---
    Didn't you return to the old Will?
[19:37] ---
    What do you know?
[19:40] ---
    You all should keep on
    having fun playing "hero."
[19:46] ---
    Playing hero?
[19:48] ---
    Sometimes you have to accept the bitter reality.
[19:50] ---
    Forced to fight even when you
    know what awaits you afterwards.
[19:56] ---
    That's why...
[19:58] ---
    I'm fighting to protect what's important to me!
[20:02] ---
    If you are the light, then I am the darkness.
[20:08] ---
    The inhuman existence that
    crawls through the darkness...
[20:13] ---
    I cannot allow traces of the Skrugg
    to be left on this planet.
[20:17] ---
    So I will destroy them all!
[20:22] ---
    What's the meaning behind it?
[20:25] ---
    What you see with your eyes is not everything.
[20:28] ---
    Things have already begun to
    move underneath the surface.
[20:32] ---
    Now listen.
[20:33] ---
    The next time you try and get in my way...
[20:36] ---
    I will not hold back, no matter who you are!
[20:38] ---
    Remember that well!
[21:11] ---
    I see...
[21:15] ---
    To think that Will was actually behind it all.
[21:18] ---
    What'll we do now?
[21:20] ---
    If we leave him be, the number
    of victims will only increase.
[21:24] ---
    Sure, but choosing to fight is
    just too difficult a choice.
[21:30] ---
    We can't leave him alone, but we
    can't fight against Will either.
[21:36] ---
    This is a hard problem.
[21:40] ---
    But, I can say this.
[21:45] ---
    We cannot run away.
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    The beach!
[23:53] ---
    And where there's a beach, there's sunlight!
[23:55] ---
    Where there's sunlight, there's summer!
[23:56] ---
    And when there's summer...
[24:00] ---
    Thanks to Hughes, Joey and the others were
    invited to a private government beach.
[24:05] ---
    Summer memories...
[24:07] ---
    A dazzling summer vacation...
[24:09] ---
    But what awaits them when they get there?
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #18: Separation.
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:39] ---
    Come on, everyone!
[01:41] ---
    Hurry up, hurry up!
[01:43] ---
    Hold up!
[01:47] ---
    Ms. Collins, you musn't dash out like that!
[01:58] ---
    Come on, Heroman! Come on in!
[02:19] ---
    I guess it was for the best?
[02:21] ---
    Yeah, why not?
[02:23] ---
    Can't help it now that she's seen him.
[02:26] ---
    Yeah. It seems like she
    was a big Heroman fan.
[02:31] ---
    Yup.
[02:32] ---
    And I bet she'd be more useful than
    the Professor when the chips are down.
[02:37] ---
    When it comes to school...
[02:39] ---
    Well, I suppose so...
[02:41] ---
    Joey!
[02:45] ---
    Come on, Joey, Psy!
[02:48] ---
    Let's go for a swim together!
[02:51] ---
    Sure, I'll be right there!
[03:03] ---
    Well, we still have Will to deal with.
    Can't blame you for being concerned.
[03:14] ---
    But that is that, and this is this.
[03:17] ---
    The beach, swimsuits, Lina!
[03:20] ---
    What else do you need, man?
[03:23] ---
    You should have fun when
    it's time to have fun.
[03:26] ---
    Your body ain't gonna hold
    up otherwise, you know?
[03:30] ---
    You sure it's okay?
[03:32] ---
    Yes! You have permission to have fun!
[03:35] ---
    That's an order!
[03:44] ---
    Hey!
[03:45] ---
    It feels good!
[03:47] ---
    Hurry up, hurry up!
[03:59] ---
    We've all come to a southern island.
[04:03] ---
    Mr. Hughes arranged for us all to go to
    this government owned, uninhabited island!
[04:10] ---
    And, with no other people
    on the island to worry about,
[04:13] ---
    we're having a lot of fun here with Heroman.
[04:35] ---
    Honestly... I'm really enjoying myself.
[04:49] ---
    This stuff's good!
[04:53] ---
    Yum!
[05:20] ---
    But yeah, I'm surprised the
    government has an island like this.
[05:24] ---
    Honestly. They say the
    world's in a recession,
[05:28] ---
    but I guess that only
    applies to certain places.
[05:31] ---
    If those funds could have been
    used for my research instead...
[05:36] ---
    But thanks to this, we're
    finally able to have fun
[05:38] ---
    without worry about anything.
[05:43] ---
    What, you're satisfied already?
[05:47] ---
    But the fun...
[05:49] ---
    ...has only begun!
[05:58] ---
    What are you planning on doing, Psy?
[06:01] ---
    Not some freaky ceremony or something, right?
[06:04] ---
    After the beach, swimsuits, and a
    barbecue, this comes next, right?
[06:08] ---
    Just to clarify... What
    are you talking about?
[06:11] ---
    Isn't it obvious?
[06:12] ---
    Ghost stories, man! Ghost stories!
[06:20] ---
    It's a story I heard from one of the
    NIA staff on the charter plane here.
[06:28] ---
    Before the government bought this
    island, it wasn't uninhabited.
[06:32] ---
    There were definitely people living here.
[06:38] ---
    The reason that those people
    vanished from this island,
[06:43] ---
    is because of a legend long told here...
[06:45] ---
    The curse of the demon!
[06:52] ---
    They say that anyone who
    sets eyes on the demon,
[06:55] ---
    will meet with death soon
    afterwards, no matter what.
[06:58] ---
    And that's what began happening.
[07:03] ---
    With the growing number of victims,
[07:05] ---
    the inhabitants of the island
    were faced with two choices.
[07:09] ---
    Get cursed and throw away their lives,
[07:12] ---
    or abandon the island...
[07:15] ---
    So that's why this island is...
[07:17] ---
    Yeah. Everyone's gone.
[07:21] ---
    Except for the demon, that is!
[07:30] ---
    Hey, come on Professor.
    The story's just started.
[07:35] ---
    Can't you even handle this?
[07:39] ---
    I'm fine, obviously.
[07:41] ---
    Who do you think you're talking to?
[07:43] ---
    I am a self-styled child of science!
[07:45] ---
    Worry not about me, and continue.
[07:48] ---
    Professor, behind you! Behind you!
[07:51] ---
    What?!
[08:03] ---
    The demon always appears on
    hot, humid nights like tonight.
[08:13] ---
    Calm down, would you?
[08:16] ---
    It's the right humidity, but
    it only shows up on windy days.
[08:20] ---
    No need to be worried.
[08:21] ---
    Um, Psy...
[08:24] ---
    What is it?
[08:25] ---
    When you say windy... You
    mean windy like it is, now?
[08:33] ---
    Yeah... About like this, probably.
[08:42] ---
    It'll be okay, Mr. Denton. This story
    is a work of fiction, after all.
[08:47] ---
    R-R-R-R-R-Right...
[08:50] ---
    Yeah. And it's not like the lights
    are turning on and off for no reason,
[08:54] ---
    or we're hearing rumbling sounds
    from far away... So, no worries.
[09:07] ---
    The lights are turning on and off...
[09:10] ---
    And there's a rumbling sound from far away...
[09:13] ---
    W-W-W-W-W-W-What's this mean, Psy?
[09:16] ---
    How should I know?
[09:18] ---
    I just heard about it, is all...
[09:21] ---
    How does the story continue?
[09:22] ---
    What is the name of the demon?
[09:30] ---
    That name of the demon is...
[09:35] ---
    Shapeshifter...
[09:38] ---
    Just as the name says, it
    can change its form at will.
[09:41] ---
    And it shows itself as the thing the
    people it curses fear the most.
[09:46] ---
    In front of the most fearful
    person in the village,
[09:49] ---
    from the darkness on the
    other side of the door...
[10:12] ---
    Calm down, Mr. Denton!
[10:16] ---
    W-W-What's happening?
[10:18] ---
    There shouldn't be anyone on this island!
[10:21] ---
    H-H-Heroman... A-A-A...
[10:24] ---
    Calm down everyone.
[10:34] ---
    I said, calm down!
[10:40] ---
    There's something not right about this.
[10:41] ---
    That's why everyone's scared!
[10:45] ---
    No! I mean the story is too good to be true.
[10:49] ---
    What do you mean?
[10:51] ---
    You said you heard this ghost story
    from a person from the NIA, right?
[10:55] ---
    Yeah, but...
[10:58] ---
    Then that must be it.
[11:00] ---
    What must be it?
[11:02] ---
    S-S-S-So-So-So...
[11:04] ---
    We're being set up by
    that person from the NIA.
[11:07] ---
    Candid camera, you know?
[11:11] ---
    Candid camera?
[11:12] ---
    Otherwise this story
    matches up way too close.
[11:15] ---
    It's going exactly as Psy's story said.
[11:18] ---
    I bet when we open this door,
    they'll be all like "surprise!"
[11:22] ---
    And Joey's friends will come rushing in.
[11:26] ---
    You're going to open it?
[11:27] ---
    Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-You're going to open it?
[11:31] ---
    It'll be fine!
[11:32] ---
    Here. Surprise!
[11:51] ---
    Run.
[11:52] ---
    Huh? What?
[11:56] ---
    Everyone... Run for your lives!
[12:11] ---
    Everyone... Run for your lives!
[12:21] ---
    He's injured...
[12:24] ---
    Be careful when you move him.
[12:25] ---
    Mr. Denton, get the first-aid kit.
[12:27] ---
    R-Right...
[12:55] ---
    Where am I?
[12:56] ---
    Don't worry. This is the
    lodge. There's no danger.
[13:01] ---
    No! It'll be here soon!
[13:04] ---
    Stay still!
[13:05] ---
    The others must have already evacuated.
[13:08] ---
    You're the only ones left on the island...
[13:12] ---
    Don't push yourself.
[13:14] ---
    Push myself?
[13:16] ---
    We have to get out of
    here. Everyone, right now!
[13:20] ---
    We'll all be wiped out!
[13:22] ---
    Wiped out?
[13:23] ---
    What's that supposed to mean, buddy?
[13:25] ---
    Please explain.
[13:29] ---
    We had... an accident...
[13:34] ---
    An accident?
[13:35] ---
    I can't say any more!
[13:37] ---
    Anyway, right now we...
[13:38] ---
    Wait. If you are also a scientist,
    you should explain the situation!
[13:46] ---
    Tell us the truth.
[13:49] ---
    I understand.
[13:50] ---
    But I'll do it on the
    way. Hurry and get ready!
[13:56] ---
    Fine with us.
[14:01] ---
    Hurry everyone.
[14:13] ---
    We're good.
[14:15] ---
    Up we go.
[14:21] ---
    You're the one I've heard about?
[14:25] ---
    Yes?
[14:27] ---
    This guy is really strong, right?
[14:31] ---
    Y-Yes, he is!
[14:33] ---
    I see.
[14:35] ---
    That better be true, or else...
[14:37] ---
    Or else...
[14:40] ---
    Okay, let's go.
[14:49] ---
    That noise...
[14:53] ---
    We're too late?
[14:56] ---
    Move away from the door!
[15:06] ---
    What the hell is this?
[15:11] ---
    Heroman...
[15:14] ---
    Attack!
[15:22] ---
    Heroman!
[15:28] ---
    Everyone!
[15:29] ---
    Lina!
[16:14] ---
    Where am I?
[16:17] ---
    Where is everyone?
[16:21] ---
    Heroman! Everyone!
[16:34] ---
    Lina!
[17:11] ---
    Lina!
[17:22] ---
    Lina... Lina. Lina!
[17:33] ---
    Lina!
[17:40] ---
    Everything's all right now, Lina.
[17:55] ---
    Lina... Lina!
[17:59] ---
    Lina!
[18:45] ---
    Joey?
[18:46] ---
    Y-You're okay?
[18:51] ---
    I...
[18:53] ---
    You saved me?
[18:55] ---
    Yeah.
[19:25] ---
    What's the matter?
[19:27] ---
    Oh, it's nothing...
[19:30] ---
    Looks like I got saved by you again, Joey.
[19:32] ---
    No!
[19:34] ---
    You didn't really...
[19:36] ---
    Thanks.
[19:40] ---
    Hey, Joey...
[19:44] ---
    I wonder where everyone went?
[19:51] ---
    Oh, it's nothing. I'll go look for them soon.
[19:56] ---
    You wait here, Lina.
[19:57] ---
    No, I'm okay.
[19:59] ---
    Take me with you.
[20:02] ---
    But...
[20:04] ---
    I want to be with you, Joey. So... okay?
[20:13] ---
    Okay.
[20:34] ---
    Let's go.
[20:35] ---
    Yeah...
[20:51] ---
    I wonder what in the world happened?
[20:54] ---
    I don't really know. We were
    suddenly attacked, and then...
[20:58] ---
    ...everyone got split up.
[21:03] ---
    But I think everyone should be fine.
[21:05] ---
    That scientist told us
    to head to the airfield,
[21:08] ---
    so I bet that's what they're all doing.
[21:11] ---
    I sure hope so.
[21:13] ---
    Yeah...
[21:19] ---
    W-Who is it?
[21:21] ---
    Is somebody there?
[21:28] ---
    It's you... You were safe?
[21:32] ---
    That voice...
[21:34] ---
    It's me.
[21:36] ---
    I'm the one you saved earlier.
[21:45] ---
    My name is Ravi, thanks.
[21:47] ---
    I'm Joseph Jones.
[21:51] ---
    It's too bad...
[21:54] ---
    It looks like it's too early to relax!
[22:03] ---
    Lina, stay back!
[22:04] ---
    Right!
[22:06] ---
    We're through!
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    Heroman, I'll save you! Count on it!
[23:57] ---
    It's a biohazard where plants have been
    transformed into living, willful weapons.
[24:02] ---
    The party has been split
    up thanks to its attack.
[24:06] ---
    In order to set things in order,
[24:08] ---
    Joey and Heroman head toward
    the center of the island.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #19: Survival!
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:31] ---
    Lina, get back!
[01:32] ---
    Right!
[01:39] ---
    Joey!
[01:40] ---
    Right.
[01:52] ---
    Heroman...
[01:55] ---
    Go!
[02:04] ---
    Huh?
[02:09] ---
    Joey, where's Heroman?
[02:11] ---
    Heroman... Go!
[02:14] ---
    Go, go, go!
[02:17] ---
    He's not coming?
[02:19] ---
    Doesn't look like it...
[02:22] ---
    Here they come!
[02:28] ---
    Get over there!
[02:29] ---
    What about you, Joey?
[02:30] ---
    Hurry up while I distract them!
[02:33] ---
    Right!
[02:34] ---
    We're counting on you!
[02:39] ---
    Over here!
[02:40] ---
    Here!
[02:43] ---
    That's right, come here!
[03:10] ---
    That'll do.
[03:23] ---
    Joey, nice work.
[03:25] ---
    Dr. Ravi, what's happening on this island?
[03:30] ---
    Yeah...
[03:32] ---
    I guess there's no point
    trying to hide it now.
[03:35] ---
    Just like you heard, this is an uninhabited
    island owned by the government.
[03:40] ---
    It's officially billed as an R&R spot for
    high-level personnel, but that's just a front.
[03:46] ---
    A branch of the military is using it for
    their own biological weapons research.
[03:50] ---
    Since it's an uninhabited island,
[03:52] ---
    we were doing experiments that were way too
    dangerous to even think about normally.
[03:56] ---
    This monster is part of that research.
[03:59] ---
    Why were you doing something like that?
[04:01] ---
    If the research was successful, we'd have
    a weapon more powerful than nukes!
[04:05] ---
    This plant has an incredible
    regeneration ability,
[04:09] ---
    and can move in ways that are
    beyond our comprehension.
[04:12] ---
    Our research was to extract out that
    ability, and to make it useful for the military.
[04:18] ---
    The experiment went well.
[04:21] ---
    Or perhaps, too well.
[04:24] ---
    And that's when the accident happened.
[04:26] ---
    Yes, that's right.
[04:29] ---
    The regeneration jumped to
    unexpected levels, and...
[04:34] ---
    ...we became unable to control it.
[04:37] ---
    It may only be a few more hours until this
    entire island is covered in those vines!
[04:43] ---
    So we've got to head to the airstrip!
[04:45] ---
    Hurry and get off of the island!
[04:47] ---
    What about everyone else?
[04:49] ---
    Like Psy and Miss Collins...
[04:51] ---
    I think I said to head
    to the airstrip earlier.
[04:54] ---
    That's what they're doing, probably...
[04:55] ---
    And what if they aren't?
[04:59] ---
    I'm sorry, but in that case...
[05:00] ---
    I cannot run away and leave
    Heroman and the others behind!
[05:04] ---
    This isn't the time to be
    worrying about others!
[05:07] ---
    We're up against an out-of-control
    military weapon!
[05:09] ---
    Is there a way to defeat those vines?
[05:12] ---
    I won't run. I will fight!
[05:14] ---
    Tell me!
[05:20] ---
    The plant's energy source is probably the
    power generator in the research lab.
[05:27] ---
    If you can destroy the core
    that absorbs the energy,
[05:30] ---
    then you should be able to stop the growth.
[05:32] ---
    The core?
[05:33] ---
    And where is that?
[05:35] ---
    Its roots are in the laboratory,
    and it's making a giant trunk.
[05:39] ---
    The crystal in the center is the core.
[05:43] ---
    Understood.
[05:44] ---
    Let's go, Lina.
[05:46] ---
    Right.
[05:47] ---
    Hey, I'll come too!
[05:52] ---
    So, what do you plan to do, Joey?
[05:55] ---
    First I'll find where Heroman is.
[05:57] ---
    But, how?
[05:59] ---
    He didn't come when you
    called before, right?
[06:01] ---
    We'll climb up to a place with
    a view of the entire island.
[06:07] ---
    Are you sure about this?
[06:08] ---
    About what?
[06:09] ---
    About him...
[06:11] ---
    I've heard that you fought the Skrugg,
    but this, um... Fantasticman...
[06:17] ---
    Heroman!
[06:19] ---
    But Heroman isn't here...
[06:22] ---
    Don't worry.
[06:23] ---
    How can you be so confident?
[06:25] ---
    Because Joey is my hero.
[06:30] ---
    Hero, huh?
[06:43] ---
    Heroman, where did you go?
[06:46] ---
    I knew it... I'm nervous
    when you're not around.
[06:50] ---
    But I have to stay strong, or the
    other two will be even more scared.
[06:56] ---
    I've got to do my best...
[06:59] ---
    Heroman, I don't know
    what's happened to you.
[07:03] ---
    But, if you're in some sort of
    trouble, I'll do something about it.
[07:07] ---
    You can count on it!
[07:16] ---
    Is someone there?
[07:18] ---
    Miss Collins?
[07:19] ---
    Psy?
[07:25] ---
    What's that?
[07:27] ---
    Were you studying things other than plants?
[07:30] ---
    That's just a crab.
[07:32] ---
    They're big, but they've
    always lived here...
[07:35] ---
    They're related to hermit crabs.
[07:43] ---
    A crab...
[07:44] ---
    Oh...
[07:49] ---
    Shoot! I have to stay strong!
[07:56] ---
    Hey, can't you hear something?
[07:59] ---
    It's just another crab.
[08:04] ---
    Help...
[08:06] ---
    See? That's a person's voice.
[08:09] ---
    Is someone there?
[08:11] ---
    Help... Please...
[08:15] ---
    Are you okay?
[08:16] ---
    No, wait!
[08:17] ---
    Look carefully...
[08:18] ---
    That's not human.
[08:29] ---
    Come... here...
[08:32] ---
    The vines are speaking?
[08:34] ---
    The vines are rubbing together
    and mimicking human voice!
[08:38] ---
    Don't go!
[08:39] ---
    Here it comes!
[08:40] ---
    Run!
[08:49] ---
    What incredible learning ability!
[08:52] ---
    In such a short time, and
    without any vocal cords,
[08:54] ---
    it's managed to mimic human voice! Amazing!
[08:57] ---
    If it continues to learn at this rate,
    it'll be beyond anyone's control!
[09:02] ---
    Don't talk like it's someone else's problem!
[09:03] ---
    This is all because of...
[09:07] ---
    Vines again?
[09:08] ---
    No! That's Miss Collins's voice!
[09:14] ---
    Stop! No! You mustn't!
[09:17] ---
    You mustn't!
[09:18] ---
    Miss Collins!
[09:19] ---
    You mustn't!
[09:21] ---
    You mustn't!
[09:23] ---
    Are you okay?
[09:24] ---
    No, I'm not okay!
[09:26] ---
    This is an island of giants!
[09:28] ---
    These crabs were always this big.
[09:31] ---
    They're bigger than the
    lobsters in Center City!
[09:35] ---
    My sandal!
[09:36] ---
    Hey!
[09:37] ---
    I just bought them, and
    only used them this once!
[09:41] ---
    They're my favorite from this year's new
    lineup, and they were really expensive...
[09:46] ---
    Miss Collins... Have you seen
    Professor Denton or Psy?
[09:51] ---
    No. I thought they were with you.
[09:54] ---
    Um, I'd like you to help us with something.
[10:06] ---
    We climbed all the way up here,
[10:08] ---
    but you won't be able to
    see anything in the dark.
[10:11] ---
    Actually, dark will do perfectly.
[10:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
[10:27] ---
    No use?
[10:33] ---
    There he is. Over there.
[10:36] ---
    You're right!
[10:37] ---
    Finally found you.
[10:40] ---
    All right!
[10:43] ---
    Electricity?
[10:45] ---
    I see. So that's it.
[10:50] ---
    Is this the right way?
[10:51] ---
    The light from before was
    over by the waterfall.
[10:54] ---
    Don't worry, we're on the right path.
[11:05] ---
    Heroman!
[11:09] ---
    Heroman!
[11:29] ---
    Heroman!
[11:31] ---
    Heroman!
[11:42] ---
    Captain Hero has been...
[11:44] ---
    It's Heroman!
[11:46] ---
    We've got to save him!
[11:47] ---
    But how?
[11:49] ---
    No matter how strong he is, he'll
    never break free of those vines.
[11:54] ---
    If power alone won't work...
[11:57] ---
    Heroman... Blast!
[12:15] ---
    It's...
[12:17] ---
    ...absorbing the energy...
[12:24] ---
    That attack is dangerous!
[12:26] ---
    It's giving the thing energy!
[12:29] ---
    Able to stretch like a rubber band,
    and able to absorb energy...
[12:35] ---
    Thanks to that, Heroman can't move.
[12:40] ---
    Everyone, stand back!
[12:41] ---
    Joey!
[12:42] ---
    Leave this to him.
[12:44] ---
    What are you going to do?
[12:47] ---
    I'm going to save Heroman, no matter what!
[12:51] ---
    Ever since I met him, Heroman has been
    by my side, always there to save me...
[13:00] ---
    Always, always...
[13:03] ---
    So, this time...
[13:06] ---
    It's my turn!
[13:12] ---
    How?
[13:13] ---
    How should I save him?
[13:24] ---
    What should I do?
[13:25] ---
    I can only get close for a second.
[13:27] ---
    At this rate Heroman's energy
    will be completely absorbed!
[13:32] ---
    That's it!
[13:33] ---
    Energy!
[13:37] ---
    Heroman...
[13:39] ---
    Disengage!
[13:51] ---
    Joey!
[13:53] ---
    Guess that worked.
[13:59] ---
    You made him small.
[14:01] ---
    Yup.
[14:02] ---
    Hey!
[14:04] ---
    We've been looking everywhere.
[14:06] ---
    Is everyone here?
[14:08] ---
    Professor Denton, Psy!
[14:10] ---
    How did you know we were here?
[14:12] ---
    We figured that Heroman would end
    up cuttin' loose at some point.
[14:16] ---
    So we used the electric bolts
    from Heroman as a landmark.
[14:20] ---
    Thank goodness.
[14:21] ---
    I'm so glad everyone is safe.
[14:24] ---
    Yeah...
[14:25] ---
    Okay, buddy! You've got
    some explaining to do!
[14:29] ---
    Psy, I'll explain while we're
    heading to the research lab.
[14:33] ---
    Research lab?
[14:40] ---
    So that's...
[14:41] ---
    Yeah.
[14:42] ---
    It's the research lab where
    the thing's core is.
[14:45] ---
    It's crawling in vines...
[14:47] ---
    Heroman and I will go.
[14:50] ---
    Everyone else, wait here.
[14:51] ---
    I'll come too.
[14:54] ---
    Only I can open the lock
    to the room with the core.
[14:57] ---
    And I feel like you guys might
    be able to pull it off...
[15:02] ---
    Glad to have you with us.
[15:03] ---
    Don't get separated.
[15:06] ---
    Understood.
[15:07] ---
    Be careful.
[15:09] ---
    Break a leg.
[15:10] ---
    Right.
[15:12] ---
    I'm counting on you, Heroman.
[15:23] ---
    Why aren't they attacking?
[15:26] ---
    I don't know.
[15:27] ---
    Could it be a trap?
[15:28] ---
    Impossible.
[15:29] ---
    These things shouldn't
    be that intelligent...
[15:50] ---
    Um, Mister Giant, you can get in this way...
[15:56] ---
    His name is Heroman!
[15:58] ---
    Take a left up there.
[15:59] ---
    There's stairs farther in!
[16:04] ---
    Heroman, here!
[16:06] ---
    The stairs are this way.
[16:08] ---
    The elevator isn't going to work
    for someone as heavy as him.
[16:11] ---
    Who said we were taking the elevator?
[16:15] ---
    But the power generator
    is in the tenth basement!
[16:28] ---
    Nice work...
[16:47] ---
    I knew it! It's waiting for us!
[16:50] ---
    This is...
[16:52] ---
    Dr. Ravi, that's the core, right?
[16:56] ---
    Yes! The crystal shining in
    the center of the trunk!
[17:02] ---
    Save me!
[17:08] ---
    What?
[17:24] ---
    What the heck is that?
[17:29] ---
    It copied Heroman?
[17:33] ---
    That name of the demon is Shapeshifter.
[17:36] ---
    Just as the name says, it
    can change its form at will.
[17:40] ---
    And it shows itself as the thing
    the people it curses fear the most.
[17:43] ---
    Shapeshifter...
[17:59] ---
    Their movements are the same?
[18:12] ---
    Heroman, be careful!
[18:14] ---
    If you get caught by those vines,
    you won't be able to move again!
[18:25] ---
    Now! Hit the crystal!
[18:31] ---
    If we can destroy it...
[18:37] ---
    It regenerated! And now there are three!
[18:46] ---
    Heroman!
[19:08] ---
    Oh, no!
[19:23] ---
    Heroman...
[19:24] ---
    Disengage!
[19:34] ---
    Heroman... Engage!
[19:38] ---
    Go!
[19:43] ---
    Heroman... Finish!
[20:37] ---
    Did they do it?
[20:39] ---
    They did it!
[20:41] ---
    Looks like it.
[20:43] ---
    We're saved, somehow...
[20:46] ---
    It's over...
[21:10] ---
    This was one crazy vacation.
[21:13] ---
    It's never a dull day around
    you, Joey, that's for sure.
[21:18] ---
    Sorry...
[21:20] ---
    Hey, this isn't Joey's fault.
[21:23] ---
    And anyway, I never would have gotten
    to swim at such a wonderful beach.
[21:28] ---
    Yes, you are correct!
[21:30] ---
    Looks like the government
    owes you guys even more now.
[21:35] ---
    I'm really sorry.
[21:37] ---
    In two hours a helicopter
    should be here to pick us up.
[21:41] ---
    Two hours?
[21:43] ---
    Then I can go for another swim!
[21:46] ---
    Miss Collins, wait for me!
[21:53] ---
    Those vines...
[21:56] ---
    Hey, Joey!
[21:58] ---
    Let's go!
[22:01] ---
    Sure!
[22:02] ---
    Hurry up!
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    Sis, I'm begging you, stop!
[23:56] ---
    What did you say?
[23:57] ---
    Well, obviously.
[23:59] ---
    Because you're a pain.
[24:00] ---
    Mysterious abductions begin
    happening one after another.
[24:02] ---
    Soon, even Denton goes missing.
[24:06] ---
    In order to solve the riddle,
    Joey, Psy, and Holly...
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #20: Missing.
[24:15] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:38] ---
    Hey Dad, can I eat the candy Grandma gave me?
[01:42] ---
    No snacks before bedtime, remember?
[01:44] ---
    Aw, come on... Just one?
[01:47] ---
    No means no.
[01:48] ---
    Come on, Dad, please!
[01:54] ---
    Don't tell your mother, okay?
[01:55] ---
    Yay!
[01:58] ---
    Dad, I think I just saw something...
[02:02] ---
    Oh yeah... There are a lot
    of deer around these parts.
[02:05] ---
    Or maybe it's a... monster?
[02:09] ---
    There's nothing to worry
    about! Dad's here, right?
[02:12] ---
    If a monster appears, then you'll beat it up?
[02:16] ---
    You got that right!
[02:17] ---
    A monster or two ain't nothing
    for me to handle.
[02:33] ---
    Papa...
[02:38] ---
    It's okay. It'll be okay...
[02:42] ---
    Stay in the car.
[02:43] ---
    Got it?
[02:49] ---
    I'm pretty sure someone was here...
[02:52] ---
    Dad!
[03:11] ---
    Oh sure, this is so how I
    want to spend my weekend...
[03:14] ---
    All us guys getting together
    for some gardening?
[03:17] ---
    He only said we were going for a
    drive! He totally tricked us...
[03:21] ---
    The clear blue sky, the wide open land, the
    sweat dripping from your foreheads...
[03:27] ---
    I think this is the perfect way
    for youth to spend their weekend.
[03:30] ---
    Easy for you to say!
[03:32] ---
    What are you researching this time?
[03:34] ---
    Why are we collecting soil samples?
[03:36] ---
    Do you know about the abductions that
    have been happening in Center City?
[03:40] ---
    Abductions?
[03:43] ---
    Over the past month a ton of animals,
[03:45] ---
    have been attacked and gone missing,
    from cows to horses and even pet dogs.
[03:52] ---
    At this point, no clues or motive have
    been discovered about who's responsible.
[03:58] ---
    Why would someone attack animals?
[04:00] ---
    Some people are just cruel like that.
[04:02] ---
    But this time, it's people
    that've gone missing.
[04:06] ---
    Five people in a row.
[04:09] ---
    A man disappeared three days ago
    after a strange car accident.
[04:13] ---
    Riiight around here...
[04:16] ---
    So what does this incident
    have to do with the soil?
[04:20] ---
    That soil is an important witness.
[04:24] ---
    It just might tell us who the culprit is.
[04:26] ---
    Huh?
[04:28] ---
    It's already been three days
    since it happened, right?
[04:31] ---
    Even if there is some evidence left, the
    wind would have carried it away somewhere.
[04:37] ---
    What did you just say?
[04:39] ---
    You just said "carried away," didn't you?
[04:42] ---
    That's it! That's what connects everything!
[04:53] ---
    Hurry up and get in!
[04:54] ---
    We've got to do one more
    place before the sun sets!
[04:59] ---
    If we take a detour I'll be late for work!
[05:01] ---
    So will I!
[05:03] ---
    Then you guys are on your own!
[05:10] ---
    S-So, we're walking back?
[05:13] ---
    What a jerk!
[05:19] ---
    It sounds like some sort of joke,
[05:21] ---
    but I'm tellin' the truth, for real!
[05:23] ---
    He couldn't even go to the bathroom
    by himself at night until he was 9!
[05:27] ---
    I tried kicking the door once,
    and he was so scared he fainted!
[05:32] ---
    Isn't it hilarious?
[05:34] ---
    Don't know who he takes after, but
    he's like a teensy-weensy acorn!
[05:38] ---
    An acorn?
[05:39] ---
    Yeah, a tiny one!
[05:40] ---
    Tiny Joey and his tiny courage!
[05:42] ---
    Who are you talking to, Sis?
[05:46] ---
    Some pretty blond what's-her-name...
[05:50] ---
    Hey!
[05:52] ---
    Hello, Lina?
[05:53] ---
    Sorry for calling you so late.
[05:55] ---
    Your sister was telling me
    a lot about you, Joey.
[05:59] ---
    No, no! That was our neighborhood drunk!
[06:02] ---
    I'm sober, damn it!
[06:04] ---
    Why are you getting in
    the way? Get outta here!
[06:07] ---
    I'm being serious, man.
[06:09] ---
    There ain't even fairy tales about
    acorns gettin' cheerleaders.
[06:14] ---
    I'm sorry, Lina...
[06:16] ---
    I'm okay.
[06:17] ---
    You weren't at school, so I was
    worried. Did something happen?
[06:23] ---
    Well...
[06:25] ---
    There've been those abductions
    recently, you know?
[06:29] ---
    My Dad said it's dangerous, and
    won't let me out of the house.
[06:32] ---
    Oh, so that's why.
[06:34] ---
    Hey, has Professor Denton returned yet?
[06:36] ---
    No... It's been three days
    since we split up, too...
[06:40] ---
    What? He still hasn't come back?
[06:43] ---
    No...
[06:44] ---
    Tomorrow's Saturday, so
    I'll go look for him with Psy.
[06:47] ---
    I'll help too! I think I
    could slip out for a bit...
[06:51] ---
    I think it's better for you to
    listen to your parents right now.
[06:54] ---
    Leave this to us.
[06:56] ---
    But...
[06:57] ---
    No... I want to see you, Joey.
[07:07] ---
    So do I...
[07:10] ---
    Hey, hey, hey!
[07:12] ---
    Explain to me what's going on here?
[07:15] ---
    Why is the hedgehog sitting
    there drinking coffee?
[07:18] ---
    I can't help it! She came in on her own!
[07:22] ---
    Waiter!
[07:23] ---
    Yes?
[07:24] ---
    Fill me up.
[07:25] ---
    And don't be stingy about it.
[07:27] ---
    I want it so strong I'm hopping on
    the stools and my head explodes!
[07:30] ---
    As you wish...
[07:32] ---
    And five lumps of sugar.
[07:33] ---
    Right...
[07:35] ---
    Um... Are you planning on coming
    with us to look for the Professor?
[07:42] ---
    Frankly, I think this is a bigger
    problem then you guys can handle.
[07:45] ---
    It's an extremely complex case.
[07:48] ---
    Well, things just went from
    complex to seriously messed up...
[07:53] ---
    Where did the Professor disappear to?
[07:55] ---
    All we know is that he was chasing
    after the abduction cases.
[07:58] ---
    He must have gotten a hold
    of a clue to the culprit!
[08:02] ---
    That's why he disappeared!
[08:04] ---
    Please, don't jinx things like that!
[08:06] ---
    Don't underestimate your
    sister's sixth sense.
[08:08] ---
    I found those underwear
    you hid after your "accident"
[08:10] ---
    and that test you scored a zero on, remember?
[08:16] ---
    Please don't tell people about that!
[08:18] ---
    Must be hard having a
    detective in the family.
[08:22] ---
    But these incidents really are a mystery...
[08:24] ---
    They've been so frequent,
[08:26] ---
    but no witnesses or evidence has been found.
[08:30] ---
    Is that even possible?
[08:32] ---
    Might be the work of psychics...
[08:34] ---
    No way...
[08:35] ---
    I wouldn't make fun of psychic
    powers if I were you!
[08:38] ---
    I don't know the details, but I know
    one important thing about the culprit.
[08:44] ---
    Use your brains a bit, sheesh!
[08:47] ---
    Listen. Cows disappeared, right?
[08:50] ---
    Whoever it is, they're some
    macho-man that can carry a cow!
[08:54] ---
    A macho-man?
[08:59] ---
    All right then, let's
    get to catching the guy!
[09:09] ---
    He split up from you guys,
    and took off in his RV.
[09:13] ---
    He was heading in the
    direction of this beach...
[09:16] ---
    We just might run into the culprit here.
[09:20] ---
    But before that...
[09:21] ---
    Why do we...
[09:23] ---
    ...have to dress up in
    these ridiculous outfits?
[09:27] ---
    You know, to get in the spirit.
[09:30] ---
    The spirit? But look at us!
[09:33] ---
    Yeah! The culprit will know
    we're detectives immediately!
[09:36] ---
    T-That's not what I meant...
[09:38] ---
    Stop your complainin'. We're
    starting the investigation.
[09:41] ---
    Time to interrogate people whether they've
    seen a suspicious macho-man around here!
[09:48] ---
    Sis!
[09:49] ---
    The Professor might be adrift
    on the sea about now.
[09:53] ---
    I'll go "look" for him a bit.
[10:00] ---
    She just came to play around?
[10:04] ---
    I don't think this is going to help any.
[10:06] ---
    There are macho-men all over the place here.
[10:10] ---
    Hey, Joey... Look at that.
[10:18] ---
    Interrogating people?
    Sounds like a good idea to me...
[10:21] ---
    Psy, take this more seriously!
[10:30] ---
    I feel like we're getting farther away
    from the Professor by the second.
[10:38] ---
    Galapagos...
[10:40] ---
    What the heck kind of map were you using?
[10:43] ---
    What're you slacking off for?
[10:48] ---
    I've found out where the culprit is.
[10:51] ---
    You have?
[11:04] ---
    So you're the brats who've
    been sniffing around about me.
[11:08] ---
    We heard rumors that you're the
    strongest dude in Center City...
[11:14] ---
    Yeah? And what if I am?
[11:16] ---
    We'd like to ask you some questions.
[11:19] ---
    You recognize the guy in this picture?
[11:22] ---
    What? You guys are friends with Matthew?
[11:25] ---
    The Professor came to this bar?
[11:28] ---
    Great, we've picked up his trail.
[11:30] ---
    He's really a strange fellow, that one...
[11:34] ---
    All he does is drink Coke
    and eat marshmallows.
[11:36] ---
    He must think this place is
    a coffee shop or something.
[11:40] ---
    And he forgot to tip even
    though he wasn't drunk.
[11:42] ---
    Yeah, that sounds like him.
[11:44] ---
    Caught up in some money troubles?
[11:46] ---
    That could be the motive
    for a criminal act...
[11:49] ---
    So? You saying we had something do with this?
[11:54] ---
    You're the culprit who
    attacked the Professor!
[11:57] ---
    W-We have to turn in a report
    to the Professor, see!
[12:01] ---
    Yes, yes! We're studying people
    strong enough to lift cows!
[12:07] ---
    Well that sounds interesting. Let me try.
[12:23] ---
    What the hell do you think you're
    doing to my little brother?
[12:37] ---
    He got beat by a girl. Nothin' but talk.
[12:40] ---
    Can't be him, then.
[12:42] ---
    You're just scarier than a bull, that's all!
[12:45] ---
    Come on! Playing detective
    isn't getting us anywhere!
[12:48] ---
    While we're doing this, the Professor is...
[12:51] ---
    Don't be in such a rush. I've
    figured out one thing so far.
[12:54] ---
    Really?
[12:55] ---
    Yeah...
[12:57] ---
    You get hungry when you use your head.
[13:08] ---
    Um, I really don't think we should
    be leisurely drinking coffee...
[13:12] ---
    Shuddap already. Some coffee
    ain't gonna kill anyone.
[13:15] ---
    How about being grateful I'm
    helping you out for free?
[13:17] ---
    See? I told you not to let
    Holly out of her cage!
[13:24] ---
    What are you talking about, "helping?"
[13:27] ---
    You've always been like this!
[13:29] ---
    You just have fun teasing
    us and dragging us around!
[13:32] ---
    Do you understand how inconsiderate it is
    to play around when there's a person missing?
[13:36] ---
    You keep complaining like that and
    you'll turn into a cow yourself.
[13:40] ---
    Here.
[13:42] ---
    This is...
[13:43] ---
    Yeah...
[13:45] ---
    Sleeping beauty has woken up.
[13:49] ---
    Um...
[13:51] ---
    Why do we...
[13:53] ---
    ...have to wear these clothes?
[13:57] ---
    It's a special room, so
    the security is tight.
[14:00] ---
    We'll get through it by saying
    you two are her friends.
[14:03] ---
    Got it?
[14:08] ---
    Who are you?
[14:09] ---
    Some friends for a visit!
[14:13] ---
    Doesn't this look even more suspicious?
[14:15] ---
    Don't you worry! You look
    like a cute girl to me!
[14:20] ---
    But, why?!
[14:22] ---
    I'm sure this is just temporary.
    She'll recover them in no time.
[14:28] ---
    Please, stay calm.
[14:38] ---
    P-Pardon us...
[14:41] ---
    We guys, er, girls... We
    want to be your friend!
[14:46] ---
    'Kay?
[14:47] ---
    Yes, we do!
[14:55] ---
    Um...
[15:01] ---
    We brought you a present. Would you like one?
[15:05] ---
    You guys came to ask
    about my Dad, didn't you?
[15:09] ---
    But, I don't remember anything.
[15:12] ---
    Psy, she...
[15:14] ---
    Has she lost her memories?
[15:17] ---
    Okay, time for your exam!
[15:19] ---
    You good-for-nothings beat it already.
[15:23] ---
    What's the matter? Why the long face?
[15:25] ---
    You look worse than my 80 year old granny!
[15:29] ---
    A doggy?
[15:30] ---
    My name is Holly. Nice to meet you.
[15:33] ---
    Okay...
[15:34] ---
    When I was your age, I once wore
    my pajamas for a whole week.
[15:39] ---
    I was bored and all alone,
    so I played like this.
[15:44] ---
    A whole week?
[15:46] ---
    You sleepyhead!
[15:49] ---
    Yeah...
[15:50] ---
    Did you have scary dreams?
[15:54] ---
    Dreams?
[15:55] ---
    Like, a dream where a demon appears...
[16:00] ---
    A demon? What kind of demon?
[16:03] ---
    Its eyes flash bright red,
[16:06] ---
    and then it attacks people.
[16:08] ---
    And it has super sharp claws...
[16:12] ---
    Then it... to my Dad...
[16:15] ---
    You remember?
[16:16] ---
    Please tell us, what happened to your Dad?
[16:18] ---
    That's enough...
[16:22] ---
    Don't worry, it was just a dream.
[16:24] ---
    Your Dad'll be coming back, just you wait.
[16:27] ---
    You know about Heroman?
[16:29] ---
    He'll KO any demon in one hit!
[16:34] ---
    Really?
[16:36] ---
    Yeah, he will.
[16:48] ---
    Maybe I should see an eye doctor...
[16:50] ---
    Holly looks like she's being serious.
[17:04] ---
    Where do you think you're going?
[17:07] ---
    Um... To a friend's place.
[17:09] ---
    Don't worry, I'll be right back.
[17:12] ---
    Return to your room this instant.
[17:14] ---
    Can't I go out, just for a little bit?
[17:17] ---
    I've been stuck here for three days!
[17:19] ---
    Then I will come with you.
[17:21] ---
    I'll get ready right away.
[17:23] ---
    No, no, that's okay...
[17:25] ---
    A friend you can't introduce to your
    parents? I can't approve of that.
[17:29] ---
    It's not that "Joey" boy
    I've heard about, is it?
[17:32] ---
    You don't know anything about Joey, Dad!
[17:35] ---
    Lina!
[17:37] ---
    Lina...
[17:40] ---
    Both me and your mother worry about you.
[17:43] ---
    With Will gone, if something
    were to happen to you...
[17:51] ---
    Dad...
[18:02] ---
    Back to square one, I guess.
[18:04] ---
    We're quite literally back where we started.
[18:09] ---
    Yeah, no complaining.
[18:10] ---
    They say the criminal always returns
    to the scene of the crime, right?
[18:14] ---
    We'll stake the place out, and the
    culprit is sure to turn up!
[18:17] ---
    Wait, you plan to stay here how long?
[18:20] ---
    How long? You expect me to
    just give up empty-handed?
[18:25] ---
    What'll we do, Joey? Now's
    our chance to escape...
[18:28] ---
    Okay. Run on a count of three...
[18:31] ---
    One...
[18:31] ---
    Two...
[18:32] ---
    Three!
[18:33] ---
    Hey boneheads!
[18:36] ---
    The Professor was investigating
    the soil here, right?
[18:39] ---
    Yeah, so?
[18:43] ---
    Look, the plant's dead.
[18:44] ---
    Don't you think that's odd?
[18:46] ---
    What do you mean?
[18:50] ---
    I know the basic outline of the incidents
    and the status of the investigation.
[18:53] ---
    But why should we get involved
    in this string of abductions?
[18:57] ---
    Isn't this a job for the police?
[18:59] ---
    We've been notified by the government
    to help in the investigation.
[19:04] ---
    This is...
[19:05] ---
    Quite the eye opener, yes?
[19:11] ---
    Rock daisies...
[19:14] ---
    It's a very hardy flower that
    can even survive in the desert.
[19:17] ---
    Why would it have died?
[19:19] ---
    You sure know a lot. Did
    you work at a flower shop?
[19:26] ---
    My mother loved this flower.
[19:29] ---
    I heard that my dad would bring
    them back with him from work a lot.
[19:37] ---
    Man, I'm starving. Let's get some dinner.
[19:41] ---
    Your treat, Joey!
[19:43] ---
    Why me?
[19:45] ---
    Sis!
[19:51] ---
    Holly!
[19:52] ---
    Sis!
[19:58] ---
    Will?
[20:05] ---
    Psy, take care of Holly.
[20:07] ---
    Leave her to me!
[20:24] ---
    Heroman...
[20:27] ---
    Engage!
[20:38] ---
    Will, is that you?
[20:40] ---
    Are you the one who
    attacked Professor Denton?
[20:44] ---
    Answer me!
[20:51] ---
    Heroman...
[20:54] ---
    Attack!
[21:14] ---
    After him, Heroman!
[21:22] ---
    Where'd he go?
[21:25] ---
    Ow...
[21:26] ---
    You're awake?
[21:30] ---
    Where's Joey?
[21:31] ---
    Don't worry. We should just stay here.
[21:34] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?
[21:36] ---
    You're just gonna leave
    Joey out there, alone?
[21:38] ---
    N-No! He's going after the...
[21:41] ---
    Well... Whatever, Joey's fine!
[21:43] ---
    I can't believe you, Psy! And
    you call yourself his friend!
[21:49] ---
    Wait, Holly! Don't go that way!
[21:53] ---
    Damn it...
[21:54] ---
    Joey!
[21:56] ---
    Joey!
[21:58] ---
    Joey!
[21:59] ---
    Where are you, Joey?
[22:02] ---
    Just you wait, I'm coming to save you!
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    Sis, where are you? Where did you go?
[23:56] ---
    Sis!
[23:59] ---
    It seemed like Joey and the gang's
    investigation had gotten to the bottom of it,
[24:02] ---
    but now, even Holly has gone missing.
[24:05] ---
    Joey begins to walk the path of truth in
    order to take back that which is dear to him.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #21: Emotion.
[24:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:47] ---
    How long is this going to take?
[01:50] ---
    While we're wasting time
    here, the guy's escaping!
[01:53] ---
    I-I wouldn't be worried about Holly, though.
[01:55] ---
    That guy's probably seriously
    regretting it by now.
[01:59] ---
    Bet he never counted on
    grabbing someone so violent.
[02:02] ---
    Stop going on about my sister like that.
[02:05] ---
    I'm not in the mood for joking around.
[02:08] ---
    Yeah...
[02:10] ---
    Nothing's changed.
[02:12] ---
    We haven't discovered in what
    direction they escaped to.
[02:14] ---
    The only clue we have is your testimony.
[02:17] ---
    The criminal is a guy with red eyes!
[02:19] ---
    And he escaped after grabbing Holly!
[02:22] ---
    A guy with red eyes?
[02:24] ---
    I have something I'd like
    you to confirm for me.
[02:28] ---
    That's...
[02:30] ---
    We're in pursuit of a man that's
    caused a series of incidents.
[02:35] ---
    The man you encountered...
[02:37] ---
    He seemed similar, but...
[02:38] ---
    I can't be sure...
[02:43] ---
    I see.
[02:46] ---
    I don't know what exactly is going
    on, but we may need your help.
[02:51] ---
    If we make any progress, we'll contact you.
[02:54] ---
    Joey, don't get down on yourself.
[02:57] ---
    I won't...
[03:06] ---
    Will...
[03:08] ---
    What the heck are you doing?
[03:26] ---
    It's no use. The files about
    the incidents won't open.
[03:30] ---
    And I thought we might get a clue if we
    searched through the Professor's computer.
[03:35] ---
    Do you think Will is responsible?
[03:37] ---
    Of course not!
[03:39] ---
    That guy's not gonna go
    around attacking people.
[03:42] ---
    I don't know, but he seemed really similar.
[03:44] ---
    Could it be that he's been completely
    taken over by the Skrugg?
[03:48] ---
    You're seriously doubting him?
[03:51] ---
    You're nuts.
[03:52] ---
    That guy is never gonna do
    something that'd hurt people.
[03:55] ---
    Did you forget already?
[03:57] ---
    He attacked us before to
    get back the Skrugg weapon.
[04:00] ---
    My sister might also...
[04:02] ---
    This is completely different than before!
[04:04] ---
    How can you be so sure of that?
[04:06] ---
    Calm down.
[04:08] ---
    You getting all upset is just
    going to make things worse.
[04:15] ---
    What's important now is finding Holly,
    not worrying about who's responsible.
[04:20] ---
    I know.
[04:26] ---
    But, how?
[04:32] ---
    Soil? Why?
[04:44] ---
    These are the samples the
    Professor was researching.
[04:47] ---
    And the place they were taken
    from is written on them.
[04:50] ---
    So that's where he hid them?
[04:52] ---
    He said that the soil was a witness
    to the incidents... Is that true?
[04:56] ---
    He also said something about
    "they're all connected..."
[05:00] ---
    Where was he heading?
[05:02] ---
    Maybe there is some connection
    between all the different places.
[05:13] ---
    What's the X?
[05:18] ---
    That is definitely a fascinating analysis.
[05:21] ---
    Our science team has discovered an unknown
    element in the soil samples Matthew Denton took.
[05:27] ---
    We call it "Component X."
[05:29] ---
    It's the reason the plants
    in the area had dried up.
[05:32] ---
    Then that suspect really
    is connected to the Skrugg?
[05:37] ---
    I don't know that yet.
[05:38] ---
    But it might be a clue
    to our culprit's hideout.
[05:43] ---
    Agent Hughes.
[05:45] ---
    Please take a look at the main monitor.
[05:52] ---
    That's...
[05:54] ---
    I've plotted the places where the
    soil samples were taken on the map.
[05:58] ---
    Then, taking into account the concentration
    of Component X found in each location...
[06:03] ---
    The soil contamination fans out like this...
[06:06] ---
    And the origin?
[06:07] ---
    In the northeast industrial
    sector... A mountain range.
[06:10] ---
    There's an abandoned mine.
[06:12] ---
    I see.
[06:14] ---
    No better place to hide than that.
[06:27] ---
    Matthew Denton's van has been found
    on the road at the foot of the mine.
[06:33] ---
    Thanks to your quick thinking,
    we've got the trail of the culprit.
[06:37] ---
    That's quite impressive work.
[06:42] ---
    I understand your feelings,
[06:44] ---
    but it's possible that we're up
    against a remnant of the Skrugg.
[06:47] ---
    If you let your personal feelings get in
    the way, you're putting your life at risk.
[06:51] ---
    Yeah, you don't need to tell us that.
[06:55] ---
    Fine, then.
[06:56] ---
    We will need Heroman and your
    cooperation for this plan.
[07:00] ---
    Especially you, Joey.
[07:02] ---
    You probably know the inside
    of that coal mine very well.
[07:07] ---
    The operation starts in one hour.
    We'll finish this before sunrise.
[07:36] ---
    Still worried about him?
[07:40] ---
    I don't know what I should do.
[07:44] ---
    I'll fight anyone if it's for my sister.
[07:48] ---
    Even if it's Will...
[07:53] ---
    But... Then, Lina would...
[08:11] ---
    I thought I'd made up my mind...
[08:14] ---
    If you hesitate the ball will
    get taken away from you...
[08:17] ---
    You learn that when you
    play football like I used to.
[08:20] ---
    Will and I were always on the same team.
[08:25] ---
    I was the running back and
    he was the quarterback.
[08:28] ---
    We were great teammates... Whenever our
    eyes met, we'd face off like a scrimmage...
[08:38] ---
    What the hell do you think you're doing?
[08:40] ---
    Why didn't you go where I told you?
[08:43] ---
    I got results, so what's your problem?
[08:45] ---
    I am the captain!
[08:47] ---
    You trying to make me look like a chump?
[08:49] ---
    I thought you wanted to become
    a victorious hero, right?
[08:52] ---
    Stop being such a stubborn
    fool and throw me the ball!
[08:56] ---
    I'll put this game away!
[09:17] ---
    Set! Hut!
[09:26] ---
    Psy, I'm givin' you the
    ball just like you wanted!
[09:31] ---
    You idiot!
[09:33] ---
    Throw it right!
[09:45] ---
    All right!
[10:27] ---
    It was strange...
[10:29] ---
    My leg hurt so bad, even though I was
    supposed to have lost all feeling in it.
[10:33] ---
    I wanted to run again... I wanted to
    score a touchdown, one more time...
[10:38] ---
    But with this leg, I'll never
    run on the field again...
[10:43] ---
    Even though I knew it was an
    accident I invited upon myself,
[10:46] ---
    I couldn't forgive Will.
[11:16] ---
    I found out later.
[11:19] ---
    He resigned as Captain.
[11:22] ---
    I think he suffered just as much as I did.
[11:31] ---
    Will can definitely got on your nerves.
[11:34] ---
    But I realize this now.
[11:36] ---
    He's not someone that can go hurting
    other people and live with it.
[11:41] ---
    It's not him that kidnapped Holly, understand?
[11:47] ---
    I believe you, Psy.
[12:10] ---
    You're really going inside?
[12:13] ---
    Yeah. This is our revenge match.
[12:17] ---
    We're gonna bring back
    Holly and the Professor!
[12:20] ---
    Yeah!
[12:52] ---
    What's with this place?
[12:53] ---
    It's all damp and burning hot.
[12:56] ---
    It wasn't like this before...
[13:05] ---
    These are Prof. Denton's glasses!
[13:07] ---
    Bingo!
[13:08] ---
    The Professor and Holly must be in here!
[13:12] ---
    Let's hurry.
[13:35] ---
    What in the world...
[13:37] ---
    Joey, look at that!
[13:40] ---
    The culprit is gathering everyone here!
[13:47] ---
    It couldn't be...
[13:54] ---
    Is my sister in one of those?
[13:56] ---
    Holly's in there?
[13:59] ---
    Holly!
[14:02] ---
    Who's there?
[14:04] ---
    Is someone there?
[14:07] ---
    Over there!
[14:11] ---
    Sis!
[14:12] ---
    Professor!
[14:13] ---
    It's you!
[14:15] ---
    Joey and Psy!
[14:20] ---
    Why is Heroman with you?
[14:23] ---
    Am I dreaming?
[14:25] ---
    See, I told you that Joey and
    Psy would come to save us!
[14:31] ---
    Phew, that was close.
[14:33] ---
    We'd have been stuck in
    a capsule before long.
[14:39] ---
    Do you have any idea how worried
    we were about you? Sheesh...
[14:44] ---
    Sorry for taking so long.
[14:46] ---
    Why'd you come to save us?
[14:48] ---
    You're just putting yourself in more danger.
[14:52] ---
    I guess I get my fearlessness from you, Sis.
[14:58] ---
    Idiot.
[15:07] ---
    The freak's here!
[15:09] ---
    Professor Denton, take care of my sister!
[15:12] ---
    Okay, got it!
[15:14] ---
    Joey...
[15:23] ---
    Over here!
[15:24] ---
    Hey!
[15:25] ---
    Let me go!
[15:26] ---
    Joey!
[15:28] ---
    Joey!
[15:34] ---
    Heroman...
[15:37] ---
    Attack!
[15:55] ---
    Heroman...
[15:57] ---
    Blast!
[16:17] ---
    I knew it! It's not Will!
[16:52] ---
    Heroman!
[17:02] ---
    There's another one, damn it?
[17:04] ---
    It's hard to fight here, I'm
    worried about a cave in!
[17:07] ---
    Let's follow the plan and lead them outside!
[17:11] ---
    Heroman, over here!
[17:29] ---
    Psy!
[17:45] ---
    Think you can catch me, you monster?
[17:47] ---
    I'll lead you straight to your grave!
[18:06] ---
    Psy's in danger!
[18:08] ---
    If I don't do something
    about this guy quick...
[18:21] ---
    What's the matter, monster?
    Follow me, damn it!
[18:42] ---
    Touchdown...
[18:47] ---
    I'm gonna score a touchdown!
[18:53] ---
    I... can still run!
[19:07] ---
    And that's a touchdown!
[19:11] ---
    Fire!
[19:19] ---
    Good.
[19:24] ---
    It's a Skrugg! Keep shooting!
[19:36] ---
    Joey, Heroman!
[19:41] ---
    Heroman...
[19:44] ---
    Finish!
[20:07] ---
    Psy, are you okay?
[20:08] ---
    Man, I suck...
[20:10] ---
    I tripped up again in the clutch...
[20:12] ---
    That's not true. You're
    the one that stopped him.
[20:26] ---
    It's happened again...
[20:28] ---
    Like it did with Dad...
[20:29] ---
    This place is cursed.
[20:32] ---
    That accident was here?
[20:35] ---
    And yet... Even though I
    should have protected him...
[20:40] ---
    I couldn't do anything...
[20:41] ---
    I'm a terrible sister.
[20:43] ---
    You shouldn't be so disappointed in yourself.
[20:46] ---
    Maybe you should believe in
    their strength a bit more?
[20:50] ---
    See?
[20:58] ---
    It's them...
[21:01] ---
    We're back, Sis.
[21:03] ---
    Sorry for making you worry.
[21:06] ---
    Ow!
[21:08] ---
    Joey, Psy, thank you...
[21:18] ---
    Um...
[21:20] ---
    Sis?
[21:23] ---
    You see...
[21:25] ---
    Before that... Since when did you
    and Heroman get to be friends?
[21:30] ---
    Introduce me, man!
[21:32] ---
    Do you remember me?
[21:34] ---
    It must be fate that we can meet again!
[21:37] ---
    I'll give you my number! If
    you're ever in trouble...
[21:41] ---
    I thought she'd give turn it down
    a notch after going through that...
[21:44] ---
    Nothing's too much for my sister.
[21:47] ---
    But, that's what's great about her.
[21:51] ---
    Psy?
[21:52] ---
    What's the matter?
[21:55] ---
    Psy!
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    I looked up to the hero that
    Mom always talked about.
[23:57] ---
    But, my sister...
[23:58] ---
    Joey begins to worry about the danger
    he's placed his sister and friends in.
[24:05] ---
    Looking for the answer, Joey searches the
    feelings of the past, present, and future.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #22: Memories.
[24:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:40] ---
    My Mom used to tell me all the time...
[01:44] ---
    About the Hero of Center City...
[01:48] ---
    There was a fire in that coal mine
    13 years ago... A terrible accident.
[01:55] ---
    A great number of people working inside
    became trapped with no way out.
[02:01] ---
    When the people caught up in the fire
    started giving up and losing the will to live,
[02:08] ---
    a single coal miner stood up.
[02:11] ---
    He said, "Don't give up!"
[02:14] ---
    He took the other miners and
    ran into an old passage.
[02:20] ---
    But their final hope of escape
    was blocked by piles of rubble.
[02:27] ---
    With the flames bearing down on them,
    the coal miners didn't give up.
[02:43] ---
    Even so...
[02:52] ---
    Hey!
[03:02] ---
    That coal miner gave everything
    he had to save everyone.
[03:08] ---
    That was...
[03:11] ---
    ...my father.
[03:19] ---
    Man, way to be all gloomy
    right in the morning.
[03:24] ---
    I couldn't protect him.
[03:27] ---
    I couldn't protect him like Dad did.
[03:32] ---
    If I was a hero like Dad...
[03:37] ---
    Psy wouldn't have been injured like that...
[03:41] ---
    What the hell are you talking about?
[03:43] ---
    That guy ain't no hero in the first place!
[03:45] ---
    Dad is a hero who protected
    everyone in Center City!
[03:48] ---
    That worthless idiot is no hero!
[03:51] ---
    He's a hero!
[03:55] ---
    Then tell me.
[03:57] ---
    What is a hero?
[04:16] ---
    Listen, Heroman...
[04:19] ---
    Even before I met you, I
    always admired heroes...
[04:23] ---
    Because I was weak, and a coward...
[04:27] ---
    And Dad was a great man, strong and
    reliable... Everyone could count on him.
[04:33] ---
    I wanted to be a hero like him.
[04:36] ---
    But I don't remember much about Dad.
[04:42] ---
    A hero... huh?
[04:54] ---
    What's the matter, Joey? Did
    you get picked on again?
[05:00] ---
    You Dad was a hero, and he'd
    never cry, no matter what.
[05:06] ---
    So you shouldn't cry so easily, Joey.
[05:11] ---
    See?
[05:18] ---
    Don't worry about it, Joey.
[05:20] ---
    I'll all healed up. They said
    I'll be discharged tomorrow.
[05:24] ---
    Really?
[05:25] ---
    Yeah!
[05:27] ---
    And besides, I got hurt
    because of my own weakness.
[05:32] ---
    It's not your fault.
[05:35] ---
    But...
[05:36] ---
    I wanted to protect you.
[05:38] ---
    Yeah, that's it! That's what's important.
[05:41] ---
    That's exactly why you're my hero!
[05:46] ---
    Hero... huh?
[05:50] ---
    A hero, you ask?
[05:52] ---
    You should know a lot about heroes, right?
[05:56] ---
    M-Me?
[05:57] ---
    Yeah, obviously.
[06:00] ---
    H-How did you know?
[06:02] ---
    About Heroma-
[06:03] ---
    What are you talking about?
[06:05] ---
    Brian Jones! He's the hero of Center City!
[06:09] ---
    Brian?
[06:11] ---
    Oh, that name brings back memories.
[06:14] ---
    You knew him?
[06:15] ---
    Of course! Ain't no one that doesn't
    who worked in the coal mines.
[06:22] ---
    I'm his son, Joseph!
[06:25] ---
    Amazing! You're Brian and Catherine's kid?
[06:29] ---
    I see... My, you've grown.
[06:32] ---
    That guy was always thinking about
    helping his friends over himself.
[06:38] ---
    And that's the reason it happened...
[06:42] ---
    He had a habit of tapping his head...
[06:45] ---
    "I'm gonna protect them," he'd say...
[06:49] ---
    There's no doubting it! He's our hero!
[06:56] ---
    Thank you!
[06:58] ---
    See you tomorrow!
[07:00] ---
    Dad was a hero! For real!
[07:03] ---
    Joey!
[07:07] ---
    Lina!
[07:12] ---
    Why are you here?
[07:14] ---
    Um, it's just...
[07:16] ---
    I want to ask...
[07:17] ---
    Hey, listen!
[07:19] ---
    My dad really was a hero!
[07:23] ---
    The stories Mom used to tell me were true!
[07:26] ---
    Oh, I see...
[07:28] ---
    Good for you, then...
[07:30] ---
    I've got to hurry and tell my sister!
[07:32] ---
    Later!
[07:34] ---
    Wait, Joey...
[07:44] ---
    Sis! Hey, Sis!
[07:47] ---
    What?
[07:48] ---
    Dad really was a hero!
[07:50] ---
    That's what everyone said!
[07:51] ---
    So what?
[07:53] ---
    It doesn't matter what other people say.
[07:56] ---
    Why are you saying things like that?
[07:58] ---
    Why do you say that about Dad?
[08:00] ---
    Oh yeah... You don't remember
    much about him, do you?
[08:07] ---
    Why?
[08:11] ---
    Why do you say such mean things about Dad?
[08:14] ---
    Will you shut up? I've told you already.
[08:18] ---
    That guy ain't no hero!
[08:20] ---
    He's just a good-for-nothing!
[08:25] ---
    Sis...
[08:28] ---
    You don't understand, Sis!
[08:37] ---
    What's the matter?
[08:39] ---
    It's nothing.
[08:47] ---
    I know more about him than anyone...
[09:33] ---
    Who is it?
[09:39] ---
    Will?
[09:42] ---
    Stay there.
[09:45] ---
    I don't want you to see me like this.
[09:49] ---
    Don't go away anywhere again!
[09:53] ---
    How are mother and father?
[09:55] ---
    They're always worrying about you!
[09:58] ---
    Isn't that obvious?
[10:01] ---
    And not just our parents...
    Everyone at school, too!
[10:05] ---
    It didn't seem that way to me.
[10:08] ---
    I met Joey.
[10:10] ---
    Joey?
[10:12] ---
    He didn't say anything?
[10:14] ---
    True... There's no way he could
    tell you that we clashed...
[10:18] ---
    No way...
[10:20] ---
    Don't involve yourself with him anymore.
[10:23] ---
    Do you understand?
[10:24] ---
    Will...
[10:27] ---
    Lina.
[10:28] ---
    What is it?
[10:30] ---
    I came today to say goodbye.
[10:34] ---
    I do not think we will see each other again.
[10:36] ---
    Will!
[10:37] ---
    Take care of our parents.
[10:39] ---
    Wait, Will!
[10:51] ---
    Lina!
[10:55] ---
    Father...
[10:56] ---
    What's the matter, Lina?
[10:59] ---
    Did something happen at school?
[11:05] ---
    It's about my brother...
[11:08] ---
    I thought I told you not to concern
    yourself with Will any longer.
[11:12] ---
    But, Father...
[11:13] ---
    Understand, Lina?
[11:14] ---
    Will is dead!
[11:16] ---
    No!
[11:17] ---
    He's dead!
[11:20] ---
    No!
[11:21] ---
    My brother is not dead!
[11:23] ---
    Hey, Lina!
[11:24] ---
    Where do you think you're going?
[11:36] ---
    I'm hungry...
[11:41] ---
    Hey, Heroman... Why do you think my
    sister says such mean things about Dad?
[11:47] ---
    Everyone sings his praises...
    Everyone except her...
[11:53] ---
    What is a hero, anyway?
[11:59] ---
    A true hero...
[12:10] ---
    Maybe I'll try asking.
[12:46] ---
    I knew you'd be here.
[12:49] ---
    Sis...
[12:50] ---
    You never change.
[12:51] ---
    Every time anything happens
    you come here to tell them.
[12:54] ---
    How about actually moving on, for a change?
[12:57] ---
    So, you found the answer?
[13:00] ---
    About what a hero really is?
[13:03] ---
    Before that... Tell me about Dad.
[13:08] ---
    Why is it that you say Dad isn't a hero?
[13:13] ---
    Because he did something
    I just can't forgive.
[13:17] ---
    He lied to me.
[13:21] ---
    On that day, he left the
    house like he always did.
[13:27] ---
    He promised that he'd be back by 6.
[13:32] ---
    That was the last time I ever saw him.
[14:10] ---
    After who knows how many days,
    I finally figured it out.
[14:15] ---
    He was never coming back.
[14:18] ---
    He forgot the promise he made me.
[14:23] ---
    Yeah, he may be a hero that saved
    a bunch of people's lives...
[14:28] ---
    Everyone was thankful to
    him, and praised him...
[14:32] ---
    But who cares about that?
[14:35] ---
    What about the family he left behind?
[14:40] ---
    Mom was proud of Dad.
[14:44] ---
    She never said anything
    bad about him like you.
[14:47] ---
    Did you ever see Mom cry?
[14:53] ---
    She never showed her tears to anyone.
[14:56] ---
    No matter how sad she was...
    No matter how much in pain she was...
[15:01] ---
    She was always smiling.
[15:05] ---
    But...
[15:06] ---
    But I know she must have
    been crying in secret...
[15:12] ---
    All alone, so that we wouldn't see...
[15:15] ---
    Crying out, "If only he was still here..."
[15:19] ---
    She pushed herself for us... She forced herself...
[15:24] ---
    And before we knew it, she died...
[15:29] ---
    Sis...
[15:32] ---
    You see...
[15:34] ---
    Even if everyone around the world looks
    up to him, and praised what he did...
[15:40] ---
    I'd rather...
[15:42] ---
    ...he'd stayed by our side.
[15:48] ---
    He acted all cool and tried too hard
    to be a hero... That's why he died.
[15:54] ---
    It's funny, you know?
[15:56] ---
    All that's left for his family
    is that little dirty helmet.
[16:05] ---
    He'd tap his head, and say
    "I'm gonna protect them..."
[16:28] ---
    Hey, what's wrong?
[16:32] ---
    Just come!
[16:42] ---
    I heard that Dad had a
    habit of tapping his head.
[16:47] ---
    He never did anything like that at home...
[16:50] ---
    I bet Dad thought about his family
    a lot more than you think, Sis.
[17:01] ---
    "I'm gonna protect them."
[17:03] ---
    In other words...
[17:06] ---
    That's what it was.
[17:28] ---
    You're the reason I get up everyday!
[17:40] ---
    We were always with him.
[17:44] ---
    See?
[17:54] ---
    Dad... You idiot...
[18:14] ---
    Will you tell me where Lina is?
[18:17] ---
    I've already searched everywhere around here!
[18:20] ---
    But, I can't find her anywhere!
[18:22] ---
    Lina?
[18:34] ---
    Hello?
[18:36] ---
    Lina, are you okay?
[18:42] ---
    Honestly... No, I'm not really okay.
[18:47] ---
    Where are you now?
[18:49] ---
    Everyone's worried about you!
[18:50] ---
    What do mean, everyone?
[18:53] ---
    Hey Lina, where are you? Come home imme-
[18:57] ---
    Lina! Hey, Lina!
[19:00] ---
    Oh, my... This is trouble.
[19:05] ---
    Um...
[19:06] ---
    I'll go look for her.
[19:37] ---
    Joey...
[19:38] ---
    How did you know I was here?
[19:40] ---
    I heard the sound of waves over
    the phone, so I figured...
[19:48] ---
    Did you have a fight with your father?
[19:52] ---
    I had a fight with my sister about Dad.
[19:55] ---
    With your sister?
[19:59] ---
    Dad died when I was still little.
[20:03] ---
    So, I don't remember very
    much about him at all.
[20:09] ---
    And, well...
[20:12] ---
    But, thanks to that, my sister and I feel
    closer to him now than we did before.
[20:21] ---
    Sorry... I didn't mean to bother you...
[20:24] ---
    No, no!
[20:26] ---
    That's not what I was trying to say.
[20:29] ---
    It's...
[20:33] ---
    How should I put this?
[20:37] ---
    I understand.
[20:41] ---
    I'm...
[20:45] ---
    I'm not going to waver anymore.
[20:49] ---
    I can do this!
[20:56] ---
    Joey?
[20:59] ---
    This is...
[21:12] ---
    I bet that a new ability
    has awakened in Heroman.
[21:20] ---
    So, what about you, Lina?
[21:23] ---
    Didn't you have something you
    wanted to talk with me about?
[21:26] ---
    Yeah...
[21:28] ---
    I did...
[21:31] ---
    Don't involve yourself with him any longer.
[21:38] ---
    Lina?
[21:40] ---
    Joey!
[21:43] ---
    Um...
[21:47] ---
    Professor Denton?
[21:50] ---
    Hello?
[21:53] ---
    Yes.
[21:57] ---
    Okay...
[21:59] ---
    Yes.
[22:01] ---
    Professor Denton wanted to
    know if you were here with me.
[22:05] ---
    Hello?
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:51] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:53] ---
    I won't waver any longer!
[23:55] ---
    That's why I'm going to go, and finish this!
[23:58] ---
    "Everything is connected."
[24:00] ---
    That's what Hughes said in a hushed voice...
[24:02] ---
    The series of events that seemed
    isolated at first glance...
[24:05] ---
    When Joey begins to home in on
    the core of all the incidents,
[24:09] ---
    communications are cut off
    from the White House...
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #23: Sortie!

    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:33] ---
    Professor Denton?
[01:37] ---
    Hello?
[01:39] ---
    Professor Denton wanted to
    know if you were here with me.
[01:43] ---
    Hello?
[01:52] ---
    So, what did you want to talk with us about?
[01:54] ---
    Mr. Hughes, Professor Denton?
[01:57] ---
    Well, it's kind of...
[02:00] ---
    With the help of the NIA, I've
    looked into a bunch of things,
[02:04] ---
    and we've confirmed we
    have a bit of a problem...
[02:06] ---
    A problem?
[02:08] ---
    What do you mean by that?
[02:10] ---
    They're connected.
[02:14] ---
    Everything is.
[02:36] ---
    I'm getting a strong response...
[02:37] ---
    How did they come so far so fast?
[02:40] ---
    I must hurry!
[02:55] ---
    Connected?
[02:56] ---
    Yes, they are.
[02:58] ---
    Including what happened
    last time at the coal mine.
[03:00] ---
    As well as the series of incidents
    caused by your friend.
[03:04] ---
    B-Busted...
[03:06] ---
    Furthermore, the accident on the
    island was not unrelated either.
[03:12] ---
    That vine monster?
[03:15] ---
    Joey, I bet you've already
    got a hunch about it, right?
[03:20] ---
    About the thing that connects
    all these incidents...
[03:22] ---
    It's...
[03:25] ---
    ...the remnants of the Skrugg!
[03:27] ---
    Hey, hold it a second!
[03:30] ---
    It's true that the monsters in the
    coal mine resembled the Skrugg,
[03:33] ---
    but didn't Joey and Heroman
    already defeat Kogorr?
[03:36] ---
    Yes, Kogorr has been defeated.
[03:38] ---
    But that explosion didn't
    wipe out everything.
[03:47] ---
    The ones that Will is destroying
    and that I had are examples.
[03:51] ---
    Well, what are you going to do, really?
[03:54] ---
    Anyone would be interested in this
    hyper-technology, not just scientists...
[04:00] ---
    Stop making excuses.
[04:02] ---
    So then, Will was...
[04:03] ---
    Yes. His goal is to destroy
    the remnants of the Skrugg.
[04:08] ---
    He must be trying to accomplish
    something by doing that, yes?
[04:14] ---
    I cannot allow traces of the
    Skrugg to be left on this planet.
[04:18] ---
    What you see with your
    eyes is not everything.
[04:21] ---
    Things have already begun to
    move underneath the surface.
[04:26] ---
    In other words, Will is not our enemy.
[04:30] ---
    Thank goodness.
[04:32] ---
    You won't like what's coming next, though.
[04:35] ---
    Because crisis is encroaching
    on the world this very second.
[05:09] ---
    Preparations are complete.
[05:13] ---
    All that's left is to take it back...
[05:20] ---
    What do you mean, crisis?
[05:22] ---
    Who is it, and what are they trying to do?
[05:25] ---
    I don't have firm answers
    to everything, of course.
[05:28] ---
    But it's only natural to think that the
    remnants of the Skrugg are trying something big.
[05:37] ---
    Otherwise there'd be no other explanation
    for the people kidnapped at the coal mine.
[05:42] ---
    That was the Skrugg?
[05:43] ---
    Yeah...
[05:44] ---
    It's just a guess, but I think what went
    on there was some sort of experiment.
[05:48] ---
    And I'm thinking that the monsters
    that showed up were somehow connected.
[05:53] ---
    Actually, similar incidents
    occurred all throughout the US.
[05:59] ---
    And that's exactly why we must find out the
    truth behind what's going on without delay.
[06:04] ---
    If not, we'll be in real trouble!
[06:11] ---
    It begins.
[06:12] ---
    We'll show them who the true
    rulers of this planet are!
[06:17] ---
    All that's left is to take it back.
[07:11] ---
    Those are...
[07:12] ---
    Skrugg!
[07:14] ---
    What are you doing? Open fire!
[07:29] ---
    Is it here?
[07:31] ---
    Do it.
[07:54] ---
    Mr. President!
[07:56] ---
    What is it?
[07:59] ---
    Take shelter immediately.
[08:00] ---
    Take shelter?
[08:02] ---
    What in the world is going on?
[08:04] ---
    There's been an accident in the bunker.
[08:06] ---
    Or more accurately, I don't know
    if it's an accident or something else.
[08:10] ---
    What are you talking about?
[08:11] ---
    The bunker shouldn't be in operation now...
[08:14] ---
    So then why did an accident happen?
[08:17] ---
    The details can wait, sir. First evacuate!
[08:19] ---
    No, you explain yourself first.
[08:22] ---
    Well...
[08:25] ---
    What's this?
[08:33] ---
    Those are...
[08:50] ---
    I'm too late?
[08:53] ---
    No, it's not over yet!
[09:01] ---
    I'll stop them, no matter the cost!
[09:08] ---
    Anyway, we'll investigate
    what they are trying to do.
[09:13] ---
    If you figure anything
    out, please contact us.
[09:16] ---
    Right.
[09:18] ---
    This is Hughes.
[09:21] ---
    What?!
[09:23] ---
    Understood. I'll be there soon.
[09:26] ---
    It seems we're too late!
[09:27] ---
    What happened?
[09:29] ---
    The White House has been
    taken over by the Skrugg!
[09:35] ---
    It seems it was a large scale attack.
[09:38] ---
    We've already lost communications
    with the White House.
[09:45] ---
    Get a helicopter ready.
[09:46] ---
    You'll come with us?
[09:48] ---
    Of course.
[09:49] ---
    This battle may determine the fate of the United States.
[09:53] ---
    I'd like you to keep that in mind.
[09:55] ---
    Yes...
[09:56] ---
    Then we should also...
[09:57] ---
    No, we'd just be holding Joey
    back if we went with him.
[10:01] ---
    And there's something else
    that we should be doing.
[10:05] ---
    Like what?
[10:07] ---
    I'm not saying we should sit on our hands.
[10:09] ---
    Then, what?
[10:10] ---
    I have an idea.
[10:13] ---
    Will you help me?
[10:16] ---
    Well, I 'spose I could...
[10:18] ---
    Um...
[10:19] ---
    What is it?
[10:21] ---
    How long do I have?
[10:25] ---
    How much time until we leave?
[10:31] ---
    60 minutes. Get ready by then.
[10:35] ---
    Okay!
[10:37] ---
    Hey, Joey! Where are you...
[10:39] ---
    Get a clue, Psy.
[10:42] ---
    Now, we should also get prepared.
[10:55] ---
    I won't waver any longer.
[10:58] ---
    I can do this!
[11:08] ---
    Lina, there's something I have to tell you!
[11:26] ---
    The mysterious creatures that
    invaded the White House
[11:30] ---
    are even now still increasing their numbers.
[11:32] ---
    We've received information that all
    communications from the White House have ceased
[11:37] ---
    but there has still been no official
    statement from the government.
[11:41] ---
    What's going on? Why the White House?
[11:45] ---
    This is only a rumor,
[11:47] ---
    but I've heard that the bunker under
    the White House isn't just a shelter,
[11:50] ---
    it's also an unofficial research laboratory.
[11:55] ---
    Like that island...
[11:57] ---
    They're an independent research organization,
[11:59] ---
    so I heard that neither the NIA or even the
    President himself know of its existence.
[12:06] ---
    So it's a remnant of the
    Skrugg, as we thought.
[12:10] ---
    Until we can get rid of it, there's no
    way to ensure the President's safety.
[12:33] ---
    I hope we make it in time.
[12:55] ---
    Yes?
[12:55] ---
    Lina?
[12:57] ---
    Joey?
[12:59] ---
    Yeah. Do you... have a sec?
[13:03] ---
    Yes. I have something I
    want to talk about, too.
[13:19] ---
    Lina...
[13:21] ---
    Lina.
[13:24] ---
    I met my brother.
[13:28] ---
    Will?
[13:29] ---
    He said that he met you and the others.
[13:35] ---
    Why didn't you tell me?
[13:39] ---
    That's because...
[13:41] ---
    I always believed in you.
[13:43] ---
    No! It's because...
[13:46] ---
    I thought that it would be really
    bad if you found out then.
[13:51] ---
    Bad? Why?
[13:53] ---
    Are you saying that my
    brother did something wrong?
[13:56] ---
    No! You see, it was all a misunderstanding!
[13:58] ---
    I don't want to hear your excuses!
[14:02] ---
    Lina...
[14:03] ---
    Go home.
[14:04] ---
    I don't want to see your
    face right now, Joey.
[14:35] ---
    Lina!
[14:40] ---
    I... I...
[14:44] ---
    I'll definitely...
[14:48] ---
    I'll definitely...
[14:50] ---
    ...definitely protect you!
[14:53] ---
    Huh? What?
[15:06] ---
    Wait!
[15:07] ---
    What did you say?
[15:09] ---
    I can't hear you!
[15:11] ---
    Joey!
[15:13] ---
    Joey!
[15:25] ---
    Are you okay?
[15:26] ---
    Yes.
[15:28] ---
    I don't have any regrets anymore.
[15:32] ---
    Or rather, I'm fully prepared.
[15:36] ---
    So, what should I do now?
[15:39] ---
    Read this.
[15:42] ---
    After we get to the airport, we'll take
    a private flight to Washington D.C.
[15:45] ---
    Take the time we're in the air to
    look through all that information.
[15:50] ---
    NIA's tactical team have also come up
    with a number of simulations you can use.
[15:57] ---
    You'll have whatever backup we can provide.
[16:01] ---
    If there's anything you need, we'll
    get it immediately. Just ask.
[16:06] ---
    Thank you very much.
[16:09] ---
    And there's one more thing... A
    present NIA has prepared for you.
[16:26] ---
    This is...
[16:27] ---
    NIA developed it at the
    direction of Mr. Denton.
[16:32] ---
    I'm sure it'll come in handy.
[18:38] ---
    Are you sure about this?
[18:39] ---
    Yes, we don't have any time.
[18:41] ---
    Please get me as close to
    the center as possible!
[18:44] ---
    Roger that.
[18:46] ---
    Got it? Hold the plane steady!
[18:48] ---
    Lower our speed as much as
    you can and drop them off!
[18:52] ---
    Understood, but I can't guarantee anything!
[18:55] ---
    Give it everything you've got!
[18:58] ---
    Opening rear bay doors!
[19:25] ---
    A new ability...
[19:27] ---
    Plus power armor that the
    Professor helped create...
[19:38] ---
    It'll be okay. I can do this.
[19:42] ---
    Are you ready, Heroman?
[19:59] ---
    Those are...
[20:00] ---
    No one said they could do that!
[20:07] ---
    Keep it up!
[20:08] ---
    Don't go down until we
    drop off Joey and Heroman!
[20:11] ---
    This is nuts!
[20:12] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[20:13] ---
    What is it?
[20:14] ---
    Please don't overdo it.
[20:15] ---
    There's no point if you and the
    others get wrapped up in the battle!
[20:18] ---
    Don't be silly!
[20:19] ---
    The least we can do is...
[20:20] ---
    I'm going.
[20:21] ---
    Wait, Joey!
[20:23] ---
    Damn it... Find some open ground!
[20:26] ---
    National Airport!
[20:27] ---
    Head there!
[20:31] ---
    Heroman... Go!
[20:39] ---
    We're counting on you, Joey, Heroman!
[21:56] ---
    I knew it...
[22:01] ---
    Their goal... is to resurrect Kogorr!
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    Heroman's battle strength should be increased
    by the power armor that the Professor developed.
[23:57] ---
    This is a battle that I can't afford to lose!
[24:00] ---
    The White House, now turned
    into a Skrugg base,
[24:03] ---
    continues to envelope the
    city and grow in size...
[24:06] ---
    The remnants of the Skrugg
    have only one goal...
[24:09] ---
    To resurrect Kogorr!
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #24: Resurrection.
[24:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!
[24:18] ---

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:38] ---
    It'll be okay. I can do this.
[01:43] ---
    Heroman...
[01:46] ---
    Go!
[01:50] ---
    We're counting on you, Joey, Heroman!
[02:42] ---
    Joey, can you hear me?
[02:44] ---
    Things have taken a turn for the worse.
[02:46] ---
    That plantlike substance X creature has
    embedded itself throughout the city,
[02:50] ---
    and it's continuing to spread
    out in all directions!
[02:53] ---
    The military has put up a defense,
    trying to stop its progress,
[02:57] ---
    but I don't think we can rely much on that.
[03:07] ---
    And with the well-being of the President
    at the White House still in question,
[03:12] ---
    a large-scale attack from the
    government is out of the question.
[03:16] ---
    But if we just leave them be,
    they'll devour the entire planet!
[03:22] ---
    We have to do something
    before that happens...
[03:24] ---
    Please, make the plan to rescue the President,
    Operation Thunderbird, a success!
[03:29] ---
    We're counting on you, Joey, Heroman!
[03:35] ---
    ...says you. So what the
    hell's goin' on here?
[03:42] ---
    Don't really know, but we're
    goin' after Joey or something.
[03:46] ---
    I've heard about it from this girly here.
[03:49] ---
    I have something I need
    to talk with Joey about.
[03:51] ---
    Even if you tell me to go home,
    I'm not going back, no way!
[03:54] ---
    We're not going for fun and games, you know!
[03:57] ---
    And what did you tell
    your parents about this?
[04:01] ---
    Whatever!
[04:05] ---
    Give me a break...
[04:08] ---
    Say something to them, Professor!
[04:11] ---
    Well, having another person along might
    come in handy during a crisis, I suppose.
[04:17] ---
    Why are you so calm about this?
[04:19] ---
    Why not?
[04:21] ---
    Having another person there to pick up Joey
    after everything's done would be lovely.
[04:27] ---
    Don't you think?
[04:30] ---
    Give me a break!
[04:33] ---
    What's with these people?
[04:37] ---
    So what are we planning on doing, then?
[04:41] ---
    We've gotten the complete support
    of the government now, see.
[04:46] ---
    There's quite a lot that we can do.
[04:50] ---
    Quite a lot, indeed...
[05:01] ---
    Things are proceeding well.
[05:03] ---
    At this rate, work will be complete shortly.
[05:07] ---
    Soon there will be no one
    left that can oppose us.
[05:12] ---
    Yes, no one at all...
[05:47] ---
    Heroman's power armor that the NIA
    made at the Professor's direction...
[05:52] ---
    The manual said that it amplifies
    Heroman's electrical powers, but...
[06:21] ---
    Wow!
[06:25] ---
    With this we might make it to the
    epicenter faster than I thought!
[06:33] ---
    A helicopter? Mr. Hughes?
[06:38] ---
    That's...
[06:39] ---
    Hiyas!
[06:41] ---
    Wherever there's trouble, I'm there!
[06:43] ---
    Wherever you find Heroman, I'm there!
[06:47] ---
    The All American Network reporter,
    Keisha Jackson, is on the scene!
[06:52] ---
    Start the relay! Is everything set?
[06:55] ---
    Anytime you're ready.
[06:59] ---
    That's Ms. Keisha from the other time!
[07:11] ---
    Whoa!
[07:13] ---
    They're the real deal!
[07:16] ---
    Those bombers... Are they leaving
    at your request, Prof. Denton?
[07:21] ---
    Yeah, basically.
[07:23] ---
    But is bombing the Skrugg
    going to accomplish anything?
[07:29] ---
    They're not going to bomb anything.
[07:31] ---
    I wouldn't be using my brain power at all
[07:34] ---
    if the only thing I was thinking
    of doing was attacking the enemy.
[07:37] ---
    Then, what are they for?
[07:39] ---
    For helping Joey and Heroman, of course!
[07:42] ---
    Help them?
[07:44] ---
    Do you two remember?
[07:46] ---
    Do you remember why Heroman got into a
    jam when he fought that robot, the MR-1?
[07:55] ---
    He ran out of energy!
[07:57] ---
    Exactly!
[07:59] ---
    Back then he managed to get through
    it thanks to that power plant.
[08:04] ---
    But it didn't have to go so well, really.
[08:07] ---
    I see.
[08:08] ---
    And this battle is sure to be a long one.
[08:13] ---
    Even with the power amplification parts
    I designed, his power is not infinite.
[08:19] ---
    I got ya!
[08:20] ---
    You're saying that we'll be in "charge"
    of Heroman's refueling, right?
[08:25] ---
    Exactly!
[08:27] ---
    But, how?
[08:29] ---
    You'll just have to look
    forward to it when you see it.
[08:32] ---
    Oh, give it a rest.
[08:33] ---
    In order for us to accomplish this goal, I've
    gotten my hands on the best possible equipment.
[08:41] ---
    His heart may be clouded, but Dr.
    Minami is truly a genius scientist!
[08:48] ---
    That's...
[08:53] ---
    Okay... Things are gonna get busy now.
[08:58] ---
    Please look at this! Can
    you tell where we are?
[09:02] ---
    This is what the area surrounding
    the White House looks like now!
[09:06] ---
    Who could have ever predicted witnessing
    a transformation like this?
[09:14] ---
    Watch out!
[09:22] ---
    Everyone, we've just come under
    attack from the mysterious creature!
[09:27] ---
    We're under attack!
[09:30] ---
    I can't fight like this.
[09:33] ---
    Mr. Hughes, can you hear me?
[09:36] ---
    What's wrong?
[09:39] ---
    There's a helicopter! A
    TV helicopter is here!
[09:42] ---
    What?
[09:51] ---
    Can you do something about it?
[09:57] ---
    Here we go!
[09:58] ---
    Understood. You guys
    concentrate on the battle.
[10:03] ---
    Honestly... Who in the world?
[10:09] ---
    Her again?
[10:12] ---
    Open up a line to the helicopter in the
    airspace above the White House, now!
[10:16] ---
    But don't worry, everyone!
[10:19] ---
    Everyone's hero, Heroman, is
    rushing toward the White House
[10:24] ---
    to save the President and
    officials at this very moment!
[10:29] ---
    We're in the middle of a broadcast!
[10:32] ---
    Yeah, I know, but...
[10:35] ---
    Well, let's go back to the studio for a bit!
[10:40] ---
    What?!
[10:42] ---
    An emergency message from the government...
[10:45] ---
    Just ignore it.
[10:46] ---
    Uh, they said they'll shoot
    us down if we don't answer...
[10:52] ---
    I'll talk to 'em. Switch over.
[10:55] ---
    What the hell are you thinking?!
[10:57] ---
    The airspace here is
    already a restricted area!
[11:00] ---
    We're riskin' our lives
    out here for this scoop!
[11:03] ---
    I don't know who you are, but you
    have no right to tell us to leave!
[11:07] ---
    Move away from the area immediately!
[11:09] ---
    If you don't we'll shoot you down!
[11:10] ---
    Go ahead and do it, then.
[11:13] ---
    Just consider the pressure you'll face from
    having that exposed on a live national broadcast.
[11:27] ---
    Heroman cannot fight freely with you there.
[11:33] ---
    If you feel any sort of responsibility,
    please leave the area immediately.
[11:38] ---
    Because of us?
[11:42] ---
    Then tell Heroman he
    shouldn't worry about us!
[11:46] ---
    If that would work I wouldn't
    have contacted you!
[11:49] ---
    If it's his duty to fight,
[11:51] ---
    then it's our duty to report!
[11:54] ---
    We have an obligation
    to report the truth about him!
[11:58] ---
    We're already prepared to give
    our lives for that cause!
[12:02] ---
    That's all! Over and out!
[12:04] ---
    Hey, wait...
[12:16] ---
    Joey!
[12:16] ---
    Mr. Hughes!
[12:18] ---
    Sorry... Just forget about it up there.
[12:20] ---
    W-What's that supposed to mean?
[12:22] ---
    They said that they'll take responsibility
    for anything that happens.
[12:25] ---
    So don't worry about them, and fight!
[12:27] ---
    It's because I can't do that I
    asked you in the first place!
[12:32] ---
    They don't seem like they'll budge.
[12:34] ---
    Instead of wasting time worrying about them,
    head to the White House as fast as you can!
[12:41] ---
    Joey...
[12:42] ---
    Joey, now is not the time to be
    worrying about single individuals...
[12:46] ---
    Saving the entire world is more important!
[12:56] ---
    Heroman!
[13:12] ---
    Heroman is now breaking through into
    the central area of the mysterious creature!
[13:17] ---
    Hold it a second...
[13:19] ---
    Get a shot of that!
[13:23] ---
    That's... a young boy!
[13:27] ---
    There's a young boy right next to Heroman!
[13:31] ---
    The boy is working together with Heroman!
[13:47] ---
    What is the meaning of this?
[13:49] ---
    Who in the world is this young boy?
[13:53] ---
    Get that shot over there!
[13:59] ---
    That's...
[14:00] ---
    Joey?
[14:01] ---
    The boy is not afraid,
    and is standing up and fighting!
[14:05] ---
    Are we dreaming?
[14:09] ---
    No, this is not a dream.
[14:11] ---
    This is reality!
[14:15] ---
    Oh? That boy looks just like Joey...
[14:19] ---
    That boy... That young man...
[14:23] ---
    He's fighting alongside Heroman...
[14:34] ---
    Hey... What kind of joke is this?
[14:42] ---
    Hey!
[14:45] ---
    You knew?
[14:59] ---
    Damn it!
[15:21] ---
    Okay. It's almost time.
[15:24] ---
    Proceed to the next phase!
[16:07] ---
    How should I even describe this?
[16:10] ---
    The body of the mysterious
    creature has appeared!
[16:37] ---
    I knew it... It really is the Skrugg.
[16:40] ---
    I won't let what happened to
    Center City happen again here.
[16:46] ---
    What now?
[17:02] ---
    That's...
[17:09] ---
    The sphere from...
[17:12] ---
    ...back then!
[17:14] ---
    Look at that!
[17:15] ---
    Everyone in the US should
    remember that nightmare!
[17:19] ---
    It's the sphere!
[17:21] ---
    The spheres that put
    humanity at its wit's end,
[17:24] ---
    have begun to move yet again!
[17:29] ---
    Look! The sphere has started to move!
[17:33] ---
    It's floating! It's floating like a balloon!
[17:36] ---
    The sphere that trampled all over
    America is flying in the air!
[17:41] ---
    Ooh, it's the yummy candy!
[17:51] ---
    Joey, can you hear me? Joey!
[17:53] ---
    Uh, yes!
[17:55] ---
    You've probably noticed this, but
    something has happened to the sphere!
[17:59] ---
    The indestructible sphere
    we couldn't analyze!
[18:03] ---
    Yes, I saw it.
[18:05] ---
    It's floating in the sky.
[18:07] ---
    It's not just that one, either.
[18:08] ---
    The same thing is happening with all
    its friends from around the world.
[18:16] ---
    All of them are heading
    straight for Washington D.C.
[18:22] ---
    It's obvious the Skrugg
    are planning something.
[18:26] ---
    Please hurry, Joey! You have to
    do something before it's too late!
[18:30] ---
    Please rescue the President!
[18:32] ---
    Right!
[18:37] ---
    I've got to hurry...
[18:50] ---
    Nothing surprises me anymore.
[18:53] ---
    Heroman...
[18:56] ---
    Attack!
[19:17] ---
    Now!
[19:26] ---
    Heroman!
[19:36] ---
    The NIA's power armor is awesome!
[19:42] ---
    Heroman...
[19:45] ---
    Magnecto!
[20:04] ---
    Heroman...
[20:07] ---
    Finish!
[20:49] ---
    Kogorr...
[20:53] ---
    But, how?
[21:00] ---
    The Skrugg!
[21:02] ---
    So you came, Hero?
[21:04] ---
    But it looks like you were a bit too late.
[21:07] ---
    This world will now end.
[21:09] ---
    It's time to resurrect our Lord, Kogorr!
[21:35] ---
    What the heck is that?
[21:41] ---
    That's... the Skrugg's...
[21:44] ---
    The Skrugg's true objective...
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    I know. There's only one thing for us to do.
[23:56] ---
    Let's go, Heroman, Will!
[23:59] ---
    Kogorr has been resurrected,
[24:01] ---
    and he's an extremely powerful opponent.
[24:03] ---
    Joey and Heroman place everything on the line,
    knowing this battle will decide everyone's fate.
[24:12] ---
    Next time on Heroman #25: Crisis.
[24:16] ---
    Heroman... Attack!

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:59] ---
    Kogorr!
[02:16] ---
    The mysterious plant-like creatures
[02:17] ---
    that appeared at the White House have
    shown their monstrous true form!
[02:39] ---
    Washington has issued an
    emergency evacuation order.
[02:44] ---
    And the well-being of the
    President and his staff
[02:47] ---
    who were in the White House before it
    was swallowed up is currently unknown.
[02:53] ---
    The Skrugg have reappeared,
    but I'm sure that Heroman...
[02:58] ---
    I mean, I'm sure that both
    of them will do something!
[03:07] ---
    It's the brat...
[03:10] ---
    You again?
[03:13] ---
    That's my line!
[03:20] ---
    You can try again, but
    it'll turn out the same!
[03:23] ---
    We'll stop you... as many times as it takes!
[03:28] ---
    Impossible.
[03:29] ---
    You fools can no longer stop me.
[03:33] ---
    Because this Earth is already well on
    its way towards being annihilated...
[03:43] ---
    Heroman!
[03:48] ---
    Will you attack?
[03:50] ---
    Then I will make you realize just how
    much more powerful I am than that time!
[04:01] ---
    We've entered the airspace
    of the bombing target!
[04:04] ---
    Code entered.
[04:05] ---
    Safeties disengaged.
[04:08] ---
    Can we really win with this?
[04:11] ---
    Keep it together.
[04:13] ---
    That kid's down there fighting
    his heart out, you know?
[04:16] ---
    We will accomplish our mission.
[04:22] ---
    Yeah...
[04:25] ---
    Prepare to drop the storm gathering bombs!
[04:35] ---
    Bombs away!
[04:51] ---
    Hey, what's with that?
[04:53] ---
    What's the point of bombing the sky?
[04:57] ---
    Did you forget?
[04:59] ---
    I told you, remember?
[05:00] ---
    They're making the energy that we're
    going to use to recharge Heroman.
[05:08] ---
    That?
[05:10] ---
    Those bombs have a special compound in them.
[05:14] ---
    This compound makes all the water vapor in
    the air gather together almost explosively!
[05:20] ---
    Pretty soon the entire sky will
    be covered with storm clouds.
[05:27] ---
    Lightning?
[05:29] ---
    Exactly!
[05:31] ---
    We'll get those clouds to produce lightning,
    and have it strike Heroman directly!
[05:37] ---
    If it works, he should be able to have plenty of
    energy to recover, just like the time he ran out.
[05:48] ---
    But wait...
[05:50] ---
    Is it possible to direct where
    lighting strikes like that?
[05:53] ---
    I overlook NOTHING!
[05:58] ---
    Generally speaking, lighting tries
    to avoid traveling through air.
[06:04] ---
    That's why it zig-zags as it falls
    and strikes the tallest buildings.
[06:09] ---
    We'll make use of that tendency!
[06:12] ---
    I've installed special equipment on the MR-1
[06:15] ---
    that can create an artificial
    vacuum in the vicinity of Heroman.
[06:21] ---
    If I do that, as it tries to avoid the air,
[06:24] ---
    the lighting will strike toward the
    invisible vacuum that acts like a lightning rod,
[06:28] ---
    and Heroman's charging up will be complete!
[06:33] ---
    So that's why we've got to hurry and
    get this thing near Heroman, then?
[06:42] ---
    Yes...
[06:43] ---
    As soon as possible.
[06:55] ---
    You are such a fool.
[06:58] ---
    Thinking you could oppose
    me, as weak as you are.
[07:03] ---
    You're too late.
[07:04] ---
    There is no one that can stop me now.
[07:11] ---
    If I make one false step, I'm done for.
[07:16] ---
    That's...
[07:22] ---
    Those are... the spheres!
[07:25] ---
    The spheres are heading toward Kogorr!
[07:52] ---
    The spheres...
[07:53] ---
    The spheres are turning into a liquid,
    and being absorbed by Kogorr!
[08:05] ---
    Mr. Hughes... What in the world is going on?
[08:09] ---
    It's probably...
[08:11] ---
    Well, our common wisdom is
    useless against the Skrugg.
[08:20] ---
    The spheres melted?
[08:22] ---
    Those spheres, that humanity
    couldn't even scratch?!
[08:26] ---
    Just like that?
[08:33] ---
    Watch where yer drivin', baldy!
[08:41] ---
    Hey, Professor!
[08:42] ---
    Look ahead!
[08:43] ---
    Watch out!
[08:45] ---
    Ahead?
[09:00] ---
    Phew...
[09:20] ---
    That was close...
[09:33] ---
    What in the world...
[09:35] ---
    I told you already.
[09:37] ---
    I will devour this world.
[09:40] ---
    Everything I consume will
    become my sustenance.
[09:45] ---
    And they are no exception!
[09:58] ---
    Lord Kogorr, what are you...
[10:01] ---
    Hey, wait...
[10:05] ---
    He's eating his ally?
[10:13] ---
    Everything will become my food!
[10:38] ---
    This isn't good...
[10:39] ---
    Let's move a bit farther away!
[10:40] ---
    We can't!
[10:41] ---
    This is a crucial moment!
[10:43] ---
    Is this the time to worry about that?
[10:45] ---
    If we're shot down, that's it!
[10:48] ---
    But...
[10:50] ---
    Don't worry.
[10:52] ---
    We'll keep filming.
[10:55] ---
    We should just get some altitude, and then...
[10:58] ---
    Understood!
[10:59] ---
    Guess that's for the best!
[11:14] ---
    At this rate...
[11:19] ---
    That's...
[11:26] ---
    Will!
[11:39] ---
    Will!
[11:53] ---
    Heroman!
[12:47] ---
    Heroman...
[12:52] ---
    Is everyone okay?
[12:54] ---
    Yeah...
[12:55] ---
    Somehow...
[12:57] ---
    Thank goodness.
[12:59] ---
    Don't be so relieved.
[13:01] ---
    What're we supposed to do now?
[13:03] ---
    We fell pretty far...
[13:09] ---
    How are the preparations?
[13:10] ---
    We can go any time.
[13:12] ---
    Okay, head out.
[13:13] ---
    Yes, sir.
[13:18] ---
    Why are you heading to the scene now?
[13:20] ---
    I can give orders more quickly observing
    the situation on the ground myself.
[13:24] ---
    I can't do that from the cargo plane.
[13:26] ---
    Then why not use a helicopter?
[13:28] ---
    The enemy has complete
    control of the airspace.
[13:31] ---
    There's a great chance that we'd
    be shot down if we got too close.
[13:35] ---
    In the end, Mr. Denton's
    plan seemed to be the best.
[13:42] ---
    I'm sorry about getting you involved
    in something this dangerous.
[13:46] ---
    I-I don't really mind.
[13:49] ---
    I know.
[13:50] ---
    But they're fighting in an
    even more dangerous situation.
[13:56] ---
    I couldn't just sit there doing nothing.
[14:09] ---
    Will!
[14:11] ---
    Will, answer me!
[14:21] ---
    Are you okay?
[14:26] ---
    I didn't ask for your help.
[14:31] ---
    Get away from here, Will.
[14:33] ---
    We'll handle this.
[14:34] ---
    Not a chance!
[14:36] ---
    Will?
[14:38] ---
    I have no reason to follow your orders.
[14:41] ---
    I...
[14:43] ---
    I came here for my own fight!
[14:47] ---
    Will...
[14:48] ---
    Don't misunderstand me!
[14:49] ---
    I'm not your ally or anything!
[14:53] ---
    But...
[14:54] ---
    Even so, we have the same goal.
[15:01] ---
    Ironic, isn't it?
[15:04] ---
    This weapon caused Heroman so much
    trouble, and now it's going to help him?
[15:07] ---
    Hate to say it, but we
    really owe Dr. Minami one.
[15:12] ---
    That's the way!
[15:14] ---
    Nice and slow!
[15:15] ---
    Slowly!
[15:20] ---
    Hurry! It's about to break!
[15:22] ---
    No!
[15:23] ---
    It'll be even more dangerous
    to pull up too quickly!
[15:27] ---
    So take it slow!
[15:28] ---
    But hurry!
[15:29] ---
    Make up your damn mind!
[15:31] ---
    Hurry!
[15:31] ---
    Slowly!
[15:34] ---
    ...says them.
[15:35] ---
    Don't worry.
[15:37] ---
    This speed will do, according
    to my calculations.
[15:52] ---
    Professor!
[15:54] ---
    Let's do this thing!
[16:12] ---
    Excellent.
[16:14] ---
    No, don't look at me.
[16:17] ---
    That's just the amazing
    potential the MR-1 possesses.
[16:20] ---
    With it, we're going to save
    Joey and Heroman, for sure!
[16:34] ---
    Do you understand?
[16:37] ---
    Our target is the crystal on Kogorr's chest!
[16:41] ---
    I realized it after my body became like this.
[16:43] ---
    That's the weak point for all the Skrugg!
[16:47] ---
    If we can destroy that
    crystal, we can end it all!
[16:51] ---
    Heroman.
[16:54] ---
    Will.
[16:58] ---
    Let's go!
[17:06] ---
    You bastards...
[17:08] ---
    You're mine!
[17:12] ---
    Look at that!
[17:14] ---
    What's going on?
[17:17] ---
    Go back! On the double!
[17:20] ---
    Get the shot!
[17:26] ---
    Somehow...
[17:27] ---
    Somehow I have to get up there...
[18:19] ---
    Then how about this?
[18:38] ---
    Heroman!
[19:02] ---
    What?!
[19:12] ---
    You impudent little...
[19:14] ---
    Take this!
[19:23] ---
    That's not all!
[19:30] ---
    Heroman!
[19:32] ---
    Go!
[19:58] ---
    Fool.
[20:00] ---
    I've already predicted your every move!
[20:03] ---
    Oh, I wonder about that.
[20:11] ---
    Heroman...
[20:14] ---
    Augment!
[20:18] ---
    What?
[20:33] ---
    Finish him, Joey!
[20:35] ---
    Heroman...
[20:39] ---
    Blast!
[20:49] ---
    I don't think so!
[21:15] ---
    All right!
[21:21] ---
    Too bad.
[21:24] ---
    That's not where my weak point is!
[22:07] ---
    Heroman!!!
[22:29] [SONG] ---
    I want to get to know you better,
[22:32] [SONG] ---
    to go at each other with our true feelings.
[22:35] [SONG] ---
    Your tears and smile are both here.
[22:42] [SONG] ---
    No matter how hard it is, I won't be scared any more.
[22:46] [SONG] ---
    With both of us, we can go anywhere.
[22:49] [SONG] ---
    Since you're the one who taught me that I'm not alone.
[22:54] [SONG] ---
    Every time I mutter the words "I was born to meet you"
[23:03] [SONG] ---
    my unease disappears, and my heart burns stronger.
[23:07] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:14] [SONG] ---
    Carve out this irreplaceable time!
[23:20] [SONG] ---
    I can't move away from here.
[23:23] [SONG] ---
    Because I live feeling the same heartbeat.
[23:28] [SONG] ---
    I want to protect you to the very last,
[23:30] [SONG] ---
    to protect the promise built up.
[23:33] [SONG] ---
    Thank you. We'll go on together with a sign only we understand.
[23:40] [SONG] ---
    We are carving out this irreplaceable time!
[23:50] ---
    On the next Heroman:
[23:52] ---
    Heroman!
[23:53] ---
    It can't be!
[23:54] ---
    Answer me!
[23:55] ---
    Say something!
[23:57] ---
    I'm begging you!
[23:58] ---
    Kogorr continues to evolve
    to his complete form,
[24:01] ---
    and Heroman has fallen silent
    after being attacked.
[24:04] ---
    While the countdown to Earth's destruction
    begins, Joey makes his decision.
[24:09] ---
    The final battle heads toward its climax.
[24:13] ---
    Next time on Heroman #26: Faith.
[24:16] ---

[00:05] [SONG] ---
    I tried coming alone to our usual park.
[00:13] [SONG] ---
    It's a feeling I've never felt.
[00:16] [SONG] ---
    Like a child, frightened by the sound of the wind
[00:21] [SONG] ---
    I ran back along the path home.
[00:27] [SONG] ---
    The sky outside the window is too vast. Where are you now?
[00:34] [SONG] ---
    Please, may this reach you...
[00:38] [SONG] ---
    Dear Lord, if you ever grant wishes,
[00:44] [SONG] ---
    grant my wish right now, please!
[00:50] [SONG] ---
    I want to hear your voice, I miss you! I want to see you now!
[00:56] [SONG] ---
    Why must you already be looking toward tomorrow?
[01:00] [SONG] ---
    Don't just brush it off, saying the time has slipped by.
[01:06] [SONG] ---
    Once more...
[01:08] [SONG] ---
    I love you, and yet it's been too late since long ago.
[01:14] [SONG] ---
    Even if I give up, it can't be like the past.
[01:19] [SONG] ---
    Don't just decide so simply there's no way, no choice.
[01:24] [SONG] ---
    Smile once more.
[01:32] ---
    Looks like I win.
[01:41] ---
    Heroman!
[01:43] ---
    The only thing that caused
    me pause is now gone.
[01:47] ---
    All that's left is to devour this planet!
[01:58] ---
    Is this gonna work out all right?
[02:01] ---
    Heroman...
[02:03] ---
    ...lost.
[02:05] ---
    Heroman!
[02:07] ---
    Heroman!
[02:08] ---
    You can't!
[02:10] ---
    This can't be, right, Heroman?
[02:24] ---
    Ooh, that's a nice look in your eyes...
[02:27] ---
    I'll let you savor all the
    humiliation I faced...
[02:32] ---
    Now, die.
[02:34] ---
    Joey!
[02:39] ---
    Worry not.
[02:41] ---
    This dinky little planet you tried
    to protect will be finished soon!
[03:13] ---
    Joey!
[03:15] ---
    Answer me, Joey!
[03:16] ---
    Joey!
[03:21] ---
    What's that?
[03:29] ---
    Joey and Heroman have...
[03:32] ---
    I'm sorry, but we're suspending
    the plan to rescue the President.
[03:36] ---
    Without knowing if Joey
    and Heroman are alive,
[03:39] ---
    it's impossible to tell
    if the plan can proceed.
[03:42] ---
    NIA is now under the command
    of the Vice President.
[03:46] ---
    Also, Kogorr is drilling
    something into the ground.
[03:51] ---
    It seems like he's sucking up an enormous
    amount of energy from the mantel.
[03:55] ---
    It's quite possible that a great
    disaster will befall this planet
[03:59] ---
    in the next few hours if nothing is done.
[04:01] ---
    What?!
[04:03] ---
    Every country in the world is
    now under a state of emergency,
[04:07] ---
    and at a special meeting of world leaders,
    an emergency measure has been proposed.
[04:11] ---
    In the worst case, if it's agreed upon...
[04:15] ---
    Washington D.C. and the Skrugg base along
    with it will be razed to the ground!
[04:23] ---
    But...
[04:25] ---
    I want you to get as far away from Kogorr,
    or rather Washington D.C., as you can.
[04:34] ---
    No way!
[04:34] ---
    Hell no!
[04:34] ---
    As if!
[04:35] ---
    Joey ain't that weak!
[04:38] ---
    I didn't give him permission
    to get beat by that guy!
[04:41] ---
    They're fine, I'm sure of it!
[04:42] ---
    Both Joey and Heroman!
[04:44] ---
    Right?
[04:44] ---
    Right?
[04:44] ---
    Right?
[04:47] ---
    Of course.
[04:49] ---
    As long as they are still well,
    we will not stop the operation!
[04:55] ---
    Are you insane?!
[04:56] ---
    If this doesn't work, you guys are done for!
[05:00] ---
    I believe in them, no matter what.
[05:02] ---
    So do I.
[05:03] ---
    Of course!
[05:05] ---
    Everyone...
[05:09] ---
    Understood.
[05:10] ---
    I will continue to provide backup.
[05:12] ---
    Over and out.
[05:18] ---
    Now, let's go! To Joey!
[05:23] ---
    Are you sure?
[05:25] ---
    I have no wish to force you.
[05:28] ---
    This is my own personal decision.
[05:32] ---
    I can't trust in him completely yet.
[05:36] ---
    But, I believe in you.
[05:39] ---
    Yeah.
[05:41] ---
    Thank you.
[05:48] ---
    Pitiful bugs!
[05:50] ---
    This planet's energy will
    all become my sustenance!
[05:54] ---
    I shall once again take to the skies!
[05:59] ---
    You and this planet should all be destroyed!
[06:06] ---
    Did he just say...
[06:08] ---
    The Skrugg have announced
    the end of the world!
[06:11] ---
    What will happen to the White House...
    or rather, to all of humanity?!
[06:16] ---
    The military's arrived, not that it'll help.
[06:20] ---
    We're really gonna get caught up in it now...
[06:23] ---
    We should get out of here!
[06:25] ---
    But...
[06:26] ---
    We're almost out of fuel!
[06:27] ---
    Go!
[06:39] ---
    Why didn't you run away?
[06:41] ---
    I wanted to be like my dad.
[06:44] ---
    To be a hero that saved everyone.
[06:46] ---
    But I wasn't able to.
[06:49] ---
    Joey!
[06:52] ---
    Joey!
[06:54] ---
    Joey!
[06:55] ---
    Joey!
[06:59] ---
    Finally awake, damn you...
[07:03] ---
    Will!
[07:06] ---
    Did you...
[07:07] ---
    Don't misunderstand me.
[07:10] ---
    This is because I owed you one.
[07:14] ---
    He came to Earth in order
    to devour the planet itself.
[07:20] ---
    With no one left to stop him, once the meal
    is done he'll break the plate and say so long.
[07:26] ---
    When that saucer is completed,
    this planet is through!
[07:31] ---
    What... did you say?
[07:35] ---
    Annoyingly, you're the only one with any
    chance left to do something in this situation.
[07:41] ---
    B-But Heroman is...
[07:46] ---
    So I'm...
[07:48] ---
    Don't be so weak!
[07:50] ---
    Your dad never gave up, right?
[08:03] ---
    Will!
[08:09] ---
    Target locked!
[08:11] ---
    Aim for the upper part of the target!
[08:23] ---
    Fools.
[08:32] ---
    That's right!
[08:33] ---
    If you head to the right, even
    the MR-1 can pass through.
[08:35] ---
    You can't go straight,
    there's a giant sinkhole!
[08:38] ---
    If we keep going this way, we'll have no
    choice but to get caught up in the battle.
[08:41] ---
    If it's ineffective they'll
    call it off quickly.
[08:43] ---
    Just a little further.
[08:45] ---
    Howard, how you located Joey yet?
[08:48] ---
    I apologize.
[08:49] ---
    I've run every kind of scan, but there's
    so much destruction everywhere...
[08:55] ---
    Not so easy, is it?
[08:56] ---
    No...
[08:57] ---
    But, even if he is okay,
    there's no longer any way...
[09:03] ---
    There is a way.
[09:06] ---
    Joey?
[09:09] ---
    Thank goodness...
[09:11] ---
    Mr. Hughes... That ball of
    light that Kogorr is holding...
[09:15] ---
    Yes.
[09:16] ---
    It's sucking up the energy
    from the Earth's nucleus.
[09:19] ---
    As I thought.
[09:21] ---
    The military's attacks are
    just a drop in the bucket.
[09:24] ---
    If it comes to it, I'm being
    told that ballistic missiles
[09:27] ---
    are being aimed at Washington
    D.C. by the world leaders...
[09:30] ---
    That probably won't work.
[09:32] ---
    Yeah...
[09:33] ---
    Our weapons don't work
    against the Skrugg at all.
[09:37] ---
    Joey, don't move from there.
[09:39] ---
    I'll come pick you up right away.
[09:41] ---
    No. Please retreat, Mr. Hughes.
[09:43] ---
    What?!
[09:45] ---
    I will destroy that ball of
    light, and Kogorr along with it.
[09:48] ---
    What are you saying?
[09:50] ---
    Heroman is already...
[09:53] ---
    Mr. Hughes...
[09:55] ---
    I've decided I will no
    longer have any doubts.
[09:59] ---
    So...
[10:01] ---
    Joey?
[10:03] ---
    I can feel it.
[10:04] ---
    This is my own power.
[10:07] ---
    If I can blast this power
    inside of that light...
[10:11] ---
    I'll destroy it for sure.
[10:12] ---
    Joey, what are you thinking?
[10:14] ---
    Answer me, Joey!
[10:16] ---
    If it will protect everyone's future,
[10:21] ---
    I'll get it done, no matter what.
[10:24] ---
    Like my dad!
[10:26] ---
    Joey!
[10:27] ---
    Wait, Joey!
[10:40] ---
    What did you say?
[10:42] ---
    I'm sure of it!
[10:43] ---
    Joey is going on a suicide attack!
[10:45] ---
    That's...
[10:46] ---
    He cut off communications.
[10:48] ---
    You're the closest people to him!
[10:51] ---
    Please! Stop Joey!
[10:56] ---
    Holly!
[11:00] ---
    Hey, what are you going to do?
[11:07] ---
    You guys catch up!
[11:16] ---
    You're...
[11:17] ---
    We're going together.
[11:24] ---
    Don't blame me if you bite your tongue.
[11:29] ---
    Holly!
[11:32] ---
    Take it!
[11:35] ---
    I think you actually got
    a tiny bit cool there!
[11:44] ---
    Joey...
[11:50] ---
    Oh, crap!
[11:51] ---
    Let's get out of here!
[11:56] ---
    Don't!
[12:01] ---
    Why didn't you run away?
[12:04] ---
    I wanted to be like my dad.
[12:07] ---
    To be a hero that saved everyone.
[12:10] ---
    But I wasn't able to back then.
[12:14] ---
    How impudent of you...
[12:15] ---
    You're still alive?
[12:26] ---
    What?
[12:39] ---
    So, this time...
[12:52] ---
    So, this time...!
[12:58] ---
    Joey!
[13:09] ---
    So, this time I'm going to...!
[13:22] ---
    I'm going to...
[13:26] ---
    ...protect everyone!
[13:35] ---
    Farewell.
[13:50] ---
    Heroman?
[14:05] ---
    Heroman!
[14:07] ---
    Why?
[14:09] ---
    You're still alive, too?
[14:11] ---
    Why won't you stay dead?!
[14:13] ---
    It's already nearly too late to stop me!
[14:16] ---
    Just stand there and gaze at the
    moment your world is destroyed!
[14:32] ---
    Joey!
[14:44] ---
    It can't be...
[14:45] ---
    Joey!
[14:47] ---
    Please, stop this!
[14:50] ---
    You shouldn't have to sacrifice yourself!
[14:53] ---
    Lina, why are you...
[14:55] ---
    I came here to smack you one
    for trying something so stupid!
[15:01] ---
    Sis... What are you talking about?
[15:04] ---
    If I don't the entire planet will be
    destroyed and everyone along with it.
[15:08] ---
    Unless I do it...
[15:11] ---
    I have to...
[15:13] ---
    Even if you save everyone by doing that...
[15:15] ---
    Living in a world without you, Joey,
    wouldn't make me happy one bit!
[15:23] ---
    Don't you get it yet?
[15:25] ---
    Our old man worked so hard for our sakes!
[15:28] ---
    It's because we, his family,
    were there for him!
[15:30] ---
    That's why he tried to come home alive!
[15:33] ---
    Thank you.
[15:35] ---
    You're the reason I get up everyday!
[15:39] ---
    Joey, do you remember the first day we met?
[15:46] ---
    Maybe you've already forgotten.
[15:49] ---
    But, I remember it clearly!
[15:52] ---
    You protected me.
[15:58] ---
    I remember.
[16:00] ---
    I wasn't able to protect you, Lina.
[16:04] ---
    It was my sister who saved you.
[16:11] ---
    That's not true.
[16:13] ---
    I was so glad...
[16:16] ---
    Back then, all my friends ran away.
[16:19] ---
    They left me behind alone.
[16:22] ---
    When you stayed by my side, Joey...
[16:26] ---
    It made me so happy!
[16:30] ---
    I want to be together with you forever, Joey!
[16:35] ---
    Lina...
[16:37] ---
    Same for us!
[16:46] ---
    Psy!
[16:47] ---
    Professor Denton!
[16:49] ---
    What's with that face?
[16:51] ---
    We're your partners, right?
[16:53] ---
    And when the heroes are in trouble, it's
    their partners who should save them, right?
[16:58] ---
    Hero...es?
[17:00] ---
    That's right.
[17:03] ---
    There's more than one hero.
[17:05] ---
    You can't be a hero all by yourself.
[17:09] ---
    You've got Heroman, Joey.
[17:12] ---
    And it's because you have Heroman and
    your friends that you can be a hero.
[17:17] ---
    That's exactly why you're heroes!
[17:28] ---
    I see...
[17:32] ---
    So that's how it is...
[17:44] ---
    Now, let's start!
[17:53] ---
    Heroman, I'm sorry.
[17:58] ---
    I was about to leave you all alone.
[18:04] ---
    We're going to be together forever.
[18:07] ---
    So...
[18:10] ---
    We're going to grab our future, together!
[18:24] ---
    Our country is fully prepared!
[18:28] ---
    I'm willing to force it even without
    a decision from the United States!
[18:31] ---
    Just give up on Washington D.C. already!
[18:34] ---
    But, we still don't know the
    status of the President...
[18:37] ---
    Are you saying the White House is more
    important than the entire planet?
[18:41] ---
    Vice President!
[18:42] ---
    The Skrugg's bore has entered the nucleus!
[18:45] ---
    So, it's finally come to this...
[18:47] ---
    The President must be...
[18:51] ---
    Please, wait!
[18:52] ---
    Hughes!
[18:53] ---
    Please postpone the missile launches!
[18:56] ---
    What is it?
[18:58] ---
    Our heroes have appeared.
[19:01] ---
    It is time for me to depart!
[19:04] ---
    It is time for this planet to end!
[19:08] ---
    No, we won't let you end it.
[19:11] ---
    What?
[19:24] ---
    We've always fought together!
[19:28] ---
    No matter what's happened, we've gotten
    help from everyone to overcome it!
[19:34] ---
    Damn you!
[19:36] ---
    It's you two, again!
[19:42] ---
    So we won't give up!
[19:44] ---
    No matter what the circumstances!
[19:49] ---
    That's how we've fought our way here!
[19:57] ---
    Impossible!
[19:59] ---
    Heroman... Go!
[20:10] ---
    A true hero isn't going to make anyone sad.
[20:14] ---
    That's what you, and everyone taught me.
[20:18] ---
    I'm not going to choose who to save!
[20:20] ---
    I've got to save ourselves... and everyone!
[20:32] ---
    This time I'll finish you!
[20:36] ---
    Joey!
[20:37] ---
    Joey!
[20:38] ---
    Joey!
[20:39] ---
    Joey!
[20:40] ---
    Joey!!!
[20:45] ---
    Heroman...
[20:49] ---
    O Spark!
[21:50] ---
    Somehow I feel like I understand something.
[21:54] ---
    What?
[21:55] ---
    The reason why you met Heroman.
[21:58] ---
    When the Skrugg set their
    eyes on this planet,
[22:02] ---
    the great will of this planet chose you, who
    wanted to be a hero, and gave birth to Heroman.
[22:09] ---
    Which means you were fated to meet!
[22:14] ---
    Professor, aren't you supposed
    to be some sort of scientist?
[22:17] ---
    He seems like the usual Professor to me!
[22:29] ---
    Sis.
[22:32] ---
    You keep this, Sis.
[22:37] ---
    I want you to have it.
[23:42] ---
    Excellent work, people.
