[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!
[24:18] ---
