[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!
[24:18] ---
