SIGN    (The Present)
[01:32] ---
    The planet Keron, not quite a long time ago.
SIGN    (Not Quite a Long Time Ago)
[01:36] ---
    There, formidable frog-type aliens
    made plans to invade Earth.
[01:41] ---
    They assembled a huge invasion force
[01:44] ---
    and sent them towards our planet in
    a gigantic alien carrier, Grand Star.
[01:48] ---
    This is a tale of Sergeant Keroro before
    he met Fuyuki-kun and the others,
[01:53] ---
    and takes place during the
    Keroro Platoon's journey to Earth.
[02:03] ---
    Kero Zero: My Homeland is Pekopon, Sir!
[02:12] ---
    So this is the yearbook you all wrote in!
[02:15] ---
    As my dream for the future,
[02:16] ---
    I wrote that I wanted to be a proper assassin.
[02:20] ---
    So, Corporal Giroro, you wanted to be a
    proper soldier like your brother, huh?
[02:25] ---
    Don't just read it!
[02:26] ---
    What did you write, Mr. Sergeant?
[02:29] ---
    Huh? Me?
[02:30] ---
    I wrote...
[02:32] ---
    Butt firecracker!
[02:36] ---
    Butt firecra—
[02:38] ---
    Oh?
[02:39] ---
    Lady Kiko! Please stop that, ma'am!
[02:42] ---
    Hmm, let's see here...
[02:44] ---
    "I want to become a singing,
     dancing invader."
[02:49] ---
    This is...
[02:51] ---
    Yearbooks, huh?
[02:54] ---
    What kind of invader is that?
[02:56] ---
    I don't believe invaders have
    any need for singing or dancing.
[03:00] ---
    You know what Nobibi would write, though?
[03:03] ---
    "I wanna be the second-best
    invader in the universe!"
[03:06] ---
    Wh-Why second-best?
[03:08] ---
    I mean, when you become top,
    there's nowhere left to go. That's boring!
[03:12] ---
    Oh...
[03:14] ---
    This Nobibi seems to have been
    quite the reliable fellow.
[03:18] ---
    So? Lady Kiko, what did you write
    as your dream for the future?
[03:23] ---
    There were yearbooks
    on Pekopon, too, right?
[03:27] ---
    Yes. As for me...
[03:31] ---
    Gero?
[03:32] ---
    Wh-What?!
[03:46] ---
    I'm the strongest and most horrible
    member of the Viper family!
[03:51] ---
    I'll sink you into deep space!
[03:54] ---
    Fire!
[04:05] ---
    Automatic attack system engaged.
[04:07] ---
    Automatic attack system engaged.
[04:08] ---
    Entering attack mode.
[04:19] ---
    Damage to bridge 129.
[04:21] ---
    Hangar 3,873 is on fire.
[04:25] ---
    Uh, isn't this actually pretty bad?
[04:27] ---
    Darn it!
[04:28] ---
    Fine!
[04:31] ---
    In that case...
SIGN    Howl!! Koredenite
[04:35] ---
    ...it's time for Koredenite ore,
    making real whatever you draw!
[04:47] ---
    Perfect detail!
[04:48] ---
    Launch mega mega cool
    super battle mechs!
[05:05] ---
    What is that?
[05:07] ---
    Take it down!
[05:13] ---
    Evade!
[05:23] ---
    Wh-What?!
[05:25] ---
    Forwards, backwards, up, down, left, right,
    my army is occupying every last bit of space.
[05:30] ---
    How can we possibly be outnumbered?!
[05:32] ---
    Direct hit, incoming!
[05:33] ---
    What?!
[05:43] ---
    N-Noooo!
[05:45] ---
    Now entering warp navigation.
[05:48] ---
    Keron Drive standby.
[05:50] ---
    W-We're suddenly warping?
[05:53] ---
    Fleeing is the correct move in this case.
[05:55] ---
    Or, like, taking proper measures.
[06:02] ---
    Dammit...
[06:04] ---
    You ain't gettin' away!
[06:06] ---
    You ain't gettin' away!
[06:08] ---
    You ain't gettin' away!!
[06:12] ---
    I'm not letting you get away...
[06:15] ---
    What was that?!
[06:19] ---
    No waaaaay!
[06:24] ---
    Darn it! I'll remember this!
[06:33] ---
    Emergency.
[06:34] ---
    Emergency.
[06:37] ---
    What in blazes is going on?
[06:40] ---
    The dimensional navigation system
    appears to have been destroyed.
[06:45] ---
    At this rate,
[06:46] ---
    we will be crushed by warp space's
    internal gravity and torn to pieces.
[06:53] ---
    Gero!
[06:54] ---
    Then hurry up and fix it!
[06:56] ---
    That's impossible.
[06:57] ---
    Why?!
[06:58] ---
    The access corridor has been destroyed,
[07:00] ---
    and we cannot get to the main
    engine room where the system is.
[07:04] ---
    If that's the problem, then leave it to me!
[07:21] ---
    This is awesome!
[07:23] ---
    Okay, let's gooooo to the engine room!
[07:25] ---
    A-As you say.
[07:28] ---
    Go on, pile in!
[07:33] ---
    Gero!
[07:40] ---
    Owowowow...
[07:42] ---
    Gero?
[07:45] ---
    This is the main engine?
[07:52] ---
    Huh? What is that?
[07:54] ---
    Those are wormholes.
[07:56] ---
    Must've come about from the impact that
    borked the dimensional navigation system.
[08:00] ---
    This ain't good.
[08:01] ---
    What's going to happen?
[08:03] ---
    Left unchecked,
[08:05] ---
    they'll keep on multiplying,
[08:07] ---
    and swallow the Grand Star whole.
[08:10] ---
    We must repair it before that happens!
[08:14] ---
    The spare dimensional unit is inside there.
[08:17] ---
    Exchange it immediately!
[08:19] ---
    Okay!
[08:20] ---
    Let's go.
[08:26] ---
    I ain't gonna let you repair it!
[08:29] ---
    You shot me up real nice back there.
[08:31] ---
    I'm takin' you all to hell with me!
[08:34] ---
    Darn it!
[08:35] ---
    Ah! Behind you!
[08:36] ---
    Uh? Behind me?
[08:39] ---
    Butt firecracker!
[08:41] ---
    Wh-What in the world?!
[08:55] ---
    Great job, sir!
[08:57] ---
    But...
[08:58] ---
    With the spare unit like that...
[09:00] ---
    Gero...
[09:02] ---
    To exchange the broken unit,
[09:05] ---
    we must acquire another from somewhere.
[09:09] ---
    Hey, where do these wormholes lead?
[09:13] ---
    Private 2nd Class Tamama,
    please approach the wormhole.
[09:16] ---
    R-Roger...
[09:22] ---
    It appears to be Pekopon in the past.
[09:27] ---
    This timepoint is...
[09:29] ---
    Any Keronian spaceship would have
    spare parts on board, right?
[09:34] ---
    In that case, during this period,
[09:35] ---
    there should be a research ship
    at this place on Earth.
[09:39] ---
    Why don't we bring the
    spare parts from there?
[09:42] ---
    Ummm...
[09:44] ---
    Ah! You are correct. On this date,
    a research ship was on Pekopon!
[09:50] ---
    How do you know something like that?
[09:53] ---
    Who cares about that?
[09:56] ---
    You know what Nobibi would
    say in a time like this?
[09:58] ---
    What's important isn't to ask why!
[10:01] ---
    It is to take action!
[10:03] ---
    Sergeant Major Kiko Katoyama
    is indeed correct.
[10:06] ---
    If you pass through the wormhole,
[10:07] ---
    and bring back the spare
    dimensional unit from the research craft,
[10:11] ---
    Grand Star will be saved.
[10:16] ---
    So...
[10:17] ---
    Why are we the ones who have to go?!
[10:20] ---
    It is an important mission with the
    fate of the Grand Star in the balance.
[10:23] ---
    Please feel honored to accept.
[10:25] ---
    Then you come, too!
[10:27] ---
    Never mind. We have no time.
[10:29] ---
    Gero...!
[10:30] ---
    Now! Let us go!
[10:44] ---
    No!
[10:48] ---
    Owowowow...
[10:50] ---
    Gero?
SIGN    Well Space
[11:03] ---
    This is... Pekopon...
[11:06] ---
    So this is the Keroro Platoon's
    history-making first step on Pekopon, sir!
[11:10] ---
    Well, then...
[11:12] ---
    Gero!
[11:13] ---
    Wh-What is that?!
[11:17] ---
    It is a creature called a frog.
[11:19] ---
    Gero...?
SIGN    Gero gero gero gero gero...
[11:24] ---
    I-It's resonating...
[11:27] ---
    You are too cheeky for a frog!
[11:29] ---
    Tamama Impact!
[11:31] ---
    Gero?
[11:32] ---
    Gero!
[11:41] ---
    Mr. Sergeant, I am sorry!
[11:44] ---
    Your anti-barrier broke!
[11:48] ---
    Sh! Someone's coming!
[11:54] ---
    Gero!
[11:55] ---
    Crap. I have to hide somewhere!
[11:57] ---
    Somewherrre...!
[12:04] ---
    Gero!
SIGN    Scarecrow Disguise
[12:12] ---
    I can't breathe, sir!
SIGN    Transparent View
[12:27] ---
    I-It's heavy...
[12:28] ---
    It is a Pekoponian in the flesh.
[12:37] ---
    Kiko?!
[12:41] ---
    I see.
[12:42] ---
    This just got interesting.
[12:53] ---
    ...Kiko?!
[12:55] ---
    Commander, that's Kiko from the past.
[12:58] ---
    Careful now...
[12:59] ---
    Don't let her know who you are.
[13:00] ---
    You'll create a time paradox.
[13:02] ---
    Time paradox?
[13:04] ---
    We first met Kiko on the Grand Star.
[13:07] ---
    If you meet her here, the past will change.
[13:10] ---
    Gero!
[13:19] ---
    I thought I... just heard a voice here...
[13:21] ---
    Y-Yes!
[13:23] ---
    I am a scarecrow, ma'am!
[13:24] ---
    Scarescare!
[13:25] ---
    I-It talked!
[13:27] ---
    Oops.
[13:29] ---
    Could you be...
[13:31] ---
    Erk!
[13:32] ---
    ...a scarecrow fairy?!
[13:35] ---
    Y-Yes!
[13:36] ---
    I am a scarecwow faiwy!
[13:38] ---
    That's why I can talk, ma'am!
[13:40] ---
    Scarescare!
[13:44] ---
    Hey, scarecrow fairy!
[13:46] ---
    Did you see a spaceship
    come down just ahead of here?
[13:49] ---
    Gero?
[13:49] ---
    I saw it from school at lunch. It came
    down on the other side of the mountains!
[13:53] ---
    Could that be the Keron Army research ship?
[13:56] ---
    Most likely.
[13:58] ---
    What do we do?
[13:59] ---
    Leave this to me, sir.
[14:02] ---
    Ah, I saw that! It's about 3 km
    in that diwection, ma'am, scarescare!
[14:07] ---
    What?! No way, seriously?!
[14:09] ---
    I can take you there if you want, ma'am.
[14:12] ---
    You can?! Yes!
[14:15] ---
    Hey, Keroro!
[14:16] ---
    This is perfect, sir.
[14:18] ---
    We'll get her to take us
    to the research ship, sir.
[14:21] ---
    Are you sure this will be okay?
[14:26] ---
    You're kind of heavy.
[14:29] ---
    But I'm so looking forward to this!
[14:30] ---
    I wonder what kind of spaceship it'll be...
[14:32] ---
    Hey, Keroro...
[14:34] ---
    Isn't Kiko about to be captured
    by the Keron Army?
[14:38] ---
    Then isn't it better to let her escape?
[14:41] ---
    Don't do anything out of the plan!
[14:44] ---
    Keep going as you are.
[14:45] ---
    Don't stop her, whatever you do.
[14:47] ---
    Straight from the horse's mouth.
[14:52] ---
    But what business did the
    past Kiko have with a spaceship?
[14:55] ---
    Because she's a mech designer?
[14:57] ---
    Hm? What about a mech designer?
[14:59] ---
    Ah, uh, it is your job, Lady Kiko.
[15:02] ---
    My job? I'm a high-schooler, you know!
[15:05] ---
    Though I graduated today.
[15:07] ---
    Gwaduated?
[15:09] ---
    Yep. I had my graduation ceremony today.
[15:13] ---
    But, you know,
[15:14] ---
    I do like drawing mechs.
[15:16] ---
    Ah, I know!
[15:18] ---
    Look at this!
[15:24] ---
    They are so good!
[15:26] ---
    Whoa...
[15:27] ---
    So you are a mech designer?
[15:29] ---
    They're just random scribbles.
[15:31] ---
    But that might be fun if I really
    could become one. A mech designer.
[15:36] ---
    I'm sure you can, ma'am!
[15:38] ---
    Even my dweam came twue!
     I became a singing, dancing invader!
[15:42] ---
    A singing, dancing invader?
[15:44] ---
    Ahhh, no,
[15:46] ---
    I mean a singing, dancing
    scarecwow, ma'am, scarescare!
[15:51] ---
    I see...
[15:52] ---
    It's nice to have something you want to be.
[15:55] ---
    I haven't decided on a course or career
    or anything further ahead than tomorrow.
[16:02] ---
    Every day was so boring.
[16:05] ---
    I couldn't bear it if those boring days
    just kept on going even after graduation.
[16:10] ---
    That would be horrible.
[16:12] ---
    So I...
[16:15] ---
    I'm going in search of interesting things!
[16:25] ---
    Where is this place?
[16:29] ---
    That's...
[16:34] ---
    It really was a spaceship!
[16:46] ---
    Ah, Lady Kiko, wait for me, pwease!
[16:49] ---
    The ceiling is surprisingly low...
[16:53] ---
    Maybe they're little aliens?
[16:55] ---
    Hey, Keroro! What are we going to do?
[16:57] ---
    It can't be helped, sir.
[16:59] ---
    As for us, we should find the spare
    dimensional unit, I guess, sir.
[17:11] ---
    Oy. Are you sure this is how you want it?
[17:22] ---
    How dare you do that to me?
[17:24] ---
    You're gonna pay.
[17:30] ---
    What's this?
[17:30] ---
    Where is it, sir?
[17:33] ---
    Umm, how many dimensional units
    are we supposed to get?
[17:37] ---
    Just the one will do.
[17:39] ---
    Well, taking spares for the spare into
    consideration, two or three is probably enough.
[17:44] ---
    Okay.
[17:45] ---
    Ugh.
[17:46] ---
    Tidy up a little!
[17:52] ---
    Oof!
[17:53] ---
    Oof! Oof!
[17:54] ---
    I cannot find it!
[17:56] ---
    Found one!
[17:57] ---
    I found one, too.
[17:59] ---
    I... got one, too, sir!
[18:01] ---
    Whaa?!
[18:02] ---
    That's a... missile launcher!
[18:13] ---
    Did you do that on purpose?!
[18:14] ---
    No, sir!
[18:15] ---
    It is coming after us!
[18:17] ---
    Just run!
[18:22] ---
    Why won't it leave us alone, sir?
[18:24] ---
    Scarecrow-san, this way!
[18:25] ---
    Lady Kiko!
[18:26] ---
    But that way is...
[18:27] ---
    ...a dead end!
[18:28] ---
    Just trust me!
[18:29] ---
    Get down!
[18:50] ---
    Now... which of you should I blast first?
[18:53] ---
    Her, her.
[18:53] ---
    No, him.
[18:54] ---
    Don't move!
[18:57] ---
    Ah, behind you.
[18:58] ---
    You fool!
[19:00] ---
    I won't fall for the same thing twice!
[19:12] ---
    Once again, I'll remember this!
[19:14] ---
    Don't come back!
[19:17] ---
    So mean.
[19:19] ---
    We're saved...
[19:20] ---
    Honestly...
[19:28] ---
    The door!
[19:30] ---
    No! It's moving!
[19:31] ---
    Out, quick!
[19:38] ---
    Lady Kiko, quick!
[19:39] ---

SIGN    Your dreams for the future? ESCAPE FROM EARTH!! Bye byeeeee♥ Katoyama Kiko
[20:31] ---
    Goodbye, Earth.
[20:36] ---
    All right!
[20:53] ---
    Somehow I knew that scarecrow was you!
[20:57] ---
    She knew...
[20:58] ---
    What happened to you
     after that, Lady Kiko?
[21:01] ---
    When I arrived on Keron, I lied that
    I was a mech designer on Earth.
[21:05] ---
    And the Keron Army hired me.
[21:07] ---
    It was Nobibi's father who was
    in charge of that unmanned spaceship,
[21:10] ---
    so I ended up freeloading
    at Nobibi's house.
[21:13] ---
    Huh... The way some things go...
[21:16] ---
    And so your dream came true,
     huh, Lady Kiko?
[21:20] ---
    Don't you want to go back
    to Pekopon anymore, ma'am?
[21:28] ---
    What would Kiko do after
     returning to Earth?
[21:31] ---
    That is a story for another time...
