.
It's me. Open up.
What's the meaning of this?
The order is to destroy Kikaider.
He is no longer functional.
I figured you may have an interest in his mechanism, Professor.
Instead of destroying him, I captured him.
Enter.
The Last Days of the Dream
Are you alright, Jiro?
Yes.
We were able to get in safely,
Dr. Koumiyouji?
Yes.
They really got in!
I hope it's okay.
Jiro's with him.
And my father said he knows what it's like inside too.
Yes, but even then....
It's me,
Your father.
Den Koumiyouji.
Father?
That's right, it's me.
Right now, my consciousness is controlling this body.
But...
But how?
It shouldn't be hard to believe.
Although I never planned on this.
Father....
Mitsuko.
I've made you endure painful memories, haven't I?
I neglected you and subjected you to so much.
All of my research has resulted in this sad state.
It's too late to say anything now.
But it was inexcusable.
Father...
It really is you, father?
Mitsuko.
Father!
I'm glad.
Jiro.
So you've been looking after Mitsuko?
Thank you.
Doctor.
Mitsuko, we're running out of time.
Saburo may regain control at any time.
But....
But before that happens, there's something I have to do.
I have to take responsibility for what I have done.
I will go too.
No, you must protect Mitsuko and Masaru.
I'll go too.
Mitsuko!
Trying to stop me is useless, I'm stubborn like you, father.
If something happens to you Doctor, everyone will be sad.
Please let us help you.
Everyone...
I've finally found you!
Sis!
Why... why am I still a child?
Masaru...
If I were grown up, I could fight along with everyone.
If I were bigger....
I want to grow up right now,
I want to protect my sister and father!
It's okay.
I'm sure everyone will come back safe.
It's a pretty reckless plan.
Jiro will open the door from the inside,
And then we'll sneak in and rescue Dr. Koumiyouji's frozen body.
I don't know.
Mr. Hattori,
I can't ask....
Oh now, not a word!
How could I, Hattori Hanpei, call myself a man if I let a young girl like you do this alone?
Alright!
With this every alarm and guard is deactivated.
Good!
There are still vital signs!
Doctor, hurry and get out.
Doctor.
Jiro.
You've developed like a human even further than I ever imagined.
Doctor.
The cross I've given you to bear is heavy.
While a robot, still feeling suffering like a human.
I should not have created the Gemini.
No, Doctor,
I am grateful to you, Doctor.
Like a human, I worry, suffer, and can feel.
I'm really happy I can.
Jiro.
You really have developed a heart.
A kind heart.
I do not intend to return to normal.
Doctor!
I have committed a crime.
I could not stop the robots I created by my hands from being used as weapons.
But... that's Professor Gill's...
But it still does not erase my crime.
And even if I were to return,
These robots I've created would bring tragedy upon Mitsuko and Masaru again.
If he perfects his ultimate weapon,
Gill will be able to control the world.
Before that can happen, I will destroy him with my own hands.
Doctor!
Jiro,
I'm glad I created you.
Please look after Mitsuko and Masaru.
Doctor!
What is it, Hakaider?
Or, should I say, Doctor Koumiyouji?
Gill!
What's that?
Mitsuko!
I had always expected your opposition.
But I didn't think you would strike back at me with only your brain.
Gill!
I will not let you gather these robots as weapons.
So what are you going to do?
Are you going to kill me?
I will have you disappear along with me.
This...
Doctor!
No! Jiro!
This is strange,
There's no one around?
What's that?
What is this place?
Are you alright, Mitsuko?
How horrible!
We have to get him outside!
Doctor!
They are mass produced, but their foundations are the same as Saburo.
How long can the two of you hold out?
Gill!
A hologram!
Now you die, Koumiyouji!
Doctor!
Doctor, run!
He can't do that.
Too bad,
Time's up.
Saburo?
It was naive of you to not destroy my circuits.
Even without all these others, I could easily finish you.
Kikaider!
Your time is up too, Saburo.
I only have use for machines that follow orders.
Gill!
Stop!
Doctor...
You'll soon be joining him.
What??
Just what....
Jiro!
Mitsuko.
I'm glad! You're okay!
Th-th-th-that's!
Mitsuko, please.
Jiro.
The Doctor is still alive.
If we transplant his brain back into his body quickly, we might be able to save him!
Mr. Hattori!
Please.
O-okay!
I...
I'm going to where Professor Gill is.
Jiro.
We're just tools that he uses and discards.
Gill doesn't believe in humans or robots.
I cannot allow this to go on.
Mitsuko,
Go with the Doctor.
Jiro!
Mr. Hattori,
Yes,
You be careful too.
You must...
Come home.
I'll be waiting.
Why?
A robot that has the same abilities as Hakaider?
You've come.
Professor Gill....
You always betray my wishes.
Why?
You probably can't understand.
You'll never understand.
You'll never know how much suffering this strength causes me.
Worried about Jiro?
That Jiro... he was a little frightening.
It was like the time he was fighting out of anger.
If he goes on fighting like this, Jiro's Gemini....
It's okay.
He has a kind heart, kinder than even a human's.
Why do you do this?
Using humans and robots as tools.
What does it do for you?
Robots are only tools.
They exist only to follow my orders.
We are not tools, we are alive!
Just like humans,
We are alive and have hearts!
Why?
How can you move?
Just as humans grow, I also grow.
I will not listen to you!
Can you kill a human?
I can kill.
My hands have already taken the lives of many of my brothers.
They are bloody hands!
It's because of your ridiculous conscience that you hesitate.
Like a human you worry, suffer, hate, and anger.
But in the end, you're just a machine.
A doll built by Koumiyouji.
I...
I don't know what Koumiyouji's daughter instilled in you,
Do you think you can become human?
Do you truly believe a human and robot can be joined together?
This is Dark's ultimate mechanical weapon.
With its perfection, the world will be mine!
It is still experimental and is only at a hundredth of its full potential,
However it is more than enough to take care of you.
Die!
Saburo!
So, till the end...
It's Koumiyouji's robots that interfered....
Kikaider...
Remember this...
No matter what you do...
You cannot become human.
That cursed time...
How much do you have left?
Jiro!
Excuse me!
Oh! Mr. Hattori!
Hello! It's been a while!
How is your father?
He just fell asleep.
He's progressing well.
He's going to go overseas soon for rehabilitation.
That's good to hear.
So... what about Jiro?
Well...
After that explosion...
Sir!
But, I believe.
Done!
Pinocchio who finally became human,
Lived happily ever after with Gepetto.
Jiro will,
I'm sure he'll come home.
Because he promised.
