Gate Keepers (ゲ ー ト キ ー パ ー ズ)

An accident?!?!

No, it's them.

The Invaders.

Start the Earth Defense!

That's right, Earth is being targeted.

Our beautiful blue planet.

Now. . .

Hey!

The accident at Haneda Airport today, was caused by. . .

Would you stop watching that?

What are you doing!?!?

You're in high school, you shouldn't watch those kids' shows.

Wait Saemi.

Why don't you watch it first, before you judge it as a kid's show.

It's really fun, really.

Stop it! I don't want to!

Don't change the channel!

People can hear the TV outside.

So what?

I don't want the neighbors to think I'm watching that stuff.

It's fine!

No! I don't want to!!!

You two are only thing I have. . .

I feel so ashamed. . .

I better get going now.

I'm on my way!

Ah! Me too. . .

Thank you for breakfast.

Shun! Tell your father you're on your way!

I don't really need to. . .

I told you many times.

You're misunderstanding your father.

I remember when you were being born. . .

It was such a hard birth that even the nurses couldn't handle,

He was worried something might happen to us,

Then he suddenly ran back and forth to the temple 100 times.

SHUN!!!

How's mom?

What do you mean? She's same as ever.

I see. . .

May 1969

Don't run off like that again.

But I don't want to deal with all that. . .

They're tearing it down here too. . .

Yeah. . .

Do you remember when we took the tran from there to Nikotama with Dad?

I totally forgot about that.

Such a thing. . .

What's wrong with your attitude, you sound like a child.

Why you. . .

Matsuda-san, good morning!

Ah, morning.

Good morning.

Morning.

It broke down again?

Yeah, it did.

When your dad was still alive,

He would've fixed it in no time.

Sorry about that. . .

I'll go on ahead.

Hey! Watch the traffic!

I'm not a child anymore.

Well then Matsuda-san, I better be on my way too.

Okay, say hello to your mother for me.

The clothes she made me last time were great.

Sure.

Piece of sh. . .

We've lost 6 out of 8 decoy planes.

That was far too many.

You think Nicro will be okay?

Don't worry about it.

We've devised a special transport plans for it.

Transportation plan?

That's right, we called "her" in for the plan.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I'll be your tour guide.

My name is Ikusawa Ruriko.

Thank you very much.

And now, on your right hand side. . .

Will be the Haneda Airport Express Monorail.

It was put in service in September of Showa 39, which was 5 years ago.

Since then it has become a door from the city to the sky,

And a bridge to the airport.

Now, to your left hand side we can see. . .

Begin.

Basic of Spocon is,

Glorious counterattack from tough spot!

Ultra Super Cut!!!

Kote.

Ippon.

Ukiya!

Yes!

That was close. . .

Today's Kendo match.

Yeah, really.

If I had more time I could've gotten him with my special attack.

Why don't you join the Kendo club, and learn from the basics?

Basics?

Suggesting such thing is really rude to a man.

Barely winning isn't cool anyways.

If you join the club and train hard. . .

You might be good enough to earn a scholarship.

Wouldn't it help your mother too?

Well,

It I'm going to use my energy, I prefer to work part time then participate club activity.

Heroes from those Spocon mangas usually come from hard families.

It'll work itself out.

Well then, good bye.

Oh well. . .

What's with this awful ramen?

Are you feeding me pig food?

What?

Then why did you finish it?

I forced myself to eat that!

Now I want my money back!

You got to be kidding.

Well, then I'll let you go this time.

Hey! Hey! Get out of my way, you piece of junk!

How could you. . .

You told me you'll divorce your wife for me, boss.

There's no way I'd actually take my relationship with a country girl like you seriously.

You don't need to come to work anymore.

Now, to my left hand side. . .

Unknown signal detected!

It's them!

Initiate attack.
