He abandoned the only life he had.
And now he's been reborn as an immortal.
He destroys the iron evil.
Who will do it if not Casshan?
CASSHAN
Resonate it, Casshan!
Hit it, Casshan!
Smash it, Casshan!
The incredible one, who has been rumored
Kick, attack, electric punch
Reborn as an immortal
Until you defeat the Andro Army
Explode your burning fury
Flender Jet!
The neo-human Casshan
Casshan, Casshan!
Find Tomorrow in the Ruins
Braiking Boss, the commander of the Andro Army,
produced robots one after another and occupied almost all of the city district.
The government, on the other hand, has prepared no effective countermeasures.
Their weapons production capacity is far inferior to that of the Andro Army.
Hail, Braiking!
At this point, we have no other way than to make robots superior to androids
in order to destroy the Andro Army.
But now that Dr. Azuma, who is a world famous authority on robot engineering, is missing
it is almost impossible to do that.
I hear that the son of Dr. Azuma, Tetsuya, is also missing.
That's right, Dr. Azuma and his family are missing.
You can see the Azuma family on the screen.
Who is that girl?
She doesn't seem to be a member of his family.
At that time, Luna Kozuki, who was a childhood friend of Casshan when he was still Tetsuya,
was looking for Tetsuya, who had disappeared with Dr. Azuma.
Luna couldn't understand why he disappeared without telling her.
You!
Tetsuya!
What happened to you?
I'm so glad to see you.
I was looking for you.
I am not Tetsuya.
I don't know who Tetsuya is.
You don't?
Lucky?
That's right, Lucky who was always with Tetsuya was killed.
This dog is a robot dog called Flender,
and I am not Tetsuya.
There are some dead ringers in this world.
But...
It's very dangerous for you to be here.
I will take you home.
Let's go.
This is the house of Dr. Kozuki who is a world famous authority on electronic engineering
and a good friend of Dr. Azuma, Casshan's father.
Hello, Father.
Welcome home, I was worried about you.
Father, this man rescued me when I was attacked by robots.
Oh, it's you, Tetsuya.
Come on in.
I didn't recognize you at first because your clothes are different.
You were safe, then?
I hear that your father is missing.
I am not Tetsuya.
Both of you take me for someone else.
Take you for someone else?
Your father, Dr. Azuma, is my best friend.
You don't have to hide anything from me.
You can tell me anything.
I don't know anyone called Dr. Azuma.
Then who in the world are you?
My name is Casshan.
Casshan?
You really look like Tetsuya.
But maybe there is a bit of difference.
Where are you from?
Who are your parents?
ls something wrong?
No, I'm from the next town and my parents were killed by the Andro Army.
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
Doctor!
This...
Oh, this.
This is a magnetic field gun.
We call it an MF Gun.
An MF Gun?
This will be able to destroy the electronic brain of an android when it is completed.
Of course, it will kill a robot without fail.
This is still a trial product.
When it is completed, it will become a very effective weapon against the Andro Army.
As you can see, it's not too practical.
It's an the Andro Army spy.
Flender, don't let him go.
It seems he missed him.
Never mind, this house was bound to be located sooner or later.
I have already arranged a hideout.
A hideout?
What? Dr. Kozuki?
Yes, sir! According to reports from the spy robot,
the MF Gun is powerful enough to destroy us when it is completed.
Dr. Kozuki is an authority on electrical engineering.
We must do something before the MF Gun is completed.
Barashin!
Yes, sir! Barashin!
He has probably hidden himself,
but find him and kill him.
Dr. Kozuki moved his laboratory to the basement of this church.
This was the most suitable place for him to further develop the MF Gun.
It is the only weapon which will be able to destroy the atrocious the Andro Army.
He worked on it day and night to complete it as soon as possible.
It's a sad tune.
Even Braiking Boss will not be able to find the new laboratory under this church.
I can see only the ruins.
Look, do you hate androids?
Don't you?
Sure, I...
I can't believe this used to be our town.
Tetsuya!
As I thought; he may be Tetsuya.
Tetsuya!
Wait!
Tetsuya!
It's no use calling me Tetsuya.
I don't know why, but the name comes out without thinking.
Please eat this.
No thanks, I don't want any.
You should eat something.
I really don't want to eat now.
You aren't an android.
You'll die if you don't eat.
I said I don't want any!
I'm sorry, I just don't want to eat anything right now.
I'm a neo-human who can't taste food or smell flowers.
He isn't Tetsuya.
The Tetsuya I know is much nicer.
Flender, you are the only one who understands my feelings.
If she finds out that I am a neo-human, Luna will be shocked.
It's too bad you can't talk to me.
I feel so lonely.
I want to play with Luna as we used to before.
But if she stays with me, she will face danger all the time.
What should I do ?
Mother!
Tetsuya, I was looking for you.
Mother, I can't believe you managed to sneak out of Braiking Boss' castle.
Yes, he wants to have Swanee beside him all the time, you know.
Well, Casshan,
Braiking Boss is looking for the MF Gun invented by Dr. Kozuki.
The MF Gun?
You must find him and help him, please.
He is in the church in the town.
I've met up with Luna too.
Then, did you tell them about yourself?
No, Luna will feel very sad if she is told that I'm not a human being any more.
I don't want to tell anybody about myself.
I know it's very hard.
I have to go.
I think they've started a thorough search for Dr. Kozuki.
Flender Car!
You can burn down the whole town to find Dr. Kozuki.
We must get the MF Gun.
Who's there?
I am the one who fights for peace:
Casshan!
Here goes!
Shooting Star Kick!
Flying Drill!
What? You were interrupted by Casshan again?
Yes, I'm sorry.
What were you doing as military director?
Sir! But I've never seen a human that strong.
He is too strong to be a man.
You shouldn't be so impressed with him.
You must take responsibility too.
It will be too late when the MF Gun is completed.
Use your head.
Kozuki has a daughter.
Catch her and make her tell us his whereabouts.
And kill the kid as soon as you see him next time.
Hail, Braiking!
Someone, help!
Anyone!
It's Luna.
No, I can't.
If I go to help her, she'll know that I'm not a man.
Luna, run to the alley.
My... You know my name.
Hurry UP!
Yes!
Casshan, you!
How dare you take my subordinate apart?!
Now I will repay you.
Hurry, run!
Kill him!
Te..Tetsuya!
Casshan didn't want to show that he was not a human being.
If he fought, she would know that he was an android.
He didn't want to make Luna sad.
That's enough.
We can kill him now.
This robot dog fights against robots.
Break him to pieces!
Damn it! Retreat!
Crazy robot dog, we will break you to pieces next time.
Are you all right, Tetsuya?
Tetsuya!
Luna, watch out!
Now you know that I am not a human being.
You are...
Tetsuya is dead.
I was reborn as a neo-human called Casshan to defeat androids.
No, I don't believe it.
You are Tetsuya.
Yes, you are Tetsuya.
My hands, my legs and my body...
Look at me!
Can any human being do that?
Can Tetsuya do that?
lam not a human being.
Do you understand now?
Don't tell me that you are not Tetsuya.
Don't tell me such a thing.
This was the only path that I could choose that would save people.
I must say goodbye to you.
Tetsuya!
Wait.
Even if you are a neo-human, you are still Tetsuya to me.
We are still friends.
I want to fight with you.
Please let me go with you.
Luna, Braiking Boss is looking for Dr. Kozuki.
You should go to a safer place with your father.
No, the MF Gun will be completed soon.
I won't be a burden to you.
I promise, so please let me fight with you.
I don't want you to always be in danger.
Please understand.
I'm not afraid of facing danger.
No, you must forget about me.
Can any human being do that?
lam not a human being.
This was the only path that I could choose that would save people.
My appearance hasn't changed
But my arm can even smash iron
I abandoned my dreams and hopes yesterday
Fighting is the only reason I live on
I am the neo-human Casshan
The MF Gun is finally completed, but the Andro Army snatches it away.
Not only that, but Luna is now their prisoner.
Casshan receives the news from Swanee and infiltrates the central base of the Andro Army.
But now the MF Gun points at Casshan!
Casshan is in a terrible pinch!
Next time on Casshan: “Channel Anger Into the MF Gun”
Look forward to it!
