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
Hibike Casshan!
Tatake Casshan!
Kudake Casshan!
Uwasa ni kikoeta sugoi yatsu
Kikku atakku denkou panchi
Umare kawatta fujimi no karada
Andoro gundan taosu made
Moeru ikari wo buchikamase
Furenda jetto
Shinzo ningen Casshan
Casshan, Casshan!
Raging Wind Flender
The attacks by the Andro Army intensify and cities are destroyed one by one.
Braiking Boss is the leader of the Andro Army.
His ambition is to set up a robot empire in this island country after he occupies it.
Toward this end,
he makes himself the strongest android and strengthens his control.
You've made it just as I ordered, haven't you, Dr. Gater?
I have, Braiking Boss. General, sir.
Next to Dr. Azuma, I am confident that I'm the world authority on robot engineering.
Men need vitamins to get strong.
Android, if you use this andromin replenisher continuously,
you will certainly get stronger.
You are saying that I can become the strongest android ever with that, aren't you?
The time when I can conquer mankind is near!
This is the only andromin replenisher in the world.
Well, let me tell you, it costs a pretty penny.
As you promised, I've got a huge pay day coming!
I know that!
First of all, as a token of my gratitude, let me shake hands with you, Dr. Gater.
Well, it's my honor.
Damn fool...
Get rid of him, Sweeper Robot!
Swanee!
Switch the machine on.
It's very powerful, Swanee.
Now I'll become the strongest android in the world!
I can finish Casshan with one blow!
Akubon!
Yes, sir!
How many fighter robots are there?
About two thousand.
That's all?
The production capacity of the castle factory isn't very large.
Okay, let's raid the industrial city of this country and capture the factory.
Then we'll obtain a larger production capacity.
Yes, sir!
Now, get on with the operation!
Hail, Braiking!
With this machine, I'll make the fighter robots more powerful.
Where are you flying off to?
Swanee?
What did you do to Swanee, OOH?
I captured her because she tried to escape, Boss.
What? She tried to escape?
Don't be a fool!
Come to me.
Swanee is my favorite pet.
She wouldn't escape from here.
She must have gotten bored and wanted to go outside the castle.
There, there...
That's all. Beat it!
Hail, Braiking!
Outside this castle there is a man named Casshan who wants to destroy all robots.
You're a robot too.
You'll be destroyed if you come across him.
Don't leave the castle from now on.
Chief Sagure, there is something fishy about Swanee.
Follow her!
Casshan and Luna are hiding at Dr. Kozuki's villa at the foot of this mountain.
Because he's been fighting against the robots every day, Casshan's energy is running low.
Casshan needs solar energy.
But the sun...
Nasty rain...
I hope it clears up soon.
Dammit!
If only the sun would come out,
I could break Braiking Boss's electronic brain!
I want to take that castle back.
That castle over there is full of memories.
I've enjoyed playing in the water of the beautiful lake with Tetsuya riding on Swanee.
I wonder when those happy days will come back?
Those days will never come back.
I'm not Tetsuya.
I'm a neo-human called Casshan!
I cannot become a man again.
Casshan, I'm sorry,
but this is what I believe.
Although you're the neo-human Casshan,
you've got the tender heart of Tetsuya.
That makes me feel happy.
Somebody is coming.
Swanee! Swanee!
Are you all right?
I'm glad to see you!
Did something happen?
If only there were moonlight...
The moon has come out, Mother!
Mother?
Luna, I'll let you in on the secret of Swanee.
Come...
Swanee!
Mrs. Azuma!
Luna".
Ma'am, why?
Luna, my father hid her in Swanee
and she spies on Braiking Boss in the castle.
I thought you would be at this villa today.
I have to hurry, otherwise, the clouds will hide the moon.
Braiking Boss intends to attack the industrial city, Casshan.
What? The industrial city?
Yes, his intention is to capture a factory and produce as many robots as possible.
Dammit!
If only I were in good condition!
What's more...
Braiking Boss has obtained a formidable machine which makes a robot more powerful.
Flender!
He followed Swanee!
It's as I suspected!
Swanee is your spy!
Flender, get him!
Otherwise, my mother's secret will be known to them!
Casshan!
Mrs. Azuma!
Flender!
Go to Hell, Casshan!
Casshan!
I'm all right.
"I was a narrow escape.
Leave here right away, Mother.
There may be other robots around.
Hurry, now!
She lives in constant danger.
Please be careful, Mother.
Casshan...
I'll go and warn them in the industrial city.
What?
It's dangerous even when you go through the town.
I have this MF Gun my father left me.
Luna, I'll follow you when the sun rises in the morning.
Take care of Casshan, Flender.
I'll never end up as scrap.
I have to contact Braiking Boss.
She was with Casshan.
I'll kill her.
Swanee's back, but OOH hasn't returned.
Father...
I'm sure he can invent a perpetual energy source if I can ﬁnd him.
If I become a perfect neo-human,
I can defeat Bra/king Boss.
What's happened, Flender?
Oh, no!
If that spy robot reports to Braiking Boss,
Swanee... my mother will be in danger!
Go, Flender!
You fool, I'm immortal!
Don't worry.
You fight for me in case of emergency!
I'll be relieved if I know my mother is safe!
Please, Flender.
Thank you, Flender.
Let's go, Flender!
Flender Car!
He was found below the precipice.
What a pity; he was a capable intelligent robot.
It's clear he was destroyed by Casshan and his group.
He fought against that dog robot and he was destroyed by the MF Gun.
Dammit, that Casshan!
Boss, Swanee passes information on us to Casshan.
Swanee can't speak.
But Casshan has a dog robot named Flender.
Robots can communicate with one another.
That's not impossible.
Swanee is a swan robot that was invented by Dr. Azuma.
She can betray us.
Wait, Swanee!
Swanee!
Where did you go so secretly?
Did you meet with Casshan?!
Don't lie!
Tell me the truth!
Mother...
Okay, I'll disassemble you and take out your electronic brain.
If they check the electronic brain, they'll discover my secret'.
Then I won't be able to pass information to Casshan any longer.
And my life...
Wait, Braiking!
Casshan!
So, you've come to rescue Swanee.
You must be crazy to suspect your own robot!
Wh..What?
I'll destroy your crazy electronic brain today!
Casshan, you're still weak.
You can't beat him down.
Get out of here right away!
Shooting Star Kick!
Casshan!
Look! I'll throw Swanee into the fires of Hell!
Casshan, don't worry about me. Escape!
A robot suspects a fellow robot?
This is the end of the Andro Army!
What?
Men can trust one another.
That's why they're strong.
You will be destroyed before long!
I'll show you how powerful this andromin replenisher is.
Take this!
And this!
Now...
Damn you, Casshan!
Casshan!
Forgive me, Casshan.
Mother, fight as best as you can!
Erase Bra/king Boss's suspicions!
Swanee, well done!
It was my mistake to have suspected you.
Okay, leave him to me!
Flender!
The andromin replenisher!
Wait, Casshan!
I'll give this back to you!
After them! Don't let them get away!
Flender Jet!
Mother!
Casshan, fjght well!
I'll do my best as well.
The sun has risen, bringing hope with it.
Shine, Sun.
Sunlight is Casshan's life.
Casshan lives only to fight.
His solar meter absorbs the energy from the sunlight.
Go, Casshan!
Who will do it if not Casshan?
Sugata katachi wa kawaranu ga
Tetsu wo mo kudaku kono ude sa
Yume mo kibou mo kinou ni sutete
Tatakau dake ni ikite yuku
Ore wa ore wa shinzo ningen Casshan
In order to mass-produce fearful single-clawed robots,
The Andro Army tries to steal the diamond statue of the hero Kikero from a village.
Casshan tries to stop them,
but the villagers become suspicious of him after seeing his inhuman strength
and start calling him a “robot human”.
Now both the Andro Army and the villagers are against Casshan.
Next time on Casshan: “An Oath to the Hero Kikero"
Look forward to it!
