Prologue

Space Year 00XX

The Earth had been through a crisis and had overcome it thanks to 
these brave people.  Kabuto Kouji and Mazinger Z had defeated Dr. Hell 
and his Kikaijuu and likewise Tsurugi Tetsuya had defeated the Mikene. 
The Getter Team had defeated the Hyakki Empire and the battle with the 
Campbell Seijin for Combattler V and the Combattler team was nearing 
its finale.

Out in space, the same can be said with the Agama team spearheading 
the defeat of the Titans and Neo Zion faction of both Gremy and Haman 
Khan along with Trieze's OZ faction. Yet on the verge of total victory, 
the Federation, having too lightly assessing the problem decides to 
stop it's full assault against the Titans remnant and used only the 
Agama team led by Bright Noah to defeat the Titans remnant granting it 
full autonomy in this area. Cooperation and backup from the Super 
Robots of Japan had also been cut and each was left to deal with the 
various remnants of the enemies that they have destroyed or is on the 
verge of defeating.

Half a year had passed and not a thing had been resolved even though a 
new war dawns on the Earth.

Episode 1

In a distant place, a mysterious person notes that this day had 
finally come but he will not let things end this way, he will not let 
his ideal be easily destroyed like this as the rumblings and 
earthquake grows even stronger.

On our Earth, in the Agama, Camille informs Bright that the ZZ Gundam 
has arrived. Quattro note that in the end even though the war had 
ended, Judo was still not free to do as he wanted but Fa tells Quattro 
that this time Judo agreed himself to help them. Bright lamented that 
it was their fault as military men that in this half year that they 
couldn't totally defeat the Titans remnant and he could only apologize 
to them. Judo comes in saying that it can't be helped even though they 
did defeat the head of the Titans/Neo Zion. Ru agrees that at the very 
least the Earth had become peaceful. Camille says that it's not a full 
lasting peace since the Titans are still waging their guerilla war and 
there are still enemies targeting the Earth. Fa note that even though 
Dr. Hell is gone, the Kikaijuu are still appearing to which Camille 
note is what Kouji told them. Emma note that while Kouji and the 
others have tried their best, they're not quite effective at locating 
where the Kikaijuu/ Sentoujuu factories are (without support from the 
Federation or a ship like the Agama.) Ru asks what the Getter team and 
Combattler team are up to and Bright says that the Getter team is 
trying to wipe out the last Hyakki remnants and the Combattler team is 
trying to find the Campbell's base on Earth. Fa notes that unlike 
before, everyone had been scattered to deal with their own problems. 
Bright note that since the enemies are more or less remnants without a 
figurehead, it becomes harder to deal with them and predict their 
movements which is why everyone is split up. Quattro hopes that it 
doesn't give them all a big disadvantage against their enemies.

Riina hopes that everyone is ok and so does Judo and Ru tells them not 
to be quite glum like that. Judo note that he has a very bad 
premonition that something bad is soon to happen. Barely had the word 
comes out that Emma report to Bright that there is an SOS from Jaburo 
which has Judo noting that Jaburo's quite wide and no remnants have 
the manpower to attack it in one go like that. Quattro note that it 
may have been an accident and Emma tells Bright that they cannot 
establish a connection with Jaburo and the signal for the SOS has been 
cut off. Quattro note that they have to head for Jaburo at once.


Near Jaburo, Folker awakes to find himself in a different place than 
he knew and wonder if it's that person's handiwork and note that 
they're also here. He didn't think he'd have to face them this quickly 
but he might as well go have a look.

At Jaburo, Arion note that these people were sure pathetically weak; 
he'd thought he'd warmed up a bit with them but this is QUITE a 
disappointment. His troops ask what they should do with this location 
and Arion tells them to burn it to the ground as a beacon to lure more 
suitable prey to them. The Agama arrives to see Jaburo devastated by a 
troop that they cannot identify. Arion tells the Agama team that they 
sure are lucky to be those who have seen the Shura General Arion in 
all his glory and it's up to them whether their acquaintance with him 
will be short or long. Quattro note that it's an unheard of enemy. 
Arion asks if the Agama teams are warrior who came to rescue these 
weaklings here and Ru asks why is that so important? Arion says that 
it's to determine whether they have the will to fight him or not 
though he doesn't really care whether they do or not. Arion deploys 
Shura troops all around the Agama saying that whatever their answers 
are, they'll join these weaklings in death. Emma notes that Arion WAS 
the one who attacked Jaburo then? Bright tells everyone to deploy to 
stop them and the battle begins with Arion quite glad that they choose 
to fight instead of run since it's better to defeat a fighting enemy 
than a coward who is running away.

Halfway through the battle, the Shura troops note that the Agama team 
is a LOT stronger than those they just slaughtered and says that they 
have to retreat but Arion tells them that before that, they'd better 
choose whether they want to die in battle against the enemies or by 
HIS hands and the Shura troops out of fear says that they will die in 
battle against the enemies. Emma notes that an unidentified object is 
heading their ways with Bright noting that its enemy reinforcements. 
Folker arrive saying that he detected their machine's energy signature 
so he knew it was them. Judo and Camille note that the new arrival's 
machine resembles Arion's to which Ru wonders if it's also an enemy 
but Camille says that it's looking quite strange. Folker asks if they 
still plans on continuing this pointless fighting, hadn't they see 
that their surroundings, this world, is different? Arion note that 
it's Folker and says that for a Shura, fighting is everything no 
matter WHERE they are though a traitor to the Shura ideals like him 
would probably not understand. Folker says that it is no longer 
something that interests him. Arion says that without fighting, what 
are they left with? He's the one saying something stupid, an alien 
concept even. Folker says that he came to a realization that's all. 
Now where is the Shura King? Arion says that that's another stupid 
thing he's saying, how is Folker going to know when he'll die at 
Arion's hand in a moment or two. Folker then retorted "You can go 
ahead and try." Arion says that someone like Folker is no match for 
him.

Judo says that can the two of them stop talking personal chit chat 
leaving the Agama team in the dark and Folker says that if they don't 
want to die, leave at once which angers Ru a bit saying that that's 
THEIR line; it's him who should leave. Folker says that he has some 
information to get from them and if they interfere, he wouldn't hold 
back. Ru says that he and the Shura are the one who comes in without 
warning with their battles. Judo says that if Folker plans to attack 
Jaburo too then they'll take him on. Folker says fine.

However before the team can come to blow with Folker Fernando and his 
troops arrive saying that he's finally found Folker at last. Fernando 
seems to have a very big grudge against Folker. Folker tells Fernando 
to stop this pointless fighting but Fernando won't listen saying that 
he got disgraced by Folker and is planning on sending him to the 
netherworld.

Arion is defeated by the Agama team and he can't believe that he lost; 
he must have underestimated them so he'll take his leave now. Folker 
asks if Arion still plans to continue fighting and Arion says that he 
told them that fighting is everything to them and he will look forward 
to the day they fight again. Judo note that Arion is running away but 
Quattro says that taking back Jaburo is more important so don't follow 
him.

Fernando is defeated by Folker and begins to retreat and Folker tells 
Fernando to hear him out first but Fernando says that he already told 
Folker that he will pay him back for his disgrace but Folker says that 
that's not what he intended and Fernando says that until he kills 
Folker, Folker better not die by someone else's hand and he leaves. 
Folker says "Fernando, I..."

The battle is over and Camille wonders what their purpose was with 
Emma noting that they better ask Folker with Bright asking who he is. 
Folker says that they better not mess with him and Quattro says that 
that's not possible since Jaburo is decimated and Folker seems to be 
the only one who knows what's going on. Folker says that this has no 
connection to him but Judo says that that Arion fellow and the other 
one sure knew him. Bright says that they need information and Folker 
asks if that means they plan to fight him. Bright says that if 
possible, they'd like to avoid that which made Folker thinks "They 
don't desire a pointless fight; they seem different than the Shura" 

After thinking it over, Folker says that he'll talk with them. Bright 
asks his name and troop he belongs to to which Folker tells them his 
name and that he has no alliegance. Fa asks if he's fighting the Shura 
army alone to which Folker says yes. Quattro asks what the Shura 
army's purpose is and Folker says that it's to fight, they love 
fighting and winning, it's everything to them. Bright can't believe it, 
so they attacked Jaburo not out of some sort of strategical oversight 
but just because they wanted a fight.

Folker says that that's right, is that enough information? Camille 
tells Folker to wait, where did he and the Shura came from? Folker 
says that this is OUR problem; he doesn't want anyone else embroiled 
in this. Judo asks if that meant that Folker is also a Shura? Folker 
says that he is but he is different from them to which Emma asks if he 
can tell them all he knows but Folker says that he can't. Bright asks 
if Folker can board the Agama since in a situation where they know 
nothing about the Shura, they don't want him out of their sight and 
Folker is in need of information also. Folker begrudgingly complies.

In the meeting room of the Agama, Folker says that he doesn't want 
to talk much about the Shura and they wouldn't force him to. Emma 
asks why not and Folker says that this is a problem he must solve 
himself so they don't NEED to know. Camille asks if he plans on 
taking the Shura army out all alone and Quattro asks where are they 
from? Folker asks if they really don't know...so this means that this 
isn't the Shura World. Fa then tells Folker that this is South 
America and such which Folker don't know either. Camille don't 
understand, just WHERE is this Shura World and Ru asks how he and 
the Shura got here.

Folker says that during a fight with the Shura, everything went 
white and the next thing he knew, he was here. Emma sum it up that 
he and the others were sent from the Shura World to their world. 
Camille asks how many Shura made the trip and Folker doesn't know 
though if Shura are here then they will cause fighting and warfare 
to break out. Riina can't believe this and Bright tells Emma to do 
an emergency global check. Folker says that he'll take his leave now 
but Bright says that he has more questions but Folker doesn't plan 
on answering them, as long as Shura are here, he'll fight. He's say 
all that he wanted to say.

Quattro says that Folker doesn't know anything about THIS world 
right? How is he going to find the Shura? The Agama team is capable 
of quickly responding to crisis around the world with information 
feed from their global sources, if the Shura appears, they'll know 
the fastest. Folker asks if in exchange for that information, they 
want him to join up with them. Quattro says that's correct, they 
need more detailed information about the Shura also. Ru point out 
that those with the same purpose should stick together. Bright 
reiterate Quattro's proposal and ask if Folker would join them. 
Folker says begrudgingly again "Fine"

Meanwhile, Arion tells Fernando to wait up but Fernando says that 
he's in a foul mood so if Arion don't want to be six feet under, 
he'll make himself scarce. Arion says that Fernando's after Folker 
right? Well it seems Folker had been captured by that Agama team 
from what his troops tells him. Fernando can't believe it, that 
traitor is too strong to be captured THAT easily by those weaklings. 
Arion says that capture may be too strong a word but that Folker 
willingly went on that ship. Fernando sees this and reason that 
Folker couldn't beat them on his own and thus had join forces with 
the people here to fight them. Arion says that things are getting 
interesting now aren't they? This annoys Fernando as to how low 
Folker can "sink." Arion says that he's not someone on Fernando's 
rank but seeing as how they're old acquaintances, he can't just take 
Folker and that team on by his lonesome. Fernando asks what the heck 
is Arion planning and Arion says that he'll take on the Agama team 
for Fernando to take on Folker. Fernando agrees to this plan and 
Arion says that he's found a couple more Shura Troops that had make 
it through so they should be capable of launching an attack soon.

Back at the Agama, Judo is admiring the Iadabalt, Ru note that it 
definitely looks like an otherworldly robot and Camille note that 
there's no weapon attached. Folker tells them not to get too close 
to it or their strength will be absorbed by it and make it difficult 
for him to control. Riina asks why is he piloting such a dangerous 
robot? Folker doesn't understand the meaning of this; they have to 
give power of their own to move a Shurajin. It's plain as day. Judo 
notes that it's a pretty cool name, Shurajin Ialdabolt. Folker asks 
if it's different here and Camille fills him in that they use 
nuclear reactor for MS. Folker asks if that means they use a 
different power source than themselves to move the Shurajin. Judo 
asks if Folker use something like Ki(Chi) to move the Yaruda. Folker 
says that the controller of the Shurajin exchange his lifeforce to 
convert it into energy for the Shurajin to move. Riina asks if that 
means that in exchange for piloting this thing, Folker will have a 
shorter lifespan?

Folker asks if there's a problem with that and says that those who 
rides the Shurajin accepts that they will either one day die on the 
battlefield or if not, if they survive the battle and die of a 
shorter lifespan, it's not a big deal. Judo note that it's not too 
difficult to imagine which gets Riina upset a bit. Folker says if he 
can ask Riina a question, why is SHE on this ship? This ship is for 
battle so why is someone like her on it? Judo says that Riina is his 
sister and this is probably the safest place for her. Folker asks 
quite perplexed if in this world, being on a warship is the safest 
place? Camille says that not everywhere is equally dangerous and 
Riina says that she can't help in the battlefield but if she can 
help even a little then she wants to be here with her big brother. 
Judo says that he want Riina to live where she'll be happy and the 
same goes for everyone which is why he's here to try and make a 
difference. Ru says that with Riina here, Judo can concentrate on 
fighting than worrying about leaving Riina alone. Folker note "For 
your sister, I see..." Folker says that he'll fight alongside them and 
to tell their commander. Camille wonders why the change of heart 
when just previously, Folker seems to want nothing to do with them. 
Ru note that he's probably thought of something.

At the Agama bridge, Bright note that there's no further report on 
the Shura with Emma noting that with Jaburo destroy, the Federation 
are in turmoil right now. Bright asks if the Titans remnants are 
taking advantage of this and Emma note that with their current 
capability, they can probably hit a base or two that's all. Quattro 
note that even with Jaburo active, they're too focused on protecting 
their own hideout. Emma tells Bright that she will contact the 
various labs in Japan for cooperation. Bright note that originally 
they should focus on the Titans, but the Shura are a more pressing 
concern. Quattro agrees and note that since they're not making a 
move now, they should use this opportunity to reestablish their 
ranks and get Kouji and the others back with them. Emma wonders why, 
since isn't it better to have them spread out so that they may gain 
more information about the Shura's location? Quattro says that the 
Shura are looking for someone to fight so the various Super Robots 
are an ideal target, it's better to have them all with the Agama 
than in their separate location being targeted by the Shura. Bright 
tells Emma to radio the lab that they'll soon go to pick up the 
Super Robots. Quattro note that leaves only Folker who Bright note 
had a sudden change of heart to work with them. Quattro note that he 
doesn't think Folker's a spy but they should be a little careful 
around him.

Episode 2 (Great Mazinger chosen first)

Jun asked Tetsuya why he suddenly deployed like that and Tetsuya 
says that after he defeated Ankoku Daishogun, the sleeping Sentoujuu 
have awoken to wreck havoc here which is why he'll go out in the 
Great to beat them all. Jun says that it's impossible to take them 
all on alone and Tetsuya says that Federation reinforcement is 
coming. Jun notes that they have to hold out until then, but Tetsuya 
says that he'll beat them all first before they get here. The 
Sentoujuu remnants arrive and Jun deploys in the Venus Ace also. 
Tetsuya note that with this large a number, it means that if they 
finish them all off here then there's probably not going to be much 
more left operational in this world.

The Sentoujuu remnants must have been really decayed and rusting 
since they're a pushover for Great (Weakest Sentoujuu EVER) but 
their number begins to overwhelm Tetsuya and Jun. Tetsuya tells Jun 
not to give up and if they fall here, he'll never be able to look 
Kouji in the face again. Tetsuya note then that the Venus must be 
near its limit and tells her to go back to the Fortress but Jun 
doesn't want to leave Tetsuya here alone which is when the Agama 
arrives.

Emma can't believe that there's this many Sentoujuu left and Jun 
says that they can't believe it themselves. Fa says that it's quite 
impressive that Tetsuya and Jun still fought on against these odds 
and Tetsuya replies that fighting is all he knows. Judo note that 
Tetsuya's still the same and Ru says that they have a new member 
JUST like him. Tetsuya addressed Folker, "So you're Folker from 
another dimension, why are you here?" Folker replies "Do I have to 
answer?" which angers Tetsuya and Folker says that he didn't come 
here of his own free will and Tetsuya retorted "Like I care if you 
wanted to come here" Jun tells Tetsuya that this isn't time to 
bicker and apologizes to Folker saying that Tetsuya's a bit on edge 
fighting the Sentoujuu. Folker asks if this sort of savagery is also 
here on this Earth. Emma says that the Sentoujuu are unmanned, 
they're AI controlled which is a bit of an alien concept for Folker 
and Quattro says that they do as they're ordered to but it's time to 
cut the chit chat and fight. Folker can't believe that there's a 
world where you just order machine to fight for you.

The Agama team and Great Mazinger easily mopped up the Sentoujuu 
remnant and Tetsuya note that the Sentoujuu won't bother them at the 
very least for a while.What's more important is about Folker. Emma 
says that outside of a few things, Folker is still keeping mums 
about the Shura army. Tetsuya ask why that is, is it something 
shameful but Folker says that the Shura are HIS problem. Tetsuya 
tells Folker that he might be considered a spy in this case but 
Folker asks what Tetsuya would do in his position which angers 
Tetsuya a bit. Jun tells Tetsuya to calm down, Folker's just come 
from another dimension, he's probably not up to sharing things with 
strangers right now. Folker says that that's enough talking; he sees 
that Tetsuya is a lot like him and his belief is not something that 
is easily expressed by words. Tetsuya says that he'll leave it at 
that then but if Folker makes a suspicious movement then and Folker 
says to do as Tetsuya please.

Tetsuya asks about the Shura's movement and Quattro says that 
there's no further movement and Bright chimes in that they're using 
this opportunity to gather more forces which Tetsuya agrees to be a 
part of. Camille and the others note that it's quite a relief to 
have Tetsuya and Great Mazinger with them from now and Ru wonders 
what the Combattler team and the Getter team are up to. Bright 
announce that they'll go get the Getter team next since they can 
respond to almost any type of attack. Folker asks if they're THAT 
strong and Camille tells him how Getter can change it's form to 
fight on Air, Land and the Sea and Judo says that Folker has to see 
it to believe it.

Episode 3

At the Saotome Institute, KoshoOni appears and is quite angry that 
Hidora Gensui had her sealed away like that but she's free now 
though the Hyakki Empire is no more. She asks if the Hyakki mech if 
they understand the plans, to hide while she calls out Getter Robo. 
The Hyakki mech hides and Kosho Oni calls out Getter Robo saying 
that she is an Oni, even though the Hyakki Empire is no more, she 
will not lose.  The Gett machine deploys and forms Getter Dragon. 
Ryouma recognize the voice as Kosho san and Benkei asks if she's 
still alive, they thought she was dead. Ryouma asks why she didn't 
contact them before but Kosho says that that's not necessary which 
shocks Ryouma and Hayato note that she seems to wants to fight them. 
Ryouma ask if that is so and Kosho says that she wants to defeat 
them. Ryouma ask if she didn't regain her humanity back then but 
Kosho asks what they are talking about, she is the Kosho Oni who 
wouldn't lose to anyone. Hayato note that her memories must have 
been tampered with. Ryouma doesn't want to fight Kosho but suddenly 
the Hyakki mechs pops up and Kosho says that she won't let herself 
be careless in her fight this time. Ryouma asks if Kosho can't 
really remember and Kosho says that she'll shut his mouth. Ryouma 
note that they'll have to make her remember during the fight though 
Benkei is quite skeptical of that though Hayato says that they'll 
have to do it.

More Hyakki remnant mechs arrives though the Getter team is still 
determined to defeat them and the Agama suddenly arrives to help 
them. Tetsuya note that from the looks of it, the Getter team still 
has things under control though the Getter team tells Tetsuya to 
stop joking and lend a hand with this amount. Bright order the 
deploy and Tetsuya can't believe that there's this many Hyakki mech 
left with Fa and Camille wondering just where the heck their 
automatic factories are since the scattered Super Robots couldn't 
find them. Ryouma ask if that is Folker whom they've been told about 
in that red mech and apologizes for involving him in this battle but 
Folker says that it's no worry since he had also involved this world 
in the battle with the Shura. Benkei says that they should get rid 
of these Hyakki mech to which Folker asks if they can destroy these 
things without worry. Emma says that the Hyakki mech are also 
unmanned (except for Kosho Oni's of course.)

The team scattered and Ryouma confronts Kosho Oni asking why they 
have to fight and tries to remind her of her humanity and that the 
Hyakki Empire is dead. Folker asks what are they doing with that 
enemy? Ru says that they are trying to help her and Folker doesn't 
understand, that enemy wanted to fight so isn't it more appropriate 
to reciprocate by fighting her? Camille says that if they can end 
things without fighting then it would be for the best. Folker is 
again finding this concept almost alien "Ending things without 
fighting so no one has to die?" Kosho says that she has to be number 
one to which Ryouma says that she can be the world's number one at 
being the kindest person and Benkei adds that she should know that 
she can't be a cold blooded Oni and Ryouma conclude that she's not 
Kosho Oni but the beautiful Kosho san. This snaps Kosho out of it 
and she wonders what's going on. Benkei and Hayato congratulate each 
other saying that they knew they could bring her back. Kosho says 
that after their last meeting, she was kidnapped by Hidora and 
brainwashed by him. Hayato says that anyhow, all's well that ends 
well since Hidora is long gone along with Brai. Kosho says that they 
have to take care of the Hyakki remnants and she'll help since they 
should know her strength. Ryouma tells Kosho to be careful. Needless 
worrying though since the team mop up quick. 

Hayato asks Kosho if this is all of the Hyakki remnants and Kosho 
says that it was all that remains in the base where she was put in 
but the Hyakki had bases in many locations so it's impossible to 
tell whether they've seen the last of the Hyakki's legacy. Kosho 
introduce herself to Bright and asks to be a part of the team. 
Ryouma note that that's it from the Hyakki for the foreseeable 
future and Hayato asks about the Shura and Quattro says that there's 
been no movement and Benkei wonders if they're in hiding. Folker 
doesn't think so; they're spread out throughout this world so 
they're probably just regrouping in order to amass a force to take 
on the Super Robots whom they've scouted out as formidable opponents. 
Camille note that it makes a lot of sense from the Shura's view but 
Jun note that it's not going to feel good when those who demolished 
Jaburo by a handful gathers themselves into an army to come gunning 
for them. Bright asks the Getter team for cooperation once more 
which Ryouma gladly gives.

Ru asks where they'll go next and Emma note that the Photonic 
Institute is close by which means Kouji, Sayaka and Boss are next on 
the list. Ryouma wonders if Kouji's fine and Tetsuya note that 
Kouji's always peppy and happy which Hayato adds gives Sayaka a lot 
of headache sometime. Suddenly the Agama team is contacted by Noin 
of the Preventers. Noin contacts them to inform them of some strange 
happenings, it seems that something had caused military troops to go 
berserk and kill their own allies. This shocks everybody and Noin 
says that the cause is unknown for now. Folker wonders if it's the 
Shura's doing and Quattro note that it might be a result of some 
super weapon an enemy faction developed to use against the Feds. 
Noin says that they are rushing to find the cause but since there 
are no survivors, it makes things a bit difficult so they've 
quarantined the place where the massacre occurred thinking it's a 
virus since it's more probable than something that caused mass 
hypnosis on the troops. Emma asks what the Feds are doing with this 
situation and Noin says that they have contracted out to a company 
to do the research and investigation. Bright tells Noin to contact 
them if she has further information. Tetsuya thinks that it has to 
be the work of some enemy causing mass hypnosis since he's never 
heard of a virus being capable of this though Hayato isn't too sure 
since it could be a new virus strain (a mutation or a biological 
weapon) Another alarm went off and Emma says that it's a call from 
the Feds, some unknown enemy is attacking Tokyo. Folker note that 
they've finally appeared though Emma says that they haven't confirm 
it's the Shura yet.

Folker asks Bright what they're going to do and Bright says that 
they'll have to respond. Tetsuya wonders if the Shura REALLY just 
wanted a fight with them since if that's so, all they have to do is 
attack the Agama. Folker note that that's so but from a strategic 
perspective, it might be more beneficial for the Shura to lure the 
team to a more advantageous location. Whatever the case, the team is 
headed for Tokyo and Kouji and gang will have to wait.

Episode 2B (Mazinger Z chosen first)

Sayaka and Boss are catching their breath after being chased by an 
army of Kikaijuu and Sayaka wonders if they've lost them. She 
wonders why of all time today did Kouji had to take his studies 
seriously. The Kikaijuus appears and surrounds them and Boss wonders 
what they should do. Sayaka note that they can't run towards the 
Photonic lab since that'll put Dr. Yumi and everyone in danger so 
Boss note that they have to duke it out with the Kikaijuu but 
suddenly Kouji's voice rings out "Sorry to keep you waiting, guys" 
"Mazin-Go, Pilder On." Mazinger Z arrives to take care of the 
Kikaijuus. The battle begins and even more Kikaijuu pops out which 
makes Sayaka wonder that the amount is a bit abnormal. Boss note 
that they took out Dr. Hell already so why are there so much and 
Kouji says he don't know but they have to fight them all. Sayaka 
note that at this rate they'll be overwhelmed and Boss starts to 
panic again but Kouji shouts at him "You idiot, we've been through 
worse than this and came out all right" On cue the Agama team 
arrives to back the team up. Judo and Camille greets Kouji saying 
it's been a while and Folker ask if this world also has this many 
internal strife within it and if this sort of savagery is also here 
on this Earth. Emma says that the Kikaijuus are unmanned, they're AI 
controlled which is a bit of an alien concept for Folker and Quattro 
says that they do as they're ordered to but it's time to cut the 
chit chat and fight. Folker can't believe that there's a world where 
you just order machine to fight for you. The Mazinger team and the 
Agama team defeats the Kikaijuus.

Bright fills the Mazinger team in on what they know about Folker and 
the Shura Army and Kouji gladly offers his help. Folker asks "I've 
been meaning to ask... is this REALLY an army?" Emma says that it is 
and asks why back. Folker says "Warriors easily agreeing to help 
another's cause just like that is weird enough but you people don't 
even have the killer instinct ingrained into you" Riina says that 
this ship and team is special like that. Emma suddenly receives an 
urgent transmission from the Combattler Team. It seems that they've 
discovered the Campbell's main base on Earth and are moving in to 
attack it. Bright decides to go assist Hyouma and the Combattler 
team.

Episode 3B

At the Campbell's main base, Garuda is lamenting to Mia, his 
destroyed female robot assistant that if he had known sooner that HE 
TOO is also a robot then he would have been able to return her love 
for him. Garuda blames this on the true Campbell like his mother. 
The Combattler V arrives ready to take out the Campbell's main base 
and Hyouma says that today he will defeat all of the Campbell forces 
on Earth. Juuzou says that goes for him too so why don't Hyouma let 
him pilot the Combattler just this once but Kosuke and Daisaku tells 
the two to stop bickering since they have to combine their heart as 
one for the final battle. Chizuru agrees saying that her dead 
grandfather, Combattler's creator Dr. Nanbara is probably watching 
over them so that this day would come where they would emerge 
victorious. Oleana appears and says that today is Combattler V's 
final day and deploys the Magma Beast. Hyoum and co. didn't think 
that there'd be THIS much left but it's befitting a final battle. 
The battle start and the Agama team arrives to help. Hyouma and the 
others fill them in that the big statue Oleana is the last boss and 
Bright deploys the team.

Ru note that Oleana looks like a Goddess but Kouji says that he'll 
take it out with the Mazinger though Sayaka tells him not to 
underestimate it. Daisaku and Kosuke say that's right considering 
the firepower Oleana has. Folker asks if statues of this world have 
a will of their own Camille says that it's special. Folker ask if 
it's ok to destroy it and Oleana says that she'll be the one doing 
the killing here with her Nalmag Beam.
Oleana is beaten by Combattler V but she says that she is not done 
for yet and calls for Garuda and Garuda appears. Chizuru note that 
Garuda seems a bit strange today. Oleana calls for Garuda to help 
out but Garuda then tells Oleana to make her peace and attacks her. 
Oleana ask if he's gone crazy but Garuda says that he is doing 
what's best for Campbell. Oleana ask if he's crazy enough to kill 
his own mother but Garuda says that he no longer consider her his 
mother and what's left for him is to fight on for Campbell itself. 
Garuda reveals the truth that he knows he is a robot like Mia, his 
destroyed assistant and he will stake his life as a robot against 
Combattler V. Hyouma and the Combattler team can't believe it as 
Oleana is finished off by Garuda. Garuda says that the talking 
statue is gone, now they face him but Hyouma is still a bit 
perplexed and ask Garuda to explain but Garuda is having none of 
that as he starts to attack.


Hyouma defeats Garuda and tells him to eject from his mech and the 
Combattler team agree since he's lost the battle, he doesn't need to 
lose his life but Garuda says that he is content to have fought them 
as a real Campbellian would have, right to the end which made 
Chizuru ask if what he said just right now means that he isn't one. 
Garuda confirms it saying that it's true that he is a robot. Garuda 
tells Hyouma and the Combattler team that this is a battle with no 
hate behind them, a fair fight to the end. He only wishes that he 
had realized things sooner before Mia had been destroyed.

Folker note that pride alone isn't capable of changing things, he 
wonder what is necessary in order to break free of the cycle of 
tragedies. Hyouma muse that he wished that he and Garuda had met 
under different circumstances and Folker agrees that Garuda was a 
very prideful warrior even if what he believed in was incorrect. 
Chizuru note that with this, the battle with the Campbell is over 
and Bright tells the Combattler team of the situation with the Shura 
and more and how he wants the Combattler to join forces with them 
once more. Hyouma agrees saying that Combattler V was built to 
protect the Earth against all threats to peace.

Emma note that the Shura are nowhere to be found ever since the raid 
on Jaburo and Folker note that they're probably gathering their 
forces which makes Kouji ask what's up with that. Folker says that 
the Shura don't just fight for the sake of it but they fight to win 
which makes it very important that they gather THEIR forces up first. 
Bright says that next on the list is Great Mazinger and Camille note 
that they'll have quite a power boost with Tetsuya at their side.

Kouji note that it's been a while since he met up with Tetsuya and 
Sayaka says that the last time was during that great battle and the 
Combattler team also note that it's been a while for them too since 
they were focused on the Campbell problem. Noin contacts them to 
inform them of some strange happenings, it seems that something had 
caused military troops to go berserk and kill their own allies. This 
shocks everybody and Noin says that the cause is unknown for now. 
Folker wonders if it's the Shura's doing and Quattro note that it 
might be a result of some super weapon an enemy faction developed to 
use against the Feds. Noin says that they are rushing to find the 
cause but since there are no survivors, it makes things a bit 
difficult so they've quarantined the place where the massacre 
occurred thinking it's a virus since it's more probable than 
something that caused mass hypnosis on the troops. Emma asks what 
the Feds are doing with this situation and Noin says that they have 
contracted out to a company to do the research and investigation. 
Bright tells Noin to contact them if she has further information. 
The Combattler team wonders if it really is a virus and Chizuru says 
that it could be a brainwashing technique that the enemy has and so 
on. Hyouma wonders if THEY'RE safe from it and Kouji note that 
they'll have to wait for the Preventer's results. An alarm went off 
and Emma says that it's a call from the Feds; some unknown enemy is 
attacking Tokyo. Folker note that they've finally appeared though 
Emma says that they haven't confirm it's the Shura yet.

Folker asks Bright what they're going to do and Bright says that 
they'll have to respond. Kouji is up for it though Sayaka wonder if 
it's really the Shura Army since from what she's heard, they wanted 
a fight with the team's Super Robot and Kosuke note that in that 
case it's better for the Shura to target the Agama itself. Folker 
note that that's so but from a strategic perspective, it might be 
more beneficial for the Shura to lure the team to a more 
advantageous location. Whatever the case, the team is headed for 
Tokyo and Tetsuya and gang will have to wait.




Episode 4

In Tokyo, mysterious enemies are wrecking havoc and a young girl 
named Hitomi wonders just what is going on. Suddenly she feels a 
warm wind blowing past her. In a distant land, Balgas asks Lord Van 
if he has completed his preparation for the hunt and he believes 
that Lord Van will definitely slay the Dragon in this sacred ritual. 
Van says that's enough, he won't show his back to the enemy. Hitomi 
wonders what is that vision she just saw, is it a dream?

Meanwhile, the Agama team has arrived and Folker note that it's not 
the Shura that are attacking the place. This means a new enemy 
faction though whoever they are, the Agama team is ready to repel 
them and Bright orders the team to deploy. Benkei note that these 
machines are not targeting military complex but out to decimate 
everything which makes Folker quite angry at this wanton destruction 
and he's not the only one. Hitomi sees that the Feds have arrives 
and she better evacuate to a safe place.

The battle seems to be going well for the Agama team but suddenly 
the Titans remnant consisting of Jerid, Yazan and a couple more 
appears. Jerid says that he's finally found Camille who asks if 
Jerid is still alive after all this. Jerid says that he won't die 
until he killed Camille. Fa says that Earth's under attack from 
unknown enemies though that doesn't matter to Jerid, killing Camille 
is all that matters to him. Judo is also surprised to see Yazan 
still here and tells Tetsuya that he met Yazan back when he tried to 
steal the Z Gundam in the old days. Yazan of course remembers Judo 
and how because of Judo's little betrayal, he lost his chance of 
stealing the Z Gundam and he's here to get a little revenge on the 
Agama team. Folker note that even in this world, there are those 
that think like this. They're such a stupid and pitiful group to be 
fighting for the sake of revenge and their own hate. Jerid says that 
the time for talk is over and for Camille to die.

Jerid attacks Camille and Camille asks why Jerid is willing to go to 
such length and Jerid says that he has become someone that won't be 
able to move on if he doesn't defeat Camille who's a stumbling block 
for him, to him Camille is this obstacle that he must overcome. 
Camille retorted that that's a pretty selfish thinking which comes 
from thinking in terms of only win and lose in war. Jerid says 
that's right which is why he has thrown away everything else in 
order to win. (Methink Jerid is still sore about Camille killing his 
girlfriend.)

Meanwhile at where Hitomi is, Van appears wondering where this place 
is and Hitomi recognized him as the person from her dream. Bright 
wonder if it's a new enemy and Folker note that the way that person 
appeared is like how he came to this world. Van asks if they are the 
inhabitants of the demon world which Quattro wonder what that is but 
Hitomi says that they are not to which Emma note that a civilian is 
still in the area. Judo asks who Van is and Van retort that he is 
Van Fanel of Fanelia and suddenly he note that it has come and tells 
the girl to run since the Earth Dragon is coming. Another light 
flickers in and Folker note that this is definitely how he came to 
this world and Hitomi says that she feels ill from this. The Earth 
Dragon appeared and Van leads it away from Hitomi saying that it's 
fight is with him and to come eat HIM.

Jerid is defeated by Camille and he screams "Why, why can't I win? 
What is it that I'm lacking here?"  Quattro says that as long as he 
lets his emotions overwhelms him in battle, he'll never win against 
them. Yazan gets shot down by Judo and Judo tells him to make his 
peace though Yazan is not ready to die yet and retreats which makes 
Folker think what Yazan and Jerid is about which is vengeance and 
hate.

Van also defeats the Earth Dragon which ended the battle. Judo and 
the others are curious about Van and his fighting with an ACTUAL 
Dragon though Jun says that she's a bit sadden that an animal like 
it was killed. Folker asks where Van came from which Van tells 
Folker that he is without manner to speak to him that way. Everyone 
ask Folker what's up and Folker says that the way Van appear is 
similar to how he appeared on this world which the team took to mean 
that Van is also from another world. Van asks what are they talking 
about and Bright ask if he notice that flash when he appeared here? 
Van noted that he had been fighting the Earth Dragon when he was 
enveloped in a flash and appeared here which Folker note is the same 
as when he was fighting the Shura. Judo wonder if the conditions are 
just fighting on another world will transport them here which Folker 
says that that's probably not it.

Quattro note that there might be some sort of connection and Bright 
asks Van what this Earth Dragon is like. Van asks if there aren't 
any around here since in Fanelia, you have to slay one for the 
Energy stone in order to become King. Riina asks if it's that red 
orb he's carrying and Van note wonders how they can move their 
Guymelefs (spelling) without an Energy stone. Suddenly another flash 
from the Energy stone envelopes them all along with Hitomi.

In another world, Ni wonder if another bunch of Upper worlder has 
been summoned again and Marbel says that it looks like it. Kin 
suddenly note that the thing summoned is an "Aura Ship" and quite a 
large one too, how can they move something like that? Ni note that 
it IS quite big, did Silky really summon something like this? Kin 
doesn't believe that Silky has this amount of power in her. Marbel 
note that these are Federation robots along with many unknowns. Ni 
note that they are in good fortune to have found Upper Worlder 
machines before Drake, if they can get these people on their side 
then they'll have a chance. Marbel says that she'll try to persuade 
them once they come to and she wonders if Drake already knows about 
these people. Charm complains of Drake using the E Ferario's power 
to bring all those Upper worlder here to Byston Well, Upper worlders 
can go back to the Upper World. Kin scolds Charm as Charm realize 
and apologize to Marbel who is also an Upper Worlder who was 
summoned here.

Meanwhile in an unknown place, a mysterious figure ask if they 
cannot yet make contact with their army and his subordinate says 
that Lord Fernando, Lord Meigis, Lord Alties and Lord Magnus, their 
commanders had suddenly disappeared and Lord Misaru, their advisor 
is also missing. The mysterious figure then says that Misaru is 
certainly no where to be found because of his ambitions. With great 
power comes great ambition and the mysterious figure then ask if the 
subordinate want great ambition of his own to which the figure says 
that he will think about it. The mysterious figure then says that to 
just think over it means he will never have one and just to continue 
trying to locate the various commanders. Once the subordinate leave, 
the mysterious figure note that he better heal his wounds fast, 
there's still a lot to do.

Back at Byston Well, Bright asks everyone if they're ok, they seem 
to be on some mountain and Emma is trying to raise the Federation. 
Judo wonder what that light was and Van says that if he can't see 
the Mystic Moon then this isn't Gaia and asks the inhabitant of the 
Mystic Moon (the Agama team) what they just did? Fa says they did 
nothing, the light came from that rock he was holding and Van is 
surprised to see the Energy stone having this type of power. Marbel 
then approaches them asking if they're ok now and she is Marbel 
Frozen. As hard as it is to believe, they're aren't on Earth anymore 
but a place called Byston Well, the land between the Earth and the 
sea.

Marbel explains that there was an earthquake several days ago and 
since then, upper worlders summoning has become easier and more 
frequent. Ni introduces himself as Ni Kibun from the Ar country who 
fights Drake and he asks if the Agama team will lend them their 
strength. Charm flies by and asks if he wasn't going to leave this to 
Marbel.  Ru and the others are surprised to see a fairy flying around 
and Marbel says that they are called Ferario in Byston Well. Bright 
notes that this seals it that they're definitely not on the "upper 
world"; and notes that their best recourse is to find a way home.

Van himself also note that after all the trouble he went to to get an 
Energy stone, he has to hurry back to Fanelia with it. Marbel hasn't 
heard of Fanelia before and suddenly Hitomi makes herself known which 
surprised everyone that Hitomi was also swept into all this. Bright 
asks for her name which is Kansaki Hitomi and says that they'll ensure 
her for the duration though whether they get back or not is another 
matter. Tetsuya note that the power of that rock brought them here so 
it should be able to send them back though Van has no idea how to use 
it to send them back, he might have a clue if they can get to Fanelia 
and get some people working on it. Marbel says that there IS a way 
here to send them back to the surface. She doesn't know how they were 
summoned to Byston Well but in her case it was with the power of an E 
Ferario. Camille ask if they can just ask Charm to send them back but 
Ni says that it's beyond Charm's power and Marbel says that Charm is a 
Mi Ferario which has Charm pouting angrily. (I.e. different class of 
Ferario)

Bright asks where an E Ferario is then and Ni says that Silky Mao, an 
E Ferario is captured by Drake and if they can rescue her then she can 
send the team back home. Bright note that's why Marbel and Ni want the 
team's help. Marbel says that Drake has been summoning upper worlder 
and breaking the balance within this world to further pursue his 
ambitions so she's fighting to stop it. Van doesn't really care since 
he wants to go back to Fanelia and Ru asks if he has a way. Van says 
that this Energy stone came from the Earth Dragon of Fanelia so he may 
be able to use it to send himself back home since it is the proof of 
being a King. Emma asks if Van is a king though Van says that he has 
not been approved and coronated yet. He's sorry that he involved them 
in this trial of his and if he gets back to Fanelia, he'll find some 
way to send them back home. Quattro asks Bright what they should do 
and Bright note that  they have an option right here and they have to 
take it since there's lots to do up on their world.

Camille says that Van doesn't seem to be able to use the stone though 
Van is adamant that he'll use it since Balgas and the others are 
waiting for his return. Suddenly a light begins to flicker, the same 
as in Tokyo and Hitomi is surprised as to why her pendant is also 
suddenly glowing. Charm is surprised as everyone and their machines 
are beginning to fade away and Ni note that they are being pulled to 
another place. Marbel regret them going away saying that they could 
have used the help.

The team find themselves in another place and Van says "Thank god" 
Everyone is surprised as to why the Earth is seen up in the sky. Van 
note that they're talking about the mystic moon and that maybe they 
can go back there directly in their ship though Hitomi says that 
that's impossible. Anyhow Van is back in Gaia and in Fanelia and Judo 
note that they should try to use the Agama to travel back to the 
Earth.This is Folker's first time in seeing the Earth from outside. 
Emma tells Judo that's impossible since the "Earth" isn't really 
there; it's just an image of it. Camille says that that's 
disappointing but it really is a mysterious place, this Gaia.

Judo note that Van's purpose is fulfill and Van promise that he'll 
find a way to use the stone to send them home though Hitomi wondered 
why her pendant was glowing. Folker tells him to hurry up since they 
don't have time to waste. Bright tells Folker that he's not the only 
one that wants to go home and not to be too emotional over it. Van 
note that they might as well heads toward Fanelia.

Episode 5

Near Fanelia, the Acrobunch team is activating Acrobunch. The kids 
wonder where they are and Tatsuya says that wherever it is, it feels 
quite romantic and adventurous. Ryou note that for Dad, he can go 
without eating if the place is romantic and adventurous. Reika note 
that they were in Tokyo to do some shopping for supplies when this 
bright light hits them and sends them here. Hiro notes that there are 
unknown species of life walking around nearby which pirks Jun's 
interest. Miki asks if Reika bought all the things they need but Reika 
says that there was a battle going on so she fled back to the 
Acrobunch at once. Ryou wonder if they have to start this adventure by 
finding food to eat and Hiro note that they might be able to catch 
some fish in the river. Reika doesn't like fish that much but Jun says </pre><pre id="faqspan-2">
that this isn't time for like and dislike.

Suddenly the Goblin tribe arrive lead by Commander Sheila and Kuroiji 
who says that whatever tricks they use, they won't be able to slip 
past the Goblin tribe that easily. Hiro and the others wonder if they 
were tailed but C.Sheila says that there was a reading of the 
Kuwashika that pops up indicating that it was in Tokyo. Miki is 
perplexed as to why something like the Kuwashika can be in a city like 
Tokyo. (Hate to tell you lady but Precious like that seems to be all 
over Tokyo. Why, just go to SGS Museum, there's your reading.)

Tatsuya note that the Goblin tribe seemed to have gotten info about 
the Kuwashika being in Tokyo and then getting send here may be 
connected i.e. there may be a gate in Tokyo sending them to where the 
Kuwashika is so it's worth searching this place a bit. Kuroiji says 
that they'll kill the Acrobunch team first and then search themselves.  
Which mean it's fight time for GouGou Sentai Boukenger...I mean 
Acrobunch.

As the battle rage, C.Sheila is infuriated that their underlings can't 
defeat Acrobunch but Kuroiji suddenly tells Sheila that there's a 
Kuwashika reading and C.Sheila then note that they have to get their 
hands on it and retreat. Hiro note that the Goblin Tribe are as 
prepared as ever. Miki note that they should get down to eating then 
but Jun says that's not it. Tatsuya agrees that they can't let the 
Kuwashika fall into the Goblin Tribe's hand and thus the Acrobunch 
leaves to pursue them.

Meanwhile, in Fanelia not far away, Emma notes that the reading is 
gone, she thought she detected a battle going on nearby but Judo and 
Camille doesn't seem to find anything on their end. Van says that that 
can't be since Fanelia is quite peaceful and Bright note that it's 
Van's country so they'll do as he instructs. Meruru, a cat girl greets 
Van saying that she was quite worried for him and Van then shows 
Balgas the energy stone from the Earth Dragon that he slays as proof 
of his passing of the ritual which draws great cheering from the 
populace.

Suddenly however, there is a blast at the gate of Fanelia and various 
explosions began to erupt all over the town. The Fanelian soliders 
note that they are under attack and begins an evacuation of the women 
and children. Balgas tells the team that they will handle this and 
orders the deployment of the troops. When Van asks what he should do, 
Balgus tells him to go to the place where Escaflowne is kept, should 
the worst happen, Lord Van must escape with the Escaflowne. 

Meanwhile the troops are quite angry at the unseen attackers and 
demands they show themselves and then in a fluke manage to strike the 
unseen enemy and reveal it as a Guymelef. Deilando note that his 
subordinate was careless, he has no use for talentless people like him 
but since he's shown himself, it's time to reveal themselves and burn 
everything to the ground.

Of course the Fanelian soliders are no match for Deilando's troops and 
gets slaughtered. Meanwhile, Van proclaims to Escaflowne "I am Van 
Fanel, the new ruler of Fanelia, I wish to enter a blood contract with 
you Escaflowne, it is time to awake, Dragon." Ru asks what is Van 
doing and Van says that he will go fight in the Escaflowne which 
surprises everyone. The Escaflowne emerges and Hitomi note that this 
is the Escaflowne, it seems that she's seen it before somewhere. Van 
tells the team to go hide but Quattro says that this may be another 
world but they're not going to stand by and let a city burn to the 
ground without giving it their best shot at defending it.

Tetsuya wonders just who are the enemies and Van says that since 
they're using Guymelefs, they're probably soliders from another 
country invading this land. Camille notes that the power of the mant 
these Guymelefs have are quite impressive. Even Upper Earth's 
technology can't duplicate a cloaking field like that. Fa asks if this 
world is also constantly at war but Van says that war hadn't occur in 
a long while and he's never seen these Mant before. Ryouma wonders 
what the cause of the attack is and Hayato pegs it as trying to take 
over while the new king is away. Folker note that even in this world, 
there are those who finds pleasure in fighting and killing and causing 
it to happen. Anyhow, Bright notes that they have to do their best 
even though the enemies are nothing like they've faced before.

The battle goes quite hard for the Agama team since the power of the 
enemies' Guymelefs' mants allows them to easily dodge the team's 
projectile weapons and close combat is the only options against them 
though they are strong in close combat.

However the team prevails but then Deilando appears at Van's palace 
asking his troops how long they're going to take. The troops 
apologized, saying that there are unknown types amongst the Fanelian 
soliders. It was then that Balgus attacks Deilando's Guymelef by 
himself and tells Van to take the team and retreat. Van says that he 
won't show the enemy his back (i.e. retreat) but Bright says that if 
they stay here, they're liable to be attacked further and Camille 
added that they have to reassess the situation from far away. At their 
urging, Van relented and tells the team of the mountains to where they 
can each retreat and regroup. Deilando deploys more troops to stop the 
team from running away but Balgas tries to stop them and got fatally 
wounded. Balgas tells Van to escape with the Escaflowne and one day 
rebuilt Fanelia and gather it's people back here. Balgas's last words 
were "Godspeed, Lord Van."

Suddenly there is a flash and once Van gathers himself, he notice that 
they're still in Gaia. Bright ask if everyone is still here and Emma 
note that Hitomi is missing. Bright orders a search at once and Van 
wonders if Hitomi was sent to another place. Actually she's not too 
far away but they both don't know that and Hitomi is wandering the 
place alone and scared wondering where to go next which is when a 
stalker type jumps her. Van hears Hitomi's voice nearby and leads the 
team in her direction.

Meanwhile Hitomi is struggling against her captor when a voice rang 
out "You again, begone Varlet.I will not let you harm an innocent 
girl." Hitomi's saviour is named Allen and like a gentleman, he asks 
Hitomi if she was harmed but the ordeal proves a bit much for Hitomi 
and she faints in Allen's arm which is when the team arrives. Of 
course Van and the other believed Allen is the one who harmed Hitomi 
and Allen's demeanour against them certainly doesn't help this 
misunderstanding. Van draws his sword and engages Allen in a sword 
duel but Allen is certainly his better and renders him unconscious. 
Bright and the rest of the team arrived but Allen manage to clear up 
this misunderstanding when he shows them Hitomi's assaulter running 
away like a scared rabbit.

Allen invites them back to his camp/fortress that he's stationed at to 
talk and finds the story of the team coming from a parallel dimension 
a bit hard to believe though if the King of Fanelia says so then he'll 
have to swallow it. Judo asks what they should do next and Hitomi says 
that they should find a way to return home Allen asks Hitomi's name 
and note that it's a beautiful name. Anyhow, Van apologize for 
appearing in Allen's country's territory without warning but can he 
let them out now? Allen asks Van where he wants to go which is of 
course Fanelia. Allen says that it's pointless since Fanelia had been 
burned to the ground. Van is in shock and can't believe it though 
Folker asks how Allen knows about that since it's barely two days 
since it happened and Allen says that sadly, their source nearby 
(Merchants from his country close to Fanelia) confirms it. Allen wants 
to know what happened since he might be able to help. Meruru the cat 
girl comes and hugs Van, she was rescued by those merchants after 
fleeing Fanelia and she confirms the torching of Fanelia, the death of 
many people they knew and the remnants of Fanelia scattering to 
various other countries to escape. She's been searching for Van 
afterward.

Ryouma is angry at himself, if only they hadn't try to retreat but 
Hayato tells Ryouma to let it go since it's not their fault. Suddenly 
Hitomi tells everyone to run, she sense that the enemies are coming 
here. She can see it happening like it happened in Fanelia. Allen says 
that Hitomi must be tired but Van asked if she saw Fanelia in ruins 
before and Hitomi says that she saw the image of a giant coming to 
burn things into flame. Bright asks why she didn't say anything before 
this?

Hitomi says that she wasn't sure before but ever since she was little, 
she's had this premonition ability and it's been growing stronger ever 
since she arrived on this world. Quattro note that it's hard to 
believe premonition but the odds of those enemies appearing are quite 
high. Bright note that just in case, they'd better prepare to sortie.

Afterward, Meruru is quite possessive of Van against Hitomi and swipes 
her pendant running away with it. Meanwhile Van and Allen are sparring 
against each other with Allen still being Van's better but Allen then 
note that they have a guest when Meruru comes in being chased by 
Hitomi. Being quite mischievous, Meruru says she doesn't want the 
pendant anymore and goes to cling to Van which annoys Hitomi. Folker 
then comes in saying that he's curious about something. If you're not 
as skilled as your opponent, is rage the only thing you can used to 
pit against them? Van says that he doesn't like this observation 
Folker made and Meruru jealously tells Folker that there's no way he 
can win against Van. Allen tells Folker that the rage that Folker felt 
Van has may be more towards himself than towards the enemy for being 
in this state.

Van then asks Folker "What about you? What do you think I should have 
done when that light enveloped us?" "Balgas and everyone is dead but 
I'm still alive, what should I do?" Folker replies "Maybe fight, but 
then again you're a King" Allen adds "And that's why you're so angry 
and hurting right now" Van turns to leave as Folker continues "A King 
leads and governs." (ie. A King cannot just go and die fighting just 
like that, they're supposed to think about their people first and in 
Fanelia's case, retreating was the wiser option )Folker then thinks 
"As I thought, that person's way is wrong."

Episode 6

Bright is surprised that Hitomi's prediction came true and enemies do 
appear but Allen says that he's never seen these type of Guymelef 
before, especially flying one. Are these the one that attacked Fanelia 
but Folker says that these weren't there. Folker then thinks to 
himself "Weird, what is this power I feel coming from these enemies?" 
Allen demands to know who they are and why they are attacking this 
place and the enemies says that they are the Drake army and it's best 
if Allen and everyone surrender nice and peacefully or they will be 
annihilated. Quattro is surprised, isn't Drake the name of that 
powermonger's in Byston Well that they were asked to fight against. 
Benkei wonders why they're attacking and Ryouma wonders if they were 
also sent to this world like they are but Hayato doesn't think so. If 
they WERE also sent here like the team then they'd have to be 
wondering where they are first but if they're attacking to conquer, 
that means they have a way to transport themselves between worlds. 
Bright says that there's no time to speculate and asks Allen for 
permission to launch but Allen won't have the team risking themselves 
and deploys in his Guymelef, the Jerasad (spelling) but Bright 
launches his team anyway.

Nearby a mysterious person chuckles that this is just as planned, for 
fighting is in humanity's blood and with this the flames of war will 
spread.

Hitomi suddenly sensed that the invisible giants are here which 
surprised everyone but Bright tells everyone to be on alert since her 
prediction had come true before. No sooner had the words left Bright's 
mouth that the Guymelefs that destroyed Fanelia, Deilando and his 
troops appear. Allen realized them as Zaibach's Guymelef and tells 
everyone that it's a name of a very big country in this world. Ru 
wonders why that country would attack Fanelia and Van doesn't have any 
clue either. Deilando wonders why  the Dragon (Escaflowne) they are 
pursuing is fighting alongside the Guymelef of their Ally country and 
Allen asks what is the meaning of this, why have they annihilated 
Fanelia? Deilando denies any knowledge of this and says almost 
mockingly that maybe some Dragon burned the city to the ground or 
something which is fitting. This enraged Van and everyone. Judo note 
that it's because of people like Deilando that fighting doesn't end 
and Folker note that even in this world, there are scums like this.

The troops ask Deilando if it's all right with this incursion and 
attack in an Ally country but Deilando says that if they kill all 
witnesses, it's fine. Beside there's an unknown troop here so let's 
blame it on them. Meanwhile the mysterious person nearby chuckle "Heh 
heh,what fools, I don't even have to have a hand in it for them to 
fight each others. It's only a matter of time before I conquer this 
world." The battle continues as Van and Allen attacks Deilando. Allen 
comment that Deilando isn't half bad and Deilando is delighted that 
Allen is quite good, he'll kill him. Allen says that he doesn't 
exactly want to be killed but Deilando says to give him a good hunting 
while he last. Van on the other hand gave Deilando a spanking he won't 
forget and Deilando screams about his face, his beautiful face being 
ruined and says that he won't forget this and he retreats.

Allen tells Deilando to wait but he is long gone and Allen note that 
someone like Deilando should be taken care of quickly before they 
become a major problem which Folker confirms to Van by saying that 
Deilando's eye shows a crazed blood thirsty maniac wanting revenge. 
Allen note that the time will come when Deilando strikes at them again.

Meanwhile the Aura Battler that Drake's force piloted is defeated and 
the pilot note "This is it" and the mysterious person then tells him 
"Good, then retreat, this is enough to fan the flame of war" The pilot 
whispered "Roger that" and then says to the team "We won't let things 
end like this" The mysterious person also note that he better retreat 
too. Allen wonders if the Aura Battler troops will attack again and 
Folker feels that the power he sensed before is gone, he wonders what 
it is?

Ru note that the camp/fortress was pretty banged up from the battle 
and Van apologized, if he hadn't come here then this wouldn't happened 
but Allen says that it's because Zaibach attacked Fanelia first. At 
the very least, they know now that this Drake Army is also targeting 
his country so Van doesn't have to apologize since it'd happened 
anyway. Camille wonders how they're going to attack and Judo note that 
if they're attacking that means that they can come and go between 
Byston Well and Gaia. Bright asks what Allen will do next as Allen 
ponders that this camp won't hold and Allen says that they should head 
for Fallus the capital of Astoria (his country)

Van says that he won't run, he will stay here and avenge the people of 
Fanelia fighting to his death but Allen says that choosing to die 
isn't bravery. "Van, you are Fanelia's King. As long as the King and 
his people survives, there will come a better day." Folker note 
Allen's word that choosing to die isn't bravery and note that he may 
have been behaving just like Van too. Folker wonder what that power he 
sensed was, he seems to have encountered something similar or exactly 
the same before but can't place it yet.

At Fallus, Princess Mirana says that she is quite surprised at Allen's 
sudden return. Allen introduce Van as Fanelia's King and Mirana says 
that she's met him once before when they were little children when she 
went to Fanelia. Allen introduced the team as being from a faraway 
country and Princess Mirana tells them to make themselves comfortable 
from their long trip. Fa wonders what they should do next and Van says 
that they should rest for now and Meruru note that Hitomi isn't with 
them which make everyone quite worried.

Episode 7

In the capital city Fallus, Hitomi screamed for someone to help her 
but her assailer says that in the depth of the river, no Guymelef can 
come to help her. The team sees an enemy Guymelef taking Hitomi under 
water and deploy but Bright tells them to be careful since they're 
battling inside the capital.  As for the mysterious assailer's 
previous remark, well he hadn't count on Getter Poseidon, did he? 
Benkei says to leave it to him though Hayato says that maybe they 
should use Lyger to catch up to the assailant's Guymelef. The 
assailant asks for backup which consist of Deilando and his troop. 
Folker note that Deilando's sickness is quite dangerous to let it be 
continued but Deilando says that if Folker is going to interfere 
between his fight with Van then he'll kill him first. Allen asks if 
Deilando's force were behind kidnapping Hitomi and Deilando says that 
they have a lot of questions for her. Allen says that he won't let 
Deilando's rampage continues.

Van tells Deilando to stop fighting here but Deilando says that the 
city will burn because Van is here and it's populace will die because 
Van is here. Of course Deilando gets beaten again and Folken tells 
Deilando to retreat since if he creates a bigger ruckus than this then 
it will alert the other countries. Van note that Deilando has 
retreated again and Allen note that if Deilando isn't taken care off 
quickly then he will prove to become a big problem. Bright says to 
focus on defending the city for now.

It seems that everything is under control when Jerid, Yazan and the 
Titans pops up. Jerid can't believe that he would find Camille here. 
Yazan says that they'll make this other world Camille's grave. Camille 
says that they shouldn't be fighting but trying to get back to their 
world together though both Yazan and Jerid doesn't care which world 
they are in as long as they can kill Camille and the Agama team.

Van and Benkei helped defeat the underwater Guymelef and it's pilot 
decides to flee and leave Hitomi behind when the mech is going to blow 
but Van rescued her and return her to the Agama. Yazan gets shot down 
again and Judo tells him to surrender but Yazan says that he'll never 
do that and retreat. Judo laments as to why people from the same world 
has to fight each other even in a parallel world. Jerid is also downed 
and he screams "And again I can't win?"Camille tells Jerid to let it 
end and work together with them to return back to their world but 
Jerid says that as long as he can kill Camille, he's happy. Camille 
asks what meaning is there to be stranded in a place you don't know 
but Jerid says that he'll think about it after killing Camille and 
he'll get him next time.

Folker note that Jerid is quite foolish for letting vengeance drives 
his life. It looks like the battle is over and Bright apologized, if 
they had never come here then this wouldn't have happened but Allen 
says that Deilando's troop attacked even though both their countries 
are on friendly terms so that's a clear violation. Van says that even 
so, they're after him so it's his fault but Meruru says that they were 
the one who attacked Fanelia in the first place. Tetsuya note that for 
them to mount an attack in a country that's their ally to get to the 
team must mean they want something extremely bad from Van. Riina 
wonder why they're after Van so much and Allen note that at first he 
thought it's because Van is a survivor from Fanelia but it may be that 
they're after the Escaflowne. Quattro note that the Escaflowne is 
quite legendary isn't it?

Van says that ancient text in Fanelia only describe how to pilot it 
and Quattro note that there may be some sort of secret hidden in the 
Escaflowne and the Zaibach Empire knows about it. Allen says that he 
must report this to his King and tells everyone to rest up.

Afterward, Quattro note that Allen's face says that he's not bringing 
good news and Allen apologize saying that the King does not want their 
country and it's people to get embroiled in this conflict. Folker says 
that can't be helped since there are probably lots of factors 
affecting the King's decision. Van says that Allen has done enough for 
them; he'll leave so this country doesn't get attacked. Allen says 
that furthermore, a representative of the Zaibach Empire has also come 
requesting the team be handed over to them which infuriates the team 
since the Zaibach attacked first and then tried this. Tetsuya note 
that they must be pretty powerful to make such a demand and expect 
everyone to kowtow to them. Bright note that they can't stay here much 
longer then and Camille ask what they should do next since they know 
very little about this world.

Hitomi ask if she could read the fortune of the team and predict what 
they should do next and Meruru is quite skeptical about it which makes 
Hitomi ask what does Meruru have against her anyway? Judo notes that 
they might as well since they don't know what to do. Hitomi says that 
she'll predict the future based on dowsing and they should go where 
the pendant she is using for this task points to. Allen note that it's 
pointing towards the country of Freid
.
Meanwhile the mysterious person from last ep chuckles that he has 
gained a pretty useful power and with it he can send the world of Gaia 
into war. Another mysterious person who masqueraded as the Drake army 
apologizes for not completing his objective but the mysterious person 
forgives him since he has found something much more useful. It seems 
that Folker is amongst their enemy, he can be used to spread the 
flames of war. He will use this power to call Folker and his army to 
where they are.

Back to where Folker and everyone are; Bright asks Allen if he is fine 
with his decision to accompany the team and Allen says that while the 
King doesn't want to see the danger that Zaibach possessed, he's 
curious about what's happening. Ryouma says that they don't know 
either except they're being sent to various parallel worlds. Van 
apologize for bringing them here in the first place but Quattro says 
that they learn in Byston Well that the rift between dimension seems 
easier to cross so something weird is going on within each worlds. 
Hitomi then tells Bright to change course immediately since if they 
continue on this course, they'll be engulfed. 

Bright doesn't know what Hitomi is talking about but Hitomi says that 
it's too late as a flash overwhelms them and Folker wonders where 
they'll be taken THIS time.

Meanwhile, Deilando's troop is also being engulfed by the flash as 
they were pursuing Van's group into Freid and now they've lost them. 
Deilando complains "Just where are we anyway?" Deilando then orders 
his troop to try and find Van's group again.

Episode 8

The team is startled to find themselves in a battlefield after being 
engulfed by the light. Emma note that it seems to be the Drake army 
against a small group and Fa wonders if they've returned to Byston 
Wells. The small group in question is Marbel and Ni's group and Kin 
note that it's the Aura Battleship from before and Charm wonder if 
it's been called back here again? Marbel note that they're a sight for 
sore eye since her group desperately needs backup right now and asks 
the team to help out and Bright orders everyone to deploy.

Quattro note that Marbel's group seems to have gotten themselves into 
quite a jam and Camille note that it's borderline suicide trying to 
pick a fight against that much enemies from the Drake Army with just 
that number of people on her side. Shou then says that there were 
suppose to be reinforcement from Elv. Marbel introduces Shou as 
another upperworlder like them that was called to Byston Well. Anyhow 
Charm says to shut the chit chat and pitch in quick and Quattro says 
he got THAT loud and clear.

The battle begins and Folker note that they seemed a little 
"different" than the Drake army that the team had fought before in 
Gaia, he doesn't feel the same type of power behind them. Tetsuya says 
that he doesn't feel any type of power back then coming from them. 
Shou asks if they've fought the Drake army before and Allen explains 
that the Drake army had attacked Gaia. Ni says that can't be since 
they've marked Drake's activity for a while now, he certainly had no 
time to invade another world. Folker wonder if so, who were those 
people calling themselves the Drake army attacking Allen's place? 
Hitomi suddenly tells everyone to be careful since enemies are coming 
and Emma says that from the looks of it, it's Deilando and 
subordinates.

Deilando says that he's finally found Van and Van wonders if 
Deilando's been sent to this world also? Deilando asks what that meant 
and makes it spiffy since he's quite short on temper. Judo and the 
others say that they're not in Gaia anymore but Byston Wells. Not that 
it matter to someone like Deilando who says that he's only interested 
in killing Van and taking the Dragon.

Same goes likewise for Todd Guiness who is intent on settling things 
with Shou Zama. Shou note that the pilot in the other Dunbine should 
be Todd but the speed is quite different, could it be that Todd's Aura 
Power has increased? Todd says that Shou relied on his machine too 
much and he'll prove it....ah who is he kidding; Todd is downed quickly 
by Shou. Shou asks Todd why is he this eager to prove himself and Todd 
says that he can't afford anymore losses after coming to this world. 
Shou tells him to get out of his Dunbine, it's going to blow and Todd 
tells him to shut up before Todd's Dunbine blows up. Shou lament Todd 
since they both got summoned to Byston Well together. (He ain't dead 
Jim, he'll pop up in later episode to give you headaches)

Ban Burning, the commander of Drake's force here takes on Shou and 
note that this is the power of Shou and the Dunbine. He can't believe 
it since the Dunbine is JUST a prototype for their later Aura Battler 
which means that Shou's Aura power is stronger than he imagined. Ban 
is shot down and he says that he underestimated them. Shou asks if 
he's running away and Ban says that he cannot die here. Ni says 
regretfully that if they could kill Ban here, it would make their 
battle against Drake much easier. Marbel and Kin say to be thankful 
that they made him retreat and if the team hadn't popped up, they 
would be pushing up daisy by now.

Deilando is of course beaten again and he can't believe that he's 
received this much damage from the team. Van asks why Deilando is 
after Escaflowne and Deilando lets slip that it's all for Lord 
DornKirk, he'll retreat this time but he'll get them next time.

Ni note that they've driven off the Drake forces here which is a 
campwhich means they can attack Drake's production plant next but Shou 
tells him not to get too ambitious and be thankful that they beat the 
forces here at the camp . Ni says that he can't just let this chance 
go by but Marbel says that everyone's tired right now. Quattro note 
that the point is moot anyhow since more Drake forces have arrived. Ni 
regretfully notes that they have to retreat once again.

Later, Ni thanks the team for their help against Drake and Marbel note 
that there's some new mech with them which is the Escaflowne and 
Allen's Guymelef. Charm asks how they came back here and Camille 
relates how they were engulfed by the light during their journey in 
Gaia. Marbel says that if they have no objective for now, can the team 
lend them their strength? Quattro says that before that, can they tell 
them about Drake's army? Folker relate the story of the Drake army's 
attack on Allen's camp to Shou and the others. Ni note that Drake has 
not made any move against another world from the information they've 
gathered and Kin adds that while the barriers between dimensions are 
weaker than normal, Drake does not have a way to move freely amongst 
the dimension to a determined location so he definitely can't stage an 
attack on another world from Byston Wells. Quattro wonders who those 
people were then and Allen note that they did loudly announce 
themselves as the Drake army and they were using the same Aura 
Battlers as those used here.

Folker is deep in thought "Creating unrest by using other troops' 
machine and appearance... could it be...?" Allen note that they'll have to 
ask Drake himself which means that he's in to help Ni and the others. 
Bright also note that they're interested in the "Drake army" that 
attacks Allen's camp and since Drake may have a way to return them to 
the upper world, they might as well target him.

Meanwhile, Misaru introduces himself to Drake and wishes to offer his 
troops' services to Drake. Drake asks why Misaru comes to him instead 
of the Kingdom of Elv. Misaru says that there's no worth lending power 
to someone on the losing side. Drake asks if that's so, then why does 
he need Misaru's power since he's sure to win by himself?. Misaru says 
that that may be so against normal solider from Elv but there's a 
miracle group whose power Drake should do well not to underestimate. 
Drake says that he's read the report about the attack on one of his 
outpost and asks if Misaru knows of them?
Misaru says that his army's intelligence division is quite good. Drake 
notes that the upperworlder troops must also be a bother to Misaru and 
wants to know what he wants from him. Misaru says that he'll need some 
fundings and one of Drake's latest Aura Battler. Drake begrudgingly 
says that he'll give Misaru what he wants in exchange for fighting the 
team but that doesn't mean he trust him yet, bring him some results 
first.

Misaru note that with this, he's gotten enough firepower to accomplish 
his task and one of the latest machines from this world too, he can't 
help but chuckle a bit.

Back to where the team is, Allen is admiring Byston Well, he can't 
believe that it's another world. Benkei wonders why they're in another 
world with Ryouma and Hayato noting that Folker came to their world 
from his and now it seems that the same thing happened to them. Folker 
note that this world also had an Earthquake which seemed to make 
moving between worlds much easier. Quattro wonders if the Earthquake 
is really the root cause of all this. 

Charm comes in saying that Drake's forces are on the move to Elv which 
was supposed to have sent aid to Shou's group in attacking Drake's 
camp. Shou says that it's none of their beef then which gets Marbel 
quite angry but Shou retorted that they don't need to lend a hand to a 
Kingdom that doesn't follow through on their promises. Ni agrees with 
Shou saying that they could have died back there. Marbel asks if the 
two of them are allowing Drake's action and Shou says that it's not 
like that. Marbel says that they're fighting for a cause here and 
Folker ask if Ni and Shou aren't fighting to protect the land from 
Drake. Allen asks what they fight for.  Do they fight for a Kingdom 
that broke it's promise or rather to stop Drake's ambition? 

Ni and Shou think it over and apologize. Ni says that they should head 
for Elv immediately and he wants Shou and Kin to hurry on ahead


Ep4 Epilogue(Go fight Drake)

Bright agrees to help Ni go fight Drake and Marbel says that Drake has 
Aura Battler like robots and Doro fighter planes. With the team's help 
they SHOULD be able to defeat them. Suddenly Van's Energy stone 
flashes taking Van and Hitomi away to an unknown place. Bright could 
only hope that they went to the place they wanted to go.

Meanwhile at Drake's castle, Shou Zama has been summoned along with 
two others. Shot hopes that they could at least summon one more but it 
seems that Silky Mao is in pain and Drake tells them to stop it for 
now. Ban Burning is assigned the task of taking care of these new 
recruits but suddenly he spotted a Ferario, which is Charm spying on 
them. Charm escaped leaving Shou Zama wondering where he is. Ban tells 
Shou to come with him and he'll explain the situation and Shou ask 
what if he refuses. Galaria then tells him that Silky is too tired so 
even if he wants to, he can't go back to his surface world and laughs. 
Shou asks again what would happen if he refuses and Ban says that they 
will force him to comply to which Shou says that he won't take that 
lying down. Galaria tells Ban to stop and Ban note that the surface 
worlder are extremely brimming with Aura Power like they expected.

 Back to the Agama team, Marbel note that the Aura Road's light has 
died out which to Ni means that Drake has summon more surface worlder 
again and they've let them slip into his hands. Kin tells Ni that even 
so, those summoned might be like Marbel who refuse to submit to Drake. 
Bright ask if this Drake is planning on conquering this world and 
Marbel says that's right, originally Byston Well does not have the 
technology like the surface world for creating Aura Battler. It's like 
having a robot suddenly appear in Medieval Europe like Judo puts it. 
Marbel continues that the Aura Battler were created by Shot Weapon who 
brought surface world technology and know how with him when he was 
summoned. Camille remember Shot as a genius who's written many papers 
in the scientific community and Emma says that he was last reported as 
missing but she didn't think that he's here creating robots.

Folker note that even here there are those who use fighting in order 
to stop the fighting. Ni says that it's not like they like fighting, 
if only Rimuru's dad didn't think of such a thing and stopped then it 
wouldn't be like this.  Marbel says that Rimuru is Drake's daughter 
who is pretty much a close acquaintance of Ni. 

Folker says that Ni is thinking way too simplisticly to even think 
that he could change the way of thought of someone who has an ambition. 
Ni is furious shouting "What, how would a surface worlder like YOU 
know?" Folker then replies "Sorry but I'm a bit different from the 
others here."

Charm then fly in to tell everyone that three people were summoned and 
Bright note that it means that three people went missing on the 
surface world. Ni tells Bright that they'll attack tomorrow according 
to plan. Riina asks if it's to free the three people summoned here and 
Ni says that that's if all goes well, if they resist (i.e. sided with 
Drake) then ... Ru cuts him off and says that they should get to sleep 
then.

At Drake's Castle, Ban is showing the three new people, the Aura 
Battler known as the Drumro. Tokamaku note that the Aura Battler are 
really something and Todd Guiness asks if he can see the cockpit. Ban 
says that if they cooperate, they sure can and Todd agrees. Todd takes 
a look and note that it's quite simple to operate though Shou note 
that it can't be this simple. Ban tells Shou that surface worlder have 
a high amount of Aura Power which they can use on Aura Battler to move 
it like they think. Tokamaku note that even so, they should have to 
learn ways to drive this thing and Shou says that he really doesn't 
believe in this Aura Power and Ban says that it's there and will 
respond if he wishes to call on it. Todd is of course convinced to 
join up.
	
Episode 5B

At some place in Byston Well, the Acrobunch team is activating 
Acrobunch. The kids wonder where they are and Tatsuya says that 
wherever it is, it feels quite romantic and adventurous. Ryou note 
that for Dad, he can go without eating if the place is romantic and 
adventurous. Reika note that they were in Tokyo to do some shopping 
for supplies when this bright light hits them and sends them here. 
Hiro notes that there are unknown species of life walking around 
nearby which pirks Jun's interest. Miki asks if Reika bought all the 
things they need but Reika says that there was a battle going on so 
she fled back to the Acrobunch at once. Ryou wonder if they have to 
start this adventure by finding food to eat and Hiro note that they 
might be able to catch some fish in the river. Reika doesn't like fish 
that much but Jun says that this isn't time for like and dislike.

Suddenly the Goblin tribe arrive lead by Commander Sheila and Kuroiji 
who says that whatever tricks they use, they won't be able to slip 
past the Goblin tribe that easily. Hiro and the others wonder if they 
were tailed but C.Sheila says that there was a reading of the 
Kuwashika that pops up indicating that it was in Tokyo. Miki is 
perplexed as to why something like the Kuwashika can be in a city like 
Tokyo. (Hate to tell you lady but Precious like that seems to be all 
over Tokyo. Why, just go to SGS Museum, there's your reading.)

Tatsuya note that the Goblin tribe seemed to have gotten info about 
the Kuwashika being in Tokyo and then getting send here may be 
connected i.e. there may be a gate in Tokyo sending them to where the 
Kuwashika is so it's worth searching this place a bit. Kloizi says 
that they'll kill the Acrobunch team first and then search themselves.  
Which mean it's fight time for GouGou Sentai Boukenger...I mean 
Acrobunch.

As the battle rage, C.Sheila is infuriated that their underlings can't 
defeat Acrobunch but Kloizi suddenly tells Sheila that there's a 
Kuwashika reading and C.Sheila then note that they have to get their 
hands on it and retreat. Hiro note that the Goblin Tribe are as 
prepared as ever. Miki note that they should get down to eating then 
but Jun says that's not it. Tatsuya agrees that they can't let the 
Kuwashika fall into the Goblin Tribe's hand and thus the Acrobunch 
leaves to pursue them.

Afterward, Galaria arrives with Shou, Todd and Tokamaku for training 
with three new Aura Battlers called the Dunbine. Galaria swore that 
something was here just a minute ago. Todd says that the Dunbine is a 
piece of work even for his first time out. Shou says that Tokamaku 
isn't flying in formation like the rest, though Todd tells Shou not to 
act as if he knows everything about piloting a machine that drains 
your energy as fuel. Shot tells them that like he said before, the 
Aura Battler draws on Aura from the pilot and the pilot can increase 
their Aura through training. Todd asks why a Robot specialist like him 
thought of creating something like this anyway and Shot tells him to 
choose his words carefully since he's got a high rank here in Byston 
Wells.

The Agama team arrives and Galaria tells Shou and the others that 
they're enemies and to take the team out. Tokamaku and Todd are ready 
and so is Shou. Ni note that they're out testing a new model and 
Bright note that they'd better finish off the enemies here before 
reinforcement come.

Judo notes that the new recruits from the surface world are amongst 
the enemy troops, he'll try to disable them. Marbel tells the team not 
to underestimate the Aura Battlers since it operates on the pilot's 
Aura Power which means that it's strength varies according to how 
strong the pilot is. Folker says that it works on the same principle 
as his Iadabolt which surprises Marbel that there's something like it 
also on the surface world. Camille corrects Marbel saying that Folker 
is from another world entirely.

Ru says to cut the chit chat since they should focus on destroying the 
Aura Battler but making sure the pilot can get out. Marbel note that 
it's a tall order and quite dangerous but she'd like to try that.

The battle begins and Tokamaku's Dunbine is disabled and goes down and 
he wonders what the heck he should do.That was his last thought before 
he crashes and dies. Ni wonders why he didn't eject and Marbel note 
that if he wasn't summoned, he might not have to die.

Shou also goes down. He notes that attacking first might be a bit of a 
biased view Drake's forces gave them and that he doesn't want to die 
here and leaves. Marbel note that Shou seems like the type of person 
they might be able to talk and convince should the chance arise. 
Galaria also goes down but retreat saying that she's not planning to 
die while just training these surface worlders. Judo note that THAT 
was easy and Marbel says that as long as the Doro fighter planes don't 
come out in huge numbers, Mobile Suits should be fine against them. 
Kin is thankful that there isn't too many Aura Battlers here. Todd 
also retreats after being disabled and the battle is over. Bright note 
that that was extremely easy but Marbel says that those three were 
just summoned, they haven't had time to get used to things. Bright ask 
how she knew that the three surface worlders were piloting the AB 
anyway and Kin says that only a few of the troops here can pilot AB 
but all surface worlder have the necessary amount of Aura to do so. Ni 
is feeling quite good and cocky about this (having the powerhouse 
known as your team on his side), he says that they should continue to 
press the advantage and attack Ras Mu (spelling) next but Marbel says 
that Ban's Drumro isn't here so the main troop is elsewhere. Ban is 
the commander of Drake's army as Marbel points out and Camille note 
that the reason the enemy retreats so easily is because their 
commander isn't here.
 
Kouji says that they're no match for the team anyhow though Chizuru 
says that though they've downed one of the new AB, the other two 
doesn't seem to be giving it their all. Bright ask if this Ban is 
quite good and Marbel says he is so Bright decides that they should 
retreat for now.

Back at Drake's castle, Drake tells Ban that  Romun Kibun, Ni's father 
has requested a talk which Ban says is quite bothersome.Drake tells 
Ban that it's a good chance to scout out the enemies and to prepare 
the Aura Battlers troops just in case

At Romun Kibun's estate, Ban along with Shou is being welcomed by 
Marbel. Shou recognizes Marbel. Ban stated that his troops were under 
attack by a "mysterious Aura ship" that is believed to be with the 
House of Kibun yesterday and he'd like for Romun to explain though 
Romun says that that was not the purpose of the talk. Ni counters that 
he heard that Drake's troops were rumoured to be moving into the 
country of Mi and he'd like clarification as well. Ban spins that 
around saying that Ni attacked and killed their troops justified on 
that rumour? Romun also asks about the various Aura Battlers which 
could defeat their forces that have been coming into their territories 
with Ni saying that he has a photo (They have camera in Byston Well?) 
of a Doro amongst these Aura Battlers. Drake seems to have amassed a 
huge amount of warpower unseen before in Byston Well

Ban ask what they want and Romun says that they want to buy the 
service of Ban and his troops which makes Shou wonder if Romun thinks 
he can convince people with just money. Ban says that it's expensive 
but Ni says that they're willing to pay if it'll stop Drake's ambition. 
Ban says that even without him, Lord Drake's view will not change but 
Ni says that Ban is respected amongst Drake's troops. Ban note that Ni 
seems to think of him as someone who will jump for money ask if Ni 
bought off those surface worlders as well?

Ban says that he will need time to consider and talk with his troops. 
However once he is outside, Ban tells his troops to get ready for 
combat. Meanwhile Kin wonders why Ban brought the summoned surface 
dweller with him and Marbel note that they seem intent on using the 
surface worlder as their warpower. Folker note that it's probably to 
give them experience outside that of the battlefield.

Meanwhile Charm is giggling noting that Ban doesn't notice that a Tsuo 
is with him and he's spilling the bean(I'm guessing that it's like 
some sort of truth serum thingy, not too sure here) Ban says that 
Drake has begun making Aura Battler that even the normal troops can 
use. However one of Ban's solider saw Charm and interrupts Ban. Ban 
realizes what's going on and asks Romun for some times to talk it over 
with his troops. Romun says that he'll give him until morning to 
consider.

Outside, Ban is furious at Romun for playing dirty like that and 
orders his troops to prepare for combat.

Back at Romun's place, Kin wonder why Ban brought the surface worlder 
along and Marbel note that it seems that Drake is quite intent on 
using surface worlder as their main firepower. Folker note that it's 
probably to give them some experience as soliders beside on the 
battlefield. Ni notes that with this, even if Ban doesn't come back 
here, they'll be able to get the Royal family to mobilize their troops. 
Bright ask for Ni to explain and Ni says that the Tsuo that they 
attached to Ban remembers him and can be used as evidence. (At least 
that's what I think is the plan, it probably is a built in recorder 
also. Is this part of what happen in the anime? If so would someone 
care to clarify the scene for me?)  

Quattro doesn't believe Ban is THAT gullible though Charm reassures 
him that Ni's plan is perfect. Romun tells Ni not to be too 
overconfident even WITH the Surface Worlder's help. Ni of course is 
confident it'll work and they should get ready to report to the Royal 
Family though Folker note that things probably won't go that smoothly 
and Quattro agrees saying that they should strengthen the parameters 
here.

Episode 6b

Ban and his troops arrive and Ban orders them to burn Kibun's estate 
and the village surrounding it to the ground and kill all survivors 
before Ni arrives. Shou note that this is quite barbaristic and Todd 
says that he never thought Ban would be this vengeful. The Agama team 
deploys and Ni wonders why Ban would start to attack unless he noticed 
the Tsuo they attached to him. Kin tells Ni that they have to deploy 
and Ban says that there will be no change in plan and to kill them all. 
Shou note that Drake's troop is definitely NOT the place he wants to 
be with and tells Ban that he's decided to surrender to the team 
saying that he's been thinking since he came to his world and he's 
come to conclusion that what Drake is doing is wrong.  Ban is furious 
and tells his troop to slay the traitor Shou Zama though Shou doesn't 
plan on dying.

Judo note that something seems to be wrong and Shou announce that he's 
switching sides. Sayaka finds that hard to believe though Marbel says 
that she believes Shou and Bright says that they'll talk with him 
later and for everyone to deploy. Bright tells Shou that they still 
don't trust him that much but Shou says that Ban plans to decimate the 
House of Kibun. Bright asks if Shou wants to work with them to stop 
that and Shou says that that's his intention. Ni tells Shou to use 
that Aura Battler to save his father.

The battle begins and Galaria is shot down. Galaria note that a Doro 
is no longer enough to fight with; she needs an Aura Battler if she's 
to continue fighting the team.

Suddenly more Aura Battlers appear near the Kibun estate and Ban asks 
what they're doing here. The troops answer that they're under order 
from Drake	to act as 
reinforcement. Ni can't believe that Drake still has this much Aura 
Battler as reinforcement. Folker note that it's normal to hide away 
reinforcement until the time is right though these reinforcement feels 
a little weird to him. It seems like they have some type of different 
aura or power to them. Meanwhile a mysterious person note that if they 
didn't have reinforcement, they'd fail but he can't let Ban and the 
others die just yet.

Shout tells Todd to stop lending aid to Drake and join him as his 
friends but Todd says that he hates that sickeningly naive word 
friendship and there's no way he'll join Shou. Todd retreats and only 
Ban is left. Ban is defeated and he says that he didn't think the team 
was as powerful as this; this is beyond what he read in the report. 
Shou says that Ban and Drake are too hasty, there's no way they can 
win a war thinking like that. Ban says that they are the one who have 
more experience in warfare in Byston Well and that he won't forget 
this defeat.

The mysterious Drake reinforcement is also defeated and the mysterious 
person tells them to retreat saying that they've lit enough of the 
fire in Byston Wells. Folker note that the feeling of this weird power 
he felt was from that reinforcement that retreated.

Though the team is successful in driving off Ban's troops, Romun was 
injured in the attack and Romun tells Ni that Drake is definitely 
trying to attack the Kingdom Of Mi and he leaves the rest to Ni. 
Everyone feels sorry for Ni's loss and their inability to help but Ni 
says it's Drake's fault. Ni asks Charm to go spy on Drake's force at 
Ras Mu.

At Drake's castle which is in Ras Mu, Drake tells Galaria to go to 
King Fraon Elv of the Kingdom of Ar and deliver the Official letter 
from the Kingdom of Mi that they took from Romun when they 
assassinated him. It pretty much boils down to the fact that they will 
use Romun's letter as proof for an official excuse to invade the 
Kingdom of Mi in the name of the Kingdom of Ar with King Fraon's 
blessing.

Back at the Agama, Fa wonder if they'll be the one to attack next but 
Marbel and Kin says that Drake has pretty much made his next move 
which is to get permission from the Kingdom of Ar to invade the 
Kingdom of Mi. Shou note that Drake is quite crafty even though he 
didn't talk with Drake at all when he was with Drake. Emma ask if the 
Kingdom of Mi is also fighting Drake like Marbel's team but Kin says 
that they aren't exactly fighting but heavily criticizes Drake's 
actions. Judo ask if the border will fall and Marbel says that  Kiron, 
the royal palace does not have the forces capable of repelling Aura 
Battlers.Bright note that they'll have to head over there to repel 
Drake's forces.
</pre><pre id="faqspan-3">
Charm meanwhile asks Shou if he met Rimuru when he was with Drake. 
Shou says that he met her once; she seems quite strong willed 
insisting that her dad was wrong. Shou ask how Charm knows of Rimuru 
and Marbel tells him of Ni's relationship with Rimuru to which Shou 
says that Ni should be the one to ask him then. This tick Charm off a 
bit but Marbel welcomes Shou into the rank anyway and thanks him again.

Back at Drake's castle, Ban is testing out new Aura Battler models to 
be used in the assault though Todd wonder if it's THAT easy to start a 
war. Apparently it is as Galaria returns with permission to, at the 
very least, give the Kingdom of Mi a lot of trouble. Drake then tells 
his troops to make preparation.

Episode 7b

At Kiron, the royal palace, the Agama has arrived and Bright wonder if 
they alone can defend this place though Marbel says that if this place 
falls, Drake's forces will probably increase. Charm sees them coming 
and they've got new Aura Battler models with them.Bright can't believe 
that they have this much forces with them and order the team to deploy. 
Charm says that there's a boatload of Drumro which worries Marbel that 
Drake has begun mass-production of Aura Battlers at an alarming rate. 
Shou attribute this to Shot Weapon's handiwork.

Hyouma and the others note that the best way to defend this fort is to 
make sure the enemies don't get near it and charges out front. 
Unfortunately, the Titans remnant including Jerid and Yazan arrives 
deciding to settle scores with the Agama team despite Camille telling 
them that they should work to get back to the surface together. Jerid 
and Yazan strikes a cooperation with Ban to get more firepower against 
the team and the team find themselves almost overwhelmed but they 
battle on.

Ban is defeated though he swears that one day he will settle things 
with Shou and retreats. Galaria note that her inexperience with Aura 
Battler cost her victory today and Marbel tells Galaria to make her 
peace though Galaria isn't ready to die yet since she's only gotten 
the hang of using Aura Battler and escapes. Marbel note that Galaria's 
Aura power is increasing and she will be trouble soon. Todd is also 
defeated and Shou wonders why he just won't understand that he's just 
being used by Drake. Yazan is downed and refuse to just surrender 
saying he'll get them next time which makes Judo wonder why surface 
worlder like them have to fight each other even in another world. 
Jerid is also downed and he screams "And again I can't win?"Camille 
tells Jerid to let it end and work together with them to return back 
to their world but Jerid says that as long as he can kill Camille, 
he's happy. Camille asks what meaning is there to be stranded in a 
place you don't know but Jerid says that he'll think about it after 
killing Camille and he'll get him next time.

Folker note that Jerid is quite foolish for letting vengeance drives 
his life. However more forces arrives and Ni decides that they should 
retreat which puzzles Judo since they can still hold out. Ni however 
says that it is the will of King Pinegan that if the worst come, they 
should take Princess Ele and Lord Patfrit who are presently in one of 
the forest in this country to the Kingdom of Rau. Kouji hates turning 
his back on the enemy but Sayaka calms him down saying that he alone 
can't take them all on. Bright note that they're not powerful enough 
right now so they have to retreat even though it's quite hard for them 
emotionally.

After the team has retreated, Bright asks how they can accomplish 
finding and taking Princess Ele to the Kingdom of Rau. Ni tells them 
to wait as Charm gathers some intelligence. Judo wonders just how much 
forces Drake has anyway? Shou says that there's a plant at Ras Wol and 
they're pumping out more AB even as Drake invade the Kingdom of Mi. 
Camille note that they should go wreck it if they're going to have any 
chance against Drake. The Combattler team notes that they have to wait 
for Charm's info before they can decide what to do. Charm returns and 
says that Drake is planning on attacking Elv also. This makes Bright 
wonder why since isn't Drake a subordinate of King Fraon Elv? Marbel 
explains that King Fraon Elv is a King who hasn't done anything, a 
useless king to speak. Folker says that Drake probably has had enough 
of his King and plans to depose of him. Kin agrees saying that if King 
Fraon has been more competent, then Drake's ambition would never have 
happened.
Ni decides that it's best to go offer aid to King Fraon Elv and Bright 
agrees. 

Back at Drake's place, Drake is congratulated by his subordinate 
having taken over the Kingdom of Mi and all is in place now to take 
out that worthless King Fraon of Ar. Shot says that they have enough 
AB but they need more competent pilot. Drake says that they can use 
Silky to call down more Surface Worlder since she's rested enough. Ban 
caution that there may be those like Shou Zama also summoned here 
though Shot says that they'll have to work harder to groom them right.

The Agama team has made it in time and Ni ask if Charm knows the 
location of Drake's camp and Charm asks why and Ni says that a 
surprise attack might be the best way to take on Drake's forces right 
now when they're not prepared. Folker wonder if they alone will be 
able to pull it off since Drake will also have ground soliders on 
horseback also and Ni has the idea to ask for King Fraon to deploy his 
soliders on horseback against Drake as well.  Quattro note that it's 
worth a try though Bright wonder if King Fraon will agree to help 
since as Fa puts it, he doesn't do squat. Ni says that he'll try to 
get an audience with the King to get him to help and asks for the team 
to head towards Drake's camp since it's better than waiting here for 
Drake to start his attack.

Episode 8b

Near Drake's camp, Bright asks Ni how the audience with the King went 
and Ni says that he never got to directly meet the King but he got a 
promise from his subordinates that they will send reinforcement. The 
others are a bit uneasy at this but note that they've come this far 
now so that they can't turn back from attacking.

The Agama deploys and Drake's forces sound the alarm that it's a raid 
which makes Drake compliment them for this course of action. Ban note 
that this is a chance to prove himself in front of Drake and Shot 
after successive failures and deploys. Emma notes that Drake has a lot 
more Aura Battlers than she thought which Shou say is because of the 
production plant. Kouji says that until the calvary arrives, he plans 
to do as much damage as possible. The battle begins.

Camille wonders after a while just WHEN the reinforcement is coming 
since they're at their max and Folker note that they've probably been 
abandoned by King Fraon as a sacrificial lamb. Ni is very frustrated 
at having been lied to noting that it was the perfect chance to take 
out Drake and Bright wonder if they should retreat when two new 
entrants appear which makes Bright wonder if those are Aura Battlers 
as well. 

Hitomi note that they're in a battlefield and Judo recognize Van's 
voice and ask what is he doing here, didn't he go home? Van said that 
he WAS able to return to Gaia but a lot of things happened. Bright 
says that they'll catch up later and ask if the other mech belongs to 
his friend. Allen introduces himself and Marbel ask them to pitch in 
and help and Allen says that it's against the Drake army right? Shou 
wonder how they knew about Drake but it makes explanation unnecessary.

Hitomi suddenly tells everyone to be careful since enemies are coming 
and it's Deilando and subordinates.

Deilando says that he's finally found Van and Van wonders if 
Deilando's been sent to this world also? Deilando asks what that meant 
and makes it spiffy since he's quite short on temper. Van and Allen 
say that they're not in Gaia anymore but Byston Wells. Not that it 
matter to someone like Deilando who says that he's only interested in 
killing Van and taking the Dragon.

Same goes likewise for Todd Guiness who is intent on settling things 
with Shou Zama. Shou note that the pilot in the other Dunbine should 
be Todd but the speed is quite different, could it be that Todd's Aura 
Power has increased? Todd says that Shou relied on his machine too 
much and he'll prove it....ah who is he kidding; Todd is downed quickly 
by Shou. Shou asks Todd why is he this eager to prove himself and Todd 
says that he can't afford anymore losses after coming to this world. 
Shou tells him to get out of his Dunbine, it's going to blow and Todd 
tells him to shut up before Todd's Dunbine blows up. Shou lament Todd 
since they both got summoned to Byston Well together. (He ain't dead 
Jim, he'll pop up in later episode to give you headaches)

Ban takes on Shou and note that this is the power of Shou and the 
Dunbine. He can't believe it since the Dunbine is JUST a prototype for 
their later Aura Battler which means that Shou's Aura power is 
stronger than he imagined. Ban is shot down and he says that he 
underestimated them. Shou asks if he's running away and Ban says that 
he cannot die here. Ni says regretfully that if they could kill Ban 
here, it would make their battle against Drake much easier. Marbel and 
Kin say to be thankful that they made him retreat and if reinforcement 
hadn't popped up, they might be overwhelmed by now.

Deilando is of course beaten again and he can't believe that he's 
received this much damage from the team. Van asks why Deilando is 
after Escaflowne and Deilando lets slip that it's all for Lord 
DornKirk, he'll retreat this time but he'll get them next time.

Ni note that they've driven off the Drake forces here which is a 
campwhich means they can go after Drake himself next but Shou tells 
him not to get too ambitious and be thankful that they beat the forces 
here at the camp. Ni says that he can't just let this chance go by but 
Marbel says that everyone's tired right now.. Ni regretfully notes 
that they have to retreat once again.

Ni thanks Van for his help and Van says that he's glad to meet someone 
he knows of right now. Charm asks how they came back to Byston Wells. 
Van says that they were in the middle of moving when a light send them 
here. Shou says that if they have no objectives right now, he wants to 
ask for their help against Drake. Folker ask how they know about Drake 
anyhow and Allen says that Drake's forces attacked Gaia as well.

Ni note that Drake has not made any move against another world from 
the information they've gathered and Kin adds that while the barriers 
between dimensions are weaker than normal, Drake does not have a way 
to move freely amongst the dimension to a determined location so he 
definitely can't stage an attack on another world from Byston Wells. 
Quattro wonders who those people were then and Allen note that they 
did loudly announce themselves as the Drake army and they were using 
the same Aura Battlers as those used here.

Folker says that the Drake army in Gaia could be imposters like the 
one he sensed during the attack on the Kibun house. Kouji ask if 
Folker isn't just imagining it but Folker is deep in thought "Creating 
unrest by using other troops' machine and appearance... could it be...?" 
Allen note that they'll have to ask Drake himself which means that 
he's in to help Ni and the others. Bright also note that they're 
interested in the "Drake army" that attacks Allen's camp and since 
Drake may have a way to return them to the upper world, they might as 
well target him.

Meanwhile, Misaru introduces himself to Drake and wishes to offer his 
troops' services to Drake. Drake asks why Misaru comes to him instead 
of the Kingdom of Elv. Misaru says that there's no worth lending power 
to someone on the losing side. Drake asks if that's so, then why does 
he need Misaru's power since he's sure to win by himself?. Misaru says 
that that may be so against normal solider from Elv but there's a 
miracle group whose power Drake should do well not to underestimate. 
Drake says that he's read the report about the attack on one of his 
outpost and asks if Misaru knows of them?
Misaru says that his army's intelligence division is quite good. Drake 
notes that the upperworlder troops must also be a bother to Misaru and 
wants to know what he wants from him. Misaru says that he'll need some 
fundings and one of Drake's latest Aura Battler. Drake begrudgingly 
says that he'll give Misaru what he wants in exchange for fighting the 
team but that doesn't mean he trust him yet, bring him some results 
first.

Misaru note that with this, he's gotten enough firepower to accomplish 
his task and one of the latest machines from this world too, he can't 
help but chuckle a bit.

Back to where the team is, Allen is admiring Byston Well, he can't 
believe that it's another world. Hyouma agrees saying that that's what 
he thought when he first came here and Juuzo noting that he still 
thinks it's a dream Kosuke wonder what the cause is and Daisaku note 
that Folker came to their world from his and now it seems that the 
same thing happened to them. Folker note that this world also had an 
Earthquake which seemed to make moving between worlds much easier. 
Quattro wonders if the Earthquake is really the root cause of all this. 

Charm comes in saying that Drake's forces are on the move to Elv which 
was supposed to have sent aid to Shou's group in attacking Drake's 
camp. Shou says that it's none of their beef then which gets Marbel 
quite angry but Shou retorted that they don't need to lend a hand to a 
Kingdom that doesn't follow through on their promises. Ni agrees with 
Shou saying that they could have died back there. Marbel asks if the 
two of them are allowing Drake's action and Shou says that it's not 
like that. Marbel says that they're fighting for a cause here and 
Folker ask if Ni and Shou aren't fighting to protect the land from 
Drake. Allen asks what they fight for. Do they fight for a Kingdom 
that broke its promise or rather to stop Drake's ambition? 

Ni and Shou think it over and apologize. Ni says that they should head 
for Elv immediately and he wants Shou and Kin to hurry on ahead.

Episode 9

At Elv, Galaria says that she will show the prowess of the Bastoll in 
this raid though Ban says that he won't let her hog all the glory. 
Shou and Kin arrives at Elv to find it under attack by Ban's forces 
and Shou tells Kin that they have to draw the enemies' attention 
towards them instead of on Elv. Ban tells Galaria to focus on the 
Dunbine and leave the raid on Elv to their subordinates.  The battle 
barely begins when the Agama team arrives. Judo note that Drake's 
force has a new Aura Battler model out though Shou says that having a 
new model doesn't guarantee a victory. Jun notes that they're in quite 
a large number and everyone notes that they'll have to be careful. 
Bright tells everyone to protect Elv.

The fighting resumes and after a while, more Drake forces arrives. 
Folker note that he feels that same type of power emancipating from 
these troops as those that appeared on Gaia. Camille asks why Jerid is 
with these people and Jerid says that he's thrown in with these people 
to defeat Camille. One of the soldiers says to stop saying unnecessary 
things but Jerid doesn't care saying that all he wants is to beat 
Camille so he doesn't plan on following their orders anymore. Folker 
then says "Of course, I know who you are now..." Folker then explain 
that he feels the same aura/power from these "Drake" troops as those 
that attacked Gaia; they're an old acquaintance he's sworned to defeat, 
the Shura. "How about showing your true face...Algo" Folker shouted.  
The Drake solider then rips off his disguise and shows himself as one 
of the Shura under Misaru's command, Algo. Algo says that Folker is 
quite a bother having figures it out and while it may not be Lord 
Misaru's command, he'll kill Folker here.

Folker then note that Misaru is definitely behind Algo's action but 
Algo says that it doesn't matter to someone who's going to die like 
Folker. The battle continues and even more enemies arrive. This time 
it is one of the Shura general, Magnus who asks Algo why he is taking 
so long. "So even YOU'RE here" Folker says quite condescendingly which 
makes Magnus quite angry since he's a General, he demands respect. 
"That's a laugh" Folker replies and Magnus says that he'll kill Folker 
like he kill all those that doesn't show him the proper respect.

Besieged from all side by powerful enemies such as the Shura, Drake 
army and Titans remnant, the Agama team does their best to repel the 
enemy forces from Elv. Algo is defeated and he complained "What a 
worthless piece of junk" and Folker adds "That's actually because your 
fighting skills are sorely lacking, the only thing you're good at was 
your disguise power which you use to become Misaru's lackey, or am I 
wrong?" Algo is infuriated and Misaru calls out to Algo to come back, 
that's enough.

Yazan gets beaten and Judo tells him to give it up though Yazan escape 
as usual saying that he won't stop until he kills them. Jerid on the 
other hand bites the dust by Camille's hand and dies saying 
"Camille...you're my..." and his mech explodes with him in it. Quattro 
tells Camille not to mull over it since if you show any doubt during a 
battle, you might be the one to perish instead of your enemies. 
Camille sadly says that he knows that.

Ban is also defeated and he mulls that his Aura power is still lacking 
but he can't fall here yet. Ban tells Shou that he'll kill him next 
time and retreats. Ni note that they've forced Ban to retreat; only 
Galaria is left and her Aura power should be weaker than Ban's. Magnus 
is also sent running and blames his loss on his machine. Misaru 
demands to know what Magnus is doing here anyway since he didn't order 
him to be deployed. Misaru orders Magnus to retreat or is he going to 
further defy him. Magnus relent and Folker comments "Still whipped as 
usual, I see" Magnus retorts that Folker doesn't know the extent of 
Misaru's power. "Be sure to tell him I sent you running" Folker says. 
Magnus says that Folker will regret it, he'll kill Folker one day and 
retreats. Judo asks if it's ok letting him go like that and Folker 
says that if Magnus had decided to give it his all, then they'd have a 
harder fight on their hand. Ru asks if he's THAT strong and Folker 
says that Magnus IS a "General" after all but Magnus's still not on 
par with him; however it's better to let him leave right now and 
concentrate on the other enemies than to enter a fight to the death 
with him which will take up too much of their manpower at the moment.

Galaria is the last one and is in combat with Shou and though Shou 
seems to have defeated her, Galaria shouted "It's not over yet, I'll 
defeat you Dunbine" Shou sensed that Galaria's different from before, 
her power is even greater than Ban's. The two combatants then decide 
to use their Aura Power to overwhelm the other and everyone wonders 
why they've stopped moving. Suddenly there is a flash of light which 
makes the team wonders what's happening as the two Aura powers seems 
to be reacting to each other. Ni tells Shou to get away from Galaria's 
Bastoll but Hitomi says it's too late, they're being engulfed and 
fling to another dimension.

After the light recede, Bright wonders where they are THIS time and 
Emma and Camille note that from the looks of it, they've returned back 
to upper Earth, THEIR world. Suddenly Noin contacts the team and says 
that she's heard about their disappearance and had been trying to find 
them for a while now and she's finally succeed in finding them. Bright 
and Quattro say that they'll fill her in later but they've been to 
another world, can she tell them about enemies movement since they've 
been gone.

Noin says that right now, Earth is under serious attack by the 
Conquestor army, the one that attacked Tokyo. Quattro is surprised 
since those enemies they encountered back then doesn't seem too tough 
for even the weakened and disarrayed Federation to take out. Ru adds 
that the Feds probably are just being lazy again. Noin says that 
that's not the case since most Federation base have been destroyed by 
the Conquestor. Camille can't believe that the Conquestor have sent 
such a large force to overwhelm the combined Federation troops from 
those base. Noin says that the Conquestor haven't used troops to 
demolish the base but they've used the Omega Missile. Noin says that 
after the battle at Tokyo, the Conquestor have established missile 
launching bases that can fire extremely long ranged missile. Judo asks 
why they haven't taken out that base yet and Noin says that the Feds 
tries but the Omega Missile reacts and locks on to a nuclear reactor 
and the troops of Mobile Suits that were powered by it were destroyed 
just barely after the Operation against the Missile base began. The 
Omega Missiles were also used against the Fed bases where Federation 
MS are stationed.

Bright then asks if one of these Omega Missile is headed towards the 
Agama as they speak and Noin says that thankfully, the Agama's 
location is in a blind spot where the Missile can't locate it and if 
they use the Minovsky particle during flight then the ship should be 
able to mask itself from the Omega Missile but Bright note that if 
they start up and deploy an MS then the Missile will target them. Noin 
says that they're working on stopping these Omega Missiles by 
attacking it from beyond it's detonation range and increasing the 
armouring in their MS and such. Quattro says that that's still not too 
comforting and asks the schedule they have to move against the Missile 
bases but Noin says that it's still in it's planning stage. Bright 
says that they'll help out and to contact them once a plan is ready. 
He grumbles that they finally return only for this to happen.

Folker asks if the Shura had appeared and Noin says that there are 
many cases of unidentified battle happenings but no such report of a 
Shura attack. Folker notes that the Shura may be searching for them. 
Noin says that about the mysterious illness she mentioned last time, 
it's been labeled as Algernon by the independent company hired to 
investigate it. Noin says that there's been an increase in cases since 
then. Noin suddenly says that there's an emergency call she has to 
take and excuse herself for a minute leaving the team wondering if 
Algernon's a virus or a biological attack by an enemy like the 
Conquestor. Noin suddenly tells Bright that according to the emergency 
call, the Conquestor army has appeared in Tokyo again and Fa says that 
they can be there in 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, Meigis, another Shura general, greets Misaru and Misaru 
wants to know what she wants and Meigis says that she doesn't want to 
come here but she has order from the Shura King and Misaru asks if the 
King is safe and sound. Meigis tells Misaru to cut the sucking up to 
the King and says that the order is that all Shura are to gather at 
Misaru's location and follow his commands. This of course elates 
Misaru and Meigis asks what Misaru is planning, if it's nothing good 
then death will visit him quite early. Misaru then ask "Well I wonder 
what it could be?" Meigis has enough of Misaru and decides to leave 
and Misaru says to say hello to Lord Alteis for him.

Alone, Misaru note that the Shura King must not have recovered enough 
yet to have delegated THIS much power and command to him and he 
chuckles with mad glee.

At the Agama, Ni is frustrated, he wonders how they can return to 
Byston Well since while they're gone, Drake is probably running 
rampant back there. Kin and Charm tells him to calm down, the Captain 
and the others are probably trying to find a way to send them back 
somehow. Ni then retorted as to when that's going to happen, Drake's 
probably taken over Elv by now and soon all of Byston Wells. Shou says 
that even so, raising a ruckus here isn't going to help anything. Ni 
retorted "Hmph, YOU'RE back where YOU came from, that's why you're 
saying that but this is OUR country's problem" Van tells Ni "Give it a 
rest, YOU'RE not the only one worry about his country and it's 
people." This angers Ni a lot and Van continues "I haven't forgotten 
about my conflict with the Zaibach Empire back in Gaia too." Hitomi 
then says that the Agama team won't just abandon them like that but 
their Earth is in trouble too. Even knowing all this, once they were 
sent elsewhere, they were willing to help Ni and the others against 
Drake. Allen teach Ni that if they don't extend the same courtesy now 
that it's THEIR turn away from home, then the team won't lend Ni their 
strength when he needs it. (In other word, it's time for Ni to give a 
little after taking a lot)

Marbel tells Ni that he's being tested whether he can handle the power 
and responsibility that will be needed to lead a force against Drake. 
Ni note Marbel's word and then says "You're right, I have to return 
the favors I owe them" "Jacoba  Aon may be watching over our trials" 
Charm adds that the Ferario's  Elder Jacoba  will probably send them 
home to Byston Wells after she's witness their deeds. Kin explains to 
Shou that Jacoba has the power to send them all home.  Ni apologizes 
to Van and Van says that he's been sent home to Gaia via the Energy 
stone before, until that time comes again, he'll assist the team as 
they assisted him.

Episode 10

In Tokyo, Jimmy shouted that he won't let any one of the Conquestor 
get back out alive and Ryuusuke suggest that they combine into 
Mekander Max otherwise they're going to be overwhelmed and Jimmy 
rogered that shouting "Trisir, Mekander Max, Go!!" Back at the 
Mekander base, Mika tells her father that the team has successfully 
combined into Mekander Max but Prof. Shikishima note that even so, 
they're just beginners, he'll have to use that thing even if it's 
risky and he tells the Mekander team that he'll launch a robot out and 
for the Mekander Max to combine with it or more precisely dock with it.  
Jimmy is a bit hesitant but the robot is launched and the others urged 
Jimmy to do it. "Trisir, Mekander Cross" he shouted. Mika suddenly 
reported that an Omega Missile has been fired heading straight for 
them from Missile Base no.5 arriving within five minutes. Prof. 
Shikishima realized that the Omega Missile is even targeting the 
nuclear engine in a robot. Meanwhile the Mekander team is ecstatic 
over the power of the Mekander robot with Jimmy noting that with this, 
he'll really lay into the Conquestors. Prof.Shikishima tells them the 
bad news of them being Missile target in five minutes but he says that 
if they can finish their battle in five minutes and decombine or Power 
Out, the nuclear engine will stop and the Missile will lose it's 
objective. Prof.Shikishima begins the countdown and Mekander Robo 
rushes to fight the Conquestor forces at once.

The team arrives and Prof.Shikishima fills them in, with them being 
here, the missile is definitely going to target either Mekander or one 
of the MS which makes Judo gulp in terror. Tetsuya says that this is a 
job for Great Mazinger but Jun tells him that it's a wide ranged 
missile so Tetsuya says that the MS can retreat far back and he'll 
head off the missile when it comes. Prof. Shikishima says that they 
have three minutes left. The Mekander team note that it's the Feds 
though Shou says that it's not a usual army and Van note that since 
they're stuck in this, they're going to fight to stay alive. Ryuusuke 
note that there sure are many weird looking mech in this team and 
Folker says that the same goes for Mekander but looks aren't 
everything.

The battle begins and Great Mazinger heads for the most likely 
direction the missile will come from while the others lend Mekander 
Robo a hand in fighting but suddenly the Shura army arrives. Fernando 
says that Folker and the team had quite an adventure in Byston Well 
didn't they? Camille asked how they knew and Arion says that they met 
Magnus right? Folker note that Misaru was definitely behind this. Shou 
says that this isn't time to talk and tells them about the Omega 
Missile but Fernando doesn't care with Arion also saying that if they 
beat the team and retreat before it comes, it's no problem right?

Folker tells Fernando that the Shura HAVE to change and Fernando asks 
if he's still spouting those gibberish again, for a Shura, losing in a 
fight means death, that's all there is to it. He thought that Folker 
understood that as his opponent but Folker showed pity and let him 
lived. Folker says that he doesn't want to kill Fernando but Fernando 
says that those type of thoughts are unnecessary for a Shura. Fernando 
then says "Folker...I... no... there is no more needs for talk, you will 
receive my grandest technique and die"

The Omega Missile appears and Jimmy note that they were too late 
(thanks to the Shura) and Bright tells everyone to be careful of it's 
speed and radius of it's explosion. The Great Mazinger heads it off 
and it explodes near the sea. 

Folker defeats Fernando and Fernando note that this is it for him and 
tells Folker to end their battle by granting him death. Folker tells 
Fernando to go, his beef isn't with Fernando. Fernando is furious and 
asks just how long is Folker to keep him suffering in disgrace like 
this. Folker says that if Fernando is going to hate him, then go ahead 
and hate him if it will become his reason for living. Fernando asks if 
Folker is telling him to live and Folker says that the wounds of the 
heart and the wounds of the body are different. The sadness of losing 
a friend is far greater than any physical injuries. Fernando is 
perplexed at the thought that someone will be sad at his death. Folker 
ends it saying "No matter how much you may hate me, I will not kill a 
friend" Fernando doesn't understand "A friend?  I don't understand 
what you're thinking but I'll make you regret not killing me" and he 
leaves.

Arion is flame roasted by the Mekander Robo's atomic Mekander Flame 
and he tells the team to end his life but Folker asks if he really is 
in that much of a hurry to die and Arion says that he lost and to get 
it over with. Folker says that he's not going to kill him and Arion 
asks if Folker plans to let him suffer the disgrace that he gave 
Fernando too? Folker says that if Arion wants to think of it like that 
then he can since they're the winner and they can do whatever they 
want. Some day maybe Arion will come to understand that but to go for 
now. Arion shouted that he'll get Folker for this and retreats.

The battle is over and Ryuusuke asks if another Omega Missile is 
coming and the Doc says that it's still in space so if they retreat 
now, it's all right. Prof. Shikishima introduce himself as the creator 
of Mekander Robo and that thanks to the Agama, they were able to stop 
the Omega Missile from destroying Tokyo. Quattro note that the Missile 
really is something hard to deal with. Prof.Shikishima says that if 
possible, they shouldn't use MS or anything like the Mekander that 
runs on nuclear energy at all but it's impossible as Bright noted. 
Prof.Shikishima asks if Mekander Robo can go with the Agama team since 
while he did built it, he's not confident that he'll be able to 
command the Mekander team and get them out of every jam. Bright says 
that they'll be going all over the place on Earth, wouldn't it be 
better to work under the commands of the Federation troops in Japan. 
Prof. Shikishima says that he want to use the Mekander as efficiently 
as possible which is with your team and it's fine with the Mekander 
team too as they introduce themselves. 

Folker tells Ryouma that the various Shura troops are now definitely 
gathered and working under the one named Misaru who will stop at 
nothing to gain what he wants which also includes playing dirty as 
Hayato asked. Camille notes that with someone like that at the helm of 
the Shura army and Folker agrees that it's not something to laugh 
about. Bright notes that staying here does nothing so maybe it's time 
to go check out some of the leads about Algernon that the Preventers 
gathered for them.

At the Conquestor Base, Medusa laughs and tells Ozmel that the 
mistakes of his troops equals to his own mistakes also. Ozmel demands 
Medusa stop laughing and ask what can SHE do? Medusa says that if it 
was her, she'd have taken over Tokyo in one blow already. She is the 
Queen of the planet Kanimede and with its name at stake, she will 
decimate Tokyo. Suddenly Ozmel receives a silent transmission from the 
Emperor Betron and he tells Medusa that the ship Jingira will soon be 
completed and for Medusa to use it to destroy those annoying flies.

Meanwhile at the Agama, Bright gathered everyone and says that from 
intelligence reports, the Shura have been involve in some minor 
sighting in the past but they have more or less disappeared recently 
(the battle just now not withstanding) Allen note that they're 
probably gathering up forces with Folker agreeing that they're up to 
something in Byston Wells. He didn't really think that they would 
reach out to take another world like that. Quattro note that they'll 
have to deal with the Shura only once they attack the team for now so 
he hopes Folker doesn't get too restless. Bright goes on to say that 
aside from the Shura, it seems that remnant of Marimeia's troops have 
gathered at Brussell. Fa and Camille note that Marimeia was reported 
to have died already in all the databanks on Earth to stop giving 
hopes to her troops. Quattro note that data must have been leaked as 
to her true fate. Ru asks if Noin is headed towards Brussell and 
Bright says that the Preventers are going all out to contain the 
Marimeia remnants and it might be a good idea to head over there.

About the Conquestor, they seem to have warp out from space to begin 
their invasion with usage of those mechs the team fought and the Omega 
Missiles and as long as they don't take care of the Missile bases 
first, then they can't attack the Conquestor's main base. Judo then 
tells Bright that they should take it out now then but Bright says 
that there's more than one base so he think it's best if they gather 
their remaining forces to help out. Hayato note that means Kouji and 
the Mazinger Z along with Sayaka and Boss and also Hyouma and the 
Combattler Team's Combattler V. Fa asks about the Algernon problem and 
Bright says that the Modi Warp Company that's taking care of it 
doesn't have much to go by even now and Emma says that the Akamatsu 
company is being introduced right now (Not too sure here.) Shou note 
that they'll have to hurry then and Bright orders the Agama launched 
at once.

Elsewhere, Yazan note that they've finally returned to the surface but 
they've lost Jerid and with this little firepower, they can't take out 
the Agama. A Titans solider tells Yazan that a Shura mech is coming in 
their direction. It is Arion and Yazan asked what he wants since he 
has no business with the Shura. Arion asks if he's targeting the Agama 
and knows of a Ragan Dagaran. Yazan note that Ragan was a Neo Zion 
officer, maybe he'd like to hear more of what Arion wants to say right 
now. Arion says that Ragan has join forces with them to attack the 
Agama which is why he'd like Yazan to join as well. Yazan consider it 
and he thought, what the heck, Neo Zion and the Titans may have been 
enemies but that doesn't concern him as long as he sinks the Agama so 
he's in.

Episode 11

At Brussell, Zechs notes that the amount of Marimeia remnant is 
greater than he expected. Noin says that she's already informed the 
Agama team about this so they're on their way so it might be better to 
wait for them but Zechs says that he wants to finish this with his own 
hands. Zechs tells Noin that she doesn't have to stick with him for 
this but Noin says that she won't let him leave her again like that. 
The Marimeia remnant demands Zechs tells them where Marimeia is being 
kept. Zechs ask what are they talking about, Marimeia is dead but the 
remnant troops say that they know the truth that Zechs and the other 
faked her death. 

Noin asked where they got that information from and the remnants says 
that it doesn't matter, return Marimeia at once. Zechs says that he 
has no idea what they're babbling about and even if he does, he's not 
going to return Marimeia to them. The remnant troops ask if they 
really think the two of them can take all of the troops on but 
suddenly the Wing boys arrived to reinforce the two. Heero says that 
this concerns them with Quatre noting that the two of them are still 
going about casually challenging impossible odds as usual and Duo says 
that they can't just abandon the two like that. The Marimeia remnant 
asked just how long is Heero's group going to interfere with them and 
Trowa ask if they should duke it out now with Wufei says that justice 
is with them so of course. The Marimeia troops are determined to 
defeat the Wing boys and get Marimeia back and the battle begins.
As the battle rages, the Shura army arrives with their commander 
Alteis who note that the difference in power is great in this battle. 
Meigis is at his side saying that this is far below expectation to 
warrant her and Lord Alteis's attention. Alteis says that they 
shouldn't dally here long and Meigis agrees saying that the place 
wouldn't hold for long any way (i.e. it'll soon be engulfed in the 
flame of war that the humans started even without their involvement). 
Alteis says that's not the reason and Meigis asks if Lord Alteis 
suspect that Misaru is taking some type of actions to further his 
plans as they speak. Alteis says that he doesn't suspect so right now 
but he does not want to do as Misaru wants, for while he may be 
subordinate to the Shura King, he has no intention of working to 
further Misaru's goals. Even at a first impression, Misaru is a very 
dangerous man who will one day make an attempt on the King. Alteis 
suggest that they do not enter the fray but leave.

Duo notes that the Marimeia remnant's reinforcement just keeps coming 
and Quatre wonders if they're fighting a losing war THIS time. Zechs 
tells the Wing boys to retreat and leave the two of them to handle it 
but Quatre says that it means that their reason for coming in the 
first place will disappear. Duo says that if they wanted to run, 
they'd have done it in the first place although this battle IS getting 
tough. This is when the Agama team arrives and Folker note that the 
Shura Army is here. He wonders if it's Fernando. Alteis greets him and 
Folker in shock replies "Big brother Alteis..." This surprises everyone 
that Folker has a bigger brother also in the Shura Army.  Meigis is 
surprised by this as well and Folker shouted that he doesn't want to 
fight with his big bro but Alteis says that he has nothing to say to 
Folker. Alteis then tells Meigis that THIS is probably their intended 
assignment but they'll leave right now which surprises Meigis. Alteis 
says that he will leave the Shura army behind and for a man who could 
have been chosen to be a Shura General like Folker, let's see him try 
to overcome this obstacle. Meigis note that Misaru must have planned 
for Lord Alteis to meet Folker.

When questioned about his big bro, Folker say that while they are not 
blood brother, they are soul brother like him and Fernando and they 
were raised like actual siblings. Van asks if Fernando is also 
considered Folker's brother and Folker confirms it. Allen asks why 
Fernando has such a mad-on for Folker then. Folker is silent and 
Quattro tells everyone to stop probing, this isn't the time, they have 
to take care of the enemies first.

The Marimeia troops then says that they trusted those people too much 
but that's fine since there's enough firepower here anyway to get 
Marimeia back. To their everlasting regret, they find out that they're 
absolutely wrong. Heero note that it's over and Quatre says that even 
now, there are still people that cannot let go of Dekim's ambitions. 
Folker says that's probably not it, Misaru probably manipulated and 
incited them into taking actions. Zechs asks if this Misaru is someone 
who was the mastermind behind this and Shou says that if they don't 
take him out, then something like this could occur again in the future. 
Charm wonders where they can find him and Ni says they still don't 
know the location of where the Shura are gathering since he's probably 
there. Marbel concludes that the time will come when they'll have to 
take him head on. Folker apologizes and Emma says that it's not 
Folker's fault at all. Camille asks what the Preventers will do now 
and Noin says that they want to go with the Agama team with Wufei 
saying that as long as the enemies who fan the flames of war exists, 
their work is not done and Duo says that they can destroy their mechs 
to end their involvement anytime but now isn't the time since it's 
powers are needed. Bright then welcomes them aboard with Heero saying 
"Mission accepted"


Episode 11b( Shin Getter Robo)

Tekko Oni has arrived in town and is demanding that Getter Robo 
battles him and the Getter team deploys in Shin Getter Robo. Ryouma 
recognize Tekko Oni who says that he has come for their deathmatch. 
Hayato and Benkei can't believe that Tekko Oni is still alive. Tekko 
Oni says that his Tekko Ki can only be commanded by him so it is truly 
him and Ryouma asks why does he want to battle them to the death now, 
the Hyakki Empire is destroyed. Tekko Oni says that it's now that they 
can guarantee no interference, last time, Hidora forces him to deploy 
in the unfinished Tekko Ki and intervened in their fight also. Ryouma 
says they have no reason to fight but Tekko Oni says that his dream is 
of defeating Getter Robo. Ryouma ask if they cannot fight elsewhere, 
like on the soccerground as before but Tekko Oni says that he no 
longer wants that.

Suddenly Hyakki mech appears which galls Hayato and Benkei that Tekko 
Oni would resort to ganging up on them but Tekko Oni says that he 
doesn't know of this, he only wanted a fair fight with the team. 
Ryouma ask for Tekko Oni to help them then, if Tekko Oni truly wants a 
fight with Getter Robo, then it has to be after the enemies that are 
targeting Earth are destroyed. Tekko Oni agrees to that but tells them 
that they had better live up to their end of the bargain.

More enemies arrives but Tekko Oni note that they are just small fries 
and Ryouma says that those are no match for Getter but the Agama team 
arrives to pitch in any way. Juuzo note that the Getter team seems to 
be doing all right but Hayato says to cut the sarcasm and pitch in. 
Judo can't believe that there's this many leftover Hyakki mech and 
Tekko Oni wonders where they hid themselves anyway. Quattro ask who 
Tekko Oni is since he looks like a Hyakki and Ryouma corrects Quattro 
saying that he's a former Hyakki who's helping them right now. Ni 
wonders if he can be trusted and Hayato says that Tekko Oni was always 
a man of his words even when with the Hyakki. Tekko Oni says that he's 
not fighting for world peace but for his own peace of mind, for 
himself. Folker note "Fighting for yourself" Shou and Marbel note that 
the Tekkou Ki looks quite in between that of a good guy robot and a 
bad guy robot that you can't be sure from the looks of it though Charm 
says that they have a lot of that in their troops to which Jimmy asks 
if they're talking about Mekander Robot. 

Quattro says to cut the chitchat and get to work; they'll work with 
Tekko Oni on defeating these Hyakki mechs. The Titans remnant under 
Yazan also arrive to join the fight against the Agama team and Ru 
wonders why Yazan have Neo Zion MS with him and Yazan says that they 
have the same purpose against the Agama team so they've join forces. 
Ragan says that until they rebuild Neo Zion, he will not fall and he 
will not be picky about the methods used to achieve that goal. Yazan 
says that joining forces with others isn't just a specialty for the 
Agama team. Folker says "Fools, you join forces for thirst and 
vengeance?" and Yazan retorted that if Folker fells before them, he'd 
rethink over his view. Folker says that Yazan can try but Folker has 
always used his fist to change things. Ragan has to admit that the 
Agama team is indeed very strong and Van tells Ragan to give up the 
useless struggling but Ragan says that he has taken the first step 
towards his goals, there is no turning back. This annoys Allen who 
says that there are heaps of other things that he could do but Ragan 
says that he's here to gauge the team's measure today, he'll retreat 
for now.

Camille tells Yazan to just give it up but Yazan says that this is his 
vengeance against them, he won't quit until they're dead, next time 
will be different and he retreats yet again.  The enemies are defeated 
and Bright ask for the Getter team's help against the Conquestor and 
other enemies. Ryouma and co. note that there are still probably some 
dormant Hyakki mech waiting to activate themselves but those can wait 
since it's better taking the fight to a known enemy like the 
Conquestor than waiting to deal with one like remnant Hyakki mech. Kin 
note that they're turning into quite a big army but Marbel says that 
she still doesn't feel too safe even with their numbers. Bright notes 
that they should keep on moving to their other destinations.




Episode 12

At the Photonic Institute, Sayaka asked Boss if the Kikaijuus are 
following them as planned and Boss says that it's right on schedule 
with Sayaka noting that all they have to do now is wait for Kouji to 
show up. The Kikaijus arrived a little earlier than planned and Boss 
panic asking where Kouji is and Kouji shouted "Right here" and 
Mazinger Z deploys. Kouji tells Sayaka and Boss to leave the rest to 
him but Boss and Sayaka says they'll fight too or Kouji will get 
overwhelmed by the numbers. Kouji tells the two of them to be careful.

The Mazinger team starts defeating the Kikaijuus but even more arrives 
and Sayaka is surprised that there's this much left with Kouji noting 
that they beat Dr. Hell a long long time ago, so what gives? Sayaka 
note that at this rate they'll be overwhelmed and Boss starts to panic 
again but Kouji shouts at him "You idiot, we've been through worse 
than this and came out all right" On cue the Agama team arrives to 
back the team up. Tetsuya tells Kouji "It's been a long time" and 
Kouji says that he didn't think there were this much Kikaijuu left and 
he's thankful for the help. Folker note "So THAT'S Mazinger Z, with 
all the trust and expectation I'm seeing from the others, it must have 
quite a lot of power" Kouji asks who Folker is and Emma says that it's 
Folker whom they've told Kouji about. Folker asks if Kouji has 
something to say to him and Kouji says that he's sorry that Folker had 
to be involved in Earth's conflict but Folker says "Don't worry, the 
same goes for me involving you people with my conflict" Sayaka tells 
Kouji to concentrate on the Kikaijuu and Kouji says that he'll take 
those Kikaijuu out now.

Of course the Omega Missile has to interfere again but for the one 
nicknamed the Fortress of Steel, it's just a minor scratch on the 
paintjob. However Medusa and the Conquestor army also arrive saying 
that they'll dispatch of the annoying Earthlings. Jimmy says that 
he'll defeat the Conquestors though Ru notes that they're still busy 
with Kikaijuu. Marbel says that it can't be helped so they're better 
off starting to lessen the numbers of enemies around. Ni wonders if 
they can really do anything about this large a number of enemies but 
Quattro says that the number might be large but each enemy by 
themselves aren't too strong so they should be able to lessen the 
numbers quickly.

Medusa is defeated by the Mekander Robo and Ryuusuke tells Jimmy to 
finish her off and Jimmy readies the Mekander but he suddenly sees the 
bracelet on Medusa and is stunned that it's the same as the one he has, 
the sign of the Rulers of Kanimedes which caused him to pause. This 
gave Medusa the chance to retreat and Jimmy wonders "It can't 
be...underneath that face is..." Ryuusuke asks why Jimmy didn't shoot and 
Jimmy apologized blaming it on him not being skilled enough.

The Kikaijuu and the Conquestor army are taken care off and Kouji note 
that's over. Bright tells them their purpose of visiting which is to 
gather up forces and Kouji gladly agrees to join. Folker asks "I've 
been meaning to ask... is this REALLY an army?" Emma says that it is 
and asks why back. Folker says "Warriors easily agreeing to help 
another's cause just like that is weird enough but you people don't 
even have the killer instinct ingrained into you" Riina says that this 
ship and team is special like that.

Episode 13

Deep underground, Keita is marveling over how wide the cavern is, he 
sees a robot and wonders if it's Federation material. It's pilot 
Hinoki note that it's Keichan (Keita) and wonders why he's here. Asami 
says that there are over 200 people here already even though Akamatsu 
note that it's still during preparation for the opening of the Organic 
Ceremony.  Asami says that there are 42 people already in the hospital 
because of injuries here and she wonders if Akamatsu wants to go greet 
them and Akamatsu says that he'll leave it to her. 

Asami says that they should begin their examination now which Akamatsu 
agrees to even though there are only 40% of the past data available 
from Modi Warp right now but it's definitely a case of Algernon as </pre><pre id="faqspan-4">
Asami points out. Akamatsu asks Hinoki if she's ready and asks what 
happened to Cactus. Hinoki says that he/she/it suddenly burst into 
maniacal laughter and went out into the cave which worries Akamatsu 
and Asami that Cactus seems to be displaying symptom of Algernon but 
why since in the Kakuseijin's Manipulate Box, the Ion Shield which is 
on par with the Barrier 17 kun Akamatsu developed should have been 
adequate protection. Asami note that they also have the protect 
function like the Amulet suit she's wearing

Asami and Akamatsu then theorize that Cactus must have contacted 
Algernon before entering the Neuronoid for this expedition.  Akamatsu 
wonders what to do since Hinoki alone can't operate the Kakuseijin. 
Hinoki tells Akamatsu that she's spotted a classmate, Keita, who 
approached the Kakuseijin and see that it is Hinoki in it.

Keita notes that it IS Hinoki, she's the only one who called him Kei-
chan since they were kids. Hinoki says that something is coming. It is 
a creature calling itself Chika. Keita wonder if they're going to be 
all right and Hinoki says that she'll do her best. Keita then ask how 
this thing work but Hinoki says that a normal person probably wouldn't 
be able to work it. Keita says that it's better than standing around, 
is this robot a Federation secret weapon? Keita enters and says he 
feels weird but Hinoki see the feedback and tries to move the 
Kakuseijin and it actually moved. Akamatsu and Asami are surprised by 
this too but Hinoki note that she can't move it quite well and tells 
Keichan to help.

Hinoki tells Keichan to say "I have Control" and he does and no they 
do not use the Royal Heart Breaker but the Kakuseijin changed mode and 
Hinoki tells Keichan to continue with the word "Break Synthesize" 
which Keita does. Keita says that this robot is really good but Hinoki 
corrects him saying that it's a Neuronoid, the Kakuseijin No.1
Akamatsu and Asami note that Keita is actually better than Cactus, the 
person that he replaced and he tells Keita that the Kakuseijin won't 
be able to move for a lengthy period of time so be careful. Hinoki 
tries to explain to Akamatsu but Akamatsu says that whatever the case, 
they have to take care of that creature Chika first which dismays 
Hinoki and Keita ask if they have to fight that thing with this.

Before much can happen, a mysterious being says "Our hope...danger..." and 
another says "The fruits of Nebula, it has to be used" and consumes it 
appearing in front of everyone. Asami named this being, Betterman. 
Hinoki can't believe it and Keita wonders what's gonna happen next.

Betterman or more precisely Betterman Lamia as the little girl Sakura 
later calls it attacks Chika and finishes it off which makes Keita in 
awe of Betterman and leaves. Sakura repeat what Lamia's comrade says 
and Hinoki tells Keita that it's one of Sakura's special ability to 
gain information from the Remipit Channel which is the wavelength of 
conscious thoughts that exist. Sakura says that there's more heading 
their way and Keita wonders what these things are. Hinoki says that 
one Kakuseijin is impossible against these odds. This is when the 
Agama team arrives which makes Keita in awe yet again. Akamatsu and 
team explain the situation to Bright who orders the deployment of the 
team.

Judo asks if this is the place where a case of Algernon happened, are 
they safe in deploying in such a dangerous environment? Akamatsu says 
that the Ion Field are working perfectly here so it shouldn't be a 
problem. Ru isn't too assured by this uncertainty but Asami says that 
the exact cause of Algernon isn't known yet so there's no real 
guarantee. Shou note that they'll have to chance it then with Marbel 
agreeing that they can't just leave these people to die. Bright says 
that they'll have to believe in the work of these people to protect 
them from Algernon and to focus on the battle.

However in the midst of battle, Galaria arrives saying that she's 
finally found the Dunbine. Shou ask if Galaria had been sent to the 
upper world too? Shou tells Galaria that if they fight here, the upper 
worlder will suffer but Galaria doesn't care about that.

Galaria and the monsters are defeated. Galaria wonders why she is 
tiring out so easily like this. Shou tells Galaria to stop or she'll 
make enemy out of the entire upperworld but Galaria doesn't care and 
retreats. Riina tells Shou that she thinks Galaria seems to be in pain 
and Shou note that Galaria is quite foolhardy for not listening. 
Bright asked what happen here and Akamatsu says that they're 
investigating a case of Algernon with Keita adding in that the mascot 
of Bottom The World, Chika chan appear to attack them and then there's 
Betterman, a Plankton found at the end of the 20th Century near the 
North Carolina River that can transform in a short period of time into 
a "better" form based on what they eat. They even have a human like 
form and consciousness. Everyone is amazed that a living thing like 
Betterman actually exist and Asami says that the name of the one they 
saw during fighting was Nebula but it's human form's name was Lamia. 
Bright asks what the connection of this Betterman and Algernon is but 
Asami says that that's unknown as well.

Bright says that they still have other things to take care of and asks 
to be contacted if Akamatsu and co. finds any new information since 
they're concerned that Algernon may be an enemy's bioweapon and they 
need to find a cure as fast as possible. Akamatsu agrees to that

Episode 14

At Nanbara Connection, Oleana has leads her Campbell forces for a 
final raid against it. Oleana is angry that if Garuda had been a 
little more competent, she wouldn't have to come here herself. She 
demands that Combattler V show itself.  Combattler V deploys and 
Hyouma wonder what that big statue is and Oleana tells them that this 
is their end but the Combattler team isn't going to take it lying down 
and Hyouma says that today he will defeat all of the Campbell forces 
on Earth. Juuzou says that goes for him too so why don't Hyouma let 
him pilot the Combattler just this once but Kosuke and Daisaku tells 
the two to stop bickering since they have to combine their heart as 
one for the final battle. Chizuru agrees saying that her dead 
grandfather, Combattler's creator Dr. Nanbara is probably watching 
over them so that this day would come where they would emerge 
victorious. Oleana says that she will rip them apart and sends her 
Magma Beast lackies to attack.

The Agama team arrives to help and the Combattler Team fills them in 
about Oleana. Bright orders everyone to deploy. Judo wonders if that 
goddess statue is Oleana but Ru reminds him that to them it's not a 
Goddess. Tetsuya says that whoever the enemy is, it's no match for 
Great Mazinger but Jun tells him not to be too confident. Daisaku 
agrees saying that Oleana's beam attack can be quite powerful. Quattro 
note that it doesn't seem to be able to move fast so that's one 
weakness they can exploit. Folker asks if statues on this world also 
have wills of their own and Camille says that it's special. Folker ask 
if it's ok to destroy it and Oleana says that she'll be the one doing 
the killing here with her Nalmag Beam.

The Titans remnant under Yazan also arrive to join the fight against 
the Agama team and Ru wonders why Yazan have Neo Zion MS with him and 
Yazan says that they have the same purpose against the Agama team so 
they've join forces. Ragan says that until they rebuild Neo Zion, he 
will not fall and he will not be picky about the methods used to 
achieve that goal. Yazan says that joining forces with others isn't 
just a specialty for the Agama team. Folker says "Fools, you join 
forces for thirst and vengeance?" and Yazan retorted that if Folker 
fells before them, he'd rethink over his view. Folker says that Yazan 
can try but Folker has always used his fist to change things. Ragan 
has to admit that the Agama team is indeed very strong and Van tells 
Ragan to give up the useless struggling but Ragan says that he has 
taken the first step towards his goals, there is no turning back. This 
annoys Allen who says that there are heaps of other things that he 
could do but Ragan says that he's here to gauge the team's measure 
today, he'll retreat for now.

Camille tells Yazan to just give it up but Yazan says that this is his 
vengeance against them, he won't quit until they're dead, next time 
will be different and he retreats yet again. Oleana is also being 
beaten by Combattler V but she says that she is not done for yet and 
calls for Garuda and Garuda appears. Chizuru note that Garuda seems a 
bit strange today. Oleana calls for Garuda to help out but Garuda then 
tells Oleana to make her peace and attacks her. Oleana ask if he's 
gone crazy but Garuda says that he is doing what's best for Campbell. 
Oleana ask if he's crazy enough to kill his own mother but Garuda says 
that he no longer consider her his mother and what's left for him is 
to fight on for Campbell itself. Garuda reveals the truth that he 
knows he is a robot like Mia, his destroyed assistant and he will 
stake his life as a robot against Combattler V. Hyouma and the 
Combattler team can't believe it as Oleana is finished off by Garuda. 
Garuda says that the talking statue is gone, now they face him but 
Hyouma is still a bit perplexed and ask Garuda to explain but Garuda 
is having none of that as he starts to attack.

Hyouma defeats Garuda and tells him to eject from his mech and the 
Combattler team agree since he's lost the battle, he doesn't need to 
lose his life but Garuda says that he is content to have fought them 
as a real Campbellian would have, right to the end which made Chizuru 
ask if what he said just right now means that he isn't one. Garuda 
confirms it saying that it's true that he is a robot. Garuda tells 
Hyouma and the Combattler team that this is a battle with no hate 
behind them, a fair fight to the end. He only wishes that he had 
realized things sooner before Mia had been destroyed.

Folker note that pride alone isn't capable of changing things, he 
wonder what is necessary in order to break free of the cycle of 
tragedies. Hyouma muse that he wished that he and Garuda had met under 
different circumstances and Folker agrees that Garuda was a very 
prideful warrior even if what he believed in was incorrect. Chizuru 
note that with this, the battle with the Campbell is over and Bright 
tells the Combattler team of the situation with the Shura and more and 
how he wants the Combattler to join forces with them once more. Hyouma 
agrees saying that Combattler V was built to protect the Earth against 
all threats to peace.

Elsewhere Galaria is wondering why she tires out so easily like that 
in her previous battle and is approached by Yazan about joining forces 
with him. Yazan offers her information on the Agama's whereabout and 
supplies to which Galaria considered and takes him up on it but tells 
him that she will not be his lackey to which Yazan says that that's 
fine, just as long as she helps attack the Agama.

Back at the Agama, Kouji greets everyone noting that they're all fine 
and Tetsuya note that Kouji's his usual self though Kouji says that 
with the endless supplies of Kikaijuu remnants that he had to deal 
with, he may be physically fine but mentally he's exhausted. Sayaka 
says that that's the same with Tetsuya, the Getter team and everyone 
with Hayato noting that he didn't really think that the Feds would 
just leave everything in their hands like this with no support. Ru 
apologizes for Bright but Benkei says that it's not their fault. 
Tetsuya turns the talk to Folker wondering if he can be trusted though 
Kouji pointed out that Folker's been with Tetsuya and the others for a 
while now isn't he? Hayato notes that there's one instance when they 
went to assist the Preventers that Folker seems hesitant on fighting 
them. Hyouma says that it's natural to be suspicious if that happened. 
Riina says that she thinks Folker isn't going to be a problem for them. 
It's true that he's clammed up about himself but what he fights for is 
definitely real and not some type of ruse. Kouji note that that's true 
and Folker's their friend now.

Elsewhere, Keita asks Akamatsu what this new robot is and Akamatsu 
says that it's the Kakuseijin No.1 and explains its original function 
and how it works. Yanaki and Kaede come in and help explains to which 
Keita and this writer is still hopeless lost on. Suffice to say it's a 
robot that can link with the person operating it and it has two modes 
and some sort of Electric shock hand thingy. Asami explains the reason 
why they need Keita to help pilot one of the Kakuseijin to help with 
the Algernon problem. Keita doesn't know if he's much help but Asami 
explains why he's necessary to the team and the Kakuseijin.  Keita 
agrees to it and Akamatsu says that he's asked for a helper to come so 
they can wait a while before tackling the Algernon problem again.

Back at the Agama, the Wing boys are admiring the Iadabolt and Folker 
asks what their purpose is. Heero cut to the chase and ask about the 
Iadabolt's connection with the two Shura General mech they saw. Folker 
says that the female looking one is called Delenes piloted by Meigis, 
the Ice General. The other one is called MarlDeg piloted by the 
Light/Brilliance General Alteis. However this is HIS problem and he'd 
like to handle it himself. Heero says that he's fine with the little 
info Folker's given them but it might be better if he opens up to his 
friends on the battlefield about this. Folker note that maybe he 
should.

At the Bridge, Bright and Emma are talking about the Algernon problem 
when Amuro contacts them. Bright asks if the Nu Gundam is finished and 
tells him their destination and reason which is to help Keita's group 
investigate the Algernon problem. This is because last time, a horde 
of UMA attacked and the Kakuseijin alone are badly inadequate to 
battle them. Amuro says that he will rendezvous with them there.

Episode 15

The team has arrives to assist Akamatsu's group with their latest 
investigation of Algernon. Asami says that aprofessor she knows who 
was studying Betterman had found an unidentified ruin from what she 
heard but he and his party have disappeared, and was found dead by the 
police while clutching a piece of paper in their hand which stated 
that they heard "that sound." Riina wonder what "that sound" is and 
Akamatsu says that the sound is the sound of Behemoth, the legendary 
monster. The team wonders if such a creature actually existed and 
Bright figures that the reason Akamatsu call them is to provide 
protection.

Deep in the cave, Keita sees what he says is a gigantic lizard and is 
startled like heck. Noin and Yanagi wonder if he isn't just imagining 
things. Hitomi and Sakura also couldn't sense anything with their 
ability but Asami says that it must have been a Plate, a small weak 
monster that lives in the wood but if angered, they'll turn into the 
fearsome Butta and then there's Chandy. Asami isn't finished 
explaining when a horde of UMA appears startling Keita even more. Jun 
notes that it's not this Behemoth monster they've been talking about 
but the ones they've encountered before. Tetsuya note that these 
creatures DO have a connection to Betterman and Sayaka wonders if 
these UMA are responsible for Algernon. Whatever the case, the team 
deploys to help Keita and Yanagi's Kakuseijins

Of course, this Behemoth thing also appears and everyone is quite 
shocked at how it looks with Folker even wondering if this is actually 
a living thing. Lamia saw the Behemoth and decides to appear to fight 
against it which makes the team wonder if Betterman really does have a 
connection with this ruin they're investigating. Quatre wonder what 
they should do and Duo says to let Betterman duke it out with Behemoth 
while they rescue Keita. However the Nebula form proves no match for 
Behemoth who sinks it in one shot dismaying the team. Ryuusuke note 
that it's extremely powerful in close combat so if they have to fight 
the Behemoth, they're better off striking at a distance to which Jimmy 
agrees.

The Behemoth makes a rush towards your team and Sene tells Lamia that 
the Nebula form can't win but Lamia should have known that already 
before engaging the Behemoth. Lamia says that it was his only recourse 
to protect the one he loved. Sene then says that if that's the case 
then stand to fight once more and that the things he desire shall be 
grant to him. Lamia notes that he has been given Forte and a new 
Betterman form soon appears in front of the team which makes Folker 
surprised that Betterman hadn't died from Behemoth's attack and Yanagi 
note that Betterman has evolved to combat the Behemoth with Sakura 
telling the team that this form is called Betterman Forte.

Forte dukes it out with Behemoth and more reinforcement arrives in the 
form of Amuro and Chien in the Nu Gundam and ReGz. Forte defeated 
Behemoth and the team note that the sound it makes is quite agitating 
to them. Asami explains that it might be for a ritual amongst its 
species and the sound it makes might be used to control the team and 
give them the same fate as the Professor's group if they had been 
exposed to it for much longer. Keita and Hinoki don't get what that 
means much and Betterman melts away leaving for another place. Yazan 
and Galaria however arrive to attack in the Behemoth's place.

Shou asks why is Galaria so insistent on fighting him when they should 
be working together to go back to Byston Well. Galaria says that since 
it's impossible and if she's going to die in a foreign land then 
she'll kill him first before that happens.

The team takes on the Titans/Neo Zion remnant and Shou tackles Galaria. 
Camille defeats Yazan and tells him to give it up but Yazan is of 
course too stubborn and this time he really bites it leaving Camille 
quite sad about Yazan and Jerid's fate. Ragan also bites it and 
screams as to why they lost and Judo says that it's because they were 
full of hate for the team which more or less makes this a foregone 
conclusion.

Galaria also is quite surprised that this place is where she dies and 
Shou tells her to get out of her AB but Galaria ask if they want her 
to live as a prisoner. Charm tells her to stop being so prideful since 
she's going to die if she stays there but Galaria says that she 
prefers it over being captured and goes boom with her AB (Sorry 
Galaria fans, this is the ONE SRW you don't get to convince her) 
Marbelle wonder if dying will take Galaria's soul back to Byston Well. 

The battle is over but Asami note that they can't do any excavation or 
research work here anymore but she plans on taking a few of the cells 
sample from the remains of the UMA to do some research on them. Bright 
says to give them a call once more if they need help.

At the dock, Shou is still agonizing over killing Galaria but Marbelle 
tells Shou that it wasn't his fault; Galaria was too headstrong and 
stubborn in her way of life. Shou says that they should have been able 
to talk things out but she didn't want to listen. Wufei asks if Shou 
always agonize over defeating an enemy like this. Duo says that while 
Wufei is quite bad at expressing his opinion without antagonizing 
people, he sort of agrees with Wufei on this one. Noin adds that 
agonizing over it won't bring the dead back to life and she notes that 
this Galaria woman doesn't WANT to listen in the first place. Van says 
that what Shou agonizes over is that he was in the same position not 
long ago. Shou says that what Van says is true, HE didn't want to die 
in Byston Wells, a foreign land to him which makes Meruru note that 
SHE doesn't want to die on the upper world too without making it back 
to Gaia, her homeland. 

Hyouma and the others note that that's true though Tetsuya says that 
it's still no excuse to let Galaria and the others go about their 
rampage. Kouji asks Folker about his opinion but Folker says that the 
Iadabolt has been acting quite strangely though Ryouma says that it 
looks the same though Folker says that its power and balance is a bit 
off as though the Iadabolt is in pain. Judo and Boss offers to take a 
look at it though Ru stops them saying that Junkmen like them would 
probably not be good for this task (they'll probably take it apart 
since they're not Lowe from Astray) Kosuke offers to take a look at it 
but Folker says that it's too dangerous so he'll have to decline but 
it's probably his imagination anyway. Amuro says to ask if Folker 
needs anything since he and Camille might be able to help. Folker 
wonder what's wrong with the Iadabolt anyway?

Meanwhile, Keita has gotten lost from Akamatsu's group and finds 
himself face to face with a mysterious girl who says that this place 
will become dangerous since Behemoth will come out soon. Keita says 
that Behemoth was defeated a while ago but he then saw a Plate which 
seemingly melded with the girl who keeps telling him to get out and 
Keita note that the girl is Chandy? (If someone wants to tell me 
what's going on, it's much appreciated since I have no idea) but 
anyhow Akamatsu finds Keita.

Elsewhere, Alteis greets the Shura King who more or less shows that 
he's still hale and hearty by more or less berating Alteis for his 
visit. Alteis asks why the Shura King have the Shuras move to this 
land while he recuperate, why THIS land? The Shura King laughs and 
asks Alteis if he saw the war raging in this land, they didn't just 
come here, they were called here by its war and strife. The Shura King 
then asks Alteis why he came to meet him and Alteis ask if the Shura 
King already knows. One look at the Shura King and Alteis says that he 
does not want to be like a puppet on a string dancing to that person's 
tune and the Shura King then says for Alteis to do as he wants.

Back at the Agama, Emma ask where they are going next and Bright says 
that it's time to take out the Omega Missile since most of their other 
enemies are laying low for now, it's the best time to take out the 
Conquestor's Omega Missile. Noin is opposed to this right now because 
even just getting there, they're liable to be obliterated by it and 
Bright says that they know the risk but they have to do it. Kouji and 
Tetsuya agrees saying that they have had it up to here with that 
missile (and the fact that they probably have to act as bait for the 
missile to blow up with them) They can't let the Conquestor keep using 
it for much longer. Bright note that it's all agreed but suddenly fate 
plays a hand as Emma report that the Shura Army is moving in to attack 
them.

Its leader is the one Folker called Meigis and suddenly Arion 
contacted them saying that they're serious about taking him out today. 
Folker says that it's quite rare to see Meigis together with Arion, 
what happened to Alteis? Meigis is quite annoyed that Arion 
communicate with the team without her order and she shout that Lord 
Alteis's whereabout is no concern for a traitor like Folker. Arion 
says that they're serious this time, so let's end things today. Judo 
can't remember who Meigis is and Ru has to remind him which makes 
Arion quite angry that they're ignoring him. Van ask if Arion isn't 
Fernando's underling to which Arion says that he's no one's underling, 
he's a free spirit warrior who no one can command. Meigis then says 
that Arion just don't bother to listen to order when they're given out 
that's all. Allen then says "I feel for you, Lady Meigis" and Hitomi 
note that it must be like taking care of a kid.

Folker says that they have no time to be bothered with fighting Arion 
and Meigis to which Meigis ask "We? Folker Albak, have you thrown away 
your pride as a Shura also?" Arion then says that Folker has renounced 
the way of life of a Shura which would only hurt Lord Alteis if he 
were to hear it.

Tetsuya then ask what this "way of life" entails which Arion says is 
to fight fight fight and gain great power so that the world bows 
before you. To be born fighting as a Shura and die fighting as a Shura, 
that's their way of life. Folker says that that way is wrong and Arion 
asks how they explain the Shura God they used then? Why are there 
those who can use it's power and those that can't? Why does the Shura 
God get stronger after more fighting? These are the proof that shows 
that the Shuras are born only to fight. Folker says that Arion doesn't 
understand and Kouji shout out that they can just get out of the Shura 
Gods and stop their stupid fighting. Arion says that it's Kouji who 
doesn't understand, for a Shura to stop fighting means destruction 
which is why he won't forgive Folker. Emma is confused about what 
Arion mean by not forgiving Folker but Meigis says that the time for 
talk is over and Folker will die here for Lord Alteis. Folker says 
that he won't die here.

Arion suddenly notice that something strange is happening in the 
atmosphere and Camille note that he feels quite bad, what's happeing? 
Emma says that this is something that is beyond previous experience 
when they jumped to another world. Meigis and Folker suddenly realize 
it and Folker shouted "This is Misaru's handiwork"

Episode 16

In another faraway land, Remuru leads Shion to a place that she says 
is forbidden for others not of their tribe to enter and says that 
they've probably escaped those people and Shion sees an Aura Battler 
resting in this place which Remuru says is the Sabine. Silky tells 
Shion to enter and Shion tries his best to start it.  A large army 
lead by the Black Knight arrives and the Black Knight says that Remuru 
won't escape from him and spot the Sabine to which Silky tells Shion 
to get the Sabine working and the Sabine moves. The Black Knight notes 
that this Aura Battler must be the guarded treasure of BaranBaran and 
tells his troops to capture it. The battle begins and in the midst of 
battle, the Agama team pops out surprising both sides.

Bright wonders where they are THIS time and Charm says that it's 
Byston Wells, she can feel it. Kin note that they've finally returned 
but Ni says that he's never seen this area before, where in Byston 
Wells are they? Folker wonder if this is part of Misaru's handiwork 
and Emma tells Bright that they've detected fighting close by with 
Aura Battler around. Bright says that this place is definitely Byston 
Wells. Kin tells Marbelle to look at the Sabine to which Marbelle 
notes that it looks a lot like the Dunbine. Shion of course 
misunderstand thinking that this is Raban's (The Black Knight) 
handiwork; does he want THIS Aura Battler so much?

Bright contacted Shion saying that it looks like he's not with Drake, 
whose troops does he belong to? Silky is surprised that they can hear 
something coming from that ship and Shion says that he doesn't know of 
this Drake they speak of, who are they? Ni introduce himself and says 
that it seems Shion's not with Drake, can he tell them how to get to 
the Kingdom of Ar, where are they anyway? Silky says that she's never 
heard of this Kingdom of Ar.  This surprise the Dunbine group and 
Marbelle wonder if this isn't Byston Well like they thought but Shou 
says that that's definitely a Ferario. Silky asks if they can get some 
help here first. Tetsuya then ask whose troops they're fighting, is it 
Drake's? Shion says that these are Raban's troop; they're after the 
treasure here. Camille ask Bright what they should do and Folker says 
that Shion doesn't seem like a bad person and they can't do anything 
much without more information.

Berana asks the Black Knight what that thing (The Agama) is and the 
Black Knight note that they've been lead into a trap which more or 
less prompt them to attack the Agama. Judo wonders why the other side 
is so willing to attack them and Bright note that they'll have to 
respond and deploys their troops. The Black Knight is flabbergasted to 
see so many Aura Battlers coming out from that ship; he thought that 
the Sabine and his own Aura Battler were the only two in existence. 
Amuro tells the Black Knight to retreat for his own good but the Black 
Knight isn't having that, he'll have the treasure to which Folker note 
that he'll die due to his greed. The Black Knight says that he'll have 
the team's Aura Battlers to add to his troops. The battle begins again.

Berana is taken down but she refuse to surrender and retreats to which 
Ru note that Berana's quite a forceful personality to attack their 
machine without fear with herself on a big bird like that. Koujirou 
says that that's someone they don't really want to fight. Garl is also 
defeated and he wonders why he lost to which Ryouma says that it's the 
difference between the powers of the weapons they use. Benkei feels a 
bit sorry for the big birds that the enemies are using as steeds 
though Hayato says that it was either them or the team.

The Black Knight (Raban) can't believe that his Swartz would be 
destroyed easily like this and Shion tells Raban to make his peace but 
suddenly Remuru's scream rings out because one of the Black Knight's 
men have captured her. Raban says that they will continue this later. 
Silky says that Remuru who is the princess has been captured and Shion 
plans to follow them but suddenly Meigis and her troops arrive. Kouji 
can't believe that they've been sent here also. Sayaka and Boss tells 
them that they should try to find a way back home first but it falls 
on deaf ear since Meigis says that it was probably Misaru who sent 
them here and their first priority is taking the Agama team out. Duo 
asks if the Shura have someone who can do this and Folker says that 
Misaru have never display this type of power in himself before but 
he's probably found a way to manipulate the loosening barrier between 
worlds. Shion is of course quite angry that the Shura have prevented 
him from following after Raban but Amuro tells him to be careful 
against them since they're not as easy as those big birds they just 
defeated.

Arion is defeated and Ru ask why don't he just leave it and start out 
a new life here since he seems the type to let the day goes by without 
a care. Arion says that that won't do and he'll get them next time. 
Folker wonder if there will come a day when they can just let the day 
goes by. Meigis is defeated and Folker says that Meigis can't win 
against them and Meigis says that she'll make Folker eat those words 
next time; she won't die until she brings his head to Lord Alteis. 
Tetsuya asks why Meigis is so angry at Folker and Folker says that he 
was the one who tarnish her lover's good name.

Bright note that they've send the enemies running but Silky says that 
the Princess is still kidnapped and Shion says that they have to go 
rescue her. Hitomi then ask where they are and Shion says that they 
are in BaranBaran. Normally he'd stay and thank them for helping but 
he has a friend to rescue. Heero ask if Shion knows where to go rescue 
her which surprise Shion and the team says that they might as well tag 
along. Silky says that that's not a bad idea at all, at the very least 
it'll give her and Shion a lot more confidence. Shion says that he 
doesn't want to involve them much further in this but Folker says that 
they need more information about this place anyway.

Hitomi wonders why she is feeling so uneasy like this, it's like she's 
in another world where she doesn't know anything at all.

Inside the Agama, Silky is talking to Charm saying that it's rare she 
get to meet her own kind to which Charm asks if there are no other 
Ferario in this world. Silky says that they are heavily reprimanded if 
they leave their forest like she did. Charm says that that's never 
happened to her and tells Shou that he saw a lot of Mi Ferario back in 
the Kingdom of Ar, right? Shion says that he definitely doesn't know 
of this Kingdom of Ar that they're talking about. These other Aura 
Battlers outside of the one he has and the Swartz also shouldn't exist. 
Chien asks what it means to which Ni has no answer. Ni is quite 
regretful because he thought that they could finally finish things off 
with Drake but they're stuck in a Byston Wells that isn't THEIR Byston 
Wells. Quattro note that this Raban is also piloting an Aura Battler; 
they might be able to get some more information from him. Bright says 
that they'll rescue this princess and capture Raban. Ru notes that the 
Shura might be an obstacle to that to which Judo says that he didn't 
think they'd follow the team to this world. Tetsuya tells Folker that 
he should come clean with everything as to why they want his head so 
much and why they don't forgive him.

Folker pause for a moment and says that it's because he's a deserter, 
a traitor to them. In all the history of the Shura World, none have 
ever dared stop fighting to gain the position of the Shura King. 
Sayaka note that this is the power to have the world at your feet that 
Arion was talking about. Folker continues that there are those who can 
and can't ride the Shura Gods, only those who can are granted the 
power to fight. Ryouma note that that's why the Shura consider 
fighting as their destiny. Folker says that he explained before how 
the Shura Gods feed on the lifeforce of its host to gain power and 
that the power grows over fighting like the Aura Battler because the 
pilot gets stronger. Kosuke note that that means that for the Shura, 
they equate fighting with living or existing so they need a reason to 
continue fighting. Juuzou ask if that isn't a BIG miscalculation for 
the Shura. Folker says that that's right; he thought it was a mistake 
and realized it when in a holy match against Fernando for the rights 
to become a Shura General. Shura have to win against many opponents in 
a holy match before they are awarded the title of General and through 
luck, his opponent was Fernando who is his brother. Riina says that 
Fernando is still alive so what happened?

Folker says that that's right; he defeated Fernando and the rules 
demands that he finished him off but he began to question why he has 
to kill his own brother, why do they have to continue fighting to 
become the Shura King. So with a head full of doubt, Folker says that 
he refuse to do so and set off on a journey to find out if there truly 
IS a way of life where Shura can live without fighting, that is the 
mission that he gave himself.

Tetsuya ask if him finally coming clean means that he's found this way 
of life and Folker says that by meeting Riina and the team, it seems 
that the answer he wanted is not too far away. Tetsuya apologize for 
making Folker remembers this tragedy and Folker says it's fine, he 
shouldn't have kept it a secret.

Elsewhere, a masked man note that the time that he has waited for is 
near and all living beings' pain will soon be over. Raban enter 
cursing the team which the masked man ask who they are and Raban says 
that they have an army of Aura Battler and a ship like the one here. 
The masked man ask if Raban is not mistaken and when Raban says he's 
sure and tells the masked man to think of a way to stop them, the 
masked man chuckles to himself and note that the time he has waited 
for is definitely here.

Elsewhere again, Arion ask if Meigis has calmed down and Meigis is 
angry at Arion telling him that if he's going to be working under her 
then she expects him to fight more earnestly than that and not run 
when he thought they'll lose. If she wasn't order to take him on, then 
he wouldn't be here. Arion grumble that Meigis used to be a lot nicer 
before falling head for heel over Alteis and joining him as a General. 
Meigis then threatens him with her sword and tells him to stop it. 
Arion then ask when their great general Misaru would deign to join 
them to which Meigis says she doesn't know and Arion ask if this 
wasn't part of the plan. Meigis grumble that she should never have 
left Lord Alteis's side for this stupid mission. Meigis then wonder 
"Could Misaru be planning to..." when Arion ask if she's figured out 
their great General's intention. Meigis says that she hope she's wrong

Episode 17

Shion and the Agama team have arrived at their destination, Raban's 
castle, and Shion demands that Raban gives back Remuru and have a one 
on one with him. Amuro tells Shion to calm down or he might not be 
seeing things clearly. Raban decides to deploy his troops and Bright 
note that they have a lot of those giant bird riding warriors. Tetsuya 
says that those things are no match for their mech but Jun tells him 
not to get overconfident. Kosuke agrees saying that those things like 
the Aura Battlers are hard to hit though Hyouma says that it's a 
little late for Kosuke to be scared. Kosuke says that he's just 
explaining the disadvantage against those things. Folker note that 
they should factor Meigis and the Shura appearing here into the 
equation also.

The masked man sees the Agama and recognizes it, wondering what it is 
doing HERE? He then suddenly thinks he has an answer and laughs 
maniacally. Raban tells his guard to put Remuru into captivity as he 
deploys to face the team. The Wing boys note that Shion is a little 
too caught up in his anger and will get overwhelmed noting that 
they'll have to catch up to him quick to provide assistance.

Berana dies apologizing to Raban that she wasn't much help. Meruru 
note that those bird things they're riding actually looks a lot like 
the Earth Dragon in Gaia and Van note so himself though it's a shame 
they were coopted by humanity here. Charm wonders if this sort of 
thing actually existed in the Byston Wells she knew.
Raban is defeated and Shion sees Remuru coming out of the castle 
calling out to him. Raban asks how she got free and Remuru says that 
the masked old man freed her saying that he will make this world go to 
pieces like he wanted. Raban note that he's been betrayed and leaves 
the Swartz. Shion says that he's not letting Raban escape and the 
others agree. Remuru says that she'll hide in a safe place and asks 
for everyone to pursue Raban. However the Shura army arrives making it 
impossible. Folker says that he told Meigis that he doesn't have time 
to play with her but Meigis isn't listening. Judo asks Folker if this 
fight is really necessary and Folker says that he really wanted to 
avoid needless bloodshed, the only fight he truly wants is that with 
the Shura King to end all this. Ru agrees to that so let's just repel 
these people which makes Arion says that Meigis is REALLY serious this 
time but Tetsuya answers that so are they.

Folker asks where Fernando is and while Meigis doesn't answer, Arion 
tells him that Fernando is elsewhere. Folker says that he won't kill 
Fernando or anyone else. He, Fernando and Brother Alteis will return 
to the time when they won't have to fight each other. This really 
enrages Meigis as to how low Folker can dirtied the noble Shura way 
like this but Folker says that before they are Shura, they are human 
as Meigis should understand. She herself somewhere must have wanted a 
life where she can live peacefully without having to risk her life and 
bloodied her hands everyday. Meigis stammer that that way of life can 
never exist but Folker says that he swore on his promise with Alteis 
that he will find a way. Meigis is angry that Folker uses Alteis's 
name like that but Heero, Riina and the others defends Folker saying 
that Folker is serious about this but Meigis dismiss it as just words 
of a weakling who is running away from his destiny as a Shura.

Folker says that if that's how she thinks then he's said all he wanted 
to to them and they can come fight him for he won't relent in his view. 
Arion goes down and note that the team really is quite strong though 
to his credit, he really doesn't feel into it and Tetsuya ask if Arion 
doesn't really want to rethink how he lives his life and Jun says that 
if he has doubt on the battlefield, it means that he shouldn't be 
fighting but thinking over what is important to him. Arion is quiet 
and says that they'll meet again.

Meigis is also defeated and she attributes to the difference in 
firepower but Folker says that it's actually a difference in willpower. 
Meigis asks if Folker is saying that she isn't giving it her all in 
this battle. Folker says that Meigis right now is full of doubts and 
she wouldn't win against him and the team like this. Folker explains 
saying that everyone who is gathered here on the team is not fighting 
for his or herself but for the people of their world. It's something a 
Shura never thinks about, fighting for the sake of others. What's 
driving the team is a lot different which gives them the motivation 
and will to win more than a Shura. Folker asks if Meigis can win 
against something like that?

Meigis is forced to admit defeat and ask if Folker REALLY thinks that 
he can bring back those days that he wanted. Folker says that that is 
the fate of he who has thrown away the ways of the Shura, he will make 
it happen. Meigis retreats and Judo hopes that she comes to an 
understanding and Riina tells Folker not to worry, she thinks Meigis 
will understand one day. 

With the Shura away, the team focuses on going in to the castle to 
help Shion against Raban and the mysterious masked man. 

In a part of the castle, the mysterious man notes that the Aura Road 
has begun a reversal; it's the same condition as "that" time. Raban 
bursts in extremely angry at the betrayal and the mysterious man says 
that even if Raban knows that, there is nothing he can do since Raban 
has been dancing on his string from the beginning. Raban says that it 
won't be like this which is when Shion bust in wanting to stop the 
both of them.

The mysterious man says "Goodbye world of Komon, it is time to be 
released from eternal suffering." Shou and the rest of the team bust 
in after Shion which cause a strange reaction in the man. Judo wonders 
what that pile of missile behind the mysterious man is and Bright says 
that those are nukes. Amuro wonders why nuclear missiles are 
stockpiled in Byston Wells. The mysterious man welcomes the Agama team 
which makes the team wonders how he knew of them. The mysterious man 
says that it can't be helped since he looks a lot different than when 
he first met them. The mysterious man explains that he plans to 
detonate all these nukes up in the surface world using the reversal in 
the Aura Road which might make the dimension distort even a little. If 
he's unlucky he'll die, if he's lucky, he'll get to return to the 
surface world. (what's left of it) Bright and team wonder if this 
lunatic is a surface worlder when Raban shouted that Shot's lunacy 
ends here and swings at him. 

Shot says that it is useless or has Raban forgotten that he cannot die. 
Shou and Ni are surprised, this man can't be Shot Weapon; can he? Shot 
says that they've finally remember. He hasn't forgotten for a day what 
happened, that he was cursed with this body thanks to the fight with 
the team. Marbel says that Shot is supposed to be with Drake right now. 
Folker says that if he's the real Shot Weapon, why does he look like 
that? Shot says that he was not allowed to be reborn and has lived 
ever since. Shot curse the team saying that the team will one day 
suffer the same fate like him, since he can't be the ONLY one being 
punished.

Shot says that if he detonates the missiles like plan, not only may he 
be able to escape this fate but he may be able to return to his former 
time. Shion shouts for him to stop, is Shot planning to destroy this 
world in the process also? Shot says that he doesn't care, the only 
peace he may find is in death which makes Folker wonder if Shot is 
planning to wipe out the world for his own needs and wants. Folker 
says that he won't let that happened but Shot says that it's too late. 
With this he will be released.

Elsewhere, Arion wonders what's happening. Arion asks Meigis if she's 
fine and she snaps at him then tells him to gather all remaining 
troops and report to Misaru since from the looks of things they're 
returning to where they came from. Arion wonders if the team is 
returning with them but Meigis says that those people are going to 
another place. Arion asks where Meigis is going and Meigis says that 
she has something that she has to find out; she only hopes she's wrong.

Sometime later, on another dimension, Bright and the Agama team has 
been transported to another dimension and Bright wonders where they 
are THIS time.
 Shion and Silky has also been sent there with the team and wonders 
what happened. Folker explains that they've been sent to various 
dimensions for a while now without wanting it. It's like the Aura Road 
but stronger as Charm points out. Shion wonders where they are then 
when Camille points out that something small is headed towards them. 
The small thing is a Ferario named El Fino who says that she's being 
followed by some creeps. Hayato note that with a Ferario here, it's 
probably Byston Wells and Ryouma asks Ni if he knows the location. Ni 
is lost for words but then guessed their location. El tells the team 
to follow her and Amuro note that since they don't know what Drake's 
been up to recently, it might be worth it to follow that Ferario.

Shou have a talk with Ni about the Shot Weapon they just encountered 
and Ni wonders about Shot's appearance which he can't believe. Quattro 
says that he sensed that the world they were just in was a bit 
different than their own worlds somehow so what happened with that man 
over there probably won't affect this world. (i.e. parallel worlds, 
Earth 1 and Earth 2 deal) Marbel and Ni agree that what they need to 
do HERE is to stop Drake from fanning the flames of war. 

Meanwhile, Meigis has arrived at Lord Alteis's place and is glad that 
Lord Alteis is safe and Alteis apologizes for worrying her by sending 
her to work with Misaru. Alteis says that none outside the Shura King 
can harm him but something bad had happened. Meigis ask if it's about 
Fernando and Alteis confirms saying that Fernando has disappear which 
might be Misaru's doing. Meigis says that that is distressing 
considering that Alteis has went to a lot of trouble vouching for 
Fernando. Meigis says that she will get Fernando back since Misaru is 
probably behind this but Alteis says that they cannot make a blatant 
move since Fernando might have gone with Misaru of his own will and 
Meigis says that she'll gather some information then.

Meigis then ask Alteis about Folker who said that he was fighting to 
fulfill a promise with Alteis and Alteis remains silent. Meigis 
continues that if this continues the worst will happen and all of 
Alteis's pain and tears will be for naught. Alteis says that he 
doesn't want both Folker and Fernando to do as he wants but he wants 
them to each live according to their own will.

At the Agama's hangar, Folker is surprised that the Iadabalt has begun 
to change and note that this must be what he felt before. This isn't 
just an ordinary change but a Jinka, a God Evolution. Folker explains 
to everyone who is watching. After a certain amount of battle behind 
it, a Shurajin will begin to evolve in return for absorbing a Shura's 
spirit in large quantity. Its form will change to reflect the soul of 
those who rides it. In a normal case, it would change to a form more 
befitting a Shura but this form is different. Quatre note that it 
looks like a pure, enlightened god of battle (meikyoushisui like in G-
Gundam). Riina note that if this form reflects Folker's soul then it 
means that it has received a strong will from Folker and has been 
reborn. It is no longer a bad Shura Jin (God) like the one the other 
Shura ride. Folker agrees that the new Iadabalt is born to change the 
sad fate of the Shura.

El tells Shiela that she's brought some good people with her and Ni 
wonder if this is Queen Shiela Pana of the Kingdom of Na. Shiela 
recognize the team as the surface worlder that appeared in the Kingdom 
of Ar. Amuro is surprised at how Shiela knew and El says that there's 
nothing Sheila doesn't know. Shiela says that many countries are now 
suffering because of Drake and her country cannot stand by and says 
that it is none of their concern. Ni doesn't really believe this is 
Queen Shiela but Shiela says that he must decide for himself as the 
one from the House of Kibun whether she is truly who she claims to be.  
Ni is surprised that Shiela knew of him and his House and Shiela says 
that Romun's death wasn't in vain since it made many other country 
takes note of Drake's activities. Silky tells Shion that they seem to 
have come to a different Byston Wells than their own and Shion says 
that it seems that they might have to make their peace about not 
getting back but Charm calms them down saying that they'll find a way 
back if they stick with the team. Van agrees saying that it seems that 
they're here because their worlds wants them to be here. Allen offers 
his sword and service to Sheila who accepts saying that she had been 
chased here by the enemy's plan. Bright then offers to take Shiela out 
of here and back to the Kingdom of Na. However a voice then rang out 
for Sheila to come out since she can't hide forever. Shiela note that 
it must be Drake's force and Ni ask if Drake has also begun invading 
the Kingdom of Na. Shiela says that with the team's help they can 
repel the invader and Bright offers to give it a try.

Episode 18

Shiela's pursuer is Ban Burning and he and his troops are surprised to 
see the Agama team appear because they were reported to have 
disappeared at Elv. Shou and the others want to know why Ban is 
pursuing Princess Shiela and Ban says that there is no longer anyone 
that will stop Drake's ambitions. It's only fair that other countries 
outside the Kingdom of Ar be regulated (Read: conquered). This makes </pre><pre id="faqspan-5">
the team quite angry at Ban and Drake's selfish reasoning and Ni says 
that they've assured Queen Shiela's safety but Ban says that he 
doesn't care about Shiela anymore. This is because the team has made 
him look bad to Drake many times over that he's going to settle old 
scores here. The battle begins and Ban's reinforcement arrives. Shion 
is quite astounded to see that there are so many Aura Battlers in this 
world. Ban asks Myuzi what she wants and Myuzi says that she's here on 
Shot's order. Ban then asks for her help in defeating the Agama team.

Myuzi is defeated and Kin wonder if they got her but Myuzi note that 
this is her first time in battle so it's to be expected and retreats. 
Shou note that another upperworlder has also been summoned by Shot and 
ask why is that person lending his power to Drake's cause.  Fei says 
that an unsellable actor like him gets to find out his worth in this 
world and Shou ask if THAT'S the reason he's willing to destroy the 
world and Fei retorted "What does a Jap like you know?" and dies. Shou 
says that it's not about being Japanese but it's about wanting the 
world to be peaceful.

Ban is also defeated and he is extremely angry at this. He notes that 
many upper worlders had been summoned so his Aura Power SHOULD had 
rise up too in all this warfare but it's not. What is it that he's 
lacking? Ni wonders if they got Ban and Folker says that he sense a 
dark hatred in Ban to which Marbel says that she hope they don't meet 
the likes of him again.

Shiela note that the team is strong and Bright then state that they'll 
head towards the Kingdom of Na but Shiela says that they already are 
in the Kingdom of Na, if the team will let her off to the edge of this 
"mushroom" forest thingy, she'll return to her Kingdom herself. Amuro 
says that that might be dangerous but Shiela says that the team must 
return to the Kingdom of Ar immediately since after the fall of Elv, 
Drake is targeting the Kingdom of Rau. They must stop Drake and Shot 
and Bishott of the Kingdom of Ku who has also started to move 
militarily in support of Drake.
 
Shiela says that the Kingdom of Na will begin to mobilize soon and 
they will meet again and they will have her full support then. Folker 
says that her word is enough to reassure them. However the Goblin 
tribe arrives and Commander Shiela wonders if the Kuwashika is here in 
a place like this and her subordinate state that according to 
intelligence, it is.

Shou wonder if it's enemy reinforcement to which Charm says to attack 
but Quattro note that they're acting a bit odd. The Goblin tribe 
notice your team and Kloizi wonder why there are so many robots here 
to which C.Shiela wonder if they're friends of the Landou Family. 
Hayato says that if they don't want a fight, they'd best retreat but 
before C.Shiela can retort, the Landou family and Acrobunch arrives.

 Tatsuya and his family says that the Goblin Tribe's beef is with them 
and Miki note that there's a lot of Federation mech here so maybe this 
IS someplace on Earth after all even though they've checked it out and 
it doesn't correspond to any place that humanity knew of. The team 
wonders if this is the famed Landou family and Jun-kun says that is 
correct and this is their home, the Acrobunch (with toilets and shower 
inside just like the Valstok and the Ardygun family) that Papa built. 
Tatsuya tells Jun-kun to stop calling him Papa but call him Dad. Hiro 
tells C.Shiela that she'd better retreat but C.Shiela isn't giving up 
on the Kuwashika that easily.

El has to note that Commander Shiela has the same name as Queen Shiela. 
Tetsuya says that if the Goblin Tribe is looking for a fight, they're 
willing to oblige and Kloizi is ready to attack your team. Reika tells 
Papa and Jun to give it their best shot and Tatsuya retort a bit 
peeved"Don't call me Papa." 

Kloizi is defeated and he shouted "I'll remember this" and C.Shiela is 
also defeated and shouts for her troops to retreat. Jun-kun says that 
they're getting away and Tatsuya decides to go after them with Miki 
wondering if they shouldn't search this place first for the Kuwashika 
but Hiro says that something about this place is throwing off the 
instrument's calibration which means the calculations that this place 
contains Kuwashika was wrong. Bright ask who they are and Tatsuya says 
that they are those who adventured after the Precious called Kuwashika 
and they must ensure it before the Goblin Tribe finds it. The 
Acrobunch leaves and Kosuke note that he's heard the name Landou 
before. Landou Tatsuya was a professor who stated about the hidden 
treasure of the Earth's past called the Kuwashika and Hayato note that 
from the looks of things, it seems to be true. Bright says that they 
should focus on what they'll do next and orders the Agama to move out.

At Drake's castle, Rimuru uses her status as Drake's daughter and his 
money to "borrow" a flyer from one of the solider. Meanwhile back at 
the Agama, Bright note that not knowing the status of the Kingdom of 
Ar is making their decisions difficult. Amuro asks Ni if he can find 
out quickly but Ni says that they'll have to gather intelligence on 
Drake's movement and that could take a while which is time they DON'T 
have. Kin says that it can't be helped since they've been away for a 
while going all over various dimensions. Chien says that it may be 
best to go to the Kingdom of Na where Queen Shiela is and work with 
them for a while but Amuro says that from Queen Shiela's words, things 
are pretty desperate in the Kingdom of Ar.

Emma suddenly notifies Bright that they've caught an intruder and 
Hayato says that it's a cute one at that. It's Rimuru who says that 
her dad has completed a gigantic Aura Ship that he plans to use to 
invade the Kingdom of Rau. Bright asks who Rimuru is and Marbel says 
that she's Drake's daughter and this surprises Kouji and Tetsuya who 
asks why the daughter of their enemy has come here.  
 
Rimuru says that Upper worlders like them are doing their best to 
protect Byston Well and she won't sit there and do any less. She knows 
that the feeling that her dad is a loving man is a view that she as 
his child holds but she can't ignore what he's doing to the world. 
Folker asks if it's certain that Drake is targeting the Kingdom of Rau 
and Rimuru says that she heard her father openly discussing it with 
Shot. Bright notes that they should head for the Kingdom of Rau but 
where in the Kingdom should they go?

Ni says that they should head for Ta Tara where Princess Ele retreats 
to (from Elv) since she might be able to help to which Drake agrees to.

Back at Drake's castle, the news about Rimuru's running away is 
spreading amongst the new recruits Jeryl and Allen from the UpperWorld. 
Jeryl notes that Allen has become a big worry wart ever since Fei died. 
Allen says that he doesn't want to get used and died unlike someone 
and Todd asks if they're implying about him but he's not dead yet. 
Allen says that he's not talking about Todd who's managed to survive 
after being shot down like that and crawl back here. Jeryl laugh if 
Ban also hasn't made it back and promotions are quick around here. 
Todd says that they can mock him for now but he'll show them.

Back to the Agama team, they've made contact with Eb of the Kingdom of 
Rau who authorized them to come in saying that Princess Ele wants to 
meet them. Bright then also asks for supplies and munitions since 
they're running low. Eb agrees and says that he'll throw in the Aura 
Battler Botune that they developed for the team to use.

Episode 19

At Ta Tara, Drake has moved his force in to take over the Kingdom of 
Rau and Duo note that it's a huge number and Ni says that he's never 
seen such a huge amount before and Kin wonder what they should do 
which is obvious to Heero who state that they fight to stop Drake's 
ambitions.

The team deploys and Shou note that even more Upper Worlder had been 
summoned.  Hitomi note that she senses a huge power waiting behind 
Drake's forces and Marbel attribute that to the Weil Wisp ship that 
Drake had built. Princess Ele then says to leave the Weil Wisp to them 
and to focus on the other enemies. Folker asks if she has an acekiller 
up her sleeve to which Princess Ele says yes and Bright tells everyone 
to repel the Aura Battler troops.

However Guymelef led by Eriya and her sister Naria arrives and they 
note that they're quite lucky to find the team here since they can 
make Lord Falken look good. Eriya and Naria contact the Agama and ask 
if the Escaflowne is on board, if so hand it over or they'll kill them 
all. Judo asks if they really think the team would just curl up and do 
that. Even more enemy troops arrive in the form of Todd and the Biales 
who says that he didn't think he'd meet the team this soon. Shou asks 
why Todd doesn't use his Aura Power for a better cause and Todd says 
that it's because Shou defected and thanks to Shou, he's been to Hell 
and back. Shou says that Todd is being petty and Charm says that he's 
just lashing out at others for his own problems.

Jeryl is shot down and note that this is the famed Agama team's power 
and Marbel ask if she understands what she's doing by aiding Drake and 
Jeryl says that it's making war right, as long as she gets to kill 
somebody she's ok with it. Marbel can't believe Jeryl's response and 
Jeryl says that next time she'll get them.

Eriya is shot down and she says that she doesn't feel quite in her 
groove today so she'll get them next time. Naria is also shot down and 
can't believe that she lost to the team; she'll do better for Lord 
Falken next time. Van noted "Falken? It can't be..."  Drake notes that 
the enemies are in disarray and now is the time for the Weil Wisp to 
deploy and enter Ta Tara conquering it. The Combattler team saw the 
Weil Wisp and Kosuke says that taking it head on is too dangerous and 
Drake reinforce this saying that if they don't come in large numbers, 
they'll never sink the Weil Wisp. However Princess Ele then says to 
concentrate all firepower on the Weil Wisp and for the Goraon to 
deploy. The Weil Wisp is hit by the Goraon's cannon and Shot note that 
the Goraon they heard of is also completed. Drake asks Shot how 
powerful it is and Shot says he sent Myuzi to investigate but there's 
no hard data yet. Drake notes that the situation have changed and for 
the Weil Wisp to retreat.

Todd is also defeated and he says that he didn't come back from Hell 
to just die and he'll get Shou next time. Shou asks Allen if he 
doesn't understand that he's being used by Drake and Allen says that 
he's allowed himself to be used by Drake in order to survive in this 
world just like Shou did but he'll kill Shou next time they meet.

The battle is over and Princess Ele thanks the team for their 
assistance but Ryouma says that they won because of Princess Ele but 
Princess Ele says that the Goraon is actually not completed and can't 
move. Goraon alone wouldn't have been able to defend against Drake's 
troops. Suddenly another Aura Battler appears and contacts them. The 
person in it is Kawasse Gu from the Kingdom of Na and he brings a gift 
for the team as thanks for rescuing Queen Shiela from Drake's grasp, 
the Aura Battler known as Billbine.

The team meet up with Queen Shiela again and Shiela urge them to use 
Billbine for their troops though Amuro is reluctant to take such a 
state of the art Aura Battler that costed the Kingdom of Na a lot of 
resources to develop but Shiela says that Shou Zama and the team are 
the key to victory and she just want the world to become peaceful 
again. Shiela asks the team if they have been visiting other worlds 
and Ryouma state that it's true, they've been to many worlds. Shiela 
asks why they think this is happening and Folker says they don't know 
which is why they're fighting to find out. Queen Shiela says that she 
hopes they do.

At Misaru's place, Misaru is informed that the Agama team has appeared 
which startled Misaru since he sent them to another dimension. Misaru 
is troubled that the Agama team is here when he doesn't know the 
mystery of the power in Gaia though it seems the key is the Escaflowne 
that resides with the Agama team. Misaru note that to further his 
plans, he will send them to Gaia.

 At the Agama, Bright note that they have to find a way to lessen 
Drake's power and Ni note that means destroying his various production 
plant such as the one at Ras Wol. The one at Ras Wol are making 
another Aura Ship from what he gathered. Bright decide to hit Ras Wol 
but again there is a light. Folker note that Misaru must be using his 
power to send them somewhere else again.

Back at Misaru's place, a subordinate informs Magnus that the Agama 
team was sent to Gaia by Misaru to a place called Astria and Magnus 
note that Misaru is getting adept at moving people between dimensions. 
The subordinate is a bit antsy that they don't get to go raise hell 
recently but Magnus tells him to wait since it's all going according 
to Misaru's plan and they'll get their chance to raise hell soon 
enough. They should concentrate on their current mission to capture 
the King of Freid which ironically is in Astria.

The King of Freid of course is meeting with Van who explained their 
current situation though the King of Freid is a bit hesistant to 
believe them and asks to use his own method, a spell, to determine the 
truth. Hitomi volunteered since she's more likely to be trusted to be 
truthful. The ceremony begins and Hitomi answers the question 
truthfully and says that they are from Earth, the Mystic Moon, she has 
the ability of Dowsing, to read the future,etc etc. The subordinate 
who conducted the experiment suddenly gets antsy and tries to get 
Hitomi to come with him but Hitomi suddenly says that this is his true 
form which is revealed to be Algo. Van and Folker wonder if Hitomi did 
that as Hitomi continue stating that 
Algo is a murderer who has many faces but none truly his own living 
and dying in war. Algo doesn't plan to let Hitomi live but Hitomi 
continues that Algo's flame of life is near it's end and Algo asks if 
it means he'll die.

Folker confronts Algo and ask what Misaru is planning though Folker 
says that he's not going to tell Folker and escapes. Camille note that 
there's a link between the Shura and the Zaibach Empire and the King 
of Freid says that if Zaibach is mobilizing then he'll be alert but 
first he must reprimands Allen for throwing away his position as a 
Knight to his Kingdom but Mirana also appears and tells her brother to 
wait since SHE has also cut her ties with her Kingdom since Zaibach's 
ambitions are going to ruin Gaia and not just the country of Fanelia 
but next on their list is the Kingdom of Freid. Her father, the King 
of Astria may believe that they can talk with the Zaibach Empire but 
does her brother think that Zaibach will leave Astria alone after 
taking every other country? Allen recognizes this and this is why he 
has chosen this course of action. The King of Freid commends Princess 
Mirana and says that Astria has itself a fine princess and offers 
Allen a position in their kingdom's knighthood to fight Zaibach. Allen 
accepts the offer and the King of Freid asks if the others plan to 
help out which goes without saying.

Episode 20

At the battlefield, the Zaibach army launches a full-scale assault. 
Van couldn't believe the numbers of Guymelefs that are appearing. 
Bright says that they can't run and for all troops to deploy and Van 
deploy in the Escaflowne with the others right behind him.

Alen note that it's different than the time they attacked the outpost 
in his country which makes Tetsuya wonder what THIS country's got that 
makes the Zaibach send in such a large force. Van thinks that it might 
be the Escaflowne but Kosuke doesn't think so saying that while the 
Zaibach DO wants Escaflowne, the numbers used are too much to just 
capture one mech. Folker note that that means there's something else 
that they want beside the Escaflowne and Jimmy says that whatever it 
is, they can't let the Zaibach have it.

The battle begins and the team defeats many of the Zaibach troops but 
suddenly Deilando appears with HIS troops saying that today will be 
the end of his dragon hunting quest. Alan asks Deilando what his 
objective with the Kingdom of Freid is and Deilando says that that's 
not for him to hear since HIS mission is to bring in the Escaflowne. 
Folker note that the Zaibach really DOES want something from Freid. 

Van of course gets extremely angry at Deilando at the Zaibach for what 
they did to his country and to other innocent people and Hitomi shouts 
for him to stop as Van suddenly loses himself in rage and in the 
Escaflowne and it starts to rampage out of control targeting Zaibach 
enemy left and right in a fury. The team do all they can to cover for 
Van and the Escaflowne but suddenly the Goblin tribe also arrives 
which startles the Zaibach troops that they've never seen such 
Guymelef before. Ryouma note that the Zaibach troops are in disarray 
which Kouji note means that it's time that family makes an appearance.

Speaking of the devil, the Acrobunch arrives and C.Shiela notes that 
they're persistent. Tatsuya says that they won't let the Goblin tribe 
gets their hands on the Kuwashika. Bright says that they meet again 
and Tatsuya apologizes for coming and going but they can't let the 
Goblin tribe get one step ahead of them in the search for Kuwashika.

Faa asks how they got here anyway and Hiro says that at first, they 
were enveloped by the light in Tokyo when the team was battling some 
enemies and with the dimension being stable right now, they've been 
able to move between Gaia and Byston Well in search of Kuwashika. 
Quattro asks what the Goblin Tribe wants with this thing and it's 
simple according to Miki, to conquer the world. Bright says that he 
understands the situation now and asks for their help in protecting 
Freid.

Deilando is defeated but Deilando begins to act strangely shouting 
"No...what's happening to me" Van shouted that this is the end and 
Deilando screamed and retreat. Alen wonder what's wrong with him, he 
isn't acting normal, even for Deilando but Judo says that he thought 
Deilando was nuts to begin with, he's probably snapped

This snaps Van out of his rage and he asked Hitomi what happened to 
him. Amuro explains that his anger got the better of him and he has to 
remember that this isn't his problem alone. Van takes in Amuro's word 
and apologizes to Hitomi for worrying her and Hitomi thanks god that 
he's all right. Hyouma says that Hitomi wasn't the only one who was 
worried and Chizuru says that Van gave them quite a scare and Van says 
that he'll pay off the debt by finishing the battle here.

C.Shiela is defeated and retreats. Hiro tells her to give it up but 
C.Shiela says that she'll GET the Kuwashika and show them all. Bright 
note that they held the line but suddenly more Zaibach troops appear 
and Quatre note that they can't hold them off much longer. The King of 
Freid commends them that they fought well even when this isn't their 
country but they have to get out now. Princess Miranda tells the King 
of Freid to get out with them since if he's still alive they can 
rebuild Freid and Alen tells him to forego the shame that comes from 
retreating for now. Jun-kun tells his dad that they have to retreat 
too and Tatsuya says that he knows that.

At Zaibach, Dornkirk note that with the fall of Freid, getting the 
Power spot is a certainty now but... Falken asks if Dornkirk is worried 
about the Dragon and assures him that he's got something planned to 
take care of it. Dornkirk tells Falken to capture the Dragon.

Elsewhere, the King of Freid has lead the team to a place saying that 
it's best that he showed them this place. Hitomi note that there's 
some sort of inexplicable power here.
The King of Freid says that these are Atlantis symbols and language. 
The secret that Freid is guarding from ancient time is the power of 
Atlantis that is all written here. Hitomi says that she can see it, 
all of it. The King of Freid continues that the people of Atlantis 
rules the Earth, water and the sky itself and Hitomi continues that 
the power was great and that they took to calling themselves Gods. 
They manage to convert thoughts to power and reign over the world 
called Atlantis. The King of Freid concludes that in the end, the 
power was too great and it caused the ruins of Atlantis. The survivors 
vowed not to use this power again and sealed it in the undergrounds of 
Foltna. 

The King of Freid then says that this sword which he now holds has 
been in the safe keeping of the monarchy of Freid since it is the key 
to the underground ruins. Tetsuya conclude that Zaibach must be after 
this power and the King of Freid says that they cannot allow this 
power to be used again. Kosuke note that Hitomi is awesome for being 
able to read these Atlantean symbols and language when HE can't make 
head or tails of it but Hitomi says that she didn't read it but more 
or less felt it. They can't let the power of Atlantis be awakened or 
Gaia itself faces destruction. Amuro note that if that's the case then 
they HAVE to take Freid back from Zaibach and the King of Freid says 
to leave THAT to him.He will gather the remaining troops and find a 
way to take back his country. Alen note that the team should focus on 
finding out about Atlantis and that the one who has the most 
information about it is the Zaibach army as Heero points out. Shion 
note that they have to attack the enemy's stronghold then.

Van however says that if they want to search about Atlantis, they 
should go to the Valley of mirage, a legendary place where the Ryujin 
people are supposed to have lived and supposedly the capital of 
Atlantis. Quattro asks how Van knows of this and Van says that he is 
the Ryujin people's descendant and shows them by sprouting wings from 
his back. Princess Miranda and the others from Gaia can't believe that 
the legendary Ryujin people actually have a descendant and Bright note 
that they should take Van's advice and head for this Valley of Mirage.

Back at Zaibach, Falken asks Eriya and her sister if they are fine and 
Eriya says that they have completed their trainings and they ask what 
happen with their subordinates that came back with them. Falken says 
that those people are bringing Deilando back. After some chit-chat 
Falken asks for their cooperation and the twins gladly gives it to 
Falken swearing their body and soul for Falken.



Episode 21

At the Atlantis ruins, Acrobunch is there, Tatsuya can't make out the 
meanings of the encryption even though they've certainly found 
something extremely important. The Agama team arrives. Bright asks if 
this is the Kuwashika that the Acrobunch team was talking about. 
Tatsuya says that that's not clear for now though what are the team 
doing here? Amuro says that they are here to check out the Valley of 
Mirage which contains the ruins of Atlantis. Van says that these 
encryptions are Atlantean in origin so this is definitely the Valley 
of Mirage or the Atlantis capital. Mirana asks what the encryptions 
say and Hitomi translates which surprises Tatsuya who asks if Hitomi 
understands this thing. Hitomi continues that the encryption says that 
they are the Ryujin people from Atlantis's capital on the Mirage Moon. 
This shocks Allen that the people of Atlantis are from the Mirage Moon. 
Hitomi continues translating  that Atlantis became too powerful when 
they created a machine that gives them power beyond the gods, this 
machine allows the convertion of thoughts into power to gain 
omniscience and omnipotence. (So THIS is what the Whispers in FMP were 
tapping into to build the Lambda Driver) Miki asks if the Atlantis 
ruins isn't Kuwashika (It's definitely a Precious with Hazard level of 
FAR FAR over 9000) (points for those knowing what the heck I'm 
referring to) Tatsuya note that that's a possibility.

Hitomi continues that the Ryujin have sprouted wings on their back and 
change their form when they birthed a new planet, birthed Gaia with 
their thoughts. Folker note that to birth Gaia with their wish is the 
answer behind Atlantis's mystery. Hitomi conclude that the Ryujin 
wishes that those who comes after them not repeat their mistake for 
Gaia is beautiful with clear sky, pure water, plentiful earth and a 
beautiful world. Bright asks if Zaibach wants to gain control of this 
power but suddenly the Goblin tribe appears saying that they'll be 
taking that power themselves. Commander Sheila notes that it was the 
right choice waiting for the team to arrive and decipher the ruins so 
now it's time for the team to die and then the Zaibach. As if and the 
team deploys to defeat the Goblin tribe.

The battle begins and amidst the battle, Falken calls out to Eriya and 
Naiya if they are ready and they deploys. Van shouted that it really 
IS his bigger brother Falken isn't it? How can he BE here since he was 
supposed to have died in his trial to become King of Fanelia and 
Falken says that it IS him, he had been revived thanks to Zaibach's  
science. Van asks why Falken didn't return to Fanelia then and Falken 
says that he agreed with Dornkirk's ideals and for Van to come with 
him. Van gives a less than favourable reply which angers Eriya and 
Naiya as to why Van wouldn't understand Lord Falken but Van says that 
he won't hear what this traitor has to say and he'll take revenge for 
the people of Fanelia. Eriya and Naria then plans to use force to make 
him submit.

The battle continues and Kloizy gets beaten, he shouted that he can't 
move; is this IT for him? He can't die here; he has to revive the 
Goblin Tribe. C.Shiela is also defeated and she lament that she 
finally found the means to revive the Goblin Tribe but THIS happened. 
Hiro tells her to get out and live her life amongst humans but 
C.Shiela says that she is a proud member of the Goblin Tribe; she will 
not descend to such things.


The team gives Eriya a good beating and she says that they're good but 
she's not finished yet. Falken however tells Eriya to retreat saying 
that he won't let her die here.

Naria can't believe that these people have beaten her THIS badly and 
Falken tells her to retreat also saying that she won't last long like 
that.

The battle is over and Folker says that he can't believe that Zaibach 
is eyeing something THIS huge and Hayato says that they don't know how 
much Zaibach knows about Atlantis's secret but it's certainly 
something they have to take seriously. Ryouma wonder what they can do 
against Zaibach since they were overwhelmed by Zaibach's number at the 
battle of Freid and Tetsuya note that they have to be quick (i.e. a 
surgical strike) against Zaibach otherwise the difference in number 
will defeat them. Allen says that they should return to Astria since 
it is the only country capable now of resisting Zaibach. Bright wonder 
if King Aston will agree to mobilize considering he's trying to get 
Zaibach to overlook his Kingdom but Allen says that the case of Freid 
should be an eye opener for the King to reconsider even though there's 
no hard evidence.

Tatsuya asks if he and his family can tag along since Atlantis might 
be the Kuwashika that they've been searching for. Bright says that 
it's ok since they need as much firepower as they can get. Ryou also 
note that they can't just ignore the world being in danger.

Back at Zaibach, Dornkirk questioned Falken as to why he didn't more 
effectively used the fate-enhanced soliders and Falken stated that 
those two (Eriya and Naria) are already at their limits and Dornkirk 
suddenly muttered that the rejection has finally started which makes 
Falken ask what he's talking about. Dornkirk explains that those two 
received treatments and training to enhance their fate/fortune but of 
course for every action comes a reaction so misfortune is starting to 
flood in to their lives. Falken asked if Dornkirk knew about this but 
Dornkirk says that he didn't but the results should be very 
interesting to watch.  This of course pisses Falken off.

Meanwhile Misaru is being briefed about Dornkirk and Zaibach's 
objective over the Atlantis ruins and Misaru note that if he has such 
powers under his controls then he can defeat the Shura King and take 
over all the worlds. Misaru tells Algo to go to Freid and steal the 
treasure of Freid. Magnus then complains that he wants to do something 
since he's been sitting on his ass for too long and Misaru orders him 
to go to Astria and bring the dragon (Escaflowne) from the Agama team 
to him alive but he can kill the rest, he'll lend Magnus some of 
Drake's soliders. Magnus says to leave it to him though Misaru note 
that if Magnus was more useful then he'd used him more.

At the Agama, Falken has arrived and has asked to surrender himself to 
the team, he needs their help. Van ask what his big bro is planning 
this time and Falken says that he has to change the fate of those 
craving the bloods of others in order to bring peace to Gaia. Bright 
asks if Falken knows what he's saying since Falken betrayed his own 
country and people and even more such as the people of Astria, the 
people of Freid and such.

Falken says that Dornkirk's ideals were not wrong; he had planned to 
understand how fate worked and use it to change the world to move it 
like he wanted like the people of Atlantis once did. Hitomi says that 
to tamper with fate is wrong and Folker added that what happened to 
Atlantis is a good example or does Falken have a way to completely 
prevent that

Falken says that discontent will always breed and he wants to change 
that to create a new world where there is no hate and fear. Falken 
tells Van that he wanted to cut the fate of fighting for Fanelia away 
from a kind boy like Van so that they may see this new world together. 
However he has come to realized that Dornkirk's way of achieving this 
was wrong.

The team decides to believe Falken and Amuro asked what Dornkirk's 
next target is which Falken says is ironically, the team itself. In 
order to complete his fate-altering machine, Dornkirk needs the 
Escaflowne because the Escaflowne is a part of the Ryujin's legacy. 
Tetsuya note that it's simple once you think about it, Dornkirk needs 
the legacy of the Ryujin who are from Atlantis to run this machine of 
Atlantis. Quattro asks when the Zaibach army will arrive to take them 
on and Falken says that they should be here soon once they learned 
that he has failed (and betrayed them) Bright orders everyone on full 
alert and to prep their mech and Eriya and Naria who has tagged along 
says they'll fight on Lord Falken's behalf.

Back at Zaibach, Deilando has awaken and asked where he is and where 
all his subordinates are, the beastman answering him tells him that 
they are all dead and he is Jyajyuga, Deilando's remaining subordinate. 
This makes Deilando screams and after all that, he asks Jyajyuga if 
his new Guymelef is ready for battle. Jyajyuga says it is and Deilando 
says that it's been a while since he went out to fight.

Episode 22

The Zaibach army appears ready to confront the Agama team but Falken 
says that the number isn't as much as when they invaded Freid but the 
general leading the attack mocks Falken who is a traitor saying that 
they have new model Guymelef with them so there is no one that can 
stop them now. Falken says that even so, they are too low in number 
and it seems that this is all the forces they can muster up right now 
excluding Deilando. Allen note that that means Deilando alone might be 
the reinforcement which means it's not much.

The team deploys and the Mechander team wonders how they're going to 
handle it. Ryuusuke suggest that even though the enemies have new 
models, they're based on improvements to old designs which means fast 
mobile close ranged attackers and Noin and Zechs adds in that they 
have those annoying Stealth Mants. Quattro suggest that they hit those 
without the mant from afar as much as they can and have their own 
close ranged experts (Deathscythe, Escaflowne, Billbine, etc) handle 
the enemy's close ranged Guymelefs.

The battle begins and sure enough, Deilando appears in a red Guymelef 
ready for a final fight with the team. Jyajyuga is defeated and tells 
Deilando that this is it for him, Deilando screams for Jyajyuga to get 
out of there but Jyajyuga says that this is enough for Deilando too 
and he begs him to return to being the kind Selena. Deilando utter the 
name like it means something to him and Jyajyuga died telling Deilando 
to be happy.

Deilando screams Jyajyuga's name and Ryouma wonder what's up with 
Deilando and Folker note that he's starting to act quite strange. 
Allen having heard the entire ordeal can't believe it, "It can't 
be...Selena? Selena?"  Deilando then mutters "What am I doing here, 
where am I?" and he then shifts into a she. Allen shouted "Selena!!" 
Selena then answers "Big brother, where am I?" Mirana then asks if it 
is truly Serena and Allen says that it's been 10 years but he's 
certain of it. Mirana then asks Bright to retrieve Serana/ Deilando.

The battle rages on and Magnus and his troops arrived, with them is a 
mysterious "Black Knight." Magnus seemed a bit surprised to find the 
team fighting the Zaibach army. Folker asks why Magnus is here and 
Shou wonder who is piloting that new Aura Battler that they have. 
Magnus ask which mech of the team is called the Dragon and Van asks if 
he's talking about the Escaflowne. Folker reasoned out that Misaru 
must also want the power of Atlantis and Magnus says that it's none of 
Folker's concern. He never DID like Folker from the beginning; someone 
who was pampered under Alteis is now saying that he's going to end the 
lifestyle of the Shura? 

Hitomi argued that isn't it better if they can live without fighting? 
Magnus says that he doesn't care; he wants to fight whenever he want, 
whoever he wants and begins to complain that being under Misaru's 
order is quite restricting for him to have to wait to express the urge 
to fight. Folker says that that's just savage animal instinct and he 
won't lose to him.  Magnus ask if that's ok with Folker since he's not 
guaranteeing Fernando's safety. Folker ask what that meant and Magnus 
says that if Folker agrees to die by his hand, maybe he'll tell the 
Agama team before he crushes them.

The team note that Magnus really does sound like a bad guy and there's 
no way they'll trust him which means it's time to kick his blubbery 
ass. The Black Knight tangles with the team and Marbel note that his 
Aura Power is quite strong and Shou wonder if it's another upper 
worlder like them and the Black Knight says that they are no match for 
the Swartz and that he's tested the Swartz's capability enough for 
today and he retreats.

Marbel note that it's an evil hate filled aura and Shou asks why Charm 
is shivering and she says that this Aura is different from all the 
ones that she encountered before, it is pure malice and hatred.

The team's combined attacks prove too much for Magnus and he can't 
believe that he's going to die. Folker tells Magnus that for Misaru, 
Magnus is just a pawn to be sacrificed. Magnus wouldn't believe 
Folker's word but Folker says that the fact that Magnus wasn't told 
about the team fighting the Zaibach army but Misaru definitely knew 
about it proves it. To Misaru, if Magnus succeed in capturing the 
Escaflowne, that's good but if not, he'd prove useful in buying time 
for Misaru's plan. Folker tells Magnus to go to hell knowing that.

Bright asks what Folker meant by buying time and Folker says that 
Misaru's other troops are probably attacking the Zaibach army 
elsewhere right now to steal the machine that can turn wishes into 
power/reality. Tetsuya note that they have to get there quickly then 
and Folker agrees saying that Misaru can't be allowed to have that 
machine.

Meanwhile, Allen asks why Selena had become Deilando though Selena has 
no idea what her big brother is talking about and Falken says that all 
he heard when he was with Dornkirk was that Deilando had been a test 
experiment for Dornkirk and the magicians ever since he was little. 
Folker wonders if Zaibach have the power to change someone into 
another person entirely.

Anyhow, Allen decides to ask Princess Mirana to take Selena back to 
Astria since they can't take her where they're going. Princess Mirana 
reluctantly agrees and tells Allen not to die. Folker says that they 
should hurry to the capital of Zaibach though Kouji wonder if the 
Shura are really there trying to steal this machine and Folker points 
out that with Magnus ordered to capture the Escaflowne, the odds of 
Misaru knowing about the power of Atlantis and Escaflowne's connection 
with it is very high and Misaru isn't one to let something THIS 
attractive pass by, the other proof is that Algo isn't here.

As the Agama heads out, Bright is informed that Hitomi and Falken are 
missing; they were here during the fight with the Zaibach army but 
have mysteriously vanished. Folker is distressed since they have to 
head to the Zaibach capital right away but Van says that Hitomi is at 
the Zaibach capital, he doesn't know why he knows but he's sure of it. 
Bright says that they'll trust Van's instinct and continue heading 
there at full speed but Van says that he'll go on ahead in the 
Escaflowne

At the Zaibach capital, Dornkirk greets the abducted Hitomi saying 
that the pieces are all in places for his Atlantis willpowered fate 
altering/manipulation machine (Lambda Driver) to work and bend the 
world to his will. He tells Falken that he made it so that Falken was 
fated to abduct Hitomi here. Falken is furious and asks Dornkirk just 
how much is he going to keep mucking with fate and Dornkirk says that 
that is a stupid question since Falken knows full well his true 
intention. Falken retorted that Dornkirk should then also know about 
his resolve and Dornkirk asks if Falken is going to kill him. Dornkirk 
then tempts him to do it even though Hitomi scream for him to stop but 
she's too late as they both hit each other and Falken says that with 
this, the battle is over and he wish for Van to bring true peace to 
Gaia.

However another spectator arrives in the form of Misaru who smirks 
that he didn't think that something this beneficial to him would 
happen and Hitomi asks what is he planning to do and Misaru says that 
he will use this machine to turn Gaia into his personal Shura World. 
Misaru then says that Algo seems to have succeeded in stealing the 
sword and the power of Atlantis is being released to empower this 
machine. While he can't hope to control all of this power, he can use 
it to start the machine and even if the machine DOES go haywire, he's 
fine with that since strife and chaos in this world is what he wants.

Misaru then tells the (Lambda Driver) to make his wish a reality. 
Hitomi shouts for him to stop but Misaru says that she can't do 
anything since the machine has started. Hitomi shouted that she alone 
might not be able to do anything but she believed in Van and the Agama 
team. Right on schedule Van arrives to rescue Hitomi and stops Misaru 
from using the power of the (Lambda Driver.) Misaru can't believe that 
Van and Hitomi's combined will and wishes are stronger than his 
ambitions.

Meanwhile back at Byston Wells, Shiela wonders why her heart is 
beating so fast as El and Belle tells Shiela that Ele's Goraon has 
arrived to rendezvous with her Gran Garan. Kawasse note that from the 
Goraon's warlike appearance, they possibly can't hide the fact that 
it's a war machine from the Ferario's chief Jacoba Anon. Shiela asks 
Kawasse if the Gran Garan is ready to launch and Shiela orders him to 
get everyone on board quickly, she has a pretty bad premonition as to 
what is going to happen next. She tells Kawasse that the Ferario 
forest that they are in won't stand for having war machines like this 
in this world much longer and Kawasse hastily relays Shiela's order.

Back in Gaia, a voice is heard which surprises Misaru as the voice 
states "Disappear!!" "All of you whose evil Auras are tainting these 
lands" "Until the day when either by your own power or by other means 
you manage to find a place of peace for yourself" "Rid yourself of 
these infernal machines that is the source of your evil" Misaru is 
incensed and demands the voice to reveal itself but suddenly there is 
a flash and Misaru note that the rift between dimensions is opening.

Misaru is surprised to find himself back in the Shura's dwelling up on 
Earth which surprises Alteis and Meigis. Misaru and Algo say that they 
were flung through the dimension from where they are and Meigis ask if 
it was Misaru's own doing but Misaru says it isn't. Alteis wonders if 
it was the works of the Shura King but Misaru says that before he was 
flung here, he heard a female voice. Algo can't believe someone other 
than the Shura King is more powerful than Misaru and Misaru tries to 
open the dimensional rift to get back to Gaia and Byston Wells again 
but is unable to do so. Misaru then out of spite says that he was done 
with those worlds anyway and asks if Alteis is free to accompany him 
for a task he wants to do and Meigis demands to know what Misaru is 
planning.

At the Agama, Hitomi finally awaken to find Van and the others around 
her, she asked what happened to Gaia and Van says that he destroyed 
the "Lambda Driver" machine but they're not sure what happened next 
but it seems that they've been flung back to the upper world. Prof. 
Shikishima contacts the Agama and Bright asks how far the plan to stop 
the Omega Missiles had progressed during their disappearance? Prof. 
Shikishima says that the Feds are fully prepared with counter measures 
for Omega Missiles and everyone note that it's time. Ryuusuke who is 
Shikishima's son is silent and then says that he doesn't think that 
this plan has a chance of succeeding and that they would come out of 
it alive.

Prof.Shikishima then tells his son that no plan has a 100% success 
rate, death is always a risk. Ryuusuke says that he knows that but the 
risks are too great this time but Prof. Shikishima says that even 
though the odds of success are a thousand or even a million to one, he 
wants them to go through with this plan. Ryuusuke asks if his dad is 
telling them to go die. Prof. Shikishima says that if he wants to put 
it that way then yes. They are the Mekander team who fights for the 
Earth and he wants them to always remember that they might have to 
sacrifice their life in order to defend it. Bright comforts Ryuusuke 
saying that they'll go with this plan but no one has any intention of 
dyin, they'll find a way to make this plan succeed.

Episode 23

The mission to destroy the Omega Missile launching base is under way 
with the Federation using an electric signal to confuse the missile 
from locking on to any nuclear power source for five minutes which is 
the window of time the Agama team have to destroy all the bases.

 Kouji says that if the Conquestor can't launch the missiles then 
they're a pushover for the team but Ryuusuke cautioned him that this 
is a pretty big offensive that the Earth is taking, there's no way the 
Conquester won't be aware of this. If the base where the electric 
jamming signal is taken out then the Agama is a sitting duck. Bright 
prepares the Agama for launch; they'll decide things in five minutes 
but suddenly the Conquestor's Omega Missile base appears on Earth. 
Everyone wonders what's going on though Heero note that it saves them 
the trouble of going out into space to take care of it. Professor 
Shikishima contacted them saying that the Conquestor has learned of 
the Fed's offense and decides to attack with the Missile base. Folker 
note that the best defense is an offense and Hyouma decide that 
they'll decide to respond in kind though Chizuru wonder if the 
Conquestor have some tricks up their sleeve though Tetsuya says that 
whatever it is, they'll have to deal with it on the fly and Quattro 
agrees since they only have five minutes now before those base fires a 
missile at them and it's gameover.

Bright orders the team to launch and the battle begins with the team 
downing a lot of bases. Reika then note that the bases are beginning 
to move and then the bases gattai to form a monster. Shou note that 
this makes the battle much easier since there's only one target to hit 
but then the Shura along with Fernando appears saying that they won't 
let the team do that. Folker asks Fernando if he plans to still fight 
him but Fernando asks what Folker's talking about, Folker is a traitor 
to the Shura and must be destroyed. Folker asks Fernando what's wrong 
with him since he seems a bit odd as Fernando says that he'll destroy 
Folker to become a General and kill everyone. Even Arion wonders what 
happened to Fernando ever since Misaru got his hands on him, he must 
have done SOMETHING. 

Folker then attacks Fernando and demands to know what is wrong with 
Fernando since Fernando isn't usually this kill happy but Fernando 
says what's wrong with that, all Shura are born to fight and kill and 
strive for the position of General. Folker wonders what changed 
Fernando like this but Fernando tells him to shut up and fight and die.

The Mekander team approaches the monster and Mekander flamed it to a 
crisp. Arion also meets his end and he notes that this is the end for 
him, it's been fun. Folker tells Arion that he doesn't have to die, 
just make an effort to get out. Arion says not to order him around, he 
is Arion and whether he dies or lives is of his own choice. Arion 
tells Folker that he is quite a cheater being a peaceful Shura but 
having that longing for peace brings him so much power. Arion says 
goodbye to Folker saying that one day when they meet in the great 
beyond, he'll be the winner next time.

Fernando then says "What a redundant moron" which perks Folker's ear 
and Folker says that he won't be hesitant anymore, he'll defeat 
Fernando and Fernando says that Folker can try. Folker then smirks and 
says "How about revealing your true face..." "You can't fool my eyes" 
"Fernando" then asks how Folker knew that he wasn't really Fernando 
and Folker says that he hasn't forgotten Fernando's fist (The way of 
the martial arts, fighter recognize, communicate, etc with their fist) 
"Fernando" reveals himself to be Algo who says that he didn't think 
Folker had gotten this strong and Folker says that the power of belief 
has made him stronger. Algo then says that when the REAL Fernando 
awaken then Folker wouldn't be talking big like this and Algo note 
that this is it for him, looks like what that girl said was true.

 Algo wishes that when he is reborn in the next life, he has his own 
face and his own mind and heart and then he dies. Folker shouts to the 
dying Algo demanding to know what happened to Fernando. The battle is 
over and the Acrobunch team is tired saying that they didn't think the 
Shura would join in to make their life more difficult but Bright says 
that with the Omega Missile out of the way, they're free to move about 
the Earth and Jimmy tells the Conquestor that nothing's going to stop 
them now.

Bright notes that the problem of Algernon still exist so he'd better 
touch base with those investigating it.

Back at Akamatsu, Asami tells Akamatsu that they've finally located a 
sample of the Flower, Anims which is pretty much called the Death 
Flower and with it she's found a clue to the identity of the UMA. 
Akamatsu asked how they're related to Algernon and Asami says that to 
confirm her suspicion, she's going to the B.P.L. (which is a lab 
specializing in biology or something like that)

Drake's forces have also been sent up to the Upper world and Drake 
notes that they can't make a big move without knowing the situation. 
Jacoba really messed them up good but if that's how it has to be then 
he'll bend the upperworld to his will. A subordinate tells him that 
they've located the Gea Garring and what's more is that Drake's wife 
is with the Gea Garring. Drake wonders why his wife is there and the 
subordinate wonder if she's been sent there when they were banished 
but Drake says that's impossible since all his troops have landed in 
the same place as him. Drake then note "I see....Luuza, you..."(traitorous 
b****)  and Drake orders his subordinate to get ready to rendezvous 
with the Gea Garring.

Bright has gotten in touch with Akamatsu who has filled him in on his 
problem that he can't contact Asami or Mody Warp and that she said 
something about knowing the UMA's true identity and going to B.P.L. to 
find the truth. Folker note that someone might be trying to silence 
her and Akamatsu note that he and his team are headed there and Bright 
says that they'll go meet up with Akamatsu once they finish up some 
stuff here.

Elsewhere Shiela asked Kawasse if they can't get in touch with the 
Goraon or the Agama team yet and Kawasse says that there's a strange 
magnetic wave in the air that interferes with communication (Minovsky 
Particle) Shiela turns the conversation towards the distress called 
which is about the Gea Garring in France enslaving its people to work 
for Bishott. Kawasse thinks it might be a trap to lure them out but 
Shiela doesn't think so since it seems that the distress call that 
they picked up was trying to reach those like the Agama team for 
reinforcement. Shiela note that while it might turn France into a 
warzone, they have to go drive Bishott away since they owe the Agama 
team one and Kawasse readies the Gran Garan for take off. Shiela noted 
sadly that in war, it is always the civilians who are hit the hardest.

At B.P.L. Asami is meeting with a Professor whose name I can't read </pre><pre id="faqspan-6">
nor am I going to try so we'll call him the Creepy Professor. Asami 
note that it's been four years since meeting him. C.P. says that he's 
seen the things that Asami brought to him and Asami says that B.P.L. 
is the leader in this field of research so she'd like to hear C.P's 
thought on the UMA since he is the leader of B.P.L.  C.P. tells Asami 
that they are like spiders and other insects and its traits and then 
he asks her opinion on Betterman. Asami state what she knows about 
Betterman Lamia and how Lamia can change its form to better fit a 
situation or environment by eating something to change its form. C.P. 
then says that he knows a lot about that and shows Asami the flowers 
of Anism or the Nebula seeds. C.P. says that Asami really should 
return to her lab.

It gets a bit weird after that with Asami commenting on the smell of 
the flower of Anism and C.P. offering her one to eat and she does 
saying it's delicious and C.P. saying that she can have as much as she 
wants (This must be one of those WEIRD moment) (Can anybody tell me 
what the heck this is about?)

At the Agama, pictures of what's happened in Paris has reached the 
team and Shou note that it's a Drumro with Marbel noting that Drake's 
forces have also been shunted to the upper world. Amuro tells Bright 
that they've confirmed the Weils Wisp's location and that it and the 
Goraon will soon collide with each other. Shou says that there's 
another ship in Paris and he's not sure if it's hostile or friendly. 
Bright note that they really have to go help Akamatsu but these 
situation are also calling for their attention.

Episode 24

At Paris where the French have surrendered, the Gran Garan arrives 
ready to free it's inhabitant from Bishott's Gea Garring. Bishott 
demands to know what Shiela is thinking, is she willing to sacrifice 
this town and it's people? Shiela says that these people are the one 
looking for salvation. Bishott says that these people are his hostages, 
he'll kill them if need be and Shiela says to go ahead and do it since 
these people have already prepared for the worst. (And Bishott 
wouldn't survive if he start killing hostages and inciting a riot) 
Bishott note that having hostages meant nothing to Shiela so he'd 
better not press that point any further and deploys the Aura Battler 
to down the Gran Garan.

Belle and Elle note that there are lots of Aura Battlers and that the 
Gran Garan can't take them all on and beg Shiela to retreat but Shiela 
says that the lives of many upper worlders are at stake and they 
wouldn't retreat. Shiela tells Kawasse that since they don't have Aura 
Battlers to deploy, they will rush forward and target the Gea Garring.

The Agama team arrives and Bright note that the Gran Garan has arrived 
before them to rescue Paris. Amuro asked why Queen Shiela is so 
reckless in her action challenging enemy troops with just the Gran 
Garan and Folker agrees saying that the Gran Garan can't possibly 
stand up to the barrage the Aura Battlers will heap against it. Shiela 
says that the inhabitant of Paris begged them to free them and Kawasse 
added that these people helped repair the Gran Garan and Shiela asked 
for their help.

The team deploys and the battle to free the French is on. Heero ask if 
it's really ok to attack with Quatre saying that the city will burn 
and Shiela and Kawasse says that words have spread throughout Paris 
for the inhabitant to get out or go into bomb shelters at the first 
sighting of the Gran Garan. 

After downing the Black Knight, Shou ask what the Black Knight finds 
so amusing about being banished to the upper world because of fighting 
and yet he continues to fight. The Black Knight says that any world is 
fine as long as he gets to beat Shou, Shou will never understand his 
hatred towards him and when next they meet he will crush him. This 
surprises Shou and clues him in on to the Black Knight's true identity.

Todd of course blames Shou for the fighting spreading to the upper 
world saying that if Drake still had all the Dunbine, then Byston Well 
would have been in peace (under Drake's thumb) already. (God, what a 
moron...I still can't believe we can convince this low I.Q. jerk in some 
SRW)  Charm retort that Todd is essentially an idiot since THAT mean 
for Byston Well will be full of war machines. Shou tells Todd that 
Drake would have found another target after conquering Byston Well 
anyway and can't Todd see the meaning behind their banishment back to 
the upper world and the reason the fight started on the upper world 
also? Todd like an idiot says that it only means that he's more 
worried about the fight going to where his mom lives (idiot) and it 
would have been better had it just been in Byston Well (where the 
people dying are of no concern to him)

The Shura arrives to make things even more interesting. Fernando is of 
course in the lead and Hitomi and Shiela tells Folker not to get too 
close to him since Fernando's machine is radiating pure dark Aura 
energy. Folker can't believe it and Fernando screams that he'll kill 
them all which stun Folker.

The Gea Garring is badly damaged and Bishott shout for his subordinate 
to down the Gran Garan. His subordinate says that the Gea Garring is 
not going to make it if they don't pull out since the repairs aren't 
done by the not so cooperative French and it won't survive another 
full on barrage by the Gran Garan and those pesky hard to hit Aura 
Battlers. Bishott note that he's been checkmated and orders a retreat.

Follker slaps Fernando silly knocking him back to his senses and 
Fernando wonder what the heck happened. Of course Misaru appeared with 
Alties and Meigis. Misaru curses that the spell on Fernando wasn't 
complete enough. Folker note that Misaru must have been mind-
controlling Fernando but Misaru retort that it wasn't mind- control 
but he expanded Fernando's inner rage and hatred. Folker asks why 
Alties went along with this and Alties remains silent but Meigis says 
that this is the result of Folker's turning traitor and refusing to 
kill Fernando. (i.e. shame on Alties) Meigis does note that Fernando's 
hatred has subsided for a bit after further battling with Folker and 
Misaru says that's why he reaches in and dig it back out again. Folker 
asks why Misaru did that and Misaru says that it won't make sense to 
someone like Folker, but he has no need of a Shura who won't fight 
although he does lament destroying such talent.

This of course DOES piss Meigis off a little at Misaru's 
underhandedness but Misaru ask if she has any thing bad mouthed to say 
in front of her precious Alties. Tetsuya then say "Why don't I say it 
for her then? You are the lowest piece of #&(#& !@ scum who can't do 
anything by himself except to manipulate people" Misaru of course 
doesn't take quite kindly to that and ask if the team really think 
they can take on three Shura General all at once. Heero says that they 
won't know if they don't give it a try. Sayaka chimed in that if 
Misaru was so sure of his power, then he won't have resorted to 
manipulating Fernando.

Misaru then invites Folker to come with him and he'll give Folker the 
lifestyle that he wanted, to be happy with Fernando and Alties again, 
in fact Misaru says that he also thinks that a lifestyle of conquering 
is a bit strange. Once he's crowned into the Shura King, he'll give 
Folker the life he wants. Meigis is perplexed at Misaru's words but 
Misaru says that fighting isn't all about strength. Kouji ask if 
Folker is really considering it but Meigis says that she's had enough 
of Misaru and advance to put the kibosh on him but Alties tries to 
stop her. Failing that, he blasted her unconscious and tells Misaru 
that they should leave. Misaru tells Folker to consider his words.

The battle is over and Fernando is also gone. Shou ask Shiela how they 
were banished to upper Earth and Shiela tell them about Jacoba Anon's 
anger at Byston Well being abused. Riina asks Folker if he's all right 
and Folker says that he's fine but Tetsuya ask if he isn't planning to 
betray them though Ryouma tells Tetsuya to stop.

Hayato note that Misaru really did play dirty tugging on relationship 
and so on. Kosuke asks if Misaru was the one sending them to other 
worlds and Folker says that Misaru is a very ambitious and dangerous 
man. Riina tells Folker to cheer up and that Fernando and his brother 
will one day return to him and Folker says that he will continue to 
fight the fate of the Shura until a new way of life is found.

Episode 25

Drake and the Weil Wisp have finally been spotted by the Goraon and 
Drake lament on his bad luck since he still can't contact his allies 
yet. Ele note that Drake's forces seems to be in disarray since this 
is the first time they're up on the upper world though it goes the 
same for her troops too. If only they could contact the Gran 
Garan.Suddenly the Gran Garan and Agama arrives to bail out the Goraon. 
Ele thanks them for the save but says that they should get out of here 
quickly since she senses a dark power here. Bright says they can't 
just let Drake be and Drake deploys his troops to fight your team.

Judo asks why Jimmy quickly deploys faster than anyone else and Jimmy 
says that for some reason, his blood is racing though Ru says that 
he's not related to the Aura Battlers.

The battle started and suddenly the Conquester lead by Medusa appears 
to give the team more trouble. The Mechander team sees Medusa's mech 
and note that it seems to be a dragon of some sort. Jimmy note that 
his blood was racing because of that and Amuro tells him to calm down 
and not be overwhelmed. Drake wonders what type of Aura Battler that 
thing is and decides to form an alliance with Medusa to defeat the 
team

Jeryl is downed but suddenly Shou and the others feel an increase in 
her Aura Power as she begins to go Hyper and amazingly increase her 
Aura Battler in size. Jeyrl is drunk with power saying that she can 
crush them like bugs now.

Medusa's mech is also finished by the Mekander Robo but Medusa isn't 
giving up and kamikaze itself onto the Mekander Robo destroying it. 
Medusa begins to gloat but suddenly realize something is wrong with 
her. The Mekander team has safetly bailed out of the wreckage of 
Mekander Robo but standing over them is Medusa and her robot.  
Medusa's commander, Ozmel urged her to finish them off but suddenly 
Medusa begins to change in form and wonders where she is and ask her 
pet Mekaingo as to what's happened. The pet parrot informs her that 
she was turned into a cyborg by the Conquester to use as their tool 
for conquest and she almost killed her son Jimmy. 

Jimmy hears his mother's voice and Medusa wants to go see him but 
Mekaingo informs her that she is turning back into the cyborg and will 
certainly kill Jimmy. Medusa note that her pet is telling her the 
truth and tearfully bid farewell to her son even though she as his 
mother wants to hold him again so badly and self explode her mecha 
with her in it. Ryuusuike and Jiro wonder what happened as Jimmy 
screamed his mother's name.

Allen is defeated and Shou ask why Allen continued to fight even 
though they've returned to the upperworld. Allen says that it's 
because that they're on the upperworld that he's continuing to fight 
since world conquest isn't just a dream anymore but it seems this is 
it for him.

Jeryl is ganged up by Shou and the other Super Robots and she takes 
heavy damages but she says that she's not going down even though Ele 
tells her to get out but she dies alongside her Aura Battler as it 
overload on Aura Power. Folker asked if Aura Power can normally 
enlarge an Aura Battler like that and Ni note that it wasn't just an 
illusion. Shou note that Jeryl died because she couldn't control her 
Aura Power which is a lesson for all of them should they not be able 
to keep their own power under check. Shou note that anger and hate 
amplified Aura power in a very negative way. Charm asks if Shou will 
become like that and Shou says that he's no exception but he'll give 
it his all to keep himself from becoming like that.

Drake's Weil Wisp is battered and Drake sounds the retreat. The 
Combattler team note that the Weil Wisp is strong enough that they 
couldn't sink it in one go but they DID damage it considerably. Hyouma 
promise himself that he'll sink it next time. Ele gives her account of 
how she came to be here and Bright note that with what happened to 
Jeryl, he doesn't like it at all. Jimmy also tells everyone that his 
mother was the one on the robot that beated them and that his mother 
was turned into a cyborg that the Conquester used as a general. His 
proof is that the bracelet he has is proof of royalty in the Kanimede 
royal family and the enemy pilot also has it.

Kosuke then ask if Jimmy's not from Earth and Jimmy come clean that he 
is the prince of the conquered planet Kanimede that the Conquester 
conquered and the planet was turned into a dark planet by the Emperor 
Bedron. His mother helped him escaped to Earth where he swore revenge 
and became a fighter against the Conquester.

 Bright asked if the other Mekander team members knew this and 
Ryuusuke says that they knew and they didn't mean to hide it but they 
didn't want to trouble everyone over it. Kojiro then added that 
Jimmy's their friend, it doesn't matter if he's an Earthling or not. 
Ryouma says that that goes without saying which touches Tekkou Oni or 
Koshou Oni and the other agrees.

The problem is what to do now since Mekander Robo is destroyed and 
Koujiro suggested that they return to Professor Shikishima to see if 
he can repair the Mekander Robo. Ryuusuke note that it's a good idea 
and Bright tells them to do it and rendezvous back once they're 
finished.

Ep26

At BPL, the Creepy Professor says that his plan is near it's 
fruitition and Asami note that only BPL, which is the largest Bio 
Provision Lab have the technology to churn out those UMA and she ask 
why the Creepy Professor is doing this. Creepy Professor says that she 
won't understand but he'll have her see the results of his works. 
Akamatsu's team arrives and C.P. note that those are the Neuronoid and 
he also recognizes Hinoki and says that Hinoki's dad was his friend. 
Hinoki asks if he knows where her parents are and C.P. says that while 
he didn't find them, he found these things. Keita and Hinoki note that 
C.P. is holding the Anims Flower and goes on to spout a lot of biology 
stuff that I don't understand. Anyhow Hinoki says that C.P. is wrong 
in his goal since in order to try to save people, he's killing people 
in the process. C.P. then says to show him the capability of the 
Neuronoid and deploys his children.

The battle begins and Lamia note that those are their hope and Seme 
asks if he will use the last Nebula Seed and Lamia says yes and 
appears which also thrills the C.P. who tells his children to engage 
Betterman. Keita note that with Betterman here, the battle's already 
won.

The Agama team also arrives to help out with Bright noting that this 
is the lair of those UMA. Tatsuya also is quite intrigued at seeing 
Betterman for real. Akamatsu's team fill the team in on Asami's 
capture and the team deploys to help out. C.P. note that that's the 
famous Agama team and Kouji shouted that if he knows them and what 
they're capable of how about he makes it easy on himself and 
surrender?

Folker asked why C.P. is manufacturing all these UMA and C.P. says 
they won't understand and while it isn't complete, he'll have to use 
the King Behemot. King Behemot and a lot more UMA appears and Duo 
notes that some of the species seems a lot bigger than the one they 
tangled with before which probably means stronger than before as Heero 
points out.

However Shot arrives at BPL noting that the Agama team got here first. 
Shot plans to recruit the Creepy Professor and his UMA and C.P. says 
that he'll consider it if Shot helps him defeat the Agama team. Shot 
deploys his Aura Battlers. However help arrive and Hyouma asks what 
that human form glowing with light is. Asami says that it is another 
Betterman, Betterman Rume.  Shot says to kill them all.

Myuzi is deployed and defeated, Rimuru tells Myuzi to open her eyes 
but Myuzi says that she can't die here and retreats. Rimuru wonders if 
Myuzi will never be able to return to when she was kind and gentle.

Shot is also defeated and he says that the unfinished Spriggan is at 
its limit and he retreats. Tetsuya note that even Shot has built 
himself an Aura Ship and Ryouma note that if they combine that with 
Drake's Weil Wisp, they'll be quite hard to battle. Benkei wonders why 
they weren't together. Hayato note that maybe Shot has a different 
agenda.

Van note that they've defeated all the UMA and the battle is over. 
Bright demands to know from C.P. why he created these UMA and Chandei 
calls out to Keita and Keita asks why she is in that machine of C.P. 
and C.P. pretty much says that she has to be in this machine to 
continue living or such and he noted that 70 billions could have been 
saved had he succeed. Chandei wants out but C.P. says that she'll die 
but Chandei says that the one dying is daddy or C.P. and there is a 
blast.

Lamia asks if Seme has found that "thing" and Seme says that she has 
and the two Betterman leave. Chandei also leaves. Akamatsu asks Asami 
if she learned anything about Algernon but Asami says that she only 
learned that C.P. was the one behind the UMA.

Akamatsu then asks to accompany Bright's team since whenever they keep 
going to search for clues on Algernon, they keep having to call on 
Bright's team so it's better if they're together anyway. Beside they 
have to pay back Bright's team for all their help. Bright accepts 
Akamatsu's offer and tells them to board the Agama.

Aboard the Agama, Asami begins to relate her findings so far on 
Algernon and Betterman. The first inkling of Algernon was four years 
ago when Hinoki's parents disappeared on an expedition. C.P. was also 
there but didn't go on their last trip where they disappeared but he 
fetched the police and also found the Anism flower and brought it back 
to B.P.L. while the police killed each other. C.P. researched the 
Anism flower and found some interesting results (which I'm not gonna 
bother trying to understand). The Betterman seems to eat the Seed of 
these flowers to transform and these flowers grow through human death 
which pretty much means that Betterman is indirectly eating people. 
(Betterman expert, please check if that's correct)

Meanwhile, Professor Shikishima briefs the Mekander team that the new 
Mekander Robo is almost finished but from now on, he's adding in a new 
member, Mika, to the team.

Back aboard the Agama, Asami explains that Keita and the girl known as 
Chandei are actually enhanced next-generation clones created by C.P. 
who was already exhibiting symptom of Algernon. Kouji asks if 
Betterman isn't something B.P.L. created but Asami says that records 
of Betterman's existence had existed long before that. Kaede wondered 
how many Betterman existed and Hinoki says that Betterman always 
appeared to rescue her though she doesn't know why.
 
Asami continues saying how C.P. created those UMA and what his plans 
were (Beats me what it is so I'm not gonna bother trying to understand 
the dialogue here, suffice to say it's quite hideous and nasty) but 
all this talking doesn't come close to finding a cure for Algernon 
though Asami says that she's not giving up even if she's the last one 
standing.

Back at the Shura's headquarter, Alteis awakes Meigis and apologizes 
for knocking her out. He says that he cannot let her kill (or at least 
try to kill) Misaru there since Misaru is too powerful and there might 
have been repercussion for Fernando. Meigis apologizes for being very 
hasty back there. Alteis tells Meigis that she must from this point on, 
see things by herself as to where the Shura are headed as a people and 
how they will live. (i.e. get out of here) Meigis rejects that and 
says that she will be by Alteis's side. Alteis says that's impossible 
since he cannot abandon Fernando and Meigis says that they should 
search for Fernando first then. Alteis says that even if they do find 
where Fernando is being kept, they probably won't be able to do 
anything against Misaru. Alteis tells Meigis to find a way to restore 
him to normal by herself while he keeps Misaru occupied and distracted. 
Meigis tells Alteis to not die while she does this.

At the Agama, Asami relates a new finding that there seems to be 
someone who was backing C.P., the Choujin Alliance Company. They know 
this because the Choujin company is demanding that the team hand over 
Kaede to them and Akamatsu asks why they want Kaede and Asami theorize 
that they wanted Kaede's power and ability. Quattro wonders why they 
would help C.P. and Asami says that both their end goal were the same, 
to surpass humanity. This means is that we get to pay a little visit 
to their company.

Episode 27

The team arrives at the Choujin Alliance Company and Asami is pissed 
that it's founder, a Mr. Mamon (I think, but let's just call him the 
Jolly Evil Fat Guy)  whom she's well acquainted with is headhunting 
Kaede.

Jolly Evil Fat Guy waste no time after Asami calls out to him to 
transform into the BluffMan, the ultimate in human evolution which 
prompts the team to deploy. Bluff man then deploys his troops as well 
which are prototypes of the Teiran that Kaede pilots by controlling 
with his power.

The battle begins and in some plot that I still don't get, a weird old 
geezer Yakuzuki shows up talking to Jolly Evil Fat Guy who reminds the 
Geezer that he's the strongest. Lamia and Seme also wonder if they 
should fight but Seme says that they have to wait for SOME reason.  
Akamatsu wonders if Yakuzuki is friends with the Betterman but Asami 
says that Yakuzuki is the strongest living being thanks to his 
mediation and training but Jolly Evil Fat Guy then says that Yakuzuki 
is no match for him.

Lamia makes up his mind to fight and evolve into Forte and Jolly Evil 
Fat Guy says that he's been waiting for Betterman, he'll absorb 
Betterman's cells and turns Bluffman intoBestman. Hyouma says that it 
feels like they've just tuned in to the later half of the movie, which 
is in another language. (You're not the only one) He wonders what they 
should do and Chizuru says that they should beat Jolly Evil Fat Guy to 
which Hyouma goes "Ok, that I get"

Suddenly the Shura led by Alteis also appears and Alteis note that 
this world also contains unending strife and he asks Folker if this 
world by that definition isn't the new Shura World. Alteis continues 
that when one war ends, another begins, how is it different than the 
Shura World?

Folker answers that the will and intent of those fighting are 
different which surprises Alteis. Kouji adds that while those who 
invade may have their own ambitions, he and the others fight to stop 
the ambitions of those people. Alteis says that that is a false 
assumption they give themselves, they can only find themselves and 
what they can do in warfare (i.e. war gives them purpose) Tetsuya says 
that what Alteis says may be true but their battle is never started 
because of their ambition but if there is it's the ambition of wanting 
everyone to live peacefully

Alteis note the team's ideal and then tells Folker to fight him but 
Folker doesn't want that so Alteis says that he'll instigate the 
battle in that case. Folker asks his big bro why they HAVE to fight 
each other? Alteis asks if he doesn't get it and Folker says that it's 
pointless. Alteis says that there's a point even though Folker may not 
get it now, he will one day. Alteis tells Folker that he is not 
fighting for Misaru.

Folker defeats Alteis and Alteis says "This is the way it has to be" 
and Folker wants to know why Alteis wasn't giving it his all, if 
Alteis has been fighting with everything he's got then Folker says 
that he might have been the one to lose. Alteis tells Folker to 
believe in his own strength more often since the battle that lies 
ahead for Folker cannot be won with that half-baked resolve and the 
one to herald in the new age will be Folker.

Misaru appears with Fernando and Misaru demands to know why Alteis 
isn't fighting otherwise his cute little brother Fernando will be the 
one to fight. Quattro and Ru note that that's why Alteis had to fight 
them (Fernando is pretty much hostage) Alteis says to Folker "I have 
something to ask of you...save Fernando" Folker asks how he can do that 
and Alteis says "You'll find a way with your heart" "Folker my 
brother... I wish we could return to living in that time... I'm sorry 
Meigis" Alteis then dies and Folker swears "Alteis my great big 
brother, I swear that I will rise above you and I will change the way 
of the Shura."

Misaru can't believe that Alteis had been defeated but plans to use 
this chance that they're all tired to kill them and commands Fernando 
to attack. Folker asks Fernando if he's ok with that, their big 
brother had just died. Misaru is furious and says that he won't let 
something he can't use lives. Fernando then attacks Misaru savagely 
which startles him and he says quite perplexed "My spell is still on 
you... how could you have attacked me?" Folker then says "It's simple, 
your spell amplifies Fernando's hatred and his hatred for you who 
caused Alteis to die has just rise above his hatred for me" Misaru 
can't believe he made that mistake and retreats with Fernando shouting 
that he'll kill Misaru and follows him. Folker note that if he 
confronts Misaru again, the chance of Fernando appearing should be 
high.

Only Bluffman or the Jolly Evil Fat Guy is left and his stint as the 
living toilet paper roll doesn't last long against the team. Jolly 
Evil Fat Guy can't believe that he's been beaten back this much and 
decides to increase his power which Sakura and Ele senses and tells 
him to stop but it seems he can't increase in power and Yakuzuki tells 
Jolly Evil Fat Guy that they both will perish. However the being 
called Kankel appears from the wreckage of Bluffman and Seme appears 
which makes Lamia wonder if Seme is trying to shield him from Kankel's 
attack. Seme tells them to go, along with hope and he explodes 

 The team wonders what that Bluffman thing was and Sakura says that 
Bluffman still can't use his power too well so he's considered a  
failure  Keita also note that that black thing (Kankel) took out the 
Betterman Seme, what is it? Duo wonders if it's also a Betterman.

Folker tells Bright that he has to leave; he wants to follow Fernando 
which is Alteis's last request. Quattro and Amuro say that they'll all 
go, he can't take on the whole Shura army himself with Judo noting 
that they had this type of conversation before. Queen Shiela says that 
his brother did not only leave him Fernando but other important things 
too which cannot be achieved if he takes off just like that. Folker 
thinks it over and agrees asking for their help and Riina says that of 
course they'll help. Folker then tells Fernando to wait; he'll find a 
way to rescue him.

Later on, Meigis arrives to find the wreckage of Alteis's Shura God 
and Alteis's body herself. She is wrecked by grief and sadness to see 
this saying that she finally found a way to restore Fernando but he's 
not here anymore. Grief turns to anger against Misaru as Meigis swores 
revenge.

The new Mechander Robo and Mechander team is delivered to the Agama 
and Professor Shikishima says that while the Mekander doesn't look any 
different, it's armour and power output has been increased.

Back at the Shura castle, the Shura King tells Misaru that he heard 
about what happened to Alteis and while he trusted Misaru, he wants to 
ask why when there are other worthwhile opponents around that Shura 
must fight each other. He says that the amounts of Shura in Misaru's 
commands are decreasing (against your team) and he now charges Misaru 
with the welfare of the Shura (i.e. stopping them from decreasing) or 
is Misaru trying to pull something?

Misaru begs for mercy saying that he doesn't want to die without his 
ace being used against the team. The Shura King tells him that he will 
lend Misaru his own personal subordinates to use. Misaru note that he 
doesn't have the amount of troops to try and fight the Shura King 
right now, all he can do is try to survive and recalibrate his plans.

Back at the Agama, Folker has been notified that they've found a 
gathering of Shura mech nearby and from the looks of it, there's a 
General/ Commander class which makes the odds of it being Misaru quite 
high, Folker note that they should try a preemptive attack and the 
others agree to follow his lead.

Episode 28
 
At where Misaru is gathering Shura forces to go search for Fernando 
and reined him in, Folker and the Agama team deploys. Misaru is 
startled from the surprise attack. Folker shouted to Misaru that 
they'll settle things here and now, Misaru will taste the fury of his 
brother Alteis and he will burn in hell in revenge for all of the 
Shuras' he manipulated.  The battle begins but suddenly Fernando 
appears shouting that he found Misaru and he'll kill him. Misaru 
rallys his troops to kill all of them which makes Folker wonder what's 
gotten Misaru's so frantic but suddenly another voice says that that's 
enough. It is Meigis. Meigis says that she has seen Alteis's final 
days and Misaru will pay for it.  Meigis tells Folker that the Shura 
King will be coming to this place soon which to Folker explains 
Misaru's frenzy (can't look bad in front of the boss) Meigis then 
blast Fernando telling Folker that this should wake him up, if not 
she's ready to deal with what Fernando's become to the end.

Misaru says that his spell won't be broken so easily and Meigis then 
shoves the cure that she found for Fernando down his throat which 
freed him from Misaru's spell permanently.  Fernando says that it 
seems he's been in a long nightmare that he can't wake up from and 
their brother Alteis is now dead. Meigis tells him not to talk, he's 
suffered a lot of damage but Fernando says that compared to what 
Alteis went through and his hatred for Misaru, this is nothing. 
Fernando tells Folker that they are no longer at odds.

Enraged, Misaru says that he'll rip them to shreds but Folker says 
that the only one dying is Misaru. The battle begins and Misaru soon 
find that taking on three of the best fighter of the Shura PLUS the 
Super Robots of Earth isn't exactly something to scoff at. Misaru 
can't believe that he's been beaten by these trashes. Fernando tells 
him to die for playing with people's emotion like that and Meigis says 
that if Misaru hadn't given that order, Alteis wouldn't have died but 
Misaru says that if only they weren't around, his ambitions would have 
come true and he dies with Folker saying "Misaru, the only place 
you're fit to rule is in the depth of hell"

Fernando apologizes to Folker saying that he finally knows what Folker 
felt having lost their brother Alteis but Folker says it's all right. 
Meigis says that she will continue Alteis's goal and see how things 
will play out. Fernando says that he will fight alongside Folker to 
try and create a new Shura world and so that this sadness no longer 
spread. Folker asks Bright if they can let Fernando and Meigis join 
and Kouji says that that's fine by them too with Riina agreeing that 
siblings should be together.

Bright agrees to it and Fernando says that this is what it feels like 
to have friends and Meigis ask if the team really want them by their 
side. Suddenly a voice rang out "I won't allow that". It is the Shura 
King and he roars "Our people the Shura will not join with those of 
other Kingdom and betray our ideals, I will not allow it" Tetsuya and 
the others are shocked to see the Shura King and Ryouma note that his 
presence is extremely commanding. Judo notes that the Shura King chose 
the worst time to appear with them being quite tired at taking out 
Misaru. Faa note that if they at least have a chance to refuel then 
they might be able to do something against him.

The Shura King says "I can't believe that even you two would betray 
me" and Fernando tells the Shura King that he finally realized that 
the Shura will soon die out if they do not change their ways and he 
could not abide by Misaru's ambition any longer. The Shura King then 
says that the ways might be wrong but he will not accept that fact. 
Meigis says that Lord Alteis had died because of Misaru and the Shura 
King says that it is because Alteis is too soft. Fernando asks if the 
Shura King approves of Misaru's way and the Shura King says that it is 
not wrong, not as a Shura since Misaru's ambition was useful for the 
Shura King himself since they got to raise hell in all these worlds. 
What he will not stand for is for Shura to forget what they stand for, 
to forget fighting. If they have forgotten what being a Shura is, he 
will remind them with his fist until their death from it.

Fernando says that he won't just lie down and take that and attacks 
the Shura King who commends him saying that at least Fernando's 
backbone hasn't gone all soft but with those weak fists of his, how 
can he expect to last against him. Fernando then shouts for Folker and 
the others to get out and Meigis agree saying that they can't fight 
the Shura King head-on right now. Ele says that that goes for the two 
of them too but Shiela says that they have to go, they can't let these 
two's sacrifice be in vain.

Folker shouted that he'll stay and fight and Kouji says that they'll 
stay too. Meigis says that they have to go and tells Folker that 
Folker is Alteis's hope, he can't die here, Alteis and she believe in 
him that he can do it. She then rushes at the Shura King after saying 
that. Fernando shouted "Folker, the rest is up to you" and he also 
joins the fray.

Bright then orders the retreat and says that Folker is to be taken by 
force if necessary.Folker shouted "Wait, you two" before being dragged 
away. The Shura King then asks the two of them if this is really what 
they wanted and Meigis says that she has nothing left to regret and 
will challenge the Shura King right now. Fernando says that he left 
everything to Folker so he'll give it his all. The Shura King then 
commends them for that and says that he will make their last moments 
befitting a Shura. Meigis note "Alteis, I'm coming to be with you" and 
Fernando note "Folker, I believe in you." The two of them tackles the 
Shura King and are then destroyed by his attacks.

At the Agama which has retreated far from the location, Folker swears 
that he will avenge the both of them. Ele apologize to Folker for not 
being able to help and Folker says that it's not their fault; if only 
he was strong enough to defeat the Shura King then they wouldn't have 
died. Riina says that at the very least, in the end, both Meigis and 
Fernando understood Folker's will, the power of his intent. Ele says 
that that is the greatest of power. Tetsuya tells Folker that feeling 
sorry for himself won't bring those two back and Amuro says that 
Folker's being too hard on himself. Folker thinks about it and agrees 
saying that according Fernando, Meigis and Alteis's final wishes, he 
will defeat the Shura King Alkaito. Bright says that they also have 
other enemies to take care of and while it's not to Folker's wishes, 
he wants Folker to tag along for the other battles first. Folker says 
that they will fight together and Riina thanks Folker for that.

The team review who they have left to battle. Jimmy says that the 
Conquester have to be dealt with. Shou says that that goes for Drake, 
Bishott and Shot's Aura Battler army too. Asami also says that the 
Choujin Domei must also be taken care of.  These three are the other 
enemies beside the Shura that must be defeated.

Back at the Shura World, the Shura King lays to rest all the Generals 
that have died such as Alteis, Magnus, Misaru and those that he 
finished off like Meigis and Fernando. He tells them to sleep well and 
that it all came to this because of the decision that he made. If he 
had been stronger then doubt would never have entered their mind and 
they would all still be united but he is the Shura King and he will 
not let this past mistake weight him down or judge him. He will not 
ask their forgiveness but he will carry on until all are crushed and 
his objective fulfill. They will witness from the land beyond the 
Shura King's final battle.

The subordinate tells the Shura King that all remaining Shura are 
gathered and they wish to accompany him into the final battle and the 
Shura King says that they can do as they please.

Back at the Agama, some stuff arrives for Akamatsu who says that it's 
from his dad who's in the U.S. He says that he asked for it half a 
year ago and it's finally finished. Kaede note that Akamatsu's dad is 
a scientist isn't he?  What came in the package are power up for the 
Neuronoids.

At the Conquester's base, Osmel is fuming about Medusa's incompetence 
to destroy the Mekander even at her own life and he rallys his troops 
in order to prepare for their hugest invasion of Earth.

At the Agama, Noin has found out information about their enemies, for 
Drake's troop, it seems that the three faction has not fully 
rendezvous with each other and Marbel note that if they can take 
Bishott's Gea Garring out first then they stand a better chance 
against the rest. The Conquester are preparing for an assault which 
suits Jimmy just fine. Only the Choujin Domei is a problem since she 
can't find any thing on them. Bright ask if Hitomi can do dousing and 
determine their location. Hitomi says that she's been trying but the 
other side is too good at this. Kaede ask if Sakura has a clue and 
Sakura uses her power to find out that the location is at Mody Warp's 
headquarter.Asami says that if that's the case then they have to hurry 
since the Headquarter will soon be decimated. It seems that the Feds 
have mined the base with explosive to take it out a while ago since 
from research, the people infected with Algernon were from Mody Warp 
base. Hyouma wonder why the Jolly Evil Fat Guy is there and Kaede says 
that Bluffman is to be the strongest of human evolution but in order 
to do that, it seems a ceremony is needed, a Dive inspection using the 
Betterman's DNA. Tatsuya note that if that's the case then Jolly Evil 
Fat guy will need Betterman's presence.

Sakura says that if Betterman cease to exist then humanity will also 
not be able to survive because the cause of Algernon will also cease 
to exist. Van wonders what she means though she doesn't understand 
herself.
 
Bright note that all the enemies demand their immediate attention so 
they'll have to pick one and start dealing with it.



Episode 29

The Agama team arrives at the Conquester's base and Bright wonder what 
this gigantic battleship is and learns from Jimmy that it's the 
Conquester's flying fortress. Osmel tells them that they're done for 
since they arrive here and deploys his forces. The team is surrounded 
and notes that the odds are against them. Heero suggest that they take 
Osmel out and the rest will fall which means making a charge against 
the fortress to draw Osmel out. Quattro says that they'll have to do 
their best to take care of everything the Conquester throws at them in 
order to draw Osmel out. The battle begins

The team takes out Conquester mech left and right which begins to 
grates on Osmel's nerve and he says that this isn't the end. Osmel see 
Emperor Hedron's visage in a comm.-link staring at him signifying the 
Emperor's anger and orders all available troops to deploy. Fat load of 
good that did them. Some of the troops suggest that it might be best 
to retreat beyond the solar system until they can develop stronger 
robot troops to fight against the Agama team. Osmel says that he will 
not run from these earthlings and it's all because he's been using 
worthless subordinates that the earthlings managed to come this far. 
He'll take matters into his own hands now. Osmel deploys and Jimmy 
shouted that for all the Earthlings that died from the Conquester and 
for his mother, he will take vengeance. Osmel says that he will send 
Jimmy to hell to meet his mother. Folker asked Osmel why they attacked 
Earth and Osmel says that it's to move their inhabitants to Earth to 
live and Folker then ask why they didn't come and hold talks 
peacefully with the people of Earth first. Osmel says that they have 
no need for humans, they'll turn all humans into loyal cyborg to do 
their menial labour for them.The team is shocked by this and Shiela 
says that they can't let Osmel escape, they must finish him off.

Osmel is defeated and he can't believe that he was defeated by 
Earthlings. Folker asked Osmel as to why it was Earth that was chosen 
to be attacked not other planets and Osmel says that Emperor Hedron of 
the Conquester was born from the Kanimede star system and the place 
that he can live in is only in a polluted planet such as this one that 
arises from human dirtying their planet.

Jimmy note that they've won and he hopes that peace comes at last. 
Bright couldn't believe that Earth being quite polluted was the reason 
the Conquester chose their planet and Princess Ele asked if it really 
IS that bad.Kosuke says that it isn't all bad everywhere but there are 
places that are really bad. The team thinks that once this war is over, 
they as a race will have to change the way they live on this planet so 
as to not birth an Emperor Hedron of their own.



Episode 30

Bishott is in argument with Drake's wife Rusa because Rusa is arguing 
for Bishott to leave the alliance with Drake and take over a country 
and use it's people as hostages (again) so that the Agama team won't 
attack them when the Agama Team arrives which peeves Bishott to no end. 
Rimuru asks if her mother is around and Bishott tells Rimuru that it's 
not too late for her to join them but Rimuru says that she won't 
forgive her mother, as a woman she won't forgive her mother even more 
than her father. Mommy dearest says that even her own daughter won't 
be spared if she decides to take a stand against her. Van shouted in 
rage "Is that something you say to your own daughter?"  Bishott 
decides to cut the chit chat and deploys his forces. The team also 
deploys and Bright note that they have to hurry and finish off the Gea 
Garring before Shot's Spriggan and Drake's Weil Wisp arrives to be 
reinforcement since taking  on all three at once is going to be 
dangerous.

Bishott contact Drake telling him that the Agama team is a LOT 
stronger than he expected and if he doesn't get any reinforcement, 
he'll have to retreat. He note silently to himself that he won't have 
it end here since he won't die needlessly as Drake's shield. Drake 
says that the Weil Wisp is on it's way at full speed and for him to 
hang on but secretly knows about Bishott's treachery along with his 
wife and thinks that Bishott can die as his shield for all he care 
since he won't allow Bishott to retreat.

However Shott's forces arrives and Shott tells Bishott that since the 
Weil Wisp is on it's way, if they can buy some time then they have the 
Agama team trapped and overpowered. Bishott agrees and the battle 
continues. The team can't take down both Shott and Bishott's forces 
fast enough and the Weil Wisp soon arrives. Amuro note that they have 
to finish this quickly (i.e. take out Shott and Bishott first one by 
one) or they're going to get overwhelmed when Drake's force reaches 
them.  The Black Knight deploys bringing a new Aura Battler troop type 
with him saying that they'll finish things here.

Todd is downed but he then goes Hyper shouting that he'll kill the 
team for his mom and make her happy. Shott can't believe that Todd is 
capable of having this much power. However Todd is also downed and he 
wonders why the Aura Barrier isn't working. He tells Shou that he's 
seen a good dream before he dies shouting his mom's name and Shou 
shouted in anger at Todd "What type of good dream is THIS?" Shott 
notes that if one couldn't control the Aura Power, they can't become a 
true Seisenshi and he orders Myuzi to be capable of doing it.

Bishott is downed and he noted that the repairs done in Paris weren't 
enough. Rusa says that she told him to retreat and leave it to the 
others but Bishott says that it's too late for that and the Gea 
Garring explodes taking them to their grave. Drake feels quite weird 
that when Bishott and Rusa died, his own Aura Power seems to have 
decrease.
Shott is also shot down and he can't believe that someone who created 
Aura Battlers like him is going to die here and Shion shouted to Shott 
that if he didn't make the Aura Battlers, none of this would have ever 
happened. Shott asked what is he talking about; Shion's using an Aura 
Battler too isn't he? Kin shouted that if Shott hadn't created them 
then the fighting wouldn't have started but Shott says that even if he 
didn't make them, the fighting would have started in a different form. 
Shott machine explodes and whether he dies or is sent to Shion's 
Byston Well to meet his fate is uncertain.

Shou says that he understands now that Shott was the one who was the 
catalyst for all the war that plagued Byston Well. Myuzi didn't take 
it too well but she also goes down. Myuzi shouted that she thought 
they could have won but Marbel replies that they have a reason not to 
lose too and Myuzi apologize for not being able to do anything for 
Shott before she joins him six feet under.

The Black Knight is downed but he also goes Hyper and Shou shouted 
"What did you get in return for all that hatred." The Black Knight 
retorted that he gain power and the savagery to use it in order to win. 
That didn't do him any good either and he curses "I'm still lacking in 
Aura power?" Shou shouted that it's because the Black Knight used his 
Aura Power for evil. The Black Knight says that he is a Knight, to him 
his power is neither good nor evil but he truly did want to beat Shou 
Zama.

The Black Knight dies and all that's left is Drake's Weil Wisp which 
doesn't last long either. Drake note that this is it and orders the 
crew to bail out of the sinking Weil Wisp saying that if they still 
have Aura Battlers, they can always rebuild their forces and he wants 
to test his own strength once again without having Rusa to trouble him. 
He can do it since that's also Shott's dream. However Ni rushes in and 
attack the Weil Wisp's bridge killing Drake along with the sinking 
Weil Wisp.

Shiela and the others note that the war with Drake is over and in 
truth they wanted to destroy their own Aura machine as well to truly 
make it over but it's still needed to help fight against the Shura so 
they'll keep it for now. Ni says that with Drake defeated, he feels 
that they can take on any other forces and win.

Folker wonders about the Aura Battler's Hyper Form, if he can find a 
way to duplicate it and control it then he might be able to win 
against the Shura King but the Ferarios definitely tells him that 
that's a no-no, what if he can't and lose control of himself. Folker 
note that that's true and that's why he'll stick with fighting 
alongside his friends. Keita tells Folker that they've got this much 
forces gathered, this time they'll win. Bright tells everyone to be on 
alert since they might be attacked by Shura's anytime soon and they 
can't let Fernando and Meigis's death be in vain.


Episode 31

At Mody Warp headquarter Jolly Evil Fat Guy congratulates the team for 
actually rushing in here. Judo note that J.E.F.G. is already infected 
with Algernon and J.E.F.G says that Algernon is a natural mechanism 
that allows humanity to survive through becoming berserk. Kouji asks 
how that contradiction works and J.E.F.G explains that Algernon isn't 
a sickness or disease but a DNA Program to prevent humanity from 
becoming like Kankel.

Lamia arrives and J.E.F.G says that he's been waiting for Betterman 
since without his DNA, he can't evolve to become stronger than Kankel. 
More biology talk (which I don't get) happens and Lamia state to 
become stronger than Kankel, to be a perfect being is the same as 
being like Kankel, to become the source of evil. J.E.F.G. shouts back 
that what does a Betterman who technically eats people from the Seeds 
of Anism understand anything about humanity's fraility and suffering. 
J.E.F.G. transforms into Bluffman and uses his power to activate an 
army of Brossam Neuronoids.

Bluffman says that they have no hopes of winning and tells Betterman 
to transform and he will give him eternal rest. Without the other 
Betterman with him, he has no other choice than to fight by himself. 
Lamia says that he will not lose and turns into Betterman Forte.

Bluffman is defeated and J.E.F.G says before he dies is that all is 
going according to the Akashic Records, Bestman is coming.

Folker note that while they've stopped J.E.F.G, what about Algernon, 
will it cease to exist? Suddenly the team hears Yakusuki's voice 
telling them to stop the root of all evil. Keita is amazed that 
Yakusuki is still alive and Yakusuki says that thanks to some holy 
water, he's been able to quell the thirst for blood in his body for a 
while but that no longer works, Kankel inside him is ready to break 
free ready to destroy everything.

Ru asks what Kankel is and Lamia explains that it is a being that 
wants to destroy everything to nothing. Usually death is part of the 
life cycle and evolution but without anything to succeed the dead, 
evolution comes to a stop. Yakusuki says that the dark side of 
humanity feared growing old and dying and thus strives for immortality </pre><pre id="faqspan-7">
but what they got...was this and he turns into Kankel. 

Keita note that it's that thing that destroyed the other Betterman. 
Jimmy asked why it wants to destroy Betterman and Sakura says that 
Betterman is sort of an antivirus for humanity and with Betterman gone 
then humanity will be destroyed.

Kankel destroyed Betterman Forte in one shot which shocked the team 
but Seme's voice calls out to Lamia saying that it's not over and to 
use Olktos which (I think) is evolved from Forte but wonders if Lamia 
can withstand it.

Lamia asks Seme to witness his birth and evolves into Olktos saying 
that they are the keeper of the balance of life and Yakusuki says to 
stop him or he will destroy everything as Kankel as he can no longer 
stops it. Well, another certain avatar of evolution might have a bone 
to pick with you with a certain hot blooded dose of "Getter Beam"

 Yakusuki says as he is dying that humanity strives to be Bestman 
foregoing living together with others but if they are truly one who 
strives to walk the right path then they must stop him. Lamia says 
that undying cells or immortality are a stigma to human evolution, it 
is time for him to be gone, Kankel and with him destroyed, the program 
will revert back to zero and Olktos fully destroys Kankel.

It is over and the enemy's Neuronoids have also stopped moving. Lamia 
note that humanity wants to overcome death but death is a part of life 
and evolution and Folker asks what Lamia wants to tell them. Lamia 
says that the deaths caused by Algernon are a necessity program for 
life to continue living. Everything stemmed from the experiments that 
happened 7 years ago which aimed to strengthen humanity and turned 
Yakusuki into an immortal (or Bestman)  but also turns him into the 
root of all evil Kankel and everything else comes from it (I.e. the 
creepy professor who creates the monsters and the jolly evil fat guy 
and his Choujin Alliance.) This experiment also trigger a sort of 
natural program which is what is now called Algernon.

Asami then asked if all the survivors of the experiment from 7 years 
ago such as her are the roots and carrier of Algernon? Lamia explains 
that Algernon triggers when humanity as a living species is in danger 
as a defense program. Bright asks if all of the team has also been 
infected with Algernon seeing that they've been together with Asami 
but Lamia says that with the destruction of Kankel, the program has 
stopped functioning so they're safe.

 Sakura invites Lamia to come fight alongside them but Lamia objects 
saying that  he was borned eating the fruits that was from her 
brother's remain and thus gained his memories but he must now 
rest/hibernate for the day that humanity is in danger once again. 
Lamia leaves and Bright note that the Algernon problem is over and 
that the final battle against the Shura now awaits them

Back at the Shura World, the Shura King has received report of the 
Agama's location and orders his troops to mount an attack even though 
all remaining Shura has not arrived yet.


Episode Final

Bright note that all the enemies beside the Shura have been dealt with, 
he wonders how they can attack the Shura now but Folker note that 
there's no need since the Shura have already arrives ready for a final 
battle with them. The team deploys for the final battle.

The Shura King says that he let them go last time after having taken 
Meigis and Fernando's life but that's not the case any more and Folker 
says that he has no intention of running this time. The Shura King 
says that he's observed them all the entire time which surprises the 
team as the Shura King revealed that he's observed this world as to 
whether this world is suitable to become the next Shura World and its 
inhabitant the next Shura people. Kouji shouted that this ain't their 
world but the Shura King says that it's the opposite, since this world 
cannot stop its fighting and those like Shura exist in this world. It 
is a suitable world for them to live in.

Hayato note that the Shura King must be generally referring to them 
and the enemies that the team vanquished. The Shura King says that's 
correct, the team in essence, possessed the power of Shura, killing 
the weak and living amongst the war. That is the essence of Shura and 
thus they are the cause of calling out new Shura to this world.

Queen Sheila then asks if the Shura King will use their power to 
spread and continues the warfare on this world. The Shura King ask if 
that isn't correct, if the team isn't so strong then their opponent 
will not have to want to be just as strong in order to fight them. 
Keita then says that even nature wants to have a balance and Jimmy 
continues that while they may be lacking they will strive for that 
balance.

The Shura King then says "Don't make me laugh" "All that power will 
only call out to others wanting war" "If those half baked weak resolve 
are what will lead to this world's destruction then it's better that 
you all be killed by me."

Folker then replies "Shura King, this world MAY want the battle to 
continue just as you say but that isn't reason enough for us Shura to 
come and do as we please on this world. It may be true that these 
people have power like Shura and that the fighting may never be over 
but this isn't the world for Shura like us who only know of fighting 
to come to. Shura King...it is time you go back to the Shura World"

The Shura King then says that they will not leave, there is no place 
for them to return to and that they will settle in this world. Folker 
then ask everyone to help him for the last time, he will defeat the 
Shura King. Van tells Folker that he has his support and Tatsuya says 
to his family that it's time for Dad to cut loose and raise hell. 
Heero says to leave the lacky to them and focus on the Shura King. 
Folker thanks everyone and tells the Shura King that heaven is waiting 
for him and the Shura King retorted that he will not lose. The battle 
begins as the Agama team rushes the Shura.

Folker attacks the Shura King and says that his ambitions ends here 
but the Shura King tells Folker that he is still too naive and his 
Shura God detach itself from it's base ((i.e. taking off weighted 
cloth just like DBZ)

The real battle begins as the Shura King gives it his all and raises 
the Shura General's machine to use against the team. Shou can't 
believe that they have to take on all the defeated Shura General's 
machine as well as the Shura King at once but Marbel tells him not to 
get weak and Quattro says that those are just fakes without the real 
owner piloting it but the Shura King says that those things are embued 
with his power so they're as strong as the one the team once faced. 
Folker ask if the Shura King is done boasting and shouts "I no longer 
have doubt in my heart, no matter who my enemy is, all I have to do...is 
crush through them" (You can bet in OG Gaiden that Kyosuke will be 
teaching Folker that) Wu Fei and Tetsuya says that's correct, the 
Shura King won't be scaring them with these things. The Shura King 
then says to show him then, their powers.

Folker says that all the rage and sadness and all the hopes that 
others placed in his fist, he will show it all to the Shura King. The 
other super robots take care of the Shura General mech while Folker 
takes on the Shura King.

Folker attacks the Shura King and the Shura King comments that 
Folker's gotten a bit better. Folker shouted "If you hadn't sent the 
Shura to invade other worlds..." The Shura King replies "Maybe, but it 
was my only recourse" to which Folker asks what is he talking about?

Folker deals the Shura King the finishing blow but the Shura King says 
that he will not lose since he is the King of the Shura, he can still 
fight. Folker tells him "That's enough, your fist no longer has any 
strength left" The Shura King says that he regretted that Folker 
didn't use the power of his fist for him instead and that he would not 
die on the Shura World. Jimmy tells the Shura King that he probably 
still have enough strength to return to the Shura World but the Shura 
King says that it is impossible since the Shura World has reached it's 
limit and will begin to collapsed in on itself. This shocks Folker. 
Heero note that that's why the Shura were intent on finding another 
world to move to. The Shura King says that the Shura World technically 
still existed but if another war is waged such as one that will be 
triggered by his death, it will no longer be livable for anyone. To 
him and the other Shura, a world that they must just live in but can 
no longer wage war is a dead world. Hayato asked if that's why the 
Shura had begun invading other dimensions. The Shura King says that 
the decay and collapse began before he even knew about it and he had 
to move the Shura to other dimensions to protect them, in other words, 
it wasn't intentional in the beginning.

Princess Ele and Queen Sheila can't believe if it wasn't unavoidable 
as the Shura King continued that the Shura World which the Shura had 
believed would sustain them eternally had begun to die out and for 
Shura whose life is fighting, to not fight anymore means death so he 
used all of his power to send the Shura to this Earth to turn it into 
a new Shura World. Quattro says quite annoyed "Easy for you to say, 
there's no proof that this world will become a new Shura World." The 
Shura King says that even so, it was his only hope to save his people. 
However once he began moving a large number of Shura across dimensions, 
the dimensional barrier began to run amok. Hitomi asks if that's why 
the team was sent spiraling through various dimensions. The Shura King 
laughed that ironically it gave the team a chance to gather allies 
throughout the various dimensions and became quite strong. Riena asked 
why they never thought of just stopping fighting and the Shura King 
says that for Shura, fighting and winning is everything, there is no 
meaning to life other than that.

The Shura King then says "Folker Albaq, you say that the old ways of 
our worlds were wrong and searched for an answer, is that so? What is 
the difference between our people and these people?" Folker answered 
"I have fought alongside the people of these worlds and learned from 
them the answers to my question, the people of this world and us are 
exactly the same" Keita is surprised at Folker's answer but Folker 
continued " Do you GET that, Shura King? We are like they are, we just 
have to find a way to live without fighting, that's all. We just 
didn't know HOW." "It's not just about fighting; we have to learn how 
to build a new Shura World with our own hands" Van asks "So that is 
your answer, Folker?" The Shura King says that ideals alone will not 
make it a reality but Folker retorted that they can do it. The Shura 
King says again that anyone can SAY they can do it and Folker says 
that he and the remaining Shura will find a way. The Shura King says 
that it is time then that he joined his beloved Generals in the great 
beyond and says "Folker, I leave the Shura World in your hands." 
Tatsuya then says that it may be all good for the Shura King to just 
up and leave this world but what about everyone else from the other 
dimensions, how are THEY going to get home?

The Shura King says that there's no worry, once he dies, the 
dimensions should return to their rightful state without his power 
tugging at it and these people should be sent home. The Shura King 
then note that he has no regrets about his life and to meet Folker and 
his new way in the end, he gives Folker his thanks to which Folker 
says that the same goes likewise. The Shura King then dies with his 
mech exploding and there is a flash.


Belle asks where they are now with Charm and the others noting that 
they're back in Byston Well near the Sea of Ren. Princess Ele wonders 
if the surface world is all right and Eb note that they've defeated 
the Shura King so everything should be fine.   Kin note that still it 
was so abrupt a farewell from the others though Rimuru note that 
ordinarily they'd have never met at all and they should give thanks 
that they did meet. Ni notes that they couldn't have defeated Drake 
and the others without Shou and Marbel's help.

Charm note that all that's left is to get rid of the Aura machines and 
Belle asks why they have to get rid of the Aura Machine and Elle says 
that they're a bad influence on Byston Well and Belle asks why is that 
which annoys Elle a bit. 	Queen Shiela tells Belle that the Aura 
Machines are an unnatural part of Byston Well which should not remain 
now that Drake and the warmongers are gone. Queen Shiela tells Ni that 
they will dump the Aura Machine in the Sea of Ren to which Ni agrees.

Shiela tells Belle that the Aura Machines are an unnatural part of 
Byston Well and must be buried in order for Byston Well to return to 
it's natural state once more.

 In Gaia, Princess Mirana and Serena finds Allen, Van, Meruru and 
Hitomi warping in. Meruru asks why Hitomi had come with them instead 
of going back to the surface world and Hitomi says that maybe she's 
actually an inhabitant of Gaia then but Meruru says that that's 
probably not it, Hitomi probably wish to be with Lord Van right?

Hitomi says that she likes Fanelia and Gaia, she LOVES Van which is 
why she wants to be here to see the future of Fanelia with him.Van 
says that he doesn't mind as long as it's what Hitomi wants but they 
can always meet as long as their hearts are the same.

Hitomi begins to glow as she is warping out. She tells Van to take her 
pendant and she says that she will never forget Van even once she 
becomes old like her grandmother. Allen says "Goodbye, Hitomi" as 
Hitomi returns to her own world with Van saying her name tenderly and 
Meruru crying out her name.
 
Remuru sees the Sabine warping out in front of her with Shion shouting 
where are they this time and she asks Shion where he had been to all 
this time. Silky note that they're back to their world and Shion says 
that he's been to another world.   Remuru asks what the heck he is 
talking about. He just went off wandering didn't he?  Silky says to 
believe them but Shion tells Remuru "Oh I guess I didn't fool you" and 
Shion tells Silky that no one will believe their tales of another 
world. Remuru asks for Shion's help since things has gotten a bit 
hectic since Shion went away and Shion says that he got it and tells 
Silky "Let's go Silky"

Asami note that with this, everyone from the other worlds should 
return to their home.  Yanagi wonders if they all went back home safe 
and sound and Sakura says cryptically that they're fine, she can sense 
it. Kaede compliments Sakura for understanding all this. Shou note 
that they were originally from this world so it's natural that they 
weren't sent back to Byston Well. Mabel asks if Shou would like to 
come back to Texas with her since she'd really like him to meet her 
folks. Shou agrees and Kouji ribs them a bit "Wooh wooh, you two 
lovebirds" with Sayaka telling him to cut it out since they're going 
home right now. Boss comment that Kouji hasn't grown a bit but 
Koujirou says that that's fine since peace is here at last.

Emma wonders what they'll do about the Conquestor with Judo noting 
that they can't just attack the planet Kanimede since it's so far away. 
Ryusuke note that if they can get rid of the pollutions and damage to 
their world; that should be fine with Mika also noting that if they 
can keep their planet clean and green, the Conquestor hopefully 
wouldn't attack again. Noin note that that sounds a lot like a new 
battle for them with Zechs noting that it's one without fighting this 
time to which Duo says that he's up for it. Heero note that it's also 
a war in which they will not need their Gundams and Quatre says that 
they should let their Gundam rest from now on.

Tetsuya note that with the crisis over, their Super Robots will return 
to the museum again to rest and stand vigil over the world should 
another crisis happen and Hyouma hope that it's a long sleep for them. 

Keita note that this is the time that their Kakuseijin can be of more 
use than the Super Robots and Akamatsu says that he's way ahead of 
Keita, having created Ecology No.1 Robot along with Kosuke to help 
refurbish the Earth.

Quattro has to note that they're a rowdy bunch but Amuro says that 
it's good with Camille agreeing. Bright says that the Agama team will 
return to it's previous duty and tells the Mekanda team that he 
already had permission from their Professor to have them work with the 
Agama team for a while. The Agama will depart for space if some of the 
people from the colony want to get off there and Ru jokes that she 
wants to go to Jupiter after all this.

Hiro asks his dad what they will do next and Ryou says that they 
haven't finished things up with the Goblin tribe with Miki also saying 
that the treasure of Atlantis is a bust now. Tatsuya note that they 
will return to finding the Quwashika and for everyone to get ready to 
take off with his family agreeing.

Ryouma says that they'll take their leave now and Koshou Oni wonders 
where should she go next to which Benkei says that she can come back 
to the Saotome Institute with them with the others agreeing that they 
don't mind having her there. (In Tekkou Oni's case, he wonders what he 
should do next and Ryouma ask him to tag along, Tekkou Oni wonders if 
they will resume their rivalry and Hayato says that that's fine but 
may be not right away and Tekkou Oni agrees saying that he's a little 
tired from all the fighting too.)

Bright says that before everyone goes their own ways again, he would 
like to thank all of them. "Thank you and until we meet again, Good 
luck"

Folker finds himself in the barren Shura World again alongside the 
remaining Shura. The Shura troops addressed him as their superior 
since he is the strongest now and asks what they should do from now on. 
Folker says that with the death of the Shura King, they are free to do 
as they please but pleads with them to stop fighting. The troops say 
that they heard his conversation with the Shura King so they will stop 
but the question remains, what do they do from now on? Folker says 
that he will have to go find out the answers and the troops asks if 
they can accompany him to which Folker says that they can do as they 
want. First off for Folker is to visit Fernando, his brother, and 
Meigis. (I.e. their grave) and Folker notes that one is also necessary 
for the Shura King. Folker wonders if he can really save the Shura 
World 

Folker hears Fernando, his brother and Meigis's spirits telling him 
that he can do it, he is their hope and he will be fine as long as he 
remains true to himself. Folker comes to a resolution stating "That's 
right; I must go on in the ways that I want to."


Epilogue....

Afterward what happens to each world is unknown. Has it moved toward 
peace and prosperity or death and destruction?

Even though the destruction of the Shura World has no impact on these 
other worlds, those that fought alongside Folker wishes the Shura 
World and their own worlds to exist peacefully from now on.

And what about Earth, can its populace also find a way to coexist 
without fighting, to exist peacefully? The answer will come in the 
future and we pray that our world do not suffer the same tragedy that 
the Shura World suffered through.
