01x20 - Riddle: Calling the Riddle of My Secret Birth

[bunniefuu]

Yeah yeah yeah! Wow! Yeah yeah yeah! Wow!

Yeah yeah yeah! Wow! Yeah yeah yeah! Wow!

Within the dark alleys of the metropolis

Biru no tanima no kurayami ni

Spiderman!

Spiderman!

His eyes gleam with a brilliant anger

Kirari to hikaru ikari no me

Spiderman!

Spiderman!

Leaving his tranquil life behind,

Yasuragi sutete

Leaving everything he knows behind,

Subete wo sutete

He'll fly through the skies, chasing after evil

Aku wo otte, sora kakeru

Change Leopardon!

Change Leopardon!

Why do you, oh, why do you...

Kimi wa naze, Kimi wa naze

Why do you risk your life continuing to fight?

Tatakai tsuzukeru no ka, inochi wo kakete

He's devoted himself, he'll stand firm

Hitosuji ni hitosuji ni

He is the invincible man, Spiderman!

Muteki no otoko, Spiderman

Spiderman!

Spiderman!

An earthquake! An earthquake's going to happen!

Ten days later, a major earthquake actually struck.

This Japanese girl possesses a unique power...

...the power to see the future.

Truly a fantastic power.

She knows the fate of the Iron Cross Army.

I wish to know when our world conquest is complete.

I wish to know what the future holds in store for us!

Where is she?

I secretly obtained this photo of her.

Using the photo I tracked her down and discovered she lives a completely normal life.

One Mystery Calls Forth Another The Secret Behind My Birth

Okay. That's enough.

Wait! Keep going!

C'mon, please?

How many photos do you need me to take!? It's just for your resume, you know!

We'll go until it's perfect! Come on...

Make sure to get my good angles.

Listen, buddy, I only have so much to work with...

He's taking the photo to put on his resume!

Is he planning on taking a job exam or something?

Eh!?

Huh!?

Wha-!?

A tutor!?

Yep!

I'm glad you finally decided to join the work force, but...

Are you sure you're qualified?

What? It's just for a first-year middle schooler. See?

"Searching for a tutor."

"Sincerely, a stunning middle-school girl!"

A stunning middle-school girl...

Is that why you wanted those flattering pictures taken!?

What a creep!

I'm afraid you two are quite mistaken.

Takuya!

What?

Wait! Hold on!

Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!

Gotta say you don't look much like your picture...

My cat got a little too playful!

Would this cat by chance happen to be female?

She is!

Pretty impressive.

Do you like mystery novels?

Love 'em!

How about cop shows?

Watch 'em all the time.

Do you guess the culprits ahead of time?

Of course I do!

Wow!

You're perfect for the job!

One last question...

Do you hate studying?

Can't stand it...

I mean can't stand not knowing stuff!

I love it! Yep!

Tell me the truth.

Well... can't say I love it...

You pass!

Huh?

Hey, wait!

I passed for saying I don't like it?

How does that work?

Hello, sorry to bother you.

Yoko said she would handle selecting a tutor herself.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

We were hoping you could focus mostly on math with her.

Will do...

The truth is I didn't pick you for your teaching ability, but actually your detective skills.

Detective skills?

There's something I want you to investigate.

What is it?

I really want to know...

...whether I'm actually their child or not.

What do you mean?

Okay, you tell me...

Do I look anything like my parents at all?

I don't think that's enough to say you aren't their kid though...

Of course not! But there's something else!

I can't find any pictures of me as a baby!

Well... That is kind of weird...

I think my real parents gave me up to them when I was a baby.

And when I grow up into a beautiful lady...

My real mom and dad will finally reveal themselves to me!

Yamashiro Takuya's here!?

But why?

Don't move!

Takuya!

Yoko!

Somebody help!

Wait!

Floor it!

Wait! Stop! Hey!

Stop! Please!

Brake! Stop! Hey!

Wait!

A fitting image for a loon...

Let's go.

Spider Machine, GP- !

Spider Strings!

Come with me.

Spiderman!

I was so scared...

You saving me, Spiderman... it's like a dream!

I'm like the heroine in a novel!

Tell me the truth!

You're acting funny, Yoko.

Don't you think so, Mom?

He's right!

You're just upset because of what happened just now.

No! I was their target!

They came specifically for me!

Could you leave Yoko with me for now?

No! There's no need to do that!

Why not?

Yoko really is our daughter.

She's the daughter of an average white-collar worker. There's no reason for them to go after her.

I don't want a dad like you!

Yoko...

You didn't come to save me!

There's no way... you could ever be my dad!

I'm old enough!

I deserve to know the truth!

Spiderman understood quite well Yoko's desire to see her true parents.

Takuya wished there was some way he could see his m*rder*d father.

We used to be so happy...

We used to be able to live in peace...

He also understood how they loved her, and would continue to insist that they were her real parents.

Excuse me... Would Yamashiro Takuya happen to still be here?

I've already sent him away.

Guess he already screwed up.

Then where has he been all this time?

Must be too embarrassed to even come home.

Spiderman continued to keep watch over Yoko.

If you want to know more about your real mom and dad...

I can take you to them.

A chance like this only comes once.

If you miss it, you may never learn the real truth.

Spider Machine, GP- !

We've been waiting. Come in.

Please, come in.

You finally made it!

-Take me home! -Not happening.

Not until you use your psychic power to reveal to us the future of the Iron Cross Army.

You want me to!?

I don't know what you're talking about!

You possess the psychic power to see the future.

They call it precognition.

What? The power to see the future?

But I don't... There has to be some mistake!

There is no mistake.

We know you foresaw that great earthquake.

An earthquake! An earthquake's going to happen!

We know everything about you.

But I don't know anything about that!

Now be a good girl and show me the future of the Iron Cross Army.

I can't!

I can't do that!

Then how about I pluck those pretty eyes right out of your skull!?

What!?

Fly! Fly until you reach the edge of the sky!

What terrifying power... I must have flown at least meters.

What!?

Yoko is-!?

I don't believe you! She's... She's just a normal girl!

But is she actually your child?

Yes! She is our child, I swear!

You still insist on that?

As we speak, she's being put in mortal danger.

Now concentrate and look deep into this mirror.

Well!? Do you see anything?

Anything!?

Stop!

Does this girl really have psychic power?

Amazoness!

Perhaps you've made a mistake?

Impossible!

Go over Yoko's life one more time, right from the moment she was born!

If the Iron Cross Army learns of their mistake...

Yoko's life will be in danger!

Oh, honey!

And not just her.

The girl they mistook Yoko for will also be at risk!

What is it?

Please, forgive us.

Yoko... isn't really our child.

There used to be a girl that looked exactly like Yoko. Her name was Mitsuko.

Mitsuko could use psychic powers...

We lost her a month ago in an accident.

I kept this mysterious girl hidden from the rest of the world from the very moment she was born.

I'm afraid you made a mistake.

It can't be!

You're wrong! You think I can believe that!?

Then, please, take a look at this picture.

This is Mitsuko.

How can this be!?

Mr. Priest! Then who are my real mom and dad!?

I don't know.

You were found crying in the church alter, swaddled in your baby clothes.

Then you mean I'll never see my real mom or dad, huh...

I was too late!

I was a month too late!

This has all been a waste of time!

You disgust me, Yoko...

I'm disgusted at how I mistook you for having psychic powers!

I'll k*ll you.

I'll k*ll you all!

Get her!

Hold it!

So you're still alive...

People are bonded by blood!

It's proof of their love!

I too bleed for the sake of love! I am Spiderman!

This graveyard will be stained in your blood!

Yoko!

Dad!

Don't k*ll her! Take me instead!

What!?

I'm Yoko's father. I don't care what anyone says, she's mine!

Then let me grant your wish. You'll die first.

Yoko!

Dad! Dad!

Yoko!

Honey!

-Dad! Dad! -Stay with me!

Spider Net!

Spider Strings!

Get out of here.

Primitive Man!

I am a Machine BEM of the Iron Cross Army, Primitive Man!

Marveller!

Marveller! Fire the cannons!

Marveller! Change Leopardon!

Leopardon Strings!

Leopardon! Sword Vigor!

Dad!

Dad!

Mom!

-Yoko! -Yoko!

You called me "Dad".

Dad! Mom!

I suddenly realized it.

I knew who my real mom and dad were all along.

Yoko!

Yoko...

Dad.

Spiderman too could feel his heart quietly crying out for his dad.

He must continue to protect the hearts of those who love

from the evil clutches of the Iron Cross Army.

Takuya cannot afford to rest.

Yami fukaku hibiku

The sound of hell's footsteps

Jigoku no ashi oto

Echo in the darkness

Boyou no shita nemuru chichi yo

Dad sleeps below his gravestone

Mune ni himeta hijou no sadame

I lock away my cruel fate within my chest

Saraba tomo yo, chikai no tomo yo

Farewell, my friends, my dear friends

Ore wa tada hitori, ore wa tada hitori

I am all alone, oh, I am all alone

Kouya wo hashiru

Running across the wasteland
