CAPTAIN FUTURE
RAW: AST4U Blu-ray rip Re-encode: Peter Translation & Edit: Peter Styling: Kai & Peter
When I was just a little child
I flew about here and there
And lay me down in the grass
To spread the wings of my soul
Wherever I'd like to go, I could go there for sure!
In the time, when I loved you
Learned the wings, which I'd forgotten
Again, in the sky of dreams
How they could fly!
Wherever you look, there's always universe
Wherever you look, there's always future
Wherever you go, there is universe
Wherever you go, there is FUTURE!
- Episode 45 - "The Rescue of Planet Tarast" part 1 of 4 Hero of a Revived Legend
Based on the book "Planets in Peril"
It was highly unusual,
that the Comet took on a case,
that did not come from the Solar System Government.
MARS
Client was Tiko Thrin, a scientist on Mars.
Welcome, Captain Future!
It's been a long time, Tiko.
I'm happy, to see you're well, Simon.
In this form I cannot even get sick.
Let's take a look at the Dimension-jump-system.
Here it is.
The visitor from another dimension
will bring along a relative today.
Three minutes till contact.
Looks like a Matter-transmitter or a Time-changer.
With this device it's impossible to reach another dimension.
That's what you say, but I saw it with my own eyes.
Gerdek of Tarast appeared.
I do not understand the principle myself.
A coincidence connected both dimensions with each other.
What kind of "other dimension" or "other world" is this?
You should ask, gummi puppet.
What is it you call me?
It's not a surpise, that your empty head doesn't understand.
Listen, imagine this world as a bubble.
Since when can you...
The Earth, the Sun, the entire galaxy,
yes, the entire galaxy is inside a bubble.
But there is more than one universe.
In these endless breadths of the higher dimensions
exist countless bubbles.
This device
is capable to connect our universe to another one.
Just look, Simon! There it is!
That is...
You will see soon.
Gerdek, inhabitant of Tarast.
Apparently he has his sister with him.
Welcome, Gerdek.
This is my sister Shiri.
Welcome.
With me are competent scientists, just like you requested.
Captain Future.
Welcome, inhabitants of Tarast.
Is something wrong?
Apparently they find my appearance unusual.
Kafuru!
Yes, he looks like Kafuru!
Who is this Kafuru?
A legendary hero.
According to legend, he will resurrect when Tarast is in danger.
I should come to your universe?
Yes. Please, come with us!
But that is...
What for?
To shield Tarast from destruction.
In the past,
Tarast made great advances thanks to our hero Kafuru.
But in this era of greatness our entrepreneurial spirit disappeared.
And then enemies appeared.
We call them the "Cold Ones".
-The Cold Ones? -Yes.
Two times I traveled to your universe,
to find helpers in battle.
We came here, to ask for your help.
To meet someone like you!
The Cold Ones are dangerous opponents.
Our fight seems almost lost.
Damn, whoever you are,
I will take care of you!
-You are talking big, you tin bucket. -What? You eraser gummi!
Eraser gummi you call me?
Even only by showing yourself,
the people of Tarast will draw new courage.
We can only defeat the Cold Ones, if we stick together.
There are already many, who want to surrender.
If this goes on, Tarast will soon be destroyed.
Please, Captain Future!
Please come as Kafuru to our universe!
That is not possible.
I do not know anything about your world,
your clothes, your customs and neither, how you fight.
We would help you of course.
Even then... To act as national hero...
Nobody will notice it.
It is a hero, who lived millions of years ago.
I know you can do it.
I know, you would save Tarast.
Tell me, what should I do now?
What do you intend to do, Captain?
I would like to go.
Thank you very much!
But I cannot force you.
We would arrive in an unknown universe and would act as heroes.
It would be more careless than adventurous.
And even more so against a dangerous enemy.
Therefore, we should definitely not let the Captain go alone!
Apparently, these people do not know, what I can do.
Sorry, you two.
Up you go!
What are you doing, Grag! Stop it!
Leave it!
This rust tank won't steal my show.
Take a look at this transformation.
Apparently both of you will join.
Do not forget me.
But Professor...
I do not care about you playing around.
I would like to get to know this Tarast in another dimension.
Understood, Professor.
I'm always impressed again by the Professor's insatiable thirst for knowledge.
He is just worried about the Captain.
Captain, I'm going too.
You too? You shouldn't.
Perhaps we won't come back anymore.
That's exactly why I want to come along.
-What? -I am worried.
If there will be many women as beautiful as her there?
When she kissed your hand,
-you seemed very happy to me. -Ouch! You're hurting me, Joan!
The Futuremen had finished working out
their plan for the rescue of Tarast.
They made preparations immediately.
To be able to send the Comet, indispensable for battle,
into the other dimension,
the building of a big</> Dimension-jump-device was started.
Quite frankly, Simon, I regret it.
How do you mean?
Thanks to the device built by me
you will soon set out on an uncertain journey.
Do not worry, Tiko.
No one of us regrets it.
Just keep working on the schedule for the test-start.
They are all so reckless.
The big Dimension-jump-device for the Comet was finished.
Thanks to Tikos instructions, on Tarast
an identical device stood ready.
It's time.
For the first time, people will
travel into another universe!
Security systems checked.
Activate jump-system.
One minute until dimension-jump.
30 seconds.
Five, four, three,
two, one, zero!
Captain Future, Professor Simon, good luck!
The Comet flew to the unknown world of Tarast.
You must be thinking,
you should not have come along.
It's okay.
I am feeling wonderful.
You just can't help it.
For the Futuremen
it seemed to take five or ten hours.
In reality, almost no time passed at the transition to the other world.
We've made it!
Captain!
We are in the other universe.
The dimension-jump was succesful.
This Sun apparently has a much lower luminosity than ours.
This clearly is the planet Tarast.
There is no doubt about that.
Look, there is Shiri!
Captain, thank you for coming. Please hurry!
Hurry? Where is your brother?
My brother is attending the conference of the Supreme Council.
Dordo, please take care of the rest.
Quick, Captain!
This civilization should be in decline, however it looks quite impressive.
No, Grag, take a look at the curtains.
And the door handles are rusted.
The chandelier is in bad condition.
It looks like there is not much time left.
what is that?
The city of Bebemos was left to us by our ancestors.
But if something brakes,
nobody can fix it anymore.
I see.
With this airplane it's no different. This way please.
Not many can fly it anymore.
How then should we defeat the Cold Ones?
This is the hall of the Supreme Council.
My brother is currently holding a speech for the Council,
that Kafuru is sure to appear.
Wait a moment!
So I should appear before the Council?
-Yes. -That was not agreed.
Without knowing the situation here,
I cannot possibly act as Kafuru!
I am sorry, but we have no time left.
Vostol called my brother's idea a reverie.
If we wait, Vostol carries through his ideas
and we have to surrender to the Cold Ones.
Is that Kafuru?
Yes, it's him.
He must have been impressive.
Kafuru is dead!
He already was before the beginning of our calendar.
No matter how great a hero may be,
he will not return from the dead.
Instead of relying on a dead Kafuru,
we should think about, how to survive.
So you want us, to surrender to the Cold Ones, Vostol?
What else can we do?
We continue fighting!
We have fought enough.
They are about to capture Bebemos.
But with Kafuru's appearance the tide will turn.
Kafuru, Kafuru...
Well then, Gerdek,
why don't you bring us your Kafuru.
Here and now.
Come on, Gerdek? Get him here!
Kafuru is here.
It's Kafuru! This face!
Yes, Chairman, the legendary hero has returned!
What makes you so sure, that this man is Kafuru?
Council of Tarast, I am Kafuru!
Tarast lives on!
Together with the memory of our homeland.
But...
I have heard rumours,
that Tarast is threatened with destruction. I was on another planet,
but I've come back with friends.
They will help us in the fight.
Council of Tarast, let me fight by your side!
This is a hoax!
Could be, that they come from afar.
But there is no prove, that he is Kafuru!
It does not look good.
-Chairman! -What is it?
In the square is a crowd!
They have heard of Kafuru's return!
Chairman, please let Kafuru speak to the people!
No!
First he must prove, that he is Kafuru!
My actions will be the proof.
Curtis!
Take me to a place, where I can oversee the square.
It's an honor for me, Kafuru.
Kafuru! Kafuru! Kafuru!
Kafuru! Kafuru!
According to the legend Kafuru returns, when Tarast is threatened by danger!
And that's why I returned!
Citizens of the great world of Tarast,
believe in victory and fight with me!
Captain Future vowed,
for the people, who believed in him,
to do everything in his power, to defeat the Cold Ones.
The Cold Ones are attacking!
Do not withdraw. Keep the position!
Fight the invaders!
They concentrate their attack on Tower 13!
They want to take it!
I won't allow that to happen. We have to go to Tower 13.
Grag, provide Joan and Professor Simon cover and get the Comet.
Otho, follow me!
What a warm welcome!
It is the perfect opportunity, to prove myself as Kafuru.
Come on, you Cold Ones!
That must be a Cold One...
What is that?
That was brilliant.
The Cap... I mean, Kafuru does not let himself be defeated by such monsters.
Quick! We have to protect the Tower!
It is Kafuru. It is the legendary warrior.
It is Kafuru! Kafuru is here!
-Kafuru! -Kafuru!
-Are you coping? -I am sorry, Kafuru.
No, it's okay. Leave the rest to me.
Otho, do you know, how to shoot with that?
Are you kidding me?
Let me do it.
Do not stop. There are more coming!
Damn, it has run out of energy!
What?
Flee into the Tower!
Gerdek!
It's the Comet!
Grag, the metal bucket! Just in time.
Captain, are you happy now, that you took me along?
Joan...
For now, the Futuremen had won.
But there was an unexpected sacrifice.
Grag? He did not come back.
That is strange.
Grag fought with the Space-glider, that was after us.
Grag!
Leave it to me, run to the Comet!
It all looked like Grag would win.
That's why we did not worry and ran straight to the Comet.
Nothing but trouble with this guy.
I will never forgive you, if you die without my permission!
Where did Grag go?
I cannot believe, that he with his powers was defeated.
Thus, Grag dissapeared on Tarast, in another universe.
Will Captain Future as hero Kafuru
be able to save the planet threatened by destruction?
To be continued
Next episode: Rescue-Mission “Grag”
Although he was captured by the enemy, Grag manages
to escape thanks to Eeks telepathy.
For a plan to deceive the opponents
Future boldly asks support of the Council.
But very soon
it becomes clear, that he is not the real Kafuru.
Next time on Captain Future: "Rescue-Mission “Grag” "
If you ever, somehow, one day or another,
Should go to this city
Please visit the little house
You can find it in Poplar Street
When there, by chance
Still lives a girl
With a really gentle face
Then, please, could you tell her
That I'm doing very well
This girl, too, that laughs a lot
And whose cotton clothes dance in the wind
Will be grown-up by now, and have fallen in love
And will have forgotten about me
To Poplar Street,
Forever and always, in my dreams I will return
Although time goes by, right there lies
The homeland of my soul, in days gone by
