Crescent_Moon's Profile

The G2 is racing trhough the desert. It stops, Joe gets out and surveys the scene, a destroyed and deserted village. Joe takes a dive off the top of a cliff into a crater filled with water. He swims down to the bottom until he reaches a hidden entrance.

On the view screen we see a couple of missiles preparing for launch. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(159).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(160).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(162).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(163).jpg[/IMG] The missiles are about to launch. Inside a control room we hear sirens, it's not clear if the rockets are supposed to launch. Judging from their expressions I guess not. The missiles seem to be coming from different countries. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(169).jpg[/IMG] For some reason we see a shot of young family and their baby as the narrator mentions Sosai X. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(173).jpg[/IMG] Dr Raphael is monitoring a viewscreen. Joe is standing behind him. Dr. Raphael mutters something about Galactor. The bird on his shoulder looks on impassively. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(176).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(184).jpg[/IMG] Joe speaks, almost mechanically, without much emotion. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(182).jpg[/IMG] Cut to G-Town, Ken raises Nambu on the intercom. Pima is consulted about something, and Ken mutters something about Joe. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(186).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(187).jpg[/IMG] Back at Dr. Raphael's, a missile is being readied for launch. It's a manned misiile, Joe is on-board, his eye glints as the rocket takes off. Raphael watches the launch, cloack flapping in the wind. It looks lonely there. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(194).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(197).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(198).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(200).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(201).jpg[/IMG] Pima bleats something (it's an annoying voice) as the God Phoenix approaches the Galactor ship that's descended into the atmosphere. Gel Sadra orders the launch of those weird ships and they move towards the God Phoenix. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(204).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(212).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(214).jpg[/IMG] The two missiles are approaching, it looks like they may all meet in the same spot. Ken shoots some missiles at the weird ships and blows them out of the sky. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(251).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(252).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(253).jpg[/IMG] As they approach the Galactor mother ship, they're caught in a massive blast that drives them back. A goon alerts Gel Sadra to the two missiles, and then to the third Joemissile aiming straight for them. Gel Sadra sounds worried. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(240).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(259).jpg[/IMG] The Joe rocket separates into two stages and detonates as it hits the Galactor mother ship. It explodes. Boom! Gel Sadra escapes : ) [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(247).jpg[/IMG] The two other missiles hit each other but don't seem to do what was intended (not sure what that was, surely they also would have hit the Galactor mother ship..) The team awakens on the God Phoenix. They don't know what's happened. They are relieved though. The narrator mentions Dr. Raphael, and we see Joe standing next to his ruined missile, unhurt. Just to change things up, the God Phoenix flies parallel to the sun. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(261).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(269).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(271).jpg[/IMG] Next episode preview: A tunnel, a girl, Joe, shadowy shape, collapsing tunnel, Joe knocked down, the girl again and some rockets

Disclaimer: Gatchaman belongs to Tatsunoko, no infringement is intended. Screencaps: Reboekah has graciously given me access to Gatchaman II screencaps for inclusion in the recaps, thank you! : ) Episode 12: Space, the final frontier.. A galaxy, far far away. We drift through space [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(1).jpg[/IMG] and end up on Earth, somewhere in the mountains. An array of sattelite dishes are receiving transmissions. Bizarre looking flying contraptions enter our field of view and use beam weapons to destroy the installation. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(3).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(6).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(13).jpg[/IMG] On the view-screen in G-Town Nambu shows the enemy ships to the team. Jinpei says something that doesn't meet with the response that he expected. He crosses his arms in a huff and Ryu laughs at him. Nambu continues, ignoring the interruption. Ken's surprised by what he says. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(21).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(23).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(25).jpg[/IMG] We see a closeup of some coastline and a blinking light indicating something important. The team is ordered to investigate and the God Phoenix takes off (stock footage) [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(33).jpg[/IMG] They fly over some towns on their way, eventually flying over the coast. A snow-storm is covering the destroyed installation in a thick white blanket. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(37).jpg[/IMG] Inside, some rats are snacking on the equipment. THe team is a little downcast. Ken receives a transmission on his wrist communicator. It sounds like Nambu. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(41).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(47).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(51).jpg[/IMG] Somewhere further out, no longer in the snow-storm, we see an observatory with a telescope. The team break in and find some Galactor goons to beat into submission. Jinpei seems to be especially enjoying himself, until they find the scientists who have been slaughtered. One scientist is still alive. He looks a little like Nambu. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(56).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(59).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(69).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(103).jpg[/IMG] There's a discussion about what Galactor has been up to, and then the man mentions Dr Raphael which gets Joe's attention (You'd think they'd provide more protection for their scientists). [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(116).jpg[/IMG] A goon wakes up, overhears some of the conversation and makes a call on his wrist communicator. The scientist dies, the team is downcast. Joe leaves the room, Jun tries to stop him but he ignores her and mutters "DR. Raphael". [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(119).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(125).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(128).jpg[/IMG] The weird looking ships from before leave the Earth's atmosphere and dock with a large orbiting space ship. Sosai X and Gel Sadra are discussing something when they get a message from a goon. He mentions Dr. Raphael. This news infuriates Sosai X. His tone becomes ominous as he tells Gel Sadra what to do. He finishes his speech with a creepy laugh. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(133).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(134).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep12/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2012%20(135).jpg[/IMG] Commercial break!

[quote][i]Originally posted by lborgia88[/i] Lucky for her she didn't meet Joe, though -then she'd have died...[/quote] Hahaha, poor Joe : ) It looks like no one gets to be happy in this show! Either they don't get who they want (Ken, Jun, Jinpei, Ryu, any of Ken's romantic interests) or their potential romantic interests die (Joe, sometimes Ken, sometimes Jun)

Zoom in to the ISO Building where the president and Nambu are discussing something. Nambu mentions the ninja team as a lady interrupts on the view screen. The president looks concerned. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(206).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(208).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(209).jpg[/IMG] Cut to the base where the boyfriend is stealing one of the trucks. Guards try to cut him off but he blasts past them. They don't seem to be trying too hard to stop him. One of the guards says something like "The fool, what does he think he's doing, this could be really bad.." [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(210).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(213).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(214).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(216).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(218).jpg[/IMG] Pima mutters something on board the God Phoenix. We get a close up of the truck and its driver and Ken and Jinpei recognise him. There's some discussion, probably along the lines of "We know that guy, he's an idiot but we probably shouldn't kill him". [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(223).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(224).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(225).jpg[/IMG] Ken exits the God Phoenix by jumping off the top using his cloak to make himself more aerodynamic (is it my imagination or does he jump forwards?). [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(233).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(236).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(238).jpg[/IMG] He bursts in through the side door. There's a struggle and the truck careens out of control. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(239).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(243).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(250).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(251).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(252).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(258).jpg[/IMG] We see a structure up ahead, it looks like this might be what idiot boyfriend is aiming for. Ken punches him and he gets winded. They lose control of the tuck which falls off a bridge , throwing both Ken and boyfriend onto the ground. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(276).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(270).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(272).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(291).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(289).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(295).jpg[/IMG] The structure up ahead transforms into a Galactor base, Gel Sadra says "Gatchaman!' and the top opens up to release many murders of crows. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(302).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(306).jpg[/IMG] The God Phoenix is on its way as the crows congregate. A funny looking shark missile is readied and dropped out the bottom of the God phoenix as the crows approach. The missile has some kind of field around it that attracts the crows (magnetic?) and they stick to it in a big clump. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(313).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(315).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(322).jpg[/IMG] Unfortunately, more crows approach and they coalesce into a giant crow shaped beast. The God Phoenix survuves the first onslaught but is covered in crows (it kind of looks like a 3-day growth : ) [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(328).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(331).jpg[/IMG] Joe grabs the controls causing the God Phoenix to bank sharply. Ryu and Jinpei fly acrosss the bridge. Joe's aiming at the Galactor base. He tells Jun to ready the missile. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(342).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(344).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(348).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(357).jpg[/IMG] The crows are stripped from the God Phoenix's hull by the strong winds and the shark missile is released straight into the Galactor base. It explodes. Boom! Gel Sadra escapes (I should make that a macro : ) [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(353).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(367).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(373).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(375).jpg[/IMG] The God Phoenix crash lands but the team survives. Jun is very pleased. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(371).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(376).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(381).jpg[/IMG] On the ground we see the boyfriend. He's unhurt. Ken goes to talk to him. The boyfriend pulls out a gun and is about to shoot himself in the head. Ken backhands him with his healing hands and says something like "idiot, the base is destroyed."

The nurse gives her some flowers. She seems to be in a daze (maybe she's thinking about Ken? ; ) [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(413).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(419).jpg[/IMG] We see the God Phoenix flying off into pastelly clouds as the narrator concludes the story.

Screencaps: Reboekah has graciously given me access to Gatchaman II screencaps for inclusion in the recaps, thank you! : ) Episode 11: The opening scene shows a shipyard with many cranes and a marching band. They're about to launch a new ship. People are having a party as they overlook the scene. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(2).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(3).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(7).jpg[/IMG] A crow approaches. More crows come (perhaps even a murder of them). The crows' eyes gleam menacingly and one takes off and snatches the glass out of the hand of one of the guests. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(9).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(11).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(12).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(20).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(23).jpg[/IMG] Cut to a desert road, a car is broken down on the shoulder. It's Jinpei and Ken. Ken's working on the engine as Jinpei kicks the side of the car in frustration. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(24).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(33).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(29).jpg[/IMG] A car approaches and Jinpei tries to flag it down. It ignores him and he's not happy. Another car pulls up, this one has a beautiful young woman in it. Jinpei blushes (we don't get to see Ken's reaction, but it looks like he's admiring her when he's in the car). The car takes off with Jinpei in the back and Ken riding shotgun. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(45).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(52).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(54).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(58).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(62).jpg[/IMG] For some reason the car stops at the shipyards (maybe they were on their way here?) They get out of the car and find the place deserted, discarded band instruments litter the ground. They explore and the girl comes with them. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(64).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(74).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(77).jpg[/IMG] Jinpei yells out to attract attention. A man comes out of a door and warns them. A mass of crows comes hurtling over the top of narby buildings. They're under attack. Ken hits a bird but it shrugs the damage off. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(82).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(84).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(89).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(93).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(107).jpg[/IMG] Ken shields the woman as they make a mad dash for the safety of a door. Inside they see the party-goers from before. The crows take their frustration out on some nearby gas tanks, blowing them to smithereens. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(109).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(111).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(114).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(117).jpg[/IMG] Jinpei calls out to Ken, the young woman is hurt and unconscious. Cut to the hospital and a well-dressed man who is probably her boyfriend (nope, brother, still an idiot though ; ) is visibly upset. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(121).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(122).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(123).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(126).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(136).jpg[/IMG] He seems to blame Ken and Jinpei for the mess. Meanwhile, Sosai X and Gel Sadra are shooting the breeze. They come to some understanding and we cut to G-Town to ominous sounding music. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(139).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(142).jpg[/IMG] The crows are mechanical and we see what's left of one on a table. Nambu gives some back-story about Queen's bridge which has been partially destroyed. Apparently Gel Sadra has left a message for the team. The team are not impressed. Nambu orders them to go and the God Phoenix takes off (stock footage) [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(143).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(152).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(150).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(144).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(157).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(164).jpg[/IMG] At the hospital a helicopter is broadcasting something as people scream and moan. Inside we see the woman on the operating table and her boyfriend decides to take some action. We see a clock, he thinks he still has some time (enough to change his clothes apparently) and runs off somewhere. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(172).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(176).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(180).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(182).jpg[/IMG] Out in the desert on a farm, he activates some kind of sensor and a massive underground base opens up (ISO I believe, not Galactor). Inside are what look like dump trucks, lots of them. [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(186).jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://reboekah.peregrine-intl.com/Gatch/thumbnails/KNTG%20II/ep11/tnKNTG%20II%20ep%2011%20(187).jpg[/IMG] He knocks out some of the people who are operating the control room and opens up a secret compartment that contains some unpleasant looking machinery.
