Zoids! With bodies of metal, and the instincts and fighting spirit of animals,
they are the strongest life forms, standing at the peak of the ecosystem!
When a Zoid and a human form the ultimate bond, a hidden power awakens!
Its name is... Wild Blast!
I used to feel like I could do anything
donna koto mo dekisouna ki ga shiteita
The innocent me and you, we had high hopes for the future
adokenai boku to kimi mirai ni kitai shiteita
The night I learned the difficulty of granting those wishes
kanaeru koto no muzukashisa wo shiru no wa
was the night I grew up just a little
sukoshi dake otona ni natta yoru datta
Though I wanted to turn my eyes away
me wo somuketaku natta kedo
That day, we cried and sobbed
ano hi bokura wa naite nakijakutte
but even so, spoke of dreams we couldn't give up on
soredemo akiramerarenai yume wo katari
Searching for even a tiny bit of hope
hon no wazuka demo kibou wo sagashite
we set off walking blindly again
yamikumo ni mou ichido arukidashita
Right now, our dreams might still be dreams
ima wa mada yume wa yume no mama kamoshirenai
We might not be the slightest bit strong
bokura wa sukoshi mo tsuyokunai kamoshirenai
But these feelings can't be stopped
dakedo kono omoi wa tomerarenai kara
So I'll keep on moving onwards, onwards, with you

Hey! What're you doing!?
I can't let you have that Liger!
What?
Awaken! Pride of the Zoid King
What do you mean, you can't let me have the Liger!?
I mean it's a hundred years too early for you to be calling yourself the legendary lion-type's partner.
What did you say!?
You'd have to at least beat me and the Tiger first.
So if I beat you, you'll be satisfied, right?
Haah?
You could never beat me, not in a million years!
D... Damn it...
I'll do it!
Oh... Oh no!
Wild Blast!
Wild Blast...
Wild...
Blast...
Is he okay?
Looks like the kid and the Liger are both pretty worn out.
Bacon.
Are you serious about not accepting that kid as the Liger's partner?
Liger...
Wild...
Right now is the most dangerous period.
Liger!
I'm starving...
Good grief... I shouted and pinched you, but you wouldn't wake up.
I was worried the Zoid might've sucked out your soul or something.
Liger!
Gramps! What happened to the Liger!? Well!?
Hey, cut that out!
It's hanging around outside the village.
Really...? Haha, alright!
Are you planning on staying with it for good?
'Course I am! He's my partner, isn't he?
What? Do you still think the Liger's dangerous?
Come on! Stubborn old man.
Thanks... for saving me.
Are you okay? How are those wounds Death Metal gave you?
Hardly left a mark.
-Thanks for the help. -Heave ho!
Thank you!
How about we have lunch soon, everyone?
Ooh, that'd be great.
Sorry for making you help us out...
Don't sweat it!
Here, would you like some?
Ah, thank you!
Those look tasty...
Heh, what's this?
They all utterly hated Zoids and Team Supreme before...
Arashi, you're awake?
Yeah!
You did great last night!
Ehehe, I guess.
Yo, partner!
I haven't accepted you.
Oh, give it a rest.
Even if you don't, the Liger accepts me as his partner.
Good timing. You want to pick up where we left off last night?
Oh, stop it.
Huh?
There's no way you could beat Bacon and the Tiger.
What did you say!?
Huh?
Where's Kuroame and the Grachio?
They've headed off.
Headed off? Where to?
Travelling, of course.
And they left you guys behind?
Team Supreme doesn't stay together all the time.
Usually we each go off travelling however we like.
When we meet up, sometimes we'll stick together for a while,
and sometimes we'll split up right away.
But if you're all scattered across the wide world,
don't you worry you might not see each other again?
Well, we always meet again, oddly enough.
How?
That's obvious.
We're connected, as a team.
A team...
With that said, we're heading off too.
Huh?
Hang on a minute!
I haven't settled things with shaggy-head here yet!
Who are you calling shaggy-head?
Bacon and Candy said they're staying, since they've still got things to do.
Perfect! I'll beat you to a pulp this time!
See ya!
Take good care of the Liger!
Okay! Goodbye!
Take care!
Okay!
There they go...
Hey, brat!
Come with me. I'm giving you a crash course.
A crash course?
I told you, didn't I? It's too early for you to call yourself the Liger's partner.
I don't need a crash course!
What?
I'll take you down right now!
Resorting to the Wild Blast straight away like that?
Huh?
The same way you were so tired you slept like a log,
the Wild Blast also places a heavy burden on the Liger's body.
If you keep relying on your Wild Blast like that without thinking about the consequences,
it won't be long before it wrecks the Liger!
I'll do it...
Don't you get it yet, brat!?
I'll do it!
Your crash course!
Oh no! Aaaaaah!
No good, no good at all! Again!
What the hell? It's not like I'm riding a horse.
It's the same thing!
Zoids aren't machines. They're living beings!
You need to understand the Liger's characteristics and sense it like a part of your body!
Become one with the Liger!
Get down lower and move your centre of gravity rapidly!
Match the Liger's movements!
Don't just stop all of a sudden!
Wh-what's your problem?
You are!
Huh?
You couldn't sense the Liger stopping.
You're saying it's my fault!?
Don't try to control it.
I told you, didn't I? Zoids aren't vehicles.
Even those Death Metal guys can control a Zoid.
At this rate, you wouldn't stand a chance if one of Death Metal's Elite Four showed up!
Death Metal's Elite Four?
Yeah.
The four strongest Death Metal members after Emperor Gallagher!
Tough enough to easily crush a city or two all on their own.
The way you are now, you'd be wiped out instantly.
Zoids come in a variety of types, and their abilities and characteristics depend on their forms.
Wild Zoids have strong fighting instincts, and can sometimes be dangerous to humans.
But if you form a bond with one, you won't find a more dependable companion.
Listen. The Liger is a lion-type, the king of the beasts.
It's the proud Zoid King.
It won't let you have your way so easily.
The king of the beasts... the Zoid King...!
Whoa, Liger! Stop, stop, stop!
Are you scared, brat?
That's proof that you haven't become one with the Liger yet!
I'm not a brat! I'm Arashi!
Whaaaa!?
See? The Liger's plenty capable of jumping across on its own.
Hey, Liger! Why'd you leave me behind!?
What the hell... Are you calling me a coward too?
Listen up.
My Tiger specialises in combo attacks, using its speed of over 200 km/h and the power this gives it.
Okay! Come at me from wherever you like!
H-hey, what are you doing!?
Don't let your guard down!
Huh?
You could get attacked from the sky as well!
Ugh, here he comes again, Liger!
Liger! Dodge to the right!
...N-no, left, left! No, I mean-
Don't rely on your eyes! Synchronise with the Liger's wild senses and breaths!
Dammit...
Candy! Could you do that again?
Okay!
Don't rely on your eyes!
Now!
Hey, you're kidding, right?
Candy's leaving too?
It looks like you don't need any more training from me and the Kabtor.
Even so, it's the middle of the night!
Kabtors are nocturnal.
Plus, this one was a wild Zoid who was restored naturally, so he's more lively at night.
Restored naturally?
Zoids lie buried beneath the ground all over this world.
Scientists and those Death Metal guys excavate them, and apply special electric currents to restore them.
But there are also some that get restored naturally by something immensely powerful, like a bolt of lightning.
Death Metal's been capturing those wild Zoids to add to their forces.
This guy had a rough temper too at first, so he was quite the handful.
But now he's your greatest partner, right?
See you.
Ah... Sure!
Thanks for everything!
Hey. It's too early to go to bed yet, right?
Look, brat. From now on, it's grownup time, okay?
Alright!
Brat!
You might not be anywhere near me and the Tiger's level, but let's test your skills!
I'm not a brat, I'm Arashi!
Alright. I'm looking forward to this!
Bring it!
Let's go, Liger!
What's wrong, Liger?
It's Death Metal!
They're back again?
Hurry, get everyone to the village!
Got it!
What are you gonna do, brat?
I'm not a brat, I'm Arashi.
Well, well! Thank you for coming all the way out here to greet me, zamas!
Nohohohoho! I'm Zamas, 1st Platoon Commander of the Death Metal Gil Battalion, zamas!
I'm going to take that little Liger back, zamas.
I'll leave this to you.
Okay!
It's showtime, zamas. Say your prayers!
Here he comes, Liger!
Nohohohoho! Trinity Formation, zamas!
Nohohohohoho! Say your prayers!
Gaaaaaah!
Nohohohoho!
So his attack style makes use of the Raptor's characteristic of working in groups?
When you think I'm pushing in, I pull back, and when you think I'm here, I'm over there...
Ahhh, my beauuutiful attacks look just like I'm dancing!
This is the Raptor Three-in-One Death Trinity, zamas!
Dammit... I can't predict their movements!
Hey, brat! I told you not to rely on your eyes!
Your partner is the Zoid King, Wild Liger!
That's right! The Zoid King, Liger!
Now then, let's bring down this little kid! Say your prayers!
My...
...partner!
Eep! What did you stop for, zamas?
It stopped the Raptors with a single roar...?
That's the perfect characteristic for the noble Zoid King!
How dare you block my beauuutiful attack!
You won't be so lucky next time, zamas!
Behold, the Raptor Final Death Trinity, "Dance of Swords".
The heavyweight-class destructive power of three Zoids as one, zamas! Say your prayers!
Let's go, partner!
Blaze on! Liger!
With my soul!
Unleash your instincts!
Wild Blast!
UNLEASHED
INSTINCTS
Eeek, claws!
Cut them down!
King Of Claw!
Retreat, zamaaaas!
Are you leaving too?
Yeah.
You're strong enough now that you can fight those Death Metal guys if they come back.
Your match with us will have to wait for another time.
Hey-
I've made up my mind!
I'm going to make a team too!
A team?
Yeah!
I'm gonna make a team that's just as awesome as Team Supreme, and travel with them!
I see.
You're right. If you're going to become a Zoid Hunter, you should forge your own journey's path.
I'm gonna search for that thing, too! The Great Ancient Treasure Z!
I'm totally gonna find it before you guys do!
They say Z is such a great treasure it'll let you get hold of everything in the world...
What do you plan to do with it if you find it?
I haven't thought that far ahead!
Pffft, thought so.
See you, Arashi!
I told you, I'm not Arashi! I'm a brat- huh?
Let's meet again! Somewhere in the wide world!
Bacon...
Next time!
I'm totally gonna take you down!
Weren't you going off on a journey?
Yeah...
What are you hesitating for?
Because... If I'm gone, you'll be all alone, right?
You think I'd get lonely?
Hardly. In fact, it'd be refreshing!
What was that!? You're such a charmless old man...
Your life belongs to you.
Just like Ikadzuchi's life belonged to him.
Gramps...
Arashi...
If you think now's the moment, don't miss it.
The first step on your journey.
See you later, Gramps!
Now, let's go, Liger! Out into the wide world!
We're the ones who're gonna find the Great Ancient Treasure Z!
You have things you like doing, right?
suki na koto ga aru daro
If someone praises you, you feel happy, right?
homeraretara ureshii daro
If you keep going so long that you lose interest
akiru kurai made tsudzuketara
There's someone who'll be even happier than you
kimi ijou ni yorokobu hito ga iru
When someone worries about your faults
kimi no dame na toko nayande kurete
but still stays by your side
soredemo soba ni ite kureru hito ni
Be sure to at least tell them "thanks"
chanto "arigatou" gurai itteokunda
Okay? It might be embarrassing, but that courage is precious
ii kai hazukashii darou kedo daiji na yuuki sa
The "from now on" you're going to encounter
kimi ga deau "kore kara" wa ne
will be an unbelievably
shinjirarenai hodo ni
fun, sad,
tanoshikute kanashikute
wonderful journey
suteki na tabi ni naru
So wonderful you'll be able to laugh and say,
"marude otogibanashi" to waraeru hodo
"It's just like a fairytale"
suteki na tabi ni naru
What's the use of only digging up parts? Well?
Our apologies, sir!
Zoids that won't work properly are trash.
Master Drake! I have a report from Zamas!
There's no sign of the Wild Liger in the village any more, so he's preparing to burn the village down!
"Leave that village alone. It's a waste of time, you scum!"
"More importantly, hurry up and follow the Liger's trail, useless scum!"
...Tell him that.
Y-yes, sir!
I'll head out too.
Hey, shaggy-head! What's a Zoid Key?
You're asking that now? Honestly...
Listen up. A Zoid Key is the proof that a Zoid and a human have formed a bond.
And it's an important item for performing a Wild Blast.
I see...! Hmm, so it's such an important thing...
Alright! I'm going to store it away carefully and never use it again!
You can't do that! What about the show!?
