BraveStorm (2017) - full transcript

The year 2050.
The human race is extinct.

The alien race KILLGIS invaded Earth and mobilized
their giant robot, BLACK BARON, to convert Earth's atmosphere into theirs.

96% of the entire human population were wiped out.

Those who managed to survive were left with
nothing but darkness and despair.

Five siblings, the last hope of mankind,

stood up to strike back from beyond their dimension
in order to reclaim Earth from the KILLGIS.

Koji - the second eldest brother
in his power armor suit SILVER

- infiltrated the headquarters of the KILLGIS and
stole the design data of Black Baron.

His desperate escape from the pursuing
CHIGRISES almost came to a dead end...

Even if there is a rival company behind these cases,
it still doesn't explain why.

Anyhow, they are after robot engineers,
even including their family members...



I can't take this anymore.

Don't be silly.

Who else can handle my punches?

Seriously, I'm done...

You're up for tonight, right?

I'll come with you,

but I'm just watching, OK?

Hey, you two...

I heard you're participating in underground fights.
Is it true?

You know I can't wipe your ass if
you get into trouble again!

If you wanna be tough, stick to my plan.

If you wanna be rich,

become a Champion!

No, there's nothing to worry about.



Those are just rumors started by
those underdogs I smashed up'

Bye, sir.

Bye, sir.

Ken Kurenaw.

Tonight you will,

be killed.

Come with me.

Where are you taking me,
what are you selling me?

We'll go if you're going
straight to a club.

Hey skinny, how do you manage
to win a? the time?

Must be on some serious drugs, right?

Your breath stinks.

You!

What now?

Call it a day?

One more,

Let's go out for a drink after this.

I found a pace packed with hot girls.

No wonder Haruka's warning didn't work.

I guess not.

We will take him no matter what.
After the next fight.

Really?

Shit, they're here already.

What's happening?

What do we do?!
He's gonna get killed!

No. Too many people.

Bastard!

Shun!

What the heH are you?!

Shit!

They are all CHIGRISES.

Let me go!

Get in!

You wanna die?

What?

Now!

Hey,

who the heck are you!

Shut up!

Don't worry.

We are on your side.

You were supposed to
get killed back there.

I read your file in the future.

My file in the future?

Supposed to get killed?

We came to pick you up.

Someone's waiting for you.

YOU!

I'm asking you,

what do you mean I was
supposed to get killed?!

"Popular Boxer - Mysterious Death?

That's what would have
happened if we weren't there.

You must have matched
the profile in their system

as someone who may obstruct their plan.

We can't let you die just yet.

You have a mission to accomplish.

Mission?

He's here.

Yo, Ken!

Long time no see'

Brother?!

Where have you been you bastard?!

You...

Cut it out.

Chill out, little brother.

I wanna show you something.

Show me something?

No thanks!

You haven't changed at a?!

You just vanished for years,
having your wife and son!

Do you have any idea how
wormed everyone was?!

'Yo, Ken' after all these years?

You are right. Absolutely right.

I'm sorry.

But listen,

I have a secret mission to save the world
and that's why I couldn't...

Enough!

That headless freak and a monster
tried to kill me and how all this?

What a day!

What?

Look into my eyes.

Hey, what is this place?

This is Tokyo in year 2050.

Stop trying to trick me!

This must be some
kind of VR or something.

No?,

This is my memory.
I am sending it directly to your brain.

Stop talking crazy and cut it out!

I told you, I send wt
directly to your brain.

You feel pain as we?.

What is that giant thing?

We call wt Black Baron.

See the black smoke
the robot discharges?

That smoke contains massive
amounts of toxic substances.

Normal humans would die within
three days of breathing it.

But the same mixture creates
an ideal atmosphere for them.

Them?

Those Black Barons turn
the Earth's atmosphere into KILLGIS air.

We managed to survive using a special respiratory system
created by our grandpa. He was a scientist.

But nearly all humans are wiped out.

Wipe-d out?

What the heck is a KILLGIS?

An invader from a devastated planet.

And we...

came from the future...

to change the future.

He's coming.

30 seconds.

Now!

Well done, Koji.

Now hurry, they'll be here any minute.

Hitomi and I will remain here
and send you all to the past.

You know what to do when you get there.

Kozo, these are the Scan Glasses.

They identify aliens disguised as humans.

Haruka,

your inner potential is 100% released.

Perception, second sight, and
psychic ability, use them well.

Koji.

Your Silver Suit is our
father's masterpiece.

It can amplify any human's
physical abilities up to 500%.

Be careful not to overuse wt

Brother, going back will
only create a new timeline.

Even if we succeed, this
world will not change.

You must come with us!

Yes...

Koichi, why can't you come with us?

Someone has to stay and operate
this machine to send you through.

Kozo,

it's hard for us, too...

but if we don't do it,
then who else can?

We must do it while we still
have the chance our father gave us!

It's okay.

Our only wish is that you will
win this fight and create a new future,

and live a peaceful life there.

It's stabilized.

You must go.

I promise.

We will change the future!

Godspeed,

Er, the application of this
next-generation system enables AI to judge

and act based on long term experience as well as
making ambiguous decisions typical of humans.

Which had been considered impossible...

AI to judge and act based on long term experience as well as
making ambiguous decisions typical of humans.

This will create drastic
changes to a robot's logic,

allowing robots to behave
more similarly to humans.

Kozo... Talk to me!

Holy crap...

July 2013...

Yes!

Koji.

We made it!

Are you OK, Haruka?!

I'm fine, perfectly fine.

Hey, who are you?

Kozo!

He's clean.

You may' be surprised
by our sudden visit,

but we are not strangers.

You are definitely strange...

You are Dr. Kenichiro Kurenai.

Yeah, I guess so...

Hey, what was that?

The light appeared over
there and you came out...

How'd you do that?

Isn't it crazy?

Dr, Kurenaw,

you are about to make a presentation regarding
a motor-controlled micro system

integrated with next-generation AI and biology
as the robot control system

at a conference to be held
on June 28, 2013, right?

It's an innovative thesis, uniting
biological systems and robotic control.

How?

No one should know that!

Of course we know...

Because we came from the year 2050.

2050?

Stop joking around!

We're not joking!

This is the data from the future.

We no longer use it in our time,

but we added a compatible
USB connection for you.

See for yourself.

What?!

This can't be...

You say this is future technology?

This is not human technology.

Not human?

According to records in 2050,

you will be kidnapped
three years from now.

Me? Kidnapped?

By who?

By the ones who created that technology.

The KILLGIS. An alien.

You, along with the best robot
engineers across the world,

will be taken by them,

transformed into slaves,

and forced to manufacture Black Barons.

Slaves?

Stop talking rubbish.

Unfortunately, you will be
divorced in two years.

Your wife Will revert to her maiden name
so the enemy can't find and kill them.

Your son became a scientist,
to follow your dream.

He had children...

Us.

Behave me.

We are your descendants

from 2050.

We are your grandchildren.

Ken,

this is the advanced version
of Black Baron technology...

RED BARON.

You made this?! Seriously?

Where did you get all the money?

Stock market, gambling, etc. You know,

we already know which stocks would
do well or which horses would win.

According to our records in the future,
Black Baron appears in three years.

In three years?

When the KILLGIS came
to invade the Earth,

first, there was only one.

The KILLGIS cannot live in
the Earth's atmosphere.

So he bred the CHIGRISES as his soldiers
to do his bidding on Earth.

They are the aliens who attacked you.

While he can breed the CHIGRISES,
the KILLGIS cannot reproduce monogenically.

They are the same as aphids and bees.

They are still outnumbered.

Black Baron hasn't appeared yet.

It's now or never'

50, Ken! Guess what!

You're going to pilot Red Baron!

Pilot this?

What the?!

It's them.
Kozo, prepare the Silver Suit.

I'll buy some time.
Get Red Baron out of here.

They are drilling straight down to us.

Ken! Take everyone on board
Red Baron and escape.

I only have a driver's license.
I can't handle that humongous robot!

You can use the autopilot for now.

Why should I be the pilot anyway?

Robot my ass!

Robot my ass?!

Don't wanna be a pilot?

Wait, Ken...

Have you forgotten our promise?

Promise?

Never mind...

It's already' configured to your biometrics.
No one else can operate Red Baron.

Dr, Kurenaw, you should have
chosen me, after all.

You don't deserve to pilot this.

You making all the decisions and telling me to fight?!
What the hell?

Can't expect some selfish boxer who fights for money to have
any idea what it takes to fight for the survival of the Earth.

I'm not a smartass like my genius brother
who built that stupid giant robot!

He was determined to keep
his promise to you!

What is this promise you
keep talking about?

Determined?

Bro, I really have no clue.
Why the heck do I have to pilot that?!

I'll keep them busy outside.

Please hurry.

Finally, I found you.

Why are you collecting mechanical
material similar to our designs?

You are building a massive
robot weapon, aren't you?!

How dare you?.

That suit is not of this Earth.

Which planet are you from?

We, the KILLGIS came here first.

There is no place for
any other species.

Leave this planet.

Hey asshole, I'm a human.

You leave my planet.

You must get out of here now!

Ken, you have no choice
but to get on board.

Decide later if you want
to pilot wt or not.

I will open the launch catapult.
Take everyone and go.

What about you?!

Someone has to remain hereto secure
your way out and slow them down!

No! If you are not with us, who will
look after Red Baron?!

That is already taken care of.

Now go! I promise to join you!

Brother...

I'm counting on you.

Flip the blue switch to
activate stealth mode.

They can't track us.

I can't detect the Doctor's
biometric GPS anywhere.

Where are you going?

Hey! Wait!

What are you doing?

Stop!

What now?

This is none of my business.

If you don't pilot Red Baron, who will?

Besides, we have to find your brother!

What a coward.

He's your brother, isn't he?

Just leave me alone.

I'm a professional boxer.
Do you really think you have a chance?

I do.

Damn you!

Loser! Take that thing off
and fight like a man!

That's enough!

St type learns quicker this way.

Brother, you are so cool!

Can you make me a
giant robot someday?

I will be the pilot and
beat up the bad guys!

OK. I will do it.

Yes! Promise me you will!
Really, really promise!

You might have forgotten,

but that was a real memory
from your childhood.

You must be joking... can't be true,
just a childhood promise...

How could he take it so seriously?

When we traveled from the future to the present
and asked the Doctor to develop Red Baron...

OK, I will do it.

But.

On one condition.

Tell us.

I have a little brother called Ken.
He is a hopeless, wayward boy.

But I build robots to keep my promise to
him when he was little

All my work to build a giant robot has been so that,
one day, my brother can pilot it.

So is it okay that my brother
will be the pilot?

I don't get it.

That's impossible.

I must be the pilot to
destroy Black Baron.

I also have a promise
with my elder brother.

Then I can't help you.

No, wait...

Yo, Ken!

Bro?

Bro, are you alive?
Where are you?!

I am activated when there is no key
entry for longer than 12 hours.

I am Kenichiro's AI program, my data incorporating
all of his knowledge, memory, and personality.

AI?

AI? What's that?

Artificial Intelligence. If it's data
truly consists of the contents of Dr. Kurenai's mind,

then it is the same as we are
talking with him in person.

Exactly!

Is this really the same as my brother?

Yes! Now, I can control
Red Baron alone.

But, Ken, when it comes to real combat,
your boxer's reflexes are even faster than a computer.

I, or should I say your brother?
Anyway,

Kenichiro is probably in their hands.

He's alive?

To save him, we have to prepare
for the battle.

We need intensive training until Ken's
abilities are ?I 00% synchronized with Red Baron.

I'll do whatever rt takes
to save my brother!

Then we will head for the Moon.

The Moon?!

There, the gravitational acceleration
is one Sixth of the Earth.

It's an ideal environment for
training with Red Baron.

Wait a second. Please.
What about oxygen, water, or food?

Don't worry. We have a two-week
stock of emergency supplies.

Besides, Red Baron is designed for
various extreme conditions,

including activities in deep space.

There are even separate quarters
inside the body.

I can't leave my brothers
without telling them what we are up to!

Don't worry, strike while the iron is hot!
Haruka, you will help us too.

You are so selfish even as AI.

Hey!

What the...?

Wait! Haruka's gone too?!

This is the worst.

There was an intriguing item among the objects
we took with us when we caught you.

The design of the robot we are
struggling to develop...

yet somehow, it is complete.

Our study on the core technology using materials
from this planet has been a dead end,

but you brought us an
instant solution.

I have no idea how you did it,

but we are truly grateful
for your contribution.

If you're so grateful, then why
don't you release me from this chair?

I wanna take a shower, Let me go home.

Not yet,

you still have one final, important,
and glorious mission to complete,

Searching now---

Red Baron not found

Even in stealth mode,
Red Baron is still massive.

It's impossible to keep hidden.

Where are they?

NO...

Three years earlier
than our records.

Time paradox...

Because of us history
has been altered!

What's going on?

Dunno...

Isn't this much earlier
than what you told me?

How? This can't be.
Black Baron shouldn't exist yet.

But, you see, there it is.

Time paradox.

Glad we could train you. It was short,
but your synchronization level is sufficient.

Let's go back to Earth'
We must stop Black Baron,

It's here early, but at least its
path is the same as in the records!

Black Baron is en route to the Parliament House
to begin the atmosphere modification!

Once it's begun,
it's all over! We have to stop him before that.

It's impossible, with just
the two of us...

We have no choice?

At mast this made it in time.

Cool?

Much tougher in both defense
and attack than the previous mode's.

We are along Harumi-dori Street near Kachidoki Bridge!
There's a huge robot!

Kozo, when I run out of bullets,
start transfer-charging them.

OK!

Hey, Koji! You look miserable!

Red Baron!

Ken!

Are people around here being evacuated?

Don't worry. I checked communications
in the area and found no issues.

Perfect!

Where have you been?!

A little trip to the Meant
To get to know this guy better.

The Moon?!

Drop our beef for now!

I gotta smash that gigantic
hunk of junk first!

You haven't changed, have you?

But never mind,

Show us what you've got, Red Baron!

You, again.

Same to you, asshole.

Shit!!

Ken, a barrier of this magnitude is
beyond the capacity of Black Baron.

It must be transmitted
from the KILLGIS's hideout.

The only way is to destroy the
barrier control in his hideout!

I have identified the location
from Black Baron's GPS and satellite images.

It's an isolated islet in the Bonin Islands
that only appears during low tide.

Give me a break! That's too far,?
How are we gonna go there now?!

There's no choice but to go!

No use! The barrier is too strong!

Koji, let's go.

What?!

Hey! Where have they gone?!

It's one of Haruka's psychic powers.

This must be it.

Kozo, I destroyed it!

Yes!

The barrier is gone!

It's my turn!

Gotcha!

Yo, Ken!

Bro?!

This is fun!

Stop joking, bro! Hey!
What's going on?!

I have no idea.

Probably they captured him,

and turned him into a slave.

A slave?

Ken, he is about to set off
the atmosphere modification device.

Before it's activated, destroy
both me and Black Baron!

Kozo! The KILLGIS is not here!

What?!

We only have a dummy here!

Then where is the KILLGIS?

Earth will become home to the KILLGIS!

This is bad!

He is activating the KILLGIS's
atmosphere modification device!

Dr. Kurenai!

Hey, you've come to rescue me

Why are you here?

The data you brought from
the future... they took wt.

It seems to have helped speed up
Black Baron's development...

Kozo! Dr. Kurenai is here, too!

What?! But!

Oh, I see!

That's not your brother!

What?!

I just scanned him.

He's the KILLGIS!

They found your brother
at the hideout, he's okay!

You bastard!

A shitty show you put on back there!

Go to hell!

Yeah!

I know you can talk.

Why did you choose us?

I visited countless planets.

I wouldn't choose a
peaceful or harmonious planet.

The Earth is different.

This planet is plagued
by wars and devastation.

If you?re doomed for
self-destruction anyway,

then at least my invasion
will bring a new future.

It's up to us

to change the future.

Koichi!

Hitomi!

I have kept my promise.

So...

How is the future
going to change?

It won't be the apocalypse
you've been taking about.

Whatever evil comes, we will
smash it all the same!

We will protect the future of the Earth
with the power we were given.

That's the power of Justice.

Now, no one can follow them.

Don't shoot!

Are you alright?

Who are you?

Shiranui is approaching.

Shiranui?

It's too dangerous here.
Let's get out of here, quickly!

Hey! We have no time to lose!
