Ratings & Reviews
New Dark Clouds (1979)
- S3E1
Weeks after the dust settles from Sosai X's destruction, a tiny fragment of the alien revives and begins to rebuild itself into Sosai Zed. Using the remains of an old shipyard, Zed builds a vast mechanical pyramid fortress and levitates it over the ocean.
Debut! Gatcha Spartan (1979)
- S3E2
Egobossler's first attack, backed up by one of Zed's giant mechs, completely startles out heroes. Ken, Jun, Jinpei and Ryu rush to the scene of the battle (leaving Joe behind to quietly expire). The mech is too powerful, and the New Godphoenix is completely trashed in the first skirmish with Egobossler.
A Tainted Oasis (1979)
- S3E3
Galactor is expanding its power at an astonishing speed. An oasis in a village in the wasteland was occupied for the invasion of the Agrica continent. With the help of the village chief, the ninja squad plans to take back the village and take back the oasis, which is the water source for the villagers' daily lives.
Galactor elected the independent nation of Parlon Island as his forward base. The ninja squad tries to recapture the island, but the citizens are taken hostage and cannot get close to the island. Even Ken, who was able to infiltrate, is thrown into the sea by Galactor's special forces.
The Ninja Corps will escort an International Red Cross cargo ship carrying relief supplies to the port town of Canal, where refugees are located. However, the ship was destroyed by the iron beast mecha, and the refugees were captured by Galactor as slaves in the factory.
Ken asks the same question viewers have probably been asking since the beginning: "Enough battling the little guys--why can't we meet Egobossler head on?" The Team does, but fails miserably. This episode ends in a very disturbing role reversal scene with Ken--now beyond reason--raging at a laughing Egobossler, and Joe finally having to bring all his strength into play to drag Ken back into the Gatchaspartan.
The Kagaku Ninjatai continue their tries at direct confrontation by stealing aboard Zed's tower and facing him directly. This doesn't work either (can we say "outnumbered"?), though they do get in a few good punches.
Prisoners escape from Gertland's prison. Galactor was killing prisoners who approached the databank fortress he was building nearby. Meanwhile, Ken and Joe head to the fortress and meet three escaped prisoners.
Dr. Doll, who is collaborating with Galactor, was developing a material annihilation cannon that would destroy all matter on Earth. In order to stop the father, the ninja team persuades the father and takes his daughter, Karen, who has been protected to the National Defense Forces camp.
