Rearguard

Synopsis

Harlequin goes to attack Narumi, but Éléonore insists on fighting the automaton herself, willing to sacrifice her life for Narumi. As they fight, Harlequin drags Éléonore from the train, but then Bringhella arrives, and he engages Narumi in a martial arts show of strength. However, when Bringhella fires a missile, it reminds Narumi of his early days learning martial arts, and he counters with a missile-like punch of his own, defeating Bringhella. Meanwhile, Masaru on the Jack-O-Lantern puppet, continues his battle with Captain Graziano and uses the martial arts skills of his grandfather which were downloaded into his consciousness to defeat Graziano. The train finally arrives at the launch pad, and Narumi prepares to fly into orbit in the space shuttle, but they are attacked by a hoard of automata. Narumi starts to fight them and realizes that someone is defending his rear, but doesn’t see that it's Masaru. After they defeat all the automata, Narumi turns to see who his ally is, and Masaru blinds him with a camera flashbulb. (Source: Wikipedia)
