SYNOPSIS:
The film is set in the near future, where Dr. Nobuhiko Komyoji is the head of the robot engineering project “ARK Project”, which was created to make robots that peacefully solve problems beyond human control. But when Dr. Komyoji finds out that ARK Project’s goal is different than he thought, he betrays the organization. They try to kill him using his own creation, Android Mary, but he escapes. ARK Project, thinking that Dr. Komyoji is dead, spreads the story that his death is due to an accident during an experiment. A year later, the project is headed by his rival, Kanzaki, and the Minister of Defense, Tsubakiya, who have begun to use the project for their own personal benefits rather than its original objective. ARK Project eventually finds out that Dr. Komyoji may still be alive, so they attack his children, trying to force his surrender. In their defense, a robot with Dr. Komyoji’s Conscience Circuit appears – Android Jiro / Kikaider – who reveals that his main mission is to protect the son and daughter of Dr. Komyoji, as well as the rest of humanity.
