STORY SYNOPSIS (second half) (by MNeidengard)

Back to the story! Kouji's just gotten out of a _very_ fatiguing day in
school. Your character points out that finals are coming up and if he doesn't
study his ass off he's gonna fail. Kouji points out that he had no time for
studying with all the fighting he had to do against the Kyouryuu Empire, and
asks to borrow your notes (no such luck). Sayaka then shows up, figuring that
Kouji probably forgot about a conversation they had yesterday: namely that a
new super robot that the DC designed was coming to the lab. Kouji's gonna go
home and get the Pailder, so he tells her to go on ahead. It'll be Kouji's
first time in Mazinger since fighting the Kyouryuu, so he bids you farewell.
Just then, the evacuation sirens sound. Your SO then shows up to tell you
that Mecha-Beasts have showed up! Kouji's gonna get the Pailder and use it to
chase away the beasts while everyone evacuates, but you worry that the cockpit
fighter of Mazinger can't do much by itself.

Kouji points out there's no time to go get Mazinger Z, and plans to hold
the Mecha-Beasts off until the army arrives. Your characters worry a bit,
and then discover that a plane crashed nearby. Unfortunately, your SO
seemingly gets caught in the crash, and while you worry you notice something
in the plane...something that's calling you. It's a robot you've never seen
before. You can either jump into the robot or look for your SO.

If you jump in, the robot teaches you to drive it directly to your brain.
You get a combat round before Kouji shows up. If you don't, Kouji gets
a combat round and then angsts about how the plane fell on the school -
and then another round to realize he's being unmanly waiting for the army
to come back him up. Either way, you become the pilot of the Grungast
type II.

Skipping the basic explanation is worth a Skill point.

Ashura is apparently trying to kill Kouji, since that'd mean the end of
Mazinger Z. He's still alive and squares off against Ashura. Ashura tells
him that this operation is based on Mazinger's weak point: trying to kill
not Mazinger, but its pilot. Ashura will only try to attack Kouji during
the battle, so if you're in the battle too you can attack without fear.
However, once you defeat Ashura, you learn that there's another group
attacking the Photon Power laboratory, where Mazinger Z will be useless
without Kouji to pilot it.
