The danger keeps getting worse. The pressure from the bosses is too intense. The DAI-GUARD pilots have more than enough reason to look for new jobs. But a real hero never lays down his robotically enhanced weaponry until the last foe falls. And these three pilots are all the hero the world needs. Can they prove themselves as the final battle for humanity becomes even scarier? Find out in the fifth death-defying volume of DAI GUARD! The internal politicking that brought Nishijima and Saeki into power backfires when their army officers prove incapable of piloting Dai-Guard. Public Relations Division 2 of the 21st Century Defense Security has to be reinstated as Akagi, Ibuki, and Aoyama oust the pretenders and once again become Officer Workers Saving the World. The program's usual nuttiness gives way to more serious issues in episode 21. After studying the book Ibuki's father wrote, Rika insists that Ibuki's memories of her father are falsified. He wasn't a hero trying to protect humanity from the threat posed by the Heterodyne monsters; he was a scientist who saw the Heterodynes as proof of his theories about movement between dimensions. Badly shaken, Ibuki has to wrestle with her demons. Her piloting skills fall off, putting Akagi and Aoyama at risk in a cliffhanger ending. (Rated 12 and older: Violence, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon
