Outlaw Star quotes

Gene

(to himself) I've got a bad feeling about this...but a job's a job.

Gene

Okay, so your real name is Hilda. Why are those pirates after you?

Hilda

I'm their enemy. We're after the same treasure.

Jim

Treasure? This is bad news, Gene! Let's get out of here!

Gene

You don't actually think that they'll let us go now, do you?

Jim

Women will be the death of you someday.

Gene

Right, I can't forget to include that in my plan for an ideal life.

A boy has the right to dream. There are endless possibilities stretched out before him. What awaits him down the path, he will then have to choose. The boy doesn't always know. At some point, the boy then becomes an adult and learns what he was able to become. Joy and sadness forever will accompany this. He is confronted with a choice - when this happens, does he bid his past farewell in his heart? Once a boy becomes an adult, he can no longer go back to being a boy. The boy is now a man. Only one thing can be said: A boy has the right to dream, for those endless possibilities are stretched out before him. We must remember, all men were once boys.

There are 3 powers in space. The Space Forces, the pirates, and outlaws. The difference is what motivates them. What motivates an outlaw varies from person to person. Good or bad, doesn't figure in solidarity in their duty.

Jim Hawkins

Jim: So that's what makes them outlaws.

With the development of the munchousen drive, which made faster than light space travel prossible, humanity entered into a new era of space odysseys. They set out into the universe, into this infinite sea. Explorers, soldiers, colonists. All sorts of travelers with all sorts of names crossed the sea of stars and spread out across all sorts of worlds. But when law and order were created, those who disturbed it appeared. And when wealth and interest were made those who would plunder them appeared. Just as in the last great age of sailing, pirates were reborn in space. But in this new age of odysseys a new breed of sailor appeared who worked outside the law, but sided with neither space pirate nor space forces: Outlaws. This was the name given to those who traveled to space with only his freedom as his guide.

5 planetary grappler ships have launched from Blue Heaven and are closing in.

Hilda

Gene, hey Gene!

Gene

Huh, what is it?

Hilda

You ever fight in a spaceship before?

Gene

No, even if I did, I don't want to now.

Hilda

I thought you had experience as a pilot.

Gene

I do, I might puke all over the console.

Warning, that may cause a short circuit.

Jim

If you don't have a problem with it, I'll help.

Hilda

Can you operate a laser cannon?

Jim

Sure, I know how to use one.

Hilda

It's to your right. If they close in, open fire.

Jim

Okay.

Hilda

Melfina, sit in the auxiliary control chair. You're able to do it.
