Spiral Zone is a 1987 animated sci-fi series that blends action, dystopian storytelling, and futuristic tech. Set in the year 2007, the show follows an elite team known as the Zone Riders as they battle the evil Overlord and his Black Widows, who have enslaved much of the world using a mind-controlling bio-weapon called the Spiral Zone. With its dark tone, advanced animation for the time, and unique character designs, Spiral Zone stands out as one of the most underrated and mature 80s cartoons — a must-watch for fans of retro action and sci-fi animation.

00:00Surrender or pay the consequences.
00:30Courage, peace and freedom, we love stone.
00:37We will fight on our honor, but it's right.
00:42We'll defend, fight the zone, zone private.
00:47Earth's most powerful soldiers, or Earth's last chance against the spiral zone.
00:55Zone Riders, looks like we're coming to a commercial.
01:06Let's fight the zone.
01:25Let's fight the zone.
01:55Blast those zone riders, let's go!
02:13Well, it looks like that doesn't, for now.
02:16Another day, another zone.
02:30And we lost another plane, too.
02:32I wish we could get ahead.
02:34It is difficult.
02:35There are millions of zoners and only seven of us.
02:39Where is the commander?
02:40Commander?
02:40Sir, you...
02:50We all need rest.
03:05Overlord's zones are everywhere, Kat.
03:08Separating countries, states, families.
03:12We are doing the best we can.
03:15We have to do more.
03:16Where are you going?
03:18Where are you going?
03:20I, uh...
03:21I have some thinking to do.
03:29We lost the Seattle zone, Overlord.
03:32It's only one zone.
03:35We will replace it.
03:36And more.
03:37We are going to win.
03:42We will create zones faster than the zone riders can destroy them.
03:46It's only a matter of time.
03:48Well, what do you think?
03:58It's pretty risky, Dirk.
04:00Risk is what war is all about, General.
04:02Dr. Lawrence?
04:03I can make a biochip that will do precisely as you suggest, Commander.
04:08Good.
04:09Then it's settled.
04:11I do not understand why you cannot tell us what this mission is, Commander.
04:16I'm sorry, Tank.
04:17Top secret.
04:17All I can tell you is that I'll be flying over New York.
04:21Commander?
04:21I know what I'm doing, Kat.
04:27Commander Courage cleared for takeoff.
04:36Courage to McFarlane.
04:37Everything's going according to plan, General.
04:39Roger, Commander.

06:33i can't let you do that and if we decided to do it anyway general i can order you to
06:39stay here you would not be doing this without a very good reason general and we deserve to

06:57maybe he's not there let's take a look don't be stupid razor back courage is excellent with a needler
07:05i guess we better keep looking
07:11this is the new m7 biomolecular computer interface very interesting but what has this got to do with
07:22the commander commander courage has entered the new york zone in an imitation suit in order to be zoned
07:28and captured by overlord what what a chip like this is implanted just behind his ear at the proper time it will order him in overlord's voice to destroy the new york generator
07:45with that generator out the u.n forces can move into the area we've been tracking him since he intentionally crash landed his jet
07:54sooner or later overlord will find him and take him to his headquarters and when he does we'll trigger the biochip
08:02yeah the man is one brave cover right enough

09:17good dog
09:18any indication of the commander
09:27none
09:28none
09:29none
09:43lita we'll cover more territory now
09:49what has been keeping you overlord is waiting for him
09:51I've been keeping you. Overlord is waiting for him.
09:55We was just been having a little fun, me and him.
09:59Take him to headquarters. Immediately.
10:03Oh, too bad. We was having such a good time.
10:15I cannot fire. I might get back.
10:21Stay tuned. The Zone Riders will be back.
10:29And now we return with more Spiral Zone action.
10:35Katarina to Zone Riders. I have found him.
10:41Roger, we're on our way.
10:45So, I win at last, Ed Commander.
10:57I never really expected it to end this way.
11:01He makes a great dog. You should see him fetch.
11:05Silence! This man will be treated with respect.
11:09He was a brave enemy.
11:11But his defeat was sure to come.
11:13I want everyone on full alert. The Zone Riders will come looking for him.
11:23I think we hit him hard and fast.
11:33I disagree. They are too well guarded.
11:37A direct attack would be defeated.
11:39Stop. The Commander might be hurt.
11:43So, what do we do?
11:45So, what do we do?
11:47It's over, mate.
11:49We take him down under.
11:51Do your Zone Riders know where you are, Commander?
11:57No.
11:58Foolish of you.
12:00Tell me.
12:02What is it that moves a man like you?
12:05Why do you keep fighting against fate?
12:08As long as one Zone Rider is left, it is not over.
12:13Wrong, Commander Courage.
12:15It is over now.
12:18Give me your suit.
12:24It looks like this abandoned tunnel will take us directly under Overlord's headquarters.
12:29We will draw the guards' attention, but you find a way in and a way out.
12:34Take this to the lab. I want it analyzed completely.
12:47I am going to win this war, Courage. Do you believe that?
12:51No.
12:56What have you determined?
12:58Composition appears to be various synthetics. There is no initial indication of special properties.
13:03Keep testing. We know there at least has to be Neutron 90 in it.
13:15We should take in a taxi, mates.
13:17I hope Hero and Ben are all right.
13:23Ready, Ben?
13:25Ready as I'll ever be. Let's go.
13:33What have you found?
13:35Nothing, Overlord.
13:36Cook to Overlord.
13:38What is it?
13:39It appears we have company. Two of the Zone Riders.
13:50I knew they would come sooner or later.
13:53No matter. They can't get past our defenses. Take care of them.
13:58According to this, we almost dead.
14:00Sounds like Ben and Hero got there before us.
14:03We got them pretty mad, Hero.
14:05Good. We must keep them too busy to notice the others.
14:09Okay, let's move and keep it quiet.
14:20All right. Cat and I will take the stairs. Tank and Ned will go up the outside.
14:25Aye. Remind me to do you a favor sometime, mate.
14:28We could close the generator right now, but then they would know we are here.
14:36That'd be all she wrote for the command.
14:53Last one up's a red-eye wallaby, Tank.
14:55Maybe we should have taken the elevator.
15:11There's too many of us.
15:13It is not necessary that we defeat them, only that we keep them occupied.
15:18Hey, guys.
15:22I'm new in town. Where's the excitement?
15:25This is no Tendak suit.
15:41It's some kind of trick.
15:43Courage will pay for this.
15:46Hurry. The commander must be in here.
15:48I think they know we're here.
15:51So it would appear.
15:53Dark!
15:55Oh, Dark.
15:57Oh, Dark.
16:08Oh, Dark.
16:11Oh, Dark.
16:12Oh, Dark.
16:29Quickly. We must get out of here.
16:30Get out of here.
16:36No!
16:49It's Dark. He's back online and in Overlord's headquarters.
16:52Quick. Trigger the command.
16:53Destroy the zone generator. Let no one stand in your way.
17:09Must destroy the generator.
17:10It is a trick. Those two are only the workers.
17:11It is a trick. Those two are only the workers.
17:12It is a trick. Those two are only the workers.
17:14He caught on!
17:35It is a trick. Those two are only the Berkans.
17:41He caught on.
17:42Come then, we must hurry.
17:52No!
18:00Berk!
18:01Hello. Watch this.
18:05His aim is improving.
18:11Yeah, but our odds aren't.
18:14Quickly, back the other way.
18:16I don't think that was such a good idea.
18:26Nice shot, hero. You blocked him out.
18:29Unfortunately, Franklin-san, we are also blocked in.
18:35Max. Derkis.
18:36Greetings, mates. As is for a dramatic entrance.
18:50Thank goodness. He is all right.
18:52He is all right.
18:56He'll be a lot better after we blow up that generator.
19:03Now how do we get out?
19:11The billboard. Use your bazooka.
19:13Gotcha.
19:14Gotcha.
19:17Now.
19:34Need it.
19:35We must hurry.
19:39We must hurry.
19:45We must hurry.
19:52We must hurry.
19:53Oh, my God.
20:23It was a good plan, Dirk.
20:51It almost worked.
20:53You people are brave enough to face up to their greatest fears.
20:57But I still do not understand why you did not tell us.
21:02I knew all of you would try to talk me out of it.
21:04And I was afraid I might let you do it.
21:08So the war will go on.
21:11Yes, until we finally win.
21:14And we will win.
21:16We'll be right back with more Spiral Zone action.
21:30And now we return with more Spiral Zone adventure.
21:36We'll be right back with more Spiral Zone.
22:06We'll be right back with more Spiral Zone.
22:20Spiral Zone.
22:22Spiral Zone.
