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
00:07Earth's most powerful soldiers
00:10Earth's last chance
00:13To fight the spirals of love
00:16Darkness has fallen
00:20On the victims of the zone
00:26Our world calls for courage
00:32Peace and freedom
00:35We must own
00:37We will fight
00:40On our honor
00:42But it's right
00:43We'll defend
00:45Fight the zone
00:46Zone prize
00:48Earth's most powerful soldiers
00:51Or Earth's last chance
00:53Against the spirals
00:56Zone
00:57Spirals
01:01Zone writers
01:03Looks like we're coming to a commercial
01:05Let's fight the zone
01:09Zone
01:14Zone
01:16Zone
01:18Come here.
01:48Sure, this is much better.
02:00Wait a minute.
02:01We're supposed to be behind him.
02:18Hold on, Max.
02:20Look, Commander, they haven't set off the pod yet.
02:23We can't get through, Max.
02:25Call back to the vehicle.
02:28Whatever you say, Commander.
02:48He's nuts.
02:57Maniac.
03:04It's the old.
03:18I think it's time for you to leave.
03:22Good idea, tank.
03:23I...
03:24Hit the smoke.
03:48Deconate the zone pod.
04:18We could have used cat on this one.
04:43Uh, using my new process, we can remove a third of the atoms without damaging the Neutron
04:5090 crystals.
04:51The suits will still resist the zone effect, but will give us enough Neutron 90 to make
04:56another suit for a new zone rider.
04:58Yes, yes.
05:00Ben, I'm a bit confused by this data.
05:03This indicates that we should have enough Neutron 90 for two new suits.
05:07I'm not sure there will be enough.
05:09I mean, it's all in my report, sir.
05:12Yes, quite.
05:13Now I remember, some of the atoms are lost during the extraction process.
05:21Keep up the good work, my boy.
05:23Thank you, sir.
05:25Lieutenant Franklin, there is no need to feel nervous around Dr. Lawrence.
05:31Oh, sorry.
05:32I guess I get nervous around almost anybody.
05:36I never really learned how to deal with people.
05:38I've spent all 18 years of my life in labs and libraries, at least most of it.
05:44I never played much with the other kids.
05:46And when they played baseball or something, I was always the last one to get picked for
05:50the team.
05:51I know exactly how you feel.
05:55Things will be different now that I'm going to be a zone rider.
05:58I've been waiting all my life for a chance like this.
06:07There were just too many zoners, General.
06:09Especially with us short-handed.
06:11Well, you'll have a full team on your next mission.
06:13Now that all the suits have been drained of their excess Neutron 90.
06:17Come on, there's someone I'd like you to meet.
06:18His name is Ned Tucker.
06:46He's Australian.
06:47He has a master's degree in physics.
06:54Five years in the military.
06:56And so far, a perfect score on the firing range.
06:59Perfect?
07:06Hey, sorry, General.
07:08Must have hit the wrong switch there.
07:09He's also the most undisciplined officer I've ever seen.
07:13But he's a first-class soldier.
07:14How'd you like to have him in the Zone Riders?
07:18Well, wait a minute.
07:18I thought Franklin was going to have the new suit.
07:21I'm afraid that decision has been changed.
07:24Franklin may be a genius, but he's young and inexperienced.
07:28Tucker's a combat pilot and an explosives expert.
07:31Franklin will be more valuable here at MCC as Dr. Lawrence's assistant.
07:35Has Franklin been told?
07:36Not yet, but I am glad you asked.
07:41But they told me I would be the new Zone Rider.
07:46Now, it's nothing personal, Franklin.
07:48It's just that MCC thought it best to go with a more experienced combat soldier.
07:53He's a great pilot, an explosives expert.
07:55I am so sorry, Ben.
07:59Leave me alone, please.
08:08A Zone Rider meant more to him than anything else in the world.
08:11I know, Kat.
08:12But we all have to serve where we're needed.
08:14No matter how unpleasant it may be.
08:17I knew it was too good to be true.
08:20Now, I'll never be a Zone Rider.
08:22Unless...
08:23There is enough Neutron 90 for two suits.
08:28One for them, and one for me.
08:32As we found out, Overlord's headquarters is too well-guarded to get into.
08:47But it might be possible to get a man inside the intruder's hangar.
08:51Overlord believes that we only have five Zone Suits.
08:55So if all five of us original Zone Riders attack,
08:58Overlord will commit all his forces to stop us.
09:01And Ned can sneak in the back door.
09:04Precisely.
09:05By traveling beneath the street.
09:08Lieutenant Tucker will be equipped with these special stun charges.
09:12They work like stun grenades, but they can be triggered automatically.
09:15When the intruder is launched,
09:17the charges will go off and stun Overlord and the Black Widow.
09:21A special flare will signal that the charges have been activated,
09:24and you can move in and capture them.
09:33Remember, this is only to take their attention off the hangar.
09:36Okay, let's let them know we're here.
09:38How many Zone Riders?
09:47All five of them, Overlord.
09:51All forces, attack the Zone Riders immediately.
09:56Please.
10:15All right.
10:15This is a password.
10:18It had more.
10:18Ah, bloody wonderful. My first mission and it's in a bloody sewer.
10:36I have no take.
10:54Check the rooftop, hero.
11:00Miss again, Jake?
11:16Maybe I meant to miss my friend.
11:30And that's what I call one big bird.
11:56Overlord, demand it.
11:59Someone else is with us.
12:26That's never happened on a firing range.
12:38Stay tuned. The Zone Riders will be back.
12:45And now we return with more Spiral Zone action.
12:57A new one.
13:00Dr. Lawrence must have found more Neutron-90.
13:07Zone him.
13:12Guard him until I return.
13:14I've been waiting all my life for this.
13:26A chance to prove myself.
13:29Overlord to all Black Widows.
13:44Fall back through Central Park and be certain to draw the Zone Riders in after you.
13:50A chance to fire to Overlord. Now entering Central Park.
14:09Hero to Commander. The Black Widows are retreating into the park.
14:21Courage to Tucker. Come in, Ned.
14:24I've lost contact with Ned.
14:26Overlord's power plant is nearby.
14:28It may be interfering with his signal.
14:31Yeah, I just hope he's still setting the charges in the hangar.
14:34We have to keep the Black Widows busy until we know Ned's in the clear.
14:39Advance into the park.
15:01Look out.
15:04It's a trap!
15:13Well, Ned may or may not need help, but here goes.
15:34I did it!
16:04Get out of the park.
16:11Withdrawal.
16:19Activate the laser barrier.
16:25And the minefield.
16:34I feel like a whole mob of kangaroos jumped on me head.
17:02You were zoned until I put your helmet back on.
17:05I'm Ben Franklin.
17:07Go fly a kite.
17:12I guess you're surprised to see me.
17:14Nah.
17:15See no lady, you run into everybody in Grand Central Station.
17:19What I can't understand is how do they know I was in here?
17:23This room is probably equipped with Neutron 90 detectors.
17:26The trace energy given off by Neutron 90 is theoretically detectable in an enclosed space.
17:30Yeah? And just, where did you find out about all that?
17:35College.
17:36Oh.
17:47Come on, Max.
17:54Get under the bridge.
17:55This plan's a washout now that overlord nerds aren't been in here.
18:08My only job now is to help Commander Courage and the other Zone Riders.
18:12Could you fly the intruder if I get us past its security systems?
18:16Roy, you just get me inside, mate.
18:18We're going straight out, through the lasers.
18:24I know we should not have gone into Central Park at night.
18:31I will meet you back at the Eagle.
18:34You're darn right, you will.
18:36All right.
18:37Let's go.
18:38Let's go.
18:38Let's go.
18:40Let's go.
19:10Back!
19:11Keep going!
19:21Back!
19:26Back!
19:36Back!
19:36Back!
19:37Back!
19:39Back!
19:40Back!
19:40Back!
19:40No! They cannot use my own aircraft against me!
19:50Somebody find me a clear spot! We're coming in!
20:10I, uh, I meant to do that. He's torn a gap through the laser.
20:31Is this sort of thing happening all the time? Let's get out of here!
20:35Hi, Commander. I suppose you're wondering... Go!
20:40I could have you court-martialed for what you did. You deceived MCC.
20:55But, but, but, but, MCC deceived me first. I'm sorry.
21:00You're right, General McFarlane. What I did was stupid.
21:04Stopping the Overlord is more important than getting what I want.
21:07Give this to somebody who deserved it. I apologize, Dr. Lawrence.
21:12Well, we'll, uh, we'll need a man who's proved himself in combat.
21:16A man who's earned his place.
21:18So, if General McFarlane agrees...
21:22Me?
21:23Hey. Why are you looking so surprised, mate?
21:26Welcome to the Zone Riders, Ben!
21:28We'll be right back with more Spiral Zone action.
21:37And now we return with more Spiral Zone adventure.
21:40Earth's most powerful soldiers fight the Spiral Zone.
21:52Our world calls for courage, peace, and freedom.
21:59Freedom, we must stone.
22:04We will fight, on our honor, what is right.
22:08We'll defend, fight the Zone.
22:11Zone Riders, Earth's most powerful soldiers.
22:15Our Earth's last chance against the Spiral Zone.
22:24Spiral Zone!
