- November 16, 2002
In the seventh episode of Getbackers season 1, titled “Beast Master’s Transformation,” Ban and Ginji find themselves in a strange situation when a former coworker Miroku Tsuchida, known as the "beast master," hires them to retrieve a valuable item. The catch is that the item is in the possession of Miroku’s own pet, a powerful beast known as the Sphinx.
Miroku explains to Ban and Ginji that he has been experimenting with a special potion that enhances the abilities of animals, and he believes that the Sphinx has ingested a large dose of this potion, turning it into an unstoppable beast capable of destroying anything in its path. Miroku tasks the Getbackers with retrieving the valuable item and keeping the Sphinx under control until he can find a way to reverse the transformation.
With no other options, Ban and Ginji accept the job and head to Miroku’s lab to get more information. There, they meet Miroku’s assistant Yumiko, who warns them about the dangers of dealing with the Sphinx. Despite her warnings, Ban and Ginji set off to find the beast and retrieve the item in question.
As they set out on their mission, Ban and Ginji soon discover that the Sphinx is not just any ordinary beast. It possesses incredible strength, agility, and intelligence, making it nearly impossible to even lay a finger on. As they struggle to keep the Sphinx under control, Ban and Ginji also encounter a rival group who are after the same item, leading to a fierce battle between the two parties.
Meanwhile, Miroku frantically works on a formula to reverse the transformation on the Sphinx. However, he soon realizes that the potion he used on the Sphinx was not his own creation, but instead, it was sold to him by a mysterious man in a black suit. Miroku realizes that he has been working for the wrong people and is now in grave danger.
As Ban and Ginji finally manage to retrieve the item, they are confronted by the mysterious man in the black suit, who reveals himself to be the real mastermind behind the potion and the transformation of the Sphinx. The man, known as the “Phantom Panther,” possesses powerful abilities, making him nearly impossible to defeat.
With their backs against the wall, Ban and Ginji realize that they need to work together to defeat the Phantom Panther and save Miroku from his clutches. The battle that ensues is a test of their strength, teamwork, and determination as they fight to protect their friend and retrieve the valuable item.
In the end, Ban and Ginji emerge victorious, but not without consequences. Miroku is left questioning his own actions and the true nature of his experiments, while Ban and Ginji realize that the Getbackers’ work is never truly done as they face new challenges every day.
Overall, “Beast Master’s Transformation” is an action-packed episode that showcases the incredible abilities of Ban and Ginji as they face one of their toughest challenges yet.
