SSA-3 King Joe STORAGE Custom is finally complete! With weapons equipped to every inch of its body, this super robot wields tremendous power. Meanwhile, Red King appears before STORAGE. It seems, however, that this Red King has a secret...
Tropes used in What Must Be Defended include:
- Didn't Think This Through: Unlike most of Haruki's Epic Fails while in the line of duty is concerned, this one is Played for Drama. After destroying one of the two Red Kings, he discovers a cavern that one of them protecting had an egg within it, only to find out that one of the Red King he and Z destroyed was actually the father; and understood the pain what its like to lose a father like he did when he was a child. Especially since he didn't stop to think about why the Red Kings were only defending one specific spot through their rampages after being woken up.
- Non-Malicious Monster: The two Red Kings were actually protecting their unborn child... as Haruki found that out too late.
- These Hands Have Killed: Haruki goes into a Thousand-Yard Stare-like state after he found out that one of the two Red Kings he and Z destroyed was actually a parent of its unhatched egg.
- Wham! Episode: This is the first time Haruki realizes that he accidentally kills a monster trying to protect its unborn child.
