Ep. 47: Eggman plans planetary destruction via a battleship and the world's navel, forcing Sonic to face unexpected challenges.
Aired on February 22, 2004

47
Dr. Eggman announces his intention to annihilate the planet by deploying a massive battleship and activating the "navel of the world," a structure located within the submarine volcanic range. Sonic and his allies attempt to thwart this plan but encounter significantly greater difficulties and surprising revelations than they had originally expected. The narrative draws clear inspiration from the 1969 science fiction film Latitude Zero, with the Japanese title closely mirroring that movie's name and the episode containing multiple visual and thematic homages to the source material.
