   I had to ask ChatGPT what the heck is a "Pilder" (Pairudā), and it said:

   «It's the hovercraft that docks into the head of Mazinger Z to control it. "Pileder On" refers to the action of the Pileder connecting with Mazinger Z, essentially "turning on" the robot.»

   In the Italian adaption, this weird hybrid aircraft was renamed to Aliante Slittante (sliding gllider), which is both cringy and wrong.

   Evidently, the dubbers weren't aerospace engineers.
