In the year 1954, a half-century ago,

our country suffered
a terrible attack by Godzilla.

Our capital was a battlefield.

Only the courage of the men before us
saved this country from total destruction.

That battle was the only real battle

that our Self-Defense Forces
have had to fight

since their foundation
in that same year, 1954.

Since then, our country
has enjoyed a long period of prosperity.

However, the peril has not disappeared.

A few years ago,

a giant monster, resembling Godzilla,
attacked the U.S.

Since that attack,

there have been
numerous sightings in various countries.

All the sightings
have been catalogued by the Defense Forces.

That attack was Godzilla, right?

That's what all the American experts claim.

We now possess
the most comprehensive database...

But our guys here have doubts.

The database is constantly being
updated with new information.

Regarding the Recovery
of American Nuclear Submarine

Dispatch orders?

Dismissed!

Division, attention!

Hey! A U.S. nuclear sub's missing!

Prepare for briefing!
Come on, people, let's go!

Let's move it.

An American nuclear submarine
is missing off Guam in international waters.

This morning, the navy sent
a search and rescue unit

to help with efforts to locate the missing
submarine and its crew members.

Because of the potential nuclear risk,

the navy is dispatching
the rescue submersible Satsuma.

A navy cruiser with the Satsuma on board

will be leaving the port
of Yokosuka later today.

Both vessels will be helping the
Americans with their rescue efforts.

We'll bring you all the developments
as they happen.

Satsuma approaching search area.

There seems to have been an explosion.

It's a giant monster!

What's going on?

What's happening down there?
What's that on the screen?

I don't believe it!

It can't be happening!

Traditionally,
Mount Myoko was thought to be

the ancient gateway to the lost world.

We're here to solve a mystery
as ancient as the mountain itself.

And that mystery
concerns the monster of the mountain.

What was that? The monster?

All right! Cut!

Hey, you! Hey! Stop it!
Stop shooting! You hear me?

Stop shooting immediately! Do you hear?

What do you mean?
Look, we've got a permit to film here.

You didn't say it was going to be
a work of fiction when you applied.

No. It was supposed to be a documentary!

- Look, it's a docu-drama if you like.
- You call it what you like.

I looked up your BS Digital Q. Listen to this.

"Specialized in low-budget drama series.

"Favorite themes are ESP
and alien life forms."

We don't want your kind of people
ruining the reputation of honest villagers!

Now, get lost!

Please don't be like that, sir.

Think of the kids.

They love stories of ghosts and monsters.

In the States, there are many
stories about witches.

They've made
some of the villages famous worldwide.

Fifty years after Godzilla,

a giant monster appears here
when everyone's forgotten.

Everyone in Japan would want to come here.

And you'll take credit for it?

What was that?

It's all right. It's over.

I'm sorry.

Gee, that was something!

So may we continue, please?

Sure, go right ahead!

Yes, I'm sure your film's going to
attract thousands of tourists.

Thanks!

Great! Right. Okay.

- Hey! The camera, you got it?
- Yeah. It's here.

Our village will be famous the world over.

I was even interviewed on camera.

And who knows?
You may become a movie star.

Is that your wife? Is that your brother, baby?

Come on!

- Let's go!
- Come on, baby.

- Get out of here.
- Get out of here.

Got it!

Did you see what they did? They wrecked it!

Come on.

Get off the road!

Hey! What the hell are you doing?

You're gonna kill yourselves!

An earthquake?

Hold it!

Jeez!

But there was an earthquake last night.
Didn't you hear about it?

I just can't understand it. It wasn't recorded!

Well, maybe it was just too far away.

But the epicenter moved.

What? Hey, what are you talking about?

That's not all.

I heard an eerie voice as well.

Let me take a crew and check it out.

You see, I got a hunch about this.

- Yuri!
- Yeah.

Listen, our specialty is making cheap sci-fi
series, not investigative reporting.

But this could be a great chance
to make something worthwhile.

Come on, if we want to survive
we're gonna have to change

and concentrate on quality.

Look, it's no good. Our client expects us
to make low-budget stuff.

Not news documentaries.

- Huh?
- What?

We're above the tunnel right now,
10 miles south of Mount Myoko.

This is where 20 people were buried alive.

The road has been closed, and rescue
operations are continuing to find the bodies.

The entrance to the tunnel
is blocked by hundreds of tons of rock

and access, for now, is impossible.

Come on. All right. Slowly. Come on.

All right, lift it slowly.

Help them out!

D-03 unit. Locked on target.

Fire!

And will it explode once inside?

What if the explosion's too strong?

Don't worry it's under control.

You said there's a witness?

Sure, sure. Over here. Here.

It had a big head and mouth, eyes, ears.

And you say the thing was alive?

Yeah.

Godzilla.

It's Godzilla!

Sometimes I wish I wasn't born a woman.

Why's that?

I think you make a great girl.

Because I'm not allowed
to make the programs I want to make.

As a woman,
you're expected to do as you're told.

- That sucks, don't you think?
- Good evening!

- Good evening, sir.
- Hey there!

- So, who's this?
- So, you got my message?

No one believes
the moving epicenter story, I'm afraid.

However...

The Guardian Monsters.

"The Guardian Monsters." What's this?

It may be a clue to what happened yesterday.

And it makes interesting reading, believe me.

Who's he?

- Come on!
- Yeah.

- Look at this.
- Grab some of those chips.

- Yeah.
- Grab everything.

Check it out! Yeah!

- Get me some chips.
- Go on, grab as much as you can.

Quick! They're coming here.

Come on. We gotta get out of here.

Goddamn mutt!

Hey, over there.

All right.

- Easy.
- Let's party!

- What's the matter?
- I don't like dogs.

Don't worry, I'll get rid of him for you.

All right, come on. Let's get the fire going.

- Come on.
- Yeah.

- All right.
- Bye!

Come on, row harder.

Show your muscles.

Hurry up. Come on.

Why don't we get rid of this stupid dog?
Just dump him overboard.

Hey, look. I think they fell overboard.

Hey, guys, let's go onboard.

What the hell's going on here?

What's the matter? Can't you...

Help me!

What's that?

I just brought Yuri back home, sir.

So I see. I'm grateful to you.

It's okay.

Father!

What a surprise.

Yuri reporting for duty.

I don't find this funny. All right?

I'm sorry for all the trouble.

No really. Here.

Good night, sir.

- See you tomorrow.
- You're drunk again.

No, I'm not.

Drink some water. I'll run a bath.

- How's work?
- Fine, thanks.

What's up?
Something bothering you at work?

No, not at all.
The job's fine, the people are great.

It's just a pity that the programs
you make are such garbage.

Then don't watch them.

Who was the guy? Last night.

That's Takeda.

- Is he your boyfriend?
- No, he helps me with research.

He's a science writer.

If you two were going out,
I should have been nicer to him.

You were fine, Dad.

I'm the one who was out of order last night.

- I'm sorry.
- No. I'm sorry!

Eleven young people
met their deaths yesterday at Lake Ikeda

when their boat suddenly overturned.

Their bodies were found this morning
wrapped in a cocoon.

The young men and women
were on a cycling trip from Tokyo

and were camped at Lake Ikeda,
southern Kyushu.

The cause of their deaths isn't yet known.

- It's Ikeda.
- Southern Kyushu. That's strange.

And forensic scientists
from Tokyo have been...

That's where Takamori Saigo was exiled to.

A police spokesman said today...

Over 100 years ago.

...that it is too early to comment further.

It's not a coincidence.

So, some prediction says
hundreds of people will die

somewhere near Mount Fuji, right?

And you think we should publish it?

But it isn't just a prediction.

Mount Myoko, Lake Ikeda.
All the places are in the book.

About last night, are you still mad?

- Huh?
- Look, I'm very sorry.

Normally, I don't drink.

Look, there's no need to apologize.
Why should I be mad at you?

He's just embarrassed
at having left you behind.

Yeah. It was my responsibility
to see you home.

Sure.

Just count yourself lucky you didn't.

- I got a good scare.
- It wasn't so bad!

Your dad's a total soldier.

I did piss him off.

Tell me, Lieutenant.

Did you actually see it?

- Yes. sir.
- And can you describe what you saw?

Yes, it was like the fin of a huge creature.

- What?
- Fin?

It's believed Godzilla
fed off the energy radiated by the submarine.

Yes, but who can prove that it was Godzilla?

Even if it was Godzilla,
it hasn't been seen for 50 years.

Why would it choose this moment in time
to come back here?

It doesn't make any sense.

And why should it choose Japan again?

Nobody can answer that question.

But we have to be ready
for the worst scenario.

Couldn't he have picked on
some other country?

Whenever we increase our defense spending,

we're accused of depleting
the government's resources.

Even if it does come back again,

our forces are now equipped
with weapons that are far more advanced

than anything we had before.

Oh, yeah. Sure.

In fact, he's a well-known character
around these parts.

Yeah. He lives in the woods,

and is always telling anyone
who'll listen, "Godzilla will return one day!"

As if anyone gives a damn.

Please.

It's him.

You know him?

- I saw him at Mount Myoko.
- Huh?

Mount Myoko in Niigata prefecture?

Must be a mistake.

He was caught destroying some old shrine
and so we had to lock him up.

By the way, have you visited our website yet?

Yes, it's very interesting.

Well, you see, I'm the webmaster.

The time has come.

We don't have much time left.

Go to the sacred place
where the great Ghidorah lies sleeping.

Ghidorah?

You must also wake the thousand-year-old
dragon before it's too late.

And maybe together they can stop him.

In the ancient legends
they talk about three guardian monsters,

Baragon, Mothra and Ghidorah.

Ghidorah was known
as the eight-headed dragon.

The men responsible for killing them
called them the Sacred Monsters.

The people began to worship
the beasts' souls

that were supposed to sleep for 10,000 years.

Despite having killed the monsters,

the ancient people
still prayed for their souls.

Do you think that Ghidorah is alive?

Only 2,000 years have gone by.
It's much too early for that.

Ghidorah still has some more growing to do.

Once he is grown, he'll be the strongest.

What have you got there?

I'm sure that the old man
must have put it here.

What makes you say it was him?

I just know. I can feel it.

Yeah! When he made the gesture, in the cell.

That's right. I'm sure he meant this stone.

But I don't understand it.

Hey, look. It's gone.

What?

You see here? It's disappeared.

The storm has worsened to a typhoon
and is heading slowly northwards.

Winds have reached
force 10 to 1 1 in the Bonin Islands

and conditions are not likely
to improve locally

until tomorrow evening
or Thursday morning.

You won again.

I wonder if we can dive tomorrow.

Hey, what's that?

The old lady here told me about those.

They're pictures from 50 years ago.

Godzilla attacked an island near here.

Yeah. But I thought that the army
killed Godzilla, right?

Sure. But it wasn't that
poor creature's fault, right?

- No!
- How on earth could they do such a thing?

Godzilla would be great as a pet!

Hey! That wasn't an earthquake.

Artillery shells can do nothing to stop it.

This animal has survived for eons.

Atomic weapons and energy have given it
extraordinary capacities for survival.

But it's still an animal
and it can still be defeated.

But, I repeat, not with any weapons.

This animal represents

the collective will to survive
of many thousands of people.

Collective will?

This animal contains the restless souls
of the countless people

who perished during the terrible battles
that took place during the Pacific conflict.

Their souls?

In Godzilla?

Say, Yuri,
do you really believe that old fart, huh?

Well, he's not making it up. I know that.

In Godzilla, the souls of all
those people who died have combined...

Everything he's told us
was written in this book.

...to bring life to the monster.

You know, one of my wife's relatives,
she said she was trampled by Godzilla.

Believe me, I have tried to warn people
but they refused to listen.

Really? That's interesting.

They think I'm mad.

If you ask me, Godzilla's old hat.

Never mind.

But tell me,
why does Godzilla keep attacking Japan?

Just carry on with your project.

Why does it want to destroy us?

Because the Japanese people
want to forget what happened.

What?

They have deemed it preferable to forget

the pain and the agony they inflicted

on all those people!

We're above Magonoté village now.

The place has been completely leveled.

It seems to have been
due to a landslide. Over.

Roger. Can you see any survivors? Over.

Nothing yet.

We'll make another low-level pass
and check. Over.

- Hey! That hill wasn't there before!
- What?

That hill!

Albatross, what's happening?

My God! It's moving! Mayday! Mayday!

Albatross! Come in please! Albatross!

Hey! Come in!

"The earth remembers.

"The stones remember.

"If the earth and stones could only speak,
they would tell us many things."

It's from a proverb, from American Indians.

Stones can record history like a CD.

Pressurized granite
records geological information.

So rocks can yield up history
just like a CD can.

You follow me?

If spirits are another form of electricity,

maybe there's a way for them
to be stored in stone.

Could he have done that?

Of course, and then
he could have released all the souls

and managed to find a way
to channel the souls

and somehow put them
into the guardian monsters to wake them up.

But why would he want to do that?

To protect Japan from Godzilla!

Monster!

From information contained
in these reports by the Defense agency,

we have now come to the conclusion

that the monster
that attacked the American submarine

and a Japanese island

is likely to have been Godzilla.

So the government
has issued a security bulletin

for all areas around the coast of Japan.

Godzilla! Godzilla's coming!
He's going to kill us all!

Godzilla!

Come on, Father!
The least you could do is tell me!

What could I tell you?

Come on! I mean about Godzilla, of course!
I'm a reporter!

Then you should have other sources.

Don't rely on me.

Maritime Defense Agency vessels
will be dispatched to the southern sea areas.

Look, I should tell you.
I have some important information for you.

Starboard 15. Half ahead.

Clear forward deck!

Report from the Ako. Southeast area clear.

Anything on long-range scans?

Incoming message from Wakashi,
point 7,000 clear.

It's been three days already.

Still no sign of Godzilla, sir.

To be honest, some of the men
don't think Godzilla exists.

So, you see, Baragon, Mothra and Ghidorah

are there to protect us,
the guardian monsters.

I don't understand. Why attack us then?

Well, what they're defending
is our homeland.

Yes, that's the difference. Our homeland.
Nothing to do with the nation.

The homeland means the mountains
and rivers and forests and things.

You really believe this fairy tale?

All I can say, Father, is his story's believable.
Do you have a better story?

But one thing I don't understand
is our soldiers died for their country.

So why do they now want to destroy Japan?

The Asian people who lost their lives
and the Americans

and those who died
in the nuclear bombing all became one.

Morning, sir.
I've just returned from the Bonins.

Glad to see you, Captain.

My daughter.

The island's a disaster zone.

I'm afraid the government
has decided to cancel operations.

- Huh?
- They've cancelled everything?

We're to maintain our surveillance.

However, the minister doubts its existence.

These years of peace seem to have dimmed
the memories of what happened.

But I haven't forgotten those events, Captain.

Oh, no.

I remember perfectly.

Fifty years ago, the sky was red.

Buildings and railroads
destroyed by Godzilla.

A nightmare.

Its huge and menacing figure

slowly advancing.

I could see its head.
The head of a devil enraged with hate.

Move it! Come on!

I ran.

I ran for my life, trying to find a refuge.

And when the terror ended,
my parents were gone.

- Mom! Mom, where are you?
- Gone forever.

I, for one, shall never forget those events.

The terrible screams
of the people being trampled.

Yes. That's right.

Send your report urgently. Right.

The epicenter. Readings show
it's moving underground.

Nagano reports
the epicenter's moved underground.

Yes, sir, we're tracking it now.

Epicenter still moving
in a southward direction.

Keep me posted.

Do you think
we should issue another warning?

It won't make a difference.
They're not even ready to move yet.

More updates.

Better tell the Commander.

I recorded it. My father's story.

Good idea.
I found it very moving, to be honest.

Welcome! Hello, sir!

I don't think we should use it, do you?

Are you calling me
a good for nothing daughter?

In that case,
you should be able to convince him

about the guardian monsters, shouldn't you?

And here is the latest earthquake update.

Yeah, well, Dad's also a Navy Commander.

It now appears that the earthquake
in Nagano prefecture is not over.

The epicenter seems to be moving strangely
and is heading in a southerly direction.

- The epicenter, it's moving!
- I heard.

It was felt first in Niigata,
and later on this afternoon in Shizuoka.

Civil Defense Agencies
have been put on red alert.

The guardian monsters!

If it's Niigata, it must be Baragon.

Niigata, Ikeda and Fuji.

According to the latest data,
if I understand it,

we have another monster
apart from Godzilla moving underground.

That's impossible.

But we have proof
this is definitely a living entity.

Yes. And even more incredible,

the locations concerned are exactly the
locations that are mentioned in the legend.

What?

You mean the guardian monsters, sir?

You know about the ancient legend too?

It was a monster!
It was there in that cave underground!

I tell you, it had a horrible head on it!

It's going to come and get us!

Well, if you're sure about it,
why not put it on your website?

But I'm telling you it's true!

Godzilla!

Godzilla!

Come on! Move! Come on!

Attention mobile units.

It's huge and it's heading southwest.

We have received a report that the monster
causing the tremors has surfaced.

What is it?

The monster looks like Godzilla.

Godzilla?

Emergency Announcement

Giant monster Appeared
Motosu Police Department

- The monster's come up.
- What kind?

A guardian monster? Or Godzilla?

The monster is at least 30 meters long.

It walks on all fours and has a reddish skin.

It's moving through Gotemba,
near Mount Fuji.

A red monster?

Not Godzilla?

The information we're receiving's
still pretty confused, sir.

But we do know that it's not Godzilla.

I think we should send
the fighter squadron based at the coast.

The anti-Godzilla plan?

Negative.

The latest reports coming in
say that the red Godzilla is still on the move.

Well, we'll soon be back in port.

The latest sighting
was at Gotemba near Mount Fuji.

Hey, skip, Red Godzilla's at Gotemba.

What do you mean? Godzilla isn't red.

It's heading south, but there's...

- It's heading this way, skipper.
- Go on, get the lines ready.

What's going on?

Look!

It's Godzilla!

Memories of the Ash of Death

Towards a future with no Nuclear Weapons

It's Godzilla!

Godzilla is at Yaizu.

Well, then, what's that at Gotemba?

All right now, that's enough!
We must wait for confirmation.

We've searched everywhere for it

but we just couldn't find it.

Tell all army units to stand by.

Kiyomizu Central Hospital

Godzilla has been confirmed at Shimizu

and is now reported
to be heading northwards, sir.

All fighter units are on red alert!
Ready to go, sir.

Is there time?

- Minister!
- We have to wait for the cabinet's decision.

Godzilla's outside!

Evacuate the shop immediately!

- Get out of here!
- Evacuate?

Godzilla is just a legend!

Godzilla.

Children, we have to evacuate the school.
Now clear your desks.

Yes, miss.

Atom bomb?

Yuri.

So, you're not afraid?

No. I want to see it.

The guardian monster might attack us.
Have you thought of that?

Yuri. Have you got the stone?

In my bag.

You think it will protect us?

Godzilla has been seen
heading towards the spa town of Hakone.

A meeting of all cabinet ministers
is now taking place

to decide what measures
should be taken for defense.

All Defense Agency personnel...

- Follow that helicopter!
- We'll never catch it in a car.

Godzilla's there. He's here already.

The air force is ready to undertake...

That's it.

What do you mean?

I think I've found it,
where that monster's heading to, I mean.

Where?

Without a doubt,
it's heading towards Godzilla

Godzilla?

Yes, sir, near Hakone.
And at this rate, he'll be here tomorrow.

If we act immediately,
we can place artillery at the Sagami river, sir.

But can we be sure he's heading this way?

I'm certain he is.
He's heading right for Tokyo, like last time.

But why? Why always here?

Baragon sighted, sir, at Hakone.

Have they managed
to evacuate everybody yet?

Hey, look.

- Whoa!
- What is that?

Get a load of that monster!

It's scary. But quite cute, really.

Hey, quick. Take a photo. And then we'll run!

I think the monsters are gonna fight, sir.

Are you sure?

Hey, look!

It's gonna be some fight!

Look. The whole thing's
live on the television.

It's unbelievable! Godzilla is
much bigger than I thought he'd be!

Idiots!

Get out of our airspace!

The red monster
has suddenly disappeared underground!

Godzilla's looking around.

He doesn't seem to understand
where his enemy's gone.

There are still
hundreds of people in the area.

Hey, where's that helicopter?

They're all running
for their lives trying to escape!

They've outsmarted us!

- Help!
- Come on!

We've got to get out of here!

My God, it's Godzilla!

It really is enormous.

And there's our guardian monster.

Our monster hasn't got a chance.

Godzilla's kicking the red monster
in the gravel pits!

Looks like the red monster's in big trouble!

It's terrible. I don't want to watch it.

Shut up! You're here to film, so get filming!

- Quick. Hurry up, you're missing it!
- Right.

Folks, we have a real grandstand view
of this rumble here.

And Godzilla puts the boot in again.

Looks like the red monster is down and out.

And the red monster
has climbed out of the gravel pits!

It's trying to escape! Run! Go on!

He's right behind you!

Go on, get out of there!

- They're dead.
- Huh?

The two men in the helicopter.

They're dead.

Yuri!

Look!

Yuri! Yuri!

Make room! Out of the way!

I need some help over here.

You'll be okay, miss.

Just keep it. Over here, quick.

Earlier today, Godzilla landed at Yaizu

and caused extensive damage
in the Shimizu and Fuji areas.

Later, Godzilla moved on to the Hakone area
where it battled another unknown creature.

Residents have been asked
to leave the area calmly...

What's up? You lost your parents?

Hey, miss, will we die?

No, don't worry.

Everything's gonna work out fine, you'll see.

And there's the guardian monsters.
They could help us.

Hey do you work for Digital Q?

Yes. Yes, do you watch us?

Tell me, miss.

Did you see the monsters?

Friendly monsters
are fighting Godzilla for us.

So don't you worry.

Everything's gonna be fine.

- Great.
- This way.

Just scratches, I'll be fine

It's too dangerous.

- Can I have the car keys?
- No, you can't.

- Gee, thanks.
- Look, haven't you done enough, Yuri?

And now a huge cocoon-like structure
is floating on the lake.

Many people have gathered
at the water's edge to see the sight.

We haven't seen this kind of crowd
for almost 20 years.

Nobody has ever seen anything like it
and its origin remains a total mystery.

Evacuate the area.
Close all doors and windows...

Hello. Hi. I need a bicycle.

Well, I don't have any with baskets left.

I sold out of them a couple of hours ago.

- Please evacuate in an orderly manner.
- Right, this one.

The invoice made out to BS Digital.

BS... Oh, Bridgestone?

Huh?

General Migumo,
you shall lead the counterattack.

Understood?

Thank you, sir. I won't fail you.

For security's sake,
this will be the command center.

Dispatch fighter units immediately!

Yes, sir!

Flight Command, scramble fighters.

I need constant updates.

That lizard picked on the wrong guy here.

Please evacuate in an orderly manner.

Do not use your personal vehicles.

Please proceed towards Tokyo

where you will be
given transportation to leave the area.

Only take essential belongings with you.

Therefore the government
has decided to use the army

to counter the threat
our country is under today,

and the necessary measures
are now in place.

Our counterattack operations
are underway tonight.

Hello. Yuri!

Hey, where are you? Huh?

I'll send you the footage I get of Godzilla.

Yeah, I want you to push back
tonight's shows.

Whatever you've got scheduled tonight,
this is way more important.

God damn, she's always doing the opposite
of what she's supposed to be doing!

What's got into her?

We can't cancel it.

Why can't we cancel?

We can play tonight's show next week.

- Right, prepare to go live.
- Right!

And I'll want an Internet link, too!

Camera two.

Yuri! I want it straight
from the lizard's mouth! Okay?

Hey, Yuri, take care.

Okay.

Missiles away!

This report comes to you
from BS Digital Q TV,

bargain basement of the airwaves,

and our star reporter,
who is on the scene near to Godzilla.

"Bargain basement of the airwaves"?

Take it away, Yuri!

It's no good. The missiles had no effect, sir.

Try attacking it from the side.

It must have a weak point, go on!

It's not gonna make any difference!

Blue Leader, come in! Come in, Blue Leader.

Sir, we're waiting for your orders.

Hey, look, what's that?

Hurry! Let's get out of here!

Come on, hurry!

Get me off this boat.

So, Minister, in the '50s,
did we really get rid of Godzilla?

At the time I doubted it.

But I taught my men
to be proud of what they did.

I wonder, was it worth it?

Godzilla is now moving east.

He's heading towards Tokyo.

Fifty years ago,
the first Godzilla attack was repulsed.

The animal was killed
using an unknown chemical compound.

The inventor has since died
and his records disappeared.

Existing weapons
were totally useless back then.

The Defense Forces
could do nothing to stop Godzilla.

So the government decided
to keep what happened a secret.

If people knew the true story,

then our Defense Forces
would have faced ridicule.

Hence the need for the utmost secrecy,
you understand?

So I'm relying on your discretion.

Commander Tachibana,
do you have a daughter named Yuri?

I do.

Hundreds of people
have been killed by Godzilla.

Burned to death
or trampled underfoot by the monster.

But there is resistance,
not only from our Defense Forces,

but also from other monsters.

They're joining forces to stop Godzilla.

Stupid girl.

- We'll try to protect her.
- Arrest her!

Report from Lake Ikeda.
The cocoon has opened, sir.

Another one?

Look at that.

The thousand-year dragon.

Ghidorah.

Are you coming, Ghidorah?

We've received news.
A new monster's been seen at Mount Fuji.

What the hell's going on?

It's like a monster convention here!

Do we know where it is now?

It's heading east from Mount Fuji.

It's flying straight towards Godzilla.

Direction confirmed.

What's going to happen, Commander?

The guardian monsters are gathering.

They're here to protect us from Godzilla.

Whatever happens,
we must not attack the guardian monsters.

They are not our enemy.

Why not name the monsters
so we don't get them mixed up, General?

It would make things a lot easier here.

Well, it sounds a bit far-fetched.

General, please give me a fleet.

Attention all units.

It now seems that several monsters
are gathering in the area.

The red one will be codenamed Baragon.

The flying insect, Mothra.

And the golden monster
codenamed Ghidorah.

The red one is Baragon.
The flying insect is Mothra.

The golden one is Ghidorah.

Captain Yamagachi!

Special Intervention Strike Force
reporting for duty!

We'll use the D-03 warheads
on all the missiles.

All right, Captain.
Everyone to battle stations.

Yes, sir!

Remember to shut off all gas appliances.

Leave your house lights on.

This will aid the military operation.

Please evacuate in an orderly fashion.

Proceed to regroupment areas
and await transportation.

I repeat, remember to shut off...

Good luck, everybody!

Yes, good luck, everyone! You're gonna die!

It seems so calm.

Yet soon it will be reduced
to a blazing pile of rubble.

This is the first time I've seen action.
I'm not looking forward to it.

But it's a soldier's duty.

We can go into battle
without relishing conflict.

Godzilla's here!
Get those searchlights over here!

Yes, sir.

God.

Mothra.

Man, that's one hell of a bug!

Look, there it goes! It's attacking Godzilla!

Yuri!

Oh, no, look out! Look, it's coming!

Jesus! My buddies were in there!

- What do we do?
- Nothing we can do.

Please, sir,
the men are still waiting for your orders.

Hold fire. Patience.

Ghidorah.

The guardian monsters are here.

They're all here.

Proceed into the bay.

We'll press our attack
from both land and the sea.

Moving into the bay, sir!

Better make sure our timing's right.

There won't be a second chance.

We'll wait till Godzilla's been wounded.
Then we'll attack.

Hey, where are you going?
This area is off limits.

- Hey, come back here!
- Hey, stop!

Let me go of me. Leave me alone.

- You're under arrest. Come on.
- Let go of me!

Stand by to commence attack!

All units, ready to move!

All units, fire!

All units, fire!

All units, commence firing!

80% destroyed! No, over 90% destroyed!

The Ako's exploded!
And we're damaged too, sir!

- I need a damage report.
- Right away, sir.

Main guns destroyed, sir.

Godzilla has seen us.

Mothra.

Thousand-year-old dragon.

King Ghidorah.

What the hell's going on out there?

Godzilla and the other monster
are fighting underwater, sir.

Godzilla seems to be wounded.

What I want to do is shoot a D-03
into Godzilla's wound.

It might just work.

The launchers have been damaged.
We can't launch the missiles.

I'll use the Satsuma.
Get one loaded on board.

Commander, the Satsuma's
just a research vessel.

It's not designed for war.

With a D-03 loaded on it,
it's gonna be very unstable.

We'll have to take that chance.
We don't have any choice.

You'll need cover, sir.

- Any torpedoes left?
- Two, sir.

Then wish me luck.

Good luck, sir.

The Satsuma is attacking Godzilla.

Use all remaining firepower
to cover the attack.

This has gotta work.

- Move it!
- Move it!

Commander Tachibana
is going to attack Godzilla

in a submersible using a D-03.

Use all remaining firepower
to cover the attack.

Try to weaken Godzilla as much as possible.

My father?

Come on, let's move it.

I'm getting you out of here.
The captain says you can't stay here, miss.

Can't someone else go?
Why the commander?

He's a commander, a senior officer.

Why does he have to go himself?

Because I have the most experience.

Father?

In these situations,
a ship's commander has to lead by example.

Now get to the safety area and stay low.

I've got a job to do.

Don't you understand?

Sure, I understand, but you're my daughter.

Is there a soldier there? Put him on.

Commander?

Soldier, give the lady carte blanche.

- But, sir...
- I'll take responsibility.

Yes, sir.

You're allowed to stay, miss.

Thank you,

Father.

You be careful.

Promise me.

Promise you'll come back alive.

Of course, I will.

You too.

Satsuma in launch position.

Stand by to launch submersible.

Here, take this. Hold the camera.

What for?

- To film me.
- Right.

We'll see if you really
are a guardian, Ghidorah.

Commander,

come back safely.

The warriors have risen up
to fight against Godzilla

with every weapon they can muster.

Nobody knows
if they'll succeed in their mission.

All I can do with my camera

is to record their struggle

to protect our freedom regardless of danger.

I'll be here, showing their battle,

until the very end.

Yuri!

Takeda.

With any luck, the wound will still be warm.

Switching to thermal imaging camera.

Fry, you goddamn lizard!

Good.

Fuck!

Let me go or we'll both fall.

I won't do it. I won't let go.

Takeda.

Damn you to hell.

Watch out, Commander!

Move the ship to safety.

Let me take care of Godzilla.

Alone?

Just do as I say.

Yuri!

Yuri.

It can't be right.
How much firepower can we get?

Ghidorah has been beaten.

Baragon?

Commander, don't!
Give it up! Abort the mission!

What's he doing?

Please don't.

Commander.

We've lost the feed.

Try and re-establish.

Nothing at all.

Switch frequency.

Keep looking.

Father? Father?

Don't let him win.

Yuri? Yuri!

- Takeda.
- Thank goodness. You're alive.

My father.

Where's my father? My father!

Yuri, thanks a lot.

He succeeded. He fired the missile.

Godzilla, he's vanished.

Godzilla's no longer on the radar.

He's gone.

He's disappeared completely.
I can't believe it.

And the sub?

He's alive.

He's okay.

All fighter units, return to base.

All units, this is code orange.

The submersible Satsuma has surfaced.

Commander Tachibana is alive.

This is the Command Center.
Situation is now code green.

Repeat, code green.

Aizu here.

Do you read, Salvage Sub 2?

I read you.

Let's go.

I'm coming, Commander.

Orders to attack, cancelled.

Yes. That's right, she works for us.

Yuri Tachibana. Yes.

Thank you very much.

It's Yuri. She's alive.

She's okay.

Wait! Why don't we do a special?

Yeah, with all this material
we'll win all the awards.

What's more?

We can include an interview
with that professor.

Yeah.

- That's gonna be difficult.
- Why?

Professor Isayama died a long time ago.
After the first Godzilla attack, in fact.

He was quite an old man.

He was 75.

The professor is dead?

Then who the hell is the old man?

Whoever he was, he's gone from the tape.

You can't be serious.

- Are you all right?
- Don't come any closer.

I haven't checked the radiation levels yet.

Father.

We'd better make sure.

Don't, please.

It wasn't just me.

There were others.

My colleagues

and the guardian monsters.
