I'll keep pushing forward with this power, as far as I can.

- Today I'll have this… - A juicy grilled pork lunch!

- And this. - A homemade tartar and seaweed lunch!

- Here you are. - Thank you.

Oh, I'll go ahead and throw in some fried chicken!

Are you sure?!

Of course. You're a preferred customer, Rin.

- Thank you! - My pleasure.

By the way, I heard that… Ultraman Arc, was it?

He defeated another kaiju!

I bet your job at SKIP will get a lot easier!

Well, we still do a lot of work. It just doesn't make the news.

Right, Yuma?

That's right!

Not that guy again! Honestly!

- It went that way! - I'll get that pesky rat this time!

Rat?

Rat?

Take this!

Hang in there, Ultraman Arc!

You little…! Come out from there!

Excuse me! Excuse me! What's going on?!

Oh, Rin! It's a rat! A rat!

A giant rat!

"Giant"?

That's right! Would you believe it?!

It's this big!

- Really? - It went in there!

But you say it ran into there?

Forget the details!

It's been causing so much trouble!

Trouble?

I know!

Hey, could SKIP do something about that rat?

What?!

But we deal with kaiju and aliens and stuff.

Wait, it must be a kaiju!

I mean, it's this big!

Right? So you'll do something about it, then.

Right?!

Rin!

Rin!

Right?!

Got it!

I'll head over now. See you!

What did Rin say?

There's a giant rat in the shopping district.

They need help investigating.

A giant rat… is it?

This wouldn't be the first time people got worked up over just a single rat.

"It all starts with trusting," was it?

That's right.

YouPi, go help.

Sure thing!

Here goes!

It's really a rat?

We can't be sure yet.

The bite marks closely resemble those of a rodent.

But to gnaw through a metal plate…

And it was clearly electrocuted.

It shouldn't be alive after that.

Whoa! And such a thick cable!

I told you! It's no ordinary rat!

And there's damage like this all over?

We keep fixing things, but then they get chewed up again!

The shopping district's had frequent blackouts!

And at my shop, the fridge shut off, and I lost a ton of food!

Don't worry.

- Leave it to us at SKIP! - Yeah!

- Thank you! - We appreciate it!

Have you heard of the bacteria that eat electricity?

A university lab discovered a new species of rat.

- This way! Over there. - It carried that bacteria inside of it.

So those rats eat electricity, too?

- Whoa! Here, too! - Look at this!

The science world was abuzz with talk about the possibility of electricity

replacing food as an energy source in the coming space age.

But the specimen they captured soon died in captivity.

- Thank you. - Go right ahead.

That species of rat made a nest in Hoshimoto City?

That's an interesting theory!

The damage's limited to electrical sources.

Yes.

There's plenty of food in the shopping district,

but nothing's been eaten.

If it's a rat, something's not right.

But it won't show itself.

Finding it will be difficult.

Yeah.

Considering the extent of the damage,

it must be moving around while staying hidden.

Moving around while staying hidden, huh?

- Hm? - Rin?

Is that Kawami Heavy Industries?

What is it?

The gutter the rat ran into leads to the sewer.

Kawami Heavy Industries uses lots of energy

and could be at the center of all the damage!

Got it.

I'll get you clearance, so keep at it.

I'm Natsume from SKIP.

I'm Hize.

I'm Hasegawa from the PR department. We've been briefed.

- Thank you for having us. - This way.

I was shocked to hear that

an unidentified creature's built a nest in our grounds.

It's still only a possibility.

Please look into it. We can't have something like that here.

Kawami Heavy Industries is a giant in power generator development.

I heard you recently developed a new power generation system.

Yes, it uses a mineral called daimode.

Daimode?

It's a rare mineral found in Africa.

It creates a huge amount of energy upon processing and irradiation with beta rays.

- Whoa! - So there's plenty of electricity here.

This is our research facility.

Let's split up. You two search above ground.

- Right. - Okay!

Could you show me the facility?

- Of course. - Rin.

It's a miniature net launcher. If you find the rat, use this to catch it.

Got it.

- Whenever you're ready. - Right this way.

Oh, wait! That's off-limits!

It's the heart of the daimode plant, so it has a lot of confidential tech.

We leave no stone unturned. That's our job.

- But… - Please.

Very well.

Seriously?!

This is bad! Run!

Hurry!

Take this!

Yes!

Oh no!

We found some data on the creature we think you're pursuing.

Its scientific name is Electricamus.

It's a new species of rodent and contains electric bacteria.

It went berserk after being subjected to electric shock during an experiment.

Whatever you do, don't apply an electrical stimulus to it.

What?!

What?! What's wrong?!

You have to tell me that stuff sooner!

Everyone, hurry this way! Quickly! Come on!

What's going on?! What is that?!

It's a long story,

but that's what's become of the rat we were after!

What do you mean?!

Don't ask me! It got huge after being shocked with electricity.

Maybe it fused with all that electricity on a cellular level.

A rat and electrons! It's Nezutron!

Ah!

That's…

the daimode generator cable!

Could it have ingested the daimode and be absorbing electricity?

If so, then this may be very bad!

- Huh? - Daimode is a very delicate mineral!

If you force it to produce too much energy, it could explode!

What?! What's the blast radius?!

I have no idea! It could be larger than this facility!

YouPi…

let's go!

- Right! - Go where?!

To shut it down before it explodes!

- It's too dangerous! - We have to do whatever we can!

Yuma, work with security to evacuate everyone! Go!

Let's go!

Everyone, this way!

That way!

Get back!

Sp-sp-sp-sp-spray!

Okay!

Rin!

- Hurry! - Right!

Oh, come on! We don't have time for this!

YouPi's on the job!

Hup!

Oof!

Okay!

Whoa! Where could it be?!

Huh?

YouPi, right here!

Roger!

Run! This way! Come on!

Mr. Hasegawa!

That's… Ultraman Arc!

I'm ready!

Accessing system!

Wriggle, wriggle, wriggle… Bingo!

Oh no! The generator's temperature is rising!

Don't worry!

- We've got this! - Right!

We're out of time!

Just a little longer…

We're gonna make it!

Here we go!

Buzz, buzz, buzz… Take this!

At this rate…!

Don't be scared!

Rin and the others will do something!

You can do it!

You can do it!

- You can do it! - You can do it!

Hang in there, Ultraman Arc!

- Hang in there! - You can do it!

- Go! Go! You've got it! - Yeah, hang in there!

You can do it!

Yuma, unleash your imagination!

Oh wow!

Hooray!

Hooray! Hooray!

- Yes! - Hooray!

Yay!

Amazing! That was amazing!

Apparently, Arc took care of the kaiju again.

According to Rin's report,

he wore something that resembled armor and hasn't been seen before.

Armor, you say?

He saved us again.

I wonder who he is.

Regardless, this will be valuable data.

Arc was so cool. Did you see that, Yuma?

Y-Yeah, I guess. But you two helped, too.

Who cares about who gets the credit? The damage was kept from spreading.

Rin!

Hey!

Rin!

Hey!

- Hey! - Rin!

I moved around a lot as a kid because of stuff with my parents.

I moved here to work at SKIP,

and of the many places I've lived, I like this town the best.

Then this is your home ground, Rin.

Yeah.

We have to preserve this kind of everyday life.

You're right.

Let's do everything we can.

Ms. Kazuko!

Well done!

Thank you! Thank you!

The future is in these hands

Let's hold hands and go dream

Today we boldly dance barefoot

(Sizzle, sizzle) Light a fire in your heart

Even if they laugh or put us down We'll definitely be shining our brightest

While dreams may burn in our hearts They won't ever burn up

Just like the sun They'll arrive every day

And illuminate us

I know love is in these hands

If we laugh out loud, it'll be all right

That's right Nothing's wrong

The future's in these hands

I want to hold hands and go dream

Sizzle, siz-siz-siz-siz-sizzle Sizzle, sizzle

I want to dream

Sizzle, siz-siz-siz-siz-sizzle Sizzle, sizzle

I want to dream

The Dinosaur Professor,

the children's hero, comes to Hoshimoto City.

What?! The professor was the chief's teacher?!

A giant fossil

and a mystery involving a lake will ignite a spark in the scientific heart!

Next time on Ultraman Arc,

"Ocean on the Mountain Ridge"

Time to run, Yuma!
