Original subtitles

The hotline isn't getting calls at all.

Isn't that supposed to be a good thing?

It is, but I'm just so bored.

Yuma, watch your wording!

Indeed, kaiju disasters have been on the decline recently.

But you never know what will happen.

Let's enjoy our moment of peace.

Oh! Chief, it's starting!

- Check it out, everyone! - H-Hold on!

These m-madeleines are…

b-based on Hoshimoto's s-symbol of a star.

That's the chief's daughter, Tsugumi.

What?!

They're very popular.

- Oh! - You're right!

She doesn't look anything like you!

Yeah. Fortunately.

That's hot!

This has been Tsugumi Ban,

this year's occupation experience reporter.

Are you okay?

Yes.

Thank you very much.

You've been chosen from 500 applicants to be our occupation experience reporter.

Is there anyone you'd like to interview?

W-Well… H-he's not really a person,

but I'd like to i-interview Ultraman Arc.

He's everyone's favorite hero, after all.

Yes.

- Wow. - Wow!

Your daughter's amazing, Chief!

Yeah…

People grow up and change so quickly.

This is all parents get to keep.

Hey! Look at that!

Kaiju spotted!

"By experiencing various occupations, junior and senior high school students

will discover Hoshimoto City's charms."

I see.

They recently started this program.

SKIP should take applicants, too!

Huh? We already did?

What?!

Unfortunately…

we didn't get a single applicant.

Huh?

- Well, it is a run-of-the-mill job. - YouPi!

Teens prefer flashy jobs with an audience, like being an influencer or entertainer,

or high-paying jobs, like being an athlete, doctor, or entrepreneur.

In other words, things that don't apply to SKIP.

That was blunt.

Yup.

I'm getting hungry. I'm gonna go get some lunch.

- I'll join you. - Uh… Er… I should get something, too!

That's unlike the chief. He always brings a packed lunch.

Hmm…

Hmm…

Oh!

Oh…

His wallet!

Ah!

Chief!

There you are! Your wallet!

Yuma! Shh! Shh!

W-What's wrong?

Let's do a real take.

Ready… Start.

These are the h-hardest hard-baked rice crackers in H-Hoshimoto.

I-I'll try one.

Here. Let's try breaking one.

Thank you. Here goes.

Wow, it smells so good! What do you think?

I-It smells very delicious.

And cut.

Could you take this?

Miss Akari, I'm sorry. I stammered.

Stammering's fine. It makes it more authentic.

But try using words that don't depict the product in a negative light.

Right. I'll do my best!

Okay.

Thank you very much!

We appreciate your support! Thank you!

Let's get going, then.

Let's eat.

I thought something was up. You always bring your lunch.

I heard Tsugumi was filming nearby, so I had to see it.

- Shouldn't you have said hello? - Not while she's working.

I didn't know you made your own lunch.

It's to save money. I'm trying.

Oh?

You've grown up.

People grow up and change so quickly.

Was that lunch box your daughter's?

Yeah.

This is all parents get to keep.

That girl… When she was small, she said she'd join SKIP.

Oh yeah?

What is that?

Look.

Oh! Is this you?

It's out of proportion, right?

I guess you were just that big of a presence in her life.

But it's not me anymore.

The one here…

is probably Ultraman Arc now.

Chief…

This is the SKIP Kaiju Hotline!

A kaiju's appeared at Mt. Ratsuno!

- What do we do?! - YouPi, fly over there now!

Roger!

I went with the whitebait.

Whitebait?

Rin!

Vroom, vroom, vroom!

Here I go!

Vroom!

Incoming video from You-bot!

Kaiju spotted! Kaiju spotted!

Isn't that Gomess?

It's definitely Gomess.

It's carnivorous.

It'll likely head to the foot of the mountain in search of food.

Contact the authorities.

Request a local evacuation advisory.

- Roger. - I'll contact the Global Defense Force.

If it's Gomess, citronella acid will be effective.

This one's bigger than usual, but we should be able to handle it.

Itezaki Ward, below Ratsuno Village, is being evacuated.

Let's head over and help them evacuate.

- Right! - Right!

- Wait! Wait a second! - What is it, You-bot?

The kaiju is climbing up the mountain! It's not heading to the foot!

What?!

You're right! Gomess is moving closer to the peak.

Why the peak?

It won't have anywhere to run. This is good.

Rin, how long until it reaches the peak?

Early tomorrow. Around five or six in the morning.

I'll advise that the GDF wait at the peak, too, to attack from above and below.

Even if it burrows on the way, we can avoid casualties.

Change the evacuation order of Itezaki Ward to an advisory.

Got it.

What is it, Yuma?

It's strange.

If Gomess is hungry, it should descend in search of prey.

If it's already full and wants to hibernate,

it should burrow where it is now.

So why…?

Maybe being underground so long messed up its sense of direction.

So it's just a coincidence?

Whether it's a coincidence or something else,

if Gomess keeps heading to the peak, it'll be cornered.

Even if it decides to descend, the GDF is waiting at the base.

You're right. How's that citronella acid coming?

The GDF should have enough in stock

to defeat any number of Gomesses that appear.

Yuma.

Let's focus on dealing with this Gomess. Preventing casualties is our top priority.

Just in case, let's monitor it in shifts.

- Right. - Okay!

Right.

Yuma.

- Has the situation changed? - No, it hasn't.

Roger that.

T-Today we I-looked at rice crackers.

Tomorrow, we'll be going to a crepe shop in Okami Town.

S-See you then.

The citronella acid attack will begin shortly.

Is it looking for something?

The citronella acid's not working?!

Is it resistant?! Or has it mutated?

That's not Gomess!

Impossible!

It flew?!

That's not possible! Gomess doesn't have the ability to fly.

Then what is this? Is it a robot made to look like Gomess?

We've got biological readings. You-bot, look into it.

Roger!

Whoa!

The kaiju's emitting an antigravity beam from its abdomen!

That's how it's floating in the air!

It's bound for southwest Hoshimoto!

Just how far does it intend to fly? Request a city-wide evacuation advisory!

Okay!

Its physical traits match those of Gomess exactly.

But it's not Gomess.

Is that possible?!

No.

But if we take space into consideration…

… there may be a kaiju that can mimic Gomess?

I'll ask the GDF to check their data.

Thank you for having us.

- Akari. - Yes?

Hey! Look at that!

My mic!

Start an emergency broadcast!

Emergency report from Okami Town!

Observe. A kaiju has been spotted flying over Okami Town.

The kaiju is descending.

Look out!

The flying kaiju has landed in Okami Town!

People in and around Okami Town should evacuate at once!

I repeat, people in and around Okami Town should evacuate at once!

The kaiju's landed in Okami Town!

Okami Town?!

Let's head over there!

It's dangerous. You need to evacuate.

But…

Everyone, please remain calm!

- The kaiju is headed southeast! - This way!

- Go to Hoshimoto Public Hall! - Remain calm!

- Please evacuate! - Head to Hoshimoto Public Hall!

This way! Remain calm!

- Please stay calm and evacuate! - Head to Hoshimoto Public Hall!

Tsugumi, look out!

Arc!

It's Arc!

Ultraman Arc has appeared in Okami Town!

Observe!

Arc is standing tall before the kaiju!

You can do it!

Go, Arc!

You can do it!

Go!

It reflected the beam?! What is that thing?!

I was right…

Multiple species of space creatures can completely mimic organisms

from other planets.

So that thing…

It could be a creature from another planet that's mimicking Gomess.

I should've realized that last night.

I'm sorry.

- This is my responsibility. - No.

As chief, it's my responsibility.

For now, let's focus on preventing any casualties.

Right.

- What? What? - What is that thing? Whoa!

Isn't it pretty?

That's an unknown object!

It could pose health risks, so please evacuate!

- Huh? - Please continue to evacuate!

Huh?

- Chief! - Huh?

Let me do this. Please.

The flying kaiju's destination was unknown.

As soon as it landed in Okami Town,

SKIP conducted an emergency evacuation of the city.

It's believed that if SKIP hadn't acted as quickly as it did,

the damage to Okami Town would have been much worse.

Arc is a great hero.

But it takes more than heroes to protect peace.

We all have to find out what we can do on our own,

and then work together.

What I can do…

and what you can do…

are probably different.

But I believe that finding out what those things are

will lead to peace.

Supekkio, the space life form.

It's never been observed on Earth.

What's it doing here?

It seems it mainly feeds on glass and silicate.

There's a large glass factory just outside of Okami Town.

That aligns with the kaiju's path.

I'll meet up with the GDF and try to get a sample.

Please do.

- I'll help. - Thank you.

- Go ahead. - Right.

Dad.

Today…

you didn't stammer once.

You were watching.

Miss Ban, we're leaving!

Okay!

I've gotta go.

Right.

It shouldn't be taken for granted

The fact that I'm here Is because you were, too

What's the name of that constellation?

I think it's Orion

I looked up at the same sky I always do

I miss the casual conversations we had

I hope you feel the same

Even if we're hurt at times

We have something to protect

If you're the sun

I'll be the moon

Even when it's cloudy And you can't see them

Just knowing they're there Can make us kinder

Aoi, who dreams of being a novelist, finds a mysterious red sphere.

It turns into Dori, a small kaiju that grants her wishes one after another.

But when danger closes in on Dori, Aoi cries out a terrible wish.

Next time on Ultraman Arc,

"The Dream Bird"

Time to run, Yuma!
