DESTROY ALL MONSTERS (KAIJU SOUSHINGEKl)

The year is 1999.

The U.N.S.C. Has established an exploratory base on the surface of the moon.

At the Rocket Departure Center on earth...

... lunar-bound spacecraft are launched on a daily basis.

Moonlight SY-3...

Standby for takeoff!

10... 9... 8... 7... 6...

5... 4... 3... 2... 1... 0...!

An underwater research center was set up...

... at Ogasawara Island, allowing scientists to study marine life in its natural surroundings.

Many new forms of fish are being artificially evolved here.

While on the island, all of the world's monsters...

... have been collected and confined, hence the name, Monsterland.

Among them are, Godzilla...

Rodan...

As well as, Angilas...

... Mothra and Gorosaurus, are the island's main inhabitants.

In the past, all of these monsters brought terrible destruction upon humanity.

Special electronic devices guard each of the monsters...

... according to its own characteristics.

Rodan can fly within a limited boundary between land and water...

... before being stopped by the invisible magnetic force screens that surround the island.

Food is always available here...

... and the monsters are free to eat as much as they can catch.

The entire island is automatically controlled...

... with a command center located deep beneath the earth.

Also, check CHX.

Hey, we finally made it.

How are you?

I hope you find our monsters to your liking.

Yes, very much!

Well, you can relax here.

You'll be my research assistant.

Okay!

Our mission on this island is to make a complete study of the monsters living here.

Right!

Kyoko Manabe, you have a phone call.

Please report to the nearest station.

Hello!

Katsuo! Where are you?

I'm at the lunar control station.

Oh, my!

I just landed a little while ago.

Really?

I was worried about you being on Monsterland.

Well, look at you!

I told you I would be alright!

Yeah, I know I shouldn't worry about you.

I'm more concerned about Godzilla and the others!

Well!

The truth is, I like the monsters we have there!

Really?

Just kidding...

But you never know out there.

Can you tell Dr. Yoshida that we've spoken?

The doctor is attending a meeting in Tokyo.

Well, can you let him...

Hello...? Hello...?

What's wrong?

Hello! Hello!

All stations, all stations, respond!

All stations, what's going on?!

What's the matter?

We've lost all power!

What? Is it affecting all of our backups as well?

It's mind-boggling!

Alright, let's find the source of this alarm!

How is the alarm system working?!

It's out!

What's this?

I don't understand.

Professor!

It's gas!

All communications were cut off from Monsterland.

In Tokyo, the United Nations Scientific Committee is meeting with Dr. Yoshida.

An emergency session was convened to restore all communications with the island.

Doctor, we're receiving Ogasawara Island on monitor six.

Good... Switch to the main screen.

Yes, sir!

It's no good! We've lost the signal again!

Try it once more.

No, keep trying it until you get through.

Someone could be jamming us on purpose!

Someone could be jamming us...

But who would do something like this?

Doctor, it's back!

This is Monsterland? It has changed...

Could it be a new volcanic eruption?

No, enlarge the picture a little more.

Yes, sir.

What's happening? - What?!

Such terrible destruction!

I will try to arrange for my country's help.

This is a broadcast from Moscow!

We have an emergency...!

I repeat, we have an emergency!

Rodan is approaching the border of Moscow!

Rodan?

It's on course to destroy the city of Moscow!

Russian leaders have summoned their defense forces!

There's no doubt that this is the same Rodan from Monsterland, at Ogasawara Island.

Rodan in Moscow? What's it doing there?

This is Paris!

This is Paris reporting!

A subterranean monster has broken thorough the streets of the city!

Paris's most famous landmark, the Arc de Triumph is directly in its path!

Ah! It's destroying it! It's destroying the Arc!

There is no doubt that this monster will destroy Paris just as easily!

Monsters are attacking major cities all over the world.

Rodan is in Moscow, Mothra in Peking...

Manda is in London, and Baragon is in Paris.

This news just in...

Godzilla is attacking New York.

I repeat, Godzilla is attacking New York.

Doctor, what has the committee come up with?

How did the monsters escape?

Do you think it's sabotage?

None of us are in a position to supply those answers.

At this time, it's impossible to tell what's behind all of this.

What do you think, Dr. Yoshida?

All I can tell you is, 20 years ago we started confining monsters to the island.

After we had captured all of the monsters, we sealed it off 10 years ago as a precaution.

People, people!

We don't know what happened.

For the moment, you must not create a panic.

Your cooperation in this is vital for us.

Dr. Yoshida, if our country is so close to the island, why wasn't Tokyo attacked?

We were wondering about that ourselves.

We do not wish to be rude...

...but that's all we have.

Moonlight SY-3!

Moonlight SY-3!

This is Moonlight SY-3. Go ahead!

Turn your ship around.

What's gone wrong?

Return to base, and I'll tell you then.

Hey!

See that?

Yes!

We should try to follow it.

But we were ordered back.

This is more important. It's our first contact with a UFO.

This could be dangerous, Katsuo.

What was that?

Moonlight SY-3!

Moonlight SY-3, respond!

Damn, let's go.

But this is the first time they've ever done that!

We've only just left the earth.

Do they think we can just come back to help them?

They didn't ask for our help.

Then why are we going back?

They only wanted you to come home.

I'm not sure if the automatic landing system is working...

...so use your monitors to land on Monsterland. I'm not sure what you'll find there.

Your ship is equipped to handle anything you might need to finish your mission.

However, you should arm yourselves.

What?

Arm ourselves?

Yes. You'll be on your own there.

Roger.

We've got a signal!

Our ship is being guided!

Good... Roger.

We're landing, secure controls!

Landing engines, okay!

Prepare to land!

This is Moonlight SY-3.

We've arrived at the control center.

Good. The center has been completely cut off.

Your job is to see if anything has happened.

We can't make any plans until we know what's wrong.

I understand.

Acid and gas gauges are reading normal.

Alright, let's go.

Be careful! - Okay!

Hey! Look there!

That's not right... How could this be happening?

Welcome back...

Kyoko! Doctor!

It's been a while.

What's the matter with you?

You didn't have to come.

What is going on here? Doctor!

Well, well... You don't have to shout.

No one is in danger. Everything will be alright.

What I need from you is your cooperation.

Cooperation?

What do you mean by cooperation?

Don't you know what the monsters are doing out there?

Of course...

We're using remote control to guide them.

Remote control?

See for yourself.

This is Mothra in Peking right now...

Here is Godzilla...

And here is Rodan...

In the end, we'll control them whenever we want.

Well, I'm sure you want to meet the inventor.

Come this way.

This way...

I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

Everyone, she's here to answer your questions.

We are not here as your enemies.

With everyone's cooperation...

...we can turn the earth into a new and advanced civilization.

What if the earth doesn't want to cooperate? What will you do to us then?!

Katsuo...

Why don't you listen to what she's saying?

Kyoko!

Your new civilization is already under way.

Don't sacrifice yourselves for what you cannot stop.

What?

What country are you from?

Kiraku...

Kiraku?

She's not from earth.

You see, there are several small planets between Jupiter and Mars.

Her home is one of them.

You believe what she's telling you?

I'm ready to accept her story...

...as the truth because of her scientific ability.

The monster remote control unit she built, is the perfect example.

She's certainly not from our world. I believe she is from out there.

Ogata! Get away!

Well, are you satisfied?

Her barrier is indestructible.

What are you doing?!

You may have changed, but where are the others?

Everyone is fine. They'll be coming out shortly.

Are you holding them prisoner?

Don't you understand? It's pointless to struggle.

Alright, I understand.

But you two are going to come back with us.

Don't try it. You're going with us.

Move it!

Hey! It's gas! Hurry!

Halt! Halt!

Hurry!

Captain!

Hurry! Hurry!

Captain! Come on!

Captain!

We have masks!

Kyoko!

Get him out of here!

Kyoko! Kyoko!

Captain! Captain!

Let's go!

Let's go!

Captain! Captain!

Captain!

Alright! Let's go!

Were you brainwashed? Were you brainwashed by them?

We're wasting our time. He won't tell us anything.

How about this, Wataru...

If you help us out, we'll do what we can to return you to normal.

Do you understand?

In case you didn't know...

...our world is approaching the brink of destruction!

Our defense forces have found the island to be deserted.

Where is their new base of operation?

I beg of you...

If you help us locate their base...

...they'll go easier on you in the courts.

Do you think that alien woman cares about you?

What's the matter?

Doctor!

Don't touch him!

You!

You realize you're being used by the people of Kiraku?

You'll understand, Dr. Yamada. You'll see the truth.

You're coming with us!

Are you all heartless now?!

Be quiet!

To keep you in control, I think we'll put these on you.

The police are coming!

Let's retreat.

Hey! Fall back!

Stop!

Scalpel.

Do you know if he was hard of hearing?

No.

Well, it's not a hearing aid.

I don't understand the technology.

It appears to be some kind of new metal.

I'd say it was some kind of internal transmitter and receiver.

But how did they get this into his body?

Doctor, could they control the monsters this way?

You mean like a remote control?

Do you think they're controlling the others this way, too?

Yes...

That's why he wouldn't reveal their base.

He was under their control!

We don't know where their base is.

If we did, we could jam their transmissions.

Let me take my team to search for their base!

That's an unusual wavelength... Find out the source of that transmission!

Roger!

I've traced it to the mountains of Japan!

Look, I don't know what it is...

...and I don't have time to get it examined. Did you buy it from someone?

I found it on my land!

Officer! Officer!

A spaceship is coming this way!

Huh? - Over there!

Where is it?

There it is!

Huh? What is it?

R... Rodan!

That's not it! Give me!

There it is!

That's Moonlight SY-3!

My son works on the lunar colony.

So that's it?

I hope he's doing well!

What's going on?

Oh, we're tracing an unusual transmission.

Excuse me, officer. - Sure!

What's that?

Is that a radar?

It has been discovered by the U.N.S.C. That these objects...

...are in fact relay stations used for the remote control.

The enemy used this method on the monsters to throw the entire world into a panic.

Others were found in Dover...

In church steeples in Spain...

One was discovered in the Alps, under sheets of ice.

In Guam, one was found in a coconut tree.

Now, we will ask Dr. Yoshida to explain how it works.

This device can send and receive signals at great distances.

We've estimated that the strength of this broadcast can reach about 2000 kilometers.

Therefore, in order to control the monsters...

... a number of these devices had to be set up all over the world.

Now, the Kiraku have started their plans by taking over Monsterland...

...and I'm afraid they also control the scientists.

Their actions may result in our destruction, so please be careful if you see them.

The Monsterland scientists are, Minoru Kudo, age 35...

Tetsuo Ise, age 30...

Shin Kuroi, age 28...

And Kyoko Manabe, age 23...

Those were the Japanese scientists.

There is also Michael Dawson, age 32...

And Elmer Hughes, age 29...

You're okay, thank you.

Just a moment, we need to examine your neck.

Sorry to disturb you.

You're fine, thank you.

Excuse me.

You're fine, thank you.

Rodan is flying over districts 7 and 8.

All residents must take shelter immediately.

Finally, one of them is here. - Yes.

In which district would it be best to attack?

The Jincho district...

There is another incident!

Godzilla has emerged in the first district!

What?

Manda! - Manda is here!

Prepare to attack! Prepare to attack!

Alright! Launch the attack!

It wouldn't have surprised me if Tokyo was attacked by only one monster...

...but Rodan, Godzilla and Manda all at once?

You're right...

They were in New York, London and Moscow. What brought the monsters here?

Emergency bulletin! Emergency bulletin! The giant caterpillar Mothra has arrived!

Hello.

The destruction is horrible.

I saw what they did to Tokyo. There were four monsters.

We think they left the Tokyo area and are headed for the Izu Springs.

Izu?

The Izu hot springs have all dried up.

The same thing happened at Monsterland.

Do you think there's a connection?

Baragon is presently in this area.

Baragon?

First, cities around the world were destroyed...

...while Tokyo was left untouched.

That was to draw our attention away from Japan...

...so they could build their base.

I see... In order to destroy it, we'll have to find it.

Yes...

You are to travel to Izu in your spaceship and go underground at this point here.

If you find their base, destroy it, before they have a chance to destroy us.

Ah, Commander... How are you doing?

I'm fine.

Commander...

It can't be... Kyoko!

You!

Where can we speak in private?

No, I've come to speak to everyone here.

You're wasting your time! We won't let them take over our minds!

You don't have to stay if you don't want to listen.

I'm here to answer everyone's questions.

Where is your base located?

Our stronghold is in Izu.

What are they planning in Izu?

The Kiraku are going to take over the earth.

Do the Kiraku want to control us like you?

Yes...

Once you accept the Kiraku's offer, and everyone is placed under their control...

...they will take control of all the monsters and return them to Ogasawara Island.

So the Kiraku will let the monsters continue to run rampant until then?!

What offer is that? It's blackmail!

I came to speak to everyone. You should just be quiet.

You!

What are you doing?!

Don't try to struggle! I'm saving you from their control!

Don't struggle!

Doctor!

This is how they controlled her.

This is how they controlled Dr. Otani and all of the people and monsters at Monsterland!

Doctor!

These are new devices.

They should be analyzed.

Kyoko! Kyoko! Hang in there!

Kyoko!

You're not seeing things clearly, it's me!

You're free from their control now!

It's okay, it's okay!

Miss Manabe, tell us...

Do you know the location of he Kiraku's secret base?

The Kiraku?

Yes...

Where is the Kiraku base in Izu?

I...

I...

I don't know where!

It's probably an effect of the mind control.

Well then...

Prepare to invade the forest!

The 14th division is ready!

Alright...

Prepare to fire.

Preparing to fire!

Here we go everyone!

Yes, sir!

SY-3 is starting to land!

Alright!

We have confirmation of Godzilla!

Keep going!

Emergency power!

Emergency power!

Alright!

Open fire!

Open fire!

Hey, what's wrong?

We don't have any traction!

Angilas! It's Angilas!

What...? Damn...

All forces, retreat!

All forces, retreat!

Damn!

Hey, let's go home.

This stinks...

We're not done yet.

Hey!

Should we follow it?

Alright!

It's heading for Mount Fuji!

It must have something to do with the Kiraku base.

Perform a scan of the entire area!

Yes, sir!

Enemy target moving in, it's Rodan!

Captain, if we can't outrun it, should we fight?

We can't beat it like this. Let's see if it can keep up with us.

Prepare the main engines!

Main engines, on!

Increase auxiliary rockets!

Well, well...

Rodan couldn't keep up with us.

We would have found their base if it didn't interrupt us!

Yes, but we now have an idea of its location.

We'll search the entire range of Mt. Fuji, until we find their hidden base!

Forward!

All units, forward!

All units, forward!

Godzilla!

Scatter! Get back!

This way!

Hey, what's wrong? Hang in there!

Are you okay?

I'm okay.

Let's go.

Is it a cave?

Yes, I think so.

Damn!

I can't open it.

The Kiraku are probably waiting for us...

...but that's the only way to go.

Alright...

Alright, let's blast it! - Don't! It's useless.

Welcome... We meet again, Captain.

This is good... You have brought Major Tada of your army with you.

Huh?

Today, we will show you how inferior your forces are against us.

Inferior?

So, this is it!

We did it!

There they are!

Yes. Now you know that the saucer you were following...

... was one of our spaceships.

Do you finally accept that we are from outer space?

Well then, is there something important you wish to tell us?

A proclamation...

Proclamation?!

Major Tada, please hear this.

The earth does not belong to you humans.

With Mount Fuji as our stronghold...

...we Kiraku are vowing to make this world ours.

Anyone who opposes our invasion will die. Do you understand?

What?!

Damn!

Be careful!

Right.

A new control center has been established on Ogasawara Island.

Scientists trying to break the remote control's key system and use it to stop the monsters.

That did it!

The remote control is on the moon!

Hope... There is finally hope!

Control to SY-3!

You are not to rest until your mission is completed.

I understand.

Check the map again.

Right!

Pay attention...

Take heading 41.4 degrees south...

... until you reach the Caseanic crater.

They'll probably be using radar, so maintain a low altitude.

Okay, we're leaving.

Attention crew, we will fly low for 40 kilometers...

We will then turn, southwest...

... and travel along the 300 kilometer ridge.

We will turn north for a brief period...

...and arrive at the Caseanic Crater.

Roger!

Target bearing 40 degrees. It seems to be a saucer.

We found it!

We haven't found anything but a saucer.

What should we do?

Has it seen us yet?

Either way, weren't we ordered to stay until our mission was completed?

Alright, genius!

We're going in whether they saw us or not!

Final destination is just ahead!

Stop!

Stop!

Prepare to land!

Alright, let's go! Land!

Landing!

Stop! - Stop!

Ground car, ready!

Ground car, ready!

Cut off the fuel!

The fuel is off!

Coolers, on!

Coolers, on!

There's no reaction!

Hurry!

The temperature gauge is reaching critical!

Critical?!

Yes!

Captain!

It's no good! It's so hot, the tanks are bound to explode!

We'd better take off!

It's too late now... Ground car, let's go!

Yes, sir!

Stop!

Stopping!

Ready the lasers!

Lasers ready to fire!

Fire!

Commander!

The SY-3 assault team has engaged the enemy.

Really? Contact the lunar colony and get me a report.

We don't have anything to report yet!

As soon as we hear something, we'll call you.

Yes? Lunar colony, go ahead.

Hang it up!

I'm worried, we haven't heard from them yet.

For all we know, their ship could have gone up in flames!

We may as well put the colony on alert.

Yes, sir.

Let's go. - Yes, sir!

Okada, Deshika, Arima, come with me. - Yes, sir!

The rest of you stay here. - Yes, sir!

Look!

Incredible!

Alright...

Arima, Deshika, check out that section.

Make sure the equipment is destroyed!

Yes, sir!

It's amazing that we did so much damage to it.

They made it look strong, but it had weaknesses.

Look!

Over there!

They're the Kiraku...

Huh?

I guess they can only exist in warm climates.

When we broke through the barrier, they must have returned to their true form.

Are they dead?

No... I'm sure of it.

Captain! Captain!

Stay here! - Yes, sir!

We thought this might be important.

It's still working...

Alright, remove it. We'll take it back to earth.

Yes, sir!

Come in! Come in!

Anything?

All lines are out.

No word yet, or any signal either.

Then did they fail?

Well, did they fail?

No good!

Alright, if we can't cut it off, we'll burn through it!

What's the matter?

We'll need one of the lasers.

Right!

Run the line!

Okay. Let's open it. - Right!

Screwdriver!

Okay!

Let's go!

Hurry!

It's been too long since we've seen or heard from them.

It looks as though they've failed in their mission.

Okay, turn on the power!

What's wrong?

It's no good! The cable can't take it!

I don't care! Switch the power back on!

But the cable can't take it!

We're not returning without this! Switch it on!

Right!

They did it!

They've shut down the system! Alright, let's hurry!

We might be able to control the monsters!

Yes, sir!

Hurry! Let's get this thing back to earth!

Doctor, are they still alive?

Yes, they're still alive...

...but it would take several thousand degrees to revive them.

They're living metal, right?

Yes.

I see... That's why they set up their base near a volcano.

It's clear that the Kiraku...

...are ahead of us in certain areas of science.

It must have taken them thousands of years.

Thousands of years?! Don't they die?

No, the cold only interrupts their life.

Eternal life is one of the areas they've perfected.

Eternal life?

Yes.

I see... So, if the Kiraku can only live in high temperatures...

We can then use the cold to defeat them.

It's the only chance we have.

Major, get to work.

Yes.

It's Godzilla!

Oh, no!

Hello! - Doctor! You did it! - Yes!

We owe you a great deal!

Doctor! Don't celebrate! Godzilla has just appeared!

What?! Is this true?

Yes!

Godzilla is in Tokyo? - Yes!

Well, well...

Don't let it bother you. Godzilla is under our control now.

Huh?

It strayed into Japan.

Then, doctor...!

The monsters are under our control now!

It's mankind's turn this time!

At last we can challenge the Kiraku...

...with the same weapons they used against us!

The beautiful weather at Mt. Fuji is in stark contrast...

... to the tension in the air over the upcoming battle.

The silent forest seems to be waiting for...

... the monster's charge on the Kiraku's hidden base.

The defense force is stationed around the area.

No monsters are in sight yet.

The monsters will be led by Godzilla, Rodan and Angilas, but I don't see them yet.

I don't... Ah, I see one!

Could it be one of the leaders of the group, like Godzilla?

No, it's Minya...! Minya is the first to arrive!

However, following behind it is the monster, Godzilla!

Now, I see Mothra!

Godzilla is leading the pack, with Mothra close behind!

Next is Angilas...!

Angilas is leading a pack of monsters to my left. More are coming out!

Angilas is leading Manda, Baragon and Gorosaurus.

Kumonga has appeared!

It looks like all of the monsters controlled by the Kiraku have been brought here.

I can see Rodan...!

It's flying from the south and is circling around both groups of monsters.

It is landing behind Godzilla and Mothra.

It appears that Godzilla's group will lead the attack.

Godzilla itself will lead them.

There's been no reaction from the Kiraku, as to what is transpiring before them so far.

As Godzilla prepares the other monsters to attack, there seems to be little doubt as to who will win.

There's something strange happening above them!

What?

King Ghidorah!

That's not an earth monster. They brought it!

The controls aren't set for it. What should we do?

Set the controls for Godzilla and the others to attack it!

King Ghidorah is a space monster.

Your controls on earth will not affect it.

I have other business, but feel free to surrender at anytime.

Damn!

King Ghidorah! It's the space monster, King Ghidorah!

It is preparing to fight the earth monsters!

Are Godzilla and the others a match for it?

King Ghidorah is moving in to attack!

The battle is fierce!

Listen as the monsters struggle for victory!

A fire monster has joined in the battle!

Afire monster? Does such a thing exist?

It must be from space, living in such flames!

It's coming! It's heading straight for us!

Alright, get out!

A signal from the Kiraku!

Dr. Yoshida and his scientists have just met our Fire Dragon.

Your best efforts will not be able to destroy it.

What do we do? Should we attack?

Our Fire Dragon will burn Tokyo down in two or three hours.

Godzilla?

It's Godzilla!

It must have found the entrance to the Kiraku base!

The monster will keep going!

It's attacking the Kiraku base! It doesn�t need the machine!

Animals know who their natural enemies are.

It must consider the Kiraku as one!

We can't lose... We can't lose!

We did it!

Don't celebrate yet...

We still have to defeat the Fire Dragon.

Alright...! I'll take SY-3 to get rid of it!

Katsuo!

Approaching from fifteen degrees, it's the Fire Dragon!

Good. Ready all available missiles!

Fire!

No good! There's no response to the circuit!

They won't fire!

Okay, one more try.

Yes, sir!

Use the rear missiles when it gets behind us. Slow us down...

Right!

Ready...

Fire!

Alright, let's shake it off!

Look!

It's going down!

I've got it! The Fire Dragon is one of their saucers!

We can try the missiles. Should I fire? Should I...?

Alright...

Fire!

We did it!

Well done!
