THE DEMON GOD HOWLS AT THE MOON

You can see it too The Star of Ultra

Far away Alone on Earth

Dedicating his life to defeating monsters

Any moment now He'll reach the burning town

With the echoing roar in his ear

He's returned He's returned

Ultraman

Featuring Demon God Monster Kodaigon.

Why have we never noticed it?

Because we're all free-living single guys.

I noticed a long time ago.

Oh, earning points in weird ways.

But Captain's never mentioned it himself.

Yes. I think it's the problem with being captain.

We should mention it.

Yeah.

Huh?

What's wrong? You're all relaxed.

It's like you're discussing horse racing.

Captain, actually, we were talking about your vacation.

My vacation?

Yes, sir. Ever since you came to MAT, you've never taken a single day off.

Vacation, huh? I gave that to the monster.

But, you should be giving that to your wife and child.

—Right, everyone? —That's right.

Captain, it's not fair.

Are you ganging up on me to take a break?

Yeah. Even if we have to tie you up.

Well, thank you.

Actually, my wife's been mentioning it.

We haven't visited her family in three years.

Where is she from?

Near Lake Hasune in Shinshu.

Ah. At night in February, a god crosses the frozen lake surface.

Supposedly you can hear a strange sound.

Oh, it's just the sound of ice cracking from the cold.

Every now and then my wife gets the urge to hear that sound.

—Captain, go on home! —Go on home!

Will you be all right without...

I see.

I guess I'll accept your offer.

I'll be off.

Listen.

I'm not taking a vacation because I want to.

The members forced me to take it.

—One night and we're coming back. —Sure, sure. I get it.

Oh, how boring.

Oh.

Normally, the captain of MAT shouldn't be resting, even for a single day.

I understand. Sorry.

How long has it been

Since we came to the city?

I remember my hometown

Captain Ibuki of MAT.

Heh. Acting like a quaint family man.

Here you go Ibuki—kun.

It's your first vacation in years. Sit back and relax.

Ah, thank you.

Oh, that's enough.

Here.

Here.

I should be taking more days off for Yoko and Minako,

but my work is my work.

Oh you don't have to explain it to me.

Me and the wife are proud that our daughter's husband

is the captain of MAT.

Maybe when Minako grows up, she'll marry a MAT member.

No, I don't want that.

It looks like having me in MAT is enough.

That's not it.

Not marrying someone in MAT means

nothing can get in my way of becoming a MAT member.

—Oh my. —But you're a girl.

But Oka's a girl, too.

Well, you should marry a normal man.

I'd certainly feel better.

No way. I'm for women's liberation.

—Oh my. What shall we do? —There, there.

Once the army, now MAT.

It's no surprise MAT'S become a girl's dream.

Mom, let's go already. We're going to miss seeing the god.

That's right.

—Yeah, we should probably head out soon. -Yes.

This year has gotten colder sooner, so the god crossing might be early.

That's right. Let's get going.

What about you?

Hm?

It's just the ice cracking, isn't it?

I'd rather get some sleep.

Boring. Dad, let's go together.

Now, now, Minako. Your father's tired. Let's go together.

Let's go.

Oh, it's quite cold.

Last year it was too warm, so the god never showed up.

We need it to show up this year.

We've got a nice moon tonight. I'm sure it'll show up.

Hey, it's slippery! Be careful!

Okay, don't slip.

Oh, come on. Hurry, this way. Here, it's dangerous.

Here. This should be the best spot.

Oof.

-Come on, Grandma. —Oh, thank you. Thank you.

What sort of god is the god of Hasune Shrine?

Oh? It's a god of war.

Minako, if you're going to become a MAT member,

you should pray for it to make you stronger.

She's already a handful as it is.

Hey!

If we mess up while Captain's gone, we'll never hear the end of it.

Should we check where Captain is?

He's on vacation. Let's leave him alone.

Shinshu's famous for sake. He's probably having some over a fish dinner.

Everyone, head out on patrol!

Yes, sir!

Huh?

Okay, let's go!

Okay, now's my chance.

If I can get their captain, MAT will fall apart!

MAT HQ. HQ.

This is MAT HQ.

This is Ibuki, is everyone all right?

Oh, Captain.

Everyone's out on patrol right now. There's nothing to report.

Captain, you're on vacation.

Don't worry so much about us.

Force of habit's a scary thing.

I feel more relaxed talking like this.

Dammit.

Even when drunk he's still keeping contact.

What an irritating captain.

It's late.

Mom, isn't it going to show up yet?

I'm getting sleepy.

Just a little longer. Come lean on me, okay?

All right.

The ice must have cracked.

Ah! That's a great footstep!

This year's crop will be fruitful for sure!

Yeah.

Is it over already?

That's right. People can't actually see gods.

—Right? —Oh.

Huh?

Mom, the god came out!

-What's that? —Huh?

Oh! Oh, what is that?!

The god's angry its crossing's a tourist attraction!

Run! Hey, run! Hurry and run!

Run! What are you waiting for?!

Huh?!

What is that?!

It looks like a real god.

-Come on, Minako! Quickly! —Okay!

—Oh, ow! -What's wrong?

This path is safe! Come this way!

Thank you.

Come on. Here.

Mister! Hurry and run! Quickly! Quickly!

They were just...

Where's Minako and Yoko?

W-Well...

Is it really safe here?

Of course. They say it's darkest under the candlestick.

This is no time for jokes!

Oh, I'm quite serious, Ibuki—san.

How do you know our name?

Oh!

An alien!

Minako!

MAT! MAT!

This is MAT. Oh, Captain Ibuki.

A monster's appeared at Lake Hasune! Move out immediately!

Captain! Captain!

What's wrong?!

—A monster at Lake Hasune! —Huh?!

Captain, as well as the rest of MAT, listen up.

I've taken possession of Mrs. Ibuki and Minako.

If you want them alive, disband MAT immediately.

Destroy your Undersea Headquarters!

For us Alien Grotes to get along with Earth,

MAT is an obstruction.

I'll give you 24 hours.

Their lives or MAT'S facilities.

Think it over.

That and how much damage the monster will do to the village.

Dammit!

RETURN OF ULTRAMAN

Captain!

The alien took advantage of my vacation.

I'm sorry.

No, we asked you to take it.

This is the alien's fault!

We hear the captain of MAT secretly came to see the god crossing!

Thanks to you, there's a monster! MAT, go home!

Go home! Go home!

It'll go away if you do!

But the captain's wife and daughter have been taken hostage by the alien!

That's your problem! It's not our business!

What?! Why you!

Minami!

I understand.

We'll do our best to meet your request.

Fine. We're trusting you, Captain.

Okay. Be sure you do.

Okay, let's go.

Let's go.

Dammit!

Captain!

What they said is right.

To save this village and MAT,

we don't have a choice.

Minako.

Don't be scared. Be sure to stay with me.

I'm not scared if I'm with you.

But where are we going?

To a land far, far away.

There's no point in crying.

We aliens know nothing of tears.

We were given a whole day. We've got half a day until night. Let's find them.

No.

Forget them.

Unless we get the monster in the lake, MAT won't have any standing with the locals.

About that. If we defeat the alien, the monster will disappear.

I'm sure the alien's controlling it.

Are you the captain of MAT?!

Stop that!

—This is your fault! —Stop it!

This is your fault! You bastard!

—Let's go! -Yes, sir!

Stop!

Let's fire!

Captain, your family will be in danger!

It doesn't matter!

Yoko, Minako, forgive me.

Ah, they've started fighting my monster.

Well, the lives of these two are mine now!

What's wrong?!

Well, the monster looks just like the image from Hasune Shrine.

The least we could do is pray to the shrine.

The monster looks like the image?

Spread out!

Well, it looks like they have no intention of bargaining.

Oh! Ultraman!

Captain! That must mean the two are safe!

Okay, let's help Ultraman.

Ultraman knows.

He recognizes that defeating the alien is everything.

Dammit!

—Okay! Let's go! —Right!

—Ah, thank goodness. -Thank goodness.

Oh, thank goodness. Are you all right?

Minako!

Oh! Dad!

-Were you all right? —Honey!

Captain, congratulations!

Yeah. Thank you.

See what happens when a busy man takes a break once in a while?

—Captain. —Oh!

It's a tiny monster!

Hey, what is this?

-It was lying down on the ice on the lake. —Huh?

Hmm.

So the god was being controlled by the monster.

Well, that settles that.

—Let's all thank the god. —Yeah.

Huh?

Oh. It faced the other way.

The god is embarrassed.

Let's get going.

Let's go.

”/ fell in love with someone I shouldn't '1' have. ”

As Alien Akane and Kishida struggle,

Ultraman's battle with Granadas continues.

Ultraman's in danger. Let's all watch again next week.
