Ultraman Taro!

Featuring Giant-Frog Monster Tonadaile.

-Get out! Just get out! —Please! Forgive me!

Stop. What are you doing?

Jiro! You cool off outside for a while!

Wetting your bed at your age! Aren't you ashamed?

Dad, please! Let me in!

You imbecile!

Don't be a baby!

Oh...

Stop! Stop it! It's not fair to poke me with a spear!

What's not fair?

Actually, if it touched a crybaby like you,

this treasured spear of our ancestors would rust!

But Dad, I'm seriously scared. A ghost light might come out again.

Coward! Blaming a ghost light for wetting your bed!

How pitiful. Are you really a descendant of a samurai?

Tsk!

Well, I can't blame him. Since Mom died, Dad's been by himself.

He loves me, that's why——

What are you mumbling for?

Be quiet!

Tsk. And he's gonna be 42 years old tomorrow. Jeez.

I know! I'll get Dad's favorite flower at the marsh for his birthday present.

This is for Dad, so...

Hm?

Huh? What's that?

Seeing how it's floating, maybe it's a ghost light.

It couldn't be.

But...

You saw a ghost light?

And you actually wrote down it was scary and eerie, eh?

To Zariba of All Territory members working in a super modern scientific facility,

Higashi's reaction of being scared of ghost lights was humorous to them.

—Oh! —Whoa!

-Yes, this is ZAT HQ. —Dammit!

Huh? A ghost light?

—What? —Huh?

Mister! I really saw a ghost light!

Hey, hey, this is ZAT. The monster Slayers, ZAT.

Oh, hey, hey!

Kid, listen, for such issues...

Call 426-6342, the child counseling hotline.

You know it well. You call it a lot, eh?

No, no!

But it was creepy! It would've haunted my dreams if I were a kid!

Yes, yes. Higashi—san, how old are you now?

What? Jeez!

Aren't we rowdy this morning.

Oh...

My friends, let me introduce a new member.

To replace Nishida who got transferred to Space Station V9,

a new member will join us from today.

—This is Ueno. —Nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you.

Sensei', it's about a ghost light.

Oh, I'll do it.

Hey, ghost lights are fires of phosphorus when it is exposed to air.

But people go missing whenever ghost lights appear.

What? People go missing? That's serious...

Try talking to a policeman again about the night the ghost light appeared.

And, uhh, ghost lights are simply burning phosphorus.

A blackout?

I—It's a ghost light!

Help me! Kotaro-san!

Saori—san?

I'm sorry! Sorry! It's this.

—How mean! —Chicken!

I've had enough of you two!

Well... We actually wanted to see how scary a ghost light was.

We now know lamps can look like ghost lights depending on the person.

I'm really sorry.

Wow, how pretty!

It's no use trying to flatter me now.

I know I'm just an old bag!

No, I mean those flowers, the cosmos.

Tulips!

What?

Well, I'm not very good at this, but I've got no choice when it's my duty.

—But if the hotline's sensei said so... -Hot! Hot!

—We have to check this out just in case. -Yes.

See? You're scared too, Dad.

—Don't be stupid! —You scared me.

—We need to make this clear... -Now, let's get going.

—But how troublesome this has become. —Oh, oh, wait!

Warm ups, you understand?

—Okay, watch your step. -Yes, yes.

Excuse me.

I know it was around 12 last night when Jiro wet his bed.

-So it should be soon. —I see.

—Umm, I... —Hm?

You gotta pee?

Yeah.

Go there...

No! No, no, no, no! You're in front of a policeman. How ill-mannered.

What? Yes! Yes, yes, yes, yes. Just think of it as your own yard.

I allow it. Go.

Go on.

Shh!

—I hear something. —What?

Oh... It's Kumagaya—san from up the street.

Oh, okay. Thank goodness.

Oh! Oh!

D-Don't stand! Don't stand! Let's watch. Just watch.

No, no! Don't come...

It's a monster!

Dad, hurry! Hurry!

—W—What're you doing? Hurry up! —I want to, but...

Nooo! Dad's caught in a capsule!

Dad!

Stay still. I'll go call the policeman... Wait, no.

I'll contact the office, so wait here.

Okay? Stay here.

Dad!

Dad!

I have never seen that before!

Lieutenant, this is where I saw the ghost light too.

But what a surprise. So the ghost light was a monster's eyes.

So that boy's dad was swallowed?

Yes, poor Jiro. It's very sad. He just lost his mother last year too.

I don't know how he's going to get by on his own. I'm so worried, yes.

But Mr. Policeman. I'm surprised you were safe.

Oh! Yes... Well, I fought very bravely, so...

Dad, today was your birthday...

I'll avenge you!

Kid... We'll avenge your dad.

What's the matter?

What are ya saying?

If you just got rid of the ghost light last night, this wouldn't have happened!

I went out of my way to call ZAT and you told me to call the child hotline!

That... was you, kid?

Everyone's chicken, so you all ran!

Hey! How is it, Kitajima?

Nothing seems out of place.

Shall we start then? There!

-H-Hey! -What's this?

-Fishing on duty? —No, uh...

Kitajima—san! The investigation isn't over yet!

You're stupid. You really believe the ghost lights are a monster's eyes?

Fishing like this is part of the investigation too, right?

As expected, no problems can be seen here.

What? That's not possible!

I'm negative, no, I'm positive I've seen it!

But we don't see even a trace of a body in the marsh.

No way... Jeez, all of you.

Oh, it's pulling! Hey, Ueno help!

—Calling won't help... -Ueno! Ueno!

—I can't move that easily! Jeez! —Hurry over!

—Idiot, what are you doing? —It's not that easy to get over there!

Ooh, I got one! Whoa!

It's Dad's boot!

Watch out! Hey!

Good job, Kitajima! Fish some more!

—More? —Fish more and more!

Poor thing... This boot is indeed Oba—san's.

This umbrella is Sato—san's.

The handbag was bought by Tomita—san's wife at a bargain.

And she was happy it was so cheap.

Who's fish was this?

This is... Oh, this belongs here.

Hm. It seems there's something lurking in this marsh for sure.

Call Pellumidar 2 from HQ!

We'll be arriving shortly.

Oh!

That's the rumored underground tank?

Me and Kitajima will ride the Pellumidar 2.

The rest, prepare for when the monster appears.

-Yes, sir. —Wait, please!

Please let me go.

I'm the first one to witness this case within ZAT.

If we were more careful, we could've saved Jiro—kun's father.

So please let me go.

Okay.

Higashi, go in my place.

Just...

Don't be rash.

Yes, sir!

ULTRAMAN TARO

Launch. I wish you guys luck.

Roger.

Launching.

We'll soon be right under the marsh.

Prepare rocket bullets!

Roger!

This is a monster's nest!

Yeah...

Kitajima—san, look!

Maybe it's stocking food for hibernation?

Dammit, what an unbelievable bastard.

—Let's launch rocket bullets at his head. —Okay!

All right! I'll fight you until the end!

That was a surprise.

Kitajima—san, there's no choice but to use a body attack to drive him out.

Yeah. All right.

Yes.

Here we go.

—Good, that bastard! —Dammit!

Hm? It's starting to shake. This is no earthquake!

Please get back! Prepare to attack!

Moriyama—kun, the Sky Whale.

—The rest, fight on ground! -Yes, sir!

Wait!

Crap! We can't attack like this!

Dammit...

Darn it! This is for my dad!

Hey!

—Wait! —Jiro—kun!

Don't go! Wait!

It's dangerous! Get back!

We're already above ground.

We succeeded in driving him out, but...

Oh, yeah! If we just reverse the drill.

Yeah, try that!

Yes.

Stupid bastard.

Oh! Kitajima—san!

Oh!

Jiro-kun!

Gimme back my dad!

—Hey! —Jiro—kun!

—Whoa! -Come back!

This is for my dad!

Darn it!

Help me! Whoa!

Jiro-kun! Don't interfere anymore. Leave the rest to me!

But my dad isn't coming back!

Do you want to die like this?

Your father is probably alive.

Say what? You're trying to trick me again.

Trust me!

I saw the monster's nest with my own eyes.

I'll save your father for you!

You could never do that!

I can do it. So you mustn't die.

Now, make me a promise. You'll run to a safe place.

And I'll save your father. Okay?

Thank you!

Dammit!

Jiro-kun! Hurry, this way!

—The policeman! —Hurry!

Yeah, it's me! It's me! Jiro—kun!

—Mr. Policeman! —Yeah!

-Take care of Jiro-kun! —Understood! All right.

—What are you doing? Run! —Hurry! Hey, c'mon!

Now, c'mon!

—You okay? —You okay? Good.

-Take care of him! -Now, let's go!

Dammit! You stupid bastard!

Jiro!

Today's your 42nd birthday, right? I hope you live long, Dad!

You imbecile! I'm not 42 yet!

I'm 41!

—Whoa! That was close! —You!

—Wait! You... -Over here! Here!

Darn you!

Look.

Oh, oh! They're at it again! Good! Good!

—Hup! —Not over yet!

Oh, ouch! Ow...

Just one year isn't that different!

You imbecile! I said I'm only 41!

Wait!

Wait, you!

You're not gonna catch me! Pfft!

Wait, darn you!

Pfft! Pfft!

Now, just you wait!

There!

Lieutenant!

Oh, you were alive!

Taro! Thank you!

I've brewed some coffee.

—Please. —Higashi!

—Hm? -Sign here.

Sure.

—Moriyama—kun. —Yes?

I heard you're good.

You were hiding those skills all this time.

Captain!

Hm?

"A skilled hawk hides its talons."

Every one of you, jeez.

Just being strong isn't everything.

You understand?

Skyscrapers begin to crumble one by one. A mysterious swarm of ants are present.

Giant ant monster Arindow attacks the city in daylight.

The Sky Whale flies. ZAT's in danger. Kotaro boldly stands against it alone.

Arindow closes in! Fight, Taro! Save the city of Tokyo!

Be sure to tune in to next week's Ultraman Taro,

”The day Tokyo crumbles. ”
