Daiei Co. Ltd. Presents

SPACE MONSTER GAMERA (SUPER MONSTER)

There are 200 Billion stars present in the Milky Way Galaxy. Our sun and its nine planets consist of just one solar system within the galaxy.

There are billions of other such systems within the Milky Way galaxy, many greater than our own solar system.

But, compared to the enormous size of the Universe itself, even a galaxy is but a tiny pinpoint of light.

In our vast Universe there are billions of other such galaxies that are just as big if not bigger than our own.

The Universe is limitless in size, and mankind is not the only creature in it that wages war against itself...

There are others who make war throughout the Universe...

From the farthest reaches of space comes a space ship bent on murder and destruction. It is the pirate space ship, Zanon.

Space ship Zanon's mission is to take the Earth under its control.

Good morning!

Is everyone doing all right?

Here you go sir...

That's all for today. Good bye! - Good Bye!

And don't forget to do your homework. Good bye!

Kilara, is something wrong?

Kilara, what's happened? - I feel that something bad is about to happen. Marsha, do you feel anything?

No. - And you, Mitan? - I don't sense anything either...

I see, maybe it's just me...

People of the Earth, I know that there are space women hiding among you.

He's discovered our hiding place... Quick, we must transform again before he finds us...

He's discovered our hiding place... Quick, we must transform again before he finds us... - You are powerless against us. Any plans you may have to defeat us are bound to fail.

But why? - Just do it. Right. - You are powerless against us. Any plans you may have to defeat us are bound to fail.

Do not try to defeat us, resistence is useless. We have a great army of space monsters at our disposal.

We intend to take over your planet. Surrender peacefully and no harm will come to you or your planet. Resist and you will be destroyed.

We're really in for it this time... We have to find some way to stop them...

But we don't have any weapons... - Even so, we have to stop them...

That's right. We have no choice but but to fight. We must find a way...

Space ship Zanon, I have arrived. I am awaiting your orders.

Giruge!! You are to eliminate anyone and anything that may hinder our efforts here. - Right. Proceeding with your orders, Captain.

- Hey sister! You want to go out some time? - What about drinks. - For drinks?

Thanks for the offer!

Hold on now. What's happened to you!?

Right. You played very well!

Your teacher will be very pleased. Don't you think? - Yes.

Hey, Hiroshi! What are you you guys looking at!?

Your favorite monster, Gamera, is in this comic book... - Really!

Someone left this turtle alone in Kamiari park. This turtle hops around like a man!

Ha ha ha, spinning round and around... It's just like Gamera!

That's really super! - Yes, but I still say that Muscle Man is my favorite.

Let me see! - Let me see!

Muscle man. We'll have to fight! We'll discover who the real champion is...

See? You know what I think, we should go to Kamiari park and find this policeman with the turtle.

Do you think he's really there? - Of course, my grandmother has seen him!

Eh!? That's great!

There it is, just like you said... - See! - I don't believe it!

Huh! He really is just like in your book.

He even has a turtle! - Really?

Good afternoon! - Huh? You kids again? I'm not the policeman from your comic books you know...

But, you've even got a turtle! - Someone left it here. So I'm keeping it until they get back.

I sure hope they come back Quick. I don't know how to take care of him. He looks homesick if you ask me!

Oh really? - You've been reading too much of those comics. You know very well that those stories are just plain fiction...

Well that stinks...

Now you kids best run along home... or I'll have you arrested!

I really had you scared that time!

Hi, how are you doing today?

Hey there, do you like talking to them?

Would you like to have one? They're really not expensive at all...

But I don't have any money for a turtle. - It's okay. I'll give you one.

What? Really!? - Sure. Here you go. Thank you, but I'd rather have that one!

So what's different about that one? - This turtle and I, we can talk to each other.

But no one can here us... just you and me. We understand each other. Isn't that right?

I know you can...

Keiichi, hurry on home now, okay? - Huh, what's wrong sister?

I think something bad might be about to happen. - How can you know that?

I guess I can just tell when things like that are about to happen. - Wow, you sound like you might be a real space woman!

And maybe I am... - Okay, thank you very much! Be careful going home!

Unknown to most, the enemy from space was about to cause a series of great disasters...

Worried about the strange eruptions, the government Quickly assmebled a research partyto investigate them...

The mystery continues to baffle the scientific community. After the destruction of the research party, the self defense force is mobilized to defend the country.

Keiichi, I really wish you'd spend some time on your homework instead of playing that organ. - Yes, but I was just playing a song for my new turtle!

See? I was playing the Gamera March that I wrote for him...

That silliness again? - It's not. He likes it when I sing to him. I can't imagine how lonely it must be... being a turtle with no one to talk to...

Keiichi, does he really understand you? - Of course he does. Isn't that right?

Keiichi, don't you think that he may be getting sad in the small tank. He'd probably be much happier if he were outside, where he could play in the rivers and streams.

You really think so? - Animals aren't meant to be kept in such small places. I'm sure he'd be much happier...

I'm still not so sure... - Well, since he understands you, why don't you ask him?

Do I have to? - Yes, you have to.

Would you be happier if you were living outside?

So?? - He said, "Yes." Well then, why don't you take him down to the river where you and your dad fish.

I sure am going to miss you. Don't forget to think about me every once and a while when you get the chance...

Well...

Good bye...

The Super-Sonic Monster: Gaos

The super-sonic monster, Gaos, proved too much for the defense force to handle. Unchallenged, Gaos made a path of destruction towards Nagoya.

Hey, what's that thing!?

Where is she?

It looks like I'm going to be stuck here forever. But wait!

I must not be getting enough sleep. I'm starting to imagine things...

This is Giruge, this is Giruge. I have an urgent report...

Go ahead, Giruge. - One of the space women has just revealed herself. You can use your radar to track her.

We must destroy her.

Sorry I'm late!

Marsha, hurry out of the car!

Hurry and turn back to an Earth woman. - Right!

I'm sorry!

We have to be careful when we transform from now on, else we will give away our position. Their radar can track us as long as we are transformed into space women... I don't want any of us killed.

That will restrict us... - That's right, but we don't have a choice...

That's right. From now on, unless it is absolutely necessary, we must keep ourselves disguised as Earth women...

- Right!

Gaos is in Nagoya, and there is nothing we can do to stop it. Unless we can figure out something to do, the city will be destroyed...

We must find a solution fast. - Yes, we have to.

What's that? Why are they closed?

Good afternoon! - Oh, it's you!

I didn't know you had company... - Oh it's okay. Ah, allow me to introduce my friend, Keiichi...

- Hello! - Hello...

What's the matter, you look sad?

I came here to give you an apology... - An apology?

My mother told me that my turtle must be very unhappy living in cage... - I see...

So... I let him go in the river. Are you mad at me?

You did just fine Keiichi. I'm sure that your turtle is very happy now that he's free to swim in the river...

I know he is... - Well, I'm very happy to hear that.

But me... - What is it?

Do you play the organ too!? - Yes, sometimes.

Well, do you mind if I play the Gamera March I wrote on your organ? - No, how does it go?

I think you'll like it.

Sister, what I'd like more than anything is for my turtle to be able to fight Gaos... - Your turtle against the monster Gaos?

You see, if he could turn into Gamera, then he'd be able to fight and win... - Gamera?

Right. Now Gamera is the only one strong enough to protect the Earth...

I know that the odds are against us in this... But now I have hope that we can win.

I think it's worth it to fight for the Earth, no matter what the cost to us... - And you? ...I do too...

Keiichi, do you mind if we run out for a minute? We won't be gone for long. - Go ahead.

Ready?

We have to join forces and fight with Gamera... - Right.

Look out!

Transform!

Kilara! - We were nearly killed!

Gamera! It's Gamera!

Gamera! Gaos is attacking the city! Hurry up and help!

Kilara, is that Keiichi's Gamera? - It sure is!

My turtle really did it! My turtle turned into Gamera! My turtle turned into Gamera!

Gamera! Gamera!

Hey boy!

What's that you said? - My pet turtle has turned into Gamera!

Gamera? - Yes, now he can go and fight!

Say, how about we go for a little walk. You can tell me all about him along the way. - Okay. But I'm sure Gaos will be defeated soon.

Damnit, I don't like being out here like this. - Do we really have to get the pictures? Of course, pictures are important...

I can't see him anywhere... - Where is the stupid thing...

There he is... Get the pictures, get the pictures!

Hey! Hey! Stop the car!

Hurry, hurry! Come on! Let's get out of here...

Go ahead and get them... - Right, right... Come on! - I'm taking them!

Did you see him on TV last night!? - Yeah, I saw him fighting on the news...

Hey boy!

It's you!

I saw Gamera fight... - You mean, you saw him fighting too?

Yes, I was there when it happened... - Really! That's super!

And if Gaos appears again, then Gamera is finished...

How can she say something like that... You believe he can win... don't you? - Of course we do!

But, why would she want him to lose?

Gaos has been defeated...

I think that Gaos was under Zanon control... - They destroyed our home world... And now they seem intent to destroy this one as well... - Hey, it's Gamera...

Keiichi would have loved to see it... - It's okay... I'm sure he's seeing it in his dreams... - That's right...

He did it... Gamera won... He did it!

Giruge!! Who is this Gamera?

Keiichi seems to be somehow connected to him...

Well find out more about him... - Right!

Gaos has failed us. Our next attack will be made from the sea. Take the boy as hostage and force the space women to reveal themselves.

Yes, I'll begin right away.

Mother, mother! Did you know that Gamera deafeated Gaos last night?

On with this monster nonsense again? I'm really not interested in your silliness... - It's funny... I wonder why it's not in any of the newspapers or on the television today...

It sounds to me like you've been dreaming again...

But, all of my dreams seem to come true. Like with Gamera, I dreamt that he would come to protect us...

Stop with this nonsense and see if your father is awake...

It's Sunday isn't it? Let him sleep... He just got back anyway. Last night I dreamt that Gamera would fight the monsters in the sea...

You certainly do get excited about these monsters. I wish you'd learn to be a little more serious about your school work...

But wait, I know someone who will listen to me... See you later!

...crazy kid...

So the next attack will come from the sea? - You mean you really believe me?

Of course I do. - That's great. Bye now!

Hey Keiichi! - Oh, it's you. Gamera won last night...

You're right. How'd you like to go out for hamburgers to celebrate?

What? That'd be great!

So... you think the next ones will come from the sea? - You mean you believe me too?

Of course I do. Say, Keiichi... Have you told anyone else about it?

Yes... I told mother this morning... and...

- And? ...the woman at the pet shop!

The pet shop?

That's strange... Why aren't I getting a reading? It must be because she's disguised as an Earth woman... These silly people will never succeed...

He sister, what are you doing? - Oh, nothing!

Say Keiichi. Would you like to go to the ocean and see Gamera? - Is that really possible?

Yup, just follow me.

Now... close your eyes... What? You want to see Gamera don't you? You'll have to do as I say...

Heeeeeeeeeelp meeeeeeeee! I'm feeling sick! I don't want to be in this anymore! Heeeelp meee!

What, sister!

We're here? - That's right! But how... Hey sister... I'll bet you're a real space woman...

That's right. I'm here to help the Earth. - That's great!

What's that out there!?

It's headed this way!

Is it okay, sister? - It's all right!

It's still coming! - We'll be all right.

Ah! It's Gamera!

Good luck!

The deep sea monster: Zigra

That's it Gamera!

Use your fire, Gamera!

Hurray! He won! He won!

What's wrong here, how did he lose? - Hey sister, what are you doing?

Oh, it's nothing. Come on now... It's time to go...

Not the teleport again... - What's wrong with it?

That thing makes me feel sick. I think it would be much easier to just take a train...

Please wait... There might be another monster coming. Don't you want to stay?

I've had enough, I'm ready to go!

But wait just a minute...

Wait up...

Stop!

Now wait here just a minute...

Don't you say that. Sister, I'm starting to think you might be a bad space woman...

How's that? - You didn't even look happy after Gamera killed Gaos and Zigra!

Wait!

Keiichi never stays out this long without letting me know where he is... - I understand... I haven't seen him but I'll let you know as soon as I do...

Thank you very much. Good day!

Wait!

What's this? How'd I get here?

What!?

Sister, how ever did you do that? - Just a little trick...

I know it has to be that space woman... I'll get back at you sometime... you'll see!

I get it, you and the other two... You're not really Japanese are you?

I guess it's okay if I tell you the truth...

My name is Kilara. The others are Mitan and Marsha. Understand?

I see! So, do the three of you live here? - No, we stay in the van at night...

You sleep in the van? All three of you? How do you fit?

I guess I'lljust have... to show you! - Please! Okay.

Giruge!! You'll be punished for your continued failure...

Just one more chance! Please, I promise that the space woman will be killed.

All right, I'll give you another chance. While Gamera is there, I'll send Viras. - Right!

Stand back a bit...

And heeeere we are...

What? There's nothing in there! - Hah, that's what you think. Look in here.

What? You mean it's in there? You've got to be kidding me.

Don't be so hard headed... Look in the box.

Understand?

Now I know that you're a real space woman sent here to help. - Thank you!

Keiichi! Close the box!

What's the matter? - They're preparing to attack us again...

You mean you know when they do it?

Please take me with you... You can show me how Gamera fights! - Sure. But first let's close up the van...

Deep Space Monster: Viras

Kill him Viras!

We won! - Happy now?

Damnit!

Giruge!! You've failed again. Explain yourself!

I know my mistake now... The boy isn't the one, Gamera is helping the space women...

Why didn't you destroy them to begin with!? - Because I didn't know where they were hiding. But now I know where they have been staying... ...and they won't escape me!

Your mother came by... She was worried about you. You'd better head home... - Right. See you later!

Keiichi! - What is it? Don't tell anyone our secret, okay?

It's safe with me. Later!

What happened? - Did you tell him everything?

Yes... But it's okay... He's really very nice...

Have you both gotten your days off of work? - Yes.

Things are really happening fast... Soon we'll have to show yourselves...

So... it's happening... - It's happening.

Have a good night... - You too, and no more reading those monster books of yours...

All right!

Well, you really did a super job today Gamera!

That stinks... I was just dreaming... I thought it was real...

What's that? Still closed? Oh wait, I know where to find them.

What!?

Sister!?

Sister!? - Yes!

Sister?

What's that? You mean you were sleeping while someone tried to kill you?

What do you mean? - I mean someone tried to kill you. Your car isn't there anymore! Look!

What'd they do to it? - They must have burned it while you were sleeping...

Shit... - But, how did you survive inside that box while the rest of your car disappeared?

That's because the box is protected by a powerful force field...

Then why not use the force field to protect the van as well? - Because the force field reQuires a lot of energy. And we only have enough to protect the box...

This is terrible, that means they know where we've been hiding... - We have to find some way to get back to the shop... - But how?

Keiichi, can you do us a small favor? - Sure, but how can I possibly help you?

We'll transform and hide in the box. Then you can take us back to the shop...

I understand. But won't the space ship's radar pick you up while you're turned into space women?

Normally it would, but the force field keeps us from being seen.

OK, let's do it!

Ready? - Yes!

Hey boy!

What are you doing there? Is the woman who runs the shop in?

Nope! - I see...

What's wrong? Any trouble? - No, I told her you weren't in.

Reporting mission completed. Proceeding with other objectives.

Now that those women are out of the way, Gamera will be easier to defeat...

Right. We'll send Jiger. - Right.

Giant Devil Beast: Jiger

That's it, Gamera's here!

How did he find out!?

We won again!

Giruge!! You've failed me again! You'll be killed for this!

Yes. - Are you prepared to die?

I implore you, just one more chance. I know I can do it. We'll put Gamera under our control. Then we can use him to do our work. We can use a control device attached to his neck.

Very well, where is Gamera now? - He's headed for the beach.

There. Gamera is now under our control. Commence operations.

Gamera: Go and destroy the Earth! Go and destroy the Earth!

Hey, what the hell is that?

It's Gamera. Gamera is here!

Hurry up and get out of here! The dam is going to break!

Gamera has suddenly switched sides and attacked Japan. The military is powerless to stop him. Unless some means is found to destroy him, it is inevitable that the country will be completely destroyed...

G... Gamera! What are you thinking Gamera!?

But... Sister, why is Gamera helping the enemy? - I'll see if I can find out...

Mitan... take the controls for a minute... - Right.

That's it, they've attached a control machine to him...

But, how do we get rid of it? - We'll have to explode it.

Explode it? But, you didn't bring any weapons!

That's right... We're not allowed to have any weapons... or use any for any purpose...

Then, how do we explode it?

I'll act as a decoy, and use the space men's beam to destroy it...

It's something I have to do. Otherwise the space men may destroy this planet much like they destroyed ours...

But that means you'll have to transform into a space woman...

That's right.

But... They'll track you down and kill you!

That's a risk I'm willing to take. Marsha, Mitan, take care of him...

Sister!

She's finally revealed herself...

Kilara, you can't go alone... - That's right, let us come with you!

It's dangerous enough for just one of us to risk it...

Sister! Be careful!

Sister, you did it! - Congratulations!

Gamera, you're free now! Go and fight the other monsters! You can beat them all!

Fight! Gamera!

Gamera! You can win!

I'm happy!

Gamera is going to fight the monster no matter where they are... - I sure hope he wins...

Well... I'd say it's about time for us to head home...

This time you won't be lucky enough to escape me!

Take Keiichi!

You've hindered my plans for far too long. Now I have to kill all of you...

Why don't you kill me?

I don't believe in it. To kill any living thing goes against my principles. Take back your blaster...

Kilara! - You did great!

Thank you very much!

Why would you do it!? - Because I'm a complete failure...

Meanwhile, on the planet where the monsters are kept...

Giant Evil Beast: Guiron

How did I get here? - You don't remember?

Keiichi and his friends brough you here. You've been hurt, but it should heal pretty Quickly over the next few days...

Has he been here all this time? - Yes, he seems to think you need protecting...

He's still an only child, but he has always wanted a sister. He likes you, so you're welcome to stay as long as you like.

Me, as a sister... after all the bad things I've done...

The Chilling Monster: Barugon

After laying waste to the city of Kobe, the chilling monster Barugon made his way to the city of Osaka...

Barugon is dying.

That's it, Gamera has won!

Gamera! Gamera is coming back victorious!

You think so? - I know it. Let's go and meet him over at the park!

Didn't I tell you?

Gamera! Welcome back!

Giruge!! You can no longer be depended on. I have given orders for space ship Zanon to destroy the Earth.

Giruge!! Do you hear me!?

Yes.

The space women from the peaceful star are still alive. Destroy them!

I'll show you where they are. Aim your laser at these coordinates...

The coordinates are sent... Space women in target. Fire!

What's happened!?

Space ship Zanon is about to attack. Even Gamera is not powerful enough to stop it. You must find some way. You must!

Sister, you'll be all right!

Thank you, boy. If it's true that we are reincarnated after we die... Then I should like to be born again here...

Good bye...

Sister! - She sacrificed herself to save us...

Gamera! - Gamera is going to battle space ship Zanon! He'll be killed!

Gamera! Don't go Gamera! Come back! Come back!

Gamera! You'll be killed! Come back! Gamera!

Keiichi, Gamera sacrificed himself for the sake of the Earth. He won our fight against evil!

So... Does that mean we'll be able to live peacefully from now one?

That's right...

Keiichi...

Be brave...

You see?

Keiichi, you're a space man now. Understand?

So... Let's go see the world...
