Godzilla 1: Kaijuu Wakusei (Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters) (GODZILLA 怪獣惑星)

Captain Sakaki, please respond. We should be able to communicate.

My demands are to leave Planet Tau-e immediately,

and abandon the emigration project.

Until I hear from the captain, I'm not moving from here.

The Tau-e emigration decision was made by the Central Committee.

Your interference will be classified as a first-degree crime.

People will not survive on that planet!

If I'm a criminal, then the Committee members are murderers!

Look at this.

The emigration list is made up of volunteers.

Why do you interfere?

Shut up!

You gathered old men and women, coerced them, and call that volunteering?

You're going to kill them!

All you want to do is reduce the mouths to feed!

Watch your words, Captain!

We're communicating through an open channel.

Everyone on this ship can hear us, right?

Right now, this ship is trying to abandon the elderly people.

We may be low on resources.

But can this be forgiven?

Weren't we looking for the promised land that would save us?

Can you really abandon the weak and continue to hold your head up high?

Captain Sakaki.

I'll wait one hour.

If this ship doesn't change course, I will blow up this shuttle.

I'm not bluffing!

Please stop already, Captain Sakaki.

It's true that we, the volunteers, really do want to go to Tau-e.

We're not being chased out or anything.

Don't be foolish! This is suicide!

We've been on this ship for over 20 years while wandering through space.

The young people may be able to endure this.

But for us, we're at our limit.

But... if you give up, then...

Haruo.

-...then it's all over! -Haruo!

It's okay.

At least, when I die, I'd like to be standing on land.

It could be on any planet.

Grandpa.

PLANET OF THE MONSTERS

It began in the last summer of the 20th Century.

Look at that! It's a monster! This is an unbelievable scene.

For the first time...

humanity realized they weren't the rulers of this planet anymore.

Monsters.

From the depths of the earth and sea, or even from a forgotten divine myth,

they kept appearing, relentlessly.

In order to bring an end to humanity's prosperity.

The UN Countermeasure HQ has named it "Godzilla."

And then, in the end, our worst nightmare appeared.

Godzilla.

Human or monster, it burned everything in sight.

The avatar of destruction.

At 2:30 EST, a large-scale nuclear attack was launched against Godzilla, but failed.

At midnight, the EC Allied Forces announced they have begun evacuations...

The earth collapsed and the skies rained fire.

And then, it was not only Earth's humans who feared its destructive power.

Above the UN building, mysterious flying objects--

People of Earth, we are the Exif.

We are observers and predictors.

We have come to tell you of your destiny.

The time of destruction is nigh. You must discover a path to devotion.

We are the Bilusaludo.

Our home planet, the third planet in the Bilusaludia Binary System,

was swallowed by an accursed black hole and destroyed.

We are requesting immigration to this solar system's third planet.

If you accept, we promise to eradicate your greatest threat, Godzilla.

Those from a far away galaxy, who were after this blue planet for themselves,

didn't wait for this paradise of oxygen and water to become scorched earth.

-Godzilla has passed the defense line! -The walls will give us some time.

A3 and A5 blocks' AIs are silent!

-Mecha-Godzilla won't activate! -Why won't it activate?

Atomic breath detected! Incoming!

The fourth armored wall is gone! It's over!

We have no choice. Evacuate!

All units, evacuate! Hurry!

Wait! If we can activate Mecha-Godzilla, we can defeat it!

We're leaving, Galu-gu!

However, even with the humanoids' gathered intelligence,

the destroyer's powers overwhelmed us completely.

Where's Mom and Dad?

They'll catch up soon. See? That's the bus.

Hey, what's that?

It's Godzilla!

Godzilla's here!

Haruo! Hurry up!

I remember the flames that burned the sky,

and the sunken, despaired faces of the adults.

We departed hoping to find another inhabitable planet.

However, we would soon pay the price for such foolish optimism.

In the frozen, black space,

this was a kind of hell worse than our planet destroyed in flames.

There were endless days of suffering from hunger, thirst, and cold.

Some fell to disease.

And others gradually lost their sanity.

Our brethren's numbers plummeted in the blink of an eye.

Even those still living had no time to mourn the dead.

Kindness and pride are now long-gone stories of the past.

A fairy tale from the time we each had unlimited access to water and oxygen.

Where are we going... and for what reason?

Must we endure the misery of having prolonged our lives

by sacrificing others?

Why are we alive?

Why?

Why?

Were you having a nightmare?

So, you're here, Metphies.

It's also my job to listen to a prisoner's confession.

So I should repent to your god?

I'd settle for a fake confession, too.

Here's the data you asked for.

Thank you.

You have quite the persistence.

I don't have anything else to do.

Won't you get in trouble if they find out you're helping?

I have an interest in your enthusiasm.

Why are you so curious about digging up forbidden data

that anyone would otherwise wish to forget exists?

"Why," you ask?

I've also been thinking "why."

Ever since I was thrown in here, that word won't get out of my head.

Why have we become so miserable?

Was it inevitable? A justified punishment?

No.

The reason we're suffering is because we lost to that bastard.

We didn't fight to the end, but gave up and ran away.

Everything is destiny.

We humanoids had no way of fighting that monster.

I disagree.

And I'll show them.

We just needed the right strategy and planning,

and humanity could have defeated it.

I'll prove it.

It's a strange thing.

Unlike the young ones, your generation experienced the calamity firsthand.

And yet, it's as if you want to see that creature again.

Based on the Gematron calculation, the predictions look disappointing.

The possibility of finding a habitable planet in 20 years is 0.1%.

If we want better results than Tau-e, the outlook is even grimmer.

The lack of resources is severe.

Even doubling the discomfort index, life will be unsustainable in eight years.

The landing ship explosion the other day was a significant psychological blow.

-This is getting... -Indeed.

We need to examine scenario number three in a realistic way.

Returning to Earth. It's already 11.9 light years away.

There's no precedent for traveling so far. It's too risky.

Gematron's guidance isn't bound by time or distance.

As long as the nuclear reactor has sufficient energy, travel is possible.

According to the ship's simulator, it requires 170% of its operation ratio.

I don't know if we can mobilize the manpower.

Would it be a constructive decision to abandon the emigration?

That's the problem.

If we return to Earth, would we be able to survive?

It is currently impossible to calculate how much time has passed on Earth.

At the very least, a few thousand years.

Since we fled Earth, the environment should have calmed down.

It's possible it could've gotten worse.

The problem is that strange thesis published on the shared server.

Why would that research thesis appear at a time like this?

The writer remains anonymous,

but it contains information that requires special log-in credentials to access. The author aside, there's probably an informant in the Central Committee.

R-Ridiculous!

There's an electromagnetic shield under the body's surface?

It's not a normal organism?

No, its whole body is like a giant coil.

Is that true?

So, what happened in the end?

It's kind of weird.

A new Gematron code is using 80% of the calculation server's power.

Eighty percent?

Isn't it the analysis for predictions?

Still, for a simulation, it's too much.

So, the rumor of returning to Earth is true?

It's 11.9 light years in one go.

Is a subspace jump-warp even possible?

It's not a problem if we use Gematron calculation.

I heard it directly from Navigation.

Gematron, huh?

The ship leaders turn to the gods, as usual.

Maybe even that new anti-Godzilla tactic was a leak from the higher-ups?

Man, are we going to fight it again?

It's a monster that withstood an attack of 150 nuclear warheads at once.

That's 40 megatons of nucleoplasm total.

But the thesis contained new strategies on how to fight it.

Huh?

It's me.

Hey, come in.

So, the Central Committee is leaning towards going to Earth, huh?

Not entirely.

To give up searching for a habitable planet

means someone has to bear that responsibility.

If they're so weak they give up drifting after only 20 years, it can't be helped.

Well, I do sympathize.

They haven't dealt with the loss of their home planet as long as we have.

And then, there's your practical joke.

Obviously, it's a headache for Mori.

I uploaded a new version this morning. Did you read it?

Yeah. When I downloaded it, it already had over 400 views.
