Ultraman

Featuring Yeti Alien Varduck.

A little more to Mt. Gongen where the Abominable Snowman lives.

Will it really be there?

It Will.

The Himalayan files said this year it will appear for the first time in 12 years.

The legends and climate conditions and year-round snow here

are the same as in the Himalayas.

If we can just get a picture of it, we'll know everything.

Yeah. Everyone at the laboratory will see my thesis is more than a bunch of legends,

but something of anthropological value.

When that happens, we can finally get married.

I'm sorry I put you through so much.

Oh, it was nothing.

Let's go.

Right.

Hideo-san! Look!

The Abominable Snowman!

Yoko-san!

Hideo-san, quickly! Take a picture!

Miss this chance, and you might not get another!

Idiot! What are you talking about!

You're the most precious thing to me!

I'm sorry! Hurry and get a picture! Hurry!

Are you hurt?

I'm fine! Now, quickly!

Okay. Stay right here.

Hideo-san.

Hideo-san!

Hideo-san!

Yes, this is MAT HQ.

What? Lost in the mountains?

Call the police for things like that.

What? The Abominable Snowman showed up?

It's a little early in the year for jokes.

Kishida, what is it?

Just a moment.

They say the Abominable Snowman appeared at Mt. Gongen in Nagano.

Someone's read too many horror novels.

Minami, don't be so quick to judge.

Yes, sir.

Captain, call from the observatory.

What is it?

Minus 273 degrees. A planet of absolute zero temperatures,

is fast approaching Earth for the first time in 240 years.

I see. Okay.

A frozen planet. The Abominable Snowman. Hah! Nothing but cold stories.

Yeah. Come to think of it, recently it's been cold every day.

I see.

Huh?

It looks like you're getting out of shape.

Let's have you...

and Kishida check it out.

What, Captain?

As you can see... Hup! Hup! Hup! I'm not out of shape.

Right. You've got excess energy, so you'll be going.

Huh?

Kishida.

Yes, sir!

Go! Yes, sir!

Investigate the Mt. Gongen area.

Head out at once! Yes, sir!

That's a bad idea. Going to the mountain now is crazy.

You don't know the dangers of the Yeti.

The Yeti? Yeah.

Around here, that's what we call the Abominable Snowman.

Every year, energetic youths come to look for it and go missing.

During the winter, they can't be found no matter how hard we look.

Then, in spring, their bodies are found hanging from tall trees.

That must be the Yeti's doing.

That Yoko kid is lucky.

We found her at the charcoal burner hut no one usually goes to.

Come to think of it, she said she heard the Yeti's voice.

Just remembering it makes me shake.

Did anyone see the Abominable Snowman?

Isn't that a Himalayan story?

Don't be stupid.

You say that because you don't know the cold winds that blow on Mt. Gongen.

See? The Yeti's mad.

It's almost night. Going to the mountain now is like suicide.

But someone is lost on that mountain.

You should protect that girl tonight.

Now that she's seen the Abominable Snowman, it'll come after her.

That's crazy.

Some in this village were killed because of that.

We can't do anything. Please, look after that girl.

That's why you're here, right?

Well, actually, we...

-Please. -Please.

Okay.

This is all because you went and said "okay."

Well, seeing their serious faces, it seemed true.

Hmm. Yeah. You're a mystic.

What's wrong?!

Oh! The Abominable Snowman was outside that window!

You were dreaming. Forget about the Abominable Snowman.

It wasn't a dream!

-Kishida, look at this. -Huh?

It's frozen in a strange way.

That's just because of the cold wind.

If the Abominable Snowman was here, this freezing makes sense.

Go, what are you talking about in the 20th century.

The age of legends is over.

But, I'm sure I saw it with these very eyes!

The Abominable Snowman

coming to the village during the cold winter every 12 years is true.

The cold winter every 12 years...

Come to think of it, this year's winter was early.

The northeast and Hokkaido are having bad cold damage.

Knock it off. Trying to scientifically prove legends is nonsense.

If only Hideo-san had taken a picture then,

his work on the Abominable Snowman would be complete.

The Abominable Snowman doesn't exist.

That's a creature of legend.

Hideo-san.

When I got lost in the blizzard and was resting in a hole, I realized it.

The Abominable Snowman doesn't exist. It's just a legend people made up.

Then what about your thesis you worked so hard on?

My thesis?

Your Abominable Snowman existence thesis.

What's wrong, Hideo-san?

I'm canceling that.

What?

What about our marriage?

We can do that after we return to Tokyo.

Let's go home.

Wait a minute!

Oh! He's cold.

That's right. Yoko-san isn't strong enough to walk about outside.

Why don't you look after her here for a while?

Please.

Your body must be frozen. Why don't you warm up and talk with us a bit?

I'm going home ahead.

Hideo-san.

Hey!

Hey, Go.

You heard the Abominable Snowman sensei There's no Abominable Snowman.

MAT can't act on personal emotions.

Now we know for sure that the Abominable Snowman is an imaginary legend.

Right.

She became confused in the cold snow

and believes she saw and heard things that weren't there.

You doesn't seem convinced, Go.

No, sir.

I can't believe that Hideo Tsumura returned from that mountain safely.

Besides, his attitude at the hospital was strange.

Go.
