Ultraman Mebius (ウルトラマンメビウス)

Ultraman Mebius

Gomora appeared at Johnson Island?

Yes, but by the time the local crew arrived...

It had vanished.

Isn't Johnson Island in the South Pacific?

Correct. This incident is the first time a monster appeared...

...in the Southern hemisphere, outside of Japan.

It was abnormal that they were appearing in Japan all the time.

Even space monsters and aliens had Japan in sight as well.

We're still uncertain of the space-time wave that attracts them.

Everyone, please keep a close watch.

G. I. G.

- Still, Gomora... - What kind of a monster is it?

It's a worthy opponent that even Ultraman let escape once.

Hold on.

I think I put Gomora back here... there!

Gomora destroyed the Osaka castle once.

It wouldn't come back to Japan again, right?

So what? If it does, we'll just take care of it, just like that.

Right, Mirai?

Leave it to me!

Yes, coming!

Hello, direction room?

Permission to land?

Maru...

...did we have any scheduled visits today?

Not that I know of?

Um, pardon me, but...

Priority level Special A?

GUYS Headquarters...

...Supreme Chairman's personal airplane?

An Old Friend's Visit

Space Absorptin Beast Gadiba

Skull Monster Red King

Ancient Monster Gomora

Hurry!

Oh my goodness! Hurry up!

The General Chairman is the highest authority for all of GUYS!

During the absence of our Chief Inspector...

...we have no room for the slightest blunder!

But for him to show up with no appointment...

...must not be good news!

Hey, the battery!

There must be something of the utmost importance!

We... Welcome!

Your excellency, Supreme General Chairman...

...to this far Eastern base.

Yo, Sakocchi!

Sakocchi?

Welcome to GUYS Japan.

General Chairman Takenaka.

What's the relation between the General Chairman and Captain?

He called Captain, "Sakocchi."

Two guys almost 40 years apart don't talk like that to each other.

I wonder what they're talking about.

Alright, Marina. Maybe you can hear them with your hearing.

The special reception room is completely sound proofed. No way.

Alright, Mirai.

Eavesdropping is bad!

Calling me "Sakocchi" in front of my crew is not the best idea.

Sorry about that.

It's just an old habit.

You got old.

Oh stop. We're the same age.

We were born the same year...

...but in reality, I've only lived half your age.

What's important is not how long you've lived...

At the edge of space...

...you experienced something no one else could.

Right?

We both chose the path to defend Earth...

You were put in charge of a whole Special Science team.

I was surprised when I heard you joined the extraterrestrial duty.

The far Eastern branch had a great commander named Muramatsu...

...and they had Ultraman's help too.

There was no room for me.

While you were up in space...

...Earth entered the era of monster attacks.

I was staffed at headquarters, resenting you.

Always wondering why you couldn't be there for me.

It couldn't be helped.

I couldn't contact Earth while I was travelling at sublight speed.

And once I left, it took years for me to come back.

It's called the Rip Van Winkle Effect.

Time elongates when you travel close to the speed of light.

An year on the spaceship could have been five or ten years on Earth.

I feel like Rip Van Winkle himself.

And that Captain Sakomizu, who travelled all of space...

...suddenly quit being an astronaut and came back home.

After seeing what I saw...

...you can't just fly around in space.

Sublight spaceship, Izanami. Fourth trial voyage.

As we were passing Pluto's orbit...

I was on a shuttle, away from the mothership.

Captain Sakomizu! This is Izanami!

- Captain Sakomizu, what should... - Stay away!

You must stay in the shadow of Pluto!

Captain! Please return!

You guys must return to Earth! And tell them...

...that Earth is still being targeted by outside enemies!

Captain! Watch out, Captain!

There, I witnessed...

...a silver giant standing between me and the numerous UFO's.

Captain! What's going on? Please respond!

- Captain Sakomizu! - Darn it!

It was overwhelming.

That Ultraman swept away the whole fleet with one shot.

Then told me...
