Ultraman

Featuring Fossil Monster Stegon.

Sir!

Hm?

Oh.

This looks like a rib fragment. Dig it up carefully.

Yes, sir!

Sakata, it's MAT.

They must be on patrol.

Oh, it's Go-san!

Hey, Go-san!

Hey!

We're digging for monster!

What?!

Let's check it out.

Here.

Wow. This is impressive.

That's a monster bone.

Huh. Digging for fossils, huh?

This place is a prime example of the Jurassic Period.

It's a fossil treasure trove.

This is my teacher, Mr. Yoshimoto.

I'm Yoshimoto. It's a pleasure.

I'm Go of MAT. This is Minami.

Hi, it's a pleasure.

Sakata often mentions you. Almost every day in fact.

Mr. Yoshimoto knows a lot about monster.

We're all members of the Monster Study Group.

The Monster Study Group?

Well, I majored in biology.

So, I thought we could dig fossils while learning about evolution

and how Earth came to be.

I see. Having fun While learning, is it?

No wonder Jiro-kun knows so much about monster.

Oh! Look out!

Stop! Stop!

That's dangerous!

We haven't dug there yet! Please wait!

We're in the middle of a rush construction! Go ahead!

Now move. Oh!

Wait a minute!

Isn't this the fossil of a dinosaur's tail?

It does kind of look like that.

There's a fossil of dinosaur skin in the Natural History Museum in America.

Let's have the children dig this up.

This might be a dinosaur's tail.

What are you talking about? Are you trying to disrupt our work?

As MAT, we need to investigate it.

Right?

R-Right. We'd like about a week to check it out.

If this is a tyrannosaurus it'd be amazing.

It's got spikes so it might be a stegosaurus.

I can't hear a heartbeat. There's no problem here.

Well, we better be going.

-Yeah. -Okay.

Thanks to you we were able to touch a real dinosaur.

Look.

The children's eyes. They're sparkling.

I'm glad we could help. Excuse us.

Jiro-kun, later.

Bye.

So there's no danger to the children digging?

-No. There's nothing to worry about there. -Hm.

The children were really happy.

I see. In that case, if my son hears about it, he'll go running to join.

Phone call for Go.

Okay.

Yes, this is Go. Oh, Mr. Yoshimoto!

Yes. Yes.

I see. I'll ask.

The children are asking us to come see their research results.

I see. Why don't you check it out?

Yes, sir.

We'd be happy to. Yes, tomorrow is fine.

Thank you.

-What's this? -Are you ready?

Yes.

Then let's begin.

Okay!

-Sakata. -Okay.

The dinosaurs appeared roughly 300 million years ago on the Paleozoic Era Earth

and thrived from the Triassic to the Jurassic period of the Mesozoic Era.

This was roughly 140 million years ago.

In the world of dinosaurs, the strong kill the weak

in a harsh dog eats dog world.

Among the more violent was the carnivorous Ornitholestes and the Allosaurus.

They would attack the docile, swamp-dwelling

Brontosaurus or Diplodocus and feed on them.

How intense.

How cruel.

I wonder if Red King is stronger?

Around this time, Pteranodon and ancestors of birds, Archaeopteryx flew in the skies.

Oh, it's Rodan.

I saw Rodan Vs. Godzilla.

This is a dinosaur egg that was dug up from the Mongolian Gobi Desert.

Go-san.

Is that a Twintail egg?

I don't know.

It must be King Gidora's.

It must be Takkong's.

For 150 million years across the Mesozoic Era, the dinosaurs ruled Earth,

but eventually met their nemesis and were wiped out.

It was the cold.

The dinosaurs gradually stopped being able to move.

They lost the energy to find food.

Meanwhile, mammals were able to survive

by adjusting their body temperature to their environment.

Over the next 70 million years, mammals continued to evolve

and human history was made.

END

Wow, that's impressive.

Did you like it?

Yeah. It taught me a lot about Earth's 300-million-year history.

STEGON

Is this dinosaur called Stegon?

This was drawn by the children based on the tail fossil.

"Stegon" is a nickname taken from the dinosaur, stegosaurus.

Sir, let's go!

-Oh. -Sir, let's go. Hurry, hurry!

Okay, okay. I get it, I get it.

We're going to the site.

They've been looking forward to digging every day.

Give my regards to Stegon.

Okay.

Let's go. Let's get going.

Come on, hurry.

KEEP OUT TOUA CONSTRUCTION

What's going on?

It's dangerous! Go on home!

I thought work was on hold for one week.

-We've decided to blow it up. -What?

Don't blow up Stegon! Please, mister!

Yeah! That's cruel!

Please. Give us two days. No, today is enough. Let us dig it up.

We've already set the dynamite.

No! Don't blow it up!

Hey! Wait! Hey!

Stegon! Stegon!

No!

Stop! Let go!

Stegon!

Is it going to be okay?

Oh!

Oh, Stegon's all right!

Thank goodness! It's so big!
