A
mysterious new amusement park called "Children's Land" is being erected
in Tokyo, with a Godzilla Tower. A young manga cartoonist who is struggling
to get ahead volunteers his services but he finds himself having doubts
when he sees a young woman fleeing from the building, pursued by the same
man he had talked to who was the head of Children's Land. In her haste,
she dropped a tape.
The
cartoonist points her pursuers in the wrong direction; then picks up the
tape and enters the building. The "chairman", a seventeen year old boy,
tells him that the woman is an enemy of peace. The woman approaches him
later that evening, accompanied by someone else: a long haired hippie sticking
a gun in his back. He faints. He wakes up in his own apartment to find
the woman and the hippie with him. It turns out that the hippie was in
fact armed with an ear of corn!
They
play the mysterious tape, alerting the owners and awakening the monsters
on Monster Island. Godzilla tells Angorus to see what's going on. The three
drive to a countryside house where they learn that the so-called "chairman"
and his partner has been dead for a year. Suspicions aroused, the three
drive back to Tokyo.
Angorus
appears in Sagami Harbor and is greeted with cannon shells and bright search
lights in his face. Having had enough, Angorus returns to Monster Island.
In the Godzilla Tower, the woman's brother is being held prisoner. The
cartoonist sneaks back into the Godzilla Tower to ascertain his presence
there.
Having
confirmed the woman's worst fear, Kotaka is then caught by the Children's
Land policymaker. The man gives Kotaka a pack of cigarettes which, unknown
to him, contain transmitters in the filters. The bad guys walk into the
apartment and steal the tape, and as they threaten to kill the three of
them, the cartoonist's sister walks in. She kicks all their butts with
karate and they flee. The foursome go to the police with the information
only to have their story poohpoohed.
The
report arrives that Godzilla and Angorus have broken loose and are headed
for Japan. The bad guys call Ghidrah from outer space and Gigan from Space-Hunter
Nebula Universe M. The two space monsters head for Planet Earth. Gigan
and Ghidrah proceed to destroy Tokyo; Ghidrah with its trademark lightning
bolts spitting from its three heads, and Gigan with its belly saw. Their
destruction spree is rudely interrupted when Godzilla and Angorus show
up on the scene.
Meanwhile,
the cartoonist, his sister, and the woman's brother find out the truth
about Children's Land's policymakers; they are aliens from another planet.
They are giant cockroaches who take on the form of human beings. At the
film's end, Godzilla and Angorus' combined efforts succeed in beating back
Ghidrah and Gigan; the Godzilla tower is knocked in to a pile of rubble;
and the aliens are destroyed. Japan finds itself enjoying calm but not
cleanup once again!
