I'm risking my life in this project.

Would you be able to keep it a secret?

Follow me.

Wow!

Get back!

Emiko, you're the only one I've shown this to.

Don't forget it.

Yes, I'll keep my promise.

Welcome back. We missed you. Welcome home.

Did anything happen?

No, it was nothing.

Has Emiko come back? Yes!

Godzilla! Godzilla has come back!

Ogata!

I couldn't tell him about us.

I am Yamane, Professor Yamane!

I'm sorry, but I've been ordered not to let anyone pass!

Then tell your commander not to use lights on Godzilla!

They will only make him angry!

He can't be bothered by that now!

Professor, let's go to that hill.

Get back, please! Get back, please!

International Researchers to Assist!

We are preparing to construct a 30 meter high, 80 meter deep barbed-wire fence along the coast.

We will send 50,000 volts of electric current through the fence in hope of electrocuting Godzilla to death.

We will have to evacuate the people along the coast, of course, and maintain a safe distance of 500 meters from the entire fence perimeter.

The Coast Guard and the Army will work to implement this defense plan.

Hurry! Hurry!

This is a Security Command Announcement.

At 16:
30 hours, Godzilla was sighted north of Kasonzaki, moving in a northeast direction.

A maximum security alert has been issued for the coastal zones in the Tokyo vicinity.

Third District. Third District.

Check! Check!

Third district!

Check!

This is a special news report. This is a special news report.

All residents of the Minato, Shinagawa and Osaku districts are to begin evacuating immediately.

Repeating, all residents of the Minato, Shinagawa and Osaku districts are to begin evacuating immediately.

Please keep your radio on for further reports.

Emiko, today I'm going to ask for your father's consent.

Will that be all right?

Welcome home.

What happened, Father?

All they can think about is killing Godzilla.

Why can't they try to study him from a radiological perspective?

It's an unique opportunity!

Professor, I agree with them.

Ogata, I do not take this matter lightly.

Godzilla is something that no one in the world has ever seen, and only those of us in Japan can study it!

But, Professor, that's no reason to do nothing while this monster ravages our country.

Isn't Godzilla a product of the atomic bomb that still haunts many of us Japanese?

Don't you think we should study what keeps a creature like this alive, regardless of the radiation it absorbs!

But...

All you want is to kill Godzilla, too?!

Go away! Get out of my house!

I'm very sorry.

No, I shouldn't have upset him like that.

No, Father has been like this.

Emiko, give me a chance to see him again.

This is a special bulletin! This is a special bulletin!

Godzilla was spotted moving toward the coastline several minutes ago.

The barbed-wire fence along the shoreline is about to be charged with high voltage electricity.

We repeat...

Direction, 25 to 30 degrees!

Distance, 850!

Fires are raging through the Shihabara district.

We have no way to put them out.

This is Central Command, come in, unit 465.

Central Command, this is unit 465.

The fire that started in Mitadai-machi has spread to other districts!

This is Central Command, come in, unit 215.

Central Command, unit 215.

Our defense lines have broken!

Armored division #49 has been destroyed!

The current position of the target is unknown. We are awaiting further orders, please!

Attention all units! Attention all units!

Initiate Security Command code 129!

Initiate Security Command code 129!

Prepare to repel attack while carrying out firefighting procedures.

Concentrate efforts to rescue casualties.

Initiate Security Command code 129!

Initiate Security Command code 129!

We'll be joining your father in just a moment!

A little longer, a little longer, and we'll be with your daddy!

This is unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable!

Yet, the unbelievable is happening at this moment, right before our very eyes!

Right now, Godzilla is leaving behind a sea of flame!

From Ginza-Owari to Shinbashi, Tamachi, Chiba and Shinabara, it's all become a sea of flames!

Now, Godzilla is starting to move again!

It appears that he is moving beyond the city limits!

To all of our viewers, this is not a play or a movie!

This is real, the most extraordinary story of the century!

Is the world going to be destroyed by a two million-year-old monster?

All personnel to the shelters! All personnel to the shelters!

Quickly, please! Quickly, please!

Operational Command Staff, proceed to shelter 306!

We are reporting to you live from a short-wave transmitter.

Godzilla is now approaching this broadcasting station, heading toward our TV tower!

There is no time for us to take cover!

We don't know what will happen to us!

He is getting even closer! It looks like our doom!

I'm watching as he grabs onto the tower!

He has incredible strength!

This broadcast is over! Good-bye, everyone, good-bye!

Godzilla has turned Tokyo into a sea of flames!

He is moving from Ueno to Asakusa and Shinagawa, apparently heading for the river!

Damn it! Damn it!

Damn it!

Damn it! Damn it!

He's running away!

He'll be back! What can we do?

Damn it! How can we get rid of him?! Damn it!

Godzilla has retreated back into the sea.

Professor Yamane has been asked to work on a plan to defeat the monster.

No details are known at this time. That is the news for now.

Mr. Ogata from Southern Sea Salvage.

There has been a change in the scheduled timetable.

Please report to the briefing room for further instructions.

Thank you for your help.

Your mother will be okay.

Emiko...

Ogata, I have something important to tell you!

I can't stay quiet anymore!

I must betray him.

Betray?

Yes. I made a promise to Serizawa.

Serizawa?

It's a secret I've been keeping, even from you!

But, now, I have to break my promise!

It happened on the day that Mr. Hagiwara and I went to see him.

That's when it happened.

Get back!

What was that?

Yes.

All of the oxygen in the water was disintegrated.

The organisms in the tank died of asphyxiation.

Their remains were liquified by my Oxygen Destroyer.

Overall, it's a device that splits oxygen atoms into fluids.

My...

I intended to devote my work to the study of the element oxygen.

But, in the course of my research, I came across an unknown form of energy.

In my first experiment, I discovered a powerful force that scared me beyond words.

I didn't eat for two or three days!

Just a little piece of this, dropped into the water, could turn the entire Tokyo Bay into a graveyard!

Why are you working on such an awful project?

Emiko! I perform my work strictly as a research scientist!

But what if... what if your discovery is used for some horrible purpose?

You're right.

Used as a weapon, this would be as powerful as a nuclear bomb.

It could totally destroy humankind!

But I believe I can find a use for the Oxygen Destroyer that will benefit society.

Until then, I won't reveal its existence.
