OPERATION ULTRA SPECIAL ATTACK

You can see it too
The Star of Ultra

Far away
Alone on Earth

Dedicating his life to defeating monsters

Any moment now
He'll reach the burning town

With the echoing roar in his ear

He's returned
He's returned

Ultraman

Featuring Typhoon Monster Varricane.

Today, Tokyo's skies were once again
covered by a heavy smog.

The Loop 7 direction has
three signal waits at Ohara Intersection.

On Koshu Road, in Karasuyama,

a truck's cargo spilled
causing a traffic jam--

Tokyo's no good.
We can't test drive like this.

But the cornering
evaluation's good, isn't it?

Yeah.

It's the stabilizer in the back
that I came up with.

It's pretty good. A little customization
and the car's stable.

It's the wind.
It controls the wind pressure.

What'|| you do with this car?

I'd like to tinker with it more.

And now, on to the weather.

A patrol plane from the American Army
Coast Guard stationed in Guam has informed

the Weather Bureau of a typhoon
detected 500 km northeast of Saipan.

Another typhoon.
Central pressure is 950 millibars.

Hey, where were you?

Oh, I was helping
Sakata-san with a test drive.

We've got patrol right away.

What?

Here.

What? It's a typhoon.

It's eerie, isn't it?

The initial report from
the Coast Guard came at 10:00 AM.

The Self-Defense Force
and Weather Bureau got word at noon.

I heard on the radio on my way here.

Should MAT have to do typhoon patrols too?

Hmm.

That picture was taken at 1:00 PM
north of Saipan, right here.

But, after that
the typhoon suddenly disappeared.

It disappeared?

We're back.
First patrol has nothing to report.

We flew in a wide area around Micronesia,
but there was no sign of a typhoon.

Good work.

That's the situation, Go.
We're going on second patrol.

But, this is a picture of
a full-blown typhoon.

This disappeared so quickly?
That's impossible.

Go, Kishida, head out on second patrol!

Yes, sir!

There's nothing to see, is there?

It's all clear.
All's right with the world.

Stop putting on airs.

I'm not putting on airs.

We should be happy that
the typhoon disappeared.

There's nothing to get worked up about.

We should leave nature to nature.

That's philosophical.

Oh!

Look out!

Be careful. That was a near miss.

If we'd crashed, MAT'S budget
would have been cut.

Whew!

But, a typhoon disappearing is
like a ghost story.

The weather report's never right.

It must've gotten off course is all.

But I went on patrol today
and there really was nothing.

How far did you go?

To Guam.

Wow, cool!
Guam's still warm enough to swim, right?

Yeah.

Oh, a news bulletin.

"50 km south of Ogasawara,

a large tanker was caught in a tornado"?

They say it's missing.

Yeah.

That's strange.

A typhoon disappearing...

Meanwhile, at the ocean
far away from Tokyo,

a localized weather event was happening.

The boat caught by the giant tornado flew
through the sky and was blown to pieces.

We're from MAT.

-Ah, thank you for coming.
-Thank you for coming.

Well, I was asleep when suddenly, "Boom!"
I though the world was ending.

We go outside and there's a boat.

What kind of weather
makes a boat rain down.

The power got cut so
we were shaking in the darkness.

I never thought I'd go into
the mountains and find a boat.

You can't measure things
with a human ruler.

-Nature is great after all.
-Huh.

Good work.

Oh, Ibuki-san.

This boat fragment. Did you notice?
Obviously, it's just a piece, but...

What?

Judging from the fragment,
this wasn't just caused by wind.

The strange breakage is from
a more direct force.

More direct?

With wind, the twisting of joints is
the biggest issue.

-But this plate is split methodically.
-Hmm.

This isn't because of the wind.

You shouldn't listen to
the car radio during work.

Well, you've got to
seek information widely.

...winds have blown away smog.

With 0.001 ppm daily,
it's been a very pleasant Tokyo.

Huh. So it's thanks to the wind.

Nature is great.

I get it already.

It's wonderful. Tokyo's air tastes so good
you want to take a deep breath.

The merits and faults of nature
offsetting each other.

The Kii Peninsula? Really? Yes.

Oh, chief! Chief!

Hold on.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

As I said, a typhoon's never
suddenly disappeared before.

Could you go back over the weather maps
for the week after the typhoon appeared?

And the wind direction and speeds.
Here you go.

Chief. Urgent call from the Maritime SDF.
Huh?

A new typhoon was detected
at the Kii Peninsula.

It suddenly appeared and is
headed north northeast!

Suddenly appeared?!
Yes!

That's impossible!
It's headed right for the Kanto region.

Oh, over there.
Let's go.

Oh, over there!

It looks like a fishing fire.

Nah, it wouldn't be that bright.

Hey, just run over to the police
and let them know.

The Wind's picking up,
so you can't be too careful.

I feel something bad's going to happen.
Yeah.

Captain.

We should interpret this as a natural
phenomenon beyond human knowledge.

Hmm. Even so, we have to deal with
such newly changing nature.

Yeah.

I think the typhoon we thought vanished

is actually the one that newly appeared
at the Kii Peninsula.

Basically, the theory that it temporarily
weakened and picked up again seems right.

What about the boat
falling on the mountain?

Forget it, Go. Do it.

Yes, this is MAT.

Yes.

What?! Th-That's impossible!

That'll throw the citizens into confusion!

Yes!

Right! I'll tell him!

What's this about citizens in confusion?

It's the Meteorological Agency. The Kii
Peninsula typhoon suddenly disappeared!

It disappeared?!

At the Weather Bureau, with the recent
abnormal appearances and disappearances,

they don't know how to
inform the public or deal with it.

It has them in tears.

Consider it a bitter pill.

Kishida!

Watch your mouth.

Yes, sir.

Yes.

Yes, that's right. This is MAT.

What?

Yes.

Yes. Okay, I understand.

Did another typhoon suddenly appear?

No. There was a mysterious light spotted
on the sea tonight at the Miura Peninsula.

The Coast Guard has a patrol ship on the
way and they're requesting MAT'S backup.

Okay, got it.

It's a night patrol.

Captain, this has something to do with
the disappearing typhoon and tornado.

In that case...

This is a new form of nature?

Yes, right. That's right.

Huh.

So here we are flying, but...

I don't see anything.

There's no strange or
mysterious light at all.

Why don't we drop a flare?

Okay. Let's try that.

Flare ready.

Flare is ready.

Fire.

Fire!

All's right with the world.

Hey, is that your nature theory again?

There's nothing on the radar.

I guess there's nothing.

It was more hassle than it's worth.

You two, out the chatter
and get back here.

Yes, sir!

Hey, try to keep the radio off, Yuri-Chan.

I had the stabilizer interlocking with the
steering split into two before.

This time, I upgraded it to have
an airplane's flap-like effect

and to add a vertical tail-like wind flow.

I see. This is even better than before.

If I experiment further,
I can attach it to a MAT Arrow.

It can be used to let you fly in any wind.

But it still looks dumb.
Like a marching band.

Hey.

It's the fruits of your brother's labor.
Don't call it that.

Huh? Sakata-san!

What is it?

I saw something strange.

Oh! There's a jellyfish in the sky!

RETURN OF ULTRAMAN

It's like a jellyfish in the waves.

Oh! Its eye things flashed!

You're right. It's like a fishing fire.

What's a fishing fire?

It's a light used to gather fish.

This is Go. I've spotted
what looks like a monster.

It might be related to
the typhoons. I'm heading back now.

Roger.

Okay. Let's begin the attack at once!

Okay!

Dammit! It's really been messing with
the public and weather recently!

Wait!

What is it, Captain?

This could be more difficult
than we thought.

It's appeared near Tokyo.

Listen.

If it has something to do with
the recent typhoons,

what if we attack and it causes wind,
tornadoes, or similar violence near Tokyo?

Can a monster's biology cause typhoons?

We can't be sure of that yet!

Regardless, we can't just attack it
where civilians are nearby.

Minami, Ueno, and Oka.

Fly and scout it.

Get some pictures
and find a point we can attack.

Yes, sir!

Kishida.
Yes, sir!

Contact the related agencies.

Yes, sir!

Hey!

Oh!

Slowly approach it. Oka, get the pictures.

Okay.

This thing is really big.

Typhoon Monster Varricane showed its
giant self before MAT for the first time.

Hurry up! Hurry!

Come on. Close it quickly!

What about this board? This board.

Forget that. Get there. There.

Captain, here.

These giant tentacles are the cause.

What a terrifying creature.

Fortunately, it's docile now.

There's no guarantee it'll stay that way.

What if we attack it with missiles?

Wait. We need to know more about it.

Then we wait for it to go wild?!

Good work, Oka.

Yes, sir.

Damn typhoon monster.
Is there anything we can do?

Well...

The way I see it, it's currently
being quiet to charge energy in its body.

Then, the cycle of its docile period and
discharging of energy are the issue.

But, Minami, it may have caused some of
the typhoons that have assaulted Japan,

so we can't grasp that cycle.

Yeah, I think so, too.

So we should attack immediately!

Stop reaching violent conclusions.

Hmm.

Go, has it remained still?

Yes, sir.

Captain.

What is it, Oka?

Why don't we use a freezing b*mb?

Yeah! That's it!

We attack after freezing its tentacles!

Oka, you've got the right idea.

But, we can't count on the freezing effect
in the atmosphere.

We should use an anesthetizing shot.

We stop its functions that way.
The missiles come after.

Begin attack!

Load anesthetizing rockets in
the MAT Arrow.

Oka, Minami, Ueno, Kishida!

Begin Operation Anesthetizing Rocket!

Yes, sir!

Captain, what about me?!

You'll monitor its location on
the radar with me.

Aim the missiles at it.

Yes, sir.

The skies of Tokyo are clear thanks to it.
This feels a little bad.

Kishida, don't be stupid.

Its size alone makes it a nuisance.

There's no room for your little emotions.

But, it might be a new form of nature.

That's enough! You're acting like Go.

Ready and standing by!

Okay.

Missiles standing by.

Fire anesthetizing rocket!

Roger!

Okay. Fire!

Okay!

Yes!

Captain, the anesthetizing rockets
are working!

The missiles can be fired.
Let's finish it off!

Minami!

What's wrong?

It's descending into the city.

Captain! The wind is amazing!

It's spread its tentacles and is
spinning incredibly fast!

It's sucking houses into the air!
This is bad!

Captain! An elementary school is
getting crushed!

The wind pressure is too great to
approach with a MAT Arrow!

Dammit! If only
Sakata-san's stabilizer was completed.

Fire missiles!

Fire!

Captain! I've lost control!

The tail wing is being blown off!

It's not good!

Look out!

Captain!

MAT Arrow 1, MAT Arrow 2,
get out of there!

Get out of the storm zone!

MAT Arrow 1, MAT Arrow 2!
MAT Arrow 1, MAT Arrow 2!

Can you hear me?!

Come to think of it, it's weird.

Ultraman always takes the glory.

What are you saying?
Earth's peace is thanks to Ultraman.

Come on. Everybody
fought bravely, too. Right?

Of course we did.

By the way, Go.

While I wasn't paying attention,
where did you go?

Huh?

Oh, I went to go pray to God.

To God?

Yeah. It's who you rely on
when in trouble.

Seriously? Do you really believe in
the mysteries of nature?

Yes. Yes, this is MAT.

Yes.

Right, I understand.

What is it?

There's a smog warning over all of Tokyo.

The oxidant level is pretty bad. They're
telling people to wear masks outside.

That was from the city.

Good grief. The monster's gone
and now another problem.

Kishida.

It isn't the power of nature this time.

Yeah.

The space monster Yadokarin attacks
and invades MAT's Space Station.

Jiro-kun's in danger. You can do it,
Jiro-kun. Buildings crumble.

MAT supports Ultraman.

Let's all watch next week.
