The movie focuses on Shoichi Tsukioka and Koji Kobayashi, a pair of "fishing scouts," who are the first to discover Godzilla fighting the spiny monster Anguirus on a deserted island. The pilots follow Godzilla as he moves on to Osaka, causing havoc along the way. The men then help the Japanese Air Force distract Godzilla so that the monster can be subdued. |
