It was the last summer vacation as an elementary school student. A vague anxiety about the future in each heart. Brody, the son of the commander of the U.S. Forces in Japan, appears before the three of them, stealing the cash that the three boys had saved up for their break from school. Boko plans on attaining the money back, but when their plan is executed, a crisis comes to town. The mighty Gyaos has attacked Tokyo, and is about to destroy the four boys, when a new monster appears, named Gamera. This was the beginning of “Monster Summer” for the four of them. Four more monsters appear, one after another, with Gamera fighting despite being injured. This summer, the boys witness the legend — GAMERA.
