Invasion of Astro-Monster
Kazuo Fuji was an astronaut for the World Space Agency headed towards the newly discovered Planet X with his colleague Glenn. When he and his partner landed, Fuji set out to plant some flags on the planet's surface but when he returned to the landing site, he found that his partner and their ship had vanished. He was then contacted by the Controller of Planet X and was made to enter the Xiliens' underground city. He was led to his partner Glenn and they were formally introduced to the Controller, who made them an offer. The Xilien planet was terrorized by a kaiju called Monster Zero. The Xiliens offered the astronauts a drug to cure cancer (all diseases in the American dub) in exchange for Godzilla and Rodan. The astronauts informed their superiors of the trade offer, and plans were put into motion. Meanwhile, Fuji's sister Haruno had been dating an inventor whom Fuji disapproved of, and Fuji learned that while he was away, the man had made $100,000 from selling an invention, and became indignant about his disapproval. Eventually, Glenn told Fuji that he saw the Controller on Earth, a claim that Fuji initially scoffed at, but was later proven to be true. Fuji eventually was chosen to return to Planet X with Glenn and the leader of the World Space Agency. When they returned to Earth with the tape, they played it and learned that it held, not a formula, but a declaration of dominance over Earth. Fuji eventually found that the Xilien UFOs had the monsters under control with magnetic waves, and he began to develop a beam in order to disrupt the signals. They are eventually put to use alongside sounds that are found to immobilize Xiliens, and the alien horde is defeated.
