THE STORY SO FAR:
Detective Makoto Sato has been framed for murder by Takahashi, the leader of the Tokyo criminal underworld. In his quest to bring Takahashi to justice, Sato has enlisted the aid of Mothra, via her caretakers, the Elias. While at first successful, this plan has backfired, and the Elias have been captured by Takahashi. With the natural balance of the world greatly disturbed, monsters rampage through Tokyo. Now Sato, thanks to his sons, has one last shot at saving the day: Mechagodzilla!
