It aired from April 1 to June 24, 2021, on Tokyo MX and other channels. Production for the show is by Bones in partnership with Orange, blending hand-drawn and computer animation styles respectively. Atsushi Takahashi served as the director, with scripts by Toh EnJoe and music composed by Kan Sawada, who incorporates Akira Ifukube’s themes into the series. Character design was handled by Blue Exorcist manga creator Kazue Kato, with former Studio Ghibli animator Eiji Yamamori designing the monsters.[5][6] The series' opening theme, "in case...", is performed by BiSH, while Polkadot Stingray performed the ending theme song "Aoi" (青い, Blue).[7] There is also the recurring insert theme "ALAPU UPALA", performed by Indian-American singer Annette Philip, which is utilized in the storyline as a plot device.[citation needed] The series debuted earlier on Netflix in Japan on March 25, 2021,[8] which was followed by a global release on June 24, 2021.[9]

In Japan of the year 2030, Yun Arikawa and Haberu Katō, two employees of the "do-it-all" Otaki Factory, are hired to investigate strange power fluctuations at an abandoned mansion. They find a hidden radio picking up a repeating broadcast, which Yun identifies as an old Indian folk song, and trace it to a radio-monitoring station called Misakioku, where graduate student Mei Kamino is brought in to investigate a strange alarm that she discovers is connected to the same broadcast. Mei is later contacted online by a copy of Naratake, a popular AI created by Yun, which she renames "Pelops II." Yun and Haberu’s boss, eccentric engineer Gorō Ōtaki, theorizes that Misakioku and the broadcast are part of SETI, and are connected to alien activity. Gorō publicly unveils his newest creation, a giant robot called Jet Jaguar, at a local festival, but the event is thrown into chaos when a pterosaur-like monster called Rodan suddenly appears. It is revealed that the secret basement of Misakioku houses the skeleton of a giant creature. | |||||

Yun and Gorō distract Rodan while Jet Jaguar reboots its systems, after which the robot manages to fight off the monster. Rodan tries to fly away, but suddenly falls back to the ground and dies. Gorō theorizes that Rodan’s appearance is connected to an ancient prophecy regarding "the end of all things," while Yun discovers that Rodan might have been attracted to the city by the strange broadcast, as its roar generates strange radio waves as well. Over the next few days, several other dead Rodans are discovered in various different locations. Pelops II publishes Mei's notes on "extra-dimensional lifeforms" online, and she receives an invitation to speak with a Professor Li regarding her theories. Gorō, Yun, and Haberu prepare to search for more Rodans using a homemade radio beacon, while a giant flock of Rodans emerge from the ocean off the coast of Japan. | |||||

Gorō, Yun, and Haberu use their radio beacon to try and lure the Rodans away from the city, but Yun and Haberu's car crashes and they are forced to take shelter with other civilians. Mei and Pelops II travel to Tokyo to meet with Professor Li. After learning about the attack, Pelops II remotely takes control of one of Otaki Factory’s repair robots to check on the situation. Yun, Haberu, and the civilians distract the Rodans with improvised noisemakers, allowing them to retrieve the radio beacon. Pelops II intervenes using the borrowed robot, which is eventually destroyed by the Rodans. While leading the Rodans away, Yun and Haberu are surprised when the creatures begin to fall out of the air and die, just as the first one did. Scientists theorize that the creatures died because they originated from a different environment. Mei is invited to join Professor Li's research project in Dubai. Yun and Mei contact each other online with help from Pelops II, and Yun gives her a code to solve. Meanwhile, a military submarine is followed by Godzilla. | |||||

Two fishermen trying to find clear waters amid a "red tide" outbreak around Japan are attacked by aquatic, serpent-like monsters. Yun theorizes that Misakioku summoned the Rodans by broadcasting the song, but after contacting them he discovers that it was broadcast by accident. Scientists discover that the Rodans were coated in red dust. Yun and Haberu visit an area where the dead Rodans are being disposed of, and question Shunya Satō, a worker at Misakioku, about the broadcast. In the process, Satō reveals the existence of the giant skeleton in Misakioku’s basement. Yun and Haberu discover that one of the dead Rodans has been taken by something. Mei arrives in Dubai and attends a lecture by Professor Li on "archetypes," crystal cubes with highly unusual molecular properties. Yun and Haberu begin following unusual tracks in the forest and discover the partially-consumed remains of the dead Rodan. They encounter freelance journalist Kai Takehiro, who has been tracking a new, unknown creature. Mei and Pelops II decipher Yun’s code, and conclude that the "archetypes" could not have been created in the normal universe.

The fishermen are rescued from the serpents, nicknamed Manda by the media. Professor Li confirms Mei's suspicions involving the properties of the archetypes, and reveals that she acquired the information from someone named Professor Ashihara. Meanwhile, a survey team led by Professor Li's colleague BB visits a cavern in India containing a "lake" of red dust, but is interrupted by the emergence of another monster, Salunga, and escapes before the cavern is sealed again. Yun, Haberu, and Kai cross paths with two hunters, who later encounter Anguirus. The hunters shoot at Anguirus, who escapes unharmed. The archetypes seem to be made from the red dust, which can only be mined in a few locations around the world. Rodans are reported all around the world, while the emergences of the other monsters add to the panic. Yun deduces that Anguirus can foresee the short-term future by vibrating its spines to create an energy field that deflects bullets. An operation is carried out to capture Anguirus, which grows larger. Gen, an old colleague of Gorō's, tries to kill Anguirus with a harpoon gun, to no avail. Piloting a fully-repaired Jet Jaguar, Gorō then joins the fight. | |||||

Rodans descend on New York. Mei begins looking into Ashihara's research from the 1960s and finds a reference to something called the "Orthogonal Diagonalyzer," before being approached by government agent Yukie Konoko, who unknowingly helps her realize that the archetypes can bend and distort the fabric of spacetime. Intrigued by this, Professor Li invites Mei to join her for a trip to London. In Japan, Gorō and Jet Jaguar continue their battle with Anguirus, who overpowers Jet Jaguar and then defeats a team of soldiers. Gorō borrows Gen's harpoon gun, with which Jet Jaguar fires at Anguirus from point-blank range to bypass its precognition, seemingly killing it. In Tokyo Bay, a military fleet intercepts the Mandas, which they discover are being pursued by a bigger monster. Anguirus regains consciousness, having only been wounded by the harpoon, and goes on a rampage. Gorō pilots Jet Jaguar against Anguirus, who decapitates the robot. Gorō is knocked unconscious. Yun uses his AI Naratake, to bring Jet Jaguar back online, and pilots it back into the fight. Jet Jaguar fires another point-blank harpoon into Anguirus's head and kills it, breaking off one of its spikes in the process. However, the explosion knocks Yun unconscious. | |||||

The new giant monster is Godzilla, a mythical beast prophesied to bring about the Apocalypse. Godzilla and the Mandas reach Tokyo, where the former kills a Manda, adopts an amphibious form, and leaves the water. Mei and Professor Li theorize that the archetypes have an extra-dimensional structure; they are mined from Singular Points, which are rare mineral veins. Rodans enter Tokyo, spreading more red dust. The archetypes are made from the dust, and Ashihara predicted that the monsters would emerge from it. Only the thirteenth and final phase of the archetypes, the "Orthogonal Diagonalyzer," can neutralize the dust and stop the monsters. Gorō uses Anguirus's broken spike to create a spear for Jet Jaguar to confront Godzilla. Satō returns to Misakioku and discovers that the song broadcast originates from the Godzilla skeleton there, but is knocked unconscious by Kai. BB returns to the containment facility built over the cavern in India, where Salunga breaks free using a storm of red dust. BB activates a prototype of the Diagonalyzer, which causes the dust to crystallize into spikes that impale Salunga, trapping it again. Yun fully converts Naratake into a piloting system for Jet Jaguar. | |||||

It releases a cloud of red dust that covers Tokyo. With another bombing run, the military attacks Godzilla, which now can reshape parts of its body into armor that withstands the blasts. Meanwhile, Yun theorizes that the Catastrophe might be due to the Singular Points becoming more numerous and unstable; Mei theorizes that Ashihara was trying to stop it from happening. She presents her conclusions to Li, Li's colleague Michael Steven, BB, and BB's superior Tilda, who do not believe that the Catastrophe will happen, and are more concerned with developing Ashihara's time-bending technology. They are later attacked by Rodans, who kill Li while Mei is forced to flee. Meanwhile, Salunga disappears from the Shiva facility. Gorō and Haberu rescue the trapped civilian from the Kumongas' web, who flee while Jet Jaguar covers them.

He grew up in a fishing village which was destroyed by a monster similar to Godzilla. The monster was eventually killed, and Ashihara purchased the Misakioku facility to conceal and study its skeleton. The coded times and dates correspond to messages that Yu and Mei exchanged regarding the archetypes and the Catastrophe. In India, Mei is greeted by Lina, BB's daughter, who escorts her to the Shiva Consortium's headquarters. Salunga escapes from the Shiva facility via a cave network, surfaces in a village nearby and begins rampaging through it, generating a storm of red dust.

Mei, BB, Lina, and Pelops II access the Shiva containment facility from below. When Ashihara's supercomputer was first tested twenty years earlier, it resulted in an explosion. The explosion may have happened because the supercomputer created a brief portal to the time of the Catastrophe. Ashihara disappeared after the explosion, having supposedly died in the blast. In Tokyo, dangerous plant life grows from the red dust. The Otaki team spot a military convoy headed by Konoko, which is attacked by Rodans, but Jet Jaguar rescues them. Konoko gives the Diagonalyzer to Yun. Mei said that Yun may be the only person who knows how to use it, but he needs the activation code before he can do so. The team realize that the coordinates given for the arrival of Mei's next message match the current location of Godzilla, which is resting at Tokyo Station and grew to 100 meters in height. Mei's team reaches the contained Singular Point beneath the facility, but the space-time distortion caused by the Point begins to expand, and BB discovers that the number of possible futures are multiplying because the Catastrophe will occur in three hours. On the surface, Salunga breaks free of the spikes and begins moving towards the Shiva facility. Pelops II also begins multiplying due to the growing number of possible futures, before going offline. The broadcast song begins playing again, this time coming from the supercomputer, as glowing moths[a] fly over Tokyo. | |||||

Salunga breaks into the Shiva facility, descends into the cavern, and begins destroying the seal around the Singular Point. The song is a coded message sent from the future. Pelops II discovers its true meaning and sends it to Yun before the supercomputer explodes, seemingly destroying Pelops II. In Tokyo, Godzilla kills the Rodans. Jet Jaguar receives the upgrade code and grows to a giant size. The robot's new controlling intelligence is an AI system from the future, a descendant of Pelops II and Naratake, which was broadcasting its own code back through time using the song. Using its atomic ray, Godzilla destroys Jet Jaguar, which triggers a Diagonalyzer explosion that converts the red dust into harmless crystals. Salunga is impaled and frozen in place by the crystals, while Godzilla disappears. Michael and Kai later oversee the conversion of the Godzilla skeleton from Misakioku into a weaponized robot,[b] when they are joined by an aged Ashihara. |
