In an industrial district of Tokyo, Ichiro Miki lives with his family. The small boy is a self-identified monster fan. He gleefully imitates monster roars for what seems to be his sole childhood friend, a girl named Saichiko. Unfortunately, Ichiro is often subject to bullying from Gabara and his gang. Gabara, another school kid, bullies the smaller boy over items Ichiro finds. These items fuel the child's limitless imagination in sometimes surprising ways. Sadly, both of Ichiro's parents frequently work long hours. This results in the boy spending time with a local toy consultant, Shinpei Inami. Despite Shinpei's kindness, Ichiro still longs for his family, and loses himself in his imagination. Using a small radio and the vivid spectrum of his imagination, Ichiro decides to take off for Monster Island. Soaring to the island by jet, the boy witnesses Godzilla fight a menagerie of monsters. During the course of his adventure, he befriends Minilla, the son of Godzilla. The creature is able to alter it's size, choosing to take a human-like size to communicate with Ichiro. The boy soon discovers that Minilla is suffering from his own bully, a creature that is also called Gabara. As Minilla tries to build up courage to face his bully, Ichiro drifts in and out of reality and his imagination...
