With his new camera in hand, Shinnosuke can enjoy his summer vacation in the beautiful Assou fields and mountains to the fullest. The scenery is even crawling with creatures that he would never find in Kasukabe. And there are townspeople to help and new friends to make. That said...don't these kids look an awful lot like the ones he knows from home? One cool summer night, Shinnosuke witnesses a giant creature outlined against the light of a full moon. Next to the creature is a strange man with a wide smile. It's the same weird man who gave him the camera at the station... And he calls himself the Evil Professor. Following this encounter more and more strange things start to happen around Assou...
