Introduction of the Original Story
There’s a secret place where humans haven’t entered.
It’s where Kaiju can live naturally and peacefully.

In the place that is cut off from any industrialization, time flows quietly without Kaiju having to fight against humans, but can just live normally with each other.
One day, an “Unbalance Zone” appears and opens a portal from this secret world to the human world.
At the same time, a portal also opens in the human world, where a boy unintentionally drove into it.

Away from his parents on a summer camp, the boy drifted through time and space, and landed into the world “Kaiju no Sumika”.
He looked back, but the portal is closed.
This was the beginning of an adventure, where there is no way back…
