宇宙人東京に現わる
UFO's are suddenly seen around Tokyo. Because the aliens look like giant starfish they cannot approach humans without creating a major panic, so they chose a female member of their race to take human form of a popular female singer. She warns mankind that a meteor will crash on the earth. While the approaching meteor causes hotter and hotter weather, mankind runs and builds a last-chance anti-meteor weapon. (In Full Screen format)

The enormous popularity of Toho's giant monster films led Daiei studios to issue publicity stills showing the Pairans as gigantic creatures that towered over buildings. In the film, the Pairans are human-sized.

This was the first-color-tokusatsu science fiction film produced in Japan. It beat Toho's science fiction spectacle, Ishirô Honda's Chikyu Boeigun (1957) (the first tokusatsu film in widescreen), into theaters by a year.
