1. Dracalon, the Great Sea Monster
Shipwrecked, Daisaku (Johnny Sokko) and Juro Minami (an agent forUnicorn) drift to an island and are captured by the BF gang. The island is in fact, a base of the B.F. gang. They happen to discover a huge robot while they are running away. Giant Robot is being constructed by Dr. Gartua who is aware of the wicked project to conquer the earth by the B.F. gang. Dr. Gartua explains that Giant Robot works by atomic energy and only obeys the person who gives the original order. When Dr. Gartua tries to destroy the robot, his lab is destroyed. From the ruins Giant Robot stands up. Daisaku speaks to it and it is decided that he is the one who can control it.

2. Nucleon, the Magic Globe
Emperor Guillotine, king of BF syndicate, plans to take back Giant Robot and to arrest Daisaku (Johhny Sokko), the only one that can give orders to the robot. He sends a huge magic metal globe called Glober to the earth. Then he orders Spider, head of the BF Japanese branch, to arrest the boy and the robot when they come to destroy it. The globe falls to the top of Mt. Makone and starts to roll down the mountain toward the town. The tank corps of the Defense Force attackit in vain and town people are thrown into confusion. Carrying a small rocket on his back, Daisaku comes flying to the town and calls Giant Robo.

3. Gargoyle Vine, a Space Plant
Under Emperor Guillotine's orders, Dr. Over, a leading member of BF Syndicate, comes to the earth with a fossil of a devilish space plant called Satan Rose. He kidnaps Yasui, an old botantist. In the underground laboratory Over tells him to bring the seed of the plant back to life. As Yasui refuses, the doctor performs an operation on his brains. Now as Over's slave, Yasui obeys his orders. The fossil breaks into two and a small black bud starts to grow. Put in a building and destroys it. People are struck with terror and run about helter-skelter.
