Dad! What happened to the world? / It all started in the Year of Godzilla. / What is Godzilla? Godzilla is a sea monster. Normally he doesn't bother us. But if we anger him, he destroys everything with a radioactive beam. / So Godzilla did it? / No, Godzilla never showed up. But in that year, people believed he would. Everyone was terrified.

It was on the news all day, every day. People believed it so deeply, nobody went to work, but hid in their home or basement. Factories stopped, traffic stopped, shops were emptied. There was no fuel or electricity anymore. By the end of the year, whoever was still alive, fled the cities. / So, they caused what they feared was going to happen? They destroyed the world themselves ... / Perhaps they didn’t like it very much.
