Falso documental que sigue el día a día de Daisato, un hombre aparentemente ordinario, divorciado y con una hija a la que apenas ve, cuya vida discurre tranquila... hasta que las autoridades se ven obligadas a llamarle. Porque Daisato es Dainipponjin, un superhéroe dedicado a salvar a su país de la invasión de los monstruos que histórica (y cinematográficamente) han amenazado con su destrucción. Pero la gente parece haberse cansado de él. Debut en el cine del prestigioso cómico japonés Hitoshi Matsumoto (director y protagonista del film), convertido en las dos últimas décadas en una de las principales referencias del humor japonés, que ha revolucionado con sus innovadores espectáculos.
