GameraAttack of Legion , Gamera Ts Region Shrai? , lit. GameraLegion Invasion, also known as GameraAdvent of Legion is a 1996 Kaiju film directed by Shusuke Kaneko. It is a sequel to Gamera Guardian of the Universe and the tenth Gamera film in the series. The film introduces the Legion, a race of insectoid extraterrestrials that invade the Earth, prompting Gamera to come to the planets defense. It was followed by the sequel, GameraAwakening of Irys.

The meteor has carried with it a species of extraterrestrials. These aliens have set up a hive in the bowels of the citys subway tunnels, deliberately nurturing the plants that are covering the city. Soon a gigantic pod erupts from a building and Colonel Watarase of the Self Defense Force realizes that it is dramatically raising the citys oxygen levels. Working together with the swiftminded Miss Honami, he realizes that the aliens are building a huge biological launchpad the increased oxygen will aid the creatures in exploding the flower, catapulting its seed into space so that they can colonize yet another world. The military can only watch helplessly, as any attempt to destroy the plant would destroy all of Sapporo.Just as all hope is lost, Gamera flies from the sea and heads toward the besieged city. He tears the flower out by its roots, but is ambushed by a swarm of the alien soldiers. As Gamera thrashes to rid himself of the attacking insects, a nearby soldier names them Legion, after a Biblical demon army. Gamera is forced to retreat, just as the monstrous queen Legion bursts out of the ground and flies off to start a second hive. Her wings are damaged by fighter jets but she survives. Again a Legion flower blooms, this time in Sendai, and again Gamera attempts to stop its explosion. He is intercepted, however, by Legion. The mother Legion makes short work of Gamera, impaling him with her sharp legs and blasting him with her horn beam. Sensing the detonation of her pod approaching, Legion leaves Gamera for dead and burrows off. Gamera limps toward the plant, destroying it by knocking it down before it launches its seed into space. The flower explodes and completely annihilates Sendai and seemingly killing Gamera. ........
