Features: In 1866, a monster identified as a narwhal was discovered at sea. French biologist Professor Aronnax accepts an invitation to join the hunt. During the pursuit, he unfortunately falls into the water and swims to the back of the monster. It turns out that the monster is not a narwhal but a marvelously constructed submarine. Captain Nemo invites him on an underwater journey. They set sail from the Pacific, passing through coral islands, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Mediterranean, and into the Atlantic, witnessing many rare sea creatures, plants, and strange underwater scenes, while also experiencing numerous dangers. Finally, when the submarine reaches the coast of Norway, Aronnax leaves without hesitation, revealing the underwater secrets he knew to the world.
