Entertainment: You're asked to make a graduation project, but you're asked to film Ultrama

The rugged Qingze Canyon.

It was not far from GUYS's position.

The wind howled between the cliffs.

The main subject of this scene is the future.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, a steady and powerful footstep sound slowly came from behind him.

Looking back with caution in the future.

In that instant, the camera slowly panned up, focusing on the face of the person who had just arrived—a face that Showa Oku fans knew by heart!

Kotaro Higashi, played by Saburo Shinoda, wears a gentle yet confident smile and gazes intently at the future.

The comments section went completely out of control and erupted in an instant!

[Holy crap?! Kotaro Higashi?!]

[I didn't get to see Mebius in the movie, but this time my dream came true! I actually got to meet Mebius's human form face-to-face!]

[Ahhh, Kotaro! He looks amazing!]

[He possesses both the spirited and vigorous air of a young man and the mature and composed demeanor of a respected elder!]

[Gu Nan, I'm crying my eyes out!]

[Regarding the sentimental aspect!]

In Gu Nan's personal opinion, even in the original world, he always felt that the most suitable and appropriate time for Higashi Kotaro to return was during "Ultraman Mebius".

The Showa-era actors were not too old at that time; they were in their prime, full of youthful vigor and possessing a mature and steady charm.

In the original world, the only time Saburo Shinoda actually attended a public event related to Tsuburaya Productions was during the later "Ultraman Taiga" era.

However, at that meet-and-greet, the appearance of the white-haired Saburo Shinoda alongside the actor who played Taiga's human form still felt somewhat incongruous.

In essence, it was just a business meeting that was forced together for the sake of a nominal "father and son" relationship.

What truly resonates most strongly with countless fans is the light-year-long mentor-student bond between Taro and Mebius.

In Gu Nan's view, the bond between Mebius and Kotaro Higashi should be the kind of mentor-student relationship that Mebius has with Ginga, where he is willing to impart all his knowledge to him, and even on an emotional level, it should far surpass that of Ginga!

This time, Gu Nan had the advantage of their previous collaboration on the theatrical version.

After gaining the old gentleman's approval, they successfully invited Saburo Shinoda back.

Using the AI ​​technology to restore their youthful appearance, the original Tsuburaya production team broke the regret that the two generations of Ultra Warriors could not meet in the main series, allowing their human forms to be watched across time on the cliff!

on the screen.

Looking at the familiar and imposing figure before him, Future's eyes were filled with disbelief, and his voice trembled slightly with excitement:

"You are...Taro...Instructor?!"

Kotaro Higashi strode over to Mirai's side, gazing gently at the young warrior before him:

"This is my face on Earth, it comes from a young man who once fought alongside me..."

"You did an excellent job in the future battles on Earth."

"But instructor, I..."

In the future, he lowered his head, his face full of self-reproach.

"I received orders from the captain... Facing the formidable enemy ahead, I don't even have the right to protect my comrades..."

Kotaro Higashi raised his hand and patted Mirai's shoulder heavily.

The warmth and weight emanating from his palm sent a shiver down my spine.

"When I first came to Earth, I was also confused and frustrated."

Kotaro gazed at the vast sky, his eyes filled with deep memories and longing:

"But this planet and humanity have taught us what the most important bond is."

"I understand how you feel, but right now your body must preserve its radiance."

As if sensing something, he recalled his previous feelings.

The scene flashes back to the ruins of a collapsed city, where Kotaro is beside Mirai, who is unconscious and dying. Kotaro quietly gets up and leaves before Aihara Ryu calls out to her and rushes to find Mirai.

"But... when I was unconscious before, I felt light energy being transmitted to me... it was you... your current state..."

Kotaro didn't say anything, withdrew his gaze, and his eyes suddenly became incredibly firm and sharp:

"With a formidable enemy ahead, we seniors cannot back down."

"Look to the future—this is the battle of the Ultra Warriors!"

"Now, I, your senior, will finish this war for you and take over the protection of this beautiful planet!"

Before he finished speaking, Kotaro Higashi raised his arm, took down and suddenly revealed the dazzling Ultra Badge!

"Taro—!!"

With that resounding shout, a dazzling red and gold light instantly tore through the dim sky!

The transformation scene was also produced according to new regulations.

Punctual and on time, without any deviation.

A flash of golden-red light!

With a heavy roar, the massive and cold metallic body of the peerless Iron God Impreza crashed heavily into the center of the canyon through the crack, stirring up clouds of dust.

Almost at the same time, a dazzling beam of colored light descended from the sky.

Ultraman Taro followed closely behind, crashing down in front of Impreza.

Looking at the enemy, Taro assumed a fighting stance.

Inside the fighter jet's cockpit, Aihara Ryu looked down at Taro and thought of Mebius, who had once fought alongside him.

"In the future, are you no longer on Earth...?"

Subsequently, Captain Sakaki gave the following order:

"Beyond the lifting of technology embargoes!"

"Phantom Flight Initiation!"

"Specium missile, launch!"

Flames spewed from the wings of the Goose Phoenix as several powerful Specium missiles roared out and struck precisely the ground behind Impreza's heels.

The violent explosion sent sparks flying from Impreza's lower body, and the impact with the soil beneath its feet caused the heavy steel behemoth to lose its balance and fall heavily to the ground.

The gravity deflectors deployed around the canyon activated instantly, and several green anti-gravity beams intertwined to form a large net, completely enveloping the fallen Impreza.

Is success imminent?

Pulled by the anti-gravity beam, the massive mechanical body began to rise rapidly into the sky, heading straight for the Leiden minefield outside the atmosphere.

"Go, go, go!" Zheping muttered to himself.

Just when everyone in the fighter jet thought they had succeeded.

Impreza, who was in mid-air, suddenly emitted an eerie light.

Immediately afterwards, its enormous body vanished into thin air amidst a spatial distortion!

"Disappeared? Where did it go?!"

In the command center, Tang Zheping stared intently at the radar screen, his face filled with disbelief: "They escaped the gravitational deflection disk using spatial displacement!"

This robot's performance completely defies common sense.

On the battlefield.

Impreza had already teleported behind Taro.

Without any hesitation, Impreza immediately opened fire with the triple Gatling gun in his face.

Taro reacted extremely quickly, immediately turning around to demonstrate his combat awareness, and then instantly unleashing a quick-cast version of the Strium Beam with both hands to block it.

The two energies collided violently in mid-air, bursting out with blinding light.

Seeing that the surprise attack had failed, Impreza simply unleashed his full firepower.

Its upper body began to spin rapidly like a top, and the two cannons on its shoulders and the Gatling gun on its head entered berserk mode.

Countless crimson shells and yellow lasers, like a shower of flowers, swept wildly in all directions, leaving no blind spots!

The entire Qingze Canyon was instantly transformed into a sea of ​​fire.

The mountain collapsed, sending debris flying through the air.

The ferocious barrage of firepower not only forced Taro to retreat repeatedly, but even the Phoenix Goose, which had activated its meteor technology and was attempting phantom flight in the sky, had no way to dodge.

The intense artillery fire struck the Goose Phoenix instantly. The fighter jet billowed black smoke, alarms blared in the cockpit, and it lost control, plummeting toward the edge of the canyon.

The makeshift ground command post was also hit by the aftershocks, with explosions occurring repeatedly.

Taro seized an opening in Impreza's spinning barrage, gathered energy in his arms once more, and unleashed a second high-intensity beam that forcefully cut into the barrage, striking Impreza's torso with tremendous force.

The immense impact finally jolted Impreza into a stupor, halting his spinning barrage.

Just then, Mirai, dressed in a GUYS uniform, arrived at the edge of the battlefield.

Looking at the devastated canyon and the crashed fighter jet, Future was extremely anxious and immediately raised his left wrist, wanting to summon the aura of Mebium to fight.

"Mebius!"

"What can you do with your current body?"

"I can't transform!"

Taro's majestic voice boomed in the future's mind.

Taro turned around and stared sternly at the future on the ground.

The future cried out unwillingly:

"But if it's two people fighting..."

Why do you think you were ordered to return?

Taro said in a deep voice:

"This is so that you can become stronger and return to the Land of Light to gather more power!"

"For the sake of an unpredictable battle!"

Looking at the wreckage of the crashed fighter jet in the distance, she thought of Ryu and her teammates...

At this moment, due to the plane crash, they were on the ground retaliating with advanced technology guns.

"Damn it, how dare you destroy our wings!"

Because of his arm injury, George could only rely on Aihara Ryu to use the Beyond Tech Gun to attack.

Just then, George spotted a figure on a distant mountaintop.

"Isn't that the future?!"

Marina's exceptional hearing also detected something.

"Who is he talking to?"

……

"But if this continues, Impreza will..."

"I'll use Ultraman to explode!"

Taro interrupted Future's words sharply.

Upon hearing this name, the future was filled with shock:

"What did you say?"

"Isn't that a dangerous technique you sealed away yourself?!"

"What if something goes wrong..."

The Ultra Bomb is one of the absolute forbidden techniques of the Land of Light.

The caster needs to completely detonate all the light energy in their body, perishing together with the enemy.

Consuming such enormous amounts of energy on Earth comes with an extremely high risk of death.

Don't underestimate me, Future!

Taro starts with zero frames:

"Ultra Bomb!"

Taro was instantly engulfed in flames, the intense heat completely enveloping his red body.

Without hesitation, he took a large stride, transforming into a giant fireball that slammed into Impreza, his arms tightly embracing the steel behemoth!

"boom--!!!"

A deafening roar echoed through the sky.

A massive fireball, so dazzling it was impossible to look directly at, exploded in the center of Qingze Canyon.

The devastating shockwave swept in all directions, instantly leveling the surrounding cliffs.

Under the violent explosion, the indestructible armor of the peerless iron god Impreza finally crumbled and was completely blown into a pile of broken copper and scrap iron scattered all over the ground.

As the smoke cleared, the red light spots coalesced once more into Taro.

Taro, having used this forbidden technique, also exhausted his energy.

The color timer on his chest flashed.

At this moment, Aihara Ryu and his teammates also arrived at Mirai's side.

Before I could say anything more, I saw the explosions on the battlefield.

Tang Zheping was shocked to see Taro engulfed in flames: "It's an Ultra Bomb!"

"We won... Ultraman Taro."

However, reality is often cruel.

In less than a few minutes, the Impreza metal fragments that had been scattered all over the ground began to emit a piercing scraping sound.

Under the desperate gaze of everyone, the fragments seemed to come alive, rapidly converging and reassembling towards the center!

Even with all his might, Taro's Ultra Bomb couldn't completely destroy this demonic machine!
