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

A week has passed in the blink of an eye.

The countdown on major streaming platforms reached zero on time, and episode 41 of "Ultraman Mebius" was released as scheduled amidst the anticipation of countless tokusatsu viewers.

The title of this episode appeared in the center of the screen—"The Teacher in My Memories".

[Episode 41, check-in on time!]

[A teacher from my memories? The title makes it sound like everyday school life.]

[Damn it, there wasn't even a preview for the next episode!]

Who knows, there might be a surprise inside.

[It's already in post-production, almost finished.]

The main feature screen lights up.

Neon lights.

On a small town street in the early morning, a mother stood in front of her door, watching the two people leave with a grateful smile.

Standing outside the door was a thin, middle-aged man named Tsukamoto, dressed in a sweater and casual clothes. He was a teacher at Sakuragaoka Junior High School, and beside him was a dejected boy named Umi.

Good morning.

"Thank you so much, teacher," the mother said, pressing her palms together in gratitude.

Tsukamoto waved his hand gently: "Not at all, not at all."

"Okay, everyone's been waiting for you with concern."

Xiao Hai slowly took a few steps, while his mother waved from behind.

Tsukamoto bid farewell to Koumi:

"Then we're leaving."

The two walked side by side through the streets. As they walked, Xiao Hai stopped, lowered his head, and resisted moving forward.

Tsukamoto stopped and turned around.

Xiao Hai bit his lip and muttered softly, "At this point, there's no other way but to go to school."

Instead of scolding the students for their negative emotions, Tsukamoto smiled.

He placed his shoulder bag on the side of the road, braced his hands on the ground, and deftly did a handstand.

Xiao Hai was stunned on the spot.

Standing upside down, Tsukamoto said casually, "Doing this gives me the feeling of being able to support the Earth."

Xiao Hai blinked: "It supported the Earth?"

"Even teachers have refused to go to school before."

"Have teachers done that too?"

"Yes." Tsukamoto rolled back to the ground, dusted off his hands, and looked at the boy intently.

"That's how the teacher who came to pick me up told me."

"It's not difficult at all, you just need a little bit of courage."

【? ? ? 】

【etc!!!】

[Holy crap! He lifted the Earth upside down with both hands! A famous scene from Eddie II!]

[Holy crap! I recognize him! Isn't that Tsukamoto kid?!]

[Nobuo Tsukamoto, a student of Takeshi Yago!]

[Amazing! They actually got the original actors back!!!]

[Could it be a tribute?]

[Back then, Takeshi Ya used this same trick to pick up Tsukamoto from school when he was skipping class. Now that Tsukamoto is a teacher, he's using the same method to teach his students!]

But Tsukamoto, your teacher really could lift the Earth!

The hesitation in Xiaohai's eyes faded, and he followed Tsukamoto to the school gate.

Several companions immediately came up to him: "Good morning, good morning!"

"Good morning!"

"morning!"

Tsukamoto smiled with relief: "It's you guys."

The companions pulled Xiao Hai up:

"We've come to pick him up on behalf of the whole class. Xiao Hai, hurry up and go to the classroom, everyone's waiting for you."

"Let's go then." Xiao Hai smiled brightly and stepped through the gate with his companions.

Good morning, teacher!

"Good morning." Tsukamoto watched them walk into the campus.

The camera pans across the school gate—Sakuragaoka Junior High School (Japanese)

That was the place where Mr. Takeshi Ya first taught half a century ago.

[This atmosphere is so lovely!]

The teacher who just appeared is Eddie's most troublesome student.

Nurturing character and shaping hearts: those heartfelt words from back then remain as relevant as ever...

The cycle of educational transmission has come to a close at this moment; it brings tears to my eyes!

The child who skipped school back then has become a kind and gentle teacher.

The scene suddenly zooms out to the cold, deep expanse of space.

A whooshing sound shattered the silence as Roberuga II, a disc-shaped creature created by Alien Empera from the remains of Planet Black, fled wildly through the sea of ​​stars, relentlessly pursued by Ultraman Ace!

During the pursuit, Eddie concentrated his light energy and unleashed the Ultra Spiral Beam, which struck Roberuga II with deadly force.

The severely damaged monster crashed out of control and plummeted towards Earth, crashing onto a remote, uninhabited island in the Pacific Ocean.

Eddie followed closely behind, penetrating the atmosphere and descending.

Get into the starting stance!

The background music is also the classic Eddie theme song!

Ultraman Ace!!!

[Hello, teacher!]

【The Almighty King of Showa! ! ! 】

[The sound effects at the start of this fight really brought tears to my eyes!]

The teacher's background music truly has an uplifting power!

The battle erupted instantly!

Roberto Luca II launched a fierce counterattack, unleashing a dense barrage of shuriken beams from his body. The intense firepower forced Eddie into a passive and arduous battle.

In the critical moment, a streak of red and silver light shot through the air!

Ultraman Mebius arrives from the sky to provide support!

The two Ultra Warriors worked together seamlessly, with Ultraman Ace's powerful punches combined with Ultraman Mebius's sharp kicks, forcing Roberga II to retreat step by step.

Unable to withstand the direct attack, Roberto Luga II flapped his wings and soared into the air, attempting to reverse the tide of battle with a dense beam of light.

Eddie gave it no chance at all. He made a grasping motion in the air with his right hand, and the blazing Ultra Light Spear was hurled out, instantly piercing through the monster's chest!

"Drink!"

Eddie spread his arms and unleashed the Sakushuum Ray, while Mebius simultaneously fired the Mebium Ray!

The two violent beams of light converged, and with a deafening roar, Roberuga II was instantly blasted into countless fragments!

In the sunlight, the two giants looked at each other and nodded.

[A just two-on-one fight!]

[Instead of transforming into a teacher to educate students, we'll teach you how to be a person!]

[Pan Changjiang, Ultraman!]

Teacher: Xiaomeng, the monster-fighting game is too complicated; you might not be able to handle it.

If Eddie's costume were a bit cooler, his popularity would probably be even higher.

The teacher's downfall was due to the costume; otherwise, his TV performance would definitely have been more popular.

Eddie is alright, not ugly at all, he's actually kind of cute!

[But why did Eddie suddenly chase the monster back to Earth?]

Now that the veteran actors are making their appearance, does this mean it's really time to wrap things up?

After the battle subsided, Future returned to Phoenix Nest, the Asian headquarters base, and explained the situation to his teammates.

"Negative energy?"

Tang Zheping was somewhat puzzled.

Future Explanation:

"Yes, it's said that it's possible for it to reappear on Earth."

George continued, "The disc-shaped creatures appeared while we were investigating this."

Aihara Ryuya came over:

"So Ultraman Ace came after him, right?"

Tang Zheping quickly retrieved the old files on the control panel: "Records of negative energy have been confirmed in the UGM files. Negative energy is considered to be the fluctuation of the dark side of the human heart, and it is generally believed that evil monsters are summoned from it. However..."

Everyone pressed, "But what?"

Tang Zheping sighed, "To this day, we still haven't come up with any results and can't draw any definitive conclusions."

Kinoko sighed softly, "There's nothing more unfathomable than the human heart."

Fifty years have passed, and the scientific community still cannot fully explain negative energy.

[Old Thief: I haven't figured out how to explain this yet, I'm not thinking about it anymore.]

[The monsters Eddie fought were incredibly diverse; his negative energy could summon all sorts of monsters.]

The generation of negative energy is normal, but its excessive accumulation is not.

Human nature is inherently complex and unpredictable; how could there be an absolute formula?

[UGM's database seems to contain the last set of Defense Force data before Ultraman Mebius.]

On a sunny street, a small truck with the words "Harada Store" printed on it was parked by the roadside. A middle-aged man wearing a work apron got out of the truck. He was Katsukichi, who was known as "Supermarket" back then.

On the other side, commuters on bicycles also stopped in front of the school gate; that was the rakugo of their grown-up selves.

Katsuyoshi greeted him: "Hey, rakugo."

Rakugo, leaning on his bicycle, sighed, "This school will soon be gone."

Katsukichi sighed, "Yeah, they said they'd merge with the schools in the nearby neighborhood. It's really disappointing."

Rakugo waved his hand and laughed, "How can you be considered an outsider? We are students who graduated from here."

Just as Tsukamoto was about to offer some advice, he froze upon seeing their faces: "W-what's wrong?"

Rakugo's eyes widened: "Aren't you Tsukamoto?"

Tsukamoto exclaimed in delight, "Yes, that's right! You're a rakugo performer!"

The rakugo speaker pointed to the side and said, "You are Katsukichi!"

Shengji wiped his sweat and laughed heartily, "What a coincidence! It brings back so many memories!"

Shengji exclaimed, "That startled me!"

Tsukamoto scratched his head: "I just took office last month, and then I immediately encountered students who didn't come to class."

Rakugo teased without any restraint, "This is the retribution for making Yagami-sensei worry."

Tsukamoto couldn't help but laugh: "Yes."

Time flies! They've all grown up!

[Hahaha, old classmates meeting up and immediately digging into each other's past!]

[Rakugo, the story of a child who liked to lie and play pranks!]

[Shengji, this fat guy is that rebellious boy from back in the day whose family owned a supermarket and who used to rollerblade on the street!]

The characters with lines are basically Eddie's students back then. Those without lines are probably just there to make up the numbers (doge)

The three walked into the classroom of their former Class 1-E.

Sunlight streamed onto the tables and chairs. Shengji sighed, "How nostalgic! Doctor, Fang Shun, Zhenyi, how are they doing now?"

In my memory, Mr. Takeshi Yagami's voice and appearance from fifty years ago remain unchanged.

Rakugo sat down and sighed, "Time really flies. We've all become old men."

Katsuyoshi looked at the podium: "What is Ya's teacher doing now? He suddenly disappeared from our sight one day, so he left a deeper impression on us than the other teachers."

Tsukamoto's expression was unusually serious: "Yes. Ya's teacher is Ultraman Ace."

Rakugo Kazukichi was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

Rakugo waved his hand and laughed, "What are you saying! You're still saying that even now!"

Tsukamoto said earnestly, "Laugh if you want, I have no doubt about it."

Shengji slapped his thigh and suggested, "Okay, before this school is demolished, let's have a class reunion!"

The rakugo speaker agreed, saying, "Great idea to have a class reunion!"

Katsukichi looked at Tsukamoto: "Let's bring as many people as possible. Is it alright if we borrow this classroom?"

Tsukamoto agreed: "It will work perfectly."

Katsuyoshi said expectantly, "Okay, it's settled then. I hope Ya's teacher can come too."

[Tsukamoto's unwavering belief, unwavering for decades, that his teacher was Edison is so touching!]

[In episode 2 of Eddie, Tsukamoto saw Takeshi Yagami transform into Eddie, but no one believed him.]

[A final class reunion before the school's demolition—the students from back then are finally all together!]

Can we get everyone together by chasing the light?

[After all, 50 years have passed, but if they can all be gathered together, then this episode can only be called the most amazing tribute ever!]

The truant became a teacher, the child who hated the family supermarket inherited it, and the child who lied ended up working at a credit union.

Meanwhile, at the Asian headquarters base.

"In the future, I'll bring your brother's soft vinyl record!"

Ryu Aihara walked through the door, holding a soft vinyl figure of Ultraman Ace in his hand.

[How did Aihara Ryu become Hipporito?]

Why isn't this soft vinyl item made of recycled material? Is it genuine?

[There's paintwork on the back!!! This isn't an authentic copy!]

Marina said, "Just now, I observed fluctuations similar to negative energy in Tokyo."

"Although it's just a slight fluctuation, it might contain the power to summon monsters."

Captain Sakaki smiled: "Not only that, but his older brother's advice is also very important to him."

It turns out that Mirai had already arrived at Sakuraoka Junior High School to verify the situation.

He patrolled the corridor with a portable device but found no high-energy threat.

Just as they stepped out of the classroom, the three of them ran into Mirai.

Upon seeing the orange uniform, Tsukamoto stepped forward and asked, "Are you from GUYS?"

Future nodded: "Yes, is there anything unusual?"

Tsukamoto shook his head: "Nothing's wrong."

In the future, she politely said goodbye: "I see. Then I'll take my leave."

He had only taken two steps when Tsukamoto quickly caught up and stopped him, asking urgently, "Wait a minute! Excuse me, do you know Mr. Takeshi Yagami, who was a member of UGM?"

Rakugo frowned and pulled him aside: "Why did you bring up UGM?"

Tsukamoto excitedly explained, "Ya's teacher teaches while also working as a member of UGM!"

Rakugo performer Katsuyoshi was stunned: "Are you serious?!"

Tsukamoto nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I heard it from the child of a former UGM player at the school where I used to work."

Tsukamoto looked at the future with anticipation: "Is that so? Could you tell me where Ya's teacher is now?"

Faced with three middle-aged students longing to reunite, the future, who knew everything, stood frozen in place, caught in a dilemma:

"Well..."

In the corridor, the future's hesitant expression met the eager gazes of three former students.
