...]

The rousing opening theme is accompanied by a scene of the Night Raid team members ascending rapidly in an elevator.

The perfect synchronization between the music and the camera gave the audience goosebumps instantly.

"This opening theme... is amazing! It gives me goosebumps!"

"This is so damn exciting! It feels even more thrilling than 'Miracle Again,' it's like being back in Ultraman Tiga!"

"I have a bad feeling... Is Nexus going to absorb everyone's light again, like in the final episode of Ultraman Tiga?"

"Yamete! Ultraman Tiga still owes me Hikaru!"

"Tiga: You just said it was light, right? Cha—!!!"

Episode 1: Night Raid

A gas station late at night.

A liquid alien beast, Pedron, suddenly appeared and attacked gas station staff and customers.

The alarm went off.

"Whoosh—Bang!"

Three blue-white energy beams accurately struck the alien beast's limbs.

Sparks flew as the alien beast let out a sharp screech.

"This is the Night Raid Team, target spotted."

Soon, the alien beasts were driven to the designated killing location.

"Fire freely, ensure the target is completely destroyed, and avoid information leakage."

Under heavy firepower, the alien beast was killed by the Night Raid Team.

"Target eliminated."

He reported to Cang.

"It has been confirmed that the response team will arrive on site in 37 seconds."

The voice of the TLT operations officer came through the communicator.

The live chat exploded.

"Holy crap?! The defense force swiftly annihilated the alien beast? That's incredible?!"

"This defense team... no, this night raid team's strength and equipment completely overwhelm the previous teams!"

"And the division of labor is very clear! Combat teams are responsible for elimination, and there are also special disposal teams for cleanup. What the hell is memory erasure? It's terrifying to think about!"

"With such a strong team, Nexus is practically unstoppable! They'll just get carried to victory!"

"Hey, that's what you call professional.jpg"

Mission accomplished, the night raid team prepares to withdraw.

Before boarding the plane, team member Shiori Hiraki subconsciously glanced back at the tunnel exit.

In a daze, she seemed to see a man in a black leather jacket standing there, quietly watching everything.

But when she blinked.

There was no one there.

"Hallucination?"

Screen transition.

Komon Kazuki, 24 years old, is a member of the mountain rescue team.

He is about to marry his girlfriend, Riko Saida.

During a mountain rescue mission, they encountered severe weather and the ropes started to sway.

Komon is suddenly overcome by the psychological trauma of his childhood drowning, and falls into extreme panic in mid-air, almost causing the rescue to fail.

Although he was eventually pulled back by his colleagues, this mistake left him with a huge psychological scar.

Afterwards, he received an envelope, which he assumed was a termination notice.

Frustrated, he opened it only to find a medical examination notice requiring him to go to a designated location at a specific time.

Following instructions, Gu Men arrived in the wilderness, only to be forcibly taken away by a mysterious person, blindfolded, and sent to a secret facility.

There, he was strapped to an operating table and subjected to mysterious tests.

The blinding shadowless lights and the various incomprehensible instruments all around.

The researchers, dressed in white coats, recorded the data with expressionless faces.

"Subject file: No. 107".

"Value: 73."

"The tests will cover reactions K02 through K52."

"R7 sex factor, immune assessment, positive 87, negative 0"

Gu Men struggled, "Wait, I... what are you all...?"

Before Gu Men could even ask any questions, he was knocked unconscious by the electric shock.

Three days later, Matsunaga, the commander of the TLT Far East branch, appeared.

"Congratulations, Kazuki Komon."

"You have been chosen to join TLT, the most advanced defense organization for humanity."

The comments section was completely buzzing.

"Here they come! Nexus's human form has arrived!"

"Wait a minute, this TLT thing is getting weirder and weirder! Who kidnaps people for human experimentation and then forces them into the army? Even the TAC team doesn't do that."

"This TLT doesn't seem like a good person..."

"I think that guy in the leather jacket at the beginning was suspicious! What kind of good person would be standing at the tunnel entrance in the middle of the night? He might be the one who attracted that alien beast!"

"So, the man in the leather jacket is the villain, and Komon is the hero? This is a dual-male protagonist rivalry setup? I like it!"

On their way to TLT headquarters, Komon encountered an empty bus stopped in the middle of the mountain road.

Meanwhile, Jun Himeya was running through the mountains and fields.

He stopped, took out the Evolution Trustee from his pocket, and looked at its shimmering light.

"What exactly do you want me to do?"

On the other side of the gate, he got off the bus and went to check the empty bus.

Backpacks, cell phones, and even half-empty bottles of water were scattered on the seats.

But there was no one.

There wasn't a single person there.

It was as if all the passengers had evaporated in an instant.

Something's not right...

A chill ran down my spine.

He was about to back away—

"Splash!!!"

A strange beast suddenly appeared and wrapped itself around him with its tentacles.

"Ugh—!!!"

A feeling of suffocation washed over me.

The cold, the darkness, and the fear of water engulfing their mouths and noses resurfaced.

The childhood memory of drowning is intertwined with the suffocation of reality.

He is going to die.

right here.

"Ri...ko..."

Consciousness began to fade.

"Don't give up!"

It was a matter of life and death.

"Bang--!!!"

A dazzling red light descended from the sky, shattering the alien beast along with its tentacles.

In the light, the silver giant slowly raised his hand.

A streamlined body, a V-shaped energy core, and milky white eyes.

Ultraman Nexus.

This was the first encounter between Komon and Nexus.

He stared blankly at all of this.

"Am I dreaming?"

Episode 1, End.

At this moment, the viewers in front of the screen were stunned.

"?????????"

"No?! The human form is that guy in the leather jacket?!"

"Holy crap! I watched the whole episode! I thought Komon was the main character! And you're telling me his human form is that leather-clad guy from the beginning?!"

"Alright, alright! So this is how it's going to be acted, huh! A whole episode to build up an ordinary person, and then at the last minute you tell them, 'You guessed wrong!'"

"Ah Guang: Didn't expect that, did you? I didn't expect it either. (doge emoji)"

"No! Guangda would never create meaningless plot points! Komon definitely has a close connection with Nexus! Don't forget that Ultraman Ace also transformed through a fusion!"

"Hiss—! Thinking about it this way, two men merging into one Ultraman...it feels kind of philosophical (laughs)."

"Is it possible... that the man in the leather jacket died in the end, and then Komon inherited his transformation device?"

"Come on! This is Ultraman! Not Puella Magi Madoka Magica! How could the human host possibly die?"

"Exactly! Don't scare yourself! It's probably a dual-personality setup, or the leather-clad guy is from the previous generation and is training Komon to be his successor."

Office of the Land of Light.

Yang Qian smiled as he looked at the confident comments in the comment section.

Su Xiaoran stood to the side, also looking at the comments.

"Director Yang, it seems that the audience all believe that Ultraman's human form cannot die."

"They felt that Jun Himeya and Komon's relationship was at most one of succession."

Yang Qian picked up her thermos and took a sip of tea.

"indeed."

In everyone's understanding, Ultraman's human host is one with Ultraman, protected by light, and almost never truly dies.

At most, they will leave or return to their own planet.

He took a sip of tea, his gaze fixed on the solitary figure of Nexus frozen on the screen.

"but……"

"Ultraman Nexus, his human form, is more accurately called the 'fitter'."

"I never said that the adaptable... cannot die."

The skillful use of montage-style lies to create the misconception that the fittest will die is also an essential skill.

Ten minutes later, episode two of Nexus continued.
