Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

The past few days have been a celebration for Gaia/Gaia shippers.

Ultraman Gaia, Episode 12, "The Beast Encirclement".

The orc Ulfgas was captured by aliens and transformed into a gas monster, growing to enormous size by absorbing natural gas.

Ultraman Agul appears and prepares to kill him with the "Photon Crusher".

I, on the other hand, believed that Ulfgas was also a victim and could not bear to kill him, so he transformed into Gaia to stop Agul.

This is the first direct confrontation between Gaia and Agul, both of whom have their own ideologies.

The viewers in the live chat were extremely excited.

"It's here! It's here! It's here!! Gaia and Agul's first direct confrontation!!"

"Are you crazy?? You're standing in front of a monster to protect it?? That's a monster, bro!!"

"But Ulfgas didn't attack first... Look at its eyes, they don't look like it wants to fight at all."

"Agul's starting move was aimed at killing, while Gaia was aimed at stopping the killing—the first fight between the two Ultramen was actually due to a clash of ideologies rather than mutual dislike, which immediately elevates the narrative level."

Fujimiya: I'm going to kill this monster. Imu: But it's crying for help! Fujimiya: I can't hear it. Imu: Then I'll make sure you can hear it even if you can't!

In the scene, Gaia and Agul continue their standoff.

Two giants stood on either side of Ulfgas, one red and one blue. White steam from the tank area surged and rose between them, cutting their figures into silhouettes of light and shadow.

"Get out of the way."

Agul spoke.

"It didn't attack humans!"

Gaia responded.

Two wills collided in the air.

Although there were no sparks or explosions, the audience all felt an invisible pressure.

The comments section fell silent for a brief moment.

"This is the core conflict between Gaia and Agul. I believe that every life has the potential to be saved, while Fujimiya believes that threats must be eliminated. There is no right or wrong, only who is stronger and who is weaker."

"Fujimiya isn't cold-blooded; he learned from his mistakes and chose the most efficient path. Imu isn't a saint either; he genuinely believes that Earth chose humanity because humanity deserves to be chosen."

"One represents possibility, the other represents certainty; the foreshadowing of their fight was laid in the very first episode."

Gaia and Agul simultaneously took a half step back, beginning to gather their strength.

The photon ice blade and the photon crusher were used simultaneously.

Two beams of energy, one red and one blue, collided at the midpoint between the two.

"Holy crap, those waves are blinding! The budget for these special effects is visibly burning through!"

"So Gaia's ahoge beam can also be used by Agul! Ahoge beam clash!! Two Ultramen with long ahoge are having a beam battle online!!"

"What the hell is this 'cowlick against a wave'? Are you trying to make me laugh so hard I'll inherit my Alipay account?"

"This should be a shout-out to Dyna! Look at him! This is a proper head-to-head matchup! Unlike some player who loses just because he's on the right!"

"Why are you rubbing salt into Dyna's wounds again? He only lost by a tiny margin! Seriously, if Dyna himself were watching this video somewhere on Earth, wouldn't he feel like he'd been shot in the knee?"

Dyna: What did I do to deserve this? I just took the wrong side!

The two beams of energy collided and were eventually annihilated in the air.

draw!

After seeing the two beams of light disappear simultaneously, Gaia immediately lowered his center of gravity, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and prepared to face Agul's next attack.

But Agul did not charge straight at him.

He took a half step back, gathering his strength again—the starting stance of a liquidator!

However, Gaia did not back down when faced with Agul's settlers.

He also took a half step back to steady himself, spreading his arms out to his sides. Red energy flowed from the muscle lines all over his body and converged on his right arm.

This is the starting point for quantum streamlines!!!

"No, not again?!"

"Holy crap, that opening move! Quantum Stream and Resolver!! Both of them used their ultimate abilities!!"

"Dude? You're addicted to spraying water at each other? You guys are Ultraman, not two kids spraying each other with water guns in an alley!"

"Ulfgas: Stop! Stop fighting! You won't kill Ultraman like this..."

"Fight! Keep fighting! Fight until they're all bloodied and battered! I love watching Ultraman fight each other! It's a million times better than fighting monsters!!"

Both sides' energy levels have been accumulating and climbing to their peak.

Just a second before the two beams of light were about to be fired again, XIG made their move.

call out!call out!call out!

Three blasts capable of oxidizing cells were fired into Ulfgas's body, which vaporized and sealed him in the gas tank.

Seeing this, Gaia decisively stopped the quantum streamer from accumulating power and bent down to pick up the sealed jar.

He slightly bent his knees, glanced at the sky, and then suddenly pushed off the ground.

The ground beneath his feet exploded.

Gaia, clutching the gas cylinder, soared into the sky, hurtling towards the weightless depths of space.

Agul stood there, looking up as the red streak of light disappeared at the horizon.

The liquidator energy that had accumulated to a critical point in his right arm slowly dissipated.

Ultimately, Ulfgas was sent back to space, and Agul's transformation was deactivated.

The comments section fell silent for a brief moment.

"Agul didn't launch the Purifier in the end... He stopped, he acquiesced to Gaia sending Ulfgas away."

"Fujimiya is a really interesting person. He says the most ruthless things, is decisive and leaves no trouble behind, but at the last moment he chooses to stop."

"In my dream, I resolved a dispute between two people with a gas canister. Killing is not the only solution, nor is saving. Sending the threat to a place where no one is around is also a solution."

"This is probably why Fujimiya was willing to back down: Gaia wasn't simply 'opposing him,' Gaia offered a viable alternative."

But everyone knows that the conflict between Gamu and Fujimiya will not end so simply.

Ulfgas was just the first point of contention; bigger ones were yet to come.

As the ending theme of episode 12 played in the background, the comments section continued to be flooded with messages. Discussions about Ulfgas, screenshots of Gaia and Agul's first energy blast, and memes of Fujimiya's final turn were all widely shared.

But the story is far from over.

Yang Qian sat in his office, the glowing comments on the screen dancing across his face.

He gently swiped the mouse across the screen and clicked play for episode 13.

No one can predict which direction the road will bend next.
