"Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy" Is So Damn Good!

"Don't waste your energy! No matter how desperate the situation, the light in the human heart will never be extinguished!"

"And the one who guides the light of faith in people's hearts is Ultraman!"

Applause and cheers filled the theater, as people celebrated their hero.

The audience outside the screen erupted in even louder applause and cheers, as if wanting everyone to feel their excitement.

Ultraman may be aliens, but they are a miracle called humanity!

Feeling the power transmitted to them by people, the eight Ultraman simultaneously transformed into their Shining Form.

That's right, it's the Shining Form, the final form of Tiga that's been touted as miraculous by many.

From Shinji's perspective, he prefers to call this form the Mechanical God Descent Form.

While Ultraman Tiga's Shining Form has been hailed as a divine creation by his die-hard fans, it can actually only be considered Ultraman's response to the light of humanity.

You can't say this form is trash, because it has a human mind setting. Shining Form has a strong symbolic meaning. As long as this form is present, you will never lose.

This is completely different from other so-called strongest forms that actually suffer various setbacks after the protection period ends.

Moreover, this form is not particularly special; it's basically just a flash of golden light on Ultraman's body. Even when he puts on the Shining Form, he doesn't even change the suit.

Of course, Shinji's version of "Super Eight" still gave the Ultraman a golden buff in order to retain the coolness of the Shining Form, so it looks pretty impressive.

However, it's not necessarily true that the Shining Form is particularly special.

Because theoretically, all Ultraman can transform into this form.

This isn't Shinji idea or setting that Shinji made up.

According to Tsuburaya Productions' own setting, the original Ultraman Super Eight were defeated by the Shadowmancer when they transformed into their Shining Form.

Not only in "Super Eight", but also in the later Ultraman Galaxy movie "Ten Warrior", there was a grand showcase of Shining Form, with all 10 Ultraman transforming into Shining Form.

Shinji felt that the Shining Form was more like the background music for Ultraman 80's movie: when the time comes, the music starts, and the monster is doomed.

Of course, aside from anything else, the visuals in the movies directed by the Second Master are undeniably high-class.

After transforming into their Shining Form, the eight Ultraman first dispelled the darkness with golden light, and then used their beams to shatter the gigantic Shadowmancer.

With the support of IMAX full-frame, Ultraman's body is covered in Gilgamesh special effects, and coupled with the morning light of the rising sun, the whole screen is so beautiful and unforgettable.

Compared to the Ultraman who are bathed in Buddha's light, the Dark Shadow Mage, relegated to the background, is rather unfortunate.

Logically speaking, as the final boss of the movie "Super Eight", the Shadowmancer should be an extremely powerful being.

While not quite on par with figures like Gatanothor or the Emperor, he should at least be considered to be in the same league as Gilbaris, the Ultimate Judge.

Unfortunately, due to his overly cautious nature, the Shadowmancer's presence in this movie is even less noticeable than that of the Hippolito Alien.

At least other people are memorable because of their stern faces, but all you do, this hooded guy, do is call for backup.

Even card players know to have a flamboyant hairstyle to highlight their power, but the Shadowmancer's outfit is practically a generic skin for a Dead Apostle Eater grunt.

Unfortunately, Shinji changed many settings, but he didn't change the Shadowmancer's appearance.

In Shinji's eyes, this guy was just a background character whose only purpose was to highlight the glory of the Ultraman.

Just like in the movie "Independence Day," aliens are indeed the biggest boss, but their generic alien designs are far less impressive than the enormous spaceships they represent.

However, the appearance of the Shadowmancer cannot be said to be entirely useless. At least his presence gave those who cheered on the ground for the entire movie a sense of participation.

"I have become the light!"

Although this sentence is a slogan-like line, it has different effects when used on different people.

Just like the phrase "Folk Hero," it can refer to Black Whirlwind Li Kui, or it can be used to praise White Knight Xu Xian.

Therefore, the line above was merely the emperor's dying words;

For the ordinary people in the movie "Super Eight," this represents their inner longing and their relentless pursuit of Ultraman.

For the children in the theater, this sentence reminded them of the Ultraman series "Tiga," a memory belonging to their generation of Ultraman.

The long battle finally came to an end, and a new day dawned. The eight Ultraman stood side by side on the beach, looking up at the sun slowly rising.

Soon, the eight Ultraman transformed back into their human forms and, carrying their victory, slowly walked toward the people who were waiting for them.

Subsequently, Asuka, Gamu, and Daigo successfully confessed their feelings to Ryo, Atsuko, and Lena respectively, making up for the regrets they had in the TV drama.

After all, not everyone has seen the theatrical version. In this era before "The Final Holy War" became popular, mainland audiences' understanding of Tiga's ending was still limited to that group photo.

As for Hino Mirai Daigo and transformed into light, departing.

After this battle, Daigo, Asuka, and Gamu rekindled the dreams we had once abandoned.

However, Shinji changed the ending where everyone would eventually travel together to Land of Light in a spaceship.

Unfortunately, since the film is being adapted for all ages, a fairytale ending is absolutely unacceptable.

However, Shinji had no intention of offering any cynical or motivational messages; he intended to portray Daigo and his two companions as losers in the end.

Asuka got the chance to become Professional baseball player, and because of this incident, Gamu's Parallel world theory received attention, and he returned to the research institute.

As for the protagonist Daigo--

It was another ordinary morning, and a man named Daigo was heading to work with his briefcase.

A Little Girl in Red Shoes stood in the middle of the road, smiling at him.

"Daigo."

The girl greeted him.

Daigo waved to her, a slightly sad smile on his face, "Are you leaving?"

The girl nodded.

There's something I really want to ask you: why did you choose me to help you convey this message?

The girl smiled when she heard Daigo's question.

"Because that day, Daigo, you were the first to notice me."

"Well?"

"Daigo, you protected this world and kept your promise. Thank you so much..."

The girl's body was enveloped in soft light and gradually disappeared from Daigo's sight.

"Bye now..."

Just as Daigo was about to leave after saying goodbye to the girl, he saw a huge poster pasted on the window of a newsstand by the roadside.

[Register for the Space station ordinary person life test: You Could Be a Future Astronaut!!]

"Why don't you give it a try?"

Looking at the enticing slogans on the flyer, Daigo scratched his head and smiled, then took a step towards a new life.

The story of "The Great Battle! Superior Ultraman 8 Brothers" has come to an end.

Chapter 246 <Super Eight> This movie is awesome!

"At this moment, gaze upon the distant stars with your eyes~~"

The melodious tune echoed in the theater; it was Shinji's ending theme song, "Super NOVA," for the movie "Super Eight."

This song was originally Zeta's Character song, but it is frequently used in Tiga Stage play.

However, because the lyrics of this song contain the line "the last letter of the alphabet," which directly refers to Zeta, it is usually only used for the second half of the song when it is used for Tiga.

Shinji always thought this song was really good, so when he was producing <Super Eight>, he directly modified the lyrics and used it as the ending theme.

"It's so beautiful~ I still love this kind of slightly melancholic music the most."

Shinji leaned back in his chair, a smug smile playing on his lips.

"So, Master, who exactly is that little girl?"

Seeing that the movie didn't provide a clear explanation at the end, Artoria, who was standing next to Shinji, asked him curiously.

"In the earliest version, she was a personification of Yokohama City. But I felt that this interpretation was too narrow-minded, so I simply changed her to an embodiment of World consciousness."

At this point, Shinji's expression turned somewhat gloomy. "And then I regretted it."

"World... Master, are you courting death?"

Artoria, as if struck by a thought, gave Shinji a sympathetic look.

The world of Type-Moon is not a world based on materialism; it is a world where [gods] truly exist.

It would be understandable for an ordinary person, but Shinji Magecraft who deals with the mysterious every day. How could he not know about the existence of the Counter Force?

Shinji sighed and said helplessly, "To avoid giving your boss, or Red A's boss, any bad ideas, I'll just blur it out."

Shinji is also quite helpless in this situation. Whether his setting was malicious or not is not up to him to say; it depends on whether the two people feel there was no malicious intent.

If it were just an ordinary Magecraft, it wouldn't be a problem, but the Second Master often talks trash about Red A and his boss because he's broke.

Therefore, Shinji had every reason to believe that if those two were to find fault with him, he would suffer a terrible fate.

"It should be fine... probably."

Artoria gave a cold, mocking laugh at Shinji's gambler's mentality.

"Master, you deserve to be broke."

"Wordy."

Shinji realized that his good mood for the evening had almost completely vanished.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

Shinji's unhappiness doesn't mean that other viewers who watched <Super Eight> will be unhappy.

As the music of <Super NOVA> began to play, the two-and-a-half-hour film came to a close.

Because 3D without glasses uses Magecraft technology, it doesn't cause eye discomfort for some viewers like those who wear 3D technology due to the length of the film.

Although your eyes will definitely feel a little tired after using it continuously for two and a half hours, overall the comfort of watching movies with 3D without glasses is still very good.

In addition, this film features nearly an hour of full IMAX 3D footage, making it an absolute game-changer in this day and age.

"This movie was so awesome!"

"Ultraman's expressiveness is amazing!"

"If I didn't know it was a movie, I would have suspected that the monster might suddenly appear!"

After the preview screening ended, Director Feng and Director Zhang walked out of the theater with the crowd.

Listening to the enthusiastic discussions among the moviegoers around him, Director Feng asked Director Zhang, "What are your thoughts after watching it?"

"No need to think about it? Just look at them and you'll know."

Director Zhang gestured with his eyes to the excited ordinary audience members around him, then shook his head slightly.

Although Chinese Director at this time still looked down on commercial elements in film, believing that film is ultimately art.

However, due to the cultural atmosphere, Chinese Director are not averse to large investments, large scenes, and big productions; otherwise, there wouldn't have been a triple release of "The Promise," "The Banquet," and "Curse of the Golden Flower."

Old Zhang patted Old Feng on the shoulder heavily and said, "If possible, I'd like to try 3D technology."

"I want to too."

Old Feng grinned, showing his buck teeth, with a hint of longing on his face.

Regardless of the quality of the film's plot, he believed that no Director would hesitate to try such amazing technology after seeing it.

Old Feng and Old Zhang did not continue their conversation in greater depth, because they were stopped by reporters waiting outside the theater as soon as they stepped out of the theater.

As top-tier Director in China, they were already identified by reporters as essential interviewees long before they even entered the theater.

"The two Director."

The reporter asked bluntly, "Could you share your thoughts on this film? There's been a lot of curiosity about it."

After all that repeated promotion and the grand preview screening, it's no wonder the outside world is paying attention to this movie.

"The movie's story is simple, but its grand scale is impressive."

Old Feng thought for a moment and replied, "Its visual effects are outstanding, so outstanding that nothing in our country can compare."
