Ch. 1161Gijera and the Descending Darkness
Dark Lugiel explained that he and Ginga had split over whether life could find its own way forward, then used Chaos Header and Gijera’s pollen to trap humanity in perfect dreams. Masaki Keigo challenged Lugiel’s claim that people had freely chosen the dreams, and Lugiel transformed into his true form as Ginga and Ultraman Taro were overwhelmed.
- Gijera’s pollen spread across Earth, freeing people from their nightmares and luring them into smiling, dreamlike stupors.
- Chaos Virus replicas of Super Taro and Ginga formed and attacked Ultraman Taro and Ginga, leaving both badly injured.
- Masaki Keigo realized Dark Lugiel had used Chaos Header and Gijera’s pollen to create an eternal dream, and Lugiel recounted how his disagreement with Ginga had begun after their battle destroyed a planet they had tried to save.
- Dark Lugiel argued that humanity had chosen its beautiful dreams, but Masaki Keigo accused him of manipulating people and imprisoning them to avoid facing loss and helplessness.
- Dark Lugiel erupted into black slime and grew into his armored true form, wielding a dark red spear.
