Synopsis
Ultra Galaxy Fight: New Generation Heroes The first series, , aired from September 29 to December 22, 2019. It follows after the end of Ultraman R/B the Movie and prelude to Ultraman Taiga with a total of 13 episodes. The story takes place after the end of Ultraman Taiga The Movie and serving as the prelude to Ultraman Z. (episodes 1-3) Prior to his membership in the Galaxy Rescue Force, Ribut was a civilization guardian alongside Ultraman Max and investigated the Planet Mikarito's sudden depletion of energy. Discovering the Maga-Orochi egg to be its source of problem, their attempt at attacking it provoked Hellberus into defending the egg and Alien Sran infecting Max with the Gudis Cells to turn him into Maga-Orochi's ration. At the same time in Planet Kanon, 80 defended Yullian and Sora when Leugocyte attacked them during their peaceful negotiation on Planet Kanon. Tartarus left the scene with a new plan in mind, with his presence sensed by Ultraman King. :;Chapter 2: (episodes 4-6) In addition to Alien Bat, Zett and Reibatos, Absolute Tartarus begins assembling a group of his own in against the Ultra Warriors. Tartarus scouted various villains from different points in the Land of Light's history, including Juda and Mold from their active period. To recruit the fallen Ultras, he jumped into the past before any of them would convert to the darkness. He started off by traversing into the era of Great Ultra War, where the Land of Light had recently fending off against Alien Empera and his army. In the present era, the Gua Army brothers fought against the original six Ultra Brothers under the impression to summon the Andro Defense Force, but was killed by Taro's Cosmo Miracle Beam. Although in Early Styles, Belial and Tregear took advantage of their recently acquired Absolutian powers to lay waste on the Ultra Brothers and came close to defeating Ultraman Zero before Tartarus called off the fight, escorting the fallen Ultras back to The Kingdom. Upon discovering of Tartarus' plan to threaten both the timeline and parallel universes, Father of Ultra decided to enlist Zero for his ability to travel between dimensions. Although Zett was killed by the combined effort of Taiga and Ultraman Z, Tartarus successfully kidnapped Yullian. Absolute Tartarus revealed that he plans to use Yullian as a hostage to force the Ultras into surrendering the Land of Light for his people, Absolutian, to populate as their new home. Before they could make any progress, Hikari alarmed the theft of Ultra Medals by Genegarg as Zero and Z left to pursue the monster. Yullian on the other hand was placed into Narak alongside another figure in captivity. Writer Junichiro Ashiki confirmed his participation in his Twitter account. The title is later announced to be during an online event. The Destined Crossroad aired in Tsuburaya Imagination from April 29 to July 1, 2022, with its English dub on May 29, 2022, both of which are under the pay-per-view contents. In the prologue, Cosmos managed to fend off against a squad of Absolutians who invaded Planet Juran. Members of the Inter-Galactic Defense Force reorganized their plans after Yullian's kidnapping, with Mebius in particular continues to train the other Ultras for their upcoming war with the Absolutians. Returning from his pursuit against Genegarg, Zero approaches Joneus and seeks to further train himself in against Tartarus. Ultraman King however disagree with the idea and tries to find a way to avoid the conflict between both races. The Tri-Squad decided to recruit the New Generation Heroes as part of the reformed Ultra League, only to find themselves assisting their seniors (including Z after his fight with Destrudos) in their hunt for the Devil Splinters, especially when Gina Spectre joins the fray to steal them. While training with Mebius, Grigio became fast friends with Ultraman Zearth, Nice and Boy, as they later dragged into the conflict with the New Generation Heroes and The Kingdom. Seeing Gina's emotional pain of losing her brothers, Grigio's attempt at saving her were all for naught when she was forcefully fused into Gua Spectre. At the same time, Absolute Titan was assigned to attack Ultraman Noa at Planet Babel, leading to a confrontation with the Ultra Force and eventually getting trapped into a Meta Field, wherein his cooperation with Ribut was used as a test by Nexus/Noa to confirm his believes that the two race can achieve a peaceful coexistence. Ribut was sent back to be revived after losing his life on Babel, while Zero faces Tartarus using his newfound ability to become unpredictable. As Tartarus threatens to execute Yullian, the Land of Light assembles a rescue squad (later joined by Ultraman Justice) to storm The Kingdom's Central Planet to rescue the princess, additionally saving an Ultraman named Regulos, who was also held captive as part of The Kingdom's experimentation. The Absolutians' attempt at chasing them leads to a confrontation with the Inter-Galactic Defense Force in Planet Blizzard. While Titan, Belial and Tregear left the fight after being dispirited, the loss of a majority of his forces convinces Tartarus to unleash his full power on his opponents. King intervenes at the last minute as their crossfire created a black hole that drags Ribut, Tartarus and Diavolo's heart into it. As Ribut was declared missing in action, The Kingdom went into a temporary hiding as Belial plans on deserting his employers to obtain power on his own merit. On the other hand, Regulos joins the Ultras on training for their upcoming fight with The Kingdom, while Ultraman King, Zoffy, Father and Mother of Ultra and Yullian plan on seeking the Absolutians' lord in hopes that both of their race can reach a peaceful solution. Ultraman Z left to retrieve Haruki and returns to the latter's Earth, while the black hole from Planet Blizzard sends Ribut, Tartarus and a revived Diavolo to the world of Eternity Core, observing the fight between Ultraman Trigger and the Giants of Darkness taking place. Both of these events lead to the characters' respective guest appearances in episodes 7 and 14 of Ultraman Trigger: New Generation Tiga. ==Voice cast==

Production
:;New Generation Heroes The special was conceived by Koichi Sakamoto, who was the director of past Ultra Series Ultraman Ginga S and Ultraman Geed, with Galaxy Fight is his third spin-off direction after Ultra Fight Victory and Ultra Fight Orb. In an interview conducted by Tamashii Nations, Sakamoto revealed that the reason Galaxy Fight will be aired on YouTube is due to the overseas popularity of Ultra Series, with Asian region nations such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, while the real challenge comes in the series separating into 5 minutes per episodes. In comparison to television series, he found that spin-off series provided him with more creativity to generate ideas for the scene, with such example being ''Ultra Fight Orb's introduction to Lightning Attacker and Emerium Slugger. The inclusion of enemy characters such as Dark Lugiel, Etelgar, Ultra Dark Killer, X and Geed Darkness was already planned from the start as Hikaru Raido, the human host of Ultraman Ginga was chosen as the lead of New Generation Heroes due to his close image with a typical shonen manga protagonist. On September 24, 2019, Tsuburaya unveils additional information, such as synopsis, theme song, cast list and the appearance of Ultraman Ribut since his 2014 appearance in the Malaysian animation series Upin & Ipin''. :;The Absolute Conspiracy Koichi Sakamoto stated that the production behind The Absolute Conspiracy was made in response to the popularity of New Generation Heroes, as well as the success of the English dubbing and its easier accessibility through YouTube on mobile devices. Whereas the previous instalments had the appearance of a "festival", Sakamoto aimed for The Absolute Conspiracy for individual focus of different Ultras in their respective eras, hence the series' 10 episodes are separated and categorized into three chapters. The first chapter, The Beginning, focuses on Ultraman Ribut as the main character for his in-depth exploration of his past prior to his recruitment in the Galaxy Rescue Force. Sakamoto draws inspiration from Mamoru Uchiyama's The Ultraman manga series over its space opera theme, carrying it over from the 2009 movie Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy. Inclusions of Ultraman 80, Great, Neos, Seven 21 and Max are due to their series celebrating their milestone anniversaries, while Powered, Cosmos and Justice were in hopes of further expanding their characters after their last live action appearances. Knowing full well that Great and Powered's series had their filming in overseas, Sakamoto consciously study and retain their fight styles in the miniseries; Sumo for Great, while Karate for Powered. The Divergence has fallen Ultras from the Land of Light, Belial and Tregear, as viewpoint characters by focusing on their past prior to their fall from grace. Belial's past interwinds with those of Father of Ultra and Mother of Ultra. The Ultimate Wars, an event that was originally mentioned in episode 25 of Ultraman Taro, is expanded as part of Belial and Father of Ultra's past in their fight against Alien Empera. Meanwhile, Tregear was given a light-blue form that depicted his time before forming his pact with Grimdo. Sakamoto highlighted that Belial and Tregear has different backgrounds and personalities, but they will further develop their characters in the future. The Appearance had Zero, the Tri-Squad and Z sharing the baton of viewpoint character, as well as developing the relationship between Zero and Taiga. The addition of Ultraman Joneus and Andro Melos is due to writer Junichiro Ashiki being a fan of The Ultraman, while Melos himself was due to Sakamoto's history of working with characters from his titular series. Andro Melos' fighting style also takes cues from the stunt team Ono Kenyukai, known for their contributions in the Kamen Rider series. Although production of the miniseries had long started, The Absolute Conspiracy was announced by Tsuburaya Productions on August 20, 2020, the same day their YouTube channel receive their YouTube Creator Awards. ==Spin-off program==
