Ultraman Ginga S (ウルトラマンギンガS Urutoraman Ginga Esu) is a Japanese television series produced by Tsuburaya Productions which is the sequel to Ultraman Ginga, as well as part of the New Ultraman Retsuden programming block on TV Tokyo.[1]
Story
After two years Ultraman Ginga left Earth, Hikaru returns to Japan once again after gaining a strange vision during his adventure in Mexico. Once he's arrived, he discovered a new threat in the form of Alien Chibull Exceller, an alien who steals Victorium (ビクトリウム Bikutoriumu), Android One-Zero, his android enforcer and his alien minions. Alarmed by the theft of the Victorium, the Victorian (ビクトリアン Bikutorian), a group of ancient civilians that live underground sent Sho to retrieve it and bestow him an ancient relic, the Victory Lancer (ビクトリーランサー Bikutorī Ransā) that transforms him into their protector, Ultraman Victory (ウルトラマンビクトリー Urutoraman Bikutorī).
Hikaru was dragged into the battle again after recruited into UPG (Ultra Party Guardians), an attack team formed by the International Defense Forces after various paranormal incidents. He reunites with Ultraman Ginga and join forces with Show to take down Exceller and his minions. Ultraman Taro returns as well, having sensed the new threat and supports Ginga through the Strium Brace (ストリウムブレス Sutoriumu Buresu), which allows him to become Ultraman Ginga Strium (ウルトラマンギンガストリウム Urutoraman Ginga Sutoriumu) with the power of the 6 Ultra Brothers.
As the series progress, it was revealed that Exceller's true agenda is to revive Dark Lugiel from the moon, desiring his body in order to take over the galaxy. He was revived once again as Victor Lugiel after fusing himself with the UPG's Victorium Cannon, their ultimate weapon but halfway through the invasion, the real Dark Lugiel reveals himself, kills Exceller and contemplates to restart his plan to freeze all lifeforms. He was defeated once again by Ultraman Ginga and Ultraman Victory, after Exceller's former android One-Zero sabotages Vict Lugiel's inner system at the cost of her own. After the battle, both Ginga and Taro leaves the Earth once more and Hikaru and Sho parted ways.
