posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Philippine cinema chain SM Cinema revealed on Wednesday that it will open the Ultra Fight Victory spinoff series in theaters beginning on August 30. The series will air in its collected form as a single movie.
SM Cinema describes the film:
Yapool has returned after being injured in Ultraman Ginga S. He masterminds several attacks on Shou's homeworld in an attempt to get to the Victorium Core. Ultraman Hikari appears and grants Shou the ability to transform into Knight Mode with the Knight Timbre. Now free from their Spark Doll forms, some of the Showa Ultras join Victory in his fight.
The series originally premiered as a 13-episode series of three minutes each in March to June 2015 after the end of each episode of New Ultraman Retsuden. The series is a spinoff of the Gekijōban Ultraman Ginga S Kessen! Ultra 10 Yūshi!! (Ultraman Ginga S the Movie: Showdown! Ultra 10 Warriors!!) film.
The Gekijōban Ultraman Ginga S Kessen! Ultra 10 Yūshi!! movie, a sequel to the Ultraman Ginga S television show, opened in theaters in Japan in March 2015. In the film, Earth regained peace, but suddenly a huge spatiotemporal castle appears with a new enemy to challenge Ultra Ginga and Ultra Victory. The UPG (Ultra Party Guardians) gather with Musashi Haruno/Ultraman Cosmos to investigate. They discover that the female warrior Alena sealed a variety of Ultra warriors within the castle.
SM Cinema previously opened the film in the Philippines last September.
