Overrun by Kaiju and pinned behind enemy lines, Kiki could really use the help of the newly merged Ultraman - but what went wrong with the merging process, and how will that impact our hero?

The K-Ray mystery is finally explained, Kiki gets (semi-) rescued, and at last, we have a real "Ultraman vs. giant kaiju" fight on deck.

The visuals remain a pretty strong positive, too.
