The Planet Killer Appears
The mysterious robot Satandelos only moves for one hour each day. None of Trigger’s attacks can get through its super strong barrier. After a series of defeats, Trigger and GUTS-Select search desperately for a way to take down the barrier, but they don’t even know where to begin… That is, until an unexpected figure appears before them!Tropes
- Cold Open: The episode starts with an already nearly defeated and exhausted Trigger fighting Satandelos and failing to overcome his foe, while Ignis looks from afar.
- Cruel Mercy: In Ignis' flashback, Hudram spares him purely because he had his fill with the lives he already claimed in his genocide and leaves the last Lishurian wallowing in misery.
- Disney Death: At the climax the large explosion after Hudram's defeat seems to show that Trigger killed him off, but Ignis at the end of the episode figures out that he's still alive and more will be needed to destroy the Dark Giant.
- Downer Beginning: The episode opens with Ultraman Trigger having been defeated by Satandelos and forced to transform back into Kengo.
- Enemy Mine: GUTS Select join forces with Ignis so as to defeat the seemingly unbeatable Satandelos.
- From Bad to Worse: Satandelos is already a tough situation to deal with, but it only gets worse once Hudram gets involved to distract Trigger.
- Hour of Power: Satandelos can only move for one hour each day, when not on the move it gets protected by a shield to avoid harm.
- The Juggernaut: Until GUTS Select learned about its weakness, Satandelos is nearly unstoppable.
- Resolved Noodle Incident: Here we learn why Ignis hates Hudram: Because Hudram commited genocide on his homeworld and spared Ignis out of Cruel Mercy.
- The Reveal: The reason Ignis hates Hudram is because the Dark Giant killed off all other Lishurians and destroyed their planet while sparing Ignis out of sadistic boredom with his actions.
- Wham Episode: We finally learn why Ignis feels a grudge against Hudram and Ignis starts taking an interest in obtaining Trigger's power so as to defeat Hudram for good.
