YMMV / Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy Legends

Go To

  • Complete Monster: Ultraman Belial ("Super Galaxy Great Emperor") is a Fallen Hero-turned-tyrant and a Satanic Archetype. Ultraman Belial started off as a typical Ultraman warrior , but, due to greed, desired to steal the Plasma Spark powering their entire civilization; this would cause the planet to immediately freeze over, trapping all the Ultras in ice for an eternity. Belial was found out, and sent into exile...before coming back, having merged with the ancient Alien Rayblood. He went on a wild rampage before being sealed away by Ultraman King. Unfortunately, thousands of years later an Alien Zarab sets Belial free in an attempt to form an alliance with him. In return, Belial kills the Zarab and then heads to the Land of Light, successfully stealing the Plasma Spark and freezing everyone on the planet in an And I Must Scream state. Belial then plans to take his army of 100 kaiju and use them to conquer the galaxy. When confronted by the few survivors of his earlier campaign, Belial sics his monsters on them, at one point mind-controlling Rei and Gomora and turning them against Ultraseven. Belial then finishes the job, seemingly killing Seven. When cornered, Belial forcibly merges with all of his monsters into a Body Horror super monster named Belyudra, literally made from their bodies, causing all of them intense agony.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: In this film, Narse attacked the Pendragon, ZAP SPACY's battleship. 12 years later, Narse would become the defense team's battleship.
  • Moral Event Horizon: Ultraman Belial crosses it when he tries to steal the Plasma Spark and not learning from his exile like Zero instead deciding to fuse with the Alien Rayblood to become a Multiversal Conqueror without caring about all the suffering and deaths he causes to innocents, Ultra Warriors or his own minions. He reinforces this in his second attempt to conquer the Land of Light's power, stealing the Plasma Spark and leaving all the inhabitants to be frozen solid and die off slowly purely out of spite.
  • Nightmare Fuel: Belyudra, a gigantic (4,000 meters tall) Kaiju made out of the still-living full bodies of all Kaiju and aliens in the Monster Graveyard that looks like the devil and is a nigh-unstoppable juggernaut.
  • One-Scene Wonder: A good majority of the kaiju only get a small bit of screen time, but man they make the most of it. Special mention goes to Black King and Zaragas (who's sole appearance is fighting Gomora in the Batman Cold Open).
  • Questionable Casting: Many fans had this reaction to the fact that Ultraman King is voiced by former Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi. Yes, really.
  • Special Effect Failure: This has a lot of CG in it, but most of it is quite good. But some cracks show up here or there, especially when a lot of the film is reliant on green screen. For instance, when Belial triumphantly holds up Taro after they crash-land back on the Land of Light, Taro is blatantly transparent due to some chroma keying errors.
  • Visual Effects of Awesome: Of all the works of Ultra Series, this film has by far some of the most beautiful and awesome CGI ever. It helps that Warner Bros. was involved in the film's production. And while not as good as the CGI in Hollywood films, this was definitely spectacular for a 2009 tokusatsu film (even to this day), more so than the competitors.
