Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

On the other side of the city.

An animation content creator named "Old Zhang Talks Anime" is currently idly refreshing the animation rankings on Starlight Video, looking for material to make fun of.

"Sigh, it's the same old isekai overpowered protagonist story, or some poorly made children's Flash animation..."

Old Zhang yawned and casually clicked on the real-time trending list.

The top spots on the list are still dominated by works produced or heavily promoted by the same few large companies.

His mouse slid down instinctively, his gaze sweeping over the lists with unremarkable data.

Suddenly, he stopped moving.

A cover with a very different style caught his attention.

A giant in red, purple, and silver stood majestically on the earth.

Its unique shape is filled with an indescribable sense of sacredness and power.

Ultraman Tiga: The Successor of Light?

"Ultraman? What's that? A new robot anime? Or a superhero?"

Old Zhang frowned. The name and cover had a strange feel to them, unlike a mainstream work.

Out of professional habit and a touch of pure curiosity, he moved the mouse and clicked on it.

The video has started playing.

The first thing you see is not the main content, but a simple intro.

There are no fancy special effects, only the deep cosmic starry sky as the background, a shooting star streaks across the sky, and then the intro begins.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful vocal performance began, accompanied by lyrics and rapidly flashing stills on the screen.

Like sunlight piercing through the night.

Visuals: TPC armored vehicles are fully equipped and ready to go.

Dawn quietly breaks across the horizon!

Visuals: The Flying Swallow shuttles through the air.

Whose figure traverses the cycle of reincarnation?

Visual: Ultraman Tiga stands tall on the earth.

The road to the future lies beneath our feet!

Scene: TPC members appear on the road on motorcycles.

Don't be sad, don't be afraid!

……

The singing continued, filled with passionate emotion.

This is the Chinese version of "Miracle Again" sung by Miriam Yeung herself.

He was not a professional singer, and his voice was even hoarse due to his weak health, let alone any singing skills.

But it contains emotions.

It was a yearning for life, a longing for light, and the purest love for this work.

This allows the song to reach the heart.

Many viewers instinctively stopped scrolling the mouse wheel or moving the progress bar as soon as they heard the first sentence.

This singing has a strange sense of passion and positivity, which is completely different from current popular songs.

"This song is quite interesting."

Old Zhang raised an eyebrow and unconsciously sat up straighter.

The opening theme ends, and the main feature begins.

From the technologically advanced interior of the TPC base to the appearance of the mysterious pyramid, the awe-inspiring debut of the three colossal stone statues, and the destructive power displayed by Golza and Melba...

Old Zhang's expression changed from initial nonchalance to surprise, and then to complete focus.

As Daigo piloted the Flying Swallow towards the monster, he transformed into light due to an inner calling, merging into the Ultraman Tiga statue, thus truly reviving the Giant of Light...

Holy crap!

Old Zhang couldn't help but swear, his eyes widening in disbelief.

The fight scenes feature incredibly realistic leather suits, unimaginable power transitions, and a variety of light-based attacks...

This was nothing like the low-budget, rough work he had envisioned!

At this moment, Lao Zhang still couldn't understand the concept of filming in a suit.

But the production, the creativity, the special effects were completely beyond his comprehension.

He watched the entire episode almost holding his breath.

In the end, Tiga flies into the sky, Daigo reappears in front of his comrades, and the ending theme song plays.

Old Zhang let out a long sigh of relief, his heart filled with indescribable excitement and emptiness.

23 minutes of content, and it's already over?

He instinctively moved the mouse, wanting to click on the next episode.

However, the button is grayed out.

"Only one episode?!"

Old Zhang was stunned, a strong sense of loss welling up inside him.

He hadn't experienced this feeling of wanting more and eagerly wanting to know what would happen next in a long time.

"A masterpiece! This is definitely a potential masterpiece!"

He slammed his hand on the table in excitement.

"I have to share this! Let those guys in the group see what I'm missing!"

He couldn't wait to open his QQ group, which had several thousand followers.

"Old Zhang's Anime Tea Party".

Just as he was about to promote it, he discovered that the group's message history for the day had reached 999+.

This is extremely rare in his group, which is not usually very active.

He scrolled up through the chat history, puzzled.

Then, he froze.

For about two hours now, the group chat has been dominated by the same name.

"Has anyone seen Ultraman Tiga? It's awesome!"

"My God, that transformation gave me goosebumps!"

"Which company made this? I've never heard of this type before!"

"This cartoon is for kids? I'm thirty years old and it gets me totally excited!"

"Only one episode? Even the donkeys in the production team wouldn't dare rest like that!"

"Who is the content creator A-Guang? I can't find any information about him!"

"Who sings the opening theme song? I can't find the audio, it's so energetic!"

Old Zhang watched the screen scrolling rapidly, seeing his friends in the group enthusiastically discussing Ultraman Tiga's design, TPC's aircraft, the oppressive aura of the two monsters, and even starting to analyze the setting and worldview of the Giant of Light...

He silently deleted the promotional text he had already typed and instead posted:

"So, you've all been watching already?"

Someone replied immediately:

"Old Zhang, you're only just seeing this? We've been discussing it for ages!"

"Look! This will absolutely change your perception of Chinese animation... uh, this thing doesn't really count as animation, does it?"

Old Zhang gave a wry smile, closed the group chat, and instead opened several online communities and microblogs he frequented.

Sure enough, discussion threads about "Ultraman Tiga" began to spring up like mushrooms after rain in some forums and topics where anime fans gathered.

Although it hasn't yet become a widespread phenomenon across the internet, its speed of spread and the level of discussion it generates far exceed those of typical new works.

When some people tried to categorize this work, they quoted a word written by Yang Qian in the video description.

"This doesn't seem to be called animation. The author used a new term in the synopsis: tokusatsu drama?"

"Special effects? What does that mean? A special effects drama filmed with live actors wearing suits?"

"Who cares what it's called! As long as it's good, that's all that matters! It's a tokusatsu series, right? I declare myself a tokusatsu fan!"

Yang Qian, the mastermind behind all of this, remains asleep.

until……

[Ding! The influence of the first episode of "Ultraman Tiga" has continued to rise, with its reach exceeding the initial threshold and its positive review rate remaining at an extremely high level!]

[Newbie task (create and publish a children's video with a good rating) completed!]

[Reward: 10 points, malignant cell erosion level reduced by 1%! Current erosion level: 70%!]

The system notification sound in his mind did not wake Yang Qian from his sleep.

However, the number of cancer cells in his body did indeed decrease by a small amount.
