In this, they discuss the surprisingly cinematic 2010 direct-to-video special Ultra Galaxy Legend Side Story: Ultraman Zero vs. Darlkops Zero.

Ultra Galaxy Legend Side Story: Ultraman Zero vs. Darklops Zero is available as part of The Ultraman Zero Collection blu-ray set released by Mill Creek Entertainment.
