A New Light: Part 1

Episode 1: "A New Light pt.1" is the first episode of the 51-episode series: Ultraman Dyna.

Overview
The story begins when the two top trainees at Training Squad ZERO: Asuka and a local bully, compete on hand to hand combat in a man-ring. However, the bully quickly gains the advantage, so Asuka cheated by pretending that the instructor has just arrived. As soon as the bully turned around to salute to the non-existent instructor, Asuka was below him and jabbed him in the crotch using his fingers.

When the real instructor came, it was revealed that Super GUTS members Ryo and Kariya are here to demonstrate a first real-life squadron assault in outer space. However, only the best will survive since the SGUTS members would be at the minor station before the trainees and shooting will begin even before the assault starts. After a brief and furious battle in which Asuka successfully tagged Ryo and Kariya, the Spheres appeared and began to assault the station. The trainees immedietly switched from practice to battle mode on the GUTS Wing 01, but Ryo had trouble with it since the computer malfunctioned. However, just when Ryo's craft was captured by the Spheres, Asuka rescued the member but was then gunned down himself. As Asuka drifted through space, he encountered a strange light before he fell into unconscious.

After Asuka woke up, he met with one of the member of SGUTS: Mai. After Mai explains to him that he is SGUTS' new member, he meets up with the rest of the team before they are dispatched on a mission to the TPC Mars Base, which was under attack from the Spheres. However, Asuka's recklessness gave the Sphere's monster: Drambia a chance to down his craft. After crashing and injuring the co-pilot Kouda, Asuka rushed out to defend the fallen craft. However, a strange light overtook him and transformed him into Ultraman Dyna. As soon as Dyna appeared, Drambia was blasted apart from the sheer amount of light created during the transformation! But Dyna's victory was not to be celebrated as Drambia's pieces drifted together into a new beast: Neo-Drambia! Will this new giant of light be able to defend Earth?

 * 1) Although a great new concept for Ultraman plot lines, the novelty wears off quickly as you see many things repeated over, over, and over again for the next few Ultra series.
 * 2) Dyna's role as the first Ultraman to appear on Mars bring to me great novelty. Unfortunatly, this concept was not used often and is now left to obsecurity.
 * 3) This episode refreshes many viewers of the good memory of watching Tiga a year ago (that glory hog) by including many classic GUTS vehicles into action.
 * 4) This episode also unravels the potentials of TPC and how successful this universe can become if continued.
 * 5) This is the first episode that actually brings me interest by making the Ultraman so pumped in power that by solely transforming he can destroy a monster instantly, a neat thing forgotten nowadays. yao l. 04:32, February 4, 2012 (UTC)
