Kazamori continued their escape with a plant life form. Before them appeared a Alien Garut. He spoke of the Akashic Records, stating that humanity's demise signifies the destiny of Earth's evolution according to the will of the records. To confirm the truth, Kazamori headed to the Utsu Shrine, where the existence of the Akashic Records is said to be confirmed. The true intentions of the Alien Garut, who had previously denied any intent of invasion, are revealed!
Plot[]
With clear evidence that aliens had been infiltrating TDF to invade the Earth, the peaceful treaty that was signed by Earth and the entire galaxy was terminated. The Ultra Guard and Saijou's men of surviving TDF members were hunting Kazamori and the Plant Life Form. Alien Garut provided cover for the two to escape and confirmed himself to be the mastermind behind all the incidents so far; such as the invasion of Alien Pegassa and Godola into TDF, mind-control of a population, the new human children's rise and even Neo Pandon were all under the action of protecting Mitsuko as her kind is the inheritor of Earth's future, based on the will of Akashic Record. Kazamori refused, wanting to confirm the validity of this record by looking for the Akashic Record at Urosu Shrine.
While Kazamori and Mitsuko made their way to the shrine, UG tailed cooperated with the police officers to apprehend Inagaki and hunting down Kazamori and Mitsuko. The fugitive duo took refuge in a hotel, while Yuki met with Inagaki. The former TDF officer confided four years prior, Alien Garut had obtained the Akashic Record in order to invade the Earth. TDF wanted to confirm the record's detail (regarding that Plant Life Form as the sole inheritor of Earth's future), so they form a special force which Yuki and Suwa were part of to an expedition in Urosu shrine, but accessing the record requires traversing into an alternate dimension through manipulation of muons, something that normal humans incapable of. The special forces fail to secure the record and only Yuki and Suwa made it out safely, including the fact that said incident was one which put Yuki into a state of comatose. Yuki once more experienced a headache relating to her past. Inagaki admitted that he was forced to sell mankind's freedom to the aliens to ensure their place in Earth's future. He was about to reveal the person who suggested this (Suwa), but was assassinated to keep his mouth shut and relay the info of the Omega Files to Yuki in his dying breath.
TDF and UG stormed the hotel where Kazamori and Mitsuko was in, but Shiragane secretly assisted the two in their escape. Through Yuki's testimony in the Omega Files, UG discovered that the Akashic Record copy brought by Alien Garut described the Plant Life Form as the inheritors of Earth's future, leaving mankind to be terminated. Yuki rescued Kazamori and Mitsuko during their trip to the Urosu Shrine and had a run-in with her former leader, Suwa. It was revealed that Yuki and Suwa were chosen by the Akashic Records to paralyze TDF and protect Mitsuko. After being shot by Alien Garut, Suwa revealed to her that she will serve as a bridge for both mankind and Plant Life Forms before he disappeared into muons. Yuki's true potential as a reborn human being awakened, allowing her to manipulate muons and finally opening the door to Akashic Records. In the alternate dimension, Kazamori found the record detailing the truth: in addition to Plant Life Form, humans and the neo neuron will cooperate to inherit the Earth's future together. Alien Garut had went into the same location before, but he removed humanity and neo neuron's part in the evolution in order to further his invasion plans on Earth. Satomi's poem in Kazamori's hand transformed into the real physical copy of the Akashic Records.
With the Ultra Guard approaching the shrine as well, Alien Garut admitted to them that he had forged the Akashic Record for his invasion purposes and summoned Gaimos (a monster) to destroy everyone before the true content of said record can be revealed. Entrusting the copy to Mitsuko, Kazamori transformed to fight both Gaimos and the giant Alien Garut, calling out on the alien for his crimes in tampering with the planet's future. Seven fell after suffering a heavy barrage of attacks, only to rise up again through a voice from Satomi's spirit. Seven killed Garut using his Eye Slugger, before proceeding to destroy Garut in a single shot.
The Plant Life Form and Yuki presented the rest of UG the physical copy of the Record, finally confirming that mankind still has their place in the future. Kazamori/Seven decided to part ways with their comrade together, still doubting if Alien Garut's action was legitimate and that the Akashic Record was rewritten by someone else. However for the two, they had since fall in love with the planet and its people, believing that all the trials and tribulations they went against were worth it.
Each episode was originally released on a separate DVD. The complete series was later released in a DVD box set titled Ultraseven 1994～2002 Perfect Collection on April 18, 2012.[1][2]
This episode serves as the series finale, beginning with Kazamori and Mitsuko's escape. To reflect her transformation, Mitsuko is given a new hairstyle and regains the ability to speak.
The DVD brochure suggests that humanity may not stay in its current form forever. Beings like the Neo-Neuron or Plant Life Forms could shape the future, possibly replacing pure humans over time. These lifeforms, with feminine features, may reproduce similarly to humans, pointing toward an evolved "future human" form. This change fits within the theme of "coexistence with other lifeforms."[4]
However, considering the fate of Earth's true natives—the Nonmalt—Kazamori/Ultraseven ultimately chooses to leave the Ultra Guard, unable to fully celebrate humanity's future.
The connection between Kazamori and Ultraseven remains ambiguous. Their bond isn't a simple fusion or separation, but something more complex.
The brochure suggests they have become a new kind of lifeform—one that merges Ultraseven's macro-level vision with Kazamori's micro-level perspective. They share thoughts, awareness, and intuition, but this duality also causes deep internal conflict. Their painful coexistence represents the cost of moving into a new era.
Questions like whether Suwa is real or a memory, or if the plant lifeforms are mutants or a new species, were intentionally left open to interpretation. Even the scene of Kazamori at the shore was meant to be symbolic, not explained.
Takano briefly considered the origin of the Plant Life Forms but didn't want to define it too clearly—whether they were native or previously undiscovered species.
Filming the human-sized Ultraseven was tricky, especially in the park scene, where he appeared smaller than expected. Though Takano worried this reduced his presence, the crew agreed that Ultraseven could still feel powerful even at a smaller scale.
Producer Hiroshi Chikasada revealed that the original concept from VAP was for all characters to die, similar to Farewell to Space Battleship Yamato, but this was ultimately scrapped.
Instead, they introduced a new Ultra Guard member who would be revealed as an alien. This evolved into the idea of the Neo-Neuron Life Form (ネオニューロン生命体, Neo Nyūron Seimeitai)—a species unlike humans, able to survive in space without suits.
Actor Katsuyuki Yamazaki filmed his final scene as Kazamori alone at Nikkatsu Studio, after the rest of the cast had finished. Reflecting on his role, he felt a deep sense of closure and fulfillment.[6][7]
