History[]
Ultraman Cosmos[]
One night, Chaos Organism encountered a bunch of garbage dumped in the wilderness of the town of Hotarugahara and possessed the inorganic components, turning them into ravenous killers mimicking a swarm of fireflies. The swarm quickly fed on one man's car leaving only the tires. Musashi and Keisuke arrived the next day to the site only to find the chaos mutated swarm attacking them. They were about to be eaten alive in their car when Musashi shut off the engine, making it invisible to the swarm. Shortly after the two of them went out to track the swarm, Koji and Ayano were sent in one of the fighters to assist them. The swarm took notice of the fighter's heated engine and formed into the monster Chaos Bug after being fired at. As Chaos Bug tore through the the local town, EYES tried to defeat the creature to no avail. Having no other choice, Musashi turned into Ultraman Cosmos to do battle. Even though Cosmos was able to easily out manuver it, Chaos Bug caught the hero by surprise when its Chaos Absorber redirected the Luna Extract with great force. Cosmos quickly went from Luna to Corona Mode and started to beat Chaos Bug mercilessly. After assaulting Chaos Bug, Cosmos used the Naybuster Ray to blow the Kaiju to pieces.
