Music[]
- The 20-minute special is almost entirely comprised of ten musical numbers, as follows:
- Large Gathering! Space Colosseum, instrumental orchestral track for the opening montage of all Ultras gathering for the party.
- Introducing Ultra Funk Jam, introducing the premise of the dance troupe Ultra Funk Jam, with 11 "Hero Team" dancers and 11 "Kaiju Team" dancers, styled after Ultras and Seijin respectively. Style is hip-hop with a focus on flips.
- Cool! Ultra Hero, starring four Hero-Team dancers. Hip-hop music with a focus on flips and group-coordinated hip-hop dance techniques.
- Kaiju GROOVE Dance, starring six Kaiju-Team dancers, heavy focus on floorwork/breakdancing techniques.
- Sexy? Dance Time, starring two Kaiju and four Heroes. Slower, more experimental music with elements of interpretive dance.
- KIDS Dance Time, starring the two child performers (one Hero, one Kaiju) and Miraclon. Upbeat hip-hop with child singers, with simple, child-friendly dance steps.
- Battle with Rock Dance, with three members each from teams Hero and Kaiju. Presented as a dance/rap battle, with both teams taking turns competitively dancing with their own verses dissing the other team.
- Romantic Dance Time, starring one each from Kaiju and Hero teams, later including more members of each. Starts as ballet, later evolves into salsa/hip-hop blend. Members of the audience with known romantic partners dance with one another.
- Time for a Serious Battle!?, All members, presented as a battle between Hero-Team and Kaiju-Team, with the child performers of each faction trapped between the warring teams. Music and dancing is notably more urgent/ominous, as the narrative climax of the special.
- Happy Dance Everyone!, presented as both factions agreeing to be friends, celebratory and short.
- See you again!!, presented as a curtain-call. Music uses audio sample from the then-current Ultaman Cosmos theme "Something You Can Do" before returning to hip-hop/rap.
- Let's Dance Together at the End! Ending credits, during which we see Hero Team dance alongside footage of schoolchildren performing the same dance.
