Synopsis
Last night's events and the destruction caused by the monster were not even in the news, except for Yuta, as if they were in a situation where things were being reset.

Listening to the words of Gridman who tells Yuta to fulfill the mission, Yuta began to investigate what changed overnight.

Easter Eggs
Ultraman Series
- Many Ultra Kaiju, most prominently those from Ultraman: Towards the Future, Ultraman: The Ultimate Hero, Ultraman Zearth and Ultraman Nexus are seen in Akane's monster shelf.
- Elements of Ultraman Orb episode 2, The Lord of Earth are as follows:
- Dévadadan's attack and how it destroyed a building is based on the same scene of Maga-Grand King toppling a nearby building on the SSP members. Fortunately for Gridman Alliance, Samurai・Calibur saved them in the nick of time.
- Gridman and Dévadadan's battle parallels Ultraman Orb Spacium Zeperion trying to shoot Maga-Grand King but to no avail and receives a return fire instead, causing both heroes to also hit their limits.
- The debut of Gridman Primal Fighter is similar to Ultraman Orb Hurricane Slash from A Heart That Won't Flee, standing atop a taller building.
Other
- The scene where Gridman appears and stands atop a building, and then comes down with a flying kick is a recreation of a similar move performed in the Dangaioh series.
- Gridman holding and pointing the Gridman Calibur towards the left area of the screen is a homage to the Masami Obari sword pose that is performed in various mecha-genre anime.
- Gridman's Grid Calibur End is delivered in the same way as Fighbird's Flame Sword Charge Up from The Brave Fighter of Sun Fighbird.
- The names of the five girls who were killed by Ghoulghilas and disappeared are references to toy companies, all of which sell Transformers toys.
