"If the sun setting there is me, then the sun tomorrow will be you, Ultraman Leo."
- ―Dan Moroboshi to Gen
The Death of Seven! Tokyo is Sinking! is the first episode of Ultraman Leo. It features the new Ultra, Gen Otori/Ultraman Leo teaming-up with Ultraseven with Kohji Moritsugu respiring his role as his human form Dan Moroboshi who is also the main cast of Ultraman Leo.
Synopsis[]
Ultraseven is defeated by Alien Magma's pet monsters, the Giras Brothers. A new Ultraman arrives, one with a dark past....
Plot[]
Gen Otori, Ultraman Leo's human form, on Earth, trains at the training place. Meanwhile, Ultraseven is engaged in battle with two twin monsters -- Red and Black Giras. As Seven fights, the master of the two beasts, Alien Magma, appears and tips the scale further in their favor. After his leg is severely fractured by the Black Giras, a new hero appears and saves Seven from certain death. It's Ultraman Leo from the barren Planet L77 in the Leo Constellation. Magma and the Giras Monsters are driven off, but Dan Moroboshi is unable to transform back into Ultraseven.
Dan tells Gen he must protect the earth, and gets him to join MAC (Monster Attacking Crew), of which he is the captain. Gen brings the news of his membership to the sports club. He spends time with Kaoru. He then begins to train the intrepid Ultra, harshly. Soon, Red and Black Giras return, sinking an island.
Gen reports to MAC. He believes Alien Magma is behind the sinking, but no evidence is found. Then the monsters attack Tokyo, devastating it. The sports club flees, but Gen transforms. Leo battles the monsters, but is no match for them.

- Strangely, Ultraseven used modified Leo grunts.
- One of the snippets of the civilians escaping is reused from a small number of Showa era Godzilla films (which said films also reuse the snippet).
Errors[]
- The most notable error in this episode is Ultraseven's helmet: His ears are missing on his helmet, and the Eye Slugger was (possibly) not well-adjusted.
