見逃し独占配信中!「ウルトラヒーローズEXPO 2024 ニューイヤーフェスティバル」の2演目が「U-NEXT」で1月21日(日)23-59まで配信！

Trivia[]

The daily guests that are singers sang their respective Ultraman Z songs live:
- Masaaki Endoh sang "Goshowa Kudasai Ware no Na wo!".^[22]
- Tasuku Hatanaka sang "Promise for the future".^[23]
- Nami Tamaki sang "Connect the Truth".^[24]
In this stage show, the Gamma Illusion clones of Tiga, Dyna and Gaia are able to move and fight autonomously. This would later occur in Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Destined Crossroad.
Children calling out the names of the Ultra Brothers as they appear is a reference to episode 34 of Ultraman Taro.
Ultraman says Ultraman Mebius's quote from Ultraman Mebius & the Ultra Brothers about what it means to be an Ultraman.
Keita Rikimaru, Juggler's suit actor, was also the show's action coordinator.^[4]
Despite Shinya Kaburagi being the planned special guest on January 4, the Grand Finale featured Yuka Ohta appearing via the stage screen instead.
Whilst this stage show was not included in the breakdown of the THE LIVE Series on TSUBURAYA IMAGINATION,^[25] footage of the show is shown in trailers for the series,^[26] and a "NEW GENERATION THE LIVE: Ultraman Z" logo is displayed when it plays on TSUBURAYA IMAGINATION, implying the stage show is now considered an entry into the series.^[27]
The 2024 showing was nigh-identical the original, but changed characters' positions to make use of the different shape of the stage, Geed did not switch to his Galaxy Rising form, and Destrudos replaced Grimdo.
