Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy Legends The Movie Timeline Explained: Your Questions Answered

When does it happen, and why in that order? The questions people ask about the chronology of Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy Legends The Movie (2009): time jumps, flashbacks, cause and effect between scenes and the correct order of events, each answered with spoilers.

Q1

Why did Ultraman Belial attack the Land of Light?

Belial attacked the Land of Light because he was consumed by an unquenchable thirst for power after being exiled from Ultra. Having allied with Alien Reiblood and become an Ultraman-Reionics, he sought to reclaim the Plasma Spark, the energy source that sustains the planet and the Ultras, in order to resurrect his monstrous army and dominate the cosmos.

  • belial
  • land of light
  • plasma spark
  • reionics
  • ultraman
Q2

Why did Belial kill Zarab right after being freed?

Belial killed Zarab because he had no intention of sharing power or forming an alliance. Zarab had merely served as a useful pawn to disable the prison guards and unlock his cell, and once the Giga Battlenizer was in Belial's hands, Zarab became expendable. This moment immediately establishes Belial as a villain who betrays even those who help him.

  • zarab
  • belial
  • giga battlenizer
  • prison
  • imitation ultraman
Q3

What caused the Land of Light to freeze over?

The Land of Light froze because Belial's assault on the Plasma Spark Tower disrupted the energy that sustains the planet. The Plasma Spark had originally been created to replace M78's dying sun, so when Belial targeted it, the entire world lost its warmth and light, transforming Ultra into a desolate, frozen wasteland.

  • plasma spark
  • land of light
  • frozen
  • nebula m78
  • belial
Q4

Who is Rei and what is his connection to Belial?

Rei is a Reionics, a human infused with Ultra cells that allow him to bond with and control Kaijus, much like Belial. This Reionics heritage makes him uniquely important to the fight, but it is also why Belial feels a kinship with him and tries to recruit him to the dark side during the Kaiju Graveyard battle.

Foreshadowing: Rei's unusual bond with Gomora and his latent powers hint early on that he is more than an ordinary human.

  • rei
  • reionics
  • gomora
  • kaiju
  • belial
Q5

Why could Rei use the Giga Battlenizer against Belial?

Rei could interfere with the Giga Battlenizer because he shares the same Reionics biology as Belial. That shared connection allowed him to disrupt the link between Belial and his army of Kaijus, buying Zero the opening needed to channel the restored Plasma Spark's energy and deliver the final blow inside Belyudra.

Foreshadowing: Mirai's earlier explanation of the Reionics curse establishes that only someone of that bloodline could challenge Belial's control.

  • rei
  • giga battlenizer
  • reionics
  • belyudra
  • plasma spark
Q6

Why did Ultraseven sacrifice himself in the final battle?

Ultraseven threw himself in front of a fatal attack meant for the human ZAP Spacy crew, absorbing the blow to save Rei and his friends from Belial. Knowing he was done for, he used his final moments to send his Eye Slugger to the desert planet as a signal that called Zero into the fight and revealed their father-son bond.

Foreshadowing: Ultraseven's earlier protective stance over the younger Ultras throughout the journey hints at the selfless choice he would ultimately make.

  • ultraseven
  • sacrifice
  • zap spacy
  • eye slugger
  • zero
Q7

Who is Ultraman Zero and why is he introduced so late?

Ultraman Zero is the son of Ultraseven, trained in secret by Ultraman Leo under the watch of Ultraman King. He was kept apart from the main conflict until Ultraseven's sacrifice triggered his arrival, allowing the film to use Zero's debut as both a heroic turning point and a generational passing of the torch.

Foreshadowing: Ultraseven's mention of another exiled warrior foreshadows that someone important is being prepared off-world.

  • ultraman zero
  • ultraseven
  • leo
  • ultraman king
  • lineage
Q8

How did Belyudra form from Belial's defeated monsters?

After Zero disarmed Belial of the Giga Battlenizer and cast him into molten lava, the lingering spirits of the Kaijus Belial had controlled fused together into a single colossal exosuit-like entity. Belyudra effectively channeled Belial's will, allowing the villain to keep fighting even without his primary weapon.

Foreshadowing: The earlier mention that Kaijus were 'birthed from the same radiation' as the Ultras hints that their spirits share a deeper bond with the Land of Light.

  • belyudra
  • belial
  • kaiju
  • graveyard
  • giga battlenizer
Q9

Why did Belial put Rei under his control during the fight?

When Rei refused Belial's offer to join him, Belial used his powers to forcibly trigger Rei's Burst Mode, hijacking the Reionics link so Rei would attack his own allies. It was a punishment for Rei's defiance and a way to cripple the Ultramen's fighting strength without having to fight them directly.

Foreshadowing: Mirai's earlier warning that the Reionics connection could be exploited foreshadows Belial using it against Rei.

  • rei
  • burst mode
  • belial
  • reionics
  • control
Q10

Why was Ultraman Belial originally exiled from the Land of Light?

Belial was exiled because his insatiable hunger for power pushed him to the brink of destroying his own world. After he nearly wrecked Ultra in what became the Belial Revolt, the Ultras had no choice but to seal him away in the Space Prison constructed by Ultraman King.

  • belial
  • exile
  • revolt
  • ultraman king
  • space prison
Q11

What is the Plasma Spark and why is it so important?

The Plasma Spark is the artificial sun created to replace the dying star of Nebula M78, and it is the source of life that powers the entire Land of Light. The same radiation that birthed the Ultras also gave rise to the Kaijus they fight, which is why losing the Plasma Spark would doom both the planet and its protectors.

  • plasma spark
  • nebula m78
  • kaiju
  • ultraman
  • light
Q12

How was Ultraseven revived after his sacrifice?

Ultraseven was revived because the restoration of the Plasma Spark after Belial's defeat renewed the life force of the Land of Light. With the Spark back in place, the Ultras regained enough power to resurrect their fallen comrade, allowing him to reunite with Zero in the final moments.

  • ultraseven
  • revived
  • plasma spark
  • land of light
  • zero
Q13

What role did Alien Shaplay play in Belial's plan?

Alien Shaplay was one of Belial's lieutenants tasked with ambushing the heroes on their way to the Plasma Spark Tower. She led a Dorako, Bemstar, and Salamandora to stop Rei and Mirai, and even corrupted Mirai's Mebium Brace to weaken him before being driven off by Ultraman and Ultraseven's Capsule Kaijus.

  • alien shaplay
  • dorako
  • bemstar
  • salamandora
  • mebium brace
Q14

How did Belial survive the destruction of Belyudra?

The film ends with a reveal of a scarred Belial emerging from the wreckage of Belyudra, implying that his Reionics resilience and sheer malice allowed him to endure the cataclysmic explosion. This cliffhanger sets up future conflicts and confirms that defeating him once was not enough to end his threat.

Foreshadowing: Belial's earlier ability to shrug off overwhelming force during the initial Land of Light assault foreshadows that he cannot be easily destroyed.

  • belial
  • survival
  • belyudra
  • cliffhanger
  • reionics
Q15

Why did the ZAP Spacy team go to the Land of Light at the end?

The ZAP Spacy crew was invited to the Land of Light because their help was instrumental in pulling Rei out of Belial's control and saving him from the Burst Mode corruption. As a reward, and to honor the bond formed between humans and Ultras, they became the first humans ever to set foot on the restored planet.
