Ultraman X: Here It Comes! Our Ultraman (劇場版 ウルトラマンX きたぞ! われらのウルトラマン Gekijōban Urutoraman Ekkusu Kita zo! Warera no Urutoraman) is a Japanese film, serving as the film adaptation of the 2015 Ultra Series television series Ultraman X. It was released in March 12, 2016, in celebration to the 50th anniversary of the Ultra Series, as well as 50th anniversary of Ultraman and 20th anniversary of Ultraman Tiga, both appearing in this movie as supporting characters. [1][2]

The main catchphrase in this movie is "Zaigorg Strikes! Unleash the Beta Spark Armor!" (地獄(ザイゴーグ)襲来! 解き放て究極の力(ベータスパークアーマー)!! Zaigōgu shūrai! Tokihanate Bēta Supāku Āmā!!).

Synopsis

<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>

After a greedy treasure hunter Kurosaki accidentally opened an ancient seal within the Baradhi Ruins (芭羅慈(バラジ)遺跡 Baraji Iseki) located in Akita Prefecture, it unleashed an imprisoned monster, Zaigorg. Even with Ultraman X's power, he was greatly weakened by the monster's assault and worse, the X Devizer was rendered useless, rendering Daichi incapable of drawing out X's powers.

With Zaigorg chasing after the stone which sealed it prior in the Tokyo City, Xio launches the operation "Hell No. 3" (黄泉三号 Yomi san-gō) to counter Zaigorg and its minions.
