Misuzu takes Hikaru to a private school, when in actuality is the Ginga Shrine, which holds the Ginga Spark. Also he meets up with his other childhood friends Kenta Watarai and Chigusa Kuno. Later that evening, Hikaru goes to the shrine and finds the Ginga Spark. When upon grabbing it, it shines a large light which shows Hikaru a battle between the Ultramen from different universes and kaiju from different universes called the Dark Spark War.He see's a glimpse of a dark giant which is known as Darker Gale and his brief encounter with Ultraman Ginga. Hikaru also realizes that the Land of Light is real and meets Ultraman Taro in his Spark Doll form. The next day, Darker Gale sends Alien Valkie to find people to use the Dark Sparks. As Taro is teaching Hikaru to use the Ginga Spark, Darambia appears as Thunder Darambia. Already in the form of Black King, Hikaru tries to fight back but is badly beaten, but when protecting Misuzu, Ginga's doll appears and Hikaru transforms into Ultraman Ginga. Now having the upperhand in the fight, Hikaru and Ginga start pushing back Thunder Darambia and finishes him with one of his special moves that send a powerful thunderbolt at the opponent: Ginga Thunderbolt.

While Alien Valky is dancing and teasing the Spark Dolls, Darker Gale approaches him and give Valky a new mission. Meanwhile, the illegal dumpers earlier had been sentenced into exorcism ritual by Hikaru's grandpa, Hotsuma whom believes that they have been possessed by evil spirit. As the ritual ended, it shocked all of them. Later, while everyone plays football, a maniac biker disturbs them and chases Misuzu. Hikaru saves her while Taro uses his Ultra Pyrokinesis to hold him off for Officer Kakky to catch him. But the maniac biker escapes again. At night, Hikaru thanked Taro for rescuing them earlier as Taro revealed that such information about Ginga are nonexist in the Land of Light archives. Taro later reveals all of the information of Ultraman to Hikaru. The next day, Hikaru's friends wake him up and Misuzu is nowhere to be seen. As Hikaru race to fnd her, he bumped into Tomoya. According to two of Hikaru's friends, he was a quiet, active and non social person however, he did gave Hikaru a warm welcoming when the two first met after bumping into each other while on his way from the Ginga Shrine. Hikaru found Misuzu at a swing. She revealed that during their second grade, they were playing at the woods but Misuzu got lost and the mad biker chase from yesterday had reflash the memory back. Alien Valky approach the previous mad biker and give him a Dark Dummy Spark and a Spark Doll. Upon seeking out his prey, the biker transformed into Kemur Man before her and chased the terrified girl through an empty school building. Eventually losing her pursuant, Misuzu was granted a brief respite when she bumps into a cop on patrol. However, Kemur Man re-appeared behind the unsuspecting policeman, coating him with his teleporting goo. As Kemur Man closed in on Misuzu, he was ambushed by Hikaru with a soccer ball to the head. Frustrated, the alien engaged Hikaru Raido in a one-sided brawl, with Ginga 's host getting brutalized by Kemur Man. Upon seeing how Hikaru was in trouble and remembering how he had always been there for her, Misuzu mustered all her courage and assaulted Kemur Man with a mop, subsequently landing a low blow to his crotch that caused the alien to writhe around in agony. Annoyed and angered beyond his limits, Kemur Man finally grew into his giant form. With Ultraman Taro's timely arrival, Hikaru quickly ultra-lived into Thunder Darambia to engage his now colossal foe. However, the Synthetic Monster was no match for Kemur Man's superior agility as his electrical attacks fail to connect. Getting cocky from it, Kemur Man exploited his speed advantage and ridiculed Thunder Darambia by farting into its face and stuffing a tree into its mouth. Deciding to put an end to Kemur Man's crazy antics, Hikaru ultra-lived into Ginga. The tables immediately turned against the alien's favor as Ginga's speed far outclassed his own. After being kicked back and forth repeatedly by the warrior of light, Kemur Man was forcefully launched into space. Ginga then took to the skies and exited into space, changing into his Fireball Mode as he charged towards the frantic alien. Despite it's comical attempt to swim away, Kemur Man was ultimately caught by the hero's Ginga Fireball finisher. Reverting back into a Spark Doll, the alien fell back to Earth, landing near his traumatized and burnt biker host. Hikaru and Misuzu reunited as they were watched by Tomoya.

The episode begins with a flashback of the Dark Spark War and a recap of previous episodes. Continued from the previous episode where Hikaru/Ginga is badly defeated by Jean Killer, Tomoya starts scheming with he needed Taro's help. Back at Hikaru's school, he and Misuzu reveals everything to Chigusa as they decided not to reveal it to Kenta but as Kenta just arrived, he bitterly went off with Alien Valky seeing him as a target. Hikaru went out and witness Jean Killer in front of him. He hears Taro's scream and uses Kemur Man to infitrate the robot and rescue him but only to discover Kenta with a Dark Dummy Spark and assuming Kenta as the robot's controller before they exited. Still, Taro is in Tomoya's hands. Back at the school, all of Hikaru's friends tried to pursue him but failed. Hikaru has no choice but to deliver him a fist, causing the Dark Dummy Spark to evapourise. When Hikaru search in his pocket, he only discover Doragory Spark Doll and not Jean Killer meaning it wasn't him who controlled it. The real Jean Killer appeared as Hikaru used Kenta's Spark Doll Doragory to fight followed by Ultraman Ginga. When both of them were falling from space, Ginga reverted back into his Spark Doll form due to the time limit, leaving Hikaru falling until he was saved by Jean-Killer himself. Shocked by this, Darker Gale sent Tiga Dark to destroy both Hikaru and Tomoya, revealing Tomoya's secret to Hikaru. Tiga Dark however unleash his blast again as the beam about to approaching them...

Back from the last episode, Jean-Killer finally catch Hikaru in time. Suddenly, a blast hit them, causing Hikaru to fall and Jean-Killer to untransform into Tomoya. The blast revealed to be came from Ultraman Tiga, whom now renamed Tiga Dark. The black giant proceed to fire his energy blast at them but reflected by Taro's Ultra Psychokinesis. As he unleashed his energy blast again, Taro quickly teleported the three of them to the school. But the attack however, burn Taro's head. All of Hikaru's friends were in disbelief that Tomoya was Jean Killer. He revealed that he told his father that he would follow his footsteps as an adult but only to be scholded, resulting him living under the man's shadow. Taro approached Tomoya and revealed that he also had a similar experience as a child but later comforted by his mother. Hikaru felt bad about him and decided to give him a dream: to defeat Ultraman Ginga. Tomoya agreed and summoned Jean Killer while Hikaru transform into Ultraman Ginga and fought. He defeated the giant robot with relative ease by phasing his hand into the cockpit and crushed the Dark Dummy Spark with his own hand. Later, Tiga Dark appeared and fought the Ultra. Alien Valky also watched the battle but turn into hostage for Ultraman Taro to stop the fight. Instead, the odds are unevened more when the black Ultra eventually enlarged Alien Valky and the duo began to overpower Ultraman Ginga. Tomoya saw that his dream would be crushed and shed tears, causing the Gunpad to appear and Jean Killer, now Jean Nine assisted Ginga with fighting the villains. Thus, Tiga's Spark Doll purified with Ginga spoke for the first time about Jean-Nine actions and Tomoya's conviction though he didn't answer Taro's questions. Tomoya leaves as he finally accepts Hikaru's friendship while reminded that he will surpass Hikaru/Ginga. Back in Darker Gale's room, his hand was seen reaching for a Spark Doll, only for the candle in the room to be burned out, darkening the room.

In Darker Gale's room, he DarkLives another Agent of Darkness, Gray to worshipping another Dark Dummy Sparks. At the start of episode till the middle, Hikaru rewinds back all about him and the adventures he went through. Then he asks Taro about the black giant's controller that fight him sometime ago but Taro have no idea on the identity of the controller though he only sense a mass evil power on it. While Officer Kakky is on a patrolling routine, suddenly he teleported to Hikaru's room while armed with a broom. He reveals that he tries to get out from the school but no avail. Chigusa tries to get out though later teleported to a room where she wondering what happened while comically posing like The Thinker statue which happened to be near her. Misuzu later tried but instead teleported to the gym room with a lot of dodgeballs. Kenta also did but finds himself at the school's vacant swimming pool. Tomoya figures out that all of them are inside a dimensional warp. All three of the students that warped returned to Hikaru's room. Taro remembers that the reason why he's still actives ever since the Dark Spark War is that when the elusive figure turns all Ultras into Spark Dolls, all Ultra Brothers (save Mebius and Hikari) and Taro's parents selflessly protect Taro by using themselves as shields from the DarkLive wave. Taro felt remorse, but Hikaru assures that they will worked out to save everyone that cursed from the DarkLive. Suddenly, Kakky teleported out from the school and Dark Galberos. Hikaru transforms into Black King and fights the Space Beast but failed. Ginga replaced the monster, with the battlefield turning into a wrestling arena and Taro into an announcer. Ginga appeared adorned in a red cape similar to the Ultra Brothers and Ultraman King. Ginga easily defeats Dark Galberos, but in the final round, Galberos used his duplicating/illusion ability only for Ginga to duplicate even more to surround the monster leaving the monster open for an attack for the real one who used Ginga Fireball to eliminate the monster. Before transforming back Ginga spoke again and said that every time a monster was brought back into the world the forces of darkness were growing stronger and that 'his' return was nearing. Alien Nackle Gray approaches at the principal Shirai and teases her about what she just witnessed, claiming that the master of the dark forces was atually someone in the school. Three men lead by Misuzu's father came to them, as the episode ends.

Continuing from where the previous episode left off, Hikaru thinks about how Misuzu would have felt about her father's actions. He and his friends were then called to a corridor with Seiichiro and the others, where a signboard with the school's virtues written on it is badly damaged. Principal Kyoko Shirai appears to be distraught over this as Hotsuma Raido comforts her. Super Grand King suddenly appears and Hikaru and Tomoya intercept it with Ultraman Ginga and Jean-Nine respectively. They struggle to hold it back before realizing the person controlling the choju were Alien Nackle and more shockingly, Misuzu Isurugi. Ginga suggests to Hikaru that the best way to save Misuzu is to go and talk directly to her. WIth that, Hikaru uses a technique that transfers him into the mind of Misuzu, the environment of which is a warped version of the school's exterior grounds. While all this is happening, Ginga is rendered motionless and Jean-Nine has to hold back Super Grand King all by himself. Kenta and Chigusa, with Seiichiro, are worried by the situation. Seiichiro decides to save Misuzu by himself in an attempt to redeem for his misdeeds, but Kenta and Chigusa state their resolve to aid their friend too. Suddenly, the Ginga Shrine symbol flashes and the three of them receive Ginga Light Sparks. Kenta picks Ultraman Tiga, Chigusa Ultraman, and Seiichiro Ultra Seven as they Ultra Live to assist Jean-Nine. Meanwhile, Hotsuma leads Principal Kyoko to apparently what used to be her room. It is in an utter mess. He confronts Kyoko about the darkness about her, and pulls back the curtains in the room to reveal the remaining Spark Dolls, much to Kyoko's shock. She then sees the various newspapers articles highlighting the problems with Furoboshi Elementary School. Hotsuma jogs her memory and she remembers that in a trance, she was the one that destroyed the signboard, and that she also picked up the Darkness Spark when the first Ginga Shrine burnt down, allowing Darker Gale to take control of her. Back to the fight, Seven, Tiga and Ultraman are running out of power faster than expected, and soon Grand King defeats them. A worried Tomoya asks Hikaru to hurry due to the extent of damage Jean Nine has received. Kyoko starts to lose control as Hotsuma tries to force the Darkness Spark out of her, her arms becoming those of Darker Gale's. Hikaru finally gets through to Misuzu and they both go back to Ginga. The Ultraman then defeats Super Grand King and Alien Nackle with his Ginga Sunshine mode. FInally, Hotsuma manages to purge Kyoko of the darkness, leaving both of them exhausted.

Hikaru as Ginga fought against Ultraman Dark but Ginga was no match for the Dark Ultra. Hikaru tried to see who was controlling the ultra and saw a familiar face controlling him. He realized that it was Seiichiro Izurugi, Misuzu's father. Depsite his best efforts, Ginga was soon defeated by the Dark Emerium Ray of Seven Dark. It turned out that Seiichiro was in possession of both Ultraman and Seven Spark Dolls, allowing him to switch whenever he wanted. Ginga was reverted back to Hikaru. As Dark Ultra Seven is about to use his Eye Slugger on the unconscious boy, Misuzu arrives and shouts for him to stop, causing Seven Dark to hesitate and back off. As Hikaru was resting,Tomomi Kuroki met Alien Nackle who gave her the Dark Dummy Spark after which she Darklived into Antlar. Misuzu, Kenta and Chigusa met Hotsuma Raido who gave them the Jasuyline Spark doll. Misuzu Ultra Lived into Jasuyline along with Kenta and Chigusa, but Jasuyline was no match for Antlar as it required all three of them to work in unison, and they struggled to control the Spark Doll. Meanwhile, Seiichiro used the Dark Dummy Spark to contact Hikaru. The two had a brief face off, with Hikaru questioning the motives of Seiichiro before the latter departs Hikaru's consciousness. Elsewhere, Tomoya and Officer Kakky engaged Alien Nackle, but were no match for him, as Nackle disabled the use of Tomoya's Gunpad by forcing it to stick to a wall out of his reach. Taro used his Ultra Mental powers to allow Tomoya to retrieve his Gunpad. Hikaru finally regained consciousness, and lived into Ultraman Ginga. As Ginga arrives he saved Jasuyline from Antlar, but Jasuyline was weakened and reverted back to Chigusa, Hikaru and Misuzu.Ginga faces Antlar. While Ginga was about to finish it off, suddenly Antlar was shot at by the Dark Wide Shot and destroyed. The attacker was revealed to be Ultraseven Dark. Ginga faced Ultraseven Dark for the second time. Ginga and the Dark Ultra use their finishing beams but were equally matched. Ultraseven Dark then transformed into Ultraman Dark and proceeded to give Ginga a beat down. Ultraman Dark fired his Dark Specium Ray against Ginga, but he was interrupted by an attack by Jean Nine. Intercepting him with a Dark Ultra Slash, Jean Nine converted into robot mode. Tomoya prepared to attack, but Ultraman Dark transformed into Ultraseven Dark and used Ginga as a shield, causing Tomoya to hesitate. Seven Dark then dropped Ginga and fires the Emerium Ray on Jean Nine, causing him to fall. Just as Jean Nine was about to be finished off, Ginga got back into the fight and turned the situation around, defeating Seven Dark with the Ginga Cross Shot. In the aftermath, Misuzu was disgusted by her father's actions and ram off. Alien Nackle took advantage of the situation and took control of Misuzu via a Dark Dummy Spark...

With the defeat of Super Grand King, Misuzu and her father Seiichiro finally make up. A large group of people start streaming in to visit the elementary school. Apparently, they do not wish for the school to be torn down due to its heritage as well. Previous Dark Dummy Spark users like the rowdy biker are also seen amongst the crowd, having redeemed themselves. All of a sudden, Seiichiro collapses to the ground, followed by everyone else. To Hikaru and Hotsuma's shock, they see Principal Kyoko Shirai holding the Darkness Spark. Hotsuma tries his ritual again but fails, resulting in the Principal being forced to summon Dark Lugiel. Hugg The Dark Spark's powers are cast upon everyone in the area Dark Lugiel proceeds to destroy the elementary school. Hikaru transforms into Ginga but before he can complete his rise, Lugiel intercepts him with a heavy kick, stunning the Ultra. Stepping on his archenemy, As the master of darkness looks upon his archenemy in contempt. Ginga, his color timer already flashing red, attempts to fight back, but in his weakened state (he could not reach full height due to his interrupted rise), he falls to a barrage of attacks from Lugiel and his energy is depleted. With the school down in flames, Taro is the only usable Spark Doll left. Tomoya, Chigusa and Misuzu soon fall unconscious as well. Darker Gale then uses the Darkness Spark's powers to spread the darkness over the world. Taro, desperate, recalls the words of Father of Ultra and Mother of Ultra. Officer Kakky awakes and starts to sing the school's song. Gradually, more and more people are roused from their unconscious state and sing the song as well. Kyoko also starts resisting Lugiel 's control and the light emerges from her. As a result of this, somehow, the powers of the Darkness Spark are suppressed. Ginga Light Sparks then began to materialize in the hands of everyone. They then combine their powers and break the curse on Ultraman Taro, allowing him to return to his full form. Knocking the Darkness Spark out of Lugiel's hands, Ultraman No. 6 proves to be more than a match for him, until Lugiel manages to retrieve the Darkness Spark and fires a beam at Taro, who counters with his Storium Ray. He soon realizes that Ultraman Ginga and Hikaru is the key to ending Lugiel's tyranny, and decides to send his light to Ultraman Ginga at the cost of being hit by Lugiel's attacks, swapping his ray for an energy shield. He vanishes soon after taking enough damage, but successfully revives Ginga, who returns to original size and takes the fight with Lugiel to the moon. Transforming their Sparks into tridents, the forces of light and dark battle fiercely with each other, before Ginga ultimately overpowers Lugiel's attack with Ginga Especially. With Dark Lugiel gone, all the Spark Dolls start to return to their original form and float towards the sky in the form of balls of light. Taro, then Ginga himself, thank Hikaru and friends before returning to where they came from. Jean Nine also sends a message, "GOODBYE FRIEND" to Tomoya through the Gunpad before departing. The four friends gaze at the skies and thank Ginga for everything he had done, and they dance as the credits roll with a somewhat reluctant Tomoya
