Ultraman comes to Earth to protect the planet from all kinds of monsters and alien invasions.

In Season 1 Episode 22, titled "Leave This Monster To Me," we follow the continued adventures of the Space Garrison fighter, Hideki Go, who transforms into Ultraman to defend Earth against a variety of deadly monsters. The episode begins with a group of people fishing on a beach when they hear a strange noise coming from the water. Suddenly, a gigantic monster named Gavadon rises out of the ocean and begins attacking the nearby city.
The Space Garrison quickly receives word of the monster's attack and sends out Ultraman to stop it. Ultraman engages in an intense battle with Gavadon, but the monster proves to be a formidable opponent. Gavadon has powerful claws and can release a toxic mist that can knock out Ultraman. Despite Ultraman's best efforts, Gavadon continues to attack and wreak havoc.
Just when it seems like Ultraman may not be able to defeat Gavadon, another hero emerges to take on the monster. An expert fighter pilot named Ryu Ibuki arrives on the scene flying his jet, which is equipped with powerful weapons and missiles. Ryu Ibuki is able to damage Gavadon enough to weaken it, making it more vulnerable to Ultraman's attacks.
Ultraman and Ryu Ibuki continue to work together to take down Gavadon. They use all of their strength, combat skills, and advanced technology to fight the monster and protect the city. After a long and difficult battle, Ultraman and Ryu Ibuki are finally able to defeat Gavadon and save the day.
However, the episode ends on a somber note, as Ryu Ibuki realizes that he may have accidentally caused more destruction than he intended during the fight. We see him get emotional about what has happened and question whether fighting monsters is really the right choice for him. The episode raises important questions about the cost of fighting monsters and the toll it takes on those who defend Earth.
