Daicon Film's Return of Ultraman

You're a kid with a camera, staging an Ultraman battle in miniature. But the monster keeps growing, a city-stomping threat. The stakes flip when Ultraman can't win alone. Anno's early work already bears traces of the anime legend he'd become. The film leaves you with a sense of childlike wonder.
