Ultraman Tiga Gaiden: Revival of the Ancient Giant[]
Seen in the beginning, Mahoroba, the passing-through monster slayer had killed Kurayaminoorochi with a single slash. Later, she took the legendary blade, Yaminagi no Tsurugi which was believed to be inside the monster all along that would be given to anyone whom killed the beast. At the same time, she also discovered the Bronze Sparklence that was among the rubble.
Trivia[]
- Kurayaminoorochi's suit was modified from the Mizunoeno Dragon suit.
- Kurayaminoorochi's roar was reused from the Toho monster Rodan 's roar.
- Kurayaminoorochi's death draws from ancient Japanese Mythology, specifically the tale of Yamata no Orochi and the tale of Grasscutter. Yamata no Orochi is a giant eight-headed snake recorded in the books Kojiki and Nihon Shoki. It was killed by a Shinto god, who then found a sword in the dragon’s tail. Kusanagi no Tsurugi is that sword's name. Mahoroba kills Kurayaminoorochi and finds the Yaminagi no Tsurugi.
