* DarkerAndEdgier: The first ''Ultraman Cosmos'' movie revolves around Musashi's childhood and follows the misadventures of a bunch of kids while dealing with a corrupt human military leader. The sequel on the other hand deals with Scorpiss, a monstrous threat of apocalyptic proportions, sees Planet Juran which Musashi visited in the series completely massacred, and a finale with even higher stakes than before.

!!''Ultraman Cosmos 2: The Blue Planet '' provides examples of the following tropes:

* BehemothBattle: Sure enough there’s plenty of these! Besides Ultraman Cosmos and Ultraman justice duking out against the Scorpiss, there’s also the Reijas, kaijus on the side of good who helps battle the Scorpis.
* BigDamnHeroes: The eventual arrival of Ultraman Cosmos and [[spoiler: Ultraman Justice]] in the climax, turning the tide of battle.
* DeadlyDodging: At one point in the finale, with Shou and Jin (in the form of Reijas) fighting a numerically superior swarm of Scorpis, Shou manage to trick a Scorpis to fire its energy blast at him, which he dodges aside causing the blast to hit and destroy two other Scorpis.
* DeflectorShields: Thanks to Jin, the Earth Defense Forces are able to activate the planetary shields around Earth, effectively repelling the incoming Scorpiss horde. [[spoiler: Until Sandross orders half of the Scorpiss swarm to charge headfirst into a concentrated area of the shield and [[ActionBomb blow themselves up]], effectively weakening the shield until there’s an opening for the other half of the swarm to penetrate]]…
* FantasticRacism: Jin had a prejudice against humans and Earthlings in general, although he does warm up towards humans after the finale.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: In the ActionPrologue, we saw Planet Juran completely devoid of all life, having been wiped out by some horrifying alien entity. Which turns out to be Sandros and the Scorpis horde, which are on their way to Earth.
* GhostPlanet: Planet Juran’s fate. Musashi arrives on the planet in the opening scene hoping to revisit it (having been there once in the [[Series/UltramanCosmos TV series]]), and he evidently does NOT expect to find it in this state!
* GoodColorsEvilColors: The Reija, which are on the side of good, are [[BlueIsHeroic blue-tinged]] kaijus, much like Ultraman Cosmos or the usually blue-clad Alien Gyashis; the Scorpis on the other hand are rusty-brown, while BigBad Scorpis have a [[RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver dark-coloured shell with piercing red eyes]].
* GoodWingsEvilWings: Related to above, while the Reijas and Scorpis are both GiantFlyer kaijus, the gentle and benevolent Reija have organic wings based on angelfish and manta rays, while the violent and destructive Scorpis have wings resembling a hybrid between insects and bats.
* GreenAesop: The entire movie, right down to its title, is a reminder of the fragility of nature and the beauty of environment. Especially evident when the BigBad, Sandros, reveals its smoke-spewing ability, which corrodes its surroundings turning entire areas into giant wastelands.
* HawaiianShirtedTourist: When the first Scorpis arrives on Earth and began rampaging across the waterfront, several people could be seen fleeing from the scene, including two tourists in Hawaiian shirts – one who [[SkewedPriorities stops briefly to take a picture of the monster with his camera]].
* HenshinHero: Musashi, when he finally, finally manages to reawaken the power of Ultraman Cosmos in him at the DarkestHour…
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: Jin pushes Shau aside as a Scorpis comes at her at full speed, and was gored brutally by the Scorpis’ talons]]. [[spoiler: Subverted that in the last few seconds of the film, Jin turns out to have survived, and lives past the credits]].
* ImagineSpot: As the first Scorpis and a Reija started duking out on the waterfront, Musashi imagines what would happen if he still had Ultraman Cosmos’ powers in him – he would kick the Scorpis’ ass and save the day, as usual, but it quickly turns out to be a daydream he is having.
* InertiaIsACruelMistress: A fast-moving Scorpis learns the definition of this trope when it charges towards Ultraman Cosmos… only to receive the Ultra’s MegatonPunch at full force. [[DefeatEqualsExplosion Boom]].
* InferredHolocaust: The fate of the entire Alien Gyashi population, which is stated to be entirely wiped out when Sandross invades their home planet. Shau, Jin and the small population the audience saw are said to be what’s left of them; in a TroubledBackstoryFlashback we see the survivors being pursued through outer space by the Scorpis and having their spaceships blown up one-by-one.
* ItCanThink: While the Scorpis are mindless, destructive minions, their master, Sandros is a whole different matter, capable of formulating strategies [[spoiler: such as ordering Scorpis to suicide-bomb a fixed spot on the planetary shield until there is an opening wide enough to penetrate]], attacking military installations and communication systems first, and capable of thinking out of the box during battles. [[spoiler: Like spewing a massive atmosphere-enveloping smoke cloud that blocks out the sun to give it an advantage over the Ultras]].
* {{Kaiju}}: We have the friendly and benevolent Reijas who protect the seas, its EvilCounterpart, the insect-like Scorpis and the BigBad Sandros.
* KilledOffscreen: Parastan, the Sphinx-like protector of Planet Juran, which have a multiple-episode story arc in the [[Series/UltramanCosmos TV series]], turns out to have died right at the beginning of the film, killed by the Scorpis invasion.
* LandSeaSky: Land = Humans, Sea = Shau, Jin, and the aquatic-based Alien Gyashi, Sky = The Scorpis horde.
* MassOhCrap: The Earth Defense Force, the United Nations, military, civilians, Alien Gyashis, basically EVRYONE, [[spoiler: when the Scorpis breaks through the planetary shield and starts making their way into the city]].
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Shau quickly finds out how fun it is to spray champagne by shaking the bottle repeatedly. [[SorryToInterrupt Cue Jin walking in on her]].
* NonchalantDodge: During their one-on-one confrontation, Jin fires an [[HandBlast energy blast]] at Musashi, who dodges by moving his head aside. Subverted that Musashi ends up having a small graze on his cheek, which he promptly ignores while trying to talk down Jin.
* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler: Shau was assumed to be killed during the battle against the Scorpis horde, but after the climatic final battle he shows up on a nearby beach. Badly wounded, but alive.]]
* OrWasItADream: After passing out from diving, Musashi briefly saw Jin and Shau in what he assumes was a dream sequence, before waking up in a hotel room. He later saw the two of them, confirming that no, its not a dream after all.
* OurMermaidsAreDifferent: Shau is certainly a mermaid of sorts, one which can [[VoluntaryShapeshifting shift voluntarily]] between mermaid and human form, and can survive on land for prolonged periods of time.
* OurWormholesAreDifferent: An underwater wormhole leads to the Alien Gyashi’s home deep beneath the ocean.
* PlanetLooters: The Scorpis are HordeOfAlienLocusts, led by Sandross, who travels from planet-to-planet wiping out entire civilizations.
* SeaMonster: The Reijas, which are benevolent GentleGiant kaijus who protects the oceans and can bond with Jin and Shau to assist in fending off the Scorpis invasion.
* SpitTake: Shau, after trying champagne for the first time in her life, immediately spits it out, being unused to the taste of alcohol.
* StepIntoTheBlindingFight: As Ultraman Cosmos and Ultraman Justice deals with Sandross, the powerful monster proceeds to exhale massive quantities of acidic black smoke, enough to completely blot out the sun, forcing both Ultras to battle in complete darkness.
* UnderwaterCity: A portion of the film takes place in the Alien Gyashi’s hideout, which is located deep within the ocean but contains breathable air.
* WeddingDay: After the prologue, we have Musashi and friends attending a friend’s wedding.
