History Series / UltramanTriggerNewGenerationTiga

** In Episode 2, Trigger briefly turns completely red like Ultraman Tiga before his body finishes changing to Power Type.

* CoolGun: The GUTS Sparklence, which is normally a gun that can also turn into the TransformationTrinket of Kengo Manaka into Ultraman Trigger.

This series celebrated the 25th anniversary of ''Series/UltramanTiga'', hence the titular hero's blatant copy of the original Tiga as an alternate retelling of the former series intended for the current generation of audience. While ''Trigger'' is not set in the same "Neo Frontier" continuity as ''Tiga'' or its SequelSeries ''[[Series/UltramanDyna Dyna]]'', the show has hinted that there is a direct connection between the two series.

* ContinuityNod: Chairman Shizuma apparently knows about Tiga, briefly referring to him when giving Kengo a pep talk in the first episode.

** The last time Daigo was seen in ''Series/UltramanDyna'', he had retired from his service as a GUTS officer into the life of a Martian botanist. ''Ultraman Trigger'' on the other hand has Kengo Manaka as a Martian botanist before he joined GUTS-Select.

* SwissArmyWeapon: The Circle Arms that Trigger uses, it took on the appearances of whatever form he is in; aka a sword for Multi Type, a scissor claw for Power Type and a bow for Sky Type.

This series celebrated the 25th anniversary of ''Series/UltramanTiga'', hence the titular hero's blatant copy of the original Tiga as an alternate retelling of the former series intended for the current generation of audience. Whether there is any direct connection between the two universes remains to be seen. (There's at least indirect contact, as Series/UltramanZ will guest-star, and he's been involved with the rest of the Ultra franchise and even can directly use a share of Tiga's power in his Gamma Future form.)

** The name of Kengo's plant is called R'lyeh. It shares the same name of the planet that Tiga's BigBad Gatanothor came from.

30 million years prior, a giant of light sealed a great darkness away and went into slumber in Mars. In the present day, GUTS-Select team was formed, while Martian settlement resident Kengo Manaka lived his life as a botanist. Unfortunately his peaceful life is disturbed by a monster attack at the same time when the sealed darkness starts to move and evils of the past return. Kengo has a fated encounter the giant of light from the past, whose name is revealed to be Ultraman Trigger and becomes the user of the ancient giant of light's power.
