As the force of evil reaches the Land of Light in Nebula M78, the record of the New Generation Ultraman became lost. The Dimensionizer (ディメンションナイザー, Dimenshon'naizā) is entrusted to Ultraman Zero, alongside the message which directs him to regain the lost Star Chronicles (スター列伝, Sutā Retsuden) and the bonds with the New Generation Ultras.[1][2][3]

Transcription: "Rosuto Hisutorī" (Japanese: ロストヒストリー)		January 28, 2023 (2023-01-28)

An unidentified force declares a challenge against the Land of Light residents by erasing all the New Generation Heroes. To counter this, Ultraman Zero is entrusted with the Dimensionizer, an item sent by Ultraman Decker from the future to restore the erased historical records. Z initially appears to take up the role and fails to do so, as Ultraman Ginga explains that Z left himself out from his own recollection. In addition, Zero had mass-produced multiple copies of said device for the entire New Generation Heroes to restore each of their own history records.
