Family - S2-E8

Trivia: **SPOILERS** When the demon takes over Ciri's body she dreams about being back at the party her grandmother had at their castle, and she sees her grandmother, Mousesack, her mother and her father. When she starts to question if it's really her grandmother, Mousesack and her mother all turn to ash and blow away. If you pay attention, you'll notice that her father does not turn to ash which is a foreshadow for later when it's revealed that he is in fact still alive.

Ultraman: A Special Effects Fantasy Series picture

Saraba Urutoraman - S1-E40

Trivia: The unused script of the final fight between Ultraman and Zetton was entirely different, as it shows Zetton ripping apart Ultraman's colour timer. In the end, Zoffy will save Ultraman and defeat Zetton. However, the writing team decided not to use it because it was deemed too violent, and it portrayed Ultraman, the main hero, being cut. This alternate ending can also be seen in the game Ultraman Fighting Evolution 3 during the Ultraman vs Zetton mission.
