Light does not need to prove anything. It gives hope an answer.

· An immortal girl wields the power of Tiga, watching over humanity through a century of turmoil and kindling light in the shadows.

· Beauty is her mask, while time is both her heaviest shackle and her sharpest weapon.

Before dawn in 1900, a girl forgotten by time accidentally touches the first ray of light from Orion, gaining the eternal power of Ultraman Tiga and an immortal life. She is breathtakingly beautiful and skilled at wielding her charm as a weapon, yet a pure flame of justice burns within her. From the flames of the Eight-Nation Alliance invasion to the smoke of the world wars, from the shadows of the Cold War to the dawn of the new millennium, she moves through the hidden corners of the world under different identities. At times she is the most dazzling socialite in a Paris salon, at others a mysterious businesswoman in Shanghai, or an unknown consultant to NASA. Whenever strange phenomena encroach upon reality and ancient monsters crawl out through fissures in history, she transforms into light and silently protects human civilization. This is both a supernatural epic of resistance spanning a century and the eternal journey of an immortal girl seeking freedom and liberation. She protects humanity, yet also searches for the meaning of her own existence.
