■ Special Interviews with Ultra Heroines are Included as a Bonus
The ULTRAMAN DECKER FINALE: JOURNEY TO BEYOND Blu-ray Special Edition will include interviews with actresses Yuka Murayama (Ichika Kirino), Sae Miyazawa (Sawa Kaizaki), and Kayano Nakamura (Dinas).
When Kayano Nakamura (who played a new character in the movie) was asked about the start of filming, Sae Miyazawa said, "When you stand on the set, especially for the first time, your nervousness doubles." Yuka Murayama added, "If I were you, I would definitely be very nervous. I'm sorry," Nakamura explained that, "Everyone made me feel very welcome from the moment I entered the waiting room, so I wasn't nervous when I stood on the set. I was just overwhelmed by how cool everyone was."
