Ultraman (ウルトラマン Urutoraman) is an alien from a place called the Land of Light in Nebula
M78, who chased the monster Bemular to Planet Earth, and merged with Shin Hayata during his tenure there. He is
the first Ultra to visit Earth and defended the planet against Kaiju until he was recalled after his battle with
Zetton. Ultraman was given his title by his human host.
Ultraman's personality is shown through his host for most of his main series. Ultraman is shown to be fairly
clever, as he was able to outsmart his team and many enemies as well. His patience, however, is shown to be
questionable, as he initially resorts to aggression upon facing monsters. Although, he is shown to be passive,
if not persuasive when he needs to, as shown with Seabozu. He also is shown to be very concerned and sorry with
what he had done to Hayata, and even after the first wave of invasion had ended with Zetton, he insisted that
the man should live when Zoffy was going to relieve him of his duties.
Initially a basic Ultra Warrior, Ultraman arrived on Earth while pursuing an escapee of the Monster Graveyard;
Bemular. In his pursuit, he accidentally collided with Shin Hayata, an officer of the Science Patrol, who was on
a scouting mission in his jet. Hayata was killed in the same crash, but out of remorse, Ultraman gave Hayata his
own life, and merged their bodies, to keep him alive. After Bemular was destroyed, Ultraman stayed to protect
Earth from more threats, such as ancient monsters and alien invaders. Some memorable mentions are his encounters
with the Baltan, his close match with Alien Mefilas, and his defeat at the deadly monster Gomora. However, his
time on Earth came to a close after his battle with Zetton. His Color Timer was damaged in his fight with
Zetton, in which his enemy used a weapon that Ultraman had not expected--one specifically targeting the Ultra
Warrior's warning light. Zetton was left to be destroyed by the Science Patrol. Ultraman was retrieved by his
superior, Zoffy, and was taken back to their home world.
After Ultraman Jack was defeated by Alien Nackle and Black King, Jack was taken by Nackle's ships to his home
planet to be executed, however, just before he could be killed, Ultraman and Ultraseven appear, rescue and save
Jack by using the Ultra Star which revived Ultraman Jack and destroyed his ships. Jack thanked his comrades and
went back to Earth.
After an Ultra Sign was summoned, Ultraman and the other Ultra Brothers saw it and headed for Planet Golgotha.
After their arrival, each member asked the others what's wrong. Ace said he saw The Ultra Sign and Ultraman was
confused, as he assumed that Ace had summoned the Ultra Sign. Yapool summoned Baraba to destroy Earth and The
Ultras realized it was all a trap and that Ace has to go back to Earth, but a cold mist was unleashed that
weakened the Ultra Brothers. Ace hesitated to return to Earth, so Ultraman decided that they should give him
their powers to get Ace to Earth, but Ace wouldn't accept it because it would kill the Ultras, so Ultraman
slapped him in the face and encouraged Ace to go back to. The Ultra Brothers gave enough power to Ace, who flew
back to Earth, but the Ultras were pulled to their crosses and were to get tied on their crosses. Ace managed to
return to Earth and quickly fought Baraba. Yapool, however, warned Ace that if he kills Baraba, the Ultra
brothers would be killed by the entity himself. Unable to properly fight with the thought of his brothers in
danger, Barbara gained the upper hand until Ace reverted back to his previous forms of Hokuto and Minami as
Baraba returned back to Yapool, his mission a success. Ace Killer appeared and absorbed the Ultra's powers, and
took Ultraman Jack's Ultra Bracelet. Ace came back but had a tough battle with Ace Killer, so they give Ace
their energy from their Color Timers. Ace was able to defeat him with the Space Q. They went back to M78 while
Ace went back to Earth to fight Baraba.
