* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: [[spoiler:In light of the SSSP being apprehended for their part in seemingly messing with the Mefilas-Earth agreement, the Government Official wants to have them released in order for them to get back to work. Later, he backs off from having Ultraman/Kaminaga apprehended when the Extraterrestrial makes it clear that he won't let the government do the SSSP any harm without consequences.]]

to:

* KnowWhenToFoldEm: [[spoiler:When the official confronts Ultraman-as-Kaminaga, he uses intimidation to try and coerce him into entering custody. When Ultraman uses the same intimidation tactic, saying he will destroy Earth before Zetton does if the government interferes with the SSSP any further, the official backs off, recognizing the Extraterrestrial's potential as an threat.]]

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Downplayed, but he seems somewhat goofy in some scenes. As his catchphrase is to collect human sayings for appropriate usage, saying they are his "favorite". He enjoys himself on a playground's swing while explaining his EvilPlan to Ultraman, and ends his tension-laden meeting with Ultraman by asking to split the bill at the restaurant. He honestly comes across as he's having fun on Earth.

* ChronicHeroSyndrome: When Shinji spots a little kid still in the town that Neronga is smashing his way through, he immediately heads out to get the child to safety. This is already dangerous for him (thought it ''is'' part of his job), but he chose to do this before learning about the Ultraman's approach. [[spoiler:This results in Shinji getting killed when Ultraman first lands, sending debris flying and mortally hitting Kaminaga.]]

[[spoiler:Kaminaga is also one of ''two'' characters who use his own name, with the other being Ultraman-as-Kaminaga.]]

Added DiffLines:

* SugaryMalice: Mefilas never openly acts like a jerk. He might not even see himself as evil, but it is rather clear he wants to play humanity around for his own purposes. Like Zarab, he basically wants to fool humanity into giving him a position of power, while the humans believe they are being benefited from it.

* DubNameChange: In Japanese, the SSSP is officially called Kaiju Special Countermeasures Office, Specialized Team (short for '''禍'''威獣'''特'''設'''対'''策室専従班[[note]]Pronounced as ''kaiju tokusetsu taisakushitsu senjuuhan''[[/note]]), or ''Katokutai'' (禍特対) for short, a homophone with the ''Katokutai'' of the original Ultraman TV show. Its English name, a synecdoche of a ''protocol'' called SSSP that the unit enforces, is meanwhile a reference to the SSSP English acronym sometimes used to refer to the ''Katokutai''.
