* ActorAllusion: This show actually invokes as many as past Ultraman actors for both young and older audiences to enjoy, so its a given if said actors put on some allusion to their past role in the Ultra Series.
** Episode 29 is one big one for Hiroko Sakurai, Kenji Sahara, Yasuhiko Saijou, and their respective ''Series/UltraQ'' characters Yuriko, Jun, and Ippei.
** Likewise, Episode 23 for Masanari Nihei, Susumu Kurobe, and Hiroko Sakurai. A photo of Professor Date, Chief Tomioka, and Professor Yoshinaga together when they were younger is ''literally'' of [[Series/{{Ultraman}} Ide, Hayata, and Fuji]], complete with Science Patrol uniforms.
** Kohji Moritsugu cameos in Episode 19 as an archaeologist. [[Series/UltraSeven Guess how he puts on his glasses]]?[[note]]Hint: Dyuwah![[/note]]
** Creator/NaoNagasawa plays the title girl of "The Daughter of Zetton", and at several points (when possessed by Alien Zetton), is seen in [[Series/NinpuuSentaiHurricaneger a ninja outfit]], like when infiltrating the DASH base and piloting King Joe.
** In "Welcome to Earth Pt. 1: The Science of the Baltans" and Part 2 as well, the policeman played by [[spoiler:[[Series/UltramanLeo Ryu Manatsu]]]] is wearing the [[spoiler:Leo Ring]].

After the [[DarkerAndEdgier darker and]] [[DeConstruction less kid-friendly]] [[ScrewedByTheNetwork and screwed-up spin]] on Ultraman in ''Ultraman Nexus'', Tsuburaya Productions returned to the franchise's roots, with [[MonsterOfTheWeek a new monster every week]] and an overall light-hearted tone. ''Ultraman Max'' is notable for [[MythologyGag several callbacks]] to previous ''Ultra'' series, from reintroducing several famous ''Ultra'' Monsters and casting players from the original ''Series/{{Ultraman}}'' to paying homage to the plots of past episodes and even referencing the first ''Ultra'' series, ''Series/UltraQ''. In contrast to the low ratings of ''Nexus'', ''Max'' was a huge success and set the tone for future Ultra Series like ''Mebius''.

* LighterAndSofter: Compared to the preceding series, ''Series/UltramanNexus''.''Series/UltramanNexus'', ''Max'' is much lighter in tone till the point of being a SelfParody of the ''Ultra'' series. However that doesn't mean the series does not have its dark moments.

Added DiffLines:
* StarterVillainStays: Much like ''Tiga'' before it, the show starts off with the attack from two kaijus, Grangon and Lagoras, both which Max managed to destroy after showing up in front of humans for the first time. However, both kaijus return halfway in the series, as Fire Grangon and Lagoras Evo? with Fire Grangon being killed offscreen by Lagoras so that the latter can absorb it's fire powers and return as a more dangerous foe to challenge Max.

* DenserAndWackier: The series' comedic elements are particularly strong, many of Max's fights against the monsters and aliens have a considerable amount of cartoony slapstick and there are also plenty of scenes that are simply way [[HamAndCheese too cheesy]] even by toku standards, not to mention the show's narrative can dip into outright SelfParody at times.
