** Zetton's revival in the finale is supposed to be an OhCrap and an utterly horrifying moment but the Zetton suits is noticeably worse than his first appearance with its floppy horns and fat appearance making it look like a bunny rabbit. It's made worse when official sources claim this version is supposedly stronger than the original, but his goofy design and poor showing in combat indicate the opposite.

** It’s hard to overstate how much this series not only changed the Toku genre but Japanese fiction in general. With it’s blending of sci-fi/fantasy elements and more down to earth drama and [[{{Deconstruction}} it’s attempt to reflect the real world.]] The main character, Hideki Goh himself was quite influential with this HotBlooded, [[TheEveryman Everyman]] personality inspiring many other Japanese heroes. A Westerner watching this show almost 50 years later would probably see it as a regular tokusatsu show.

** Ultraman Jack defeating Zetton in the final episode may not seem like a huge deal to modern audiences and millennial fans of the series, considering multiple Ultras post-2000 such as Powered, Max, Mebius, Zero, Orb and several others have defeated Zettons in their respective shows. But remember during the episode's airing, Zetton is a monster reputed to be "undefeatable" for ''five'' years, until Ultraman Jack's victory restores faith in the Ultra-heroes.

* SeasonalRot[=/=]ToughActToFollow: Many fans feel that the series should have ended with the Alien Nackle/Black King two-parter (considered to be among the best episodes of the ''Franchise/UltraSeries''), as the remaining episodes had lackluster writing and special effects, as well as excessive alien invader storylines.
