* HilariousInHindsight: Among the scrapped concepts for the Four Heavenly Kings was an alien that spoke with a British accent. In 2018, the franchise would introduce [[Characters/UltraSeriesUltramanTregear Ultraman Tregear]], an evil Ultra with mannerisms designed after a ''James Bond'' villain who speaks with a British accent in the English dub of ''Series/UltraGalaxyFightNewGenerationHeroes''. For bonus points, Tregear was Hikari's assistant before the latter's path of revenge shattered his worldview that Ultras were purely good and instigated his own turn to darkness, giving him a strong connection to this show's characters and lore.

** Teppei's encyclopedic and borderline otaku-level of knowledge on the Ultras and Kaijus' history make him some kind of prototype to Gai Ikari from ''Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger'' five years later, which is also an [[MilestoneCelebration anniversary series]] for ''Franchise/SuperSentai''.

* EvilIsCool: Alien Empera is a formidable EvilOverlord and master manipulator who has a history deeply entrenched in the Ultra Series' lore, and leaves quite an impression despite appearing towards the end of the series.

** Alien Mefilas III, the last of the Four Heavenly Kings serving Empera, is no slouch either; much like the original Mefilas from ''Ultraman'', he's a cunning foe with an impressive knack for manipulation, a code of honour and in addition retains the original's GracefulLoser traits, even opting to FaceDeathWithDignity when being executed for his failure.
* FanDislikedExplanation: A number of fans disliked the decision to make Alien Mefilas III a separate individual from the one that appeared in ''Series/{{Ultraman}}'', as the two are [[IdenticalStranger functionally identical]] to each other down to sharing the same voice actor, not to mention having the original Alien Mefilas make good on his word to challenge the original Ultraman again would make for an awesome ContinuityNod and give their showdown more emotional weight.

** Aya Jinguji, played by actress Aiko Ito, the girl whom Mirai meets and befriends in [[Film/UltramanMebiusAndTheUltraBrothers the first tie-in film]]. She's part of GUYS and apparently develops [[ShipTease feelings]] for Mirai and reappears in episodes 43 and 44, where her blossoming relationship with Mirai is briefly touched upon. However, she abruptly vanishes in episode 45, is only seen in a flashback in the first part of the finale and doesn't even return to say farewell to Mirai/Mebius when he has to go back to the Land of Light. You could say her subplot was LeftHanging.

* MagnificentBastard: [[EvilGenius Alien Mefilas III]] is the last of the [[CoDragons Four Heavenly Kings]] serving [[BigBad Alien Empera]] and Ultraman Mebius' most cunning foe, learning from the mistakes of his fallen teammates, he takes a more intelligent approach to defeating Mebius by brainwashing all of humanity to see him as the heroic protector of Earth and Mebius as the evil invader, including GUYS who he sends out to personally destroy Mebius themselves all while making sure the original Series/{{Ultraman}} does not interfere by clarifying that he won't harm any humans. Nearly succeeding at breaking Mebius and winning, Mefilas manages to retaliate effectively when Mebius uncovers his deceptions, even with GUYS and the original Ultraman's backup, up until the latter calls him out on breaking his own terms by fighting, which Mefilas recognizes signifies his defeat, he then leaves Earth without further trouble while [[WeWillMeetAgain swearing to return]], before quietly apologizing when executed for his failure.
