* CompleteMonster:
** [[OmnicidalManiac Dark Lugiel]] ("Darkness Demon") is Ginga's EvilCounterpart and dark side. They split because Ginga wanted life to change and evolve naturally, while Lugiel wanted life to remain in stasis, which meant killing and petrifying everyone in existence. To do so, Lugiel started a tremendous war between the heroes and villains of the Ultra Series, with himself leading the charge on the villainous side--only to turn on them and use his Dark Spark to turn everyone on both sides into Spark Dolls. Ultraman Taro was still able to speak, but everyone else was [[AndIMustScream trapped as an immobile tiny statue]] until Lugiel decided to use their powers for something. Thanks to Ginga, Lugiel lost his own body, so he takes over a woman in Japan and uses his trapped minions to [[WouldHurtAChild torment the students]] all over an elementary school. Lugiel had no restraints about [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness throwing them aside when necessary]]—he kills Alien Icarus, reverting his body to a Spark Doll after [[YouHaveFailedMe Icarus fails]] and surrenders to the heroes. After Lugiel finally gains enough power to strike directly, he {{mind rape}}s dozens of people, inflicting them with such despair that they pass out, while Lugiel [[EmotionEater feeds on this to restore his own powers]]. When Ginga attempts to stop him, Lugiel goes for a sucker punch and then tortures a half-powered Ginga until he too loses consciousness. Lugiel is beaten, but comes back in the sequel as Dark Lugiel, returning after his body was restored by Alien Chibu Exceller, and used as a weapon against Ginga and Victory. Lugiel then takes his body back, kills Exceller via a shot to the back, and takes over his new enhanced Vict Lugiel form and preparing to use his powers to turn all of humanity into Spark Dolls. He gleefully [[EvilGloating gloats]] that he'd create the ultimate paradise...but it'd only be perfect for himself.
** [[BrainMonster Alien Chibu Exceller]] ("Brain Alien") is a depraved little alien and the [[BigBad source of the conflict]] in ''Ginga S''. He leads an invasion force to Earth, wrecking an entire city, to get his tentacles on the Victorium Element and resurrect his "Grand Master", Dark Lugiel. To this end, he razes a city with an army of giant robots and monsters. However, Exceller has loyalty to no one but himself, [[BadBoss coldly throwing his own subordinates aside when they are no longer of use]]. He commands his own sapient loyal right-hand woman, Android Zero-One, to self-destruct inside the enemy base because [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness it'd be too inconvenient to teleport her back]]. He allows Vorst, his other loyal servant, to be killed by the Japanese military, after taking over Vorst's mind and using him like a puppet to attack the main protagonists. As Five King, Exceller took great pleasure in beating and torturing Ultraman Ginga and Victory, pummeling them so badly that they turned to stone and the two giants nearly died for good. After having the benevolent kaiju Shepardon murdered, Exceller gains enough Victorium to resurrect Dark Lugiel as Vict Lugiel. However he did not revive his master's mind; Exceller betrays him as well, using his mechanized body as a puppet before [[EvilIsNotAToy Lugiel comes back on his own]]. Exceller shows no remorse for any of this, gloating that his many betrayed servants were simply pawns to be used and discarded as he saw fit.
** ''Film/UltramanGingaSTheMovieShowdownThe10UltraBrothers'': [[TheCollector Etelgar]] ("Super Space-time Demon") intends to [[MultiversalConqueror conquer entire universes]], firstly by abducting the Ultramen protectors of each universe and having them [[AndIMustScream trapped in suspended animation, still aware of their surroundings but completely immobile]]. Invading the peaceful Planet Zandt causing untold amounts of destruction, Etelgar had the princess of Zandt, Arina, captured and put through brainwashing turning her into his lackey; implanting FalseMemories in her mind to trick her into believing that her home planet was destroyed by the Ultras; and subjecting her to regular MindRape to enforce her loyalty. Intending to invade the universe of Ultraman Ginga and Victory, Etelgar nearly managed to have Ginga and Victory sealed alive in his collection, and later recreates a mountain-sized copy of the previous villain Dark Lugiel to destroy the city for his own sadistic pleasure.
* ContestedSequel: Ginga S turned out to be this. While some consider it a much-needed improvement in the writing and action departments, others criticise the show for lacking any real direction and basically being a ShootTheMoney series for the most part, with the characters and themes being considered much weaker than Ginga’s.
* NightmareFuel: Kemur-Man chasing Misuzu in the school at night.
* TearJerker: Episode #3 of has a lot of them.
