* AwesomeButImpractical:
** Shining Ultraman Zero is one of Zero's most powerful forms, capable of controlling time itself the way that Zero wants it, mostly by rewinding it and it comes with the severe drawback of draining his energy greatly and leaving him unable to so much as move afterwards, sometimes it can even take him entire days if not weeks to fully recover from the sheer strain, and his opponents can react to it and escape from a safe distance, thus Zero only uses it in truly dire situations when he has an opening to use it.
** Ultimate Shining Ultraman Zero is even more impractical, as it has even stronger power than Shining Zero but comes with even bigger drawbacks as when Zero tried to use it against Absolute Tartarus he ran out of energy instantly and got throughouly trounced for his troubles.
* BadassBoast:
** His first one came in ''Film/MegaMonsterBattleUltraGalaxyLegends'' where he gives it as his prelude to his ass-kicking towards Belial.
->''"I am Zero, Ultraman Zero, the Son of Seven!"
** His catchphrase also counts as this. Often boasting how he is far ahead of his opposition in power and they got to take his entire lifetime to catch up to him.



* CallingYourAttacks: Has a habit of doing so in ''Ultra Zero Fight''. It would be carried on to future appearances and is now a staple of his character.
* {{Catchphrase}}: You're 20,000 {{years too early}} to defeat me!
* CharacterDevelopment: Zero starts out as a cocky and rebellious Ultra who only understands physical strength and nothing else. After his years of training under Ultraman Leo he grows kinder and eventually wiser throughout his following adventures in the franchise. By the time of ''Series/UltramanZ'' he's left most of his older flaws behind and shows far more skill in leadership and understanding what is it like to be an Ultraman.

to:

* BornWinner: He is the son of a very famous Ultra who himself belongs to one of the Land of Light's most respected families and who have great influence as part of the Space Garrison, he has multiple power-ups either from his own person or granted specifically to him.
* BrilliantButLazy: Was this in his youth, Zero had great potential and power but he wasn't one to care about academics or earning them instead wanting to take the power by force without putting in the effort that his predecessors put in, this took a darker turn when it motivated him to almost take the Plasma Spark which resulted in his banishment until Leo beat some discipline into him to make him move past this flaw.

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ultraman_zero.png]]

The son of Series/UltraSeven. An exceptionally powerful young Ultra, he was banished from the Land of Light after attempting to steal the planet's power source, the Plasma Spark. After years of training under Series/UltramanLeo, he eventually returned and proved himself a worthy hero in ''Film/MegaMonsterBattleUltraGalaxyLegends''. Afterwards, he would begin trekking the multiverse, pursuing after all sorts of powerful villains, clashing with Belial time and time again. He has since become one of the most imortant Ultras in the ''Franchise/UltraSeries'', frequently crossing over into other series, most notably ''Series/UltramanGeed'', where he is one of the main characters. He has no single human host, but always uses the Ultra Zero Eye to transform.

He even gets a fanboy desiring to be his apprentice in Series/UltramanZ.
* TheAce: Zero is practically an ideal Ultra, being strong, powerful, having many friends, has defeated countless evils throughout the years and in various universes and on top of that has managed to save the Multiverse several times over. Though this does [[BookDumb not]] apply to his academic skills, however.
* AnatomyArsenal: Like his father before him, Zero has multitude of weaponized body parts to employ:
** First, the iconic Eye Slugger, only that Zero has ''two'' instead of one and he can control both to not only employ as ranged weapons but also combine them into a sword.
** His forehead has his own version of the Emerium Beam just like his father's.
** He can also use the Wide Shot with his arms in an L-pose.
** His kicks can be set on fire to increase in striking power (thanks to training from Ultraman Leo).
* AndIMustScream: When Belial takes over his body in ''Ultra Zero Fight'', Zero can only helplessly watch as Belial wrecks havoc and kill his teammates with his body. He manages to free himself from this through HeroicWillpower and his Shining Ultraman Zero transformation.
* ArchEnemy: To Ultraman Belial. Ever since Zero defeated the evil Ultra in ''Ultra Galaxy Legends'', the two have been rather fierce foes and Belial will often target Zero in plots of revenge or even in plots that didn't involve Zero once the latter gets involved.
* BattleBoomerang: His Twin Sluggers serve as this, as he can throw them to fight opponents form a distance and then they return to him. He can do a variety of tricks with their paths as well, and they can also be deflected, but even then they'll always go back to him.
* BerserkButton: Has a few.
** He does not like seeing bullies or powerful people tormenting others with their strength instead of protecting them.
** Anyone who treats their "friends" as trash or holds standards for who they can consider that also earn his ire.
** He does not like being called "foolish".



* CallingYourAttacks: Has a habit of doing so in ''Ultra Zero Fight''.
* ChestBlaster: His Zero Twin Shoot attack, which fires a large beam from the Twin Sluggers when they are mounted on his chest.
* MultiformBalance: In the ''Ultra Zero Fight'' segment of ''Ultraman Retsuden'', he gains this ability thanks to [[Series/UltramanDyna Dyna]] and [[Series/UltramanCosmos Cosmos]].

to:

* BigBrotherMentor: Takes this role towards other younger Ultras, particularly most of the New Generation Heroes who all look up to him as a big brother thanks to his mentorship, help and advice to them.
* BoisterousBruiser: Wastes no time in telling his opponents that he's a strong and powerful warrior before or during fights.
* BookDumb: Zero isn't really "dumb" in the classic definition, but he's got a bad case of preferring to do things in the heat of the moment instead of thinking them through much. ''Series/UltramanZ'' voice dramas would even reveal that he skipped the Land of Light's school, causing him to not know basic information such as Neronga's invisibility and causing his student, Ultraman Z, to flunk out on an exam because of Zero's lack of knowledge on topics.

chest. He can shoot a stronger version as Zero Beyond.
* ContainmentClothing: The Techtor Gear was a suit that he wore during his exile, which limited his strength and outright nullified his other Ultraman powers, including flight.
* CoolBigBro: Tends to act as this for his teammates and younger Ultras that he assists, with many of them looking up to him and admiring his many deeds.
* CriticalAnnoyance: After adopting a human host, he's had to contend with the three-minute rule all Ultras had to face with his color timer blinking whenever his time is running out.
* CurbstompBattle:
** In his debut, he dishes one of these to Belial and his army, disarming him with ease and then blasting him into the magma rivers of the Monster Graveyard right after plowing through the remnants of his 100 Monster Army in minutes.
** ''Revenge of Belial'' shows him easily defeating Belial's Legionoids whenever he confronts them, he also shoots down the Spaceship carrying Darklopses with ease.
** In ''Film/UltramanSaga'' he deals with a whole army of Legionoids very quickly at the start of the film.
** Before facing the Four Beast Warriors of Hell in ''Series/UltraZeroFight'', Zero has to fight four lower-tier monsters, also revived by Alien Bat Gurashie - Bemular, Gudon, Sadola and Telesdon. Zero wrecks all four of them in under a minute.
* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: The Shining Star Drive from Shining Zero allows him to reverse time and even create pocket dimensions, but it cost him a lot of energy, which can tire him out for days.
* DemonicPossession: Suffers this in ''Ultra Zero Fight'' when Belial {{Body Surf}}s into Zero's body after the latter defeats him as Armored Darkness Belial, trapping Zero within his own body and changing Zero's appearance to match his own. Zero manages to use his Shining form to kick out Belial's spirit.
* DespairEventHorizon: Falls into this when Belial kills all of his teammates in ''Ultra Zero Fight'' using his body as Zero Darkness, but manages to snap out of it and regain his hope in order to protect Moroboshi the Pigmon, who is about to be killed for Belial's amusement, which gives him his HeroicSecondWind to defeat Belial.
* DimensionalTraveler: Though at first he could only move between worlds with assistance from other Ultras, after obtaining his Ultimate Aegis, Zero is capable of travellign to other worlds freely.
** He travels to the Reverse Space World in ''Revenge of Belial'' and returns back to the World of the Land of Light once he defeats Belial in there.
** In ''Ultraman Saga'' he travels to the universe where the film takes place to combat Hyper Zetton, meeting Ultraman Cosmos and Dyna along the way before returning to his own universe after Hyper Zetton is defeated.
** In ''Ultraman Ginga S: The Movie'' he travels to the World of Spark Dolls to confront Etelgar and rescue the captured Ultras.
** ''Ultraman X'' has him arriving at the World of Ultra Flare to capture Alien Nackle Bandero and his Black King, in the movie he returns in order to help fight the threat of Zaigorg and his minions.
** In ''Ultraman Geed'' he and other Ultras arrived at the World of Side Space where Belial's Crisis Impact and Omega Armageddon took place, after King saved the Universe by merging with it Zero returned to deal with the various threats in it, bonding with human salaryman Reito Igaguri. He left the world once Belial was defeated for good. He returns much later with the Ultimate Force Zero in order to confront the threat of Gillvalis.
** ''Ultraman Taiga'' has him travel to the World of Taiga to assist his cousin by giving the Plasma Zero-let to fight stronger foes before leaving back to the Land of Light.
** ''Ultraman Z'' features him and the titular Ultra chasing the Kaiju Genegarg to the World of Ultra Medals where he ends up temporarily trapped into a black hole, after breaking free and then helping Z and Geed defeat Celebro's Belial Fusion Beasts he leaves for good to resume fighting the threat of the Absolutians.
** ''Absolute Conspiracy'' has him travelling to the World of [=U40=] in order to recruit Ultraman Joneus into the M78 Ultra's cause against Absolute Tartarus.
* DimensionLord: As Shining Ultraman Zero one of his powers is to create pocket dimensions in which he can alter the flow of time to either go slower or faster than outside, which can help him when he needs to train someone for months in what would otherwise be a few hours or days.
* GenerationXerox: In ''Ultraman Geed'' he ends up in a similar position to the one his father, Ultraseven, was stuck in himself in ''Series/UltramanLeo'' as his TransformationTrinket ends up damaged, leaving him weaker than he would usually be and forced to take on a mentor role towards a young Ultra. Unlike his father, however, he could at least still transform into his Ultra form during that time.
* GoldColoredSuperiority: His most powerful forms all have a golden glow to them. Shining Ultimate Zero can manipulate time, Zero Beyond Galaxy Glitter takes the capacities of the Beyond form UpToEleven and Ultimate Shining Zero combines the abilities of Ultimate Zero and Shining Zero, though it's also a DangerousForbiddenTechnique.
* GoodCounterpart: To Belial, both were heroic Ultras who grew ambitious and uncaring and very nearly stole the Plasma Spark to empower themselves and were banished from the Land of Light for it. However, eventually Zero was able to learn better and redeemed himself from his actions. Also while Belial surrounds himself with minions but sees them as disposable pawns at best, Zero surrounds himself with many friends he's made through the years and will give his life for them.
* GuardianOfTheMultiverse: After the events of ''Revenge of Belial'' Zero took on this role following the creation of the Ultimate Force Zero, as he and his teammates patrol the Multiverse looking out for threats to it. This in turn usually leads him to be a guest star in various of the New Generation shows, usually following a criminal from a different universe into the one where the New Gen show takes place in.
* FinishingMove: Has a bunch depending on the form.
** In his base form he has the Wide Zero Shot, a beam fired form his chest with his Eye Sluggers empowering it.
** As Ultimate Zero he can use Ultimate Zero Finale, a charged attack fired with the Ultimate Aegis in a bow-like fashion.
** As Shining Ultimate Zero he instead gets a stronger version of his Wide Zero Shot.
** As Zero Beyond he also gets a stronger version of his Zero Shot named Beyond Zero Shot.
* ForcedToWatch: Zero's mind is still there when Belial forcibly fuses with him into Zero Darkness, but he's powerless to prevent his teammates from being killed and descends into the DespairEventHorizon once all of them are killed.
* FormerTeenRebel: When he was younger, Zero had a rebellious un-lawful streak and preferred to get stronger through simple fighting rather than learning any values of it. It culminated in him trying to take the Plasma Spark in a misguided attempt to become stronger, only to be stopped and arrested by the Ultra Brothers and then sent to be disciplined by Ultraman Leo for years through TrainingFromHell which ended up helping shape him into a more responsible figure in spite of retaining some rebellious attitudes.
* FusionDance:
** In ''Ultraman Saga'', Zero fuses with Dyna and Cosmos in order to form Ultraman Saga, as means of being able to stop Hyper Zetton.
** ''Ultraman Geed'' sees him using the New Generation Capsules of [[Series/UltramanGinga Ginga, Victory]], Series/UltramanX and Series/UltramanOrb to become Zero Beyond.
** ''Ultraman Z'' has a form shown only in supplementary material where he uses the Ultra Medals of Series/{{Ultraman}}, Series/{{Ultraseven}} and Series/UltramanAce to become Gransaberd Zero.
* HealingHands: Zero can employ his Ultraman light to purify other living beings of evil influence and energies, such as freeing Mirror Knight from Belial's dark plague.
* HenshinHero: Per tradition for Ultras, Zero is this, he usually transforms with the help of human hosts that he meets in his adventures, with his definite host seemingly being [[Series/UltramanGeed Reito Igaguri]]. A few stage shows depict him instead taking on a human form to walk around, known as Shin Moroboshi.
* HeroicSacrifice: Has had a few throughout the years.
** In ''Revenge of Belial'' he keeps up Mirror Knight's shield to block Arch Belial's Deathcium Beam and very nearly dies when his Color Timer runs out, he's luckily resurrected by Ultraman Noa and given power to transform into Ultimate Zero.
** In ''Geed'' he sacrifices himself in the aptly-titled episode 7, "Sacrifice", to protect Reito Igaguri from Kei. He gets better as well.
* HeroicWillpower: When Belial possesses him and kills almost all of his teammates, Zero's will eventually lets him expulse the spirit of his nemesis from his body and achieve his Shining Ultraman Zero form.
* HotBlooded: Even after CharacterDevelopment, Zero remains a hot-headed Ultra who rushes into battle with all due excitement and is not above trash-talking, quiping and [[CallingYourAttacks calling his attacks]].
* IdiotHero: Befitting his Shonen hero-like traits, Zero isn't exactly the most throughtful person ever and often tends to suffer some blunders as a result of his recklessness
* ImposedHandicapTraining: Zero was trained by Leo this way, placing a restrictive suit on him while sparring in order to help develop his skills and strength without relying on his powers while simultaneously learning life lessons from his mentor.
* InUniverseFactoidFailure: Aside from the implication that he didn't attend school, Zero seems to lack knowledges on certain monsters such as Neronga and misinterpreted Sevenger's owner being Leo instead of his crippled (at the time) father. The latter came to bite him when Z failed the entrance exam for Space Garrison because of it.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: His first use of Shining Star Drive left him not only exhausted, but unable to remember the events up until that point.
* LetsGetDangerous: His usual {{Character Tic|s}} is a firm indication that Zero's about to stop playing around and is instead going to take the next fight very seriously.
* LightIsGood: In contrast to his dark archnemesis, Belial, Zero continues the Ultraman's usual theme of representing light and the side of good. All of his most powerful transformations take the light aspect UpToEleven.
* LightningBruiser: Like all Ultras, Zero is both fast enough to mow down armies of monsters without breaking a sweat and becomes even faster when flying, and strong enough to handle and outmuscle even mighty foes such as Red King.
* MagneticHero: Zero in general is a friend magnet, starting with his rival-turned-friend, [=GlenFire=], then with the other members of the Ultimate Force Zero. Later he becomes friends with Ultraman Dyna and Cosmos, the New Generation Ultras and various other characters such as his third human host, Reito Igaguri and Reito's family.
* MentorOccupationalHazard: A non-fatal example in ''Ultraman Z'', he gets sucked inside a black hole at the hands of a Bullton fired at him by Genegarg while he's chasing the latter monster and ends up forced to entrust Ultraman Z with the Ultra Medals and his Z-Riser. He eventually frees himself from this fate by using [[ResetButton Shining Star Drive]] and comes back in the series to assist his pupil against Celebro's Belial Fusion Beasts.
* MultiformBalance: In the ''Ultra Zero Fight'' segment of ''Ultraman Retsuden'', he gains this ability thanks to [[Series/UltramanDyna Dyna]] Dyna's]] and [[Series/UltramanCosmos Cosmos]].Cosmos']] powers which he gained after their fusion into Ultraman Saga. In addition to his pre-existing power-ups and then some



* MyHeroZero: His name and one of the most powerful of all the Ultra warriors.
* NotSoDifferent: Tried to steal the Plasma Spark, just like Belial. However, unlike Belial, he realized he was wrong to do so.
* PlayingWithFire: His Garnet Buster in Strong Corona mode is a beam of fire.
* SuperMode: Ultimate Zero in ''Film/UltramanZeroTheRevengeOfBelial'', Shining Ultraman Zero in ''Ultra Zero Fight'', and Ultraman Zero Beyond in ''Series/UltramanGeed''.

to:

** SuperMode: Ultimate Zero, which he gained in ''Revenge of Belial'' with the power of the Shield of Baradhi; in ''Series/UltramanGeed'' he gains Ultraman Zero Beyond as replacement for most of his lost transformations, which he achieves with the New Generation Capsules (using the power of [[Series/UltramanGinga Ginga, Victory]], [[Series/UltramanX X]] and [[Series/UltramanOrb Orb]]) and combining them with his Ultra Zero Eye.
* MissingMom: The identity of his mother is so far unknown with even supplementary materials having no mention of who she is.
* MyHeroZero: His name He's called Ultraman Zero and is one of the most powerful Ultra warriors of all time.
* NextTierPowerUp: Zero is probably
the Ultra warriors.
* NotSoDifferent: Tried
Ultraman that plays the trope the straightest out of them all, his base form is weaker than his Ultimate Zero form and then this form is surpassed by both Shining Ultimate Zero and Zero Beyond, which in turn are small potatoes next to steal Ultimate Shining Zero and Zero Beyond Galaxy Glitter, respectively.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Using [[ResetButton Shining Star Drive]] allows him to bring back his deceased teammates after Zero Darkness (him while possessed by Belial) killed them but [[spoiler:he unwittingly resurrected Belial and Jahtar while at it.]]
* OneManArmy:
** In ''Ultra Galaxy Legends'' Zero brings down all of the remaining members of Belial's 100 Monster Army that his fellow Ultras hadn't killed yet and then takes down Belial, a OneManArmy himself.
** In ''Ultraman Saga'' Zero plows through a massive army of Legionoids all by himself.
* TheParagonAlwaysRebels: He was a powerful and impressive Ultraman since childhood, but this fed his ego and belief in strength and he arrogantly tried to take
the Plasma Spark, just like Belial. However, unlike Belial, he realized Spark to empower himself, only to be stopped by the Ultra Brothers, arrested and then exiled. However following some TrainingFromHell courtesy of Ultraman Leo he was wrong able to do so.
redeem himself and turned back to the light.
* PlayingWithFire: His Has shown a limited usage of fire to boost his attacks, not unlike his mentor, Leo. Also his Garnet Buster in Strong Corona mode is a beam of fire.
* PreAssKickingOneLiner: Either "[[YearsTooEarly You're 20,000 years too early to defeat me]]" or "[[ThisIsUnforgivable I won't forgive what you've done]]" precede him giving a beatdown. In his first appearance it was instead "[[IAmXSonOfY Zero, Ultraman Zero. The son of Seven!]]" which he said to Belial before mowing down the remnants of his 100 Monster Army and then Belial himself.
* PowerLimiter: The Techtor Gear he was forced to wear during his TrainingFromHell at Ultraman Leo's hands served this purpose, restraining most of Zero's power to prevent the young Ultra from trying to rely on his powers and instead fight hand-to-hand. If Zero tries to exert power, the armor tightens further and further, limiting him even more.
* RapidFireFisticuffs: His speed allows him to throw punches faster than opponents can react to them, allowing him to overwhelm foes with sheer speed.
* RedIsHeroic: Like all Ultras from the red tribe, he's got red in his color scheme and he's a valiant hero of justice, despite starting out as an immature power-hungry warrior.
* ResetButton: Shining Star Drive can do this, as it reverses time and Zero can use it to undo certain events that he desires, such as death or even to nullify a black hole and escape it.
* SecretLegacy: For most of his youth up until the events of ''Ultra Galaxy Legends'', he had no idea that he was the son of Ultraseven, and by extension a family member of Ultraman Taro, Father of Ultra and Mother of Ultra. Ultraman King reveals this to him when Seven calls for Zero's help during his fight in the Monster Graveyard.
* SchoolIsForLosers: In his rebellious youth and even after, he tends to view school in a negative light and never finished resuming his studies, even after his redemption and return to the Land of Light following his exile. This ended up biting him in the butt as shown in ''Ultraman Z'' voice dramas where the titular Z ended up flunking an exam because Zero gave him some uninformed academic help.
* ShutUpHannibal: In ''Ultra Zero Fight'' after Alien Hipporito Jathar manages to get the drop on Zero and petrify Zero's right arm into bronze, the alien began gloating on his superiority and how much more powerful he is than the Ultraman. Zero interrupts Jathar by [[MegatonPunch shoving a bronze fist]] into the alien's face.
* SoLastSeason: His techniques or forms gained in an installment tend to be rendered useless or not quite as effective in a following one.
** In ''Revenge of Belial'' his Sluggers, firey kick and Wide Zero Shot fail to defeat Belial and Zero even loses the BeamOWar with his finishing move and Belial's Deathcium Burst. Belial even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades it]].
** In ''Ginga S: The Movie'' his Final Ultimate Zero is shrugged off by Etelgar, who comes out unscathed from it.
** He is beaten again by Belial but this time in his Ultimate Zero Form during the Crisis Impact before the events of ''Geed''.
* SpinOffspring: Zero is the son of the iconic Series/{{Ultraseven}} and the main character of his own sub-franchise of movies and series depicting his many adventures.
* StockShonenHero: The most pronounced of the Ultras in regards to this, Zero's hot-blooded, somewhat lacking in the intelligence department due to skipping school (though he isn't exactly dumb so much as lazy), has had many rivals that became his friends (such as [=GlenFire=]), befriended some foes (Jean-Killer), and also had CharacterDevelopment allowing him to mature. He also enjoys [[CallingYourAttacks naming his attacks]] as he fights.
* SuperiorSuccessor: As powerful as his father is, Zero proved himself stronger and eventually surpasses his old man in terms of heroism and actions, saving the entire Multiverse from various threats. Furthermore, his debut movie has him defeat Ultraman Belial alone when everyone else who fought him could not. And he has two Eye Sluggers instead of one like Seven.
* SuperEmpowering: He used to be on the receiving end of the trope. But starting with the New Generation shows, he instead is now the provider with him giving new abilities and artifacts to the New Generation Ultramen to use or even copies of his own weapons and forms.
* SuperMode: Ultimate Zero in ''Film/UltramanZeroTheRevengeOfBelial'', Shining Ultraman Zero in ''Ultra Zero Fight'', and Ultraman Zero Beyond in ''Series/UltramanGeed''. In ''Series/UltraGalaxyFightTheAbsoluteConspiracy'' he combines the first two as [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs Ultimate Shining Ultraman Zero]].
* SuperPowerLottery: Zero has quite the amount of abilities, with his repertoir expanding with each new form.
** In his base form he can fly, produce fire on his limbs for attacks, move faster than eyesight and sound, use his Eye Sluggers as projectiles separately, use a multitude of beams from either his forehead, chest or arms, use his light to purify evil from other people and on top of that can empower others or possess them.
** As Ultimate Zero he retains all previous abilities but can open dimensional portals, slice planets with one strike, charge light projectiles that can obliterate almost anything, employ a sword-like hand attack, create shields, intrude in waves to communicate with people even between dimensions.
** As Shining Zero he can stop time, reverse it, create pocket dimensions where time flows slower, evaporate spirits and even escape from black holes.
** As Zero Beyond his abilities are amplified and gains new ones such as the Balkley Chorus, which uses his Sluggers to produce soundwaves strong enough to blast opponents apart, can modify it to simply produce loud noises that harmlessly move beings around, can also produce forcefields to trap opponents in and even combines his Balkley Chorus and Sluggers in one overwhelming attack.
* SuperStrength: Naturally as an Ultra this ability is one of his common ones, he has enough strength to lift heavier beings than himself with ease and toss them into the air. Even when he's only 5 meters tall and far weaker as a result of a botched attempt at trying to cooperate with his then human host, Nozomu Taiga at transforming, he's still able to lift the 30,000 ton Gomess in ''Ultraman Saga''.
* SymbioticPossession: Like most other Ultras, Zero does this with humans that he views as being brave and selfless. Though he has done this a total of three times throughout the franchise so far.
* TalkingYourWayOut: In ''Revenge of Belial'' during his first encounter with [=GlenFire=] Zero has no interest in fighting the fire warrior due to seeking out the Shield of Baradhi, but [=GlenFire=] won't listen to a "wimp" and challenges Zero to a fight, which Zero only reluctantly complies to. After taking a beating from [=GlenFire=], Zero decides he's had enough and completely foregoes this option.
* ThisIsUnforgivable: He often says a variation of this to Belial when he's reached his RageBreakingPoint with the actions of the evil Ultra.
-> ''"I won't forgive what you've done!"''
* TimeMaster: [[GoldenSuperMode Shining Ultraman Zero]] has the ability to [[ResetButton rewind time for everything in the local vicinity]] or form pocket dimensions [[YearInsideHourOutside where time moves faster than normal]].
* TrainingFromHell: After his failed attempt at taking the Plasma Spark, he was put under the mentorship of Ultraman Leo, being subjected to harsh training with a power-restraining armor to teach him discipline and true strength. He himself had his chance of putting Ginga and Victory through this in ''Ginga S: The Movie'' inside of a pocket dimension he made as Shining Ultimate Zero.
* TransformationTrinket: Like his father before him, his own device takes the form of glasses called the Ultra Zero Eye. His hosts transform with them by placing them on their face.
* {{Tsundere}}: Towards Ultraman Z, his self-proclaimed pupil, Zero will not usually acknowledge or even treat him as his student but shows that he does care about the younger Ultra and deep down does want to somewhat mentor the Ultra, even getting jealous when Mebius jokingly offers to take Z under his tutelage when the former sees Zero reject Z.
* TheWorfBarrage: In ''Ginga S: The Movie'', his Ultimate Aegis' final attack is shrugged off by Etelgar, with the demoniac villain merely losing his scarf but otherwise coming out unscathed from it.
* TheWorfEffect: Often is subjected to this.
** In ''Ultra Galaxy Legends'' he is overwhelmed (along with his fellow Ultras and ZAP Spacy) by Belyudra and requires a boost from the Plasma Spark to finish off the colossal kaiju fusion.
** He is soundly overwhelmed by both Kaiser Belial and Arch Belial in ''Revenge of Belial'', and in fact is nearly killed by the latter draining his life-force.
** ''Ultraman Saga'' has him getting defeated by Imago Hyper Zetton and nearly killed many times over by the Zetton mutant's power.
** ''Ultraman Geed'' has the resurrected Belial defeat him even in his Ultimate Zero form, which also damages his Zero Bracelet and leaves him severely weakened for the remainder of the series until Hikari fixes his device.
* UpToEleven: His Zero Beyond form takes all his abilities up to eleven, having up to 4 Sluggers as base and on top of that can make even stronger versions of his beam attacks and finishers.
* WorfHadTheFlu: For most of ''Ultraman Geed'' he has a less impressive showing than usual, mainly owed to him being severely weakened after his loss against Belial in the Crisis Impact that left his Zero Bracelet heavily damaged.
* YearsTooEarly: His catchphrase has him telling his opponents that they're ''20,000'' years off the mark to fight/defeat him.

!!! Voiced by: Creator/MamoruMiyano
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ultraman_zero.png]]

The son of Series/UltraSeven. An exceptionally powerful young Ultra, he was banished from the Land of Light after attempting to steal the planet's power source, the Plasma Spark. After years of training under Series/UltramanLeo, he eventually returned and proved himself a worthy hero in ''Film/MegaMonsterBattleUltraGalaxyLegends''. Afterwards, he would begin trekking the multiverse, pursuing after all sorts of powerful villains, clashing with Belial time and time again. He has since become one of the most imortant Ultras in the ''Franchise/UltraSeries'', frequently crossing over into other series, most notably ''Series/UltramanGeed'', where he is one of the main characters. He has no single human host, but always uses the Ultra Zero Eye to transform.

A warrior from the Planet of Mirrors (a giant cosmic mirror that contains a whole world in it) long tasked with defending the allied world of Esmeralda.

A sentient robot able to transform into a spaceship known as the Jean-Bird. He served as the personal transport of the royal family of the planet Esmeralda, but when Belial devastated the planet, he was taksed with bringing the princess Emerana to safety, which led to him joining forces with Zero to fight Belial and later protect the whole multiverse as he does these days.

The last introduced member of the Ultimate Force Zero, having debuted in ''Killer the Beatstar''. Jean-Nine was born as Jean-Killer, created by the evil supercomputer Beatstar from the data of Jean-Bot for the purpose of destroying him.

* RocketPunch: Just like Jean-Bot.
* ShockAndAwe: Can shoot paralyzing lightning from his hands.

A [[Series/{{Ultraman}} Pigmon]] who serves as the mascot of the Ultimate Force Zero. The team first encountered him in ''Ultra Zero Fight'', where it was one of several monsters resurrected by the Alien Bat Gurashie, but unlike the others, remained a friendly and peaceful creature.
----
See Characters/UltramanTVSeries

* MeaningfulName: Named after Dan Moroboshi, the human form of [[Series/UltraSeven Zero's father]].
* MythologyGag: This isn't the first time Pigmon's been resurrected by the villains alonside other monsters, only to still be on the side of good and betray them. Just ask [[Series/{{Ultraman}} Geronimon]].
* TeamPet: Of the Ultimate Force Zero.
* YouShallNotPass: Despite its small size, Pigmon attempts to do this by preventing Belial-possessed Zero and the Darkness Five from marching forward. This caused Zero to have a HeroicSecondWind and eventually gaining his GoldenSuperMode to exorcise Belial and finally reviving his friends.
