The only main difference is that in ''Leo'' while unable to transform into Seven, Dan Moroboshi spends the entire series putting Gen Ohtori into a [[TrainingFromHell gruesome training regimen]] each time the latter is facing powerful monsters. Whereas Zero reluctantly took Z as his disciple as the latter somewhat agitates him. However, Zero in this series, got PutOnABus [[TrappedInAnotherWorld in another world]] for several episodes and ultimately [[ButNowIMustGo leaves Earth to resume his duties in the Inter-Galactic Defense Force]], which leaves Z to his own devices by having bonded with a human host and discover what it means to be an Ultraman.

** Also, to ''Series/UltramanMax''. Both shows are also set on different universes separate from the main Showa continuity, but nonetheless have a SequelEpisode to a Showa entry (''Max'' has "The Untargeted Town" and ''Z'' has "Do-Over in the Year 2020", both of which are continuations of storylines started in ''Series/{{Ultraseven}}'' and ''Series/UltraQ''). Matters also help that ''Max'' is currently streaming on Website/YouTube as ''Z'' is concurrently airing.
