104	----
105
106	* TheAce: Despite being far younger than the other Andro heroes in terms of experience, he is a competent fighter on his own right. Its also the reason why Melos ultimately left the Andro Garrison, as he began to be supplanted by not only Ares but other younger and more capable fighters.
107	* TheGhost: He gets mentioned by Melos and Taiga in episode 8 of ''Series/UltraGalaxyFightTheAbsoluteConspiracy''.
108	* GunsAkimbo: Ares' fight style involves using his pair of guns. It also doubles as...
109	* IWorkAlone: Taiga was just happened to be on Planet Maijii when the Guar Army announced their attack and Andro Ares dispatched to fight them. Despite Taiga's insistence to join the battle, Ares told the young warrior to stay behind.
110	* MorphWeapon: His guns can also transform into a pair of daggers for close combat.
111	* MythologyGag: In one of the many shots in episode 14 of ''Tri-Squad Voice Drama'', Ares' eyes momentarily blinks. This is a reference to those EarlyInstallmentWeirdness in the Showa Era Andro Warriors having shining yellow eyes, before the ''Andro Melos'' miniseries render them as blank visors.
112	* OneManArmy: Taiga's encounter with Ares proved that the Andro warrior is more than a capable fighter than he was as a rookie, evidenced by Ares moping the floor against Imbeeza's goons.
113	* PurpleIsPowerful: He wears a purple Cosmo Tector, and is also a OneManArmy against a team of cyborgs.
114	* SmallRoleBigImpact: In a sense; Ares called Taiga the "Hero of Light", which is generally a term applied to Ultra Warriors. Taiga adopted the term as his personal RedBaron title.
115	* SwissArmyWeapon: His Cosmo Magnum guns have Twin Edge Mode that turn into a pair of daggers.

128	* CastingGag: His voice actor Shigeru Chiba previously voiced Monki, the Science Guard Party's pet [[ADogNamedDog monkey]] in ''Anime/TheUltraman''.

130	* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: Alien Ape, as his race is an alien primate if that's not obvious.
131	* LightIsGood: His race's fur is white, and he is friends with one of the Andro Warriors.

137	[[folder:Zoffy]]
138	!!Zoffy/Andro Melos (I)
139	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/16fe2cacddb81d680646e28c2f101ec7.jpg]]
140	The original holder of the Andro Melos. At some point after ''Series/UltramanEighty'' ended, Zoffy was attacked by an Ace Killer, who proceed to throw him into a black hole.

141
142	As Melos, Zoffy would be joined by Andro Wolf in fighting against the Guar Army's cyborg battalions and eventually relinquishing the armor and identity to Caesar's son, Benoit. Zoffy was also responsible for the foundation of Andro Garrison for the similarly peace-loving Andro People to fight and preserve peace in outer space.
143	----
144	For tropes pertaining to Zoffy in general, see [[Characters/UltramanTVSeries here]].
145
146	* AllThereInTheManual: His exploits and experience as the first Andro Melos was in the printed medias and not the live action miniseries itself.
147	* BashBrothers: He had this dynamic in the magazine alongside Andro Wolf.
148	* FakingTheDead: As Andro Melos, he had faked his death to ensure that the news of him surviving Ace Killer's assassination didn't get the Guar Army's attention.
149	* TheGhost: Indirect example; he is absent in the entire ''Andro Melos'' miniseries, but was mentioned (not in-name) by the narrator to be the one who rewarded the next Andro Melos, Benoit, with the badge on his left chest.
150	* SecretIdentity: "Andro Melos" in the magazine and manga was just an alias used by Zoffy in Caesar's Cosmo Tector to keep the charade of his death a secret.
151
152	[[/folder]]
153
154	!!Guar Army
155	[[folder:As a whole]]
156	* BrotherSisterTeam: The ruling members, Juda, Mold and Gina.
157	* {{Cyborg}}s: The magazine revealed that these kind of grunts are their original {{Mooks}}, but the miniseries made it even more diverse with Fighting Bems as MonsterOfTheWeek and Monster Battleship.
158	* TheEmpire: The full name of this team is Guar Empire Invasion Army.
159	* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: For the siblings, Juda, Mold and Gina are surprisingly care for each others and neither are abusive to one another. Considering that the three are needed to form Guar, this is rather justified.
160	* MouthOfSauron: Juda, Mold and Gina are the closest thing the members of Guar Army get to refer as their leaders, as the real ruler, Guar, was never shown. Little did they know that the siblings '''are''' Guar's LiteralSplitPersonality.
161	* RedEyesTakeWarning: The siblings and Guar are all red eyes.
162	* SupervillainLair: The entirety of Planet Guar is their main base of operations.

166	[[folder:Guar]]
167	!!Guar
168	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/guar_full.png]]
169	The true ruling figure of the Guar Army, who's was never been seen even by his subjects as most of his orders were delivered by Juda, Mold and Gina. Near the end of ''Andro Melos'', he was revealed to have been the three siblings' combined form, and they assumed it to fight the Andro Garrison in the FinalBattle.
170	----
171
172	* AmbiguousSituation: He is a fusion resulted from Juda, Mold and Gina, but Andro Melos' words imply that Guar was already a sapient being on his own, and those three siblings were his LiteralSplitPersonality.
173	* BlowYouAway: He is capable of summoning winds through Storm Attack.
174	* EldritchAbomination: In the manga adaptation, Guar is said to be a space amoeba grows infinitely and can endanger the entire space.
175	* HeWhoMustNotBeSeen: Guar appears silhouetted in episode 9 and physically debuted in the last two episodes.
176	* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: His final fate; he was killed when Melos stabbed the monster with his weapon.
177	* LightIsNotGood: He is nowhere as benevolent as his white color.
178	* FinalBoss: Of the miniseries as a whole.
179	* FusionDance: The spirits of Juda, Mold and Gina came to form Guar after their deaths by the Andro Warriors in the miniseries.
180	* MultipleHeadCase: The heads of Juda, Mold and Gina are displayed, but Guar's true face is on his chest.
181	* VillainBall: In the final battle, Guar lured the Grantector-wearing Andro Melos into his specialized dimension, which could reduce his powers and increase the villain's powers, supposedly turning the fight's battle to Guar's advantage. It didn't work because the Grantector supplied Melos with a dozen times of his original strength, thus the dimension did nothing to de-power the hero and Guar was defeated after that.

184
185	[[folder:Juda]]
186	!!Juda
187	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/juda_97.png]]
188	!!!Voice actor: Shojiro Kihara
189	The youngest ruling member of the Guar Army. In addition to the ''Andro Melos'' media, Juda had also fought the Ultra Brothers in the film ''Film/UltramanStory''.
190	----
191
192	* TheBabyOfTheBunch: He is the youngest of the Guar siblings, Mold being the oldest and Gina is the middle child.
193	* BlingOfWar: His golden armor, which is similarly worn by Mold. The only way to tell these two apart are their helmets and capes.
194	* BreakoutVillain: Out of the siblings, Juda was more popular due to his direct involvement against the Ultras, hence he appear a lot more in stage shows even before ''Series/UltraFightVictory''.
195	* CoolSword: The Bat Caliber, his sole weapon.
196	* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: The Kanji on his head is the letter for "King". He is one of the rulers of Guar Army.
197	* HornedHumanoid: His horns are visibly longer than mold.
198	* MeaningfulName: Juda gets his name from the Biblical figure Judah.
199	* MultipleChoicePast: There is quite a continuity error happening with Juda. ''Andro Melos'' has him being one of the ruling figures of Guar Army with Mold and Gina. In ''Ultraman Story'', he is a living space distortion that wanted to expand his power. Only the lore in ''Andro Melos'' was adapted into future instalments.
200	* SwordBeam: His Bat Caliber can shoot sparks and armor-piercing knife, hence why Andro Wolf was hurt in the first episode.
201	* SpikesOfVillainy: His armor is adorned with golden spikes.
202
203	[[/folder]]

209	The oldest of the siblings and their direct leader.
210	----
211
212	* AvengingTheVillain: He is visibly furious over the death of one of his servant, Fighting Bem Shizurun. When he's the only one out of his siblings to survive, Mold launched his attack on Andro Melos and co. to avenge them.
213	* BenevolentBoss: Even in the evil Gua Army, Mold treated his subject nicely. It also expands to ''Series/UltramanX'' when he berated Gina for whipping their servants over their captive's escape.
214	* DarkIsEvil: He holds this title with Juda for their almost similar armor, but Mold further plays the trope straight with his black helmet and armor.
215	* HornedHumanoid: Like Juda, Mold also has a pair of horns, but his were shorter.
216	* SpikesOfVillainy: His armor sported these, having shared his armor with Juda.

222	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gina_0.png]]
223	!!!Voice actress: Kyoko Oguma
224	The middle child and lone woman in the siblings.
225	----
226	* {{Archenemy}}: She and Andro Flor had quite a rivalry against each others. Of course, Flor was the one to kill Gina before she joined Juda and Mold as Guar.
227	* TheBaroness: Her use of [[WhipOfDominance whips]] only added the presence of a {{dominatrix}} to the Guar Army.
228	* DarkActionGirl: The only woman in the sibling and is highly dangerous in the battlefield.
229	* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Her restraining Andro Flor and delivering several lashes may inappropriately looked like the two were engaging in a hardcore BDSM, in a television show for children.
230	* HumanDisguise: In ''Ultra Super Legend'' manga adaptation of ''Andro Melos'', [[https://i0.hdslb.com/bfs/album/ff2739f006c53ade8a9f492fe46e40ef19661939.jpg Gina assumed a young woman in black hair]] to assassinate Kei Miyuki, Andro Flor's human host on Earth. She quickly drops the form after revealing herself, appearing in her true form while maintaining human size.
231	* LightIsNotGood: Her armor is noticeably silver and brighter in contrast to her brothers' main color of black, while being as villainous as the two.
232	* LightningLash: Her Bat Whip emits an electromagnetic wave to empower her hits.
233	* NoblewomansLaugh: She is fond of doing the "ohohoho" haughty laughter that is connected to arrogant female characters.
234	* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: Her main AnimalMotifs is snake, and it shows with her cobra head and tail on her back.
235	* SizeShifter: The manga has her assuming a human form.
236	* TheSmurfettePrinciple: To the Guar Army as a whole.
237	* WhipOfDominance: Gina is a domineering villainess whose custom weapon is a Bat Whip. She used it to whip her henchmen for their failures and as a weapon against the Andro Defense Force.
