Ultraman Ginga
Ultraman Ginga
Ultlive! Ultraman Ginga!
- Voiced by: Tomokazu Sugita, Nicholas Clark (English dub), Victor Ruiz (Latin American Spanish dub)
- All Your Powers Combined: Ginga Strium, accessed by the fusing with Ultraman Taro via the Strium Brace. In this form he can use the special moves of the Six Ultra Brothers – Ultraman, Zoffy, Ultraseven, Jack, Ace, and Taro. This form is no longer accesible after Taro left with his job on Earth is done.
- Blade Below the Shoulder: The Ginga Saber, an energy blade formed from his right arm.
- Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Ginga's light-up panels change color for each of his moves — blue default, red for fireballs, yellow for thunderbolts, green for healing, and purple for the Ginga Slash.
- Cosmic Motifs: His name is literally the Japanese for Galaxy. In addition, his crystals change color as a reference to the multitude colors of the galaxy.
- Healing Hands: The Ginga Comfort, which works a lot like many of Ultraman Cosmos' powers by showering the enemy with a calming, healing light.
- The Hero: This is as much his story as it is Hikaru's. He's the one who beat Dark Lugiel in the original Dark Spark War and their battle continues into the present day.
- Playing with Fire: The Ginga Fireballs, in which he summons homing orbs of fire that he can direct at his foes as he pleases.
- Shock and Awe: The Ginga Thunderbolt creates a vortex of lightning to engulf monsters.
Ultraman Victory
Ultraman Victory
Ultlive! Ultraman Victory!
- Voiced by: Kiyotaka Uji, Bryan Forrest (English dub)
- Brought to You by the Letter "S": Victory has several V-shaped crystals adorning his body.
- Equippable Ally: How the Spark Dolls work for him. Instead of turning into a monster, he gains a piece of them to use as a weapon on his right arm.
- Arm Cannon: By using the King Joe Custom Spark Doll, Victory gains the robot's powerful Pedanium Launcher.
- Cool Sword: By scanning Shepherdon's Spark Doll, Victory will be armed with the Shepherdon Saber, a sword that resembles said monster's back crystal.
- Playing with Fire: Gains this with the EX Red King Spark Doll.
- Power Fist: The EX Red King Spark Doll gives him the monster's massive fist, allowing him to not only punch harder, but create fiery eruptions by slamming the ground.
- Power Pincers: His Sadorah Scissors, gained from using the Sadorah Spark Doll. Like the monster, he can stretch out the pincer arm to impossible lengths to hit foes from afar.
- Shock and Awe: The Eleking Spark Doll grants him lightning-based abilities.
- Whip It Good: He gains this from the Gudon and Eleking Spark Dolls, with the latter keeping Eleking's electric powers.
- Finishing Move: Victorium Shoot: His signature move, which appears as an orange beam with multiple light orange Vs in it. Victory draws an energy V by raising his hands and the V and yellow energy is absorbed in the V Crystal on his right arm. It is fired from an "L" position from the V Crystal on Victory's wrists, which means it is fired from the back of his hand.
- Multiform Balance:
- Jack of All Stats: His normal form.
- Super Form: Ultraman Victory Knight, an enhanced version of Victory. His red and black markings replaced with blue and silver and his V Crystals turned red. His main weapon is the Knight Timbre, a sword/flute object.
- Non-Standard Character Design: Ultraman Victory is one of the few Ultras that doesn't have a circular color timer, instead having a V-shaped one. He also has a lot of black in his design, something rare for a good-aligned Ultra

Antagonists
Dark Lugiel
Dark Lugiel / Vict Lugiel
Click here for
- Voiced by: Tomokazu Sugita
- Beam-O-War: His penultimate confrontation with Utraman Ginga is this, which lasts for nearly 2 minutes. He earlier gets into one with Taro, which is mostly tied until Taro gives his energy to a downed Ginga to let the latter fight again.
- Big Bad: Of Ultraman Ginga, although his presence is unknown to the main characters. In Ginga S he takes this spot from Exceller once he's fully resurrected.
- Dark Is Evil: As his name indicates, he embodies darkness and is an evil tyrant bent on making life itself come to a cease forever.
- Demonic Possession: Spends most of Ginga possessing Shinrai Kyoko up until he gets explunged from her body.
- Evil Counterpart: Of Ultraman Ginga, but reasons are too spoilerific to get into.
- Expy: With his name, colour scheme, design elements like having visible toes and shoulder spikes and his origin as an Evil Counterpart of Ultraman Ginga possessing a protagonist, he reuses many aspects of Dark Lucifer, the scrapped final boss of Ultraman Nexus.
- Forced Transformation: He possesses the ability to turn living beings into Spark Dolls, hoping to turn the entire universe into a place of unchanging stillness by doing so either directly through the Dark Spark or with his beams.
- Hero Killer: Took out almost every single hero in the Ultra Series multiverse at the end of the Dark Spark War, defeated Ginga and nearly killed him and was able to match Taro in a fair fight for the most part. In Ginga S he easily defeats both Ginga and Victory as Vict Lugiel, turning them into Spark Dolls and their bodies to stone, and it takes a massive group effort with Mana requiring to sacrifice herself after linking herself to his robotic body as Vict Lugiel for him to be defeated.
- The Juggernaut: As Vict Lugiel he's strong enough to handle both Ginga and Victory with ease, defeating them in one attack in their first true fight and it takes them giving their all with a Heroic Second Wind along with Mana weakening him to finally destroy him.
- Knight of Cerebus: Most of the series is rather lighthearted and Dark Lugiel's minions are fairly silly and comedic despite their legitimate threat. Lugiel himself is devoid of any comedic qualities and his appearance shifts the tone towards a more serious situation. In Ginga S his resurrection marks the start of the Darkest Hour and he temporaily takes out both Ginga and Victory.
- He Who Must Not Be Seen: In Ultraman Ginga, only his hands are seen for almost the entirety of the series.
- Literal Split Personality: He and Ginga used to be a single entity, but due to their internal conflict on how to deal with living beings, they split and became mortal enemies.
- Sizeshifter: Like all Ultras, Lugiel can change his size according to his needs, like Ginga he can even turn to infinite size.
- Toy Transmutation: His Dark Spark allows him to transform other living beings into motionless Spark Dolls, lifeless toys. He can bring them back to life if he chooses to.
Ultraman Ginga Antagonists
Alien Valky
- Voiced by: Tatsuya Hashimoto
See the Ultraman Taro character sheet for tropes applying to the Alien Valky as a whole
- Beware the Silly Ones: He looks like a cheery and energetic goofball with his upbeat attitude and habit of randomly shouting in English, but he's also a sly and manipulative villain who corrupts the hearts of people and almost succeeds in breaking apart Hikaru's friendships.
- The Dragon: The first of several aliens revived by Dark Lugiel to carry out his bidding.
- Gratuitous English: He has a habit of speaking in English randomly.
- No Name Given: Despite being considered a character instead of a Monster of the Week, Alien Valky is all he's ever known as.
Jean-Killer / Jean-Nine
A Spark Doll of a giant robot that Ultraman Zero had once encountered when battling Alien Bat. It was used by a mysterious enemy to oppose Ultraman Ginga, although how he got it is something of a mystery.
See Ultraman Zero
- Transforming Mecha: In this series, Jean-Nine can transform into a fighter jet called the Jean-Star — a trait unseen in the Ultraman Zero movies and specials.
Alien Icarus
- Voiced by: Tomokazu Seki
See the Ultraseven character sheet for tropes applying to the Alien Icarus as a whole
- Beware the Silly Ones: Although a bumbling simpleton compared to other incarnations of Alien Icarus, this guy still proved to be a challenge for Hikaru and his friends, thanks to his transformation into the terrifying Tyrant.
- The Dragon: The shortest-lived of the three aliens who are freed from Spark Doll form to carry out Dark Lugiel's bidding.
- No Name Given: Despite being treated as a character rather than a typical Monster of the Week, this Alien Icarus is never given a name.
- Simpleton Voice: Talks in a slow and low-pitched voice befitting of his bumbling nature.
Alien Nackle Gray
- Voiced by: Kunji Hirano
See the Return of Ultraman character sheet for tropes applying to the Alien Nackle as a whole
- Ambiguously Gay: He acts like a gay stereotype with his extremely camp and effeminate demeanor. He even blows a kiss at the Big Bad when he is first awoken from Spark Doll form.
- Art Evolution: Gray uses a completely new Alien Nackle design, with a light gray body, a semi-rectangular head with larger eyes and a more pronounced "mouth", and white fur on his shoulders.
- Beware the Silly Ones: A comically camp and effeminate alien seems like a joke villain, but Gray proved himself to be the most dangerous of the three aliens sent to carry out Dark Lugiel's bidding.
- The Dragon: The last of the aliens revived by Lugiel to destroy Hikaru and his friends.
Ultraman Ginga S Antagonists
Exceller
- Voiced by: Takuya Eguchi
See the Ultraseven character sheet for tropes applying to the Alien Chibu as a whole
- Big Bad: Of Ultraman Ginga S as he's the one drawing out the Victorium Crystals from the ground for his evil plans. Though ends up usurped by Dark Lugiel once the latter is fully resurrected.
- Big Bad Wannabe: Once Lugiel's mind is revived, he turns Exceller back into a Spark Doll and seizes control of Vict Lugiel for himself.
- Gratuitous English: He tends to shout in English when he's furious at his lackeys.
- Gratuitous French: He often refer to his allies as "Monsieur" Vorst, Muerte, Berume, etc.
- Insufferable Genius: Exceller fancies himself as the "Greatest Mind in the Universe", and it shows through his arrogance towards everyone, including his allies, who he tends to trash-talk behind their backs.
- Hate Sink: Jesus, this dude is just as bad as Lugiel. He has a massive superiority complex and sees everyone else beneath him. He treats his own minions, including One-Zero like trash especially once everything is all said and done. He has caused so much misery throughout Ginga S all for the sake of power and made Lugiel look inferior.
- Jerkass: Arrogant to the extreme, abusive to his lackeys, and merciless to his enemies. Exceller cares only for absolute power, hoping that by using the Victorium Crystals, he will become not just the smartest creature in the cosmos, but the strongest.
- Mini-Mecha: Due to the fact that his species are essentially giant brains with faces and tentacles, he pilots a small mecha called Chibu Loader Strong in order to do things only a humanoid could do.
- Non-Action Big Bad: Exceller remains on his spaceship near the Moon 95% of the time, sending his various minions to do his dirty work. Justified for as an Alien Chibu, he's physically very weak and only has the brains to come up with schemes for others to carry out, and part of his plan is to gain a body powerful enough to match his mind. When he does acquire such a body as Five King, he nearly beats Victory and Ginga to death.
- One-Winged Angel: Eventually transforms into Five King to deal with Victory and Ginga personally.
- Uncertain Doom: His spark doll was left inside Vict Lugiel's body and wasn't retrieved after Vict Lugiel's destruction, which doesn't bode well for him.
- You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: He likes to deliver this fate to his minions. Lugiel does this to him in turn once the latter has fully resurrected.
Android One-Zero (Mana)
- Played by: Moga Mogami
- Co-Dragons: With Vorst, as both are Exceller's most important lackeys, command his Chiburoid troopers, and carry out the majority of his Spark Doll-using schemes. Until her Heel–Face Turn, that is.
- Heel–Face Turn: She joins UPG about halfway through the series when Exceller sends her on a suicide mission and she takes enough of the alien's general mistreatment of her.
- Heroic Sacrifice: Makes sure to weaken Vict Lugiel so Ginga and Victory can defeat him, but at the cost of her life when she perishes in the destruction of Lugiel. Luckily UPG backed up her data to rebuild her
- Shock and Awe: She can shoot lightning from her hands, a variation of the original Alien Chibu android's killer joy buzzer.
- Robot Girl: She's a modernized version of Android Zero-One, another android lackey who had appeared in Alien Chibu's debut episode of Ultraseven.
- We Can Rebuild Him: UPG managed to back up her data and prepare to restore and rebuild her in The Stinger of the final episode.
Alien Guts Vorst
- Voiced by: Horii Kaneko
See the Ultraseven character sheet for tropes applying to the Alien Guts as a whole
- Co-Dragons: Alongside Android One-Zero, though Vorst is promoted to a solo Dragon about halfway through the series.
- Evil Sounds Deep: Has a gruff and booming voice.
- It's All About Me: Vorst has a huge sense of pride, calling himself the strongest person in the universe and referring himself as Ore-Sama ("my magnificent self"). He will often disobey Exceller's direct orders to do as he pleases thus.
- Spell My Name with an S: Due to the confusion with "B" and "V" as well as "L" and "R" in the Japanese language, Vorst's name is just as often translated as Bolst.
Alien Zetton Berume
- First Appearance: The Resurrection of LugielVoiced by: Yuki Ono
See Ultraman TV Series
- Dance Battler: Likes to dance and incorporates some of that style in his fights.
- The Dragon: To Alien Chibu Exceller... Or so he claimed. In reality he actually serves Dark Lugiel and is quick to ditch his servitude to Exceller once Lugiel is close to resurrecting.
- You Shall Not Pass!: A villainous example. When Hikaru and Shou prepare for a rematch against Vict Lugiel, he leads the remaining Chiburoids and Lugiel's Dark Agents (Icarus, Nackle and Valky) as the Dark Lugiel Rangers to stop them, forcing their allies to clear the coast for them.
Chiburoids
Exceller's robot soldiers who serve as cannon fodder for the villains and are also able to use Spark Dolls.
- Mecha-Mooks: Their role is to act as expendable and unintelligent footsoldiers for Exceller and his henchmen.
Kaiju and Aliens
Appearing in Ultraman Ginga
Black King
- First Appearance: Town of Falling Stars
See Return of Ultraman
- Adaptational Heroism: Due to the fact that Hikaru and his friends discovered the Spark Doll before any villains got to use it, this is the only series in which Black King is a good guy.
Thunder Darambia
- First Appearance: Town of Falling Stars
See Ultraman Dyna
- Art Evolution: Compared to Neo Darambia, Thunder Darambia possesses the five eyes on the basic Darambia, clawed hands, some sort of organ on its chest, and, most distinctly, four electrical rods growing from its back.
- Shock and Awe: The original Neo Darambia had some electrical powers, but Thunder Darambia is entirely centered around it. It still possesses the shocking hand tentacles of the original, but can also fire lightning bolts from the coils growing on its back.
- Starter Villain: For Ultraman Ginga.
- Your Size May Vary: Thunder Darambia is only 40 meters tall compared to the 65-meter height of the original Neo Darambia. Justified as many Ultra monsters that appear in this series are not as tall as Neo Darambia (usually 40-50 meters), so Thunder Darambia had to be scaled down to avoid inconsistency.
Kemur-Man
- First Appearance: A Midsummer Night's DreamVoiced by: Koichi Toshima
See Ultra Q
King Pandon
- First Appearance: The Twin-Headed Flame Beast
See Ultraseven
Ragon
- First Appearance: The Idol is Ragon
See Ultra Q
- Sizeshifter: In this series, Ragon possesses the ability to change its size, referencing the human-sized original of Ultra Q and the one that was turned giant by an atomic bomb in Ultraman (gaining atomic breath likewise).
Doragory
- First Appearance: The Hater of Dreams
See Ultraman Ace
- Villain Team-Up: With Velokron in Ultraman Ginga S and Vakishim as well in Ultra Fight Victory.
Dark Ultra Warriors
- First Appearance: The Hater of Dreams (Ultraman Tiga) The Jet-Black Ultra Brothers (Ultraman and Ultraseven)
- Red and Black and Evil All Over: The dark versions of Ultraman and Ultraseven have the silver portions of their bodies replaced with black.
Tyrant
- First Appearance: Ultraman Ginga Theater Special
See Ultraman Taro
- One-Winged Angel: Referencing Alien Icarus' ears being part pf Tyrant's composition, this appearance from Tyrant is simply Alien Icarus merging himself with the Spark Dolls of its remaining components to become a monster.
Dark Zagi
- First Appearance: Ultraman Ginga Theater Special
See Ultraman Nexus
- Villain Decay: The savage and calculating Big Bad of one of the Ultra Series' darkest entries is reduced to simply being an expendable minion in this series (though he still maintains his strength and fierceness).
Dark Galberos
- First Appearance: The Closed World
See Ultraman Nexus
- Art Evolution: The only difference between Dark Galberos and the original Galberos is that the former is simply painted black.
Zaragas
- First Appearance: The Stolen Ginga Spark
See Ultraman TV Series
- Metamorphosis Monster: For the first time since its original appearance, Zaragas displays its adaptation ability, as its user deliberately sheds off the monster's armour to grow huge spines all over its body.
- Mythology Gag: The spikes were actually a scrapped concept from Zaragas' debut episode in the original Ultraman.
- Shock and Awe: Zaragas has the ability to shoot lightning from its spikes and electrocute those it impales on its spikes in this series.
- Spikes of Doom: In this series, Zaragas switches out its blinding flashes for long spikes growing from where its bulb sockets usually are.
Red King
- First Appearance: The Stolen Ginga Spark
See Ultraman TV Series
- Adaptational Heroism: While Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle NEO also featured a Red King fighting the bad guys, that one was used by Anti-Hero Grande. Here, Red King is used by Misuzu, making this the first true heroic appearance of Red King.
- Adaptational Wimp: However, Misuzu is not experienced with using Spark Dolls to fight, so Red King doesn't do very well against Zaragas. In any other appearance, Zaragas would have been toast.
Antlar
- First Appearance: The Jet-Black Ultra Brothers
See Ultraman TV Series
Jashrine
- First Appearance: The Jet-Black Ultra Brothers
See Ultraman Mebius
- Adaptational Heroism: Like Black King, this is the only series in which Jashrine is a good guy, due to the fact that Hikaru's grandpa already had the Spark Doll for some reason.
- Adaptational Wimp: Justified as Misuzu, Kenta, and Chigusa were unable to coordinate well enough to make use of Jashrine's powers against Antlar.
Super Grand King
- First Appearance: Darkness and Light
See Ultraman Taro
- Art Evolution: Due to the fact that this is Grand King's first appearance in nearly 30 years, the robot monster is a brighter metallic colour, larger horns and spikes, more detailed legs, a thicker tail, orange eyes and chest patterns, and different arms as described below.
- Attack Reflector: Super Grand King can absorb energy through its back and launch the beams from its Chest Blaster. This ability was not present in the original Grand King.
- Back from the Dead: Yapool revives the monster alongside its original creator Juda in Ultra Fight Victory, turning the monster into Super Grand King Spectre. It's still really friggin' unstoppable.
- Chest Blaster: Another power not present in the original Grand King is Super Grand King's ability to fire a devastating red laser from the orange lines on its chest. This ability was carried onto Maga-Grand King in Ultraman Orb.
- Right Hand of Doom: Whereas the original had a drill hand, Super Grand King has a massive pincer to go with its giant claw. When Yapool revives it, the pincer becomes a sword.
Appearing in Ultraman Ginga S
Shepherdon
- First Appearance: The Opening Force
- Breath Weapon: Can breathe a beam of Victorium Energy by charging up the Victorium Crsytal on his back.
- Expy: In the same way that the Victorians are based on the Underground People from Ultraman, Shepherdon is based on their monster Telesdon.
- Equippable Ally: As the Shepherdon Sabre, where the monster is transformed into a powerful sword for it's master to wield.
- Gentle Giant: It must be emphasized that Shepherdon is a completely peaceful monster that lives in harmony with the Victorians. Its appearance does alarm UPG as the creature comes to the surface to try stop Exceller from pulling Victorium Crystals out of the earth, but the surface-dwelling heroes quickly realize that the monster is on their side.
- Heroic Sacrifice: During the battle against Velokron and Doragory, Shepherdon pushes Victory out of the way to take Velokron's missiles for the hero, causing the monster to become a Spark Doll for the rest of the series.
- Power Crystal: The source of Shepherdon's abilities is the Victorium Crystal growing on his back. This crystal is 10 times more powerful than a standard Victorium Crystal and possesses healing powers. Naturally, this makes him a target for those seeking immense power like Exceller and Commander Kamiyama of UPG.
- Tunnel King: Being a subterranean monster, Shepherdon can burrow very well.
- Undying Loyalty: Shepherdon is a devoted ally of Ultraman Victory and Shou, having befriended the Victorian prince when he was a boy. He helps Victory out in the battles against Gudon, Fire Golza, Gan Q, Velokron and Doragory, and Lunatyx and Victory Killer when the odds turn against the hero, even when Shepherdon's own life was potentially at a greater risk as a result.
EX Red King
- First Appearance: The Opening Force
See Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle
- Starter Villain: For Ultraman Victory.
Eleking
- First Appearance: Ginga vs Victory
See Ultraseven
Imperisers
- First Appearance: Pride of a Warrior
See Ultraman Mebius
- Adaptational Wimp: In Ultraman Mebius, the Imperisers were among Mebius' most fearsome and powerful foes, with a single one completely devastating Mebius, Taro, and GUYS with its teleportation, healing factor, and arsenal of ranged weaponry. Here, the Imperisers are highly expendable cannon fodder, with the heroes being able to destroy legions upon legions of them.
- Half the Man He Used to Be: An elite Imperisers fights Ultraman Victory, and ends up being sliced into three pieces using the Shepherdon Sabre.
King Joe Custom
- First Appearance: Pride of a Warrior
See Ultraseven
- Arm Cannon: Not as powerful as King Joe Black's, but still not to be underestimated.
- Composite Character: It's a King Joe with King Joe Black's Arm Cannon and the colour scheme of the original King Joe.
Sadorah
- First Appearance: The Meaning of Strength
See Return of Ultraman
Gudon
- First Appearance: The Meaning of Strength
See Return of Ultraman
Yapool
- First Appearance: Friend and DemonVoiced by: Tesshō Genda
See Ultraman Ace
Vakishim
- First Appearance: Friend and Demon
See Ultraman Ace
- Mythology Gag: This isn't the first time Vakishim has been possessed by Yapool...
- Villain Team-Up: With Velokron and Doragory in Ultra Fight Victory.
Gomora
- First Appearance: The Forgotten Past
See Ultraman TV Series
- Villain Team-Up: With Fire Golza until Hiyori is convinced to turn against Exceller.
Fire Golza
- First Appearance: The Forgotten Past
See Ultraman Tiga
- Hand Blast: Fire Golza gains the ability to produce a binding beam of energy from its hands in its reappearance with Gan Q. Justified as the monster had been empowered with Vorst' natural Alien Guts powers.
- Villain Team-Up: With Gomora until Hiyori changes sides, and Gan Q in the following episode.
Gan Q
- First Appearance: Activate! Magnewave Strategy
See Ultraman Gaia
- Doppelgänger Spin: When Gan Q is MonsLived by Vorst, it gains his ability to produce doubles of himself.
Five King
- First Appearance: Activate! Magnewave Strategy
- Achilles' Heel: Five King relies on a Victorium Crystal in its back as the source of its immense power. Destroying the crystal weakens the monster greatly.
- All Your Powers Combined: Has the abilities of all five of the monsters that compose its form, able to combine all of them into one supermassive attack.
- Also, its Reicubas component's fire and ice powers are combined into a single beam of fire and ice energies, and it can fire a combo of Golza's Ultrasonic Ray and Melba's Eye Beams from its head.
- Attack Reflector: Thanks to its Gan Q component, Five King can absorb beam attacks through its Gan Q hand and shoot them back out.
- Chest Blaster: A modified version of C.O.V.'s Flash Beam.
- Clip Its Wings: Gets both its wings shredded off by the Ultramen duo, Ginga and Victory, in the final battle, rendering it flightless and a sitting duck.
- Continuity Nod: Exceller made Five King by studying how Alien Icarus turned himself into Tyrant in the events of Ultraman Ginga.
- Eyes Do Not Belong There: In addition to the Gan-Q eye taking up Five King's left hand? The monster also has Melba's eyes on it's forehead and Super C.O.V's on it's belly. But that's what would happen when you comine five monsters into one and add the facial features of all five across it's body.
- Giant Flyer: Borrowed from Melba's wings.
- Hand Blast: Its hands are the bodies of Reicubas and Gan Q, allowing it to fire Reicubas' elemental attacks and Gan Q's Eye Beams.
- Hybrid Monster: Of the five most iconic kaiju from the three Ultra Series that revived the franchise in the 90s with great success (two from Tiga, one from Dyna, and two from Gaia). To boot:
- Head: Fire Golza and Melba
- Torso: Fire Golza and Super C.O.V.
- Right arm: Reigubas
- Left arm: Gan Q
- Wings: Melba
- Legs: Super C.O.V.
- Tail: Melba
- The Juggernaut: Taken from Fire Golza, Five King was resistant to even Victory's EX Red King Knuckle and King Joe Custom Cannon.
- One-Winged Angel: Exceller MonsLived into Five King for the specific purpose of dealing with Ginga and Victory by himself after his latest plan's failure proved to be the final straw.
Bemular
- First Appearance: Resurrected Life
See Ultraman TV Series
- Breath Weapon: Asides from its usual blue energy beam, Bemular has gained Vorst's binding energy beam (though the alien normally fires those from his hands).

Hyper Zetton
- First Appearance: The Resurrection of Lugiel

- Skull for a Head: He covers it up with a mask in his early appearances, but once Zero burns it away, even he's taken aback by is disturbing appearance.

- Human Aliens: Her species are shown as such.
- Magic Mirror: Etelgar specifically enslaved her due to her species' powers over such. To wit:
- She carries with her a mirror that fires a golden ray that imprisons its targets inside a floating mirror. This is what Etelgar uses to capture the Ultra heroes.

- She can deflect attacks.
- She can teleport between reflective surfaces.
