''Cosmos'' takes a ''much'' LighterAndSofter approach to the formula, with a [[AllLovingHero kinder]] and [[MartialPacifist gentler]] Ultraman that mostly fights on defense and prefers to save monsters instead of killing them. While the series is a major [[BrokenBase opinion-splitter]] among ''Ultra'' fans, the movies are generally well-liked.

* QuietingTheUnquietDead: Mudon is a living saurian skeleton kaiju animated by the troubled soul of the dinosaur, who went on a rampage because she is unable to rest without seeing her baby one last time. In the episode's penultimate battle, rather than killing Mudon, Ultraman Cosmos instead brings a giant-sized portrait of Mudon's offspring to life, allowing Mudon to reunite with her child, at which point the satisfied Mudon then DisappearsIntoLight, finally at peace.

* EvenTheLovingHeroHasHatedOnes: Though Cosmos and Musashi are both pacifists who don't really harbor hatred, even towards most of their enemies. Not so much with the [[AliensAreBastards Alien Nowars]], whose enslavement and transformation of {{Kaiju}} into cyborgs against their will makes any sympathy either could have towards them go away. In fact, Nowar's last appearance in Episode 53 has Cosmos kill the last invading force without hesitation once their actions cause the death of the Baby Arados he was trying to protect from them. Later on, in ''Film/UltramanSaga'', Alien Bat proves despicable and cruel enough that Cosmos and Musashi forego any diplomacy and doubtlessly help the other Ultras kill Alien Bat once and for all.

''Ultraman Cosmos'' was created in the wake of the 35th anniversary of Ultraman, and is one of the most controversial series in the entire ''Franchise/{{Ultra|Series}}'' franchise. The series aims for a kinder, gentler Ultra Hero with emphasis on saving the monsters rather then destroying them, and a hero who fights very defensively. Still, here's the story as quoted from the Other Wiki:

"A kinder, gentler Ultra hero was released in the summer of 2001 to coincide with the 35th anniversary of the original ''Ultraman''. The launch of the TV show is quickly followed by a feature film prequel, and is the first time for an ''Ultra'' movie and TV series to be so closely linked. Following recent trends, Cosmos is another type-changing Ultraman, with the all-blue Luna and asymmetrical red and blue Corona modes. The modes represent a "gentle" side and a "strong" side, respectively. Later in the series, Cosmos also develops the "courageous" Eclipse mode, with a symmetrical blue, red, and gold design. The series was extended to 65 episodes, which makes it the longest-running in the franchise to date.

This series is preceded by the feature film ''Ultraman Cosmos: The First Contact''. The TV series takes place eight years after the events in the movie, when monsters are once again plaguing humanity. Now Musashi is a 19-year-old young man. He joins a wing of SRC known as Team EYES. Musashi encounters Cosmos again, and the two merge to defend the Earth.

The recurring villain in this series is the Chaos Header, a virus that either infects monsters or replicates them, creating a more violent and aggressive version."

This series is also notable as being the longest TV series of the franchise, with 65 episodes, and three movies. Again the series is very LighterAndSofter and can be very polarizing; still most Ultrafans agree the movies are awesome.

* MultiformBalance

to:

* MultiformBalanceMultiformBalance: Interestingly, at first this is less 'this form is strong and this one isn't' and more 'combat mode and pacify mode.' Luna form has no FinishingMove and largely is devoted to pacifying and purifying it's opponents while Corona mode is more combat based and actually capable of using lethal force. [[SuperMode Eclipse Mode]] is a combination of both and has the ability to do either, and it's FinishingMove can purify good monsters and destroy evil ones (sometimes at the same time).
