* BadExportForYou: The show received a US release along with Series/UltramanEighty in the west...on standard DVD. The reason for this is because Tsuburaya as of yet has not given these shows an HD remastering so Mill Creek Entertainment found no reason to given them a Blu-ray release.
* ColbertBump: ''The Ultraman'' was hit with this in the year 2019, courtesy of ''Series/UltramanTaiga'', a series which featured Ultraman Titas (a U40 Ultra) amongst the cast members. It also helped that 2019 was the 40th anniversary of the aforementioned anime.
* DevelopmentGag: The final episodes which featured the Heller Army's invasion attempts on Earth was taken from a scrapped plot of the final arc of ''Series/UltramanLeo'' about "a war between two worlds".
* FollowTheLeader: ''The Ultraman'' was produced in the late 70's as to cash in with the anime boom at that period.
* HeAlsoDid: Believe it or not, since ''The Ultraman'' is an anime made by Creator/{{Sunrise}} and aired at the same year as ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam'', it is best expected that some of the people behind ''Gundam'' also lend a hand in this anime:
** Kunio Okawara (the mecha designer) does the design for Super Mardock.
** Creator/YoshiyukiTomino directed the last four episode of ''The Ultraman''. Ironically despite his infamous fan nickname for killing '''a hell lot''' of characters, this anime is surprisingly one of his subversion, even if the one he directed has a space war theme going on.
