The☆Ultraman – Kaiju and Aliens / Characters

The various Kaiju, aliens, lesser villains and whatnot faced by Ultraman Joneus and the Science Guard Party in The☆Ultraman.

Minions and underlings affiliated with the Hellers can be found here.

Seagra

Freezing Monster

First appearance: Birth of a New Hero

A quartet of kaiju sealed in an iceberg, released after their icy prison hits the Antarctic Coast, near where the Scientific Defense Guard's Southern base is deployed. Luckily, Choichiro Hikari is stationed right there, and had recently received Ultraman Joneus' powers.

An Ice Person: All four Seagras can breath icy mists as ranged attacks.
Curb-Stomp Battle: They absolutely didn't stand a chance against Joneus. The Ultra destroys two, the third lands a lucky hit on Joneus which briefly seals the hero in ice only for Joneus to energize himself and quickly break out, before destroying the last two with as little effort.
Human Popsicle: Four giant kaiju encased in ice, who shows up in the Arctic sea before breaking out of their ice prisons and going on a rampage.
Starter Villain: They are the first pack of kaiju foes for Ultraman Joneus to overcome. And Joneus wipes them all out with comical ease, firmly establishing himself as a capable hero.
Tail Slap: Another ability they displayed during combat. Not effective against Joneus, however.

Spiral

Tornado Monster

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/spiral_7.png

It's Heart.

First appearance: The Secret of the Shining Pendant

Shortly after the Seagras are defeated, another kaiju called Spiral appears, seemingly from out of nowhere in the ocean. A pulsating heart who can control the weather and appearing in the form of a sentient, living tornado.

Attack Its Weak Point: Spiral is functionally invincible thanks to its tornado form blowing away every attack, but it's heart is it's sole weakness. Destroying it disperses the tornado and eliminating it for good.
Blow You Away: The monster's basic ability, creating a tornado surrounding its core that blows away everything in its path.
Do Not Touch the Funnel Cloud: In classical tornado fashion, touching Spiral's wind body will have victims sucked into its core (Exhibit A: Marume and her fighter jet). But as it turns out, this also leads to the monster's internal heart, it's sole weakness.
Weather Manipulation: Spiral's heart can control wind currents, creating a tornado shell around itself.

Wanigodon

Division Monster

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/juvenilewanigodon.png

Baby Form a.k.a Pero

First appearance: When the Weed Whistle Blows in the Evening

A crocodile-looking monster that awakens from its slumber in the Tōgō Mountain regions. Hikari managed to destroy it without resorting to summoning Ultraman Joneus, but its cells regenerate into a baby monster who then tricks a child into adopting it.

From a Single Cell: The cells of a deceased Wanigodon can detach itself into baby Wanigodons, one which ends up being collected by a child named Takashi.
Mythology Gag: This isn't the first time a baby monster with hostile intent tricks a human child into adopting it as a pet, suckers off some poor kid's kindness as it grows in power, and later reveals its monster form to attack humans. It's actually the fifth. (Exhibit A: Kingstron. Exhibit B: Sabotendar. Exhibit C: Mottokureron. Exhibit D: Absorba.)
Never Smile at a Crocodile: A crocodilian kaiju that goes on a rampage after awakening in the mountains.
There Is Another: The first Wanigodon is quickly put down by Hikari early in the episode, but later on a second Wanigodon — a baby called Pero — tricks itself into becoming a boy's pet, before growing to kaiju size for a rematch.

Red Smogy

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/smogy.jpg

Cloud Monster

First appearance: Chase of the Mysterious Red Cloud

A monster made of red alien smog, descending into earth and assuming a kaiju form. Yes, kind of like an alien variant of Zazahn.

Big Dam Plot: The episode's climax have Red Smogy heading towards a dam, and Ultraman Joneus trying to stop the monster from collapsing it.
Blob Monster: One made of a gaseous material, which materializes into a chubby humanoid form.
Exactly What It Says on the Tin: Red Smogy is a Red Smog monster.
Super Smoke: The monster's primary ability, turning itself into a red smoke before alternating to kaiju form at will. In smog form, Red Smodgy can also cause explosions. But it will be forced back to kaiju form upon being drenched with water.

Monster Is a Mommy: As it turns out, Tough Gillan and Gillas have a brood of baby monsters, called Tough Gillacos, which Joneus finds out AFTER destroying the two. Unable to execute the infants, Joneus instead shrinks the Gillacos into pets.
Non-Malicious Monster: Sadly, neither Gillan nor Gillas are genuinely harmful; they are only trying to mate, but ends up causing problems for the humans due to the massive amount of plants they're eating.
Spike Shooter: Both Gillan and Gillas have the ability to launch their quills from their backs.
Tunnel King: Tough Gillan is a skilled burrower capable of digging a tunnel from Africa to Japan in just a few days.

Not So Extinct: The Fire Badon were assumed to be extinct, until one awakens early in the episode.
Playing with Fire: From setting buildings aflame by flapping its fiery wings, to it's body emanating fiery heat and it's ability to breath fire... does that name ring a bell?
Super-Speed: Fire Badon can fly at Mach 7.

Combugon

Electric Monster

First appearance: Order to Attack! The Objective Is Pigu!

Hailing from a destroyed world, Combugon arrives on earth, firstly consuming the electricity from a satellite, and intends to feast on the electricity on Earth.

Adaptive Ability: Upon being blasted out of the sky, Combugon crashes to earth... anbd proceeds to feast on electrical wiring, turning into a new kaiju form.

More Teeth than the Osmond Family: Combugon's toothy mouth, which is near-busting with its teeth, takes up more than half of its face.

Space Ninja, and the ONE and only!

First appearance: Officer Hikari's Secret Has Been Stolen!?

The most iconic foe of the Ultras since the original Ultraman, and also the only alien enemy from the live-action shows to make it in anime form.

Kansas City Shuffle: This particular Baltan uses this strategy to infiltrate earth for preparing his invasion, firstly by sending his pet kaiju, Mikonos to go on a rampage, and then set up his base while disguising it as an ordiniary town building. At which point he then observes mankind from afar planning the next step of his invasion.

Mikonos

...Monster. Yeah, JUST monster.

First appearance: Officer Hikari's Secret Has Been Stolen!?

Alien Baltan's henchman, an alien gorilla whose purpose is to draw out Ultraman Joneus.

Dumb Muscle: A strong combatant, but not very bright. He's easily outmaneuvered by Ultraman Joneus during their battle. But turns out that's precisely what its boss wants.
Killer Gorilla: A giant alien gorilla sent by Baltan to destroy cities, in order to lure Hikari into becoming Ultraman Joneus, and subsequently allowing Baltan to analyze Joneus' fighting patterns and plan a strategy.
Pet Monstrosity: Of Alien Baltan. Note that this is perhaps the first, and only instance in the franchise where a Baltan have a pet monster (discounting Builgamo from Return of Ultraman, being a robot that isn't sentient in any way).

Dolfiego

A benevolent monster teleported to Japan by George Satake, a wannabe magician. Unfortunately (and predictably) Xalome quickly goes out of control.

Beware My Stinger Tail: Xalome's tail ends in two wicked-looking prongs, which it uses effectively in combat.
Master of Illusion: One of Xalome's abilities, where it conjures illusions of himself to distract his enemies and fools them into attacking where he isn't. But it turns out to be an Awesome, but Impractical ability, for this would have the real Xalome be put under a trance.
Non-Malicious Monster: Xalome is a harmless, hibernating monster living in an isolated desert, until a wannabe magician abducts him.

Liquid Monster

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/liq.png

Liquid life-form

First appearance: The Science Garrison's Challenge!

A monster whose body consists of, er, purple liquid gunk. Which allows it to seep into machinery and control them from within.

Blob Monster: The liquid variety, taking the form of glowing purple goo.
Exactly What It Says on the Tin: It's a monster made of "liquid".
No Name Given: Due to the monster being revealed in the last minute, it's never given an official name by the show, even decades later.

Hectore

Machine Monster

First appearance: The Science Garrison's Challenge!

Initially a state-of-the-art, high-tech and self-aware bulldozer created by mankind to clear away mountains, unfortunately Hectore ends up being controlled by the Liquid Monster.

A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Subverted; Hectore is a human-made intelligent machine meant for excavation purposes, but it only become crazy thanks to being possessed by the Liquid Monster.
Construction Vehicle Rampage: An bulldozer-based mecha who had gone haywire thanks to being hijacked by the Liquid Monster.
Deadly Disc: Its armaments include buzzsaws, which was meant for deforesting. Not its used for trying to slice Ultraman Joneus into bits.

Breath Weapon: All three heads can breath fiery blasts.
Conjoined Twins: An unintentional example — Cho, Jin and San used to be three independent monsters, but after prolonged exposure to pollution all three of them gets merged into a single entity sharing a body.
Multiple Head Case: Three monsters sharing the same body.
Sea Monster: The three monsters came from beneath the sea, until the ocean's pollution fuses them into what they become.

Wave Monster

First appearance: The Sad Legend of the Revived Lake

A monster living in a lake with the ability to transform victims to stone.

The Evil Star / Devil Star

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dev_star.png

That's No Moon

First appearance: A Star of Evil Has Come!!

A sentient asteroid whose appearance causes usually-peaceful, benign monsters to go berserk. It's up to Hikari and friends to figure out how to destroy it, while fending off attacks from kaiju spawned by the star itself.

Arc Villain: For a few episodes, this star is directly responsible for the spawning of various new kaiju, until the Scientific Defense Guard discover it to be the cause of every problem. The arc ends with the star's destruction.

Volcano Monster

First appearance: A Star of Evil Has Come!!

Acid Attack: Goglan has the ability to spew acid, in both larva and moth forms.
Came from the Sky: Goglan's egg arrives on planet earth from a meteorite, crashing into the space station EGG 3 before being kept by the Science Party Guard for observation.
Corrupted Character Copy: Despite being a blatant remake of Mothra, Goglan isn't a protector, and is instead a harmful kaiju.
Expy: He's the show's attempt at making their own version of Mothra, being a monster that starts off as a caterpillar, before turning into a moth-butterfly hybrid.
Metal Muncher: Feeds on metal, which makes it grow larger and larger.
Projectile Webbing: Goglan's caterpillar form can spit sticky threads, like a real caterpillar.

King Moa

Ancient Mysterious Bird

A prehistoric bird believed to be extinct, in baby form the Moa is adopted by Mutsumi as a pet. But it grows into kaiju size upon maturing.

Giant Flyer: A giant bird kaiju based on the extinct moa bird.
Kidnapping Bird of Prey: Kidnaps Mutsumi to be taken to it's nest, where Hikari quickly embarks on a rescue mission. But it turns out King Moa is harmless and only wants to take care of Mutsumi alongside its young.
Non-Malicious Monster: King Moa only wants to set up its nest in an uninhabited island, and have zero intent of harming humans. It's also one of the few monsters spared by Joneus after the final battle.

Badan

Insect Beast

First appearance: The Betamie Has Disappeared!!

A giant locust kaiju from Egypt, responsible for a locust horde terrorizing entire farms in the Egyptian countryside.

Achilles' Heel: Being a giant locust kaiju living in the Egyptian desert, Badan is vulnerable to the cold, which the Scientific Defense Guard exploits in the final battle by blasting Badan with their coolants, allowing Joneus to turn the battle around.
Big Creepy-Crawlies: A giant locust monster from Egypt.
Eye Beams: Can fire ruby bolts of lasers from its compound eyes.
The Swarm: Badan is capable of controlling entire swarms of locusts, which it uses to devour entire fields in Egypt. It uses this very tactic to sic its locusts on Ultraman Joneus in the penultimate battle to distract the hero.

Islanda

Reef Monster

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/islanda_2.PNG

It's appendages.

First appearance: The Mysterious Monster Island

What was assumed to be an uninhabited island in the Pacific Island, reputed by local sailors to be a forbidden zone guarded by giant sea serpents, turns out to be a new monster called Islanda, where the serpents are revealed to be Islanda's numerous appendages.

Attack of the Monster Appendage: Type-I example, where Islanda's snake-like tentacles are most of what the audience sees most of the episode until the final battle reveals those tentacles to be attached to a giant turtle-like body.
Expy: The monster's motif being an island is likely inspired by Dragonsaurus from Grendizer, Getter Robo G, Great Mazinger: Kessen! Daikaijuu, from three years ago.
Turtle Island: It's appearance and default form is an island in the middle of the Pacific, where its tentacles lashes out at ships that comes too close.

Spirit Parasite

We mean the glowing orb, of course.

First appearance: This is The Ultra Star trilogy

A living energy orb created by the Bader in order to wipe out Ultras.

The Assimilator: It’s basic MO is to infect life forms it touches, turning them into monsters. It created Gerada by infecting a monitor lizard, and upon Gerada’s destruction it then assimilates a cobra turning it to Janyur.

It Can Think: Despite being a bio-weapon, the Spirit Parasite is fully sentient, capable of creating life via assimilation.
This Was His True Form: Reverts to a floating orb of light once its physical form is destroyed, at which point it would seek another target to possess.

Gerada

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gerado_6.jpg

Reptile Monster

First appearance: This is The Ultra Star trilogy

Dumb Muscle: Fittingly enough, since Gerada is the first of the Spirit Parasite's summons.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bedoran.jpg

Reptile Monster redux

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bedoran_live_face.png

Live-Action Form

First appearance: This is The Ultra Star trilogy

Another one of the Spirit Parasite’s hosts, a stegosaurus-like monster.Bedran is one of the few monsters from the anime to be depicted later in live-action form, where a suit of Bedran is constructed for Ultraman: Great Monster Decisive Battle, battling Ultraman Joneus in similar live-action form.

Art Evolution: In the live-action suit example, at least. Bedran's green body is now painted black, and its horns are now bone-white.
Breakout Villain: Besides showing up in live-action form, Bedran is also name-dropped in Ultraman Z as one of the previous monsters contained by STORAGE, hibernating in Africa.
In a Single Bound: Despite it's massive size as a kaiju, Bedran can leap far and high during its battles.

Mechanical Monster: One based on a serpent.
Multiple Head Case: In its revived form as Janyur III, it has three heads each capable of attacking on its own.
Orochi: Janyur III is meant to, at the very least, resemble a robot equivalent of the classical Orochi myth.
Snakes Are Sinister: A powerful monster based off a cobra, and one of Joneus' deadliest foes at the point of the show.

Alien Bader

Atrocious Alien

First appearance: This is The Ultra Star trilogy

A tribe of barbaric aliens who sees the Ultramen of U40 as their enemies.

Arch-Enemy: Of the U40 Ultramen, and they're far from the only ones in the show.
Arc Villain: In two episodes (20 - 21), with them pulling the strings behind Bagon's assault. And despite being defeated, their creation, Garbados, would make a comeback 10 episodes later in 31 for another attempt on assaulting the heroes.

Multipurpose Tongue: Zaanmoth, lacking limbs, has a prehensile tongue capable of grabbing enemies, which it used against Joneus.
Non-Malicious Monster: One of the few monsters from Joneus' show that isn't hostile. Zaanmoth is just an outsider unfortunately stranded in our world, and only wants to find a way home.
Our Monsters Are Weird: An armless, mandolin-shaped monster whose head is located on it's crotch. Justified because Zaanmoth hails from a different dimension than either the humans or Ultras.

Zanba

Fast Monster

First appearance: The Supersonic Battle

A monster from outer space destroying everything in its path. And it's heading towards earth.

Blow You Away: Zanba can fire powerful gusts of wind through it's mouth.

Human Hammer-Throw: Was on the receiving end of this by Joneus when the Ultra grabbed both of Zanba's tails and swings it in circles. It gets better.
Razor Wings: Zanba's wings can cut through metals with ease, shredding through airplanes and ships and easily decimating the defense forces.
Spike Shooter: It has the ability to fire its horns like spiked projectiles.
Super-Speed: Zanba's subtitles are "Fast Monster" and he certainly lives up to that name speeding all over the place while going on a rampage.
Torso with a View: At the peak of its battle, Ultraman Joneus finally scored a mortal injury on Zanba by spinning like a corkscrew and tackling the monster's abdomen, leaving behind a gaping hole large enough to fly through.

Dragodos

Ship form.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dragodos_ultraman_jonias_november_2019_08.png

Space Dragon

First appearance: Two Officer Mutsumi's

An out-of-control robotic dragon on a killing spree, on both humans and aliens alike.

A.I. Is a Crapshoot: It's a fully sentient, intelligent robot capable of thought and instincts. Unfortunately it's also driven to massacre everything in its way.
Attack the Tail: An example that for once, isn't dished out by the Ultra, but when Dragodos managed to constrict Ultraman Joneus and use its buzzsaw-equipped tail to dismember the Ultra, the Science Guard Party gives Joneus a hand by shooting the tail off.
Beware My Stinger Tail / Deadly Disc: Dragodos' tail contains a circular saw which it attempt to slice up Joneus with.
Breath Weapon: Breath fire.

First appearance: The Flower Garden of Evil

An alien flower from the desert that grows and grows until it takes on a kaiju form.

Combat Tentacles: Growing out of its back, which it uses to ensnare Joneus and battle human defenses.
Expy: It's very likely based on Astromons from Ultraman Taro, being another plant kaiju starting as a giant flower before assuming a bipedal form.
Foul Flower: A giant plant-based monster whose life-form started off as a flower, before turning to kaiju form. With its floral form growing out its stomach.
Planimal: Despite its origin as a plant / flower, Death Balan's head looks closer to a mammal.

Gibaaronga

Evil Monster

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gibaarogashell.png

Compact Form

First appearance: Earth's Ultimate Crisis!!

A parasite from another planet, Gibaaronga comes to earth to feed on its nutrients.

An Arm and a Leg: Joneus managed to turn the final battle around by ripping off its right arm-tentacle.
Belly Mouth: Where it feeds from, and where it uses to drain the planet of resources.
Combat Tentacles: Uses two in place of arms, which allows Gibaaronga to slap its victims silly.
Mind over Matter: During its battle with Joneus, when the Ultra lands a lucky strike on its back Gibaaronga uses this ability to life Joneus into the air.
Oh, Crap!: The look on Gibaaronga's face (complete with Wide Eyes and Shrunken Irises) when Joneus lands a killing blow.
Shout-Out: It's central gorge seems to be lifted from Bemstar.
Sleep-Mode Size: Comes in two sizes, a lump of sponges when its hibernating and absorbing the planet's nutrients, and a starfish-esque kaiju when on a rampage.
Starfish Aliens: Its monster form, at least, resembling a massive starfish complete with abdominal mouth.
Telepathy: Lacking vocal organs, this is how Gibaaronga communicates.

Alien Baladon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/baladon.PNG

Space Demon

First appearance: The Flying Monster Island!

A group of dangerous aliens responsible for destruction of numerous planets. Targeting earth, these aliens abducted the souls of six monsters — Red King, Aboras, Banila, Ghostron, Arstron and Gokinezula — and revives them as their lackeys.

Arch-Enemy: What did we say about the U40 Ultras having plenty of these?
Evil Genius: Given their small size, the Baladon relies on their wits, preferring strategies instead of a direct assault.
Godzilla Threshold: To get around their Ultraman problems, these aliens revives six monsters (all of them from past series) as their own weapons.
Little Green Men: An evil example.

Aboras and Banila

First appearance: The Flying Monster Island!

Two other kaiju from Ultraman serving the Baladon.(See Ultraman TV Series for tropes relating to their original incarnations.)

Art Evolution: Delivered to both monsters, now they have additional spikes, claws, and a different shade of colouring.
Mythology Gag: Bringing back Aboras and Banila, side-by-side, is an obvious nod to their debut in the original Ultraman''.
Tunnel King: In this series, both monsters can travel underground by digging. This is the only instance in the franchise thus far of them displaying this particular ability.
Villain Decay: Both Aboras and Banila are now demoted to Baladon lackeys, and quickly wiped out by Joneus.

Arstron, Ghostron and Gokinezula

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ghostron_arstron.PNG

Are we sure they're brothers?

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gokinezula.PNG

Sadly, this is the LAST we'll ever see of Gokinezula in the entire franchise.

First appearance: The Flying Monster Island!

Three more kaiju mooks serving the Baladon, this time taken from Return of Ultraman.(See Return of Ultraman for tropes relating to their original incarnations.)

Mêlée à Trois: All three of them ends up fighting each other, although before a winner can be decided Red King suddenly pops up and rips all three if them some new, scaly rears.
Mythology Gag: It seems fitting that Arstron and Ghostron would appear side-by-side here, since Arstron and Ghostron were made from the same suit, back in Return of Ultraman and were speculated to be related.
Villain Decay: Like Aboras and Banila above, they are reduced to mere pawns of the Baladon.

Red King

Return of the King

First appearance: The Flying Monster Island!

The most iconic kaiju from the original Ultraman, now back in animated form. It's also fittingly the Baladon's champion.

Emerging from the Shadows: How Red King is introduced, being released from a Baladon cell.
Half the Man He Used to Be: This Red King gets killed via vertical dismenberment thanks to Joneus' Boomerang Guillotine.
The Juggernaut: Fittingly enough, one of the most dreaded original Ultraman monsters is also depicted as the Baladon's ultimate trump card.

Fundus, Choirus and Dabaran

Fundus

Choirus

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dabaran.jpg

Combination Monster Dabaran

First appearance: The New Cap Has Arrived!

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jadan.jpg

As Jagon

First appearance: Devil UFO Large Invasion

A race of aliens led by their leader, Commander Boa. They have intentions to eliminate Ultraman Joneus in mind allowing their invasion, as well as the ability to transform themselves into the two-headed dragon kaiju Jagon.

Breath Weapon: Fitting for a dragon-based monster, Jagon can breath fire from both heads.
Fusion Dance: The Jadan aliens transforms into Jagon by holding their wrists together.
Multiple Head Case: Jagon has two heads, both which can breath fire.
Our Dragons Are Different: Two-headed alien kaiju dragons!

Skeldon

Bone Monster

First appearance: The Enormous Fossil Has Come to Life

The resurrected skeleton of a carnivorous dinosaur. Displayed in a museum after being excavated, for some reason the bones started coming to life on their own.

Acid Attack: Has the ability to spit acid at its foes.
Dem Bones: A walking dinosaur skeleton kaiju, and not the first in the Ultra Series. Nor the last.
Expy: A living dinosaur skeleton which can spew acid seems a lot like Stegon from Return of Ultraman, the main difference however being that it's based on a bipedal carnivorous dinosaur instead of a harmless herbivore.
Pulling Themselves Together: Blasting Skeldon into pieces wouldn't work, because its bones can reattach themselves on their own. Unless it's drained off energy first, that is.

Garbados

Robo Monster

First appearance: Object X from Outer Space

The giant robot mecha serving Alien Babilar.

Achilles' Heel: Megasaura's weak underbelly is its main weak spot, where scoring a direct hit destroys it instantly.
Humongous Mecha: A giant robot created by the Alien Babilars.
Wave-Motion Gun: That's what the giant cannon on it's tip is for. It's even strong enough to nulify Joneus' Planium Beam!

Gamiba

Gamiba Spore

Gamiba kaiju

First appearance: Go! Magma's Desperate Sphere

A race of underground critters that feeds on minerals, until they start attaching to each other, becoming gradually larger in size, culminating in itsd kaiju form.

Acid Attack: In kaiju form, Gamiba can spit acid.
Metal Muncher: It feeds on metal.
Palate Propping: As it attempts to swallow Ultraman Joneus whole, the Ultra uses HIMSELF to prop Gamiba's mouth open, before firing his Planium Ray down the monster's throat.
Volumetric Mouth: Gamiba's jaws extends all the way from its face to the abdomen.
The Worm That Walks: Its default form is a series of underground-dwelling critters from the planet's core, and can increase their sizes by combining with each other. When the entire Gamiba population combines, it transforms into its massive kaiju form.
Zerg Rush: How Gamiba attacks in critter form, but it that doesn't work, then it's fusion time.
