Series background[edit]Ultraman '​s central characters were created by Eiji Tsuburaya from Tsuburaya Productions, a pioneer in special effects who was responsible for bringing Godzilla to life in 1. The show's predecessor was a series called Ultra Q, a black- and- white 2. Outer Limits. The Ultraman project had the following working titles/plots: Wo. O(WoO,Wū?): This story featured a corporeal space creature with two large eyes, who befriended a reporter named Jôji Akita, but the Self Defense Forces, who perceived the alien as a threat, went after them.
This was basically the monster version of the British science fiction series Doctor Who (1. Woo's personality was also to be comical. The name "Woo" ended up being used for an otherwise unrelated, yeti- like monster, in episode 3. Ultraman. Later, Tsuburaya Productions would ultimately produce a series dubbed Bio Planet Wo.

ДЃ?), then retitled Scientific Special Search Party: Bemlar(科е¦з‰№жЌњйљЉгѓ™гѓ гѓ©гѓј,Kagaku Tokus. ЕЌ Tai – Bemur. ДЃ?): The main characters are a defense force, with the same Japanese name as the Science Special Search Party (often dubbed as the "Science Patrol"), but disguised as an art/photography team. One of the members, unknown to anyone (even his teammates), gained the ability to transform into a giant birdlike humanoid monster called Bemlar (not the same Bemlar that Ultraman would fight in Episode # 1 of the actual series), who defends Earth from monsters, aliens and other threats.
Unlike Woo, Bemlar was a tough and righteous fighter, and he looked very similar in design to the title monster of the 1. Gappa, the Triphibian Monster. Allegedly, the plot was scrapped when it was worried audiences might have trouble telling that one monster was good and the other evil. Redman(гѓ¬гѓѓгѓ‰гѓћгѓі,Reddoman?): The title hero of this project slightly resembled Ultraman as he came to be known, but he looked more demonic and had horns. He came to Earth after his planet was destroyed by aliens from Planet X.
Ultra Seven also shared this working title.)Both Bemlar and Redman were designed by Toru Narita, who also came up with the final design for Ultraman based on his Redman design, now resembling a less- scary Buck Rogers- style alien being, mixed with a bit of the iconic "Roswell Alien." The characteristic "Color Timer," more familiar to American audiences as the "warning light" on Ultraman's chest, was added at the eleventh hour. The first series begins when Science Special Search Party (科е¦з‰№е€ҐжЌњжџ»йљЉ,Kagaku Tokubetsu SЕЌsa- tai?) member Shin Hayata is flying his plane and a red sphere of light crashes into his Mini- VTOL. The sphere turns out to be the transport (Travel Sphere) for a giant red- and- silver being who calls himself Ultraman.
Feeling remorse for having killed the human, he merges his essence with Hayata to save him. In return, Hayata serves as the human host for this being, and whenever danger threatens, and the resources of the Science Special Search Party are not enough to counter it, he raises and activates a power- object and artifact called a "beta capsule" and transforms to Ultraman to save the day. Heroes and monsters[edit]. Ultraman fighting the monster Gyango from episode 1. The Rascal from Outer Space. The Ultraman series used various monster costumes, known as kaiju in Japan, prior to other series such as Kamen Rider and Super Sentai.
The principals were played by famous monster suit actor Haruo Nakajima, who performed as the original Godzilla. Another Toho actor, Satoshi "Bin" Furuya, was sought out for the role of Ultraman, because of his tall stature and perfect proportions. In the image from episode 1. The Ruffian from Outer Space" (right), we see an example confrontation, with Ultraman and the monster Gyango squaring off in a plaza in front of a hi- rise complex which will soon be trampled, and dwarfing the tree line. Nakajima had an outdoor- sports and martial- arts background, and they decided that Ultraman would not seem alien if he was using earth- bound martial arts techniques.
So Ultraman's fighting style was a mixture of grappling, Greco- Roman wrestling, and some Japanese martial arts, which evolved during the course of the series. Often costumes of famous monsters like Godzilla (as Jirass/Keyra in "The Mysterious Dinosaur Island") and Baragon would be recycled and altered, sometimes with nothing more than spray paint and often while the actor was still inside. Nakajima quipped once that the staggering gait of some of the monsters he portrayed was due less to his acting than to the fumes he had to endure. Some of the quadrupedal monster costumes could not be shown fully as his legs dragging on the ground would have been exposed, a necessary allowance to maintain balance in the often cumbersome outfits. Also, the expense of repairing the scale cities and landscapes used for battle scenes required economy of movement and meticulous planning.
Not all monsters resembled Godzilla or a dinosaur. Others included giant insects (The Blue Stone of Vallarge) or insect like creatures (The Spaceship Rescue Command); carnivorous plants (The Secret of Miloganda), mutated and giant humans or humanoids (My Home is the Earth), aliens, some with a very inhuman appearance (Blast the Invaders), a colorful aquatic monster looking like a cross between a sea turtle and a narwhal (The Undersea Science Center), a yeti (Phantom of the Snow Mountains), and even a mobile spherical bio- mechanoid creature from a higher dimension (Passport to Infinity). English title card for the US- produced English dub.
The storyline begins in the near future, as referenced from the mid- 1. In episode 2. 3, "My Home Is Earth," it is definitively established that the series takes place in the early 1.
However, this was later retconned by the introduction of The Return of Ultraman, which takes place in 1. Sinister aliens and giant monsters constantly threaten civilization during this period. The only Earth organization equipped to handle these disasters and menaces is the Science Special Search Party, or SSSP, a special worldwide police force equipped with high- tech weapons and vehicles as well as extensive scientific and engineering facilities; this organization is called the Science Patrol, or the United Nations Scientific Investigation Agency, in the English- dubbed version syndicated in the United States.
The branch of the Science Special Search Party that is focused on in the series is located in Tokyo, Japan. Led by Captain "Cap" Toshio Muramatsu (shortened to "Captain Mura" in the dubbed English- language version), the Science Special Search Party is always ready to protect the Earth from rampaging monsters. But sometimes it finds itself outclassed. One day, Shin Hayata, the Patrol's most capable member, was patrolling near a lake when he witnessed a space monster named Bemular flee, being chased by an orb of red energy.
Hayata also gave chase to Bemular, but the orb of red energy collided with Hayata's ship, causing both to crash land and killing Hayata in the process. Ultraman, who was generating the red orb, felt guilty for killing the capable scientist/soldier, and to make up for the terrible thing he had done, chose to revive Hayata in exchange for him becoming his host, who would contain him while he was on Earth. From that day forward, Ultraman staunchly defended Earth against aliens and monsters, with Hayata and the SSSP assisting him. After Ultraman appeared, he would fight the threat until it was defeated, and he would then fly away to revert to his host. This was shown, twice, by Ultraman firing a ring of energy from his hands that would fly to a safe location, and then energy from it would materialize Hayata even as Ultraman himself faded away at the same time.) Ultraman's victory was never assured, however, as Ultraman's powers and, indeed, his very life force, came from rapidly depleted solar energy, which was heavily reduced by Earth's filtering atmosphere. Ultraman faces the Space Dinosaur Zetton in the finale, Farewell, Ultraman. When Ultraman first appears, his "color timer," or "warning light," is always a rich cyan color.
As time goes on, the color timer turns solid red, and then starts to blink, giving off a warning chime as it does so. When Ultraman runs out of energy, the color timer goes out, and turns black.
Ultraman's color timer is linked directly to his heart, and damaging it will cause mortal injury or serious pain to Ultraman. In the series finale, a race of Aliens named the Zettonians, and their vanguard Kaiju, Zetton, attack.
Ultraman appears to fight Zetton, but is mortally wounded after Zetton, employing a weapon Ultraman had not expected (one directly targeting his color timer/warning light), damages his color timer/warning light, causing him to lose almost all his energy instantly. When Zoffy, Ultraman's superior, comes to retrieve the fallen hero, Ultraman pleads for Hayata's life and offers his life completely, so that Hayata may live as a normal man.
Zoffy then says he has brought two life- forces and that he will give one to Hayata.
