Who is Ultraman?
An alien of justice who came to Earth as an Inter Galactic Defense Force member from Nebula M78 Land of Light, in pursuit of Space Monster Bemular that escaped while being escorted to the Monster Graveyard. After crashing with SSSP member Hayata, Ultraman merged his life with Hayata’s and decided to stay and fight for the peace of the Earth.
Who is Ultraseven?
An alien of justice that visited Earth from Nebula M78 Land of Light. Ultraseven was deeply touched by the act of self-sacrifice of a young earthling who was so considerate of others and gave his life to save his friend, thus Ultraseven decided to stay and fight to defend this wonderful planet and life that lives on from alien invaders.
Who is Ultraman Blazar?
An Ultraman that Gento Hiruma transforms into. He is a Giant of Light that came from M421, a blazar far away from Earth.
When Gento strongly desires power for the sake of justice, the transformation item, Blazar Brace, appears on his left arm. While strongly imbuing his wishes into the crystal Blazer Stone, which holds the power of light, he then loads it into the Blazer Brace and transforms into Ultraman Blazar.
