Ultraman is a generic term for highly evolved beings found around the universe. Many of these beings have similar appearances, such as metallic like skin and giantism. They have often been sighted in Japan, although there have also been sightings in places such as Australia and the United States.

Ultra Worlds

M78: The Land of Light

The most well known of Ultra worlds, The Land of Light is located in the M78 galaxy, orbiting an artificial sun (the source of their rapid evolution) known as the Plasma Spark. Lead by the Father of Ultra and Mother of Ultra, they strive to protect the universe from all manners of evil, accomplished by the organization known as the Space Garrison, comprised of many Ultra-beings from the planet.

L77

Once located in one of the stars of the constellation Leo, L77 was the home of a highly advanced race of Ultra-beings, known for their strength and determination. Unfortunately, it was destroyed in an attack by Magma-Seijin and the Gila Bros. Only 3 survivors have been recorded.

U40

Considered by some the "Sister" planet of Earth, U40 is the home of a highly evolved race that uses a powerful "group mind" to transform themselves into Ultra-warriors. Only eight of these warriors can change their height. The surface of the planet is deceiving, appearing as nothing more then an idyllic Greek-like civilization, while thousands of complex cities lie under the surface.

The Land of Sparkling

Not much is known about this world, located in the Z45 galaxy.

The Cat Constellation

Located in a constellation known only by certain races, the planet is the home of an advanced race of felines who long ago settled some of their number in secret. Through breeding with the native cats, they brought some of their traits to them and a mission: to give happiness to mankind. Now one of their numbers has returned to see if that mission is being carried out.

Pi-99

Located in the galaxy of M99 and orbiting a double pulsar, this blue planet is surrounded by thick blue clouds that obscure all signs of life from the outside universe. Led by a high council, they seek to observe planets and record any dangers that occur, although this has changed recently to a more active role in such.

Other Universes

As was discovered by Ultraman Mebius, other universes exist that contain their own versions of Ultramen. These include:

  • A universe where world peace was founded in the year 2000 and an ancient giant of light was reawoken. (Ultraman Tiga, Ultraman Dyna) Earth 19967
  • A universe where the Earth was attacked by a creature of chaos and Ultramen were born from the power of Earth itself. (Ultraman Gaia, Ultraman Agul) Earth 19989
  • A universe where a child befriended an injured Ultraman and later became one of the world's greatest heros. (Ultraman Cosmos, Ultraman Justice, Ultraman Legend) Earth 20012
  • A universe where the power of the ultra was reincarnated in several forms and several hosts to defeat a dark villian. (Ultraman The Next, Ultraman Nexus, Ultraman Noa) Earth 20034
  • A universe where a young man becomes a super evolved being known as an Ultraman and finds himself fighting against reawakening beasts. (Ultraman Kaida) Earth 201011
  • A universe where Ultraman is simply a television show and the wishes of a child bring the hero Gaia into this world, as well as conjur monsters. (Ultraman Gaia: Battle in Hyperspace) Earth 19989-B
  • Another universe where Ultraman is simply a television show, and people resembling the human forms of several Ultras exist. (Super Ultra 8 Brothers) Earth 20021
  • A universe where the Earth has become a controlled destopia and aliens attempt to infiltrate Tokyo. (Ultraseven X) Earth 20078

Ultra Types

Most Ultras who arrive to planet Earth require some sort of human form or disguise, partially to fit in among the populace but also in order to survive the harsh differences between the planet and their own world.

The ultra-human disguise factor can be categorized into four different forms:

  • Type A: Type A is a perminate Ultra-Human merger, often done when the human form is near dead or death. Examples of this type of merger are Ultraman The First and Ultraman Jack.
  • Type B: Type B is an Ultra created human form, where the identity has been fully formed from the ultra of their own power, often based in part on some human they have encountered. Examples of this are Ultraseven and Ultraman Mebius.
  • Type C: Type C is a variation on Type A, in being a temporary Ultra-Human merger. Often this merger between lifeforms lasts only as long as the Ultra's assignment on Earth is, where afterwards, the partnership is dissolved and both beings separate. Examples of this are Ultraman Jonias and Ultraman Great.
  • Type D: Type D is both the rarest and most common of Ultra human forms. The Multiple non perminate Ultra-Human disguise. In this case, the ultra will create a disguise or merge with a human for a brief period when they wish to be on the planet. Often they will abandon the disguise after it has served said purpose. Examples of this are Zoffy and Ultraseven21

There is talk of a possible Type E, that being a natural hybrid between an Ultra and non-Ultra lifeform, thus giving them a natural disguise but there has been no evidence of this yet.
