Anti-Monster Robot Unit STORAGE (対怪獣ロボット部隊 ストレイジ, Tai Kaijū Robotto Butai Sutoreiji)[lower-alpha 1] is an attack team established to fight monsters and the disasters they create using special anti-monster combat robots.[2][3] Their preference in robots is due to Japan's popular culture with it.[1][4] The team itself is separated into two divisions: the Special Airborne Armor that actively combat monsters and the mechanic team that repairs SAA machines. Nonetheless, both factions are easily cooperative with each other.[5] After the destruction of Kelbim through a test run with D4 Ray, STORAGE was disbanded when the majority of its members protested Kuriyama and the upper command of GAFJ for their unethical use of D4.[6] Whereas a portion of them were relegated to different jobs in separate departments, Yoko and a handful of former members were given positions in its succeeding group, SAAG. At the time of Celebro's reign of terror towards the entire globe as Destrudos, Hebikura/Juggler amasses the former STORAGE members and mutinied against the SAAG to take down the alien parasite in a final fight that determines the fate of the Planet Earth. At the end of the battle, STORAGE was reinstated into GAFJ with Celebro under captivity, while Hebikura/Juggler and Haruki had since left the team for outer space.
When a STORAGE member piloted a SAA unit, remaining operatives in the field would usually drive into the scene with a Toyota LQ-based STEGG (ステッグ, Suteggu)[lower-alpha 2] patrol car and armed with a beam rifle.[7][8][9]
STORAGE's artificial intelligence is voiced by Katsumi Fukuhara (福原 かつみ, Fukuhara Katsumi).[10][11]
Haruki Natsukawa
Haruki Natsukawa (ナツカワ ハルキ, Natsukawa Haruki)[lower-alpha 3][12][13] is the 23-year-old protagonist of the series, a rookie pilot of STORAGE and a Karate master with a huge sense of justice. He bonded with Z after a near-death experience and ever since then transforms into the giant to combat daily monster attacks.[12][13][4] At some point in the fight against the Red Kings, Haruki begins to doubt the ideas of "lives to be protected" and "beings to be killed" after realizing that some of the monsters he fought were not inherently malicious, until the visit to his father in his past puts his doubts to rest. During the disbandment of STORAGE, Haruki was relegated to SAAG's guarding officer before Juggler reformed their old team to rescue Yoko and defeating Destrudos.[14] At the end of the final episode, Haruki decided to depart for outer space in order to help those in need, forcing him to part ways with STORAGE members but swears to return for Bon Festival and New Years Day celebration.[15][16]
Using the Ultra Z Riser (ウルトラゼットライザー, Urutora Zetto Raizā) and his personalized Ultra Access Card (ウルトラアクセスカード, Urutora Akusesu Kādo), Haruki can transform into Ultraman Z and his different forms. By scanning three different Ultra Medals (ウルトラメダル, Urutora Medaru) stored in his Z Holder (ゼットホルダー, Zetto Horudā), Haruki can grant Z access to different forms based on past Ultra Warriors and perform the Ultra's finishing moves.[17][18] The Z Riser was developed by Ultraman Hikari and received its name when Ultraman Z volunteered to be a tester under Zero's suggestion.
Haruki Natsukawa is portrayed by Kohshu Hirano (平野 宏周, Hirano Kōshū).[12][13][5] As a child, Haruki is portrayed by Sōma Ueno (上野 蒼真, Ueno Sōma).
Shota Hebikura (ヘビクラ ショウタ, Hebikura Shōta)[lower-alpha 3][2][3] is STORAGE's 34-year-old captain who acts as an older brother-like figure to the rest of his young teammates. Like Haruki, Hebikura is also athletic and usually puts the rookie through intensive drills in the training room. His true identity is Phantom Demon Jugglus Juggler (無幻魔人 ジャグラスジャグラー, Mugen Majin Jagurasu Jagurā), the rival character from Ultraman Orb[19][4] who plans to steal mankind's strongest robot in order to prove himself worthy after being humiliated for slicing the Tree of Life back in Ultraman Orb: The Origin Saga. Despite bidding his time in STORAGE to steal one of their SAA Units, Juggler went into developing a genuine bond with the team members and would resort to use whatever necessary methods to keep them safe.
As revealed in Life's Decision Height: The Story of STORAGE's Foundation, Juggler arrived on Earth in year 2010 after chasing Grigio Raiden. He slipped into the ranks of GAFJ by replacing the recently deceased member Shota Hebikura and passing off his different appearance as a case of reconstructive surgery from the accident. Fast forward to the present day in Ultraman Z, he crafted his own Dark Z Riser (ダークゼットライザー, Dāku Zetto Raizā) from Haruki/Z's Z Riser during Peguila's incident, allowing him to become Zeppandon or any of the fusion monsters.[19][20][4] Although mostly on-duty as Hebikura, Juggler would resort to his Demon form during undercover missions and spying on Celebro's schemes. After STORAGE's disbandment, Juggler quit the GAFJ as a whole and exposed his identity to Haruki/Z after rescuing Yoko from Ultroid Zero,[14] but chooses to save his former co-worker over stealing the Ultroid Zero to himself.[21] With Destrudos running rampant across the world, Juggler reform STORAGE to reclaim their facility and incapacitated the SAAG members before they commenced their attack. After Celebro's capture by Yuka, Juggler decided to leave the team and embark for outer space, finally returning to his old tuxedo.
Combined Lord Monster Zeppandon (合体魔王獣 ゼッパンドン, Gattai Maō-jū Zeppandon, 5, 24):[19][22] A fusion of Zetton, Pandon and Maga-Orochi's tail that debuted in episode 16 of Ultraman Orb.[23] After creating his copy of Z Riser, the Monster Medals of their components also allow him to reform said monster for combat purposes, first used to test Z's Z Lance Arrow.[20] In addition to the Tri/Five King, Zeppandon and the Dark Z Riser was Juggler's sole means of fighting giant opponents after losing his ability to become giant prior to the series. Juggler reused Zeppandon for the second and final time in order to fight Five King/Celebro over the possession of Ultroid Zero. The resulting fight ended with a stalemate when Juggler was forced to abandon Ultroid for Haruki's life, effectively destroying his Dark Z Riser.
Takaya Aoyagi (青柳 尊哉, Aoyagi Takaya) reprises his role as Jugglus Juggler.[2][3][5]
Yoko Nakashima
Yoko Nakashima (ナカシマ ヨウコ, Nakashima Yōko)[lower-alpha 3][3][24] is a 24-year-old female member and ace pilot of STORAGE. She has admiration for older men and Ultraman Z, often referring to him as "Lord Z".[4] Because of her higher score in test piloting, Yoko is usually assigned to pilot the King Joe STORAGE Custom, as she is capable of handling the robot's complex systems.
Yoko's father was a GAFJ officer who taught her in self-defense skills and shaped her mentality into dating stronger men. This resulted in her frequently challenging her admirers to arm-wrestling matches which she has never once lost.[4] After STORAGE's disbandment, Yoko was conscripted into SAAG to pilot the Ultroid Zero.[14] In the penultimate episode, Celebro possessed Yoko as its final host and prepares to exterminate mankind by piloting Ultroid Zero, later Destrudos.[21][4] Yoko was rescued by Haruki through King Joe STORAGE Custom, where she exorcised Celebro on her own and reclaim the Belial Medal for Z to reform Delta Rise Claw.
Yoko Nakashima is portrayed by Rima Matsuda (松田 リマ, Matsuda Rima).[3][24][5]
Kojiro Inaba
Kojiro Inaba (イナバ コジロー, Inaba Kojirō)[lower-alpha 3][25][26] is the 59-year-old leader of STORAGE's mechanics division in maintaining their Special Aircraft robots and is deeply trusted by other co-workers. He is nicknamed "Bako" (バコさん, Bako-san) and gives off a Shōwa atmosphere.
As revealed in Life's Decision Height: The Story of STORAGE's Foundation novel, Inaba joined the Global Allied Forces in his late 20s. After several promotions, he was assigned to the Institute of Advanced Studies, participating in the development of weapons and serving as a test pilot. While secretly designing bipedal robots in his spare time, he was introduced to Kuriyama by then-GAFJ director Kimisaki, wherein both of them established the GAFJ robot development department in 2009. Although reluctant to use Grigio Raiden as a reference material, Kuriyama managed to persuade Inaba by taking full responsibility.
Following STORAGE's disbandment in the present day by Celebro-possessed Kuriyama, Inaba quit GAFJ and entrusting his former workers in SAAG to take care of the SAA Units. He eventually returned when Juggler decided to reform the team and piloted Sevenger during their operation to save Yoko.[4]
Yuka Ohta (オオタ ユカ, Ōta Yuka)[lower-alpha 3][26][28] is the 22-year-old lead scientist with passion for monsters, hence her occupation in STORAGE allows her to observe them closely.[21] Yuka develops the anti-monster combat robots and knowledgeable about biology and historic legends, which help with her analysis. When conducting experiments on monsters, Yuka brings their essence or specific body parts to STORAGE's headquarters for examination.[29] She often makes and offers questionable juice mix with mysterious ingredients to others.
Yuka's fondness in monsters started in her great-grandmother's hometown, Shishigaoka Town (獅子ヶ丘町, Shishigaoka-chō), 18 years prior to the series. During her stay at her great-grandmother's home, after hearing the legend of Horoboros from her great-grandmother, she encountered the very monsters when she was lost in its territory at night.[4][30] After STORAGE's disbandment, Yuka was relegated into a researcher in Monster Research Center until Juggler saved her from the GAFJ forces and rejoined STORAGE to rescue Yoko from Destrudos. When the monster was destroyed, Yoko and Kaburagi managed to catch Celebro for dissection.[4]
Yuka usually carries a personal tablet for communication and analysis purposes. It can also act as a control console by attaching it to a SAA Unit's cockpit.[31] The only SAA she ever piloted was the King Joe STORAGE Custom, remote controlling the Leg Carrier to assist Yoko/Sevenger in finishing Barossa III.
Yuka Ohta is portrayed by Hikari Kuroki (黒木 ひかり, Kuroki Hikari).[26][28][5] As a child, Yuka is portrayed by Azuki Terada (寺田 藍月, Terada Azuki).

SC
The SC (特空機, Tokkūki, also known as SAA, "Special Airborne Armor"),[5] short for Anti-Monster Special Airborne Armor (対怪獣特殊空挺機甲, Tai Kaijū Tokushu Kūtei Kikō) are giant robots manufactured by STORAGE in order to combat against monsters and participating in rescue operations.[35][36] The mechas were developed by lead scientist Yuka and maintained by Inaba's team of mechanics after each sortie.[25][28] Due to limited budget, only two units (Sevenger and Windom) were initially manufactured, although additional models are considered for development.[37] As revealed by the director, the SC units were made based on GAFJ's decade-long attempt in studying and reverse-engineer of Grigio Raiden's mechanical physiology on Yamanashi Prefecture. With the sole exception of Sevenger, who had been sent to a museum operated by GAFJ to promote the other machines, the SC Units were assigned to SAAG during STORAGE's temporary disbandment.
SC-1 Sevenger (特空機1号 セブンガー, Tokkūki Ichi-gō Sebungā):[35][37] The first of STORAGE's mecha to be created and the first human-built robot mecha, piloted Haruki and/or Yoko.[1] Within each missions, Sevenger can only operate for 3 minutes, based on its three battery packs.[1] In terms of long-distance transportation from STORAGE's base, it has a jetpack with separate fuel. Inaba would modify Sevenger to include Rigid Core Iron Fist Rocket (硬芯鉄拳弾, Kōshin Tekken-dan) punch attack. At some point after Grigio Raiden's death, Sevenger was decommissioned to be put in a museum for display as King Joe took over its role as STORAGE's major SC unit.[38] During STORAGE's disbandment and Alien Barossa III's attack, Yoko choose to pilot Sevenger in against the alien and finish it with Beliarok's help. In the final battle against Destrudos, Inaba piloted Sevenger with the Super Rigid Core Drill Fist (超硬芯回転鉄拳, Chō Kōshin Kaiten Tekken) to support Haruki/King Joe SC and Juggler/Windom during their operation to save Yoko.[4] First appeared in episode 34 of Ultraman Leo,[36] Sevenger's introduction to the series was suggested by director Taguchi for a cuter character and to prevent Ultraman Z from being overshadowed by stronger robots at the series' premier.[39] In Sevenger Fight, Sevenger was given a faulty rifle named SC Support Weapon 40mm General Purpose Autocannon (特空機支援火器40ミリ汎用機関砲, Tokkūki Shien Kaki Yonjū-miri Han'yō Kikan-hō) and Type-20 Bayonet Type-2 (20式銃剣2型, Nijū-shiki Jūken Ni-gata) dagger.[40]
Underwater Sevenger (水中セブンガー, Suichū Sebungā):[lower-alpha 5] An underwater-oriented armament for Sevenger, which includes the Type-18 120mm Monster Capture Cannon (18式120mm捕獣砲, Jū-hachi-shiki Hyaku-nijū-mirimētoru Hojū-hō)harpoon cannon. Prior to Ultraman Z's arrival in Fight! Sevenger, STORAGE were ordered to take care of Deeplus' attack in Suruga Bay. Bako and his team of mechanics modified Sevenger into an underwater combat robot, which Haruki piloted and fired the harpoon onto the monster. When Deeplus damaged Sevenger's jetpack, Haruki made use of the incident by dragging the monster to the surface.
SC-1M Space Sevenger (特空機1号改 宇宙セブンガー, Tokkūki Ichi-gō Kai Uchū Sebungā): A modified variant of Sevenger which Yuka constructed for space exploration, appeared exclusively in episodes 6 and 7 of Sevenger Fight. At some point after Haruki and Z's departure to outer space, Yoko and Yuka boarded Sevenger in a test drive to Mars, but its warp drive broke mid-journey, forcing the robot to crash landed in a planet where monsters were running wild.[41] It received assistance from both Juggler and Ultraman Z Beta Smash. Its weapon is the Type-20 Versatile Electromagnetic Baton (20式多用途電磁警棒, Nijū-shiki Tayōto Denji Keibō).[40]
Sevenger: Mega Water Cannon Pack Equipped Type (セブンガー・メガ放水パック装備型, Sebungā Mega Hōsui Pakku Sōbi-gata): A water dispensing equipment that Sevenger armed with in order to counter Vortech Fire's attack, only for said equipment to be destroyed. Appeared exclusively in chapter 7 of Fight! Sevenger.
Fireproof Armor (耐火装甲, Taika Sōkō): A set of armor that covers Sevenger on every parts of the body, save for the head and arm joints. Created from the analysis of Vortech Fire's attacks, it is capable of resisting against opponents with flame attacks and has a built-in cooling system. The armor was used in chapters 10 and 11 of Fight! Sevenger and is later purged from the titular robot by Yoko in order to continue the fight with Ashuran.
XSAA-8 SC-2 Prototype Machine (特空機2号試作機, Tokkūki Ni-gō Shisakuki): The machine which serves as a prototype to Windom that appeared in Fight! Sevenger chapter 8, which Yoko piloted to assist Haruki/Sevenger in carrying Red Smogy towards Vortech Fire.
SC-2 Windom (特空機2号 ウインダム, Tokkūki Ni-gō Uindamu):[35][37] The second of STORAGE's mecha, presented as speedy and versatile.[35] Its weapons are Laser Shot (レーザーショット, Rēzā Shotto) from forehead, Fast-Rotating Rigid Core Iron Fist (高回転硬芯鉄拳, Kō Kaiten Kōshin Tekken) arms and Type-20 Anti-Monster Guided Missiles (20式対怪獣誘導弾, Nijū-shiki Tai Kaijū Yūdō-dan) fired from its porous rocket boosters.[35][4] Due to its lighter built, the robot is capable of operating for a longer period than Sevenger.[1] Unfortunately, Yuka discovered too late that its internal workings are different from her original plan, thus the charging period took longer than the intended process. Using a piece of Neronga's horn, she was able to speed up the process, allowing Windom to assist Z in against Telesdon/Erimaki Telesdon. After that, a new battery was made based on Neronga's horn. Although Windom went on to be piloted by Haruki once Yoko get to board King Joe SC, Juggler piloted it in the final battle against Destrudos in their operation to save Yoko.[38] First appeared in episode 1 of Ultraseven.[36]
SC-3 King Joe STORAGE Custom (特空機3号 キングジョー ストレイジカスタム, Tokkūki San-gō Kingu Jō Sutoreiji Kasutamu): STORAGE's own attempt at reverse-engineering Alien Barossa's King Joe robot after they salvaged its remains, designating the unit as a firepower type.[42] Through analysis on the Pedan technology, STORAGE was able to construct an engine with 5 times of Windom's original output.[38]
Robot Mode (ロボットモード, Robotto Mōdo): King Joe SC's default form, armed with Pedanium Particle Cannon (ペダニウム粒子砲, Pedaniumu Ryūshi-hō) on the right, Pedanium Hammer (ペダニウムハンマー, Pedaniumu Hanmā) on the left and Pedanium Guided Missiles (ペダニウム誘導弾, Pedaniumu Yūdō-dan) from its back.[43][4] In against a group of Kelbim, King Joe SC was fitted with the D4 Ray under Kuriyama (Celebro)'s order as a test run, effectively causing an entire city block to be devoured by a dimensional collapse until Z neutralizes it.[6] It was finally piloted by Haruki in STORAGE's final stand against Destrudos, using King Joe SC's Pedanium Hammer to burst through the monster to rescue Yoko from Celebro's possession.
Separate Mode (セパレートモード, Separēto Mōdo): King Joe SC's separative form into four vehicles; Head Fighter (ヘッドファイター, Heddo Faitā), Breast Tank (ブレストタンク, Buresuto Tanku), Core Ship (コアシップ, Koa Shippu) and Leg Carrier (レッグキャリアー, Reggu Kyariā). The Core Ship is the robot's main cockpit and through there, the other parts can also be controlled remotely.[4]
Tank Mode (タンクモード, Tanku Mōdo): An alternate configuration of King Joe SC's parts into a form resembling a tank.[4] In addition to retaining its armaments, King Joe SC can also use smoke grenades as a form of concealment.
GAFJ
Global Allied Forces Japan (地球防衛軍日本支部, Chikyū Bōei-gun Nihon Shibu, GAFJ) is the Japanese branch of the Global Allied Forces, an organization authorized to deal against monster attacks.[1]
At some point after Baraba's demise, GAFJ begins to experiment with remnants of the energy from Yapool's dimension through analysis of Baraba's sword, through which they harvested and weaponized into the Different Dimension Destruction Device D4 Ray (異次元壊滅兵器 D4レイ, Ijigen Kaimetsu Heiki Dī Fō Rei), as part of their warfare against monsters.[44][6][14] Due to STORAGE members protest after seeing its unethical use to destroy a group of Kelbim, Kuriyama (Celebro) had them disbanded and replaced with the 1st Special Airborne Armorer Group (第一特殊空挺機甲群, Dai Ichi Tokushu Kūtei Kikō-gun), abbreviated as SAAG (特機群, Tokki-gun), to manage the SAA units in against future monster attacks.[4][14] When STORAGE was reformed to reclaim their base, Juggler incapacitated every available SAAG officers after blocking their entrance.
Director Kuriyama
Saburō Kuriyama (クリヤマ サブロー, Kuriyama Saburō),[4] addressed as Director Kuriyama (クリヤマ長官, Kuriyama-chōkan)[lower-alpha 3] in the series, is the 64-year-old director of the GAFJ and founder of STORAGE. Despite his long, nagging lectures, he is actually a worrywart who is prone to stomach aches. He is often worrying of the collateral damages brought by the monster attacks and the cost for development budget.[45][46]
As detailed in the Life's Decision Height: The Story of STORAGE's Foundation prequel novel, Kuriyama conceived the idea of fighting monsters with robots since his early days as a deputy director. After voicing his aforementioned idea to his colleagues, then-GAFJ director Kimisaki introduced Kuriyama to Inaba as the two became fast friends and established GAFJ's robot department. When their project hit a dead end, Kuriyama discovered the opportunity to analyze the recently crashed Grigio Raiden as the basis of SAA units, eventually leading to the foundation of STORAGE as well.[4]
During GAFJ's experimentation on D4 Ray, Kuriyama was possessed by Celebro after a run-in with captain Asano, who proceed to use the director's position into authorizing the D4 Ray and the creation of Ultroid Zero.[4][14] Celebro would left Kuriyama's body for Yoko once his plan nears completion to hijack the Ultroid Zero.[21] He was hospitalized after the incident, but his injuries were scapegoated to STORAGE members per Celebro's plan.
Director Kuriyama is portrayed by Hisahiro Ogura (小倉 久寛, Ogura Hisahiro).[45][46][5]
Shinya Kaburagi
Shinya Kaburagi (カブラギ シンヤ, Kaburagi Shin'ya)[lower-alpha 3] is a 26-year-old researcher from GAFJ's Monster Research Center (怪獣研究センター, Kaijū Kenkyū Sentā)'s biochemical research department,[46][47][1] a group tasked with the cleanup and research of leftovers from the resulting fight between STORAGE and their monster opponents. While delivering a canister of Genegarg's remains, Celebro possessed him as a medium to operate on Earth.[19] Due to Kaburagi's body sustaining heavy injuries after months of possession, Celebro left him for Asano while pinning all of his crimes to Kaburagi to retain his cover.[4] After Destrudos' destruction, Kaburagi returned to work for MRC and assisted Yuka in catching Celebro when the alien parasite escaped its destruction to dissect its remains.[4]
Shinya Kaburagi is portrayed by Rihito Noda (野田 理人, Noda Rihito).[47][46][5]
Minor GAFJ officers
Asano (アサノ, 17, 21):[lower-alpha 6] The captain of GAFJ's police division, who issued an arrest warrant to "Kaburagi" after his numerous atrocities in the monster attacks, unaware that the youth was possessed by Celebro the entire time. Although he managed to pin Kaburagi, Asano was disarmed by Juggler and forcefully possessed by Celebro as a cover before moving on to Kuriyama.[4] He is portrayed by Yosuke Minokawa (三濃川 陽介, Minokawa Yōsuke).[48]
Mai Yuki (ユウキ マイ, Yūki Mai, 21-25): GAFJ's chief of operations, she is the head of the development project for Ultroid Zero,[49] as well as the captain of the newly formed SAAG following STORAGE's disbandment.[4] An arrogant war hawk, she is prideful in the development of D4 and its use as a weapon, regardless of casualties involved. When Kuriyama (Celebro) framed the former STORAGE members as aliens in the height of Ultroid Zero's hijacking and global-scale terrorism, she tries to counter the reformed STORAGE's munity with the order shoot to kill, but was incapacitated by Juggler. She is portrayed by Maya Hayashi (林 摩耶, Hayashi Maya).[50]
Kimisaki (キミサキ): The former GAFJ director who preceded Kuriyama prior to the series. In Life's Decision Height: The Story of STORAGE's Foundation, he introduced then-deputy director Kuriyama to Inaba after he voiced the opinion to use giant robots.
Special Airborne Armor Development and Test Unit (特殊空挺機甲開発実験団, Tokushu Kūtei Kikō Kaihatsu Jikken-dan): An organization which Kuriyama and Inaba established in year 2010 for the development of SAA Units, appearing exclusively in Life's Decision Height: The Story of STORAGE's Foundation. After the success of Sevenger in against Namegon and its subsequent missions, the test unit was disbanded and most of its members were reassigned to the Joint Advanced Equipment Research Center (統合先進装備研究所, Tōgō Senshin Sōbi Kenkyūjo), abbreviated as JAERC (統先研, Tōsenken), with STORAGE taking its place.
Shota Hebikura: The original Shota Hebikura, who participated in the test unit as their pilot. In August 2013, Hebikura was caught in an accident during the test piloting of a SAA unit that claimed his life. Jugglus Juggler, who had arrived on Earth since 2010, buried Hebikura's lifeless body elsewhere and taking the latter's place in the accident, while his different appearance was passed off as a case of reconstructive surgery in order to slip into the ranks of GAFJ, eventually promoted into STORAGE's captain during the premise of Ultraman Z.
Yasuko Kuroe (クロエ ヤスコ, Kuroe Yasuko): A test pilot from Osaka Prefecture who appeared exclusively in Life's Decision Height: The Story of STORAGE's Foundation. Alongside the original Hebikura, she became one of the many test pilots of the SAA prototype and was killed in a piloting accident.
Ultra Warriors
Ultraman Z
Ultraman Z (ウルトラマンゼット, Urutoraman Zetto)[lower-alpha 7] is the titular hero of the series, an Inter Galactic Defense Force cadet whose age is 5,000 years old. Z speaks in an unusual dialect, but overall has a passionate sense of justice and seeks apprenticeship under his idol, Zero.[37] His name was given to him by Ultraman Ace back in the Land of Light, intending the young warrior to fight to the very end of his life.[51] As revealed in the Voice Drama series, Z volunteered himself to be a tester for Hikari's Z Riser under Zero's suggestion. He was accepted into the Inter-Galactic Defense Force after he passed his test in a sparring match against Zero.
During the events of Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Absolute Conspiracy, Z accompanied Mebius and Taiga in the fight against the Zetton Army.[52] Although his inexperienced caused him to be outnumbered, Z was saved by the timely arrival of the Ultra League. After failing to save Yullian, Z decided to chase Genegarg for its theft of Ultra Medals. In the series proper, he was entrusted with the Z Riser and chased Genegarg to Earth, where he bonded with Haruki to revive the young pilot's life.[12][13][4] In addition to reclaiming the stolen Ultra Medals, Z assisted STORAGE in fighting against monster attacks and Celebro's constant machinations on Earth. After Celebro defeated Z with Destrudos, the Ultra was forced to separate from his host since another transformation would injure their bodies, but Haruki bypassed this restriction in order to save a falling Yoko from Destrudos' clutch. After defeating Destrudos on Earth, Z decided to embark on his mission to outer space, bringing along Haruki and the revived Beliarok.[15][16]
His Ultra Z Riser, the device which he gave to Haruki as means of transformation, can also double as a combat weapon.[4] His true form is designated as Original (オリジナル, Orijinaru) and is described as a rookie Ultra Warrior whose strength is either half or tierce of an experienced fighter.[12][13] His finishing move is Zestium Beam (ゼスティウム光線, Zesutiumu Kōsen), which can also be utilized by any of his other forms.[37][53][54] In his original form, Z can only sustain for 50 seconds on Earth and transforms only during emergency cases.[4] In the final battle against Destrudos, Z was reduced to Original after Beliarok's destruction, but his strong bonds with Haruki compensated what he lacked for, managing to fire a Zestium Beam that surpassed Destrudos' D4 Ray and putting an end to Celebro's machinations on Earth.
To make up for his lack of additional strength, Z can access Ultra Fusion (ウルトラフュージョン, Urutora Fyūjon) forms when Haruki scans three different Ultra Medals of past Ultra Warriors using the Z Riser.[53][4] These forms are capable of using a shared additional weapon named Z Lance Arrow (ゼットランスアロー, Zetto Ransu Arō), an ancient artifact from Alaska that was initially utilized by an ancient Ultra to seal Peguila.[1][4]
Alpha Edge (アルファエッジ, Arufa Ejji): A speed-based form obtained through Ultraseven, Leo and Zero's Ultra Medals. Z fights with the use of martial arts movements from master-apprentice chain components he is based on and is able to summon a pair of energy crests as makeshift nunchaku named as Alpha Chain Blade (アルファチェインブレード, Arufa Chein Burēdo).[17][18] His finishing move is the Zestium Meizer (ゼスティウムメーザー, Zesutiumu Mēzā).[53]
Beta Smash (ベータスマッシュ, Bēta Sumasshu): A strength-based form obtained through Ultraman, Ace and Taro's Ultra Medals. Z fights with a dignified style akin to a professional wrestler.[17][18] His finishing move is the Zestium Upper (ゼスティウムアッパー, Zesutiumu Appā).[54] Through sheer will, Z can transform his crest into a set of Ultra Holes (ウルトラホール, Urutora Hōru), resembling Ace's and combine their attack to perform Space Z (スペースZ, Supēsu Zetto).[4][51]
Gamma Future (ガンマフューチャー, Ganma Fyūchā): A sorcery-based form obtained through Tiga, Dyna and Gaia's Ultra Medals.[17][18] He is skilled in versatile beam attacks and tricky fighting styles.[17][18] The Medals required to access this form were originally salvaged by Juggler before he returned it to the Ultra at the height of Five King's attack. By accessing Gamma Illusion (ガンマイリュージョン, Ganma Iryūjon), he can summon the Ultras that make up his form to simultaneously fire their beam attacks. His finishing move is the Zestium Drive (ゼスティウムドライブ, Zesutiumu Doraibu).[54]
Sigma Breastar (シグマブレスター, Shiguma Buresutā): A form that is exclusive to Ultraman Fusion Fight: Z Heat, accessed through the use of Zoffy, Tiga and Mebius' Ultra Medals. It allows Z to freely manipulate heat and is able to exert both brute strength and super speed. His finishing move in this form is the Zestium Ray Burst (ゼスティウムレイバースト, Zesutiumu Rei Bāsuto).[55]
Delta Rise Claw (デルタライズクロー, Deruta Raizu Kurō): Z's strongest form, obtained from using Zero Beyond, Belial Atrocious and Geed's Rise Ultra Medals (ライズウルトラメダル, Raizu Urutora Medaru). This form allows Z to generate golden energy storms and is the only one capable of wielding the Beliarok.[56][57][58] His finishing move is the Zestium Slash (ゼスティウム光輪, Zesutiumu Kōrin).[4]
The Phantom World Sword Beliarok (幻界魔剣 ベリアロク, Genkai Maken Beriaroku) was originally a space needle required to defeat Greeza by sewing the anomaly itself. When Geed was briefly assimilated into the monster, part of his Belial DNA merged with the sword, giving it sentience and the abilities of Ultraman Belial. Despite being Z's personal weapon, his allegiance is fickle and is able to switch to other users so long that they satisfy his own interest. Although Juggler won the Beliarok fair and square, the weapon decided to stick to Haruki after having faith in the young boy's ability to satiate his interest. The Beliarok was initially killed in its attempt to block a D4 Ray beam from Destrudos, but revived itself and joined Z and Haruki's departure to space.
In addition to redirecting his opponent's attack, the Beliarok can execute three finishers by pressing the button behind his head. The attacks are Deathcium Slash (デスシウムスラッシュ, Desushiumu Surasshu), Deathcium Claw (デスシウムクロー, Desushiumu Kurō) and Deathcium Fang (デスシウムファング, Desushiumu Fangu).[4] Should anyone try to wield Beliarok without his consent, he can deliver a small lightning bolt or increase its own density to prevent from being misused.

Riku returned at some point of time when Greeza rampaged on Earth. While assimilated into the void monster, Geed managed to briefly halt its actions while his Belial DNA created the Beliarok, which Z in the Delta Rise Claw managed to obtain in slaying Greeza. As Hikari had fixed the Geed Riser, Riku decided to give Haruki his own Ultra Medals and resume his original mission.
By inserting his own personalized Ultra Access Card and a trio of Ginga, X and Orb Medals into the Ultra Z Riser, Riku can access a new form of Geed, Galaxy Rising (ギャラクシーライジング, Gyarakushī Raijingu).[17][18] The form is based on his default Fusion Rise, Primitve, focusing on a balanced fighting style but serve as an upgrade over the former. In the same way as Z, Geed can summon an enlarged Z Riser as a handheld weapon. His finishing move is the Wrecking Phoenix (レッキングフェニックス, Rekkingu Fenikkusu).[19][4] The three Medals were given to Haruki when Geed's original Riser was fixed, in addition to his own Ultraman Geed Medal (ウルトラマンジードメダル, Urutoraman Jīdo Medaru), which turns into the Ultraman Geed Rise Medal (ウルトラマンジードライズメダル, Urutoraman Jīdo Raizu Medaru) when Z assumes Delta Rise Claw.
In Ultraman Fusion Fight! Z Heat, Geed can assume a game-exclusive form, Tetraite Cross (テトライトクロス, Tetoraito Kurosu), through Jack, Cosmos and Nexus Medals. This form allows him to erect defensive barriers and performing counter style fighting moves. His finisher is the Giga Field Pressure (ギガフィールドプレッシャー, Giga Fīrudo Puresshā).[62]

After using Genegarg to steal a Z Riser and the Ultra Medals, Celebro possessed the GAFJ's Monster Research Center officer Shinya Kaburagi as means of operating on Earth and orchestrated monster attacks from behind the scenes for his twisted enjoyment.[47] After Metsuboros' death, Celebro was forced to take GAFJ police captain Asano as his new host when Kaburagi's body was rendered too injured to be used.[4] During GAFJ's hostile takeover of STORAGE, Celebro jumped into Kuriyama to use the director's authority to disband STORAGE and approving both the D4 experimentation and Ultroid Zero's creation.[21][4][14] With Juggler finally showing up to claim the Ultroid Zero, Celebro has the STORAGE members targeted under false pretenses for being aliens and jump into Yoko for possession to claim control of the Ultroid Zero, finally merging it with several Monster Medals and other Earth monsters into Destrudos.[21] After Yoko purged Celebro from her body, the alien was forced to parasitize Destrudos on its own and was defeated by the sheer bond between Haruki and Z.[15][16] Juggler halted the alien parasite's attempt in escape, where Yuka and Kaburagi captured him to be dissected for all the trouble he had caused on Earth.[4]

In the novel Ja no Michi wa Hebi, Sagittari was an orphan came from a war-torn planet wherein she was raised into a child soldier and eventually gets hired by the Interstellar Alliance. Despite performing various missions for the Alliance, she and her troops were left to die by the same team after an internal conflict, with the Alliance eventually erasing records of her existence to cover up their mistake. Seeking revenge on the Alliance, she climbed the Warrior's Peak on Planet O-50 to obtain the power to transform into the monster Grigio (グルジオ, Gurujio) and eventually collaborating with arms dealer Phalaris. With the seed of the Tree of Life obtained, Sagittari was trapped in the Grigio form when it was permanently transformed into Grigio Raiden, modified and brainwashed by Phalaris into a rampaging cyborg monster. Raiden was originally manipulated by Phalaris to fight against Biranki's Gango, but with her master's death, the monster went on a rampaging spree in the capital of Imbat Federation.

Celebro possessed Yoko and claim the robot for his own to absorb all Monster Medals and other monsters to transform into Annihilation Armor Monster Destrudos (殲滅機甲獣 デストルドス, Senmetsu Kikō-jū Desutorudosu).[21][4] In the fight against Ultraman Z, Destrudos defeated him with the D4 Ray and continues to attack major cities in the entire globe during Haruki's recuperation.

He recruits Belial into The Kingdom with the promise to avert his impending death.
