Ultra Series Headcanons

A place for headcanons about the Ultra Series... Or would that be head-specium-rays? Open to submissions, but keep them suitable for medium children.

Shin Hayata spends his free time making time recrational structers like ponds and stuff and helping stray animals I promise you Also he marrys pati

Sounds reasonable.

Yullian always tries to avoid fighting, preferring to negotiate and help people get along with each other. Ultraman Cosmos admires her for that reason. Yullian has managed to convince monsters to leave cities alone, convinced alien warlords to colonise an empty planet instead of invading one where people already live, and taught a tribe of Pigmons to make their own pink balloons.

If she absolutely must, Yullian can still fight. And she excels at it.

Id like to offer addition: what if yullian and 80 get along with each other because they both recognise and cherish the potential of goodness in aliens/humans. Yullian being the diplomatic princess who negotiates to avoid unnecessary conflicts, while 80 teaches and nurtures kids so they won’t stray off the good path. Same braincells

My Ultraman game is now live!

This is a labor of love for the last two years or so, making a game that replicates New Generation Ultraman as best I can. It's a tabletop RPG that lets you play as either a Giant Hero or a Kaiju, building your character with what powers you like best!

It's filled with little nods and easter eggs for fans of the series, but it also breaks down how those stories work so you can jump right in if you're not familiar.

You can pick it up here: https://rudojudo.itch.io/giant-of-light and I'd be delighted to answer any Asks you might have about it!

Proposals for Ultraman's Actual Name

Shin. It's unclear whether he'd prefer to go by "Ultraman Shin" or "Shin Ultraman", so people just call him Ultraman.

Michael. It's a nice name, and it would fit the nomenclature of his definitely-canonical wife Meg and their children Mel and Makun.

His name is just Man, which would make his full name "Ultraman Man".

Lipia, because it turns out Hideaki Anno Hideaki An-knows what he's talking about.

No-one actually knows Ultraman's name. Not even he knows his name. Rather than worrying about it, he just goes by Ultraman.

He was called Dan, but out of respect to Ultraseven he stopped using that name.

His first name is Ultra and his surname is Man.

His first name is Man and his surname is Ultra.

Manfred. After people started calling him "Ultraman Fred", he decided just Ultraman would be simpler.

It's something like Starlight, Silver, Brave, Ares, Shine or Aegis, a normal name on the Land of Light.

He changed his name to Ultraman, and it's really none of our business why or when.

Arashi is aware of his status as one of the Science Patrol's resident Funny Chaps™, but he doesn't mind. He keeps doing what he does best- fighting giant monsters with wild enthusiasm, generally- and life is good. He's also quite a good barbecue chef.

[ultraheadcanons]

Ide, by contrast, takes his job seriously and is always trying to be the best patrolman he can. He's used to things going wrong for him in the most hilarious manner possible, but he still wishes, even just once, to pull off some daring plan perfectly.

That last post was meant for my main blog, but I do stand by it.

[mlmanakin]

it’s been said before and it will be said again but i’m begging you all nicely to restrain yourselves from being so casually aggressive and rude and obnoxious in the tags & reblogs of a complete stranger’s posts. no one wants to know that you hate [tv show that op giffed]. no one wants to know that you hate [character that op drew]. no one wants to hear you being ugly and negative for no reason. say what you want to say in your own post. don’t hit the reblog button. blacklist relevant tags. unfollow or block relevant accounts. log out. shut down. get help.

Our treatment of female heroes is like just really embarrassingly bad but somehow our single non-binary rep just gets to be really fucking cool and have an interesting character arc

What name you think new generation gaia will have?

[aardvark-123]

Glimmer. Getter. Gamma. Gyro. Gender. Glenda. Guido. Geezer. Guideline. Gertrude. Gandhi. Gingko. George.

One of them, perhaps?

Despite having a sword as one of his attacks, Mebius didn't know how to use it at first. He didn't even know he had a sword attack. During his time on Earth, he took sword fighting lessons to better his abilities. He went a bit overboard and now knows how to wield multiple types of swords.

[cina-full-moon-xanadium]

don’t even know what to say about this

[cina-full-moon-xanadium]

this is how Team EYES talks about Musashi and his annoying man rival

[ultraheadcanons]

Women in the Land of Light can be anything. Communications officers, scientists, warrior-princesses who get kidnapped, scrappy girls who are adorably bad at fighting and have to beg to be taken seriously… One of them’s even Surgeon-General!

Maybe the next Ultrawoman will be a teacher, a bossy older sister, or an allegedly mighty warrior who keeps getting shown up by a less experienced man. Or genuinely, unironically strong and powerful, but also a villain. The sky’s the limit! :D

[ultraheadcanons]

I might have been too harsh. Tsuburaya Productions are trying, with Carmeara, Queen Izana, Grigio and the many human women, all of which I appreciate. At times, though, it feels like they’re throwing us crumbs of female representation when the series has been a veritable banquet of male representation since 1966, and that is somewhat vexing.
