Ultraman Zearth is a parody of Ultraman. He hails from the Land of Pikari in Nebula Z95. He has a big red face and dislikes dirt, and will go to great lengths to wash it off his hands. His goal is to clean the polluted Earth. He transforms with an electric toothbrush, which is consistent with his hygiene fixation.

The movies include cameos by most of the original Science Patrol from ''[[Ultraman]]''. Arashi is a [[helicopter]] reporter (which is not too far from what he currently does in real life). In ''Ultraman Zearth'', Hayata is a night watchman (who holds his flashlight up like a Beta Capsule)<ref name="映画全集14">{{Harvnb|平成ウルトラ映画全集|2001|pp=14-15|loc=「CHARACTER」}}</ref> and in ''Ultraman Zearth 2'' he is a common citizen who tries to transform into Ultraman with a spoon (echoing Hayata's performance from episode 34){{efn|A tribute to the scene trying to transform with Beta Capsule and a mistake spoon in Episode 34 of Ultraman.}}, Fuji<ref name="映画全集14">{{Harvnb|平成ウルトラ映画全集|2001|pp=14-15|loc=「CHARACTER」}}</ref><ref name="映画全集96">{{Harvnb|平成ウルトラ映画全集|2001|pp=96-107}}</ref> (the only woman who ever catches the Mydo plane taking off from a secret base exit, which happens to be a billboard), Ide (as a photographer)<ref name="映画全集14">{{Harvnb|平成ウルトラ映画全集|2001|pp=14-15|loc=「CHARACTER」}}</ref>, and Captain Muramatsu, as a fisherman<ref name="映画全集14">{{Harvnb|平成ウルトラ映画全集|2001|pp=14-15|loc=「CHARACTER」}}</ref>.

And finally, in ''Ultraman Zearth 2'', we are treated to a rare cameo reappearance of [[Jiro Dan]], none other than Hideki Go from ''[[The Return of Ultraman]]'' as a telecast reporter on TV.

In ''Ultraman Zearth'', Hayata is a night watchman (who holds his flashlight up like a Beta Capsule) and in ''Ultraman Zearth 2'' he is a common citizen who tries to transform into Ultraman with a spoon (echoing Hayata's performance from episode 34), Fuji (the only woman who ever catches the Mydo plane taking off from a secret base exit, which happens to be a billboard), Ide (as a photographer), and Captain Muramatsu, as a fisherman. In ''Ultraman Zearth 2'', Ide shows up as the fisherman's son with a photograph of his dad (actor [[Akiji Kobayashi]], who played Captain Muramatsu, died between films).

The second movie features "Digital Kanegon", which is a take on the original Kanegon from ''[[Ultra Q]]''. It also features Kohji Moritsugu (Dan Moroboshi from ''[[Ultra Seven]]'') as Captain Ban Satsuma. The running joke is that he frequently lets slip that he knows that we in the audience know that he's Mr. Moritsugu/[[Ultraseven (character)|Dan Moroboshi/Ultraseven]]. He says "Natsukashii! (how nostalgic!)" when he sees Capsule Monster Miraclon. At the end of the movie, he also nudges Katsuto and tells him he'll have to teach him the heel drop sometime, which implies that Dan knows that Katsuto is really Zearth.

A large-scale organizational reformation was done between the first and second work. The Japanese branch camouflaged the Idemitsu Kosan gas station in the center of Tokyo, and the captains, deputy-captains,troops also work as managers, vice managers and shop clerks, hiding their identity. Naming is from Idemitsu's "MYDO Card".

;MYDO Mecha
Their mecha used to defend earth against the monsters and also support Ultraman Zearth.
*'''MYDO Headquarters''': From the idea that the existence of outright military organizations buy antipathy of citizens in this era in which international disputes on the earth virtually disappeared, the ground part camouflaged on gas stations and the majority of base functions were established. It consists of a tower-like underground part with a height of 100 m or more. Although it was the Asian headquarters in the first film, due to a organizational reformation, it became the Japanese branch in the second work, and the headquarters base function moved to a certain place in Asia. As stated earlier, since members are usually working as gas clerk staff, on the ground part there is a skyfish launch port camouflaged in the office and cumberish main office rooms and advertisement signs as well as the facilities as a stand in the basement part, there is a room with a bell-shaped supercomputer MIDORI that manages the entire base and collects and analyzes information, including a room with skyfish storage and members, a maintenance room, a weapons laboratory, a chemical room , Data room, medical room, game hall, large public bath and training room. In the 2nd work, a locker with a special function was installed in the operational room, which caused the men's clothes to be worn instantly and teleported to the cockpit of the ride by entering the 2nd, the underground hangar was also expanded, and the starting point of the Sky Shark was newly established. When leaving the Sky Shark, the entire base will rise to the ground. Although it have been disturbed by neighbors several times, they managed to get through.<ref name="超全集218">{{Harvnb|超全集2|1997|pp=18-19|loc=「超宇宙防衛機構Mydo」}}</ref>
*{{nihongo4|'''Sky Fish'''|スカイフィッシュ|Sukai Fisshu}}: The main fighter of MYDO. Started off from the gas station signboard. Although it is a multi-wing aircraft designed with yellow and light blue, due to the flashy color scheme, the first one was described as a "bad taste" in the reporter. In the 2nd film, Unit 2 of the same shape and different painting (red and silver color) appeared. From the 2nd work, they came to the cockpit by teleporting from the above locker. The main equipment is a Mydo laser cannon. Also equipped with firearms such as missiles. In the second work, they mounted a light wire for locking an enemy monster called a laser rope on the nose.<ref name="超全集218">{{Harvnb|超全集2|1997|pp=18-19|loc=「超宇宙防衛機構Mydo」}}</ref><ref name="UYB98">{{Harvnb|宇宙船YB|1998|pp=20-21|loc=「ウルトラマンゼアス2」}}</ref><ref name="映画全集14">{{Harvnb|平成ウルトラ映画全集|2001|pp=14-15|loc=「CHARACTER」}}</ref><ref name="FCTDG28">{{Harvnb|FCティガ/ダイナ/ガイア|2001|pp=28-29|loc=「劇場版ウルトラマンストーリーガイド」}}</ref><ref name="画報下">{{Harvnb|画報 下巻|2003|pp=70-74|loc=「ウルトラマンゼアス/ウルトラマンゼアス2超人大戦・光と影」}}</ref>
*{{nihongo4|'''Sky Shark'''|スカイシャーク|Sukai Shāku}}: MYDO's battle mother ship which appeared in the second work. Boasting advanced flight technology and fighting power, it can also work underwater, in space, in the ground, as well as ordinary aviation. It uses jet engines in the atmosphere and rocket engines in outer space. Although having a high fighting ability such as loading dozens of the latest weapons, in the play, only the Zetton light cannon which reproduced the ray used when Zetton beat the first Ultraman was used. Besides, it has a strategy conference room, a sleeping room, a game center, etc.. The Zetton beam gun is a very powerful weapon that reproduces Zetton's rays (wavy rays that destroyed the color timer) by intersecting a current of 60 million amperes and electromagnetism of 25 million gauss<ref name="超全集248">{{Harvnb|超全集2|1997|p=48|loc=「スカイシャーク&デジタルカネゴン解剖図解」}}</ref>. In defeating Ultraman Shadow, the original Ultraman was created to destroy the timer in the same way based on the fact that the color timer was destroyed by Zetton. If it was a clean hit it was a big deal, but it was rebounded without difficulty to the shadow who had anticipated attacks on color timers and crashed in reverse. Then it was destroyed with Shadow's Meriken missile.<ref name="超全集218">{{Harvnb|超全集2|1997|pp=18-19|loc=「超宇宙防衛機構Mydo」}}</ref><ref name="UYB98">{{Harvnb|宇宙船YB|1998|pp=20-21|loc=「ウルトラマンゼアス2」}}</ref><ref name="映画全集14">{{Harvnb|平成ウルトラ映画全集|2001|pp=14-15|loc=「CHARACTER」}}</ref><ref name="FCTDG28">{{Harvnb|FCティガ/ダイナ/ガイア|2001|pp=28-29|loc=「劇場版ウルトラマンストーリーガイド」}}</ref><ref name="画報下">{{Harvnb|画報 下巻|2003|pp=70-74|loc=「ウルトラマンゼアス/ウルトラマンゼアス2超人大戦・光と影」}}</ref><ref name="超全集250">{{Harvnb|超全集2|1997|pp=50-53|loc=「必見!!怪獣デザイン設定資料集」}}</ref>{{Sfn|円谷プロ図録|2013|p=63}}<ref name="超全集248">{{Harvnb|超全集2|1997|p=48|loc=「スカイシャーク&デジタルカネゴン解剖図解」}}</ref>

*'''MYDO Headquarters''': From the idea that the existence of outright military organizations buy antipathy of citizens in this era in which international disputes on the earth virtually disappeared, the ground part camouflaged on gas stations and the majority of base functions were established. It consists of a tower-like underground part with a height of 100 m or more. Although it was the Asian headquarters in the first film, due to a organizational reformation, it became the Japanese branch in the second work, and the headquarters base function moved to a certain place in Asia. As stated earlier, since members are usually working as gas clerk staff, on the ground part there is a skyfish launch port camouflaged in the office and cumberish main office rooms and advertisement signs as well as the facilities as a stand in the basement part, there is a room with a bell-shaped supercomputer MIDORI that manages the entire base and collects and analyzes information, including a room with skyfish storage and members, a maintenance room, a weapons laboratory, a chemical room , Data room, medical room, game hall, large public bath and training room. In the 2nd work, a locker with a special function was installed in the operational room, which caused the men's clothes to be worn instantly and teleported to the cockpit of the ride by entering the 2nd, the underground hangar was also expanded, and the starting point of the Sky Shark was newly established.

The main equipment is a Mydo laser cannon. Also equipped with firearms such as missiles. In the second work, they mounted a light wire for locking an enemy monster called a laser rope on the nose.

Boasting advanced flight technology and fighting power, it can also work underwater, in space, in the ground, as well as ordinary aviation. It uses jet engines in the atmosphere and rocket engines in outer space. Although having a high fighting ability such as loading dozens of the latest weapons, in the play, only the Zetton light cannon which reproduced the ray used when Zetton beat the first Ultraman was used. Besides, it has a strategy conference room, a sleeping room, a game center, etc.. The Zetton beam gun is a very powerful weapon that reproduces Zetton's rays (wavy rays that destroyed the color timer) by intersecting a current of 60 million amperes and electromagnetism of 25 million gauss. In defeating Ultraman Shadow, the original Ultraman was created to destroy the timer in the same way based on the fact that the color timer was destroyed by Zetton. If it was a clean hit it was a big deal, but it was rebounded without difficulty to the shadow who had anticipated attacks on color timers and crashed in reverse. Then it was destroyed with Shadow's Meriken missile.

Revision as of 10:34, 21 October 2019

Ultraman Zearth (ウルトラマンゼアス, Urutoraman Zeasu) is a fictional character from the Ultra Series of tokusatsu[1] and the name of a 1996 movie in the series.[2]

Premise

Ultraman Zearth is a parody of Ultraman. He hails from the Land of Pikari in Nebula Z95. He has a big red face and dislikes dirt, and will go to great lengths to wash it off his hands. His goal is to clean the polluted Earth. He transforms with an electric toothbrush, which is consistent with his hygiene fixation. He's not quite adept at being a superhero, but at least he tries his best.

His human form is Katsuto Asahi who also dislikes dirt like Zearth.

Appearances

Zearth's first movie, Ultraman Zearth, was released in 1996 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the original Ultraman, as part of the Ultraman Wonderful World (along with Revive! Ultraman and Ultraman Company). Zearth's movie appearances include Ultraman Zearth (March 9, 1996) and Ultraman Zearth 2: Superman Big Battle - Light and Shadow (ウルトラマンゼアス2 超人大戦 光と影, Urutoraman Zeasu Tsū Chōjin Taisen Hikari to Kage) (April 12, 1997). Ultraman Zearth 2 is paired with the first Ultra Nyan short.

Cameos by other characters

The movies include cameos by most of the original Science Patrol from Ultraman. Arashi is a helicopter reporter (which is not too far from what he currently does in real life). In Ultraman Zearth, Hayata is a night watchman (who holds his flashlight up like a Beta Capsule) and in Ultraman Zearth 2 he is a common citizen who tries to transform into Ultraman with a spoon (echoing Hayata's performance from episode 34), Fuji (the only woman who ever catches the Mydo plane taking off from a secret base exit, which happens to be a billboard), Ide (as a photographer), and Captain Muramatsu, as a fisherman. In Ultraman Zearth 2, Ide shows up as the fisherman's son with a photograph of his dad (actor Akiji Kobayashi, who played Captain Muramatsu, died between films). And finally, in Ultraman Zearth 2, we are treated to a rare cameo reappearance of Jiro Dan, none other than Hideki Go from The Return of Ultraman as a telecast reporter on TV.

The second movie features "Digital Kanegon", which is a take on the original Kanegon from Ultra Q. It also features Kohji Moritsugu (Dan Moroboshi from Ultra Seven) as Captain Ban Satsuma. The running joke is that he frequently lets slip that he knows that we in the audience know that he's Mr. Moritsugu/Dan Moroboshi/Ultraseven. He says "Natsukashii! (how nostalgic!)" when he sees Capsule Monster Miraclon. At the end of the movie, he also nudges Katsuto and tells him he'll have to teach him the heel drop sometime, which implies that Dan knows that Katsuto is really Zearth.

In the 2nd work, a locker with a special function was installed in the operational room, which caused the men's clothes to be worn instantly and teleported to the cockpit of the ride by entering the 2nd, the underground hangar was also expanded, and the starting point of the Sky Shark was newly established. When leaving the Sky Shark, the entire base will rise to the ground. Although it have been disturbed by neighbors several times, they managed to get through.
  • Sky Fish (スカイフィッシュ, Sukai Fisshu): The main fighter of Mydo. Started off from the gas station signboard. Although it is a multi-wing aircraft designed with yellow and light blue, due to the flashy color scheme, the first one was described as a "bad taste" in the reporter. In the 2nd film, Unit 2 of the same shape and different painting (red and silver color) appeared. From the 2nd work, they came to the cockpit by teleporting from the above locker. The main equipment is a Mydo laser cannon. Also equipped with firearms such as missiles. In the second work, they mounted a light wire for locking an enemy monster called a laser rope on the nose.
  • Sky Shark (スカイシャーク, Sukai Shāku): Mydo's battle mother ship which appeared in the second work. Boasting advanced flight technology and fighting power, it can also work underwater, in space, in the ground, as well as ordinary aviation. It uses jet engines in the atmosphere and rocket engines in outer space. Although having a high fighting ability such as loading dozens of the latest weapons, in the play, only the Zetton light cannon which reproduced the ray used when Zetton beat the first Ultraman was used. Besides, it has a strategy conference room, a sleeping room, a game center, etc.. The Zetton beam gun is a very powerful weapon that reproduces Zetton's rays (wavy rays that destroyed the color timer) by intersecting a current of 60 million amperes and electromagnetism of 25 million gauss. In defeating Ultraman Shadow, the original Ultraman was created to destroy the timer in the same way based on the fact that the color timer was destroyed by Zetton. If it was a clean hit it was a big deal, but it was rebounded without difficulty to the shadow who had anticipated attacks on color timers and crashed in reverse. Then it was destroyed with Shadow's Meriken missile.
  • Mydo suit: Red and silver men's clothing worn at the time of exit, manufactured by the MYDO Super Science Team. It is super lightweight, excellent at heat and cold resistance, waterproofing and windbreak performance, and has high defense power. Dedicated boots have seven tools for every task. When working at the base, they wear the uniform at the gas station staff.
  • Mydo Met: It is a special helmet custom made to wear at the exit, absorbing impact by 100% and not receiving bullet/flame damage.
  • Stylus Gun (スタイラスガン, Sutairasu Gan): A small super gun carried by all the members. Normally you can fire a laser beam and you can shoot several kinds of laser beams, heat rays, anesthetic bullets, 45 caliber simulated bullets etc. by button operation.
  • Drag & Drop (ドラッグアンドドロップ, Doraggu Ando Doroppu): Ultra high performance large beam gun similar to a shotgun, exclusively for Iwata. Cock your foregrip and charge energy. Blue destructive light bullets, yellow destructive lights, anesthetic lights can be shot and divided by button operation, and flame radiation is also possible. Because there is weight it cannot handle things other than Takemura. Assembly decomposition type, can be transported by attachment case.
