Ultraman: The Hero from Nebula M78
Who he is
Ultraman is a giant hero from Nebula M78, the Land of Light. In the first episode of the 1966 series he is pursuing the space monster Bemular when he accidentally collides with SSSP member Shin Hayata, killing him. To make amends, Ultraman merges with Hayata and gives him the Beta Capsule, which Hayata uses to become Ultraman whenever the Earth needs him.
His role in the series
Across 39 episodes Ultraman fights monsters and alien invaders alongside the Science Special Search Party. In the finale he is defeated by Zetton, and his superior Zoffy arrives to take him home; Ultraman asks that Hayata be allowed to live, and the two are separated.
Cast and voice
Susumu Kurobe played Shin Hayata, and Bin Furuya performed Ultraman in the suit. Ultraman's shouts, including his famous “Shuwatch”, were provided by Masao Nakasone. In the English dub, Hayata and Ultraman were voiced by Earl Hammond.
