Musashi Haruno

Musashi Haruno (春野 ムサシ, Haruno Musashi) is the main viewpoint character in the series and is Ultraman Cosmos' human host. Before his mother remarried, his actual name was Musashi Isohata (五十畑 ムサシ, Isohata Musashi).

Having lost his astronaut father Hiroyasu Isohata (五十畑 浩康, Isohata Hiroyasu) to a rocket accident in 1993, the 11 year old Musashi dreams of becoming an astronaut in honoring his late father. One night, while observing the stars, Musashi encountered the weakened Cosmos and reflect the sunlight to his forehead, therefore recharging the giant. His encounter with Cosmos was dismissed by others, especially during Basical's invasion on Earth until he was reassured by Mari and the Baltan child Shirubyi, allowing him to call upon Cosmos once more.^[1]

Eight years later, the 19-year-old Musashi becomes a pilot candidate of the SRC Universal Development Center. After the Chaos Header started their invasion by possessing his monster companion Lidorias, Musashi merged with Cosmos and since then joined Team EYES in order to secure monsters and fight against Chaos and other extraterrestrial invaders. Despite his optimistic approach, his reliance on Cosmos also turned into a hindrance that almost get them killed until the Ultra was upgraded into Eclipse Mode.^[2][3] Starting from the second half, Musashi and Team EYES became a frequent target of Chaos Header, the entity being well aware of his double life. In the final episode, realizing that Chaos is simply misguided in his actions, Musashi's will to purify it resulted with Chaos Header transformed into an angelic form and departed from Earth. His actions caused him to be acknowledged as a true hero by Cosmos as they parted ways.

In 2012, Musashi had long retired from Team EYES and is pursuing in his dream to become an astronaut. In the event of Scorpus' attack on Earth, Musashi joined Team SEA as they establish contact with the Alien Gyashi and bonded with Cosmos to stop Sandloss with the help of Justice.^[4] Three years later, Musashi finally became an astronaut for the Cosmo Noa (コスモ・ノア, Kosumo Noa) an attempt to bring Earth monsters away to a different planet. After being betrayed by Justice, both Cosmos and Musashi were trapped in a different space time as Ayano mobilized his colleague and had their Future Energy (フューチャーエナジー, Fyūchā Enajī) restore him back. Bearing no ill intent, he healed Justice as they fought Gloker Bishop and Giga Endra.^[5] With the fight ended, Musashi settled his life on the terraformed Planet Juran to watch over the migrated Earth monsters and married Ayano, having a son named Sora.

Despite his pacifism, Musashi is also skilled in armed combat and a formidable pilot. The pyroxene stone given to him by Cosmos was meant to summon the Ultra by his own will and can simultaneously recharge his energy with Musashi's own bravery. Once both Ultra and human merged, the pyroxene transformed into the Cosmo Pluck (コスモプラック, Kosumo Purakku), which allows Musashi to become Cosmos. In their separated state, the pyroxene stone allows Musashi to become an orb of light which merged with the Ultra's Color Timer.^[6]

Ultramen

Ultraman Cosmos

Ultraman Cosmos (ウルトラマンコスモス, Urutoraman Kosumosu) is the titular hero of the series, originally the protector of an unnamed planet which was ravaged by Chaos Header.^[11] Feeling guilty for his perceived failure, he swore not to let another planet fall into Chaos Header's grasps. At some point of time, Cosmos chased the Alien Baltan Basical to prevent him from invading Earth. Their conflict lead to an encounter with the young Musashi, who gives him the Pyroxene stone. When Chaos Header started his attack on Earth, Cosmos bonded with the now-teen Musashi and had since assisted Team EYES in defending benevolent monsters and fending off against invaders from outer space. With Chaos Header building an antibody to counter Cosmos' exorcism, the Ultra in turn gain access to Eclipse Mode, which resulted from his sheer bond with Musashi.^[2][3] In the final battle, despite everyone including Cosmos' insistence to eliminate Chaos, Musashi's kind spirit empowers Cosmos' Luna Mode and purified the Chaos Header into a benevolent entity. This action leads to Cosmos separating from the boy, marking the end of his mission on Earth. However, future events such as Sandloss' invasion and threats from the Universal Justice leads to Cosmos bonding with Musashi again, in the end leading to both of them working as protectors of the terraformed Planet Juran.

As the warrior of kindness, Cosmos rarely kills his opponents and utilizes speed and self defense in combat. In the 2018 Ultraman Gaia novel, Cosmos is stated by Charija to empower himself with both energies from the Moon and Sun. His Mode Changes (モードチェンジ, Mōdo Chenji) include:^[11]

• Luna Mode (ルナモード, Runa Mōdo):^[12] Cosmos' basic form, which emphasizes the Moon. Being a non-combat form, most of his attacks solely focus on self-defense and speedy tactics, emphasizing on Tai Chi. His techniques are Full Moon Rect (フルムーンレクト, Furu Mūn Rekuto) to pacify monsters and Luna Extract (ルナエキストラクト, Runa Ekisutorakuto) to exorcise Chaos Header.^[13] In Ultraman Saga, Luna Mode gains the offensive beams Moonlight Smash (ムーンライトスマッシュ, Mūnraito Sumasshu) and Full Moon Flasher (フルムーンフラッシャー, Furu Mūn Furasshā).^[14] With the Chaos Header developed immunity, the Luna Extract was phased out in favor of Eclipse Mode. His mask is designed after the original Ultraman.^[11]
  • Miracluna Mode (ミラクルナモード, Mirakuruna Mōdo): Cosmos' strongest form, which appeared in the final episode. It is displayed as the power-up version of Luna Mode, first accompanied by glittering lights before it faded to reveal said form. In response to Musashi's will to pacify Chaos Darkness, this form utilizes Luna Final (ルナファイナル, Runa Fainaru) with the growls of Lidorias, Mogrudon and Bolgils to purify the fiend into Chaos Header 0.^[15]
• Corona Mode (コロナモード, Korona Mōdo):^[16][13] Cosmos' combat form, based on the stellar corona. It appears as the predominant red color spiraling around his Color Timer while retaining the minority blue. While retaining his speed, Cosmos can exert brute strength. His finishing moves are Naybuster Ray (ネイバスター光線, Neibasutā Kōsen) and Blazing Wave (ブレージングウエーブ, Burējingu Uēbu).^[13] Likewise with Luna Mode, this form has Corona Extract (コロナエキストラクト, Korona Ekisutorakuto) to exorcise Chaos Header, until it was phased out in favor of Eclipse Mode. Because of the aforementioned form, Corona rarely appears after that and mostly serves as a transition into Eclipse.^[16]
• Eclipse Mode (エクリプスモード, Ekuripusu Mōdo): A new form resulted from the solar eclipse and Musashi's own courage. First appeared in episode 30, it was used to combat Chaos Header's growing strength and his resistance to Luna Mode's Luna Extract.^[3] In contrast to Corona Mode, Eclipse's body color is symmetrical and his Color Timer is colored gold. Since this form is resulted from Musashi's bonds, Cosmos is incapable of accessing it independently but their time limit is reduced to a minute.^[11][17] Eclipse Mode's finishing move is Cosmium Ray (コズミューム光線, Kozumyūmu Kōsen), which both exorcise and destroy Chaos Headers without harming their host or unneeded targets.^[13][17] This also worked to destroy other targets that Cosmos require to destroy, such as Alien Kyulia and Vadata's toxin, Neldrant Mechalator's cybernetics and even Etelgar's influence placed onto Arena. In one instance, he can also alter the tissue of an organism, which earns the interest of Chaos himself. Eclipse Mode's mask emphasizes the fusion of Luna and Corona Mode.^[11]
• Space Corona Mode (スペースコロナモード, Supēsu Korona Mōdo):^[11] A variation of Corona Mode, which is meant for space exploration and combat. In contrast to its land counterpart, it is colored in symmetrical purple and has a faster flight speed. His finishing move is Overloop Ray (オーバーループ光線, Ōbārūpu Kōsen).^[18][13]
• Skeleton Corona Mode (スケルトンコロナモード, Sukeruton Korona Mōdo): Alternatively named as Phantom Cosmos (ファントムコスモス, Fantomu Kosumosu), this form is an imaginary version of Corona Mode that appeared in Musashi's dream.^[11][19] At the height of Scorpus' invasion on Earth, this form appeared before Musashi finally snaps out from his dependence on the Ultraman. Aside from Skeleton Punch (スケルトンパンチ, Sukeruton Panchi) and Skeleton Kick (スケルトンスピンキック, Sukeruton Kikku), it retained the use of Blazing Wave.^[20][13]
• Future Mode (フューチャーモード, Fyūchā Mōdo): The strongest form of Ultraman Cosmos, which combines the aspect of Luna Mode's "kindness", Corona Mode's "strength" and Eclipse Mode's "courage" while empowered by the Future Energy.^[21] His sole finishing move is Cosmo Strike (コスモストライク, Kosumo Sutoraiku).^[21] In the similar vein as Justice, Cosmos can donate a portion of his energy to replenish an Ultra's Color Timer^[22] and the two can perform combination attacks Cross Perfection (クロスパーフェクション, Kurosu Pāfekushon) and Double Rolling Attack (ダブルローリングアタック, Daburu Rōringu Atakku).^[23]

Ultraman Cosmos is voiced by Hiroyuki Sato (佐藤 浩之, Satō Hiroyuki),^[6][24] while his grunts in The First Contact is provided by Hisanori Koyatsu (小谷津 央典, Koyatsu Hisanori) and Tetsu Inada (稲田 徹, Inada Tetsu) in later two movies.^[25] His Luna, Corona and Future Modes are designed by Hiroshi Maruyama, while Eclipse and Space Corona are designed by Chisato Sugiura.^[11]

Ultraman Justice

Ultraman Justice (ウルトラマンジャスティス, Urutoraman Jasutisu) is a representative from the Universal Justice who overseer threats that are prophesied by Delacion. First appearing in The Blue Planet, he becomes the major protagonist of The Final Battle.^[26]

2,000 years prior, Justice mistakenly defended Sandloss under the initial belief that he was harmless, but the being turned into a universal threat which led the Ultra to cooperate with Cosmos on Earth to defeat him. This caused him to develop a sense of guilt and eventually becomes cynical. Assuming the form of a young lady named Julie (ジュリ, Juri), Justice defeated Cosmos and observed the progresses made by Glokers to destroy opposing forces. Witnessing the bravery of the Earth monsters and a particular young girl saving her dog, this gave Justice a change of heart as he fights against the Glokers, while making amends with Cosmos to stop the Giga Endra from ending all life on Earth. In aftermath of the battle, Julie witnessed Musashi's reunion with his friends as she smiled for the first time.

Justice transforms from his human through the use of Justlancer (ジャストランサー, Jasutoransā), a badge kept at the left side of Julie's dress when not in use. In contrast to Cosmos, Justice's main coloration is red and utilizes brute strength and aggression during combat. His forms include:

• Standard Mode (スタンダードモード, Sutandādo Mōdo): Ultraman Justice's default form. Aside from the focus of beam attacks, he can also utilize Justice Ability (ジャスティスアビリティ, Jasutisu Abiriti) to replenish Cosmos' energy and his finisher is Victorium Ray (ビクトリューム光線, Bikutoryūmu Kōsen).
• Crusher Mode (クラッシャーモード, Kurasshā Mōdo): Justice's enhanced form, which appeared in The Final Battle. It was accessed after he regains his faith on humanity and understanding the true meaning of the concept for "justice". At the cost of Standard Mode's silver protector, Justice gains a gold colored version which simplified to his chest area and can perform various combination attack with Cosmos Future Mode, such as Cross Perfection and Double Rolling Attack. His main finishing move is Dagrium Ray (ダグリューム光線, Daguryūmu Kōsen). In Ultraman Fighting Evolution 3, Crusher Mode retains the use of Standard Mode's Justice Ability.

Ultraman Justice is voiced by Osamu Ryutani (龍谷 修武, Ryūtani Osamu), while Julie is portrayed by Kazue Fukiishi (吹石 一恵, Fukiishi Kazue).^[27][5][28] Despite being a male Ultra, his feminine human form is used to emphasize that the concept of "justice" doesn't swing to either gender.^[29] Before that, he was meant to have a biseinen human form until it was scrapped to a young lady in order to emphasize as a foil to Musashi.^[26] Justice was meant to have an original video of his own, until it was scrapped.^[30] Additionally, an old magazine in the past stated that he was supposedly the contender for Cosmos' position as the show's main hero,^[31] but writer Hideyuki Kawakami deny this accusation in his blog.^[30]

Ultraman Legend

Ultraman Legend (ウルトラマンレジェンド, Urutoraman Rejendo) is the purple-colored Ultra resulted from the fusion of Cosmos and Justice, appeared in the climax of The Final Battle. Said to be the strongest warrior by Alien Gyashi, Legend possess a vast of unparalleled power which he used to save humanity from destruction by Giga Endra.^[32] Its main ability is Auroral Power (オーロラルパワー, Ōroraru Pawā) by absorbing the opponent's energy attack and his strongest finisher is Spark Legend (スパークレジェンド, Supāku Rejendo).^[33]

Ultraman Legend is voiced by Tetsu Inada.

Antagonists

Alien Baltan Basical Version

Space Ninja Alien Baltan "Basical Version" (宇宙忍者 バルタン星人 ベーシカルバージョン, Uchū Ninja Barutan Seijin Bēshikaru Bājon) is the sole surviving member of the adult Alien Baltans when they lost their planet to a civil war sometime prior.^{[34][35][36][37]} Having perceived humanity's message to outer space from 50 years prior, Basical try to claim the Planet Earth in order for the Child Baltan in his care to survive but faced with the resistance of Ultraman Cosmos as they fought on Earth's stratosphere before crash landing on Japan. By possessing Donron, Basical forced the sacred beast on a rampage before he revealed himself. The next day, SRC try to pacify him through a lullaby but Sharks' attacks caused him to resort for aggressive solution and ignoring any negotiations with humanity. With Ultraman Cosmos summoned, Basical fought him in both the Haitsuki and on Earth. As Basical assumed the form of Space Ninja Neo Baltan (宇宙忍者 ネオバルタン, Uchū Ninja Neo Barutan), Cosmos assumed Corona Mode and their battle ended with Basical on the receiving end of Blazing Wave.^[34] Ceasing his fight with Cosmos, Basical committed suicide while his corpse was purified to its original form and escorted by the Child Baltan to their moon.

Basical's original form is capable of flying with a pair of wings, possessing monsters and shooting Dry Claw Ray (ドライクロー光線, Dorai Kurō Kōsen) from his pincers. He has a natural ability to manipulate the ground of Planet Baltan, which he did so to extract a chunk of it and turn into the mobile spaceship Haitsuki (廃月), as well as manipulating the ground into razor blades Claw Trap (クロートラップ, Kurō Torappu).^[35] As a giant, the Baltan can molt his skin as a protection or evolving into the Neo Baltan, he traded his pincers for the Bad Knife (バッドナイフ, Baddo Naifu) on his right and the Bundle Cord (バンドルコード, Bandoru Kōdo) whip on his left.^[35][37] He can also split into numerous clones, teleportation, firing Bump Spray (バンプスプレー, Banpu Supurē)^[35] from his shoulder armor and turn both of the weapons on his hands into twin hooks.

He was voiced by Daisuke Gōri (郷里 大輔, Gōri Daisuke) and Yukitoshi Hori (堀 之紀, Hori Yukitoshi). The Alien Baltan's inclusion to The First Contact is due to the movie's director Toshihiro Iijima is known for directing episodes 2 and 16 of Ultraman, both featuring the Baltan themselves.

Chaos Header

The Light Virus Chaos Header (光のウイルス カオスヘッダー, Hikari no Uirusu Kaosu Heddā) are the main antagonist of Ultraman Cosmos.^[38][39][40] It was never named in-series and was given such term by Doigaki as a contrasting element to Cosmos. Starting from episode 26, the entity adopted said term as their name, with Cosmos referring to this as such.

A collective hive mind of artificial energy organisms, their true purpose is to preserve the balance of outer space but fell into the conclusion of achieving it through sheer force alone. Prior to The First Contact, Chaos Header managed to turn the ecosystem of a planet Cosmos was guarding, which made it inhabitable to its population. On Earth, the Chaos Header manifest themselves either as a collective light particles, possession of monsters or cloning them. By the time it became interested with learning human emotions, the Chaos Header managed to create independent forms of their own.^[41][42] In the second half of the series, the Chaos Header becomes aware of Musashi's link to Cosmos and kidnapped him at one point after creating the Chaos Ultraman. As Ultraman Cosmos and Team EYES managed to strengthen their forces, the Chaos Header did the same to itself and grew stronger within every anti-Chaos Header weaponry threw upon itself. In the final episodes of the series, the Chaos Header's intense hatred for Cosmos lead to the birth of Chaos Darkness and goes on an all out attack against Team EYES. Once Musashi/Cosmos and three other monsters purify the Chaos Header, they realized the error of their ways and left Earth on peaceful terms. As of Ultraman Saga, the Chaos Header becomes the protector of Planet Juran and watching over the migrated monsters from Earth.

Since the Chaos Headers are a collective form of light energy operating under a singular hive mind, only a fraction of them appearing on Earth as several few would remain in Point P87 on the wormhole of outer space. Their main ability is to infect or cloning other monsters, which they refer to as the first step in achieving peace through a singular mind. Exposed victims, designated as Chaos Monsters (カオス怪獣, Kaosu Kaijū), sported red eyes and reddish protrusions from their bodies as they usually went berserk before fully giving cooperation to the entity. This ability is rendered ineffective the second time it affect a victim since by that point, their body had develop a specific antibody to combat Chaos' influence. As of episode 26, they gained the ability to create Materialized Chaos Header (実体カオスヘッダー, Jittai Kaosu Heddā), as independent corporeal forms to fight against Cosmos on their own.^[43][41][42] With the sole exception of Evelease, they still retain the ability to possess other monsters to force them fight by their side in against Cosmos and Team EYES.

• Chaos Header-Evelease (カオスヘッダー・イブリース, Kaosu Heddā Iburīsu, 26):^[44][38] The first materialized form, created when they gain interest in experimenting human emotions and after exiting the body of a possessed salaried worker. This form emphasizes on the human emotion for and made use of various telekinetic abilities upon scanning Cosmos' Corona Mode. When Evelease became stunned from witnessing human compassion, Cosmos took this chance to destroy him with Naybuster Ray.
• Chaos Header-Mebut (カオスヘッダー・メビュート, Kaosu Heddā Mebyūto, 29):^[44][38] The Chaos Header's second form, which obtained by posing as the infected Chaos Eligal and tricking Cosmos into draining his energies, before defeating said Ultra.^[2] While trying to kill a defenseless Cosmos, Mebut attempted to infect Lidorias but failed due to its recently acquired antibody. With Cosmos assuming Eclipse Mode, it managed to defeat Mebut through the use of Cosmium Ray, which safely penetrated Lidorias after it was used as a forced meat shield.^[3]
  • Imit-Chaos Eligal (偽カオスエリガル, Nise Kaosu Erigaru, 29): An impostor Chaos Eligal assumed by Chaos Header Mebut. His purpose is to fool Cosmos into draining his energy supply before revealing himself.^[45][2]
• Chaos Ultraman (カオスウルトラマン, Kaosu Urutoraman, 39, 40, 59):^[44][38] A black and blue-colored evil copy of Ultraman Cosmos Corona Mode, obtained by scanning Ultraman Cosmos when Musashi was lured out of the Treasure Base.^[46] Once defeating Ultraman Cosmos Corona Mode, he infected the Neldrant II and proceed to do the same to the monsters in Kaburaya Island until his Color Timer blinked. The Chaos Header was defeated by Cosmos Eclipse Mode as the Neldrant II was purified. In episode 59, it attempted to attack Doigaki and Hazumi to stop them from researching on the Chaos Chimera. When Cosmos defeated it with Cosmium Ray, the Chaos Header empowered the dark Ultra into Chaos Ultraman Calamity. Being a copy of Corona Mode, the Chaos Ultraman copied its moves and its finisher attacks, among them being Elimination Ray Darking Shot (破滅光線ダーキングショット, Hametsu Kōsen Dākingu Shotto) and Erosion Wave Invading Wave (浸蝕波動インベーディングウェーブ, Shinshoku Hadō Inbēdingu Wēbu). Through Giant Chaos Bullet Darkness Wheel (巨大カオス光弾ダークネスウィール, Kyodai Kaosu Kōdan Dākunesu Wīru), he can infect a total of 50 monsters at once into Chaos Monsters. Unfortunately being a copy of Ultraman Cosmos, Chaos Ultraman can only stay materialized for 3 minutes before dissipating into Chaos Header. In episode 59, he gains the additional ability to shoot Energy Light Bullet Dark Bullet (エネルギー光弾ダークブレット, Enerugī Kōdan Dāku Buretto) from his fist.
  • Chaos Ultraman Calamity (カオスウルトラマンカラミティ, Kaosu Urutoraman Karamiti, 59, 60, 62, 64):^[44][38] Chaos Ultraman's upgraded form, sporting red and black coloration in addition to being a knockoff of Ultraman Cosmos Eclipse Mode. Because of its tremendous strength, Calamity proves himself superior to its original counterpart and can only be defeated with the additional help from Chaos Chimera. After its second defeat, all traces of Chaos Headers on Earth were removed, leaving those in the P87 Point of space as its remnants. Cosmos baited the evil Ultra to the Moon, using Soaag minerals to weaken him until all Chaos Headers combine into Chaos Darkness. Being a copy of Eclipse Mode, his attacks were Breaking Smash (ブレイキングスマッシュ, Bureikingu Sumasshu) and Calamium Shot (カラミュームショット, Karamyūmu Shotto).
• Chaos Darkness (カオスダークネス, Kaosu Dākunesu, 64, 65):^[44][38] The Chaos Header's strongest form, which was created by fusing all of their essence and empowered through their common hatred for Cosmos. After receiving the Chaos Chimera pods from Tecch Booster, the monster seemingly vanished from the moon, but returned to Earth in this state. Acquiring immunity from all forms of anti-Chaos Header weapons, he fought against Cosmos and the humanity in a final battle before the Miracluna Mode and the help of Lidorias, Mogrudon and Bolgils managed to purify him. As its strongest form, the Chaos Darkness' abilities are Destruction Ray Crimson Break (破壊光線クリムゾンブレーク, Hakai Kōsen Kurimuzon Burēku) and Destructive Demon Sphere Dark Destroyer (破滅魔球ダークデストロイヤー, Hametsu Makyū Dāku Desutoroiyā).
  • Neo Chaos Darkness (ネオカオスダークネス, Neo Kaosu Dākunesu): In Ultraman Fighting Evolution Rebirth, the purified Chaos Header was brainwashed by Alien Mefilas to serve his malicious schemes, using its own essence to infect Waroga and Kyrieloid, even creating the trio Chaosroids. Chaos Darkness evolved into an enhanced form to engage in a fight against Ultramen Tiga, Gaia and Agul. When Cosmos came to their aid, Alien Mefilas merged with the Neo Chaos Darkness as his face appeared from his chest. Cosmos attempted to purify him, but Mefilas' influence was too strong, so much so that it evolved into Neo Chaos Darkness II. Aside from its old attacks, Neo Chaos Darkness can exhale Neo Chaos Destroyer (ネオカオスデストロイヤー, Neo Kaosu Desutoroiyā) from its mouth.
  • Neo Chaos Darkness II (ネオカオスダークネスII, Neo Kaosu Dākunesu Tsū): Its final form, the merging with Mefilas reached its highest point that the alien's face integrated with its chest. Chaos Darkness' skin turned black and replaced its lower torso with black aura which infect/combined with the entire city into a Chaos City (カオスシティ, Kaosu Shiti). Aside from its original attacks, Chaos Darkness can trap its opponent into a dimension of darkness to its advantage. It was defeated by Cosmos Miracluna Mode through the help of the trio Showa and Heisei Ultras.
• Chaos Header 0 (カオスヘッダー0, Kaosu Heddā Zero, 65, Saga):^[44][38] The purified form of Chaos Header, resulted from the very efforts of Cosmos, Lidorias, Mogrudon and Bolgils. It appeared as a golden angelic being and finally agreed in leaving the Earth in peaceful terms.
• Chaosroids (カオスロイド, Kaosuroido): A trio of evil Ultra Warriors, created through analyzing the combat tactics of Ultraman, Seven and Taro. The three was sent to attack the Land of Light and fought against their original counterparts. While originally appearing in Ultraman Fighting Evolution Rebirth video game, their suits made physical appearances in 2007 Ultraman Stadium, 2013 Ultraman Festival and finally a movie appearance in Ultraman Ginga Theater Special: Ultra Monster Hero Battle Royal!.
  • U: Created based on Ultraman, he was sent to steal the Plasma Spark and was defeated by his template, whose empowered by said device at the last minute.

He is capable of using the Chaoslugger (カオスラッガー, Kaosuraggā) on his head and Emerium Copy (エメリウム・コピー, Emeriumu Kopī). In the second Ginga Theater Special movie, he displays the ability to use Wide Shot Copy (ワイドショット・コピー, Waido Shotto Kopī).

The Chaos Header and Chaos Ultraman are voiced by Koji Haramaki (服巻 浩司, Haramaki Koji).^[47] Its main appearance is expressed in CGI and is said to be the hardest part for the production crew.^[48] The plot of Chaos Headers infecting monsters into Chaos Monsters is made by partially modifying their suits. This was devised by main writer Ōnishi, who expressed that this opinion wasn't received well by the production team since it was no different than creating two suits altogether.^[49]

Alien Noir

Monster Hunter Alien Noir (怪獣狩人 ノワール星人, Kaijū Kariudo Nowāru Seijin, 43, 53) are a race of green aliens from J34 Star System with advanced science and technology. Their multiple experimentation of cybernetic conversions caused their planet to be depleted from monsters and went to Earth to continue their attempts. Although debuted in episode 43, they were revealed to have been on Earth as early as episode 8, using Inculas to induce humans into their dreamland for obtaining information on their race before using Ragstone to analyze human desires.

Because of Musashi's ability to pacify monsters, one lone member try to capture him before the youth was rescued by Fubuki, who kills the alien by firing his reflection. In episode 53, the Alien Noir desired for the baby Arados' time manipulation and demanded the monster from Team EYES under the promise to restore it to full health with their advanced science. They sent their Ragstone Mechalator after Team EYES objected the offer and participated in their saucer to stun Cosmos. With Ragstone banished to an alternate dimension, Cosmos opened fire on their saucers and kill the Noir aliens on board.

By themselves, the aliens can assume human forms, casting illusions, teleportation, dream invasion and firing energy beams. Monsters remodeled into their cyborg states are called as Mechalator (メカレーター, Mekarētā) units.

• Fantasy Monster Inculas (夢幻魔獣 インキュラス, Mugen Majū Inkyurasu, 8): A sheep/goat based monster whose named after the demon incubus. As revealed by a lone Alien Noir, Inculas' true purpose is to analyze the humans once sending them to their dreamland. Alarmed by Musashi's presence in their realm, the Inculas trapped the comatose victims within a castle and overpowered Cosmos with a cylindrical barrier. After being freed by Ayano, Cosmos assumed Corona Mode and destroy Inculas with Prominence Ball. Scriptwriter Hideyuki Kawakami admitted that he was supposed to introduce an alien race who manipulated Inculas in its debut, but forgot to do so in the final cut. At that moment, it was actually a different alien race altogether than the Noir themselves.^[50]
  • Fantasy Small Monster Small Inculas (夢幻小魔獣 スモールインキュラス, Mugen Sho Majū Sumōru Inkyurasu, 8): Inculas' lesser forms, which appeared as pink sheep. They can recombine to return to their original singular form.^[51]

Regressed into a building named Ragstone Core (ラグストーンコア, Ragustōn Koa), the monster hypnotizes on specified humans to strengthen their body potential to its limits, at the same time absorbing their brainwaves and free will in return. Ragstone gained its cultists from politicians to famous figures on television, including Dr. Kawaya's assistant Migita and Team EYES' Mizuki. After Ragstone was exposed by SRC, it reverted into its monster form and the Alien Noir saucer assisted it in hypnotizing other victims. Under Dr. Kawaya's advice, Cosmos expels the human emotion it previously absorbed, causing Ragstone to be retrieved by the Noir's saucer. Being another monster servant to Alien Noir, the Ragstone's suit was created from Inculas, the latter also served the same master. Ragstone was designed after an American football player, with its fight against Cosmos was emphasized to resemble such sports.^[52] Director Hideyuki Kawakami likens the episode plot to real life issues of the drug abuse in an easy to understand way for children.^[50] Instead of being driven aggressive in the same way to drug withdrawal symptom, it was written as just being collapse from it.^[52]
  • Ragstone Mechalator (ラグストーン・メカレーター, Ragusutōn Mekarētā, 53): In order to assist the Alien Noir in securing the baby Arados, Ragstone was further modified into a cyborg and fight Cosmos. Due to its extraterrestrial origin, Ragstone is able to adapt to the cybernetic modification without suffering from any setbacks. With the Ultra severely weakened, Arados used the last of its power to banish Ragstone to the edge of time.
• Taildass Mechalator (テールダス・メカレーター, Tērudasu Mekarētā, 43):^[c] A different Taildass was captured by Alien Noir and forcefully converted into their cyborg monster.

Its firepower is said to contain the grudges of 20 monsters.

Sandloss
