Ultraman: The Ultimate Hero

The members of WINR (pronounced "Winner") respond when members of the alien Baltan race attack Earth, but the Alien Baltans are only fended off when a gigantic alien, Ultraman Powered, joins with WINR member Kenichi Kai and gives him the power to metamorphose into Ultraman Powered in times of danger. At the end of the first episode Ultraman declares that the Alien Baltans were not completely defeated and that he will remain on Earth to continue the fight.

WINR and Ultraman Powered destroy numerous other monsters, but WINR learns that the Alien Baltans were arranging all the battles to learn Ultraman Powered's strengths and weaknesses. They also learn Kai's secret identity when Ultraman Powered is injured by Dorako and Kai sports an identical wound. In the finale the Psycho Baltan unleash their most powerful monster, Zetton. Ultraman Powered separates from Kai and takes on Zetton, but is overwhelmed. Ultraman Powered's color timer is flashing more and more rapidly as he tries to blast Zetton, only to have Zetton easily withstand the blasts. He then summons more energy despite the risk to fire a shot at Zetton's ship. This causes the shot to bounce off it towards Zetton's back, but he turns and blocks the shot. However this gives Ultraman Powered an opening and he summons the last of his energy for one final blast that hits Zetton in the back, destroying him. Ultraman Powered then falls over backwards as his energy is completely drained. Before he can perish completely, other members of the Ultra race, appearing as balls of light, arrive and convert Ultraman Powered into a red ball of light so that he can return home.

Veteran makeup artist and Ultraman fan Steve Wang was briefly involved with the production of the show. He and his team created a miniature suit model of Ultraman, which Tsuburaya approved.

Sho Kosugi, who provides Ultraman's voice in the Japanese-dubbed version in episode 1, is the father of Kane Kosugi, who plays Kenichi Kai.

This is the only time that Red King is actually red (as opposed to gold and blue). Ultraman Powered's eyes are normally blue, but they change to yellow when his Color Timer is blinking yellow and red when the Timer is blinking red.

The show spawned a video game, called Ultraman Powered, released for the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer.

• Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy (2009), Powered, along with other M78 Ultra Warriors, fights against the evil Ultraman Belial.
