List of Ultraman Orb characters

This is the character list for the 2016 Ultra Series Ultraman Orb. The series as well spawned several continuations, such as Ultraman Orb The Movie, Ultraman Orb: The Origin Saga and Ultra Fight Orb.

Gai Kurenai (クレナイ・ガイ, Kurenai Gai) is a mysterious, yet cheerful young adventurer that travels around the Earth for a long time while playing his Orbnica (オーブニカ, Ōbunika)^[a] musical instrument. His true identity is the mysterious warrior Ultraman Orb (ウルトラマンオーブ, Urutoraman Ōbu), who descended from beyond the outer galaxy to protect the Earth and stop the resurrection of the Lord Monsters.^[1][2][3] He possesses abilities that are beyond what normal humans are capable of, such as withstanding cold environments for a long time, performing superhuman leaps and displaying the use of ESP to detect objects from beneath the ground. Having lived on Earth for a long time (since 1,800 BC), he has a habit of remarking the past events and nostalgia that seemingly faded in the modern times due to constant development in the human civilization.

Sometime in the past, Orb's power was located at the unexplored mountain peak called Crusader's Peak (戦士の頂, Senshi no Itadaki) from distant planet called O-50 (オーフィフティ, Ō Fifuti). Two young warriors, Gai and Juggler and climbed towards the peak and try to obtain its powers. Gai was chosen to be the Warrior of Light and had the powers of Orb bestowed upon him, transforming into an Ultraman he is currently known for. After foiling the invasion of Bezelves, Gai completed his first mission and embark on a journey to collect all four elements of Orbcalibur. At one point he took a Planet Cobol native Shorty under his wing before the latter died from disarming Juggler's Balloonga Bomb.

Gai descended to Earth as part of his mission to prevent Orochi's revival but his ally-turned-adversary Jugglus Juggler follows in suit, unsealing Lord Monsters to collect their cards by having Orb defeated them. As a result, from Orb's battle with Maga-Zetton, Gai lost his true form (designated Orb Origin) and seemingly killing Natasha, a woman he befriended. He eventually made his way to Japan in 2016 and took refuge in the SSP base after befriending its members. After using Thunder Breastar to destroy Orochi, Gai once more suffers from the fear of his own power, which led to Naomi's hospitalization when said form nearly killed her. Once discovering Natasha's survival and Naomi being her descendant, Gai regains faith in himself and his true form after 108 years. During his final battle with Magatano-Orochi, Orb finds himself being unable to deliver any attacks to the monster and was considered defeat. When reverted to his human form, Gai deals with Juggler in his state of mental breakdown and learned that his own rival actually rescued Natasha from Maga-Zetton. This allows Gai to finally giving his respect to Juggler after years of seeing each other as bitter enemies and eventually teaming up to destroy Magatano-Orochi. In aftermath of the battle, Gai left to parts unknown while assuring Naomi that he would return when the time needed.

In his early days as Ultraman Orb, Gai transforms solely through the Orbcalibur (オーブカリバー, Ōbu Karibā). At that time, Orb is known by the form as Origin the First (オリジン・ザ・ファースト, Orijin Za Fāsuto), with his red color dominated majority of his body. His main finisher is the Origium Ray (オリジウム光線, Orijiumu Kōsen).^[4] Following the success of his first mission, Orb evolves into Orb Origin (オーブオリジン, Ōbu Orijin), gaining the additional black marking to his body and utilizes the Orbcalibur during combat.^[5] This form was originally lost upon destroying Maga-Zetton, but regained it after obtaining a blank card from Natasha's spirit and restoring faith in his own power.^[6] While the Orbcalibur is capable of firing each of elemental Calibur attacks separately, Orb Origin's main finisher is the Orb Supreme Calibur (オーブスプリームカリバー, Ōbu Supurīmu Karibā), a power drawn by activating all 4 elemental Caliburs on the Orbcalibur simultaneously, initiated when Gai inserting the smaller Orbcalibur into the Orb Ring and charging it, then pulling a trigger on the sword hilt and spinning the center wheel to fully activate it. This action launches a massive energy beam from the sword, but can also create a citywide explosion when used with full anger. Apart from that, he can also utilize elemental attacks using the Orbcalibur:

• Orb Ground Calibur (オーブグランドカリバー, Ōbu Gurando Karibā): Performed by stabbing the Earth with Orbcalibur, summoning electrical voltages that circle towards the opponent. The Earth element was obtained from Murnau after she escaped in Jewel Planet Cobol.
• Orb Flame Calibur (オーブフレイムカリバー, Ōbu Fureimu Karibā): A circular flame that shrouds the target with a large circle before eliminating them. The Fire element was obtained from citizens of Planet Ganun Api after foiling Count Orlock and defeating Magma Monster Gora.
• Orb Water Calibur (オーウォーターカリバー, Ōbu Wōtā Karibā): Performed by evaporating the target in a giant whirlpool. The Water element was obtained from Gamakujira's defeat in Water Planet Nuok.
• Orb Wind Calibur (オーブウインドカリバー, Ōbu Uindo Karibā): Performed by conjuring the target in a giant cyclone. The Wind element is the final one to be obtained from Wind Planet Guillermo after an encounter from Juggler, who stole it from the Alien Zartana.

After the success of his second mission, Gai obtains the Orb Ring (オーブリング, Ōbu Ringu), a legendary device that allows him to utilize Ultra Fusion Cards (ウルトラフュージョンカード, Urutora Fyūjon Kādo) and harness their powers. It was mainly used on Earth during Orb's period of losing Orb Origin. Orb can also channel the power of these cards even in human form, as shown when Gai blocked an incoming attack by Alien Zetton Maddock via Ultraman's card. Once his Color Timer (カラータイマー, Karā Taimā) starts blinking, the Fusion Up form begins to break apart so he must end the fight quickly before entering the time limit. After defeating a Lord Monster, Gai would use the Orb Ring to harvest its Maga Crystal and acquire the corresponding Ultra Fusion Card based on the Ultra Warrior that was used to seal the monster. Once a card is acquired, he would store it in his Ultra Fusion Card Holder (ウルトラフュージョンカードホルダー, Urutora Fyūjon Kādo Horudā) until the time would be needed to use said card.

By initiating Fusion Up, Orb can harness the power of two Ultra Warriors at once through his forms:

• Spacium Zeperion (スペシウムゼペリオン, Supeshiumu Zeperion):^[b] Orb's default form, aside from his original Orb Origin form, based on Ultraman and Ultraman Tiga. In this form, Orb relies on energy-based attacks. He is also capable of channeling either Ultraman's various abilities, such as the Ultra Barrier and Ultra Shower, or one of the unique abilities of Tiga's Type Change forms, such as Power Type's strength and Sky Type's speed. Orb's finisher in this form is the Sperion Ray (スペリオン光線, Superion Kōsen).^[7]
• Burnmite (バーンマイト, Bānmaito): Orb's strength form based on Ultraman Taro and Ultraman Mebius. In this form, Orb is capable of channeling either Taro's acrobatic feats or Mebius Burning Brave's pyrokinetic-based attacks. Orb's finishers in this form are the Stobium Dynamite (ストビュームダイナマイト, Sutobyūmu Dainamaito) and Stobium Burst (ストビュームバースト, Sutobyūmu Bāsuto).^[8]
• Hurricane Slash (ハリケーンスラッシュ, Harikēn Surasshu): Orb's speed form based on Ultraman Jack and Ultraman Zero. In this form, Orb is capable of utilizing teleportation and wielding twin energy boomerang knives known as the Orb Slugger (オーブスラッガー, Ōbu Suraggā), which can also combine into a trident known as the Orb Slugger Lance (オーブスラッガーランス, Ōbu Suraggā Ransu). Orb's finishers with the Orb Slugger Lance are Orb Lancer Shoot (オーブランサーシュート, Ōbu Ransā Shūto), Big Bang Thrust (ビッグバングスラスト, Biggu Bangu Surasuto), and Trident Slash (トライデントスラッシュ, Toraidento Surasshu).^[9][10][11]
• Thunder Breastar (サンダーブレスター, Sandā Buresutā):^[c] Orb's berserker form based on Zoffy and Ultraman Belial. In this form, Orb's fighting skills revolve around brute strength, reflecting that of a rampant, where he will even use the environments around him to his own advantage, such as tearing off a building and throwing it towards the opponent. Orb's voice and grunts also become distorted due to his savage nature. Originally, Gai was reluctant to use this form due to both his notoriety and Belial's refusal but was given approval in response to Gai's anger over Princess Tamayura's loss by Maga-Orochi. This form also causes Gai to lose control over himself using various means to destroy his opponent and had almost killed both Naomi and a Z-VTOL pilot while fighting against Galactron. This eventually shook his will and had his reputation tarnished until Gai learned to accept his inner darkness, giving him more control over this form and eventually restoring his reputation when shielding the SSP members from Zeppandon's attacks. Orb's finisher in this form is the Zedcium Ray (ゼットシウム光線, Zettoshiumu Kōsen).^[9][12][13]
• Lightning Attacker (ライトニングアタッカー, Raitoningu Atakkā): Based on Ultraman Ginga and Ultraman X, Orb gains a body based on futuristic technology known as the Cyber Mechanic (サイバーメカニック, Saibā Mekanikku) which allows him to perform electricity-based attacks. Orb's finisher in this form is the Attacker Ginga X (アタッカーギンガエックス, Atakkā Ginga Ekkusu).
• Emerium Slugger (エメリウムスラッガー, Emeriumu Suraggā): Based on Ultraseven and Ultraman Zero. Orb's finisher in this form is the Wide Slugger Shot (ワイドスラッガーショット, Waido Suraggā Shotto).

In Ultraman Orb The Movie, Ultraman Orb gain access to a form known as Orb Trinity (オーブトリニティ, Ōbu Torinitī), which uses the aspects of New Generation Ultra Warriors, Ginga, Victory and X.^[14][15] Because of how it uses three component Ultramen instead of two, this form is regarded as Trinity Fusion (トリニティフュージョン, Toriniti Fyūjon). Orb's main weapon is Orb Slasher (オーブスラッシャー, Ōbu Surasshā), the device that invokes said transformation, which allows him to perform three finishers; Trinitium Break (トリニティウムブレイク, Torinitiumu Bureiku), Trinitium Shoot (トリニティウムシュート, Torinitiumu Shūto) and Trinitium Giga Slash (トリニティウム光輪, Torinitiumu Kōrin). By himself, he can perform Trinitium Straight (トリニティウムストレート, Torinitiumu Sutorēto) flying punch and tapping into his component's own powers, such as Victory's EX Red King Knuckle and a portion of X's Gomora Armor. In Ultraman Geed the Movie, Orb can summon the entirety of Gomora Armor to gain access into cyberspace and rescues Geed from Galactron MK-II's digitization.

In addition, the Data Carddass game Ultraman Fusion Fight! also introduced game-exclusive Fusion Up. Alongside the original Fusion Up, Orb retained the original attacks of past Ultra Warriors in addition to newer attacks.^[7]

• Leo Zero Knuckle (レオゼロナックル, Reo Zero Nakkuru): Based on Ultraman Leo and Ultraman Zero. Orb's finisher in this form is the Knuckle Cross Beam (ナックルクロスビーム, Nakkuru Kurosu Bīmu).
• Zeperion Solgent (ゼペリオンソルジェント, Zeperion Sorujento): Based on Ultraman Tiga and Ultraman Dyna. Orb's finisher in this form is the Multi Flash Slicer (マルチフラッシュスライサー, Maruchi Furasshu Suraisā).

Gai Kurenai is portrayed by Hideo Ishiguro (石黒 英雄, Ishiguro Hideo).^[1][3] Meanwhile, the voice actor for the Orb Ring is Takahiro Sakurai (櫻井 孝宏, Sakurai Takahiro), who voices Ultraman in Ultraman Festival 2016.^[17]

The conception of Gai Kurenai/Ultraman Orb was made by the series' director Kiyotaka Taguchi, based on Dan Moroboshi/Ultraseven from the Ultra Series' second installment Ultraseven. Takao Nakano soon added more fictional wanderer attributes such as Japanese novel Lone Samurai Monjiro, actor Clint Eastwood and Tsunehiko Kamijō's image song, Dareka ga Kaze no Naka de. All this is done under the purpose to "re-invoke the wanderer hero in the 21st century world".^[18][19]

Phantom Demon Jugglus Juggler (無幻魔人 ジャグラスジャグラー, Mugen Majin Jagurasu Jagurā, ^[e])^[f] is the main antagonist of the series and Gai Kurenai/Ultraman Orb's archenemy. Usually appears as a well-dressed young human male, he is capable of transforming into an armored form called Demon Form (魔人態, Majin-tai).^[g] He is a very emphatic and short-tempered creature who is known to be easily irritated to the point of violently tantrums.^[1] In the series, Juggler's entire act of atrocities stems from his jealousy over Gai for not being chosen as the warrior of light and his entire motivation is to surpass Ultraman Orb himself.

Long ago, Jugglus and Gai once fought as comrades and constantly competed with each other. But after Gai acquired the light of Orb, their relationship began to strain as Jugglus' jealousy slowly grew. Juggler accompanied Gai on his mission to stop Psychi and his Bezelves but denounced his support after damaging the Tree of Life, preferring to participate on his own proxy.^[4] After the battle, the two went on separate ways as Juggler becomes a mercenary who participated in various wars from outer space until he landed on a job as the Alien Zartana' bodyguard and fight against Gai. He was soon imprisoned in Planet 484 where he met Biranki and took her under his wing as they led a prison break before Gai helped the Interstellar Alliance to imprison them. With his jealousy for Gai reached climax, Juggler was bestowed the Dark Ring as he completely fell into the darkness and tails Gai to Earth. Whereas Gai tries to stop Maga-Orochi from awakening, Juggler freed the Lord Monster and harvested their cards upon destruction by Orb.

In the present day (after collecting all Lord Monster cards), he awakened Maga-Orochi through the Ultraman Belial card he obtained by backstabbing the Planetary Invasion Coalition and used Zeppandon to fight Orb. After losing the Dark Ring, Juggler trains by perfecting his new attack and prepared for what it seemed to be the final fight with Gai/Orb before being defeated once more. Using his apprehension by VTL, he relayed Magatano-Orochi's awakening to the public via VTL and tricked them to help in its resurrection as well. After escaping, Juggler prepared to kill Naomi but when she willingly took responsibility of her own death, he was hesitant to do so and instead rescued her from a crashed Z-VTOL. After discovering that Juggler rescued Natasha long ago, he was redeemed in his rival's--Gai's--eye and eventually joined Orb after being persuaded by Naomi. During the battle, Juggler would sacrifice himself to restrain the monster so that Orb could deliver the final blow. Juggler would survive the attack without a scratch and watched Gai for the last time from a distance. In Ultraman Orb The Movie, Juggler reclaimed the Dark Ring from Murnau after his undercover and fought against the Dark Alien Army before saving the SSP and the petrified Ultras, Ginga, Victory and X. He was last seen bidding farewell to Gai, waiting his rival on space.

Being a warrior of such caliber as Gai, Juggler is capable of many extraordinary feats such as teleportation and enhanced physical reflexes. In addition, he employs the Jashin Style (蛇心流, Jashin-ryū) of swordsmanship, wielding a katana called the Jashin Blade (蛇心剣, Jashin-ken). He can employ attacks such as the powerful Jashin Blade's Sword-Draw Slash (蛇心剣・抜刀斬, Jashin-ken Battō-zan). In his final confrontation with Gai/Ultraman Orb, he unveils a new attack that he had perfected called the Jashin Blade's Crescent Moon Shockwave (蛇心剣・新月斬波, Jashin-ken Shingetsu Zanpa), which launches a dark crescent wave from his sword.

Jugglus' main tools are Dark Ring (ダークリング, Dāku Ringu) and a set of Monster Cards, which allow him to awaken the Lord Monsters, summoning monsters or manifesting their powers. He also possess a Terrible-Monster-type Monster Cards, which are considered rarity. Upon an Ultra Monster's destruction, Jugglus can harvest their remains to create a corresponding card, which he does so to gain the sets of Lord Monsters. The Dark Ring disappeared from Zeppandon's destruction, finding its way to Murnau before Juggler reclaim it and for him to abandon it once more. Among the monsters he summoned were Aribunta, Cherubim, Black King and Zeppandon, with the former three were during his service in Planetary Invasion Coalition and the latter on his own.

Jugglus Juggler is portrayed by Takaya Aoyagi (青柳 尊哉, Aoyagi Takaya).^[1] Although the official brochure of The Origin Saga stated that Gai and Juggler are natives of O-50, Aoyagi denied it as such.^[20]

Space Girl Biranki (宇宙少女 ビランキ, Uchū Shōjo Biranki) is a character that appeared in Chapters 3, 5-2, and 10 of Ultraman Orb Chronicle.

Biranki was once a princess of an unnamed planet that was born with the ability to manipulate monsters. After being imprisoned by her parents due to the danger her power wields, her anger summoned Gango and nearly destroyed the planet before she was removed to Planet 484 by Interstellar Alliance. Ever since she was rescued by Juggler, Biranki falls in love with him, having prophesied his aid in her dream and assisted Juggler in the prison break. After Gai and Shorty neutralised the situation, Biranki was imprisoned again to a different cell, separating from Juggler.

Sometime later, Biranki escaped her confinement and went to Earth with the saucer monster Hungler to assist Juggler. After said monster's destruction by Orb, Juggler saved and left Biranki on another planet to avoid her intervention.

Biranki's main ability is to manipulate monsters, with her influence even reach other dimensions. Among the examples are:

• Brainwave Monster Gango (脳波怪獣 ギャンゴ, Nōha Kaijū Gyango, 3): An alternate dimension monster manipulated by Biranki into destroying a city, which resulted in her imprisonment in the first place. Gango was summoned again in hopes of assisting her and Juggler in escaping prison. Alongside the freed inmates of Planet 484, Gango participated in a battle against Ultraman Orb but was eliminated by his Orb Ground Calibur. First appeared in episode 11 of Ultraman.
• Saucer Creature Hungler (円盤生物 ハングラー, Enban Seibutsu Hangurā, 5-2): A monster that accompanied Biranki to Earth in the 1950s to eliminate Ultraman Orb. In hopes of luring Gai, Hungler attacked random ships and airplanes in the Burlesque (バーレスク, Bāresuku) region of South America, creating the disappearing incidents called Burlesque Triangle (バーレスク・トライアングル, Bāresuku Toraianguru).^[h] Orb fought the monster as Spacium Zeperion and it fell into the Coral Beach, creating a tsunami upon impact. First appeared in episode 45 of Ultraman Leo.

The Light of Orb (オーブの光, Ōbu no Hikari) is a bluish halo that resided at the Crusader's Peak in Planet O-50.^[21] After rejecting Juggler, the halo chooses Gai as the bearer of Ultraman Orb's power and his first mission to stop Psychi and his army of Bezelves. The ring would later provide Gai with various missions, including the hunt for the crystals making up the Orbcalibur and giving him the Orb Ring to stop the awakening of Maga-Orochi.

Outside the events of Ultraman Orb, the Light of Orb has also bestowed selected climbers of Crusader's Peak with their respective powers. Some of these examples include Rosso, Blu, Grigio, Fuma,^[21] and Sagittari.

Credited as the Voice of Light (光の声, Hikari no Koe) in Ultraman Orb: The Chronicle, the Light of Orb is voiced by Takahiro Sakurai, who also provides the voice announcements of Orb Ring in Ultraman Orb.

The Something Search People (サムシングサーチピープル, Samushingu Sāchi Pīpuru, SSP) is a mysterious phenomenon tracking site which bends on uncovering paranormal events and monster sightings. They usually patrol in the SSP-7 car and is always the place where Shibukawa (and by extent the whole VTL Squad) relies on information when the said group incapable of researching on their own. This group was founded by Naomi Yumeno from her childhood dream of Ultraman Orb fighting against Maga-Zetton, and is also the team's sole breadwinner by engaging in multiple part-time jobs.^[1] During Magatano-Orochi's rampage, they received the original copy of Pacific Records from Akie Kishine and each played a major part in the final battle. After said monster's destruction, the SSP website has achieved a grand total of 240 million worldwide views, thus marking it as their greatest success.

The group's name is simply one letter short from SSSP (Science Special Search Party), the main investigation attack team from Ultraman. Instead of being website managers, the original idea behind the SSP was to follow the example of Kogoro Akechi, the fictional character from Edogawa Ranpo's novel series, The Boy Detectives Club.^[22]

• Naomi Yumeno (夢野 ナオミ, Yumeno Naomi):^[i] SSP's team captain and the original series' secondary protagonist. She is known for her energetic and cheerful personality but also had a running gag of tripping down when walking out. As the great-granddaughter of Natasha, she inherited several traits from the former such as the battle of Orb with Maga-Zetton and memories of Gai's Orbnica melody among others.^[6] While obvious to the dangers ahead, she displays a huge bravery in pursuing truths and sometimes caught within near death experiences. During Magatano-Orochi's rampage, Naomi was kidnapped by Juggler in an attempt to drive Gai into despair but when she willingly took responsibility of her own death, he instead rescued her from a crashed Z-VTOL just like her great grandmother, as well as playing a huge part in Juggler's redemption. Naomi Yumeno is portrayed by Miyabi Matsuura (松浦 雅, Matsūra Miyabi).^[1]
• Jetta Hayami (早見 ジェッタ, Hayami Jetta):^[j] is a cameraman and updating the SSP's website. Informative and self-proclaimed adventurous, he has an affinity for UFO and UMA and dream is to become a celebrity through his research on the world's mysteries. As a child, Jetta was reminded by his father that being a hero doesn't mean to always put his own life in harm. Of all SSP members, Jetta is the most active person in uncovering Ultraman Orb's true identity. Jetta Hayami is portrayed by Naoto Takahashi (髙橋 直人, Takahashi Naoto).^[1] As a child, Jetta is portrayed by Atsuki Hagihara (萩原 淳貴, Hagihara Atsuki).
• Shin Matsudo (松戸 シン, Matsudo Shin):^[k] SSP's research analyst. He is a 23-year-old genius who graduated by skipping years in college and gains popularity since his childhood. He is knowledgeable in state-of-the-art physics, creating ingenious inventions and researching ancient civilizations but lacks common sense. A genius himself, Shin has made multiple scientific achievements ever since he was a child, to the point of receiving a letter from Stephen Hawking in his days as a middle school student while receiving moral support from the Kofune Manufacturing president Soichi Kofune. He has multiple childhood dreams such as building a transporter, a heroic robot and becoming a veterinarian. Shin Matsudo is portrayed by Hiroaki Nerio (ねりお 弘晃, Nerio Hiroaki).^[1]

VTL Squad (ビートル隊, Bītoru-tai, Versatile Tactical Leader)^[l] is an international military organization founded under the United Nations branch and is based on Paris. They possess a connection to the independent group SSP via their captain, Shibukawa and the Kofune Manufacturing in terms of mechanics.^[1] While originally a simple military organization, frequent monster attacks starting from the advent of Maga-Basser in Japan forced them to revise their arsenal and combat strength in order to efficiently combat against monster attacks.^[23] After Orb as Thunder Breastar endangered both a Z-VTOL pilot and Naomi, VTL labelled the Ultra Warrior as a public enemy until he saved the SSP members during Zeppandon's rampage.^[6] During Jugglus Juggler's capture and Magatano-Orochi's revival, VTL members decides to take account of Juggler's warning and his advice to stop the monster by destroying the Tokyo Tower (the centerpoint of its revival) with their Spiner R-1 missile but realises too late that they were tricked into fulfilling their prophesied destruction.

According to Kiyotaka Taguchi, VTL is a small contrast to most of the attack teams from past Ultra Series as this team lacks a research department, further explaining their ties to SSP. This is also due to Taguchi himself viewing them as "ordinary street officers", wanting to give the SSP a larger screen time.^[19] Unlike other regular officers, high ranking VTL Squad members were previously Japanese government officials instead of top soldiers.^[24]

Members

• Ittetsu Shibukawa (渋川 一徹, Shibukawa Ittetsu): The captain of VTL Japan's Special Intelligence Unit (情報特務隊, Jōhō Tokumu-tai) and Naomi's uncle, being her mother's younger brother-in-law.^[m] A godan in Judo and sandan in Karate, he has a strong sense in responsibility and is fearful of Naomi wandering off investigating paranormal cases but does shows some support by notifying the SSP of paranormal activity or visiting them for information. When Orb's public reputation was tarnished, Shibukawa still retained his faith in the Ultra Warrior and was excited when Jetta managed to filmed his actions of saving them. During Magatano-Orochi's rampage, Shibukawa used his position in the group and through SSP's help, he informed the Z-VTOL fleet to attack Magatano-Orochi's weak spot. Ittetsu Shibukawa is portrayed by Shingo Yanagisawa (柳沢 慎吾, Yanagisawa Shingo),^[1] who previously done the dub voice for Charles Morgan in Ultraman: Towards the Future.
• Ryutaro Suganuma (菅沼 龍太郎, Suganuma Ryutarō, 24): VTL Japan's chief. He is portrayed by Shirō Sano (佐野 史郎, Sano Shirō).
• Nagamine (長嶺, 24): VTL Japan's high-ranking member. He is portrayed by Masayuki Ito (伊藤 正之, Itō Masayuki).
• Sakai (阪井, 24): VTL Japan's high-ranking member. He is portrayed by Tsuyoshi Nakano (中野 剛, Nakano Tsuyoshi).

Arsenal and mechas

• Super Gun Revolver (スーパーガンリボルバー, Sūpā Gan Riborubā): A handheld revolver that launches energy bullet ammunition. The gun is based on a revolver, while its barrel and namesake is a tribute to SSSP's Super Gun (スーパーガン, Sūpā Gan) from Ultraman.
• Z-VTOL (ゼットビートル, Zetto Bītoru): Coded S050, this VTOL jet is the crew's main transportation and is always seen when fighting against giant monster threats.^[3] Despite being an aerial craft, it can also function in a similar way to a space fighter. This ship is also made in the Kofune Manufacturing, with its president felt glad that his inventions prove beneficial to save lives. Z-VTOL is themed after SSSP's Jet VTOL from Ultraman, but uses the modified Space VTOL S217 Ikazuchi prop from Ultraman Mebius.^[19]
• Howa Type 89: A standard assault rifle that was similarly used by the Japan Self-Defense Forces.^[25]
• Spiner R-1 (スパイナーR1, Supainā Āru Wan):^[n] An intercontinental ballistic missile that was developed by the VTL's headquarter in Paris. Its impact range is estimated to be 10 km radius. This missile was launched towards the Tokyo Tower to stop Magatano-Orochi from awakening under Juggler's own advice but instead it played a pivotal part in the monster's own resurrection. The missile was also prophesied in Magatano-Orochi's awakening in the Pacific Records, symbolized as "an arrow like a bolt that strikes the ground".

War Deity (戦神, Ikusagami) is an ancient war deity in Planet Kanon. Born from the Tree of Life, the War Deity functions as the protector of the Tree of Life from its own sibling, Queen Bezelve. According to the ancient prophecy, their destined encounter would cause the destruction of the universe itself. The War Deity's image is used as the royal insignia of Kanon, both royalty and its soldiers.

The War Deity's power was invoked twice by Amate in hopes of peacefully negotiating with the Queen Bezelve. Unfortunately both occasions turned out to be a trap in hopes of using the War Deity as a bomb to spread Kugutsu to the entire universe until the intervention of Orb and other Ultra Warriors saved her.

The characters of the Royal Planet Kanon (王立惑星カノン, Ōritsu Wakusei Kanon) appear exclusively in Ultraman Orb: The Origin Saga. The planet itself bears a giant tree called the "Tree of Life" (命の樹, Inochi no Ki), which supports all lives on said planet. In the past, the giant tree created both War Deity and the Queen Bezelve as symbols of light and darkness. When the Tree of Life was destroyed by Juggler, another seed on Earth regrows into the same tree, therefore sustaining its life force.

Psychi (サイキ) is an Alien Wraith (レイフ星人, Reifu Seijin) scientist and is the main antagonist of Ultraman Orb: The Origin Saga. After grieving over the loss of his parents in a war, Psychi met and was manipulated by the Queen into assisting her with spreading the Kugutsu to the entire universe while seeking the Tree of Life's fruits in hopes of excluding himself from the infection. On Earth, after witnessing the Queen injured as a result of betraying him, Psychi combined with her via Partel into Psyqueen and effectively relieved him from the need of the Tree of Life. Before Psyqueen's destruction, Partel saved him by separating the fusion while Gai highlighted the errors of his ways.

Psychi is portrayed by Izumi Motoya (和泉 元彌).^[4] As a child, Psychi is portrayed by Shouta Ikoma (生駒 星汰, Ikoma Shōta).

Partel (パーテル, Pāteru) is Psychi's AI that assist him in his plans and acted as his sole companion. While played a pivotal role in combining her creator and Queen Bezelve into Psyqueen, she saved him in the last minute and deactivated after taking a hit from an incoming rubble meant for Shinra and Ricca.^[29]

Partel is voiced by Riho Iida (飯田 里穂, Iida Riho), who is the voice actress for Aki Miyashita/Agira in Kaiju Girls. As the character is her first non-human voice role, Riho expressed her excitement for the role and wished to portray Partel in a more attractive manner in the future.^[30]

Space Devil Queen Bezelve (宇宙悪魔 クイーンベゼルブ, Uchū Akuma Kuīn Bezerubu) is the actual antagonist of Ultraman Orb: The Origin Saga.^[4] Long ago when the Tree of Life disperse its fruits to outer space, the Queen was born alongside her sibling War Deity. As the antithesis of her own sibling, the Queen was meant to destroy the Tree of Life and erase free will from outer space, causing affected life forms to slowly die and civilizations perish. To that end she manipulated Psychi into his cooperation and eventually Amate into transforming as the War Deity. The infection of her sibling would cause her Kugutsu to spread across the space. Although having outright abandoned Psychi, the two were combined by Partel into Psyqueen (サイクイーン, Saikuīn) before her death by the Ultra Warriors.

The Queen Bezelve's main ability is to manipulate her own children and victims of Kugutsu, rapidly grows in strength when infected victims tend to win on a fight. She is capable of taking an upright position from her hunching state, symbolizing her constant mutation. In addition, her cries can also be misinterpreted by others as a cry for help.

Once injected, the victims will be enslaved, either following the Bezelve's command or forced to fight against one another. The winning competitor of the Kugutsu infection would simultaneously cause the Queen Bezelve to grow in strength. The poison itself cannot be exorcised by Cosmos Luna Mode's Luna Extract and can only be removed by the seed of Planet Kanon's Tree of Life.

The Bezelves are designed by Hiroshi Maruyama, a freelance designer that previously affiliated to Tsuburaya Productions until 2008.^[31]

Verokron's main ability is Zenmestro Attack (ゼンメストロアタック, Zenmesutoro Atakku), launching various missiles towards its opponent. First appeared in episode 1 of Ultraman Ace.

Great Lord Monster Maga-Orochi (大魔王獣 マガオロチ, Dai Maō-jū Maga Orochi, 11, 12) is the main antagonist of Ultraman Orb, representing as Chapter 6 of Ultraman Orb Chronicle. Hailed from the Monster Galaxy (モンスター銀河, Monsutā Ginga), Maga-Orochi consumed various planets in its path. After landing on Earth, Orochi created six other Lord Monsters and Orochi kidnapped Princess Tamayura before it was sealed by Zoffy, permanently trapped in its egg state. Although Gai believed that Jugglus' efforts to awaken it were thwarted after all six of the Lord Monster had been "destroyed", he simply used their cards and with Belial's card, the seal made by Zoffy's Ultra Fusion Card broke, allowing Maga-Orochi to reawaken once more. Orb tried to stop it but was quickly defeated and went to sleep afterwards. After waking up and resuming its reign of terror, Maga-Orochi soon destroyed Princess Tamayura, Gai to transform into Orb's Thunder Breastar form. Unlike before, Maga-Orochi found itself weakened by both Belial and Zoffy's powers before being obliterated by Zedcium Ray. Its severed tail was salvaged by Juggler in the formation of Zeppandon, which ultimately led to his own downfall when said tail carried the Orbcalibur which Gai retrieved to assume Orb Origin. As it seemed that Maga-Orochi had died, in truth it was actually a juvenile and eventually left its body to the Earth's crust as part of its life cycle. The monster spent its entire time eating the grounds nutrients and its presence caused multiple monsters to leave Japan and alien saucers to depart from Earth. After being tricked by Juggler into firing the Spiner R1 missile, VTL Squad accidentally assisted Orochi's revival into Giga Lord Monster Magatano-Orochi (超大魔王獣 マガタノオロチ, Chō Dai Maō-jū Magatano Orochi, 24, 25). Orb tries to fight against the monster but was defeated after both of his strongest forms, Thunder Breastar and Orb Origin proven ineffective, as well as being shot in his own Color Timer. Orb faced the monster again, this time with the help of Juggler and the SSP/VTL exposed Magatano-Orochi's weakness, allowing him to channel the power of past Ultra Warriors to defeat the monster once and for all.

By itself, Maga-Orochi travels across other planets by turning itself into an egg called as Maga-Soul (マガ魂, Maga Tamashī) and creates other Lord Monsters by tapping into Earth elements. Maga-Orochi's main attack is Maga Thunderclap (マガ迅雷, Maga Jinrai), launching a bolt of lightning from its mouth. As Magatano-Orochi, the monster gained access to the signature abilities of past Lord Monster in addition to its own attack, Magatano Thunderclap (マガタノ迅雷, Magatano Jinrai). Its main weakness is a wounded spot on the right side of its lower jaw, which was a result of Maga-Orochi crushing the sacred tree in Kamio Park while sending off its energies underground, causing certain part of the monster to be defect.

Lord Monsters (魔王獣, Maō-jū) were antagonists that appeared in the original series.^[1] Their origin traces back to the ancient past where Maga-Orochi's egg reached the Earth and gave birth when its power taps into the Earth elements. Due to being the "distorted personification of Earth elements", they possessed the ability to change nature, hence past Ultras choose to seal them instead of killing to preserve the Earth. They were awakened by Jugglus through the use of his Dark Ring and Monster Cards and possess Maga Crystals on their heads which allowed Gai to claim the corresponding Ultra Fusion Cards should they be defeated but at the same time, it also allowed Jugglus to claim theirs in hopes of awakening Maga-Orochi.

To awaken a sealed Lord Monster, Jugglus need to send in Monster Cards of the similar attribute as a counteract to the sealed Ultra Warrior energy and to feed them with the cards' powers. Most of these monsters are original to the series, while others are reincarnation of monsters from past Ultra Series. Due to them being present in the past, their activities were recorded in the present day by the Pacific Records (太平風土記, Taihei Fudoki).

• Darkness Lord Monster Maga-Tanothor (闇ノ魔王獣 マガタノゾーア, Yami no Maō-jū Maga Tanozōa, Chapter 4):^[32][33] A Lord Monster that was sealed by Ultraman Tiga. Upon his first arrival on Earth, Juggler awakened Maga-Tanothor in 1800 BC towards the Ishtal civilization and founded Magasism, a cult that praises Maga-Tanothor. Upon being defeated by Ultraman Orb, Tiga's card was collected by Gai while Maga-Tanothor's card was picked by Juggler. The result of Maga-Tanothor's appearance had turned Ishtal into the infamous Mohenjo-Daro, being the foundation of "ancient nuclear warfare" theory made by modern researchers. Maga-Tanothor's powers are Maga Darkness (マガ冥闇, Maga Meian) and summoning tentacles as whips and constrictions, with the latter ability was demonstrated by Magatano-Orochi in the series proper.^[34] Maga-Tanothor is a tribute to Gatanothor from episodes 51 and 52 of Ultraman Tiga.
• Light Lord Monster Maga-Zetton (光ノ魔王獣 マガゼットン, Hikari no Maō-jū Maga Zetton, Chapter 5-1, 1 (Orb)): A Lord Monster that was sealed by Ultraman.

Through the cards of Kingsaurus II, Super C.O.V. and Pris-Ma, Juggler reawakened it in Rusalka and fought Orb in the past while using his true form.^[33] Orb eliminated the monster and claimed Ultraman's card but the ensuing battle made him believe to have killed his own friend Natasha. Maga-Zetton's Maga Light Bullet was among the powers of Lord Monster to be used by Magatano-Orochi on the series finale. Maga-Zetton is a tribute to Zetton from episode 39 of Ultraman.
• Wind Lord Monster Maga-Basser (風ノ魔王獣 マガバッサー, Kaze no Maō-jū Maga Bassā, 1):^[1] A Lord Monster that was sealed by Ultraman Mebius and laid dormant within the ionosphere of North Arctic until it was awakened by Jugglus via Peguila's card.

• Earth Lord Monster Maga-Grand King (土ノ魔王獣 マガグランドキング, Tsuchi no Maō-jū Maga Gurando Kingu, 2):^[9] A Lord Monster that was sealed by Ultraman Taro and laid dormant under the city by a feng shui system.

However, the laser beam cannot be simultaneously used alongside its heavy armor, based on a Chinese proverb. Jugglus awaken this monster through the use of Telesdon, Antlar, Gomora and Golza, which simultaneously disrupt the qi of the feng shui seal and awaken it. Ultraman Orb faced the Demon King Beast upon its awakening and finds himself at disadvantage due to its thick armor and its destructive beam. Discovering that the beam is reflectable, Orb used his shield to trick Maga-Grand King into creating a hole on its chest before using it as an opening to launch his Sperion Ray, destroying it from within. Gai claimed Ultraman Taro's card from its Maga Crystal while Jugglus claimed Maga-Grand King's card.

In the present day, Maga-Jappa was awakened by Jugglus and polluted the water supply in the city for weeks, causing it to emit an awful stench. Maga-Jappa's main attacks are turning himself invisible, using Maga Shower (マガ水流, Maga Suiryū) by launching high-pressure water stream from its nose, Maga Suction (マガ吸引, Maga Kyūin) vacuum from both of its arms and exhaling terrible odor gas called Maga Odor (マガ臭気, Maga Shūki). As Ultraman Orb can neither harm the monster in Spacium Zeperion, he utilizes Burnmite, using the form's flame abilities to counter Maga-Jappa and finally ending it with the Stobium Dynamite. Gai claimed Ultraman Jack's card from its Maga Crystal while Jugglus claimed Maga-Jappa's card. Maga-Jappa's Maga Odor was among the original Lord Monster powers exhibited by Magatano-Orochi in the series finale. According to Yuji Kobayashi and Takao Nakano, Maga-Jappa's costume was modified from Zoa-Muruchi in Ultraman Mebius.^[35]

As the Maga-Fireball was thick enough to sustain Orb's attacks, the Ultra moved it out from the atmosphere before his Color Timer runs out. While still emitting heatwave to the city, VTL Squad tried to attack with cooling missiles until returned to Earth before Ultraman Orb appeared and uses Burnmite to counter it. Soon, he resumes Spacium Zeperion and launched Sperion Ray to Pandon before it was destroyed from a long struggle sustaining the attack.
