Power... Ultra Power

Postby Lysocanth » Tue Sep 12, 2006 1:03 pm

I have a question about the relative power of the various Showa Ultramen. Who is the most powerful? In what order would they fall? Is this even a good question? Or, are they all about equal in power but just different. I am not including the super powerfull ones like Ultra King, Ultra Father and Ultra Mother. Just the soldiers. I assumed Zoffy was the top of the heap, followed by Ultraseven, then the rest. I know that Taro is supposed to be really powerfull, but he got killed so much it's hard to take the entire series seriously. I know it's probably "cannon" but i've heard it's also considered the "fairy tale" of the series.
Anyhooooo.. what do you all think?

--Orignal Ultraman Spoiler Alert----









LOL, yep thanks.
I also remember Hiyata saying that Ultraman is invincible. Obviously that was hyperbole. He was smiling when he said it. Also, Gahora, and Zeton would disagree with him.


---Taro Spoiler Alert----








Zoffy and Taro getting whacked by Birdon was just stupid. But I don't really count the Taro show anyway. Birdon was probably the worst looking kaiju ever. The costume was well done... but just goofy. He had go-nadz hanging off his face.

In REAL LIFE (lol) that thing would never kill Zoffy.

How many times has Zophy had the $#!^ beat out of him, though? XD
