Zoffy (ゾフィー - Zofī) is a fictional alien superhero featured in the Ultra Series. He first appeared in the final episode of Ultraman (Episode 39, "Farewell, Ultraman"), thus becoming the very second Ultra-Being from the Land of Light in the Nebula M78 to appear on Earth after Ultraman himself.

- Teleportation: In Episode 23 of Ultraman Ace, Zoffy used this power to transport Yuko Minami to the dimension to which Seiji Hokuto had been taken, allowing the two to form Ultraman Ace.
- Ultra Converter: When Ultraman Ace was fighting Gilon and Aribunta, Zoffy gave this cross-shaped bracelet to Ace, replenishing his stamina.
- Ultra Magic Ray: A polyhedron-shaped item that emits a high amount of energy. In Episode 35 of Ultraman Ace, Zoffy used this to evaporate an entire lake in Ultraman Ace's fight against Dreamguilas.
- Ultra Cross Guard: In the movie Ultraman Zoffy: Ultra Warriors vs. the Giant Monster Army, Zoffy crossed his arms to defend himself against a sudden assault from a spaceship. After that, he counterattacked with an A-Type M87 Beam that vaporized the spaceship.

In Episode 34 of Ultraman Taro, the Ultra Brothers merged with ZAT members, and then with a six-member volleyball team practicing in the neighborhood, to hide from Alien Temperor.
[edit] History
Zoffy is Ultraman's chief on the Land of Light. When Ultraman became desperate in his tough fight against Z-Ton, Zoffy came to Earth to rescue him. Ultraman referred to him as his "commander". The subsequent Ultra Series saw many adventures for Zoffy.
[edit] Movie
In his own "movie" released in 1984, Zoffy is a narrator to the audience. He starts by telling the viewer that monsters are awakening on earth and then sends Ultraman and his other brothers to deal with them. This leads to old footage from the old Ultraman series being shown. Every Ultraman from the original guy all the way to Ultraman 80 has at least one battle shown.
Conveniently they use old footage of when the other Ultras came down to assist each other in order to make the story believable. Some classic fights include Ultraman Vs Gomora, Ultraseven Vs King Joe, Jack Vs Knuckle seijin, Ace Vs Aribunta and the 6 Ultra Brothers Vs Temperar seijin.
