[edit] Story
Mebius is a rookie UltraWarrior and has a lot to live up to. He is chosen as the new protector of the earth. This series is set in the same universe as the original timeline, when Mebius first appears to fight a monster, it is mentioned that this is the first time an Ultraman has appeared in 25 years. Under the guise of Mirai Hibino, Mebius joins CREW GUYS, the monster attack force of this series.
At the start of the first episode, all of the original team members of GUYS, save for Ryu, are killed off in their first monster battle. Mirai gathers a group of people he meets in an evacuation to join the new GUYS because he feels they have the right heart to be on GUYS.
[edit] Characters
[edit] GUYS
GUYS (ＧＵＹＳ Gaizu?) - The abbreviated name of Guards for UtilitY Situation. CREW GUYS (ＣＲＥＷ ＧＵＹＳ Kurū Gaizu?) are the monster attack team (Operational unit) of the series. The general headquarters is located in the office in New York and CREW GUYS is deployed in the headquarters of each country. There is also GUYS OCEAN (ＧＵＹＳオーシャン Gaizu Ōshan?) which defends the high seas, GUYS SPACY (ＧＵＹＳスペーシー Gaizu Supēshī?) which defends the space area, and GUYS ANTARCTICA (ＧＵＹＳアンタクティカ Gaizu Antakutika?) which defends the Antarctic Circle. They have the most advanced technology of any of the past teams in the original universe. Their special weapons are an advanced fighter jet that can fly at supersonic speeds, and the capsule monsters. The Maquette Monsters are at first small capsule like items that grow to their full size by using METEOR (メテオール Meteōru?) (The abbreviated name of Much Extreme Technology of Extraterrestrial ORigin). METEOR's power can only be used for one minute at a time. In the case of a sortie, Sakomizu says "GUYS Sally Go!" (ＧＵＹＳ、サリーゴー！ Gaizu Sarī Gō!?) (When he is absent, Toriyama or Misaki says), and "G.I.G.!" (Ｇ.Ｉ.Ｇ！ Jī Ai Jī!?) (Guys Is Green) is said in the case of "Roger!"
[edit] GUYS JAPAN
[edit] CREW GUYS Members
- Mirai Hibino (ヒビノ・ミライ Hibino Mirai?) - The main character of the series and a member of CREW GUYS. Mirai Hibino may look like a human, but he is Mebius himself instead of using a host, he uses the face of a human he once met in space, and was unable to save. He is an outgoing person and likes to make friends and help people. It is because of him that the current members of team GUYS are members. He divulged his true form to CREW GUYS members in episode 30, though partly due to his choice of appearance, Sakomizu was aware of his identity from the beginning. At the end, he will go back to M78 with Ultraman Hikari. Mebius' personal symbol is the Möbius loop or the infinity sign (as "Mebiusu" is the Japanese transliteration of "Möbius" or "Mebius"). 18 years old.
- Ryu Aihara (アイハラ・リュウ Aihara Ryū?) - He is the only surviving member from the original GUYS. When a monster first appeared, GUYS Japan was sent to take care of the monster. This was the first monster attack in nearly 25 years and no one was prepared for what would come in the battle. Dino Zaur easily defeated his comrades, and the remainder was only the fighter plane of him and Serizawa. Serizawa, not wanting Ryu to die, ejected his seat. He is a good man, but has a cold exterior after what has happened to his friends. When Mirai first meets, he is reciting the Ultra Five Oaths and Mirai joins in as well. Later on during Mebius' first battle, he berates Mebius for failing to defend the city and shielding himself with buildings, then he berates himself for failing to protect his friends. He feels responsible for all the new members of GUYS and tries his best to protect them. He habitually recites the Ultra Five Oaths after learning them from his previous captain. He was told the history of the country of light by Mirai in episode 30. During Serizawa's final battle as Hikari, Ryu rushes into the battle in a fit of rage at the sight of his former captain being killed. Ryu himself is seemingly killed until it is revealed that Serizawa passed on the Knight Brace to him, allowing him to become Hikari's temporary host. Mirai Hibino/Ultraman Mebius was able to contact him alone in episode 50. Ryu became the new captain of CREW GUYS after episode 50. 20 years old
- Marina Kazama (カザマ・マリナ Kazama Marina?) - She is a former motorcycle racer with dreams of becoming one of the first internationally known women in the sport. She had a supervisor named Kadokura. She still tries to keep up with her practices and team at the same time that she is a member of GUYS. She seems like the older sister of the group and tends to look after the other members a lot - George in particular. She has outstanding hearing and catches the smallest sounds from machines. This hurts the ability to race as it prevents her from pushing her machine to its limit. She is afraid of spiders. She has two younger brothers. Perhaps due to her hearing, Seiji Hokuto/Ultraman Ace was able to contact her alone in episodes 44 and 50. Marina won the motorcycle world championship after episode 50. 19 years old.
- George Ikaruga (イカルガ・ジョージ Ikaruga Jōji?) - He is a former all-star soccer player, though he broke his leg for a time and had to sit out of his games for a few years. He has skill named a shooting star shoot. At the start of the series, a doctor tells him that his knee is finally well enough for him to play soccer again. Ikaruga feels a need to live up to the image that was created for himself, that he is a celebrity and was often looked down upon by his former teammates who think that he has "sold out". He joins GUYS in order to find some form of purpose in his life. As a former soccer player, he has fast eyes and reflexes, which translate into a natural affinity for METEOR-assisted flying. He is known to mix Spanish into his Japanese sentences. He was poor at going to the sea and the space at first, although he can swim. Hideki Go/Ultraman Jack was able to contact him alone in episode 50. After retiring from his previous team, George joined a new football team after episode 50. 20 years old.
- Konomi Amagai (アマガイ・コノミ Amagai Konomi?) - She is a sweet and kind young lady, she used to be a preschool teacher before joining GUYS. Her students cried when she left, but she felt that being a part of GUYS would be the best way for her to be able to protect all of the children that she once taught. It is because of her that all of the future members of GUYS meet up in episode 1, when they try to rescue the rabbits at Konomi's daycare center. She briefly quits GUYS in episode 4 after she scolds herself for lack of valor. Mirai encouraged her, remembering how Ryu had scorned him for collateral damage after fight with Dino Zaur. She is the only member of the group who wears a mini-skirt and the only member to wears glasses (once, when Konomi dropped the glasses in the Phoenix Nest's swimming pool, Mirai used the glasses to imitate Ultraseven's transformation pose, quickly calling it a "charm"). In episode 16 she stops wearing glasses and gets contact lenses, only to put them back on when no one noticed. In general, she stays at Phoenix Nest as an operator, but goes to the front line as "handler" of the Maquette Monsters when necessary. Dan Moroboshi/Ultra Seven was able to contact her alone in episode 50. Konomi returned to her children friends in the day care school after episode 50. 18 years old.
- Teppei Kuze (クゼ・テッペイ Kuze Teppei?) - He is the heir to a fortune and is always being followed by his mother. He was a medical school student before participating in GUYS. Were he to not participate in GUYS, he would probably have become a doctor in his father's hospital. He is troubled, occasionally hampered, by his mother's worries. He participates in GUYS in order to become independent from his mother, and initially keeps it a secret from her, but she finds out after he appears on television. Although his mother opposes at first, his father's hospital is protected from Insectus by his work, and she gives him her blessing to continue on. He is knowledgeable about the older Ultramen and monsters, to the point that it is his position in GUYS. Hayata/Ultraman was able to contact him alone in episode 50. Teppei became the new doctor of his father's hospital after episode 50. 18 years old.
- Shingo Sakomizu (サコミズ・シンゴ Sakomizu Shingo?) - Commander of the new CREW GUYS, after Serizawa went missing in action. Upon assuming his position, he has reorganized GUYS with the new members. He loves coffee. He was once a member of VTOL Space who piloted experimental light speed craft. On a test run 40 years ago to Pluto, his ship was attacked by saucers before Zoffy appeared and rescued him. Although he should be well over 70 years old, the effects of traveling at light speed have greatly prolonged his aging. He has always known that Mebius and Mirai were one in the same. 40 years old.
[edit] GUYS JAPAN Staff Members
- Aide Toriyama (トリヤマ補佐官 Toriyama Hosakan?) - The leader of the Japanese branch of GUYS, he issues orders to GUYS and gets frantic with joy whenever they accomplish a mission. More or less the public face of GUYS, he is apparently the one who must answer to the news media about GUYS' actions. Gave approval for the use of METEOR until episode 4, when he handed the authority to Sakomizu. While generally portrayed as cowardly, syncophantic and bumblingly incompetent throughout the series, he gathers his resolve and stands up to Inspector Shiki when the latter demands that GUYS turn Ultraman Mebius/Hibino Mirai over.
- Secretary Aide Maru (マル補佐官秘書 Maru Hosakan Hisho?) - Toriyama's secretary, he follows Toriyama around and often corrects his speech mistakes.
- Yuki Misaki (ミサキ・ユキ Misaki Yuki?) - The acting inspector general (総監代行 Sōkan Daikō?), she reports monsters to GUYS. As with Sakomizu, little is known about her.
- Chief Maintenance Araiso (アライソ整備長 Araiso Seibichō?) The chief of the maintenance group which maintains a GUYS machine. He very prizes a pilot's life. The photograph (Jet VTOL of SSSP, Ultra Hawk 1 of UG, MAT Arrow 1 of MAT, UGM Falcon of TAC, Condor 1 of ZAT and Sky Higher of UGM can be checked) of the main force jets of the monster attack team of successive generations is decorated in his working area. So, if maintenance of a machine is not better, he is the stubborn character which stops sortie. He quarrels with Ryu who is going to sortie forcibly. He is the leading person who proposed adoption of METEOR.
[edit] GUYS OCEAN
GUYS Ocean is the aquatic branch of GUYS. They appeared in episode 38. They made their first appearance in the sub-jet, Seawinger. Their headquarters is located in the massive submarine, the Blue Whale.

He had heard rumors that Ultraman Mebius had joined CREW GUYS as a human and set out to find out who he was.

Her human form was dressed completely in white and has a reptile-like tongue. She talked in a lizard-like voice, could teleport and can move at super-speed. After she destroyed the planet of Arb, Tsurugi came to kill her. She was a bit of a coward, as she always teleported when Tsurugi attacks her. She caused Mebius much trouble. When Mebius used his Mebium Beam to destroy her, she shed her skin and became Bogal Mons. She fought both Mebius and Tsurugi in this form, and was ultimately destroyed when Tsurugi lodged his Knight Blade into her torso long enough for the energy to accumulate. The resulting explosion covered the entire island that they were on, but Mebius and a dying Tsurugi managed to escape before a force field that CREW GUYS set up earlier could trap them inside.

He uses the Mebius Brace and the call of "Mebius!" to change into his true Ultra form. When he was younger, Ultraman Taro personally taught him how to fight. He prevented Dino Zaur's attack using buildings as a shield in Episode 1. Due to this, the city was nearly destroyed in the first episode, and Ryu berated him for this. On his way to Earth, he encountered a ship that was being swallowed by the Ultra Zone. Hiroto Ban, his father and crew were in this ship. Hiroto Ban tried to help his father and crew escape, despite his best efforts, the container which held Hiroto was swallowed completely, and the Ultra Zone then disappeared.

It is unknown how powerful this attack is exactly when compared to other ultra brother's primary weapons, though it can be said that it is more powerful than the Specium Ray or Metallium Ray, having destroyed Alien Guts when a combined Specium and Wide shot did not.

Since then, he operates independent from GUYS with Serizawa acting as his host. His name comes from Ryu of CREW GUYS to the dismay of the rest of the team at first before Mirai vouches for him. After he was able to escape to Gromite, Zoffy appeared before him. Although Zoffy told him to return to the Land of Light, he refused. He stood by his desire of staying on Earth and Zoffy eventually relented. After extinguishing Salamandora in Episode 17, he gave the Knight Brace to Mebius. After he had one final talk with Ryu and GUYS, he left the Earth to go to the Land of Light. In Episode 35, he returns to the Earth in pursuit of Alien Babarue, a shape-shifting being disguised at the time as Tsurugi, but by the time he arrived, Alien Babarue had already managed to ruin Hikari's reputation. He returned to Earth with the Armor of Heroes (勇者の鎧 Yūsha no Yoroi?), an exact copy of the Armor of Vengeance, but now calls himself Ultraman Hikari in this form.
