ウルトラマンレオ
Ultraman Leo is the 7th Ultraman series. Set in an era of deadly monster attacks, it is probably one of the darkest Ultraman series, where the defense team members are often killed and replaced. This series features the first Ultraman who does not come from Nebula M78.
April 12, 1974 - March 28, 1975 (51 episodes)
Plot
Ootori Gen is a gymnastics teacher, loved by many of his students and colleagues. However, what they do not know about him is that Gen is actually Ultraman Leo, who has been living on Earth ever since his home planet, Nebula L77, was destroyed.
Moroboshi Dan, who is UltraSeven, is the captain of the Monster Attacking Crew, or MAC, on Earth. On that fateful day, Seven tries to fight two powerful kaiju, together with their master Alien Magma, the very one who destroyed Leo's home planet. Leo manages to come to Seven's rescue in time to save his life, but Seven's leg had been badly twisted.
With UltraSeven severely injured and unable to transform, Leo must defend his second home planet from being destroyed, and not let it suffer the same fate.
