Members
Super GUTS is a branch of TPC (Terrestrial Peaceable Consortium) and is the direct successor to GUTS.


 * Gousuke Hibiki (ヒビキ・ゴウスケHibiki Gōsuke? ): The team captain. He is loud and boisterous, often joking with his subordinates and shouting orders. At the same time, however, he is a caring leader with a good heart and good intentions for Super GUTS.
 * Shin Asuka
 * Ryo Yumimura (ユミムラ・リョウYumimura Ryō? ): The tomboy ace pilot of Super GUTS, who has a short temper and often yells at Asuka for his goof ball antics and recklessness. They have a pilot rivalry going on. However, deep down inside she likes the guy, they do like each other, which becomes quite clear toward the end. She also plays a big sister role for the less experienced Mai. Ryoh is slightly cross-eyed, which add charm for her.
 * Toshiyuki Kohda (コウダ・トシユキKōda Toshiyuki? ): The cool and slick haircut guy who is eventually promoted to Dept. Captain.
 * Mai Midorikawa (ミドリカワ・マイMidorikawa Mai? ): A cute, bubbly, loud cadet-type with little combat experience. She mostly serves as the communication person, but she has multiple crushes (baseball players, cute exploratory robots, bike racers, etc.), gets peoples' attention by saying 'neh-neh-neh,' and has the amazing ability to hide multiple items behind her back, only to whip them out in rapid succession.
 * Tsutomu Nakajima (ナカジマ・ツトム Nakajima Tsutomu? ): The pudgy technician and researcher of the Super GUTS team, often becomes panicked or overly serious.
 * Kouhei Kariya (カリヤ・コウヘイKariya Kōhei? ): An expert of shooting of the Super GUTS and is well versed in archaeology.
 * Hanejiro (ハネジローHanejirō? ): A strange alien which Asuka befriended on a mission to mysterious planet, it first helped Asuka (as Dyna) by pointing out a monster's weak spot during a battle, and was since made Super GUTS' "mascot" of sorts. Bids farewell to Super GUTS in Episode 47, but returns in the Dyna movie "Return of Hanejiro".

Gransphere; the mother of all meld monsters; attacked the Mars base. Soon, a new task squad has been created to match the threat. Super GUTS, or SGUTS, was created to defend the settlements from the new invaders. SGUTS consisted of the following members: The SGUTS is the new organization on to protect the settlements, and their first major mission began when Asuka joined the squad.
 * 1) Gousuke Hibiki: prized student of the Squad Zero Training, captian.
 * 2) Tsutomu Nakajima: The major inventor of SGUTS.

Mission 1: Mars
When SGUTS came to Mars on the mission to save the settlement from a monster attack, their attack quickly failed and Asuka was struck down by the monster: Drambia. However, they then witnessed the birth of Ultraman Dyna. After the defeat of the monster, they returned to Earth but was alerted of another Sphere attack. However, when they got there, it was already too late and they were then alarmed again when the monster Gralen appeared on Earth. They dispatched Asuka and Ryo while Hibiki, Kariya, and Nakajima dealt with the Spheres. Asuka was gunned down in space, and Ryo attacked the monster. But even when the Training Squad ZERO aided GUTS Eagle Gamma, it still wasn't enough to defeat Gralen. Finally, Ultraman Dyna returned to defeat the beast once and for all.
