That´s an interesting question.Actually, Ultraman was originally conceived as a villain and was inteded to appear much sooner, in Ultra Q. His early designs had a more animal appearance but when they conceived the Ultraman series; they changed Ultra´s role turning him into a superhero. His body was changed (making it more human) because kids wouldn´t identify him as a good guy. I don´t know if this it´s official, but i think Ultraman´s debut in Ultra Q was replaced by Kemur Seijin; since he´s also a villain from outer space.
