Ultraman Ruebe

Ultraman Ruebe (ウルトラマンルーブ) is the titular Ultra of Ultraman R/B, debuting in episode 15. He is formed from the fusion of Ultraman Rosso and Ultraman Blu.

Ultraman R/B
During Grigio King's second attack, Ultraman Rosso and Ultraman Blu attempt to defeat the monster but even their Flame-Aqua Hybrid Shoot was ineffective against its tough hide. The brothers once again try to use the Ultraman and Belial Crystals, to no avail, until Asahi Minato reminds her brothers that they can do anything when they're together. WIth this encouragement, they are finally able to use the powers of the two crystals, which merges with their other crystals and spawns the Kiwami Crystal, used to transform into Ultraman Ruebe. Ruebe easily defeats Grigio King.

Transformation
"Enshrined by extremity! The golden universe!!"

- Ruebe's transformation catchphrase

The sequence begins as both brothers take the Ultraman and Belial Crystals respectively, flip out the horns of the crystal and then insert the crystal as their R/B Gyro opens. The Gyros are thrust forward and the handles are pulled thrice. This causes both crystals to merge along with the Taro, Ginga, Tiga and Victory Crystals as well to form the Kiwami Crystal.

Katsumi flips all the front horns of Kiwami Crystal while Isami stands by his side, revealing its Kanji and insert it to his Gyro. He then thrusts the Gyro forward and pulls the handles one last time and places the Gyro on his chest, before the two siblings transforms into Ruebe and the Ultra emerges with his left hand facing the screen.

Abilities

 * Strength: Ruebe is naturally strong, able to physically hurt Grigio King in hand-to-hand combat.
 * Acceleration: Ruebe is able to accelerate to high speeds, used in conjunction with his Rube Kourin to land a succession of slashes.

Weapons

 * Ruebe Kourin (ルーブコウリン): Ruebe's personal weapon, accessed through the use of the Kiwami Crystal. It is summoned from the golden ring around his Color Timer.
 * Buzzsaw Slash: The blades on the Ruebe Kourin rotate and act as a buzzsaw cutter.
 * Dashing Slash: Accelerating to high speeds, Ruebe lands multiple slashes on the opponent.
 * Vortex Buster (ボルテックバスター): A seemingly less powerful variant of Ruebe Vortex Buster. It is performed by inserting any R/B Crystal on the weapon.
