History
Ultraseven
Dallie was a parasitic alien monster that travelled to earth and found refuge inside a flower pedal. When a girl named Kaori sniffed the flower, Dallie was sucked into her nostril and from there began to take control of her. As the UG did some research and found out that the microscopic Dallie was inside of Kaori, Dallie used Kaori's body to sporadically enter a trance-like state in her sleep to search for other humans that share the same blood type as Kaori in order to feed on it. Amagi was one of them, and Dallie used Kaori's affection to earn his trust, only for the Ultra Guard to force Kaori into an unconscious state until an antidote could be developed to stop Dallie from inside Kaori.
Rather than wait, Dan Moroboshi transformed into Ultraseven and shrunk himself down to a microscopic size and entered Kaori himself through her nostril. Upon entering her body, Ultraseven found Dallie cling to a wall of her flesh and sipping on Kaori's blood. Ultraseven tried to stop the parasite quickly with its Emerium Beam, but all it did was release Dallie from its host and sent Dallie on the offense. After a quick stare down with Ultraseven, Dallie reattached itself to Kaori's flesh and coated Ultraseven with a white mist attack, which immobilized Ultraseven and making the battle seem one sided. Fortunately the scientists of the Ultra Guard finished the antidote, and injected into Kaori, severely weakening Dallie. With the opportunity, Ultraseven used his Ultra Bubble to melt Dallie into a pile of foam. With Dallie dead, Kaori was freed from the parasite's control. The Flower where the Devil Dwells
Trivia
- Suit actor: Tetsuo Yamamura
- Dallie's high pitched screech is shared with the Giant Sea Serpent from King Kong Escapes.
- These screeches would later be used and slowed down for the Return of Ultraman monster, Kingsaurus III.
- The Cinar dub referred to him as the Antroxim-90 virus.
- In the middle-to-late 1990s, footage of Dallie was used for the TNT, TBS and Cartoon Network show Cartoon Planet. Dallie's footage was used to depict an alien in the recurring sketch entitled 'Zorak's Nuggets of Joy' in which Zorak would recite an anecdote from his past or a simple fact of life that he enjoys. In his featured segment, he was called Gandorf the Mad Grinder, under whom Zorak studied in becoming a super-villain. Gandorf, as Zorak's mentor, kept referring to Zorak as little 'Grasshopper'.
- Despite being classified as "Bacteria," Dallie's size and body structure would better suit the monster as being a parasite.
Ultraman Regulos: First Mission
Dallie was revived, and substantially enlarged, alongside Black King, Gandar, and Star Bem Gyeron by Alien Reiblood, who had possessed Reibatos' body, to fight Ultraman Regulos. Soon after, a group of Ultras arrived to provide back up, with Ultraman Powered fighting Dallie. Eventually, Dallie was destroyed by Powered's Powered Slash. Ultraman Regulos: First Mission
Trivia
- Dallie's appearance was reused from a suit used for stage shows.
