History

Ultraman 80

Glovusk was one of the many Minus Energy monsters that plagued the world in Ultraman 80’s era. It originated from ultraviolet rays, which were absorbed into a baseball glove due to the sadness and anger of a young man named Masashi Tamai, who was frustrated with his baseball performance. The ultraviolet rays converted into Minus Energy, creating an aurora that disrupted electronics in the area. However, this aura vanished as mysteriously as it had appeared.

Masashi, after experiencing a major failure in baseball, yelled at his glove to vent his frustrations. Sensing his anger, the negative energy descended from the sky and merged with the glove, forming the bizarre monster Glovusk. The demonic glove approached the boy with evil laughter, chasing him around and shocking him when he attempted to touch it. When Masashi tried to attack it with a stick, the creature destroyed it with another shock.

Takeshi Yamato and one of his allies arrived on the scene and scanned Glovusk, discovering it was filled with Minus Energy. The creature watched them before fleeing, mocking them from a tree limb. Yamato attempted to shoot it, but his efforts were ineffective. The bizarre creature then flew off and vanished. UGM quickly took action to prevent Glovusk from causing more trouble. The monster reverted to its glove form to hide, only to be found by the boy’s father. When the father put on the glove, it transformed and attacked him, pulling him around. Yamato and Ryoko Hoshi arrived, and Ryoko used a beam from her hand to force the creature off.

Glovusk ran from the two Ultras in human form before finally turning to confront them. Ryoko tried her beam again, but this time, Glovusk absorbed it and grew to giant size, becoming a towering Kaiju and starting to destroy the city. The military's attempts to stop the monster were futile, as Glovusk merely blew them away with his energy beams. After sunset, the negative monster vanished again.

UGM quickly resumed their search, and Yamato managed to locate Glovusk, realizing it was invisible. Yamato transformed into Ultraman 80, making the creature visible and attacking it with a series of strikes. However, nothing seemed to affect Glovusk. The monster used its five limbs to fight, crawling across the ground and toying with the hero. Ultraman 80 used his Ultra Soccer Ball to knock Glovusk down, but the creature continued its attack until Ryoko distracted it with her energy ray.

80 chased Glovusk through the air, finally forcing it down and picking it up. He spun Glovusk around and hurled it, then grabbed one of its arms and threw it overhead to the ground. Ultraman 80 then used a variant of the Succium Beam to destroy the negative energy within the beast, reverting it back into a harmless glove. The glove was returned to Masashi.
