History[]

Pre-Ultraman Orb[]

Jetta was a close friend of Naomi during their university years. His family owns a pizza shop. As a child, his father once told him, "Heroes aren't only those who do dangerous things. Even small acts can be heroic if you give your all for someone else." This shaped Jetta's belief that the world needs people who are willing to help others and stand up for the vulnerable.^{The Impostor Blues}

Jetta has a younger sister, as mentioned in conversations with Gai. He once learned how to sew so he could fix her dolls.^{A Heart That Won't Flee} After graduating, Jetta and Naomi co-founded SSP, driven by a shared interest in investigating unexplained phenomena.

Ultraman Orb[]

When Jetta and his friends first appeared, they were investigating unusual atmospheric weather patterns and were unexpectedly saved by a mysterious giant. Although thrilled by the encounter, they lacked clear video evidence to prove the giant's existence. Later, they met Jugglus Juggler, who told them the giant's name was Ultraman Orb. They soon witnessed Orb's first battle against Maga-Basser and afterward had their first meeting with Gai.^{The Sunset Wanderer}

As monster appearances became more frequent, Jetta began live-streaming Orb's battles with his camera. However, the early broadcasts were chaotic, leading to negative viewer feedback. Many of his recordings also failed to capture any footage due to his inexperience. Driven by his admiration for heroes, Jetta remained curious about Orb's true identity. He suspected Orb might be human and began investigating. During one case, he believed a man named Ryuji Baba was Orb and befriended him.

Unaware that Baba was actually an Alien Babarue Babaryu from the Planet Invasion Union, Jetta continued to trust him. After learning the truth, Jetta encouraged Baba to face Kelbim. Following Orb's intervention, they defeated Kelbim together, and Jetta and Baba went their separate ways.^{The Impostor Blues}

Later, Jetta suspected Ittetsu Shibukawa of being Orb, noticing that Shibukawa always vanished when Orb appeared.^{Cleanup of the Heart} During another incident, a strange robot landed in the yard of Kofune Manufacturing. After inspecting it, Jetta concluded it was a righteous machine and named it Galactron. With approval from VTL and Shibukawa, the workers began analyzing it.^{Justice Out of Control}

Jetta, Shin and Kofune witness the battle of Ultraman Orb and Galactron.

The next day, Galactron's systems malfunctioned and quickly rebooted, leading it to abduct Naomi and attack the factory. To rescue her, Jetta and the others pursued Galactron across the countryside. When Orb transformed into Thunder Breastar and began attacking fiercely, Jetta panicked, fearing for Naomi's safety inside the robot. His desperate shouting eventually brought Orb back to his senses. However, Galactron had already counterattacked, forcing Orb to retaliate and destroy it. Naomi was seriously injured and hospitalized, leaving Jetta deeply disappointed in Orb.^{Never Say Never}

As public opinion turned against Orb, Jetta recalled Shibukawa's words: "To protect something, you must be willing to sacrifice something." Naomi's continued faith in Orb also made Jetta reflect on the idea that light and darkness can coexist within justice. Regaining trust in Orb, he helped capture Orb's transformation into Orb Origin through a live broadcast, restoring public support. SSP's efforts began to gain recognition.^{The Holy Sword, Restored}

As Magatano-Orochi was about to revive and threaten the world, Jetta and Shin visited Mrs. Kishine, who possessed the original copy of the "Pacific Records," hoping to find clues to defeat the monster. They obtained the document, but were caught in the spreading destruction and trapped under debris with SSP-7 as they tried to leave.^{The Giga Lord Monster Strikes Back}

Believing they might not survive, they recorded farewell messages using a camera. In doing so, they unintentionally revealed that the Pacific Records was a prophetic book. They were later rescued by Shibukawa. After identifying a method to defeat Magatano-Orochi, they contacted VTL for assistance in the battle involving Ultraman Orb, Jugglus Juggler, and the monster.

In the final episode, Jetta and the rest of SSP witnessed Gai's departure.^{The Wandering Sun}

Ultraman Orb The Movie: Let Me Borrow the Power of Bonds![]

With peace restored and the Lord Monster threat gone, the SSP came into possession of the "X Devizer" and met Ultraman X. They also learned of the disappearance of Daichi Oozora, a human from another universe. Without official permission, the team began putting up missing-person flyers for Daichi around the city.

Soon after, they became targets of an alien army sent by Murnau and were placed in grave danger. Gai returned just in time to save them. During their search for Daichi, they entered Murnau's mansion, where they got lost and were attacked by Alien Guts. With help from Jugglus Juggler, they found Daichi and also rescued Gai, who had been captured.

Later, when X and Orb were defeated by Darebolic, causing Orb to revert to Gai's human form, Jetta discovered that Gai was Orb. As Darebolic approached, the SSP members chose to protect Gai, accepting him as one of their own. They then witnessed Ginga, Victory, and X lend their powers to Gai, allowing him to become Orb Trinity.

However, the SSP members were soon controlled by Alien Guts. With Shibukawa's arrival, they managed to defeat the aliens. Together with Jugglus Juggler, they threw the Dark Ring into the alternate dimension created by Bullton, restoring Ginga, Victory, and X. After the battle, Jetta and the team bid farewell to Gai as he set off on a new journey.^{Ultraman Orb The Movie: Let Me Borrow the Power of Bonds!}
