Biography

Musashi Haruno (春野 ムサシ, Haruno Musashi) is the main protagonist of Ultraman Cosmos. Before his mother remarried, his name was Musashi Isohata (五十畑 ムサシ, Isohata Musashi).

Personality[]

"The Defense Forces... No, not just them, even everyone from Team EYES only thinks of a militaristic way to win. Disputes between forces, the disputes are always going on and on and on. If there's some other way..."

―Musashi questioning the JADF army and Team EYES' way of ending the battle with an iron fist.

Musashi is known for his pacifistic personality as he never wants to solve things in an aggressive way. However, this also leads him to protest against Team EYES and the JADF when such aggressive actions are ordered. This also lead some Team EYES members to suspect him as Ultraman Cosmos due to his gentle and caring nature. During the final fight against Chaos Header, Musashi finally defeats the evil entity by purifying him, something which even Ultraman Cosmos never thought to do.

Ultraman Cosmos: The First Contact[]

Meeting with Cosmos[]

Musashi as a young child

Musashi as a young child

Musashi Haruno was a fifth grader who dreamed of becoming an astronaut to honor his late father, Hiroyasu Isohata (五十畑 浩康, Isohata Hiroyasu), who died in a rocket accident in 1993. One night he met Cosmos after his battle with Basical, and revived him using sunlight. Cosmos then left him a blue gem which gave Musashi the ability to summon the power of the hero.

Battle Against Basical[]

During Basical's raid on the city, Musashi tried to summon the hero but he couldn't. He was forced to watch as the alien invader destroyed everything in his path.

Later on, after Basical was awoken by Shark's Jets, Musashi managed to summon the blue and silver gentle hero. Cosmos then fought Basical and both of them were evenly matched until Baltan morphed into his second form: "Neo Baltan." He was overwhelmed until he transformed into Corona Mode and gained the upper hand, managing to overpower the alien invader. The hero then used the Naybuster Beam and managed to knock the alien down. The alien realized what he had done as he just wanted to let his offspring to live on. It failed and he killed himself in grief. Just before he died, Cosmos turned back into Luna Mode and used the Luna Extract on the alien invader as his body was recovered by the Child Baltans. The military tried to kill Cosmos with their missiles, but was stopped by Musashi and his father. After finishing his battle against Basical, Cosmos left Musashi as the Earth was safe once again.

Joining forces with Cosmos[]

Musashi now 19 years old, joins a wing of SRC known as Team EYES. He goes to Kaburaya Islands to see Lidorias. As he saw that Lidorias was infected by an evil energy that were revealed to be Chaos Organisms, he goes to chase Lidorias that appeared in the city and Cosmos returned once again, joining forces with Musashi. Musashi himself transformed into Ultraman Cosmos and fought with Chaos Lidorias and managed to calm her down using the Luna Extract. Reunion With Light Both Musashi and Cosmos later would face countless memorable monsters such as Golmede, Spittle, Igomas, Chaos Bug, Mogrudon, Mienin, Gamoran and many more.

Much more tough opponents appeared when the Chaos Organism unleashed the Chaos Headers such as Iblis and Mebut to face him. Unable to face the Chaos Organism with Luna and Corona Modes, Cosmos with some help from Musashi and his friends, was able to awaken his third transformation: Eclipse Mode that achieved when Cosmos gained Courage and he used 3 of his forms to face more dangerous monsters.

Final Battle against the Chaos Header[]

After being separated from Cosmos, Musashi was rendered useless to fight Chaos Header, who had turned out to survive being hit with the Chaos Chimera and had begun terrorizing Earth as Chaos Darkness. Musashi bravely stood up to the creature, begging it to stop. His show of courage resurrected Ultraman Cosmos, who began to fight the dark monster, despite Musashi's pleas. As the Ultra was on the brink of defeat, Musashi fused with him again, transforming into Miracluna form. With the aid of Team EYES, Lidorias, Bolgils and Mogrudon, he was able to purify Chaos Header with the Luna Final, turning him into an angelic being, who left Earth.

Musashi and Cosmos then separated again, with the Ultra thanking Musashi for showing him a way to coexist with Chaos Header and calling him a true hero. Musashi begins to tear up as he thanks Cosmos for showing him true kindness, strength and courage. When he asks the giant to continue to protect monsters together, he replies that from now, Musashi will work with his friends to protect all life. Musashi requests to fly through the sky with him again, like he did as a child, but Cosmos asserts that he can already fly on his own. Ultraman Cosmos then flies away before answering whether or not they will meet again. Musashi is joined by the rest of EYES while waving goodbye. Still holding onto the Cosmo Stone, he remains confident they'll see Cosmos again. True Hero

Ultraman Cosmos 2: The Blue Planet[]

NOTE: Musashi's role varies from two different versions of the film due to Sugiura's arrest before the uncut version of the film was premiered.

Musashi Haruno movie2 1

Musashi who became an astronaut

It has been two years since Musashi retired from being a Team EYES member and now has finally achieved his dream to become an astronaut. Musashi pilots the TECCH Spinnar KS-1, nicknamed Planet 1, and went on a journey to the planet Juran. However, much to his horror, the planet appeared to be a reddish and dusty wasteland. Not only that, Parastan, the planet's protector had died. Suddenly, a flying monster burst out from the ground and fired a reddish energy ball. As it about to ram Musashi's TECCH Spinnar KS-1, Ultraman Cosmos appeared and saved him. As they dueled, Musashi found out that the monster is responsible for turning Juran into a barren wasteland via its energy beam. Cosmos destroyed the monster, causing a giant explosion and quickly rescued Musashi from the explosion. Musashi attended his childhood friend's wedding and later witnessed a mermaid. One of his friends, Tutomo, mocked him for believing in a mermaid but Mari objects to it, implied that Musashi might be talking the truth ever since his first encounter with Cosmos. As it starts to rain, Tutomo cowardly hides under the table with Mari mocking him, causing Tutomo to take a nearby soda and spraying it on Mari, starting a soda fight with his friend as they are watched again by the mermaid.

The next day, when Musashi and Mari went snorkeling, they discover a portal underwater and at the same time are ambushed by a stingray kaiju. As Musashi was about to follow Mari, he was knocked down unconscious. Later, two figures approach him. One was a man and the other a woman/mermaid that he had witnessed before. The man decide to eliminate Musashi for interfering with them but the woman objects, but it was already too late as he already fired an energy blast at Musashi. He awakens at the hospital as his friends visits him but Mari was nowhere to be seen. Then, Koji, an original member of SRC and now a captain of Team SEA approaches him as he was glad that he had survived. Musashi was taken to their base and revealed that the monster he encountered earlier was Reija, who was detected undersea a year ago.

They were interrupted by a warning where a monster named Scorpiss was entering the Earth's atmosphere. Musashi recognizes him from earlier for turning Juran into a barren wasteland and killing Parastan. Musashi was joined by Team SEA launches with their TROY AS and TROY BS. As the monster rampaged in the city, it begin to destroy a hospital that Musashi's friend resided in. Once they were about to be killed, Team SEA fires a missile, bringing it away from the hospital. Reija appears and fought the monster but only to be overpowered by the menace. Musashi exits the TROY BS and brings his friend to safety.

There, he witnesses the mermaid, now having human legs fuses with Reija, making the monster stronger but still, overpowered by Scorpiss. Musashi takes his Cosmo Stone and transforms into Ultraman Cosmos Skeleton Corona Mode. The phantom-looking Ultra rescues Reija and overpowers Scorpiss while destroying it with the Blazing Waze. However, all he had foreseen was a dream and realize that Cosmos will never return. Scorpiss retreated for a while and the mermaid reveals her name as Shau while telling Musashi that Mari is with her people.

Soon the Team SEA follows Shau and Reija to their hideout where a portal opens, leading to her people's hideout. Once arrived, they were introduced to Alien Gyashi, where their leader, Jin, holds a dislike towards humans for being selfish. Musashi encounters him earlier in a dream where he got destroyed by Jin. Mari appears and leads them to their base where she revealed that Child Baltan from 10 years ago brought her to this place.

Shau reveals that sometime ago, Sandros and his Scorpiss terrorized their planet and turned it into a wasteland. As the Alien Gyashi migrated, Scorpiss chased them and destroyed them. When Jin's crew were about to be eliminated, a being with a light silhouette destroys them and lets the remaining Gyashi flee safely. The being itself had been acknowledged as a God by their species.

A swarm of Scorpiss arose and were on their journey to Earth in seven days. Team SEA discusses this matter with the Earth Defense Forces where they agreed to have the Alien Gyashi assist them in protecting Earth from Scorpiss. Three days before the Scorpiss invasion, SRC developed a force field used to defend the Earth from the monsters. Musashi receives a call from Mari to go to Space Zone. There he found Mari unconscious and Jin begins to attack Musashi for making Shau trust humanity. However, he stops when he realizes that Musashi didn't attack him and instead never giving up on convincing him to trust humanity.

Developing a change of heart, Jin uses his power to complete the force field system, causing a giant shield to cover the Earth and protecting it from a swarm of Scorpiss. Though proven effective, a dark vortex empowered some Scorpiss as they were used to perform a kamikaze attack to destroy the shield and ease the invasion. Soon, Team EYES started to help as Musashi, their former team member also involved in this operation.

Musashi Haruno movie2 2

Musashi turns into Cosmos again

After witnessing Shau and Jin's bravery, Musashi finally regains his bravery and calls on Cosmos once again. Cosmos appears in Eclipse Mode where he demolishes the entire Scorpiss before Sandros appeared and overpower him. Another Ultraman much like Cosmos, whose the legendary God/protector of Alien Gyashi came to Earth at the end of the Scorpiss invasion. Attacking the invasion’s forerunner, Sandros, at the moment it attacked Cosmos. The Ultra knocked the monster to the side. As it recovered, he delivered some of his energy to the weakened warrior, allowing them both to take on the vile monster.

As they did so, Sandros began to unleash its black cloud, blocking out the sun. In complete darkness the pair of heroes was attacked mercilessly by its energized blades. The foolish monster, however, eventually made a mistake. Charging up its fireball exposed itself in the darkness, allowing both Cosmos and Justice to quickly fire off their Cosmium and Victorium Beams, annihilating the fiend and saving the Earth yet again. Cosmos separated from Musashi again as the Ultras leave and Jin revealed to have survived from the Scorpiss attack thanks to Reija and that their experiment finally achieved its success.
