Conception

Design

From the booklet provided with the Blu-ray release of Ultra Fight Orb, Reibatos was an unused Kaiju suit made under Ichiro Itano (base design) and Yasushi Torisawa, depicted as "a humanoid enemy with the ability to resurrect the dead". According to a certain source, the cancelled show which was meant to be Reibatos' original debut was the successor for the 2004 Ultra N Project film ULTRAMAN called ULTRAMAN2: requiem, with Zett (the antagonist from the second stage show of Ultraman Festival) was believed to be based on the same archetype. True to the sequel's title, Reibatos' character name for the film, should it have been made, was to be Requiem .

Etymology

Reibatos's name comes from Reionics and Barbatos, one of the Dukes of Hell that ruled over thirty legions of demons.

History

Ultra Fight Orb

As a descendant of the Reionics, Reibatos revived monsters at his disposal, first reviving Demaaga on Earth and Juda Spectre and Mecha Gomora on Planet Yomi for Orb and Zero to deal with. After both Ultras assemble in said planet, he made himself known and revived Vict Lugiel, King Joe, Birdon, Gudon, Twin Tail, and Hyper Zetton as distractions before leaving.

Orb pursued him after leaving his monsters to Zero and the Inter Galactic Defense Force members but lost track of him when he quickly regenerated. Simply leaving a clue to Orb, Reibatos arrived on the Monster Graveyard to fix the Giga Battlenizer and sent Tyrant to deal with Zoffy and Ultraman Jack. While trying to revive the deceased monsters, Orb and Zero pursued him in his dimension after dealing with his Tyrant. Knowing that he is able to regenerate instantly, Orb launches an all-out attack before finishing him with Emerium Slugger Spacium. He was presumed by the Ultras to have died but regenerates in a battered form.

"I won't forgive you for this Ultra Warriors! Ujuika Reegamiyo! I'll destroy everything... Awaken, the original owner of Giga Battlenizer, Ultraman Belial! W-Why? Could it be, Belial is still alive? T-This aura... you're..."

―Reibatos' death.

Not content on giving up, Reibatos tried to use the last of his energy to revive Ultraman Belial but discovers that Belial was somehow alive. It was then where Belial's son Ultraman Geed seemingly appeared (to which Reibatos sensed "something off") and killed Reibatos in an instant. ^{Ultra Fight Orb}

Ultraman Geed

Belial kills Reibatos

In a twisted turn of events, it is revealed that Ultraman Belial himself had killed Reibatos, instead of Ultraman Geed. Reibatos had simply "seen into the future" and hallucinated that Geed was in Belial's place at that moment as a result. ^{The Symbol of Geed}

Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Absolute Conspiracy

Absolute Tartarus traveled through time to save Reibatos from his death, taking him into Narak. Reibatos then joined Tartarus' army as part of his Parallel Isotopes.

In the past, Reibatos resurrected Alien Bat after the latter's defeat at the hands of Ultraman Saga. Reibatos traveled to Planet Feed with Absolute Tartarus, where he was commanded by Tartarus to revive a Gymaira to interfere with Neos, Seven 21 and 80's fight against Leugocyte. ^{Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Absolute Conspiracy}

Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Destined Crossroad

Reibatos continued to serve as part of Tartarus' army. He was tasked with reviving Gina Spectre at one point after her brothers had perished previously. Later on, he joined Gina, Tartarus and Alien Bat at the Monster Graveyard to collect the Devil Splinter that resided there, but were met with opposition. Reibatos was first confronted with Ultraman Zearth, Ultraman Nice and Ultraman Boy, who did not pose much of a threat at first, but eventually were somewhat formidable. His opposition then shifted to Ultraman X and his old rival Orb, where he was easily beaten down.

In a last ditch effort, Tartarus stole the New Generation Heroes' collected Devil Splinters, giving them to Reibatos to enhance his power, which he used to summon the spirits of Mold and Juda, and reconstruct the Giga Battlenizer once again. After using it to have the spirits be absorbed into Gina's body to form Gua Spectre, Reibatos' body could not contain the power of the Devil Splinters inside him and faded away, with Tartarus mocking him and taking the Giga Battlenizer. ^{Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Destined Crossroad}

Ultraman Regulos: First Mission

Main article: Alien Reiblood#Ultraman Regulos: First Mission

What was left of Reibatos after succumbing to the power of the Devil Splinters was gathered up and reconstructed by an Alien Zarab on Planet Maijii, where it was used by Alien Reiblood himself as a new body. Reibatos' body was destroyed during the final battle, though Reiblood managed to escape.^{Ultraman Regulos: First Mission}

Powers and Weapons

• Portal: Reibatos can travel to other places using a portal.
• Flight: Reibatos can flight in moderate speed.
• Reibatos Shoot : Reibatos can shoot a purple energy bullet. They are strong enough to revert Orb Trinity to Orb Origin, with just two shots. In an original clip of Ultraman Orb: The Chronicle, Reibatos was also shown firing a more condensed, yellowish energy ball version of this attack towards Orb Emerium Slugger.
  • Barrier: Prior to firing, the energy of the Reibatos Shoot can be used to conjure a purple barrier, which can deflect attacks such as the Sparion Ray.
• Regeneration: Due to his nature as a ghost, he is able of reforming himself from any damage. However, he does have a limit on how much he can reform.
• Revival/Restoration: By chanting Ujuika Reegamiyo , Reibatos has the ability to revive a monster. This can be used on wandering monster spirits or the monster spirits stored within his chest crystals. Due to the organic nature of Battlenizers, it was also used to restore the Giga Battlenizer. However, it should be noted that the monsters he revives have no "life energy".
• Giga Battlenizer : The original weapon of Ultraman Belial, Reibatos repaired this in hopes of re-engineering the former's failed plan.
  • Monsload : As its true purpose, Reibatos is able to contain, release and manipulate 100 monsters at once. By combining with his revival power, he is able to recreate Tyrant from deceased spirits.
    • 100 Monsload : A massive Monsload version, similar to his predecessor.
  • Energy Beam: A purple energy beam that is shot from his Giga Battlenizer. This attack is presumably an improved variant of Belial Genothunder.
  • Empowerment: According to Reibatos, the Giga Battlenizer can empower his usual abilities. This was shown he was able to revive an entire army of monsters in the Monster Graveyard, whereas his limit was at least six monsters at a time.
  • Fusion: Reibatos can fuse the souls of various creatures together. He performed this on Gina Spectre using the souls of her brothers Mold and Juda to revive Gua Spectre.
• Foresight: Reibatos has the ability to see into the future, which is how he saw Geed killing him instead of Belial.
