Ribut is the human form of Ultraman Ribut. He first appears in Ultraman Trigger: New Generation Tiga.[1][2]
History[]
Ultraman Trigger: New Generation Tiga[]
Ultraman Ribut first appeared in this form to greet Kengo Manaka and Yuna Shizuma, following the Absolutians Tartarus and Diavolo retreating from the Ultra's sudden arrival. The Golden Threat
Ribut decided to train Kengo so that he can learn to control Glitter Trigger Eternity's power, with Yuna taking part as well so that she can learn to face her destiny as Yuzare's descendant. First, Ribut sparred with Kengo, telling him that he was out of focus. He then got the two others to dance in sync with him to get them to empty their minds. When they succeeded, Ribut knocked out Kengo and got Yuna to reawaken him using Yuzare's powers.
Kengo realized that while he was the incarnation of Trigger's light, he was also human, and stopped pushing himself so hard. After Diavolo appeared and had his energy drained, Trigger, Ribut and the Nursedessei, now in Battle Mode, fought against Diavolo. Trigger was now able to control the Eternity Core's power, unleashing several finishers successively on Diavolo. With the help of Ribut and GUTS-Select, Diavolo was defeated. Trigger performed the Cross Touch with Ribut, thanking him for his help and sending him off back to the Galaxy Rescue Force. Operation Dragon
