History[]
Ultraman 80[]
Super's family runs a supermarket, and after his mother died, he lived with his father and sister Hiroko.
When Super first appeared, he and the other students were first-year students in Class 1-E, receiving instruction from their new teacher, Takeshi. However, because Takeshi often displayed careless, innocent, and eccentric behavior, the students were skeptical of him.Ultraman Teacher
In addition, a classmate of Super's, Tsukamoto, refused to attend school because his friend had been accepted to a private high school. Takeshi promised to bring him back to school. Super and others suggested using Takeshi's position as a bet. If Takeshi was late or failed to keep his promise again, he would have to leave the school.
Later, when Tsukamoto mustered the courage to return to school, he protected Takeshi, who had protected him before, by stopping other students from entering the classroom. When they learned of Takeshi's fearless sacrifice to save Tsukamoto, the students' attitudes changed. They ultimately voluntarily wished that Takeshi would not resign and stay at the school.The Teacher's Secret
After a period of time, Super received unsettling news: his sister Hiroko was getting married in three days. Their father began proposing the idea of remarriage, hoping to provide a sense of security for Hiroko's marriage. However, this proposal angered and dissatisfied Super. He felt as if he and his family were being replaced one after another, which left him deeply disappointed and angry.
With Takeshi's help, Super reconciles with his father.
However, the reality was quite different. Super's father didn't actually intend to remarry; he was only pretending to accept the idea, secretly concerned about his children's future. Unfortunately, his pretense prevented him from realizing the turmoil and unease brewing within Super's heart.
Unable to accept the changes in his life, Super started skipping school for no reason and would skate alone in the streets to escape reality. However, he was caught by Takeshi, who came to urge him to attend classes, and Takeshi scolded him. In this situation, Super eventually began to entertain thoughts of hoping for monsters to come and destroy the world, hoping that it would disrupt the school and the family, returning everything to how it used to be.
Later on, Super became even more determined to run away from home. However, during the Zandrias disaster, Takeshi and his father found him. Throughout this process, Super finally understood his father's true intentions, realizing that his father had always been concerned about their future. This resolved the conflicts between father and son, leading to reconciliation and restoring their relationship.
Three days later, when Super attended his sister's wedding, he hired Fashion to impersonate his girlfriend in order to reassure his sister. The purpose of this was to show his sister that he had grown and matured.For the Love of the Sky
As the series progressed, Super and the other three students discovered that teacher Aihara had feelings for Takeshi and they tried hard to facilitate a relationship between them. Due to the appearance of Gabishale, Takeshi ended up standing them up. Nevertheless, the four students did not give up. They tried to sabotage Aihara's blind date, but failed.Airport Emergency
As more and more monsters appeared, Takeshi's mission as a member of UGM became increasingly important. He eventually had to devote all his time and energy to the fight and resigned from his teaching job. As a result, Super did not appear in the subsequent series.
Ultraman Mebius[]
After Ultraman 80 left Earth for 26 years, Minus Energy resurfaced, putting Earth in danger once again. Super, who is now an adult and took over the family-run supermarket. has always had feelings of nostalgia and gratitude towards his youth and experiences interacting with Takeshi.
When he learned that Sakuragaoka Middle School would also merge with other schools and be closed due to a decline in the birthrate, and the school building would soon be demolished, When he reunites with Tsukamoto and Rakugo, the three of them decide to have a class reunion before the school closes.
When Ultraman 80 successfully defeated Hoe in battle and attempted to leave Earth, Super and other students tried their best to shout out their current situations to 80 and created a banner together that said "Thank you for the memories, Teacher Takeshi" to express their gratitude towards him.
After the students sang "Aogeba Tōtoshi," Ultraman 80 unexpectedly attended the alumni association as Takeshi and spent a brief time with his former students..Teacher's Memories
