History
Ultraman Zero The Movie: Super Deciding Fight! The Belial Galactic Empire
Although Zero debuted in the previous movie, it was during the crisis of Belial Galactic Empire that this device debuted, which he used to return to his true form after possessing a human host named Run. After his second transformation and separation from Nao and Emerana, Run/Zero was captured by Belial while the tyrant kept the Zero Eye until Mirror Knight frees Run for him to regain the device and transforms again to put an end to Belial's empire.
Ultraman Saga
When bounded to Nozomu Taiga as a host, the human was reluctant to transform, only being forced into it when Zero telekinetically slapped the Ultra Zero Eye onto the youth's face. Since the transformation was forced, his height is rendered to a mere height of 5 meters.
After Taiga regains his faith in Ultramen, he had properly transformed with said device.
Ultraman Geed
At some point in unknown time, Zero had acquired the upgraded version of Ultra Zero Eye: Ultra Zero Eye NEO.
Forms and usages
The Ultra Zero Eye possess two forms, Zero Eye Mode and Gun Mode.
Zero Eye Mode
The Zero Eye Mode is the Ultra Zero Eye's original form. The transformation steps can be made by either having the host wearing it on their face or having the Ultraman himself controlling the Zero Eye with telekinesis, therefore creating a forced transformation.
Once they don it, the ribbons of light and the Zero Sluggers appear with Zero's body materializing on the human host's before the Zero Sluggers attach and appear. During Taiga's second and final transformation as Zero, he jumps in mid-air and is surrounded by multiple light streams. At that time, Zero's three illusory images merge with him to complete the transformation.
